Investment scammer gets 6-year prison term By Ben Botkin The Bulletin

As Todd Surgeon was sentenced to six years in prison for his role in an investment scam, Deschutes County Circuit Court Judge Stephen Forte gave him some career advice for when he gets out. “You need to figure out a new line of work,” Forte said Thursday, as a courtroom Surgeon with about 10 of Surgeon’s victims watched. Surgeon, 41, of Bend, was also sentenced to four years of post-prison supervision for luring investors into putting money into a purported franchise of alternative medicine centers. After taking their money, Surgeon never followed up on his promises of providing equipment, leaving investors empty-handed. His crimes were committed through his business, Surgeons Inc. “You maybe once in a lifetime come across someone like him,” Deschutes Deputy District Attorney Van McIver said at the sentencing. McIver was quick to say that’s not a good thing, either. Surgeon had no regard for whether his victims were elderly, disabled or gave him their life savings, McIver said. See Scam / A4

POTHOLE REPAIR

Road crews start to fill in the gaps

By Erik Hidle The Bulletin

SISTERS — After giving their city manager a less-than-glowing review, the Sisters City Council showed there may be a path forward in repairing relations. The council unanimously approved a performance evaluation for City Manager Eileen Stein at Thursday night’s council meeting. And while the contents of the review show there is still a split Stein opinion among councilors regarding Stein’s performance, one of her biggest critics spoke in a positive light. Councilor Sharleen Weed, who declined to comment before the meeting, said she had met with Stein on Thursday afternoon and the two were jointly asking to “add in a line that a work plan be created on how (the review’s) goals can be met.” Stein agreed with the addition, saying she would develop the work plan in the next two weeks. The council agreed on the addition and unanimously passed the evaluation. This comes just a few months after a January special council meeting during which Stein’s employment was nearly terminated without cause. At the time, some councilors felt Stein was not performing up to par. But after an hourlong meeting in which residents and city staff spoke unanimously in favor of Stein, the motion was tabled in favor of first completing a performance review that began in December. The council then entered into two executive sessions, facilitated by Sisters Country resident and retired Judge Paul Lipscomb, to perform the review and discuss differences among council members.

Fewer women earn degrees in high-tech fields

States aim to curb patients’ burden for costly drugs

By Meagan Pant Cox Newspapers

DAYTON, Ohio — Fewer women are pursuing education in high-tech fields even though employers say they have more of these better-paying positions than candidates to fill them. A new report from the Institute for Women’s Policy Research found fewer women nationwide are getting degrees in the fields of science, technology, engineering and math, known collectively as STEM. “Women do make significantly more in these fields,” said Cynthia Costello, author of a report on increasing STEM opportunities for women. Women in STEM careers’ median earnings range from about $41,000 for engineering technicians to $71,900 for electrical engineers, while women overall had median annual earnings of $35,600 in 2009. “Their under-representation in STEM fields, and especially those you can move into with a community college certificate or degree, means that opportunities in those higher paying fields are closed off to them,” Costello said.

City of Bend employee Will Smith tamps asphalt on a pothole Thursday at Southwest Reed Market Road and Southwest Silver Lake Boulevard in Bend. Most potholes should be fixed by fall.

t’s pothole season in Bend. Beginning next week, crews will begin repairing potholes

in earnest, replacing temporary fixes with permanent ones.

Over the winter, potholes were filled with a coal mix that can cover a damaged area for a few years. With warmer, drier weather approaching, crews will start using a hot mix of asphalt to create a stable coat. Most potholes should be fixed by fall. Bend officials are uncertain of the number of potholes. “We do not count them; there’s no way,” said Virgil Breeden, Bend street supervisor. One thing is clear. Potholes drive

motorists crazy. Snowmelt, fluctuating temperatures and deteriorating streets combine to create a pothole. “The more moisture we have, the more potholes we will see on the streets,” Breeden said. “(The number of) potholes have gone up, though we’ve had a pretty limited winter.

Correction An information box that accompanied a story headlined “Topsy-turvy landing,” which appeared Wednesday, April 11, on Page A1, listed an incorrect weight for the Fairchild 24 C8C. The plane’s maximum gross takeoff weight is approximately 2,400 pounds. The Bulletin regrets the error.

The hemophilia drug that saves 7-year-old William Addison from uncontrolled bleeding costs $100,000 a year. His family’s insurance pays virtually all of it. But his mother, Victoria Kuhn, says she is terrified that the insurance company may start requiring patients to pay as much as a third of the cost of the drug. “I don’t know where we’d find $30,000,” said Kuhn, who lives in Falmouth, Maine. Spurred by patients and patient advocates like Kuhn, lawmakers in at least 20 states, from Maine to Hawaii, have introduced bills that would limit out-of-pocket payments by consumers for expensive drugs used to treat diseases like cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis and inherited disorders. Pharmaceutical companies would also benefit from such legislation because high co-payments discourage patients from taking their medicines. The pharmaceutical giant Pfizer has been helping the legislative drive behind the scenes, even drafting some of the bills, according to legislators and patient advocates. The bills aim to counter efforts by health plans to reduce the amount they pay for expensive medicines by making the patients pay a percentage, typically 20 to 35 percent, of the cost.

A ‘game changer’ for stroke patients By Patricia Anstett Detroit Free Press

DETROIT — A new generation of devices could significantly improve care for patients who have some of the most devastating types of strokes. The Solitaire flow-restoration device, which gained federal approval last month, is used in the brains of stroke patients much like an arteryopening angioplasty procedure for heart blockages. Robert Lee Burns, 73, of Clay Township, Mich., credits it with saving his life. “I thought it was over,” said Burns. “Maybe there wasn’t enough room upstairs for me yet.” A retiree who has worked on oil rigs and automotive assembly lines, Burns was one of the first five Michiganders to undergo the procedure. His surgery was Monday at St. John Hospital and Medical Center in Detroit. “This is a very promising new technology,” said Dr. Sandra Narayanan, a Detroit Medical Center interventional neurologist. “I think it’s going to be a game changer.” Doctors hope the new device proves to be more effective and easier to use than the first generation of products, which worked in a similar way, but weren’t as good at removing clots. Studies of the new device in Europe and Canada show that it significantly improved stroke outcomes. “We hope to replicate some of the results,” said Dr. Andrew Xavier, director of interventional neurology at Oakwood. Just a little more than a decade ago, doctors had few options for patients with the most devastating strokes that cause blockages in the brain. The addition of a drug called a tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) helped many people, but doctors say that as much as 40 percent to 50 percent of the time, the clot is too big to dissolve with the drug, which ideally is given within the first hour of stroke symptoms and no more than 4½ hours later. Earlier devices also were technically demanding to use and proved a challenge for all but doctors in high-volume practices who performed the techniques often, said Dr. Richard Fessler, chief of surgery for the St. John Providence Health System . The Solitaire device, made by Covidien of Dublin, Ireland, is minimally invasive.

Doctors thread a thin tube through an artery — typically in the top of the leg — up to the brain. Then they advance within that tube another instrument with a miniature, Slinky-like stent to the blockage. The stent expands, helping doctors remove the clot more easily. Burns, known to many in the Algonac area as Scrapper Bob because he salvages yards for scrap, was returning home in his truck Monday afternoon when he felt his right hand and leg go numb. He had not felt well that day, he recalled. “I thought, ‘My God, I’m having a stroke,’ ” Burns said. He pulled over to get his phone out of his pocket, but was too weak to retrieve it.

A man who saw him outside his home responded to his call for help. A computer tomography scan at St. John River District Hospital in East China Township found that he had a blockage that was so big it was unlikely it would be helped by tPA, Fessler said. An ambulance brought Burns to River District’s bigger sister hospital, St. John in Detroit. Burns already is taking steps, has slight numbness but no major paralysis or other stroke complications, and most likely will be able to go home soon. He should be able to get back to his life with a few weeks of physical therapy, Fessler said. “He’s doing beautifully.”

Accidentally flushed, $6,000 wedding ring found in sewer The Associated Press BOISE, Idaho — A Boise woman says she believes in miracles after sewer workers found the $6,000 diamond wedding ring she accidentally flushed down the toilet 18 months ago. Mechelle Rieger claimed the seven-diamond ring Thursday morning at City Hall in Kuna, bringing with her a photo and the March 2001 appraisal from the jeweler that made it. Rieger thanked city workers Travis Fleming and Carey Knight, who spotted the ring along with loose coins in a filtration basket while doing routine maintenance last week. Rieger said she freaked out and “just started screaming” when the ring accidentally fell in the toilet. She says there was more screaming involved when she got a voice message from a friend relaying the news about a ring being found in the sewer in her old neighborhood.

Catholic bishops push for religious freedom

Shooter gets day in court, new lawyer

The nation’s Roman Catholic bishops issued a proclamation Thursday calling for every priest, parish and layperson to participate in a “great national campaign” to defend religious liberty, which they said is “under attack, both at home and abroad.” In particular they urged every diocese to hold a “Fortnight for Freedom” during the two weeks leading up to the Fourth of July, for parishioners to study, pray and take public action to fight what they see as the government’s attempts to curtail religious freedom. “To be Catholic and American should mean not having to choose one over the other,” said the statement, issued by the bishops ad hoc committee on religious freedom. For more than half a year, the bishops have put the religious liberty issue front and center, but it has not yet galvanized the Catholic laity and has even further polarized the church’s liberal and conservative flanks.

Jury selection begins in John Edwards trial GREENSBORO, N.C. — After years of investigation, denials and delays, jury selection began Thursday for the criminal trial of former presidential candidate John Edwards. Edwards sat at the defense table as about 180 potential jurors filed into a Greensboro, N.C., courtroom. U.S. District Judge Catherine Eagles then asked Edwards to stand and face them. He grinned and nodded as the judge introduced him. The trial had been scheduled to begin in late January, but was delayed after Edwards’ lawyers told the judge he had a serious heart problem that required treatment. Compared with the quick-smiling candidate of four years ago, the former U.S. senator, now 58, appeared slightly gaunt in the cheeks but still had no trace of gray in his carefully parted hair. Edwards faces six criminal counts related to nearly $1 million in secret payments made by two campaign donors to help hide the married Democrat’s pregnant mistress as he sought the White House in 2008.

Deputy, another man shot dead in standoff MODESTO, Calif. — A sheriff’s deputy and another man trying to serve an eviction notice at a Modesto apartment complex were shot dead Thursday by a man who holed up and was surrounded by a battalion of SWAT teams. The standoff, still under way at 8:40 p.m., began right after the shootings occurred about 11 a.m. Dozens of neighbors were evacuated to a nearby church. About 6:30 p.m., the Stanislaus County Sheriff’s Department identified the deputy killed as Robert Paris, 53, a 16year veteran of the force. The other victim’s name was being withheld pending notification of his relatives.

Proposed rule aims to stop runaway cars DETROIT — Federal safety regulators plan to require all new cars and trucks to have a brake-throttle override system, giving drivers the ability to step on the brake to stop the car if the accelerator pedal sticks or malfunctions. The proposed rule, released Thursday for public comment, is aimed at preventing runaway-car crashes like the one near San Diego in 2009 that killed an off-duty California Highway Patrol officer and his family. That event and an outpouring of complaints about unintended acceleration prompted Toyota to recall millions of vehicles in the last few years. “America’s drivers should feel confident that any time they get behind the wheel, they can easily maintain control of their vehicles — especially in the event of an emergency,” Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood said in a statement. — From wire reports

SANFORD, Fla. — A tall, lanky redheaded lawyer named Mark O’Mara appeared in court here on Thursday, standing next to his newest client, George Zimmerman, one of the most recognizable defendants in the country but a man he had met for the first time only the night before at the county jail. Zimmerman, 28, has become known to millions as the neighborhood watch organizer who shot and killed Trayvon Martin, an unarmed black teenager, six weeks ago, but who was initially not charged with any crime — unleashing a nationwide protest. O’Mara, a criminal defense lawyer for nearly three decades, is perhaps best known in central Florida as a lowkey legal analyst on television who frequently commented on the trial last year of Casey Anthony, who was accused — and acquitted — of killing her young daughter. It was Zimmerman’s first moment in court, and he looked wide-eyed and grim in a one-piece blue-gray prison uniform. O’Mara said that his client would plead not guilty and that he would try to get him out of jail within the next couple

After weeks in hiding, George Zimmerman made his first courtroom appearance Thursday in the shooting of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin. Prosecutors outlined their murder case, saying the neighborhood watch volunteer followed and confronted the black teenager after a police dispatcher told him not to.

of weeks. Until then, Zimmerman, who was charged with second-degree murder on Wednesday, is being held in protective custody. A conviction could result

in a prison term of 25 years to life. After seeing his client on Thursday, O’Mara said in an interview that Zimmerman was distraught. “He is stressed and tired after long weeks of not being able to go out in public,” O’Mara, 56, said. Zimmerman and his family have maintained that he was trailing Martin because the young man appeared suspicious. Martin then disappeared from view, only to re-emerge, confront him and assault him, they say. In the fight, they contend, he shot Martin in self-defense. Florida’s expansive self-defense law, Stand Your Ground, was cited initially as a reason why no charges were brought. In a four-page charging affidavit filed in court on Thursday, prosecutors added little to the known facts in the case. But the affidavit contradicted the Zimmerman family account in at least one crucial respect. “Martin attempted to run home,” it said, “but was followed by Zimmerman who didn’t want the person he falsely assumed was going to commit a crime to get away before the police arrived.” “Zimmerman confronted Martin and a struggle ensued,” it stated. It also asserted that Zimmerman “profiled” Martin.

Syria quieter as cease-fire takes hold Colum Lynch The Washington Post

A North Korean soldier stands in front of the country’s Unha-3 rocket at the launch site in Tongchang-ri. North Korea fired the long-range rocket early today, South Korean and U.S. officials said, defying international warnings against the launch widely seen as a provocation.

Defiant North Korea fails in rocket test By Choe Sang-hun and Rick Gladstone New York Times News Service

SEOUL, South Korea — North Korea defied international warnings of censure and further isolation early today, launching a rocket that the United States and its allies called a provocative pretext for developing an intercontinental ballistic missile that might one day carry a nuclear warhead. But in what was a major embarrassment to the North and its young new leader, the rocket disintegrated moments after the launching, and U.S. and Japanese officials said its remnants fell harmlessly into the sea. After hours of silence, North Korea’s state-run media announced that the satellite the rocket had been carrying had not entered orbit, Reuters reported. But there was no explanation of the rocket failure from the reclusive North Korea leadership, which had trumpeted the event as a showcase of patriotic pride meant to exalt the 100th anniversary of the birth of the country’s founder, Kim Il Sung, grandfather of the new leader, Kim Jung Un. Only two days earlier, North Korea had elevated the grandson to the highest levels of state power. Officials from Japan, South Korea and the United

States, which had been monitoring for signs of the launching, condemned it as a belligerent act that endangered regional stability — even though it had failed. U.S. officials said food aid that it had planned to send to North Korea to help feed its malnourished population would be suspended. “North Korea is only further isolating itself by engaging in provocative acts and is wasting its money on weapons and propaganda displays while the North Korean people go hungry,” the White House press secretary, Jay Carney, said in a statement Thursday evening, which was Friday morning in Asia. The United States, Carney said, “remains vigilant in the face of North Korean provocations and is fully committed to the security of our allies in the region.” The consequences of such a public relations fiasco were unclear for the young Kim or the elders who have surrounded and groomed him, and the conspicuous absence of a prompt explanation for what had gone awry deepened the mystery. “Obviously, the rocket launch is pretty embarrassing for Kim Jung Un and North Korea,” said Tate Nurkin, a director at Jane’s Strategic Advisory Service, in an emailed reaction. “North Korea is all about ceremony and stature and grand, symbolic gestures.” One Obama administration official suggested that the failChange your mind.

ure might speed the North’s determination to conduct a nuclear test — the country’s third — “simply to show that it can.” Test preparations are under way, satellite photographs suggest. The only remaining mystery is whether the test, if it happens, would be designed to show off a new weapon made from highly enriched uranium, the newest fuel the North is experimenting with, rather than the plutonium bombs that it tested, with mixed success, in 2006 and 2009. In Japan, government officials said the three-stage rocket, which the North had said was carrying a communications satellite, appeared to fly for more than a minute after it was launched at 7:40 a.m. local time, then broke up at an altitude of 400,000 feet and tumbled in four pieces into international waters west of the Korean Peninsula. In Washington, the Pentagon said in a statement that the first stage of the rocket fell into the sea about 103 miles west of Seoul, and the remaining stages “were assessed to have failed and no debris fell on land.” It said the debris had never been a threat.

BEIRUT — A shaky truce took effect in Syria on Thursday, bringing a respite from the intense bloodshed of recent weeks and prompting the United States to step up pressure for a Security Council resolution that will oblige the Syrian government to fully comply with the terms of a U.N.-brokered peace plan. But with both sides to the conflict exchanging allegations of violations and no indication that Syrian security forces were preparing to relax their stranglehold on opposition flash points, there was skepticism about whether the lull would last. Activist groups said at least five people were killed when Syrian troops opened fire on demonstrators and on civilians returning to their homes, and President Bashar al-Assad’s government accused “terrorists” of carrying out two bombings and an assassination in which at least two people died. It was clear, however, that Syria was quieter than it has been for months, leading to cautious hope that the six-point peace plan proposed by the joint U.N.-Arab League envoy Kofi Annan may help end the bloodshed and usher in a negotiated settlement to the country’s 13-month-old uprising.

Campaigns plan maximum push to raise money By Nicholas Confessore New York Times News Service

Aides and leading donors to Mitt Romney are preparing a major expansion of the campaign’s fundraising efforts to prepare for a general election contest against President Barack Obama, with the goal of raising up to $600 million, according to several people involved in the discussions. Republican-leaning outside groups and Democratic-leaning unions are planning to spend hundreds of millions more. And Obama, who raised $750 million in 2008, is likely to meet or exceed that this year, according to people involved in his fundraising operation. Those goals make it virtually certain that neither party’s nominee will accept public funds for the general election or the spending limits that come with them — the likely death knell for a cornerstone of the post-Watergate campaign finance reforms intended to limit the influence of money in federal elections. “This is going to be the most moneyed election in the history of the United States,” said Bob Edgar, president of Common Cause, a group that favors greater restrictions on campaign spending. Edgar, a former congressman who was among the Democratic “Watergate babies” elected in the wake of the scandal, added, “There is a sense of coming full circle, of forgetting our history — the reason we installed a system for financing campaigns that didn’t rely on corporate or wealthy money.” Obama has already held more than 100 major fundraisers for his campaign, jointly raising large amounts with the Democratic National Committee, and Romney is moving quickly to catch up. His campaign is planning dozens of fundraisers through the end of June, high-dollar events that will feature Romney as well as the campaign’s top allies and other elected officials. The campaign is setting a goal of raising at least $1 million for most events featuring Romney personally. Those efforts will be aided by a new joint fundraising agreement with the Republican National Committee that allows Romney to command far larger checks than he has during the primaries. Under the agreement, guests at major Romney events will be able to write checks as large as $75,000 to a “Romney Victory” committee. About half of that sum would go Romney’s campaign or the Republican committee, mimicking the arrangement under which Obama, as an incumbent, has been raising money since last spring for his campaign and the Democratic National Committee. The remainder will be split among

Scam Continued from A1 “He takes all that they have and then he goes and takes more,” McIver said. Surgeon entered an Alford plea in March to 11 charges involving theft, fraud and unlicensed security sales. Originally, 45 charges were filed against him in the case. In an Alford plea, the defendant doesn’t admit guilt but does acknowledge there’s a likelihood of being found guilty if the case goes to trial. Surgeon gets credit for jail time served, which began after he was arrested in December 2010. The sentence requires Surgeon to pay restitution. An initial tally shows that Surgeon owes nearly $200,000, but that amount is likely to increase because the state is still contacting victims. Surgeon had a checkered past before the case. He served an eight-year prison term in Nevada for a conviction involving racketeering, embezzlement and securities fraud. Several victims testified, including Joanne Lee, who had invested about $49,000 and even moved from Bend to Eugene to run a franchise that

Obama defends Romney’s wife, says candidates’ families should be off-limits CHICAGO — President Barack Obama, addressing the swirling controversy over a Democratic strategist’s comments about Ann Romney, declared that “there is no tougher job than being a mom” and that the families of candidates should be off-limits. The president said he knows how hard mothers work from his own upbringing and from raising daughters with his wife, Michelle. “When I think about what Michelle’s had to do, when I think about my own mom, a single mother raising me and my sister, that’s work,” the president said in a Thursday interview at the White House with anchor Bruce Aune of KCRG-TV of Cedar Rapids, Iowa. “So anybody who would argue otherwise I think probably needs to rethink their statement.” Obama, whose wife became part of the political debate in the 2008 campaign and has been a target of criticism during her time as first lady, said pundits should limit their focus to candidates, and not “civilians” in their family. “I don’t have a lot of patience for commentary about the spouses of political candidates,” he said. Vice President Joe Biden called Hilary Rosen’s comments about Ann Romney “outrageous.” Rosen on Wednesday criticized Mitt Romney for touting his wife as a trusted economic adviser because, Rosen claimed, Ann Romney has “never worked a day in her life.” Rosen initially stood by her comments on Thursday morning, and then tried to clarify them by saying she was making the point that life is far more difficult for mothers who have to raise children and hold a job to make ends meet. — Michael A.

Republican state parties in Massachusetts, Idaho, Oklahoma and Vermont and later re-allocated to the most critical battleground states. “It’s going to ramp up dramatically,” said Woody Johnson, owner of the New York Jets and one of Romney’s national finance co-chairmen. “The response I’ve been getting, of people willing to max out on the victory side, has been very, very good, very enthusiastic.”

turned out to not even exist. She said a six-year sentence isn’t long enough because she doesn’t believe Surgeon will ever change his ways. Surgeon is a good talker who “could sell ice to the Eskimos,” Lee said, adding that her efforts to get her money back from him were rebuffed. “Trying to get money out of him is like trying to hold onto a wiggling bar of soap,” she said. Surgeon, for his part, said: “I am very sorry” and sought to explain his business efforts as sincere. “It was a beautiful dream,” he said. “I will make full restitution if I ever can.” Laurie Rose, Surgeon’s business partner, was also charged in the case. She got 75 days in jail after entering an Alford plea in January 2011 to charges of first-degree theft, aggravated first-degree theft, unlicensed sale of securities and the sale of unregistered securities. She also agree to testify against Surgeon if his case went to trial. At Thursday’s hearing, Rose asked for a sentence for Surgeon that focused on mental rehabilitation, saying that prison isn’t going to cure him. — Reporter: 541-977-7185, bbotkin@bendbulletin.com

Drugs Continued from A1 While some insurers have said the laws are not necessary because of the federal health care law, supporters say the state bill would supplement the federal law and take effect before 2014, when the bulk of the federal law is to become operative. In addition, they say, too much uncertainty remains about how the federal law will work and whether it will survive the challenge now before the Supreme Court. New York state passed the first law prohibiting such high patient payments in 2010. Vermont enacted a one-year moratorium that lasts until July 1. Maine’s governor, Paul LePage, signed a bill into law on Monday that would set a yearly cap on patient payments for such expensive drugs. Hearings on similar bills were held last month in Connecticut and Rhode Island. Delaware’s Health Care Commission just finished a study on the matter. And a bill that would cover all states was recently introduced in the House by David McKinley, R-W.Va. Insurance companies are pushing back, so some bills are dying, as in Washington state, or being watered down, as was the one in Maine. The insurers argue that reducing payments by users of the expensive drugs would raise premiums for everyone else. “There’s no free dollars in the mix here,” Melvin Sorensen, a lobbyist for insurers, said at a hearing in the Washington state Senate in late January. The controversy centers on so-called specialty drugs, a somewhat imprecise term that generally encompasses products that can cost tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. Such drugs account for only 1 percent of total drug use, but 17 percent of drug spending by private insurers, according to IMS Health. And costs are soaring as more such drugs come to market and as manufacturers raise prices. In 2010, spending on specialty drugs jumped 17.4 percent, compared with only 1.1 percent for other drugs, according to Medco Health Solutions, a pharmacy benefits manager that merged this month with Express Scripts.

Sisters Continued from A4 The product of those meetings was released this week in the form of a city manager evaluation that shows a stark difference in opinion on Stein’s performance. The review ranks Stein quantitatively across 30 different criteria, with 1 representing the lowest score and a 5 being the highest. In nearly every category, one councilor gives Stein the highest mark while another awards her the lowest score. None of the scores identify how a council member voted. A narrative following each section also fails to identify which comments were made by which councilor. Before Thursday’s meeting, Mayor Lon Kellstrom said some of the comments were concerning. “We have never had such radical accusations made before,” Kellstrom said. “These are serious accusations, and they aren’t frivolous concerns.” Kellstrom joined the rest of council in voting in favor of the plan, but did

Craig Dilger / New York Times News Service

Victoria Kuhn prepares to inject her son William Addison, 7, with a hemophilia medication, at their home in Falmouth, Maine. At least 20 states have introduced bills that would limit out-ofpocket payments for expensive drugs.

Insurers typically encourage patients to use less expensive drugs by classifying products into tiers with successively higher co-payments, like $10, $30 and $50. Generic drugs are usually in the lowest tier, preferred brand-name drugs in the second tier and other brand-name drugs in the third. But some insurers are now putting specialty drugs into a fourth tier of their own with extra high co-payments, or even co-insurance, in which the patient pays a percentage of the drug cost. About 14 percent of workers with insurance are in plans that have four or more tiers, up from 7 percent in 2008, according to the Kaiser Family Foundation’s 2011 survey of benefits. Patient advocates say that for some diseases, like multiple sclerosis, none of the drugs are inexpensive, making it impossible to avoid the high outof-pocket costs unless people stop taking their medicine and endanger their health. That discriminates against people with certain diseases, they say, and contravenes the whole idea of insurance, which is to help people pay for costly medical problems. Mark Merritt, president of the Pharmaceutical Care Management Association, which represents pharmacy benefit managers, said the real problem was the price of the drugs. The legislation, he said, was an effort by the pharmaceutical industry to “turn a pricing problem into a coverage issue.” Sharon Treat, executive director of the National Legislative Association on Prescription Drug Prices, an organization of state lawmakers, said

that was a drawback of the bills. Insulating patients from the cost of their drugs, she said, “gives the drug companies a free ride to charge as much as they want.” Still, Treat, a Democratic legislator in Maine, supported the bill in her state. And patient advocates say that while insurance is regulated, there is little they can do about drug prices. Drug companies often help patients with their co-payments, but patient advocates say those programs do not solve the entire problem. While pharmaceutical trade groups have expressed opposition to specialty tiers, Pfizer, which sells drugs for cancer, hemophilia and other diseases, has vigorously pushed the legislation, though it generally does not testify publicly. “I was approached by a lobbyist from Pfizer with the original language,” said Stacey Allen Fitts, the state senator who introduced Maine’s bill. He said patient groups contacted him only afterward. State Rep. Cale Keable, a Rhode Island Democrat, and state Sen. Joshua Green, a Democrat in Hawaii, said a Pfizer lobbyist provided or suggested language for the bills they introduced. Bryon Wornson, vice president for public affairs in Pfizer’s specialty care business unit, said the company was working “in partnership with the patient groups,” adding, “I don’t think we are doing anything that is not fully transparent.” The state bills — which would not apply to employers that insure themselves since their plans are not regulated by states — take various approaches.

New York’s law basically prohibits a fourth tier. At the time the legislation was enacted, no insurer in the state had a fourth tier, and it is not clear whether any would have started one had the law not been enacted. Maine’s bill initially prohibited specialty tiers. The law as enacted allows them, but sets a limit of $3,500 a year for patient co-insurance payments for drugs, Louisiana and Texas both enacted laws last year that do not limit out-of-pocket drug costs, but prohibit insurers from raising them in the middle of a contract year. Some state bills, like one introduced recently in California, and one that died in Washington, take the same approach as the federal law, but would have it apply earlier. The federal law requires insurers, starting in 2014, to cap total yearly out-of-pocket costs, including for drugs, at about $6,000 for an individual and $12,000 for a family. That is still a lot for many patients, though some say it would be better than nothing. “At least I can go, ‘OK, this is the maximum it’s going to cost my family,’ ” said Heidi Barrett of Mukilteo, Wash. She and her four children have psoriatic arthritis and her husband has ulcerative colitis. Three family members combined use about $13,000 worth of the drug Remicade, which is used to treat both conditions, each month. Because of a change in her husband’s insurance, the family will have to pay 10 percent of the drug’s cost starting next year. “I don’t know what we’re going to do,” she said.

not comment during council discussion. One comment in the review states, “as far as leadership of staff ... Eileen is a terrible role model. It appears that she encourages staff to provide faulty information in order to support her desired outcome.” The comments also claim Stein “manipulates situations and encourages, or demands staff to do the same.” In another section, Stein rebuts those claims. “Accusations, particularly those made publicly, by citizens — (and) councilors — about staff providing false information and/or changing stories has had a negative effect on staff morale. Despite those challenges, staff carried out council directives efficiently, positively (and) professionally; regularly reported on current plans, activities (and) issues anticipated to come before council; and implemented council priorities.” Councilors’ comments also refer to projects Stein “overlooked” but, again, the source of the comments is unattributed. Projects mentioned include a water rate issue that the council debated for nearly two years, finding a solution for a potentially unneeded recycle center and procuring tempo-

rary directional signs. Stein responds in writing in the document that “this was a more difficult year in terms of council-staff relations, with a few instances where lack of trust and respect were felt and/or expressed between councilors, citizens and staff, especially in regard to the water rate issue.” In a separate section, Stein further defends her and her staff’s use of time. “I continue to work at delegating more and more to the department directors while continuing to recognize the effect of their heavy workloads personally and their families. Given the (fulltime employment) reduction this year and the fact that citizen expectations have not abated, staff is being responsive to the best of its abilities while continually seeking ways to better manage the workload.” Unattributed comments further accuse Stein of complicating matters as a “purposeful diversion,” being “prickly and defensive” with the public and being defensive about her workload. Despite the accusations in the narrative, Stein’s final score in the evaluation works out to a 2.92 out of 5. And while most of the sec-

tions show scores across the spectrum, Stein scores high on intergovernmental affairs, with no councilor rating her below a 3. Kellstrom said he’s perplexed by that. “How do you square the rest of the evaluation with that rating,” Kellstrom asked. “If she is doing good in intergovernmental affairs then presumably she is doing well (in other areas) such as following council direction.” The review concludes with a section of “future goals and objectives.” The council finalized those goals down to nine points Thursday night. Most of the goals focus on councilors feeling they are receiving equal treatment from Stein. One goal calls for the creation of a council request tracking system. The work plan Stein is preparing is intended to fulfill each of those goals. Kellstrom said an additional review of Stein is scheduled in six months. — Reporter: 541-617-7837 ehidle@bendbulletin.com

Pakistan demands end to drone strikes New York Times News Service ISLAMABAD — In a rare show of unity, the government and opposition joined Thursday to present the United States with a list of stringent demands, including an immediate end to CIA drone strikes, that were cast in uncompromising words but could pave the way for a reopening of NATO supply lines through the country.

W B Bo ouster may unify communists in China BEIJING — Bo Xilai’s downfall and the arrest of his wife on suspicion of murdering a U.K. citizen may have a stabilizing influence on China’s economy by unifying the ruling Communist Party before a once-in-a-decade leadership transition. The party on Tuesday suspended Bo, 62, from the ruling Politburo, saying he was suspected of committing “serious discipline violations,” China’s official Xinhua News Agency reported. His wife, Gu Kailai, 53, and an aide were put in custody for suspicion of murdering British businessman Neil Heywood, Xinhua reported separately. Bo’s removal may foster more stability in the world’s second-biggest economy ahead of the 18th Communist Party Congress, said Ronald Wan, a Hong Kong-based managing director at China Merchants Securities. The congress later this year will pick a new party head and Politburo. Bo threatened to upset China’s consensus-dependent leadership if he remained in the inner circle, said Jonathan Fenby, China director of the British investment-research service Trusted Sources.

Mali swears in interim president BAMAKO, Mali — Twentytwo days after a military coup ended more than two decades of peaceful democratic rule in Mali, the leader of the country’s national assembly was sworn in as interim president Thursday. The official, Dioncounda Traore, a 70-year-old labor union activist who had been jailed in Mali’s earlier struggle against dictatorship, will lead a temporary government that aims to organize new elections within 40 days and guide the country back to constitutional rule. But he must also face the challenge of reuniting a country torn in two. During the chaos of the coup, an opportunistic uprising by Tuareg militiamen in the north seized strategic towns and declared an independent nation. “Mali has never experienced such difficult times,” Traore said in remarks after he was sworn in. “Its very existence as a nation is at stake.”

Vaccinations begin in cholera-ravaged Haiti A year and a half after cholera first struck Haiti, a tiny portion of the population Thursday began receiving vaccinations against the waterborne disease that has infected more than 530,000 Haitians and killed more than 7,040. Organizers of the vaccination campaign, who have been pushing for vaccinations since the epidemic began, cleared their final political hurdle this week when a national bioethics committee approved their plan to use all available doses of the cheapest cholera vaccine to immunize about 1 percent of the population. On Thursday, tens of thousands of slum dwellers in Portau-Prince took their first of two doses of the oral vaccine, Shanchol; tens of thousands of rural residents of a rice-growing community near St. Marc will begin this weekend. The second dose will be administered in two weeks. — From wire reports

After 2½ weeks of contentious negotiations, the main parties agreed on a parliamentary resolution that, in addition to the drone demand, called on the Obama administration to apologize for U.S. airstrikes in November that killed 24 Pakistani soldiers. It declared that “no overt or covert operations inside Pakistan shall be permitted” — a broad reference

that could be interpreted to include all CIA operations. But on the issue of NATO supply lines, the resolution specified only that arms and ammunition cannot be transported through Pakistan, opening the door to the resumed delivery of critical Afghan war supplies like food and fuel for the first time since the November airstrikes. And in practice,

arms and ammunition were rarely, if ever, transported in convoys through Pakistan. “Today’s resolution will enrich your respect and dignity; I assure you that we will get these enforced in letter and spirit,” Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani told Parliament, although he stopped short of declaring when the supply route would reopen.

“We know our obligations as well as the importance of the United States,” he said. Victoria Nuland, a State Department spokeswoman, praised the “seriousness” of the Parliament’s debate. “We seek a relationship with Pakistan that is enduring, strategic and more clearly defined. We look forward to discussing these policy recommendations,” she said.

What causes a pothole

Repairing potholes

Water from melting snow or ice seeps into the pavement and softens it. During repeated cold spells, the water in the pavement freezes and expands, breaking up the pavement, on and below the surface.

Ideally, crews remove debris, square the hole’s edges, ensure the sub-base is adequate and lay a new patch of pavement, according to Hardy Hanson, Street Division Manager for the City of Bend. But this takes time, and in the interest of tackling as many holes as possible, crews often just remove debris, fill the hole with a cold-weather pavement mix and compress it with a roller or tamper.

As the ice melts, it leaves gaps inside the pavement and moisture continues to soften it. As passing vehicles drive over the pavement, it begins to break up. 3 As more vehicles drive over the area, the roadway continues to erode and material is kicked out to form the pothole. 2

Pothole Continued from A1 Asphalt roaming crews, each with about eight to 10 workers, will use about 1,300 tons of material on pothole patching per year. The city sets aside about $62,000 a year for repairs. The roaming street crews prioritize bigger potholes in traffic-dense areas.

Residents can call around the clock to point out a pothole or to report a popped tire. Potholes also cost drivers. Motorists with newer models need to be wary near bumpy roads, said Bob Burks, owner of the Tire Factory in Bend. “The sidewall has shrunk considerably in the newer tires, so when you hit a bump it punches the wall up against the rim and it bends the rim,”

Burks said. “Now it doesn’t need to be a big (pothole) to either damage the tire or the wheel because the profile of the tires are getting so small there isn’t much cushion between the two.” Andy Hoard, an estimator at Precision Body & Paint, a collision repair facility in Bend, said depending on the impact, vehicles can sustain damage to the suspension, particularly in

the knuckles and tie rods. If a car is low enough, damage can occur on the rocker panels, bumper covers and underside. The results come with a price. “It can range from a tire and wheel at $100 into the thousands. Depending on the damage, it can be expensive as that,” Hoard said.

STEM Continued from A1 Women have been underrepresented in STEM occupations for the last decade, steadily holding less than a quarter of the jobs, according to the U.S. Department of Commerce. Although women in STEM careers will earn one-third more than those in other jobs, the number of women nationwide attaining STEM associate degrees has dropped 26 percent since 2000. They represent 27.5 percent of STEM degrees and certificates. The number of women earning certificates has fallen even further, by 50 percent during that time, according to the report. Women hold also a disproportionately low number of STEM bachelor degrees, according to the commerce department. STEM jobs are expected to grow at nearly twice the rate of other fields, the report states. But currently women who do earn credentials are more likely to use their degree in “traditional” roles, such as in education, which is nearly 74 percent female, according to the report. Costello said a lack of female role models could be a factor in the national decline of women earning STEM degrees. Costello said colleges need to offer students support through the financial aid process and provide access to child care. Students must also be actively recruited starting at a young age and through their first year at college. Community colleges will need more resources to implement strategies to recruit and retain female students, Costello said. “There’s more lip service paid to the importance of community colleges than there are investments that match up to that,” she said. “We need serious investments.”

UCLA issues an apology for mistaken admissions By Larry Gordon Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — Congratulations, you’re in! Oops, never mind. That was a mistake. In an email about financial aid awards, the University of California, Los Angeles, told 894 high school seniors last weekend that they were admitted to the highly competitive campus. Those students actually remain on the waiting list. UCLA is apologizing for the error. Officials, however, are not yet moving anyone into the admitted category. “We realize this is a particularly anxious and stressful time for students and their families as they try to make decisions about college admissions. We sincerely apologize for this mistake that may have led some of them to think they were admitted when they remain on the waiting lists,” said campus spokesman Ricardo Vazquez. The error occurred when updated notices of provisional financial aid were sent Saturday and Sunday to thousands of admitted students as well as to students on the waiting list for possible freshman admission in the fall, Vazquez said. The note to students on the waiting list mistakenly included the line: “Once again congratulations on your admission to UCLA, we hope that this information will assist you in making your decision to join the Bruin Family in the fall.” UCLA’s financial aid office on Monday sent out messages telling the 894 that they were not admitted, along with an apology. Vazquez attributed the mix-up to human error and said UCLA is looking into how the mistake was made.

2 Sudans edge closer to war By Robyn Dixon Los Angeles Times

JOHANNESBURG — Sudan and South Sudan teetered dangerously on the edge of war Thursday after South Sudan refused to withdraw its troops from a disputed border area despite calls to do so by the United Nations and African Union. Sudan, furious about South Sudan’s seizure a day earlier of its most important oil field in the town of Heglig, bombed a bridge outside the South Sudan oil town of Bentiu, killing one civilian and wounding four, officials said. The fighting between the two nations was the worst since South Sudan seceded from the north in July after a January 2011 independence referendum. The deepening conflict threatens to dash peace talks to unravel the tangle of disputes between the two neighbors, which engaged in two decades of civil war ending in 2005. With much of the region’s oil in South Sudan and the only pipeline to port routed through Sudan, the two countries have been at loggerheads over how to split the oil revenue, how much South Sudan should pay in oil transit fees and how the border should be drawn. Efforts to resolve the differences have all but collapsed since Sudan withdrew from the peace talks Wednesday. Leaders of each side on Thursday accused the other of wanting war. South Sudan President Salva Kiir told parliament that he would not withdraw forces from Heglig, saying that his country had been acting in self-defense after air and ground attacks from Sudan. Kiir also threatened that South Sudanese forces would take control of the disputed area of Abyei, which is occupied by Sudan, and demanded that the U.N. pressure Sudan to abandon the region. He said he did not want to see South Sudan plunged back into meaningless war, but that the country should prepare for it if Sudan repudiated the peace talks.

Conflict escalates In remote southwest Sudan, 30,000 troops of the Sudan People’s Liberation Army-North (SPLA) have been fighting government forces since June.

“I always say we will not take the people of South Sudan back to war, but if we are being aggressed like this we will have to defend ourselves,” he said. “I am appealing to the citizens of the Republic of Sudan, especially the mothers, not to allow their children to be dragged into a meaningless war.” Sudanese President Omar Hassan Ahmed Bashir said war was possible because of decisions made by South Sudan. “Our brothers in South Sudan have chosen the path of war, implementing plans dictated by foreign parties who supported them during the civil war,” Bashir told reporters. “War is not in the interest of either South Sudan or Sudan but, unfortunately, our brothers in the South are thinking neither of the interests of Sudan or of South Sudan.” Sudan vowed to mobilize its army to swiftly drive South Sudan’s forces back, raising the threat of a return to fullscale war.

The African Union and U.N. called on South Sudan to withdraw its troops. U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon has called for a presidential summit to end hostilities. Kiir told parliament that there had been several international appeals to him to command his forces to leave Heglig. “Last night I never slept because of the telephone calls,” said Kiir, who described a call from Ban. “He gave me an order that ‘I’m ordering you to immediately withdraw from Heglig.’ I said, ‘I’m not under your command.’ ” South Sudan’s invasion follows several cases of Sudanese war planes bombing South Sudanese oil wells in recent months, as well as bombings of border areas. Fighting between Sudan’s forces and rebels loyal to South Sudan has been raging along the border, with Sudan accusing its neighbor of arming and supporting the rebels. Last week South Sudan claimed to have shot down a

Sudanese fighter jet after two Sudanese war planes bombed South Sudan’s oil fields. Sudan denied that a plane was shot down. Both sides have been talking of war for months, as peace talks have foundered and the key issues of oil revenue sharing and the border have remained unresolved. In January, after Sudan commandeered several ships loaded with South Sudanese oil, South Sudan accused it of theft and abruptly turned off its oil production, which amounted to 350,000 barrels a day, equal to more than 95 percent of South Sudan’s budget revenue. Since then, relations have deteriorated sharply. The U.S. State Department on Wednesday condemned South Sudan’s seizure of Heglig, which it said increased tension to a dangerous level. It also condemned Sudan’s bombings of South Sudan. Britain and the European Union issued similar condemnations.

Facebook offers more disclosure to users By Kevin J. O’Brien New York Times News Service

Facebook, seeking to address criticism of the social network’s privacy practices, said Thursday that it would provide users with an expanded, downloadable archive of the many types of data on individuals that the company stores and tracks. In a posting on its privacy blog, Facebook said that it was expanding its downloadable archive feature, called Download Your Information, to provide greater transparency on the types of data on individuals that the company stores. The expanded archive, which Facebook said would be rolled out gradually to its 845 million monthly active users, goes beyond the first archive made available in 2010, which has drawn scrutiny from privacy advocates and regulators in Europe. Facebook is preparing for an initial public stock sale planned for May, which is expected to value the company at $100 billion in the most definitive valuation of a social networking business. Online social networks offer free services to users and make money primarily through advertising, which can often be targeted more effectively using the information the network has collected on them. The archive Facebook published two years ago gave users a copy of their photos, posts, messages, list of friends and chat conversations. The new version includes previous user names, friend requests and the Internet protocol addresses of the computers that users have logged in from. More categories of information will be made available in the future, Facebook said.

IN BRIEF Labor’s getting longer, study says A new study from the National Institutes of Health says women are now spending longer in labor than 50 years ago. For first-time mothers, the first stage of labor (before pushing) increased 2.6 hours from 3.9 hours to 6.5 hours (the women were already dilated 4 centimeters). The researchers compared births in the 1960s with births in the 2000s, an analysis of almost 140,000 deliveries. Researchers concluded the longer time is likely related to a change in delivery room practices. Modern births were more likely to include the use of epidurals to relieve pain, which can increase delivery time. Modern births, however, also were more likely to include the use of the hormone oxytocin, which is given to speed up labor. The deliveries in the 1960s were much more likely to use forceps and episiotomy, an incision intended to speed up delivery. Babies born in recent years also tended to be born five days earlier and weighed more than those in the 1960s.

Kids under thumb more likely to lie A study that appeared in a recent issue of the journal Child Development examined the issue of lying in young children. In this study, 3and 4-year-olds in West Africa came from either a strict, punitive school or a nonpunitive school. The children were placed in a room and told not to peek at a toy that was hidden. Most children could not resist peeking. When the researcher asked the child if they had peeked, most of those from the strict environment lied, while those in the less-strict school were much less likely to lie. The children from the punitive school were also likely to tell more lies to keep the deception going.

self-esteem By Alandra Johnson The Bulletin

elf-esteem was once thought of as something of a cure-all. During the 1980s and 1990s in particular, schools and parents encouraged children to believe in themselves, to see themselves as special and unique. If children had a good self-image, psychologists and educators thought, they would make good choices. Having positive self-esteem would help teens avoid pregnancy, resist drugs and alcohol, get good grades and on and on. Turns out that connection wasn’t true. Now that research has caught up with the self-esteem movement, it seems most of the supposed benefits didn’t pan out. In an extensive summary of research about

Fewer poor moms breast-feed Mothers who have low incomes are significantly less likely to meet their breast-feeding goals than more affluent women, according to a recent study from Michigan State University. Less than 2 percent of women in poverty who planned to breast-feed for a year were able to accomplish that goal, compared with 50 percent of more affluent women. The study authors believe this is due to the many obstacles lower-income women face when breast-feeding, including not having resources to turn to if breast-feeding becomes difficult. — Alandra Johnson, The Bulletin

smoking, drinking, taking drugs, or engaging in early sex. If anything, high self-esteem fosters experimentation.” Research also shows that having high self-esteem doesn’t lead to academic achievement or success, according to San Diego State University professor of psychology Jean Twenge, co-author of “The Narcissism Epidemic.” “Initially people felt self-esteem was key to success in life or something, and it’s not,” said Carl Pickhardt, a Texas psychologist and author of the upcoming book “Surviving Your Child’s Adolescence.” He believes having a good self-esteem can be a good thing. It just isn’t everything. “Self-esteem doesn’t mean you are a good person. You can do terrible things and have high self-esteem.” See Self-esteem / B6

L a u re n Stayer, a veterinarian at Bend Veterinary Clinic, says getting a pet should always be a family decision.

My child wants to get a dog. Q: How can I tell if my child is responsible enough to take care of a pet? Lauren Stayer is a veterinarian at the Bend Veterinary Clinic. She has been with the clinic for one year, and a veterinarian for three years. She has also worked with Bend Spay and Neuter Project and the Humane Society of Redmond. Stayer says getting a pet should always be a family decision, because it affects every family member.

“First off, parents should want to have the pet around,” Stayer said. “They should be on board with the idea because they’re most likely going to be doing some of the work.” Stayer says it’s difficult to know

for sure if a child is ready to take on pet responsibility, as each kid is different. She says it’s unrealistic to expect younger children to take on the full duties of pet care. See Question / B6

Study weighs impact of war deployments on military families By Mark Brunswick (Minneapolis) Star Tribune

MINNEAPOLIS — For the next four years, hundreds of military families in Minnesota will submit to wearing heart sensors to monitor the stresses they exert on each other and allow video cameras to record their interactions as part of an extraordinary first-in-the-nation look at the toll exacted by deployments to war zones. The research, which is being conducted by the University of Minnesota, is aimed especially at gauging the impact on families of Guard and Reserve members, who have made up nearly half of the U.S. forces sent to Iraq and Afghanistan over the past decade. That number is likely to have a ripple effect on family life for years as soldiers return home and resume their civilian lives. “This is an important window. Minnesota has an opportunity to really share incredible knowledge that will help the next generation of reserve component families,” said Abigail Gewirtz, an associate professor of family social science at the University of Minnesota.

TV SPOTLIGHT

By David Bauder The Associated Press

NEW YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Correspondent Natalie Morales ended up in tears when she put herself and her 8-year-old son through the same parenting test that â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dateline NBCâ&#x20AC;? is subjecting others to for a series that starts Sunday. Using hidden cameras and actors, the network set up scenarios to see if kids really follow their parentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; instructions to avoid strangers, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get into a car with a drunk driver or donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t cheat. The results will probably depress you. Time and again, children gave their names and addresses to a â&#x20AC;&#x153;strangerâ&#x20AC;? who had taken their picture and talked about putting them on TV. Promised free ice cream, they climbed into a van driven by an actor who could easily close the door on them and speed away. Parents watched it all on monitors nearby. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I would have lost my money if I put a bet on it,â&#x20AC;? one cringing parent said after watching a youngster climb into a car with an actor pretending to be drunk behind the wheel. For four consecutive Sunday nights, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dateline NBCâ&#x20AC;? will show the scenarios, which also test whether kids would cheat or discriminate if given the opportunity. NBC hopes parents and children watch the programs together and discuss them, said Liz Cole, executive producer of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dateline.â&#x20AC;? Four mothers who work at â&#x20AC;&#x153;Datelineâ&#x20AC;? came up with the

idea, an outgrowth of a show on bullying that aired last year. Not â&#x20AC;&#x153;newsâ&#x20AC;? in the strict sense, these types of shows tend to do well for newsmagazines: ABCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;What Would You Doâ&#x20AC;? series on â&#x20AC;&#x153;Primetime,â&#x20AC;? which sets up various social experiments, is particularly popular among younger viewers, which news shows have trouble reaching. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s reality TV at its best,â&#x20AC;? Morales said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;because these are truly teachable moments.â&#x20AC;? During the special on driving, several teenagers swear to their parents that they never text or talk on their cellphones when behind the wheel. Their cars were equipped with cameras for a few months, and even though they knew they were being watched, most youngsters exhibited the behavior they said they would never do. The teens were also set up with actors who pretended to be drunk or high on drugs. Despite the doubt on many faces, most let the actor grab the keys and get behind the wheel. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the power of peer pressure; too many youngsters go along with the crowd unless someone is strong enough to take a stand. In the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Datelineâ&#x20AC;? episode, a girl whose uncle was killed in a drunk driving accident was the strong one. Parents need to be persistent and specific with their instructions, the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Datelineâ&#x20AC;? experts said, and be mindful of their own behavior. If you

donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want your children to text and drive, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do it yourself. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve all had that moment when kids are throwing back what you should or shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do to your face,â&#x20AC;? Morales said. Aside from not getting into vans or giving out personal information to strangers, one tip â&#x20AC;&#x153;Datelineâ&#x20AC;? offers regarding strangers is for children to stand up and look straight into the personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s eyes. Confidence could scare away someone looking to prey on a vulnerable person. Watching their children via the hidden cameras is frequently nerve-racking and emotional. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Datelineâ&#x20AC;? dials up the drama, with Morales saying it â&#x20AC;&#x153;could be their worst parenting nightmare or their proudest moment.â&#x20AC;? She doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t shy away from the experience herself, setting up her son Josh in the experiment with the actor driving the ice cream truck. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard for me to watch,â&#x20AC;? she said, before the tears flowed. Did she cry because her son had learned his lessons well or forgot them? Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dateline NBCâ&#x20AC;? mystery to be revealed Sunday.

FRIDAY, APRIL 13, 2012 â&#x20AC;˘ THE BULLETIN

A & A

Family looks for gentle way to reduce visits from Pop Dear Abby: My husband and I have been married for 16 years and have two teenagers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Momâ&#x20AC;? died two years ago, and my husband is an only child. How can we tell my widowed father-in-law that we need a weekend to ourselves? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Pop,â&#x20AC;? whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 87, lives an hour away and drives to see us every weekend, staying until Monday afternoon. We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t doubt that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lonely, although he does play bridge twice a week and has dinner with friends occasionally. We love him dearly and would never want to hurt his feelings, but we long for a weekend for â&#x20AC;&#x153;just us.â&#x20AC;? How do we ask Pop not to visit? We believe heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still in mourning over the loss of his wife of 60 years. We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to add to his heartache. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Torn in Texas Dear Torn: You do need to talk to your father-in-law and set some boundaries. Accomplish it by setting a predetermined visitation schedule that allows you time alone with your husband and nuclear family without him being present. A way to get that message across would be to say: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Pop, we love you, but we need some time to ourselves, so letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s schedule your visits for twice a month. YOU pick the weekends.â&#x20AC;? Dear Abby: The neighbor above my apartment has a snoring problem. My bedroom is directly below his. Around 10 every night he starts snoring to the point that it sounds like an elephant lives above me. I have to sleep with my TV on and sometimes the radio. Please tell me what to do. Should I confront this neighbor? Should I complain to management? Or should I just live with it? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Fed Up in New Jersey Dear Fed Up: Write your neighbor a letter and explain to him there is a problem. He may not know that he snores.

DEAR ABBY If heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s snoring steadily, but stops for 20 or 30 seconds before starting again, it could indicate that he has a serious medical condition that should be discussed with his doctor. If the apartment above you has poor insulation, a carpet under his bed could muffle some of the sound. Playing a tape of â&#x20AC;&#x153;white noiseâ&#x20AC;? could block it out more restfully than your television or radio. Or, because adequate sleep is so important, you could ask a real estate attorney about the possibility of breaking your lease and leaving without penalty. Dear Abby: I am a 23-yearold woman who will graduate from college soon. I am looking to undergo a post-college makeover. I want to find some clothes that will work in the professional world, but also mix for more casual environments. Taking a recent college gradâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s budget for this into account, what signature pieces should a young female have in her wardrobe? And what tips do you have for building a great collection over time? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Young, Broke, but Fabulous Dear Y.B.F.: Start with two suits â&#x20AC;&#x201D; one with a jacket and matching skirt, the other with jacket and slacks. Make the suits interchangeable and in a neutral color â&#x20AC;&#x201D; black, navy or beige â&#x20AC;&#x201D; whatever looks best on you. Add a couple of blouses and sweater sets, several pairs of shoes and a good handbag. Make sure to look for â&#x20AC;&#x153;classicâ&#x20AC;? styles rather than trendy, and you will have the basis for a business wardrobe and the beginning of a great collection. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Horoscope: Happy Birthday for Friday, April 13, 2012 By Jacqueline Bigar This year the more conscious you are of your feelings, the greater success you will experience. Know that you cannot sit on your anger. You will learn to express your feelings in an effective manner. Sometimes, if you are honest with yourself, you feel overwhelmed by your responsibilities. If you are single, you will have a lot to work through personally. Choose a person with understanding. If you are attached, the two of you are more connected than in the past. You might choose to make a commitment together to your family or community. AQUARIUS is a loyal friend. The Stars Show the Kind of Day Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH You might feel as if everyone is throwing boulders in your path. Surprise! Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll just skip over them as you clear out a lot of issues. You have an unusual opportunity to start the weekend early. Tonight: Join friends for a dinner and maybe even a movie. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH How you deal with a commitment could change. Use your excellent sense of timing. Your fatigue with the status quo comes through. Others finally agree with you, once they get your logic. Tonight: Out and about. A force to be dealt with. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH Keep reaching out for an important person in your life. You might feel as if you could lose the connection between you. That wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t happen if you relax and refrain from standing on ceremony. The other party will sense a change in your perspective. Tonight: Break past a self-imposed barrier. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Rethink a personal decision. Deal with others on a one-onone level. You might not be sure about what you want. Once you can nail that down, you will have a sympathetic audience. Tonight: Be around music. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Stay mellow, despite what is going on. Others seek you out, but they might not be as positive or upbeat as you would like. In fact, you might need to deal with someone who is depressed. You could be surprised by how much anger this person unleashes. Stay on top of your priorities. Tonight:

Where the crowds are. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Remain sure of yourself. Recognize that someone who always makes you feel a bit insecure could be projecting his or her issues onto you. If you have kept a situation bottled up for too long, do not be surprised if you let it out now. Tonight: Pace yourself, and do not push. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHHH Curb any negativity, and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll make yourself and others happier. Sometimes, by not feeding into negativity, you can move through your feelings quickly. Allow lighter thoughts with more mirth to come out. Others gravitate toward you. Tonight: Play up the moment. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH If you can take some muchneeded personal time, please do. You have pushed past what is normal. Note the slant you put on different solutions. Look at the same issues next week at a happier moment. See the difference. Tonight: Spending a lot of energy on a friend. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Listen to news, return calls and ask questions. You might understand why someone has been pushing you away. Realize that you cannot do anything to change the situation. Someone you look up to clearly expresses his or her thoughts. Tonight: Hang out. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH Sometimes you need to build yourself up to make yourself feel better. Today, take stock of what you have done this week and all that you have to offer, and reconsider a judgment. You are your harshest critic. Decide to toss yourself 100 percent into all areas of your life. Tonight: Meet a friend. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH Consider your options more openly. The feedback you get during a discussion with your friends might surprise you. A friend or loved one finally tells you exactly where he or she is coming from. This person could surprise you. Tonight: Be spontaneous. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHH If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re feeling off, just say so. Everyone needs some time off from their lives. You are no exception. Listen to a friend and what he or she says. This person is trying to help you out. Allow others to carry the ball. Tonight: Play it low-key. ÂŠ 2011 by King Features Syndicate

Answering the call on proper cellphone use By Dr. Gregory Ramey Cox Newspapers

I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think you reQ: ally understand how important things like cellphones and Facebook are to young people. These are not privileges like toys to be taken away when parents get upset. They are our way of keeping in contact with our friends and are just as

important to us as a car is to an adult. Parents canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t protect kids forever and need to give them the freedom to learn how to use technology. I think youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re right. Neither parents nor profesA: sionals can truly appreciate how much texting, cellphones and social media really mean to their kids. This stuff is all so

new that parents really have limited experience in how to help their kids manage this technology. Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the advice I give to parents: No cellphones before junior high. Monitor your childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s texting until high school. Cellphones, computers and video games are expensive privileges, and their use should be contingent upon

your childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s behavior. Parents have an obligation to restrict such privileges if they are used irresponsibly or if they are detracting from kids getting good grades in school. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be interested in readersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; perspectives on this issue. Dr. Gregory Ramey is a child psychologist and vice president of outpatient services at the Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Medical Center of Dayton, Ohio.

THE BULLETIN • FRIDAY, APRIL 13, 2012

Military Continued from B1 Minnesota’s demographics work well for the research. Its mostly citizen-soldiers are generally older and more likely to have families than those on active duty. And those families often blend back in to small towns and cities after a deployment without the support system that a military base offers. But the research will do more than put military families under a microscope. It also is designed as a practical method for improving parenting skills, using a well-established model for parenting intervention and applying it to the special demands faced by military families. It is called “After Deployment: Adaptive Parenting Tools,” or ADAPT. “This is more about giving to our Guard families than it is about taking,” said Thad Shunkwiler, the outreach coordinator for the program and a 12-year member in the Minnesota Guard. The $3.2 million research project, funded through the National Institute of Drug Abuse and National Institutes of Health, will look at 400 families over a five-year period to see whether the parenting techniques they are taught will affect such things as their kids’ risk of substance abuse and behavioral and emotional problems. Participating families will be interviewed four times over the course of the research. Between 10 and 18 percent of returning Iraq and Afghanistan troops are likely to have post-traumatic stress disorder. Compounding their stress, nearly one in five will return without a job. Previous research has shown that citizen soldiers have had higher levels of PTSD, drug use and other combat-related adjustment problems compared with active-duty personnel. The first year back for these soldiers can often prove more stressful for families than the deployment in a war zone. “They’re helping us prepare for the future,” said Maj. Aaron Krenz, chief of Deployment Cycle Support for the Guard.

Self-esteem Continued from B1 Other researchers, such as Twenge, say the self-esteem movement may even have been harmful. In the her book, she points to research showing a spike in narcissistic tendencies in recent years. Nearly 10 percent of people in their 20s experienced some symptoms of a narcissistic personality disorder, meanwhile just 3 percent of those 65 and older had ever shown those tendencies. Brad Bushman, professor of communication and psychology at Ohio State University, says we got it backwards. We believed making people feel good would lead to good behavior. “Self-esteem should follow behavior, not precede it.”

What is it? “Self-esteem is a useful concept,” said Pickhardt — it’s how we think of ourselves and how we evaluate ourselves. He says it affects all the ways we see the world. “It makes a huge difference in how we feel about our lives and about ourselves.” Young people crave boosts in their self-esteem. Bushman performed research experiments looking at self-esteem in college students. The students preferred receiving a self-esteem boost above any other pleasant activity — above free food, alcohol, seeing friends, sex or money. Bushman sees this desire for self-esteem above all else as troubling. He says the trends are not good — self-esteem scores have increased over the years, while narcissism has increased and empathy has gone down. “If you already think you’re great, you are not going to try hard to become better,” said Bushman. Bushman has studied aggression through the years. He says it had been assumed that people who were violent had low self-esteem, when in fact the opposite turned out to be true, and criminals actually had inflated views of themselves.

What went wrong Twenge’s research initially focused on the good traits associated with younger generations. She found, for instance,

Joe Vogel holds his son Graydon, 2, on his lap after arriving home while his other son, William, 5, takes a nap. Vogel and his wife, Molly, participated in a program conducted by researchers at the University of Minnesota that studies the impact of military deployments on families, particularly among Guard and Reserve members.

Both John Thomas, and his wife, Mora, participated in the ADAPT program after Thomas’ return from deployment, and said the program gave them valuable parenting skills to use with their daughters, Claire, 4, seated, Isabella, 6, left, and Sophie, 9. Claire plays with the ADAPT program binder at the family’s home in Lakeville, Minn.

The project is still in its infancy. But as a reflection of the lack of academic work in the subject, researchers have been fielding interest in embracing the program even before the results are known. Gewirtz, the project’s principal investigator, recently heard from an Air Force general who wants to install the program at 25 air bases. For the military families participating, the study is intensive: a 14-week commitment, with two hours each week

meeting in church basements and community centers. After returning from a year in southern Iraq to his wife and two sons, Joe Vogel wasn’t much interested in sitting on a folding chair and sharing his feelings. But his brother, a psychologist who also is in the Guard, encouraged Vogel and his wife, Molly, to participate. The couple thought they wouldn’t qualify because they were doing well with their

that younger women were more assertive and more willing to take charge than women in previous generations. She and co-author Keith Campbell, who studied narcissism, wondered if narcissism has also increased over the years. It had. Twenge says there is a difference between self-esteem and narcissism. Self-esteem is confidence, whereas narcissism is overconfidence. She says it is the difference between thinking you are a person of worth and believing you are better than everyone else. People with high selfesteem, she says, also tend to think a lot about relationships and other people, whereas narcissists do not. Twenge believes there is a direct link between the increase in narcissism and the self-esteem movement and it has to do with how self-esteem is taught in schools, in particular the emphasis on specialness. She highlights a song often taught to children with the refrain “I am special, I am special, look at me!” The feeling of specialness and wanting to be the center of attention are two traits of narcissism. She believes the way we think about success is rooted in some fallacies. For instance, there’s a pervasive notion that if you just “believe in yourself, then anything can happen.” College students tell her they have to be self-centered because the world is so competitive. But, research shows that “self-esteem does not relate to success,” said Twenge. A 2007 study published in the Journal of Social and Clinical Psychology demonstrated that boosting self-esteem doesn’t help academic performance. In the study, researchers divided academically lowperforming college students into three groups: one received review questions, one received review questions and self-esteem bolstering, and the third received review questions plus directives to take responsibility and control. While the researchers expected those receiving encouragement to show academic improvement, the opposite was true. Those students receiving self-esteem boosts actually performed worse; those in the other groups did not change.

While Twenge believes there is a little more awareness now about the dangers of narcissism, she thinks the support for self-esteem continues. “There’s a basic belief that self-esteem is really really important. I have not seen it challenged.” She believes it is still just as prevalent in schools today as it was in the ’90s. Twenge found a preponderance of elementary schools, for instance, mention building good self-esteem as part of their mission statement. And she’s also seen it in her personal life. Her kindergartner recently came home from school with lyrics to the “I am special” song. When Twenge called the school to ask about it, she says the staff didn’t understand her concerns.

Praise and criticism Parental overpraising is also an issue linked to inflated selfesteem. “Sometimes parents get carried away,” said Pickhardt. They are enamored of their children and share these feelings. Twenge says parents need to focus on specifics and effort when offering praise, rather than on generalities (“Remember when you did that math problem last week? I know you can do this one, too.” vs. “You are so smart.”) She believes in teaching kids to work hard versus teaching them self-importance. Bushman agrees, saying children receive compliments such as “you are great, you are wonderful” that are not contingent upon actual behavior. “Don’t just give them praise for doing nothing.” Pickhardt encourages parents to keep praise moderate. Pickhardt also encounters parents who are overly critical. When kids make a mistake, parents should try to focus on the child’s choices rather than to be critical of the child’s character. Otherwise, Pickhardt says, adolescents can internalize the judgment and end up punishing themselves. Low self-esteem can be a problem for some kids, but Twenge says it’s a symptom, not a cause. Children may develop low self-esteem due to an unstable family background and other “more deeply rooted problems,” she said.

two boys, 5-year-old William and 2-year-old Graydon, and had the support of both their families. But they found the simple tools offered during the meetings subtly changed their parenting styles. They used charts to offer encouragement for good behavior and learned a technique for calmly confronting the boys at their own level to get them to pick up their toys. “Once you sign up and commit to it, we use it all the time,” Molly Vogel said. “Any family deals with stress and conflict, it’s just normal part of day to day. When you take a spouse out of the equation for more than a year, rules and expectations change and are set differently.” The Vogels have confronted the unique nature of Joe’s job with their boys — that sometime soldiers don’t come home. Three members of the Minnesota Guard were killed during his deployment, and Joe wears a bracelet bearing their names. “These are soldiers that died,” William said, slouching on the couch and eating a frozen treat. The program has had 100 families participate but hopes to recruit more. So far, 80

Parents’ roles Parents who are worried about narcissistic tendencies can try to give kids a reality check, says Twenge. If a teen says, “I am the best at X,” ask, “How do you know that?” Also, she encourages parents to focus on teaching empathy and social skills. Twenge is also leery of the “princess phenomenon,” in which clothing items and other material goods are marketed to young girls with princess slogans and imagery. She suggests parents remember that if their daughter is a princess, that turns them into loyal subjects. Also, what might be cute at age 2 is not cute at age 14. “We want (kids) to define themselves broadly and judge themselves kindly,” said Pickhardt. Where kids go wrong, he says, is when they define themselves narrowly — as

percent of the families are two-parent homes, averaging 8.9 years of marriage and 2.4 kids. In 85 percent of the families, it has been the dad who has deployed. With three active daughters and two full-time jobs, John and Mora Thomas also were hesitant to commit to the program. To top it off, John, an aviator in the Naval Reserve, hadn’t been deployed since he was on active duty more than eight years ago. But researchers encouraged them and they reconsidered. A Naval Academy grad, John believed in the occasional spanking to discipline his daughters. But after going through the program, he is trying new techniques, such as escalating time-outs of five to 10 minutes or taking away something of value. They find that they now get less back talk from the kids, particularly with their oldest, 9-year-old Sophie. She has noticed a change, too. “They were acting nicer when it came to punishment,” she said of her parents. And her own reaction? “I didn’t get as mad.” Now, the tools they have learned will become even more valuable. John just got word that he will be deployed this summer for a year as a pilot, flying Navy P-3 airplanes for reconnaissance and surveillance. Before they had children, John was deployed twice while stationed at naval bases in Maine and Florida. Sophie was only a few months old when he returned from his last deployment. “This should be a walk in the park, but I’ve experienced it in a different way,” Mora said. “I had the support of a Navy community during those deployments. Here, that’s my biggest concern. I’m in middle-class suburbia, and nobody gets it.” The Thomases haven’t told the girls of their dad’s deployment. They plan a family meeting to break the news.

only an academic or athlete or dancer. Then, when they experience a setback in that area, they feel as if they have nothing left. “You kind of want to diversify your portfolio so you can withstand the downturns,” said Pickhardt. Parents can help by opening doors and encouraging their kids to try different things. How parents see themselves can affect family life and the way their children see themselves, according to Pickhardt. He knows sometimes parents feel stressed at work and come home in a “wounded” state” and end up taking their bad feelings out on their families. “We are the model and the example,” said Pickhardt. If parents feel bad about themselves, it will permeate through the family. When he sees a parent

Question Continued from B1 “It really depends on maturity level, but kids should be about 14 or 15 years old if you want them to be taking on the majority of the responsibility,” Stayer said. One of the important steps of getting a pet is talking with children about responsibility and the importance of following through, she said. “Parents need to have that conversation with their children,” Stayer said. “A pet is a long-term commitment. It takes dedication. It’s not just over in two weeks.” Stayer said parents should not agree to get a pet unless they believe their children are able to make a commitment to the animal. In terms of responsibility level, certain pets are a better fit for younger children. She recommends fish as a great place for kids to start learning about pet responsibility, as they are relatively easy to care for. Hamsters and rats are also good options. Cats can be a better fit for younger children, as kittens are already trained to use a litter box and do not need as much training as dogs. If a child’s heart is set on getting a dog, an older dog may be a better option than a puppy. She recommends adopting from an animal shelter, but says children should visit the shelter with the parents to make sure the dog or cat is child-friendly. Puppies can be a lot of work, Stayer says, and may not always be a good fit for young children. Stayer also says it’s also important to go over safe handling techniques with children before any pet is brought into the home. This is crucial, Stayer says, so that children can avoid getting hurt, and can avoid hurting the new pet. Stayer says that ultimately, parents themselves should want the pets, too. Otherwise, it may end up being a bad decision for the entire family. — Reporter: 541-383-0354, mkehoe@bendbulletin.com

who is treating the family in a hurtful way, he says there’s “an injured relationship the parent has with themselves.” One common thing he sees is a mom who has become the self-sacrificial parent who has no independent way of defining herself, says Pickhardt. “It’s the example we set that is more powerful than the communication we give,” said Pickhardt. He says people became enamored with the concept of self-esteem when it first came out, but “maybe it’s time to reconsider it in a more moderate way.” People need to understand that self-esteem is connected to how people treat themselves and treat other people, and that it’s not just the kids’ self-esteem that matters, but the parents’ as well. — Reporter: 541-617-7860, ajohnson@bendbulletin.com

$50M sought in Bend midwife suit • The parents of boy born with cerebral palsy sue a birth center, the state and 2 midwives over what they deem negligence By Sheila G. Miller T he B ul l etin

The parents of a child who suffered complications at birth are suing the state, a Bend-based birth center and two of its midwives for

medical negligence and fraud. They are asking for more than $50 million. In a lawsuit filed April 2, Kristine and Greg Andrews — on behalf of their son — are suing the state of Oregon,

Motherwise Community Birth Center, midwife Nicole Tucker and midwife Christyn King for the medical problems they say the baby faces as a result of oxygen starvation during birth. The lawsuit asks for $25 million in noneconomic damages as well as $22.5 million in economic damages in the form of ongoing medical and therapeutic care and lost wages. It also asks for $3 mil-

lion in noneconomic damages to Kristine Andrews for the experience she had with her son’s birth. The Andrews’ attorney, J. William Savage, said he hoped to serve the lawsuit this week. “This child’s health care costs are going to be substantial,” Savage said. “He’ll never earn a living in a conventional sense and will never have a normal life.” See Midwife suit / C2

WASHINGTON — The U.S. Forest Service will buy two properties in Oregon for almost $1.7 million, Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack announced last week. The first is a 1,481-acre parcel inside the Imnaha Canyon in the Hells Canyon National Recreation Area in the Wallowa-Whitman National Forest in northeast Oregon. The $1.4 million purchase completes the acquisition of 5,907 acres from The Nature Conservancy. The second obtains 159 acres in the Major Creek drainage of the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area for $247,000. It is the second and final phase of a 1,964-acre purchase from The Trust for Public Land. “The pristine wildernesses, flowing waters and majestic vistas help define what makes this country great,” U.S. Forest Service Chief Tom Tidwell said in a prepared statement. “These projects will help ensure a long future of quality open space for those hunters and anglers, hikers, campers and other nature lovers who enjoy America’s great outdoors.” Forest service officials say

that the Wallowa-Whitman acquisition will help protect habitats for a number of federally protected fish — including Snake River steelhead, chinook salmon and bull trout — and the purple flowers known as MacFarlane’s four-o’clock. The area is also home to Oregon’s largest Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep herd. In addition, the property will enable public access to thousands of acres for fishing, hunting, hiking and other recreation opportunities, according to the Forest Service. See Parcels / C2

Former 4-H volunteer faces sexual abuse trial in August By Duffie Taylor The Bulletin

The trial of a Culver man facing sexual abuse charges involving a girl he met while serving as a 4-H volunteer will begin Aug. 27 in Jefferson County Circuit Court. Steven Stoltz, 66, is charged with second-degree custodial interference, three counts of sex abuse in the third degree — a class A misdemeanor — and one count of sex abuse in the second degree, a class C felony.

Stoltz’s 25-year-old daughter, Savallah Amber Stoltz, and his 24-year-old son-inlaw, John Straight, have been charged with custodial interference in connection with the case. The three were arrested Dec. 30 following a grand jury indictment and a fourmonth investigation by the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office. They have pleaded not guilty and are free on bail.

REDMOND

City will seek bids to plan for parking development By Erik Hidle The Bulletin

REDMOND — The city of Redmond expects demand for downtown parking to increase in the coming years as various economic development efforts produce results. To prepare, the Downtown Urban Renewal Advisory Committee decided earlier this week to request bids from firms capable of creating an inventory of existing parking spaces and developing a plan to add more. The city placed a $15,000 ceiling on the

project’s budget. “The goal is to look at the parking map (that comes from the study) and understand where the use currently is,” said Jon Williams, Redmond’s economic development project manager. “The second piece is to plan, as growth happens downtown, what to do for parking.” To spur economic development, Redmond has approved various loans, grants and tax cuts for employers willing to open up shop downtown.

“We have heard from some merchants that things really fill up at certain times, such as the lunch hour. But until we do this study we won’t know how big of an issue that really is.” — Jon Williams, economic development project manager, Redmond

Redmond Continued from C1 The city also has tentative plans to renovate the historic New Redmond Hotel downtown and bring a movie theater and aquatic center into the city center. If those efforts work, more people — and cars — will flock downtown, boosting demand for parking. City officials won’t say whether they expect the parking study to generate significant proposals — such as a parking garage — but they do expect some change to the status quo. Redmond’s downtown streets use unpaid, parallel parking spaces. “We have heard from some merchants that things really fill up at certain times, such as the lunch hour,” Williams said. “But until we do this study we won’t know how big of an issue that really is.” Ken Streater, a member of the Downtown Urban Renewal Advisory Committee, cites anecdotal evidence of parking problems such as one encountered by his 81-year-old mother, who drove for several blocks before finding a parking space. “And you worry that some people might not be so patient when looking for a space,” Streater said. But Streater, a commercial broker, doesn’t think Redmond’s parking problem is critical yet. Nonetheless, he said, “this is absolutely the right time to be studying the issue and studying it with an eye toward future commercial entities.” By developing a plan, in addition, the city can demonstrate to potential employers that parking won’t be a problem, said Streater. “I do believe business will react positively to studying the issue,” Streater said. Streater added: “I think that all alternatives need to be examined, from a big parking garage to leaving things the way it is to something in between, like a single-story parking lot.” — Reporter: 541-617-7837 ehidle@bendbulletin.com

Abuse trial Continued from C1 Judge Daniel Ahern ordered Stoltz to have no contact with children during a February pretrial conference but has since modified the no-contact requirement to allow Stoltz to see his grandchildren. Stoltz had been active in a Jefferson County 4-H youth development program for three decades and met the alleged victim through a program he led called Jefferson Kids and Kritters. He was suspended from his volunteer role shortly after police began their investigation. According to Oregon law, custodial interference in the second degree occurs when “the person takes, entices or keeps another person from the other person’s lawful custodian or in violation of a valid joint custody order with intent to hold the other person permanently or for a protracted period.” — Reporter: 541-383-0376, dtaylor@bendbulletin.com

A HILL OFT SKIED Gayle Schofield, of Bend, snapped this photo of the Cone at Mt. Bachelor using a Panasonic Lumix ZS3 with a Leica 25mm wide-angle lens. “I thought it came out very well with the contrasting blue skies, snow and trees,” said Schofield. “Plus the detail of the skiers’ tracks.”

Midwife suit Continued from C1 Savage added that the child will need constant care and, because he is not ventilatordependent or tube-fed, he will likely have a near-normal life expectancy. Tucker, who started Motherwise Birth Center in 2007, did not return a call for comment. According to the lawsuit, the Andrewses contracted with Motherwise to provide midwifery services for the birth of their child. The child was expected to be born in April 2010. The lawsuit alleges that Motherwise, Tucker and King did not have malpractice insurance and did not alert the Andrewses to that fact. According to Oregon administrative rules, licensed birth centers and midwives must provide patients with a disclosure form that includes, among other things, whether they hold malpractice coverage. “Had the required disclosure been made to Kristine Andrews or Greg Andrews about the absence of any malpractice coverage, they would not have agreed to proceed with midwifery or (licensed direct entry) services from defendants Motherwise LLC, Tucker and/or King,” the lawsuit states. The Andrewses’ son was born April 5, 2010. According to the lawsuit, in the weeks leading up to the birth, Kristine

“Had the required disclosure been made to Kristine Andrews or Greg Andrews about the absence of any malpractice coverage, they would not have agreed to proceed with midwifery or (licensed direct entry) services from defendants Motherwise LLC.” — Excerpt from lawsuit filed by Kristine and Greg Andrews against Motherwise Birth Center in Bend

Andrews had indications of high blood pressure, which can cause a variety of problems for both mother and baby. Kristine Andrews went to Motherwise on April 2, 2010, to try to start labor through stripping the membranes, a procedure involving the membrane separating the amniotic sac from the uterine wall. The procedure causes the body to release hormones that can lead to contractions. Andrews was then sent home, but returned two days later. According to the lawsuit, Andrews still had high blood pressure “and signs of a developing infection” and was sent home once again. When she returned to the birth center on April 5, her blood pressure remained elevated for three more hours, including during the birth of her son. The lawsuit states no monitoring equipment was used to check the fetal heart rate. Nevertheless, “the fetal heart rate was noted to indicate periodic bradycardia (slow heart rate)

and nonreassuring decelerations of the fetal heart rate.” When born, the infant did not respond to stimulation and did not breathe on his own. He was taken to St. Charles Bend, and 10 days later was discharged with signs of brain damage caused by oxygen starvation from birth. The baby suffered, among other things, significant brain damage and cerebral palsy. “These injuries, harms and losses are expected to be permanent in nature,” the lawsuit states. The lawsuit alleges Motherwise and the two midwives should have referred Kristine Andrews to an obstetrician/ gynecologist for prenatal and labor and delivery services. It also alleges the birth center and its midwives should have told the Andrewses they had no malpractice insurance. Finally, the lawsuit alleges the state was negligent. The Oregon Administrative Rules have a list of “absolute risk factors” for birthing

centers. When a risk factor is present, the regulations state a pregnant mother should be transferred to a higher level of care, like a hospital. One of the risk factors is hypertension. The state listed the threshold at a blood pressure of 150/100. According to the lawsuit, that threshold was “inappropriate and not evidence based.” The Andrewses allege the state was negligent for several reasons, most notably because of the blood pressure level it lists as a risk factor. The lawsuit also alleges the state didn’t require a mandatory disclosure form be produced to members of the public receiving services from midwives, licensed direct entry midwives or birthing centers, and that it didn’t implement “evidence based standards for the protection of Oregon citizens.” “The state, if it’s going to require mandatory disclosures be made, it should implement a uniform disclosure form to ensure those requirements are being satisfied,” Savage said. “It’s a very simple system, but beginning with airline pilots and now in the medical field in terms of hospitals, checklists are becoming more predominant and it just ensures that people are told what they need to be told, which in this case didn’t occur.” A pretrial hearing is slated for July. — Reporter: 541-617-7831, smiller@bendbulletin.com

Part of 1964 program The government pays for the purchases through the Land and Water Conservation Fund. Created in 1964, the program uses proceeds from offshore oil and gas drilling to identify and buy properties at fair market prices. Four agencies — the Forest Service, the National Park Service, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the Bureau of Land Management — identify desirable properties. Each year, Congress appropriates up to $900 million for the fund. So far, the Land and Water Conservation Fund has spent $9 billion on more than 7 million acres, with 1.5 million of those acres within or next to national forests or grasslands. Roughly one-third of those purchases were made at the state or community level, according to the Forest Service. — Reporter: 202-662-7456, aclevenger@bendbulletin.com

FRIDAY, APRIL 13, 2012 • THE BULLETIN

O N Snowpack is above average in much of Oregon, report shows The Associated Press ALBANY — A wet March led to an above-average snowpack for much of Oregon, a federal report shows. The Natural Resources Conservation Services reported Tuesday that measurements of water in the snowpack were at 124 percent of average in the Willamette Basin in March and 132 percent on Mount Hood. The report predicts that more water than usual will flow through streams in the western and northern parts of the state. But the snowpack was well below normal in Southeastern Oregon, where measurements

were less than half the normal level. The lowest measurement was 46 percent of average. The federal agency predicts stream volumes will be well below normal this year in that part of Oregon. Nearly all snow meters reported above-average precipitation last month, the Albany Democrat-Herald reported. Twenty-five of 80 meters reported their wettest March ever, with some exceeding their previous records by 4 to 6 inches. “Cooler temperatures in early March combined with abundant precipitation caused

an unusual amount of low-elevation snow accumulation on the west side of the Cascade Mountains,” said Julie Koeberle, NRCS hydrologist with the Oregon Snow Survey team. The federal Snow Survey measures snow and provides stream-flow forecasts and snowpack data for communities, water managers and recreationists across the West. A robust snowpack is important to farmers who depend on spring runoff to water their crops. Melting snow also provides fish habitat in rivers and streams, and it feeds municipal water supplies.

Ethel “Punki” McNamee, 69, stands in front of a structure, currently vacant, that has housed homeless people in Estacada.

Facing stiff fine, Estacada woman clears transients from her property The Associated Press ESTACADA — After years of complaints from residents of a small Oregon town and now a judge’s order, a 69-year-old woman who let as many as 30 down-on-their-luck people at a time stay in various shed-like outbuildings on her property has given up her struggle with the city and turned out most of the inhabitants. The Oregonian reports Ethel “Punki” McNamee faced a $10,000 fine if she didn’t clear the structures. A handful of the people who stayed on her property have temporarily moved into McNamee’s house while they seek permanent housing. On Wednesday, 48-year-old Matthew Smith came to McNamee looking for a place to stay but was turned away. He hoped for a spot at the area referred to as “Punki’s Place,” but will likely have to keep asking friends for help. “I’m just an old dog,” he said. “I have nowhere to go.” On April 4, Municipal Judge Maryann Meaney gave McNamee 30 days to force residents out of the accessory structures, which were mostly empty by the trial. “I echo the concern of the community and the City Council,” Meaney said. “Peo-

SALEM — Although the Oregon Constitution protects state lawmakers from being sued for what they say in the heat of debate, an appeals court says they can be ordered to testify on other matters related to governing. The decision Wednesday means Senate President Peter Courtney of Salem and former House Speaker Dave Hunt of Gladstone can be compelled to testify in a case involving six anti-war protesters. They were arrested in January 2009 during an all-night vigil on the Capitol steps. The Oregonian reports Courtney and Hunt helped rewrite the rules on overnight demonstrations, but they re-

The Associated Press PORTLAND — Mayor Sam Adams said Thursday he won’t implement an arbitrator’s ruling that a police officer fired after he shot an unarmed man in the back in 2010 should be reinstated. The city attorney thinks there are sufficient legal grounds to challenge the reinstatement of Officer Ronald Frashour, Adams said in a statement. Arbitrator Jane Wilkinson ruled last month that Portland should reinstate Frashour with lost wages, finding that the city didn’t prove just cause for his termination. Police training instructors testified at the arbitration hearings that Frashour followed his training when he used deadly force against 25year-old Aaron Campbell on Jan. 29, 2010. “Our standards for the allowed use of deadly force are more restrictive than national standards and the local standards of other police departments,” said Adams, who serves as police commissioner. “I believe Frashour violated our policy and training protocols regarding allowed use of deadly force.” The mayor said if the police union challenges his decision, he’ll ask that the state Employment Relations Board expedite a decision. The board is a state agency that resolves labor disputes between union-

represented workers and public and private employers. Officer Daryl Turner, president of the Portland Police Association, said the union plans a legal challenge of Adams’ decision. Turner called Wilkinson “a nationally recognized arbitrator who was hand-selected by the city.” Her decision “should be the end of this matter,” he said. Turner called the mayor’s decision politically motivated and expensive for the city. About 200 people protested April 2 outside City Hall in the wake of Wilkinson’s decision, calling for the officer to leave town and indicating that without a resolution, the city could witness a summer of unrest. The Portland Police Bureau is already under a Department of Justice probe for its interactions with the mentally ill. The Justice Department declined to investigate the bureau over Campbell’s shooting, but the Campbell family agreed to settle a federal wrongful death suit against the city for $1.2 million in February.

Campbell was distraught over his brother’s death when he emerged from a Portland apartment, with his back toward officers and his hands behind his head. One officer fired six bean bag rounds at the man. Campbell ran toward a parked car. Frashour fired a single rifle shot, killing Campbell. Police Chief Mike Reese has said it was unreasonable for Frashour to believe that Campbell posed an “immediate threat” of death or serious injury. The City Council voted this week to pay another $300,000 to an outside law firm defending city sanctions against three other officers accused of botching their encounter with Campbell. The city has already spent $450,000 with the law firm, Littler Mendelson, in its defense of the city’s firing of Frashour. The Oregonian reported that three other officers who were disciplined in the case have filed grievances that are set to go before an arbitrator.

ple shouldn’t be living in some of these structures.” Like most small cities and rural areas of Oregon, Estacada has no emergency shelter. Homeless people might wait years for an opening. By contrast, at Dignity Village — a city-recognized encampment near the Portland International Airport — it can take more than six months to move through the queue for a 10-foot-by-12-foot structure similar to those in McNamee’s yard. Earlier this year, 80 Estacada residents signed a petition

to force McNamee’s renters off her property, complaining about noise, police presence and proximity to Clackamas River Elementary. McNamee said that while she’s sad to have to end her open-door policy, she plans to comply with the city’s decision and keep her operation legal. “These people deserve to live better, and there’s better places out there for them,” Mayor Becky Arnold said. “When they’re enabled to live there like that, they ultimately end up hurting themselves.”

E Experience makes Volpert fit for seat on appeals court

The Bulletin

AN INDEPENDENT NEWSPAPER

B M C G B J C R C

Chairwoman Publisher Editor-in-Chief Editor of Editorials

im Volpert, a Portland lawyer who specializes in appeals, is the votersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; best choice in the May 15 election for a seat on the Oregon Court of Appeals.

Volpert, 56, is competing with administrative law Judge Allan Arlow and Linn County Circuit Court Judge James C. Egan for the position. The court, created by the Legislature in 1969, handles 3,000 to 4,000 cases per year, including nearly all appeals from Oregonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trial courts and administrative agencies. Volpert is a partner at Davis Wright Tremaine LLP, where he has focused on appellate law for more than 20 years. His most famous case, Vernonia School District v. Acton, took him before the U.S. Supreme Court in 1995, where he successfully argued that schools can legally require random drug testing. Volpert grew up in Indiana and graduated from Oregonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Willamette University College of Law in 1981. He began to specialize in appellate law in 1994, and says he has experience with virtually all of the types of cases the appellate court handles. In the community, Volpert helped found the Grant High School Constitution Team, where he and other attorneys have volunteered to teach law and history for 12 years. He has also volunteered in the Senior Law Project of Legal Aid Services of Oregon. For 13 years, Arlow, 68, has been an administrative law judge for the Oregon Public Utility Commission and the Oregon Board of Maritime Pilots. He graduated from George-

(Tim Volpert) has spent decades learning the ins and outs of appellate proceedings while working on a wide variety of cases. town University Law Center and practiced corporate law in Washington, D.C., and Chicago before moving to Oregon in 1998. Much of his legal career has focused on telecommunications law. Egan, 55, was appointed to his Linn County judgeship by Gov. Ted Kulongoski in July 2010. Previously, he specialized in personal injury, workersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; compensation and Social Security disability as well as business and real estate as a partner in Kryger, Alexander, Egan, Elmer & Carlson. He also served as a command judge advocate in Kuwait as a member of the U.S. Army Reserve, and earlier served in the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve. Egan earned his law degree at the University of Oregon School of Law. Of the three candidates, Volpertâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s experience is most relevant in this election. He has spent decades learning the ins and outs of appellate proceedings while working on a wide variety of cases. That experience best prepares him for the unique requirements of the appellate court, which operates under vastly different rules and standards than trial courts.

State law regarding Bend district biased

ocial scientists have puzzled for years over what not voting in an election means for a voter. Alienation? Satisfaction? Too busy to vote? It doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t usually mean voting yes. For downtown property owners in Bend, not voting in the decision to renew the downtown improvement district is the same thing as voting yes. If approved on May 2, it would be the fourth time the district was renewed. The money raised goes to pay for all sorts of important downtown improvements â&#x20AC;&#x201D; graffiti removal, sweeping, getting snow off the sidewalk, trash cans, benches, holiday lighting, marketing and more. The executive director of the Downtown Bend Business Association, currently Chuck Arnold, is paid to manage the district. The proposed assessment rate is 18 cents per square foot. For the three years of the district, that is

expected to raise about $150,000 a year. There are at least three peculiarities to this vote. First, if the owners of more than one-third of the area in the district vote no, the district does not get approved. Second, if a property owner does not vote, it is counted as a yes vote. Third, state law says even if an assessment is approved, councilors may find â&#x20AC;&#x153;that assessments shall not be levied on any lot or parcel of property if the owner of that property submitted written objections at the public hearing.â&#x20AC;? We are not arguing that there is something wrong with Bendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s downtown improvement district. We have a problem with the state law. We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe there should be a bias in a tax vote that bends it toward approval. Some may argue that the other two peculiarities in the law balance that. We canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see how not voting should mean yes.

My Nickelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Worth Run more chair lifts How does Mt. Bachelor decide to have 50 percent of the lifts running while charging the top red rates? You might want to check out some of your competitors in British Columbia, Colorado and Utah to compare lift and run availability for their paying guests. Check out Park City, 100 percent; Alta, 100 percent; Taos, 100 percent; Snowbasin, 78 percent; Vail, 100 percent; and Sun Valley, 90 percent, for example. Most of these resorts have less snow and available ski terrain. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a disgrace to not have Outback lift running during the week, depriving guests of a large part of great intermediate terrain. The argument that this terrain is available through the use of Northwest lift is specious at best. Guests have the right to use all the mountain facilities â&#x20AC;&#x201D; weather permitting, of course â&#x20AC;&#x201D; when they are charged top dollar. Furthermore, when there is inclement weather preventing Northwest and or Summit chair operation, Red Chair and Outback should be spinning to alleviate the overcrowding of Pine Marten Chair. If Mt. Bachelor wants to be considered a first-class resort, it needs to revise its lift operating policies to ensure guests are getting their moneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worth. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s make Mt. Bachelor a first-class operation. John Schleicher Bend

Trapping is animal abuse In all the debate over trapping, I have read trapper accounts that claim animals caught in traps feel no pain, and that they do not suffer. Years ago, I was accidentally caught in a huge conibear trap that had been set for beaver in a stream

near my home. The trap snapped onto my left wrist and the pain I experienced was excruciating. I had to drive myself to a neighborâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s house for help. Even after the trap was removed, the pain did not stop. My left hand was paralyzed and it was nine months before I regained complete use. Meanwhile, the pain was unrelenting, and I suffered for several weeks before it began to let up. I sustained severe nerve damage to my wrist, and 15 years later, I can still feel the effects. I completely understand how the pain would drive a trapped animal to chew off its own leg in an attempt to escape. If anyone other than a licensed trapper willfully inflicted this kind of pain and suffering on an animal, they would go to jail. Wanting to ban trapping is not just about keeping our pet dogs out of traps, it is about saving thousands of Oregonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wildlife from suffering pain, and an agonizing death, at the hands of a few people in the name of â&#x20AC;&#x153;sport.â&#x20AC;? Oregonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wildlife belongs to all Oregonians, not just to a few to torture and kill for fun and a few dollarsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; profit. In my opinion, trapping is legally sanctioned animal abuse. Jennifer Kirkpatrick Bend

Racial profiling must end We live in a pretty idyllic part of the country. Perhaps the events in Sanford, Fla., seem far away and irrelevant to the lives of many of us. Not for me. I, too, have a son who looks like Trayvon Martin. Racial profiling is a very real and scary phenomenon in our society. Until we face up to this issue head-on, racial profiling will continue to ravage the lives of our young men of color. The death of Trayvon Martin

should haunt us all. Like any 17year-old kid, Trayvon Martin wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t perfect, but he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t cause his own death and he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t deserve to be singled out by George Zimmerman â&#x20AC;&#x201D; who found him suspicious as a young black male in his neighborhood. We desperately need to have an honest conversation about race profiling in this country. We need justice for Trayvon Martin. We need tolerance for our kids. â&#x20AC;&#x153;An injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhereâ&#x20AC;? (Martin Luther King Jr., Letter from Birmingham Jail, April 1963). Please join me in this conversation here in Bend and help me search for solutions that will end the senseless targeting of our young men of color. Beth Hoover Bend

Obama partial to blacks Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been told repeatedly that Barack Obama is president and that he stands for all of us. Obviously this isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t true. He carefully picks who his choices are. In the recent case of Trayvon Martin, Obama says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;If I had a son, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d look like Trayvon.â&#x20AC;? Those are fightinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; words since Obama has never mentioned the names of thousands of victims of killings whether they be blacks, Latinos, whites or anyone who looks different from him. Obama has had hundreds of early demises of numerous young folks of all colors to comment on, yet he chose only this one to make clear that the young man struck his fancy. Shame, shame on you, Obama, for showing such obvious partiality. Carol Hoffman Redmond

Community colleges must address dropout rates to be viable By Mark Schneider and Lu Michelle Yin Special to Los Angeles Times

ommunity colleges are central to the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s higher education system, enrolling almost 30 percent of all postsecondary students. But their record of success is spotty. Nationally, only about a quarter of full-time community college students complete their studies within three years â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the official measure of a schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s graduation rate. At more than a third of Californiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s community colleges, graduation rates are 20 percent or less. Of the full-time, degree-seeking students who entered California community colleges in 2007, more than 35,000 had not earned their degrees three years later, and most of them were no longer enrolled in any postsecondary institution. This happens year after year after year, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not only the dropouts

who are harmed. When students fail to complete their degrees, taxpayers also lose. Community colleges are subsidized through direct state and local government appropriations and through student grant programs. Every student who drops out represents an investment loss by the taxpayers in that studentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s uncompleted education. Because students who complete their degrees earn more money than high school graduates or dropouts, taxpayers win when students graduate. The higher wages they earn as a result generate higher income taxes. We recently calculated that if the schools could reduce by half the number of students who drop out each year, more than 150,000 more students nationwide would get associate degrees each year. We further calculated that these

newly minted community college graduates would earn an additional $1.4 billion in income nationwide, which would translate into an additional $200 million in federal income taxes and $60 million in state income taxes each year. The question is: What can be done to make this happen? We know that the longer a student takes to complete a degree, the more likely it is that something will happen to derail his plans. Many students start at community colleges needing remedial classes to bring them to the point where they can handle college work. One important step to reducing the number of dropouts would be to streamline remediation programs so that students can more quickly get to a level where the classes they take earn them college credits. Community colleges could expand

their online course offerings as well. Online delivery of class content renders the traditional limitations of geographic distance, physical capacity and time moot. Instructors can reach far more students online than in traditional physical classrooms, and online courses can start any day of any week and any week of the year. Another way to reduce the number of dropouts would be to replace a system that awards degrees based on â&#x20AC;&#x153;seat timeâ&#x20AC;? with a system that rewards subject mastery. This would allow students to move at their own pace through a course of study, progressing from one concept to the next after passing assessment tests. Finally, for-profit institutions embody a host of ideas that community colleges should emulate. Many forprofit colleges are leading the way in developing innovative online learning

platforms and redefining an approach to curriculum development and faculty training to encourage uniformity in instruction across multiple sites and instructors. Faculty at the best forprofit institutions are evaluated on the basis of their studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; learning outcomes. Graduation rates at two-year for-profit institutions are almost three times higher than at public community colleges. Reforms such as these could transform todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s inefficient and costly community college system. These reforms are not necessarily expensive, as well as the billions of dollars in government appropriations that subsidize the tuition paid by students who fail to graduate. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Mark Schneider is vice president at the American Institutes for Research.

FEATURED OBITUARY

Cuban exiles revered Bishop Roman McClatchy-Tribune News Service MIAMI â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Agustin Roman, the beloved emeritus auxiliary bishop of Miami who was considered the spiritual leader of South Floridaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Cuban exile community, died Wednesday night of a heart attack. He was 83. A humble, gentle man with an iron will and a steadfast moral compass, he was viewed by older Cuban exiles as a champion of freedom and faith. Roman, who had retired in 2003, served his God and his people, said those who knew him. He made his final public appearances in Miami during Pope Benedict XVIâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s visit to Cuba last month and on Easter Sunday after the pope honored Cuban-born Rev. Felix Varela by bringing him closer to sainthood. Roman had suffered from heart disease for several years. He was found slumped over the wheel of his car on the grounds of Our Lady of Charity Shrine, known in Spanish as Ermita de la Caridad del Cobre, where for decades he lovingly served his flock and carried the Cuban exile banner. Roman spent more than half his life in exile, first in Spain, then in Chile and the United States, yet he never surrendered to bitterness, never lost hope. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am a Cuban, and I will always love the country where I was born,â&#x20AC;? Roman once said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I hope that before I go to heaven, I will see Cuba again. But I love America, too. This is the country that welcomed me.â&#x20AC;? His influence permeated the Cuban exile and Roman Catholic communities, and extended well beyond them. In the early 1960s, Roman led the campaign to build La Ermita de la Caridad. He asked each exile for 10 cents. He ended up collecting $240,000. The shrine, on South Miami Avenue along the edge of Biscayne Bay, opened in 1967. It attracts almost 500,000 visitors a year. Roman found himself thrust into the national spotlight when he served as a key mediator during the 1987 Mariel prisoner uprisings at the prisons in Atlanta and Oakdale, La. Refugees at both rioted and seized hostages after learning they might be deported after serving their time. His help sought by the White House, Roman spoke with the prisoners at Oakdale. He addressed them as â&#x20AC;&#x153;dear brothersâ&#x20AC;? and assured them that a deal offered by authorities was fair and just. In minutes, they surrendered. A week later, Roman and his attorney and close friend, Rafael Penalver, walked into the besieged prison in Atlanta. Alone. Angry prisoners lurked everywhere. Their lives in jeopardy, Roman whispered to Penalver: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bless you, and put yourself in the hands of the Virgin.â&#x20AC;? The armed prisoners all dropped their shivs on a pile. Roman kept one of the weapons in his home, framed, a gift from the federal government.

NORTHWEST NEWS

Medical pot states mull driving laws By Maggie Clark McClatchy-Tribune News Service

WASHINGTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Twelve years after Colorado legalized the use of marijuana for medicinal purposes, more than 85,000 people have been certified by the state health department to use it. Now, there is increasing concern about a rise in traffic accidents caused by people under the influence of marijuana. Between 2006 and 2010, more than 300 fatal accidents involved drivers who tested positive for cannabis, according to the Colorado Department of Highway Safety. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why Republican state Sen. Steve King wants Colorado to set a legal limit for marijuana intoxication, somewhat similar to the 0.08 percent blood alcohol limit states put on driving under the influence of alcohol. And in California, Democratic Assemblywoman Norma Torres wants to set a zero-tolerance ban on driving under the influence of any drug, including marijuana. But bills put forward by both King and Torres have run into opposition from those who say the science around what marijuana does to the body and mind is not conclusive enough to set a legal limit. In Colorado, critics also note that Kingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s approach would cost the state public defenderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office about $600,000 per year to defend those accused of â&#x20AC;&#x153;drugged drivingâ&#x20AC;? charges. Yet concerns over cannabis intoxication wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go away. Voters in Colorado and Washington state will decide whether to legalize recreational marijuana use, while a dozen more states are considering legalizing marijuana for medical purposes. In this explainer, Stateline examines the research surrounding marijuana and road safety, and explores why itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so difficult to say how high is too high to drive. How does marijuana affect the body? The active ingredient in marijuana is called delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC. Whether marijuana is ingested through smoking or eating, THC rapidly goes through the bloodstream to the brain. In the brain, THC slows down receptors that communicate brain functions between synapses, throwing the brainâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s natural information flow off balance. Users experience diminished pain sensitivity, which explains marijuanaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s medicinal purpose. But users also experience slowed reaction time, impaired memory function, impaired coordination and altered judgment. How does marijuanaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s effect on drivers compare to alcohol? Although the symptoms for THC intoxication are similar to alco-

Q: A:

hol intoxication, the effects on drivers are very different. According to a study by researchers from Yale University, alcohol-impaired drivers struggle with complex tasks like merging onto a crowded highway, but can generally perform automatic functions like turning on the car. Marijuana users, however, can better handle complex situations than simple tasks like following the curve of a road. Users of alcohol and marijuana also differ in their perceptions of their own impairment. Alcohol users tend to underestimate their level of impairment and drive faster and more recklessly. By contrast, marijuana users tend to overestimate their impairment and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t display as many obvious impairment symptoms. How does the risk of traffic accidents following marijuana consumption compare with the risks of accidents after alcohol consumption? Driving within three hours of consuming cannabis increases the risk of vehicle crashes by about two or three times, according to research published this February from Mark Asbridge, an associate professor at Dalhousie University in Canada. Concerning as that is, it is much less of a risk than alcohol consumption, which increases vehicle crash risk by five to 16 times. What laws do states have in place now? According to the National Conference of State Legislatures, 17 states have what are known as â&#x20AC;&#x153;per seâ&#x20AC;? laws regarding drugs and driving. That means anyone driving with traces of an illegal or impairing drug in his or her system is breaking the law. This is closer to a â&#x20AC;&#x153;zero toleranceâ&#x20AC;? policy than the 0.08 percent blood alcohol content states have for drunk driving. However, of those states that have per se laws, Arizona, Delaware, Michigan, Nevada and Rhode Island also allow medicinal marijuana, setting up an inherent conflict. Do states try to measure marijuana intoxication like blood alcohol content? Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what Nevada has done. In an attempt to create something like the clear standard that exists for alcohol intoxication, Nevada set a limit for THC in the blood at 2 nanograms of THC per milliliter of blood. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about 2 billionths of a gram of THC â&#x20AC;&#x201D; one gram is about the weight of a paperclip â&#x20AC;&#x201D; in one drop of blood. In Colorado, state Kingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bill would set a limit of 5 nanograms of THC per milliliter of blood. And in Washington state, the ballot initiative that would legalize recreational use of marijuana would also set a limit of 5 nanograms of THC per milliliter of blood. Advocates of medical marijuana say the science isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t supportive of adopting such specific limits. They worry that this approach will cause drivers who arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t impaired but have lingering traces of THC in their blood to lose their driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s licenses.

Gold prospectors draw crowd to North Bend event By JESSIE HIGGINS The World of Coos Bay

NORTH BEND — Panning for gold takes patience, keen eyes and steady hands. Without training, novice gold-seekers will find it unproductive. So, the hands-on gold-panning display at the North Bend Prospectors’ first South Coast Outdoor Adventure Show on Saturday at the North Bend Community Center was popular. “Through here there’s been a steady stream,” said Milo Summerville, a ten-year member of North Bend Prospectors. Periodically there was a line out the door, he said. Although the club has existed for decades, this is the first year members put on a local show. Usually they raise funds by going on the road with other gold prospecting groups. But this year, gas prices were too high, said Bob Baldwin, president of North Bend Prospectors Inc. So they’re hoping to start a tradition. “Our purpose here mostly is to inform the public what we’re

about,” said Summerville, who started gold panning 35 years ago. “It doesn’t hurt the environment like most people think it does.” In Oregon rivers and streams, gold occurs as small flakes that are mixed with sand and sediment. To remove the gold, prospectors slowly and methodically shake out the lighter materials and wash them away, leaving behind the gold flecks. It is not easy. At the panning display, club members supervised a large tub of water with sand and sediment at the bottom. Visi-

tors could practice using a pan to remove and clear the lighter dirt and debris, leaving the heavier dark sand and gold at the base of the pan. Hundreds came through to learn the art. Children were drawn to the dirt and water. They generally lacked coordination and patience, but still splashed the pan of sand in the water, trying to mimic the adults’ movements. Baldwin said gold panning is a fun family activity. When Baldwin joined the prospectors ten years ago there were 40 members. Now there are more than 200. “The price of gold is going up, and the baby boomers need something to do,” he said. The price of gold is currently more than $1,600 an ounce. But enthusiasts caution that it’s nearly impossible to make much money from gold panning. For experienced prospectors, who can invest a lot of time, gold panning could provide supplemental income. But most in the group consider it a hobby, Summerville said.

Bill Peabody demonstrates how to separate gold from black sand during the gold prospectors’ show in North Bend on Saturday. Peabody has been prospecting as a hobby for 30 years. He started combing the ground for fossils in the Midwest. While he’s never struck it rich, the idea keeps him going. “Maybe if I roll one more rock it’ll be gold,” he said.

Wade backs off Olympic pay MIAMI — Heat guard Dwyane Wade says money is not his motivation for the London Games this summer. In a statement Thursday, Wade said, “I do not want to be paid to go to the Olympics.” Wade was quoted Wednesday saying he thinks “guys should be compensated” for playing over the summer and noted the schedule demands of being an Olympian. He said he was responding to a question about Olympians being paid, and never said he needed to be paid to play. Wade later tweeted that pride for his country “motivates me more than any $$$ amount.” Wade played for the U.S. at Athens in 2004 and Beijing in 2008, and has said the London Games would be his last.

Summit boys, girls prevail in tourney at Pronghorn • Storm hold off Bend High and Redmond in victory Bulletin staff report Taking advantage of a rare chance to play Pronghorn Club’s Nicklaus Course on Thursday, Summit teammates Cole Ortega and Dylan Cramer shared medalist honors at the High Desert Classic while leading the Storm to victory at the four-team boys

golf tournament. The two Summit seniors each shot a 4-over-par 76 to best Redmond’s Mason Rodby (77) and their teammate Ryan Blackwell (77). As a team, the Storm posted a 313 to win the singleday event. See Boys / D5

• Freshman leads Storm once again in four-team event Bulletin staff report Bend High was hoping to at least give powerful Summit a run. As it was, the Lava Bears barely forced the Storm into a trot. Summit, the three-time defending Class 5A state champion, got all five players in under 100 Thursday — no

simple accomplishment on a cold and unpleasant Central Oregon day — and rolled to a convincing victory in the High Desert Classic girls golf tournament at Pronghorn Club. Led by medalist Madison Odiorne, the Storm posted a team total of 360 strokes. See Girls / D5

NBA Saints name interim coach NEW ORLEANS — Sean Payton handed over control of his team to Joe Vitt once before and the Saints have decided to do it again. The Saints Thursday named Payton’s trusted Vitt second-incommand their interim coach, despite the fact that Vitt will miss a third of the season for his role in New Orleans’ bounty system. For his part, Payton received a season-long suspension — which begins Monday; Vitt, who takes over Monday, was handed a six-game suspension. Saints general manager Mickey Loomis said in his announcement that the team will address at a later time how to divvy up Vitt’s responsibilities during his six-week absence. “It is important that we keep Sean Payton’s philosophy front and center during this season,” Loomis said. “Sean has been the driving force behind the tremendous success our team has enjoyed during the past six years, his leadership will be missed. But we need to set a course of action that gives us the best chance to win this season without our head coach. “We considered a number of great options to handle Payton’s duties both internally and externally, but believe this will provide the most seamless transition for our players and our coaching staff, allowing our offensive and defensive staffs to remain intact with the fewest changes,” Loomis continued. “This is the same structure we used last season during Sean’s knee injury.”

Spring shredding • Winter lingers at Central Oregon ski areas, but area skiers and snowboarders eagerly await spring corn snow

kiers and snowboarders all love MARK fresh powder. But this time of year, many MORICAL are ready for the warmer days of spring and the unique snow that comes with them. Central Oregon is still in winter mode, as Mt. Bachelor ski area reported 3 inches of new snow Thursday morning and snow flurries made their way across the region.

On Monday I headed up to Bachelor, hoping to shred some coveted springtime “corn” snow on a mostly sunny day when the temperature was forecast to reach 48 degrees. The problem was, it never got warm enough to completely soften the snow into the smooth, large-grained crystals formed from repeated freezing and melting. See Spring / D6

Spring operations at Central Oregon ski areas Mt. Bachelor ski area: Open daily from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. through April 29; open Thursdays through Sundays from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. from May 3 to May 27; starting this Monday, the only operating chairlifts will be Pine Marten, Skyliner and Summit (weather permitting); visit www. mtbachelor.com.

Blazers’ Aldridge to have surgery on hip By Anne M. Peterson The Associated Press

PORTLAND — Trail Blazers forward LaMarcus Aldridge will have surgery on his right hip and miss the rest of the season. The team said Thursday no date has been set for the arthroscopic procedure, which will repair a slight labral tear. Aldridge says he has had pain for about two weeks and is unsure how the injury occurred. “I’m just happy we know what it is now and we can move forward,” said Aldridge, who traveled to Vail, Colo., this week for a closer look at the injury after an earlier MRI didn’t show it. Aldridge is averaging 21.7 points, 8.0 rebounds and 2.4 assists this season while shooting a career-high 51.2 percent. The 6-foot-11 power forward in his sixth year called the tear “minor” and said he was being proactive in having the procedure. Aldridge had surgery to repair torn cartilage in his left hip when he was at Texas in 2005. He said that injury was much more severe. “LaMarcus’ priority is that he’s 100-percent healthy going into training camp this fall and we all feel this is the best course,” Blazers acting general manager Chad Buchanan said in a statement. “He’s had an All-Star year and his long-term health is the most important thing to consider.” See Aldridge / D5

For better or worse, BCS postseason format is about to change By Blair Kerkhoff McClatchy-Tribune News Service

ark, the sounds of spring football: Coaches barking, pads bashing, motorcycles crashing. If we’re finished rubber-necking at the wreckage of a Harley and a coaching career at Arkansas, it’s time to move on to an issue with wider impact in college football. During the next couple of months,

the quiet and steady progress of restructuring the national championship will come to a resolution. “We’re getting down to it,” said Bill Hancock, executive director of the Bowl Championship Series. “Pretty soon, it’s going to be time to make a decision, and I’m confident the game will be better for it.” Coaches like the shamed Bobby Petrino come and go, but the idea of

crowning a college football champion through what in all likelihood will be a playoff is revolutionary stuff for a sport that kicked off 143 years ago and largely identified its champion through opinion polls and computer rankings. Last week, a position paper surfaced that detailed the most discussed options of change among conference commissioners. Those with visions of eight- or 16-team playoffs will be disappointed.

Let’s start with the option that, from interviews, seems to have the most traction: a four-team event with seeded semifinals and a championship game. This model works because it satisfies the desire for change without, traditionalists believe, diminishing the value of the regular-season and bowl games. New school and old school forging a new path. It sells. See BCS / D5

Three share PGA Tour lead at Hilton Head Th e Associated Press HILTON HEAD ISLAND, S.C. — Chad Campbell used a fast start, and Vaughn Taylor and Colt Knost had strong finishes to share the first-round lead at 4-under 67 in the RBC Heritage on Thursday. Campbell birdied four of his first seven holes, Knost birdied three of his last five, and Taylor holed out from the fairway for a closing eagle on the par4 ninth hole at Harbour Town Golf Links. Jim Furyk, the 2010 winner, was a stroke back along with Harris English, Charlie Wi and Matt Every. Forty-two players, including John Daly in just his second PGA Tour event this year, were at even par or better. Masters winner Bubba Watson took the week off, as

G O LF RO UNDUP did most players ranked in the world’s top 20. No. 1 Luke Donald, who has been second, third and second here the past three years, opened with a 75. He has to finish in the top eight or surrender to the top spot to No. 2 Rory McIlroy next week. Matt Kuchar was tied for the lead at Augusta National with three holes left before finishing two shots out of the playoff between Watson and Louis Oosthuizen, Kuchar hoped to continue his strong play at Harbour Town, but ended in a large group at 1-over 72. Campbell held a first-round lead for the first time since the 2009 Masters. His game has faded some since then — he recorded just one top 10, at the

British Open, last year, his fewest since coming out on tour in 2002 — and has missed five cuts in nine tournaments this year. “I haven’t felt like I’ve been that far off,” Campbell said. “But the results haven’t been good at all.” Campbell got it going quickly at Harbour Town with an 8-foot birdie putt on No. 2 and then consecutive birdies on the fourth and fifth holes. He moved to 4 under two holes later, rolling in a 20-footer for birdie. Campbell added a final birdie on the 15th. Campbell said the wind reminded him of his days playing golf in West Texas. “Other than the trees and the ocean,” he joked. Taylor caught Campbell with his stunning shot from

103 yards out on his final hole, the ninth. Taylor, a native of Augusta, Ga., also has struggled and teed off at the RBC Heritage on a sponsor’s exemption. Knost joined the leaders with a late charge of his own, collecting birdies on the 14th, 16th and 18th holes. Also on Thursday: Schwartzel on top of Malaysian Open KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia — South Africa’s Charl Schwartzel shot an 8-under 64 to take a one-stroke lead over India’s Jeev Milkha Singh after the first round of the Malaysian Open. South Africa’s Louis Oosthuizen, coming off a playoff loss to Bubba Watson in the Masters, was two strokes back along with American Jason Knutzon and India’s Jyoti Randhawa.

Football • Petrino apologetic in text messages: Former Arkansas coach Bobby Petrino was apologetic in text messages sent to a series of athletic department employees, including athletic director Jeff Long, following the revelation of his affair and the presence of a 25-year-old employee during the April 1 motorcycle accident that led to his downfall. The content of Petrino’s text messages still available on his phone were obtained by The Associated Press through a Freedom of Information Act request Thursday night. In the messages, Petrino tells Long he appreciated how he handled the April 5 news conference in which Long placed Petrino on paid leave. Petrino was fired Tuesday for failing to disclose his relationship with Jessica Dorrell, whom he hired last month without disclosing his relationship with her or the fact he had once paid her $20,000. • NFL allowing limited casino ads: The NFL will allow teams to accept advertisements for casinos and other state-licensed gambling-related establishments during the next two seasons. Those ads can appear only in game programs, on local radio broadcasts and in the upper bowl and inner concourses of stadiums. The league told the 32 clubs on Thursday that the change in policy will allow such advertising on a limited basis from casinos in their markets.

Baseball • Indians near deal with Damon: The Cleveland Indians are close to signing veteran outfielder Johnny Damon to help awaken their struggling offense. The club has been in talks to finalize a deal with the 38-year-old, who is 277 hits shy of 3,000. Damon played with Tampa Bay — his sixth AL team — last season, batting .261 with 16 homers and 73 RBIs in 150 games. Damon would probably need some time to get ready after not being in a spring training camp. If Damon signs, the Indians would be his fourth team in four years.

NHL PLAYOFFS ROUNDUP

Rangers use big period to top Sens in Game 1 The Associated Press NEW YORK — The biggest moment of the New York Rangers’ postseason-opening win came when play was stopped, and the top-seeded team in the Eastern Conference tried to catch its breath at the bench. The Rangers were nursing a one-goal lead in the second period, but the Ottawa Senators were all over them. Coach John Tortorella used his lone timeout, and shifted momentum completely. Marian Gaborik and Brian Boyle scored minutes apart shortly after, and the Rangers rolled to a 4-2 victory over the Senators on Thursday night. “We wanted to stop slapping the puck around,” Tortorella said. “We kept smacking it back to them.” The Rangers, the No. 1 seed in the East for the first time since they won the Stanley Cup in 1994, shook off their 1-2-1 regular-season mark against the Senators and easily dispatched them in Game 1. Ryan Callahan scored in the first period, Gaborik and Boyle pushed the lead to 3-0, and Brad Richards added a goal in the third for the Rangers. New York will host the No. 8 Senators again on Saturday night before the best-of-seven series shifts to Ottawa for Games 3 and 4. “That is the way we have to play to win,” Callahan said. “We felt like we’ve been playing playoff hockey right through the season. “It’s still a long series left. Taking Game 1 doesn’t mean much.” Henrik Lundqvist was sharp early, stopping Jason Spezza on a partial breakaway and then turning aside Jim O’Brien, who weaved his way through

the New York defense before getting off an in-close drive that was knocked away. Lundqvist’s only blemishes came in the third period. Daniel Alfredsson wrecked his shutout bid at 10:05, and Erik Condra made it 4-2 with 2:19 left. Lundqvist finished with 30 saves. Craig Anderson stopped 27 shots, but it wasn’t enough for him to maintain his perfect mark at Madison Square Garden. The Senators dominated play throughout the second period, but a couple of late lapses turned a tight game into a virtual runaway. They took solace in playing a strong third period. “It was a pretty even game, but then we got off our game plan for a few minutes and it’s 4-0,” Spezza said. “We have

It also questions whether the Maloofs have the finances and motivation to keep the team in Sacramento.

Abbott says MLS wants to add a second team in the New York metropolitan area to join the Red Bulls and give the league 20 teams. He says the league has no timetable for expansion beyond that. — From wire reports

to build off what we did in the third period. Even with three straight power plays that spanned the first and second periods, the Senators were frustrated by either Lundqvist or players in front of him who dived to block shots from ever getting through. “We have to get more traffic in front of Lundqvist,” Spezza said. “They are going to block a lot of shots.

NBA SCOREBOARD Summaries

The Associated Press CHICAGO — Had he known he was going to play so poorly, Derrick Rose might have sat this one out. Good thing for him, his Chicago teammates picked up the slack. C.J. Watson scored 16 points, including the gametying three-pointer at the end of regulation, and the Chicago Bulls pulled away in overtime to beat the Miami Heat 96-86 on Thursday night. Carlos Boozer scored 19 points and Kyle Korver added 17 for the Bulls, who outscored Miami 12-2 in overtime to boost their lead in the Eastern Conference to four games. The Bulls were able to pull off the victory despite a horrible shooting night by Derrick Rose, who scored a career-low two points. LeBron James scored 30 points for Miami but missed a free throw that would have made it a two-possession game late in regulation. Dwyane Wade added 21 points, Chris Bosh scored 20, but the Heat lost for the sixth time in 11 games. “This is one of the worst feelings in the regular season I’ve had this year,” James said. Things were looking good for Miami when James nailed a three that made it

TORONTO — NHL executive Colin Campbell said Thursday that linesman Tony Sericolo erred in not whistling the play dead for offsides before Danny Briere’s first goal in Game 1 of the Penguins-Flyers series. “There’s no other way to explain it but a missed call,” the NHL’s senior executive vice president of hockey operations told The Canadian Press. “We’re as upset as Pittsburgh, almost. It’s a mistake.” Briere scored Philadelphia’s first goal on Wednesday night after being sent in on a breakaway by teammate Brayden Schenn. The long pass came immediately after a neutral-zone turnover and replays showed Briere was a couple feet offside. The play started a big comeback for the Flyers, who erased a three-goal deficit and beat Pittsburgh 4-3 in overtime. However, the Penguins refused to use it as an excuse for their collapse. “That’s not why we lost the game,” coach Dan Bylsma said immediately afterward.

His team Omega Pharma-Quick Step said Martin hit a car during his run on Wednesday and was briefly unconscious before being taken to a hospital. It said his condition on Thursday was stable and that surgery was being considered. The 26-year-old German is one of the top riders on the tour and earned 12 victories last year, including Paris-Nice and the Tour of Beijing. He is considered one of the favorites to win gold in the Olympic time trial in London. Defending champion Fabian Cancellara broke his collarbone earlier this month.

• Tigers 7, Rays 2: DETROIT — Brennan Boesch drove in four runs on his 27th birthday, leading Detroit past Tampa Bay for its fifth win in six games to start the season. Drew Smyly gave up a run in fourplus innings in his major league debut. Despite having the American League’s best record, Tigers starters have not earned a win. • Rangers 5, Mariners 3: ARLINGTON, Texas — Michael Young hit a two-run homer and had four RBIs to back Derek Holland, leading the Rangers over Seattle. Young put Texas ahead with an RBI single. Then with the Rangers leading 1-0 in the fifth inning for the third straight game, Young hit an oppositefield homer into the first row in right for a 3-0 lead against Jason Vargas (1-1). Young added a runscoring single in the eighth off Erasmo Ramirez. • Twins 10, Angels 9: MINNEAPOLIS — Justin Morneau hit a two-run, tiebreaking homer in the eighth inning and Minnesota rallied from six runs down to beat the Angels. Joe Mauer went deep, too, hitting a three-run shot off Dan Haren in the fifth that cut into a 6-0 lead the Angels built against Francisco Liriano. Every Twins batter had at least one of the team’s 20 hits, enough to make up for the 14 men left on base, including eight in scoring position.

• Giants 4, Rockies 2: DENVER — No win for the ages. Or, for that matter, the aged. Madison Bumgarner took a no-hit bid into the sixth and scattered four hits over 7 1⁄3 innings as San Francisco beat Colorado. At 49, the Rockies’ Jamie Moyer failed in his second attempt to become the oldest pitcher to win a major league game. • Dodgers 3, Pirates 2: LOS ANGELES — Chris Capuano struck out seven in his first home game with the Dodgers, who scored all of their runs in the first inning and completed a three-game sweep. The Dodgers’ 6-1 start is their best since 1981, when they went on to win the World Series. • Diamondbacks 3, Padres 1: SAN DIEGO — Ian Kennedy struck out nine in six innings to remain perfect for his career against San Diego, and Jason Kubel doubled in the go-ahead run in the sixth inning to lead Arizona to the victory. • Phillies 3, Marlins 1: PHILADELPHIA — Shane Victorino and Ty Wigginton homered, Joe Blanton pitched seven strong innings and Philadelphia beat Miami in the Marlins’ second game without suspended manager Ozzie Guillen. • Nationals 3, Reds 2: WASHINGTON — Ryan Zimmerman scored on Alfredo Simon’s wild pitch with two outs in the 10th inning, helping the Nationals extend their best start since moving to Washington. • Cubs 8, Brewers 0: CHICAGO — Matt Garza pitched three-hit ball for 8 2⁄3 innings, and the Cubs roughed up Zack Greinke to avoid a four-game sweep.

Finally, M’s set to play at home By Tim Booth The Associated Press

SEATTLE — Mariners manager Eric Wedge is all set to return to his house tonight, for the first time in nearly 2½ months. From Washington state to Arizona, to Japan, back to Arizona, to California, to Texas and finally back to the Pacific Northwest, Seattle’s two-month, transcontinental spring training/opening road trip will finally come to an end tonight when it hosts Oakland. “I was just talking to my wife — we’ve been gone forever,” Wedge said. All the traveling has been taxing on the players and coaches. But the Mariners are off to a respectable 4-4 start considering the circumstances surrounding a road trip that started in Asia and concluded in Texas. Some of the excitement about Seattle’s start was tempered by dropping three of four in Texas, but the Mariners will play the next nine games at home. Oakland, Cleveland and the Chicago White Sox come to town for three games apiece before the Mariners head out on the road again. The Mariners completed their opening road trip with a 5-3 loss to the Rangers on Thursday. All told, they traveled more than 15,000 miles by air, including 11,500 to and from Tokyo. It’s an extraordinary early season amount for a team that’s regularly among the most traveled in all of baseball. “Even by baseball standards (it’s long),” Wedge said. “Like I said to all of our guys, I think everybody’s done a really nice job of handling it well. Nobody’s complained about it. Everybody’s been on point and doing what they need to be doing.” Felix Hernandez will make his third start of the season against Oakland in the home opener. The Mariners juggled their rotation after coming back from Japan so Hernandez would get the ball when Seattle finally returned home. He’ll be greeted by a huge home crowd and the return of his own cheering section — the hugely successful “King’s Court” — stationed out near the left-field foul pole with specially designed bright yellow t-shirts and a raucous college atmosphere. “It’ll be awesome, man. It’s going to be crazy,” Hernandez said. “A lot of opening days, eh? But being at home, it’s always good.” Hernandez (1-0) was brilliant in the season opener in Tokyo, throwing eight innings and allowing only one run, only to come away without a no-decision in Seattle’s 3-1 victory that took 11 innings. Back in the U.S., Hernandez was roughed up for six runs and eight hits in 6 1⁄3 innings by the same A’s lineup, yet came away with the victory in Oakland. The rough effort against the A’s only heighted concerns about Hernandez’s velocity appearing to be down. “Actually we did well against him last time, we just gave up a few too many runs,” Oakland manager Bob Melvin said. “Hopefully we can keep that same approach. We all know what he brings to the table and what he does confidence-wise for their team, but hopefully we can gain some confidence off the last time.” Melvin will send Bartolo Colon (1-1) to the mound for his third start of the year against Seattle. Like Hernandez, Colon pitched very well in Japan, retiring the first 13 batters he faced on his way to a 4-1 A’s victory. Colon gave up just one run and three hits in eight innings.

Girls Continued from D1 Bend was a distant second at 404 on the par-72 Nicklaus Course, followed by Crook County at 410 and Redmond at 425. Mountain View was represented by just one player, but Cougar senior Hailey Ostrom shot an 87 to rank second among individual scorers for the event. Odiorne, a freshman, carded a 10-over 82 for her third tournament victory of the season. In general, scores soared above typical for nearly every player in the field, according to Bend coach Lowell Norby. “It wasn’t what it’s been all year for anybody today,” said Norby. “It was pretty cold out there, and Pronghorn is a difficult course — probably the toughest course we’ll play all year … that or Tetherow.” Summit coach Jerry Hackenbruck had much the same take.

Continued from D1 The devil, as is his custom, plunges his pitchfork into the details. Would the semifinals be played in bowls, where the bowl experience becomes a business trip and fans of the winning team would have to travel twice? Or would the semis be contested on campus? The smaller classifications make it work, but Division I-A scale is much different. National semifinals would be the second-largest productions of a season, with enormous attention from the news media. BCS bowls and NCAA Final Fours in large cities can handle the congestion. Could Manhattan, Kan., or Stillwater, Okla.? This concern has been quietly expressed. Also discussed as a four-team option would be holding the semis and final at neutral sites through a bid process not branded as bowl games. If this were a PowerPoint presentation, Cowboys Stadium and Jerry Jones would fill the screen. A piece of two of the models may work best: semifinals at bowl sites — the winner could get an Orange Bowl trophy like the AFC champion hoists the Lamar Hunt Trophy — and the finalists advance to the bidded-out College Bowl (OK, you come up with a name). Applying last year’s BCS standings, the winners between LSU-Stanford and Alabama-Oklahoma State would have met in a championship. Three other models for determining a national champion are offered in the paper, and fall into two categories: Not enough and too much. First are two ideas that aren’t bold enough. One thought is to stay the current BCS course but eliminate the limit of teams from one conference and do away with the automatic qualifiers that have kept out higher-ranked teams. The other thought is the original “plus-one,” selecting two teams after the bowls. The third model intends to preserve the Rose Bowl. The two highest-ranked teams from the Big Ten and Pac-12 would always play in Pasadena, Calif., and if it were part of a national-title structure, fine. If not, fine. The Rose Bowl was/is/always will be special and has survived the invasion from Oklahoma, Texas and TCU. The Granddaddy can keep its Big Ten/Pac12 game, dropping in the standings for a matchup if the champions are involved in a four-team playoff. But if Oregon and Wisconsin were topfour teams, they’d have to line up with the rest of college football and engage in the playoff. It doesn’t work otherwise. The commissioners have talked about more than a championship. Also on the table are models to reshape the highestprofile bowls, with matchups determined by a committee “with the aim of providing the most evenly matched and attractive games that make geographic sense for the participants.” Five to 10 bowls would be involved, and this would be the postseason experience for conference champions of non-playoff participants plus at-large teams. BCS officials meet later this month in Florida, but Hancock said no action would be taken on the postseason format’s future. Conference meetings in May and June will bring university presidents up to speed, and a new college football postseason world is expected to be unveiled by July 1, to become effective with the 2014 season. It won’t arrive with the suddenness of a motorcycle crash, but change is coming. An official close to the BCS told me recently, “Don’t be surprised if the BCS as we know it goes away.”

Aldridge Boys Continued from D1 Bend High finished second with a 330, Redmond placed third with a 339 and Crook County ended the day fourth with a score of 383. “This is a real treat,” Storm coach Mark Tichenor said about playing

the Nicklaus Course. “Like a lot of our courses here in Central Oregon, it’s a high-quality championship golf course.” Jaired Rodmaker led the Lava Bears with a 79, while Jon McGrew paced Crook County with a 91. “This is a great opportunity and a great challenge,” Tichenor said.

Kyle Wells added an 84 for Summit and Max Higlin recorded a 90 for the Storm, who look to make a run at the Class 5A state championship in May. Ortega’s 76 was especially impressive as he shot an 88 on the same course a year ago. “It’s great to see that improve-

ment,” Tichenor said. “I’m super proud. He’s our warrior.” All four teams are back on the links Monday at Bend Golf and Country Club. Today, Redmond hosts the 16-team High Desert Challenge, including Bend and Sisters, on the Ridge Course at Eagle Crest Resort.

Continued from D1 Aldridge is a finalist for the U.S. men’s basketball team that will play in the London Olympics. He told reporters on Thursday that he was unsure if he’d be recovered in time to play, and wouldn’t rush his rehab. Aldridge’s surgery is the latest blow to the Blazers in what has been a turbulent season. Before it started, Aldridge had to undergo a procedure to treat a heart condition that kept him out of training camp. On the same day that his procedure was announced, All-Star guard Brandon Roy revealed that he was retiring because of problems with both his knees, and the team said that former No. 1 draft pick Greg Oden had suffered a setback in his recovery from knee surgery. The Blazers struggled in the lockoutshortened season, and the team dismissed popular coach Nate McMillan at the NBA trade deadline. Two starters, Marcus Camby and Gerald Wallace, were traded, and Oden was waived on the same day. Although Portland (28-31) has not been eliminated from the playoffs, they are 4 1⁄2 games out of the eighth and final playoff spot in the Western Conference. The team has seven games remaining. The Blazers have gone 8-8 since McMillan’s firing under interim coach Kaleb Canales, who has been juggling his lineups to give younger players a look. Portland was coming off a 118-110 victory over Golden State on Wednesday night. “I’m very disappointed,” Aldridge said. “I feel we have a really good group of guys here. ... I feel we’re starting to find a really good rhythm together. So it’s definitely hard to do right now.”

Bend skier Kevin Healy, 25, lofts over a step-up jump in the terrain park near Skyliner chairlift at Mt. Bachelor Wednesday afternoon.

Spring Continued from D1 But after skiing hardpacked snow most of the morning, I switched to my snowboard, and I noticed the snow beginning to soften a bit just after noon. It became more forgiving, but not ideal. Now with winter back again, we’ll have to wait at least a few more days for spring conditions. Tom Lomax, the mountain manager at Bachelor, says the transition from winter snow to spring corn snow can be a three- to five-day process, a period when temperatures are above freezing during the day and below freezing at night. “Perfect corn snow, on a nongroomed run, the sun softens it up to slush, making it carvable and smooth,” Lomax says. “The tracks melt in the afternoon, and it sets up firm that night. The next day, the sun hits it and softens it up again.” In spring, the snow conditions on the mountain can change rapidly, depending on the temperature. A run that is icy and crunchy can become soft and smooth in less than an hour, according to Lomax. Some areas can also get too warm, making the slush excessively deep and sticky. Most skiers and snowboarders looking for corn snow find it off piste. But groomed runs can offer a half-inch to an inch of soft slush as well on warmer days. “A connoisseur of corn snow would prefer nongroomed slopes, just like a connoisseur of powder,” Lomax explains. “When (corn snow) is perfect, it’s somewhat like making a powder turn.” But some days when temperatures are not high enough to soften the tracked-out ungroomed slopes, venturing off the groomed runs can be a bumpy, painful endeavor. Such was the case at Bachelor on Monday, when off-piste areas were just too frozen to ski or snowboard. But on the groomed run along the Summit chairlift, the wind was transporting “fresh” snow across the slope in some spots, making for nearly an inch of powder that I turned through effortlessly on my skis. It had not snowed in three days, but there I was, skiing fresh snow. Even in the spring, the wind can have a dramatic effect on snow conditions. “It’ll take any loose particles that are on the ridges, pick them up in the stream, and blow them onto areas across the slope,” Lomax says of the wind. “That can really be a bonus.” After abundant March snowfall, all the areas off the summit should hold well through the spring, according to Lomax. Bachelor is scheduled to remain open through May 27 (though limited to Thursdays through Sundays beginning May 3). Spring operations begin this Monday, with only the Pine Marten, Skyliner and, weather permitting, Summit chairlifts running. The lifts will run from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Lomax says 2,000 of Bachelor’s 3,000 acres will still be

“Perfect corn snow, on a nongroomed run, the sun softens it up to slush, making it carvable and smooth. The tracks melt in the afternoon, and it sets up firm that night. The next day, the sun hits it and softens it up again.” — Tom Lomax, mountain manager at Mt. Bachelor

available to ski, with most slopes off the summit open, except the lower west side. The season closure of the Northwest Express lift this Monday will make that area inaccessible. “You can ski a lot of terrain off the west side down to the 21 Road,” Lomax says. “It brings you back to the saddle of the Cinder Cone and Leeway Run (to the Pine Marten lift).” The east side of the summit will also remain open, though snowriders must take the catch line east, as it will be closed to the west. A cut and groomed trail runs from underneath the closed Sunrise lift and back to the open Skyliner lift. “That opens up the ability

to ski the (east) backside, and Cow’s Face on the southeast side, and that’s really what is the best in the spring,” Lomax says. “That gets more sun and tends to corn up the best. The west side can get overcooked in the afternoon sun.” Another popular Central Oregon ski and snowboard area, Hoodoo Mountain Resort, plans to be open this Saturday and Sunday, and April 21-22, before closing for the season, according to mountain manager Matthew McFarland. While Bachelor currently boasts a 13-foot base of snow, Hoodoo is not far behind with 10 feet. “There’s tons of snow,” McFarland says. “It’s never a lack

of snow, it’s just a lack of interest. It’s hard to stay open for four people. But there should be some good corn snow (this weekend and next). Spring slush is always a lot of fun. I like it on a snowboard more than powder.” The forecast calls for considerable sunshine this weekend on the slopes, but winter always seems to linger. “Our opportunities for sunny spring days are pretty good,” Lomax says. “But it can be winter all the way through.” — Reporter: 541-383-0318, mmorical@bendbulletin.com

Bend rental prices are climbing By Elon Glucklich

Portland property developer Herb Hoffart and Co. has several homes for rent near Mt. Washington Drive and Skyliners Road in Bend.

The Bulletin

The competition for Central Oregon rental properties is getting fiercer, as available properties dwindle and homes on the rental market consistently see multiple applicants. That competition means many rental homes cost 20 percent more today than just a year ago. Former homeowners who lost their properties through foreclosure or short sale are adding to the region’s tenant pool, driving inventory down and prices up, local property management officials say.

Pete Erickson The Bulletin

The Central Oregon Rental Owners Association last week released its 2012 rental survey. Its findings, compiled over the

first quarter of 2012, showed that just 4.4 percent of the more than 5,700 rental units surveyed were vacant over

that time, the lowest rate since the real estate market crashed in 2008. In addition to low vacancy rates, the 2012 survey showed price increases in rental homes over the last year, and slight jumps in apartment rents. Of the 940 three-bedroom houses surveyed in Bend, for instance, rent averaged $1,231 so far this year. In 2011, rent on a three-bedroom home was $1,012. For a four-bedroom house, average rent jumped from $1,255 in 2011 to $1,489 this year. See Rentals / E4

Grocery prices up in first quarter A basket of meats, cheese and other grocery store products cost 6.9 percent more in the first quarter of 2012 than it did a year earlier, according to the American Farm Bureau Federation. A group of 16 items, including cheddar cheese, sirloin-tip roast, salad, orange juice and eggs, cost consumers $52.47 during the first three months of the year, the farm group said. During the same period last year, the price was $49.07. In the fourth quarter of 2011, it cost $49.23.

Google revenue jumps 24 percent Google Inc. reported first-quarter revenue of $10.65 billion, a 24 percent rise over the same quarter a year ago, and said it would introduce a new class of stock in what it called a “2-for-1 stock split.” For the three months ended March 31, profit totaled $2.89 billion, or $8.75 a share, compared with $1.8 billion, or $5.51; that was better than Wall Street expected. The company said its operating income was $3.39 billion, or 32 percent of revenue. — From wire reports

Andy Dunn, the founder of the online clothes retailer Bonobos, recently partnered with department store giant Nordstrom in a symbolic deal that gives Bonobos a distribution outlet and Nordstrom access to Bonobos’ online expertise.

Retailers team up to find a perfect fit By Evelyn M. Rusli New York Times News Service

When Andy Dunn helped start Bonobos five years ago, he wanted to shake up the retail industry with a menswear brand exclusively sold online. Now, Dunn, 33, is embracing the brickand-mortar model, striking a partnership with Nordstrom, the 111-year-old department store. It’s a symbiotic deal. Bonobos will get $16.4 million in cash and more than 100 stores to sell its clothes, while Nordstrom

will gain expertise on email marketing and online branding. “We’ve been thinking about where growth is going to come from across all retail over the next 10 years,” said Jamie Nordstrom, the head of Nordstrom.com and the great-grandson of the company’s founder. “And certainly square-footage growth is not where that growth is coming from.” As consumers grow increasingly comfortable online, price-wise and technology-focused, established brick-and-mortar

players and fledgling e-commerce sites are finding they need each other. With sales under pressure, traditional retailers, which have struggled to establish a unique online identity, are trying to tap into the innovative, fast-paced startup mentality. At the other end of the spectrum, young Internet companies, facing fierce competition and the limits of their growth, are warming to deals with industry giants that have substantial resources and significant distribution outlets.

When cars can talk, crashes may be avoided Ashley Halsey III The Washington Post

Fender benders, rearenders and those three-car pileups that back up traffic may be going the way of the buggy whip. Within a few years, cars whizzing down the highway will begin chatting among themselves. Once they all are equipped to join the conversation, every car will know the speed, distance and direction of every other car close enough to pose a risk. Are cars slowing abruptly just beyond that tractor-trailer you can’t see around? You may get an alert, but if there’s no time for discussion, you may just feel your brakes squeeze on. A speeding pickup truck seems likely to run the red light as you approach the intersection? Your car may decide to stop rather than put you in danger. Just as it has changed so many other aspects of life, wireless technology is about to revolutionize the way we drive. “This is really a gamechanging technology that could help cars from crashing into one another,” said Christopher Poe, assistant director at the Texas Transportation Institute. “You, in essence, could help prevent two cars from ever colliding, that being the ultimate goal.”

A simple concept The concept is fairly simple. All cars will be equipped with short-range transmitters that use dedicated bandwidth to send information 10 times per second about where they are and what they are doing. The transmitters also will receive and make sense of the same information from every other vehicle within range. The car will decide whether to give a heads-up to the driver or take appropriate defensive action itself. A driver alert could be a verbal warning, a seat vibration or a slight jerk on the seat belt.

Foreclosure activity dropped to near 5-year low in March By Alex Veiga The Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — More U.S. homes are entering the foreclosure process, setting the stage for a surge in properties repossessed by lenders this year. The number of homes that received first-time foreclosure notices rose 7 percent in March from the previous month, foreclosure listing firm RealtyTrac Inc. said Thursday. That marks the third consecutive monthly increase this year and reflects stepped-up efforts by banks to take action against homeowners who fail to keep up with mortgage payments. “We’re not out of the woods yet with foreclosures,” said Daren Blomquist, a

“We’re not out of the woods yet with foreclosures. There are more batches of foreclosures coming through the pipeline.” — Daren Blomquist, vice president, RealtyTrac

vice president at RealtyTrac. “There are more batches of foreclosures coming through the pipeline.” Foreclosure activity, as measured by the number of homes receiving foreclosure-related notices, slowed sharply in the fall of 2010 when claims surfaced that some banks and mortgage

servicers were processing foreclosures without verifying documents. A $25 billion settlement reached in February between the nation’s biggest mortgage lenders and state officials has paved the way for banks to take action on unpaid mortgages, many of which have been in a procedural limbo for months or years. And it’s those homes that could ultimately be foreclosedupon and end up back on the market. Foreclosures typically sell at a discount to other homes and can drag down the value of neighboring properties, so the prospect of more foreclosures means it could take longer for home prices in some areas to bounce back.

FRIDAY, APRIL 13, 2012 • THE BULLETIN

Cars Continued from E1 “The technology is solid, but you have to prove that the right type of data can be moved from one vehicle to another vehicle and that vehicle could take action on that data,” said Poe, whose institute is a leading research agency affiliated with Texas A&M University. It could cut highway fatalities and injuries by more than half, eliminating billions of dollars in medical bills. It could reduce by millions more what it costs to repair damage from the more than 6 million crashes each year. By governing the flow of traffic with real-time information, it can reroute drivers to avoid congestion and reduce time and fuel wasted while stuck in traffic. “This connected vehicle technology could address about 80 percent, or four out of five, of all the unimpaired driving crashes in America,” said Ron Medford, deputy director of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Nearly half of all crashes examined by the Highway Loss Data Institute in 2007 were rear-end collisions, a type of accident that information swapping between cars could virtually eliminate. “It’s really a communications technology,” Poe said. “You don’t have to wait a decade for this to happen. Because technology is moving so fast, you will get some applications that will be developed in the interim. You will still see companies and entrepreneurs trying to develop additional applications.”

Vehicle-to-Infrastructure NHTSA hopes a pilot program with 3,000 cars under way in Ann Arbor, Mich., will prove the reliability of the technology. The testing of vehicle-to-vehicle communication, or V2V, continues through summer 2013, and if all goes well officials plan to grapple with the policy issues by the end of next year. V2V is just half of the technological equation. Even while it is busy chatting with other vehicles, the car trans-

“This connected vehicle technology could address about 80 percent, or four out of five, of all the unimpaired driving crashes in America.”

Connecting cars via wireless communication The Transportation Department and the auto industry are developing vehicle collision avoidance systems that use wireless, short-range technology to let vehicles communicate their speed, location and direction of travel with each other. The goal is to increase driver awareness of surroundings and better manage traffic congestion. Here’s how it may work.

VEHICLE-TO-VEHICLE COMMUNICATION (V2V)

VEHICLE-TO-INFRASTRUCTURE COMMUNICATION (V2I)

A transmitter in each vehicle sends data 10 times per second up to 1,000 feet away to broadcast its speed, direction and movement.

A transmitter in a vehicle sends a request to a traffic light signal for priority to pass through the intersection.

Each car’s transponder relays information to the driver via audible or sensory alerts. The information can also be sent to a passenger’s mobile device.

If the traffic light transponder does not detect other vehicles present, the signal’s controller extends the green light for the approaching vehicle.

Cristina Rivero / The Washington Post mitter also will be talking on the same short-range bandwidth with helpful friends at the roadside. This is called vehicle-toinfrastructure, or V2I, communication, and it provides the car with a steady stream of useful information — for example, about an accident or work zone that is slowing traffic just over the next hill. Linked with a couple of useful tools, such as the Global Positioning System, V2I could suggest a bailout route that would get you home faster. V2I also communicates with traffic signals. With reliable V2I information, the dream commute of catching green lights all the way home would not require special alignment of the stars. “You can adjust traffic signals to allow more traffic to travel through what we call the green band, so they don’t get stopped as much,” said Poe, who specializes in V2I research. “If you have the roadside talking to the vehicle, you can tell the driver, ‘Hey, if you drive at this speed you’re less likely to hit red lights,’ and where you lose a lot of your fuel efficiency

adaptive headlights, which respond to the direction and speed of the vehicle, about a third of fatal crashes and 20 percent of those that result in injury could be prevented or mitigated. The current generation of devices also may be integrated into V2V systems as they begin to find their way to the dashboard. “The connected vehicle, that’s probably going to come on a little slower than some of the other concepts, because V2V only really works once every vehicle is equipped with this technology,” said Adrian Lund, president of the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. “To be honest with you, I think that where V2V may be most useful isn’t safety — it’s congestion management. I don’t want to dismiss the potential safety benefits. I just think they’re farther off.” Some devices on the mar-

is stopping and accelerating from a dead stop.”

Already on the road It may take a decade or longer before all vehicles are fully equipped, but the vanguard of what is to come already is in evidence on U.S. roadways. Acura, for example, made a big advertising buy during the recent NCAA basketball tournament to tout its backup sensors, which apply the brakes automatically to avert danger. It is among several automobile manufacturers that are using infrared distance sensors, radar and cameras to provide warnings about safe distances and when other vehicles are sliding dangerously into the next lane. Those and similar advancements that preceded V2V are expected to significantly reduce accidents, which the Insurance Information Institute said cost more than $1 billion in claims in 2010. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety estimated that if all passenger vehicles were equipped with forward collision warning, lane departure warning, side-view assist and

ket, and many more apps coming soon, provide drivers with real-time help in routing around traffic trouble spots. But the combination of V2V and V2I provides data more immediately than traffic cameras or the network of location sensors now installed on many trucks and fleet vehicles. If a great many cars suddenly slow a mile ahead, V2V could recommend that a driver take the next exit. If traction control is triggered on several cars just head, V2V could send a warning to be alert for slippery conditions.

Implementation Unless the federal government makes V2V mandatory, as it did with air bags and seat belts, it could take 10 to 20 years before most cars are equipped. But drivers could be encouraged to buy V2V equipment more rapidly if

companies that make smartphones and GPS devices see a market edge in incorporating V2V and V2I applications. “If it costs a whole lot to retrofit, that’s going to be a tough sale,” Lund said. “But if you lived in a place like San Francisco or Washington, D.C., where the commutes can be pretty horrible, then if there’s something you could buy that would give you an advantage in knowing how to avoid congestion in real time, I think there might be a market for that.” Although no one is willing to put a price tag on a V2V transmitter, there’s general agreement that they would be less expensive than an array of cameras and sensors. Medford said that NHTSA has anticipated public fear that transmitters could be used to keep track of people but that the nature of the system does not allow that. “It is just a message that is received and acted on in the vehicle,” Medford said. “Nothing is retained, and nothing is identified in that message.” Lund theorized that one way to get the system fully functioning more quickly would be to equip all vehicles with a bare minimum of a transmitter that sends a signal indicating it’s position. “Then, vehicles that had smarter systems could at least know where they were and react to them,” Lund said. “But that’s all to be figured out. It’s kind of like ‘Star Wars.’ ”

applications for Appleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s iPad and iPhone devices. Last year, Nordstrom put more than 6,000 mobile hand-held devices in its stores for easy checkout and inventory lookup. Nordstrom, which has a large, carefully curated menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s store, was initially interested in a simple distribution deal with Bonobos, a brand popular with well-to-do young professionals who fancy crisp plaid shirts and red chambray pants. But the retailer developed a deeper interest after taking a closer look at Bonobosâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; operations and how it engaged with its online audience. Nordstrom was particularly impressed with Bonobosâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; emails to consumers, which included customized elements and links to quirky YouTube videos that werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t related to fashion but appealed to Bonobosâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; male clientele. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We certainly thought: Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a way we can help them and they can help us,â&#x20AC;? Nordstrom said.

Continued from E1 In March 2011, the pharmacy chain Walgreen acquired its online rival Drugstore.com for roughly $409 million. One month later, Wal-Mart Stores paid about $300 million for Kosmix, a social-media startup that now serves as the retailerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lab for building and testing new Web and mobile applications. The worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest retailer also owns a controlling stake in Yihaodian, a fast-rising online retailer in China. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These guys are usually slow and lumbering giants,â&#x20AC;? said Sucharita Mulpuru, a Forrester Research analyst. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But they need to make proactive investments. Because, left to their own devices, they could never emulate these businesses.â&#x20AC;?

Nordstrom gets proactive Nordstrom has been among the most aggressive retailers online. Last February, it acquired HauteLook, for $180 million in stock; the takeover of the â&#x20AC;&#x153;flash salesâ&#x20AC;? site was the first of its kind for a traditional retailer. Nordstrom is also a lead investor in Sole Society, a shoe subscription service that was spun out of HauteLook. The retailer is also retooling its own site to compete with upstarts. Nordstrom.com has introduced same-day shipping in certain markets and it has

Online laboratories For a big retailer like Nordstrom, such e-commerce bets donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have all that much impact on the bottom line. In late 2010, Bonobos was averaging a little more than $1 million in sales each month. By comparison, Nordstrom recorded net sales of more than $10 billion last year. Instead, retailers see the

ventures as an opportunity to improve their practices, using their online partners as laboratories where they can develop new e-commerce strategies. Kosmix, renamed WalmartLabs, is an experimental factory for social media applications. Since joining Wal-Mart last April, the team has introduced a mobile app for gift-giving, improved the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s online search function, and started a Web competition called â&#x20AC;&#x153;Get on the Shelf,â&#x20AC;? where small businesses compete to sell their products in Wal-Mart stores. Nordstromâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s online effort has already been influenced by its purchases. In the last year, the company has improved the personalization and targeting of emails to consumers, mirroring efforts by HauteLook. Such tweaks have increased engagement â&#x20AC;&#x153;pretty significantly,â&#x20AC;? according to Jamie Nordstrom. The new relationship could be equally advantageous to Bonobos, which is dealing with rising competition online. The hope is that the Nordstrom partnership will expose Bonobos to new clients, particularly those who may not be shopping online. Although Nordstrom may cannibalize some of Bonobosâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; existing sales, Dunn, the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chief executive, said any loss in direct sales would be offset by the marketing benefits.

Continued from E1 Those increases can be attributed to a growing demand for rental houses â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a demand that is outpacing apartments for the time being, said Kevin Restine, president of the rental association and general manager of Plus Property Management in Bend. As foreclosures and short sales push more families out of their homes, many are looking to move into rental houses instead of apartments, because a house is what theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re used to, Restine said. As a result, demand for rental houses has shot up each of the last few years, and prices have followed. The rental market â&#x20AC;&#x153;will continue to be driven primarily by the foreclosuresâ&#x20AC;? that are still taking their toll on the for-sale market, Restine said. Though the number of default notices in Central Oregon is down notably from 2009 and 2010, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to continue to see people lose their homes, and continue to see people that used to be homeowners become tenants.â&#x20AC;? The annual survey covers prices and vacancy rates for apartments, duplexes, triplexes and homes in Bend and other Central Oregon communities. The whole regionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 4.4 percent vacancy rate is down from 5.2 percent last year. As recently as 2009, more

Foreclosure Continued from E1 The U.S. housing market remains weak, even after the best winter for home sales in five years and steady improvement in the job market. Home prices are now back to 2002 levels, according to the Standard & Poorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s/CaseShiller U.S. home price index. Rather than a large wave of bank-owned homes crashing onto the market at once, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s likely the new crop of foreclosures will arrive in smaller waves throughout the year, Blomquist said. Still, many of the homes entering the foreclosure process now are properties with loans that have gone unpaid for a long time, not instances of borrowers just starting to

than 12 percent of Central Oregonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rental properties were vacant.

Area-specific

most of its rental units. When demand is as high as it is, she said, companies can get away with price increases.

Today, rental companies like Austin Property Management say up to twice as many prospective renters are coming through the door than in the years leading up to, and immediately after, the 2008 real estate crash. Particularly on Bendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s west side, competition for apartments and rental houses is driving prices up, said Stephanie Kramer, coowner of Austin Property Management. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s area-specific,â&#x20AC;? Kramer said of price increases. West Bend rentals â&#x20AC;&#x153;are higher in demand than the east side, which is why we havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been able to raise (prices) as much on east-side properties.â&#x20AC;? Across the board, most types of apartments have gotten a bit more expensive over the past year. A one-bedroom apartment in Bend averaged $549 in the first quarter of 2012, up from $521 last year. Other units saw increases in the $10- to $30-a-month range. Competition for apartments is just as tough as for rental homes, said Andee Jessee, co-owner of A Superior Property Management Co. in Bend. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I would say thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just more people moving to the area,â&#x20AC;? despite the recession, Jessee said. Her company is seeing multiple applicants for

In-migration

fall behind. That suggests the possibility that the number of homes at risk of foreclosure could begin to taper off once banks tackle the crop of homes with long-overdue mortgage payments. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The faster we can move some of these old foreclosures through the pipeline, the faster the market can be in a place to recover,â&#x20AC;? Blomquist said. At the end of last year, some 1.5 million U.S. homes had mortgages that had gone unpaid at least 90 days, according to Mortgage Bankers Association data. First-time foreclosure notices, such as warnings of initial default, are the first step in the process that can potentially result in a home being foreclosed upon. Homes can exit the process if the overdue

payments are paid. Sometimes, a bank will allow that the home be sold for less than what the borrower owes on their mortgage, a so-called short sale. All told, 101,939 U.S. homes received a first-time notice in March, the biggest monthly increase since October, RealtyTrac said. Thirty-one states posted a monthly increase in homes with a first-time foreclosure notice. Nevada led the pack with an increase of 153 percent. Even so, foreclosure activity overall â&#x20AC;&#x201D; as measured by the number of properties receiving a notice of default, scheduled for auction or repossessed by lenders â&#x20AC;&#x201D; sank in March to the lowest level since July 2007, the firm said.

Kramer with Austin Property Management guessed that 50 percent of the prospective tenants coming through her companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s doors are people considering moving into the area â&#x20AC;&#x201D; most of them from California. A lot of those new residents seem to be looking at rentals instead of purchase properties, she said, adding that the trend could be a case of housing market jitters keeping them from jumping into an investment like buying a home. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of people who have the money (to buy) are just renting, because they maybe want to check the area out for a year or so,â&#x20AC;? Kramer said. Restine with Plus Property Management pointed to a 6 percent vacancy rate as healthy for the local market. Anything significantly higher means property owners arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t finding qualified applicants. But when itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lower, like the current vacancy rate at 4.4 percent, renters can hit the point where theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll need to rely on new construction to replenish supply. The low vacancy rate â&#x20AC;&#x153;could motivate people to build,â&#x20AC;? spurring demand for new construction, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Reporter: 541-617-7820 eglucklich@bendbulletin.com

The bard of the bar • Todd Snider talks about his local watering hole, his attitude, and why he might be done making records By Ben Salmon The Bulletin

usic publications of all stripes have been clamoring to write about Todd Snider in the wake of his excellent new album “Agnostic Hymns & Stoner Fables,” which came out last month and has garnered the veteran singer-songwriter some of the best reviews of his two-decade-old career. The thing is, when you read those articles, you end up reading almost as much about Drifters, a modest bar in Nashville’s East End neighborhood, as you do about Snider. “I got to look at the interviews I’ve been doing lately and they owe me (some) drinks, man,” Snider said in a scratchy drawl that sounds like a guy who puts the “stoner” in stoner fables. “When I get home I’m taking a pile of articles in and going, ‘Look, man … I shouldn’t have to pay for a drink for two days.’” If Drifters has received free publicity from the hubbub around “Hymns,” it’s probably a fair trade. After all, Snider — who’ll bring a full band to the Tower Theatre on Tuesday (see “If you go”) — lives within walking distance of the bar and finds plenty of inspiration for his songs in the place and its people.

Last Band Standing By Ben Salmon The Bulletin

f you were to make a list of events that provide exposure for a wide swath of Central Oregon’s bands, it wouldn’t take long before you wrote down the words Last Band Standing. Now in its third year, LBS is both a showcase of local musical talent and a battle of the bands, even if organizers like to play down the competition aspect of the whole thing. But the fact is, over the next two months, 28 locally based bands will gather in small groups each Thursday (except May 31) at Century Center and play their hearts out in hopes of winning votes from the audience at the end of the night. Whoever wins the most votes — two bands from each qualifying week — will move on to the semifinals on June 7 and June 14. Four of those 12 semifinalists will advance to the finals on June 21.

returns

Last year’s winner was ska powerhouse Necktie Killer. In 2010, hip-hop band Mosley Wotta took the title. There’s more than just a title at stake, however. Top finishers in the contest will take home $20,000 in prizes, said Jennifer Meyer of Meyer Media, which is producing the event. Those prizes include three days of recording time at Ninkasi Studios in Eugene, a vehicle for loading up the band and going on tour, a photo shoot, tacos for a year, music gear, and marketing tools to help with promotion. Last year’s winners — LBS happens in other cities, too, like Eugene, Boise and Bellingham, Wash. — were also included on a compilation of Northwest music included in packages of Ninkasi beer that were distributed in five states.

Meyer tweaked Last Band Standing a bit this year. First of all, it’s moving back to Thursday nights, where it started in 2010. Last year’s shows were held on Friday nights, when there is a lot more for music lovers to do around town. But more importantly, the 2012 version of LBS is open to bands with members at least 18 years old. The 21+ rule of previous years has been abolished in hopes of attracting new blood. “This year we (are) digging a little deeper into bands that are just getting their feet wet,” Meyer said. However, attendees must still be at least 21 years old. And while Last Band Standing is free

to get into, you must have a free ticket to vote for your favorite band. Tickets can be picked up at all sponsor locations, and they’ll be available at the door, too. One last addition this year: LBS is also putting on Free Music Mondays at Amalia’s Mexican Restaurant in downtown Bend, with a lineup that features mostly bands in this year’s competition. For more info on Last Band Standing, visit www.lastband standing.net. You can also keep up with who’s competing and who’s moving on in GO!

We have a pair of tickets each to see Huey Lewis and the News, The Shins, Beck, Norah Jones and Tenacious D this summer at Les Schwab Amphitheater in Bend, and we don’t know what to do with them. So we’re giving them away! Tune into The Bulletin’s music blog, Frequency, to find out how you can win. But don’t delay … the contest for the Huey Lewis tickets ends today!

www.bendbulletin.com/frequency From Page 3 “I did a lot of my work there this time,” he said in a telephone interview last week. “I go there Sunday mornings … and sometimes I’ll go down for happy hour. It’s the same group of people all the time. “Even (as) a kid in Memphis, I’d get up really early and I’d work on my songs until about 2 in the afternoon, and then I’d walk down to the bar and fall in with that day-drinkin’ crowd,” Snider said. “And there’s always somebody saying something that I end up using. Stuff like ‘That don’t cut no ice with me.’ Just different ways people talk.” (It should be noted here that when Snider says he was a kid in Memphis, he means when he was a younger man. He was born and raised in the Portland area, moved to Texas, and then on to Memphis, where he got a record deal. He has lived in Nashville for the past 12 years.) Snider’s neighborhood is rife with songwriters and aspiring career musicians, and despite his success in the industry — or perhaps because of it — he tends to lay low at Drifters. He blends in. He’s one voice among the chatter. “I just like to sit around and listen to it. And I don’t write it on a napkin in the moment like an ass,” he said. “I just remember it, you know? I don’t sit there and try to act like …” Like some barstool poet? “Yeah,” he said. “No, I’m just a drunk. Well, I try not to be too bad of one, but I probably have been a barfly most of my life, and I’m not ashamed of it. It’s just something I like. I like that environment, always have.” In case it’s not clear, Snider’s acerbic wit and affinity for life’s grittier side courses through everything he says and does, especially his songs, which are folk-rock in sound, often charged with social and/or political

commentary, and loaded with crafty lyrics that’ll make you laugh, then think, and then laugh again. This is a man, after all, who named his 2008 album “Peace Queer.” For “Agnostic Hymns,” Snider recorded in the home studio of a regular associate, Eric McConnell, and, according to his website, told the players involved he wanted to “make a mess” of a recording. “I like that cacophony kind of … chaos sound. To me, it sounds inspired and less premeditated,” he said. “I always liked records that sounded more artistically ambitious than financially ambitious. (Records that) sound like a good time. “I don’t think I like stuff that sounds like it’s done to make parents proud,” Snider said. “Like, ‘Oh, I’m glad your dad likes your record. Good for you.’” To that end, “Hymns” is a success. The album skillfully walks the line between Snider’s “Viva Satellite”-era alt-country crunch and the folksy, storytelling nature of his more recent work. But no matter the style, there is a constant: Snider’s clever, sideways view of religion, love, corporate greed, karma, and whatever other topics strike his fancy. Paste Magazine called “Hymns” a “serious contender for the album with the worst attitude of 2012.” When he hears this, Snider laughs. “I think I have a nice attitude. I don’t know if other people would agree,” he said. “But I don’t see what makes optimism such a virtue or such a noble thing. I would love it if everyone thought I was pleasant, maybe.” And then, without missing a beat, he quickly retreats: “I don’t know if I’d like that, actually.” Regardless of what others think of him, Snider says he isn’t sure how much longer he’ll be, as he calls his job, “making up songs.” As usual, it’s hard to tell if he’s serious or not. The

exchange goes like this: “I’m wrapping it up. I’m doing this Jerry Jeff thing (Editor’s note: Snider will release an album of Jerry Jeff Walker covers April 24) and then I’m gonna … quit altogether.” Wait, what? Really? “I mean, I think I should stop making records, yeah. I may go out and try to tour for a while and really … work on my guitar playing and learning my old songs … but I think I’ve said the s--t I need to say. I don’t see any reason for me to say more s--t. People have given me plenty of attention.” Even after releasing a critically acclaimed and (relatively) commercially successful album? Even as your reputation as a songwriter continues to grow? “You gotta ask yourself how many songs the world needs, you know? God. There’s already so many, and in my neighborhood, I promise you, there’s 10 since me and you started talking. There’s 10 more songs in this poor world,” Snider said. “Maybe there could be something else I could write … maybe a bunch of love songs, (but) that last bit felt like the last bit of throw-up, the bile part. I like it. I think it might be my favorite one. But I (also) think I might’ve said what I was supposed to say, if I was even supposed to say anything.” It sounds far-fetched to think Snider is done making records. But if he chooses to go that route, at least he has a bar to hang out at back home. He thinks. “If people don’t start showing up (there) now just to give me a bunch of s--t, then I’ll have to switch. I should’ve kept my mouth shut. I should’ve said it was something else,” he said. “No, but I wanted those free drinks. I’ll take the free drinks.” — Reporter: 541-383-0377, bsalmon@bendbulletin.com

PAGE 6 • GO! MAGAZINE The White Buffalo returns to Bend It’s amazing to see the progression of The White Buffalo over the past few years. When he first started regularly playing in Central Oregon, the man his parents call Jake Smith seemed to be a mysterious, vagabond troubadour, a little-known name with no web presence and only some self-released recordings to his name. Over the next couple of years, he’d stop in Bend once or twice a year, packing rooms and wowing folks with sturdy, stirring folk songs and the voice of God. Outside Bend, you could see things happening, too. Now in early 2012, The White Buffalo is releasing his muchanticipated new album “Once Upon a Time in the West” on a well-connected indie label, and he has tastemakers at National Public Radio and Billboard paying attention. And then there’s this little mention from The New Yorker: “He has a deeply resonate voice that comes from the same cavern where Leonard Cohen’s can be found, echoing in the darkness. On his new album … Smith and his band work up breezy folk-rock songs and ballads that will stop you in your tracks.” The New Yorker catches on to what we’ve known for years ’round here. Feels good, doesn’t it?

music The White Buffalo, with Shireen Amini and Kylan Johnson; 9 p.m. Monday, doors open 8 p.m.; $12 in advance (outlets listed at the website below), $15 at the door; The Annex, 51 N.W. Greenwood Ave., Bend; www.random presents.com.

All the way from the Bay: Roach Gigz In 2012, the Bay Area hiphop scene comprises quite the cast of characters. There’s E-40, Too $hort and Hieroglyphics: legends still grinding. Rising gangsta stars like Andre Nickatina and The Jacka. Eccentric Internet sensations Mistah F.A.B. and Lil B. Plus whatever you wanna call Kreayshawn. And then there’s Roach Gigz, a young, cocky and talented rapper who knows how to be both foul-mouthed and funny, often within the same stanza. Born and raised in San Francisco, the guy’s songs — you can find tons on YouTube — are a bracing mix of rap-standard boasts and drug/ drink/sex-fueled rhymes, but also sly observational humor, all delivered in a distinctive, unconventional cadence. A Roach Gigz track is full of stylistic and thematic twists and turns, and in hip-hop, that’s welcome, a fact evident in the kudos he has received

Players Bar & Grill hosts Matt Hopper

Upcoming Concerts

We here at GO! Magazine hate to say we told you so but, uh … well, we’ve been telling you for a few years now that Alaska/Idaho pop-rock wunderkind Matt Hopper was destined for bigger things, given a break here or there. The evidence? Mainly Hopper’s songs, which are swaggering slabs of psychedelic pop-rock with hints of Stonesy blues that shine through on a regular basis. The guy can write a hook, and then another, and then another, ad infinitum. Go to www.matt hopper.com, click on “Music” and listen to his “Jersey Finger” album for oodles of proof. Hopper’s also got a natural rock star quality and he’s a hard-working dude who’s spent a ton of time on the road over the years selling the sound. It’s paying off. Later this month, Hopper and his Roman Candles band will headline Boise’s Knitting Factory, a venue with a capacity of 1,000. Players Bar & Grill, where Hopper’s playing in Bend tonight, holds … not 1,000. So go see him in a place that small while you still can. Matt Hopper, with Matt Lewis; 9 tonight; $7 plus fees in advance at www.bendticket. com, $10 at the door; Players Bar & Grill, 25 S.W. Century Drive, Bend; www.p44p.biz.

Eugene’s Basin & Range comes to town. Thanks in large part to the presence of a saxophone and an attraction to deep, instrumental grooves, there are times when B&R’s new album, “Is My Sound Working?” sounds a lot like ESO, especially on tracks like “The Spread” and “Basilisk.” But whatever electro-dabbling the Empty Spacers were inclined to do, Basin & Range takes a step or two further, employing synthesized squiggles to settle into disco-funk jams like “Talk to the Fatman” and “Dance Whisperer.” Overall, it’s a good time, especially if you’re, say, hanging out in a bar and just want to noodledance the night away. Find ‘em (and a stream of the new album) at www .basinandrangeband.com. Basin & Range, with DJ Harlo; 10 p.m. Saturday; $3; The Astro Lounge, 939 N.W.

T H E RIVER PIG S Submitted photo

The River Pigs release new CD F

or six years, The River Pigs have been one of the hardest working bar bands in Central Oregon, holding down regular gigs at spots like Northside Bar & Grill, The Owl’s Nest in Sunriver, and The Riverhouse, plus choice slots at local festivals such as the Bend Roots Revival. But unless you caught them live, it was hard to hear the Pigs’ fun and finely tuned mix of covers and originals. That changes this weekend, when the band releases “When Pigs Fly,” its long-awaited debut album. “Pigs” is an eight-track tour of The River Pigs’ wide range of soulful sounds, which stretch from Jeff Leslie’s twangy blues (“Going Down in Memphis,” “Easy to Love You”) to Scott Foxx’s Celtic-flavored fiddle jams (“Barnhouse”) and gritty, slow-burning rockers (“What’s the Color of a Hero”) to Thomas T.’s “Blue Reggae,” a tune

that needs no description. The album features plenty of Thomas T.’s work on the bass and Jeff Ingraham’s drums, but both have since left the band to focus on playing with Mosley Wotta and Merle Haggard, respectively. Their replacements, Val Billington and Scott Wyatt, contributed to the recording, too. You can dig deeper into the band at www.the riverpigs.com. Leslie, Foxx, Billington and Wyatt will showcase their stylistic diversity during two CD-release shows tonight and Saturday at one of their favorite ol’ haunts, the Northside Bar. It’s two of the band members’ birthdays, too, so go out and help ’em celebrate! The River Pigs; 8:30 tonight and 8:30 p.m. Saturday; $2; Northside Bar & Grill, 62860 Boyd Acres Road, Bend; www.theriverpigs.com.

Rascal Flatts “CHANGED” Big Machine Records Rascal Flatts is the union of a kick in the gut and a warm bath, the tension between feeling as assault and feeling as salve. That’s in the lyrics, sure, but just as often in the song structures themselves, which veer between high-drama up-tempo numbers and higherdrama ballads. Fluency in ballads is what’s made Rascal Flatts into one of the most successful country acts of the last decade. The frontman Gary LeVox has a gargantuan voice, steeped in Nashville’s pathos if not its twang. What’s notable at the beginning of the sometimes rowdy (for this group) “Changed,” its eighth album, is LeVox’s willingness to tone it down. He subjugates himself

to the music, which on the single, “Banjo,” and “Hot in Here” is lighthearted and loose and, unlike some of this group’s grand slow songs, very affirmedly country. “Can’t take a breath without getting sick/ I’ve had enough of this concrete jungle,” LeVox sings on “Banjo,” adding later, “Sometimes you gotta go beyond the pavement.” That’s a mandate this group has often avoided, but on this album has largely taken to heart, perhaps as a rejoinder to groups like Lady Antebellum and Little Big Town, which have effectively blended country’s urban and rural impulses. And so even though there are hints here of the ambitious melancholy that’s become this group’s trademark (for instance, “Hurry Baby,”) what stands out are the new moods, on songs like the jumpy “She’s Leaving,” which cloaks hurt in a sparkly package. — Jon Caramanica, The New York Times

“PINK FRIDAY: ROMAN RELOADED” Universal Records Nicki Minaj is a one-of-a-kind talent. That’s why her decision to spend so much time trying to be anyone but herself on “Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded” makes so little sense. The first half of “Roman Reloaded” is the Nicki we’ve come to love. The pride of Jamaica, Queens, is brash and in your face, messing with gender roles and delivering all sorts of zingers. In first-rate hip-hop like “I Am Your Leader,” where she holds her own

Of Monsters and Men “MY HEAD IS AN ANIMAL” Universal Republic Records Of Monsters and Men take the sonics of Arcade Fire and the psychedelic, Earth-loving images of their Icelandic homeland and mold them into something gorgeous and uplifting on their debut, “My Head Is an Animal.” On “Mountain Sound,” the sextet from Reykjavik conjures

with Rick Ross and Cam’ron, and “Champion,” where she takes on Nas and Young Jeezy, Minaj cements her rep as hip-hop’s brightest new star. When she pays tribute to Jay-Z in “HOV Lane” and faces off with Lil Wayne in the

vese (among others) to bear on her subtly layered productions. Save for two riveting tunes coproduced with rapper Q-Tip (their “Crowned & Kissed” is one of the album’s high points) and two covers (Wayne Shorter, Stevie Wonder), this is Spalding’s shining hour. She pens smartly emotional lyrics for Shorter’s “Endangered Species” and turns it into rubbery bop-pop. — A.D. Amorosi, The Philadelphia Inquirer

“WORSHIP SOUL” EMI Gospel The excellent gospel singer Anita Wilson can sometimes sound as if she’s going to put down the microphone and tell you about company policy. On her first album, “Worship Soul,” her voice is bright, clear, amiable, professional. Her long tones are even; even when her voice deepens and roughens slightly, her phrases remain tight and effective. Like an insurer, she brings you confidence and urges you not to worry. God does his work perfectly, and as long as you believe, then hold on, wait, trust, pray, keep still. “It’s done,” she sings in one of the tracks, meaning her “healing,” her “victory.” “What I shall be, I already am,” she sings. “Worship Soul” was recorded live at Fellowship Baptist Church in Chicago, where she’s the choir director; it’s introduced by Don-

title track, she’s hard to beat. However, there’s another side to “Roman Reloaded,” where hiphop isn’t enough for Minaj. She wants to conquer pop as well. That’s where we get the current RedOne-produced single “Starships,” which is like a twisted Katy Perry song, and “Marilyn Monroe,” which is like a Rihanna ballad. This side of Minaj has her moments, in the sweaty dance pop of “Pound the Alarm” and the clubby “Whip It,” which could be mistaken for a J.Lo single. But there are way too many anonymous dance numbers like “Automatic” and “Fire Burns” that could have come from a dozen singers. — Glenn Gamboa, Newsday

a catchy vagabond indie-folk soundtrack that is begging for a Disney animated video filled with woodland creatures. Their buzzed-about hit, “Little Talks,” is a soaring, Sugarcubes-fueled, horn-filled fantasy that simultaneously floats and stomps — a fitting introduction for a band that rocks and yet seems ethereal enough to disappear at any moment. — Glenn Gamboa, Newsday

“RADIO MUSIC SOCIETY” Heads Up International If 2010’s Chamber Music Society was bassist/composer/vocalist Esperanza Spalding’s hat tip to her classical roots, this new album looks at her popping funk history and the fellow jazz players who helped make the music. Like a neo-soul Steely Dan, Spalding’s arrangements bring differently swinging drummers Terri Lyne Carrington and Jack DeJohnette, spiky guitarist Jef Lee Johnson, salty saxophonist Joe Lovano, vocalist Gretchen Palato, and keyboardist Leo Geno-

Nicki Minaj

ald Lawrence, the singer and bandleader on whose recent albums she has appeared. In his short, rousing introduction, he mentions her “tone” — an almost clinical detail to bring up at that moment. But he’s right: Her tone seems to come first, followed by the rest of her. You notice it, and keep noticing it. You need restraint to understand abandon. The ballad “Speechless” ran to nearly five minutes when it came out as a

single last year, and here it’s more than six minutes long; it doesn’t truly get good until almost halfway through. The track is a microcosm of the record, which works at maintaining a natural link between gospel and various kinds of R&B — ’70s, ’90s, current — with a band that wants to use its feeling for Sly and the Family Stone, for ParliamentFunkadelic, for D’Angelo, for J Dilla. Most of “Worship Soul” uses the language of assurance, but Wilson — who wrote most of the album’s songs, sometimes with the producer Rick Robinson — saves the language of desire for the end of the record, in a slow ballad, “More of You.” Typically, it builds its meaning as its lines repeat and repeat. “I am so desperate/ just to be closer to you,” she sings. “I give you all of me/ I need more of you.” — Ben Ratliff, The New York Times

Oasis of

Indian cuisine • As Bend’s South Asian outpost, Taj Palace is hit and miss on the food By John Gottberg Anderson The Bulletin

ate last week at a wonderful Indian restaurant in metropolitan Portland. It served to remind me how much I enjoy really good South Asian cuisine. It’s not that Bend’s Taj Palace doesn’t fill a niche in Central Oregon. Pullareddy “Reddy” Lakireddy and his family — wife, mother, son, daughter and sister-in-law, occasionally assisted by a brother from Southern California — have done a solid job since opening in early 2003. As Oregon’s only Indian restaurant east of the Cascade mountains, to the best of my

knowledge, the Taj is a solitary purveyor in this region of the food and culture of the world’s second most populous nation. The simple but colorful decor, the aromas of turmeric and coriander wafting from the kitchen and the music of sitar and tabla playing in the background offer a peek into an exotic land on the other side of the world. But this is not top-flight Indian cuisine, as I was reminded by my visit to Hillsboro’s tiny but authentic Chennai Masala restaurant. On two separate visits to Taj Palace, both before and after my Portland-area experience, I found that nothing in Bend compared.

Mood and service Taj Palace is a spacious restaurant, perhaps better known for its daily luncheon buffets and monthly belly-dancing performances than it is for its multi-course “thali” dinners. Most patrons seem to prefer tables on a raised platform above the buffet area than at a booth or table on the main floor. But no matter where they sit, they are immersed in Little India. Shiny foil ornaments, red, green and gold in color, hang from the ceiling to celebrate Diwali, the Hindu festival of lights. Never mind that it’s still seven months away, in November.

From previous page Paintings of scenes from the country’s folklore and photographs of scenic locations — including the namesake Taj Mahal palace — hang on the walls. It seems a shame that the lower sections of the walls are covered with dreary wood paneling that covers up the far more interesting red brick rising above it. There’s not much to the service. A family member will tell you to “sit anywhere,” deliver a pitcher of water and menus if you haven’t headed straight for the buffet, and ask if you want anything to drink. Even when I have come for a more elaborate dinner — “thali” includes soup, rice, naan bread, a main entree, a vegetable curry and dessert — no one has ever checked back to see if I’m satisfied with my meal.

Chicken and meats In southern India, vegetarianism is the norm. In northern India, meats are more widely consumed. And chicken, as often as not, is the meat of choice. I have had the opportunity to taste five different chicken dishes at the Taj, with varying results. My favorite is chicken makhani, tender chunks of boneless chicken cooked in a creamy, butter-based tomato sauce. Tandoori chicken was a big disap-

The lunch buffet at Taj Palace in Bend.

Buffet dining Indeed, I may not be. While I like the mildly piquant spice level (hot sauces are available for diners who need a boost), I find myself unimpressed with many of the foods I’ve eaten at Taj Palace. Spinach-and-onion pakora, an appetizer deep-fried in chickpea flour, was too heavy for my taste. Fried vegetables — okra with peas and potatoes, cabbage with carrots and onions — seemed greasy, or at least oily. A yellow-lentil dhal with spinach and eggplant was pasty and uninviting in flavor. Zucchini masala was overcooked. But a couple of saag (creamed spinach) plates — saag paneer with squares of cottage cheese, vege saag with mushrooms, cauliflower and tomatoes — were very palatable. And a savory mushroom curry with button mushrooms, peas, onions, tomatoes and chickpeas in a brown sauce were good as well. I also liked two soups that I sampled. Sambar is a thick and peppery lentil-vegetable soup with onions, tomatoes and carrots. Rasan is a spicy curried soup with tamarind, along with onions, green peppers and whole chilies. Both are a better choice than the one-time British colonial standard, mulligatawny, which I did not see offered here.

pointment. I normally like chicken and other dishes that are marinated in yogurt and herbs, then baked in a tandoor, a traditional Indian clay oven. Here, on both of my recent visits, I found it tough and overcooked. And that also affected the chicken tikka masala, a dish that features tandoori chicken in a creamy tomato-and-coriander sauce. Chicken karai, whose meat was cooked with bell peppers and onions, was tasty enough. But chili chicken, breaded and fried, was bland and flavorless. Among other meat dishes, lamb vindaloo was excellent. Tender, boneless pieces of meat were cooked with potatoes in a mildly spicy brown sauce. Raita, a homemade yogurt with minced onions, cucumbers and tomatoes, perfectly complemented the lamb. A pork curry, served with potatoes in an orange sauce, was decent. But kima curry, featuring ground beef with peas and onions, reminded me of taco filling from a drive-thru.

Bread and rice The best thing from the Taj’s tandoor was the warm naan bread. A yeasty flatbread, it is excellent with the hummus-like coconut chickpea dip offered as a condiment. I prefer the restaurant’s biryani rice — seasoned with yellow saffron and tossed with peas, carrots, corn and beans — instead of plain white rice.

My favorite dessert was rice kheer, a warm pudding made with coconut milk. But I have friends who prefer the Taj’s mango custard with apple slices. And for those without a sweet tooth, orange slices and cantaloupe chunks are also available for dessert. The restaurant has a full bar, but I find the best beverage to wash down spicy Indian food is an Indian beer. Three different import brands are offered. — Reporter: janderson@bendbulletin.com

Children of Terezin Concentration Camp get acquainted with a new arrival in a rehearsal for Bend Experimental Art Theatre’s production of “And a Child Shall Lead,” a drama opening tonight at 2nd Street Theater in Bend.

‘PASSIVE RESISTANCE’ • BEAT stages two productions of Holocaust play ‘And a Child Shall Lead’ By David Jasper The Bulletin

mong the infamous Nazi concentration camps that dotted Europe during World War II, Terezin, an 18th-century Czech fortress north of Prague, was uniquely poised as a temporary home to Jewish artists, musicians, writers and thinkers. Early in the war, Hitler sent them there thinking they could prove useful entertaining him or his troops, according to Leila Smith-Daines,

director of Bend Experimental Art Theatre’s (BEAT) production of the play “And a Child Shall Lead,” set in Terezin. It opens tonight at 2nd Street Theater (see “If you go”). “They made it a way station for all the Jewish intelligentsia,” explained Howard Schor, executive director of BEAT. Having just wrapped up the musical “Annie Get Your Gun” last weekend at Bend High School, the growing company is in the midst of staging two separate productions of “And

a Child Shall Lead,” written by Michael Slade. Schor notes that along with death camps and work camps — think Treblinka or Auschwitz — lesser-known camps such as Terezin served as way stations before Jews could be sent to parts unthinkable. The Nazis “had the bright idea … of making it a showplace, to show the world and the Red Cross how well they treated Jews,” Schor said. “They actually did a film about this

great camp called Terezin, but behind the scenes they were killing people, and shipping them out.” Nearly 200,000 men, women and children passed through the gates of Terezin, according to www .jewishvirtuallibrary.org. At least some sent to the camp used their time there to create poetry, art and more. The site puts the number of drawings discovered at Terezin at 6,000. When the camp was liberated, “they found all of these artistic artifacts there, poems, a symphony,” Schor said. Continued next page

If you go What: “And a Child Shall Lead” When: Opens tonight at 7 p.m., with performances at 7 p.m. Thursdays through Saturdays, 2 p.m. Sundays, through April 22 Where: 2nd Street Theater, 220 N.E. Lafayette Ave., Bend Cost: $15, $10 for ages 18 and younger, available at www .beattickets.org Contact: www.beatonline.org or 541-419-5558

From previous page “They had art classes, they had an underground newspaper. It was kind of a hotbed of culture because all these artists and intellectuals were there before they shipped them out. … It was kind of this weird thing where they were doing all this artwork, and then they were gone.” Slade gained permission from the Czech government to visit archives, resulting in “And a Child Shall Lead.” The play strings together stirring moments in which children are torn from their families and forced into one of the 20th century’s cruelest moments. They perform acts that serve as a testament to their humanity, defying their captors by stealing paper, along with moments to express and educate themselves, before they can be taken away by train, illness or bullet. The children defy their captors further by producing an underground newspaper — a deed punishable by death if they’re caught. According to the play’s publisher, Playscripts Inc.,

My Own Two Hands event starts today My Own Two Hands, a twoday celebration of the arts in Sisters, begins today.

Riley Gibson, left, and Marley Forest star as Miraslov and Eva in Bend Experimental Art Theatre’s production of “And a Child Shall Lead.”

Slade wrote it in such a manner that productions can use anywhere from 8 to 30 actors ages 7 to 18 in the play, which features a low-key barracks set dominated by a pair of bunk beds. BEAT previously put on a production of “And a Child Shall Lead” as its first production in 2006. This time around, Bend filmmaker Skip Clark is shooting a doc-

Take a peek down the ‘Rabbit Hole’ At 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Cascades Theatrical Company will hold a preview of its next production, the drama “Rabbit Hole,” by David Lindsay-Abaire, the same playwright whose “Fuddy Meers” kicked off CTC’s season in September. New York Times critic Ben Brantley wrote in a 2006 review of “Rabbit Hole”: “The wrenching new play … inspires such copious weeping among its audience that you wonder early on if you should have taken a life jacket.” However, if you’re one of those crying-averse types, Brantley went on to say in his positive review that there’s humorous material, too.

umentary about the play, including footage of Holocaust survivor Hans Biglajzer’s two-hour visit with the cast after a recent rehearsal. As for having two separate productions of the same play, BEAT’s Schor explained: “We never turn away any actors, and so we had so many actors that wanted to do it that we’re doing it this week and again in May.”

Admission is $10. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. Greenwood Playhouse is located at 148 N.W. Greenwood Ave., in Bend. Contact: www.cascades theatrical.org or 541-389-0803.

‘Wine Country Quilts’ exhibit at Pronghorn Fine art and fine wine will converge at Pronghorn Resort starting Tuesday, when up goes an exhibit of artist Alice Van Leunen’s woven paper images of Oregon wine labels. Van Leunen’s “Wine Country Quilts” show features mixed-media paper works based on traditional log cabin quilts. The artist weaves the paper in a waffle weave pattern similar to the pieced fabric of log cabin quilts. The exhibit displays until June 5 at the Pronghorn Clubhouse, 65600 Pronghorn Club Drive. The resort invites the public to visit the exhibition during clubhouse hours of 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Contact: 541-693-5300. —David Jasper

That production is being directed by Denice Lewis and will be staged at Greenwood Playhouse, 148 N.W. Greenwood Ave,. with performances at 7 p.m. May 1012 and 2 p.m. May 13. (BEAT recommends the play for audiences ages 10 and older.) At the play’s start in 1942, we hear laughter and the shuffle of feet as the children enter the barracks. They play a game of tag, but any semblance of childhood normalcy is soon derailed as a train arrives bearing more souls. One of the most poignant moments comes when the children introduce themselves by reciting their name, age and barrack numbers. The new arrivals are just as tragic as they give the location of their former homes. Inside the barracks, we see the day to day interactions of the children as their ranks swell and relationships form. The main four are motherly Eva, played by Marley Forest, pragmatic Miraslov (Riley Gibson), along with Pavel (Sandro Ditta) and Gabrielle (Sonya Arnis). The decision is made to

“It’s quite — this may be the wrong word — entertaining in the way they set up these kids and what they do.” — Howard Schor, executive director of BEAT

continue their education as well as create an underground newspaper, which sparks disagreement within the barrack. In the end, telling the truth of their circumstances, even if it’s only read by other prisoners, outweighs the risks. “It’s quite — this may be the wrong word — entertaining in the way they set up these kids and what they do,” Schor said of the play’s structure. On the whole, their actions are “almost like a Martin Luther King thing, in a way. Passive resistance. What they could do to keep their dignity.” — Reporter: 541-383-0349, djasper@bendbulletin.com

pring is in the air in Central Oregon, and any time a new season rolls around, you just know someone, somewhere will be ready to throw a festival and celebrate. This weekend, that somewhere is NorthWest Crossing, where the Bend Spring Festival will take over the neighborhood’s main retail corridor and fill it with art, food, wine, live music, bikes, vendors, a play area for kids and more. The festivities begin tonight with the Cascade School of Music Art and Wine Bop, which will feature festival artists and live music by friends and faculty of the school, plus wine tastings by participating merchants. For folks looking to drop their kids before they bop, Mama Bear Oden’s Preschool (www .mamabearodenspreschool.com) will provide free child care for ages 3-10.

On Saturday and Sunday, the full festival gets under way. Here are some of the highlights: • Street Chalk Art Competition and Exhibition. Building on last year’s competition, which had more than 100 participants, this year’s contest will run from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday. There will be free spaces and chalk for sidewalk artists who want to enter, and six cash prizes awarded for kids and adults. Four luminary exhibition artists, including two from Bend, will also chalk their creations Saturday. • Cycle/Recycle. The theme for the weekend will celebrate Bend’s bike culture and local people who make art and clothing from repurposed materials. The Bend Endurance Academy will host a Bike Rodeo for kids, Bend Velo will hold simulated head-to-head 400-meter sprints at its booth, and a bunch of artists will feature

repurposed materials with cycling themes. Plus, organizer C3 Events will bring in expanded bike racks. • Souk de Spring Festival Block. An openair market featuring food, clothing and other goods from around the world. • Fine Artists Promenade. More than 50 fine artists from around Oregon will gather on Northwest Crossing Drive, featuring sculpture, jewelry, soaps, rugs, photography and more. • Children’s Area. Including stilt walking, arts and crafts workshops, high tea with the Spring Fairy, yoga for kids (register at sarah@c3events.com), face painting, bouncy playthings, rock-climbing wall, petting zoo and pony rides, a performance stage featuring drummers, a play, dance, rock music and more.

TRAGIC LOVE • ‘Anna Karenina’ play adaptation comes to Portland theater By Jenny Wasson The Bulletin

s a director, actor and adaptor at Seattle’s Book-It Repertory Theatre, Kevin McKeon has made a living bringing the page to stage. His adaptations include “A Tale of Two Cities” and the critically acclaimed “Snow Falling on Cedars.” Now, with the help of Portland Center Stage, he has turned his attention to Leo Tolstoy’s tragic love story, “Anna Karenina.” Developed during the 2011 JAW (Just Add Water) festival, “Anna Karenina” is currently running at the Gerding Theater at the Armory in Portland. Founded in 1998, the JAW festival was created for playwrights to develop works in progress. Held in July, the festival includes staged readings, rewrites and artist labs. According to a news release, the world premiere adaptation of “Anna Karenina” was “an audience favorite at the 2011 festival.” “It was thrilling to hear a work, that I spent many months with in my head, being read

and discovered by a great cast of actors,” said McKeon in the play’s resource guide. “And the insight and perspective they and other participants in JAW shared with me was invaluable in shaping the play.” Set in Imperial Russia, “Anna Karenina” is about “uncontrollable passions, and emotional and sexual betrayal, set against one of the most romantic periods of world history,” according to the news release. The play runs approximately two hours and 45 minutes with one intermission. Due to an illness in the cast, the schedule and casting has changed slightly since the play was first advertised. The play has been extended to May 6. Anna Karenina will now be played by Kelley Curran. Ticket prices range from $20 to $64, depending on day of performance and seat location. To purchase tickets and for more information, visit www.pcs.org or call 503-445-3700. — Reporter: 541-383-0350, jwasson@bendbulletin.com

‘Xenoblade’ is fresh, exciting • Latest Japanese role-playing game brings new life to an often stale genre By Phil Kollar Game Informer Magazine

f you need proof that the Japanese role-playing genre is struggling from the North American perspective, you need only look at the story behind “Xenoblade Chronicles.” Somehow, despite early showings at E3 and rave reviews in Japan and Europe, Nintendo of America very nearly didn’t bring the game to our shores.

In “Closure,” the vast majority of a level exists in complete blackness, and anything that exists in blackness doesn’t exist at all. The object is to employ the available light sources — some static, some maneuverable like adjustable floodlights, some you can push around or carry with you — to design a tenable path to the exit. If the path in front of you is entirely blackened, you need to illuminate it, lest you fall into a bottomless pit of nothingness. And if walls block the exit from all sides, you must suppress the light to make one of those walls disappear. Sounds easy, right? Sure. But “Closure’s” method of terrain manipulation represents an abstract new way to get from A to B, and success frequently entails disobeying ageold 2-D gaming truths and forcing yourself to think along dramatically different new lines. — Billy O’Keefe, McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Don’t try this at home, kids • ‘The Three Stooges’ evokes the same slapstick humor as the original, but you might not laugh

he Farrelly brothers have made probably the best Three Stooges movie it’s possible to make in 2012, and perhaps ever, since the Stooges stopped making them themselves. Much depends on whether that was what you were hoping to hear. The movie has the look and feel of a Stooges classic and possibly some of the same

gags. So there’s that. I missed the whole Three Stooges thing. Either they weren’t on the station in my hometown, or we hadn’t bought a TV set yet, or they came to town too late for me. I’m pretty sure that at the right age I would have loved them. No doubt many parents will want to share their formative experience with their children.

For example, at the screening I attended, Mancow Muller was there with his twin daughters, Ava Grace and Isabella Sofia, who are sweethearts. No doubt he was grateful for the public service announcement at the end of the movie by the Farrellys, who demonstrated to the audiences that the hammers and sledgehammers the Stooges hit each other on the head with were rubber props. They also used slow motion to show that no Stooge is REALLY being poked in the eye, but at the eyebrows.

As much as anything else in the movie, this cautionary lecture evoked the era when the Stooges reigned at kiddie matinees and low-rent TV stations. “Warning — kids!” we were always being told. “Don’t try this yourself!” Solemn stories were told about the kid who shot his eye out with a BB gun, or ate a lot of Kool-Aid powder and then drank an RC Cola and his stomach exploded. As nearly as I can recall, nobody was hit over the head with a sledgehammer. Continued next page

‘Lockout’ is an entertaining one-man show I

t’s a mission so impossible that not even the U.S. Marines can do the job. No, this one will take — don’t hold your breath — yes, One Man. The invention of the One Man Movie has been one of the handiest story devices to come along since the fruit cart. All I need do is quote two sentences from the trailer and in your mind you know exactly how the Deep-Voiced Trailer Guy sounds when he says them: “My daughter … is on a goodwill mission on that station. There’s only One Man who can get her out … Snow!” OK, now, hold onto your seat. The worried father who is speaking is — why, the president of the United States, of course. And where is the station where his daughter, Emilie (Maggie Grace), is on a goodwill mission? I’ll bet you can guess this one. It’s a maximum-security prison in orbit around the Earth, naturally. And what about One Man Snow? He is a brilliant and versatile man of action, capable of all things, and yet the Secret Service is pursuing him because he has his hands on a briefcase and is suspected of spying. And what is in the briefcase? My best guess is: a MacGuffin. I probably mention MacGuffins half a dozen times a year. I wonder if there’s anyone left who doesn’t know what one is. First defined by Alfred Hitchcock, the MacGuffin is whatever everyone

in the movie is in a lather about. All we need to know is that Snow has it and the Secret Service wants it. It doesn’t matter in the slightest what’s in the briefcase; Snow doesn’t know, so why should we? Snow, played by Guy Pearce, is an overwritten hero who talks like a character on a sitcom. Every line is a wisecrack, a gag, or what he fondly thinks of as a witticism. If you were on a mission to rescue the president’s daughter, who was being held hostage on a space station in Earth orbit by a tattooed psychotic with glowing eyeballs (Vincent Regan), would you have time to think up oneliners? Of course you wouldn’t. That’s why this job can only be undertaken by … One Man Snow! They say no one has ever escaped from Alcatraz by swimming. A prison in orbit is even

From previous page The casting of the three leads is just about ideal. Larry, Curly and Moe are played by Sean Hayes, Will Sasso and Chris Diamantopoulos, who are made to look enough like the originals to justify no complaints. This movie has been in development hell for something like a decade, and survived the bankruptcy of MGM. Perhaps we should be grateful for the delay. Over the years websites

breathlessly reported the casting of such as Benicio del Toro, Sean Penn, Hank Azaria, Johnny Knoxville and Jim Carrey, but it’s better this way because it’s less distracting. Sean Penn is an excellent actor, but I don’t know if I could get into the spirit with him as Larry. The film is wisely brief, 92 minutes, divided into three segments that are linked together with the Stooges being raised in an or-

more escape-proof. And there’s another detail. Many of the prisoners have been cryogenically frozen and are being held in suspended animation. A pris-

oner like that, he isn’t going anywhere. Why, you might ask, would the president’s daughter take it into her head to go on a goodwill mission to an orbiting prison? She wants to be sure the deep-frozen prisoners aren’t being mistreated. This woman is all heart. Unluckily, some of the most violent prisoners have taken over the prison, and with Emilie as their hostage, they’re in a powerful position. The generator of this story is the inexhaustible French producer Luc Besson (“The Fifth Element,” “Leon: The Professional,” “La Femme Nikita,” “Ong-Bak” and dozens of others). He has skillfully assembled the story elements and left them in the hands of directors Stephen St. Leger and James Mather, who reason that with breakneck action and shiny special effects, we will

have no complaints. It just about works. The idea of the president’s daughter being held captive isn’t blindingly original (it’s an alarmingly dangerous occupation), but placing the story on a space station is a masterstroke, since we’re about filled up to here with prison movies set on Earth. I imagine the movie’s intended audience will enjoy itself. I enjoyed myself in my own peculiar way. I like to ask myself how real people would feel in a situation like this. If I were sent on Snow’s mission, I would be paralyzed by fright most of the time. But then I’m not One Man. I would be dead several times over by the ending of this film. But not to worry. I’m not gonna tell you they parachute to Earth and land in New York City. Nothing like that.

phanage. They spent not only their childhoods there, but their entire lives until the present day — parents, for some reason, being reluctant to adopt them. Segments 2 and 3 center around the bankruptcy of the orphanage and the pledge by the Stooges to raise $830,000 almost overnight to keep it open. The nuns running the orphanage are also well-cast: Jane Lynch as the Mother Superior, Larry

David (yes, Larry David) as the autocratic Sister Mary-Mengele, and Jennifer Hudson, slender and warm as Sister Rosemary. As they forage the city in search of funds, the Stooges get involved in a murder plot against a millionaire, and Moe finds accidental stardom in the cast of a popular TV program that I will not reveal. Having said all of these things, I must say one more: I didn’t laugh much. I don’t think the Stooges

are funny, although perhaps I might once have. Some of the sight gags were clever, but meh. The three leads did an admirable job of impersonation. I think this might be pretty much the movie Stooges fans were looking for. I have no idea what their children will think about it. I guess what I’m wondering is, was it really necessary?

The idea of the president’s daughter being held captive isn’t blindingly original (it’s an alarmingly dangerous occupation), but placing the story on a space station is a masterstroke, since we’re about filled up to here with prison movies set on Earth.

You think you know the story • ‘The Cabin in the Woods’ puts a few twists in the classic house of horror tale

ou’re not going to see this one coming. You might think you do, because the TV ads and shots at the top reveal what looks like the big surprise — and it certainly comes as a surprise to the characters. But let’s just say there’s a lot more to it than that. “The Cabin in the Woods” sets off with an ancient and familiar story plan. Five college students pile into a van and drive deep into the back woods for a weekend in a borrowed cabin. Their last stop is of course a decrepit gas station populated by a demented creep who giggles at the fate in store for them. In these days when movies are sliced and diced for YouTube mash-ups, I’d love to see a montage of demented redneck gas station owners drooling and chortling over the latest carloads of victims heading into the woods. It will seem that I’m revealing a secret by mentioning that this is no ordinary cabin in the woods, but actually a set for a diabolical scientific experiment. Beneath the cabin is a basement, and beneath that is a vast modern laboratory headed by technology geeks (Richard Jenkins and Bradley Whitford) who turn dials, adjust levers and monitor every second on a bank of TV monitors. Their scheme is to offer the five guinea pigs a series of choices, which will reveal — something, I’m not sure precisely what. There is some possibility this expensive experiment is involved with national security, and we get scenes showing similar victims in scenarios around the world. Now, in your standard horror film, that would be enough: OMG! The cabin is being controlled by a secret underground laboratory! Believe me, that’s only the beginning. The film has been produced and co-written by Joss Whedon (creator of “Buffy the Vampire Slayer,” “Angel” and other TV icons) and directed by his longtime collaborator Drew Goddard (writer of “Cloverfield”). Whedon has described it as a “loving hate

letter” to horror movies, and you could interpret it as an experiment on the genre itself: It starts with five standard-issue characters in your basic cabin in the woods, and we can read the lab scientists as directors and writers who are plugging in various story devices to see what the characters will do.

In some sense, the Jenkins and Whitford characters represent Whedon and Goddard. Ah, but they don’t let us off that easily. That’s what I mean when I say you won’t see the ending coming. This is not a perfect movie; it’s so ragged, it’s practically constructed of loose ends. But it’s exciting because it ventures so far off the map. One imagines the filmmakers chortling with glee as they devise first one bizarre development and then another in a free-for-all for their imaginations. They establish rules only to violate them. That begins with the characters. They’re stock archetypes. We get an action hero (Curt, played by Chris Hemsworth); a good girl (Dana, played by Kristen Connolly); a bad girl (Jules, played by Anna Hutchison); the comic relief (Marty the pothead, played by

Fran Kranz); and the mature and thoughtful kid (Holden, played by Jesse Williams). What the scientists apparently intend to do is see how each archetype plays out after the group is offered various choices. There are even side bets in the lab about who will do what — as if they’re predicting which lever the lab rats will push. This is essentially an attempt to codify free will. Do horror characters make choices because of the requirements of the genre, or because of their own decisions? And since they’re entirely the instruments of their creators, to what degree can the filmmakers exercise free will? This is fairly bold stuff, and grows wilder as the film moves along. The opening scenes do a good job of building conventional suspense, the middle scenes allow deeper alarm to creep in, and by the end we re-

alize we’re playthings of sinister forces. Horror fans are a particular breed. They analyze films with such detail and expertise that I am reminded of the Canadian literary critic Northrop Frye, who approached literature with similar archetypal analysis. “The Cabin in the Woods” has been constructed almost as a puzzle for horror fans to solve. Which conventions are being toyed with? Which authors and films are being referred to? Is the film itself an act of criticism? With most genre films, we ask, “Does it work?” In other words, does this horror film scare us? “The Cabin in the Woods” does have some genuine scares, but they’re not really the point. This is like a final exam for fanboys. — Roger Ebert is a film critic for The Chicago Sun-Times.

‘Melancholia’ shows death in a new light

ON LOCAL SCREENS

Reviews by Roger Ebert unless otherwise noted.

ars von Trier’s “Melancholia” opens with music from Wagner’s “Tristan und Isolde,” mourning and apocalyptic, and disturbing images of a world not right. A woman dressed as a bride runs through a forest whose branches seem to grab at her in a Disney nightmare. She floats in a pond, holding flowers, like Ophelia. Another woman makes her way with a child over marshy grass that sucks at her. Looming in the sky is another planet, vast in size. The Earth is about to end. These scenes are isolated prologue. As time begins to run, we meet a newlywed couple being driven to their wedding party at a grand estate. It is a small gathering, only large enough to establish that few in this family can abide one another, and some may be mad. The bride is Justine (Kirsten Dunst). Her husband is Michael (Alexander Skarsgaard). Her sister is Claire (Charlotte Gainsbourg). Their estranged parents are Gaby (Charlotte Rampling) and Dexter (John Hurt). The mansion is owned by the brother-in-law John (Keifer Sutherland). Joining the party is Jack (Stellan Skarsgaard), Justine’s boss, who owns an ad agency and is attending primarily to wrest an advertising tagline from her. The wedding planner is played by the ominous Udo Kier, who you will agree is correctly cast to run a wedding at the end of the world. Not much of an attempt is made to fashion these people into a plot anything like a wedding party you’ve seen in a movie before. Even when the bride steals out of her husband’s bed to have rough sex in the sand trap of a golf course, there is no sense of intrigue, just a desperate acting out. Every moment is saturated with the common knowledge that Earth is about to collide with an enormous planet named Melancholia. I’m not sure if the planet has been officially named, or if the name simply attached itself. One thinks of Robert Burton’s book “The Anatomy of Melancholy,” published in 1621, which marshaled all the arts and sciences known to him into a study of what we could call clinical depression. The new planet is first seen by Justine as they pause on their way

to the party. It is the brightest of the evening stars. During an undefined period of days it will grow larger and larger, until it fills the sky. Curiously, the characters do not spend all of their time talking about it, and we pick up little information about when it was first seen. Von Trier limits himself entirely to the meandering conversations at the house party. He avoids all the usual sci-fi cliches; there are no TV news updates, no Cabinet meetings, no nuclear rockets fired at it, no surging mobs in the streets. It looms larger. It “appeared from behind the sun.” If I were choosing a director to make a film about the end of the world, von Trier the gloomy Dane might be my first choice. The only other name that comes to mind is Werner Herzog’s. Both understand that at such a time silly little romantic subplots take on a vast irrelevance. Doctor Johnson told Boswell: “Depend upon it, sir, when a man knows he is to be hanged

in a fortnight, it concentrates his mind wonderfully.” In the cast of von Trier’s characters, impending doom seems to have created a mental state of dazed detachment. They continue to act as if their personal concerns have the slightest relevance. The film is divided into two halves, titled “Justine” and “Claire.” It appears that the two sisters exchange personalities, but to no great effect. Maybe the approach of an overwhelming event has dissolved the membranes of personalities. In any film involving the destruction of the globe, we know that, if it is not to be saved, there must be a “money shot” depicting the actual cataclysm. I doubt any could do better than von Trier does here. There are no tidal waves. No animals fleeing through burning forests. No skyscrapers falling. None of that easy stuff. No, there is simply a character standing on a hill and staring straight at the impending doom, as von Trier shows it happening in what logically must be slow motion, with a fearsome preliminary merging of planetary atmospheres. Violent death is often a shabby business in the movies. Here is a character who says, I see it coming, I will face it, I will not turn away, I will observe it as long as my eyes and my mind still function. Is it fair of me to speculate that von Trier himself regards death in that way? — Roger Ebert is a film critic for The Chicago Sun-Times.

“Crazy Horse” — Frederick Wiseman’s new documentary invites the viewer to contemplate the intricacies of the creative process, the daily rhythms of a complex organization, and the tensions between artistic ambition and practicality — and also to look at very beautiful women wearing very little. “Crazy Horse,” a behindthe-scenes look at a famous Paris erotic revue, takes up themes that this supremely observant, subtly analytical filmmaker has explored before in films like “Ballet” (1995), “La Danse: The Paris Opera Ballet” (2009) and “Boxing Gym” (2010). In each case, the graceful movement of particular bodies — at rest, at work, in rehearsal, and in performance or competition — provides a counterpoint to the frenzy and inertia of the collective bodies in which they dwell. This film screens at the new Tin Pan Theater in Bend. Cost is $6 ($3 for the 10:30 p.m. screenings). This film was not given a star rating. (no MPAA rating) — A.O. Scott, The New York Times

“Farmageddon” — A documentary exploring the friction among small farms, agribusiness, policymakers and law enforcement. Directed by Kristin Canty. The film screens at the new Tin Pan Theater in Bend. Cost is $6. (no MPAA rating) — Synopsis from Los Angeles Times

“The Fat Boy Chronicles” — Inspired by a true story, the film shines a light on the world of a bullied teen and demonstrates how he copes with his abuse. Fourteenyear-old Jimmy is obese and must face daily taunts from kids at school over his weight. With the support of his family and his church friends, Jimmy tackles his weight issue and manages to find love in the process. Presented by Serendipity West Foundation, the film screens at 7 p.m. Saturday at the Tower Theatre in Bend. Tickets are free but must be ordered in advance from the Tower Theatre website. (no MPAA rating) — Synopsis from the Tower Theatre

“Grateful Dead Meet-Up at the Movies” — The Grateful Dead are returning to the big screen. The event features unreleased footage from the iconic Alpine Valley Music Theatre concert July 18, 1989. The film screens at 7 p.m. Thursday at

the Regal Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX in Bend. Cost is $12.50. 150 minutes. (no MPAA rating) “Man with a Movie Camera” — Directed by Dziga Vertov, “Man With a Movie Camera” is a 1929 early documentary cinema film from the Soviet Union. The film features a new score by The Cinematic Orchestra. The film screens at the new Tin Pan Theater in Bend. Cost is $3. (no MPAA rating) “The Metropolitan Opera: La Traviata” — Natalie Dessay will put on the red dress in Willy Decker’s stunning production, in her first role as Violetta at The Metropolitan Opera. Matthew Polenzani sings Alfredo, Dmitri Hvorostovsky is Germont, and Principal Conductor Fabio Luisi is on the podium. “The Metropolitan Opera: Live in HighDefinition” series features 12 opera performances transmitted live in highdefinition to movie theaters around the world. The event screens at 9:55 a.m. at the Regal Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX in Bend. Tickets are $24 for adults, $22 for seniors and $18 for children. 195 minutes. (no MPAA rating) — Synopsis from The Metropolitan Opera

WHAT’S NEW “The Cabin in the Woods” — Five college students head out for a weekend in an isolated cabin, and find it contains unguessable levels of reality. The trailer and opening minutes reveal that the cabin is a set for a laboratory experiment — but the plot takes such bizarre turns that’s the least of it. With Kristen Connolly, Chris Hemsworth, Richard Jenkins. Produced and co-written by horror legend Joss Whedon. Rating: Three stars. 105 minutes. (R) “Lockout” — The president’s daughter (Maggie Grace) goes on a goodwill mission to determine the well-being of violent prisoners who have been frozen in suspended animation in a maximumsecurity prison in orbit around Earth, and is taken hostage. Only One Man can save her: the heroic Snow (Guy Pearce). Wall-to-wall action and lots of shiny special effects, but the hero has an annoying way of speaking in one-liners and wisecracks, even in moments of paralyzing peril. Rating: Two and a half stars. 95 minutes. (PG-13) “Melancholia” — As the Earth moves inexorably toward a collision with a much larger planet, Lars von Trier focuses on a few people at an odd wedding party. The bride is Kirsten Dunst, her groom Alexander Skarsgard, her sister Charlotte Gainsbourg, her parents John Hurt and Charlotte Ramping, the owner of the vast estate Kiefer Sutherland. In the sky above, the planet Melancholia looms ever larger, and von Trier treats it not as a science fiction event but as a profound mental disturbance. Beautiful visuals; haunting, disjointed dialogue. Rating: Three and a half stars. 135 minutes. (R)

“21 Jump Street” — Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum play Schmidt and Jenko, who were opposites in high school and now, a few years later, find themselves partners in a police undercover program that enrolls them in high school. They don’t look young enough, but so what? The movie cheerfully ignores the dramatic focus of the 1980s Fox series and becomes a mashup of screwball comedy, action and the “Odd Couple” formula. Better than you might expect. Rating: Three stars. 109 minutes. (R) “Act of Valor” — Actual Navy SEALs are used in a war thriller involving the freeing of a kidnapped CIA agent and a field operation to prevent terrorists from entering the U.S. through tunnels from Mexico. The action footage is nonstop and effective. The characters are not seen in any depth. The SEALs seem real, all right, but are required to do little character acting. The film opens and closes with strong appeals to patriotism, but in between it’s a Friday night special for teenage action fans. Rating: Two and a half stars. 101 minutes. (R) “American Reunion” — “American Reunion” is a slow and sad, crude and cruel, tame and timid return to the scene of the crime against pastry. “Harold and Kumar” vets Jon Hurwitz and Hayden Schlossberg wrote and directed this trip down Full Frontal Nudity Lane. They’re lost trying to update this exhausted franchise, failing to find any funny new lines, relying

on shock laughs involving oral sex, using the toilet in an ice chest and whatever dated dose of crudity Stifler blurts out. There’s still a hint of whimsy in the father-son scenes between Eugene Levy and Biggs, still a little brassy broad humor in the return of “Stifler’s Mom” (Jennifer Coolidge). But mostly, watching folks in this age range get tanked and make bad decisions isn’t nostalgic. It’s just sad. Just like a real reunion, in other words. Rating: One and a half stars. 113 minutes. (R) — Roger Moore, McClatchy-Tribune News Service

“The Artist” — A brand-new silent comedy that’s a charming crowd-pleaser, and has swept up many year-end awards on its march toward the Oscars. Jean Dujardin stars as a 1927 silent star who is thrown out of work with the rise of talkies, but not forgotten by the little dancer (Berenice Bejo) he was kind to when he was big and she was a nobody. The film is made with warmth, wit, big laughs, unabashed melodrama. A silent movie for people who think they don’t like silent movies. Rating:

Four stars. 100 minutes. (PG) “Dr. Seuss’ The Lorax” — From Universal’s “Despicable Me” team, “Dr. Seuss’ The Lorax” is a gorgeous and glorious new film that turns a somewhat gloomy, cautionary tale into a 3-D musical, with catchy tunes and gags borrowed from every film from “Toy Story” to “Babe.” The film is a feast of bright, Seuss colors and wonderful Seuss design — all curvy, undulating lines and shapes and the songs are a stitch. “Lorax” takes on echoes of “WALL-E” as it embraces its gloom. But it’s all a set up for the redemption song, the gospel-tinged “Let it Grow.” This film is available locally in 3-D. Rating: Three and a half stars. 94 minutes. (PG) — Roger Moore, McClatchy-Tribune News Service

“The Grey” — An unrelenting demonstration that wolves have no opinion. When they attack, it’s not personal. Stranded in the far north after a plane crash, a small group of oil company workers try to walk to safety and are tracked by a large group of ravenous wolves. Liam Neeson plays a wolf hunter

(PG-13) “Journey 2: The Mysterious Island” — A transcendently goofy boy’s own adventure tale, with young Josh Hutcherson and his mom’s boyfriend (Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson) rescuing his grandfather (Michael Caine) from a lost island in the South Pacific, after teaming up with a helicopter pilot (Luis Guzman) and his sultry daughter (Vanessa Hudgens). With elephants as small as dogs, lizards the size of dinosaurs, bees so big you can ride them bareback, an exploding volcano, the lost city of Atlantis, Captain Nemo’s submarine Nautilus, and The Rock performing “It’s a Wonderful World” with a ukulele. It’s even in 3-D. I’m exhausted just describing it. Fun in the 1950s Disney adventure movie way. Rating: Two and a half stars. 94 minutes. (PG) “Mirror Mirror” — A retelling of the fairy tale in a sumptuous fantasy setting, with Julia Roberts and Lily Collins wearing the costumes of a career by the late, legendary Japanese designer Eiko Ishioka. They are the Queen and her stepdaughter, Snow White, Armie Hammer plays the charming Prince, and in this version more screen time is given than ever before to the Seven Dwarfs. Looks great, but the dialogue is rather flat, the movie sort of boring, and there’s not much energy in the two places it should really be felt: between the Queen and Snow White, and between Snow and the Prince. Rating: Two and a half stars. 106 minutes. (PG) “Salmon Fishing in the Yemen” — A rich sheikh enlists a fisheries expert (Ewan McGregor) to work on his scheme to dam a desert river and introduce his favorite sport to his homeland.

The Lorax (Danny Devito) demands to know who chopped down the Truffula Tree in “Dr. Seuss’ The Lorax.”

who takes charge. This movie is not merely effective; the way I felt in my gut, it was all too effective. Rating: Three and a half stars. 117 minutes. (R) “The Hunger Games” — Jennifer Lawrence is strong and convincing as the lead in a science-fiction parable set in a future where poor young people are forced into deadly combat for the entertainment of the rich. The earth-toned naturalism of forest hunting scenes is in odd contrast to the bizarre oddballs at the top in this society. An effective entertainment, but too long, and it avoids many obvious questions about this society’s morality. Rating: Three stars. 142 minutes. (PG-13) “Jeff, Who Lives at Home” — Jeff (Jason Segel) is 30 and lives in his mother’s (Susan Sarandon) basement, smoking pot. His brother, Pat (Ed Helms), is stuck in a dead marriage with Linda (Judy Greer). Jeff believes the Shyamalan movie “Signs” contains signs that are key to the universe. During one eventful day, many signs manifest themselves to the characters, who also include Rae Dawn Chong in a warm supporting role. A whimsical, sweet comedy. Rating: Three stars. 83 minutes. (R) “John Carter” — A Civil War veteran (Taylor Kitsch) finds himself transported to Mars, where he lands in the middle of a planetary war between two humanlike cities, with the local four-armed race of Tharks in the middle. Lots and lots of action, a terrific heroine in Dejah Thoris (Lynn Collins), an intriguing alien design and well-done special effects. Director Andrew Stanton lacks the kind of tightly written script he had in “Finding Nemo,” and as science fiction this is a couple of notches down from his “WALL-E,” but the movie is competent weekend action.

“The Raid: Redemption” — A visualized video game sparing the audience the inconvenience of playing it. A gangster lord has his headquarters on the top floor of a 15-story building. A SWAT team enters on the ground floor. Their assignment: Fight their way to the top, floor by floor. Wall-to-wall violence. Against many of those walls, heads are pounded again and again, into a pulpy mass. If I estimated there are 10 minutes of dialogue, that would be generous. Rating: One star. 101 minutes. (R) “The Three Stooges” — The Farrelly brothers have made probably the best Three Stooges movie it’s possible to make in 2012, and perhaps ever, since the Stooges stopped making them themselves. Much depends on whether that was what you were hoping to hear. I’ve never been a Stooges fan myself. If you are, you’ll possibly be impressed by how well Larry, Curly and Moe are played by Sean Hayes, Will Sasso and Chris Diamantopoulos. So it’s your call. Rating: Two and a half stars. 92 minutes (PG)

THE BULLETIN • FRIDAY, APRIL 13, 2012

NEW DVD & B L U - R AY RELEASES The following movies were released the week of April 10.

“Into the Abyss” — Time stands completely still during the fifth chapter of “Into the Abyss.” There, Fred Allen — the former captain of the Walls Unit Death House in Huntsville, Texas, and an overseer of more than 125 executions during his tenure — tells an eight-minute story about the execution that finally wrecked his ability to even endorse capital punishment, much less engage in it. Watching Allen unload his burden almost redeems “Abyss’ ” price of admission all by itself. Arguably, it has to do exactly that. The notion of an unvarnished look at capital punishment through Werner Herzog’s unique filter of compassionate but uncomfortable bluntness is enormously intriguing, and in flashes, this documentary demonstrates why. But “Abyss” parlays its premise into a heavy focus on a trio of murders that sentenced two people to death row, and the fallout from the case’s aftermath — with regard to the victims’ families, one alleged killer’s (also incarcerated) father, a woman who fell in love with the other alleged killer while fighting for his innocence — takes hold of the movie. Herzog is the master of calmly and warmly asking brutally uncomfortable questions that regularly get answers, and the conversations he has on film are enthralling in their explorations of everything from regret over choices not made to a paralyzing fear of answering the telephone in case more bad news awaits on the other end of the line. But a lot of “Abyss” also comes down to people pleading cases

Alex Bailey / The Weinstein Company / The Associated Press

Jim Broadbent portrays Dennis Thatcher and Meryl Streep portrays Margaret Thatcher in “The Iron Lady.” the movie can’t crack, and the actual process of capital punishment receives surprisingly little direct attention beyond Allen’s scene. If that’s what brought you here, what awaits may disappoint in spite of how well it’s presented. No extras were listed for this film. This film was not given a star rating. 107 minutes. (PG-13) — Billy O’Keefe, McClatchy-Tribune News Service

“The Iron Lady” — Meryl Streep is flawless in a biopic about British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and her rise to power from humble origins as “the grocer’s daughter from Grantham.” Director Phyllida Lloyd and writer Abi Morgan seem to have little clear idea of what they think

about her, or what they want to say. She’s all dressed up with nowhere to go. DVD and Blu-ray Extras: Five featurettes. Rating: Two stars. 105 minutes. (PG-13) — Roger Ebert, The Chicago Sun-Times

ALSO OUT THIS WEEK: “The Darkest Hour” COMING UP: Movies scheduled for national release March 13 include “Shame” and “Mission: Impossible — Ghost Protocol.” Check with local video stores for availability. — Roger Ebert, The Chicago Sun-Times (“DVD and Blu-ray Extras” from wire and online sources)

From previous page With Emily Blunt as the sheikh’s assistant and the fishologist’s love interest, and Kristin Scott Thomas, funny as the right hand of the British PM. Could have been rich satire; is instead soppy romance. Rating: Two and a half stars. 111 minutes. (PG-13) “The Secret World of Arrietty” — The new anime version of “The Borrowers,” titled “The Secret World of Arrietty” by screenwriter and “supervisor” Hayao Miyazaki, has the fascination with household “spirits,” the same lovely color palette and attention to detail for which his films are famous. But Miyazaki, director of “Ponyo,” “Spirited Away” and “My Neighbor Totoro,” didn’t direct this Studio Ghibli film. Perhaps that is why it lacks his sense of whimsy, that little sprinkling of Miyazaki magic that the Japanese director has given his best work over the decades. The gorgeous pastels of Studio Ghibli films and famous attention to detail are much in evidence in this Hiromasa Yonebayashi film. But Miyazaki, who co-wrote the script, had nowhere to take it. Rating: Two and a half stars. 94 minutes. (G) — Roger Moore, McClatchy-Tribune News Service

“This Means War” — As stupid action comedies go, this one scales the heights of inanity. Reese Witherspoon plays a Los Angeles cutie who meets two men (Chris Pine and Tom Hardy) through an online dating service, and it turns out they’re best buddies who both work for the CIA. Engaged in a romantic struggle for her charms, they use high-tech electronic surveillance equipment to spy on her most private moments — including her dates with both of them — which they sometimes watch together. The plot gimmick might work in a stupid teenage comedy, but the average age of the actors in this movie is 33.33. That’s old enough for their agents to know better. Rating: One and a half stars. 97 minutes. (PG-13) “Titanic 3-D” — The 1997 masterpiece retains all of its original power and is still a magnificent motion picture. For me personally, the 3-D doesn’t add anything necessary, but at least it provided a reason for this sparkling restoration and re-release, and director James Cameron knows what he’s doing. This time, it especially occurred to me that Kate Winslet, in wading through all that ice-cold water to save Leonardo DiCaprio, should

have had chattering teeth — or maybe be dead of hypothermia. This film is available locally in IMAX and 3-D. Rating: Four stars. 194 minutes. (PG-13) “We Need to Talk About Kevin” — Tilda Swinton in a raw and courageous performance as a woman whose psychopathic son has driven her over the edge. Kevin (Ezra Miller and Jasper Newell) hates her and knows exactly what buttons to push. Her husband (John C. Reilly) is benign to the point of cluelessness. She is the wrong person in the wrong life with the wrong child. Directed by Lynne Ramsay. Rating: Four stars. 111 minutes. (R) “Wrath of the Titans” — A great confusion of exploding mountains, fireballs, horrid monsters and gods shouting laughable dialogue at one another, all filmed in dim, dusty 3-D. Occasionally an action set-piece works (like a trip through a massive labyrinth), but the (human-sized) gods seem too puny; we don’t see how they can possibly survive unless they slipped a few bucks to the screenwriters. With Sam Worthington, Liam Neeson, Ralph Fiennes, Rosamund Pike. This film is available locally in 3-D. Rating: Two stars. 99 minutes. (PG-13)
