BINGHAM FAMILY UPDATE

Senior Setback for a girl meals awaiting a new heart in limbo

• 8-year-old Lindsey, of Baker City, is back in intensive care in California

• Officials consider how to keep services going; director is let go

A Virginia company with 27 million mortgages on its books and just 80 employees to manage them has its fingerprints all over the nation’s housing market meltdown, foreclosing on thousands of homeowners out of court.

But bad bookkeeping has Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems, or MERS, in the spotlight.

Homeowners across the country are challenging MERS’ ability to foreclose.

In Oregon, jittery lenders are shunning the state’s decadesold nonjudicial foreclosure laws, opting instead for the longer and costlier court process.

That could throw circuit courts in Deschutes County and statewide into chaos. The flood of judicial foreclosures means less time for courts to handle criminal cases. They’re already reeling from a 30 percent drop in state funding last biennium — Deschutes County Circuit Court has cut some staff and required employees to take 10 to 15 furlough days through next spring.

The longer court track could also prolong the slow process of cycling foreclosed homes back on the market, derailing a tepid housing recovery.

Banking officials contend the more expensive judicial path for lenders will be passed on to consumers through higher mortgage fees.

Lindsey Bingham, right, visits with Eri Maeda, 7, the daughter of Dr. Katsuhide Maeda, who will perform Lindsey’s heart transplant, at Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital in Palo Alto, Calif. Though Lindsey is now in the intensive care unit, her family and doctors hope to return her to a regular room within a few days.

By Lisa Britton WesCom News Service

After 42 days of living the relatively “normal” life of a pediatric heart patient in a Palo Alto, Calif., hospital, 8-year-old Lindsey Bingham returned to the intensive care unit Thursday as doctors tried to control her irregular heartbeat.

Lindsey’s father, Jason Bingham, said doctors are hopeful medications will get the arrhythmia under control, and she could be out of the ICU within a few days. Then, she can return to attending the in-hospital school while she awaits the heart transplant that could save her life.

Lindsey has been at Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital since June 12. She’s on the waiting list for a heart transplant. Until one becomes available, her own failing heart beats with the assistance of a device called a Berlin Heart.

The return to the ICU was devastating to Lindsey, said Jason Bingham.

More choice, and confusion, in quest for healthy eating

By Kim Severson Physical therapists work with Lindsey before her move on Thursday to the ICU at the Palo Alto children’s hospital. “She bawled and bawled and bawled,” says her father, Jason Bingham. “She’s been trying so hard in (physical) therapy, and Stacy (her mother) had to tell her this wasn’t her fault.”

“June 12 was her last time outside. When we go for walks, we find a sunny window. The more she can be out of her room, the better she does.”

ATLANTA — Lisa Todd’s grocery cart reflects the ambivalence of many American shoppers.

Todd, 31, prowled the aisles of a busy Kroger store here last week. Her cart was a tumble of contradictions: organic cabbage, jar of Skippy peanut butter. Bag of kale, fourpack of inexpensive white wine. Pineapples for juicing, processed deli meat.

The chicken, perhaps, summed it up best.

A package of fryer parts from Tyson, the world’s largest poultry producer, sat next to a foam tray of organic chicken legs.

The conventional food was for her boyfriend, the more natural ingredients for her.

“We’re not 100 percent organic, obviously, but I try to be,” she said. “He doesn’t care, so I’m trying to maintain happiness in the relationship.”

Vast elephant slaughter under way

The Bulletin

U|xaIICGHy02330rzu

Bend’s largest provider of meals for elderly and low-income people announced Saturday it will be shutting its doors within a week.

Bend’s Community Center has spent the past decade operating out of a former church off Greenwood Avenue, serving lunches to senior citizens Monday through Friday, and hosting a Sunday meal that attracts hundreds each week.

Saturday afternoon, board president Bruce Abernethy said in a news release that “financial uncertainties and other difficulties” will force the organization to cease operations Friday, putting the future of both food programs in doubt.

The board of the Central Oregon Council on Aging, which contracts with Bend’s Community Center to provide meals for seniors, met Saturday to consider its options for moving the meal service to a new location.

“I would love for it to be uninterrupted,” said Executive Director Pam Noor. “Obviously, our mission is to take care of seniors — in this case, to feed them. It may not be at the same place, but we will find a way to feed them.”

However, today’s meal service for all comers could be the last for a while. Abernethy said other organizations may be able to take on the responsibility of providing the Sunday meal service, possibly even in the same building, but it’s too soon to know.

Abernethy said Bend’s Community Center has been grappling with the organization’s deteriorating finances since the spring.

Gutsy, bold elk are more likely to sprint faster and farther when they encounter a threat. Others shy away from danger in the first place, shunning human-frequented areas and exploring new places less often. Human hunters more often kill animals that fall into the bolder group, new research has found.

And this tendency could put evolutionary pressure on elk populations to become more skittish, the scientists hypothesize.

“There has been a lot of work in the past on humans selecting for appearance of animals,” says biologist John Fryxell of the University of Guelph in Canada, who was not involved in the latest research. “What really distinguishes this paper is the fact that it focuses on selecting behavior.”

Previous studies have found that hunters are most likely to target animals that are the biggest or have the largest antlers. To test whether hunting also selected for elk with certain behavioral traits, researchers led by biologist Simone Ciuti of the University of Alberta in Edmonton, put GPS collars on 122 male and female elk (Cervus elaphus) in the Canadian Rockies and monitored their movement throughout the year.

By the end of hunting season, 25 elk had been killed by hunters. The researchers analyzed the GPS data to determine whether the way elk move correlated with whether they’d been killed. Hunters, they found, typically picked the elk that moved more often and traveled longer distances and that were more likely to spend time in open areas. The trend was particularly noticeable for male elk, which had larger variation in their movement patterns. The researchers found much less difference in movement patterns between the killed and nonkilled females.

“What was surprising was that the differences in habitat selection and movement rate (among the elk) were already present long before the start of hunting season,” Ciuti says.

That observation suggests that the behavior reflects the elk’s personality and is not a response to the increased presence of hunters, he says.

The next question Ciuti’s team plans to ask is whether bold elk are more likely to be killed by other predators, such as wolves and bears.

“Bolder individuals could have an advantage over some of these other natural predators,” Ciuti says, “and so the population would balance out over time.”

The study, Fryxell says, “reaffirms something that we’ve suspected for a long time: (Humans) are exerting a strong influence on the behaviors, physiology, and life history characteristics of animals all around us.”

Big cats need big habitats to roam in. Will an increasingly crowded world still have room for tigers? A field study of tigers in Nepal suggests that, in some cases, people and animals can coexist by “timesharing” the same territory.

Nepal’s Chitwan National Park, established in 1973, covers about 1,000 square kilometers and is one of only 28 reserves in the world that can support more than 25 breeding female tigers — likely the smallest number needed to maintain genetic diversity, says Neil Carter, a conservation scientist at Michigan State University. Human activity in and around the park is both diverse and widespread: Local residents collect firewood, soldiers patrol forest roads to deter poachers and other criminals, and a growing number of ecotourists visit the area each year.

The good news is that the tigers are still there. Even though the park and its vicinity harbor about twice as many people per square kilometer as other countries where tigers live, a good number of tigers inhabit the area, Carter says. To study how the two species coexist, he and his team placed motion-sensing “camera traps” along trails and roads in a study area including the northern fringe of the park.

Surprisingly, Carter notes, human presence outside the park didn’t drive the tigers into the park’s wilderness: The density of tigers inside and just outside the park was not significantly different. And overall tiger numbers in the park didn’t drop when more humans were around.

Nevertheless, the team’s analyses show that tigers were more likely to be found at sites away from human settlement, the researchers reported last week in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. The team also found that the tigers in and around Chitwan park were much more likely to be active at night than tigers living elsewhere.

“Tigers don’t like to go around where people are,” says John Seidensticker, a conservation scientist at the Smithsonian Institution’s National Zoological Park in Washington.

Nevertheless, he adds, “Nepal has been good at working out ways for people and tigers to get along successfully.”

Timesharing the environment might not work well with many threatened species or in many areas: Think of the attitudes against bears, cougars and wolves in the United States.

However, Carter and his colleagues contend, the notion of humans and endangered animals sharing terrain by shifting their behavior — and particularly by shifting when each species uses the habitat — should be incorporated into conservation plans when it makes sense.

After 35 years, Voyager 1 set to leave ‘the bubble’

By Eryn Brown Los Angeles Times

In 1977, Jimmy Carter moved into the White House, “Star Wars” and “Saturday Night Fever” premiered in theaters, and the Voyager 1 and 2 spacecraft launched from Florida’s Cape Canaveral to explore the outer solar system.

That’s what the world was like back then, a planet as a speck in the only solar system the Voyagers have known.

In the years since 1997, there have been five more presidents and five more “Star Wars” movies; disco has given way to punk, grunge, rap, and whatever it is that’s popular now; and the Voyagers have flown billions of miles past Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.

Their explorations aren’t

over yet. As scientists at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in La Canada Flintridge marked the mission’s 35th anniversary, they marveled that Voyager 1 is poised to leave the solar system — crossing the so-called heliopause and entering the vastness of interstellar space.

When that happens, Voyager 1 will become the first spacecraft to “leave the bubble,” said former JPL Director Edward Stone, a scientist serving on the project.

Voyager 1 is now 11.3 billion miles from the sun. It takes 17 hours for a signal from the spacecraft to reach Earth.

Scientists believe the craft is poised to reach the edge of the solar system soon, and when it does, it’ll collect data that’s challenging scientists’ views of this distant boundary.

I saw a commercial on Q: TV that said BP had given more than $23 billion to the Gulf cleanup effort and businesses impacted by the spill. The way I remember, businesses had a tough time getting their first check. How much money did businesses receive from BP? BP is still compensating businesses, individuals and government entities for losses and damages from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in 2010. BP had reportedly spent more than $22 billion by March — $8.1 billion in compensation and $14 billion on its operational response.

BP reached an agreement later to pay an additional $7.8 billion to businesses and individuals, money that will come from a $20 billion trust set up to compensate spill victims.

In April, the Justice Department said about 7,300 individuals and businesses would receive another $64 million because their initial claims were shortchanged or wrongfully denied. The Gulf Coast Claims Facility, which has been replaced by the Deepwater Horizon Claims Center, received about 1.1 million claims from all 50 states and 35 countries.

SYRIA REFUGEE CRISIS WORSENS AFTER WATER MAIN IS HIT

After ineffective warnings, agency turns to real bans

A Syrian refugee carries a water jug to his family’s tent at a camp in Mafraq, Jordan, on Saturday. Across the border in his homeland, clashes between the military and rebel fighters burst a main pipe that delivered drinking water to hundreds of thousands of residents of Aleppo, opposition groups said.

The U.N. refugee agency Saturday said more than 1.2 million Syrians still inside the country, half of them children, had been displaced from their homes.

The agency, which has remained active inside Syria throughout the conflict, said the number of people in need of assistance there had doubled since July to 2.5 million, out of Syria’s population of about 21 million. Another 250,000 have fled to refugee camps in neighboring countries. The sudden water shortage in Aleppo was the latest pinch in a particularly acute humanitarian crisis in Syria’s largest city, brought on by weeks of fighting.

Dina ElBoghdady The Washington Post

When a 9-year-old old boy accidentally swallowed several tiny round magnets in 2010, regulators turned to one of the most familiar tools in their arsenal: warning labels.

The boy wasn’t hurt, but other cases kept surfacing, sometimes forcing kids into emergency rooms. The government learned of eight more incidents that year, another 17 last year and 25 this year — even after launching a public-service campaign warning that swallowing two or more of the balls can damage the digestive tract.

In response, the Consumer Product Safety Commission did what it has rarely done before.

It gave up on the warnings and proposed an outright ban.

The push last month to take this category of BB-sized magnets off the market signals a broader rethinking of an approach that Washington has long relied on to flag the hazards of everything from cigarettes to plastic bags.

The agency also successfully pushed for a recall of 4 million Bumbo baby seats last month after concluding that the warnings on those chairs did not adequately prevent the seats from being used in ways that could result in children falling and injuring themselves.

“What you’re getting into now is as much about the agency’s philosophy on how to deal with risk as it is about safety,” said Mike Gidding, a former CPSC attorney who specializes in product safety cases.

CPSC Chairman Inez Tenenbaum said she’s steering the agency in a new direction by trying to prevent deaths instead of just reacting to them. “I have made it clear to our staff that all of our regulatory options should be on the table when we seek to protect consumers from harm,” Tenenbaum said in a statement.

Some of the earliest federally mandated warnings came in 1927 when Congress passed a law requiring “poison” labels on household products containing certain caustic or corrosive substances, according to a report by Exponent Failure Analysis Associates, a consulting firm. Warnings on drugs, medical devices and cosmetics followed a decade later.

But a warnings boom took place in the 1960s, giving rise to some of today’s most familiar labels, the report said. That’s when words like “danger” and “flammable” and “keep out of reach of children” started appearing on entire categories of products with hazardous substances. It’s also the decade that Congress mandated warnings for cigarettes.

Today, warnings are so pervasive that they’ve become a nearly meaningless safety tool in some areas, more useful in protecting manufacturers against legal liability than in guarding consumers from harm, according to David Egilman, a clinical professor at Brown University’s family medicine department who has researched industry’s influence on warnings.

To deal with these challenges, the CPSC sometimes asks companies to rework their warning labels or display them more prominently. It occasionally demands a design change, as it did with Bumbo seats when the warning labels alone failed to curb injuries. It is still rare for the agency to go beyond warning labels and design fixes. That’s why the magnet issue has caused a stir.

Welfare waiver idea hits potential hurdle Stateline.org WASHINGTON — It took less than a month for the Obama administration’s move in July to grant states more flexibility in handling their welfare programs to shift from low-profile policy proposal to hot-button political issue that quickly permeated the presidential race.

Now, with Congress set to return to session Monday, it’s even more likely that the once-bipartisan and relatively uncontroversial proposal could be scuttled by opponents on Capitol Hill — with an assist from Republican governors around the country.

Armed with a Government Accountability Office finding released this past week that found the Obama administration’s waiver proposal should be subjected to congressional review, Republicans sound as committed as ever to blocking the plan that they contend “guts” welfare’s work requirements.

Though the finding did not say waivers must be approved by Congress, many opponents of the administration’s plans saw the finding as vindication of their calls for oversight, and as a potential path toward a vote on the proposal.

The waiver proposal was first seen as a relatively noncontroversial measure to let states experiment with welfare programs, flexibility sought for years by state lawmakers of both parties. Changes in the program, formally known as Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, could range from programmatic tweaks to altering reporting requirements. But Republicans pounced on the proposal, calling the move a backdoor attempt to eviscerate work requirements that were a key part of the Clinton administration’s welfare reform law.

Those involved are working on a response and a plan of action for when Congress resumes work between now and the November election.

Analysts: Syrian army won’t fall easily

By David Enders McClatchy Newspapers

ANTAKYA, Turkey — Though degraded by a war of attrition against increasingly capable guerrilla militias, the Syrian military remains a cohesive force capable of continuing its operations for the foreseeable future, according to independent military analysts.

The assessment that the Syrian military remains a potent force contradicts months of suggestions by Obama administration officials that defections and the pace of the increasingly violent conflict is overstretching the military, a theme that’s been voiced repeatedly for months in official State Department briefings.

“We think that the army is increasingly overstretched. We think that the economy is under increasing strain. And we think the rebels are getting stronger,” State Department spokesman Patrick Ventrell said Aug. 9 in one typical comment.

Yet despite a bombing in July that killed four of President Bashar Assad’s closest advisers,

“They’re still capable of handling the threats that they’re dealing with, and they’ve been reaching deeper and deeper and deeper into their armory.”

— Joseph Holliday, a war researcher

including his minister of defense, Syrian military strategy has changed little from six months ago: using the highly mechanized army — built to fight the Israeli army — to surround rebel-held areas and pound them with artillery and airstrikes before making incursions with infantry and paramilitary forces.

“They’re still capable of handling the threats that they’re dealing with, and they’ve been reaching deeper and deeper and deeper into their armory,” said Joseph Holliday, a researcher at the Institute for the Study of War in Washington who specializes in the Syrian conflict.

That’s not to say that the rebels haven’t made the conflict costly for the military. Since the con-

Clinton tells Russia sanctions will end — but will they?

New York Times News Service VLADIVOSTOK, Russia — Secretary of State Hillary Clinton pledged Saturday that the United States would soon lift Cold War-era trade sanctions on Russia, but she did not address human-rights legislation in Congress that has so far stalled passage, infuriated the Kremlin and become an unexpected issue in the U.S. presidential race.

Attending the annual Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit meeting here in place of the campaigning President Barack Obama, Clinton welcomed Russia’s accession to the World Trade Organization last month. She added that the United States must now normalize trade relations so that U.S. businesses can reap the benefits of Russia’s membership, including lower tariffs for U.S. products.

Although the sanctions included in the 1974 law known as Jackson-Vanik are waived each year and have no practical effect, they violate WTO rules, which could allow Russia to retaliate against U.S. businesses.

The effort to grant Russia normal trade status, however, has become entangled in legislation that would punish Russian officials accused of abusing human rights, denying them visas and freezing their assets.

That has raised doubts that any agreement on lifting the Jackson-Vanik provisions can be reached before the November election.

The human rights bill, which has bipartisan support in both houses of Congress, is named after Sergei Magnitsky, a lawyer who died in prison in 2009 after being prosecuted on charges that his supporters argue were manufactured to cover up official corruption.

Hong Kong drops plans derided as brainwashing The Associated Press Hong Kong officials backed down Saturday on plans to make students take Chinese patriotism classes following a week of protests in the former British colony sparked by fears of pro-Beijing “brainwashing.” (China regained control of Hong Kong from Britain in 1997.)

The semiautonomous Chinese city’s leader said it would be up to schools to decide whether to hold the classes. They were to have become a mandatory subject in 2015 after a three-year voluntary period. Public anger over the classes had been growing for months.

flict began, the military has been forced to call up reserves and it continues to use paramilitary forces to supplement its infantry.

“They’re taking somewhere around 40 (killed in action) a day. If you extrapolate from that, wounded would be about four times that number. So you can see there’s a steady toll just from combat on the army,” said Jeff White, a senior defense fellow at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy.

While there continue to be individual defections from the military, mass defections generally haven’t occurred, something Holliday credits in part to a government strategy of teaming units made up of conscripts with more professional, better-trained

troops.

“They are pairing their elite, reliable units with their less reliable units to prevent defections,” Holliday said.

White thinks the overall trend is downward for the army and that the rebels eventually will prevail. He thinks the fact that the rebels continue to contest areas in Aleppo, Syria’s largest city, and in Damascus, the capital, show the military’s weaknesses.

“The army’s going to become less and less capable of conducting operations successfully, and I think the best example of that now is Aleppo,” he said. “The city is critical to the regime by all accounts, and it is disputed territory.

For the regime, I think that is defeat. It’s not decisive defeat, but the regime’s inability to reclaim the city is a defeat.”

Holliday is more skeptical.

“The rebels are trying to harass supply lines, but the corollary to that is that the regime is making sure it has everything it needs in place. It’s not going to lose a fight in Aleppo,” Holliday said.

Advocates push the boundaries of North Cascades National Park

By Lynda V. Mapes The Seattle Times

SEATTLE — It’s a scenic jewel hidden in plain sight. Yet it’s one of the least-visited national parks in the country.

North Cascades National Park, created in 1968, has its champions, though, and some of them want to see the park expanded to include more than 200,000 acres of federal land left off the original proposal that many people probably even today think are protected.

Liberty Bell? That iconic peak isn’t in the park. All that mountain scenery clawing the sky along Highway 20? Nope.

The rain forest and old growth along the Baker River? No. Longtime advocates for some of Washington state’s most beautiful wild lands want to change that.

They face formidable political challenges. Battles to get Congress to expand parks and wilderness areas usually take years and are often opposed by those who fear new restrictions on recreational use or development. And the North Cascades proposal, first floated three years ago, lacks a champion in a Congress that is focused on budget cutting.

But supporters are in it for the long haul. They are a highpowered group with deep roots in the state’s conservation movement.

There’s former U.S. Sen. Dan Evans, who in Congress helped write the state’s wilderness areas into law, and as governor, stood up for creation of the park.

Polly Dyer, of Seattle, who as a founding board member of the North Cascades Conservation Council helped get the original park legislation through Congress, is among other luminaries of the region’s conservation community backing the proposal, including Norm Winn, Art Kruckeberg, Gordon Orions, and Estella Leopold, along with climbing superstars John Roskelley and Jim Wickwire.

“It’s wild, and it should always stay that way,” said Dyer, 92, who was traveling to visit Harts Pass in the OkanoganWenatchee National Forest with Donna Osseward, 73, and a van full of camping gear last month. Osseward, a committed conservationist herself, had to feign a bad back to keep Dyer from pitching a tent.

To Dyer, this landscape, with meadows that give way to glacier-carved valleys and infinite views to the west, ridge upon ridge, always should have been in the park.

But it and other landmark landscapes on federal land were left out because of controversy over logging and other extractive use that could have sunk the whole park proposal.

Pulling back the boundaries of the park left out important places that today remain unprotected — and underutilized.

“We fought for every inch,” said Evans, who battled for the park as a Republican governor. “There was opposition, as there always is, especially in those days when natural-resource industries were a much bigger part of our economy, and particularly with the timber industry there was a lot of opposition to any park at all.”

As the state’s population grows, protection is needed now more than ever, Evans said. “We have got to preserve these places, otherwise we lose an awful lot of our heritage.”

Off the beaten path The park always has been an underdog.

It lacks the sort of marquee attractions that bring in tour-

Expanding North Cascades The American Alps Legacy Proposal seeks to expand the boundaries of North Cascades National Park to encompass lands left out of the original park legislation signed into law in 1968, including scenic icons such as Liberty Bell mountain.

ists, such as Paradise Inn at Mount Rainier National Park.

The North Cascades National Park also is a struggle to reach on a highway that is closed some eight months of the year. Even when Highway 20 is open, it provides no direct, paved access to the park, which is reached only by footpath or gravel road.

It takes about an hour, for instance, to reach popular hiking trails such as Cascade Pass on the 23-mile, unpaved Cascade River Road.

The National Park Service, which tracks visitation by backcountry permits and estimates of day hikers and visitors to Cascade Pass, rates North Cascades National Park by far the least visited of Washington’s three national parks, with just more than 20,000 visitors a year.

That is the second-lowest rate of visitation to a national park in the Lower 48, after a park on an island in the Great Lakes.

The park also suffers a bit of an identity crisis. Highway 20 until very recently had no sign announcing the existence of

the park. And even the North Cascades National Park visitor center in Sedro-Woolley sells memorabilia featuring landscapes labeled as landmarks in the park that actually are outside its boundaries.

The expansion Part of the goal of the expansion plan is to increase park visitation by bringing the park’s boundaries down to the highway and adding about $23 million in new amenities, with the cost spread over at least five years.

The proposal includes new trails and campgrounds, to provide more family-friendly, low-elevation, three-season recreation opportunities that the high rock and ice of today’s park can’t offer.

The expansion also would protect important habitat for salmon and other wildlife, including animals in need of big, open space, from grizzly bears to mountain goats.

Wickwire, the mountaineer, and co-chair of the advisory committee for the American Alps Legacy Proposal, as the project is called, said he knows

these things take time. But to him, this is a landscape that has waited long enough.

“To get this kind of view, you usually have to climb one of these things,” Wickwire said, looking out from Slate Peak, more than 7,400 feet in the sky. While he’s climbed many of the major peaks in the world - and was one of the first two Americans to ascend K2 - “it’s the mountains close to home that mean the most,” Wickwire said.

Scaled back First rolled out in 2009, the original proposal has been scaled back.

The eastern boundary of the expansion was pulled back to Washington Pass from the Mazama area when critics in the Methow Valley opposed having the park — or a park gateway community — in their backyard. That shrank the proposed expansion to a little more than 237,000 acres from 350,000.

Some people say they just don’t like the National Park Service as a landowner because they want to be able to do whatever they want in the woods: take pack animals, hunt, camp, bike, enjoy motorized recreation or bring their dogs.

They also want to go wherever they want, whenever they want in the backcountry, instead of having to make reservations or get a permit “To me coming into the backcountry is partly about getting off the clock,” said Perry Burkhart, of Gig Harbor, who with his wife, Sharon, likes to tour the backcountry of the North Cascades using goats to carry gear.

“We can’t take our goats in the park, and we’d have to get permits. It restricts your freedom,” Burkhart said. “So we prefer it the way it is.”

But outside the park, lands that also lack federal wilderness protection are vulnerable to mining, logging, hydropower development and road building. “This is about long-term protection,” said Jim Davis, president of American Alps.

Continued from A1 The board considered but ultimately rejected a plan that would have closed down some money-losing initiatives run by the center, Abernethy said, such as the thrift store, a job training program, bicycle repair and distribution, and a diaper distribution program.

Through the summer, the gap between income and expenses continued to grow, with deficits twice as large as the organization had seen in past summers, Abernethy said. Fundraisers were not as profitable as hoped. The board decided against making a public plea for donations, he said, fearing it would create “a self-fulfilling prophesy” where talk of financial difficulties could scare off potential donors.

“It was a combination of once the deficit got to a certain level, some of the money we were hoping for from some foundations and potential donors went from being a sure thing to ‘Let me wait and see,’” Abernethy said. “Once those dominos started falling, it was almost impossible to stop.”

Bend’s Community Center founder and Executive Director Taffy Gleason was dismissed Friday and replaced by former Deputy Director Linda Heatly, who will oversee winding down operations over the next week.

Abernethy said Gleason and the board had been at odds since the spring, with Gleason resisting the push to scale back the organization’s operations. “The board is ultimately fiscally responsible for the organization, and we did not feel she would be willing or able to carry out the board’s wishes,” he said.

The senior meals provided

by COCOA moved to Bend’s Community Center, bringing along dances and bingo games run by the United Senior Citizens of Bend. Meals and programs had previously been

held at the Bend Senior Center, a facility operated by the Bend Park & Recreation District.

The UCSB operated out of the same building Bend’s Community Center now occupies from 1979 until 2001, when the park district opened the Bend Senior Center on Reed Market Road. Citing disagreements over the services offered to seniors there, UCSB moved back into its old home in June 2011, and is now weighing legal action against the park district to recover the funds it contributed toward the construction of the Bend Senior Center.

Viginia Reddick, president of USCB, said the loss of Bend’s Community Center is “devastating” for the community and praised Gleason for her efforts to assist the region’s neediest people.

“It’s more than just us seniors,” Reddick said. “We’ve been living there back home for over a year, and we’ve come to know just how the needs are being met. She has served the underbelly of this city for a long time in a way that no one else could do.”

Reddick said the center has provided “little things people don’t think about,” like the showers it provides to the homeless, free firewood for those with no other source of heat, and free blankets for those forced to live outside. She recalled a young and presumably homeless woman who came in to the center this year who had secured a job and needed a pair of black shoes before she could start work.

Having so many services under one roof was a tremendous benefit to the people that depended on them, Reddick said.

The building has a long history of serving the community, Reddick said, noting the city’s Meals on Wheels and Dial-A-Ride programs both began there.

“It just has to be saved,” she said. “I don’t know how, but it has to be saved.”

SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 2012 • THE BULLETIN

MERS Continued from A1 Perhaps nothing exemplifies the rush by mortgage bankers to turn rising home prices into investor profits in the late 1990s like the founding of MERS, created by big financial players like Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and the Mortgage Bankers Association in 1995.

In 17 years, banks across the country have assigned 75 million mortgages to MERS. More than 300 Deschutes County homeowners have found the Reston, Va., company listed as beneficiaries of their mortgage deed over the last two years, according to records filed with the Deschutes County Clerk’s Office.

But MERS has never dished out a cent in loan money on any of those mortgages.

So what, exactly, does MERS do?

“The goal of MERS is for lenders to avoid paying county fees,” charged when a deed is recorded, said Richard Hagar, a Seattle appraiser and a real estate fraud investigator who works with the Washington State Department of Financial Institutions.

Between the 1950s and the birth of MERS, mortgages were handled basically the same way: A homeowner purchased a mortgage with a local lender and repaid it to the lender over time. The record of that mortgage was recorded in county clerks’ offices across the country.

This has long been an important step, aimed at protecting homeowners from creditors or other parties that may try to stake a claim in their property.

One word, securitization, turned that system on its head.

Defined simply, securitization is the practice of banks bundling thousands of loans together and selling the debt on them to investors.

Rapid increases in home prices — the national median price of a single-family home increased 80 percent between 1995 and 2004 — gave bankers and lenders incentive to speed up the mortgage recording process. A rise in homeownership in the late 1990s and early 2000s increased the urgency: Outstanding debt on all U.S. home mortgages increased 500 percent from 1995 to 2004, according to U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis data.

MERS was seen as a way for big banks like CitiGroup, Bank of America, Wells Fargo and JPMorgan Chase to transfer mortgages from one institution to another, while getting around the time-consuming process of recording each transfer in the county clerks’ offices.

“MERS exists solely to be this private registry of loans,” said Melissa Huelsman, a Washington state consumer rights attorney who has represented clients in court cases filed against MERS. “That’s how the (lending) industry wants to keep track of their mortgages. But the problems came when they tried to make shortcuts and circumvent state laws, trying to act like MERS is the entity that owns and controls the loans, when in fact it’s nothing but a computer system that keeps track of bought and sold mortgages.”

Court cases mount Few were challenging MERS’ status as a mortgage beneficiary when the housing market was going strong.

But as home prices stopped rising in 2007, then plummeted the next year, thousands of homeowners across the country defaulted on their mortgage obligations.

Banks took action to foreclose. In many cases, MERS itself initiated foreclosure proceedings, despite the fact that it never put up any of the loan money.

In dozens of court cases around the country, homeowners have challenged the legality of MERS initiating a foreclosure.

In 2008, a year after Kristin Bain bought a home in Tukwila, Wash., she fell behind on her mortgage payments.

MERS filed to foreclose on her home. But the note to her property had been transferred, and just who held the note was uncertain. The bank that initially held her loan, IndyMac bank, had failed earlier that year.

Huelsman, the consumer attorney, took MERS to court, arguing that the electronic registry company had no legal authority to launch a foreclosure proceeding.

The case moved all the way to the Washington State Supreme Court, which ruled last

“The problem with the (Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems) is we don’t know who owns the (mortgage) note.”

— Richard Hagar, a real estate fraud investigator

month against MERS. “MERS’s officers often issue assignments without verifying the underlying information, which has resulted in incorrect or fraudulent transfers,” Justice Tom Chambers wrote in the court’s ruling. “MERS’s concealment of loan transfers also could also deprive homeowners of other rights, such as the ability to take advantage of the protections of the Truth in Lending Act and other actions that require the homeowner to sue or negotiate with the actual holder of the promissory note.”

In an Oregon case that began in 2009, Rebecca Niday, a resident in the Mount Hood-area community of Rhododendron, received notice of a foreclosure sale scheduled for her home.

The sale notice was made at the request of MERS, so Niday sued in Clackamas County Court, saying MERS had no financial stake in the property.

The Clackamas court ruled in favor of MERS, but the Oregon Court of Appeals reversed the decision in July, saying MERS could not launch a foreclosure proceeding without certainty that each transfer of a mortgage had been properly recorded — a process Oregon state law requires.

MERS filed a petition on Aug. 22 for the Oregon Supreme Court to review the case, said Supreme Court staff attorney Stephen Armitage.

It typically takes about three months for the court to decide whether it will hear a case.

Multiple attorneys who have represented MERS in court cases declined to comment for this story. Jason Lobo, a MERS spokesman, refers inquirers to the company’s issued news releases, saying MERS does not provide additional comment on court cases.

Responding to the Washington Supreme Court ruling, MERS issued a release disputing the court’s findings that the company could not initiate foreclosures.

“As we have maintained consistently, MERS is an agent of lenders and their successors,” the statement read in part. “We remain confident that MERS’s role in the U.S. housing finance system is valid and will withstand legal challenges.”

Others, like Portland real estate attorney Phil Querin, say MERS and lending officials are trying to justify a broken system.

“MERS was never properly vetted from all angles,” Querin said. “Not only did they not make an effort to check the laws of individual states, but nobody asked whether or not transferring the trust deeds would create a problem in the foreclosure process. Turns out it created a huge problem.”

With millions of foreclosure filings being sent out — 3.8 million were issued in 2010 alone, according to data from real estate analysis company RealtyTrac — banks shifted from loan providers to debt collectors. They found in cases involving MERS that mortgage transfers sometimes weren’t recorded properly.

One of the main reasons, Querin said, was a practice known as robo-signing. MERS appointed thousands of bank officials across the country as MERS certifying officers, as the company calls them, qualified to sign foreclosure documents under MERS’ name.

During the boom years, those officers signed deed transfers with little knowledge of whether they were complying with the law in the states the deeds were recorded in, Querin said.

“As soon as the foreclosure crisis hit, banks realized they didn’t have in MERS what was necessary to move forward with foreclosure,” he said.

When asked about this practice, Lobo wrote in an email that the company takes steps to ensure the certifying officers are qualified to sign documents.

“They are required to undergo a certification process before being appointed, and they must renew that certification on an annual basis,” Lobo said. “These criticisms are neither fair nor accurate.”

Judicial foreclosures rise The legal challenges MERS faces seems to have some of

the country’s biggest lenders rethinking their relationship with the Virginia company.

Wells Fargo hasn’t registered a loan with MERS in several years, spokesman Tom Unger said.

Neither has JPMorgan Chase, which stopped foreclosing under MERS’ name in 2006, according to spokeswoman Amy Bonitatibus.

Both companies still have MERS loans on their books, stemming from the purchase of other banks’ loans.

Other big lenders, like Bank of America, CitiBank and Fannie Mae, continue to assign loans to MERS. CitiBank officials declined to comment. Requests to Bank of America and Fannie Mae for an interview weren’t returned.

In Oregon, lending officials are concerned that the Niday case, as well as a new foreclosure mediation law that took effect in June, is changing Oregon’s decades-old foreclosure process.

Oregon is one of 24 states that allow nonjudicial foreclosures — ones that take place with notices of mortgage default and eventual foreclosure sale being sent to homeowners delinquent on their payments.

It’s generally a shorter and less expensive process than going to court with the homeowner under the judicial process, said Linda Navarro, president and CEO of the Oregon Bankers Association.

But the July Niday ruling “essentially puts a cloud over titles for lots of us that own homes in Oregon,” Navarro said.

Lenders are already switching nonjudicial foreclosures to the judicial track.

“We’ve seen a huge spike in judicial foreclosures the last few months,” said Tamara MacLeod, a Bend creditor’s rights attorney. “Obviously that is going to tap the courts’ resources.”

Navarro said the switch to judicial foreclosures could hurt all homeowners, in the form of higher mortgage rates in the future from lenders who expect to pay more to see foreclosures through the legal system.

But Hagar, the Seattle fraud investigator, thinks those fears are overblown, an effort by the lending industry to push back against MERS reform.

“The problem with the MERS system is we don’t know who owns the (mortgage) note, because they have put it into their computer database, and not the counties’ databases, so there is no public knowledge” about how mortgages are being transferred, Hagar said. “Everything that they have done indicates to me that it fits the definition of mortgage fraud.”

Heart Continued from A1 “She bawled and bawled and bawled,” he said Friday. “She’s been trying so hard in (physical) therapy, and Stacy (her mother) had to tell her this wasn’t her fault.”

Lindsey has dilated cardiomyopathy, the same condition that resulted in her older sister, Sierra, receiving a heart transplant six years ago.

“June 12 was her last time outside,” Stacy Bingham said during a phone interview from California.

“When we go for walks, we find a sunny window. The more she can be out of her room, the better she does.”

To keep the family together, the Binghams have enrolled their three other school-age children in Palo Alto, where classes started in mid-August.

Sierra is in seventh grade, Megan is in sixth and Hunter, 5, is in kindergarten.

Gage, 3, is not in school yet.

“It’s been a little crazy, and a little culture shock,” said Stacy Bingham.

But the biggest change is for Lindsey, who is in third grade at Lucile Packard, where teachers consult with each patient’s regular teacher back home so they keep on track with their studies.

Jason, an accountant in Baker City, returns home every two or three weeks to catch up. Stacy, a registered nurse, is in the process of obtaining her California nursing license. Her idea, if life allows, is to work one night a week or even just one day a month to keep her license active.

This California life is all temporary — they’re just waiting for Lindsey to get a heart. The family lives at the Ronald McDonald House in Palo Alto.

After a transplant, it’s about three months before the patient can return home.

As they wait for the new heart, Lindsey must stay healthy to keep her priority position on the transplant list. When she was out of the ICU, she filled her time with school, physical therapy, walks, the playroom and eating “a little bit.”

“No fevers or tummyaches,” Jason said.

Heart issues have been discovered with all five Bingham children, and results from genetic testing should be back later this month.

Stacy said there’s only a 40 percent chance a gene

“It’s been a little crazy, and a little culture shock.”

will be found that is responsible for the heart conditions.

Gage now has a pacemaker to keep his heart in the right rhythm.

“He still sees the heart failure team,” Stacy said, referring to a group of heart specialists. “(A pacemaker) doesn’t reverse the disease; it just slows it.”

In other words, chances are the Binghams will be faced with this wait for a new heart again, with another child.

And Sierra still must have annual biopsies to test for rejection of her heart. This year’s happened Wednesday, and doctors determined she has a 1B rejection — “meaning on a scale of 0-4 with 4 being the worst, Sierra has a 1B,” Jason said. “She has been a zero for about a year, so this was a surprise to everyone.”

He said her rejection medications will be increased, and she will have another test next month.

The news of Sierra’s biopsy and Lindsey’s return to the ICU came to the Binghams at the same time Thursday, Jason said, just as he was on his way home to Eastern Oregon.

“It was a hard day,” he said.

Doctors have put Lindsey on medication to try to control her irregular heartbeat. If that fails, they will try more aggressive medication, Jason

said. If the medications fail, she may need to have a second Berlin Heart installed to pump blood for the right ventricle of her failing heart; her current Berlin Heart pumps blood only for the left ventricle.

Jason described the second Berlin as a “last resort” and something the family doesn’t want to think about.

“But we’ve been down this road before, and I have to think about it — I have to be prepared for the possibilities,” he said.

9/11 museum may wait till 2014

By Charles V. Bagli New York Times News Service

NEW YORK — A dispute between Mayor Michael Bloomberg and Gov. Andrew Cuomo over the $1 billion museum at Ground Zero has dragged on for so long that the museum will not open in time for the 11th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks — or even for the next one.

Aides to Bloomberg and Cuomo have so far been unable to resolve their differences over which government agencies will pay the operating costs of the museum, which is intended to document the terrorist attacks of 2001 and honor the nearly 3,000 victims.

The two sides also remain at odds over who will have oversight of the museum and the surrounding memorial.

The negotiations are further complicated because Gov. Chris Christie of New Jersey must sign off on any agreement before it can take effect. Cuomo and Christie together control the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which owns the World Trade Center site. Bloomberg is chairman of the Sept. 11 foundation, which controls the National September 11 Memorial and Museum, and oversees commemorative

Organic Continued from A1 Like many people who are seeking better-tasting, healthier food, Todd had heard about a recent study on organic food from Stanford University’s Center for Health Policy.

Based on data from 237 previously conducted studies, the Stanford report concluded that when it comes to certain nutrients, there is not much difference between organic and conventionally grown food.

But it also found that organic foods have 31 percent lower levels of pesticides, fewer foodborne pathogens and more phenols, a substance believed to help fight cancer.

For Todd and countless other shoppers, the study just added to the stress of figuring out what to eat. And it underscored the deep divisions at the nation’s dinner table, along with concerns among even food purists about the importance of federal organic standards.

“There’s complete confusion,” said Marcia Mogelonsky, a senior food analyst for Mintel, a global marketing firm. “Most people have a randomly arranged set of diet principles. They buy organics sometimes. They buy based on price sometimes. Very few people are completely committed to any one cause.”

For some, the report gave credence to what many already believe: that organic food is not worth the price.

Only 26 percent of Americans regularly buy organic food, according to a 2011 Pew Research Center poll. Price is usually why they do not. But it is a difficult choice for people who are trying to eat better.

Political squabbling over the museum contrasts with advances on the rest of the ground zero site. The new signature skyscraper has reached its zenith at 104 floors, and 4.5 million people have visited the Sept. 11 memorial (pictured) since it opened a year ago. The memorial covers eight acres at street level, while the 100,000-square-foot museum is seven floors below ground.

events at the site.

With work on the museum at a standstill for nearly a year, fundraising and donations have fallen, and exhibits are gathering dust in fabrication shops in Buffalo, N.Y., and Santa Fe, N.M., according to museum executives.

The delay means that the museum may not open before construction on 1 World Trade Center is finished in early 2014.

Aides to Bloomberg and Cuomo said they hoped that

the 11th anniversary, on Tuesday, might create pressure for a last-minute deal. Late last week, the two sides began circulating proposals to resolve the yearlong impasse.

The first hint of tensions occurred after the 10th anniversary commemoration, when reports surfaced that Cuomo and Christie were annoyed at Bloomberg and the foundation over restrictions on access to the memorial and the ceremony.

ket and knows that Humboldt Fog is a type of cheese, the study was, at best, misunderstood and misinterpreted and, at worst, an indication of a conspiracy driven by large-scale, conventional agriculture.

“I was like, ‘Are you absolutely joking?’” asked Jeremy Bethel, 30, an owner of the Capra Gia Cheese Co. A constant at more than a dozen farmers markets in the Atlanta area, his company sells milk and cheese from 350 goats raised in Carrollton, Ga., and eggs from 400 chickens in Rome, Ga. “They want to make organics sound bad because they see such a movement of people moving away from big agriculture,” Bethel said.

Yet among some farmers who reject conventional growing methods and customers who seek out their products, organic food — at least as it is defined by federal legislation signed in 2002 — is losing its luster even as the interest in healthier, more natural food continues to rise.

And increasingly, smallscale farmers like Greg Brown, who for six years has been growing okra, green beans and other vegetables on a few acres in Barnesville, Ga., are opting not to apply for federal organic certification.

He thought about going for an organic label, but the packet of requirements was more than an inch thick and the cost to get certified too high in proportion to his profit. Instead he farms under the less expensive certified naturally grown label, a national program that has sprung up as an alternative to the federal organic program and that has nearly 800 farms as members.

The program, which relies on farmers to inspect one an-

other’s farms, does not certify processed foods like cereal. It requires that farmers use most of the same techniques as the federal organic program, but without the paperwork.

Customers seeking out Brown’s Greenleaf Farms okra and green beans are not really looking for a label, anyway, he said. “They want food from healthy soil, and they want a direct line between the grower and their food,” he said. “Taste is up there, too.”

That, in many ways, was the idea behind the organic movement, which began as a postwar response to the effects of chemical fertilizer and the rise of industrial-scale farming. In the 1970s, Alice Waters and some other West Coast cooks started looking for produce that tasted better than what most restaurant supply companies were offering.

They found a small community of environmentally minded organic farmers who were picking their fruits and vegetables when they were ripe and were growing varieties designed for flavor, not shipping and storage.

From that relationship came California’s organic laws, which in turn became the basis for the national organic standards.

“I didn’t intend to seek out organic local food, Waters said in an interview. “I was looking for taste.”

Like others, she thought the Stanford study was too narrowly focused on nutrients and had been largely misinterpreted.

“Taste is what’s going to get us to eat seven portions of fruits and vegetables a day,” she said. “To not consider taste and quality in this whole discussion is to completely miss the point about food.”

his convention in New York, fell back into a statistical tie in late October and ended up winning by three percentage points over Democratic nominee John Kerry.

Bush won that election despite growing dissatisfaction with the Iraq war and his leadership. He did it by firing up his base, which produced a big turnout among his loyalists, and then increasing his 2000 margins among key groups such as Latinos, suburban women and Roman Catholics.

That was enough to put him over the 50 percent threshold.

Bush’s model may be similar to the strategy Obama could use to win in November. But Romney advisers say there is one major difference between 2004 and 2012: how the candidates are judged on the dominant issue in the election. Then it was who could keep the country safe. Today it’s who can fix the economy.

On Saturday, eager to change the subject after the jobs report, Obama tried to rekindle some of the enthusiasm of his 2008 campaign with a bus tour through a must-win swath of Florida, urging supporters not to “buy into the cynicism that somehow the change we fought for isn’t possible.”

Romney, meanwhile, faulted both his own party in Congress and Obama for exposing the armed forces to huge spending cuts. Campaigning in Virginia’s military-dependent tidewater area, Romney was determined to keep the spotlight on the country’s weak jobs outlook. It was the first topic he raised in an appearance before a flag-waving audience of 4,000 in a hanger at the private Military Aviation Museum, vintage aircraft on display around him. “This is not the kind of news that the American people are hoping for and deserve.”

SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 2012 • THE BULLETIN

Fact-checking the nominees The Washington Post In defense of his administration’s policies on Thursday, the last night of the Democratic convention, President Barack Obama sometimes took license with the facts or left out key information. And the Thursday before, in his acceptance speech for the Republican presidential nomination, former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney focused more on his biography than his policy positions — but there were moments when his facts went awry or were missing important context.

We recap the conventions’ main events, the presidential candidates’ speeches, by highlighting five quotations central to the No. 1 issue in the race: the economy.

5 Obama quotations

5 Romney quotations

“Independent analysis shows that my plan would cut our deficits by $4 trillion. Last summer, I worked with Republicans in Congress to cut $1 trillion in spending.”

Obama repeated a claim made by former President Bill Clinton the night before, but even less accurately. Clinton referred to a “plan of $4 trillion in debt reduction over a decade.” Obama leaves off the time line and makes it sound like the current $1 trillion deficit would be eliminated, resulting in a surplus.

But, while the numbers seem large, the results are unimpressive. At the end of the 10-year budget window, Obama would have the national debt at a 76.5 percent of gross domestic product. That actually would be an increase over the 74.2 percent of GDP in this year. In contrast, the debt reduction plan envisioned by the Simpson-Bowles commission — cited by the president — would reduce the debtto-GDP ratio close to 60 percent.

Moreover, independent analysts have criticized the administration for claiming some $800 billion in phantom savings from winding down the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, even though the administration had long made clear those wars would end.

(The Bush administration had started the wars on borrowed funds.) Then, the president proposes to spend a good chunk of the nonexistent money on other spending — as he put it in his speech, “rebuilding roads and bridges; schools and runways.”

The $1 trillion in savings negotiated with Republicans, mentioned by the president, actually accounts for the bulk of his proposed reduction in spending.

Indeed, much of the president’s debt reduction would come from tax increases on the wealthy, not spending cuts.

“Unlike the president, I have a plan to create 12 million new jobs.”

This sounds like a pretty bold statement, especially considering that only two presidents — Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton, who both served two terms — created more than 12 million jobs. Romney says he could reach this same goal in just four years, although the policy paper his campaign issued contains few details. It is mostly a collection of policy assertions, such as reducing debt, overhauling the tax code, fostering free trade and so forth.

But the number is even less ambitious than it sounds. His pledge amounts to an average of 250,000 new jobs per month, a far cry from the 500,000 positions a month that Romney claimed would be part of a “normal recovery.” In recent months, the economy has averaged about 150,000 jobs per month.

The Congressional Budget Office is required to consider the effects of the “fiscal cliff” if a year-end budget deal is not reached, which many experts think would push the country into a recession. But even with that caveat, the nonpartisan agency assumes that 9.6 million jobs will be created in the next four years. (This is a revision downward; CBO had estimated 11 million in January.)

Moody’s Analytics, in an August forecast, predicts 12 million jobs will be created by 2016, no matter who is president. And Macroeconomic Advisors in April predicted a gain of 12.3 million jobs.

In other words, this is a fairly safe bet by Romney, even if he has a somewhat fuzzy plan.

Presidents are often at the mercy — or become the beneficiary — of broad economic trends, and Romney’s pledge appears to be an effort to take advantage of that.

“We will keep the promise of Social Security by taking the responsible steps to strengthen it — not by turning it over to Wall Street.”

This is a bit of a straw man. Romney briefly supported private accounts as part of Social Security in the 2008 campaign but no longer does.

In his 2010 book, “No Apology,” Romney makes it clear that the 2008 stock market turmoil had changed his thinking on the issue. “The 2008 stock market collapse is proof, however, that we can’t always count on positive returns from these investments,” Romney writes. He said individual accounts could still be considered but would need to be phased in over time.

Most important, he added, “I would prefer that individual accounts were added to Social Security, not diverted from it, and that they were voluntary.”

In other words, Romney has concluded that mandatory private accounts won’t work. The plan he supports now is strikingly similar to what then-Vice President Al Gore proposed in the 2000 presidential campaign, what Gore dubbed “Social Security Plus.” Gore said the accounts would be voluntary and “not be the product of any reduction or diversion of Social Security revenues.”

Meanwhile, Obama’s recent budgets have had limited Social Security reforms.

“I’ve signed trade agreements that are helping our companies sell more goods to millions of new customers.”

Obama did sign into law new trade agreements with South Korea, Colombia and Panama — which were negotiated by the Bush administration. The trade deals were held up for months by a bitter dispute between the administration and Congress over restoring aid for workers hurt by free trade.

Obama has not negotiated any other free-trade agreements.

“Over the last 31⁄2 years, we have focused on righting the ship, making sure that we didn’t slip into a depression, saving an auto industry, creating 4.5 million new jobs, getting health care done, helping young people go to college.”

The president actually road-tested this remark, because it nicely recaps his first-term accomplishments, and he loves this jobs figure — and it was, indeed, cited many times elsewhere at the Democratic National Convention. But it is quite misleading, because it refers to private sector jobs, not all jobs, and because it is based on a date (February 2010) that puts the president’s jobs record in the best possible light.

The total number of jobs — private and government — created in the United States from February 2010 is 4 million. The job growth number is still negative if you start counting from the beginning of Obama’s presidency.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, job creation in Obama’s entire presidency is plus or minus a few hundred thousand jobs, depending on whether you date his presidency from January or February of 2009. At this point, Obama is on track to have the worst jobs record of any president since World War II. “Nearly 7 million young people have health insurance because they’re able to stay on their parents’ plans.”

Obama has framed this assertion different ways, sometimes more accurately than the quotation above.

The Department of Health and Human Services in June reported that more than 3 million young adults would not have health insurance without the health care law. So how does Obama get to say that nearly 7 million “have health insurance” because of the law? He is relying on a private survey, published by the Commonwealth Fund, that showed that 6.6 million young adults “stayed on or joined their parents’ health plans” in 2011.

Not all of those people were uninsured; some simply joined their parents’ plans for other reasons.

The HHS report notes this fact in a footnote: “This number exceeds our calculation because it includes some individuals who were already insured, often through their own private coverage.”

Obama is more accurate when he frames his quotation this way: “Nearly 7 million young people can stay on their parents’ plan because of the health care law I passed.”

“Does it fail to find the jobs that are needed for 23 million people and for half the kids graduating from college? No.” Romney for months has been repeating this line: It refers to an Associated Press survey earlier this year that concluded that about 1.5 million, or 53.6 percent, of bachelor’s degree-holders under the age of 25 last year were jobless or underemployed. This was the highest level in 11 years, since the dot-com bust.

“A weak labor market already has left half of young college graduates either jobless or underemployed in positions that don’t fully use their skills and knowledge,” the news agency said.

“Young adults with bachelor’s degrees are increasingly scraping by in lower-wage jobs — waiter or waitress, bartender, retail clerk or receptionist, for example — and that’s confounding their hopes a degree would pay off despite higher tuition and mounting student loans.”

Romney often cites this fact but is generally careful to include the phrase “underemployed.”

His phrasing in his speech may have led viewers to believe that 50 percent of college graduates cannot find jobs, which is incorrect.

“His trillion-dollar cuts to our military will eliminate hundreds of thousands of jobs, and also put our security at greater risk.”

Romney attributes planned military cuts entirely to Obama, but they are the result of a 2011 budget deal between Obama and congressional Republicans that avoided a default on the national debt.

Leaders agreed to include additional automatic cuts to the military as an incentive to reach a broader deal, but a congressional “supercommittee” was unable to reach an agreement. Obama has proposed raising taxes on the wealthy to end the impasse, but congressional Republicans have rejected that proposal.

“Family income has fallen by $4,000, but health insurance premiums are higher, food prices are higher, utility bills are higher, and gasoline prices have doubled.”

Romney mixes in a number of correct claims here — such as the fact that incomes have kept falling since the recession officially ended in June 2009 — with one misleading statistic: “Gasoline prices have doubled.”

Gasoline was an average of $1.83 a gallon the day before Obama took the oath of office, but that was because of the economic crisis. Exactly four years ago, the average price was $3.67 — not much different than today’s price of $3.72. Gas prices had plunged after the collapse of Lehman Brothers sparked the crisis, reaching $1.59 a gallon by the end of December. So the dip was largely a temporary aberration.

Romney also says he won’t raise taxes on the middle class, “unlike President Obama.” He appears to be referring to mandates in the health care law, but overall, Obama has cut taxes broadly for the middle class. He has extended Bush tax cuts, included a “Making Work Pay” credit in the stimulus bill, and reduced payroll taxes by two percentage points in the past two years. Obama has called for raising the taxes of people making more than $250,000 a year.

“I will begin my presidency with a jobs tour.

President Obama began with an apology tour.”

This is one of Romney’s signature lines, but in a lengthy column last year, we tracked down every statement Obama uttered that partisans said was an apology, and concluded that each one had been misquoted or taken out of context. His comments were not much different from those of his predecessor, George W. Bush.

Indeed, on several occasions Bush apologized to foreign governments for the actions of errant U.S. troops, such as the shooting of a Koran or the abuse of Iraqi prisoners. “I told him I was sorry for the humiliation suffered by the Iraqi prisoners and the humiliation suffered by their families,” Bush said at a 2004 news conference with Jordan’s King Abdullah.

Fall’s must-see political TV: 3 Obama-Romney debates

By Donna Cassata The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Finally, the fall season offers the matchup sure to attract the biggest audience of the campaign: President Barack Obama going one-on-one with Republican Mitt Romney in three prime-time debates.

Typically the top political draw in the final sprint to Election Day, the debates assume outsized importance this year with the race a dead heat.

The candidates will have their sound bites and rhetoric down cold so any slip or inadvertent move — remember President George H.W. Bush’s exasperated glance at his watch or Democrat Al Gore’s repeated sighing? — could roil the campaign for days and linger in voters’ minds until Nov. 6.

No wonder Romney spent days this past week at the Vermont estate of former Massachusetts Lt. Gov. Kerry Healey for debate practice sessions; Ohio Sen. Rob Portman played the role of Obama.

The president has had one practice session with Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry, the Democrats’ stand-in for Romney, and is certain to have several more before the first debate Oct. 3 in Denver.

The second debate, a town hall-style session, is Oct. 16 in Hempstead, N.Y. The final debate, on foreign policy, is Oct. 22 in Boca Raton, Fla. Romney’s running mate, Paul Ryan, and Vice President Joe Biden have one debate, Oct. 11 in Danville, Ky. Ryan, after headlining two closeddoor fundraisers in California on Saturday and visiting Google headquarters to host an online “hangout” with campaign volunteers, takes a day off the campaign trail today to huddle with advisers in the Portland area for his first full day of debate preparations, according to two Rom-

ney aides traveling with him.

In the first debate, on domestic policy, Romney and Obama will be armed with competing numbers and visions. Both will be pressed for specifics on their job creation claims. Romney promises 12 million new jobs; Obama the creation of 1 million manufacturing jobs. Neither has said how he would make those jobs happen.

The candidates are diametrically apart on health care, Medicare, gay marriage, immigration and abortion rights — all potential debate issues.

The second debate on Oct. 16 will cover domestic and foreign policy with questions from a group of undecided voters selected by the Gallup Organization. An unusual format could elicit memorable responses from the candidates.

The final debate focuses on foreign policy, an area in which Obama has received high poll marks. But expect Romney to complain about Obama cuts in projected military spending (though congressional Republicans, including Ryan, voted for them last year).

Incumbent presidents usually are at a disadvantage in debates, defending a record against a challenger critiquing four years of work. Obama will be trying to avoid the fate of Presidents Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush, who turned in flat debate performances in their first encounters with rivals. In the end, though, it didn’t hurt either one as they both won re-election.

“Debating is a muscle that doesn’t get used very often,” said Alan Schroeder, a journalism professor at Northeastern University and the author of “Presidential Debates: Forty Years of High-Risk TV.” “Mitt Romney is better toned because he came off 20-plus primary debates. President Obama has not been on a debate stage in four years.”

Key dates before Election Day The campaigns have almost 60 days of campaigning left until the election. The closing chapter of the race will be highlighted by a burst of trail action in September and a handful of marquee events that could change the dynamic of the contest.

Oct. 2: Early voting begins in swing-state Ohio Oct. 3: Presidential debate, Denver Oct. 5: Unemployment data released for September Oct. 11: Vice presidential debate, Danville, Ky. Oct. 16: Presidential debate, Hempstead, N.Y. Oct. 22: Presidential debate, Boca Raton, Fla. Nov. 2: Unemployment data released for October Nov. 6: Election Day Source: New York Times

Debates aren’t like the highly choreographed campaign event or stump speech marked by over-the-top rhetoric. Schroeder said debates require a different dynamic — candidates need to be respectful, differing in opinion but avoiding any impression that it’s personal.

“In 2008, the first debate between Barack Obama and John McCain, one of the takeaways was McCain did not make eye contact with Obama,” Schroeder said.

“That came off as rude.”

Part of the practice sessions is figuring out when to be aggressive and how to demonstrate leadership. It’s also honing the lines from months of campaign speeches as the candidates get their final opportunities to speak directly to tens of millions of voters.

Rangers and Congolese soldiers patrolling Garamba National Park gather around the bones of an elephant in July. Congolese military men have a long history of raping and killing civilians and pilfering resources; according to a report written in 2010 by John Hart, an American scientist and one of the top elephant researchers in Congo, the “Congolese military are implicated in almost all elephant poaching,� making the military “the main perpetrator of illegal elephant killing in (the country).�

Ivory Continued from A1 At Garamba National Park, several days later, in early April, guards spotted a Ugandan military helicopter flying very low over the park, on an unauthorized flight, but they said it abruptly turned around after being detected. Park officials, scientists and the Congolese authorities now believe that the Ugandan military — one of the Pentagon’s closest partners in Africa — killed the 22 elephants from a helicopter and spirited away more than a million dollars’ worth of ivory. “They were good shots, very good shots,� said Onyango, Garamba’s chief ranger. “They even shot the babies. Why? It was like they came here to destroy everything.�

Conservation groups say poachers are wiping out tens of thousands of elephants a year, more than at any time in the previous two decades, with the underground ivory trade becoming increasingly militarized.

Like blood diamonds from Sierra Leone or plundered minerals from Congo, ivory, it seems, is the latest conflict resource in Africa, dragged out of remote battle zones, easily converted into cash and now fueling conflicts across the continent.

Some of Africa’s most notorious armed groups, including the Lord’s Resistance Army, the al-Shabab and Darfur’s janjaweed, are hunting down elephants and using the tusks to buy weapons and sustain their mayhem. Organized crime syndicates are linking up with them to move the ivory around the world, exploiting turbulent states, porous borders and corrupt officials from sub-Saharan Africa to China, law enforcement officials say.

But it is not just outlaws cashing in. Members of some of the African armies that the American government trains and supports with millions of taxpayer dollars — like the Ugandan military, the Congolese Army and newly independent South Sudan’s military — have been implicated in poaching elephants and dealing in ivory.

Congolese soldiers are often arrested for it. South Sudanese forces frequently battle wildlife rangers. Interpol, the international police network, is now helping to investigate the mass elephant killings in the Garamba park, trying to match DNA samples from the animals’ skulls to a large shipment of tusks, marked “household goods,� recently seized at a Ugandan airport.

A China problem The vast majority of the illegal ivory — experts say as much as 70 percent — is flowing to China, and though the Chinese have coveted ivory for centuries, never before have so many of them been able to afford it. China’s economic boom has created a vast middle class, pushing the price of ivory to a stratospheric $1,000 per pound on the streets of Beijing.

High-ranking officers in the People’s Liberation Army have a fondness for ivory trinkets as gifts. Chinese online forums offer a thriving, and essentially unregulated, market for ivory chopsticks, bookmarks, rings, cups and combs, along with helpful tips on how to smuggle them (wrap the ivory in tinfoil, says one website, to throw off X-ray machines).

Last year, more than 150 Chinese citizens were arrested across Africa, from Kenya to Nigeria, for smuggling ivory.

And there is growing evidence that poaching increases in elephant-rich areas where Chinese construction workers are building roads. “China is the epicenter of demand,� said Robert Hormats,

Most of the illegal ivory seized in large-scale shipments in the past three years originated in Kenya and Tanzania.

The shipments were primarily bound for markets in China.

Elephants roam the Congolese national park in July.

In 1989, the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species passed a moratorium on the international commercial trade of African elephant ivory, except under a few rare circumstances. No one knows how many elephants are being poached each year, but many leading conservationists agree that “tens of thousands� is a safe number and that 2012 is likely to be worse than 2011.

a senior State Department official. “Without the demand from China, this would all but dry up.�

He said that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who condemned conflict minerals from Congo a few years ago, was pushing the ivory issue with the Chinese “at the highest levels� and that she was “going to spend a considerable amount of time and effort to address this, in a very bold way.�

Foreigners have been decimating African elephants for generations. “White gold� was one of the primary reasons King Leopold II of Belgium turned Congo into his own personal fief in the late 19th century, leading to the brutal excesses of the upriver ivory stations thinly fictionalized in Joseph Conrad’s novel “Heart of Darkness� and planting the seeds for Congo’s free fall today.

Ivory Coast got its name from the teeming elephant herds that used to frolic in its forests. Today, after decades of carnage, there is almost no ivory left.

The demand for ivory has surged to the point that the tusks of a single adult elephant can be worth more than 10 times the average annual income in many African countries. In Tanzania, impoverished villagers are poisoning pumpkins and rolling them into the road for elephants to eat. In Gabon, subsistence hunters deep in the rain forest are being enlisted to kill elephants and hand over the tusks, sometimes for as little as a sack of salt.

Last year, poaching levels in Africa were at their highest since international monitors began keeping detailed records in 2002. And 2011 broke the record for the amount of illegal ivory seized worldwide, at 38.8 tons (equaling the tusks from more than 4,000 dead elephants). Law enforcement officials say the sharp increase in large seizures is a clear sign that organized crime has slipped into the ivory underworld, because only a well-oiled criminal machine — with the help of corrupt officials — could move hundreds of pounds of tusks thousands of miles across the globe, often using specially made shipping containers with secret compartments.

The smugglers are “Africabased, Asian-run crime syndicates,� said Tom Milliken, director of the Elephant Trade Information System, an international ivory monitoring project, and “highly adaptive to law enforcement interventions, constantly changing trade routes and modus operandi.�

Conservationists say the mass kill-offs taking place across Africa may be as bad as, or worse than, those in the 1980s, when poachers killed

‘We shoot first’ Garamba National Park is a big, beautiful sheet of green, 1,900 square miles, tucked in the northeastern corner of Congo. Picture a sea of chesthigh elephant grass, swirling brown rivers, ribbons of papyrus and the occasional black-and-white secretary bird swooping elegantly through rose-colored skies. Founded in 1938, Garamba is widely considered one of Africa’s most stunning parks, a naturalist’s dream.

But today, it is a battlefield, with an arms race playing out across the savanna. Every morning, platoons of Garamba’s 140 wildlife rangers suit up with assault rifles, machine guns and rocket-propelled grenades. Luis Arranz, the park manager, wants to get surveillance drones, and the nonprofit organization that runs the park is considering buying night-vision goggles, flak jackets and pickup trucks with mounted machine guns. “We don’t negotiate, we don’t give any warning, we shoot first,� said Onyango, the chief ranger, who worked as a game warden in Kenya for more than 20 years. He rose to a high rank but lost his job after a poaching suspect died in his custody after being whipped. “Out here, it’s not michezo,�

Onyango said, using the Swahili word for games.

Later investigation showed that the poachers were members of the Lord’s Resistance Army, a brutal rebel outfit that circulates in central Africa, killing villagers and enslaving children. American Special Operations troops are helping several African armies hunt down the group’s phantom of a leader, Joseph Kony, who is believed to be hiding in a remote corner of the Central African Republic.

Ivory may be Kony’s new lifeline.

more than half of Africa’s elephants before an international ban on the commercial ivory trade was put in place. “We’re experiencing what is likely to be the greatest percentage loss of elephants in history,� said Richard Ruggiero, an official with the United States Fish and Wildlife Service.

Some experts say the survival of the species is at stake, especially when many members of the African security services entrusted with protecting the animals are currently killing them. “The huge populations in West Africa have disappeared, and those in the center and east are going rapidly,� said Andrew Dobson, an ecologist at Princeton. “The question is: Do you want your children to grow up in a world without elephants?�

Several Somali elders said that the al-Shabab, the militant Islamist group that has pledged allegiance to al-Qaida, recently began training fighters to infiltrate neighboring Kenya and kill elephants for ivory to raise money.

One former al-Shabab associate said that the al-Shabab were promising to “facilitate the marketing� of ivory and have encouraged villagers along the Kenya-Somalia border to bring them tusks, which are then shipped out through the port of Kismayo, a notorious smuggling hub and the last major town the al-Shabab still control. “The business is a risk,� said Hassan Majengo, a Kismayo resident with knowledge of the ivory trade, “but it has an exceptional profit.�

‘Easy money’ That profit is not lost on government soldiers in central Africa, who often get paid as little as $100 a month, if they get paid at all.

In Garamba, the park rangers have arrested many Congolese government soldiers, including some caught with tusks, slabs of elephant meat and the red berets often worn by the elite presidential guard. “An element of our army is involved,� acknowledged Maj. Jean-Pierrot Mulaku, a Congolese military prosecutor.

“It’s easy money.�

Arranz has an exhausted look in his eyes. History is against him. Garamba was founded more than 70 years ago, in part to protect the rare northern white rhinoceros, which used to number more than 1,000 here. But many people in Asia believe that ground rhino horn is a cure for cancer and other ills, and it fetches nearly $30,000 a pound, more than gold. In the past few decades, as Congo has descended into chaos, rhino poachers have moved into Garamba.

The park’s northern white rhinos were among the last ones in the wild anywhere, but rangers have not seen any for the past five years.

Garamba faces a seemingly endless number of challenges, many connected to the utter state failure of Congo itself.

Poaching rates are now the highest in central Africa, a belt of some of the most troubled countries in the world. In Chad, heavily armed horsemen, who many conservationists say were janjaweed, recently killed 3,000 elephants in just a few years.

Garamba once had more than 20,000 elephants. Last year, there were around 2,800.

This year, maybe 2,400. “It’s like the drug war,� Arranz said. “If people keep buying and paying for ivory, it’s impossible to stop it.�

Hundreds join walk to raise money for ALS patients

An estimated 500 Central Oregonians turned out to Riverbend Park on Saturday for a fundraising walk to support people with ALS, or Lou Gehrig’s Disease.

Saturday’s head count, interestingly, was nearly identical to the number of people living with ALS in Oregon and southwest Washington, according to Aubrey McCauley with the ALS Association.

The numbers, McCauley said, tell only part of the story. Because ALS is a fast-acting disease, a newly diagnosed patient will ordinarily live only another

two to four years. Multiple sclerosis is diagnosed at the same rate as ALS, McCauley said, but its survival rates are much better — Oregon and southwest Washington are home to an estimated 7,000 MS patients.

ALS, or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord, according to the ALS Association website.

Participants at Saturday’s event collected pledges for their walk of a two-mile loop up and down the Deschutes River, with the proceeds going to ALS research and support for ALS

patients and their families.

McCauley said the walk should raise approximately $50,000.

Saturday’s walk featured several large teams, organized to walk in tribute to particular individuals lost to ALS. Eberhard’s Dairy of Redmond put together one of the larger teams, in recognition of Ted Eberhard, who succumbed to ALS last year.

For Kim Eberhard, whose husband Mark was Ted’s cousin, Ted’s decline and death was like watching ALS take her grandmother all over again. Though some things have improved over the last 30 years — patients

can now use computers that track their eye movements and allow them to “speak” electronically — the steady disintegration of those with ALS remains much the same, Kim said.

“It’s been a constant theme in my life for a long period of time.”

Ted Eberhard’s death was the second brush with ALS for Lisa Jackson as well. Jackson is the wife of the plant manager at the dairy, and her mother died of ALS 18 years ago, but until Ted Eberhard’s diagnosis six years ago, she’d never known another ALS patient.

The search for a man believed drowned in Lake Billy Chinook was called off Saturday evening, two days after he apparently jumped into the lake in an effort to save his injured son.

Gene Harris, 73, has not been seen since the unsuccessful attempt to rescue his son, 37-yearold Mark Harris, Thursday morning. The younger Harris had been waterskiing on the Crooked River arm of the lake with his father driving the boat.

Authorities noted Mark Harris had suffered a significant head injury when his body was recovered from the lake on Thursday, but have not determined the cause of his death.

Jefferson County Sheriff Jim Adkins said a sonarequipped boat on loan from Klamath County will return home today, and deputies will scale back their efforts.

“We’ve done everything we can. I’ve briefed the family, and I think they understand,” Adkins said. “We’re going to continue our daytime surface patrols, heavily concentrated in that area for the next week, two weeks, and we’ll wait and see what happens.”

Adkins said in addition to spending more time than usual in the area where Gene Harris was last seen, Jefferson County marine patrollers will be advising boaters of the accident, and asking them to contact the Sheriff’s Office if they see anything suspicious.

McPherson calls Redmond council seat a chance to serve

By Erik Hidle The Bulletin

Redmond minister Ginny McPherson says she’s ready to serve her community by joining the Redmond City Council.

McPherson, 60, is a co-pastor with her husband, Steve, at City Center Church.

“When I joined (city committees), I found I really love working for the city and being involved in the movement of the city,” McPherson said. “So I decided to take another step.”

McPherson has been on the city’s budget committee for

two years, and has served on the Downtown Urban Renewal District Citizen’s Advisory Committee (DURAC) since January.

She also serves on the board of the City Care Clinic, a nonprofit in Redmond that offers free health care to uninsured patients.

Add her recent experience with 32 years in the ministry, 15 of which have been in Redmond, and McPherson says you see how she sets her priorities.

“The whole premise of my

mind-set is to serve,” McPherson said. “This is a natural step, really.”

McPherson praises the city’s work in the past few years in both balancing an austere budget and working to improve job growth in the community.

If elected, she says her council term would focus on keeping the city on a similar course.

“I can’t praise the city enough for what they’ve done in this extremely difficult economic time,” McPherson said.

“They have been frugal with the budget, and as a budget

Craftsmen open Bend factory for lumber goods 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. 8, 1912

Sash and Door Works to open in Bend Everything for a house both inside and out in the line of finishing will be manufactured in Bend in the course of a few months. A sash and door factory is now under way, and the owners expect to have it running by November 1.

The promoters of the new industry, the first of its kind in Bend and Central Oregon, are J.J. Currie and B. Truble

YESTERDAY of Seattle, who are experienced men in this line of work. They arrived in Bend Friday night and Saturday started to work on their buildings, the first of which is a camp house for tools and living quarters. This is practically completed already.

The plant will be known probably as the Bend Sash and Door Works. It will turn out doors, sash, water tanks and, later, boxes, it being the plan of the owners to begin making boxes during the winter. Local lumber will be used, and Messrs Currie and Truble believe that their output will compare favorably with the fir-manufactured goods. They expect to sell

most of their products locally at first, gradually building up a market outside and exporting.

A part carload of machinery has already come in for them, and the rest is ready to be shipped from Portland as soon as their building is ready for it to be installed.

Power for operation of the machinery will be secured from the North Canal dam, only a few hundred feet away.

The promoters are hard workers and having the means to carry on the industry they are starting here they will no doubt be very successful.

Mr. Currie’s wife and son came in with him. Mr. Truble is unmarried.

Kim Eberhard said it’s frustrating that even 30 years after her grandmother’s diagnosis, ALS patients face the

“They become prisoners in their own bodies, and their minds are still alert and full,” Kim said. “It’s terrible.”

Europe nears war

Death claims E.A. Sather

Britain and France were determined today to use their combined fleets if necessary to end the submarine menace to shipping, and to force the issue at an international conference in Switzerland next Friday regardless of any objections of Russia, Italy or Germany.

The issue of peace or war in Europe was brought to a head by a Russian note to Rome, accusing Italy of submarine “piracy.” Italy curtly rejected Russia’s demands.

In consequence there were intimations that relations between the two powers might be served, and that Russia might send all her merchantmen through the Mediterranean with warships.

The British and French were angered and dismayed by the turn of events. They took the attitude that this Mediterranean conference must not fail; that if Italy, Germany or Russia refuse to collaborate in a general agreement, Britain and France will go to the limit to protect their shipping and will invite other interested powers to join them.

The feeling grew both in London and Paris that European statesmen must make up their minds at once whether there is to be peace or war.

Britain and France were strengthened in their attitude by the knowledge that their combined fleets would be supreme on the Mediterranean and not likely to be attacked.

Britain did not wish at present to jeopardize the conference by formal announcement of agreement to collaborate with France in the inland sea, but it is known that Britain considers piracy must be stopped at all costs.

The attitude of Russia and Italy was the key to the situation. Russia has made no direct move, but Fuehrer Adolph Hitler proclaimed German support of Italy against communist Russia in a speech to the Nazi party rally at Nuremburg today.

It was feared that if Russia attends the Mediterranean conference, she may appear in the role of accuser of Italy and demand that the powers take direct, stern action against her.

There would be little chance of the powers agreeing.

Tension throughout Europe was greater than at any time since Great Britain and Italy were at the verge of open war

Evan A. Sather, a 102-yearold Bend pioneer, died Thursday evening at his home at 7 Tumalo Avenue. A resident of Bend for the past 58 years, he moved here with his family the year after the city was incorporated.

Mr. Sather, who came to America at the age of 20, was born March 15, 1860, in Saxumdalen, Norway. He first settled in Minneapolis, Minn., and later moved west.

In 1902 he came to Central Oregon by covered wagon to file on a homestead. Two of his youngsters were tied in their bunks to protect them from bumps on the rough road across the lava beds. One occasion, it is said, Mrs. Sather, carrying a nursing infant, walked ahead of the wagon to find a camping spot, and had a fire going to guide her family to the stopping place.

Mr. Sather was married in Minneapolis in 1886 to Christina M. Peterson. In 1889, before Bend had appeared on the map of Oregon, the family moved to Tacoma, Washington where he was in the photographic business.

During the gold rush days in Alaska, he made three trips to the Yukon in quest of gold and pictures.

In 1904, after the family had settled in Bend, Mr. Sather opened a general merchandise business on Wall Street where Economy Drugs is now located. For many years “Sather’s Hall” on the upper floor of the building was a meeting place for lodges and the scene of dances and other public gatherings.

Sather, a life-long Republican, was a familiar figure on election boards for many years after his retirement from business in 1917. There were many years when he fished the Deschutes County lakes and streams in summer, spending most winters, since the death of his wife in 1940, with his daughters in California and Arizona.

Bend’s first fire chief, Mr. Sather also served on the city council and in early years was active in Commercial Club work. He was a member of the Deschutes pioneer association, and had often been honored as its oldest member.

Heck, let’s bid for ’68 winter Olympics Now that Portland has

tossed in its bid for the 1968 Olympic Games, it’s time Central Oregon got in the act.

Of course, that estimated $63 million needed to finance the summer spectacular might be a little steep for us poor folks.

But if Portland thinks it can host the summer show, we ought to at least bid for the Winter Olympic Games.

25 YEARS AGO For the week ending Sept. 8, 1987

Revelers bop at top of mountain A bike rodeo, trick riding demonstration, a limbo bar, beer garden, hot sun and heated volleyball competition turned the second annual Bop At The Top celebration into a big party for young and not-so-young at Mount Bachelor’s Sunrise Lodge over the weekend.

The holiday fun continued through Sunday when the Show and Shine Car Show brought out the best from the 1930s through the ’60s. Fancy fins and whitewalls inspired nostalgia buffs.

While the music and games went full tilt, some escaped to a slow and easy 94-cent ride to the top of Mount Bachelor.

Spectacular views unfolded as hang gliders circled in thermals above.

From the DJ’s turntable music of the ’50s era, oldies-butgoodies, spun out the sounds of the likes of Chubby Checker and the Big Bopper while a few creative folks showed off notably authentic period get-ups.

Tigard Schwinn brought a talented team of demonstration riders. They wowed the crowd with daring stunts too cool for mere mortals to try on tough little BMX bikes.

The bikes danced and leaped, performing spins and leaps under practiced guidance and drew gasps of amazement and wild applause from a gathering of young hopefuls on the sidelines.

To the rhythms of “Limbo Rock” the littlest kids had a distinct advantage as the limbo bar moved lower. Johnny Mueters demonstrated a classic style. He and Chad Bailey won T-shirts while sunglasses went to Ryan Connell and Gabriel Nehl, both 8.

Seven volleyball teams showed up to compete in the warm, clear air, while nearby the less energetic sipped brew in the fenced-off beer garden and watched the action from the lawn.

When it came time for adult limbo some of the guzzlers got up to try their luck. Top prize went to sinewy 6-foot-5 Fred Ray of Bend, who found his height no handicap in slipping under the low bar. Mitch McCarthy impressed onlookers with his agility and authentic movements.

As the day wound down browned bodies, cast-off shirts and a few forgotten drinks littered the picnic area and happy folk headed down the road for home.

O N Salem slaying underscores jail’s overcrowding problem The Associated Press SALEM — The suspect in a fatal shooting of a Salem man this week was released from the Marion County Jail less than one month ago, once again drawing attention to the jail that officials say is overcrowded and underfunded.

Last year, almost 14,000 offenders came through the Marion County Jail, although the facility has capacity only for 405.

The Salem Statesman Journal reports that means correctional staff weigh the relative risks of potential inmates daily in making release decisions.

Mark E. Brown, accused

this week of the slaying of Bryan Knorr in a Walmart parking lot, was released from the jail on Aug. 11.

Jail commander Sheila Lorance stands by the decision to release Brown, saying his risk score indicated he was an appropriate inmate to release.

Brown had been released from jail after being brought in the same day on a drug charge. The jail was at capacity that day — as it almost always is — and corrections staff reviewed a list of factors to assess Brown’s risk to the community.

“When someone comes in and we’re full, we assess their

risk,” Lorance said. “(Brown) came in, his score was low enough that 405 people in custody had higher scores than he did.”

Staff consider a host of factors in calculating risk, including the accused’s charges, how long they have lived in the community and their criminal history.

Brown, for example, had been arrested 12 times before being brought in Aug. 11, which Lorance compared with other inmates who had been arrested 50 to 100 times.

Lorance said the jail’s assessment tool isn’t missing anything, saying it goes beyond requirements laid out in state

law to ensure safety.

She would not reveal exactly how risk scores are calculated, because doing so, she said, could tip off offenders to ways to potentially game the system. “There’s a lot of thought and work that went into that to get the best tool,” she said. “I think we have the best possible predictor.”

It’s not all about space: An entire pod of jail beds — room for 128 inmates — is dark today because the county doesn’t have enough money to operate it.

“We have the infrastructure,” Lorance said. “We just don’t have the funding to safely staff it.”

UO works to grow MBA program — starting with tuition increase

By Diane Dietz The Register-Guard, Eugene

It’s business, not physics, but Kees de Kluyver is anticipating a “quantum leap” in stature of the Oregon MBA program.

In his third year at the helm of the University of Oregon’s Lundquist College of Business, de Kluyver is making dramatic moves with the business graduate degree program.

He boosted tuition for MBA students by 25 percent for the coming academic year and signaled he will implement another 25 percent boost for 2013-14.

He aims to double enrollment, up to 160, of MBA students at the Eugene campus in three years. He’s making new hires with “fresh blood, fresh eyes, a different way of looking at things and a new energy level,” one faculty member said.

De Kluyver said he wants to make the Oregon MBA more distinctive and attract more and better students.

“We want to increase, as rapidly as we can, our standing among public institutions,” the dean said.

The UO has two separate MBA programs: The Oregon MBA, for fulltime students at the Eugene campus, is a regular part of the UO and gets general fund money.

The Oregon Executive MBA, offered in one-day sessions over two years to working business managers at a Portland outpost, is self-supporting and has its own separate tuition scale.

Both programs are in the Lundquist College of Business, and de Kluyver has plans for both.

The UO’s push comes as MBA programs nationwide are under pressure. High tuition and uncertain job prospects have deterred some would-be students from regular full-time MBA programs.

At the Eugene campus, the MBA student body has fallen to 77 for this fall, down from 98 last academic year.

The Portland MBA program, too, has faced troubles.

Leadership turnover has forced the UO to delay the introduction of new content at the Portland program aimed at offering executives quicker and more highly specialized training segments.

At the Oregon MBA program in Eugene, the tuition had to go up to help pay for the ambitious upgrade and, de Kluyver said, to place the Oregon MBA in league with the University of Washington, the University of Arizona and the major California universities.

“They were at tuition levels north of $65,000 or $70,000 (for two-year degrees). We were lagging at levels half or less than that,” he said. “If you want to be taken seriously, you cannot be priced half somebody else’s offering, because you simply will not be considered.”

“If you want to be taken seriously, you can not be priced half somebody else’s offering, because you simply will not be considered.”

— Kees de Kluyver, UO’s Lundquist College of Business

At half price, it’s impossible to sell the program as a Mercedes, he said.

This year’s turbo tuition boost takes the two-year program cost for newly enrolling students to $41,766, up from $33,420. For students in the middle of the two-year program this year, the tuition increase was capped at 10 percent.

De Kluyver said the college took pains to explain the increase to students.

While a 6 percent increase for undergraduates university-wide sparked protests this year, the MBA students grumbled a bit and then got back to work, said Mikaela Hicks, a second-year student focusing on business sustainability.

The degree is an investment, she said.

“All of the tuition increase is going to be directly reflected in the increased quality of the program,” said Hicks. “We are students who are educated in the management of money and so we understand how these things have to go.”

Student Matt Justice, who starts the MBA program this fall and will concentrate his studies in financial and securities analysis, is philosophical about potentially paying 50 percent more in tuition for his degree.

“There are pros and cons,” said Justice, who may seek to become a hedge fund manager. “You have to pay more, but the better the program, the better I’ll be prepared.”

Recruiting students As the UO built the Lillis Business Complex — which opened in 2003 — and beefed up undergraduate business programs, the MBA offerings fell by the wayside, said Rebecca Monro, the newly named assistant dean of the Eugene campus MBA program.

Student recruiting lagged, she said.

“Especially in the world of MBA programs, if you’re not out there talking to prospective students, if you’re not out there in the marketplace saying, ‘Look at us,’ they’re not looking at you.”

That’s changing this year.

The first week in September, the Oregon MBA goes on tour with recruiting events in Tokyo, Taipei and Seoul.

On Sept. 5 and 6, Oregon MBA recruiters will take part in The Economist’s virtual MBA fair, an on-screen event during which prospective students log on and chat live with recruiters.

“We want to make sure our base of students is of very high quality,” Monro said. “Many other MBA programs, if they

need to grow, they open the doors. That is a strategy. It’s not a strategy we’re choosing here.”

The program already has a distinctive appeal.

“I was looking to go elsewhere in the country and even in Europe,” said Lauren Loepp, who enters the program this fall. “It became clear the UO was a good fit for me.

The culture of Oregon is what I’m looking for. The faculty they’ve brought in recently has been top notch.”

Focused study The Eugene campus MBA program is formed around four areas of study in which the faculty excels, de Kluyver said.

Students take traditional MBA classes — finance, management, market analysis — but they also a line up with one of these specialties: Warsaw Sports Marketing Center, Center For Sustainable Business, The Lundquist Center for Entrepreneurship, or the Finance and Security Analysis Center.

The subjects make the UO stand out among MBA programs, said Hicks, whose focus is sustainable business practices and who wants to work as a marketer for organic farming.

The Oregon MBA has long had an international focus, but de Kluyver, who originally came to the UO as an exchange student from the Netherlands, is pushing it further along.

“I very much am a globalist,” he said.

As many as one-third of the MBA students have been from other countries. The current group includes students from Ecuador, Taiwan, China and the Netherlands.

Each fall, students between their first and second years take a two-week trip to Asia.

This year, 30 are going to Beijing, Shanghai and Hong Kong.

The overseas learning brings “an incredible amount of rich perspective to all of our classes,” Hicks said.

the changes, he said.

It’s working, assistant dean Randy Swangard said. “He has laid out of vision for where we need to go,” he said.

De Kluyver hired Monro, who he said was “stellar” as second in command at the University of Minnesota’s Carlson School of Management. At the UO, she’s in charge of the MBA program.

“I need a lot of people with a lot of energy. Rebecca has energy,” de Kluyver said.

John Hull, the new managing director of the Business Innovation Institute, started at the UO on July 1. He’s managed investments for Intel, Nike and Marquam Hill Capital.

Other new hires include Nathan Lillegard, co-founder of the biotech company Floragenex, to manage the Lundquist Center for Entrepreneurship; Laura Strohm, who ran a Salinas, Calif., sustainabilty think tank, to manage the Center For Sustainable Business Practices; and Michele Henney, an accounting expert, to run the Finance And Securities Analysis Center.

Hicks sat in on interviews for several posts. The UO opted against some “very strong candidates,” she said, “because they were not quite what they were looking for. That’s a good sign. They’re not going to just fill a vacancy. They are going to fill it with the right person.”

De Kluyver is in the market for four new tenure track faculty, and he expects to hire more as the MBA program signs up more students.

Many of the new hires have ties to the UO: de Kluyver is an alum, Hull is a MBA program graduate and Henney teaches at the UO.

EUGENE — A Lane County sheriff’s spokeswoman says officers are investigating a death at a residence south of Eugene.

Spokeswoman Carrie Carver says neighbors phoned the sheriff’s office Friday evening to say they’d dropped by the home to check on a friend and walked in on what appeared to be a crime scene.

Carver tells KVAL-TV that one person is dead and another is injured.

No additional details were immediately available.

East Oregon goes after mosquitoes PENDLETON — The discovery of the West Nile virus in two counties in East Oregon has triggered a seek-and-destroy mission for adult mosquitoes in the 274 square-mile North Morrow Vector Control District.

The East Oregonian reports surveillance is conducted on problem areas weekly, which are then treated with pesticide.

Two August discoveries of the virus touched off the decision to seek adult mosquitoes. The control district usually focuses on eliminating mosquito larva.

Traps armed with dry

ice produce carbon dioxide, attracting mosquitoes into a net, where they are held until their species can be identified.

Only certain species can carry West Nile, so diseasecarrying species are sent to the Oregon State University Veterinary Diagnostic Lab for testing.

Pair accused of selling $1M in stolen goods PORTLAND — Police say a pair of Portland-area men are responsible for selling more than $1 million in stolen goods on eBay, including high-end guitars, cameras and computers.

KOIN-TV reports the investigation began when a Guitar Center employee noticed a $2,750 guitar missing from the store. He later discovered it on eBay. Detectives say the same eBay account sold $1 million in goods since 2008.

Joan Lee Williams 1935 - 2012 Joan Lee Williams was ushered into heaven, Friday morning, August 31, with a hymn, after finally out-foxing ovarian cancer. Her desire was to spend her last days at home rather than in a hospital, and Providence favored her last wishes as her final week was indeed spent at home, attended to by family and friends.

Joan was born in 1935 in Portland, Oregon, to Paul F. Bale and Dorothy Lee Andrews and shortly thereafter moved to Salem. She attended Salem High School with husband-to-be, Howard M. Williams, both graduating in 1953. Joan spent a year at Oregon State University while Howard prepared for what was to be a career in the United States Air Force. As a young woman, she enjoyed Girl Scouts, scrapbooking, cinema (as attested to by a sweet collection of signed 8x10s of 1930s and ’40s Hollywood stars and starlets) and camping and hiking with an avidly outdoorsy father and mother.

Joan and Howard married on August 31, 1954, honeymooned in Astoria and were apart for the following year while Howard completed a year’s tour of duty in Fusee, Japan, and Joan worked for the State of Oregon in Salem. After his return to the states, they embarked on an extremely full life as a couple in the United States Military. Not always fond of the hardships of military life, she was always more than adequate for the task, never one to complain, and a devoted wife and mother. Subsequently, the Williams family were stationed in almost every state in the West and for three years at Misawa AFB, Japan.

After 24 years in the USAF, retirement arrived, followed by a final move to Bend, the purchase of their first home and a second career for Howard. Joan worked part-time for a local physical testing lab and established interest and hobbies that were to be a source of enjoyment for years to come. A regular patron of the arts, she especially enjoyed live theatre, local symphonic and choral performances, and visiting bands of all stripes and color. She continued her love of hiking, through Bend Parks and Recreation, often hiking in two groups each week and for a duration of close to 25 years. Camping included regular trailer camping with immediate family and her parents, plus traditional annual visits to Stehekin in Washington state; Belknap Hot Springs, Detroit Reservoir, and the Oregon Coast. A generous woman, Joan took her children to New Zealand for a two-week vacation in 2005, and to Anchorage, Alaska, and surrounding points of interest in 2011.

Above all, Joan was a devoted disciple of Jesus Christ, with all the attendant struggles, and a faithful member of Grace Presbyterian Church. She liked to worship, favored hymns, and enjoyed theology of the Reformed persuasion. A wise steward with all that the Lord provided, she was often a crafty “stealth� giver.

Joan will be greatly missed by her three children, Kay of Bend, Barry of Bend, and Brian of Portland, OR; her sister, Judy Setzer of Bend; and four grandchildren, Athena Booth (Robert) of Austin, TX, David Williams of Bend, Lorelei Anderson (Trey) of Nampa, ID, and Jonathan Williams (Leah and great-grandson, Andrew) of Bend. She was preceded in death by parents, Paul and Dorothy Lee Bale and husband, Howard. Joan departed from us on her wedding anniversary, Services will be held Saturday, September 15, at noon at Grace Presbyterian Church, 62162 Hamby Rd., Bend. Memorial donations may be made to the Redmond Humane Society or Grace Presbyterian Church.

T W Rangers recover 2 bodies on Mount Rainier glacier

By Gene Johnson The Associated Press

The Colville Confederated Tribes / The Associated Press

A gray wolf rests on the Colville Indian Reservation near Nespelem, Wash. Since the wolves began returning to Washington five years ago, strife between ranchers and wildlife advocates has simmered.

Conflict over wolves, livestock escalating in Washington

By Craig Welch The Seattle Times

SEATTLE — Marksmen and trappers returned to the woods of northeast Washington this week, hoping to kill more of the gray wolves that have been taking down a ranch’s cows.

Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife sharpshooters are armed with orders to take out up to four of the protected predators in the so-called Wedge Pack, which straddles the Canadian border in Stevens County.

But after a grueling summer of losses for a pair of cattlemen already hostile to Canis lupus — and a maddening month for wildlife advocates suspicious that ranchers also want to stoke anti-wolf fever — few think that will resolve this festering standoff.

Five years after wild wolves began returning to Washington, a long-simmering conflict between wolves and livestock has exploded with a vengeance. And by most accounts it couldn’t have happened in a worse place.

“I don’t know that I’d call this the perfect storm, but we have a substantial problem,” said Phil Anderson, director of the state Department of Fish and Wildlife.

Since midsummer, at least 12 cows or calves belonging to Diamond M Ranch owners Len McIrvin and his son, Bill McIrvin, have been killed or injured — two of them just this week. While outside experts aren’t convinced all were attacked by wolves, some clearly were.

But the nearby terrain is so vast, steep, and thick with trees and underbrush that easy solutions aren’t obvious.

The senior McIrvin, whose family has grazed cattle on public and private land in northeast Washington for more than a century, has long expressed disdain for wolves.

He has been unwilling to accept compensation for his dead animals, fearing that would legitimize the predator’s protection. At times he has urged state and local politicians to do what they can to make sure the entire pack is wiped out.

“Wolves have never been compatible with raising livestock,” McIrvin said in an interview. “They have no enemy other than man, disease and hunger, and we’ve taken man out of the equation.”

His son, Bill McIrvin, on the other hand, has shown more willingness to find a way to coexist with wolves, but with each passing week his pessimism mounts.

“I’d like to find common ground, but at this point it doesn’t look good,” the younger McIrvin said. “We just can’t operate with the kind of losses we’re seeing.”

Meanwhile, some wildlife organizations, fueled by the elder McIrvin’s intransigence, and concerns that the state is responding to political pressure he has whipped up, are pressuring the state to avoid killing wolves.

The ideological gulf frustrates Mitch Friedman, of Bellingham-based Conservation Northwest, who concedes there will be times when the state must kill wolves to pro-

“I’d love for wolves not to be a pawn in a culture war. Periodically, we’re going to need to remove wolves. They’re fecund — there’s going to be a lot of them. At some point there should probably be a hunting season of some sort.”

— Mitch Friedman, Conservation Northwest

tect Washington’s livestock industry.

But he thinks there could be a less divisive long-term solution if emotions and politics were put aside by both sides.

“I’d love for wolves not to be a pawn in a culture war,” Friedman said. “Periodically, we’re going to need to remove wolves. They’re fecund — there’s going to be a lot of them. At some point there should probably be a hunting season of some sort. On the other hand, I know ranchers who say, ‘They’re not going to go away, so we have to figure out how to live with them.’ I would love to see more of that attitude from this particular rancher.”

Wolves began recolonizing Washington in the mid-2000s, with the first confirmed pack showing up in 2008. There are eight known wolf packs around the state and another four are suspected, but not confirmed.

The bulk of those are in the state’s northeast corner, where the predators are no longer protected by the Endangered Species Act and are instead managed by the state.

Wolf-cow conflicts there grew serious in July, when several cows and calves appeared to have been attacked. State investigators examined the carcasses and determined in some cases that it was “reasonable” to presume a wolf was responsible.

In early August the state killed a wolf, but over the next several weeks more cattle were attacked. Late in the month, the state announced plans to kill up to four more, but agreed to keep the breeding pair alive, hoping instead to simply scatter the animals and reduce the pack’s size.

It wasn’t an easy task.

“The wolves have become very trap-wise,” Anderson, at Fish and Wildlife, said. “We’ve seen them paw and dig up traps without stepping in them ... these guys never cease to amaze me.”

Several environmental groups complained, arguing that state law makes clear that before a wolf is trapped or shot there must be clear, solid evidence that the animals have actually killed — not just attacked — livestock. With the Labor Day holiday approaching, the state pulled the trappers and hunters out to regroup and consider their options, but then two more calves were killed.

This time experts agreed: The puncture wounds on each calf’s hamstring clearly showed wolves were responsible. So the sharpshooters were sent back out Wednesday to resume their hunt. And then two more cows were found attacked on the McIrvins’ private land.

While the conflict is the worst the Northwest has seen

since wolves began returning, it’s not unfamiliar territory. It’s where many in the Rockies were with carnivores 15 years ago.

“My first thought is: This is complicated. It’s a tough one,” said Seth Wilson, a conservation biologist who works with the Blackfoot Challenge, a landowner-driven watershed group that tries to help resolve predator-livestock conflicts in Montana. “My other reaction: We’ve gone through this same situation, where you have livestock dispersed over a large area, with rugged terrain and limited means to monitor them, even with radio telemetry.”

Wildlife groups in Montana and elsewhere have gotten creative. They’ve set up miles and miles of electric fencing, paid for range riders to patrol grazing lands and scare wolves away, have worked to keep cows and calves paired together and have gone in quickly to remove carcasses so they don’t attract more predators. Mostly, though, they’ve communicated with ranchers enough to make clear that, with some hiccups, wolves and livestock are both here to stay and can actually coexist.

Wolves still sometimes kill cows, he said, but the frequency has dropped dramatically.

For the moment, the senior McIrvin isn’t interested. “If you put electric wire up today, the deer and elk would have it torn down tomorrow anyway,” he said. “It’s not impractical. It’s impossible.”

He said he has made concessions — putting his cows out a little later in the year so they are bigger and less vulnerable to wolves. But unlike some other ranchers, he has been unwilling to sign an agreement with the state to work together to find a solution that doesn’t involve just killing wolves.

That position, said Carter Niemeyer, one of the country’s leading wolf experts and an extrapper who is well-regarded by wolf advocates and ranchers alike, could backfire.

“Certainly there’s justification to remove problem predators. Absolutely,” Niemeyer said. But “it’s a big gamble on a livestock producer’s part to just say, ‘Leave us alone.’ It creates a perception that they are bullies and makes more people angry over public-land grazing.”

For his part, Friedman’s organization now accepts that the recent kills “trigger management responses, including lethal removal.” But killing four wolves right away appears “excessive” and Conservation Northwest hopes the state moves incrementally.

“I wish I knew what that best option was,” Friedman said.

“But we’ve talked to experts who have found options in comparable terrain elsewhere.

Folks need to find a way to make this work.”

SEATTLE — Park rangers returned to a glacier on Mount Rainier on Saturday to search for a fourth victim of a series of winter storms, a day after recovering what they presume to be the second and third bodies.

The climbers — two parties of two — vanished during unrelenting storms on the 14,410-foot volcano in midJanuary. The summer snowmelt last month revealed one of the bodies not far from the climbing route on the Muir snowfield — that of Mark Vucich, 37.

But there had been no sign of the others until Thursday, when a helicopter crew ferrying supplies to Camp Muir spotted a woman’s body hanging over the edge of a large crevasse, buried in about 5 feet of snow, near the 8,200foot level, Mount Rainier National Park spokesman Kevin Bacher said.

Climbing rangers arrived

Friday to find a snow-buried campsite, with supplies belonging to several different people strewn about the bottom of the crevasse, he said.

Aided by a helicopter, they recovered the woman’s body Friday afternoon and discovered a sleeping bag in the snow that led them to a male victim.

Officials were awaiting a medical examiner’s determination to confirm that they were two of the missing climbers from January. In addition to Vucich, of Agoura Hills, Calif., the missing were his friend Michelle Trojanowski, 30, of Atlanta; Sork “Eric” Yang, 52, of Springfield; and Seol Hee Jin, 52, of South Korea.

They were last seen by a climber who reported that all four were heading up the mountain as he descended it with the storms approaching.

Yang and Jin were in the lead, followed by Vucich and Trojanowski, on a separate rope but following the same track.

“We have suspected that as things turned ugly up there

Burglary suspect was Forest Service firefighter The Associated Press LOGAN, Utah — Two men, including a former firefighter for the U.S. Forest Service, have been arrested in connection with a burglary at the agency’s complex in Logan.

Former firefighter Michael Keller, of Eugene, and Thomas MacElwee, of Nibley, Utah, are accused of taking a trailer with a snowmobile and winter rescue equipment in the Aug.

20 burglary.

Police say investigators were able to identify Keller through security camera video. They say Keller would have known the code to get through the gate at the complex because of his former ties to the Forest Service.

Keller was arrested Thursday in Eugene, where he awaits extradition. MacElwee was arrested in Nibley.

they might have joined forces, and now we’re certain that was the case,” Bacher said.

The campsite is about onequarter mile east of, and over a ridge from, the standard climbing route, which is likely why visitors to the mountain had not seen the woman’s body earlier, Bacher said.

Though climbing gear from both groups appears to have been found together at the campsite, Vucich’s body was found some distance away, and it wasn’t clear if the fourth body would be in the immediate vicinity.

About a dozen climbing rangers spent Friday night at Camp Muir, at the 10,000-foot level, and were out early Saturday to carefully probe and dig in a grid pattern for signs of the last victim, Bacher said.

“It’s always a positive thing to find someone after so long,” Bacher said. “To come across a second body yesterday, they were pretty upbeat, and they were anxious to get back out there today.”

Report challenges federal findings on oyster farms

By Guy Kovner The Press Democrat, Santa Rosa, Calif.

Millions of commercially cultivated oysters in the Drakes Estero estuary may improve water quality and a resident colony of harbor seals may have grown accustomed to eight decades of oyster farming, a federal panel of scientists has concluded.

The scientific report challenges key findings of a National Park Service assessment of the Drakes Bay Oyster Company’s impact on the 2,500-acre estuary in the Point Reyes National Seashore in Marin County.

The National Research Council’s 53-page report concluded that there is a “moderate to high level of uncertainty” associated with most of the adverse environmental impacts cited in the Park Service assessment.

In two resource categories — water quality and harbor seals — the council’s report found a high level of uncertainty, suggesting the oyster farm’s impact could be minimal or even beneficial.

The uncertainty level for 13 of 16 categories could mean the impacts of oyster farming were “lower than those presented” in the draft environmental impact study released last year by the Park Service.

Behind the dense scientific studies lies a five-year-old battle over Drakes Bay Oyster Co.’s commercial toehold on the edge of Drakes Estero, a Pacific Ocean inlet designated

by Congress as “potential wilderness” 36 years ago.

Wilderness advocates want the mariculture operation removed, while the company’s allies — including some Marin ranchers and officials and California Sen. Dianne Feinstein — support a 10-year extension of the company’s permit.

The research council’s report, released last week, came as the permit’s Nov. 30 expiration date approaches and the Park Service works on a final version of its 500-page environmental report.

“The real issue for us is that removing the oyster company would provide a beneficial impact to the environment.”

— Neal Desai, National Parks Conservation Association

Feinstein’s legislation in 2009 gave Interior Secretary Ken Salazar sole discretion to renew the permit for the family-operated business that harvests $1.5 million worth of Pacific oysters a year from the estero.

Both sides claimed the research council report — commissioned by the Park Service and drafted by an international panel of 10 scientists — supported their views.

“Basically what’s left standing is there are no major (environmental) impacts,” said Kevin Lunny, who runs the oyster farm his family purchased in 2005.

Lunny noted the research council’s suggestion that 5 million filter-feeding oysters could cleanse 105 million gallons of estero water per day, which the report described as a potentially “beneficial ecosystem service.”

“We are thrilled they have come to that conclusion,” he said.

Lunny said the report backed his contention that oyster farming doesn’t hinder one of California’s largest harbor seal colonies. “It’s a big deal they (the scientists) are saying it,” he said.

Feinstein said the report “offers further proof that the National Park Service is using flawed science to reach a biased, unfair permit decision for the Drakes Bay Oyster Company.”

“I once again urge Secretary Salazar to look beyond the flawed science and renew the oyster farm’s lease,” she said in an e-mail.

Amy Trainer, executive director of the West Marin Environmental Action Committee, said the report found that the Park Service “used the best available science in its review

of oyster operation impacts.”

Her nonprofit group, based in Point Reyes Station, asserts that oyster farming has no place in a national park.

The research council’s conclusions support the Park Service’s determination that eliminating the oyster farm is “the environmentally preferable choice for Drakes Estero,” Trainer said.

Another wilderness advocate, Neal Desai of the National Parks Conservation Association, said the Park Service should act to “protect the West Coast’s only marine wilderness area.”

“The real issue for us is that removing the oyster company would provide a beneficial impact to the environment,” he said.

Thomas Malone, chair of the science panel and professor emeritus at the University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science, said there was sparse research on Drakes Estero and the potential impacts of oyster farming.

“The draft EIS could have done a better job of discussing how this limited data on Drakes Estero results in less definitive scientific conclusions,” Malone said in a statement.

Melanie Gunn, spokeswoman for the National Park Service at Point Reyes Seashore, declined to comment on specifics of the science report.

“We are reviewing all the relevant scientific and technical information,” Gunn said, regarding work on the final environmental assessment.

That report will be issued in the fall, she said, declining to be more specific.

Asked about the Nov. 30 expiration date for Lunny’s permit, Gunn said: “We are keeping that in mind.”

BEER & WOMEN: A match made in heaven?

Pete Erickson / The Bulletin

Central Oregon Beer Angels organizer Gina Schauland, front, and some of the club’s members gather on Aug. 31 at the Little Woody brew fest in downtown Bend.

• The Central Oregon Beer Angels get together to discuss beer in a dude-free environment

By Alandra Johnson The Bulletin

D

espite what beer commercials shown during sporting events would have you believe, beer isn’t just for dudes.

And women — surprise surprise — don’t always try to stand in the way of dudes drinking beer and having fun.

It turns out, especially in beer-rich Central Oregon, women want to be in on the fun themselves.

That is certainly the goal of a relatively new group in Bend called Central Oregon Beer Angels. The group is the brainchild of Gina Schauland, a beer lover and social media coordinator for Deschutes Brewery.

Central Oregon Beer Angels is a group of women who get together once a month (sometimes more) to learn about, taste

and enjoy beer and each other’s company.

They have sampled winter beers, paired beer with cheese, and tasted stouts alongside cupcakes.

“It’s all about fun and beer,” said Schauland.

Origins The idea for the group had been lingering in Schauland’s mind for some time. At every beer event or pub she attended, she noticed a lot of men, with a few women sprinkled in. She realized “the women I have met who are beer drinkers are pretty awesome.” She thought it would fun to have a beer group dedicated to women.

Schauland says sometimes women may feel intimidated about asking questions about beer in front of guys. This group eliminates that.

The group officially kicked off in January. Schauland spread the word among her friends and acquaintances to meet at Platypus Pub, where they would taste winter beers. More than 30 women showed up to that first meeting. “It was awesome; I felt very supported,” said Schauland.

From there, she started up a Facebook page for the group. Before long, the group had swelled to more than 100 members, with about 30 to 50 typically showing up for each event. The women range in age from their early 20s to their 60s. Schauland says there are moms and single women. What brings them together is a love of beer.

When talking about beer, some members like Schauland also talk about the feeling beer evokes.

Life is easy and luxurious at The Coeur d’Alene resort

By John Gottberg Anderson

NORTHWEST TRAVEL

For the Bulletin

COEUR D’ALENE, Idaho — Here’s one thing I learned on my recent visit to The Coeur d’Alene resort: Golf balls can float.

Okay, so perhaps your own Titleist can’t cruise over the surface of a pond at Pronghorn. Maybe your Maxfli won’t skip across the water at Crosswater.

But up here in the panhandle of north Idaho, it’s not just the balls that float. It’s the greens, as well.

More specifically, it’s the signature 14th that rolls with the waves and the wakes on

Next week: Coos Bay Coeur d’Alene Lake. Billed as the world’s only moveable floating green, this par-3 hole changes its length between 95 and 200 yards several times a week, depending upon where it is placed by a computer system.

The resort sells custommade hollow balls with just enough carry to lift them off the tee to the green with a solid drive. More often than not, the tee shots wind up short, diving into the lake with a “kerplunk.” Assuming you

do clear the water, you’ll have to hope you don’t bounce off a tree or land in a bunker on the 15,000-square-foot island. A small shuttle craft, nicknamed “The Putter,” carries golfers from the tee to the green, as there is no bridge to connect it to the rest of the course.

Now, I haven’t played the 18-hole course; but I took my turn on the driving range, located just down the lakeshore from the famous 14th.

A pyramid of floating balls stood beside me as I teed up and practiced my stroke, hitting ball after ball directly into the lake.

Surrounded by a floating boardwalk more than a half-mile long, The Coeur d’Alene resort marina reflects the twilight that falls upon Coeur d’Alene Lake.

Bailey is a cute 2 year old Terrier mix looking for his forever home.

He is an adorable little guy who loves nothing more than being with his people, whether it’s on a lap or on a walk. A home with good containment is a must because he likes to dig and can easily jump a low fence. Bailey would love a home to call his own, could that be with you?

Come to the shelter and take him for a walk today!

SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 2012 • THE BULLETIN

A & A

Urge to parent adult children usually gets chilly reception Dear Abby: Why must we walk on eggshells around our adult children? I have many friends with the same problem. Only one of them is able to open up and tell her kids how she feels.

You advised if a daughter goes out with a bum, learn to find something good about the bum. I’d like to tell that daughter the guy IS a bum, or her kids and her house are a mess. But even if I criticize politely, and say very carefully how I feel, our adult children withhold their children or themselves and there goes the relationship.

Is there hope to change this situation? My friends and I would like to know! — Walking on Eggshells Dear Walking: As a parent, your instinct will always be to “parent� your children. But after children become adults, the kind of advice you would like to deliver becomes less welcomed — and the “kids� no longer have to listen or abide by it. I’m not sure what it is they are doing (or not doing) that you would like to criticize, but if it has something to do with their children, remember that parenting styles have changed with time.

It’s regrettable, but many families are no longer close in the way that families were a few decades ago, when the generations needed each other for baby-sitting and other kinds of help. But once the dynamics have been set, the pattern is difficult to change unless all parties are open to it — and even then it can take professional help.

Dear Abby: Our son, an honors student, was accepted to a prestigious Ivy League school.

However, the amount of tuition was so exorbitant that the burden on our family would have been financially devastating.

Since the day I made the call to turn down the university’s offer, my wife, “Jenna,� has refused to touch me or respond to me in any way. She talks to me rarely and has refused to make love for more than three years.

I have gone to marriage counseling (she refused to go), sought help from my clergy

This year you approach life with newfound determination and seriousness. You often have inspired ideas and follow through on them.

You aim for what you want, and many times, especially from June on, you see your desires become a reality. If you are single, you could meet your next sweetie through your work and/or a friend. If you are attached, the two of you decide to make a greater commitment to each other sometime near your next birthday. You can count on CANCER. 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) HHH You might be happiest staying at home. You can’t really make plans around a key individual who seems to be in a funk. Your instincts carry you through a problem. Avoid someone who pushes you too hard. Tonight: Stay close to home.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHH Be direct in your dealings, and others will be able to respond in an authentic manner. You need a break from your routine, as you could be tired of doing the same old thing.

A person from a distance insists that you follow through on what he or she wants. Tonight: Visit with a neighbor or relative.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHH You might find that you feel funky later in the afternoon. If this is the case, just do what you must, and you will free up some extra time.

Once your schedule is more open, you might know what you want and feel better. Tonight: Your treat.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH By midmorning, you feel far more energized. Someone who sees that change might want to hold you back. This person’s insecurity might be emerging. Avoid a disagreement or a power play. You do not need to react. Tonight: Go for what you want.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH You might be off to a great start in the morning, but soon enough you will be ready to curl up with the Sunday paper. A conversation involving a sibling or someone in your immediate circle could be touchy. Be sensitive to this person’s needs. Tonight: Get some

TODAY DEAR ABBY and repeatedly tried to get my wife to have a relationship. Although I am not a perfect husband, I have tried to make our marriage work. Jenna continues to treat me with contempt and refuses to refer to me in front of our three children by any name except “he.�

Do you see any hope for me continuing this relationship? I hate to end this marriage before all of our kids leave home. — Sad in Syracuse Dear Sad: Did you discuss the phone call with your wife before you made it, so you could explore other possible options together or did you call without consulting her? If it’s the latter, she had a right to be angry. However, to punish one’s spouse for three years seems grossly excessive. And because she won’t accept counseling you will have to decide whether to accept the status quo, because you appear to have been physically and emotionally abandoned.

Dear Abby: A friend from work has a boyfriend who constantly cheats and lies to her.

She cries to me about it, and I can’t help but get annoyed because it happens over and over.

A week later, she loves him again and forgives him.

She wants me and my boyfriend to go out on a double date. How can I avoid it without hurting her feelings? Should I tell her the truth, that I want nothing to do with that dirtbag, or say I’m “too busy�? — Shoulder To Cry On in Florida Dear Shoulder: Don’t call her boyfriend a dirtbag or any other names, although they are probably accurate. Just thank her for thinking of it but tell her that as much as you like her, knowing how he has treated her, you wouldn’t be able to look him in the eye. — Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

extra R and R. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Wherever you go, you can count on being noticed. You might believe that someone is being rather controlling. Let this person have his or her way right now. Go off and do what you want. Do not play into a loved one’s identity crisis. Tonight: Only what you want.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHH You might want to make a point, but at what cost? You could be rather serious when dealing with others. Your judgment will not be welcome, though your caring means a lot to this person. Be understanding. Tonight: Dinner with an older friend or family member.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHHH A loved one enjoys getting together with you for brunch.

You could feel pushed, but enjoy yourself anyway. A spontaneous outing in the afternoon could be great fun. Get out of your immediate environment. Tonight: If you can dream it up, why not make it so?

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Others continue to dominate your plans, but make it your pleasure.

A friend seems dearly in need of being cheered up. You might need to skip over a challenge or avoid a control game. Deal with a loved one directly. Tonight: Do what you want.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHHH You want to respond to key individuals, but first you have to make a must appearance involving work or an older friend. Your caring meets your sense of responsibility. Do not react to a controversial individual.

Tonight: Take care of yourself first.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH You convert your interests in order to be more nurturing to others. How you see someone could change, as you have to deal with his or her controlling side. You might just opt to ignore this person. Tonight: Get a head start on tomorrow.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHHH Let your creative side take over. Others perk up when they see you like this. Invite friends and family over for an early dinner or another fun idea. One friend continues to be extraordinarily pushy. Tonight: Pretend it is Friday night. Š 2012 by King Features Syndicate

THE BULLETIN • SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 2012

Coeur d’Alene Continued from C1 “Fly balls” dove like cormorants, but “line drives” skipped several times like flat stones.

At other golf courses, water is something to be avoided at all costs. At Coeur d’Alene, it’s the perfect practice medium. Yard markers on buoys indicate the length of drives, although those numbers can be deceiving since the hollow balls don’t fly especially far.

But loft and direction are easily measured — there’s no disguising a wicked slice — and a tiny trawler easily gathers the balls by dragging a net across the water’s surface.

After a half-hour of watching the golf balls get wet, it was time to immerse myself.

Adjacent to the golf course, at the lake’s edge beneath the resort’s newly opened Hagadone Events Center, an infinity pool extends almost imperceptibly above the sandy beach, its water at least 20 degrees warmer than that of the lake itself.

I swam a few laps, relaxed with a cool beverage, then jumped aboard “The Eagle” for a two-mile, water-borne shuttle around Tubbs Hill and back to resort central.

Seen from Coeur d’Alene Lake, the resort’s 18-story main tower rises above a 372-slip marina with its blue canvas roofs. Beverly’s restaurant stands out on the seventh floor of the tower, its black-shaded windows offering diners a panoramic view of the north Idaho lake.

The 14th hole of the Coeur d’Alene Resort Golf Course boasts the world’s only moveable floating green.

Coeur d’Alene WASHINGTON

The resort No destination resort in the Pacific Northwest combines comfort and sophistication — including a luxurious spa, fine dining options and recreational amenities — so well as The Coeur d’Alene. Nestled on the north shore of its 25-milelong namesake lake, the resort was built in 1986 and immediately became the catalyst for the gentrification of the town of Coeur d’Alene (pronounced core-duh-LANE).

“Downtown took off with a character of its own,” recalled Bill Reagan, the resort’s general manager since it welcomed its first guests. “It’s as if the hotel created a center from which Coeur d’Alene could grow.”

After a 413-mile, 7½-hour drive northeast from Bend, via the Tri-Cities and Spokane, my traveling companion and I turned off Interstate 90 in the late afternoon and approached the hotel via a circular drive off Sherman Avenue. A team of valets and bellmen was there to greet us, unloading our luggage, parking our car and guiding us through the elegant, contemporary lobby to the long front desk, where we were quickly checked in for a three-night stay.

From the balcony of our lakeview room in the resort’s landmark 18-story tower, we looked down upon a 372slip marina surrounded by a floating boardwalk well over a half-mile long. Beyond, we could see powerboats, fishing vessels, sailboats, jet skis and even parasailors upon deep, serpentine Coeur d’Alene Lake, before it disappeared into heavily forested hills.

The resort has seven restaurants, and we availed ourselves of the offerings at four of them during our stay.

Beverly’s, on the seventh floor of the tower, is its crown jewel, a five-star restaurant with a $2 million wine inventory. (It’s so extensive that it even stocks Annie Green Springs for more pedestrian tastes.)

We were joined by another couple for dinner at Beverly’s one night. Chef Tyler Schwenk persuaded our quartet to share a “shellfish tower” — prawns, scallops, mussels, oysters, lobster and king crab — before we even got to our main course: ancho chili-glazed lamb for me, pan-seared Muscovy duck for my companion.

On other evenings, we had an Asian fusion meal at the

Bonsai Bistro and cedar-plank salmon at the Cedars Floating Restaurant, both off-property but readily accessible from the hotel. We had breakfasts in the Dockside coffeehouse, a lunch by the golf course and drinks one evening on the Lake View Terrace, where we were joined by former Bend wine-shop owner Chris Oatman, now a Coeur d’Alene resident.

Every Friday

Around ‘CdA’ On previous visits to north Idaho, I have used Coeur d’Alene — often referred to merely as “CdA” — as a base from which to explore the panhandle region. And there’s a lot to see here.

To the east, toward Montana, Interstate 90 runs through a series of historic towns, including Kellogg and Wallace, which once made this region a major silver-mining center.

To the north are more lakes, large and small, including massive Lake Pend Oreille (pronounced pond-oh-RAY), so deep that the U.S. Navy conducts sonar experiments in its waters, but so alluring that the town of Sandpoint, on its north shore, has helped to bury a recent history of rightwing radicalism by welcoming scores of artists who are anything but radical.

West of Coeur d’Alene, a series of towns spill across the Washington state line toward metropolitan Spokane, 30 miles distant. Together they essentially triple the city’s population of 45,000, making it the second-largest metropolitan area in Idaho after Boise.

The southern half of Coeur d’Alene Lake is embraced by the sprawling Coeur d’Alene Indian Reservation. For centuries before explorers of European ancestry arrived, Salish-speaking Indians made a home here in the foothills of the Bitterroot Range. FrenchCanadian fur trappers, frustrated by the tribe’s astuteness in trading (they wouldn’t swap valuable furs for cheap, shiny trinkets), declared that they had “coeurs d’alênes,” or

“hearts like awls.” The name stuck.

A great way to get out and about from Coeur d’Alene, and get exercise in the process, is to rent a bicycle from ROW Adventures. From its head offices in a corner of the shopping plaza attached to The Coeur d’Alene resort, owner Peter Grubb has expanded offerings beyond whitewater rafting to include a wide variety of international water and land adventures.

Where Buyers And Sellers Meet

From previous page We took an easy 15-mile ride along the northern lake shore, following the North Idaho Centennial Trail to its eastern terminus at Higgens Point. There were a few ups and downs, but the route was mostly level, giving us glimpses of parks, fishing piers and local beaches.

Spa day Back at the resort, we weren’t quite finished with our day’s exercise regimen. Forested Tubbs Hill, which rises 375 feet above the lake shore and divides the resort from an older residential area at Sanders Beach, is a 135-acre municipal park laced with well-trodden dirt trails. We chose one that circled the thumb of land, running about two miles past secluded inlets and beneath squalling ospreys’ nests.

Then we returned to the resort for spa treatments.

Spa Coeur d’Alene is one of the finest spa facilities that I have been pleased to enjoy during my travels. Opened in 2006 at a cost of $10 million, the 15,000-square-foot spa features 21 treatment rooms on two levels. Its staff offers massages, facial treatments, manicures and pedicures, skin therapy, reflexology and other services. My deep-tissue massage left me feeling rejuvenated, and my traveling companion thoroughly enjoyed her “Coeur (heart) stone massage.”

The spa was designed by Tag Galyean, a famed resort architect also known for the spas at California’s Lodge at Pebble Beach, Colorado Springs’ Broadmoor and West Virginia’s Greenbrier. Galyean made extensive use of red cedar and river rock in the design, but water was his focal point, from the broad lake views in relaxation rooms to a series of interior waterfalls that impart a sense of the natural environment to all corners of the spa.

For me, a highlight was the hydrotherapy that followed my massage. Spa Coeur d’Alene has installed unique, computer-operated therapeutic showers with 18 showerheads and varying temperatures that work on six different parts of the body.

The next day — our second full one at the resort — we traveled to the golf club.

Launches leave the resort marina every half hour through

the day, unloading passengers at a long pier after a two-mile lake cruise. In addition to the golf course and practice facilities, pro shop and Floating Green Restaurant, this is the location of the infinity pool and the Events Center.

Opened in July 2011, the 7,000-square-foot Hagadone Events Center was designed to host events of up to 600 guests.

Its beautiful Outdoor Celebration Garden has quickly become one of the most popular venues for weddings in north Idaho.

For visitors who want to get out on Coeur d’Alene Lake but who don’t have particular interest in golf, chartered lake cruises and hourly motorboat rentals are available at the marina. And just down the lake shore, in City Park on the west side of the resort, concessionaires offer sailboat rides and parasailing.

The park is also a popular playground for CdA families and young adults, especially in summer. On our visit, a troupe of young jugglers from the city’s Sorensen Magnet School of the Arts and Humanities was performing tricks with fire and knives that I would never have trusted a 10-yearold to attempt.

A shellfish tower — featuring lobster and oysters along with prawns, scallops and mussels — adorns a table at Beverly’s. The Coeur d’Alene resort’s fine-dining restaurant has a $2 million wine inventory and a menu with entrees in the $40 range.

wanted more shopping, so we built a shopping plaza across the street.”

Hagadone said he visits leading resorts all over North America, looking for ideas to improve the offerings at The Coeur d’Alene resort.

“We’re not on the beaten path,” he understated. “We’ve got to try harder.

“We knew we had one of the great freshwater lakes in the world, and that, of course, is the anchor. We try and utilize the water as much as we can, offering things that others can’t. We do a lot of meetings on our cruise boats. And during this economic downturn, when things have been tough in the hotel business, we have upgraded our facilities to compete with anybody.”

The resort bends over backward to assist visitors who fly into Spokane International Airport, Hagadone said. “It’s 30 to 40 minutes away. We’ll pick you up in our limo vans and you’ll have no need for a car while you’re here. We have the retail, the boating, the hiking, and seven restaurants where we can take you by van or boat, if you prefer.”

Besides, what golfer wouldn’t be enticed by a floating green and golf balls?

What are single parents looking for when planning family travel? Like most parents, they want minimal stress and maximum time together. Here are some possibilities: • Consider a farm vacation.

Slow down at Feather Down Farm, one of three working farms in the United States and 50 in Europe that welcome families interested in learning about sustainable farm practices, healthy eating and life with chickens, goats and lambs. A parent might head out for a hike or settle in with a book, while the kids learn to churn butter or collect eggs for breakfast. Spacious tents, furnished with authentic detail, offer a private room for adults as well as a cozy “cupboard bed” where kids can tuck away for the night.

• International adventure.

Single mom Michelle Kingsley O’Neill and her 13year-old triplet sons spent a month exploring Ecuador and brushing up on their Spanish skills. With a rental home on the beach in the coastal town of Olon as their home base, the family of four took language classes and enjoyed side trips to Cuenca

and other sites of interest.

They also sampled local cuisine and learned to surf and zip-line. The result? With high school on the horizon, O’Neill agreed to the boys’ request for home-schooling this year so they could fit more travel into their education plan.

• An all-inclusive deal.

Single parents checking into the all-inclusive AAA Five Diamond Grand Velas Resorts in Riviera Maya and Riviera Nayarit will have the single supplement fee waived when traveling with their children. In addition, one child will stay at a 50 percent discount. Expect a state-of-the-art kids’ club and airport transfers, as well as day and evening beach, eco and sporting activities that will engage adults and children throughout their seaside vacation.

• Ride the rails. Train excursions provide one parent traveling with kids a relaxed and stress-free opportunity to enjoy one another’s company. On board Via Rail, Canada’s premier passenger rail service, kids will love visiting the panoramic dome in the Skyline or Park car for a unique vista. They also can join other junior explorers for movies and games.

Duane Hagadone The visionary behind The Coeur d’Alene resort is Duane Hagadone, a Coeur d’Alene native who celebrated his 80th birthday on Labor Day. Taking over as publisher of the local newspaper when his father died in 1958, Hagadone expanded his holdings in marine and hospitality enterprises, where he has amassed an estimated net worth of $800 million. But he continues to live in a lakeside estate where his 60-foot, state-of-the-art sailing yacht, the Sizzler, has a permanent home.

“Years ago, there was a small Best Western property beside the lake in Coeur d’Alene,” he recalled in a telephone conversation. “I always thought it could make a wonderful resort. When I had an opportunity to buy it, I did.

“We were always great believers in surveying our customers as to what they would like,” he said. “Over time, it became apparent that they needed more things to do here.

It became evident that a golf course would help us put heads on pillows. A world-class spa would do the same. People

SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 2012 • THE BULLETIN

By Mike Hale New York Times News Service

Shed no tears for “The Good Wife.”

Yes, it’s disappointing that excellent CBS series was shut out of the nominations for the outstanding drama Emmy this year, when all six slots went to shows on cable or PBS. Its producers — along with the makers of every other drama series on the big-five broadcast networks — will be left to root for their acting nominees and politely applaud when “Mad Men” wins for the fifth year in a row.

But the issue isn’t whether “Boardwalk Empire,” “Breaking Bad,” “Downton Abbey,” “Mad Men,” “Homeland” and “Game of Thrones” are all better than “The Good Wife,” although for what it’s worth the answer is no. (Even in a slightly down season it was more deserving than at least three of those.)

If anything, “The Good Wife” benefits from the false perception that it’s the lone bastion of quality on the broadcast networks. The real victims of cable envy — the notion that creativity and distinction in TV drama now lie entirely with cable channels like AMC, HBO and Showtime and their model of short seasons, serialized stories and writer-producer autonomy — are the shows that don’t get the credit they deserve because the attention of critics, and the TV industry itself, is so firmly focused elsewhere.

Best new shows Showtime’s “Homeland” is generally acknowledged as the best new show of last season, and I won’t argue with that.

But after “Homeland” the best new shows were all broadcast offerings: “Person of Interest” on CBS, “Grimm” and “Prime Suspect” on NBC, “Pan Am” on ABC. (“Suspect” and “Pan Am” were canceled, victims in part of increasing pressure from cable and other video platforms.)

Conforming to network standards and schedules and, in large part, traditional epi-

Episodic storytelling may not be fashionable at the moment, but there’s a visceral appeal to wellmade, self-contained, single-sitting stories that offer the comfort of familiarity while constantly finding new ways to tweak their genre conventions. sodic plotting, shows like these — along with other underrated (although in some cases quite popular) broadcast shows like “Fringe,” “Nikita,” “NCIS,” “Supernatural” and, yes, “The Good Wife” — demonstrate that there’s plenty of room for creativity in the broadcast model — commercials, formulas and all.

Conventional wisdom Looking at broadcast shows that deserve more respect spurs some thoughts about the current conventional wisdom on TV drama.

For instance, there are worse things than telling a story every week. Or to put it another way, there’s a reason “Law & Order” was on the air for 20 seasons (and “Law & Order: SVU” is about to begin its 14th). Episodic storytelling may not be fashionable at the moment, but there’s a visceral appeal to well-made, self-contained, single-sitting stories that offer the comfort of familiarity while constantly finding new ways to tweak their genre conventions. It’s why shows like “NCIS” and “Bones” that get little critical love draw large audiences.

There can be creative advantages to the episodic model too, even if you grant that serialized, short-season cable shows will probably be more unified expressions of their creators’ ideas. An episodic show is more likely to improve as its producers get a sense of

what works and what doesn’t.

That happened with “Prime Suspect”: Even in its truncated 13-week run, it became better as the writers appeared to get in sync with Maria Bello’s tough, uncompromising performance. That kind of adjustment is rare on short-run cable dramas, where entire seasons are written and often filmed before the first episode is shown.

The discipline of telling a complete story each week can just as easily spur creative thinking as enforce dull repetition. “Person of Interest,” typical of the broadcast shows that combine episodic and serial elements, kept coming up with intriguing and dryly funny weekly stories that fed into, but didn’t depend on, its overarching conspiracy plot. The writers’ job was easier, because a lot of thought had been put into both the ingenious premise — a pair of freelance crime fighters secretly exploiting a government computer surveillance system — and the relationships among the motley crew of cops, spies and technocrats who are the heroes.

The longer seasons of broadcast shows, even when they’re partly serialized, also help them avoid the Chinese-menu structure of series like “Game of Thrones” and “True Blood,” in which so many subplots have to be resolved in so few weeks that the stories are broken down into micro-scenes, jumping from place to place and character to character in a way that saps momentum.

As models go, David Chase and “The Sopranos” on HBO are pretty hard to beat (although Chase managed to do pretty good work — “I’ll Fly Away,” “Northern Exposure” — on the broadcast networks too). Not every creator is that capable, however, and when a heavily serialized concept doesn’t work — say, HBO’s “Luck,” before its horse issues came to light — it’s likely to be a terminal problem, because there isn’t the foundation of competent weekly storytelling to hold the series up.

THE BULLETIN • SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 2012 Central Oregon Beer Angels Jenny Brown, left, and organizer Gina Schauland sip beer and chat during the recent Little Woody brew festival in downtown Bend.

Pete Erickson The Bulletin

Angels Continued from C1 For instance, every time Schauland drinks Black Butte Porter, it “feels like home.”

“There are lots of emotions behind beer,” she said.

That could explain how the group works. Every member loves beer, so conversation can start there. But then it goes deeper. Schauland compares the group to a book club. The club may start off talking about a book, but through that, members end up learning more about each other and forming strong ties.

Women and beer Women prefer fruity, light, summery beers. That’s the stereotype, anyway. But it isn’t true, according to Schauland and the other Beer Angels.

Nonetheless, she says, there are “still definitely stereotypes.”

Like a server delivering a glass of wine and an IPA to a table will assume the woman ordered the wine and the man the beer.

“Everyone’s taste buds are different,” said Schauland.

“We don’t like to be told what to drink.”

Schauland calls herself a “malty girl” and prefers oatmeal porters. Member Kali Baker loves sour beers and fresh-hop beers.

Flavor — and the discussion of flavor — is a big focus for the group. Schauland says this is one way that female beer lovers may differ from male beer lovers. Beer talk with women nearly always comes down to flavor: Does it have chocolate?

Is it hoppy? Whereas, she says some beer discussions with men, including her husband, who is also a brewer, can tend to become more scientific and focus on the process.

Breweries, big and small, aren’t necessarily thinking about female beer drinkers.

“Not a lot of people are marketing to women,” said Schauland.

Ginger Johnson, founder of the Southern Oregon-based business Women Enjoying Beer, suggests breweries of all sizes focus on flavor when marketing their beer. She calls many of the current beer marketing campaigns “severely outdated,” especially considering that “women in America make the vast majority of all purchases,” although with the case of beer, they may not be the end consumers.

“We’re all different. We all

like flavor,” said Johnson. “Just put the flavors on the table.”

She says even smaller breweries don’t necessarily get it right.

For instance, Bend’s Boneyard Beer has a light-bodied wheat ale created “with the ladies in mind,” called Girl Beer, according to its website. Johnson calls that insulting.

“There’s no such thing as women’s beer or men’s beer.

That’s a bunch of hooey,” said Johnson.

She doesn’t like to hear people say they don’t like beer, seeing as how there are so many different styles and flavors. She feels they just haven’t been introduced to the right beer.

“I never hear someone say, ‘Oh, I don’t like wine.’”

Beer Angels The group meets the second Wednesday of each month.

This month the Beer Angels plan to pair Mexican beer with ceviche.

Each meeting typically includes some kind of beer education segment. They frequently travel to different breweries and hear from local brewers.

The group has gone to Deschutes Brewery and sampled beer spiked with different “off” flavors. This helps them understand what can go wrong during the brewing process and helps educate their palates.

One of the group’s most popular events was perhaps the simplest outing. All of the members met at the base of Pilot Butte State Park. Each one brought a 22-ounce beer or growler filled with a beer to share. They carried their beers to the top, watched the sunset, drank beer, and then headed back down. Schauland recalls laughing, singing songs and enjoying some snacks her fellow members brought along.

Plans for the group will

change a bit in the coming year as it becomes a little more formal. Starting in 2013, the group will have an official tax ID number, will elect officers and create bylaws. The group will also start charging a membership fee and issue membership cards (hopefully tied to discounts). Schauland says the club also wants to raise money and team with a local charity that helps women (they are still deciding which charity to adopt).

In October, the Beer Angels will probably focus on freshhop beers. Schauland hopes to have different local brewers on a panel to talk about the process and flavors. In November they plan to have a potluck that will focus on cooking with beer and pairing food with beer. In December, the group will taste winter beers.

Baker loves the camaraderie of the group as well as the educational component.

Lindsay Duffy, a cook at Anthony’s, moved to Bend in March after falling in love with the town during a “beer-cation.” She is a big beer lover and appreciates its variety. “You can go from a really, really hoppy IPA to a really chocolatey stout.” She says there is still the perception that beer is a man’s drink and wine is a woman’s drink.

Duffy is also a member of the local homebrewing club, which is made up of almost all men.

She thinks it is interesting to be a member of both groups. Most of the men are very supportive of the group. “Most of the guys think it’s pretty cool.”

In general, Schauland says, most men who hear about the group are incredibly supportive. “Guys are always saying, ‘If we wear a dress, can we come?’”

Leap, get your hair wet to stay fit and young

By Pam LeBlanc Cox Newspapers

AUSTIN, Texas — Call me an overgrown kid, but the idea of sitting on a towel while the little ones soar off the diving board perfecting cannonballs makes me a little sad.

I’d rather be leaping right alongside them.

Just because you no longer eat Lucky Charms or use Mr. Bubble doesn’t mean you only get to watch. Not only will it remind you what it’s like to be 12 again, it’ll help keep you fit.

While sipping coffee recently with Meredith Walker, producer of the online show “Smart Girls at the Party,” we mourned the poor folks who quit bouncing on trampolines or rolling somersaults when they turned 30.

Not us.

Walker calls it the “Get Your Hair Wet” mentality.

She’s not about to lounge on the sidelines while everyone else hula dances, rock climbs or scuba dives.

It’s a philosophy that shines through her work on “Smart Girls,” hosted by her friend, comedian Amy Poehler. The show highlights girls “who are changing the world by being themselves.”

One recent episode featured a young Austin triathlete.

Others have featured pintsized yogis and budding musicians. (Check it out at www.smartgirlsattheparty. com).

“Playing is the best way to

keep the truest part of yourself alive,” Walker says. “I go to Deep Eddy and see so many adults there who only go in waist deep. I say get your hair wet. Play! Frolic!

You don’t lose your turn — it’s always your turn. Playing is ageless.”

That same mind-set has permeated my life. I want to join in. I don’t care if I look like a fool — and I often do.

I learned to run a slalom course on water skis when I was 41. Since then, I’ve tried windsurfing, flying on a trapeze, paddling an outrigger canoe and surfing. I tried out for the Texas Rollergirls when I was 44, ran my first marathon when I was 45, started practicing yoga when I was 46 and swam 28 miles around Manhattan Island as part of a relay when I was 47.

This year, I entered my first trail running race, a 25kilometer jaunt through Big Bend National Park. It didn’t matter that I was so slow that half the field passed me. It only mattered that I had fun and got some exercise.

In the past year I also started horseback riding, something I hadn’t done since I was a teenager. And I even tried pole vaulting.

Walker keeps her hair wet by stand-up paddling, riding a personal watercraft and hiking. For her birthday this year, she and her boyfriend went to Jumpoline, where they were the only adults bouncing on trampolines like popcorn on a hot skil-

let. “We jumped and fell and got our hair wet with sweat,” Walker says.

It’s not just us. I watched mesmerized recently as a 40something man parked his car, unloaded a skateboard and prepared to rocket down a very steep hill. He definitely got his hair wet. (But I worried for his safety!)

I checked with TeamTexas swim coach Keith Bell, a sports consultant and retired sports psychologist, to get his thoughts on wet hair. He told me that doing the same thing all the time can cause synaptic rutting.

“It seems to be that it’s good for the brain to go different ways, whether it’s taking a different route or doing different things,” Bell says.

We know exercise helps keep the brain healthy. Apparently, mixing up that exercise adds to that benefit.

“You commonly hear it’s good for the brain to learn to speak a different language or pick up an instrument,” Bell says. “I think it’s the same for exercise.”

Challenging your body with different things keeps your muscles surprised and your mind engaged. “Variety in life is nice — living life and exploring different things instead of going through the same thing every day,” Bell says.

TENNIS: U.S. OPEN

CYCLING: MASTERS ROAD NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS Next up at nationals

Murray into final; women delayed NEW YORK — It’s hard to imagine that a final four that consists of the Nos. 2, 3, 4 and 6 seeds would be considered a surprise, but that’s the state of the men’s semifinals at the 2012 U.S. Open.

It was the first time in 33 Grand Slam events in which neither Roger Federer nor Rafael Nadal reached the semifinal round, although the cast of remaining characters was hardly an obscure one.

After a rain delay of more than an hour, Olympic gold medalist Andy Murray of Britain, the No. 3 seed, and sixth-seeded Tomas Berdych of the Czech Republic endured windy conditions that blew service tosses, hats, debris and even furniture haphazardly around the court Saturday.

Murray handled the tricky conditions better to pull out a 5-7, 6-2, 6-1, 7-6 (7) victory.

Murray, a finalist at Wimbledon this year, will play in the second U.S. Open final of his career, seeking his first major championship.

With more rain in the forecast, which caused the women’s final to be postponed until today, the second semifinal between defending champion Novak Djokovic of Serbia, the No. 2 seed, against No. 4 David Ferrer of Spain was suspended with Ferrer leading 5-2 in the first set. They will resume play this morning.

The 2012 USA Cycling Masters Road National Championships, held in locations around Central Oregon, started Wednesday and conclude today. Visit www.usacycling.org for more information.

TODAY • Criterium: Men 60 and older, and women 50 and older, 9 a.m. (final race of day starts at 3:30 p.m.).

The championships conclude with a day of racing in Bend’s NorthWest Crossing neighborhood (see map, D4).

Manager Davey Johnson made the announcement Saturday morning with the Nationals holding the best record in the majors. He said the media attention surrounding the innings limit for the 24-year-old right-hander was affecting the pitcher.

“I just told Stephen that his year is over.

He’s had a great year. I know what he’s growing through,” Johnson said.

“The media hype on this thing has been unbelievable. I feel it’s as hard for him as it would be anybody to get mentally, totally committed in the ballgame. And he’s reached his innings limit. So we can get past this and talk about other things for a change.”

Johnson said Strasburg was “emotional” about the decision to end his season immediately. A day earlier, the overall No. 1 pick from the 2009 draft matched a career low by lasting only three innings against Miami.

Strasburg went 15-6 with a 3.16 ERA in his first full season following elbow-ligament replacement surgery on Sept. 3, 2010. He struck out 197 in 159 1⁄3 innings.

EUGENE — ll the stars were in the game — yet Oregon could not find the end zone. It was like Fresno State had found the off switch on one of the most prolific offenses in college football.

What was supposed to be a blowout, and was in the first half, had suddenly become a two-touchMARK down game.

MORICAL And so, the Ducks sputtered to an unimpressive 42-25 victory over Fresno State Saturday at Autzen Stadium, in a game that left a bit of uncertainty about No. 4 Oregon.

One touchdown in the second half with all the starters in? The same Duck team that cruised to a 35-6 halftime lead, racking up 383 yards of offense in the first half, had just 149 yards in the second half and lost three fumbles.

• Optimism returns to Corvallis after Oregon State’s season-opening win CORVALLIS — ike Riley walked into the interview room at Valley Center wearing something not often seen in recent years: an easy smile.

Just minutes earlier, his Oregon State team was engulfed by an emotional sea of orange-clad students and fans celebrating on the field of Reser Stadium after the Beavers pulled off their 10-7 upset

ZACK HALL of No. 13 Wisconsin.

For an OSU program that has struggled so much in the past two seasons, there could not have been a more cathartic moment.

“That felt good,” Riley said with

that same grin. “That felt like it should be.”

All those Oregon State worries were boxed up and shipped on a charter flight back to Madison, Wis. One team displayed a dominating defense, and a knack for making big plays at the right time.

One team struggled to run the ball and made ill-timed mistakes.

Mountain View runners claim wins at Prineville race

Ryan Brennecke / The Bulletin

Bend’s McKenzie Bell (335) leads the pack through a small stream shortly after starting the Jere Breese Memorial Ranch Stampede in Prineville on Saturday.

Bulletin staff report PRINEVILLE — After a successful trial run last season, the Jere Breese Memorial Ranch Stampede officially took off Saturday with more than 200 high school runners competing at the cross-country scramble held about a mile east of Prineville at the Breese family ranch.

Mountain View’s Dakota Thornton won the boys race — which crossed the Ochoco Creek twice and traversed a flooded pasture — in 17 minutes, 1 second in what could have been a photo finish.

Bend High’s Caleb Hoffman, Mountain View’s Gabriel Wyllie, and Crook County’s Grayson Munn placed second, third and fourth, respectively, in the same time.

The Cougars’ Sage Hassell claimed the girls race in 20:00, beating the Lava Bears’ Jenna Mattox (20:01) and her teammate Madison Leapaldt (20:01) in another close race.

PREP CROSS-COUNTRY In addition to the 263 high school participants Saturday, 42 more runners competed in the open 5,000 and 10,000 races.

“It’s finally paying off in the second year,” said Crook County coach and race organizer Tracy Smith. “We finally got people interested in coming. … Everybody I talked too has been real positive.”

Mountain View finished atop both the girls and boys team standings. The Cougar girls edged out Bend High, 36-37, for the top spot, followed by Sisters (80 points), Redmond (98), Crook County (140) and Ridgeview (163). The Mountain View boys scored a meet-low 26 points to finish ahead of runner-up Bend (48 points) and thirdplace Sisters (69). Host Crook County (99 points), Redmond (164), Ridgeview (172) and La Pine (183) rounded out the scores.

S B Football • Modell family asks Browns to cancel tribute: Art Modell’s family has asked the Cleveland Browns not to acknowledge the former owner at today’s season opener. The Browns had planned an “appropriate recognition” for Modell, who died on Thursday at the age of 87. But Modell’s son, David, spoke to Browns president Mike Holmgren and requested the team not do anything to recognize the late owner who remains

vilified by many Cleveland fans for moving his team to Baltimore after the 1995 season.

Colleges • Dish Network to carry Pac-12 Networks: Dish Network has agreed to a multi-year deal to carry Pac-12 Networks programming. The deal announced Saturday makes Dish Network the only satellite provider to offer the Pac-12 Networks programming, which includes conference football and basketball games. Pac-12

Networks, which opened its football coverage Aug. 30, is televising 15 nonconference games and 20 Pac-12 football games this season.

Track and field • Pistorius ends Paralympics with first individual 2012 gold: Oscar Pistorius completed his groundbreaking dual-games trip to London by finally winning an individual gold, defending his Paralympic 400 meters title in the last competition in the Olympic Stadium on

Saturday. The original “Blade Runner” lost his 100 and 200 Paralympic titles this week, but eased to victory in his preferred 400 event in 46.68 seconds, more than three seconds ahead of Blake Leeper of the United States.

Cycling • Contador set for Vuelta win: Denis Menchov won the punishing 20th stage of the Spanish Vuelta while Alberto Contador kept the overall leader’s red jersey to all but clinch his second title. Menchov,

a Russian cyclist and a two-time Vuelta winner, outlasted Richie Porte of Australia on the special category climb up to Bola del Mundo to win the penultimate leg by 17 seconds in 4 hours, 48 minutes, 48 seconds. Alejandro Valverde and Joaquin Rodriguez, Contador’s closest pursuers in the general classification, finished ahead of the Spanish leader but the difference wasn’t enough to close the gap.

The 67th race ends with a largely processional 71-mile ride into Madrid today.

Nationals

NorthWest Crossing Criterium The first race of the day today begins at 9 a.m., and the last event of the day should conclude by 4:30 p.m.

High Lakes Loop Fort Clatsop Dr.

Continued from D1 “Sweet,” was how LopezOtero described capturing her second consecutive national title in the event. “I did a lot of work, and I think I’m actually in better form this year than last year. We’ve been doing a lot of work on my sprint and short efforts. It doesn’t really help in road racing, but it seemed to work today.”

Even though Bend is the designated host city for this year’s masters nationals, Saturday was the first day where the racing actually occurred in Bend. So the Central Oregon residents who turned out to watch on Saturday were able to cheer one of their own to victory on the streets of downtown Bend.

Lopez-Otero said she spent much of the event, which was abbreviated from the original 35-kilometer distance due to an early crash, tracking Debbie Milne, who was third to Lopez-Otero at masters nationals in 2011, and Cheryl Fuller-Muller, who had won the women’s 35-39 criterium a year ago and moved up to the 40-44 age group this year.

“I was just trying to sit behind them because they kept attacking, and so I just covered every, every single one they did. I just sat on their wheel,” Lopez-Otero said of her strategy.

Closing in on the finish, her plan was to be in the lead coming into the final corner — a right-hand turn from Franklin Avenue onto Wall Street — of the six-turn circuit. After passing Felicia Gomez, who had won the age division road race on Thursday, on the downhill stretch along Franklin, the only rider sitting between Lopez-Otero and her goal was eventual runner-up Jane Evely, of Carnation, Wash.

“I just tried to sprint by her and I hit the turn with a little more momentum than she did, and then started my sprint, which is exactly how I planned it,” Lopez-Otero explained.

James Paolinetti celebrates winning the USA Cycling Masters Road National Championships men’s 45-49 criterium race in downtown Bend on Saturday.

Later in the day, Jason Walker employed the exact opposite tactic as Lopez-Otero, but the end result was the same: a national championship.

Competing in the men’s 40-44 criterium, Walker, 40, went to the front of the pack about a fifth of the way into the 50K race — when he successfully attacked the small breakaway group he was in.

The Reno, Nev., resident, who won the masters nationals men’s 40-44 road race in 2011, then rode the rest of the way alone in a commanding solo performance.

“Part of the fun thing about and scary thing about criteriums is there’s crashes, so it’s always better, in my opinion, to be out in front of the race than it is to be with the dudes,” an ebullient Walker said after

the race. “That’s part of it. The other part is, I like crits and I recover quickly, so I’m good when I get in a break, so I’m always trying to get in the break if I can.”

Walker’s lead swelled to more than 20 seconds during the middle stages of the race before the peloton cut it to roughly about half that margin. But then the pack appeared to become disorganized in the chase, and Walker just powered away, finishing 19 seconds ahead of his closest opponent, Chris DeMarchi, of Chino, Calif.

“The other good thing about being in front is I get to be totally consistent and pick every line I want,” Walker explained. “What happens is they start fighting each other trying to go, and then they get

frustrated, they sit up. And when they sit up, I get a second, I get two seconds, and before you know it, things kind of start growing.”

Just before Walker’s race, while Bart Bowen did not quite match Lopez-Otero’s result, he did provide Central Oregon with another podium finish by taking third place in the men’s 45-49 criterium, which was won by James Paolinetti, of Brea, Calif.

“I’m pretty psyched,” Bowen said. “I thought today if I had a good smart ride that I could be on the podium, because it’s so much position on this course.

It’s not necessarily just about sheer sprinting power. It’s about being really heads-up and avoiding the crashes and being in the right position.”

Bowen, 45, was in just that Saturday afternoon when he slipped through the first corner of the final lap on the inside and avoided a crash.

“It was kind of my thought to try to be on the inside. I’m a small rider, so I tend to fit in that hole a little better than some, so I use that to my advantage.”

GOLF ROUNDUP

Mickelson and Singh share BMW lead The Associated Press The best in golf returned to Indiana for the first time in more than 20 years, and based on the All-Star performance that broke out Saturday in the BMW Championship, this show might leave these golfhungry fans even more mesmerized.

The last big event at Crooked Stick was the 1991 PGA Championship featuring an unknown rookie named John Daly who turned it into a one-man show of power golf.

There are no mystery guests this time.

Not with Phil Mickelson making 10 birdies, including a 6-iron on the par-3 17th that he described as a “salty little cut, back into the wind.” He had a 64 and wound up tied for the lead with Vijay Singh, who has taken only 74 putts through three rounds, but had a three-putt on the 18th hole that gave him a 69 and cost him the outright lead.

Mickelson and Singh, both in the World Golf Hall of Fame, were at 16-under 200.

Right behind them were two-time major winner Rory McIlroy and former world No. 1 Lee Westwood, followed by the likes of Adam Scott and Dustin Johnson. And only three shots behind was Tiger Woods,

who keeps getting the most out of a scrappy game and is very much in the mix going into today.

“The cream has risen to the top, hasn’t it?” Westwood said.

This follows the Deutsche Bank Championship in which McIlroy held off Louis Oosthuizen, Woods, Mickelson and Johnson. The opening week at The Barclays featured Nick Watney beating Ryder Cup pick Brandt Snedeker, Johnson and Sergio Garcia.

And now this — perhaps the strongest leaderboard in golf all year going into the final round.

How strong?

The 16 players separated by five shots have won 29 majors and 21 World Golf Championships, and four of them have been No. 1 in the world over the past decade.

“The crowd is pretty rowdy, and it’s an incredible leaderboard,” Scott said. “It’s going to be fun. I’m glad I put myself in that position.”

Singh was the dominant figure throughout the day. The 49-year-old Fijian hasn’t won on the PGA Tour in four years, and he was desperate to show that he could put

four good rounds together and end that drought.

Also on Saturday: Creamer takes lead at Kingsmill WILLIAMSBURG, Va. — Paula Creamer moved into position to end a two-year victory drought, shooting a 6-under 65 to take a two-stroke lead into the final round of the Kingsmill Championship. The ninetime LPGA Tour winner chipped in for birdie on the par-4 13th in her bogey-free round on Kingsmill’s River Course. She had a 16-under 197 total, the lowest 54hole score in the history of the event. Second-round leader Jiyai Shin was second after a 69. She also is winless since 2010.

Storm drops into 4-way tie for lead in KLM Open HILVERSUM, Netherlands — England’s Graeme Storm blew a five-stroke lead midway through the third round and dropped into a four-way tie for the KLM Open lead. Storm finished with a 1-under 69 to match Spain’s Pablo Larrazabal and Gonzalo Fernandez-Castano and Scotland’s Scott Jamieson at 12 under. Larrazabal had a 64, and Fernandez-Castano and Jamieson shot 66.

MOTOR SPORTS ROUNDUP

Bowyer wins, Gordon beats Busch for Chase The Associated Press RICHMOND, Va. — With his season essentially on the line, Jeff Gordon used a vintage drive to rally his way into NASCAR’s championship chase.

The 41-year-old Gordon battled an illhandling car early in Saturday night’s race, then took off at the end to finish second to race winner Clint Bowyer at Richmond International Raceway. He wrestled the final berth in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship away from Kyle Busch.

Busch finished 16th, and Gordon grabbed the 12th spot in the Chase field by a mere three points. Team owner Joe Gibbs met Busch on pit road and leaned into the car window to console the angry driver.

“We missed. That’s it. Plain and simple,” said Busch, adding Gibbs told him, “’Handle it the right way.’ There’s no right way to handle this situation.”

Gordon, meanwhile, was ecstatic. He qualified second, but was terrible early in a race that was marred by three different rain showers. The start was delayed almost two hours, and a second shower caused a stoppage that lasted just under 52 minutes.

Gordon was livid when he exited his car on pit road during the red flag.

“I was pretty ticked off that we got that far behind,” Gordon said. “When you have that kind of a start to a race, you don’t have a lot of hope that you’re going to get it turned around.”

But his Hendrick Motorsports team got it figured out during the third and final rain shower.

NASCAR called a caution for rain, and Gordon was one of eight top drivers to head to pit road. Denny Hamlin, the leader, stayed out apparently in a strategy that relied on the race being stopped once and for all for rain.

Instead, NASCAR went back to green and Hamlin led a group of drivers down pit road in a desperate late pit stop. Busch was part of a group that had pitted shortly before the rain so he stayed out and was fourth on the restart. But everyone who had pitted at the start of the caution was on fresh tires — Gordon included — and they quickly drove through the field.

It put Busch back in traffic, and when he finally did go to pit road, a slow stop further hurt his chances.

He never had another chance as Gordon, a four-time champion, picked his way through the field to his second-place fin-

ish. It came a week after he failed to move Hamlin out of the way on the final restart at Atlanta, a decision that cost him the win and ate away at him all week.

Hamlin, who went into his home track as winner of the past two races, led a racehigh 202 laps but faded to 18th. He still goes into next week’s Chase opener as the top seed based on his series-best four “regular season” victories.

Also on Saturday: Force tops U.S. Nationals qualifying CLERMONT, Ind. — Courtney Force raced to her first career No. 1 qualifying position in the rain-delayed U.S. Nationals at Lucas Oil Raceway at Indianapolis.

The 24-year-old rookie Funny Car driver powered her Ford Mustang to a pass of 4.049 seconds at a track-record speed of 317.27 mph.

Hamilton takes pole position for Italian GP MONZA, Italy — Lewis Hamilton won the pole position for today’s Italian Grand Prix after finishing fastest in qualifying, with teammate Jenson Button giving McLaren a one-two finish. Hamilton took his fourth pole of the season amid speculation about his possible switch to Mercedes.

Crook County rolls to volleyball title Bulletin staff report The Crook County Cowgirls gave their volleyball coach, Rosie Honl, the perfect gift Saturday — her birthday — as the reigning Class 4A state champions won the Mountain View tournament without dropping a game.

After knocking off Redmond, Marist and Silverton in pool-play competition, the Cowgirls defeated Ridgeview 25-20, 25-18 in the gold bracket semifinals before sweeping Bend 25-23, 25-21 in the championship final.

Makayla Lindburg led Crook County with 32 kills while Hannah Troutman added 27 kills of her own.

Karlee Myers-Hollis came up big for the Cowgirls in the final against the Lava Bears, going nine of 10 from the service line with two aces. Hollis added eight kills in the final match.

Bend, the tournament’s other finalist, came out of pool play with a 5-1 record.

The Bears defeated Westview 27-25, 25-18 in the semifinal round before falling to the Cowgirls.

“I’m very pleased with where we are,” Bend coach Kristin Cooper said. “We saw some things that we can work on, and I think that we’re only going to get stronger from here.”

Ridgeview compiled a 42 pool-play record to earn a berth into the gold bracket.

The Ravens defeated Willamette 25-12, 21-25, 15-4 in the quarterfinals but ran into Crook County in the semis.

“We’re pretty pleased with our play today,” Ridgeview coach Debi Dewey said. “All members of our team contributed. It was good for us to have competition like Crook County, to see that speed and see our weaknesses that we can work on.”

The Ravens’ Katrina Johnson blasted 14 total kills during bracket play to go along with five blocks, while Rhian Sage delivered 23 assists.

Louisiana-Monroe stuns No. 8 Arkansas in overtime The Associated Press LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — Kolton Browning reminded the nation that LouisianaMonroe is no stranger taking down the Southeastern Conference.

Browning accounted for 481 yards of total offense and four touchdowns Saturday night, including the gamewinning scramble in overtime, to help the Warhawks (1-0) rally from a 21-point deficit for a 34-31 win over No. 8 Arkansas.

The win is Louisiana-Monroe’s first over a ranked team since joining the FBS in 1994, and it is the school’s first over an SEC team since defeating Alabama in 2007. The Warhawks are 4-34 against the SEC. It is also the Sun Belt Conference’s first win over a top 10 team, and the league’s first over a ranked opponent since Troy defeated Missouri in 2004.

“It’s a great feeling; we feel like we deserve it,” Browning said. “We believed the whole time, and we’ve believed for two years that we could put something like this together.

“We knew this moment was coming.”

As stunning as LouisianaMonroe’s victory was, considering the school was 9-15 the past two seasons under coach Todd Berry, it was equaled by the shocking loss by the Razorbacks. Arkansas (1-1) was 21-5 the past two seasons and expected to contend for the SEC and national championships this season, despite the April firing of coach Bobby Petrino.

Also on Saturday: No. 1 Alabama. . . . . . . . . . . . . 35 Western Kentucky. . . . . . . . . . 0 TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — AJ McCarron passed for 219 yards and matched his career high with four touchdown passes to lead Alabama (2-0) to victory.

OSU holds off No. 13 Wisconsin Barner runs for 201 yards in

By Tim Booth The Associated Press

CORVALLIS — It took 41 years for a Big Ten team to again visit Oregon State.

No. 13 Wisconsin might not come back after the Beavers got one of the biggest nonconference wins in school history.

“They played their hearts out today and I’m so proud of them,” Oregon State coach Mike Riley said.

“It’s unbelievable. They just played like crazy to win that game.”

Sean Mannion threw for 276 yards and a touchdown, Oregon State’s defense smothered Wisconsin’s star running back Montee Ball and the Beavers upset the Badgers 10-7.

Mannion connected with Brandin Cooks on a 20-yard touchdown on the opening drive of the second half to give the Beavers a 10-0 lead, then turned it over to the Oregon State (10) defense that forced two turnovers and held Ball to 61 yards rushing.

More importantly, Ball had his touchdown streak snapped at 21 straight games because of the Beavers’ defense.

They were aggressive, blitzing from all angles and making life miserable for Wisconsin quarterback Danny O’Brien, who was sacked three times and threw one interception.

Ball’s longest run was a 15-yard gain in the fourth quarter in a passing situation as the Beavers bracketed him on the outside and kept the usually nimble back from bouncing to the perimeter and open field.

“They were actually presenting what we had planned,” Ball said. “We just didn’t do a great job executing.”

Riley didn’t shy from putting some hype behind this intersectional matchup, calling it the biggest nonconference home game in school history.

Ducks Continued from D1 Oregon head coach Chip Kelly preaches “fast, hard, finish.” It’s written on the walls of Autzen Stadium. The Duck offense forgot the last third of that motto against Fresno State. Instead of finishing strong they limped to the final whistle. In the end, they ended up winning by 17 points when they were favored by 35.

“We sputtered at times,” admitted Kelly, almost begrudgingly. “We’re not going to score on every possession of the entire season. We’ve got to clean up the penalties and stop putting ourselves in adverse situations.”

Kenjon Barner, who rushed for 201 yards and three touchdowns for the Ducks in the best performance of his career, was forced to answer questions about the lackluster offense instead of soaking up his moment in the sun.

“We came out like we had

Beavers Continued from D1 One offense moved the ball drive after drive, tearing up chunks of yardage on the Reser Stadium artificial turf even if it didn’t score much.

But on this day the script was flipped. The Beavers — so hapless in 2011 — largely dominated the reigning Big10 Conference champions in front of 42,189 in attendance on a cool and at times overcast afternoon.

Those fans left with a simple and shocking truth: Oregon State is a superior team to Wisconsin, at least on this day.

And the Beavers’ rise was due to its suffocating defense.

“That is one of the best that probably has ever been in that stadium,” Riley said of his defense. “It was just a beautiful job.”

Indeed it was. Wisconsin managed just 207 yards of total offense and 13 first downs.

A once shoddy unit held the Badgers to just two of 14 on third-down conversions.

Badgers Heisman Trophy candidate Montee Ball ran for just 61 yards on 15 carries.

Read that again. A defense that last year ranked dead last in the Pac-12 in rushing defense held one of the best running backs in the country in check.

“We used last year’s record as motivation for this season,” said OSU star cornerback Jordan Poyer, whose secondquarter sack of Wisconsin quarterback Danny O’Brien snuffed out a promising Wisconsin drive. “Obviously last year was a pretty disappointing season.

“We knew we had to come

Instead of folding under that pressure, the Beavers responded with a stellar defensive effort that made up for missed chances by the Oregon State offense and quickly put the memories of an underachieving 2011 season in the past.

Oregon State outgained the Badgers 354-207 and had an 11-minute advantage in time of possession.

The win snapped Wisconsin’s 33-game nonconference winning streak, the second-longest in the country behind LSU. Wisconsin finished with 207 yards and only 35 on the ground. It was the lowest total yards for Wisconsin in five years. The previous non-conference loss for Wisconsin (1-1) came early in the 2003 season when the Badgers lost to UNLV. “The performance in the first half was unacceptable and that begins with me,” Wisconsin coach Bret Bielema said. “The best rhythm we had all day was the last two minutes at the end. I thought we were extremely fortunate to only be down 3-0 at the half.”

Oregon State’s scheduled opener against FCS Nicholls State was postponed when Hurricane Isaac made it difficult for the Louisiana school to make the trip to the Northwest.

Riley joked this week his team went through the world’s longest training camp.

“I think the extra week definitely helped. Our coaches kept us focused all week and they had a good game plan,” Mannion said.

Mannion was efficient, using short passes to make up for Oregon State’s struggles running. Mannion completed 29 of 47 passes and four times in the first half led the Beavers inside the Wisconsin 35 only to come away with a 43-yard field goal from Trevor Romaine. Markus Wheaton had eight catches for 87 yards and

Cooks had six for 80.

Mannion was five of seven for 68 yards on the first drive of the second half that was capped when Cooks was found open in the end zone.

“When he called the play I knew something special was going to happen,” Cooks said.

Jordan Poyer had one of Oregon State’s three sacks, forcing a fumble that was recovered by the Badgers.

Ryan Murphy intercepted O’Brien in the first half, but the biggest defensive play came from Dylan Wynn.

Wisconsin tried to turn the momentum midway through the third quarter, only to have the Beavers defense come up with a huge play.

Oregon State walk-on punter Keith Kostol dropped a perfect snap and was tackled for a 16-yard loss, giving the Badgers the ball at the Oregon State 36.

An 11-yard pass to Jacob Pedersen got the Badgers to the Beavers 11, but on second down O’Brien held the ball too long and was sacked from behind by Wynn, knocking the ball loose. Defensive end Scott Crichton fell on it at the 21.

O’Brien led one final drive, hitting Pedersen on an 11-yard touchdown pass with 1:31 left that kept the Badgers from being shut out for the first time in 15 years.

The onside kick was smartly executed by Wisconsin kicker Kyle French, who hit it with his left foot and was initially ruled to have recovered it at the Badgers 46. The play was reviewed and determined that French touched the ball before it went 10 yards, giving possession to the Beavers.

“This might be one of the top moments of my college career,” Poyer said. “I still believe there are a lot more moments to come in my senior season. The sky is the limit for us right now.”

the game in hand,” Barner said of the third quarter. “We didn’t come out with the same intensity we had in the first half, and that’s something we have to learn from. It’s easy to learn when you win—it’s hard to learn when you lose. Good teams make mistakes, but you don’t let those mistakes get you down.”

Starting quarterback Marcus Mariota, after an impressive performance against Arkansas State in the opener, looked just as polished in the first half, getting the ball to Barner and De’Anthony Thomas on several big gains.

Mariota insisted the Ducks can learn from the adversity they faced in the second half.

Were they ever going to reach pay dirt? They finally did on a 16-yard run by Barner with 5:49 remaining in the game.

“We struggled a little bit, but I think it’s good,” said Mariota, who was fairly accurate, completing 19 of 27 passes, but threw for just 166

yards. “I think we needed to go through that as an offense to kind of overcome it.”

Oregon offensive coordinator Mark Helfrich said that Fresno State did not do anything different schematically on defense in the second half, it was just a question of execution by the Ducks.

“That’s a time when we have to execute better, we have to communicate better, and we have to secure the ball better,” Helfrich said. “There’s a ton of things there that we just didn’t execute well enough. That’s on us as coaches and for our players to learn from the film and move forward.”

Besides Barner’s performance, the only bright spot of the second half might have been the play of the defense, which was not helped much by the careless Oregon offense.

After the Ducks lost their second fumble deep in their own territory midway through the third quarter,

out this season and show the world what we can do.”

What might be most impressive for the OSU defense was its knack for making a big play when it was most needed.

The Beavers had the chance to let this game slip away when OSU punter Keith Kostol whiffed on a snap, setting up the Badgers on the Beaver 36 with 6:49 to play in the third quarter. Last year’s team certainly would have.

But Oregon State’s defense was up to the challenge. OSU defensive end Dylan Wynn beat his blocker and drilled O’Brien from his blind side, knocking the ball free before OSU’s Scott Crichton recovered on the OSU 10.

Judging by the reaction after the play, anxious Beaver fans were beginning to believe. And when OSU’s defense stonewalled Ball on a 4th and 1 play with 11:07 left, they were convinced.

“That’s just poise,” said linebacker D.J. Welch of his unit’s ability to come up with a big play when needed.

Not all the positives were on defense.

OSU’s formerly swisscheese offensive line proved stout. Quarterback Sean Mannion spent most of the day upright with plenty of time as he completed 29 of 47 passes for 276 yards and a third-quarter touchdown to Brandin Cooks.

Most importantly, the Beavers yielded just one sack and no interceptions.

“I can’t say enough about the offensive line doing an outstanding job,” Mannion said. “I was hardly hit at all all day.”

The Beavers hardly played mistake-free football. Oregon

State made four trips inside Wisconsin’s 35 in its first six possessions, but managed just three points, two failed fourth-down attempts and a missed field goal.

Those struggles ended when Mannion hit a wideopen Cooks with a 20-yard strike that made it 10-0 with 9:33 left in the third quarter.

But there is plenty more to clean up, especially the offense, which still struggled on third downs. And its run game, which was better, lacked consistency.

Against a well-regarded Badgers defense, that all might be understandable.

“We came close a couple times, but we just need to finish,” said Cooks, who caught six balls for 80 yards. “That’s what it is all about.”

Of course, nothing in Corvallis seems to come easy these days. Wisconsin scored its only touchdown with 1:31 to play and appeared to recover the subsequent onside kick.

Oregon State and its fans were left nervously waiting as the replay reviewed the play.

“I was a little nervous,” said Cooks. “But I was watching the play and saw that it didn’t go 10 yards, so I wasn’t TOO nervous.”

A few long minutes later, the referee announced that Kyle French’s kick did not travel the mandatory 10 yards: Oregon State ball.

As the students rushed the field it was finally and truly the Beavers’ day.

After two tough seasons and a never-ending training camp for Oregon State, it could not have come soon enough.

Ducks’ win over Fresno State

By Anne M. Peterson The Associated Press

EUGENE — Kenjon Barner set an example when the Ducks got lethargic.

The senior running back took over and scored late in the fourth quarter to cement No. 4 Oregon’s 42-25 victory over persistent Fresno State on Saturday.

Barner ran for a career-best 201 yards, and scored three touchdowns.

But he made his statement with his final TD, running the ball nine times before a 16-yard dash into the end zone with 3:51 left in the game. It was Oregon’s only touchdown of the second half.

“You’ve got to keep moving and keep grinding,” he said. “You’ve got to adjust to the mistakes that you make.”

The Ducks (2-0) sprinted to a 356 first-half lead before the Bulldogs were able to slow them down in the second half.

“We knocked them off schedule when they tried to go fast in the second half. They tried to go fast again, and we knocked them off schedule again,” said Fresno State defensive coordinator Nick Toth.

De’Anthony Thomas ran for 102 yards and two additional scores for the Ducks, while redshirt freshman quarterback Marcus Mariota completed 19 of 27 passes for 166 yards and a touchdown.

Derek Carr, the younger brother of former Bulldogs QB David Carr, completed 29 of 47 passes for 234 yards and a touchdown for Fresno State (1-1), a new member of the Mountain West Conference this season. Quentin Breshears kicked four field goals, including one from 43 yards.

Fresno State quarterback Derek Carr drove the Bulldogs down to the 1-yard line with the Ducks leading 35-13.

A tackle for a loss by Kiko Alonso and a sack of Carr by Taylor Hart helped hold the Bulldogs to a field goal.

It was a key stop of the game, not just because it kept Fresno State from getting within two touchdowns, but also because it showed just what the Duck defense might be capable of when its back is against the wall in Pac-12 play.

And while Mariota, Thomas, Barner and the Ducks can score at will—which they did in the first half Saturday— the question when they get into conference play will be whether the Oregon defense can stop other passing threats in the conference.

Saturday’s performance against Fresno State does not necessarily prove that it

Fresno State went ahead first on Breshears’ 39-yard field goal, but the lead was short-lived and Thomas scored on his first touch of the game, taking a pitch from Mariota and running 39 yards to make it 7-3.

Thomas appeared to score again on Oregon’s next series on a 2-yard run, but the touchdown was nullified when the officials went back and reviewed the previous play, determining that Mariota had gone out of bounds at the 3-yard-line and not the 2. Barner ran for the score on the next play.

Oregon was hurt in the first half when starting receiver Josh Huff went down on a kickoff return. Huff appeared to hurt his left knee and had to be helped off the field. While he later walked unaided to the locker room, he came out on crutches in the second half.

After the game, Huff shrugged off the injury and said he’d be back at practice on Monday.

Guard Carson York, who tore his right patellar tendon in Oregon’s Rose Bowl victory over Wisconsin last season, was also hurt during the game, but the extent of his injury was not available.

And Oregon was without senior free safety John Boyett, who did not dress for the game but was shagging balls during warmups. Oregon does not discuss injuries, so it is uncertain if he was hurt.

Mariota found tight end Colt Lyerla with a 22-yard scoring pass early in the second quarter, and Thomas darted 51 yards, breaking several tackles, for another touchdown to make it 28-3.

Barner added a 3-yard scoring run before Breshears hit a 43-yard field goal to make it 35-6 at halftime.

can, but it is certainly a step in the right direction. The Ducks gave up just 234 passing yards and one touchdown to Carr. The Bulldogs were just two of 16 on third-down conversions.

The Ducks figured Carr would try to beat them deep, as they have shown a weakness there recently. In their final four games of 2011, including a loss to USC, the Ducks allowed 296 or more passing yards three times. Twice in this season’s opener against Arkansas State the Ducks gave up long receptions, of 72 and 38 yards.

The longest completion they gave up against Fresno State was 22 yards. The Bulldogs made four field goals, but had just two touchdowns.

“I think we did a really good job of handling the short field and bringing out some stops and making them get some

field goals,” said Oregon safety Brian Jackson. “We always want a challenge, and we really enjoyed playing today.

The fact that we held them to some field goals, that’s good defense right there.”

Thomas, Barner and Mariota will get their yards and accolades. But the Oregon defense must prove it can handle potentially dangerous passing attacks from Washington State, Washington, Stanford, and, of course, USC. Against Fresno State, the Oregon defense made a subtle statement.

The offense? Well, it made a huge statement in the first half, followed by a second half that leaves a lot of questions with just one cupcake left — Tennessee Tech this Saturday — in the Ducks’ soft nonconference schedule.

DAVID BROOKS

Character, not audacity

A

s I listened to President Barack Obama on stage in Charlotte, N.C., Thursday night, I thought back to the days more than four years ago, when he spoke at a Jefferson-Jackson dinner in Iowa, or on the night he won the caucuses of that state. There was his romantic vision, the possibility of transformational change.

I don’t know if we are worse off now than we were back then, but we were certainly worse off then than we knew. The financial crisis of the past years has exposed debilitating flaws in our way of life. It’s exposed the crushing burden of debt and the unsustainability of our entitlement system. It’s exposed flaws in our style of capitalism — the overreliance on finance, the concentration of power. It exposed a widening education gap; the educated have recovered from the recession while the unskilled fall further behind. It exposed even deeper dysfunctions in our political system.

Obama was rhetorically grand back then, but many of us have spent this year looking for even bigger strategies and policies.

The Republicans understand the severity of our economic problems, but they put too much faith in tax cuts. The Republicans understand that unless Medicare is reformed, it will swallow everything else, although judging from their convention, they are too timid to explain the problem or champion their own plan.

So, as I looked to Obama’s speech Thursday night, I was looking to see if he was capable of a new burst of change.

There were parts of his speech that raised the old expectations. I liked the emphasis he put not on himself but on the word “you” — the idea that change comes organically from the bottom up. I liked his extraordinary self-awareness, his willingness to admit that often life on the campaign trail requires candidates to do silly things. I liked the sense of citizenship that pervaded his address, the sense of mutual obligation.

The Obama speech offered some important if familiar hints of big policy ideas. There was a vague hint of a major tax reform. There was a vague promise to accept an agreement based on the principle of the Simpson-Bowles committee on deficit reduction. But it’s hard to be enthusiastic about Obama’s truly championing initiatives that get no more than a sentence or a clause.

Overall, the speech had a fierce opposition toward the Republicans and a desire for incremental continuity. Worse, the speech was dominated by unexplained goals that were often worthy, but also familiar, modest and incommensurate with the problems at hand. The government should help more students attend community colleges. It should recruit more math and science teachers.

These are good existing programs, but these are not policies to pinion a presidency around.

It would be nice if exports doubled. It would be nice if deficits came down gradually over the next 10 years. But the goals Obama set in these spheres will probably be met if everybody in Washington carried on the status quo. They do not entail big change.

Obama offered other small and worthy ideas, familiar to him since his days in the Senate, that would make America better — more longlasting batteries, more trade agreements. But these are improvements fit for countries that are already firmly on the right track.

In short, change is still the issue, and the focus of this solid but not extraordinary speech was incremental improvement. The next president has to do three big things, which are in tension with one another: increase growth, reduce debt and increase social equity. Obama has the intelligence, the dexterity and the sense of balance to navigate these crosscutting challenges. But he apparently lacks the creativity to break out of the partisan categories.

Thursday night’s speech showed the character and his potential. It didn’t show audacity and the fulfillment of that potential.

In San Francisco, painting bicycle lanes, a goal of environmentalists, was delayed for four years by a lawsuit filed by a local resident who claimed the lanes could cause pollution. “These kinds (of) lawsuits are not living up to the intent of the law,” said Michael Rubio, a Democrat in the California Senate.

seeing red over abuse of a green law • To add jobs, many Californians look to alter landmark 1970 Environmental Quality Act

By Ian Lovett • New York Times News Service LOS ANGELES — nvironmentalists in this greenest of places call the California Environmental Quality Act the state’s most powerful environmental protection, a model for the nation credited with preserving lush wetlands and keeping condominiums off the slopes of the Sierra Nevada.

But increasingly, the landmark law passed in 1970 has also been abused, opening the door to lawsuits — sometimes brought by business competitors or for reasons unrelated to the environment — which, regardless of their merit, can delay even green development projects for years or sometimes kill them completely.

With California still mired in what many consider its worst economic crisis since the Great Depression, this law — once a source of pride to many Californians and environmentalists across the country — has turned into an agonizing test in the struggle to balance environmental concerns against the need for jobs and economic growth.

“Something is broken,” said Leron Gubler, president of the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce. “A

E

lot of jobs could have been saved if not for these lawsuits, as well as new jobs once these projects were completed.”

Gubler said lawsuits and the threat of litigation had delayed at least seven recent projects in Hollywood, costing the area more than 6,000 jobs.

In one of those Hollywood projects, the developers of a mixed-use retail and residential project won a lawsuit against its building plans, but the owners declared bankruptcy and sold before the ruling. Work has finally begun under new ownership, but another lawsuit has been filed.

In San Francisco, the city’s plan to paint bicycle lanes, one of the main goals of environmentalists, was delayed for four years by a lawsuit filed by a local resident who claimed the lanes could cause pollution.

And it is not only big projects that are litigation targets. In San Jose, a gas station has been indefinitely prevented from adding another pump because of a lawsuit filed by the owner of a competing gas station across the street.

See Green law / F6

The law in a nutshell Passed in 1970 under Gov. Ronald Reagan, the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requires state and local agencies to identify the environmental impacts of proposed activities or projects, and if the impacts are significant, to avoid or mitigate those impacts.

It was intended to supplement in state law the 1969 federal National Environmental Policy Act. Source: www.ca.gov; California Natural Resources Agency

ednesday night, members of the Bend City Council took the first step to extend for another year a program that allows builders to defer payment of

system development charges. Several members of the council questioned the Bend Park & Recreation District’s failure to join in the program during the hearing on the proposal. The park district says it does not have a good choice, but it may have a choice.

The city collects SDCs as a way to assure that newcomers, whether they’re people or businesses, pay their fair share of the bills that go with growth. New roads must be built and sewer and water facilities expanded. Growth also puts pressure on the park district, which must develop new parks as the city grows out from its core. It, too, collects fees to cover the added cost.

The city’s deferral program was put in place in 2008 in hopes of providing a small but genuine boost to a collapsing housing market. Under normal circumstances builders must pay SDCs when they apply for building permits; the program allows them to defer the payments, which run well above $10,000 for the city alone.

The charges must be paid, of course, even with the deferral. The city gives a builder six months or until the home is occupied, whichever comes first, to cover the charges.

In the meantime, it takes out a lien

on the property to assure it doesn’t lose out if something goes wrong.

Unfortunately, the park district does not have the same option, according to Bruce Ronning, the district’s director of planning and development.

In fact, Ronning says, the district has looked several times at finding a way to join the city in the deferral program. Its lawyers cautioned against liens being effective because the park district may be near the back of the line to collect its money.

My Nickel’s Worth Consider your dog

We wonder, though, if the park district could work out an agreement with the city for the city not to issue a certificate of occupancy if a builder failed to pay park SDCs. That doesn’t guarantee the park district’s money, but it would mean a house would not be adding any new need for parks either. Ronning says he remembers certificate of occupancy was discussed. It should be explored. Is it a workable solution?

If we are Dog City, USA, why is it that everywhere I look I see abuse?

People dragging their dogs everywhere, even in the extreme heat (like the Sunday afternoon concerts).

Recently I was standing on the asphalt unlocking my car door and my feet were burning hot with my shoes on. Can’t you feel what your dog suffers? With Bend’s great parks and seven off-leash parks, you have a wonderful choice where you take them.

Caution is critical for expanding online learning

Businesses, stakeholders

I

n some districts across the nation, high school students are being required to take at least one course online. In some cases, it’s a state requirement, in others it’s a district decision.

The argument is that students need that experience to prepare them for college and jobs, according to a report in Education Week.

A few officials acknowledge they expect to save money through online learning. In some places, the requirements “may be a creative way of increasing demand and even legitimizing a district’s decision to create their own program,� as Matthew Wicks of the International Association for K-12 Online Learning told Education Week.

In Putnam County, Tenn., a personal-finance course is required for graduation, but offered only online. A student who became comfortable with online learning by taking that course went on to study more online and was able to skip a grade.

In Marietta, Ga., schools had to add computer labs and facilitators when they expanded their online program and required students to take a health class online. But despite that expense, they expect to save money as students take more classes online and graduate earlier.

In Alabama, Florida, Idaho and

Michigan, the state requires high school students to take at least one course online.

Online education is all the rage these days, from K-12 districts starting or expanding programs to highend universities offering free courses online. Publications for educators are full of excitement about teaching opportunities through the use of electronic tools. School boards talk about the need to educate children for their future, not our past.

That’s all good, but it’s also risky. Too much enthusiasm can drown out voices of caution. Large investments made too fast can make it impossible to turn back when experience better informs us about what works. And financial pressures can force us into systems that save money, but turn out to be less effective for students.

In Oregon, there’s plenty of healthy experimentation going on, but no requirement for students to take online courses. In Central Oregon, efforts include expanded online opportunities in Bend-La Pine and Crook County, plus many teachers experimenting with online resources in regular classrooms.

Enthusiasm is a positive motivator, but in this arena, caution is critical because the stakes are so high.

In response to Kenney Griffiths In My View on Aug. 22: He states that any successful business will consider all stakeholders as part of good business management. Is burning coal next to population centers good for someone with asthma?

Is hydraulic fracking good for someone whose well water has been poisoned? Are you satisfied with what is laughingly called customer service by your cellphone company?

In these and many other instances, the individual affected by these acts is powerless to prevent them.

Also, Griffiths’ absurd use of Obama’s statement about who built what is way out of context. He was referring very clearly to roads and bridges that facilitate business opportunities, not the businesses themselves.

I was under the mistaken impression that the new policy of The Bulletin was to have some fact-checking review in its letters. Clearly not.

So, Mitt Romney’s disingenuous campaign lies can be repeated by any letter writers as fact.

I am fine with that as long as you give equal treatment to anyone using Obama’s out-of-context, disingenuous lies against Romney.

Great “new� policy, Bulletin.

PERS not only problem It is an understatement to say we are living in challenging fiscal times. PERS is not the only issue that needs to be addressed immediately.

Although it is very easy to put the blame on PERS for our fiscal issues, there are many more factors in play, including who we have in leadership positions at the city, county and state and what decisions they are making.

We have an ongoing debate around a $68 million water issue and face the prospect of 40 percent increases in water bills; there are “rumors� of the Central Oregon Intergovernmental Council coming forward with a sizable funding request to form a bus/transportation district; we have Bend Park & Recreation District coming forward with a funding measure in the $20 million range; we have 911 planning to come back with a tax district in 2014; and so it goes.

It is not unreasonable to think Bend-La Pine Schools will need to ask for funding based on the impact of PERS, and I would not be surprised to see that early next year.

None of the measures listed are bad measures. One of the questions we should be asking ourselves as we

make our choices is not what is the individual cost for these, but what is the total cost for all these measures per taxpayer?

We need to choose funding measures and candidates very carefully.

The crisis is far from over. We will face these same issues of funding again.

What does the future in 3-D printing mean for companies?

By Peter Goldmark Newsday

I

n 1820, Col. Robert Johnson stood on the courthouse steps in Salem, N.J., and astonished an anxious crowd by ‌ eating a tomato.

In those days the “love apple,� as it was called, was believed to be poisonous. It was mostly grown as an ornamental plant. Johnson suffered no ill effects, and before long everyone was eating tomatoes.

It’s hard to spot a trend before it happens, and trends in technology are harder to decipher and predict than eating habits. But on our horizon is one powerful new technology, still in its birth pangs, that will revolutionize large parts of our production economy. It’s called 3-D printing. It’s just starting to be talked about more in the media now; I learned about it from a friend who is advising one

of the young companies in the field.

Enthusiasts say this is coming at us like a freight train — but, in its early days, it looks very hard to me to tell how fast this train is moving.

Just as a normal printer or copier reproduces and prints a two-dimensional copy of a piece of paper placed in it or sent to it, a 3-D printer will reproduce a three-dimensional copy of an object that is placed in it or sent to it.

The thought alone startles, doesn’t it? Say I’m in California and you’re in New York. And I send you a valve to replace the one in your car that broke; or a pair of corrective eyeglasses customized to your specifications, when all you’ve given me is the prescription; or — yes, this is being explored — they transmit a body organ to replace one of yours that is defective. Actually, in that last case

they’ll probably send it to the hospital where you’re being treated (I have to assume it’ll be a good long while before we’re ready for install-it-yourself body organ replacements).

We are in the early days of 3-D printing, which is also known as “additive manufacturing.� These machines are still expensive; some cost as much as $10,000, although much cheaper models are starting to appear. They reproduce things inconsistently. And most of them build only plastic objects — although labs and universities are beginning to stretch the envelope in this respect.

A team at the University of Glasgow developed a 3-D printer that could produce chemical compounds, including some new ones never created before.

Think of where this may ultimately lead. What happens to the factory or

the assembly line? What happens to the comparative advantage of China and other emerging countries where cheap labor and manufacturing underpin their entire economies? What happens to manufacturing jobs period, in any country, if all a computer operator has to do is input the specs of the desired item to a 3-D replicator?

Like the personal computer, which three decades ago was an experimental specialty object for advanced individual users, the 3-D printer, when it comes of age, is likely to disrupt our existing industrial economy along many dimensions. It will decimate large parts of the transportation industry. It will radically change retailing. It is more efficient than traditional manufacturing, which commonly functions through the removal of material — by drilling, cutting, or otherwise carving it away; 3-D

printing lays down successive layers of only what is needed to build up the object and is thus inherently less wasteful. In a resource-starved planet, this will make a large difference.

3-D printing will spell the end of inventory as we know it. And at the most basic level, it will change the meaning and operation of that most fundamental law of business: economies of scale.

It’ll be a while before you or I buy one of these. And, frankly, I don’t know if “around the corner� means in three years or 10. But it’s not too early for department stores, or the Teamsters, to start worrying. — Peter Goldmark, a former budget director of New York state and former publisher of the International Herald Tribune, headed the climate program at the Environmental Defense Fund. He wrote this for Newsday.

C Obama hare and Romney tortoise T

he 2012 race has turned into one of Aesop’s classic fables.

After each new media blitz against the no-frills Mitt Romney, a far cooler President Obama races ahead three or four points in the polls — only to fall back to about even as the attention fades.

Meanwhile, the Romney tortoise, head down on the campaign trail, keeps lumbering along toward the November finish. There is nothing fancy day in and day out — only the steady plod of a good enough convention, workmanlike speeches that pass muster, a Midwestern vice presidential nominee who is informed and reliable, and the standard conservative correctives offered to liberal excesses.

We have now gone through Obama’s various caricatures of a scary Mitt Romney — the financial buccaneer who outsources his wealth abroad, the misogynist who wages a war on women, the veritable racist whose proposed budget cuts and nativism are aimed mostly at the nonwhite, the ageist bent on dismantling Social Security, and the near-killer who cares little when the innocent die in the wreckage of his Bain profit-making. At each juncture, Obama gains some traction, picks up a few points, and then slowly slides back to even.

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON How does Romney’s thick tortoise shell withstand these frenetic assaults as he keeps trudging back to even in the polls?

Barack Obama does not do well as Richard Nixon. Four years ago, he ran on a new civility, an end to namecalling and an abhorrence of partisan bickering. And an unknown Obama without a record was largely able to abide by his professed ethos in 2008.

After all, it was easy to as donations poured in, the McCain campaign was as polite as it was timid, and the banalities of untried hope and change mesmerized millions.

But now, all the new negative advertising just cloaks Obama in hypocrisy. By the same token, Romney’s challenge has always been that he is blandly and predictably straight-arrow. If that normalcy means he cannot give soaring hope and change speeches, it also ensures that casting him as a multifarious sinner is preposterous, and reflects more poorly on the accuser than the intended target.

Obama cannot run on his record of Obamacare, reset foreign policy,

Keynesian deficit priming, and wind and solar power in preference to fully developing vast new finds of oil and gas. What ultimately doomed incumbents Jerry Ford in 1976, Jimmy Carter in 1980 and George H.W. Bush in 1992 was that they likewise did not wish to talk about the economy under their respective watches, but instead alleged that their opponents would be far worse to the point of being unfit. Such tactics usually don’t work.

In Obama’s case, 42 months of 8 percent-plus unemployment, laggard GDP growth, $4-a-gallon gas, a precipitous drop in average family income, record numbers on food stamps, serial $1 trillion budget deficits and $5 trillion in new national debt can no longer be packaged as either a “summer of recovery” or George Bush’s legacy — and so are left unmentioned.

The current presidential race remains a seesaw battle because for all the advantages of incumbency and the president’s charisma, the public is not happy with the Obama administration’s record on the economy.

And it does not believe — at least at this juncture — that Romney is the villain that the Obama campaign has portrayed.

Yet Romney trudges rather than sprints ahead because he is no glib Ronald Reagan. He is also the first

Mormon candidate in the general election and a very rich man at a time when Americans are growing angrier by the day that they are far poorer than they were four years ago.

The country is also not quite ready to confess that it went a little crazy in 2008 and voted for the embarrassing banalities of “hope and change” offered by a little-known senator with a thin résumé and little national experience. Again, no voter likes to admit that he was led to the polls in a trance by the mellifluous music of a pied piper.

Obama’s present paradox is that the more he goes negative against Romney, the less the slurs seem to stick, and the less presidential the self-avowed ethical reformer appears. Yet because the economy is not going to noticeably improve by November, Obama believes he must continue in hopes of discovering a bona fide Romney scandal, or that he must claim the country is threatened abroad and in need of national unity.

Barring a real recovery or a sudden war, the steady, plodding Romney tortoise is ever so slowly winning the race against the flashier — surging, yet always fading — Obama hare.

A

t the recent conference of central bankers in Jackson Hole, Wyo., the main topic of conversation was off the program.

In the margins of the meeting, many of the bankers talked about the threat to their independence posed by meddling politicians. Nobody presented a paper on the subject, because it’s a tough one for the professionals to air in public.

I understand the reticence. Whether or how to impose democratic accountability on central banking has become the most important question in political economy, not just in the U.S. but also in Europe and around the world. Unfortunately, the answer that’s emerging is unfit for public consumption. We can have proper checks and balances or good central banking, it seems, but not both.

The idea that central banking could be kept above politics was never really plausible, but for a long time central bankers could get away with pretending otherwise.

An independent central bank can promise to keep inflation low more credibly than a bank directed by a finance ministry — i.e., by politicians tempted to pump up the economy for short-run electoral purposes. The credibility of the promise shifts expectations in the economy, which makes the promise easier to keep. That’s the case for independence. Crucially, you could also argue (as long as you didn’t stop to think about it) that merely keeping inflation low could be done without straying into contested po-

litical terrain.

That was always a dubious proposition. Even a narrow-purpose central bank — one with a simple antiinflation mandate — must decide how hard to lean against a boom and how urgently to fight a recession. In other words, it has to weigh control of inflation against stability in jobs and the real economy, and that question is unavoidably political.

This trade-off was a matter of great controversy during the early 1980s when Paul Volcker, the Fed chairman, drew praise and blame for inflicting a recession on the U.S. economy to get inflation down. For the next 25 years, the question was mostly set aside. That changed when the recession forced central banks to innovate. Suddenly, the issue of independence is the elephant in the

room.

First, the traditional tools of monetary policy stopped working. Once the Federal Reserve, the Bank of England, the European Central Bank and others had cut short-term interest rates to zero, they had to deliver further monetary stimulus in unorthodox ways — for instance, by expanding their balance sheets through quantitative easing. This takes risk onto the public sector’s books and, depending on what kind of assets the banks buy, channels support to particular economic sectors. It’s at least as much a fiscal as a monetary operation.

Second, as John Cochrane of the University of Chicago pointed out recently, the Fed (like many other central banks) has been given new regulatory powers. Regulation is not

oyalty points, frequent-flier miles, corporate-branded umbrellas, tote bags, stress balls and other trifles: All are contemporary versions of an old and very effective marketing strategy. We have always been suckers for free stuff.

Many of us remember pulverizing dry cereal to dust in an attempt to retrieve a free prize at the bottom of the box. Older generations were drawn to the miniature books, plastic charms and base-metal tokens inside boxes of Cracker Jack, with caramel-coated popcorn and peanuts often an afterthought.

That strategy was hugely successful, but it wasn’t new. Rueckheim Bros. & Eckstein, the maker of Cracker Jack, was probably inspired by American confectioners of the 1870s, who targeted young customers by selling “prize packages” containing cash, jewelry and prints. Plus candy.

Confectionery supplier John H. Miller & Son, for example, offered 21 different prize packages in its 1876 promotional flier, including the Great Watch Novelty, which guaranteed that one out of every two boxes contained a new silver coin, and one in 100 held a new watch. Other candyfilled prize packages contained mar-

bles, charms, puzzles, whistles, pop guns and assorted other gimcracks, the manufacture of which was a lucrative business in its own right.

W.C. Smith of Buffalo, for example, specialized in confectioners’ toys for “penny goods,” and Chicago’s Dowst Brothers, which would later produce the TootsieToy line of cast-metal cars and airplanes, began their business producing thimblesized tokens in the shape of rabbits, boots, flowers, horseshoes and boats for candy boxes.

Confectioners, in turn, may have been inspired to offer incentives by the publishers of children’s serials, who in the 1870s began encouraging young readers to “canvass” — that is, to solicit subscriptions from their friends — acting, in effect, as cheaply paid agents. Successful canvassers were promised remuneration in the form of choice prizes.

Publishers took their cues from the incentive programs that marketers had been using since the mid-19th century. Such programs were used to attract the patronage of adults rather than children.

Other entrepreneurs soon followed, promising free things from the practical to the fantastical along with the purchase of books, food items and other consumer goods.

The American Tobacco Co. even induced amputees to purchase their products by offering them artificial limbs.

From a business perspective, incentives have been a smart strategy from the start. They have a way of persuading us to buy goods we otherwise might not have, to buy them in greater quantities than we had intended, or to waste valuable time standing in line for a free item we have no use for.

As Dan Ariely explains in “Predictably Irrational: The Hidden Forces That Shape Our Decisions,” paying nothing for something is “a source of irrational excitement.” It overrides the rational part of our brain that would calculate how much something offered for free might actually cost us. “Most transactions have an upside and a downside, but when something is FREE! we forget the downside,” Ariely writes.

“FREE! gives us such an emotional charge that we perceive what is being offered as immensely more valuable than it really is.”

Not surprisingly, incentive goods, however popular, tend to be quite shoddy. Take the mid-19th-century book dealers that successfully sold remaindered books by offering worthless trifles (imitation silk

A different world order

M

handkerchiefs, electroplated pen and pencil sets, and so on) along with them.

When incentives actually are quality goods, their value is typically low compared with the amount of consumer investment required to get them. The free toaster famously offered in exchange for opening a bank account was quite modest compensation for, potentially, a lifetime’s worth of loyal patronage.

We continue to be seduced by free stuff, our consumer selves having evolved little over time. Children today are often enticed by the prizes that accompany McDonald’s Happy Meals, which also serve as clever tieins to toy lines and new films.

Now, though, most incentives exist in abstract form, as frequent-flier miles and loyalty points with tightly controlled and often opaque redemption procedures. These incentives also come at a price that extends beyond the mere cost of purchase, because we blithely trade valuable contact information and personal details for something as mundane as a promotional T-shirt.

Now, as then, marketers know that we can’t resist free things, even as they end up costing us more and more.

a value-free process that can be left to disinterested technocrats — least of all if it’s used to advance goals such as more lending to small businesses or easier refinancing for distressed mortgage borrowers. Wider regulatory powers are another move deeper into political territory.

Something no central banker with an eye to keeping his job can say, but which is nonetheless true, is that the U.S. and Europe are suffering a systemic failure of democratic government. Central banks are encroaching on the politicians’ terrain out of necessity. They are doing what elected politicians should be doing, because the politicians refuse to.

Under today’s conditions, with short-term interest rates at zero, countercyclical fiscal policy has to be granted a bigger role than usual.

(There’s a strong, though admittedly not universal, consensus among economists in support of this view.)

This role has two equally important dimensions, as Fed chief Ben Bernanke keeps saying, albeit in prudently elliptical terms. Budgetary stimulus should be maintained or increased in the short term, and public debt should be contained and reduced (under the terms of a plan announced right now) in the medium term.

You can have textbook checks and balances, with all political actors held accountable to voters and independent agencies held to a narrow technical mandate. Or you can have an economy on the path to recovery.

Reluctantly, I’ll take the latter.

Why free stuff is always irrationally exciting

By Wendy Woloson

THOMAS FRIEDMAN

itt Romney has been criticized for not discussing foreign policy. Give him a break. He probably figures he’s already said all that he needs to say during the primaries: He has a big stick, and he is going to use it on Day 1. Or as he put it: “If I’m president of the United States … on Day 1, I will declare China a currency manipulator, allowing me to put tariffs on products where they are stealing American jobs unfairly.”

That is really cool. Smack China on Day 1. I just wonder what happens on Day 2 when China, the biggest foreign buyer of U.S. debt securities, announces that it will not participate in the next Treasury auction, sending our interest rates soaring. That will make Day 3 really, really cool.

Welcome to the Romney foreign policy, which I’d call: “George W. Bush abroad — the cartoon version.”

I know that Romney doesn’t believe a word he’s saying on foreign policy and that its all aimed at ginning up votes: There’s some Chinabashing to help in the Midwest, some Arab-bashing to win over the Jews, some Russia-bashing (our “No. 1 geopolitical foe”) to bring in the Polish vote, plus a dash of testosterone to keep the neocons off his back.

What’s odd is that Romney was in a position to sound smart on foreign policy, not like a knee-jerk hawk. He just needed to explain what every global business leader learned long before governments did — that, since the end of the Cold War, the world has become not just more interconnected but more interdependent and this new structural reality requires a new kind of American leadership.

Why? In this increasingly interdependent world, your “allies” can hurt you as much as your “enemies.” After all, the biggest threats to President Barack Obama’s re-election are whether little Greece pulls out of the eurozone and triggers a global economic meltdown or whether Israel attacks Iran and does the same.

In this increasingly interdependent world, your rivals can threaten you as much by collapsing as by rising.

Think of what would happen to U.S. markets and jobs if China’s growth slowed to a crawl and there was internal instability there?

In this increasingly interdependent world, we have few pure “enemies” anymore: Iran, North Korea, Cuba, al-Qaida, the Taliban. But we have many “frenemies,” or half friends/ half foes. While the Pentagon worries about a war with China, the Commerce Department is trying to get China to buy more Boeing planes and every American university worth its salt is opening a campus in Beijing. President Hugo Chavez of Venezuela is the biggest thorn in America’s side in Latin America and a vital source of our imported oil.

The U.S. and Russia are on opposing sides in Syria, but the U.S. supported Russia’s joining the World Trade Organization and American businesses are lobbying Congress to lift Cold War trade restrictions.

But that’s today’s world, and the leadership challenge it poses is easy to describe but hard to pull off. If the world is more interdependent, how do we create healthy interdependencies so we rise together, rather than unhealthy interdependencies so we fall together? The 2008 global economic crisis was an example of an unhealthy interdependency. So is the failure to reach any kind of global climate agreement. When we bring Russia into the World Trade Organization, we’re creating a healthy interdependency. When Russia protects Syria’s dictator, even when he’s crushing his own people, it’s creating an unhealthy interdependency.

The best way for an American president to forge healthy interdependencies is, first, to get our own house in order and gain the leverage — in terms of resources and moral authority — that come from leading by example. For instance, Romney is right: There are unhealthy aspects to the U.S.-China interdependency that need working on, but they are not all China’s fault. We would have more leverage to build a more healthy relationship if we saved more, consumed less, studied harder and got our own banks to behave less recklessly.

Republicans love to criticize Obama for “leading from behind.”

But if you’re not leading by example in an interdependent world, you can lead from the front or behind — no one will follow you for long.

Hitchens’ memoir is more than just reflections on death

ORIGAMI

“Delusion In Death”

by J.D. Robb (Putnam, 388 pgs., $27.95)

“Mortality”

by Christopher Hitchens (Twelve, 104 pgs., $22.99)

By Lezlie Patterson McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Nora Roberts, writing under pseudonym J.D. Robb, has redefined average with her “In Death” series. In this 35th installment of the series she began in 1995, she gives readers what has become “average” for stories featuring the indomitable and incomparable couple of Roarke and Eve — an unrivaled suspense with threads of passion, romance, humor and charm.

The book is due to be released Tuesday.

In “Delusion In Death,” Eve and company encounter perhaps one of their most heinous and grisly crimes.

In two different crime scenes, mass murders occur when patrons of two different businesses inexplicably start brutally killing each other.

The first scene, a popular and upscale bar, is owned by Roarke, which gives him the excuse to assist his beloved wife with the investigation.

It’s a good thing that Roarke owns so many businesses because that gives readers an opportunity to experience more Roarke. And that is a very, very, very good thing.

Roarke is the quintessential romance hero. He’s simply perfect.

And Eve is his perfect soul mate. Together, they make a perfect couple, whose witty banter, passionate moments and interactions are so much fun, and part of what makes this such an enduring and captivating series.

Robb provides a fastpaced drama as Eve and her team of detectives try to figure out who is behind the brutal and grisly murders.

Not only is trying to uncover the “bad guy” part of the appeal, but the unequaled author manages to adeptly infuse light moments, touching romance and delightful character interaction that will completely captivate and charm readers.

Chris Alexander, creator of “Star Wars Origami,” started doing origami when he was 4 years old and saw “Star Wars” when it first was released in 1977. “Everyone always wants to put their hobbies together; this is my result,” he said.

Ancient paper art focus of new books “Amazing Origami: Traditional Japanese Folding Papers and Projects” (Tuttle Publishing, $18.95) “Star Wars Origami: 36 Amazing Paper-folding Projects from a Galaxy Far, Far Away”

by Chris Alexander (Workman Publishing, 259 pgs., $16.95)

By Tish Wells McClatchy-Tribune News Service

There’s more to origami than cranes.

It started centuries ago, likely in Japan, and has had widespread appeal ever since.

New variations appear all the time. Traditionalists will enjoy “Amazing Origami” and pop-culture enthusiasts can try their hand at folding Darth Vader’s black helmet.

Chris Alexander, author of “Star Wars Origami,” had been enthralled by “Star Wars” since the movie entered theaters in 1977.

“I saw the original “Star Wars” when it first came out,” he said at Celebration VI, a “Star Wars” convention held in Orlando, Florida. “I have been a fan ever since. I started doing origami when I was 4, so that would be 1969, so I have been an origami fan since then. Everyone always wants to put their hobbies together; this is my result.”

Alexander, whose real-life job is a Los Angeles air traffic controller, says, “The Internet made it really accessible to ev-

erybody. So, now it’s just getting more and more popular as time goes on.”

“Amazing Origami” takes a more traditional look at paper folding. The introduction points out that “in Japanese ‘ori’ means to fold and ‘gami’ means paper.”

Alexander fell into making “Star Wars” origami by accident. He was teaching children how to fold a penguin, turned

it on its side, and realized “you have a B-wing starfighter” from “Star Wars: Return of the Jedi,” something in-depth fans of the films would recognize.

Visiting a friend who was also a big “Star Wars” fan, he showed off the B-wing and an X-wing fighter he’d folded. His friend told him to write a book about them.

“I said I can’t. I don’t know how to write, I don’t know how to invent, I don’t know how to design them, put them on paper. And he said, ‘So teach yourself,’ ” says Alexander. Fifteen years later, his book has been published.

It has 36 designs including light sabers, R2-D2 ’droid, the Wookiee Chewbacca and an Imperial shuttle.

He’s made extensive origami sets for the stars of the movies including “an elaborate display I made for George Lucas.

He said it was amazing.”

‘Embers of War’ is a history of how the Vietnam War began “Embers of War: The Fall of an Empire and the Making of America’s Vietnam”

by Fredrik Logevall (Random House, $40)

By Jim Landers The Dallas Morning News

In the winter of 1954-55, State Department intelligence analyst Paul Kattenburg was in Saigon puzzling over the wisest course for U.S. policymakers.

France, with its army defeated at Dien Bien Phu and colonial ambitions in Asia at an end, was preparing to leave.

The Eisenhower administration was stoking the ambitions of Ngo Dinh Diem to become president of an independent Republic of Vietnam in the area south of an armistice line drawn at the 17th parallel.

Kattenberg recommended that the U.S. give Ho Chi Minh’s communist government in Hanoi $500 million to rebuild and forget about holding the line.

Kattenberg guessed the amount would be enough to win Ho’s friendship, prying

him away from China and the Soviet Union. Ho had looked for support from the U.S. starting in 1919, when he went to Paris hoping to see President Woodrow Wilson so he could argue the case for Vietnamese independence.

It was one of those moments that offered a fork in the road.

They crop up many times in Fredrik Logevall’s “Embers of War.” Hindsight makes them tantalizing.

In their own time, American policymakers dismissed them as unwise or crazy. Vietnam was subordinate to concerns about peace in Europe in 1919.

In 1955, Ho Chi Minh was too bound up in communism during a global Cold War to win favor in Washington.

There are thousands of books about the Vietnam War. Amazon.com lists 3,443. A lot of them render harsh judgments on former presidents Lyndon Johnson and Richard Nixon and the military leadership they chose to lead the American war effort. Logevall offers

“Embers of War” as a history of how it all began. The how takes some telling — nearly 800 pages. It is very much worth the read, though, both for the story and the writing.

Logevall opens with an invitation to muse.

“Ho visited Boston and New York in 1913 and a few years later read Woodrow Wilson’s Fourteen Points. The United States, he came fervently to believe, could be the champion of his cause. (In the French nightmare, he was right.) In 1919, at the end of the Great War, with Wilson due in Paris to negotiate a peace ‘to end all wars,’ the unknown young nationalist set out to make his case. It’s here that our story begins.”

“Embers of War” has the balance and heft to hold hindsight’s swift verdicts at bay. French and Vietnamese sources and accounts help inform the story, including some that describe how close Ho’s forces came to defeat and how badly and cruelly they governed once they’d taken over in the north.

This is an excellent, valuable book.

For all that literature is an art of self-exposure, writers tend to back away from impending death. The shelf of firsthand looks at what Janet Hobhouse called “this dying business” is a short one — Hobhouse’s searing posthumous novel “The Furies”; Raymond Carver’s final collection of poetry, “A New Path to the Waterfall”; John Updike’s “Endpoint and Other Poems.”

I’m not sure why this is, exactly, other than that dying is a lot of work. I’m not trying to be glib here, just to suggest that in the face of annihilation, things get elemental quickly, leaving little room for the luxury of writing it all out.

As T.S. Eliot observes, in “The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock”: “I have seen the moment of my greatness flicker, / And I have seen the eternal Footman hold my coat, and snicker,/ And in short, I was afraid.”

Those lines of Eliot’s appear in Christopher Hitchens’ “Mortality,” the latest addition to the library of the dying — although to read it on such terms exclusively is to miss the point. That’s because “Mortality” is not so much reflection as reportage, a set of dispatches from “Tumortown,” where the author found himself exiled in mid-2010.

Hitchens, who died of esophageal cancer in December 2011, sets the scene in the first sentences: “I have more than once in my time woken up feeling like death. But nothing prepared me for the early morning in June when I came to consciousness feeling as if I were actually shackled to my own corpse. The whole cave of my chest and thorax seemed to have been hollowed out and then refilled with slow-drying cement.”

For Hitchens, this felt very much like a “deportation … from the country of the well across the stark frontier that marks off the land of malady,” a sensation made more pronounced by the fact that he was stricken while on tour for his memoir “Hitch-22.” He was 61.

All that makes for a peculiar set of tensions, which have as much to do with Hitchens as they do with death. Unlike Carver or even Updike, he reveled in his status as a larger-than-life figure.

A prodigious smoker and

drinker, Hitchens was also an outspoken contrarian who would not willingly walk away from a fight. He was never — not even in these pages, first composed for Vanity Fair during the final 19 months of his life — particularly emotional, preferring to rely on rhetoric instead.

Yet if that gives “Mortality” a certain clear-headed aversion to the banal, it also keeps us at a distance, even when Hitchens is speaking from the heart. Here he is on the disappointment triggered by his diagnosis: “I am badly oppressed by the gnawing sense of waste. I had real plans for my next decade and felt I’d worked hard enough to earn it. Will I really not live to see my children married? To watch the World Trade Center rise again? To read — if not indeed to write — the obituaries of elderly villains like Henry Kissinger and Joseph Ratzinger? But I understand this sort of non-thinking for what it is: sentimentality and self-pity.”

This is an important moment in “Mortality,” not least for what it says about Hitchens’ priorities. How can we not be moved by his lament for the decade he is losing even as we notice the oddly impersonal nature of his regrets? I’m not suggesting that Hitchens didn’t suffer on a personal level, although it’s striking to see his children’s prospective weddings equated with an obituary for the pope. But what’s telling about such a passage is its almost willful abnegation of the private, the idea that he is not going to let us in.

Again and again, Hitchens steers away from feeling and toward argument, whether he is discussing atheism (the subject of his 2007 book “God Is Not Great”) or the rigors of medical treatment, which he equates with torture in both a physical and a psychological sense.

“Mortality” closes with a collection of observations left unconnected at the time of Hitchens’ death. It’s a vivid metaphor for where death leaves us, in a state of incompletion, deserted by logic and intention, no matter how fierce. This too is telling, reminding us that even the most prodigious intellect is no defense — which is, in some sense, what this little book has been arguing all along. Or, as Hitchens insists, with just the right trace of bitter irony: “To the dumb question ‘Why me?’ the cosmos barely bothers to return the reply: ‘Why not?’ ”

A crowded fall book season No easy answers in Smith’s ‘NW’

• Bibliophiles must choose among highly anticipated releases by a pride of literary lions

By Julie Bosman New York Times News Service

The list reads like a Who’s Who at an exclusive book party: Junot Diaz, Ian McEwan, J.K. Rowling, Zadie Smith and Tom Wolfe.

All are superstar authors who are releasing hugely anticipated books this fall, colliding in one of the most crowded literary traffic jams in recent memory.

Fall is traditionally the biggest season in the book business, the time that publishers reserve for their most highprofile authors. But this year it is especially crammed with writers who are both household names and have not released a book in several years, like the octogenarian Wolfe, whose last novel, “I Am Charlotte Simmons,” was published in 2004, and Diaz, the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of “The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao,” which came out in 2007.

Salman Rushdie, the author of “Midnight’s Children,” will release a memoir, “Joseph Anton,” that goes on sale on Sept.

18. Rowling, best known for her phenomenally best-selling Harry Potter series, has written her first novel for adults, “The Casual Vacancy.”

In November Nan A. Talese/ Doubleday will release Ian McEwan’s “Sweet Tooth,” a novel featuring his first female protagonist since Briony Tallis in “Atonement.” Michael Chabon’s new novel, “Telegraph Avenue,” is scheduled for release on Sept. 11, five years after his most recent book, “The Yiddish Policemen’s Union.”

A bit crowded The pileup has left publishers jostling for shelf space and publication dates, and critics wondering how they can review all of the elite writers worthy of attention — not to mention the debut and midlist authors who might be neglected.

“You can only read so much,” said Ron Charles, the fiction editor for The Washington Post. “There are some real giants this year. It’s difficult for places like us that just run one review a day.”

Booksellers, who are preparing to stock their shelves with titles that will stay there until Christmas, have been thrilled by the lineup, saying it could be one of the richest fall seasons in five years or more.

“I just can’t imagine what October is going to look like on our shelves,” said Gayle Shanks, an owner of Chang-

ing Hands bookstore in Tempe, Ariz. “I think we’re going to have to add a few cases for fiction.”

Daniel Goldin, the owner of Boswell Book Co. in Milwaukee, said he was “thrilled” by the unusually deep selection of big fiction titles.

“It always seems like we are scrounging for literary books to sell in the fall, and wind up going back to winter and spring for inspiration,” he wrote in an email, adding that this year he was looking forward to selling books by T.C. Boyle, Sherman Alexie, Louise Erdrich and Ken Follett.

Some readers appear to be stocking up early. On Amazon, a listing for Rushdie’s memoir noted that some customers who had bought the book also preordered books

by Barbara Kingsolver, Mark Helprin, McEwan, Smith and Chabon.

The nonfiction side has its share of major titles too, including the surprise book by a former member of the Navy SEALs describing the Osama bin Laden raid, which was released on Tuesday; a Bob Woodward book on the Obama administration and the economy; a memoir by the musician Pete Townshend; and “The Oath,” Jeffrey Toobin’s study of the Obama administration and the Supreme Court.

This season may be especially compressed because of the presidential election Nov. 6, an event that several publishers privately said that they were trying to avoid, lest it take away from news media attention they might receive for their books.

Michele Filgate, the events coordinator at Community Bookstore in New York, said that when media coverage was devoted to an election, “a lot of books can get lost in the shuffle.”

“When it’s an election year, publishers tend to save their big books for the spring instead of the fall,” she said.

“This year they’re still bringing out some of the A-list authors.”

Wolfe’s new book, “Back to Blood,” set in Miami, will come out on Oct. 23, just two weeks before the election.

Books by Dennis Lehane and J.R. Moehringer are also scheduled for a fall release.

Literary legends Tom Wolfe, Michael Chabon and Ian McEwan are among the many authors with new releases this fall.

are dividing their time among genres, said Maureen Corrigan, the show’s longtime book critic.

“This week alone I’m reading a political autobiography, a debut novel and the Zadie Smith, and I’m trying to make a decision by tomorrow which one I’m going to go with,” she said. “It does seem like an embarrassment of riches.”

Some bookstores have struggled to find enough evenings for author events. Rebecca Fitting, an owner of Greenlight Bookstore in New York, said it had been at least four to five years since a fall season was crammed with so much high-profile fiction. To squeeze all of the available authors into their schedule, the store planned events on nights — like Friday — that were previously off-limits, said another owner, Jessica Stockton Bagnulo.

“Finding the space on the schedule has been an adventure,” she said. “We don’t usually host Friday night events, but for Zadie Smith, we will make an exception. It’s certainly a good problem to have.”

By Oline H. Cogdill Sun Sentinel (Florida)

Randy Wayne White’s character Marion “Doc” Ford has become one of the icons of mystery fiction. Beginning with “Sanibel Flats” in 1990, Ford’s shadowy past as a government agent often intrudes on his life as a quiet marine biologist residing on Florida’s Gulf Coast.

With “Gone,” White puts Ford on hiatus as the author

introduces Hannah Smith, a Gulf Coast fishing guide who inherited a nearly defunct private detective agency from her uncle. “Gone” illustrates that White is constantly sharpening his storytelling arsenal.

Strong and knowledgeable about the Gulf Coast waterways with its “secret cuts and tidal riffs,” Hannah is most at home behind the wheel of a boat, leading her wealthy clients to prime fishing. Fourth in a line of independent Hannah Smiths, she is quite aware of her heritage. Her off-time is spent with her spunky — but

CASCADE

Strapped for time Charles of The Washington Post added that the glut of big releases had been complicated by the extreme length of many of the books.

sage,” a vampire novel by Justin Cronin that came out in 2010, he said he might not have time to review the second book in the trilogy, “The Twelve,” which is being published in October and clocks in at 592 pages.

“In a crowded schedule like this, I just don’t know if I can get to it,” Charles said. “When we say big authors, we mean it in every sense of the word this time.”

For authors, bumping into another writer’s publication date can go unnoticed. Diaz, the author of the coming “This Is How You Lose Her,” said he and Chabon met for the first time at BookExpo America in June, but the fact that their books were both coming out the same day — next Tuesday — didn’t come up in conversation.

“Maybe if I wrote faster, I might actually notice market forces more,” Diaz said in an email. “But I write so slow and publish things so rarely, I seem to exist on another planet.”

fading — mother and her friends. Reopening the detective agency isn’t on Hannah’s agenda until her wealthy client Lawrence Seasons asks her to find his missing 30-year-old niece, Olivia, who stands to inherit $90 million. Lawrence figures that Hannah’s calm under pressure attitude and her expertise in “local knowledge” make for a good detective.

“Gone” is a most welcomed breather from the adventures of Doc Ford, who, along with his best friend, Tomlinson, makes several cameo appearances.

“When Adam delved and Eve span, who was then the gentleman?”

The question comes from a radical priest, hanged after England’s 1381 Peasant Revolt. It’s also both the epigraph to Zadie Smith’s fourth novel and a question she explores in all of them, each of which maps the fault lines — economic, racial and sexual — dividing a city against itself.

Smith’s latest marks a return to her native city; “NW” refers to a now-gentrifying area of London where both she and the four main characters in this novel were raised.

Leah is a white, well-intentioned liberal in her mid30s with a matching government job: distributing lottery proceeds to worthy charities. She is in a mixedrace marriage to a gorgeous French-African hairdresser, who is intent on getting ahead and starting a family — two things that mean little to her.

Leah’s best friend since childhood is Natalie — formerly Keisha — a barrister who made it out of the projects where she and Leah were raised. “Nat is the girl done good from their thousand-kid madhouse,” reflects Leah. “Done too good, maybe, to recall where she came from.”

Felix is a 32-year-old auto mechanic, having shelved his dreams of making films after a long detour involving too much booze and drugs.

Lurking on the margins of these three individually presented stories is Nathan, the kid from the projects who never really left — and who is caught between nostalgic images of his onetime potential and the smalltime thug he has since become.

True to Nathan’s frac-

tured life, Smith doesn’t give him a distinct narrative; his role is to interrupt others’ stories, in a novel that plays with and repeatedly undermines the fantasy that any of us can be the “sole author,” as Natalie puts it, of our lives.

Such interruptions are going to frustrate those among Smith’s readers who are looking for a reprise of “White Teeth” (2000) or particularly “On Beauty” (2005) — both outstanding novels and both fully invested in lyrical realism, with its commitment to rounded characters living richly appareled inner lives.

We get some of that vintage Smith in “NW,” especially in the stories of Leah and of Felix, which together compose the first half of the novel. Both also exhibit Smith’s sure command of dialogue, as we watch Leah try to say “hello” when a disturbing woman comes to her door, while Felix tries to say “goodbye,” in a terrific set piece involving his former lover.

But as Smith has made clear in recent essays, she has grown increasingly wary of a literary mode that helps us lose ourselves in fictional characters turned inward on themselves — rather than finding ourselves through characters looking outward and interrogating us.

Smith gives us one of these characters — reminiscent of those we meet when reading Jennifer Egan or David Foster Wallace — in Natalie, who dominates the novel’s third and longest section.

Smith herself seems unsure of how to move forward; the conclusions to both Natalie’s story and “NW” are arbitrary and unsatisfying. Maybe that’s the point, in a novel where recurring images of apple trees only serve to remind us that the gates to paradise closed a long time ago.

Green law Continued from F1

Support for law weakens Republicans and business advocates have sought for years to weaken the law, describing it as one of the most egregious examples of an overregulated economic climate that has driven so much business from the state.

But in the 42 years since Gov. Ronald Reagan signed the Environmental Quality Act into law, attacks against the measure have largely failed, a testament to the power of the environmental lobby and to the importance of environmental issues to voters here.

Still, with unemployment in the state still above 10 percent, sentiment may be turning against the law, with Democrats increasingly joining Republicans in trying to change it.

Gov. Jerry Brown declared that reforming the law was “the Lord’s work,” and in just the past several weeks, some of the state’s highest-ranking Democrats have lined up in support of fundamental changes to the act, including the leaders of both houses of the state Legislature.

Last month, Michael Rubio, a Democrat in the state Senate, introduced a bill that would have overhauled enforcement of the law. Although the bill was killed within 24 hours, he said he would try again next year.

“This is a very important law that we have to protect, but we have to strip away the possibility” of the law “being abused,” Rubio said. “These kinds are lawsuits are not living up to the intent of the law.”

This shift in attitude is pitting California Democrats, who have often been at the forefront of environmental policy, against the environmental lobby, one of their usual allies.

Currently, the Environmental Quality Act requires developers to go through a public process, in which potential impacts on the environment are studied and plans to mitigate them detailed. Almost anyone can challenge those plans in court.

Rubio’s bill would have limited these suits in some

“Striping bike lanes on a road can’t even be done without an environmental analysis. That’s the level of insanity this has gotten to.”

— Brian Nestande, California Republican assemblyman

circumstances, if the project met all other environmental standards. But environmental groups asserted that a kind of amendment limiting lawsuits against development plans would have effectively curtailed the law’s enforcement mechanism.

‘Playing the jobs card’ “It wasn’t reform. It was gutting the law,” said David Pettit, a lawyer with the National Resources Defense Council. “The California Environmental Quality Act as we’ve known it for many years protecting the environment would go away in favor of a checklist approach.”

Pettit acknowledged that the law has led to some abusive litigation, but he insisted that those cases were rare.

Less than 1 percent of all projects in the state face lawsuits under the environmental act, according to a 2005 study by the Public Policy Institute of California.

“But this issue is going to come back,” Pettit said. “The development community has never liked it, and they’re playing the jobs card now.”

Developers have said that they spend millions to strengthen their projects’ defenses against potential lawsuits. That drives up cost, they said, even when they do not get sued.

The Environmental Quality Act, they complain, has given rise to a cottage industry of people who make money suing or threatening to sue, a practice known as greenmailing, projects in their neighborhoods. It is usually cheaper, developers said, to settle out of court and pay “go-away money,” rather than risk a protracted legal battle.

Raphael Bostic, a professor at the University of Southern California’s Sol Price School

of Public Policy, said that the Environmental Quality Act had achieved its original purpose. But its overall effects have become more complicated over time.

“There is now consideration of environmental issues before development rather than after, which was one of the overarching goals,” he said.

“But now, it’s used much more regularly as a tool to stop development and make development more costly.”

Editorial pages up and down the state have endorsed reforming the law. And in July, three former governors — George Deukmejian and Pete Wilson, both Republicans, and Gray Davis, a Democrat — wrote an op-ed for the San Diego Union-Tribune advocating for “modernization” of the Environmental Quality Act.

Waiting on an overhaul In an interview, Davis said that while the original intent of the law should remain intact, the high unemployment rate made some kind of overhaul imperative.

“There are a lot of very worthwhile projects that are being stalled indefinitely for reasons largely unrelated to the environment,” Davis said.

“Maybe if they could have gotten started, people could have gotten to work a lot sooner.”

Thus far, state lawmakers have managed only relatively minor changes to the law. Last year, Brown signed legislation to fast-track a proposed football stadium in downtown Los Angeles. Another bill, which would exempt striping bicycle lanes from the Environmental Quality Act, now awaits his signature.

Despite significant bipartisan support, any major reform of the law remains a tall order in Sacramento.

Brian Nestande, a Republican assemblyman, was part of the bipartisan coalition that supported Rubio’s short-lived bill.

“There is no doubt that was a missed opportunity — it’s going to be tough to do it next session,” Nestande said.

“Striping bike lanes on a road can’t even be done without an environmental analysis.

That’s the level of insanity this has gotten to.”

A NOVELIST’S MEMOIR ON AGING

Disconnected tales mar Auster’s ‘Winter Journal’ “Winter Journal”

by Paul Auster (Henry Holt, 230 pgs., $26)

By David L. Ulin Los Angeles Times

The most evocative passage in Paul Auster’s “Winter Journal” comes early in the book. “Yes, you drink too much and you smoke too much, you have lost teeth without bothering to replace them, your diet does not conform to the precepts of contemporary nutritional wisdom,” Auster admits, referring to himself in the second person, as he does throughout this fragmentary memoir, “but if you shun most vegetables it is simply because you do not like them, and you find it difficult, if not impossible, to eat what you do not like.”

He knows it’s just good fortune that “until now, no Xray has revealed any damage to your lungs, no blood test has revealed any devastation to your liver, and so you forge on with your vile habits, knowing full well that they will ultimately do you grave harm.”

For a reader of a certain age, perhaps a male reader of a certain age, there’s a sharp shudder of recognition at the admission of minor vices, of neglect and breakdown, of the slow ravages of the body over time. As someone who shares many of these predilections, I find myself rendered nearly breathless by Auster’s willingness to tell.

This quiet honesty, this offhand sense of revelation, has marked much of Auster’s recent writing, especially the novels “The Brooklyn Follies” or “Sunset Park.” It’s as if, as he’s gotten older, he’s moved away from the selfreflective narratives (“The New York Trilogy,” “The Music of Chance”) by which he earned his reputation — as a novelist, primarily; as if he has become less interested in

structural invention than in our relationships with each other and with ourselves.

And yet, as “Winter Journal” progresses, that brief passage begins to look like a signpost on the road not taken, a marker of all that this memoir is not. Why? Because Auster cannot quite maintain his focus, falling instead into a pattern of meandering recollections about his life, from childhood until the present, that are by turns moving and self-indulgent but never coalesce behind a larger point of view.

His impulse here — to write, in quasi-journal form, the saga of his aging — is a good one, and he seeks to deepen it by weaving in the story of his mother, an unhappily married woman whose resilience (“the sumptuously decked out charmer,” he recalls her, “who dazzled the world in public”) devolves into a “metastatic flowering” of anxiety. (She died in 2002.)

This is not exactly untrammeled territory for Auster; 30 years ago, he began his career with “The Invention of Solitude,” a memoir inspired by the death of his father, a difficult, distant man whom, the author suggests, he never really knew.

“The Invention of Solitude” was a terrific debut: a relent-

less examination of not just a father-son relationship (or more to the point, nonrelationship) but also the nature of identity, family, heritage and memory. It moved outward, into a realm that borders on the mythic, as Auster used his father’s life as a fulcrum through which to move backward and forward in time.

“Winter Journal” has similar intentions: “Perhaps it is just as well,” Auster writes, “to put aside your stories for now and try to examine what it has felt like to live inside this body from the first day you can remember being alive until this one.”

The key phrase is “this body,” for Auster’s main purpose is to create “(a) catalogue of sensory data. What one might call a phenomenology of breathing” — in other words, an evocation of the self. In the face of that, his mother becomes almost an afterthought; it’s his own mortality that’s on his mind.

Don’t get me wrong: I’m sympathetic. None of us is getting any younger, after all. But for all that “Winter Journal” aspires to be an epistemology of the body, it too often falls into disconnected litanies: of childhood memories playing baseball, say, or all the places Auster has lived.

What he’s trying to do is to re-create identity, his identity, as an expression of the physical, to trace how he’s been shaped by the world. In “City of Glass” (the first book of the “New York Trilogy”), a detective follows as a subject literally writes himself onto the streets of Manhattan, his wanderings taking the shape of letters, like some sort of runic code. Yet with “Winter Journal,” Auster doesn’t reach that level of engagement or evoke in any real sense how these surfaces have influenced the way he thinks and feels.

he city of Bend has finally installed two digital parking meters in the downtown Bend Centennial Parking Garage to encourage shoppers, diners and other visitors to use the garage when parking for more than three hours.

“The idea of getting the pay and display meters in the garage was to give people more options,” said Chuck Arnold, executive director of the Downtown Bend Business Association. “(It’s) more convenient, which is the end goal.”

The city purchased four digital meters in 2008, according to The Bulletin’s archives.

Two were installed in the Mirror Pond parking lots a year later. A third was supposed to be installed in the lot at Northwest Wall Street and Northwest Greenwood Avenue and the fourth used as a spare.

But objections from some downtown merchants stopped the installation at the Wall Street and Greenwood lot, according to the archives. Plans have existed for around a year to put the remaining two in the garage, but the city had to figure out wiring issues to power the meters.

Now installed, visitors will no longer need cash to purchase a $5 all-day parking pass.

They can pay with a credit card, debit card or the new Smart Parking cards that hold credit for the meters.

The new pay stations are located in the parking garage lobby on Oregon Avenue and on the south side of Tin Pan Alley, adjacent to The Oxford Hotel, according to the Downtown Bend Business Association’s website.

doesn’t hide the fact, said Alan Dietrich, the company’s CEO; it’s just not something the employees actively promote.

Bendistillery buys 190proof alcohol, sometimes known as ethanol or neutralgrain spirits, from a large manufacturer to make its products, Dietrich said.

That’s about to change.

This week, Bendistillery will take up the role of a fullbore distiller, making gin from ingredients exclusively found on the company’s 23acre farm, such as winter wheat, Dietrich said. It should hit shelves by the holidays.

Locally distilled whiskey and rum are in development, too.

Recrafting the cabin • Airlines revamp amenities to earn ‘high-value’ fliers

By Gregory Karp Chicago Tribune

CHICAGO — After decades of relatively little change, aircraft cabins in the United States are undergoing a renaissance that promises to make the flying experience more comfortable and enjoyable for passengers, especially for those at the front of the plane.

When work-life scales are unequal • Should parents get more flexibility than their childless peers? Most colleagues say no

By Hannah Seligson New York Times News Service

Kelly Azevedo used to work upward of 70 hours a week.

It wasn’t really for the extra money. It’s just that she doesn’t have children. When colleagues were on kid duty, she had to pick up the slack.

“Parents are a special class, and they get special treatment,” said Azevedo, 27, who left her job at an Internet marketing firm to start She’s Got Systems, a website for entrepreneurs based in Sacramento. While she was covering for her former colleagues, she says, she sometimes sacrificed her own obligation to take care of her ailing grandparents.

On the Labor Day weekend, when we celebrated the American worker, or at least the last unofficial days of summer, Azevedo gave voice to what many people feel in their bones: the pursuit of “work-life balance,” which sounds so wholesome and reasonable, can be a zero-sum game in the office.

Deal junkies hurt store profits

By Anne D’Innocenzio The Associated Press

NEW YORK — Joelle Daddino is making it difficult for stores to make money.

Like many Americans who’ve grown accustomed to deep discounts, Daddino has become so obsessed with sales that she refuses to shop any place that isn’t having one. “If I don’t have a coupon or it’s not on sale, I just won’t buy it,� said the Yaphank, N.Y., resident.

During the recession, retailers had more sales to lure cash-strapped Americans into stores. Now, that strategy has backfired. It has bred a group of deal junkies that won’t shop unless they see “70 percent� signs or yellow clearance stickers. They’re a thorn in the side of most retailers because the discounts it takes to get them into stores eats away at profits. In fact, retailers’ annual profit growth has been cut in half between 2006 and last year, according to a survey of 122 merchants by Retail Metrics, a research firm.

Big chains like J.C. Penney and Lowe’s are trying to wean sale-addicted customers off of sales in favor of everyday low pricing. It’s the biggest shift in pricing in decades, but retailers have a long way to go to convince shoppers that predictable pricing is better than the temporary promotions that they’ve grown to love. In fact, early this year, nearly three-quarters of 1,000 shoppers surveyed by consumer research firm America’s Research Group said it would take discounts of at least 50 percent to get them to buy a given item. That’s up from 52 percent in 2005.

Paco Underhill, whose company Envirosell studies consumer behavior, says retailers are to blame for the increase.

He says their discounting during the downturn created shoppers who think everyday pricing “takes some fun out of� shopping. To help break the vicious cycle of discounting, Underhill says merchants have to think of ways to attract shoppers that can be just as intoxicating as two-hour sales or coupons. That could mean top-notch service or exclusive merchandise, for instance. “Sales are just like heroin,� he said.

Now, retailers are trying to replicate the success of Wal-Mart Stores Inc., the world’s largest retailer that was founded 50 years ago on “everyday low� prices. Experts say Wal-Mart’s strategy has worked because it built its reputation on being able to offer customers the lowest prices every day. In fact, the company’s revenue at stores opened at least a year in its U.S. namesake business fell for two years when it veered away from the strategy in favor of temporary price cuts.

The company has since been able to turn around its business in part by renewing its commitment to everyday low prices.

Lauren Jonker opens up a dishwasher on display at a Lowe’s store in Atlanta. During the recession, retailers used sales to lure cash-strapped shoppers, but that strategy has backfired.

Penney executives say they considered Wal-Mart’s model when they decided to change the retailer’s pricing in an attempt to turn around the Plano, Tex.-based chain that has had annual sales declines in four of the past five years.

In February, J.C. Penney Co. eliminated coupons and the nearly 600 sales it used to have annually. It lowered prices in its stores permanently by 40 percent. The company’s three-tier price strategy also included monthly sales on select items and clearance sales every other Friday. “Wal-Mart taught us all in the ’80s when you get a steady sales process, what happens?

You can manage the business better,� Penney’s CEO and former Apple executive Ron Johnson says. “All good happened from a predictable sales pattern.�

But Penney, which has 1,000 stores, has learned that it’s not so easy to duplicate WalMart’s magic. Customers have not embraced the new pricing: Penney recently reported its second consecutive quarter of big losses due to severe sales drops. And its stock has lost over 40 percent of its value since early February.

Now, Penney is changing its pricing — again — to add back more sales. Among other changes, the company began eliminating last month the monthlong sales and instead is increasing its clearance sales to every Friday. Johnson acknowledged that Penney made some mistakes in pricing, but he’s vowing to stick to the plan. “Withdrawing from our promotional model to a more everyday model has been harder than we anticipated,� Johnson told investors in August. “But it doesn’t change our conviction that the promotional model had run its course, and we have a far better path forward.�

Wendy Ruud, a former Penney’s customer, isn’t waiting around to see if Penney executives are right. The Boca Raton, Fla. resident hasn’t been back to Penney since the new pricing plan was implemented earlier this year. Instead, she’s gone to Macy’s Inc. and Sears, Roebuck and Co. for clothing. “When you have a sale, you really feel you are getting

a better deal or a bargain,�

Ruud, 49, said.

Penney isn’t the only retailer finding that everyday pricing is a tough sale to shoppers. Even merchants who are returning to their roots of offering permanently low prices are finding it tricky.

Like Wal-Mart, Lowe’s, the nation’s second largest home improvement chain, built its business around “everyday� low pricing. But then the company strayed away from that and started offering more sales when the housing market tanked in 2006. Shortly after, the company’s performance began to lag behind its bigger rival Home Depot, which never veered away from its everyday pricing strategy.

Since last summer, Lowe’s flip-flopped. It has been permanently cutting prices on a wide variety of items to better compete with Home Depot.

But the strategy hasn’t worked.

Lowe’s posted a 10 percent drop in net income amid a 0.4 percent decline in revenue at stores opened at least a year in the second quarter.

Lowe’s Cos. acknowledged that the pricing shift has been a problem. The company says it experienced light traffic over Memorial Day weekend in appliances, flooring, cabinets and countertops because of its reduced discount offerings. So executives say the retailer overcompensated by increasing promotions too much afterward, which hurt profit margins.

It’s still sticking to its everyday price plan, but it’s re-evaluating to find the right balance between everyday low prices

and temporary promotions. “We knew it was going to be difficult,� CEO Robert Niblock said. “But we may have been overly optimistic.�

Not every retailer is finding it hard to convince shoppers that everyday low pricing is better than fleeting sales.

Clothing chain Stein Mart has had some bumps, but it’s starting to see positive results from its pricing shift.

At the end of last year, Stein Mart started cutting back on coupons, which it had relied on for two years. It’s now concentrating on what made the chain successful: offering permanent discounts of up to 60 percent on major brands such as Lucky and Nine West that department stores carry at full price. The company permanently cut prices up to 8 percent on select items, though it declined to offer details.

The 260-store chain, based in Jacksonville, Fla., says it changed its pricing after it found out that coupon purchases accounted for almost a third of sales in recent years, up from just around 5 percent from 2004 through 2006. Its goal is to cut coupon use by 50 percent this year.

Stein Mart says its pricing shift has been successful in part because it has simultaneously focused on boosting its offerings of trendy, brightlycolored merchandise in stores.

It says that has helped to offset any backlash from it cutting back on coupons.

In the latest quarter, Stein Mart’s net income dropped 44 percent, dragged down by expenses related to softwarerelated costs. But revenue at stores opened at least a year rose 1.6 percent. It’s a modest increase, but it’s significant because it reversed four straight quarters of sales declines. “Our strategy is working very well for us,� the retailer’s interim CEO Jay Stein, the grandson of founder Sam Stein, told investors this month. “We’re getting back to our old self, a successful specialty-store environment at discount prices.�

Cabins Continued from G1 “We’ve seen in the last year or so some tremendous improvements in the passenger experience,” said Mary Kirby, editor-in-chief of Airline Passenger Experience magazine.

“Airlines were rather stagnant for many years in terms of what they offered.”

Some seats on long flights will recline into flat beds.

Some overhead bins will be better-designed and larger.

Seats will have on-demand movies and television, in addition to power outlets. Cabins will be equipped with wireless Internet access and mood lighting.

And, yes, some seats on these new and updated planes will have more legroom.

But airline executives facing stiff competition and high fuel costs are not making pricey changes out of benevolence.

The best goodies are reserved for passengers toward the front of the plane, sanctuary for travelers willing to pay more or those with elite frequent-flier status.

“This really boils down to a desire to win high-value customers,” said Rob Friedman, American Airlines vice president of marketing, referring to his airline’s attempt to woo mostly frequent-flying business travelers.

Upgrades in some cases mean economy class, believe it or not, will become more cramped. Fortunately, some in-cabin perks will trickle back to coach to distract attention from snug confines.

Here’s a look at cabin upgrades becoming widely available across U.S. airlines.

Legroom logistics Personal space is the most coveted of passenger amenities — and the most expensive.

“What people care first and foremost about is getting the best possible price, and then they want to make sure that when they stand up from their airplane ride they can still feel their knees,” said Henry Harteveldt, a travel industry analyst with Atmosphere Research Group.

An aircraft fuselage has only so many square feet, so seat configuration is a zerosum puzzle. If an airline gives more space in one section, it must recover it from somewhere else or forego revenue by removing seats.

“Airlines personify the saying ‘robbing Peter to pay Paul,’” Harteveldt said. “If Paul wants more legroom, Peter is going to have less.”

Many airlines now allow you to pay for more legroom.

United Airlines was the pioneer and calls it Economy Plus. American calls it Main Cabin Extra, Delta Air Lines calls it Economy Comfort, and JetBlue Airways calls it Even More Space. Some airlines throw in a few extras, too. For example, American allows priority boarding with upgrades to Main Cabin Extra, which it sells for $8 to $108 per flight.

In reality, this new class of seat is what business class used to be.

“Legroom is clearly what people value,” said Joe Brancatelli, a business-travel writer and editor of JoeSentMe .com. “They want it for free, of course, but they will pay for it.”

Business class is the next step up in overall amenities, and increasingly, the only other choice. Many airlines are eliminating traditional first class.

“Business class has become so elaborate, you don’t need first class anymore,” Bran-

Parking Continued from G1 “We have plenty of good long-term options, but it’s human nature to (park) in that on-street spot,” Arnold said.

“We are trying to get people into utilizing the garage that all the taxpayers funded.”

The meters are part of a strategy to encourage visitors who want to spend more than two hours downtown to park in the garage, where they can have a third hour of free parking. If more motorists park in the garage, the on-street spots will turn over faster, Arnold said, providing more potential customers for downtown businesses.

Downtown parking has been an issue for years, with much debate over ensuring downtown patrons — not employees — filled the free spaces.

Changing planes To squeeze more passengers onto planes and make the experience more enjoyable, airlines are rolling out redesigned cabins. Some changes are for all passengers, while others are reserved for those with deeper pockets. Here is a sample: Wi-Fi on more flights including on-demand access c to movies and nd TV

More attention to cabin design, including contours and LED lighting

More overhead storage

recline Less recline

Larger L ge chairs t recline that r into b beds for elite t travelers

The updated first-class section of a United Boeing 777 offers more legroom, seats that go completely flat for sleeping and nicer remote controls for movies, audio.

catelli said.

The ultimate in legroom is lying down. For international and some coast-to-coast domestic flights, airlines are adding seats that recline into beds. Early versions had the head somewhat elevated, but the new standard is full-flat seats that recline parallel with the cabin floor.

“Now, the cost of doing business for long-haul business class is fully flat seats, and we’re seeing that across the board,” Kirby said.

Kent Craver, Chicago-based Boeing’s regional director for passenger satisfaction and revenue, is in charge of plane interiors for the plane-maker.

“Airlines are improving (their) product in the areas where passengers are willing to pay for it. Real estate on an airplane is some of the most expensive real estate in the world,” Craver said. “You have a lot of people in economy, but it hasn’t really changed significantly.”

After eliminating many economy-class services, such as free food and free checked bags, some U.S. airlines are squeezing even more from coach, further reducing legroom as they install more chairs or yield the space to higher-paying customers.

“Everybody’s upgrading their business-class cabins, but it’s coming at the expense of coach,” Brancatelli said.

For example, American’s refresh of its two-aisle Boeing 777s will squeeze in another seat across coach, going from its current nine seats wide to 10. United’s new Boeing 787 Dreamliner will have nine seats across, compared with two Japanese airlines that al-

The city adopted a downtown transportation and parking plan a decade ago. It also created a parking validation program to waive parking fines for shoppers who could show a receipt for at least a $10 purchase; then because of abuse by downtown employees and business owners, it made violation of the program a Class B civil infraction, which carries a maximum penalty of $400.

While downtown employees could also use the newly installed meters, Arnold said they are encouraged to purchase monthly permits to park in designated lots and sections of streets around downtown.

From Jan. 1 through Aug. 31, the $5 fee was paid to park 4,088 vehicles in the garage, said Todd Clifford, city manager at Diamond Parking, the company hired by the city

ready use the plane configured with eight seats across.

Southwest’s new planes will have thinner seats but will add another row. That means legroom, which is called seat pitch in the business, will go from 32 inches to 31. And seats will recline 2 inches instead of 3.

In August, United confirmed that it, too, will switch to slimmer seats on its narrow-body Airbus planes. The changeover, which will allow it to add a row of seats, begins next year.

Thinner seats have received mixed reviews among passengers at European airlines, which were first to adopt them, Kirby said. But Kirby recently flew such a seat on Lufthansa and described it as “rather comfortable.”

“I was pretty impressed in terms of what they were able to do in terms of carving out space for knees and shins,” she said. “I think most people won’t notice.”

JetBlue Airways and WestJet in August said they will add more legroom for those willing to pay extra at the expense of back-of-the-bus passengers who will be slightly more cramped as a result.

Perhaps losing a few cubic inches here or there wouldn’t matter as much if you were likely to have an empty seat next to you, so you can spread out. But that is decidedly unlikely. U.S. airlines, as a business strategy, are flying much fuller planes nowadays, which means fewer empty seats for elbow room.

Tech for all As people carry more mobile devices and expect to be constantly connected — even

to manage parking. During the same time period, 604 vehicles received citations for overtime parking in the garage.

The penalty for an overtime parking ticket anywhere downtown starts at $22, Clifford said. But, under the city’s habitual parking offender code, the penalty doubles, triples or quadruples — jumping from $44 to $66 to $88 — depending on how many previous violations have been issued in a 365-day period.

The goal is to discourage people from abusing downtown parking by initiating additional fines, he said.

“I think everybody is going to take advantage of (the new meters),” he said. “Visitors from larger-sized cities are used to seeing these kind of meters. These are very popular in downtown areas.”

flying isn’t the refuge from the office it once was — airlines are adding wireless Internet and standard power outlets in the seat to keep those devices functioning at 30,000 feet. For those off the clock, airlines are

offering on-demand movies and television, usually for an extra charge.

The good news is that many of the technology upgrades are available in coach, too.

“All this in-flight entertainment and connectivity give the airlines the ability to distract passengers’ brains from the pain of being in these ultrasnug seat pitches in economy class,” Kirby said.

Wi-Fi, in particular, is becoming a standard offering on mainline aircraft; regional jets generally don’t offer Internet access, with Delta a notable exception.

“It will be increasingly available and, importantly, it is increasingly expected by the traveler, especially business travelers,” Harteveldt said. But Wi-Fi today can vary in speed quality and sometimes be unbearably slow if too many people use it at once, he said.

For those who don’t bring their own screens, seat-back monitors are becoming common, with some in premiumclass seats as large as 15 inches diagonally.

The future on some planes and routes won’t be seat monitors, however. Airlines are likely to provide enough bandwidth for passengers to stream video content on their own devices, whether a computer or

G3

tablet, with some additional content offerings, such as movies, games and duty-free shopping.

“Traditionally, it’s been the airline’s responsibility to keep you entertained,” Brancatelli said. Going forward, airlines will offer Wi-Fi and outlets, and passengers can use their own devices for entertainment.

American will even offer premium passengers on certain flights use of a Samsung Galaxy tablet computer and pricey Bose noise-canceling headphones.

Sensory shift In-cabin ambience will be improving on many flights.

For example, new workhorse Boeing 737 planes are likely to have the Boeing Sky Interior, which evokes a greater sense of space. The interior, developed as an outcrop of the 787 Dreamliner cabin design, has been ordered as an option on more than 90 percent of new planes and first started showing up in the U.S. in late 2010 on Continental Airlines, Craver said.

“It was really a step change in our interior philosophy,” Craver said, adding that passengers have an emotional reaction to the airplane simply based on the way it looks.

A tremendous amount of research went into the design, which when tested seemed to affect how pleasurably humans perceived the cabin. Boeing used a psychologist, a cultural anthropologist and focus groups all over the world to go beyond what passengers say they want to what passengers don’t even know they need.

The Boeing Sky Interior includes sophisticated LED color-changing lighting, along with new side panels and overhead bins, all of whose lines and contours are designed to work together.

The interior is meant to make passengers feel calmer, connected and more welcomed — a diffuser for the stress created by traffic en route to the airport, security-line hassles and boarding bungles.

SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 2012 • THE BULLETIN

Balance Continued from G1 In theory, flextime seems like an everyone-wins proposition. But one person’s worklife balance can be another’s work-life overload. Someone, after all, has to make that meeting or hit that deadline.

As a result, many Americans who work for companies that embrace flexible hours are confronting a sort of office class warfare. Some employees have come to expect that the demands of their children, in particular, will be accommodated — and not all of their colleagues are happy about it.

These tensions are hardly new. But at a time when many Americans are struggling to find or keep jobs — and when many of us are being asked to do more with less — the issue has come to the fore.

Child care has long been the third rail in this conversation, and it is receiving renewed attention in no small part because of a recent article in The Atlantic by Anne-Marie Slaughter. She discussed the moment she realized that she was unable to hold down a high-level State Department job and attend to her two adolescent boys. While advocating workplace flexibility for everyone, Slaughter stressed the special problems that women face balancing their careers with children.

Slaughter, 53, says both mothers and fathers should be “open and indeed proud” to leave early for the sake of their children and deplores the notion that spending more hours in the office automatically translates into getting more work done. But sometimes there is no substitute for office face time.

It’s not just the moms who are juggling.

“My kids have swim classes that start at 5 p.m.,” said Aziz Gilani, 32, a director at DFJ Mercury, a Houston-based venture capital firm. “The net result is that I’m sure there are times when my partners are expecting me to be in the office and my office is empty because I’m doing one of these parental commitments. I’m sure it creates a burden for them.”

Gilani says it helps that two of his four partners also have young children, but that also means he’s often on the other side. “Sometimes I need an answer immediately, because what we work on is often time-sensitive, but my partner is at soccer practice

Distill Continued from G1 “The whole history of distilled spirits in the United States was driven by farmers and small producers doing something with agriculture products that they had available to them,” Dietrich said.

“All of our (American liquor) styles grew out of excess grains that were available.

“We want to revive that tradition. It’s not (going to be) the foundation of our company, but at least the soul of our company will be the traditional American distilled spirits.”

At least initially, products sourced exclusively from the Bendistillery farm will com-

her hiring decisions. “I have to know that people are going to show up and that if something arises they will fall back onto their own system,” she said.

So what’s the solution?

Jim Wilson / New York Times News Service

Lily Starling, owner of Downtown Davis Massage and Wellness, gives a massage in Davis, Calif. Starling has had to pick up extra shifts from employees who were unavailable because of child care responsibilities.

So what should an employee tell the boss when life bumps up against the job? “I think the default is to focus on, ‘Where am I going?’” said Williams Yost, who has advised the United Nations, Microsoft and Johnson & Johnson, among others, on flexible work strategies. “Instead, employees should focus on, ‘How am I going to get my job done?’”

Problems with work overload often stem from poor implementation, Henry says.

Companies should put one person in charge of overseeing all of the employees who are working these compressed schedules, tracking their hours, and looking at the assignments and how they are staffed, she says. “An effective work-life program is one where an employee gains flexibility while continuing to be responsive and accessible to colleagues and clients,” she said.

with his daughter and that has created a decent amount of inconvenience.”

“It’s rough,” he said, but office technology enables them to work around the problem.

Gilani says there has never been a major spat at his firm over the issue. But Deborah Epstein Henry, founder of FlexTime Lawyers, has found that colleague resentment is very common. “It’s the reason that a lot of work-life balance programs fail,” said Henry, whose firm, based in Ardmore, Pa., advises law firms and other organizations on flexibility policies. “In an ideal world, no one else is saddled with more work if their colleague works a reduced schedule.”

However, reality often strays far from the ideal.

Megan, 31, an associate at a large law firm in Washington who asked that her last name not be used because of the delicacy of the issue, says that when she worked on a case with a more senior lawyer who had a part-time schedule because she had three children, Megan ran the whole

That gets into the fraught territory that is at the center of this debate. Who, if anyone, has the work-life balance higher ground: The mother with three children, the son taking care of elderly parents, or the 20-something who is learning Mandarin once a week? And should the reasons even matter and be brought to the table in the first place?

“My advice is to remove the why — take the reason out of it,” said Cali Williams Yost, chief executive of Flex and Strategy Group/Work and Life Fit, a research and consulting firm based in Madison, N.J. “You shouldn’t say, ‘I’m leaving at 3 p.m. to take my kid to a soccer game,’” she said, “because what about the person who has to take their parent to chemotherapy or the person who needs to go to marriage counseling?”

Often, the culprit in these situations is lack of communication, says Williams Yost, the author of the forthcoming book “Tweak It: Make What Matters to You Happen Every Day.” Just ask Megan, the junior associate. “If the woman I was working with had said to me, ‘I’m going to be checked out, can you run everything?’

I would have been fine with that,” she said.

Those conversations, however, do not happen enough.

In a survey of more than 600 employees about work-life balance and flexibility conducted in March 2011, only 52 percent of respondents said that they talked to their colleagues about changes in how, when and where they worked. In other words, many co-workers are left to scramble because a

colleague neglected to say he was leaving early, working from home that day or taking every Friday in August off.

Employees often do a better job of communicating and coordinating with their supervisor than with their direct reports and co-workers, according to Williams Yost, whose firm commissioned the survey, which is done every two years.

“Without communication, our flexibility program would not work,” said Blair S. Murphy, 40, a tax partner at Ernst & Young, the global accounting firm, in Boston.

Murphy works closely with a female colleague who leaves every day at 5 p.m. to relieve her child care provider. He, in turn, leaves early two days a week in the spring to coach his son’s Little League team.

“Our group is constantly communicating,” he said. “Everyone basically knows where everyone else is at all times.”

For some, though, there are benefits to taking on other people’s work.

Lily Starling, 29, says that when she worked as a massage therapist at large hotel chains, she would often pick up extra shifts from employees who could not make appointments because of child care responsibilities. In addition to bringing in more money, “it gave me the opportunity to advance my career,” said Starling, who is now the owner of Downtown Davis Massage and Wellness in Davis, Calif.

“If you can sacrifice your personal life, there is great incentive if people are pulling themselves out of the equation,” she said.

But Starling says her experience of having to cover for colleagues so many times has made her more cautious in

prise less than 1 percent of total sales, he said.

The practice of making vodka and other products with neutral-grain spirits likely won’t be disappearing from Bendistillery’s operations anytime soon, but it won’t be Bendistillery’s sole function anymore.

Using neutral-grain spirits from other companies as a key ingredient is commonplace in the industry, Dietrich said, and figures from the American Distilling Institute back that up.

About 60 percent of U.S. distilleries follow that practice, said Bill Owens, founder and president of the for-profit organization.

“A lot of people are building the brand … before they build the distillery,” Owens said.

“Reversing it like that is not a problem. You’ve got to pay the bills.”

That’s why Owens thinks highly of Bendistillery for starting to distill gin and other spirits exclusively from onfarm ingredients.

Considered a pioneer in the craft, or microdistilling, industry, Bendistillery has grown in recent years.

In 1996, when the company began, the Oregon Liquor Control Commission delivered a small supply — three or more Bendistillery liquor bottles — to the state’s Top 50 liquor stores, the company’s

founder and former CEO, Jim Bendis, told The Bulletin at the time.

“I just want to be known as the guy who makes that awesome gin and vodka,” Bendis said in 1996.

Bendis passed the CEO title to Dietrich earlier this year but remains involved in company operations, Dietrich said.

In 2010, the company moved from a suite in a northeast Bend industrial building to its current location next to U.S. Highway 20 northwest of Tumalo. This year, it has constructed two new storage buildings on the property.

In July, 554 cases of Bendistillery’s Crater Lake Vodka in

1.75-liter bottles sold in Oregon, making it the OLCC’s 103rd best-selling product out of more than 5,000, according to commission data.

Bendistillery spirits are also available in 17 other states, according to the company’s website.

Releasing high-quality products at a good value has always been a very high priority, said Dietrich, the current CEO. And that spirit does not appear to have changed much with age.

Brad Irwin, who distills whiskey and other products through his Bend company Oregon Spirit Distillers, welcomes Bendistillery’s shift.

“I’m glad that they’re doing

Williams Yost says we need to start by “de-parenting” and “de-gendering” the conversation. “You may cover for me during my son’s soccer game, but I may cover for you while you take your mother to the doctor,” she said. “That’s how we can stop overburdening people,” she added. “No good flexibility policy ever put in place was for parents only.”

But even well-designed policies cannot always accommodate the reality that many industries are deadline-driven or not particularly conducive to balance.

At Ernst & Young the policy is that everyone, no matter their age or life circumstances, has equal claims on flexibility — there is no work-life balance trump card, says Karyn Twaronite, Americas inclusiveness officer at Ernst & Young in New York. While implementation varies slightly by practice area and group, employees, whether they play in a weekly basketball league or need to pick up their children from school, can mold their schedules, to a certain degree, to fit their personal lives.

“When we first gave this a shot back in the 1990s, it did have the tendency to build resentment on some teams, but we moved away from fixing it as a ‘woman problem’ to fixing the environment,” Twaronite said. “We also didn’t want working parents to feel embarrassed about taking time off.”

Who gets priority, though, if one employee’s son has his backto-school night on the same night as another’s poker game?

“People switch on and off, and there is a lot of transparency,” Twaronite said. She took advantage of the company’s flexibility program to leave early two nights a week to attend business school at Fordham University from 1992 to 1995 and to take off a few Fridays a month when her son was younger.

Murphy says there are times when he has to pick up the slack between 5 and 7 p.m. because his colleague leaves at 5. But it’s a two-way street; his colleague covers for Murphy, too. “I don’t feel like I’m working more because of someone’s else’s flexibility,” he said, “I just feel like I’m working differently.”

New name for better truck Finding source

of Tracer’s stalling will take sleuthing

By Larry Printz The Virginian-Pilot

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Never mind that, almost since its inception, a leaping Ram was used as Dodge’s radiator mascot. Never mind that over the past few decades, many Dodge trucks have used the name Ram. Starting with the 2013 model year, the trucks produced by Chrysler will be known as R E V IEW Rams, not Dodge Rams. Ram is now more than a model name; it’s a marque in its own right, alongside Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep.

Semantics aside, the Ram sees some significant improvements this year, although you might be hard-pressed to tell from the exterior, unless you already own a Ram truck.

So you might not notice that the grille, lighting, hood and wheels are new. Or that each trim level is given distinctive grille textures to their price point. But you might sense that this year’s grille is 30 mm taller than the 2012 model’s.

“On a Ram, you can never make the grille too big,” said Joe Dehner, head of Ram and Dodge exterior design.

That’s true; subtlety hasn’t been part of this truck’s DNA for some time. But the Ram does look more refined, mostly because of its improved aerodynamics aimed at improving fuel economy. Going further, the Ram’s grille employs shutters that close when the engine doesn’t need to be cooled.

That’s all well and good; it reduces the Ram’s drag coefficient to .360 from .386. But most importantly, the truck’s driveline has been replaced.

The 2012 Dodge Ram used a wheezy 215-horsepower 3.7liter V-6 that produced a mere 215 horsepower and, with its ancient four-speed automatic transmission, returned fuel economy of 14 mpg city, 20 mpg highway. You can almost hear the oil barons raising a toast to this engine.

Mercifully, that driveline has been replaced for 2013 by Chrysler’s new 305-hp 3.6-liter “Pentastar” V-6 engine and new eight-speed automatic transmission which has been dubbed the “TorqueFlite 8.”

This heart transplant transforms the base Ram pickup from a truck that you’re stuck with because you can’t afford a V-8 into a truck well worth considering — especially if you’re looking for better fuel economy.

The standard rear-drive Ram V-6 returns 17 mpg city, 25 mpg highway according to the EPA. Opt for the fuel-efficient HFE model, and it gains an extra mile per gallon around town.

“When we did the research back in ’05,” said Bob Hegbloom, director of the Ram

The 2013 Ram 1500. Starting with the 2013 model year, the trucks produced by Chrysler Group LLC will be known as Rams, not Dodge Rams.

A:

2013 Ram 1500 Base price: $22,120 As tested: Not available Type: Quad cab truck with a 5-foot-7-inch to 8-foot bed Engine: 3.6-liter “Pentastar” V-6 engine mated with an eight-speed automatic transmission Mileage: 17 mpg city, 25 mpg highway

truck brand, “99 percent of the people said, ‘I will not sacrifice power, performance or capability for fuel economy.’ Well, that’s changed.”

Of course, fuel economy is useless if you can’t haul or tow.

Here too, Ram has it covered.

The new V-6 has an additional 90 horsepower when compared to the old V-6, an increase of 42 percent. Fuel economy has also increased by more than 20 percent. Towing is now rated at 6,500 pounds.

On the HFE model, Ram installs a start/stop system on the V-6, which shuts the engine off when coming to a stop, restarting it when you lift your foot off the brake to increase fuel economy. The system can be shut off.

The V-8 option For those who must have a V8 engine, the 310-hp 4.7-liter V-8 returns, although you have to wonder why. The superior fuel economy and similar power of the V-6 renders this engine redundant. The 395-hp Hemi 5.7-liter V-8 is a better choice.

Both V-8s are mated to the sixspeed automatic used last year, but the Hemi V-8 will be paired with the new TorqueFlight 8 transmission later this year.

While the Ram folks were fiddling around, they made all sorts of changes to things that you can’t see, but can feel, like the optional air suspension system first used on the Grand Cherokee. It allows the ride to be controlled automatically or through one of five modes.

“Normal” is the default mode, which sets ground clearance at

8.7 inches. “Aero Mode” lowers the truck a half inch. In contrast, “Off-road 1” raises the Ram 1.2 inches higher than “Normal mode,” while “Offroad 2” lifts the truck 2 inches.

Finally, “Park Mode” lowers the vehicle 2 inches below “Normal” for easier entry and exit.

This added technology works remarkably well, no matter which of the many configurations you choose. Both rear-wheel and four-wheel drive is offered. Cab styles consist of regular, Quad, or fourdoor Crew Cabs attached to 5-foot-7-inch, 6-foot-4-inch and 8-foot bed lengths. Trim levels include Tradesman, Express, SLT, Sport, Laramie and Longhorn. A high-efficiency HFE model will also be available.

At the press introduction for the Ram, I had the chance to sample two Crew Cab models: an SLT equipped with the V-6 and eight-speed transmission, and a top-of-the-line Laramie Longhorn 4 x 4 with the Hemi V-8 and six-speed transmission.

V-6 is sufficient What’s surprising is how satisfying the new V-6 is for most applications. Unless you’re hauling something truly heavy, the V-6 should provide all of the power you need. The new eight-speed shifts promptly and helps the V-6 easily return or exceed its EPA mileage ratings.

The Hemi had noticeably more power, but unless you need the towing capacity, it may not be worth giving up the V-6’s fuel economy.

Handling is a pleasant surprise for a pickup. While the Ram still suffers from a bit of ambiguity in its feel — like all pickups — the new electric power steering is quick and nicely weighted, but somewhat lacking in feel.

The suspension is well controlled when driving on road, yet soft enough to remain comfortable in off-road situations or on construction sites.

The Ram felt just as capable and comfortable off-road as on.

Like the rest of the truck,

EUROPEAN MARKET

Analysts urge GM to drop Opel

By Nathan Bomey Detroit Free Press

DETROIT — Morgan Stanley auto analysts on Thursday recommended that General Motors jettison its struggling Opel unit, which is piling up losses for the automaker in Europe.

The move adds pressure for GM to consider a sweeping move, instead of incremental steps, to fix its problems in Europe.

The experts, including lead analyst Adam Jonas, recommended a “separation” of GM and Opel, which is bleeding cash as European consumers pull back on spending in the midst of the continent’s sovereign debt crisis. The analysts said it was the “best option for both GM and Opel stakeholders.”

The recommendation “reflects a significant deterioration in the European car market and widening operating losses,” the analysts said in a research report.

Discharging Opel would be something of a do-over for

it’s warmed up, it stalls. If I turn on the air conditioning, it will idle OK. Is it the valve seats or a sensor?

The process of elimination can be expensive.

When dealing with drivability issues, always remember to start with the simple stuff first.

In this case, the reason the engine continues to idle with the air conditioning engaged is the step-up in idle speed commanded by the powertrain control module.

The first things to try would be to clean the injectors and decarbonize the induction system with a fuel system/fuel injection cleaner like Sea Foam or GM’s Top Engine Cleaner. Then check for any type of vacuum leak that could lean out the idle.

And check for splits or tears in the rubber boots and hoses downstream from the throttle body and mass airflow sensor.

I have a ’94 Geo Tracker with the 1.6-liter engine. After the car sits overnight, it never seems to start on the first turn of the key. On the second turn of the key, it seems to start right away with no problems. I’m concerned about this because with winter coming, I’m afraid it might put excess wear on the battery and perhaps not start at all on the coldest mornings. Where should I start?

Have a shop connect a fuel-pressure gauge to the end of the fuel rail to check the fuel pressure. The fuel pressure should be 3643 psi with key on/engine off when the fuel pump first runs for three seconds. With the engine running, the fuel pressure should be 30-37 psi.

Ten minutes after shutdown, the fuel pressure should still be 26 psi or higher.

GM, which came close to selling Opel during the auto crisis in 2009. At the time, several executives, including current GM Vice Chairman and European restructuring chief Stephen Girksy, convinced the company to keep the unit.

Ridding itself of Opel would be costly for GM. Morgan Stanley suggested it would cost $7 billion to $13 billion to off-load the Germany-based unit, which develops and manufactures cars throughout Europe. GM had about $33 billion in cash or equivalents at the end of the second quarter.

Good for stock The analysts predicted it could lead to a 50 percent appreciation in GM’s stock price.

GM is making big profits in North America and China, but its stock price has been weighed down by Europe and other factors.

A big price increase in GM shares could be a boon to the U.S. government, which still owns 32 percent of GM’s

common stock.

GM lost $617 million in Europe in the first six months of 2012, compared to a $107 million profit a year earlier. The automaker has lost an average of more than $1 billion a year in Europe for the past 12 years.

“Opel’s distraction and financial burden represents a far greater threat to GM than the unfunded pensions,” Morgan Stanley said in a research note.

Unions have a tight grip in the region — and particularly in Germany, where labor laws make it expensive and cumbersome to reduce capacity and close plants.

GM recently negotiated a tentative deal with union IG Metall and German works councils to close an Opel plant in Bochum, Germany, after 2016. The labor groups also recently agreed to 20 “short workdays” for about 9,000 workers in Ruesselsheim and Kaiserslautern. That deal is expected to save GM about $50 million.

the Ram has seen extensive interior upgrades, making even lesser models much more pleasant. While high-end models get stitched leather trim and real walnut veneer, lower models still have plenty of soft surfaces and nicely textured plastics.

Center console The center stack used in last year’s high end models is now being used on entry-level Rams, while upper-end models get a new 8.4-inch monitor in the center of the instrument panel and a smaller 7-inch information screen in the instrument cluster.

Trucks that have an eightspeed transmission now employ an easy to use rotary knob mounted in the center of the instrument panel to the right of the steering wheel, along with buttons for the transfer case. Six-speed transmissions retain their traditional levers.

Sound fancy for a truck?

Maybe. But Ram folks have really tried to enhance the driving experience. Two thoughtful touches make the point.

First, the electric door locks now also lock the tailgate and the optional Ram Boxes, the built-in storage boxes integrated into the side of the cargo bed. Secondly, the truck can now be transformed into a wireless hot spot, handy for those who use their trucks as rolling offices.

Like many models throughout Chrysler’s lineup, taken together, these changes clearly make the 2013 Ram 1500 far superior to the 2012 Dodge Ram it replaces — no matter what you may call it.

Q:

A:

The typical cause for a delayed but normal cold start is a bleed-down of fuel pressure after shutdown so that there’s inadequate fuel pressure at the injectors at startup. Try repeatedly turning the key to the “on” position for several seconds then “off” before cranking the engine. Doing so may rebuild the fuel pressure so that the engine starts the first time you crank it. If so, remember this simple technique for those cold winter mornings.

Another remote possibility is a weak battery or battery connections that pull voltage down below about 10 volts when the starter is first engaged.

My wife’s car is a 2002 Saturn Vue AWD V-6 with only 29,000 miles on it.

The problem started in 2008 at approximately 19,000 miles.

While driving, the throttle will intermittently cut out. The engine keeps running but there is no throttle response when the gas pedal is depressed. To recover from this situation, the car needs to be restarted. The dealer found P2135 and P2176 codes indicating an issue with the throttle position sensor, or TPS. They cleared the codes but the “Service Engine Soon” light comes on again the next day. The throttle plate and connector were replaced, and 2,000 miles later the problem was back.

The primary suspect, which was addressed with the throttle plate and connector replacement, was a poor connection at the engine harness-to-throttle body connection. GM later issued another bulletin addressing this scenario (P2135 code), TSB .03-08-45-003D dated February 2006, that identifies a poor connection in the 40-pin instrument panel-to-body inline connector located behind the left hinge pillar molding.

Inspect this connector for bent or corroded pins.

Back on TV with a new daytime talk show, Katie Couric opens up about raising her two girls, looking for love again, and the value of taking risks

READY TO

large Dutch Colonial set amid old shade trees and manicured lawns on Long Island, N.Y. Dressed in a white T-shirt and red shorts on this July day, she looks, at 55, tan, youthful, and rested. And she has, in fact, been on a bit of a holiday. Since leaving the CBS Evening News in 2011 and joining Disney/ABC, she has tweaked her former Today colleagues by temporarily hosting Good Morning America and giddily covered the Queen’s Jubilee. But beginning tomorrow, she returns full-time to daytime TV with the launch of her syndicated show Katie, one of five new daytime talk shows this fall.

If Couric has a great-looking leg up on the competition, it comes from her ability to juggle serious fun with empathy for great loss. Couric’s beautifully decorated home is filled with reminders of her late husband, Jay Monahan, a lawyer and Civil War enthusiast who died of colon cancer in 1998 at age 42. She picks up a silver-framed photo and gently caresses the glass. “Oh,

SECRET OF HER SUCCESS

“Fame is not what drives famous people. What fuels them is feeling passion about something, then focusing on it and being good at it,” says Couric, photographed Aug. 3 in New York City.

What was it about him that attracted you?

PARADE: When you joined the CBS Evening

News, becoming the first solo female network nightly news anchor, you took a big risk that didn’t work out. What did you learn?

KATIE COURIC: Obviously, I’m not risk-averse. I

was brought to CBS to do a different kind of newscast. In the first weeks, it was a little different, but ultimately—and I fault nobody for this—there was no guarantee a retooled newscast would bring a bigger audience. If I had been offered a traditional newscast, I probably wouldn’t have gone, because it didn’t necessarily play to my strengths. I like interacting with people. I did the best job I could, and our political coverage was unparalleled. I started in third place [in the ratings]. We stayed in third place. And CBS still is in third place.

It was tough but character-building.

Do you think one reason it didn’t work was that men still feel threatened by powerful women?

KC: I think men and women do sometimes. But

you can’t pin everything on that. Our culture has become very vitriolic, where there is some kind of perverse pleasure in seeing people fail.

And now there are so many more outlets to spew that vitriol.

What did you think of the way Ann Curry was dismissed from the Today show in June?

I don’t know what was happening behind the scenes. Those kinds of changes are painful unless everybody’s on board. I felt terrible for her. It was uncomfortable and upsetting. On the other hand, I don’t think [the show] was clicking in the way it should have, for whatever reason.

KC:

There has been speculation of a rivalry between you and Diane Sawyer, who is also at ABC. …

KC: Have you ever heard of two guys having a

cat fight? I never hear stories of conflict between Bob Schieffer and David Gregory.

HER PRIDE AND JOY

Couric with daughters Carrie, 16 (left), and Ellie, 21, in 2011, and with Jay in 1997. “My kids—knock wood—have watched the way I live my life, and have, I think, really strong values.

They’ve always been socially conscious.”

Diane has always been great to me. Yes, we’ve been competitors, but she has been incredibly welcoming and gracious and wonderful to me since I came to ABC. How do you protect your daughters from the negative spillover ?

KC: Well, I’ve been on television since they were born. This is what their mom does for a living.

Off camera we have a pretty ordinary life. My kids—knock wood—have watched the way I live my life, and have, I think, really strong values. They’ve always been socially conscious.

Like how you were raised?

KC: My

values were shaped by my parents and what [they] emphasized, which was the value of hard work and honesty. They taught us to care about other people, and I think I do have an innate empathy. [Couric and her three siblings were brought up in Arlington, Va., by their journalist father John, who died in 2011, and mother Elinor, 89.]

Were you popular with boys?

KC: [laughs] I was a pretty popular kid in general. I’m a pleaser. I’m fun-loving. I exude a positive energy that people respond to.

How did you meet Jay Monahan?

KC:

At a party in Virginia. He

KC: I was lucky to meet him when I did— because I was ready. By then I had seen too many women give up the idea of having a family for their career. For a time I thought I’d do that, too. But I think I had an epiphany and I decided, you know, I’m going to try to meet someone I can marry and have kids with and who will be a life partner for me. I started forcing myself to meet a lot of people. I went out with a heart transplant surgeon, and we talked about valves. That got old fast. [laughs] But then I met Jay. He had this Old World elegance and charm. He was highly intelligent with a good sense of humor, tremendous integrity—the go-to guy in his big family. I respected him instantly. I always thought I would marry a man with dark, curly hair. One night I told him, “You’re everything I’ve ever looked for.”

Can you talk about how you dealt with the grief of his passing?

KC: When you’re confronted with terrible suffering and loss, you feel so utterly powerless.

Debilitated. You can choose to end your life, to stop living. Or you can try to heal and have a sense of purpose. When Jay died, I had a 2-year-old and a 6-year-old. I wanted to provide them with a happy home; that’s what enabled me to go on. I had to learn a lot about cancer when Jay was sick. It was like learning a foreign language in two months. After he died, I thought, “I have to do something.” I established the Jay Monahan Center for Gastrointestinal Health at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, and I support the National Colorectal Cancer Research Alliance. And then about five years ago I wanted to expand my efforts to all cancers, because one person dies of cancer every minute in this country. My sister died of pancreatic cancer, and Jay’s mother of ovarian cancer. So along with [eight other women], we started Stand Up to Cancer.

KATIE TELLS ALL

What are you looking for in a relationship?

Another great man. Who says you only find one? I’m looking for someone who is kind, who enjoys his work, shares my values, wants

look,” she says quietly, and smiles. “Isn’t he handsome?” Also heavily featured in the family pictures are the couple’s daughters, Carrie, 16, and Ellie, 21, whose mom is thrilled to share what they’ve been up to. “Carrie is in Laos building wells for villagers,” Couric says proudly, “and Ellie [who interned at HBO this summer] teaches kids at a New Haven school about safe sex. She’ll be a senior at Yale this fall.” As we sit together in a sunny parlor, Couric looks back on the past few years and talks about why she’s excited about moving forward.

Smart Luxuries—Surprising Prices

A: A book could be written on this subject (and probably has been), but the general guideline is this: Leave the place tidier than it was when you got there. Straighten the rug, strip the bed (with sheets neatly folded), air the room (or leave a gift of a scented candle or potpourri, a nice touch), make sure books and knickknacks are where you found them.

In fact, put everything back where it belongs; errant dishes, for example, go in the dishwasher.

Most important, during your stay, adhere to your hosts’ schedule (no Rock of Ages soundtrack at 3 a.m., unless your friends also happen to be nocturnal), and—I can’t emphasize this enough— let them know the exact time you’re leaving. Then stick to it.

We live in an area which is known for very cold winters. Our facility is nearly 7000 square feet in area. When we began to utilize the first unit we were amazed to see how even the heat was for the entire living room area. We ordered a second and a third unit which now warms the entire home. Much to our surprise we are saving over $250 a month and had the lowest expense for heating we have ever experienced here. I would heartily recommend your products to anybody who is interested in really nice, even heat in their home and also interested in saving on their utility expenses.

Dennis Crystal, Troy, MT (Retired Airline Pilot)

Enclosed you will find printouts of our electric bill and gas/heating/cooking bills for 2007 - 2008. Our gas company, AmeriGas, stated that more money was saved than would show up because of the cost going up. We would turn the gas on early in the morning and turn it down to 60 degrees; We would use the EdenPURE ® heaters from then on and they provided such warmth and cozy heat. Many of our friends have informed me recently that they are going to purchase these heaters for their homes this winter.

Gloria D. Smith, Boydton, VA (Retired Elementary Principal)

EdenPURE ranked #1 ®

Save $192 - biggest savings ever Richard Karn, North Canton, Ohio

I know why millions of Americans are saving on their heating bills with the EdenPURE® Portable Infrared Heaters.

And now you can save up to $192 on new EdenPURE ® models, our biggest savings ever, on heaters I personally rank #1 in North America.

I was fortunate enough to attend the grand opening of the new EdenPURE ® factory in North Canton, Ohio. The new plant brought hundreds of new jobs back to Ohio and reversed the common practice of sending Midwest manufacturing jobs to China.

American Labor, American Quality With over 3 million portable heaters sold EdenPURE ® is the best selling portable infrared heating system in North America. However, like any classic, EdenPURE ® has dozens of would-be competitors who create Asian copies at low prices using cheap, foreign labor. Don’t be fooled by these imitations. Look for the EdenPURE® logo and the Made in North Canton, Ohio stamp. Save like millions of others on your heating bills and say “NO” to cheap foreign imitators.

Save up to 49% on 2013 EdenPURE®s Now readers can save up to 49% ($192 the largest savings ever on new EdenPURE ®s). EdenPURE ® is not just the best-selling portable heating system in North America. As an EdenPURE® owner I rank EdenPURE® #1 for quality, safety and efficiency. And now is the perfect time to save like never before on our expanded 2013 EdenPURE ® line made in our brand new North Canton, Ohio facility.

Stay Comfortable 365 Days a Year “Never be cold again” is the EdenPURE ® promise. EdenPURE ® provides you insurance against the cold all year long. Stay comfortable on those unseasonably chilly evenings no matter the season. I live in California but believe me it gets cold at night.

Keep your expensive furnace turned down until it’s absolutely necessary.

And if we are fortunate enough to experience a mild winter as many of us did in the Midwest last year, you keep your furnace off all season and save even bigger.

New, More Efficient Models The engineers at EdenPURE® lis-

Never be cold again

How it works:

CUTAWAY VIEW

Heats floor to the same temperature as ceiling.

3. The soft heat “rides” the humidity in the room and provides even, moist, soft heat ceiling to floor and wall to wall without reducing oxygen and humidity.

1. Electricity ignites powerful SYLVANIA infrared lamp.

2. The quartz infrared lamp gently warms the patented copper heating chambers.

Richard Karn is a paid spokesperson for EdenPURE®.

As Al Borland on Home Improvement I was the man with all the answers. However, as Richard Karn I still look for money saving and efficient heating in my home. I have an EdenPURE® Infrared Portable Heater in my California home and like millions of others found it to be a super-safe, reliable source of portable heat all year long.

tened to their millions of customers and somehow managed to improve the #1 portable heater in North America.

Through old fashioned American ingenuity the new EdenPURE ® line is more efficient to save you even more money.

The EdenPURE® Personal Heater now heats a larger area, an increase from 350 square feet to 500 square feet.

That’s a 30% increase in efficiency!

That’s American engineering at its best!

We all know heating costs are expected to remain at record levels. The cost of heating our homes and apartments will continue to be a significant burden on the family budget. The EdenPURE® can cut your heating bills and pay for itself in a matter of weeks, and then start putting a great deal of extra money in your pocket after that.

Super Safe Infrared Heat Now remember, a major cause of residential fires in the United States is carelessness and faulty portable heaters. The choice of fire and safety professional, Captain Mike Hornby,

the EdenPURE® has no exposed heating elements that can cause a fire.

And a redundant home protection system that simply shuts the EdenPURE® down if it senses danger. That’s why grandparents and parents love the EdenPURE®.

The outside of the EdenPURE® only gets warm to the touch so that it will not burn children or pets. And your pet may be just like my dog who has reserved a favorite spot near the EdenPURE®. You see the EdenPURE® uses infrared heat. And just as pets enjoy basking in a beam of sunlight they try to stay close to EdenPURE ®’s “bone-warming” infrared heat.

The Health Secret is in the Copper EdenPURE®’s engineers have taken the original concept through revolutionary changes. EdenFLOW ™ technology uses copper heating chambers to take the energy provided by our special SYLVANIA infrared bulbs and distribute our famous soft heat evenly throughout the room.

Now our copper isn’t ordinary.

It’s 99.9% pure antimicrobial copper from an over 150 year old American owned company in Pennsylvania. Researchers have discovered copper as an antimicrobial is far more effective than stainless steel or even silver.

That’s why our special antimicrobial copper is marked Cu+ and used in hospitals on touch surfaces. So your EdenPURE ® heater is continuously pushing soft, healthy, infrared heat throughout your room.

HOUSE CALL

My 9-year-old daughter is begging for a dog, but she has asthma. Could a pet make her symptoms worse?

Possibly, though you should consult your daughter’s asthma specialist before making a decision. School-age children who have asthma typically also have allergies, and despite what you may have heard, there is no breed that’s truly hypoallergenic. Still, if her asthma is under control and allergy testing suggests she’s not allergic to dogs, then getting one could be fine. Before you bring Fido home, though, try letting your daughter spend time around him (or a dog of the same breed), and watch for signs of a reaction. (There’s still a small risk she could develop an allergy to her furry new friend later on, but it’s less likely if you take this precaution.)

And stay away from cats—they are much more likely to trigger allergies.

hospital,” says Brock.

Loading up two dental chairs in the back of a truck, he drove there with a volunteer dentist. “After that, I started getting calls from other areas, and it just grew,” says Brock, 76. In the past 27 years, RAM has served more than 500,000 patients, and over 70 percent of its clinics operate stateside. In February, at a clinic near Knoxville, Tenn., 1,022 people lined up for dental work, eye exams, and medical treatment.

In his full-time, unpaid post, Brock raises funds, testifies before Congress, and oversees volunteers at nearly every RAM clinic.

“Until we can work ourselves out of a job, we’ll keep providing care where it’s most needed,” he says.

By Marilyn vos Savant So many young people are nearsighted and need glasses.

Why didn’t evolution select against poor eyesight?

—William A., Irvine, Calif.

Myopia (nearsightedness) isn’t simply inherited. Evidence strongly suggests that only the tendency to develop myopia is inherited and that its actual development is mostly due to the ways in which a growing child uses his or her eyes.

In other words, the developing eyes respond to the needs of the child who uses them. If the eyes are used frequently for close visual activity, like reading or computer work, the child may be more likely to become myopic. So the stereotype of the bookish child who wears glasses may be rooted in truth. Today, add video gamers and other technology addicts to the list of young people affected.

Some individuals are more susceptible than others, and if one or both parents are nearsighted, their children are more likely to develop myopia. Yet

What is it about baby animals— and baby humans—that makes everyone think they’re so cute?

—Scott Welch, Wilton, Calif.

Human babies are so helpless, so needy, so demanding—and for so long!—that without the development of a wildly positive emotional response from a parent, the species wouldn’t have evolved the way it did. That love of anything that shares the look of a human baby is what we feel when we describe something as “cute.” The features include large, forward-facing eyes set low in a roundish face, accompanied by small noses and mouths and rounded ears. Add floppy arms and legs, a side-toside seesawing gait, cluelessness, and presto: It’s adorable! The young of dogs and cats and other mammals possess many of these traits to some degree, so we think they’re cute, too.

Baby birds make the cutoff— barely—but baby reptiles and insects? Forget about it!
