Staff questions safety at St.Charles • Confidence in Bend hospital’s operating room drops, survey finds

By Markian Hawryluk The Bulletin

Operating room staff at St. Charles Bend raised widespread patient safety concerns in a January survey,

with only 40 percent of staff surveyed saying they would feel safe being treated there as a patient. Only 15 percent said that management was always interested in safety. Twenty-

one percent said patient safety was never sacrificed.

Average scores on the safety culture survey, which has been conducted with the OR staff for at least four years, have

dropped from a high of 49 in November 2009 to 43 in November 2010 and 39 in January 2012. (See chart on Page A4).

Hospital officials said they are taking the results of the survey seriously and they have already implemented changes to address the concerns.

“It certainly validated our gut feelings,” said St. Charles Bend CEO Jay Henry. “We started to make some big changes by hiring some superstar leaders. We had started down this path and the survey said, yes, we’re spot on.”

Two weeks ago, the state’s Teacher Standards and Practices Commission dropped a case filed against former Redmond High School Principal Brian Lemos, deciding there wasn’t any evidence of misconduct after receiving a complaint from the Redmond School District.

But it issued a reprimand against Gerald Hollis, a teacher at La Pine High who put a student in a hold, yelled at him and wrestled and roughhoused with other students. Another teacher, Mary Jean Iovino, who had worked at Bend-La Pine Schools before resigning, got a 60-day license suspension for using a school district laptop without permission for months, even after the district reported it missing to staff.

At times, it may appear the commission’s actions are inconsistent. But commissioners say they apply reasoning and consider a multitude of factors in each case.

The 17-member Teacher Standards and Practices Commission looks at wide-ranging potential misconduct. Those decisions can make or break an educator’s career. Commissioners can allow teachers to continue working in classrooms, strip them of their teaching credentials, or temporarily remove them from duty.

Carmakers like America; why couldn’t tech firms?

By Bill Vlasic, Hiroko Tabuchi and Charles Duhigg New York Times News Service

SMYRNA, Tenn. — The dairy farms that once draped the countryside here were paved over so Nissan could build its first U.S. assembly plant. Eighty miles to the south, another green pasture was replaced by a Nissan engine factory, and across Tennessee about 100 Nissan suppliers dot the landscape, making steel in Murfreesboro, air conditioning units in Lewisburg, transmission parts in Portland.

Three decades ago, none of this existed.

Now, consider this: Executives have long said America can’t compete in building electronic devices. But the migration of carmaking from Japan is a case study in the most unlikely of transformations.

Eaton’s shot at fame

By Mark Morical • The Bulletin So far, swimmers Michael Phelps and Missy Franklin and gymnast Gabby Douglas have emerged as the American faces of the 2012 Summer Olympics. But track and field typically captures the spotlight during the second week of the games.

Already owner of the world record in the decathlon, Bend’s Ashton Eaton is the overwhelming favorite in the 10-event competition Wednesday and Thursday. He is also a well-spoken, young, handsome, biracial man with undeniable mass market appeal.

If he wins the gold medal, could Eaton become another poster athlete of the 2012

Matt Rourke / The Associated Press

He’s a decathlon star — in Oregon. The same isn’t true on a national level, yet.

U.S. Olympic Team? And what does he think about that possibility?

Matt Slocum / The Associated Press file photo

The decathlon, explained The decathlon consists of 10 events conducted over two days to measure strength, spring, coordination, speed and endurance, and to determine track and field’s greatest all-around athlete. (One of the events, the 110-meter hurdles, is pictured above, with Ashton Eaton competing at June’s Olympic trials in Eugene.)

Decathlon scoring is based on a points system for each event, not by finishing rank.

A mathematical formula that includes the performance (time or distance) and three event-specific parameters is used to calculate the points earned for each event. The total number of points from the 10 events is a decathlete’s final score.

“I don’t really think much of it,” Eaton, 24, said in a recent email before the games.

“Understand I am not using the upcoming comparison to suggest that I believe I am of the same realm, but take a figure like Batman or Superman; people regard them as heroes and look up to them or use them as representation. Those superheroes don’t do what they do because they want that recognition; they are just doing what they think is right or what they want. It just happens to be good and resonate with people. … If for some reason what I do or how I do it resonates with people, then cool.”

Decathlon schedule All times Pacific WEDNESDAY • 100 meters, 2:10 a.m.

Filling in President Obama’s family tree a claim at a time

www.bendbulletin.com EMAIL

Discoveries, breakthroughs, trends, names in the news — things you need to know to start your day.

By Krissah Thompson The Washington Post

The narrative of President Barack Obama’s family embedded in the American psyche gained a new layer last week as a team of genealogists found evidence that he is most likely a descendant of one of the first documented African slaves in this country.

The link to slavery, which scholars of genealogy and race in America called remarkable, was found 400 years back in the lineage of Obama’s mother, Stanley Ann Dunham. It was discovered by a team of four genealogists from Ancestry.com who worked for two years on the findings released in a report Monday.

Using property and tax records, the team uncovered “a lot of context and circumstantial evidence� that points to an enslaved black man named John Punch as Obama’s ancestor, said Joseph Shumway, one of the genealogists who worked on the report.

Because his father emigrated from Kenya and his mother was born in Kansas, Obama was thought to have no direct links to American slavery. “His tree is one of the most dynamic that we’ve seen as far as diversity,� said Shumway, whose company also helped uncover the president’s Irish ancestry and that Obama is a distant cousin of Warren Buffett. “There are so many ways that we’ve been able to find interesting stories and connection points.�

Punch is a significant historical figure, who has long been a subject of research. In 1640, he and two European-American indentured servants were arrested for running away from their masters in Colonial Virginia. The two white men, a Dutchman and a Scot, received four additional years of servitude, but the black man, Punch, was to “serve his said master ‌ for the time of his natural life,â€? said Peter Wood, a professor emeritus of history at Duke University who has written about Africans in Colonial America. Punch is thought of as the first black slave in Virginia. “We often need specific names to help us understand sweeping social changes.

Punch gives us the story of a real person who endured the beginnings of a huge social shift,� Wood said of Punch’s significance.

Interest in the family trees of Obama and his wife, which began when he ran for president, have served to highlight the unique role of race in American history and upend assumptions, said Sheryll Cashin, a Georgetown University law professor who researched her own family history in the book “The Agitator’s Daughter.� “It’s absolutely poetic,�

Cashin said of the discovery. “Race mixing was here from the beginning. It was there in the family of his mother, who looks phenotypically white.

We didn’t have fixed racial identities at the beginning of this country. It’s only because of economic reasons that these hierarchies got introduced.�

The discovery comes at a time when Americans of all backgrounds have been digging deeper into their family trees. It was such familial research that led the team at Ancestry.com to make the connection between Punch and Obama’s family line. They first traced Obama’s mother’s heritage through her maternal grandmother to the Bunch family, who at one time lived in Virginia and “passed for white� and “intermarried with local white families,� according to the report. Members of the modern Bunch family, who had already begun to dig into the family’s heritage, had already conducted DNA testing that found that the family had an ancestor from Africa, and posted that information on a family website. Shumway

Barack Obama’s ancestry on his mother’s side, according to researchers at Ancestry.com: JOHN PUNCH Obama’s 11th-great-grandfather

Born in Africa, he came to Virginia as an indentured servant sometime before 1640. That year, he was convicted of attempting to escape and sentenced to servitude for life. In the view of many historians, this makes him one of the ďŹ rst legally sanctioned African slaves in America.

IN HISTORY Highlights: In 1962, actress Marilyn Monroe, 36, was found dead in her Los Angeles home; her death was ruled a probable suicide from “acute barbiturate poisoning.� In 1969, the U.S. space probe Mariner 7 flew by Mars, sending back photographs and scientific data.

Ten years ago: The coral-encrusted gun turret of the Civil War ironclad USS Monitor was raised from the floor of the Atlantic, nearly 140 years after the historic warship sank during a storm.

Five years ago: Lorena Ochoa won the Women’s British Open — the first women’s professional tournament played at venerable St. Andrews — for her first major title.

One year ago: Standard & Poor’s lowered the United States’ AAA credit rating by one notch to AA-plus.

The records eventually led them to Punch, who was one of only 150 Africans living in Virginia in the mid-1600s, and fathered a free child by a white woman. That the family name changed from Punch to Bunch was not uncommon in an era when there was no standardized spelling, Shumway said.

T S Syria may be losing its grip on Damascus Bulletin wire reports Gunmen snatched 47 Iranian pilgrims just outside Damascus on Saturday in a brazen attack that revealed the growing instability at the center of President Bashar Assad’s power.

The abduction came as Syrian troops moved to crush one of the last rebel-dominated neighborhoods in the capital, shelling the area heavily. No group immediately claimed responsibility, although Iranian state media blamed the rebels fighting the Assad regime.

The main battle, however, has now moved to Syria’s largest city of Aleppo, some 350 kilometers north of the capital.

Mainly Shiite Iran is a close ally of the beleaguered Syrian government, which is dominated by the Alawite sect, an offshoot of Shiism. Syria has long welcomed Iranian pilgrims visiting the ornate gold-domed shrine of Sayeda Zeinab, the Prophet Muhammad’s granddaughter; up to 700,000 pilgrims used to come every year.

China, a Security Council member and one of the nations to vote against the resolution, on Saturday blamed the West for putting up obstructions to find a political and diplomatic solution to the Syrian crisis.

The U.S. State Department and Pentagon are quietly sharpening plans to cope with a flood of refugees, help maintain basic health and municipal services, restart a shattered economy and avoid a security vacuum in the wake of Bashar Assad’s fall, administration officials say.

Mindful of U.S. mistakes following the invasion of Iraq in 2003, both agencies have created a number of cells to draft plans for what many officials expect to be a chaotic, violent aftermath that could spread instability over Syria’s borders.

Romney preps for a busy August

By Dan Balz The Washington Post

The best that can be said about how Mitt Romney fared in July is that he survived. That has only raised the stakes for what the presumptive Republican presidential nominee needs to do in August.

July was not a good month for Romney. His foreign trip drew extensive and negative news coverage, although there were also some pluses, and it’s not clear in any case that it will have any real impact in November. Back home, due to the daily combat between his and President Barack Obama’s campaigns, Romney sustained some damage.

Overall, the head-to-head polls have moved little since the end of June. Obama holds a small but hardly comfortable lead. The newest numbers put Romney among the worst-rated presidential nominees in the past seven elections. His low numbers were in the same range as 1996 GOP nominee Bob Dole and those of then-President George H.W. Bush in 1992.

Both lost their races.

Romney is above 50 percent positive in the Pew findings with only two groups: Republicans and white evangelical Protestants. Romney advisers say the deterioration between June and July is mostly with people who were not going to vote for Romney anyway.

It’s worth noting that Obama’s ratings are far below their 2008 levels. In October 2008, his positive ratings were 40 points higher than his negative ratings.

But Romney is in far worse shape after the pounding he’s taken over Bain, his tax returns and other issues.

Regardless, Romney’s team saw June and July as difficult months, a period when the Obama campaign would

have more money to spend on advertising than they would (not counting super PAC spending) and a time devoted to expanding a relatively lean staff to get ready for the fall campaign.

His advisers long have said that if Romney can get to his convention with the race close to even, he will be well-positioned to pull ahead during the final two months of campaigning. They still believe that and say they are on track. That presumes that any erosion in his personal image can be turned around quickly before it begins to affect the polls nationally and in the swing states.

That leaves Romney with much to do starting this month. Over the next four weeks, he will need to do what the campaign long has said he would do, which is to

Some see another target for voter ID laws: youths

By Martha Irvine The Associated Press

Uzbek militants say drone killed leader A major Uzbek militant group closely allied with alQaida announced Saturday that its leader had been killed in a U.S. drone strike in Pakistan’s tribal belt, along the Afghan border.

In a message on its website, the group, the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan, said Uthman Adil, who was its leader for just a year, had died. The news will bolster the Obama administration’s claims that the CIA drone program led is successfully degrading al-Qaida and its allies in Pakistan, despite strenuous Pakistani objections and continuing controversy over civilian casualties.

2 Sudans reach deal on oil pipeline fees Uneasy neighbors Sudan and South Sudan reached a deal on oil transit fees a day after a U.N. Security Council deadline passed for them to come to terms or face sanctions.

South Sudan recently marked a year of independence from Sudan, but there has seemed little cause to celebrate. Earlier this year, the two countries tilted dangerously toward war in the wake of South Sudan’s decision in January to shut down oil production over the acrimonious dispute on the price Sudan charges to ship oil through its country. The shutdown severely damaged the economies of both countries.

As oil stopped flowing, consumer prices rocketed, shortages set in and currencies fell.

Although the two sides have agreed on a transit price, an intractable dispute over territory and their shared border was set aside until late September.

Landlocked South Sudan confirmed Saturday it had agreed to pay $9.48 a barrel to move its oil through Sudanese pipelines until the end of 2015.

— From wire reports

CHICAGO — Gone are the days when young voters weren’t taken seriously.

In 2008, they helped propel Barack Obama into the Oval Office, supporting him 2-1.

But that higher profile also has landed them in the middle of the debate over some state laws that regulate voter registration and how people identify themselves at the polls.

Since the last election, Pennsylvania, Kansas, Wisconsin, Texas and other states have tried to limit or ban the use of student IDs as voter identification. In Florida, lawmakers tried to limit “third party” organizations, including student groups, from registering new voters.

Proponents of voter ID and registration laws say the laws are intended to combat voter fraud. The intent, they say, is to make sure people who are voting are who they say they are and have the right to vote.

Others see these efforts as attempts to squelch the aspirations of the budding young voting bloc and other groups, and they’re using that claim to try to get more young people fired up.

“You think your vote doesn’t matter? Then why are they trying so hard to take it away from you?” asks Heather Smith, president of Rock the Vote, a group that works to register young voters.

Smith notes that it’s not just an issue for college students. She was teaching a civics class for graduating seniors at an inner-city high school in Philadelphia this spring and asked how many among them had driver’s licenses that could be used, if the Pennsylvania law requiring a photo ID to vote were to survive the legal challenge.

“They looked at me like I had two heads,” she says.

Only two students in the room of 200 raised a hand; few of the students had cars.

In Florida, Rock The Vote

joined with the League of Women Voters to challenge restrictions on “third party” voter registration. A federal judge said last spring that many of the restrictions made it too difficult for legitimate voter registration organizations to do their work. During the fight, students at the University of Central Florida placed ironing boards around campus, a symbol that they were “pressing the issue.”

Now, while most college campuses are relatively quiet, some of those students have taken it upon themselves to register their peers during orientation this summer.

In Pennsylvania, when lawmakers were proposing the voter ID law there, 22-yearold Adam Boyer was among students who asked them to reconsider an outright ban on the use of student IDs. “I’d like to think that the proponents of this law weren’t trying to disenfranchise certain demographics,” says Boyer, a recent graduate.

Pennsylvania lawmakers decided to allow “valid” student IDs, meaning they had to have expiration dates. But most colleges and universities in Pennsylvania didn’t have such dates on their IDs. So students and other groups that advocate for them have been working with universities in Pennsylvania and states such as Wisconsin to add them. A state judge struck down Wisconsin’s voter ID law; that ruling is being appealed.

Voter ID and registration aren’t the only voting issues on campuses. Long lines and a lack of polling places have been problems for students in past elections, particularly in 2008. So some universities are trying to get polling places on campus. Arizona State is among those that recently approached election officials and got one. In Ohio, student groups are working with county officials to lengthen early voting.

introduce himself to the voters in a much more positive and appealing way. He’s known now more for his wealth than anything else.

The second and more important moment will be the GOP convention in Tampa, which starts in three weeks. He needs a well-choreographed event and, even more, an exceptional acceptance speech.

Others have accomplished as much at their conventions, and Obama’s team expects Romney to repair some of the damage from the summer.

Until then, a number of Republican elected officials have called on Romney to offer a bolder and more understandable plan for addressing the economy and the deficit. Will he be able to effectively frame the final weeks of the campaign in a way that puts Obama more on defense and himself more

on offense?

One example of being on the defensive: Romney hasn’t answered difficult questions that have been raised about who would and who would not benefit from the tax and economic plan he’s put forward.

A report from the unaligned Tax Policy Center, which said the plan doesn’t add up, has punched a hole in his platform that begs to be filled.

Romney has unveiled new ads and a new focus on the middle class. But his vice-presidential pick will be the first real moment for that fresh look to take place, and this weekend, the Weekly Standard urged him not to make a safe choice of Ohio Sen. Rob Portman or former Minnesota governor Tim Pawlenty, but instead to go bold with either Florida Sen. Marco Rubio or Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan.

Guilty plea expected in Tucson case The Associated Press A court-appointed psychiatrist will testify Tuesday that Jared Lee Loughner is competent to enter a plea in the shooting rampage that killed six people and injured 13 others, including then-U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, a person familiar with the case said Saturday.

The plan reportedly is for Loughner to enter a guilty plea in the murders Loughner and attempted murders that would result in a sentence of life imprisonment. The person was not authorized to discuss the case publicly.

A status conference in the case had already been scheduled for Tuesday in Tucson, Ariz.

The plan is contingent on the judge in the case allowing Loughner to enter the plea. Loughner pleaded not guilty to 49 charges stemming from the Jan. 8, 2011, shooting outside a Tucson supermarket, where Giffords was holding a meetand-greet with constituents.

U.S. District Judge Larry Burns had ruled that Loughner isn’t psychologically fit to stand trial, but that he could eventually be made ready for trial after treatment.

Experts had concluded that Loughner suffers from schizophrenia. Prison officials in Missouri, where Loughner has been held, have forcibly medicated him with psychotropic drugs to make him fit to stand trial.

His lawyers have fought the efforts to medicate him.

“When I looked at these results, I thought ‘Wow. We have a lot of work to do.’ ” — Joyce Tittle, director of perioperative services, St. Charles Bend

Hospital Continued from A1 The percentage of staff saying that serious mistakes don’t happen at the hospital dropped 17 percentage points to 22 percent.

“I think these pretty accurately reflected (the situation),” said Joyce Tittle, director of perioperative services at St. Charles Bend. “When I looked at these results, I thought ‘Wow. We have a lot of work to do.’ ” Tittle and other OR supervisors at the hospital attributed the poor performance mainly to an unsettled management situation in the year leading up to the survey.

“It was just not a stable environment with management,” she said. “There were people coming and going with open positions, and it just felt like unrest.”

Tittle took over her position on an interim basis about a year ago, and was made a permanent director two months ago. The hospital has also filled the long-vacant OR manager position, hiring Denise Bourassa in December, and promoting long-time staff nurse Anne Coleman as supervisor of perioperative clinical nursing.

“I think that was the general consensus,” Coleman said, “that there wasn’t a captain of the ship that was always there for us.”

Henry said the hospital had been trying to hire permanent staff, but finding people qualified for OR management positions can be difficult.

Safety culture surveys Hospitals are required to conduct safety culture surveys as part of their accreditation process. St. Charles Bend surveys staff about safety issues in all departments of the hospital but typically does not make the results public. The Bulletin obtained a copy of the OR survey results from an employee, and hospital officials declined to share the full facility safety culture report.

The OR supervisors said that while the results were not ideal, they were happy that the nurses and other staff in the OR showed in their responses they care deeply about patient safety.

“One of the concerns — especially for hospitals — is when people do not raise issues, if people are silent about them,” Tittle said. “So I find it very encouraging when I see results like this, because staff may be concerned, they are able to say, ‘Wait a minute. That could cause an accident.’ ” Tittle said management talked to the staff about the results to identify areas they could focus on and reached out to the surgeons who use the OR to get their feedback as well.

Staffing levels Some of the lowest scores on the survey were on questions asking about staffing levels.

Only 5 percent of respondents said there was enough staff to handle the workload, and 15 percent said staff do not work

Report on staff perceptions of safety culture at St. Charles Bend A safety culture report conducted with operating room staff at St. Charles Bend found that staff had serious concerns about patient safety. The overall score represents the mean percentage of positive responses to the individual questions.

“We have to hear about problems in order to fix them. I know the public may think, ‘Uh-oh, that’s a problem.’ But I think there is probably a silver lining. Every hospital is struggling with trying to improve.”

— Jason Etchegaray, a safety culture researcher

longer hours, and 41 percent said the OR is not relying more on temporary help. All three of those measures had dropped by more than 30 percentage points since the previous survey.

Only 11 percent agreed that the staff does not routinely work in crisis mode.

“The team really spoke up about what was going on with our staffing, shouted out practically, ‘We don’t have enough help,’ ” Bourassa said. “We do have some opportunity in terms of hiring nurses from outside our area, but it’s not reliable.”

The hospital has since implemented an OR intern program, through which nurses from other areas of the hospital can be trained as OR nurses to help alleviate staffing shortfalls.

“It’s an exciting time. Our staffing is really solid. When I came, it wasn’t, and the team really felt the brunt of it,” she said. “Moving forward, (with) the opportunity to take another survey, I think we’ll see the progress.”

Hospital spokeswoman Lisa Goodman said the facility has also received positive feedback from surgeons after implementing the staff changes.

Gauging perceptions Safety culture is meant to describe the beliefs and attitudes of employees toward safety, more than the rules and the regulations aimed at ensuring safety. But actual

safety culture is hard to measure, and so safety culture reports tend to focus on the more superficial elements that can be measured.

“We know that how a hospital does in terms of the culture has a reflection in actual outcomes of care,” said James Battle, a patient safety analyst with the federal Agency for Healthcare Quality and Research. “Those hospitals that have better culture have fewer injuries as measured by patient safety indicators. But there’s a correlation between good culture and fewer harms to patients.”

Tittle said she hasn’t seen any increase in patient harm or medical errors during the time frame covered by the survey. St. Charles Bend did, however, have 14 surgical site infections in patients undergoing colon surgery in 2011, representing about 11 percent of cases. That’s more than double the rate for similarly sized hospitals in Oregon.

Battle, who wasn’t familiar with the St. Charles safety culture report, said a percentage of positive responses above 75 percent is considered a good score.

“If you’re below 50 percent positive, those are areas to work on,” he said. “We encourage hospitals to take a really hard look at this data, particularly what the patients and staff are saying about the institution.

They’re kind of screaming at management, ‘Here are some of the things you need to pay attention to.’ ” The idea of safety culture surveys stems from other high-risk industries such as aviation and nuclear power.

But with the identification of the high rate of medical errors and patient harm in hospitals by a landmark 1994 Institute of Medicine report, health care organizations from hospitals to nursing homes to doctors’ offices have been increasingly cognizant of patient safety issues.

“What patients want is optimal outcomes and to be safe while they’re in your care,” said Diane Waldo, director of Quality & Clinical Services for the Oregon Association of Hospital and Health Systems. “So patient safety really has taken on a whole new priority in health care.”

The organization, which represents Oregon hospitals, has recently launched the Partnership for Patients, a safety initiative aimed at reducing patient harm by 40 percent and readmissions by 20 percent by the end of 2013.

Safety culture experts, however, cautioned that even if the survey results are less than ideal, hospitals should be credited for asking the questions.

“I really hate to finger hospitals that are collecting data, because this information is so valuable and important, that if we skewer them for having sought the information, they won’t seek the information,” Singer said. “They’re pretty brave to go out there and ask, ‘How are we doing?’ So long as they are thinking about strategies to change these results, I would really give them as much credit as possible.”

Jason Etchegaray, a safety culture researcher with the University of Texas Memorial Hermann Center for Health Care Quality and Safety, said patients will benefit when hospitals collect such data and take steps to address the shortfalls.

“We have to hear about problems in order to fix them. I know the public may think, ‘Uh-oh, that’s a problem.’ But I think there is probably a silver lining,” he said. “Every hospital is struggling with trying to improve their safety culture. I know I would be concerned if they don’t do anything with these results.”

Safety culture experts say some of the questions on the safety culture survey might be more critical than others, including the question of whether staff would feel safe as patients themselves.

“That would be a pretty good indication of whether you might want to consider having surgery there,” Etchegaray said.

Tech Continued from A1 Three decades ago, the conventional wisdom was simple: Japanese automakers would not build many cars anywhere but Japan, where supply chains were in place, costs were tightly controlled and the reputation for quality was unparalleled.

“They were very unfamiliar doing anything outside Japan,” said Sen. Lamar Alexander, a Republican who was governor of Tennessee when Nissan opened its factory here in 1983.

“They were tentative and awkward even discussing it.”

Today, echoes of that conventional wisdom can be heard within the U.S. technology industry. For years, high-tech executives have argued that the U.S. cannot compete in making the most popular electronic devices. Companies like Apple, Dell and Hewlett-Packard, which rely on huge Asian factories, assert that many types of manufacturing would be too costly and inefficient in the U.S. Only overseas, they have said, can they find an abundance of educated midlevel engineers, low-wage workers and at-theready suppliers.

But the migration of Japanese auto manufacturing to the U.S. over the past 30 years offers a case study in how the unlikeliest of transformations can unfold. Despite the decline of American car companies, the U.S. today remains one of the top auto manufacturers and employers in the world.

Japanese and other foreign companies account for more than 40 percent of cars built in the U.S., employing about 95,000 people directly and hundreds of thousands more among parts suppliers.

The U.S. gained these jobs through a combination of public and congressional pressure on Japan, “voluntary” quotas on car exports from Japan and incentives like tax breaks that encouraged Japanese automakers to build factories in the U.S. Pressuring technology companies to move manufacturing here would pose different challenges. For one thing, Apple and many other technology giants are American, not foreign, and so are viewed differently by politicians and the public. But it is possible, and the benefits might be worth it, some economists say.

The debate is not just economic, however. Increasingly, it is political. With high unemployment, the question of how to create jobs has taken a role in the presidential race.

Although the car and technology industries are different — and the eras separated by 30 years — the resurgence of U.S. auto manufacturing in the 1980s is an example of how one industry created tens of thousands of good jobs. Since its first pickup rolled off the line in Smyrna on June 16, 1983, Nissan has produced more than 7 million vehicles in the U.S. It now employs 15,000 people in this country. It makes more than a half-million cars, trucks and SUVs a year, with the plant here building six models, including the soon-to-be-produced, all-electric Nissan Leaf.

In the auto industry, the belief that U.S. workers could not

match Japanese workers has long since faded. “A big part of the reluctance of Japanese automakers to come to the U.S. was the belief that their manufacturing systems could only work with loyal Japanese employees,” said Stephen Cohen, a professor emeritus of international studies at American University. “Everybody was surprised how quickly the systems were adopted here.”

Within the technology industry, workers in Asia are viewed as hungrier and more willing to tolerate harsh work schedules to achieve productivity. The numbingly repetitive jobs of assembling cellphones and tablet computers, executives say, would be scorned here; they worry that many Americans will not make the sacrifices that success demands, and want too much vacation time and predictable work schedules.

Earlier this year, when Apple’s chief executive, Tim Cook, took the stage at a technology conference, he was asked if his company — which once made computers in America, but now locates most assembly in China and other countries — would ever build another product in the U.S. “I hope so,” Cook replied.

“One day.”

That day came recently for Brazil. In Jundiai, an hour’s drive from São Paulo, a strip of asphalt has recently been rechristened Avenida Steve Jobs, or Steve Jobs Avenue.

Alongside is a factory where workers make iPhones and iPads. Brazil got these jobs through tactics the U.S. once used to persuade Nissan and other foreign carmakers to build plants in America: It cajoled Apple and Foxconn with a combination of financial incentives and import penalties.

Throughout his term, Obama has regularly gathered advisers to discuss manufacturing, according to former high-ranking White House officials.

In March, Gene Sperling, director of the White House’s National Economic Council, outlined initiatives — including tax breaks for building factories here, infrastructure investments and going after “unfair trade practices” — to reinvigorate manufacturing.

In May, the Commerce Department announced tariffs on Chinese solar panels for selling below fair-market value.

Washington, however, has generally shied from addressing the protectionist measures of countries like China with countermeasures, as politicians once did against Japan.

After the Senate last year passed legislation imposing tariffs on nations whose currency is undervalued — a salvo aimed at China — the bill went nowhere in the House, and the White House indicated it did not like the proposal.

However, champions of “insourcing” legislation — which takes away benefits from companies moving jobs abroad and provides incentives for those bringing jobs back — said the tenor of the debate is changing.

Sen. Debbie Stabenow, DMich., also favors tax breaks, rather than penalties. “I love my iPad,” she said. “And I want it made in America.”

Eaton Continued from A1 By most accounts, track and field has dwindled in popularity in the U.S. in recent years. And the sprints remain the sport’s showcase events, while field events and the decathlon tend to receive little recognition.

A U.S. sweep of the medals in the Olympic decathlon this year was supposed to elevate the event in the American sports psyche, but defending Olympic champion Bryan Clay failed to qualify for London, making that sweep impossible. Still, Eaton and his U.S. teammate, Trey Hardee, could provide the U.S. with its first 1-2 finish in the Olympic decathlon in 60 years.

While many diehard track and field enthusiasts throughout Oregon are decathlon experts and Eaton fanatics, the same is not true on a national level. Eaton said it might bother him later in life if his sport does not take on more appeal to youth around the country. “(Decathlon) has changed my life so much that I would like for more people to try it and see if they like it,” Eaton said.

“In London, there will be 80,000 people in the stands. That’s like doing the long jump or discus in a football stadium and having everyone watching and cheering for you. Also, track is so much more popular in Europe and other countries. You get to travel all over the world just to do track and field, and the people who host the meets pay for you to go. It’s one of the best ways to see the planet.”

Part of the problem with the decathlon is that, unlike in 1976, when seemingly everybody watched American Bruce Jenner win the gold medal, these days it rarely grabs the attention of Olympic viewers. And the Olympic decathlon drags on for nearly 12 hours on each of its two days. Television coverage typically consists of little more than recorded highlights of the first nine events, followed by the live airing of the final event, the 1,500 meters. Jamaican sprinters Usain Bolt and Yohan Blake running the 100 and 200 meters makes for much better TV than the decathlon.

The event is also often confusing to those who are not regular track and field fans.

The decathlon’s 10 events are contested over two days to measure strength, spring, coordination, speed and endurance, and to determine track and field’s greatest all-around athlete. Decathlon scoring is based on a point system for each event, not by finishing rank. A formula that includes the performance (time or distance) and three eventspecific parameters is used to calculate the points earned for each event. The total number of points from the 10 events is a decathlete’s final score. (Eaton’s world record of 9,039 points set at the U.S. Olympic trials at Eugene’s Hayward Field six weeks ago broke Czech Roman Sebrle’s 2001 mark of 9,026 points.)

Decathletes are competing against each other, but not in each event. Rather, they are competing for the greatest number of points accumulated over 10 events. (See box on Page A1.)

Eaton’s coach with Oregon Track Club Elite in Eugene, Harry Marra, is always trying to educate fans and reporters about the decathlon. One thing he harps on is this: “Goofy things can happen.”

A decathlete could fail to clear a bar in the pole vault or fall during the 110-meter hurdles, and his chance for a medal would be over.

“It is not easy to do this — to get 10 great performances that add up to a great score,” Marra said after Eaton’s world-record performance in Eugene. “There’s more ways to fail in the decathlon than there are to succeed.”

Eaton’s strongest events are the first two: the 100 meters and the long jump. Runner’s World magazine recently labeled him the world’s best runner to ever compete in the decathlon, but he remains relatively weak in the three throwing events.

Over the past few years, Eaton’s training and focus on the decathlon have evolved into more than just running, jumping and throwing.

“I was always attracted to the athleticism (of the decathlon),” Eaton said shortly after setting the world record. “I didn’t want to just run. I didn’t want to just jump. Whatever I did athletically, I wanted to do different things and try to maximize my athleticism.”

Brianne Theisen — Eaton’s fiancee, who finished 11th Saturday in the Olympic heptathlon (the women’s seven-event version of the decathlon) — said Eaton is so successful in the

decathlon simply because he loves it. Nike and other sponsors will provide a nice living, even make Eaton wealthy by most standards. (He received a $750,000 bonus from Nike for his world-record performance at the trials in June.) But Theisen insists he does not do it for the money or the fame.

“He does it because he likes going to practice every day and he likes working toward something and challenging himself,”

Theisen said shortly before the Olympics. “He likes improving and setting goals. If you can have this mentality about something, that’s half the battle.”

Eaton said he liked to watch the Olympics on TV when he was growing up in La Pine and Bend. But he never really thought them a long-term goal.

“I always had my sight set on what was in front of me at the time,” he said.

As a senior at Bend’s Moun-

tain View High School in 2006, Eaton won state titles in the long jump and the 400 meters.

At the University of Oregon, he claimed three NCAA championships in the decathlon.

Now, with the world record in hand, his focus is solely on winning Olympic gold.

Or is it?

Eaton took to his Facebook page recently to clarify whether he thinks he can break his own world record in London.

Because he does not have the home-crowd advantage of Hayward Field, and because the days are much longer in an international decathlon, the prevailing belief is Eaton will not set another world record for total points at the Olympics.

At a news conference in London last week, Eaton said it is “unrealistic to think I am going to get another world record, especially at the Olympic Games.”

On Facebook, though, he hinted

A5

that perhaps it is possible: “Of course the potential is there but I’ve heard the Games is a different beast,” Eaton wrote in his post. “International decathlons are way different than in the states. However, 1. I always try my best which is how I got to where I am now.

2. Who said anything about me trying to do something realistic? ;)” — Reporter: 541-383-0318, mmorical@bendbulletin.com

Palestinians renew statehood bid The Associated Press RAMALLAH, West Bank — Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas will take a first procedural step toward seeking U.N. recognition of a state of Palestine when he addresses the General Assembly on Sept.

27 but has not decided when to ask for a vote on his request, the Palestinian foreign minister said Saturday.

Timing is seen as crucial in the bid to be recognized as a non-member observer state by the U.N. General Assembly, an upgrade they hope will firmly establish the West Bank, Gaza and east Jerusalem, captured

by Israel in 1967, as Palestinian territories in the world’s eyes.

Some Abbas aides are pushing for quick action, while Abbas is said to be leaning toward waiting until after the U.S. presidential election in November. Palestinian officials have not taken sides publicly in the U.S. presidential race.

Although they have expressed disappointment over what they perceive as Barack Obama’s failure to pressure Israel, they hope that, if re-elected, Obama will be more decisive in seeking a Mideast deal.

Officially, the U.S. and Israel oppose the Palestinian bid.

illegally from Mexico; the men were not detained.

Months later, he formed a unit dedicated to arresting smugglers and the immigrants whom they brought here, under a state law that turned both activities into felonies.

Since then, illegal immigration has been a prime focus for Arpaio. His raids — in businesses suspected of employing illegal immigrants, as well as in neighborhoods and parking lots — are matters of contention in the federal trial, which ended Thursday. There is no jury and there are no claims for monetary damages, just corrective actions. A verdict won’t come until after Aug. 16.

The plaintiffs’ lawyers have argued that the raids were prompted by racially charged emails, letters and telephone messages received by Arpaio’s office, and not by a sudden spike in crime. Defense lawyers — and Arpaio, on and off the witness stand — have said the raids were unrelated to the racial tone of complaints.

Jonathan Paton, a former state legislator who sponsored Arizona’s humansmuggling bill, giving broad powers to arrest illegal immigrants, said the sheriff “is doing exactly what he has been elected to do, which is to uphold our laws.”

Arpaio has garnered more than $7 million in campaign contributions, more than the combined take of the two leading candidates in one of the most competitive congressional primary races in the state, and, tribulations aside, he enjoys unparalleled popularity.

He said he had no reason for apologies or regret, though he did acknowledge that he had been treading perilously close to the boundaries. “I know how far I can go. But I don’t know how much farther I can go.”

KABUL, Afghanistan — The U.S. diplomat most associated with the invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan says that U.S. policymakers need to learn the lessons of the recent past as they weigh military options for the future, including for Syria and Iran: • Remember the law of unintended consequences.

• Recognize the limits of the United States’ actual capabilities.

• Understand that getting out of a conflict once you are in can often be dangerous and as destructive for the country as the original conflict.

“You better do some cold calculating, you know, about how do you really think you are going to influence things for the better,” said Ryan Crocker, 63, the departing ambassador to Afghanistan and one of the pre-eminent U.S. diplomats of the past 40 years.

Even as he retires fighting an exhausting illness, Crocker cannot help keeping his mind at work on the crisis spots that have defined his career — in Pakistan and Afghanistan, Iran and Syria, Iraq and Lebanon.

Crocker, a wiry, intense man who for years was a dedicated distance runner, retired at the end of July after a career that began as the last U.S. troops were leaving Vietnam and is ending as the curtain closes on an era of American statebuilding that has mostly fallen short of the results policymakers had hoped for.

In Iraq, the dream of a peaceful and democratic ally in the Arab world is giving way to a renewal of violence and an authoritarian government that lists toward Iran. In Afghanistan, the future is uncertain and hangs on dozens of “ifs” — if the elections are fair enough, if the Afghan security forces can fight off insurgents, if the government can become self-sufficient.

Looking ahead, Crocker sees, if anything, an increasingly fraught foreign landscape in a world set afire by war and revolution, a chapter bound to frustrate the best intentions and most sophisticated strategies of the United States. Although he speaks Arabic and has spent a lifetime immersed in the Arab world and Afghanistan, Crocker is deeply skeptical that Americans on foreign soil can be anything other than strangers in a strange land.

“We’re a superpower, we don’t fight on our territory, but that means you are in somebody else’s stadium, playing by somebody else’s ground rules, and you have to understand the environment, the history, the politics of the country you wish to intervene in,” he said.

Although publicly Crocker has sometimes presented the glass as half-full when assessing the situation in foreign countries, fellow diplomats say his private analyses tend to be

stark and unromantic — a vision shaped by his 38 years of experience.

Witness to carnage In 1983, while a political attache in Lebanon, he was in his office when a delivery truck loaded with explosives slammed into the U.S. Embassy in Beirut, killing 63 people, including 17 Americans. He was one of the first on the scene, walking through the smoldering wreckage looking for his colleagues.

It wasn’t the only time. Most recently in Kabul, Crocker was in the embassy when it came under siege by suicide bombers armed with rockets who positioned themselves in an unfinished apartment building and shot at the embassy in an attack that lasted 19 hours.

With all that in mind, Crocker, who has a wry sense of humor, is generally leery of predictions in chaotic situations.

“You know my hackneyed line — that an extreme-longrange prediction is a week from Thursday,” he said.

Crocker, the child of an Air Force family, was born in Spokane, Wash., but spent time growing up in Morocco, Turkey and Canada. After obtaining a degree in English literature, he joined the State Department, and the next decade set the pattern of the rest of his life, toggling between service in the Arab world and work in Afghanistan and Pakistan. He started with Persian language training and was sent to Iran, and he then pursued Arabic training, joining the elite ranks of the State Department’s Arabists.

‘The Perfect Storm’ Crocker was one of the Arab world specialists in the State Department who expressed

deep worry at the Bush administration’s march into Iraq. He and William Burns, then special assistant to the secretary of state, prepared a secret memo in 2002 examining the risks associated with a U.S. invasion.

Titled “The Perfect Storm,” it reportedly outlined a possible situation in which ousting Saddam Hussein would unleash long-suppressed sectarian and ethnic anger and draw the regional players — Saudi Arabia, Syria and Iran — into the violent brew. The analysis described with striking accuracy the disintegration of Iraqi society that came to pass.

In 2007, Crocker was nominated as ambassador to Iraq to fix the chaotic situation. In Iraq, and later in Afghanistan, Crocker managed to build trust with difficult political leaders with precarious holds on power. When Crocker arrived in Afghanistan a year ago, President Hamid Karzai was angry and alienated about what he felt was disrespect by American and international officials. Crocker, who had known him since 2002, was able to persuade him of the benefits of a strategic partnership agreement with the United States, a vital step for the Americans toward an eventual military withdrawal, despite extensive lobbying against the deal from neighboring Iran and Pakistan.

Thoughts on Syria Beneath Crocker’s rigorous analysis is a feeling for those who are vulnerable, including ordinary people who in fiery parts of the world are too often collateral damage. As he contemplated the widening violence in Syria he sounded sober, even bleak.

“We’ve been writing memos to policymakers with the subject line ‘Levers on Syria’ for decades,” he said. “Well, you know, the reality was those levers didn’t exist.” Now, he added: “I’m not sure we can do much to influence it.”

Fairs, like crops, suffer due to drought

By Monica Davey New York Times News Service

CEDARBURG, Wis. — The cheese curds were sizzling in vats of oil, the cartoon-colored carnival rides were spinning, and the tractors, ready to pull something heavy, were revving. Yet all was not right last week at the Ozaukee County Fair, age 153.

Inside the barns here, the entries competing for top vegetable and flower were fewer than usual. The rabbits vying for prizes were scarcer, too. Overheated animals are practically begging to be submerged up to their noses in cold water.

Some show pigs were skinnier than normal, and some farm children in 4-H brought fewer cows than planned, after families had to shrink their herds under the weight of scalding heat, a dearth of feed and no end in sight.

• Triple digits in parts of Oregon, B3

Commission Continued from A1 Offenses are as minor as failure to renew a teaching license or as severe as crossing the boundaries of the studentteacher relationship.

It was the second time the board looked at a case involving Lemos. The first was in 2000. Following an arrest for domestic harassment, Lemos, then a teacher in Tillamook County, agreed to a 60-day license suspension and to undergo treatment for alcohol abuse.

The more recent case had a much different outcome. The commission, in a closed executive session, unanimously decided there wasn’t evidence of misconduct.

As with other cases that don’t move forward, the nature of the allegations will remain confidential. But in a tort claim that Lemos filed against the school district, he complained that its report to the TSPC alleging he used a prescription painkiller on the job was false and retaliatory.

In a statement, Lemos describes the TSPC’s role as that of a neutral, unbiased party.

“They take complaints and investigations very seriously,” he said. “My situation was no different. They were respectful, professional, but very thorough.”

Range of options If the commissioners decide a sanction is merited, there is a range of options.

One, put in place by the Legislature in 2009, added a lower level of punishment to the choices. Called a “letter of reproval,” it’s the only sanction that is shielded from the public eye.

Here’s how it works: Instead of getting a public reprimand, the commission gives an educator a “letter of reproval,” which outlines the problem and puts a monitoring period in place, with eventual dismissal of the complaint if there are no further problems.

If the educator falls short again, that action can be increased to a public reprimand.

TSPC Executive Director Victoria Chamberlain compares it to the equivalent of the court system’s diversion program for someone arrested for driving under the influence that allows an offender to move forward with a clean record.

For the TSPC, actions that rise to the level warranting a reprimand include failure to renew a license and omitting information on a license application.

Before the change, the commission only had two choices: dismiss the complaint or issue a reprimand.

“The thing about reproval is that they’re all reprimand-level misconduct,” Chamberlain said. “The things that the commission weighs is: Is it likely to be repeated? Is a reproval going to get their attention?”

Other actions that have led to letters of reproval include leaving a classroom unattended, teaching outside the scope allowed by the educator’s license, and being under the influence at a school event, according to a legislative report.

The information is shared with the educator’s employer.

So far, reprovals haven’t outpaced reprimands.

In 2010, the commission issued 16 reprovals. In 2011, the commission issued 18 reprovals. In 2011, the commission gave out 29 reprimands; 23 were issued in 2010, according to TSPC records.

Across the nation’s middle, it is fair season — the time of year when rural life is on proud display, generations of farm families gather and deepfried foods are guiltless.

But at county and state fairs across corn country this year, the most widespread drought since the 1950s is also evident.

While the fairs are soldiering on, the hot, dry, endless summer has seeped into even the cheeriest, oldest tradition.

“You see the stress of this all on individuals everywhere you go — even the fair,” said Vivian Hallett, who most years has entries (and winners) in nearly every imaginable plant category at the Coles County Fair in Illinois. Not this year.

Because these cases are considered “borderline” — and can result in a letter or public reprimand — the commissioners tend to have the most discussion about these.

The key is determining if it’s a one-time incident that won’t continue and warrants just a “wake-up call” with a letter, or something more serious, said Robert Sconce Jr., chairman of the commission.

There are other options, too.

The commission can suspend a license for up to a year, allowing an educator to return to the field, sometimes after completing other requirements like substance abuse treatment programs.

On the higher end of sanction, a license can be revoked, with the educator required to prove fitness to return to the field.

Along with the overriding sanctions, the commission can put probationary terms in place like requirements to complete programs for anger management.

Sometimes, commissioners will look to past cases with similar circumstances when making decisions.

“We want to try to be fair because the commission does change people every few years,” said Sconce, a chemistry and science teacher at Roseburg High School. “People rotate off.

We wouldn’t want to give a reprimand for something and then suspend somebody for a full year for something like that if they were similar.”

In other cases, it’s clear-cut what route to go. Under Oregon law, conviction for one of 60-plus crimes — among them murder, rape and sexual abuse — will lead to the mandatory, permanent loss of a teacher’s license.

In instances involving criminal allegations tied to the complaint, the commission must wait until it’s resolved in court.

Michael Bremont, the former director of Redmond Proficiency Academy charged with sexually abusing a female student, has a pending complaint that was filed against him by the charter school after his arrest. Since the contents of the complaint are confidential, it is unclear if it is related to his arrest.

Making choices Each set of circumstances is different, with multiple factors that go into making the decisions. Commissioners will look at whether an educator has a chance to correct a mistake or is hiding it.

The teacher in Bend who had the laptop, for example, received an email the district sent to its staff in November 2010 looking for the equipment. She still hadn’t returned it by March 2011, TSPC records show.

Actions like that — not admitting to the error upfront when notified — are considered and can lead to more serious sanctions, Chamberlain said.

“That goes to the state of mind,” she said.

At the same time, even just a reprimand can have a negative impact on a career, commissioners say.

“That follows them for their whole career,” said Bill Beck, another commissioner. “It’s a very significant action on the part of the commission.”

Besides being on their record in Oregon, a reprimand goes to a national clearinghouse that other states check before licensing educators.

“We just didn’t have the stuff,” said Hallett, 65. “All our pumpkins have died. Zucchinis? Dead. Our green beans are just sitting there turning rubbery. And my gladiolas never came up at all.”

For some among the hundreds of agricultural fairs across the country — and particularly for the largest statelevel fairs — events have gone along apace this summer, organizers said. Healthy numbers of visitors arrived, as did long lists of contest entries in a summer when rural families may need a distraction more than ever.

At the Ozaukee County Fair on a recent afternoon, Jessica Depies, 12, held her breath as her cow, Spot, stepped onto the official scale. She had hoped Spot would break 1,400 pounds on his way to a prize, but the scale read 1,393. “He just hasn’t been eating. It’s the heat.”

While a reprimand doesn’t remove a teacher’s credentials to work in a classroom, it can make a job search more difficult, said Beck, a former principal in the Portland school district.

“If they’ve marked on their application that their license has been disciplined and then you go the TSPC database and found out what’s going on, that person is put at the bottom of the pile,” he said. “It is a serious implication for their ability to gain another job anywhere, whether that’s Mississippi or Oregon.”

The public can access reprimands and other sanctions, with the exception of letters of reproval, on the commission’s website. Those actions date back to 1997.

“We have people all the time asking us: ‘Can you take my name off there?’ ” Chamberlain said. “The answer’s no.

We don’t have any statutory authority to do that.”

Commissioner requirements Founded in 1965, the commission started as an entity within the Oregon Department of Education. In 1973, the Legislature made it an independent commission.

The TSPC is supported by a staff of 19, six of which are devoted to investigating potential misconduct cases and preparing information for the commissioners. The remaining staff members oversee applications for education credentials and the accreditation of higher-education programs that prepare public school educators and administrators.

The 17 commissioners, unpaid positions appointed by the governor to three-year terms, make the decisions about sanctions.

Under the law’s requirements, 14 commissioners must work in education.

The mandated makeup of the commission is eight teachers, four school administrators, and two commissioners who are faculty of higher-education institutions that prepare educators. One of those must come from a private institution and the other from a public institution.

Of the other three commissioners, one commissioner must be on a school board, and two are members of the general public.

Commissioners meet four times a year. Each meeting usually lasts three days.

Commission Vice Chairman Milt Dennison estimates he spends about 16 hours reading through paperwork and preparing before each meeting.

A commission may go through about 100 cases at a hearing.

Complaints can come from school districts or the public.

“We’re required to investigate every complaint, whether it seems strange or not,” Sconce said.

That can sometimes mean unnecessary complaints are filed.

Essentially, parents can circumvent a decision of a superintendent or school board, filing a report about an issue that is more appropriately dealt with at the local level, commissioners say. For example, a parent could complain about a daughter not getting enough playing time on the volleyball team, Beck said.

“There’s a whole range of anything from serious to ridiculous,” he said.

Richest retirees spurn sun for rain, Florida for Seattle

By Margaret Collins Bloomberg News

NEW YORK — The richest retirees in the United States are ditching Florida’s sun in favor of Seattle’s rain and the company of Steve Ballmer.

Hunts Point, Wash., a Seattle suburb with more than 150 days of rain a year and about 400 residents including the Microsoft CEO, had an average household retirement income of $200,431 in 2010. That puts the peninsula town at No. 1 in a Bloomberg Rankings list of 37 places with the wealthiest older residents.

“Most of the homes are on the water or near the water,” said Stan Humphries, chief economist at Seattle-based Zillow. “It’s right across the bridge from Seattle, it’s near Microsoft, and of course it’s a very pretty place.”

Small, private spots such as Hunts Point that provide easy access to cities along with an island or country ambiance are among the favorite places for the nation’s wealthiest retirees, according to the ranking. Older residents of the top-ranked enclaves are flush for retirement, with incomes from pensions, savings and investments averaging more than six figures before Social Security. The list still includes four cities in Florida, home to one of the world’s biggest retirement hubs.

Bloomberg’s list, based on U.S. Census Bureau data, ranks places with at least 100 residents, a retirement income averaging at least $75,000 and median home values of $500,000 or more.

“We have a group of people who have prepared extremely well,” Laura Carstensen, a professor of psychology at Stanford

University and director of the Stanford Center on Longevity near Palo Alto, California, said of retirees. “They have a few million dollars in their retirement accounts. They’re going to have a lot of flexibility.”

In Hunts Point, where retirement income is nine times the national average, about 21 percent of residents are 65 or older. Almost half of the homes have at least an acre on Lake Washington, and it’s one of 23 towns on the list with median housing values of more than $1 million. Hunts Point is designated a “Tree City USA” by the Arbor Day Foundation, a nonprofit educational group in Nebraska City, Nebraska, for its forests, which combined with the shoreline provide privacy.

The Village of Bannockburn, Illinois, No. 5 on the Bloomberg list, has more than six miles of equestrian and pedestrian trails and is 26 miles north of Chicago. About 13 percent of its population is at least 65 and the average retirement income is $129,256.

“It seems like you have suburban areas all around and then you enter a country setting,” said George Fenton, a 57year-old retiree who lives in Bannockburn. “It’s very wooded with tremendous amounts of greenery. The lots are very large and the infrastructure is fantastic.”

Barton Hills Village, Michigan, ranked No. 4, offers the “ambiance of privacy without isolation,” according to the town’s 2010 master plan. It’s set among hills on the Huron River overlooking Ann Arbor, which is home to the UniversiChange your mind. Change your life.

ty of Michigan, and has three stone-pillar entrances known as the Lower Gate, Upper Gate and West Gate.

Three of the places in the top 10 are small villages within the Town of North Hempstead on New York’s Long Island. The area, once home to “The Great Gatsby” author F. Scott Fitzgerald, offers residents a marina and a less than 30-minute trip to Manhattan by express train. Harbor Hills, Kings Point and Great Neck Estates each had average retirement incomes of more than $114,000, and median home values topping $1 million.

Most retirees don’t move, and the majority of those who do stay within 20 miles of their old homes, according to the latest data from the Center for Retirement Research at Boston College. They want to remain in their own homes and near to their family and friends as they age, said Stanford’s Carstensen. And they may continue to work part-time or come in and out of retirement if they’re able, she said.

“If you look at the boomer generation, they’re the healthiest, best-educated people in the history of our country,” she said. “I think we’re going to see a lot of changes associated with them.” Many of the 78 million baby boomers born in the U.S. from 1946 to 1964 are at or approaching retirement age.

President’s tales of torture stir ghosts of Brazil’s past

By Simon Romero New York Times News Service

RIO DE JANEIRO — Her nom de guerre was Estela. Part of a shadowy urban guerrilla group at the time of her capture in 1970, she spent three years behind bars, where interrogators tortured her with electric shocks and forced her into the “parrot’s perch,� in which victims are suspended upside down naked, from a stick, with bound wrists and ankles.

That former guerrilla is now Brazil’s president, Dilma Rousseff. As a truth commission begins examining the military’s crackdown on the population during a dictatorship that lasted two decades, Brazilians are riveted by chilling details emerging about the painful pasts of both their country and their president.

The schisms of that era, which stretched from 1964 to 1985, live on. Retired military officials, including Mauricio Lopes Lima, 76, a former lieutenant colonel accused of

torturing Rousseff, have questioned the evidence linking the military to abuses.

While a 1979 amnesty still shields military officials from prosecution for abuses, the commission, which began in May and has a two-year mandate, is nevertheless stirring up ghosts. The dictatorship killed an estimated 400 people; torture victims are thought to number in the thousands.

The torture endured by Rousseff, now 64, is among the most prominent of hundreds of decades-old cases the commission is examining. Since Rousseff took office, she has pushed for more transparency into the years of the military dictatorship but rarely refers in public to the cruelty she endured.

Brazil has paid reparations to nearly 900 people who were tortured. “I remember the fear when my skin trembled,� Rousseff said in 2001. “Something like that marks us for the rest of our lives.�

Anxiety over a Hollywood-style Mars landing

By Alicia Chang The Associated Press

PASADENA, Calif. — Seven minutes of terror.

It sounds like a Hollywood thriller, but the phrase describes the anxiety NASA is expecting as its car-sized robotic rover tries a tricky landing on Mars late tonight or early Monday.

Skimming the top of the Martian atmosphere at 13,000 mph, the Curiosity rover needs to brake to a stop — in seven minutes.

The rover is headed for a twoyear mission to study whether Mars ever had the elements needed for microbial life. Because of its heft, the 2,000-pound robot can’t land the way previous spacecraft did. NASA is relying on air bags to cushion a bouncy touchdown. This time NASA is testing a brand-new landing that involves gingerly setting down the rover similar to the way heavy-lift helicopters lower huge loads at the end of a cable.

How hard is it? “The degree of difficulty is above a 10,� says Adam Steltzner, an engineer at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, which

On the Web • NASA: mars.jpl.nasa.gov • NASA’s video “Seven Minutes of Terrorâ€?: www.youtube.com /watch?v=OHwUrxzrvtg& feature=plcp

manages the mission.

And American University space policy analyst Howard McCurdy says: “It would be a major technological step forward if it works. It’s a big gamble.�

A communication time delay between Mars and Earth means Curiosity will have to nail the landing by itself, following the half-million lines of computer code engineers uploaded to direct its every move.

Here’s how Curiosity is supposed to land tonight, step by step: • Ten minutes before entering the Martian atmosphere, Curiosity separates from the capsule that carried it to Mars. • Turning its protective heat shield forward, it streaks through the atmosphere at 13,200 mph, slow-

ing itself with a series of S-curves. • Seven miles from the ground at 900 mph, Curiosity unfurls its enormous parachute. • It sheds its heat shield and turns on radar to scope out the landing site. Now it’s five miles from touchdown and closing in at 280 mph. • A video camera aboard Curiosity starts to record the descent. • A mile from landing, the parachute is jettisoned. • Curiosity is still attached to a rocket-powered backpack, and those rockets are used to slow it to less than 2 mph. • Twelve seconds before landing, nylon cables release and lower Curiosity. Once it senses six wheels on the ground, it cuts the cords.

The hovering rocket-powered backpack flies out of the way.

Despite humanity’s fascination with Mars, the track record for landing on it is less than stellar.

Out of the 14 attempts by space agencies around the world to touch down on Earth’s neighbor, only six have succeeded. NASA, though, has fared better — with only one failure out of seven tries.

OR-7 wolf scouting high Sierras Red Cross

By Dylan J. Darling The Bulletin

Since first walking into California at the end of last year, a lone gray wolf originally from Eastern Oregon has now covered more than 1,400 miles in the state.

“He’s quite a way south,” said John Stephenson, Oregon wolf coordinator for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.

Last fall he passed through Central Oregon on his way to California. Lately OR-7 — as scientists call the 3-year-old wolf, using the number for his global positioning system collar — has been spending

time around the Butte-Plumas county line, roaming the high country of the Sierra Nevada.

Last week, the California Department of Fish and Game released an updated map of the travels of OR-7, showing where he has wandered from Dec. 28, 2011, to July 10, 2012.

The DFG avoids giving exact, current locations for OR-7 to keep people away from him, said Karen Kovacs, DFG wildlife program manager in Redding, Calif.

She said he has been staying between 6,000 and 7,000 feet in the mountains and is in a remote location.

“There are not a whole lot of people out there,” she said.

While the animal is likely looking for new territory and a mate, Stephenson and Kovacs declined to predict where he might go next.

“This animal has proven me wrong too many times,” Kovacs said.

In March, OR-7 headed north back into Oregon only to turn tail and return to California. He then crossed back and forth over the state line several times during March and April before heading deep into the state in April. His travels since have included

loops, large and small, and crossings of state highways.

A DFG worker captured photographs of OR-7 on May 18 in Modoc County, in far northeast California. One of the photos released by the DFG shows him in the company of two coyotes, which are noticeably smaller.

A wolf like OR-7 weighs about 90 pounds while the coyotes are about 35 pounds, Stephenson said. While wolves and coyotes will occasionally mate, he thinks OR-7 is still looking for other wolves.

WASHINGTON WEEK WASHINGTON — After hours of often contentious debate, the House of Representatives voted Wednesday to extend the Bush-era tax cuts across the board for another year.

Although the Obama administration and the Senate backed extending them only for households earning less than $250,000 a year (or $200,00 for individuals), the House rejected this approach, which amounts to a tax increase on the wealthiest Americans. Nineteen Democrats joined the Republican majority, while one Republican voted against the measure, which passed by a 256-171 measure.

REDMOND — For hundreds of local 4-H kids, Saturday’s livestock auction at the Deschutes County Fair was a big day.

The kids go home with a big check, more than $5,000 for those who have raised the biggest, most prized cattle.

Most of the cattle, pigs, sheep, goats, rabbits and poultry bought by local residents, businesses and civic groups will go to the slaughterhouse and find their way to the dinner table in the coming days and months.

a constant reminder that they’ve been destined for the dinner table since the day they were born. She named her sheep for this year’s auction Bubba, but until recently, he was just another sheep.

“I just come up with a name at fair time, so it looks like I’ve become attached to it,” Rosie said.

Cody Simpson fed his steer joint supplements and spent endless hours rinsing his hair, but never really got around to giving him a name. Cody said with roughly 70 cattle on the ranch where he lives near Millican, there’s little reason to name them.

said some kids have a tougher time than others letting go of the animals they’ve spent months raising. Much of it depends on the animal — pigs are affectionate and reasonably easy to grow fond of, she said, but sheep, which Rosie chose to raise this year, are less intelligent and much easier to view as meat in the making.

“You can’t look at them like a dog, like your pet,” she said.

“From the beginning, that’s their purpose in life — they’re just part of the food chain.”

Rosie said she’s known competitors who name their animals after cuts of meat,

“His name’s Toby, I guess,” he said. “But I just call him ‘Steer.’ ” Bidding on cattle Saturday was much lower than it’s been in recent years, Cody said, and Steer sold for less than a third of what he might have fetched a year or two back.

Still, he said he was pleased to come away from the auction with a few thousand dollars, and wants to see his months of work lead to many satisfying meals for the buyer.

“I hope he eats all right for ’em,” Cody said.

in need of blood donors

By Scott Hammers The Bulletin

A persistent blood shortage has officials with the local chapter of the American Red Cross urging donors to help boost supplies.

Jen Collins Watson, donor recruitment representative for the Oregon Mountain River Chapter of the American Red Cross, said limited supplies are forcing hospitals to ship blood around the region and the country to meet demand, reducing the number of units available in any one community at any given time.

“We have a massive shortage going on. It’s the largest national shortage in 15 years,” she said. “And naturally the region feels that, too, because we kind of consider the inventory movable, transportable, so we can supply patient needs wherever they may be. So if there’s a shortage in one place, that affects us all.”

The shortage is being felt most acutely in the supply of Type O Negative blood.

Though just 7 percent of the population has Type O Negative, the blood can be used to provide a transfusion to people with any of the eight blood types. As a result, it’s become known as the “emergency blood,” Collins Watson said, and is often used when medical personnel have little time to get fresh blood in to a patient.

People who are Type O Negative are generally aware of both their blood type and the demand for their blood donations, Collins Watson said, but supplies of the type have been tight for more than a year.

“When we see an O Negative shortage, we get on the horn with our O Negative donors and try to get them to come in,” she said. “But, we need all types of donors all the time.”

Supplies have slightly increased over recent months, Collins Watson said, when at times doctors in the Northwest had to cancel or postpone surgeries due to lack of blood.

“Common sense” baby does muscular stunts A splendid example of what “common sense” methods employed in the rearing of children can accomplish in the way of sturdiness is shown in the record of Hugh Macdonald, Jr., the two year old son of Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Macdonald, at the big stock ranch of Lee Davenport, 20 miles east of Bend.

When little Hugh was only six months old he could

hang by his hands and chin himself.

One photograph of the husky youngster shows him holding up a loaded coal scuttle weighing 18 pounds.

Today, while considerably heavier and therefore something less trickster than before, Hughie can do all kinds of “strength test” stunts.

When held by the ankles he can stretch out horizontally, stiff as a board, sustaining all his weight with his sinewy back and stomach muscles.

The baby has had a great deal of press publicity, papers in Chicago, where he formerly lived, publishing several articles regarding his prowess, and a photograph showing him flourishing a pair of big dumbbells having decorated the front page of a

well known sporting magazine. As the result of the sale of some of his stunt pictures, the little fellow now has a snug bank account, and undoubtedly is the youngest wage earner in Crook County.

Hugh leads a very simple life, never being given candy or sweets, and very seldom meat or eggs. But the amount of oatmeal he can tuck away would put a six foot Scotchman to shame.

Reported find of gold Bringing back a report of finding gold, W.H. Wenandy, Frank Kulp and John Elkins returned Saturday from a 10 day prospecting expedition in the Cascades, on the west side of the range.

THE BULLETIN • SUNDAY, AUGUST 5, 2012

Yesterday Continued from B1 Years ago it is said that an Indian annually carried nuggets to The Dalles, but where he got them was always a secret. Six men, the story goes, went into the mountains with the intention of staying until they discovered the mine, building a cabin and establishing camp. They never came back and it is supposed that the old Indian killed the entire six.

Mr. Wenandy reports that the party of which he was a member was successful, the mine being found on the west side of the mountain, some 75 miles from here. The trio ran short of grub and could not stay long enough to fully determine the richness of their find. They expect to return there within a short time.

King of Egypt is enthroned King Farouk I was enthroned on his 18th birthday today as the first independent sovereign of Egypt in four centuries and one of the world’s youngest rulers.

Two million persons cheered the tall, handsome youth as he rode in the royal carriage to parliament where, in the presence of the queen mother, the royal princes and princesses and high government officials, he took the oath.

The king’s position is made powerful because of the Anglo-Egyptian treaty which freed Egypt last year from British control.

The king was reared in the palace harem, educated in Arabic, French and English and trained in boxing, horsemanship, polo, hockey and tennis.

Bachelor Butte occupied again Unoccupied for two years, Bachelor Butte, highest lookout point in the Deschutes National Forest, was an important part of the forest’s intricate lookout system today as Bob Sharp looked out over Central Oregon from his 9,065-foot high home. Sharp ascended the lofty butte Saturday, as a snow storm raged over the volcanic cone. Yesterday supplies were taken to the lookout, under considerable difficulties. Three pack horses were used and the horses “piled up” on the steep trail, considerably damaging eggs and other equipment. However Sharp was finally supplied.

The first person ever to take a packhorse up Bachelor Butte was forest official R.C. Burgess. A packstring was used when material for the lookout house was moved to the top of the dome.

Refrigeration is reversible Reversible refrigeration systems geared to keep homes warm in winter and cool in summer are “altogether pos-

sible” for use in moderate climates, Lowell J. Chawner of the bureau of foreign and domestic commerce, says.

Nearly a century ago Lord Kelvin showed that it was theoretically possible to reverse a refrigeration process and use it for heating purposes. Laboratory workers have tried to make this theory a practical reality but until only recent years they met little success.

Chawner said that now a few “heat pumps” actually have been placed in operation in the United States and England.

50 YEARS AGO For the week ending Aug. 4, 1962

Famed water pageant traces back to thirties Bend residents generally took to the hills over the Fourth of July holidays around the 1930s.

The result was a deserted city.

Several local residents, one of them B.A. Stover, decided something should be done about the depopulation of the town on Independence Day. They pointed to the fact that in pioneer Bend, July 4th was a big holiday, with programs that attracted visitors from all parts of the region.

In those early days there were horse races, occasionally down the main street.

There were fireworks on old O’Donnell Field. There were programs and patriotic speeches. Always there were baseball games, with dances at night.

Stover and others of the 1930s said something should be done to revive the good old Fourth of July days and keep people in town. There were meetings and discussions and out of this grew the Bend Mirror Pond Pageants, which through the years attracted statewide attention to Bend.

The first river show really was not a pageant, or a fete.

It was primarily a parade of drifting floats, each illuminated with its own lights.

Floats were controlled by canoe-men.

Prize-winning float was a replica of a covered wagon, drawn by a pair of make-believe oxen, with only their backs and heads visible above the dark water. High on the seat, wielding a whip was the late O.D. Allingham, Bend pioneer. Beside him on the seat, warily casting glances into the lapping water was his faithful dog, “Pal”.

Even before the crude floats of 1933 were dismantled, plans were made for an even better show. An arch was decided on.

The first arches were rather simply lighted. In later years came improvement of illumination that resulted in a spectacular arch, in ever-changing colors. Visitors declared the river fete the most striking event of its kind on the continent.

Illumination of floats was also improved, through use of

trolley contacts. This trolley is imbedded in the boom.

As the fete grew on the water, accompanying features expanded “on land.” Uptown, new events were added. One of the most popular of these is the Pet Parade.

No river fetes were held in the World War II years, and in more recent years the format of the river show was occasionally changed. One of the changes brought to Bend was “Dancing Waters” for a spectacular display.

But despite the changes, the river fetes through the years were held over the Fourth of July holidays. This year a change was decided on, so the show could be presented on a weekend not filled with Fourth of July events over the state and throughout the Northwest.

Fire levels Shevlin hatchery A fire gutted the historic Shevlin Park Hatchery Building west of Bend late Sunday, destroying one of the most popular community centers in Central Oregon.

The 69-year-old building was fully involved in flames by the time three engine crews arrived at the fire.

The rustic, wood-framed building was a total loss. No one was inside the building at the time of the fire. No firefighters were injured. Fire Chief Pete Hanson said the fire appeared to have started in the middle of the historic structure, probably in the main meeting room.

No cause of the fire was revealed this morning. Bend Fire Department investigator Mike Skeels was at the scene this morning attempting to determine the cause of the fire.

Scott Nichols, the Bend Park and Recreation District employee who lives next to the hatchery and acts as caretaker of the site, is on vacation and was not at home Sunday night, said Vince Genna, district director.

The district owns and operates the hatchery building, which was among the most heavily used community centers in Central Oregon.

Vince Genna vowed to seek community support to rebuild the structure which was built in 1918 by the Oregon Game Commission for use as one of the community’s first fish hatcheries.

The building, which was renovated by Genna and other volunteers in the early 1970s and dedicated on Thanksgiving Day, 1975, is popular for weddings and family reunions. A number of local clubs and organizations, such as the Central Oregon Flyfishers, also used the building on a regular basis for meetings.

The hatchery pond is used as the district’s ice skating rink during the winter months, and it is open to fishing for children each summer.

O N Company gets approval for gold mine The Associated Press PORTLAND — After a host of companies spent 20 years prospecting, a mining firm is ready to make a play on the $2 billion lode of gold sitting in Eastern Oregon.

Larger companies have walked away — the score was too small, they said — but Arden “Buck” Morrow says the site is perfect for his company, Colorado-based Calico Resources.

The Daily Journal of Commerce reports Calico became the first company in Oregon in 20 years to receive approval to move forward with permitting of its mining op-

eration. Permitting will take years.

“I kind of scratch my head from time to time,” he said, “because when you go out there you don’t see anything that just jumps out at you that says, ‘Oh, this may have gold in it.’ ” County officials estimate construction of the mine and processing facility eventually will pump between $50 million and $100 million into the local economy, and Malheur County — where the unemployment rate is about 9.5 percent — needs it.

“We could have used it yesterday — and obviously

the sooner the better from the amount of jobs they’re projecting,” said Dan Joyce, Malheur County judge and commissioner.

Morrow said that when the mine is up and running, it will employ between 100 and 150 people for between seven and 20 years — depending on the yield. Early exploratory drillings indicate a deposit of 1.27 million ounces of gold.

The land has been passed from company to company.

Some went belly-up, others bought the land but failed to develop it. Last year, Calico bought it.

“It’s a county that has one

of the lowest pay scales in the state as it is, and the numbers you described sound like above-average wages even on a statewide basis,” said the county’s regional economist, Jason Yohannan. “So if you’re talking about jobs up to $70,000 a year, it definitely would be an attractive position for that area.”

Morrow pledges the mine will be a good neighbor in Eastern Oregon.

“Mining gets a bad rap a lot of times,” Morrow said, “but it can be done correctly and we know how to do it correctly because we’ve done it correctly in the past.”

Coos Bay fishermen awarded first permit for commercial clam harvesting in 20 years

By Daniel Simmons-Ritchie The World

COOS BAY — After 18 months of regulatory hoopjumping, a pair of fishermen have joined one of the most tightly regulated — and potentially lucrative — industries in the state.

In March, Todd Osten and Rob Taylor became the first locals to harvest and sell clams for human consumption in 20 years.

While most bay residents are no stranger to clam digging, commercial collecting is a maze of red tape. Osten and Taylor have one of only 15 permits in the state for harvesting.

As the profile of West Coast Clams grows among restaurant owners, the pair hope they can leverage their exclusive status to attract a national seafood distributor.

“We would love to take this 100 levels above where we are at,” Osten said.

“What I would really like to see, to be honest with you, I would love to see a bigger company take us on.”

For now, Osten and Taylor are facing an uphill battle for recognition. Most chefs rely on clams from farms in Washington and Thailand, and don’t realize the pair are the only ones selling local clams.

In their five months of operation, West Coast Clams has had some small but important breakthroughs. The Coach House Restaurant and Lounge is one of their big-

gest repeat customers. The Coos Bay eatery grills 10 to 20 pounds of fresh bivalves each week.

For Empire’s Clamboree — the county’s pre-eminent clam festival — the organizers scoured the country for

clam sellers before returning to the region. Clamboree cooks ordered 130 pounds of shellfish from West Coast Clams.

Osten also has become a regular at the farmers market in Coos Bay, where he grills up butter clams and cockles for hungry punters — tantalizing taste buds and, hopefully, luring more chefs to become regular clients.

Speaking on a blustery Wednesday, Osten said he had just served clams to a visiting chef from San Francisco.

“And she was so excited to see it — she said they were phenomenal,” Osten said.

“And that’s what we need, chefs to know we are available.”

Osten says that he and his five-man crew are diving for about 150 pounds of clams per week. He wants to expand to as much as 1,000 to 1,500 pounds per week.

To do that, the pair would need to sit down with a major food distributor like Sysco or the Food Services of America.

If they can strike a deal, Osten says, the pair can take the bay’s best-kept secret to the national stage.

In the meantime, Osten hopes a few more locals shuck the bay’s finest clams.

“You can get crab. You can get salmon. You can get tuna.

But you can only get these here,” Osten said. “That’s it.

But the only way you would know about us is through word of mouth.”

Portland police recruits get their hands dirty

State feels triple-digit heat PORTLAND — So far this year, Oregon’s been able to sit back comfortably while most of the rest of the country endured oppressive heat. Now it’s our turn to sweat.

Temperatures soared into the triple digits across much of Western Oregon on Saturday, the hottest weather so far this year.

Forecasters said more hot weather was in store for today. Much of the state was under a heat advisory during a scorching afternoon.

By 5 p.m., temperatures reached 105 in Medford, 102 in Portland and Salem, 101 in Eugene and 100 in The Dalles.

The National Weather Service warned that waterways would be crowded, and said many of the fatalities associated with hot weather in the Pacific Northwest occur in or around water.

Pieces of tsunami dock hauled off NEWPORT — Two pieces of a concrete dock that floated from Japan to an Oregon beach have been loaded onto trucks and carried away to be salvaged.

After initial headaches, crews continued making progress Saturday on breaking up the boxcarsized dock, which broke free from a Japanese fishing port during last year’s tsunami. Salvage crews had one cut left to make and three pieces left to carry away.

The dock will be trucked in five pieces to a yard in Sherwood, southwest of Portland, where it will be broken down into gravel

for paving parking lots.

Man stabbed at music festival SCIO — The Linn County Sheriff’s Office says a Scio man was arrested after stabbing another man during a conflict over glow-in-the-dark glasses at a music festival in Scio.

Authorities say bystanders subdued 23-year-old Ulysses Garcia as he tried to chase after the fleeing victim, and a second victim was cut on his leg during the struggle.

Nearby deputies responded to the incident early Saturday morning and said Garcia was intoxicated and bleeding from the face. Authorities say none of the wounds are life-threatening.

Valet fights off carjacking attempt PORTLAND — A valet trying to park a customer’s car fought off a would-be carjacker outside a Portland hotel.

Portland police say a man approached the driver’s side door Friday, told the valet to get out and punched him in the head. But KGW reports the valet opened the driver’s door, knocking the suspect backward, then punched him.

Police say the attempted carjacker fled and was not located. The valet was not injured.

“Hopefully, it breaks down some stereotypes. We’re all pulling weeds.”

The Oregonian

TROUTDALE — Days before Officer Michael Sherwood was set to start his first street assignment as a Portland police officer, the police recruit was on his knees on a recent Friday, pulling weeds at a farm in Troutdale.

Sherwood was one of 20 newly hired Portland officers working side by side with juvenile offenders at a Multnomah County farm, part of a four-day program to spur relationships between cops and community members they’ll serve.

“Hopefully, it breaks down some stereotypes,” Sherwood said, wearing shorts, a T-shirt and yellow garden gloves.

“We’re all pulling weeds.”

Sherwood, of Southeast Portland, was scheduled to start a patrol shift at East Precinct on Aug. 2.

Terry DeWolf, 21, who spends three days a week at Multnomah County’s CROPS Farm as part of his restitution from a juvenile offense, said he enjoys the work.

CROPS stands for Community Reaps Our Produce and Shares.

“It keeps me busy” DeWolf said, “and helps me stay out of trouble.”

As they yanked weeds from the ground, Sherwood and DeWolf talked about the importance of having a strong

support system of family and friends.

“We just wanted to bring the recruits and the kids together so they start out with a positive interaction,” said Tina Edge, Multnomah County’s juvenile reform and community placement specialist.

Earlier in the week, the new officers toured the city’s homeless and youth shelters.

The goal is to help the officers build relationships right away with community agencies and people they may encounter on

the job.

“It’s a great way to start their careers,” said Portland police training Lt. Dave Virtue.

Twenty officers and five juvenile offenders spent Friday morning at the county’s Restitution Market Garden, where they tilled the field, pulled weeds out of vegetable beds and prepped new vegetable beds with rakes and flat hoes.

Training Capt. Bryan Parman even got his hands dirty, joining in the action.

“Today, we’re all just people

working,” Parman said.

The garden is situated on land that used to be a pig farm.

The county grows winter and summer squash, jalapeno and bell peppers, tomatoes and cabbage. The food is sold to New Seasons, and to the Donald E. Long Juvenile Detention Facility’s Courtyard Cafe and Catering service, said Sidney Morgan, a county juvenile community works leader.

“We’re trying to foster a positive interaction between these new officers and our kids,” Morgan said. “Hopefully, if and when they have contact in the future, they’ll have a better view of each other.”

A 17-year-old girl who was preparing new vegetable beds said she enjoyed the help from the officers. “They’re really people just like us,” she said.

Portland Officer Calen Honl, 23, said he was glad to be working outside.

“We like it. It’s a nice change, getting out here and getting dirty, since we’ve been in the classroom a lot,” Honl said.

T W Groups petition Montana Judge dismisses Wyoming lawsuit to end wolverine trapping over coal leases, global warming

By Matt Volz The Associated Press

By Ben Neary

HELENA, Mont. — Eight conservation and sportsmen groups are petitioning Montana to ban the trapping of wolverines, citing a government finding that climate change may threaten the survival of the fierce, bearlike creatures.

Montana wildlife regulators on Thursday unanimously approved the upcoming trapping season anyway, saying the climate change models span decades and the trapping quota of five wolverines for the 2012 season is not likely to hurt the overall population.

“There’s not an immediate threat,” Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks wildlife chief Ken McDonald said. “We don’t see any kind of significant red flags to have us change our existing season.”

Agency attorneys are still analyzing state law to determine how they’ll respond to the petition.

Montana is the only state in the contiguous U.S. that allows the trapping of wolverines, the largest member of the weasel family. Wolverines keep to high elevations with deep snow and can fight off a grizzly bear when cornered.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service estimates there are 250 to 300 wolverines in the Lower 48, with most in Montana and Idaho, but a few animals with ranges that include Washington, Oregon, California, Wyoming and Colorado.

There are larger populations in Alaska, where trapping also is permitted, and as many as 20,000 wolverines in Canada.

The Fish and Wildlife Service added wolverines to the candidates of species that warrant protection under the Endangered Species Act in 2010 after concluding climate change in the coming decades will reduce the animals’ habitat and increase their isolation from each other.

The warming trend is expected to reduce the snowpack that the wolverines depend on for habitat and denning. Their habitat in the contiguous U.S. is expected to decrease by 23 percent by 2045 and 63 percent by 2099, according to the government agency.

The Fish and Wildlife Service concluded the effects of climate warming are serious, “but so far have not resulted in any detectable population effects to the species.”

But that threat, coupled with the wolverine already having one of the lowest successful reproductive rates among mammals, is reason enough to end all trapping of the animal in Montana, according

A wolverine stands in Glacier National Park in Montana. Eight environmental groups are petitioning Montana wildlife regulators to ban the trapping of wolverines in the state. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service two years ago determined that wolverines are threatened by climate change and are in need of federal protection.

to the 52-page petition filed Wednesday.

The petition was submitted

by Friends of the Wild Swan, Helena Hunters and Anglers Association, Montana Ecosystem Defense, Native Ecosystems Council, Alliance for the Wild Rockies, Swan View Coalition, WildEarth Guardians, Footloose Montana and one individual, George Wuerthner.

The attorney representing those groups, Matthew Bishop of the Western Environmental Law Center in Helena, said the petition asks Montana to end trapping until the species is no longer protected or a candidate for protection under the Endangered Species Act. Bishop called wolverines the “polar bear of the Lower 48” in need of all the help they can get. Instead, Montana is “kicking them when they’re down,” Bishop said.

Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks attorneys are considering their next steps regarding the petition. Montana statutes require an agency to take action within 60 days on a petition proposing a rule change, but FWP attorney Becky Jakes Dockter said the agency is discussing whether seasonal rules involving hunting and trapping are exempt from

that requirement.

Montana allows five total wolverines, or three females, to be trapped each year. That quota was lowered in 2008 from 10 animals.

FWP Commissioner Dan Vermillion said in Thursday’s meeting the petitioners are misguided and that trappers reported killing only two wolverines in 2011.

“I would respectfully request they focus their energies elsewhere,” Vermillion said.

“The harvest of two wolverines is sustainable.”

Bishop said the petitioners believe even a quota of five wolverines can do irreparable harm.

“Five is not sustainable because we can’t afford to lose even one,” he said. “The small population is going to continue to get smaller.”

State wildlife officials also said they were concerned that if they temporarily closed the trapping season, it may be difficult to reopen it, even if the population rebounds.

“If we do that with an animal like the wolverine, we’d have to go all the way to the Supreme Court of the United States to reopen that trapping season,” FWP commissioner Ron Moody said.

L.A. tries to boost energy efficiency

By Dakota Smith Los Angeles Daily News

LOS ANGELES — Lorraine Cannon stretches every dollar. The 84-year-old lives off a monthly retirement check from L.A. County, and she shares her Pacoima house in Los Angeles with her granddaughter and three young great-grandchildren.

But now helping to pay the bills is an unlikely source: the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power.

Cannon’s house was picked for an energy-efficiency makeover by the department, part of a plan that will ultimately lower her energy and water consumption and her utility bill.

“It’s kind of exciting,” Cannon said, as DWP workers moved through the house, fixing windows and light fixtures.

“It makes me feel good that as a senior citizen, I’m being cared for.”

The makeover is part of the DWP’s commitment to expand its energy-efficiency program.

The department recently committed $12 million to perform makeovers on homes like Cannon’s.

The new funds extend an expired program that was funded

by federal stimulus money.

Those federal funds paid for the weatherization of 3,400 homes in the last year and a half. The DWP now hopes to overhaul 6,000 homes or units a year.

“We took the grant program and are using it as a springboard to sustain an ongoing program,” said Michael Coia, assistant general manager at DWP. At Cannon’s house, new windows were installed, holes in the roof patched, and new shower heads installed.

The work is supported by RePower L.A., which was created in part by the labor-affiliated Los Angeles Alliance for a New Economy.

RePower L.A. also includes community groups, environmentalists and small businesses, as well as the local DWP union.

The group wants the DWP to increase its energy efficiency, and ultimately reduce the amount of electricity Angelenos use.

And so far the department agrees. Earlier this year, the Los Angeles Board of Water and Power Commissioners approved a plan to nearly double the utility’s energy ef-

ficiency goal.

Additionally, the DWP is hiring workers as part of the energy-efficiency program to do the installation work.

Executives at RePower L.A. see the work done on Cannon’s house as one part of a larger plan to inspire new thinking about energy use and to reduce the city’s overall carbon footprint.

The program could also serve as a public relations move for the DWP, an agency whose image has suffered in recent years with rate increases.

“For a lot of people, the only time they hear from the DWP is when they get their bill,” said Jessica Goodheart, LAANE director of RePower L.A. But for Cannon, who worked for 30 years as a nurse for L.A. County, the work is really about shaving the cost of the DWP bill.

Since her great-grandchildren moved in earlier this year, there’s more water use at the house as the young children line up to take showers.

For the last quarter, her DWP bill was almost $200, up nearly $40 from before.

“Hopefully, it will go down,” she said.

CHEYENNE, Wyo. — A federal judge has dismissed a legal challenge from environmental groups that sought to block federal coal leases in Wyoming’s Powder River Basin on the grounds that burning the coal would contribute to global warming.

The Sierra Club and WildEarth Guardians had challenged the federal government’s sale of leases on 2 billion tons of coal.

The leases are on U.S. Bureau of Land Management lands near Arch Coal’s Black Thunder mine and Peabody Energy’s North Antelope Rochelle mine — two of the world’s largest coal mines.

U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly of Washington, D.C., on Monday dismissed two merged lawsuits, saying the groups lacked standing to sue because they failed to show leasing the tracts would cause climate change that would specifically harm their membership.

The groups had claimed global warming from burning the coal would damage their recreational, aesthetic and economic interests.

Kollar-Kotelly wrote there was evidence that even if the disputed tracts lay fallow, “domestic and international consumers’ consumption behavior would not be materially affected and the national energy portfolio would remain unchanged.”

Beverly Gorny, spokeswoman for the BLM in Cheyenne, said Thursday the leases were sold this year but haven’t been mined yet. She said they’re adjacent to current mining sites.

John Horning, executive director of WildEarth Guardians in Santa Fe, N.M., said his group is disappointed with KollarKotelly’s ruling and plans

to appeal.

“We’re especially disappointed given that this ruling never gets to the real merits. We’ve been bounced on standing,” Horning said. “And it’s, I think, a pretty cynical view of the impacts of climate change to dismiss one’s standing because the impacts are so diffuse. We’re all affected by climate change.”

Horning said his group has focused on the Powder River Basin because of the scale of mining and coal production there. Wyoming is the nation’s leading coal-producing state and most of its production comes from that area.

Marion Loomis, executive director of the Wyoming Mining Association, said Thursday he’s thankful the judge dismissed the suits. His group is a member of the National Mining Association, which intervened as a defendant.

“The Department of Interior has to follow their rules and laws that are on the books,” Loomis said. “I don’t think there’s anything on the department’s laws, rules or regulations that says they have to take into account any climate change. Until that happens, they shouldn’t be taking that into consideration in their environmental reviews.”

Loomis said his group has no position on the issue of how coal mining may affect global warming.

“Obviously burning coal does release CO2,” Loomis said. But he said the world is going to use coal and his organization hopes Wyoming will be one of its sources for affordable, reliable electricity.

Wyoming’s coal industry generates about $1.2 billion in taxes, royalties and fees each year for Wyoming’s state and local governments, Loomis said. And its $700 million payroll is a huge economic driver for the state, he said.

Gov. Matt Mead issued

Saturdays, June 30 - Sept. 22 | 10am-2pm NorthWest Crossing Neighborhood Center

www.nwxfarmersmarket.com

a statement Thursday calling the judge’s decision good news for Wyoming and the thousands employed in its mining industry.

“It is also good news for the nation because 20 percent of Americans turn their lights on thanks to Wyoming coal,” Mead said. “Coal is affordable and integral to our country’s power supply, and I will continue to advocate for it.”

But while coal production remains a cornerstone of Wyoming’s economy, federal figures don’t inspire much optimism. They show that the share of U.S. electricity that comes from coal is projected to dip below 40 percent this year, the lowest level since the government began collecting data in 1949.

Four years ago, it was 50 percent, and by the end of this decade, it is likely to be near 30 percent.

The prospect of falling coal demand has prompted Wyoming’s government to look for new markets.

Mead and other state officials traveled to China in June to tour clean coal facilities there. After returning, Mead said he believes Wyoming needs to explore how it could export coal to China to meet that nation’s growing demand.

Meanwhile, opposition has been mounting in the Northwest to the prospect of establishing constant rail traffic from Wyoming mines to serve deep-water ports that would export coal to China.

Horning said he believes federal coal leases don’t realize as much money for taxpayers as they should.

“Given that the federal coal leasing process subsidizes the cost of coal, and gives these companies a sweetheart deal, I think it’s outrageous that U.S. coal is being exported to enrich a few companies, and benefit China, and worsen the climate crisis,” he said.

Massive blue whales begin migrating north along coast

By Viridiana Vaca-Rios Press-Telegram (Long Beach, Calif.)

Members of FEMA walk through the ashes of a burned home recently in Colorado Springs, Colo.

Wildfires across the West are burning homes, businesses, highways and other infrastructure necessary for everyday life — and the disaster isn’t over when the wildfire is snuffed out and the firefighters go home. Erosion from seared hillsides buries roads in mud and pollutes rivers that supply tap water. Electricity, water and gas lines have to be repaired and recharged. Debris from burned-out homes has to be hauled away and new houses must be built.

Recovery from wildfires expected to take years

By Dan Elliott and Susan Montoya Bryan The Associated Press

DENVER — A once-thriving Colorado neighborhood of homes and healthy trees has been reduced to a barren expanse of ash and debris.

Across the state, a river prized for its trout, rapids and pristine water instead flows as an oily, black brew every time rain falls on nearby slopes charred by wildfire.

In New Mexico, the Santa Clara Pueblo is seeking volunteers to fill sandbags for fear the American Indian village of 3,100 will be washed away by runoff from mountainsides left denuded by a blaze last year.

Wildfires across the West are burning homes, businesses, bridges and other infrastructure necessary for everyday life — and the disaster isn’t over when the wildfire is snuffed out and the firefighters go home.

Erosion from seared hillsides buries roads in mud and pollutes rivers that supply tap water. The point was driven home earlier this week when a mudslide following heavy rain in Colorado’s Waldo Canyon burn area temporarily closed U.S. 24 near Manitou Springs.

Electricity, water and gas lines have to be repaired and recharged. Debris from burned-out homes has to be hauled away and new houses must be built. Even if the work starts while the fire is still burning, experts say recovery can take years and untold millions of dollars simply to make conditions livable again.

Lisa Maser, whose northern Colorado home survived a blaze that destroyed 259 homes and charred more than 136 square miles, now thinks of her life in two periods: before and after the High Park Fire.

“It’s very eerie,” Maser said of the charred hillsides in her rural neighborhood west of Fort Collins, where the blaze left a layer of fine, sandy black ash, and where floodwaters could strand them in the event of a heavy rainstorm. “It’s amazing that it got so close.”

In Colorado alone, insurers estimate that wildfires have

caused some $450 million in damage to personal property, and that number is expected to grow.

Nationally, the U.S. Forest Service is on track for another possible record with nearly $28 million spent so far on burnedarea recovery work. The agency spent a record $48 million last year.

Harris Sherman, the USDA undersecretary who oversees the agency and the Natural Resources Conservation Service, said the federal government tries to get into burned areas as quickly as possible to predict what some of the fallout might be.

“There are not only immediate effects. There are long-term implications to this,” Sherman said. “We all need to be aware of the fact that the landscape doesn’t restore overnight. It can take years, if not decades.”

The number of fires and total acreage burned in the West this summer is roughly within range of the past decade’s average. But the fires are bigger, they’re burning with greater severity, and they are burning areas where the potential impacts are greater.

The blazes have charred forests and private land near suburban communities, rather than remote wilderness, raising the price tag for a recovery that challenges everyone from homeowners and anglers to forest managers and water plant operators.

In addition to Colorado and New Mexico, burned-area response specialists are working in Arizona, Nevada, Utah and Wyoming to finalize contracts for seeding and mulching, stabilize roads and trails, prep culverts for higher flows of water and put up warning signs.

Charred hillsides are vulnerable to erosion during downpours because they have less vegetation to soak up rain, increasing the likelihood of flooding.

Earlier this month, a wall of water rushed down New Mexico’s Santa Clara Canyon, washing away months of restoration work done by Santa Clara Pueblo and government

contractors. The tribal community had volunteers come from around the state to help fill thousands of sandbags in the wake of last year’s massive Las Conchas Fire, and it’s in need of the same help this year.

Pueblo Gov. Walter Dasheno has said he fears the next rainstorm could result in a wall of water bearing down on his village.

“In less than 10 days, the rains have wiped out even more trees, brought down more boulders and destroyed some out structures,” he said.

National forests and grasslands provide about 20 percent of the nation’s water supply, according to the Forest Service, and the cost of treating drinking water increases by about 20 percent for every loss of 10 percent of forest land in a watershed.

Following wildfires in 1996 and 2002, the water utility in Denver spent more than $26 million on restoration, maintenance and dredging, planting more than a quarter of a million trees, building sediment control structures and installing bigger drainage pipes.

The work reinforced the utility’s belief in the importance of forest management, Denver Water media coordinator Travis Thompson said.

In 2010, Denver Water entered into a partnership with the Forest Service, called “From Forests to Faucets,” to improve forest and watershed conditions. Under the partnership, Denver Water will match the federal government’s $16.5 million investment toward restoration projects in priority watersheds critical to Denver’s water supply.

An estimated 30,000 cubic yards of debris are expected to be hauled out of one neighborhood near Colorado Springs, where the Waldo Canyon Fire destroyed more than 340 homes and killed a husband and wife.

But the rebuilding process has already begun: Just last week, city officials issued the first permit for a homeowner to rebuild, just 14 days after the fire was declared contained.

LONG BEACH — The missile-like shape of the endangered blue whale has been spotted off Long Beach, meaning the largest mammal on Earth has started its migration along the West Coast, giving whale-watching enthusiasts plenty to see.

With adult whales reaching the size of about two buses, the Balaenoptera musculus — the scientific name of the animals — is larger than the largest dinosaur.

Marine mammal enthusiasts can now visit the Aquarium of the Pacific’s award-winning exhibit, “Whales: Voices in the Sea,” with a newly added interactive kiosk that educates guests on the environmental threats facing whales.

As part of the exhibit kickoff, visitors can see the largest mammal ever known to exist for themselves in a three-hour whale-watching excursion.

Spectators will board a high-speed catamaran with stadium-type seating next to the aquarium and have a chance to see endangered blue whales. The tours can be bought with admission to the aquarium and are expected to continue until early September.

On one of these recent excursions, Missy Borodulin, a Mission Viejo resident and whale-watching enthusiast, gripped the boat’s rail and gasped as she watched one of the blue whales swim close by.

“You never realize how powerful nature is,” Borodulin said. “This makes you feel alive and makes you think about the bigger

picture. I think, ‘Do I make this place inhabitable for these creatures?’ It makes you think more about them.”

Blue whales migrate each summer from the Mexican coast north as far as Alaska, though scientists don’t know the whales’ exact destination.

They are estimated to number 10,000 to 25,000 worldwide, according to the World Wildlife Fund.

“I think what is great is that on every trip there is an educator on board to discuss the importance of animals,” Claire Atkinson, Aquarium of the Pacific communications manager, said of the tour. “The wild environment is very close to us, and it’s great when people get to experience this. It makes you think about what you do in your everyday life that affects these animals.”

Michele Sousa, senior marine mammal biologist at the Aquarium of the Pacific, noted that although they are called blue whales, they are gray in color. They are considered blue because of the blue sheen around them while underwater.

Barbara Long, vice president of special projects for the aquarium, said the exhibit talks about different species of whales, how they communicate in the ocean and their

population.

“Right now, they are migrating and are here because they are feeding and there are large amounts of krill here. It’s their feeding spot,” Long said.

“To me, seeing them move through the water makes it special. We are an urbanized area and yet, many species of whales come here. I get to see one of the most magnificent species in the water in Long Beach’s backyard.”

Quietly looking out at the ocean, Roberta Brown and her young son, Ian, sat and relaxed inside the catamaran after watching a mother and baby blue whale swim up to the surface for air.

Ian said he thought it was cool getting a closer look at the mammals’ entire bodies and their sizes.

“This is something we have been wanting to do for ages,” Brown said. “I’ve been scared to do this because I’m prone to seasickness, but you have to take a risk and do something that you have to do when living in Southern California.”

President Richard Nixon, second from left, sits in 1969 in the White House in Washington, with four government officials he named as his economic “Quadriad.� From left are: Chairman William M. Chesney Martin Jr., of the Federal Reserve Board; Nixon; Secretary of the Treasury David M. Kennedy; Budget Director Robert Mayor and Chairman Paul McCracken of the Council of Economic Advisers. McCracken, an economic adviser to several U.S. presidents, has died at age 96.

McCracken counseled 4 presidents on economy The Associated Press ANN ARBOR, Mich. — Paul McCracken, a former economic adviser to several U.S. presidents, died Friday in Ann Arbor at age 96.

McCracken was a member of President Dwight Eisenhower’s Council of Economic Advisers and later chair of the council under President Richard Nixon.

Herbert Hildebrandt, a retired University of Michigan business professor and longtime friend, said Saturday he was told of the death by McCracken’s daughter, Linda Langer.

McCracken was professor emeritus of business administration, economics and public policy at the Ross School of Business at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. An announcement of his death on the school’s website said Nixon once wrote that during his first term he depended on McCracken “for his incisive intellect and his hard-headed pragmatism.� “He was a key adviser during a crucial time in our nation’s history,� Nixon wrote in 1985.

McCracken recalled his appointment last year in an interview with the business school’s alumni magazine. “After Nixon won the election, the press started guessing who was going to get what job, and my name was mentioned as chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers,� he said. “A guy with the Washington Post and I had become pretty well acquainted, and he called me up and said, ‘I hear your name mentioned frequently. Is it real?’ I said, ‘I have no idea.’ �

McCracken went on to say that Nixon called him the next day and he flew to New York to meet him. Nixon offered him the job, and he said he wanted to discuss it with his wife. “Nixon and I talked a while longer and he said, ‘You know, I have a press conference coming up in about 20 minutes, and I don’t have anything to tell them. Why don’t we just announce it?’ What are you going to do? So I said, ‘Well, OK. I guess my wife can find out about it on the news,’ � McCracken said.

Between the Eisenhower and Nixon administrations, McCracken served on a domestic economic task force under President John F. Kennedy and on the Commission on Budget Concepts for President Lyndon Johnson. “He had great respect for Mr. Nixon, as he did for Eisenhower and the other Democratic presidents that asked him to sit on committees and give advice,� Hildebrandt said.

McCracken resigned from

the Council of Economic Advisers in late 1971. By that time, he and Nixon had disagreed over price and wage controls. “I thought price controls were a bad idea for a very simple reason: You couldn’t look back into history and point to a success story,� McCracken said. “At the time, the president and Congress were involved in a battle in the political domain. Political battles are often more important to them than hard, solid data.�

McCracken later served as senior consultant to Treasury Secretary William E. Simon in 1974 and 1975 and chaired the International Committee of Economists and the Academic Advisory Board for the American Enterprise Institute for Public Policy Research, according to the Ross School.

An Iowa native, McCracken earned his bachelor’s degree from what now is William Penn University. He earned his master’s degree and doctorate from Harvard University.

He worked as economist and research director for the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis before affiliating with University of Michigan.

He retired from teaching in 1986, but continued to meet with students and other faculty on the school’s campus. “Not only was he an excellent scholar, he was a worldly adviser who shared his wisdom with presidents in the White House and with students and colleagues in the Winter Garden,� dean and business professor Alison Davis-Blake said in a statement. “I loved seeing Paul frequent our building, long past his ‘retirement.’ He set a wonderful example for our current faculty and students, and is a testament to the enduring legacy of education.�

He is survived by two daughters, Langer and Paula McCracken.

Oregon native works as designer on NBC’s ‘Grimm’

By Karl Klooster The News-Register

MCMINNVILLE — If you’d told Jerod Bogh a couple of years ago that he would soon be designing demonic villains for a network television show, he’d have thought you had lost your way and wandered into la-la land.

But here it is, the beginning of August 2012, and he’s working on the NBC hit TV series “Grimm.� In fact, he’s playing a key role in the creation of some very creepy characters for that show.

And he’s up to the challenge.

The almost McMinnville native — he came to Mac at the age of 3 — began demonstrating exceptional artistic talent early on.

After graduating from McMinnville High School in 2006, Bogh’s initial goal was to pursue a college degree.

So he enrolled at Linn-Benton Community College.

However, he quickly became disillusioned with the curriculum’s meager art offerings. Returning to McMinnville, he took some time to ponder what he should do next.

He then decided to attend the Art Institute of Portland, where he spent several months adding solid fundamentals to his inherent abilities.

But to land a job as a commercial artist or designer these days, one must not only possess first-rate artistic talent, but also top-notch computer graphic skills.

So he enrolled at the Art Institute of Seattle, which promised an intensive focus on digital media art and animation.

Once again, reality fell well short of expectations for Bogh. “I had already been learning the latest animation program on my own,� he said. “When I started the classes in Seattle, I realized they didn’t know any more than I did, if as much.�

By the “latest,� he was referring to ZBrush 4, a wayahead-of-the-curve, 3-D digital sculpting program.

According to Pixologic, the company that developed the program, “It gives you access to unparalleled power and control previously unknown in digital art creation software.� And Pixologic is being heralded as the Pixar of computer generated imagery, known as “CGI� in the animation industry.

Having now built some

credible samples of his work using ZBrush, Bogh decided to pursue an internship in digital effects production, known as “FX� in the pantheon of industry acronyms.

He found just what he was looking for with HIVE-FX, a Portland-headquartered digital graphics firm, where he landed an intern job. And the timing couldn’t have been better. “It’s all about your portfolio,� Bogh said. “You can have all sorts of credentials and degrees, but if you can’t show examples of your talent and skills, none of it means much.�

That basic body of work made him a perfect fit at HIVE-FX, which had just landed a contract with the “Grimm� producers to create some of its starring creatures.

NBC calls the series, which debuted on Oct. 28, 2011, “a dark fantasy.� It follows Portland Police Bureau homicide Detective Nick Burkhardt, played by David Giuntoli, who learns he is descended from a group of hunter-guardians known as the Grimms.

With the help of a friend, Monroe, a supernatural villain who has reformed, and Detective Hank Griffin, his partner on the squad, Burkhardt battles supernatural creatures threatening the world as we know it.

Tension-filled tales punctuated by macabre metaphors lend each episode a flavor that fans admiringly call “really creepy.�

HIVE got in on the ground floor with “Grimm.� The company was able to make a key contribution by ensuring that the show set a new standard for excellence in “morphing� animation The success allowed HIVE to move from a modest office to a huge warehouse in inner southeast Portland, and to staff it with some of the best and brightest talents around.

Bogh couldn’t be happier about that. “This is an L.A. budget show being produced in Portland,� he said. “We’ve been given a wonderful opportunity. We’re working our tails off and we’re glad to be doing it.�

By the time the second season debuts later this month, the crew will have a whole stable of new creatures ready. For now, their shapes, sizes, identities and powers are being kept under close wraps, but you can count on some surprises.

Wolf Continued from B1 When they reach 2 or 3 years of age, wolves will often set out on their own, as OR-7 did in September 2011 when he left the Imnaha pack. That May, four months earlier, his brother, OR3, left on a similar trek.

While OR-3 was the first wolf tracked into Central Oregon in 70 years when he reached the Ochocos in September, he has since vanished. He hasn’t been tracked since Sept. 29, 2011. It is unclear whether OR-3 died or is still on the move.

The wolves wear different types of tracking collars. While the collar OR-3 wears sends out a radio signal, it can only be picked up by a receiver within 5 to 10 miles on the ground or about 30 miles from the air. The collar on OR-7 beams his location to a satellite daily.

The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife has collared 15 wolves, the most recent a pup from the Snake River Pack collared Thursday in Eastern Oregon, said Michelle Dennehy, spokeswoman for the ODFW. Not all the wolves are still wandering though.

Another brother of the wolves, OR-9, was killed by an Idaho hunter in February after leaving the pack and heading east, according to The Associated Press. While hunting wolves in Oregon is banned, there is a wolf hunting season in Idaho. Wolf reintroduction

in the West started in Idaho in the 1990s. The wolves spread to Oregon in 2008, where state sponsored hunts had wiped the animals out in the 1940s.

OR-7 made history and became a celebrity by walking into California.

As the first wolf in California in nearly 90 years — a hunter killed the last wild wolf in the state in Lassen County in 1924 — OR-7 has brought the controversy that has boiled for years in Eastern Oregon. Environmental groups want protections for wolves while ranchers want to keep them from attacking their cattle.

The Center for Biological Diversity and three other environmental groups are petitioning the California Department of Fish and Game commission, which oversees the DFG, to list the wolf as protected in California. The DFG is set to present a recommendation to the commission this week.

The groups also want California to develop a wolf management plan, like the one Oregon already has, said Noah Greenwald, endangered species director for the Center for Biological Diversity. The travels of OR-7 underline how the state should prepare for more like him.

“I think it just shows that wolves can get to California and there is habitat for them,” he said.

On Thursday, the House passed the Agricultural Disaster Assistance Act, which provides $383 million for drought relief, particularly for farmers who have lost livestock as a result. Emergency agricultural assistance is normally covered under a larger farm bill, but a five-year farm bill did not receive a vote in the House before the August recess. The disaster relief bill passed by a 223-197 vote, with 188 Republicans and 35 Democrats voting in its favor and 151 Democrats and 46 Democrats voting against it.

On Tuesday, the House passed a bill that reduces the number of executive branch positions that require Senate confirmation. In an effort to streamline the confirmation process, the bill cuts numerous jobs that require a Senate vote, including the Department of Agriculture’s assistant secretary for administration, the Treasury Department’s assistant secretaries for management and for public affairs, and the Education Department’s assistant secretary for management. The measure passed by a vote of 261 to 116, with 166 Democrats and 95 Republicans voting for it. All but one of the no votes were cast by Republicans.

Vault in state treasurer’s office now just a curiosity

By Michael Rose Statesman Journal

SALEM — At the Oregon State Treasurer’s Office in Salem, there’s an imposing relic from the days before electronic banking.

The state treasurer’s vault at the Capitol is a curiosity, no longer serving its intended purpose. The vault is more than a hunk of impenetrable metal.

On a recent tour, Oregon State Treasurer Ted Wheeler pulled opened the vault’s door, grasping the spoked wheel used to lock it down.

“Why am I thinking of Captain Nemo when I do that?”

Wheeler said.

Gleaming plate steel parts give the vault a steampunk look. Moving the two-foot-

thick door is like nudging an elephant: after it starts to move, it’s hard to stop.

The Mosler Safe Co., a storied Ohio safe maker that also made Sherman tank turrets in World War II, built the vault in the 1930s.

Cashier’s checks for investments and money for the state payroll once were stored inside. Cashier’s checks were held in the vault well into the mid-1990s.

These days, officials don’t bother locking the vault.

There’s no gold or greenbacks, only office supplies and stacks of children’s books for a treasury-backed financial literacy program.

The space is compact, about 11 paces long by six paces wide. Because the vault

is uncomfortably warm or cold, depending on the season, using it for office space isn’t practical.

It was, however, a den for a large, stuffed toy python during Oregon State Treasurer Ben Westlund’s tenure.

Oregon Gov. Barbara Roberts’ security detail evaluated using the vault as an emergency shelter for the governor in the event of an earthquake, said one longtime treasury employee.

A few nooks remain a mystery on par with Al Capone’s “secret” vault opened by Geraldo Rivera in the 1980s.

As part of a state audit last year, officials decided it was time to see what was inside, Wheeler said.

The combintions to six

safes inside the vault having been lost, a safe specialist was hired. The professional, Wheeler said, arrived with computer-controlled gear that automatically manipulated the safes’ dials.

Unlike in movies about a big heist, the safes didn’t all click open after a dramatic pause. A couple of them remained locked.

Penney Ryan, director of executive services and a longtime employee of the Oregon State Treasury, doubts the safes contain anything of value.

“We know there’s not a gold bar back there,” Ryan said. The last official use of the safes was for storing microfiche and back-up tapes of electronic records, she said.

Foster kids need school supplies Sleep Country USA is collecting donations of new school supplies at its stores from now through Sept. 9 to benefit local foster children.

The bedding supply company suggested in a news release that donations include: No. 2 pencils, black or blue pens, backpacks, looseleaf paper, five-subject notebooks, three-ring binders and flash drives.

“Children are often apprehensive about their first few days of school and for foster children, who may be starting the school year in a new home, with new friends and teachers, the first days can be even more nerve-racking,” said Linda Rogers, regional foster parent recruitment coordinator for Families for Kids, a foster care organization. “Having a new backpack and the same school supplies as their peers gives them the confidence to start the school year without first-day jitters. With foster kids 20 percent more likely to drop out of school and twice as likely to repeat a grade, programs like Sleep Country’s help foster kids excel both in school and through the rest of their lives.”

Donate supplies at any store in the region.

The Sleep Country store in Bend is at 63455 N. U.S. Highway 97. Call 541-318-8364.

The Oregon Skyway gondola, which climbs more than 1,500 feet to the summit of 6,666-foot Eagle Peak at Willamette Pass Resort, operates through Labor Day weekend. Below the Skyway, dense forest enshrouds Odell Lake and all but the upper reaches of 8,743-foot Diamond Peak.

Odell Lake Lodge & Resort, established at the outlet of Odell Creek in 1903, anchors the east end of Odell Lake two miles from Crescent Lake Junction. The lodge offers guests rustic lodge rooms and cabins, home-cooked meals and a choice of boat rentals from the efficient marina.

on weekends, but delays of 10 to 20 minutes are common as travel funnels into a single lane.

Exploring the area That said, there’s plenty to do in the area of Willamette Pass, even if you do get stuck on the east side of the mountain for a day or two in summer. And you can start with Willamette Pass Resort itself.

Apart from the unforgettable view, Willamette Pass is home to some of the finest mountain-biking terrain in the Cascades, an outstanding disc golf course and geocaching opportunities.

The resort’s Summit House Lodge is a spacious building whose casual restaurant features a gift shop and large windows that look out upon the Eagle Peak gondola.

Tickets for the gondola are sold at the same counter where food orders are placed. The cost of a oneday, all-access pass is $14 for adults, $8 for kids 5 to 10 and seniors (65 and older), and $2 for dogs. If you have a bike — which

you’ll have to bring along if you want to ride, as there are no rentals on the mountain — that will cost you another $14.

The views to the south are great, but I discovered northerly views far better from Peak 2, a secondary (albeit slightly higher) summit just a quarter-mile’s walk from the top of Eagle Peak. It is definitely worth the short hike.

On the day of my visit, mountain bikers of all ages were in the majority on the mountain. Many of them were training for the following day’s downhill bicycling race.

A Skyway map showed mile after mile of mountain-biking trails from the top of Eagle Peak. Some, such as Mind Bender, are considered expert-only terrain, but there is a variety of options for bikers of any ability level.

Back-to-back parties of disc golfers — two middleaged men, followed by a quartet of 20-somethings — demonstrated extremes in the art of launching flying discs.

Kevin Bleyer had a modest goal in mind when he wrote his new book, “Me the People.” He didn’t want to rewrite all of history — just the Constitution of the United States.

Patriots whose heads spin at the audacity of a mere mortal rewriting such a revered document, you can relax. The Constitution is in good hands.

The Seattleraised, New York-based Bleyer is an Emmy Awardwinning writer for Comedy Central’s “The Daily Show.”

And by his count, and that of Thomas Jefferson, the Constitution should have been rewritten about 11 times now.

“In my research, or as I have often called it, my ‘mesearch’ — after all, it is called ‘Me the People’ — I learned that this is long overdue, that I should have done this 200 years ago, because Thomas Jefferson, in fact, said that every constitution naturally expires after 19 years,” Bleyer said Monday by phone during a brief break in taping of “The Daily Show.” “I feel like I’m righting a historic wrong by stepping up to the plate.”

Don’t just take his word for it. Bleyer will visit Barnes & Noble in Bend on Saturday to read from the book (see “If you go”). Though Bleyer was raised in Seattle, his family often vacationed in Central Oregon, and many of his family members now call Bend home.

He considered becoming a “real journalist, before I realized it might be more fun to become a fake one,” he says.

After a stint with public radio in London, Bleyer landed a job at “Politically Incorrect with Bill Maher,” where he stayed for six years. He also served as a writer and producer for Dennis Miller before landing at “The Daily Show,” where he’s been for seven years.

Bleyer cowrote “Earth: The Book” in 2010; “Me the People” also mixes the historical and the hysterical.

George Washington, he writes, decried “the final draft as a wishy-washy document that invited too many interpretations, a ‘child of fortune to be fostered by some and buffeted by others.’ ” He adds in a footnote, “Say what you will about George Washington: He may have had wooden teeth, but he had great vision.”

SUNDAY, AUGUST 5, 2012 • THE BULLETIN

A & A

Wife’s choice of wardrobe for son is too girly for dad Dear Abby: I’m becoming increasingly concerned about my wife, “Traci,� and her influence over our 3-year-old son, “Grant.� I love having a son, as does Traci, although she always wanted a little girl.

Unfortunately, we haven’t been able to have another child, and my wife’s focus on our son appears to be somewhat skewed.

Over the last few months, Traci has been buying Grant more and more feminine clothing. I’m OK with a pink shirt now and then, but lately it has gotten out of hand. She has been close to dressing Grant in drag. My wife says not to take it so seriously, but it bothers me when people tell us we have a “lovely little girl.�

I’m worried that what my wife is doing will have an adverse effect on my son, but at the same time I need to know if I’m overreacting. — It’s a Boy! Dear It’s a Boy!: My experts tell me that there is no data that demonstrates what your wife is doing will cause gender confusion in your son. What’s important is that you talk to her and express your concerns privately. Your little boy is at an age where he can sense stress in your marriage, and that could cause him problems later on. More important than what clothes he’s wearing is decreasing the level of stress on the boy.

Dear Abby: I’m dating a man who is genuine, considerate, thoughtful, humble, responsible, committed to his family, and we have great physical chemistry.

Unfortunately, there is no intellectual/social “connection.� We have never had an intellectually stimulating conversation, and I’m not sure he’s even someone I would have picked to be friends with, although we do share interests in the outdoors and our faith. I feel emotionally secure with him and keep wondering if I’m being overly critical or choosing to stay in a relationship out of fear of not finding someone better in time to start a family. (I’m in my early 30s.)

This year you frequently look at the big picture, and you’ll make better decisions. Curb a tendency to overdo things or to overindulge yourself. If you are single, you will want to meet Mr. or Ms. Right Now. Be open. You could meet this person sometime this year, but enjoy the people you meet while getting there. If you are attached, sometimes you are too caught up in your own feelings, and you lose your self-discipline. Learn to let go, and you will have a great time together. ARIES is very impulsive.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHHH Handle a personal matter in the morning. This issue could involve a parent or elder. By midday, your energy will soar. If you could do anything, what would it be? Head out the door, and do just that. Tonight: All smiles.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH You know what you want and clearly have a chosen direction.

Accomplish key matters in the morning. Meet with family members or friends for a late brunch or movie.

Make it OK to say little as your mind races. Tonight: Not to be found.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Your presence could be far more pivotal than you realize. You draw friends and admirers into your camp. How you see a situation could change after you hear more feedback from other interested parties. Toss your worries aside, and simply enjoy those who surround you. Tonight: Act as if there is no tomorrow.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH Touch base with someone at a distance. Exchanging news will make you feel as if you are in the same town.

Make plans to get together in the near future. By midafternoon, you’ll reach out for a parent or older relative.

Tonight: A force to be dealt with.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHHH Your sweetie makes it clear that he or she wants more of your time. You could enjoy a very leisurely day together if you do not answer the phone. News from a distance might energize you. Make calls, and invite others to join you at a favorite exotic restaurant. Tonight: Choose the unusual.

TODAY DEAR ABBY Please advise. — Indecisive in Pleasanton, Calif.

Dear Indecisive: To be frank, no one person has “everything.� If intellectual stimulation is the quality that’s most important to you, then the man you have been dating isn’t the one for you. The fine qualities you listed would weigh heavily in his favor with many women.

What you must ask yourself is whether or not you can be with him and find intellectual stimulation elsewhere when you feel you need it.

Dear Abby: I have four grown children between the ages of 21 and 25. For years I had a career, supported them financially and put them through college and trade schools.

I remarried last January. My youngest daughter now says my kids are no longer No. 1 in my life and she will no longer speak to me. I told her my husband and all my children will always be No. 1 — just in a different way.

She’s having a baby soon and hasn’t included me in her life since January. Mind you, the baby is from a drug cartel man, they both have felonies, and she recently married her high school sweetheart.

I’m torn between getting on with my life or trying to reach out to her with hugs and kisses every now and then via snail mail. She has blocked me on Facebook and changed her cellphone number. Any suggestions? — Torn in Tucson Dear Torn: Yes. Get on with your life. On her birthday and at Christmas send cards to let her know you love her and are thinking of her. When she needs you for something, I guarantee she’ll contact you. Until then, don’t hold your breath. — Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Horoscope: Happy Birthday for Sunday, Aug. 5, 2012

By Jacqueline Bigar

C3

HHHHH You might be exchanging so many hellos and well wishes wherever you are that you’ll want a nap afterward. Indeed, spending some quiet time with a loved one in the afternoon will re-energize you.

Do not hold back with this person.

Tonight: Dinner for two.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH You could be surprised by how much a lazy morning could mean. Sometimes not being accountable is important for you and for others. By midafternoon, an invitation comes your way that you want to say “yes� to. Tonight: Love the one you are with.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Enjoy a childlike person in your life; he or she absolutely adores you. When you start interacting with this person, you’ll feel like a kid, too.

Break down your barriers and enjoy the moment. Later today, you can put on your not-so-vulnerable face. Tonight: Start thinking about tomorrow.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Getting going might be a slow process, if for no other reason than it’s just habit. Break past barriers and do what you want in the daylight hours. You could be taken aback by the spring in your step and by how rejuvenated you feel. Tonight: Be naughty and nice.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Making morning calls and visiting with a key person could keep you busy into the middle part of the day. Invite family over for an early dinner. You could be surprised by some of the news you hear. Someone spills the beans! Tonight: Relax.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHH Be aware of how much you give to people, and not necessarily in the form of money or material assets.

Plan a late brunch with a dear friend whom you never have enough time to visit. You might want to keep your schedule clear for the rest of the day.

Tonight: Return emails.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Use the daylight hours to the max, when others appear to be more responsive to your energy.

Understanding evolves during an important talk with a loved one.

Money could be a key issue between you. Try to walk away from this element. Tonight: Have a talk with a loved one over dessert. Š 2011 by King Features Syndicate

THE BULLETIN • SUNDAY, AUGUST 5, 2012

Willamette Continued from C1 From a level, gravel-filled platform near the mountaintop, the first of 18 that descend the peak, the “golfers” attempted to fling their discs as near as possible to a chainlink basket. Two discs hooked to the left, through trees and down a steep incline. But one skillful player landed his first throw at the foot of the basket.

Several geocaches are hidden on the mountain slopes as well, encouraging orienteers to try to locate them. On Sept.

1, the Skyway’s final Saturday of the season, both disc golfers and geocachers are invited to compete in separate tournaments.

Then the resort will close until there’s a sufficient snow to operate its six lifts, probably sometime in late November.

Odell Lake Not everyone who ventures to Willamette Pass is interested in mountaintops, however.

Those who turn down the short roads to Odell Lake have mainly come for the fishing.

Six miles long, 1½ miles wide, cigar-shaped Odell was carved by a glacier during the ice ages. State-record mackinaw (lake trout) of more than 40 pounds have been caught by anglers trolling its depths, which average 132 feet and drop to more than twice that.

Additionally, the lake is regarded as a prime kokanee (non-ocean-going salmon) and rainbow trout fishery, and it is also home to substantial numbers of mountain whitefish and endangered bull trout.

Its east-west perspective attracts southwesterly winds that make Odell popular among windsurfers, despite its cold temperature. But those same winds can get very strong by midafternoon, and the dozens

The marina at Hoodoo’s Crescent Lake Resort rents fishing boats, kayaks and other water-sports equipment to guests.

Slightly smaller than Odell Lake, Crescent attracts fishermen to try their luck at catching kokanee, mackinaw, rainbow and brown trout, and mountain whitefish.

Before a backdrop of Odell Lake, a mountain biker careens through rocks and dust as he heads down a trail off Eagle Peak at Willamette Pass. Mountain biking, disc golf and geocaching are among the most popular summer activities at the ski resort.

of boats I saw on the lake on the morning of my recent visit were gone by afternoon.

There are resorts at either end of this lake. Directly below Willamette Pass, the Shelter Cove Resort & Marina offers a distinctly personal touch, as longtime owner-managers Jim and Trula Kielblock live among their guests. A handful of cabins share the shoreline with 70 RV sites surrounding a marina that always seems to be bustling.

At the east end of the lake, the Odell Lake Lodge has nestled among the firs at the outlet of Odell Creek since 1903.

Well-loved by generations of families that still gather from all over the state, it offers rustic lodge rooms and cabins, plus home-cooked meals in a cozy dining room. The fishing docks are a wonderful place from which to watch the sun

set across the water.

Crescent Lake The Odell Lake lodge is just two miles up state Highway 58 from Crescent Lake Junction, the only community of any size in the immediate Willamette Pass area. Here is a handful of shops, including a grocery store and real-estate office.

There’s also a comfortable motel (the Willamette Pass Inn); a long-established tavern (Manley’s), locally famous for its “broasted” chicken; and a newer cafe (the Moonshine) serving breakfast and lunch daily, dinner on weekends.

Crescent Lake is a little more than two miles south of the junction community.

Several campgrounds are located around its shores, along with a Boy Scout camp and the day-use Simax Recreation Area, which offers picnicking

Guest log cabins at Shelter Cove Resort & Marina are equipped with picnic tables and fire pits for dining among the fir trees that line the shore of Odell Lake.

The resort, just downhill from Willamette Pass, also has 70 RV sites.

along a broad sandy beach.

Trailheads point hikers to numerous smaller lakes in the region, connecting to the Pacific Crest Trail system.

The lake itself is only slightly smaller than Odell — five miles across with an average depth of 124 feet. Fishermen come here primarily for kokanee, although the fishery also includes mackinaw, rainbow and brown trout, and mountain whitefish. There are substantially more second homes around the lakeshore than at Odell, and visitors are more likely to encounter the buzz of jet skis and water skiers than at its neighbor.

The only lakeside lodging is at the Crescent Lake Resort, owned by Hoodoo Recreation — the same company that has the Hoodoo Ski Area at Santiam Pass. Situated at the lake’s north end, nearest the junction, it boasts a broad shoreside patio where three meals a day are served from the intimate Pines Bar & Grill. The resort is upgrading its rustic cabins of various sizes, from studio to three-bedroom. Fishing boats, kayaks, mountain bikes and other equipment are available for rent.

And then there’s Waldo Lake, the jewel of the Cascades. Because it has no permanent inlet to carry nutrients into the spring-fed lake that might support plant growth, it is considered by hydrologists to be one of the purest lakes in the world: On a calm day, you can see to depths of 120 feet.

Almost six miles from north to south, as many as 2.7 miles wide, Waldo may be reached by a two-lane blacktop road that turns north off state High-

way 58 about two miles west of Willamette Pass, and climbs to 5,414 feet. This road keeps well away from the lakeshore; only two spur routes descend to campgrounds at Waldo’s southeast corner (Shadow Bay, nine miles from Highway 58) and northeast corner (Islet and North Waldo, 13 miles from Highway 58).

The northern campgrounds were evacuated in 1996 when

the devastating Charlton fire swept along the north shore of Waldo. The scars are still evident today, 16 years later.

A couple enjoy canoeing near the Islet Campground on the northeastern flank of Waldo Lake. Gasoline motors are not permitted on the lake, and a 10-mph speed limit is enforced, helping to preserve the clarity of water that can be seen to depths of 120 feet.

A 286-foot cataract, Salt Creek Falls are Oregon’s secondhighest after Multnomah Falls.

From previous page The lake’s Willamette National Forest guardians are vigilant about protecting its clarity. In 1984, the 37,000acre Waldo Lake Wilderness was established to the north, west and south of the lake. The biannual practice of stocking its waters with young trout ended in 1990, and two years ago, gasoline motors were banned. Electric motors are still allowed on the lake, which enforces a speed limit of 10 mph, but you’re more likely to see canoes (as I did) and rowboats.

Salt Creek Falls One more area attraction is a “must” for any visitor. Salt Creek Falls pours 286 feet over a basalt cliff four miles west of Willamette Pass — just at the point where flaggers begin their traffic-control work for the Salt Creek Tunnel renovation.

The Bulletin’s David Jasper described a family outing to the falls in the June 28 edition, so I won’t go into detail in this article.

The second-highest waterfall in the state, after Multnomah Falls, Salt Creek Falls is indeed on Salt Creek — the Middle Fork of the Willamette River tributary that was named for the salt licks enjoyed by deer and other animals at mineral springs along its course.

The damp cliff behind the falls is a rare nesting place for the solitary black swift. According to an interpretive sign near the falls, these birds lay a single egg. The chick hatches in early to mid-July. It remains in the nest for a month while its parents range as far as 50 miles from home to scavenge insects, which once or twice a day they will regurgitate to feed the chick.

Now’s the time. If you hurry to Willamette Pass, you might be lucky to see the motherand-child reunion … and also get the big picture from atop Eagle Peak.

There is no better place to tell fish stories at Odell Lake’s Shelter Cove Resort & Marina than at the fish cleaning station beside its marina. Anglers head out each morning in hope of landing giant mackinaw and kokanee; by afternoon, southwesterly winds send them back to shore.

The Olympic Games are a rare event when experts encourage parents to switch on the TV and settle in to the couch alongside their kids.

The three-week coverage will quickly max out a family’s screen time limits, but what’s being shown can break records in the teachable moments category.

Child development specialist Betsy Brown Braun wrote an essay on Huffington Post this week titled, “Why You Should Watch the Summer Olympics With Your Kids.”

“Beyond sheer entertainment, there’s much to be learned by watching the games on the demon screen — exposure to different sports and their rules, learning about other cultures and experiencing the more subtle points of competition like effort, loss, and sometimes winning … .

“Don’t miss this opportunity to teach your kids important lessons. Join your child on the couch and be a student in one of the world’s great classrooms: The Summer Olympics,” she urged.

Even with all the passive engagement, the advertising and the likelihood of mindless munching, child experts say the opportunity for good outweighs the bad.

SUNDAY, AUGUST 5, 2012 • THE BULLETIN

By Katy Read (Minneapolis) Star Tribune

We’d all love to age gracefully, but it might be easier if we knew what the heck that meant.

Does aging gracefully mean cheerfully accepting gray hair and other physical changes, the way Barbara Bush (age 87) seemingly does? Or, on the other hand, does it require staying eternally gorgeous as the years slide by, like Sophia Loren (77)? Is it keeping a busy schedule of work or public service, like Jimmy Carter (87) or Betty White (90)? Or being super fit, like 68-yearold champion long-jumper Carl Etter of Duluth, Minn.?

Or maybe it’s gradually slowing down, relaxing, spending time in the garden, enjoying the grandchildren .

Depends on your perspective.

A few years ago, Ecumen, the giant Shoreview, Minn.based senior housing and services company, compiled a list of graceful aging suggestions from customers and staff.

They included such time-honored pieces of wisdom as “get enough sleep,” “exercise,” “get a yearly checkup,” “drink and eat in moderation,” “treat others with respect.” Those tips, of course, are sound advice for people of any age. Others were a little more specific to

Bleyer Continued from C1 “Kind of surprisingly, a lot of the big-hitters, a lot of the big names we’ve heard of, at the end of the Constitutional Convention, were very mixed, and kind of had to, with forced grins, kind of shake each other’s hands and say, ‘We all like this Constitution, don’t we, more or less?’

“Washington said he wished it had been made more perfect, and Franklin said he could only stomach it with all its faults,” Bleyer says. “It’s interesting when we think of this assembly of demigods, and of course, that is what they were, but they also had a little bit of self-awareness to realize, ‘We did this under duress, under less than optimum circumstances … and we got angry with each other, and we made some great compromises.’

“Now, we of course think of those great compromises as The Great Compromise.

That’s why we venerate it and revere it so. And we should, but if we really took a coldeyed stare at this, (we’d) notice that the founding fathers themselves would be surprised that it’s lasted 200 years.”

Bleyer explains that in

older people: • Realize that although your body deteriorates, your spirit grows stronger if you allow it.

• Dress in current styles.

By adding a trendy piece to a classic outfit, you will look and feel good.

• Maintain muscle mass, which will protect you from falling.

• Create milestones and work toward them. No matter how big or small, the journey is a growing experience.

Want more? We decided to ask a few other local people with ties to organizations for older people what “aging gracefully” means to them.

“Coping with the vicissitudes of aging with spirit, dignity and humor,” is the succinct summary provided by LaRhae Knatterud, director of Aging Transformation for the Minnesota Department of Human Services.

One of Ecumen’s tips was: “Practice acceptance. Know that there’s a very good chance that your mobility will lessen as you age. Think about how you will deal with that so that when that time comes, you can still live fully.”

Nancy Eustis, 71, learned that lesson rather abruptly at age 40, when a car accident left her a quadriplegic.

Since then, Eustis has

worked on skills such as acceptance, gratitude, optimism, and taking one day at a time. As a retiree, she has been active in local organizations for older people, including Vital Aging Network and the Invisible Force.

“I have goals, projects and involvement with other people,” said Eustis, retired professor emerita from the University of Minnesota’s Humphrey School. “I try to contribute, I get out of the apartment, and my juices keep flowing.”

Graceful aging, like so many other things, can depend on financial security, noted Milford Johnson, 79, a volunteer at the state Council on Black Minnesotans and host of the radio show Senior Perspectives at KMOJ, where he is popularly known as Brother Milford.

In his senior-housing building, “there are women who have buried three husbands and sold three homes. They’re growing old rather gracefully.

They’re out to the Ordway and the Guthrie and other cultural things,” Johnson said. “But people living in the poverty sector aren’t living that kind of lifestyle. If you’ve got a minimal pension, social security and Medicare, then you’re living from month to month, for the most part.”

his Constitutional rewrite, the first 80 percent of each chapter, “with a few jokes in there,” addresses the issues and concerns people have with the Constitution, articles and amendments. “Whether they support them or think they should be rewritten, at least I’m addressing getting to the nub of the debate,” Bleyer says.

“As soon as I get to that raw nub, as soon as I get to the core of what we’re actually discussing, well then, admittedly, my solutions are absurd, but hopefully, illuminating nonetheless.”

He makes the new Preamble rhyme. He flips the First and Second articles so that the president comes first, “because, after all, what other country has an American president? None. So why don’t we lead with it?” he says.

Further, everyone becomes a member of Congress the moment they’re born. “That way we know the name of our congressman, and approval will probably skyrocket.”

Bleyer goes toe-to-toe, or fork-to-fork, over a lunch with Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, during which Bleyer suggests that lifetime tenure may not be a great thing in 2012 for the Supreme Court.

“He took it well. I was, after all, coming just shy of firing him,” Bleyer says. “He was very generous, and between you, me and the rest of the world, got the joke.”

His chapter on the loaded subject of the Second Amendment gets the most serious treatment in what is otherwise “a hopefully amusing history book,” Bleyer says.

“When I started to research it, it was not long after (Gabrielle) Giffords was shot, and actually Gabby is a friend of mine,” he says, referring to the U.S. congresswoman who was shot outside an Arizona Safeway in 2011.

“I will say my solution to the Second Amendment relies entirely on punctuation,” Bleyer says. “If punctuation and grammar is the reason that the Second Amendment is a bit confusing, I thought, ‘I’ll add as much punctuation and grammar as ....’ ” Before he could finish, Bleyer was summoned back to taping that evening’s episode of “The Daily Show.”

He left in a hurry, his Second Amendment thought left hanging.

Guess we’ll just have to arm ourselves with his book to find out.

Elks fall on the road to Gems KLAMATH FALLS — Klamath Falls scored four runs in the fourth inning to break open its West Coast League baseball game with Bend on Saturday night as the Gems pulled away for an 11-3 victory.

The Gems finished the night with 16 hits, including four doubles and a home run. Grant Newton led the Elks on offense with a two for four performance at the plate, including a double. Darian Ramage belted a triple for Bend with an RBI, while Will Sparks had one hit for a home run.

The Gems starting pitcher Dalton Douty picked up the victory.

The loss knocked Bend (22-27) 1 1⁄2 games behind the Gems (24-25) for the second playoff spot out of the West Division. The two teams will battle again tonight in Klamath Falls at 6:05.

The Elks will return home on Monday when they take on Kitsap for one game at 6:35 p.m.

Cowlitz will then come to Bend for a threegame series starting Tuesday.

Partnership pays off in 10,000 • Alberto Salazar’s ’Oregon Project’ ends with gold and silver in London

By Brian Hamilton Chicago Tribune

LONDON — Down the track he came with the stadium’s howling, gale-force British hope filling every molecule of air he swallowed, his best friend and training partner strides ahead of him while Galen Rupp kept running for his life.

The thunderous clangor was for Mo Farah, Britain’s own. He had the 10,000-meter race lead. Rupp, the bumpkin-faced interloper from Portland had Ethiopians to outcharge. It was the scene Rupp’s coach set a day earlier with spectral clairvoyance: You have a chance to win, Alberto Salazar told him. You have to do it in the final 100 meters.

So as they crossed the line, one after another, Farah’s eyes bulged as he slapped his clean-shaven scalp. Rupp screamed for his friend through the din — “Hey! Mo!” — and seized him in an embrace. One had become a national hero, Britain’s first 10,000 champion. The other became only the third American, ever, to earn an Olympic medal in this race.

• About 2,000 participants take part in the fifth annual Cascade Lakes Relay from Diamond Lake to Bend

By Amanda Miles The Bulletin

On Saturday afternoon, teams crossed the finish line of the Cascade Lakes Relay more in a trickle than a mad rush.

As the CLR is designed more for tortoises than hares, that does make some sense. Over much of the day on Saturday, about 200 teams — adding up

to more than 2,000 individual participants in total — worked their way to the finish of this year’s fifth annual distance-running relay event. The vast majority completed the 216-mile relay from Diamond Lake to Summit High School in west Bend on 12person teams. Walking teams and high school squads raced 132 miles from Silver Lake to the high school.

“This is, I think the best year for us ever,” said So Delicious team captain Jennifer Aleshire, of Springfield, whose team was participating for the third time in the Cascade Lakes Relay. “The volunteers were great directing traffic, and the course was clearly laid out. I think it was ... the best year yet.”

• Sunriver’s Carol Woodruff has a unique way of putting SUNRIVER — arol Woodruff ZACK stands on the HALL green eyes closed, hands on her putter, which is dangling from her crossed arms.

It appears as though she is having a religious experience.

But Woodruff is not praying on this sunny afternoon on the practice green at Sunriver Resort’s Meadows course.

C

No, the 71-year-old Sunriver resident is searching for a line on a putt. And the way she does it probably looks nothing like anything you’ve seen before.

“Every time I play with anybody (they comment about it),” says Woodruff, a regular in Sunriver’s club games. “It’s because they don’t see it anywhere else.”

See Line / D7

Ryan Brennecke / The Bulletin

Carol Woodruff uses an unorthodox method of judging the contours of the putting green by closing her eyes and feeling how the green slopes under her feet.

Haas committed no unforced errors in the first set.

The 70-year-old Calhoun was cycling near his summer home in Madison, Conn., when he hit some sand and fell, said associate head coach George Blaney. The Hall of Fame coach was still in surgery at 11 p.m., said Maureen McGuire, a spokeswoman for the UConn Health Center in Farmington.

Mixed martial arts • Rua, Machida post big UFC wins in Fox show: Former champion Lyoto Machida stopped Ryan Bader with one punch midway through the second round of the UFC’s latest prime-time network show Saturday night in Los Angeles, getting a knockout that might have earned him a chance to reclaim his title.

2012 Summer Olympics

ROUNDUP

Phelps golden in finale, retires with 22 medals

By Jay Cohen The Associated Press

LONDON — When it was over, Michael Phelps hugged his teammates, then headed off the deck for the final time.

Reclaiming the lead with his trademark butterfly stroke, Phelps won the 18th gold of an unparalleled career when he helped the U.S. win the 4x100meter medley relay Saturday night.

Phelps retires with twice as many golds as any other Olympian, and his total of 22 medals is easily the best mark, too.

“It’s been a great career,” he said. “It’s been a great journey.

I can’t be any more happy than I am.”

The U.S. women also won the medley relay on swimming’s final night at the games, setting a world record in the final.

Ranomi Kromowidjojo of the Netherlands took the women’s 50-meter freestyle to complete a sweep of the sprints, and China’s Sun Yang lowered his own world record while winning the men’s 1,500 freestyle.

Britain’s banner day stretched from Dorney Lake to Olympic Stadium, which opened with Oscar Pistorius’ debut and ended with a crowdpleasing performance by the home team.

How to describe the action in track and field? The Blade Runner and Britannia. Jamaica also got a big victory when ShellyAnn Fraser-Pryce raced to another gold in the women’s 100 meters, keeping the cherished sprinting title in the Caribbean country.

Pistorius, a double-amputee who runs on carbon-fiber blades, finished second in his 400-meter heat to earn a berth in the semifinals tonight. He posted a season-best time of 45.44 seconds.

“I’ve worked for six years ... to get my chance,” said the South African, who became the first amputee to compete on the track at an Olympics. “I found myself smiling in the starting block. Which is very rare in the 400 meters.”

Team GB sent a charge through the capacity crowd with a quick series of victories, producing repeated roars that could be heard throughout Olympic Park.

The victors: Jessica Ennis in heptathlon; Greg Rutherford in men’s long jump; and Mo Farah in the men’s 10,000 meters.

Three gold medals in about one hour for the host country — and the capper to a big British surge.

The hosts pulled in two more golds on the final day of the Olympic regatta, and another in women’s pursuit at the London Velodrome.

Serena Williams blew away the field at Wimbledon.

The American star became only the second woman to achieve a Golden Slam, routing Maria Sharapova 6-0, 6-1 in the most lopsided women’s final in Olympic history.

The victory completed a remarkable run of domination by the No. 4-seeded Williams, who lost only 17 games in six matches en route to her first singles gold medal. She went 13-0 this

United States swimmer Michael Phelps holds up a silver trophy after being honored as the most decorated Olympian at the Aquatics Centre in the Olympic Park during the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, Saturday.

U.S. men survive first test, beat Lithuania LONDON — Still unbeaten, but perhaps more importantly, the U.S. is no longer untested.

The Americans got a game against Lithuania — and then some.

They got a scare.

Two days after running and gunning to a record-shattering 83-point win, the U.S. men’s Olympic basketball team had to come back in the fourth quarter for a 99-94 win over a fearless Lithuania team that had the Americans in serious trouble until the closing minutes.

LeBron James scored nine of his 20 points in the final four minutes for the U.S. (4-0), which had looked nearly invincible in thrashing Nigeria 156-73 on Thursday night and breaking several records.

But the Americans were reminded that the path to the gold medal is loaded with traps and Lithuania nearly sprang one.

“You want to get tested. The best teams want to be tested. We love the competition,” James said. “I think we’ve got some of the greatest competitors in our league, in this world, so you want to have a game where you feel like you were tested, and we had that today.”

Carmelo Anthony added 20 points, Kevin Durant 16 and Chris Paul added seven rebounds, six assists and four of the U.S. team’s 17 steals.

Linas Kleiza scored 25 to lead Lithuania, which led by 84-82 with 5:50 to play. After the U.S. took a three-point lead, Lithuania would not go away and pulled within 87-86 on Darius Songaila’s bucket with 4:12 left.

summer at the All England Club, where she won her fifth Wimbledon title a month ago.

Top-seeded Bob and Mike Bryan also won Olympic gold for the U.S., beating Michael Llodra and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga of France 6-4, 7-6 (2) in the men’s doubles final.

Roger Federer will try to complete a career Golden Slam when he plays Andy Murray of Britain in the men’s final today.

The rest of the Olympic action Saturday: BEACH VOLLEYBALL Two-time gold medalists Kerri Walsh Jennings and Misty May-Treanor beat the Netherlands in straight sets

to advance to the tournament quarterfinals.

The Americans topped Marleen van Iersel and Sanne Keizer 21-13, 21-12.

Reigning world champions Emanuel and Alison edged Germany 21-16, 21-14 to advance to the men’s quarters.

The Brazilians, the top-seeded team at the London Games, eliminated Jonathan Erdmann and Kay Matysik.

TRIATHLON Nicola Spirig of Switzerland won the gold medal in a photo finish with a Swedish challenger at the Olympic triathlon. The end of the race was so close that both women celebrated after crossing the line.

Spirig held off Lisa Norden to claim gold in 1 hour, 59 minutes, 48 seconds. The runners were given the same time, and Spirig was declared the winner after a few minutes of uncertainty.

Erin Densham of Australia took bronze on the course through Hyde Park in central London in 1:59.50.

VOLLEYBALL The U.S. men’s team blew a two-set lead and lost to Russia in five, snapping an 11-match winning streak in Olympic play.

Maxim Mikhaylov scored 27 points for No. 2 Russia in the 2729, 19-25, 26-24, 25-16, 15-8 victory. Sergey Tetyukhin spiked for match point.

Brazil, Germany, Poland, Argentina and Italy also won.

BOXING The British boxing team is on a remarkable roll at its home Olympics, and that’s just one reason the Indian team is furious.

Second-seeded light welterweight Tom Stalker beat India’s Manoj Kumar 20-16 for the 10th British win in 11 fights in London, moving six boxers to the brink of medal qualification.

Although Stalker and Kumar appeared to be evenly matched, Kumar and his coaching staff criticized the judges and the tournament after the fifth loss for a seven-man team that arrived in London hoping to add to its single Olympic boxing medal.

India did get a nice fight from light flyweight Devendro Laishram, who posted a 16-11 upset of fourth-seeded Serdamba Purevdorj of Mongolia.

Cuba’s Roniel Iglesias upset top-seeded Brazilian light welterweight Everton Dos Santos, while top-seeded light heavy-

weight Julio La Cruz of Cuba overwhelmed Jordan’s Ihab Almatbouli.

DIVING China’s Wu Mingxia cruised into the 3-meter springboard final after qualifying in the top spot during the Olympic semifinals.

Wu, who is seeking her record-tying sixth Olympic diving medal, totaled 394.400 points in the five rounds, giving her a lead of 32.30 points over second-place Tania Cagnotto of Italy, who had 362.100.

Wu already owns three gold medals in 3-meter synchro, as well as one silver and one bronze. One more would tie her with retired Chinese star Guo Jingjing, as well as give China its fifth diving gold of the London Games.

SHOOTING American Jamie Lynn Gray won the gold medal in women’s 50-meter three-position rifle shooting, setting two Olympic records along the way.

Gray clinched gold on her final shot with a 10.8 — just 0.1 off a perfect score.

Ivana Maksimovic of Serbia won the silver, and Adela Sykorova of the Czech Republic was third.

Italy’s Jessica Rossi won the gold medal in women’s trap shooting, missing just one of 100 shots to set a world record.

Her lone miss came on the 18th shot of the 25-shot final.

Zuzana Stefecekova eventually won the silver in a shootoff, topping Delphine Reau of France.

WATER POLO Vanja Udovicic scored three goals and Serbia beat the United States 11-6 in the men’s tournament.

It was the first loss of the

London Games for the Americans, who will face three-time defending champion Hungary in their last group game.

Croatia, Montenegro, Spain, Italy and Hungary also won.

SOCCER South Korea topped host Britain 5-4 in a penalty shootout to advance to the semifinals of the men’s tournament.

Ki Sung-yueng hit the winning penalty after Daniel Sturridge missed Britain’s fifth spot kick. The game was tied at 1 after regulation and extra time.

South Korea moves on to face Brazil, which beat Honduras in the quarterfinals. Japan and Mexico play in the other semifinal.

CYCLING Britain is dominating the Olympic cycling slate.

The women’s pursuit team won in a time of 3 minutes, 14.051 seconds to lower the world record they set earlier in the day.

The U.S. grabbed the silver medal, and Canada beat Australia for the bronze.

ROWING Triumphs for Britain in men’s four and the lightweight women’s double sculls sparked more scenes of jubilation at Dorney Lake and took the host country’s tally of golds to four, one more then New Zealand.

Britain finished with nine medals — four golds, two silvers and three bronzes — to surpass the country’s record total of eight from the 1908 Olympics. Those games were also held in London.

FIELD HOCKEY New Zealand beat the United States 3-2 in the women’s tournament, preventing the Americans from advancing to the medal round.

The Netherlands sealed a place in the semifinals with a 32 win over South Korea. China beat Britain 2-1 to stay in the running for the semis, Australia blanked South Africa 1-0 and Belgium drew 1-1 with Japan. Argentina also won, topping Germany 3-1.

BADMINTON The troubled women’s doubles tournament concluded with Tian Qing and Zhao Yunlei defeating Japan’s Mizuki Fujii and Reika Kakiiwa 21-10, 25-23 in the final.

Tian and Zhao are the players that inadvertently started off the problems at Wembley Arena by losing a match to a Danish team in the group stage.

That set off a wave of trouble that led to the disqualification of four teams, including the favorites from China.

Wang Xiaoli and Yu Yang made up the top-seeded team for the London Games, but they were among eight players disqualified ahead of the quarterfinals for purposefully losing group matches in order to manipulate the pairings for the knockout stages.

In women’s singles, Li Xuerui beat Wang Yihan 21-15, 2123, 21-17 in an all-Chinese final, and Saina Nehwal became only the second woman from India to medal in the Olympics when Wang Xin of China retired with an injury during their bronze playoff.

Jamaica’s Usain Bolt, left, leads in a men’s 100-meter heat during the athletics in the Olympic Stadium at the 2012 Summer Olympics, in London, Saturday.

No running from our obsession with speed

By Sam Mellinger The Kansas City Star

LONDON — Maurice Greene says it feels like an addict’s description of a cocaine high, and this is only part of why we all watch.

The most exciting nine-pointsomething seconds in sports needs no explanation. No hype. No string-music-in-the-background stories to turn the athletes into heroes. Because there is no translation that can add to the only thing left in sports that chokeholds your attention from start to finish.

There are 7 billion people on this planet, and every one of them old enough and able has run. Every one of them old enough and able has raced. Nothing else in sports is as universal as the 100-meter race at the Olympics.

This evening, about 80,000 spectators will pack a stadium and hundreds of millions more will watch on television to be as close as they can to the fastest humans alive in the fastest race we can run. World’s Fastest Man. This is the event that all of us can understand.

No matter if we grew up in a hut or a mansion, everyone understands speed. We obsess over it. Cars are built to go faster than the law allows. All the best cartoon characters go fast. We hurt ourselves because of speed. Speed kills? Sure, but speed also thrills.

Of the 7 billion people on this planet, only five have run faster than Greene. Don’t you want to know what that feels like? You know, without doing cocaine?

“There’s a feeling you can’t get to, ever,” Greene says, 13 years after his fastest race. “Especially when you win.”

Reaching peak speeds The world’s fastest men leave each foot on the track for about 0.08 seconds. That means they’re on the ground for less than four seconds of each race. The rest of the time they’re flying.

People see the legs going blurry and the arms pumping and human

NBC Sunday Olympic prime time schedule: 8 p.m.-midnight (PDT) Gymnastics: individual event gold medal finals in men’s floor exercise, men’s pommel horse, women’s vault.

Women’s diving: springboard gold medal final.

Beach volleyball: quarterfinals.

beings reaching 27 or 28 mph, and the whole thing looks magical. But there is a sweet science behind the fastest way to a gold medal, and that sweet science is force.

Jamaica’s Usain Bolt, for instance, the current 100-meter world-record holder at 9.58 seconds, does not move his legs all that fast. There are average sprinters — college kids, even high school — who move their legs just as fast. Bolt’s legs punish the track with impossible force, propelling his body forward faster and farther than any human in history so far. The legs are springs. The more bounce, the faster you move.

Greene covered 100 meters in 45½ steps. Most of today’s best sprinters use 44. Bolt needs only 40, one reason that sprinting is trending away from compact body types like Greene’s and toward taller ones with more power like Bolt’s. Once guys get behind Bolt, they don’t come back. That’s why he looks around him with 10 meters left, to see if he can slow down.

You’ll hear people say the 100 meters is an all-out sprint. They call it the dash, after all, like it’s nine-point-something seconds of max effort. But that’s not true.

That’s actually impossible.

“It’s physiology,” says Mike Young, a biomechanist and professional sports trainer. “It’s inevitable

that you’ll decelerate.”

Even at this relatively short distance, Young says the human body cannot maintain top speed from start to finish. Muscles and the nervous system typically start fatiguing at about six or seven seconds, so even the world’s best sprinters run the last three or four seconds in a slightly diminished state.

Peak speed usually comes at about 50 or 60 meters. It used to be that the world’s elite could hold their top speed for only about 10 meters.

Now, it’s 30. The effect is enormous, because not only are they peaking longer but they are decelerating for a shorter distance.

All of these things and a million more technical points can be taught and learned over time, but as Young says, you’re either born an elite sprinter or you’re born like the rest of us. Most of us, that is, in terms of body type and natural muscle.

The fun part is in what the kids call swag.

Staying fast and loose Bolt adopted a cheetah and named it “Lightning Bolt.” Greene drove around Sydney in a Ferrari with an Australian model. Justin Gatlin pounds his chest and tends to high-jump after the finish line.

You should watch these guys before races, too. They dance. They jump. They stalk. There might not be another event in the world where the competitors can’t touch each other but put out more intimidation vibe.

They say sprinters with aggressive personalities tend to do well; ones without it don’t.

Sprinters must believe in this.

Nine-point-something seconds.

There is no time for doubt.

“I was more comfortable in a packed stadium in the finals of 100 meters than I am laying at home in my bed,” Greene says. “Yeah.

That’s just where I feel like I belong.

That’s where I’m the president. I run everything and I’m in control

of everything and it’s my destiny.

It’s where I belong.”

This is why you see long stares and no smiles, just the output of testosterone between the world’s fastest men. Greene says he was “looking dead into their souls” to see which ones came ready to race.

You’d be surprised how much these guys can sense when they’re running.

They want to know who to look out for.

Maybe you love the showmanship; maybe you think it goes too far.

Either way, it’s part of the show.

Either way, it’s part of what makes the show.

These are forever races, waged on the edge of a razor. Swag isn’t just an option. It’s a necessity.

Feeling the rush Michael Johnson once told the story of a go-kart he had as a boy.

He loved that go-kart, especially when he took it down the road with the big hill. He said it felt like flying.

He said it was the only thing he could think of that compared to running faster than every other human being on the planet.

Others say it’s like sticking your head out the car window, or leaning forward at the front of a speedboat. Maybe the rest of us have to go skydiving to know what this really feels like.

They say the last 50 meters are the best. That’s when they’re going the fastest, of course, but it’s more than that. This is when they start to hear the crowd, when they start to see the flashbulbs. Like they came out of a tunnel. It looks like a stadium full of paparazzi from down there.

This is when it really does feel like magic. This is when man gets as close as possible to his greatest and simplest physical accomplishment.

Human beings can’t fly. This is as close as we can come. And who doesn’t want to watch that?

2012 Summer Olympics

THE GAMES SO FAR

After first week, defining moments aplenty OLYMPIC COMMENTARY

By Ted Anthony The Associated Press

LONDON — here has, of course, been triumph — sideburned British cyclist Bradley Wiggins and powerhouse Chinese swimmer Ye Shiwen stand out. And defeat in many forms, from the near miss of American gymnast Jordyn Wieber’s first, anguishing appearance to the Saudi judoka wiped from the Olympic landscape in just 82 seconds.

In Michael Phelps we have seen the already legendary swimmer pass milestones anew. In doubleamputee sprinter Oscar Pistorius we praise the virtue of unremitting perseverance and — admit it — silently count our blessings. In rower Hamadou Djibo Issaka of Niger, who learned his sport just three months ago, we have found an object of pure affection.

We have glimpsed Britain’s royalty, complete with credentials around their necks. We have seen celebrity’s million-dollar smiles emerging — Gabby Douglas on the beam, Jessica Ennis on the track, Missy Franklin in the pool — and watched eight disqualified Asian badminton players melt down in a burst of disruptive scandal.

For a week, anyone following the games has seen all of this in great measure.

So many stories from so many nations: stories that will be told for generations in countries you’ve never visited and probably never will.

Gabby the gymnast, encircled in the maelstrom, marveled at it all: “My name’s in the history books,” she said. It was not a boast, only simple astonishment.

In sports, it’s all about the storyline.

We hunger for the epic, scour fields of play for the iconic. And the first week of the 2012 Olympic Games has had plenty of all that.

“It’s been that lovely mix of the unexpected, the great names from overseas that have come through and those big British moments,” said London organizing committee chief Sebastian Coe. He cited the size of the crowds at track and field, which he said made him — understatedly

— “slightly taken aback.”

Those big British moments exploded on the track Saturday night.

Ennis cemented her place in Olympic history by finishing the 800 meters well ahead of her opponents and thus taking the heptathlon. She grinned ear to beautiful ear as she took a victory lap, wrapped in the British flag as thousands of her fellow citizens’ flashbulbs fired off from Olympic Stadium’s thunderous stands. Moments later, Britain cemented its night to remember with a gold from Greg Rutherford in the long jump and another from Mo Farah in the 10,000-meter run.

And surely more big moments await in the same place today with the marquee performance of the appropriately named Usain Bolt, the Jamaican sprinter and world recordholder who, with world-champion teammate Yohan Blake, is widely expected to zoom straight into Olympic history books in the 100 meters.

A 21st-century Olympics, giant spectacle though it may be, is but one big show among many. In a world of distractions — and, not incidentally,

of tape delays in the United States that begat hand-wringing and Twitter-spoiler annoyance — can the most elemental expression of human physical achievement still score a seat at the attention-span table?

“Of course times have changed, but the stories are still there,” said Teresa Edwards, a former USA basketball player and veteran of five Olympics.

“I’m watching the stories unfold, seeing the mission of what the Olympics are all about. These games are great.

I wish I was playing. I really do.”

Through it all, the Olympic flame still burns brightly. Trouble is, it’s hidden from everyone save those who have tickets to events at Olympic Stadium, where it lives encircled and — to the annoyance of many — unspottable.

And beyond sports? Let’s not forget one of the games’ most pivotal performers — the host city itself, London, one of the planet’s most storied, and at this moment in history led by a mayor named Boris who has no problem hogging the spotlight. A huge eastern swath of the city sits bathed in purple and pink and blue, the official colors of these Olympics, which festoon everything from volunteers’ shirts to street signs to miles of very cheerful security barricades.

Few logistical snags have materialized, and — fingers crossed — there have been no major security breaches. Londoners, though, seem vaguely flabbergasted that a far-flung section of their city generally ignored until now — a patch once home to giant piles of discarded refrigerators — has finally taken center stage after years of feverish construction. They’re arriving by train in droves, and, thus far, they’re proud of both their Olympians and the show their country’s putting on.

“The thing I don’t like is when you get people bad-mouthing it. I think it’s been brilliant for the country, and I feel really proud of what’s been done,” said Nicole Callaghan, 40, a National Health Service manager from Chelmsford, east of London. “The atmosphere has been

fantastic.”

The positivity hasn’t necessarily extended to Twitter. In that virtual arena, sometimes it can seem that the Olympic competition is for a gold medal in snark. One random tweeter went after British diver Tom Daley, making a crack about his late father. Police action followed. Two other athletes were kicked out of the games because of racist tweets. Other Olympians with smartphones are perhaps being more cautious with their thumbs, though Wiggins did, by his own admission, do some drunken tweeting the other night.

To some extent, that’s what happens when a signature athletic event combines with a passel of young people competing in it. Particularly when you add the attention of millions and a compressed time period during which every tidbit about an Olympian is devoured by the world (though that same world probably didn’t need to know that Ryan Lochte peed in the pool during warmups).

That, of course, coupled with the aggressive corporate sponsorship, is nothing but the sideshow. The main

events have been more vigorous to watch, more satisfying to talk about.

But still, nothing like, say, Mark Spitz and Olga Korbut in Munich in 1972, Bruce Jenner and Nadia Comaneci in Montreal in 1976, the American hockey team in Lake Placid in 1980 or Ian Thorpe in Sydney in 2000. Or Phelps in Beijing in 2008, for that matter.

Will the defining moment end up, in retrospect, being Gabby Douglas or Jess, Mo and Britain’s big Saturday night? Or is it still ahead: Will Oscar Pistorius shine? Will the team of Bolt and Blake rocket into global legend? Will someone we’ve never heard of during this first weekend of August become a household name by the second?

“In terms of a signature event, I think everyone has to decide their own,” International Olympic Committee spokesman Mark Adams said Saturday. “If I take my IOC hat off for a moment, I think many Brits would probably say from a British perspective that Bradley winning gold was probably a signature moment for us.

We hope there will be many more to come for other countries too.”

Taking stock of any athletic event halfway through is probably a doomed exercise in itself. Imagine assessing a no-hitter in the fifth inning or a Super Bowl at the half.

Some exciting things have unfolded, but the final pages of the story are, obviously, yet to be told.

So we leave you at the midpoint with images like these: Douglas soaring through the air, Pistorius speeding along on manmade legs, Ye and Phelps and “Missy the Missile” cutting through the pool. Jessica Ennis and Usain Bolt zipping across the track. Timeless visuals, distillations of what the Olympics are supposed to be about.

“The first week of the Olympics may have provided us with enough drama and sensation to last a lifetime but, for many, the real theatre of the games is only just beginning,” the London Evening Standard wrote in a weekend editorial. “Reputations have been made, and diminished. And the drama of the games is growing. Let’s make the most of them.”

NFL

Linemen lead the way into Hall of Fame

By Joe Kay The Associated Press

CANTON, Ohio — The linemen led the way as they always do, accepting their inductions into the Pro Football Hall of Fame with an abundance of humility. Curtis Martin finished the evening by supplying plenty of tears.

The last of the six players to have their bronze busts unveiled Saturday night, Martin used the big stage to recall his rough life, his mother’s pain and his life-long indifference to the game that allowed him to become famous.

“I don’t necessarily have notes, so I’m going to just bare my soul,” Martin cautioned.

“So bear with me.”

His moving story was the longest of the six and had the audience of 12,100 cheering supportively whenever one of the NFL’s greatest running backs got choked up or lost for words. It was quite a way to end a threehour induction that celebrated some of the game’s best blockers and tacklers.

Linemen Willie Roaf, Chris Doleman, Cortez Kennedy and Dermontti Dawson and 1950s cornerback Jack Butler were the first inducted, accepting their honor with simple thanks and generally short stories.

All the way through, the evening had a strong Pittsburgh flavor.

Hundreds of Steelers fans sat on the field and in the stands, waving yellow “Terrible Towels” to celebrate the city’s starring role.

Two of the new Hall of Famers played for the Steelers — Butler and Dawson. Doleman and Martin played for the University of Pittsburgh after growing up in Pennsylvania.

When it was time for Martin, a former Jets star, to finish the evening, Broadway Joe Namath couldn’t help but notice the “J-E-T-S! J-E-T-S!” chants were getting overwhelmed.

“I hear a lot of big mouths from Pittsburgh out there,” he told the crowd. “And justifiably — yes, yes!”

Martin soon had them dabbing their eyes.

He described growing up in a rough neighborhood in Pittsburgh, the son of an alcoholic father who would beat and torture his mother by setting her hair on fire or pressing burning cigarettes to her legs. His mother, Rochella, wiped tears from her eyes as he shared his story, occasionally pausing to collect himself.

“My greatest achievement in my life was healing my mother and nurturing my mother,” Martin said.

She urged him to play football to stay out of trouble.

“I played for a purpose bigger than the game because I knew that the love for the game just wasn’t in my heart,” Martin said.

Roaf was inducted first and set the tone.

Standing in front of the large crowd in an unfamiliar role — getting attention for something good — he acknowledged feeling out of place.

“You know, it’s an offensive lineman,” Roaf said. “I didn’t get singled out in front of a large audience very often, and when I did, it was usually by a referee who was singling me out by saying, ‘Holding No. 77.’

“That’s not going to happen today. And it wasn’t too often when I played.”

Roaf was one of the greatest players in Saints history, so good that he regularly made the Pro Bowl even though New Orleans had only one winning season in his nine years there.

Kennedy has something in common with Roaf. Like the offensive tackle from New Orleans, the defensive tackle from Seattle excelled on bad teams.

Kennedy grew into the game’s top defensive tackle during his 11 seasons with Seattle. Even though Seattle went 2-14 in 1992 and Kennedy got double-teamed, he was so good that he was chosen the league’s best defensive player.

“That’s bad when you go to the game and the defensive coordinator says, ‘Guys, we’re not going to win the game. Let’s don’t embarrass ourselves.’ You know we’re in for a long year then,” he said.

Line Continued from D1 Woodruff might look like a selfdescribed “little old lady,” but she is also a pretty good golfer with a short game as precise as an airport’s radar.

As she seeks a line on a putt, she might look like she is making a call to a higher power. But what she is actually doing, she explains, is analyzing each undulation by “feeling” what the green offers with her feet.

Possessing an analytical mind — she is retired from a career in accounting — Woodruff first surveys from a distance the general slope of the green.

She then stands along the line of each of her putts, chips and bunker shots, with her left shoulder pointed toward the cup. And when she takes her stance, she feels the break of the green by noting which way her body begins to lean. For longer putts and chips she performs this task multiple times, all along the presumed line.

If she leans forward slightly, she knows it is a subtle left-to-right break. If she feels gravity pulling at her with more force, she knows the

Continued from D1 The scene at the finish line was upbeat but fairly mellow — understandable given the blazing hot 90-degree weather and the fact that most participants had slept precious few hours over the past two days. Most of those at the finish area sought shelter from the heat, taking refuge under trees, patio umbrellas and the tented area of the beer garden. Some participants were even sprawled out in the shade trying to catch up on lost sleep while event loudspeakers blared music ranging from the classic (Queen’s “Another One Bites the Dust”) to the amusing (rapper Nelly’s “Shake Ya Tailfeather”) to the inexplicable (Baha Men’s “Who Let the Dogs Out?”).

After the final leg for each team rounded the corner of Northwest Crossing Drive from the backside of the high school and approached the inflated finish arch, teammates typically joined in to run or walk the final few yards and cross the line together, posing for photos afterward. Many participants showed unity by wearing matching clothing to designate their respective teams.

And some of the competitors clearly retained their sense of humor — despite spending the better part of two days sleep deprived, sweaty and crammed in the confines of the team vans when they were not running.

Toto Vo, who participated with the Portland-based Last Place Champions team, said he and his van mates occupied themselves during the wee hours of Saturday morning by blasting 1980s music on satellite radio and serenading the runners whom they passed with “Tina Turner, Journey, whatever happens to be playing.”

“It picks up the spirit of everyone in the van,” Vo noted. “When we sort of discovered that, it just completely re-energized everybody.”

Aleshire’s So Delicious squad, a mixed team based out of the Eugene/Springfield area, was primarily company-based. (So Delicious Dairy Free is a line of dairy-free products such as ice creams, al-

mond milk and yogurts manufactured by Turtle Mountain, which is based in Eugene.) The team assembled at the finish line in matching black shirts that resembled New Orleans Saints football jerseys — the quarterback Drew Brees is a product spokesman for So Delicious — complete with numbers and nicknames on the back. Some team members also wore colorful Hawaiian skirts in what Aleshire said was a nod to So Delicious coconut-based products.

Earlier in the day, for the 2.1-mile costume leg along Elk Lake, one of the So Delicious runners dressed as Brees. He was sporting the gear again at the finish, where he and his teammates huddled up before the arch and then sprinted their way in. Along the way, someone lofted a football through the air into the ready arms of a teammate ahead of him. The pass was successful.

“It was last-minute, like, how are we going to cross the finish line?”

Aleshire said of her team’s celebra-

tion. “We’re just going to huddle and say this, and this is what we’re going to do.”

Like the Drew Brees look-alike, Vo ran the costume leg for his team and was still wearing the attire at the finish line. That did take some bravery on the part of the 37-year-old Portland resident, as he was costumed as an Olympic gold medalist swimmer. Vo wore a blue Speedo, a gold medal around his neck, swim goggles and a pink swim cap during the costume leg, though he had doffed the cap by the time the Last Place Champions arrived at the finish line.

“You could argue that I was dressed appropriately,” Vo observed of his costume leg, run at about 11 a.m. on a rapidly warming Saturday.

Interestingly, the costume did not come together until after the team had arrived in Central Oregon. The Last Place Champions were brainstorming ideas when Vo somewhat jokingly asked if anyone had a Speedo. One teammate happened to have one in his car, while another had swim goggles, and a third the swim cap and the medal Vo wore.

“Everyone, and I mean everyone, did make some sort of ... acknowledgement as they drove by,” Vo said of the reactions to his ensemble out on the road.

All part of the fun at the Cascade Lakes relays.

Note: In a tight battle between two all men’s teams, a team named Project Mayhem emerged with the overall win and a new course record. Project Mayhem completed the course in 22 hours, 56 minutes, 7 seconds, conquering the 2011 course record of 23:21:07 by Rebound/Footzone. The Bend-based Sole Brothers were right behind in 23:02:52, while Rebound/Footzone was third overall and the first mixed team in 23:59:28. In the walking relay, the mixed masters team Enlightened Soles placed first in 26:14:50. Domination won the high school challenge in a new course record of 15:40:07.

Partnership Continued from D1 “It’s so awesome to see it come true,” Rupp said after taking the silver with a time of 27:30.90, 0.48 seconds behind Farah. “You dream about this day for a really long time.”

Rupp joined Billy Mills (gold in 1964) and Lewis Tewanima (silver in 1912) as the only American medalists in the event. It was the culmination of Salazar’s “Oregon Project,” aiming to put American distance runners on podiums long dominated by runners from African nations.

That was more than a decade ago, and it unfolded in the familiar way Saturday: Farah and Rupp and the Bekele brothers of Ethiopia tangled in the stretch.

Except there would be no percussive kick from the Ethiopians this time. Farah, the world champion at 5,000 meters, and Rupp, only the second non-African to break the 27-minute barrier in the 10,000, held firm.

“We thought they could out-sprint anybody in the race,” Salazar said after the race. “We weren’t going to try and win until the last 400, 200. Our speed workouts had been going well.

We didn’t care if the race was fast or slow.”

Appropriately enough (given the host country), Rupp got by with a little help from his friend. Farah and Rupp strategized before the race to work their way through patiently and then, in the final laps, consider it every man for himself.

But it was Rupp who got antsy midway through, wondering if he should make a move, when he felt a tap on his shoulder.

“Relax, mate, they’re going to come back,” he recalled Farah telling him. “We have to play it cool now and save everything for the finish.”

“I’ve been the beneficiary of our relationship,” Rupp said later. “I’ve been able to train with the

break is more severe.

“That’s all I am doing,” she says.

Woodruff makes it sounds so simple, but her method looks so strange in person.

What you will never see her do is kneel behind her ball to stare down her putting line or plumb-bobbing to get a good read — you know, like just about every other recreational golfer.

“I always thought plumb-bobbing was kind of weird,” she says. “I don’t know what in the world they’re seeing.”

Woodruff plays with a handicap index of about 14. But with a drive that goes about 150 yards, she does not have the distance off the tee to gain an advantage over any golfer.

Her short game, though, makes up for a lot.

“Since I don’t hit very far, I need to eke out some putts and some chips,” says Woodruff, who also opts not to wear golf gloves to improve her feel.

Appearance aside, does it all work?

Count Martie King as a convert.

King, a Bend resident and a member at Eagle Crest Resort in Redmond, was paired against Wood-

Britain’s Mo Farah, right, Ethiopia’s Tariku Bekele, center, and United States’ Galen Rupp, left, head for the finish line in the men’s 10,000-meter final in the Olympic Stadium at the 2012 Summer Olympics, in London, Saturday.

best distance runner in the world. Mo was kind of the missing piece.”

He could celebrate with him, too. Farah, born in Somalia but a British resident since he was 8, deemed it “the best moment of my life.” Rupp knew the feeling. But there was satisfaction, too, in adhering to the plan even as it was riddled with setbacks, like the seventh place finish in the 10,000 at 2011 world championships.

ruff two weeks ago at Crooked River Ranch in a team event between the Central Oregon clubs.

She was floored by Woodruff’s uncanny accuracy.

“I watched her sink birdies from off the fairway, make impossibly long putts, and an eagle from 130 yards out at Crooked River’s 15th hole,” King says. “It sounded hokey when she first did it, but after constantly putting the ball in or being within inches every time, I’m a believer.”

King’s reaction is not at all uncommon, notes Tom Woodruff, Carol’s husband of 39 years.

“Nobody else does this kind of thing,” says Tom Woodruff, who also does not use his wife’s technique.

“So people will just stand there and ask me, ‘What is she doing? Is she praying or what?’ It does look very strange.”

Why doesn’t every golfer adopt her method?

Though I tried, it is not so easy to copy.

“I think the reason why it is kind of weird or difficult is because people are so visual,” Carol Woodruff says.

Scott Barton, a mini-tour player

It was a long way to go in so many ways, so many details to tend to, so much pressure to shed with every stride.

“A lot of people get caught up thinking they have to do something amazing here,” Rupp said.

Then sometimes they do anyway, and they find a friend across the finish line to grab hold of, while tens of thousands of voices join in the blissful disbelief at what they’d just done.

from Bend and a Sunriver assistant professional, agrees. He’s tried a few times to feel his way around a green, with little success, and doesn’t think Woodruff’s method is for every golfer.

But having played with Woodruff, he’s impressed with her creativity.

“She’s very efficient and a really good putter,” says Barton, who has played with Woodruff several times over the past two years. “She’s found something that works for her, and more power to her.”

Woodruff, a native Oregonian, has been getting a line on her golf shots like this for 20 years — about when the former tennis instructor first learned to play golf. Then living in Southern California, Woodruff took up the game at a hilly course in Burbank.

The greens there were tough to read visually because every green was sloped subtly in one direction, she says.

“What you see is not what you got, because everything kind of ran toward town,” she recalls.

Woodruff got a tip from a former LPGA Tour pro to feel the green, rather than simply stare down the

line.

So it began.

Golfing in her sneakers (she says her method of lining up shots does not work as well in conventional golf shoes), Woodruff tracks every nook and cranny on her line.

She is quick to point out that she did not invent the technique, but “I’m probably a little extreme.”

“Most people who do this probably walk sideways (along the line of their shot),” she says as she demonstrates on the Meadow practice green. “You wouldn’t even notice they were doing it.”

Woodruff has become a student of golf, quoting short-game gurus and the like.

And she is not afraid to critique the putting styles of even the best golfers in the world, saying they tend to “jam” the ball into the hole rather than play the natural break.

Still, she’s not expecting others to pick up on her routine.

“It works for me,” Woodruff says.

After watching her analyze the Sunriver practice green, maybe I should try something different, too.

GOLF ROUNDUP

MOTOR SPORTS ROUNDUP

Montoya takes pole at Pocono

Tony Dejak / The Associated Press

Jim Furyk tees off on the third hole during the third round of the Bridgestone Invitational at Firestone Country Club, Saturday, in Akron, Ohio.

Furyk takes 1-shot lead into final round The Associated Press AKRON, Ohio — A steady diet of pars kept Jim Furyk in the lead Saturday in the Bridgestone Invitational, but not by much.

Furyk made his only birdie on the par-5 second hole and had to rely on a couple of strong par saves on the back nine at Firestone for an even-par 70, giving him a one-shot lead over Louis Oosthuizen going into the final round of this World Golf Championship.

Furyk began the week with a 63, and he’s not sure he didn’t hit the ball better in the third round. Under three days of sun-baked conditions, the greens lost their moisture and enough wind arrived to make players think more than they would prefer.

Oosthuizen had to scramble for pars at the start before he settled into his round of 68.

Keegan Bradley, who can move into the top eight in the Ryder Cup standings with a runner-up finish, had a 67 and was four shots behind. He will be in the final group Sunday, when the tee times are pushed forward to avoid thunderstorms forecast throughout the day.

And that could change everything.

Instead of approach shots that spun back, even a wedge was taking a big bounce forward, making it tough to get it close. Furyk wasted the few opportunities he had early in the round, missing from 7 feet for birdie on the third and from 6 right behind the hole on the par-3 fifth hole.

“We had a little bit more wind going on, the greens firmed up a little bit, and I just felt like it was a lot harder to get iron shots close to the pin,” Furyk said.

Furyk led by five strokes on the front nine, though Firestone didn’t yield many birdies.

He was at 11-under 199.

Rory McIlroy, with an outside chance of returning to No. 1 in the world if he were to win, had a 67 and joined Steve Stricker (68) at 6-under 204, five shots behind. Stricker looked to be closing in on the lead until he hooked his tee shot on the par-5 16th into the base of a pine tree and had to take a penalty shot to be able to make a swing.

Top-ranked Luke Donald also was chipping away, as he often does, until he hit a tree on the last for a bogey for a 71, falling seven shots back.

Tiger Woods broke par for the first time all week, though his 68 left him 11 shots behind on a Firestone course where he has won seven times. Woods is taking an optimistic view out of an otherwise drab week — at least he feels as though he’s hitting the ball well.

“Hitting fairways and greens, you’re shooting high rounds of 2-under par and 3under par, that’s a good sign,” he said. “Those are your worst scores you can possibly shoot that day. It’s not good when you’re shooting those scores and you get absolutely everything out of it.”

The firm conditions and stronger wind let to a few interesting moments.

Masters champion Bubba Watson was pumped up over

being able to go at the 648yard 16th hole with an 8-iron for his second shot. Oosthuizen crushed his tee shot so far that he hit 6-iron. Then again, the green was so firm that no one could putt for eagle. Furyk tried to lay up with a 6-iron that would give him a full shot into the green, and was stunned to see it travel 250 yards. He was so close — 68 yards to the pin — that he no chance of staying on the green because he couldn’t hit it hard enough to get spin.

And then there was Rafa Cabrera-Bello, who played in the final group Saturday and started two shots behind.

That didn’t last long.

He hit a bunker shot fat and just got onto the thick collar around the first green. For his fourth shot, he shanked a chip that went at a 90-degree angle away from the flag. His fifth shot with the putter came up 12 feet short and he did well to make double bogey. On the next tee shot, he hit a duck hook into the gallery. On the ninth hole, his drive landed square behind a tree, forcing him to pitch to the 10th fairway, only it didn’t go far enough, and his wedge clipped yet another tree.

The Spaniard wound up with a 77.

Worse yet, his plastic bottle of water crinkled at the top of Furyk’s back swing on the par-3 seventh. Furyk had not missed a shot to that point, and this one sailed well right of the green. He glared in the direction of the bottle, figured it was a harmless mistake and holed a 15-foot putt for par.

Those were the putts that kept Furyk in the game.

Lee Westwood would have taken some of those pars. He played alongside Rickie Fowler on Friday when the American shot 80. Westwood got off to about the same start and finished with an 81. He declined comment after his round, but had some fun with Fowler on Twitter.

Also on Saturday: David Peoples shoots 62, leads 3M Championship David Peoples matched his career best with a 10-under 62 to take a three-stroke lead in the Champions Tour’s 3M Championship in Blaine, Minn. Peoples, who twice shot 62 on the PGA Tour, made six straight birdies at the TPC Twin Cities to get to 10 under through seven holes, also birdied Nos. 10, 12 and 13 and closed with an 8-foot birdie putt on No. 18. Winless on the 50-and-over tour, he had a 14under 130 total.

Henry leads Reno-Tahoe Open RENO, Nev. — J.J. Henry had an eagle for the third straight day and scored 14 points to take the third-round lead in the Reno-Tahoe Open.

John Daly and Justin Leonard were among more than a dozen players within striking distance in the PGA Tour’s first modified Stableford scoring system event since 2006.

Henry had 36 points overall, three more than second-round leader Alexandre Rocha in the format that awards eight points for double eagle, five for eagle, two for birdie and none for par.

Players are docked a point for bogey and three points for anything worse.

The Associated Press LONG POND, Pa. — Juan Pablo Montoya’s contribution to the NASCAR highlight reel so far this season was his crash into a jet dryer in the season-opening Daytona 500.

Montoya finally had a bright spot that didn’t involve explosions and raging fuel fires.

He turned a lap of 176.043 mph Saturday to win the pole at Pocono Raceway. The winless Montoya won his first pole since April 2011 in Richmond, Va. He hasn’t won a race since Aug. 8, 2010 at Watkins Glen.

The pole was a needed lift for Montoya and his No. 42 Earnhardt Ganassi Racing team. He’s 21st in the standings and has yet to drive to a top-five finish. He only has two top 10s and has continued a string of mediocre seasons since qualifying for the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship in 2009.

Montoya admitted he was “shocked” he beat out Pocono qualifying stars such as Denny Hamlin, Joey Logano and Kasey Kahne to lead the field in Sunday’s 400- mile race.

“We know we’re working in the right direction, we know we’re working hard, we feel the cars are getting a little better,” Montoya said, “but to go out there and get a pole ...

I just went through the hauler and all the engineers, they’re all happy and laughing. I’m used to long faces, a lot of long

faces, a lot of stressful faces.

We needed something like this as a company. This is big for us.”

Hamlin turned a lap of 175.795 and qualified second.

It’s his 12th top-10 start in 14 career Pocono races.

Paul Menard, Kahne and Marcos Ambrose round out the top five.

Points leader Dale Earnhardt Jr. starts eighth.

Montoya joined NASCAR in 2007 after a successful career in open wheel that included an Indianapolis 500 victory and a Monaco Grand Prix win. His 2009 season where he finished eighth in the standings turned out to be a one-year blip instead of a breakthrough into regular championship contention.

His team has undergone massive turnover — including new crew chief Chris Heroy

— yet it didn’t bring the No. 42 Chevrolet any better results.

He hasn’t finished better than 21st in any of his last three races and has finished better than 14th only once in his last 11 races.

“I think we’re quite a ways away from as a company where we want to get to,” he said. “We want to be able to come every weekend knowing you can beat a Hendrick, beat a Gibbs. That’s our goal.”

Montoya knows he was as unlikely as any driver to win the pole.

“If you told me this morning I was going to be sitting on the pole, I’d say, ‘pfff,’” he said.

“I thought we were going to be OK. I thought we’d be 12-15.

And we’re sitting on the pole.”

Also on Saturday: Sadler redeems himself with Nationwide win at Iowa NEWTON, Iowa — El-

liott Sadler rebounded from the disappointment of his jumped-restart penalty last week in Indianapolis to win the NASCAR Nationwide Race at Iowa Speedway.

Sadler denied Ricky Stenhouse Jr. a fourth straight victory at Iowa Speedway, and increased his lead in the series standings to 18 points over Austin Dillon. Sadler won the pole with a trackrecord qualifying speed of 135.141 mph and was near or at the front of the pack the entire race.

Johnson tops Pro Stock qualifying KENT, Wash. — Pro Stock points leader Allen Johnson topped Pro Stock qualifying for the sixth straight event, taking the No. 1 position in the NHRA Northwest Nationals at Pacific Raceways.

Spencer Massey led the Top Fuel field, and teammate Ron Capps topped the Funny Car class.

Power powers way to pole at Mid-Ohio IndyCar LEXINGTON, Ohio — Will Power captured his third pole of the season, holding off Dario Franchitti and rookie Simon Pagenaud to take the top qualifying spot for the IndyCar race at Mid-Ohio.

Power, ranked as the best in the series on road courses, was timed in 1 minute, 5.6474 seconds around the 2.25mile, 13-turn layout nestled in farmland between Cleveland and Columbus.

Earnhardt on top of NASCAR standings and loving it

By Dan Gelston AP Sports Writer

LONG POND, Pa. — Dale Earnhardt Jr. is back on top in NASCAR in something other than a most popular driver poll.

Earnhardt has soared into the Sprint Cup points lead for the first time in nearly eight years and he might finally give his legion of fans a reason to cheer him for more than just his last name.

He’s switched teams. Endured a massive winless streak. Listened to those who said he would never live up to the championship standards set by the rest of his Hendrick Motorsports teammates.

Yet, here is Earnhardt, parked in first place, his first Cup title at last on the horizon.

“I do feel a little bit vindicated to the people that considered I wouldn’t ever be competitive again,” he said Friday at Pocono Raceway.

Earnhardt is about as competitive as he’s ever been in his five seasons with NASCAR’s premier organization, snapping a 143-race winless streak in June at Michigan, and taking three fourth-place finishes in his last four races heading into Sunday’s 400-mile race at Pocono.

He has found the winning formula in the No. 88 Chevrolet with crew chief Steve Letarte, and rediscovered a dash of confidence and bravado needed to sustain a championship drive at this level. He

just made it that much better.

Maybe we’ll roll it over next year if he doesn’t win.”

Earnhardt’s put the sport on notice that this is the year he can be a championship threat all the way to the end.

“I think his confidence is up. I think he believes in his team and Steve,” four-time champion and teammate Jeff Gordon said. “Their personalities and confidence in one another was built. It’s a great team over there and it’s a great facility. They really know how to step things up.”

Earnhardt’s 143 races between wins was the sixthlongest streak in Sprint Cup history. Most drivers may not have been as fortunate to keep their jobs.

But not every driver has the cache of Earnhardt.

Winning it all would wipe away all the lean seasons for Earnhardt loyalists.

“The closer we get to the Chase,” Earnhardt said, “the more real the opportunity seems.”

Frightening reality

W

hat would you think about a newspaper editor’s warning about published stories that went something like this?

“The responses in these stories have been submitted for approval or editing prior to publication by the individuals who responded.”

Or would you prefer this?

“Officials named in this story would not agree to respond to this story unless they were allowed to edit their response prior to publication. That we will not do.”

As Orwellian as that sounds, it is, according to an excellent recent story by New York Times reporter Jeremy W. Peters, an expanding and frightening reality in the world of political and government coverage.

Peters wrote: “The quotations come back redacted, stripped of colorful metaphors, colloquial language and anything even mildly provocative.

“They are sent from the Obama headquarters in Chicago to reporters who have interviewed campaign officials under one major condition: the press office has veto power over what statements can be quoted and attributed by name.”

Peters reports that this practice is becoming more and more commonplace among government officials, agencies and politicians, and has a bipartisan flair. “… Romney advisers almost always require that reporters ask them for the green light on anything from a conversation that they would like to include in an article.”

Why? “Now, with a millisecond Twitter news cycle and an unforgiving, gaffeobsessed media culture, politicians and their advisers,” Peters wrote, “are routinely demanding that reporters allow them final editing power over any published quotations.”

The penalty for non-acquiescence is the most severe in the high stakes, brutally competitive world of Washington journalism — loss of access to key players.

To the many readers who have written to ask if this is how The Bulletin reporters conduct themselves, the answer is an emphatic no.

It’s important to understand if these new rules apply only to comments made on the record, which Peters seem to suggest.

But make no mistake about it: a loss of access, even given these nauseating terms, means a loss of information and perspective for readers, particularly if the most poignant remarks can be cleaned up for public consumption.

Peters’ assessment of the reasons for this — the world of gaffe-ridden reports instantly reported on Twitter, blogs or Facebook — is likely right.

But the public’s suspicion of an alliance of convenience between press and politicians, which is devastating to credibility, is not new.

Any number of former advisers to presidents, senators and governors, etc., appears on television as analysts and as print columnists or commentators.

These are the same people who in past public lives insisted on the standards that are now under fire.

And there were times when journalists didn’t need to be censored.

They did it to themselves.

It is now widely acknowledged that President Kennedy was a serial philanderer, which the press corps knew about, but did not report.

That may have been the right judgment for a different time, or even the right judgment now, but there’s no question that it was based on a cozier relationship between reporters and their news subjects.

For better or worse, those days are gone.

A columnist last week — Washington and Lee University journalism professor Edward Wasserman — made a really smart observation.

It is one thing for a reporter to go back and review his observations with an expert source to gain clarity.

It’s quite another to let the source clean up accurate but ignorant, insulting and damaging remarks.

In that case, I’d rather affix the editor’s warning to the top of the story than pull the wool over readers’ eyes.

Friends and family of Sabrina Seelig, a young woman who died after treatment at a New York hospital, gathered during hearings May 10 at the Brooklyn Civil Courthouse.

DEATH? • Sabrina Seelig, 22, died after seeking help at a hospital. Did hospital staff do everything possible to save her life?

By Anemona Hartocollis • The New York Times

S

abrina Seelig seemed too young to die.

Just 22, she lived in a railroad flat in Bushwick, a part of Brooklyn that at the time was cheap but not yet hip, with a roommate who worked at the Museum of Modern Art. Seelig worked as a waitress in bistros on the Lower East Side while writing a novel and studying classics at Hunter College.

One night she stayed up all night translating a Latin text into English for a college paper. At 4 a.m. she emailed her professor saying she would deliver it in person. During the all-nighter, Seelig took Ephedra, a stimulant diet drug that had been banned by the Food and Drug Administration three years earlier, and had a few beers. When she felt sick, she called Poison Control for help, and spoke very clearly, a recording of the call shows.

She arrived by ambulance at Wyckoff Heights Medical Center, long regarded as one of the most troubled hospitals in the

city, at 11:05 a.m. on May 30, 2007, conscious and alert but complaining of vomiting and dizziness.

She was given a sedative that put her into a deep sleep, and her wrists were tied to the bed. None of her friends or relatives knew that she was there, and medical records show no measurements of her vital signs for hours that afternoon, suggesting that she was left unattended by the medical staff.

By that evening she was brain damaged and on life

support, with little hope of recovering. She died six days later.

Seelig’s case brings to mind the death of Libby Zion, an 18year-old Bennington College freshman who died in 1984, eight hours after being admitted to New York Hospital, where she had been sedated and tied down. Zion’s death led to changes in the training of young doctors across the country, in a campaign led by her father, Sidney Zion, a wellconnected New York writer.

But Seelig’s grieving parents,

Victor J. Blue / For The New York Times

Sabrina Seelig was treated in May 2007 at Wyckoff Heights Medical Center, long regarded as one of the most troubled hospitals in the city of Brooklyn, N.Y.

Warren Seelig and Sherrie Gibson, carried on their crusade in private — and without the satisfaction of knowing that her death had changed the way medicine was practiced.

How could a 22-year-old woman die so abruptly? How could a youthful misstep have had such disastrous consequences? Those are questions the Seeligs still struggle to answer after five years. Because their daughter was alone at the hospital, they are left with only a sketchy record of her treatment and no way to know what she felt during her final hours. Her mother and her estate sued Wyckoff Hospital and staff members who had treated Seelig for malpractice, but they lost after an emotionally grueling four-week trial in the spring.

E Driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s licenses not OK for those here illegally

G

The Bulletin AN INDEPENDENT NEWSPAPER

B M C G B

J C R C

Chairwoman Publisher Editor-in-Chief Editor of Editorials

ov. John Kitzhaber wants changes in Oregonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s license laws to enable more â&#x20AC;&#x153;people to come out of the shadows and contribute to our stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s eco-

nomic recovery.â&#x20AC;?

A work group is meeting to come up with a proposal that Kitzhaber hopes public safety officials will support.

For now, the work group is behind closed doors, as Salemâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Statesman Journal reported. But the governorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s statements suggest the group is considering allowing people to get a form of an Oregon driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s license without being able to prove they have a right to be here.

Bad idea. That is not to say there are no problems. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Too many Oregonians are traveling from home to work, or school, or church, in risk of violating the law,â&#x20AC;? Kitzhaber wrote in a May letter to an immigration rally. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They are forced to choose between this risk and providing for their families.â&#x20AC;?

Of course, another choice they made â&#x20AC;&#x201D;unless they are too young â&#x20AC;&#x201D; is to be in Oregon illegally. There are other issues that can clearly be bad for Oregonians.

No driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s license means no insurance. No driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s license likely means less familiarity with the rules of the road. No driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s license also can make it much more difficult for law enforcement to swiftly determine a personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s identity.

The federal government cracked down on the identification needed to get on a plane or visit a federal office building after 9/11. The 9/11 Commission report spelled out why. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For terrorists, travel documents are weapons,â&#x20AC;? the report said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All

but one of the hijackers acquired some form of U.S. identification document, some by fraud. Acquisition of these forms of identification would have assisted them in boarding commercial flights, renting cars, and other necessary activities.â&#x20AC;?

Federal law does allow states to issue other IDs that are clearly marked as not legal for use for federal purposes. Washington and New Mexico allow a form of driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s licenses without proof of legal presence. Utah has driving privilege cards.

That doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean Oregon also needs to join in and hand out benefits to those in the state illegally.

The root problem is the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s failure to support comprehensive immigration reform. Remember in 2007 when that pair of unlikely allies â&#x20AC;&#x201D; President Bush and Sen. Ted Kennedy â&#x20AC;&#x201D; became allies on immigration reform? Their proposal had the right components. Strict enforcement of laws against hiring illegals, a â&#x20AC;&#x153;guest workerâ&#x20AC;? program and a program by which people who are living in the United States could become legal.

But failure of Congress to enact immigration reform is no excuse for Oregon to create loopholes for people breaking the law.

We are not under a delusion that strict driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s license requirements make many illegal aliens pack up and leave. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also not a certainty that Oregon becomes safer by approving licenses for people who are here illegally.

Sisters makes sound request on paying debt

T

he Sisters School District has made a reasonable request in asking the state for an additional three years to pay off a debt.

The district has been making payments since 2007, bringing the $1.2 million bill down to $600,000.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s now scheduled to repay the balance in six years, an outlay of $100,000 per year. Stretching to nine years would ease the burden on the district, which is struggling like most districts in these tough economic times.

The debt comes from inflated student numbers the Sisters schools reported years ago when it included students enrolled in a Christian school as part of its home-school program. In 2006, an audit reported the school had received $1.2 million more than it should given its student population numbers.

School districts in Oregon re-

ceive funds from the state based on the number of students enrolled, and students who participate in the districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home-school program are included in the formula. Students who were actually attending Sonrise Christian School between 1999 and 2004 were incorrectly listed as part of the districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home-school program.

Superintendent Jim Golden said the district is asking for a threeyear extension rather than seeking forgiveness of the debt, which the board had discussed in May, because it seemed more likely to be successful. He said the state has said it would consider the request, and the district is waiting for a decision.

The state has acted properly in requiring the district to repay the funds, but the tough economy has changed the equation, and an extension is a good choice.

Business and a Romney presidency

By Richard Belzer ne of the hot political issues of the current presidential campaign is what Mitt Romney did or did not do as founder and CEO of Bain Capital. Personally, I find this somewhat confounding and a clear indication that the American public has little understanding of what cor- IN MY porations are all about.

To begin with, large corporations have a singular goal: to increase shareholder value. In order to accomplish this, the focus is on increasing earnings (otherwise known as profits), as a companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s value is generally based upon a multiple of its earnings as well as projections of its future earnings.

Fundamentally, there are three ways to increase earnings: 1) grow total sales (revenue); 2) decrease the cost of making products; and 3) decrease overhead and other expenses such as research and development, marketing, facilities overhead, etc.

It needs to be clearly understood that U.S. corporations have no obligation to do what is in the best interests of our country or its citizens. To repeat, the goal is to increase shareholder value.

So letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s be clear. Many corporations have found that they can decrease their cost of manufacturing by moving some of their operations offshore and hiring lower-cost labor than that which they find in the U.S. Such a move can increase earnings significantly.

Some corporations have found that they can save money by dumping untreated sewage into our rivers and streams. Others have discovered that costs can be reduced by having far fewer mine safety inspections. Cutting corners on airplane

O

inspections can increase earnings for an airline. Often, corporations have found that the cost of legal settlements with individuals who are damaged by such actions are far less costly than the what they have saved in expenses over a number of years.

It comes down to a financial decision â&#x20AC;&#x201D; what is the best approach VIEW to maximize shareholder value?

The picture I am painting is of unfettered capitalism. This is what transpires when corporations are completely free to act solely in the best interests of their shareholders.

Fortunately, there is a counterbalance that (somewhat) protects us, the citizens of the U.S. That counterbalance is our government, which passes regulations (the job of Congress) and enforces these regulations (the job of the president). But this only serves to protect us if Congress provides, in addition to protective regulations, the funding so that they can be effectively enforced.

How well do you think all this worked during the banking collapse of 2007 that led us into the recession that has maintained unemployment above 8 percent? How effective were the minimal inspections conducted on the Deepwater Horizon before it exploded and dumped millions of barrels of oil into the Gulf of Mexico?

Back to Mitt Romney. Given the success of Bain Capital, it is clear that he did his job well. Irrespective of whether he was responsible for shipping jobs overseas, he exercised his fiduciary responsibility to his shareholders, increasing the value of the corporations in which Bain Capital invested as well as the value of Bain Capital itself.

Now that he is a presidential can-

Given the success of Bain Capital, it is clear that he did his job well. Irrespective of whether he was responsible for shipping jobs overseas, he exercised his fiduciary responsibility to his shareholders, increasing the value of the corporations in which Bain Capital invested as well as the value of Bain Capital itself. didate, however, we must ask a different question. How well did his experience at Bain Capital prepare him for being the chief executive that enforces government regulations and ensures that we do not move toward unfettered capitalism? I can see a Romney presidency increasing shareholder value in a large number of U.S. corporations, but would this really translate into more American jobs? And what about our environment? Do we limit funding for enforcement in an effort to increase shareholder profits?

Limiting government regulation and its enforcement is already a keystone of the Republican approach to deficit reduction. In Mitt Romney, they have the ideal candidate to move us toward a version of capitalism that is virtually unknown in the industrialized world. Before we vote in November, we need to ask ourselves how well this will work for the average American citizen. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Richard Belzer lives in Bend.

Smart ways to keep the brake on health care costs

By Peter Orszag Bloomberg News

T

he rising cost of health care in the United States has been slowing over the past few years, driven both by weakness in the general economy and by some changes in the way medical services are provided. The crucial question now is, how can we make sure that progress continues?

Surprisingly, for all the recent talk about constraining cost growth, few specific proposals have been made.

Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why the Center for American Progress should be commended for gathering a group of health care experts and putting forward more than 10 specific proposals. (Disclosure: I was part of the group, which included a broad array of doctors and other medical practitioners and academics.)

The proposals, which were published

in the New England Journal of Medicine, aim to reduce costs wherever possible by curtailing care that is unnecessary and reducing the prices of procedures people need.

First, consider how drastic the recent deceleration in health care costs has been. A common way to evaluate the growth in spending for Medicare is to compare the increase per beneficiary to income per capita. Over the past 30 years, this excess cost growth for Medicare has averaged about 2 percent a year. The goal of many policy proposals, including provisions in the 2010 Affordable Care Act, is to reduce the future excess cost growth to about 1 percent annually.

Over the past year, though, excess cost growth has been much less than the target of 1 percent. According to the most recent figures from the Congressional Budget Office, total Medi-

care spending this year through June rose 4 percent from the previous year.

Meanwhile, the number of Medicare beneficiaries rose by almost 4 percent, too, and income per capita rose by about 3 percent.

So how can the recent progress be sustained? The proposals put forward by the experts assembled by the Center for American Progress include multiple steps to eliminate both artificially high prices and unnecessary procedures. For example, rather than have Medicare set prices for lab tests and medical devices, we should put all such purchases out for competitive bidding. Another suggestion is to require that all health care prices be fully transparent to consumers.

Other proposals are aimed at the intensity of medical care rather than its price. The faster we can move away from fee-for-service payments, which

encourage additional care even if it isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t helpful, the more value we can get from our health-care system. The CAP proposals set a 10-year goal of making at least 75 percent of payments on some basis other than fee-for-service.

One of the most promising alternatives involves bundling â&#x20AC;&#x201D; paying a fixed amount for the whole collection of services typically needed to treat a particular condition.

What is perhaps most surprising about the CAP proposals, given the traditional political alignments on the issue, is that they also include reform for the medical malpractice system.

Rather than impose an arbitrary cap on damages, the group proposes a safe harbor for physicians who adhere to practices that have been clinically shown to be beneficial.

The CAP proposals thus wisely recognize that there is no single strat-

egy to continue the recent progress in slowing the growth in health care costs. In contrast, the Republican budget plan put forward by Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin seems based on a belief that all thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s needed is to shift risks: from Medicare to beneficiaries through a premium-support program, and from the federal government to state governments by turning Medicaid into block grants. I wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t bet on these steps solving the problem. The only certain outcome from them is the shifting of risk onto state governments and individuals.

Building a more valuable health care system requires many more improvements â&#x20AC;&#x201D; which is why the CAP approach is more auspicious. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Peter Orszag is vice chairman of corporate and investment banking at Citigroup and a former director of the Office of Management and Budget.

100 days is a long time to wait T

he presidential election is about 100 days away. President Obama and Mitt Romney are roughly even in the various polls, with Obama holding slight leads in the key swing states.

A lot can happen in 100 days or thereabouts. Napoleon, for example, went from ignominious exile at Elba to triumph in Paris to utter defeat at Waterloo. South Korea was lost and then saved by Gen. Matthew Ridgway in about 100 days of winter in 1950 and early 1951. In 1948, supposedly doomed incumbent President Harry Truman went from 17 points down in the polls to a victory margin of 4.5 percentage points on Election Day What could change the pulse of the election in the next three months? Strangely enough, it may not be the economy. It is now boringly predictable: flat and not likely either to rebound or plunge much further before the November election. The new normal is 42 consecutive months of 8 percent-plus unemployment. The dismal economy is expected to slog along at less than a 2 percent rate of annual GDP growth each quarter.

The public shrugs at four straight $1 trillion-plus annual deficits. Balanced budgets belong to the last century. Housing is still depressed after four years. Home equity and interest on passbook accounts are

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON fossilized concepts. Not even the administration is arguing that the $831 billion in stimulus borrowing, Obamacare, a $5 trillion increase in the national debt, or three years of near-zero interest rates have primed the economic pump.

Yet Obama has not yet suffered all that much politically for the hard times, at least not in the manner once accorded incumbents Herbert Hoover, Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter or George H.W. Bush. Instead, Obama argues mostly that the nightmare could have been worse.

Or that four years ago George W. Bush left him a mess. Or that a Republican majority in the House of Representatives beginning in 2011 derailed his successful agenda after two years of Democratic majorities.

Or that Romney is the sort of rich financial pirate who got us into the mess of 2008.

Romney counters that Obama’s neo-socialist policies turned a natural recovery into a near-permanent recession. Expanded government, more regulations, constant talk of higher taxes, astronomical debt, a federal takeover of health care, insider subsidies to failing companies,

and nonstop demonization of successful businesspeople stalled the economy and scared the daylights out of job-creating entrepreneurs.

The public is about evenly split between the two arguments. About half seem to want even more big government and public assistance; the other half want far less of Washington. Romney sounds more competent in matters of the economy, but also stiff. Obama can still soar with his hope-and-change rhetoric, but the now-canned content increasingly ends up all too predictable if not wearisome.

Everyone still insists the election will hinge on the economy and voter turnout, but at the same time there is no national consensus yet on whether Obama should be blamed for making bad things worse — or on whether Romney could do any better.

Barring some atrocious gaffe, personal scandal or miserable debate performance, what else might break things open in the next 100 days?

Here are a few scenarios. In the next three months, an Iranian detonation of an atomic bomb, or a preemptive Israeli (or American) strike at Iran, could change the entire complexion of the election. If the threat is diffused, Obama reminds us that he really is the guy who got bin Laden. If things blow up, then

he proves another bumbling Jimmy Carter who fiddled while the Middle East burned.

Vladimir Putin, Hugo Chavez or Kim Jong-un might time a new round of adventurism to predate the November election.

If a regional war breaks out over Syria, or Israel intervenes next door, or dangerous weapons fall into the hands of terrorists, Obama will be caricatured as a naif in matters of the Middle East. If Assad leaves quietly and reformists take over, then Obama appears steady.

A major al-Qaida strike, heaven forbid, on the homeland would remind us of all the crazy talk about trying Khalid Sheik Mohammed in a civilian court, the silly politically correct euphemisms like “overseas contingency operations” and “mancaused disasters,” and promises of shutting down Guantanamo within a year of Obama’s inauguration.

Continued quiet, however, will recall Obama’s wise continuation of the Bush-era predator drone program, renditions, tribunals and preventative detentions.

An election that is supposed to turn on the economy may not. And in the next 100 days, an inwardlooking, divided electorate may be forced to look abroad.

Alarming trajectory

Sacred promises

This brings me to a soon-to-be released study by the incorrigible pragmatists at Third Way, the centrist Democratic think tank. The study takes a familiar refrain and

Some of the entitlement bloat comes from the addition of new programs — notably the prescription drug benefit espoused by our second boomer president, George W. Bush,

and the Affordable Care Act, though at least that law sets in motion offsetting measures aimed at containing the soaring cost of health care.

Some of the growth is built into formulas that increase benefits faster than inflation or GDP. And a lot of it is us: boomers, aging into Social Security and Medicare. “We’ve reached the point where our working-age population over the next 30 years grows by one-fifth, and our elderly population grows 100 percent,” said Jim Kessler, the senior vice president for policy at Third Way. Indignant readers are already revving up to tell me that Social Security and Medicare are sacred promises, that cutting them would be stone-hearted Republicanism.

AARP, the lobby for people we used to call senior citizens until we realized that meant us, got hammered by the left earlier this year when its CEO dared to convene a meeting of Washington insiders to even discuss the subject. No wonder AARP shies away from supporting any entitlement reform.

But the traditional liberal alternatives — raise taxes on the wellto-do, cut military spending — are not nearly enough by themselves.

The arithmetic simply doesn’t work, unless we face the fact that entitlements are a bargain we can’t afford to keep, not in full.

The largest generation So the question is not whether entitlements have to be brought under control, but how. The Republican plan espoused by Mitt Romney and his fiscal lodestar, Paul Ryan, would cut the cost of entitlements largely by moving toward privatization: personal investment accounts for Social Security, vouchers for Medicare.

And it’s not at all clear that Republicans would assign any of the savings to investing in our future.

At least the Republicans have a plan. The Democrats generally re-

A

coil from the subject of entitlements.

Centrists like those at Third Way and the bipartisan authors of the Simpson-Bowles report endorse a menu of incremental cuts and reforms that would bring down costs without hitting the needy or snatching away the security blanket from those nearing retirement.

They include gradually raising the retirement age to compensate for the fact that we now live, on average, 14 years longer than when FDR signed Social Security into law. They include obliging those of us who can really afford it to pay a larger share.

They also include technical fixes like aligning the automatic cost-of-living formula with reality.

To curtail the raging inflation of health costs, the government could better use its market clout to hasten electronic record-keeping, replace the fee-for-service model, reform medical malpractice laws and promote living wills. (A quarter of health care spending comes in the last year of life.) But you won’t hear much of that on the campaign trail.

Fellow boomers, we have done more than our share to make this mess. It’s not our fault that there are a lot of us, but we have resisted any move to fix the system. We should make a sensible reform of entitlements our generation’s cause. We should stiffen the spines of our politicians and push lobby groups like AARP to climb out of the bunker and lead. (And, by the way, we should resist the boomer temptation to take every cent of the reform from the pockets of our kids.)

We should keep the heat on Congress and the president to double down on the cost-saving provisions in Obamacare.

We may not be the greatest generation, but we are the largest — and we vote. We throw our weight around. What if we threw some of it in the right direction?

— Victor Davis Hanson is a classicist and historian at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University.

B y Bill Keller

presents it with a graphic wallop.

Though it was intended as a wakeup call, not an indictment of a generation, it can be read as both.

The authors examined two categories of federal spending over the past 50 years, representing two of government’s fundamental missions.

One was “investments,” which includes maintaining our national infrastructure, keeping our military equipped, helping assure that our workforce is educated to a high standard, and underwriting the kind of basic scientific research that is too risky or long-term to attract private money.

The other category was “entitlements,” a catchall word for the safety-net programs that provide a measure of economic stability for the aging and poor: Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, etc.

You will not be surprised to hear that the red line tracking entitlements goes up while the blue line reflecting investments goes down.

What is alarming is the trajectory.

In 1962, we were laying down the foundations of prosperity. About 32 cents of every federal dollar, excluding interest payments, was spent on investments, only 14 percent on entitlements. In the mid-70s the lines crossed. Today we spend less than 15 cents on investment and 46 cents on entitlements. And it gets worse.

By 2030, when the last of us boomers have surged onto the Social Security rolls, entitlements will consume 61 cents of every federal dollar, starving our already neglected investment and leaving us, in the words of the study, with “a less-skilled workforce, lower rates of job creation, and an infrastructure unfit for a 21st century economy.”

Dullest campaign season ever few weeks ago, Peggy Noonan wrote a column in The Wall Street Journal that perfectly captures my attitude toward this presidential campaign: It’s incredibly consequential and incredibly boring all at the same time.

Since then, I’ve come up with a number of reasons for why it is so dull.

First, intellectual stagnation. This race is the latest iteration of the same debate we’ve been having since 1964. Mitt Romney is calling President Barack Obama a big-government liberal who wants to crush business. Obama is calling Romney a corporate tool who wants to take away grandma’s health care.

American politics went through tremendous changes between 1900 and 1936, and then again between 1940 and 1976. But our big government/small government debate is back where it was a generation ago. Candidates don’t even have to rehearse the arguments anymore; they just find the gaffes that will help them pin their opponent to the standard boogeyman cliches.

Second, lack of any hint of intellectual innovation. Candidates used to start their campaigns by giving serious policy addresses at universities and think tanks to lay out their distinct philosophies. Bill Clinton was a New Democrat. George W. Bush was a Compassionate Conservative.

But the ideological climate has ossified. Candidates know that they’d be punished for saying something unexpected — by the rich, elderly donors and by the hyperorthodox talk-show hosts.

Third, increased focus on the uninformed. Four years ago, Obama gave a sophisticated major speech on race.

Romney did one on religion. This year, the candidates do not feel compelled to give major speeches. The prevailing view is that anybody who would pay attention to such a speech is already committed to a candidate. It’s more efficient to focus on the undecided voters, who don’t really follow politics or the news.

Fourth, lack of serious policy proposals. Has there ever been a campaign with so few major plans on the table? Obama’s proposals are small and medium-size retreads, while Romney has run the closest thing to a policy-free race as any candidate in my lifetime.

Fifth, negative passion. Both parties are driven more by hatred than by love. Both sides feel it would be a disaster for the country if the other side had power during the next four years.

Many Democratic politicians think Obama looks down on them as a bunch of lowlife hacks. As Noonan wrote in that column, he sometimes seems to regard politics as a weary duty on his path to greatness. The Republican coolness toward Romney is such that he’s having trouble recruiting people to work on the campaign.

Sixth, no enactment strategy. To avert catastrophe, the next president will have to rally bipartisan majorities around a budget deal and many other things. That will require personal and relationship skills neither has demonstrated. The polarizing, negative tactics the candidates use to get elected will make it impossible to succeed after one of them wins.

Seventh, ad budget myopia. Both campaigns fervently believe that more spending leads to more votes. They also believe that if they can carpet bomb swing voters with enough negative ads, then eventually the sheer weight of the barrage will produce movement in their direction. There’s little evidence that these prejudices are true.

Eighth, technology is making campaigns dumber. BlackBerrys and iPhones mean that campaigns can respond to their opponents minute by minute and hour by hour. The campaigns get lost in tit-for-tat minutiae that nobody outside the bubble cares about.

Finally, dishonesty numbs. A few years ago, newspapers and nonprofits set up fact-checking squads, rating campaign statements with Pinocchios and such. The hope was that if nonpartisan outfits exposed campaign deception, the campaigns would be too ashamed to lie so much.

This hope was naive. As John Dickerson of Slate has said, the campaigns want the Pinocchios. They want to show how tough they are. This is the paradox. As campaigns get more sophisticated, everything begins to look more homogenized, less effective and indescribably soporific.

The entitled generation speaks out f you were born before 1946 or after 1964, you are free to go. Kindly close the door on your way out. I need a private moment with my fellow baby boomers.

So, I imagine you’re all feeling a little unappreciated these days. We seem to have entered one of our periodic seasons of boomer-bashing.

In rapid Op-Ed succession, we children of the postwar demographic bulge have been blamed for turning religion into an indulgent free-for-all, for giving elites a bad name and for making greed respectable, or at least acceptable. That’s just this month.

And it’s not only conservatives beating us with the Woodstock whip. Kurt Andersen, a confessed liberal and one of our more prolific cultural omnivores, started the latest thumping July 4 with an argument that amoral self-gratification is just the flip side of social liberation: “Thanks to the ’60s, we are all shamelessly selfish.”

The notion that our generation has been spoiled rotten is not a terribly new thought. A dozen years ago Paul Begala (of Bill Clinton and CNN fame) published in Esquire the classic of boomer-loathing, “The Worst Generation.”

“The Baby Boomers are the most self-centered, self-seeking, self-interested, self-absorbed, self-indulgent, self-aggrandizing generation in American history,” he declared.

It’s a sturdy genre. Perhaps while Googling yourself you have come across the blog Boomer Deathwatch (“Because one day, they’ll all be dead”), a checklist of famous boomers who hit their actuarial sell-by dates.

Even Barack Obama, who styles himself post-boomer though he was born in 1961, complained in “The Audacity of Hope” that today’s hyperpolarized political discourse began with the “psychodrama of the baby boom generation.”

Yes, yes, this criticism is glib. We didn’t start the war in Vietnam, but members of our generation fought both in it and against it, demonstrating some of the spirit of sacrifice we are not famous for.

Our ranks include the outsourcers of Bain and the wizards of the Wall Street casino, but also the entrepreneurial genius of Steve Jobs and Bill Gates. The Bill Clinton of Monicagate was the first boomer president, but so was the Bill Clinton of relative peace and prosperity. Our record-buying dollars gave the world disco — so sorry about that — but also Motown and Springsteen. I’d say the argument will continue forever if that didn’t sound like such an all-about-us, boomer thing to say.

But even though the caricature is way too easy, it has stuck, and we all know that it contains more than a nugget of truth. We are an entitled bunch.

Burke’s latest resumes the tale

THE EXQUISITE WORLD OF RARE BOOKS

“Sidney Chambers and the Shadow of Death”

By James Runcie (Bloomsbury, 400 pgs., $16)

“Creole Belle”

By James Lee Burke (Simon & Schuster, 529 pgs., $27.99)

By Mary Ann Gwinn The Seattle Times

There’s an appealing and appropriate cover illustration for British author James Runcie’s new mystery, “Sidney Chambers and the Shadow of Death.” A man and his black Lab stand in a field as they gaze upon one of England’s dreaming spires (Cambridge, in this case).

In the foreground looms the shadow of a man, probably meant to be one of the murderers featured in this five-story collection, stalking vicar Sidney Chambers as he serves God and solves crimes.

I’m taking a different tack — I think this shadow is the shade of Father Brown.

Father Brown was the hero of a series of mysteries British author/philosopher G.K. Chesterton wrote in the first half of the 20th century. The father was a Catholic priest with a razorsharp intellect, a profound understanding of human nature and a rock-solid faith in God. Edinburgh author/filmmaker Runcie, son of an Archbishop of Canterbury, has created a hero who walks in Father Brown’s distinguished footsteps. Sidney Chambers is a vicar of the Anglican church, a war veteran who teaches at Cambridge on the side. He also solves mysteries.

The five stories in “Shadow of Death,” set in the England of the 1950s, involve some improbable setups and the usual stuff of English murder mysteries, including a suicide that isn’t, jewelry theft and art forgery. What sets them apart is Sidney Chambers’ world view. He’s a Christian, but his detective work forces him to confront the darker side of human nature, a good-evil dichotomy some might call the ultimate mystery.

It’s a school of writing history • Librarians, conservators, scholars meet to discuss and learn about the life of a book

By Jennifer Schuessler New York Times News Service

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. — On a steamy morning last week Mark Dimunation, the chief of the Rare Book and Special Collections Division at the Library of Congress, was in a windowless basement room here at the University of Virginia, leading a dozen people in a bibliophile’s version of the wave.

He lined up the group and handed each person a sheet of copier paper with a syllable written on it. After a few halting practice runs — “Hipna-rah-toe …” — the group successfully shouted out, “‘Hypnerotomachia Poliphili,’ 1499!”

The phrase was not an incantation ripped from the pages of a lost Dan Brown novel, but the title and publication date of a long, erotic love poem printed in Venice by Aldus Manutius and often described as one of the weirdest and most beautiful books ever produced.

And the occasion was just an ordinary class meeting at Rare Book School, an institution whose football team, if it existed, might well take “Hypnerotomachia Poliphili!” as its official rallying cry.

For five weeks each summer, Rare Book School brings some 300 librarians, conservators, scholars, dealers, collectors and random book-mad civilians together for weeklong intensive courses in an atmosphere that combines the intensity of the seminar room, the nerdiness of a “Star Trek” convention and the camaraderie of a summer camp where people come back year after year.

Vic Zoschak, a retired Coast Guard pilot turned antiquarian bookseller from Alameda, Calif., took his first class in 1998 and has returned for 14 more. “Flying search-andrescue missions was satisfying work,” he said. “But here, I found my people.”

‘A lot more to reading’ For many, Rare Book School is an important networking opportunity, not to mention a chance to bunk in the Thomas Jefferson-designed lodgings that ring the university’s famous central Lawn, with their appropriately antiquarian lack of indoor toilets. But it also fills an important intellectual niche, teaching skills and knowledge that have been orphaned by increasingly technology-minded library schools and theory-oriented literature departments.

Bringing an understanding of the materiality of the book back into literary studies is

something that Michael Suarez — a Jesuit priest and Oxford-trained specialist in 18thcentury British literature who took over as the school’s director in 2009 — speaks of with an almost missionary zeal.

“A book is a coalescence of human intentions,” he said in a phrase often repeated around the school. “We think we know how to read it because we can read the language. But there’s a lot more to reading than just the language in the book.”

The atmosphere at Rare Books School, which was founded at Columbia University in 1983 by the scholar Terry Belanger and transplanted to Charlottesville in 1992, is casual and egalitarian, despite the presence on the faculty of some of the world’s leading experts in the history of the book.

But woe to those outsiders who take casual liberties with the basics. Younger staff members admit to playing a drinking game based on the howlers in “The Ninth Gate,” a bibliothriller starring Johnny Depp as a rakish rare-book scout given to carelessly cracking spines and looking up 17thcentury hand-press books in Books in Print.

And don’t get anyone started on Umberto Eco’s “Name of the Rose.”

“It’s a great story,” Jan Storm van Leeuwen, the retired keeper of the binding collection at the Dutch Royal Library in The Hague, said when the subject came up one night at dinner. “But his description of the library is full of mistakes.”

The writing moment Initiation into the devilishly complex particulars of book history is acquired in the school’s lectures and lab sessions, where students learn to look past the words on the page to recover the moment when ink met paper.

In a Hogwarts-worthy reading room on an upper floor of the university’s Alderman Library one morning, students in Advanced Descriptive Bibliography were bent over books with tape measures and mini light sabers called Zelcos, scanning the pages for watermarks, lines and other clues that can potentially trace a given sheet back to a specific paper mold in a specific mill.

The goal of Advanced Des Bib — or advanced “boot camp,” as students put it — is to reverse-engineer precisely how the pages of the book were folded, cut, printed and gathered. The whole process is then described in a string of symbols that, to the newcomer, can look less like a reconstruc-

tion of an ordinary day’s work in an 18th-century print shop than like instructions for building a small nuclear reactor.

Downstairs in a seminar room Richard Noble, a rarebook cataloger from Brown University, quoted a warning against writing formulas — as the descriptions, which are published in scholarly catalogs, are known — that were “hirsute with commas.”

“You want the important information to jump right out at you,” he said.

Other courses allowed students to linger over the more frankly sensual properties of old books. In Storm van Leeuwen’s class on the history of bookbinding, a session was dedicated to passing around felt-lined baskets filled with exquisite hand-marbled papers from the 18th century to the present, many drawn from his own collection.

In a course titled History of the Book, 200 to 2000, Dimunation of the Library of Congress and his co-teacher, John Buchtel, the head of special collections at Georgetown University, raided the University of Virginia’s vaults to stage a parade of precious objects that was like a slide show come miraculously to life: a loose leaf from a Gutenberg Bible; a copy of the first printed edition of Euclid’s geometry, from 1482; a 1493 Nuremberg Chronicle.

But Rare Book School isn’t just about pondering jawdropping masterpieces of printing. What makes the experience unique, students say, is the chance to see — and touch — a huge variety of objects from the school’s 80,000-item teaching collection, including many that have been folded, stained, waterlogged, written in, wormeaten or sometimes completely disemboweled.

“We’re very interested in ways books are marked over time,” said Barbara Heritage, the school’s assistant director and curator of the collection.

And rare books aren’t just a matter of leather and fine paper. Suarez has added a num-

ber of classes about digitization and likes to begin his own course, Teaching the History of the Book, by passing around a box of Harlequins. Romance novels, he notes, are the biggest part of the publishing industry, and the part that has been most radically transformed by e-books.

“I tell my students to follow the money,” he said. “If you don’t understand the money, you don’t understand the book.”

‘Kind of addicting’ Zoschak, the bookseller from California, said he tried to cover the several thousand dollars it costs him to attend each year by book-hunting in Charlottesville’s many antiquarian bookshops. Academics, whose freight is often paid by their home institutions, say that immersion in what Suarez calls “archaeology of the book” yields big intellectual dividends.

“Before I came here, I had been picking up knowledge piecemeal in libraries,” said Meredith Neuman, an assistant professor of English at Clark University who was enrolled in the bookbinding class. “Once you start looking at books this way, it can be kind of addictive.”

In his opening remarks each week, Suarez tells students that the purpose of Rare Book School is to acquire knowledge that will lead to wonder, which may then “incline toward love.”

The books themselves, however, sometimes have less lofty ideas. After Dimunation led his class in the “Hypnerotomachia” cheer, an assistant brought out a copy from the first printing of the book and began turning the pages, which promptly opened on a woodcut — a figure with an extravagant erection.

“There’s a truism about teaching with books,” Dimunation said as the class erupted in titters. “The first thing that shows up is the one thing you don’t want to find.”

James Lee Burke’s 2010 novel, “The Glass Rainbow,” ended with a cliffhanger when Louisiana lawman Dave Robicheaux and his best buddy, the private investigator Clete Purcel, were engulfed in a fusillade of gunfire.

“Creole Belle,” the 19th book in the Robicheaux series, picks up where that previous book concluded.

Dave is in a New Orleans recovery facility.

The gunshot wounds are slowly healing, and he is being heavily medicated for pain.

During a seemingly lucid moment he thinks that he has a visitor, a beautiful woman he knows. Her name is Tee Jolie Melton.

She confides that “the man I’m wit’ does bidness sometimes with dangerous people.”

Dave is concerned. He tries to counsel her. As she departs, she gives him an iPod loaded with some of his favorite music. She is a gifted singer. Some of the songs are recordings of her performances.

Shortly thereafter, he gets released from the hospital.

When he mentions that Tee Jolie paid him a visit in there, he is met by disbelief, because she has not been seen in months. She has vanished.

Dave wants to verify that this actually happened. The morphine he was on might have made him imagine it all. But he has her iPod. He had listened to her songs on it. Then when he tries to play Tee Jolie’s songs for someone else, they are no longer on there. Very mysterious.

We know what comes next; Dave and Clete will try to solve the mystery of the Creole belle’s disappearance. Fortunately for us, we can luxuriate in the 500-plus pages of Burke’s sinuous tale before we can decipher this complex puzzle.

Dave and Clete are former New Orleans police officers, the “Bobbsey Twins of homicide.”

While Dave has quit drinking, Clete never seems to stop drinking. They often take different approaches to vanquishing evil-doers.

Clete is impulsive and explosive. Burke describes him as being like “a junkyard falling down a staircase.”

Author interview I called James Lee Burke at his home in Montana.

We talked about Dave and Clete.

He explained that “the two men are opposite sides of the same coin. They form one character: One is the chivalric knight in rusted armor. The other is the merry prankster, the jester, the trickster out of folklore.”

“Creole Belle” is set with a backdrop of environmental devastation caused by the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. Burke populates his story with a slew of potential suspects who might know what happened to Tee Jolie.

At age 75, Burke writes seven days a week. He told me: “In terms of what constitutes a person’s life; for me it’s family and friends.

That’s it. When you get down the track, you get to the seventh-inning stretch, the conclusion you come to; that’s all that counts.”

SUNDAY, AUGUST 5, 2012 • THE BULLETIN

Seelig Continued from F1 Asked what her daughter’s biggest mistake might have been, Gibson said it was being young, carefree, adventurous and trusting.

“She had a wonderful innocent quality about her,” said her friend Erin Durant, an aspiring songwriter who worked as a waitress with Seelig. “I don’t mean that in a naïve way — that’s a terrible word to use, innocent, but she was very, like, kind but real.”

An artist’s roots Sabrina was the younger of two sisters, and when she was little, her family lived in Philadelphia, where her parents taught at the University of the Arts. When she was 11, they moved to Rockland, Maine, a lobster town and artists’ colony. She and her sister, Ashley, went skinny-dipping in the granite quarries. Their mother designed and sold clothing. Their father taught art and made ethereal sculptural forms that have been installed at places like the Pennsylvania Convention Center and the new American Embassy in Monrovia, Liberia.

When she was 13, she wanted to start an ice cream stand.

Her father helped her build it, and they named it Lulu’s, after their dog. The stand became a real business, a local phenomenon, and her sister still runs it today, with a small altar to Sabrina. “It has an authenticity about it, and Sabrina loved that kind of thing,” Warren Seelig said. “She is an old soul,” he added, speaking of his younger daughter, still, in the present tense.

As a teenager, she directed plays, and her best friend, Caitlin FitzGerald, now an actress, starred in them. She graduated from high school a year early, in 2001, and took time off to travel before spending two years at Hampshire College in Amherst, Mass., attracted by its reputation for creativity. Then, restless again, she moved to New York, where her sister was in art school.

Bohemian sanctuary Seelig found an apartment at 70 St. Nicholas Avenue, five blocks from Wyckoff Hospital, and filled it with inspirational quotations from literature, shells from Maine and two paintings by her sister — “the only ones she ever liked,” Ashley said, adding, “It was, like, extremely bohemian, like, oh, come on.”

She drank Earl Grey tea with steamed milk, and wore flowing thrift-shop dresses.

Durant took her to the office of The Brooklyn Rail, a free, nonprofit journal of arts and politics based in Greenpoint, in a building just over the Pulaski Bridge from Long Island City, Queens, on a street so desolate it belongs in film noir.

For Seelig, it was a sanctuary, almost like going home.

The Rail’s publisher, Phong Bui, would let her visit in the middle of the night, after a shift as a waitress, so she could have a quiet place to write.

“She would bring a bottle of wine or make coffee, depending on her mood,” he said.

To David Varno, then The Rail’s production editor, now getting a master’s degree in creative writing at Columbia, it felt like a salon. “We would read books, talk about Walter Benjamin’s ‘Illuminations,’ Dore Ashton’s ‘New York School,’” Varno said.

He went to her apartment for a couple of parties and saw her for the first time surrounded by her friends from Hampshire College, worldly, sophisticated and promising.

“They were all wearing these kind of fancy party dresses,” he said. “I felt almost out of my element, but also happy to see that side of her, to see her in a more festive atmosphere.”

Waiting on tables at the Pink Pony, on the Lower East Side, she met a regular customer, Jan Baracz, a Polandborn artist who was 25 years older than she was, and they started dating.

Fateful night On May 29, the day after Memorial Day, Seelig worked the dinner shift at Tree, a new restaurant in the East Village started by Colm Clancy, an Irish immigrant who had talked her into working for him.

She told Baracz that she could not see him because she had to go home to Bushwick to write her Latin paper. When her roommate, Colin Barry,

left for work around 8 a.m. the next day, she was still at the kitchen table, papers spread out around her.

About 10:45 a.m., she called 911.

“I, I, I think I’m poisoned,” she says on the recording of the call, which was provided to her parents after her death.

“I think after taking Ephedra, I looked online but I took Valerian, which is maybe poison, but I am having a hard time,” she went on. Valerian is an herbal sleep remedy, which some toxicologists believe is a kind of placebo, with no medicinal qualities.

She added, “I’ve been vomiting for the past while, and my limbs feel heavy.”

She hesitated only when asked her age. “Ah, 20-, 22, 23, no!” she cried. To her family, her confusion was understandable. Her birthday was two weeks away, on June 15.

The dispatcher asked if her door was unlocked, and she said she would go downstairs and unlock it.

Call to poison control When the ambulance did not come right away, she called the health department’s Poison Control Center.

The Poison Control operator, a woman, told her to sit down and wait for the ambulance.

Seelig: When will they come?

Poison Control: When did you call them?

Seelig: I don’t know. A while ago.

The operator, who seemed to be putting her off, asked if she could call a friend.

Seelig: I can, I did; they didn’t answer.

Poison Control: Your mom?

Seelig: No. My mom is in a different state. I don’t think it will help.

Poison Control, dismissively: Well maybe you could just talk to her for right now until the ambulance comes.

Seelig: OK. Poison Control: OK. All right. Bye. As the woman hung up and the line clicked, Sabrina could still be heard saying, “But help …”

The missed calls are part of the legacy of guilt and regret.

Before going to the hospital, Seelig called Baracz and a friend, Rebecca Green, but they did not pick up. She left no messages.

“Sometimes I think I have vibes,” her mother said. “But I definitely had no vibes that morning or that day that anything was wrong. It just came out of the blue.”

Friends investigate None of her friends had any inkling that anything was wrong until that night, when Seelig was supposed to host a dinner party. That afternoon, Baracz began calling about the menu. When she did not answer by 6 p.m., he sent a friend, Joanna Spinks, who lived around the corner, to look for her. The door to her apartment was unlocked and her laptop was on her bed, showing the Poison Control website. By calling 311, Baracz tracked her down at Wyckoff.

Spinks got to the hospital first, around 8 p.m., and then was joined by Green. They found Seelig in a small bed with a curtain around it. “She was there unconscious with all the tubes in her,” Spinks said.

Her face looked normal, as if she were sleeping. “We were cutting up, like ‘Earth to Sabrina,’” at her bedside, Green said, aghast at the memory.

Quickly, the guests from the

canceled dinner party converged on the hospital.

Baracz, now 53, remembers asking a nurse what had happened. “You know what happened,” she replied.

“Every hour they gave us a new explanation of what was happening,” Green said.

“When she was still asleep at 5 a.m., we knew something was wrong.”

Baracz called Seelig’s mother, who remembers being told by hospital staff that she should not rush to New York, that her daughter would come out of it by morning.

Ignoring that advice, she and Warren Seelig drove two hours to the airport in Portland that night and got to the hospital Thursday morning, where they were told that a constellation of specialists was being consulted.

Frustrated by a lack of clarity, Seelig’s parents had her transferred to the Weill Cornell campus of New YorkPresbyterian Hospital in Manhattan that evening; there, doctors tried a cooling therapy. Her friends held hands and sang. But it was too late. On June 4, 2007, Sabrina Seelig was declared brain-dead, and she was taken off life support the next day.

Seelig was an organ donor, so by the time of the autopsy, her body had already been carved up. The medical examiner concluded that she had died of “water intoxication,” which usually means becoming overloaded with water without enough salt.

No one is left to tell what Seelig was thinking or feeling before she died. The medical record, a jumble of handwritten notes, offers the only insight into her death. It came out over four weeks in May this year, at the trial for malpractice.

which of them had found her when she crashed.

Most telling, all the witnesses agreed that there were no new vital signs entered in her chart for more than three hours, from 2:35 to 6:10 p.m., when she was found in a holding or overflow area with a racing heartbeat and foaming at the mouth. Smith said she had been watching Seelig’s cardiac monitor constantly, so there was no need to write down her vital signs.

Agonizing death The plaintiffs’ expert, Dr. Kelly Johnson-Arbor, argued that Seelig had been ignored while she suffered an agonizing death of hypoxia, or lack of oxygen, which if she were awake would have led to a feeling of being “suffocated,” from the combined effects of the sedative drugs she had been given.

The defense argued that she had had a heart attack brought on by taking at least three Ephedra pills and whatever other drugs she might have taken. (The chart notes that she was “known” to take Focalin, an attention-deficit disorder drug commonly abused by college students to study.)

Late in the trial, as the plaintiffs’ lawyer, Alan Fuchsberg, realized that it was going badly, he tried to suggest that the low salt level cited by the medical examiner should have been urgently treated, but a defense objection was sustained.

Johnson-Arbor stood alone against three defense experts, one for Dr. Mardach, one for the nurse and one for the hospital and its intern, Dr. Kaul.

She was hugely pregnant; they were all middle-aged men in suits.

In his closing, the hospital’s lawyer, Michael Lehrman, blamed Seelig for bringing about her own death with whatever cocktail of drugs she had taken. “You heard how confused she was,” he said.

“She couldn’t even say her age.

She was already in the process at that point of dying.”

The verdict After a day and a half of deliberations, the jury of four men and two women returned its verdict: Wyckoff and the individuals working there had not been negligent.

The jury did not seem to identify with Seelig.

One juror, Marat Leychik, 23, an unemployed graduate of John Jay College of Criminal Justice who lives with his parents in Coney Island, said he had never had to use any stimulants, not even caffeine, to write a paper. “She, in my opinion, overexerted herself,” he said.

Another juror, Irene Katzos, 39, a homemaker turned breadwinner from Bay Ridge, said that unlike Seelig she was “not artsy.” When the Poison Control call was played, Katzos saw tears streaming down the face of Seelig’s father, who was hearing the recording for the first time. “I swore I would never look over there again,” she said.

Questions linger After the trial, Dr. Eric Manheimer, former medical director of Bellevue Hospital Center in Manhattan, where he oversaw one of the busiest and most highly regarded emergency rooms in the country, reviewed Seelig’s chart at the request of The Times and concluded that she had not been

properly monitored.

As a precaution, doctors should have put a tube in her airway to keep her from breathing her own vomit and stomach acid and to provide oxygen, he said. And they should have moved her to intensive care. Her low salt could have been an additional “metabolic cause of stupor and coma,” he said.

“It’s not rocket science,” Manheimer said.

“Once your mental status is going down, you don’t know when the person is going to stop breathing.”

Little consolation Seelig’s parents are left with a July 2007 letter of condolence from Dr. Thomas Frieden, then New York City’s health commissioner, whose office turned over the Poison Control recording.

“I wept after hearing the recording,” wrote Frieden, now head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

“As a parent, physician and fellow human being, I was deeply disturbed by the interaction of the Poison Control Center with your daughter,” he wrote. Frieden said that the person who took the call “no longer works for the Poison Control Center,” and that he was working on better coordination with 911.

For Warren Seelig and Sherrie Gibson, the letter serves as evidence that their daughter’s death did matter to someone, and made some difference.

Asked what lesson might be taught by Sabrina’s death, Gibson said there was one.

“No one should go to a hospital without someone with you — no one,” she said. “Don’t go unless somebody at least knows you’re there.”

Few changes In 2007, when Seelig was a patient, the state ordered Wyckoff to hire a management consultant to improve its governance and finances. Five years later, it is still struggling.

The Brooklyn district attorney has been investigating allegations of mismanagement. A three-month investigation by The New York Times, the results of which were published in March, found a history of insider dealing and positions being given to people with political ties. The hospital officials involved denied any wrongdoing. The hospital does not carry malpractice insurance.

In a pretrial deposition, an emergency-room doctor, Dali Mardach, remembered asking Seelig, “What’s a nicelooking girl like you doing in Brooklyn?”

Mardach gave her two antinausea drugs, Phenergan and Tigan, which experts said can be sedating. As Seelig thrashed on the stretcher, Mardach ordered two doses of Ativan, a strong sedative, given intravenously at 1:15 and 1:45 p.m., for a total of four milligrams. She also ordered wrist restraints so that Seelig would not rip out her IV or hurt herself.

Much of the trial was a blur of technical detail. There was conflicting testimony as to whether Seelig was ever given oxygen. Her first blood test, which showed she was low on salt, was compromised; another test was not performed for hours. She was put in the care of a junior physician in training, Sameer Kaul, who found that she was “barely arousable.” Mardach and the nurse, Joyce Smith, disagreed about

Mother, ‘Hidden Treasures’ a stroll down medicine memory lane son pair to pen crime thriller “Hidden Treasure: The National Library of Medicine” (Blast Books, 240 pgs., $50)

By Abigail Zuger, M.D.

New York Times News Service

The 175-year-old National Library of Medicine in

Bethesda, Md., is best known these days for its PubMed database, the pre-eminent digital catalog of the biomedical literature. But like many digital giants, the library has its dusty analog past.

In this case, that amounts to more than 17 million books,

pamphlets, prints and other assorted memorabilia, a small fraction of which is rediscovered in the pages of a gorgeous new book.

Many of the 450 color prints in “Hidden Treasure” record the efforts of generations of anatomists to re-create the

body in two-dimensional printable form. In 1543, the great Vesalius thought a pair of statuesque paper dolls might do the trick; his readers could cut out little paper organs and paste them in the right places.

Years later American stu-

dents could flip open dozens of doors on a life-size cardboard manikin and pretend to dissect or, if they preferred, to operate.

The book’s illustrations are accompanied by short scholarly essays providing context and comment.

BIG

“Close Your Eyes”

By Iris and Roy Johansen (St. Martin’s Press, 368 pgs., $27.99)

COUNTRY RV BRINGS YOU THE

AT THE HOOKER CREEK EVENT CENTER

By Connie Ogle McClatchy-Tribune News Service

There are other, obvious things that unite them — such as being mother and son, no small bond, but what brought Iris and Roy Johansen together as writers was submarines.

“We kept saying ‘We’ve got to write something together,’” says Iris Johansen, the prolific author of contemporary and historical romance novels as well as 17 popular works of suspense, including the best-selling Eve Duncan series.

“We have similar styles — we both write by the seat of our pants — but it was very difficult to find a vehicle that could please him and me too. Then one day he came back from Chicago, and he said, ‘Mom, I found it!’ I said, ‘What?’ He said: ‘Submarines!’

I said, ‘Wait, Roy, I have to tell you — I’m not Tom Clancy.’”

But Roy Johansen’s trip to the Windy City’s Museum of Science and Industry, which has a German sub captured in World War II on display, paid off handsomely. It inspired the pair’s first novel together, “Silent Thunder,” about a marine architect who discovers a dangerous secret while preparing a decommissioned Soviet sub for an exhibit.

The Johansens’ fourth collaboration, “Close Your Eyes” (St. Martin’s, $27.99), is a thriller about a music teacher whose sight has been restored through stem cell surgery.

Being blind, though, has had one advantage; it has allowed smart, observant Kendra Michaels to perfect her other senses. She’s a problem-solver who’s an impressive weapon, and the FBI enlists her to help with an investigation into an agent’s disappearance. He just happens to be Kendra’s ex.

“She’s a unique character,” says Roy Johansen, 52, a screenwriter and Edgar Award-winning author of the novels “Deadly Visions” and “The Answer Man.” “We had a lot of fun with that, having her walk into a room and know everything about people. But it has to mean something to the overall plot of the story. It has to have some purpose, to push the story forward constantly.”

You might think residing on opposite sides of the country — Roy lives in Los Angeles, and Iris lives outside Atlanta — would make collaborating difficult, but the Johansens have perfected their system (with daughter and sister Tamera acting as Iris’ research assistant). One of them comes up with an idea, and they spend some time discussing it. Specifics come later. They agree on a concept, and one of them will write 70 or 80 pages, then pass the story along to the other to write the next 70 or 80 pages.

The approach keeps both writers on their toes.

“We each rewrite the other’s work,” says Roy. “We’re constantly surprising each other with these pages. It’s really fun to see characters I created in the first 80 pages and see what she does with them, as well as introduce new characters that I’ll have to pick up.”

Helpfully, the setup also ensures an extra layer of editing — and inspires a certain amount of mischief.

“Every time we get pages from each other, it’s a challenge,” Iris says. “It gets so we’re trying to outdo each other. He’ll paint me into a corner, and I’ll have to get out.

And then I’ll spring something on him.”

“Hopefully,” Roy says, “some of that sense of surprise transfers to the readers. It’s definitely fun to get to the end of (the other writer’s contribution) and say, ‘What am I going to do now?’”

SKILLS GAP • Report says many nursing, truck driving and engineering jobs in Central Oregon go unfilled Alex McDougall / The Bulletin

Prineville resident Lynn White created Divaroo .com to help divorced parents like herself, manage shared child-custody arrangements.

John Smith, a new hire with Central Oregon Truck Co., looks in the cab of his truck at the company’s Terrebonne truck yard. Trucking was one of more than 20 jobs the state identified as lacking skilled workers, in an Employment Department report published this week.

By Elon Glucklich • The Bulletin

T

he cargo loads heading out from Central Oregon Truck Co. stations have grown more frequent in recent years, with demand for low-cost freight service pushing up company profits each of the last three years.

Frustrated with ignored text messages and phone calls, missed pickup and dropoff dates for her children and an overall lack of communication with her ex-husband, Lynn White created Divaroo.com — a website to manage shared child-custody arrangements.

The site gives divorced parents a central location accessible via the Web to store and share information about their children and coordinate scheduling details that arise when children must travel between two homes.

It’s equipped with a place to upload and store documents, like custody decrees and children’s records. Divaroo also has a calendar, a contact list, a journal, a photo gallery, house-rules list and a virtual backpack to keep track of children’s belongings that move from house to house.

But Rick Williams, the Prineville-based company’s CEO, needs another truck driver or two to keep that

momentum going.

New employee Smith checks the engine of a truck at Central Oregon Truck Co. in Terrebonne.

Company CEO Rick Williams says he could use about 20 more drivers to keep his Prineville-based company operating at full speed.

Actually, he could use about 20.

Williams faces a shortage of truck drivers at a time when demand for trucking service is growing. He’d like to have 210 drivers, but is at about 190 right now.

Trucking is one of more than 20 industries in Oregon where employers say they struggle to find skilled workers. A new report from the Oregon Employment Department, “Key Workforce Challenges: Businesses Struggle to Find Skilled Workers,” looked at job postings filed with the department in the fall of 2011, finding more than 2,000 open positions had gone unfilled for two months or longer.

With tens of thousands of Oregon residents looking for work, bringing in a few extra truck drivers may not seem too hard.

But finding qualified drivers “is a huge challenge,” Williams said.

They need a commercial driver’s license to operate big trucks. They need to pass physicals and driver safety courses in order to be insured.

Race to create the perfect soda How the new diets stack up

By Candice Choi The Associated Press

NEW YORK — Coke and Pepsi are chasing after the sweet spot: a soda with no calories, no artificial sweeteners and no funny aftertaste.

The world’s top soft drink companies hope that’s the elusive trifecta that will silence health concerns about soda and reverse the decline in consumption of carbonated drinks.

But such a formula could be years away.

That’s because the ingredient that makes soda taste good is also what packs on the pounds: high-fructose corn syrup. Artificial sweeteners like aspartame that are used in diet drinks don’t have any calories but are seen as processed and fake. Natural sweeteners that come from plants present the most promising alternative, but companies haven’t yet figured out how to mask their metallic aftertaste.

Despite the complexities, soft drink makers push on in their search.

“I can’t say when it will be here, but it’s in the reasonable future,” said Al Carey, who heads the beverage unit for the Americas at PepsiCo Inc., the world’s No. 2 soda maker.

There’s good reason that soft drink makers are so eager to tweak their formulas. Once a

NEW YORK — Ask five strangers to taste five new diet sodas and you might get one opinion: Try again.

As soda consumption has declined over the past several years amid worries about the nation’s obesity rates, The Coca-Cola Co., PepsiCo Inc. and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc. have worked to come up with sodas that have fewer calories but still taste good.

The Associated Press asked a panel that included a food blogger and Bruce Bozzi, who heads marketing at The Palm steakhouses, to come to its New York City headquarters to gauge how the latest generation of low-calorie sodas stack up to the originals. The verdict?

Banks get into prepaid cards

By Doreen Hemlock Sun Sentinel

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Big banks are entering the business of prepaid debit cards, as more Americans turn to reloadable plastic as a handy alternative to checking accounts, check-cashing stores and other financial options.

Giant JPMorgan Chase is especially aggressive. In late June, it launched Liquid, a card that lets users load and withdraw money at Chaseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s extensive branch and ATM network at no charge.

Some analysts call Liquid a â&#x20AC;&#x153;game changer,â&#x20AC;? because most prepaid cards charge for loading, withdrawal and other services that Chase is offering free at its network.

Wells Fargo also began offering a prepaid card in March, Regions Bank has one, and other large and regional banks are preparing or considering a launch.

The banksâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; motivation: to tap the booming prepaid market and obtain new sources of revenue to offset big losses from lower fees collected on traditional debit cards used at stores, analysts said.

South Florida is key to the prepaid card push, because the area hosts a wider range of banks and a larger share of residents without banking accounts than many other U.S. areas. About 8.4 percent of South Florida households were without a checking or savings account, compared with 7 percent â&#x20AC;&#x153;unbankedâ&#x20AC;? statewide and 7.7 percent nationwide, according to a census study based on 2009 data.

Chase sees special opportunity for Liquid in Florida because of its extensive network of branches and ATMs in the state, said Jon Wilk, head of product and marketing for Chase consumer banking. It has 42 branches in Broward County, 44 in Palm Beach County and 309 statewide,

government data shows.

Cardholders who use Liquid can leverage Chase outlets to cash checks, load money and withdraw cash for free, saving handsomely compared to other cards, Wilk said.

In contrast, Wells Fargoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s prepaid card charges users $5 to load money on their card, unless they have a Wells Fargo credit card.

It charges $3 to withdraw cash at a teller, the bankâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s website said.

That explains why comparison website CardHub. com ranks Chase Liquid the best prepaid card for consumers seeking an alternative to check-cashing stores. Liquid cardholders pay nothing to cash checks and load cards at Chase outlets, services that can cost $5 or more at checkcashing stores.

Still, Liquid has its limits. The card may not lure many â&#x20AC;&#x153;unbankedâ&#x20AC;? customers in low-income areas where Chase has few outlets, said analyst Tim Sloane, of Mercator Advisory Group in Boston. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Liquid will appeal more to the up-market, including existing Chase customers who want a prepaid card for their childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s allowance or for budgeting,â&#x20AC;? said Sloane, vice president of Mercatorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s prepaid advisory services.

Banks are tapping a booming market they helped create. Many Americans are turning to prepaid cards to flee rising fees on bank accounts. For instance, Chase now charges $12 a month for basic checking, unless consumers qualify for waivers based on direct deposit or minimum balances. Its monthly fee for the Chase Liquid prepaid card runs less than half that rate: $4.95.

HOA trouble can arise when residents arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t free agents

By Kathleen Lynn The Record

HACKENSACK, N.J. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Nicole Arseneau wants a sump pump installed to deal with her leaky basement. But sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been waiting nearly a year for the go-ahead from the homeowners association at her small Bergenfield, N.J., townhouse community.

Kate Conover had trees and shrubs removed from around her deck. Now sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s locked in a dispute with the homeowners association and manager at her Mahwah, N.J., townhouse community about replacing them.

Marie Rubino loves her Wayne, N.J., townhouse, but the shrubs outside her front door keep dying, and the homeownersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; association isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t doing enough to improve the landscaping.

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plenty to like about living in a condo, co-op or townhouse, including freedom from mowing the lawn and shoveling the snow. But homeowners also give up some of their rights to decide what to do with their property. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you do not like anybody telling you what to do, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t move into a townhouse,â&#x20AC;? said Conover, a real estate agent.

And living in close quarters under a set of community rules can lead to clashes among homeowners and their neighbors, the homeownersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; association or the management company. Disputes often center on a handful of issues: noise, pets, subletting and damage to the homeownerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unit, especially water damage. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Noise is the No. 1 source of complaints,â&#x20AC;? said Eric Frizzell, a Glen Rock, N.J., lawyer who represents a number of homeowner associations. No one wants to hear a barking dog or the clomping of an upstairs neighbor who pulled up the carpet.

Disputes can become heated because they involve fundamental issues of â&#x20AC;&#x153;where people live and their enjoyment of their home,â&#x20AC;? said Felicia Farber, a Hackensack lawyer who often mediates disputes involving condos and townhouses.

Problems like noise, damage or mold â&#x20AC;&#x153;directly affect the quality of peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lives; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very emotional,â&#x20AC;? she said.

The potential irritants are many: A unit owner sublets to tenants who donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take care of the property. The neighborâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dog relieves itself in the hallway or on the lawn. Neighbors smoke at the pool or speed through the complex. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You put a bunch of people on a small piece of property, and not everybodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to behave themselves,â&#x20AC;? said Gary Wilkin, president of the Wilkin Management Group in Mahwah, which has managed communities for almost 30 years.

Spending on maintenance is a frequent source of friction. Homeowners sometimes question whether the homeownersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; association board is spending money wisely and picking the best contractors.

Some households are willing to pay higher monthly fees to upgrade the complex; others are determined to keep fees down, especially if theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re on fixed incomes or have faced financial setbacks. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You and I may be neighbors. And I may want what I want and be willing to write that check, but you may say, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to spend that money,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? Wilkin said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The economy has come into the equation in the last few years.â&#x20AC;?

Homeowner associations have even been involved in constitutional issues. In two recent cases in New Jersey, homeowners said their associations were violating their free-speech rights by restricting the display of signs on their property.

In the most recent of these cases, involving a town house development in Parsippany, N.J., the state Supreme Court ruled that a homeownersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; association cannot ban signs put up by homeowners because that would violate their free-

Marie Rubino, of Wayne, N.J., has been arguing with her homeowners association about the landscaping at her townhouse. Rubino says she pays for landscaping maintenance just like her neighbors but she doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get the same quality of service.

speech rights. That case involved a homeowner who ran for Township Council and put political signs in his windows.

One Ridge Gardens condo owner, Karen Levi of Mahwah, N.J., said she was hit with an attorneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bill for speaking up. She wrote a letter saying that the home-ownersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s president had no right to serve in that post because, she said, he no longer owned a unit in the complex.

In response, the associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lawyer billed her $290 for his time for reviewing her letter, she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He had no right to send me a bill because I did not contract with him for any services,â&#x20AC;? said Levi. When she complained to the attorney ethics board, she said, the attorney withdrew the bill. The management company for Ridge Gardens declined to comment, and the lawyer did not return calls seeking comment.

Arseneau and her father, Don, who owns her unit, say they have wanted to have a sump pump installed since the basement leaked during last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hurricane. They need permission from the homeownersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; association to have it installed because it involves work outside the unit.

But the president of the association hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t responded to her calls and requests, Nicole Arseneau said. The president could not be reached for comment.

Conover, the real estate agent who lives in the Mahwah townhouse community, said she was unhappy with the overgrown and unhealthy trees and shrubs around her deck, which she said led to the growth of mold and moss.

She said she offered to trim the trees and replace the shrubs at her own expense.

When there was no response, she went ahead and had some shrubs removed, she said.

Now, sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been told that she must pay for new shrubs, but they will be chosen by the management company.

She is balking.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Right now, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re at a standstill,â&#x20AC;? she said.

Wilkin, whose company manages Conoverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s townhouse community, said that while he wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t familiar with the details of Conoverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s situation, landscaping decisions are generally made by the association, not individual homeowners.

And he said the management company just carries out the associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rules. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The landscaping is controlled by the association,â&#x20AC;?

Wilkin said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When you live in a community, there has to be some semblance of order.â&#x20AC;?

Marie Rubino, who lives in a large carriage-style townhouse in the 17-year-old Radcliffe Village community of Wayne, N.J., also has a complaint about landscaping. The slope in front of her house contains more than 30 small plants, of which at least half a dozen are dead. She said that the slope, which is owned by the community, has been replanted a number of times, but the plants always die. She said a landscaper told her the slope needs to be terraced if plants are to survive.

For Rubino, the dead shrubs are a symbol of unfairness.

She and her husband pay the same monthly maintenance â&#x20AC;&#x201D; more than $300 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; that the neighbors pay, but in her view,

they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get the same quality of landscaping in front of their home. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We should all be treated equally,â&#x20AC;? Rubino said.

The homeownersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; association asked Rubino to water the new shrubs after theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re planted, but Rubino said sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not willing to do that â&#x20AC;&#x201D; partly because she not always there to do it (she has a shore house) and partly because she moved out of a single-family house so she wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to do yard work.

Joel Bacher, president of the homeownersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; association at Radcliffe Village, said Rubinoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s being unreasonable. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s responsible for making (the slope) look nice, and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been attempting to do that, but sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been fighting us on this,â&#x20AC;? Bacher said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If she doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t water, then nothing we put there will work.â&#x20AC;?

He said the association canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afford to have the slope terraced, as Rubino wants. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got a budget, and we have a lot of different competing interests for those limited dollars,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Divaroo

Soda

Continued from G1 “It’s a great tool for communication and custody,” said White, of Prineville. “Everything is time-stamped and dated for court purposes. You get the clear communication and documentation that you need.”

When parents sign up for Divaroo, they invite the coparent, she said. Email notifications are sent to the coparent when one parent adds something to Divaroo.

Josh White, Lynn White’s husband and a freelance web developer, created the Divaroo software and site. Unlike Google Calendar or Google Docs, he said, Divaroo is an all-in-one site with security.

“On Divaroo, one person can create the event and the other can confirm that they read it,” he said, “but they can’t delete or change it.”

While the Whites have confidence in the concept, figuring out how to make money and build a customer base have been a challenge.

Dino Vendetti, a partner in venture capital firm Formative Ventures in Menlo Park, Calif., said the key to making a profit for Internet service companies like Divaroo is to work with enough target customers to learn what experience and services customers want, and how to deliver that in a useful way.

“It’s not one of those things where you come up with your general plan, roll it out one day and it’s perfect,” he said.

“The way these plans work is you come up with your best hypotheses of what your target market wants, you launch your site, get a bunch of feedback and measure how your users engage with the site.”

The Whites have been doing just that over the last four months.

Since the site launched in April, Lynn White said, it’s undergone several revisions.

Feedback from users led the couple to add more features.

Skip Newberry, president of the Technology Association of Oregon, said starting a business online can be a cost effective way to test the market. He said more businesses are utilizing the Internet to either start or supplement their business.

“There’s more and more tools available to small-business owners that empower them to reach a large audience through the Internet,” Newberry said. “That suite of tools doesn’t require a high level of sophistication on the part of the business owner because things are simpler and more plug-and-play when they make the decision to move to an online presence.”

The challenge is making people aware of the product and service offered, Newberry said.

“It goes back to where are the people and how do you get it in front of them?” he said.

Brick-and-mortar stores with an online presence are going where the people are, and that’s social networks, Newberry said.

“There’s a different approach to marketing and advertising there,” he said. “The model is constantly evolving, and it’s a challenge for those smaller businesses to keep up.”

The Whites continue to revise their marketing strategy.

The couple has about 100 customers and hopes to get the word out so they can grow.

“I’ve made tons of websites and given them to clients,” Josh White said. “But the hard part is getting the website in front of people — the right people. You can put an ad on Google and get 1,000 clicks a day. The question is, what is the value of those clicks?”

The couple’s latest change: revising their pricing model.

They considered placing ads on the website to bring in revenue, or lowering the price to attract more users. But they took a different route and changed the pricing. Instead of offering a limited number of features for free and providing all to paying customers, Divaroo now costs $10 a month for all features, with the first three months free.

Yearly and lifetime memberships are also available.

“We’re still trying to work out the kinks,” Lynn White said. “We do have a very valuable niche going on, but we need to promote why it’s beneficial.”

Continued from G1 That, coupled with the growing variety of flavored waters and sports drinks, has sent per capita soda consumption down 17 percent to about 1.3 cans a day since its peak in 1998, according to Beverage Digest, an industry tracker.

In New York City, a ban on the sale of sugary drinks bigger than 16 ounces in restaurants, theaters and stadiums could take effect as early as March.

The mayor of Cambridge, Mass., proposed a similar ban last month. And in Richmond, Calif., voters will decide in November whether to pass the nation’s first penny-per-ounce tax on soda and other sugary drinks such as fruit juices and teas.

All the negative publicity has some once-faithful soda drinkers cutting back.

Krista Koster, a 29-yearold who lives in Washington D.C., used to down about two cans of soda a day. Now she’s trying to kick the habit and be more conscious about what she drinks.

“I’ve just been hearing how bad soda is,” said Koster, who works in public relations. “You start considering a lot of the ingredients, whether it’s fake sugar or the real sugar.”

High-fructose corn syrup, the cheap sweetener that’s used in most sodas, has the same nutritional value and taste of sugar. A can of regular soda typically has about 40 grams of high-fructose corn syrup and 140 calories. By comparison, the same amount of apple juice has about 38 grams of sugar and 165 calories, but companies can tout the vitamins and other nutrients juice provides.

Aspartame, the artificial sweetener commonly used in drinks such as Diet Coke and Diet Pepsi, doesn’t have any calories.

But some drinkers worry about the fact that the sweeteners are not naturally occurring in nature.

Public perception has been colored by past studies that have suggested it caused cancer and brain tumors in rats even though The American Cancer Society says there’s no evidence showing it has any link with an increased risk for cancer in adults.

Wanting a ‘sweetener breakthrough’ The concerns have led soft drink companies to search for natural, zerocalorie sweeteners, including stevia, which is derived from a South American shrub. Natural sweeteners have neither the calories of sugar nor the negative associations of artificial sweeteners. The trick, however, is figuring out how to make them taste good in colas.

“Every sweetener has its own notes that need to be mixed with other flavors,” said Mehmood Khan, chief science officer for PepsiCo. “It’s a bit like an orchestra playing music, as opposed to one instrument.”

So far, stevia is the natural sweetener that has gotten the most attention and is already used in CocaCola and PepsiCo products, including orange juice and bottled teas. But it’s proving more difficult to hide the aftertaste in colas.

Soft drink makers are testing different extracts from the stevia plant that they hope will be easier to blend. They’re also scouring the world for other naturally occurring sweeteners, such as one called mogroside that is extracted from monk fruit and a derivative of a berry called miracle fruit.

Coca-Cola, based in Atlanta, says it’s currently testing additional drinks that use stevia and other natural sweeteners but declined to give details. The tests are part of the ongoing “home-use tests” the company conducts, in which consumers may be given a six-pack of a new product to try over the course of a week.

To accelerate the pace of such trials, Coca-Cola two years ago dedicated a production line at one of its plants solely to churning out test beverages. But

Test Continued from G1 Soft drink makers have a long way to go.

On tap for the taste test were: • Pepsi Next, which has about half the calories of regular Pepsi at 60 calories per can.

• 10-calorie versions of Dr Pepper’s Sunkist and A&W Root Beer, which are supposed to have a fuller taste than their zero-calorie, diet counterparts.

• Coca-Cola’s Sprite Select and Fanta Select, which are made with natural sweeteners and have 70 calories a can, versus about 140 and 160 for regular Sprite and Fanta, respectively.

Only Pepsi Next, which hit shelves in March, is available nationally. The rest are still being tested in select markets.

When it comes to mimicking the original, Pepsi Next generally fared the best. As with most regular sodas, Pepsi is sweetened with high-fructose corn syrup, which has the same nutritional value as sugar. Pepsi Next reduces the amount of high-fructose corn syrup — and calories — and replaces it with artificial sweeteners like aspartame that are used in traditional diet sodas.

But the similarities between Pepsi Next and Pepsi were a problem for some testers. Stephanie Klose, a food blogger for Serious Eats, said both tasted fake and overly sweet.

“Pepsi is an overly sweet soda, so the whole brand colors the taste,” said North Landesman, a middle school history teacher and self-proclaimed soda aficionado. “It’s so sweet that the first sip is always really good. But the more you drink, the worse it tastes.”

In a statement, Pepsi noted it has tested Next extensively and that its research shows that the drink “meets or exceeds taste expectations.”

Another opinion was unanimous among the taste testers: nobody liked Fanta — either the regular or the mid-calorie version made with stevia, a zero-calorie sweetener that comes from a South American plant.

Will Carlough, who is loyal to regular Coke, grimaced after taking sips of each.

taste isn’t the only consideration for the world’s biggest soda maker.

“Some of the very exciting (sweeteners) we’re playing with are really small in terms of production and planting, and they need to be nurtured,” says Katie Bayne, president of Coca-Cola’s North American soda business.

Coca-Cola also is testing versions of its Sprite and Fanta that use stevia in Atlanta, Detroit, Louisville, Ky. and Memphis, Tenn. The drinks have about half the calories of regular Sprite and Fanta (70 per can, instead of 140 or 160, respectively). But the “Select” drinks fall short of the ideal because they have sugar.

PepsiCo, based in Purchase, N.Y., is also on the hunt for new drinks that use natural, no-calorie sweeteners. In 2010, the company entered a $62 million, four-year deal with food flavor company Senomyx Inc. to develop natural sweeteners and “taste enhancers” that can intensify sweetness.

Coca-Cola also previously had an eight-year contract with Senomyx; neither of the partnerships has yet produced any products for commercial use.

Dr Pepper Snapple Group, the nation’s third-largest soda maker, also is searching for the right combination. The company’s line of flavored sodas, such as Sunkist and A&W Root Beer, may make it easier to mask the taste of natural sweeteners like stevia than with colas.

At a beverage industry conference earlier this year, Dr Pepper’s Chief Financial Officer Marty Ellen said he thinks a “sweetener breakthrough” is achievable in the next few years.

Recreating the exact taste of extremely valuable brands such as Coke and Pepsi is a high-stakes game and companies don’t want to rush any drinks to the market. But making a natural cola that doesn’t have any calories isn’t impossible. Smaller companies such as Zevia, based in Culver City, Calif., already make such colas using stevia.

Bebeto Matthews / The Associated Press

Bruce Bozzi, executive vice president of Palm Restaurant Group, participates in a soda taste test. The Coca-Cola Co., PepsiCo Inc. and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc. have worked to come up with sodas that have fewer calories but still taste good to consumers.

“I can’t tell the difference,” said Carlough, a 34-year old programmer at social media site Meetup.com.

Sprite Select, which is also made with stevia, also was deemed too fake. The “weird” aftertaste gave it away immediately from the original Sprite, which the panel loved.

“It tasted like a dissolving packet of aspartame,” Klose, the food blogger, said.

Landesman, the teacher, compared Sprite Select to an open can of regular Sprite that had been sitting in the fridge for four days. “I would rather drink tap water than this,” he said.

Bozzi, a diet soda loyalist, didn’t like Sprite Select either and said he wouldn’t drink it again. Still, he said he’d be willing to sacrifice taste for the right drink made with a natural sweetener and no calories. Bozzi, who is the great grandson of one of The Palm’s co-founders, just hasn’t found the right one yet.

The Coca-Cola Co., which has previously noted that the Selects are only being tested in four cities to gauge demand, declined to comment.

Zevia is now sold in 10,500 locations — including Kroger and Whole Foods — up from just 850 locations four years ago. CEO Paddy Spence doesn’t think Coke and Pepsi’s efforts to come up with their own zero-calorie drinks will threaten his company.

“When consumers see a brand all of a sudden with different positioning, they see right through that,” Spence said. “They’ll say ‘you’re a sugar

As for Sunkist and A&W Root Beer, the majority of the panel detected a slightly more syrupy and thick taste in the 10-calorie versions, which use a mix of high-fructose corn syrup and artificial sweeteners. They said the original Sunkist had a lighter more citrusy taste.

Dr Pepper said in a statement that it is hearing positive feedback on trials of its other 10-calorie drinks. The company also said that its Dr Pepper Ten drink, which was launched last year and uses the same sweetener formula, helped drive its sales volume up 1 percent in the second quarter.

“This shows that we are hitting the mark with consumers who want a full taste experience in a low-calorie drink,” the company said.

Nicole Evatt, an entertainment producer for the AP who regularly drinks diet sodas, may be among the new customers. After several thoughtful sips of the two Sunkist drinks, she gave up on trying to determine which was which.

“I have no idea,” she said.

soda company that has a couple different stevia products.’”

Still, considering their enormous resources, it’s likely that soda companies will eventually find a way to make natural drinks with no calories that taste good, says Mike Jacobson of the Center for Science in the Public Interest.

“If you look 10 years ahead, we’re going to see a different marketplace for sodas,” he said.

Innovations snuffed out by Craigslist

DeMenthon with a lawsuit accusing his site, Padmapper, of infringing on copyright and trademark, and it threw in a long list of other piracy-related claims for good measure.

But, according to DeMenthon, he isn’t stealing anything.

“I was kind of disappointed.

I was always a great admirer of what Craigslist was doing,” he said by phone from his twobedroom apartment in Mountain View, Calif., where he works on the site from noon until 3 a.m. daily as the only fulltime employee. “I’m just trying to help people save time.”

This isn’t the first time Craigslist has claimed such violations. The Internet is littered with digital carcasses that once built on top of the listings site.

Their pixelated tombstones are inscribed with one-liners that Craigslist killed access without any notice, or they were sent a cease-and-desist letter by Perkins Coie, a top-notch corporate law firm that frequently represents Craigslist.

One, a site called Craigs Little Buddy, could search multiple Craigslist cities at once — a

simple feature that Craigslist doesn’t offer. Another site, Craigsly, helped people set up email alerts when a certain type of listing, like a specific car or apartment for sale, was posted in their area. Another, Ziink Craigslist Helper, which offered a free browser plug-in that made navigating listings easier, was also shut down by Craigslist lawyers.

Most of the sites that Craigslist killed began as hobby projects, making little to no money — just programmers trying to make a product they loved, better.

Craigslist and its chief executive, Jim Buckmaster, did not return repeated requests for comment.

Yet something doesn’t add up in all this. In July 2010, on the question-and-answer site Quora, Newmark defended the company’s actions in a similar situation to Padmapper, saying he did not take issue with sites that do not affect Craigslist’s servers. “Actually, we take issue with only services which consume a lot of bandwidth, it’s that simple,” Newmark wrote.

But Padmapper does not siphon off a bit of bandwidth from Craigslist. Instead, it uses a company called 3Taps, which collects listings from Craigslist by looking for them on search engines, including Google and Bing, then organizing them and wrapping them up in an application programing interface, or API, so developers can build sites that point to Craigslist’s listings.

“The listings are already out there, we’re finding them already on the Web and organizing them so other people don’t have to do the same thing twice,” said Greg Kidd, the chief executive of 3Taps. “And, we’re not breaking any laws because we are pulling in the facts from the listing; everyone knows you can’t copyright facts.” Craigslist also named 3Taps in the lawsuit filed last week.

As intellectual property lawyers will tell you, Kidd is not off base: facts, like those in classified listings, cannot be copyrighted.

So why hasn’t anyone managed to unseat Craigslist, a site that has barely changed in close to two decades?

It has dug an effective moat by cultivating an exaggerated image of “doing good” that keeps its customers loyal, while behind the scenes, it bullies any rivals that come near and it stifles innovation.

Kidd explained: “Where there is dominance in an exchange place, like a classified platform such as Craigslist, the importance is not in the listings posted on the site — those are just facts — but rather the critical mass of connecting people.”

mer out a standard privacy policy by the end of the year, but schisms remain. One thing that most agree upon is that making “do not track” a default setting will not be part of their final recommendations.

Microsoft’s proposed default setting bucks slowly building momentum for an “opt-out” solution.

“It seems clear to me that the Microsoft position, while it may be more protective of consumer privacy, is not a consensus position within the industry,” said Federal Trade Commission Chairman Jon Leibowitz.

“Do not track” follows the trail blazed by “do not call,” the 2003 federal law that empowered the FTC to create a national registry for consumers to opt out of unsolicited telemarketing calls. The FTC is calling on the digital industry to take a number of online privacy measures, including a “do not track” option.

“The marketplace needs to decide this, and we’re letting them,” Leibowitz said. “We have not proffered a proposal, other than calling for a ‘do not track’ option that would be an opt out with limits on collection, with certain exceptions.”

Efforts to develop an online

privacy standard have failed to keep pace with the technology itself, which has fueled explosive growth in tracking and targeting Web users with “interest-based” advertising.

A report issued in June by Krux Digital showed data collection was up 400 percent year over year, with an average of 50 collection events per page view. Much of that growth comes from online media exchanges, which use real-time bidding platforms to sell targeted ads to individual Web users. Real-time bidding, a segment that barely existed three years ago, is on pace to represent more than a quarter of all U.S. digital display advertising spending by 2015, said Gordon McLeod, president of Krux, a 2-year-old data management company.

Targeted advertising commands a higher price and, some would argue, provides a more satisfying experience for consumers, who receive product offers they might actually be interested in.

“What a consumer benefits from with having their behavior followed is having things that are relevant to them coming up in their advertising experience,” said Jason Wadler, executive vice presi-

dent of Evanston, Ill.-based Leapfrog Online, a direct response marketing company. “If you don’t have the ability to target an individual or target a consumer segment, then you are going to see just a whole bunch of random ads that you don’t care about, and that’s not a good experience.”

Tracking has nonetheless raised concern among privacy advocates and regulators that perhaps too much information is being shared without consumer consent.

“This is how we buy our financial products, this is how we search health information, this is how our kids contact their friends,” said Jeffrey Chester, a member of the industry group studying the issue and executive director of the Center for Digital Democracy, which focuses on consumer protection and privacy issues. “Companies are able to identify you by race, by income, by health concerns. There’s a lot of sensitive data out there that an individual should have more control of. Right now, an individual has no control.”

In 1995, a good-hearted programmer named Craig Newmark thought of a way to make newspaper classified ad listings simple, and in turn, people’s lives easier. His free website, called Craigslist, quickly gained millions of users. Eye-popping offers to buy the company outright came in, all of which Newmark turned down, saying Craigslist was a “public good.”

Craigslist makes hundreds of millions of dollars a year, but it has become stagnant. Today, it feels stuck in the 1990s, where links are electric blue and everything is underlined.

As a result, the site is now crammed with listings and is extremely difficult to use.

One might think Craigslist is as ready for disruption as sleepy newspaper classified ad sections once were. Why hasn’t a site this vulnerable been displaced?

There may be part of the answer in this tale. Eric DeMenthon, a 27-year-old programmer, was one of the users overwhelmed by the site.

In 2008, he was searching for an apartment on Craigslist and he couldn’t navigate the endless listings. So he quickly built an application that placed Craigslist apartment ads on an online map. After finding an apartment with the tool he had cobbled together, he realized the product had saved him so much time that he should make it available to others, also as a “public good.”

He said, “I did the math and I figure if I save people three hours of their time on my site when they need to look for a new apartment, that’s over 350 years of time that I can save people each month.”

Last week, Craigslist served

Track Continued from G1 The move puts Microsoft out in front of a process to set new Internet privacy standards and puts it at odds with the $31 billion online advertising industry.

“Targeted advertising sells for 2½ times as much as nontargeted advertising. It’s very effective,” said Mike Zaneis, senior vice president and general counsel for the Interactive Advertising Bureau. “When a browser like Microsoft comes in and sets (do not track) by default, they just gave everybody a 60 percent off coupon for our product. We can’t survive in that world.”

Facing increasing pressure to get ahead of potentially more restrictive legislation, the industry has been struggling to reach consensus for an online privacy standard.

In 2011, the World Wide Web Consortium, which sets Internet protocols, put together a working group consisting of companies, privacy advocates and experts that met for the fifth time in June at Microsoft Corp.’s headquarters in Bellevue, Wash.

Some participants said the group should be able to ham-

lows a June audit from the Oregon Secretary of State, which found more training is needed to fill the growing number of “middle-skill” jobs, like bookkeepers, accounting clerks and preschool teachers.

Some of the greatest demand in Central Oregon is for welders, plumbers and mechanics, said Greg Lambert, founder of employment agency Mid Oregon Personnel.

Many of the area’s mechanics are aging, Lambert said, and there aren’t enough younger workers training for the field. Others have been out of work for years, victims of the housing market crash and a drop-off in demand for repair services. A worker’s skills tend to diminish the longer he or she is unemployed.

“That’s a huge issue, which I see all the time,” Lambert said.

Deschutes County’s unemployment rate was 10.5 percent in June, according to Oregon Employment Department figures. The rate has remained in double digits for 44 straight months.

Jefferson County’s June unemployment rate was 11 percent, while Crook County’s was 12.8 percent.

The solution to the skill mismatch problem is several fold, Krumenauer said.

Employers can follow in Central Oregon Truck Co.’s footsteps, by boosting advertising and recruitment efforts.

They can offer more on-thejob training for workers.

But community colleges and universities offer perhaps the best chance to give workers the tools needed for longterm employment, Krumenauer said. Enrollment at Central Oregon Community College boomed after the start of the Great Recession, though that pace has slowed a bit in the last year.

Efforts to establish a fouryear branch of Oregon State University in Bend would expand Central Oregon’s job training resources, she said.

Central Oregon Community College is rolling out a series of new programs over the next few years, said Vice President for Instruction Karin Hilgersom, including veterinary technician and entrepreneurial courses.

They’re in preliminary talks to start a program that would train people to manufacture unmanned aerial vehicles.

The school has also had discussions about a trucking program, Hilgersom said. But with limited resources and a drop-off in state funds for higher education, truck driver courses would likely be years away.

“There has to be a balance between what a student should expect to gain from a degree, what each industry needs and fiscally, whether the college can launch a program so that there’s a return on the investment,” Hilgersom said. “We really don’t want to spend $500,000 to start a program that’s only going to get five people jobs.”

Continued from G1 Every day Williams is short of workers, he’s losing business.

In Central Oregon, “there’s just not enough people with the skills we need as an overthe-road truck driving business,” Williams said. So his company, which will soon move to Redmond, spends $10,000 to $15,000 a month on advertisements, across the country, looking for qualified drivers.

Trucking isn’t the only sector in Oregon where employers are having trouble finding skilled workers.

Employers in fields like nursing, physical therapy, auto repair and engineering are hard pressed to fill openings in the state, the report said.

“It is a little bit surprising on the surface, when you think that there’s more than 100,000 unemployed (Oregonians) and 30,000 job vacancies,” said Gail Krumenauer, an employment economist with the Employment Department and one of the report’s authors. “But when you think about all the different factors in many of those openings, the minimum education and experience requirements for fields like nursing, those skills aren’t easily transferred” from another line of work.

Almost all of the jobs going unfilled require post-high school education.

While 83 percent of Oregon adults have high school diplomas, just 55 percent have an associate degree or higher, according to 2010 U.S. Census data, Some high-tech companies, like Bend-based RBD Instruments, struggle to find workers with the right skill sets.

RBD Instruments makes surface analysis devices. They help researchers and manufacturers analyze layers of atoms on various surfaces.

It’s an important engineering tool for the development of aircraft, biomedical, solar and other devices.

Company President and CEO Randy Dellwo hired a new employee earlier this year, bringing his workforce to 13.

And he’d like to keep adding workers. Finding qualified employees has long been a challenge, though.

The Employment Department report noted 74 engineering jobs that went unfilled for two months or longer last fall.

“For companies like ours, we need people with electronics skills and physics or chemistry backgrounds,” Dellwo said. “Those are hard to find, not just in Central Oregon but nationally.”

It isn’t just advanced fields like engineering where employers are struggling to find qualified workers.

More than 100 open positions for mechanics, installation and repair workers went unfilled for two months of longer last fall, the Employment Department report showed.

Scion iQ short on street smarts, but feels roomy for a small car

Locate mystery noises with listening device

By Paul Brand Star Tribune (Minneapolis)

By Peter Couture and Lyra Solochek Tampa Bay Times

With a name that playfully tweaks a tiny rival, Scion’s micro subcompact iQ will turn heads for its contemporary styling and its size — or the lack thereof. The twodoor hatchback resembles a Pixar Cars character, but what about its character as a car?

The iQ has large, wideset headlights and a narrow black-plastic grille that looks as if it were drawn on; a slight bump of a nose REVIEW with a large Scion badge completes the look.

Our tester’s Hot Lava paint is one of the nicer orange hues we’ve seen. It’s bright and noticeable, and in a car this size you need to be seen. The hatch window dominates the rear of the abbreviated car, with curved wraparound glass that adds a contemporary look.

This is not a car made for highway driving. We had separate experiences, however; Peter felt safe enough in the car; Lyra did not.

Either way, the iQ is a city car, not one made for long commutes. Around town, the 1.3-liter, 94-horsepower (!) four-cylinder with Continuously Variable Transmission offers adequate performance, but the engine and CVT are noisy, especially under anything resembling hard acceleration.

You will feel every bump in the road. With hardly any visible rear bumper and its low stance, Lyra feels rear passengers might not fare too well if the car is rear-ended.

There is one area in which the iQ is a big player: the parking

A:

The New York Times

The subcompact 2012 Scion iQ has a 1.3-liter 16-valve, 4-cylinder engine and almost seats four in near comfort. The 120.1-inch car shines in the parking lot, however – it can easily share a standard parking space with a scooter or motorcycle.

Scion iQ Base price: $15,995 As tested: $19,671 Type: Front-engine, frontwheel drive subcompact hatchback Engine: 1.3-liter 94horsepower inline 4-cylinder, Continuosly Variable Transmission Mileage: 36 mpg city, 37 mpg highway

lot. The 120.1-inch car can easily share a standard parking space with a scooter or motorcycle (yes, we tried it), and its turning radius is one of the smallest we’ve tested, outside of a child’s tricycle.

The iQ feels roomy enough inside, with plenty of legroom

Stick-shift vehicles make a comeback

By Jerry Hirsch The Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — Cars with manual transmissions are making a modest comeback, but with tens of millions of drivers lacking the ability to operate a stick shift, analysts don’t expect a big jump.

Auto Information company Edmunds.com says that vehicles equipped with manual transmissions accounted for 7 percent of auto sales so far this year. That compares to a 3.9 percent share of sales in all of 2011.

If the trend holds, the manual transmission share of auto sales will be the highest since 2006.

“A combination of factors — from the growing age of vehicle trade-ins bringing more manual drivers back to market, to a greater proportion of smaller cars on the road — is creating a small spike for stick shifts,” said Ivan Drury, an Edmunds.com analyst. “But even though manual cars are on the rise now, they’re on track to be virtually extinct in the next 15 to 20 years.”

Automakers are offering fewer vehicles that have a manual transmission as an option. Edmunds.com found that 64 percent of all 2012 model year vehicles are available only with automatic transmission. Ten years ago, the number was only 48 percent.

Technology and pricing trends have ended some of the traditional advantages that manual transmissions had over automatics.

At one time, manual transmissions always achieved better fuel economy, but with the advent of six- and eight-speed automatic transmissions, that’s no longer a sure bet.

Edmunds points out that the automatic version of the Ford Focus has better fuel economy than its manual sibling.

Similarly, a car with a manual transmission once was always less expensive than the same model in an automatic.

Several General Motors vehicles, including the popular Chevrolet Cruze and the Cadillac CTS, now cost the same for both versions, according to Edmunds.com.

BMW dealers to rent cars

By Mickey Meece New York Times News Service

BMW expects the road to ownership will be paved with short-term car rentals.

The automaker is inviting customers in select markets in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut to rent its 328i sedan by the hour, day or week, starting Aug. 13, through a pilot program called BMW on Demand.

At the outset, 12 dealerships in the New York area will participate, and 100 of the 328i sedans, equipped with a technology package that includes a navigation system, will be rotated based on demand, according to Ed Robinson,

ing noise along with a tapping noise upon a cold start.

I removed the serpentine belt and started the engine, and the same thing happens.

When the engine is warm, the tapping noise is not noticeable but the screech noise is less but still noticeable. The tapping is probably the exhaust manifold leaking. Is the combination a result of a bad exhaust manifold, or would the screech be something else?

You didn’t mention whether the engine still runs well, delivering good performance and fuel economy. If so, I don’t see how this screeching noise could be a potentially catastrophic metal-on-metal scenario. You’ve taken the correct first step — start and run the engine for a few moments with the serpentine belt removed. This eliminates the A/C compressor, alternator, water pump, power steering pump and any other belt-driven ancillaries as the culprit.

The tapping noise may be a leaking exhaust manifold, as you suspect, or a loose spark plug, but my Alldata automotive database describes a loud tapping noise in this engine because of a stuck or collapsed hydraulic valve lifter.

Use a mechanic’s stethoscope — or a long wooden or metal rod — to try to locate the noise. I’d get to the bottom of these noises before putting too many more miles on the vehicle.

president of BMW Financial Services.

Other BMW models may be added to the mix. After registering, customers would be directed to a website, Bmwon demandusa.com. Unlike other car-sharing programs, there is no membership fee. Cars are picked up and dropped off at dealerships.

The company, which introduced BMW on Demand first in its home market of Munich two years ago, is looking for customers who are willing to pay a premium for a luxury car, because they know they do not have to pay for insurance, maintenance, gas or parking, Robinson said.

and decent headroom up front, although Peter did feel the driver’s seat sat too high for taller folks. Scion managed to squeeze in rear seats to make this a four-seater, but to carve out that space, there were compromises.

For example, to give the rear passenger any semblance of legroom, the front passenger has to slide the seat far forward. So Scion (Toyota) eliminated the glove box for more space. In its place, you get a flimsy plastic drawer under the passenger seat, which is difficult to get to for the driver.

You have to be a compact contortionist to get into the rear seats. Anyone other than a small child is not going to be comfortable. With the rear seat backs up, there’s

only a sliver of storage space.

To fold the backs down, you have to remove the headrests first. Peter packed in a week’s worth of groceries with the back down. For such a little car, there is a large — and somewhat cumbersome — center media touchscreen.

And there is no secure place to put your electronic gadgets.

If the world were a parking lot, then the Scion iQ would be its king. But alas, it’s not.

Its price can easily pass $16K, and there are plenty of larger small cars, including Toyota’s own Yaris, that offer more for the price.

Safety features: ABS, stability control, traction control and more. I just wish there was more protection in the back.

After every six to 10 Q : days of not driving my 2000 Buick LeSabre with 45,000 miles, the car will not start because of a dead

battery. I have had two new batteries within six months, two parasitic draw tests with acceptable limits and a new alternator installed.

I have removed the underhood and trunk lamps. The driver information readout indicates 14.4 to 14.9 volts battery voltage while driving the vehicle. I have invested more than $1,200 in repairs.

Can you suggest other troubleshooting?

Easiest fix: Start and run the engine for 20 minutes every few days.

Cheapest fix: Install an inexpensive battery master switch. Granted, shutting off the master switch after driving will lose all the various presets, but at least the car will start a week later.

With a fully charged good battery and normal electrical load, I’d expect to see voltage in the 13.5-to-14.5 range. The higher voltage may mean a bigger demand on the system, or some type of overcharging problem.

Typically, parasitic draw with everything turned off is less than 15 to 30 milliamps.

Draining a battery down to roughly 40 percent of its reserve capacity will result in a no-start scenario. Here’s the example from the Alldata database: “A vehicle with a 30-milliamp drain and a fully charged 70 RC battery will last 23 days. But if that battery is at only 65 percent of full charge (green dot barely visible), it is going to last only 15 days before causing a nostart.” If you drive every six to 10 days, the battery may not stay fully charged.

I like my easy fix, don’t you?

What to read, see, and do this week For more, go to Parade.com/picks LOVE STORIES AT THE MOVIES 1. 2 DAYS IN NEW YORK Chris Rock and Julie Delpy bring tart humor to their roles as a couple besieged by her bawdily eccentric French family, in town on a visit. Delpy also directed and cowrote this comedy, a sequel of sorts to 2007’s 2 Days in Paris. (Rated R) 2. HOPE SPRINGS Can this marriage be saved?

Kay (Meryl Streep) and Arnold (Tommy Lee Jones) have settled into a relationship that’s so quiet it’s nearly catatonic. What they learn during a week of intensive couples therapy is moving, funny, and most of all eye-opening. (Rated PG-13)

of inspired recipes from across the Web. For the campingaverse, we even uncovered a few that require no fire at all: Think s’mores waffles, peanut butter s’mores bars, and s’mores pie—to be enjoyed in the cool comfort of your bugfree living room.

50 YEARS AGO today, Marilyn Monroe was found dead at age 36 in her Brentwood, Calif., home—but the blond bombshell remains as fascinating as ever. Her legendary sex appeal is on display in two new retrospectives: Marilyn & Me, a portrait of the star’s final years by photographer Lawrence Schiller, and Marilyn in Fashion, which proves who really wrote the book on “iconic style.”

3. CELESTE AND JESSE FOREVER Parks and Recreation’s Rashida Jones (who cowrote) shines as a woman who’s deeply ambivalent about splitting from her husband (Andy Samberg, proving he has a future beyond Saturday Night Live). (Rated R)

CELEBRATE JULIA! Her name’s synonymous with French cooking, but in the biography Dearie, Bob Spitz says the word fun is what best describes Julia Child’s way with food. Born 100 years ago Aug. 15, she was PARADE’s food editor from 1982 to 1986; every Friday in August you can find a Julia classic at facebook .com/dashrecipes. Read a dishy excerpt from Dearie at Parade.com/julia.

READY FOR PRIME TIME Joshua Radin’s sensitive, folksy pop songs have helped set the mood on hit TV shows from Grey’s Anatomy to The Bachelorette. His new album, Underwater, delivers more charming, scene-stealing tunes—including “Tomorrow Is Gonna Be Better” and “The Greenest Grass”— sung with the intimacy of a whisper but drenched in soul.

e start with a riddle: four twentysomething pop singers, usually greeted by throngs of hyperventilating girls, pile out of a car and land face-to-face with a woman old enough to be their mother. How many seconds before they lose interest?

The typical young man would be scanning over my shoulder in the time it takes him to say, “Excuse me, ma’am.” These guys, however, belong to Nickelodeon’s boy band Big Time Rush, and their behavior would make any mom proud. They have no idea yet that I’ll be interviewing them, but they smile and extend hands. They politely ask if they’re in the right parking lot in Columbus, Ohio. When it’s clear we’re all in the wrong place, they chat about the two dogs that have joined them for their 60-plus-city concert tour.

James Maslow, 22, unzips a cat-size carrier to reveal Fox, a 1-year-old Alaskan Klee Kai. “I’ve always loved big dogs,” he says, shrugging his shoulders. “He’s a husky I put in a dryer.”

When asked if they like each other as much as it seems, they light up like fireflies. “Yeah,” says Logan. “We argue like brothers, but we love each other.”

Good thing. They’ve been virtually inseparable since 2009, after Nickelodeon cast them as a frolicking foursome that becomes a pop band and sings through life’s capers. The show’s creator, Scott Fellows, modeled the story line after the 1960s show The Monkees, though in this version, the squeaky-clean leads started as high school hockey players. But as with their TV predecessors, Big Time Rush have become an offscreen phenomenon, complete with hit records and countless girls whose knees buckle in syncopated swoons at the sight of them.

“This is not a new story. It started with Frank Sinatra and all those screaming bobby-soxers,” says pop culture critic Elayne Rapping, professor emerita of American Studies at the University at Buffalo. “You’d rather have girls attracted to the good boys like Big Time Rush.” Her laugh is full of mischief. “I was attracted to the bad boys. I loved the Rolling Stones.”

The Rolling Stones? One look at Mick Jagger and Mom banned him from our house. No matter. Being the mo dutiful child, I was oldest, most drawn to the good boys.

I was in first grade when the Beatles debuted on T Ed Sullivan Show The on Feb. 9, 1964. That night, I sat frog-legged in front of the TV, mesmerized. I’d just met my future hu husband. I was sure continued on page 10

A few steps away, Carlos Pena Jr., 22, furrows his brow as he coaxes his 2-year-old German shepherd, Sydney, out of her crate. Booties are strapped to her front feet. Carlos squats and looks into the dog’s eyes as he speaks.

“She burned her paws on the tarmac,” he says. “They said she’ll be fine, but she’s hurting right now.”

Kendall Schmidt, 21, and Logan Henderson, 22, join James in consoling the pooch. “You’ll be okay, Sydney.” “Good girl, Sydney.” “Aw, poor Sydney.”

A cynic would say this is just part of Big Time Rush’s happy act. A cynic would be wrong.

Over the next four hours, these band members mix it up with dozens of strangers during a photo shoot for PARADE at Grandview Heights High School. They never complain or swear, never throw a fit. They are a frenetic bundle of inside jokes and gentle ribbing, relying on each other to get through all the leaping, dancing, and running in polyester school jackets required

Of course, millions of girls just like me were planning their own nuptials to John, Paul, George, or Ringo.

But it’s the music that really weds us to our memories. I cannot hear “Penny Lane” without thinking of the barbershop I passed on my way to West Elementary School. I listen to Paul McCartney sing “Michelle” and remember whining to Mom, “Constance? You had to name me Constance?”

her orbit. She was a moody 12-year-old hiding behind a block of bangs and the slams of a bedroom door, but there was one way to coax her out.

“Hey, honey?” I’d say innocently.

“How ’bout playing ‘I Want It That Way’?” She’d slide the CD into the living room stereo, and we’d sing along softly together. “ ‘Yeah, you are my fire …’ ” When Nickelodeon created a boy band for a new generation, they selected their Fab Four from among thousands of hopefuls. It was the band members themselves who came up with the name Big Time Rush, or BTR to fans. (“They had Go Big Time,” Logan says, “but we couldn’t stand it.”)

Manner Up! Modern etiquette made easy

Q: A certain coworker clips her fingernails during the workday in our communal space. We find this unprofessional but aren’t comfortable approaching her directly.

What do you suggest?

—Name withheld

A: Unprofessional? How about gross? Before she moves on to flossing her teeth and trimming her nose hairs, ask your supervisor to issue a companywide directive: Anything more than, say, touching up makeup is considered personal grooming and should be done at home. That way, no one will have to approach her about this issue, and Ms. Clippy won’t feel singled out for her unfortunate habit. —Judith Newman

Big Time Rush | from page 10

the official series premiere on Jan. 18, 2010, catapulting the show into Nickelodeon’s ratings stratosphere. Both of the band’s albums, BTR in 2010 and Elevate in 2011, debuted in Billboard ’s Top 15. A theme in all the music: Every girl is beautiful and can break a cute guy’s heart.

Not all TV critics have been kind, but the members of BTR have a sense of humor about who and what they are: grown men pretending to be teenagers in a band born for TV. The show requires them to be over-the-top silly, but they’re serious about their music; like prefab boy bands before

The OTHER BOYS OF SUMMER

ONE DIRECTION

Though they were runners-up in our poll, this British import has been dubbed the second coming of the Beatles.

“To be even mentioned in the same sentence is incredibly humbling,” says Zayn Malik. The group

them, they’re learning to exercise creative control. They cowrote eight of the songs on Elevate.

If you want to get to know the guys of BTR, do not ask about dating; past missteps have made them fiercely protective of their girlfriends’ privacy. But ask how they’re growing as artists and you’re in for an enthusiastic tutorial.

“The second time around we were like, ‘This is our band. We should be contributing to what it is,’ ” says James.

Kendall raises a foot and wiggles it. “We also decided, ‘Hey, we’re grown men. We can pick out our own shoes for the cover.’ ” Their concerts are ambitious and tightly choreographed. Their early days of small venues have grown into arenas packed with screaming girls, many as young as 6.

An entire generation is now weaving memories with BTR. The band knows this and treads gently, each member taking turns as group ambassador.

After one photo setup with

(from left, Niall Horan,18; Harry Styles, 18; Liam Payne, 18; Malik, 19; and Louis Tomlinson, 20) parlayed a third-place finish in 2010 on the U.K. version of The X Factor into a $50 million–plus business empire. With

their single “What Makes You Beautiful” a summer smash, the band is working on its second album, due in November. “We’re growing up and getting older,” says Niall, “so the lyrics will be reflective of that.” —Mary Margaret

more than a dozen Grandview Heights girls, James shakes the hand of each one, asks her name, and thanks her for agreeing to be an extra. Carlos makes small talk with them during a break. After each round of racing down a hallway, they check the mood of the girls, who can’t stop giggling.

“You okay?” “Sorry it’s so hot.”

“We really appreciate you being here today.”

They know what it feels like to be treated badly by someone they admire and don’t ever want to be the jerk who harpoons dreams.

“How many artists have you seen just walk away and act like it’s not important?” Kendall says.

Carlos nods. “I hate meeting my favorite bands because then it just ruins it.”

“Yeah,” James adds. “They act like they’re better, and nobody’s better than somebody else. By all means, we’re not perfect, but I think the least we can do for our fans is be nice.”

Often, they hear from girls who confess to being despondent but find hope in the music and antics of BTR. “It’s a little hard sometimes,” Kendall says. “To think that you could’ve affected somebody like that is difficult.

And for me it’s always a hard one when you see a girl cry.”

They focus on the upside of celebrity, Logan says. “For us to even say hi to someone, to change their day around or change something inside of them—that’s a pretty cool feeling.”

We’ve come to the end of the shoot. BTR’s publicist promises that lunch is waiting at the arena, where they’ll rehearse for hours.

This time, each young man gives middle-aged me a hug.

I leave hoping that fame never changes Kendall, Carlos, Logan, and James.

Ask Marilyn

By Marilyn vos Savant What’s more economical, turning off your airconditioning when you leave the house, or letting it run? —Nicole Boyle, Tucson

In general, you should set the thermostat a few degrees higher, turn the fan on “auto,” and let the unit run.

Will a ceiling fan reduce my air-conditioning bill?

—Lucee Farrow, Biloxi, Miss.

Only if the cooling breeze allows you to set your thermostat higher. Otherwise, a fan will increase your bill: You’ll pay for the energy to run the motor, and the motor itself will add some heat to the air.

Also, be sure to turn off the ceiling fan when you leave the room. You don’t want to pay to fan the furniture!

Sherri’s Tips

Chicken Divine P “Pair this dish

Actress Sherri Shepherd, winner of a Daytime Emmy for The View and costar of the upcoming Lifetime movie Abducted: The Carlina White Story, whips up this dish for movie nights with friends

cle

My girlfriends and I are always so busy, with the demands of kids, husbands, and life in general, that we decided to set aside a regular girls’ night. We pull the couch away from the wall, grab all available chairs and some wine, and watch a movie. If someone brings tissues, I know we’ll be watching The Notebook. For a great night of laughter, My Cousin Vinny or Tootsie will do just fine.

We end the evening with a delicious dinner. I like to make a nice, simple chicken divan. My friends pitch in; cooking together is one way we bond.

I also sometimes get into the kitchen and make this dish for my husband, Lamar, and my son, Jeffrey, who is 7. I like to remind them: Mama can throw down, too.

P “You can substitute 2% or whole milk for the heavy cream if you want a lighter dish.”

Chicken Divan 1 large bunch broccoli, trimmed and cut into 4-inch-long spears 1 ⁄2 stick (1⁄4 cup) unsalted butter, diced 5 Tbsp all-purpose flour 2 cups chicken broth 1 ⁄2 cup well-chilled heavy cream 3 Tbsp medium-dry sherry Fresh lemon juice 1 ⁄2 tsp salt 1 ⁄4 tsp pepper 1 ⁄2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese 2 whole boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 11⁄2 lb total), cooked and sliced thin

1. In a large saucepan of boiling, salted water, cook broccoli for 6 to 8 minutes or until tender. Drain and set aside, covered.

2. In a heavy saucepan, melt butter over low heat. Add flour and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes.

Add broth and bring mixture to a boil. Cook on low, stirring, for 10 minutes or until thick.

3. In a mixing bowl, beat cream with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form, then add to flour mixture, along with sherry and lemon juice to taste. Season

with salt and pepper.

4. Arrange broccoli on a flameproof platter. Top with half the sauce. Stir ¼ cup Parmesan into other half of sauce. Arrange chicken on broccoli, pour remaining sauce over top, and sprinkle mixture with remaining ¼ cup Parmesan.

5. Broil, about 6 inches from heat, for 1 minute or until sauce is golden and bubbling.

with a simple arugula salad.

The bitterness of the greens will balance the flavors of the chicken. You can also serve this with a side of rice.
