The next president’s stamp on real estate The Washington Post Four years after the housing bubble burst, there’s much unfinished business regarding the restoration of the nation’s real estate market for the next president to tackle, experts across the political spectrum say.

There’s no denying that the next president’s economic and employment policies will be a key driver of the health of real estate for the next four years, not to mention the price of a mortgage. His policies will influence whether you can afford to buy a house or the amount of profit or loss you can expect from selling your house.

“The next president … is going to have a couple of big housing issues to address,” said Barry Zigas, housing policy director at the Consumer Federation of America. For starters, “Will consumers have access to mortgages at affordable rates?”

President Barack Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney have hinted at the steps they’d take — though neither campaign has outlined a comprehensive proposal for recovery of the housing market and private mortgage lending.

Fresh leaders at local schools • Every new school year brings new students. That’s true for school administrators, too.

Schools throughout Central Oregon are starting the year with new principals.

Some have risen through the ranks locally, while others have relocated to the region.

There are shifts across districts within the region, too. Shay Mikalson left his su-

perintendent post at the Redmond School District for an administrator job at BendLa Pine Schools. The school board named Mike McIntosh, the district’s director of operations, to serve as superintendent for this transitional school year.

The Sisters School District hired Tim Roth as its athletics programs manager, a new position for the district. Roth is tasked with helping Sisters schools coordinate athletic fundraising efforts.

What’s on the wish list locally?

By Lauren Dake The Bulletin

SALEM — For Central Oregon’s representatives, the No. 1 priority for the upcoming legislative session is easy: ensuring that Oregon State University-Cascades receives the funding it needs to become a four-year IN university.

Rep. Jason Con- SALEM ger, R-Bend, is the point man on the issue, and his Central Oregon colleagues in the House have pledged to be by his side. The university needs $16 million in bond funding from the state.

In addition to drafting legislation to lock down OSU-Cascades funding, lawmakers are working to meet a deadline next month to provide ideas that could become law.

OSU-Cascades isn’t the only education-related issue Conger aims to tackle. He’s vocal about his belief that the health of the state Public Employees Retirement System is tied to the well-being of public schools.

“Certainly PERS is a high priority,” he said. “Frankly, I don’t see how we can balance the budget without taking up PERS reform, and I intend to introduce several reform bills.”

Trial offers a crash course in the Amish

By Erik Eckholm New York Times News Service

CLEVELAND — When Nancy Mullet entered a federal courtroom here Thursday to testify in the hate-crimes trial of her father-in-law, Samuel Mullet Sr., and followers of his renegade sect, the jury knew at a glance which side she favored in this wrenching clash among Amish.

She was not wearing the small white scarf, tied behind the head to reveal the ears, that was adopted last year

by Mullet’s group and adorned his six female co-defendants and a dozen other women from his settlement who watched the proceedings from the gallery.

Instead, she wore the white cap with a chin tie that is preferred by most of the region’s conservative Amish orders. Seemingly small distinctions in clothing are filled with religious meaning.

LONDON — Anthony Dawson, who has cerebral palsy and little muscle function on his right side, rode for South Africa in the first round of the equestrian dressage competition at the Paralympics on Thursday, guiding his horse through an intricately choreographed series of movements.

Last summer he had to perform an altogether different set of exercises in front of a medical professional, a way of determining what for many is the most crucial and potentially fraught aspect of the Paralympics: the disability category in which he would compete.

There are five grades for Paralympic equestrians, ranging from 1A, for the most severely disabled riders, to IV, for the least impaired.

Dawson, 17, was put in Grade II, the group to which he has been assigned in every evaluation he has gone through.

f it’s a Sunday, it means Chick-fil-A stores all across America are closed. Patrons wait till Monday to get their spicy chicken sandwiches; for others recently, stopping by was a vote against gay marriage or for free speech, or both.

Most know the story by now: The company president voices his support for the “biblical definition of the family unit�; protests and calls for a boycott ensue; a Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day brings in record profits.

But how does a business make money after being attacked? The answer lies in the partisanship of fast-food consumers.

Using more than 200,000 interviews of American adults conducted each year by Scarborough Research, analysts will search for clues on what TV shows voters of all stripes watch, what cars they buy, and so on. The results show the partisan differences in consumer purchasing behavior. And when it comes to fast food, all Americans love their chicken; they just eat at different restaurants.

‘Ale to the Chief’: White House releases its beer recipes

By Matthew Daly The Associated Press

Beer lovers, the secret is out: The White House has made public the recipe for two homemade beers.

White House Honey Brown Ale, believed to be the first beer brewed on the White House grounds, includes light malt extract, amber crystal malt, honey, gypsum, yeast and corn sugar. (According to the White House blog: “George Washington brewed beer and distilled whiskey at Mount Vernon and Thomas Jefferson made wine.... Although we do know there was some drinking during prohibition....�)

White House press secretary Jay Carney announced the beer recipe Saturday on Twitter, linking to a blog post — titled “Ale to the Chief� — that included a video on the brewing process.

Each bubble in this chart represents an American chain restaurant (in one case, a store). The relative bubble sizes are based on the percentage of American adults surveyed by Scarborough Research who reported patronizing a particular outlet in the previous 30 days. About 42 percent of respondents, for example, reported going to McDonald’s, and just 2 percent to Hooters. About 11 percent said they’d eaten at Chick-fil-A. The bubbles were placed on the chart according to what those surveyed reported to be their political leanings and their likelihood of voting. Thus, a chain with a clientele that is both heavily Republican and likely to vote would be placed in the upper right, whereas a chain whose clientele skewed both Democratic and unlikely to vote would end up on the lower left.

So what can we glean? Chick-fil-A’s customers are among the most Republican in the country, but they’re less likely to vote than Cracker Barrel diners. Well-to-do urban Democrats are buying takeout and groceries at Whole Foods, and they vote. Socioeconomic status, urbanism and regional geography shape the partisanship and voting behavior of restaurant customers. High-turnout voters of both parties are more likely to be found at sit-down chains, where they can afford the higher tabs. See what else you notice:

Obama and his team frequently talk about the president’s fondness for beer, and Obama has been photographed many times downing one. Obama even held a “beer summit� in 2009 in an attempt to defuse a tense racial controversy that he waded into.

Obama has been talking about the White House brew for weeks, but he had refused to disclose details of how it’s made, despite an online petition and repeated questions from reporters. (The White House was careful to say the president paid for the materials used in the beer-making himself.)

NATO halts training for Afghan recruits

By Greg Jaffe The Washington Post

KABUL, Afghanistan — The senior commander for Special Operations forces in Afghanistan has suspended training for all new Afghan recruits until the more than 27,000 Afghan troops working with his command can be revetted for ties to the insurgency.

The move comes as NATO officials struggle to stem the tide of attacks on NATO forces by their Afghan colleagues.

The attacks, which have killed 45 troops this year, have forced NATO officials to acknowledge a painful truth: Many of the incidents might have been prevented if existing security measures had been applied correctly.

But numerous military guidelines were not followed — by Afghans or Americans — because of concerns that they might slow the growth of the Afghan army and police, according to NATO officials.

Special Operations officials said that the current process for vetting recruits is effective but that a lack of follow-up has allowed Afghan troops who fell under the sway of the insurgency or grew disillusioned with the Afghan government to remain in the force.

“We have a very good vetting process,” a senior Special Operations official said.

“What we learned is that you just can’t take it for granted.

We probably should have had a mechanism to follow up with recruits from the beginning.”

In other instances, the vetting process for Afghan soldiers and police was never properly implemented, and NATO officials say they knew it. But they looked the other way, worried that extensive background checks could hinder the recruitment process. Also

Afghan security forces march during their graduation ceremony in Kabul, Afghanistan, in 2011. Nearly 30,000 Afghan troops are being revetted for ties to the insurgency as officials struggle to stem the tide of attacks on Western forces by their Afghan colleagues and to heal NATO-Afghan relations.

ignored were requirements that Afghans display proper credentials while on base.

“Everyone admits there was a lot of international pressure to grow these forces, and the vetting of these individuals was cast aside as an inhibitor,” said a U.S. official who, like other officials, spoke on the condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak publicly about the issue.

The move last week by the Special Operations Command to suspend the training of new recruits followed the Aug. 17 shooting of two American Special Forces members by a new Afghan Local Police recruit at a small outpost in western Afghanistan.

The local police initiative places Special Forces teams in remote villages where they work with Afghan elders and government officials to help villagers defend themselves against insurgent attacks and intimidation. U.S. officials have touted the program,

which numbers about 16,000 Afghans, as a critical way to spread security and the influence of the Afghan government to remote areas of the country where the Taliban have found haven.

But the program, which is slated to double in size to about 30,000 Afghans, also carries risks for U.S. troops. “We’re living with the Afghans,” said a second senior Special Operations official. “We can’t afford to take any chances with vetting.”

Since the program began in 2010, there have been three instances of Afghan Local Police recruits turning their guns on their American counterparts.

On Saturday, Taliban suicide bombers staged what appeared to be a carefully coordinated attack southwest of Kabul that killed at least a dozen Afghans and wounded 58 more just outside the same U.S. military outpost where a similar attack one year ago wounded scores of U.S. soldiers.

Rebels appear to target air bases Los Angeles Times

BEIRUT — Thwarted by aerial attacks, Syrian rebels appear to have begun systemically targeting government air bases and aircraft, while trying to capture antiaircraft missiles that can shoot down helicopters and fighter jets.

An opposition group reported Saturday that insurgents had captured an air defense base in eastern Syria, close to the Iraqi border, and that battles were raging near a military airport in the area. News reports cited opposition sources as saying that some antiaircraft missiles were seized.

It was at least the third time in the last week that rebels reportedly targeted government air installations. The others were near the northern cities of Aleppo and Idlib, close to the Turkish border. If true, the operations would appear to demonstrate an elevated degree of coordination among various rebel brigades, which often operate autonomously.

The attacks seem to be directed at bases from which

ing parts of Mississippi and Louisiana with flooding.

In Mississippi, where two deaths have been attributed to Isaac, recovery efforts were under way Saturday even though some areas were still dealing with flooding and power outages.

In Louisiana, the number without power was down from more than 900,000.

However, in heavily populated Jefferson Parish near New Orleans, parish President John Young said Entergy Corp. was too slow in restoring electricity.

“As we transition to the recovery phase of this disaster, our priority is to identify damages and begin the process of requesting federal assistance for local governments and residents who have been affected by this disaster,” said Robert Latham, executive director of the Mississippi

Emergency Management Agency, in a statement.

In Louisiana, more than 3,000 evacuees remained in shelters across the state, though some had begun returning home.

In a Saturday news conference, New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu said that, although New Orleans had escaped the worst effects of the storm, the majority of the city still does not have power.

“Like everyone else, my patience is wearing thin,” he said. “This is more than an inconvenience; it continues to be dangerous for everybody.”

Recovery efforts in the city are under way and hundreds of workers have been sent out to clean up trees and debris, Landrieu said.

Meanwhile, the National Weather Service said two tornadoes touched down in rural areas of north-central Illinois and at least two touched down in rural southeast Missouri. There were no reports of damage in Illinois, and Missouri officials said some power lines caught on fire.

Bulletin wire reports Isaac lost most of its destructive steam by Saturday — with the Gulf Coast still recovering from its battering earlier last week — but the storm managed to carry a small amount of needed rain to drought-stricken parts of the Midwest.

“This by no means will be a drought-buster,” said Chris Vaccaro, a National Weather Service spokesman. “But we’ll take whatever rain we can get.”

Up to 3 inches of rain was expected in the Mississippi and Ohio valleys — though some parts of Illinois and Indiana could get more, Vaccaro said.

Residents of the Gulf Coast, meanwhile, were trying to cope with damage inflicted by the slow-moving storm.

Then a hurricane, Isaac made landfall Tuesday, the day before the seventh anniversary of Hurricane Katrina. It then proceeded to pummel the region for several days, largely sparing New Orleans but devastating southern, low-ly-

aircraft take off to strike opposition-held territory.

“When you can’t hit the airplanes when they are flying, you will make sure they can’t take off,” said a rebel representative in Idlib province who goes by the nickname Abu Bashir. “There are not enough antiaircraft weapons and missiles, so targeting air bases … is a natural choice.”

The government of President Bashar Assad rarely deployed fighter jets and helicopter gunships in the early days of the conflict, now in its 18th month. The military initially relied heavily on tanks, artillery and ground troops. But as insurgent forces grew in strength and attacks became more audacious, the government has unleashed its considerable air assets.

Rebels complain bitterly about a lack of surface-to-air missiles that could help neutralize military aircraft. There have been repeated reports that the opposition has received some supplies of such weapons, either provided by overseas suppliers, captured from government stocks or

purchased on the black market. But there has been no indication of widespread deployment of shoulder-fired surfaceto-air missiles in Syria.

Still, in the last week, the opposition has reported downing several aircraft, including a helicopter that was seen in a video Monday falling to the ground in flames in Damascus. On Thursday, another opposition video posted on the Web appeared to show a downed fighter jet in Idlib province, complete with a pilot apparently parachuting from the aircraft.

The authenticity of the videos could not be corroborated.

On Saturday, the new U.N. envoy to Syria issued a warning to the government. “I call on parties inside Syria to halt the fighting. Undoubtedly, this call is primarily directed to the government,” the envoy, Lakhdar Brahimi of Algeria, said in New York. “The need for change is urgent and necessary.”

Also Saturday, the government and rebels accused each other of a new round of extrajudicial executions. Such charges have become an almost daily feature of the conflict.

The Associated Press WASHINGTON — A senior Obama political appointee and longtime aide to Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano resigned Saturday amid allegations of inappropriate sexual behavior lodged by at least three Immigration and Customs

Enforcement employees.

Suzanne Barr, chief of staff to ICE Director John Morton, said in her resignation letter that the allegations against her are “unfounded.” But she said she was stepping down to end distractions within the agency.

Barr is accused of sexually inappropriate behavior

toward employees. In one complaint, Barr is accused of telling a male subordinate he was “sexy” and asking a personal question about his anatomy during an office party.

Homeland Security’s office of professional responsibility and inspector general are investigating the allegations.

Romney offers an ambitious agenda, but much could hinge on the Senate

By Maeve Reston Los Angeles Times

TAMPA, Fla. — As he has campaigned for president, Mitt Romney has made one thing clear: In his first term he would try to dramatically shrink the size of government to wean Americans from what he views as too much reliance on the federal government for basic services such as health care and food stamps.

Romney’s chances of success would depend on cooperation from Congress, but he has outlined an ambitious set of goals, even for his first day in office.

Powerless to actually “repeal and replace� President Barack Obama’s health care law on his own, Romney has said he would issue a firstday executive order directing federal officials to try to shift authority over some aspects of the program to the states. He would order agencies to begin eliminating Obama-era regulations “that unduly burden the economy or job creation� — a broad, if vague, directive.

He has said he would order the Treasury Department to immediately label China a “currency manipulator.� And he has outlined a plan to revamp the process for issuing drilling permits for domestic oil and gas exploration, with the goal of giving greater flexibility to states.

Though his options will hinge on which party controls the Senate, the former Massachusetts governor has also pledged to introduce several bills on his first day: slashing the corporate income tax rate to 25 percent; cutting non-security spending by 5 percent;

giving states authority over federal job retraining programs; and directing the Department of the Interior to survey U.S. energy reserves with the goal of opening new areas for domestic exploration.

Romney has also embraced many of the concepts of the budget plan of his running mate, House Budget Chairman Paul Ryan, who wants to impose across-the-board tax cuts while slashing spending on federal programs that help the poor and the elderly. But Romney has declined to talk about key details that could be politically perilous — such as transforming the Medicare system by offering future seniors the option of vouchers to purchase their health insurance.

Romney advisers have not said how big the federal vouchers would be — and how they would adjust that level of support to keep up with the rapidly increasing costs of health care. They argue that those sorts of details should be hammered out in consultation with Congress next year. But critics say that alone could mean a difference of hundreds of dollars, if not several thousand dollars, in the annual budgets of American seniors — and that, more broadly, Romney’s budget plan doesn’t add up.

As much as the details, though, the heart of the debate over the next couple months will be Obama’s and Romney’s differing visions of the role that government plays in the daily lives of Americans.

Obama argues that the vision Romney has sketched would favor the rich with tax cuts while shredding the social safety net.

For his part, Romney argues that Americans have become too dependent on government to solve their problems. “The strength and power and goodness of America has always been based on the strength and power and goodness of our communities, our families, our faiths,� Romney said in his speech at the Republican National Convention last week.

Romney’s advisers say Obama’s failure to clearly outline his plans for the second term suggests that Americans would see little change in the economy over the next four years under his leadership.

Romney policy adviser Jonathan Burks noted that the Republican nominee had set specific economic benchmarks to reach by the end of his first term as a result of his tax cuts and investment incentives: 12 million new jobs and an economy that is growing by about 4 percent a year.

In addition to lowering the corporate tax rate from 35 percent to 25 percent, Romney would extend all of the Bushera tax cuts and eliminate the estate tax. So far neither Romney nor his running mate has explained how they would pay for those changes.

Of course, presidential candidates often find their desires thwarted by the checks and balances of Washington. Just as a Republican House has blunted Obama’s wishes, so too could a Democratic Senate block the proposals of a President Romney. And policies that have burrowed into the bureaucracy can prove either difficult to fully extract — or may have grown politically popular with time.

New York Times News Service

consin, made a number of questionable or misleading claims in his speech. Even before he stopped speaking, some of his claims were being questioned on Twitter.

The truth-twisting has not been limited to Republicans. Democrats gleefully repeated an out-of-context quote that made it sound as if Romney enjoys firing people.

An outside group supporting Obama ran an advertisement giving the unfair impression that Romney was responsible for the death of the wife of a steelworker who lost his job and his health insurance when Romney’s old company, Bain Capital, closed down the plant where he worked.

And the Obama campaign ran a commercial falsely suggesting that Romney opposes abortion even in cases of rape or incest; he says he supports such exceptions.

Confidence in the old arbiters, the mainstream media, has fallen precipitously in recent decades: The percentage of Americans who trust newspapers, television and radio to report the news accurately and fairly fell to 43 percent in 2010, down from 72 percent in 1976, according to the Gallup Poll. Nyhan’s research has shown the difficulties in trying to set the record straight through news accounts.

Bill Adair, the editor of PolitiFact.com, a project of The Tampa Bay Times, has seen his site come under fire from the left and the right in recent years, but said that this may prove to be the year of the fact-checker. “I think there has always been a calculation by political campaigns to forge ahead with a falsehood if they think it will score the points they want to score,� said Adair, who noted that campaigns still care enough about the truth to spend time explaining their positions and statements to his reporters. “What’s different this time is there is more fact-checking than ever.�

A fiery Obama embarks on path to his convention

By Julie Pace The Associated Press

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Don’t expect President Barack Obama to try to reinvent himself this week at the Democratic Party’s national convention. Instead, he and a slew of his defenders will seek to persuade voters to stick with the president they know rather than gamble on someone new, a challenging task given that most Americans say the country is heading in the wrong direction.

“This Thursday, I will offer you what I believe is a better path forward, a path that grows this economy, creates more jobs and strengthens the middle class,” Obama said Saturday in Des Moines, Iowa, previewing his pitch. “And the good news is, you get to choose which path we take.”

Obama lampooned the justcompleted Republican National Convention as better-suited to an era of black-and-white TV and “ trickle-down, you’re on your own” economics Saturday, and declared that Mitt Romney “did not offer a single new idea” to fix the economy.

“There was a lot of talk about hard truths and bold choices, but no one actually told you what they were,” Obama said in Iowa, chuckling, as he set out on a three-day tour of battleground states in the run-up to his own convention. Later, Obama said, the Republican gathering was so rooted in the past, there should have been a rabbit-ears antenna on the convention hall.

Yet even the site of Obama’s convention, Charlotte, N.C., served as an unwelcome reminder to the Democrats of an economy so weak that it threatens his chances for re-election.

The president carried North Carolina in 2008, but the state’s unemployment rate is pegged at 9.6 percent, well higher than the nation’s 8.3 percent and tied with next-door South Carolina for fifth from the bottom.

While Democratic loyalists will fill the stadium where Obama accepts the nomination Thursday night, the president’s target audience is the small sliver of undecided voters in battleground states who will be critical to the outcome of what polls show is a tight race with two months to go.

(See map on facing page.)

His campaign also will try to revive some of its insurgent, grass-roots appeal from 2008 by using technology to let people participate in the convention. That effort also will help Obama’s team collect more data on voters.

Starting Tuesday, speakers will stand on a blue-carpeted stage in the Time Warner Cable Arena to endorse Obama’s economic agenda, which his team says is focused on the middle class: ending tax cuts for the rich and reducing the debt, while spending more on education, energy and infrastructure.

Several voters — called “American Heroes” by Obama’s team — also will speak at and appear in videos at the convention, putting a human face on Obama’s program.

Democrats hope that by holding their convention second, Obama can emerge with momentum on his side.

Obama will close the convention Thursday night with a speech in an outdoor football stadium, just as the Democratic nominee did in 2008.

Mindful of the comparisons to four years ago, Obama’s campaign is scrambling to ensure that the 74,000-seat stadium is filled to capacity. The largest crowd Obama has drawn during the 2012 campaign is about 14,000 people, far less than the jaw-dropping crowds he attracted in the 2008 campaign.

As in 2008, the campaign will use the large gathering to register voters and recruit new volunteers through text messaging and Twitter.

Aides say Obama won’t ignore the economic woes that have defined his four years in the White House. But they say he plans to focus largely on the future, and why he believes his policies will succeed in a second term. Obama isn’t expected to outline any new policy proposals. Instead, he plans to make the case for continuing what he has started.

And he is expected to double down on agenda items, like immigration and tax reforms, that gained little traction during his four years in office.

“When the convention is over, folks with be left with a clear road map of where he thinks America needs to go,” said Stephanie Cutter, Obama’s deputy campaign manager. “And it will be clear what his focus will be in an Obama second term.”

Working against Obama: the nation’s 8.3 percent unemployment rate, sluggish economic growth and fears the economy could slip back into a recession.

There’s also a general malaise. The latest Associated Press-GfK poll showed 60 percent of registered voters say the country is heading in the wrong direction.

The convention opens Tuesday with first lady Michelle Obama, whose popularity far surpasses her husband’s, as a featured speaker. San Antonio, Texas, Mayor Julian Castro also is slated for that night.

He will be the first Hispanic to deliver the Democratic convention’s keynote address.

Their roles on the convention’s opening night are part of Democrats’ efforts to shore up support among women and Hispanics, two crucial voting blocs where Obama holds an advantage over Romney.

Former President Bill Clinton, who is emerging as one of the campaign’s most effective surrogates, will headline the convention Wednesday and formally nominate Obama.

Case closed, but legal trouble isn’t over for Arizona sheriff The Associated Press PHOENIX — The federal abuse-of-power investigation into America’s self-proclaimed toughest sheriff may have been closed without criminal charges, but Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s legal troubles are far from over.

A civil case brought by a small group of Latinos who accuse Arpaio’s office of systematically racially profiling is awaiting a verdict from an Arizona-based federal judge.

The U.S. Department of Justice has also sued the sheriff for alleged constitutional violations including racial profil-

ing, retaliating against Arpaio critics, punishing Latino jail inmates with limited English skills for speaking Spanish and failing to adequately investigate a large number of sex-crimes cases. No trial date in that case has been set.

The Justice Department announced late Friday it would not pursue criminal charges against the sheriff or his office, or against former Maricopa County top prosecutor Andrew Thomas and a top Thomas aide, Lisa Aubuchon, for abuse of power. Thomas and Aubuchon have been disbarred by the state Supreme Court.

Paralympics Continued from A1 He is confident that he belongs there, although some of his competitors clearly are not: So far in his brief career, Dawson said, he has been the subject of eight official complaints about his classification.

“They were saying that I’m too able for Grade II,” he explained. “But Grade II is by far the most diverse grade, and that’s where I’ve always been placed.”

He added dryly: “I have really gotten to know the classifiers.”

The Paralympics that opened Wednesday in London are no less competitive than the Olympics held here earlier this summer. The Paralympics are the largest ever, with 4,200 athletes competing in 20 sports. Some are in wheelchairs, some are wholly or partially blind, some have three, two, one or no limbs, some have dwarfism, some have intellectual deficits, some have complex coordination and muscle-control problems, and some have multisymptom conditions like multiple sclerosis.

The classifiers, as they are called, must ensure that athletes compete against others of similar ability — an exercise in physical examination and assessment that exists nowhere else in sports.

“Its not always as simple as if you’re just dealing with amputations, for example — one arm, one leg,” said Christine Meaden, chief classifier for the International Paralympic Equestrian Committee. “We have people with coordination problems, paralysis, amputations and visual impairments — and people who have a mixture of types of disabilities.”

‘Minimal disability’ Paralympians have to be assessed by international classifiers before arriving at the games. But, said Peter van der Vliet, the International Paralympic Committee’s chief medical classifier, some 245 athletes here have been deemed borderline — hovering between one grade and another — and have been reassessed at the games.

Forty have been moved to different classifications, and eight athletes (in track and field, swimming and judo) have been ruled ineligible and sent home because, he said, they did not meet “the minimal disability criterion.”

The classification process is multifaceted and different for each sport. Riders in international equestrian events are observed riding in competition. They also have to undergo face-to-face medical

Spain’s Xabi Torres jumps next to his prosthetic legs as he leaves the swimming pool after training Friday before the Paralympics competition. Swimmers with physical impairments are divided into 10 classes for races.

“I have no function or feeling from the belly button down, and now I’m competing against people who are, say, missing just one arm or have leg amputations below the knee. I think there’s a significant difference.”

evaluations from two international classifiers, involving a range of movements that tests for strength, coordination and flexibility. The exercises can be as straightforward as touching a finger and thumb together, moving the shoulder or placing a heel in set spots on the ground.

The system is meant to focus on the athletes’ physical abilities and on the limitations their disabilities impose, not on their riding prowess. But it can anger competitors who believe that they are being forced to compete against people who are less disabled than they are.

“People will say, ‘You shouldn’t be in Grade 1A — you ride so well,’ ” said Donna Ponessa, a rider on the U.S. team. She has multiple sclerosis and is paralyzed from the chest down. She uses a wheelchair and a ventilator, except when she rides.

“But I’ve given up a year and a half of my life for the Olympics,” she said — time spent entirely riding, exercising at the gym or working.

Riders with fluctuating conditions like multiple sclerosis are frequently re-evaluated, and athletes unhappy with their classifications can appeal. “It’s a fundamental right that if an athlete believes a wrong decision is taken, he has a right to protest,” van der Vliet said.

Swimming has 10 classifications for athletes with different physical impairments, plus three more for visual

impairments and one for athletes with intellectual deficits.

For that reason it is particularly prone to challenges, and swimmers say they sometimes suspect that athletes have not been classified correctly.

Three weeks before she was set to compete in the London Paralympics, Mallory Weggemann, a U.S. swimmer who is paralyzed from the waist down, learned that officials from the International Paralympic Committee had questions about her level of ability.

Weggemann has always swum at the S7 level, against athletes who, for instance, might have double leg amputations or paralysis down one side of their bodies. But after a physical evaluation by two examiners four days ago, she was moved to level S8, a class in which the athletes are less disabled.

“I have no function or feeling from the belly button down, and now I’m competing against people who are, say, missing just one arm or have leg amputations below the knee,” Weggemann said.

“I think there’s a significant difference in functional ability between myself and the new competitors.”

Gaming the system It works both ways, and athletes say they have all heard of instances of people trying to game the system.

“I think I’m in the right class, but always there are some

people who — how do you say this? — lie a little more than others and pretend to be worse than they are,” said Amaya Alonso, a Spanish swimmer who competed Thursday in the women’s 400-meter freestyle S12 class, for swimmers with visual impairments.

One competitor, who did not want to be identified talking about cheating, said: “You hear people say, ‘Well, I know what it takes to be a I or a II.’ Everybody is in search of that win, present company included, and I’m told that some people are less than scrupulous.”

Asked if the system was vulnerable to abuse, van der Vliet said: “I can counter that one with a question: Can I eliminate doping from the games?” (The answer is no.)

The most notorious example of Paralympic classification manipulation took place at the 2000 games in Sydney.

The Spanish men’s intellectual disability basketball team was stripped of its gold medal after it emerged that many of its members were not intellectually disabled at all.

After that, mentally disabled athletes were barred from the Paralympics while officials revised the classification process. They are back again this year.

The athletes say they sympathize with the difficulties faced by the classifiers, who are forced to determine how to sort people who have several hundred different types and degrees of disability.

“No system is perfect,” Dale Dedrick, a U.S. para-equestrian who has systemic lupus and competes at Level II, said in an email. “Before I would wish to challenge someone else’s disability, however, I would consider carefully the old adage of walking a mile in their shoes.”

THE BULLETIN • SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 2012

Real estate Continued from A1 Obama would build on his programs already under way for foreclosure relief, expanded refinancing and loan modifications, while continuing to implement new housing finance rules and consumer protections under the Dodd-Frank Act. He also supports proposed legislation that would make it easier to refinance.

“The administration has put forward a plan to help more responsible borrowers refinance their mortgages — saving hundreds of dollars per month — while taking concrete steps to help families stay in their homes, revitalize the communities hardest hit by the housing crisis, and reform the mortgage lending market to better protect both consumers and taxpayers,” Obama campaign spokesman Adam Fetcher said in an email.

Romney, on the other hand, would repeal DoddFrank and replace it with streamlined regulations that make it easier for the private sector — especially smaller financial institutions — to re-enter the mortgage market. He hasn’t outlined what those new regulations would be.

“We have to have regulation, but we need it modern and up-to-date,” he said at an Aug. 13 appearance in St. Augustine, Fla.

What to watch Whether you already own property or hope to buy in the future, the next president’s housing policies will affect you. Zigas and other experts suggested keeping an eye on the following areas: The mortgage market: At the depth of the recession in 2008, a federal conservator took over housing giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to avoid a real estate meltdown. Some form of federal guarantee has backed more than 90 percent of the U.S. home mortgages originated since then.

The next president will have to decide how much of the housing market will continue to be subsidized by the federal government, and through what structure.

“No one is going to propose to keep Fannie and Freddie in their current form,” said Sarah Rosen Wartell, a housing expert and president of the Urban Institute.

The decision will have a huge influence on the housing market and the price of real estate, both for the lower end of the market that competes with affordable rental housing and the higher end that has lagged, partly because of lower limits for the size of mortgages that can be purchased and resold by Fannie and Freddie.

The Obama administration last year outlined three possible ways to replace the role Fannie and Freddie play in the mortgage market, but did not choose one.

Since then, the administration has changed rules and limits to continue to pare away at the two housing firms. On Aug. 17, the government announced a renegotiated conservatorship agreement for Fannie and Freddie that puts them on track to shrink faster than anticipated, about four years ahead of schedule.

Romney also would wind down the housing giants’ portfolio, counting on private investors to replace the government backing. But neither candidate has proposed an alternative model.

Obama supports a continued federal tax deduction for mortgage interest, although his fiscal 2013 budget would limit the mortgage deduction for taxpayers making more than $250,000. Romney, meanwhile, chose Paul Ryan as his running mate, someone who has expressed support for eliminating tax breaks such as the mortgage deduction in favor of a simpler tax code and lower rates overall.

Foreclosures: On top of this is the question of foreclosure relief. With one-quarter of American homeowners owing more on their mortgages than the property is worth, we’re hardly out of the woods, said Guy Cecala, publisher of Inside Mortgage Finance,

Hints on their next steps Three key areas where President Barack Obama and Republican nominee Mitt Romney differ on housing policy:

OBAMA

ROMNEY

1. Supports the DoddFrank overhaul of financial regulations, including stricter rules for mortgage professionals and a new consumer agency combating fraud and abuse.

2. Proposed giving money to local authorities in hard-hit communities for partnering with the private sector on rehabilitating foreclosures and raising property values.

3. Wants Congress to expand refinancing opportunities to underwater homeowners whose mortgages aren’t held

by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.

1. Views Dodd-Frank as overly bureaucratic and would replace it with regulations aimed at encouraging private investment in mortgages.

a mortgage industry research and publishing firm.

“The bottom line is a lot of people are facing foreclosure because they can’t afford their mortgage, and unless you want to give them a free mortgage you can’t resolve that,” Cecala said.

Both Obama and Romney support the government selling some of the 200,000 foreclosedupon homes owned by Fannie, Freddie and the Federal Housing Administration and converting them to rental housing.

The Obama administration announced this year it will begin pilot sales of these homes.

“Let’s get them out of the government’s hands and put them back in the hands of the public,” Romney said in his St. Augustine speech. His campaign says converting vacant, foreclosed homes into healthy rental properties will boost home prices. Every 5 percent increase in home values means about 2 million fewer underwater properties, cutting the number of potential foreclosures as well.

Romney has also expressed support for the idea — promoted by former House Speaker Newt Gingrich in the Republican primary debates — of more aggressively exploring foreclosure alternatives such as short sales, deed-in-lieu transactions and shared appreciation.

The administration’s mortgage modification program has helped more than 5 million homeowners modify loans and stave off foreclosure, while the refinancing program has assisted more than 1.3 million people between April 2009 and May 2012, according to government reports.

Obama also proposed providing $15 billion to local communities to partner with the private sector in buying and rehabilitating foreclosed houses and expanding refinancing to homeowners whose mortgages are not held by government-backed entities. Both measures would require legislative approval.

“We’ve got historically low interest rates now, and the housing market is beginning to tick back up but it’s still not at all where it needs to be,” Obama said at an Aug. 20 news briefing. “We’re going to be pushing Congress to see if they can pass a refinancing bill that puts $3,000 into the pockets of the average family who hasn’t yet refinanced their mortgage.”

Down payments: As the federal government has worked to right the housing market and reduce the amount of bad debt, down payments have steadily increased. Some of the rise results from financial institutions tightening their standards. But the government also sets required down payments in many cases.

The next administration will decide whether to continue increasing the amount of money needed to buy a home or whether it’s time to loosen the standards to encourage a rebound in residential real estate.

At a time when mortgage rates are at all-time lows and housing prices are reasonable, many households that could benefit the most can’t get credit or can’t afford down payments, Zigas said. “What you’re seeing is a continuation of the credit crunch that emerged in 2009,” Cecala said. “Mortgage credit, in particular, is very tight and tough to come by.”

In Romney’s view, credit is scarce because lenders are unsure how they’ll be affected by the new mortgage and housing finance rules being implemented under the mammoth Dodd-Frank Act. A second Obama administration or Romney would take over “with the market adjusting to these new rules,” Zigas said. “There are some who say

2. Sees big government as the problem that is holding back a housing recovery, not the solution.

3. Says the current credit crunch is a result of uncertainty around the slow implementation of the Dodd-Frank regulations.

— The Washington Post

it’s going to lead to a contraction in mortgage credit. I don’t believe that.”

In the end, so many other parties are involved in crafting mortgage-market policy and implementing it that differences between Obama and Romney would be muted. Not only are other administration officials and lawmakers involved, but also think tanks, academic researchers, consumer advocates and representatives of all corners of the financial sector.

“The starting positions of President Romney or Obama are likely to be different, but the legislative process will lend itself to compromise,” Wartell said.

Consumer protections: One of the Obama administration’s signature actions has been the creation of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the first financial regulator charged with protecting consumers from fraud, abuse and misrepresentation of mortgages and other financial products. Many Republicans have sharply criticized the CFPB and its power.

“Romney has staked out that he’s opposed to the regulation, he wants to reduce it and roll back Dodd-Frank and limit the CFPB’s authority,” Cecala said.

While it’s unlikely that a Romney administration would eliminate the new agency, it would certainly take a very different approach to regulating consumer finance and how much leverage Wall Street enjoys.

“There’s a stark difference in rhetoric around the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

But I think it is unrealistic regardless of administration to unwind the bureau,” Wartell said. “Much more likely under Romney would be structural changes, less autonomy, less independence.”

The bureau implements rules about which mortgages would be eligible for government backing and standards for mortgage industry professionals. Its officials also have power to take enforcement action against companies they contend are violating consumer rights. For instance, the agency gave advice to state attorneys general in the national mortgage servicer settlement and is continuing to probe the mortgage insurance business, among others.

“Our focus is on reforming the mortgage market system in a way that’s going to, over the long term, provide more stability and continued access to mortgage finance for middle-class families, but is also going to get serious about addressing the dramatic failures,” said Brian Deese, deputy director of the National Economic Council. “For a borrower, it means we’re no longer going to have an industry where you can get tricked into loans you can’t afford.”

Repairing the economy: Ultimately, the future of the housing market is inextricably tied to the economy.

The more that people have well-paying jobs and can afford larger homes, the better the real estate market will fare. In a healthy economy, the market would be more able to absorb the homes that are currently underwater and not for sale, and thus are exerting a drag on the economy, Zigas said.

Moreover, the path the next administration sets for addressing federal budget deficits and the national debt will determine how much money will be available for affordable housing, foreclosure prevention and homeownership initiatives.

“In the context of not being able to help working Americans, I think the next administration is going to have to come to terms with what is an equitable housing policy — how to use those resources,” Zigas said.

Conditions faced by farmers during this summer’s drought pale in comparison to the Dust Bowl era of the 1930s, says 85-year-old Missouri farmer Tony Klott. “You have a lot better chance now than you did back then,” he said.

A Dust Bowl survivor sees parallels to heat, not hardship

By Alan Bjerga

Klott grew up on a family farm in Missouri.

He is among a dwindling number who experienced the “Dirty ’30s.”

Bloomberg News

HERMANN, Mo. — Tony Klott remembers pouring water in front of his shoeless feet as a boy so the cracked Dust Bowl ground wouldn’t burn his soles.

His children and grandchildren now live in climate-controlled comfort within an hour’s drive of the Missouri farm where he grew up. Klott, 85 and retired, said the difficulties of living through the drought of 2012 pale in comparison to those of the “Dirty ’30s.”

Last month surpassed July 1936, the depths of the Dust Bowl, as the hottest month on record in the lower 48 states.

The Department of Agriculture has declared almost 1,700 counties — about 56 percent of all U.S. counties — as natural-disaster areas caused by a drought that has seared millions of acres of pasture and cropland from Nebraska to Texas. Prices of wheat and corn have risen so much that ranchers have slaughtered cattle to avoid the cost of feeding them.

Klott is among a dwindling number of farmers who experienced the dust storms and poverty of the Dirty ’30s immortalized in “The Grapes of Wrath,” when Plains topsoil blackened skies in New York and red snow fell in New England.

“You have a lot better chance now than you did back then,” Klott said in an interview on the Hermann, Mo., farm where he grew up.

One reason is the federal government: A safety net of subsidies and crop insurance means his family doesn’t face the struggles of his childhood, when failed crops meant going hungry or abandoning farms.

Better land management has kept the skies free of the dust storms that defined the era. U.S. farmers have been transformed from subsistence growers to global suppliers.

Tall and serious, with an accent that hints at the German he spoke as a child, Klott remembers exact dates of weather disasters, as well as the routes he served in 21 years as a mail carrier, supplementing his farm income.

“It rained mud” in the 1930s around his childhood home, Klott said in an interview in his current house, near Bowling Green, Mo. His son now farms the surrounding fields of parched soybeans and corn. “Some days it would be as clear as this, but you could hardly see the sun. The sky would just be full of dust.”

The third-eldest of seven children, in a family struggling to feed itself on 160 acres of woods, pasture and crops outside Hermann, Klott was 7 years old in 1934, in an area where farming had changed little from the 19th century.

The Klotts spoke German at home. English, like shoes, was only for school. His mother baked six loaves of bread daily. Sunday dinner featured meat from squirrels they hunted. Electricity and indoor plumbing were for city folk, and education stopped before high school.

Dust Bowl farmers “were doing their work under conditions none of us can quite imagine,” said Pamela Riney-Kehrberg, chairwoman of the history department at Iowa State University in Ames. “Farm women would get up at 2 or 3 in the morning because that was the only time they could

churn butter” in cooler air, she said. “To understand what was going on in the ’30s, you have to add a whole other layer of despair and discomfort.”

The U.S. itself was a much poorer, less-educated, more agricultural nation. About a fifth of the labor force worked in farming, compared with less than a 50th today, according to Census data.

This year’s dryness resembles the 1930s in heat and rainfall patterns, said Jason Rosencrans, a meteorologist with the federal Climate Prediction Center. In July, drought covered 57.2 percent of the contiguous 48 states, according to the Palmer Drought Index. In July 1934, the figure was 79.9 percent.

Despite meager rainfall, crop revenues this year will exceed pre-drought estimates as soaring prices offset lower yields, the U.S. Department of Agriculture said, forecasting record farm profits of $122.2 billion.

Today’s crop growers also have access to taxpayer-subsidized insurance to help recoup lost sales, a program that may pay out $20 billion this year.

given way to computerequipped tractors. Today Klott can escape the heat in the central air conditioning he added to his house in 1995.

“The physical stuff was tougher for them. Now the strain is more mental,” said Joe, one of three of Tony’s five children who still farm. None of his adult grandchildren do.

The current drought is a reminder that farming, then and today, includes risks, and no guarantee of success, he said.

People who work hard, who help one another, will make it through.

“Hang in there,” he says, and he smiles.

THALIDOMIDE

Would cutting out ethanol Maker of morning-sickness drug lower corn prices? Maybe

apologizes to victims,50 years on

By John F. Burns New York Times News Service

LONDON — Decades of campaigning by victims of thalidomide, a morning sickness drug, have taken a new turn, with the first apology in 50 years to the victims and their families by the drug’s German manufacturer — and an incensed rejection of the apology as too little and too late from many of those it was intended to placate.

Although thalidomide was never approved for use by pregnant women in the U.S., some victims are American.

The apology was issued Friday by Harald Stock, chief executive of the Grunenthal Group, a family-owned pharmaceutical company that marketed the drug in the 1950s and early 1960s. It was withdrawn in 1961 after it was linked to birth defects, including shortened arms and legs, and in some cases no limbs at

all, that campaigners say affected 10,000 babies around the world, mostly in Australia, Canada, Europe and Japan.

The apology came in a speech Stock delivered in the Rhineland town of Stolberg, the company’s base, at the unveiling of a thalidomide memorial, a bronze statue of a limbless child.

Addressing the victims and their families, particularly their mothers, he said the company wished to “apologize for the fact that we have not found the way to you from person to person for almost 50 years. Instead, we have been silent, and we are very sorry for that.”

According to an English translation of his remarks that appeared on Grunenthal’s website, he added, “We ask that you regard our long silence as a sign of the shock that your fate caused in us.”

Berrisford Boothe is among the victims who called for a

public apology. Boothe, 51, an associate professor of art at Lehigh University in Bethlehem, Pa., described himself in a phone interview as one of 26 known U.S. thalidomide victims. He said he had been born with severe disabilities in both hands and one arm, and described his life as a “long and isolated journey” as a child growing up in Jamaica and later the U.S. Now, he said, Grunenthal, shaken from a half-century of denial by a class-action lawsuit in Australia, had made “some kind of statement that they are emotionally connected to our suffering. They’ve had 50 years to make billions of dollars while we struggled and our parents committed suicide.”

Stock said the company had carried out all the tests on thalidomide before it was marketed that were possible given the scientific knowledge available in the 1950s.

Groups of Amish outside the hate-crimes trial under way in Cleveland show examples of women’s head coverings, such as stringed caps.

Amish Continued from A1 As Nancy Mullet walked to the witness chair, she passed a cluster of women wearing the same kind of cap, who had come in support of victims of the peculiar beard-cutting attacks by Samuel Mullet’s followers that roiled eastern Ohio last fall.

Jury members and spectators alike received a crash course in Amish culture from testimony during the first week of the trial. They had heard a prior witness snap at an unwary lawyer who referred imprecisely to a hair covering, telling him, “It’s a cap, not a bonnet.”

To many outside his clique, Mullet’s decision to have the women switch from caps to what others disparaged as “skimpy scarves” was one more sign that he was isolating his flock and leading them into sin.

Adopting different headgear was hardly Mullet’s most serious transgression in the years leading up to last fall’s violence. According to Amish critics, Mullet created a cult with decidedly un-Amish traits, including sexual favors for the bishop (himself), unheard-of methods of discipline, such as forcing miscreants to ponder their sins in a chicken coop, and festering anger at those who quit his church.

For the Amish, the minute practices of daily life, from hair coverings to choice of buggy wheels, are intertwined with their fundamentalist Christian beliefs.

The 16 defendants could be tried for simple assault without going into the fine points of what those on both sides call the Amish way. But to prove the far more serious hate-crime charges brought here by the U.S. attorney, Steven Dettelbach, prosecutors must show that religious differences drove the attacks. Groups from Mullet’s 18-family settlement near Bergholz, Ohio, are accused of forcibly shearing the beards and hair of perceived enemies.

So prosecutors have stressed the religious aspects of Mullet’s bitter feuds with critics and those who dared flee his settlement, and whom he accused of doing the devil’s work. They have heard Amish describe how profoundly their selfworth is tied to their uncut

beards — Mullet’s is a foot long — and hair. One of the forcibly shorn men, his wife said, sat through dinners holding his napkin over his chin.

To counter the hate-crime charges, defense lawyers have tried to focus instead on the personal grudges and family disputes that affected the choice of victims.

Between the symbol-laden appearance of many in the courtroom and statements that, coming from the reticent Amish, can only be called startling, the trial has presented a spectacle. Mullet’s wife, Martha, sat impassively as she heard her daughter-in-law describe being repeatedly forced into sex with Mullet, only to have him call her a whore when she finally refused. Two of Mullet’s brothers and two of his sisters in the gallery — in caps, not scarves — barely concealed their disgust as defense lawyers described his odd practices as true Amish.

Most of the witnesses speak Pennsylvania Dutch at home, and some apologized as they groped for the right English word.

Conservative Amish end schooling at the eighth grade and do not watch television.

The girls are taught to cook, sew, raise children and obey their husbands. The Bergholz women in the courtroom, who have led particularly isolated lives, watched raptly as two female prosecutors managed the government’s case and as a federal marshal with pink handcuffs on her belt stood by.

(All the court-appointed defense lawyers are men.)

Because it was so central to Mullet’s disputes, the jurors got a quick education in the Amish tradition of shunning, or excommunicating individuals who defiantly stray from the path. “It’s a last resort” and “a heartbreaking thing to do,” testified Andy Hershberger, who was attacked along with his 76-year-old father, Raymond, in October by some of Samuel Mullet’s sons, wielding razor-sharp horse shears for clipping horse manes.

Shunnings should occur only after months of discussion and a near-unanimous vote of the congregation, Hershberger said. Normally, other Amish groups respect the decision and tell the offender he must make amends with his

original church.

Attackers told the elder Hershberger that he became a target because he had joined other Amish leaders in rejecting Mullet’s use of shunning decrees against people who quit his settlement.

Some 300 bishops from three states gathered in 2006 in Ulysses, Pa., to discuss the issue. They appointed a committee, including Hershberger, that made the rare decision not to honor Mullet’s decrees.

It was a stinging rebuke that Mullet never forgave.

The story of Bergholz is filled with contradictions. An adult daughter of Barbara and Martin Miller told the court how she and five brothers went to live with Mullet’s group because it offered a more conservative, biblical Amish life. Compelled to testify for the prosecution, that daughter, Nancy Burkholder, also said the children had deeply resented their father’s constant criticism.

Yet those children cast their lot with a leader whose teachings are far from orthodox, and who is known for vindictive rages. The women of Bergholz, according to testimony, became angry a year or two back at their husbands, accusing them of ogling “English” women, as non-Amish are called, while shopping. The unrest reached the point where, under Mullet’s supervision, several men had to spend days in chicken coops and consent to beard-shearing to help them renew their faith.

Yet some of these same women, according to testimony that went unchallenged by the defense, accepted Mullet’s intimate sexual “counseling” and urged others to give in to his ministrations.

The Amish are nothing if not private, and the airing of family rifts and church battles has, for many, been little short of a cataclysm. Barbara Miller, who is Mullet’s sister, had to listen as her daughter exclaimed to the world she was a bad parent; then she had to describe how her children and their spouses came one night to cut her husband’s beard and her own waist-length hair, and how they called their parents “godless” and collected the shorn locks in a paper bag to present to Mullet.

“It’s the worst thing I’ve ever done,” Miller said of her own painful testimony.

WASHINGTON — This summer’s brutal weather is the backdrop for a renewed battle between fuel and food interests: The meat industry and several governors want less of the nation’s corn going to make ethanol, but it’s questionable whether the pullback would really help lower corn prices skyrocketing because of the worst drought in 50 years.

Rising corn prices are driving up the cost of livestock feed, and the renewable fuel standard is causing “severe economic harm” to pork and poultry farmers in North Carolina, according to Gov. Beverly Perdue.

Gov. Rick Perry of Texas argued that ethanol is hurting cattle ranchers and driving up grocery prices. They and several other governors from meat-producing states have petitioned the Environmental Protection Agency to suspend its requirement for refineries to blend 13 billion gallons of ethanol into the gasoline that’s used across the country.

The EPA says it’s considering the request from the governors and looking for public comment, but that “does not indicate any predisposition to a specific decision.” Analysts say the Obama administration’s decision is complicated by the fact gasoline prices would be higher without the ethanol being added into the nation’s fuel supply.

“You have two competing interests. You have very high corn prices and you have very high gasoline prices,” said John Kilduff, a founding partner at New York hedge fund Again Capital, which focuses on energy.

About 40 percent of the nation’s corn crop is set aside for ethanol production this year, although about a third of that corn going into ethanol plants actually comes out as a byproduct that is converted into nutritious livestock feed.

There are wealthy and politically powerful interests on both sides of the ethanol fight. The meat and oil industries have been campaign contributors to governors calling for a suspension of the ethanol requirement. Livestock owners want cheaper corn to feed their animals and the American Petroleum Institute, the oil industry’s major trade group, has tried to stop in court an upcoming gasoline blend with 15 percent ethanol instead of up

Across a wide stretch of Midwestern farms, sweltering temperatures and a dearth of rain are threatening what was expected to be the nation’s largest corn crop in generations.

“You have two competing interests.

You have very high corn prices and you have very high gasoline prices.”

to 10 percent.

They’re at odds with the influential agribusiness lobby representing companies such as Archer Daniels Midland that produce ethanol. It’s more a regional than partisan split among the politicians wading into the argument. While Purdue, a Democrat, and Perry, a Republican, want the requirement suspended, the governor of Iowa, Republican Terry Branstad, has defended an ethanol industry that produced some $15 billion worth of fuel in 41 plants in his state last year.

This summer’s drought has renewed a decades-long battle, with corn prices reaching record highs and the head of the United Nation’s food and agriculture organization joining the call for a yearlong suspension of the ethanol requirement.

But suspending the mandate for ethanol use could have a smaller impact on the price of corn than people seem to believe and potentially would have no impact at all, according to University of Illinois agricultural economists Scott Irwin and Darrell Goode.

“The EPA does not necessarily have the ability to substantially ease the plight of

livestock producers in 20122013 at the stroke of a pen,” they concluded in an August analysis. That is consistent with recent studies from Iowa State University and Purdue University.

“Psychologically you might see a decline in corn prices, but as a practical matter the country will still use the same amount of ethanol we had planned to use this year anyway,” said oil industry consultant Andy Lipow, head of Lipow Oil Associates in Houston.

A third of the gasoline in the country still would need to have ethanol regardless because of other federal, state and local clean air rules, particularly in the big cities of the East and West coasts. Elsewhere in the nation, refiners often produce gasoline with an octane rating of 84 and then rely on ethanol to boost it up to the regular 87 octane sold at the pump, Lipow said.

That isn’t likely to stop right away, he said. Ethanol is also cheaper than gasoline, and the savings is passed on to consumers at the gas pump, Lipow and other energy analysts said in interviews.

“The ethanol is so engrained in the system. So it’s not entirely clear that the refiners would want to stop adding it,” said Kilduff of Again Capital, who figured gasoline would cost about 15 cents more a gallon if ethanol were not blended into it.

Inquiry on tax strategy adds to scrutiny of finance firms New York Times News Service The New York attorney general is investigating whether some of the nation’s biggest private equity firms have abused a tax strategy in order to slice hundreds of millions of dollars from their tax bills, according to executives with direct knowledge of the inquiry.

Attorney General Eric Schneiderman has in recent weeks subpoenaed more than a dozen firms seeking documents that would reveal whether they converted certain management fees collected from their investors into fund investments, which are taxed at a far lower rate than ordinary income.

Among the firms to receive subpoenas are Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co., TPG Capital, Sun Capital Partners, Apollo Global Management, Silver Lake Partners and Bain Capital (which was founded by Mitt Romney, the Republican nominee for president). Representatives for the firms declined to comment on the inquiry.

Some executives at the firms said they feared that Schneiderman, a first-term Democrat with ties to the Obama administration, was seeking to embarrass the industry because of Romney’s roots at Bain. Others suggested that the subpoenas, which were issued by the attorney general’s Taxpayer Protection Bureau, might be part of an effort to recover more revenue for New York under state tax law. The

Salem Continued from A1 Conger believes capping the cost-of-living adjustments in the PERS system could free up close to an estimated $500 million per budget cycle. Another idea is to cap benefits at 100 percent of salary, so retirees could not collect more in retirement from PERS than they earned while employed. He would also like to prohibit legislators from joining PERS and prevent judges from hearing cases related to the retirement system.

Rep. Gene Whisnant, RSunriver, also plans to take aim at PERS-related issues.

He wants the PERS website to clearly state its unfunded liability. He is also redrafting a bill that would ensure that state employees who are convicted of felonies and serve prison time don’t receive benefits while incarcerated.

For Rep. Mike McLane, RPowell Butte, who grew up in Condon and spent summers harvesting alfalfa and changing irrigation pipes, his focus this session has gravitated toward natural resources. Last session, he pushed for legislation that would permit the diversion and storage of winter flows from the Columbia River, largely for irrigation purposes.

He’s tweaking the language in that bill and plans to resurrect it this session. He is also working on legislation that would mandate a statewide examination of the water supply.

“We have water supply demands, and they are growing, and we don’t have a comprehensive plan to increase water supplies,” McLane said.

Rep. John Huffman, R-The Dalles, will take up a topic from sessions past. A Sistersarea family that has been trying to build a destination resort on its property has teamed up with Huffman to work for state and local land use law exemptions. In the past, the bill struggled to gain traction with those worried about granting exemptions to state land use laws for one family.

Huffman said the Heritage Guest Ranch bill, formerly called the Cyrus Heritage Farm development bill, would not only apply to the Cyrus family property but others, too. He said specifics have yet to be determined, but when the idea was floated in the past, it included up to 495 single-family homes and a wide range of recreational facilities, from RV spaces to equestrian facilities.

Huffman is also working on a bill that could address privacy issues when it comes to drones.

He wants to ensure that drones can’t fly over private property and use any information gathered without first receiving a warrant. He believes legislation is a pre-emptive strike and that, without it, privacy issues will be on the horizon.

attorney general’s office does not have the power to enforce federal tax laws.

A spokesman for Schneiderman declined to comment.

The tax strategy used by Bain and other firms to convert management fees — the compensation normally taxed

as ordinary income — into capital gains is known as a “management fee waiver.” The strategy is widely used within the industry: 40 percent of the 35 buyout firms based in the U.S. surveyed in 2009 by Dow Jones said their partners used at least some of the firm’s fees

to make investments in their funds. But some prominent firms avoid the practice.

The strategy — which is viewed as perfectly legal by some tax experts, aggressive by others and potentially illegal by some — came to light last month when hundreds

of pages of Bain’s internal financial documents were made available online. The financial statements show that at least $1 billion in accumulated fees that otherwise would have been taxed as ordinary income for Bain executives had been converted into invest-

ments producing capital gains, which are subject to a federal tax of 15 percent, versus a top rate of 35 percent for ordinary income. That means the Bain partners saved more than $200 million in federal income taxes and more than $20 million in Medicare taxes.

LOCAL BRIEFING Police say man brandished gun A Klamath County man was arrested early Saturday on charges of attempted murder after he allegedly pointed a gun at two men outside a La Pine bar.

John Kyle Gilpin, 64, was arrested at the La Pine Inn shortly after 1:30 a.m. and lodged at the Deschutes County jail. He is being held on suspicion of attempted murder, unlawful use of a weapon, three counts each of recklessly endangering another and menacing, and driving under the influence of intoxicants.

The Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office said Gilpin had been involved in a dispute at the bar around 1 a.m. He left the bar and returned about half an hour later carrying a rifle.

Gilpin pointed the rifle at the heads of two men who were trying to talk him into putting it away.

A bar patron subdued and disarmed Gilpin, and deputies arrived to take him in to custody.

Public Pool levy would cut jail funds comment sought on landfill gas plan MADRAS

By Joel Aschbrenner The Bulletin

Because of an Oregon law that caps property taxes, the approval of a levy to fund Madras’ public pool would mean less revenue for the Jefferson County Jail and other local taxing entities.

Madras area voters will decide in November on a fiveyear levy for additional operating funds for the Madras Aquatic Center.

Aquatic center supporters say the levy is an investment in the community, and is critical to keeping the pool open year-round and funding

athletic leagues.

Opponents say the pool is a luxury, and additional funding for the aquatic center shouldn’t come at the expense of the jail.

Any new tax levy on Jefferson County’s books would result in less revenue for existing tax levies and districts due to a process called compression, said county Assessor Jean McCloskey.

Property taxes are limited to $10 per $1,000 in real market value for local government and $5 per $1,000 for schools. To stay within those

limits, tax rates are proportionally reduced.

Revenue is cut for levies first, then, if needed, for taxing districts.

Last year 30 percent of the properties in Jefferson County were in compression, including 78 percent of those in Madras, McCloskey said.

The aquatic center’s taxing district is the same as the Jefferson County School District, encompassing Madras and the town’s outlying areas, where properties are more likely to be in compression, she said.

Susan Rife, of Bend, from right, her daughter Emma Stevenson, and Nancy Heck, of Terrebonne, stomp grapes Saturday inside a container in which they will be fermented and made into wine, at Maragas Winery in Culver. Both Rife and Heck said the activity was on their respective bucket lists.

An old-fashioned crush at Central Oregon winery

By Scott Hammers The Bulletin

CULVER — In recent years, Nancy Heck has knocked several items off her to-do list — going skydiving, visiting the top of the Empire State Building, and attending a taping of the “Today Show.”

On Saturday, she checked off one more, crushing grapes into juice with her bare feet at the Maragas Winery Grape Stomp.

“I’ve wanted to do it ever since I watched ‘I Love Lucy,’ ” Heck said.

Owner Doug Maragas has invited the public to stomp grapes at his vineyard and winery between Redmond and Madras every fall for each of the past three years, an event he describes as a celebration of the harvest.

In truth, the grapes grown

Unlike mechanized crushers, human feet won’t split the tiny seeds inside the grapes, winery owner Doug Maragas said, which introduces bitter tannins into the final product.

at the Maragas vineyard won’t be fully ripe for another month, he said, but the slightly underripe fruit is an integral part of Beat Red, the wine that begins with each

year’s Grape Stomp.

Crushing the fruit the old-fashioned way is more practical than it might appear, Maragas said. The mechanized crusher the win-

ery uses won’t run properly with only a small quantity of grapes — small being a relative term. A batch of Beat Red uses a full ton of grapes — making the foot method a reasonable alternative. And unlike mechanized crushers, human feet won’t split the tiny seeds inside the grapes, Maragas said, which introduces bitter tannins into the final product.

More than anything, the event is a fun day, Maragas said, especially for the dozens of kids who get to take a turn stomping away inside giant plastic bins of grapes.

“I made sure I sifted all of the bugs out,” Maragas announced to a group of kids that stopped briefly to look down at their wet feet. “Except for a few!”

Before Deschutes County taps its garbage dump for natural gas, it plans to talk with the landfill’s neighbors and explain why the project won’t sully the air and water in the area.

The county has discussed the potential landfill gas-to-energy project for more than a year, but at a county workshop meeting last week, commissioners asked Timm Schimke, department of solid waste director, to meet with the public.

“We could go to the board and present a contract right now,” said interim county administrator Erik Kropp. “But there really needs to be more public dialogue and public input. And we want to make that meaningful input. So we will provide a forum to help educate the public on the plan.”

Commissioners said they’ve received one complaint about the project.

David Poboisk, a resident near the landfill, is concerned about groundwater and air pollution.

Schimke said he doubts the project will affect either, as the dump is below federal emission levels and checks its groundwater frequently.

“We want everyone including neighbors, environmentalists and anyone who just wants to know what we’re doing to come talk with us,” Schimke said. “Signing that contract will be a big step, and you don’t want to stop after you commit, so we want everyone to know what is going on.”

The contract would be between the county and Waste to Energy Group LLC. The company plans to inject steam into the landfill to increase the decomposition rate of waste and boost methane gas production.

The company would then collect the gas and tap into a Pacific Gas Transmission pipeline that runs across the landfill property.

The county expects it will collect around $250,000 each year from the company’s efforts.

Schimke said that is about 10 percent of the company’s expected net income, which he believes is a fair rate.

Public meetings are expected to be held later this month. A final proposal for the contract will likely go before the County commissioners in December.

Drillers find water to delight of Oregonians in 1912 Compiled by Don Hoiness from archived copies of The Bulletin at the Des Chutes Historical Museum.

100 YEARS AGO For the week ending Sept. 1, 1912

Well drillers strike water The most important single achievement in the history of the southeast homestead country was accomplished

YESTERDAY last week when a permanent water supply was obtained by well diggers at Hampton. The new well is 167 feet deep, and has from 20 to 40 feet of water, with every indication of an inexhaustible supply.

As a result of the “strike”, which proves that water is obtainable with little difficulty throughout the free-land territory, a renewed interest in

getting these last untaken acres from the government is manifested, and what promises to be a considerable land rush is under way. There is, of course, jubilation among the homesteaders already on claims, and it is understood that the well drilling company is “swamped” with orders from settlers who want wells sunk on their property.

Hampton, where the new well is, is about 70 miles southeast of Bend. The well

is on the Bend-Burns road. It has been dug at the expense of the county. The County Court recently having agreed to devote $1,000 if necessary, to securing a well there, not only for its benefits to the settlers and to ascertain the cost of obtaining a permanent supply, but also to serve as a watering point for the heavy freight traffic between Bend and Burns. J.E. Sawhill, of the Central Oregon Development League, the Bend Com-

mercial Club, and many local merchants and others had much to do with having the well drilled, it, however, being the direct outcome of the progressiveness of the Hampton country settlers and the wise action of the County Court.

A.T. Shaver is at the head of the well drilling outfit. Water was struck at 167 feet, and now stands 24 feet deep. The total expense of the experiment has been but $332.50.

Madras Continued from B1 Sheriff Jim Adkins said he opposes the pool levy because it would increase compression and reduce revenue for a jail levy. Depending on how much revenue the jail levy loses, he would have to cut staff and reduce jail capacity, he said.

“I think having the pool is spectacular for the community, but is it a necessity? No, I don’t think it is,” he said.

“Putting people in jail when they do something wrong is a necessity.”

Last year, seven tax levies in the county lost out on revenue due to compression, McCloskey said. The jail levy brought in $1.2 million, about $215,000 less than expected due to compression, she said.

McCloskey said she did not know how much revenue from the jail levy would be reduced if the pool levy passes, because compression would have to be figured for each individual property.

“I have no crystal ball to look into,” she said.

The aquatic center has Madras’ only public pools and serves as the town’s recreation department, organizing youth and adult sports leagues. Without the levy,

Foot-stomped wine, even when foot-stomped by a crowd of hundreds, is no less sanitary than any other wine a winery might produce, Maragas said.

Yesterday Continued from B1 The well drilling cost $250, wood and water 56.50 and board 26.

The well remains the property of the county. Just how it will be managed is as yet undecided, but probably someone will be in charge and water will be sold to settlers and freighters for just enough to cover actual operating expenses. A gasoline or other engine probably will be employed for the pumping.

The new well will be a boon of tremendous worth to Hampton and all the homestead territory, as it permanently solves any water difficulties which existed. It probably also means that hereafter far more attention will be paid to acquiring tracts under the desert land laws.

75 YEARS AGO For the week ending Sept. 1, 1937

Mashed potatoes served in cones for pictures Three sacks of Deschutes netted gem potatoes cooked in a huge kettle over an outdoor fire and kneaded into a fluffy white mass formed the background for a Universal News film made here today by Carlton Groat.

Seventeen girls assisted in serving the delicious mashed potatoes, coated with butter, to Pilot Butte Inn patrons and others who formed a line past the great heap of potatoes. The buttered potatoes were served in ice cream cones. By tomorrow morning, this news picture will be on its way by airmail to New York and will be released by the Universal News to theaters in all parts of the country.

Tomorrow, another picture will be filmed amid the rock gardens of the Pilot Butte Inn, depicting a ceremonial in connection with the crowning of a queen for the opening of Central Oregon’s deer season.

In this picture, girls bearing antlers will pay homage to the deer queen. However, before the picture can be made, more deer horns will be needed and a call for antlers has been issued.

Bend residents having fine sets of antlers they can spare for an hour or so have been asked to attach their names to the horns

All Bend residents contributing antlers for the making of the deer picture will be welcome to view the filming of the scene on the rear lawn of the Pilot Butte Inn. Work of making the deer queen picture will start about 8:30 o’clock tomorrow morning.

Since coming to Bend more than two months ago, Groat has found the Deschutes country such a fine field for news movie work that he has filmed more than 20 pictures here.

These pictures have gone to all parts of the United States.

Assisting in the making of the potato picture today were Helen Mirich, June Olson, Helen Wetle, Betty Jean DeArmond, Bonnie Van Matre , Martha Gassner, Rosemary Cashman, Ione Ring, Doris Van Tassel, Lorraine Ring, Nadine Paddon, Barbara Fuller, Dorothy Jane McReynolds, Geraldine Sexton, Collona Spangler, Melba Smith, Hallie Dudrey, and Margaret Harland.

Stalin’s purge conducted in greatest secrecy During Josef Stalin’s historic struggle with Leon Trotsky 10 years ago the workers of Leningrad presented him with a steel broom. The broom was a symbol of the necessity of “cleansing” the communist party.

Today Dictator Stalin is using it with a vengeance.

The purge which he began in the Soviet Union three months ago has extended from generals of the red army to dramatists and writers; from chiefs of industry to directors of theaters and even the directors of amusement parks.

Information about the true extent of the current “blood purge” is hard to get, but available compilations indicate that about 500 persons have been executed by firing squads.

Tens of thousands have been arrested, exiled or dismissed from their posts.

50 YEARS AGO For the week ending Sept. 1, 1962

Bend pioneer Ovid Riley dies at age 87 A pioneer of Central Oregon, Ovid William Brockett Riley,

been introduced during the stomping.

Outside the grape-stomping tent, a crowd of a few hundred spent the day picnicking and sampling wine on the grounds of the vineyard.

Enjoying a glass of wine outside in the sun, Heck said the experience was almost everything she’d hoped for since seeing Lucille Ball do it on television years ago.

87, who came to the Deschutes country in 1893 at the age of 18 to file on a homestead, died early this morning at St. Charles Memorial Hospital.

He was the dean of Bend pioneers.

A native of Ohio, Mr. Riley was born July 27, 1875 and came west with his parents from Kansas when Prineville was Central Oregon’s only town and the present location of Bend was a stopping place on the Deschutes known as Farewell Bend. Mr. Riley on reaching the age of 21, filed on a homestead on the river a short distance to the north of Bend of the present.

His mother, the late Elsie Riley, came to Bend in 1901. The family home was in an old log cabin on the river, at the homestead. Elsie Riley was one of the early-day operators of the pioneer Pilot Butte Inn, stopping place for stockmen and freighters. She took over the management of the Inn in 1904, when a livery stable was operated in connection with the hotel.

North-south traffic moved past the old stopping place, with the dust from wagon wheels spreading over the building as long as freight teams plodded past.

Ovid Riley was married in 1917 to Miss Alice Ward, by whom he is survived. Her sister is Mrs. Everett Hughes of this city. Miss Ward and Ovid Riley first met when she was a member of a party on a vacation trip to Crane Prairie, when Mr. Riley operated cattle from the Cow Camp.

In 1921, Mr. Riley moved from his ranch to Bend, to join the Shevlin-Hixon staff. He remained with the company until the mill closed in 1950. In his younger days, Mr. Riley was a well known horseman of the area.

Mr. Riley was a member of the Deschutes Pioneers’ Association.

hitch, as most cheated like they were supposed to.

“There was no winner, or loser, for that matter. But it was a smashing success,” said Bob Ward, publicity agent for the Crooked River Ranch resort.

“You’d look at the profile of that starting line — it was scary,” he said.

Every finisher who made it slightly more than a mile downhill to the finish line at the Sandbagger Saloon got a free beer and a Twinkie.

Some of the rotund runners — make that walkers — took no chances, bringing beer and snacks of their own, in case hunger pangs struck.

Several television crews and reporters were on hand for the race, inspired by a similar semi-athletic event at a tavern in Skaneateles, N.Y. near Syracuse.

Anxious contestants butted bellies at the starting line.

“The final rules said, ‘Make good moves. Cheat vigorously.

Down with diet. Up with short and fat!’ ” Ward said.

There was only one rule that couldn’t be broken: Race participants had to have a waist measurement at last 4 ½ inches larger than their pants inseam measure. Anyone under 7 feet was considered “short.”

“Everybody had the same number: 102. That way it didn’t cost so much to print them,” said Ward.

Stan Stevenson, public works director for Redmond, was “far and away the largest” competitor at 460 pounds and a 66-inch waist, he said.

“Everybody made the first hundred yards or so on foot, except the guy with the horse,” he said.

With cheating actively encouraged one scofflaw took a shortcut to the eighth tee of the adjacent golf course, where he hitched a ride to the finish line in a golf cart.

“One guy used a skateboard, another a bicycle and several had golf carts,” Ward said.

Contestants gathered at the “shortstop line” 50 yards from the actual finish for an en masse jaunt to the saloon — to the sound of a bugle charge.

Everyone’s time for the 1.1 mile race was 27 minutes 33 seconds, Ward said.

“Nobody was really hurrying,” he said. “We hope to make it a little slower next year.”

P O LEGISLATURE

Crush

the aquatic center would have to close down for several months a year, Manager Bobby DeRoest has said.

In 2004, voters approved a permanent levy of 25 cents per $1,000 in assessed property value to build and operate the aquatic center.

November’s levy would tack on 40 cents per $1,000.

The levy is needed to fund repairs at the aquatic center and to maintain athletic leagues, said Lonnie Henderson, co-chair of the Back the MAC political action committee. Adult softball, youth soccer and other leagues are currently funded by a declining grant.

While the jail levy is a concern for some, funding the pool and sports leagues is important to keep kids involved, said Henderson, whose son competes in water polo and swimming at the aquatic center.

“We want to keep them out of jail by keeping them involved,” he said.

The pools and sports leagues, Henderson added, are also critical to promoting healthier lifestyles. Jefferson County was the least healthy of 33 Oregon counties ranked in the 2012 Robert Wood Johnson Foundation survey.

O N Retirees in rural areas likely Ashland considers to find shortage of doctors a homeless camp

By Jeff Barnard The Associated Press

GRANTS PASS — Nina Musselman had no trouble finding a family doctor when she retired to rural Oregon nine years ago to be closer to her children. But then that doctor moved away, leaving her to search for another who would take Medicare.

After a year of going from doctor to doctor, she finally found one who stuck.

As record numbers of baby boomers go into retirement, many are thinking about moving from the places they needed to live to make a living, and going someplace warmer, quieter or prettier.

If they choose small towns like Grants Pass, 250 miles south of Portland, they could well have a hard time finding a family doctor willing to take Medicare, even supplemental plans, rather than private insurance.

“It’s a sad situation for seniors,” she said.

There are several reasons boomers, the 78 million Americans born between 1946 and 1964, could face difficulties finding a doctor if they retire to small towns over the next 20 years.

First, many primary care doctors prefer to live and work in urban areas because of greater cultural opportunities, better schools and job opportunities for spouses.

Also, Medicare pays rural doctors less per procedure than urban physicians because their operating costs are supposedly less. That makes rural doctors less likely to accept Medicare patients.

With cuts to Medicare reimbursement for doctors targeted under the federal health care overhaul, the shortage is likely to get even worse, said Mark Pauly, professor of health care management at the University of Pennsylvania.

That is, unless increasing reimbursements for nurse practitioners and physicians’ assistants encourages those providers to take up the slack, Pauly said.

If the Medicare cuts go through, “the doctors are saying: “We’re out of here,’” Pauly said. “The least they are saying is: ‘We’ll treat Medicare patients like we treat Medicaid patients,’ which is mostly not.”

Still, there is some good news, depending on where you live.

Pauly said the Affordable Care Act “puts a lot of emphasis on wellness programs and primary care. Nurses, especially nurse practitioners, are intended to play a major role there.”

In Oregon, Washington and 14 other states, nurses and nurse practitioners “can operate independently of doctors, writing prescriptions, ordering tests, and even running clinics,” Pauly said.

Dr. Bruce Stowell examines patient Robert Busch at his office in Grants Pass. Stowell is among many doctors in rural areas who have capped the numbers of Medicare patients they take due to low reimbursement levels. A nationwide shortage of primary care physicians willing to set up practice in rural areas is making the problem worse.

“We used to get a steady stream of high-quality (résumés) from U.S.-trained and U.S.-born physicians. Over the last year, that stream has declined into a trickle. Very few (doctors) are choosing to go into primary care.”

— Dr. Bruce Stowell, Grants Pass clinic

Nationwide, the 22.5 percent of primary care doctors who practice in rural areas roughly matches the 24 percent of Medicare patients living there, said Dr. Roland Goertz, chairman of the American Academy of Family Physicians board.

A survey of academy members nationwide shows 83 percent take new Medicare patients. But there is an overall shortage of primary care physicians that still makes it hard for retirees to find a family doctor.

The real problem, he said, is that the health care system “has not supported a robust, adequate primary care workforce for over 30 years.”

According to the American Association of Medical Colleges, rural areas need about 20,000 primary care doctors to make up for the shortages, but only about 16,500 medical doctors and 3,500 doctors of osteopathy graduate yearly.

“We are always trying to recruit doctors. We are barely

keeping even,” said Lyle Jackson, the medical director at the Mid-Rogue Independent Physician Association, a cooperative of doctors in Josephine County, where Musselman lives.

Taking part in the Medicare Advantage program, which pays a higher rate to doctors than standard Medicare, helps, but is still not enough, said Jackson, a former family physician.

A 2009 survey of doctors in the Oregon Medical Association showed concern over Medicare reimbursement rates topping the list of 23 issues, with 79 percent rating it as very important, said Joy Conklin, an official at the association.

The survey showed 19.1 percent of Oregon doctors had closed their practices to Medicare, and 28.1 percent had restricted the numbers of Medicare patients.

That really becomes evident in Josephine County, which attracted retirees after the timber industry collapsed.

Low taxes, cheap housing, wineries, a symphony and low traffic put it in top 10 lists for retirement communities. The 2010 census puts the number of people older than 65 at 23 percent, compared to 14 percent for the state.

But the website County Health Rankings & Roadmaps, which gathers a wide range of health care data nationwide, shows 933 patients for every primary care physician in the county, nearly 50 percent higher than the national 631-to-one rate.

At the Grants Pass Clinic, Dr. Bruce Stowell said they are no longer taking new Medicare patients. Medicare pays about 45 percent of what commercial insurance pays.

As it is, their proportion of Medicare patients is double that of a similar Portland practice.

“We used to get a steady stream of high-quality (résumés) from U.S.-trained and U.S.-born physicians,” he said.

“Over the last year, that stream has declined into a trickle.

Very few (doctors) are choosing to go into primary care.”

Schools are turning out more nurse practitioners and physician assistants.

How well they fill the doctor gap will depend largely on how much independence states give them to practice, said Tay Kopanos, director of health care policy for state affairs at the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners.

Meanwhile, overall demand for primary care will be increasing as more people can afford it under the Affordable Care Act, said Joanne Spetz, a health care policy professor at the University of California, San Francisco.

Dr. Atul Grover, chief of public policy for the American Association of Medical Colleges, said the nation is facing a tough time recruiting for primary care as well as other specialties that treat Medicare patients, such as oncologists.

When he decided to become a primary care doctor in the 1990s, it was because of a widespread belief that health maintenance organizations were going to be hiring all the doctors.

He said they wanted primary care doctors to emphasize wellness and prevention.

Now, many graduates are moving into specialties that do procedures, such as surgery, because Medicare pays more for them than plain-old office visits.

Also, the Balanced Budget Act of 1997 capped the number of residencies paid by Medicare, so there is no quick way to increase the numbers of doctors in general, let alone in rural areas, he said.

“An entire year’s worth of doctor production is needed to deal with the (rural-area) shortage just today,” he said.

The Associated Press ASHLAND — Three representatives from Portland’s Dignity Village homeless encampment plan to visit Ashland later this month to discuss whether a similar setup would benefit the Southern Oregon city.

The Dignity Village representatives will have discussions with the community and City Council, the Ashland Daily Tidings reported Saturday.

Organizers in Ashland have raised $360 to fund the visit.

“We have people in Ashland who believe this should be thought about and discussed,” said Sangye Tendzin, a member of the Ashland Citizens for the Homeless Coalition. “If Portland has a model that works, then we can scale it here.”

Dignity Village was founded in 2000 when eight homeless men and women decided to pitch tents on public land, saying they had nowhere else to go. It quickly evolved into a self-regulating, cityrecognized “campground,” and was given a patch of land near Portland International Airport.

Dignity Village offers its 60 occupants showers, a kitchen

area, Internet access and emergency transportation.

The village, which harbors tarp-tents, straw-bale bungalows, teepees, wooden shacks and pitched tents, costs about $3,000 a month to maintain, its website states, which it finds through donations.

Children are not allowed to live in the village, and members must abide by rules against violence, drugs, stealing and disruptive behavior.

Tendzin visited the encampment in July and provided a report to Ashland’s Homelessness Steering Committee — a panel that makes recommendations to the City Council on how to address homeless issues.

Councilwoman Carol Voisin said a Dignity Villagetype arrangement could benefit Ashland, but only if the local homeless community is willing to make it work.

Tendzin believes there are enough “self-determined,” homeless people in Ashland to support a place like Dignity Village, but he acknowledges there will be opposition, too.

“The community has to want an encampment for this to work,” he said. “These discussions will be a good opportunity for understanding.”

State probes campaign of Klamath County sheriff The Associated Press KLAMATH FALLS — State election officials have started a criminal investigation into the campaign of Klamath County Sheriff Tim Evinger, who decided to run as a write-in candidate after skipping the May primaries.

The investigation stems from an Aug. 16 complaint, the Herald and News of Klamath Falls reported Saturday.

State investigators, however, have declined to say who filed the complaint or discuss many details.

Alana Cox, an election compliance specialist with

the state, said the investigation will take into account a law that prohibits anyone from using incentives or threats to sway how or whether someone votes or registers to run for office.

Medford schools to enter mediation MEDFORD — The state will provide a mediator to help stalled talks between the Medford School District and its classified employees.

The sides have been discussing a contract since April, and the Mail Tribune newspaper reports that medical insurance is the main sticking point.

The district wants the classified employees to pay 16 percent of their insurance premiums, with the district covering the remaining 84 percent.

The union says that’s unfair because teachers and administrators only pay 7 percent of their premiums.

Classified employees include office workers and janitors, among other positions.

The district says about 28 percent of classified employees work full-time for 10 months, earning about $28,400 a year, not including benefits.

Another 18 percent are full-

time employees who work yearround, earning about $34,500 a year.

Marion County workers to strike SALEM — County employees in Marion County have voted to go on strike, though they have yet to hit the picket lines.

The Marion County Employee Association says the county’s contract offer includes no cost of living adjustment or other concessions to the union.

County spokeswoman Jolene Kelley told the Statesman Journal newspaper that the union must give the county an official 10-day notice before going on strike, and it has yet to do so.

The union is an affiliate of SEIU Local 503.

It has been negotiating its 2012-14 contract since Dec. 15.

In a press release, union Vice President Sara Fillion said the strike was supported by about two-thirds of the union members who voted.

Hynix sues Eugene over power outage EUGENE — Four years after closing its Eugene plant, Hynix Semiconductor has filed a $1.1 million lawsuit against the Eugene Water & Electric Board.

The company and two insurers claim vibrations from a drill used by utility workers triggered a brief power outage in 2007 that damaged manufacturing equipment and semiconductor wafers.

The suit was filed Aug. 20 and became public Friday in Lane County Circuit Court.

EWEB spokesman Joe Harwood told The Register-Guard newspaper the utility will not publicly discuss pending litigation.

The plant employed as many as 1,000 people before closing in 2008. The company cited a weak market for its chips and an industry shift to more advanced processes.

T W Dog trained to track scat helps scientists study orcas

By Kirk Johnson New York Times News Service

OFF THE COAST OF SAN JUAN ISLAND, Wash.

— A dog named Tucker with a thumping tail and a mysterious past as a stray on the streets of Seattle has become an unexpected star in the realm of canine-assisted science. He is the world’s only working dog, marine biologists say, able to find and track the scent of orca scat, or feces, in open ocean water — up to a mile away, in the smallest of specks.

Through dint of hard work and obsession with an orange ball on a rope, which he gets to play with as a reward after a successful search on the water, Tucker is an ace in finding something that most people, and perhaps most dogs, would just as soon avoid.

And it is not easy. Scat can sink or disperse in 30 minutes or less. But it is crucial in monitoring the health of the whales here, an endangered group that is probably among the most studied animal populations in the world. Most of the 85 or so orcas, or killer whales, that frequent the San Juans, about two hours northwest of Seattle, have been genotyped and tracked for decades, down to their birth years and number of offspring.

And none of this could happen as easily as it does without Tucker and his wet, black nose — or the new tricks that he taught the scientists.

“Sometimes he’d just turn around and sit down and stare at me, waiting for me to figure it out,” said Deborah Giles, who is completing a Ph.D. on how orcas here are affected by the thousands of whale watchers and scores of commercial whale-watch vessels that cluster around the animals. “He’s very subtle,” said Giles, sitting behind the wheel of the research vessel Moja as Tucker, an 8-year-old black Lab mix, paced at the prow on a recent afternoon.

One thing to get out of the way quickly: Orca scat really does not smell that bad. Perhaps because the animals eat mostly Chinook salmon — the tastiest kind, many human seafood lovers agree — the scent is more fish than foul.

But unlike, say, a narcotics-sniffing dog that can lead its human around by a leash, the research boat itself is, in effect, Tucker’s legs when he has picked up the aroma. He cannot physically go where the sample is to be found, but must somehow signal where

Elizabeth Seely, dog trainer at Conservation Canines, holds Tucker as he sniffs for whale scat near San Juan Island, Wash. Tucker is the world’s only working dog able to find and track the scent of orca scat, or feces, in open ocean water, marine biologists say, which is crucial in monitoring the health of endangered orca whales.

he wants the boat to go, with the feces somewhere out there on the water.

Like a Delphic oracle whose every nuanced expression must be interpreted by acolytes — Tucker might lean to one side of the boat, then another, then suddenly sink back onto his green mat with his head between his paws, the scent lost — his nose for scat leads on, and all must follow.

“The slightest twitch of his ear is important,” said Elizabeth Seely, a trainer who has worked with Tucker for four years at a nonprofit group called the Conservation Canines, which specializes in dog-assisted research on behalf of endangered species. She stood at his side on a recent scat-search session, signaling to Giles behind the wheel with tiny finger motions — a bit to the right, a bit more to the left, circle back — that Tucker was suggesting by his posture and level of attention.

Out on these waters, though, it seems that every creature is learning new tricks. Salmon have taken to hiding under commercial whale-watch boats when they are being hunted by the orcas. The boats, in turn, are filled with people — upward of 500,000 during the peak season from May to October — who have paid to see whales and who in many cases, boat operators and scientists say, return home wanting somehow to help the animals. Whale-loving visitors in turn reinforce

a local economic engine that hinges more and more on having whales to see.

The whales are becoming, in a strange way, more in sync with the rhythms of their human watchers — resting less during daylight and more at night than they used to in the 1980s or ’90s. As part of her dissertation at the University of California, Davis, Giles is examining reduced prey availability and increased vessel presence as potential causes.

For Tucker, though, it mostly comes down to his ball toy, which he plays with in exuberant, wild abandon, tossing it into the air and staging crouched bouts of tug of war with Seely. When a fecal sample is found, the researchers carry it toward him and then substitute the ball at the last second, reinforcing the connection between work and reward.

Another scat dog in training, a flat-coated retriever named Sadie, was donated to the program by an owner who could not deal with her ball fixation. In frustration, the owner put Sadie’s ball on top of the fridge. Eight hours or so later, she returned and found Sadie still sitting there, staring up at the object of her desires.

“When the owner told me that story, my immediate response was, ‘We’ll take her,’ ” said Samuel K. Wasser, the director of the Center for Conservation Biology at the University of Washington and the director of the orca scat re-

search project.

The research, financed by Washington Sea Grant of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, is raising new questions about how to protect the orcas. Wasser said that when he started the project four years ago, he thought boat activity would be a crucial element of whale stress, reflected through stress hormones in their scat. But it turned out, he said, that food supply was more important, with fewer salmon — because of overfishing by humans or habitat degradation or both — emerging as a main stress variable. Knowing to focus on fish supply, he said, means knowing where to focus public policy efforts on the animals’ behalf.

Through the scat, biologists can tell, for example, which whale pods spend the winter off the coast of Southern California, because their feces can contain higher trace elements of DDT, the pesticide that was banned in 1972. The poison still echoes through the decades in the fish the whales eat before returning north.

Other orca groups have concentrations of dioxins or PCBs traced to industrial activity around Seattle.

But for all his hundreds of hours on boats, Tucker will not get wet. He hates to swim, Seely said. She is not sure why. A trauma from puppyhood, she supposes. It is one thing about which he cannot communicate.

Homeowners knock Shell cleanup of oil residue

By Sandy Mazza (Torrance) Daily Breeze

LOS ANGELES — Considering what was discovered this week in front of Sonia Cienfuegos’ Carson home in the Los Angeles area, she might not let her children play in the yard anymore.

The finding is the latest glaring reminder of the environmental disaster lurking just a few feet below ground at the 50-acre Carousel tract housing development near where Lomita and Avalon boulevards cross.

On Thursday, environmental investigators examined the problem inside a crib-size hole dug by utility workers in the pavement outside the Cienfuegos home. A few feet below the asphalt, a black, shiny, rubbery substance gurgled from dime-size holes into the pit. Investigators held detectors with gloved hands around the hole and sampled it carefully.

“Oh, my God, how terrible,” Cienfuegos said. “I just wanna leave.”

The discovery of an oillike contaminant under the Carousel tract isn’t new, but this is the first time investigators have witnessed it moving through the ground in globs.

Oily sludge is so profoundly mixed with the soil below the

Advocates fight to keep L.A.’s pot shops open

Carousel tract’s 285 homes that a swift wind there commonly holds the stinging scent of petroleum. The contamination has been there since a Shell Oil Co. tank farm was closed in the 1960s. A clean-up effort has been in the works for the past three years, but cleaning has yet to begin.

Shell spokesman Alan Caldwell said the company has not yet determined what the substance found this week is.

“It is a tarry-like substance, and it appears to be very small in quantity,” Caldwell said.

“They’ve sent it off to the laboratory to be sampled. We’re trying to assess if it’s from the oil reservoirs or from grading and site development.”

Bob Bowcock, founder of Integrated Resource Management Inc., was contracted to do soil testing for the law firm representing residents in a suit alleging cancer, strokes and other health problems resulting from the soil contamination. Bowcock said the movement of the oil-like substance seen in the pit this week shows that the situation underground is volatile because of all the hazardous chemicals. A flame could cause an explosion if enough methane pools into one area underground, he said.

“You’ve got bioventing (testing) going on there and a hole here — we don’t know where the methane is migrating,” Bowcock said. “The migration is unknown, and that’s why they’ve got to stop leaving these people in their homes.”

The agency overseeing the clean-up process — the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board — has ordered Shell to clean up the soil, rather than pay residents for their homes and flatten the site. The water board has ordered extensive testing inside and outside homes, and to 10 feet below ground, and has not yet found a risk to human health. Recently, the board announced that a panel of experts had been contracted to oversee several agencies involved in cleanup plans.

Shell operated an oil tank farm on the site from the 1920s to the 1960s. The tanks were demolished after a boy fell into one and died while playing with a friend.

A few years later, the Carousel tract housing development was approved there — even though the oil tank remnants and oil waste were only shabbily covered by a few feet of top soil, according to investigators.

The contamination was

rediscovered by oil company workers several years ago, and the cleanup ensued. It has moved slowly, and a pilot test program on several homes has yet to begin. In the meantime, residents have erected lawn signs proclaiming their unhappiness with Shell’s decision to clean the soil while they live there.

Cienfuegos said she and her husband wanted to expand their two-bedroom home to four bedrooms because they have three children. But the contamination made that impossible.

“When I bought my house, this was the house I was planning to grow my family in,” she said. “Then this happened.

They suggested not to let the kids outside, but my son loves to play basketball. And I can’t move out because my house has no value now.”

Shell will test several cleaning strategies at a handful of homes in the neighborhood.

Cleaning could be done by digging narrow, deep holes and removing debris with backhoes, or by digging one huge hole that gets progressively smaller with depth. Once Shell officials determine the best cleaning method, they will submit a final work plan to the water board for approval.

LOS ANGELES — Medical marijuana advocates said Wednesday they have collected 50,000 signatures on petitions in an effort to overturn the city of Los Angeles’ ban on pot dispensaries that takes effect next month.

If the signatures are validated after they are formally submitted, it will put the city’s ban — scheduled to take effect Thursday — on hold until the March 5 municipal election.

Don Duncan, California director of Americans for Safe Access, urged the City Council to repeal its own ordinance and return to negotiating with medical marijuana advocates.

“Very soon, the city will be faced with having to rescind its ordinance or put the decision before Los Angeles voters,” Duncan said. “Because of the ban’s questionable future, the city ought to reconsider its tough stance on enforcing the ban.”

Councilman Jose Huizar, who wrote the citywide ban on the dispensaries, said he remained undeterred by the threat of the referendum.

“We still plan to move forward with the idea that dispensaries do not have a right to exist,” Huizar said.

“If there is a stay on the ordinance, we will have no law in the city allowing the dispensaries and we will enforce state and federal laws on marijuana.”

There also has been an ongoing dispute between the state and federal authorities on the issue.

California voters approved medical marijuana under Proposition 215, but national authorities say marijuana remains outlawed under federal law.

Huizar said the city has tried to work with the med-

ical marijuana community without success.

“We passed a measure that we thought worked, and we were hit with 70 lawsuits,” Huizar said. “It strikes me this is more about profit than getting marijuana to people who need it.”

Huizar called his proposal a gentle ban in that it allowed patients and caregivers to grow marijuana on their own without punishment.

Kris Hermes, spokesman for Americans for Safe Access, said the number of signatures and the ease with which they were gathered should send a message to City Hall. They only needed 28,000 signatures to qualify for the ballot.

“The patients and advocates have come forward and said the ban is unacceptable and should be reconsidered,” Hermes said, adding the city chose to avoid considering ordinances from other cities that would have been acceptable.

Assistant City Clerk Holly Wolcott said the city will randomly sample the signatures to determine if the referendum qualifies for the ballot. It would be placed on the regularly scheduled March ballot to avoid additional costs.

LOS ANGELES — Hal David, the stylish, heartfelt lyricist who teamed with Burt Bacharach on dozens of timeless songs for movies, television and a variety of recording artists in the 1960s and beyond, has died.

He was 91.

David died of complications from a stroke Saturday morning at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, according to his wife, Eunice David.

He had suffered a major stroke in March and was stricken again Tuesday, she said. “Even at the end, Hal always had a song in his head,�

Eunice David said. “He was always writing notes, or asking me to take a note down, so he wouldn’t forget a lyric.�

Bacharach and David were among the most successful teams in modern history, with top 40 hits including “Raindrops Keep Fallin’ On My Head,� “Close to You� and “That’s What Friends Are For.�

Although most associated with Dionne Warwick, their music was recorded by many of the top acts of their time, from the Beatles and Barbra Streisand to Frank Sinatra and Aretha Franklin. They won an Oscar for “Raindrops Keep Fallin’ on My Head� (from the movie “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid�) and Grammys and Tonys for the songs from the hit Broadway musical “Promises, Promises.�

David joined the board of the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers in 1974 and served as president 1980 to 1986. He was head of the Songwriters Hall of Fame from 2001 to 2011, and was Chairman Emeritus at his death. “As a lyric writer, Hal was simple, concise and poetic —

conveying volumes of meaning in the fewest possible words and always in service to the music,�

ASCAP’s current president, the songwriter Paul Williams, said in a statement. “It is no wonder that so many of his lyrics have become part of our everyday vocabulary and his songs ... the backdrop of our lives.�

In May, Bacharach and David received the Library of Congress Gershwin Prize for Popular Song during a White House tribute concert attended

by President Barack Obama.

Bacharach, 83, thanked Obama, saying the award for his life’s work topped even the Oscars and Grammys he won for individual projects. David could not attend because he was recovering from a stroke.

Eunice David accepted on his behalf. “It was thrilling,� she said. “Even though he wasn’t there, Hal said it was the highest honor he had ever received.�

More than 55 years after their first songs hit the airwaves, Obama said “these guys have still got it.� He noted their music is still being recorded by such artists as Alicia Keys and John Legend. “Above all, they stayed true to themselves,� Obama said. “And with an unmistakable authenticity, they captured the emotions of our daily lives — the good times, the bad times, and everything in between.�

David and Bacharach met when both worked in the Brill Building, New York’s legendary Tin Pan Alley song factory where writers cranked out songs and attempted to sell them to music publishers. They scored their first big hit with “Magic Moments,� a millionselling record for Perry Como.

In a 1999 interview, David explained his success as a lyricist this way: “Try and tell a narrative. The songs should be like a little film, told in three or four minutes. Try to say things as simply as possible, which is probably the most difficult thing to do.�

The writer, who lived in New York, often flew to Los Angeles, where he and Bacharach would hole up for a few weeks of intense songwriting. Sometimes they conferred by longdistance telephone; “I Say a Little Prayer� was written that way.

Corvallis Gazette-Times

CORVALLIS — An advocate for Corvallis’ bike community found a way to alleviate the issue of broken glass debris that many cyclists say litter the city’s bike lanes.

Dan Crall, owner and operator of Corvallis Pedicab and a bicycle commuter, made a $140 personal investment in mini plastic brooms and dust pans on Aug. 1 and gave them to cyclists to use when they notice glass in their paths of travel. “It’s a pretty small price to pay for what an effect this could have,� Crall said. “It’s something I see so often, and I know there is an immediate solution to it. I wanted to make it happen.�

The idea was conceived around 2006 when Crall began to notice glass near where he lived along Highway 99.

He eventually decided to take a push broom on walks and began to clean it up. “This is one of those things where I feel like it has been a big enough problem, and I have enough financial resources as a business person to put into this,� he said. “This is a town of people who care, and I really wanted to tap into that by doing this.�

The mini yellow brooms

“It’s been pretty positive,�

Crall said of the general reaction. “Most cyclists I approached, I assumed before approaching them that they would probably care enough to participate.�

He stressed, however, that his goal is not to obligate every individual who rides a bike to stop and clean up glass. “I want people to feel inspired and (take) responsibility and just do what needs to be done.�

Several recipients thanked Crall for taking initiative.

Corvallis resident David Eckert was one of a couple individuals who paid Crall for a broom and pan at the Saturday market.

Eckert, who lives near the university, said that glass is a definite problem, specifically on Van Buren Avenue between Kings Boulevard and Arnold Avenue. “My transportation is nearly 100 percent bike,� Eckert said. “When you go down certain streets, (they’re) almost consistently filled with glass.�

Crall said riding a bicycle instead of driving a car has made him more aware of litter problems in the city. “Being on a bike, you feel your town more,� he said. “We need to make this city as bikefriendly as possible.�

Anthrax hits Klamath cattle herd

By Steven DuBois The Associated Press

PORTLAND — Anthrax has been confirmed as the cause of death in a Klamath County steer and is suspected in the deaths of two others from the same herd, state officials said Friday.

Outbreaks of naturally occurring anthrax do occur in the West, but this is Oregon’s first anthrax case involving an animal in more than five decades, said Brad Leamaster, a state veterinarian.

Animals generally get the disease by ingesting or inhaling spores that can survive in soil for decades. The weather plays a factor, with outbreaks more common in droughts

and dustpans, which Crall bought for four dollars each from Robnett’s Hardware, are small enough for cyclists to carry in bike baskets. Each dustpan handle has a small rope loop so they can hang on bike handlebars. “Small slivers are the problem,� he said, because cyclists are less likely to see small pieces of glass before they ride over them. “Oftentime when you find the culprit of a flat tire, it’s a mere sliver of glass that’s small enough to pull out with tweezers. A detailed spot sweep should take care of that.�

Because some messes he sees are too big for a little broom, he bought 40 stickers at SP&B Reprographics printed with the phone number for Corvallis Public Works as part of his investment and placed them on the back of every dustpan. “I honestly just want cyclists to know that’s who they can contact in case of larger messes,� Crall said.

The Corvallis Farmers Market on Saturday provided Crall an opportunity to test the significance of his idea. He found it well-received by other cyclists after a box of 25 mini brooms and pans he took to the market was empty within 20 minutes.

Anthrax can be treated with antibiotics if caught quickly. If not, it has the potential to kill many animals in a short period of time. The disease killed more than 100 animals on ranches in Colorado and Texas in the first weeks of August, according to news reports. A 2001 outbreak in Texas wiped out more than 1,600 animals, including antelope, cows, deer, horses, llamas and sheep.

The Oregon steer with anthrax died Aug. 22 at a ranch near Fort Klamath. Autopsies were not performed on the other dead cattle.

The state Department of Agriculture said the outbreak has been isolated to one herd,

and the surviving cattle will be vaccinated and monitored.

The agency quarantined the ranch, and the animals were buried 10 feet underground.

Agriculture Department spokesman Bruce Pokarney said ranchers vaccinated their livestock against anthrax in past decades, but might have become less vigilant because the disease has been dormant for so long. “This may change all that again,� he said.

The outbreak does not pose a public health risk, said Dr. Paul Cieslak of the Oregon Health Authority. People who handle infected animals have a slight chance of getting anthrax through scratches in the skin.

Site of cherished Dallas sawmill is sold for a steal

By Michael Rose Statesman Journal

DALLAS, Ore. — The industrial heart of Dallas sold this week for bargain basement prices to several buyers, including one who specializes in liquidating factories.

Weyerhaeuser Co.’s closed sawmill and seven other associated properties in Dallas totaling 154 acres sold for about $2.1 million at a Tuesday auction, said company spokesman Greg Miller.

For some Polk County residents, the auction seemed like the death knell for a once vibrant part of the local economy. The mill opened in 1906 as the flagship operation of Willamette Industries.

“I’m afraid that part of the history of Dallas, and Polk County, is probably gone forever,” said Polk County Commissioner Mike Ainsworth, who once worked at the mill.

“It was what Dallas was all about.”

“I can’t imagine there would be a viable sawmill in the future,” said Dallas Mayor Brian Dalton.

Weyerhaeuser closed the mill three years ago. The mayor said the town would “be proactive” and assist the new owners of the property as much as possible.

Before Weyerhaeuser decided to auction its Dallas property, the land, buildings, and sawmill equipment had been listed for sale at $11.3 million. Its tax-assessed value is about $15 million.

The owners of Northwest Demolition and Dismantling bought the 66-acre sawmill site, company officials confirmed. The winning bid for the sawmill property was about $1.4 million.

Dismantling the Dallas mill and selling its components to domestic or overseas mills is a distinct possibility. Northwest Demolition, however, hasn’t ruled anything out.

“The options are A to Z

“I’m afraid that part of the history of Dallas, and Polk County, is probably gone forever. It was what Dallas was all about.”

— Mike Ainsworth, Polk County Commissioner and former mill employee

right now. We’re getting so many calls,” said Brian Smith, president of the Tigard-based company.

“We will talk to anybody and everybody and try to come up with a plan — and it could happen quickly,” said Richard Wayper, the company’s vice president of marketing.

Returning the mill site to an industrial user would be the best use for the property, he said, and also the most profitable.

Nick Harville of the Strategic Economic Development Corp. said the economic development agency previously had worked with a client interested in buying a portion of the property for a new sawmill operation. Weyerhaeuser rejected the client’s offer, he said.

Dallas officials who attended the auction said several other groups purchased the remaining parcels, which included industrial tracts and the mill’s log yard, land with frontage on Ash Creek, and two commercial lots.

In 2010, another industrial site in Dallas sold for a lowerthan-valued price. The former Tyco circuit board factory, tax assessed at about $3.3 million, sold for just $250,000 to an investor’s group, according to title company documents.

France meets China in this Sybaris dinner entrÊe: Peking Muscovy duck à l’orange on duck-and vegetable fried rice. The restaurant’s menu changes monthly, as chef Matt Bennett builds his recipes around products available locally and seasonally.

M

y favorite Oregon restaurant is located a stone’s throw from the Willamette River and across the Burns

street from a carousel museum.

Sybaris, in the historic downtown blocks of Albany, has found success in what some might consider an unlikely spot. It isn’t near a major population center — Salem is a half hour’s drive to the north — and it’s a meandering drive off Interstate 5.

But the work of Chef Matt Bennett and his wife, Janel, who jointly own the restaurant, has not gone unrecognized.

For each of the past two years, Bennett has been nominated for the “Best Chef Northwest�

Lakeview award by the James Beard Foundation.

The restaurant is set in a century-old industrial building, its ground floor once a bodyand-fender shop. The ceiling is high, the tables set sufficiently far apart that conversations don’t intermingle. The mood is gracious, with a side-wall fireplace; paintings by local artists are tastefully hung so as not to divert attention from the artful presentations of cuisine.

I recall my first visit to Sybaris. I had a feast to please almost any hedonist. From the opening salvo — chilled, smoked goose breast served with chili-spiced candied kumquats — to an Asian-influenced cabbage-and-wild mushroom roll, finishing with a main course of sturgeon picatta on parsley linguine, Matt Bennett

John Gottberg Anderson For The Bulletin

NORTHWEST TRAVEL Next week: Coeur d’Alene Resort never missed a beat as chef. I had no room for dessert, save a cappuccino.

My subsequent visits have been equally sybaritic, as the menu changes monthly. Bennett knows what products he can buy fresh locally, and he builds his recipes around those, often scouring ancient cookbooks: The sturgeon picatta recipe, for instance, was preBolshevik Russian, he said.

When he was invited to cook at the James Beard House in New York City, he prepared a Kalapuya tribute dinner, honoring the native peoples of the mid-Willamette Valley.

The menu featured salmon, quail and elk — along with camas root, fiddlehead ferns, wild mint, nettles, crab apples, Oregon grapes, acorns, wild onions and huckleberries.

Sybaris is only one of many fine restaurants in Oregon that are beyond the boundaries of the Portland metropolis, nationally perceived to be the center of the Northwest’s culinary universe. Following is a list of places where I like to eat when I’m traveling away from Central Oregon but outside of greater Portland.

Musical will get its world premiere in Bend

By David Jasper The Bulletin

This fall, Cascades Theatrical Company will present the world premiere of “It’s Only Money,� a new musical that’s been more than 25 years in the making. Auditions for the production, which is being directed by Lilli Ann Linford-Foreman, will be held Wednesday at Central Oregon Community College in Bend (see “If you go�).

Linford-Foreman calls the musical a fun, timely story “about shenanigans on Wall Street.� “It’s got a good love story in it, plenty of betrayal and underhanded dealings, all held together by a mysterious narrator,� she says.

Back in the 1980s, songwriter and musician David Forrest was working for Ci-

Songwriter David Forrest, left, and Lilli Ann Linford-Foreman are behind “It’s Only Money,� a new musical that will open in November in Bend.

He was about six songs into the project when he met writer Lee Charles Kelley, who began collaborating on the book and lyrics with Kelley for what would become “It’s Only Money.�

About a year later, the

first draft was complete. “My entertainment attorney in New York sent us to see a couple who invested in Broadway shows,� says Forrest, who moved to Bend in 2005. “So one day I hauled my keyboards and other instruments up to this penthouse apartment, and we started doing effectively a mini ‘backer’s audition,’ � in

which songs from a potential show are performed for potential financial investors in a production.

After the fifth song, “They said, ‘Stop. This is great.

You guys have no idea what you’ve got here,’ � Forrest says. What they needed was for Forrest and Kelley to get a staged reading on video.

Lola

Lola was raised in a caring and loving foster home with her 4 siblings. She was adopted out as a young kitten and sadly has come back to us as a stray. Lola is very affectionate and loves to be carried on your shoulder.

She is very gentle and loves to play.

Lola needs a forever loving family that will care for her for the rest of her precious life. If you think this could be with you then come by the shelter and adopt this great girl today!

SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 2012 • THE BULLETIN

A & A

Mother put off by anger of her newly sober fiance Dear Abby: My fiance and I have dated for almost three years. We plan to be married a year from now. We were close friends for 12 years prior to dating.

Abby, over the last two years, he has developed a bad drinking problem and lost 12 jobs in the last year alone. To his credit, he has been sober for a month now and has accepted a new job. Although I’m happy that he has a new job, I’m also concerned because he will be working in a bar.

I am bringing my daughter into this marriage and am worried that he will revert to drinking, which wouldn’t be a good environment for my daughter. When I discussed it with him, he became irate and said I had insulted his job and was calling him a loser. Then he accused me of using him to support myself and my daughter. He said my “true colors� came through when I encouraged him to stay sober.

I am deeply hurt. I don’t understand why he would say such a thing. We had discussed this before, and he didn’t react this way. The last thing I would ever do is marry someone for money. I have always planned to keep my job after we marry.

He is barely speaking to me now, and I don’t understand his anger. Please help. — Depressed and Abandoned in Texas Dear Depressed: Your fiance’s attempt to turn the tables on you, along with his excessive drinking and inability to hold a job, are indications that he has an out-of-control alcohol problem. It is typical for addicts to be defensive and attempt to put anyone who confronts them in a corner. Do not accept the guilt trip.

It is admirable that he has been sober for a month, but his job in an establishment where alcohol is the prime product is an almost sure road to selfdefeat. If someone is serious

The way you react could change this year, as surprises become commonplace. What is a given is that you can expect the unexpected. To some people, this could be nervewracking, but to others, the variety is a source of excitement. If you are single, take your time getting to know the apple of your eye; there could be surprises along the way. If you are attached, you learn that you cannot control anyone’s responses except your own, and sometimes not even those. Work with change, as that dynamic can add much to your relationship. ARIES fires you up.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH You wake up on the right side of the bed this morning.

Unfortunately, everyone around you wakes up on the wrong side. Don’t worry; you’ll handle a control game or power play with ease. Tonight: Go for original.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH Read between the lines when speaking to someone. This person isn’t saying what is really going on with him or her. You might not like what you hear. Do not take any statements personally, as everything could change in the near future.

Tonight: Get some extra sleep.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH You could have a tussle with a partner or close friend. Truth be told, you really won’t be too upset about the outcome. You demonstrate the Gemini quality of flexibility and simply put your energy somewhere else. Perhaps you join your friends.

Tonight: Tomorrow is Monday. Live it up!

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Take a stand, and observe what is happening behind the scenes.

You might want to organize a gettogether or handle an important matter. Because you want to, you will do the planning. This you make quite clear. Tonight: Could be late.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Something you least expected becomes a possibility. Do not hold yourself back, and be willing to experiment with breaking out of your normal Sunday routine. Take a step back if you find yourself putting everything you must do between you and your adventure. Tonight: Stop

TODAY DEAR ABBY about surviving such an addiction, the person doesn’t place him- or herself in temptation’s way.

Encourage your fiance to reinforce his attempt at sobriety by attending AA meetings. (It is listed in the phone book and online.) Then do your part by attending Al-Anon meetings.

Meanwhile, put your wedding plans on hold until you’re absolutely sure he won’t be detrimental to your daughter’s — and your — future.

Dear Abby: We have a cabin on a lake in New England.

It is next door to some of our relatives. We’ve made friends with neighbors on the other side and would like to invite them over for dinner. Our relatives are also friendly with the neighbors. If we invite them for dinner, must we invite the relatives too? — Judy on “Golden Pond�

Dear Judy: Technically, you don’t have to. However, if you have mostly socialized as a “threesome,� feelings may be hurt if you suddenly change what has become customary.

Dear Abby: My wife and I are avid readers who sometimes find that we have too many books. Our solution is to donate our excess books to the local USO. We set up a donation box in our church’s foyer, and once a month we carry the donated books to one of our city’s two USO centers.

Service members are encouraged to take them with them as they travel. We have found that there’s always room on the bookshelves at the USO. — Tom in San Antonio Dear Tom: Thank you for a terrific suggestion. I’m sure many readers will appreciate it — and so will the recipients. — Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Horoscope: Happy Birthday for Sunday, Sept. 2, 2012

making excuses.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH You might need to be more forthright with a child or fiesty friend.

He or she could throw a tantrum, no matter what you do. This person needs to let you know when he or she is not happy. A partner clearly might not agree with you. Tonight: Stay close to home.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH You might want to lighten up a bit. A friend or loved one appears to be full of energy and vigor.

This person also might blurt out words you would prefer not to hear.

Do yourself a favor, and do not let this trigger a reaction. Let the moment go. Tonight: Listen to a suggestion.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Sometimes you have too much energy for your own good, and you need to find a constructive outlet.

A sibling or neighbor wants his or her way. It might be much easier just to give in. You do not always need to be the leader. Tonight: Less romping and an earlier bedtime.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Be impulsive and go with the moment. You might surprise yourself by how wild you could get.

Do not let money stop you from really enjoying yourself. You are full of get-up-and-go. Let your softer side emerge. Tonight: You wild thing.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH If you don’t need to go far from home, don’t. Your sense of humor comes out when a family member acts up in an unusual manner and encourages you to laugh. Sometimes you take yourself too seriously. Tonight: Meet friends at a favorite dinner spot.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH You understand why someone close makes you crankier than you would like. Use that information with kindness and forethought. Be aware of the many judgments you make, and try to stay more neutral. Tonight: Visit with a family member.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHHH Often, you are not as conscious of your behavior and motives as you’d like. You could save yourself — and others — a lot of aggravation if you would take some time to better understand your reasoning. A friend could be testy.

Tonight: Treat yourself. Š 2012 by King Features Syndicate

THE BULLETIN • SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 2012

Restaurants Continued from C1

Willamette Valley I confess to some bias; I think that Bend ranks second to Portland in this state in the quality of its restaurants. But you won’t go wrong in Eugene, Ashland or the Yamhill County wine country between McMinnville and Newberg.

Marché heads the short list of my faves in Eugene. A 15year fixture on the ground floor of the Fifth Street Public Market, Marché (French for “market”) was the brainchild of Stephanie Pearl Kimmel, who like Bennett has received a Beard nomination for the region’s best chef.

After training in Paris, Kimmel returned to Eugene — where she had done her undergraduate work at the University of Oregon — to establish the Excelsior Cafe just off campus in 1972. There she was an early pioneer of Oregon’s farm-to-table movement. She sold the Excelsior in 1993 but after four years in travel and “foodie” television, found herself longing for a return to the kitchen. At the end of 1997, Marché was born.

A recent dinner was highlighted by a nested butter-lettuce salad with a soft-boiled egg, and a braised lamb shoulder with roasted fennel.

And I’ve returned for breakfast and lunch, as well.

For Italian, I’m partial to Beppe & Gianni’s.

Beppe is Beppe Macchi, a native of Sicily. Gianni is chef John Barofsky. Their restaurant occupies a lovely, century-old house in a residential neighborhood near the southeast corner of the Oregon campus. It is everything an Italian restaurant should be, with a gracious host, attentive service and authentic Sicilian cuisine.

I’ve dined here twice, and I plan to return again and again — arriving for an early dinner, as folks are already lining up for tables by 5:30 p.m. My favorite meal was tagliatelle with pork and lamb in a savory red sauce, followed by a house-made tiramisu dessert.

The wine country When I visit McMinnville, I find myself choosing between an old favorite and a new one.

The old favorite is another Italian restaurant, Nick’s Italian Cafe. Nick Peirano opened his restaurant in the heart of downtown 35 years ago, and the same formula worked then as works now — five-course prix-fixe dinners featuring his grandmother’s pesto minestrone soup and a deep selection of Oregon wines. (A la carte meals are also available.)

Nick has now passed the kitchen to his daughter, Carmen Peirano, and her husband and co-chef, Eric Ferguson.

And the couple has extended their reach to an Italian-style salumeria, or butchery, called Fino in Fondo. There can be no fresher meat, which is exactly what I want when Nick’s chefs are roasting Carlton Farms pork according to the menu of the day.

Thistle lost any degree of anonymity when it won the “Oregon restaurant of the year” designation in 2011 from Portland’s Oregonian newspaper. But this tiny, holein-the-wall cafe — it seats just 20 at tables and another six at the counter — is just enough off the beaten track that it can remain a bit of a secret.

French-Canadian chef Eric Béchard, who does all of the cooking while his fiancee, Emily Howard, waits the tables, acknowledges that his daily-changing menu doesn’t appeal to every patron. Rabbit liver parfait with pickled cherries, and beef tartare with capers and shallots, are

A master of subtlety, Restaurant Beck owner-chef Justin Wills serves a short menu of dishes that blend Northwest, Pacific Rim and Mediterranean flavors. He prepares hamachi sashimi in several different ways, here with salmon roe as a prime ingredient.

not everyone’s cup of tea. But I have had few meals more satisfying than Béchard’s sweet-potato soup followed by black cod with cassoulet-style tarbais beans and arugula.

There are a half-dozen fine restaurants in nearby Newberg and Dundee, from Tina’s to the Painted Lady. But of all the fine wine-country restaurants, my No. 1 choice is the Joel Palmer House in Dayton. Why? Because I love mushrooms.

Father-and-son chefs Jack and Chris Czarnecki are nationally famous for their extensive use of wild mushrooms and truffles, which they prepare in a lovingly restored, 1857 National Historic Register home in a quiet village eight miles east of McMinnville.

At a recent dinner, I enjoyed porcini mushroom risotto with white truffle oil; trumpet-like white chanterelles in an earthy cream sauce; and pork tenderloin topped with black chanterelles and served with sauteed onions, apples and cherries. Even dessert was fungi: candy-cap mushrooms boiled with sugar and water to maple-syrup consistency, then served with ice cream.

of my personal favorites.

At Baked Alaska in Astoria, chef Christopher Holen takes full advantage of its location atop pilings above the Columbia River. A specialty is fresh seafood straight from local fishermen. Holen dusts yellowfin tuna with locally ground coffee before searing it rare; he flambés halibut in Applejack brandy and serves it on a bed of Fuji apples; he roasts Columbia salmon skinon and presents it on a bed of quinoa with sauteed fennel, cauliflower and heirloom tomatoes.

In 11 years atop the pier, Baked Alaska has become an Astoria tradition. Holen and his wife and partner, Jennifer, have expanded to include a full-service lounge and even a kitchenware store that opens into the restaurant.

Nearby, Drina Daisy may be Oregon’s only Bosnian restaurant. I know of no other that bridges the gap between Greek and Italian. Chef

Fordinka Kanlic fled war-torn Sarajevo in 1999; today, she does all the cooking as her husband, Ken Bendickson, offers from-the-heart service in this small downtown cafe. I recommend rotisserie-turned lamb with a stuffed paprika and, for dessert, baklava dripping with honey.

In Cannon Beach, Newman’s at 988 sets the standard. Chef John Newman, previously executive chef at the Stephanie Inn, established this intimate restaurant in 2006 in a small yellow house on the south side of town. He specializes in southern French and northern Italian cuisine.

I recommend the prix-fixe menu, which changes nightly and may include the delectable lobster-and-hazelnut ravioli — probably the best ravioli I’ve eaten anywhere.

Newman has recently added Fishes Sushi and Japanese Cuisine in downtown Cannon Beach, but I don’t think it meets the standard of his Cannon Beach original.

Central coast The Bay House in Lincoln City has been a fixture since 1978 on a tidal lagoon at the south end of Lincoln City. It’s had its ups and downs over the years, but they’ve all been “ups” since young chef Sean McCart took the kitchen reins three years ago. He handed off earlier this year to Kevin Ryan, and the transition has been seamless.

On my last visit, I sat in the dining room for pan-fried soft-shell crab, presented with a blood-orange, hazelnut and frisee salad. Together with a plate of ahi tartare, it was all I required for a superb dinner. Sometimes I prefer the spacious lounge, where I sip wine and order from a menu of small plates, including Manila clams with Andouille sausage and short ribs with parsnip puree.

I am thoroughly in love with Restaurant Beck, nestled within Depoe Bay’s intimate Whale Cove Inn. No other Oregon coast restaurant combines such outstanding food with such an amazing view: This bluff-top boutique hotel overlooks a remote cove inhabited by harbor seals — a panoramic view to which diners with window seats are treated.

Owner-chef Justin Wills and his wife, Stormee, established the restaurant in 2009 and named it for their son, Becker. It didn’t take long for Wills, an Iowa native who graduated from the Culinary Institute of America in New York, to stake his claim to culinary fame, as this year he was a finalist the “Best Chef Northwest” award.

Wills serves a short menu — typically three starters and five entrees — of dishes that blend Northwest, Pacific Rim and Mediterranean flavors.

He is a master of subtlety, encouraging a variety of flavors without allowing any of them to overpower a meal. I recommend the tasting menu; and if available, go for the hamachi sashimi with mango gelee, basil leaves and Szechuan peppercorns.

Florence’s Waterfront Depot is a quaint bistro in a 1913 train station (moved from Mapleton in 1972) that extends into the Siuslaw River on a Bay Street pier. The ambience blends rusticity with

elegance, and the prices are amazing: Not one entree on the menu, which is scrawled upon a blackboard hanging on the east wall, is priced over $15 — including crabencrusted halibut ($12) and lamb osso buco ($13). A sister restaurant, the 1285 Restobar, has recently opened to rave reviews for its pizza.

Around the state Surprisingly, perhaps, there is not a great wealth of good restaurants in the Medford-Ashland area. None gets more raves than the quirky New Sammy’s Cowboy Bistro, on the old highway connecting the two cities.

Named for their young son’s giddy-up proclivities when they opened the rambling hacienda 23 years ago — Sam is now grown, moved away and not particularly interested in either cowboys or the restaurant business, his mother said — New Sammy’s is the passion of Charlene and Vernon Rollins. Charlene does the cooking, Vernon selects the exquisite wines, and diners come from miles around for both. Their own organic garden and fruit trees provide about one-third of their inventory during summer.

It’s been a while since I’ve dined here, but remember that I enjoyed everything presented to me — notably a duck confit and kale salad. It was a perfect combination.

If you’re in Ashland for the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, I can think of no place better to dine than The Peerless. Located about seven blocks from Bard Central in Ashland’s historic Railroad District, The Peerless boasts a pleasant garden dining area between its main dining room and a circa-1900 boarding house, now refurbished as a six-room bed-and-breakfast hotel.

The chefs here, Stefan Peña and Sam Jackson, are Bend natives who cut their culinary teeth at such restaurants as Zydeco and the Blacksmith.

My last meal here — a roasted red-and-golden beet salad with poppy-seed goat-cheese cake, plus a rib-eye steak with fava bean succotash and a port-wine fig reduction — was

a great indication of how they are able to combine creativity and flavor in a single meal.

In the Columbia Gorge area, my internal radar always guides me to Hood River’s romantic Stonehedge Gardens, where owners Mike and Shawna Caldwell hold forth in a late-19th-century home nestled in a private woodland.

Shawna’s recipes focus on Northwest cuisine with Pacific Rim and Mediterranean influences; her crab cakes may be the best around, and many locals visit just for the flaming creme brulee bread pudding dessert.

Mike Caldwell, a Hood River native, is a genial host with plenty of experience for the job. Before buying the estate in 2000, he was the maitre d’ at the historic Columbia Gorge Hotel. And the man knows how to tell a story: His mystery novel, “Varietal Tendencies,” is based in part on his experiences as cellar master at Hood River’s highly regarded Flerchinger Vineyards.

Finally, in northeastern Oregon where the best dining is often of the steak-andpotatoes variety, there is one outpost of outstanding Italian-style cuisine. Paizano’s Pizza, in Baker City, presents pizza and stuffed stromboli of the type usually only seen in much larger cities.

Owners Kina Allen and Stephen White, who pulled up stakes in Bend and relocated to the eastern part of the state, have succeeded in pleasing all appetites with huge salads along with their pizzas. And I, for one, am delighted to have a lone outpost where I can find no others.

Old Russia emerges in the Golden Ring B y Celestine Bohlen New York Times News Service

We knew that driving a rental car in Russia wouldn’t be easy even before we arrived at the poorly marked Europcar counter at Moscow’s Sheremetyevo International Airport where they deal, on average, with only 14 customers a week. There, it took a nice young man 40 minutes to check our reservation, make photocopies of our documents and test two GPS systems. The first was broken; the second, which he deemed OK, stopped working even as we pulled out of the parking garage.

Then we ran smack into the real problem: Russian roads, made worse by Russian drivers. On that first afternoon, heading away from Moscow, we got a taste of both. Clogged intersections; clusters of potholes or “hens’ nests,” as Claire de Laboulaye, my French traveling companion, called them; giant trucks on narrow roads; big-bellied Russian trafficpolice officers trolling for offenders, bringing the flow of traffic to a crawl.

A road trip around Russia’s Golden Ring — a circuit of about 10 ancient towns northeast of Moscow, each with its own set of glittering oniondomed churches and medieval fortresses — was going to be a challenge, even for us. Both Claire and I were well prepared by our years of Russian travel, which for each of us began in childhood, and picked up again in the 1980s, under the auspices of the Soviet-era Intourist travel agency, with its KGB-trained guides, grim hotels and empty restaurants serving awful food.

Those days, happily, are gone. In the past 20 years another, more accommodating Russia has emerged, beyond the slick tourist hubs of Moscow and St. Petersburg. In the Golden Ring towns — several of them, anyway — this means decent, occasionally even charming hotels, functional phones and Wi-Fi, better restaurants and innumerable churches and monasteries lovingly rescued from Sovietera neglect.

All of this was enough to lure us into a rented Nissan Tiida for six days of adventure, without a functioning GPS, just a Lonely Planet guidebook and a Russian atlas, which, maddeningly, displayed our route over several pages, sometimes with bits missing.

Even in Soviet times, the Golden Ring was a draw for tourists, starting with the magnificent walled monastery in Sergiyev Posad, about 43 miles from Moscow, dominated by bright blue and gold cupolas. From there, the other towns are spaced out about a half day’s drive from each

other, as the ring stretches up toward the Volga River.

Some stops — Yaroslavl, Kostroma and Vladimir — are proper (if small) cities, with populations from 300,000 to 650,000. We decided to make only fleeting stops in these and to concentrate on smaller towns — Pereslavl-Zalessky, Rostov Veliky, Plyos and Suzdal — all of which have kept something of their pre-Soviet character. With the exception of Plyos, a pleasant provincial river town, all are steeped in Russian history, linked to towering figures like Alexander Nevsky, Ivan the Terrible, Peter the Great and Nicholas II, the last czar.

Geraniums are visible in the windows of an izba in Rostov Veliky, Russia.

It’s a region known for its bewildering number of churches, convents and monasteries. After St. Sergius founded his monastery at Sergiyev Posad around 1340, other hermit monks followed his example and headed north, seeking salvation in nature, building an astonishing 150 monasteries in just 100 years. Backed by the power of the Moscovite princes, this extraordinary missionary movement was to become a key force in the unification of Russia.

This legacy was destroyed or abandoned during Soviet rule, but in the past 20 years that devastation has been reversed as the Russian Orthodox Church and individual believers undertake a countrywide restoration All of this lay ahead of us as we set off from the airport on a summer afternoon, driving through the dust and smog of exurban Moscow.

After a night spent at a private dacha, not far from the glories of Sergiyev Posad, we headed north.

Pereslavl-Zalessky, a hilly town of 42,000 people whose main road sweeps past a half-dozen monasteries, has a grand past that dates from the 12th century, when it was established by Prince Yuri

Locally produced fruits and vegetables are offered for sale outside a house in a village in between Yaroslavl and Kostroma, Russia.

Dolgoruky, best known as the founder of Moscow.

It is a pretty town, intersected by a tree-lined river where fishermen stake out their favorite spots. Some of the 19th-century two-story town houses have been restored, with coats of pink, green and yellow paint. If you avert your gaze from an ugly new shopping center, you can imagine a scene from a novel about provincial prerevolutionary Russia.

Virtually all of the Orthodox Christian monasteries in Pereslavl are in various states of renovation. One, the Goritsky, which looks like something

from a Russian fairy tale, is the home of the local museum, which was closed. We stopped at two others, which are once again functioning as convents. At the 14th-century Fyodorovsky Monastery, we followed a group of black-clad nuns, one on her cellphone, walking briskly toward the main church. There we had our first encounter with a fa-

miliar Russian facial expression: the scowl that melts into a smile.

We had approached the nun behind the candle counter and asked for the name of the church. “And you,” she snarled, “who are you?” We explained that we were tourists interested in the wonderful restoration, and her face instantly lighted up. Suddenly Sister Natalya was eager to tell stories. This kind of encounter happened again and again. Russians like to tell stories; whether they are true or not is unimportant.

Then we headed off to Rostov Veliky, justly famous for its gorgeous skyline of manycolored cupolas rising above Lake Nero. The Rostov Kremlin, with its white stone walls and covered walkway from which you can look out across the lake, or inward to a pretty garden with a pond, has been restored, in particular its three chapels with orange-tinted frescoes.

On our way to Yaroslavl the next day, we made an impromptu detour to the starkly impressive Borisoglebsky monastery, built in the 16th century, with its massive walls and towers. The grounds inside were unkempt, full of lilac bushes in full bloom, and quiet, except for the sound of a single bell ringing at midday.

In Suzdal, our last stop, the tourism industry is operating at full tilt. Where there were once only horse-drawn carriages, there are now also bright pink buggies, shaped like pumpkins and pulled by ponies. The trading arcade (a row of businesses sheltered by an arcade), a standard feature of old Russian towns, is full of restaurants, crowded with tourists in the high season, both Russian and foreign.

The next day, when we finally dropped the car off in Moscow, at a Europcar agency hidden away on a back street in a bank building, we checked our speedometer: As it turned out, we had gone more than 800 miles

What’s in a name? Trends come and go

By Tracy Grant The Washington Post

William Shakespeare, that really famous writer of stories including “Romeo and Juliet,� didn’t think that names should matter very much.

He had Juliet say: “What’s in a name? That which we call a rose “By any other name would smell as sweet.�

But many of us would disagree with old Shakespeare on how much a name matters.

For example, do you like being one of four Andrews in your class? Or do you tease the girl named Amelia by calling her Amelia Bedelia, after the character in the books?

The government keeps track

of baby names, noting which ones are popular when. (A record of every birth, complete with the child’s name, gets filed with the government.) A new website called Findmypast .com looked at the records and made a fascinating discovery: The most popular girl names change a whole lot more than the most popular boy names.

Look at the lists below. They show the five most popular girl and boy names in 1940 and where those names rank today.

1940 Top Girl Names (followed by their 2011 rank) 1. Mary, 112 2. Barbara, 774 3. Patricia, 667

4. Judith, 883 5. Betty, not in the top 1,000 1940 Top Boy Names (followed by their 2011 rank) 1. James, 17 2. Robert, 61 3. John, 27 4. William, 3 (this name actually moved up in rank!)

5. Richard, 127 We could be wrong, but we’re guessing that more of you have a James, William or Robert in your classroom than have a Judith, Barbara or Betty.

What are the names you’re most likely to be calling classmates this year? Here are the most popular names for babies born in 2002, who will be turning 10 this year. Is your

name here?

Most popular names 2002 Girls Emily Madison Hannah Emma Alexis Boys Jacob Michael Joshua Matthew Ethan So what does it all mean?

Not much. Kids have to live with the names their parents give them. And it’s easy for Shakespeare to say names don’t matter. “William� is still pretty popular.

in Bend.

The future groom is the son of Ken and Maureen Klecker, of Bend. He is a 2006 graduate of Mountain View High School and a 2011 graduate of Central Oregon Community College, where he studied criminal justice. He works as a security guard for Security Pros Inc. in Redmond.

THE BULLETIN • SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 2012

Musical Continued from C1 Time passed, during which Forrest moved to Vermont, where he met actor Susan Marie Snyder, a cast member of the old TV soap opera “Santa Barbara.” She was familiar with Forrest’s music and had heard he’d written a musical.

With her help, a staged reading (an on-stage reading with minimal production, costumes, etc.) of the third draft of “It’s Only Money” was held at a small Vermont theater in 1996.

The evening of the event, a snowstorm deposited 3 feet of snow.

“I’m thinking, ‘Nobody’s going to come.’ Well, apparently, buzz around town had gotten pretty strong,” Forrest says.

“They were turning people away.”

Forrest played keyboards during the reading, for which he and the principals had only a short amount of time to rehearse. However, old scenery from the theater’s prop room, including a small Empire State Building, lent the reading a New York ambiance, and all of the cast had thought to wear clothing appropriate to their character.

“Somehow, all this came together the right way,” Forrest says. The crowd gave the musical a standing ovation, and Forrest asked a friend to get copies made of the tape of the show.

From there, things began to go less well.

After he received his copy of the videotape, Forrest popped it in a VCR only to discover it cut off at the beginning of the second act.

“I’m going, ‘Are you kidding me?’ ” Forrest says.

When he called his writing partner about the setback, Kelley had worse news for him: The only electronic copy of their script was lost when Kelley’s computer crashed.

“Remember, this is 1996,” notes Forrest. Kelley had saved a back-up on floppy disc, but that was lost when Kelley’s dog, Freddy, knocked over a vase, damaging the floppy.

What of the scripts used for the reading? According to Forrest, in those days, “it cost $35, $40 to reproduce the scripts, so (the theater) said they owned them.”

“I go, ‘OK, this is a sign from the universe or something,’ ” says Forrest, who later moved to San Diego and, in 2005, to Bend.

Two years ago this month, he attended a wedding in Central Park, where he met up with his old Vermont friend, who, unbeknownst to Forrest, had made an extra videotaped copy of “It’s Only Money” back in 1996.

Or as Forrest puts it, “He snaked a copy for himself.”

At the wedding, “He pulls out of his knapsack this DVD,” which turned out to be a copy of the staged reading of “It’s Only Money.”

“I say, ‘Wow, that’s incredible! But what’s the difference?

It stops at the beginning of the second act.’ ” “He goes, ‘No, David, the guy who did the digital transfer was able to get the whole thing off.’ ” Still there were no existing copies of the script, and “the music is all in my head,” Forrest says.

When he told his old partner, Kelley, about the find, Kelley was reluctant to begin transcribing the whole thing from the DVD. It turned out they wouldn’t have to. Forrest’s buddy wasn’t the only one to boost something from the 1996 reading: Forrest later learned that a box he’d left behind at his sister’s New York home during his West Coast move contained a copy of the script from the Vermont theater.

“I must have kept one as a memento,” Forrest says. When he took it to a local printer in Bend, he was charged just $14 for a scanned Microsoft Word copy.

“It’s Only Money” was back in business. He sent it to Kelley, and the two began working on another draft — again.

Not long after all this, Forrest attended a CTC production of “Oliver!” at Greenwood Playhouse in early 2011.

“The production values were incredible,” he says.

Six weeks later, he worked up the nerve to approach Lana Shane, the theater’s operations manager, and asked if she had 15 minutes to hear his story.

By the end of it, she asked to see the script and DVD. He was hoping for a two-night run during the 2011-2012 season — performances that, yes, he would have filmed — and would love to see it directed by Linford-Foreman.

Instead, CTC’s play selection committee wanted to do a three-week run for this upcoming 2012-2013 season.

Forrest would have to wait just a little longer, but he’d have the director he wanted, not to mention a full cast and staging.

Though the script being used for the November production is his and Kelley’s fifth draft, the songs are the same ones the two wrote so many years ago. Among them are a reggae song, uptempo tunes and ballads.

“I started this thing over 25 years ago,” Forrest says, laughing. “For some reason, it’s come back.”

Tips to safely nosh around the world

By Carol Pucci The Seattle Times

I’ve sipped Ayran, a frothy yogurt drink made with water and salt, in the tent of a Kurdish nomad in Turkey; sampled grasshoppers seasoned with chili powder and lime in Mexico; and eaten kimchee stored in a pot buried in the backyard of a homestay house in Korea.

Only once in many years of traveling have I become sick enough from food to take the medicine I always carry with me. That was in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, where I ate at a Western-style private club that served an Italian-style pasta and chicken.

For me, eating is part of the fun and adventure of traveling. Some of my most memo-

rable travel experiences have to do with getting to know people over food and drink.

To stay healthy, I follow advice provided by the travel nurses at Group Health Cooperative in Seattle, add a few of my own do’s and don’ts, then dive in and eat like a local.

I stick to bottled water, even in hotels that supply filtered water. “You don’t know what the filtration system is like,” says Group Health travel nurse Michelle Duffy York. She recommends extra precautions such as carrying a portable sterilizer to plunge into the plastic bottles that might not have been properly sealed.

• I’m a street-food fan (if you are, too, you might want to take a look at Lonely Planet’s

new book, “The World’s Best Street Food”), but play it safe by sticking to sweets such as the unusual treats I found in the Muslim quarter of Xian, China. “Eight Treasures” was a memorable pudding, a 20-cent disc of sticky rice flavored with dates, sugar, sesame and nuts, cooked in a tiny wooden box, then removed intact and served on a stick.

• Don’t assume that familiar, Western-style foods are safer than the local fare. My Cambodia experience is an example.

• Become a temporary vegetarian. Undercooked or unrefrigerated meat and chicken attract bacteria. I opted for the “veg” side of the menu while traveling for three weeks in India and never became ill.

• I follow Group Health’s advice to take two PeptoBismol tablets (generics are fine, too) shortly before each meal. The active ingredient, bismuth subsalicylate, coats the insides, explains Group Health’s York, preventing bacteria from sticking to the intestine and spreading.

Pepto-Bismol tablets aren’t for everyone. Travelers who can’t tolerate aspirin should avoid them, as should those taking certain medicines, pregnant women and children under 12, says York.

Check with your doctor, then if you get the OK, practice reaching into your pocket, unwrapping the tablets with one hand and popping them into your mouth without anyone seeing.

Experience should make Lava Bears contenders

SUNRIVER — Fiveand 10-kilometer races were staged Saturday on the first day of the 2012 Sunriver Marathon for a Cause. The second annual event, a series of races staged over two days to benefit breast cancer prevention and awareness, concludes today at Sunriver Resort with the marathon and half marathon races.

A Bend runner, Jason Townsend, placed first overall in Saturday’s 5K. His time was 18 minutes, 24.0 seconds. The first female finisher was Maddie Hearn, of Lake Oswego, whose time of 22:33.9 was 14th overall in a field of 258 finishers.

In the 10K, Portland’s Terry Gentry was the overall winner among 122 finishers with a time of 39:51.1. The women’s winner was Emily Dimick, of Albany, who was 10th overall in 46:49.7.

Today’s races both start at the Sunriver Resort main lodge. The marathon, a Boston marathon qualifier, is set to start at 7 a.m.; the half marathon starts at 7:30 a.m.

Race proceeds will benefit the Oregon and Southwest Washington affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure.

After finishing second at last year’s Class 5A girls cross-country state meet, Bend High is in position to steal the spotlight this fall.

The Lava Bears return five of seven state qualifiers — four of whom are fourth-year runners.

Last season, Summit and Bend finished 1-2 at both the Class 5A Special District 1

championship meet. At state, the Storm earned a near-perfect score of 16, while Bend totaled 101 points. With Summit returning only two state qualifiers, the Lava Bears have a chance to close the gap.

“They’re all back,” says Bend High coach Lisa Nye, who has returned to her post as the Bears’ head coach after a year abroad teaching in Hungary. “All the girls have had three years of experience … it’s fun to see years of work culminate in a strong senior year.”

Jenna Mattox, who finished ninth at last year’s state meet, is expected to lead the Lava Bears.

EUGENE — risha Helms didn’t watch a minute of Oregon’s 57-34 football blowout over Arkansas State, but even she could tell this game was ugly.

“Wow, I’ve heard the foghorn go off a lot already,” Helms, who worked crowd control inside the hallways of the press box at Autzen Stadium on Saturday night, said early in the first quarter after the Ducks had gone up 29-0. “Not good.”

No, it wasn’t good for the visiting Red Wolves.

EUGENE — Marcus Mariota showed no signs of stage fright in his debut for the Oregon Ducks.

The redshirt freshman quarterback made his first start in a real college football game Saturday night, passing for 200 yards and three touchdowns in No. 5 Oregon’s 57-34 season-opening victory over Arkansas State.

De’Anthony Thomas caught two passes for touchdowns and ran for another while collecting 119 yards in total offense as the Ducks built a 50-10 lead by halftime.

Kenjon Barner, taking over as starter after the departure of running back LaMichael James, ran for 66 yards and two Oregon scores.

The Ducks sat most of their starters after the break.

The loss spoiled coach Gus Malzahn’s first game as coach of the Red Wolves, who went 10-3 last season and won the Sun Belt Conference title.

Arkansas State senior quarterback Ryan Aplin passed for 304 yards and three touchdowns, including a 72-yard scoring pass to Julian Jones just before halftime.

Mariota replaced Darron Thomas, who decided to leave Oregon with a year of eligibility left.

Mariota was on the practice squad last season and was something of a mystery because Oregon closes practices, but he beat out Bryan Bennett for the starter’s job in fall camp.

New England’s Tom Brady was among three quarterbacks who threw for more than 5,000 yards last season.

Bill Kostroun / The Associated Press

The New York Giants had finished the first practice of training camp this summer when coach Tom Coughlin, in a moment that might have seemed to come out of the mid-1970s, announced his hopes for the new season.

“We definitely have got to rush the ball better,” he said. “The balance factor has always been something we’ve been able to count on.

We’ve got to get back to that.”

It was a rudimentary bit of coaching philosophy that raised one question: Why?

NFL The Giants were the perfect champions for the 2011 season: the team with the lowest-ranked running game in the NFL won the Super Bowl after a season in which the run was subjugated more than ever. Three quarterbacks — Matthew Stafford, Drew Brees and Tom Brady — each passed for more than 5,000 yards last season. Before that, there had been only two 5,000yard passing seasons in league history. Four of the top six individual singleseason passing marks — including one

by Eli Manning — were set in 2011.

Perhaps more telling, according to statistics kept by Pro-Football-Reference.com, teams averaged 229.7 yards passing a game last season, the most in league history and an 8-yard jump

over the previous high, set in 2010.

Teams averaged 34 passing attempts a game, the second most. In contrast, teams averaged 27.3 rushing attempts — tied for the second fewest since at least 1932, as far back as the website’s statistics go.

With five teams preparing to start rookie quarterbacks in Week 1 — an NFL season has never started with more than two rookie starting quarterbacks — the tilt toward the pass seems to be more acute than ever.

It is no secret why.

“It’s very difficult, it’s not impossible, but it’s highly, highly unlikely that you’re going to find someone win a world championship without the guy at that position,” said John Elway, the Denver Broncos’ executive vice president for football operations.

LM Otero / The Associated Press

Alabama wide receiver DeAndrew White (2) runs into the end zone to score a touchdown during the first half against Michigan at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas, Saturday.

No. 2 ’Bama rolls No. 8 Michigan

By The Associated Press ARLINGTON, Texas — Dee Milliner and that Alabama defense showed they can still dominate.

Even after sending three starting defenders from last year’s national championship team to the NFL as first-round draft picks, the secondranked Crimson Tide threw around eighth-ranked Michigan while pounding Denard Robinson in a season-opening 41-14 victory Saturday night.

C.J. Mosley returned an interception 16 yards for a touchdown for the Tide. AJ McCarron, no longer with third overall draft pick Trent Richardson to hand the ball off to, threw two touchdowns as Alabama won its 11th consecutive season opener.

Also on Saturday: No. 3 LSU. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 41 North Texas. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 14 BATON ROUGE, La. — Kenny Hilliard rushed for 141 yards and two touchdowns, and LSU opened its season with an easy victory.

While the heavily favored Tigers were never threatened, their performance did not always thrill a Death Valley crowd that eagerly anticipated the debut of Zach Mettenberger as starting quarterback. Mettenberger, who was briefly sidelined by a vicious sack, was 19 of 26 for 192 yards, an interception and a touchdown.

No. 4 Oklahoma . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 24 UTEP. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 7 EL PASO, Texas — Landry Jones threw two touchdown passes and Damien Williams ran 65 yards for another score in the fourth quarter, helping No. 4 Oklahoma slog out a 24-7 win over Texas-El Paso. Oklahoma labored in its opener, unable to generate much of a running game or get anything downfield.

No. 6 Georgia . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 45 Buffalo . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 23 ATHENS, Ga. — Freshman Todd Gurley ran for three touchdowns, Aaron Murray threw three scoring passes and Georgia overcame a sloppy first half. Gurley didn’t start but may have emerged as the Bulldogs’ future at tailback with his eight carries for 100 yards, including scoring runs of 10 and 55 yards. He added a 100-yard kickoff return for a touchdown in the first quarter.

No. 7 Florida State . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 69 Murray State . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 3 TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Lonnie Pryor, James Wilder Jr., and Debrale Smiley combined for seven rushing touchdowns to lead Florida State.

Pryor ran for three TDs, and Smiley and Wilder added two apiece. Wilder finished with 106 yards rushing.

Florida State scored on their first touch of the new season on Rashad

Greene’s 47-yard punt return just 89 seconds into the game. EJ Manuel passed for 188 yards and a touchdown before retiring midway in the third quarter.

No. 10 Arkansas . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 49 Jacksonville State . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 24 FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Tyler Wilson set the school record for yards passing in a season opener, finishing 19 of 27 passing for 367 yards and three touchdowns for Arkansas. Two of Wilson’s touchdowns went to tight end Chris Gragg, who finished with seven catches for 110 yards as the Razorbacks (1-0) won their first game under coach John L. Smith.

No. 11 West Virginia. . . . . . . . . . . . . . 69 Marshall . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 34 MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Geno Smith threw for 323 yards and four touchdowns to lead the Mountaineers past Marshall. In the final scheduled game between the state’s only Bowl Subdivision teams, it marked West Virginia’s highestscoring season opener in school history. Smith kept the momentum going from his six-TD performance from the Orange Bowl. The senior completed 32 of 36 passes and set a school record for career completions before sitting out most of the fourth quarter.

No. 12 Wisconsin . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 26 Northern Iowa. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 21 MADISON, Wis. — Montee Ball rushed for 120 yards and a touchdown, and Wisconsin needed a big defensive play to survive a fourthquarter scare. Wisconsin’s defense didn’t allow Northern Iowa past the 50-yard line until the 4:27 mark in the third quarter — but then the Badgers nearly melted down.

Leading 26-7 in the fourth quarter, Wisconsin allowed Northern Iowa quarterback Sawyer Kollmorgen to throw a pair of long touchdowns to David Johnson, cutting the lead to five.

No. 14 Clemson . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 26 Auburn . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 19 ATLANTA — Andre Ellington rushed for 231 yards, DeAndre Hopkins set a school record with 13 receptions and Clemson opened the season with a victory. Playing before a 50-50 crowd at the Georgia Dome — basically halfway between the two campuses — Clemson shook off any hangover from last season’s embarrassing 70-33 loss to West Virginia in the Orange Bowl and showed plenty of offense against Auburn even without star receiver Sammy Watkins, who was suspended for the first two games after an offseason drug arrest.

AUSTIN, Texas — Joe Bergeron and Malcolm Brown both rushed for more than 100 yards and combined for three touchdowns to lead Texas. Texas quarterback David Ash, who won the starting job over Case McCoy in training camp, was an efficient 20-of-27 passing for 156 yards and a touchdown to Jaxon Shipley. Bergeron had 110 yards and scored Texas’ first touchdown on a 1-yard run in first quarter. He put the game away with a 17-yard TD in the fourth. Brown ran for 105 yards for Texas (1-0).

No. 17 Nebraska . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 49 Southern Miss . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 20 LINCOLN, Neb. — Taylor Martinez threw for a career-high 354 yards and matched his best with five touchdown passes to lead Nebraska.

The Huskers won their nation-leading 27th straight opener. Nebraska played the last three quarters without Rex Burkhead. The 1,300-yard rusher last season went out with a sprained ligament in his left knee after opening the scoring with a career-long 57-yard run.

No. 18 Ohio State . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 56 Miami (Ohio) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 10 COLUMBUS, Ohio — Braxton Miller threw for two scores, including Devin Smith’s highlight-reel, one-handed catch, for the Buckeyes.

The slow-starting Miller, who stutter-stepped for a 65-yard score just 17 seconds into the second half, finished 14 of 24 passing for 207 yards.

No. 19 Oklahoma State . . . . . . . . . . . 84 Savannah State . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 0 STILLWATER, Okla. — Freshman Wes Lunt completed all 11 of his passes in a brief first outing as the new starting quarterback for Oklahoma State. The defending Big 12 champions drove for touchdowns on their first five possessions to take a 35-0 lead late in the first quarter, and then used the rest of the game as a scrimmage for their reserves.

No. 22 Kansas State . . . . . . . . . . . . . 51 Missouri State. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 9 MANHATTAN, Kan. — Collin Klein threw for 169 yards and two touchdowns, John Hubert ran 95 yards for a fourth-quarter score and Kansas State pulled away late to beat Missouri State.

No. 23 Florida . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 27 Bowling Green . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 14 GAINESVILLE, Fla. — Mike Gillislee had a career-high 148 yards rushing and two touchdowns, helping Florida beat Bowling Green. The performance was far from perfect for the Gators, who struggled part of the game on offense and failed to generate much pressure on defense.

Still, it was enough for Florida to win its 23rd consecutive opener.

NEW YORK — Serena Williams does not enjoy viewing videos of her losses. Not one bit.

She used to engage in that sort of film work, Williams said, but “it was so painful; it was like stabbing myself.”

So even though Williams knew her thirdround opponent at the U.S. Open would be the same woman she lost to at the Australian Open, preparing by studying a replay of that January defeat simply was out of the question.

Did not seem to matter at all.

After splitting Saturday’s first eight games against 42nd-ranked Ekaterina Makarova of Russia, the fourth-seeded Williams got into high gear and breezed to a 6-4, 6-0 victory, reeling off the last eight games in a row.

“Definitely was motivated. Knowing that I lost; could definitely happen again. Did not want that to happen,” said Williams, who hit 13 aces to raise her tour-leading total this season to 408.

“I really hate watching matches that I lose, unless I’m punishing myself,” added the 14time Grand Slam champion. “I didn’t punish myself.”

She hasn’t been losing much lately.

Since the only first-round Grand Slam exit of her career, against 111th-ranked Virginie Razzano at the French Open on May 29, Williams is 22-1 in singles, including the title at Wimbledon and gold medal at the London Olympics.

That sort of excellence sure saves money for clothes: Williams said she threw out all of the dresses she brought to Paris to wear during matches there.

No such problems so far in New York, where Williams has dropped only 12 games entering her fourth-round match against 82nd-round Andrea Hlavackova of Czech Republic. Hlavackova, the 2011 French Open doubles champion, bawled on court after her 5-7, 6-4, 6-4 win over 14th-seeded Maria Kirilenko, whose boyfriend, Washington Capitals star Alex Ovechkin, was in New York to cheer for her.

The woman Williams beat in the Wimbledon final, second-seeded Agnieszka Radwanska, dealt with the 90-degree heat and former No. 1 Jelena Jankovic with equal aplomb during a 6-3, 7-5 victory.

“I was melting there,” Radwanska said. “I survived the match.”

She wasn’t the only one who felt that way.

Olympic champion Andy Murray, still seeking his first Grand Slam title after four losses in finals, eked out a 7-6 (5), 7-6 (5), 4-6, 7-6 (4) victory over No. 30 Feliciano Lopez, who led in each of the three tiebreakers before faltering.

“Could have gone either way,” Murray acknowledged. “It was very hot and humid in the middle part of the match. I was struggling a bit with that.”

The man he beat for the gold at the Summer Games, and lost to in the Wimbledon title match, Roger Federer, is also Murray’s potential semifinal opponent in New York.

Federer, as is often the case, barely was bothered Saturday while dismissing No. 25 Fernando Verdasco 6-3, 6-4, 6-4.

Five of Federer’s record 17 Grand Slam titles came at Flushing Meadows, and he’s sure looking capable of adding to those numbers.

Football • Seattle surprisingly releases TE Winslow: Kellen Winslow was acquired by the Seattle Seahawks in the hopes that along with Zach Miller the duo could become a formidable set of tight ends who could add another element to the Seahawks offense. Those plans drastically changed on Saturday when Winslow was released by the team, keeping true to the Seahawks’ past form of tinkering with their roster even after all training camp cuts are made.

A team spokesman confirmed Winslow’s release shortly after it was first reported by ESPN.com.

Winslow was scheduled to make $3.3 million in base salary in 2012, following his trade from Tampa

Bay to Seattle in May. Seattle moved quickly to fill Winslow’s spot by agreeing to terms with former Cleveland tight end Evan Moore, who was released by the Browns on Friday.

Soccer • Wambach delivers win as Sundhage says farewell: Abby Wambach kicked off the U.S. women’s soccer team’s victory tour — and Pia Sundhage’s final stretch as American coach — by scoring twice in a 8-0 exhibition victory over Costa Rica on Saturday in Rochester, N.Y. The U.S. team’s first game since winning the gold medal at the Olympics last month was a homecoming for Wambach. And her return was

overshadowed by Sundhage, who announced hours before the game that she is stepping down and returning to her native Sweden.

In five seasons, Sundhage led the Americans to consecutive gold medals and their first World Cup final in 12 years.

Motor sports • Stenhouse Jr. races to 4th Nationwide win: Ricky Stenhouse Jr. used a late push from runner-up Brad Keselowski to pass Kevin Harvick and win the Nationwide race at Atlanta Motor Speedway. After a restart with three laps to go, Harvick lost the lead on the final lap as his car got loose coming out of Turn 2 and, Stenhouse, who was bumped by

Keselowski on the front straightaway, went ahead for good in Turn 3. Stenhouse, the defending series champion, raced to his fourth Nationwide victory of the season, and moved within 12 points of leader Elliott Sadler.

• Massey wins NHRA Traxxas Nitro Shootout: Top Fuel driver Spencer Massey led Top Fuel qualifying in the U.S. Nationals and won the $100,000 NHRA Traxxas Nitro Shootout at Lucas Oil Raceway at Indianapolis. Massey had a pass of 3.762 seconds at 324.51 mph during the third qualifying session of the weekend, which doubled as the second round of the Nitro Shootout.

• Power captures pole in Grand Prix of Baltimore: Australian Will Power captured the pole

in the Grand Prix of Baltimore, a feat that earned him another point in his bid to clinch his first IZOD IndyCar Series championship this weekend. Power holds a 37-point lead over Ryan Hunter-Reay, who’s in second place entering today’s race. Power, the defending champion in Baltimore, can wrap up the points title if he’s ahead by 54 after today.

• Button takes pole position for Belgian GP: British driver Jenson Button will start today’s Belgian Grand Prix in pole position after finishing fastest in Saturday’s qualifying. Button, who won the season’s opening GP in Australia, overcame balance problems in his McLaren to grab his first pole of the season.

Nevada spoils Cal’s party with victory The Associated Press BERKELEY, Calif. — Cody Fajardo, Stefphon Jefferson and the Nevada Wolf Pack spoiled California’s stadium reopening party.

Jefferson ran for 145 yards and scored his third touchdown with 36 seconds remaining Saturday as Nevada beat California 31-24 in the first game in 21 months at Memorial Stadium.

“Good teams find a way to try and overcome adversity,” Nevada coach Chris Ault said. “I’m not saying we’re a good team at this particular time, but we did overcome some adversity.

Fajardo completed 25 of 32 passes for 230 yards and added 97 yards rushing and a touchdown for the Wolf Pack (1-0), who put a damper on what was supposed to be a celebratory day for the Golden Bears.

Fajardo engineered the winning drive by throw a 14-yard pass to Zach Sudfeld on third-and-4 from the Cal 38 and a 19-yarder to Brandon Wimberly

that set up Jefferson’s winning score.

“It was dreamlike,” Fajardo said.

“You can only think about having the ball with two minutes left and driving down and scoring. You can only dream of that, and it became a reality for us.”

It was especially sweet for Wimberly, who missed all of last season recovering from a bullet wound to his stomach.

“It’s a long road. This is game one,” he said. “A year ago, there was no way I was going to play a football game.”

Quarterback Zach Maynard returned after being benched for the first three series as punishment for missing a tutoring session earlier this summer to throw for 247 yards and two touchdowns for Cal (0-1).

But he also lost a fumble deep in Nevada territory in the fourth quarter as the Bears lost at home to Nevada for the second time in 25 tries and first since 1903.

“I told everybody to keep their heads up,” Maynard said. “Everybody is pretty down. We worked so hard to get this far. To come home and get a loss is pretty tough.”

Ducks

COLLEGE FOOTBALL SCOREBOARD

Continued from D1 Mariota, who had not seen live game competition since his senior year of high school at Saint Louis School in Honolulu, Hawaii, looked like a natural in Chip Kelly’s spread-option offense as he guided Oregon to a 50-10 halftime lead after leading the reigning Rose Bowl champions to touchdown drives on their first seven possessions.

“He’s got good command of our offense,” Kelly said about Mariota. “To see how he performed today is what we hoped and wished for, but you don’t know until he gets out there. … He’s a laid-back dude, but he can make plays.”

As expected, Oregon had little trouble with the second-best team in last year’s GoDaddy.com bowl game.

De’Anthony Thomas posted 119 yards of offense and three touchdowns on seven touches — three rushes for 64 yards and one TD and four catches for 55 yards receiving and two scores — all in the first half. Kenjon Barner, in his first game as the Ducks’ featured back, ran for 66 yards and two touchdowns on just nine carries. Backup quarterback Bryan Bennett, who entered the game in the second quarter, passed for 108 yards and a touchdown.

And third-string running back Byron Marshall had 64 yards rushing and a score on a team-high 24 carries.

Oregon Receiver Josh Huff, middle, celebrates his touchdown with teammates Daryle Hawkins, left, and Keanon Lowe during the first half of Saturday night’s game in Eugene.

“A lot of guys got a lot of reps,” Kelly said. “When you have a game like this, your young kids can learn. You have to make a few mistakes to learn and grow. … A lot of the kids that played in the second half, we know they’re going to have key roles for us.”

While the postgame stats are fun to digest — 14 different Oregon players caught a pass Saturday night — they could go to even more absurd heights in the next two weeks against Fresno State (4-9 in 2011) and Tennessee Tech, an FCS school which has arguably the fifth-best football team in the Volunteer State. The $950,000 question

Continued from D1 The native Hawaiian had shown promise in the Ducks’ spring game with a touchdown pass and two scoring runs — including one touchdown rush of 82 yards.

Mariota is the first freshman to start at quarterback in an opener for Oregon since Danny O’Neil in 1991. He completed 18 of 22 passes.

The Ducks scored on their first drive of the game with Barner’s 4-yard dash, then added the two-point conversion to make it 8-0.

Barner, a senior, was James’ backup for the past two seasons. James, the school’s career leading rusher, left Oregon early for the NFL draft and was a second-round pick by the San Francisco 49ers.

Mariota connected with De’Anthony Thomas with a 12-yard touchdown pass to make it 15-0.

Continued from D1 Elway signaled his philosophy by wooing Peyton Manning to Denver and dumping Tim Tebow, who led a runcentered offense into the playoffs last season.

“Everything cycles in the NFL, and what that next cycle is, who knows,” Elway said.

“Unless there are rules changes, I don’t see people backing down. Because of the rules and the attitude, the running game is a little less important.”

That is exacerbated by the booming popularity of the spread offense in college and high school, positioning the talent pool in the next generation to be pass-intensive, too. When the former quarterback Rich Gannon was in high school in the early 1980s, he was lucky if he threw the ball 25 times a game, he said.

Now, when he watches a high school game, offenses are operating in spread formations, with the quarterback in the shotgun.

(the amount Arkansas State received for being thrashed on national television) for the Ducks is: Do any of these games help prepare them for Pac-12 play? Does beating up on a team that plays in the same league as South Alabama as opposed to the boys in Tuscaloosa help ready Oregon for a Nov. 3 showdown with Southern California that could have not only conference championship but national title implications?

“This was a good day overall for us,” Kelly said. “We have a lot to work on, but we’re moving in the right direction.”

— Reporter beastes@ bendbulletin.com.

Thomas made a splash last season when he set an Oregon freshman record with 18 touchdowns, rushing for seven, nine on receptions, and two on kickoff returns.

Before the first quarter was over, John Huff pulled down a 4-yard touchdown pass from Mariota and Barner added a 17-yard scoring run to make it 29-0.

Brian Davis kicked a 43-yard field goal for the Red Wolves early in the second quarter.

Thomas scored again on a 33-yard run to make it 43-3, and there was still 10:45 left in the half. True freshman Byron Marshall added a 3-yard touchdown run for the Ducks.

Aplin passed to Jones, who ran down the right side to close the gap a bit with 3:20 left in the half, before Davis opened the third quarter with a 29-yard field goal.

Aplin added a 6-yard touchdown pass to Josh Jarboe before the end of the quarter to make it 50-20.

If a scout tries to unearth a fullback in college, he comes up empty because fullbacks are not used in college football anymore. Offensive linemen are steeped in pass protection from an early age, but some need remedial work in run blocking when they arrive in the NFL. That merely reinforces the shift that NFL teams have made.

Still, this offseason saw a flurry of big-money contracts for running backs. The Bears’ Matt Forte and the Houston Texans’ Arian Foster received new deals, following Adrian Peterson’s blockbuster contract from Minnesota last year.

Forte and Foster are skilled receivers out of the backfield, too. But Maurice Jones-Drew wants a new contract in Jacksonville, and ownership there has so far refused. That is perhaps because last season, in which Jones-Drew ran for 1,606 yards and the Jaguars had the sixth-ranked defense in the league, the Jaguars won just five games, underscoring the importance of having a

good quarterback.

As a result, the running game seems likely to become a small part of the offense for every team that does not have a player like Peterson, or that does not have a defense as good as the San Francisco 49ers did last season.

The 49ers rushed more often than they threw last season, unusual for a championshipcaliber team today. They were second in points allowed and first in rushing yardage.

Their passing offense ranked 16th in yardage. But quarterback Alex Smith avoided mistakes, throwing only five interceptions.

For the 49ers, the run was the fulcrum of their offense.

Most other Super Bowl contenders, though, use it as a complement, to use up the clock late in games when they have a lead, to convert on third-and-short, to avoid turnovers in bad weather and to score touchdowns in goal-line situations, when the action is so compressed that throwing is riskier.

if I have a choice between a mediocre passing game or a running game that pounds away, I’ll take the running game anytime. I don’t believe you can win that way in the playoffs. But you can win in the regular season that way, which is essentially what the Jets are doing.”

Contenders Continued from D1 Other returning state qualifiers for Bend are Melissa Hubler, Makeila Lundy, McKenzie Bell and Hannah Anderson. Sophie Andrews and Kelcey Canfield should help bolster the team, according to Nye. Nye says her team hopes to “meet or exceed” its goals from last season and is looking to place in the top two at the district meet in order to gain a state berth.

“Our focus is to have a great district meet,” Nye says.

The Storm, who won their fourth consecutive state title last year, will pose a challenge despite the loss of several key runners, including last year’s individual state champion, Megan Fristoe.

“Our toughest state competition is in the district as well,” says Nye, referring to Summit.

Other top runners the Storm lost to graduation include Sara Fristoe (Megan’s twin sister), Ashley Maton and Kira Kelley.

“It will be a challenge winning state,” says first-year Summit head coach Carol McLatchie. “A lot of (the girls) are quite young.”

McLatchie, who has served three years as an assistant track coach for Summit’s distance squad, was appointed as the school’s new crosscountry head coach this summer. She replaces Dave Clark, who served as head cross-country coach at Summit since the school opened in 2011 but whose coaching contract was not renewed for 2012. School officials have not commented on why Clark — who continues to teach math at Summit — was not kept as coach.

Sophomore Piper McDonald should lead the Storm in 2012. McDonald placed third at the 2011 state meet as a freshman and is expected to be a top contender for this year’s state title. The Storm will also rely on senior Tess Nelson, who finished 14th at state last year. Other key returners include Madison Walker and Mary Hadley Schoderbek.

Mountain View, which finished third at the district meet last year, returns three varsity runners. Sophomore Tia Hatton and senior Mikayla Cant will lead the pack.

Kiersten Hatton “will be in the hunt for the (team’s) top seven,” according to Mountain View coach Don Stearns.

Freshmen Sage Hassell and Madison Leapaldt will help solidify the varsity squad, Stearns adds.

The Cougars are hoping to “sneak into the second spot for state,” says Stearns who refers to his team as inexperienced and young.

The Class 5A Intermountain Conference has expanded this year to include Redmond. Redmond High, formerly a Class 6A school, has a lower enrollment this year with the opening across town of Ridgeview.

“Our team is about the same size, but we suffered a blow,”

Culver volleyball takes title at Warrenton Tournament Bulletin staff report WARRENTON — One way to make a coach happy is to begin the season in nearly flawless fashion. At the eight-team Warrenton Tournament on Saturday, Culver’s volleyball squad made its coach happy indeed.

After compiling a 6-1 record in pool play, the Bulldogs defeated Central Linn in the semifinals and then beat Warrenton to claim the championship.

Behind six kills apiece from Shealene Little and Cassie Sulton, along with three Little aces and 12 assists by Jahnie Cleveland, Culver swept Warrenton 25-19, 25-19 in the title match.

“We started off a little shaky,” Culver coach Randi Viggiano said. “We just wanted to improve and get better each game. We did just that.”

Culver opens up Class 2A Tri-River Conference play on Tuesday, when the Bulldogs take on Regis at home.

Crook County (0-1) plays host to Sisters on Tuesday.

Late Friday results: CROSS-COUNTRY WILSONVILLE — Crook County got its first taste of competition at the Night Meet at Wilsonville High School.

Senior Carly Hibbs and freshman Irene Morales posted the fasted times for the Cowgirls, with Hibbs covering the 3,000meter course in 13 minutes, 12 seconds, for the 41st spot in the senior class division.

Morales’ time of 13:14 earned her the 25th place in the freshman division. Junior Grayson Munn paced the Cowboys in both time and place, finishing in 9:38 for fourth in the junior class. Junior Luis Rivera crossed the finish in 10:07 and 21st place in his division. Crook County returns to action next Saturday at the Jere Breese Memorial Ranch Stampede in Prineville.

Redmond (0-1) plays at home Thursday against Madras.

says Redmond coach Scott Brown, who lost two state qualifiers from last season to Ridgeview.

Senior Tefna MitchellHoegh will lead the Panthers this fall, according to Brown. Richee Stevens, Samantha Scholz and Kiersten Ochsner also return for Redmond after competing in last year’s 6A state meet. Newcomer Kylee Johnson, a senior, should round out the varsity squad, says Brown.

Ridgeview coach John Albrecht notes that his varsity team will be a mix of veteran runners and newcomers. “It’s a good turnout, considering we don’t have any seniors and it’s a new school,” Albrecht says.

Junior Dakota Steen, a transfer from Redmond High, should set the pace for the Ravens, who will compete for berths at state at the Greater Oregon League district championships.

Sisters finished third at the 4A state meet last season — just six points behind team champion Scappoose. This year, the Outlaws are poised to place in the top three or better at state, according to coach Charlie Kanzig.

“When you’re that close the year before, you want to see if you can move up,” Kanzig says.

The Outlaws return three out of the team’s top four varsity runners from last year: Zoe Falk. Madison Boettner, Aria Blumm and Emily Ford.

Crook County hopes to finish in the top six at state this season and improve upon its ninth-place finish at the 4A state meet in 2011. Seniors Carly Hibbs and Natalie Stenbeck will lead the team, according to Cowgirls coach Tracy Smith. Charsie Brewer, Kelsee Martin and Halie Jones expect to round out the squad.

La Pine, which competes in the Sky-Em League with Sisters, returns three varsity runners: Tysha Hulse, Chloe Sazama and McKenna Boen. The Hawks did not field a full team last year, but hope to have a complete squad in 2012.

At Madras, which fielded an incomplete team last season, the early turnout has been light. As of Saturday, the lone runner on the team is sophomore Nicole Andy, who did not run last season.

Rory McIlroy hits his tee shot on the third hole during the second round of the Deutsche Bank Championship at TPC Boston in Norton, Mass., Saturday.

McIlroy shoots 65 to take lead The Associated Press NORTON, Mass. — Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods played together in the opening two rounds of the season in Abu Dhabi. They were together again for the opening two rounds at Bethpage Black for the start of the FedEx Cup playoffs. The idea is to get them together with a trophy on the line.

Both took a step in that direction Saturday in the Deutsche Bank Championship.

McIlroy went from one extreme to another on par 5s just 30 minutes apart — a 4-iron into 10 feet for eagle on No. 18, a 5-wood in the water for bogey on No. 2 — but steadied himself for another 6-under 65.

Woods, playing in the afternoon, had three birdies on the opening six holes until he could no longer get a putt to drop. He made birdie putts of 30 feet and 15 feet late in the round to salvage a 68, which left him only two shots behind.

In between was Louis Oosthuizen, the former British Open champion with one of the purest swings in golf.

Oosthuizen had four 2s on his card of 65, and goes into the third round just one shot behind and in the final group with McIlroy.

“Everything seemed to work pretty well out there,” McIlroy said. “I felt like I drove the ball a bit better today and hit more fairways, which gave me some

GOLF ROUNDUP more opportunities to make birdies. And I was putting well enough to take a few of those.

Yeah, pleased with where I am and looking forward to the weekend.”

The weekend is half over, as this FedEx Cup playoff event is known for its Labor Day finish. There remains plenty of work to be done, especially with nine players separated by only three shots going into the weekend.

Ryan Moore had a 68, playing the front nine in 1 over, and joined Woods at 10-under 132.

Also on Saturday: Ramsay up one in Switzerland CR A NS -SU R-SI ER R E , Switzerland — Scotland’s Richie Ramsay thrived in the cold and wet Swiss Alps, shooting a 7-under 64 for a one-stroke lead after the third round of the European Masters. Ramsay had an 11-under total. Scotland’s Scot Paul Lawrie (67) and England’s Danny Willett (68) were tied for second. Lawrie won the Johnnie Walker Championship last week at Gleneagles for his second European Tour victory of the year.

ANALYSIS

JOHN COSTA

Attack our problems directly

O

ne national political convention down. One to go.

And two months to Election Day. It is tempting to be cynical about American politics.

Heaven knows, the politicians sure can provide enough reasons.

But stripped of the ads, the sound bites, the attack dogs and the fringe debating points, the central issues are critical to our future.

And the decisions we make when we cast our ballots will define our future and that of our children and grandchildren.

I confess that I have always been fascinated by American politics, starting with an intense interest in political history.

American leaders have been attacking each other since our founding, and often in terms and tone that would put a blush on the faces of today’s most rabid bloggers.

That said, the issues they insulted each other over were critical to our nation.

The difference, it seems to me, is that it is harder today to sift through the distractions to the key concerns.

And yet, we have to.

There is too much at stake.

We will read, watch and listen to a lot over the next eight weeks, but it will all fade to irrelevance if we cannot define and ask the most important questions and insist on direct answers from office seekers.

At any level: national, state or local.

For instance, as reported in The Bulletin, there are 12 candidates for four positions on the Bend city council.

As an editorial in today’s Bulletin states, there hasn’t been this much interest in city elections in years, and all for a spot that earns the winners $200 a month for four years and lifetime of aggravation.

More importantly, as the editorial observes today, there are critical issues.

The editorial asks, “Do your views match with theirs on Juniper Ridge, support for the bus system, electing the mayor, supporting the Oregon State University-Cascades branch expansion, plans for the north end of the parkway, cutbacks envisioned by the new police chief, tax breaks for new businesses, other infrastructure projects?

There are similar lists of key questions for state and national candidates as well.

And we better get answers.

We live in an unsettled world and while there are small signs of improvement, our economy is not very good at all, and our debt is out of control.

On Friday, Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke confirmed this view and suggested that more public stimulus of some kind is needed, an approach reportedly being resisted as repetitive and ineffective by other members of the Federal Reserve How many times over the last several national administrations have you heard the terms energy independence, entitlement reform, national debt crisis and a balanced budget?

Back in this neck of the woods, how often have you heard that Oregon has a structural financial imbalance between its commitments and its resources?

I heard it most powerfully at the start of the economic downturn. Not this one; the one a decade ago and from John Kitzhaber during his first go-round as governor.

Last week, Bulletin Salem reporter Lauren Dake wrote that the Oregon Public Employees Retirement System will require an average 45 percent increase from public employers to support the pension requirements of workers.

As Dake reported, just the Redmond school district would need to cough up another $2.3 million out of its operating funds for employees, which is the equivalent of 30 teachers or 13 school days. It’s $4.7 million in Bend-La Pine.

How often have you heard the term PERS reform, and in the same breadth that the median income of non-public employees continues to decline?

At some point, I keep dreaming, we’ll actually address these seemingly never-ending issues.

So, why not start now. — John Costa is editor-in-chief of The Bulletin. Contact: 541-383-0337, jcosta@bendbulletin.com

ou do have a choice. It’s a gift from 12 Bend residents who want your vote for a position on City Council.

All 12 are seeking the opportunity to represent you for the

next two years, and they hold a variety of views on the subjects facing the city.

That diversity of opinion means you can express yours with your vote.

Do you think the city should re-examine its Bridge Creek water project or move ahead with it?

Do you think officials have done a reasonable job of controlling the rising cost of city services? How about concerns that the city is too weighted in favor of development or favors the west side over the east side? Each of those issues has been cited by candidates announcing their campaigns.

And there’s more to explore: Do your views match with theirs on Juniper Ridge, support for the bus system, electing the mayor, supporting the Oregon State University-Cascades branch expansion, plans for the north end of the parkway, cutbacks envisioned by the new police chief, tax breaks for new businesses, other infrastructure projects?

There are four citywide positions up for election in November.

For seat 1, incumbent Tom Greene is not seeking re-election because he is running for a Deschutes County Commission seat.

Vying to replace him are Barb Campbell, Victor Chudowsky and Wade Fagen.

For seat 2, Mayor Jeff Eager

All you have to do is a little reading and maybe attend a candidate forum or two to determine which candidates best represent your thoughts. won’t run again, and seeking his seat are Charles Baer, Ed Barbeau, Doug Knight and Ed McCoy. For seat 3, incumbent Kathie Eckman is opposed by Ronald Boozell and Sally Russell.

For seat 4, incumbent Jim Clinton faces challenger Mike Roberts.

There hasn’t been this much interest in Bend City Council in years. In 2010, six candidates sought 3 positions; in 2008, there were nine candidates for four positions; and in 2006, five candidates for three positions.

All 12 this year are offering to work countless hours for the extremely limited pay of about $200 per month. All you have to do is a little reading and maybe attend a candidate forum or two to determine which candidates best represent your thoughts.

Revenue forecast holds message for Legislature

T

he state revenue forecast released last week included a piece of short-term good news overwhelmed by a pessimistic outlook for the next two years.

The forecast prompted Sen. Frank Morse, R-Albany, to ask: “What do we have left in the bag of tricks to jolt this economy,� according to a report in The Oregonian.

It’s an understandable expression of frustration as the state’s economy continues to struggle, and it’s a critical question for the Legislature as it works toward its next session in early 2013.

The quarterly revenue forecast is a projection of state revenues issued every three months. State economist Mark McMullen told legislators that short-term revenues are up, giving state government an extra $190 million for this fiscal year. He also said the housing picture has improved, and growth — though slow — continues. However, his outlook for the

next two years was more pessimistic, foreseeing uncertainty causing weak results.

Here’s a thought in response to Morse’s question: Do nothing. Do nothing that further constrains the natural energy of the marketplace.

Do nothing that adds regulations.

Do nothing that hampers job-creating business expansion.

But also, do something that cuts the cost of the state Public Employees Retirement System. Do something to pare down the miles of red tape that strangle innovation and development. Do something that cuts the fees and requirements that slow progress.

And for the sake of the future, impose sunset provisions so that laws and the resulting regulations disappear unless studied and determined to be effective.

We live in an age when the pendulum has swung way too far toward command by bureaucracy; legislators can help move us back toward a more reasonable center.

My Nickel’s Worth Out-of-context quotes In his Aug. 22 In My View piece (“Private sector is engine that drives economy, job creation�), Kenney Griffiths presents some reasonable counterpoints to another opinion piece by Richard Belzer.

It does, however, present a rather utopian view of corporate America: The system is mostly self-policing.

It’s a little like saying that we don’t need the Oregon State Police or Deschutes County sheriff patrolling the highway between Bend and Sisters because the road is clearly marked with 55 mph signs, so everyone will naturally go no faster than 55.

The main exception I take to his opinion piece, however, was his blatant non-contextual presentation of President Obama’s “you didn’t build that� quote. Conservatives have attempted to make much hay out of this quote, which in its entirety, actually is talking about the infrastructure that has allowed businesses to thrive. He was talking about roads, bridges, public services, the research and development that led to the Internet, not the businesses themselves. Unless you are a road construction business, you, in fact, did not build that. Conservatives got all bent out of shape when liberals took Mitt Romney’s “I like firing people� quote out of context; they should at least apply the same standards to their use of quotes.

Support Jason Conger Jason Conger has done an outstanding job of representing our District 54 (Bend). To briefly summarize:

In the area of job growth, he has spearheaded and passed legislation that expands Oregon’s enterprise zone program.

In the area of higher education, he has championed and passed legislation to provide bond funding for the purchase of OSU-Cascades Campus’ new graduate facility in Bend, which is a key step towards establishing a four-year university.

In the area of business, he supported legislation that reduced tax burdens on small businesses and families.

He helped balance a projected $3-billion budget deficit, while refusing to raise taxes on struggling Oregon families.

He passed legislation that will help local governments and businesses come into compliance with strict new environmental laws imposed by the federal government, and dramatically reduced the cost for Oregon businesses.

In the area of education, he supported legislation to allow parents to enroll their children in the school district of their choice.

He also supported providing more funding to schools to supplement the 2011-13 K-12 budget.

Vote for Jason Conger, state representative, District 54.

Solutions for jail space This is a reply to the article, “With no room in the jail, offenders wait their turn.�

The Aug. 23 article on the lack of room in the Crook County jail suggests that building a new jail is the solution. This is a reactionary solution rather than a proactive solution.

What about proactive solutions that decrease the need for jails: sentencing reform, policy that encourages the successful reintegration of inmates into communities and improves access to education, jobs and housing?

The U.S. incarceration rate is the highest in the world (738 per 100,000 people annually), approached by a distant second, Russia. The Oregon prison population is growing rapidly at a rate of 7.9 percent annually. Mass incarceration causes hardships on individuals, families and communities.

We need to re-examine our penal policies and their consequences.

We need efforts that focus on both the number of people we incarcerate and the resultant social impacts to the rapidly growing numbers of formerly incarcerated individuals, their families and their communities as a result of their “ex-felon� status.

Individuals leave prison or jail with few assets, weak social networks, limited or no housing and employment and a lack of knowledge of available services. A criminal record upon release hinders their employability and earning capacity.

The criminal justice system and re-entry services focus on the short-term needs of those transitioning from jail to communities.

They don’t address their long-term needs and the needs of communities that facilitate the successful reintegration of those individuals.

This would reduce recidivism rates and the need for jails, and keep communities safer.

Let’s think outside of the jail box.

Government has its purpose and its good points, too

By Lynette Sheffield he role of government is an important question to debate.

It is easy to imagine the private sector as being more efficient than a bureaucratic IN MY entity. But it isn’t always.

Before deciding if something should be moved from the public sector to the private, we should remember why the government got involved in the first place. It is because the private sector failed to do so.

There are times when it is more efficient and equitable for something to be run by the public.

Not everything is meant to be profitable. The Hoover Dam and All American Canal were government projects. But we all benefit from this use of water for hydroelectricity and agricultural purposes.

T

If it had been a good business idea, a business would have done it. If it had been left to each individual to acquire land rights and water access, it would not have worked as fairly or VIEW as well.

But because of the actions of the public as a whole, individual businesses profited.

Public education is not profitable.

But because all children are guaranteed an education, we all benefit. Each dollar spent on education is returned multiple times through increased productivity. Today’s kids solve tomorrow’s problems. Money spent on learning is never wasted. It is truly the best investment possible.

Hiring the fire department to only put out your house fire is irrational. If your house is surrounded by destroyed properties, it will decrease in value.

And if you’re in trouble, wouldn’t you rather call a police officer than a CEO? Sometimes, for reasons of efficiency and equality, it makes more sense to use the public sector.

Through the years, various calls have been made to privatize certain government functions. Cut through the red tape, deregulate and let the market decide. This action usually only benefits the few at the expense of the many.

Case in point: bank deregulation.

Back in the 1980s we had two main avenues of protecting our retirement income: pensions and interest-bearing bank accounts. The Dow Jones industrial average was approximately 759.

Then, things were changed to let the individual have direct contact with the money markets. Pensions

were replaced with 401(k)s that promised to let the individual benefit from Wall Street.

Today, it is not unusual for 401(k)s to have lost 50-70 percent of their value.

Yet, the Dow is currently over 13,000.

In the 1980s, passbook accounts and CDs yielded 5-12 percent return.

Through the magic of compound interest, that little bit you put aside each month grew to a nice nest egg.

These were decided to be passĂŠ.

The banks offered “money market� accounts that were supposedly tied to, well, money markets. But these days, you are lucky to get a one percent return from bank accounts even though the Dow is over 13,000. “Privatization� is code for Wall Street. When someone advocates privatizing a government-run function, it benefits Wall Street.

You can’t buy stock in a government-run entity, such as the U.S. Postal Service, but you can in UPS or FedEx, both of which operate on roads that were publicly paid for.

There was a time when the government was not involved in as many things. It was not a good time.

Because we were a civilized society, we refused to accept that outcome. We could not stand by while others fell through the safety net.

We also found that working together can result in more fair and efficient solutions.

As a result, our grandparents sacrificed so that we could have electricity, roads, clean water, safe medicines and basic education for all.

Now it is time for us to pay it forward. — Lynette Sheffield lives in Bend.

C The humpty-dumpty Middle East T

he United States is backing off from the Middle East — and the Middle East from the United States.

America is in the midst of the greatest domestic gas and oil revolution since the early 20th century.

If even guarded predictions about new North American reserves are accurate, over the next decade the entire continent may become energy-independent, without much need of petroleum imports from the Middle East.

America’s diminishing reliance on the Persian Gulf coincides with mounting Chinese dependency on Middle Eastern oil and gas. So as the Persian Gulf becomes less important to us, it grows even more critical to the oil-hungry, cash-laden — and opportunistic — Chinese.

After two wars in the Middle East, Americans are as tired of our forces being sent over there as Middle Easterners are of having us there.

The usual Arab complaint against the United States during the Cold War was that it supported anti-communist authoritarians in the oil-rich Gulf and ignored democratic reform. After the 1991 Gulf War, the next charge was that America fought Saddam Hussein only to free an oil-rich, pro-American monarchy in Kuwait, without any interest in helping reformists in either Kuwait or Iraq.

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON After the Gulf War of 2003, there was widespread new anger about the use of American arms to forcefeed democracy down the throat of Iraq. Finally, during the 2011 Arab Spring, the Arab world charged that the United States was too tardy in offering political support for insurgents in Egypt and Tunisia, and again late in “leading from behind” in helping European nations remove Libyan dictator Moammar Gadhafi.

Now the Arab world is hectoring America to help overthrow Bashar al-Assad in Syria.

Let’s get this all straight. America has been damned for its Machiavellian shenanigans in supporting authoritarian governments; for its naive idealism in using force to implant democracies; for its ambivalence in not using force to protect democratic protestors; and for its recent isolationism in ignoring ongoing Arab violence. Why, then, bother?

There are other growing fault lines. The old conventional wisdom was that Sunni Muslims shared Israeli fears of a Persian bomb on the horizon. The new conventional wisdom is that the Arab masses that are propelling the Muslim Brother-

hood into power in Egypt prefer the idea of a nuked Israel to the danger of a nuclear Iran.

The subtext of Middle Eastern anti-Americanism is that the region, if given a chance, will embrace its own brand of freedom But that does not appear to be happening in Egypt or Libya. And for now, democracy does not seem to be the common glue that holds together various Syrians fighting to overthrow the odious Assad dictatorship.

Newly elected Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi of the Muslim Brotherhood attended college and later taught classes in California.

Apparently Morsi once came here to enjoy American freedom and for his family to be protected by our tolerance and security. Is that why he is crushing liberal opponents and the Egyptian media — to ensure that they never enjoy the protections and opportunities that were offered to him while a guest in the United States?

Note that anti-Americanism was often attributed to the unique unpopularity of Texan George W. Bush, who invaded two Middle Eastern countries, tried to foster democracies, and institutionalized a number of tough antiterrorism security policies. In turn, Barack Obama was supposed to be the antidote — a Muslim family on his father’s side, his middle name Hussein, early schooling in Muslim In-

donesia, a number of pro-Islamic speeches and interviews, apologies abroad, and a postracial personal story.

Yet recent polls show that Obama is even less popular in the Middle East than was Bush.

Staggering U.S. debt also explains the impending divorce. With $5 trillion in new American borrowing in just the last four years, and talk of slashing $1 trillion from the defense budget over the next 10 years, America’s options abroad may be narrowing. President Obama also envisions a more multilateral world in which former American responsibilities in the Middle East are outsourced to collective interests like the United Nations, the European Union and the Arab League.

Perhaps soon the problem will be that we simply will not have enough power to use it for much of anything — and would have to ask the U.N. for permission if we did.

Usually nothing good comes from American isolationism, especially given our key support for a vulnerable democratic Israel. But for a variety of reasons, good and bad, our humpty-dumpty policy of Middle East engagement is now shattered.

And no one knows how to — or whether we even should — put it together again.

Poverty is what plagues our schools

By Daniel Akst Newsday

A

re American schools the best in the world? The answer is a resounding maybe — which is good news indeed for this back-toschool season.

Beating up on public education is practically our national sport. I often do it myself. But overlooked in the ongoing assault is strong evidence that U.S. schools actually are worldbeaters — except for the problem of poverty.

When it comes to reading, in fact, our schools may well be the best in the world. As Stanford University education professor Linda DarlingHammond points out, U.S. 15-year olds in schools with fewer than 10 percent of kids eligible for free or cutrate lunch “score first in the world in reading, outperforming even the famously excellent Finns.”

This 10 percent threshold is significant because, in highachieving countries such as Finland, few schools have more poor kids than that. In other words, if you look at American schools that compare socioeconomically, we’re doing great.

But wait, it gets better. U.S. schools where fewer than 25 percent are impoverished (by the same lunch measure) beat all 34 of the relatively affluent countries studied except South Korea and Finland.

U.S. schools where 25 to 50 percent of students were poor still beat most

other countries.

These results are from the 2009 Programme for International Student Assessment, a widely followed effort to compare educational outcomes. PISA scores inspire a good deal of hand-wringing in this country — overall, we were 14th in reading — but I suspect we’ve been taking away the wrong message by not adjusting for poverty.

That’s odd, because most people know there’s a connection between poor families and poor school performance. The link is reflected in various sources, including the SAT, the

National Assessment of Educational Progress, and the Trends in International Math and Science Study.

So the connection, which exists in most countries, is clear. But somehow the implications haven’t been, and now that school is again upon us, it’s worth thinking this through.

If American kids who aren’t poor are doing so well, maybe our problem isn’t bad teachers or inadequate school spending or indifferent parents or screen-besotted children.

Maybe the problem is simply poverty — and the shameful fact that we have so much more of it than any

comparable country.

How much child poverty are we living with? A study this year by UNICEF found a U.S. child poverty rate of 23.1 percent — way beyond any other economically advanced nation except Romania. In Spain, which is in a depression, the figure was 17.1 percent.

In Canada it was 13.3. In Finland, 5.3.

If poverty is the problem, families in middle-class school districts needn’t worry much about their kids’ schools. But they should be worried about the society in which they live, for even if we have hearts of stone, we do not have heads made of the same material. Economic growth — to say nothing of a healthy democracy — depends on an educated citizenry, and we cannot afford to let a large segment of the populace embark on adulthood seriously underschooled.

Some education reformers, such as Diane Ravitch, understand poverty’s effects on our schools. Geoffrey Canada has launched the Harlem Children’s Zone Project to provide poor children with a comprehensive set of programs addressing both poverty and education. It’s an effort well worth watching.

If the problem with education in this country really is poverty, it will not be easy to fix. Yet that is no reason for kidding ourselves about what’s actually wrong.

Social Security’s woes are worse than you think

By Ramesh Ponnuru Bloomberg News

W

hile the Romney and Obama camps have made increasingly bitter accusations about each other’s plans for Medicare, a bipartisan consensus on entitlements has emerged in the past few years. Too bad that consensus is wrong.

On both left and right, the politicians and the experts are saying the United States needs to fix Medicare — and have made fixing Social Security an afterthought. President Barack Obama has signed changes to Medicare into law, but has done nothing about Social Security. For two years in a row, Republicans in Congress have supported budgets that rein in the growth of Medicare spending but leave Social Security alone. Expect to hear a lot more about Medicare than Social Security at the Republican convention this week.

The main reason Medicare is getting more attention is that in the long run, it has much higher costs than Social Security. That’s why it’s often described, accurately, as the driver of America’s long-term debt problem.

The Social Security gap looks small, though, only in relation to Medicare. On any other scale, it’s pretty big. The 1983 deal to fix Social Security is often held up as a model of bipartisan achievement,

with the implication that it just needs to be replicated to fill the gap: No big deal. Charles Blahous, a Social Security trustee and the author of a recent book on the program, points out that this model is actually pretty discouraging.

In 1983, the financing gap over the next 75 years amounted to 1.8 percent of payroll. Blahous estimates that the gap today, measured using the same standards as in 1983, is 3.5 percent: almost double what it was then. And every year that passes without action, that number gets bigger. Do we think today’s politicians are prepared to solve twice as large a problem as their predecessors did?

Right now, we spend more money on Social Security than on Medicare, and that will remain the case for a while. The programs’ trustees project that by 2035 Social Security will consume 6.4 percent of the economy and Medicare 5.7 percent. The Medicare projection may be optimistic about recent attempts to impose cost controls, but we shouldn’t expect Medicare to become vastly larger than Social Security in the next two decades. After that point, Social Security costs start going down as demographics play out while Medicare becomes a vastly larger problem.

But our finances will be in what’s technically called a world of hurt before Social Security costs peak.

Under current projections by the Congressional Budget Office, by 2025 public debt will have reached 106 percent of gross domestic product. By 2035, it will have reached 181 percent. What would happen after that point is an academic question: We can’t allow ourselves to get there.

We need to fix both programs. If anything, it’s Social Security that ought to be saved first because it’s the more urgent near-term problem. Some of the steps we can take to make the program solvent, moreover, would improve Medicare’s finances, too. Raising the retirement age, for example, would encourage people to work longer and thus pay more taxes into both programs.

Perhaps even more important, we have a better sense of how to restrain the growth of Social Security than of Medicare.

One promising option is to reduce the growth of Social Security benefit levels, especially for high earners.

The program could be reformed so that high earners who retire in 2040 receive the same benefit level that high earners who retire in 2020 will — with an adjustment for inflation, but nothing more. Under the program as it stands now, those future retirees will get a bigger benefit.

Benefit levels for people in the middle of the income spectrum,

meanwhile, could be set so that they more than keep up with inflation but don’t rise as much as currently scheduled.

It’s easy to attack this sort of proposal. In the past, opponents have said, for example, that it would be a draconian 40 percent cut in benefits for high earners. That’s true, when the proposal is compared with the benefit levels that the law has scheduled but hasn’t figured out how to pay for. Compared with today’s benefit levels, though, it’s not a cut at all.

Democrats will prefer to raise taxes, especially on high earners, to let benefits grow faster. The drawback to this approach is that higher payroll taxes, the CBO has found, discourage people from working and saving. We would be taking a hit to economic growth for a purpose — boosting benefit levels for relatively well-off seniors — that shouldn’t be a high social priority. It seems perverse to raise taxes on high earners to finance higher benefits for them.

Just to have that argument over taxes and benefit levels would be progress. One way or the other, we need to get Social Security’s finances in order, instead of acting as though there’s no problem to be solved.

THOMAS FRIEDMAN

Egyptian president’s wrong turn

I

find it very disturbing that one of the first trips by Egypt’s newly elected president, Mohammed Morsi, will be to attend the Nonaligned Movement’s summit meeting in Tehran this week. Excuse me, President Morsi, but there is only one reason the Iranian regime wants to hold the meeting in Tehran and have heads of state like you attend, and that is to signal to Iran’s people that the world approves of their country’s clerical leadership and therefore they should never, ever, ever again think about launching a democracy movement — the exact same kind of democracy movement that brought you, Mr. Morsi, to power in Egypt.

In 2009, this Iranian regime literally killed the Green Revolution. It gunned down hundreds and jailed thousands of Iranians who wanted the one thing that Egyptians got: to have their votes counted honestly and the results respected. Morsi, who was brought to power by a courageous democracy revolution that neither he nor his Muslim Brotherhood party started — but who benefited from the free and fair election that followed — is lending his legitimacy to an Iranian regime that brutally crushed just such a movement in Tehran. This does not augur well for Morsi’s presidency. In fact, he should be ashamed of himself.

“The Iranian regime has offered Morsi a sanitized tour of its nuclear facilities” noted Karim Sadjadpour, the Iran expert at the Carnegie Endowment. “As a former political prisoner in Mubarak’s Egypt, Morsi should also request a visit to Tehran’s notorious Evin prison. It will remind him of his own past and offer him a glimpse of Iran’s future.”

Egyptian officials say Morsi is only stopping in Tehran for a few hours to hand over the presidency of the Nonaligned Movement to Iran from Egypt.

Really? He could have done that by mail. It would have sent a powerful democratic message. By the way, what is the Nonaligned Movement anymore? “Nonaligned against what and between whom?” asked Michael Mandelbaum, a foreign policy specialist at Johns Hopkins.

The Nonaligned Movement was conceived at the Bandung summit in 1955, but there was a logic to it then.

The world was divided between Western democratic capitalists and Eastern Communists, and developing states like Egypt, Yugoslavia and Indonesia declared themselves “nonaligned” with these two blocs. But “there is no Communist bloc today,” Mandelbaum said. “The main division in the world is between democratic and undemocratic countries.”

This has nothing to do with Israel or Iran’s nukes. If Morsi wants to maintain a cold peace with Israel, that is his business. As for Morsi himself, I’d like to see him succeed in turning Egypt around. It would be a huge boost to democracy in the Arab world. But what Egypt needs most will not be found in Tehran. Morsi’s first big trip shouldn’t have been to just China and Iran. It should have been all across Europe and Asia to reassure investors and tourists that Egypt is open for business again.

If Morsi needs a primer on the democracy movement in Iran (whose Islamic regime broke relations with Egypt in 1979 to protest the peace treaty with Israel) he can read the one offered by Stanford’s Iran expert, Abbas Milani, on the U.S. Institute of Peace website: “The Green Movement reached its height when up to 3 million peaceful demonstrators turned out on Tehran streets to protest official claims that Mahmoud Ahmadinejad had won the 2009 presidential election in a landslide. Their simple slogan was: ‘Where is my vote?’ … Over the next six months, the Green Movement evolved from a mass group of angry voters to a nationwide force demanding the democratic rights originally sought in the 1979 revolution, rights that were hijacked by radical clerics.”

By early 2010, the regime had quashed all public opposition.

That is the regime that Morsi will be helping to sanitize. One at least hopes he read the letter sent to him by an Iranian democracy group, Green Messengers of Hope, urging Morsi to remind his Iranian hosts “of the fates of the leaders who kept turning their backs on the votes of their people, and to urge them to govern their country relying on the support of the Iranian people rather than military forces.” Morsi might want to even remind himself of that.

Ridpath thriller set in Iceland

Novel transforms a religious figure into a real woman

THE REVENGE OF AYN RAND

“Far North”

by Michael Ridpath (St. Martin’s Minotaur, 384 pgs., $25.99)

“The Mirrored World”

by Debra Dean (Harper, 256 pgs., $25.99)

By Mary Ann Gwinn The Seattle Times

British crime writer Michael Ridpath has entered a crowded field with his new novel, “Far North,” — that of thrillers based in Northern countries, featuring ice, intrigue and violence. While the Swedenbased “The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo” set this trend on fire, R i d p a t h ’s terrain is Iceland, an insular country recently devastated by the collapse of the world economy.

“Far North” takes up where Ridpath’s first Icelandic novel, “Where the Shadows Lie,” left off. In 2011’s “Shadows,” Ridpath introduced Magnus Jonson, a Boston police detective working with the Reykjavík police department. Magnus was loaned to that force after, as a witness in a policecorruption scandal, he was targeted for execution. This made it expedient for him to get out of Beantown.

Magnus was born and raised in Iceland, but at age 12 his father moved Magnus and most of the family to the United States for some not very well-explained reasons. This background enables Ridpath to interweave two stories — that of Magnus’ family’s history and a contemporary mystery involving Iceland’s financial downfall. Magnus’ position as an insider-outsider makes him an astute observer of Icelanders, a proud, independent and eccentric people whose lives play out against the bleak but spectacular Icelandic landscape.

Iceland purists may point out that they have their own best-selling thriller writer, Arnaldur Indridason, author of “Jar City” and other brooding mysteries. Testdrive them both — this ancient land has a lot of secrets to be discovered.

Ayn Rand, pictured in 1962, was a Russian-born American novelist who died in 1982. Her writings include “Atlas Shrugged” and “The Fountainhead.”

Author’s popularity surges in GOP sphere

By Tirdad Derakhshani The Philadelphia Inquirer

Ayn Rand, the novelist and philosophical thinker whose books have for decades been ignored by literature and philosophy departments, had her revenge when Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney named sometime Randian Paul Ryan as his vice presidential pick.

“The reason I got involved in public service, by and large, if I had to credit one thinker, one person, it would be Ayn Rand,” the Wisconsin congressman told the Randian Atlas Society in 2005.

The attention has generated a swell of posthumous popularity for Rand that has boosted sales of her books “Atlas Shrugged” and “The Fountainhead,” which jumped 20 percent on Amazon.com in one recently, according to Bloomberg News Service.

Ryan is the latest in a string of (usually conservative) politicians, pundits, and entrepreneurs who have acknowledged a debt to Rand, including economist and former Federal Reserve chairman Alan Greenspan, Texas congressman and one-time White House hopeful Ron Paul, Comcast-Spectacor chairman Ed Snider, Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales, and Craigslist mastermind Craig Newman.

What’s more, two of Rand’s central tenets put her at center stage in the presidential election: She defended a form of individualism so radical that it’s rarely seen in mainstream politics, and she believed America could thrive only with an unregulated free-market economy.

As Ryan put it in his 2005 speech: “The fight we are in here, make no mistake about it, is a fight of individualism vs. collectivism.” (Ryan, a Roman Catholic, has since distanced himself from Rand, a radical atheist.)

Individual rights What makes Rand so attractive to the right?

“She’s for free markets and for free minds,” said William Thomas, programs director at the Atlas Society. “She’s for freedom of speech … and she is for economic freedom: deregulation, no taxes, and a free market.”

Rand biographer Anne C. Heller said the Russian-born Rand, who fled the Soviet Union in 1925, had a lifelong aversion to collectivism and extolled the idea of the self-made individual.

“Her idea of individuals is a beautiful idea. It’s the best of Ayn Rand. It’s about individual rights,” said Heller, author of “Ayn Rand and the World She Made.” “The heroes in her novels, as well as her own persona, was that of the rebellious outsider, and Americans love that.

We’ve always loved Huck Finn and Holden Caulfield.”

What makes Rand’s heroes unique — Howard Roark in “The Fountainhead” and John Galt in Rand’s magnum opus, “Atlas Shrugged” — is that un-

like Mark Twain’s or J.D. Salinger’s characters, they spend very little time worrying about the common good.

“Rand describes another kind of American myth: the self-made person who owed nothing to anyone,” said Heller, a New York-based magazine writer and editor. “You know, it’s the frontier myth, of the men and women who make their own way and didn’t have to answer to others.”

Heller said it was a potent myth, but not perhaps very realistic.

“I think Ayn Rand was writing about an America that already had died when she was writing.”

Choosing for herself Rand took this idea to its logical extreme, said Stanford University historian Jennifer Burns. For Rand, to be an individual entails being responsible for every aspect of one’s life.

“She came from a Jewish family, but she was an atheist who said her Jewish heritage wasn’t important to her because she didn’t choose it,” said Burns, author of the 2009 biography “Goddess of the Market: Ayn Rand and the American Right.”

“It was the same thing with her family: She left them because they weren’t people she chose.”

Thomas said Rand was a deeply ethical thinker in the tradition of Immanuel Kant, who outlined seven major virtues, including integrity, honesty, and justice.

Rand said “treat others as they deserve,” Thomas said.

Conservatives seem drawn to Rand, Heller said, because she developed a moral defense of laissez-faire capitalism.

“Before Rand, the defense of capitalism … was always practical,” said Heller. Rand, she said, believed that the greater good could be served only if we allow people with vision and talent to achieve their goals.

That we should divert funds not to the poor, but to help foster that talent.

“She believed that the rich became rich because they were the productive ones, those who built big enterprises or came up with great ideas,” said Heller.

“They were the ones who were pushing civilization forward.”

Heller said Rand opposed any form of regulation that might slow down progress, or any form of incentives or tax breaks that might allow one company to succeed over another.

What about the rest of us — the non-gifted, the people who didn’t become captains of industry?

“Those of us who are virtuous are doing our best to contribute our part and take what we earn and no more,” said Heller. “The marketplace and not government was the best arbiter of values.”

Burns said Rand believed liberals exaggerated the economic oppression wrought by the preNew Deal robber barons. The novelist held that economic exploitation would be corrected in a truly free marketplace where workers, no less than consumers, would have the choice of voting against a company by leaving.

The flip side Temple University political scientist Joseph Schwartz, a decided anti-Randian, is dubious.

“Sure, some people can pull themselves by their bootstraps, but many people don’t even have bootstraps,” said Schwartz, whose books include “The Future of Democratic Equality: Reconstructing Social Solidarity in a Fragmented United States.”

“What is attractive to conservative elites about Rand is that she gives them permission to gut social welfare, including popular programs like Medicare and Social Security.”

Schwartz said that the 18thcentury philosopher Adam Smith, who is cited as a hero by most free-market advocates, worried that without limitations, the market would become inhumane and that the market could not be allowed to define all human values. “Adam Smith said that even a competitive capitalist economy must be based on nonmarket values of empathy, caring, and selflessness.

How else are we to raise our children?

“Even rugged individuals would not prosper if they don’t have a decent legal system and public school system,” he said.

Ironically, Rand would deplore many conservatives today because they support corporate tax breaks and offer tax incentives to attract new businesses. She’d see it as a form of socialism, said Schwartz.

Rand would fault Ryan for his religious beliefs and antiabortion stance, Burns said. “‘This is a dangerous person,’ she’d say, because he is mixing religion and politics.”

Was St. Xenia of Russia divine — or just plain mad?

Xenia, the beloved saint who lived in the 18th century, gave up all her possessions after her husband died so she could dedicate herself to helping the poor.

Her decision to live in the slums of St. Petersburg so horrified her family — she was born into nobility — that they attempted to have her declared incompetent. And as her actions increasingly drew attention to the poor, the royal court of Catherine the Great began to view her as a threat.

In her new historical novel, “The Mirrored World,” Miami author Debra Dean breathes life into the distant figure of Xenia, turning her from a dusty religious icon into a flesh-and-blood woman who channeled the greatest pain of her young life — the loss of her husband, a singer in the empress’ Imperial Choir — into a mission from God. Dean doesn’t attempt to diagnose Xenia’s behavior.

Instead, she tells the story as an observer, through the eyes of Xenia’s younger cousin, Dasha, whose life is shaped by her deep friendship with the woman who became a famous soothsayer and healer. But Russia itself is perhaps the strongest character in the book, a frosty seductress of swirling snow and mean hovels, velvety furs and glowing embers, crossdressing costume balls, an ice palace, even an Italian castrati.

Xenia’s early life is marked by a terrible fire in 1736 that consumes an entire district of St. Petersburg, sending the girl and her family to live with Dasha’s family. But even then, Xenia is clearly different. When the girls hear wolves howling in the distance, Dasha shivers with the fear that the wolves are coming to eat them. To Xenia, though, the howls are a beautiful, mournful song: “Listen, she is singing of how lonesome she is …

There, her mate is answering. It must be a very beautiful sound to her.”

The scene sets the tone for what’s to come, a story played in a minor key, of love, loss, broken hearts and longing. Even when Xenia meets and marries her soul mate, Andrei, the book sounds a melancholy

note, with Dasha noting that “I am conscious that I have violated a tradition of storytelling: a wedding shall signal the happy close to a tale.”

But Xenia and Dasha’s lives have only begun. Xenia, happy in marriage but disheartened by the requirements of life at court, begins to long for a baby.

Dasha worries no man will marry her. Both of their lives will be marred by tragedy, but each will eventually find her way to peace and even happiness.

Dean, author of the critically acclaimed “The Madonnas of Leningrad” and the short story collection “Confessions of a Falling Woman,” writes with an internal focus and a wistful grace that suit the subject and the time period. In her skilled hands, history comes alive. You can almost hear the sleigh bells tinkle and the sled’s runners squeaking through the snow as the minarets and domes of St. Petersburg appear on the horizon.

But even though the setting is romantic, the writing is far from sentimental. Dean’s portrayal of the cutthroat court life is fascinating — the casual cruelty of the powerful, the glittering excesses, the intricate rules for proper behavior. A fabulous mask of fanned-out peacock feathers, with two holes cut to allow the lady’s eyes to peer through, is dismissed by the ladies of the court as lacking because it doesn’t have gold-tipped feathers. When the court travels with the empress to visit a nearby lake, the miles-long procession carries all of the empress’ furniture and thousands of her dresses.

In another disturbing scene, Dasha and Xenia visit the ice palace, a replica of a real palace carved for the empress’ amusement. The empress used the palace to stage an elaborate marriage production, forcing a jester to marry a hunched old woman and then spend the night on an ice bed, stripped of clothes. When the two women enter the bedroom, they spot a tuft of ragged hair frozen to the ice pillow, bloody at the roots where a bit of scalp remained.

In The Mirrored World, Dean takes the bare framework of an extraordinary life and weaves an absorbing and intimate story of devotion around it. Though the world she creates is harsh and cold at times, it is the warmth at its center — the power of love — that stays with you in the end.

Care for loved ones. Comfort for all.

Author’s latest is darkly funny “One Last Thing Before I Go”

by Jonathan Tropper (Dutton, 352 pgs., $26.95)

By Hannah Samp son The Miami Herald

Drew Silver is one of modern literature’s more pathetic losers. And that’s before he discovers an aortic dissection is about to kill him.

The good news for Silver — which is what everyone, even his daughter, calls him — is that surgery can save his life. There’s a bit of bad news, and part of it is that the procedure would be performed by Silver’s ex-wife’s fiance. The other is that Silver, who is 44, doesn’t want the surgery.

The sad-sack hero of Jonathan Tropper’s affecting, darkly funny new novel has already given up when the novel opens.

Plagued by tinnitus, regret and ennui, he’s spent the last seven years and four months of his life in a state of numb inaction after a divorce from Denise (his fault) and the alienation of his daughter Casey (also his fault).

Once upon a time, he was a big deal: the drummer and co-songwriter in a onehit wonder band, The Bent Daisies, that broke up when the front man decided to go solo. His leftover claims to that fame are occasional recognition and the residual checks from the song that made it big: “… (H)e was blinded by the flare of fleeting, accidental stardom, and when it was over, he never stopped seeing spots.”

These days, Silver gets gigs as a drummer at weddings. Denise is about to get remarried, and Casey, 18, heading for Princeton and valedictorian of her class, has just told Silver that she’s pregnant.

But Silver, after the ministroke that reveals his condition, realizes he hasn’t felt so alive in years. His wife begins to recognize the man she once loved, and his daughter seems to want him around. He sets goals: Be a better father, a better man, fall in love, then die.

He spends the bulk of the novel thinking of the things he wishes he’d said or done — or could still do — and accidentally saying those things out loud in front of the relevant people. Secrets are revealed, often to the service of plot development, and unkind truths are told.

Despite the many new ways Silver discovers to disappoint and bewilder his extended family, Tropper convincingly portrays him as sympathetic and even likable. His relationship with Casey is complicated: She’s been wounded by her father’s absence, and she’s not afraid to hurt him back.

But she’s also willing to love him and eager to let him be the dad she needs. To the author’s credit, Denise is not a wench; her husband-tobe is altogether decent, and Silver’s father, a rabbi, and mother are wise and lovely.

Silver has no one but himself to blame for his dysfunction — and he does.

During a trip to the beach with his daughter: “It would have been so easy, he thinks, to do things like this; take her on drives, to the beach, to a movie. Anything. It’s not like he was busy traveling the world. He was right here, and nowhere to be found.”

Despite his family’s pleading, Silver doesn’t want to try to save himself because he can’t imagine going back to his former life. He’s a frustrating man.

But Tropper has created a character so hapless and endearing and a story so compelling that the reader can’t help but take the journey with Silver — no matter where it leads.

Partisan Continued from F1 Like families, the parties coalesce to repel threats from outside — typified this summer by the scorched-earth tactics of the campaigns of President Barack Obama and Republican Mitt Romney. But both parties also are fractious coalitions of people who may converge on some core issues but whose world views, economic situations and attitudes on policy are far from uniform.

These disparate and everevolving coalitions present challenges for both Obama and Romney. They are why Romney struggled through much of the Republican nominating contest to win over key parts of his party and only united the GOP coalition by picking Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wis., as his vice presidential running mate. It is why Obama has faced dissonance and disappointment over the way he has governed from some elements of the Democratic Party, particularly many liberals who nonetheless back him strongly for re-election.

The two major parties are now on full display, with the Republicans’ national convention just ended, and the Democrats’ just beginning. Both parties are trying to project an image of unity as they draw distinctions with their opponents. But Romney’s selection of Ryan is a reminder that the parties recognize that success in November depends in part on keeping their coalitions together and energized.

The survey examined the breadth and diversity of the electorate to explore the changing shape of a Republican coalition that has become more Southern in its base and more conservative in its views, and yet encompasses which significant disagreements remain over whether confrontation or cooperation with the Democrats is the preferred path for governing.

The study looks, too, at a Democratic Party that, while women make up a clear majority of supporters and grassroots activists have a large voice, is a coalition of groups with divergent views on government regulation of the economy, the size of government, the role of religion in public life and such hotbutton social issues as abortion and same-sex marriage.

Here, we focus on those Americans who, when asked, say they identify with either the Republican or Democratic Party.

In parallel, we use the survey data to explore the views of the growing number of people who decline to pledge allegiance to either party — those Americans who call themselves independent, a fast-growing part of the electorate (see Page F6).

Polarization In some ways, political parties matter less than they once did, but party identification is one of the most reliable indicators of how someone will vote on Election Day. The PostKaiser study breaks down the two parties into nine groups of voters: five groups who call themselves Republicans and four who call themselves Democrats.

Examined in this way, the fissures within the Republican and Democratic coalitions are more sharply etched. One can see elements of the Republican Party of a generation ago in Republicans who are economically conservative but socially moderate. One can also see the new Republican Party in those Americans who strongly identify with the tea party movement or are evangelical Christians who came to prominence in the party over the past two decades. There is even a group of Republicans who see a role for bigger government.

The Democratic coalition includes a large share of liberal, affluent and mostly secular white voters but also a loyal cadre of African Americans and Latinos who are more religious and more conservative on social issues. The gap between them on social issues remains wide, but they are generally united in advocating a significant role for government.

The survey speaks to the two realities of political life — each party bound together in opposition to the other at the same time both continue to squabble internally. This article will first look at the divisions between the parties, which are reflected daily in the presidential campaign debate and which have defined the battles between the president and congressional Republicans during Obama’s first term. Then it will describe

the internal tensions of each of those parties.

Partisan polarization once was considered an affliction only of elected officials and political elites. Now it has gone mainstream. Citizens’ ties to their political parties are stronger than ever, and passions on issues are intensely felt.

Deep divisions Fourteen years ago, The Washington Post, along with the Kaiser Family Foundation and Harvard University, asked people to assess the strength of their allegiance to the parties. At that time, 41 percent of Republicans and 45 percent of Democrats said they considered themselves “strong” partisans. In the new Post-Kaiser survey, those numbers have shot up to 65 and 62 percent, respectively.

Over this time period, the gap between Democrats and Republicans has widened, particularly when it comes to attitudes about the federal government.

A clear majority of Republicans now score highly on a series of questions about limited government. That was not the case in 1998. Also unlike in 1998, a majority of Democrats in the new survey cluster on the other end of the scale.

One set of answers is particularly revealing: The number of Republicans who feel strongly that the government controls too much of daily life jumped 24 percentage points since the 1998 survey, to 63 percent. The number of Democrats strongly disagreeing with the assertion doubled.

The debates during Obama’s presidency over health care, economic stimulus and financial regulatory reform underscore how far apart the parties stand on economic issues and on attitudes about government’s role. For example, more than twice as many Democrats as Republicans say regulation of business is necessary to protect the public interest. Most Republicans say regulation does more harm than good.

The two parties are miles apart on whether it is better to have smaller government with fewer services or bigger government with more services.

Republicans overwhelmingly say people should take care of themselves; Democrats overwhelmingly say government should do everything possible to improve living standards.

Republicans see deficit reduction as more important than spending money in an effort to create jobs. Democrats believe the opposite.

Divisions over religious and social issues are equally stark.

As a whole, the two parties are mirror images of each other on whether organized religious groups should stay out of politics or stand up for their beliefs in the political arena. They are similarly at odds over whether there should be a high wall of separation between church and state and whether government should more actively protect religious heritage.

Both parties contain deeply observant people as well as many who seldom go to church or synagogue or mosque. But in general, a higher percentage of Republicans, by far, are frequent churchgoers. One of the fastest-growing segments of the Democratic Party in recent years has been nonbelievers or infrequent churchgoers.

Big majorities in both parties see tolerance of other’s lifestyles as important, but Republicans and Democrats take opposite positions on whether changing mores should affect personal convictions. A majority of Democrats agree with the proposition that as the world changes, people should adjust their morals and values.

An even bigger majority of Republicans disagree with that statement, with most saying so strongly. Far more Republicans than Democrats say Americans in general are too tolerant of behavior that once was con-

sidered wrong or immoral.

On abortion and gay marriage, the divide between the parties is wide. Twice as many Democrats as Republicans say abortion should be legal in all or most cases. The margin between the parties is similarly gaping when it comes to samesex marriage.

Recent shootings in Colorado and Wisconsin have sparked renewed discussion about gun laws. Over the past two decades, overall support for new restrictions has declined, to the point that today barely more than half of those surveyed favored stricter laws.

Republicans overwhelmingly oppose tougher restrictions.

Democrats overwhelmingly favor tougher laws.

Areas of consensus On some issues, partisan divisions have blocked action in Congress, but the Post-Kaiser study shows that rank-and-file Republicans and Democrats are less divided.

Take immigration, for example. Almost half of Republicans and three-quarters of Democrats say they favor a policy that would allow illegal immigrants to apply for legal status. And six in 10 Republicans, along with almost nine in 10 Democrats, say the government should regulate the release of greenhouse gases from power plants, cars and factories to reduce global warming.

There is also consensus on two international issues. Few in each party say the United States should play the leading role in the world. More say this country should play a major but not leading role, and around a quarter in each party would prefer the United States to play a minor role. This is an example of an area where Romney, who prefaced his overseas trip with a speech in which he said it is essential for the United States to play the lead role, is out of step with rank-and-file Republicans.

On the trade-off between fighting terrorism and protecting civil liberties, big majorities in both parties say the government is doing enough to protect the liberties of individual citizens. Five years ago, the country was evenly divided on that question, with Democrats far more worried about civil liberties.

Another key area where Republicans and Democrats see the world the same way, though from totally different perspectives, is a shared sense of being at risk of losing what they have. Almost identical percentages — around six in 10 in each party — say groups and people who hold values similar to theirs are losing influence in American life.

Given that, is there any wonder the presidential campaign is being fought as if it were a lifeand-death struggle politically?

What does it mean to be a Republican in 2012? Republicans are conservative, opposed to big government, overwhelmingly white and spread through all regions, although with a heavy concentration in the South. At least that’s the case on the surface.

Fault lines lie beneath, revealed in primary election battles between tea party conservatives and more establishment politicians and tensions that pit economic conservatives against religious and social conservatives.

Republican factions The Post-Kaiser analysis reveals five distinct types of Republicans. Four are familiar elements of the GOP coalition: “tea party Republicans,” “oldschool Republicans,” “religious values voters” and “pro-government Republicans.” The fifth, a group we label “window shoppers,” are self-identified Republicans who in many respects seem out of place in an increasingly conservative party. (This article labels these groups as such, in quotations.)

There are demographic differences among the groups.

The party is about evenly split between men and women, but women make up a solid majority of “values voters,” while men make up about six in 10 “old-school” Republicans.

Republican identifiers are overwhelmingly white, but two groups — “pro-government” conservatives and “window shoppers” — include significant numbers of nonwhites. “Window shoppers,” the category that is least likely to agree with other groups within the party on many issues, are by far the youngest group: four in 10 are under age 30.

“Old-school” Republicans generally have higher incomes and more formal education.

More than two-thirds of those in the “pro-government” group have annual household incomes of less than $50,000 and do not have college degrees.

Big majorities of the “progovernment,” “tea party” and “values” groups attend religious services weekly; few “window shoppers” and “old-school” Republicans go to church that regularly. There also are stark differences when it comes to attitudes about the role religion should play in public life.

Underlying demographic and behavioral differences lead to conflicting attitudes and values on many issues. “Pro-government” and “old-school” Republicans are less inclined to say GOP leaders are taking the party in the right direction, while the “tea party” and “values” groups are much more satisfied.

Most Republican groups favor confrontation over cooperation and compromise, but “old-school” Republicans and “window shoppers” tend to favor negotiation with the Democrats.

Almost all “tea party” and “old-school” Republicans say people should take care of themselves and not look to government for help, a sentiment that drops sharply among “progovernment” conservatives.

On Medicare, an issue central to the presidential campaign, the Republican coalition is divided. The survey asked everyone whether they preferred changing Medicare to a premium-support program for younger workers, in which people would have the option to purchase their own health-care plans after retiring, an idea Ryan has outlined and Romney has embraced. Or, they were asked, would they prefer to keep the government health program largely as it is?

“Tea party” movement Republicans were the only one of the five GOP groups in which a majority favored the premiumsupport approach advocated

by Ryan. About 4 in 10 “oldschool” Republicans said they supported such a change. But more than 60 percent of those in each of the other groups said they opposed the idea.

“Old-school” Republicans, in the past called country-club Republicans, tend to be out of step with others in the party on a variety of social issues.

The GOP is now a collection of shifting internal coalitions.

For the next three months, they will join together in a united effort to defeat Obama, capture

the Senate and enlarge their majority in the House. But if Romney is in the White House come January, he will be faced with harnessing a party that in a variety of ways will be pulling in different directions, substantively and stylistically.

Democrat factions Obama’s election-year announcements on gay marriage and a naturalization policy for undocumented immigrants seemed to play to a Democratic base, one that is largely supportive of his moves. Democrats certainly differ from Republicans on the issues, at least broadly.

But Democrats too are divided — less starkly than Republicans, but divided still, and particularly so on gay marriage.

Fully 85 percent of those we call “urban liberals” — one of the biggest of the Democratic groups — say they feel strongly that gay marriage should be legal, but that drops to 26 percent among “God and government” Democrats, the largest group, and just 13 percent among the smallest cadre, the do-it-yourself, or “DIY,” Democrats.

Religion, social issues and the size and scope of government are the main pivots dividing the Democratic coalition, but demographic differences also contribute to the fissures.

“Urban liberals” — the most traditionally liberal of the groups — are nearly threequarters white and by far the most educated and highest income earners among Democrats. The “God and government” contingent is two-thirds nonwhite and far more apt than two of the five Republican groups to go to religious services at least once a week.

“Urban liberals” and the “agnostic left,” another group of people who seldom go to church, overwhelmingly say there should be a high degree of separation between church and state, while sizable majorities of the other two groups of Democrats say the government should take special steps to protect America’s religious heritage.

About a third of “DIY Democrats” advocate a larger federal government offering more in services, a position backed by most of those in other groups, peaking at 85 percent among “urban liberals.” “DIY Democrats” are by far the least likely of any of the four groups to support new spending at the cost of deficit reduction. But they also represent only about 1 in 8 Democrats — only about a third of the size of the “God and government” group.

Obama has been able to stitch together a unique coalition, still reliant on a nonwhite base but reaching into some segments of voters previously resistant to Democratic presidential candidates. But the near uniformity in Democrats’ intentions to support his bid for re-election belies deep disagreements that are likely to color the remainder of his presidency, whether he has five months or another four years in office.

THE PARTISAN DIVIDE

In a word ...

Independents favor more cooperation in politics

One-word reactions to the political parties and independents

By Jon Cohen and Dan Balz The Washington Post

guishable from Democrats, and three in 10 are indistinguishable from Republicans, at least when it comes to their voting patterns.

Those who are both genuinely independent and active participants in the political process constitute only a sliver of the overall electorate — around 5 percent, according to the new survey. And among that group, just one in three say they are firmly settled in their choice between Obama and Romney.

Still, even this small share of votes could prove decisive in a campaign that has been tightly fought in its initial months.

But given the fact that such voters are few in number, the two campaigns are spending more time mobilizing party loyalists than on persuading the undecided. Some of those loyalists, however, call themselves independents.

President Barack Obama and Mitt Romney are waging one of the most partisan campaigns in recent memory, energizing their bases with heated rhetoric and harsh tactics. But among political independents, some of the most prized voters in the electorate, speaking more softly about the other side may be a key to winning their support.

Independents make up about a third of all voters.

They constitute about half of those who are uncommitted in their choice for president. And they are one of the most mischaracterized groups in the electorate.

Independent voters are not a monolithic bloc. Nor are many of them truly independent in their voting patterns, according to a new study by The Washington Post and the Kaiser Family Foundation.

And they say Republican policies hurt their economic interests.

True independents For some Americans, the term “independent” is merely confirmation that they’ve tuned out of the political process. Among this bloc of “detached” independents, seven in 10 are not registered to vote, and nearly nine in 10 say they did not vote in 2008. Just 16 percent say they are “very interested” in this year’s contest.

“Washington is just a bunch of liars and thieves, and I’m just kind of sick of them,” said Scott O., who would not provide his last name for publication. He said he did not vote in 2008 and has no plans to register this year.

More of these independents favor Obama than Romney, but they lean toward the Republicans on the biggest issue of the day: On the economy, “detached” independents side with the GOP over the Democrats by a 17-point margin.

At the same time, they lean progressive on abortion and same-sex marriage.

The classic independents — whom we call “deliberators” — are not uniformly middleof-the-road in their views on issues. But they share a deep dislike for the way the political system is operating: Fully 91 percent are dissatisfied with the political system, and 75 percent trust neither Democrats nor Republicans when it comes to representing their opinions on the economy.

The Washington Post GOP and Democratic leaders are taking their parties in the wrong direction, and most see each party’s policies as hurting their families’ economic interests.

When politicians and commentators talk about Americans who hate Washington, these true independents embody that view.

“I don’t know what the truth is or what the lies are,” said Voula Manukas of Raleigh, N.C. “If I had my choice, I’d vote them all out and put a new Congress in there that’s going to work and not spend their whole time on the rhetoric.”

Overall, nearly half of them say they are moderate politically, and about a third say so about their views on social issues. On fiscal matters, almost half of them describe themselves as conservative, while close to four in 10 say they are

moderate. The rest, just one in 10, call themselves fiscal liberals.

The economic leanings of these independents make them appealing targets for the Romney campaign. A majority say they prefer holding the line on spending to avoid making the deficit larger, rather than spending more to create jobs. But on social issues, from abortion to same-sex marriage, their views are more in line with Obama’s positions.

Economic issues are dominant in the campaign, but Obama’s team has been running ads aimed at appealing to women based on Romney’s positions on social issues.

Those ads appear designed to mobilize Democratic-leaning female voters and attract the support of independent women who favor abortion rights or same-sex marriage.

“Deliberators” favor smaller government and think that government controls too much of our daily lives. And nearly six in 10 say they prefer to keep the Medicare program the way it is, rather than move to a plan favored by Romney and Ryan in which the government would give people money to help them purchase health insurance — an opinion shared by most “disguised” Democrats.

Putting all four groups together, a slim majority of independents oppose such a shift in the Medicare program, but most also give a higher priority to deficit reduction than new spending, and more than six in 10 would prefer a smaller federal government. These broad views set the challenges for Obama and Romney when it comes to appealing to anyone other than overt partisans.

pic Air was filing bankruptcy this time three years ago.

Today, the Bend kit-plane manufacturer — which has new ownership and a different name, Epic Aircraft — has 50 employees, with plans to add 30 more this year.

A Russian company that purchased Epic in March brought muchneeded capital to the Bend business, which had once pledged to employ 4,000 before lawsuits and layoffs threatened to shutter its doors for good.

As far as Epic CEO Doug King is concerned, those troubled times are ancient history. He’d rather talk about plans to get the Epic LT plane certified with the Federal Aviation Administration.

“Our aircraft sales have picked up. We bought the building that we’re in,” King said. “We’re busy, and that’s really good. And it will continue to be that way.”

Other companies in the region’s aviation industry have been less fortunate.

The sector took a body blow with Cessna’s departure from Bend in 2009.

A handful of other companies that call the Bend Municipal Airport home have weathered serious hits to their bottom lines.

Slow sales at Windward Performance, a glider manufacturer, have owner Greg Cole unsure of its future.

That has more to do with the Great Recession’s lasting affects than Cessna’s departure.

When the aviation business was booming in the mid-2000s, Windward was rolling out one of its SparrowHawk gliders a month.

It’s a much different story today.

“We haven’t sold one of those planes for, probably, it could be three-and-a-half or four years,” Cole said.

“I’ve always been pretty positive about things, but I’m not so positive now.

Things are slow. If it’s still slow in another two years, what does that mean?”

Strategy for a short sale bail

By Ann Cameron Siegal Special to The Washington Post

Ryan Brennecke / The Bulletin

Employees at Epic Aircraft assemble a wing Tuesday in the factory at Bend Municipal Airport. The company has added employees this year, but local aircraft manufacturing employment continues to lag since Cessna left Bend three years ago.

By early July, instead of celebrating their 34th wedding anniversary, Joseph and Mary Damiani were dealing with hyper stress and a headache-producing pile of paperwork. That’s about all they had to show for eight months of struggling to sell their underwater four-bedroom Colonial in Locust Grove, Va. And that’s after they agreed on a sales price with a prospective buyer.

The good news is that the potential purchaser has been extraordinarily patient. “This house exceeded my expectations,” said Tom Depew, 31, who is single and lives in McLean, Va. “Nothing is pushing me against the wall, so I can wait it out.”

Creating hardware prototypes gets easier • Silicon Valley, once software central, is hub of innovative gadgets

By Nick Bilton and John Markoff New York Times News Service

PALO ALTO, Calif. — In recent years, Silicon Valley seems to have forgotten about silicon. It’s been about dotcoms, Web advertising, social networking and apps for smartphones.

But there are signs here that hardware is becoming the new software.

It is an expansion of a trend that began a few years ago with the Flip videophone, a sleeper hit, and has recently accelerated with Nest, the smart thermostat; Lytro, a camera that refocuses a photo after it

is taken; and the Pebble smartwatch, a wristwatch that can interact with a smartphone.

Although the hardware is not manufactured in Silicon Valley, it is being conceived, designed, prototyped and financed here, usually by small startups.

What has changed? Each of those steps is speeding up, which cuts the costs and lowers the risks of developing new things.

It’s not that software is any less important in Silicon Valley.

One reason for the rise of hardware is that it is now so tightly integrated with software. Apple has taught a generation of product designers that an electronic device isn’t much without specially designed software that makes it a joy to use.

Short sale Continued from G1 The holdout: the Damianis’ two lenders, which the couple says have been putting them through a grinder as they seek a short sale that would allow Depew to buy the property for $100,000 less than what they owe on it. The Damianis are hoping the lenders will view the deal as beneficial to their institutions by helping the couple avoid joining the many underwater owners who have walked away from their properties. “Get ready to bare your soul,� Joseph Damiani said as a warning to other underwater sellers considering short sales.

Without question, experts say, short sales are the most complicated real estate transactions a homeowner can face — and the most prone to failure. The failure rate for short sales locally is 49.4 percent, compared with 17.9 percent for foreclosures and 13.1 percent for traditional sales.

By going through a short sale, though, sellers can avoid having to come up with thousands of dollars at the closing to make up the difference between what they owe the lender and what a buyer would be willing to pay.

Central to being approved for a short sale is the seller’s “hardship statement� filed with the lender proving an inability to repay the loan. The loss of a job, death of the family breadwinner, military deployment, divorce, job relocation or illness and its resulting medical bills would be among legitimate reasons.

The price negotiations Once that hurdle is crossed and permission is given to proceed with the short sale, an intricate web of negotiation begins. The seller must find a buyer, agree on a price, then wait and wait some more for the lender, which can either accept the buyer’s offer, reject it or counter it. The process can be even more cumbersome when more than one lender is involved.

When a job transfer brought the Damianis to Virginia from North Carolina seven years ago, they bought a four-bedroom, two-bathroom Colonial for $389,000. Built in 2005, the house, located in Lake of the Woods — a water-oriented community 17 miles west of Fredericksburg — is in pristine condition and one block from the community’s golf course.

Unfortunately, like many buyers then, they purchased near the height of the market.

Joseph Damiani’s job transfer to Atlanta three years ago prompted the couple’s need to sell. By the end of 2011, the home was listed for $289,000.

When traditional marketing efforts failed, the Damianis said they thought the short sale process would help head

off looming financial difficulties so they could avoid falling behind on their mortgage payments. “We were trying to do the right thing,� he said.

They qualified for a jobtransfer hardship with their first trust lender. But the second trust lender would not talk to them until their payments were in arrears for at least two months, a path that would potentially ruin their stellar credit rating. “Most lenders require you to be delinquent before they will start the short sale process,� said Sara Rodriguez, a lawyer who negotiates short sale transactions between lenders and sellers.

Brian Gormley, the founder of Cornerstone Properties, said: “It’s difficult for banks to know who is being sincere� with their hardship statements. “Honest people are hurt by those gaming the system.�

That means that those being responsible, by flagging a potential problem a few months before a projected default, get lumped in with the “strategic default� crowd — those who can afford to make payments but walk away because their homes are underwater.

When the Damianis received an offer of $285,000 from Depew in October 2011, they didn’t know their short sale journey was just beginning.

Who owns the loan?

Once upon a time, you originated a mortgage with your local bank. That bank provided the money for your loan as the investor. It also was the servicer — collecting your payments and paying your insurance and taxes out of escrow.

It rarely works that way anymore. The originator, investor and servicer are often different entities. Mortgages are bundled and sold multiple times. Servicers (where you send your payments) may have hundreds of investors. “People don’t realize that while you can be dealing with Bank of America or Wells Fargo to negotiate the short sale, they might only be the servicer and not the owner of the loan,� Rodriguez said. “The owner of the loan — the investor — is the one that makes the ultimate decision.�

That explains why various short sales with one bank can have different outcomes. She noted that most lenders don’t provide their guidelines in writing, which is why it’s so frustrating. “There is no common sense in the short sale process,� she said. “Mortgage insurance, homeowner associations or a second lien make the process more difficult,� Gormley said, because each has additional approval rights.

The Damianis’ loans have been sold several times to investors the couple has not chosen. Their first trust is held

“Most lenders require you to be delinquent before they will start the short-sale process.� — Sara Rodriguez, a lawyer who negotiates short-sale transactions between lenders and sellers

by an investor rated “F� by the Better Business Bureau. The second trust has no BBB accreditation. Each has its own requirements and time lines.

The lack of communication and coordination between the two has led to major delays and the need to resubmit paperwork.

Morgan Knull, a real estate agent with Re/Max Gateway, said, “Have a conversation with your lender� before trying the short sale route. It’s often in the bank’s interest to help homeowners stay in their homes. Owners should make sure they’ve exhausted all options for loan-modification programs, he said.

The cost A short sale is not the solution to all of homeowners’ economic problems. For example, the loss that a lender absorbs — the deficiency — is not always forgiven.

Mary Ann Weaver, the negotiator now working with the Damianis, noted that lenders sometimes require an unsecured promissory note on a lesser amount, spread out 15 years or longer. Some require a cash payment toward the deficiency. Some retain the right to pursue the deficiency in the future.

And, unlike with foreclosures, the short sale seller is responsible for all maintenance and expenses on the property until it’s sold. Other expenses, such as delinquent homeowner-association fees, tax liens, title searches and closing costs may not be covered by a lender, but must be cleared before closing.

Also, short sales may have tax consequences. Although the Mortgage Debt Relief Act of 2007 generally does not count the debt forgiven on a primary residence as income for the seller, this program is slated to expire Dec. 31.

For homeowners, trying to keep up with all the paperwork and constant follow-up required and ensuring that often recalcitrant lenders are doing their part can be a fulltime job. That’s why many real estate agents are turning to short sale negotiators — people who are well-versed in the terminology, laws and quirks of the process. “Short sales get into a lot of lawyerly language and fiduciary duties above and beyond the expertise of the average real estate agent,� said Mary Wharton, an agent with Long and Foster. “A specialist can help structure a contract that will be most acceptable to a particular lender.�

Efficient, frequent communication between your agent

and the lending institution or institutions is vital in the short sale process. Missing documents or looming deadlines, if not addressed quickly, can halt — and possibly derail — all proceedings.

To find the best agent for your circumstances, Gormley, of Cornerstone Properties, suggests interviewing several and asking pointed questions, such as: How much experience do you have with my bank? How many short sales have you done?

(Short sale specialists can be found at agentlocator .bankofamerica.com. Many of these agents work with short sales beyond those handled by Bank of America.)

Keep in mind that real estate agents and negotiators do not make money from short sales, no matter how long the negotiations have been going on, until the deal closes. Their commissions are usually part of the negotiated price the lender approves.

The snags Short sales can hit a snag or come undone at any turn.

Whether you are a buyer or a seller, prepare to dig deep into your well of patience.

“Maybe one out of 25 short sales gets approved in two weeks,� said Rodriguez. Others can take three months, six months or longer.

One hang-up may revolve around the appraisal. The appraised value needs to be commensurate with what the buyer offers to pay, Gormley said. But sometimes a lender uses a “broker price opinion� (BPO) — which may be a “desk appraisal� by a real estate agent who hasn’t visited the property. The resulting “market value� defined could be way out of kilter with the current economic climate or the condition of the property.

Rodriguez said she was recently issued one BPO based on property values two years ago. “They’re not consistent in placing value,� she said.

Moreover, the sellers have to worry about the buyer potentially getting cold feet or being drawn away by a better offer, forcing them to restart the process.

Depew, the prospective buyer, was not required to put up any earnest money and had a clause inserted in his contract stating that after 45 days, he needed to give only three days’ notice to walk away without penalty. “Don’t put forth any of your own money until all time limits have been met,� said Depew, who suggests that buyers continue to look at other properties while waiting. “Bail if something else comes along.�

Why not just foreclose?

So why shouldn’t you save the headaches and go the foreclosure route instead?

The applause for short sales over foreclosures comes from three groups: Your neighbors favor short sales because they seem to have a less negative impact on the community.

Lenders are glad someone else has to maintain and sell the property. And sellers’ credit ratings take less of a hit.

If the deficiency is waived, the credit report will say something like, “loan paid off for less than owed.� It’s still a hit, but not as bad as a foreclosure.

Short sales are one of those “heartbreak things� for the seller, said Wharton, the Long and Foster agent, but for a buyer, “if you can put up with the stress, sometimes you can get a very good deal.�

On Aug. 7, the Damianis learned that their short sale journey was finally over. The sale and Depew’s VA loan were approved, the inspection is done and settlement is scheduled for early September.

Depew is delighted. “So the patience and perseverance paid off in the end after all,� he said. “Absolutely perfect and I couldn’t ask for a better home.�

SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 2012 • THE BULLETIN

Lottery Continued from G1 The use of Oregon lottery funds earmarked for economic develop by the state’s 36 counties has been coming under increased scrutiny, with one state lawmaker saying that using the funds on social programs hurts economic growth in the state.

But local leaders said Central Oregon nonprofits that provide food and shelter for at-risk families, help abused children in the legal system and maintain Central Oregon rivers could lose access to thousands of dollars in needed grants under such a proposal.

State Rep. Patrick Sheehan, R-Clackamas, wants a hearing and possible legislation to prevent those funds from being funneled to social welfare programs, after he found numerous counties using lottery funds on programs that don’t create any jobs.

Sheehan also co-sponsored House Bill 3188 in the 2011 legislative session. The bill requires each county to file a report describing how it spent the state lottery funds.

Oregon counties receive 2.5 percent of all video lottery proceeds every two years, with each county receiving a set amount and the rest allotted based on how much is spent on video lottery games in each county.

Those funds have been given to counties since 1984.

State law gives no explanation on how that money is to be spent, other than saying it should be used “for economic development activities,” according to Oregon Revised Statutes..

Deschutes County received 510,732 in the 2009-11 biennium.

Of that, $245,000 was given “to local nonprofits for providing services in specific areas of need that include providing emergency food, clothing and shelter, protecting abused or neglected individuals, health and mental health treatment for those lacking resources or juvenile crime prevention programs,” according to the Association of Oregon Counties report.

Few are buying Cole is a victim of economic forces he can’t control.

National spending on durable goods — big ticket items like planes, cars and furniture, designed to last three years or longer — have risen slightly in recent months, according to U.S. Commerce Department data.

But that has just partly corrected the 20 percent hit to durable goods sales between December 2008 and July 2009, prior Commerce Department reports show.

With a $116,000 price tag, the SparrowHawk is certainly big-ticket. Occasional sales of other models, like the DuckHawk and GosHawk, have kept Windward in business as SparrowHawk sales have lagged.

Companies like Windward and X-Air LS, which operates out of the Bend Airport, have lost sales as customers postpone their orders.

It’s been several years since one of X-Air’s light sport aircraft sold, X-Air co-director Michael Lemaire wrote in an email.

“Commercially, we cannot say we’ve been doing well since we haven’t been selling anything,” said Lemaire, who also owns Bend-based Stratos Aircraft, which has been developing a very light personal jet. “We hope that will soon change, with the (economic) crisis hopefully coming to an end.”

It’s not just the plane builders that are struggling.

Companies like Snowline Manufacturing stake their livelihoods on the health of Bend’s aviation industry.

The company spent much of its history welding plane wings and bodies, installing heating and ventilation systems, as well as pressurization controllers and electric wiring.

Seventy percent of Snowline’s business was with Cessna, owner Mike Snow said.

When Cessna left, Snow had to lay off about three-quarters of his workforce. Once employing 30, he’s down to about

Lottery’s impact on Central Oregon The state of Oregon distributes 2.5 percent of all video lottery funds to counties for economic development programs. A state lawmaker has taken issue with counties use of the funds for social programs. Following is a list of agencies Central Oregon counties granted lottery funds to in the two-year period that ended in June 2011 and the broad categories in which the funds were used.

DESCHUTES COUNTY Amount of lottery money received: $510,732 • Community Grant Program, $245,732, provides emergency food, clothing or shelter; protecting abused or neglected individuals; health and mental health treatment for the poor, or juvenile crime prevention programs.

• Discretionary Grant Program, $60,000, provides grants for nonprofits to raise funds for emergency equipment supporting fundraising efforts and to enable matching funds. Grants range from $300 to $5,000, reviewed and awarded on a monthly basis by the Deschutes County Commissioners. Each commissioner is allocated $20,000 per year to dispense. There were 45 recipients in 2009-11.

• Service Partner Grant Program, $205,000, funds specific services at nonprofits that perform services dictated by law.

Funds cover services Deschutes County would otherwise be required to provide. The county identified 11 organizations in 200911. The County provides $119,350 to this fund in addition to lottery money. Organizations include: Economic Development for Central Oregon; Central Oregon Visitors Association; Sunriver Area Chamber of Commerce; Central Oregon Council on Aging; Central Oregon Intergovernmental Council; Court Appointed Special Advocates; Humane Society of Central Oregon; Upper Deschutes Watershed Council.

alone. Multnomah County funded a variety of social programs with its share of money, nearly $3.5 million, according to the report, produced by the association of counties.

Those programs, while important, don’t do enough to directly benefit the local economy, so funds set for that purpose shouldn’t be spent on them, Sheehan said.

“So much (of the lottery funds across the state) are being spent on things that really aren’t economic development, and it’s really difficult to defend that,” Sheehan said. The funds “have sort of become a slush fund for counties to plug holes and gaps in their budgets. That’s just not what the money is for.”

County commissioners across Central Oregon said

they see the need for lottery funds to go directly toward economic development — especially in counties where unemployment has held in double digits since October 2008.

But their opinions differ slightly as to whether their use of funds are job creation material, or more of a stopgap measure to prop up programs short on money.

The $245,000 for emergency and welfare programs are services Deschutes County is required by law to support, Commissioner Tammy Baney said. The need is even greater amid the tough economic climate that has seen more Deschutes County residents fall beneath federal poverty lines, she said.

About 27 percent of Des-

seven today.

“It’s obviously a huge drop from where we were,” he said.

“Cessna pulled everything back with the downturn in the economy.”

Focused almost exclusively on plane parts for much of the company’s existence, he’s branched out in recent years, making construction equipment and bike parts.

A look at state employment figures shows how far employment levels for plane and other vehicle manufacturing has dropped in Deschutes County.

In 2006, the county had a monthly average of 1,178 transportation manufacturing jobs — building parts for planes, boats, cars and trains, according to Oregon Employment Department data.

The recession gutted jobs in those industries. Just 183 workers were employed in the same fields in 2010, an 84 percent drop in just four years.

There are still big players in the local market, like Epic, Redmond-based kit-plane maker Lancair, Leading Edge Aviation, which offers helicopter flight training, avionics installation and other services, and high-altitude oxygen supply company Mountain High Equipment and Supply.

But the decline in aviation jobs isn’t lost on the region’s economic development advocates.

“I look at it as one of our biggest losses in this recession,” said Roger Lee, executive director of Economic Development for Central Oregon.

“There’s just less demand. We had so much of the industry, not just here but across the country, go away.”

Bend airport, U.S. Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., touted the region as an ideal location for such a site, one that could create jobs and income for local residents.

The push to bring an unmanned vehicle industry to Bend seems to be gaining momentum, although other areas of the state also want to create hubs for UAV-related businesses.

Central Oregon Community College has been in talks for a year about expanding its aviation program to include certification for unmanned vehicle operation.

COCC has been talking with EDCO about its role in maintaining the region’s status as an aviation hub, said Karin Hilgersom, vice president for instruction at the school.

EDCO’s executive director said the economic impact to the area could be huge, if Central Oregon business and education leaders work together to build a talent pool for the design and flight of these unmanned vehicles.

“When you start to think about what is being flown today, and what might be out there in 10 or 15 years, how many things will be flown with unmanned aircraft?” Lee said, adding that unmanned vehicles could be used in firefighting and search and rescue, as well as for the military.

“It’s definitely something we need to spend some time and effort on — on diversifying our aerospace industry,” he said.

But just how much job creation can come here from a fledgling unmanned industry isn’t known. At this point, conversations are centered more on what could be.

Snow of Snowline Manufacturing is thinking about now.

He doesn’t have much choice but to keep his doors open and hope an improving economy brings more orders.

“We’re waiting things out,” Snow said. “I’ve been in this business for more than 40 years. We’ve ridden lots of ups and downs. We’ll be here when manufacturing comes back.”

Hoping for UAVs While Bend’s aviation companies are waiting for orders to pick up, local and state officials are targeting new opportunities.

The Federal Aviation Administration is expected in December to pick six locations across the country as launch sites to test unmanned aerial vehicles, the type used increasingly in recent years by the U.S. Department of Defense in military operations.

chutes County households bring in less than $25,000 a year, according to U.S. Census data.

That makes social programs like food and shelter assistance a means of helping county residents get back on their feet, Baney said.

“I think it comes down to one’s definition of what it means to create economic development,” she said. “For us it would be significant to our nonprofit network if these dollars went away. But I do think it’s important to look county by county and see how these dollars are being spent.

I would welcome anyone to look at how we’re spending our share.”

Several of the programs Deschutes County spent lot-

tery funds on likely had little to do with economic development, Commissioner Tony DeBone said.

He’s brought the issue up several times in commissioner’s meetings. Money from the lottery fund can’t be spent without approval from two of the three commissioners.

But DeBone acknowledged that the economic climate left a big hole in the county’s support network for struggling families.

“I do kind of have a hard time with the concept of (economic development) funds for emergency food and shelter,” DeBone said. “But that’s where the need was this year.

Still, I don’t think we want our philosophy to be promoting free food. We want to

help people get jobs, and start careers.”

Crook County received about $115,000 in lottery funds, and used them on services ranging from upkeep at the county fairgrounds, to bolstering services at Crook County Kids Club, an afterschool and non-school-day childrens’ community center that operates out of Cecil Sly Elementary School in Prineville.

In choosing to fund Kids Club, Crook County administrators did debate whether that met the state’s requirement for economic development, Commissioner Ken Fahlgren said.

But the county did see funding for the center as filling a need.

“These are places we feel support families. Those families need the support for their children, and better places for them to be taken care of while (parents) go to work,” Fahlgren said. “As (economic) times get better, programs like that will have ways to raise funds. But dollars are tight right now, so we saw that as a way to support the local economy.”

All of the programs that Deschutes County granted funds to impact the economy to varying degrees, Commissioner Alan Unger said.

Some of them, like the Upper Deschutes Watershed Council, have a less apparent impact than Economic Development for Central Oregon or county business loan programs.

But the share of lottery funds for the Watershed Council, about $20,000, is small compared with EDCO’s share.

The money for the watershed council, Court Appointed Special Advocates and other social programs helps them maintain workforce levels and fund their own efforts.

“We do focus on economic development” with the lottery funds, Unger said.

“But we also see the need to strengthen our community partners, like CASA, and those kinds of things that help families.”

SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 2012 • THE BULLETIN

Hardware Continued from G1 Instead, any designer now has the ability to quickly experiment with new product designs using low-cost 3-D printers. These printers can churn out objects to make prototypes quickly — a fork, wall hooks, mugs, a luggage clasp — by printing thousands of layers of wafer-thin slices of plastics, ceramics or other materials. Products can be made quickly in contract assembly plants overseas, usually in China.

All of this has given designers and engineers a fast-forward button advancing this technological flip-flop.

“Something that once took three months to make now takes less than a month,” explained Andre Yousefi, cofounder of Lime Lab, a product development firm based in San Francisco that works with startups to create hardware products.

“With 3-D printers, you can now create almost disposable prototypes,” he said. “You queue it up at night, pick it up in the morning and can throw it away by 11 a.m.”

The rapidly falling cost of building computer-based gadgets has touched off a wave of innovation that is starting to eclipse the software-driven world that came to dominate the Valley in the dot-com boom of the late 1990s.

“If we look hard over the last 10 or 15 years, people don’t realize how different the world is now compared to 1996,” said Sean O’Sullivan, a venture capitalist who splits his time between the United States, Ireland and China. “Products like the iPhone have driven down the cost of components.

You can now easily make connected devices that transform lives in the way we have only been able to do with software before.”

Hand-over-fist ideas To prove his point, O’Sullivan recently took teams from nine small startup companies to Shenzhen, China, for 111 days in which each group

developed and began manufacturing new products. He calls his investment firm, based in San Francisco, Haxlr8r (pronounced hak-CEL-erator), and in June the first group of fast-to-market hardware products was unveiled. The companies included Shaka, which makes a simple device for measuring wind for sailboard and kite surfers, and Kindara, maker of an iPhone accessory to help women determine when they are ovulating. (The system automatically generates a text message to the husband at the appropriate time.)

There is also Bilibot, a project to build an inexpensive opensource robot.

The shift away from the Valley’s obsession with dotcom services and Web-based social networks is a return to the region’s roots. The Valley began as a center for electronics hardware design in the late 1930s, when Bill Hewlett and David Packard built an audio oscillator that Walt Disney used in the production of the movie “Fantasia.” At the start of the 1970s, the label Silicon Valley was coined because of the proliferation of semiconductor companies. In the mid1970s, a group of computer hardware hobbyists started the Homebrew Computer Club here, which gave rise to several dozen startups, including Apple Computer.

Today, some of the most successful hardware startups

in Silicon Valley have been formed from the diaspora of former Apple employees who want to try their hand at companies that pair hardware and software — which is an integral part of Apple’s DNA. Tony Fadell, a former Apple executive who led the design teams on the iPod and iPhone, recently started a company called Nest, which makes a beautifully designed smart thermometer for the home. It is one of the hit home electronics products of the year. Hugo Fiennes, the Apple hardware manager for the first four iPhones, started a company called Electric Imp, which plans to connect everyday objects, like wall outlets and household appliances, to the Internet.

And Andy Rubin, who now heads Google’s Android phone business, worked as an Apple engineer before leaving to help create a series of startups, the most recent of which was acquired by Google in 2005.

The Android software, tightly integrated into smartphones, has come to rival that of Apple’s iPhone.

Hosain Rahman, CEO of Jawbone, a hardware startup that makes slick Bluetooth speaker systems and headsets, said Apple’s influence on design set a standard for who could enter the hardware startup world.

“The bar for great hardware experiences has been

set so high by our friends in Cupertino,” he said, referring to Apple’s home. “They’ve raised the overall goodness of hardware.

“You can come up with a new concept or idea and you can really efficiently figure out if it’s a viable product,” Rahman said. “Now you can test a lot of ideas for a lot less capital and intensity.”

But, he warned, “the scaling and supply chain, marketing and distribution is still quite hard.”

Yet even distribution has been simplified by technology. Online marketplaces like Etsy, Amazon and Google’s Marketplace allow people to set up shop on any street corner of the Web and begin hawking their latest hardware ideas.

Getting funding Because of the excitement around hardware, startups in New York and Silicon Valley are now vying for venture capital investments. Electric Imp recently closed an $8 million financing round from big-name venture firms.

LittleBits, a New York company, just signed a deal for $3.65 million in financing to start mass-producing its tiny tech toys. Yousefi’s company, Lime Lab, was acquired this year by PCH International, headquartered in Cork, Ireland. PCH is a manufacturer that works with startups and

technology companies in Silicon Valley to build hardware products that just a decade ago would have cost millions of dollars and years to realize.

Liam Casey, founder and chief executive of PCH International, said the ease of making hardware prototypes had contributed to the rise of a new genre of financing with Kickstarter, a website that has raised impressive sums for a number of hardware startups.

Entrepreneurs pitch their idea on the site and ask for donations — often promising the product, or at least a promotional T-shirt, for the cash.

“The money has always been the barrier for hardware,” Casey said, “and by showing the amount of interest from consumers, startups can now create a space that makes VCs feel comfortable investing in their hardware project.”

Ouya, an open-source game console for the television built using Google Android, just raised more than $8 million through Kickstarter. Pebble, the smartwatch that connects to iPhone and Android smartphones, raised more than $10 million after asking for just $100,000.

The collapsing cost of hardware can be seen in its revival of a hobbyist ethos in the socalled Maker subculture. That ethos is thriving on the easy availability of low-cost computers and sensors.

One of the best examples of

that movement is a full-blown $25 computer system the size of a credit card. Designed by a small team led by Eben Upton, a chip designer at Broadcom, the computer is known as Raspberry Pi, and the Valley’s hobbyists and startup fans have seized on it as a breakthrough in innovation. So far, 100,000 computers have been sold, and the Raspberry Pi Foundation is making 4,000 daily — enough to reach almost 1.5 million dreamers in a year.

When Raspberry Pi is almost as cheap as a raspberry pie, the impact on future hardware development will be profound.

“People are using this as a catalyst to get new designs to the market more quickly,” said Kevin Yapp, chief of marketing and strategy for Element 14, an international online community for engineers backing the project.

Stewart Brand said that information like software “wants to be free,” said O’Sullivan, the venture capitalist.

“Now hardware is almost as cheap as software.”

Break Continued from G1 The ban threw me into a tailspin. I lingered by the locker where I had stashed my phone, wondering what messages, photos and updates I might already be missing.

After walking to the side of the pool and reluctantly stretching out on a towel by the water, my hands ached for my phone. I longed to upload details and pictures of my leisurely afternoon, and to skim through my various social networks to see how other friends were spending the weekend.

Mostly, however, I wanted to make sure that there wasn’t some barbecue or summer music festival that we should be heading to instead.

Eventually, the anxiety passed. I started to see my lack of a digital connection as a reprieve. Lounging in the sun and chatting with a friend without the intrusion of texts and alerts into our lives felt positively luxurious. That night, I even switched off my phone while mingling at a house party, content to be in one place for the evening and not distracted by any indecision about whether another party posted online looked better.

My revelation — relearning the beauty of living in the mo-

ment, devoid of any digital link — may seem silly to people who are less attached to their devices. But for many people, smartphones and social networks have become lifelines — appendages that they are rarely without. As such, they can sway our moods, decisions and feelings.

One side effect of living an always-on digital life is the tension, along with the thrill, that can arise from being able to peep into people’s worlds at any moment and comparing their lives with yours. This tension may be inevitable at times, but it’s not inescapable.

It’s possible to move beyond the angst that social media can provoke — and to be glad that we’ve done so.

JOMO vs. FOMO Anil Dash, a blogger and partner at Activate, a media and technology consulting firm, called this phenomenon the “Joy of Missing Out,” or JOMO, in a recent blog post.

“There can be, and should be, a blissful, serene enjoyment in knowing, and celebrating, that there are folks out there having the time of their life at something that you might have loved to, but are simply skipping,” he wrote.

JOMO is the counterpoint to FOMO, or the “fear of miss-

ing out,” a term popularized last year by Caterina Fake, an entrepreneur and one of the founders of Flickr, the photosharing website.

“Social media has made us even more aware of the things we are missing out on,” she wrote in a blog post. “You’re home alone, but watching your friends’ status updates tell of a great party happening somewhere.”

It may be that many people are in a kind of adolescence with social media and technology, still adjusting to the role that their new devices play in their lives. One day, the relationship may be less fraught.

The influence that technology can wield over our lives may lessen with time — as we grow accustomed to our devices and as the people who use them mature. In Dash’s case, the birth of his son, Malcolm, an adorable toddler who knows how to moonwalk, curbed his appetite for a hyperactive social life.

Joshua Gross, a developer living in Brooklyn, says he thinks that as a modern society, we are “overcommunicated.” There is simply too much information flowing across our devices at any moment, he said in a blog post.

“There’s no rhythm to the way we get information right now,” he said. “You never

know when you’re going to get a buzz. If we develop a rhythm to the way we get information, we’ll know what we’re getting and when.”

Gross is among those working on solutions to the problem by creating services — including an application allowing users to save content from around the Web — that help stanch the flow of data that is streaming in at any moment.

Heavy users of social media can also adopt coping mechanisms — similar to training oneself to eat healthily — said Wilhelm Hofmann, an assistant professor who studies behavioral science at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business. “It’s a problem of self-control,” he said.

For those of us who don’t have a cute tot to help distract us from the siren call of social media, as Dash does, Hofmann recommends setting up a kind of screen diet, building in a period each day to go screenless, either by going for a run and leaving your phone at home, or by stashing it in a drawer during dinner or while hanging out with friends.

“Ask yourself: How important is this, really? How happy does it actually make you?” he said. “Harness that feeling of pride when you do resist and stick to it.”

Affordable, but not cheap • The Chevrolet Spark is an example of the old adage, ‘Good things come in small packages’

By Brad Bergholdt McClatchy-Tribune News Service

How useful are the unQ : der-$100 scanners you see at the auto supply store?

By Warren Brown Special to The Washington Post

NEW YORK — It was a tough day in the city. The George Washington Bridge was a congestive horror show thanks to a noontime construction project and a motorcycle accident.

The city’s streets were equally bollixed in response to a presidential motorcade winding through town.

I was grateful for the car I was driving, R E V IE W the 2013 Chevrolet Spark 2LT mini-hatchback, which has finally been brought to the United States

by General Motors.

The front-wheel-drive Spark has been a mainstay of urban motorists worldwide for five years now. Previously sold as the Matiz, it is a product of GM-Daewoo in South Korea.

At this writing, some 600,000 Spark/Matiz models have been sold globally — the Philippines, Europe, South America.

The car is being brought to the United States in the wake of the demise of another GM-Daewoo automobile, the largely unheralded Chevrolet Aveo.

But here’s betting that the Spark will be a success.

Here’s why: “Downsizing” is no longer a dirty word in America. For many of us, it is a matter of necessity, especially among young people still struggling to find a safe place in a wobbly national economy.

The Spark is affordable, starting at $12,245 for the base model and rising to $13,745 for the Spark 1LT with Bluetooth connectivity

They make it sound like you can fix anything with them.

— Gene Hammond The tools Gene is referring to are OBD-II scan tools and code readers.

A scan tool connects to the vehicle’s data link connector and allows a look at information received and provided by the engine control computer. A code reader displays only alphanumeric diagnostic trouble codes and possibly a code description for engine or emission problems.

Cars built since 1996 (1997 for light trucks) are required to communicate in a standardized format for emission-related information, but not other vehicle systems.

The OBD-II data list is very helpful but brief compared to the much more comprehensive list of engine and vehicle parameters available on a professional-grade scan tool.

An inexpensive OBD-II scanner is a great tool for determining the cause of an illuminated check engine light but has limitations when it comes to fixing the problem.

After obtaining a trouble code, one typically goes to the manufacturer’s flow chart for that code, using the scan tool and in many cases a digital multimeter or other diagnostic tools to track down the specific fault.

If the scan tool is capable of displaying a wide range of sensor readings, or can command component functions, it can reduce the time spent with the other tools.

I think an OBD-II scanner is an excellent addition to a do-it-yourselfer toolbox. The ability to quickly, inexpensively determine the general

GM via The Washington Post

The 2013 Chevrolet Spark, which has been a mainstay of urban motorists worldwide for five years, has finally been brought to the United States.

2013 Chevrolet Spark Base price: $12,245 to $15,045 As tested: $15,045 Type: Front-engine, frontwheel-drive mini-car with four side doors and a rear hatch Engine: 16-valve, 1.2-liter in-line four-cylinder engine with variable valve timing (85 horsepower, 82 footpounds of torque) linked to a standard five-speed manual transmission. A five-speed automatic is optional.

Mileage: 22 mpg city, 38 mpg highway

or $15,045 for the top-of-theline Spark 2LT. Affordable, in this case, does not mean cheaply assembled, poorly designed or unsafe.

The Spark — 14 inches shorter than the subcompact Chevrolet Sonic and nearly four inches shorter than the Fiat 500 — is a well-constructed piece, tiny on the outside but big enough to accommodate four adults who can enter the car through its

four side doors.

There are 10 air bags, including front-passenger knee bolsters, to enhance the chances of escaping a crash with minor injuries.

And in the event that an accident occurs, the Spark comes with a standard sixmonth subscription to GM’s OnStar emergency communications system to help get rescue personnel to you quickly.

You’ll have to buy, or have access to, an iPhone with this car. At least, after driving it for a while, you’ll probably want an iPhone. The Spark’s infotainment and operational systems, including door locks, music and navigation, are all designed to be integrated with and operated through your iPhone.

Here’s hoping that GM will see the common sense of that design, especially for navigation, and start putting it in all the company’s cars and trucks. There is nothing more disconcerting than climbing behind the wheel of an expensive automobile that has a fixed onboard navigation system that is already obsolete. That won’t happen with iPhone navigation systems, which are constantly being updated.

Indian automaker finds success with British brands

By Vikas Bajaj New York Times News Service

MUMBAI, India — This summer, Jaguar Land Rover cranked up production to 24 hours at its plant near Liverpool, England, adding 1,000 jobs to help meet demand for its hot-selling and acclaimed Range Rover Evoque. Now, the company is readying the release of its much-anticipated Jaguar F-Type roadster.

Four years after being bought by an Indian company, the well-known but somewhat faded British brands are regaining some of their lost luster, racking up big sales from Shanghai to London.

The success has stunned analysts and investors, many of whom had said that Tata Motors, the Indian auto company, was making an expensive mistake when it acquired Jaguar Land Rover from Ford Motor for $2.3 billion in June 2008. At the time, Ford was raising money to ensure its own survival, and it sold the brands for several billion dollars less than it had paid to acquire them years earlier.

Analysts say Tata has done what few companies from emerging markets have been able to do — turn around and successfully run a troubled Western company.

Tata Motors appears to have succeeded in large part because it did not seek to run Jaguar Land Rover from Tata headquarters here. Instead, it has left day-to-day management in the hands of executives in England. It also benefited from projects started under Ford ownership, including the Evoque, which has won fans, including the exacting hosts of the BBC show “Top Gear” and

the Chinese nouveau riche.

In its last fiscal year, which ended in March, Jaguar Land Rover posted a 27 percent jump in retail sales, to 306,000 vehicles, and became the primary driver of growth and profit for Tata Motors. The Indian car and truck business of Tata has stagnated in the same time because of a slowing domestic economy and a weak product lineup that includes about a dozen passenger cars.

Analysts said that barring a global economic recession, they expected Jaguar Land Rover to continue to do well because it was about to release several new models, including a redesigned version of its flagship Range Rover.

“I think people were a bit skeptical and snobbish and maybe had some old colonial hangover,” Tim Urquhart, a senior analyst at IHS Automotive in London, said about the initial doubts about the acquisition. But he added, “If you look at Land Rover and Jaguar now, they probably have the strongest product line in their

recent history if not ever.”

Tata’s takeover of Jaguar Land Rover did not always look promising. The financial crisis hit soon after the deal closed, and demand for luxury cars tumbled in Europe and North America — its two biggest markets. Struggling with a $3 billion debt it took on to pay for the deal, Tata Motors was forced to put more money into the company after it failed to secure financial aid from the British government.

Analysts and competitors credit the turnaround to Tata’s financial reserves, which helped it weather tough times, and its wisdom in granting autonomy to managers in England.

“The acquisition has worked because the investment has been carefully targeted and effective,” Phil Popham, global operations director for Jaguar Land Rover, said in a written response to questions. “Our growth is supported by a disciplined financial plan involving tight cost controls and targeted investments.”

I have left driving impressions for last this week for the simple reason that you don’t buy a Spark to drive fast. You get it to maneuver through crowded city streetss — and stay away from gasoline pumps.

Let’s be real. The Spark, as presented here in 2LT format, has a 1.2-liter in-line four-cylinder engine that produces 85 horsepower and 82 footpounds of torque.

It is not the least bit speedy.

It is agile.

The Spark is a narrow, lightweight car (2,269 pounds). It can scoot through the most congested traffic, quickly occupying spaces ignored by or unusable for larger vehicles. It is fast enough to get out of its own way and avoid other calamities in an urban setting.

On a highway, such as the Palisades Parkway heading north toward my oldest daughter’s home in Cornwall, N.Y., the Spark is a right-lane car. Keep it out of the left lane, which is meant for faster and passing vehicles.

Before revving it up to highway speeds, select some nice music played at reasonably high volume. You’ll need it. The little car is a virtual noise box at 70 mph.

cause of a “check engine” light can provide peace of mind and allow budgeting of time and money for needed repairs. A cylinder misfire code needs to be fixed right away, before it torches the catalytic converter, while an EVAP leakage code could be tolerated until the end of the month, or sometimes fixed with a firm twist of the gas cap.

Other useful features of an inexpensive scan tool are code-erasing and checking to see if emissions monitors are ready for a smog test.

One should resist the temptation to throw parts at the car based only on the existence of a certain trouble code. The actual cause may lie elsewhere in that circuit.

Readers to the rescue Alan and Dale provided some great feedback on a recent column about the tire pressure monitoring system, or TPMS. Both said to not forget the spare tire as a possible cause of a troublesome TPMS warning light. I didn’t mention this because Bob’s Toyota employed an indirect system — no tire sensors — but it’s certainly helpful information for vehicle owners that do have sensors in all five wheels.

Richard, an ASE-certified master technician, offered help with the Cadillac air conditioning problem, saying that a fan/cooling problem could be the cause of poor low-speed air conditioning performance. This is absolutely true. At low speed, there isn’t enough air passing through the evaporator to transfer heat from the system without help from the fan or fans.

ou hear him before you see him. after a hearty hello to the men

and women working on the ground floor of the White House, President Barack Obama bounds into the Map Room with a warm smile and an open hand. Soon the president’s eyes fall on a shimmering but empty silver tea set that has been placed on the coffee table by photographer Ben Baker. “Tea? What about chips and salsa?”

With the tea service sent to the sidelines, the president settles down next to his wife, Michelle, whose gift for easy elegance is reinforced by her Tracey Ross top and J. Crew skirt. On this day before Gov. Mitt Romney would announce Rep. Paul Ryan as his running mate, the first couple alternately kid and cuddle for pictures. But befitting a room where decisions about World War II were once made, they quickly strike a more serious pose during an interview conducted by PARADE editor in chief Maggie Murphy and contributor Lynn Sherr. As they address questions from our readers about the economy, the political stalemate in D.C., and their family life, the couple hold hands, nod in support of each other’s answers, and make a case for their first four years in office and what they hope to accomplish next.

PRESIDENT OBAMA: We’ve gone through the worst

financial crisis since the Great Depression, and even though the steps we took averted another depression, it’s important for us to stay focused on how we grow the economy over the long term. We have a great opportunity to rebuild our roads, our schools, and that could boost the economy generally. What I want to do is make sure we don’t raise taxes on people making $250,000 a year or less [but] reduce our deficit by asking people like us, Michelle and me— who can afford it—to [do] a little bit more.

Health care is one of my proudest achievements, and hopefully, for families who are looking for more work, once we get health care fully implemented, they won’t have to fear that they’re going to lose their home if they get sick.

views that have so dominated Washington.

So how are you going to talk to Republicans differently if you are reelected?

PO: Republican voters, if you ask them about my particular policy positions, often agree with me. So there’s a difference between Republicans in Washington and Republican and Republican-leaning voters around the country. I think that after this election, we’ll be in a position to once again reach out to Republicans and say that the American people have rendered a judgment, and the positions we’re taking are well within what used to be considered bipartisan centrist approaches.

Some Democrats and crossover Republicans say they’re disappointed in your first term and won’t vote for you again. How do you get them back?

You said recently that the mistake of your first few years was thinking the job was just about getting the policy right—that, in fact, you have to tell a story. At the end of the Democratic convention, if you can do it in one sentence, what’s the story people should understand?

PO: As hard as the last decade’s been for a lot of middle-class families, we’ve got all the tools we need to succeed. We’ve got the best workers in the world, the best entrepreneurs in the world, the best colleges and universities in the world, we’ve got incredible diversity, and we’re a young nation. What’s preventing us from taking advantage of it is our politics. What we need right now is an end to the uncompromising

With Let’s Move!, our goal is to end the problem of childhood obesity in a generation. And while we’ve seen some very profound cultural shifts, we still have communities that don’t have access to affordable and healthy foods; we still need to find a way to impact the nature of food in grocery stores, in terms of sugar, fat, and salt; we need to keep educating families about how to structure a life that is healthy in a society where TV is rampant and communities don’t have enough resources in terms of sports and activities. When it comes to military families, we’ve only begun to scratch the surface. Many of these young people will have only known a life in the armed forces, so they’re going to need communities to be ready to embrace them and the challenges they’re going to enter society with, whether it’s posttraumatic stress disorder, or depression, or how to transition to another career.

MICHELLE OBAMA:

Are there any new issues you’re going to take up?

PO: Every step we take is designed to strengthen

the middle class. For folks who’ve been laid off, one of our big focuses is giving them the opportunity to retrain for jobs that exist right now, which is why we’ve really pushed to make financing for college more accessible for young people but also mid-career folks. All these pieces are helping to strengthen the economy.

Mrs. Obama, I want to turn to you and your accomplishments as first lady—supporting military families and your health initiatives aimed at America’s children. Many PARADE readers asked, what do you hope to accomplish in your second term?

Women’s health issues. How do we strengthen families and make them healthier— an issue not just in America but around the world.

MO: FA M I LY VA LU E S

With daughters Sasha, 11 (front), and Malia, 14, in Chicago on June 15, 2012.

Are you saying there’ll be a difference in how you approach Republicans, or their attitude will be different if you get reelected?

PO: My

approach has been pretty consistent from the start; I’ve often proposed ways to solve our problems that used to be embraced

by Republicans. There’s no better example than the health care bill, which was designed originally by the now Republican standardbearer and is working pretty well in Massachusetts. The Recovery Act that helped us avoid a depression, a third of it was tax cuts. My hope is that the Republican Party, post election, steps back and says, “Now that we’re not so worried about beating the president, maybe we should spend a little time focusing on solving the problems.”

This year, there is once again a conversation about the “superwoman.” Can women have it all? Is that even the right question?

MO: I

think that question limits us as women.

I work with a lot of young women—we have interns coming in and out, and this is always one of the first questions they ask—and the thing I try to remind them is that we have fought so hard for choice and options with our lives, and we’re just getting to that point where we’re willing to embrace all the different facets of womanhood. I know that when I came out of college, what I wanted and what I thought I wanted were very different things. Then I get married and have a career and, lo and behold, now I’ve got kids. And how you feel about motherhood when your children are small and when they’re teenagers, that’s going to change.

Mr. President, let’s begin with a question from PARADE reader Joanne D. of Riverside, N.J. She writes: “My husband and I are both laid off without insurance. We support you 100 percent. What can you say to keep us going? I’m getting a little desperate.”

PARADE:

8 • September 2, 2012

I want to keep young women from thinking that there is one right answer. That answer is going to change every year, every five years.

The two young women in your life went to camp this summer. How did you find the empty nest?

MO: What

he said this morning is that life is less sparkly and twinkly with them not around.

PO: It’s true. Our girls are quite expressive, and there’s nothing I enjoy more than just sitting around the dinner table with them and listening to all their ideas. I’ve got this incredible luxury, ’cause I live above the store. So every night at 6:30, I can come up and have dinner with them and get their perspective on what’s happening at school and in their social lives but also on— MO: On the world.

How often do you go back to work afterwards?

PO: Well, I always work afterwards. The ques-

tion is, do I use my upstairs office or do I have to come back down to work?

Let’s get back to the campaign for just a minute. We spoke with Governor Romney and he talked about the way in which you, Mr. President, are making our country “far more

like Europe, with a larger, more dominant, more intrusive government. …” How do you react to being characterized as somebody with foreign ideas?

PO: When you look at the policies I’ve promoted, they used to be considered bipartisan, mainstream ideas. What’s changed is not me. What’s changed is where the Republican Party’s gone.

In fact, a lot of the things I’ve done are things that Mr. Romney, when he was governor of Massachusetts, seemed to promote. … What’s absolutely true is that we’ve had to take some emergency steps, like saving the auto industry, that weren’t free, that weren’t popular, but were the right thing to do.

If you were female, we would ask, “How has being female affected your ability to govern?”

So, how has being black affected your ability to govern?

PO: I’m sure it makes me more determined in assuring that everybody’s getting a fair shot—in the same way that being a father of two daughters makes me want to make sure that every woman is getting equal pay

for equal work, ’cause I don’t want my daughters treated differently than somebody else’s sons. By virtue of being African-American, I’m attuned to how throughout this country’s history there have been times when folks have been locked out of opportunity, and because of the hard work of people of all races, slowly those doors opened to more and more people.

Equal opportunity doesn’t just happen on its own; it happens because we’re vigilant about it. But part of this is not just because we’re African-American—it’s also because Michelle and I were born into pretty modest means.

And so I think about my single mom and what it was like to go to school and work at the same time. And I think about Michelle’s dad, who had a disability and was working every day and didn’t have a lot of money to spare. But somehow our parents or grandparents were able to give us these opportunities partly because they lived in a society that said that was important. And as president, I want to affirm that that’s important and reject the idea that if we just reward those at the top,

IT’S THAT MANSION YOU’VE ALWAYS DREAMED OF. BUT FOR FOOD. With 31 cubic feet of pexible capacity, your leftover meatloaf better get used to living large. At least until dinnertime tomorrow.

Legal Notice

If You Bought a TV, Monitor or Notebook Computer That Contained an LCD Flat Panel Screen File a Claim Now to Get Money from Settlements Totaling Almost $1.1 Billion.

This is the second notice in this case. Settlements have now been reached with AU Optronics, LG Display and Toshiba (“New Settlements”). The Court previously approved Settlements with seven other Defendants.

Members of the Statewide Damages Classes can file a claim now to get a payment from all Settlements (see below).

What are the lawsuits about?

The lawsuits claim that the Defendants conspired to fix, raise, maintain or stabilize prices of thin film transistor liquid crystal display (“TFTLCD” or “LCD”) Flat Panels, resulting in overcharges to consumers who bought TVs, monitors or notebook computers containing Flat Panels.

The Defendants deny Plaintiffs’ allegations or that consumers paid any overcharge. The Court has not decided who is right.

Who is included in the lawsuits?

This case has recovered money for consumers in 24 states and the District of Columbia and governmental entities in eight states, and nationwide injunctive relief to stop the Defendants’ alleged behavior.

Statewide Damages Classes: Generally, include any person or business that indirectly purchased a TFT-LCD Flat Panel, which had been incorporated in a TV, monitor or notebook computer, from any of the Defendants or Quanta Display Inc., from January 1, 1999 to December 31, 2006, for their own use and not for resale, while residing in the 24 states or the District of Columbia. “Indirectly” means that you purchased the product containing the LCD Flat Panel from someone other than the manufacturer of the LCD Flat Panel.

The purchase must have been made in the same state where the person or business resided. Businesses in Rhode Island and Missouri and indirect purchasers who also had direct purchases (previously not included) may now participate in all 10 Settlements.

The 24 states are: AZ, AR, CA, FL, HI, IA, KS, ME, MA, MI, MN, MS, MO, NV, NM, NY, NC, ND, RI, SD, TN, VT, WV and WI. See specific class definitions at www.LCDclass.com.

Nationwide Class: Includes any person or business that indirectly purchased in the United States, a TFT-LCD Flat Panel, which had been incorporated in a TV, monitor or notebook computer, from any of the Defendants or Quanta Display Inc., between January 1, 1999 and February 13, 2012, for their own use and not for resale, and resided in the United States on February 13, 2012.

Attorneys General Actions: The Attorneys General of AR, CA, FL, MI, MO, NY, WV and WI are participating in these Settlements to resolve related claims arising from the same allegations as asserted in the class actions: (1) on behalf of state residents under state law and the doctrine of parens patriae, which allows a state to bring a lawsuit on behalf of its citizens, and/or for governmental entities; and (2) for civil penalties.

For More Information:

What do the Settlements provide?

Three New Settlements totaling $543,500,000 are being presented to the Court for approval. In addition, AU Optronics and LG Display are making payments to resolve claims for civil penalties brought by the Attorneys General. To the extent AU Optronics, LG Display and Toshiba continue to manufacture LCD Flat Panels, they have agreed not to engage in conduct that is at issue in these lawsuits and/or will establish (or maintain) a program to educate their employees about complying with the law. The combined Settlement Fund (totaling $1,082,055,647) will be used to pay individual and business consumers in the 24 states and DC. A portion of the Settlement Fund will be distributed to governmental entities in the eight states with Attorneys General Actions.

Payments will be based on the number of valid claims filed as well as on the number/type of LCD Flat Panel products you purchased. It is expected that a minimum payment of $25 will be made to all Class Members who submit a valid claim. It is possible that any money remaining after claims are paid will be distributed to charities, governmental entities or other beneficiaries approved by the Court. More details are provided in the Settlement Agreements and other documents available at www.LCDclass.com, or by calling the toll-free number below.

The cost to administer the Settlements, attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses, and awards to the Class Representatives will come out of the Settlement Fund. Plaintiffs’ counsel will request attorneys’ fees not to exceed onethird of the Settlement Fund, plus reimbursement of costs and expenses.

How can I get a payment?

You must submit a Claim Form to get a payment. You can submit a claim online or by mail. The deadline to submit a claim is December 6, 2012.

Claim Forms are available at the website or by calling 1-855-225-1886.

What are my rights?

The Court will hold a hearing on November 29, 2012 to consider whether to approve the New Settlements. If you stay in the Classes, you may object to the New Settlements, plan of distribution, attorneys’ fees and costs, and awards to Class Representatives by October 9, 2012. You or your own lawyer may appear and speak at the hearing at your own expense.

With the exception noted below, the first notice gave you an opportunity to exclude yourself. If you did not exclude yourself, you have given up your right to sue the Defendants on your own for the claims in this case. Only individuals and businesses that indirectly purchased an LCD Flat Panel: (1) while residing in Arkansas; (2) while residing in Missouri or Rhode Island that was not primarily for household or personal use; or (3) that had a direct purchase in addition to an indirect purchase, have until October 9, 2012 to exclude themselves from the litigation involving AU Optronics, LG Display and Toshiba. If you reside outside of the 24 states and the District of Columbia you keep any right you may have to sue the Defendants for monetary relief.

that somehow that’s going to work for everybody—’cause that hasn’t been how America got built.

One last reader question. Robyne H. of Maryland writes, “From all appearances you have a wonderful marriage. Can you share one occasion when you were absolutely furious, Mrs. Obama, with your husband? And Mr. President, how did you make it up to her?”

Make The World A Better Place For A Child.

PO: The problem is that she’s got so many examples, that may take …

Oh, pick one!

MO: This

last three and a half years, it’s been hard to be really furious at him, because he’s working so hard and doing it at great personal sacrifice, but he’s still managing to be the father and husband he was before. So I have a harder time taking [issue with] his little foibles, whether it’s leaving his shoes out or not.

Are they still there?

MO: You know, we have people [here] who pick them up. [Otherwise] they’d still be there.

PO: My pants would still be hanging on the top of the door.

MO: But little things, like, I’m waiting for him today for 30 minutes, ’cause I’m always waiting for him. He comes down and he’s, “All right, let’s go!” And it’s like, “Oh, so now you’re in a rush?”

PO: She’s more punctual than I am. I’m going to help her out— MO: What, you remember something I was really furious about?

PO: Well, I think the hardest time in our marriage was when our kids were really young. And that’s probably not unusual when you’ve got a working— MO: —two working— PO: —two working parents. Because no matter how enlightened men like to think they are when it comes to child rearing and balancing work, I think it falls a little harder on women.

MO: And the emotions are different. My emotions about my role as a mother are a lot more—not to say that he doesn’t want to be the best father, but he’s much more laid back about it and I’m much harder on myself, like many mothers.

PO: My general view was, if the girls went out and their hair didn’t look great, I was [chuckles], “Well, we’re busy right now.”

MO: Or they didn’t do anything all summer …

PO: Send them outside, let them run around.

MO: Or did they get tutoring? And he’s like, “They’re smart enough.

They’re fine.” That’s him. That’s absolutely him.

PO: As the girls get older and more independent, that relieved some of your stress.

MO: And then you see, actually, they turned out okay.

PO: They turned out okay. They’re a little more resilient.

MO: And they feel loved, and they love us.

Ask Marilyn

By Marilyn vos Savant While taking my vitamins one morning, I began to wonder: Where are the vitamins in these supplements obtained?

—Sara Petrick, Apollo Beach, Fla.

Most ordinary vitamin supplements are synthetic, manufactured entirely in laboratories, but have molecular structures that are almost—though not quite— identical to their counterparts found in nature.

Other synthetic vitamins differ more significantly from natural ones, depending on the production process involved, yet have similar actions. Still other vitamins combine synthetic and natural materials.

Regardless, any non-food vitamin should be considered a vitamin substitute, not a vitamin replacement.

The variety on the shelf is huge, but one thing is certain: Not all vitamin supplements are created equal! ®

FIRST AND TEN COMMANDMENTS A new book by Curtis Eichelberger examines how NFL players reconcile their deep faith with on-field violence

T

im Tebow may grab the most headlines, but a growing number of football players (from Matt Hasselbeck to Aaron Rodgers) now openly profess their deep religious belief.

In his new book, Men of Sunday: How Faith Guides the Players, Coaches & Wives of the NFL (Thomas Nelson, Inc.), Curtis Eichelberger shares their stories while examining the role religion plays in America’s most popular sport. In this excerpt, he writes of how former Chicago Bears middle linebacker Mike Singletary tried to answer the question he and other devout players often ask themselves: How can men who crack each others’ skulls claim to turn the other cheek?

It was 40 degrees, with a stiff wind blowing off Lake Michigan, when the Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicked off to the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field on Nov. 19, 1989. The Bucs were 3-7 and suffering like most years in the ’80s, while the Bears, 6-4 and just four seasons removed from a Super Bowl win, were on the precipice of a six-game losing streak that would send them toward the bottom of their divi-

sion. As the game neared the end of the opening quarter, Tampa Bay had the ball 1st and 10 on its own 32-yard line when Bucs quarterback Vinny Testaverde dropped back to pass. Running back Sylvester Stamps, a sixthyear player out of Jackson State, ran a short pattern across the middle and had turned back to make eye contact with Testaverde when—he never saw it coming.

Bears middle linebacker Mike Singletary, a ferocious hitter, had spotted the receiver out of the corner of his eye and was running toward him at a dead sprint when Stamps turned to spot the ball.

The collision was brutal, turning Stamps into a crumpled, motionless mass. “His eyes rolled back into his head,” Singletary recalls. “His tongue fell out of his mouth. He didn’t move.”

Singletary was scared. He’d watched hundreds of opponents return to the huddle glassy-eyed, unable to recall their name. But

this was different. He was afraid and still play the game he loved? he’d done real damage.

“I was thinking, Lord, I love You The linebacker took a knee so much, and I’m out here hurting and began praying. “No one people, and I don’t want to do knew what to say,” Singletary that. Am I wrong in what I’m says. “It looked bad. And I doing? Is this sending the wrong thought to myself, What am I message? I was really wrestling doing? Something is wrong with over whether I wanted to this. I waited and watched until continue playing the game.” it looked like he was going to be In the end, he decided it was okay, and then I refocused on his responsibility to God to play my job. We never spoke.” as hard as he could and make Having spent the best of the years sending talents the Lord players back to the had given him.

SINGLETARY huddle babbling “What it came DECIDED IT i n c o h e r e n t l y, down to,” he WAS HIS RESPONSIBILITY Singletary found says, “is that this TO GOD TO himself at a crossis my gift. I PLAY AS HARD roads: Could he didn’t want to AS HE COULD. be the Christian hurt anybody. he aspired to be I was playing the game as hard as I could to honor the Lord. I always said, Lord, every play I’m going to give You everything I fee have. From the bottom of my feet head all the way to the top of my head, I every tackle, every block. If the ball was thrown a hundred yards away, I was going to run as hard as I could run to abou get there. I thought about ’ one thing, and that ’s giving God what Jesu Jesus Christ gave for me on the cross—ever ything.

That’s how I was going to play. And I was aat peace with that.”

Tim Tebow strikes a prayerful pose while playing for the Broncos last season.
