‘Enormous’ meth bust in Madras: 35 pounds SAT scores outpace state, nation seized on charter bus BEND-LA PINE SCHOOLS

By Patrick Cliff The Bulletin

How we scored

Bend-La Pine students overall continued to score higher on the SAT than state and national averages.

By Scott Hammers The Bulletin

Detectives with the Central Oregon Drug Enforcement team found 35 pounds of methamphetamine on a bus in Madras on Wednesday, the largest meth seizure in the team’s 20-year history and one of the largest ever in Oregon.

Lt. Ken Mannix with the team called it “an enormous amount,”

with a conservatively estimated street value of $1 million.

“We make significant seizures occasionally, and when I say significant, I mean, five-, six-, seven-pound seizures,” he said.

“That’s not a seizure you make every day, and obviously over 20 years you make a number of large seizures, but we have never made a seizure of this size.”

With timber payments set to expire, new logging plan sought

Greg Cross / The Bulletin

The average Scholastic Aptitude Test score of BendLa Pine students in 2010-11 beat state and national results, the school district said.

SAT scores on each section range from 200 to 800 for the reading, writing and math sections. The test results are commonly used by college admissions offices to evaluate an applicant.

Bend-La Pine’s critical reading score of 539 was 19 points higher than the state and 42 above the national averages. On the writing portion, the district’s 521 average was 22 above the state and 32 higher than the national score. The district’s 555 on math outdid state and national averages, respectively, by 34 and 41 points.

No help for seniors now ineligible for property tax deferral

CELEBRATING ROOTS AND RHYTHM

The Bulletin

WASHINGTON — With federal payments to timber counties set to expire at the end of the month, the House Subcommittee on National Parks, Forests and Public Lands discussed a proposal Thursday that would increase logging in federal forests to fund continued payments.

Under the plan, each national forest would have to harvest enough timber to match an unspecified percentage of its average production between 1980 and 2000.

Most of the revenue from the increased logging would then be funneled back to the counties to offset the end of federal payments under the Secure Rural Schools Act, which will end next Friday unless Congress takes action.

The federal payments were introduced in 2000 to help logging counties whose tax bases had been decimated by reduced timbering on federal land, which doesn’t contribute to the local tax base. These payments totaled almost $390 million in 2010, $438 million in 2009, and $478 million in 2008. With more than 15 million acres of federal forest, Oregon generally receives more than 25 percent of the funds: $108 million in 2010, $121 million in 2009, and $134 million in 2008.

Witnesses who testified Thursday took divergent positions.

Harris Sherman, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s undersecretary for natural resources and environment, said the proposal created a false expectation that timber production today can match peak levels from previous decades. Timber prices have fallen drastically, and a much larger harvest would be required for comparable revenues, he said.

SALEM — What one lawmaker called an “unintended consequence” could leave more than a thousand senior citizens across the state in a serious pinch when it comes to paying their proper ty taxes this November.

And after a meeting this week IN SALEM at the state Capitol, it appears unlikely that help will come for elderly homeowners before the 2012 legislative session in February.

“I was very disappointed on the progress that was made,” Republican Sen. Chris Telfer said after the legislative meeting Wednesday, where she hoped a solution would be discussed for the 1,700 seniors who are no longer eligible for the tax deferral.

“We have no way to tell our constituents what to do on Nov. 15 when they get their first property tax bill,” she said. “I’ll put my CPA (certified public accountant) hat on and do what we’ve been telling them, to pay the first third of their property taxes. And hopefully, we can get that back to them when we change the law next February.”

This past legislative session, lawmakers restricted the state’s Senior and Disabled Property Tax Deferral Program, which aims to keep seniors and disabled people in their homes.

Senior citizens received little notice that unlike in years past, this November they will be on the hook for their property taxes.

Lawmakers intended to reign in the program and make it harder to qualify in light of the state’s $3.5 billion budget shortfall — they were looking for ways to save money.

Mullen says Pakistani spies are tied to U.S. Embassy raid

The United States has long said that Pakistan’s intelligence agency supports the Haqqani network, based in Pakistan’s tribal areas, as a way to extend Pakistan’s influence in Afghanistan. But Mullen made clear that he believed that the support extended to increasingly high-profile attacks in Afghanistan aimed directly at the United States.

Falling satellite captures the popular imagination

By Kenneth Chang New York Times News Service

The odds that a falling satellite will kill you today are probably zero — but maybe not quite.

A dead hulk of a NASA satellite the size of a bus is skimming the top of the atmosphere, and as air molecules bounce off, its orbit is decaying until gravity will finally pull it down as a fiery meteor.

To be specific, 26 large pieces of the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite, the heaviest about 330 pounds, are expected to survive all the way and hit the surface. The debris will stretch along a 500-mile path.

At the same time that NASA has been spewing out bland itinerary updates — by Wednesday evening, North America had been ruled out as a crash pad — the event has turned into a bit of a media and pop culture phenomenon. Just about every major news outlet started weighing in on the impending arrival. On Facebook, people were linking to the news stories and adding their own ruminations, like “Wear a hardhat” and “Should we be concerned?”

On Fox News, anchor Shepard Smith dubbed today “Bus Day USA” and called the network’s coverage “the stupidest thing we’ve ever done.”

And on MSNBC.com, about 5,000 readers answered a poll about the satellite’s predicted course. Ten percent were “relieved that it’s likely to miss North America” while 34 percent were “bummed out at missing the fireworks” and 42 percent were “worried ... what about the rest of the world?”

‘Primal fear’ Some concerned citizens took the opportunity to contemplate our collective plight.

“Many of us are hard-wired to be paranoid about things falling from the sky,” wrote an editorialist in The Pittsburgh PostGazette. “Cold rain, rocks dropped by delinquents from highway overpasses and airshow accidents freak us out. They awaken in us that primal fear that thunderbolts were flung from heaven.”

Still, this satellite’s impending re-entry has not generated as much concern and good-humored fun as when the Skylab space station fell to Earth in July 1979. Skylab was much bigger — about the size of a house — while the current projectile is more along the lines of a city bus. When bits of Skylab fell in Western Australia, no one was injured, but local authorities did fine NASA $400 for littering.

A magnet for women?

Try a deep male voice

By Sindya N. Bhanoo New York Times News Service

It’s official: Women are drawn to low male voices, like the basso profundo of the actor James Earl Jones. And they are more likely to remember what the owners of those voices say to them.

Women are probably using this information to select mates, said Kevin Allan, a cognitive psychologist at the University of Aberdeen in Scotland and an author of a new study in the journal Memory & Cognition.

He and his colleagues showed women an image of an object while they listened to a computermanipulated version of a high- or low-pitched male or female voice say the object’s name. They then repeated this experiment with real male and female voices.

In both cases, women expressed a clear preference for low male voices and had the best memory of the images whose names were spoken in low voices.

Mate choice comes at a high cost to women, Allan said: pregnancy, childbirth and, often, the responsibility of acting as primary caregivers. For this reason, it is in a woman’s best interest to select a healthy, fit mate, and a deep voice may be a sign of masculinity, he said.

NASA via The Associated Press

NASA’s Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite, shown during its deployment in 1991, is expected to come crashing down through the atmosphere this afternoon. The satellite will not be passing over North America then, the space agency said.

Back then, John Belushi appeared on “Saturday Night Live,” maniacally ramming a handheld model of Skylab into a globe.

People threw parties, bought Skylab “crash helmets” and wore T-shirts with bulls-eye targets.

(The T-shirt wearers reasoned that the U.S. government could not hit the broad side of a barn; therefore by wearing a bulls-eye, they were safe.)

This time, there has been little if any merchandizing. Various websites have tried to track the progress of the descending satellite, and Space.com has assembled a list of the “worst space debris events of all time.” Those include fallout from the explosion of the space shuttle Columbia, which rained on parts of Texas and Louisiana in 2003, and the small chunk of a Delta 2 rocket booster that fluttered onto an Oklahoma woman, Lottie Williams, in 1997 — the only person known to have been hit by space debris.

Odds of anyone getting hit: 1 in 3,200 NASA has calculated a 1-in3,200 chance of anyone on Earth being hurt by its satellite’s death plunge.

“The funny thing is that I have a better chance of getting hit by this satellite than winning the lottery,” Chanan Carroll, a Baltimore rabbi, wrote on his Facebook page.

That was not true, even when there was a possibility of the satellite landing in Baltimore.

The odds of demise-by-satellite for any particular person among the world’s 7 billion people are much lower, on the order of 1-intrillions, said Nicholas Johnson, NASA’s expert on space debris at the Johnson Space Center in Houston.

By Thursday afternoon, NASA had narrowed the time of re-entry today to between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. The satellite circles the Earth four times in six hours, but none of those orbits today pass over North America. That increases the odds — still infinitesimal — for people living in areas like Africa, Asia, Australia and Europe that do lie along the trajectory.

Carroll, for one, thought that NASA’s reticence in narrowing down the impact site to be clever disaster management.

“I think that NASA knows exactly where and when it’s coming down,” he wrote. “If they let the word out, a thousand idiots will gather at the impact site, waiting to get whacked. And their lawyers can sue NASA ... Better to keep things quiet!”

The science of predicting where a tumbling satellite is going to fall is tricky. The Earth’s atmosphere puffs up and deflates depending on how strong the sun is shining on a particular day, and that phenomenon speeds or slows the rate of falling.

If a calculation is off by half an hour, the falling satellite has already traveled one-third of the way around the world.

Evidence of faster-than-light neutrinos puzzles scientists

By Dennis Overbye New York Times News Service

Roll over, Einstein?

The physics world is abuzz with news that a group of European physicists plans to announce today that it has clocked a burst of subatomic particles known as neutrinos breaking the cosmic speed limit — the speed of light — that was set by Albert Einstein in 1905.

If true, it is a result that would change the world. But that “if” is enormous.

Even before the European physicists had presented their results — in a paper to appear on the physics website www .arxiv.com and in a seminar at CERN, the European Center for Nuclear Research, today — a chorus of physicists had risen up on blogs and elsewhere arguing that it was way too soon to give up on Einstein and that there was probably some experimental error. Incredible claims require incredible evidence.

“These guys have done their level best, but before throwing Einstein on the bonfire, you would like to see an independent experiment,” said John Ellis, a CERN theorist who has published work on the speeds of neutrinos.

According to scientists familiar with the paper, the neutrinos raced from a particle accelerator at CERN outside Geneva, where they were created, to a cavern underneath Gran Sasso in Italy, a distance of about 450 miles, about 60 nanoseconds faster than it would take a light beam. That amounts to a speed greater than light by about .0025 percent.

Even this small deviation would open up the possibility of time travel and play havoc with longstanding notions of cause and effect. Einstein himself

— the author of modern physics, whose theory of relativity established the speed of light as the ultimate limit — said that if you could send a message faster than light, “You could send a telegram to the past.”

Alvaro DeRejula, a theorist at CERN, called the claim “flabbergasting.”

“If it is true, then we truly haven’t understood anything about anything,” he said, adding: “It looks too big to be true.

The correct attitude is to ask oneself what went wrong.”

The group that is reporting the results is known as OPERA, for Oscillation Project with Emulsion-Tracking Apparatus.

Antonio Ereditato, the physicist at the University of Bern who heads the group, agreed with DeRejula and others who expressed shock. He told the BBC that OPERA — after much internal discussion — had decided to put its results out there in order to get them scrutinized.

“My dream would be that another, independent experiment finds the same thing,” Ereditato said. “Then I would be relieved.”

Neutrinos are among the weirdest denizens of the weird quantum subatomic world.

Once thought to be massless and to travel at the speed of light, they can sail through walls and planets like wind through a screen door. Morever, they come in three varieties and can morph from one form to another as they travel along, an effect that the OPERA experiment was designed to detect by comparing 10-microsecond pulses of protons on one end with pulses of neutrinos at the other. DeRejula pointed out however, that it was impossible to identify which protons gave birth to which neutrino, leading to statistical uncertainties.

The Associated Press ile photo

Will Einstein’s theory be proved wrong? Scientists at the European Organization for Nuclear Research, say they have clocked subatomic particles traveling faster than light — a feat that, if true, would break a fundamental pillar of science, the idea that nothing is supposed to move faster than light.

REPUBLICAN DEBATE

Pope warns Germans not to ignore religion BERLIN — Pope Benedict XVI addressed Germany’s parliament in the historic Reichstag building Thursday, warning that politicians must not sacrifice ethics for power and evoking the Nazi excesses of his homeland as a lesson in history.

Amid scattered protests outside and a boycott by some lawmakers, Benedict began his first state visit to Germany in a bid to stem the tide of Catholics leaving the church while acknowledging the damage caused by the clerical sex abuse scandal.

The pope spoke for 20 minutes in the Reichstag, which was torched in 1933 in an incident used by Hitler to strengthen his grip on power.

“We Germans know from our own experience” what happens when power is corrupted, Benedict said, describing Nazis as a “highly organized band of robbers, capable of threatening the whole world and driving it to the edge of the abyss.”

‘Bloody Sunday’ kin to get compensation LONDON — The British government will compensate relatives of victims of the 1972 Northern Ireland shootings by British troops that became known as “Bloody Sunday,” the Defense Ministry said Thursday.

“We acknowledge the pain felt by these families for nearly 40 years, and that members of the armed forces acted wrongly,” a spokeswoman for the ministry said. “For that, the government is deeply sorry. We are in contact with the families’ solicitors and where there is a legal liability to pay compensation, we will do so.”

The announcement confirmed that the government was prepared to resolve claims by relatives of the 14 people who were killed by soldiers in a British parachute regiment as they marched in Londonderry on Jan. 30, 1972. Thirteen others were wounded on a day that became a bitter emblem of injustice over three decades of sectarian strife in Northern Ireland in a conflict that claimed more than 3,600 lives and spilled across Britain.

New leader elected for Israel’s Labor Party JERUSALEM — The election of a new leader of Israel’s historic but severely diminished Labor Party prompted talk of a possible revival Thursday. But analysts predicted a modest comeback in the best case, with a special emphasis on socioeconomic issues.

Shelly Yachimovich, 51, a former journalist and a Labor member of Parliament since 2006, defeated Amir Peretz, a former leader of the center-left Labor Party and a former union leader, in a runoff ballot Wednesday by 54 percent to 45 percent. Yachimovich is the seventh leader of Labor in a decade.

Dozens hurt by bombs in capital of Dagestan MOSCOW — A coordinated pair of explosions in the capital of Dagestan early Thursday killed at least one person and wounded dozens more in the violence-plagued republic in Russia’s North Caucasus region, officials said.

The first blast hit a police car, officials said, wounding four officers. The second, more powerful bomb, planted in or under a car, wounded police officers and rescuers who rushed to the scene.

Reports of the number hurt ranged from 30 to 60.

Cease-fire in Yemen may be falling apart SANAA, Yemen — A tenuous truce showed signs of falling apart Thursday in Yemen’s capital as clashes intensified between government forces and troops loyal to a military commander who defected months ago to protect anti-government protesters.

The cease-fire announced late Tuesday between the groups was always fragile; it was announced by the vice president, Abed Rabbo Mansour al-Hadi, but it was never clear that powerful military leaders agreed.

Republican presidential candidates Texas Gov. Rick Perry, left, and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney dominated the stage at Thursday’s Fox News/Google debate in Orlando, Fla.

Perry and Romney come out swinging

By Jeff Zeleny and Jim Rutenberg New York Times News Service

ORLANDO, Fla. — In their third debate in as many weeks, former Gov. Mitt Romney of Massachusetts and Gov. Rick Perry of Texas engaged in a sometimes heated back and forth over immigration, health care and entitlements, their rivalry dominating a stage that included seven other candidates struggling to catch up in the race for the Republican presidential nomination.

Romney and Perry arrived here with a strategic imperative to challenge the other’s consistency and conservative credentials. The tensions only grew as the night wore on, to the point where Jon Huntsman Jr., the former governor of Utah, joked that Romney and Perry were at risk of bludgeoning each other to death.

Romney sought to capitalize on the concern among many conservatives about Perry’s position on illegal immigration, harshly criticizing the Texas policy that allows illegal immigrants to qualify for in-state tuition rates at public colleges and universities.

“That just doesn’t make sense to me,” Romney said, noting that illegal immigrants save as much as $22,000 a year in tuition breaks that outof-state citizens do not get.

Offering an impassioned defense of that policy — and receiving boos from a segment of the audience — Perry did not back down, saying, “If you say that we should not educate children that have come into our state for no other reason than they’ve been brought here by no fault of their own, I don’t think you have a heart.”

The debate, held at the Orange County Convention Center and sponsored by Fox News, Google and the Republican Party of Florida, once

again featured robust audience participation, including questions submitted via YouTube. The audience of 5,000 at times responded loudly, including boos during a question from a gay solider about the repeal of the “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy regarding gay and lesbian service members.

And while the Fox News moderators sought to engage all of the candidates, the exchanges between Romney and Perry — standing side by side on the stage — overshadowed the others.

At one point, Romney cited a passage from Perry’s recent book, “Fed Up!” and told the audience the Texas governor had suggested that state or local governments be allowed to run their own Social Security programs.

He accused Perry of running away from his own words.

“There’s a Rick Perry out there that’s saying the federal government shouldn’t be in the pension business,” Romney said. “You better find that Rick Perry and get him to stop saying that.”

Perry hit back by accusing Romney of editing his book “No Apologies” between printings to remove a passage saying that the health care plan he instituted in Massachusetts — considered a model for President Barack Obama’s overhaul — was good for the nation.

Romney had managed to emerge relatively unharmed from the past few debates, and the pressure was on Perry to change that. If Perry’s key line was meant to be a solid punch to the jaw, Perry seemed to rush it and stumble a bit.

“Is it the Mitt Romney that was on the side of — against the Second Amendment before he was for the Second Amendment? Was it — was before — he was before the social programs from the standpoint of — he was for standing up for Roe vs. Wade before he was against first — Roe vs. Wade?” he said. “I mean we’ll wait until tomorrow to see which Mitt Romney we’re really

Census: Americans struggling to rebound after recession Bloomberg News WASHINGTON — Americans flipped more burgers, rented more homes, used lessexpensive heating fuel and asked for more government help last year, the U.S. Census Bureau says.

More people worked fewer hours for less money. Fewer couples got married, and more grandparents cared for their grandchildren. Fewer children attended preschool, and more adults enrolled in graduate school than in 2009.

An annual survey released Thursday, coupled with census data last week showing the highest poverty rates and lowest incomes in a generation, offers a vivid portrait of how people are struggling to cope after the worst recession of their lifetimes. Washington lawmakers remain deadlocked over how to respond.

“It’s getting worse and

worse,” said Elmi Osman, 38, of Clarkston, Ga., who began driving a taxicab after being laid off from his job at Hertz in 2008. “I don’t have a choice. I have an associate’s degree in engineering, and I cannot find another job.”

The data were released as part of the American Community Survey, an annual questionnaire sent to 3 million homes that replaces the census “long form,” which yielded results once a decade. The annual figures are used to guide the distribution of more than $400 billion in state and federal spending.

The figures show that the 8.8 million American households earning less than $10,000 annually remained almost twice the number of those earning more than $200,000.

More than 13.6 million households, about one of every eight, needed government help to put food on the table in 2010, an increase of 16.2 percent from 2009.

talking to tonight.”

A late attempt at humor seemed to go astray as well, when Perry was asked which of the candidates on stage he would pick as his vicepresidential nominee. Speaking of former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, he said he would “mate him up” with Herman Cain, a former business executive, to make a perfect political partner.

For his part, Huntsman helped point up significant differences in the candidate’s views of U.S. involvement abroad. He said it was time to focus on the withdrawal of most U.S. troops in Afghanistan. “After 10 years of fighting the war on terror, people are reading to bring our troops home from Afghanistan,” Huntsman said. “This country has given its all. We’re going to have to do that in every corner of the world.”

Former Sen. Rick Santorum sharply disagreed, saying: “We should be fighting wars to win, not fighting wars for politics.” It was a role that Santorum played throughout the debate, chastising several of his Republican rivals at different points in the evening and challenging their conservative credentials.

Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota has struggled to break through at the debates.

But she told Republicans here on Thursday that they “don’t have to settle” for a candidate who does not exemplify their values.

“President Obama’s numbers are the lowest they’ve ever been,” Bachmann told members of the Faith and Freedom Coalition, who were on hand for the debate.

“And I’m here to tell you, they are going lower further.”

The other candidates, including Rep. Ron Paul of Texas, worked to highlight their differences with the leading contenders.

Former Gov. Gary Johnson of New Mexico was participating in a debate for the first time since May because he met the required threshold of registering one percentage point support in national polls.

WASHINGTON — With the economy sputtering, the warring factions of Congress have lurched toward gridlock over the usually noncontroversial process of approving disaster aid and keeping the government from shutting down.

The GOP-dominated House early today muscled through a $3.7 billion disaster aid measure along with a stopgap spending bill to keep the government running past next Friday. The narrow 219-203 tally reversed an embarrassing loss for House GOP leaders that came Wednesday at the hands of rebellious tea party Republicans.

Even before the House vote, however, the leader of the Senate promised that majority Democrats will scuttle the measure as soon as it reaches the chamber today. Democrats there want a much larger in-

fusion of disaster aid and they’re angry over cuts totaling $1.6 trillion from clean energy programs — and the strong-arm tactics being tried by the House.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., said the House plan “is not an honest effort at compromise. ... It will be rejected by the Senate.”

The combination of events promises to push the partisan war into the weekend and could increase the chances that the government’s main disaster aid account at the Federal Emergency Management Agency might run dry early next week.

More broadly, the renewed partisanship over what should be routine moves to help disaster victims and prevent a government shutdown sends a discouraging sign as a bitterly divided Washington looks ahead to more significant debates on President Barack Obama’s jobs plan and efforts by a congressional supercommittee to slash deficits.

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad spoke a day after Iranian authorities released two young American men who were jailed for two years after hiking into Iranian territory. The move appeared timed to improve the atmosphere for his visit, but it had no apparent impact on the tone of his address.

Ahmadinejad denounces U.S.; diplomats walk out

By Paul Richter McClatchy-Tribune News Service

UNITED NATIONS — With his now-familiar mix of bombast, politics and theater, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on Thursday denounced the United States and its European allies as colonialist “slave masters” intent on wrecking the world economy, prompting dozens of Western diplomats to walk out.

As in previous years, Ahmadinejad used his appearance at the U.N. General Assembly to condemn the United States and its allies for causing centuries of misery. He charged that they were responsible for the suffering caused by slavery, world wars, nuclear attacks and the current global economic turmoil.

His presence also sparked protests outside the U.N. But

with his influence apparently ebbing in Tehran, and his speech overshadowed by the Palestinian Authority’s bid for U.N. recognition, the atmosphere surrounding Ahmadinejad appeared less tense.

Ahmadinejad had no comment on the Palestinian issue, keeping instead to his usual themes and invective. He accused Israel of causing “60 years of war,” and railed that European nations used the Holocaust “as the excuse to pay ransom or fines to Zionists.”

Delegations from Israel and Canada simply skipped the speech, one of scores given by world leaders during the U.N.’s annual gathering in New York.

Pakistan Continued from A1 These included a truck bombing at a NATO outpost south of Kabul on Sept. 10, which killed at least five people and wounded 77 coalition soldiers — one of the worst toll for foreign troops in a single attack in the war — as well as the embassy assault that killed 16 Afghan police officers and civilians.

“With ISI support, Haqqani operatives planned and conducted that truck bomb attack, as well as the assault on our embassy,” Mullen said in a hearing of the Senate Armed Services Committee. “We also have credible evidence that they were behind the June 28th attack against the Intercontinental Hotel in Kabul and a host of other smaller but effective operations.”

In short, he said, “the Haqqani network acts as a veritable arm of Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence agency.”

His remarks were part of a deliberate effort by U.S. officials to ratchet up pressure on Pakistan and perhaps pave the way for more U.S. drone strikes or even cross-border raids into Pakistan to root out insurgents from their havens. Military officials in the U.S. refused to discuss what steps they were prepared to take, although Mullen’s statement made

Meth Continued from A1 Mannix said the CODE team received a tip early Wednesday that a large quantity of drugs would be on board an Estrella Blanca commercial bus heading north on U.S. Highway 97 from California.

Detectives located the bus as it was approaching Madras, and arranged to search it when it reached a scheduled stop in Madras early in the afternoon.

A suitcase containing 13 pounds of marijuana was located by detectives, and dogs from the Redmond Police Department and Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office identified a second suitcase containing the methamphetamine, packaged inside 25 plastic screw-top canisters that had been shrink-wrapped.

During the search of the bus, detectives observed a man acting suspiciously, and apprehended him when he began walking north in an apparent attempt to avoid officers. The man, Juan Luis Rangel Cancino, 20, of Federal Way, Wash., was arrested on charges of unlawful possession of methamphetamine and unlawful delivery of methamphetamine. As of Thursday night, he was being held at the Deschutes County Jail on $250,000 bail.

The CODE team does not believe Rangel Cancino had any involvement with the marijuana found on the bus, Mannix said.

No arrests were made in connection with the suitcase of marijuana, though Mannix said investigations are into both packages are ongoing.

High-intensity area Deschutes County is classified as a High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area by the federal government, as U.S. highways 97, 20 and 26 are all heavily used routes for moving illegal substances around the Pacific Northwest. Mannix said it’s unusual for traffickers to use a bus rather than a private vehicle for transporting drugs.

The $1 million street value estimate assumes the methamphetamine seized Wednesday is sold in half-ounce quantities, and is not cut with additional substances to boost the weight of the drug sold to the end user.

Mannix said tests to determine the purity of Wednesday’s seizure have not been completed, though it is likely such a large quantity is relatively pure when compared to the cut product sold to individual methamphetamine users.

The CODE team is made up of personnel from various Central Oregon law enforcement agencies.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement has placed a hold on Rangel Cancino, barring him from being released from custody until his citizenship status can be determined. He is scheduled to appear in Deschutes County Circuit Court for an arraignment on Tuesday.

clear that taking on the Haqqanis had become an urgent priority.

On Thursday, Rehman Malik, Pakistan’s interior minister, rejected accusations by the United States of ISI involvement in the attacks in Afghanistan. “If you say that it is ISI involved in that attack, I categorically deny it,” he said in an interview with Reuters.

“We have no such policy to attack or aid attack through Pakistani forces or through any Pakistani assistance.”

He also said his government would “not allow” a U.S. operation aimed at the Haqqani network in North Waziristan, a remote part of Pakistan’s lawless tribal region.

Malik seemed to indicate that U.S. officials had threatened on Tuesday in meetings in Washington with the head of the ISI, Maj. Gen. Ahmed Shuja Pasha, that U.S. troops were prepared to cross the border from Afghanistan to attack Haqqani militants. A U.S. official would say only that David H. Petraeus, the new director of the Central Intelligence Agency, told Pasha that the CIA would continue its campaign of drone strikes against the Haqqanis in Pakistan and pursue them in Afghanistan.

“The Pakistan nation will not allow the boots on our ground, never,” Malik said in an interview with Reuters. “Our government is already cooperating with the U.S.

— but they also must respect our sovereignty.”

A senior U.S. official said Thursday that no decisions had been made on actions that the Obama administration might take against the Haqqanis.

Covert raids by the U.S. into Pakistan are rare — only two, including the raid that killed Osama bin Laden in May, have become public — but some U.S. intelligence officials argue that more aggressive ground raids in Pakistan are necessary. The United States gives Pakistan more than $2 billion in security assistance annually, although this summer the Obama administration decided to suspend or in some cases cancel about a third of that aid this year. Altogether, about $800 million in military aid and equipment could be affected.

The suspension was intended to chasten Pakistan for expelling U.S. military trainers this year and to press its army to fight militants more effectively. It was also decided after the bin Laden raid in Pakistan, where the leader of al-Qaida had been living comfortably near a top military academy.

Mullen is to retire at the end of this month, and coming from him the statements carried exceptional weight. For years he has been the U.S. military official leading the effort to improve cooperation with the Pakistanis. But rela-

tions have reached a nadir since the bin Laden raid. Officials in Pakistan were angered that they had not been told of the raid in advance, and questions remain about whether Pakistan’s intelligence was sheltering bin Laden.

Although U.S. military officials believe that the ISI is in many cases directing the Haqqani network to attack United States forces in Afghanistan, they did not go so far as to say on Thursday that the ISI specifically directed the assault on the U.S. Embassy. U.S. military officials did not describe the kind of support they believe the ISI gave the Haqqani network for the embassy attack, and also offered no evidence for their claim. In July 2008, the United States was able to determine that the ISI was behind the bombing of the Indian Embassy in Kabul based on intercepted communications of ISI officers.

Mullen testified alongside Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, who told the committee that the attack on the embassy and the assassination this week of Burhanuddin Rabbani, the leader of Afghanistan’s High Peace Council and a former president of Afghanistan, were “a sign of weakness in the insurgency.” He cast the attacks as signs that the Taliban had shifted to high-profile targets in an effort to disrupt the progress that the U.S. military had made.

THE BULLETIN • Friday, September 23, 2011 A5

SAT Continued from A1 Bend-La Pine’s section averages were close to flat over the past two years.

In 2010, students averaged 559 on math, but the scored dipped by four points last year.

Writing scores in the district declined by one point during that time. Reading scores did not change.

Beginning in middle school, district students take what are essentially precursors to the ACT test, which is an alternative to the SAT. Those early tests are designed to get students “college-ready,” according to district spokeswoman Julianne Repman.

“We believe our SAT scores outpace the state and nation in part because we’ve had (students) taking those tests,” she said.

Performance varied across the district, with Summit High School scoring highest on critical reading and writing. Mountain View High School’s math score of 573 was the district’s highest. In the district, Bend High School ranked second in reading and third in both writing and math.

La Pine High School had the lowest scores in the district,

but it also had the fewest testtakers, with 17. The three large Bend high schools each had at least 121 students take the SAT. Reversing a two-year trend, more Bend-La Pine students took the SAT in 2010-11 than in the previous year. SAT had been on the decline after 490 students took it in 2008. In 2010, 372 students took the test, and 436 took it last year.

Bend-La Pine pays for students to take the ACT once but does not do the same for the SAT, according to Bend High School Principal H.D. Weddel.

Because every district high school student takes the ACT, those test results are a major tool for Weddel and others as they evaluate student performance. ACT results, for example, could lead Weddel to institute more math sections.

Still, Bend High offers the test at the school and, last year, students took the test 121 times.

Though not as broadly useful, Weddel studies his school’s SAT results.

“We’re going to encourage it, but because we have the ACT, the (SAT) is not on the radar as it once was,” Weddel said.

— New York Times News Service

nonprofit group that opposes the death penalty.

Davis’ execution and the crusade it ignited ultimately bring to bear larger questions of a longing for an end to seemingly endless appeals.

William Otis, a former federal prosecutor and special White House counsel under President George W. Bush, said “there has to be finality for any system that’s going to work,” but added: “To say that there has to be finality is not to say that things should be rushed. The primary duty of courts is to get it right.”

A problem for Davis’ defenders, he said, is that judges tend to look at recantations, especially from witnesses who are in prison, “with a flinty eye.”

Otis added: “The question is not whether you can avoid errors. The only realistic question in an adult mind is which set of errors you’re going to accept.

You have to be mature and honest about it, and understand there is the risk of executing an innocent person.”

To Eric Freedman, a professor at Hofstra Law School and an expert on the death penalty, the desire for finality is “understandable in some respects,” but the process of reversing convictions places too high a bar in front of defendants. At trial, he said, the state has the burden of proving them guilty, and if “one reasonable juror would have had a reasonable doubt, that would have gotten you acquittal.”

A federal obligation?

Local stakeholders maintained that the federal government, which owns half the land west of Denver, has an obligation to compensate local governments for stunting their tax bases and precluding development on federally owned land.

Continued from A1 Now, to qualify for the program, a person needs to be 62 years old and have an annual taxable income of no more than $39,500. Anyone whose net worth exceeds $500,000 is ineligible. A person needs to have lived in the home at least five years and have homeowners insurance.

The change that will affect 1,700 seniors involves reverse mortgages — anyone who has one is booted from the program.

A reverse mortgage allows homeowners to use equity in their home to receive cash. Repayment is made when the person dies or leaves the home.

Telfer said she was hoping this week lawmakers would discuss ways to help homeowners who risk defaulting on their loans and possibly losing their homes if they can’t pay their property taxes.

“If you don’t pay your taxes Nov. 15 you’re in default,” she said to her fellow lawmakers on Wednesday. “So, we’re not getting any input or answer to that today?”

Telfer said she’s received calls from frantic constituents. The only suggestion, she said, other than paying the taxes, is to look for a nonprofit for help.

She said she’s had conversations with NeighborImpact, a local nonprofit whose goal is to help people out of poverty, to alert them to what’s happening with the hopes employees there can help seniors. One thought, she said, is the nonprofit could help seniors pay their utility bills.

“We’re trying to find some programs, to find some assistance so that can free up their money to pay these (taxes),” Telfer said.

Kenneth Hargis, 71, is one of the seniors who will owe a substantial amount of money he wasn’t prepared to pay.

“With very short notice, we’re

in a situation where we have to find a source to meet the taxation amount,” he said.

He estimates he will owe several hundred dollars, which he does not have.

Rosemary Hardin, public information officer for the Oregon Department of Revenue, said the agency’s “hands are tied” when it comes to helping people.

“We can’t make any changes to the law — that’s the Legislature’s job — so unfortunately this is going to affect a lot of people,” Hardin said. “What we’re trying to do is notify people as quickly as we can to let them know if they qualify under these new, stricter rules.”

The best advice she can give, she said, is for people to contact their state legislators and let them know how the change is affecting them.

been a teachable moment for America’s religious leadership: that the death penalty is so awash with bias and errors that there’s no morally acceptable alternative but repealing it,” Dear said.

But can the debate over the death penalty even be called a national conversation, or is it simply two factions shouting past each other? Does it change hearts and minds, or harden advocates in their positions? Brawls, after all, do not persuade.

This execution underscores the uncomfortable relationship Americans have with the death penalty. A Gallup poll last October showed that 64 percent of those surveyed supported it for those convicted of murder, a level that had been relatively consistent for the previous seven years. Support had been higher — 80 percent in 1994 — but it has slipped, in part because of the hundreds of convictions overturned because of DNA evidence.

Gallup has asked whether people favor life imprisonment without parole as an alternative to the death penalty, and those surveyed are almost evenly split, with 49 percent supporting capital punishment and 46 percent preferring life imprisonment.

Jurors have shown a growing reluctance to vote for the ultimate penalty; in 1994, 314 people were placed on death row, but that number has dropped by roughly two-thirds since, according to figures compiled by the Death Penalty Information Center, a

profound divergence in opinion concerning capital punishment in the United States and Western Europe, where the death penalty is no longer a topic of debate.

“The United States are a very democratic country, but these are barbaric practices,” said Laurent Fabius, a prominent Socialist lawmaker and former French prime minister, speaking on Europe 1 radio.

Robert Badinter, who as justice minister oversaw the abolition of the death penalty in France in 1981, called Davis’ execution a “defeat for humanity.”

“This affair will remain as a stain on the justice system of the United States,” Badinter said.

PARIS — Even in a region long disdainful of U.S. attitudes toward the death penalty, public officials, editorial writers and activists across Western Europe reacted with fury Thursday to news that Troy Davis was executed in Georgia on Wednesday night.

Despite the divisive sovereign debt crisis, the sagging economy and conflict in the Middle East, the media in Britain, France and elsewhere devoted continuous coverage to the Davis case this week, emphasizing that Davis, a black man, had been convicted of killing a white police officer in a Southern state. Many commentators denounced U.S. justice as brutal and flawed.

More than anything, however, the outcry underlined the

He said he felt it was a little disingenuous of the Forest Service, which noted that President Barack Obama has recommended extending the Secure Rural Schools payments for another five years, to act as if the program was already paid for. Without a revenue stream, and with a budget- and deficitconscious Congress, the funds would come out of the Forest Service budget, which can hardly afford it, he said.

Rep. Peter Defazio, D-Springfield, a member of the subcommittee, told the witnesses that Curry County officials had written to Gov. John Kitzhaber, informing him that if a ballot measure to raise property taxes did not pass during the next election, the county would not have enough money to provide its state-mandated services, such as public safety.

“At this year’s levels, we’re already seeing counties that can’t meet their most basic obligations,” he said after the hearing. “When you throw in the added uncertainty of future revenues (from SRS payments or timber proceeds), it just is impossible for them to plan.

These counties are on the brink.”

After decades of litigation, the final legal ruling allowing the execution of Troy Davis was a one-sentence order from the U.S. Supreme Court so terse that it could have fit neatly into a Twitter message with room to spare.

But it is hardly the last word on the case, or in the national debate over the death penalty.

The finality of Davis’ sentence, and the outpouring of protest worldwide, leaves in its wake more than its share of questions — many that go beyond the facts of the case to encompass fundamental issues of capital punishment. Because Mark MacPhail, the Savannah, Ga., police officer he was convicted of killing in 1989, was white and Davis was black, the progress of Davis’ case over two decades widened fault lines on the death penalty and, in particular, over the question of whether a black person in the South could be guaranteed the same justice as a white one.

The nature of those doubts and the arguments for Davis’ innocence could be, and will be, debated endlessly. And while no judge who reviewed the minimal physical evidence and the testimony and witness recantations ever overturned Davis’ conviction — one judge dismissed the defense arguments as “smoke and mirrors” — activists portrayed the case as a symbol of the fallibility of eyewitness identification, of the intransigence of the justice system and of its unwillingness to correct errors — and even as a failure of the nation itself.

“The execution of an innocent man crystallizes in the most sickening way the vast systemic injustices that plague our death-penalty system,” Denny LeBoeuf, director of the Capital Punishment Project at the American Civil Liberties Union, said in a statement.

Amnesty International, which mobilized much of the opposition to the Davis execution, pledged to redouble its efforts against the death penalty in the U.S., and the executive committee of the NAACP voted this week to raise the death penalty to the forefront of its list of priorities in future advocacy.

Stephen Dear, executive director of People of Faith Against the Death Penalty, an interfaith advocacy group based in Carrboro, N.C., said his group also planned to use the momentum generated by religious leaders who opposed the Davis execution to galvanize broader opposition. “This has

desire to move away from direct annual Secure Rural Schools payments in exchange for sustainable economies based on management of our federal lands,” said Commissioner Ron Walter of Chelan County, Wash.

“Elected county officials would prefer to share in the revenue from production from healthy forests that are part of our community fabric.”

Although the population is growing in the West, the growth in per-pupil spending in the East routinely outpaces Western states, said Utah state Sen. Stephen Urquhart.

“This is simply the result of rapid growth, an artificially low property tax base, (and) political restraints on economic activity,” he said.

Rep. Greg Walden, R-Hood River, attended the hearing and said he was glad the Natural Resources committee had produced the draft as a way to start the discussion on how to replace the current system of county payments.

An anti-death penalty protester is helped off the ground after hearing about a delay of the execution by the U.S. Supreme Court for Georgia death row inmate Troy Davis in Jackson, Ga., on Wednesday.

Davis was later executed for the 1989 killing of off-duty Savannah officer Mark MacPhail.

“By defining the ‘trust’ as an annual revenue stream, rather than as an income-producing asset, the Forest Service will be forced to sell more timber during periods of low demand for wood and less timber when demand for wood is high — opposite to the behavior expected from a prudent trustee or private landowner,” he said.

B U S I N E SS IN BRIEF Lawyer defends role in SEC Madoff case David Becker, the former general counsel of the Securities and Exchange Commission, told Congress on Thursday that he had done nothing wrong in handling the agency’s work related to Bernard L. Madoff’s Ponzi scheme.

Becker, testifying before two congressional panels, said he had done “precisely what I was supposed to do” in disclosing to SEC officials his connection to a Madoff account. He is under scrutiny because he advised the agency on formulas to compensate Madoff clients, even though he had been a beneficiary of the scheme.

The connection was examined in a report released this week by the inspector general of the SEC, H. David Kotz, who referred Becker’s actions to the Justice Department for an investigation of possible violations of conflict-of-interest laws.

The six convinced an audience of about 100 at a Central Oregon PubTalk that they should take part in the BVC’s first-ever concept-stage competition on Oct. 14 at the Tower Theatre in Bend.

Audience members attending the event at McMenamins Old St. Francis School in downtown Bend were asked to choose their top five companies out of 12 presenting, but a tie resulted in six

The dozen picked to present on Thursday were whittled down from a list of 26, said Dayna Dudkowski, events and membership manager at Economic Development for Central Oregon, which manages the BVC. The concept-stage competition and award are new to the BVC this year. The past seven annual conferences solely provided money to more developed companies, those that could show revenues.

Some of those selected Thursday presented Webbased business ideas; two had transportation themes and two were health-care related.

Enticed by last year’s high wheat prices, many farmers in Central Oregon and across the country plowed up hay fields this year and planted wheat, leading to a nationwide hay shortage and near-record prices, according to Mylen Bohle, crops specialist with the Oregon State University Extension Service in Central Oregon.

Bohle said the hay shortage has been exacerbated by crop damage caused by severe drought in the southwest.

Ranchers desperate for feed to keep their cattle from dying in Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico and other southwestern states have been calling for the first time in memory to buy hay from farmers in Central and Eastern Oregon, said Bohle and Greg Mohnen, foreman at McGinnis Ranch in Tumalo.

“I am getting calls from multiple states looking for hay,” said Mohnen, who is also president of the Central Oregon Hay Forage Association.

Statewide, farmers are growing about 35,000 fewer acres of hay this year than in 2010, according to the National Agricultural Statistics Service crop

estimates.

Statewide, the service reported the average price for all hay in August was $225 per ton, up from $156 per ton in August 2010.

Locally, officials interviewed Wednesday and Thursday said hay prices are running $50 to $100 or more per ton above last year.

Examples include supreme alfalfa hay, sold primarily to dairies for $285-$300 per ton, up from $145 to $200 last year; top quality orchard grass hay mix selling for $265-$275 per ton, up from $125-$155; and utility hay, which has been rained on or bleached out, going for around $180 per ton, up from $75-$125 per ton last year.

Those prices are based on hay sold this summer by growers in Crook, Deschutes and Jefferson counties.

“Dairy (milk) prices are up 50 percent over last year, so dairies can afford to pay a little more for hay,” Bohle said. The increase is also contributing to the rise in hay prices.

Mohnen said the higher hay prices will help farmers cover the rising costs of fuel, fertilizer, water, electricity and farm machinery.

SAN FRANCISCO — Facebook, the Web’s biggest social network, is where you go to see what your friends are up to. Now it wants to be a force that shapes what you watch, hear, read and buy.

The company announced new features here on Thursday that could unleash a torrent of updates about what you and your Facebook friends are doing online: Frank is watching “The Hangover,” Jane is listening to Jay-Z, Mark is running a race wearing Nike sneakers, and so forth. That in turn, Facebook and its dozens of partner companies hope, will influence what Frank and Jane and Mark’s friends consume.

LOS ANGELES — Hewlett-Packard Co. — the computer maker rocked by financial missteps, corporate espionage and allegations of sexual harassment in the executive suite — has placed its fate in the hands of an unlikely savior.

Meg Whitman.

The California GOP gubernatorial candidate and one-woman powerhouse who transformed eBay Inc. into a Web giant has been tapped to lead the Silicon Meg Whitman Valley titan back to health and hopefully put an end to a decade of corporate dysfunction.

It’s going to be a herculean task others have failed to achieve. In just the past 13 months, HP’s board of directors has fired two chief executives after they steered the company into some of its recent woes.

Now those directors have turned to Whitman, who joined the board eight months ago.

position than most to grow,” said Alan McQuaid, chief economist for the brokerage firm Bloxham in Dublin. “Only Estonia in the 17 eurozone countries performed better than us.

We have made serious inroads in getting back to where we want to be.”

Both agricultural and industrial output were up compared to the same period last year, and a scheme to scrap old cars helped boost domestic demand.

But Ireland is by no means out of danger. The same factors that bolstered growth in the first half of the year — a reliance on exports and an openness to the global economy — make it highly vulnerable to external shocks.

With the economic outlook worsening in Ireland’s biggest trading partners, the United States and the European Union, analysts warn that figures for the second half of 2011 are likely to drop off.

And the euro debt crisis continues to promote uncertainty in the region. All eyes remain on Greece, where the government earlier this week announced yet more spending cuts, tax increases and layoffs.

The measures are aimed at wrestling the country’s budget into shape and to qualify for its next batch of rescue loans, even though many economists believe they will choke off growth and mire Athens further in a debt trap.

Amid ongoing protests and strikes over Greece’s financial plight, Prime Minister George Papandreou said the new costcutting plan was vital for his country to get its books in order and to stave off a chaotic default.

LONDON — Amid tanking stocks, fears of a Greek default and the risk of another global recession, a small beacon of hope shone out from a quiet corner of Europe on Thursday: Bailed-out Ireland is showing promising signs of a comeback.

The Irish economy grew by a stronger-than-expected 1.6 percent in the second quarter this year, easily surpassing European heavyweights such as Germany and France. The news fueled hopes that a modest recovery is under way after three painful years of economic contraction.

It was the second consecutive quarter of growth for the Irish economy, which, despite the real-estate crash that killed the so-called “Celtic Tiger,” continues to be a magnet for dynamic multinational companies such as Microsoft and Google.

The figures released by Ireland’s Central Statistics Office reinforced the view of many experts that, of the three eurozone countries forced to seek international rescue loans, only the Emerald Isle enjoys the right conditions at the moment for a return to economic health.

Like Greece and Portugal, Ireland has had to endure several rounds of brutal austerity measures to bring down a runaway public budget deficit. But unlike those two other bailout recipients, Ireland boasts an open economy powered by exports, foreign investment and an educated, English-speaking workforce.

“International investors are looking at Ireland, and they’re recognizing that in the longerterm outlook, we’re in a better

SAN FRANCISCO — Throughout the information age, the corporate IT department has stood at the chokepoint of office technology with a firm hand on what equipment and software employees use in the workplace.

They are now in retreat. Employees are bringing in the technology they use at home and demanding the IT department accommodate them. The IT department often complies.

Some companies have even surrendered to what is being called the consumerization of IT. At Kraft Foods, the IT department’s involvement in choosing technology for employees is limited to handing out a stipend.

Employees use the money to buy whatever laptop they want from Best Buy, Amazon.com or the local Apple store.

“We heard from people saying, ‘How come I have better equipment at home?’” said Mike Cunningham, chief technology officer for Kraft Foods. “We said, hey, we can address that.”

Encouraging employees to buy their own laptops, or bring their mobile phones and iPads from home, is gaining traction in the workplace. A survey published Thursday by Forrester Research found that 48 percent of information workers buy smartphones for work without considering what their IT department supports. By being more flexible, companies are hoping workers will be more comfortable with their devices and therefore more productive.

“Bring your own device” policies, as they are called, are also shifting the balance of power among electronics makers. Manufacturers good at selling to consumers are increasingly gaining the upper hand, while those focused on bulk corporate sales are slipping.

The phenomenon is upending the corporate market, which has traditionally hinged on electronics makers cultivating tight relationships with IT departments. Dell, Hewlett-Packard and Research in Motion, maker of the BlackBerry, have long dominated the workplace, but Apple and its consumer-friendly blockbusters — the iPhone, iPad and MacBook — have made major inroads.

It’s not just electronics. A variety of online services that were originally aimed at consumers

First Solar won’t meet deadline for U.S. loan

By Matthew L. Wald New York Times News Service

First Solar, a major solar panel manufacturer, said Thursday that it would not be able to accept a partial loan guarantee of $1.93 billion for a giant solar farm in San Luis Obispo County, Calif., because it could not meet the statutory deadline of Sept. 30 to complete the Energy Department’s requirements.

The company said it had two other solar farms with conditional loan guarantees that “remain in the DOE process.” It did not say if it expected those to be completed.

They total $2.56 billion.

According to the Energy Department, loan guarantees for solar farms pose less risk than those for manufacturing plants because the output of the solar farms can be put under contract for years to come. But House Republicans have publicly warned the Energy Department not to rush through loan approvals as the deadline approaches.

The warning came during the House Energy and Commerce Committee investigation of the bankruptcy of Solyndra, a solar equipment manufacturer that took $528 million in loans from the Treasury before collapsing.

Daniel Poneman, the deputy secretary of energy, said the department had no flexibility because the stimulus act required construction to begin by Sept. 30.

Google is hoping people using its Gmail and Google Docs products will produce a guerrilla movement inside corporations strong enough to displace Microsoft and its Office suite of software.

Skype, the Internet calling service that started as a way to call friends at no charge, is pushing into the workplace. Dropbox, originally pitched as a way for people to store and share personal documents online, has also gained a foothold in businesses.

“You shouldn’t reject things that make employees more productive, and if those things happen to be consumer technologies, so be it,” said Ted Schadler, an analyst with Forrester Research.

they are in the acceptance and ‘How can we help?’ stage,” said Schadler, who co-wrote the book “Empowered,” which addresses consumer technology in the workplace. “What broke the camel’s back was the iPad, because executives brought it into the company and said, ‘Hey, you’ve got to support this.’”

Letting workers bring their iPhones and iPads to work can also save companies money. In some cases, employees pay for equipment themselves and seek tech help from store staff rather than their company’s IT department. “You can basically outsource your IT department to Apple,” said Ben Reitzes, an analyst with Barclays Capital.

Warming up to it

BYOD pros, cons

Corporate IT departments often resist allowing consumer technology on their networks because of security concerns. Adding a hodgepodge of devices and services also complicates their job.

But IT departments are gradually warming to the idea simply because their bosses left them little choice. The IT staff may grieve for their lost power, but they do it. “They’re over the denial and anger stage, and now

A BYOD program at Citrix Systems, a software maker that also helps its clients implement such programs, saves the company about 20 percent on each laptop over three years. Of the 1,000 or so employees in Citrix’s program, 46 percent have bought Mac computers, according to Paul Martine, Citrix’s chief information officer. “That was a little bit of a surprise.”

There are downsides. Employees who want electronics that

cost more than their companies are willing to pay or who desire devices like iPads that often fail to qualify for a stipend, don’t like the additional expense of buying their own devices. Nor do all workers look fondly on spending their weekend at Best Buy to get a laptop fixed (unpaid, of course.)

Some financial firms blacklist Facebook, among others, to ensure that all conversations take place on approved services that can be archived.

“Bring your own device” is not for every company. Because of security concerns and data retention laws, some firms like Wells Fargo do not let employees connect to corporate networks with their personal electronics. Protecting the bank’s customers is more important than any benefit from letting employees use their personal devices for business, said Jim Spicer, chief information officer of corporate technology and data for the company.

But Wells Fargo, like many companies, has expanded the choice of corporate-owned devices that it issues to employees to include more consumer-oriented products.

“The biggest challenge we have today is making sure that we don’t chase every device that comes along,” Spicer said.

ernor’s race, she was soon hired by the powerful and well-connected Silicon Valley venture capital firm Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers. From there, she joined HP’s board, arriving during a period of instability following Apotheker’s appointment, which analysts said came after a hasty executive search that lacked adequate due diligence.

Investors criticized the board for seemingly repeating that mistake by choosing Whitman without an extensive search for a candidate to replace Apotheker, a criticism Lane rebutted, telling investors: “I can’t think of a name out there today I would select over Meg.” “If you’re the board, you have to do something that’s immediate, that’s bold,” said Michael Robinson, chain of Levick Strategic Communications’ corporate and public affairs practice group.

“You have to stop the bleeding with your shareholders, your customers, your employees. And sometimes it takes someone bigger than life to do that.”

Whitman grew up in the wealthy enclave of Lloyd Harbor, N.Y., the youngest of three. Her father, Hendricks Hallett Whitman, was a World War II veteran who worked in the financial industry. During the war, her mother, Margaret Whitman, traveled to New Guinea with the American Red Cross to fix airplane and jeep engines.

Whitman has spent a lifetime in business, shepherding and selling some of America’s most valu-

able brands: Ivory soap, Keds, Mr. Potato Head, eBay. Whitman gained her reputation by guiding eBay’s ascent to become one of the best-known online companies in the world.

Her tenure earned her enormous praise, helping cement her as one of the most famous technology leaders of the dot-com era.

But her time with eBay came with controversy, too, particularly with a number of less-than-stellar acquisitions, including Internet phone service Skype and auction house Butterfield & Butterfield.

In the last few years before she left eBay, the company’s meteoric growth slowed and its stock price faltered.

Whitman’s political aspirations followed a similar path. A darling of the Republicans, she jumped into the 2010 California governor’s race with a pragmatic drive and an enormous political war chest heavily backed by her personal fortune.

Jeff Randle, a senior adviser to Whitman in that campaign, said she carefully weighed her decision to accept the CEO job. One drawback: Whitman has been spending a lot of time supporting Mitt Romney in his 2012 presidential bid, and had focused much of her time and energy recently in the political realm.

“She weighed the negatives against the positives,” and there were a number of negatives, Randle said. But “she loves, loves, loves a challenge. And this is a huge challenge.”

Continued from B1 But for all of Whitman’s experience and public prominence, some industry watchers say the 55-year-old executive isn’t the right person for the job at this critical time. They point out that Whitman, though respected in technology circles, has no experience running a global hardware company, especially one in the midst of a major transformation.

“She’s not very familiar with this industry,” said Frank Gillett, a technology analyst at Forrester Research. “It’s hard to know whether this decision reflects a clear rational process or not. The board has clearly struggled in picking the right people.”

Whitman replaces ousted Chief Executive Leo Apotheker, who was fired by the board Thursday.

Apotheker’s 10-month tenure ended shortly after he announced a set of restructuring plans widely panned by investors, including a move to divest HP’s personal computer business — the world’s largest — and shut down its smartphone and tablet operations.

In remarks during a conference call with investors Thursday, Board Chairman Raymond Lane said the board was “embarrassed” by how Apotheker presented the changes to investors and customers. “It could’ve been done much better,” he said.

In the months Apotheker was in charge, the Palo Alto-based company’s stock dropped more than 40 percent, and the company cut its earnings projections for three straight quarters. Wall Street investors began to express serious doubts about Apotheker’s performance — a growing sense of uncertainty that the board tried to combat with its sudden appointment of Whitman.

A N A Hail-Mary pass as clock winds down Saab delivers solid luxury crossover while on the cusp of financial ruin

tions, the cargo efficiency is poor for a crossover that’s roughly eight inches longer than an Audi Q5 or Volvo XC60. A Lexus RX is about 2 inches shorter and an inch narrower than the Saab, yet it has about 30 percent more cargo space.

By Lawrence Ulrich

An interesting lineup

New York Times News Service

The phrase “troubled adoptions” brings to mind rescued pit bulls or neglected children from third-world orphanages. Now there’s an automotive analog to trouble prospective parents: the cars of Sweden’s embattled Saab.

Barely 18 months after Saab was rescued by Victor Muller —the car-crazy founder of a tiny Dutch automaker, Spyker Cars — in a last-minute deal with General Motors, the reconstituted Saab Automobile is again walking the ledge of bankruptcy or dissolution.

Its factory in Trollhattan, Sweden, which produces the 9-3 and 9-5 sedans, has been largely shut down since April after unpaid suppliers halted deliveries. The company announced a $322 million loss for the first six months of the year. And two unions have filed bankruptcy petitions, citing unpaid wages for both blue- and white-collar workers.

At a hearing Wednesday a Swedish court granted the company’s appeal for protection from creditors, giving it a chance to reorganize and restart production.

Rather than making cars, Saab’s main activity seems to have been engineering financial lifelines. The company hopes to sell a majority stake to a pair of Chinese auto companies for about $350 million. But regulatory approvals from China and Sweden seem far from certain.

Against all odds Considering all the cliffhanger

New York Times News Service

Despite the company’s ongoing financial struggles, Saab’s 9-4X is a luxury crossover as compelling as the Cadillac SRX on which it is based. suspense, it would be hard to fault a consumer for being leery of buying a new Saab, no matter how terrific they might be.

But the all-new Saab 9-5 sedan is middling, not miraculous, and it found just 1,354 buyers in the United States through August, a reception that can’t have been helped by the corporate turmoil.

Yet against all odds, the Saab 9-4X, the latest product of this broken home, turns out to be a fairly winning luxury crossover.

While the vehicle has its flaws, including excess weight and lackluster fuel economy, it is easily as compelling as the Cadillac SRX on which it is based.

From the curb, a rough resemblance to the SRX (and the more pedestrian Chevrolet Equinox) is obvious. But the Saab is the best looking of the three, with its blacked-out pillars, sloping roofline and elegantly detailed rear end.

Inside, the Saab strives to dye its GM roots to announce its own style. As with the 9-5, the materials and switches are no threat to a Lexus or an Audi. But in the design world, there’s good monochrome and bad monochrome,

and this one is good: Your eye takes in its charcoal-tone surroundings in a clean, unbroken sweep. The cabin is also just right for the jet-inspired Saab, a blast of individualism against the more conformist vibe of, say, an Acura MDX or Lexus RX. The attractive bits include the sporty small-circumference steering wheel, the egg-crate vents and the metal-and-leather shifter. The gauge needles seem inspired by the Green Lantern’s power ring. A cool redundant speed readout recalls a jet altimeter or a bathroom scale, depending on your Mittyesque frame of reference. Press the Saab-signature Night Panel button and the main instruments and infotainment readouts switch off, leaving only the speedometer illuminated.

The GM-based touch-screen navigation system was fine three or four years ago, but it’s beginning to fall behind the curve in ease-of-use and sharp graphics.

The front seats are supportive, but the rear cushions are a bit flat for my taste. And while passengers enjoy spacious accommoda-

One Saab tradition never changes, as I was reminded when I drove the Aero version of the 9-4X: For seemingly 20 years, Saab models have struggled to find their pricing niche.

There’s a base version that’s attractively priced but not quite luxury-class in terms of power or features, and a stuffed trophy model whose price seems, shall we say, optimistic.

The Aero expresses that optimism in a $48,835 base price, or $52,130 after adding a $1,450 panoramic moonroof and a rearpassenger package ($1,845) with twin DVD screens, heated rear seats and three-zone climate control.

More reasonably, the standard 9-4X starts at $34,205, but that’s with front-wheel-drive, GM’s lukewarm 265-horsepower 3-liter V-6 and a short list of features.

The Aero hunts bigger game with the 300-horsepower 2.8-liter turbo V-6, an excellent Haldex all-wheel-drive system, a limited-slip rear differential, chunky 20-inch alloy wheels and all the toys: Navigation and premium audio systems, xenon adaptive headlamps, heated and ventilated front seats, rain-sensing wipers, a six-month OnStar subscription and three months of satellite radio. And don’t forget the cooled glovebox.

In theory, the Aero engine might seem a tattered calling card. In the SRX, the breathless turbo and its lurching 6-speed transmission proved such a poor match that Cadillac killed the combination after just one

year. For 2012, the SRX gets the solid 3.6-liter V-6 from the CTS sedan.

But Saab applied its turbocharging expertise to smooth the 2.8 engine and tweak the throttle response for more seamless operation (though the transmission still delivered clunky shifts).

The Saab may be no quicker than the Cadillac, at a manufacturer-estimated 7.7 seconds from 0 to 60 mph, but it sure feels like it.

With up to 4,650 pounds to drag around, the 9-4X isn’t a mountain goat in the vein of lighter, higher-performance crossovers like the BMW X3.

That weight is reflected in the Aero’s unimpressive rating of 15 mpg, and 22 on the highway. The front-drive nonturbo version is rated 1 8/25 mpg.

Yet on the highway, this Saab comes alive, chewing up miles, passing at will, evincing a highspeed confidence that’s impossible to fake. The Aero’s top speed of 145 mph is one indication of that ability; the basic model tops out at 130.

The steering, pleasingly quick and direct, contributes to that feeling, especially when you dial the Aero’s adaptive suspension to its Sport setting. Saab engineers, if their paychecks clear, could still fine-tune the system: The ride quality of the 9-4X in Sport mode can set teeth to chattering on bad roads. And as in the 9-5, the brakes just feel weird. The pedal is hard as granite, yet stopping power doesn’t increase in a progressive fashion as you add more pressure.

Yet for all its flaws, I enjoyed the 9-4X in a way that’s hard to express in words. That’s what good Saabs have always been like — they were rarely the best performers in a strict sense, but they had an undeniable appeal.

And ultimately, this new Saab’s technical issues pale in comparison with the company’s larger problems.

Senators call for inquiry into China’s technology ‘shakedowns’

By Aaron M. Kessler Detroit Free Press

WASHINGTON — Both of Michigan’s U.S. senators are now calling for a formal investigation of Chinese trade practices related to electric vehicles like the Chevrolet Volt.

Sen. Debbie Stabenow, a Democrat, wrote U.S. Trade Representative Ron Kirk on Wednesday asking for action to determine whether China is attempting “shakedowns” of American companies to turn over their technology secrets.

Last week, Sen. Carl Levin, also a Democrat, sent his own letter to Kirk and acting Secretary of Commerce Rebecca Blank.

“The Chevrolet Volt represents intellectual property developed in the United States and paid for by General Motors research and development dollars,” Levin wrote.

“The U.S. government must not allow China to coerce American companies to give their technology away to foreign competitors in order to have access to their markets.”

Prompting the concern is the Volt’s debut in China next year, and news that Chinese officials are refusing to let the Volt qualify for incentives worth nearly $20,000 per car unless GM shares some of the vehicle’s key technologies.

GM has so far attempted to deflect concern over the subsidy issue, saying it believes it will work through a solution with the Chinese government. GM spokesman Greg Martin said the company had no plans to change its Chinese rollout of the Volt next year, and it did not intend to transfer any of the vehicle’s technology.

Facebook

Hay

Continued from B1 “We think it’s an important next step to help tell the story of your life,” said Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook’s chief executive, who introduced the new features at the company’s annual conference for developers. He called what Facebook was doing an effort to “rethink some industries.”

Facebook’s moves sharpen the battle lines between the social networking giant and Google, the search giant, because Facebook is trying to change the way people find what they want online.

Searching the Web is still the way most people discover content — whether it is news, information about wedding photographers or Swiss chard recipes. Facebook is trying to change that: In effect, friends will direct other friends to content. Google has its own social network product in Google+, but it is far behind Facebook.

“This is two big rivals getting into each others’ backyards,” said Sean Corcoran, an analyst with Forrester Research. “It changes the game for what social networks have been doing. What Facebook is saying is, we are your life online, and also how you discover and share.”

Facebook is not becoming a purveyor of media products, like Apple or Amazon.com. Rather, it is teaming up with companies that distribute music, movies, information and games in positioning itself to become the conduit where news and entertainment is found and consumed. Its new partners include Netflix and Hulu for video, Spotify for music, The Washington Post and Yahoo for news, Ticketmaster for concert tickets and a host of food, travel and consumer brands.

For companies that distribute news and entertainment, a partnership with Facebook can draw eyeballs and subscribers, though it still remains unclear exactly how much more revenue a Facebook friend recommendation can generate.

Music industry analysts said the new Facebook offerings stand to improve the prospects of new media companies like the music service Spotify, which already has 2 million users worldwide.

But they also pose a challenge to the biggest music seller of all: iTunes from Apple, which has added social features that have gained little traction.

Continued from B1 “Fertilizer has gone up 30 percent since last year,” Mohnen said.

Central Oregon hay production was also dampened this year by the long winter and cold weather that extended through much of the spring and early summer months, Bohle said.

“This was one of the coldest years we’ve had in a long, long time, especially the cold spring,” Bohle said. “A look at the records shows this was by far the coldest spring we’ve had in five years.”

As a result, Bohle said area farmers reported one of the smallest first cuttings of alfalfa hay in years.

“It’s hard to make that up

with second and third cuttings,” Bohle said, adding that typically the hay growing season is long enough to get three cuttings during the summer in Central Oregon.

Statewide hay production value reached $582 million in 2008, then dropped to $464 million in 2009 and $473 million in 2010, said Shaun Flerchinger, a statistician with the National Agricultural Statistics Service Oregon office in Portland.

With flooding in the Midwest and drought in the southwest cutting into production of hay and feed grain crops, Bohle said more severe shortages and higher prices are likely to continue into 2012.

And everywhere on the site, users will be able to more precisely signal what they are reading, watching, hearing or eating. This will let Facebook reap even more valuable data than it does now about its users’ habits and desires, which in turn can be used to sell more fine-tuned advertising.

How users will react to the new features remains to be seen.

The site’s evolution could make it easier for them to decide how to spend their time and money.

But it could also potentially allow them to shut out alternative viewpoints and information that is not being shared among their set of friends.

And not everyone wants to rely on their friends to shape their cultural discoveries. “Some of my friends have pretty awful taste in music,” said Alexander White, whose Colorado-based Next Big Sound tracks social media responses for artists and record labels. “It’s one filter. Its not the be-all, end-all.”

As of May, Americans spent more time with Facebook than with the next four largest Web brands combined, according to Nielsen.

“As Facebook becomes more and more synonymous with the Internet experience, that is going to benefit Facebook shareholders,” said Erik Brynjolfsson, a professor of management at the MIT Sloan School of Management.

“Facebook has been very successful in getting the lion’s share of people’s time and attention. Their challenge in the coming years is to convert that dominance in time

and attention into a bigger share of consumer wallets — a bigger share of money they spend either directly on Facebook or indirectly through advertising.”

Other Internet giants have enviable assets of their own. Google has a mountain of data based on how people search. Amazon knows plenty about what you might want to buy, based on what you’ve bought. But no other technology company has Facebook’s treasure trove of social data. It has 800 million users, half of whom return to the site every day, and it also has the information they reveal about themselves, sometimes unwittingly. With it, Facebook has the ability to leverage peer pressure at a grand scale.

keting tool, setting up pages for characters and movies. They have also been experimenting with offering full movies on the site. Warner Brothers, Miramax and Lions Gate Entertainment have all allowed Facebook users to watch movies they have paid for with Facebook’s virtual currency, called Credits.

Now the studios are hoping the Facebook platform will let them connect even more directly with customers — to grab a Facebook user’s attention by telling her that her friend has watched a particular television show.

Netflix wants to allow subscribers to watch its video on Facebook. But its plans face a stumbling block in Washington.

A law called the Video Privacy Protection Act prohibits the release of information about what movies a person is renting. That law would have to be lifted in the United States.

The changes raise a fundamental challenge for Facebook: Can it be all things to everyone? Some of its users want to share with a small group of friends, while others want to be completely open.

And there are users who complain about the trivia that sometimes seems to flood the site.

“Facebook wants to be omnipresent in the Web experience by adding commerce, video and mail to their early successes with news feeds and picture tagging,” said Jodee Rich, founder of People Browsr, based in San Francisco, which analyzes data from social networks. “Trying to be all things to all people was the undoing of Microsoft and AOL. If Facebook continues to overreach, they will stumble.”

Curating taste Facebook executives describe their efforts as upending the traditional model of marketing.

Rather than just helping people buy what they need, they aim to curate what they might want.

Its partnership with Zynga, maker of the popular game FarmVille, illustrates how Facebook can leverage its platform. The alliance has been enormously lucrative for both companies. Whether that model can be replicated with movies, music, or even news remains to be seen.

Still, Facebook has become unavoidable for the entertainment business. Hollywood increasingly realizes the power of peer recommendations to sell movies and television shows; some in the industry call this the “killer gateway.”

Studios have long looked at Facebook as an important mar-

Markets Continued from B1 The MSCI All-Country World Index, a grouping of 45 countries, however, fell more than 20 percent, pushing it into bear territory.

Financial markets beyond stocks also reflected growing anxiety. Commodities like oil fell, and even gold dropped sharply in price. As investors continued to seek havens, U.S. bond prices soared for a fifth consecutive trading session, pushing the 10-year benchmark yield to a new low of 1.72 percent.

The cost of insuring the government bonds of Western European nations against default rose to a record high. The extra yield investors demand to hold Italian government debt also rose, pointing to lingering worries about debt levels in the euro currency region. Despite steps taken last week by central banks to help banks in Europe borrow dollars, there were signs of rising borrowing costs for these institutions.

It is not only economies in the United States and Europe that are faltering. Financial markets in developing countries are showing levels of stress last seen during the financial crisis, a senior World Bank official said Thursday.

The official said that problems in the developed world increasingly were shaking the economies of developing nations, not because of a drop in trade flows or capital investment, but because a sense of gloom was spreading around the world, shaking the confi-

dence of domestic investors.

“We are increasingly worried about the possibility of global contagion,” said the official, who shared the World Bank’s assessment of the global situation on condition of anonymity.

“At some point the global mood changes. Just like the realization that even big banks are vulnerable” shook world markets in 2008, the official said, “the idea that even the U.S. is vulnerable means that many investors have lost an anchor.”

The market downturn was set in motion Wednesday after the Fed announced that a complete economic recovery was still years away, adding that the U.S. economy has “significant downside risks to the economic outlook, including strains in global financial markets.”

The Fed also announced it would buy long-term Treasury bonds and sell short-term bonds to help stimulate lending and growth.

Some analysts were disappointed the Fed did not act more forcefully and they had little faith that policy tools like lower interest rates were encouraging consumers and businesses to spend more or to start creating jobs.

“The initial and follow-up reaction from the equity market is likely the realization that the Fed has little left to offer, that Washington is a mess, and their only hope is to ‘ride it out’ over a long period of time,” said Kevin Giddis, the executive managing director and president for fixed-income capital markets at Morgan Keegan & Co.

B6 Friday, September 23, 2011 • THE BULLETIN

M D I SPATC H E S Deschutes Brewery has been selected by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency as a member of its Green Power Partnership program. This program recognizes organizations for their commitment to green power and environmental leadership in the procurement of renewable energy and whose green power use meets or exceeds the EPA’s green power use requirements. A few examples

of Deschutes Brewery’s sustainable practices: using recycled glass for bottles, reduction in the use of electricity, natural gas and water, recycling of all allowable materials and participating in compost programs, as well as the the brewery’s Portland location’s use of Portland General Electric’s 100 percent renewable energy and use of salvaged timber beams in its construction.

Both the Bend and Portland lo-

cations purchase locally farmed beef raised on Deschutes’ spent grain. Energy expenditures in Bend are paid through the Blue Sky program, a renewable energy program through Pacific Power. For more information about the Deschutes Brewery and the EPA’s Green Power Partnership program, visit www.DeschutesBrewery.com and www.epa.gov/greenpower/ index.htm.

Nike profit up 15 percent

By Sarah Skidmore The Associated Press

PORTLAND — Nike Inc. reported its fiscal first-quarter profit rose 15 percent as demand grew for its sneakers and athletic apparel in nearly every market worldwide despite an uncertain global economy.

The results, which were reported after the close of the stock market on Thursday, beat Wall Street’s expectations and sent its shares up in after-hours trading.

Under the weight of political uncertainty, turbulent stock markets and renewed fears that the U.S. and the global economy are headed for recession, people are more closely watching every dollar they spend. Despite the economic pressures, consumers have shown a willingness to spend on some of their favorite brands like their Nike sneaks, Starbucks coffee and McDonald’s hamburgers.

“We all know that the economic uncertainty that we’re seeing in the world today is putting pressure on consumers around the world,” said Mark Parker, Nike’s CEO. “Yet, in most countries, we continue to see solid growth in footwear and apparel

Nike, the world’s largest athletic shoe and apparel maker, said that’s why sales improved in nearly all markets, including strong gains in the U.S. and emerging markets like India and China.

LOS ANGELES — An Arizona college student was arrested and charged Thursday in a breach of computers at Sony Pictures Entertainment early this summer in which more than 37,000 customers had their information stolen.

An indictment unsealed in Los Angeles charged Cody Kretsinger, 23, of Tempe, Ariz., with one count each of conspiracy and unauthorized impairment of a protected computer. If convicted of both counts, he faces up to 15 years in prison.

Kretsinger appeared Thursday afternoon in a Phoenix federal courtroom, where a judge restricted his travels to Arizona, California and Illinois, where he has family, before releasing him on his own recognizance.

Petition aims to stop pot policing in Bend Measure would keep resources from being used on enforcement

By Nick Grube The Bulletin

Godsiff grabs a sheep to be sheared while working on a group of animals.

Marijuana enforcement might become a little more difficult for the Bend Police Department if a resident gets his way and changes the city’s charter.

Ronald “Rondo� Boozell wants to put a measure on the ballot to prevent the city from using resources to combat the possession or transportation of marijuana. Boozell’s petition to put the charter amendment to voters was approved by the city Thursday. He needs to collect signatures from 6,496 registered city voters (15 percent of the population) and has two years to do so, according to City Recorder Patty Stell.

If the measure makes it to a ballot and is approved by voters, it would prevent the city and its police force from stopping the possession or transportation of any amount of marijuana.

IN BRIEF Wildfire near Culver grows to 300 acres A fire discovered Thursday afternoon about five miles southwest of Culver had grown to 300 acres by nightfall, according to the Central Oregon Interagency Dispatch Center.

The Alder Springs Fire, near Steelhead Falls to the west of the Deschutes River, is burning in a mix of brush and juniper in the Crooked River National Grassland.

Fire spokesman Bill Queen said five ranches west of the fire are potentially threatened.

No evacuations had been ordered as of Thursday night, but Forest Road 6360 to Alder Springs and the Alder Springs trailhead has been closed.

Three tankers and two helicopters dropped retardant and water on the fire Thursday afternoon, while engine and hand crews fought the fire from the ground.

Queen said additional resources are expected to arrive in the area to help fight the fire this morning.

The cause of the fire is currently under investigation. — Bulletin staff report

2 armed men hold up Bend pizza restaurant Bulletin staff report Two men armed with a handgun robbed the Papa Johnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pizza restaurant at 755 N.E. Greenwood Ave. in Bend Thursday night, escaping with an undisclosed amount of cash.

Sgt. Todd Fletcher of the Bend Police Department said the men entered the restaurant just before 8 p.m. and demanded money. One of the men had a gun in his waistband, Fletcher said, though employees were not threatened.

The two men left on foot, and police do not know if they got

into a vehicle after leaving the restaurant.

Officers arrived on the scene shortly after the incident and set up a perimeter, using police dogs to try to locate the suspects.

Police are reviewing surveillance video in an attempt to identify the men, Fletcher said.

He said the men took some measures to conceal their faces, but could not provide specifics.

Fletcher said police are likely to publicly release still images from the video today.

Shearing Continued from C1 While shearing in New Zealand is a competitive business â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Kiwis dominate international shearing competitions and hold most world records for speed â&#x20AC;&#x201D; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a job a lot of people are eager to do, Godsiff said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really hard work, and a lot of young people in New Zealand, much like over here, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like sweating that much and being dirty and being in pain, but I always liked the challenge of it,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It suits a certain kind of person.â&#x20AC;?

Godsiff, 53, moved to Central Oregon with his wife Kathryn about 12 years ago to manage a cattle ranch.

Here, he learned how to shear llamas and alpacas, a sideline thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s as much about styling as harvesting the fleece.

He said heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s found llama and alpaca owners often have inventive ideas about what makes a good-looking animal, particularly if theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re involved in the competitive Llama Alpaca Show Association.

Shearing a show animal to the ownerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s satisfaction takes some time, Godsiff said, and heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s learned to keep quiet when

Arrest Continued from C1 Dahl was arraigned Thursday afternoon in Deschutes County Circuit Court on a list of charges including first-degree robbery, first-degree burglary and unlawful use of a weapon.

Dahl is being held at the Deschutes County Jail on $250,000 bail.

Early Monday, sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s deputies responded to a report of a break-in at the Summit Xpress convenience store on Spring River Road. Deputies determined someone had used an ATV to knock down the doors and attempt to remove an ATM. Unable to move the machine, the suspect stole several cartons of cigarettes.

Tuesday morning, deputies were called to a home on Chief Paulina Drive, about three miles south of the convenience store.

The homeowner reported that a man wearing a ski mask had entered her home and threatened her with a handgun. The man fired a shot through the womanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ceiling and left with an undetermined amount of cash, her laptop computer and her car. The car was

Investigators learned Dahl would be traveling north on Highway 97 on Wednesday afternoon and arranged for deputies to intercept the vehicle he was riding in. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He was en route with another family member to do something totally unrelated, and through our investigation we learned where that was going to occur up in that area,â&#x20AC;?

State court records indicate Dahl has been convicted of firstdegree burglary twice before, in 2005 and in 2009. Prior to his arrest Wednesday, he had appeared in Deschutes County Circuit Court twice this month to enter guilty pleas to charges of burglary, theft and DUII.

O Personnel Proposal calls for fewer roads, more trails costs will run over budget, state says SODA MOUNTAIN WILDERNESS

The Associated Press

From staff and wire reports SALEM — Oregon budget officials say recently ratified contracts with major state-worker unions will cost millions more than lawmakers budgeted.

The estimated $42 million spending shortfall is the latest hit to a budget already reeling from lower revenue projections.

The state Legislature crafted a budget this year that included funding for a 6 percent increase in personnel costs. But under the final agreement reached with the unions, employee compensation costs rise by an estimated 7.4 percent.

Officials attribute the difference to the cost of raises negotiated in previous years.

Union officials say employees’ take-home pay was virtually flat because workers are taking unpaid days off work and covering part of their health care costs.

A spokesman for Gov. John Kitzhaber says state agencies will absorb the additional costs of paying their workers.

“This is something (Republicans) have been talking about, not only in the 2011 session but in previous sessions as well,” said Nick Smith, spokesman for House Republicans.

The increase in costs is going to take money directly away from services, he said.

This session lawmakers debated several times over the need to curb the state’s contributions to the Oregon Public Employees Retirement System. The spike in PERS, some argued, was a factor in the need to slash teaching jobs and led to larger class sizes.

Some Democrats argued, however, that any changes to PERS would be violating state contracts and leave the state susceptible to lawsuits.

“We’re saying, what do we have to do to have a serious conversation about bringing these costs under control?” Smith said.

“And with PERS primarily.”

Lawmaker did set aside a $460 million reserve in anticipation that the budget shortfall would increase before the 2012 legislative session. But with the most recent economic forecast, showing revenues about $200 million less than what expected, House Republicans said it’s even more urgent to reform the state’s personnel costs.

Former bank manager gets 6 years for stealing funds The Associated Press EUGENE — A former Coos Bay bank employee has been sentenced to nearly six years in prison for stealing more than $600,000 from customers, most of them ill, disabled or elderly.

A lawyer for Shawna Leimomi Saia, 38, said she was driven in part by a gambling addiction, the Eugene Register-Guard reported.

Saia also must make restitution and explain her gambling addiction to Oregon’s government leaders. U.S. District Judge Ann Aiken said she requires such letters to remind state leaders that “if we’re going to have the availability of gambling, there needs to be a reciprocal fund that takes care of people who are addicted to gambling.”

The restitution of $626,553 goes to Wells Fargo Bank, which paid that sum to the victims.

Court records show Saia used the identities of victims to create ATM cards, which she used to steal from their accounts. She also befriended and socialized with her scammed customers.

Jenny Creek flows through the old Box-O Ranch in the Soda Mountain Wilderness area. A proposed management plan for the area has been released by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management.

O B Unclaimed iPod leads to child porn charge ROSEBURG — Photos on a lost iPod that was traced back to its owner have led to a child pornography charge in Douglas County against an Oakland-area man.

The Register Guard reported the device was left at a Sutherlin gas station last October.

It sat unclaimed for months before an attendant asked his boss if he could take it home.

When it was being powered up, the attendant’s wife saw pornography and called police.

Sgt. Joseph Felix says an Oregon State Police crime lab traced the device to 33-yearold Jason Daniel Goodman.

He was arrested Tuesday and charged with downloading child pornography.

Metro may buy site near Willamette Falls OREGON CITY — The regional government Metro is considering a bid for the 23 acres next to the Willamette Falls that now holds the closed Blue Heron Paper mill.

Metro officials say they could tap a fund for buying natural areas, partnering with local governments and perhaps the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde.

The plan would open the Willamette River and the falls to the public and encourage some commercial development, although officials say it could take years to accomplish that.

It would be the first time Metro has used the fund to buy developed property. But officials tell The Oregonian the historic site next to the roaring falls presents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

The mill went into bankruptcy proceedings this year, and the assets and real estate are being sold.

Portland City Council backs ‘living building’ PORTLAND — A divided Portland City Council has voted to push ahead with a proposal for a $62 million downtown office building designed as a showcase for green design and technology.

The idea behind the Oregon Sustainability Center is to create what’s called a “living building” near Portland State University, but the Oregonian reported it faces financial questions such as the risk to the city treasury if rent agreements with nonprofits and businesses don’t come through as planned.

House Republicans earlier this year balked at approving $37 million in state bonds.

The 3-2 City Council vote Wednesday allows the city to spend $1.7 million on planning, in addition to $450,000 already authorized.

— From wire reports

MEDFORD — A proposed management plan for the new Soda Mountain Wilderness area in Southern Oregon calls for removing some roads, converting others to trails, removing some structures and preserving historic ranch features.

The Medford Mail Tribune reported the U.S. Bureau of Land Management has spent 18 months working on the plan for about 24,000 acres amid the Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument.

Congress designated it as wilderness in 2009. The monument was established in 2000 to protect what scientists describe as unusually rich biological diversity.

“This would restore wilderness character where easily achievable and provide visitor enjoyment and moderate use of trailheads,” said Howard Hunter, the monument’s assistant manager. “A few selected roads would

be converted to trails. We think that’s a reasonable approach.”

The alternatives to the proposed plan would leave the area in its current condition, or do much less restoration and retain the most evidence of human impact, or remove all structures, he said.

Much of the Box-O Ranch in the Jenny Creek Valley would be preserved. The government obtained the 1,200-acre ranch in a 1995 land exchange. Bureau archaeologists said indigenous people have lived in the area for 10,000 years.

The area remains open to recreation such as backpacking, horseback riding, hunting, fishing and camping. Cattle grazing is not permitted.

Two residents would be allowed to continue driving a short distance to get to their private property.

The proposal, formally released Thursday, is aimed at producing a final plan next year.

State regulators want increased scrutiny, public opinion on health insurance rates

By Jonathan J. Cooper The Associated Press

SALEM — Oregon officials want to give the public more of an opportunity to comment on proposals to hike health insurance rates.

The Oregon Insurance Division, the state’s insurance regulator, is asking state lawmakers for authority to spend a $4 million federal grant that would pay for better scrutiny of proposed rate hikes and public hearings that would allow consumers to weigh in.

Officials explained the idea to a panel of legislators on Thursday.

The Insurance Division is responsible for reviewing proposals to set health insurance rates on plans offered to individual consumers and small businesses, which represent about 12 percent of the market, said spokeswoman Cheryl Martinis.

“People want to know what we’re doing, how closely we’re looking at rate requests,” Martinis told The Associated Press. “We’re trying to make sure everything is open so they can see we’re grilling insurance companies regularly and we’re doing it in depth.”

For the first time in decades, the agency held public hear-

ings this year to scrutinize rate hike requests by two insurers, Regence BlueCross BlueShield of Oregon and ODS Health Plan.

Regulators cut Regence’s rate hike from a requested 22.1 percent to 12.8 percent. The ODS proposal is still pending.

The federal grant would pay for the state to equip a meeting room for broadcasting rate-hike hearings online, to pay a consumer advocacy group to review mathematical analyses and to hire more staff to evaluate and explain proposed rate hikes. The state has already secured the grant, but the Legislature’s budget committee still has to vote to approve taking the money.

The public has long had an opportunity to comment on

rate hike requests. But officials hope the extra money will allow them to improve their analyses and make it much easier for affected consumers to share their thoughts. They also say public hearings would provide a forum for the insurance companies to explain their proposal.

Scott Burton, a Regence spokesman, said the Insurance Division already has a very transparent process for approving rate increases.

Taxpayers need to know more about principal

I

t’s good to know, as reported this week, that Redmond High School students were not at risk from the troubles of their principal last year. But it’s not enough.

The Redmond School District announced in late August that Brian Lemos was on leave from his post as the high school’s principal, and the district was preparing to search for his replacement.

There was no word on why, whether he was being paid, or anything else.

Administrators and board members have maintained that silence until this week’s announcement by school board Chairman Jim Erickson that students were never unsafe as a result of whatever happened with Lemos.

Lemos has had criminal and license issues in years past. His teaching license was suspended for 60 days in September 2000 when he was working for the Tillamook School District, and he was placed on four years’ probation. Earlier he had legal issues involving intoxicants, assault and domestic harassment, and he was sentenced to two separate but suspended jail sentences.

He was later hired by the Crook County School District, where he was a principal before he joined the Redmond district in 2009. His stint as Redmond High’s principal began in 2010.

Until his removal from that posi-

tion in August, there were no public reports of trouble.

And there still are none.

We can only speculate about what action might have prompted his removal.

With Erickson’s comment, the district had told us what Lemos didn’t do, but we still don’t know what he did do.

And we don’t even know if he’s still being paid.

Erickson cited “a legal process” in declining to elaborate, saying the district was respecting Lemos’ rights as an employee.

We’re all in favor of respecting Lemos’ rights, but taxpayers have some rights, too. We’re entitled to know how our public servants are managing our business and spending our money.

Sooner, rather than later, we need to know the full story.

Otherwise, we have no way to evaluate our public officials.

Otherwise, we can’t know if we should advocate for change in policy or procedure.

Otherwise, we can’t know how to vote in the next elections for board members or for bond issues.

Public records law needs improvement O

regon attorney General John Kroger’s bid to update the state’s Open Records law fell flat last year, making it out of a single Senate committee and going no further.

Kroger hasn’t given up on the idea, though he says he’s likely to change tactics the next time around. He recently told the Salem StatesmanJournal’s editorial board that he plans to have another go at it in 2013.

The update is sorely needed. As Sen. Brian Boquist, R-Dallas, told the Senate Interim Committee on General Government, Consumer and Small Business Protection on Wednesday, “Our laws, frankly, are terrible.” Boquist told the committee he hears from his constituents who have been stymied in their efforts to gain access to records they believe they’re entitled to see.

Part of the problem, as we see it, stems from what has happened to the law since it was first enacted in 1973.

Back then, exceptions were few and fully spelled out in the open records statute itself. In the intervening years, a number of exceptions have been

written — too many, in our opinion — and they’re scattered throughout the Oregon Revised Statutes. It’s a confusing situation at best.

Kroger hoped to pull all the exceptions into a single location within the Open Records law itself. He also hoped to remove about 100 of those exceptions.

Kroger’s bill last year wasn’t perfect, however, and even cut into pieces it will not be.

Though he was right to seek deadlines for responding to records requests, they must be created in a way that does not give agencies until the very last moment to respond.

He must find a way to accomplish that if deadlines are to be anything but excuses to delay response even more than is the occasional practice today.

Kroger should take advantage of the nearly two-year wait he proposes to improve on what he introduced this year. Experts on open government and public records aren’t difficult to find.

My Nickel’s Worth Buy ‘Made in America’ Jobs, jobs, jobs. Yes, they are very important personally, nationally and globally. Yes, government can create jobs, but they are usually not sustainable. The administration was criticized for trying to do what FDR did to get us out of the Great Depression because it cost money to create jobs.

Jobs are the result of people providing goods or services to people who want them. If we want jobs here, we need to spend our money here. Buy local crafts, buy “Made in America.”

Walk into your favorite store and ask them to show you products “Made in America.”

Christmas is coming. I’m already getting a mailbox full of catalogs. They are full of items — imported. So is Walmart, a leader in outsourcing the production of goods overseas. Maybe you have to change what you buy because right now it isn’t made in America, but it is vitally important that you make changes in your purchasing and gift giving. If enough of us do it, jobs will come back, manufacturing will come back; people will have jobs and resources to purchase American goods.

Shout it out, let your family know what you are doing. E-mail it, tweet it, Facebook it. Do whatever you can to make this a national movement! We need to save ourselves by ourselves.

We the people of these United States are the only ones who can. Thank you.

Only 800 benefit Ah, the benefits of owning a hybrid or an electric vehicle in the state of Oregon.

1) You can receive a tax credit of up to $7,500.

2) You are going to get new filling stations in Portland and along I-5.

3) Not only are you getting free filling stations, but also free fill-ups.

What a deal for about 800 vehicles in the state of Oregon. All of these benefits are paid for by all Oregon taxpayers. By the way, grants are paid by taxpayers.

One of the “consequences” of the 800 and other vehicles with increased mileage is a lack of a gas tax. Those of us

who drive a gas or diesel powered vehicle will continue to pay a gas tax at the pump.

Have no fear, our state legislators are here to make things right.

How are they going to do that? A global positioning system installed in all licensed vehicles in the state. Then we get another tax (mileage). What a deal.

To our state legislators, how about installing the global positioning systems in the 800 who are getting the breaks already?

This becomes a user fee paid for by the 800, which makes a lot more sense than taxing all for the benefit of the few.

Vote them out The latest CBS poll from Sept. 16 says Congress has an approval rating of 12 percent.

Would you let your automobile have work done on it if the mechanic had a 12 percent approval rating? If you were considering surgery, would you choose a doctor who had a 12 percent approval rating? How about a hair stylist or a dog groomer with a 12 percent approval rating?

If we wouldn’t let our dog be groomed by someone with a 12 percent approval rating, can you tell me why the American people continue to send the same people back to Washington and expect their job performance to improve?

I think the time has come to vote the bums out! Every single one of them. No exceptions.

‘Internet Sabbath’ can give families a refreshing break

By Janet Stevens The Bulletin

M

y home computer gave up the ghost a couple of weeks ago, refusing to boot up early one Saturday morning.

It’s had its problems over the years, so while its death seemed premature to me, it really wasn’t much of a surprise.

Coming as it did at the beginning of a weekend, however, it did leave me with the prospect of a weekend minus e-mail, the World Wide Web, even the solitaire game that has become my go-to time killer.

It also reminded me of a book I picked up early last year, “Hamlet’s BlackBerry,” by William Powers, a prize-winning media critic and author. Powers makes the case for cutting — or at least loosening — the ties that bind us to smartphones, computers, tablets and all the electronic wonders whose use has become as routine as brushing one’s teeth.

His is a straightforward argument.

While modern technology offers us advantages that are impossible to ignore, it does so at a price. Each new gizmo, like each communications advance in history, has come at the expense of our ability to focus, to reflect, to do our best work and to build the kind of human relationships we all need to thrive. We need time to be alone, in other words, and in today’s world, space for solitude can be hard to find.

Consider: When was the last time you went to the market and failed to see someone talking on a cellphone? Or to a meeting that was free of folks checking e-mail or Googling some bit of information or texting their kids or … well, you get the idea.

On a simpler level, as I sit at the computer writing this, I have four or five windows open on the screen; I jump back and forth among them, checking facts, glancing at this morning’s paper online, and, yes, playing a bit of solitaire when thoughts don’t flow smoothly. To

JANET STEVENS make matters worse, the television is on in the background.

Each one of these activities breaks my concentration and makes it just a bit harder to get back to the task at hand.

They’re counter-productive, in other words, and rather than making us work better, each shift destroys focus, even if only for a moment.

There are other problems, as well. The more we believe we must be connected to absolutely everyone every moment of the day, the less we’re truly connected to anyone.

A family evening at home just a few years ago might have found mom, dad and the kids together watching a tele-

vision program, even talking together during commercials. Today’s family evening is far different. There may be two or three televisions going in separate rooms, the youngest child may be playing on the computer and the oldest busy texting friends. There’s no conversation because each person is isolated from every other.

The Powers family found one way to balance the real benefits all this connectedness brings with the problems it causes. They created what they call the Internet Sabbath, turning off the computers Friday night and not firing them up again until Monday morning. Sabbath, by the way, despite its religious overtones, simply means “rest.” Though it took getting used to, the result has been positive, Powers writes. He and his wife have discovered the Sabbath gives them valuable time to be both connected to one another and by themselves from time to time.

I suspect that most of us know intui-

tively what Powers writes about. When we’re expected to be available 24/7 we give up having time to ourselves, and we need that. Time to look inward helps us sort out what is important and what is not. It helps keep us healthy and makes those personal relationships really count.

It doesn’t take any real emotional energy to have 6,000 Facebook friends, in other words, though it does require effort to keep one close friendship going over the years.

Humans need recharge time if they are to be truly human, and in this world that time must be nurtured and protected. Internet Sabbath is one way of doing that, meditation another, turning off the cell phone a third. Discovering that we can live unassisted with ourselves and our families is good for us and well worth the effort.

Kurt Sanderling, 98, led music under Soviet rule

By Mary Rourke Los Angeles Times

Kurt Sanderling, who led the Leningrad Philharmonic and the East Berlin Symphony Orchestra under Soviet rule and won admirers in the West later in his career as a guest conductor for orchestras in London, Los Angeles and elsewhere, has died.

Sanderling, who would have turned 99 Monday, died Saturday in Berlin of causes related to old age, said his son, Stefan.

Sanderling won critical respect for his intellectual grasp of music and his skill at conveying emotion, particularly as a conductor of the Romantic composers Johannes Brahms, Ludwig von Beethoven and Robert Schumann.

He was a sensitive interpreter of the symphonies of Dmitri Shostakovich, a friend whose music echoed life in the Soviet Union under Josef Stalin.

“Mr. Sanderling was hyper-intelligent but at the same time he brought the most humane quality to his conducting,” pianist Mitsuko Uchida said in a 2005 interview with the Los Angeles Times. “With his strength of character and his great humanity, he contributed what players would not otherwise know.”

A large, somber man with wavy hair who bore a strong resemblance to former U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, Sanderling might have had a very different kind of career had it not unfolded primarily behind the Iron Curtain.

“Kurt Sanderling was a great conductor but too few people knew that because he spent so much time in East Germany and Russia,” Ernest Fleischmann, chief executive of the Los Angeles Philharmonic when Sanderling first performed with the orchestra in 1984, once observed.

“He played all the basic repertoire ... as though it had been composed yesterday,” Fleischmann, who died last year, told the St. Petersburg Times in a 2003 interview. “Very few conductors are able to do that.”

Sanderling was born in Arys, East Prussia (now Orzysz, Poland), on Sept. 19, 1912.

He studied piano in Berlin and joined the Berlin State Orchestra as a coach and rehearsal director in 1931. The city was a showplace for the conductors

Ellen Jaskol / Los Angeles Times

Conductor Kurt Sanderling, seen here with the L.A. Philharmonic in 1989, led orchestras under Soviet rule and won admirers later in his career as a guest conductor abroad. Sanderling died Saturday at 98. he most admired, such as Bruno Walter, Erich Kleiber and Otto Klemperer. He learned by watching them, he later said in interviews.

When the Nazis rose to power in Germany in 1933, Sanderling was dismissed from his position because he was Jewish. Two years later he fled the country.

While contemporaries in the music world, including Georg Solti in Hungary and Erich Leinsdorf in Austria, went west to escape Hitler, Sanderling went east. When relatives in Moscow invited him for a holiday, he accepted and did not return to Berlin.

“Those were desperate times for everyone,” Sanderling told the Times in 1990. “Despite the lack of freedom in the Soviet Union, I felt that the Russians saved me.”

His career thrived, first as chief conductor of the Moscow Radio Symphony in 1937 and later as deputy conductor of the Leningrad Philharmonic, where he worked with the orchestra’s revered chief conductor, Evgeny Mravinsky. Sanderling attributed his success in the East to his habit of staying away from politics. “Others made history; I made music,” he said.

In 1941, the year he joined the Leningrad Philharmonic, Germany invaded Russia. Soviet Premier Stalin sent the orchestra to Siberia, saying it was to

protect one of the Soviet Union’s cultural jewels.

Through the three-year siege of Leningrad (now St. Petersburg), Sanderling and his colleagues lived and worked in Novosibirsk, Siberia. They gave regular concerts, some of them quite daring.

In 1941 the orchestra premiered the Seventh Symphony of Shostakovich. The composer was often out of favor with the government for what his critics called “coarse, vulgar” music, Sanderling later recalled. His Seventh Symphony was originally presented as a work about Russia’s defiance in the face of the German invasion. More recently it has been interpreted as a brash complaint against all totalitarianism.

“After the first movement, everyone asked himself, ‘Will we be arrested just for listening to this music?’” Sanderling said of the premiere performance in a 1994 interview with The Times of London.

The concert continued uninterrupted.

The orchestra was allowed to return to Leningrad in 1944.

Sanderling’s career took a turn for the better after Stalin died in 1953. The new Soviet party chief, Nikita Khrushchev, allowed the orchestra to perform in Vienna, Austria, in 1956.

Sanderling and Mravinsky conducted parts of the program.

A. Richard Turner, expert who revealed Leonardo

By William Grimes New York Times News Service

A. Richard Turner, an expert on the Florentine Renaissance whose landmark 1993 study, “Inventing Leonardo,” traced the protean outlines of Leonardo da Vinci through his interpreters and their preoccupations over the last 500 years, died Sept. 9 in Cape May Court House, N.J. He was 79.

The cause was lymphoma, his son Louis said.

“Inventing Leonardo” offered a novel reading of one of the most studied and poorly understood artists in history, in a book that Kenneth Baker, The San Francisco Chronicle’s art critic, called “not a biography but a mythography.”

The well-known reticence of Leonardo, whose notebooks were not published until the late 19th century, and the scarcity of his work have made him elusive prey for the art historian. Turner, spying an opportunity in this information vacuum, focused on the multiple Leonardos created by biographers, critics and artists from Vasari to Freud and beyond, each reshaping the artist and man according to his own cultural values and notions of creativity.

“There is a 1550 Leonardo, an 1800 one, an 1850 one, and so on,” Turner wrote in his introduction. “Each is a different character based on the needs of the given time that produced him, and each has ties to the Leonardo that went before.”

Almon Richard Turner, known as Dick, was born July 28, 1932, in New Bedford, Mass. His father, Louis A. Turner, was a well-

“There is a 1550 Leonardo, an 1800 one, an 1850 one, and so on. Each is a different character based on the needs of the given time that produced him, and each has ties to the Leonardo that went before.”

— A. Richard Turner in “Inventing Leonardo” known physicist who helped develop radar during World War II. He attended Princeton, where, after earning bachelor’s and master’s degrees in art history, he was awarded a doctorate in 1959. His first book, “The Vision of Landscape in Renaissance Italy,” was published by Princeton University Press in 1966.

After teaching at the University of Michigan, Princeton and Middlebury College, he was appointed president of Grinnell College in Iowa in 1975.

In 1979 he became the director of the Institute of Fine Arts at New York University. He later served as dean of the faculty of arts and science and as director of the New York Institute for the Humanities. He retired from the university in 2000.

Turner wrote extensively on Renaissance Italy, especially Florence, in a clear, easy style that made him attractive to publishers of books for a general

audience. The British publisher Weidenfeld & Nicolson engaged him to write a volume on the Florentine Renaissance for its Everyman Art Library, published in the U.S. in 1997 under the title “Renaissance Florence: The Invention of a New Art.” With Glenn Andres and John M. Hunisak, Turner wrote “The Art of Florence,” a lavish twovolume edition that Abbeville Press published in 1988 at the then-unheard-of price of $385.

The work was originally conceived by the eminent art historian H.W. Janson after the flooding of the Arno in 1966 exposed the vulnerability of Florence’s artistic heritage.

After Janson died in 1982, it became the pet project of Robert Abrams, the president of Abbeville, who hired Takashi Okamura to photograph the city’s streets, churches, sculptures, paintings and frescoes to create a comprehensive portrait of Florence and its art.

Its opulence and packaging as a boxed set, and the sheer weight of the product — the critic John Russell called it “as

heavy as a chained Bible” — put “The Art of Florence” in the deluxe coffee-table category, but critics praised the text as a model of concision and art-historical writing.

“This is emphatically not a book intended to be seen only,” the historian Albert Hoxie wrote in The Los Angeles Times, noting its “major text of impeccable and up-to-the-minute scholarship.”

In “La Pietra: Florence, a Family and a Villa,” published in 2002, Turner presented a history of the Florentine villa that Sir Harold Acton bequeathed, with its gardens, olive groves and extensive private art collection, to New York University on his death in 1994.

A keen photographer and birder, Turner would often leap up, grab his camera and run out the front door of his house in Cape May when he got word of a rare sighting. He spent much of his time at the Cape May Bird Observatory, where he was a volunteer. He was also a director of the New Jersey Audubon Society and the Pinelands Preservation Alliance.

THE BULLETIN • FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 2011

L O C A L LY Northwest Pro Rodeo finals set for Prineville The climax of the 2011 Northwest Professional Rodeo Association season takes place this weekend in Prineville, where the NPRA Finals Rodeo gets under way today at the Crook County Fairgrounds.

Dozens of cowboys and cowgirls from across the Northwest are expected to compete in the rodeo, which features 7 p.m. performances this evening and Saturday.

Admission is $10 per person each night.

The NPRA is billed as the largest regional rodeo organization in the western United States, each year sanctioning more than 40 rodeos throughout Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Nevada and California. According to the NPRA website, nwprorodeo.org, the association is designed to provide the opportunity for rodeo contestants “to compete at the professional level while remaining close to home, families, and weekday jobs.”

The field for the NPRA Finals includes a number of Central Oregon contestants, including Shane Erickson, of Terrebonne, who enters the rodeo as the men’s all-around season leader. He also is the season points leader in both the cow milking and tie-down roping events.

Another local entry, Terrebonne cowgirl Stevie Rae Willis, ranks second in the women’s all-around standings.

Tickets are available in Prineville at the Chamber of Commerce, Coldwell Banker Sun Country Realty and Prineville Men’s Wear; in Bend at Desperado Couture; and in Redmond at Big R. For more information, including a schedule of events, go to www.nwprorodeo.org.

PREP VOLLEYBALL

Busy Cowgirls sweep Lava Bears on road Bulletin staff report The Crook County volleyball team may not have been rested for Thursday’s match at Bend High, but it still delivered a victory.

Crook County won its match against Bend in straight games, 25-15, 25-17, 2516. After playing 11 matches over the previous nine days — including six two-game matches at a tournament in the Seattle area — the Cowgirls were able to beat the Lava Bears and remain undefeated in Intermountain Hybrid play.

Makayla Lindburg led the scoring for the Cowgirls with 17 kills and two blocks.

Hannah Troutman added six kills and four aces, and Kirsti Kelso logged five

kills. Braiden Johnston contributed nine digs for Crook County.

“Braiden was just a vacuum cleaner defensively,” said Crook County coach Rosie Honl.

Laken Berlin was another key contributor for the Cowgirls with five aces.

Kelsi Kemper added 31 assists for Crook County.

Molly Maloney led Bend’s scoring with seven kills. Amanda Todd recorded 17 digs for the Lava Bears, and teammate Cassidy Wheeler added three blocks.

Crook County (5-0 Intermountain Hybrid) and Bend (0-3 Intermountain Hybrid) are both back on the court on Saturday at the Rogue Valley Classic in Medford.

Crook County’s Laken Berlin (No. 1) digs a spike as teammate Kirsti Kelso looks on during a match at Bend High School on Thursday night. The Cowgirls defeated the Lava Bears 25-15, 25-17, 25-16.

ADVENTURE SPORTS

So long, summer But a host of biking and running events on tap still offers outdoor adventure

S

ummer is officially over.

Depressing, I know.

But head outside and it feels like summer remains in full swing, even though today is the first day of fall.

Outdoor enthusiasts still have time — and likely some sunshine and pleasant temperatures — to take on their favorite warm-weather adventures or perhaps find some new ones.

Sisters Mountain Bike Festival

MARK MORICAL This weekend is a big one for those looking to explore the high-elevation trails in Central Oregon:

In its second year, the Sisters Mountain Bike Festival this Saturday and Sunday coincides nicely with the Sisters Fresh Hop Festival. After cruising the trails all day, bikers can relax with some cold microbrews at the Village Green Park in Sisters.

The mountain bike festival includes

noncompetitive rides — cyclists can choose a distance of 20, 30 or 40 miles — as well as family rides and skills camps.

Saturday features the “Epic” 40mile ride from Bend to Sisters. From Bend’s Shevlin Park, bikers will climb up the Mrazek Trail all the way to Happy Valley and the MetoliusWindigo Trail.

Solheim cup

Solheim Cup teammates are more alike than at first glance

By Karen Crouse New York Times News Service

PRATTVILLE, Ala. — Juli Inkster, a pro golfer since 1983, was working on her game on the driving range at the recent Navistar LPGA Classic wearing an eggplant-colored skirt that hung loosely off her hips and fell an inch above her knees. The rookie Ryann O’Toole walked by in a sky blue micro-miniskirt.

Can the generation gap be measured in hemlines?

At first glance, Inkster and O’Toole appear as different as their eras: Inkster, 51, is the short-haired tomboy, all grown up, a 31-time Tour winner who rode the first wave of opportunities created by Title IX to a Hall of Fame career. O’Toole, 24, is the long-haired glamour girl whose big break came when she appeared on a

reality TV show.

In truth, Inkster, the wily Solheim Cup veteran, and O’Toole, the wide-eyed first-timer, share more than a place on the U.S. team that will compete in the biennial event today through Sunday in Dunsany, Ireland, against a European squad led by Suzann Pettersen, of Norway.

See Solheim / D5

By Anne M. Peterson The Associated Press

PORTLAND — Abby Wambach made the most of her last match before a little rest and relaxation.

The veteran on the U.S. women’s national team scored two goals in a 3-0 victory over Canada in a friendly at Jeld-Wen Field on Thursday night.

The exhibition was the second of a two-match Celebration Series to thank stateside fans for their support of the U.S. women’s team during the thrilling run in the Women’s World Cup in Germany this summer. The U.S. women faced Japan in the final but ultimately lost on penalty kicks.

After Thursday night’s match, both the United States and Canada were going to take some time off before preparations for Olympic qualification begin.

“This is the last game for us for the season, so we wanted to go out with a win,” Wambach said. “We wanted to give the fans something to cheer about.”

The teams played to a 1-all draw in the opening match in Kansas City this past Saturday. Wambach converted an early penalty kick to give the United States the lead until Melissa Tancredi tied it late in the first half. The result ended Canada’s sev-

en-match losing streak to the U.S. women.

U.S. coach Pia Sundhage has experimented during the series with a one-forward system, playing Wambach up front.

Canada, meanwhile, has been adjusting to new coach Jon Herdmann after a disappointing World Cup. The sixth-ranked Canadians lost to Germany, France and Nigeria to exit after the first round.

The two teams will start training again in November and December.

The top two teams from the CONCACAF qualifying tournament, scheduled for Jan. 19-29 in Vancou-

ver, British Columbia, advance to the London Games. The U.S. will compete along with Canada, Mexico, three teams from the Caribbean and two teams from Central America.

The crowd went wild for Megan Rapinoe, who played at the University of Portland. Twice in the first half she leveled what looked like winning strikes on the net, and twice she hit the crossbar. After the second, she threw her hands up in frustration.

“That’s football, I guess,” Rapinoe said afterward. “We got the goals in the end.”

THE BULLETIN • Friday, September 23, 2011 D3

PREP ROUNDUP

S B

Basketball • AP Source: NBA to cancel training camps: No labor deal, no training camps and no telling what else the NBA could lose. The lockout is about to start inflicting damage on the preseason schedule — and neither players nor owners can say what will happen to the real games. The league will cancel training camps and some exhibition games today after failing to reach a new collective bargaining agreement with its players, a person with knowledge of the plans told The Associated Press on Thursday on condition of anonymity because the league had yet to announce its plans. Training camps were expected to begin Oct. 3, and the exhibition openers were set for Oct. 9. But the cancellations, first reported by Yahoo Sports, became unavoidable after another meeting between players and owners Thursday failed to end the lockout, which began July 1. While providing no details of the meeting, Commissioner David Stern acknowledged that “the calendar is not our friend” when it comes to keeping the season intact.

• San Diego prosecutors reviewing Kobe Bryant case: San Diego prosecutors are reviewing allegations by a man claiming that Kobe Bryant injured him in a scuffle at a Carmel Valley church to determine whether any charges will be filed. Police say the Los Angeles Lakers star apparently thought the man was taking his picture with a cellphone at a Carmel Valley church during a Sunday service last month and took the phone from him. The man, whose identity has not been released, went to a hospital for treatment of an injured wrist. Bryant has denied the allegations.

• Fever top Dream in WNBA playoffs: Tangela Smith scored 25 points to lead the Indiana Fever to an 82-74 victory over the Atlanta Dream on Thursday night in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals in Indianapolis. Tamika Catchings, announced as the league’s most valuable player earlier in the day, added 12 points and 13 rebounds for the Fever. Game 2 of the best-of-three series will be played Sunday in Atlanta.

• Lynx roll past Mercury: Seimone Augustus had 21 points and seven assists to lead the Minnesota Lynx to a 95-67 victory over the Phoenix Mercury in Game 1 of the Western Conference finals on Thursday night in Minneapolis. Maya Moore scored 13 of her 15 points in the first quarter and Candice Wiggins added 14 off the bench for the top-seeded Lynx, who held the highest scoring team in the league 22 points below its regular season average. Game 2 is Sunday in Phoenix.

• Indiana’s Catchings earns WNBA MVP honors: Tamika Catchings of the Indiana Fever has been selected the WNBA’s most valuable player for the first time. The versatile 32-year-old forward, who was MVP runner-up in 2009 and 2010, averaged 15.5 points, 7.1 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 2.0 steals this season. Catchings had 21 of 40 firstplace votes, while Connecticut’s Tina Charles and Chicago’s Sylvia Fowles were tied for second with six first-place votes.

Baseball • AP source: No winter ball for Manny Ramirez: A person familiar with the situation says Manny Ramirez will not be allowed to play winter ball in the Dominican Republic because he neither served a suspension nor contested it following a positive drug test this year. The Cibao Eagles, a Dominican winter league team Ramirez played with in 1993-94, said this week he was expected to start training with the club. Major League Baseball and the Major League Baseball Players Association, however, have concluded Ramirez is ineligible, the person told The Associated Press on Thursday, speaking on condition of anonymity because management and the union did not announce that publicly.

• Family says beaten Giants fan is speaking again: Family members of a San Francisco Giants fan who was brutally beaten outside Dodger Stadium said he is speaking and more responsive than ever since his attack nearly six months ago. The family of Bryan Stow posted the update Wednesday on its website, saying his latest improvements came a week after he received a shunt to relieve pressure on his brain. Stow, 42, a paramedic from Santa Cruz, suffered severe brain injury when he was attacked in Los Angeles after the Dodgers’ home opener against the Giants on March 31.

He remains in serious condition at San Francisco General Hospital.

Football • Giants coordinator addresses faking injury issue: New York Giants defensive coordinator Perry Fewell would neither deny nor confirm that he has instructed his players to fake injuries to slow down an opposing offense. The St. Louis Rams accused the Giants, particularly safety Deon Grant, of feigning injuries on Monday night to slow down their offense after New York beat St. Louis 28-16 on Monday night. “I can’t say I’ve ever done that and I can’t say that I haven’t done that,” Fewell said Thursday when asked whether he told players to fake injuries. The NFL sent a memo Wednesday to all 32 teams on Wednesday warning of fines, suspensions and loss of draft picks if the league determines players faked injuries during a game.

Several players later admitted its an accepted practice, and some coaches hinted they are not above condoning phony injuries.

• Eagles QB Michael Vick back at practice: Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Michael Vick returned to practice Thursday, just four days after he suffered a concussion against the Falcons in Atlanta. During the portion of Thursday’s practice open to the media, Vick was seen throwing passes to assistant coaches, jogging around with teammates and participating in all the drills that the other quarterbacks participated in. The Eagles announced after practice that Vick was a full participant with no restrictions.

• Romo at practice with injured rib, lung: Tony Romo is back at practice with the Dallas Cowboys, his first since he cracked a rib and tore his lung during a comeback win at San Francisco.

Romo was on the field Thursday during the first 20 minutes of practice open to the media. He did not throw any passes and gingerly went through some stretches. He was not wearing a helmet. Coach Jason Garrett repeatedly referred to Romo’s status as day-to-day, with constant monitoring of his progress. He called it a good sign that Romo was on the field Thursday and said the quarterback doesn’t necessarily have to practice to be cleared for the game.

Bend boys soccer tops Crook County BLOCK PARTY

Bu lletin staff report Eli Kilmer and the Bend boys’ soccer team scored early on Crook County and did not relinquish their hold on the match.

Kilmer had a goal and an assist as the Lava Bears took a 3-0 halftime lead en route to a 3-1 win against the Cowboys in Thursday’s Intermountain hybrid contest.

“We played pretty well in the first half,” Bend coach Nils Eriksson said.

“We had some pretty good passing combinations in the first half.”

Two of the Lava Bears’ first-half goals were assisted: Kilmer’s secondminute goal by Zach Hite, and Aldy Larson’s 14th-minute goal, a diving header off a Kilmer pass.

Steven Dougherty scored Bend’s third goal of the half in the 23rd minute, nailing the rebound of a Scott Bracci shot.

Philipp Spierling put Crook County on the board with a second-half goal.

Though the Cowboys dug themselves an early hole, they played well in the second half, according to Crook County coach Joel Carrillo.

“We had good communication (and) the players played in control,” Carrillo said.

Bend (3-4) plays at Mountain View on Tuesday, while Crook County (0-41) plays at Roosevelt on Wednesday.

Also on Thursday: BOYS SOCCER Sisters. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .2 Junction City . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .1 SISTERS — Jake McAlister scored a goal and recorded an assist as the host Outlaws won for the first time this season in their Class 4A Sky-Em League opener against the Tigers.

With Sisters trailing 1-0 in the first half, McAlister’s 39th-minute goal tied the score. Keenan O’Hern took a pass from McAlister in the 77th minute and put it in the net for the decisive goal. Sisters (1-0 Sky-Em, 12-2 overall) plays at Cottage Grove on Tuesday.

Madras . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .3 La Salle . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .1 MILWAUKIE — After La Salle scored the first goal of the match in the 27th minute, Jahylen Yeahquo tied up the game when he netted a goal one minute later. The game was tied at halftime, but the White Buffaloes took over down the stretch, as Carlos Garcia scored in the 70th minute. Michael Giron topped off the scoring with another goal for Madras in the last minute of the game. Madras coach Clark Jones said the team’s midfielders helped secure the win for the White Buffaloes. Madras (5-0 overall) hosts Gladstone on Tuesday.

Johannesen’s 54th-minute goal came off of a corner kick by Hadlie Plummer.

Goalkeeper Rachel Estopare made some great saves for Summit, according to Storm coach Jamie Brock.

Brock said Summit was fired up for the match, but she said her squad had an ugly first half. “They (Sherwood) are the best team we’ve seen this season,” Brock said. Summit (5-1-1 overall) hosts Bend on Thursday.

Sisters. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .2 Junction City . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .1 JUNCTION CITY — Sisters piled up a big advantage in shots on goal (20-9) and converted just enough of those chances to secure the victory in the Outlaws’ Sky-Em League opener.

Sisters scored again six minutes into the second half as Reoch added a goal assisted by M.J. Murphy for a 2-0 lead.

“We actually played OK in the first half, did what we needed to do to get by and still have a chance,” said Madras coach Mike Osborne, whose team trailed just 1-0 at halftime. “But they scored again about 10 minutes into the second half, and that just kind of deflated us.” La Salle scored

twice in the final five minutes of the match. The White Buffaloes (0-1 TriValley, 1-4 overall) play at Gladstone on Tuesday.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL

Big 12’s Beebe out, binding TV rights on table

By Jim Vertuno

The biggest moves in realignment history It’s been a dizzying start to the college football season, not so much on the field as in the board room, where as conference loyalties have shifted (Syracuse and Pittsburgh to the ACC) and trembled (the Big 12). Perhaps some perspective is in order. While it’s more predatory these days, realignment has happened before. These are the five most significant conference additions and subtractions over the past 20 years.

1) Arkansas (Southwest Conference) and South Carolina (independent) to SEC in 1991.

In many ways, the Southeastern Conference caused a lot of this mayhem going on today.

The SEC became the first conference to break into two six-team divisions and in 1992 staged the first conference championship game. It turned out so well, others decided to copy it.

2) The Big Eight adds Texas, Texas Tech, Baylor and Texas A&M (Southwest Conference) to create Big 12 in 1996.

Weakened by scandals and the departure of Arkansas to the SEC, the SWC died after the 1995 season. The Texas schools joined a league that featured Oklahoma and Nebraska and split into two six-team divisions to play a title game. The first sign of problems came

early, though, when the Nebraska-Oklahoma series stopped being an annual rivalry.

3) Penn State (independent) to Big Ten 1993.

Happy Valley is in central Pennsylvania and, for years, Joe Paterno’s Nittany Lions were the considered the kings of Northeast football. By becoming the 11th member of the Big Ten — years after being rejected by the Big East when it was still a basketball-only conference — it shifted more power to the Midwest.

4) Florida State (independent) to the ACC in 1991.

The Seminoles were an emerging superpower under Bobby Bowden.

The ACC was a basketball conference, trying to bolster its football credibility. The result of the merger helped Florida

State more than the ACC. The Seminoles went on to win two national titles and contend for numerous others over the next 10 years, running roughshod over a conference that couldn’t keep up.

5) Miami, Virginia Tech, Rutgers, West Virginia, Temple (all independents) to the Big East in 1991.

Born as a basketball conference in 1979, the Big East decided to get into the football business 12 years later, adding national power Miami and the other four to Syracuse, Boston College and Pittsburgh.

The real significance was the geography of the league. Now the Big East stretched from New England to South Florida and college sports conferences were no longer bound to traditional borders.

There was talk of solidarity, plans for stability, expressions of encouragement.

And then there was a step toward forced confinement from the Big 12 as it sought to prevent any more departures following a topsy-turvy year in which it lost Nebraska and Colorado and learned it will lose Texas A&M soon enough.

The Big 12 dumped embattled Commissioner Dan Beebe on Thursday and announced a plan to bind nine member schools together by holding a huge financial hammer — their TV rights for the next six years — over their heads.

The plan is far from a done deal, since it must be approved by some if not all the schools’ governing bodies.

But if it sticks, any school that considers leaving the Big 12 would have to leave their TV rights — and millions of dollars — behind in a blow much more punishing than a typical exit fee.

“These are very strong handcuffs,” Oklahoma President David Boren said after Big 12 university leaders met for more than an hour by telephone. “The grant of rights really does bind the conference together and it shows that we fully intend to stay together.

Handcuffs. That’s what it has come to in a fractured league that seemed ready to split apart on Monday. And there are still signs the Big 12 has a lot of healing to do.

Oklahoma, which was trying to leave the Big 12 for the Pac-12 just a few days ago, and Missouri, which wanted

to leave for the Big Ten in 2010, even staged competing news conferences to start spreading the new message of goodwill and stability in the Big 12.

Texas officials, often portrayed as the Big 12 bullies, chose not to say anything at all. Still not addressed was whether the Big 12 wants to do something about Texas’ lucrative Longhorn Network agreement with ESPN that casts an ominous shadow over the rest of the league.

Beebe is gone after five up-anddown years that included securing a 13-year, $1.2 billion contract with Fox Sports but sharp criticism for failing to keep Nebraska (Big Ten) and Colorado (Pac-12) from leaving over the summer.

Texas A&M plans to leave by July for the Southeastern Conference.

Former Big Eight Commissioner Chuck Neinas will serve as interim commissioner. Boren said Neinas will not be a candidate to take the job permanently. Revenue sharing and a change of leadership were considered by some schools, notably Oklahoma, as the top issues to address to save the league in the latest round of conference realignment.

The Big 12 splits revenue from its Fox Sports contract evenly, but only half of the money from its top-tier deal with ABC goes into equal shares. The rest is weighted toward the programs that play on the network more frequently.

Boren said all nine remaining schools — all those except for Texas A&M — “agreed” to give a six-year grant of their first- and second-tier television rights to the Big 12.

American League roundup

National League roundup

• A’s 4, Rangers 3: OAKLAND, Calif. — Coco Crisp hit a go-ahead single in the eighth inning and Oakland beat first-place Texas to avoid a series sweep. The reigning AL champion Rangers had their magic number for winning the West Division reduced to two when the Angels lost to Toronto later Thursday night.

• Rays 15, Yankees 8: NEW YORK — Matt Moore struck out 11 in five innings of his first major league start and Tampa Bay unloaded on the watered-down Yankees a night after New York clinched the AL East title. The Rays avoided a four-game sweep and pulled within two games on idle Boston in the AL wild-card race. Both teams have six games left.

• Blue Jays 4, Angels 3: TORONTO — Edwin Encarnacion hit a game-ending home run in the 12th inning and Toronto beat Los Angeles, dealing the Angels another blow in their chase for a playoff berth. Encarnacion led off the 12th with a drive down the left field line off Garrett Richards (0-2), his 17th homer of the season.

• Orioles 6, Tigers 5: DETROIT — J.J. Hardy and Adam Jones homered and Baltimore ruined the Tigers’ homecoming. Back home from a road trip during which they clinched their first division title since 1987, were given a standing ovation when they took the field for the first inning. The crowd of 28,847, though, was the smallest at Comerica Park since June 29.

• Twins 3, Mariners 2: MINNEAPOLIS — Rene Tosoni hit an RBI double with two outs in the ninth inning and Minnesota snapped their 11-game losing streak, beating Seattle.

• Indians 11, White Sox 2: CLEVELAND — Asdrubal Cabrera drove in five runs and Jeanmar Gomez won his fifth straight start for Cleveland as the Indians beat Chicago to remain in second place in the AL Central.

• Mets 8, Cardinals 6: ST. LOUIS — The St. Louis Cardinals blew a four-run lead in the ninth inning and hurt their wild-card hopes when shortstop Rafael Furcal misplayed a potential double-play grounder, allowing the New York Mets to rally.

Ahead 6-2, the Cardinals walked three batters in helping the Mets take the lead with a six-run burst.

Willie Harris drew a walk to begin the inning and capped it with a tiebreaking, two-run single with two outs. The loss dropped St. Louis two games behind idle Atlanta for the wild card. Each team has six games left. The Cardinals lost for only the third time in 16 games.

• Dodgers 8, Giants 2: LOS ANGELES — Matt Kemp went four for five with a two-run homer and a career-high three doubles in his final home game of the season, Juan Rivera homered and drove in three runs and the Dodgers beat San Francisco, pushing the Giants to the brink of elimination in the NL West playoff race. The Giants open a three-game series at first-place Arizona today and a victory by the Diamondbacks, who were idle Thursday, would eliminate the defending World Series champions from the NL West race. They are four games behind Atlanta in the wild-card race.

• Nationals 6, Phillies 1: PHILADELPHIA — Brad Peacock, making just his second major league start, pitched 5 2⁄3 scoreless innings and Michael Morse hit a three-run homer. Roger Bernadina drove in two runs for the Nationals (76-79), who handed the division champions their sixth straight loss.

• Astros 9, Rockies 6: HOUSTON — Carlos Lee doubled and drove in four runs, pinch-hitter Matt Downs knocked in three more and the Astros beat Colorado, extending the Rockies’ losing streak to a season-high eight games.

Runners left in scoring position—Tampa Bay 9 (Kotchman, Joyce, Jennings, Jaso 4, Ruggiano 2); New York 6 (B.Laird 2, Teixeira, Golson, Posada 2).

Red Sox still have edge for wild card despite flop

By Howard Ulman The Associated Press

BOSTON — The pitching is in shambles. The hitting is spotty. And the defense?

The Boston Red Sox are dropping the ball there, too.

In less than three weeks, they’ve blundered their way from a smooth ride to the playoffs to a bumpy trip toward a spot on the list of historic collapses.

And, somehow during their wacky September, they still have the inside track on a postseason berth.

But, boy, what a way to go.

“I’ve been here, what, nine years? We’ve never collapsed that bad,” said David Ortiz, his roombrightening smile replaced by a blank stare.

“We’ve been through some tough times, (but) it’s bad. No matter what we do, things are going to be bad.”

The freefall began on Sept. 4 when the Red Sox began play with a nine-game lead over Tampa Bay in the AL wild-card race — more like a runaway at the time — and just a half-game deficit in the AL East standings behind the New York Yankees.

Since then, they are 4-14. After Thursday’s games, they led the Rays by two games and the Los

Angeles Angels by three games for the wild-card spot and were seven games behind the Yankees, who clinched the division title on Wednesday night.

It would have been worse if the Rays hadn’t lost a doubleheader to the Yankees while the Red Sox were falling to Baltimore 6-4. They got a break from the misery on a Thursday with a day off while the Rays and Angels played. That will leave each of the contenders with six games remaining.

But the Red Sox must go into Yankee Stadium for the start of a three-game series tonight before finishing with three in Baltimore.

“Nobody’s going to lay down for us. Nobody’s going to hand us any wins,” captain and catcher Jason Varitek said. “We’ve got to go out there and get it on our own.”

A few wins over the Yankees should quiet comparisons to the New York Mets’ collapse of 2007 when they missed the playoffs, squandering a seven-game lead by going 5-12 in their last 17 games.

“Anything left that we can try,” second baseman Dustin Pedroia asked. “We can play better. That’s basically it.”

Before the latest loss, pitcher Tim Wakefield snuck a peek over his shoulder at the clubhouse television as he walked toward the field, glove in hand.

It was the ninth inning of the Yankees’ 4-2 win over the Rays in the opener of the doubleheader.

The TV was off after Boston coughed up a late lead for the second straight day, walking back to the clubhouse to loud boos from home fans one day after the team passed the 3 million mark in attendance. At the time, the Yankees were minutes away from another 4-2 win.

“We have to take care of ourselves and then from there we’ll worry about what happens,” Varitek said, “but we control what we do by playing good baseball.”

The Red Sox reject observations that they lack an inner fire.

“Completely asinine,” closer Jonathan Papelbon said.

But they went meekly in Wednesday night’s loss.

In fact, they failed to get a runner — grounding out harmlessly on their last five at bats — in the last two innings after falling behind 6-4.

They say they’re not pressing.

“I don’t see it,” Ortiz said.

It’s indisputable, though, that the Red Sox are playing bad baseball.

“You have a day off to regroup,” manager Terry Francona said. “We certainly haven’t made it very

easy for ourselves. That doesn’t mean we can’t get where we want to go.

“But, we have our work cut out for us.”

During the current 4-14 slide, they’ve scored just 54 runs in the losses, the same number they’ve put up in the wins. The pitchers have an ERA of 5.81, starters have gone more than five innings in only six of the 18 games and fielders have made 22 errors to just 10 for their opponents.

One of the costliest flubs came in Tuesday night’s 7-5 loss to the Orioles, a game the Red Sox led 54 before Papelbon, who entered with 22 straight scoreless innings, gave up a three-run double to Robert Andino in the eighth.

In spring training, pitcher Josh Beckett said he thought the Red Sox could win 100 games after adding Carl Crawford and Adrian Gonzalez. Then they lost their first six and 10 of their first 12. But they bounced back and, by May 27, were in first place with a 29-22 record.

Can their fortunes change now — at a much more critical time — the way they did then?

“I hope,” Pedroia said. “Hopefully, it can.”

Until then, a season of such promise is in jeopardy.

“Right now,” Ortiz said, “it’s depressing.”

M OTO R S P O R T S : NASCAR

C O M M E N TA RY

In the NFL, it’s always open season on the hurt guys

Stewart in the thick of title race

JIM LITKE

By Jenna Fryer The Associated Press

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Tony Stewart picked “idiot” as his word of the week at Chicagoland Speedway, where he used it to describe some of his rival racers and, kind of, himself.

The two-time NASCAR champion went into the first round of the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship certain that only seven drivers could contend for the title this year. The way Stewart figured it, he was among the five drivers who had no shot at winning the Chase.

Asked what would happen if he actually did win the title, Stewart confidently said, “I’ll declare I’m a total bumbling idiot.”

It seems now as if Smoke might have been sandbagging just a little bit. Stewart picked up his first win of the season Monday at Chicagoland. The victory snapped a 32-race losing streak, extended his record to 13 consecutive years with at least one win, and, most important, rocketed him seven spots in the standings to second.

He goes to New Hampshire this weekend for Round 2 of the Chase trailing leader Kevin Harvick by seven points.

He still wanted to hedge his bets in a subdued postrace news conference, but was willing to admit his Stewart-Haas Racing team has picked it up a bit over the past three weeks. It would be an understatement to say he was terrible at Bristol, where he finished 28th, down three laps from the leaders.

But since then, he was third at Atlanta, seventh at Richmond and then won at Chicago.

“I’ve had a miserable year, but the last three weeks we’ve really started coming into it,” Stewart said.

That’s bad news for the competition since SHR dominated New Hampshire in July. He and teammate Ryan Newman combined to lead 167 of the 301 laps, and Newman led Stewart to a 1-2 sweep for SHR. Statistics show he’ll likely have another strong run Sunday: In 25 career starts at Loudon, Stewart has two wins, 15 top-10s and an average finish of 12.0. But, Stewart will have to make sure he’s not his own worst enemy. He’s been grumpy of late, and while the temperamental driver’s mood swings don’t usually raise eyebrows, his fixation on enforcing on-track etiquette could derail his title run.

It backfired on him earlier this season at Sonoma, where Brian Vickers intentionally wrecked Stewart as payback for Stewart’s enforcement earlier in the race. At the time, Stewart insisted he was not going to back off.

“I’m going to stay the course on it,” Stewart said. “I’m just to the point where I’m fed up with some of the way some of these guys are racing each other. If we miss the Chase because of it, so be it. There’s 42 guys out there, and they know how I race, they know what I expect.

And I don’t race them that way, I don’t block guys and I’m not going to block guys. But if they block me, they will suffer the consequences.”

His rage flared up again Monday, when as the in-race reporter for ESPN, he referred to some “idiots” on the track and vowed to put an end to their lack of manners. Moments later, he bulldozed to the top of the track and stormed into the lead with an aggressive but impressive pass. After, he held firm on his beliefs.

“I don’t think you’re going to see that etiquette anymore. I think it’s just dying off,” Stewart said. “I think guys don’t care whether they make anybody mad on the race track or not. They’re just going to do what they want to do and they’re only solely worried about themselves.

“So we’re going to start adopting that attitude. I’m tired of being a guy that gives a guy a break and then a guy doesn’t do it in return or the guy puts you in a bad situation. I’m just going to adapt to their style.”

Keegan Bradley lines up his putt on the 18th green during the first round of the Tour Championship at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta on Thursday.

Bradley takes lead in Atlanta The Associated Press ATLANTA — Keegan Bradley and Jason Dufner atop the leaderboard in Atlanta should sound familiar.

Only this was the FedEx Cup finale, not the final major of the year.

And they were on East Lake, not 40 minutes up the road at Atlanta Athletic Club.

Bradley, who won the PGA Championship last month in a playoff over Dufner, ran off four birdies on the back nine Thursday for a 6-under 64 to build a twoshot lead in the Tour Championship.

Dufner was surprisingly crooked off the tee, yet still managed a 66 and was tied for second along with Chez Reavie and Luke Donald, the No. 1 player in the world and one of five players in prime position to win the $10 million FedEx Cup bonus.

Bradley and Dufner will be in the last group today, and it was impossible to ignore the coincidence.

“Yeah, I don’t think there’s any big surprise,” Bradley said. “He likes this grass, too. He likes these courses, and I hope I get to play with him tomorrow. I think that would be a lot of fun.”

It would bring back great memories for Bradley, a 26-year-old rookie. Not so much for Dufner, who had a four-shot lead with three holes to play until he made three straight bogeys and wound up losing in a three-hole playoff.

“Maybe he’s having some of the same feelings — very comfortable on this type of golf course ... with the conditions maybe a little more severe at Atlanta Athletic Club off the tee,” Dufner said. “But he’s having a good day. Hopefully, we’ll be paired tomorrow. That will be a little interesting, I guess. Maybe some thoughts here or there will come back and forth.”

The Tour Championship is not just about memories, however.

Along with this being the end of the FedEx Cup, there’s another cup on Bradley’s mind. He is not a lock to be a captain’s pick for the Presidents Cup, despite having won twice this year, including a major. U.S. captain Fred Couples has said he would consider the Tour Champi-

GOLF ROUNDUP onship as one last audition.

Bradley could not have asked for a better start.

He holed a bunker shot from across the green on his second hole to fire up the fans, most of whom now know his name. After a sloppy three-putt bogey on the eighth, he hammered a 3-wood from 281 yards that rolled past the hole at No. 9 and set up a two-putt birdie, then really put it together on the back nine. He had a pair of short birdie putts, along with a two-putt birdie on the 15th and was feeling the good vibes from a month ago.

He is a long shot to win the FedEx Cup — especially with Donald playing well — but the Presidents Cup is right in front of him, and Bradley feels it.

“The cliché is to say that I’m not thinking about it, but literally probably every third hole — or maybe even less — it pops into my mind,” Bradley said. “I really want to be on the team, but I want to earn my way onto the team, just like I’m going to have to. If the captain and assistant captains think I’ve done enough to get on the team, they’re going to pick me.

“And if they don’t, that’s totally fair, too.”

The conditions at East Lake were relatively tame until the final hour, when sprinkles turned to rain and even halted play with the final two groups not finished. Donald returned to play the 18th in a driving rain, and did well to escape with par from the bunker on the par-3 closing hole.

Charles Howell III, whose appearance at East Lake guarantees another trip back to Georgia in April for the Masters in his hometown, was at 67 along with Adam Scott, Hunter Mahan, Jason Day and Matt Kuchar.

The group at 68 included another batch of Presidents Cup hopefuls, from Aaron Baddeley on the International team to Bill Haas and Brandt Snedeker on the American side.

Phil Mickelson also shot a 68 and is on

Bradley’s side — not because he wants him as a captain’s pick, but because they appear to share an affinity for golf in Georgia. Mickelson has won the Tour Championship twice at East Lake, along with three Masters and three regular PGA Tour stops in the Atlanta area.

Webb Simpson, No. 1 in the FedEx Cup, bogeyed the last hole for a 69. Of the top five players in the FedEx Cup — all of whom only need to win to collect the $10 million — Dustin Johnson (No. 2) was the only player not to break par.

He shot 70.

Luke Donald said he was thinking more about the silver FedEx Cup than the crystal Tour Championship trophy when he arrived at East Lake “because that’s what everyone is talking about.”

He also got off to a good start, important to him because he opened with a 75 last week at Cog Hill and took himself out of the tournament. Donald still managed to finish fourth.

“I wanted to get off to a faster start, put myself in better position, and I’m glad I did that,” Donald said.

Also on Thursday: Bond shoots 66 to lead Austrian Open ATZENBRUGG, Austria — Liam Bond, of Wales, shot a 6-under 66 to lead after the first round of the Austrian Open, taking advantage of less windy conditions.

Bond had four birdies on the last five holes and seven total for a one-shot lead on Thomas Norret, Daniel Gaunt and Joost Luiten.

The 193rd-ranked Bond missed the cut in his previous five events and needs a strong finish to the season to retain his tour card. Norret and Gaunt are chasing their card for next season.

Lewis, 54, wins Mid-Amateur RICHMOND, Texas — Randal Lewis became the oldest winner of the U.S. Mid-Amateur championship, defeating Kenny Cook 3 and 2 in the final match.

Lewis, 54, a financial planner from Alma, Mich., earns an automatic bid to the 2012 Masters by capturing the national championship for amateurs 25 years and older.

Solheim Continued from D1 Both are gifted athletes and fierce competitors who discovered golf relatively late.

Neither grew up imagining she would one day represent the U.S. in a prestigious team event. There was no such opportunity for women when Inkster was growing up. The first Solheim Cup took place in 1990, when she was in her eighth year on the LPGA Tour.

O’Toole’s initial dreams of representing her country revolved around softball at the Olympics. She played baseball until she was 10, then spent a few years as an infielder and pitcher on a traveling softball team. She also surfed and built skateboard ramps with the neighborhood boys. She was 13 when she accompanied a friend to a golf range for the first time. Some of her drives traveled more than 200 yards, which caught the eye of a club pro. He told O’Toole’s parents she had a promising future. O’Toole, burned out on softball, was game to give golf a try.

“This is easy,” she remembered thinking, “because the ball is still when you hit it.”

At San Clemente High School in California, O’Toole played golf on the girls’ team, which was not cool.

“The popular girls played soccer or were on the dance team,” she said.

After high school, she played golf at UCLA, where she earned a sociology degree in 2009. Her confidence and her public profile soared after she survived an audition to appear as a contestant on Golf Channel’s “The Big Break.”

Like O’Toole, Inkster had no expectations of playing in this year’s Solheim Cup. In 2009, Inkster was adamant that eight appearances were enough.

In January she told Jones she would be happy to travel to Ireland as a nonplaying assistant.

Then she qualified on points. Inkster’s main concern, she said, was her age.

She worried that her presence in team

U.S. Solheim Cup players stand for their national anthem during the opening ceremony for the 2011 Solheim Cup at Killeen Castle, Dunsany, Ireland, Thursday. meetings — where secrets and insecurities are shared — might make the other players uncomfortable, as if their mothers were in the room.

In the end, her conscientiousness prevailed over her self-consciousness.

In middle school, Inkster tried out for the cheerleading team, which is what all the cool girls did, and made it.

“Worst six months of my life,” she said, laughing.

The next year, she eschewed cheerleading to play on the girls basketball team. In her last two years of high school, Inkster played varsity golf alongside the boys because there was no girls team.

“Growing up, I didn’t really care what people thought,” Inkster said. “In order to play sports in my era, you had to have a strong sense of who you were because you got labeled a jock.”

Inkster was among the first wave of women to attend San Jose State on an athletic scholarship. She was a threetime U.S. Amateur champion, and in 1984, her first full year on the LPGA

Tour, she won two majors.

Inkster has won four of her seven major championships since becoming a mother to her daughters Hayley, 21, and Cori, 17. Her success in balancing a family and a career helped shatter the longheld belief that an athletic career and motherhood did not, could not, mix.

The generational joshing between the players often involves accessories. The younger ones tease Inkster for not owning a designer handbag until four years ago, for having golf shoes that are not color coordinated to match her outfits unless she happens to be wearing white, and for not being able to keep track of her sunglasses.

But as O’Toole pointed out, Inkster’s most prized accessories are her children.

“Which is really cool,” she said.

Inkster has always dressed in an ageappropriate manner. She said she was not about to change just to fit in with her Solheim Cup teammates.

“If you were to put stilettos and a short skirt and makeup on me,” she said, “it would look like Halloween.”

A

quick glance at the NFL’s weekly injury report should make you wince.

Players, on the other hand, scan it with a very specific purpose. They’re looking for targets.

After suffering a cracked rib and punctured lung, Tony Romo led the Dallas Cowboys to a comeback win last weekend that might have done more to build his cred with fans as a tough guy and leader than all his other accomplishments in six previous seasons combined. Because Romo and every other guy in the NFL routinely plays with pain, it’s a toss-up whether that says more about the NFL’s macho code or how clueless fans are about injuries. Either way, it put Romo front and center on the Washington Redskins’ hit list.

“Absolutely,” Redskins’ cornerback D’Angelo Hall said when asked whether he would go after Romo. “I’m going to get a chance to try to put my helmet on whatever’s hurt. If it’s Romo’s ribs, I’m going to be asking for some corner blitzes.”

Turns out Hall was just warming up.

“If I know Felix Jones’ shoulder is hurt, I’m not going to be cutting him. I’m going to definitely be trying to hit him high. That’s just part of it. If you know something’s wrong with an opponent, you’re going to try to target in on that,” he said. “We’re going to definitely try to get as many hats on those guys as possible.”

Never mind that Hall is hardly qualified to run his mouth. Now in his ninth season, he’s got fewer sacks (1½ career) than thumbs, and more than a few of the tackles he’s made have been by accident. Maybe inviting the refs at the game and the NFL’s disciplinary cops watching on TV to keep an eye on him isn’t as dumb as it sounds as the only time Hall figures to get close enough to Romo to deliver a blow will be during pregame warm-ups.

Yet none of it should detract from his message. Hall is saying what everybody else in the league is thinking every week. What gave his candor that little extra oomph, perhaps, is that it came during a week when the league seemed more focused on fake injuries than the real ones suffered by marquee names such as Romo and Michael Vick (concussion).

What got the NFL’s attention was a complaint by the Rams that the Giants’ Deon Grant went down with an injury — as if on cue — late in their game last weekend. St. Louis QB Sam Bradford claimed several New York defenders yelled “go down” in a bid to buy time against his team’s no-huddle offense. What made Grant’s injury more suspicious still was rookie linebacker Jacquian Williams cramping up at the same instant, then just as suddenly popping back to his feet.

By midweek, the NFL sent a memo to all 32 teams that warned of fines, suspensions and even the loss of draft picks if it determined players faked injuries during a game.

Giants teammate Mathias Kiwanuka labeled the warning “a dangerous path to go down,” and he’s right. Too many guys are playing with real injuries and risking lasting damage to their bodies as it is, and that’s before you take into account how little we still know about concussions. Vick, who already had his helmet modified last summer to lessen the force of blows to the head, went back to the same firm for more work this week as part of a bid to get back on the field.

The NFL responded to a growing body of evidence on concussions by putting a leaguewide protocol in place midway through the 2009 season. The number of concussions reported last year was 260, up considerably from the 200 reported in 2008. Dr. Thom Mayer, who advises the NFL Players’ Association on concussion-related issues, conceded he’s been “very busy” monitoring the first two weekends of the 2011 season.

“We’ve got to look at a lot more games to see if there’s a trend here or not,” he said in a telephone interview Thursday.

But Mayer also said he believes the numbers reflect cooperation from players in reporting concussions as much as an increasingly violent game.

“We’ve educated the medical staffs, coaches and trainers and put this ‘battle buddy’ concept in place ... so guys who know each other can get involved. We saw a great example of that last season with Aaron Rodgers and Donald Driver.”

Rodgers, the Packers QB, was concussed during a game against the Redskins last season and sat down. After his return, he took another big hit against the Lions and likely would have gone back in — risking a more severe concussion — until Driver asked him a few questions about the snap count and realized his pal needed medical attention.

“It meant sitting another game or two,” Mayer said. “But when you consider Green Bay goes on to win the Super Bowl, then go back and look at Rodgers’ chances of getting hurt in the Lions’ game, it probably had an enormous impact on their entire season.”

The problem is that few injury stories end that happily. Keep that in mind the next time your team’s star goes down and the only thing you care about is how soon he gets back in.

Crossing the country on just two wheels Three Idaho motorcyclists make their way across the United States

By Roger Phillips The Idaho Statesman

The Trans-America Trail is to motorcycle riders what the Appalachian Trail, Pacific Crest or Continental Divide trails are to hikers. It’s a test of endurance.

Father and son Dion and Kameron Battles, along with Dion’s brother, Cory Rowland, took on sections of the trail in a 3,000-mile ride in August that started in Louisiana and ended in Nampa, Idaho.

But it was more than a motorcycle ride.

“I thought it would be the ultimate father/son/brother getaway,” Dion said.

A thousand-mile journey may start with a single step, but their ride started with months of preparation, including buying a motorcycle and gear, arranging cross-country shipping and plugging dozens of coordinates into a handheld GPS unit.

They rode two Suzuki DRZ 400s and a Suzuki DR650, all dual-sport bikes designed to ride on pavement or off-road.

Buying gear and preparing the bikes alone cost thousands of dollars. The group got some help from Grizzly Sports in Caldwell and Western Power Sports, which provided discounted gear, expertise and helped ship two of the motorcycles to Louisiana, where Rowland is stationed in the Coast Guard.

“It’s amazing how much preparation it takes,” Dion said.

Dion and Kameron are experienced motorcycle riders. Dion, 38, was a former motocross racer. He and Kameron, 17, have spent many trips exploring the vast network of trails and roads in the Owyhee Desert.

Kameron, a senior at Skyview High School in Nampa, had never ridden longer than eight hours, or ridden a bike loaded with camping gear, food, clothes, tools, spare parts and other equipment.

His longest day on a motorcycle was about eight hours, and he was preparing for three weeks straight of riding up to 10 hours a day.

“Bikes have always been part of our lives, and this is the next phase. There’s a whole world to see.”

—Dion Battles, following a cross-country trip via motorcycle He also had to get his motorcycle endorsement so he could ride on paved roads during the trip.

“I didn’t know what I was getting myself into, but I couldn’t wait,” he said.

The pair met Rowland in Belle Chasse in the southeast tip of Louisiana just south of New Orleans.

The Trans-America Trail — the brainchild of motorcyclist Sam Correro of Cleveland, who envisioned, rode and mapped the 4,800-mile route — actually starts in Jellico, Tenn.

But the trio’s ride wasn’t intended to follow the route to Port Orford, Ore., across dirt and gravel roads turn for turn.

They wanted adventure, and they didn’t have to wait long.

Shortly after leaving Belle Chasse, they crossed the 24mile Lake Pontchartrain Causeway. They were hit by a southern-style downpour.

“Within the first hour of the ride we were getting hammered by rain,” Dion said.

They crossed the Mississippi River on a ferry, rode into the state of Mississippi and then into Arkansas and hooked up with the Trans-America Trail.

They rode 378 miles on the second day, which was the longest single-day part of the trip.

Dion said Arkansas’ farmlands and forests were an unexpected surprise.

“Arkansas was beautiful,” he said. “I had no idea.”

They turned north into Oklahoma, which was the low point of the trip because of its lackluster terrain and sweltering, humid summer heat.

“It was miserable. There were long, straight, flat gravel roads as far as you could see,”

Dion said.

“We didn’t want to be there, and that’s what kept us going,” Kameron added.

With the Rockies looming on the horizon, the group ran into more difficulties. One of the motorcycles had engine trouble, and the most difficult part of the route was ahead.

They made a detour into Wichita, Kan., to have it repaired. A mechanic said odds were good the bike would make it, but it was still a gamble.

“That was a huge decision to make,” Kameron said.

They spent four days crossing the Rockies, including six mountain passes that were more than 12,000 feet in elevation.

The terrain was the most challenging because much of the route is on old mining roads, Jeep roads, and other barely maintained dirt roads through the mountains.

Their shortest ride — 40 miles — was navigating the steep, rugged terrain.

“It was breathtaking,” Kameron said. “It felt like you were on the roof of the world.”

They fell into a routine along the way. After riding all day, Rowland and Kameron would set up camp and tend to chores while Dion prepared meals, which were often simple fare such as military MREs. They descended the Rockies into the off-road playground of Moab, Utah, where they lightened their gear-laden motorcycles and took them on simple joy rides on the area’s famous slickrock trails.

After Moab, it was across the barren Nevada desert toward Idaho.

“At that point, we were getting homesick because there was nothing exciting ahead,” Kameron added.

But the Trans-America Trail didn’t quench their thirst for adventure on two-wheels, it opened up new ideas for more adventures.

“Bikes have always been part of our lives, and this is the next phase,” Dion said. “There’s a whole world to see.”

Happily

unmarried

When it comes to getting hitched, more ask, ‘Why?’

By Alexia Elejalde-Ruiz Chicago Tribune

CHICAGO — t 36, Kristy Litz has watched most of her girlfriends marry and alight to the suburbs to start families.

But marriage is nowhere on Litz’s agenda. She wants children, and ideally a partner, but she has seen enough people divorce that she doesn’t see the point of walking down the aisle.

With a growing menu of socially acceptable living, mating and child-rearing arrangements to choose from, Litz is among the young adults wondering: Why marry at all?

“Marriage doesn’t seem to make life better,” said Litz, who works in operations management and enjoys being able to vacation, watch TV and go out with friends whenever she pleases. “I’m not saying love isn’t worth it, but I haven’t met anyone worth giving up my current life for.”

Over the past 50 years, marriage has slid from an economic and sexual necessity for women to an optional

milestone, thanks to birth control and women in the workplace, plus, for both men and women, the waning stigma of singledom later in life.

Married couples now represent less than half of American households, according to 2010 census data, down from 78 percent in 1950. A Pew Research Center survey published last year found that 52 percent of Americans were married in 2008, down from 72 percent in 1960, while the percentage of never-married Americans climbed to 27 percent from 15 percent. Meantime, the number of unmarried cohabiting couples has grown tenfold, the census shows.

The data don’t necessarily mean fewer people will marry over the course of their lives; rather, it reflects that people are marrying later and often living together first, said Judith Stacey, a sociologist at New York University and author of this year’s “Unhitched” (NYU Press). The average age of first marriage has climbed “astonishingly” fast, Stacey said, from 20 in 1960 to 28 today.

But there has undeniably been a cultural shift.

Yes, some kids in 4-H raise a cow or pig to take to the fair.

But there’s a lot more to 4-H than raising livestock.

Some 4-H members learn how to take photographs or decorate cakes or sew clothing or learn about science and technology and Lego robotics.

Truth is, 4-H can be about anything a child puts his or her mind to. New clubs spring up in new subject areas all the time, simply based on interest.

Candi Bothum, the 4-H program coordinator for Deschutes County, says 4-H isn’t really about the projects.

Whether the kid is learning to raise chickens or learning about aeronautics, the end goal is the same. “We’re a youth development program,” Bothum said. The goal is for kids to learn character development and life skills.

Each club contains a range of ages, so that those older students with more experience can help teach the younger kids.

That’s part of the experience as well, according to Bothum.

The program is about to start for the year. Now is a great time for kids and parents alike to check out the offerings available or even dream up their own club.

What: 4-H. There are more than 100 clubs are operating in Deschutes County, with more in Jefferson and Crook counties.

How it works: Kids can sign up to join existing clubs, which range from focusing on science and technology to flower pressing to dog showing.

Families can also try to form a club in a new project area. Students work on a project, such as raising a bunny or making a formal dress, and spend the year dedicated to that goal.

Ages: Grades 4-12 When: The 4-H year begins Oct. 1 and there’s a big push to get kids to sign up for a club during the first week, but kids can sign up at any time.

Time commitment: Expect to meet about twice a month, at least. Students will also work independently on projects.

Cost: $40 per year; cost includes project notebook but kids have to pay for other supplies (for instance, a cow to raise or fabric to make a jacket).

Contact: A list of current clubs can be found at www.des chutes4h.com or call 541-5486088. For Crook County, call 541-447-6228. For Jefferson County, call 541-475-3808.

A mile high no place to Disney series shakes up tween fashion teach people manners

By Rick Bentley

Zendaya Coleman and Bella Thorne star in the fashionably successful â&#x20AC;&#x153;Shake It Up!â&#x20AC;?

The Disney comedy about a teen dance show returns for a second season Sunday.

McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Dear Abby: I am a flight attendant for a major carrier. I encounter rude passengers every single day, as well as people (including children) with no manners. I accept that not everyone will be friendly to me. Some people are not capable of being friendly, and others may be going through personal issues and not realize theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re being rude.

I have a colleague, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Joel,â&#x20AC;? who canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get past this. If a passenger doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say â&#x20AC;&#x153;pleaseâ&#x20AC;? or â&#x20AC;&#x153;thank you,â&#x20AC;? Joel will respond with, â&#x20AC;&#x153;What do you say?â&#x20AC;? or, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the magic word?â&#x20AC;? or a sarcastic, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re welcome!â&#x20AC;? if a thank you hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been given. I am appalled by this. While I agree that manners are important, I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feel itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s my place to educate our passengers. Joel gets his point across with a rude, condescending tone.

Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s your take on this? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Attitudes in Altitudes, in Florida Dear A In A: From my window seat it appears there may be stormy weather ahead for your co-worker. However, this is a lesson he will have to learn for himself, so stay out of it. One of these days when he asks a passenger what the â&#x20AC;&#x153;magic wordâ&#x20AC;? is, someone is going to give him one that canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be printed in a family newspaper. Yes, Joel is out of line, and when enough passengers complain about him to the airline, he will suffer the consequences.

Dear Abby: I am an accepting person who can make friends with just about anyone. Among my friends there are some who identify as homosexual. I value their friendship because they are caring, honest and funny â&#x20AC;&#x201D; traits I look for in any friend.

My grandparents â&#x20AC;&#x201D; whom I am close to â&#x20AC;&#x201D; are not so accepting. They have strict beliefs regarding homosexuality. So whenever I want to talk to them about something interesting that happened when I was with my friend and his or her partner, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll

DEAR ABBY catch myself hesitating. I want to be able to talk to them, but I feel like every time I mention a gay friend it causes tension. Is there a way I can be graceful about this without stirring up bad feelings? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Rainbow Girl in Springfield, Mass.

Dear Rainbow Girl: Yes. Ask your grandparents if theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d prefer you tell them all about your activities and whom you spend time with, or if theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d rather you remain silent about your gay friends. Explain that you sense tension when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re open with them, and ask if theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d feel better if you were selective in discussing your life, your friends and your interests. That way the choice will be theirs.

Dear Abby: I am a middle-aged man with an older sister who criticizes the way I sneeze. She thinks my sneezing isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t â&#x20AC;&#x153;restrainedâ&#x20AC;? enough. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a question of direction or whether I put my hand in front of my mouth or not. She believes if I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t try to stifle my sneeze Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m uncouth. In my opinion, sneezing is a natural automatic response and serves to relieve whatever causes it. What do you think? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Something To Sneeze At Dear Something: I agree with you. And I am not convinced that trying to stifle a sneeze is healthy because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s natureâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s way of expelling something from the nose that is irritating.

LOS ANGELES â&#x20AC;&#x201D; It took the Disney Channel series â&#x20AC;&#x153;Shake It Upâ&#x20AC;? only one year to become fashionably successful.

The series about two friends â&#x20AC;&#x201D; CeCe (Bella Thorne) and Rocky (Zendaya Coleman) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; who land roles on a TV dance show is the highestrated series among kids 6-11 and tweens. If the second season â&#x20AC;&#x201D; set to launch at 8 p.m.

Sunday â&#x20AC;&#x201D; goes as well, it will become the highest-rated cable series of all time among tweens. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Shake It Upâ&#x20AC;? is so popular, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s inspired a new fashion line. This isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like previous Disney fashion lines that featured the images of actors on a T-shirt. The â&#x20AC;&#x153;Shake it Upâ&#x20AC;? clothing line from D-Signed â&#x20AC;&#x201D; available at Target â&#x20AC;&#x201D; is inspired by the charactersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; outfits on the cable series.

That means a wild mix of blacks, pinks, patches and accessories.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the showâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s costume designer, Jessica Replansky, who put together the distinctive looks for the actors. She works in a space that looks like a young girlâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dream, with racks and racks of clothes. One area features the gold, reds and purples that CeCe wears; another holds Rockyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s light, pink and feminine items.

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a wall with enough shoes and accessories to complete the wardrobe of a small army.

Replansky says the trick to creating a new look is just to keep an open mind. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am inspired by every-

thing when Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m walking down the street. You have to think outside the box when it comes to fashion â&#x20AC;&#x201D; especially when it comes to teenage fashion â&#x20AC;&#x201D; because the unexpected can be the coolest,â&#x20AC;? Replansky said.

Because this is a weekly TV show and very few pieces of wardrobe are repeated, Replansky is constantly creating new outfits. She starts by shopping at small downtown Los Angeles boutiques and at larger stores like Forever 21. She takes the items and transforms them by using patches, rhinestones or sparkles.

Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the key to making an outfit work: alterations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Almost everything I put on the girls I alter in some way. Take it in. Shorten it,â&#x20AC;? Replansky said.

Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s listens to the young cast because she thinks they have a great personal style.

Thorne says CeCeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s style is

manicureâ&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; where instead of the tips of her fingernails being polished a different color, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s on the bottom.

Colemanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s extremely excited about the new fashion line. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Before I was cast on this show, I did print jobs and I would wear the Hanna Montana shirts.

I would model those for Macyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and Mervynâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. Now I have my own line and I get to wear my own clothes,â&#x20AC;? Coleman said.

certainly her style. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I sometimes borrow stuff from the set because I would wear it.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really weird because when you see the outfit in the dressing room I am like â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to look like a mess.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; But when you put it on, it looks great,â&#x20AC;? Thorne said.

The showâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s stars are aware of how much fans pay attention to what they wear. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re constantly trying to come up with new fashion elements each week. In the first season, fans noticed Coleman wore a different nail polish color each week. For a second-season episode being taped, Coleman has gone with a â&#x20AC;&#x153;reverse French

KIDSPOST

Why it’s hard to fall asleep sometimes

By Howard Bennett Special to The Washington Post

If you’re anything like my kids, summer vacation is a time for swimming, ice cream and staying up late.

The problem with staying up late is that it can throw off your internal clock and lead to insomnia. In addition, if you repeatedly don’t get enough sleep, you are more likely to get sick or do poorly in school. (Sleep experts say kids ages 6 to 12 need 10 to 11 hours of sleep a night.)

Humans are diurnal animals, which means we function best

if we are awake in the daytime and asleep at night. In the days before electricity, Mother Nature helped people regulate their sleep cycle with the sun. When it got dark outside, the brain produced a chemical (melatonin) to gradually turn down its activity and help us get ready for sleep.

Although the electric light bulb has been around for more than 100 years, nowadays there are a ton of gadgets (iPods, cellphones, video games, etc.) that interfere with how light affects your ability to sleep.

Electronic devices interfere

with sleep in two ways. First, they keep your mind active.

Second, they shine a bright light into your eyes that fights the natural tendency to turn down brain activity in the evening.

Here are some suggestions to help you get a good night’s sleep: • Exercise: Getting an hour or more of exercise per day is good for you in lots of ways, including sleep.

• Use your bed just for sleeping: If you sit on your bed to do homework, play games and chat with friends, you will associate your bed with fun activities.

• Keep your sleep routine the same: If you stay up late on a Friday and Saturday night, your brain may not be able to adjust when you want to go to sleep at a more reasonable time the rest of the week. So stay up only one extra hour on weekends.

• Don’t overschedule yourself: If you cram your after-school time with soccer practice, music lessons, clubs and other responsibilities, you may be so wound up at the end of the day that your brain can’t let go. There is no magic answer for overscheduling (adults do it, too).

Sawyer Nelson (Nathan Gamble, left) helps Dr. Clay Haskett (Harry Connick Jr.) with the injured dolphin Winter in “Dolphin Tale.” Full the full review, see GO! Magazine.

By Roger Moore The Orlando Sentinel

‘Dolphin Tale’ Rating: PG for some mild thematic elements.

What it’s about: Kids help take care of an injured dolphin at a marine hospital and watch as it inspires everyone it meets.

The kid attractor factor: Cute kids and a very cute dolphin, which happens to need a prosthetic tale.

Good lessons/bad lessons: “Just because you’re hurt, doesn’t mean you’re broken.”

Violence: Soldiers injured in war meet an injured dolphin.

Language: Disney clean.

Sex: Not a hint.

Drugs: None Parents’ advisory: Uplifting, maybe a little too precious for anybody older than 15, but perfectly OK for all ages.

‘Abduction’ Rating: PG-13 for sequences of intense violence and action, brief language, some sexual content and teen partying.

What it’s about: A teenager learns his parents aren’t who they say they are and is hurled into a cross-country escape from assassins as he looks for the truth.

The kid attractor factor: Team Jacob’s idol, Taylor Lautner, and hot starlet of the moment Lily Collins.

Good lessons/bad lessons: A teen “surfs” on the hood of a speeding truck, for kicks. And gets plastered at a beer bust.

Violence: Quite a bit, with a pretty high body count.

Language: Some profanity Sex: Flirted with.

Drugs: Beer at the beer bust.

Parents’ advisory: A thriller aimed at older teenagers, you may want to have a lecture about “not trying this at home” as far as the “surfing” goes. Suitable for 15 and older.

‘The Lion King 3-D’ Rating: G What it’s about: A young lion prince grows up in exile, only

to learn how much his kingdom needs him.

The kid attractor factor: This is an animated classic, in 3-D, on the big screen.

Good lessons/bad lessons: “Being brave doesn’t mean you go around looking for trouble.”

Violence: Yes, animated Language: Disney clean Sex: None Drugs: None Parents’ advisory: Suitable for all ages.

‘Seven Days In Utopia’ Rating: G What it’s about: A young golfer loses his cool on the course and retreats to a small town for a little on- and off-the-course mentoring.

The kid attractor factor: Golf, cattle country humor, a taste of rural America Good lessons/bad lessons: “Gifts aren’t meant to be repaid, they’re meant to be passed on.”

Violence: None Language: Disney clean Sex: Flirtations Drugs: None Parents’ advisory: A mild-mannered, faith-based film that goes easy on the preaching, this may not hold the interest of younger kids. Suitable for 10 and older.

‘Spy Kids 4: All the Time in the World’ Rating: PG for mild action and rude humor What it’s about: Kids are called on to spy when their secret-agent mom gets into a fix.

The kid attractor factor: Spying kids experienced in “4D,” aka 3-D plus “Aroma-Scope” scratchand-sniff cards.

Good lessons/bad lessons: Wasting time is a major crime — to some.

Violence: Slapstick Language: Pretty clean, aside from jokes about bowel movements and vomit Sex: Nary a hint Drugs: None Parents’ advisory: Harmless enough to be suitable for all ages, though the gimmicky 3-D and scratch-and-sniff cards aren’t worth the extra admission costs.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Friday, Sept. 23, 2011: This year, you gain a greater sense of direction, as you are focused. You will not scatter your energy; you will be most direct. A male or assertive friend plays an unusual role in your year. You might resent how hard this person can push. Learn to say “no.”

Don’t lose sight of your goals. If you are single, you could meet someone through an expanding circle of friends. If you are attached, the two of you will bond by socializing more. LEO helps get you moving.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHHH Others could be a handful in the next few months. What you need to do is not personalize everything you hear or what others do. It isn’t always about you! If there is a theme, do look at it. You work well with a child or loved one. Tonight: Let your hair down.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH Remain more sensitive to different people, especially if they are involved with you personally.

Your private life seems to take precedence. You want to think through your feelings and a sudden insight. A friend plays a significant role. Tonight: Buy flowers or a favorite dessert — something that will make the evening special.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Your creativity emerges when speaking to others. Some might feel you are witty; others think you are funny. You want

to stay on message. A meeting takes an alternate path, one you did not anticipate. Tonight: Hang out with friends.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH Be aware of the costs of pursuing a certain path. It could cause an unexpected twist. A boss or someone you look up to continues to act in a most unpredictable manner. Pull back if you are uncomfortable.

Tonight: Treat time.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHHH The Moon empowers you, just in time for the weekend. You can clear out a lot of work, complete a project and get more done than you anticipated. An unexpected communication surprises you for a short while. Tonight: Have a ball. Love the moment.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Know how much you have to offer, and even if you are feeling insecure, don’t step back. You might be inclined to undermine yourself in a discussion where someone does the unexpected. Stay centered and claim your power.

Tonight: Vanish while you can.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHHH The Sun enters your sign, allowing greater visibility. You know what you want and where you are heading. A friendship means much more than you are willing to acknowledge. The only person you are hurting is yourself.

Tonight: The world is your oyster.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH Others need to know where you stand. Your nerves could be fried by a demanding

week and a lot of changes in your daily life. Revamp your thinking. Evaluate how much you hold on to the unnecessary.

Tonight: Leader of the gang.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHHH Focus on your longterm goals, especially when you are in a meeting. Your creativity could flare, adding to any situation.

Your finances could swing back and forth. You have the energy to complete any project.

Tonight: Where the action is.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH A partnership or an involvement with another source of money keeps you on your toes. You might be a little too manipulative, and others respond in kind. Lots of answers come in your direction. Tonight: Go with another person’s plans.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH Clearly someone else is in control. You might need to review a matter with greater care. Your ability to visualize could be very different from others’. Present your ideas as clearly as possible. Tonight: The only answer to an invitation is “yes.”

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Continue to deal with others directly. Someone feels so good when you focus on him or her.

Use care counting your change, adding and subtracting funds or even paying bills. You could be distracted. Tonight: Out with friends.

E6 Friday, September 23, 2011 • THE BULLETIN

Unwed Continued from E1 “I think we’re at a crucial point where marriage is going from being the expected, traditional, assumed way of living to one that’s very much in question,” said Bella DePaulo, visiting professor of psychology at the University of California, Santa Barbara, and author of several books about choosing singlehood, including this year’s “Singlism” (DoubleDoor).

The Pew survey found that 39 percent of Americans think marriage is becoming obsolete. But as the fight for samesex marriage shows, it remains highly valued, and most young people aspire to marry even as they condone alternative family structures.

In interviews with 120 young adults for her 2009 book, “The Unfinished Revolution: How a New Generation Is Reshaping Family, Work and Gender in America” (Oxford), New York University sociologist Kathleen Gerson found that the overwhelming majority plan to marry, but they’re not in a hurry, and if they can’t meet the high standards they have for themselves or their partner, they’re OK staying unwed.

Both young men and women want marriage to entail lasting commitment, independence and flexible gender norms of how spouses are supposed to behave, Gerson said. They’re wary of divorce but wouldn’t stay in a bad relationship. Half of the young adults she interviewed whose parents stayed together said they may have been better off if their parents had divorced.

Ironically, Gerson said, as marriage becomes less something that everyone has to do, it’s become more symbolically valued, as the primary reason to do it is love.

Of course, another big draw of marriage is the legal benefits.

That’s the only reason Katia Garrett and Don Salzman married after 21 years of unwedded bliss, during which time they’d bought a house together and had two kids.

Garrett, 51, a lawyer in Washington, D.C., for years opposed marriage because she believed it locked people into husband and wife roles — he’s the breadwinner, she maintains the house — that she wanted no part of.

By staying unmarried, Garrett felt, she and Salzman could more consciously negotiate how

What about children?

At the National Marriage Project, a research initiative at the University of Virginia, a primary concern is how postponing or opting out of marriage affects kids, 24 percent of whom are now born to unmarried cohabiting partners.

In a recent report, the group called cohabiting couples “the largest unrecognized threat to the quality and stability of children’s family lives.” Cohabiting couples with kids are more than twice as likely as married couples to break up before the child is 12, the report said, and family instability has been linked to school failure, behavioral problems, drug use, physical abuse and loneliness.

W. Bradford Wilcox, director of the project, worries that when young adults hold out for a “soul mate” marriage, rather than viewing marriage as a social good, childbearing becomes a separate, spouse-less journey. In a 2010 Pew Research survey, 52 percent of 18- to 29-yearolds said being a good parent is “one of the most important things” in life, while just 30 percent said the same about having a successful marriage, suggesting they’re increasingly disconnecting the two institutions. (When young adults were asked the same questions in 1997, 42

Why the decline?

The brunt of the marriage decline has occurred among moderately and least-educated Americans, perhaps because the loss of manufacturing jobs has left people feeling financially ill-equipped to marry, but also because shifting social mores have left them less marriage-minded, said W. Bradford Wilcox, director of the National Marriage Project. College-educated Americans have the most stable marriage culture.

Between 1960 and 2008, marriage rates dropped to:

64% from 76% among college-educated Americans.

50% from 72% among Americans with some college.

48% from 69% among Americans with a high school education or less.

Source: Pew Research Center

they wanted their relationship to function without bending to assumptions.

Once they had kids, the protections legal marriage affords,

percent said parenting and 35 percent said successful marriage.)

While the vast majority of kids in any family arrangement do just fine, on average children thrive better in an intact married household, Wilcox said.

But even putting kids aside, Wilcox challenges attitudes that marriage is merely a piece of paper. The collective ritual sends an important signal to couples and their community that they take certain norms seriously, he said, and the outside support and accountability helps the health of relationships.

“You’d be a lot more concerned about seeing a married friend who is two-timing than a cohabiting friend who is cheating on his girlfriend,” Wilcox said.

Other scholars dispute the prevailing consensus that marriage is better for kids and couples than other arrangements.

Judith Stacey, whose book “Unhitched” explores marriage and family setups in different cultures, said kids need a consistent, attached, decent relationship with at least one adult, preferably two, but marital status doesn’t matter.

What’s more damaging to kids not living with their married biological mom and dad is living in a culture that stigmatizes it, she said.

such as Social Security benefits if someone dies and hospital visits if someone gets sick, became more important. But aside from those protections, a great party and having a wedding anniversary (which Garrett can never remember), marriage has made no difference.

But haven’t studies shown married people to be healthier and happier?

DePaulo, whose book “Singlism” discusses discrimination against singles in our “matrimaniacal” society, said those studies unfairly count only married couples who have stayed married (and therefore probably like it), and not those who abandoned ship, which gives a misleading message that marriage necessarily leads to greater happiness.

She points to one German study that found marriage gave a temporary bump in life satisfaction around the time of the wedding, but after several years happiness returned to premarital levels. Those who ended up getting divorced, meanwhile, had lower life satisfaction during marriage, the study found.

And what about the security of having a lifelong companion as you age? DePaulo, who is 57 and happily never married, said studies show married couples spend less time than singles calling, writing and visiting with their friends, neighbors and extended family. Putting all their eggs in the marital basket can

make married people more vulnerable if something happens to their spouse, she said.

Pamela Haag, author of the new book “Marriage Confidential” (Harper Collins), believes marriage isn’t dying so much as adapting to a “post-romantic” spirit that doesn’t assume a spouse must be your end-all, beall forever, which has become a tall order now that people are living so long.

Instead of taking or leaving the institution as is, some couples are adapting marriage rules to fit what they need, be it by loosening expectations of monogamy or committing just to co-parent until the kids are grown up, Haag said.

Rather than fret about the potential pitfalls of shifting marriage expectations, Gerson said it would be more helpful to create a culture that addresses the new challenges, such as more flexible jobs and social policies that treat unmarried and married people equally.

“For better or worse,” Gerson said, “these changes are here to stay.”

Toys Continued from E1 The beat detection functionality can recognize different types of music and perform different dance moves for each beat. Integrated Sonic Chirp technology is special audio coding embedded into an external device or media platform (mobile applications, webisodes, television commercials, etc.) that when detected by Fijit, triggers various programmed reactions.

Overall, continued play rated high on the fun value but even higher with our team of tech reviewers.

Testers’ Tip: “For classroom use, this is a fun rainy day option for recess. For home use, this is a great tool to explain how technology works to inquiring minds before play.”

The Magic School Bus — Jumping into Electricity

By The Young Scientists Club, $19.99 Ages 5 and older Toy Tips: B+ Fun: B+ Movement: A Thinking: A Personality: B Social Interaction: B+ This science kit focuses on teaching all about electricity. There are experiments with instructions on how to generate lightning bolts, use anti-static sheets, make cere-

al dance, bend a water stream, create static hair, construct an electric circuit, build a light switch, how to experiment with insulators and conductors and design an electric game. These experiments are not difficult, though testers in the 6-8 age group enjoyed them the most.

Whether this is done individually with a parent, as a classroom project or as a home-school activity, there is a lot of science discussion to be had. What we liked best about this set is that minimal materials are needed from home and the experiments showcase different elements of science and how and why things do what they do.

Testers’ Tip: “Ideal as a birthday present for any child that shows an interest in science and technology.”

ASK MR. DAD

Oh, boy, Dad, it’s time to talk about girl stuff

By Armin Brott

Handling a daughter’s transition into puberty can be a squeamish experience for some dads. Dads play an important emotional supporting role through this stage of a teenage girl’s life.

McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Q:

My wife is in the Army and just deployed overseas, where she’ll be for a year. Our daughter is 11 and I’m worried that she’ll start her cycle while my wife is away. I don’t know what to tell her about her body.

What do I do?

A:

As the father of three daughters, I know exactly what you’re going through. The whole female puberty thing makes a lot of guys squeamish.

But the good news is that it’s really not that difficult — especially since your daughter most likely won’t include you on her Top 10 list of people to get advice on puberty from anyway.

So your first assignment is to find an adult woman to run point.

This could be a relative, friend, or even one of the female spouses whose husband is deployed with your wife’s unit. Whoever she is, she’ll be able to walk your daughter through the basics and give you a list of supplies you’ll want to have on hand.

But this doesn’t mean you can back away completely.

As odd as it sounds, you actually have a very important role to play here (more on that below).

That’s why you should learn as much as you can about girls’ puberty, just in case things don’t go exactly according to plan (and when was the last time they did?)

Here’s a quick overview: The process begins somewhere between ages 8 and 14.

Your daughter will start to develop breasts, she’ll start growing hair on her genitals and under her arms, her skin may start breaking out, and eventually she’ll start menstruating. The whole thing usually takes from 18 months to as long as seven or eight years to complete. If your daughter seems to be starting

Thinkstock

at the very early end of the age range or hasn’t started by the end of the range, have a talk with her pediatrician.

Your daughter may feel fat, embarrassed and uncomfortable in her new body. She may be constantly comparing her rate of development to that of her girlfriends and, if she’s started early, she may have to deal with some increased attention from boys — attention she may not be psychologically ready for.

Here’s where you come in.

A lot of dads aren’t sure how to behave around their pubescent daughters and opt to back away physically — as if they’re worried about doing something inappropriate. Don’t do that. Your daughter needs to know that what she’s going through is normal and that you, the most important male in her life, love her whether he body is changing or not. If you push her away (literally or figuratively), no matter how good your intentions, she’s going to feel rejected.

It’s also important that you keep talking to her — not about

puberty, just about what’s going on in her life. Tell her you love her. A lot. And spend plenty of dad-daughter time together. Not taking an interest in this way is — in her mind — another sign of rejection. Daughters who have close relationships with their fathers do better in school, are more likely to go to college, are less likely to get pregnant or use drugs, and have better mental health (less depression and anxiety and better self-esteem).

In addition, researchers at Vanderbilt University found that girls whose dads are actively involved in caregiving start puberty later than girls who have more distant — or nonexistent — relationships. One of their theories is that pheromones from biologically related males suppress puberty, while those from unrelated males might accelerate it.

Celebrate local arts, music all weekend at the Bend Roots Revival

By Ben Salmon • The Bulletin

T

hree days. Eight stages. Nearly 100 (mostly) local musical acts.

Now in its sixth year, the basics of the Bend Roots Revival are pretty much the same as they’ve always been, if a little bigger all around.

But dig a bit and you’ll find an underlying theme for the 2011 version of this celebration of local arts that happens this weekend (see “If you go”).

That theme can be summed up in one word: New. There’s a new stage layout. Organizers have created more space between stages in an effort to address the “sound bleed” that plagued the festival in 2010, its first at Bend’s Century Center complex.

(They’ve also scheduled bands more thoughtfully, working to ensure an acoustic troubadour isn’t drowned out by a rock band on a nearby stage.)

There’s also a new partnership with local humanitarian group Rise Up, and with it a renewed focus on Bend Roots’ educational component.

Roots founder Mark Ransom has always touted his goal of furthering arts education in the com-

munity; Rise Up’s involvement will give Roots supporters a vehicle to sponsor such efforts, he said. “(Rise Up) is all about education and the arts (and) I wanted a partner that would create a channel for educational outreach,” he said. “This year, the focus is that channel. When you support Bend Roots, your money goes three places: to pay for the festival this year, a little seed money for (next year), and to educational outreach, which we’re calling the Rise Up-Roots Educational Project.”

Ransom is committed to keeping the Revival a free event, so the two groups will raise money via donations, sales of Roots and Rise Up merchandise, and by taking control of some beer sales at the festival. (Original vendors Parrilla Grill and The Victorian Cafe are still on board, too, he said.)

The setup — specifically Rise Up’s nonprofit status — will put Ransom closer to his original idea of Roots as a year-round supporter of the arts and arts education.

“I think the vision was always there,” he said. “At the core of it, it’s a revival. It’s a grassroots uprising

to support the arts. It’s not just a festival that happens once a year.”

It is the festival, however, that has become wildly popular, drawing an estimated 4,500 people last year. And this year, there’s new blood on the stages. From the groovy jam-rock of Your Birthday and The Dream Symphony to the youthful exuberance of Three Up Two Down and The Code to the easygoing folk-pop of Aisea Taimani and Consider the Fox, new faces and names dot the schedule.

Add in some talented regional artists (Brooks Robertson, Pete Kartsounes, Kathy Marshall among them) and the popular cornerstones of the local scene (Mosley Wotta, Empty Space, Anastacia, Moon Mountain Ramblers, etc.) and you’ve got a well-rounded grassroots gathering.

At the Bend Roots Revival, even “new” feels familiar. It’s that same feeling you get when you’re at home, surrounded by friends and family.

Consider the Fox

The Woods

4-5 p.m. Saturday, Good Life Stage Erin Cole-Baker and Chris Beland have been regular presences on the local music scene over the past few years, gigging all over town and filling the air with their charming, contemplative tunes. Now, like some sort of folk-pop Wonder Twins, they’ve combined forces under the name Consider the Fox. If their solo work is any indication, these Foxes will offer melodies that stick for days and harmonies that descend from on high. Look for a collaborative album eventually from these longtime friends.

Noon-12:30 p.m. Sunday, Good Life Stage What to say about The Woods? Good question. For some time, the band comprised Ian Carrick, Tyler Robson, Austin Skelton and Mikey Angus. But then Carrick and Robson went their own way; they released an album just last week.

Now, Carrick is off to school in Seattle and, this weekend, The Woods are Carrick and Skelton. Got all that? Doesn’t really matter, what’s important is the sound: melodic indiefolk like you’d hear at that mythical nexus of Bon Iver and Mumford & Sons that everyone’s digging these days.

11:30 till late tonight, Century Stage Every once in a while, this knobtwiddling duo bubbles to the surface of the local music scene, intent on making people dance. But Phoebe and Bryan Swett’s electro-hypnosis isn’t powered by big beats and bass. Instead, Flying Kites’ sounds are more subtle, pulsing with skittish snares, staggering synths and other odd blips and bloops that always seem to show up unexpectedly, plus Phoebe’s icy cool vocals. Visit www.soundcloud.com/flying_kites and click the “Play” button to get lost in your headphones.

6:30-8 tonight, Good Life Stage Central Oregon artists make up the majority of the Bend Roots Revival’s schedule, but don’t let local-scene territorialism stop you from checking out Brooks Robertson, a virtuosic fingerstyle guitarist from Portland.

To be sure, Robertson’s six-string wizardry isn’t just flashy for the sake of being flashy. The guy has incredible skills — he plays lead, rhythm and bass all at once — but also incredible tone; his tunes are graceful, gorgeous workouts of jazz, classical, folk and beyond.

1-1:30 p.m. Saturday, Casey’s Corner A relative mystery man in the Revival’s lineup, we can piece together a bit about Aisea Taimani from the Internet: preacher’s son, lover of Asian cuisine, native of The Kingdom of Tonga. More importantly to Roots-goers, Taimani knows his way around the acoustic guitar, which he uses to create deeply soulful, intensely introspective pop music. His Facebook lists Ben Harper, The Roots, Marvin Gaye, Sam Cooke and Jon Foreman among his influences.

That should tell you more than Google ever could.

A weekend in the city Highlights from the musical nirvana known as MusicfestNW

F

or each of the past five years, I’ve attended MusicfestNW, a multi-genre live-music extravaganza that features 200 bands playing at more than 20 venues across Portland over five nights.

Until just a few weeks ago, though, I didn’t realize that MFNW is the third-largest indoor music festival in America, right after SXSW in Austin, Texas, and the CMJ Music Marathon in New York City.

SXSW and CMJ are industry schmoozefests, both known for their ability to catapult bands from obscurity to next-big-thingdom.

MFNW isn’t that way. It’s more focused on performances than shaking hands and signing deals.

But that doesn’t mean I can’t treat it as my own personal land of discovery. After all, Bend gets a lot of great shows, but it’s rare we get an appearance by a band that’s buzzing on a national scale.

The 2011 version of MFNW — held Sept. 7-11 — featured some big names: Band of Horses, Iron & Wine, Explosions in the Sky, Macklemore, The Kills, Blind Pilot, Blitzen Trapper. I saw only one of those; Explosions in the Sky was effortlessly epic as usual, especially in Pioneer Courthouse Square against the gorgeous lights of dusk in downtown Portland.

Instead, I spent my MFNW seeing veteran artists like reunited indie heroes Archers of Loaf, R&B/soul guitar legend Dennis Coffey, Australian cult stars You Am I and punk icons OFF! and Ted Leo. And when I wasn’t doing that, I was digging deeper into the schedule and showing up early to venues to see up-and-coming acts.

Three stood out as extremely promising, while three Portland bands showed why that scene continues to turn out big-time success stories. Here’s a quick roundup:

Feedback

BY BEN SALMON • I’ve had “In Light,” the debut album from Givers, in heavy rotation for a few months now. But it did not prepare me for the live power of this Louisiana-based band.

For two solid hours, Givers was explosive, emotional and totally satisfying. The fresh-faced quintet — led by Tiffany Lamson and Taylor Guarisco — is a joy to watch, and they flavor their indie-pop with African and Zydeco sounds, like a female-fronted Vampire Weekend that oozes Southern charm rather than Yankee

smarm. Bouncy tunes like “Saw You First” and “Ceiling of Plankton” are pleasant on the record, but on Friday night of MFNW, they turned the normally chilly Doug Fir Lounge into a sweltering, exuberant dance party. It was the best and most surprising set of my weekend.

• Purity Ring is smartly following the current path de rigueur to buzzy Internet fame: host an inscrutable Tumblr, release songs sparingly and online, stay mysterious, then watch the synth/fuzzobsessed music blogs fawn.

In most cases, the fawning is unwarranted. But this is not most cases. On Thursday night at the Doug Fir, Corin Roddick and Megan James played a set as oddly beautiful as the three songs they’ve put out into the world.

Roddick played a series of pipes

joined together and connected to a mixer; each tap produced a synthesized sound. He used the mixer to produce on the fly, chopping up beats and James’ icy, ethereal vocals to create a stuttering blend of indie-pop, hip-hop and dubstep.

The duo calls their music “future pop,” a descriptor that is not only a tad presumptuous, but also totally apt.

• Before the New York band White Hills took the stage Saturday night at Ash Street Saloon, it was clear this was going to be a big show. Frontman Dave W.’s face was painted silver, while bassist Ego Sensation (a she) wore tight, shiny red pants and glittery shoulder armor.

The band did not disappoint, cranking out thick, swaggering slabs of heavy psych that burrowed down into a subterranean

groove and stayed there until it was time to blast off into space aboard one of Dave W.’s limber solos. It was noisy. It was pummeling. It was awesome enough that I bought a White Hills T-shirt that won’t fit for more than I should’ve paid. It has some sort of weird mushroom world on it.

• Among the Portlanders, a quick shout-out to the snappy soul band Monarques, the spastic pop-rockers in Archers and master songcrafter Holcombe Waller, all of whom should be huge. The Rose City’s talent pool is seemingly bottomless, much like MusicfestNW, where some of the best stuff can be found in the more uncharted areas of the schedule.

Hank III returns to Bend’s Domino Room Hank Williams III has always done things his own way. That much is for sure.

He’s loud, he’s brash, and he’s the grandson of a country music legend who does play country, but also any other style of music that strikes his fancy.

Here’s the thing, though: Hank III’s current undertaking may be his most independently minded move yet. On Sept. 6, Hank III released not one, not two, but three new albums on the same day, on his own indie label, of course. As you might guess, they’re all over the map.

“Ghost to a Ghost/Guttertown” is off-center country music. “Attention Deficit Domination” is Melvins-style doom-rock. And “Cattle Callin’” is a 23-track speed-metal record built around the sound of an auctioneer’s call.

You read that right.

To celebrate, Hank III is on the road, playing three-hour sets that run the same gamut as the records. Visit www.hank3.com for more info.

Hank III, with Tribulation 99; 8 p.m. Thursday, doors open 7 p.m.;

Mare Wakefield “grew up with wanderlust embedded in her DNA,” according to her bio, thanks to a childhood that gave her eight hometowns before she was 10 years old.

She hasn’t stayed much more still in adulthood. She left the songwriting heartland of Texas to cut her gigging teeth in the Pacific Northwest, then went to Boston’s Berklee College of Music before settling (for now) in Music City, U.S.A., aka Nashville, Tenn.

Also, her husband’s name is Nomad. Seriously.

And yet Wakefield’s music feels so strongly rooted. Visit www. marewakefield.com to sample her brand new album “Meant To Be,” which overflows with easygoing folk-pop and Americana, soaring melodies, and heartfelt lyrics about life and love, and probably some other stuff that doesn’t matter nearly as much as life and love.

Mare Wakefield; 7 p.m. Monday; $15 suggested donation in advance, $17 at the door, includes home-baked goodies; Windance House Concert, Bend; call 541306-0048 for reservations, location and more information.

Cymbals Eat Guitars LENSES ALIEN Barsuk Records “Is it teeth-shaking polyphony?” demands Joseph D’Agostino in the final moments of “Lenses Alien,” the restless, impressive second album by his indie-rock band, Cymbals Eat Guitars. All around him is pressure: wailing distortion, throbbing bass, drums pounding six beats to a bar. “Grace and completion,” he continues, as the tumult starts to crest. Then, in a curdled howl, suddenly alone with his guitar: “Or nothiiiiing!”

D’Agostino, who hails from Staten Island, has earned a reputation for intensity and verbosity, at least within the shrewdly messy parameters of his music.

The reputation hasn’t been long in coming: Cymbals Eat Guitars, which he formed with a high school friend, drummer Matt Miller, released its debut album just two years ago. But that collection, “Why There Are Mountains,” was sturdy, with a touch of jittery intrigue. It led to a lot of

touring and just as much acclaim.

More circuitously, it led to “Lenses Alien,” a leaner album that manages to feel rattling and unruly, even if it’s less of a surprise. Cymbals Eat Guitars has been through personnel changes since 2009, coalescing around D’Agostino, Miller, keyboardist Brian Hamilton and bassist Matthew Whipple. The slippery force of the album speaks to their rapport. Produced by John Agnello, who has also worked with some of D’Agostino’s totems (notably Sonic Youth and Dinosaur Jr.), it feels like a proper band effort, rather than the fleshed-out blueprints of a single mind.

Not to minimize D’Agostino’s outpouring. His designs are musically shifty, producing songs that slacken and snap back, or swerve around unexpected corners.

His often-associative lyrics can resemble a word salad — “The empty skull lolls milky cataracts peel,” he sings early in the opener, “Rifle Eyesight (Proper Name)” — but he stops short at meaninglessness. (Really.) He’s a sidelong storyteller, juggling the personal and prosaic, and never stooping to the conventionally artful use of a refrain.

— Nate Chinen, The New York Times

Grace Jones HURRICANE [PIAS] America “This is my voice, my weapon of choice,” Grace Jones states to open “This Is,” the first track on “Hurricane.” Her dance-hall declamations, insistent, commanding, and set against an aggressive, percussive rhythm, make her sound a bit like M.I.A. or, more precisely, show M.I.A.’s debts to the peerless Jones. When Jones sings, you listen.

“Hurricane” first came out in the U.K. in 2008 but is only now seeing its long-deserved U.S. release. It looks to Jones’ past both stylistically (it reunites her with the mighty Sly & Robbie, her collaborators on her classic albums from the 1980s) and lyrically (it includes some surprisingly auto-

George Strait HERE FOR A GOOD TIME MCA Records Nashville George Strait is a model of reserve, balance and craft — what else were you expecting? — on “Here For A Good Time,” his latest studio record in a remarkably steady thirty-year career.

But his craft seems such a group effort. His stone-carved phrasing is an aggregate of others that sometimes tips over into direct homage: George Jones in the perfectly relaxed honky-tonk shuffle “Shame On Me,” and Merle Haggard in the mellow and passionate “House Across the Bay.” You can set your watch by the three-verse structures in the songs: the dilemma and moral, or the setup and punch line, arrive with punctuality. They’re written by others, including his son and recent secret weapon, Bubba

Wild Flag WILD FLAG Merge Records So-called “super groups” — prominent musicians from disparate bands who come together to jam — are often super in theory only, a collection of egos united in the name of commerce. But “Wild Flag” is something else entirely.

The quartet’s self-titled debut is a combustive mix of indie-rock veterans: two-thirds of Sleater-Kinney (guitarist Carrie Brownstein, drummer Janet Weiss), the guiding force in Helium and countless other projects (Mary Timony) and a key member of the Minders (keyboardist Rebecca Cole). Together they’ve made one of the year’s best albums.

Whereas Sleater-Kinney was celebrated for its intensity and

Lindsey Buckingham biographical songs about Jones’ mother). But it also features some updated twists (Tricky cowrote the trip-hoppy but heavy-handed title track). It’s not quite a return to the glories of “Nightclubbing” and “Living My Life,” but it’s a worthy late addition to Jones’ catalog.

— Steve Klinge, The Philadelphia Inquirer

SEEDS WE SOW Mind Kit Records Starting with 1981’s “Law and Order,” Fleetwood Mac co-frontman Lindsey Buckingham has been writing, recording and producing great solo works — it’s just that they’re starting to sound alike after all

Strait, and Dean Dillon, who’s written dozens of songs for Strait.

He’s a passionate moderate. His party songs don’t really fly anymore: “Blue Marlin Blues,” a fishing and drinking song, is weightless. At this point he’s most genuine when being reasonable, wistful, reassuring or grateful: to a woman or to his entire audience in the aw-shucks-thank-you “I’ll Always Remember You.” And

that’s the golden mean of his delivery; that’s the grain of his voice. That’s also how he’s able to moralize from a great height, secularly or not, while seeming like your friend.

The title track is a shuffle about living while you can, a prolonged cliche delivered with style: “Bring on the sunshine, the hell with the red wine, pour me some moonshine.” But only a thimbleful, please. “Drinkin’ Man” displays, through a triptych of shame, an addict’s craven behavior through various stages of life. And then “Poison” psychologizes addiction, through versions of it: alcohol or a woman with a “razor tongue and a heart as blue as glacier ice.” It reasons that “anything can bring you pleasure, even pain.” Someone has been watching Dr. Drew.

seriousness, constantly questioning the world around them, Wild Flag channels a different kind of passion. The album is about letting go, getting lost in the moment. Dancing, lusting and abandoning control. Feeling supersedes intellect. Or as Wild Flag sings in “Romance”: “Shake, shimmy, shake!”

That impulse is conveyed most forcefully in the music.

The sturdily constructed songs brim with backing harmonies that evoke the girl groups of the ’60s (“Something Came Over Me”) or the new-wave kicks of

these years.

As usual, “Seeds We Sow” has impeccable high vocals, beautiful guitar-playing alternating between angry and soothing, well-crafted songs and a heavy rhythmic quality; best song here is the outraged “One Take.”

— Steve Knopper, Newsday

the Cars (“Endless Talk”).

Yet the melodies never feel particularly stable or static, as the band gleefully pulls them apart and whips them around the dance floor. That sense of teetering on the ledge of chaos, of melody threatening to spill over into mayhem, makes “Wild Flag” a debut for the ages.

Luck of the Irish Rob Kerr / The Bulletin

Seven Restaurant & Nightclub offers a couple of pool tables along with many big-screen televisions.

Seven Restaurant serves a menu from the Emerald Isle

By John Gottberg Anderson For The Bulletin

S

even is considered by many to be a lucky number. But the Seven Restaurant & Nightclub in downtown Bend also depends upon the luck of the Irish to entice diners as well as dancers.

With half of its menu devoted to “Irish classics” — dishes such as corned beef and cabbage, bangers and mash, and boxty — the onetime Grove Cantina and Village Grill seems to be celebrating St. Patrick’s Day year-round, even though its third anniversary will fall on Halloween.

As I am not active in the local nightclub scene, I can only consider Seven from the restaurant side of the ledger. Sorry to say, from a diningout perspective, it is not a place that

I would choose to frequent.

The establishment doesn’t open until 6 p.m., and I’m guessing it doesn’t begin to fill up until well after dark.

On neither of my early-evening visits was there anyone present to greet me at the door and guide me to the dining area; I saw only a cavernous room with a couple of pool tables.

Around the corner, a friendly bartender held forth in a dark room with a few high tables and flat-screen TVs, backed by a stage and large dance floor. Fortunately, both drink pourers — a woman on my first visit, a man on my second — were imbued with personality, providing a little light to an otherwise boring space.

The bartenders took my meal orders, which were delivered from the kitchen with reasonable speed, as

should be expected in an all-but-vacant restaurant.

Irish pub fare My first order was a traditional dish of the British Isles, a shepherd’s pie. The meal deserved praise for the tender chunks of sirloin steak that went into its preparation — a far cry from the fatty ground beef more frequently cooked into the dish.

But the rest of the “pie,” served in a bowl, was not of the same quality. The beef was stewed in a poorly seasoned, flavorless brown gravy with peas, carrots and potatoes, then topped with a thick layer of creamy mashed potatoes.

restaurants From previous page I sense that the only difference between the Irish stew, also on the menu, and the shepherd’s pie is that layer of garlic mash.

My server suggested I try a hard-boiled egg, Irish-style. Like a Blarney Stone version of a deviled egg, it came deep-fried in a sausage skin, presented with a stone-ground mustard sauce. It was tasty but not something I need to have again.

Several other items on the Irish menu piqued my interest, including bangers and kraut (that’s sausages and cabbage) and boxty (a potato pancake with a kitchen-sink filling that varies from day to day). I might someday be drawn back by the corned beef, braised for more than 12 hours (according to the menu), served with cabbage; or the fish and chips, with red snapper that has been battered with Guinness stout.

American style The second half of Seven’s menu is dubbed “Yankee Faves.”

These include a cheeseburger and a veggie burger, fish and chicken sandwiches, chicken strips and a chicken Caesar salad.

I ordered a house salad and a pulled-pork sandwich.

The salad was good. It was made with mixed greens as well as sliced red onions, grape tomatoes, croutons, shredded cheese and (per my request) honeymustard dressing.

I found the sandwich to be disappointing. The meat itself, purchased from the Redmond Smokehouse, was excellent, generously blended with a sweet honey-bourbon barbecue sauce.

But it was served on a dry, undressed hamburger bun that added nothing to the flavor of the meal. Even something as simple as tomato and onion would have been a welcome addition.

Fortunately, most of Seven’s patrons come not for the food, but for the entertainment. Owner-operators Megan Kleck and Brian Timme — whose wife, Karen, is a regular weekend performer as Ultra DJ Girl — offer a full weekly schedule of events.

These include pool tournaments, salsa and swing dancing lessons on Wednesdays and Thursday, and various karaoke and comedy nights. And its owners have nothing but good things to say about the technical side of their business, which they call “one of the best sound and lighting systems around.”

Pete Erickson / The Bulletin

Liam O’Sruitheain, playing Studs Terkel, appears alongside Lilli Ann Linford-Foreman, left, and Kelli Kirkman in “Hard Times,” a new play based on Terkel’s oral history of the Great Depression.

‘Hard Times’ gets into the heart and soul of the Great Depression

By David Jasper T h e B u lle t in

‘S

ee, I’ve never heard of that word ‘depression’ before. People always just say ‘hard times’ to me.”

So begins “Hard Times,” Innovation Theatre Works’ original, in-house adaptation of the Studs Terkel book “Hard Times: An Oral History of The Great Depression.”

Published in 1970, the book features accounts from famous and unfamous men and women who lived, struggled and endured in the wake of the stock market crash of 1929.

Innovation’s stage interpretation, directed by Brad Hills, opens tonight at the Bend theater (see “If you go”).

And the play’s subject matter is hardly yesterday’s news, said Hills.

“We want everybody to gain a sense of hope out of this,” he says. “But not a ‘sense of hope’ of everybody getting together and singing ‘Kumbaya.’ More a sense of hope of, it’s time to go to your windows, throw them open and say, ‘I’m mad as hell and I’m not gonna take this anymore.’

“Because you’ll hear a lot of things in the play and you’ll go, ‘Oh, it’s 70 years later and nothing has changed.’”

Hills likes Terkel’s ability to get people to “really get down to how they feel about things and how they felt about things,” he says. “It’s such a great counterpoint to history. Facts are interesting and they’re one thing, but really it’s about much more than numbers and places and dates and times. It’s much more about how things make people feel, and the impres-

sions that are left in the aftermath of what goes on that really makes history.”

The idea to adapt the book “has been in my head for a long time,” Hills said before rehearsal last week. He decided to finally tackle the project after he learned Redmond High School planned a production based on “The Grapes of Wrath” for later this fall.

“I said, ‘What if I were to haul out my Studs Terkel idea? Their show’s in November, and I need something for September. What if we did that and used (them) as bookends?’”

Innovation’s stage adaptation is a very condensed version of the book, and Hills was still pruning the script the evening of the rehearsal. His estimate for the final product is a running time of close to 2¼ hours.

Happy fall equinox, arts lovers! Last summer — as in a few weeks ago — 40 painters, canvases in hand, met at Indian Ford Meadow Preserve near Sisters.

According to a press release, they had their canvases stamped at 9 a.m. sharp and were given just four hours to finish and frame their original works of art.

Due to popular demand, Cat Call Productions has added a matinee show of “Chicago” for 2 p.m. Saturday.

The musical opened one week ago to a mostly packed house at the Tower Theatre, and subsequent weekend performances sold out completely.

According to a press release announcing the addition, with just 50 or so seats left for the remaining shows, “calls have been pouring in to the Tower Theatre requesting additional performances.”

Tickets are $25 and on sale at the Tower Theatre box office, 835 N.W. Wall St., in

downtown Bend.

Sunriver Music Fest ticket sales see boost Sunriver Music Festival wrapped up its 34th season seeing a 28 percent increase in ticket sales over the 2010 season, according to a press release.

The Pops Concert at Bend High, which featured Thomas Lauderdale of Pink Martini, brought in record ticket sales, and this year’s Tower Theatre sales were more than 18 percent higher than last year’s ticket sales at the Bend venue, where the festival held two classical concerts for the third year running.

“Our 34th season presented a few challenges, including a tighter festival schedule due to venue availability, and a big change at the conductor’s podium due to our long-time artistic director’s health challenges,” said Pam Beezley, executive director of the festival, in a press release.

As the festival bid farewell to Lawrence Leighton Smith after 24 years on the podium, George Hanson, artistic director and conductor of the Tucson Symphony, stepped in and led the Sunriver Music Festival orchestra in five performances.

The Munich Symphony Orchestra, Pacific Chorale and Phoenix Boys Choir perform the score during a screening of “The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring.” The concert and screening of the film runs Oct. 18 at the Rose Garden in Portland.

The sounds of Middle-earth ‘Fellowship of the Ring’ concert set for Portland

By Jenny Wasson The Bulletin

A

film’s music can transport an audience to a new time and place and enhance a scene’s emotions. In “The Lord of the Rings” trilogy, composer Howard Shore used instruments and composers from around the world to help transport J.R.R. Tolkien’s Middle-earth from page to screen.

Usually in the background, the music takes a starring role when “The Lord of the Rings in Concert” rolls into Portland’s Rose Garden on Oct. 18. The event features a screening of Peter Jackson’s “The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring” while a live orchestra plays Shore’s Grammy award-winning score.

The first film of “The Lord of the Rings” trilogy, “The Fellowship of the Ring” premiered Dec. 19, 2001. The concert is the first installment of a three-part series celebrating the 10th anniversary of its release. “The Two

Towers” will tour in 2012 and “The Return of the King” tours in 2013.

Led by conductor Ludwig Wicki, the event features more than 200 musicians including the Munich Symphony Orchestra, Pacific Chorale, Phoenix Boys Choir and soloist Kaitlyn Lusk. The film will be projected on a 60foot screen behind the musicians.

According to the Rose Garden’s website, “Shore’s score not only captures ‘Fellowship’s’ sweeping emotion, thrilling vistas and grand journeys, but also echoes the very construction of Tolkien’s Middle-earth.”

Ticket prices range from $35 to $95, depending on seat location. To purchase tickets, visit www.rosequarter.com or 877-789-7673.

gaming A powerhouse on ice ‘NHL 12’ makes some stellar fixes, but it’s not all OK

T

he perfect combination of size, speed and presence, a good power forward can change the complexion of a hockey franchise. Legends like Peter Forsberg and contemporary bigs like 2011 MVP Corey Perry smother defenders on the forecheck, don’t shy away from contact in the corners, and are immovable enough to provide screens or position themselves for rebounds in front of the net. In previous NHL games, their general ineffectiveness made them the first guys I dumped in Be A GM mode; they weren’t fast enough to escape contact, and smaller players could easily knock them off the puck. Thanks to the addition of net jostling and a tweaked physics engine that makes it tougher for squirts like Daniel Briere to upend guys who tower over them, the power forwards are once again relevant in “NHL 12.”

The refined physics and net battles are just two of the many great improvements to the gameplay this year. With under-the-hood signature traits determining how an AIcontrolled player should react, your teammates become more involved in the attack. Offensive defensemen join the rush, pass-happy centers hole up in Gretzky’s office behind the net, and snipers put themselves in position for one-timers. With goalies fighting to see through screens and pucks rebounding off their pads more

“ N H L 12” aims to round out the gameplay with net jostling and tweaked player physics. naturally, “NHL 12” has the most diverse goal scoring I’ve seen to date.

However, some goals aren’t deserved. Refs blow calls regarding goaltender interference (leaving an open net), and defensemen are too lax in denying wraparounds or cuts toward the crease.

Hopefully, developer EA Canada can address some of these problems with the downloadable tuner updates.

Be A Pro mode benefits the most from the new gameplay improvements. Since the revamped player AI is much more engaged in the offensive zone, it’s easier to trust your teammates and pass them the puck.

The new in-game task system also helps the mode feel more dynamic. If your team is behind one goal in the third period, your coach may encourage you to even up the game and reward extra ex-

New game releases The following titles were scheduled for release the week of Sept. 18: • “Aya and the Cubes of Light” (Wii) • “Call of Duty: Black Ops — Rezurrection” (PS3, PC) • “Burnout Crash!” (X360, PS3) • “Rotastic” (X360)

‘NHL 12’ 8.75 (out of 10) PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 EA Sports, EA Canada ESRB rating: E for Everyone perience points for doing so.

While moving up the ranks in Be A Pro, players unlock nine legendary NHL players like Wayne Gretzky, Ray Bourque, and Patrick Roy. Though it’s fun taking these stars for a skate, Be A Legend misses the mark by placing them on contemporary teams instead of recreating the retro vibe like 2K Sports did with “NBA 2K11’s” Jordan Challenge mode.

The franchise-style Be A GM mode also aims for the net but ends up shattering the Plexiglas.

For the second year in a row,

• “Cubixx HD” (PS3) • “Pinball Hall of Fame: The Williams Collection” (3DS) • “Resident Evil 4 HD” (X360) • “Fallout: New Vegas — Lonesome Road” (PS3, PC, X360) • “Brunswick Pro Bowling” (3DS) • “Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 2 — Innocent Sin” (PSP)

trades, free agency, and drafting all need major overhauls.

AI-controlled GMs still propose boneheaded trades, above-average players in their prime still get stowed away on minor league rosters, restricted free agents sit out entire seasons, and some teams even let their highly rated prospects enter free agency rather than signing them.

The two other NHL destination modes, the EASHL online hockey league and Hockey Ultimate Team collectible card mode, maintain their high quality by making a few small but welcome tweaks.

Though the Be A GM mode needs a major overhaul and the new Legends feature falls flat, “NHL 12” is still strongest where it counts on the ice. Just like a wellrounded power forward who can dominate in all three zones, you can’t deny the benefit this brings to the club.

• “Supremacy MMA” (PS3, X360) • “F1 2011” (X360, PS3) • “Harvest Moon: The Tale of Two Towns” (DS) • “Gears of War 3” (X360) • “Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 2” (DS) • “Kirby Mass Attack” (DS) — Gamespot.com

Weekly download ‘BLOODRAYNE: BETRAYAL’ For: PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 From: WayForward/Majesco ESRB Rating: Teen (suggestive themes, mild language, violence, blood and gore) Price: $15 Some shaky games and awful movies left little doubt that a change of scenery would be good for the half-human, half-vampiric Rayne. Whether it’s also good for you comes down to whether you tolerate punishment or embrace it. “BloodRayne: Betrayal” takes what formerly was a traditional action series and re-imagines it as a lavishly animated 2-D sidescroller with cartoony but graphically violent look. That animation is elaborate to an arguable fault, particularly when you’re trying to dodge peril and one Rayne’s attack animation creates a slight but critical lag in control.

Responsiveness is at a premium, too, because “Betrayal” is stiffly difficult in a “Mega Man 9” kind of way and occasionally unreasonably hard when it asks you to make some very precise jumps with jump and dash controls that aren’t so precise themselves. Those who pride themselves on mastering cruelly challenging games will get their money’s worth several times over, thanks to a campaign that’s tough to beat and a scoring/ranking system that’s merciless and demoralizing.

‘Moneyball’ is a smart bargain Intensity of characters, story line show this isn’t just about sports

I

n the 2002 season, the nation’s lowest-paid Major League Baseball team put together a 20-game winning streak, setting a new American League record.

The team began that same season with 11 losses in row. What happened between is the stuff of “Moneyball,” a smart, intense and moving new film that isn’t so much about sports as about the war between intuition and statistics.

I walked in knowing what the movie was about, but unprepared

for its intelligence and depth. It centers on the character of the Oakland Athletics’ general manager, Billy Beane (Brad Pitt), who after a bad start as a major league player, moved over to management and was driven by his hatred of losing. In his previous season, he’d taken the A’s to the World Series, only to have them lose and their best three players hired away by richer teams offering bigger salaries.

Faced with rebuilding the team at bargain basement prices,

ROGER EBERT

“Moneyball” 133 minutes PG-13, for some strong language Beane became persuaded by the theories of Peter Brand (Jonah Hill), a nerdy recent Yale graduate who crunched numbers to arrive at a strict cost-benefit analysis of

baseball players. He persuaded Beane that he should hire based on key performance statistics that pointed to undervalued players.

Together, they assembled a team that seemed foolhardy at first, but during the course of an agonizing season proved itself the biggest bargain in baseball.

“Peter Brand” is based on people described in the 2003 book “Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game” by Michael Lewis. Jonah Hill’s performance is understated and fascinating in the film; a pudgy kid who has never played a baseball game in his life, Peter has analyzed decades of baseball stats to prove that gamewinning qualities are not always the ones veteran scouts look for.

He’s shy and quiet, advancing his theories tentatively but with firm certainty; he’s an amusing contrast with the team’s grizzled, tobacco-chawing scouts — who are looking for all the wrong things, he argues.

Brad Pitt’s Billy Beane, based on the team’s real general manager, is an inward and lonely man, recovering from a failed marriage and doting on his daughter Casey (Kerris Dorsey). He’s so driven he can’t bear to watch a game in the stadium, and sometimes drives aimlessly while listening to it on the radio. He’s fully aware that if he follows his theories for the full season and they fail, that will make him unemployable.

‘Abduction’ has its moments Taylor Lautner as action hero is not a bad thing

‘T

wilight” alumnus Taylor Lautner makes his debut as a leading man in an action film tailor-made — ahem — for him. “Abduction” puts Lautner in motion and never goes very far wrong as long as he remains in motion.

The buff teen werewolf of “Twilight” plays a young man who has his world upended and finds himself on the run when enemy agents attack his home and the people he knew as his parents aren’t who they say they are. In the opening minutes, we meet Nathan (Lautner), a studly wrestler in high school, constantly tested by his strict and martial dad (Jason Isaacs), nurtured by his more understanding mom (Maria Bello).

If only they knew how he “surfed” on the hood of a pal’s pickup truck, how he gets blotto at teen beer busts. Dad finds out and punishes the kid with more mixed martial arts training. No wonder the boy’s in therapy. Sigourney Weaver is there to listen when Nathan complains that “I still have the dreams.”

But a class project with his elusive, unavailable neighbor (Lily Collins, eyebrows to die for) sends them to a missingchildren website. That’s where they find a toddler photo of Nathan, reported as “missing.” And in asking about that, the teens trigger an explosion of revelations about Nathan’s past and a desperate escape that sends boy and girl on the lam, with no idea of who is after them or who they can trust.

From previous page He faces fierce opposition from his bullet-headed team manager, Art Howe (Philip Seymour Hoffman), who feels his experience is being insulted by a manager mesmerized by some half-baked Ivy League theorist.

The director is Bennett Miller, who also directed Hoffman in the title role of the radically different “Capote.”

“Moneyball” is not a traditional sports movie, and indeed

The Associated Press

Lily Collins and Taylor Lautner star in “Abduction.”

Nathan fights and struggles to outsmart the folks chasing him: Michael Nyqvist of “The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo”

and Alfred Molina. And Lautner, who came of age in the obscenely successful “Twilight” films, struggles to make his acting as effortless as his fights. As Nathan, he asks his mom, “Are you my mother?” Compare his stone-faced asking of the question with Bello’s rich, warm, alarmed way of playing the reaction: “You don’t understand, baby. It’s complicated.”

Director John Singleton is more concerned with the fights and chases than the human interplay between his two attractive young leads. Collins, daughter of singer Phil, manages moments of pathos.

“Are we going to die, Nathan?”

Lautner remains impassive.

But the script and Singleton see to it that Molina’s performance delivers a light touch, and the younger players never let us lose the sense that we’re dealing with young people who don’t know how to process all this information that’s been thrown at them. Lautner seems in over his head because that’s the way Nathan should react.

With its violence, underage drinking, reckless behavior and profanity, “Abduction” falls in the same corner of the youth market as the “Twilight” mov-

ies. Some moments and many lines (“Sometimes, I feel like a freak”) feel cribbed from that series.

And with a plot that most adults will stay a step or two ahead of, “Abduction” isn’t going to challenge anybody who has seen more than one “on the lam” picture. But Lautner as action hero doesn’t embarrass himself, not by a long shot. He may not play the tender moments like an old pro. But then, neither have Arnold, Sly or Jason Statham.

should be just as gripping for non-sports fans. It’s not a series of Big Games. When it goes to the field, it’s for well-chosen, crucial moments. Its essence is in terse, brainy dialogue by the two accomplished screenwriters Aaron Sorkin (“The Social Network”) and Steven Zaillian (“Gangs of New York”). As in “The Social Network,” abstract discussions reflect deep emotional conflicts. There are a lot of laughs in this film, but only

one or two are inspired by lines intended to be funny. Instead, our laughter comes from recognition, an awareness of irony, an appreciation of perfect zingers — and, best of all, insights into human nature.

This is really a movie about business. None of the individual players have major roles. The drama all happens in the minds of a manager and his numbers guy. They bet against tradition and in favor of numerical analy-

sis. That goes against a century of baseball history, although for all of those years fans have thumbed through their baseball almanacs and issued mindnumbing statistical theories on talk shows. What the numbers crunchers demonstrated is that a computer can assemble a team better than human instinct.

That’s melancholy, but then this is a melancholy movie. Pitt has some soul-bearing scenes with Jonah Hill in which he won-

ders what it all means, anyway.

It doesn’t matter if you have a 20-game winning streak. All that matters is that you win the last game of the season. Even the players are merely inventory, and there are dramatic moments here of players being traded or moved down to the minors. Baseball is a business. Only we fans love it as a game.

Robert De N i r o , l e f t , and Jason Statham star in “Killer Elite.”

‘Killer Elite’ builds on plot, not action ‘K

iller Elite” is inspired by a story that ingeniously finds a way to explain why two teams of ex-SAS men would want to kill each other.

That doubles the possibilities for casting, and here Jason Statham and Clive Owen, who in fact have no reason to dislike each other, are engaged in a deadly game of international murder. Robert De Niro plays a hostage taken by a sheik of Oman, who uses him to settle a score neither team has any reason to care about, so basically what’s at stake is their professionalism.

Incredibly, this story is claimed to be based on fact. Author Ranulph Fiennes’ novel is allegedly based on experiences he really had, and indeed the author of just such a book makes an appearance in the plot. I suspect the factual basis may be at a few degrees of separation from the pure action plot, but you never know, and recent movies like “The Debt” suggest spy organizations can get involved in events that seem lifted from fiction.

R OGER EBERT

“Killer Elite” 105 minutes R, for strong violence, language and some sexuality/nudity The story: De Niro plays Hunter, the mentor of Danny (Jason Statham). Both were skilled professionals. Danny has had one of those epiphanies where a man of action decides the killing must stop, and has retreated into hiding and seclusion in a remote quarter of the Australian Outback. There he lives with the beautiful Anne (Yvonne Strahovski), who strictly speaking is not particularly essential to the plot. Danny’s past

life follows him to the outback after Hunter is kidnapped by the oil sheik. The sheik wants revenge against the killers of his sons, he knows Danny is the best in the world, and he correctly calculates that only the need to save his beloved teacher would lure him back into action.

The sons, it turns out, were murdered by four SAS men. Danny’s assignment is tricky: He is to kill them — but make it look like each death is accidental, so no one will suspect the sheik. Diabolically clever. On his team are Davies (Dominic Purcell) and Meier (Aden Young). Meanwhile, Spike (Clive Owen) leads a shadowy group known as the Feather Men, whose mission is to protect ex-SAS men from retaliation. Their task is to shield the four targets from Danny and his boys. Got that?

This is actually a pretty good thriller, based more on character and plot than on action for its own sake. The need to construct killings that look like accidents adds to the interest. I find myself ask-

“Killer Elite” is rather pure in its storytelling, because at the end we might be hard-pressed to divide the characters into good and bad guys. ing, really, how likely is it that one, let alone all, of these events could be stage-managed so precisely?

Yet we learn that spy organizations are often behind “accidents.”

Jason Statham is once again a hard-boiled man carved from solid macho. Clive Owen, who by disposition and facial expression seems more like a good guy, is also sufficiently cold-blooded. Do you ever find yourself looking at a movie involving steel-eyed killers with Brillo stubble on their chins and wondering if they would possibly seem as menacing if they were clean-shaven?

De Niro is good here, in a role that perhaps offered some small inspiration. My impression is that he feels he’s paid his dues and his attention is now involved in his Tribeca activities. He still has his

power when he chooses to use it.

The movie is a first feature by Gary McKendry, born in Northern Ireland, who previously directed many commercials and the 20-minute short “Everything in This Country Must,” which was nominated for an Academy Award in the live-action short category. This is an impressive debut. He has the instincts of a storyteller, and understands that action is better when it’s structured around character and plot and doesn’t rely on simple sensation. “Killer Elite” is rather pure in its storytelling, because at the end we might be hard-pressed to divide the characters into good and bad guys.

It’s a tale that will resonate ‘D

olphin Tale” is a sweet, feel-good film about a boy who helps save a dolphin, and how the dolphin then helps save him. When we meet young Sawyer Nelson (Nathan Gamble), he has withdrawn into a shell and is a remote loner.

He builds models in his workshop, plays video games and avoids interaction with anyone — even at the going-away party for his beloved cousin. His father left the family without explanation some years ago, which may account for his isolation; his mother, Lorraine (Ashley Judd), does what she can, but feels closed out.

On the way home from his Florida grade school, Sawyer happens upon a dolphin stranded on the beach, its tail hopelessly twisted in the ropes of a lobster trap. He bonds with the creature

ROGER EBERT

“Dolphin Tale” 112 minutes PG, for some mild thematic elements until a rescue team arrives from a local animal hospital. Worried about the dolphin, Sawyer skips school to sneak into the animal hospital, where he’s befriended by young Hazel Haskett (Cozi Zuehlsdorff), whose dad, Clay (Harry Connick Jr.), runs the facility.

Sawyer at first is so shy he can barely speak, but these outgoing people encourage him to help with the dolphin in a pool, and soon he breaks out of his seclusion and grows enthusiastic about working with the animal.

This involves an attempt to preserve its ability to swim after infection requires its tail to be amputated. A prosthetics specialist at the nearby VA hospital (Morgan Freeman) designs artificial tails, finally finding one that will work.

Learning of this story, I thought, aw, come on, give me a break. But it turns out the story is not only based on fact, but the actual dolphin involved, named Winter, stars in the movie as herself. Her new tail functions admirably.

The movie will fascinate kids who love nature, just as “Free

Willy” did. And although the real whale in that film was also seen, the interaction here is more believable; Winter doesn’t do anything a real dolphin might not do. The film does get a bit carried away with the assumption that Sawyer and Winter find ways to communicate by clicks, whistles and so on.

I know dolphins communicate, I know they recognize and respond to humans, and Sawyer even cleverly finds a webpage devoted to the language of their sounds. But the anthropomorphism of Winter is carried a shade beyond believability.

There are various uplifting subplots. Sawyer’s cousin Kyle (Austin Stowell), a champion swimmer, enlists in the Army and returns with a leg injury that will affect his swimming. He is depressed until he gets involved

in Winter’s recovery. Sawyer’s mom and Hazel’s dad, both heading single-parent families, seem destined for romance, but perhaps that’s being reserved for the inevitable sequel. Hazel’s grandfather (Kris Kristofferson), who presides over the nearby houseboat where they all live, is invaluable for moments of wisdom.

The movie was directed by Charles Martin Smith, who starred in one of the best of all films about man and nature, “Never Cry Wolf” (1983). He guides his good cast with a firm hand and steers in the direction of life-affirming lessons. He has made a pleasant family film with an improbable true story at its heart.

men find themselves on opposite sides of an ingenious plot. An oil sheik from Oman wants revenge for the murders of his sons. He kidnaps Hunter (Robert De Niro) to force Danny (Jason Statham) to come out of retirement and undertake the vengeance. Spike (Clive Owen) leads a team whose job is to protect former SAS men. The two teams find themselves in a diabolical cat-and-mouse game where we’re hard-pressed to divide the characters into good and bad guys. Rating: Three stars. 105 minutes. (R) “Moneyball” — An uncommonly intelligent movie about a showdown in Major League Baseball between human instinct and abstract statistics. Based on the true story of the 2002 Oakland Athletics, it stars Brad Pitt as the team’s general manager, Jonah Hill as a nerdy Yale statistician, and Philip Seymour Hoffman as the hostile manager.

Not a traditional sports movie, but one about big business and courage in management. The dialogue is smart and witty. Spellbinding.

Rating: Four stars. (PG-13)

STILL SHOWING “Bad Teacher” — Immediately brings “Bad Santa” to mind, and suffers by the comparison.

Its bad teacher is neither bad enough nor likable enough. What’s surprising is that Elizabeth Halsey (Cameron Diaz) is so nasty and unpleasant. With supporting work

by Justin Timberlake, Jason Segel.

The one effective actor is Lucy Punch, as a rival teacher. Rating: Two stars. 92 minutes. (R) “Captain America: The First Avenger” — A real movie, not a noisy assembly of incomprehensible special effects. Of course it’s loaded with CGI, but it has texture and properly tells a full story. Chris Evans stars as Steve Rogers, a puny kid who is transformed into a

muscular superhero and battles a Nazi uber-villain known as the Red Skull (Hugo Weaving). With Hayley Atwell as a sultry WAC, Tommy Lee Jones as an Army colonel, Stanley Tucci as a scientist and Dominic Cooper as Howard Stark, who will go on to father Iron Man. Rating: Three stars. 125 minutes. (PG-13) “Contagion” — A realistic, unsensational film about a global epidemic. It’s being marketed as a thriller, but it’s more of a chiller: A frightening speculation about how a new airborne virus could enter the human species and spread relentlessly in very little time. With Gwyneth Paltrow, Matt Damon, Laurence Fishburne, Kate Winslet, Marion Cotillard, Jude Law. Rating: Three stars. 105 minutes (PG-13) “The Debt” — A legendary 1965 raid by three agents of Mossad, the Israeli intelligence agency, is celebrated by the publication of a book in 1997, unfortunately just as new facts are emerging.

A good cast, but the older and younger versions of the characters don’t match up well, and the plot loses its way. Helen Mirren, Tom Wilkinson, Ciaran Hinds, Jessica Chastain, Sam Worthington, Marton Csokas. Rating: Two and a half stars. 112 minutes. (R) “Drive” — Ryan Gosling in an extraordinary performance as a man who drives for a living — as a stunt driver in movies, and as a getaway driver for hire. He seems to have no personal life, betrays no emotions, lives simply to function.

When he begins to feel fondness for the little boy of his neighbor (Carey Mulligan), he grows involved in a $1 million heist that’s a test of his conscience and loyalties. It looks like a routine action picture, but believe me, it isn’t. Even the car chases look like the real thing.

We care about them. We’re not just looking at technology. Rating: Three and a half stars. 100 minutes. (R) “Green Lantern” — Ryan Reynolds stars as a test pilot who is chosen by the race of aliens who enforce peace in the universe to be a member of the Green Lantern Corps. He is given a magic ring and a lantern, and his task is to battle a malevolent, egomaniac fallen alien named Parallax. A fellow test pilot (Blake Lively) becomes his romantic interest, and a nerdy genius (Peter Sarsgaard) is thrown into the mix.

Lots of aggressive special effects, a silly plot, a good villain: You know, a comic book movie. I saw the 2-D version, which was crisp, bright and clear. Rating: Two and a half stars. 105 minutes. (PG-13) “The Guard” — Brendan Gleeson is wonderful as an Irish cop with shaky standards; he steals drugs from accident victims, parties with hookers and deals in graft.

But he loves his mother. Partnered against his will on a big drug case with an FBI agent (Don Cheadle), he rises to the occasion, but not before much dialogue of sly wit.

A rich human comedy with a gripping ending and much humor along the way. Rating: Three and a half stars. 95 minutes. (R)

Presenting itself as the story of how African-American maids in the South viewed their employers during Jim Crow days, it is equally the story of how they empowered a young white woman to write a best-seller about them. At the end, the story has punished the racist and redeemed those who have changed, but it’s still Jackson, Miss.

Still, this is a good film, involving and wonderfully acted. I was drawn to the characters and moved. Wonderful performances by Viola Davis, Emma Stone, Octavia Spencer, Bryce Dallas Howard and Jessica Chastain. Rating: Three stars. 146 minutes. (PG-13) “I Don’t Know How She Does It” — “I Don’t Know How She Does It” is an old-fashioned spin on the manic pace of motherhood for today’s working woman. With high unemployment and those of us still working too scared to say “No” to the boss, “juggling” has become not just the norm, but positively blase over 20 years after “Parenthood” and “Baby Boom.”

Sarah Jessica Parker gamely plays the slapstick, the little wardrobe disasters that anybody with kids will recognize. But she’s swimming against a riptide of a script, a movie that no endless voiceover, no cute testimonial and no number of freeze frames — where she stops the action to address the camera

NEW DVD & B L U - R AY RELEASES T he following movies were released the week of Sept. 20.

“Bridesmaids” — Kristen Wiig’s new comedy is about a group of women friends who are as cheerfully vulgar as the guys in “The Hangover.”

Wiig plays Annie, whose Milwaukee bakery shop has just gone bust, and whose longtime friend Lillian (Maya Rudolph) is getting married.

Naturally, she expects to be maid of honor, but begins to fear a rival in Helen (Rose Byrne), the rich and overconfident trophy wife of the

groom’s boss. Gifted with getting in her own way, she creates havoc during a bachelorette trip to Vegas; the level of raunch approaches “The Hangover,” and is sometimes sort of brilliant.

exclamation point on the success story that began with “The Little Mermaid” and continued with “Beauty and the Beast.” That cell-animated (with some digital sequences) classic earns a nice 3-D dressing up in “The Ling King 3-D.” It still looks lovely, with beautifully drawn lions and hyenas — plus a warthog, a meerkat, a mandrill and a hornbill, and

assorted other denizens of the African savannah. The wildebeest stampede is almost as novel and breathtaking as it was when the film was new. Rating: Three and a half stars. 89 minutes. (G)

visits Paris with his fiancee (Rachel McAdams), and finds himself seduced by dreams of living there in the 1920s when Hemingway and Fitzgerald hung out at Gertrude Stein’s fabled salon.

With charm and whimsy, Allen tickles the fantasies of everyone who ever loved an American lit class. With Kathy Bates, Adrien Brody, French first lady Carla Bruni, Marion Cotillard and Michael Sheen. Rating: Three and a half stars. 94 minutes. (PG-13) “Rise of the Planet of the Apes” — James Franco stars as a scientist who tests an anti-Alzheimer’s drug on chimpanzees and finds it dramatically increases their intelligence. After the experiment is called off, he brings a baby chimp home, and Caesar (a motion-capture performance by Andy Serkis) flourishes until he rebels after being sent to an unkind primate shelter. With Freida Pinto as a beautiful primatologist, John Lithgow as an Alzheimer’s victim.

The movie has its pleasures, although the chimps seem smarter than the humans. Rating: Three stars. 105 minutes. (PG-13) “Spy Kids 4: All the Time in the World” — Give me back my Carla Gugino.

That’s what I couldn’t help thinking every time Jessica Alba — lovely to look at, utterly ordinary to watch — appeared on screen in “Spy Kids 4: All the Time in the World.”

movies From previous page The fall-off in sexiness, soulfulness and wittiness from Gugino and Antonio Banderas, the parents in the first three “Spy Kids” films, to Alba and Joel McHale is whiplash steep. And that’s just one of the ways this fourth “Spy Kids” installment, written and directed, as always, by Robert Rodriguez, comes up short. Visually dreary (don’t bother paying the 3-D premium), lazily yet confusingly plotted, dominated by jokes involving vomit and an endlessly flatulent baby, “All the Time in the World” feels more like straight-toDVD filler than a chapter in one of the last decade’s most entertaining and sophisticated family-film franchises.

by Sam Peckinpah. Change the location from England to Mississippi, change a mathematician into a screenwriter, keep the bear trap and the cat found strangled, and it is every bit as violent. Visceral, disturbing and very well made. James Marsden moves with his wife Kate Bosworth to her hometown, and Alexander Skarsgard and James Woods are the scariest of the hostile locals. Rating: Three stars. 110 minutes. (R) “Warrior” — An unusually dramatic fight picture, in which two long-estranged brothers meet in a mixed martial arts title fight. Joel Edgerton is a high school teacher, Tom Hardy is a returning Marine, and Nick Nolte is their father, a recovering alcoholic. This is a rare fight movie in which we don’t want to see either fighter lose. Rating: Three stars. 139 minutes. (PG-13)

On the flip side: More on the Flagline 50K • Turn the page over for more information on the trailrunning national championship, including maps of the courses, runners to watch and a spectator’s guide

The Flagline 50K serves as the 2011 USA Track & Field trail-running national championship for the 50-kilometer distance.

But for most of the more than 100 runners expected to compete in Saturday’s race, the championship is not the primary reason for entering.

Most of these endurance athletes relish the chance to race on a course as unique as the Flagline 50K, which features singletrack trail winding through high alpine forest and meadows near Mount Bachelor.

“I think a small part (of the motivation for runners racing in the Flagline 50K) is the national championship for USATF, but a big part of it is the course is pretty cool for a 50K,” said event organizer Dave Thomason. “It’s pretty scenic. You run high and get above the tree line, and you can’t do that too often in Oregon.”

In its second year, the Flagline 50K (31 miles) starts at Dutchman Flat Sno-park at 8 a.m. Saturday and takes runners on dirt roads and singletrack through old-growth pine and lodgepole forests. Along the grueling course, which includes 4,200 feet of elevation gain, runners will be treated to views of the partially snow-capped Three Sisters, Broken Top and Mount Bachelor.

The race finishes at the Mt. Bachelor Nordic Center.

This year, the Flagline 50K will serve as the signature event of the Flagline Trail Fest. Other races in the Trail Fest Saturday include the Bachelor Butte Trail Half (marathon), the Cinder Cone Trail 5K and the Kids Trail Fox 1,500 meters.

Bend’s Max King, one of the favorites to win the 50K race, said he figures to finish in 3½ to four hours.

Participants are traveling from as far away as North Carolina and Alaska to take part in this year’s Flagline 50K, which will serve as the USA Track & Field 50K Trail Championships. Many are coming from around the state, and some of the top contenders live right here in Central Oregon. Here are a few runners worth keeping an eye on:

King was second in the Flagline 50K a year ago.

After Saturday’s race, King will fly to Utah, where on Sunday he will try to win his fourth consecutive XTERRA Trail Run National Championship.

Long-distance trail-running races are not necessarily easy to spectate, but the 50K does present a few options.

One of the best comes relatively early in the 31-mile race.

“The easiest place (from which to watch) is at Swampy (Lakes Sno-park), when they come through about mile 8,” race director Dave Thomason says. “There’s a parking lot there, and you don’t have to drive off-road or anything. …

That’s by far the easiest.”

Other spectating spots with easy access are at Dutchman Flat and at the finish, which will be located at the Mt. Bachelor ski area’s Nordic Center.

Die-hards with four-wheeldrive vehicles could hop onto Forest Service Road 370, which intersects with Century Drive near Todd Lake. Participants will run along a couple stretches of that road during the second half of the race.

Cheerleaders and supporters should be mindful that during the race, area trails and roads will be completely open to the public, including mountain bikers, hunters, and runners who are not racing.

“We just want to make sure if (spectators) do go up there that they’re not only yielding to the runners, but to other cars and things like that,” Thomason says.

Thomason notes that only a couple of minor adjustments have been made to the 2010 course for this year’s race.

The start will be located at the trail out of Dutchman Sno-park rather than on Century Drive.

And as runners approach the finish, they will hit the nordic skiing training oval at Mt. Bachelor and approach the finish line at the Nordic Center on dirt rather than from the paved road.

“I just didn’t like that road finish very much,” Thomason said. “It won’t really change the distance.”

• Stephanie Howe, of Bend: With reigning champion Kami Semick having recently moved to Hong Kong, the women’s race is up for grabs. Though cross-country skiing is Howe’s primary sport, she is also a solid runner. The 2010 Flagline 50K was her first ultramarathon race, and she placed second to Semick. In February, Howe, 28, won the 53-kilometer Gatineau Loppet classic nordic ski race in Canada.

Flagline Continued from D1 “The main thing I like is the course,” King said of the race. “Beautiful high meadows and pine forest. … It’s one of the nicest 50K courses I’ve ever been on. The fact that we are up there all the time (for training runs) is kind of cool.”

Last year during the inaugural Flagline 50K, several top runners — including King — were led off course by a misinformed race volunteer just three miles from the finish. After some sorting out among the runners, Erik Skaggs, of Ashland, was declared the winner with a time of 4 hours, 7 minutes, 46 seconds. King finished second, two seconds behind.

“You never know what’s going to happen,” King said this week. “Hopefully everybody will learn the course and send us down the right way. Last year, I

knew the course, but when you’re 26 miles into the course, you’re not thinking quite as much.”

“We had it marked last year,” Thomason said.

“I’m going to make that (mix-up) not happen.

We’re going to use lots and lots of ribbon (to mark the course).”

Thomason said the most challenging part of the race for runners will be the climb between miles 20 and 23, when they hit the Metolius-Windigo Trail out of the Happy Valley area.

“It’s really steep,” Thomason said. “That will be the crux. That’s where the most complaints come from.”

Thomason explained that the 50K distance, while exceptionally long for typical runners, is actually the shortest distance for “ultrarunners.”

This time of year, at the end of the running season, Thomason noted, more ultrarunners are tackling even longer races, in the 50- to 100-mile distance.

“Ultras are getting more and more popular, but

50K is an in-between distance,” Thomason explained. “It’s a good introduction to ultras for a lot of people.”

King, 31, said he has been running 130 to 140 miles per week — almost 20 miles per day. On Sept. 11, he won the World Mountain Running Championships (12.7K) in Albania.

King said he plans to compete at the 2012 U.S. Marathon Olympic Trials in Houston in January.

The top three runners there qualify for the Olympics in London. King is currently ranked 20th among U.S. men’s marathoners.

“I’ve got an outside chance (to make the Olympics),” King said. “It’s not a great chance.”

King competed in the 2008 U.S. Track and Field Olympic Trials in Eugene to attempt to make the Olympic team in the 3,000-meter steeplechase.

He has since changed his focus to much longer distances.

“You get older and you lose speed and gain en-

• Erik Skaggs, of Ashland: Skaggs, 29 and an accomplished ultrarunner, won the inaugural Flagline 50K in 2010 under interesting circumstances. At about three miles from the finish, the lead runners were inadvertently directed off course, and King approached the finish line first. When the rest of the front-runners reached King, the group decided to cross the line in the order of their place when they got off track, which meant that Skaggs got the win and the national title. Race director Dave Thomason said that, as of earlier this week, he had heard that Skaggs would be running here Saturday but that he had not yet registered.

• Jeff Browning, of Bend: Browning, 40, likes long runs. Extremely long runs. He has completed 12 100-mile races, most recently placing fifth in Colorado’s Leadville Trail 100 in August, and he will be a contender to take the masters title (age 40 and older) in the Flagline 50K. Browning set the course record at the Cascade Crest 100 Mile Endurance Run in Easton, Wash., in 2010.

• Pam Smith, of Salem: Smith, 37, has finished first among women in four 50K races staged in Oregon during the past year. In June, she was the 10thplace woman at the Western States 100 (miles) in Squaw Valley, Calif., crossing the line in 20 hours, 40 minutes, 48 seconds.

durance,” King said.

Before turning his attention to the trials in Houston, though, King is focused on this weekend — of which Saturday’s race is only the beginning.

After the Flagline 50K, he will take a flight to Salt Lake City to race in the XTERRA Trail Run National Championship in Ogden, Utah. King won that 13-mile race the past three years when it was staged in Bend.

“It should be pretty busy,” King said of this weekend. “I think it should be fun though.”

Last year’s women’s winner of the Flagline 50K, Kami Semick, recently moved from Bend to Hong Kong and will not be racing here Saturday.

Thomason said that leaves another Bend runner, Stephanie Howe, as the likely favorite to win the women’s competition.
