New map tells a tale of 2 Bends Credit error?

It pays to be on a VIP list

La Pine’s big

‘welcome home’

By Tara Siegel Bernard New York Times News Service

The credit rating bureaus, whose reports influence everything from credit cards to mortgages to job offers, have a two-tiered system for resolving errors: one for the rich, the wellconnected, the well-known and the powerful — and the other for everyone else.

The three major agencies, Equifax, Experian and TransUnion, keep a VIP list of sorts, according to consumer lawyers and legal documents, consisting of celebrities, politicians, judges and other influential people. Those on the list — and they may not even realize they are on it — get special help from workers in the United States in fixing mistakes on their credit reports. Any errors are usually corrected immediately, one lawyer said.

For everyone else, disputes are herded into a largely automated system. These consumers who have trouble fixing errors through the dispute process can quickly find themselves trapped in a Kafkaesque no man’s land, where the only escape is through the courts.

BERLIN — Germans have for decades confronted the Nazi era head-on, paying billions in compensation, meticulously teaching Third Reich history in school, and building memorials to victims. The conviction Thursday of retired Ohio autoworker John Demjanjuk, who was a guard at a Nazi death camp, drives home how the Holocaust is still very much part of the German psyche.

But most Germans have skirted their own possible family involvement in Nazi atrocities. Now, more than 65 years after the end of Hitler’s regime, more and more are trying to pierce the family secrets.

While the cold, wet spring might seem annoying to hikers itching to get out on mountain trails, it’s a boon for water managers who have measured reservoir levels not seen in the last decade for this time of year.

“We’ve had a very good water year so far,” said Jeremy Giffin, Deschutes Basin watermaster. “The upper basin reservoirs are looking great; the natural flows are up. … This cold spring has kind of prolonged the runoff longer than we’re used to.”

As the warm weather melts the high elevation snow, water managers could start to refill the reservoirs again this spring instead of drawing them down like usual.

The large Crescent Lake Reservoir, for example, could reach its capacity of 86,000 acre feet as the snowpack continues to melt and run off into local waterways.

“We will probably fill it this year, which will be the first time in a decade,” Giffin said.

“And we’ve only just begun melting off those areas above 5,000 feet, so we’ve got a lot of runoff yet to occur.”

On Saturday, dozens of motorcycles escorted Kyle Thompson, left, and his family to La Pine’s American Legion Post 45, where the Marine corporal and 2005 La Pine High School graduate was treated to a large homecoming celebration.

By Leon Pantenburg For The Bulletin

LA PINE — arine Cpl. Kyle Thompson returned home Saturday to La Pine, and to a hero’s welcome.

A reception and “welcome home” party was held in his honor at American Legion Post 45. This was after Thompson and several relatives were escorted to the post by members of the Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office and an honor guard of about 50 motorcyclists from the La Pine American Legion Riders and Patriot Guard motorcycle clubs.

For Thompson, the reception was more than he expected.

M

“It’s almost a little too much. But I appreciate everybody’s efforts,” he said. “I’d really been looking forward to coming home and getting to flyfish.”

Thompson graduated from La Pine High School in 2005, worked for a while, then enlisted in the Marines.

The family has a tradition of military service, starting with his greatgrandfather, Fred Teela, a World War I Marine who was wounded at Belleau Woods. His grandfather, Tom Teela, of Bend, was a World War II Marine wounded at Peleliu. Thompson’s father, Michael Thompson, of Vancouver, Wash., broke with tradition and served in the Army. Both Thompson and his grandfather served in the 3rd Battalion, 6th Marines, 2nd Division.

Thompson was trained in reconnaissance, and he worked with a team of about 15 to 22 Marines and soldiers, frequently on long-range operations where they would be in enemy-held territory for up to 30 days at a stretch. Thompson was sent to Iraq in 2008 and completed his tour in 2009.

His enlistment was almost over, but Thompson extended for four months so he could go to Afghanistan with his team.

“I joined the Corps to get in on the fight, and I was a team leader,” he said. “The guys in my team were well-trained, but they didn’t have any combat experience, and it would have been bad for me to jump out just then.”

ST. LOUIS — The numbers have become a familiar refrain: 9 billion people by 2050; 10 billion by 2100. For aid organizations and policymakers, the figures raise an alarming question: How to feed them all? For agricultural corporations like Monsanto, they offer a huge market opportunity.

Missouri-based Monsanto, the world’s largest agricultural biotech company, has for years made clear that it could benefit from a rising global population and rising food demand, particularly in developing countries. And recent spikes in food prices worldwide, combined with a protracted economic downturn, have sparked debate over whether biotechnology represents the answer to feeding the world.

Critics counter it doesn’t.

Regardless of the controversies surrounding biotechnology, questions over global food security, which last surfaced with the food price spikes of 2008, have become more urgent once again.

As rift with Pakistan deepens, Chicago trial could hold clues New York Times News Service WASHINGTON — The United States and Pakistan are veering toward a deeper clash, with Pakistan’s Parliament demanding a permanent halt to all drone strikes just as the most senior U.S. official since the killing of Osama bin Laden is to arrive with a stern message that the country has only months to show it is truly committed to rooting out al-Qaida and associated groups.

The U.S. has increased drone strikes in Pakistan’s tribal areas in the past 10 days in an effort to exploit the uncertainty and disarray among militant ranks caused by bin Laden’s death on May 2.

But as the United States presses Pakistan for answers about whether the ISI, Pakistan’s powerful intelligence service, played a role in harboring bin Laden, a Pakistani-American man named David Coleman is set to recount his story of the Mumbai attack in a federal courthouse in Chicago.

What he discloses could deepen suspicions that Pakistani spies are connected to terrorists and could potentially worsen relations between Washington and Islamabad.

Two years before terrorists struck the Indian port city, Headley began laying the groundwork for the attack, financed, he claims, by $25,000 from an ISI officer.

Headley told Indian investigators that the officer, known only as Maj. Iqbal, “listened to my entire plan to attack India.” Another officer with the intelligence service, the Inter-Services Intelligence Directorate, “assured me of the financial help,” Headley said.

India, the site of the November 2008 attacks, will be closely monitoring the trial for evidence of the ISI’s duplicity. Pakistan will also be listening to — and is likely to deny — Headley’s every word.

So far, Islamabad has dismissed Headley’s accusations against the ISI as little more than a desperate performance by a man hoping to avoid the death penalty.

A U.S. official who spoke on the condition of anonymity said that the United States government’s view of Headley — like so much else surrounding the ISI — was murky. No agreement exists in Washington on whether the ISI guided Headley and the attacks on Mumbai.

“It’s not very clear,” the official said. “A lot of this is going to come out of the trial. His claim could just be his claim.”

Still, the fact that the government is presenting Headley as a prosecution witness suggests that at least some in the government believe he is telling the truth. And the authorities said they expected the government to present e-mails and tapes of telephone conversations to support his story.

Any new evidence of ISI malfeasance that emerge from the trial will reverberate in Washington too, with the relationship between the United States and Pakistan at its most tenuous state in years.

A growing chorus on Capitol Hill argues that the discovery of bin Laden’s hideout and the evidence in Headley’s case leave no doubt that the ISI and its Pakistani military overseers have played a cynical double game with the United States. Pakistan has received $20 billion in military and development assistance since 2001, and its military, they say, has sheltered bin Laden, supported Afghan Taliban who kill American troops and guided the militants who attacked Mumbai.

Headley himself is not on trial.

But he will be the main witness against Tahawwur Hussain Rana, a Chicago businessman who is accused of providing financial and logistical support for the 2008 siege in Mumbai. The attack, a barrage of gunfire and grenades, killed at least 163 people, including six Americans. Rana’s defense is that he agreed to support Headley’s activities in India because he was led to believe he was working for the ISI, and therefore the Pakistani government.

Bruce Riedel, a terrorism expert at the Brookings Institution, a former CIA officer and a critic of the ISI, predicted that the upcoming trial would be “the next nail in the coffin of U.S.-Pakistan relations as the ISI’s role in the murder of six Americans is revealed in graphic detail.”

With precisely that possibility

Three of the men are American citizens in Florida who are originally from Pakistan, authorities said.

The three others are living in Pakistan.

The Associated Press

Pakistanis rallied in support of the army and intelligence services on Saturday in Karachi. U.S. officials strongly suspect that Pakistanis in the government, the military or the Inter-Services Intelligence directorate were aware of bin Laden’s location in their country. in mind, the American authorities have kept much of the evidence secret. Citing national security concerns, they have successfully moved to quash the defense lawyers’ subpoenas for State Department cables and records held by the FBI that discuss Pakistan’s links with militants.

Pakistan has stepped up its condemnations of the U.S. just as Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., the chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee and a longtime emissary to Pakistan in times of crisis, was preparing to land in Islamabad. He was arriving with a list of actions — and some offers from

Washington to ease tensions — that he finalized in a meeting on Thursday with President Barack Obama’s national security adviser, Thomas Donilon, and other top U.S. security officials.

A senior administration official said Saturday that the United States would try to use the threat of congressional cuts to the $3 billion in annual American aid to Pakistan as leverage. Any evidence of Pakistani complicity in sheltering bin Laden that is contained in the hundreds of computer flash drives and documents recovered in the commando raid on bin Laden’s compound could also be used, the official said. So far, no such evidence has been found.

Legal fight brews over bin Laden photos The Associated Press The Defense Department is refusing to do a speedy review of a Freedom of Information Act request for graphic photos of Osama bin Laden’s corpse, setting the stage for a protracted battle over access to the images.

In a letter to The Associated Press, the department said the AP did not demonstrate an urgent or compelling need for the photos or show that the information has a particular value that would be lost if not provided in an expedited manner. As a result, it is not clear when or if the photos will be provided.

The AP received the letter Friday, 11 days after it requested the photos and other material stemming from the May 2 raid by a team of Navy SEALs on bin Laden’s compound in Pakistan. Bin Laden’s body was later buried at sea.

2nd to last space shuttle launch is set for Monday The Associated Press CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — NASA’s next-to-last space shuttle flight is set to blast off Monday morning.

Mission managers gave the green light Saturday for the final voyage of Endeavour. Forecasters put the odds of acceptable weather at 70 percent.

Endeavour will fly to the International Space Station under the command of astronaut Mark Kelly, the husband of recuperating U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords. She will be at Cape Canaveral for this second launch attempt.

Late last month, an electrical problem in Endeavour’s engine compartment halted the initial countdown. A switch box and faulty thermostat were replaced.

Six veteran spacemen are assigned to the 16-day flight.

W B Worker is first to die at Japan’s nuke plant TOKYO — A man died on his second day working at Japan’s tsunami-wrecked nuclear power plant Saturday, and the plant operator said harmful levels of radiation were not detected in his body.

The contract worker in his 60s was the first person to die at the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear plant in northeastern Japan since March 11, when an earthquake and tsunami damaged the facility and caused fires, explosions and radiation leaks in the world’s secondworst nuclear accident.

Prime Minister Naoto Kan will declare at the forthcoming Group of Eight summit meeting Japan’s intention to continue utilizing nuclear power, based on the premise of enhancing the safety of nuclear power plants, according to news reports Saturday.

Obama seeks to speed up oil drilling Bulletin wire reports In an effort to defuse Republican and oil industry pressure over drilling permits and soothe public anger over gasoline prices, President Barack Obama is ordering the Interior Department to conduct annual lease sales in Alaska’s National Petroleum Reserve and speed up seismic work that is a precursor to drilling off the south and mid-Atlantic coasts.

In his Saturday radio address, Obama said he would also extend oil company leases in the Gulf of Mexico and Alaska where work was delayed by the drilling moratorium he imposed during the Gulf of Mexico oil spill resulting

from a blowout on a BP well.

He is also ordering the Interior Department to hold a Gulf lease sale this year and two in 2012, thus completing the department’s five-year plan for the area.

It was at least a partial concession to his critics at a time when consumers are paying near-record prices at the gas pump. But the moves are part of an effort to fulfill his pledge to increase domestic oil production and reduce oil imports, even as he acknowledges that it won’t alter gas prices in the short-run. They also resemble positions the president took just a month before the BP spill.

Obama’s administrative actions

come amid political hubbub over offshore drilling. In one week, the House passed three sweeping measures that would allow more drilling off the nation’s Alaskan, Pacific and Atlantic coasts as well as in the Gulf. The bills would also make it more difficult for drilling opponents to mount legal challenges based on environmental reviews. A senior official said the Obama administration had been “on track” to complete its drilling plans “regardless of legislation.”

Officials also said that the administration would scrutinize existing leases, arguing that half of leased areas onshore and 70 percent of those offshore were “in-

Afghan child killed

by NATO; 2nd in days For the second time in three days, a night raid in eastern Afghanistan by NATO forces resulted in the death of a child, setting off protests Saturday that turned violent and ended in the death of another boy.

A NATO spokesman apologized for the child’s death, which took place early Saturday in Nangahar province in the Hesarek district, a remote poppy-growing area close to Kabul province. There has been almost no NATO presence there throughout the war, and the area is thought to be heavily penetrated by the Taliban.

When morning came, more than 200 people marched with his body to the district center.

Police opened fire in an effort to push back the crowd; a 14year-old boy was killed.

Christian protesters attacked in Egypt CAIRO — An angry mob attacked a group of mainly Christian protesters demanding drastic measures to heal religious tension amid a spike in violence, leaving 65 people injured, officials said Sunday.

The Christian protesters have been holding their sitin outside the state television building in Cairo for nearly a week following deadly Christian-Muslim clashes that left a church burned and 15 people dead. More than 100 people rushed into the sit-in area, lobbing rocks and fire bombs from an overpass and charging toward the few hundred protesters sleeping in the area.

Vehicles were set on fire.

Religious clashes and a rising wave of crime have proved to be a major challenge for Egypt’s military rulers.

active” despite oil industry complaints about limited lease sales.

Still, “there is practically nothing that Washington can do that would materially change the price of fuel in this country,” said Raymond James analyst Pavel Molchanov, noting that the United States produces about 5 percent of the world’s petroleum while consuming about 20 percent.

“Given that imbalance, there is simply no policy shift that could plausibly come from the federal government that can significantly change that dynamic.”

WASHINGTON — Just two years after watching Democrats claim a 60th seat in the Senate, Republicans are heading into the 2012 election season well positioned to challenge them for control of the chamber, giving the party reason for optimism even as it worries about the strength of its presidential field.

With Democrats defending 23 seats to their 10, top Republicans believe they have a built-in advantage in their drive to pick up at least the four seats that would vault them into the majority even if President Barack Obama wins a second term and Vice President Joe Biden remains able to break Senate ties. And they calculate that their chances are enhanced because important races will be in relatively conservative states like Montana, Nebraska and North Dakota.

“With our encouragement, I do think people are focusing

on the Senate and how that can be the place where we can pick up the most yardage in 2012,” said Sen. John Cornyn of Texas, chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee.

The announcement Friday by Sen. Herb Kohl, the four-term Wisconsin Democrat, that he would not seek re-election only added to the difficulties facing Democrats in the Senate, which is now split 53 to 47.

Democrats say the struggle for the Senate is more than a numbers game. Acknowledging that the landscape looked grim in the days after the midterms, they say the outlook has improved, partly because House Republicans have pursued a conservative agenda that has allowed voters a good look at the GOP playbook if they controlled both chambers on Capitol Hill.

“It is changing, and it is changing for the better,” said Sen. Patty Murray of Washington, chairwoman of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee.

Charismatic pop star-turnedpresident Michel Martelly took over Haiti on Saturday, promising to rebuild its earthquakedevastated capital, develop the long-neglected countryside and build a modern army.

by Haitians tired of past leaders who failed to provide even basic services, such as decent

roads, water and electricity, in the Western Hemisphere’s poorest country.

Martelly was sworn in — during a power outage — in front of dozens of dignitaries, including Bill Clinton. Martelly did not speak as he left Parliament for the National Palace, where was to deliver a speech.

Outside the gated Parliament, more than 1,000 Martelly supporters gathered. “Today is a party for us, for the masses, because the country is destroyed,” said Esaue Rene, a 28-year-old mechanic.

While the administration said it would conduct environmental reviews on new lease areas, its announcement of new drilling in Alaska’s National Petroleum Reserve is likely to provoke protests from environmental groups. A senior official said the administration believed it could move ahead in Alaska in “attractive areas” for drilling while remaining “consistent with environmental values.”

Huckabee says he won’t run in 2012 LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee said Saturday he won’t seek the Republican presidential nomination, choosing to stick with a lucrative TV career over a race that would be both costly Mike Huckabee and caustic.

“All the factors say go, but my heart says no,” Huckabee, the winner of the 2008 Iowa caucuses, said on his Fox News Channel show.

Huckabee’s decision further muddies the GOP field. A prominent social conservative, he ranks high in national popularity polls.

“My answer is clear and firm,” Huckabee said. “I will not seek the Republican nomination for president this year,” said Huckabee, who has been out of public office since 2007.

MISSISSIPPI FLOODGATES OPEN IN LOUISIANA

By Reed Abelson New York Times News Service

Patrick Semansky / The Associated Press

Water from the inflated Mississippi River gushed through a floodgate Saturday for the first time in nearly four decades and headed toward thousands of homes and farmland in the Cajun countryside, threatening to slowly submerge the land under water up to 25 feet deep. As the gate was raised, the river poured out like a waterfall, at times spraying 6 feet into the air. Fish jumped or were hurled through the white froth and within 30 minutes, 100 acres of what was dry land was under about a foot of water.

Waters’ surge threatens homes — and Louisianans’ way of life

By Kim Severson New York Times News Service

BUTTE LA ROSE, La. — You do not really want to ask a Cajun why he lives in a swamp, especially when he is packing everything he owns because the very swamp he loves is about to swallow up his house.

The Army Corps of Engineers opened a portion of the Morganza spillway on Saturday afternoon to relieve pressure on the levees from a bulging Mississippi River, and millions of cubic feet of water will began rushing into the Atchafalaya Basin.

The corps expects to open more of the spillway in the coming days, allowing the water to rise steadily throughout the basin. In a day, maybe two, it will start to engulf this little river community in Cajun country.

Russell Melancon, 55, grew up pulling catfish, bass and crawfish from the Atchafalaya River and the swamp that surrounds it. He married here and is raising a son here.

And now, the place he loves is likely to drown. It could take a month or more for the water to seep back into the swamp behind the house he built with cypress boards and sweat.

Copperhead snakes might slither into the rafters. Alligators will take up residence on shed roofs.

Gardens fat with tomatoes will be gone, and mosquitoes will swarm in such thick clouds that even he, a Cajun with skin as thick as one of those alligators, might not be able to stand it. So why live in a swamp that everyone knows was likely to flood one day?

As Melancon crated up the belongings of three generations of family members Friday and got ready to pack his family into campers and cars, the answer was plain as the sticky Louisiana day.

“It’s where we was raised.

Where my daddy was raised.

Where we make our living,” he said. “Why you are here is something you never even think about.

You are this place.”

In what is surely the nation’s slowest-moving natural disaster, the flooded Mississippi has been working its way south through cities and farmland, leaving people homeless and crops in ruins as it hits record levels.

It will end here in southern Louisiana, where the Army Corp of Engineers on Friday decided to open part of the levee system that holds back the Mississippi and Atchafalaya Rivers. It was they only way, they said, to take the pressure off the levees that protect New Orleans and Baton Rouge.

The move will divert that water into what is essentially the big bathtub that is the Atchafalaya Basin, a stretch of water and land 20 miles wide and 150 miles long and like nowhere else in the United States.

“You can’t have the Cajun culture without the basin,” said Oliver Houck, a professor at Tulane University Law School who fought to preserve the basin when he was the general counsel and vice president of the National Wildlife Federation.

To the north, the water is mostly saturating farmland, leaving it possibly richer in nutrients than it was before. But here in the southern half of the basin, home to descendants of the Acadians who settled in the 1700s and where

Russell Melancon, 55, takes a break as his family packed in Butte La Rose, La. The opening of the Morganza Spillway into the Atchafalaya Basin is likely to flood the community. countless Louisiana residents have passed their childhoods fishing and playing among its bayous and backwater lakes, several thousand people could lose everything.

Unlike the Mississippi, which has been walled and manipulated by manufacturing and transportation and other byproducts of urban growth, the Atchafalaya River has been allowed to run wild, lacing through the longest stretch of river swamp in the country.

Still, the effects of levees and nature have conspired to fill the river with silt and change the quality of the water. That, in turn, has suppressed the fish and wildlife that rely on it. But the basin is still vastly more ecologically productive than the Everglades, Houck said.

Unlike the Mississippi, the Atchafalaya River still makes land, Houck said. It drops its silt where the river meets the Gulf of Mexico — an essential contribution in a part of the country’s shoreline that is losing as much as

29 square miles of land a year.

“And it’s very, very beautiful,” Houck said.

The Morganza spillway is part of a system of locks and levees built following the great flood of 1927, which killed hundreds and left many more without homes.

When the Morganza opened Saturday, it was the first time three flood-control systems have been unlocked at the same time along the Mississippi River, a sign of just

how historic the current flooding has been.

Earlier this month, the corps intentionally blew holes into a levee in Missouri to employ a similar cities-first strategy, and it also opened a spillway northwest of New Orleans.

Snowmelt and heavy rain swelled the Mississippi, and the river has peaked at levels not seen in 70 years.

The crest of the Mississippi was still more than a week away from the Morganza spillway, and when it arrives, officials expect it to linger. The bulge has broken river-level records held since the 1920s in some places as it rolled down the river, and prompted the corps to take drastic steps to protect lives.

The corps blew up a levee in Missouri — inundating an estimated 200 square miles of farmland and damaging or destroying about 100 homes — to take the pressure off floodwalls protecting the town of Cairo, Ill., population 2,800. The Morganza flooding is more controlled, however, and residents are warned by the corps each year in written letters, reminding them of the possibility of opening the spillway, which is 4,000 feet long and has 125 bays.

The nation’s major health insurers are barreling into a third year of record profits, enriched in recent months by a lingering recessionary mindset among Americans who are postponing or forgoing medical care.

The UnitedHealth Group, one of the largest commercial insurers, told analysts that so far this year, insured hospital stays actually decreased in some instances. In reporting its earnings last week, Cigna, another insurer, talked about the “low level” of medical use.

Yet the companies continue to press for higher premiums, even though their reserve coffers are flush with profits and shareholders have been rewarded with new dividends.

Many defend proposed double-digit increases in the rates they charge, citing a need for protection against any sudden uptick in demand.

Even with a halting economic recovery, doctors and others say people in some regions are still extremely budget-conscious, signaling the possibility of a fundamental change in Americans’ appetite for health care.

“I am noticing my patients with insurance are more interested in costs,” said Dr. Jim King, a family practice physician in rural Tennessee. “Gas prices are going up; food prices are going up. They are deciding to put some of their health care off.”

For someone like Shannon Hardin of California, whose hours at a grocery store have

been erratic, there is simply no spare cash to see the doctor when she isn’t feeling well or to get a $350 dental crown she has been putting off since last year. Even with insurance, she said, “I can’t afford to use it.” The insurers, which base what they charge in premiums largely on what they expect to pay out in future claims, say they still expect higher demand for care later this year.

Delaying care could keep utilization rates for insurers low through the rest of the year, according to Charles Boorady, an analyst for Credit Suisse.

“The big question is whether it is going to stay weak or bounce back,” he said.

Significant increases in how much people have to pay for their medical care may prevent a solid rebound. In recent years, many employers have sharply reduced benefits, while raising deductibles and co-payments so people have to reach deeper into their pockets.

Unabomber artifacts set for the auction block

By Ylan Q. Mui The Washington Post

There is nothing sinister about the gray hooded sweatshirt anymore, no mystery behind the aviator sunglasses.

Once, they were among the hallmarks of Ted Kaczynski, the anarchist Unabomber who killed three people and injured almost two dozen more during a nearly 20-year reign of terror. Now, his old clothes adorn a mannequin in a sterile government office in an online photo tagged

Unabomb0001.

This is the first of 51 lots of Kaczynski’s personal belongings that the government will auction online next week in what amounts to Uncle Sam’s version of eBay. The bidding begins Wednesday, but the Justice Department has posted pictures of the goods to its Flickr stream to drum up interest — a final swipe at a man bent on stopping technology in its tracks.

The auction is part of a court order finalized last summer to sell off Kaczynski’s property and

turn the proceeds over to victims of his attacks. There will be no reserve bids and no price ceilings. Instead, it will be up to the public to determine how much the remnants of Kaczynski’s life are worth.

His original, handwritten anarchist manifesto is photographed as Unabomb02. Unabomb42 shows the hand tools he kept stowed in a box of Tide detergent. Unabomb19 features a tan duffel bag. The items are housed at a Government Ser-

VIP Continued from A1 Their complaints are often electronically ferried to a subcontractor overseas, where a worker spends, on average, about two minutes figuring out the gist of the matter, boiling it down to a one-to-three-digit computer code that signifies the problem — “account not his/hers,” for example — and sending a dispute form to the creditor to investigate. Many times, consumer advocates say, the investigation translates to a perfunctory check of its records.

“The legal responsibility of the credit reporting agencies and of the creditors is well established,” said Leonard Bennett, a consumer lawyer in Newport News, Va. “There is a requirement that they do meaningful research and analysis, and it is almost never done.”

For the non-VIPers: “You are guilty before you are proven innocent in a situation like this,” said Catherine Taylor, 45, of Benton, Ark., who said she had been denied employment and credit because her filing was mixed up with a felon who had the same name and birthday.

Judy Johnson, of Bossier City, La., was confused with a less creditworthy Judith Johnson, with a similar address and Social Security number. For nearly seven years, Judy Johnson, a 63-yearold credit manager for a building supply company, said she tried to remove the black marks from her credit report. But when she was denied a credit card, she knew the problem had returned — a third time.

“This time, I was livid,” she said.

She ultimately brought a suit against one of the bureaus and recently settled for an amount she cannot disclose. But for her, the problems continue. A deputy sheriff recently came to her door to serve her papers for a debt she says she does not owe.

The credit rating bureaus, private-sector companies that each attempt to track all American consumers’ credit use, have grown much more powerful over the last couple of decades as credit has become a crucial cog in the nation’s financial system. Their reports are used to formulate the all-powerful credit score, which lenders use to determine creditworthiness.

But as the bureaus’ work has become more important, consumer advocates say, regulation has

Judy Johnson, of Bossier City, La., says she has had years of trouble because credit bureaus keep mixing up her records with Judith Johnson’s. not kept up, in large part because their overseer, the Federal Trade Commission, lacks broad authority. That could change once responsibility for the credit bureaus shifts to the new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, which will be able to write rules and examine the credit agencies’ policies.

The bureaus, meanwhile, do not have an economic incentive to improve the system, consumer advocates say, because their main customers are the creditors, not consumers.

“There is no neutrality in the credit reporting agencies,” said John Ulzheimer, who has been an expert witness in more than 80 credit-related cases and is president of consumer education at SmartCredit.com. “They work for the lenders who buy credit reports from them, and anyone who suggests otherwise is not being intellectually honest.”

When asked about the VIP category, TransUnion said all con-

sumers “have the ability to speak to a live representative.” Equifax said consumers who received a free copy of their credit report were provided with a number for customer service.

Experian denied that it had VIP lists. But a spokeswoman did say that prominent people deemed high risk — like politicians in an election year — might have their credit files taken offline so that creditors or other companies making inquiries could not get access without the bureau’s permission. Experian said those people did not receive any other special handling.

David Szwak, a consumer lawyer in Shreveport, La., who has handled dozens of credit cases, said that the VIP designation and preferential treatment did exist at Experian, and he provided sworn testimony from former Experian employees that the category existed.

The government regularly sells property it has confiscated from nefarious dealings. But rarely is there an auction like this one. Federal authorities seized the items from the wooded shack where Kaczynski lived in Lincoln, Mont., after he was arrested 15 years ago. These are not the spoils of a life of crime, but rather a grim documentary of his gradual descent from child genius to domestic terrorist.

with serious errors vary widely, anywhere from 3 to 25 percent. A recent study, paid for by the Consumer Data Industry Association, the trade group for the bureaus, found potential errors in 19.2 percent of reports but said that less than 1 percent of them had disputes that, when settled, resulted in a meaningful increase in scores. Even 1 percent translates into millions of consumers, since there are at least 200 million files at each of the bureaus.

The FTC is expected to deliver a nationwide study on credit report accuracy next year that could provide more clarity. It could also include recommendations for legislative action.

The volume of disputes has been rising as consumers borrow more and gain greater access to credit reports. The automated system was a response to that. A spokesman for the trade group said most consumers received an answer within 14 days.

Experian is the only bureau that still processes disputes in the United States, experts said, though most complaints wind their way through the same online system— unless the dispute involves a VIP. “They get a lot more high-end treatment,” said Szwak, the lawyer, who has read the bureaus’ internal procedure manuals and deposed or cross-examined employees. The biggest difference at TransUnion and Equifax, lawyers said, is that VIP’s disputes are specially handled domestically.

Regular consumers’ files, meanwhile, may get priority treatment if they involve a time-sensitive issue, like a mortgage pending, or if the consumer is represented by a lawyer or dealing with fraud.

Water Continued from A1 Wickiup Reservoir is also at its highest level for this date since 2000, he said, as water has been flowing in from upstream and the irrigation demand has been low because of the weather.

“I’ll probably be storing in at least two of the reservoirs,” Giffin said. “It’s exceptional.

Usually the snowmelt has happened or is happening right now, where it’s looking like it hasn’t really started yet.”

The flow of the Deschutes River as it enters Bend typically increases in mid-April and May, as natural flows from the Little Deschutes increase and empty into the main Deschutes, and as water managers ramp up releases from the reservoirs for irrigation districts.

Flows upstream of Bend are about average for this time of year, Giffin said, and are slated to jump higher after this weekend, when irrigation districts are allowed to take more water for the summer.

But with more water flowing down the Little Deschutes, managers can store more in the reservoir for later in the summer when the snowpack dries up, Giffin said.

If more water is left over in the reservoir after irrigation season is over, it will be easier to fill it in the winter. That means officials could be able to release more water down the Upper Deschutes during the winter, when they would otherwise be holding back the flows to ensure the reservoir fills up.

“It helps the fishery out of Wickiup and Sunriver,” Giffin said.

The late spring and snowmelt could cause some flooding problems in Whychus Creek, Tumalo Creek and the Little Deschutes, Giffin said. A slow,

“It’s exceptional.

Usually the snowmelt has happened or is happening right now, where it’s looking like it hasn’t really started yet.”

— Jeremy Giffin, Deschutes Basin watermaster steady melt might not be much of a problem, but sudden warm weather and thunderstorms could cause a rush of snowmelt.

“We could see some localized flooding,” Giffin said. “It depends on how it comes off.”

Although the flows are high above Bend, they still drop off dramatically after the irrigation water is diverted at the diversion dam in the city.

“The river is needy below the diversions every year,” said Tod Heisler, executive director of the Deschutes River Conservancy.

While the flow of the Deschutes River at Benham Falls was more than 1,800 cubic feet per second Friday, the flow below Bend was 110 cubic feet per second.

This year, however, through partnerships with the irrigation districts and water leasing programs that keep water instream, the amount of water below Bend could be as high as 150 cubic feet per second, he said, noting that is relatively high for this time of year.

And on Whychus Creek, when there often isn’t enough water to fill the water rights of irrigators and the water rights to be left instream, a big snowpack and wet spring really helps, Heisler said.

“A season like this one will make it much easier for the district to serve not only its patrons, but also the instream water rights as well,” he said.

Food

tries to make their own decisions about biotechnology,” said Rob Bertram of the U.S. Agency for International Development, which runs Feed the Future. “We want to make sure these technologies don’t bypass the needs of the poor.”

This month, eight of the world’s leading foundations, including the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and the Ford Foundation, announced they were launching a major initiative “designed to impact food and agricultural policies on a global scale.”

For the food aid and development communities, the attention was a long time coming. For the past three decades or so, most researchers and policymakers agree, the world’s governments have largely neglected global food security. But where government involvement has diminished, private-sector interest has grown.

Genetically modified crops, for example, are now grown by 14 million farmers.

Gurian-Sherman has questioned the industry’s claims that biotech food crops yield more. In his 2009 report “Failure to Yield,” he found that corn engineered to resist insects yielded about 3 to 4 percent more since the mid-1990s, while soybeans yields were flat.

To the extent that yields have gone up in some crops, GurianSherman believes conventional breeding techniques may have contributed more than genetic engineering.

“Conventional breeding has been neglected globally for 30, 40 years. There’s a huge amount of genetic potential that’s being shown all the time,” he said. “If we’re talking about developing countries, do we want to support conventional breeding that costs a million a trait (to develop), or do we want to support genetic engineering that costs tens of millions a trait?”

That question, some believe, is especially apt in light of some recent research showing gains from conventional and organic methods. A U.N. report issued in March, for example, showed that small-scale farmers using “agroecological methods” doubled production without chemical fertilizers. While these methods show promise, the report’s author, Olivier de Schutter notes: “Private companies will not invest time and money in practices that cannot be rewarded by patents and which don’t open markets for chemical products or improved seeds.”

10 billion by 2100?

Continued from A1 “With this challenge of nearly needing to double food production, where’s this quantum leap going to come from?” said Roger Thurow, a fellow at the Chicago Council on Global Affairs and author of “Enough,” a book examining famine and politics in Africa.

“Hopefully the price spikes of 2007 and 2008 would have woken us up. But, boom, here it comes again. We’re at this new level of prices, and we got this looming.

We have to produce more food.”

On its website, in presentations and in interviews, Monsanto hits the message frequently. Farmers, the website says, will have to produce more food in the next few decades than they have in the last 10,000 years combined. With finite resources, crops genetically engineered to withstand pests, to yield more and to one day prove resistant to drought will be critical to meeting global food needs, the message goes.

“Our vision is really about giving farmers a robust set of tools,” said Natalie Dinicola of Monsanto’s sustainable agriculture partnership division.

But is production the real problem?

Industry critics question the claimed yields and pointing to recent research suggesting that organic or nonbiotech conventional farming methods could provide more food and better livelihoods for farmers in the developing world.

As about 1 billion people in the world go hungry, some researchers and policymakers argue that conventional techniques such as hybrid crops and fertilizers can produce more food more quickly, particularly by small-scale farms in developing countries. Efforts to expand biotech farming into such areas, they argue, aren’t appropriate for the large-scale, capital-intensive operations better suited to the technologies of Monsanto and others. “‘(Genetically modified) crops are needed to feed the growing population’ has been a central industry claim since around 1999,” said Glenn Stone, a professor of anthropology and environmental studies at Washington University.

“I am not yet convinced that it fits the evidence.”

Population projections peering out several decades are far from

OV E R

The population of the world, long expected to stabilize just above 9 billion in the middle of the century, will instead keep growing and may hit 10.1 billion by the year 2100, the United Nations projected in a report released this month — which comes just ahead of a demographic milestone, with the world population expected to pass 7 billion this October, only a dozen years after it surpassed 6 billion.

certain, he said. Meanwhile, he and others point out, malnutrition is rarely a question of global food production but of distribution and poverty.

Some critics also suggest that Monsanto highlights fears of global shortages to break down resistance to its biotech products in developing countries.

“To me, it’s kind of a little like giving cigarettes free to kids,” said Doug Gurian-Sherman, a researcher with the Union of Concerned Scientists. “The goal is to get in the door.”

This January in Davos, Switzerland, at the World Economic Forum, the governments of developing countries and nongovernmental organizations — led by 17 multinational food and agriculture companies, including Monsanto — formed a task force called “Realizing a New Vision for Agriculture.”

They met to address the challenge of food security — of providing food for 2 billion more people in the next four decades with finite land and resources.

“We know that will take not only innovation but a lot of collaboration,” said Jim Borel of Dupont, who said the initiative will work with nongovernmental organizations and governments “to get the pump primed and get things moving” for technology-friendly regulations and infrastructure.

‘Feed the Future’ Another major effort called Feed the Future, launched by President Barack Obama’s administration in 2009, attempts to leverage a $3.5 billion government pledge to lure investment from the private sector. The effort focuses on agricultural technologies of all kinds, including biotechnology.

Melatonin makes a comeback — leaving experts unrelaxed

By Catherine Saint Louis

Bar patrons consume Lazy Cake brownies while drinking in Erie, Pa. The brownie, which has about 8 milligrams of melatonin, is being promoted as a dietary supplement to alleviate stress and insomnia.

But some doctors have warned about the ’90s-era supplement’s harmful effects.

New York Times News Service

Remember melatonin? In the 1990s, this over-the-counter dietary supplement was all the rage among frequent fliers, promoted as the miracle cure for jet lag. Now it’s back in vogue, this time as a prominent ingredient in at least a half-dozen baked goods that flagrantly mimic the soothing effects of hash brownies — and do so legally. For now.

With names like Lazy Cakes, Kush Cakes and Lulla Pies, these products are sold online and at stores like 7-Eleven, Walgreens, smoke shops and even at the Harvard Square Coop, the university’s student bookstore, for roughly $3 to $4 each. (A bottle of 60 8-milligram melatonin tablets costs about $11.) At some places, the drug-packed desserts can be paid for with food stamps.

Although the Food and Drug Administration has not approved melatonin as a food additive or deemed it safe, the dessert makers are marketing their products as a harmless way to promote relaxation.

Gabby Bevel, 22, a writer from Norman, Okla., and an insomniac who took Ambien and Lunesta in high school, said in an interview that she slept 13 hours after eating one Lazy Cakes snack recently. “I don’t like the idea of needing something unnatural to help me with anything,” she said.

“Really, I think part of the appeal is it does come in a brownie.”

But these snacks contain roughly 8 milligrams of melatonin per brownie or cookie, so selling them is similar to a parent serving an unsuspecting child applesauce containing a crushed aspirin tablet to make it go down easier. “It’s making it much more difficult for the consumer to recognize that they are taking a drug,” said Dr. Charles Czeisler, the chief of the division of sleep medicine at Harvard’s Brigham and Women’s Hospital.

Nick Collado, a 26-year-old insomniac and the founder of Lulla

Dan Cappellazzo New York Times News Service

Pies, argued that the melatonin in the pies, while synthetic, is more “natural” than the Ambien he once took. “I realized there’s got to be more people like me who don’t want to take prescription drugs anymore,” Collado said.

But Dr. David Seres, the director of medical nutrition at Columbia Medical Center, cautioned that consumers should consult their doctors before trying such products.

“The promoters of these are appealing to people who think it’s better to do things outside of the medical establishment,” he said, adding that “the desire to help people is an extremely strong motivator, but so is money.” He pointed to a section of the National Institutes of Health’s website that lists several drugs, including sedatives like clonazepam and birth control pills, whose efficacy might be altered by melatonin.

Lazy Cakes appear harmless, even amusing, with swirly purple packaging; Kush Cakes have a

tie-dye-printed wrapper. But they are not to be underestimated.

Of melatonin, Seres warned, “If you take it while you’re driving a car, you will find yourself in a ditch.”

Maybe. Dr. Alfred Lewy, a professor of psychiatry at Oregon Health & Science University who has studied melatonin, a neurohormone, estimated that only a third of the population is susceptible to its effects in a supplement.

But some medical professionals are concerned that the chocolate taste might encourage indiscriminate gobbling. “It’s a colossally bad idea to put melatonin in food,” Czeisler said. “It should not be permitted by the FDA.” Technically, it is not. Stephanie Yao, a spokeswoman at the FDA, wrote in an e-mail that any item that uses melatonin “as an additive may be subject to regulatory action.” That is why the makers of these new baked goods label them “Not for food use.”

C OV ER S T OR I ES “From the outside, the third generation has had it all — prosperity, access to education, peace and stability. Yet they grew up with a lot of unspoken secrets, felt the silent burdens in their families that were often paired with a lack of emotional warmth and vague anxieties.”

— Sabine Bode, a Holocaust author

Nazi past Continued from A1 Rainer Hoess was 12 years old when he found out his grandfather was one of the worst mass murderers in history.

The gardener at his boarding school, an Auschwitz survivor, beat him black and blue after hearing he was the grandson of Rudolf Hoess, commandant of the death camp synonymous with the Holocaust.

“He beat me, because he projected on me all the horror he went through,” Rainer Hoess said, with a shrug and a helpless smile. “Once a Hoess, always a Hoess. Whether you’re the grandfather or the grandson — guilty is guilty.”

Some Germans like Hoess have launched an obsessive solitary search. Others seek help from seminars and workshops that have sprung up across Germany to provide research guidance and psychological support.

“From the outside, the third generation has had it all — prosperity, access to education, peace and stability,” said Sabine Bode, who has written books on how the Holocaust weighs on German families today. “Yet they grew up with a lot of unspoken secrets, felt the silent burdens in their families that were often paired with a lack of emotional warmth and vague anxieties.”

Resistance to poking around in the past Like others, Hoess had to overcome fierce resistance within his own family, who preferred that he “not poke around in the past.”

Undeterred, he spent lonely hours at archives and on the Internet researching his grandfather.

Rudolf Hoess was in charge of Auschwitz from May 1940 to November 1943. He came back to Auschwitz for a short stint in 1944, to oversee the murder of some 400,000 Hungarian Jews in the camp’s gas chambers within less than two months.

The commandant lived in a luxurious mansion at Auschwitz with his wife and five children — among them Hans-Rudolf, the father of Rainer. Only 150 yards away the crematories’ chimneys were blowing out the ashes of the dead day and night.

After the war, Hoess went into hiding on a farm in northern Germany; he was eventually captured and hanged in 1947, in front of his former home on the grounds of Auschwitz.

“When I investigate and read about my grandfather’s crimes, it tears me apart every single time,” Hoess said during a recent interview at his home in a little Black Forest village.

As a young man, he said, he tried twice to kill himself. He has suffered three heart attacks in recent years as well as asthma, which he says gets worse when he digs into his family’s Nazi past.

Today, Hoess says, he no longer feels guilty, but the burden of the past still weighs on him.

“My grandfather was a mass murderer — something that I can only be ashamed and sad about,” said the 45-year-old chef and father of two boys and two girls. “However, I do not want to close my eyes and pretend nothing ever happened, like the rest of my family still does ... I want to stop the curse that’s been haunting my family ever since, for the sake of myself and that of my own children.”

Hoess is no longer in contact with his father, brother, aunts and cousins, who all call him a traitor.

Strangers often look at him with distrust when he tells them about his grandfather — “as if I could have inherited his evil.”

‘Too ashamed’ Despite such reactions, descendants of Nazis — from high-ranking officials to lowly foot soldiers — are increasingly trying to find out what their families did between 1933 to 1945.

“The Nazis — the first generation — were too ashamed to talk about the crimes they committed and covered everything up. The second generation often had trouble personally confronting their Nazi parents. So now it is up to the grandchildren to lift the curses off their families,” said Bode.

It was only during her university years — reading books about the Holocaust — that Ursula Boger found out her grandfather was the most dreaded torturer at Auschwitz.

“I felt numb for days after I read about what he did,” recalled Boger, a shy, soft-spoken woman who lives near Freiburg in southwestern Germany. “For many years I was ashamed to tell anybody about him, but then I realized that my own silence was eating me up from inside.”

Her grandfather, Wilhelm Boger, invented the so-called Boger swing at Auschwitz — an iron bar that hung on chains from the ceiling. Boger would force naked inmates to bend over the bar and beat their genitals until they fainted or died.

Boger, 41, said it took her several years of therapy and group seminars to begin to come to terms with the fact her grandfather was a monster.

“I felt guilty, even though I hadn’t committed a crime myself, felt like I had to do only good things at all times to make up for his evil,” she said.

Like Hoess, Boger never personally met her grandfather, who died in prison in 1977. After her father died five years ago, she found old letters from her grandfather begging to see his grandchildren in prison — something that never happened.

“It all just doesn’t go together,” Boger said. “He is the man who killed a little boy with an apple who came in on a transport to Auschwitz, by smashing his head against a wall until he was dead, and then picked up and ate that apple.

“At the same time, he put a picture of myself as a little girl over his bed in prison. How am I supposed to come to terms with this?”

Tanja Hetzer, a therapist in Berlin, helps clients dealing with issues related to their family’s Nazi past. While there are no studies or statistics, she said, many cases indicate that descendants of families who have never dealt with their Nazi family history suffer more from depression, burnout and addiction, in particular alcoholism.

A prominent case Bettina Goering, the grandniece of Hermann Goering, one of the country’s leading Nazis and the head of the Luftwaffe air force, said in an Israeli TV documentary that she decided to be sterilized at age 30 “because I was afraid to bear another such monster.”

Some grandchildren of Nazis find a measure of catharsis in confronting the past.

Alexandra Senfft is the granddaughter of Hanns Elard Ludin, Hitler’s Slovakia envoy who was involved in the deportation of almost 70,000 Jews. After Ludin was hanged in 1947, his widow raised the children in the belief their father was “a good Nazi.”

In her book, “The Pain of Silence,” Senfft describes how a web of lies burdened her family over decades, especially her mother, who was 14 years old when her beloved father was hanged.

“It was unbearable at times to work on this book, it brought up fears and pain, but at the same time I got a lot out of writing it all down,” Senfft, a lively 49-yearold, explained during an interview at a Berlin coffee shop. “If I had continued to remain oblivious and silent about my grandfather’s crimes, I would have become complicit myself, perhaps without even being aware of it.”

These days Rainer Hoess lectures schoolchildren about the Nazi era and anti-Semitism. A few months ago, he visited Auschwitz for the first time and met a group of Israeli students.

That day was “probably the most difficult and intense day in my life,” Hoess said, but it was also liberating because he realized that the third generation of Jews after the Holocaust did not hold him responsible. One Israeli girl even gave him a little shell with a blue Star of David painted on it, which he now wears around his neck on a black leather necklace at all times.

Hoess acknowledges that his grandfather will probably never stop haunting him. After his visit to Auschwitz, he met Jozef Paczynski, a Polish camp survivor and the former barber of Commandant Hoess.

“Somehow, subconsciously, I was hoping that maybe he would tell me one positive story about my grandfather, something that shows that he wasn’t all evil after all, that there was some goodness in him,” Hoess confided.

Paczynski asked Hoess to get up and walk across the room — then told him: “You look exactly like your grandfather.”

Greenland bets on boom as a path to independence

By Marianne Stigset Bloomberg News

NUUK, Greenland — Greenland is betting a two-year commodity-price boom will bring it closer to ending almost three centuries of direct Danish colonial rule.

The Arctic island is becom-

Marine Continued from A1 Thompson’s first impression of Afghanistan came as he was getting off the plane: “It was like somebody turned a hair dryer on in your face.”

Thompson’s unit was stationed at Marjah, in Helmand province, in the south-central part of the country, and he and his team worked out of the Marine base nicknamed “Camp Leatherneck.”

The terrain ranged from desert to mountains, Thompson said, and the Taliban had ruled the area for years. Thompson and his team would be inserted by helicopter into an area at night, and then they would stay in the field for up to 36 days at a time. They would be resupplied by air, and their job was to collect intelligence and to disrupt Taliban activities.

“Every house was allowed to have an AK-47, so seeing someone carrying a gun didn’t necessarily mean they were Taliban,” he said. “The only way you could tell was when they started shooting.

“The Afghans have been fighting somebody forever.

They are good fighters, and they know what they’re doing.”

The Afghan people didn’t support the Taliban, Thompson said, and were generally happy to cooperate with the Americans.

“The Taliban are basically thugs and armed gangs, and they had completely run over the people,” he said. “They

Waters off Greenland may hold 48 billion barrels of oil equivalent, the U.S. Geological Survey estimates, almost double 2009 U.S. oil reserves. The

island has also become a target for companies seeking minerals such as iron and diamonds.

“There’s a stronger belief that we can free ourselves from Denmark’s economic and political domination,” Prime Minister Kuupik Kleist, 53, said in an interview in the capital Nuuk.

would force farmers to grow marijuana and poppies so they could make drugs to sell.”

The Taliban didn’t give up ground easily, and Thompson said the fighting was heavy and frequent. During one firefight, Thompson was hit in the helmet with a bullet. In August, the armored vehicle Thompson and his team were riding in hit an improvised explosive device. Several were injured, he said, but the armor saved anyone from getting killed.

On Oct. 25, 2010, while on patrol, Thompson was following the point man, Cpl. Todd Love, into a building that they had already been in once. An IED had been placed in the building, apparently some sort of land mine.

Love was running the metal detector, and Thompson was right behind him, scanning the area for snipers and providing security.

Love stepped on an IED, and the blast blew off both of his legs and one arm. Thompson sustained shrapnel cuts and abrasions to his arms, neck and his face. His mouth was cut with shrapnel, his top teeth were knocked out, exposing roots, and his jaw was slightly fractured.

Thompson wasn’t knocked out, but as the dust cleared, he couldn’t see.

“I thought I had dust in my eyes,” he said. “I took out my morphine and gave myself a shot. I

gave my tourniquet to the medic who was working on Todd.”

Thompson and Love were evacuated by helicopter to Camp Leatherneck and from there to an Army base in Kandahar, where initial surgery on Thompson was performed. The two were flown to Germany en route to Bethesda Naval Hospital outside of Washington, D.C. Thompson’s father left his job, flew to Bethesda, and for two months “did Kyle’s laundry and was his walking stick.”

“Kyle couldn’t see for two months, so I took or walked him wherever he needed to go. I did run him into a tree once, and an elevator, but that was accidental,” Michael Thompson said. “You do whatever you have to. It’s like when they’re little — you take care of them.”

Thompson’s injuries proved to be severe. He lost his left eye, and his right eye has healed to the point where he has 20/40 vision. He has had surgeries on his mouth, closing and cleaning wounds, and now awaits healing before dental implants can be put in. His face has healed; only a few scars remain.

Thompson will be in the Ma-

rines probably until the end of July, he said, then he must have five more dental surgeries over the next 12 to 15 months.

His plans include college, possibly at Central Oregon Community College in Bend.

And despite his severe wounds, Thompson is satisfied with how things have worked out.

“It felt like we were making a difference in Afghanistan, and doing good things for people,” Thompson said. “I have no regrets at all.”

Yemen’s riots take on an air of permanence Bulletin wire reports SANAA, Yemen — When demonstrations began in February aimed at toppling long-ruling Yemen President Ali Abdullah Saleh, they were of a humble size, filling only the area immediately outside the entrance to Sanaa University, an area now known as Change Square.

But the sit-in has swollen to a veritable tent city that stretches nearly two miles, shutting off traffic in a large portion of the nation’s capital. Many tents there have a permanent look, wired for electricity and, in many cases, wireless Internet.

The demonstrators seem no closer to achieving their goal. A supposed agreement that would have had Saleh resign, brokered by the Gulf Cooperation Council, appears to have fallen through, with neither side willing to support it. “How can anything headed by the GCC lead to democracy?” said Abdulrahman Abdullah al-Kamadi, a

Tensions rise on eve of Israel’s anniversary

demonstrator who has camped out in the square for more than two months. “The emirates and kingdoms of the GCC are the enemy of any revolution. … This is not a political crisis; this is a revolution.”

Where the largely-leaderless protest movement will go is uncertain. The political turmoil is showing itself in growing hardship for the average Yemeni. Gas rationing, water shortages and power outages have become commonplace. And on Saturday, gunmen attacked and killed six soldiers at a checkpoint in a central province as security forces clashed with protesters.

Meanwhile, as a crackdown sweeps across Syria to the north, hundreds are fleeing that country to neighboring Lebanon to escape violence that has claimed the lives of more than 800 civilians. More than 5,000 Syrians have fled in the past weeks, with more than 500 crossing the border on Saturday alone, Lebanese officials said.

A crowd of Yemenis, a few face-painted with the colors of the national flag, demands the resignation of the president in Sanaa on Saturday.

Israeli soldiers run past burning tires under a mural of the late Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat during clashes Saturday with Palestinian stone throwers at a checkpoint between Jerusalem and the West Bank following a protest to mark the upcoming 63rd anniversary of “Nakba” — Arabic for “catastrophe” — the term used to mark the events leading to Israel’s founding in 1948.

Tensions were high in East Jerusalem on Saturday as hundreds of Palestinians buried a 17-year-old demonstrator who was shot in the stomach Friday during stone-throwing demonstrations and died Saturday.

Witnesses said the gunshot came either from an Israeli security guard or a Jewish shop owner.

The police presence is expected to be heavy across

Israel today, 63 years after Israel declared independence on May 15, 1948. Back then, armies from neighboring Arab states attacked the new nation; during the war that followed, hundreds of thousands of Palestinians fled or were driven from their homes. The refugees and their descendants remain a central issue of contention in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

The possibility of escalating violence comes at a critical time for American Mideast policy. President Barack Obama’s envoy to the region resigned Friday, and the Obama administration may now have to retool its incremental approach to peacemaking. Obama is to deliver a Mideast policy speech in the coming week.

BLACKWATER’S RESURGENCE

Food, Home & Garden In

War contracting gets a new ally in the Mideast

Every Tuesday

By Mark Mazzetti and Emily B. Hager New York Times News Service

ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates — Late one night in November, a plane carrying dozens of Colombian men touched down in this glittering seaside capital.

Whisked through customs by an Emirati intelligence officer, the group boarded an unmarked bus and drove roughly 20 miles to a windswept military complex in the desert sand.

The Colombians had entered the United Arab Emirates posing as construction workers. In fact, they were soldiers for a secret U.S.-led mercenary army being built by Erik Prince, the billionaire founder of Blackwater Worldwide, with $529 million from the oil-soaked sheikdom.

Prince, who resettled here last year after his security business faced mounting legal problems in the U.S., was hired by the crown prince of Abu Dhabi to assemble an 800-member battalion of foreign troops for the United Arab Emirates, according to U.S. officials, former employees on the project and corporate documents obtained by The New York Times.

(Blackwater, which renamed itself Xe Services, paid $42 million in fines last year for training foreign troops in Jordan and other countries over the years.)

The force is intended to conduct special operations missions inside and outside the country, defend oil pipelines and skyscrapers from terrorist attacks and put down internal revolts, the documents show. Such troops could be deployed if the Emirates faced unrest in crowded labor camps — or democracy protests like those sweeping the Arab world.

In outsourcing critical parts of their defense to mercenaries — the soldiers of choice for medieval kings and African dictators — the Emiratis have begun a new era in the boom in wartime contracting since the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.

And by relying on a force largely created by Americans, they have introduced a volatile new element in an already combustible region where the United States is widely viewed with suspicion.

The United Arab Emirates — an autocracy with the sheen of a progressive, modern state — are closely allied with the United States, and U.S. officials indicated that the battalion program had some support in Washington.

“The gulf countries, and the U.A.E. in particular, don’t have a lot of military experience. It would make sense if they looked outside their borders for help,” said one Obama administration official who knew of the operation. “They might want to show that they are not to be messed with.”

Still, it is not clear whether the project has U.S. official blessing.

Legal experts and government officials said some of those involved with the battalion might be breaking federal laws that prohibit U.S. citizens from training foreign

This foreign military force was planned months before the socalled Arab Spring revolts that many experts believe are unlikely to spread to the United Arab Emirates. At the time, Iran was a particular concern, and some security consultants believe Prince’s efforts to bolster the Emirates’ defenses against an Iranian threat might yield some benefits for the U.S. government, which shares the Emirates’ concern about creeping Iranian influence in the region.

“As much as Erik Prince is a pariah in the United States, he may be just what the doctor ordered in the U.A.E.,” a U.S. security consultant familiar with the topic said.

Changes to PERS face an uphill fight

By Lauren Dake The Bulletin

SALEM — Rep. Jason Conger came into the session as a first-term representative eager to alter the system.

And although he hasn’t given up and is in the midst of working on a bill he believes could help school districts, he realizes any changes to the state’s retirement system will be an uphill battle.

“I’m discouraged by the political environment and the lack of will to confront this problem,” he said.

Five months into the legislative session, changes to the Oregon Public Employees Retirement System have stalled amid questions of legality, fairness and politics.

The Bulletin

SALEM — The use of a restricted law enforcement database by the Deschutes County District Attorney’s Office has drawn attention from an office of the Oregon State Police.

On Thursday afternoon an auditor for the state police Law Enforcement Data System questioned District Attorney Patrick Flaherty and his chief

deputy, Traci Anderson, about an allegation that the data system, known as LEDS, had been used improperly to determine who was parking in the District Attorney’s Office lot.

The auditor’s trip to Bend found no evidence that rules were violated, and the review is considered closed. But LEDS is pursuing another inquiry into whether the office improperly used the system to obtain infor-

mation concerning local defense lawyer Michael Romano.

Flaherty did not respond to The Bulletin’s request to discuss the allegations.

Romano, a former prosecutor, expressed concern when informed he had been the subject of a LEDS check.

For a prosecutor to run a check on an opposing defense lawyer would be “unheard of,” he said.

What’s ahead • RAISING THE BAR ON EDUCATIONAL STANDARDS Monday, 1 p.m.: House Committee on Education. Two bills are scheduled to have public hearings; one, Senate Bill 244, requires the State Board of Education to adopt a goal of increased learning time for students. The other, SB 253, revises the mission of higher education to include a goal that 40 percent of Oregonians earn their bachelor’s degree and another 40 percent reach an associate or other post-secondary degree; the remaining 20 percent should obtain a high school degree.

• MAKING AUDIT-RELATED DOCUMENTS MORE SECRET Monday, 1 p.m.: The Senate General Government, Consumer and Small Business Protection Committee is scheduled to hold a hearing on Senate Bill 2247, which would make it more difficult for members of the public to obtain records that an agency says are deemed related to an ongoing audit, either one conducted by an outside auditing agency such as the Secretary of State or an internal agency audit. It would also make it more difficult to obtain drafts of audits until the audit is completed or the audit is deemed “abandoned” by the agency conducting it.

Scott David Parsons, 49, was declared dead at the scene following efforts to revive him.

Bend Police arrived at the crash scene on the southbound parkway off ramp at Butler Market Road at approximately 2:45 p.m., where they found Parsons lying on a rock outcropping on the east side of the off ramp. Initial investigation suggests Parsons was following another motorcyclist southbound on the parkway when they both exited at the Butler Market off ramp. Parsons is thought to have lost control of his motorcycle, gone off the road and gotten thrown from the motorcycle onto the rock outcropping.

Police are continuing to investigate the crash.

More hydropower!

A captain with the La Pine Rural Fire Protection District was killed Friday in a two-vehicle crash on U.S. Highway 97 about seven miles north of La Pine.

James Judson Palmer, 37, who had been with the fire district since 1999, was entering the highway at the intersection with State Recreation Road at around 5:35 p.m. when his vehicle was struck by a southbound vehicle driven by Roy Gus McMahon, 48, of La Pine.

Palmer was pronounced dead at the scene. McMahon and his passenger, 48-yearold Kimberly Marie McMahon, were taken by ambulance to St. Charles Bend with non-life threatening injuries. A section of the highway was restricted to one lane for more than two hours while emergency crews responded to the crash.

s a new hydropower project comes on line in Juniper Ridge, Bend is adding another local, renewable source of electricity.

Central Oregon Irrigation District’s hydropower facility north of Bend has already produced more than 1 million kilowatt hours and is gearing up for its full season of power production. In one year, the district expects the hydropower facility will generate about 13.5 million kilowatt hours, said Steve Johnson, district manager, which is enough electricity to power about 1,200 homes.

Add that to the existing small hydropower plant operated by Central Oregon Irrigation District, which produces enough power for about 2,100 houses, and Swalley Irrigation District’s new hydropower plant that produces about 750 houses worth of electricity, and about one-tenth of the annual electricity use of the Bend’s 40,000 homes could be met, he said.

Washington Week WASHINGTON — Both of Oregon’s senators introduced legislation this week. Along with Sen. Olympia Snowe, R-Maine, Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., offered the Regulation of Mortgage Servicing Act, designed to make rules governing mortgage providers simpler for consumers. The bill requires one point of contact for borrowers so they know whom they’re dealing with, as well as a thirdparty review before a home is sent into foreclosure.

“Every day Oregonians call my office with horror stories of applying for mortgage modifications. Families are rejected for modification because their payments aren’t current after being told to stop making their payments so they will qualify.

“Families have to tell their stories again and again to different people at the servicing company. Families get foreclosed upon while they are still negotiating a loan modification,” said Merkley in a news release. “This legislation will put these bad practices to an end.”

Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., along with Sen. John Thune, R-S.D., introduced the Digital Goods and Services Tax Fairness Act. The bill seeks to prevent local governments from applying local taxes to electronic goods and services — an app on a smartphone, say, or a digital file of a song — in an effort to bolster local coffers as states struggle with budget shortfalls.

“The need for this bill is especially critical right now, because what you have is a lot of states and localities in a climate like this being short-sighted. They’re saying, ‘Hey, we can go out there and milk this digital world — all these new services, these apps — and we can raise a whole bunch of revenue, and no one will ever see the consequences,’” Wyden told Politico this week.

The Senate also confirmed three federal judges this week, with Wyden and Merkley voting in favor of all three.

REAL ESTATE

WILLS/PROBATE/ESTATE My husband and I have made our wills with an attorney about five years ago. In mine I left a sum of money to each sibling and their kids. Since then, I have paid all of them this sum, explaining that they could use the money now and not have to wait for my death. Can I make an addendum or something saying they have all been paid and that part of the will is now void?

Yes, you can do an amendment to your will which is called a codicil. The codicil must be witnessed with the same formalities as a will to be effective. So, you would need two witnesses to witness your signature on the codicil. I also recommend that you have the witness’s signatures notarized since this makes probate of your will easier after your death.

Q

You should enter into a formal agreement with the children that spells out the terms of the loan and their repayment obligation. Payment of the loan should then be secured by recording a trust deed (or mortgage) against the property with the County Clerk. You may also want to make arrangements to control disbursement of the loan funds directly to the contractor, subcontractors and material providers to assure all bills are paid and no liens are filed. I strongly urge you to seek competent legal assistance before proceeding.

Oregon has its own form of Powers of Attorney and health care directives. While Oregon law recognizes out of state forms of these documents, it is best to have your mother execute the equivalent Oregon forms so there is no question as to their validity.

There is no requirement that you inform your employer that you are filing bankruptcy.

However, if you have a current garnishment then you will have to inform your payroll department so that the garnishment is stopped.

My elderly mother just moved to Bend. About five years ago she executed a trust, will, power of attorney and health care directive in California where she previously resided. Should she have these documents reviewed and possibly amended now that she lives in Oregon?

Former Democratic Rep. Judy Stiegler, who lost to Conger in the last election, said it’s ill-advised to blame PERS for all the state’s budgetary problems.

“There is an obligation that is both legal, and it’s been recognized by the courts, but also ethical to treat (public employees) fairly. But that doesn’t mean there aren’t some inefficiencies (in PERS),” she said. “I don’t go looking to PERS as the big bad wolf that needs to have its head lopped off, so we can save the day.”

Locally, for the Bend-La Pine School District, the cost of funding the state’s retirement system looks likely to double.

“It basically transfers into a $5 million increase in costs, and those costs bring us nothing,” said Deputy Superintendent John Rexford. “It doesn’t mean more teachers in the classroom.

It doesn’t put more educational assistants in the schools. And given this time of flat funding, it means we have to decrease our services by that $5 million.

That’s the bottom line.”

For the 2010-11 fiscal year, the district contributed $5 million to the pension program. That will

jump to more than $10 million in the 2011-12 biennium.

“We’ve seen increases before, but not in this order of magnitude,” Rexford said.

The city of Bend is expecting a $1 million decrease in property tax revenue from this biennium to the next. Its contribution to PERS is expected to increase by $1.4 million in the next biennium.

“It doesn’t help when you’re facing limitations on your revenues, with property taxes coming in lower and other revenues not growing,” said Sonia Andrews, the finance director for the city of Bend.

Andrews said the rate increase won’t result in any immediate layoffs but it can be difficult because “it’s something we can’t control.”

PORTLAND — Oregon and Washington have been given permission to resume removing or killing California sea lions at Bonneville Dam on the Columbia River, a federal agency said Friday.

The decision by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration came about six months after a federal appeals court struck down a similar permit aimed at reducing the number of threatened or endangered salmon eaten by the hungry marine mammals.

The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals stopped the practice last year.

NOAA Fisheries officials said they believe the agency has fixed flaws the court pointed out in the original permit issued three years ago.

Under that permit, the two states removed or killed 37 animals.

A report in Portland’s Orego-

nian says the California sea lion population is healthy, estimated at 238,000, while wild Columbia River spring chinook salmon are listed as endangered.

Mammals’ impact small, challengers say But Sharon Young of the Humane Society of the United States, which challenged the removal, said Friday the organization still argues the sea lions account for only a small fraction of the salmon killed while fishermen and other causes account for a much larger share.

“This is not a program that is going to do much of anything to help salmon recovery,” Young said.

The HSUS said it would study NOAA’s authorization letter and 42-page decision memo before deciding whether to challenge the practice again.

In Friday’s decision, NOAA

Regional Director William Stelle said new data suggest sea lions are eating nearly 13 percent of salmon at the dam in low-return years. That’s higher than earlier Corps of Engineers estimates. Stelle said a researcher last year found sea lion injuries on 29 percent of returning salmon.

Stelle also said the Marine Mammal Protection Act allows his agency to balance “the management of and conflict between two species.”

In a statement, Stelle said “a thorough analysis shows that a small number of California sea lions preying on salmon and steelhead are having a significant effect on the ability of fish stocks to recover.”

Robin Brown, marine mammal program manager for the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife, told The Oregonian his agency is prepared to capture and euthanize California sea lions this week.

County to tap reserves For the first time ever, Deschutes County will dip into a reserve fund to help offset costs.

The county does not anticipate any cuts to service.

For the fiscal year 2011-12, the county’s PERS expense is expected to hit $9.1 million, a 38 percent increase from the previous fiscal year. This will be the first year since the fund was created that the county will draw it down to cover pension rate increases.

“We would have had a much more difficult time balancing the budget (without the reserve fund),” said Deschutes County Finance Director and Treasurer Marty Wynne.

The city of Sisters will likely see a jump in its PERS rates, from $83,893 in 2010-11 to $132,827 in 2011-12.

Sisters City Manager Eileen Stein said the city will be able to absorb the increase. The city did cut two full-time positions, and another person works less than part time.

“We had some vacancies this year, and it allowed us to reduce those positions from the budget without laying anyone off,” Stein said.

Rexford said he’s not giving up. “I won’t give up hope until the end because this is so important for us,”he said. The session is scheduled to end by June 30.

PERS not all to blame

NOAA approves removal of sea lions at Bonneville Dam

Continued from B1 But, he pointed out, many aspects of the system can only be changed through union negotiations.

Plus, with the split 30-30 House and each committee co-chair needing to agree to hold a hearing, bills had a hard time making it on the agenda.

Rep. Mike Schaufler is the Democratic co-chair of the House Business and Labor Committee, which was charged with hearing PERS bills. He said he has a list of 30 or 40 bills that would change PERS. The list, he said, is accompanied by a note from legislative counsel saying the changes would leave the state open to lawsuits because they would be violating contracts.

“If someone works 20, 30 years under a contract, we should never go back and think about rewriting that contract after they have worked their service,” he said. “No logical reason to go back and rewrite it. It’s unfair.

It’s wrong. And not only that, it’s illegal.”

Conger, also on the business and labor committee, said the courts have “locked in” the Legislature. Conger’s bill is still being drafted, and would help school districts cut PERS-related costs.

Coming into the session, there was a lot of talk about the “6 percent pickup,” which refers to the fact that Oregon picks up a portion of the employee portion of PERS contributions, equaling 6 percent of payroll. Lawmakers attempted to address the pickup, but it looks likely the only way to change or remove it will be through contract negotiations.

IN MAY, 1961 …

The 118-yearold Heceta Head Lighthouse, south of Yachats on the Oregon coast, is about to embark on a $1.3 million renewal project.

Temporal anarchy causes ill-timed troubles in Bend 100 YEARS AGO For the week ending May 14, 1911 STEEL ARRIVES OPAL CITY — Yesterday eleven cars of steel for the Crooked River Bridge and several gangs of men, with outfit cars, passed through here for the end-of-rails close to the river. These were followed today by more cars loaded with bridge building equipment, and it is understood that practically all the material required in the big construction undertaking will be on hand in the course of the next two weeks.

All preliminary work on the bridge is completed, such as the concrete foundations and preparation for the reception and handling of the steel. The time required to finish the big structure is variously estimated from 60 to 90 days. These figures, however, may be materially lessened, as it is understood it is the intention of the builders to rush the work to the utmost, employing every bit of labor that can advantageously be used.

Yesterday the first shipment of freight for the Burns country to come in over the new Central Oregon line made its appearance at this place. The Jones Warehouse Company handled several tons of merchandise for G.I. Hembree, of Riley.

Last Friday occurred the opening of the Harriman Deschutes line to Madras. A circus, brought in over the new road, helped to enliven the opening celebration.

The road is now operating a regular daily service.

BUYS FOR RESORT S.N. Steele, of the BrongSteele Co. of Portland, real estate and financial agents, has bought through J.A. Eastes 160 acres of land two miles west of Harper and twenty miles south of Bend at the head of Spring River. Mr. Steele was here 10 days ago and on Sunday, May 7, went with an auto party to look over the property, owned by Joseph C. Smith of Bend.

While he states that he has not completed his plans, it is understood here that Mr. Steele will build a fine log hotel for a summer resort. For this purpose the site is ideal, being a natural park, free from stones and covered with a growth of giant pine trees.

In addition to this there are countless springs of pure cool water bubbling up out of the ground among the trees which, within a few hundred yards, flows together to form a roaring river.

Not far away are Lava Butte and the Cascades Mountain ranges, which are already well known for their scenic grandeur.

Bend, as the railway terminus, will be the entry point to this resort region.

75 YEARS AGO For the week ending May 14, 1936 COFFEE SHOP TO BE BUILT HERE Plans for the construction of a coffee shop and tavern on the west bank of the Deschutes River facing on Oregon Avenue were announced today by Miss Maren Gribskov and Miss Eleanor Bechen. The building will be occupied

by Miss Gribskov, manager of the O.I.C. which is now located in temporary quarters upstairs in the Cashman building at the corner of Oregon and Wall streets.

It is hoped the building will be completed by July 1.

The new building will be 100 feet long with a 45 foot front and will be of rustic construction.

The front dining room will open directly on Oregon Avenue and will be located in the southeast corner of the building. A large dining room will be located in the rear of the building overlooking the river. The room will

Y E S T E R D AY open on a terrace which will be constructed in such a way as to preserve the large pine tree on the rear of the lot. An apple tree which is located just inside the east line of the lot will be preserved on a terrace which will open on the front dining room.

The kitchen will be located in the center of the building with an outside entrance.

The rear dining room will be 40 by 25 feet and there will be a smaller private dining room adjoining. These rooms will have hardwood floors making them available for dancing. The north front of the building will be rented.

The building will be two stories high at the west end with two apartments on the second floor directly over the large dining room. The building will be heated by oil. Whitehouse and Church, Portland architects, are in charge of construction.

The O.I.C. cafeteria was opened in 1919 by Miss Gribskov and Martha Bechen Conklin.

Miss Gribskov has been the active head of the business since Mrs. Conklin’s marriage. Since March 15 this year the O.I.C. has been located in temporary quarters upstairs over the Silhouette shop at the corner of Oregon and Wall streets.

Service in the temporary location will be continued as usual while construction of the new building is under way. Breakfasts, luncheons and dinners are being served and the regular delicatessen service will be continued.

[Note to readers: This building is now known as The Pine Tavern.]

50 YEARS AGO For the week ending May 14, 1961 BEND TIME SITUATION SNARLED, SOME ON FAST TIME, SOME NOT What time is it?

This is the 64-dollar question in Bend today, where residents are spending much of their time consulting clocks and schedules.

The question of time has arisen because part of the city is on daylight time, and part on standard time. Rural areas in Central Oregon are on standard time, as are other cities in the area. However, future changes may bring the cities onto daylight time, also.

This condition of temporal anarchy began Friday when the Bend city commission approved moving city offices onto a summer time schedule.

Merchants followed suit. But the city schools can’t change times unless the school board, scheduled to meet Wednesday, approves the change. So two times prevail.

Most employers in Bend have shifted to daylight time. However, the Brooks-Scanlon mill, largest Bend employer, will continue on standard time until the city’s schools change time, as will The Bulletin and the local radio stations.

Downtown, most clocks read daylight time. But the Equitable chimes have been ringing on standard time, and will until they can be reset.

The Bend branch of the First National Bank intended to open on daylight time but its timelocked vaults were set to open on standard time, and the bank employes had to wait an hour until they opened. U.S. National Bank has still not changed, and bank manager John Stenkamp has not decided when it will.

The Deschutes National Forest continues on standard time. The Bend post office is on daylight time, but the mail schedules are on standard time, so boxholders

may arrive at the post office at 8 a.m. only to fine that their mail hasn’t arrived.

Officials at Pacific Trailways reported much confusion in scheduling. So far, apparently no one has missed a bus, but some passengers have arrived an hour early.

Most Bend business and social groups are meeting on daylight time, but not all, e.g., the Academy of Friendship, Women of the Moose, have a daylight time banquet scheduled for Tuesday, but The Royal Neighbors of America are meeting on standard time this evening.

Had enough? This reporter has a “Std” label posted on the face of his watch. He recommends the technique.

25 YEARS AGO For the week ending May 14, 1986 FULL-TIME MOMS LOVE ROLE IN LIFE Fifteen years ago it was rare to see an American mother leaving home to work, let alone hammering nails at a construction site or voting at a corporate board meeting.

Today, it’s getting hard to find an American mother at home with her kids.

The traditional family in which Dad works while Mom cares for the children is fading fast.

Only 15 percent of the nation’s 62 million families still fit the traditional mold that most of today’s parents grew up in and tuned in to on television programs such as “The Donna Reed Show” and “Leave It To Beaver.”

But as some women are discovering, the glamorous image of supermom fulfilling herself both at work and at home is also more ideal than reality.

A good percentage of mothers will stay in the work force because women are more educated, the feminist movement has redefined their roles, the marketplace needs them for its expanding service industries and families need bigger incomes.

In Oregon, 181,822 — or 36 percent — of the 494,719 married couples include a wife who does not work, according to 1980 figures from the census.

Jeanette Leerssen said she discovered how unusual she was in choosing to be a full-time mom when the neighbor kids started showing up at her house in Bend after school.

“There were 21 houses and 33 kids (on her block) and I was the only mother home”, she said.

“You know where the 33 kids came after school.”

Today, Leerssen lives in a house on 2 1/2 acres and her children are away at school all day.

But she and her husband Paul still do not want their kids coming home to a cold, empty house, even if it means doing without an extra car or a boat or a videocassette recorder.

“You have to be real practical about the fact you are not going to live up to the Joneses,” Leerssen said. “But you are not going to have the Joneses children either.”

Leerssen and other full-time moms in Central Oregon choose to get by on one income in a twoincome economy so they can keep a job that pays with quality of life rather than money. They shun a lingering social stigma that suggests they are somehow leading narrow, demeaning, unfulfilled lives as homemakers.

They trade the marketplace for motherhood, things for time, because they believe nothing is more important than raising their kids and nobody can do it better than they do.

Solar panel maker picks Portland over suburb The Associated Press PORTLAND — A solar panel manufacturer has decided to build a factory in Portland rather than suburban Wilsonville, saying it was decisive action rather than better terms that sealed the deal.

SoloPower Inc. had planned to build in the city south of Portland, but opponents of Wilsonville’s tax and public loan benefits were circulating petitions to put the deal on the ballot in September, the Oregonian newspaper reported.

Portland offered the California company the same benefits as Wilsonville, amounting to more than $40 million, with an enterprise-zone tax abatement of nearly $17 million on top. The Oregonian said, however, that two deductions will shave millions of dollars from the package’s face value of $58 million.

The agreement was announced Friday. Portland had earlier lost out to Wilsonville in the bidding to lure the manufac-

turer, but state development officials turned to the bigger city for a new offer after the uncertainty developed in the suburb.

The company wants to begin remodeling warehouse space this summer and begin producing thin-film solar panels early next year. It is considering sites in Portland’s Rivergate Industrial District.

The company said it hopes to create 481 jobs eventually, with an average salary of $51,000.

Historic lighthouse to be restored

By Lori Tobias The Oregonian

FLORENCE — The Heceta Head Lighthouse may capture the eye of more photographers than any other lighthouse on the Oregon coast.

There’s just something about its solitary setting in the midst of so much rugged terrain that seems to beckon all who pass by.

But as photographed as it may be, the 118-year-old tower isn’t winning any beauty contests. Its corbels are cracked, the metal rusted, its layers and layers of paint chipped.

And, as one historic preservationist put it, the poor thing can’t breathe.

That’s why the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department is about to embark on a $1.3 million do-over.

That’s the upside in this tale. The not-so-good news: The light is about to go out on this iconic tower, and it will stay out for some time.

Work will begin on Aug. 1, closing the entire area for one to two months. The trails, parking lot and oil house will reopen at about the end of September or possibly sooner.

The 56-foot lighthouse itself could be closed for up to two years.

“This project is a top-tobottom restoration, inside and out,” said Sue Licht, the Parks and Recreation Department’s preservation architect. “It will involve restoring all the metalwork, all the masonry, all the interior finishes, including the windows and doors.

The windows are going to go back in, and then the work-

“An awful lot of what I do is to undo a lot of the latest and greatest things people were trying on historical buildings in the ’60s and ’70s.”

— Sue Licht, Oregon Parks and Recreation District preservation architect room will be restored on the interior as well.”

The first task workers will undertake is to cover up the Fresnel lens. Made in Great Britain by the Chance Brothers, the lens is the only one of its kind on the Oregon coast and one of only two in the country. Most of the other Fresnel lenses on the coast come from France.

Money for the project is coming from the federal Transportation Department. It will kick in about $1.1 million, with the state’s share at about $217,000.

While the elements can be blamed for much of Heceta’s

poor shape, people and their good intentions are equally at fault. It seems when preservationists previously went in to remedy problems, they did more harm than good.

“I’ve been in preservation 25 years, and one of the things I learned is an awful lot of what I do is to undo a lot of the latest and greatest things people were trying on historical buildings in the ’60s and ’70s,” said Licht.

“One of the things you will see is up at the top there is a ring of stone. They decided those stones were either cracked or something was wrong up there. Too much water was getting in, so they took a material called Gunite, a type of spray-on cement, and sprayed around the stone so they disappeared. One of the things they didn’t anticipate was there was water constantly leaking in, and it trapped the water and accelerated deterioration of all the metal that was up there.”

The public will be able to follow the restoration work through exhibits in the oil house next to the lighthouse, and when work is complete, the parks department will host an unveiling of the gussied-up tower.

Henry Feffer, surgeon who treated Saddam Hussein and zoo’s gorilla

By Emma Brown The Washington Post

Henry Feffer, a prominent Washington spine surgeon whose patients included Saddam Hussein and Nikumba, a beloved National Zoo gorilla, died May 9 of congestive heart failure at his home in Bethesda, Md. He was 93.

A professor emeritus at George Washington University’s medical school, Feffer began practicing in Washington in the late 1940s and was among the first orthopedic surgeons in the country to specialize in treating back problems.

Until 1980, he was the city’s only spine surgeon, said Sam Wiesel, Feffer’s former colleague.

“If you had a complicated back problem in the Washington, D.C., metro area, you would come to Henry Feffer,” said Wiesel, now chairman of Georgetown University’s orthopedic surgery department.

Feffer was known as an expert

diagnostician, a jovial, athletic man who made a habit of getting to know patients beyond their diagnoses. He treated a long list of renowned political figures, said his son David Feffer, including labor leader George Meany and former CIA directors Allen Dulles and Richard Helms.

Feffer also helped bring relief to less-well-heeled patients. He chaired the medical advisory committee for the humanitarian aid organization CARE and spent many vacations during the 1960s and ’70s training doctors in countries such as Vietnam, Algeria and Afghanistan.

He saw such volunteerism as a method of diplomacy — a way, during the Cold War, to burnish the United States’ reputation.

“The American physician must transplant himself and help these peoples to develop the most from their own medical talents with what they have,” he wrote in 1962, in a call urging other doctors to volunteer.

In April 1977, the Carter White House asked Feffer to put his diplomatic skills to use in Iraq.

The president hoped to curry favor in Baghdad by responding to a request for help in treating the back problems of a senior government official.

Upon arriving in Iraq, Feffer discovered that the senior official was Baath Party leader and future Iraqi president Saddam Hussein. Then vice president, Saddam Hussein was experiencing what Feffer described in an unpublished essay as “uncomplicated back strain.”

A Soviet doctor had suggested surgery, and Saddam Hussein wanted a second opinion. Feffer and a team of doctors — including a British physician, a French rheumatologist, a Russian and a Yugoslav — saw the patient in his living room.

The doctors suggested exercises and told Saddam Hussein he could expect a full recovery in four to six weeks.

Audit Continued from B1 Under state law, the LEDS system is to be used only for criminal justice purposes, typically for investigations.

Misuse of the system has led to the decertification and even criminal conviction of police officers who have used it for personal reasons. The database includes criminal history, DMV and other records.

The specifics and source of the allegations involving Flaherty remain hazy.

What’s known is that on May 2, the state LEDS unit received a call from a District Attorney’s Office employee, who claimed that Flaherty had instructed a staff member to use the system improperly to run the license plate numbers of cars in the DA parking lot, according to LEDS Director Terry O’Connell.

LEDS staff sent the caller information outlining accepted uses, which explicitly do not include parking, according to documents obtained under Oregon Public Records Law. Within days, LEDS auditor Dan Malin received a similar call from Deschutes County Counsel Mark Pilliod, who said he’d received information that after one employee refused to run an inappropriate search, Flaherty asked another employee, who complied.

The names of those involved are whited out on a memo describing the call. O’Connell said the redactions were made to protect someone’s identity under the state’s whistle-blower statute.

He said that because no date, time or license plate number were given, the LEDS auditor had to make assumptions. Several computers in the DA’s office have access to LEDS. The auditor searched a one-week time frame around when he believed the parkingrelated search took place. He looked only at the terminal of the person who, Pilliod reported, was believed to have run the checks.

A search showed checks of four license plate numbers on April 27. But on Thursday, Flaherty gave the auditor an e-mail from his investigator, Jerry Stone, who said he ran the plates for a criminal assault investigation.

Thursday’s audit was tightly focused, taking only a couple of hours. O’Connell said his office made no effort to recontact Pilliod or the employee who initially contacted LEDS to seek details. He said his office does not believe there was an inappropriate use, and that the tipster who spoke to Pilliod may have had their facts wrong. He said the limited scope of the review was appropriate, adding, “Without someone saying, specifically, ‘I did it,’ what are we supposed to do?”

O’Connell said his office will consider the case closed unless someone brings new details forward. He said it was “absolutely” appropriate for Pilliod to alert his office about the concerns.

Pilliod and Flaherty have a history of tension, including legal disagreements last year and a criminal grand jury investigation Flaherty launched over release of personal information by Pilliod. Flaherty halted the investigation after Pilliod issued a letter of regret.

Pilliod said his complaint was not personal. He said he frequently receives calls from county employees with concerns or legal questions. He said he was satisfied with the outcome of the investigation, saying his responsibility was only to pass along concerns.

ing to expectations, he said.

“You generate more kilowatt hours the more flow goes in,” he said.

From January through April, the facility has produced about 1 million kilowatt hours, Johnson said, and May should bring even more as the weather warms up and farmers need more water for their fields, drawing more water through the power plant. Central Oregon Irrigation District is also interested in adding more hydropower plants along its canals.

Kate Ramsayer can be reached at 541-617-7811 or kramsayer@bendbulletin.com.

He said the LEDS auditor told him that the initial call concerned Flaherty allegedly wanting to run a check on a car parked in his personal space.

As for the second LEDS inquiry, O’Connell said his office is sending Flaherty a letter asking him to justify a LEDS check run on Michael Romano.

Romano, a lawyer who specializes in drunken-driving cases, said he has no idea why someone would run a check on him. But he did subpoena one of Flaherty’s newly hired deputies to testify earlier this year – which is “pretty unusual,” he said. He wanted

to ask the prosecutor to explain what Romano felt was an overly harsh and vindictive plea offer.

Romano said he also complained to Flaherty about the prosecutor, saying the prosecutor swore at him.

Gordon worked for the Telephone Company and they moved from Portland to Roseburg after the birth of their son Robert (Bob), where they lived until 1956. Their son William (Bill) was born in Roseburg. They were transferred to Eugene in 1956 where Ruth worked for School District 4J for many years.

Ruth had the spirit of a pioneer and explorer and she loved the outdoors. The family would spend many weeks each summer camping and fishing and hunting at the coast or in Central Oregon. She especially loved Central Oregon and eventually they purchased a small cabin in La Pine and moved there after Gordon’s retirement from the Telephone Company in 1975.

She worked for the La Pine School District and was very active in the Lions Club and other organizations. She loved the La Pine and Bend area where she had many friends.

She missed them a great deal when her health forced her to move back to Portland a few years after Gordon’s death.

She is survived by her two sons, Bob in Gresham and Bill in the Florence area, 5 grandchildren and 7 great grandchildren.

Ruth lived a long and full life for which we are grateful.

Stranded man starved, froze to death, autopsy shows The Associated Press PORTLAND — Authorities in Oregon say hypothermia and starvation caused the death of a man whose body was found months after his truck got stuck in heavy snow.

Linn County Sheriff Tim Mueller says an autopsy was conducted Friday on Jerry McDonald’s body, which was found Thursday in Jerry William his pickup. McDonald It was on a dirt road four miles from Marion Forks, in the Cascade Range foothills.

Authorities say they found a calendar marked with McDonald’s notes and that it showed he became stranded on Feb. 14.

On March 16, he noted: “No Fo,” indicating he had run out of food.

The last entry was on April 15.

Mueller says McDonald did not have a cell phone or a compass.

O B Austrian climber dies after falling from hill PORTLAND — Authorities say a climber has fallen 50 feet from a Portland hill and died.

He was one of two Austrian men climbing Saturday on Rocky Butte, an extinct volcano rising about 600 feet above northeast Portland.

His name was not immediately released. A fire department spokesman said it’s not clear what went wrong.

Lt. Damon Simmons said the men were on the east side of the hill, where quarrying decades ago left sheer faces and dozens of climbing routes of varying difficulty. Simmons said the man fell from a point below a ledge where some of his equipment was found.

He said the Austrians were experienced and with two other climbers who were not on the face at the time.

Disabled woman is theft target at ATM OAK GROVE — Clackamas County sheriff’s officers are looking for two men who robbed a disabled Oregon woman at a grocery store ATM in late April.

Detective Jim Strovink said

the 70-year-old Oak Grove woman was sitting in a motorized shopping cart near the ATM inside the store. She had $100 for a cash deposit stacked on a table next to her as she filled out her deposit slip. Renee Peterson says a man carrying a sack of dog food approached on her left side and asked if she thought the food would be good for his pit bull. She gave him a brief reply and turned around to see her $100 was gone.

The detective said Friday that store surveillance video showed two men pulled off the theft — one who distracted Peterson with the question and the other who grabbed the money.

She says Chase bank has reimbursed the money.

Blooming Oregon Exploring botanical gardens of the Willamette Valley

By John Gottberg Anderson • For The Bulletin

Last Monday, The Bulletin paid a visit to the choir room at Bend High School, where a group of students ages 16 to 18 were practicing for “Cat’s-Paw,” by William Mastrosimone, opening Friday at Greenwood Playhouse in Bend.

It’s the second production by the teen-run Rêver Theatre Company, which launched one year ago with “The Laramie Project.”

The group was started by Keenan Molner and Jessica Adler, the latter now a freshman at Sarah Lawrence College.

After Adler attended a summer theater camp in 2009, she returned intent on staging a production of “The Laramie Project,” recalls Molner, a 17-year-old senior at Bend High. The production ran for five successful performances at 2nd Street Theater in Bend.

“We were like, ‘Hey, we didn’t go into debt. Let’s use this money and do another production,” Molner says.

Enter “Cat’s-Paw,” which is being directed by Maddie Dunkelberg, 18, a senior at Summit High School, who says she agreed despite finding directing a “scary” prospect.

Have you attended a TED event?

An effort is under way to bring a one-day conference to Bend devoted to celebrating great ideas, but it needs a little help.

A group of Central Oregonians wants to put on a TEDx conference. TED is a nonprofit organization that is devoted to spreading great ideas. At two annual conferences, the organization brings together the world’s most fascinating thinkers and doers and challenges them to give the talk of their lives in 18 minutes or less. The goal is to share ideas like seeds, hoping their planting spreads to good deeds in the world.

A TEDx conference is a small, local version of the annual conferences. Organizers here want to put one on, but first must find an area resident who within the last nine years has attended a national TED event.

Anyone who has participated in a TED event is asked to contact Jim Schell at the e-mail address below.

School reunion tricky for 2 fighting friends

‘Too Big to Fail’ recreates crisis

By Luaine Lee

Paul Giamatti plays Ben Bernanke, chairman of the Federal Reserve, in HBO’s “Too Big to Fail” premiering May 23.

McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Dear Abby: “Lynn” and I were friends since we were teenagers.

We are now in our late 40s. We had a successful business together, but I decided to leave it to pursue my dreams. She didn’t understand, and our relationship was the casualty. We didn’t speak for two years. I attempted a reconciliation, but it failed. We’re both bitter regarding the settlement of the business, and I’m not sure it can ever be resolved.

There is a high school reunion coming up and I’m not sure how to handle it. Sitting down and talking with her isn’t an option.

She’s not reasonable, and she’s prone to sudden outbursts of anger. Can you help?

— Formerly Friendly Dear Formerly Friendly: Yes, when you attend the reunion, avoid her as much as possible.

But if you can’t, keep any conversation civil, perfunctory, brief — and move away.

Dear Abby: My wealthy brother-in-law and his entire family didn’t give my daughter a graduation gift. And even though they attended my son’s wedding, none of them gave him a wedding gift, either. We have attended the graduations and weddings of all their children and have been generous. We know the right thing is to say nothing, but it’s hard to understand and remain quiet. What do you think?

— Giftless Family in Grand Rapids Dear Giftless Family: If your inlaws attended both events, they should have given something.

They may be cheap, stingy or so newly rich that they haven’t learned the basic rules of etiquette. Or, they may have had financial reversals you are unaware of. You are correct that the “right” thing to do is to say nothing, so resist the temptation to call them on it. And in dealing with them in the future, expect nothing and you won’t be disappointed.

Dear Abby: My 17-year-old

DEAR ABBY daughter, “Kelly,” tried to commit suicide. She was admitted to a hospital and started on an antidepressant. Last night, when I was walking across the parking lot to the ward, I met her psychiatrist. When I asked how Kelly was doing, he said she’s agitated, not sleeping and he was starting her on medication that night.

When he mentioned the dose, I told him my daughter had been given half that amount previously and didn’t wake up for 24 hours. I said I thought he should give her less or change the medication. He said he’d change it, went back inside and I followed.

I’m glad I ran into him, but now I wonder what would have happened if I hadn’t. What are the rules about medication being given to adolescents? Aren’t the parents supposed to give consent? What can I do to prevent this from happening again?

— Vigilant Mom in Colorado Dear Vigilant Mom: Because your daughter is under 18, your consent is needed for treatment.

Good care is both patient- and family-focused. You have a right to know what’s going on in your daughter’s treatment and to make sure her doctor has enough information to do an effective job.

It’s perfectly all right to advocate for your child.

PASADENA, Calif. — You might not think that the financial crisis three years ago would be fodder for stimulating drama. But some TV brokers are speculating that you’re wrong.

On May 23 HBO is offering “Too Big to Fail,” the tale of what was happening behind the scenes as banks folded, industry staggered and the housing market crumbled.

Based on the book by Andrew Ross Sorkin, the film is directed by Curtis Hanson (“L. A. Confidential”) with a roster of heavyhitting stars like James Wood, William Hurt, Topher Grace, Tony Shalhoub and Matthew Modine.

“I think that this story and this particular film and the book was really an opportunity to try to take the public inside the room so they could see what happened, so they could actually see the decisions that were made and what the opportunities were and the choices were that they actually had,” says Sorkin.

“In hindsight, everything looks black-and-white. But with 20/20 hindsight, it’s different. When you’re actually there, the choices were very different. And I think that this particular project really puts a focus on that. You get to see really what we were up against and how this was perhaps the most catastrophic thing that had happened in our economy since the Great Depression and that we were really on the edge. People don’t really appreciate often how close to the edge we really were,” he says.

Hurt portrays Henry Paulson, secretary of the Treasury and former chairman and CEO of Goldman Sachs. “I got to play a guy who crosses the line from the private sector to the public sector,” he says.

“And they’re different jobs.

You do different things in different contexts. So that was one of the most interesting parts for me, is Paulson who is a street fighter ... a guy who is not used to hearing ‘no’ in the street, to a guy who is working now for the American people. And what do you do in relationship to that responsibility?”

Hurt spent considerable time with Paulson. “He was very generous with his time, for a lot

of reasons. So that was utterly fascinating for me. And he was open, I think. So that was a thrill.

And to be able to ask some very pointed questions and get some very direct answers about those questions was, this is a sideline, but it was thrilling, just wonderful for me.”

Usually Hurt avoids portraying real people. “But what made this project so fascinating and imperative to me was that the events affect the life of everybody on the planet and will continue to. So that raised the level of interest and the applicability of the subject to an acceptable artistic level.”

The idea, says Hanson, was to depict the core of the character.

“We didn’t want to do impersonations. We wanted the actors, in their performance, to try and capture the essence of the person they were playing and tap into it with the essence of themselves.

But we did what we could to help them resemble the person. So, for example, Paul (Giamatti) has a white beard on, and his head is shaved like Ben Bernanke’s.

Matthew Modine is wearing a hairpiece to look more like John Thain. So we did things like that.

And William ended up with the haircut he’s got.”

Do it for Them...

After years of enjoying the sun, it may have taken it’s toll on your skin.

Early detection is key...

Lehrer to step down from anchor post at PBS’ ‘NewsHour’

By Melissa Maerz Los Angeles Times

NEW YORK — After 36 years as the anchor of “NewsHour” on PBS, Jim Lehrer will step down from his post on June 6, PBS announced Thursday.

He will continue to appear on many Friday evenings to moderate the program’s weekly news analysis segment, which features a panel of journalists.

In a statement, Lehrer said he maintained “complete confidence” in the current “NewsHour” team to continue producing quality programming in his absence. “I have been laboring in the glories of daily journalism for 52 years … 36 of them here at the NewsHour and its earlier incarnations … and there comes a time to step aside from the daily process, and that time has arrived,” he said.

Many viewers know Lehrer, 76, best for his role in the last six presidential elections, where he served as a moderator for 11 of the nationally televised debates among the candidates, including the one between Sens. Barack Obama and John McCain in 2008.

“NewsHour” debuted in 1975 as “The Robert MacNeil Report,” featuring Lehrer as a Washington correspondent who developed the show with Robert MacNeil. One year later, it was renamed “The MacNeil/Lehrer Report,” then in 1995 when MacNeil

left, it became “The NewsHour With Jim Lehrer.” During Lehrer’s tenure on the show, it won more than 30 Jim Lehrer awards for journalistic excellence. Last month, Lehrer was honored with a career achievement award by the National Press Club.

“Amid the cacophony of a sometimes shrill media landscape, he has remained the true voice of reason, balance and fairness,” the club’s president, Mark Hamrick, said of Lehrer.

In response to Lehrer’s announcement, Robert MacNeil said, “It is the most constructive and graceful exit strategy I have ever seen for someone holding a coveted and senior position in today’s media.

“It guarantees a continued place in today’s bewildering media spectrum for a program that will stay devoted to serious journalism.”

The entrance to Lan Su Yuan, Portland’s classical Chinese garden, belies an inner-city oasis of beauty and serenity. Built in 1999 and 2000 by artisans from Suzhou, China, the “Garden of the Awakening Orchid” has a two-story teahouse at its center. well-known amateur botanist credited with discovering two genera and 11 species of native plants during hikes in the Pacific Northwest wilderness.

The garden places its emphasis (though not an exclusive one) on native Northwest plants, with more than 2,000 species represented.

Photos by John Gottberg Anderson / For The Bulletin

The Conifer Garden, a highlight of the Oregon Garden, boasts one of the largest collections of dwarf and miniature conifers in the United States. Alaskan weeping cypress, at left of photo, are among the most distinctive species of the garden, which is scheduled for expansion.

Gardens Continued from C1 In its centennial year, it was named the “best festival in the world” by the International Festivals and Events Association. The 2011 festival is scheduled May 27 to June 19, with its signature Grand Floral Parade on June 11.

It comes as no surprise that Portland should be the home of the International Rose Test Garden. Established in 1917, the 4½acre Washington Park garden is the oldest test garden in the United States, and boasts more than 7,000 bushes of 550 varieties.

They include the orange-andgold “Strike It Rich” hybrid, honored with a gold medal in 2010, and the vigorous, creamy-pink “Dick Clark” rose, a 2011 award winner.

When I visited recently, the roses were not yet in bloom. I was assured that the garden would be a riot of blooms by the first of June, continuing into October. Gardeners were anticipating dainty miniature blossoms as small as a half-inch in diameter, and flourishing giants as large as eight inches across.

One of the highlights of the Rose Test Garden is the view of snow-covered Mount Hood rising beyond Portland’s downtown skyline. On haze-free June days when the garden is in full blossom, it’s a hard panorama to beat. Best of all, there is no admission charge.

The International Rose Test Garden lies along the lower slopes of lush Washington Park, just beneath its tennis courts.

The adjacent Rose Garden Store sells all manner of rose-themed merchandise, from silk flowers to rose-patterned tea sets. Proceeds from sales benefit both the gardens and Portland Parks and Recreation youth programs.

5½ ridge-top acres, it has five component gardens focused around a ceremonial tea house, a “chashitsu.”

A traditional Zen garden, its white sand carefully raked, offers perspective on an elegant pavilion that frames Mount Hood to the east. The Natural Garden, rich in moss and maples, provides stark contrast to the Dry Landscape Garden. The tranquil Strolling Pond Garden, with its colorful koi fish, is a favored meditation spot; paths wind past cherry trees and azalea plants, their colors giving way to flamboyant irises in summer, and to lace-leaf maples, their leaves glowing orange and red, in fall.

Adult admission is $9.50. Guided tours are offered three times daily — at 10:45 a.m., 1 and 2:30 p.m. — for no additional charge.

There’s a fine little garden shop that stocks books on such topics as “ikebana,” the art of Japanese flower arranging, and traditional tea ceremonies.

The ethnic counterpoint to the Japanese Garden is Lan Su Yuan, Portland’s classical Chinese garden, in the heart of the city’s Chinatown. “The Garden of the Awakening Orchid” was built in 1999 and 2000, through a partnership between Portland and its Chinese sister city. As Suzhou is well-known for its compact, intricate urban gardens, it sent designers and artisans to Oregon to build an authentic Ming Dynasty garden, occupying an entire city block.

Ringed by tall buildings, the garden is an inner-city oasis of

beauty and serenity. Walkways lead through keyhole-like portals, into quiet courtyards and pavilions with such poetic names as “Painted Boat in Misty Rain” and “Celestial House of Permeating Fragrance.” The visitor’s perspective is constantly changing, dictated by views through windows, doors and elaborate gingko-wood lattice screens.

From a two-story teahouse called the Tower of Cosmic Reflections, a garden panorama takes in 500 tons of imported limestone, meticulously arranged to resemble small mountains. Waterfalls tumble through rocks and stunted pines into Zither Lake, whose zigzag bridge leads to a pavilion that frames the full moon. All of the garden’s nine buildings carry the Chinese symbols for health, wealth, long life, virtue and happiness, baked into their roof tiles.

Adult admission is $8.50 and includes 45-minute public tours offered several times daily, which frequently end at the teahouse, where a menu of various teas and light Chinese foods is offered. Among many wonderful books for sale in the Garden Shop is “Listen to the Fragrance,” an interpretation of the design philosophy behind Chinese gardens.

Suburban Portland I found time to visit three additional botanical gardens, all of them on the south side of Portland, in a single day.

Across 28th Avenue from Reed

Asian gardens Portland boasts many other fine botanical displays. One of them, the Portland Japanese Garden, is located a short uphill walk from the Rose Garden in Washington Park.

Built in 1963, this garden is so remarkable that on its 25th anniversary, Japanese ambassador Nobuo Matsunaga pronounced it the most beautiful and authentic Japanese garden outside of Japan, according to “Horticulture” magazine. Flowing across

A visitor to the Elk Rock Garden of the Bishop’s Close finds a quiet place to read among the flowering shrubs and trees. The 13acre estate was built overlooking the Willamette River in 1914 and developed over many decades by owner Peter Kerr.

College, in Portland’s Woodstock neighborhood, is the wonderful Crystal Springs Rhododendron Garden. My mid-spring visit put me in this gorgeous spot in the heart of its most colorful season, when more than 2,500 rhododendrons and azaleas blossom across the 9½-acre grounds.

Visitors pay just $3 to walk through the entrance gate and down a ramp or a set of steps to a curving bridge, which crosses a waterfall-fed stream. Just beyond is a good-size lake, yearround home to colonies of waterfowl and other birds. Ninety-four species have been seen here, according to garden literature. Japanese maples, sourwood trees, fothergillas and many other plants add year-round color.

Further southeast, the Leach Botanical Garden covers 15 acres on both sides of Johnson Creek.

From previous page Overlooking the Willamette River in the exclusive south-end Dunthorpe neighborhood, the Elk Rock Garden of the Bishop’s Close surrounds the headquarters of the Episcopal Diocese of Oregon. The 13-acre estate was built in 1914 by Peter Kerr, a Scottish-born grain merchant who owned the property facing Mount Hood, near a small mid-river island known as Elk Rock.

An ardent gardener, Kerr recruited New York landscape architect John Olmsted to lay out the property, and then set out to create his personal garden. Today it appears much as it did in 1957, when Kerr died at age 95 and his daughters donated it to the church.

Around the property are 35 flowering magnolia trees; numerous varieties of witch hazel; wisteria, mulberry, and numerous other native and rare plants. Trees include ancient gingko and dawn redwood, as well as giant sequoia, maple, birch, cypress, cedar, fir, yew, sassafras and madrone.

vice spa, a lounge with nightly music, and the bi-level Garden View Restaurant, which serves three meals daily. During my dinner I watched a family of deer grazing on the lawn that slopes down from the hotel to the main gardens. I enjoyed a meal of seared black cod, a special on the often-changing menu of Northwest cuisine.

One of the best things about staying in the Oregon Garden Resort is that overnight guests can walk into the garden at any time — through a back gate. That means the $10 main-gate admission fee is waived, and the usual 9 a.m.-to-6 p.m. entry hours are ignored.

To visit the Gordon House on the other side of the garden, however, special arrangements are required. Tours of 45 minutes, by reservation, begin hourly from noon to 4 p.m., Thursday to Monday. At $10, they are a bargain.

The Gordon House is a classic example of the architect’s horizontal style, with 12-foot, floor-to-ceiling living-room windows that bring the outside environment indoors.

This was one of Frank Lloyd Wright’s final opuses. Completed in 1963, four years after his death, it was constructed for a Wilsonville farm couple, Evelyn and Conrad Gordon, on a plot near the Willamette River. But when the 2001 owners of the house announced plans to raze the building, the Frank Lloyd Wright Conservancy moved it 21 miles to its current site. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places three years later.

The study is believed to be the first to assess the impact of form in interior environments, according to Marilyn Read, associate professor at OSU and chairwoman of Dazkir’s thesis committee.

Despite rapid rise of e-books, rare books aren’t endangered

By Alejandro Lopez de Haro Columbia News Service

NEW YORK — While the digital age has been kind to readers, offering e-books, online shopping and instant access, many retailers have not fared as well. When Borders filed for bankruptcy in February, it announced it would close one-third of its stores and shift focus to e-books and nonbook products. Other booksellers continue to modify and tweak their strategies to cope with the growth of digital options.

But in one niche of the literary marketplace, print still rules — and always will. Rare book dealers and experts don’t necessarily agree about how the digital future will affect their business, but few say they are threatened by it — especially since the price of rare books is usually based on their availability.

“The fact that actual books are going to become more scarce really helps us doesn’t it?” says Kim Herzinger, a retired literature professor and owner of the 7-year-old Left Bank books in New York City.

“Books are going to be seen more and more as pretty and special objects,” Herzinger says. “No one is going to say, ‘I want to put my iPad on the shelf so that people can see what nice books I have.’”

Digital books may sell at a discount, but dealers expect that physical first editions of established collectibles will continue to appreciate. Scarce classics like a first edition of Ray Bradbury’s “Fahrenheit 451” already fetch thousands of dollars. A copy of the first folio edition of Shakespeare plays sold for more than $5 million in 2006.

“It is a completely different market,” says Michael DiRug-

Play Continued from C1 Molner and Dunkelberg say they chose “Cat’s-Paw,” which deals with an eco-terrorist and kidnapper named Victor (played by Jake Thompson, a 17-year-old Bend High student) who’s obsessed with a clean water supply. In the play, Victor invites Jessica Lyons, a TV reporter played by Bailey Olmstead, to interview him; tensions mount between the two as her visit turns into a cat-and-mouse game with Victor.

Rounding out the cast are Mountain View High School senior Parker Daines, 18, who plays Mr. Darling, the kidnap victim, and Jacqui Adler, 16 (sister of

Thinkstock

giero, co-owner of the Manhattan Rare Book Co. in New York City. “The idea is that you want a piece of history. The first edition is the closest you get to the birth of a specific idea, cultural or scientific.”

While smaller print runs may lead to the kind of scarcity that increases a rare book’s value, most dealers advise against buying up contemporary first editions in hopes of scoring a future winner.

“It is very risky,” says Michael Thompson, founder of Michael Thompson Rare Books in Los Angeles. “The odds are not on your side.”

Tell that to someone lucky enough to have bought — and kept — a hardcover first edition of “Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone,” by J.K. Rowling, published in the U.K. with a firstprint run of only 500 copies. The first editions in the U.K. have sold for around $25,000, according to the rare booksellers consulted. (The book was later later published in the United States as “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone.”)

The Harry Potter books are a unique example. “The perfect storm of what makes a rare modern book is an unknown author’s first book gets a small print run,

cofounder Jessica Adler), who plays Cathy, Victor’s cohort in his eco-crimes.

“It explores how far is too far,” says Dunkelberg. “We’re definitely not endorsing (eco-terrorism) at all.”

“It’s smart, it’s well-written and it’s suspenseful,” adds Molner.

According to stage manager Randy Brooks, a 17-year-old Summit High junior, “It’s quite an undertaking for a group of teens.”

Most of the adults in their lives are duly impressed with the play and the sobering matters it explores.

“Once they get past the initial shock that we’re doing the show all on our own, as students,” says Brooks, “then they hear about the subject matter of the

and then it kind of takes off,” says DiRuggiero.

Still, predicting such trends is difficult — and dealers warn that some popular bestsellers, like “The Da Vinci Code,” by Dan Brown, initially seem like good investments but then fail to maintain their value.

“People were paying through the nose for first editions of that book,” says Amir Naghib, owner of Captain Ahab’s Rare Books in Miami. Unsigned first editions of “The Da Vinci Code” were valued between $200 and $400 in the mid-2000s, says Naghib. Signed copies sold then for as much as $5,000, he adds.

Less than a decade later, Naghib says he has seen first editions of the book selling on eBay for around $30.

It’s not only first editions that have value to collectors. A later edition might sometimes be worth more if it offers something in great demand, such as unique inscription by the author, says Susan Benne, executive director of the Antiquarian Booksellers Association of America.

Take “No Country for Old Men,” a best seller by Cormac McCarthy that was subsequently made into a film. Naghib in Miami offers an unsigned first edition of the book for $125 and a later edition priced at $650. The difference? The later edition is signed by Josh Brolin and Javier Bardem, the lead actors in the film, which won the 2008 Academy Award for best picture.

That award plus Bardem’s Oscar for his performance in the film add a uniqueness to the later copy that supersedes the price of the first edition, says Naghib.

And that’s something you can’t get in the Kindle edition.

play and they’re like, ‘So you’re doing a play about that, and you’re all teenagers doing this?’

I think that’s really surprising to people.”

The group plans a third production, “Necessary Targets,” to run July 14-17 at Greenwood Playhouse.

The cast of that production includes Dunkelberg and Olmstead, among others.

Though Molner and Dunkelberg are set to graduate this year, Brooks would like to keep Rêver Theatre Company alive.

“If it does keep going, I would love to be a part of it next year,” he says.

Some of you might feel the inverse — that you need to do more. There will be a juggling of different priorities. Guilt (not giving enough) and resentment (giving too much) could become strong issues. Only you can juggle and decide what level is right for you. If you are single, you will want to relate actively, and you might have several opportunities to do just that. If you are attached, the two of you could be juggling the very basis of your relationship.

SCORPIO can be challenging.

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 Togetherness is your theme as you learn to deal with a significant difference of opinion.

You feel good and unusually creative. Your fiery temperament could be an obstacle, should you unleash it! Discipline counts.

Tonight: Indulge a partner.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH Share your free time with not just a partner but also with friends and family. You might want to invite others over for a get-together, depending on what you like to do. If you note your temperature rising, step back.

You might ruin an otherwise good time. Tonight: All smiles.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

HHH Pace yourself carefully, as you are tired and withdrawn.

Your friends simply want to be with you. Say “no” if you are too tired to enjoy anyone. Honor your needs. If you are suppressing feelings, you could be more tired than usual. Tonight: Early to bed.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH How you live and the choices you make really is your business, and only yours. Many people will have their own opinions.

Get together with friends; go off and play golf, softball or any other fun physical activity. Tonight: Carry on as if there is no tomorrow.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Listen to your thoughts and what you want. Spend time with family or close to home. You need extra R and R. Recognize your limits rather than test them. The end result could be far different and a lot better. Tonight: Happy at home.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHHH Chat and ask questions in an easy, relaxing tone. News from someone at a distance could disrupt your plans. A partner or loved one comes up with many suggestions that could work.

Tonight: Hang out with your friends.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Indulge others. Everyone likes to be treated sometimes.

Your happy style and positive way help make everyone feel at home. Nevertheless, someone complains or appears to have a grievance. Tonight: Order in.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHHH You wake up feeling

as if you have a new lease on life. Confusion surrounds a loved one or several people. You might veer in a new direction when you least expect it. Different points of view are natural.

Don’t let an argument develop.

Tonight: Relish the moment.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HH Much is going on behind the scenes. Realize what is occurring right in front of your very eyes.

Internalize what you are seeing and decide what you want to do.

Go off to the movies. Tonight: Choose something relaxing.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHHH Join friends. You might find someone quite distracted or withdrawn. Perhaps this person needs and wants more attention from you. A child or loved one could feel neglected as well. Share your day more openly. Tonight: You create fun wherever you go.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHH Someone you respect and care about could have very different ideas from you. It might be causing you to feel pressured. Certainly you have a lot to consider, but for now, just enjoy the company of this person. Tonight: Do some hard thinking.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHHH You could open up to new possibilities without even trying. You are up for adventure and trying something very different.

Be spontaneous and imaginative.

Let everything else fall into place.

Tonight: Follow the music. © 2010 by King Features Syndicate

Antique tunes streamed for free on ‘National Jukebox’ Library of Congress teams with Sony to offer more than 10,000 recordings

Matthew Barton, curator of Recorded Sound at the Library of Congress, holds a Vitaphone disc in Culpeper, Va. The Packard Campus for Audio-Visual Conservation opened in 2007 and is a repository for millions of items of cultural history, including original films, audio recording, TV shows and other items.

By Randy Lewis Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — The Library of Congress flipped a switch that will open a large chunk of the national archive of more than 3 million music and spoken-word recordings archive public streaming as part of a new National Jukebox project, a joint venture between the library and Sony Music that will give free access to thousands of Sony-controlled recordings long out of circulation because of commercial or copyright issues.

Some of the 10,000 titles streamable at the new National Jukebox website have been unavailable for more than 100 years, a significant chunk of them because of complex laws controlling ownership of sound recordings, which did not become subject to federal copyright laws until 1972.

Among the highlights are vintage performances by celebrated classical musicians, including Enrico Caruso and Fritz Kreisler; the first blues recording, “Livery Stable Blues,” made in 1917 by the Original Dixieland Jazz Band; a comedy skit by the Vaudeville team of Gallagher and Shean; speeches of President Teddy Roosevelt; piano performances by jazz-ragtime pioneer Eubie Blake; and music of the John Philip Sousa Band conducted by its namesake.

“This really blows the top off of a lot of stuff, doesn’t it?” said Chris Sampson, associate dean of the University of Southern California’s Thornton School of Music. “There are so many angles from the academic perspective of how this would be a resource. Just in my small corner of the universe of teaching songwriting, the ability to be able to go to the source so students can see the tradition of American music and American songwriting, to see this lineage and to be able to draw upon it is going to be enormous. … To me that’s just gold.”

Sony, which claims to control more historical recordings than any other of the three existing major label groups — EMI, Warner and Universal music groups — has made available all pre-1925 acoustic recordings originally made for the Victor

Talking Machine Co., the vast majority of which are not now in circulation. The next phase of the project, announced last week at the Library of Congress’ offices in Washington, D.C., will add early discs made for Columbia Records, which also is under the Sony umbrella. The project offers no direct financial gain to Sony, although the company will retain the rights for the commercial release of anything newly coming available.

“We’re going to release this site with more than 10,000 sides,” said Gene DeAnna, head of the library’s recorded sound section. “For this project, we’ve had to pull every copy of our Victor acoustic recordings, examine them all and select what we thought was the best and send it upstairs for possible digitization.” DeAnna said he estimates there are roughly an equal number of Columbia discs that project officials expect to add to the Jukebox this year.

tional Jukebox creates a breakout hit recorded in 1909, DeAnna said, “We have an agreement with Sony that if anything is reissued for the commercial market, we’ll take them down” from streaming on the Jukebox site.

Library of Congress staff and guest programmers will create playlists by genre, time period, artist and other themes, and members of the public will be able to submit their own playlists for consideration for publication on the Jukebox website.

Users also will be able to share their playlists and embed the audio player on social media websites such as Facebook and MySpace.

The collaboration between Sony and the Library of Congress is intended to keep any cost to taxpayers to a minimum and to make the streaming files available quickly. In return, Sony will receive data on which recordings are streamed most frequently to help determine which may have commercial potential.

two years in the making, is a digital discography of every Sonyowned acoustic 78-rpm recording, organized in a searchable database, prepared at University of California Santa Barbara; each entry contains extensive information ranging from personnel on each recording, the date and locations they were made down to which take from the recording session is on each disc.

The library’s files also will be the source for thousands of pages of documents and images of original labels, artist biographies and other text and photographic material.

Of the recordings from the late 19th and early 20th century that are now streamable, “only the Caruso stuff is currently available,” DeAnna said.

“The only artist whose work has remained in print since it was recorded is Caruso,” added Matthew Barton, the library’s curator of recorded sound.

“You’ve always been able to get Caruso, in whatever the current formats were. But he wasn’t the only star of the day, he wasn’t the only opera singer recording — but he’s the only one that has been consistently available from the rights holder.”

Web of copyright laws That speaks to copyright issues that have kept thousands of recordings off the market even

when there have been small labels that would be interested in issuing them to the niche audiences they appeal to.

Because sound recordings didn’t get singled out for federal copyright law protection until 1972, ownership of pre-1972 recordings is complicated by an often impossible-to-unravel web of state or common laws governing them.

A proposal is making its way through Congress to bring earlier recordings under the 1972 law to enhance public access and ensure that at some point the recordings go into the public domain.

As the law stands, many recordings dating as far back as 1890 will not enter the public domain before 2067, 177 years after they were made.

“It’s extremely exciting if even a corner of this starts to break the dam and get these things beyond the walls of Library of Congress,” USC’s Sampson said.

Library and Sony officials hope the streaming access will create new audiences for the old recordings. In the event the Na-

The Jukebox Project also will include a digitized version of the Victor Book of the Opera, a guide the Victor label published with opera plot outlines, illustrations and other aids to expand opera fans’ knowledge and appreciation, along with offerings of their own performances of the works described.

“We’ve scanned the whole book and you can page turn through it, and when you roll the cursor over the a particular recording, you can play that selection,” DeAnna said.

“For instance, there’s the famous quartet in (Verdi’s) ‘Rigoletto.’ The catalog lists 11 versions, and you can compare Caruso’s to (Irish tenor) John McCormack’s, or the Six Brown Brothers’ saxophone sextet version. There’s also an accordion version.

“You really get the sense there wasn’t such a distinction between high-brow and low-brow; opera was really part of popular entertainment then,” DeAnna said.

“Can you imagine Lady Gaga singing (Mozart’s) ‘Queen of the Night’ on her next CD?”

MAJOR LEAGUE SOCCER Timbers, Sounders play to draw SEATTLE — The opening match of the much-anticipated Major League Soccer rivalry between the Portland Timbers and the Seattle Sounders ended in a 1-1 draw Saturday night.

Alvaro Fernandez scored early in the second half for the Sounders, and the Timbers answered with Futty Danso’s header 13 minutes later.

Fittingly for the Pacific Northwest, the nationally televised match was played in pouring rain. The announced crowd was 36,593, a record for an MLS game at Qwest Field.

It was the first match of the Cascadia Cup competition between Portland, Seattle and the Vancouver Whitecaps. Unique because it was created by fans, the award takes on greater significance this season now that all three teams are part of MLS. Seattle is 3-3-5, and Portland is 4-3-2. The rivalry between Portland and Seattle dates to 1975, when both teams were part of the North American Soccer League.

The Timbers’ independent supporters’ group, the Timbers Army, took 10 buses the three hour’s drive up Interstate 5 to the match.

In a scoreless first half, the Sounders came close to scoring in extra time, but Fredy Montero’s free kick hit a post and got caught in the side netting.

Montero nearly scored just a minute into the second half with a header from the right corner of the goal that barely missed.

The Sounders finally succeeded with Fernandez’s goal in the 52nd minute that sailed past diving Portland goalkeeper Troy Perkins.

The Timbers evened it in the 65th minute on Danso’s goal. Seattle goalkeeper Kasey Keller rushed forward to stop Jack Jewsbury’s free kick, which Danso headed into the net.

Seattle will visit Portland on July 10. Vancouver travels to Seattle on June 11, with the Sounders going north on Sept. 24.

The Whitecaps play at Portland on Aug. 20 and the Timbers become Vancouver’s first opponent at remodeled B.C. Place stadium on Oct. 2.

Leipheimer chases fourth Tour of California title

Versus will provide daily coverage from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. for the first six stages, 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday, and 3:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. next Sunday.

The Associated Press

Bend’s Horner set to ride Bend’s Chris Horner is brimming with confidence entering the 2011 Tour of California.

Earlier this week, Horner told VeloNews he predicts that either he or his RadioShack teammate, Levi Leipheimer, will win this year’s race.

“I think I’m in exceptional form,” Horner said.

“Depending on how the tactics play out, if it turns out that I have to work for Levi, and if our team can do solid work, I think we’ll go 1-2 on GC (general classification).”

SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. — Levi Leipheimer will have to outlast a strong international field of Tour de France contenders and world champions — including fellow American Chris Horner, of Bend — to win his fourth overall title in the Tour of California.

“The Tour of California has always been a big goal of mine,” said Leipheimer, the Montana native and Santa Rosa, Calif., resident who has won six stages, has held the race lead for 22 days, and won the overall title three consecutive years beginning in 2007. “I always seem to find the extra motivation.”

The weather-threatened 800-mile race is scheduled to start today with a 118.7-mile loop around Lake Tahoe that will finish at Northstar-at-Tahoe Resort.

Breaking records is one of the things the Summit track and field program does best.

The host Storm set a new school mark Saturday at the Class 5A Special District 1 track championships, qualifying 32 competitors for next week’s Class 5A boys and girls state championship meets in Eugene, bettering the previous school

record by 10.

After two days of competition, both the Summit boys and girls emerged as district champions. The Storm boys won with 146 points, 75 points ahead of second-place Bend. The girls team competition was somewhat closer as second-place Mountain View (123.5) trailed the Storm (173 points) by 49.5 points.

For a handful of Central Oregon high school golf teams, competing in the state tournament has become as much as part of the calendar year as Opening Day or the Super Bowl. There’s death, taxes and the Summit girls in the 5A state golf championship.

The Crook County boys are not one of those teams.

For the first time in a long time, the Cowboys will be making an appearance in a state tournament. The boys from Prineville will be playing in their own backyard Monday and Tuesday at the Class 4A state championship at Eagle Crest Resort’s Ridge Course in Redmond.

“As near as we can figure it, it’s been at least 15 years,” says Cowboy boys golf coach Zach Lampert, whose team placed second at the Class 4A Greater Oregon League championships last week in Union. “It’s been a long time.”

But not a surprise. Crook County more than held its own this season against Redmond, Summit and Bend, teams that are playing in the Class 6A and 5A state tournaments Monday and Tuesday.

Bulls, Heat set to collide in Eastern Conference finals Miami’s Dwyane Wade

Jeffrey M. Boan / The Associated Press

DEERFIELD, Ill. — On the night of the big “Decision” last summer, Luol Deng was at the Kakuma refugee camp in Kenya with no TV, and no one was asking if LeBron James would sign with the Chicago Bulls.

Deng wasn’t paying attention to the soap opera. No one there was.

“They didn’t really care,” Deng said.

Deng will be paying close attention to James starting today, when the Bulls meet the Miami Heat in an Eastern Conference finals that could have been ripped out of a Hollywood script.

“Everyone has the right to make the decision that they want,” Deng said. “They got what they wanted. We’re happy with the team that we have.”

Jordan Hasay won the 1,500 meters and the 5,000 meters to lead the women, who finished with 154.5 points, just ahead of second-place Arizona (150).

English Gardner won the 100 meters for the Ducks. On the men’s side, Matthew Centrowitz won the 1,500 meters and Mike Berry won the 400 to lead the Ducks, who finished with 129 points to top Arizona (112).

• Gatto beats Contador to take Giro’s 8th stage: Oscar Gatto fought off a late charge from race favorite Alberto Contador to win the eighth stage of the Giro d’Italia on Saturday, and Pieter Weening kept the overall lead. Gatto attacked on the final climb to the finish and only Contador broke from the pack to chase him.

The pair finished the 134.5-mile stage that began in Sapri in 4 hours, 59 minutes, 45 seconds, while Alessandro Petacchi led home the chasing pack to finish 5 seconds behind in third. Weening finished in the pack to keep the pink jersey for the fourth consecutive day with an overall time of 28:09:49. He led Kanstantsin Sivtsov of Belarus and Marco Pinotti of Italy by 2 seconds.

Tennis • Nadal, Djokovic to meet in Italian Open final: No. 1 Rafael Nadal and No. 2 Novak Djokovic will resume their rivalry in the Italian Open final today in Rome.

Nadal, who has won this tournament five of the last six years, overcame a tough first set against Richard Gasquet on Saturday before rolling to a 7-5, 6-1 semifinal victory. Djokovic was pushed to the limit in extending his unbeaten streak to 38 matches, defeating fourth-ranked Andy Murray 6-1, 3-6, 7-6 (2). In the women’s final, Maria Sharapova will meet Sam Stosur, last year’s French Open runnerup. Sharapova outslugged top-ranked Caroline Wozniacki 7-5, 6-3, and Stosur downed fourth-seeded Li Na of China 7-6 (6), 6-0.

Baseball • Dropped to 9th in order, Posada asks out of lineup: Jorge Posada asked to be taken out of the New York Yankees’ lineup Saturday night after the slumping designated hitter was dropped to No. 9 in the batting order. Posada, hitting .165 this season, was in the original lineup posted by manager Joe Girardi for the game against the Boston Red Sox. But general manager Brian Cashman said Posada went into Girardi’s office at 6 p.m. and requested that he be removed. Posada’s wife tweeted that the five-time All-Star had back stiffness. But a person familiar with the discussion between Posada and the team told The Associated Press that he “refused” to play. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the situation was still not settled. The person said the Yankees have been in contact with the commissioner’s office about possible recourse. The Yankees could fine Posada one day’s pay — that would be $71,978 on his $13.1 million salary. If a player declines to play two days in a row, he could be put on the restricted list.

Hockey • Ex-NHL player Barnaby accused of criminal mischief: ESPN hockey analyst and former NHL player Matthew Barnaby pleaded not guilty Saturday to charges related to a “domestic incident” at an upstate New York home, police said. The 38year-old Barnaby was arrested Friday and spent the night in jail after being picked up at a home in Getzville, a hamlet in Amherst where his wife and two children live, police said. He pleaded not guilty to five charges, including criminal mischief, criminal trespass and harassment, and was released on his own recognizance. Police refused to give further details.

• Cause of Ranger’s death unclear: It may be weeks before authorities know exactly how and why New York Rangers enforcer Derek Boogaard died, although foul play was not immediately suspected.

The 28-year-old player was found dead Friday in his Minneapolis apartment.

Few details were available, but the news rippled across the NHL, where the 6-foot7 Boogaard was a fan favorite and one of the game’s most feared fighters. He missed most of last season because of a concussion and shoulder injury from a fight. “I don’t think we have any answers as to what happened or why it happened,” Ron Salcer, Boogaard’s agent, said.

Auto racing • Carpenter tops speed chart on opening day at Indy: Sarah Fisher retired from driving to start a family. Turns out, her replacement can deliver, too. Ed Carpenter turned a fast lap of 224.786 mph in the No. 67 car Saturday, putting the expectant mother and team owner atop the speed charts on the opening day of Indianapolis 500 practice. New Zealand’s Scott Dixon, the 2008 Indy winner, was second at 224.491 mph. Carpenter posted his speed just before rain started falling for the first time Saturday. The delay wiped out nearly two hours of the scheduled six-hour session. Workers finally got the track dry enough late in the day to get everyone back out on the track again. But a second round of showers limited washed out the final 45 minutes of practice. Rookie JR Hildebrand, of Panther Racing, surprised many by finishing third at 224.433 — just two days after passing his rookie test. Defending champ and two-time 500 winner Dario Franchitti, Dixon’s teammate at Target Chip Ganassi, was fourth at 224.107.

Soccer • ManU clinches Premier League title: An achievement 25 years in the making, Alex Ferguson’s Manchester United finally became the most successful team in English league history on Saturday with a 19th title triumph that overhauled Liverpool’s record. With only a point required at Blackburn to capture the Premier League trophy with a game to spare, Wayne Rooney salvaged a 1-1 draw from the penalty spot in the 73rd minute.

Swimming • Wu beats Phelps again: Peng Wu again got the best of Michael Phelps. Wu, the club Wolverine swimmer who spoiled Phelps’ near decade-long streak in the 200 fly last month, repeated the feat on Saturday, overcoming Phelps on the final 50 meters at the Charlotte UltraSwim at Mecklenburg County Aquatic Center in North Carolina. Phelps, who hadn’t lost in this event in 60 attempts covering nearly nine years, has two straight losses, both to Wu. Phelps looked impressive for the first three laps, but couldn’t get the win.

Boxing •Ward dominates Abraham, moves to Super 6 final: Andre Ward overwhelmed Germany’s Arthur Abraham with power and speed in nearly every round of an unanimous decision victory Saturday night in Carson, Calif., defending his WBA super middleweight title and advancing to the Super Six tournament final. Ward, the Olympic gold medalist from Oakland, Calif., is one fight away from the tournament title that should establish him as the 168pound division’s top fighter. England’s Carl Froch will meet Glen Johnson in the other Super Six semifinal bout in Atlantic City, N.J., on June 4. The final is expected this fall. Ward (24-0, 13 KOs) put on another clinic in patient, tactical boxing while dismantling Abraham (32-3), the Armenianborn German who had a perfect record until losing three straight in the Super Six. — From wire reports

UO blows seven-run OSU and UW split lead in loss to Stanford Pac-10 doubleheader From wire reports

From wire reports

EUGENE — Stanford erased a seven-run Oregon lead to even the teams’ Pac-10 series with a 9-8 victory on Saturday at PK Park in front of a season-high 2,393 fans.

The Ducks (25-24-1, 6-14 Pac-10) scored eight runs in the game’s first five innings, but were shut out for the final four as the Cardinal (28-17, 10-10) rallied and scored the go-ahead run in the top of the eighth.

Oregon’s pitching staff allowed 15 hits as the Cardinal scored eight runs in the sixth, seventh and eighth innings.

After a three-run inning in the sixth, Stanford scored four runs on five hits in the top of the seventh to even the game at eight runs apiece. In relief of Alex Keudell, Kellen Moen yielded four runs on four hits in just two-thirds of an inning in the top of the seventh. Moen surrendered back-to-back singles before Stephen Piscotty drove a tworun double to left as Stanford closed to 8-6. Brian Ragira then drove a triple into right field as the ball got by a diving Aaron Jones, allowing Piscotty to score from second.

That spelled the end for Moen, bringing Madison Boer to the hill with a runner on third and just one out. Boer retired Kenny Diekroeger, but surrendered a one-run single to Danny Diekroeger as Stanford evened the game 8-8.

In the top of the eighth, Stanford pushed the gamewinning run across the plate on two hits and two Oregon errors. Dave Giulani reached first base on an infield hit and moved to second on a KC Serna throwing error. Zach Jones then knocked a single into left, allowing Giulani to score.

Boer (3-5), in his second relief appearance in as many days, took the loss, allowing one unearned run on three hits and one walk in 2 2⁄3 innings on the hill.

After scoring eight runs on 12 hits through the first five innings, Oregon was shut out and held without a hit for the final four innings of the game.

Winning pitcher Chris Reed (4-2) played a role in that, retiring nine of the last 10 batters he faced, holding the Ducks scoreless and hitless for three innings while striking out three.

Danny Pulfer led the way for Oregon offensively with a three-for-four effort, driving in two runs. Ryon Healy doubled and singled, and Serna was two for five, with a double, a run scored and an RBI. The series finale and rubber game is set for 1 p.m. today. The game will also be aired on Comcast SportsNet Northwest.

SEATTLE —The second-ranked Oregon State baseball team split a doubleheader with Washington Saturday at Husky Ballpark, taking game one, 9-3, and losing game two, 7-6.

The first-game victory gave the Beavers (37-12, 16-5 Pac-10) the series victory over the Huskies (14-33, 5-16), In the first game, Oregon State hit four home runs — its most in one game in seven seasons. Andrew Susac, Ryan Dunn, Jake Rodriguez and Kavin Keyes all went deep for the Beavers, who last hit four in a game on March 31, 2004, against Portland.

Susac and Dunn went back-to-back in the first inning to highlight the Beavers’ four-run first. For Susac, it was his team-leading fifth of the season and put OSU up 3-0.

Dunn then homered over the left-center field fence for his fourth of the season.

Washington answered with three unearned runs to pull within one, 4-3, entering the sixth inning, but Rodriguez broke the game open with a three-run blast to left that put the Beavers up 7-3.

Keyes capped off Oregon State’s scoring with his first home run of the season in the seventh, a two-run shot for the six-run advantage.

Sam Gaviglio started and worked 5 2⁄3 innings in the win. He allowed 10 hits and three runs — all unearned.

He improved to 10-1 with the win.

In the second game, Oregon State squandered a 6-0 lead and the Huskies won the game in the ninth on a bases-loaded walk by Troy Scott.

Washington loaded the bases after OSU pitcher Tony Bryant intentionally walked Jacob Lamb with no outs.

But Scott was able to get the count to 3-2 before Bryant unleashed ball four for the Huskies’ comeback victory.

The Beavers found themselves up 6-0 after three innings, in which both Danny Hayes and Andrew Susac drove in two apiece. But the Huskies scored two in the sixth off OSU starter Ben Wetzler, then four more in the seventh to tie the game at six.

Adam Cimber worked the final three innings for Washington to improve to 3-4 this season. He allowed two hits and no runs with one walk.

Bryant, meanwhile, dropped to 3-2 this season. He allowed three hits and a run with three strikeouts and three walks in two innings.

Oregon State returns to Corvallis next weekend for a series with USC.

Tour Continued from D1 The 37-year-old Leipheimer, riding for Team RadioShack, was third last year, 25 seconds behind Australia’s Michael Rogers. This year, Leipheimer was third overall in the Vuelta a Andalucia and eighth in the Paris-Nice.

“It’s been a bit of an up-anddown year,” Leipheimer said Friday. “The past month has been better. We do have a strong team.

We have a team that can defend the lead if we take it, and another rider, Chris Horner, who can win it.”

Horner, 39, was fourth last year.

Luxembourg’s Andy Schleck, second the past two years in the Tour de France; American Dave Zabriskie, second in the Tour of California last year; and four other top-10 Tour of California overall finishers from 2010 are entered in the sixth annual event.

Continued from D1 In district play, the Cowboys shot a two-day score of 670 — 59 strokes back of GOL champion La Grande, which was playing on one of its home courses — a score that was the second-best district mark of any team heading to the 2011 4A state tournament, according to Lampert. Crook County expects to go even lower Monday and Tuesday playing on a course that is approximately 20 miles from Prineville.

“The kids know the course and they all like the course,” says Lampert, a 2005 Crook County graduate. “We still haven’t played our best round of the year. Everyone’s posted scores in the 70s, but we haven’t done it all together. If we can, we’ve got a real shot to compete for it all.”

While the Cowboys are looking to make a trophy run for the first time in recent memory, the Summit girls have their sights set on a third consecutive Class 5A state title at Emerald Valley Golf Course in Creswell starting Monday. The Storm dominated last week’s Special District 1 tournament, shooting a 679 to defeat runner-up Bend High (751) by 72 strokes. Summit, which defeated Corvallis by seven strokes last year for its second straight state championship, is led by district medalist Madi Mansberger and district runner-up Kristen Parr. The two Storm underclassmen — Mansberger is a sophomore and Parr is a junior — both finished in the top 10 at state a year ago.

Summit’s girls squad is not the only golf team from the west-side Bend school looking to bring home a trophy. The Storm boys return to the 5A state championship, this year held at Quail Valley Golf Course in Banks, after taking second in 2010. Summit lost two of its top three players from last season to graduation, but have reloaded with a strong freshman class.

“On paper we look pretty young,” says Storm coach Mark Tichenor, whose squad won the Special District 1 tournament in Bend last week by 25 strokes over Bend High. “But our young kids are pretty experienced.”

Junior Dylan Cramer, the Special District 1 medalist, tops Summit’s roster, and freshmen T.K. Wasserman and Ryan Blackwell have been the Storm’s No. 2 and 3 golfers for most of the season.

“T.K. Wasserman and Ryan Blackwell, their whole summers are competitive golf tournaments,” Tichenor says, dismissing the notion that his team is too young to challenge for a state title. “This is just another tournament for them.”

Tichenor said be believes he has the top No. 4 golfer in the state in Cole Ortega. No stranger to pressure situations, Ortega, who shot a 79 during the second round at state last year, is playing competitive golf again despite surviving a freak surfing accident less than three years ago in which his left arm was completely severed from his body.

“The team that wins will have the best third and fourth score,” Tichenor says. “The fact that might be Cole Ortega for us, I really like that. He hasn’t peaked yet (this season), but his game is really coming around. … When the lights come on, he performs.

Last year he shot in the 70s the second day. It will not surprise me to see him show his true self.”

State tournament action starts Monday and concludes Tuesday for all of Central Oregon’s teams.

ed courses. The first stage, the race’s first outside of California, is not planned to dip below 6,200 feet.

Several recent landslides on Highway 1 also required the event to switch a traditional coastal route in stage 5 — from the Monterey Peninsula to Paso Robles — to an inland course.

After four years of February dates, the Tour of California was switched to May last year for better weather, particularly in the Lake Tahoe region.

Rogers, a three-time world time trial champion, is recovering from a virus and is not entered.

Schleck, second to Alberto Contador by 39 seconds in last year’s Tour de France, has been training near Lake Tahoe for several days.

He is competing in the Tour of California rather than preparing for the Tour de France in the current Tour of Italy.

“It’s no secret if I say my goal is the Tour de France,” Schleck said. “But here, if I can follow Levi in the climbs, I think I can have a good race.”

Schleck and seven LeopardTrek teammates will compete in the Tour of California after teammate Wouter Weylandt of Belgium died this past Monday following a crash in the third stage of the Tour of Italy.

“I’m not going to sit back and relax in the peloton,” said Schleck, whose team will wear black wristbands to honor Weylandt. “I will say I’m going for the classification (overall title) and if there’s an opportunity for a stage. But we’ll have to see how it goes on the road.”

Stage 2 on Monday will begin at Squaw Valley and will take the riders 133.2 miles to Sacramento.

The route will include the climb to Donner Pass (elevation 7,100 feet) and then a sharply descending route to the state capital.

In addition to beginning at altitude for the first time, the race will include two new mountaintop finishes, scheduled in stages 4 and 7.

The eight-day race will end next Sunday with an 82.3-mile stage from Santa Clarita to Thousand Oaks.

Danger of crashes is fresh in cyclists’ minds LAKE TAHOE, Nev. — We have been accustomed to watching professional cyclists descend mountains as if they weren’t traveling at 50 mph or more and as if they weren’t protected by anything more than a helmet on their heads and a thin layer of Lycra on their bodies.

This past Monday, a 26-year-old Belgian, Wouter Weylandt, was making a descent during the Giro d’Italia when he crashed and died.

Weylandt was not hugely famous — even in Europe, where cycling receives front-page coverage — but his death has shaken the sport, especially riders from his team, Leopard Trek, a first-year outfit created to showcase the talents of brothers Andy and Frank Schleck.

Andy has twice finished second at the Tour de France, including last year when he was only 39 seconds behind winner Alberto Contador. Schleck wasn’t riding in the Giro. He had arrived here last Sunday to prepare for the Tour of California, which begins today, and on May 21 at Mount Baldy near Los Angeles will include the biggest mountain stage in the fiveyear history of the race.

Leopard Trek pulled out of the Giro, but the team selected for the California race is here.

Deadly crashes in major bike races have become comfortingly unfamiliar. Only four racers

have ever died at the Giro, just three at the Tour de France. The last fatality in the world’s most famous race came in 1995 when Fabio Casartelli, a teammate with Lance Armstrong on the Motorola team, was killed in a crash.

Paul Sherwen, a commentator for the Versus television coverage, was director of that Motorola team, and he said Casartelli’s death hasn’t left him yet.

“It is so vivid,” Sherwen said. “Such a moment can’t leave your mind.”

Schleck bit his lip and rubbed his hands together as he spoke Friday of Weylandt’s death.

“There are no words to describe my feelings,” he said. “He is my brother and my teammate. It has been hard for me to stay focused on training these last days. But I think Wouter would have liked for us to race now. He would say, ‘Just stay and do your best.’”

Levi Leipheimer, a three-time winner of this race, said he’s been scared during descents.

“On TV it looks fairly docile,” he said. “At times descents look boring and I’ll watch and want riders to attack. ‘Why don’t you go, go, go on the limit?’ I’ll think. But it takes just a moment’s lapse, a little loss of concentration and you have serious injury or even more.”

Lightning score three goals in under two minutes to top Bruins

By Howard Ulman The Associated Press

BOSTON — The swift-skating Tampa Bay Lightning wasted little time taking control of the Eastern Conference finals.

Sean Bergenheim began a stretch of three Tampa Bay goals in 1 minutes and 25 seconds in the first period and the Lightning beat the Boston Bruins 5-2 on Saturday night for their eighth straight victory.

“We’re not a team that’s waiting to win games,” Tampa Bay coach Guy Boucher said after the Lightning grabbed home-ice advantage from the Bruins. “We like to push to win games.”

Bergenheim, who scored just 14 goals in the regular season, got his NHL-high eighth of the playoffs at 11:15.

Brett Clark connected at 11:34 and Teddy Purcell wrapped up the onslaught, both with unassisted goals. The two goals in 19 seconds and three in 1:25 are club records.

“That’s what we do,” Bergenheim said. “We went in on the forecheck and we went in front of the net and we score that way.”

Bergenheim scored after Tim Thomas made a save and Dennis Seidenberg tried to clear the rebound with his right skate after losing his stick. But the puck went right to Bergenheim and he beat Thomas from just in front of the crease.

“It was just a big battle in front of the net,” Seidenberg said. “I lost my stick and I obviously didn’t know what to do without a stick and the puck at my feet. I kicked it to whoever scored the goal. I’m not sure.”

Tyler Seguin, the No. 2 overall draft pick last year, scored for Boston with 4:01 left in the first period in his playoff debut.

Tampa Bay scored twice in the last seven minutes — Marc-Andre Bergeron on

Boston’s Chris Kelly wipes his face as a Tampa Bay Lightning player celebrates a goal during the third period of Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals Saturday in Boston. a power play and Simon Gagne into an empty net — before Johnny Boychuk made it 5-2.

Game 2 of the best-of-seven series is Tuesday night in Boston.

Both teams were coming off long layoffs after sweeping their previous series. It was the first game in 10 days for the Lightning and first in eight for the Bruins.

But the speedy Lightning, the 2004 Stanley Cup champions, showed little rust in an arena where they were just 425-6 before beginning their first playoff series ever against the Bruins.Tampa Bay capitalized on Boston mistakes to roll to the commanding lead.

“I thought we gave them some easy goals and that was more of our doing than it was theirs,” Bruins coach Claude Julien said.

Summit’s Alexander Needham, right, hands the baton off to Jesse Sanderson while competing in the 400meter relay at the Class 5A Special District 1 meet Saturday at Summit High School. Summit won the event, while Bend, shown at left, finished second.

Continued from D1 In three separate events the Summit girls took the top three spots: high jump, the 100-meter hurdles and the 1,500.

The Storm managed to qualify all three of their 1,500 entrants as Ashley Maton won in 4 minutes, 45.38 seconds, while Megan Fristoe was a close second. Kira Kelly also will go to Eugene next week as her time of 4:50.77 bested the state’s 5A girls state-qualifying mark. (The top two finishers from each event earn state championship berths as well as athletes who meet predetermined state-qualifying marks).

Summit sophomore Josie Kinney added wins in the 100 and 300 hurdles.

“She’s the perfect example of what an athlete should be,” Turnbull said. “She just does everything right.”

The Storm, the four-time defending state champions, proved strong, but the Mountain View girls were not far behind and qualified 13 girls for the 5A state meet.

Shaina Zollman won the triple jump on Saturday with a leap of 35 feet, 4.25 inches after taking first in the long jump on Friday. Mountain View’s Anna Roshak (39-10.5) and Meghan Ridling (35-5) grabbed the top two spots in the shot put.

“I’ve said from the beginning of the year that Mountain View could be a team to deal with at the state meet,” Turnbull said. “They’re strong, they’re deep, they’re solid.”

Bend High, which was paced by Tesla Wright’s second-place result in the pole vault (10-6), finished third overall with 30 points.

On the boys side, Summit’s Cole Thomas broke the 11-second barrier in the 100, recording a new career-best time of 10.94 seconds while winning the event. Thomas finished second behind teammate Jesse Sanderson in the 200 with a time of 23.12. Sanderson won in 22.92.

The 1,500 is becoming the Storm’s signature event. The Summit boys, who have captured a district title three years in a row, swept the top three places as Travis Neuman, Luke Hinz and Eric Alldritt finished first, second and third.

Neuman won in 4:06.52, while Hinz followed in 4:06.81.

The Bend High boys battled on without one of their top sprinters as Tom Steelhammer, the defending Intermountain Conference 400-meter champion, pulled a hamstring Friday and was forced to withdraw from Saturday’s events. J.C. Grim won the javelin and placed third in the high jump with a state-qualifying mark for the Lava Bears a day after he won the triple jump.

Caleb Buzzas added a win in the long jump for Bend.

Mountain View, which qualified 10 boys for the state meet, finished third with 63 points.

The Cougars’ Riley Anheluk and Chris McBride placed first and second in the 800, as did Blake Bosch and Mitch Modin in the high jump. Modin also took runner-up honors in the long jump.

The Class 5A state championship meet kicks off on Friday at Hayward Field in Eugene.

Outlaw girls take Sky-Em League track title Bulletin staff report SISTERS — The Sisters girls had one of their best district track meets since the school reopened in 1992, winning the Sky-Em League title with 189 points.

The Outlaw boys also finished strong Saturday, taking runnerup honors to Cottage Grove.

La Pine, which also competed at the Sky-Em championships at Sisters High, placed fourth in the boys team standings and sixth in the girls competition.

“What an amazing day,” said Sisters coach Nik Goertzen, who was named the Sky-Em’s girls coach of the year. “I’ve never been more proud of a group of girls.

They really stepped up.”

According to Goertzen, Saturday’s victory was just the second girls district title for the school in the last 18 years.

Freshman Zoe Falk soared during her first district competition, winning the 800- and 1,500-meter races in addition to taking second in the long jump. Falk also ran a leg on the Outlaws’ 1,600-meter relay squad that took first.

“She’s something special,” Goertzen said about Falk.

Fellow freshman Natalie Ambrose added a pair of runner-up marks in the 200 and 400 and Chelsea Reifschneider recorded a first-place finish in the 300 hurdles.

Brittnie Haigler highlighted the La Pine girls’ effort with a win in the triple jump. Ashley Agenbroad also earned a spot at state with a second-place finish in the discus. The top two performers in each event at district earned a berth to the Class 4A state meet next week.

Taylor Steele pulled off the distance double for the Sisters boys, winning the 3,000 on Thursday and the 1,500 on Saturday. Easton Curtis took first in the 800, second in the 400 and he, Steele, David Cowan and Landon Prescott together posted the fastest time of the meet in the 1,600-meter relay.

Spencer Wilson paced the La Pine boys with a win in the 200 and a third-place finish in the 400.

Wilson, Jeremy Desrosiers, Deion Mock and Kole Kimmel also finished second in the 400-meter relay.

Travis Harrison followed up his third-place finish Thursday in the discus with a runner-up performance Saturday in the shot.

The Class 4A state track and field championships start Friday at the University of Oregon’s Hayward Field.

This was the first game of the season Alderman has batted in, having had his left arm in a cast the past seven months because of a football injury. Jon Lahey earned the win for the Outlaws (21-3), pitching 1 2⁄3 innings in relief of starter Shane Groth. In addition to Alderman’s two RBIs, Justin Erlandson and Jordan Hodges each doubled for Sisters. The Lava Bears (17-8) led 5-4 after three innings and were sparked by Grant Newton’s two-run home run in the top of the third. Bend and Sisters will play again in Sisters on Tuesday.

GOLF ROUNDUP

AUTO RACING: NASCAR

No big moves on a rain-shortened day at The Players Championship The Associated Press

NBA Continued from D1 The Bulls wound up with one of the deepest teams after failing to reel in the “Big Three” and are back in the conference finals for the first time since Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen were completing their second championship three-peat in 1998. Along with Rose, they have the Coach of the Year in Tom Thibodeau, a leagueleading 62 wins and homecourt advantage.

As consolations go, that’s not bad.

Beating the Heat would be even better.

With enough cap room to lure two star free agents, the Bulls made it clear they were going to be big spenders last summer and were looking for more after winning 41 games and losing in the first round each of the past two years.

They fired Vinny Del Negro and replaced him with Thibodeau, the first in a series of major moves that vaulted them into the championship picture. When the Big Three decided to unite in South Beach, Chicago acquired Carlos Boozer and role players like Kyle Korver.

But what if the Bulls had landed one or two of the “Big Three?”

Chicago had a strong pitch, with

Nick Watney watches his ball bounce onto the second green during the third round of The Players Championship Saturday in Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla. Watney is tied for the lead. this morning, and threesomes then will be sent out in the afternoon. With some 30 holes remaining and so many top players in the hunt, rarely has a final day been this wide open.

“I could see someone going and shooting 62, 63 tomorrow,” McDowell said. “I think there’s a low score on this golf course, depending on what the wind does tomorrow. But it really has opened the field up a little bit. It’s going to be exciting.”

It already was, even with the little golf that was played.

Sean O’Hair, who had missed his last five cuts, birdied his last two holes for a 67 to post the best 54-hole score Saturday at 7-under 209, but only because the leaders didn’t even reach the turn.

Peter Hanson bogeyed the last hole for a 66. Phil Mickelson barely finished, just not the way he would have liked. He made eagle on the 16th, followed with a birdie

on the 17th and then ended with a bogey for a 69. He was at 5-under 211.

“I had a good finish until that bogey on 18,” Mickelson said.

“That eagle on 16 and birdie on 17 got me into position where I thought you never know what might happen on Sunday. So I’ve got to go low.”

Martin Kaymer, who can return to No. 1 in the world by winning this week, might have had the most wild 12 holes of his season. He opened with four straight birdies by a combined 6 feet of length — the longest was 3½ feet, two of them inside a foot. He tied for the lead by making a 10-foot birdie on the seventh, then ran off three straight bogeys to drop back.Kaymer played 12 holes and made only three pars.

Such scoring was not evident the first two steamy days, played under sunshine. But after nearly an inch of rain fell during the long

delay, they might as well have called this the TPC Cupcake.

McDowell, Watney and everyone else were firing at flags and watching their shots stay around the hole. Robert Allenby, who had a 68, said he hit a 5-wood about 6 feet short of the flag on the 16th and it only moved a few feet.

The course drained beautifully, however, so the shots from the fairway were clean. That’s why scores were low, and it could turn into quite the shootout today.

Also on Saturday: Wood still leads in Spain SON SERVERA, Spain — England’s Chris Wood shot a 1-under 69 to extend lead to his lead to four strokes after the third round of the Iberdrola Open. Wood had a 9-under 201 total. Ireland’s Shane Lowry shot a 63, matching the course record set Thursday

by Frenchman Gregory Bourdy, to join Northern Ireland’s Darren Clarke (70) at 5 under.

one of the top young point guards in Rose and solid support like Deng and Joakim Noah.

“It was a great meeting that I had with that team and that franchise, knowing the history,” James said. “There was some great things that they said, but at the end of the day, I felt like this was the best opportunity for me to win a championship.

“But it was a great team,” he added. “I definitely had one or two mornings where I woke up thinking I would be a Bull, too, but ultimately I decided to come here.”

Wade joked that “it was like two mornings” he woke up thinking he would sign with Chicago.

“I grew up in the city, I grew up with my dreams of wanting to become an NBA player from the Chicago Bulls,” Wade said. “It was flattering from that standpoint and they gave a great presentation, great opportunity. Just felt that the Miami opportunity was better.”

But what if? What if James and Wade had signed with Chicago? Or if one of them joined Bosh with the Bulls? Would Rose have shown up for training camp wondering why he couldn’t be the MVP — and gone on to win it, ending James’ two-year reign?

Or would he have settled into more of a traditional point guard role, setting up his high-profile teammates?

“I really don’t know,” he said.

“I’m too caught up into this year and too caught up in my teammates to even comment about it because I’m fine with the teammates I have now.”

At 62-20, the Bulls matched their best record since the 1997-98 championship season and swept three regular-season games from Miami, albeit by a combined eight points. That was apparently enough to make the Heat break down, with coach Erik Spoelstra acknowledging there were “a couple of guys crying in the locker room” after Chicago’s 87-86 victory on March 26.

The Heat eventually regrouped and won 15 of 18 down the stretch to finish with 58 wins and the second seed. They took out Philadelphia and Boston in five games each, and they come into this series with James and Wade on a roll.

Wade averaged 30.2 points in the Boston series. James scored 35 and 33 in the final two games against the Celtics.

When they take the court on Sunday, Deng will certainly be paying attention.

After all, he’ll be trying to contain him.

Deng didn’t have much luck in the playoffs last year against Cleveland, when James averaged 31.8 points, but the Bulls emerged as one of the league’s best defen-

sive teams under Thibodeau.

Then again, James now has plenty of help, with Wade and Bosh.

“I think a lot of people are looking forward to this series,” James said. “Honestly, a lot of people didn’t think we’d get past Boston.

So we’re moving on and we’re looking forward to the challenge.

Two good teams, two great defensive teams, so it’s going to be a struggle for both teams offensively at times. May the best man win.”

THE

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. — Nick Watney and Graeme McDowell were atop the leaderboard after a short day of work Saturday in The Players Championship.

The winner of golf’s richest prize will have to work overtime.

After storms that delayed the third round by 4½ hours and softened the TPC Sawgrass, Watney and McDowell came out firing in the twilight to reach 11-under par through only five holes when play was suspended by darkness.

The biggest move all day might have been a pine that toppled by a big gust during the thunderstorms.

David Toms, the 36-hole leader who had to wait until dinner time to tee off, only made it through five holes. He made all pars, and probably was happy to stop. Toms had birdie putts inside 12 feet on every hole — two of them inside 7 feet — and missed them all to stay at 10 under. Steve Stricker also was at 10 under after two birdies.

Only 40 players managed to finish the third round. That included Ian Poulter, who had reason to be exhausted for other reasons. Realizing that play was going to be stopped, and not wanting to return at 7:45 a.m. Sunday to finish one hole, he sprinted to the 17th green and quickly two-putted for par, then ran off toward the 18th tee and hit his tee shot as the group in front was just leaving the tee.

It’s a common move in tournament golf — once any player in a group tees off, the entire group is allowed to finish the hole. Poulter finished with a bogey for a 74, but at least he gets to sleep in. So does his playing partner, Dustin Johnson, who shot 73.

“A little 300-yard sprint is well worth four hours in bed,” Poulter said.

The third round is to resume

Johnson gets pole at Dover after qualifying is washed out

By Dan Gelston The Associated Press

DOVER, Del. — Jimmie Johnson stopped at a media scrum and snapped a photo of Bobby Allison.

Johnson will zoom in on Allison again when he starts first today at Dover International Speedway. Johnson is one win shy of matching Allison and Richard Petty’s record of seven wins on the Monster Mile.

Johnson has won three of the last four races at Dover, including a sweep in 2009.

The five-time defending Cup champion doesn’t need any additional help going for the checkered flag. But he caught a break when rain wiped out qualifying Saturday and put his No. 48 Chevrolet on the pole.

Johnson starts first in today’s Sprint Cup race because he posted the fastest average practice speeds. This is the first time this season NASCAR had to use the new system that starts drivers based on practice speed, not the points standings.

“I don’t feel like we have a very good handle on it, although things worked good for us this weekend,” Johnson said.

Of course they did. He’s Jimmie Johnson.

AJ Allmendinger will start second after rain hit hard at Dover on Saturday. Dale Earnhardt Jr. is third, Kasey Kahne fourth and Joey Logano fifth.

“I don’t understand,” Allmendinger said, turning to-

Edwards wins Nationwide race DOVER, Del. — Carl Edwards was sure he tapped Joey Logano.

Edwards missed him — and all the mayhem behind him.

Logano lost control on his own and tagged the wall, triggering a wreck-filled final lap that knocked out several contenders and let Edwards win the Nationwide Series race Saturday at Dover International Speedway.

“Man, that’s why they call it the Monster Mile,” Edwards said.

Edwards battled with Logano on the final restart of the race that turned dangerous in a hurry. Logano got loose and slid up as he tried to scoot around Edwards and hit the wall, sparking a pile up that eliminated Clint Bowyer from contention.

Kyle Busch was second and Reed Sorenson third. Ricky Stenhouse Jr., and David Reutimann round out the top five.

— The Associated Press ward Johnson with a smile.

“The system is the same for you. You’re either fastest, or they used to do it by points, so you started on the pole. Not sure how much different that is for you.”

Feud giving the college a black eye

C

entral Oregon Community College is a jewel in Central Oregon.

It has been for a long time and will be in the future.

Without it, there would likely be no branch of Oregon State University in Bend. Nor would there have been the decades of opportunity that have propelled students to better lives and more fulfilling livelihoods.

That legacy is no accident. It comes from a community’s commitment, a faculty’s excellence and superb leadership from successive administrations and elected boards of directors. That’s why reporter Sheila Miller’s recent story on A1 of The Bulletin was both sad and worrisome.

And not just in and of itself, since the story described but the latest development in an ongoing catfight involving Associated Students of COCC, the school’s administration and the student newspaper The Broadside.

It’s sad because, whether intended or not, the accusations, threats and consequences are nearing a level where they could blemish the college’s reputation.

This is the place to acknowledge that one former Bulletin staffer has worked as an adviser to The Broadside, and a current staffer is on the publications board, though she recuses herself from news decisions at The Bulletin involving the student newspaper.

In the grand tradition of troublemaking student newspapers, The Broadside, however imperfectly, started questioning the expenditure of student fees by ASCOCC, and then, as I read it, started questioning the legitimacy of the leadership of the student government itself.

There is a long and rich tradition of aggressive student newspapers. Routinely they ask difficult and, at times, indelicate questions, usually of school administrations. At times imperfect, but always energetic, student newspapers have sometimes been booted off campuses and established as independent journals.

But at the moment, anyway, The Broadside remains a student fee-supported and COCC-advised journal.

And it is the fees that are at the heart of the argument. COCC collects fees from students and distributes them via ASCOCC. Ron Paradis, director of college relations, said ASCOCC this year had about $350,000 to spend. This money has, historically, paid for any number of good causes, Paradis added. Among those he listed are: • Clubs and programs • Bend Area Transit passes • Events supporting clubs • Their own events (free bowling) • Food pantry and gift baskets at holidays • Salaries for council members “In prior years,” he wrote, “they have also used money for help with child care subsidies and on-campus health care.”

That all sounds good, but The Broadside, which itself is supported by student fees allocated by ASCOCC, began questioning expenditures that seemed to not meet any of these worthy definitions.

It questioned trips that members of the student government took, ASCOCC donations to the COCC bond campaign, and what the newspaper saw as favoritism to friends and supporters.

The student newspaper had its own shortcomings, including what some thought was a seriously flawed editorial.

ASCOCC hired a lawyer, Greg Lynch of Miller, Nash LLP, of Bend, and a public relations consultant, India Simmons, the same consultant who advised the college on its successful bond campaign.

From here the spiral ascends, or descends, depending on your point of view.

Granted, the college is making an effort, finally, to get this demon back in its cage, but in the meantime ASCOCC has spent, according to The Broadside, $56,000 on its public relations consultant and attorney, who has threatened to sue the newspaper over another editorial.

ASCOCC also started another student journal, funded by student fees.

Altogether, according to college officials, these actions now imperil the ASCOCC budget and the very worthy programs the fees are supposed to support.

And in the end, ironically, the college appears to be agreeing with the central thrust of The Broadside’s continued reporting — that the spending of the student fees has been out of control.

There are new student government elections coming up, and a new constitution guiding ASCOCC. That’s the good news.

A killer in their midst Were Pakistani officials really unaware that Osama bin Laden was living among them?

By Trudy Rubin The Philadelphia Inquirer here is something surreal about Paki-

T

stani officials’ reaction to the killing of Osama bin Laden. Their focus has

been wholly on the violation of Pakistan’s sovereignty by the U.S. raid, rather than the fact that bin Laden was living well in their country. The army chief, Gen. Ashfaq Parvez Kayani, warned he would not tolerate any repeat of such covert action; the country’s foreign secretary, Salman Bashir, said any similar attack could lead to “terrible consequences.”

“No self-respecting nation would compromise or allow others to compromise its sovereignty,” Bashir insisted. But how could any self-respecting nation allow the world’s top terrorist — a foreigner — to operate out of its heartland? How could any self-respecting state permit the leader of al-Qaida — a group composed of Arabs, Uzbeks and Chechens — to base in their country?

Unless Pakistani officials address these questions head-on, they are heading for terrible consequences. They are risking not just their relationship with the United States but their country’s future existence as well.

Zap Merkley’s car charging bill

U

.S. Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., is right about one thing.

This nation is too dependent on foreign oil. His latest attempt to correct the problem misses the mark.

Merkley wants Uncle Sam to give away some $3 billion to communities around the country so they can create charging stations for electric cars, in a project that would cost the government over five years. Merkley’s bill also creates a competitive grant process for companies to electrify their fleets and make it easier for the federal government to acquire more electric vehicles. This version of the bill comes in with a price that’s a billion dollars less than the bill Merkley proposed last year.

That’s still too much, however, and Merkley and the measure’s co-sponsor, Lamar Alexander, R-Tenn., recognize that. Because they have been unable to find corresponding budget cuts to pay for the program, they’re asking for authorization only, in effect telling the Department of Energy to put the program into effect if the money shows up.

There’s no doubt about the nation’s dependence on foreign oil, unfortunately. In March, the country spent nearly $40 billion on oil imports. That was an 18 percent increase over February and about as much as the country has spent on fuel in three years. About a third of that oil was used to fuel our cars, trucks and buses. Even without the near-record fuel prices, that’s a lot of oil coming from somewhere else.

“With gas prices again surging, every American understands all too well the price we pay for our addiction to imported oil,” Merkley said.

“A third of all oil is burned in cars, so the rapid deployment of electric vehicles can be a major tool in breaking that addiction. We win three ways: by strengthening our national security; by keeping our energy dollars at home creating American jobs; and by improving our environment.”

We also lose in an important way,

At a time when the nation’s budget deficits are measured in the trillions of dollars, when the country must raise its debt ceiling or default on the loans it’s been extended by creditors, the notion of spending $3 billion to build electric charging stations simply does not make sense. by spending $3 billion that the country does not have.

While electric cars might be a reasonable alternative in places like Portland, Berkeley and Seattle, they’re unlikely to catch on in regions like Eastern Oregon. Destinations are simply too far apart for a car with a 35-mile range, as Chevrolet’s Volt has, to make sense. With that short range, a person would have trouble driving from south Bend to Redmond, doing a bit of business and coming home again without plugging in somewhere.

Just imagine what the highway would have to look like to plan an electricitypowered trip to Burns.

There may be a chicken-and-egg component to solving the foreign fuel dependency program, as Merkley suggests. No doubt relative ease of use would persuade some to trade in their hybrids or gasoline vehicles for allelectric cars. But at a time when the nation’s budget deficits are measured in the trillions of dollars, when the country must raise its debt ceiling or default on the loans it’s been extended by creditors, the notion of spending $3 billion to build electric charging stations simply does not make sense.

My Nickel’s Worth Vote yes on Bend road bond Yes, in the past some poor decisions were made by city leaders. A few of those are not in those positions today.

The real questions regarding the road bond, in my opinion, are: 1) Do we pay for necessary infrastructure now at lower cost, or 2) Do we wait and pay later?

I fully support the upcoming bond.

Anything else is masochistic!

Margaret Holman Bend

Vote no on Bend road bond We are asked to vote for road improvements, but how much are they improved and at what cost? How do you ease traffic congestion on Reed Market by replacing a two-traffic-lane road with a two-traffic-lane road? Reed Market needs to be four traffic lanes. Why spend $3 million on each traffic circle when $2,500 in stop signs will solve the problems on those intersections for several years or for good? We spend big money on traffic circles that could be allotted to repairing streets where there is more need.

We waste millions on incorrect handicap ramps and no one takes the blame.

Why are we replacing a perfectly good stoplight system at 3rd and Revere with one very similar?

We “cheap” seal (chip seal) 1-year-old pavement and ruin the surface: witness East 4th Street between Greenwood and Revere, Olney between 4th and 8th, Empire between Boyd Acres and Purcell, West 9th between Portland to

Trenton and 12th on to Summit. These roads, done just last August, are a deteriorating mess. Chip seal is an archaic method of improving dirt roads that goes back to the 1920s and should be retired because it is a waste of money.

Governments from city to county to state to federal are having financial problems and a lot of those problems could be relieved by common sense, intelligent planning. Vote no. Replan this ill-conceived road improvement plan, shake out the waste and do the common sense improvements. I’ll vote for it then.

Cary Robles Bend

McCullough for Redmond schools As someone who has worked in the Central Oregon schools for the past 6 years (as a volunteer and a substitute teacher), I believe Luke McCullough would be an ideal addition to Redmond’s school board. First of all, his roots are here in Central Oregon, as well as his future. He has three children about to enter the Redmond school system, which gives him a vested interest in seeing our schools succeed.

But more importantly, as a teacher, I believe in his commitment to helping my fellow educators navigate these rough times. I have found it frustrating in the past that when budgets are tight, teachers end up bearing increasingly heavier burdens, and oftentimes, more than their fair share of the public’s criticism. Central Oregon is blessed with an abundance of outstanding teachers, each of them struggling to keep up with

the demands of long work hours, low pay, increasing workloads, larger class sizes, limited or nonexistent prep time and lack of job security. It is unlikely that these conditions will improve anytime soon due to our nation’s current economic state, and therefore, the solutions we need must come from building relationships between our educators and community members, as well as creating a strong base of community support and involvement.

Luke McCullough understands this.

He understands that supporting our teachers goes hand in hand with supporting the children of our community.

He is truly committed to the success of Redmond’s youth. Please support him with your vote!

Yancy Wilkenfeldt Redmond

Rodby for Redmond schools I am writing in support of Paul Rodby for re-election to the Redmond School District board of directors.

I have served on the Redmond 2J Foundation Board and the school district budget committee with Paul for many years, and know well his dedication to Redmond and its youth.

Particularly in these difficult budgetary times, we need knowledge and experience helping to guide the school district. We can’t ask for more than what Paul brings to the job.

First of all, please vote, and next, make that vote for Paul Rodby.

Bend schools’ plan for giving out bonuses is a good one

By Mike and Fran Bush Bulletin guest columnists

T

he editorial titled “Only the best teachers should receive bonuses” is one more attempt to startle the public by an eye-catching headline and a poorly written article with not enough facts to understand the experiment that is taking place, nor the process of teaching and learning.

Although I’m not a resident of Bend School District, I am often irked at The Bulletin’s desire to jump on the public school system as the social ill of all problems facing our nation. The story should have been presented as a news story in the paper with more factual information about the process before jumping to conclusions that poor teachers are being given bonuses!

Superintendent Ron Wilkinson understands the process of educating children and the art of teaching when he indicated in his e-mail that the district needs several years of data and “we believe it is the team unit that shares re-

sponsibility for student progress so we do not expect trying to go beyond team VAMS ...” in the April 25th editorial.

Giving individual members of a team a bonus will not improve the team performance according to W.E. Deming in his book “Out of the Crisis.” Deming cited fear as a consequence of not supporting all the workers, and in this case, teachers and children equally. I am not a teacher, mom or a grandma who wants her students or any child to be subjected to a teacher who is working under the pressure of fear of failure, which is the result of individual bonuses in a group-effort setting. Instituting education on the job, mentoring, improving leadership in management (principals), and dividing teachers into teams, K-2,3-5,6-8, or whatever natural configuration schools now have, and given time, is certainly a more productive way to “grow” education and thus educate children.

Deming also suggests “creating a constancy of purpose toward improve-

IN MY VIEW ment of product and service to become competitive … .” So far, the state of Oregon has deemed that the improvement should be measured by a statewide test.

This test definitely should not be the end-all measure of student growth or a teacher’s worth. Unfortunately, the result has been that teachers spend most of the year teaching concepts that are presented on the tests. These concepts are but a blip on the screen of all the possibilities of learning, whether it be factual or effective learning. It’s a snapshot on a particular test day of some of the learning that takes place in public classrooms. One can only hope that your child’s teacher has become so creative in presenting the lessons for testing that the child is able to develop good thinking skills as well as the facts. Teaching to develop good thinking skills should be the highest priority in teaching.

Teachers who work together in small

groups to build a strong continuity of teaching skills using myriad methods to reach children have the best success.

Teachers within the small group know what the teaching goal is, work to find ways to reach all learners and cooperate to give the best learning opportunities to all children. If the teachers are competing for bonuses, cooperation goes out the window.

Teachers want children to learn and they spend hours past the clock figuring out how that is best accomplished. So if one teacher in that group has students with higher test scores than another, does that team member get the bonus?

Not if that teacher expects to work with that team next year! That team will become contentious as each individual fights for a bonus.

Instead, Deming suggests that companies should institute leadership.

That’s different from management. As captain of the ship, a principal should be a strong leader, among all the many other different job descriptions. Good

teachers ask for strong leadership, and good principals spend time helping teachers find curricula that may match a particular style of learning, or work with parents to see that their children are in school and their learning styles are met in the most expedient manner.

Leadership in education starts at the top and incorporates the teaching concerns of teachers.

As Deming asserts in his book, “no peg is exactly round,” and that is certainly true of all students and teachers, but working together, they can produce wonderful change. Wouldn’t it be wonderful to give bonuses to the “team,” who in turn are allowed to buy extra curriculum aids or books for the whole school?

Despite the experiment outcome, doesn’t it seem feasible to hire principals who lead and inspire and teachers who work together for the best of all children? In that manner, we will accomplish the mission of public education.

O Tough times for radical Islam O

sama bin Laden is dead. The Middle East is in chaos. And radical Islam is floundering For a time after 9/11, bin Laden was riding high. Destroying 16 acres in Manhattan and hitting the Pentagon won alQaeda even more admiration from the Arab Street, hidden cash donations from sympathetic petrol-sheiks, and bribe and hush money from triangulating Middle East dictatorships.

But now bin Laden and most of his henchmen of a decade ago are dead, like the bloodthirsty Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, killed by American forces in Iraq.

Or they were captured, like the 9/11 architect Khalid Sheikh Mohammed in Pakistan. Or they are in hiding, like Dr. Ayman al-Zawahiri, the increasingly irrelevant blowhard al-Qaeda information minister.

What caused al-Qaeda’s steady decline? There are a lot of reasons.

Right after 9/11, the United States crafted a set of antiterrorism protocols as sweeping as they were controversial: the Patriot Act, Guantanamo Bay, renditions, tribunals, preventative detention, intercepts, wiretaps and enhanced interrogations. New security measures filtered down to every facet of American life, from radically intrusive and unpopular airport protocols that X-rayed baggage and passengers to beefed-up security on trains and at ports.

Civil libertarians mocked such vigi-

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON lance, but the message went out that it was now much harder to come to America from the Middle East and in anonymity plan another 9/11. Subsequent terrorist attempts, aimed at targets such as the Brooklyn Bridge and Times Square, either failed or were thwarted before they began.

In wars abroad, thousands of radical Islamic jihadists heeded bin Laden’s call to arms and flocked to the Hindu Kush and Anbar Province. The United States military and its allies were waiting, and then killed or wounded many thousands of terrorists and insurgents. That indisputable fact is as little remarked upon as it was critical to weakening and discrediting the martial prowess of radical Islam.

We also forget that the removal of Saddam Hussein, followed by his trial and execution by a democratically elected Iraq government, set off initial ripples of change in the Middle East between 2004 and 2006. The Syrian army was pushed out of Lebanon by popular protests. Muammar Gadhafi surrendered his nuclear weapons and publicly wor-

ried about his own future. Pakistan abruptly arrested for a time A.Q. Khan, who had franchised his nuclear weapons expertise.

These events did not lead directly to the current popular protests throughout the Middle East, but they may well have been precursors of a sort, once Iraq’s elected government survived and the violence there abated.

But there is a final development that caused headaches for radical Islam — the end of the American hysteria over the legality and morality of its own antiterrorism measures.

Although candidate Barack Obama was elected as the anti-Bush who promised to repeal the Bush protocols and end the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, President Obama did no such thing.

He continued the Bush-Petraeus withdrawal plan in Iraq. He escalated in Afghanistan. He kept all the antiterrorism measures that he had once derided. And he expanded the Predator drone assassination missions fivefold, while sending commandos inside Pakistan to kill — not capture and put on trial — bin Laden. He ignored most recommendations from Attorney General Eric Holder and guessed rightly that his own left-wing base would keep largely quiet.

The effect was twofold. America kept up the pressure on terrorists and their supporters. And the liberal opposition to our antiterrorist policies simply evapo-

rated once Obama became commander in chief.

Some who once protested the removal of Saddam lauded the efforts to do the same to Gadhafi. Those who once sued on behalf of detainees at Guantanamo joined the government to ensure the Predator drone targeted-killing program continued.

The chances in 2012 that the buffoonish Michael Moore — who once praised the Iraqi insurgents — will be again feted as a guest of honor at the Democratic National Convention, as he was in 2004, or that Cindy Sheehan will grab headlines once again, are zero.

Polls show that Obama’s America is still just as unpopular among Middle Easterners as it was under George W. Bush. But now a much different media assumes that the problem is theirs, not America’s. In this brave new world, the American liberal community is now invested in the continuance of the once-despised Bush antiterrorism program and the projection of force abroad — and has little sympathy for foreign criticism of an American president.

Quite simply, bin Laden’s world of 2001 no longer exists. That’s mostly good for us, but quite bad for the dead terrorist’s followers.

F

who has been neither charged nor convicted in any U.S. court.

Imagine the outrage, the protests, the furious op-eds about right-wing tyranny and neoconservative overreach. Imagine all that, and then look at the reality. For most Democrats, what was considered creeping fascism under Bush is just good old-fashioned common sense when the president has a “D” beside his name.

There is good news for the country in this turnabout. Having one of their own in the White House has forced Democrats to walk in the Bush administration’s shoes, and appreciate its dilemmas and decisions. To some extent, the Bush-Obama convergence is a sign that the Democratic Party is growing up, putting away certain fond illusions, and accepting its share of responsibility for the messy realities of the post-9/11 world.

It’s a good thing, for instance, that Obama has slow-walked the American withdrawal from Iraq, and it’s a sign of political maturity that his base hasn’t punished him for doing so. It’s a very good thing that many Democrats seem willing to opt for frontier justice over procedural justice when the circumstances call for it — as they did in Abbottabad.

But there are dangers in this turnabout as well. Now that Democrats have learned to stop worrying and embrace the imperial presidency, the United States lacks a strong institutional check

on the tendency toward executive hubris and wartime overreach. The speed with which many once-dovish liberals rallied behind the Libyan war — at best a gamble, at worst a folly — was revealing and depressing. The absence of any sustained outcry over the White House’s willingness to assassinate American citizens without trial should be equally disquieting.

The next president won’t have that luxury. In one form or another, the war on terror is likely to continue long after Osama bin Laden’s bones have turned to coral. But we’ll know that the BushObama era is officially over when somebody presents us with the bill.

Boehner delivers a dose of economic unreality

T

he news out of House Speaker John Boehner’s speech to the New York Economic Club was his demand for “cuts of trillions, not just billions” before the debt ceiling can be raised. Not just broad deficit-reduction targets, the Ohio Republican insisted, but “actual cuts and program reforms.”

That’s alarming enough. It is all but impossible to get this done in the available time. It certainly can’t be accomplished on Boehner’s unbending, no-new-taxes terms. And if the speaker truly believes that it would be “more irresponsible” to raise the debt ceiling without instituting deficit-reduction measures than not to raise it at all, we’re in a heap of trouble.

Even more alarming, because it has consequences beyond the debt ceiling debate, is the incoherent, impervious-tofacts economic philosophy undergirding Boehner’s remarks.

Reporters naturally tend to ignore this boilerplate. Journalistically, that makes sense. Boehner’s economic comments were nothing particularly new. Indeed, they reflect what has become the mainstream thinking of the Republican Party.

But that’s exactly the point. We become so inured to hearing this thinking that we neglect to point out how wrong it is.

My argument with Boehner is not that he believes in a more limited role for government than I do, that he is more skepti-

RUTH MARCUS cal of government intervention and regulation, or that he is more worried about the economically stifling implications of tax increases. Those are legitimate ideological differences.

I’m talking about statements that are simply false.

“The recent stimulus spending binge hurt our economy and hampered private-sector job creation in America.”

Reasonable economists can disagree about the effectiveness of the stimulus spending and whether it was worth the drag of the additional debt, but no reasonable economist argues that it hurt the economy in the short term.

The Congressional Budget Office estimates the stimulus added, on average, about one percentage point annually to economic growth and reduced the unemployment rate by half a point between 2009 and 2011. And that’s the low-end estimate. The high-end numbers show the stimulus spending adding 2.7 percentage points annually to economic growth and cutting the unemployment rate by 1.2

points.

CBO is not alone. Economists Alan Blinder and Mark Zandi estimated in a July 2010 paper that without the stimulus spending, the unemployment rate would be 1.5 percentage points higher. ”The massive borrowing and spending by the Treasury Department crowded out private investment by American businesses of all sizes.”

Crowding out occurs when government spending drives up interest rates and makes borrowing unattractive to the private sector. As economist Joseph Minarik of the Committee for Economic Development explains, “When interest rates are on the floor, you can’t say federal government borrowing is crowding out business investment.” The lackluster investment climate reflects low consumer demand and underutilized capacity.

“The truth is we will never balance the budget and rid our children of debt unless we cut spending and have real economic growth. And we will never have real economic growth if we raise taxes on those in America who create jobs.”

Never? Under President Clinton, taxes were raised, primarily on the wealthy.

During the eight years of his administration, the economy grew by an average of close to 4 percent.

“I ran for Congress in 1990, the year our nation’s leaders struck a so-called

S

bargain that raised taxes as part of a bipartisan plan to balance the budget. The result of that so-called bargain was the recession of the early 1990s. It wasn’t until the economy picked back up toward the end of that decade that we achieved a balanced budget.”

Boehner blames the budget deal for tanking the economy, but the recession actually started in July 1990, two months before the agreement was reached.

“A tax hike would wreak havoc not only on our economy’s ability to create private-sector jobs, but also on our ability to tackle the national debt.”

During the early 1980s, taxes were cut and public debt ballooned, from 26 percent of GDP in 1980 to 40 percent by 1986. In 1993, taxes were increased (and spending cut); debt as a share of the economy fell, from 49 percent to 33 percent.

In 2001 and 2003, taxes were cut. By the time President Obama took office, debt had climbed to 40 percent of GDP. Listening to Boehner, I began to think the country suffers from two deficits: the gap between spending and revenue, and the one between reality and ideology. The first cannot be solved unless we find some way of at least narrowing the second.

Bad bargains in Pakistan, Saudi Arabia o Osama bin Laden was living in a specially built villa in Pakistan.

I wonder where he got the money to buy it? Cashed in his Saudi 401(k)? A Pakistani subprime mortgage, perhaps?

No. I suspect we will find that it all came from the same place most of al-Qaida’s funds come from: some combination of private Saudi donations spent under the watchful eye of the Pakistani army.

Why should we care? Because this is the heart of the matter; that’s why. It was both just and strategically vital that we killed bin Laden, who inspired 9/11. I just wish it were as easy to eliminate the two bad bargains that really made that attack possible, funded it and provided the key plotters and foot soldiers who carried it out. We are talking about the ruling bargains in Saudi Arabia and Pakistan, which are alive and well.

The Saudi ruling bargain is an old partnership between the al-Saud tribe and the Wahhabi religious sect. The al-Saud tribe get to stay in power and live however they want behind their palace walls, and, in return, the followers of the Wahhabi sect get to control the country’s religious mores, mosques and education system.

The Wahhabis bless the Saudi regime with legitimacy in the absence of any elections, and the regime blesses them with money and a free hand on religion.

The only downside is that this system ensures a steady supply of “sitting-around guys” — young Saudi males who have nothing other than religious education and no skills to compete — who then get recruited to become 9/11-style hijackers and suicide bombers in Iraq.

No one explains it better than the Saudi writer Mai Yamani, author of “Cradle of Islam” and the daughter of Saudi Arabia’s former oil minister. “Despite the decade of the West’s war on terror, and Saudi Arabia’s longer-term alliance with the United States, the kingdom’s Wahhabi religious establishment has continued to bankroll Islamic extremist ideologies around the world,” wrote Yamani in The Daily Star of Beirut, Lebanon.

“Bin Laden, born, raised and educated in Saudi Arabia, is a product of this pervasive ideology,” she added. “He was no religious innovator; he was a product of Wahhabism ... Not surprisingly, the creation of a transnational Islamic political movement, boosted by thousands of underground jihadist websites, has blown back into the kingdom. Like the hijackers of 9/11, who were also Saudi-Wahhabi ideological exports Saudi Arabia’s reserve army of potential terrorists remains, because the Wahhabi factory of fanatical ideas remains intact. So the real battle has not been with bin Laden, but with that Saudi state-supported ideology factory.”

Ditto Pakistan. The Pakistani ruling bargain is set by the Pakistani army and says: We let you civilians pretend to rule, but we will actually call all the key shots, we will consume nearly 25 percent of the state budget and we will justify all of this as necessary for Pakistan to confront its real security challenge: India and its occupation of Kashmir. Looking for bin Laden became a side business for Pakistan’s military to generate U.S. aid.

As the al-Qaida expert Lawrence Wright observed in The New Yorker: Pakistan’s army and intelligence service “were in the looking-for-bin-Laden business, and if they found him they’d be out of business.” Since 9/11, Wright added, “the U.S. had given $11 billion to Pakistan, the bulk of it in military aid, much of which was misappropriated to buy weapons to defend against India.”

What both countries need is shock therapy. For Pakistan, that would mean America’s converting the lion’s share of its military aid to K-12 education programs, while also reducing the U.S. footprint in Afghanistan. Together, the message would be that we’re ready to help Pakistan fight its real enemies and ours — ignorance, illiteracy, corrupt elites and religious obscurantism — but we have no interest in being dupes for the nonsense that Pakistan is threatened by India and therefore needs “strategic depth” in Afghanistan and allies among the Taliban.

Ditto Saudi Arabia. We are in a ménage à trois with the al-Sauds and the Wahhabis. We provide the al-Sauds security, and they provide us oil. The Wahhabis provide the al-Sauds with legitimacy and the al-Sauds provide them with money (from us). It works really well for the al-Sauds, but not too well for us. The only way out is a new U.S. energy policy, which neither party is proposing.

Hence, my conclusion: We are surely safer with bin Laden dead, but no one will be safe without different ruling bargains in Islamabad and Riyadh.

Whose foreign policy is it, anyway? or those with eyes to see, the daylight between the foreign policies of George W. Bush and Barack Obama has been shrinking ever since the current president took the oath of office. But last week made it official: When the story of America’s post-9/11 wars is written, historians will be obliged to assess the two administrations together, and pass judgment on the Bush-Obama era.

The death of Osama bin Laden, in a raid that operationalized Bush’s famous “dead or alive” dictum, offered the most visible proof of this continuity. But the more important evidence of the BushObama convergence lay elsewhere, in recent developments that didn’t merit screaming headlines, because they seemed routine rather than remarkable.

One was NATO’s continuing bombing campaign in Libya, which now barely even pretends to be confined to humanitarian objectives, or to be bound by the letter of the U.N. resolution. Another was a Predator strike inside Pakistan’s tribal regions, which killed a group of suspected militants while the world’s attention was still fixed on bin Laden’s final hours.

Another was the American missile that just missed killing Anwar al-Awlaki, an American-born cleric who has emerged as a key recruiter for al-Qaida’s Yemen affiliate.

Imagine, for a moment, that these were George W. Bush’s policies at work.

A quest for regime change in Libya, conducted without even a pro forma request for congressional approval. A campaign of remote-controlled airstrikes, in which collateral damage is inevitable, carried out inside a country where we are not officially at war. A policy of targeted assassination against an American citizen

An American family, Nazis and questions about history

By Mary Ann Gwinn The Seattle Times

SEATTLE — The weeks leading up to a book’s publication can be hard on an author. Will the books get to the booksellers? Will the cover come out right-side-up?

Will people buy it? Will they read it? Will they like it?

Erik Larson is as well-known and well-read as any Seattle author — his 2003 book, “The Devil in the White City,” the story of a serial murderer who preyed on the margins of the 1893 Chicago World’s Fair, was one of the more successful nonfiction books of the late 20th century.

But Larson is not immune from opening-night jitters: Earlier this year he wrote on his blog about what it was like to wait for his new book, “In the Garden of Beasts,” to come out: “We look for signs that our books will fly off the shelves and be loved by readers everywhere.”

When the book arrives, it’s “a terrifying moment, in a way. It’s my baby, and I need to make sure it has all its fingers and toes. Is my name spelled correctly? Is there some obvious flaw?”

“In the Garden of Beasts” landed in bookstores Tuesday. It’s the true-life story of the Dodds, an American family that lived through a nightmare time in Nazi

Germany during the years 193334. Over a cup of tea in his home — and later via email — Larson answered questions about how he became enmeshed in the subject of Nazi Germany during those pivotal years: Did you want to write about the Dodds, or the period they lived through? How did you find them?

It was five, six years ago. I was hard up for an idea — I’m always hard up for an idea, until I get one. I was browsing the history section at the Barnes & Noble.

I bought “The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich”

by William Shirer with some trepidation — it is quite long (1,264 pages). Shirer was in Berlin in the 1930s as a radio correspondent. Reading and realizing that he’d been there, I thought: What would it have been like to go to a party and meet (Nazi leader Hermann) Goering?

Then I came across William E. Dodd’s diary at Suzzallo Library (at the University of Washington).

I found Martha’s (Dodd’s daughter) memoir, and Bella Fromm’s (a Jewish journalist who eventually fled Germany). I wondered: How does a culture slip its moorings, to go from the freewheeling Weimar culture to this dark, claustrophobic regime? Why did it take so long for people to take on Hitler?

Q:

A:

Q:

What drew you to Dodd, a University of Chicago historian who wound up as the American ambassador to Nazi Germany?

I liked the fact that Dodd was a completely unlikely candidate for his position. ... He wanted this cush job so he could write his damned book. He wanted to free himself from the demands of academia. I sensed his pain.

You’ve said that part of your interest in this time stems from your concern with civil liberties in our own country. Can you elaborate?

My sole reason for writing this book was to answer the question, what would it have been like to have lived in Berlin during that first year of Hitler’s rule? ... I saw it as kind of a horror story, or very dark Grimm Brothers fairy tale — two innocents go into the dark wood and lose their way. Or something like the original “Invasion of the Body Snatchers” movie, where the town physician returns to find everything changed, albeit in subtle ways.

But part of the context in which I conceived the idea was my concern about what seemed to me to be a drift away from such bedrock civics-course liberties as the right to confront one’s accuser, the right to a speedy trial and so forth.

I wasn’t deeply worried, just vaguely unsettled by it all.

A:

Q: A:

Given that his previous two books had featured grisly murders and the twisted men committing them, Erik Larson’s “In the Garden of Beasts” — chronicling the early days of the homicidal Nazi regime — would seem to be right in his wheelhouse.

But Larson admits in an afterword that “living among Nazis day in, day out proved for me a uniquely trying experience.” “I did not realize,” he writes, “how much the darkness would infiltrate my own soul.”

Larson’s chosen angle on this oft-told story — U.S. Ambassador William E. Dodd, during his first year in Berlin — couldn’t have done much to improve his mood.

Dodd was a history professor who became Roosevelt’s first ambassador to Germany.

When he arrived in Berlin in July 1933, American citizens were routinely being attacked, often because they were Jewish or because they refused to return the Nazi salute. Jews and political prisoners were already being tortured and murdered.

But as Larson demonstrates, Dodd’s career as a student of comparatively rational actors left him ill-

equipped to see how bad things had become.

Not that the professional American diplomats were doing much better. Most of them didn’t take Hitler seriously. Many of them, including Dodd, were anti-Semitic.

It’s hard to read about Dodd complaining that there were too many Jews on his staff or telling Germany’s foreign minister that Jews in the U.S. “had gotten too much of a hold on certain departments of intellectual and business life.”

Dodd’s 24-year-old daughter, Martha, was worse, writing that “we sort of don’t like the Jews anyway” and that she “‘Heiled’ as vigorously as any Nazi.”

Larson justifies giving Martha a huge portion of his book by claiming that she is “the perfect lens through which to view the times.” It’s hard to see why; she comes across as a flighty nymphomaniac.

Fast-paced and filled with deft sketches, telling anecdotes and secret assignations, “In the Garden of Beasts” successfully gives us history as noir.

But in detailing the Nazis’ lurid crimes, Larson has missed a chance to say more about the nature of the criminals themselves — as well as the many abettors who failed to do more to stop them before it was too late.

Thinking of naming your little darling Emma or Isabella?

You may want to consider alternatives.

“Beatrice, Adelaide and Mathilde are not as popular, but they’re in the same tone and style,” said Jennifer Griffin, author of the new book “Bring Back Beatrice! 1,108 Baby Names with Meaning, Character and a Little Bit of Attitude” (Griffin, $10.95). “That makes them great choices.”

Among the advantages of going with a name that’s classic but unexpected: Your daughter won’t have to spend her childhood as Emma R. or “Bella from ballet class.”

Griffin, who has a son named Luke and a daughter, Josephine, has penned a funny, useful, unapologetically opinionated book in which she advises against supertrendy names such as Madison, creatively spelled names and “Frankennames” such as Jayden (Jason meets Aiden).

She also offers more than 1,000 names from a range of cultures, most of which she believes will stand the test of time.

Among the names that make the cut: Claudia, Maeve, Zara and Kali for girls, and Micah, Rhys, Silas and Terrell for boys.

“People feel, ‘Oh! Naming children, it’s my way of subjecting others to my thoughts,’” Griffin said. “I think they think less about the children and more about themselves.”

Tale captures struggles of teen coping with parents’ divorce “What Happened to Goodbye”

by Sarah Dessen (Viking, 416 pgs., $19.99)

By Susan Carpenter Los Angeles Times

Sarah Dessen is something of a rock star in young adult fiction. Her bestselling coming-of-age novels are warmly written explorations of teens in transition that are, by turns, questioning, humorous and hopeful.

With her 10th novel, “What Happened to Goodbye,” Dessen continues to mine the teen psyche, following high schooler Mclean Sweet from town to town with her father.

Mclean was a “normal girl in a normal town” until her parents divorced in a scandalous breakup prompted by her mother, who fell for a famous basketball coach and promptly gave birth to twins.

Custody arrangements placed Mclean with her father, a consultant for a restaurant conglomerate who hops around the South, settling into towns for no more than a few months at a time as he works to turn around troubled eateries. But the wounds of divorce run deep. Three years of switching home bases so frequently have only added to Mclean’s hesitation to trust.

In this tale of self-identity and, ultimately, acceptance, removing the girl from where she was hurt doesn’t get rid of the hurt, but that doesn’t stop Mclean from trying.

Feeling “unformed, like a cake half-baked with edges crisp, but still mushy in the middle,” Mclean takes advantage of her on-the-go lifestyle.

Instead of being herself, and making herself vulnerable, she’s tried on a different identity with each new town she and her dad have moved to.

Tall and blond, with “cornfed” good looks she inherited from her Southern belle of a mother, she’s had no difficulty falling in with the jocks and “rah-rahs,” drama mamas and the student council.

She’s even tried on different names.

But when Mclean moves to the town of Lakeview, something is different. For a change, Mclean decides to be Mclean.

She does this with the help of a boy, of course, and another outsider girl — both of whom avoid the usual cliches for such characters. Unlike other writers of realistic teen fiction, Dessen opts out of the usual traps presented by mean girls and by popular guys who are only after sex.

Dessen takes a refreshing, hormone-free higher road that stays focused on Mclean’s emotional growth while incorporating details that remain true to modern adolescence.

Avast! It’s yo-ho-ho Pulitzer winner takes new and a bottle of Disney ‘A VISIT FROM THE GOON SQUAD’

trajectory with sleeper hit

By Carolyn Kellogg Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — Jennifer Egan was not built for the spotlight. “When I was a teenager, one of my sources of angst was that I felt like I was not an actor, I was always a spectator,” she said by phone from New York.

“Later, I realized that that’s just who I am. That’s actually my job.”

Lately, Egan has been much more than a spectator in her own life. Her novel “A Visit From the Goon Squad,” a fractured narrative about time and connection that stretches from 1970s punk rock San Francisco to a futuristic desert home, was recently awarded the Pulitzer Prize for fiction. Before that, it picked up a prize from the National Book Critics Circle.

And on April 29, it won the Los Angeles Times Book Prize for fiction.

“I thought the book would resonate most with people in their mid- to late 40s who are feeling the actual fact of time passing,” says Egan, 48. “I think the real surprise to me is that young people seem to respond to it.”

Ambitious storytelling Egan writes long-form journalism as well as books — a short-story collection and three other novels. They include “The Keep” (2006), a modern psychological gothic, which was a national bestseller, and “Look at Me” (2001), a finalist for the National Book Award.

But it’s “A Visit From the Goon Squad” that has been putting Egan front and center.

The book has been a sleeper hit — released last June, its reviews were strong but sales were low.

Yet it has endured; it returned to the L.A. Times bestseller list early this year. “I feel incredibly lucky and joyful,” Egan says of the book’s success.

The echoes of her life experiences surface in “Goon Squad” — struggling to find a place in a

Jennifer Egan is sometimes called an experimental writer, but isn’t sure that designation fits her. challenging city, a gritty apartment with the bathtub in the middle of the kitchen.

Sometimes called an experimental writer — a designation she isn’t sure fits — Egan is ambitious in her approach to storytelling. As with acclaimed British novelist David Mitchell, she uses structure to create surprising connections. She plays with form — one chapter in “Goon Squad” is written entirely in PowerPoint slides. Before she decided to try that, she’d never even used PowerPoint before.

Just as in her early New York days, she had to learn the program before getting to work.

A seminal experience Egan was born in Chicago to parents who divorced when she was 2 — “I don’t have any memories of them together,” she says — and at 7, she moved to San Francisco with her mother and stepfather, an investment banker. It was 1969. Egan’s family was separate from the counterculture, which she observed with unarticulated longing.

“I was really unhappy and uncertain of who I was, what I should be doing. I felt a compulsion to travel. I felt like I had seen nothing and done nothing,” she says. “Does anyone have an easy adolescence? I think mine was manifestly uneasy.” She worked for a year to earn the money to go to Europe, all on her own.

“I was only in Europe for seven weeks, maybe, but it felt like a lifetime,” she says. “I was struggling, and I think that always makes time seem to elongate.”

Although she was deeply moved by her experiences, she was also filled with a building anxiety. For a traveler in 1981, talking with someone back in America meant standing in line for a pay phone to make a collect call — and if no one was home, that was it. The extreme isolation led to panic attacks she couldn’t name. “I thought I was going crazy,” she says.

In her backpack, she carried a journal. “I wrote frenetically the entire time,” she says. “I came out of that understanding that I wanted to be a writer.”

Intuition and control When writing fiction, Egan blends deep intuition and careful control. “I don’t sit down and think, I’m going to write a book about X,” she says. “At the beginning, that first draft is unpremeditated, almost blind and intuitive.”

She often writes at home, sitting in the same chair, even drifting off to sleep. “There may be an overlap with dream life there,” she admits. “In a way, what I’m looking to do is release unconscious impulses and connections and leaps.”

After getting an English degree at the University of Pennsylvania, she got a scholarship to study at Cambridge in England, where she met fellow student David Herskovits in 1986.

“The Captain Jack Sparrow Handbook: A Swashbucker’s Guide from Disney’s ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’”

by Jason Heller (Quirk Books, 176 pgs., $18.95)

By Tish Wells McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Even before the first “Pirates of the Caribbean” movie, pirates were romantic.

Now, in “The Captain Jack Sparrow Handbook” Jason Heller brings you a guide to all things (Disney) pirate.

Piracy has been with us from the beginning of time. Julius Caesar was taken prisoner, ransomed and later crucified his capturers. The infamous Blackbeard looted ships in the eighteenth century. There was little attractive about pirates.

However, don’t let historical fact get in the way of the “Handbook.”

Written in a breezy fashion, the “Handbook” is thoroughly based in the world of Disney pirates. For example: “The legendary Elizabeth Swann became one of the greatest pirates in history. Pirates may be a loutish lot, but talent is talent, regardless of the package in which it is wrapped.”

Elizabeth Swann was a character in “Pirates of the Caribbean,” not a real female pirate like Anne Bonney or Mary Read.

The “Handbook” does have touches of realism: “A pirate’s life isn’t always so exotic.

Some days you’ll be seizing a plump, loot-laden galleon; other days you’ll be preempting an invasion by some uniformed do-gooders” such as the English captain who final-

ly cornered the historical pirate Blackbeard and came away with his decapitated head swinging from his bowsprint. (See page 53 for a ship diagram including a bowsprint.)

It’s loaded with helpful hints such as don’t stand behind a loaded cannon when it fires unless you want “to get yourself a peg leg. Or two.”

Learn to swim. “As undignified as it may seem, taking swimming lessons at a local recreation center or YMCA is an ideal way to sharpen your strokes in a safe, controlled environment free of sharks, cannonballs and sea monsters.”

As to authentic pirate stench: “Suffice it to say that pirates are a fragrant lot.” And not in the rosewater-and-cream sense.

Want to broaden the next generation’s vocabulary? In the “Handbook” you have a pirate lesson including “Bilge Rat,” “Scalawag” and of course, “Feculent Maggot” — “Feculent means ‘scummy’ in the particular sense of ‘soiled by biological waste material,’ and a maggot is, well, a maggot.”

Vintage Nora Roberts tale is worth another reading “Carnal Innocence”

by Nora Roberts (Bantam, 499 pgs., $7.99 )

By Lezlie Patterson McClatchy-Tribune News Service

This “vintage” Nora Roberts book is a few weeks away from premiering as a Lifetime network television movie, which makes this a good time to read, or re-read, the story.

Set in the Mississippi Delta, Roberts transports readers to a hot and muggy Deep South summer. You may find yourself reaching to dab perspiration (remember, ladies never sweat) from your brow and craving sweet iced tea.

Tucker is a different sort of romance hero. He has no problem with the world seeing him as a lazy playboy, content to spend his afternoons napping in a ham-

mock and his evenings seducing willing women. Tucker’s family has lived on the only plantation in the area for generations and his is currently the only wealthy family there.

Caroline is a world-renowned violinist, who comes to spend the summer in the home she inherited from her grandparents. She’s known there as Edith’s granddaughter, not as a musician who plays before sold-out concert halls.

Caroline doesn’t want to be attracted to Tucker, or be susceptible to his magnetic charms and handsome looks. Tucker doesn’t want to lose the freedom bachelorhood affords.

Neither gets their wish there, but find out sometimes you have to forget about old wishes for the most important dream to come true.

Turning Kafka’s masterpiece into a literary furball

Bin Laden Continued from F1

Intelligence issues No one believes the civilian government of President Asif Ali Zardari knew bin Laden was hiding in Abbottabad. And most experts doubt that Gen. Kayani, a square shooter, was aware of bin Laden’s location.

But few security experts familiar with Pakistan doubt that some agents in Pakistan’s Interservice Intelligence Agency (ISI) knew of bin Laden’s hideout. How could they not? He was living practically next door to Pakistan’s equivalent of West Point, in a city filled with serving and retired military personnel — a city where other top al-Qaida operatives had been captured.

If the fix wasn’t in, wouldn’t the ISI have been watching for unusual activities, especially since the mansion where bin Laden lived had already attracted attention? Wouldn’t ISI agents have checked out who lived there?

“Did they know he was here?

Surely, they knew he was here,” writes the astute Pakistani columnist Cyril Almeida in the Dawn newspaper. “Maybe they’re so daft they didn’t really take this whole business of alQaida seriously. Maybe they just didn’t think it was their problem.

“If we didn’t know, we are a failed state,” Almeida adds. “If we did know, we are a rogue state. But does anybody really believe they didn’t know?”

Relations with the U.S. Upon the answer to this question will depend the future of U.S.-Pakistani relations. This administration, particularly Adm. Mike Mullen, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs, has tried hard to build bonds of trust with Pakistani counterparts, including Kayani and ISI chief Ahmed Shuja Pasha.

But unless the ISI comes clean on bin Laden, it will be hard to deflect congressional pressure to cut military and civilian aid to Islamabad. It may become impossible for the two countries to cooperate on a political endgame for the Afghan war that will stabilize that country, as U.S. troops exit. Without such cooperation, Afghanistan faces

“The Meowmorphosis”

by Franz Kafka and Coleridge Cook (Quirk Books, 208 pgs., $12.95)

By Tish Wells McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Warrick Page / New York Times News Service

A Pakistani policeman stands outside the compound where Osama bin Laden was killed in Abottabad, Pakistan. Pakistani authorities have been bombarded with questions about their avowed ignorance of bin Laden’s presence on Pakistani soil.

“Did they know he was here? Surely, they knew he was here. Maybe they’re so daft they didn’t really take this whole business of al-Qaida seriously. Maybe they just didn’t think it was their problem. If we didn’t know, we are a failed state. If we did know, we are a rogue state.”

— Cyril Almeida, Pakistani columnist renewed civil war that will spill across the AfPak border. This would be a self-inflicted tragedy for Pakistan.

The U.S.-Pakistani relationship was already on a downhill slide because of Pakistani ire over an expanded CIA presence in their country. But this presence — which Pakistan wants to slash — would be unnecessary if the ISI was in vigorous pursuit of the leaders of al-Qaida and other hard-line terrorists on their soil.

Pakistani officials have taken on their own Taliban who threaten them. But they won’t confront Afghan Taliban or terrorist groups such as Lashkare-Taiba, whom they view as useful tools in their struggle with India. And they failed to find

bin Laden.

Assume they didn’t know where he was, that they were just incompetent (after all, the CIA has had big lapses). Why didn’t they try harder? “Maybe they just didn’t think it was their problem,” Almeida surmised in his column. Too true.

Looking for answers The Pakistani army and ISI are so obsessed with India that they can’t grasp the bigger threat within their own borders.

Their distinction between “good” terrorists who fight India and the West and bad ones who attack Pakistanis is reckless; these terrorists have links to each other, and allowing them

to flourish in Pakistan eats at the core of the state.

And what if — as most believe — some ISI agents were helping bin Laden? Why would they do it? As Almeida points out, “Pakistan has nothing in common with al-Qaida. They serve no purpose to us.

“Did we think we could produce him like a rabbit out of the hat when we needed to?” the columnist asks in frustration.

“Or, assured in our assumptions about the world around us, did we simply think we could get away with it?”

These are the questions Americans are asking, and Pakistanis should be asking, too.

We need the answers quickly.

“The best way to confront the situation is to come clean and tell people what is really happening,” I was told by retired Pakistani Gen. Talat Masood, by phone from Islamabad. Instead, Pakistani officials are “posturing,” doing damage control at home by focusing on the American incursion.

“This is a very dangerous way of deflecting the public’s attitude from the real problem,” Masood said. “Are they proposing to face the problem or not?

We need to know.”

Not even changing the cockroach into a kitten can help the latest literary mashup — “The Meowmorphosis”.

Coleridge Cook takes a well-written stab at Franz Kafka’s depressing novella “The Metamorphosis” and turns it into ... well, a slightly less gloomy tale.

Where Kafka turned his lead character, Gregor Samsa, into a beetle, Cook transforms him into an adorable fluffy kitten.

Kafka was an early 20thcentury Czech writer whose stories and novels explored the helplessness of the individual in the face of dehumanizing bureaucracies, and other topics.

In “The Metamorphosis” Samsa is a traveling salesman who awakens one morning to discover that he’s become an insect.

How Samsa’s transformation affects his life and his family is the core of the novella: No longer the family breadwinner, Samsa is now dependent on the relatives who depended on him — and who now discover their own independence of him.

In “The Meowmorphosis,” Samsa becomes a plump kitten.

His family’s reaction to his change —needless to say — is quite different.

In the original, Samsa tries to avoid upsetting his sister — his primary caregiver — by hiding under sheets and his bed.

In Cook’s version, the sister cuddles Samsa, brushes out his fur and gives him an attractive red collar which he loathes.

In the original, Samsa nev-

er leaves the family apartment.

In “The Meowmorphosis,” the kitten escapes out a window to explore the pleasures and dangers that come with being an alley cat in Prague.

Samsa is taken prisoner by the court of cats, tried and convicted of some unknown law-breaking action, then set free.

Here, Cook raids other Kafka classics — “The Trial” and “The Dream” for material with a feline twist: “As a warning that your smallest prancing step, the way you lift your adorable paws and wriggle your sweet little pink nose when you are afraid, reveals to me your entire life story, everything you could ever wish to keep secret and you can not help revealing these things to me, so truly you are entirely helpless in my power, and during your trial you will not be allowed to lie in any fashion, nor will you be able to, for I will see through it,” says Josef K, the leader of the cats to the confused Samsa.

While Cook does an admirable job of integrating the felines into the story, not even having a kitten as protagonist can give the book a happy ending.

When Samsa the kitten decides to return to his family, though debating the wisdom of his actions, the story descends back into the gloom of “The Metamorphosis.”

Increased appetite for local meat satisfying for Prineville processor Casey Berman, 34, in the freezer at Butcher Boys in Prineville with hanging half beefs. The Bermans are in the process of expanding their freezer capacity.

Ed Merriman The Bulletin

By Ed Merriman The Bulletin

Rising demand for locally grown produce, meat and other foods is boosting business for Central Oregon processors like Butcher Boys in Prineville.

Butcher Boys is one of just two USDA-certified meat slaughtering plants in Central Oregon and one of three in the entire state certified by the USDA to slaughter and process exotic animals, according to owner Don Berman.

Berman said Monday he is in the process of doubling his freezer capacity and hopes to have the project completed within two months to keep up with the increasing demand for beef, pork, lamb and goat, as well as exotic meats ranging from buffalo to elk, deer and yak raised by Central Oregon farmers and ranchers.

“We’re so busy people have to book way ahead,” Berman said. Berman recommends that his ranch clients schedule slaughtering two months in advance, especially if they plan to

have their animals butchered during the busy fall season when hunters are bringing in game.

Berman said he and his two sons, Lanny, 39, and Casey, 34, can slaughter about 25 head of cattle in a day.

The existing freezer holds around 350 hanging beef carcasses, and the new cooler will double their capacity.

“We have a market niche here.

Our customers are the people who do their own marketing,” said Casey Berman.

Sheri Tingey and shop dog Rosalee show off some her Alpacka rafts. Tingey’s company, located in tiny Mancos, Colo., specialize in handmade singleperson rafts that are light enough to be carried in a backpack.

Colo. firm redefines adventure Outdoor-lovers say this light raft is alright

By Jason Blevins The Denver Post

MANCOS, Colo. — Like knobby-tired mountain bikes and hardshell kayaks, Sheri Tingey’s Alpacka rafts have transformed the way people explore.

“They have completely changed the game,” said Steve Fassbinder, a Mancos athlete who had Tingey craft a custom raft to carry his bike and now pedals to remote rivers that he descends.

The 5-pound rafts, which cost $820, roll into a tube the size of a small tent and can easily float a 250-pound person with a 100pound pack. They are credited with opening vast swaths of wilderness to adventurers in Alaska, where Tingey first created her revolutionary raft a decade ago.

Today, from her home shop in Mancos in southwestern Colorado, Tingey and her nine employees hand-weld and constantly improve the virtually indestructible crafts that have created their own subculture of backpacking, known as packrafting.

A mingling of the light-isright backpacking culture with the much different whitewater culture, packrafting enables expedition-style adventures in the most remote areas of the planet.

Where travel previously was limited to relentless bushwhacking along tiny drainages incapable of floating traditional gear-laden crafts, Tingey’s Alpackas — as in “I’ll pack a …” — have become the exalted tool.

Deedy Whittington sorts through boxes of items for an upcoming estate sale. Whittington, of Deedy’s Estate Sales Co., has witnessed a shift away from antiques toward everyday household goods. “Newly married (people) can get everything they need from an estate sale,” she said.

Estate liquidation

By Jordan Novet The Bulletin

state liquidation — the selling of assets upon the death of a person or a move to a smaller place — is not a new phenomenon.

However, at least locally, some aspects of the old business are changing.

Two professional estate liquidators in Central Oregon — who assess value of possessions and determine whether they will sell most or all of it, for a percentage of the sales total — said antiques are no longer as popular as they once were. Instead, they said, in recent years many customers have been electing

to splurge first on everyday household goods.

“Newly married (people) can get everything they need from an estate sale,” said Deedy Whittington, who with her husband, Norm, runs Deedy’s Estate Sales Co. The Whittingtons’ operation, which calls for assistance from two other people in order to have an estate or moving sale almost every week, even in the coldweather months, is one of just a handful in Central Oregon. It’s not unusual for 100 people to be ready to enter one of their sales upon the grand opening, usually 9 a.m. on a Friday.

When a kidney stone had me writhing in pain a few months back, I did what a lot of people with medical ailments do: I headed straight to Google for help with a self-diagnosis.

In 0.18 of a second, Google led me to 1.9 million pieces of advice, both good and suspect. Drink plenty of water and try to tough it out, most websites said, and go to the doctor if it doesn’t go away. But among the search results were how-to articles like one saying that if I drank a few sips of tea brewed from ground celery seeds or corn silk, the stone would pass within hours. My laughter didn’t reduce the pain.

Ultimately, with the help of several quarts of water, the stone passed. But I learned one thing from the search results. While you get them very rapidly, they may not be all that useful and dependable.

It isn’t hard to see why. A considerable amount of human effort is spent gaming Google results. Practitioners of the art call it search engine optimization, or SEO, and it is used to move a retailer’s Web pages or a news organization’s articles to the top of the search results page.

LOS ANGELES — A postal clerk heading to work before dawn found a woman’s naked body in a gutter a few blocks from City Hall, a silk stocking tied tight around her neck. The year was 1947, and it had only been a few months since the infamous “Black Dahlia” murder nearby. The city was on edge. Was a serial killer at work?

The case was never solved. But now, 64 years later, Rosenda Mondragon’s murder will be repeated over and over in millions of living rooms and dormitory rooms, and perhaps, with some skill and ingenuity, solved, in a new video game, “L.A. Noire.”

Not literally, of course. The victim has been renamed Antonia Maldanado, “poor Hispanic woman, found dead at City Hall,” a lieutenant explains. And gruesome fictional embellishments abound, like the killer writing, “Kiss the Blood”

Search Continued from G1 Web pages are created specifically to fool Google’s search algorithm in order to get a higher ranking.

Over on Mechanical Turk, an online job clearinghouse run

by Amazon for employers looking for people to do small tasks for small amounts of money, a significant number of the listings are for people to aid in either some form of SEO or spam generation.

Google says it tweaks its pageranking algorithm regularly to fight the SEO experts, who frantically experiment to find a way to gain back the advantage, and the cat-and-mouse game continues.

The magnitude of this tit-fortat battle is stunning. Consider that by Google researchers’ own estimates, there are now more than a trillion Web pages. “There are not that many things in the world,” said Rich Skrenta, a Silicon Valley entrepreneur and programmer who, in a series of business ventures, has been trying to instill some order into the vast clutter of the Web. Skrenta has recently embarked on the daunting mission of developing a search engine that will compete with Google and its main competitor, Bing, Microsoft’s less-used but no less confounding entry in the field.

“The Web has become wrecked and links aren’t useful anymore,” Skrenta said. “It’s a hall of mirrors.”

One of the great innovations of Google, and the source of its wealth, was auctioning off search terms. But Skrenta contends that when Google assigned an economic value to links on a Web page, many pages filled with links that served only as bait for Google’s search engine.

That’s an important way to make money because that search engine drives so much of the Inter-

Blekko search engine aims to take on Google by having humans help rank its results.

How Blekko works Using Blekko takes a little more effort. It works the way Google or Bing does, but if you want cleaner search results you must type in a slash mark and a category. The company calls them slashtags. Typing “/conservative” after “taxes,” for instance, would give you sites written from the right; “/liberal” gives you the other side. Blekko also sorts results for financial advice or sports. And it has some rather esoteric experts who have edited results for “gluten free” and “material safety data sheets,” a category containing information on the properties of myriad substances. If someone tries to game the results, an expert presumably would block the efforts.

net’s traffic. Hundreds of billions of those kinds of pages were created with only one purpose, and that is to fool Google. A result is less useful searches for information.

It may sound like a stretch to take on an entrenched competitor that even a giant like Microsoft, after spending hundreds of millions of dollars, has barely been able to budge. But Skrenta has found investors to give him $25 million to try.

Plant your next garden with your smartphone

By Elizabeth Olson New York Times News Service

Whether it’s a piece of pipe or new kitchen cabinets, many Americans search for the right product in the aisles of home improvement stores like Home Depot or Lowe’s, trying to quickly identify what they need.

The big-box stores are introducing some help to provide customers with immediate information for their buying decisions. They are adding barcodes to certain products that give potential buyers on-the-spot access to product reviews and ratings, how-to guides and videos.

For now, garden plants sold at Home Depot and Lowe’s have barcodes on each plant tag that enable customers with smartphone scanners to check out whether the plant, for example, grows in low light or needs frequent watering.

This is the season when stores sell millions of garden plants.

At Lowe’s, for example, nursery sales, which also include trees and flowers, were 4 percent of the

chain’s total $48.8 billion sales in the fiscal year ended Jan. 28.

Chris Gerhard, a home gardener and real estate broker in San Antonio, says mobile barcodes have greatly improved her gardening outcomes.

“Those little plastic tags on plants always had minimal information,” she said of her purchases at her local Home Depot.

“Now, with the barcodes, you can scan them and figure out immediately what is going to grow in the sun, when to plant and how far apart to place plants.

“That’s great for me because in this climate you can fry things to a crisp, and I have. This helped me know exactly what would work on my front porch and back patio without wasting a lot of time and money.”

Home Depot also has placed codes on its outdoor patio sets and is running a 30-second barcode commercial nationwide on cable and network television.

It is also experimenting with newspaper circulars carrying barcodes that instantly link to a

video about its new line, Martha Stewart Living Kitchens.

In the video, Stewart discusses the various styles of kitchen cabinets, counters and other items that are available, and invites customers to make an in-store appointment with a Home Depot kitchen designer.

Tom Sweeney, director of online strategy for homedepot.com, said the barcode pilots are about extending the company’s “anytime, anywhere” marketing strategy.

This spring, the trees in containers sold at Lowe’s garden centers began carrying tags that could be scanned to view a two-minute how-to video on the specifics of tree planting, including what soil to buy. One of the main reasons for container tree returns is unsuccessful planting, said a Lowe’s spokeswoman, Colleen Carbott.

Lowe’s is using Microsoft tag technology which, with its colorful squares, looks different from the black-and-white checked quick-response codes at Home Depot.

“We also have a star rating system on our product pages with user-generated content that is to be accessed by customers,” Jawhar noted. Lowe’s will not place the barcodes on items like a bag of cement, he said, but plans to place them on products that lend themselves to how-to information.

Customers like Keri Stevens, of Verona, Ky., already are convinced. While shopping with her three sons recently in Home Depot, one noticed a bar code on a potted cactus. An admitted “black thumb” gardener, Stevens bought it only after scanning the barcode to find out the care details.

“Now we look for barcodes together,” said Stevens. “We make it a treasure hunt, and my kids see scanning barcodes as the new normal.”

money on a search engine called Blekko.com. Skrenta pitched his investors with the notion that there is still money to be made in search because of the high price the two big competitors get for search terms and advertising.

If Blekko could get even a small part of that revenue, the investors would reap a healthy return on their money.

His idea is to concentrate the search. Only a relatively small number of the Web’s total pages are visited — in the tens of millions rather than in the hundreds of billions. In his view, it should be possible to simplify a search engine so it could satisfy a vast majority of searchers.

Blekko uses a search algorithm like Google’s or Bing’s but also gets humans, mostly volunteers, to identify the sites they know, trust and visit most often and to put those at the top of the search results.

THE BULLETIN • Sunday, May 15, 2011 G3

Meat Continued from G1 He said people don’t need a USDA-certified slaughtering plant or butcher to cut up meat for their own use or to sell directly from their ranch, but the USDA certification is required to sell to restaurants, schools, hospitals and other institutions.

Doug Breese, an owner of Breese Ranch near Prineville, said he sells grass-fed beef directly to the public through his website www.breesebeef.com, and farmers markets, in addition to a network of upscale restaurants, primarily in the Portland area.

He said having slaughtering and processing nearby is critical to the success of his marketing plan.

“To start with, I can’t sell my meat to the public unless it is slaughtered, cut and wrapped by a USDA-certified plant,” Breese said.

While there is one other USDAcertified plant licensed to handle domestic livestock in Madras, Breese said if he had to haul his cattle 60 miles round trip every time he was ready to slaughter a few head, he’d have to add the transportation costs to his beef prices, which would weaken his competitive advantage.

Besides that, Breese said, “There is nobody in Central Oregon that does a better job of cutting and wrapping than the Butcher Boys.”

“Our family has been using that plant for four generations,” Breese said.

Julia Kennedy, right, owner of Quail Run Ranch near Bend, pays Butcher Boys for slaughtering, cutting and wrapping lamb meat, including lamb sausage, leg of lamb and kabob meat she plans to sell at area farmers markets.

Ann Snyder, an owner of White Diamond Ranch near Ashwood, leads one of her goats to slaughter followed by Don Berman, owner of Butcher Boys.

Alan Rousseau, of Pine Mountain Ranch (www.pmrbuffalo. com) located south of Bend, raises exotic animals that he has slaughtered and packaged at Butcher Boys.

“Basically, our ranch would not exist without Butcher Boys,” Rousseau said, adding that there aren’t any other plants in the region USDA certified to slaughter and process exotic animals.

“Butcher Boys does all of our buffalo, Tibetan yak, our grassfed beef, our wild Dall sheep,

free-range pigs, fallow deer and our Rocky Mountain elk,” Rousseau said.

“We sell at 10 different farmers markets across Oregon, and to some restaurants, mostly in the (Willamette) Valley,” Rousseau said.

Customers can also purchase exotic meats directly at Pine Mountain Ranch, where he also raises and processes free-range chicken, turkey, quail, pheasant and other types of birds and rabbits for direct sale to customers.

ho antique buyers are perusing through estate and moving sales.

But Towry said he does regularly see a stream of younger shoppers.

“There’s a lot of young girls that come (who) like the retro stuff and that kind of thing,” he said.

One element of the estate-selling business that has not changed for Towry, Hickman and Whittington is how they know what a given thing is worth. The ability to give a price to an item is almost always based on each person’s decades of experience.

Now and then, though, they do have to tap their resources to determine the right price.

Towry said he has several research tools, such as reference guides, to turn to when he’s not sure about the value of something, although it’s not a common occurrence, as he tends to see the same things over and over.

Hickman expressed reservations about relying on suggested prices, or even her own judgment, for some antiques.

“Antiques that I deem of any value at all, I go onto eBay (and search for) completed auctions — everything that has sold in the last 30 days and the price it has sold for — which is the true gauge for market value,” she said.

Even customers can help out in coming up with the right price for an item in certain cases, Whittington said.

“We’ll put it out and ask the customers what it is,” she said. “There’s a lot of knowledge about it.”

Estate liquidators don’t just show up at the start of a sale.

Each has rules and ways of doing things, but generally they all follow a procedure.

First, an estate liquidator vis-

its the home and asks the homeowner or relative to remove all goods they want to keep. The liquidator then cleans up the home and the goods, throwing out trash and other items unfit for sale along the way. (“Everybody saves things they shouldn’t — old decks of cards, half-opened napkins,” Towry said.) Then her team brings in tables, shelves or other furniture to put the goods on display and add price tags.

After the sale, the liquidator works with the homeowner or relative to determine what to do with leftovers, possibly boxing them, donating them or trying to sell them elsewhere.

In exchange for services, the liquidator takes somewhere near 30 percent of the total of the sales; the homeowner or relative takes the rest.

The three estate liquidators agreed that antique prices overall can be lower than owners or family members might expect them to be.

They also said, contrary to what some believe, the venture is not necessarily a cash cow.

Small wonder Hickman and Simpson also run their Prineville store. For Hickman, who said she has been doing estate and moving sales around Central Oregon on occasion — when the need arises — for two decades, it’s nice to have a retail store to return to.

Towry, who holds sales almost every week, said it can be difficult to maximize his earnings from sales, with clients hungry for the most dollars for assets and shoppers eager to save as much money as possible on their finds. He said he cuts down on overhead by not having full-time help.

Whittington said she does have to pay wages to her work-

Julie Kennedy Cochran, owner of Quail Run Ranch near Tumalo, has about 32 head of sheep slaughtered at Butcher Boys each year, which she markets directly through her website www.quailrunpds.com, and sells at farmers markets, including the two Bend farmers markets, which open on Wednesday, June 1 at Drake Park and Friday, June 3 at St. Charles Bend.

“Butcher Boys helped me develop two different kinds of lamb sausages that have been extremely popular with my customers,” Kennedy Cochran said.

In addition to a Greek loukanika and a Moroccan merguez the Butcher Boys helped her create with her mixture of spices, Kennedy Cochran also sells leg of lamb, kabob meat and round lamb kidney meat, all from lean, grass-fed lambs.

“There are a lot of people who

have small acreages like ours who are interested in raising crops or animals to sell locally,” but more processing facilities and a better local farm-to-market transportation system are needed to meet the growing demand for locally grown foods.

On Monday, Ann Snyder and Bing Bingham of White Diamond Ranch (www.whitediamondranch.com) near Ashwood delivered two of their goats for Butcher Boys to slaughter, cut and wrap in preparation for both farmers markets in Bend.

Snyder, who has been raising sheep, goats and hogs on her ranch near Ashwood for more than 20 years, is active in the Central Oregon Food Policy Council.

She said the council is looking for ways to help area farmers sell their crops at farmers markets, produce stands and grocery

stores catering to the consumers who want locally grown or organically grown products.

Snyder said the council was formed about six months ago to discuss food and farming-related issues in Central Oregon.

She said statewide the lack of USDA certified meat slaughtering and processing plants, as well as a lack of local vegetable and grain-processing plants, are some of the biggest hurdles to expanding availability of locally grown meats, produce and grains.

In Central Oregon, the council has also identified a need for a system where trucks would make stops at area farms or pickup stations, and then deliver locally grown meats, produce and other products to farmers markets, produce stands, grocery stores, restaurants and possibly even schools, hospitals and retirement homes in Bend, Redmond, Madras, Prineville and other Central Oregon towns.

“It doesn’t pay for me to run to Bend to deliver $10 worth of meat; it doesn’t pay for Rob and Sandy Cloud (who farm near Madras) to run to Bend to deliver vegetables, but if we had a delivery truck system, that would be an affordable way for us get our crops where they need to go.”

Estate Continued from G1 Tracy Towry, an estate liquidator who runs Attic Estates and Appraisals, also reported seeing higher demand for commonplace items.

“Twenty-five years ago, people used to be after antiques,” Towry said. “Now people are a lot more into things that they remember from their childhood.” Modern, midcentury furniture — from the 1950s and ’60s — is in greater demand today, in his observation.

The change could be a function of a shift in estate and moving sales’ customer profile.

The oldest shoppers might have already filled their houses with purchases over the years, so they buy less now, said Nanette Hickman, another estate liquidator. She and her business partner, Miles Simpson, conduct estate and moving sales through their shop for antiques and other used things, Antiques Alley in northwest Prineville.

Younger people — baby boomers — are showing up in greater numbers at estate sales, Towry said. Rather than identify with certifiable antiques — things more than 100 years old — they might be quicker, Towry said, to spring for items they recall from their childhood, the midcentury things.

Still, a fair share of seniors populated the crowd of about 75 waiting to enter an estate sale Towry was running in Bend earlier this month.

Another possible reason Towry cited for the decline in the demand for antiques is the rising scarcity of the antique shop, which means fewer gung-

ers. But with about 700 recipients of her company’s regular e-mail blasts, and with word of mouth continually spreading, business keeps going.

“A lot of them tell friends or forward it on to their friends,” she said of the e-mails.

Plus, even at 71, after about 37 years of holding estate and moving sales, she plans to continue doing the work years into the future.

“Yeah, why not?” she asked.

“I’m still physically able and mentally competent. I haven’t lost everything yet, so why not?”

THE BULLETIN • Sunday, May 15, 2011 G5

‘L.A. Noire’ Continued from G1 Is it a shooter game, in which the player sees the world — and attacks — through a main character? Not really, although there is shooting. Is it an open-world game, like the Grand Theft Auto series and Red Dead Redemption, also by Rock Star? Not really. The invisible hand of the game’s plot keeps you moving forward, not off to the side.

Is it even a game?

“It’s very much like a TV show that you can play,” Brendan McNamara, its developer, said.

“We’re hoping to draw people who haven’t played a game before.”

If this is a gamble for Rock Star, and its multimillion-dollar game — the company would not disclose a figure — it is a calculated one. The video game audience, after all, is not getting any younger. “It used to only be kids,” said Dmitri Williams, 39, an associate professor at the University of Southern California’s Annenberg School for Communication and Journalism. “Now the kids are adults themselves.

They still like the medium. Now they want content to suit their older tastes.”

The game forgoes typical animation, instead using video of real actors — some 400 of them, mostly relatively unknown but among them notables like John Noble, a star of the television drama “Fringe,” and much of the cast of “Mad Men” — with technology basically invented for the occasion. The actors play cops, bartenders, dancing girls, club bosses, thugs and even that guy at that all-night vegetable stand, in roles much more prominent than traditional voice-overs.

They spit out lines familiar to fans of film noir: “Go out there and catch me another sinner,” the Irish lieutenant says. Later a cop tells a suspect: “Save the dramatics for RKO, pal. You got bigger problems.” These performances were digitally attached to animated computer-game bodies.

The result is a strikingly more realistic human face than gamers are used to seeing. That is crucial to the story. As Detective Cole Phelps questions witnesses, the player must watch a suspect’s facial expressions and decide if he is being truthful. The player, through Phelps, can accept a character’s story or accuse him of lying.

The game is like an R-rated “Choose Your Own Adventure” story as written by James Ellroy.

It is steeped in gorgeous renderings of 1947 Los Angeles, from the exterior of Musso and Frank Grill and Grauman’s Chinese Theater to the “Hollywoodland” sign up in the hills. Characters curse, smoke, drink, fight — the whole noir playbook, over moody jazz, in bright color by day and neon-flecked shadow after dark.

The game play is remarkably slow by today’s standards. If this turns off young gamers, it is expected to appeal to those who were young in the 1980s. “It is unremarkable that there are games targeted at a niche or older audience,” Williams said. “It’s no different than television or radio.”

Long passages of dialogue roll out without the player touching a button. As Phelps, the player methodically collects clues — a matchbook, a lipstick, half of a torn library card — takes copious notes and questions witnesses until he has enough for an arrest, or fails and lets the bad guy get away.

“Video games are usually like, kill a bunch of people in 20 seconds,” said McNamara, 49, whose credits include “The Getaway,” a 2003 game with a similar grim and cinematic feel.

He attended a game convention recently: “There were 11 shooters. More guns, more blowing up

Robert Yager / New York Times News Service

Actor Michael McGrady is filmed for the video game “L.A. Noire,” in Los Angeles, on March 17. “I’ll probably get more recognition from this than ‘Southland’ or any movie,” said McGrady. things, more 10-second thrills.”

The game was shown for its largest crowd to date on April 25, inside a New York movie theater, the first video game ever screened at the Tribeca Film Festival. A Rock Star employee played through a murder investigation on the big screen. There was laughter at some of the oneliners, as well as during the unintentionally funny performance of a character who was blatantly lying. But in the end the audience applauded warmly.

The idea for “Noire” came to McNamara about 10 years ago, in a bookstore, while he was looking at the huge wall of mystery novels. “We don’t do that in video games,” he said. “We just do the little science fiction shelf in the back.”

The game’s technology, called Motion Scan, was created by McNamara and Oliver Bao, 34.

They wanted faces that looked sharper than those rendered with motion-capture technology — the kind that uses little dots all over an actor’s face.

Instead, 32 cameras positioned at eye level, as well as above and below, film the actor’s head as he or she reads the game’s script.

The performances were filmed last year in a brightly lighted little room in Culver City, Calif., within walking distance of the storied old studio lots where “The Wizard of Oz” and countless other classic films were created.

The game’s huge cast is sure to be recognizable to television viewers, especially fans of “Mad Men.” (“It’s Peggy’s mom!”

“There’s Peggy’s sister!”) Phelps himself is played by Aaron Staton, who plays Ken Cosgrove on television. The cast of the show, set in the early 1960s, was a natural choice for a game set 13 years earlier, Staton, 30, said.

Familiar faces Actors from shows like “Heroes,” “ER” and any number of “CSI” programs play suspects and witnesses and fellow officers. Each performed his part in the same chair, wearing an orange T-shirt, after a session with makeup and hair artists.

The game’s technology, paradoxically, relies on age-old skills with brushes and combs. All the 1940s hairstyles seen on the characters were done in front of a mirror, not digitally. Same with black eyes and bloody wounds.

The performances depend upon sitting stock still. “It’s like acting in a straitjacket,” said Michael McGrady, 50, recently seen in the television police drama “Southland,” playing the tough but philandering Detective Daniel Salinger. In “Noire” he plays Phelps’ partner, Rusty Galloway, a mash-up of all the tough-guy cops in all the dead-end saloons

you’ve ever seen — in short, he’s probably too noir actually to be in a film noir nowadays. His character is a growling bag of oneliners that took some 40 hours to deliver, one line at a time, with a straight face. (“If I killed every wife that served me papers,” he says during the Maldanado investigation, “I’d be a mass murderer.” And, while on the clock, working a case in a bar: “Pour me three fingers of rye.”)

“I’ll probably get more recognition from this than ‘Southland’ or any movie,” McGrady said.

“How many people will see this in the next year? A lot of actors are going to want to jump on board for the experience and the exposure.”

Continued from G1 “It gets you into places where you don’t run into a single person,” said Tingey, a 65-year-old tinkerer who began making ski clothes in Jackson Hole, Wyo., in the late 1960s before designing kayak gear and launching Alpacka 10 years ago. “It’s just totally opened up the backcountry.”

In Mancos, where she recently expanded the shop she first erected four years ago, Tingey joins a growing list of manufacturers who are helping to spark the Four Corners economy. Although her six full-time and three part-time employees rank in the middle of the local manufacturing workforce, Alpacka is helping establish the area as a business-friendly region, ripe for more players.

“A lot of business owners are drawn to that area for the quality of life and recreational opportunities,” said Monty Rutherford, regional director for the Colorado Association for Manufacturing and Technology.

Unemployment in the area is at 11.2 percent, Rutherford said, which appeals to potential employers looking for an eager workforce. Alpacka is among several businesses in western Colorado that have grown in the faltering economy, Rutherford said.

“Having visited with her and other businesses that were growing, they all tended to be in the recreation field,” Rutherford said. “It seems like people are staying closer to home and doing things with their families and that has helped some businesses like Alpacka.”

Enabling more accessible recreation is a goal for Tingey. A whitewater kayaking pioneer in the 1970s, Tingey today eschews the gnarly descents of her youth, choosing instead to forge new experiences floating the most remote waterways in the world.

With shocks of gray hair

A critical element of the plot is the year the game is set, a dark time in the City of Angels, as evident in the last paragraph of the July 9, 1947, Los Angeles Examiner’s article about Mondragon’s silk-stocking murder: “The new slaying reminded police of the series of unsolved brutal murders early this year, starting with the ‘Black Dahlia’ death of Elizabeth Short on Jan. 15.”

The gruesome crime scene — Short’s body was cut in half and posed in a vacant lot — set a sort of tone for the city that year, with suggestions of a copycat or a serial killer seemingly following every murdered woman. That list of women was not short: 32 of the 119 people killed in 1947 were women, and several of those cases were not solved. Five of the victims in particular, including Mondragon, bore signs of violence and mutilation that had the police chasing links to the Dahlia.

Those five cases all show up in “L.A. Noire.” McNamara consulted a Los Angeles Times editor and unofficial Dahlia historian, Larry Harnisch, and used newspaper accounts from the day for accuracy.

To a point. “We have had to take some license with them,” McNamara said in an e-mail to Harnisch. “It’s obviously not a work of scholarship, and I’m hoping it won’t become folklore like so many other spurious things with the Dahlia case.”

falling from a faded bandanna, Tingey works on new Alpacka revisions every day in her shop, while her employees rotate through every task, from welding seams to cutting designs to shipping orders.

An idea is afloat It was in the late 1990s when Tingey’s son, Thor, came back from an extended backpacking trip in Alaska’s rugged Brooks Range. Throwing down the cheap lake float he had used to traverse several rivers — crossings that often resulted in dangerously cold swims — Thor uttered the timeless words that have sparked nearly every innovation: “There’s got to be a better way.”

Mom’s ears perked up with what is still her mantra. With her kayaking background and skill at designing outerwear, Tingey says “it wasn’t a stretch” to come up with that better way.

Starting with the inexpensive lake-floating “pool toy” crafts that “sunk around every bend” in a river, Tingey began dabbling with urethane-coated rubber and a tear-resistant polyethylene fiber that serve as the lightweight foundation of Alpacka’s designs.

Tingey’s focus was simplicity and durability in a featherweight package. She says her boats should last 20 years, and she offers a sweeping warranty for her

seven Alpacka designs.

Combining backpackerfriendly weight with whitewater designs found in kayaks, Alpacka quickly became essential for explorers in Alaska, where rivers are the true highways.

“There are places you can get to that you never could get to before unless you spent a bunch of money on a bush plane or swam down a river,” said Roman Dial, a biology professor at Alaska Pacific University whose 2008 book “Packrafting!” helped ignite the Alpacka revolution.

Dial has paddled his Alpacka down huge whitewater, most recently descending Tasmania’s remote Class IV Franklin River.

He’s floated his Alpacka in 11 Alaska Wilderness Classics, setting course records in what is considered one of the world’s most-grueling backcountry races. While he still gets his thrills exploring the limits of packrafting, he says today he enjoys introducing newcomers to Tingey’s crafts.

“As soon as they get in, they get this big, wide grin,” Dial said. “Everyone can paddle a packraft.”

Plug-in Prius guilt-free but not much fun

By Warren Brown Special to The Washington Post

It is a careful rollout — befitting an automobile featuring advanced technology.

Simultaneously, it is a rushed introduction, not yet ready for prime time, a common occurrence in a hypercompetitive industry in which having an idea is not the same as bringing it to market before a competitor.

That is R E V I E W what happened to the Toyota Prius Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle, variously labeled the Prius PHEV or Prius PHV, which has been rolling around the United States in prototype form for the past year gathering mileage and consumer reaction, the latter poured out in volume on Twitter, Facebook and other social media, in preparation for a market debut sometime in 2012.

In homage to brevity, I’ll call it the PHV, probably the greenest and most advanced Prius in the 14-year history of an automobile that revolutionized consumer, regulatory, industry and political thinking about the feasibility, acceptability and desirability of high-mileage alternative-fuel passenger cars.

Given this heritage, the emergence of the PHV should have been monitored in the manner of royal progeny. But its glory was eclipsed by the earlier-to-market Chevrolet Volt — an extendedrange plug-in hybrid electric car produced by General Motors.

The Volt is larger and prettier inside and out than the Prius PHV. It also runs more miles on electric-only power — 40 miles per charge, compared with 13 for the prototype PHV driven for this column.

But the PHV remains a commendably virtuous work. It fully recharges substantially faster than the Volt — 1.5 to three hours

Special to The Washington Post

Toyota’s Prius Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle is good for us but not as fun as Chevy’s Volt.

Toyota Prius Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle Base price: $25,000; to be sold in 13 states, including Oregon, in 2012 Type: Five-door, front-wheel drive hatchback; seats five Power system: Toyota has added plug-in electric technology to its famed Hybrid Synergy Drive system. That means a 1.8-liter gasoline engine/ generator mated with an electric drive system enhanced by plug-in electric power and the ability to run up to 13 miles at 62 mph on electric power only.

The gas side takes over after the electric charge has depleted. Plug-in power can be restored in 1.5 to three hours.

Mileage: 13 miles at 62 mph without fuel or 475 miles per 11.9-gallon tank

for the Prius PHV vs. three to 15 hours for the Volt, with the duration of charge times depending on the charging source used — regular 115-to-120-volt house current, a 220-volt outlet or a higher-voltage setup specifically designed for the task.

The Volt is relatively expensive — a base price of $40,280 before available federal tax abatements of up to $7,500. But although the Prius PHV is much less costly than the Volt — with base prices ranging from $22,120 to $28,790,

depending on trim levels chosen — it won’t be cheap. Industry types estimate that plug-in technology will add $3,000 to $5,000 to the price tag.

Is the car worth it?

Yes, it is — in the manner that cleaner air and moving toward a more stable and, eventually, more affordable energy future are worth it.

The plug-in Volt and the Prius PHV both offer the ability to do

local commuting without burning one ounce of gasoline. With the Volt, the electric-only commuting range is 40 miles. It is 13 miles with the Prius PHV, as currently constituted. What is important is that both cars give commuters the ability to plan gas-free trips, thus lessening our overall dependence on oil, foreign or domestic, and moving us forward into a more livable, breathable environment.

Both front-wheel-drive cars address consumer anxiety about driving range by mating their electric power systems with small gasoline engine/generators — a 1.8-liter four-cylinder (98 horsepower) for the Prius PHV and a 1.4-liter four-cylinder (80 horsepower) for the Volt. Both cars handle and drive quite well in the electric-only mode. But the Prius PHV is a bit more fun when it switches to gas assistance.

It figures. In gasoline/generator mode, the Volt is using a smaller engine to move more weight, considering the Volt’s curb weight (factory weight mi-

nus passengers and cargo) of 3,781 pounds. The Prius PHV’s curb weight is an estimated 700 pounds less assisted by a larger gasoline engine. As a result, the Prius PHV feels downright sprightly in gasoline mode, when the car switches to Hybrid Synergy Drive, the technology used

by Priuses to date.

Car shoppers are not likely to consider the Prius PHV or the Volt equally. Since the Prius’ introduction in 1997 in Japan, the odd-shaped car has been a motorized badge of honor for many environmentalists. Here’s betting that many of them will welcome the production version of the 2012 Prius PHV, which, at least in base form, is likely to come with an austere, barebones exterior similar to the one in the prototype. Those buyers are in pursuit of fuel efficiency at the expense of appearance and, I would argue, comfort.

The Volt, on the other hand, caters to the American tradition of delightful excess, in which some aspect of efficiency often is sacrificed in favor of beauty and comfort. For me, it is a much more likable car — much more a car than it is a science project.

Hyper-milers, those people dedicated to getting the most miles possible out of a gallon of fuel, are likely to love the forthcoming productionmodel Prius PHV. It is likely to give them bragging rights over almost everything else in the extended-range plug-inelectric category. But I do not count myself among them. I’m more of a Volt person, which makes me silly, perhaps. But I’m willing to spend more money on a car and the fuel to run it in exchange for more smiles per mile.

Pricey oil can last at least 5K miles

By Steven Cole Smith The Orlando Sentinel

Q:

I took my 2008 Cadillac CTS in for an oil change the other day, and the service manager told me my car had a recall regarding the onboard computer’s suggested oil life. GM decided that it should be reset to recommend that the oil would be changed more often than originally. Mobil 1 is the oil used, and they want to change it every five months or 5,000 miles. What should be the time frame between changes for synthetic oil?

—Ron Summerlin, Plantation, Fla. Not to sound like an advertisement for Mobil 1 synthetic oil, but ever since Chevrolet started using it as the standard oil in Corvettes — which have always had issues with engine cooling — I figured if it’s good enough for them, it’s good enough for me.

That said, changing Mobil 1 based solely on it being in the car for five months seems absurd. The 5,000-mile interval is what I use for my personal vehicles (and that includes a new filter), but many mechanics will tell you that every 7,500 miles is fine for synthetics.

But in more than a million miles of driving, and quite a few miles of racing, I’ve never had an oil-related breakdown. Besides lubrication, one of oil’s duties is to collect dirt and carbon from inside the engine, and the filter can’t collect it all. Too much dirt, and the lubrication ability suffers. Fairly frequent changes helps keep the oil comparatively clean.

Before kids, there wasn’t a night for 10 years that Will and I went to sleep before 2 a.m. I’d sleep until noon or one, and I thought 10:30 a.m. was early. Now I’m sound asleep by 11:30 every night, and the kids wake us up around seven— on a good day.

SUNDAY WITH...

Amy Poehler With late nights a thing of the past, the comedian discusses the delights of avocados, organizing, and Liza Minnelli

i’m just another supermom!” declares Amy Poehler, 39. Then she pauses for a beat and blurts out, “Who am I kidding? I’m lucky to get everybody out the door without Cheerios stuck to their pajamas!” By “everybody,” she means sons Archie, 2½, and Abel, 9 months, her kids with actor Will Arnett. The Saturday Night Live alum, best known for her impersonations of Hillary Clinton and Kelly Ripa, now keeps viewers chuckling as the star of NBC’s Parks and Recreation (Thursdays, 9:30 p.m. ET). Here, she tells writer David Hochman about how she stays entertained.

Do you still watch h SNL? I do, but not on Saturdays. I’ll watch it first thing on Sunnday. Then I’ll text Seth Meyers [her former cohost on the Weekend Update segments] to say what I liked.

I’m a Sunday-morning comedy quarterback.

Any other weekend rituals?

We go to the farmers’ market and ooh and aah over the California produce. Avocados! I’m like, “Just take my wallet and fill up the basket.”

Then, on a really awesome day, I’ll spend the afternoon cleaning out my closets.

I love to organize. To me, there’s no greater grown-up pleasure than cleaning your drawers while listening to This American Life or Fresh Air on public radio. Your brain gets organized, and so does your underwear.

What’s your secret to distracting two kids under 3?

I’ll bring my BlackBerry, and everybody wants it. But bring one that’s a few seasons old for them to play with and they look at you like, “Nice try.” Even kids under 2 seem to have a sense for technology and what the latest product is.

YOU THINK HEALTHY DIET AND EXERCISE ARE ENOUGH TO LOWER HIGH CHOLESTEROL. BUT FOR 2 OUT OF 3, IT MAY NOT BE. For 2 out of 3 people with high cholesterol, diet and exercise may not be enough to reduce their cholesterol.

Modern etiquette made easy

Q: I’m horribly allergic to cats. My sister-in-law puts her beloved kitties, Sonny and Cher, in a back bedroom when I visit, but there’s still cat hair all over the furniture, and it makes me sneeze.

When I pointed this out to her, she thought I was accusing her of being a bad housekeeper. Now she’s insulted that I won’t come over. What can I do? —Joseph K., Tampa, Fla. A: Calm her down with your new best friend, Science. The problem is not cat hair; it’s dander in the fur. “Even with good housecleaning, dander floats in the air and can get in your nose and eyes,” says Clifford W. Bassett, medical director of Allergy & Asthma Care of New York. Once you’ve explained that your misery has nothing to do with your sister-in-law’s (excellent!) housekeeping, the question becomes: How often do you need to visit? If it’s only occasionally, you could load up on over-the-counter allergy meds beforehand. But if her home is a frequent gathering place, you might consider gifting her with a HEPA air filter or a HEPA vacuum cleaner, which will help reduce allergens in the air.

Summer Movie Preview

BY MARY MARGARET AND STEVE DALY

A PIRATE’S LIFE Depp’s Captain Jack wades in with Cruz, who plays the scheming Angelica. Below, Ian McShane as Blackbeard.

PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: ON STRANGER TIDES (May 20)

Starring Johnny Depp, Penélope Cruz, Geoffrey Rush, Ian McShane It’s the fourth go-round for Depp’s iconic scalawag Captain Jack Sparrow, who’s off to find the fountain of youth (this time without original co-stars Keira Knightley and Orlando Bloom).

Along the way, Sparrow encounters the King of England, zombies, and shapeshifting mermaids. But the biggest plot twist happened offscreen, when a surprise stowaway was discovered about a week before filming began. Cruz, who co-starred with Depp in 2001’s Blow, had signed on to play scheming, lusty pirate Angelica, the con-artist daughter of evildoer Blackbeard (McShane) and a mysterious figure from Sparrow’s past. Then—shiver their timbers!—just as 3-D cameras were about to roll last June, the actress learned she was pregnant, a fact that wouldn’t be confirmed to the media for three more

months. (Cruz and Javier Bardem married in July in the Bahamas, and their son was born in January.)

So, what to do? “We were like, uhhhhhh,” recalls director Rob Marshall, who had worked with Cruz on Nine. “I said, ‘Are you going to be okay sword fighting with a baby in your stomach?’ But she was up for it. She said she’d understand if we had to replace her, but she didn’t want to be replaced. It took more time, ultimately.

But she was worth it. She’s so special in the movie. You’ll see in the final film itt d doesn’t hinder att al all.” o sn oe sn’t ’t h hin inde in d r it a de a ll..”

Still, Cruz felt the shakiness of the plank that the cast and crew found themselves walking. “It could have gone many different ways,” she says. “It’s really amazing how generous and kind they have been, because there were a lot of things to adjust.” While Disney execs must have been nervous about their gold-mine franchise, Depp doesn’t recall batting so much as one mascaralined eyelash at the revised game plan.

“I knew it would be fine from the first second,” he says. “Everybody was incredibly watchful and protective of Penélope.

She didn’t take any horrific risks, but she did a lot of sword fighting and stunty things. In terms of the logistics, when the belly got a little bigger, you’d tighten up the camera angle a bit.”

That wasn’t the only strategizing required. Cruz’s most taxing fight scenes—there’s a huge, mutinous brawl aboard Blackbeard’s ship, among other set pieces—had to be pushed up in the shoot schedule.

Her costume’s black corset (its ties replaced with elastic and hidden under a coat) and big white shirt with puffy sleeves helped slim her silhouette. And in some wide shots, Cruz’s look-alike sister, Mónica, doubled for her.

He’s been al busy finishing Stranger Tides to too to o bu think thin th in about it, but he believes we in haven’t seen the last of Captain h hav ha av JJack. “It’s like the James Bond Ja series,” he says. “I think there sse e are probably lots of stories a sstill st t to tell.” —S.D.

THE SMURFS (Aug. 3) Starring Neil Patrick Harris,

Jayma Mays; with voices of Katy Perry, George Lopez Harris didn’t grow up a Smurfs fan (“They freaked me out,” he says, laughing), but he liked them as co-stars. “They never forget their lines,” he deadpans. In the franchise’s first animation and live-action hybrid, the Smurfs find themselves in Manhattan, bunking with Patrick (Harris) and Grace (Mays) as they try to return to Smurf Village. There will be new faces in the blue mix, but director Raja Gosnell vows, “All the characters people know and love will be there.”

GREEN LANTERN (June 17)

Starring Ryan Reynolds,

Blake Lively, Peter Sarsgaard A buffed-up Reynolds plays cocky test pilot Hal Jordan, who is transported by aliens to the planet Oa, where he’s drafted into a sort of interstellar police force.

“He’s more like a Han Solo,” Reynolds says of Jordan. “Sarcastic, kind of witty, and definitely not the dark, brooding character you see in a lot of comic-book films.”

SUMMER MOVIE PREVIEW | continued THE HANGOVER PART II (May 26) Starring Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms, Zach Galifianakis

Their 2009 trip to Vegas grossed $467 million worldwide, and now the boys are taking the debauchery overseas, tearing through Thailand on the eve of Stu’s (Helms’s) wedding. They wake up in a decrepit hovel with a pet monkey and a tribal tattoo, but minus the brother of the bride. “It’s very different from the Frank Sinatra suite in the first movie,” says director Todd Phillips. “Fans will be surprised at the level the guys have to sink to in Bangkok.”

Black is back as the voice of Po, giddily training with his heroes Bl the Furious Five until the evil Shen (Oldman) forces them from their idyllic valley and into a fight for the survival of kung fu itself. the “We wanted to challenge Po with bigger, crazier locations,” says “W director Jennifer Yuh Nelson. The action sequences —now in dir 3-D—get a boost as well. “It takes things to another level and 3 puts you in the middle of the battles,” Black says. “We’ll be blowing minds.” After two films, Black feels a bond with the lovable panda. “There’s not much separation between Po and a young me,” he says. “I ‘d look up to my idols and dream about being one of them. That’s what Po’s all about.”

LARRY CROWNE (July 1) Starring Tom Hanks, Julia Roberts

Hanks directed, cowrote, and stars in this gently comic look at life after a layoff. “The future has become the X factor for many folks,” he says. “Not just making the house payments, but a deeper wonder of, What will people do with each day?

Who will they be?” The star plays Larry, a downsized bigbox-store employee who enrolls in community college and romances his unhappily married speech teacher (Roberts).

“What can he do but have faith in himself?” Hanks adds.

TRANSFORMERS: DARK OF THE MOON (July 1) Starring Shia LaBeouf, Josh Duhamel, Tyrese Gibson,

Patrick Dempsey, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley Robots, romance, and rivalry, oh my! As if trying to help the Autobots beat the Decepticons in a space race isn’t enough, Sam (LaBeouf) must keep his new girlfriend, Carly (HuntingtonWhiteley), from falling for her car-collector boss (Dempsey). The Grey’s Anatomy star relished the adrenaline rush. “I went from the ultimate chick show to the ultimate male show,” Dempsey says. “There are lots of explosions, and I loved every minute of it.”

CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE FIRST AVENGER (July 22)

Starring Chris Evans, Hugo Weaving, Hayley Atwell, Tommy Lee Jones Meet Steve Rogers (Evans), a scrawny, wannabe WWII soldier rejected by the U.S. Army, then turned into a Naziclobbering powerhouse by a military experiment. “He doesn’t have to work for it, doesn’t have to pump iron,” says director Joe Johnston.

“It’s every man’s dream.”

To make Evans look underweight at first, his head was digitally grafted onto another actor’s body—but he had to train two hours daily and eat constantly to become Captain America. “Some days I couldn’t move from the couch,” Evans says. “I felt like my stomach was going to burst.”

HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS: PART 2 (July 15)

Starring Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, Rupert Grint

Harry (Radcliffe), Hermione (Watson), and Ron (Grint) return to Hogwarts after Voldemort (Ralph Fiennes)—armed with the unbeatable Elder Wand—attacks the school and sets in motion the final showdown between the Chosen One and the Dark Lord. “There’s a bit about the wand that wasn’t in the book and will surprise fans,” hints director David Yates. “It’s a very poignant part, and it’s about letting go of certain things.” Grint feels the film’s massive scale will be a fitting end to the franchise. “I think there was pressure to really go out with a bang,” he says. “Part two is kind of like a war film, and we all become soldiers in a way.” In one scene of this final episode, fans will see the trio looking 19 years older. “I aged quite badly,” Grint laughs. “I don’t look pretty, but it was fun and a nice ending.”

Courtney, Elle Fanning Is it a young-teen love story? An homage to coproducer Steven Spielberg’s aliens-among-us tales? Or a period piece (set in 1979) about an Ohio widower (Chandler) struggling to be a dad to his 14-yearold son (newcomer Courtney)? “It’s a cocktail of things,” says writerdirector J.J. Abrams. “The idea was to invoke the spirit of films that inspired me as a kid without xeroxing them.” Like Abrams at their age, the kids in Super 8 are budding moviemakers. One night while out filming their zombie movie, they witness a train wreck that unleashes a horrific beast. So what exactly is that awful thing? Don’t ask Chandler, who is sworn to secrecy. “You hear that surveillance helicopter?” the Friday Night Lights star jokes. “I gotta go.”

SUMMER MOVIE PREVIEW | continued

Starring Emma Stone, Viola Davis, Octavia Spencer, Bryce Dallas Howard Stone is glad she hadn’t read Kathryn Stockett’s bestseller before auditioning.

“I think I would’ve been too daunted,” she says of playing Skeeter Phelan, a white journalist who upends her 1960s Jackson, Miss., community by encouraging the town’s black maids (including Davis’s Aibileen, below) to tell their stories. “It’s like a rock concert because people are screaming and shouting and then they’re crying at the end,” adds producer Chris Columbus about the film’s early screenings. “And men are not embarrassed to love this movie as well.”

X-MEN: FIRST CLASS (June 3)

Starring James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence,

Nicholas Hoult, January Jones, Rose Byrne, Kevin Bacon Set during the Cuban missile crisis, this stylish story details the friendship and fallout between Magneto (Fassbender) and Professor X (McAvoy). “We wanted to explore how a group

of mutants suddenly became a fully equipped fighting team,” producer Bryan Singer says. “People cross sides, and as the action ratchets up, so does the emotion.” Bacon plays the villainous Sebastian Shaw as “a little bit Hugh Hefner, Donald Trump, and Ted Turner,” the actor says. “He’s very smooth and charming, but there’s a ruthless side to him.”

ONE DAY (Aug. 19) CARS 2 (June 24)

Starring Anne Hathaway, Jim Sturgess

True to the bittersweet novel it’s based on, this film follows the winding relationship of Emma (Hathaway) and Dexter (Sturgess), revisiting them on the same day each year for two decades after their initial meeting. For Hathaway, it was a challenge keeping up with 20 years of weight fluctuations. “I’d puff up and then all of a sudden have to lose it,” she says. But the tougher terrain was Emma’s Northern English accent. “I had visions of people from Leeds coming at me with torches,” she says with a laugh.

Voices of Owen Wilson,

CRAZY, STUPID, LOVE (July 29)

Starring Steve Carell,

Julianne Moore, Ryan Gosling, Emma Stone After his wife (Moore) walks away from their marriage, a depressed Cal (Carell) becomes a ladies’-man-in-training under the tutelage of playboy Jacob (Gosling). Although his abs get ample screen time, it’s Gosling’s comedic chops that impress.

“When we heard Ryan was interested, we all scratched our heads,” admits Glenn Ficarra, who directed the film with John Requa. “But after five minutes with him, it was like, he’s a natural.” Stone is the woman who just might tame Jacob’s wandering eye. “She’s played everything by the books,” the actress says of her character, “but Jacob’s a pretty good reason to go off the beaten path.”

COWBOYS & ALIENS (July 29)

MR. POPPER’S PENGUINS (June 17)

Starring Jim Carrey

This update of the 1930s children’s tale—about a man whose world goes topsy-turvy after some penguins come into his life—let Carrey channel his Ace Ventura mojo. “I’m not afraid to work with animals,” he says. “They like me. And who could be unhappy around penguins?” The set was kept ice cold for the birds, whose real-life antics were enhanced with computer graphics. “Jim had to wear long underwear,” says director Mark Waters, “but the penguins loved it.”

Daniel Craig, Olivia Wilde Adapted from a graphic novel, this genre mash-up set in 1873 follows amnesiac Jake Lonergan (Craig) into a hostile mining town, where he encounters an old flame (Wilde) and an ornery rancher (Ford). When spaceships show up, everyone unites against the common enemy.

Quirky premise aside, the big draw may be the leading men.

“You have action heroes of different generations who’ve both done definitive work,” says director Jon Favreau.

“It’s like watching two great fighters square off.”

Larry the Cable Guy While abroad for the World Grand Prix with pal Lightning McQueen (Wilson), tow truck Mater (Larry) sparks a spy caper when he’s mistaken for an operative. Director John Lasseter says the story is about how the big race “strains their friendship,” while Larry raves about animated settings so gorgeous, “I want to book my next vacation there.”

Originally from Nigeria, the 6-foot-2 Imovbioh might be the surprise of the finalists, but her numbers don’t lie. She is a rebounding machine and hovered around 30 points per game this season.

Elizabeth Williams Williams, a 6-foot-3 center, made more than 50% of her shots in high school and can rebound and block with the best players in the nation. She’ll be a star at Duke next year.

Jasmine Hines Hines is the all-time leading scorer for both boys and girls in Michigan, and she’ll bring that ability to Michigan State next year.

Included are both 1909 Lincoln cents – the first was produced for only a week before public protest about the artist’s “V.D.B.” initials on the back compelled the U.S. Mint to create a new version without them. Plus, the finishing touch to your collection is the complete set of 2009 Lincoln Bicentennial cents, and the inaugural 2010 Union Shield coin, all in uncirculated condition.

LIMITED-TIME OPPORTUNITY — DON’T DELAY! Why offer such a deep discount?

If you’re taking insulin, ask your health care provider about the benefits of FlexPen®

Ask Marilyn ®

By Marilyn vos Savant Say that a box contains two coins. One coin has heads on both sides. The other coin has heads on one side and tails on the other. A coin is selected at random, and the face of one side is observed. If the face is heads, what is the probability that the other side is heads?

Insulin delivery that’s going places, just like you

In a restaurant, at work, even at home, NovoLog® FlexPen® follows.

FlexPen®—a discreet, prefilled, dial-a-dose insulin pen.

—Randy Schantz, Detroit

Two out of three. Say you label the double-headed coin “heads #1” on one side and “heads #2” on the other. The regular coin is simply “heads” and “tails.” You have an equal chance of seeing any of these sides: (a) heads; (b) tails; (c) heads #1; and (d) heads #2.

In the puzzle, you see one of the heads. This eliminates (b) tails. (You didn’t see tails.)

Three possibilities remain: (a) heads (with tails on the reverse); (c) heads #1 (with heads #2 on the reverse); and (d) heads #2 (with heads #1 on the reverse).

So the chances are two out of three that the other side is one of the heads.

Why are the streets always wet in movies and television programs? —Debbie LeCavalier, Westminster, Colo.

Wet pavement adds visual interest, such as reflection, and heightens the sense of drama.

It makes the subject seem more vivid. To Hollywood, a dry street is a boring street!

Patient Information NovoLog® (NŌ-vō-log) (insulin aspart [rDNA origin] Injection) This is a BRIEF SUMMARY of important information about NovoLog®. This information does not take the place of talking to your healthcare provider about your diabetes or your treatment. Make sure that you know how to manage your diabetes. Ask your healtthcare provider if you have any questions about managing your diabetes.

𰀁𰁊 NovoLog® is a fast-acting insulin. The effects of NovoLog® start working 10 to 20 minutes after injection or bolus pump infusion. 𰀁𰁊 Do not inject NovoLog® if you do not plan to eat right after your injection or bolus pump infusion. 𰀁𰁊 The greatest blood sugar lowering effect is between 1 and 3 hours after the injection or infusion. This blood sugar lowering lasts for 3 to 5 hours. 𰀁𰁊 While using NovoLog® you may have to change your total dose of insulin, your dose of longer-acting insulin, or the number of injections of longer-acting insulin you use. Pump users given NovoLog® may need to change the amount of total insulin given as a basal infusion. 𰀁𰁊 Do not mix NovoLog®: 𰁊 with any other insulins when used in a pump 𰁊 with any insulins other than NPH when used with injections by syringe If your healthcare provider recommends diluting NovoLog®, follow your healthcare provider’s instructions exactly so that you know: 𰀁𰁊 How to make NovoLog® more dilute (that is, a smaller number of units of NovoLog® for a given amount of liquid) and 𰀁𰁊 How to use this more dilute form of NovoLog®. Do not use dilute insulin in a pump. 𰀁𰁊 Inject NovoLog® into the skin of your stomach area, upper arms, buttocks or upper legs.

NovoLog® may affect your blood sugar levels sooner if you inject it into the skin of your stomach area. Never inject NovoLog® into a vein or into a muscle. 𰀁𰁊 Change (rotate) your injection site within the chosen area (for example, stomach or upper arm) with each dose. Do not inject into the exact same spot for each injection. 𰀁𰁊 If you take too much NovoLog®, your blood sugar may fall low (hypoglycemia). You can treat mild low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) by drinking or eating something sugary right away (fruit juice, sugar candies, or glucose tablets). It is important to treat low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) right away because it could get worse and you could pass out (become unconscious). If you pass out you will need help from another person or emergency medical services right away, and will need treatment with a glucagon injection or treatment at a hospital. See “What are the possible side effects of NovoLog®?” for more information on low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). 𰀁𰁊 If you forget to take your dose of NovoLog®, your blood sugar may go too high (hyperglycemia). If high blood sugar (hyperglycemia) is not treated it can lead to serious problems, like loss of consciousness (passing out), coma or even death.

Follow your healthcare provider’s instructions for treating high blood sugar. Know your symptoms of high blood sugar which may include: 𰁊 increased thirst 𰁊 fruity smell on the breath 𰁊 frequent urination 𰁊 drowsiness 𰁊 loss of appetite 𰁊 a hard time breathing 𰁊 high amounts of sugar and ketones in your urine 𰁊 nausea, vomiting (throwing up) or stomach pain 𰀁𰁊 Check your blood sugar levels. Ask your healthcare provider what your blood sugars should be and when you should check your blood sugar levels.

Your insulin dosage may need to change because of: 𰁊 illness 𰁊 change in diet 𰁊 stress 𰁊 other medicines you take 𰁊 change in physical activity or exercise

Nature made it a superfood.

We made it super delicious.

Dr. Anne Camp Preventing diabetes by showing—not just telling— her patients how to eat right EVERY DAY, endocrinologist

Dr. Anne Camp sees people in danger of developing diabetes, but the typical prevention advice doesn’t work in her low-income Connecticut neighborhood.

“The residents can’t afford to join gyms, and many buy their food in bodegas that have few fruits and vegetables,” Camp says. So she worked with staff to give patients more than just advice by starting a free diabetes prevention program at the Fair Haven Community Health Center.

While attending bilingual nutrition and exercise classes, participants can grow their own produce. A neighborhood bakery donated space for a garden, and excess heat from the ovens is vented into a greenhouse. And an area cycling club is refurbishing donated bikes for participants.

Since the program began in 2007, 200 families have enrolled, and a pilot study found that the average particiWHERE New pant lost 6.5 Haven, Conn. pounds, reducing WHAT SHE’S his or her diabeDOING Helping low-income tes risk by a families reduce third. —Colleen their risk for Shaddox diabetes
