Asked to defend Flaherty, AG’s office plans interviews

By Hillary Borrud The Bulletin

The Oregon Department of Justice plans to interview Deschutes County employees and officials as part of a routine process to determine whether to defend District Attorney Patrick Flaherty against a lawsuit filed earlier this month by three former prosecutors whom Flaherty fired.

The interviews could take place later this week, although the Department of Justice has not informed the county which em-

ployees and officials it wants to interview, Deschutes County Legal Counsel Mark Pilliod said Monday.

An attorney for the Department of Justice told the county that Flaherty had asked the department to represent him, Pilliod said.

Neither Flaherty nor the DOJ could be reached for comment Monday.

Meanwhile, Deschutes County is in the process of hiring outside attorneys to defend against the lawsuit.

Bend woman accused of molesting autistic son Deschutes County District Attorney Patrick Flaherty has asked the state Department of Justice to defend him in a lawsuit by former deputy district attorneys.

By Nick Grube The Bulletin

A 48-year-old Bend woman has been indicted on charges alleging she molested her 8-year-old autistic son while allowing a Michigan man she met through an online dating site to watch a live stream through a webcam.

The woman allegedly performed the sex acts on her son at the behest of the Steven Demink, 42, who had identified himself as a trained psychologist and convinced her it would be a good way to teach the boy about sex.

The woman was arrested in January by the

Marvels, loss swirl in wake of tornadoes

‘A nightmare of limbo’ for Meyer family

By Kim Severson New York Times News Service

ASKEWVILLE, N.C. — For all the deaths and broken bones and flattened houses, there were still some wonders of good fortune packed into the 10 minutes it took for the last of a great roar of tornadoes to chew through this rural corner of the state.

There was Glen White, 24, who found the strength to push up a wall that had fallen on five residents of a group home. There was the married couple who were thrown into their backyard as the storm exploded their home.

They landed close enough, battered and bruised, to hold hands.

And there was Molly, a graying donkey who for years has starred in the town Christmas pageant. People say they saw her lifted into the funnel cloud when the storm hit Saturday night.

They thought she was a goner.

But Sunday morning, her owner, Jake Dunlow, 75, found her on her back in a ditch about 300 feet away. A day later, she was grazing in her own pasture, oblivious to the splinters of seven mobile homes all around her.

Yes, 11 people died in those dark and deafening 10 minutes.

Dozens were hurt, and homes were destroyed.

As people picked through the mess and showed up with water and fried chicken at temporary shelters Monday, everyone seemed to marvel that a milewide tornado that blew through this land of peanut fields and chicken houses with 165-mph winds didn’t do worse.

Bend Police Department as a result of an Immigration and Customs Enforcement investigation of Demink.

That agency believes she is just one of at least seven women across the country whom Demink directed to sexually assault their children from 2009 to 2010. At Demink’s request, the women sent him photos and videos of their abuse via the Internet.

To protect the identities of their victims, whose ages range from 3 to 15, The Bulletin has decided not to name any of the women.

With Sandy Meyer’s body still missing, apparent murder-suicide baffles friends, family

By Sheila G. Miller • The Bulletin

Sandy and John Meyer, shown on their wedding day in May 1997, moved from California to Bend in 2001.

In March, Sandy Meyer was reported missing; John Meyer committed suicide a week later, and Bend Police now consider the case a murdersuicide.

But family and friends say they can’t rest until they find Sandy Meyer’s body.

PALO ALTO, Calif. —

O

n a quiet side street here two weeks ago, children walked home from school in the warm air. It was, in most respects, a typical spring day. But parked in front of Dave Conde’s small home

was a maroon Volkswagen Touareg with Oregon plates.

It’s the car Conde’s mother, Sandy Meyer, was last seen driving before she disappeared more than a month ago. It was found abandoned March 10 in an Old Mill parking lot. In the weeks since, Bend police have called the 72-year-old’s disappearance the result of an apparent murder.

Sandy’s husband, 71-year-old John Meyer, committed suicide a week after reporting her missing. Since then, police have revealed gruesome details in the case: a substantial amount of Sandy’s blood found in heating ducts between the kitchen and the dining nook at the Meyers’ home, the orange purse that John said she was carrying when she left home hidden underneath the house.

But while police believe her husband murdered Sandy, her body is still missing, as is the answer to a question gnawing at Conde and other family and her friends: Why? “We’re waiting for the bomb to drop.

What secret is there that somehow fueled something so inexplicable?” Dave Conde said. “None of this makes sense.”

‘We couldn’t want for a better mom’ By all accounts, Sandy was a kind, sweet person who worked hard to give her sons, Dave and Chris, a good life. Born in Williamsport, Pa., and raised on the East Coast, she became a flight attendant as a young woman. Her parents moved to California, and she joined them there around the time her first son, Chris Pries, now 47, was born.

She was briefly married to her son Dave Conde’s father. Conde, now 42, said they divorced when he was still an infant.

From then on, Conde said, Sandy devoted herself to her boys, often working two jobs to support the family.

Mary Grady sits in a neighbor’s yard in Askewville, N.C., on Sunday. Her home was destroyed.

The other day, Paul Simon was rehearsing a favorite song: his own “Darling Lorraine,” about a love that starts hot but turns very cold. He found himself thinking about a three-note rhythmic

pattern near the end, where Lorraine (spoiler alert) gets sick and dies.

“The song has that triplet going on underneath that pushes it along, and at a certain point I wanted it to stop because the story suddenly turns very serious,” Simon said in an interview.

In tough times, thrift stores boom

By Lisa Gutierrez McClatchy-Tribune News Service

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — When Kansas City preschool teacher Elizabeth Eastburn walked down the aisle last April she wore an $800 wedding gown from a major bridal retailer. Only she didn’t pay $800 for it.

She paid $15 for the never-worn dress at a thrift store.

With money tight these days, this is Eastburn’s new way to shop.

“I’ll go to thrift stores first,” she said. “You can find anything, anytime. It’s like a garage sale inside.”

So on a recent day off from school, with book shelves and exercise pants on her shopping list, Eastburn wandered the aisles of Hillcrest Thrift Shop, one of several stores changing their ways to attract, and keep, new customers like Eastburn.

With its Le Boutique (sequined evening gowns for $15) and sporting goods department ($3 for a Royals T-shirt), the store is one of her favorite stops. Manager Lou Warner couldn’t be happier.

“We’re going gangbusters,” he said of business. “It’s the economic times the way they are. People are just needing to find things cheaper.”

And thrift stores are thriving.

Members of the Association of Resale Professionals, which represents nearly 1,000 consignment and thrift stores, reported that net sales increased 12.7 percent in 2009 from 2008, trouncing overall retail sales that declined 7.3 percent over that time.

“People are so distressed right now,” said the group’s president, Kitty Boyce, who runs a shop in Rochester, Ill. “A family with a limited income has to spend more on gas and food, and they have less money to spend on clothing and housing and everything else.”

In the Hillcrest store, more than 90,000 transactions last year boosted sales 55 percent over 2009. It has been so successful that its nonprofit parent, a ministry for the homeless called Hillcrest Transitional Housing, plans to model two new stores after it.

As Americans become increasingly comfortable with and interested in buying “used,” thrift stores are stepping up their game.

Stores are being remodeled and redesigned with traditional retail details — think mall-bright lighting, dressing rooms, shopping carts, public rest rooms.

If you’re shopping at the Hillcrest store on the right day, you might even get a free cookie.

“We want to compete. We want people to see that we are an avenue that they can use and they don’t have to deal with the image of dirty, smelly thrift stores,” said Teri Mairet, manager of Synergy in Style thrift store in Gladstone, Mo. The story is run by Synergy Services, which helps abused women and children.

Synergy and other thrifts have launched marketing efforts too, emphasizing the eco-friendly, reuse-recycle nature of buying secondhand and, in the case of char-

Kelli Jones shops with her mother, Yvonne Jones, at Hillcrest Thrift Shop in Kansas City, Mo. With the economy slow to recover, thrift stores are now starting to resemble regular retail locations. ity thrift stores, what the money is being used for. Many now are using Facebook and Twitter to tell customers about in-store specials, daily merchandise offerings, even drawings for prizes.

And did you hear?

It’s cool to shop at the Salvation Army.

Or so says a new TV ad campaign the Salvation Army will launch in Kansas City in the coming weeks.

Sgt. Troy Barker, a self-described “thrift-store geek,” was transferred to Kansas City from Detroit more than a year ago to help rebrand the organization’s local stores. One of the newest opened last September in an 18,000-square-foot renovated furniture store in Belton, Mo. But the crown jewel of Barker’s efforts will be a new, $2.2 million Salvation Army “superstore” in a former Comp USA building in Overland Park, Kan. The store is slated to open in about three months. “We don’t even call ourselves thrift stores; we call them family stores. Because thrift to me is a 5,000-square-foot store, poorly lit, musty smelling, for lowincome people,” Barker said.

“We look at it as a retail adventure now.”

As part of its own rebranding project, Goodwill of Western Missouri and Eastern Kansas has remodeled five of its Kansas City area stores since last April, with

five more on tap for makeovers this year. Most recently it remodeled its 20,000-square-foot store in Olathe, Kan., a former Hastings bookstore.

“That was a really large Goodwill store for us,” said J. Stuart Hoffman, vice president of marketing and development. “We reduced the size of the sales floor so it didn’t look so daunting. We repainted it. We pulled up the old carpet and redid the floor, and reorganized the merchandise itself. ... It looks much, much cleaner in there.”

Walk into the store and you can see all the way from the front to the back, past orderly rows of $5.99 jeans and $4.99 women’s blazers toward 49-cent drinking glasses and other housewares arranged by category on metal display shelves at the back of the store. Books are lined up libraryperfect; it’s one employee’s job to keep them so.

Maria Rayas of Kansas City was impressed with the store as she, her sister and niece recently hunted for church clothes. Rayas and her family moved to Kansas City last year when their home repair business dried up in Los Angeles.

“It’s a nice store. There’s a lot here,” she said, pushing a cart loaded with skirts and blouses and dresses to try on. “What (people) don’t need, it’s good for us.”

Since reopening in early Janu-

ary, the Olathe store’s sales have increased about 30 percent, Hoffman said.

There’s no typical thrift-store shopper anymore, say managers who are selling to young people buying clothes for job interviews, displaced workers buying clothes for their new job, families and seniors — busloads of whom pour into the Hillcrest store on the weekly Seniors Day. “People, I think, are getting smart in the economy,” said Synergy in Style manager Mairet.

“And telling their neighbor, ‘Hey, look what I got. Guess how much I paid.’ ” Leann Bailey bought a house last spring with her husband in Overland Park. Now they have a house but little money left to buy the stuff that goes in it. “But I still want it to feel like home,” she said.

Needing a lamp for a bedside table, the substitute teacher checked out the latest arrivals at Blessings Abound, a thrift shop around the corner from her house.

She didn’t find the lamp, but did buy a bedskirt and a green throw pillow embroidered with a white “B.” Total bill: $7.

Blessings Abound is operated

by Metro Lutheran Ministry, which provides services for the homeless and others. Like Goodwill and the Salvation Army, this store, thanks to a small army of volunteers, is putting on a new face.

“When you walk in the store, we want people to say ‘This doesn’t look like a thrift store. It doesn’t smell like a thrift store,’ ” said the store’s director of operations, Deborah Napoli. “We don’t put out junk.”

With a no-junk policy catching on, thrift stores are finding other uses for donated items that don’t make the final cut — passing them on to homeless shelters and overseas charities, and selling clothing to be used for rags, for instance.

In upgrading its image, the Salvation Army is changing its distribution process while placing new stores in more affluent neighborhoods.

“In the old process, the Salvation Army and a lot of your thrift store agencies would receive donations, take them to a central warehouse, sort it, price it and you never knew what you got,” said the Salvation Army’s Barker.

“So somebody in Overland Park could donate something and it would end up in Independence.”

As the organization begins closing smaller stores and replacing them with new superstores, “everything that comes into the store stays right there,” he said.

“So now it’s your neighbor’s stuff.

It’s nice stuff.”

He can’t wait to show off the Salvation Army’s new way of doing thrift in the new Overland Park store.

“I believe the old saying, ‘You’ve got about three to eight seconds to make an impression,’ ” he said.

“And when I have a customer walk in, I want them to go, ‘Wow, wow, wow.’ ”

Best Buy to slim down stores, expand offerings

By David Phelps Star Tribune (Minneapolis)

MINNEAPOLIS — In an about-face from its big-box strategy of the past decade, Best Buy said Thursday it would cut 10 percent of its traditional store square footage in the United States and focus on growing its specialized, smaller Best Buy Mobile concept.

A contrite Brian Dunn, CEO for nearly two years, apologized for the chain’s weak performance last year and outlined a growth strategy that also includes increasing online sales, enhanced service options and more product choices.

“We’re not particularly pleased with the job we did last year,” Dunn told Wall Street analysts during investor day at the company’s Richfield, Minn., campus.

“We missed a few things. We missed the impact of the iPad. We bet on 3D TV, the whole industry did, and it didn’t come in play. Those are mistakes for which I am responsible.”

But overall, Dunn was optimistic about righting the consumer electronic giant in the coming year.

“The industry is changing and

Best Buy is changing,” Dunn said. “Best Buy remains relevant in today’s ecosystem. We are adaptive learners.”

The past two years have been hard on the consumer electronics industry in general, and Best Buy in particular, as fierce online competition and discounters such as Costco and Wal-Mart have eaten away some of its market share. Sales declined 1.8 percent for its most recent fiscal year and profits were down 3 percent.

Best Buy’s stock, which closed Thursday at $29.46, down nearly 3 percent, has languished in recent months. In November it was near $45 a share.

The retailer said it intends to shrink its traditional “big-box” square footage in the United States by 10 percent. The move should save the retailer $70 million to $80 million annually.

Executives said “a small number of stores” in underperforming markets would be closed.

Those that remain open will gradually be transformed into a more consumer-friendly showroom where shoppers would have ample opportunity to check out competing brands of tab-

lets and computers. The retailer plans to sublease extra square footage when possible.

Many retailers, including Target and Wal-Mart, are focus-

ing on smaller stores for future growth, particularly in urban areas. But walling off sections of existing stores goes a step further than many chains.

Nintendo posts great 3DS sales

By Cliff Edwards Bloomberg News

SAN FRANCISCO — Nintendo Co., the world’s biggest maker of video-game consoles, says it sold almost 440,000 units of the 3DS handheld game player during its first week of U.S. sales in late March.

Combined with three older models, Nintendo sold 860,000 DS units in March, Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime said, citing figures from industry tracker NPD Group Inc. A year ago, Nintendo sold 701,000 DS handhelds.

“We had a great start to the Nintendo 3DS, and portables overall had their best March in history,” Fils-Aime said in a phone interview last week.

Nintendo, unlike some Japanese manufacturers, has not faced supply constraints on its products following last month’s earthquake and tsunami in northern Japan, Fils-Aime said. Shipments of the $250 3DS, which plays 3-D images without the need for special glasses, haven’t been affected, and the company still plans to deliver a new Web browser and Netflix streaming before the end of the summer, he said.

The first week’s U.S. 3DS sales were less than analyst Haruka Mori at Barclays Capital expected, he wrote in a report Friday, without giving his estimate.

“Nintendo needs to expand its own 3DS software lineup and launch new software which is suitable for the 3Ds’s functionality,” Mori said.

U.S. retail sales of videogame software and equipment fell 4 percent to $1.53 billion in March from a year earlier, NPD said in a statement.

Nintendo’s “Pokemon Black” and “Pokemon White” dominated industry software sales of $735.4 million, selling more than 2.5 million copies in March.

The Kyoto, Japan-based company sold 290,000 Wii video-game consoles, down 48 percent from 558,000 units sold in the same period a year earlier. Michael Pachter, a video-game analyst at Wedbush Securities Inc. in Los Angeles, estimated that Nintendo would report 410,000 Wii sales in a report before the NPD data.

The Wii’s continued decline in sales has prompted some analyst speculation that Nintendo will announce a price cut, major update or new home console introduction for the annual E3 game expo in Los Angeles in June.

Online game site Game Informer said Nintendo will update the Wii to deliver games in high definition, citing sources it did not name. Fils-Aime declined to comment on the company’s plans for the Wii. The 3DS player sold about 801,000 units in the first month following its debut in Japan on Feb. 26, according to Tokyo-based researcher Enterbrain Inc. Microsoft’s Xbox 360 remained the top-selling game console for the month, NPD said.

JAPAN’S NUCLEAR CRISIS

Plant’s radiation levels too high for humans

Guidelines revised for Alzheimer’s diagnoses

By Pam Belluck New York Times News Service

For the first time in 27 years, the definition of Alzheimer’s disease is being recast in new medical guidelines that reflect fastmounting evidence that it begins ravaging the brain years before the symptoms of dementia.

The guidelines, to be issued Tuesday by the National Institute on Aging and the Alzheimer’s Association, divide the disease into three stages: a phase when dementia has developed, a middle phase in which mild problems emerge but daily functions can still be performed, and the most recently discovered phase, in which no symptoms are evident but changes are brewing in the brain.

“We’re redefining Alzheimer’s disease and looking at this in a different way than had ever been done,” said Creighton Phelps, director of the National Institute on Aging’s Alzheimer’s Disease Centers Program. “I think we’re going to start to identify it earlier and earlier.”

The drive to diagnose Alzheimer’s before it has progressed into profound dementia is also reflected in a bill introduced in Congress this month, which would create specific Medicare cost codes for Alzheimer’s diagnosis, including steps involving discussions between the patient’s doctor and caregivers, a recognition that keeping family members well-informed can result in better planning and care.

The most striking addition to the guidelines concerns methods that assess brain changes involved in Alzheimer’s, including brain scans and tests of cerebral spinal fluid. Such methods measure what are called biomarkers, physiological indicators that someone is likely to develop dementia eventually, just as cholesterol and blood pressure are biomarkers of impending heart disease.

For now, the guidelines specify that Alzheimer’s biomarkers — including abnormal levels of the proteins amyloid and tau, and shrinkage of certain brain areas — should not yet be put into widespread use, but used only with patients enrolled in clinical trials.

That is because scientists cannot yet standardize the results of the tests, or know “what measure is truly abnormal and what measure is not,” said Marilyn Albert, director of the Johns Hopkins Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center, and a leader of one group that developed the new guidelines.

Flaherty Continued from A1 The county has already incurred at least $14,000 in legal expenses from attorneys it hired during a grand jury investigation Flaherty launched in February.

That investigation was prompted by the county’s release of documents in response to a public records request from The Bulletin.

The lawsuit that Flaherty and county officials now face was filed April 1 by former deputy district attorneys Brentley Foster, Jody Vaughan and Phil Duong. Foster, Vaughan and Duong are seeking reinstatement and about $22.5 million in punitive, economic and other damages.

In the complaint, the former prosecutors allege wrongful discharge, sex discrimination, unfair labor practices and violations of their First Amendment rights to free speech and association. The former prosecutors claim that county officials aided Flaherty in his plan to fire them by delaying a ratification vote on the Deschutes County District Attorneys Association’s contract until after Flaherty took office in January.

The former prosecutors also

Workers have not been able to enter four of the reactors at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant since the days immediately after the earthquake and tsunami struck on March 11.

Vital cooling systems at the plant were knocked out, setting off hydrogen explosions at four of the

plant’s six reactors that blew off their roofs and littered the site with radioactive debris.

On Sunday, two robots made their way into two of those reactor units, opening doors and navigating radioactive debris and puddles of water to return with temperature, pressure and radioactivity readings. The read-

ings, released Monday, showed continued high radiation levels inside the reactors.

At Unit 1, robots detected radiation of up to 49 millisieverts per hour, while at Unit 3, the reading was 57 millisieverts per hour. But in recent weeks far higher readings have come from areas where contaminated water has accumu-

lated, like the turbine building at Unit 2, where experts say the reactor pressure vessel may be cracked and leaking nuclear material.

Those levels must come down before workers can be allowed back inside, said Hidehiko Nishiyama, deputy director general at the Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency.

In besieged Libyan city, nowhere to run

By Leila Fadel The Washington Post

MISRATA, Libya — For the 500,000 residents of this onceprosperous port city, there is nowhere to run.

The city is surrounded by forces loyal to Moammar Gadhafi. His snipers lurk on rooftops and peer from open windows. Entire neighborhoods are off-limits because of indiscriminate artillery and mortar fire. Hospitals are overflowing with the wounded, some of them children.

For residents, it is not just a question of whether to fight, but how long they can survive. After living under siege for nearly two months, many are reaching their breaking point as Gadhafi escalates his attacks and supplies become ever more scarce. Lines for bread and gasoline go on for blocks. Sewage has seeped into the water system. Most of the city is run on generators or has no power at all. Cellphone service has been cut.

Misrata is the last opposition stronghold in western Libya, but it is unclear how long the ragtag rebel force will be able to hold out amid daily assaults by the government. To the rebels, this city is a potent symbol of resistance and a reminder that the uprising that swept the country in late February was not confined to the east. It also poses a dangerous threat to Gadhafi, giving his opponents a base that is uncomfortably close to the capital, Tripoli.

But unlike the rebels in the east, fighters in Misrata have no room to retreat when they are overwhelmed by government firepower. They also have only one way of getting supplies — the port — but few boat captains have dared to come ashore amid regular shelling. The city’s isolation has also kept most foreign

New York Times News Service

CAIRO — Weeks of clashes in Syria between protesters and the government intensified Monday and early today as security forces fired on a crowd of thousands of demonstrators in the central square of the city of Homs, witnesses said.

The crowd had gathered

allege in the lawsuit that Deputy District Attorney J. Pat Horton, at Flaherty’s direction, left a leaflet on other prosecutors’ chairs, urging them to decertify the union.

A copy of the unsigned leaflet filed with the complaint reads, “We are all part of Patricks (sic) team now and we need to show our support for him.”

The association’s attorney, Becky Gallagher, said last week the association still exists and has not voted to decertify itself.

Attorney Judy Danelle Snyder, who represents Duong, said it could take a year for the case to go to trial. The plaintiffs’ circumstances could change by then, and they may no longer want their jobs back, Snyder said.

However, reinstatement is an option to reduce the damages that Foster, Vaughan and Duong are seeking, by eliminating frontpay, Snyder said.

Justices won’t hear detainees’ appeal WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court said Monday that it would not hear an appeal from five Chinese Muslims detained at Guantanamo Bay who seek to be released into the United States. There were no noted dissents, but Justice Stephen Breyer, joined by three other justices, issued a statement explaining their reasoning.

The prisoners, from the largely Muslim Uighur region of western China, were captured in Afghanistan or Pakistan after the Sept. 11 attacks.

They have been determined by the government to pose no threat to the United States, and Breyer wrote that all concerned agree that their detention is “without lawful cause.”

The prisoners do not want to be returned to China, where they are considered terrorists and where they fear torture or execution.

Obamas’ tax return shows lower income

A Libyan rebel fighter carries a shoulder-fired rocket launcher on the outskirts of the eastern Libyan city of Ajdabiya on Monday. Libya’s fighting has reached a deadlock, with neither side able to gain a decisive advantage and the front line shifting back and forth across a stretch of desert near Ajdabiya. journalists away, though some have arrived in recent days after a perilous journey by sea.

Without a reliable supply chain, would-be fighters must wait until a comrade dies so they can inherit his weapon. Most use old Kalashnikov assault rifles, stolen from a Gadhafi base soon after the uprising began.

On the coastal road Monday, one fighter held up a soda bottle filled with gasoline and a dieselsoaked cloth.

“These are our antitank weapons,” said Ismail Kraweed, 23.

The rebels throw the homemade bombs at government vehicles, but to little effect.

Kraweed hid Monday behind dirt barriers fashioned in the middle of the street near an abandoned gas station scarred with bullet holes. Gadhafi’s forces loomed less than half a

mile away. The rebels typically attempt to lure the government tanks into residential areas, so they can surround and try to destroy them.

As Kraweed and his fellow fighters waited to spring their trap, mortar shells sailed overhead and explosions rocked the city. Tripoli Street — the city’s main drag — has become a shell of its former self, with buildings along it reduced to rubble.

Overhead, snipers eyed their targets while camped out in the insurance building — the tallest on the block — and in an adjacent bank. Rebels said the snipers are remarkably efficient, picking off their marks with shots to the head and chest. Rebels don’t bother to operate at night, because the snipers use night-vision goggles to target anything that moves.

“We tried to blow up the build-

ings, but we don’t know how,” said Alaa el Deen Khesham, 30, a rebel fighter who until two months ago worked in public relations for the government.

“We threw homemade bombs in there, but it didn’t do anything.”

He looked down with sadness: “We wish NATO would bomb the buildings.”

There are few signs in Misrata of NATO’s military campaign to protect civilians. The fighting is all urban warfare, making accurate strikes from the air especially difficult.

The United Nations said Monday that it had forged a deal with Gadhafi’s government to allow humanitarian aid into Misrata.

But the agreement was met with skepticism in the city, and it is far from clear that the fighting will pause long enough for the aid to arrive.

Clashes intensify in Syria as protesters reject concessions

By Liam Stack and Katherine Zoepf

to protest a deadly crackdown by the security forces, who activists say killed 14 demonstrators Sunday. Tensions mounted throughout the day, and at about 2:10 a.m. on Tuesday the security forces began firing again, witnesses said.

Shortly before 3 a.m., a woman who lives near the square said by cellphone: “Shooting is heard echoing through the city. The mosques are all calling for help.

We fear that many are killed in the square, that it’s a massacre.”

Razan Zeitouneh, an activist with the Syrian Human Rights Information Link in Damascus, said she heard shots over the phone while talking to a distraught friend in the square. He told her that he saw four people killed and dozens injured.

The renewed protests amounted to a rejection of concessions outlined by President

Bashar Assad in a televised address Saturday, notably lifting the country’s 48-year-old state of emergency by the end of this week.

At the funeral processions in Homs on Monday, mourners in New Clock Tower Square at first offered traditional prayers for the dead. But then protesters began clapping and chanting against Assad as funeral marchers lofted coffins overhead.

Pilliod said Monday.

Ethics rules bar the county’s own attorneys from representing officials in this matter, since county attorneys could be called as witnesses regarding the county’s dealings with the deputy district attorneys union, of which the fired prosecutors were members. The prosecutors are suing Luke and Commissioners Alan Unger and Tammy Baney individually, so it’s possible each commissioner could require a separate defense.

The attorneys for whom the county has received the $14,000 bill — William Gary and Dave Frohnmayer, a former attorney general and former University of Oregon president — are still working for the county, trying to get Flaherty’s office to return some of the 25,000 county employee e-mails released to the DA during the grand jury investigation. At least some of those

e-mails should not have been released because they contain legal advice from county attorneys to other employees and elected officials, County Administrator Dave Kanner has said.

Gary and Frohnmayer were also seeking the return of DA’s office personnel files the county turned over to the grand jury.

The DA’s office returned those to the county Thursday afternoon, Deputy County Administrator Erik Kropp wrote in an e-mail last week.

Gary and Frohnmayer’s bill covers March 2 through 25, Kropp wrote.

Flaherty ended the grand jury inquiry in late March without filing any charges, in response for a letter from Pilliod expressing regret over the release of information. The documents the county released to The Bulletin were the job applications of nine new hires in Flaherty’s office.

County officials have also decided to pay for a defense attorney retained by Pilliod during the grand jury investigation. However, the county had not received that bill as of last Thursday.

As for the Department of Justice’s interviews, Pilliod said those are part of a routine “coverage investigation” which the department will use to determine whether Flaherty is eligible for defense and indemnification.

“I can’t imagine them undertaking that investigation without talking to some county employee or county official,” Pilliod said.

Income for the Obama household continued to slip in 2010, tax returns show, as proceeds from President Barack Obama’s best-selling books tapered off. But just as he has said, his income is easily high enough to make the family eligible for a tax increase under his own deficit-reduction proposals.

The president and his wife, Michelle Obama, on Monday reported an adjusted gross income of $1,728,096 for 2010, down from $5.5 million in 2009. Most of their income came from sales of his books “Dreams From My Father” and “The Audacity of Hope.”

The Obamas paid $453,770 in federal taxes, for an effective tax rate of just over 26 percent; the top individual tax rate is 35 percent.

The Obamas donated $245,075 — 14.2 percent of their income before tax deductions and exemptions — to 36 charities.

Duke lacrosse accuser charged with murder RALEIGH, N.C. — The woman who falsely accused three Duke lacrosse players of raping her in 2006 was charged Monday with murder in the death of her boyfriend.

Crystal Mangum, 32, was indicted on a charge of firstdegree murder and two counts of larceny. She has been in jail since April 3, when police charged her with assault in the stabbing of 46-year-old Reginald Daye. He died after nearly two weeks at a hospital.

An attorney for Mangum did not return a call seeking comment. The district attorney’s office declined to discuss the case.

The deaths here in Bertie County were the last of 45 in several Southern states attributed to the unusually large storm, which claimed its first life in Oklahoma on Wednesday before chugging east.

Around 7 p.m. Saturday, it sent a ferocious tornado — or possibly two — to the ground here, the storm’s last fatal act before heading out to the Atlantic Ocean.

Continued from A1 The Bend woman now faces several felony charges in Deschutes County Circuit Court, including one count of sodomy, three counts of sexual abuse and four counts of using a child in the display of sexually explicit conduct.

She was scheduled to be in court Monday to enter a plea, but that proceeding was delayed. Her defense attorney, Valerie Wright, did not return a request for comment.

Demink was indicted in November on 13 federal charges related to the sexual exploitation of children, coercion and child pornography. He has since accepted a plea agreement that dropped seven of those counts. He now faces up to 15 years to life in prison.

According to federal court records, Demink met all the mothers — who lived as far away as Idaho, Florida and New Hampshire — through the website SingleParentMeet.com.

He had created the persona of Dalton St. Clair, a single, attractive Ph.D. psychologist with a 14year-old daughter who he sometimes claimed

was a nudist with him.

As St. Clair, Demink persuaded the seven women to sexually assault their children as a form of therapy. He was able to convince a woman in Idaho to abuse her 5-year-old son while her 3-yearold daughter was in the room.

This act, like the one involving the Bend woman, was streamed live over a webcam to Demink’s computer.

The Bend woman is not the only mother who has been arrested as a result of the investigation.

Others have been taken into custody on charges ranging from sexual abuse to producing child pornography.

A Virginia woman, who lived in another state when the crimes occurred, was recently sentenced in federal court to 30 years in prison for child exploitation.

The Bend woman is scheduled to appear in court in mid-May for a plea hearing.

She is currently out of custody on $50,000 bail.

Bend Police say she is not a considered a danger to others.

No breaking-news Pulitzer awarded

By Chris Hawley The Associated Press

NEW YORK — The Los Angeles Times won a Pulitzer Prize for public service Monday for revealing that politicians in a small, working-class California city were paying themselves exorbitant salaries. But for the first time in the Pulitzers’ 95-year history, no award was given in the category of breaking news — the breadand-butter of daily journalism.

In a year when the big stories included the devastating earthquake in Haiti and the Gulf oil spill, the Pulitzer Board didn’t like the entries in the breakingnews category enough to honor any of them with the most prestigious award in journalism.

The Los Angeles Times won for its series revealing that poli-

ticians in Bell, Calif., were drawing salaries well into six figures.

The newspaper’s reporting that officials in the struggling city of 37,000 people were raising property taxes and other fees in part to cover the huge salaries led to arrests and the ouster of some of Bell’s top officials.

The L.A. Times won a second Pulitzer for feature photography, and The New York Times was awarded two Pulitzers for international reporting and for commentary.

The Los Angeles Times has been hobbled by the troubles of its owner, Tribune Co., which has been operating under federal bankruptcy protection for two years. Tribune Co. has been trying to shed most of the debt that it took on in an $8.2 billion buy-

out of the company engineered by real estate mogul Sam Zell.

The Times has also gone through wrenching staff cutbacks.

The board named three finalists for the breaking-news award: The Chicago Tribune for coverage of the deaths of two Chicago firefighters; The Miami Herald and El Nuevo Herald for reporting on the Haiti earthquake; and The Tennessean in Nashville, Tenn., for coverage of a devastating flood.

“No entry received the necessary majority,” said Sig Gissler, administrator of the prizes. He noted that judges have failed to agree on an award 25 other times, but never in breaking news.

The Pulitzer Board gave awards in 13 out of 14 categories for journalism and in seven categories for the arts.

Meyer Continued from A1 “She did a great job, and we couldn’t want for a better mom,” he said.

“I’m not sure I could count even a few boyfriends while we were growing up. She was an incredibly dedicated mother.”

The family lived for years in a one-story house on Amarillo Street in Palo Alto. Her friends remember Sandy as a dedicated mother who cultivated the boys’ interests: paying for flying lessons for Chris, even taking the classes with him for a time. They also said she often set up dates with the boys so she could have one-on-one time with them.

“Even when they were teenagers, they were close, and that’s hard,” said Julia Scalia, a friend and former co-worker at defunct pharmaceutical company Syntex. “I always thought, ‘God, I want to be a mother like Sandy.’ ” In the late 1970s, Audrey Erbes hired Sandy to work as an executive assistant at Syntex.

Erbes said Sandy had previously worked at a veterans hospital.

After working as Erbes’ assistant for a while, Sandy asked her for help finding a better-paying job. Erbes loaned her money to pay for some new clothes, then helped her get an administrative assistant position with the senior executive vice president for human resources. Erbes said Meyer methodically repaid the loan for the wardrobe.

Sue Larraway started at Syntex in 1979 in the human resources department. She never worked in Sandy’s department, but they met through a mutual friend.

When the pair met, Sandy was working two jobs. They were fast friends.

“I just think because we were single and we had so many similar interests, books and cooking and gardening and movies,” Larraway said. “If I said, ‘Let’s do this,’ she’d just light up.”

That meant walking a halfmarathon for the March of Dimes or going to see Disney movies.

“None of my other friends would have done that,” Larraway said.

At the office, Sandy was conscientious and focused. She always looked sharp, say Scalia and Sandy Mallory, another executive assistant.

“She wore very little makeup.

She didn’t need it, she was so pretty,” Scalia said. “She was quiet. She never did anything to bring attention to herself. But everyone liked her. She was a classy gal.”

“I always think of her when I’m thinking of professional behavior,” Mallory said. “She had those qualities that I always admired.”

In the 1990s, Syntex was taken over by Roche, another pharmaceutical company. The women all knew they’d lose their jobs, Larraway said, but Sandy got fired up rather than feeling sorry for herself.

“I’m going to have to look for another job, so now’s not the time to let my chin drop,” she told Larraway.

After Syntex, her friends said, Sandy moved on to a biotech company. Erbes said she did well for herself there, earning stock options.

Music Continued from A1 The results are contributing to a greater understanding of how the brain works and of the importance of music in human development, communication and cognition, and even as a potential therapeutic tool.

Research is showing, for example, that our brains understand music not only as emotional diversion, but also as a form of motion and activity. The same areas of the brain that activate when we swing a golf club or sign our name also engage when we hear expressive moments in music. Brain regions associated with empathy are activated, too, even for listeners who are not musicians.

And what really communicates emotion may not be melody or rhythm, but moments when musicians make subtle changes to those musical patterns.

Daniel Levitin, director of the laboratory for music perception, cognition and expertise at McGill University in Montreal, began puzzling over musical expression in 2002, after hearing a live performance of one of his favorite pieces, Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 27.

“It just left me flat,” Levitin, who wrote the best seller “This Is Your Brain on Music” (Dutton, 2006), recalled in a video describing the project. “I thought, well, how can that be? It’s got this beautiful set of notes. The composer wrote this beautiful piece. What is the pia-

‘The perfect family’ While Sandy raised her boys in Palo Alto, John Meyer was living just 16 miles away in Saratoga, Calif.

Gloria Ascher lived next door to John and his first wife, Marge, for more than 20 years. Ascher’s daughter Amy and Meyer’s daughter Pam were 8 years old when she moved to Glen Brae Road in Saratoga. The two girls grew up together.

“They were like the perfect family,” Ascher said. “They had three wonderful girls, and I’ve gone to all their weddings.”

Ascher said John, who had a Ph.D. in engineering, worked as an engineer in Silicon Valley. A Rutgers University registrar verified he went to school there, and Meyer’s dissertation from 1972 is still housed in the university’s library.

“He was very highly thought of in his field,” Ascher said.

Over the years, Alex Goldberger worked with John at two companies.

He said John started his career at National Semiconductor, then worked with Goldberger at Signetics, a division of Phillips that eventually changed its name to NXP Semiconductor. There, Goldberger said, he served as vice president of the microprocessor division. After Signetics, they worked together at Fujitsu’s microelectronics division, where Goldberger said John was the vice president of engineering.

Ascher believed he also worked at Hitachi for a time.

Goldberger traveled for work and socialized with John and Marge Meyer.

“He was very outgoing and friendly,” Golberger said. “He was very good to his friends.”

Ascher said John and Marge moved to California from New Jersey. John had three daughters: Jill, now 47; Wendy, now 46; and Pam, now 41. Through Conde, Meyer’s three daughters declined interview requests.

Meyer’s marriage with Marge was a good one, Ascher said. They skied, owned a condominium in Lake Tahoe and always had a dog.

There were backyard barbecues, daughters who played tennis and went on to top universities. The man Ascher describes was highly intelligent, with a happiness about him. She said those he worked with liked him, and Meyer often took employees with him when he moved to a new company.

“He did everything a nextdoor neighbor would do,” she said. “They were a bright, great family.”

Marge died of cancer in 1995.

John and Sandy met through his daughter Wendy and Chris Pries’ first wife, who were friends.

“John had lost Marge a year or so before, and the girls worried about him. They thought he was best when he was with somebody,” Dave Conde said.

In May 1997, after about two years of dating, the pair were married at the Thomas Fogarty Vineyard in Woodside, Calif.

“John and Mom seemed to have a beautiful relationship,” Conde said. “He was a nice enough guy with great daughters who have great families of their own.”

But some of Sandy’s friends weren’t thrilled with the match.

Looking back, Erbes and Lar-

nist doing to mess this up?”

Before entering academia, Levitin worked in the recording industry, producing, engineering or consulting for Steely Dan, Blue Oyster Cult, the Grateful Dead, Santana, Eric Clapton and Stevie Wonder. He has played tenor saxophone with Mel Torme and Sting, and guitar with David Byrne.

After the Mozart mishap, Levitin and a graduate student, Anjali Bhatara, decided to try teasing apart some elements of musical expression in a rigorous scientific way.

He likened it to tasting two different pots de creme: “One has allspice and ginger and the other has vanilla. You know they taste different but you can’t isolate the ingredient.”

To decipher the contribution of different musical flavorings, they had Thomas Plaunt, chairman of McGill’s piano department, perform snatches of several Chopin nocturnes on a Disklavier, a piano with sensors under each key recording how long he held each note and how hard he struck each key (a measure of how loud each note sounded). The note-by-note data was useful because musicians rarely perform exactly the way the music is written on the page — rather, they add interpretation and personality to a piece by lingering on some notes and quickly releasing others, playing some louder, others softer.

The pianist’s recording became a blueprint, what researchers considered to be the 100 percent musical rendition. Then they

Some friends remember John and Sandy (on their wedding day in 1997) as an odd match, but most say they had a happy marriage. raway remember thinking the marriage was an odd match.

“I remember being surprised,” Larraway said of the engagement.

When they went to the Meyer house for the wedding shower, the women were surprised to see photos of John’s first wife still scattered around the house.

At the end of the shower, a group gathered out in the street and expressed concern about the impending nuptials.

“You don’t want to be a part of a collection, living in a museum to his wife,” Erbes remembers telling Meyer.

But Larraway said if Sandy was unhappy, she was unlikely to say anything.

“I don’t remember her ever acting unhappy about anything.

Feisty? Yes,” she said. “But she never felt sorry for herself. She put a positive spin on things.”

The women never met John until the couple’s wedding day, and as time went by they didn’t see much of their friend.

Life in Oregon The couple sold the house in Saratoga in January 2001 and bought their home in Mountain High the following month.

Ascher was their Realtor, selling the home in California. Several years ago she went to visit the couple in Bend, where they went whitewater rafting.

“They had a lovely life,” she said. “I never heard them argue.”

After the Meyers moved to Bend, Larraway still saw Sandy when Sandy visited Conde.

They’d get lunch, and Sue said they’d just go on and on.

“She was a good one for putting on a happy face,” Larraway said.

“She never said to me, ‘Oh, I married such a wonderful man.’ She never mentioned what it was like to be married. She never talked about him. It just didn’t come up.”

Erbes and her husband, Jay, visited Sandy and John in Bend in 2004 as they passed through on the way to Canada.

At that time, Erbes said, Sandy told her she was furious that John had been day-trading.

The researchers created a version using those average values so that the music sounded homogeneous and evenly paced, with every eighth note held for an identical amount of time, each quarter note precisely double the length of an eighth note.

They created other versions too: a 50 percent version, with note lengths and volume halfway between the mechanical average and the original, and versions at 25 percent, 75 percent, and even 125 percent and 150 percent, in which the pianist’s loud notes were even louder, his longestheld notes even longer.

Study subjects listened to them in random order, rating how emotional each sounded. Musicians and nonmusicians alike found the original pianist’s performance most emotional and the averaged version least emotional.

But it was not just changes in volume and timing that moved them. Versions with even more variation than the original, at 125 and 150 percent, did not strike listeners as more emotional.

“I think it means that the pianist is very experienced in using these expressive cues,” said Bhatara, now a postdoctoral researcher at the Universite Paris Descartes. “He’s using them at kind of an optimal level.”

her (biotech) stock away,” she said. “She was very upset.”

Conde didn’t describe his stepfather as a day-trader. He said, rather, that John was active in his investments, but didn’t know whether he was rapidly trading high volumes of stocks.

Bend Police Capt. Jim Porter said there were indications that he was heavily invested — and struggling — in the stock market.

The 2004 visit was a short one, but Jay Erbes said he tried to engage John about their shared interest in the railroad. He didn’t have much luck. That was the last time the couple saw Sandy. They invited her to their beach house, but timing never worked out.

Conde said the marriage seemed happy until March 9, when Sandy didn’t show up for her book club meeting at Velvet.

On March 10, John called police to report his wife missing, claiming that she’d left home to go to a book club meeting and never returned. That morning, the police found her car in the parking lot at The Old Mill, and in the days following launched a search in the Deschutes River and surrounding areas.

On March 16, Porter said, police questioned John.

“We hit this case really hard and we worked lots of overtime and got on it really quickly, and we started uncovering facts and

putting them together,” he said.

“We conducted an interview with him, and the context and direction of the interview would have left no one with doubt that something extremely suspicious had happened.”

On March 17, John’s body was discovered by Chris Pries in the storage space under the Mountain High house. John had died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

He had bought the gun — the only one he owned — in January.

John left two letters, giving reasons for taking his own life but not giving any indication that he’d been involved in his wife’s disappearance. He had canceled his wife’s membership at a local athletic club the day he reported her missing. He’d also canceled a newspaper subscription.

A substantial amount of Sandy’s blood was found in the kitchen and dining area heating ducts at the Meyers’ house, and her orange purse was found hidden beneath the couple’s house.

‘There weren’t any signs’ For family, it’s baffling.

“There weren’t any signs,” Conde said. “We’re trying to resolve how this could be, if it’s what it seems it might be.”

But Conde said the family, including John’s daughters, continue to work together.

“It hasn’t changed anything,” he said. “First and foremost we’re focused on trying to find mom.

After that, we’re wanting to understand what happened.”

Conde said he and his brother are concerned about Meyer’s daughters and what they’re going through. But at this point, the police are struggling to locate further leads that will help the family find closure.

“We’re at a standstill to a degree,” Porter said. “We’re still analyzing computers, and we’re still analyzing some paperwork we found.”

Porter declined to specify what type of paperwork that might be and said the police don’t have a motive for the murder-suicide.

But Conde did say the Meyers’ finances had deteriorated.

“The finances look to have gotten worse over the years,” he said.

“But how do you consider ending your life or another’s (over that)?”

That’s a sticking point for many who knew both Sandy and John.

“It’s just tragic,” Ascher said.

“I just can’t believe that John did it. I don’t think he was capable of doing it.”

In the weeks since Sandy’s disappearance and John’s suicide, Ascher said she’s spoken with several of John’s friends, and they were equally shocked.

She has e-mails from people who worked with him: “They all are saying this is not the John we knew,” she said. “You will never get anybody to say, ‘Oh, there’s a side of John, yeah, maybe, he was pretty weird.’ You won’t ever get anyone to say that.”

Meanwhile, Sandy’s friends are also trying to make sense of the tragedy.

Larraway said when she heard Meyer was missing, she immediately feared the worst.

“I knew she didn’t just drive off,” she said. “She would not have done that, she would not put her boys through that worry, and she wouldn’t leave Sam (her dog).”

Recently, Ascher and her family went over to Pam Meyer’s house for dinner. She told Ascher her father’s suicide note said explicitly that he had nothing to do with her disappearance.

“They’re just devastated. I don’t think she ever got over the loss of her mother, and now this thing,” Ascher said. “It’s just tragic.”

On Friday, Conde drove his mom’s SUV to Oregon, her dog Sam in the back. He said there have been no new leads on his mother’s disappearance, but that won’t stop his family. The group plans to continue searching this week, although police are not actively searching for Sandy.

“A search for her body has not been mounted because we don’t have even close to a location to search,” Porter said. The police have tried to use cellphone information to narrow down areas to search but have not had much luck. “Quite often in these cases what we find is as time passes, with fishing season and mushroom hunters, we’re hoping someone will come across her remains. We’re not in a proactive search mode because we really, truly have no place to start.”

So Conde and his family will continue to wait and search.

“This is definitely a nightmare of limbo, of not knowing but having enough clues to fear the worst,” he said. “And there’s part of you that mourns Mom’s loss but you can’t get beyond that because you don’t know.

“We can’t rest. We can’t begin to heal.”

RODEO

PREP BASEBALL

Culver’s Mote is now career leader in bareback earnings

Cougs win sixth straight

RED BLUFF, Calif.

— Culver’s Bobby Mote has become the career rodeo earnings leader among bareback riders. He is climbing up the overall earnings ladder as well.

Mote’s 84-point ride Sunday allowed him to tie another Central Oregon rider, Redmond’s Steven Peebles, for the bareback title at the Red Bluff Bobby Mote RoundUp. The $4,852 Mote won for his co-championship at Red Bluff boosted his career Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association earnings to $1,877,065 — the most ever for a bareback rider and past yet another Central Oregon cowboy on the overall career earnings list.

Mote overtook 2004 ProRodeo Hall of Fame inductee and longtime Powell Butte resident Clint Corey for 19th place in overall career PRCA earnings.

“I didn’t know I’d passed him,” said the 34-year-old Mote, the four-time and reigning PRCA world champion.

“That’s something I’m pretty proud of, because there’s no better bareback rider than Clint Corey.”

Corey, the 1991 world champion, retired with 18 National Finals Rodeo appearances and career earnings of $1,876,206.

CORRECTION

Track etiquette As with other kinds of sports facilities, tracks have their own set of norms that thoughtful users will follow. Summit High School head track and field coach Dave Turnbull offers the following tips for track users:

A prep sports roundup headlined “Summit third, Redmond fourth at Bend invite” that appeared in Sunday’s Bulletin on Page D5 included incorrect information.

Summit’s Lindsey Brodeck won her No. 1 singles match against Wilsonville and the Storm’s Hannah Shephard posted victories in No. 1 singles play against Sherwood and Redmond. Also, Brodeck and teammate Haley Younger recorded doubles wins against Sherwood and Redmond.

The Bulletin regrets the errors.

1. Use the outside lanes. If you are casually exercising, walking or jogging, a little extra distance will not hurt you, and it saves Lane 1 — which sees the most foot traffic — from wear and tear. “Those inside lanes get so beat up because everyone wants the (shorter) inside route,” Turnbull explains.

2. Do not bring your pet to the track. Leave Fido at home or take him to the dog park or out on the trails.

3. If using spikes for a workout, check to see which kinds are appropriate and will not damage the track. Turnbull says this can be accomplished by e-mailing or

calling a coach.

4. Respect that the track is a school facility. The schools’ priority is educating their students, Turnbull notes, so call ahead if you want to work out on the track during the school day and work around the school-related activities that occur there.

5. Be polite to other users. Want to run intervals but someone is walking in Lane 1? Turnbull says that “common courtesy and respect” can go a long way, so play nice. “It’s easier to ask for permission than to ask someone to move,” he observes.

LOCAL FISHING

Anglers may have few options for opener Bulletin staff report Relatively few high Cascade lakes will be accessible in time for the opening day of trout fishing season this Saturday, according to officials with the Deschutes County Road Department and lake resort owners.

Wickiup Reservoir and the smaller North Twin and South Twin lakes, all located about 45 miles southwest of Bend,

might be the only Cascade lakes in Central Oregon that will be both ice free and accessible by this weekend after a particularly snowy winter.

“It’s looking that way,” said road department operations manager Roger Olson on Monday.

Lava Lake, located 41 miles southwest of Bend, will most likely remain covered by ice through next week, ac-

cording to Lava Lake resort owner Joann Frazee.

But there might be some hope for Crane Prairie Reservoir, just north of Wickiup Reservoir, though it is too early to tell.

“We don’t know at this time,” said Crane Prairie Resort owner Jody Schatz.

“We have one-lane access, but we don’t have any more than that. The ice will be

off (the reservoir).”

Farther southwest along state Highway 58, both Odell Lake and Crescent Lake should be ice free and accessible for Saturday, according to managers of the resorts at those lakes.

For updated information on opening day of trout season, see The Bulletin’s Hunting & Fishing feature in Thursday’s sports section.

S B Football • Oregon backup QB arrested after police check party: A backup University of Oregon quarterback has been arrested by Eugene police responding to a report of a loud party. KVAL-TV reports that 19-year-old Dustin Haines was charged with resisting arrest, excessive noise and interfering with police last Friday after he allegedly became hostile with officers. The Oregon athletic department told KVAL that Ducks coach Chip Kelly suspended Haines from the team “pending the collection of further information.”

• Bucs set to play Bears in London in October: The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will host the Chicago Bears at London’s Wembley Stadium in October if the NFL season isn’t altered by a labor dispute. With the league and its locked-out players still mired in negotiations over a new labor agreement, the NFL on Monday announced its plans for what it hopes will be the fifth regular-season game played in the British capital.

Basketball • Klay Thompson entering NBA draft, not hiring agent: Washington State guard Klay Thompson announced Monday he will forgo his senior season and enter the NBA draft, and the only likely scenario in which he’d return to school is if Thompson doesn’t believe he’ll be a first-round pick. Thompson said he believes he’ll be a first-round pick and therefore have a guaranteed contract. But that uncertainty is why the leading scorer in the Pac-10 Conference last season is holding off on hiring an agent until he gets more feedback from NBA personnel.

• Rockets part with Adelman: Rick Adelman is out as coach of the Houston Rockets. The team announced that the Rockets and Adelman “have mutually agreed to part ways.” Adelman’s contract expires on June 30. General manager Daryl Morey said in a statement Monday night that the decision came after “numerous discussions and careful consideration.” The 64-year-old Adelman went 193-135 in four seasons with the Rockets. The .588 winning percentage was the highest among the 11 full-time coaches the franchise has had.

• Magic’s Howard wins third straight defensive award: Dwight Howard has another piece of hardware for his personal trophy case. The Orlando Magic center became the first player to win the NBA Defensive Player of the Year Award three straight seasons Monday — and the voting wasn’t close. Howard received 585 points, including 114 first-place votes, from a panel of 120 sports writers and broadcasters. Boston’s Kevin Garnett finished second with 77 points and Dallas’ Tyson Chandler was third with 70.

Baseball • Reds’ Leake arrested on shoplifting charge: Reds pitcher Mike Leake was arrested on a shoplifting charge at a downtown department store Monday, accused of trying to steal six shirts with a total value of $59.88. The 23-year-old starter was booked at the Hamilton County Justice Center on a first-degree misdemeanor charge of shoplifting. It carries a maximum of 180 days in jail.

Lacrosse • Grand jury indicts ex-UVa lacrosse player in death: A grand jury on Monday indicted a former University of Virginia lacrosse player on murder and other charges in the death of a member of the women’s team whom he had been dating.

Kenyans win Boston Marathon races RUNNING

By Jimmy Golen The Associated Press

BOSTON — Kenya’s Geoffrey Mutai ran the fastest 26.2 miles in history to win the Boston Marathon on Monday. Then his claim to a world record was swallowed up by the hills.

Not the inclines of Heartbreak Hill that have doomed so many runners before him.

It was the downhill part of the race that makes his time of 2 hours, 3 minutes, 2 seconds ineligible for an official world record. In short: International Association of Athletics Federations rules have deemed the oldest and most prestigious marathon in the world — long considered the one of the most difficult, too — to be too easy.

“You don’t look at world records.

You just go,” Mutai said. “If you are strong, you push it. But if you put it in your head, you can’t make it.”

Mutai outsprinted Moses Mosop down Boylston Street to win by four seconds as the two Kenyans both beat Haile Gebrselassie’s sanctioned world record of 2:03:59. Four men, including third-place finisher Gebregziabher Gebremariam of Ethiopia and American Ryan Hall, broke the course record of 2:05:52 set just last year by Robert Kiprono Cheruiyot.

“These guys obviously showed us what’s possible for the marathon,” said Hall, whose 2:04:58 is the fast-

Geoffrey Mutai, left, runs ahead of Moses Mosop, right, both of Kenya, in the Newton, Mass., section of the Boston Marathon, Monday.

Mutai went on to win the race. est ever run by an American. “I was out there running, and I was thinking to myself, ‘I can’t believe this is happening right now. I’m running a 2:04 pace, and I can’t even see the leaders.’ It was unreal.”

The IAAF must certify a world record, and it is unlikely to ap-

prove Mutai’s feat. The international governing body’s Rule 206 requires courses to start and finish near the same point in order to discourage downhill, wind-aided runs and the artificially fast times they can produce. (Boston has a net decline of 459 feet, though the course is dominated by hills going up and down.)

“We had a stunning performance and an immensely fast time here today,” said Tom Grilk, head of the Boston Athletic Association, after Mutai ran almost a full minute faster than the sanctioned world record.

“We in Boston are well-pleased with what has happened, and that’s good unto itself. The definitions of others, I will leave to them.”

IAAF officials did not immediately respond to e-mails from The Associated Press seeking comment.

Mutai will receive a $50,000 bonus for the world best and another $25,000 for the course record to go with the $150,000 he and women’s winner Caroline Kilel earned for the win. “This gentleman did both things, and we are honored to have played a part in his doing it,” Grilk said.

Kilel won the women’s race to complete the Kenyan sweep, outsprinting American Desiree Davila to win by two seconds in 2:22:36.

Central Oregon runners among Boston finishers Nineteen participants from the communities of Bend, Redmond, Prineville and Sunriver were among the tens of thousands of runners who completed the Boston Marathon Monday.

The region’s top finisher was Matthew Kolb, of Bend, who covered the 26.2-mile course in 3 hours, 11 minutes, 15 seconds.

Deborah Putnam, also of Bend, was the first female finisher from Central Oregon, finishing in 3:30:41.

For a complete list of the region’s Boston Marathon finishers, see Scoreboard, above.

Davila led as late as the final stretch on Boylston Street and ran the fastest time ever for a U.S. woman, five seconds faster than Benoit, who is now known as Joan Samuelson.

Kara Goucher ran a personal best 2:24:52 to add a fifth-place finish to her third in 2009. No American — man or woman — has won Boston since Lisa Larsen-Weidenbach in 1985.

“We’re knocking on the door,” Hall said. “I mean 2:08 last year and 2:04 this year ... It’s going to come; it’s just a matter of time.”

American League roundup

National League roundup

• Tigers 8, Mariners 3: SEATTLE — Brandon Inge scored the go-ahead run on a wild pitch from Seattle reliever Josh Lueke in the seventh inning, Jhonny Peralta later added a bases-clearing triple, and Max Scherzer remained unbeaten on the season as Detroit rallied late for a win over the Mariners. Inge led off the seventh with a single to left, went to second on a sacrifice bunt and moved to third on Ryan Raburn’s single.

• Red Sox 9, Blue Jays 1: BOSTON — Daisuke Matsuzaka pitched one-hit ball for seven sharp innings, Jed Lowrie got four more hits and Boston extended its winning streak to three games with a win over Toronto. Matsuzaka (1-2) gave up a clean single to center to Jose Bautista with two outs in the first. The Red Sox righty walked Travis Snider with two outs in the second, then set down his final 16 batters.

• Rangers 7, Angels 1: ARLINGTON, Texas — C.J. Wilson struck out nine in seven strong innings and Texas returned home with a victory over the AL West rival Los Angeles Angels. Adrian Beltre homered for the second straight night and Mitch Moreland drove in three runs. Ian Kinsler snapped an zero-for-19 slide with a pair of extrabase hits before scoring on a suicide squeeze by Elvis Andrus, who had been in an extended slump before his three hits.

• Twins 5, Orioles 3: BALTIMORE — Francisco Liriano took a two-hitter into the seventh inning, and Minnesota beat Baltimore to extend the Orioles’ losing streak to eight games. Drew Butera had a career-high three RBIs for the last-place Twins (6-10), who have won two in a row for the first time this season. Liriano (1-3) gave up two runs, five hits and five walks in 7 1⁄3 innings. Matt Capps worked the ninth for his second save — the second in two games — despite allowing a pinch-hit solo homer to Luke Scott.

• Rays 5, White Sox 0: ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — David Price allowed four hits in eight dominant innings and Tampa Bay beat the slumping Chicago White Sox. Price (2-2) struck out nine and walked two. The left-hander entered 0-4 with a 4.88 ERA in four starts against the White Sox. • Indians 7, Royals 3: KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Pinch-hitter Shelley Duncan’s RBI double sparked a four-run 10th inning and Cleveland widened its AL Central lead with a victory over second-place Kansas City. Rookie left-hander Tim Collins (1-1) walked Carlos Santana leading off the 10th and Duncan hooked a two-base hit barely fair into the left-field corner.

• Giants 8, Rockies 1: DENVER — Tim Lincecum, the two-time Cy Young Award winner who led the Giants to the World Series title six months ago, took a no-hitter into the seventh inning at Coors Field and San Francisco routed Colorado. Spotted an early eight-run cushion thanks to homers by Pat Burrell, Nate Schierholtz and Freddy Sanchez, Lincecum cruised through Colorado’s lineup, dominating baseball’s best team over the season’s first 2½ weeks until Carlos Gonzalez broke up his no-hit bid with a clean single in the seventh.

• Brewers 6, Phillies 3: PHILADELPHIA — Ryan Braun drove in the go-ahead run with a sacrifice fly in the 12th inning and Milwaukee beat Philadelphia.

Brandon Kintzler (1-0) pitched two scoreless innings to earn his first win in the majors. The NL East-leading Phillies rallied against closer John Axford in the ninth, tying it at 3 on pinch-hitter Pete Orr’s RBI single with one out. But the Brewers held on and snapped a three-game losing streak to become the fifth straight team to beat Philadelphia in a series opener. The Phillies haven’t lost a series, however.

• Cubs 1, Padres 0: CHICAGO — Pinch-hitter Tyler Colvin doubled home Geovany Soto with two outs in the 10th inning to lift the Chicago Cubs over San Diego. Soto reached on a fielder’s choice with two outs, then scored from first when Colvin lined a shot to right. Carlos Marmol (1-1) struck out two in 1 1⁄3 scoreless innings to pick up the win for the Cubs. Chad Qualls (0-1) allowed a run while getting two outs for San Diego.

• Pirates 9, Reds 3: CINCINNATI — Andrew McCutchen doubled home two runs as part of Pittsburgh’s biggest offensive showing this season, and the Pirates took advantage of another slowstarting Cincinnati pitcher, beating the Reds. The Pirates scored three runs in the first off left-hander Travis Wood (1-2), the second game in a row that a Reds’ starter couldn’t get going.

• Dodgers 4, Braves 2: LOS ANGELES — Ted Lilly pitched seven scoreless innings and James Loney had two RBIs, leading the Los Angeles Dodgers to a victory over Atlanta. Lilly (1-2) recorded his first victory of the season in four starts, after signing a three-year, $33 million contract in October. The 35-year-old left-hander scattered four hits, struck out six and did not allow a runner past second base. Matt Guerrier pitched a perfect eighth and Jonathan Broxton gave up two runs in the ninth on an RBI groundout by Freddie Freeman and a double by Nate McLouth before getting the final out.

COLLEGE BASEBALL

Oregon shuts out San Francisco 4-0, hosts Portland today From wire reports EUGENE — Playing its fifth game in six days, Oregon recorded its sixth shutout of the year, defeating the University of San Francisco 4-0 on Monday afternoon at PK Park.

The Dons, who entered the game on a threegame winning streak after sweeping Portland over the weekend, fell to 17-20 on the year.

In his first start since March 26 vs. Wichita State, Oregon left-hander Christian Jones (3-1) tossed six shutout innings and allowed just four hits while issuing no walks and striking out seven in the win.

The sophomore had missed two weeks of action due to a back ailment before appearing in relief at USC on Saturday.

Junior right-hander Scott McGough picked up his third save of the season, pitching three shutout innings and facing just one batter over the minimum. The Pittsburgh, Pa., native allowed one hit and fanned five.

Freshman Stefan Sabol was two for four on the day, driving in two runs as well as an extra-base hit and stolen base.

Making the start at shortstop, J.J. Altobelli was

two for three with a run scored, while Danny Pulfer and Paul Eshleman also drove in runs.

Oregon took a one-run lead in the first as San Francisco starter Jonathan Abramson issued a one-out walk to Brett Thomas, and Sabol followed by smashing a double into left field that brought Thomas home to score the game’s first run.

The Ducks led 3-0 after three innings after backto-back hits paid off for Oregon. Altobelli led things off with a single before Pulfer’s double to deep left gave UO a 2-0 advantage.

Pulfer then stole third and scored on Sabol’s one-

run single as Abramson’s day was done.

Abramson (1-2) tossed 2 1⁄3 innings, allowing three runs on five hits and one walk while striking out one.

Oregon added a run in the sixth as the Ducks loaded the bases with one out and Paul Eshleman’s pinch-hit sacrifice fly scored Aaron Jones.

USF used six pitchers in the game.

The Ducks continue their stretch of nine games in 11 days, hosting Portland at 6 p.m. today at PK Park.

The Pilots and Ducks are playing a five-game season series in 2011 with the series currently tied at one game apiece.

Red Wings jump early for win over Coyotes The Associated Press PHOENIX — Ruslan Salei and Drew Miller had goals 44 seconds apart to open the game, and the Detroit Red Wings scored early in each period to push Phoenix to the brink of elimination with a 4-2 win over the Coyotes on Monday night.

Detroit leveled the Coyotes in its last playoff game in the desert, eliminating them with a 6-1 win in Game 7 of last year’s first round.

The Red Wings put the lights out on Phoenix’s whiteout this time with the two goals in the opening 2:41, another by Valtteri Filppula nearly as quickly in the second period and Johan Franzen’s score 45 seconds into the third.

Detroit can complete the sweep Wednesday in Phoenix after struggling to get past the Coyotes last season.

The Coyotes fell behind 4-0 in Game 2 in Detroit and, despite a raucous atmosphere inside Jobing.com Arena, were in a quick hole again. Unable to fight its way back again, Phoenix is left with little besides a face-saving chance in what could be its last game in the desert with a murky ownership issue still hovering.

David Schlemko and Ray Whitney scored for the Coyotes.

The Red Wings have skated all over Phoenix throughout the series, their waves of scoring lines keeping the Coyotes on their heels. And they’ve done it without Henrik Zetterberg, their leading scorer who missed his third straight game with a sprained left knee.

Pavel Datsyuk made up for Zetterberg’s absence the first two games, having a hand in five of his team’s eight goals (two goals, three assists). The rest of the talented Red Wings took their turn in Game 3, making it look as though there were six skaters in front of

Detroit Red Wings’ Drew Miller (20) celebrates his goal against the Phoenix Coyotes with teammate Jiri Hudler (26) during the first period in Game 3 of a first-round series Monday in Glendale, Ariz. goalie Jimmy Howard at times.

And, boy, did they take the life out of the Coyotes.

Phoenix rallied with three power-play goals to make Game 2 close and hoped to carry that little bit of momentum back home, where 17,000 fans in white T-shirts made Jobing look like the inside of a popcorn popper before the game.

Juiced by the atmosphere, the Coyotes opened with several hard hits along the boards.

The Red Wings answered with a shrug and two quick, spiritcrushing goals.

Salei scored 1:57 in on a onetimer from beyond the right circle after Darren Helm knocked Coyotes defenseman Ed Jovanovski off the puck behind the goal. Miller added to it 44 seconds later, redirecting a shot by Niklas Kronwall past stunned Phoenix goalie Ilya Bryzgalov that gave the big pockets of red-clad Detroit fans reason to be more vocal

than they already were.

Howard turned back several good chances late in the first period, including consecutive kick saves on close-range shots, and Filppula drained the life from the building 2:50 into the second by flipping a shot past Bryzgalov after needing a couple of seconds to gather the puck.

TALLADEGA, Ala. — Jimmie Johnson didn’t mind a little tag teaming.

Of course, he won the race.

Matt Kenseth thought it was a terrible idea.

Then again, he was knocked out by a crash.

NASCAR drivers have always had a love-hate relationship with restrictor-plate racing, essentially based on how they finish. It’s the same for the fans, who moan and groan about how boring it is — until there’s another nail-biter of an ending like the one at Talladega Superspeedway on Sunday.

Johnson, with a big push from teammate Dale Earnhardt Jr., edged out Clint Bowyer by two-thousandths of a second to tie for the closest finish since NASCAR started using electronic timing.

Hard to complain about a four-wide sprint to the line.

Jeff Gordon and Carl Edwards were also in the mix, and the top eight — each of the contenders was accompanied by a pusher — were a mere 0.145 seconds apart.

Throw in a record-tying 88 lead changes among 26 drivers (more than half the field led at least a lap) and it comes across as the most exciting event in the history of racing.

Johnson certainly saw it that way from Victory Lane.

“Statistically, you look at the race, and it looks pretty awesome,” he said. “From where I was all day long, I thought there was a lot of racing that took place. I thought it was a great race.”

That might be a bit of a stretch.

Before Johnson and the others made that mad dash down the long front straightaway at Talladega, there was a lot of cars just riding around, two by two by two. Drivers took turns swapping the lead in what seemed more choreographed than good, hard competition.

In a broad sense, the focus was the same as it’s always been in a restrictor-plate race: stay out of trouble, conserve the car and try to set up a run for the checkered flag in the last few laps.

But the tactics are different now.

Drivers have figured out they can go even faster when they pair up with just one other car — one guy leading, the other pushing his back bumper — rather than lining up in long drafting formations that used to be the norm at Talladega and Daytona, the two high-banked tracks where horsepower-reducing devices are required on the carburetor to keep speeds from getting over 200 mph.

Now, you’ve got rivals swapping radio frequencies before the race and cutting deals out on the track to pair up. You’ve got drivers actually waiting in the pits for their partner so they can back out together.

You’ve got drivers such as Earnhardt essentially giving up a chance to win in order to push another guy across.

Is this really racing?

Again, it depends on who you ask.

Kenseth was eliminated in one of the crashes Sunday, all of them caused by a pushing car bumping the pushee a little too hard, leading to a spin that took out innocent bystanders.

Not surprising, as it’s impossible for the guy in the back to see anything except the car he’s helping along.

“You’re pushing somebody as hard as you can and you can’t see what’s in front of him, so you don’t know if he’s catching somebody at 30 mph or 5 mph,” Kenseth said. “You don’t know what’s going on.

If he makes a quick move and you’re not ready for it, that’s how people get spun out. Their car is moving one way and you don’t know where they’re going.”

Kenseth liked the old way better. Cars lined up in much larger packs and not quite so close together. A driver could always pop out of line to make a run for the lead, assuming other cars went along with him to provide the necessary drafting help. If not, he’d fall back like he was standing still.

“At least you can kind of control your own destiny and you can kind of draft a little bit,” Kenseth said. “Here, if you don’t have a car locked on you and shoving you, or vice versa, you’re going to get lapped in 15 to 20 laps.”

But Johnson remembers hearing many of the same complaints about the previous style, which could turn into nothing more than a couple of long, boring lines snaking around the track for much of the race in a game of follow the leader, everyone trying to avoid the sort of mistake that would lead to an even bigger crash than any of the ones in Sunday’s race.

“From a driver standpoint, we have a lot more control now with what we do,” Johnson said. “Yes, it is still plate racing, but it’s a race. You can make stuff happen and there is a technique required to stay together and to work traffic together and to communicate.

It puts it back in the driver’s hands a lot more than the old combination of racing.

“I think it’s entertaining,” he concluded. “I don’t remember people excited about the way it was before.”

NASCAR has shown no indication to tweak things with the cars or the rules, so it appears there will be another tag-team event at Daytona in July.

“You can’t take something you’ve learned ... and just throw it in the trash,” Gordon said. “That is here to stay.”

At least until they figure out a way to go even faster with a device designed to slow them down.

Chicago outpaces Indiana The Associated Press CHICAGO — Derrick Rose scored 36 points, Carlos Boozer added 17 points and 16 rebounds, and the top-seeded Chicago Bulls pulled out another dramatic victory over Indiana, beating the Pacers 96-90 on Monday night in Game 2 of their firstround playoff series.

Rose scored eight points over the final four minutes. Kyle Korver nailed another big three-pointer to make it 90-85 with just over a minute left after hitting the tiebreaker in the opener.

A.J. Price hit three free throws with 23.4 seconds left after being fouled by Rose to cut the lead to 90-88. Luol Deng quickly answered with two of his own to make it a four-point game. Ronnie Brewer added two more after a missed three

by Mike Dunleavy, and Chicago, which made its last 16 free throws, hung on to go up 2-0.

It hasn’t been easy for the Bulls after they stormed through the regular season with a league-best 62-20 record.

“Our play has to get better,” Rose said.

“We have to be more smooth, more efficient, especially on the defensive end where we have to try a lot harder. But I feel like we’re going to get things together pretty quickly.”

The Pacers hung in even though they lost point guard Darren Collison to a sprained left ankle going for a layup late in the first half.

Rose continued to play like an MVP candidate even though he had six of his team’s 22 turnovers, following up a career playoff-best 39-point performance with another big outing. He didn’t get to the line quite as much this time but made the most of his opportunities, hitting 12 of 13 free throws after making 19 of 21 in the opener.

Boozer came up big after a quiet Game 1. The Bulls dominated the boards, outrebounding Indiana 57-33, and came away with the win even though they shot just 38.6 percent and had trouble hanging onto the ball.

Danny Granger led Indiana with 19 points, but Tyler Hansbrough struggled, finishing with just six points on two-of12 shooting after scoring 22 points in the opener.

Indiana’s T.J. Ford provided the shot of the game at the end of the third quarter when he banked in an 65-foot heave at the buzzer that tied it at 67, sending loud oohs and aahs through the arena.

But the Bulls let out a big sigh of relief in the end. They realize there’s plenty of room for improvement, but they’re still in control.

For that, they can thank Rose.

Indiana Pacers’ Danny Granger, right, drives to the basket against Chicago Bulls’ Kyle Korver during the first half of Game 2 of a first-round NBA playoff basketball series, Monday.

“He made big play after big play,” Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau said. “He kept attacking the basket. They put a lot of pressure on him. He made the right play. He made the right decisions. He got to the line again. We have to do a better job taking care of the ball. That caused a lot of problems for us.”

One encouraging sign was the emergence of Boozer after foul trouble helped limit him in Game 1.

“The big thing is that he was more aggressive because he was not in foul trouble,” Thibodeau said. “His rebounding was great. He got off to a good start offensively. We should have searched him out more in the post in the second half.”

Trent Russel and Colton Nye each scored a try for Bend, and Manny Preto Prebelo added two conversions.

The Blues’ next match, against the West Linn Lions, will start at 1 p.m.

Continued from B1 Craig Walker and Dave Hood, the athletic directors at Bend High and Mountain View, respectively, and Dave Turnbull, head track and field coach at Summit, all say the reason for the stringency is to protect the integrity of those facilities. Dog waste and vandalism have been issues in the past, they note, and additional users would equate to additional wear and tear on facilities that already see a lot of use. “We love it,� Turnbull says of Summit’s three-year-old track, among the newest in the region. “We respect the fact that the school board approved it, and we protect it with our lives.�

Turnbull is especially strict with Summit’s state-of-the-art Mondo track — so much so that every athlete’s spikes are checked at every high school track meet — because it can be easily damaged.

The only kind of spikes permitted on its gray- and green-toned lanes are pyramid spikes (so named for their shape). Needle-shaped spikes and “Christmas tree� spikes, Turnbull says, will tear up the Mondo surface.

Though access to the high school tracks in Bend is tight, that is not to say that community members can never run on them.

Turnbull says some higher-level masters runners have been allowed to use Summit’s track with supervision, and that Summit hosts running events open to the public at the start of each of its home track meets so that members of the community can check out the track. And Walker at Bend High says that sometimes exercisers use that track when the stadium is open during football practice.

But with the high school facilities often locked — in part to protect the thousands of dollars worth of track and field equipment left out during the season — Hood at Mountain View says

Cascade — are open to the public except during school hours or when school teams or programs are using them. The same goes for the track at La Pine High School.

At COCC, the track is open to the public when intramural programs, classes and club sports are not using it. Similarly, Culver’s track is open to members of the community except for when school events are being held at the athletic complex, where the track is located.

Other tracks, such as those at Redmond, Crook County and Madras high schools, are open to the community even during the school day, though officials at both Redmond and Madras say users should check in with school staff about using them.

Of course, that is good advice prior to going to any facility because, as Redmond athletic director Brent Walsh points out, the schools’ primary goal is their students’ safety.

But with a little flexibility, community members can access a valuable fitness resource. Tracks are useful to everyone from those taking up walking to competitive runners. Their soft surfaces are easier on the joints and legs than roads. Their relative compactness allows parents to get in workouts while keeping an eye on their kids playing in the infield. The exact dimensions of a track allow all exercisers to precisely measure distance, time and improvement, be it the number of laps completed or the speed of intervals. And if exercisers run into trouble, such as a pulled muscle or sudden illness, help (or at least the car) is likely nearby, which is not always the case on the remote trail or road.

So, while hitting the track is not for every exerciser all of the time, it can be a helpful tool for fitness enthusiasts.

As long as it’s the right place at the right time.

Lawsuit threat hinders income tax fix for PERS Judicial precedents stand in way of $72M in savings, committee co-chairman says

SALEM — Of all the bills aimed at reforming the Oregon Public Employees Retirement System this year, only one seemed likely to win bipartisan support.

House Bill 2456 aimed to end the practice of offsetting the high cost of Oregon income taxes for retirees who avoid those taxes by moving out of state. House Democratic Leader Dave Hunt, D-Gladstone, had touted it as proof of Democrats’ willingness to tackle the state’s nasty budget situation.

However, the likely savings from the bill have dropped to a small fraction of the $72 million first estimated. The change is because of a legal analysis pointing out the bill probably would vio-

late past judicial precedents and have to be changed.

On Monday, members of the House Business and Labor Committee declined to approve the bill, arguing that their legal advice left them no choice.

“We’d get sued and lose and have to pay people back with interest,” said the committee’s cochairman, Rep. Mike Schaufler, D-Happy Valley.

But the committee did lend its unanimous support to an amendment that limits the bill to employees hired in 2012 or after.

Judge withdraws hold on Sawyers’ passports Deschutes County Circuit Court Judge Stephen Forte on Monday withdrew his order requiring attorneys to hold Tami and Kevin Sawyer’s passports as part of contempt sanctions for refusing to testify during debtors exams in 2009.

Tami and Kevin Sawyer, who in November were indicted in federal court on charges of money laundering, wire fraud, conspiracy to commit wire fraud, bank fraud and false statement to a financial institution, want their passports back so they can travel to Mexico to care for their properties there.

Forte held the couple in contempt for refusing to answer questions and ordered them to relinquish their passports. Tami Sawyer was ordered to report to Deschutes County jail in November; she recently won an appeal in the Oregon Court of Appeals vacating her contempt of court.

The Sawyers’ release conditions for the federal charges include surrendering their passports to the federal court clerk; they’re not allowed to obtain new passports.

But the Sawyers’ attorneys said they’ve been in touch with federal court authorities, who wanted to check on the status of the passports in Deschutes County before going forward with a hearing in federal court.

For now, the passports will be held in the federal court pretrial services office; Tami Sawyer’s attorney Marc Blackman said the passports are expired.

Prescribed burn set in Prineville area A prescribed burn for areas south of Prineville is scheduled to start today.

The burn, which will last for two days, will take place on areas located adjacent to Prineville Lake Acres subdivisions I

and II. Smoke from the fire will be visible to motorists traveling on Juniper Canyon, Klamath, Custer and Davis Loop roads.

No road closures are expected, but signs will be posted in areas affected by smoke. In the event that smoke settles along roadways, motorists are advised to reduce speeds and turn on their headlights.

The purpose of the burn is to remove material leftover from a thinning project in an attempt to reduce the risk of wildfire.

The burn is dependent on weather conditions.

Bend woman arrested in meth investigation A Bend woman was arrested in the parking lot of the Bend J.C. Penney store on drug-related charges Friday, said the Central Oregon Drug Enforcement Team.

Suzette Delancey, 46, had been under investigation for more than nine months for allegedly trafficking methamphetamine in Central Oregon.

At 7:30 p.m. Friday, detectives from CODE attempted to arrest Delancey when she arrived at the Bend shopping center, as they had probable cause to believe she possessed methamphetamine.

Delancey tried to flee in her vehicle, striking a detective car before driving into a light pole in the parking lot. Detectives took her into custody after a brief struggle. No one was injured.

Delancey was charged with unlawful possession of methamphetamine, unlawful delivery of methamphetamine, unlawful manufacture of methamphetamine, conspiracy to commit unlawful delivery of a controlled substance, felony attempt to elude, resisting arrest, three counts of recklessly endangering another person, and reckless driving.

If you have been living with back pain or neck pain, are you really living?

If you think you’ve tried everything, you need to read this.

Pills and shots temporarily mask pain, and often times do more harm to the body than good. Surgeries are invasive, cause new pains, require weeks of downtime, and still may not be successful at treating the cause of the pain. It’s time to look at an alternative that avoids all of these downfalls because it is fundamentally different. Redmond Wellness & Chiropractic offers such an alternative with our spinal decompression program

that is like no other in Central Oregon.

We know our program works because we have already seen outstanding success with our patients. People suffering from excruciating, lifestyle-altering pain have entered our program. When they completed our spinal decompression program, they were able to return to work, get back to the activities they love, and cancel those shots and surgeries!

The x-rays showed that I had degenerative disc disease and arthritis in the spine.

The pain started in my right buttock, radiated across my thigh, and into my kneecap.

Traditional chiropractic care hadn’t helped. After three treatments on the SpineMed table about 70% of the pain was gone. Upon completion of treatment I am 85% pain free, I can stand up straight and don’t have to lean over the shopping cart, and can walk almost a mile. Best of all, Mr. Grumpy is gone!

Spinal decompression therapy uses state of the art equipment from SpineMed with a variety of technologies and therapies tailored to each patient’s needs. And it’s all completely noninvasive! You can get relief from:

• Back Pain • Neck Pain • Herniated/Bulging Discs

• Degenerative Disc Disease • Sciatica • Spinal Stenosis

Thanks to spinal decompression I feel better than I did before the pinched nerve in my back! According to the M.D. who read my MRI - my back was a mess and worn out with a lot of arthritis. He recommended a nerve block which didn’t help. The next recommendation was surgery. That’s when I visited Dr. Herrin at Redmond Wellness & Chiropractic and discussed spinal decompression. After 7-8 treatments I was pain free and off vicodin. I was even able to go back to work! I would recommend this as an alternative to anyone considering back surgery. The nurse called to tell me when the surgery date was scheduled, and I’m feeling so great that I canceled it! Thanks to everyone at Redmond Wellness & Chiropractic!

O Congressman Wu draws challenger State Labor Commissioner Brad Avakian announces candidacy

By Jonathan J. Cooper The Associated Press

BEAVERTON — An Oregon congressman who has acknowledged inappropriate behavior during the 2010 election campaign will face a primary challenge in the next election.

State Labor Commissioner Brad Avakian said Monday he will seek the party’s nomination in 2012, taking on Democratic Rep. David Wu, who has been battling media reports about erratic behavior that led several key staff members to quit.

Avakian, 40, refrained from di-

rectly criticizing Wu, but his remarks hinted at a campaign message that will question the incumbent’s leadership and representation.

“Some of the challenges that we have been facing as a nation and a state require more than showing up to give what might be a good vote for the progressives,” Avakian told dozens of cheering supporters at a Portland Community College campus in Beaverton.

Avakian’s campaign said he has the support of a number of key Democrats, including state House Demo-

cratic Leader Dave Hunt and Metro Council Chair Tom Hughes. He also lined up support from the Democratic committee chairs in two of the district’s five counties.

Wu was the first Chinese-American to serve in Congress and has tapped the Asian community for support and donations in his past campaigns.

But Stephen Ying, executive director and former president of the Chinese Consolidated Benevolent Association, threw his support to Avakian on Monday.

Ying told The Associated Press that his decision has nothing to do with the questions about Wu’s behavior but is driven by his past work with Avakian on civil rights issues.

“He was Chinese, we thought when he went to Congress he could help us on the civil rights issues,” Ying said of Wu. “But we haven’t seen that in the past.”

Wu spokesman Erik Dorey said the congressman has been “one of the leading voices on human rights and civil liberties for more than a decade,” as an opponent of the Patriot Act, a supporter of Chinese Nobel Peace Prize winner Liu Xiaobo and a proponent of Internet freedom.

Farmhands win appeal on housing SALEM — A federal appeals court has ruled that a major fruit grower violated Oregon’s minimum wage law by deducting the cost of housing from seasonal farmworker paychecks.

The Capital Press in Salem reported the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals reversed a federal judge who last year found that Bear Creek Orchards of Medford was allowed to make such deductions.

Bear Creek is the fruitgrowing division of Harry & David, the specialty food retailer based in Medford that filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in March.

A spokeswoman for the Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industries said the appeals court ruling applies to other farms that want to deduct housing costs from minimumwage paychecks.

Lawmakers trying to keep medical pot reform alive Bill’s proponents want to lower amount users can have on hand; foes vow to fight changes

By Jeff Barnard The Associated Press

GRANTS PASS — Three lawmakers who are former Oregon state troopers are scrambling to keep alive a bill that would cut the amount of medical marijuana patients and growers can have on hand, give police greater access to confidential lists of cardholders, and make it harder for minors to use the drug.

A bill will go to the House Rules Committee after it became clear another would fail to get through the normal committee process on the Senate side before this Thursday’s deadline, Thomas Cuomo, chief of staff to Rep. Andy Olson, R-Albany, said Monday.

The Rules Committee is a refuge for bills that are slow in getting traction. It has later deadlines for sending bills to the floor.

Olson is co-chairman.

‘Intent of voters’ Arguing that patients, growers and caregivers are abusing the medical marijuana law approved by voters in 1998, Olson and two other former state troopers in the Legislature have been working on a series of reforms. The others are Rep. Wayne Krieger, R-Gold Beach, and Rep. Jeff Barker, D-Aloha.

“I want to go back to the intent of what voters wanted to do in 1998 and move that forward,” said Olson, a retired state police lieutenant who ran narcotics investigations. “Right now, I believe it is out of control.”

Marijuana advocates said they

IN THE LEGISLATURE

“There is no political will, no social mandate, and no budget to wipe out medical marijuana in Oregon.”

— Bob Wolfe, Oregon Marijuana Policy Initiative

would go to the mat to defend the amount of marijuana patients and growers can have on hand and keep police from going on fishing expeditions in confidential lists of patients, growers or caregivers.

And they see no reason to make it harder for minors to get medicine that adults can have.

“The marijuana genie is out of the bottle,” said Bob Wolfe of the Oregon Marijuana Policy Initiative. “We have got to stop trying to build a stronger bottle. It will not work. There is no political will, no social mandate, and no budget to wipe out medical marijuana in Oregon.”

More than 38,000 Oregonians hold medical marijuana patient cards, 1 percent of the population.

They have to grow their own or get it from an authorized grower, who cannot charge beyond expenses. Patients are limited to six mature plants and a pound and a half of processed cannabis at one time. Voters turned down a measure last year that would have allowed cardholders to buy marijuana from dispensaries.

In other legislatures Legislatures in several of the 16 states where medical marijuana is legal are looking at ways to make it easier for police to distinguish between the good guys and the bad guys.

Nevada is considering a pilot program that would have the state Board of Pharmacy certify commercial processors serving medical marijuana patients. The Washington House approved a bill designed to bring medical marijuana dispensaries out of a legal gray area by licensing cannabis producers and protecting patients and physicians from arrest. Colorado is considering a bill to shine a spotlight on caregivers, creating a database accessible by police that would include whether their pot is being grown.

The Montana Legislature tried to overturn the whole program approved by voters in 2004, but Gov. Brian Schweitzer vetoed the bill.

In Oregon, Senate Bill 777 was headed for a Wednesday work session in the Senate Health Care Committee, but Sen. Floyd Prozanski, D-Eugene, said a 48-hour rule made it impossible for it to go through a required session in the Judiciary Committee he chairs before the Thursday deadline for bills. He added that any changes to the law, which had been approved by voters, needed to go through a measured, public process and develop consensus.

Wolfe said he only got a look at the proposed reforms on Thursday, and had fundamental objections to several.

ASTORIA — When Julie Thomas first came to the mouth of the Columbia River a couple of years ago to talk buoys with a group of mariners, it didn’t take long for the bar pilots, fishermen, the U.S. Coast Guard and other river users to explain how she could help them.

There was just one wave and weather buoy outside the bar, and it often quit functioning after winter’s early storms ran through, they told Thomas, program manager of the Coastal Data Information Program at Scripps Institute of Oceanography in San Diego.

“There were no observations for waves in the area for long periods of time,” she said.

A smaller Waverunner buoy could be more durable, Thomas told them, and could still provide live data about conditions on the bar. And two of them — one near the bar and another farther offshore to gauge incoming waves — would be even better. She could help them make that happen.

Reliable data Now, that two-buoy system is in place.

Last week, the second CDIP Waverunner buoy was deployed, laying sensors along the approach to the river bar and giving mariners the kind of reliable data they needed.

It was the second phase of the Columbia River Bar Safety Technology project, using real-time wave data sensors and state-of-the-art predictive modeling to give an accurate picture of current and future conditions on the bar. It’s a project that’s been years in the making, bringing together several local and regional groups and interests under a common goal — improved safety.

“The total picture has been completed,” Thomas said.

Now, the inner Clatsop Spit

buoy will measure local seas close to the treacherous bar while the new buoy will give a picture of waves an hour or more out as they are heading in.

“Mariners have a really good depiction of what conditions are,” she added.

Merkley backs project In September 2009, the first of the small wave buoys was installed just outside the bar near the South Jetty by a Tongue Point Job Corps crew on the retired Coast Guard Cutter Ironwood. Funding came from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, who knew the data could be useful with their ongoing dredging in the area. The new offshore buoy is approximately 30 nautical miles west of the mouth of the river, a prime spot to contribute crucial offshore data about wave height and direction to the data streams.

That’s important because of the thousands of tons of cargo, fishing fleets and recreational users that traverse the area all year round, said Sen. Jeff Merkley.

“These buoys allow us to work with the waves to ensure safer passages for ships and their crews and keep cargo moving efficiently across the Columbia River bar.

I’ve supported this project since I came into office, and I’ll continue to push for federal funding to keep these buoys in the water,” Merkley said.

Ongoing funding will be needed to maintain the buoys year after year, and several people have stepped up to keep the project a priority at the federal level, Thomas said.

Tom Towslee, state communications director for Sen. Ron Wyden, said the need is clear.

“It is very simple. These buoys save lives,” Towlsee said.

Legislators give up on $72 million

T

he problem with Oregon’s state pension system is that it is not hard to find problems with it. Here’s another one: Oregon taxpayers compensate some out-of-state residents

getting Oregon Public Employees Retirement System pensions for Oregon income taxes they don’t pay.

That’s right. We’re paying to compensate people for something they don’t even pay. The reasons behind it are a long, sad story that we won’t go into here.

At least this absurdity did not escape the review of then-Gov. Ted Kulongoski’s reset plan last year. The plan called for cutting off the extra payments for non-Oregon residents.

House Bill 2456 was introduced this session to carry that out.

We e-mailed PERS officials to ask how much this would save the state.

They said the number was not readily available. Presumably, they did know at some point because we found figures in the reset plan.

“Eliminating this benefit would save $5.9 million for state general fund agencies and $17.9 million in the state’s support for K-12 and community college districts in 2011-13,” the reset report said. “For all PERS employers, the savings would amount to $72 million in the biennium.”

We’re certain you can think of plenty of things to spend $72 million on that are better than compensating people for something that they don’t pay.

But before you go too far in making plans, remember, this is the state pension system. That means there are problems. And another problem is that the bill has been eviscerated based on the supposed advice of legislative counsel. Most of that $72 million that Oregon could have had is gone.

On Monday, members of the House Business and Labor Committee said the legislative counsel advised the committee that the state would probably lose in court if it tried to take away the existing benefit. The committee then voted to amend the bill so that it would only affect those who retire on or after Jan. 1, 2012. That is going save the state a lot less.

We got a copy of the memo from legislative counsel. We have a different reading of it. The legal advice is for caution, but is far from decisive on any contractual right to the extra payments.

If legislators are worried about disrupting payments to PERS employees, continue the payments until the legal question is resolved.

This is a fight for $72 million. It’s a fight Oregon should have picked. Our legislators surrendered.

Don’t raid reserves W

e all know that Oregon’s schools are going to be hardpressed for cash in the next couple of years. What we don’t know, and what we cannot say for sure, is just how long money for schools and everything else the state pays for will be tight. It’s that uncertainty that lawmakers must keep in mind as the pressure mounts to raid reserves for more money this year.

It’s not going to be easy to resist the pleas of parents, teachers, administrators and students, calling for more than the $5.7 billion they’ve already agreed to give schools. Some members of the state House of Representatives already have caved: Rep. Val Hoyle, D-Eugene, and Rep. Margaret Doherty, D-Tigard, have sponsored a measure to raid the Education Stability Fund in order to boost education spending by $100 million. In addition, they’d take $75 million from the state’s Rainy Day Fund to boost spending for health care and public safety. Most, though not all, of their fellow Democrats have signed on as co-sponsors, as has one lone Republican.

Their impulse is understandable.

No one likes to say “no” when the case for saying “yes” is so appealing.

Yet this is one time when, unappealing or not, saying no is the right thing to do.

One need only look at the Standard & Poor’s warning earlier this week to see what is at stake. The company, which provides credit ratings, investment research and risk evalu-

ation, Monday gave the U.S. government what should be a huge wake-up call. We don’t think Congress will be able to make real inroads on American deficits, the company essentially said. And unless it does, the nation’s credit rating will be hurt and foreign investors who put their money here will go elsewhere.

There’s really only one way to get a handle on that deficit, unfortunately, and it isn’t going to be pleasant. Oh, we can close loopholes, cut spending in every area and even raise taxes, but unless this country gets a handle on government-financed health care costs the deficit won’t shrink significantly.

And as Congress has proven over and over again, simply passing laws saying Uncle Sam will pay less in the future doesn’t get the job done. Those cuts never seem to become reality. Only if all Americans, including the elderly and the poor, have a direct stake in how they spend their health care dollars is the picture likely to change.

Oregon already has bonded so much debt that, as the state treasurer said not so long ago, it cannot afford to bond any more. It, like the federal government, must learn to live within its means, to make the hard choices and then stick with them. For now, that choice must be to leave our reserves untouched this year. No one can predict when they might be needed to keep an even more strippeddown budget afloat, and if they’re taken today, they won’t be available in the future.

My Nickel’s Worth Posting rules for teachers

Hiding greed

The Patrick Flaherty saga

The recent article on the lawsuit against the Chicago Public Schools resulting from the poor judgment of a teacher’s use of Facebook has left me utterly dumbfounded.

It seems every other week I am reading of another teacher and or school district in trouble over a teacher’s questionable use of Facebook.

By now every school district in the nation should be drafting a social networking policy for their employees to sign.

Other government agencies, such as the Albuquerque (N.M.) Police Department, have already realized the inherent dangers of social networking sites and have taken measures to limit their liability to potential lawsuits by “prohibiting officers from even identifying themselves as employees of the Police Department” on social networking sites “or posting photos of departmental insignia — badges, uniforms, cruisers — without permission.”

Courts have generally upheld restrictions of speech on government employees when that speech is job-related.

With the trail already blazed, school districts should have a relatively easy time drafting policies and procedures to protect themselves from potential lawsuits.

The principal in this article said this particular teacher used poor judgment.

However, whose folly is greater, the teacher who exercises poor judgement, thus risking his or her own neck, or the school district that allows a teacher’s poor judgment to jeopardize the wellbeing of an entire district?

It is time that school districts take pre-emptive measures to ensure that the actions of one don’t jeopardize the well-being of many.

Chris Frye Sisters

Regarding the editorial in the April 5 edition of The Bulletin concerning the lockout of the public in contract negotiations with the police and fire unions, it’s just the case they don’t want the public to know how greedy they are.

These are sad times. I did not live in Arkansas during the Depression, but some who did conveyed to me that Rosboro Lumber Co. worked a crew three days one week and two the next, alternating, so everyone had the same income.

Myself, I worked in plywood in the ’50s and ’60s, and when it was slow, we all worked four days a week instead of some working five days and others none.

I know for a fact in some school districts teachers voted to get a bigger wage increase and take larger classrooms in return.

Then they complain of the larger numbers later.

This “recession” we were in was caused only because “everyone should own their own home” as banks were urged to loan more and to most everyone.

Contractors loved it as they got to charge more, people were borrowing way beyond their means, mortgage brokers were juggling figures to get these loans and they in return made more money.

Back in my early years, banks loaned depending on income and required a down payment again on income.

If one is spending all (or most all) income on house payments (or cost of gas) how can the economy keep going?

I lived at a good time.

As the saga goes on with the ridiculous acts of our recently elected district attorney, I am reminded of the movie “The Caine Mutiny” starring Humphrey Bogart as Capt. Queeg.

The basis of the movie revolves around how Queeg perceives how his ship is being run or not run.

When strawberries, yes strawberries, become missing, Queeg becomes distraught and feels that his crew and officers are conducting a mutiny against him.

Remember the scene where Bogart is sitting in the witness chair at the military hearing and he’s rolling steel ball bearings in his hand during questioning about his ability to be the captain of the ship?

Now steal away to 2011 and the Deschutes County District Attorney’s Office as Patrick Flaherty sits in the seat as “the” district attorney.

His track record of de-politicizing the District Attorney’s Office has gone awry.

Firing good attorneys and hiring attorneys that have relatively no criminal prosecution experience as they only recently passed the bar; hiring another individual who hasn’t practiced law in 11 years and also owes back property taxes; and demanding (via subpoena) information dating back to 2002 (he didn’t take office until January 2011) related to his former vitriolic case against the county for inadvertently providing certain pieces of information to the media.

How long will Flaherty pursue his quest for the missing strawberries at the expense of the county taxpayers?

Does he carry ball bearings in his coat pocket?

True issue with Bend middle school boundaries was process

By Rick Conger Bulletin guest columnist

H

ow dare you —“get involved”?

— I just need to “simply get involved” (from the March 31 editorial) in my child’s education? There is nothing more important in my life than my children’s education.

My wife and I spend hours every day doing workbooks, reading to our kids, working on math and volunteering at our children’s classes two days every week. If we were any more “involved,” we’d be on the payroll. We will be “involved” if our children go to Pilot Butte Middle School or Cascade Middle School. That is not the issue here.

And the school district “bent over backward to involve” parents? Does everyone get The Bulletin? No. Even if they do get The Bulletin, do people read it front to back every day? No. Are people out of town? Yes. Do I look at the school district’s website every day? No.

Do I have the school district on Facebook or Twitter? No. But do you know what I do every day? I check my e-mail. Actually, hundreds of times every day. How is it that the school district couldn’t have sent out a simple e-mail to all affected parties or just slipped a notice into my child’s backpack letting us know about the boundary changes? E-mails are free. “Bent over backward”? No. If I had known about the boundary changes, I would have called every parent we know at Pine Ridge to “get involved.”

The true issue at hand here is “the process.” How can anyone say that having only one Pine Ridge member on a committee of nearly 30 people is fair? Is it my fault that I didn’t know about the boundary committee? No, but I’m going to have to live with the consequences because of a “human error” that it wasn’t included in the Pine Ridge newsletter or that I missed it in The Bulletin. That’s a costly “human

IN MY VIEW error” to hundreds of kids, which continues to be completely ignored by the school district. I found out, in The Bulletin, shortly before the three hearings that took place in March. And that was far too late to have any say in the matter.

Will the value of my southwest Bend house be affected? Absolutely. And — oh, by the way — we do live in “southwest” Bend, but it would appear that I’m actually an “east-sider” because I live on the east side of “the river.” Oh, the parkway isn’t the dividing line — or Third Street — or Division Street? Silly me … yes, a meandering river should be the official boundary. And my address that includes “S.W.” in it from the postal service must be an error. There’s this really cool thing that was invented long ago called a “bridge” that humankind developed to span the “boundaries” of rivers. Oh … and if the

river is the dividing line, then why is it that the folks that live near downtown on the “east” side of the river get to send their kids to Cascade? Silly me.

I think the committee members have done an excellent job working a very difficult issue and I would never “bash” them. The problem is that the school district set them up for failure from the beginning with a faulty process. The only fair way to move forward with the process is to start over. Either have all options equally represented or put it up to a vote (normalized for any population differences in the various areas) or have an unbiased party lead the effort. I will embrace the decision if the process is fair, which it currently is not. Were the Steelers fans happy when the Packers won the Super Bowl? No, but everyone played by the rules. It was a “fair” game — and rival fans had to “embrace” the Packers as the winning team. If Pine Ridge is fairly represented (which it cur-

rently isn’t) and we are chosen to go to PBMS, then so be it. I can embrace that result, because it would be the result of a “fair process.” But what we have here in Bend for the school boundary process is a game without rules or referees.

So will this go up for a vote or will the process be revisited? I suspect not. The school district will make a hasty decision to meet a deadline and just hope this all goes away. So be it. If PBMS (50th percentile in Oregon) doesn’t improve to something close to Cascade (top 10 percent in Oregon), then I’ll consider private schooling. I’m not going to gamble that an “average education” is going to suffice for my kids. I’m not willing to take that risk. Oh, and by the way, if I pay a huge premium to send them to “private school,” I’ll still “be involved” there as well.

How dare you.

Rick Conger lives in Bend.

William Schaefer, 89, ex-Maryland governor, Baltimore mayor

By Michael Dresser The Baltimore Sun

BALTIMORE —William Donald Schaefer, the dominant political figure of the last half-century of Maryland history, died Monday after a “do-it-now” career that changed the face of Baltimore while bringing a new burst of energy to the city he loved.

The 89-year-old had recently been hospitalized for pneumonia and had been in poor health for the past few days.

In four terms as mayor and

two as governor, he was a champion of big projects that changed the face of Baltimore: Harborplace, Camden Yards, the National Aquarium, the Convention Center and the light rail among them. Yet he was also intensely involved with the mundane details of city neighborhoods. As mayor, he would patrol the city at night and on weekends, calling city officials to demand immediate action to fill a pothole or clean a garbagestrewn alley.

Flamboyant but private, irascible but sentimental, quirky but hard-headed, Schaefer won immense and enduring popularity among voters for his blunt talk and passionate dedication to public service. He prided himself on saying what ordinary people were thinking — even when it went counter to prevailing political norms — but his outspokenness would eventually contribute to his ouster as comptroller in the 2006 Democratic primary.

Schaefer’s temper was legend-

ary, but his eruptions were often calculated for maximum effect.

He loved intensely — his mother, his friends, his city and state.

And he hated fiercely — most notably in his poisonous relationship with former Gov. Parris Glendening and enduring contempt for the late Colts owner Robert Irsay.

As mayor, he was a tireless promoter of Baltimore. As governor, he was a builder whose second term soured in a wrenching fiscal crisis.

“All of these dollars go directly to teachers and leaders. That’s money that’s not going to contractors or Chalkboard or consultants.”

— Dan Jamison, The Chalkboard Project vice president for education policy

Grant Continued from C1 Last week, the federal government gave the education reform nonprofit an additional $11.2 million for the program.

The grant, to be spent over five years, will be divided among a number of districts, including Bend-La Pine, Crook County and Redmond. Schools in Albany, Lebanon, SalemKeizer and Oregon City will get some of the money, too.

Districts participating in the CLASS Project have spent the past two years fleshing out four core principles: increasing career paths for teachers, improving teacher evaluations, offering teachers more professional development opportunities, and implementing new pay structures that give teachers incentives to take on leadership and mentoring roles.

Next year, they will begin implementing those principles.

Dan Jamison, the vice president for education policy at The Chalkboard Project, said the additional funds are a recognition that the CLASS Project must be sustained for more than a couple of years.

“It requires a different level of resource commitment,” he said. “They want to see us take this thing to the finish line.”

Jamison looks at what the CLASS Project school districts are doing as a five-year national action research study.

Use of funds limited The funds can be used only to implement new compensation models designed by the CLASS Project’s participants.

“Certainly during a time of profound economic crisis there are many, many things we would like to do,” Jamison said.

“But we also recognize and we know that teacher and educator effectiveness is really the best, most sacred commitment we can make. In past years in Oregon we have seen good times and bad, and commitments to teachers, whether it’s mentorship or professional development … [have] been very inconsistent.”

Jamison understands it will be difficult for some to see money targeted to specific programs, but “it reflects a broader commitment by our national leaders for sustained, guaranteed support for educator effectiveness.”

The funds, Jamison said, will go to pay teachers who have taken on additional roles and responsibilities in their schools, and to teachers who show high levels of effectiveness in the classroom. That will likely look different in each school district receiving the funding.

Dan Jones and Karen Stiner are the co-coordinators for the CLASS Project in Bend-La Pine Schools. In May, committees will present their plans for implementing the CLASS Project in area schools.

Among the largest changes under consideration are those that would change the way teachers and principles are evaluated and how teachers are

compensated. One proposal, for instance, would replace the current salary schedule, a step system based on years in the classroom and level of education, with a schedule containing four levels ranging from “emerging professional” to “master teacher leader.”

Upper range teachers would be paid extra for their work outside the classroom. The extra compensation is intended to keep these teachers, who otherwise might seek to become administrators, in the classroom.

Bend-La Pine picked for national study Bend-La Pine is also one of 12 districts nationwide chosen to participate in a study examining the relationship between teacher compensation and student achievement.

“Their premise is if you increase the amount of money that a teacher receives, that will have a direct correlation with student achievement,” Jones said of the U.S. Department of Education.

Of the 12 Bend-La Pine schools in the study, half will serve as a control group with all teachers receiving a 1 percent salary increase. The other half will serve as a test group.

Those schools will operate a value-added schoolwide model, in which entire schools will be paid partly based on whether their students are moving to or beyond their expected growth level. Teachers will also be paid based on their effectiveness in the classroom. Details of how that will be measured are still being determined.

“All of these dollars go directly to teachers and leaders,” Jamison said. “That’s money that’s not going to contractors or Chalkboard or consultants.”

Eventually the federal government will use the results of the study to determine what made a difference in the school sites.

Development and teacher training The district will also use the grant funds to pay for professional development for all teachers and training for principals.

Jamison expects school districts to see significant changes in how federal funding is doled out in the next few years. In the future, he predicts, “federal funds will be directly linked to performance evaluations and professional development, new career roles and opportunities with links to student growth.”

Bend-La Pine Schools hopes to begin implementing some of the changes in the 201112 school year, though Jones and Stiner said they’ll likely be piloting the changes in the 12 Teacher Incentive Fund schools and Marshall High School. But given the financial crisis, Jones says it could be awhile before the district can put all of the systemwide changes in place.

Tribal cops Continued from C1 In a letter to his senator, Multnomah County Sheriff Daniel Staton argued the bill “would create a confusing and potentially dangerous double standard and would have negative impact on communication and cooperation between state and tribal law enforcement agencies.”

Washington County Sheriff Rob Gordon wrote a similar note to lawmakers. Though he doesn’t work near a reservation, Gordon objects to the bill because it “will make tribal police the most powerful police in the State of Oregon, allowing them to enforce Oregon Law both on and off the reservation — but State, County and Municipal Officers will not (have) authority over Tribal members on their lands.”

Senate Republican Leader Ted Ferrioli, R-John Day, said he doesn’t believe that tribal cops would become “super cops.” But the fact that the Sheriffs’ Association is so opposed to the idea has convinced him the bill should head back to committee for more work.

“You can’t have a bill as complicated as this and have all 36 county sheriffs against it. That’s not the heart of compromise,” he said.

Locally, Warm Springs Indian Reservation officials have been strong supporters of the bill. In fact, tribal officials, including the Warm Springs Police Chief Delvis Heath, have traveled to Salem this session to advocate in person. From their perspective, the bill would make all Oregonians safer. At at time when public safety resources are scarce, they argue, tribal officers should be able to arrest people committing crimes, whether they’re on the reservation or off it.

Tribal officials were pleased recently when the Oregon Supreme Court ruled tribal police officers could make arrests off the reservation when they’re in hot pursuit. In 2005, a Warm Springs officer started pursuing a car on U.S. Highway 26 on the reservation. But he wasn’t able to make the arrest until the suspect had left the reservation.

The driver, Thomas Kurtz, was convicted of attempting to elude a police officer and resisting arrest. But the Oregon Court of Appeals overturned Kurtz’s conviction, ruling that the Warm Springs officer was not acting as an agent of the state of Oregon and did not have authority to

enforce state law. The Supreme Court overruled that decision, saying the lower court relied on a narrow definition of police officer.

Opponents of SB 412 argue that allowing tribal officers to make off-reservation arrests in hot pursuit is enough. But tribal officials across the state want to know with more clarity when, exactly, their officers may issue citations, make arrests and apply for and execute search warrants.

They point out that amendments to the bill address some of opponents’ key concerns, such as whether a tribal police officer may be sued. The bill would require tribal officers enforcing state law to waive sovereign immunity if they arrest nontribal members. The bill also would require all tribal officers to meet the same state training requirements as off-reservation cops.

Currently, tribal officers are not required to do so, though many do anyway.

One of the biggest sticking points remains the issue of reciprocity. In exchange for granting tribal officers authority to enforce the law off the reservation, nontribal law enforcement officials have asked for the authority to enforce the law on the reservation. But tribal officials oppose reciprocity, calling the matter non-negotiable. The reservation, they say, was set aside for the use of American Indians.

On Monday afternoon, Jefferson County Sheriff Jim Adkins was planning to cross-deputize two more Warm Springs police officers. Since he has been sheriff, Adkins has deputized nearly all the Warm Springs police officers who have been state-certified. As a result, these officers have the authority to act off the reservation in Jefferson County. Adkins says his office has a great working relationship with the Warm Springs Police Department.

“I believe Warm Springs police officers need some type of legislation (to clarify their authority), and I also understand the concerns of the Oregon State Sheriffs’ Association,” Adkins said.

While Deschutes County Sheriff Larry Blanton says he, too, enjoys a good working relationship with Warm Springs officers, he does not support the bill. He said he’d be willing to reconsider, however, if the issue of reciprocity were dealt with.

PERS Continued from C1 The result is expected to be forwarded to the Joint Ways and Means Committee on Wednesday.

The history of the bill is complicated. When the PERS system was set up, benefits were exempt from taxation. But then a U.S. Supreme Court decision found that states have to tax federal and state employees in the same way.

In 1991, to comply with the federal decision, Oregon lawmakers passed a law to tax state retirees. But a 1992 state court ruling found the new law violated state employees’ contract language that had assumed PERS

benefits would not be taxed.

In 1995, lawmakers passed a new law that provided for reimbursing state retirees for the cost of their income taxes — but neglected to take into account that some of them might move out of state. That’s the problem that HB 2456 was intended to fix, only to run into the threat of another lawsuit.

On Monday, Schaufler’s summary of the legal situation — that the state would lose such a lawsuit — came in response to a question from Rep. Jason Conger, R-Bend, who sits on the committee. After the hearing, Conger, a first-term representative, said that since taking office, he’s learned the legal obstacles to any type of PERS reform are even stiffer than he realized.

“The court has boxed the Legislature in,” he said.

Other ideas for PERS reforms this session included a new tier of decreased benefits for future employees and eliminating the 6 percent “pickup” — referring to the employees’ contribution of 6 percent of payroll the state has decided to contribute on their behalf.

In the House of Representatives, all those bills have to go through the Business and Labor Committee, where one co-chairman, Schaufler, is a dedicated union ally. The agenda of the committee is set by agreement between the two co-chairmen.

The other Business and Labor co-chairman, Rep. Bill Kennemer, R-Oregon City, said consensus on a controversial topic

like PERS is hard to find when the state House of Representatives is split 30-30 between the two major parties.

“The 30-30 split makes it difficult to take great steps on most any issue,” he said. “This is about as big a step as we could get support (for).”

Conger agreed, saying any major reforms are going to have to come from Gov. John Kitzhaber, who has made reducing the 6 percent pickup a part of ongoing negotiations with public employees.

“It doesn’t appear to me that it’s going to be driven by the Legislature,” Conger added.

B U S I N E SS IN BRIEF Chan’s Restaurant reopens after fire Eight months after a fire gutted Chan’s Restaurant along Highway 97 in Bend, owner Lap Chan reopened the restaurant Monday.

Completion of $1.3 million in fire damage repairs and remodeling and the grand reopening coincided with the 25th anniversary of Chan’s purchase of the restaurant, which was known as the China Ranch when he purchased it in 1986.

Hundreds of customers joined in celebrating the 25th anniversary and the reopening, which includes lunch and dinner specials at 1986 prices of $2.25 and $6.95 for the first eight days.

He said the remodel provided between eight and 30 jobs for local construction workers and he increased his restaurant staff from 20 before the fire to 30 for the reopening.

S&P puts ‘negative’ outlook on U.S. rating

By Rebecca Christie and Ian Katz Bloomberg News

Central Oregon jobless rates dip Unemployment rates in all three Central Oregon counties dropped slightly in March compared with February rates, the Oregon Employment Department announced Monday.

Crook County’s 15.4 percent seasonally adjusted rate came in 1.1 percentage points below February’s rate and 1.3 percentage points below March 2010.

Deschutes County recorded a 12.3 percent seasonally adjusted unemployment rate last month, 0.9 of a percentage point below February’s rate and 1.9 percentage points below March 2010.

Jefferson County’s 12.6 percent jobless rate in March dropped 0.8 of a percentage point from February and 1.1 percentage points from March 2010.

Oregon’s statewide unemployment rate for March was 10 percent, essentially unchanged from February’s rate, according to a news release from the Employment Department.

Photographers Regula and Christian Heeb opened the Cascade Center of Photography in southwest Bend last month.

The Heebs are professional travel photographers who have published more than 100 books.

Central Oregon couple open Cascade Center of Photography successful and published ones, with more than 100 books to their credit. “We do it by instinct,” Christian Heeb said of their way of starting the business.

They’re not looking to make a lot of money off the project, as their own photography assignments continue to keep them financially secure. They just want to break even. More importantly, they want to cultivate and maintain a photographic community with their center as a sort of gathering place.

or decades, Swiss-born travel photographers Christian and Regula Heeb kept bottled up a wish to open a place to hold photography classes and gallery showings.

Last month, after months of preparation, the couple opened just such a place, called the Cascade Center of Photography, a first-floor space in a southwest Bend building. Last year, they said, they drove by the spot while on the way to visit their accountant, and they thought it would be just right for their long-held concept.

The Heebs, 40-somethings who have had a house near Horse Butte southeast of Bend for more than 10 years, both continue to work on independent photography assignments in far-flung locales around the world. But now they are maintaining a destination of their own, which already has been drawing the attention of budding photographers

and veterans alike.

“We decided to do more local stuff, you know, besides the international business, to spend a little more time in Central Oregon, instead of always running around,” Christian Heeb said.

Later this month, he said, the photography center, complete with a commercial photo studio, should have regular daily business hours. Till then, it will continue to be open by appointment.

Citigroup posts $3B profit despite losses

By Eric Dash New York Times News Service

Citigroup took another halting step forward Monday in its long march back from the brink, reporting a $3 billion profit in the first quarter, in spite of continuing losses in its mortgage unit and lackluster investment banking results.

The company earned 10 cents a share, a penny above analysts’ expectations, but down 32 percent from the same period a year ago, when it earned its first profit since the financial crisis struck.

As has been the case for other financial giants, Citigroup’s revenue actually fell during the first quarter, as nearly every major region and business except Latin America experienced a slowdown from a year earlier. Overall, revenue declined 22 percent, to $19.7 billion.

Q:

Is the center more focused on travel photographers who make pictures here, or is it focused on photographers who are here and making pictures wherever they choose?

Christian Heeb: Yeah. Travel photography is really my thing, which I don’t think is, you know, feasible for Central Oregon. This center will be for any type of photography as a focal point in Central Oregon.

Expectations grow for restructuring of Greece’s debt

By Landon Thomas Jr. New York Times News Service

The Associated Press ile photo

Citigroup, which owns this Citibank branch in New York, reported Monday firstquarter 2011 net income of $3 billion, a $1.4 billion decline from the first quarter 2010.

The Greeks reject a debt restructuring out of hand. The European Central Bank fears that such a move would spread financial panic. And, meanwhile, the European Union and the International Monetary Fund insist that their recipe of bailouts combined with sharp spending cuts make restructurings unnecessary.

Nevertheless, the notion keeps popping up that Greece, and perhaps even other weak European Union countries like Ireland and Portugal, will be forced to restructure.

Almost a year after it was saved from default by a bailout of 110 billion euros, or about $157 billion, from its European partners and the IMF, the Greek economy continues to sag under 340 billion euros in debt.

Greece’s budget deficit is expected to be 8.4 percent of gross domestic product this year, compared with a mandated target of 7.5 percent.

Standard & Poor’s put the U.S. government on notice that it risks losing its AAA credit rating unless policymakers agree on a plan by 2013 to reduce budget deficits and the national debt.

“If an agreement is not reached and meaningful implementation does not begin by then, this would in our view render the U.S. fiscal profile meaningfully weaker than that of peer ‘AAA’ sovereigns,” New York-based S&P said Monday in a report that maintained its top rating on U.S. long-term debt while lowering the outlook to “negative” for the first time.

S&P said there’s a one-inthree chance that the rating might be cut within two years and that its “baseline assumption” is that Congress and the Obama administration will come to terms on a plan to reduce record deficits. Treasuries and the dollar rebounded from early losses following the statement, while stocks declined. Moody’s Investor Service, which has a stable outlook on U.S. debt, said Monday the U.S. budget debate is “positive” for the country’s credit.

“For most investors, there is nowhere else to put their money as the U.S. still has the strongest, deepest, most-liquid markets in the world,” said Chris Rupkey, chief financial economist at Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ. “There is no alternative.”

The yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note jumped as high as 3.45 percent in the minutes after the S&P report from 3.37 percent.

Why does the warning on U.S. debt, deficit matter?

By Kevin G. Hall McClatchy-Tribune News Service

WASHINGTON — A surprise warning about U.S. debt by credit rating agency Standard & Poor’s sent stocks plunging Monday and crystallized the threat that mounting federal budget deficits and national debt pose to the U.S. financial system and the American way of life.

S&P maintained the coveted AAA rating on U.S. government debt, but switched its outlook from stable to negative, a sign that the ratings agency has doubts about Washington’s prospects for taking effective action to curb deficits and debt.

The surprise action, considered belated by many financial analysts, raises the prospect that the United States could be deemed less creditworthy, which would raise the cost of borrowing for government, business and taxpayers alike.

Here’s a deeper look at what this is all about.

Q: A:

What is Standard & Poor’s, and why does its opinion matter?

S&P is a nationally recognized statistical rating organization. It rates debt, in this case U.S. Treasury bonds, in terms of the risk of default they pose to investors in them. U.S. government securities have long enjoyed the top AAA rating but are now viewed as at risk for a downgrade of creditworthiness.

Myspace founder starts over Foreclosure probe talks with online gaming company yield some agreements

By David McLaughlin

By Evelyn M. Rusli

Bloomberg News

New York Times News Service

NEW YORK — Attorneys general negotiating a settlement of a 50-state investigation of foreclosure practices have reached agreements with lenders on some terms while failing so far to reach an accord on potential monetary payments by the banks, said a person familiar with the talks.

The probe was triggered by claims of faulty foreclosure practices following the housing collapse which law enforcement officials said may violate state law. Significant progress has been made on a deal with lenders, which include Bank of America and JPMorgan Chase, with agreements in principle reached on several issues, said the person, who didn’t specify the areas of accord as they may change as talks proceed.

It may take at least two months to reach a final agreement, said the person, who declined to be identified because the talks are private.

An accord remains out of reach because states want principal reductions for borrowers, which is more than banks agreed to in deals reached with

Just days after the online gaming company MindJolt moved into its Los Angeles headquarters in March 2010, rain started to pour through the ceiling.

Christopher DeWolfe, the chief executive, and his small team of engineers frantically grabbed towels and buckets to protect the computers.

“When you’re working with a big company, you’re used to having a facilities manager and assistant,” said DeWolfe, who bought MindJolt in March with the help of the venture capital firm Austin Ventures. “It reminded me that you have to dig in and you have to do a lot of work yourself.”

DeWolfe, 45, is a long way from his days at Myspace, the once-dominant social network that he co-founded and later left abruptly in 2009, a few years after it was bought by News Corp.

Instead of a plush executive suite with a view of the Beverly Hills sign, he now sits two miles away, in a bare-bones office facing a parking lot.

He has also traded the challenges of a fallen social network giant for a small upstart at the beginning of its life. While Myspace continues to lose money, MindJolt, a profitable enterprise with more than $20 million in revenue and 20 million monthly users, continues to expand its base.

In the latest sign of its ambitions, MindJolt acquired two gaming companies last week, Social Gaming Network and Hallpass Media — effectively doubling its staff to 80 and adding mobile games to its stable of Web offerings. And more acquisitions will come, says DeWolfe, who is considered to be one of the many bidders weighing a purchase of Myspace, according to one person close to the deal, who asked not to be named because talks are private.

News Corp. ousted DeWolfe as the chief executive of Myspace in 2009, as revenue fell and Facebook rose. While Myspace was losing momentum when he left, it still had more unique visitors in the United States than Facebook.

In 2008, the Fox Interactive division, largely Myspace, posted

Outlook Continued from D1 The yield was back down to 3.37 percent at 4:27 p.m. as investors focused on speculation that Greece will be unable to avoid a default, driving them to the relative safety of U.S. debt. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index was down 1.1 percent at the 4 p.m. close of trading to 1,305.14 after declining as much as 1.9 percent.

Monday’s announcement marks the first time the U.S. credit outlook has been questioned since 1995 and 1996, when a dispute between then-President Bill Clinton and House Speaker Newt Gingrich led to government shutdowns. Fitch Ratings put U.S. debt on a “negative ratings watch” in November 1995 until spring 1996, and Moody’s put some U.S. government bonds on review for a possible downgrade in January 1996.

“We believe there is a material risk that U.S. policy makers might not reach an agreement on how to address medium- and long-term budgetary challenges by 2013,” S&P said Monday.

Political pressure The action puts pressure on President Obama and House Republicans to come to agreement on plans to reduce the national debt, which S&P says could rise to 84 percent of gross domestic product by 2013.

“S&P’s outlook certainly adds to motivation in Washington to confront our fiscal challenges,” said Tony Fratto, who served as a White House and U.S. Treasury official under President George W. Bush. “If economic authorities here fail to put in place a credible deficit reduction plan over the next two years, the concern is justified.”

Austan Goolsbee, Obama’s chief economic adviser, rejected the S&P’s negative outlook as a “political judgment” that doesn’t deserve “too much weight.”

“They are saying their political judgment is that over the next two years they didn’t see a political agreement” to reduce long-term deficits, Goolsbee, chairman of the Council of Economic Advis-

Chris DeWolfe, a co-founder of Myspace, is now running MindJolt, an ambitious upstart gaming company that has become profitable. revenue of $856 million.

Since then, Myspace has tumbled spectacularly.

After losing the social media crown to Facebook in late 2009, Myspace hemorrhaged users and cash, prompting its parent company to cut its staff and, finally, put it up for sale this year.

Ambitious underdog Although the capricious nature of the social Web led to the rapid descent of Myspace, its founders hope the same fluidity will work in their favor. MindJolt is an underdog in a multibilliondollar online gaming market dominated by names like Zynga, the creator of Farmville, and Electronic Arts.

With its latest acquisitions, MindJolt is building its user network and breaking into the increasingly lucrative mobile entertainment market.

Hallpass Media, a gaming portal, will add 4 million monthly users and about 1,500 Web-based games to MindJolt’s portfolio. Its other purchase, Social Gaming Network, a creator of several popular iPhone and Android games (with 30 million downloads), will give MindJolt an edge in mobile devices. The deals will also push the gaming portal into the business of creating its own games, making it a closer competitor to larger, hitdriven studios like Zynga.

As young gaming companies

ers, told Bloomberg Television. “I don’t think that the S&P’s political judgment is right.”

Obama has proposed cutting $4 trillion in cumulative deficits within 12 years through a combination of spending cuts and tax increases. The administration is resisting Republican calls for swifter cuts, while also pushing for a set of rules to enforce spending reductions over time.

Goolsbee said Obama and Republican congressional leaders are “pretty close” in the deficit reduction targets they have announced. Each has set a $4 trillion target, though House Republicans have a time line of 10 years and the White House proposal would cumulatively cut that amount over 12 years.

House Majority Leader Eric Cantor called the S&P warning “a wake-up call for those in Washington asking Congress to blindly increase the debt limit.”

S&P’s negative outlook “makes clear that the debt-limit increase proposed by the Obama administration must be accompanied by meaningful fiscal reforms that immediately reduce federal spending and stop our nation from digging itself further into debt,” the Virginia Republican said in a statement.

S&P said it wasn’t taking a stand on the right mix of spending and revenue measures, saying only that any agreement must win the acceptance of a “cross section of leaders in both political parties” to be credible.

Confidence overseas Sovereign credit quality has gained prominence as European countries from Greece to Portugal struggle to finance their debt. The Group of 20 nations named the U.S. as one of seven large economies that will face deeper scrutiny so their politics don’t derail a global expansion.

Overseas investors hold about half of the roughly $9 trillion in outstanding marketable U.S. debt, including $1.2 trillion held by China. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner has said the United States shouldn’t be borrowing “from the Chinese” and other foreign investors to finance tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans.

like MindJolt rush into the market, some analysts say, it will be difficult for them to compete with well-capitalized giants.

Despite the challenges, DeWolfe is taking a lesson from his experience at Myspace as he moves forward with MindJolt.

In a recent telephone interview, DeWolfe and Colin Digiaro, the chief operating officer and a fellow Myspace founder, were quick to offer a list of Myspace errors, including the early focus on revenue and undisciplined expansion. Since taking the reins at MindJolt, the team has invested heavily in an analytical technology that can measure users’ reactions to ad placements.

But DeWolfe says perhaps his greatest insight comes from selling Myspace to News Corp. in 2005, just two years after Myspace began — and all the distractions that came with being part of a public company.

“Facebook didn’t have an arm tied behind their back. They didn’t have the same pressure,” he said. “Myspace prioritized revenue and profits over user experience.”

That is not to say he wouldn’t consider selling MindJolt at some point.

“We’re are in no hurry with this one. We really want to get it right,” DeWolfe said. However, “If there was a right time and right price down the road — definitely down the road — we would look at it.”

Maintaining investor confidence overseas will be a question of political credibility rather than solvency for the United States, said Lena Komileva, global head of G10 strategy at Brown Brothers Harriman & Co in London.

“In the relative universe of sovereign credits, investors are likely to view that the current episode of U.S. actions lagging behind market expectations as transitory which will keep U.S. risk premia contained,” Komileva said. “The euro remains the epicenter of global systemic risk.”

S&P didn’t mention the $14.29 trillion debt ceiling among the risks affecting the U.S. outlook, and it noted that the U.S. has “unique external flexibility” because the dollar is the world’s most-used currency. The ratings company focused on the political calendar, saying that if current budget negotiations fail, it might not be possible to get an agreement until at least the 2014 budget cycle.

The Treasury Department has said the borrowing limit will be reached no later than May 16, when it will turn to emergency measures that provide borrowing room through about July 8.

Republican leaders in Congress have said they won’t back increasing the debt ceiling unless Obama agrees to more specific steps to trim the budget deficit, estimated to top $1.6 trillion this year.

S&P’s credibility Alan Krueger, the Treasury’s former chief economist and an economics professor at Princeton University in New Jersey, said the record of S&P during the financial crisis has watered down the impact of its pronouncements on the safety of U.S. debt.

“The surprise to me is that the markets paid as much attention to S&P as they have,” Krueger said.

“S&P has no private information, and their track record and judgment have been dismal.”

S&P was too influenced by Wall Street, had insufficient resources and used outdated models to grade mortgage securities that blew up when the U.S. housing market collapsed in 2007, the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations said in an April 1010 report.

Q&A Co n tinued from D1 Why would a downgrade affect borrowing costs in the economy?

The ratings issued by S&P and its main competitors — Moody’s Investors Service and Fitch Ratings — are used by investors to calculate what sort of return they should demand in exchange for the default risk they assume when investing in a given security. A lower rating means a higher chance of default.

The issuer, in this case the U.S. government, would have to pay a higher interest rate to investors to market its lowerrated bonds. Since the government must borrow to pay off existing debt, the cost of that would snowball into an even more costly fix for our fiscal problems.

Q: A:

Q: A:

How would that affect me?

Mortgage interest rates are often pegged to prevailing rates for U.S. government securities, as are other borrowing rates. If your 401(k) retirement plan invests in bonds, you might get returns from rising bond rates. This was reflected in the marketplace on Monday as the interest rate on bonds crept up and stocks lost value.

But rising borrowing rates choke off economic growth. If there’s no political compromise in Washington on taming future deficits, that would be bad for the U.S. economy. And if there is a compromise, it is likely to entail austerity measures that slow economic growth.

Q: A:

But lawmakers will reach agreement eventually, won’t they?

The two political parties are very far apart. Their differences are rooted in deep

federal regulators last week, said Allison Schoenthal, a lawyer at Hogan Lovells in New York.

“Principal reductions I don’t think are going to be agreed to by banks, and I don’t think the banks see a need for a penalty when, in their view, they haven’t done anything wrong,” said Schoenthal, who represents lenders and servicers and isn’t involved in the talks.

Geoff Greenwood, a spokesman for Iowa Attorney General Tom Miller, who leads the negotiations for the states, declined to comment. Dan Frahm, a spokesman for Charlotte, N.C.based Bank of America, and Thomas Kelly, a spokesman for New York-based JPMorgan, didn’t respond to e-mails seeking comment.

The 50 states, along with federal agencies including the Justice Department, seek to set requirements for how banks service loans and conduct home foreclosures.

Last month, the states submitted proposed settlement terms to five mortgage servicers, and have been meeting with bank officials to reach a final settlement. The proposal

called in part for monetary payments by banks to go toward a loan modification program that would reduce loan principals for homeowners.

In a speech to a group of attorneys general earlier this month, Bank of America Chief Executive Officer Brian Moynihan said “broad-based” principal reductions aren’t “a sound policy decision for America.”

“Fairness is a major concern,” he said, according to the prepared text of the speech.

“It’s hard to see how we could justify reducing principal for many delinquent customers who represent a small portion of borrowers, but not for the vast majority of our customers who have stayed current on their loans.”

Any agreement on principal reductions will depend on the size of the writedowns, the incentives for the servicers built into the settlement and other details, which continue to be sorted out, said the person close to the negotiations.

Miller said last month after a meeting between banks and state and federal officials that the two sides had “a long way to go” to reach an agreement.

philosophical disputes over the role of government in society.

It’s quite possible there will be no significant deal on resolving federal finances until after the 2012 elections, and then only if one side gains significant strength.

S&P analysts pointed to ongoing fiscal austerity efforts in France and Great Britain and questioned the lack of similar government financial discipline in the United States.

“We believe there is a material risk that U.S. policymakers might not reach an agreement on how to address mediumand long-term budgetary challenges by 2013; if an agreement is not reached and meaningful implementation does not begin by then, this would in our view render the U.S. fiscal profile meaningfully weaker than that of peer ‘AAA’ ” nations, S&P analysts wrote Monday.

A:

Q: A:

Was the S&P action totally a surprise?

No. In February, PIMCO, the world’s largest bond investment fund, announced it was selling off its U.S. government debt because it didn’t think the return on investment properly reflected the risks of holding U.S. debt. Earlier this month, PIMCO began actually betting against U.S. debt. In a sense, big players in the bond market got ahead of the ratings agencies, which they depend on for guidance.

S&P “should have made this move a long time ago,” said Steven Ricchiuto, the chief economist for Mizuho Securities USA in New York. “Let’s be honest.

Ireland, Portugal, the (debt) issues of Spain are nothing more than a warm-up for what’s in play here. ... If something doesn’t happen, it’s going to be ‘how many warnings do you have to send somebody before they pay attention?’ ”

Q:

How big are our deficits and debt?

The nation’s debt held by the public on Monday totaled $9.67 trillion, while the debt the federal government owes itself stands about $4.6 trillion. The total public debt outstanding stood at $14.3 trillion. The deficit — the shortfall between what government collects in revenues and what it spends in a given year — is projected to come in around $1.6 trillion for the current fiscal year, which ends on Sept.

30.

Q: A:

What are the prospects for a budget deal?

The first real indication may come next month, when the U.S. likely will reach its current $14.3 trillion debt limit. Congress must raise the legal limit on how much the U.S. can borrow, and unless it does so, the U.S. won’t be able to pay its creditors. That would sow financial chaos worldwide, as U.S. bonds are globally regarded as one of the world’s safest investments.

Q: A:

Why does this matter to the broader debt debate?

Republicans, pushed by conservative tea party activists, oppose a “clean” bill that does nothing more than raise the debt ceiling. They hope to extract from Democrats and the Obama administration deeper spending cuts and progress on a long-term deficit-reduction plan as their price for going along with raising the government’s debt limit. Most Democrats oppose the GOP’s approach.

“There is bipartisan opposition in the Senate to raising the debt ceiling unless we do something significant about the debt,” said Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky. “And in terms of what is significant, in my view, the definition of significant is what we do is viewed as credible by the markets, by the American people, and by foreign countries.”

T F PlayBook looks good, but where are the apps?

Winning features But the PlayBook does three impressive things that its rivals — the iPad and the Android tablets — can only dream about.

First, with a special HDMI cable (not included), you can hook it up to a TV or projector, which is great for PowerPoint presentations.

(Apparently they still do those in corporations.)

The iPad does that, but the TV image is identical to the iPad’s screen image. The PlayBook, however, can show two different

The Associated Press

things. On the TV, the audience sees your slides; on the PlayBook, you get to see the traditional PowerPoint cheat sheet of notes and slide thumbnails.

The second cool feature has to do with loading the tablet with your music, photos and music.

Unfortunately, there’s no iTuneslike software to do this automatically. You have to drag files manually from your computer into the PlayBook’s folders (Music, Photos and so on). But once you’ve set up this process using a USB cable, you can do it thereafter over WiFi — wirelessly. The PlayBook can even accept such wireless transfers when it’s in sleep mode, sitting in your purse or briefcase across the room.

Finally, there’s a wild, wireless Bluetooth connection feature called BlackBerry Bridge. In this setup, the PlayBook acts as a giant viewing window onto the contents of a BlackBerry phone. Whatever email, calendar, address book and instant messages are on the BlackBerry now show up on the PlayBook’s much roomier screen — a live, encrypted two-way link.

(Another advantage of pairing

While Apple has been hawking the iPad for more than a year, BlackBerry maker Research In Motion is just getting started with the release of its tablet computer, the PlayBook. the PlayBook with a BlackBerry: The tablet can get online using the BlackBerry’s cellular connection.

You don’t have to pay another $15 or $20 a month for a tethering plan, as you do with iPhones and Android phones. That’s a huge benefit.)

Missing features BlackBerry Bridge is supposed to appeal to the corporate network administrators who are RIM’s bread and butter, because they can deploy PlayBooks without having to worry about security breaches.

Everything they’ve worked so hard to secure on your BlackBerry — e-mail, calendar and so on — stays there. It only appears to be on the PlayBook.

But — are you sitting down? — at the moment, BlackBerry Bridge is the only way to do e-mail, calendar, address book and BlackBerry Messenger on the PlayBook. The PlayBook does not have e-mail, calendar or address book apps of its own. You read that right: RIM

has just shipped a BlackBerry product that cannot do e-mail. It must be skating season in hell.

(RIM says that those missing apps will come this summer.)

What you do get are built-in versions of Documents to Go, for creating and editing Word, Excel and PowerPoint documents. And you get a nice Web browser that plays Flash videos online, which the iPad still can’t do. The PlayBook’s front and back cameras (3 and 5 megapixels) can record stabilized stills and hi-def video.

Unfortunately, there’s no video chatting app, as with Android tablets and the iPad. Similarly, the tablet has GPS, but without turn-by-turn navigation software, it’s not good for much besides the built-in Bing Maps app.

And that’s just the beginning.

For now, the PlayBook’s motto might be, “There’s no app for that.”

No existing apps run on this allnew operating system, not even BlackBerry phone apps. (RIM says an emulator that will run BlackBerry apps will come later this year.)

So the company has decided to start from scratch with an all-new app store for the PlayBook. The company says that it has 3,000 submissions already, in part because it offered a free PlayBook to anyone who’d write an app. But they won’t be revealed until next week.

Will Apple’s aggressive push into publishing be helpful or harmful?

San Jose (Calif.) Mercury News

SAN JOSE, Calif. — Apple’s bold foray into the world of digital publishing could make it the online gatekeeper for newspaper and magazine content, just as it is for music.

But for a plan ostensibly designed to help ailing print publishers sign up new readers and thrive in the digital jungle, the Cupertino, Calif., giant’s new subscription model has met with push-back from the industry, mixed reviews from analysts, and rants from bloggers calling the company everything from monopolist to Mafioso.

“Apple envisions a world,” Forrester Research analyst James McQuivey told the BBC, “in which people don’t consume any kind of digital media without its help.”

The recurring-payment model, which enables Apple to regularly bill a customer’s credit card through the course of a digital subscription, represents a chestthumping move by the company.

And if successful, it could help fatten its coffers significantly.

Not only does Apple take a 30 percent cut for each newspaper or magazine subscriber it enlists through its iTunes store, but it also restricts publishers from selling content for less than they charge through their iPhone and iPad apps, assuring the price within Apple’s walled garden can never be beat.

“If you sign up with them, your hands are tied,” said Ron Adner, associate professor of business administration at the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth College. “Apple’s saying to subscribers, ‘You’ll never have reason to leave because your subscription will always be lowest here.’ But this puts the publishers in a world of pain, and because of that I think Apple’s reputation is taking a hit here.”

The digital newsstand Apple’s not saying much publicly. But its model represents a huge bet that by luring publishers with the prospect of new customers, Apple could position itself as the go-to digital news-

“Apple envisions a world in which people don’t consume any kind of digital media without its help.”

— James McQuivey, analyst, Forrester Research stand, mirroring the way its 2001 iPod launch led to its dominance of online music sales.

Analysts, however, point out a number of potential stumbling blocks. There are concerns about the plan among European antitrust authorities, which the American Antitrust Institute’s Bob Lande says could put “a target on the company.” Some observers even suggest that by playing hardball with publishers, Apple risks driving customers into the arms of competing tablet-makers.

“I think this will ultimately hurt Apple,” said David Wertheimer, executive director of the Entertainment Technology Center at the University of Southern California. “They created all this hope and promise with the iPad as the future of digital-publishing incarnate. Now, they’ve knocked it down with these restrictive rules, and I think that’s somewhat short-sighted.”

Or maybe not. Media analyst Ken Doctor said that “Apple will become A gatekeeper, not THE gatekeeper,” because “core customers who already read a newspaper in print or online are more likely to digitally subscribe through the publisher’s site, while Apple will attract new and younger readers through its Apps Store.”

With some analysts estimating 300 million more tablets will be sold by 2014, the bulk of them iPads, Doctor says, “if this plan works, it could be a very profitable new revenue stream for Apple — you’ve got your hardware, your software, your digital music sales and now your publisher fees.”

He said Apple’s new subscription revenue could reach “hundreds of millions of dollars a year.”

An enticing deal Apple’s new model certainly has its enticements. It offers publishers instant exposure to legions of potential subscribers now loitering in the Apps Store.

And it makes subscribing a snap, through iTunes and its 100 million active credit cards already on file. But it remains unclear what special arrangements, if any, Apple may be making with various print partners.

A handful of publishers have taken the plunge, including Rupert Murdoch of News Corp., whose iPad-only digital newspaper The Daily launched around the same time Apple announced its new plan.

Gregg Hano, vice president and group publisher of the Bonnier Technology Group, which owns Field & Stream, Popular Photography and other wellknown titles, said its decision to offer one-year subscriptions to Popular Science for $14.95 through iTunes resulted in 8,000 new customers in the first three weeks.

“We feel strongly that the subscription model is a step in the right direction,” Hano said. “We think this will be an exciting new business model for publishing, the first in a long series of ways for us to monetize our brands.”

Yet many publishers fear Apple is putting itself between them and their new customers. Subscribers who sign up under the plan are given the option to share their name, e-mail address and ZIP code with the publisher. But if publishers know nothing about those subscribers who declined to share that information, they’ll have no easy way of customizing content and ads to these shadow customers.

“It’s really important to publishers to have access to the people buying their magazines and newspapers,” said Zeke Koch, an Adobe project manager who has worked closely with national publishers on their digital offerings. “That dramatically raises the value of the magazine to advertisers, because readers they know something about are much more valuable than readers they don’t know anything about.”

dozen lame apps in it.)

You should also be aware that this PlayBook is Wi-Fi only. You don’t have the option to get online via a cellular network, as with the rivals from Apple, Motorola and Samsung. (RIM says that 4G versions of the PlayBook will arrive by the end of 2011.)

The PlayBook, then, is convenient, fast, coherently designed.

But in its current, half-baked form, it seems almost silly to try to assess it, let alone buy it. Remember, the primary competition is an iPad — same price, but much thinner, much bigger screen and a library of 300,000 apps.

In that light, does it make sense to buy a fledgling tablet with no built-in e-mail or calendar, no cellular connection, no videochat, Skype, no Notes app, no GPS app, no videochat, no Pandora radio and no Angry Birds?

You should also know that even now, the day the PlayBook goes on sale, the software is buggy and still undergoing feverish daily revision. And the all-important BlackBerry Bridge feature is still in beta testing. It’s missing important features, like the ability to view e-mail file attachments or click a link in an e-mail.

If all of this gets fixed, and the apps arrive, and the PlayBook can survive this year’s onslaught of rival tablets, then it may one day wind up in the pantheon of greats. For now, though, there are too many features that live only in RIM’s playbook — and not enough in its PlayBook.

Listen, I’ll be straight with you.

I realize that tablets are crazy hot right now, that 2011 is the Year of the iPad Clone and that every company and its brother is rushing one to market. But I’m sorry.

I’m not going to review every one of the 85 tablets that will arrive this year; it’s only April, and I’ve already got Tablet Fatigue. I’m not going to review the Electrolux tablet, the Polaroid tablet, the Sunoco tablet, the Kellogg’s tablet....

The BlackBerry tablet, though, seems worth a look. The tech world’s been hyperventilating over this thing. Called the PlayBook, it’s a seven-inch touchscreen tablet ($500, $600 and $700 for the 16, 32- and 64-gigabyte models).

The iPad, of course, is a 10incher, but seven has its virtues.

It’s much easier to hold with one hand, for example. In principle, you ought to be able to slip the PlayBook into the breast pocket of a jacket — but incredibly, the PlayBook is about half an inch too wide. Whoever muffed that design spec should be barred from the launch party.

Still, the PlayBook looks and feels great: hard rubberized back, brilliant, super-responsive multi-touch screen, solid heft (0.9 pounds).

Its software is based on an operating system called QNX, which Research in Motion, the BlackBerry’s maker, bought for its industrial stability. (“It runs nuclear power plants,” says a product manager without a trace of current-events irony.)

Nor is QNX the only other company that lent a hand. Palm and Apple were also involved, although they didn’t know it. The PlayBook software is crawling with borrowed ideas.

For example, to remove or rear-

range apps, you hold your finger down on one app icon until all icons begin to pulse (hello, iPad!).

And to close a program, you swipe your finger upward from the bottom bezel to turn all app window into “cards,” and then flick one upward off the screen (hello, Palm Pre!).

There are no buttons on the front at all, and the top edge has only On, Play/Pause and volume keys. Instead, you navigate by swiping your finger from the black border, which seems unduly wide, into the screen itself.

Swiping upward reveals your app icons (and turns your apps into “cards”). Swiping left or right cycles among open multitasking apps. And swiping down reveals an app’s toolbar, if it has one.

Unfortunately, there’s no way of knowing beforehand if a toolbar exists, so you often swipe futilely and feel silly. Similarly, if app icons completely fill the home screen, you can swipe upward to reveal what’s below the screen — but you won’t know if there are more until you swipe, because no scrollbar appears beforehand to let you know there are more below the screen.

around, and you do your business where you have the income and are so occupied. I mean we hardly had the time to even think about what we’re going to do the next. We had assignments for two years in advance, always.

So it’s hard to think ahead of two years.

Christian Heeb: I guess through the recession, the prices came down this much in Bend.

Regula Heeb: And everybody was raving, “Well, you have to look out for property now, and now is the time.” And last August, we said, OK. We were just on the drive to our CPA, I guess, and he’s just down the road, and we saw this and we pulled in — “Oh, that’s kind of neat.” Because the architecture, it’s more — what is the — Christian Heeb: Contemporary.

Regula Heeb: Yeah, it’s more contemporary. We thought, well, this would be something that might work.

Continued from D1 It’s like a platform for photographers here to showcase their work, to get involved with the workshops, with the studio. Also, for people that don’t really make a lot of money and don’t have their own studio, they can rent a studio here. Or (if) they don’t have a photo gallery, … they can use the photo gallery. They can do lectures here. It’s just a place where any type of photographer basically can do whatever they want to.

Q: A:

What were you doing before you decided to open it up last month?

Regula Heeb: Photographers always for the last 20-plus years. That’s all we did.

Christian Heeb: Yeah, professional travel photographers.

Q: A:

What inspired you to do it? To me it seems out of nowhere.

Regula Heeb: Well, no, it wasn’t out of nowhere. We just never had the time to look into it. As you know, you run

You were talking about always wanting to do something like this. What was the vision you had?

Christian Heeb: In Switzerland we had a gallery.

We were pretty young. My dad had an old house, an 800-yearold house in the city center (in St. Gallen, Switzerland) … and he basically remodeled the whole thing. … There was a stairway like five stories high. And the stairway was pretty nice and white and everything. And we figured, well, why don’t we just do a gallery there, because it doesn’t cost anything. It’s there.

So I just started a little gallery.

Regula Heeb: The good thing is the stairway is open during business hours. We had our office on one of the floors, so if anyone needed attention, we were right there anyway.

Christian Heeb: And we had the openings there. And once a month we had a huge party. I think we hardly sold anything.

Just a few pieces. But once a month we had a good party. It was just great. … And that’s why I had the idea. … Initially I wanted to have a cafe thing.

Regula Heeb: But there are so many cafes in town .

tainly draw criticism from stockholders who argue it is little more than a symbolic effort to raise the bank’s stock price.

On Monday, when the broader markets fell sharply, the company’s stock was unchanged at $4.42 a share.

Citigroup’s earnings were tempered by the same factors that weighed on the earnings of Bank of America and JPMorgan Chase, which reported their firstquarter results last week.

Traditional banking businesses have been hit by rising foreclosure costs, new financial regulations and a slowdown in growth for home loans. Wells Fargo and several big regional players are expected to report similar trends when they announce their results later this week.

But Citigroup, whose stock price plummeted to below $1 during the financial crisis, is under intense pressure to show improvement. For the past three years, Pandit has been engaged in an ambitious plan to overhaul the troubled company, streamlining its sprawling operations and

changing it from a global financial supermarket into a leaner and more focused lender.

Citi is close to completing its plan to shrink its balance sheet.

Today, the pile of assets that Citi plans to sell or divest is down to $337 billion, less than half of its peak of $827 billion in early 2008. CitiFinancial, its large consumer lending franchise, is one of its last major businesses to go on sale, and several private equity firms are in the final stages of bidding.

The bank also identified assets worth an additional $12.7 billion that it will sell in order to free capital, resulting in a pretax charge of $709 million when it booked the assets at their current market value.

“We are very much on track,” John Gerspach, Citigroup’s chief financial officer, said on a conference call with reporters. “We are going to continue to make progress but it will be at a reduced pace from where we were in 2010.”

Federal regulators acknowledged Citi’s progress when they

Citigroup Continued from D1 Expenses also continued to rise, in part because of new business investments as well as higher legal costs.

Citi’s results were buoyed by the release of $3.3 billion in reserves that had previously been set aside to cover losses on credit cards and other loans. That helped offset deeper losses in its domestic mortgage business and a weaker performance from its trading and investment banking groups.

“Our core businesses performed well despite the difficult economy,” Vikram Pandit, Citigroup’s chief executive, wrote in an internal memorandum to employees. “We’ve come a long way — and we continue to move forward.” Pandit is expected to give a fuller report Thursday at Citigroup’s annual shareholder meeting in Manhattan.

The bank is also planning a 10-for-1 reverse stock split early next month that will almost cer-

Bend, it would just be nice to have a place as a community center where we actually like to hang out, or go talk about photography, get together with people, you know, in town. This center gives us something to do and connects us with the larger community.

Q:

Would you like to see it have a 30-year existence or something like that? Do you imagine that happening?

Christian Heeb: I don’t know. I don’t really have that much hope for the planet. So how could I? (Laughs). Sure, it’s fine. … But I think there are so many issues on the planet (that) looking ahead in 30 years, it’s impossible.

Regula Heeb: No, but in that sense, yes, that’s what we hope for. I mean, my hope is that once we are not able to travel that much anymore, or don’t want to, or don’t have to travel that much anymore, we can spend more time here, and, yeah, as he was saying, hang around here, talk to all the people, have a community.

approved Pandit’s plan to reinstate the dividend in early May at a token one-tenth of a penny per share. But unlike several major competitors that announced large share buyback programs, Pandit has said the bank is unlikely to buy back stock until sometime in 2012.

Meanwhile, the company faces rising costs, especially in its loan servicing business. And unlike JPMorgan Chase, Citigroup did not book a large upfront charge to reflect the higher operating costs required to meet the new servicing requirements outlined in a regulatory enforcement order issued last week.

Instead, Citi officials expect operating costs for the mortgage business to rise about $25 million to $35 million per quarter as it hires as many as 500 new employees to handle the increased volume of foreclosures.

The bank also expects to take additional charges tied to the overhaul of its servicing business, which could total as much as $40 million to $50 million over the next few quarters.

Greece Continued from D1 The bond markets have taken note as economists, as well as German politicians, have emphasized a restructuring solution that will require bond investors and banks to take a loss on their debt holdings. On Monday, the yield on 10-year Greek bonds hit a high of 14.3 percent. Yields on Spanish and Portuguese debt also shot up as electoral gains made by an anti-euro party in Finland fed concern that a possible 80 billion euro plan to rescue Portugal — which requires unanimous assent by European Union countries — might be jeopardized.

All of which reflects an emerging view, although it has not yet been officially stated, that it makes little economic sense for the monetary fund and the European Union to keep lending money to Greece so that the government can pay back private investors at double-digit interest rates — especially as Greek citizens suffer the effects of a severe austerity program.

“Behind the curtains, they are looking for a smooth restructuring,” said Theodore Pelagidis, an economist in Athens and the author of recent book on the Greek economy’s collapse. “The basic reality is that we cannot service our debt, and if Greece does not see a radical solution, it will consume itself.”

Proponents of restructuring say banks have had more than a year to prepare by either selling positions at a loss or raising capital. The markets, proponents argue, have already factored in a restructuring, so why wait until 2013 for investors to take their first losses, as proposed by European leaders in the structure of the future bailout funds?

Until recently, France and Germany — and especially the European Central Bank — have been adamantly opposed to any restructuring that would require investors to take “a haircut,” or reduced returns, because of the effect this might have on French, German and Greek banks.

Lately, however, there have been signs that once-closed Hospice Home Health Hospice House Transitions

minds are opening up to alternative solutions.

The German finance minister, Wolfgang Schauble, raised the possibility of a Greek restructuring last week in comments to a German newspaper. He also alluded to a coming European Union study on the sustainability of Greek debt that would guide Europe’s conduct on the issue.

It is not clear what the conclusion of the report, expected to be published in June, will be. One option that has attracted some attention, though, is a plan that would ask bond holders to trade in their current paper for debt with lower rates and longer maturities.

Such a proposal, which was successfully used by Uruguay in 2003, would, in theory, minimize banking losses and extend debt payments further into the future, easing Greece’s financing burden in the near term.

“It’s being talked about more, and the official sector should want to do this,” said Lee Buchheit, a lawyer for Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton, who has worked on debt restructuring deals dating back to the 1980s. In Greece’s case, however, “the worry is that it may not go far enough. This is a country where debt is 150 percent of GDP.” Buchheit, who recently cowrote a ‘paper on possible variations for Greece’s debt crisis, says an approach like this would be similar to a solution reached on Latin American debt in the 1980s in that it would give creditors and debtors more time to prepare themselves for an eventual restructuring.

But before banks accepted such a deal, they would require extra cash, which in today’s political environment might be difficult to come by.

They will also need to be persuaded to, in effect, increase their exposure to Greece at a time when the country’s efforts at reviving its economy seem to be stumbling amid continued difficulties in raising the revenue it needs to reduce its deficit.

“Greece is a symbol of the crisis,” said Pelagidis, the economist.

“We don’t need another bailout — we need creditors to take a hit.”

Google invests $100 million

into Shepherds Flat Wind Farm The Associated Press NEW YORK — Google Inc. has invested another $100 million in a clean energy project.

The funding for the Shepherds Flat Wind Farm in Oregon brings Google’s total clean-energy investments to more than $350 million and represents the company’s latest attempt to support reliable new ways to power its expanding data centers.

Data centers, or server farms, are notorious power hogs. And Google has many of them. The simple act of typing in a Google search taps into Google’s com-

“This will be the first commercial wind farm in the U.S. to deploy, at scale, turbines that use permanent magnet generators — tech-speak for evolutionary turbine technology that will improve efficiency, reliability and grid connection capabilities,” Google said in a blog post.

“Though the technology has been installed outside the U.S., it’s an important, incremental step in lowering the cost of wind energy over the long term in the U.S.” Google shares fell $3.86 to close at to $526.84.

puting resources — and the grid that supplies energy to those machines.

Google also invested last year in a project to line the sea floor off the East Coast with electrical cables to send power from offshore wind farms back onto land. Building capacity is one of the major costs of clean energy projects. Google has also invested in solar energy.

Google says it’s interested in the Shepherds Flat project “not only because of its size and scale, but also because it uses advanced technology.”

At Home With ... nordic team Dagmar and Nils Eriksson In this monthly feature, we visit with well-known Central Oregonians and get a glimpse into their lives at home.

By Penny Nakamura For The Bulletin

For 32 years, they’ve been each other’s best friends and best cheerleaders, and together they’ve created a winning team both in business and on the nordic trails.

Dagmar Eriksson, 66, credits her husband, Nils, for being the best cross-country ski technician and waxer, and she has the gold medals to prove it. Less than a month ago, Dagmar was on top of the podium not once, but three times at the Masters World Cup nordic races in British Columbia.

“I was standing at the podium, and the Canadian skier who was on my right leaned over to me and asked me what Olympics I had been to in the past,” explained Dagmar, with a giggle. “I told her I had never been to the Olympics, and that I had just started nordic skiing 15 years ago. That was the ultimate compliment, that she thought I had been to an Olympics.”

Cleaning your deck? Power wash with care

By Leon Pantenburg For The Bulletin

Spring is here. That’s what the calender says, what people are predicting, and what some of the budding trees and plants are promising.

But while it may still be too early and cold to do much outside, there is a lot in the backyard that will need to be done soon.

One job that can be done right now is preparation for sprucing up that wooden deck. Maybe it is dirty and grubby from the winter’s accumulation of snow, pine needles, leaves and dirt, and just needs a good cleaning. Or this may be the year the whole structure needs to be stripped down, sanded, and restained or painted.

Regardless, the project can be started by power washing the whole surface. A power washer is a machine that pumps water and produces a high-pressure stream that removes the grime.

But don’t just rent one and have at it. If you have never used a power washer and don’t really know what to do, you could actually cause damage that makes the deck look worse.

What’s the matter?

Can’t take a ’choke?

In that case, read on to learn how best to enjoy these delectable morsels

Illustration and story by Jan Roberts-Dominguez For The Bulletin

n artichoke, above all else, is a wonder to behold. There’s that beautiful shape. That rich green color. The way you have to slowly pluck it, leaf by leaf, to reach the succulent center. For dipping purposes, you’ve got your mayonnaise, some melted butter or maybe just a light vinaigrette. But that’s really all you need to wow a roomful of guests.

But how do you cook ’em? My theory is, if you want to avoid watery artichokes — especially when it comes to the heart — then you should cook them with the stem pointing skyward, in just a few inches of water so the heart portion is steamed rather than boiled.

Once they’re cooked, there’s still the controversy over how to eat them. Most newcomers to the world of artichoke cuisine can’t believe we go to all this effort for such little payoff. After all, at least 85 percent of an artichoke is inedible — you’re only after that tender morsel at the tip of each leaf, and oh yeah, that succulent heart.

Anyway, to eat an artichoke, my approach is to simply pull leaves off from the main globe one at a time, beginning with the smallest ones around the stem, and work my way toward the center. When you pull off a leaf, you’ll notice a plump little portion of artichoke meat at the base of the leaf. If this is your genuine first artichoke, then I highly recommend tasting it au naturel. No mayonnaise or butter or other type of sauce. Just you and a pure artichoke experience. To do this, scrape off that plump tip by gently biting down on the leaf slightly in front of the edible portion and scraping it through your front teeth.

The fibrous leaf comes out; the tender pulp stays behind.

See Artichokes / E2

A

How to cook an artichoke: 1. Pull off lower, outer petals at the stem end; cut off top third of artichokes to form a flat surface (a serrated knife works well).

2. Cut stems to one inch or less.

3. Stand artichokes on the cut top portion, with stems up, in large non-aluminum pan (aluminum discolors the artichokes) with enough water to come no more than about one-third of the way up the side of the artichokes.

4. Add salt. Figure on about 1 teaspoon for 2 to 4 artichokes.

For extra flavor, I love to add a couple wedges of fresh lemon, a few sprigs of fresh thyme, 4 or 5 coarsely chopped fresh garlic cloves (no need to peel them), and a couple of teaspoons of black peppercorns.

5. Cover and boil gently until the stem end feels tender when poked with a fork or sharp tip of a knife. To be absolutely sure it’s cooked, you can pluck one of the artichokes from the boiling water with a pair of tongs and gently tug at one of the central leaves. It will pull out easily when the artichoke is cooked.

Alternately, place prepared artichokes in steaming basket (stem ends up), cover and cook over boiling water until a petal near center pulls out easily.

Medium and jumbo artichokes take 25 to 35 minutes to boil, or about 35 to 45 minutes to steam. Don’t overcook them, however; they’ll go mushy and watery.

Artichokes

GREEN PEPPERCORN SAUCE

Continued from E1 For the remaining leaves, you certainly have the option of continuing to eat them in their unsauced state (why pick up any bad habits if you don’t have to?). Or you can do what most artichoke lovers do, and that is, justify the consumption of vast amounts of mayonnaise and butter by dipping the pulpy tip of your artichoke leaves into one of those offerings before eating.

By the way, you’ll want to experiment with the leaf orientation as it’s inserted into your mouth.

That is, try some leaves with the pulpy portion facing up, and some with the pulpy portion facing down. One way will feel more enjoyable than the other, and that’s how you’ll inevitably continue to eat them for the rest of your life.

Anyway, once you reach the fuzzy center, you’re ready to enjoy the ultimate reward, the heart.

Scrape the “choke” from the meaty bottom by using a spoon or knife. The big, thick, disk of artichoke you’re left with is the heart.

Using fingers or fork, dip portions of it into your dipping sauce (unless you’re being pure), and enjoy!

Of course, if you love artichokes as much as I do, then a little variety is eventually called for.

The smaller ones — those called “babies” or “artichoke hearts” — can be incorporated into pasta sauces, vegetable stews and salads, and eaten in their entirety, while medium to jumbo-sized globes can be stuffed. As you’ll see from the accompanying recipes, this opens up a whole new realm of artichoke cookery.

Perhaps you’ve already noticed that some really fine-quality artichokes have been arriving in local supermarkets. But you still have to be vigilant when it comes to quality. Remember, in order to pick the absolute freshest, administer my “squeeze and squeak” test: When you gently press around the circumference with your fingers, a truly fresh artichoke will emit a delicate little squeak. As the season evolves, I’ll be posting more recipes for artichoke sauces and preparations on my blog at janrd.com.

MUSTARD-DILL SAUCE Makes about 1¼ cups sauce.

1 C sour cream 2 TBS Dijon-style mustard 2 TBS mayonnaise 2 tsp fresh dill weed (or a scant ¾ tsp dry dill weed, crumbled) ½ tsp fresh thyme (or ¼ tsp dry thyme, crumbled) Combine the sour cream, mustard, mayonnaise, dill weed and thyme. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes for the flavors to meld.

Makes about ¾ cup sauce.

Use a serrated knife to cut the tip of the artichoke leaves off to create a flat surface, and cook stem-side up to avoid a watery heart.

Whisk together the mayonnaise, vinegar and Worcestershire sauce. Whisk in the olive oil in a slow and steady stream.

Stir in the peppercorns and red peppers, then add salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate for about one hour, if possible, to allow flavors to develop (may be prepared up to 24 hours ahead; bring to room temperature to serve).

SESAME-GINGER SAUCE Makes about 1 cup sauce.

3 TBS soy sauce 3 TBS white or red wine vinegar ¼ C toasted sesame seeds 2 lg cloves garlic, peeled and finely minced 2 tsp finely minced fresh ginger root ¼ tsp prepared Chinese mustard 3 TBS canola oil 3 TBS sesame oil

Artichokes served with Creamy Mustard-Lemon Sauce.

CREAMY MUSTARD-LEMON SAUCE

Detroit Free Press

It’s rare that I don’t give a recipe that lists brie as an ingredient a second look.

When this soft, creamy cheese is at peak ripeness, it tastes rich and slightly tangy. It’s hard just to have one bite or one spread of melted brie on a baguette slice, but you really should. Brie can have a butterfat content of more than 45

4 med artichokes 4 garlic cloves, minced 1 ⁄3 C minced fresh basil ¼ C minced chives ¼ tsp finely grated lemon peel (outer yellow portion only) 1½ C dry white

½ C water ½ tsp salt 1 bay leaf 2 garlic cloves, peeled and crushed 1 slice onion 1 TBS olive oil

Prepare artichokes for cooking as described in “How to cook an artichoke” on Page E1.

Combine the 4 cloves of minced garlic with the basil, chives and lemon peel, and using a heaping tablespoon per artichoke, stuff the artichokes by squeezing bits of the mixture between the leaves, pushing it as far down between the leaves as you can.

Combine the wine, water, salt, bay leaf, crushed garlic, onion and olive oil in a pan large enough to hold the artichokes, and stand the artichokes, stem-side down, in the pan. Bring the liquid to a simmer, cover and simmer about 35 minutes, or until the artichokes are tender and the leaves pull away easily.

Allow to cool and serve. Leftovers will keep refrigerated for a couple of days.

percent, and some triple-cream bries have a higher percentage.

Often you will find brie served with fruit or light crackers. If it’s ripe, it’s soft but not totally spreadable. To soften it more, you can serve it en croute. Take a wheel of brie, wrap it in a sheet of puff pastry and bake until golden brown.

Once baked, the rich, creamy cheese oozes out when you slice into it. It makes for a grand appe-

tizer that guests will love.

Brie has a short shelf life because it ripens as it ages, so pay attention to the package “best by” or “use by” date.

This cheese ripens from the outer edges to the center, so you can determine if brie is mature by lightly touching the center of the cheese to see if it is soft. It also should look a little plump.

At major grocery stores, you will find brie in small and large wheels or triangular-shaped segments. Brie is in the soft-ripened cheese category and has a distinct white rind. The rind is actually white mold; it’s edible, but you can cut it off if you prefer.

In today’s recipe, the brie makes

⁄3 C mayonnaise ¼ C Dijon-style mustard 2 TBS lemon juice 1

2 TBS olive oil Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Whisk together the mayonnaise, mustard and lemon juice.

Whisk in the olive oil, then add salt and pepper to taste.

CHICKEN-STUFFED ARTICHOKES Makes 4 servings.

4 artichokes, cooked as described in “How to cook an artichoke” on Page E1 2 C cooked and diced chicken ½ C shredded Monterey Jack cheese ¼ C chopped green onions ¼ C grated Parmesan cheese

¼ C fine dry bread crumbs ¼ C milk 1 egg, beaten 1 TBS chopped parsley ½ tsp salt 1 tsp paprika ¼ tsp dried tarragon, crumbled ¼ tsp dried oregano, crumbled

While artichokes are cooking, combine remaining ingredients; mix well and set aside.

When the cooked artichokes can be easily handled, prepare each one for stuffing by gently spreading the leaves open and scraping out the center “choke” with a small spoon. Spoon one fourth of the chicken mixture into the center of each artichoke, and place them in a baking dish. Bake, covered, in a 350-degree oven for 15 minutes, remove cover and bake 15 minutes longer, or until hot and bubbly.

up part of a sauce that just lightly coats the penne pasta. Crimini mushrooms and arugula also add interesting flavors.

Criminis — a brown variety of the white mushroom — have more of that hearty, earthy taste that I prefer. You can find criminis, sometimes called Italian mushrooms, at most grocery stores.

The sharp, peppery flavor of arugula gives this dish an unexpected edge. Arugula has soft, delicate notched leaves. It can be used with other salad greens, put on sandwiches or stirred into soups. You also can sauté arugula as you would spinach, and serve it as a bed of cooked greens with poultry, meats and fish.

This is basically a plain ol’ cooked artichoke. But the flavoring components are off the charts because prior to putting the artichokes into the pot with some flavored water, you stuff bits of garlic, basil and chives down between the leaves. Now, it does require cooking the artichoke in the complete opposite position than I have previously described (stem down rather than up), but it’s not such a disastrous thing, and like I said, the flavor is fabulous.

Place a low-sided cooking vessel on top, fill it with boiling water or broth, and you’re ready to da been lo, as they say in Cantonese, or “to do next to the fire.”

And what a to-do it is. The wide array of fresh ingredients crowding the table provides a tableau of abundance, while the steaming pot exudes warmth and homeyness. The few-bitesat-a-time pace makes hot pot a leisurely and social affair, with plenty of time for conversation.

And although everything is doit-yourself, the experience is anything but individualistic. Like insistent Chinese aunties, experienced diners take turns fishing out ingredients, and plopping them in each others’ bowls.

HOT POT ADDITIONS: Leafy vegetables, such as napa cabbage, bok choy or spinach Other vegetables, such as mushrooms, daikon radish, peeled and sliced lotus root, or bean sprouts Starches, such as peeled and cubed taro root or parboiled egg noodles Seafood, such as shrimp, shucked oysters, sliced and cleaned squid Meats, such as chicken, beef or lamb, sliced paper thin Vegetarian options, such as tofu, vegetarian dumplings or eggs for poaching

For a southern-style broth, add boiling water or chicken broth to the hot pot, or blend an equal mixture of the two. (If using only water, add a dash of oil to the pot.) For a Mongolian or northernstyle hot pot, combine the chicken broth with a packet of Sichuan or Mongolian hot pot base (available at Asian grocery stores).

Arrange the table with the simmering hot pot in the middle, raw ingredients on the side, and individual place settings with bowls, chopsticks and strainers.

Make a dipping sauce by blending 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon sa cha sauce, 1½ teaspoons vinegar, a pinch of scallions and a dash of sesame oil. Or create a “sauce bar” on a side table with various ingredients so guests can mix their own.

Using cooking chopsticks, place batches of raw ingredients into the simmering water, being careful not to overcrowd the pot. Use the strainers to scoop out cooked tidbits, bearing in mind that fresh seafood and paper-thin meat slices cook very quickly. Serve with dipping sauces. Repeat until everyone has had their fill. If the broth isn’t too spicy, drop in noodles and offer bowls of the flavorful soup at the end of the meal.

Hot pot essentials To make a Chinese hot pot dinner at home, you’ll need the following: • An electric hot pot cooker or tabletop gas burner with low-sided pot.

• Long wooden chopsticks for handling raw ingredients. Use a different pair for eating.

• Small sieve or individual strainer baskets (about $1 at Asian grocery stores).

• Small bowls, one for each diner and a few extra to hold discards, such as shrimp shells.

• Chopsticks and porcelain spoons for each diner.

Ask a cook: You say Parmesan, I say Parmigiano

By Kathleen Purvis

By Stephanie Witt Sedgwick I love to play around with ingredients and see how many different ways I can prepare the same items. In the winter, I took peppers, onions and pork tenderloin and made a stew.

Now that it’s spring, I want to grill, so I’ve turned the same ingredients into a skewer. The peppers and onions become a base of the dish after they are slowly sauteed to bring out

By Michelle Chan In Japan, it’s called shabu shabu. In Malaysia, it’s known as “steamboat” and in Switzerland, fondue chinoise. But to legions of Chinese and Chinese-Americans, it’s simply hot pot — and it’s the epitome of communal eating and window-steaming goodness.

A steaming pot of broth takes center stage at the family dinner table, surrounded by mounds of ready-to-cook raw vegetables, gleaming piles of fresh prawns and meat, and tangled heaps of noodles. As the dinner progresses, ingredients are added to the pot, where they merrily simmer away. Cooked tidbits are fished out with chopsticks and dipped in flavorful sauces, and at the end, noodles are added to turn the now-flavorful broth into a hearty soup.

Whether you opt for a lambcentric Mongolian style, the bracingly spicy northern version or the mild southern style, there are endless provincial offshoots.

According to legend, it was Genghis Khan who invented the dish, when he was seized by a powerful hankering for mutton midway through a military campaign.

“It’s not easy to cook when traveling or fighting a war,” says Daniel Huang, manager of Union City’s Little Sheep Mongolian Hot Pot, relating the apocryphal tale. “So they made a nice broth, cooked (lamb) in the pot and made a good meal out of that.”

After eating 10 bowls of the stuff, the famous Mongolian leader handily won his next battle, ensuring the popularity of hot pot for centuries to come.

Today, China’s most famous hot-pot recipe hails from the city of Chongqing, near Sichuan, where the dish appears in restaurants, homes and at events such as a 2009 hot pot feast, which drew 200,000 diners. The Chong qing hot pot, which uses a traditional local soup known as ma la tang, has spawned numerous variations in cities to the north, including Beijing and Taiwan. The addictive ma la broth features a shockingly red slick of chili oil, which floats on top, chili pods and bits of burning Sichuan peppercorn, hence its name, which translates to “numbing and hot.”

While Mongolian and Northern hot pots tend to be oilier, spicier and more meat-focused, Southern-style hot pot is lighter fare, with an emphasis on seafood, including prawns and whole oysters. The Southern version features fresh vegetables, as well, including napa cabbage, mushrooms and bok choy. But with hot pot, the possibilities are limited only by one’s imagination, and aficionados regularly experiment with such ingredients as tofu, wontons, meatballs, fish cakes and even cubes of Spam.

The diverse assortment of ingredients, combined with an infinite variety of dipping sauces, makes hot pot a completely individual experience.

Although Bay Area hot pot restaurants, such as San Jose’s Wuji Mala House and Richmond’s Coriya Hotpot City, abound, the dish is easy to make at home with a few specialized accouterments. The key is the pot itself, which comes in electric or openflame versions. Electric hot pots, which run about $70, resemble slow cookers, and some offer dual containers to hold spicy and

cheeses. Only cheese made in Italy can be called ParmigianoReggiano. Cheese made anywhere else, including America, is simply called Parmesan.

Parmigiano-Reggiano is higher quality and usually will cost more.

Romano is the designation for a style of cheese that originated

near Rome. The most common one found in America is Pecorino Romano. It’s tangier and dryer, but will work in most recipes calling for a Parmesan-style cheese.

Whichever one you use, it’s best to get a block of cheese and grate it yourself. It will have a fresher flavor and a better con-

sistency for melting into a sauce.

Pre-grated cheeses are often very dry.

Whatever you do, avoid the stuff in the green cans. It’s like cheese-flavored sawdust.

Heat 3 tablespoons of the oil, garlic, sweet paprika, smoked Spanish paprika and salt to taste in a small skillet.

When the oil starts to bubble, immediately reduce the heat to medium-low. Let the mixture cook for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.

Place the pork cubes in a resealable plastic food storage bag; add the cooled paprika-garlic oil marinade. Seal and massage so the pork is thoroughly coated. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours and up to 12 hours.

Prepare the grill for direct heat. If using a gas grill, preheat to medium-high (450 degrees).

For a medium-hot fire, you should be able to hold your hand about 6 inches above the coals for about 4 or 5 seconds. Lightly coat a grill rack with oil and place it on the grill.

While the grill is preheating, cook the peppers and onion: Heat a large nonstick griddle or pan over medium-high heat. Coat with the remaining tablespoon of oil. Add the onion and peppers; season with salt to taste. Reduce the heat to medium; cook the vegetables for 10 to 12 minutes, stirring and adjusting the heat so they cook but don’t brown, until they have cooked through.

Thread the pork cubes evenly on 5 skewers.

Lay aluminum foil on the grill so the parts of the skewers not covered with pork will be shielded from the heat by the foil. Place the skewers on the grill, positioning them so the meat is over the heat and the skewer is protected by the foil. Grill the skewers for 5 to 6 minutes on one side until browned. Use tongs and a spatula to turn the skewers over. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes, until the pork is cooked through. The internal temperature of the pork should be 160 degrees. Remove from the grill and let the meat rest for 5 minutes.

To serve, divide the onion-pepper mixture evenly among individual plates. Top each portion with a skewer of pork. If using the sour cream, put it in a small resealable plastic food storage bag and seal. Snip off 1 of the bottom corners of the bag to create a way to pipe a thin line of sour cream over each skewer.

Next week: Showers Keeping your fiberglass stall nice and clean.

Eriksson Continued from E1 When Dagmar tells this story, she still seems incredulous, but her Swedish husband, 75, is all smiles and is clearly very proud of his wife’s accomplishments.

“When we were in Canada, I was hanging out with the Swedes, and they all asked me, where did you find this skier?

Because she beat all the Swedish skiers there, and you know that’s what we’re known for,” said Nils with a robust laugh. He should know, having come from Sweden as a ski jumper and a nordic combined skier “back in the day.”

Dagmar and Nils both say their life experiences shaped the people they’ve become today, and without these experiences, even the painful ones, they may not have each other, or found a life in Central Oregon.

Dagmar’s journey to the top of the international podium earlier this year was a process that brought a young girl from Hamburg, Germany, to Switzerland, New York, San Francisco and finally to Bend.

The irony of her humble beginnings is not lost on Dagmar, as she explains how she lost her father during World War II, and how the family had to move to Hamburg after the Russians divided her country. She lost her mother when she was 16, and it forced her to grow up early, and to appreciate her family even more, she said.

“When the (Berlin) wall came down, I went to the reunification in 1989, and it was the first time I met some of my family members,” recalls an emotional Dagmar. “I saw aunts and cousins I had never met.”

Dagmar’s German roots are never far from her, not even in Bend.

Standing in their Scandinavian-style home, with simple clean lines and modern furniture, the Erikssons welcome guests into what looks like an IKEA showroom. But the difference is Nils, a master yacht builder by trade, has made many of the beautiful furniture pieces himself.

The coffee table, made from a single piece of Honduran mahogany, was handcrafted by Nils, along with another side table, the window moldings and doorway.

“He collects wood like some people collect tea cups,” says Dagmar jokingly.

Nils grew up in Stockholm and says his family had been building boats and yachts for generations, so when he moved to San Francisco as a 22-year-old man, finding a job was easy. However, later convincing a young Dagmar to marry him was harder.

Nils eventually won Dagmar’s heart and founded his own successful sail-mast-building company that built 13 of the 17 Star Class masts used at the 1968 Olympics sailing races. Dagmar has many of her race bibs hanging on the walls, along with probably hundreds of medals, but it’s Nils’ cupboard of yachting silver cups and bowls that Dagmar wants to show to visitors.

As proof of his boat-building days, the Erikssons give us a sneak peak at Nil’s handmade wooden fly-fishing boat. The craftsmanship is impeccable,

Nils and Dagmar Eriksson stand on the front porch of their Bend home. The beams from the property’s old mill house were integrated into the new home they built.

Nils Eriksson, who was a master yacht builder, looks over his wooden fishing boat he handcrafted in his garage. and Dagmar proudly says even the oars are handmade from a single piece of spruce. Though retired, Nils jokes, “If you have the money, I have the skills and tools to build you a boat.”

While Nils admits there’s always the call of the sea out there, he also felt the call of the mountains.

“We came out to Bend (on) Memorial Day weekend in May 1985 to go skiing, and we put an offer on a house during that visit, and in less than three months we were here,” said a self-assured Nils.

Dagmar, who loved San Francisco, owned prime real estate in

the Haight-Ashbury neighborhood, and had traveled the world as a flight attendant, loved Bend too, but had some reservations.

“I’m a city girl, so it was cultural shock,” confessed Dagmar with a smile.

“For me, life is always changing, and this is just one chapter, and who knows — the next chapter might have us living part time in America and part time back in Europe,” said Nils. “The older I get, the better my memories get of Sweden, how does that work?”

Dagmar admits that if she hadn’t been persuaded to move to Bend, she probably wouldn’t

have made the international podium last month at the Masters World Cup. “When Dagmar turned 50, she decided she wanted to do the Pole Pedal Paddle solo, so she had to learn to road bike, kayak and cross-country ski,” explained Nils. “That was 15 years ago.”

Looking fit and happy with her decision to train for her first Pole Pedal Paddle back then, Dagmar says, “you just learn it by doing it, but yes, it was scary learning to road bike and going down the mountain at 40 miles per hour.

But you do it.”

It may sound like a Nike advertisement, but it was Rossignol

representatives a decade ago who were so impressed by Dagmar that they signed on as one of her sponsors, and she hasn’t let them down, winning in her age group time and time again.

Dagmar will be at it again next month doing another solo Pole Pedal Paddle race, and while she may be getting older, she’s only getting faster.

“Where you really get inspired is at the World Masters. There was a 92-year-old man who was racing and winning, and an 81year-old woman skier from Moscow,” explained Nils.

When asked if she would continue for a few more decades, Dagmar laughs and shrugs, “Oh, I don’t know.” But she does admit she’s in better shape now than she’s ever been, and if the dominant theme in her life has been to take on challenges, don’t be surprised to see Dagmar’s name in the sporting news for decades to come.

We visited with Dagmar to discover a little about her life at home with her husband, their cooking habits and more.

How long have you lived in Central Oregon? We’ve lived in Central Oregon for 26 years. This is the third house we’ve lived in since coming here in 1985. Our other house was bigger, and it was on the north side of town and had acreage, but I like being closer to town. We bought this property, which had a 900square-foot home on it, about 2002, and had rented it out for one year, and then we built this house and moved in 2004.

What I love about my home is … It has great karma. I feel welcome when I walk in. It has great views of the Deschutes River and Mount Bachelor, which are my playgrounds.

When we built this house, we found some old beams under-

neath the old house, which was an old mill house, and we saved these beams for the front entry of our new home. The beams are from about 1919, and I just love these old beams. You can’t find beams like this today.

My favorite room is … It’s not really a room, but it’s our patio, which we use all the time when the weather is nice. It was built with this overhang, which protects it from the sun, so when it’s really hot outside, it still stays cool on the patio. We eat out here all the time in the summer and have parties out here. It has the views of the river and the mountains.

If I had a Monday off to do anything I wanted to do at home alone, I’d … Enjoy the time, and do whatever strikes me at the moment.

Are you handy around the house? I’m somewhat handy, but I don’t dare do anything because that’s Nils’ territory. He is the handy one; he can do anything.

My favorite piece of artwork in the house is … I have pieces of art from all over the world, collected during my years as a stewardess. Everything has a story of people and events in my life.

I have some special paintings from my family in Germany, which I brought over to America, and they are important to me because they remind me of my family and my grandmother, though it’s not a painting of my grandmother.

Do you like to cook? Sometimes. Nils is the chef. We like to eat more vegetables than meat, and we buy fresh ingredients. We try to avoid processed food, but I do like cream sauces, good red wine and dark, bitter chocolate.

Do you eat out often? We like our home-cooked events. Every meal is a special event for us, dinners by candlelight for the last 32 years!

What’s your idea of the perfect get-together at home? I love to have dinner parties where we all get together with good food and sit out on the patio and have good conversations.

What do you usually have for breakfast? Simple: Toast, boiled egg or homemade granola, and once in a while Swedish pancakes.

If you could have a second home anywhere in the world, where would it be and why? We used to have a second home, but now I would not want to be tied down to a second home. I’d rather travel to different places.

What do you do when you have time to relax and recreate in Central Oregon? Relaxing means going skiing or biking, hiking or kayaking.

Nils: I like to go fly-fishing and camping. When we go camping, I take the van with the boat, and Dagmar takes her bike and rides up there and meets me.

Favorite books/novels you’ve read, and why? Last book I read was “The Cellist of Sarajevo” by Steven Galloway. It touched me deeply, simply because people in this country have no concept what it’s like to live in a war zone.

I grew up in a war-torn country, I know the stories of postwar Germany.

Words I live by … However good or bad a situation is, it will change.

How important are the home inspector’s findings?

By Al Heavens The Philadelphia Inquirer

Q:

We are selling our home, and have a bid on it. But before the home inspector left, he shared some of the items of concern on his report.

He said we had a small amount of carbon monoxide leaking from our heater and that it needed to be cleaned. He showed me how he tested it and explained to me

get a room

that most inspectors do not even test half of the things that he was testing.

I showed him our carbon monoxide monitor, and it was not reading dangerous levels.

Regardless, we had a heating company come to our home and completely service the heater, and the service person said all was well.

The servicer said it was common for carbon monoxide to leak when the burner is heating up.

My gut feeling is that we are going to have to replace or give a credit at settlement for a new heater.

want to sell our home to someone under any unsafe conditions.

However, we have maintained and upgraded most areas of the home, and are now also being told how the electricity was done incorrectly or how the outlets aren’t grounded.

My question: When it comes to inspections, is there a standard or code of conditions that must be tested and documented, or is it subject to the inspector?

The American Society of Home Inspectors says that heating and electrical systems are among the items covered in a standard inspection.

In the inspector’s opinion, and I don’t know the areas in which he is well versed, the furnace required cleaning because he detected carbon monoxide when it was operating.

So, in response, you had the furnace serviced. You should obtain something from the servicer

A:

to show this has been done.

Carbon monoxide is a byproduct of incomplete combustion caused when there isn’t enough oxygen available to create carbon dioxide, and a dirty furnace is a common cause of this.

What the servicer should have done was make sure that the problem had been taken care of.

Does a small amount of carbon monoxide result every time a furnace comes on? I don’t know, but I placed a spare detector within 6 inches of our furnace on a cold evening in late March and it didn’t even burp when the furnace came on time and time again.

The instructions even caution not to put the detector as close as I did, but still it continued to flash “0.”

Electricity? If the buyers are concerned, they should have a licensed electrician inspect the

work. In fact, the same goes for the furnace. Tell them to hire an HVAC company to inspect it if they are concerned with the inspector’s report.

The home inspector association’s standards of conduct clearly state that if the buyer has concerns about the issues raised in the report, he or she should contact an independent expert to conduct further testing.

That’s the buyer. Not the seller.

If the buyer eventually wants you to lower your price, it is up to the buyer to present clear and indisputable reasons why.

Q:

We have 50-year-old fiberglass awnings that need to be updated. They are not falling apart, but their appearance needs to be updated.

A couple of years ago, we power washed them, which brought up the fiber, and, consequently,

the awnings showed dirt after a time.

My husband is suggesting painting them.

I don’t think you should have power washed the awnings, considering their age.

This round, you might try washing them with soapy water, rinsing with a garden hose, wiping away stubborn stains with distilled vinegar or foaming them away with baking soda (all Internet ideas), and then sealing them with a coat of car wax.

I wouldn’t paint them. Since they don’t owe you anything, and it has been 50 years, perhaps it is about time for new ones.

Next week: Planting time When, why and how to start working the soil.

Create a meadow right where you live

By Joel M. Lerner Special to The Washington Post

Meadows and prairies are both natural growth areas. The difference is that they are commonly called meadows on the East and West coasts, and prairies in the Midwest. These natural growth areas are used along highways to add color and lower the cost of road maintenance. They are also popular with homeowners.

Meadows or prairies can lower maintenance requirements, offer flowers and attract a profusion of birds and butterflies - even in small yards. A sunny patch, side yard or bright corner will do, but don’t expect to create a meadow in a day. It takes planning, a couple of years, and sometimes several attempts to nurture self-sustaining grasses and wildflowers.

Here are some guidelines offered

by Neil Diboll, owner of Prairie Nursery in Westfield, Wis. According to Diboll, timing and site preparation are critical to growing a successful mix of wildflowers. The site must be prepared properly from the start or the area will revert to grasses and weeds.

Since you are creating a space that takes years for nature to generate, the meadow will need a fresh start. The existing population of weeds and their seed must be cleared, ensuring that the area where the new meadow will be is free of competitive plants. This requires an entire growing season of preparation.

Begin by mowing the area as close as practical. Then begin weed eradication. Mulch and herbicides provide two ways to do this. The mulch can be plastic sheeting, thick wads of newspaper or other material that will keep light from reaching weeds.

Plastic sheeting also creates heat to smother germinating seeds. Diboll suggests treating all surface weeds with an herbicide that will kill the entire area of weeds, including their roots.

The Environmental Protection Agency has approved vinegar as a weed killer. When weeds are young, spray them with a vinegarbased weed killer.

Apply herbicides as needed in spring, summer, fall, winter and again next spring. The object is to rid the surface soil of all plant material. This will provide the conditions for the wildflower seed that you will spread to germinate and begin growing.

Another way to kill weeds is to use plastic sheeting. This spring, mulch the area that you would like to plant next spring, covering

Power washing a deck can be a good way to remove a year’s worth of grime and dirt, but be careful not to damage the wood.

Deck

Cleome, top, and goldenrod are two flower options for your backyard prairie. it with thick plastic sheeting secured with soil staples. The sheeting will help germinate the seeds in the top inch or two of soil. As they grow, the weeds will suffocate under the plastic. The sheeting that is laid now, in early April, must stay in place for the entire year so you can control weed seeds that germinate through all seasons.

The soil you find under the plastic should be bare. Do not till the soil you just cleared. That would bring fresh weed seed to the surface. Only scratch the bare soil deeply enough to hold the wildflower seed, about an eighth of an inch. Sprinkle your seed mix evenly over the area, perhaps with some sheep’s fescue. That’s all that should contact the previously covered soil.

Meadows are happiest in poor soil with high temperatures and little competition from other plants. Sprinkle the seed with wa-

ter in morning and late afternoon every day that it doesn’t rain for the first full growing season. You will probably want to seed for at least two seasons before a full mix of flowers begins to appear.

Meadows are generally a mix of grasses, annuals, biennials and perennials growing in open, sunny fields. There are alpine varieties found in mountainous regions with mostly small plants such as dwarf woody trees and shrubs mixed with wildflowers. There are grazing meadows that consist primarily of native grasses and are used for pasturing livestock.

There’s not much of a science to deciding what wildflowers you’ll have, since you will be limited to the species that thrive in your soil and region. If you’re using a prepared seed mix, check the list of plants to make sure there are varieties of natives that prefer the soil type and climate where they are to be planted.

Continued from E1 Ann Gawith, of Retrofitting and Remodeling Specialists in La Pine, said your location in Central Oregon should determine when to use a power washer. A good rule of thumb, she said, is to wait until the weather is warm enough that it doesn’t freeze overnight.

“In La Pine, we don’t power wash decks until it’s summer,” she said. “Generally speaking, you probably want to wait until it quits freezing, so the water leftover on the wood doesn’t freeze overnight, expand and cause damage.”

Temperature will also affect how long it takes the wood to dry out, Gawith added, and it is a good idea to start power washing early in the day to allow maximum drying time.

But before you go get a power washer, Gawith advises first looking at the deck to see if it is even necessary.

“Unless the surface is really nasty, I’m not a big fan of power washing,” Gawith said. “You can actually harm cedar with a power washer. It may be better to hose off the deck and sweep it well. While you’re doing that, you can replace or tighten the nails and screws.”

But if you do decide to go ahead and use a power washer, she said, look at the project and develop a cleaning plan.

Consider what direction the deck drains, and the location of fragile objects such as windows and light fixtures, which could be damaged by the powerful water stream.

Plan to work in the direction

Use a fan-shaped spray nozzle on decks to clean without damage. that the water drains, so you’re not fighting gravity.

Then proceed with caution.

“Most people are too aggressive with a power washer,” Gawith said. “I’ve seen people blow the siding off their house because they got too enthusiastic.”

Also, be careful not to use a nozzle that concentrates the water too much. That can lead to uneven cleaning and light spots, not to mention damage.

“Beginners might start out with too narrow a nozzle. Don’t hold the nozzle too close to the wood for too long or you might get a light spot,” Gawith said. “You can write your name in the deck finish with a power washer.”

Should you decide to go ahead and power wash your wood deck, here are a few tips: • Select a nozzle, or tip, suitable for the project. Nozzles determine the water pressure — the smallest opening will deliver the most power. Most manufacturers suggest a pounds per square inch of 2,400 to 2,600 for decks. Most models include a nozzle specifi-

cally for cleaning decks: Consult the owner’s manual.

• Put on protective eyewear and gloves before starting your power washer.

• Start the power washer and test the spray.

• “The best idea is to begin in some inconspicuous area,” Gawith advises. “If you start out where a chair or grill will sit, if you mess up, it won’t be noticed as much.”

• Begin by spraying away from the deck and then slowly point the wand toward it from 3 to 4 feet away. Make a few passes and then stop for a moment to see if the surface is clean. If not, move closer. Make slow, methodical passes to rinse the deck of all dirt and other debris using water only.

• Use caution, and never point the power washer nozzle toward another person or your own body.

Angels and blessings await your garden in summer heat

By Norman Winter

Blue Angel and White Blessing are tough-asnails, bloomall-summer type flowers native to Australia.

McClatchy-Tribune News Service

If I asked you to name a flower that bloomed profusely with knock-out color from June through September, you would be hard pressed to come up with a half dozen. But this is precisely how you would describe Blue Angel scaevola and the partnering white selection called White Blessing.

Despite the fact that the scaevola has been around now for more than a dozen years, it is still not planted enough by the everyday gardener. Known botanically as Scaevola aemula, this Australian workhorse is a must for those hot summer flowerbeds where everything else

McClatchy-Tribune News Service

starts to fade by mid-July.

Blue Angel and White Blessing are two relatively new scaevolas introduced by a company called Danzinger.

When I saw them in trials,

they were most impressive in the sheer quantity of flowers.

Of course, my visual analysis was a moment in time. I wondered how they performed for the rest of summer. The answer

was they were dynamic through September.

The scaevola gets its name from the Roman hero Mucius Scaevola, who demonstrated unparalleled bravery (and questionable judgment) by burning off his own left hand; the blossoms do slightly resemble a human hand. But the common name, fan flower, is more descriptive of the small blossoms.

Scaevola does best given plenty of sun and planted in fertile, organic-rich, well-drained beds.

Wet, soggy conditions are not satisfactory. Amend heavy soils or poorly drained locations by adding 3 to 4 inches of organic matter and tilling or shoveling to a depth of 6 to 8 inches. Plant

scaevola at the same depth it is growing in the container, spacing the plants 12 to 18 inches apart. Apply a layer of mulch after planting. Red mulch or fresh pine straw looks exceptional underneath the blue flowers.

They are very drought-tolerant once established in the landscape, but those in containers will need watering daily just like any other containers. Speaking of containers, the scaevola

makes a fine addition to large mixed tubs. Feed scaevolas every four to six weeks with a light application of a 12-6-6 or balanced blend fertilizer.

Delicious peanut brittle without all the snap

By Julie Rothman The Baltimore Sun

Pat Braun, of Mount Pleasant, Wis., said she was at an Amish settlement a few years back and had a soft peanut brittle. She said it tasted just like peanut brittle but was not as hard. She said she has tried several times to duplicate it with no success.

Ardice Holbrook, of Manchester, Md., sent in a recipe she came across on the Internet from CDKitchen ( w w w. c d k i t c h e n .com) that she thought Braun might want to try. I tested the recipe and found it was fairly easy to make, provided you have a working candy thermometer and don’t mind a bit of a mess in your kitchen.

The key is to work quickly once the brittle reaches the required 300 degrees so it does not turn into an overly sticky mess before you spread it.

As the recipe states, the secret to this candy is quick cooling, so once you spread it out, pop it into the refrigerator, or if it’s cold enough you could do what I did and put it outside to cool. This recipe makes a delicious brittle that is a softer alternative to the traditional

favorite. It also makes quite a lot, so you should have plenty to share.

RECIPE REQUEST: Arlene Bird, of Sonoma, Calif., says she is fond of the cheese biscuits that are served at the restaurant chain Red Lobster. She says the biscuit is very light and so rich it does not need butter. She would love to have their recipe or something similar.

If you are looking for a recipe or can answer a request, write to Julie Rothman, Recipe Finder, The Baltimore Sun, 501 N. Calvert St., Baltimore, MD 21278 or e-mail recipefinder@ baltsun.com. If you send in more than one recipe, please put each on a separate piece of paper and include your name, address and daytime phone number. Important: Name and hometown must accompany recipes in order to be published.

Please list the ingredients in order of use, and note the number of servings each recipe makes. Please type or print contributions. Letter and recipes may be edited for clarity.

RECIPE FINDER

Grab your stickers and stencils, time to dye eggs MARTHA STEWART Easter eggs have always been a vibrant bunch, thanks to good old food coloring and a little imagination. This year’s batch takes palette and pattern a step further.

Inspired by mid-20th-century graphic design, these projects bring the era’s bright hues, geometric forms and sense of whimsy to the eggshell. The technique used gives impressive results but is fun and easy enough to do with kids, who are sure to love the eye-popping patterns.

The trick? Stickers and stencils that you make from adhesive vinyl and electrical tape. After you apply stick-on shapes to the egg, dip it into dye or dab color right onto the shell. Then repeat, layering on more colors and designs. You can’t make a mistake — all your creations will be charming and surprising. Fresh eggs, indeed.

Johnny Miller / New York Times News Service

It only takes a few simple tools to create detailed Easter egg designs: Try making patterns with punched shapes (top row), strips of electrical tape (middle) and stencils (bottom).

Egg dyeing how-to SOFT PEANUT BRITTLE Makes about 3 pounds.

2 C creamy peanut butter 1½ C sugar 1½ C light corn syrup ¼ C water plus 2 tsp (divided use)

2 TBS butter 2 C peanuts, raw or roasted, salted or unsalted 1 tsp baking soda 1 tsp vanilla extract

In a double boiler over hot water, place peanut butter to heat while preparing syrup. In a large saucepan combine, sugar, corn syrup and ¼ cup water. Cook over high heat until syrup reaches 275 degrees on the candy thermometer. Lower heat to medium, add butter, stirring until melted. Add peanuts, cook, stirring for about 5 minutes until candy starts turning brown and reaches 300 degrees on the thermometer.

Remove from heat, stir in baking soda that has been dissolved in 2 teaspoons of water. Add vanilla. Working quickly, fold in warm peanut butter, stirring gently. At once, pour candy mixture onto well-greased marble slab or cookie sheet. Quickly spread as thin as possible. The secret to this candy is quick cooling.

When cold, break into serving portions.

This is a great project to do with kids. Experiment, improvise and have a good time. You need just a few materials. The first is adhesive vinyl. These designs call for three types: plain sheets, shaped with craft punches to make stickers and stencils; preformed letters; and electrical tape, cut using a craft knife and a cutting mat.

The vinyl works beautifully: It adheres well and doesn’t let dye seep through, so you can make crisp, clear designs.

The second component is dye. Food coloring — the classic four-pack and a neon variation — works well. When stenciling eggs, you’ll use undiluted food coloring; mix hues together for custom blends. For dip-dyeing eggs, make a dye bath: Add one teaspoon of white vinegar and five to 20 drops of food coloring

to one cup of hot water; stir it regularly to keep the color even.

Applying shapes When you stick vinyl cutouts, strips or letters onto an egg and dip it into dye, the areas underneath remain uncolored. Remove the stickers to reveal the shapes.

• Position a vinyl cutout on an egg.

• With your fingernail, rub gently around the entire outline of cutout, sealing it fully. This will help ensure crisp edges on the finished design.

• Use each cutout only one time.

Making stencils When you use a craft punch on vinyl, the shape’s border be-

comes a stencil. Position it on the egg, and dab color inside.

• Make a vinyl stencil using a craft punch.

• Apply it to the egg, rubbing the inside edge for a good seal.

• Using a cotton swab, dab undiluted food coloring inside the stencil; let dry before removing the stencil.

Three designs, step by step Use this technique with punched shapes and vinyl letters: • Apply vinyl leaf cutouts (made with a craft punch) to an egg.

• Submerge egg in a red dye bath until desired shade is reached. Dry egg with a paper towel.

• Peel off leaf cutouts. Apply

flower cutouts.

• Submerge egg in a green dye bath until the desired shade is reached. Dry egg again.

• Peel off flower cutouts to reveal the finished egg.

To make spirals and square cutouts, use electrical tape, trimmed on a cutting mat if necessary: • Wrap a strip of 1⁄4-inch-wide electrical tape around an egg.

• Submerge egg in a yellow dye bath until desired shade is reached. Dry with a paper towel.

• Peel off tape. Apply a second, same-size piece of tape, wrapping it in the opposite direction.

• Submerge egg in a blue dye bath until desired shade is reached. Dry egg again.

• Peel off tape to reveal the finished egg.

Animals and dots are fashioned from stencils made with vinyl sheets and circle punches: • Apply vinyl stencils to an egg dyed a pale shade (to create a bunny’s body, use a 1-inch circle punch; for the ears, use a 3⁄4-inch punch and a strip of vinyl).

• Dab undiluted dye inside the stencils.

• Peel off stencils. Apply two more stencils (for the face, use 3⁄4inch punch; for the tail, use a 1⁄2 inch punch). Dab dye.

• Peel off stencils to reveal the bunny shape.

• Make eye stencils using a 1 ⁄8-inch hole punch. Dab dye. Cut triangle stencil for nose using a craft knife. Dab dye.

• Draw a curved mouth using a fine-tipped permanent-ink marker.

Maggie McLaughlin, of Tumalo, shows off her Norwegian Fjord named Sven, who she will ride at the Oregon Gold Open Horse Show in Redmond. Though the show is for all horse types, there will be separate categories for Fjords and Haflingers, breeds known for being small and powerful.

Beauty and brawn Haflingers, Norwegian Fjords to join Central Oregon breeds at horse show

For The Bulletin

unique cast of hoofers and their owners will show off their stuff at the Oregon Gold Open Horse Show in Redmond this weekend.

While most of the two-day competitions at the Deschutes County Fair & Expo Center will be open to horse breeds common to this area — quarter, painter and mustang — some will showcase two types seen more often in the mountains of Norway and Austria than among the sagebrush and junipers of the High Desert.

Haflingers and Norwegian Fjords, breeds known for being strong enough to haul timber but agile enough to wow spectators in dressage and jumping classes, will be featured in their own divisions, said organizer Catherine Stout.

“They’re really cool breeds, strong and hardy but also very gentle,” said Stout, who owns Royal Haflinger Ranch in Tumalo. “Also, they tend to stand out since there just aren’t that many of them.”

That’s because for decades, Austrian and Norwegian governments have strictly controlled the numbers that are exported, according to literature on the two breeds.

Which makes it all the more impressive that some of the Haflingers and Fjords living on American soil will soon be hauled by their owners to Central Oregon from places such as Santa Rosa, Calif., and Washington’s San Juan Islands to compete in the show, said Stout.

Pet insurance surges as veterinarian costs rise

By Lisa Brown St. Louis Post-Dispatch

ST. LOUIS — Elizabeth Brown spared no expense in seeking treatment for Maggie, her yellow Labrador retriever who was diagnosed with cancer in 2003.

Radiation treatments and surgeries added up to more than $4,200 before Maggie died in 2008.

The experience prompted Brown, who’s retired and lives in south St. Louis County, Mo., to buy a pet health insurance policy

for $90 a month when she later brought home a puppy named Caramel.

Faced with the increasing price of medical care, more pet owners are now pulling out insurance cards when visiting the veterinary’s office.

Pet health insurance has been available in the United States for nearly 30 years, but expanded veterinary treatments and changing attitudes toward the family pet has bolstered the number of policies over the past decade, even during the economic downturn.

“The humanization of pets is driving it, as people are more likely to treat pets as four-legged members of their family,” said Grant Biniasz, a spokesperson for VPI Pet Insurance based in Brea, Calif., the largest pet insurance provider in the nation.

The growth has drawn several new insurance providers into the market in recent years, including St. Louis-based Nestle Purina PetCare. The company started its PurinaCare insurance subsid-

iary in 2008 and has since expanded coverage to all 50 states.

Pet insurance has grown at a glacial pace in the U.S., but it has gained speed in the past decade. Three percent of the nation’s 78 million dogs and 1 percent of its 93 million cats are now covered, according to a recent American Pet Products Association estimate. That’s up from 1 percent of dogs and virtually no cats covered in 1998.

Volunteers strive to heal veterans scarred by war Dear Abby: Large numbers of veterans are returning home with a wide range of psychological difficulties, many struggling with severe physical injuries or traumatic brain injuries. One in 10 soldiers reports mental health problems, while 30 percent of U.S. troops develop serious mental health problems within three to four months of coming home.

Post-traumatic stress is a natural human reaction to horrific experiences. The symptoms of PTSD are greatly reduced if appropriate treatment is provided quickly to those in need. Individuals who suffer from traumatic brain injuries also experience consequences such as anxiety, depression, substance abuse and marital difficulties. And children whose parents suffer from PTSD are more likely to develop symptoms of anxiety and depression.

Give an Hour is a nonprofit organization that has established a national network of more than 5,300 licensed mental health professionals who provide free mental health services to U.S. troops, their families and communities affected by the current military conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq. Each one gives an hour each week to provide free mental health services to military personnel and their families. In addition, these volunteers work to educate the public and the military community to reduce the stigma so often associated with mental health issues.

Give an Hour offers immediate access to services for people who might fail to seek help through the military or Veterans Administration. Parents, siblings, unmarried partners and other loved ones are typically not covered by military insurance.

My second concern is the woman and her husband never even invited Dad over for a cup of coffee after Mom died, but now that she’s a widow, she all of a sudden wants to be “neighborly.” I’d like to ask her why. Would I be out of line?

New ‘Doctor Who’ touches down in U.S.

By Tish Wells McClatchy-Tribune News Service

If you’re waiting with bated breath for the royal wedding, you may want to tune into another eagerly awaited British event.

The new season of “Doctor Who” starts Saturday.

The classic British sci-fi television show, found on the cable channel BBC America and some PBS stations, opens with a two-part season premiere, “The Impossible Astronaut,” set in a very unusual spot: America.

In the first episode, The Doctor (Matt Smith) lands amid the rugged terrain of Utah’s Monument Valley, complete with red sandstone mesas and buttes. Fitting in with his new surroundings, he dons a cowboy hat — “Stetsons are cool,” purrs The Doctor — and goes chasing monsters.

BBC America is broadcasting the premiere on the same date in the U.K. and the U.S. as it did with the “Doctor Who Christmas Special” last December.

Trailers for the new season include scenes with NASA spacesuits and the Oval Office with a man who bears an unmistakable resemblance to President Richard Nixon. The Doctor and his companions also are reunited with the mysterious River Song (Alex Kingston).

“Doctor Who” was the third top-selling TV series on the U.S. iTunes store, according to BBC America. It has become a vehicle for prominent actors to guest star in — Timothy Dalton (a former James Bond), Michael Sheen (“Frost/Nixon,” “The Queen”), Bill Nighy (“Love Actually,” “Pirates of the Caribbean”), and Michael Gambon (the “Harry Potter” movies). The executive producer, Steven Moffat, also produced “SherSelf Referrals Welcome

For those needing an introduction, The Doctor is a space-traveling alien from Gallifrey with a fondness for Planet Earth, which he saves from destruction on a regular basis. His current companions are Amy Pond (Karen Gillan) and her husband, Rory Williams (Arthur Darvill). His transport, the “Tardis,” is a time machine masquerading as a blue 1960s-style British police box.

The original series ran from 1963 to 1989. A one-shot television movie was released in 1996 before “Doctor Who” was re-

vived on television in 2005. The character regularly regenerates, allowing new actors to take over the main role. Smith, the 11th Doctor, was profiled in the 2010 U.K.’s GQ magazine Men of the Year awards wearing his trademark bow tie.

Gillan will be returning to New York to make a movie about model Jean Shrimpton, who appeared on the covers of Vogue

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Tuesday, April 19, 2011: This year, you see many options through your associates and a key partner. You know when enough is enough and when a change is necessary. Timing is an innate gift, as well as the ability to be clear and insightful. Others often respond to your ideas. If you are single, you express a willingness to relate on a one-on-one level. A very interesting suitor appears on the horizon. This relationship is your call. If you are attached, learn to detach. Understanding rather than triggering could be instrumental.

Your sweetie needs to be dominant.

SCORPIO 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 Let an associate or loved one state his or her case. This person has a strong verbal style.

You could make mincemeat of his or her idea, if you so choose. Talk to others; find a different path. Tonight: Enjoying a special friendship.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHH Others strut right in with their ideas, assuming you will go along with them. You might normally, but you have other grievances going on. You might use this occasion to let others know how you feel about several issues. Tonight: Have an important discussion.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHH You still might be in work mode. Your sense of humor

emerges, allowing greater give-andtake, especially in a meeting and/or around friends. Your drive makes a goal happen. Tonight: The later it gets, the more you enjoy yourself.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHHH Your imagination cannot be stomped out, yet you might choose to be a little more discreet in revealing your ideas. A heated discussion with a higher-up encourages this discretion. Tonight: Plug some of this creativity into your love life.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH You still could be acting like a tortoise. By midafternoon, you start perking up, acting and thinking more like yourself. Put in extra hours if need be, once you are sure you are back on your feet. Tonight: Still play it low-key (if you can!).

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHHH Keep talking until you come to an agreement. As you think through an idea, you might want to play devil’s advocate — even for yourself! Though no one wants criticism, it could tighten up a project. Tonight: Hang out.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHH Defer to others, especially concerning a financial matter.

This action allows key associates to reveal their thoughts, and perhaps take more responsibility.

You might want to rethink your stance before you express your thoughts. Tonight: Your treat.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Work with an associate who can be sarcastic and insightful. This person can be difficult, but not if he or she knows

you value his or her thoughts.

Know when to say “enough.”

Tonight: Go full steam ahead.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHH Know that you are on the verge of turning an important corner.

With this knowledge, you might want to finish up some research or a project. Imagine being on center stage tomorrow. Your planning now will determine your effectiveness later. Tonight: Nap if you want.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH In a meeting, say what you need to say in order to help others understand your goal, drive and decision. A little questioning needs to be greeted with openness and is part of gaining others’ trust. Nearly anything can happen. Tonight: A little socializing infuses the spirit.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHH A must appearance and a willingness to take the lead are important. Discussions add a lot of dimension to a project. You have a sense that the lead on a project is being taken by the group, not just by you. Tonight: Could go till the wee hours.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHHH You have the ability to sleuth out a solution. Drawing in many different ideas and finding experts are instrumental in today’s success. Your finances could continue to be an issue if you are not careful. Tonight: Check out a workshop.

Q:

Horse show Continued from F1 A recent visit to Stout’s Haflinger ranch and another to the Tumalo home of Maggie McLaughlin, who owns Norwegian Fjords, revealed the two breeds’ similarities.

With their gold coats, muscular bodies and cream-colored manes and tales, the horses look like a blend between Roy Rogers’ Trigger and a squat body builder. Creatures like these aren’t toasted with mint juleps at racetracks in Kentucky. “They’re in a class of their own,” said Stout, happier packing heavy loads than galloping fancy on tracks, she said.

For example, take the Stout’s 18-year-old Haflinger named Style, who packed half of a dead elk that Stout’s husband, Doug, had shot during an eight day hunting trip.

“He carried about 350 pounds of elk with his head high and never ran out of steam,” said Doug Stout.

And talk about a family affair: The couple’s 17-year-old daughter, Stephanie, grew up around Haflingers and is helping her mom organize the horse show. “It will be great seeing them there with all the other kinds of horses. People will see that they’re smaller but have lots of strength,” she said.

Less than a mile from the Stout’s ranch is a Norwegian Fjord named Sven who will compete in the Oregon Gold show with his owner Maggie McLaughlin. “He’s small and strong with a big heart,” she said while displaying Sven in the walkway of her barn.

Fjords, which have “great strength relative to their size,” are a national symbol of Norway, according to the website of the Norwegian Fjord Horse Registry, headquartered in Berthoud, Colo.

McLaughlin, a retired teacher of Scottish descent, said she appreciates why Norwegians hold Fjords in such high regard. “The ones I’ve had have been good, gentle companions with a willingness to work hard.”

Sven’s hard work and talent will be tested in the dressage and trail course events at the Oregon Gold Open Horse Show, McLaughlin said. The competition is billed as an English and Western riding event featuring 81 classes that will include a range from carriage driving to obstacle riding. Plus, it’s for riders of all abilities and ages, said Catherine Stout. “We’ll give out prizes and give out smiles. It will be a great show for riders to prepare for more serious summer riding and for those riders who are already serious.”

J.B. Forbes / St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Veterinarian Wayne Hause listens to Anthony Gilson, who describes the problems he has been having with his Pomeranian, Dobby, at Associated Veterinary Specialists in Bridgeton, Mo., on April 11.

Insurance Continued from F1 How much could this industry grow? Insurance has gained wider acceptance in some European countries, such as the United Kingdom, where 20 percent of pets have policies, and Sweden, where it’s estimated at least 30 percent of pets are covered, according to New York-based research firm Packaged Facts.

PurinaCare believes that eventually 10 percent of U.S. pets will be covered by insurance.

Changes in people’s social support systems — higher divorce rates, fewer children, and people living farther away from their families — has helped drive this trend, said James Serpell, a veterinary ethics professor at the University of Pennsylvania’s School of Veterinary Medicine.

“We’re using animals to replace what we’re losing in human social relationships,” he said.

With that evolution, pet owners now expect medical care for their pets to match medical care for themselves.

“People ask now, ‘Why can’t my dog get dialysis?’ People increasingly think health care they get from their vets should be like what they get for their children,” Serpell said.

Yet, veterinary care isn’t cheap. It’s second only to food in the amount people spend on pets.

Of the $50 billion expected to be spent this year on pets, $14.11 billion will be for vet bills, up from $13 billion last year.

The growing market VPI Pet Insurance issued the first pet insurance policy in the U.S. in 1982. VPI has long dominated the industry, but it lost market share in recent years as more providers have emerged.

VPI had 52 percent market share in 2009, according to Packaged Facts, down from 68 percent in 2005.

“They sort of had the party to themselves until 2004-05, when new companies started entering the market with new plans and pitches,” said David Lummis, senior pet market researcher for Packaged Facts.

The number of pet insurance providers in the U.S. doubled over the last decade from six to a dozen in 2010.

Among the newcomers is Nestle Purina. After studying the pet insurance market for three years, the company felt it could

be competitive by drawing on its experience and research in pet health.

According to company executives, a void existed in the market for people to access information about what pet insurance policies covered. Nestle Purina posts copies of its policies online for customers to view. The potential exists for Nestle Purina, which is owned by Swiss-based Nestle, to grow its insurance business globally. “Other Purina subsidiaries around the world have expressed interest in pet insurance, but our current focus is limited to the North American market,” said Dr. David Goodnight, a veterinarian and president of PurinaCare, which is based in San Antonio.

Its rivals include pet retailer PetCo and the financial services division of grocery chain Kroger. There’s speculation that Wal-Mart will introduce a pet insurance product at its Canadian stores this year.

“I think that the tipping point will be when big retailers get into it, and we’re right on the verge with retailers exploring it,” said Kristen Lynch, executive director of the nonprofit North American Pet Health Insurance Association, whose members include pet insurance providers.

When it pays Monthly pet insurance premiums can start around $10 but can exceed $100 for some older dogs.

Pre-existing conditions are typically excluded, and pet owners are reimbursed after submitting claims.

Providers’ policies vary. Some of the higher-end preventive plans cover heartworm and flea medications in addition to vaccines and annual exams. Some of the lower-cost plans just provide coverage for unexpected accidents and illnesses.

A $1,180 vet bill for a dog’s broken leg under VPI’s Super Plan, for example, will reimburse the pet owner $1,002. With a lower monthly payment, VPI will reimburse $626 of the vet’s bill.

Nestle Purina tweaked its offerings last year to include a plan that allows pet owners to pay lower premiums in exchange for bearing a higher percentage of the bill, between 30 percent and 40 percent of eligible expenses.

Despite the cost, more pet owners are taking out insurance policies to avoid price shock at the vet’s office.

“Nobody’s expecting a big

pet bill, and then all of a sudden, they have a big problem like a car accident (involving the pet) or illness,” said Dr. Wayne Hause, a veterinarian in Bridgeton, Mo., who specializes in clinical oncology and neurology.

Visits to his office start at $120 but can quickly add up to several thousand dollars when multiple procedures are performed. More people are coming to his practice with pet insurance policies, although pets covered with insurance still total less than 10 percent of his clients, he said.

“The people that walk in with pet insurance are much happier, because they can take the financial aspect out of decisions relating to their pets,” Hause said.

Dr. Noelle Miles, a veterinarian in Millstadt and president of the Greater St. Louis Veterinary Medical Association, said treatment for some chronic diseases such as cancer can cost pet owners more than $300 a month.

Many pet owners are willing to pay the cost, with or without insurance.

Consumer Reports’ Money Adviser newsletter published an article last fall with an analysis of four pet health insurers — VPI, ASPCA Pet Health Insurance, 24PetWatch QuickCare and Trupanion — and concluded that for generally healthy animals, pet insurance isn’t worth the cost. For most owners, establishing an emergency fund for unexpected pet bills is a better choice.

Still, for young pets that develop a chronic condition or illness after the policy is in place, having the policies paid off, according to the report.

“The main thing is, whenever you’re shopping for those plans, it’s important to look very carefully at the fine print and look at all of the exceptions,” said Tobie Stanger, a Consumer Reports senior editor and author of the report.

For Brown, who paid several thousand dollars out-ofpocket for vet bills, the peace of mind in knowing she won’t face unexpected veterinary expenses is worth the price of a monthly premium.

“I like that it pays for shots, and when Caramel did need to seek treatment for a dog bite, I was reimbursed promptly,” she said.

My Labrador is now 8 months old and full of energy. She joyfully pulls me down the street when we go for a walk, and the other day she almost pulled my shoulder out. I took her to a training class, and the instructor told me that she would respond well to a head halter, and it would stop her from pulling. So I got one and put it on her.

She shook it off in 30 seconds and went flying down the block.

These things must work or the trainer would not have recommended it, but how can I get it to work on my dog?

Head halters do work, but they are not easy for some dogs to get used to. A halter on a dog’s head with the leash attached to the ring under the dog’s jaw works the same way a halter works on a horse. When the animal forges ahead of you, the halter pulls it around so the animal is now facing toward you.

The key is to get the correct size of a halter and get the dog used to it gradually. The best halters usually list the appropriate size for each type of dog on the package, and they have an extra clip that attaches to the dog’s collar so that if the dog pulls the halter off, your lead is still attached to the dog.

Most dogs hate wearing anything on their face, so you have to do this in stages. First, put the halter on the dog when you are both cuddling together — in my house this is usually when we are on the couch. Just put the halter on and leave it for a minute, then take it off and praise the dog.

The key is for you to be the one to take it off. The dog must never get the idea in its head that it can take the halter off on its own.

When the dog is calmly sitting next to you wearing the halter, put your finger in the ring and lead the dog about the house in a calm manner. After the dog is content to do this, put the leash on and lead it about the house the same way. Once this is all done, she will calmly walk right next to you with no drama or pulling.

The only problem with head halters is that they vaguely resemble a muzzle. Some people

A:

Which dog food is best?

Q:

What is the story with dog foods these days? I just got a new bichon puppy, and the breeder told me one thing, my vet told me another, my friends told me another and the guy in the pet store tells me something else.

How do I decide which brand is the best?

The fact that all these people told you something different, and their dogs are all fine means there are lots of brands of foods and ways to feed your dog.

I have been going to the Westminster dog show now for 25 years, and every year I ask the owners of the prizewinning dogs what they feed them. Every year, it is something different. So my advice is to read the ingredients and use common sense.

If the ingredients are familiar to you and you would eat them yourself, then they are OK to feed your dog. I would never eat things like rendered animal fat or corn gluten meal. The lessprocessed the food, the better.

There is no point in feeding your dog a food that has artificially colored bits or kibble in different shapes.

The only time these rules go out the window is if your dog is on a prescription diet recommended by your vet. These diets have some odd ingredients, but they are in the food for specific medical reasons.

A:

Feed the fish

Q:

My fish pond made it through the winter, as did all of my goldfish. When should I start to feed them? They come up to the surface when I walk to the pond now and expect me to feed them like they did all summer.

If the goldfish are active and seeking out food, and your pump and filter are running, then it is just fine to feed them.

Since their digestive tracts have been dormant for so long, be certain to give them food specially formulated for spring and fall feedings. Most pet stores will stock this formula.

LEGAL NOTICE Application for Allocation of Conserved Water The Department has received an application for an Allocation of Conserved Water pursuant to ORS 537.455 to 537.500 and OAR Chapter 690, Division 18. The Department's review will consider whether the diversion for the uses allowed under the original water right will be reduced by the conservation project; whether existing water rights will be protected from injury and whether the project is in compliance with local comprehensive land use plans.

Notice of Application for Allocation of Conserved Water CW-69 On March 28, 2011, the Deschutes River Conservancy (DRC), in conjunction with Three Sisters Irrigation District, and the following landowners, Ralph Affatati, Ed and Barbara Carollo, Brian Conner, Susan Conner, Doug Duey, Kristine Falco, John Gloeckner, Jerry and Sharon Hakes, Donna Harris, David Hurtley, Carl and Shelly Johnson, Mark and Sheila Kelley, Sandy Kennedy, Phillip Krohn, Gary and Angie Larson, Kara Lin Mickaelson, David and Christine Nelson, Peter Small, Ken and Rae Swearingen, Barbara Temple and Melissa Ward filed an Application for Allocation of Conserved Water under ORS 537.470.

The Department designated the application as CW-69.

The Applicants propose to conserve water by replacing approximately 6,450 feet of the TSID Hurtley Lateral water conveyance system with, high density polyethelyne (HPDE) pipe. Replacement of the existing, inefficient, damaged and leaky portions of the delivery system will completely eliminate water losses through this irrigation delivery system.

The Hurtley Lateral serves approximately 102 acres, of which, 85.6 acres will be involved in this project.

The project is expected to yield approximately 0.419 cfs of conserved water from Whychus Creek under Water Right Certificate 74135 with a priority date of 1895. It is proposed that 100% of the conserved water will be protected instream from the point of diversion (at approximately River Mile 23.5) to the confluence with the Deschutes River and then to River Mile 120 on the Deschutes River (near Lake Billy Chinook).

Any interested person may comment in writing, on CW-69. Comments must be received by May 23, 2011 or within 20 days of the last date of publication in the newspaper, whichever is later. Comments should be sent to Kody Thurgood, Water Resources Department, 725 Summer Street NE, Suite A, Salem, OR 97301-1266.

Comments may be faxed to 503-986-0903. The Department will review all comments received when determining whether to approve the proposed allocation of conserved water.

A copy of the application and other information on the allocation and use of conserved water may be obtained from the Department by contacting Kody Thurgood at 503-986-0892 or thurgokj@wrd.state.or.us.
