OLCC staff startled by director’s possible expulsion

CYCLING SQUABBLE

6-foot lanes for Skyliners The Bulletin

By Lauren Dake The Bulletin

SALEM — News that the head of the Oregon Liquor Control Commission could lose his job surprised his staff, a spokeswoman said Monday.

“Our executive team was not aware this was coming,” said Christie Scott, with the OLCC. A member from the governor’s staff recently told the state agency’s executive director, Steve Pharo, that the governor’s office was “looking for a change,” according to Scott.

Pharo declined to comment.

Scott confirmed that Pharo was told his job could be in jeopardy. Pharo doesn’t think he did anything to warrant losing his post, Scott said.

Pharo has served as the agency’s director since 2006 and has worked for the OLCC since 1994.

In the last two years, the agency has infused the state’s general fund, along with county and city budgets, with more than $350 million, according to Scott.

“We had record amounts of revenue sent back to the general fund,” Scott said.

Six-foot bicycle lanes will be added to Skyliners Road during a construction project scheduled to begin next spring.

A cyclist had petitioned for wider lanes, but county commissioners on Monday rejected 8-foot lanes as unnecessary.

Bicyclists will get dedicated lanes on Skyliners Road when Deschutes County begins a major overhaul of the popular route next year, but county commissioners said Monday they won’t be the 8-foot lanes one man campaigned for over the last year.

Tad Hodgert, a cyclist who lives on Skyliners Road, has spoken in favor of wider lanes, delivering more than 70 signatures on a petition for 8-foot lanes to the county in January.

Hodgert wrote in a letter to the county that 8-foot

bike lanes would make Skyliners Road a “national caliber bike course.”

“The several national level events held on Skyliners Road these past years bring much needed dollars into the local economy,” Hodgert wrote.

“Build it right, many more will come.”

8-foot lanes rejected as expensive, unsafe However, road officials from county, state and federal agencies found that 8foot lanes are unnecessary.

LOS ANGELES — Lions Gate Entertainment’s $155 million opening-weekend haul for “The Hunger Games” proved female action heroes can attract big audiences, and may inspire Hollywood to make more films with female leads.

The movie, made for about $80 million, generated the third-biggest opening weekend ever, researcher Box Office Mojo said. That puts it ahead of such venerable fanboy material as “Spider-Man 3,” which went on to gross $336.5 million in the United States and Canada, both “Iron Man” pictures and every other film but “The Dark Knight” and the last “Harry Potter.”

“The Hunger Games,” which set a record as the biggest opening ever for a nonsequel, illustrates how Hollywood under-appreciates audiences’ acceptance of female action heroes, according to Phil Contrino, editor of researcher Boxoffice.com.

“People were hungry for something like this,” Contrino said in an interview.

Michael Odom, a project manager for the Federal Highway Administration, cited Oregon’s bicycle and pedestrian plan, which states that “anything larger than six feet creates other safety risks to cyclists by encouraging parking in the bike lane.”

The Federal Highway Administration will pay for the $9 million reconstruction of Skyliners Road, but it will not pay for 8foot bike lanes instead of the planned 6-foot lanes, Odom wrote in a March 14 letter to Deschutes County.

The options being discussed include imposing state requirements that people get insurance, penalties for people who delay and automatic coverage enrollment.

While it is unclear which way the court will rule, state officials and insurance executives say they have no choice but to prepare their options before the mandate goes into effect in 2014.

“We’re always working on Plan B — always,” said Sen. Karen Keiser, a state lawmaker in Washington state who leads a group tackling the issue.

“It will be up to state legislators, that is where the power will move,” said Keiser, a Democrat.

“We have a lot of options at the state level.”

Some Wall Street analysts predict that if the federal mandate is struck down and the rest of the law is upheld, the industry will quickly shift its focus to alternatives, particularly those that enable the states to bolster enrollment, so enough healthy people sign up and premiums do not skyrocket.

COMMENTARY

The U.S. election cycle’s 5 foreign policy problems

By Stephen M. Walt Foreign Policy

Are you tired of the 2012 presidential election? Bored by the endless series of gossipy articles and blogs dissecting every bump and turn? Me too.

The problem is that the United States has the unappealing combination of a relatively short presidential term and an unusually long election process. We elect the president every four years, and we devote a year to the primary process. It’s actually more like two years, if you count the exploratory phase of campaigning and fundraising. So in a sense the U.S. spends at least a quarter of each presidential term discussing and debating who the next president will be. I can’t think of any other country that spends a year or more actually running the campaign.

Our stupefyingly long election process is good for journalists, I guess, and one could argue that it helps us weed out unqualified candidates. But overall, the combination of a short term and a long campaign

creates all sorts of potential difficulties, including a number of foreign policy problems. To wit: It is invariably a distraction, with oodles of media time being consumed by mostly trivial discussions of who’s up, who’s down, who’s just made a gaffe, etc., instead of having a serious discussion of real policy issues.

The campaign invariably consumes a lot of the incumbent president’s time, which is probably the single scarcest commodity in politics. President Barack Obama will spend a good chunk of the next eight months raising money and giving speeches that are less about fixing the nation’s problems than about trying to get re-elected. I don’t blame him for that; I just wish he only had to do it for a few weeks. And of course some issues (e.g., trade policy) have to go on the back burner during an election year.

The longer the election campaign is, the more it costs to run and greater the influence moneyed interests will

have. That means both incumbents and rivals must pander to special interest groups, including groups with foreign policy agendas.

A long electoral cycle also lengthens the period in which foreign actors can try to use our internal preoccupations to advance their own ends. Foreign adversaries may take advantage of a distracted America to shift the status quo in subtle or not-so-subtle ways, knowing that the last thing an incumbent president really wants is a major crisis on the eve of an election.

When you consider that a new administration has to make some 3,000 appointments, and that this transition process itself takes months if not years, then the period when the United States can conduct a fully staffed, energetic and more-or-less coherent foreign policy is no more than a year or two in each administration.

One could even argue that this has larger systemic consequences, because it means the

4.

5.

world’s most powerful country spends at least as much time picking its leaders and getting advisers appointed as it does allowing those leaders to actually govern. This situation makes it harder to implement and sustain policies that take a long time to bear fruit.

This system might have worked well in the 19th century, when the United States was largely isolated, but it’s hardly ideal for the self-designated “leader of the free world.”

Sad to say, I don’t have a remedy for this problem. If I could, I’d have a national primary election day and I’d institute various measures to raise voter turnout and prevent both parties from being captured by narrow extremists.

But I don’t know how you could conjure up the support for such a far-reaching change.

The bottom line is that the problems are going to get worse instead of better over time.

FOCUS: ENVIRONMENT

In Paraguay, a forest under siege

By Simon Romero New York Times News Service

FILADELFIA, Paraguay — The Chaco thorn forest, a domain with 120-degree temperatures so forbidding that Paraguayans call it their “green hell,” covers an expanse about the size of Poland. Huntergatherers still live in its vast mazes of quebracho trees.

But while the Chaco forest has remained hostile to most human endeavors for centuries, and jaguars, maned wolves and swarms of biting insects still inhabit its thickets, the region’s defiance may finally be coming to an end.

Huge tracts of the Chaco are being razed in a scramble into one of South America’s most remote corners by cattle ranchers from Brazil, Paraguay’s giant neighbor, and Germanspeaking Mennonites, descendants of colonists who arrived here nearly a century ago and work as farmers and ranchers.

So much land is being bulldozed and so many trees are being burned that the sky sometimes turns “twilight gray” at daytime, said Lucas Bessire, an American anthropologist who works here. “One wakes with the taste of ashes and a thin film of white on the tongue,” he said.

At least 1.2 million acres of the Chaco have been deforested in the last two years, according to satellite analyses

by Guyra, an environmental group in Asuncion, the capital. Ranchers making way for their vast herds of cattle have cleared roughly 10 percent of the Chaco forest in the last five years, Guyra said. That is reflected in surging beef exports.

“Paraguay already has the sad distinction of being a deforestation champion,” said Jose Luis Casaccia, a prosecutor and former environment minister, referring to the large clearing in recent decades of Atlantic forests in eastern Paraguay for soybean farms; little more than 10 percent of the original forests remain.

“If we continue with this insanity,” Casaccia said, “nearly all of the Chaco’s forests could be destroyed within 30 years.”

Mennonites prosper The rush is already transforming small Mennonite settlements on the Chaco frontier into boomtowns. The Mennonites, whose Protestant Anabaptist faith coalesced in Europe in the 16th century, founded settlements here in the 1920s. Towns with names like Neuland, Friedensfeld and Neu-Halbstadt dot the map.

Buoyed by their newfound prosperity, the Mennonite communities here differ from those in other parts of Latin America, like the settlements in eastern Bolivia where many Mennonites still drive horse-

drawn buggies and wear traditional clothing.

In Filadelfia, Mennonite teenagers barrel down roads outside town in new Nissan pickup trucks. Banks advertise loans for cattle traders.

Gas stations sell chewing tobacco and beers like Coors Light. An annual rodeo lures visitors from across Paraguay.

Patrick Friesen, communications manager for a Mennonite cooperative in Filadelfia, said property prices had surged fivefold in recent years.

“A plot of land in town costs more than in downtown Asuncion,” said Friesen, attributing the boom partly to surging global demand for beef.

“Eighty-five percent of our beef is exported, to places including South Africa, Russia and Gabon,” he said. Citing concerns in some countries over foot-and-mouth disease, which Paraguay detected in its cattle herd in 2011, he continued, “We are currently focused on some of the less-demanding markets.”

Paraguay’s Chaco forest lies in the Gran Chaco plain, spread across several nations.

Scientists fear that the expansion of cattle ranching in the central Chaco in Paraguay could wipe out what is a beguiling frontier for the discovery of new species. The Chaco is still relatively unexplored.

The largest living species of peccary, piglike mammals, was revealed to science in the Chaco in the 1970s. In parts of the forest, biologists have recently glimpsed guanacos, a camelid similar to the llama.

More alarming, the land rush is also intensifying the upheaval among the Chaco’s indigenous peoples, who number in the thousands and have been grappling for decades with forays by foreign missionaries, subjugation to the Mennonites and infighting among different tribes.

One group of huntergatherers, the Ayoreo, is under particular stress from the

changes. In 2004, 17 Ayoreo speakers, from a subgroup who call themselves the Totobiegosode, or “people from the place where the collared peccaries ate our gardens,” made contact with outsiders for the first time.

In Chaidi, a village near Filadelfia, they described being hounded for years by bulldozers encroaching on their lands.

The Ayoreo word for bulldozer, “eapajocacade,” means “attackers of the world.”

“They were destroying our forests, generating problems for us,” one Totobiegosode man, Esoi Chiquenoi, who believed he was in his 40s, said through an interpreter. As a result, he and others in his group, who in photographs taken in 2004 were wearing loincloths, abruptly abandoned their way of life.

Groups deny blame As the Mennonite communities come under scrutiny for the deforestation, they acknowledge that big swaths of the forest around them are being removed. But they deny that they are to blame, contending that they abide by Paraguayan law, which requires landowners to keep a quarter of Chaco properties forested.

“What the Brazilians do, acquiring land with their strong currency and deep pockets, is something else,” said Franklin Klassen, a member of the city council in Loma Plata, a Mennonite town.

Across Paraguay, Brazil’s economic sway is impossible to ignore, symbolized by an estimated 300,000 Brasiguayos, as the relatively prosperous Brazilian immigrants and their descendants are called, who have played a role in expanding industrial agriculture and ranching in Paraguay.

Nelson Cintra, a rancher from the Brazilian state of Mato Grosso do Sul, said he and his brother were among the first Brazilians to put down stakes in the Chaco, acquir-

ing about 86,000 acres in Alto Paraguay, near the Brazilian border, in 1997.

“Environmentalists complain about deforestation, but the world has billions of mouths to feed,” said Cintra, who is also mayor of Porto Murtinho, a Brazilian border town. “There are now 1 million heads of cattle in Alto Paraguay, whereas 15 years ago there were just 50,000,” he said.

On Filadelfia’s outskirts, the transformation of the Chaco from a vast, untamed wilderness into a ranching bastion already seems irreversible.

About 80 Ayoreo live in squalor in one spot on the side of the highway, sleeping under plastic bags draped from trees.

Sometimes ranchers in pickups stop to hire the Ayoreo men as laborers, paying them about $10 a day. But such work is sporadic. On most days, the Ayoreo lean on a fence, sipping a tea made from yerba mate leaves, watching trucks barrel past carrying cattle that grazed where peccaries once roamed.

“We’ll never live in the forest again,” said Arturo Chiquenoi, 28, an Ayoreo man who works occasionally as a ranch hand.

“That life is finished.”

U.S., Australia set to bolster military ties The United States and Australia are planning a major expansion of military ties, including possible drone flights from a coral atoll in the Indian Ocean and increased U.S. naval access to Australian ports, as the Pentagon looks to shift its forces closer to Southeast Asia, officials from both countries said.

The moves, which are under discussion but have drawn strong interest from both sides, would come on top of an agreement announced by President Obama and Prime Minister Julia Gillard in November to deploy up to 2,500 U.S. Marines to Darwin, on Australia’s northern coast.

The talks are the latest indicator of how the Obama administration is rapidly turning its strategic attention to Asia as it winds down a costly decade of war in Afghanistan and Iraq. The U.S. government is finalizing a deal to station four warships in Singapore and has opened negotiations with the Philippines about boosting its military presence there.

Turkey, Norway shut embassies in Syria BEIRUT — Turkey and Norway closed their embassies in Syria on Monday and ordered all diplomatic staff withdrawn in response to the government’s repression of the year-old uprising, as opposition activists reported a new spasm of shelling in Homs, the rebellious city that Syrian security forces had proclaimed purged of insurgents just a few weeks ago.

The developments came as Syrian state media suggested for the first time that parliamentary elections set for May 7 would be delayed, as the government slapped new international travel restrictions on all Syrian men of conscription age, and as a member of a U.N. commission investigating rights abuses said she had resigned because of the government’s refusal to allow the panel access inside the country.

Strauss-Kahn faces sex investigation PARIS — Dominique Strauss-Kahn, former head of the International Monetary Fund and once a leading candidate to become president of France, learned Monday that he would face a formal investigation on allegations that he helped procure prostitutes for sex parties in Washington, Paris and elsewhere.

The preliminary charges, brought in the northern French city of Lille, marked another sordid chapter in the swift downfall of the 63-yearold economist and Socialist Party politician. Until last May he had been considered the main likely candidate — and a probable winner — against President Nicolas Sarkozy in France’s two-round presidential election, scheduled for April 23 and May 6.

Tibetan in New Delhi sets himself on fire NEW DELHI — A Tibetan exile set himself on fire here Monday afternoon at a protest before a visit by the Chinese president, Hu Jintao.

The exile, identified as Jampa Yeshi, 26, was hospitalized with what witnesses described as severe burns. In the past year, about 30 Tibetans have set themselves on fire to protest Chinese rule in Tibetan areas; 22 of them have died. The selfimmolation Monday was the second in the last few months in India, home to about 120,000 Tibetans, including their spiritual leader, the Dalai Lama.

Spain’s ruling party fails to win majority MADRID — The governing Popular Party of Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy suffered disappointment Sunday when it failed to win an absolute majority in elections in Andalusia, Spain’s most populous region.

The Popular Party won 50 of the 109 seats in the regional assembly of Andalusia, against 47 seats for the Socialist Party, according to official results.

Poll: American support for Afghan war fading New York Times News Service WASHINGTON — After a series of violent episodes and setbacks, support for the war in Afghanistan has dropped sharply among both Republicans and Democrats, according to the latest New York Times/ CBS News poll.

The survey found that more than two-thirds of those polled — 69 percent — thought that the United States should not be at war in Afghanistan. Just four months ago, 53 percent said that Americans should no longer be fighting in the conflict, more than a decade old.

The increased disillusionment was even more pronounced when respondents were asked their impressions of how the war was going. The poll found that 68 percent thought the fighting was going “somewhat badly” or “very badly,” compared with 42 percent who had those impressions in November.

The latest poll was conducted by telephone from Wednesday to Sunday with 986 adults nationwide. It has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 3 percentage points.

The Times/CBS News poll was consistent with other surveys this month that showed a drop in support for the war.

Negative impressions of the war have grown among Republicans as well as Democrats, according to the Times/CBS News poll. Among Republicans, 60 percent said the war was going somewhat or very badly, compared with 40 percent in November.

Among Democrats, 68 percent said the war was go-

Staff sergeant’s wife didn’t see PTSD behavior SEATTLE — In her first media interview, Karilyn Bales — wife of the Army staff sergeant accused of murdering 17 Afghan civilians — says it’s hard for her to believe her husband could have committed the killings. She also says she didn’t notice behavior indicating that he could be suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder.

“This is not him. It’s not him,” she told NBC’s “Today” show in an interview near her home in Washington state. She described the 38-year-old soldier as a man who loved children and who wanted to avoid further combat deployments in order to spend more time with his own two kids.

“He’s like a big kid himself,” she said.

Bales, a veteran of three deployments to Iraq, was on his fourth assignment, this time in Afghanistan, when the shootings occurred during the pre-dawn hours of March 11

near a small Army outpost in Kandahar province.

Five of the dead were women; nine were children.

Bales said her husband had not appeared to be suffering ill effects from his previous deployments, and had not even mentioned a head injury he suffered in Iraq until he returned.

“Not until he came back and said that he, you know, had been blown up. He shielded me from a lot of what he went through.

He’s a very tough guy,” she said.

“He kept a lot from me.”

She said Bales never seemed to exhibit classic symptoms of PTSD, an affliction that haunts many veterans of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

“I don’t know a lot about the symptoms of PTSD, so I wouldn’t know,” she said.

“He doesn’t have nightmares, you know, things like that. No dreams.”

ing somewhat or very badly, compared with 38 percent in November.

But the poll found that Republicans were more likely to want troops to stay in Afghan-

them before being shot to death, said Ghulam Farooq Parwani, deputy commander of the 215th Afghan National Army Corps.

Also, the international military command in Afghanistan reported that one of its soldiers had been shot to death by an “alleged member of the Afghan local police” as members of the International Security Assistance Force approached a police checkpoint.

New limit pending on emissions New York Times News Service After months of delay, the Obama administration is about to unveil the first federal standards to explicitly limit greenhouse-gas emissions from new electric power plants — one of the chief sources of carbon dioxide emissions linked to climate change.

According to people briefed by the Environmental Protection Agency, all existing plants — including the 300 or so coal-fired power plants that now release the highest level of these emissions and yet-tobe-built plants that have already received EPA permits — will be grandfathered in

at current levels, meaning they are exempt from the new rule.

Under the new rule, expected to be announced this week, new power plants will have to emit no more than 1,000 tons of carbon dioxide per megawatthour of energy produced. That standard permits the level of emissions achieved by natural gas-fired plants of the type generally built in the last few years, but would be too strict for almost all coal-fired power plants if they were not exempted.

istan for as long as it would take to stabilize the situation: 3 in 10 said the United States should stay, compared with 2 in 10 independents and 1 in 10 Democrats.

Obama urges China to restrain N. Korea New York Times News Service SEOUL, South Korea — President Barack Obama took North Korea’s untested new leader, Kim Jong Un, to task Monday, demanding that China curb his recent behavior and declaring that South Korea’s success will inevitably triumph over the failure and isolation of the North.

In a 90-minute meeting with China’s president, Hu Jintao, before a nuclear security summit here, Obama pressed the Chinese leader to use his influence over North Korea to stop it from proceeding with a satellite launching next month, a White House official said.

Obama was clearly stung by the announcement of the impending satellite launching, which the United States said will be a breach of North Korea’s international obligations, and which came only 17 days after the Obama administration had tentatively agreed to send desperately needed food aid to the country.

But the president, the senior official said, was also latching on to the change in

leadership in Pyongyang to try to break what Obama called a long cycle of provocations that were rewarded by countries eager to ease tensions with an erratic nuclear state.

“We need to have a serious

conversation with the North Koreans where they understand that we’re going to do things differently in the future,” said the senior official, the deputy national security adviser, Benjamin Rhodes.

Health

LANDMARK CASE

Continued from A1 Although unlikely, some states could authorize their own mandates. States could also make it difficult for people to enroll only when they needed care by setting limited periods when individuals could sign up or by imposing penalties on those who waited, although that could require a change to the federal law.

The federal health care bill known as the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act was signed into law by President Barack Obama in 2010 after a contentious legislative battle. It has an array of provisions — many of them controversial — that are intended to expand care and lower costs.

Central to the law, proponents say, is the mandate. Coupled with generous subsidies for some moderate-income individuals and the creation of new state insurance exchanges, it is viewed as essential to the ability of insurers to offer coverage to everyone, regardless of their health, and avoid charging higher premiums to people who are sick. Without the mandate, they say, too few young and healthy people will enroll, driving up the cost of insurance drastically for those who do and potentially causing the market to collapse.

“If you knock off the third leg, does the stool fall down?” asked Chris Jennings, a Democratic policy analyst in Washington. “It’s certainly a huge wobble. It’s very risky.”

Justices signal intent to rule as health care debate begins

Movies Continued from A1 “Now everyone will be looking for the next ‘Hunger Games’ instead of every maledriven, Will Smith action film,” he said, referring to the star of “Independence Day” and “Men in Black.”

“The Hunger Games” may go on to capture $400 million domestically, according to Contrino.

The movie, which stars 21year-old Jennifer Lawrence as an arrow-slinging killing machine, sold $59 million of tickets outside the U.S. and Canada, and was first in almost all of its 67 markets, Vancouver-based Lions Gate said Sunday.

The film is based on the 2008 young-adult novel with 11 million copies in print, according to its publisher, Scholastic Corp.

The story takes place in a post-apocalyptic North America and revolves around children who are forced to fight to the death on live television for the benefit of a wealthy ruling class.

In marketing the movie, Lions Gate sought to draw in a broad audience, according to David Spitz, executive vice president of distribution for Lions Gate.

“This is a huge number,” Spitz said. “You don’t get to $155 million without solid support from everybody.”

The company didn’t market the film as a romance, even though two male characters

Continued from A1 The agency recently made some changes, including approving a pilot program easing restrictions on grocery stores to allow them to sell hard liquor.

During the 2011 legislative session, some lawmakers criticized Pharo for working with a lobbyist to stop a bill that could have helped Grocery Outlet but would have cut into beer and wine distributors’ bottom line.

That lobbyist, Paul Romain, said Pharo is being blasted because some lawmakers simply “don’t like the agency.”

“Unfortunately, the agency is in a kind of political quagmire here,” Romain said. “It’s doing what society wants, but doesn’t want. It’s regulating alcohol but selling alcohol.”

Privatization discussed After the successful effort to privatize liquor sales in Washington, discussion about doing the same in Oregon have been renewed. Overall, Rep. Jason Conger, R-Bend, said there is talk that the agency’s focus should be more narrow.

“Really, the question comes down to whether it’s appropriate for the state to be in the liquor business — and in my mind, probably not,” he said.

“The state should be a regula-

Some members of the public had waited days for one of the 120 available seats, and the court’s public information office said it crammed in the maximum 117 reporters that the courtroom holds.

The matter has thrust the Supreme Court into an unusually hot spotlight; the six hours of argument the court has scheduled is the most time it has spent on an issue in nearly 45 years.

The Anti-Injunction Act seemed to offer the justices a way out of making a constitutional decision about the health-care law in a presidential election year. A panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit had applied the act, which states that “no suit for the purpose of restraining the assessment or collection of any tax shall be maintained in any court by any person.”

It was designed to ensure that the tax collection necessary to keep the government running was not disrupted by lawsuits.

But neither the Obama administration nor the challengers — Republican officials in 26 states and the private National Federation of Independent Businesses — advocated that the justices take such a path.

cations, such as heart disease, strokes, blindness, amputations and kidney failure.

In the United States, the number of diabetes cases has tripled in the past 30 years to more than 20 million, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Most of the cases are Type 2.

Researchers said the operations used in the studies help control diabetes not just because they make people lose weight — a known treatment for the disease — but because the changes in anatomy alter the levels of gut hormones that

affect the metabolism of sugars and fats.

One of the studies, conducted at the Catholic University in Rome, compared two types of surgery with usual medical treatment. After two years, the surgical groups had complete remission rates of 75 percent and 95 percent; there were no remissions in patients who received medical treatment.

The second study, at the Cleveland Clinic, compared two types of surgery with an intensive medical regimen. The remission rates one year after surgery were lower than in the

Italian study — 42 percent and 37 percent — at least in part because the U.S. study used a stricter definition of remission.

Doctors had been noticing for years that weight-loss operations, also called bariatric surgery, could sometimes get rid of Type 2 diabetes. But they had no hard data.

Experts say better treatments are desperately needed for the disease.

“Type 2 diabetes is one of the fastest growing epidemics in human history,” according to an editorial published with the two studies.

we could find the money to make this happen, if 8-foot bike lanes were the silver bullet,” Baney said. “I think we’re at a want versus a need. ... In my view, the facts just don’t support going beyond the 6-foot.”

The commissioners plan to send a letter to Hodgert thanking him for his input and informing him of their decision.

County staff hope to begin road construction next spring.

Bike lanes will be 5 feet wide in the subdivision near the end of Skyliners Road, in order to slow traffic and minimize the need to purchase rights-of-

way from residents to allow for the widening.

County Engineer George Kolb predicted that despite the commissioners’ decision, they will continue to hear from supporters of wider bike lanes.

“I’m sure it’s not going to go away,” Kolb said.

Demonstrators against the health care law (above) and supporters of the law, including Dr. Sonia Nagda (right), gathered outside the Supreme Court Monday during the first day of oral arguments.

Poll: Most Americans oppose health care law Two-thirds of Americans want the Supreme Court to overturn some or all of the health care law, even though large majorities support a few of its major aspects, according to a poll by The New York Times and CBS News.

At the heart of the opposition is the individual mandate requiring Americans to obtain

are attracted to the film’s heroine, Katniss Everdeen.

A film poster, for example, features a gender-neutral image of a burning pin worn by Everdeen. The movie’s trailer focuses on a scene in which she steps up to replace her younger sister in the deadly combat.

Commercials for the picture aired on programs popular with men, such as college basketball tournaments, as well as with young women, such as CBS Corp. and Time Warner Inc.’s CW network, Spitz said.

Over the first weekend, theatergoers were 61 percent female and 56 percent over age 25, Lions Gate said. That compares with an audience for “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1,” from Summit Entertainment, that was 80 percent female and 60 percent older than 21, according to Spitz.

Hollywood has also found that female stars can reach wide audiences in comedy.

“Bridesmaids,” the raunchy romp starring Kristen Wiig and Maya Rudolph, was a surprise hit for Universal Pictures in May 2011, taking in $169 million in the U.S. and Canada.

For female action heroes, the hits have been sporadic since Sigourney Weaver lit up the screen in the first “Alien” in 1979 — showing how tricky it is to tune both the production and the marketing just right.

“There’s always been a lack of strong female leads,” said Boxoffice.com’s Contrino. “Hollywood’s waking up to that.”

health insurance, the least popular part of the bill and a crucial piece at the center of the court arguments, which began Monday and will turn to the mandate today.

In the latest poll, 47 percent said they oppose the law while 36 percent approve, with the rest having no opinion.

Diabetes Continued from A1 The new studies, published Monday by The New England Journal of Medicine, are the first to rigorously compare medical treatment with these particular stomach and intestinal operations as ways to control diabetes.

The disease, which causes high blood sugar, is linked to obesity and often becomes harder to manage as it progresses. It can bring devastating compli-

Bike lanes Continued from A1 On Monday, county Commissioners Tammy Baney and Tony DeBone said they were unwilling to pay for 8foot bike lanes. DeBone said wider lanes are not worth the additional cost.

“The costs of right-of-way, the cost of more asphalt and paving is just going to be prohibitive,” DeBone said.

Baney said she has not seen any evidence that 8-foot bike lanes are necessary.

“If it were a safety issue,

tor and an enforcer of the law, so it’s not sold to minors. But the conflict exists because the state is in the liquor business and because the state as an agency has an incentive to sell more alcohol to generate more revenue. It’s not a good place for the state to be.”

Rep. John Huffman, R-The Dalles, wrote in an email to the governor’s staff Monday that he doesn’t believe Pharo should be targeted.

“It may be true that I am not aware of situations that may be under consideration by [Gov. John Kitzhaber], but I am aware of positive changes that the Commission is undertaking, a good attitude by many of our liquor agents, and a healthy increase in revenue to the general fund while maintaining safety for Oregonians,” Huffman wrote.

“Under these circumstances it seems like [an] odd time to look at changing the director.”

Amy Wojcicki, the governor’s spokeswoman, said she could not comment on any personnel matters.

Several members from the Oregon Liquor Control Commission, including Chairwoman Cassandra SkinnerLopata and Bend-based Commissioner Ron Roome, did not return multiple calls for comment.

WASHINGTON — An energetic Supreme Court launched its historic review of the national health care overhaul Monday and gave every indication that it will issue an electionyear verdict on President Barack Obama’s controversial signature domestic achievement.

In the first of three days of arguments, the justices sharply questioned three lawyers who came before them, and they appeared ready to cast aside procedural obstacles that might keep them from reaching an ultimate decision on the 2010 health care law.

While Monday’s session was more about tax law than the questions of government power that have animated a national debate, Chief Justice John Roberts at times had to play traffic cop for justices speaking over one another’s questions.

Before a packed courtroom, none of the justices endorsed the argument that the court must wait to examine the law because

of a 19th-century statute prohibiting challenges of taxes that have yet to be levied. The health care law, which was passed by congressional Democrats and widely denounced

by Republicans, prescribes financial penalties for people who fail to purchase health insurance by 2014.

That insurance mandate, the heart of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, will be the subject of today’s twohour oral argument. Monday’s arguments shed little light on how the justices view the constitutionality of what supporters call the “minimum coverage provision” and opponents call the “individual mandate.”

If the session was lively, it was also as unemotional and technical as one might expect for an examination of the 1867 Anti-Injunction Act; it came as a contrast to the festival-like scene on the court’s marble plaza. The courtroom was filled with the law’s biggest political supporters and opponents: Attorney General Eric Holder and Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius on one side, Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., and Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi on the other.

IN BRIEF Boondocks Bar and Grill to close Boondocks Bar and Grill will close after its last call on March 31.

Howie Long, its owner, could not be reached for comment, but the marquee on the Northwest Newport Avenue building states: “Come celebrate our last night, closing March 31st.”

The venue’s Facebook page also confirms its closure, commenting that the rumors are true.

FTC seeks privacy legislation • Agency wants people to have greater control over personal data

By Tanzina Vega and Edward Wyatt New York Times News Service

The Federal Trade Commission on Monday called for greater regulation of the data collection companies that compile a wide range of personal and financial information about millions of consumers, and asked for

a provision that would allow people access to the information collected on them.

The recommendation was part of a sweeping set of guidelines put forth in the commission’s final report on online consumer privacy. In it, the FTC advocates enacting legislation that would provide more restrictions and

transparency for these data brokers, which create detailed user profiles of buyers based on their spending habits, both online and offline. The brokers then sell the information to retailers and marketers.

In its report, the FTC also commended efforts by industry trade groups and technology companies to enact a “do-

not-track” mechanism that allows consumers to choose not to have their personal data collected. But the commission called for businesses to “accelerate the pace” of self-regulation. Many retailers and digital ad companies use that data to display specific ads online that are tailored to the buyer’s interests; some of them will follow users around the Web. See Privacy / B3

EXECUTIVE FILE

Pending home sales hold steady The number of Americans signing contracts to buy previously owned homes held in February near an almost two-year high, a sign that the real estate market may be stabilizing.

The index of pending home purchases fell 0.5 percent to 96.5 after a 2 percent increase the prior month, the National Association of Realtors said Monday in Washington.

January’s reading of 97 was the highest since April 2010. The median forecast of 41 economists surveyed by Bloomberg News called for a 1 percent rise.

EU bailout fund closer to growing The European Union took a big step Monday toward building a financial firewall strong enough to prevent the spread of fiscal contagion to major economies like Spain after Germany dropped its opposition to bringing the Continent’s total bailout capacity to more than 690 billion euros, or $916 billion.

Angela Merkel, the German chancellor, said Monday at a news conference in Berlin that her government remained determined that a permanent European rescue fund should be capped at 500 billion euros.

But in a big concession, she said Germany would not oppose letting that fund operate alongside a temporary fund that has aided Greece, Ireland and Portugal but still has money to lend.

BEND

Target gets expanded grocery, electronics

By Elon Glucklich The Bulletin

Bend’s Target store has wrapped up a threemonth renovation project, expanding its grocery and electronics sections.

The store unveiled its remodel to customers Sunday, from its location at 63435 N. Highway 97.

The grocery store has been expanded to include a larger selection of produce and frozen goods, as well as a bakery, said Rachel Bechtell, senior floor leader for the retail chain’s Bend store.

The store also broadened its wine inventory, and, for the first time, will sell beer.

The hope with the remodel, Bechtell said, was to encourage customers to do more of their food shopping at the store, as well as shopping for clothes and other goods.

Supreme Court orders new look at gene patents Andy Tullis / The Bulletin

Kevin Rea, owner of Let It Ride Electric Bikes, said he’s eager to start running his business out of its new location on Northwest Minnesota Avenue in April.

evin Rea considers himself a true “Bendite,” recalling what Bend used to be like when he moved to the area in 1960.

“Highway 97 still went downtown and Wall Street was a two-way street,” he said.

To share the good old days of Bend but with a modern twist, the owner of Let It Ride Electric Bikes takes riders on a historic electric-bike tour along the Des-

chutes River from Drake Park through the Old Mill District, revealing the rich past of the city.

When Rea started Let It Ride last spring on Northwest Bond Street, he shared the building with Bend Mapping

and Blue Print and focused on historical tours. But the Bend company will be offering more when it moves into its new location on Northwest Minnesota Avenue in April. Rea, 61, said the store will sell Pedego electric and traditional bikes as well as accessories he calls “cruiser candy,” do repairs and tune-ups, offer electric-bike conversions and provide bike rentals.

“I think we’ll become the anchor for Tin Pan Alley,” he said. “You’ll be able to hang out and have a Coke and an energy bar and sit there and watch people work on a bike…”

Rea said although the store will have its own retail space, he initially plans to have a minimal amount of inventory, and the tours will be a vital part of the business.

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Monday ordered an appeals court to reconsider its decision to uphold patents held by Myriad Genetics on two genes associated with a high risk of breast and ovarian cancer.

The appeals court was told to take another look at the case in light of the Supreme Court’s ruling last week that a diagnostic test was not eligible for patents because it was a simple application of a law of nature.

The Myriad case is being closely watched because it involves the ethically charged but commercially important question of whether genes can be patented.

The company, along with the University of Utah, was the first to isolate the two genes in question, known as BRCA1 and BRCA2.

App explodes, and lives are changed

By Brian X. Chen and Jenna Wortham

Dan Porter is the chief executive of Omgpop, which was acquired last week by Zynga for $180 million.

New York Times News Service

NEW YORK — At a cocktail party on the second floor of the expensive Bowery Hotel in Manhattan on Thursday night, as trays of stuffed mushrooms and thinly sliced filet mignon circulated, Charles Forman was marveling at how quickly things can change.

“I had $1,700 in my bank account yesterday, and now I have a whole lot more,” Forman said.

The party was in celebration of Zynga’s purchase of Omgpop, a New York-based game maker founded by Forman, and it was extravagant to an extent that Omgpop’s employees could only have dreamed of until

recently.

Omgpop had been limping along until “Draw Something,” a smartphone game it introduced just seven weeks ago, became a breakout hit. That drew the attention of Zynga, the maker of “FarmVille” and the current king of social games, which last week bought Omgpop for $180 million.

“Draw Something” transformed Omgpop from a little-known, nearly broke startup into a must-have for an industry giant. The Zynga deal shows how companies are moving at Internet speed to stay on top of online trends, generating quick reversals of fortune.

travel to and from work but don’t want to drive their gas guzzlers.”

Continued from B1 “It’s something you do on the spur of the moment with friends,” he said.

Last season, he said, he gave more than 200 tours to both tourists and locals.

Even Bend residents will learn something on the tours, he said.

Riders will hear stories about the Mirror Pond Pageants, about when the Old Mill District was really two old mills, as well as more sultry tales of unsolved murders.

While some traditional riders oppose the concept of a bike you don’t have to pedal, electric bikes provide an alternative, he said.

Electric bikes can go up to 20 miles unassisted, he said, giving riders the choice to pedal or not throughout the ride. To avoid being considered a motorized vehicle, the bikes cannot exceed 20 mph.

“Electric bikes have the ability to get the couch potato off the couch,” he said.

“You don’t have that excuse that ‘I can’t do this hill like I used to’ or that you have a bad knee.”

Rea said the average customer buying a Pedego bike is 58 years old.

“We’re the electric cruiser bike for mom and dad,” he said. “While their son is out doing Phil’s Trail, they can take a stroll along the river through Drake Park and to the Old Mill and back.”

Along with attracting the baby-boomer generation, he said, electric bikes are becoming a popular mode of transportation.

“It’s the perfect niche for people who are interested in innovation and have to

Continued from B1 “They bought a property that went from 0 to 60 in four seconds,” said Lewis Ward, a research analyst at IDC who focuses on the game industry.

“Draw Something,” a twist on Pictionary, involves making quick sketches that illustrate words and phrases like “swimming pool” and “starfish” for a friend to guess. It has been downloaded more than 35 million times since its release Feb. 6, and players have generated more than 1 billion drawings, according to Zynga.

Forman, 32, was not directly involved in creating “Draw Something.” He left the company a year ago but kept his stake in it, and has been trying to get another startup off the ground. In an interview he declined to say how much the deal was worth to him, but he said it was “way more” than $22 million. “It’s the kind of money where I’ll be wearing whatever I want when somebody invites me to a wedding.”

made you want Q: What to do historical tours?

I went down to L.A. A: to have lunch with the business owners of Pedego. They encouraged me to check out the electric bike tour in Santa Monica.

They do a little history, but it’s mostly a people show. I thought the idea was perfect and decided to design my own Bend route and base the tour on Bend’s history.

What did you do beQ: I’ve fore Let It Ride? been a builder A: since 1977 and still am. We had this hiccup in the economy, so when my son-in-law came into town with his friend who had been selling electric bikes in Venice, Calif., I started checking them out. I fell in love with them and before I knew it I bought a franchise for Pedego electric bikes.

How did you come up with the name Let It Q: Ride?

Some lady in the airA: port mentioned the name Let It Ride because it was one of her favorite songs and it just stuck. It was a good fit for me, the baby boomer.

Target

Continued from B1 Companies are resisting do-not-track legislation and instead contend they can discipline themselves. Last month, federal regulators, members of advertising trade groups and technology companies announced their support for a consumer privacy bill of rights issued by the White House and agreed to honor a voluntary do-not-track system.

The report comes as consumer groups and privacy advocates are expressing increasing concern about the volume of consumer data that is being collected and how it is being used. These groups want legislation that gives users more control over the information collected on them.

This is the first remodel the store has received, Bechtell said.

Large sheets had been placed over the remodel area to block it off to customers, since work began in December. They were taken down Sunday.

“We are 100 percent complete” with the renovations, Bechtell said.

Though the interior project is done, Target officials hope to start on an exterior paint job this summer.

Continued from B1 The estimated cost of the project was $900,000, according to building permit data issued by the City of Bend in December.

“It’s great. The entire store has gotten a face lift,” Bechtell said.

Besides the new grocery selection, Target has added room for a wider electronics inventory and has reorganized its clothing sections.

The store opened in 1996.

On release day last month, Porter watched a counter ticking off the number of game downloads. It reached 30,000 that day — not too impressive. But about 10 days later, the downloads accelerated exponentially, soon topping 1 million.

People began posting their sketches on Twitter and Facebook, helping the game spread rapidly. And the game topped the Apple App Store charts,

The FTC said it intends to work with the White House and the Commerce Department on proposals they unveiled last month to develop voluntary industrywide codes of conduct that the FTC can enforce. The FTC also will push for legislation; while Jon Leibowitz, chairman of the FTC, said the commission did not endorse any specific legislation, he mentioned a bill introduced in the Senate in April 2011 by John Kerry, D-Mass., and John McCain, R-Ariz.

That bill seeks to require companies to tell consumers what data are being collected and allow them to opt out of the practice; in addition, consumers would have the right to be required to opt in to the collection of sensitive information, like those related to

medical conditions.

At least two other bills have also been introduced in Congress. One, by Sen. Jay Rockefeller, D-W.Va., supports a mandatory do-not-track mechanism within every Internet browser. Rep. Jackie Speier, D-Calif., proposed a bill with an opt-out mechanism for data collection, and Reps. Edward Markey, D-Mass., and Joe Barton, R-Texas, have offered a bill enhancing children’s privacy online, something the FTC report also supports.

None of that legislation is likely to make it into law in this congressional session, however, given the heavy schedule of pending matters and re-election campaigns. But Leibowitz said he expects it to occur early in the next Congress.

“If a real do-not-track option

doesn’t come to fruition by the end of the year,” he said, “there will be, I don’t want to say a tsunami of support for do-nottrack legislation next Congress, but certainly a lot of support for the notion of do not track.”

The FTC suggested the guidelines would not affect small business or companies that collect online data from 5,000 people or fewer and do not sell that data to third parties. It would also loosen the guidelines for companies that collect data for the purposes consistent with the context of a user’s visit to a particular Web site. For example, if a user visits a Web site to make a purchase, the company would be able to collect data on that user and would not be required to offer consumers the option to opt out of data collection.

Runaway success

Porter, who will become Zynga’s general manager of operations in New York, declined to confirm this, but said: “Before this game came out, we raised a bunch of money, and we hadn’t made any hit games. That can’t go on forever.”

Omgpop did not start as a game company. Six years ago, Forman, a workout enthusiast whose Facebook page features a close-up of his abdominal muscles, founded what was then called I’m in Like With You, a dating site where users could essentially put themselves up for auction.

“The entire company started as a joke, honestly,” Forman said. He saw the site as a form of entertainment, he said,

ries. I also grew up here, so it makes it even more fun to share my history.

and only later realized that people were spending a lot of time on it. To capitalize on that audience, he converted it into a game site and renamed it Omgpop. “It’s one for the record books,” he said of the success of the company. “It is something I did not expect.”

Forman brought on Dan Porter, the former president of Teach for America who had experience at other startups, to be chief executive in December 2008.

Omgpop raised $17 million from investors and made about 35 games, but was not bringing in much revenue. In fact it was on track to run out of money by May, and probably would have shut down by now if not for the wild success of “Draw Something,” according to two former employees who were familiar with its finances but insisted on ano-

guaranteeing that many more people would hear of it and try it. “Draw Something,” offered as a $1 download and a free version with ads, both with the option of paying for extra features, began generating hundreds of thousands of dollars a day.

“It never slowed down,” Porter said. “The bigger it got, the bigger it got.”

That success attracted suitors, and soon executives of Zynga, which is based in San Francisco, were boarding planes for New York to talk about an acquisition. Ward of IDC said Zynga’s pursuit of Omgpop was a sign that it was emphasizing mobile apps, instead of the Facebook-based Web games that drove its initial success.

Zynga certainly wasted no time: The deal was announced Wednesday, and by Thursday all 40 or so employees of Omgpop were already working for Zynga, having been briefed on company policies and their new health coverage. About 60 people attended the party that night, many of them members of the Omgpop crew, who congratulated one another with high-fives, hugs and celebratory photographs.

Porter said he was planning to take a family trip to Costa Rica before settling into his new job. Forman, who now works on Picturelife, a photo storage service, said that after the deal closed he was in such a daze that he wandered into traffic.

“I walked across the street, and all I heard was ‘honk,’” he said. “It was surreal.”

Alwin Ventura, an analyst for Omgpop, plays “Draw Something,” the company’s hit game, at the company’s office in New York. “Draw Something” involves making drawings that illustrate words and phrases for a friend to guess.

Michaels plans to file for IPO

By Michael J. de la Merced New York Times News Service

Michaels Stores, the arts and crafts retailer owned by the Blackstone Group and Bain Capital, plans to file to go public as soon as next week, according to people briefed on the matter. The initial public offering could be one of the biggest of the year.

Blackstone and Bain have hired JPMorgan Chase and Goldman Sachs to lead the company’s initial public of-

Patents Continued from B1 It also developed a test that examines extracted DNA from the genes for signs of mutations that indicate a woman is at a high risk of getting breast or ovarian cancer.

The patent on the genes prevents other laboratories from performing similar tests.

The rulings came in response to a lawsuit filed by the American Civil Liberties Union and the Public Patent Foundation on behalf of various medical groups, patients and researchers. The suit argued that human genes could not be patented because they were products of nature, and

fering, said these people, who requested anonymity to talk about private discussions. The timing of the actual stock sale has not yet been determined.

Aside from Facebook, whose looming stock sale overshadows the public offering landscape, Michaels would be one of the most anticipated public offerings this year. Private equity firms have looked to sell their holdings, in an effort to generate realized gains for

themselves and their limited partners. Some of these leveraged buyout shops have been eager to demonstrate real returns as they raise money for new investment funds.

Nearly six years ago, Michaels was acquired for $6 billion, just as the private equity industry embarked on what became the leveraged buyout boom, when ever-bigger companies were bought thanks to a flood of cheap debt.

that Myriad’s monopoly on testing for mutations in those genes raised medical costs and prevented women from getting a second opinion.

Last week the Supreme Court ruled that a blood test developed by Prometheus Laboratories was not eligible for a patent. In the unanimous decision, Justice Stephen Breyer wrote that inventors must do more than “recite a law of nature and then add the instruction ‘apply the law.’�

That decision dismayed some executives in the diagnostics and biotechnology industries, who said that lack of patentability could undermine incentives to develop personalized medicine, in

which tests are used to determine which patients should get a drug, or what their dose should be.

But some doctor groups cheered the decision, saying that patents on tests could actually impede research.

Myriad’s stock fell the day of the Prometheus decision as investors feared it meant that the Supreme Court was inclined also to rule that genes could not be patented.

But Myriad’s stock rose 56 cents to $23.34 on Monday.

That could be because the Supreme Court will now not be hearing the case itself, leaving it to the presumably more patent-friendly appellate court.

t’s been nearly six months since a cougar faced off with fisherman Kent Baer along the Deschutes River north of Bend.

Today, that cougar is now dead and Baer is ready to return to one of his favorite fishing holes.

Baer’s cougar encounter came after sightings last spring in Deschutes River Woods and along the Deschutes River Trail in Bend and before the recent killing of a cougar family in a subdivision near Sisters. The sightings and attacks are reminders that Central Oregon is cougar country.

Baer, 47, of Redmond, said he has not been back to Foley Waters, a stretch of the river passing over property overseen by the Bureau of Land Management near Crooked River Ranch since the Oct. 1 cougar sighting.

“I definitely will (return) once fishing season gets going,” he said. When he does, Baer said he likely won’t go alone.

Last October, Baer’s regular fishing buddy wasn’t able to make the trip to the river so he went by himself. After catching three or four trout — which he released back into the Deschutes River — he started the walk back to his truck at twilight. As he walked, he was still wearing his waders and carrying his rod. Close to the top of the canyon, and still about a half mile from his truck, he felt an urge to turn around.

There he spotted a cougar crouching about 10 feet from him.

Cougar counts There are about 7,000 cougars in Oregon, said Dave Williams, state director of the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Wildlife Services.

When cougars threaten, harm or kill livestock the agency regularly responds by killing the cougar. Wildlife Services kills an average of about 80 cougars a year statewide.

Hunters also kill more than 200 cougars a year, according to Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife data.

Baer laid down his rod, picked up some rocks and tossed them at the cougar. He hit the animal and while it retreated some, it kept its interest in Baer.

Baer backed his way to his truck, with the cougar following him. During the slow shuffle, the cougar pawed toward him growling, coming as close as 6 feet.

“He followed me to where I could see where the trailhead signs are,” Baer said.

The cougar then took off into the trees and Baer took off in his truck.

After Baer’s cougar sighting the BLM put up signs warning visitors about cougars around Foley Waters and nearby Steelhead Falls.

The cougar’s behavior around Baer is also what triggered the hunt for it near Foley Waters.

Days after killing three young cougars in a subdivision near Aspen Lakes Golf Course, a federal hunter and trapper on Thursday killed another cub and the suspected mother of all four young cats.

A hunter and trapper with the U.S. Department of Agriculture Wildlife Services killed the mother cougar and a male cub Thursday night about an eighth of a mile from where the other three cats were killed last week, said Michelle Dennehy, spokeswoman for the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife in Salem. The mother cougar had been spotted recently going through horse pastures and dog runs, as well as over decks.

“She was clearly hunting in a neighborhood,” Dennehy said.

On March 18, the hunter and trapper killed three young cougars after reports of an attack on two dogs and possibly chickens in the subdivision northeast of Sisters.

The three cubs, which were between 18 and 20 months old, weighed about 90 pounds each, said David Williams, state director for Wildlife Services.

“They were very good-sized animals,” he said.

DESCHUTES COUNTY

Meningococcal warning issued after Bend case

By Patrick Cliff The Bulletin

A 5-year-old Bend girl has contracted meningococcal disease, a Deschutes County health official confirmed Monday.

The case comes after Crook County Public Health Department announced an outbreak of the disease in February. There is no indication the Bend case is related to that outbreak, though Deschutes County officials are awaiting test

results this week that could confirm whether there are connections.

Deschutes County Community Health Program Manager Tom Kuhn said county officials do not know the girl’s health status. In recent days, however, the county investigated who the girl had close contact with and made certain those roughly 40 people received preventive antibiotics, according to Kuhn.

MADRAS — Out of all Central Oregon cities, Madras is least expensive when it comes to system development charges.

The city is also a part of Jefferson County’s expansive rural enterprise zone, in addition to areas of Metolius, Culver and Warm Springs.

Yet in northwest Madras, Jefferson County Business Park is largely empty. Only two of the 10 city-owned properties have been purchased since they were put up for sale in 2004.

While Madras is in some ways ripe for business development, misperceptions about SDCs and a lack of available land keep the city from going forward, according to an annual report issued by the Economic Development for Central Oregon.

Last week, city officials met with EDCO to address these issues in hopes that the two can put the city on a fast track toward development.

SDCs are one-time userimpact fees that property owners pay to cities for utility infrastructure and other capital improvements.

Though unpopular, SDCs are necessary, said Nicholas Snead, director of the city’s community development department.

we could do to help prevent the disease from spreading at this point,” Kuhn said.

The county continues to recommend that all people between 11 and 18 years old receive a meningococcal disease vaccine. Additionally, anyone between the ages of 2 and 55 who is considered high risk should get the vaccine, according to the county.

High fever, stiff neck and fever are the “hallmark symptoms” of the disease,

according to the county.

Symptoms often appear within three or four days of exposure, but can take up to 10 days to emerge, county officials said in a news release.

Dr. John Chunn, a pediatrician at Central Oregon Pediatric Associates, said another symptom is a “rusty brown” rash — sometimes, it is described as purple — that does not change colors when pressure is applied.

Bend park district finds cheap labor in inmate work crews

By Hillary Borrud The Bulletin

For years, the Deschutes County jail has offered inmates spots on work crews as a reward for good behavior and a way to serve the community.

Inmates do landscaping and park construction work for agencies including the Bend Park & Recreation District, where the staff has been impressed with their work.

“It’s a great program,” said Paul Stell, the district’s natural resources manager.

County commissioners will vote on a new two-year contract with the park district Wednesday. Other agencies also use the work crews, including the Bend Public Works Department, the county’s road department and the Deschutes County Fair & Expo Center.

Inmates tackle a variety of jobs for the park district, like taming overgrown grass.

“We’ll have them on weed eaters, knocking stuff down,” Stell said.

The park district calls in the crews when it needs extra help.

They are perfect for park construction projects that require a lot of workers.

“You’ll have people picking rocks out of ditches and laying down sod,” Stell said.

Inmates from the county jail have long worked on local projects, but the program stopped when the county closed its work-release program in 2003 due to a funding shortage.

Jon Belozer, a wildlife specialist for the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Wildlife Services, uses hounds to search for cougars in Central Oregon. He used the hounds to find a pair of cougars last fall and five cougars in a subdivision near Sisters this month.

Cougars

SOLIDIFIED Jon McFaddin, of Bend, snapped this photo of dry polyurethane at the bottom of a one-gallon can using a Kodak EasyShare Z915.

Continued from C1 “It was extremely aggressive,” said Steven George, district wildlife biologist for the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife in Bend. “That is not normal behavior.”

The terrain around the trail where Baer saw a cougar was covered in cougar tracks.

About three weeks after Baer’s sighting, Jon Belozer — a wildlife specialist for Wildlife Services — tracked down the two cougars using hounds and killed them, said David Williams, state director for the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Wildlife Services.

The cougars were also linked to the killing of a horse and some captive deer or elk near Crooked River Ranch last October after Baer’s encounter.

The cougars were a fullgrown male and female, each

likely weighing more than 100 pounds, although exact weights weren’t available.

Both of the cougars were adults, between two to five years old, said George.

Kernel Moses holds a sign Monday outside Portland City Hall during an Occupy Portland protest.

Dozens of demonstrators marched downtown Sunday night to protest the city’s ban on camping. Police monitored the rally and said no structures would be allowed by anyone

staying overnight. No arrests were reported Monday morning.

Some protesters slept in sleeping bags on the concrete outside City Hall overnight.

One demonstrator told KGW it’s unfair to the homeless who risk arrest if they put up a structure.

SOU fires head of public radio station

Medford — put a strain on the university’s own fundraising.

Comments support Waldo motor ban

ASHLAND — Southern Oregon University has terminated the head of Jefferson Public Radio in Ashland after an audit suggested his dual role running the radio stations and a fundraising foundation was a conflict of interest.

JPR Foundation President Scott Nelson told the Medford Mail Tribune newspaper on Monday that university President Mary Cullinan terminated Ron Kramer effective June 30.

Nelson says he hopes Kramer stays on as head of the foundation. Kramer has held the two posts since 1997. They pay a combined salary of $94,728.

The audit concluded the foundation’s debt ratio was twice as high as it should be. It added that a $7 million project — renovating the old Holly Theatre in Medford and moving the radio station to

Governor hires energy adviser

EUGENE — In less than a month, the Oregon State Marine Board received nearly 3,000 comments about the ban on motorboats and seaplanes on Waldo Lake.

The agency says most comments support the ban; about 30 ask that the ban be modified.

The Eugene Register-Guard reports the board is reassessing the 2010 ban because of a lawsuit filed by some motorboat and seaplane owners.

They say the ban is unnecessary and the state board doesn’t control the lake located in eastern Lane County.

Many hikers and kayakers say Waldo Lake is a haven that should be protected from engine noise and pollution.

The Marine Board could act on the ban at its April 10 meeting in Springfield.

SALEM — Gov. John Kitzhaber has hired a new energy policy adviser.

The governor’s office announced Monday that Margi Hoffmann — a lobbyist who has worked on renewable energy legislation — will fill the job starting Monday.

Hoffman was previously the senior vice president and director of Oregon operations for Strategies 360, a Seattlebased public relations, marketing and lobbying firm.

Kitzhaber says in a statement that Hoffmann’s passion and expertise on energy policy will be an asset. He says pursuing an aggressive clean energy strategy will help Oregon compete for jobs.

Hoffmann will earn $97,068 per year.

Backyard beekeepers buzzing for less strict rules in Ashland

By Vickie Aldous Ashland Daily Tidings

As the Ashland City Council considers whether to loosen regulations on backyard chickens, some residents are pushing for rule changes to welcome another group of creatures into town — bees.

The concept of allowing more hives is alarming to some residents who fear being stung or who worry about the fraction of the population that can have a severe anaphylactic allergic reaction to bee venom and die.

The Ashland Municipal Code requires bee hives to be more than 150 feet from any neighboring home, street or sidewalk. That makes hives illegal on most lots.

The code requires chickens to be kept more than 75 feet away from neighboring homes. City Council members are considering whether to lower that buffer zone to 20 feet. They likely will take up the chicken issue in April amidst requests from some residents that they also loosen rules on other poultry, rabbits and bees.

Jacksonville-based bee expert Sarah Red-Laird, the founder and executive director of the beekeeping education service Bee Girl, said Ashlanders should not fear hives in town.

Bees from wild colonies in Ashland already visit backyards and gardens, she said.

“A really important thing to know about beekeeping in urban settings is that 90 percent of stings come from wasps,” Red-Laird said. “Only 10 percent of stings are from honeybees. Bees only sting defensively when something gets into their hive or if you ac-

“A really important thing to know about beekeeping in urban settings is that 90 percent of stings come from wasps. Only 10 percent of stings are from honeybees. Bees only sting defensively when something gets into their hive or if you accidentally squish one.”

cidentally squish one.”

Red-Laird said 2 percent of the world’s population can have an anaphylactic reaction to bee stings. People often think they are allergic to bees when they are not because they have experienced localized pain and swelling after being stung — a normal physical reaction.

Red-Laird said she thinks the City Council should drop the bee hive buffer zone rule altogether and leave it to her organization and other groups such as the Southern Oregon Beekeeper Association to educate people who want hives.

One Ashland resident, who asked not to be named, has her own hive of bees in town that she captured after a friend’s hive produced a swarm.

The swarm had clustered on a rose bush, so the woman — wearing protective gear — snipped a branch off and put the swarm’s queen and followers into a hive.

The woman said her neighbors can see the hive, which abuts a tall wall of climbing roses, but have not complained. The hive is illegally inside the city’s 150-foot buffer zone.

The woman said she has had no problems with the bees and she gardens within 10 feet of the hive. The bees have created a “highway” through the air as they go to and from the hive. The woman said the bees will bonk into her if she stands in their way, but then they continue on their business.

With bees nationwide affected by colony collapse disorder, herbicides, insecticides, pollutants and other challenges, the woman said she is glad to host bees.

“I am so thrilled that by the grace of nature, bees are here and thriving in this backyard,” she said.

At Southern Oregon University, graduate student Ryan King plans to install three hives inside the fence of the campus community garden by the end of May. He hopes to research colony collapse disorder and educate students of all ages about bees.

“It will be an asset. This will be an attraction for incoming students,” King said.

The hives will be well away from neighboring residences.

King said the idea of having more hives in Ashland may frighten some people, but bees already are among us. He said the city’s 150-foot bee hive buffer zone rule doesn’t make a lot of sense from a purely scientific standpoint.

“Bees have a two-mile flying radius to collect nectar and pollen. Anyone within two miles of a bee hive is around bees,” King said.

School sues Canyonville claiming discrimination The Associated Press ROSEBURG — A Christian boarding school has filed a discrimination lawsuit against a Southern Oregon town that charges tax-exempt organizations a premium for water and sewer service.

The lawsuit argues that the city of Canyonville has no basis for charging tax-exempt organizations such as public schools and churches twice the going rate for water and adding a surcharge for sewer service, the Roseburg NewsReview newspaper reported Monday.

Officials at Canyonville Christian Academy say the overcharges amount to about $200,000 since 1988, which is as far back as its records go.

The boarding school has about 100 students, a majority from outside Douglas County and from foreign countries. They live in campus dormitories.

The school wasn’t aware of the policy until a broken water pipe sent thousands of gallons of water into

the ground. Since sewer fees are tied to water consumption and the spilled water was not treated in the city’s sewer plant, officials researched city ordinances before seeking a partial refund of the sewer fees.

“My first thought was, ‘No, they can’t do that. There has to be something wrong with that,’” said Roger Shaffer, a board member who also teaches government at the academy. “It doesn’t pass the smell test.”

City officials said they couldn’t discuss the litigation, filed in Douglas County Circuit Court in Roseburg.

The higher fees apply to re-

ligious schools and churches, as well as public schools and other tax-exempt organizations. Water and sewer customers who live outside the city limits also pay the higher fees.

Nassau County on New York’s Long Island recently imposed a sewer surcharge on tax-exempt school districts. The 19 school districts are fighting the fee on the grounds it amounts to a tax.

Canyonville Christian Academy has lobbied the Canyonville City Council since last June to change its policy, and in October, the school offered to accept a partial refund, in the form of credits on future bills. That offer was rejected.

“Our goal isn’t to hurt the city,” Headmaster Cathy Lovato said. “We just wanted the city to change its ordinance.”

AP, IB testing gives valuable data on schools

I

t was good to learn the other day that local school districts plan to step up to the plate so low-income students may continue to take Advanced Placement and Inter-

national Baccalaureate exams in their senior year. The cost won’t be huge and the benefits go beyond the benefits for the students taking the classes.

AP and IB are the two most broadly recognized programs aimed at the best and the brightest among high school students.

The coursework they offer is more rigorous than typical high school fare, and doing well on the national exams available in each program can mean free college credit for individual students.

That’s no small thing, given the cost of college these days. Students at all seven public Oregon universities and at Oregon Health & Science University, for example, may earn credit in a variety of subjects for doing well on those AP and IB exams.

Students with limited income should not be denied the ability to take the exams. The federal funding, which had subsidized exams for low-income students, is gone. Districts in Central Oregon have promised to pick up the slack.

Beyond the boon good test scores are for students, the testing itself is valuable to the school districts that offer the programs. Test scores can give administrators an insight into how well individual teachers are getting information to students in their classrooms.

The testing should be — but generally isn’t — valuable to the broader community, as well. If students in a district generally do not earn college credits for AP and IB coursework, that’s an indication that something about the way a district runs the programs is wrong. Yet school districts routinely deny the public any hint of how well students do on the exams.

We can understand districts’ refusal to release the names of students taking the exams. At the same time, surely they can release some information of about how those students do.

OLCC director is not root of agency’s ills

G

ov. John Kitzhaber apparently has an issue with Steve Pharo, director of the Oregon Liquor Control Commission. Kitzhaber wants him gone.

If the governor wants Pharo to go, he should go, but changing the person at the top doesn’t change what’s critically wrong with the OLCC. The OLCC’s board is going to hold a meeting this week to make a decision about Pharo. The board members, who are appointed by the governor, hire and fire the director.

Kitzhaber has not described what his problem is with Pharo.

There was an incident last year that should have been enough.

Pharo’s OLCC defied Kitzhaber’s instructions on how to handle a bill that would have given Grocery Outlet the authority to store and ship wine without paying distributors. Kitzhaber asked the OLCC to remain neutral on the bill. The OLCC did not.

The Oregonian reported a story with documents that showed the OLCC working together with an industry lobbyist to block the bill.

Strike one.

What’s more, state Sen. Jason Atkinson, R-Central Point, accused Pharo and his staff of lying about how much it would cost the OLCC to collect taxes from Grocery Outlet under the bill.

Strike two.

The first strike should have been enough, but the OLCC itself is a bigger problem. It is an agency out of balance.

It places unreasonable burdens on businesses. It creates unnecessary bureaucracy.

Supermarkets can sell wine and beer, but not liquor? Producers, distributors and retailers can’t be linked? The state must provide a distribution system for hard liquor?

The OLCC was created as Oregon emerged from Prohibition to protect the state from the problems that led to Prohibition. That doesn’t mean we have to stick with it. Other states manage just fine without OLCC’s thirst for regulation.

More than just Pharo should go.

Kitzhaber should be looking for a new director who is looking to narrow or eliminate the agency.

Right call on fair housing law

By Rigel Oliveri The Washington Post

T

he U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit issued an opinion last month rooted in both the Constitution and common sense: It ruled that people seeking roommates are shielded from fair-housing laws by the First Amendment’s protection of free association. In so doing, the court upended a core assumption shared by many fair-housing advocates. Paradoxically, this ruling was the best outcome for those of us who care about protecting the rights of people to be free in their choice of housing.

Here’s the background: The Fair Housing Act prohibits denying housing to someone based on a protected characteristic, such as race or religion. It also prohibits making or publishing discriminatory advertisements for housing. Both the person placing the ad and the newspaper that runs it can be liable under this provision. As a result, newspapers have the incentive to screen out discriminatory housing ads, and such messages have essentially vanished from the classified pages.

Then the Internet came along, and sites such as Craigslist became an increasingly popular way to advertise housing. Additionally, the Telecommunications Act of 1996, which immunizes websites from liability for user-supplied content, was signed into law. One practical effect of this law is that websites have no legal incentive to screen out discriminatory housing ads.

As a former civil rights lawyer, I was alarmed by this turn of events, anticipating a torrent of bigoted advertisements by landlords. As an academic, I was intrigued by the opportunity it presented for research.

So two years ago I undertook a study of 10,000 housing ads posted to Craigslist from across the country. I divided my sample in half, 5,000 ads for rentals and 5,000 ads for roommates, and analyzed each group for discriminatory statements.

What I found was both revelatory and obvious: The vast majority of discriminatory ads were taken out by people seeking roommates — that is, by ordinary individuals looking for someone to help share the rent.

Almost none of the problematic ads were posted by landlords.

No doubt this is partly due to the fact that landlords, as housing professionals, are aware that the law prohibits them from posting discriminatory ads, while ordinary roommate-seekers are oblivious. Some of this is surely due to the intimate nature of the roommate relationship. Roommates share close quarters and often spend a good deal of time together. Things that might be important to a roommate-seeker — for example, whether the prospective roommate keeps a kosher kitchen or speaks Mandarin as a first language — would be both bizarre and illegal for a landlord to consider when renting to a tenant.

My research also revealed that most of the ads expressing a racial, religious or ethnic preference were placed by members of minority

groups who were seeking roommates like themselves.

No matter their motives, however, these people were in violation of the Fair Housing Act and subject to civil prosecution. Yet this cannot be a proper application of the law. Just as it would be abhorrent for the government to prevent people of different races, ethnicities or religions from living together, it would be equally offensive to block people of a shared race, ethnicity or religion from living together. The right of free association should allow those seeking roommates to limit their searches to people with whom they will be comfortable.

Which brings us to the 9th Circuit’s recent decision. In ruling that the First Amendment protects people’s ability to advertise preferences for roommates, the court brings the law in line with a view surely shared by many across all segments of society.

The decision may look like a setback for civil rights, yet it also has pro-civil-rights implications. If we have a right to live with whomever, then people in non-traditional living arrangements should be protected from governmental intrusion.

If the 9th Circuit had ruled differently, the potential for backlash would have been enormous and support for a crucial civil rights law would have been undermined. Vigorous support for fair housing is as important as ever, but interfering in people’s roommate choices is the wrong way to go about it. — Rigel Oliveri is an associate dean at the University of Missouri Law School.

Supreme Court’s affinity for arbitration might hurt investors

By Lawrence A. Cunningham The Baltimore Sun

I

f you think you will have your day in court when aggrieved by civil injustice, think again. More likely, you will be headed for a meeting run by a professional arbitrator. Ironically, the Supreme Court is to blame.

It is leading a quiet transformation by moving the country from using public court trials to secret arbitration hearings.

Justice in a court of law emphasizes fairness, using costly traditional practices: impartial juries, trained judges, media-saturated trials open to the public, discovery of information, published opinions explaining judicial reasoning and review by an appellate panel.

Arbitration prizes efficiency, as umpires choose winners and losers quickly and cheaply. Hearings occur behind closed doors without press coverage and skip the protracted steps of discovery, published explanations, or appeal, even if obvious errors are made.

Today’s Supreme Court strongly

favors arbitration over litigation, not only for battles between businesses — where efficiency is paramount — but for the rest of us too, as consumers, employees, homeowners or patients. That is why, in standard forms that people sign, you can find dense verbiage in small print that few people read — or could understand if they did — relegating all disputes to arbitration. Chances are you have signed such contracts, whether with your bank, cellphone service provider or doctor. They prescribe how the process will work, often requiring a one-on-one affair, preventing the aggrieved from banding together to forge strength in a class action.

Nearly 90 years ago, Congress passed the Federal Arbitration Act to reverse the repugnance many state judges of that period had to arbitration agreements. In the past two decades, the Supreme Court has been rereading this law expansively to find a national policy favoring arbitration over litigation. Today’s justices claim they force arbitration only on

those who freely opt for it, in accord with the principles of contracting.

But they have redefined the meaning of contracting. For example, if you and your business partner agree to resolve disputes between the two of you in arbitration, the court may well rule that you also agreed to arbitrate with your business’ advisors too. In a more extreme and recent example, the court — by a 5-4 vote — simply ignored state laws that invalidate contracts that are unconscionable.

The court puts few curbs on its enthusiasm for promoting arbitration. It highlights no settings where it should be disfavored and rarely questions whether standardized forms pass muster as contracts, though this habit appears to make at least a few of the justices uncomfortable.

A new context where the court could set limits on arbitration emerged this month when the Carlyle Group, a private equity firm, announced plans to sell its securities to the public. It proposed language in its partnership agreement to require holders of its

securities to resolve any dispute with the firm in arbitration, not court.

Following decades of precedent, the Securities and Exchange Commission refused to permit the offering to go forward with that provision. It referenced a venerable federal securities law holding invalid any agreement that would weaken its investor protections.

Access to the federal judiciary is a core aspect of these protections. A principal purpose of the federal securities laws is to deter fraud — something the prospect of a protracted public trial offers that a private, confidential arbitration hearing does not. As a result of the commission’s pushback, and investor revolts, Carlyle withdrew its proposal.

That will not end the story, however, because other companies are intrigued by Carlyle’s position. Companies that have public shares outstanding are likely to propose adding mandatory arbitration clauses to their charters. Yet the FAA never contemplated arbitration dictated by a corporate charter, only in a contract. A contract is epitomized by two

parties in an exchange, not a group referendum passed by majority vote.

So you might expect the Supreme Court to respect the long-standing national policy of investor protection that gives investors their day in court to challenge securities fraud.

But the Supreme Court, being captivated by arbitration and prone to stretching its imagination in this field, may find an innovative way to circumvent even this common-sense view.

The court’s unorthodox course has caught the attention of members of Congress, where bills are being proposed to invalidate mandatory arbitration clauses in certain settings. But the general public must be properly informed about this ongoing revolution in dispute resolution, which has been slyly stoked by a small group of judges in Washington whose biases paradoxically oppose the traditions of justice to which they swore professional allegiance. — Lawrence Cunningham is a professor at George Washington University Law School.

Effort under way to ban toxic ammo

By Rob Hotakainen McClatchy-Tribune News Service

WASHINGTON — Using a canoe or her 10-foot Zodiac boat, Martha Jordan has scooped up hundreds of sick or dead swans from Judson Lake in northwestern Washington state, the site of one of the worst known cases of lead poisoning among wildlife.

According to her count, at least 2,700 of them have died or needed to be euthanized since 1999 after eating lead from ammunition left in the wild by hunters. Jordan, a 62-year-old wildlife biologist from Everett, Wash., wonders why the federal government won’t help more of the birds live by banning lead in ammunition. “I live with the results of lead shot,� she said. “I live it, I breathe it — and it just sickens me when people continue to use it. ... It’s pretty heart-wrenching for everybody involved. I don’t want to do this. I don’t want to spend my time picking up dying swans. We pick them up every year. It’s a constant, chronic problem.�

However, the city has striven to ease the burden of SDCs, in part to encourage business in the midst of recession.

In 2009, councilors voted to reduce the city’s SDC rate by 20 percent, and agreed not to raise the rate for at least three years.

The city also approved a deferred-payment option that allowed developers to pay SDCs within nine months of development or when they obtain a certificate of occupancy.

would not only increase costs for hunters, sport shooters and fishermen, but would devastate the outdoor sportsmen and recreation industries that thrive in rural America,� Hastings said, responding in a statement to questions about the issue.

Since 1991, the federal government has banned the use of lead shot for waterfowl hunting, and states and local jurisdictions have passed laws on their own.

Environmentalists say the patchwork of laws hasn’t gone far enough, noting that too many birds are still dying after eating lead that’s still allowed in most places for the hunting of upland birds, small mammals, big-game hunting and target practice.

Miller said that nearly 500 scientific papers have documented the dangers to wildlife from lead exposure. In the United States, he said, 3,000 tons of lead are shot into the environment by hunters each year, with another 80,000 tons released at shooting ranges. “There are safe, available alternatives to lead ammo for all hunting and shooting sports, so there’s no reasoning for this poisoning to go on,� Miller said.

In a move opposed by many hunters, Jordan, along with 100 organizations in 35 states, wants the Environmental Protection Agency to ban or severely limit the use of toxic lead in hunting ammunition.

In a petition filed with the agency last week, the groups said that up to 20 million birds in the United States die each year after nibbling on bullet fragments, including swans, golden and bald eagles, mourning doves, California condors and more than 70 other species.

For Jeff Miller, a conservation advocate at the Center for Biological Diversity, it’s a “national tragedy� and one that easily could be prevented. The nonprofit group, headquartered in Tucson, Ariz., is leading the effort for a federal clampdown, saying it’s a logical progression after the EPA moved to reduce lead exposure in drinking water, paint, gasoline, toys and

batteries.

While acknowledging that it would be more costly, they want hunters to use non-toxic ammunition. Miller said that non-lead bullets are now available in all 50 states, with more than a dozen manufacturers marketing hundreds of varieties and calibers made from copper, steel and other metals. The proposed ban would not apply to ammunition used by law enforcement or the military.

Republican Rep. Doc Hastings of Washington state, chairman of the House Natural Resources Committee and an opponent of the proposed ban, called it a “job-destroying effort� and said proponents of the ban have turned to the EPA “because they know that Congress will protect the Second Amendment and sportsmen’s interests� in defending the use of traditional ammunition. “The ban on lead bullets

said the work helps some inmates learn life and job skills, and it gives then a sense of achievement. “It allows them to get out in the field, instead of just being incarcerated,� Espinoza said.

Corrections staff carefully consider which inmates

should be on the crews, Espinoza said. For example, people who are serving sentences for property and substance abuse crimes might be candidates for the work crews, if they are not flight risks and do not have histories of person-on-person crimes.

its marketable properties and increase the amount of nonirrigated land inside its urban growth boundary.

Snead said that about five years ago, city officials set a goal to incorporate 250 acres into its urban growth boundary by 2027. Their road map to accomplish this goal remains uncertain.

Considering the type of land and its potential for industrial use are also important when preparing for future development. “We want to make sure that land brought into the UGB is suitable,� Snead said. “We don’t want an artificial supply of land.�

Jefferson County Business Park is proof that land supply and perceptions about fees aren’t Madras’s only economic growth hurdles. An overall shortage of financing and start-up capital available for aspiring businesses is a barrier affecting more than just Madras. “It’s just as difficult to develop in Madras as it is in other cities,� Snead said. “But we’re willing at any time on any day to sit down with developers and find solutions.�

Reputation belies facts Officials said the facts of SDCs make it difficult to understand why the city is saddled with a reputation for high fees. “The benefits of Jefferson County haven’t been articulated as well in the past,� said Jefferson County Economic Development Director Wayne Pearson. “We need to be as transparent as possible. It’s really a matter of communication.�

Pearson said that other factors, such as land supply, have hampered economic development in recent years.

Among the suggestions made by EDCO to Madras in its recent annual report were that the city create a map of all

Irrigated land Pearson said obtaining land for industrial development in a highly agricultural region is part of the struggle.

Irrigated land makes up about 60,000 acres of the county, which officials intend to preserve for farmland use.

Non-irrigated land parcels are also difficult to acquire in today’s market, primarily because many property owners aren’t willing to sell land for less than the purchase price, Snead said.

Sugar was a trove of knowledge in the boxing world

By Bruce Weber New York Times News Service

Bert Sugar, boxing’s human encyclopedia, a prolific writer and editor and a flamboyant and ubiquitous presence in the world of the ring, died Sunday in Mount Kisco, N.Y. He was 75.

He had lung cancer and died of cardiac arrest at Northern Westchester Hospital, his daughter, Jennifer Frawley, said.

The author or editor of dozens of books; the editor, at various times, of The Ring magazine and Boxing Illustrated; and a television and radio commentator who rarely turned

away from a microphone, Sugar was as voluminous a speaker as he was a writer.

Garrulous, opinionated, an eager conversationalist who was known to talk with just about anybody, he was an accomplished raconteur with a bottomless sack of anecdotes and an incorrigible penchant for wisecracks and bad jokes.

You could pick him out in a crowded room by his voice — a distinctively upbeat growl — or by the omnipresent widebrimmed fedora on his head and fat cigar in his mouth.

Sugar, who was elected to the International Boxing Hall of Fame in 2005, was not sim-

FEATURED OBITUARY ply a character, however. He wrote about the sport with swagger and panache, a prose style that carried the weight of expertise and that simply assumed the authority to bellow and bleat: “In the world of the early 1900s, still awash with Victorian gentility and doily-type embroidery on everything from manners and modes to conversation and conventional heroes,� he wrote to introduce an essay on the great black champion Jack Johnson, “the name of the heavyweight champion

stood out in stark relief, a man of swaggering virility who epitomized the turbulent yet proud surety of the populace of a nation destined for greatness.�

In the 1980s, he dared to choose and rank the 100 greatest boxers of all time, and 20 years later he revised the list.

In “Boxing’s Greatest Fighters�

(2006), he ranked Sugar Ray Robinson No. 1 and Muhammad Ali at No. 7. At No. 100, he listed Mike Tyson, whose chapter he began this way: “To perplexing questions

like ‘Why does Hawaii have interstate highways?’ and ‘Why did kamikaze pilots wear helmets?’ can be added another: What the hell happened to boxing’s kamikaze pilot, Mike Tyson?�

He wrote on other subjects as well: a history of ABC Sports, a biography of the escape artist Harry Houdini, a primer on horse racing. Nearly as immersed in baseball arcana as in boxing arcana, he edited several volumes of statistics and trivia.

Cougars split after first day of tournament

Kansas star leads AP All-Americans Kansas forward Thomas Robinson has even more in common with Blake Griffin now.

Not everything, though.

Robinson, who played through personal tragedy as a sophomore reserve, capped his junior season by being a unanimous selection to The Associated Press’ All-America team Monday, a day after leading the Jayhawks to the Final Four.

The 6-foot-10 Robinson averaged 17.9 points and 11.8 rebounds this season and he was a first-team pick by all 65 members of the national media panel that selects the weekly Top 25.

The last unanimous pick was Griffin in 2009.

“It’s a blessing to be named even in the same category as Blake Griffin,” Robinson said. “For that to happen, I’m glad all the hard work is paying off.”

Robinson did find some similarities between them besides being Big 12 Player of the Year.

“That man jumps out the gym. He looks like a superhero when he takes off,” Robinson said. “But we both try to be aggressive. He knows what he does well. I feel the same way.

I know what I do well.”

Joining Robinson on the first team were Jared Sullinger of Ohio State, the first repeat AllAmerica in three years, freshman Anthony Davis of Kentucky, Draymond Green of Michigan State and Doug McDermott of Creighton.

Davis received 63 first-team votes while Green, the lone senior on the team, got 53. Sullinger had 30, one more than McDermott. The voting was done before the NCAA tournament.

Bulletin staff report Rebounding from a morning loss to Ashland, Mountain View defeated Hillsboro 5-4 on Monday afternoon to end the first day of the Central Oregon Spring Break Tournament with a 1-1 record.

The Cougars (2-2 overall), who played as the visitors on their home field, rallied in the top of the seventh inning against the Class 6A Spartans, scoring two runs in their final at-bat for the victory.

Trailing 4-3 after six innings, Carrieann Elms led off the top of the seventh with a single to left field. The sophomore third baseman stole second and then scored and tied the game 4-4 on a Kylie Durre triple. Megan McCadden knocked in the go-ahead run with a sacrifice fly to center field that scored Durre. Mountain View reliever Shelbee Wells shut Hillsboro down in order in the bottom of the seventh inning to preserve the victory.

“Hillsboro’s a pretty decent team,” said Cougars coach Mike Durre, whose squad plays La Salle today at Mountain View in one of the tournament’s two consolation brackets. “We were up, then down, but it was nice to be able to come back and beat them in the seventh.”

Wells, Mountain View’s senior ace, struck out six in three innings of relief to earn the win. Durre ended the game

two for three with a double, a triple and two runs batted in, while McCadden added a hit and three RBIs. Ashland topped the Cougars 13-10 in both teams’ tournament opener earlier in the day. The Grizzlies used a six-run fourth inning to take a 10-3 lead that Mountain View was not able to overcome.

“We just had a couple of miscues in the fourth,” Mike Durre said. “A couple of errors, a couple of walks and some key hits by (Ashland) opened up the flood gates.”

Georgia Williams earned the win in the circle for the Grizzlies. Kylie Durre and Quincy Mate each doubled to highlight Mountain View’s offense in the Cougars’ first game.

Mountain View’s Kylie Durre catches a throw from the outfield to get out Hillsboro’s Emalyn Weislogel at second base during a Monday afternoon game at Mountain View High School in Bend.

• Bend resident Dagmar Eriksson traveled to her home country of Germany for this year’s Masters World Cup

NFL Concussions cut after kickoff rule PALM BEACH, Fla. — Moving kickoffs up 5 yards last season did exactly what the NFL sought, reducing concussions.

“The kickoff rule had an effect on the game,” said Rich McKay, chairman of the league’s competition committee.

“There was a 40 percent reduction in concussions on that play.”

The league repeatedly has said the change to kicking off from the 35-yard line was done solely for player safety.

McKay said Monday at the owners meetings it served that purpose.

But he admitted surprise that total kickoff returns dropped 53 percent.

For all plays, concussions were down 12.5 percent, from 218 in 321 games in 2010 to 190 in 320 games last season.

There was no Hall of Fame game last year because of the lockout.

agmar Eriksson has taken part AMANDA in her share of MILES cross-country ski races.

But until earlier this month, the 67-year-old Bend resident had never competed in her native Germany.

That changed with three races in the 2012 Masters World Cup, an annual world championship event for skiers age 30 and older, which was staged March 3-9 in the town of Oberwiesenthal in eastern Germany, near the border of the Czech Republic.

In her three races, Eriksson finished sixth (15-kilometer classic), fourth (10K freestyle) and fifth (30K classic).

“When I grew up in Germany, I didn’t even know what cross-country (skiing) was,” observes Eriksson, who was born in Leipzig and grew up in Hamburg. (After stops in locales such as Switzerland, Munich and San Francisco, Eriksson eventually moved to Bend with her husband, Nils, in 1985.)

In fact, Eriksson, a trim, cultured woman who speaks with just a trace of an accent, didn’t even take up the sport until 1995, the year she turned 50. She had decided to compete as an individual entry in Central Oregon’s popular annual multisport race, the Pole Pedal Paddle, so she learned to skate ski, kayak and cycle.

“I figured: ‘Big deal, you’re half a century old. I want to do something really special,’” Eriksson says.

And she hasn’t stopped hitting the ski trails since. The Oberwiesenthal event was her sixth Masters World Cup. Her first was in Italy in 1995.

“Now, when I think about it, two years of skiing is really nothing for cross-country skiing,” observes Eriksson, adding that she placed last in her age division in her classic race in that first Italy Masters World Cup. “But I had no expectation, and I had a lot of fun.”

Crook County takes wins over La Pine, La Salle

Dagmar Eriksson skate-skis on the Tangent Loop during a training day at Virginia Meissner Sno-park Sunday morning.

Bulletin staff report Crook County’s bats came to life at the Central Oregon Spring Break Tournament as the Cowgirls swept a pair of games against La Pine and La Salle on Monday at Stover Park in Bend.

The Cowgirls, who defeated the Hawks 19-1 in five innings before knocking off La Salle 12-10, scored 31 runs off 27 hits, 15 of which went for extra bases.

“One of our mottos is, ‘Do all the simple things correctly, and the game will take care of itself,’ ” Crook County coach Reggie Holcomb said. “(The girls have) been re-

ally disciplined at bat. And they’ve been aggressive on the basepaths.”

That aggression worked to La Pine’s detriment in the first game. Cowgirls starter Emily Benton pitched a completegame three-hitter, striking out five batters and walking one.

Crook County invoked the 10run mercy rule late with a sixrun third inning and a ninerun fourth inning.

Four Cowgirls had multiplehit games against the Hawks, including Benton, who hit a double and a triple.

“Em had a great day,” Holcomb said.

S B Basketball • Lodwick leads Washington State to CBI victory: Washington State’s D.J. Shelton blocked a last-second shot by Tray Woodall and the Cougars hung on to beat Pittsburgh 67-66 Monday night in Game 1 of the best-of-three College Basketball Invitational finals in Pullman, Wash. Mountain View graduate Abe Lodwick led Washington State (19-16) with 16 points.

In the first half, Lodwick, who also had seven rebounds and shot four for five from the threepoint line, scored 10 points in a 3-minute span as Washington State built an early 17-12 lead.

The second game of the series is Wednesday at Pittsburgh.

Football • Goodell might let Payton coach during appeal: NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell might allow Sean Payton to coach the Saints if he appeals his seasonlong suspension for his role in the team’s bounties program.

Goodell said Monday at the league meetings in Palm Beach, Fla., that should Payton appeal, he “probably” would let him continue coaching after April 1, when the suspension is to begin.

Goodell says he would expedite the hearing and his decision on an appeal. The commissioner also is waiting for recommendations from the players’ union before punishing any players for participating in the three-year bounty system that targeted opponents for big hits. He has discussed the bounties with NFLPA leader DeMaurice Smith.

• Rams sign WR Steve Smith: The St. Louis Rams signed free agent wide receiver Steve Smith, filling a pressing need. Smith, who had 107 receptions for the New York Giants in 2009, will be entering his sixth season. Last year he caught nine passes in 11 games before being sidelined by a knee injury.

• BCS: ‘Host of intricate details’ being discussed: BCS leaders say they are sorting through a “host of intricate details” about how college football’s postseason would work if major changes are made to the current format. A statement released by the 11 conference commissioners and Notre Dame’s athletic director after a meeting in Dallas on Monday said: “While no decisions have been made about the overall structure, our talks have entered the ‘brass tacks’ level.” No specific mention of a four-team playoff was made in the statement, but all the commissioners

have acknowledged that option is being discussed.

• Alabama extends Saban’s deal, boosts pay: Alabama coach Nick Saban has parlayed the Crimson Tide’s second national championship in three years into a raise and contract extension worth $5.62 million a year. The university’s board of trustees approved a two-year extension for Saban on Monday that will run through Jan. 31, 2020. He’ll receive $5.32 million in 2012 with a $50,000 raise next year and $100,000 annually after that. Under the deal, he’ll make $5.97 million in 2019.

Soccer • El Salvador’s late goal ends U.S. Olympic hopes: Jaime Alas scored in stoppage time as El Salvador ousted the United States from Olympic qualifying Monday in Nashville, Tenn., with a 3-3 draw. The Americans had to win to reach Saturday’s semifinals in Kansas City, Kan., and they led 3-2 on Joe Corona’s goal in the 68th minute. But Alas scored his goal off the hands off keeper Sean Johnson to stun the Americans, who missed the Olympics for the second time since 1976.

Horse racing • Senator pushes for national horse racing standards: U.S. Sen. Tom Udall is reviving his push for uniform federal standards for the horse racing industry following a New York Times investigation into horse deaths and jockey injuries at tracks around the country. The New Mexico Democrat says the newspaper’s findings paint a “very disturbing” picture of the industry in the United States and New Mexico in particular. The Times’ analysis shows five of the six tracks with the highest rate of incidents last year were in New Mexico. Udall says the sport has reached what he calls “an alarming level of corruption and exploitation” that is exacerbated by inconsistent state regulations.

Golf • Palmer released from hospital after overnight stay: Arnold Palmer is out of the hospital and back at work. A spokesman for the tournament named for the golfing great says Palmer was released Monday morning in Orlando, Fla. The 82-year-old Palmer had been hospitalized overnight in Florida as a precaution because of high blood pressure from new medication.

Red Wings return to playoffs The Associated Press DETROIT — The Detroit Red Wings popped off the bench and skated slowly toward goaltender Ty Conklin to congratulate him as if it was just another victory on Monday night.

Tomas Holmstrom scored two goals to help Detroit beat the Columbus Blue Jackets 7-2 and clinch a team-record 21st straight playoff appearance.

The Red Wings said it was easy to explain their reaction to extending their playoff streak that is the best active run in professional sports and three times longer than any current one in the league.

“I think the bar is higher,” Henrik Zetterberg said. “That’s another thing we don’t think about. We just go out, we expect to be in the playoffs, but it is a nice record and hopefully we will keep it going for many years.”

The NBA’s San Antonio Spurs are expected to extend their playoff streak to 15 years; the Philadelphia Phillies have been in five straight postseasons in baseball; and the Baltimore Ravens have been in the NFL playoffs four consecutive years.

San Jose, the only team other than Detroit to be in the playoffs every year since the NHL lockout, has the second-longest postseason streak at seven and that run is in jeopardy this season.

WOMEN’S COLLEGE BASKETBALL: NCAA TOURNAMENT

Stanford, Baylor first teams to make Final Four The Associated Press FRESNO, Calif. — Nnemkadi Ogwumike hoisted the regional championship trophy high into the air with both arms and showed it off for all the Stanford fans to see.

Not quite a Mile High. She hopes that comes next.

Ogwumike will end her sensational senior season right where she has the rest: at the Final Four.

In Denver this time.

Ogwumike made it happen on both ends of the floor with 29 points and nine rebounds Monday night despite constant double-teams, sending topseeded Stanford past No. 2 seed Duke 81-69 in the Fresno Regional final for the Cardinal’s fifth straight Final Four berth.

“This started before I even came to Stanford. I always wanted to be part of the culture,” she said.

“This never gets old. Not a lot of teams get to say that they’ve gone. For me to get to say I’ve been on four times, that’s a lot to ask for.”

PREP SCOREBOARD

Bears post tournament wins Bulletin staff report Hailey Chinadle went six for seven on Monday to help lead Bend High to a pair of softball wins Monday during the first day of the Central Oregon Spring Break Tournament.

With the two victories, the Lava Bears earned a spot in today’s championship semifinal at Bend High against Cascade.

The Lava Bears topped Corbett 8-3 on Monday morning before defeating Regis 7-3 in an afternoon contest at Bend High.

“Hailey had a monstrous day,” Bend coach Wade Kinkade said.

The Lava Bears (3-5 overall) logged nine hits against Corbett, and seven more hits against Regis. But the key to both games, according to Kinkade, was stellar pitching.

Bend freshman Megan Berrigan struck out nine Corbett batters in the Lava Bears’ opening game. Teammate Karlie Holmgren fanned five and only gave up four hits against Regis, despite being hit by a line drive off of her pitching hand in the fifth inning, according to Kinkade.

At the plate, Awbrie Elle Kinkade, Holmgren and Kendall Kramer all doubled against Regis.

NBA ROUNDUP

Indiana Pacers forward Danny Granger (33) shoots in front of Miami Heat forward Udonis Haslem in the second half of an NBA basketball game in Indianapolis, Monday. The Pacers defeated the Heat 105-90.

careless, you don’t like those turnovers. I know I had a few careless ones tonight.”

Miami (35-13) lost for the fourth time in eight games overall and is running out of time to catch Chicago (40-10) for the best record in the East.

The Heat were outrebounded 49-33 and scored just four fast break points.

The Heat refused to make a big deal about the losses.

“We’re fine,” forward Chris Bosh said. “We’re not even going to remember this a month from now, two months from now. We’ll be playing our best basketball. All we can do is learn from our experiences right now and just try to get back on time and everything will take care of itself.”

The Heat had won the previous three meetings this season, but the Pacers played with confidence throughout.

Indiana led by double digits for most of the fourth quarter, and Pacers fans stood and showed their appreciation during the final minute.

The Pacers closed the first half out in style. First, Indiana center Roy Hibbert dunked on James with a minute left in the half, then George hit a half-court shot at the buzzer to give the Pacers a 49-46 lead at the break.

Also on Monday:

Continued from D1 La Salle jumped on Crook County early in the second game, taking a 4-0 lead in the second inning. The game was tied at five apiece entering the top of the fifth when the Cowgirls exploded for six runs.

“La Salle, to their credit, didn’t give up,” Holcomb said. “They had bases-loaded situations that we had to play for runs in order to get outs.”

The Falcons scored two runs in the sixth inning and three runs in the seventh inning, but a solitary run for Crook County in the top of the seventh inning proved the difference.

Miranda Smith went three for five with three runs scored for the Cowgirls in addition to pitching the entire game for the victory. Taylor Walker went three for five with a triple and two RBIs. Crook County plays Ashland at Bend High today at 11:30 a.m. in the tournament’s championship semifinal round.

NBA SCOREBOARD

Pacers making mark in league, beat Heat The Associated Press INDIANAPOLIS — Welcome to the spotlight, Indiana Pacers.

With the Dwight Howard contract saga in Orlando, the emergence of Jeremy Lin in New York and team success in Chicago and Miami grabbing attention in the Eastern Conference, Indiana quietly became one of the best teams in the league.

The Pacers needed something bigger than just being steady to awaken the basketball world, and they got the signature win they have sought since the AllStar break, beating the Miami Heat 105-90 on Monday night.

“Our guys had a determination that they weren’t going to be denied tonight,” Indiana coach Frank Vogel said. “We’re competing at a high level. We’re looking forward to making a serious run at the end of the season and be one of the hottest teams going into the playoffs.”

Danny Granger scored 25 points, Darren Collison scored 20, and Paul George added 16 points and 10 rebounds for the Pacers, who have won four of five.

“It’s a confidence builder, showing that if we play the right way, believe in each other, play team defense, that we can be one heck of a team,” Pacers guard George Hill said. “Anytime that you get a win like this, you have to build off of it.”

LeBron James had 24 points and nine rebounds, and Dwyane Wade had 24 points and six assists for Miami. The Heat, coming off a 103-87 loss at Oklahoma City on Sunday night, lost by double digits in back-to-back games for the first time this season.

“Sometimes, you go through these spells in an NBA season and it’s a struggle,” Miami coach Erik Spoelstra said.

Miami committed 17 turnovers.

“Some of the turnovers you can live with,” James said. “We’re attacking, and guys are trying to make a winning play. But some of the ones where you’re just

THE BULLETIN • TUESDAY, MARCH 27, 2012

Native Continued from D1 And over the years, she proved to have some talent in the sport as well. She was helped along the way with instruction and coaching from area cross-country skiing luminaries such as Suzanne King, a former Olympian, and Justin Wadsworth, also a former Olympian and the current head coach of Canada’s national team. She is now coached by J.D. Downing and competes for XC Oregon. The student also has become the teacher, as Eriksson teaches cross-country skiing lessons at Mt. Bachelor ski area.

Eriksson did not return to the Masters World Cup until 2006, when the competition was also held in Italy.

She left with two bronze medals and a gold. “They say cross-country, you need 10,000 kilometers to become a good skier, so I wasn’t even close to 10,000 kilometers,� says Eriksson, who is now retired but formerly worked as a flight attendant for a couple airlines and as an administrative assistant

at Central Oregon Community College. “So that’s when I started getting better.�

Last year’s Masters World Cup in Vernon, British Columbia, at least in terms of results, was her most successful, as Eriksson won all three of her events in the women’s 65-to-69 division.

So she had high hopes heading into Oberwiesenthal. “I had higher expectations of myself because I did so well the year before, even though I knew it’s different every time,� Eriksson says. “And that part of the world where we were, I knew there would be a lot more eastern Europeans, from all eastern European countries. And they’re just more competitive and stronger and what have you. “They’re just tougher to compete with. I knew that, and still, you know, I was disappointed.�

Eriksson posted her best result in the 10K freestyle event, her second race of the championships, in which she crossed the finish line within 25 seconds of the third-place finisher, a skier from Esto-

COM M U N I T Y SP ORTS nia. Two of the women who finished ahead of Eriksson passed her, she says. “First, I was really, really disappointed, and in a way, I still am,� Eriksson says of her performance in Oberwiesenthal. “But I skied well, so I should be happy with that.�

To cap off her trip, Eriksson spent a few days in the Czech Republic city of Prague, about two hours east of Oberwiesenthal.

There, she drank in the architecture and marveled at the clothes. “I was just totally blown away how high-fashion the women were,� Eriksson says.

She will return to the Masters World Cup, though she is still deciding when. Next year’s event is scheduled to take place in Italy, the 2014 competition in Austria.

Whichever one she chooses, it likely won’t be Eriksson’s last, as she has no plans to slow down anytime soon.

Says Eriksson: “As long as I feel strong, and I’m healthy, I’ll be doing this.� — Reporter: 541-383-0393, amiles@bendbulletin.com.

• Central Oregonians capture state titles: Two boys gymnasts from Bend’s Acrovision Sports Center won all-around state titles this past weekend in the USA Gymnastics Men’s Oregon State Championships. The event was staged at the Multnomah Athletic Club in Portland.

Acrovision’s Blaine Davis took first among boys ages 10 and 11 in Level 7 with an all-around score of 91.6 points. He had the top score in all six apparatus events (floor exercise, pommel horse, still rings, parallel bars, high bar and vault). With a score of 87.6, Acrovision’s Travis Fields took top honors among boys age 12 and older in Level 6. He was first in floor exercise, parallel bars and high bar, and he tied for first in the still rings. Another Acrovision gymnast, Nate Jacobson, was second among boys ages 10 and 11 in Level 5.

In the girls Oregon state gymnastics championships for optional girls and Oregon State Invitational for compulsory girls, Acrovision’s Alexis Fischer won the all-around in the Level 4 Junior C division, Meagan Markle placed second in the Level 8 Junior (ages 14-15) division in the all-around, and Cameron Loxley was third in the Level 5 Child division all-around. By virtue of her finish, Markle will be one of eight gymnasts to represent the state in regional competition.

• Roughriders eke out another win: Bend Rugby Club received a stiff challenge from the Oregon State University Men’s Rugby Club but came from behind to claim a 32-28 nonleague victory Saturday at Bend’s High Desert Middle School.

OSU’s Beavers led most of the match, but the Roughriders converted a try and a penalty kick late in the game for the win.

Ryan Brown led the Bend side with a try, two penalty kicks and a conversion. Clint Vogelsang, Craig Branstad and Nate Rompel added a try apiece.

Coos Bay forfeited a league match the same day against the Roughriders, who are now 15-1 overall, 11-0 in the Pacific Northwest Rugby Football Union Division III standings. The Roughriders’ next match is scheduled for 1 p.m. this Saturday at High Desert versus the Gentlemen of Eugene Rugby Football Club.

HIGH DESERT MADNESS!

Jews to honor Passover Passover — beginning at sundown April 6 and lasting through April 14 — is a Jewish spring festival which commemorates the Exodus from Egypt over 3,000 years ago.

“It was at the time when Jews were slaves in Egypt under the Pharaoh and they were subject to really cruel and harsh slavery. The Pharaoh and Egyptians were punished with 10 plagues before the Jews were freed to leave Egypt,” said Mimi Feldman, co-director of Chabad of Central Oregon, a Jewish outreach organization.

“That’s what Passover is celebrating, the freedom and redemption of the Jews.”

Traditionally, the ritual observance of the holiday centers around a festive meal called the seder, meaning “order,” which prohibits leavened bread and calls for the consumption of matzoh, an unleavened bread, according to the Union for Reform Judaism.

The URJ says on the eve of the 15th day of Nisan in the Hebrew calendar, Jews read excerpts from a book called the Haggadah, meaning “telling,” which contains the orders of prayers, rituals, readings and songs for the Passover seder.

The seder has several scriptural bases which describe a meal of lamb, unleavened bread and bitter herbs the Israelites ate prior to the Exodus and which make up the seder plate. Also, there are three separate passages that command parents to tell the story of the Exodus to their children.

Three Jewish communities in Bend are participating in the holiday.

• Chabad Lubavitch of Central Oregon is hosting its Passover Community Seder on Friday, April 6. Reservations for the 7:15 p.m. event must be made by Sunday. To RSVP send an email to mimi@jewishbend.com or call 541-633-7991.

• Temple Beth Tikvah will host its annual Passover Community Seder, led by Rabbi Glenn Ettman, at 5:30 p.m. Saturday, April 7.

RSVP with Suzanne Schlosberg by emailing schlos1@gmail.com.

For more information call 541-388-8826.

• The Jewish Community of Central Oregon, Shalom Bayit, will hold a Passover seder on Saturday, April 14. The event will start at 4 p.m. and will be catered by Tate and Tate. Seating is limited; RSVP with Debra Brown by emailing hdjrown@msn.com.

For more information, call 541-385-6421.

... THE JUNIPER TREE!

• Bracket finishes with a twist

By Ben Salmon The Bulletin

I

n a field filled with flashy upstarts and relatively recent trends, in the end it was per-

haps the most deeply rooted part of Central Oregon’s culture — the modest but mighty Western juniper tree — that came out on top of The Bulletin’s High Desert Madness, a mock tournament to determine our region’s quintessential “thing.”

(You can find the first two installments of High Desert Madness in the March 13 and March 20 issues of Community Life, or online at www.bendbulletin .com/highdesertmadness.)

The juniper pulled upset after upset to beat out 63 other competitors for the title, topping one modern hotshot after another on its way to a monumental matchup against Mt. Bachelor in the finals.

There, in a battle of nature vs. nature, the juniper — undersized and almost certainly underrated, not only by opponents but also observers — used its many wily charms to topple the big hill.

The tree’s stout trunk kept it from being pushed around, while its thick, horizontal branches provided plenty of muscle against outsized opponents. Its rugged style, reflected in the endless furrows of its earth-toned bark, wore down sleeker, stronger competitors.

rian Tapia’s mother was deported last September after living in the U.S. for 21 years.

“My mom was just here, a single mother raising us,” the 20-year-old Bend man said. “I had a pretty good childhood. My mother struggled a lot but she maintained us.”

After being detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement in January 2011, Tapia’s mother was granted a few months to line up care for her three U.S.-born children. She now resides in Tijuana, Mexico, separated from her family.

“If it can happen to me and my family, it can happen to anyone,” Tapia said. “It was just one of those things that changed the route of my life. I’m going to school and studying political science. I want to get involved with the immigration reform and start a movement.”

Tapia’s experience will be shared in “Borderless Stories,” a photo and text exhibit that will display at the Common Table in downtown Bend starting April 6. The project highlights the struggles Latino immigrants face in Central Oregon. A small version of the exhibit can be viewed at the Downtown Bend Public Library through Saturday.

Incredible courage and love are two characteristics Sue Nell Phillips, of Bend, said she witnessed after she met and spoke with several undocumented immigrants from Central Oregon while putting together “Borderless Stories.” In her spare time, she volunteers with Latinos in the community. She wanted to share their stories.

“One of my goals was to say there are stories behind the headlines. Sometimes we don’t

look beyond what is portrayed,” she said. “I don’t think very many people are aware of the number of Latinos in Deschutes County.”

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, there are approximately 11,700 Latinos in Deschutes County, making up a little more than 7 percent of the population.

Phillips, 55, with the help of two peers — Mimi Graves and Terry Re — has been working on the yearlong project to give voices to those that go unheard.

“It makes them more underground and without a voice because they are undocumented. Most of them can’t risk speaking up,” Phillips said.

See Exhibit / E6

About 300 people filled out High Desert Madness brackets (both on paper and online) to see if they could accurately predict what would be named Central Oregon’s quintessential “thing.”

When all the points were tallied, the winner was Steve Koch and his family, who completed their entry together.

“We voted on our picks,” Koch said when reached at his home in Bend. “We had a few that were particularly more difficult for us. There were a few where it just kind of ended up in the hands of whoever was clicking the mouse.”

TV & M ‘Whitechapel’is back and as good as before “ W h itechapel�

10 p.m., Wednesday, BBC America

By Tish Wells McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Viewers always wonder if a series will be as good the second time around.

In the case of BBC America’s “Whitechapel,� it is.

This intriguing British police procedural show returns Wednesday with a new story torn from very old headlines — the 1812 Ratcliff Highway murders.

In the opening two-part episode, the upper-crust Detective Inspector Joseph Chandler (Rupert Penry-Jones) asks his Detective Sergeant Ray Miles (Ray Davis), a grizzled veteran of the office, “What if you could have 200 years of experience? What kind of detective could you be?� Miles retorts he’d be looking forward to retirement.

Chandler hires a historical researcher, an amateur crime historian named Edward Buchan (Steve Pemberton), whose excessive enthusiasm will let him work cheap “for tea and biscuits,� Chandler says in trying to sell the idea to his wary second-in-command.

The police squad first met Buchan during the first series while dealing with copycat Jack the Ripper killings.

Now, the first murders happen in locked stores. They’re followed by others in locked houses. The details reference the Ratcliff Highway murders, where the uncommon element was that the murders happened behind locked doors in homes and not in the street, which was more common at the time. This, along with the lurid tabloid newspapers of

the early 1800s in England, terrified the populace.

Part of the pleasure of watching “Whitechapel� is that it reaches back into history and shows how far modern police work has improved.

When — after chasing several red herrings — Chandler and company discover the killer and solve the crimes, it’s as much solved by psychology as by knocking on or down doors.

Each character has quirks or phobias. Chandler’s uppercrust reticence hides a man with a neatness fetish who avoids dating. Miles worries that his wife of many years may be terminally ill — or something else. Buchan’s wild enthusiasm for his new job is cut down to size when his actions alienate the squad, making his boss, Chandler, a laughing stock. Never a good career move.

One of the more amusing moments is when the histrionics of a fortune-teller clash with the calm of a modern policewoman who, very clearly, won’t put up with any nonsense.

You may want to see it a second time to see how well the series is constructed. As in all good murder mysteries, the clues to the murder have been there from the start.

A & A

Good treatment is available for teen who’s breaking bad Dear Abby: “Fed-Up Father in Minnesota� (Jan. 20) caught his difficult 16-yearold daughter smoking pot and is considering sending her to a place for “troubled teens.�

We sent our son to such a program on the advice of an education consultant, and he almost didn’t make it back alive. An untreated mental illness had been misdiagnosed as a behavioral problem, and his illness went from bad to worse.

You gave the right advice.

Get an evaluation from a reputable clinic or mental health professional, then look for options as close to home as possible. Adolescence is not forever. Parents need to hang on and not be lured into thinking there’s a magical solution. — Ann in Chapel Hill, N.C. Dear Ann: I advised “FedUp� to have a psychologist identify what’s troubling his daughter, and that sending her away should be only a last resort. Readers were eager to comment: Dear Abby: “Fed-Up� should consider an intervention like the Scared Straight program.

Teens are shown where their bad behavior leads, tour a prison and see inmates serving time for similar conduct.

The inmates also share their stories in an effort to turn the teens’ lives around. Sometimes a rude awakening is the answer for a young person traveling down the wrong path. — Brittany in the South Dear Abby: I was sent to boarding school because I was acting out and probably on my way to bigger troubles.

While there, I was exposed to more than I’d ever been at home. There were poorly supervised kids engaged in sexual activity, every recreational drug imaginable and free-flowing alcohol. I survived, but had the good sense to tell my parents and didn’t

DEAR ABBY return for a second year.

What worked for me was attentive parents and a good therapist who provided me a safe, constructive way to sort out my issues. — Boarding School Survivor Dear Abby: “Fed-Up� said the problem with his daughter started when he married his second wife. There are obviously issues between his wife and daughter that need resolving. Shipping the girl off won’t fix them.

My stepfather was abusive to me and my brother, but our busy working mom didn’t believe us. My brother began having behavioral problems at school and at home, so Mom gave in to our stepfather’s suggestion to send him to military school in another state.

My brother never forgave Mom for it. He left home at 17, and they have been estranged for 33 years. It is my mother’s biggest single regret. — Mary Kate in Illinois Dear Abby: I work for a nonprofit child-care organization that provides community-based services to families struggling with this situation.

We tailor services to meet the specific needs of a family in their home environment, providing interventions without the disruption of out-of-home placement.

Professional staff assess the case and develop a plan to resolve the issues, taking into account the family dynamic and home/school environment.

This kind of family mentorship is a step in the right direction to restore relationships. — Belinda P., Amarillo, Texas — Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Horoscope: Happy Birthday for Tuesday, March 27, 2012

By Jacqueline Bigar This year you work on communication to clear out confusion that often seems present.

Many people around you act in unexpected ways. You will need to step away in order to regroup and re-evaluate. You could find that anger is an issue that frequently emerges.

Use self-discipline when you become triggered. If you are single, you meet people with ease. Take your time before deciding someone is perfect.

You easily could meet a better match. If you are attached, take a workshop together to improve your communication. A class involving a mutual interest also could draw you closer. GEMINI knows how to stimulate your imagination.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH Express your thoughts.

Decide which way would be best to go. A meeting could confuse matters even more. A little selfdiscipline goes far. If you become triggered or angry, take a walk to gain perspective. Tonight: Where the action is.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH Do not be too sure of yourself, because you easily could make an error with funds, whether it is by accident or by someone taking deceptive action. Listen to your inner voice; don’t be reactive. Tonight: Treat yourself well.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH Keep conversations moving, and stay on top of what is going on. You have a strong sense of direction that emerges when dealing with several people. There also is no better organizer than you. Do not let a personal matter interfere with your plans. Tonight: As you like it.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH Know when enough is enough. You could be overtired. The unexpected occurs when dealing with a friend or group. Tap into your instincts. Detach rather than get angry. You will gain a new perspective and will handle the situation differently. Tonight: Play it low-key.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Zero in on what you want.

Sometimes you undermine yourself without intending to. You might say too much or have a knee-jerk reaction that could give you away. Be careful with your spending, as you easily could go overboard. Deal with

anger directly. Tonight: Where your friends are.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHH Step up to the plate. You know you have a lot to do, but you could become very upset or angry if you have to deal with a parent or higherup. Be careful. Words said are never forgotten, even if they are forgiven.

Diplomacy goes far. Tonight: Working late.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHHH Keep reaching out for new information. How you see a situation will change if you can detach and be less invested. You have difficulty understanding an associate or friend who seems determined to mess up your plans. Tonight: Let go of stress with friends.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHHH Work with a partner. You might be surprised by what goes on between you and another person.

Confusion surrounds a situation involving a child or an associate.

Learn not to judge so much; more information is forthcoming. Stay neutral. Tonight: Dinner for two.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHH Push yourself to finish a project, even if you could do something more interesting. You might be surprised how much excitement comes your way. A person you look up to, or need to look up to, could be in a very bad mood.

Relax. Tonight: Let someone else make the first move.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH Plunge into work without getting distracted. Someone around you might speak in a most confusing manner. Apparently, you two are on different wavelengths. You could have difficulty with someone at a distance. Trust your choices. Tonight: Let’s not forget to exercise.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH Let your playfulness show, even at work. Everyone knows it is there, yet it is subtle in your interactions. A partner could be quite upset and might need some time. Don’t get irritated. Tonight: Let yourself enjoy friends and family.

Make it OK to stay up late.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHH Stay centered, knowing what you want. Push comes to shove with a partner who could be quite difficult. Relax. Don’t let this person’s crankiness create an argument. Walk away, and control your feelings for now. Tonight: Happy to be home. Š 2011 by King Features Syndicate

Bracket Continued from E1 More than anything, however, the juniper prevailed thanks to its toughness, an intangible quality forged by hundreds and sometimes thousands of years in this region and this climate, where water is worth fighting for and the only thing more relentless than the summer sun and winter cold is the maddening unpredictability of the two. It takes a special kind of toughness to thrive in Central Oregon’s landscape, and the juniper is the ultimate symbol of life here.

THE REGIONALS No region more embodied the battle between old and new than the Slush Region, where the juniper slowed down the freewheeling flow of top-seeded roundabouts before debunking the “300 days of sunshine” myth to move on to the Final Four. Both urban planners and sun-peddling Bend boosters decried the results, unaware that trees — indeed, the world — did exist before they came along.

On the same side of the bracket, the hottest contestant in the entire tournament, beer, poured it on in the Dust Region, putting “Art” the statue in his place … on his bench at Wall Street and Franklin Avenue. (“Art” had been one of the biggest surprises of the contest, but when beer turned up the pressure, he froze.)

Beer then won its regional final by forfeit when floating the river didn’t show up. Because we all know beer and floating the river don’t mix.

On the other side of the bracket, chalk ruled in the Fall Region, where top-seeded bikes took on a very familiar foe, the Cycle Pub, in a contrast of styles. Not surprisingly, bikes raced past the well-lubricated but slow-creeping bar on wheels, setting up a match

against “fill-in-the-blank” fest — which won its Sweet 16 contest when dogs in Subarus got distracted by barking at people in parking lots — for a trip to the Final Four.

As expected, the regional final was an epic battle. Bikes attacked in relentless waves, but the fest had a tchotchke for every set of spokes, and then some. Their wheels crippled and their path to victory blocked by a stage, bikes eventually succumbed to the fests’ multifaceted style.

Last but not least, the Winter Region provided little in the way of drama, as longtime local recreational and economic juggernaut Mt. Bachelor towered over worthy but ultimately overmatched competitors like walking up Pilot

Butte and goose poop. Yes, goose poop’s wonderful run to the Sweet 16 ended right there.

Goodbye, goose poop. We will not miss you.

THE FINAL FOUR In the days leading up to the High Desert Madness Final Four, media attention focused so much on the impending, seemingly inevitable showdown between Mt. Bachelor and beer, you’d think this Final Four was actually a Final Two. And indeed, Mt. Bachelor kept up its end of the bargain, sending “fill-in-the-blank” fest packing up its tents and heading home.

Across the bracket, however, magic happened. Without question, beer is a behemoth

in Central Oregon, an industry that’s expanding rapidly with no end in sight. (Read: People will always like to drink beer.)

It has been the story in our region for the past few years, especially as the economy soured and locals grasped for green shoots.

But when you’re confronted with the next big thing, it’s easy to overlook those that have been there all along, and that’s how the juniper managed to sneak by both a relatively young rival, beer, but also a similarly savvy veteran of the local scene, Mt. Bachelor. When all was said and done, the juniper dug deep and found a way to win it all.

— Reporter: 541-383-0377, bsalmon@bendbulletin.com

Exhibit Continued from E1 “Borderless Stories,” depicts the challenges nine people and their families have faced in their homeland and the hurdles they’ve dealt with since coming to the U.S. in hopes of a better life. “They were so open and shared with me some intimate moments,” Phillips said. “They truly wanted their stories out there, to tell others about them.”

For example, Aracela Dominguez is a Bend teenager who arrived to the U.S. as an infant, brought over by someone who pretended to be her father for a day, she said. In the exhibit, Dominguez talks about the evening her uncle called her home in Bend from the Pacific coast of Mexico to say her aunt’s body was found partially buried — her aunt fell victim to the violence surrounding the drug war in Mexico. As an undocumented student with dreams of becoming a nurse, Aracela lives in fear of being deported, but works hard as she continues to seek legal status.

Phillips recalled being inspired and becoming more open-minded after interviewing subjects for the project. She was taken back by the response she received after asking why they stay in the country despite their hardships.

“I remember being surprised,” she said. “They told me they felt like they are part of this community.

Koch Continued from E1 If Koch recalls correctly, that was his 13-year-old son Cobe. Also in on the bracketology: 15-year-old daughter Sadie and mom Lizzi Katz.

That the family did so well on the bracket — choosing 45 out of 63 winners correctly, or 71 percent — is perhaps no big surprise, given that two of Koch’s businesses, Pizza Mondo and Kebaba, are very much a part of the fabric of Central Oregon life.

“Well, it’s my job to know

They love Bend.”

Photos for the exhibit were taken by Re, 61, of Bend. The project appealed to her initially because someone she knew was here illegally, she said.

“Knowing that family for all these years and seeing that the fear doesn’t go away is a sad thing,” Re said.

Some of the photos do not directly show the faces of those interviewed for the project. Images of toys, shadows, backs, feet and hands make up the visual aspect of the exhibit — those involved wanted to protect the identities of undocumented immigrants.

Phillips said she knows there are people on each end of the immigration debate.

“We know there are people that are not going to change their mind on anything, but there are others in between the issue,” she said. “We hope people will be educated by our work and realize how difficult and complicated it can be to be undocumented.”

what Central Oregonians are up to,” Koch said with a laugh.

“I tongue-in-cheek believe that I know what’s going on. It behooves me to know what’s going on. But I certainly don’t claim to be an expert.

“Our family has been here for a while, though, so we have a pretty good idea of what people are into,” he said.

The family received 100 Downtown Dollars for its efforts.

“We are psyched to spend our winnings,” they wrote in an email, “and to revel for this year in our status as the family with our fingers on the pulse of the Central Oregon scene. Yahoo!”

Seminar offers a bouquet of classes

By Liz Douville For The Bulletin

I know I am not the only one who has gone to bed super tired and then can’t fall asleep. You lie there, eyes wide open, thinking of all the things you wanted to do that didn’t get done. I had that experience recently and as the clock ticked closer to 2 a.m. I decided I had to get serious about sidetracking the “to-do” list and trying to get to sleep.

Naturally I turned to gardening. Where else would I find peace and calming thoughts any month of the year? What came to mind was a garden tour several years ago. It GARDEN was extremely hot and sunny.

Some attendees donned baseball caps for protection from the sun, and some straw hats were also visible.

Of course, instead of falling asleep, my mind went into overdrive and I thought, “Wouldn’t it be a kick if some year the OSU Master Gardener Spring Seminar encouraged everyone to design and wear a garden hat?”

It could morph into a goodnatured competition, with some free seeds or a plant for the first prize in different categories. Who knows, the Spring Seminar Garden Hats might end up running a close second to the hats at the Kentucky Derby or even the royal events in England.

Spring Seminar is only a few weeks away. If you are new to the area, the seminar is a day filled with gardenrelated classes, a fantastic lunch and great shopping with local vendors at the garden market.

Once you have attended your first Spring Seminar, chances are you will return every year. After you have attended several, you feel it is like a class reunion, visiting with gardeners you only see once a year.

This year, the event will be held on April 21 at the Deschutes County Fair & Expo Center. Information and registration is available at http://extension.oregonstate. edu/deschutes or by calling 541-548-6088.

A total of 16 90-minute classes are offered. Although it may seem that similar subjects are presented each year, every presenter has his or her own style, so there is always something new to be learned.

Handmade cloth napkins can add a bright and stylish accent to your place settings.

By Linda Turner Griepentrog • For The Bulletin

ressing up a table with colorful cloth napkins couldn’t be easier — and you don’t have to sew to create something divine. Whether you make them for everyday use or for a holiday get-together, you’re sure to

garner rave reviews without having to reveal just how easy it was to make these impressive table accents.

Fabric smart

Inside • Making no-sew napkins, step by step, F4

Not all fabrics are created equal when it comes to napkins, so look for something that’s washable and a natural fiber like cotton, linen or hemp. Synthetic fibers (like polyester) also work, but they tend to retain stains more than natural fibers.

If you’re into practicality, prints and dark colors hide stains better than lights and solid colors.

When you visit the fabric store, look for the fiber content and width on the top of the bolt, and check out both fashion and the home decor offerings, as they’re usually in separate departments.

Keep in mind that most no-sew napkins are a single layer, so the fabric’s wrong side will show. If this is a concern, look for fabrics where both sides

appear the same, or make a double layer napkin (see “On the Double” section on Page F4).

Size wise Napkin sizes vary greatly depending on their use. Cocktail-size napkins can be as small as 6 inches square and dinner ones up to 24 inches square. Since the fabrics you’ll be using come in two common widths — 45 inch and 54 inch — adjust the napkin size accordingly for the best use of the fabric.

See Napkins / F4

Getting edgy

Using no-sew techniques, you can make cloth napkins with three different types of edges: fringed, left; pinked, center; and hemmed. Napkins with fringed or pinked edges work beautifully for casual, everyday use, while those with hemmed edges can be brought out for more formal occasions.

It’s time to give those low shelves in the wine department a closer look.

That’s where there’s a lot of good stuff priced under $10 per bottle. It’s the “value” or “bargain” section, as stores call it.

We say, “Cheers to cheap wine!”

“The low-cost wines have really gotten much better in the last 10 years,” said awardwinning wine journalist George M. Taber in a phone interview from his home in Vero Beach, Fla. “Most wine stores around the country put the inexpensive wines on the bottom shelf, so if you’re walking through, keep your eyes on your feet,” he said with a laugh.

Taber’s book, “A Toast to Bargain Wines: How Innovators, Iconoclasts, and Winemaking FOOD Revolutionaries are Changing the Way the World Drinks” is a fascinating exploration of the thriving global business of bargain wines.

He devotes the second half of the book to helpful guides to more than 400 of the best buys he’s discovered in “under $10” red, white, rosé and sparking wines; plus, he recommends splurges in the $15 to $20 range. You won’t want to go wine shopping without it.

There are multiple reasons why low-cost wines are more available now. More grapes are being grown around the world. More wine, at all price points, is being produced, and technological improvements, as well as packaging innovations, have created a bigger and better selection of lowpriced wines.

Taber doesn’t list as many Pacific Northwest wines in his bargain guides as those from California and other wine regions, because Oregon and Washington bottles tend to be pricier.

“If you look back at the history, it’s understandable: You were very new territory, spread around a little bit, and into some specialized wines like pinot noir. It’s the nature of pinot, whoever makes it, that it’s more expensive, higher in demand and more challenging. They call it a ‘heartbreak grape,’” Taber said.

He told us he’s been especially impressed with Pacific Northwest bargain wines from Columbia Crest (Paterson, Wash.), Hogue Cellars (Prosser, Wash.), and Washington’s oldest winery, Chateau Ste. Michelle (Woodinville, Wash.).

F Wine Continued from F1

Available here Under $10 Northwest wines are available at Central Oregon grocery stores and wine shops. A larger variety of bargain bottles tend to be found in the bigger grocery stores.

“You definitely can pick up what we call a ‘daily drinker’ here, and lots of people shop here for the specialty wines they know they can’t get elsewhere,” said Jules Schmitz, wine and beer steward at Newport Avenue Market on Bend’s westside.

“We have a pinot noir from Arcachon Cellars out of Hillsboro, Oregon, that’s very food-friendly and approachable. Most people think pinot noir is $15-$20. This one is $7,” Schmitz said.

Andy Agudelo, wine steward at Bend’s eastside Safeway in The Forum Shopping Center, told us his best bargains are in Washington wines.

“Washington is producing some of the best values right now. Part of that is because of the glut of grapes they have, and the superior growing conditions. Oregon is known for pinot noir and pinot gris, the most expensive to grow and buy; plus, Oregon has tougher growing conditions. Unfortunately, that’s passed onto the consumer,” Agudelo said.

In addition to paying attention to conditions such as a glut of grapes, consumers can often find bargains by watching for sales at supermarkets, or by buying in bulk. Several stores offer a discount when customers purchase six or more bottles at a time.

“Wine can be daunting.

We’re raised in a country where wine is not a big part of the culture. You see hundreds of selections — where to start?

Tell me what you drink, what you like, what you don’t like, what kinds of foods you eat and what you want to spend.

I can find you a good bottle of wine at any price,” Agudelo said.

Next week: Easter side dishes go beyond potatoes

Bargain Northwest wines George M. Taber, author of “A Toast to Bargain Wines,” selects these wines as top bargains from the region: • Columbia Crest Two Vines label offers eleven varieties, $7.99 (Washington) • Chateau Ste. Michelle dry Riesling and gewurztraminer, about $9 (Washington) • Hogue Cellars varieties, about $8 (Washington) • Taber’s top ten Washington/Oregon bargain wine brands also include: Barnard Griffin, Castle Rock, Covey Run, Kirkland Signature (Costco), Pacific Rim, Red Diamond, Snoqualmie Jules Schmitz, wine and beer steward at Newport Avenue Market (1121 N.W. Newport Ave., Bend, 541382-3940), offered these picks: • Arcachon Cellars pinot noir 2009, $7 (Oregon) • Swallow chardonnay, $8 (Oregon) • Barnard Griffin fume blanc, $9 (Washington) • Arbor Crest Cliff House Red, $9 (Washington) Andy Agudelo, wine steward at the Safeway on Bend’s eastside (The Forum Shopping Center, U.S. Highway 20, 541-3836500), offered the following bargain wine picks: • 14 Hands Winery cabernet, merlot and chardonnay, $12.99 ($9.10 on sale) (Washington) • Snoqualmie Winery Columbia Valley syrah 2007, $8.63 ($6.64 on sale) (Washington) • Red Diamond Winery cabernet, merlot, syrah and chardonnay, $10.38 ($7.99 on sale) (Washington) • Maryhill viognier, $12.99 ($9.10 on sale) (Washington)

Thumbs up for “Two-Buck Chuck” Award-winning wine journalist George M. Taber has Trader Joe’s Charles Shaw wines (aka “Two-Buck Chuck,” though they sell for $2.49 at the Bend store) on his lists of favorite chardonnays and cabernet saugivnon/Bordeaux blends.

“With some 6 million cases now being sold each year, Charles Shaw should reach the billion-bottle milestone sometime in 2017. No brand of wine has ever come even close to that achievement,” writes Taber in “A Toast to Bargain Wine.”

Get what you pay for?

Taber told us the old days of expensive French wine being better than anything else are over. And if you live by the adage “You get what you pay for,” you’re in for a surprise with bargain wines.

“It’s unfortunate, but I really do think that attitude still exists that somehow spending $40 for a wine must make it four times better than a $10 bottle. It’s ludicrous that something can be four times better.

It never is; maybe a little better,” Taber said.

“A term used a lot in the wine industry is ‘Wednesday wine.’ The wine you drink on a Wednesday night might not be the same thing you’d serve at a dinner party on Saturday, but it’ll still give you pleasure, and will save you a few bucks,” he said.

What you’re doing when you buy bargain wine from the lower shelves is drinking the way the French do, Taber told us. “They call it ‘vin ordinaire,’ or ‘vin de table.’ They don’t drink Chateau Lafite every night. It’s very helpful to drink

these less expensive wines.

You’re helping to train your palate. Analyze them. Drink different types of wine.

“One of the great things about wine is the variety: You never stop learning, never stop experiencing new things, especially with some of these bargain wines. You’re educating yourself and becoming a better consumer at a pretty good price. You’ll make a mistake from time to time, but it’s a $5, $7, $10 mistake,” Taber said.

I have a theory about the pretzel bread craze sweeping bakeries, sandwich shops and brew pubs: We’re attracted to this new bread because it reminds us of our first love, the bagel.

Pretzels, pretzel bread and bagels are different from most other breads because they are boiled before baking. The big difference between bagels and pretzels is the solution in which they’re boiled. Bagels are boiled in water and maybe a little bit of malt syrup; pretzels are boiled in an alkaline solution.

It is simple enough to make an alkaline solution by mixing a mineral base into a pot of boiling water. German bakers have traditionally used lye, but if you are like me, you may balk at boiling your pretzel bread in the same chemical used to unclog the kitchen sink (if you’d like to try this, be sure to order food-grade lye from a reputable source). I turned to a weaker base, baking soda, to give my

pretzel dough flavor and color.

The dough itself was easy to make. After I let it rise briefly, I divided it and rounded the pieces into eight little rolls. Then I covered and refrigerated the rolls, to slow down fermentation and firm them up.

After poaching, I transferred them to a parchment-lined baking sheet and sprinkled them with some seeds and salt. I snipped an “x” shape into the top of each one to give it the ability to expand.

I split the warm rolls and used them for ham-and-cheese sandwiches, but they would also make great burger buns.

Combine flour and butter in bowl of electric mixer fitted with a paddle.

Mix on low until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add water, yeast, sugar and kosher salt to bowl. Stir several times with a rubber spatula until a rough dough forms. Remove paddle and replace with dough hook. Knead dough on medium speed until springy and smooth, about 10 minutes.

Place in an oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let stand 1 hour.

Dough will rise slightly into a dome.

Turn dough onto a lightly floured countertop and divide into 8 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a round by pulling the slack surface of dough piece downward toward countertop and pinching it together on underside. Cup dough round in both hands and rotate it several times to tighten round into a firm ball. Place rounds on a parchment-lined baking sheet, pinched sides down. Lightly drape with plastic wrap and refrigerate at for at least 2 and up to 24 hours.

Arrange rack in middle of oven. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Bring 4 quarts water to boil in a large pot. Stir baking soda into boiling water, 1 tablespoon at a time (it will bubble up). Drop dough rounds, 3 or 4 at a time, into pot, being careful not to overcrowd. Lower heat and simmer on one side for 30 seconds, turn, and simmer on other side for 30 seconds.

Remove with a slotted spoon, drain well, and place back on baking sheet, pinched sides down, at least 1 inch apart.

Sprinkle with pretzel salt, sesame seeds and/or poppy seeds. Use a sharp scissor, snipping twice, to create an “x” on top of each roll. Bake until reddish brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes and eat warm or let cool to room temperature. Rolls are best eaten soon after baking.

I’ve long adored hominy, the earthy dried corn kernels you find in pozole, the chili-laced Mexican stew. But until recently, I had never actually made it from scratch. Laziness is to blame. The canned hominy can be gummy, but it is so convenient, and so much easier to find in my neighborhood than the dried kernels, that I always end up taking that shortcut.

A few months ago, though, when I saw dried heirloom hominy for sale online at Rancho Gordo, I bought some. I knew that having it in the cupboard when a hominy craving struck was the best insurance against cheating.

Sure enough, that craving came on once I opened the package and saw the plump white kernels.

I had recently spotted a pozole recipe in a cookbook by San Francisco chef Mitchell Rosenthal, “Cooking My Way Back Home,” that just used pork shoulder, aka pork butt, instead of the combination of hard-to-find cuts (like pig feet and head) I’ve seen in more elaborate versions of the dish. His recipe gave me license to do the same. Pork shoulder is an easy cut to find and would make for a substantial stew.

Like dried beans, dried hominy needs a good long soak and a lengthy cooking.

But there’s nothing difficult about the process.

Really, all of the hard stuff has been done for you. Before they are sold, the whole dried corn kernels are treated with an alkaline mixture that helps remove the husk and makes the corn more digestible. Traditional cultures would use wood or other kinds of ash for this, and the process could take all day long.

So a little soaking and simmering are nothing to complain about.

Many pozole recipes call for the finished stew to be garnished with shredded cabbage. But after bingeing on cabbage recently, I decided to take a different route, and stirred slivered collard greens into the pot at the end of cooking. They turned silky and soft and offered a nice contrast to the chewy hominy, the brawny pork and the spicy thick broth.

For a colorful garnish, I stuck with the classic radishes, avocados, cilantro and lime wedges, which helped bring all of the flavors together.

And as for the dried hominy kernels themselves, they were legions better than the canned kind: firmer, sweeter and not at all gummy.

Inspiration for these sweet, nutritious, low-calorie vegetables can also be found around the globe.

Japanese cooks turn slices of kabocha into tempura.

Indians use sweet squash in curries, while Italians stuff ravioli with roasted butternut and serve the classic dish with brown butter and sage.

And Moroccans like to combine butternut puree with caramelized onions, cinnamon, raisins and fried almonds, or slowly braise grated or diced squash in meat tagines.

But some of the most innovative uses can be found in the Bay Area, where squash appears in everything from gourmet sandwiches to crab cakes.

“I love to use pureed kabocha or other winter squash as the binder, instead of breadcrumbs, in crab cakes,” says chef Jesse Cool, whose restaurants include Menlo Park’s Flea Street and the Cool Cafe at Stanford’s Cantor Arts Center.

Name that squash Acorn: This dark bluish-green squash may be the most common winter squash outside California. Most people add maple syrup, honey or brown sugar when they cook this squash.

Buttercup: A round, turban-shaped squash, buttercups have an incredibly creamy, dark-orange flesh and are consistently sweet and flavorful. Bake, steam or simmer them for soups, purees and pies.

Butternut: These smooth, tan squashes are prized for pies and roasting. Butternut squash have a creamy texture and sweet orange pulp that is particularly good in soups, stews and braised dishes.

Delicata: Elongated, with tender, pale yellow skin, the delicata squash has very sweet, pale orange flesh and an edible peel. Slice them thinly and roast until tender.

Kabocha: These squash have lots of seeds and not much meat, but the deep orange-colored flesh is sweet and smooth. Slices can be fried tempura-style, steamed, braised, baked or sauteed.

Roasting tips Roasted squash slices: Cut squash in half. Remove seeds, but leave skin on. Slice ¼- to ½-inch thick. Place on a parchmentlined baking sheet in a single layer. Drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and finely chopped fresh rosemary (or with pimenton, ground cumin or curry powder). Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until the edges are brown and crispy and the flesh is soft.

Roasted roots: Toss cubed winter squash and any combination of winter root vegetables — such as celery root, carrots, beets, sweet potatoes and red onions — with olive oil until well coated. Spread vegetables in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Season to taste. Bake at 400 degrees, turning occasionally with a spatula, until crispy outside and very soft inside, about 45 minutes.

popular appetizer when fresh crab is in season.”

Pureed squash cleverly mimics high-calorie cheese sauces at Oakland, Calif.’s Mua restaurant, where the popular mac and cheese, for example, looks exactly like the classic recipe but is considerably more healthful.

It’s actually mac and squash, chef/owner Sanju Dong says. Pureed kabocha squash is blended with a little cream and white wine for a sauce so rich and golden, no one misses the cheese.

Squashes make wonderful vegetarian entrees as well, says Udo Prambs, a chef and instructor at the French Culinary Institute in Campbell, Calif.

The German-born chef teaches students to simmer chunks of butternut and other squashes in vegetable stock with tomatoes, shallots and onions for a hearty stew.

salads, Prambs says.

But the most interesting take on the noble squash may be this: Roasted squash sandwiches have begun popping up on swanky restaurant menus, as well as at street food fests such as San Francisco’s Off the Grid.

“People weren’t sure at first,” says Shari Washburn, who co-owns Ebbett’s Good to Go, a groovy blue food truck that operates out of Emeryville, Calif. But a little encouragement — as in, try it, you’ll like it — did the trick.

Ebbett’s grilled cheese, bacon and roasted butternut squash sandwiches were a hit at Off the Grid, and variations on the theme — including one made with manchego, pickled red onions, aioli, thyme and radicchio — have met with similar success.

Washburn tosses peeled, thinly-sliced butternut squash with olive oil, salt, pepper and

red pepper flakes before roasting. The flavorful results add color and creamy richness to all sorts of delicious, gourmet sandwich fare.

And roasted squash sandwiches are among the most popular items on the winter menu at San Francisco’s Grand Cafe, says executive chef Alicia Jenish.

Jenish marinates thin rounds of delicata squash in a mixture of maple syrup, sherry vinegar, garlic, cayenne and olive oil, then roasts them until the flesh is tender and the edges are crispy.

Tucked into baguettes with warm goat cheese, arugula and sage pesto, it’s a match made in heaven.

The joy of getting a weekly veggie box delivered from the farm means always having the freshest, just-picked, organic produce. There is also the challenge of figuring out how to best use the bounty of vegetables and fruit.

Our CSA — Community Supported Agriculture — subscription is from Riverdog Farm in Guinda, Calif., near Lake Berryessa, and the first harbingers of winter arrived some time back in the form of two elongated, orange-striped delicata squash.

The next week, we received a red kabocha, and the week after that, an acorn squash.

And so it went, with more squash arriving weekly to take refuge atop the kitchen counter.

Before we knew it, what began as a still life with squash started to resemble Caravaggio run amok. Winter squash keep well, but we had to find ways to use them.

Our first thought was to roast them until soft, then puree them in stock for a quick soup, or season with butter and maple syrup for a side dish. But that was going to get old fast. So I put an SOS out on Facebook.

Most people responded with the suggestion to roast them until soft and turn them into soup or sweeten the puree with brown sugar or maple syrup.

But Trini Campbell, who owns Riverdog Farm with her husband, Tim Mueller, was quick to offer creative suggestions.

She likes to roast squash slices, wedges or halves and serve them as side dishes, sandwich fillings or pureed into soups, custards or pie fillings.

Make your own cloth napkins (no sewing necessary!)

WHAT YOU’LL NEED • Napkin fabric • Ruler • Scissors • Steam iron • Straight pins • Removable marker or chalk pencil • Pinking shears (for a zigzagged edge) • ¼-inch wide Steam-ASeam2 paper-back fusible web (for a single- or doublehemmed edge) • ½-inch wide Steam-ASeam2 paper-back fusible web (for a double pinked edge) Note: Pinking shears and Steam-A-Seam2 paper-back fusible web tape are available at fabric and craft stores.

GETTING STARTED Press the napkin fabric to remove any wrinkles and the center fabric fold before cutting the napkin squares.

Using a ruler, cut the fabric into the desired number of squares, keeping in mind that the edge finish will use up to ½ inch on each side of the square.

If you’re making fringed edges,

try to square the napkin to the fabric’s weave.

FRINGED EDGES 1. Draw a light line ½ inch from each napkin square edge.

2. Using a straight pin, pull out the fabric threads up to the marked line.

3. Repeat this process for each napkin edge. Note: A small notch will develop at the corners as you fringe adjacent sides.

4. Trim the fringe evenly, if needed.

PINKED EDGES Trim each edge of the napkin square with pinking shears.

HEMMED EDGES 1. Press up ¼ inch to the wrong side of each napkin edge, overlapping the corner folds.

2. Apply ¼ inch fusible web tape to the folded hems all around the napkin square, following the manufacturer’s instructions.

3. Press up another ¼ inch, securing the hem in place with the fusible web.

ON THE DOUBLE If you prefer to have pinked double-layer napkins so that the fabric’s wrong side isn’t visible: 1. Layer and smooth two coordinating same-size squares’ wrong sides together.

2. Along the edges, tuck a strip of ½ inch fusible web tape between the layers.

3. Fuse the layers together and trim the edges with pinking shears.

To create double-layer hemmed napkins: 1. Trim one fabric square 1 inch smaller than its coordinate.

Center the smaller square on the larger one, wrong sides together.

2. Fold and press the larger square with a double ¼ inch hem using fusible web tape as noted for the single-layer hemmed napkin. Overlap and fuse corners securely.

BEYOND THE PLATE These same no-sew techniques and edge finishes can be used to make coordinating table runners, basket liners or place mats.

Napkins Co n tinued from F1

On the edge There are three types of no-sew napkin edge finishes: fringed, pinked and hemmed.

Fringing removes threads from the fabric’s weave to form a decorative edge all around the napkin. It’s perfect for casual napkins and everyday use.

Pinking creates a small zigzag patterning, and requires special scissors called pinking shears. As you trim the fabric edge, the resulting cut forms this pattern, which is resistant to unraveling, especially on tightly woven fabrics. This edge finish is fast and great for informal occasions.

Hemmed edges, for more formal usage, can be created

Material issues How much fabric do you need? Determine the napkin size and the number of napkins you want to make. Remember, the edge finish will take off up to ½ inch per side. Then, check out this chart as a guide for fabric purchasing:

H B Last Lid replaces trash can cover

Choosing hardy patio furniture

Last Lid is a flexible replacement lid for a trash can.

The lid is an elasticized bonnet made of polyethelene fabric that fits cans in a variety of shapes and sizes. Cinching fasteners let you fit the lid snugly on the trash can, and a plastic zip tie keeps it attached to the handle so it won’t blow away.

The Last Lid fits cans up to 32 gallons, and can be ordered at www.lastlid.com or 800-210-8128. Two lids sell for $10.99 plus $5.99 shipping and handling.

We are thinking of buyQ: ing some new patio furniture but do not have room in the garage to store it over the winter. What are our options for nice-looking, comfortable furniture that can stay outside?

Susan Dovel of B&G Fireplace & Patio in Jackson Township, Ohio, suggested looking for 100 percent aluminum frames, which won’t rust.

Make sure the aluminum has a good-quality powder coating, which will hold up better to outdoor conditions, she said.

A:

Cast aluminum is often a good choice, because it’s heavy.

Dovel said another option is teak, especially Brazilian teak.

Teak will weather and turn gray, but its high oil content will keep it from breaking down the way many other woods will.

If the furniture has cushions, she recommended looking for good outdoor fabrics and fills that contain polyfill and are wrapped for durability.

Whatever kind of furniture you choose, she recommended investing in covers for winter.

The cushions should be stored indoors if possible.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Homeowners live in dread of the contractor’s phone call involving a “surprise.”

A nest of termites. A hidden crack in a foundation wall.

Kansas City, Mo., resident Anne Smith took one of those calls recently from contractors working on the Coleman Highlands home she and her husband had purchased as an investment.

The surprise?

A hidden room in the basement. A tall steel vault door.

Inside, a collection of approximately 40 empty jugs and liquor bottles, themselves awash in an almost ankle-deep tide of close to 1,000 corks, glass caps and stoppers.

And a plank of wood from a wooden crate reading “TJ Pendergast.”

At first glance, Smith said, the discovery seemed a window into Kansas City’s Prohibition past, a small corner of the vast empire ruled by Tom Pendergast, Kansas City’s machine boss during the 1920s and 1930s.

The truth might be more complicated, and the Smiths are curious.

“We are still trying to figure this out,” she said.

Since the contractors made their discovery last month in the neighborhood near 31st Street and Southwest Trafficway, the Smiths’ response quickly has evolved from “What?” to “How historically significant?” to “Now what?”

“We want to be respectful,” Smith said. “But we’re not sure what to do with all this. Local expert input is welcome.”

But first, some background.

Signs of a speakeasy, or a private stash?

From the time of Prohibition’s enactment in 1920 through its repeal in 1933, some in Kansas City chose not to honor it.

Federal agents routinely raided home distilleries or poured barrels of confiscated spirits into the Missouri River.

One Kansas City federal judge, Merrill E. Otis, commenting on the long docket of cases he had to hear involving small speakeasies and home distillery operators, once explained that he scheduled cases during night court session “on the theory that it is appropriate to try them when the moon shines.”

The caps and corks found around the bottles suggest imbibing was done on-site.

But Bill Ouseley, a retired FBI agent and author of “Open City: True Story of the KC Crime Family 1900-1950,” isn’t sure the speakeasy scenario passes the smell test.

“I don’t recall reading much about speakeasies or

Old liquor bottles recently were found in the basement of a house being remodeled in Kansas City, Mo. This bottle appears to have the name T.J. Pendergast on its label. Tom Pendergast was Kansas City’s machine boss during the 1920s and ’30s.

joints being run out of private residences,” Ouseley said.

“More likely the vault was put in by an upscale homeowner just for his own use, or when throwing private parties.”

Maybe. But that steel vault door suggests someone who had a budget.

Two contractors found the vault behind a sheet of stucco on a basement wall.

Rob Jones, a carpenter, said he and a colleague were taking down a bank of wooden cabinets when they came upon the stucco.

“I knew it couldn’t be part of the foundation,” Jones said.

A tap on the wall yielded — just like in the movies — a suspicious hollow sound.

They took down the stucco and there was the vault.

There was a first, larger room. Inside, the vault door was off its hinges, leaning against an interior wall. Then there was a second, smaller, room.

There they found the bottles, and all those caps and corks.

A colorful history Not long after they moved to the Coleman Highlands district in 2010, Smith and her husband began to hear unusual stories about the neighborhood. “I’ve heard various things about tunnels and Pendergast,” she said.

George Baggett, who has lived the bulk of his life in Coleman Highlands, wasn’t surprised. “There’s a lot of hyperbole about this neighborhood,” he said.

The neighborhood was platted on a bluff in 1907.

The legend of tunnels probably dates to the years when areas just to the northwest of the neighborhood were being mined for limestone, Baggett said.

Some homeowners complained the mining contributed to cracks in their foundation walls.

But the Pendergast connection is genuine, said Baggett.

For years Tom Pendergast Jr. lived in Coleman Highlands, just three blocks from the home with the vault.

Following his death in 1990 and that of his widow in

1996, their home was listed for sale. A long line of visitors arrived at the residence’s open house, eager to inspect its various curious features.

Those included an unusually high cyclone fence, a two-way mirror in the back door, a closet that appeared to have been used for storing jewelry, and an auxiliary generator powered by a sixcylinder Ford engine.

Baggett remembers the younger Pendergast as a neighbor who didn’t mind him and his friends riding bicycles past his home, but who clearly liked his privacy.

“That’s easy to understand,” he added.

Pendergast Wholesale Liquor Co. The biggest find in the Smiths’ discovery of a hidden vault may have been a single bottle bearing the brand of the Pendergast Wholesale Liquor Co. Its label, largely torn off, includes a “T” and a “J.” “You can almost see the ‘P,’” Smith said.

Pendergast, with partners, established the T.J. Pendergast Wholesale Liquor Co. in 1911. Upon Prohibition’s arrival, Pendergast shut the company down, said Lawrence Larsen, co-author of a 1997 biography of Pendergast.

The boss later claimed that he turned down a chance to sell his bonded distillery liquor for a $2 million profit during Prohibition after learning the buyers intended to divert 14,000 barrels and 1,500 cases to bootleggers.

“Any Prohibition violation would have brought in the feds,” Larsen said.

Pendergast went right back into the liquor business after repeal, and that was his main occupation until his 1945 death, Larsen said.

Smith insists the discovery is not a hoax inspired by the much-hyped 1986 stunt of television correspondent Geraldo Rivera who, on live television, opened a Chicago vault allegedly linked to Al Capone.

His discovery: a few empty bottles.

“I wish I had that kind of time,” Smith said.

This butterfly, called a Gulf Fritillary, finds the Mexican Flame Vine to be nectar-rich.

This is a compact vine that will only reach about 10 feet tall, and is drought tolerant once established. ... You’ll also like that it is not a plant hammered by pests. propagation.

The vine can be layered by sticking a branch or runner in moist soil. It will root easily and can be separated from the parent plant. It is also easy to propagate via the seeds that dry on the plant, reminding you of dandelions, or by taking cuttings. I like to use a little rooting powder for this method.

When you find your Mexican Flame Vine at the garden center or in a specialty catalog, go ahead and dig your hole about as twice as wide as the rootball. Plant at the same depth the plants are growing in the container, next to a structure of support for climbing, like a trel-

lis, arbor or pergola.

This is a compact vine that will only reach about 10 feet tall, and is drought tolerant once established. You will need to do a little training to get it climbing.

You’ll also like that it is not a plant hammered by pests.

The vine is great about reblooming, and if you need to do a little cutting back it will quickly send out more growth and another round of blooms. The blazing orange just screams to be planted in partnership with complementary blue flowers.

Here at the National Butterfly Center, we have them in several locations. Some are growing with the blue ageratum-like

Betony-leafed Mistflowers; others with the Butterfly Mistflower also known as Crucita.

Then we have them in an analogous color scheme with yellow lantanas.

All sorts of butterflies seem to like to feast on the nectar rich blossoms. Red-admirals, Fritillaries, Monarchs, Queens and Cloudless Sulphurs all visit on a regular basis.

Vines play an important role in the landscape giving a vertical dimension. It is sort of like hanging a mirror or picture on the wall indoors. The Mexican Flame Vine will be one of the most dazzling additions to your garden.

When you hear names like Mexican Flame or Orange Glow, this does a good job of telling you this is a flower bold and riveting in color. Considering it is a vine that also attracts hummingbirds and butterflies and packs a fiery orange punch, you have an award-winning plant.

To be honest, I think everyone should grow it, if for no other reason than its botanical name, Pseudogynoxys chenopodioides. Can you imagine what your neighbors would think when they ask, “What’s that gorgeous vine you are growing?” and you tell them the botanical name?

The Mexican Flame Vine is a woody tropical vine most references say is cold-hardy in zones 9 and higher; however, I have seen many doing just fine in zone 8. Almost everyone can enjoy it as an annual, and a lot more gardening centers in colder zones need to give you the opportunity.

Like the name suggests, the Mexican Flame Vine is native to Mexico and is not that picky about soil. I’ve grown it in acid soil conditions more fit for azaleas, and now I am growing it in alkaline soils more reminiscent of the desert. It is in the aster or daisy family, and you will quickly notice the similarities.

No matter where you live, you will love the ease of

definitive new masterwork, “Dirr’s Encyclopedia of Trees and Shrubs.”

If your aim is to become fluent in all things woody, here’s the more enlightening road to becoming a walking, talking wizard on roughly 3,700 species and cultivars of trees and shrubs: Hoist the nearly 7-pound encyclopedia off the shelf, grab yourself a pen for note-taking and start turning the nearly 1,000 pages.

Everything you will ever need or want to know about the long-necked or squat-andflowering beauties in your own yard, or down the lane

at your favorite woodsy someplace, is here.

Dirr’s book has been termed a “seminal work,” and in this case that’s not hyperbole.

With his two previous works, “Dirr’s Hardy Trees and Shrubs” (1997) and “Dirr’s Trees and Shrubs for Warm Climates” (2002), the longtime professor at the University of Georgia, known as the “modern father of woody plants,” was said to have “set the gold standard” for horticultural references.

In his latest tome, those two classics are combined and updated with the latest

Them Thar Scraps,” a session on composting and the many techniques that produce the rich gold for your garden.

• “Nip and Tuck for Your Trees” is a discussion and hands-on outdoor lab on how to properly prune trees. The presenter is Amy Jo Detweiler, OSU extension agent.

• We skimmed through last summer without any major local forest fires. Will we fare as well this summer? “Fire Resistant Plants & Landscape” presented by Stephan Fitzgerald, OSU Extension Service forestry specialist, will help us understand fire behavior and offer tips on creating an attractive fire-resistant landscape.

• Ornamental grasses are planted for their multi-seasonal interest. “Growing & Landscaping with Ornamental Grasses” in the High Desert will teach their proper care to keep them healthy and looking good.

• Learning how to garden smarter should be the goal for all of us. Two classes that will help lead us on that path are the offerings “Can Sustainability be Achieved in Central Oregon Landscapes?” and “Gardening for the Ages.”

• Eileen Obermiller, professional landscape architect and OSU Extension Service Master Gardener, will share

design principles and growing challenges with the class “4 Season Greenhouse in the High Desert.”

changes in plant names, new introductions and more than 3,500 photos for the reader to examine.

The thing that will, perhaps, make you never want to close the book is that, for all his iron-clad horticultural knowledge, Dirr is one of those rare professors who knows how to spin a yarn, whose passion for his trees is downright catching, and who never ceases to pull fascinating facts out of his pocket.

He is, aptly, as down-toearth and deeply rooted as the objects of his lifelong affection.

Proponents of organic lawn care are pushing to bring clover back to wide use as a lawn plant, mixed with more conventional turf grasses.

They point to clover’s benefits, which include its ability to withstand drought, thrive in poor soil and supply nitrogen to other plants.

White Dutch clover used to be common in lawns.

But once petrochemicalbased weed killers were introduced after World War II, that started to change, said Paul Tukey, founder of the nonprofit organization SafeLawns.org and author of “The Organic Lawn Care Manual.” The synthetic products got rid of the weeds, but they also killed the clover.

America fell in love with the ideal of a flawless grass lawn, and clover wasn’t part of that picture, Tukey said.

Clover came to be looked down on as a weed, something that marred a lawn’s uniformity and put children at risk by attracting bees.

Now, however, interest is growing in more natural ways of caring for lawns.

And that’s bringing clover back into the spotlight.

Nitrogen fixer Clover has much to recommend it as a lawn plant, said Melinda Myers, a horticulturist and author of more than 20 gardening books, including “The Ohio Lawn Guide.” Probably its biggest benefit is its ability to fix nitrogen, which means clover is its own little fertilizer factory. Clover takes nitrogen from the air, converts it to a form plants can use and eventually releases it to the surrounding soil.

In fact, clover is nature’s way of healing soil that’s nitrogen-deficient, Myers said.

That’s why it tends to move into areas with poor soil, often to the homeowner’s chagrin.

That nitrogen-fixing ability can go a long way toward eliminating the need to fertilize, Tukey said. Say you had a lawn that was 5 percent clover. If you left your grass clippings on the lawn after you mowed, the clover and the clippings together would supply all the nitrogen your lawn needed once the lawn was established, he contended.

That’s better for the Earth as well as the wallet, Tukey said.

Bringing in the bees Another of clover’s attributes is something of a mixed blessing: its flowers’ attractiveness to bees.

Bees — especially honeybees — are important pollinators of many food crops.

Clover supports imperiled bee populations, and it also helps vegetable gardeners by bringing bees to their yards, Tukey said. But some people fear bees, he said, and a small part of the population is severely allergic to their stings.

However, he noted that clover blooms heavily for only a couple of weeks a year, and the flowers can be kept in check with frequent mowing. The rest of the growing season, it blooms intermittently.

Clover has other drawbacks. Probably the biggest is its tendency to spread and form patches, especially in poor soil.

Those patches “might be an annoyance to some people,” said Joe Rimelspach, a plant pathologist at Ohio State University who specializes in turf grasses. “It’s kind of in the eyes of the beholder.”

Clover also doesn’t hold up as well to heavy foot traffic as grass. Myers said it might not be the best choice for a play area such as the ground under a swing set, although it should be fine in the rest of the lawn.

Clover also has deep roots that help it tolerate dry conditions, so it stays green long after the grass has turned brown. If it’s mixed in fairly evenly with grass, Myers said, it can keep a lawn looking good even at the height of summer, without the need to water.

A milk noodle soup Easter’s coming: Hop to it! for the New World and replaced it with skim milk.

When I tested her recipe, the only change I made was to use whole milk in place of the skim to give the soup a little added richness and body.

While this is not the exact soup Conley likely remembers, it certainly is a tasty and low-fat adaptation of an Old World classic — and one worth trying.

By Julie Rothman The Baltimore Sun

Carol Conley, of Bend, was looking for a recipe for milk noodle soup like her German grandmother used to make for her when she was a child.

Maggie Lauer, of Greencastle, Ind., writes about her love of this soup on her blog, the Other Side of 50 (other sideoffifty.com). Lauer recalls that when she was a kid, her mother RECIPE made this soup, which FINDER Recipe request Ann Carter, of Charlesis still one her favorite ton, S.C., is looking for comfort foods. a recipe that her grand“I’m certain that the recipe came over on the mother has lost for making boat with my German great- what she calls a Panama Cake.

One of my very favorite holidays is Easter, and every year I have a breakfast, brunch or lunch at my house for lots of friends.

I try to make each celebration a bit different from the year before. But there are some givens that must be included because guests look forward to them: butter molded into the shape of lambs or bunnies, chocolate rabbits, golden eggs (gold leafed), an Easteregg hunt, a glazed smoked ham, kielbasa and Easterinspired vignettes all over my house.

I am often asked where I find all the great Easter-y things I use to decorate the tables and counters. Well, the answer is everywhere!

If I see a charming stuffed rabbit any time of year, I will try to buy it. If I find a stack of great baskets to serve as vessels for the hunt, I’ll get them, even if it is December. When I see eggs in odd colors — chocolate-brown Maran eggs, for example — I’ll gather them, blow out the contents and save the shells for decorating (visit marthastewart.com/egg-dyeing for a how-to).

There are also specific stores that always seem to get charming Easterthemed objects in time for spring, and I will visit my favorites to make sure I add some more things to my collections. I don’t pass up an opportunity, no matter the season.

Depending on when Easter falls, I will pick daffodils and hyacinths and other flowering bulbs from my garden, or make a trip to the flower-market district on 28th Street in New York City to buy wonderful spring flowers.

Days in advance, I will plan the menu and create many of the objects and recipes that make Easter Easter in my house: decorated, painted and beribboned baskets for the hunt,

For a tasty dinner or appetizer, sink your claws into crab cakes

By Susan M. Selasky Detroit Free Press

If you ask 10 people for the best recipe for crab cakes, you’ll likely get 10 different answers.

One person I know uses the recipe on the can of Old Bay Seasoning — called a classic Maryland-style crab cake. It’s a mix of crab meat, mayo, mustard, Old Bay, an egg and parsley flakes.

Some recipes call for a few drops of hot red pepper sauce (Tabasco), Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, salt and pepper. To bind the cakes together, use an egg and mayonnaise, but mix these in a separate bowl and then add to the crab cake mixture.

Some recipes also call for dredging the crab cakes in bread crumbs, cracker meal or panko before pan-frying or broiling.

What to serve with crab cakes is another issue. Some purists say crab cakes need no sauce or perhaps just some lemon wedges. Many recipes call

for serving them with a Cajun remoulade — just don’t make it too spicy. You don’t want the crab to compete with many other flavors.

Crab cakes are easy to make and great to have on hand when you need something quick and easy for dinner or an appetizer.

The best ones use good-size pieces of crab, so use lump crab if you can. Lump crab is the

most expensive — about $16 for an 8-ounce container. Crab labeled “special” and claw meat is about $8 for an 8-ounce container. To cut cost, you can use a mix of all three.

I prefer broiling crab cakes.

You can pan-fry them, too, but use an oil like canola so it doesn’t compete with the crab flavor. Or for a richer flavor, pan-fry in clarified butter.

Crab Cakes with Herb Sauce Makes 8 crab cakes.

These can be made several hours in advance and reheated.

1¼ lbs lump crabmeat (or mix of lump, special and claw meat) 1 lg egg ¼ tsp salt

¼ tsp black pepper 1 tsp Old Bay Seasoning 1 TBS Dijon mustard ¼ C reduced-fat mayonnaise 3 TBS chopped fresh parsley

Flowers are one of the things that go into creating a great-looking spread for an Easter meal. Martha Stewart says she often “will pick daffodils and hyacinths and other flowering bulbs from my garden.”

1

⁄3 C finely chopped red pepper, optional ½ to 1 C cracker meal or plain panko bread crumbs Crab Cake Sauce (see note)

Preheat the broiler. Pat the crab meat dry and set it aside.

In large mixing bowl, mix together the egg, salt, pepper, Old Bay Seasoning, Dijon, mayonnaise, parsley and, if using, the red pepper. Fold in the crab meat, trying not to break up any of the chunks. Add cracker meal or panko crumbs. The mixture should be sticky but not too moist. Add additional cracker meal or panko crumbs as needed.

Shape the mixture into patties about ½ inch thick and about 3 inches in diameter. Place on a broiler pan and broil about 6 inches from the heat element until just lightly browned on top, about 4 minutes. Turn over and broil on second side until lightly brown, another 4 minutes. Remove from the broiler and serve with the sauce.

Note: To make a simple sauce, mix 2 tablespoons minced favorite herb, 1⁄3 cup reduced-fat mayonnaise and 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Season with a little sea salt and black pepper if desired.

If the celebration is breakfast followed by an Easter-egg hunt, I might choose to serve omelets, Polish sausage, eggs Benedict, platters of smoked fish — salmon, sable, sturgeon and whitefish — croissants, and homemade jams and jellies.

If we are going to have a brunch a bit later in the morning but before noon, I might make popovers filled with creamed spinach, poached eggs and bacon, baked ham and biscuits, a big fruit salad, and smoked-salmon canapes.

For a larger luncheon menu, I will make roast leg of lamb or a navarin of lamb, glazed ham, fluffy scones, scalloped potatoes and mounds of as-

I have two dining rooms in my house: a small, intimate room that seats up to 10 guests, which we share with a large canary cage and 25 Red Factor canaries, and the big brown sitting room off the kitchen, with a larger table where 14 can sit comfortably.

Because Easter food is so pretty, I often serve the meal buffet-style — hot food on the kitchen counters, and desserts on the servery counter. Guests can help themselves to firsts and seconds or even thirds, if they so desire. I just make sure there is someone to carve the lamb and ham, and someone to replenish the platters.

Tinted White-Chocolate Bunnies The tempering process of melting and cooling will result in chocolate with a smooth, shiny finish and pleasant snap.

Chop 3 pounds white chocolate with a serrated knife.

Place chopped chocolate in a dry metal bowl. Cut another pound of chocolate into larger

chunks, and set aside.

In a saucepan, bring 1 to 2 inches of water to a simmer.

Set bowl of chocolate over saucepan, being careful not to let water touch bottom of bowl.

Let chocolate melt, stirring gently with a rubber spatula, until it reaches 115 to 118 degrees on a chocolate thermometer (do not let thermometer touch bottom of bowl, and do not let any water get in melted chocolate). Turn off heat, and remove bowl from saucepan.

Add reserved chocolate pieces; stir until mixture cools to 78 or 79 degrees; remove any unmelted pieces.

Place bowl back over pan of warm water (do not turn heat back on); stir until thermometer reaches 86 to 88 degrees.

Immediately stir in food coloring until desired color is achieved; oil-based food coloring will give the best result.

Clamp molds tightly; pour chocolate into molds, and let set at room temperature until completely hardened, about 4 hours. Molds can be positioned upside down in saucepans, with rolled-up kitchen towels to hold them in place, while the chocolate sets.
