Grenz — who lives nearby and
has three children who attend
schools that feed into Roosevelt —
wants to build on the school’s positive momentum during this physical phase of its transformation.
“It’s going to be a shiny new
school, but won’t stay that way forever,” he says. “What are we going
to do to sustain this momentum, improve graduation rates and bring
better programs? Just because we
have a new school doesn’t mean it’s
going to change overnight.”
Grenz started using the Twitter
hashtag #WeAreRoughRiders
three years ago to try to rally the
community, as well as document
the school’s athletic and academic
achievements via social media.
He isn’t the only one trying to cement the bridge between school
and community.
“It’s a big deal trying to rebrand
Roosevelt,” says Mike Verbout, a
Roosevelt Alumni Association leader and longtime school and North
Portland activist. “We decided this
(‘Last Game’ event) could be another major piece of the rebranding.”

Dennis Richardson told you so.
Two weeks before the 2014 general election,
Richardson accused Oregon Gov. John Kitzhaber and his fiancee, Cylvia Hayes, of breaking
federal anti-corruption laws. Richardson, the
Republican nominee for governor, made his accusation in a 13-page letter to Oregon U.S. Attorney Amanda Marshall calling for a federal
investigation.
The Kitzhaber campaign accused Richardson of “an obvious political
stunt” and Kitzhaber went on
to defeat him on Nov. 4 by 49.8
to 44.2 percent. But now, a little
more than three months after
the election, Kitzhaber has resigned amid such accusations
and a federal investigation of
him and Hayes is underway.
Remarkably, a federal grand
RICHARDSON
jury subpoena issued by Marshall’s office shortly after
Kitzhaber announced he would resign on Feb.
13 closely tracks the accusations laid out in
Richardson’s letter — even though it was written nearly four months earlier. The subpoena
demands documents from state agencies related to Kitzhaber, Hayes and seven organizations associated with Hayes. Only two of those
organizations were not mentioned in Richardson’s letter.
But more than that, the letter outlined the
legal case the federal government may very
well be pursuing. Although Marshall’s office
will not say anything about the investigation,
the letter lays out reasons to believe Kitzhaber
and Hayes committed what is called “honest
services” fraud by allowing money — in this
case, payments to Hayes by the organizations
— to influence government decisions. Related
crimes outlined in the letter include bribery,
money laundering and conspiracy.
Richardson is not claiming sole credit for the
federal investigation. In fact, he says the accusations in the letter were based entirely on
news reports about Hayes’ business dealings
that had been published at the time. But the
letter pulled them all together into a coherent
narrative that lends credence to the fraud allegation.

Audit: Keep spending levy money wisely
Analysis says good job
so far but suggests
more oversight, input
By JIM REDDEN
The Tribune
The voter-approved Portland Children’s Levy is living
up to its goals of providing
millions of dollars to proven
programs that benefit young
people with little administrative overhead.
However, an analysis conducted by the City Auditor’s Office says that the council should
play a stronger role in setting
priorities for how the money is
spent. Although the council approves the grants, the recommendations are made by a volunteer citizens committee that
is not well known.
The analysis conducted by
the City Auditor’s Office did not
find fault with how the millions
of dollars of public funds have
been spent over the years, but it
did find that the spending recommendations have been made
with little council oversight,
and it questions whether the
public is aware of who made
them and how.
“A framework adopted by the
City Council for the Children’s
Levy would do two things: specify the city’s goals and desired
outcomes for the levy, and clarify roles and responsibilities,”
the audit says.

The spending recommendations are made by a five-member volunteer Allocation Committee chaired by a single council member — Commissioner
Dan Saltzman, who has sponsored all the ballot measures.
The committee staff is based in
Saltzman’s office, but staff
members are paid by the program and are not city employees. The audit says this situation could cause problems.
“Information on the Children’s Levy could be hard for a

clear whether the existing staff

Saltzman proposed the first
levy to the council in early 2001.
At the time it broke with the relationship that had been established between the city and
Multnomah County. Under an
earlier agreement called Resolution A, city government was
supposed to provide urban services such as water and sewer,

■ From page 1
currently occurring, only to the extent
that it set forth in a coherent fashion
the allegations and evidence of unethical and corrupt behavior that deserves
to be investigated,” Richardson says.
Kitzhaber denies any wrongdoing.
He claims to have been charged, tried
and convicted by the media without
due process. Even Richardson says
only a complete investigation will reveal the truth.
Kitzhaber and Hayes have retained
separate criminal defense attorneys.
And they both also are seeking to prevent the release of personal emails
stored on state computers in a different criminal investigation launched by
Oregon Attorney General Ellen Rosenbaum. A possible investigation by the
Oregon Ethics Commission is on hold
until the criminal investigations are
completed.
Law firm report
Richardson’s letter was researched
and written by Charlie Spies, a Washington, D.C., former Federal Elections
Commission counsel who has advised
numerous political action committees
and candidates, including Mitt Romney. The Richardson campaign paid
$7,000 to Spies’ law firm, Clark Hill, on
Nov. 3, 2014.
At the time the letter was written,
Oregonians were just beginning to
learn about Hayes mixing her private
consulting work with her public roles
as honorary first lady and an unpaid
energy adviser to Kitzhaber.
Willamette Week had published a
story on the dual roles on Oct. 8, but
with around one month to go before
the general election, voters probably
were paying more attention to her subsequent admission of a short-term illegal marriage to an immigrant for
$5,000.
The letter analyzed Hayes’ relationship with five organizations that appeared to conflict with her public duties. The organizations were: Demos, a
New York-based public policy organization; Energy Foundation, a San Francisco-based nonprofit fighting climate
change; Resource Media, a Seattle public relations firm working against coal
exports; the Waste to Energy Group, a
for-profit California company trying to
secure a contact to covert methane at a
Bend landfill; and the Oregon Business
Council, a business group that provided a spokesperson for Hayes.
“Mr. Kitzhaber and Ms. Hayes’ ostensible criminal activity stems from the
First Lady’s dual role as a ‘public official’ and ‘policy adviser’ to Mr. Kitzhaber, and as a private energy and economic consultant who received compensation from numerous profit and
non-profit companies to represent interests before Mr. Kitzhaber’s administration,” reads the letter.
One of the additional organizations
in the subpoena is Rural Development
Initiatives, a nonprofit promoting rural
jobs.
The other is the Clean Energy Development Center, a Washington, D.C.,
nonprofit fighting climate change.
News of her involvement with the two
organizations did not surface until after the election.
The EO Media Group/Pamplin Media
Group was the first to report that
Hayes received $118,000 from the Clean
Energy Development Center that had
not been previously disclosed in January.
The subpoena seeks records related
to Kitzhaber, Hayes and the seven organizations from numerous state agencies where news reports say Hayes’
private and public work overlapped.
They are: the Department of Adminstrative Services, which serves the executive branch; the Business Development Department/Business Oregon,
which is the state’s economic development arm; the Department of Community Colleges and Workforce Development, which is involved in both green
and rural job creation; the Department
of Energy, which is involved in state
climate change policies; the Department of Environmental Quality, which
also is involved in climate change policies; and the Division of State Lands,
which has energy interests.
Documents related to numerous people associated with the organization
and agencies also are demanded. They
are to be delivered to the grand jury
room in the U.S. Courthouse in Portland on March 10.

U.S. Attorney can be read online at:

about political scandal
Former legislator,
candidate says public
deserves details
By JIM REDDEN
The Tribune
Dennis Richardson has not said
much publicly since Oregon Gov.
John Kitzhaber defeated him to win
re-election last year.
But the former Republican state legislator recently appeared on “Terry
Boyd’s World,” a radio show on KPAM
860 AM, where he discussed the scandal that resulted in Kitzhaber’s resignation.
Among other things, Richardson
talked about the Oct. 23 letter he sent
to Oregon U.S. Attorney Amanda Marshall calling for the kind of federal investigation into Kitzhaber and his fiancee, Cylvia Hayes, that is now happening. The Portland Tribune followed up
with Richardson last week, asking him
how he feels about the resignation, the
investigation, and whether he would
consider running for governor again.

Levy: More council leadership recommended

and the county was supposed to
provide social services. But
Saltzman did not think enough
was being done to help children, especially low-income
children, and he persuaded the
council to place a levy on the
Nov. 5, 2002, ballot to raise millions of property tax dollars for
existing nonprofit children’s
programs.
The voters agreed with
Saltzman and approved the
levy — formally known as the
Children’s Investment Fund —
by a margin of 106,604 to
83,380. The margin of victory
increased with the two renewal measures, culminating in
the passage of the November
2013 measure by a margin of
119,026 to 40,115. According to
the audit, the program has
distributed $57 million to organizations that provide services to children over the past
five years. Administrative
costs have averaged 5 percent
a year, as required by the levy
language.
At first, the city had an
agreement with the county to
cooperate on the allocation of
the funds.
According to that audit, the
agreement “provided the initial
framework in 2003, with goals,
criteria for selecting grants,
and defined responsibilities for
Children’s Levy staff, the Allocation Committee, City Council
and County Board of Commis-
sioners.” That agreement expired in 2008, however, and was
not replaced with a similar
framework.
In its absence, the Allocation
Committee has developed its
own goals and strategies to
guide funding decisions, the audit says. Although the audit
does not find fault with any of
the decisions, it says the council should show more leadership.
“(W)ithout long-term goals
adopted by Council, it may be
difficult to ensure funds address the highest priority community needs, or to document
the levy outcomes over time,”
says the audit, which also calls
for more transparency of the
funding decisions.
Saltzman says he supports
the recommendations and
notes the Allocation Committee
spent much of its most recent
meeting discussing how to increase public involvement. It
will soon seek public comment
on recommendations to ensure
that the programs it funds
serve all children effectively,
Saltzman said in a Feb. 12 letter
to City Auditor Mary Hull Caballero co-signed by Portland
Children’s Levy Director Lisa
Pellegrino.
Portland is not the only local
government with such a program. They also exist in Seattle, Oakland, San Francisco and
two Florida communities, Jacksonville and Broward County.
Some were inspired by
Saltzman’s example.

Ships waiting to be unloaded have backup in the Columbia River because of the long running labormanagement dispute at the Port of Portland.
Despite labor deal, port
slowdown continues
Terminal operator’s
dispute with union
threatens economy
By JIM REDDEN
The Tribune
Oregon Gov. Kate Brown is
facing the first crisis of her
new administration — the
ongoing labor dispute at the
Port of Portland.
Friction continues to slow
shipping at Terminal 1, despite
the fact that West Coast port
operators and the International Longshore and Warehouse
Union agreed on a tentative
five-year contract last Friday.
“The Governor’s Office is engaged with both parties and
monitoring the situation closely. The efficient operation of
Oregon’s ports plays a critical
role in the economic vitality of
our urban and rural communities,” says Brown’s press secretary Chris Pair.
The governor appoints the
commission that oversees port
operations. So far, it has not
been able to resolve the conflict
between terminal operator
ICTSI Oregon and the local ILWU union that is continuing
after the tentative contract
agreement was reached.
The local union has been at
odds with ICTSI for several
years, accusing the Philippines-based company of being
anti-union.The conflict already
has prompted Hanjin Shipping,
the largest shipping line at Terminal 1, to announce it will pull
out on March 9 — potentially
threatening the state’s fragile
economic recovery because it
handles so many imports and
exports.
On Monday, ICTSI Oregon
and the local ILWU union accused each other of continuing
to hamper shipments at the
terminal, the only deep-water
port in Oregon. In an afternoon
statement, ICTSI Oregon accused the union of engaging in
an illegal work stoppage.
“Additionally, the ILWU is
failing to provide sufficient labor for needed container vessel
and barge operations at the
terminal. For example, the
PMA (Pacific Maritime Association) today found that the
ILWU engaged in an illegal
work stoppage by failing to provide labor on Sunday, Feb. 22,
2015, for the Hanjin Copenhagen. ICTSI Oregon is disappointed that the ILWU is continuing to purposely disrupt
Terminal 6 operations and impact business in the Portland
region,” the statement said.
But Jennifer Sargent, a
spokeswoman for the local IWLU union, said, “The statements that ICTSI made to the
media about work stoppages
were, as usual, self-serving and
inaccurate. ICTSI arbitrarily
fired entire crews of workers
this week and then complained
that no one was working.
The fact is, ICTSI is failing to
thrive in the United States because of its own managerial
shortcomings and desperately
trying to blame others for its
own mistakes.
ICTSI’s poor decisions and
rogue attitude have chased away
two major customers in Portland
and alienated their peers in the
industry. If ICTSI spent as much
time improving operations as
they spend complaining to the
media, our region would have a
more productive container terminal by now.”
The tentative contact was
announced last week by the
ILWU and the Pacific Maritime
Association, which represents
operators at the ports, including ICTSI Oregon. The agreement was reached with help
from U.S. Secretary of Labor
Tom Perez and Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service
Deputy Director Scot Beckenbaugh. Details of the agreement have not been released.
The union and the maritime
association still must ratify the
tentative deal.
“After more than nine
months of negotiations, we are
pleased to have reached an
agreement that is good for
workers and for the industry,”
said Pacific Maritime Association President James McKenna
and ILWU President Bob
McEllrath in a joint statement.
“We are also pleased that our
ports can now resume full operations.”
The agreement came too late
to prevent Hanjin from leaving,
however, and the continuing
strife will complicate efforts to
find a replacement.
“Hanjin has been a vitally
important and longtime carrier
in our market, and this will be
a tough loss for our region,”
said Bill Wyatt, executive director for the Port of Portland.
“We have made every attempt
to prevent this outcome.”
The departure leaves HapagLloyd and Westwood Shipping
as the remaining direct-calling
carriers. Port officials said the
withdrawal would not impact
the port’s other marine business lines such as autos, grain,
minerals, steel, project cargo
or liquid bulks.

Who has been hurt the
most by Kitzhaber’s resignation, other than Kitzhaber and Hayes, who have
lost his salary just as
their legal bills are
starting to multiply?
You could
argue those
who contributed big bucks
to Kitzhaber’s reelection campaign
are suffering because
their contributions were
wasted. But that’s not necessarily the case. For example, Nike chairman Phil
Knight contributed $250,000
to Kitzhaber’s re-election
campaign. But Kitzhaber
had previously called a special session of the Oregon
Legislature to pass a law to
make sure Nike’s state tax
structure can’t change. So
maybe Knight was just settling a debt.
And the Democratic Party of Oregon isn’t necessarily hurting, even though it
gave Kitzhaber $67,000 last
year. Although Kitzhaber is
gone, he was replaced by
another Democrat, former
Secretary of State Kate
Brown. That’s a lot different than Republican candidate Dennis Richardson
winning the 2014 election.

Oregon colleges
say ‘no’ to pot
Come July 1, pot will still
be illegal on college campuses, but try telling college students that. According to TIME magazine,
some Oregon college officials are doing just that.
“The bottom line is for
the federal government
marijuana is still illegal, so
that trumps state law because we get federal funding,” the Feb. 19 article
quotes Dr. Erin Foley, dean
of students at Oregon Institute of Technology, as saying. “It’s straightforward.
The bigger piece for us is to
make sure students are
aware of that.”
Portland State University
and other publicly funded
universities are participating in a campaign to make
it clear to students that
marijuana is not allowed on
campus. In other words,
“No Smoking” signs don’t
just apply to cigarettes.
It remains unclear, however, how the rules will apply to off-campus, nonschool housing.

state officials, we have farleft foundations funneling
significant funds to an environmental group to orchestrate this type of activism without any public disclosure,” said Senate Environment and Public Works
Chairman Jim Inhofe (ROkla.).

Teacher of teachers will run
for volunteer PPS board seat
PSU’s Brown laments
lack of a Latino voice
on current board
By SHASTA KEARNS MOORE
The Tribune
Much of Julie Esparza
Brown’s career grew from her
father’s experience in a 1940s
Americanization school in
California. There, children
were beaten if they spoke
Spanish, but without a solid
foundation in either language,
they grew up to be semi-literate, Brown says.
“That’s why I’ve been in education ... to have a bigger impact
in training teachers,” says
Brown, who is an assistant professor in the Graduate School of
Education at Portland State University.
Brown is running for Portland
Public Schools board in the
southwestern Zone 1, currently
Ruth Adkins’ seat. As of press
time, her only opponent was for-
mer PPS student representative
and current Portland State University student Andrew Davidson.
Director Adkins, who supports Brown’s
candidacy, has
decided against
running for a
third term due
to the heavy
workload.
ESPARZA
“I was super
BROWN
excited when I
found out about
Julie being willing to run,” said
Adkins, who noted Brown’s nationally recognized research on
dual language programs and
special education reforms, “just
when we (the district) are finally
making some progress in those
areas.”
Brown says she feels that
since Director Steve Buel won
against Martin Gonzales in 2013,
the board has been missing a Latino voice.
“I’m running because I think
that my background and experi-
ence and expertise could help an
urban school system like Portland Public,” she says, adding: “I
would love the school board to
look representative of the district.”
Brown’s academic focus has
been on special education and
literacy issues, as well as the
needs of English-language
learners.
“We obviously have disparities in outcomes across different
groups of kids,” she says. “We
can’t continue to let some kids
slip through the cracks in terms
of not meeting their potential.”
Brown says she supports the
work of the Portland Association
of Teachers union and Superintendent Carole Smith and that
she is ready for the long hours
required by the volunteer position.
“I am blessed to be in this position where I have raised my
children — and they are amazing — and I have time in my
schedule that would allow me to
take on this huge commitment,”
Brown says.

Roosevelt: School works
on major rebranding
■ From page 1
basketball games is a feat unto
itself, considering the games
typically draw sparse attendance.
In recent years, Roosevelt’s
partnership with SouthLake
Church has done a lot to remedy
that. Since 2008, thousands of
volunteers from the West Linn
church have helped clothe, feed,
mentor, coach and support the
students, having grown from a
simple day of service to beautify
the school.
A documentary that debuted
last month, “Undivided,” (undividedthemovie.com) shines a
light on the unique partnership.
Verbout, the alumni association leader, also has an effort underway to ask various neighborhood groups and organizations
to sign up to attend Roosevelt’s
athletic games on certain days,
to show their support.
And Verbout says the alumni
association is planning to hand
out passes to Roosevelt theater
and other arts events to seniors
at Assumption Village assistedliving facility, two blocks away.
“I want the kids to know that
people love and care about them
and support them,” Verbout
says. “I want other folks — older
folks and new 30-somethings —
to realize this is their school.”
Separate but related to Roosevelt, Verbout is helping to organize the annual Celebrate North
Portland event, coming up on
March 14.
This year’s theme is “North
Portland’s Got Talent,” inviting
people who live or work in North
Portland to showcase their
skills. A few of the contenders
performed snippets of their talents in between buzzer time at
Friday’s games.
“This needs to be a 24/7
school,” Verbout says. “We need
to target the 80-something percent of people who don’t have
kids in school; let those people
feel like: ‘This is my school, too.’”
‘Be happy with what
we are giving you’
One part of the Roosevelt
modernization effort, however,
has a dark cloud hanging over
it.

Roosevelt Design Advisory
Group have been disgruntled
with PPS’ planning of the new
building’s space for STEM (science, technology, engineering
and math) learning.
Last March, the Tribune detailed those concerns about the
design process, the critics alleging that the 3,500 square feet of
dedicated STEM space and 2,500
square feet of “makerspace lab”
in the new Roosevelt building
are “grossly undersized.”
Joe Purkey, a St. Johns architect and member of the Design
Advisory Group, says: “There
were only repeated promises
broken and delays effected to allow the board and the district to
make the heartfelt cry, ‘I’m sorry, but we cannot change and re-
main on time and on budget.
Thank you for all your efforts,
now be happy with what we are
giving you.’”
Even while disenchanted, Purkey, whose children attend
James John School — a feeder
school to Roosevelt — says he’s
excited that the remodel will finally bring Roosevelt up to current seismic and accessiblity
standards, and in a shape to allow transformative teaching and
learning.
“Roosevelt will continue to
rise and will greatly benefit
from this new design,” Purkey
says, “but I still say my neighborhood deserves better than
good enough. We deserve the
excellence that the district
promised through their Educational Visioning process, of a
cutting-edge facility that supports and welcomes both the
students and community and
prepares our kids to pursue
their own success after high
school.”

Vaccination issue begs for open debate
L
ast Friday, Gov. Kate Brown
said that Oregon needs to
have “a broader discussion”
about the death penalty and
criminal justice system.
We also feel the same approach
needs to be taken with the issue of
vaccinations in Oregon.
Currently, 7 percent of Oregon’s
kindergarten students go without
vaccinations due to nonmedical exemptions — aka those for religious or
philosophical reasons — which gives
us the inauspicious rank of first in
the nation.
That, however, may change this year.
As our Jennifer Anderson reported last
week, under new rules adopted by the
Oregon Legislature, those seeking a
nonmedical exemption now have to
earn a “vaccination certificate” by either watching an hourlong vaccine education video, or by talking to a health
care practitioner.
It remains to be seen if Oregon’s

new, stricter rules will result in fewer
vaccination exemptions.
With the recent outbreak of measles across the country — and this
week’s death of an unvaccinated toddler in Germany — the topic of vaccinations commands our attention.
A measles outbreak at Disneyland
in December has now grown to 150
reported cases in several states, including Oregon.
The more children are unvaccinated in schools, the more it weakens
the “herd immunity,” making such
vulnerable populations as pregnant
women, infants or the medically fragile more susceptible to highly infectious diseases.
Large numbers of Oregonians consider vaccinations a choice, rather
than something that should be mandated, which is the exact opposite of
the intent of Sen. Elizabeth Steiner
Hayward (D-Portland) and her bill
that would eliminate the nonmedical
exemption, an effort similar to others
being pursued in 11 other states.
We applaud Hayward’s action, at
least for the public dialogue it’s generating. But the fear of disease outbreak is hardly the whole story.
The controversy was evident in Salem Feb. 19 when testimony on Hayward’s bill lasted for more than three
hours.
There was impassioned testimony
from public health officials, as well as
experts of all types and families with
children who suffered from severe reactions to vaccines, which they say
led to autism and other conditions.
In Oregon, medical exemptions can
be granted for a variety of reasons,
including having a compromised immune system. But the most common
qualification for receiving a medical
exemption is a previous severe allergic reaction to a vaccine, which could
be after the harm has occurred.
The medical establishment insists
vaccines are safe. If that’s the case,
then why has Congress exempted
vaccine manufacturers from civil lawsuits?
Why has Congress created the National Vaccine Injury Compensation
Program to compensate people — including children — who have been injured by vaccines?
In fiscal 2014, the special “vaccine
court” in Washington, D.C., ordered
$202 million be paid to 365 victims to
compensate for vaccine-related injuries. Those are grounds for real concern that public health officials need
to address, rather than sweep under
the rug.
This is not a black and white debate, but one that touches on personal freedom, public health, individual
rights and the greater good.
The discussion will continue at an
information hearing set for March 9
in Salem to address the constitutionality of Sen. Hayward’s bill.
As educated constituents, we deserve a broader public discussion on
the full truth about vaccines, not just
the “safe, cheap and highly effective”
claims the public health officials continuously make.

portant to Oregonians for a variety of reasons beyond providing a
great setting for outdoor activities. People link it to better
health, providing a legacy for future generations and pride in our
state. Importantly, Oregonians also connect the environment to
one of the top issues they’re concerned about and want their government officials to do something
about: jobs and the economy.
We see how Oregonians prioritize the environment in DHM’s
research surveys. When asked
recently what the better way is
for Oregon to promote economic
growth, 70 percent chose maintaining a quality environment to
attract people and companies to
Oregon versus relaxing environmental protection to make it easier for companies to do business
(23 percent). Oregonians have felt
this way consistently over the
years. They answered the same
question similarly in both the
1992 and 2002 Oregon Values and
Beliefs studies. Again, the value
of a quality environment is recognized by a broad cross-section of
Oregonians. Well, almost. Note
for Republicans: You’re on the
side of relaxing protections while
a strong majority of Democrats
and (listen up) Independents are
in the maintaining quality camp.
It is one thing to say you value
a quality environment for the different reasons mentioned above,
but it is another to say you’re
willing to pay more or change
your behavior to protect it. Are
Oregonians willing to put their
money where their mouth is?
The answer is yes and no. On the
one hand, they have become recyclers, say they’re willing to
change their behavior to help
combat climate change, and support greater regulation of the
coal industry and a cap on the
amount of carbon dioxide a big
company can emit. Such policies
could lead to increased prices for
products and services, showing
there are times they are willing
to step up and take on some burdens to protect the environment.
But, on the other hand, they’re
opposed to paying a carbon tax of
25 cents a gallon on gasoline and
are divided on having higher
density in their neighborhoods to
prevent urban sprawl.
These research findings
should not be a surprise. While
Oregonians greatly value environmental quality, a majority also feel that government wastes
money and can’t effectively administer programs, they don’t
like big business, and they are
struggling financially. So, people
prefer to keep government out of
it, minimize regulations or make
the other guy pay, and make it
more about monetary incentives
and volunteering than about taxes and punishing regulations.
Oregonians also want to understand fully any proposal and
hear information from a credible source (a very short list of
individuals and organizations
these days). Otherwise, in this
era of cynicism, skepticism and
negativity, any doubt at all is a
death sentence for most tax or
regulation proposals, even ones
related to the environment.
Lack of information irks Oregonians.
For example, we found that
quantifying (how many more
units) and qualifying (what kind
of units will they be and what
will they look like) greatly affects support levels for a proposal to have higher density in a
neighborhood. How ideas are
framed matters also. Instead of
“preventing urban sprawl,” how
about calling it “protection of
farm and forestland?”
We love environmental quality
in Oregon, but considering the
bigger public opinion climate
these days, it is a tough love. But
then again, Oregonians are
tough. Don’t bet against us when
it comes to our state’s environmental quality.

Give rape victims more time to fight back
MYVIEW
Danielle Tudor
R
ight now, Oregon’s
state Legislature is
about to consider bills
to change our six-year
statute of limitations on prosecution of rape crimes without
DNA evidence.
(I’m proud to
say we have no
statute of limitation at all on
rape cases with
DNA.)
Why does
this particular
time limit need
TUDOR
to change? My
answer is simple: If you’ve been raped, you
should have justice — even decades later. I would like to see
Oregon stand out by instituting
a new limit of 20 years.
After I was raped in my own
home in 1979, I reported the
crime promptly to the police
and underwent a medical exam
with a rape kit — and so did
eight of this serial rapist’s other
victims. But once Richard Troy
Gillmore was caught in 1986, the
statute of limitations meant that
he could be prosecuted for only
one rape.
Even today, Gillmore still
would escape prosecution for
most of his crimes. If a rapist is
canny enough to evade arrest
and to avoid leaving DNA evidence behind, then after six
years he’s untouchable.
Meanwhile, the number of
rape victims in the U.S. is staggering — and it keeps growing.
According to the U.S. Department of Justice, every two minutes another woman or girl age
12 or older is raped or assaulted
sexually. Bear in mind that
those statistics don’t include the
women who approach me every
time I speak publicly and share
my story. These women always
tell me they were raped, just as I
was, but they have never told
anyone before.
Then consider this statistic:
98 percent of rapists never
spend a day in jail.
I believe we can change those
numbers by allowing victims a
longer period to move forward
with prosecution.
Defense lawyers and others
who oppose a longer statute of
limitations for rape have told me
that the onus is on any victim of
sexual assault to report the assault promptly, to go to court
and receive justice swiftly, and
then to move on with life. This is
exactly how rape is regularly
portrayed in one-hour episodes
of “Law and Order: SVU.” But
that is simply not real life for
victims.
To anyone who feels strongly
that every rape victim should
follow this protocol, I suggest
that you undergo an exam for a
rape kit. A friend asked me, “Is
a rape kit more invasive than a
Pap smear?” Indeed it is — it’s
one of the most invasive examinations you might ever have to
endure. As a victim, you’ve just
experienced a traumatizing,
painful and shaming assault,
and now you must endure an
enormously humiliating medical exam.
Basically, having a rape kit
done requires you to undergo a
second ordeal. After that, you
deserve some breathing space
to decide when you want to go
to court, which is bound to be a
third ordeal.
Some people worry that by
extending the statute of limitations for rape cases, innocents
will be falsely accused and imprisoned. But according to the
National Sexual Violence Resource Center, the incidence of
false reporting of sexual violence is low (2-10 percent). What
about the many rapists out
there who have never been convicted? Are we willing to overlook the huge number of cases
that are legitimate but never
prosecuted?
Rape is one of the most underreported crimes against
women. At the same time, according to the Centers for Disease Control, men are more likely to experience sexual assault
than they are to be falsely accused of committing it.
Some lawyers say that fresh
cases bring justice best. But demanding that vulnerable, traumatized rape victims forge
ahead as quickly as possible
with prosecution hardly seems
humane. Still, perhaps with
more time, they can do that.
Rape is a unique crime. It affects a victim’s body, mind and
spirit. Rape is not like a broken
bone that can be set, or a cut
that can be stitched up. Once
that bone or cut heals, you no
longer feel pain.
By contrast, a sexual assault
survivor always carries pain,
guilt, shame and fear — feelings
with no statute of limitations.
Life becomes devoted to managing these emotions. Unwanted
memories and flashbacks spring
to mind, unbidden. Some days
you win out over them; some
days you lose, and must remind
yourself you can survive to fight
another day.
But one day, you could have
the strength to move forward,
call the district attorney’s office,
and go to court.
A victim of sexual assault has
never asked for the huge responsibility of bringing a rapist
to justice as soon as possible. A
longer statute of limitations
would give victims a chance to
fight back when they’re ready.
And it might make potential
rapists think twice if they knew
that the threat of prosecution
would hang over them for 20
years of their lives.

victim turned activist and advocate.

Call for assault

A handful of Oregon Episcopal School students asked
Portland’s City Council earlier this month to adopt a
strict gun control measure.

Motorcycle lesson results in fatality
A Tigard woman died Sunday while trying to ride a
friend’s motorcycle in the
parking lot of the Multnomah Arts Center.
Tara Lu Freemole, 60, was
wearing a helmet but died while
riding her friend’s 2011 HarleyDavidson 1200 Sportster around
1:30 p.m. Feb. 22. Police say she
appears to have died instantly
from head trauma when she
lost control, struck a curb, and
hit the side of a parked car.
The practice ride was not
part of an organized motorcycle
driver-education course. She
did not have a motorcycle endorsement and her friend was
informally teaching her to ride
in the lot at 7688 S.W. Capitol

Organized motorcycle riding
classes are held in numerous
locations around town, including the parking lot at the Portland Community College Sylvania Campus, located not far

Margaret Mary (McNamee) Bell
October 10, 1924 to February 16, 2015
Margaret Bell was the last
living child of Robert Steven
and Mary Francis McNamee
who raised 12 children in St.
Paul, Ore. A first generation
American she grew up with
a marvelous work ethic,
Margaret attended St. Mary’s
High School in Medford, Ore.
and then studied at Willamette
University in Salem, Ore. on a
music scholarship.
Margaret married Harry Conlee Bell, Jr. in 1951 and
moved to Portland, Ore. Shortly after their marriage
they moved to the home they built in West Linn and
raised seven children. Margaret was involved in
religious education and Altar Society at Our Lady of
the Lake for many years while raising her children.
She worked at several Catholic organizations including
Jesuit High School Board, St. Anne’s of West Linn and
St. Francis of Sherwood. She was also an employee
of one of her most cherished organizations, Earl and
Brown Incorporated, where she was a financial analyst.
She was very involved in her children’s schooling and
sports endeavors, often being their biggest fan in the
bleachers. One ability that Margaret and her entire
McNamee family had was to connect to people in a
deep and meaningful way; that was a gift she passed
onto her family.
Margaret passed away at 10:55 a.m. on the 16th of
February with all of her children, grandchildren and
some of her great-grandchildren with her to the very
end. Always the teacher and a child of God herself,
she encouraged her entourage to attend church and led
them in prayers up until 30 minutes of her death.

Harry Conlee Bell, Jr. (1981). She is survived by her
children, Brian Nugent Bell (Eileen), Michael Stephan
Bell, Colleen Ann Yates (Darrell) Sheila Eileen

Sam Watterson, Taylor Kent, Charlie Kent, Colton
Fortney and Addie Fortney.
Margaret’s service was held at Our Lady of the Lake

Planners peek at rental rules
Issue of short-term
stays may be put on
long-range agenda
By KEVIN L. HARDEN
Pamplin Media Group
Washington County planners may be about to dip
their toes into the often-turbulent short-term rental/vacation rental debate.
Just a toe, mind you. Planners are not recommending
that county officials leap into
the Airbnb/VRBO (Vacation
Rental By Owner) issue just yet.
Instead, planners could look at

Washington County doesn’t not a use specifically identified
That future discussion can’t have specific rules governing in our current codes,” Roberts
said.
If, and when, county officials
start talking about the shortterm rental regulations, representatives of HomeAway Inc.,
the Austin, Texas, company that
owns VRBO.com and other vacation rental/short-term rental
marketplace websites, say they
are ready to help with that process.
“Vacation rentals serve a
strong benefit to a community
such as Washington County,”
said Carl Shepherd, HomeAway
co-founder. “Vacation rentals
are a great option for business
travel accommodations, especially for longer stays, due to
their affordability over hotels
and their ability to allow the
traveler to feel at home.
“When Washington County
begins to discuss the issue of
regulations, HomeAway stands
at the ready to become involved
and encourage our owners,
managers and travelers to advocate for proper regulation, as
well.”
HomeAway has more than 1
million paid vacation home listings in 190 countries. The company has more than 1,400 employees in 18 offices around the
world. In 2013, the publicly traded company’s revenue increased by 23 percent to $346.5
million.
A 2013 HomeAway customer
satisfaction survey found that
owners of second homes often
rent their properties 18 weeks a
year, for an average of $1,500 a
week.
‘If they lived next door’
Each year, the county’s Long
Range Planning staff submits a
proposal to commissioners for
projects and issues to tackle in
the next 12 months. This year’s
plan, which includes more than
three dozen recommended priorities, goes to the board of
commissioners March 24 for
public comments. If adopted,
the plan will map staff’s work
until April 2016.
Planners already are working
on projects that take several
years to complete, like development of the Bonny Slope West
area, the 2018 regional transportation plan, and the Southwest Corridor high-capacity
transit plan.
Top-tier requests included in
this year’s draft long-range plan
are updating the county trans-
portation system and finding
ways to fund transportation
projects, guiding remaining elements of the North Bethany development, and monitoring land
needs for possible future urban
growth boundary expansion.
Way down on the list are a
handful of requests by citizens
or groups asking the county to,
among other things, adopt a
tree ordinance, provide ongoing
support for the Aloha and Reedville Community Council, and
regulate short-term vacation
rentals, like those through Airbnb, VRBO or other services.
That’s where Denise Brem
and Bill Yaeger come in. The
Garden Home residents complained to county commissioners in early December that a
house rented for short stays had
disrupted their Southwest 67th
Avenue neighborhood for more
than three years. The house

more laws restricting gun use
because the state prohibits cities from taking that action.
“We’re chafing a little bit under the restrictions in state
law, but we think we have a
little more room to do what we
need to do,” Hales told the students.
“I think you’re right. There
is a very large majority in our
city that wants to see better
laws on gun safety.”
Hales and other city commissioners encouraged the
students to testify when the
Legislature takes up several
bills on gun safety this session.
The OES students’ measure
is modeled on similar ordinances adopted by Sunnyvale,
Calif., Highland Park, Ill., and
Washington, D.C. It’s also an
extension of ordinances adopted by Portland’s city commissioners in December 2010.
Those proposals tightened
firearms laws on endangering
children, reporting the theft of
guns, and establishing “hot
spots” where police had extra
legal tools to combat illegal
gun use in parts of the city.
The students spent several
weeks researching other cities’ gun safety ordinances and
legal challenges, backing up
their argument with reports of
recent Portland-area gang-related shootings, the June 2014
Reynolds High School shooting in Troutdale, and a recent
incident in which a 4-year-old
Gresham boy accidentally shot
his finger with a handgun.
“Gun violence is happening
everywhere in the United
States,” according to the students’ presentation to the
council. “The victims can
seemingly be anyone — your
neighbor next door, or your
friend living on a street close
to you.”
Blumenauer’s proposal
The students’ proposal
comes on the heels of a plan by
U.S. Rep. Earl Blumenauer to
treat gun safety like automobile and tobacco use.
Blumenauer, a Democrat
representing Oregon’s 3rd
Congressional District, outlined his proposal during a
Feb. 9 news conference with
the introduction of a new report, “Enough Is Enough: A
Comprehensive Plan to Improve Gun Safety.”
Blumenauer plans to turn the
report’s nine proposals into federal legislation later this year.
The proposals are based on the
federal government’s response
to automobile safety and reduction of tobacco use “two significant public safety challenges
where the government responded in ways that dramatically reduced injury and death, success
came from defining the problem,
identifying risk factors, testing
prevention strategies, and ensuring widespread adoption of
effective solutions,” Blumenauer
said Monday in Portland.
“While there is no single solution to the challenges associated
with gun violence, insight can be
gained from other challenges
that the United States has faced
and overcome,” he said.
Among Blumenauer’s proposals:
■ Close the private sale
loophole so no guns could be
sold without a background
check.
■ Improve the mental health
system so some people with
mental illnesses cannot get
guns.
■ Authorize and increase
research on ways to prevent
gun violence.
■ Limit access to “the most
dangerous weapons.”
■ Include firearms in the
U.S. Consumer Product Safety
Act.
■ Regulate gun sellers so all
are complying with federal
law.
■ Enforce existing gun safety laws.
■ Train first responders to
deal with active-shooter situations.

Italian style is in fine form at the Portland Art Museum. Unique items similar to those found in this Dolce Gabana advertisement can be seen
through May 3.
PAM exhibit traces
Roman fashion from
palazzo to outlet mall
By JOSEPH GALLIVAN
The Tribune
ITALIAN STYLE
Italian Style is that rare
show in Portland, like China
Design Now in 2009, that immerses you in a place you
might never visit. The subject
is high fashion, but the subtext is how Italy reinvented itself after World War II.
Don’t know your Puccis from
your Pradas? Are Dolce & Gabbana a couple? Why are the discount stores stuffed with Tommy Hilfiger but not Armani?
The exhibit, Italian Style,
comes from the renowned costume department of the Victoria
& Albert Museum in London.
Three decades ago, shows about
fashion and design made that
fusty museum interesting again.
The V&A’s pop culture shows,
such as one on David Bowie, are
frequently blockbusters.
Fashion is a major export for
Italy. The exhibit begins, as a lot
of postwar Italian narrative
does, by dropping Fascism like a
hot potato and getting into the
glamour of the upper classes.
Downstairs at the entrance to
the Portland Art Museum there
is a long T-shaped runway filled
with fantastic modern dresses
and suits made by the best Italian fashion houses, including
Pucci, Valentino, Gucci, Missoni,
Giorgio Armani, Dolce & Gabbana, Fendi, Prada and Versace.
In other museums, these pieces are placed at the end of the
show: it’s the “state of the art”
section. Here you marvel at the
sculptural forms, the fabrics, the
craftsmanship and the unending inventiveness of things to
cover the human body, before
heading upstairs for the main
narrative.
There we first see a series of
evening gowns in glass cases —
bold sculptures made for sizetwo aristocrats. There is a gold
gown with a typical 1950s bell
skirt. The dress has hundreds of
silk flaps cut on the round, so
they look like feathers. It’s made
by a noblewoman called Simonetta who, falling on hard
times, went into dress designing
and tapped her social network
for customers.
Many of the dresses in the
first section wouldn’t be out of
place on a 2015 red carpet. They
were shown at the Sala Bianca
What: “Italian Style: Fashion
since 1945”
Where: Portland Art Museum,
1219 S.W. Park Ave., Portland
When: Through May 3
Cost: $20 adults, children free
More: If you want to take a
more in-depth look at the
Italian fashion industry, check
out the hefty book “Italian
Style: Fashion Since 1945,”
available in the museum’s gift
shop; $39.95, which would
otherwise get you a pair of
socks at Mario’s, or maybe a
sweatshirt at Ross.

This Germana Marucelli dress is just one of the many dresses
featured at the Portland Art Museum exhibit.
(white room) in Florence in the
1950s. Fashion journalists were
invited to stop off after the Paris
shows, before returning to
America.
The looks and the quality tailoring appealed to the American
market, where the postwar economic boom left plenty of women hungry for glamour and with
the money to pay for it.
In another glass case is a blue
silk evening bag and a dark wool
jacket both by Maria Grimaldi.
The jacket is laid out not to show
a label — there is none — but
the careful tailoring of its red,
silk lining. Again the message is
Italian craftsmanship was exceptional.
The narrative lurches forward in the next room with the
Hollywood on the Tiber section,
which shows how Hollywood
was seduced by Roman style.
When Audrey Hepburn was
shooting films such as “Roman
Holiday” she was a clothes
horse for Italian designers. Her
personal life, like that of Elizabeth Taylor, was fodder for the
tabloids.
You can look at the diamond
brooch that Eddie Fisher bought
for Taylor at Bulgari just before
she dumped him for Richard
Burton. (Fisher sent her the bill,
and she paid.)
Movies such as “La Dolce Vita” (The Sweet Life, 1960) by
Federico Fellini may have satirized the excesses of the rich
and the paparazzi who followed
them, but the takeaway was a
superficial interest in Italian
style and glamor.

For several years, cities like
San Francisco, Boulder, Colo.,
and New York City, have tried to
wrangle local short-term rental
regulations. HomeAway officials
sued San Francisco to block some
of that city’s rules. Legal sabers
also have been rattled in New
York City.
In July 2014, Portland city officials adopted a new set of rules to
govern Airbnb rentals after
months of talks with the company. The rules regulate the types of
places that can be used for shortterm rentals (limiting some multifamily dwelling unit rentals),
require owners to be on site for
most rentals, set up a permit and
fee system for the short-term
rentals, and require Airbnb to
collect taxes from property owners who use their online service.

Seeing the paisley coat made
for opera singer Maria Callas, or
the multicolored bikinis and
loungewear of Emilio Pucci, we
can see how the 1960s hit with
the impact of Technicolor, an impact that is still being felt. The
fabrics may be fading, but the
designs could be right out of an
iPad ad.
Pucci was a Fascist sympathizer and helped pay for his tuition at Reed College in the late
1930s by designing outfits for
the Reed ski team. His bold colors and shapes got him noticed
on the slopes back in Italy. Marilyn Monroe was buried in a Pucci dress.
The rise of Italian ready-towear fashion (made in factories
by machines rather than pure
craftspeople) is the main success story here. But there is a
side room with some men’s suits
— thick, wool suits that are
surely due for a comeback. Or if
a 1980s revival is due, perhaps
the soft, unstructured look of
Armani that landed him on the
cover of Time magazine will do
it.
The show comes alive downstairs with the modest eccentricity of Italian fashion; see the
multicolored, shaved mink ensemble (it looks like suede), or a
Versace leather jacket and trousers covered in fringe. A fuzzy
video shot in a Fiorucci store at
an after-hours party in 1977
shows a rocker with a beer, a
shirtless dude dancing, and lots
of New York women with a
slight Cindy Lauper look to
them. It shows how cool a cloth-
ing brand could be. Brands were
soon to transcend their designers and owners on the way to
becoming the protected species
they are today.
A new, high-definition video
shows some key figures in Italian fashion — including the
scary Italian Vogue editor,
Franca Sozzani, who looks like
she’s from a Laika animation —
talking about challenges to Italy’s industry status. Not only
are the Milan runway shows being eclipsed by London, but Chinese investors are buying up
Italian marques and know-how
so they can stamp Made In Italy
on their products. The town of
Prato, the traditional center of
the wool trade, has the secondlargest Chinese community in
Italy.
The show includes more than
100 ensembles and accessories,
and near the end it includes
some Portland designers’ work,
including a plastic wedding
dress by Elizabeth Dye, just before you are spit into the gift
shop for the inevitable retail
therapy.
With minimal signage the
show forces you to consider
clothing as sculpture.
hood,” said Bill Yaeger, whose
house looks into the bungalow’s
backyard. “While most of them
are nice people, it’s still an imposition.
“We believe that it’s a use that’s
inconsistent with a residential
neighborhood.”
Brem said the issue may be a
low priority to some people, but
it’s a constant source of irritation
for her family. “You know why it’s
a low priority? They don’t live
next door to one,” she said. “Trust
me, if they lived next door to one,
it would be a bigger issue.”
In a two-page Dec. 1 letter,
Brem and Yaeger outlined several problems they face each time
someone rents the 1,680-squarefoot 1938 bungalow. A backyard
fire pit is often a focal point of
trouble, Brem said, because it is
adjacent to her home’s master
bedroom.
“We have been awakened early
mornings by boisterous outdoor
photo shoots, group yoga classes
and by children being sent outside to play,” they wrote to commissioners. “Our sleep has been
repeatedly disturbed by parties
and bonfires.”
Brem and Yaeger said they
tried, without much luck, to work
with the bungalow’s owner, a former neighbor who moved and
then rented the house through
VRBO.com. The owner declined
to comment for this news story.
County officials say the owner
isn’t violating any county laws by
renting the house for short stays.
Portland officials faced a similar “sharing economy” battle
with Uber, the ride-sharing program challenging local taxi companies. After weeks of fruitless
talks, Uber representatives entered the Portland market in December, and promptly faced fines
and city legal action.
Uber and Portland called a
truce and the ride-sharing company decided to delay its local
launch until city officials could
rewrite private for-hire transportation regulations.
At the same time, several suburban communities, including
Tigard and Beaverton, gladly
opened their doors to Uber. Those
cities don’t regulate taxis as tightly as Portland.
In Washington County’s case,
Brem and Yaeger offered in their
December letter nearly a dozen
proposals for rules on short-term
rentals in residential areas, such
as requiring licenses and permits
to operate, fines for repeated violations, collection of transient
taxes, limits on noise, and requiring property owners to be available by phone to respond to complaints.
“This is so new that some governments haven’t adopted rules
for it yet,” Yaeger said. “So it’s up
to people like us who are on the
front lines, so to speak. We try to
raise a stink about it.”
Roberts said the county
wasn’t anxious to jump into the
complex issue. Planners most
likely will send a letter to commissioners with the long-range
planning proposals outlining the
issue and giving the board an option to dedicate staff time to possible rules.
“These kinds of things come
up periodically,” Roberts said.
“Cell towers came up like this
20 years ago. Medical marijuana dispensaries were last
year’s hot topic. We just have to
step back and say, ‘Is this something we’re concerned about,
and do we want to regulate it?’”
Brem and Yaeger hope the
answer is yes.
“We’re at a disadvantage,”
Brem said. “We don’t live in a
city, and this seems to be done
on a city-by-city basis.
“I understand that they have
a lot of big issues to deal with,
and there’s only so much they
can do. I guess I’m happy to get
this discussion started.”

it has all-wheel-drive,” says William, an 11 Bravo Bradley Master Gunner.
William was chosen from
more than 300 nominees entered
during the competition. His
nomination was submitted by
his mother-in-law, who wrote a
stirring tribute noting William’s
repeated tours of duty in Iraq,
where he suffered a broken hand
and received several awards for
rescuing members of his units
during attacks.
“Pride of country and love for
his family are evident in everything he does. I hope you agree
that there is no one more deserving than Beau Childs and I am so
proud that he is a part of my family and I am deeply honored to
nominate him as My Hero!” she
wrote.
Swickard, whose father was a
Vietnam veteran, has long been
involved in philanthropic efforts
and decided to give away a new
car to a military person. Instead
of us just choosing someone at
random, he launched a statewide Nominate A Hero search
that included a website where a
photo and a story could be submitted. A third-party panel consisting of veterans, military
families, and government officials made the difficult final selection.

Have a reaction plan
Precautionary measures can
be taken to reduce the chances
breakdown. The easiest way is
to keep your vehicle well-maintained. In the cold winter
months it’s especially important
to check the air pressure in all
tires, tire tread wear, and your
vehicle’s fluids regularly. You
should also carry an emergency
roadside kit in your vehicle that
includes signaling devices, a
pocket knife, a flashlight, a first
aid kit, water, nonperishable
food, and a warm blanket. If you
are a frequent traveler, consider
investing in a roadside assistance service.
Use your hazard lights
When you sense a problem
with your vehicle and decide to
pull over, turn on your hazard
lights or “emergency flashers.”
Hazard lights will visibly notify
other drivers you may be driving slowly or erratically. When
other drivers see your hazard
lights flashing it makes it easier
for them to respond and allow
you to pull over to reach the
shoulder.

Pull over the right way
Get help
If you do feel the need to pull
over and are on the highway or
interstate, the ideal course of action is to pull off at a rest stop or
get off at the nearest exit. However, if you suspect your vehicle
will not make it that far and you
must use the emergency shoulder, make sure your vehicle is as
far to the right as possible. Once
parked, stay inside your vehicle
with your seat belt on, whenever
possible. If you must exit the vehicle, always do so from the
right side to avoid traffic.
If you know you’re going to
need assistance, use your cell
phone to call a roadside assistance service or the highway
patrol. In the case that you do
not have a cell phone, hang a
white cloth or a piece of paper
out your window and wait for
the highway patrol. Also make
sure your car doors remain
locked at all times.
Set up traffic
warning signals
If you have enough distance
between your vehicle and the
nearest lane, and traffic is not
too heavy, carefully exit your vehicle on the right hand side to
set up a traffic warning signal.
Cones, reflective triangles, or
flares can all be used. Then
quickly return inside your vehicle. Safety should always be
your first priority, so only exit
your vehicle if it is necessary
and safe to do so.
For more tips on how to stay
safe on the road, consider taking
a driver improvement course,
such as the AARP Smart Driver
course, available online or in a
classroom setting near you, in
both English and Spanish. In
some states, you may even be
eligible for a multi-year insurance discount upon completion
of the course. AARP membership is not required to take the
course. For more information,

flagship application. 2014 was a record year for
automobile recalls, with more than 550 recalls
affecting more than 26 million vehicles.
Late last year, the company activated a
software feature that alerts users when there
has been a recall on cars that they own or are
looking to purchase. Now AutoAp is also
working with dealers, including the Carr Auto
Group, to provide a daily recall report on every
car on their lots. The company’s recall database
is updated and verified daily.
AutoAp differs from many used-car
information sites by allowing users to enter the
parameters of vehicles that they are looking for,
and the app then notifies them of when a vehicle
that matches becomes available. According to
AutoAp, this eliminates the need to repetitively
search other used car websites to find a perfect
match.
AutoAp is available as a free download in the
iTunes store and at Google Play.
Auto jobs soaring
According to the Detroit News, the United
States auto industry added 6,700 jobs in January,
hitting its highest level since March 2008.
Automakers and parts companies now employ
913,200 people in the country, and accounting for
nearly one-third of all new manufacturing jobs
in January. Industry employment is up by
nearly 300,000 jobs since hitting bottom in June
2009.
The job growth is being fueled by strong auto
sales, which rose 13.7 percent in January, in part
because of low gasoline prices increasing the
demand for trucks and other large vehicles.
Auto dealers are also adding jobs, and were up
2,900 jobs in January to 1.21 million, the highest
level since June 2008, the Detroit News reports.

Metro Auto Dealers present
check to six local charities
The Metro Portland New Car Dealers
Association presented a check for $500,000 to six
local charities during a ceremony at the Feb. 11
Portland Trailblazers game at the Moda Center.
The MPNDA raised most of the money —
$350,000 — on Feb. 4 at its annual Sneak Peek
Charity Preview Party before the opening of
the 2015 Portland International Auto Show. The
association, which produces the show and
party, donated the remaining $150,000 from
other funds it raises throughout the year.
“I was thrilled at the generosity of the
citizens of Portland and our own dealer body,”
said Greg Remensperger, MPNCDA and PIAS
executive director. “It was a remarkable night
of giving on behalf of organizations that strive
to serve the most needy in our community.”
Four of the charities have benefited from the
Sneak Peak Party in the past. They are
Providence Portland Medical Foundation,
Meals on Wheels People, Boys and Girls Club
and the Juvenile Diabetes Research
Foundation. The two new charities this year are
the Brain Injury Alliance of Oregon and Victory
Academy, a school that serves children
impacted by Autism.

hot ticket

Breakside, Hopworks
brewers will chill out
at annual event
By JENNIFER ANDERSON
The Tribune
Two of Portland’s most
popular craft brewers are
making a splash halfway
around the globe this month.
Breakside Brewery and Hopworks Urban Brewery are
heading to Iceland Feb. 26-27 for
the nation’s annual beer festival, marking 26 years Icelanders have been allowed to drink
beer.
The brewers will showcase
their beers as part of a contingent organized by Alex Briggs,
part of a group working with
ChefStable owner Kurt Huffman to open a new Portland
beer hall.
That venue — the Loyal Legion — soon will offer 99 Oregon brews on tap in the old

Hopworks Urban Brewery, will be up for tasting at an Iceland beer
festival this week.
ation building at Southeast
Sixth Avenue and Alder Street.
Now in its fourth year, the
Icelandic Beer Festival’s lineup
of U.S. breweries recently expanded to include beers from
Connecticut (Two Roads) and
Michigan (Founders).
Yet Oregon beers have always been part of the event,
and will remain a focal point,
organizers say.
“Our focus has been on
breweries from Oregon simply
because we like the way people from Oregon think and
how the craft beer movement
has been developing in that
particular state,” says Ólafur
Ígústsson, restaurant manager
at KEX Hostel, the site of the
festival in Reykjavik, Iceland’s
capital and largest city.
“We feel that we can connect to people from Portland
and all of Oregon. Reykjavik
has a lot in common.”
The Icelandic Beer Festival
marks March 1, 1989, the end of
the prohibition on beer in the
country.
“We feel like beer in Iceland needs its own festival so
people can come together to
celebrate this luxury beverage,” Ígústsson adds. “We
want people to come and
enjoy great beers, meet interesting people, eat good food
and listen to music.”
Breakside will bring two
beers to the festival: Breakside
IPA and Salted Caramel Stout.
Breakside IPA, a hoppy
American-style IPA, is the
company’s flagship beer and
won the Gold Medal at last
year’s Great American Beer
Festival. Salted Caramel Stout
is a seasonal brewed in collab-

hat would happen
if Burgerville
opened a sister
restaurant focusing not on burgers but fried
chicken? And focused on
brunch?
The fried chicken for brunch
idea might be sublime — and, in
fact, is — but that doesn’t mean
people would get it. At least not
right away.
That’s the same thing Bamboo
Izakaya is facing now, as a fourmonth-old restaurant on crowded Northeast Alberta Street.
The little sister to Bamboo Sushi — the Northwest Portland
eatery billed as the first sustainable sushi restaurant in the
world — is still trying to define
itself.
The dinner hour is packed,
noisy and fueled by an expansive bar menu of expensive sake,
Japanese whiskey and Japanese
shochu. A little wild, as an izakaya — a Japanese drinking establishment — should be.
But the weekend brunch
crowds haven’t yet materialized.
That’s despite the hoards of
hungry Portlanders and their
dogs waiting in line across the
street at the Tin Shed, where
hungry masses patiently wait
for hours.
Brunch at Bamboo Izakaya
(which will open a downtown
outpost within months) tries to
be a friend to all, but ends up
three-quarters hipster, one-quarter Americanized Japanese.
Take, for instance, the bacon
flight.
Yes, worthy of a “Portlandia”
sketch of its own, this tray of five
strips of bacon from five regions
is $11 and ranges from least to
most smoky.
The dry-aged, slow-smoked
Carlton Farms
holds its own
well against
the out-of-town
bacon from
California, Idaho, Tennessee
and Wisconsin.
The bacon
flight is the
unique offering here. Other
hipster staples
are ever-present: Not one,
but two types
of kimchee
Bloody Marys, fancy eggs Benedict, steak and eggs, Belgian
waffles with duck confit, and vanilla-ginger french toast.
And, of course, the signature
Bamboo burger, $14, with wagyu
beef, caramelized onions and

Tillamook white cheddar.
There is no sushi for brunch
here, and no ramen.
There also isn’t any of the
kushiyaki — meat cooked over
the authentic Japanese binchotan charcoal and Robata Yaki grill, somewhat sterile without the billowing smoke.
That’s a shame, since the binchotan-grilled salted mackerel
with citrusy ponzu sauce for dipping, specifically, is worth driving across town for. The pork
belly, skirt
steak and
chicken skewers are tender,
but missing
the char a
backyard barbecue gives.
All of that
Japanese fare
is saved for
dinnertime, after 5 p.m.
So what is
Japanese, exactly, about
Izakaya’s
brunch?
Brunch isn’t a thing, exactly,
in Japan.
Breakfast in Japan as I remember it consists of artfully arranged trays of fish and rice, miso soup and lots of little bowls of
things like natto (a fermented
soybean that is a very acquired
taste), pickled veggies, tofu and
chawanmushi (an egg custard
dish).
Bamboo Izakaya doesn’t bring
this, except a few token dishes.
The oyakodon (chicken and egg
over rice), $10, and ochazuke (literally meaning tea rice, this one
with grilled ocean trout as well),
$11, show their finesse with Japanese fare.
There’s also cold-smoked
steelhead, $10 — not with rice,
but frisee, coriander creme
fraiche and potatoes. The trout
does double duty as one of three
protein toppings for the eggs
Benedict, along with dungeness
crab and pork tenderloin. At $21
for a half-order of all three, this
brunch can get spendy.
Yes, it’s eclectic. But it’s also
confusing.
Cucumber slices in the water?
More spa than izakaya.

No rice in a
bowl of pork belly with kimchee
and a sunnyside egg? Downright
criminal. Beignets as a side
dish? The new Portland doughnut is delightfully light and airy,
balanced by the punch of sour
yuzu curd and a berry compote.
But why not a Japanese pastry, like mochi (a chewy rice
cake) or anpan (a sweet roll
filled with red bean), which are
art forms in and of themselves?
With Portland’s obsession for
Asian food, Bamboo Izakaya’s
brunch service could have been
a place to worship the art of Japanese pub fare and all the comfort it brings.
Instead, it’s a great familyfriendly place to get a bacon
flight and a beignet without the
90-minute wait.

of the Year in 2014.
“We think this is a fantastic
opportunity to share some of
our beers with a new audience,
and we are excited to see what is
happening in Iceland’s beer
scene,” says Ben Edmunds,
Breakside’s brewmaster. “There
is no doubt that some of the
most innovative and fun beer in
the world is coming out of Scandinavia right now, and this is a
unique opportunity for us to see
it firsthand and learn from our
Icelandic counterparts.”
Hopworks will bring three
beers to the event: Motherland
Russian Imperial Stout, Rise
Up IPA and Hopworks IPA. All
three showcase the Northwest
flavor profile, love of hops, and
the company’s mission for organics and high-quality beer.
Hopworks’ Thomas Bleigh
says he’s interested to see how
the Northwest beers are perceived in Iceland and also learn
more about the local beers in
Reykjavik.
“Drinking for me is an extension of community and social interaction,” Bleigh says. “I’m
looking forward to expanding
the conversation with Iceland.”

Discovered by blues songwriter Willie Dixon when he
was just a toddler, Peterson has

late 1960s and has released 18
solo albums, including 2014’s
“The Son of a Bluesman.” You
can see him as a boy performing
on TV if you search for him on
YouTube.
“I don’t remember doing this
stuff, but it’s fun to look at,” he
says.
A hard-working musician
who has become a staple performer at festivals here and
abroad, he says he enjoys both
the organ and guitar and plans
on mixing old and new material
in his “high-energy” Portland
show.

Lanois at this show, which

lap steel, all that stuff that puts

court for the Knights.
“It was hard, but it was something I agreed on,” he says. “I
was working out with the team
and practicing, just couldn’t
play in the games. It was real
tough to just watch.”
Since his WPC debut on Dec.
19, though, things have worked
out nicely for Jones and the
Knights. Going into Wednesday
night’s Cascade Collegiate Conference first-round playoff game
at home against Corban, he was
averaging 15.9 points per game,
just behind Doug Thomas’ 16.1.
Jones had scored between 9 and
27 points in all 17 of his games,
and was averaging 31.3 minute
per game, also second-most on
the squad.
Jones finished the NAIA Division 2 regular season at 51.6 percent from the field and a teamhigh 44.2 percent on 3-pointers
(34 of 77).
“I compare him to Tim Hardaway from his days with the
(Golden State) Warriors and
(Miami) Heat,” Harvey says.
“He’s impossible to guard oneon-one at this level.
“He’s definitely one of the
best point guards in the nation.
It will be tough for him to get
All-American, because he
missed the first 12 games, but
he’s definitely an All-Americancaliber player.”
Jones’ first game was against
crosstown rival Concordia. He
had 17 points, four rebounds
and three assists, with six turn-
If you suffer bouts of acid reflux, heartburn,
diarrhea, constipation, bloating, gas or IBS;
beware of digestion remedies like Prilosec®,
Prevacid® and Nexium®... They Can Cripple You!
By Damian Wexler,
Freelance Health Reporter
ecently, medical professionals and
alternative medicine experts have
taken to the airways to reveal a simple
secret that amazed millions who suffer with
digestion nightmares. And people haven’t
stopped talking about it since.
R
“I’d give anything
to make it stop!”
A recent FDA warning explained that
excessive use of antacids could lead to
an increased risk of hip, wrist, and spine
fractures. Especially in people over the age
of 50.
So when AloeCure® was presented on
National TV, you can imagine how thrilled
people were to find out they could finally
get relief without having to rely on Prevecid®,
Nexium®, Prilosec® and other dangerous
proton pump inhibitors. But now, your
stomach problems could be over by simply
drinking a small amount of a tasty Aloe Vera
extract. It’s as simple as that!
Drug Companies
Threatened by
Natural Digestion
Miracle
Nationwide Relief...
Over 4-million
bottles sold!
Seattle, WA: All across the country,
those suffering with digestion issues
are thrilled with the relief they get
from a new, natural remedy called
AloeCure®.
“More than ever, digestion sufferers
are flocking to our remarkable
product; especially since the FDA
has come down so hard on popular
antacids like Nexium®, Prilosec®,
Prevacid® and other proton pump
inhibitors.
Unlike drug company remedies,
AloeCure® isn’t a drug. It’s
something completely different.
AloeCure® not only squelches
your digestion problems… It helps
improve your digestion for longlasting relief.
You really have to try for yourself.
That’s why I’ve given the readers of
this newspaper an opportunity to
try AloeCure® absolutely risk-free.
(See bottom of article)
-Doug Jewett, CEO
American Global Health Group
Finally There’s Hope...
At first, the thought of drinking aloe vera
might make some people back away. But
in fact, this delicious “digestion cocktail”
is doing amazing things for people who
suffer with stomach problems --- even if
they’ve had them for years. Here’s how it
works…
Stop Stomach Agony
Your stomach naturally produces acid so
strong, it can dissolve an aluminum spoon
in just 30 minutes! And when excess acid
escapes into your esophagus, throat and
stomach lining, it unleashes the scorching
pain of Acid-Reflux, heartburn, ulcers and
more misery. Add the problems of stress,
and “all heck breaks loose.”
Dr. Liza Leal, a well known expert on
chronic pain management explains... “The
AloeCure® can work genuine miracles.
It buffers high acid levels with amazing
speed. So your stomach feels completely at
ease just moments after drinking it.” In fact,
it could wipe out stomach pain, discomfort,
and frantic runs to the bathroom.
overs.
“I was so anxious, but not really nervous, if that makes
sense,” he says. “Once I caught
that first sweat, I was ready to
go.”
As for the turnovers, “Man,
my legs were heavy,” he says. “I
just wasn’t up to game speed
then.”
A few weeks ago, Jones was
named the conference player of
the week after helping the
Knights knock off then-No. 3
College of Idaho 81-62 with 17
points, four assists and two
steals.
“That was huge,” Jones says
of the upset.
Until Now,
Little Could Be Done...
But “AloeCure® can help virtually anyone.
Even people with chronic stomach pain
can feel better right away,” says Dr. Leal.
And what’s really exciting is AloeCure® aids
in keeping your digestive tract healthy, so
intestinal distress stops coming back.
As Ralph Burns goes on to say, “I know
AloeCure® never claimed to be a substitute
for drug store products and is only meant
to be a helpful supplement. Now though,
AloeCure® is the only product I need for all
my digestion issues”

That’s what most people will tell you
when asked about their digestive problems.
“It’s just horrible says Ralph Burns, a former
digestion victim. I was tortured for years
by my Acid-Reflux. Sometimes I’d almost
pass out from the pain. My wife suffers
with digestion problems too. If she eats
one wrong thing, she spends hours stuck in
the bathroom dealing with severe bouts of
constipation or diarrhea.”
COURTESY OF WARNER PACIFIC COLLEGE
Warner Pacific guard Earl Jones,
a 5-8 junior, sat out the early
season to get acclimated in the
classroom and on campus, then
turned in on, averaging 15.9
points per game.
It also was part of a 7-1 finish
for the Knights, who wound up
with a 14-4 league record and
shared first place with C of I and
Concordia.
Jones says he isn’t satisfied
with his first-year performance at Warner Pacific and
wants “more and more” from
himself as the team’s floor general.
“I’m for sure going to go off
for 30 (points),” he says with a
laugh. “I just need to get more
aggressive (on both ends of the
court). Just need to get back to
that killer mentality.
“I want teams to be studying me and focusing on me. I
don’t mean to sound cocky.
Not that I’m LeBron James,
but I want teams to scout for
me. I want to be the very
best, and I believe I’m one of
the best players (in the NAIA).”
Harvey says Jones came in
and rewarded the Knights’
coaching staff for their faith in
him.
“He’s impressed since Day 1
on campus,” Harvey says.
“He’s for sure a steal. The Lord
works things out.”
Jones looks forward to his
next year of eligibility.
“The goal is to finish school
with a degree in sports medicine and get a job overseas,
hooping,” he says. “Hopefully
in Europe.”
Anxiety and depression are
in the past, and he is enjoying
living in the moment.
“I truly am happy,” he says.

Eggers: Adelman saw game change
■ From page 12
of their six children who live in
Oregon, along with eight grandchildren (two more are on the
way).
“That’s been great,” Adelman
says. “The grandkids are a ball.
There are games on Saturdays
to attend. It’s a lot of fun watching them grow up.”
Adelman ended his 23-year
career as an NBA head coach
last April after three seasons
with the Minnesota Timberwolves. Over his 22 full seasons,
Adelman experienced five losing campaigns — his two with
Golden State from 1995-97 and
and the three years with the
Timberwolves.
The Los Angeles native ranks
eighth on the NBA coaches career-win list with a record of
1,042-749. He is 10th on the career
playoff win list with a mark of
79-78.
Adelman took 16 teams to
the postseason, including the
1990 and ‘92 Portland teams
that reached the NBA finals. Of
the coaches ahead of him on
the win list, only Phil Jackson,
Pat Riley, Jerry Sloan and
George Karl have better winloss percentages.
Does Adelman miss coaching?
“Not really,” he says. “I miss
being around the people. I miss
the competitiveness. I miss the
game itself. I don’t miss the everyday grind. It got to be too
much.”
What, specifically?
“The travel,” he says. “Everything has gotten more intrusive.
You have to speak (to the media) before and after every
game. You get asked the same
question over and over again,
and you have no news.
“When I first started, you’d go
to practice and deal with your
players and play the games.
Now you’re dealing with the
agents and the players’ lives.
There are more everyday
things. That part of it wasn’t
fun.”
Adelman was an original Trail
Blazer, the point guard on Portland’s first NBA teams from
1970-73. His roommate on the
road was Geoff Petrie, who
served as his boss as general
manager of the Blazers and Sacramento Kings from 1990-2006.
After a six-year stint as head
coach at Chemeketa Community
College from 1977-83, Adelman
served as an assistant coach
with the Blazers for 5 1/2 seasons
Rick Adelman,
retired NBA
coach, says his
1989-92 Trail
Blazers teams
are his all-time
favorites.

under Jack Ramsay and Mike
Schuler. When Schuler was fired
in February 1988, Adelman took
over the head-coaching reins.
What followed was the best
five-year run in the Blazers’
45-year history. In Adelman’s
five full seasons as head coach,
Portland went 277-133 — averaging 55 victories — and twice
made it to the NBA finals.
The teams from 1989-92 featured Clyde Drexler, Terry Porter, Jerome Kersey, Buck Williams, Kevin Duckworth and
Cliff Robinson.
“That was the favorite group
over my entire coaching career,”
Adelman says. “I went from getting a job to getting to the finals
my first year. That doesn’t happen very often. Those teams
were special.”
Adelman was fired by owner
Paul Allen after going 47-35 in
1993-94 and being ousted in the
first round of the playoffs for the
second straight season. When
Allen chose to dismiss Adelman,
Petrie resigned his position.
“I still believe they broke that
team up too early,” Adelman
says. “I wanted one more chance
with that group, but that was
Paul’s decision. And I’m great by
Paul. He gave me my first shot.”
Adelman went to Golden
State, where his teams suffered
through two losing seasons.
Then Petrie, who had taken over
as president/basketball operations at Sacramento, hired Adelman as coach. Thus began a remarkable eight-year run in
which the Kings had eight
straight winning seasons and
reached the Western Conference finals in 2002, losing in seven games to the Los Angeles
Lakers.
The Kings, led by players
such as Chris Webber, Peja Stojakovic, Vlade Divac and Mike
Bibby, had five straight 50-win
seasons.
“I got to coach two teams that
were really special,” Adelman
says. “We didn’t win a championship, but both groups were fun
to coach, yet totally different
groups.
“The Blazers were physical.
We had the three best offensive
rebounders at their position in
the league — Clyde, Buck and
Jerome. Sometimes it seems like
we’d throw it up there just to get
it back and get a better shot. Sacramento was a more finesse
team. Everybody could pass. Everybody could shoot.”
Adelman had four straight
winning seasons in Houston,
then moved to Minnesota, where
injuries eroded what could have
been a great turnaround from a
17-65 season the year before he
arrived. Adelman’s Minnesota
teams went 26-40, 31-51 and 4042.
“The first year was a disaster,” he says. “I never had such a
group of guys who didn’t know
how to play in the NBA. They
were undisciplined; they didn’t
listen.
“The second year, that group
was starting to play pretty well,
but Kevin Love broke his hand
twice and Ricky Rubio hurt his
knee. Last year, we had a great
chance to make the playoffs, but
we had guys missing throughout
the whole season.”
There were more personal
concerns. In January, Mary Kay
suffered a series of seizures,
causing Rick to be away from
the team for 11 games. At the
end of the season, Adelman
chose to retire.
“I believe I could have returned,” he says, “but it was the
right thing to do. It was a combination of things — not just Mary
Kay’s health, but me, too. The
last three years were really difficult. I wanted to get out of the
rat race.
“We wanted to get back to
Portland. Minnesota is tough in
the winter. We had a place
downtown. I was five to 10 minutes from the arena. But it got to
be too much.”
Adelman isn’t sure he likes
what has become an impossible
NBA game to officiate.
“The league won’t be happy
with me saying it, but we used to
have a rulebook,” he says. “Now
we just have interpretations.
There are no rules anymore. Every few years, everything
changes.
“The most dramatic thing is
post defense. The rules changed
five, six times through my coaching career. There are no traveling calls anymore. (Referees)
have too much to look at. You
have to get used to it, you have
to accept it, and the players and
coaches generally do. They go
with the flow, and they understand that’s the way it’s going to
be called. Sometimes it changes
game to game, and you have to
adjust to that.
“Players are so athletic now,
and it has become an impossible
game to referee. They do their
best, but there are so many
younger officials, it takes them
awhile to figure it all out.”
Adelman says there are many
changes in the game since he began as a player in the late 1960s.
“It’s completely different from
when I played,” he says. “The
coaching is so much better now,
with the scouting and the number of coaches. Everybody is
prepared for every game.
“The 3-point shot has changed
everything. It used to be that every team had post-up players.
There are not a whole lot of postup players in the league anymore. It’s all 3-point shooting.
The game is spread out, and the
big people are very skilled, too,
shooting 3’s. The players are so
much better now.”
Adelman always did a great
job working with the varying
skill sets of his players.
“You have to adapt to the
team you have,” he says. “Everybody talks about a system.
Your system has to be able to
adjust to the talent you have.
“(San Antonio’s Gregg) Popovich has shown that. His team
now is totally different than it
was before. Good coaches adjust
to the players because it’s a players’ league, not a coaches’
league. I don’t care who you are,
if you have bad talent, you’re not
going to win in the league.”
How did Adelman do it?
“By understanding every
player is different,” he says.
“You don’t treat everybody the
same. There are some players
who accept more discipline. Other players will not allow you to
call them out in front of the team
or in the newspaper. You have to
put the players in a position
where they feel they can succeed, and the team can succeed,
too. If you can win, they’ll buy into it.
“That’s a hard thing nowadays. Many players have an entourage. It’s not one agent;
sometimes it’s four agents. It’s
family and friends and hangerson. Everybody has an influence.
You have to figure out how to
deal with that. The only way you
can is to form a relationship with
the player, where he trusts you.
Otherwise, he’s not going to listen to you after awhile.”
Adelman did a marvelous job
of getting his players to buy in.
He got the most out of players
who had feuded with other
coaches, players such as Rod
Strickland and Webber and Latrell Sprewell. A rare exception
was Tim Hardaway, whom he
had trouble with at Golden
State.
“I blame a lot of that on myself,” Adelman says. “I went
from the Trail Blazer job,
where everything broke well
for us until the end when they
fired me, but it was a great scenario. When I went to the Warriors, I listened to people I
shouldn’t have listened to instead of doing it how I felt it
should be done. I alienated
Tim, got on his bad side, and it
was hard to turn that back
around. We ended up trading
him and making other trades,
and it didn’t work out.
“I learned my lesson. If
you’re going to succeed, you’d
better figure out a way to get
along with your main players.
For the most part, I was able to
do that.”
Coaching is in his rear-view
mirror now, with family issues
at the forefront. Mary Kay’s
health has improved.
“Doctors have never identified exactly why she had the
seizures,” Adelman says. “They
think it might have been some
type of virus. She has not had
any lately. The medicine is hard
on her, but she’s doing good.”
One of Adelman’s three sons,
David, coached with him in
Minnesota and remains on the
Timberwolves’ staff under Flip
Saunders.
“That was one of the hardest
things about walking away,”
Adelman says. “I brought David into it, and now he has to
earn his own way. But that’s
what it’s all about.”
The oldest boy, R.J., worked
as director of player personnel
with the Timberwolves during
Rick’s time there. R.J. is now
living in Houston.
The youngest son, Patrick, is
in his first season as head
coach at Thurston High in Eugene.
“He does a good job,” Adelman says. “I’ve seen his team
play three or four times.”
The three girls — Kathy,
Laura and Caitlin — are in
Portland.
Adelman says he is finally
beginning to feel like a retired
person. He’s on the first of a
three-year contract as a consultant with the Timberwolves,
but says that hasn’t occupied
much of his time. Adelmen,
who has dealt with Type 2 diabetes in recent years, he is
spending more time exercising.
Rick and Mary Kay own a vacation home in Black Butte and
recently spent 10 days vacationing in Arizona, where he
got out his golf clubs for the
first time in more than a year.
“We want to travel some,”
he says. “Now we have the
time.”
While in Sacramento, the
Adelmans bought the house in
Dunthorpe, and it now has become home.
“It’s been great being back in
Portland full time,” he says.
As a reporter who has always respected Adelman as a
coach and enjoyed him as a
person, I’d like to see two
things happen.
The Blazers should stage a
Rick Adelman Night during a
game at the Moda Center. Introduce him, allow the fans to
cheer for him, and reward him
for the 14 years he spent with
the franchise as a player and
coach.
And Adelman should join his
mentor, Ramsay, as a member
of the Naismith Hall of Fame.
“I don’t think about that,”
he says. “I wonder about
some of the people who have
been left out. Bill Fitch and
Dick Motta aren’t in. George
Karl? Doesn’t seem right.
“It would be an honor to
get in, but I’m not concerned
about it. I won’t feel incomplete if I don’t make it. I was
very fortunate in my career. I
had really good players and
had some success. And the
best place of all was Portland. It was a great run. I’m
thankful.”

The loser in that duel will

will McCollum, small forward
Dorell Wright, and perhaps defensive specialist Alonzo Gee,

But Stotts’ straight eight will
be the five starters plus Blake,

Add either Leonard and
Freeland and you have the

BLAZERS RESET
THEIR ROTATION
TRIBUNE PHOTO: JAIME VALDEZ
New Trail Blazer Arron Afflalo (4) congratulates Steve Blake after a 3-point basket in Sunday’s game against Memphis, which was Afflalo’s first with Portland.
■ New arrival Afflalo joins top eight, will play at two positions
By KERRY EGGERS
The Tribune
The acquisition of Arron
Afflalo changes plenty with
the Trail Blazers as they
head toward the playoffs.
The 6-5, 215-pound Afflalo,
recently arrived via trade from
Denver, is going to play. The
questions are, in what role, and
how much?
Also: What does Portland’s
rotation look like moving forward?
Blazers coach Terry Stotts
addressed that before Afflalo’s
Portland debut, a 98-92 loss to
Memphis Sunday night at
Moda Center.
“There are 240 minutes (to
dole out each game among
players),” Stotts says. “I’ve always said we have our five
starters, plus Steve (Blake) and
Chris (Kaman). Now you add
Arron. That’s eight players.
How much deeper do I go than
that? Probably another ‘big,’
but it’s hard to play more than
nine guys.”
The additional ‘big’ would be
either 7-1 Meyers Leonard,
who has been playing the best
ball of his three-year NBA career, or 6-11 Joel Freeland, who
had missed 21 games with a
partially torn rotator cuff going
into Wednesday night’s home
date with San Antonio.
More on that in a moment.
Afflalo’s Portland debut
against Memphis was OK,
nothing more. He sank a
17-foot baseline jumper on his
first possession late in the first
quarter and finished with
eight points on 2-for-6 shooting to go with four rebounds,
two assists and two turnovers
in 24 minutes.
Stotts used Afflalo in place of
Wesley Matthews at shooting
guard and with Matthews
while small forward Nicolas
Batum was on the bench.
“Arron is a very good scorer,
a good 3-point shooter, a tough
defender,” Stotts says. “I see
him as a wing player. He’ll
blend in well whether he’s
playing alongside Wes or Nic.
It will depend a lot on the
matchups.”
The Blazers should be stronger with Afflalo’s presence.
“Big-time,” Memphis veteran Zach Randolph says of the
acquisition of Afflalo. “He
knows how to play. A great
pick-up for them.”
“It’s huge,” Batum says. “He
has experience. He had a great
year last year in Orlando. He
brings it every game. He al-
ways seemed to play well
against us. I’m glad he’s my
teammate now.”
Afflalo, 29, is in a backup role
for the first time since his second of two seasons in Detroit,
which drafted him out of UCLA
in the first round of the 2007
draft. During his final (junior)
year at UCLA, Afflalo was a
consensus All-American, Pac10 player of the year and MVP
of the West regional in leading

ast week, George Karl

coaching duties with

“I’m retired,” says Adelman,

The man who meant so much
to Trail Blazer basketball as
both a player and coach is still
transitioning into retirement after an NBA career that spanned
3 1/2 decades.
“What have I been doing? Not
all that much,” Adelman says
with a laugh. “It seems like time
just flies by.”

years, Mary Kay, have kept
busy moving their possessions

Jones makes most of his second chance
After four-year hiatus
from basketball, point
guard shines for WP
By JON FUCCILLO
For The Tribune
Four years without competitive basketball were like
hell on Earth for Earl Jones.
“I thought life was over,” he
says. “I was lost.”
Now Jones, a former Mt.
Hood Community College star,
is back in uniform, playing for
nationally ranked Warner Pacific College and enjoying the
student-athlete ride again.
“I don’t know where my life
would be without this second
chance,” says the 5-8, 170-pound
guard from Henderson, Nev.
Jones, a Warner Pacific junior, has a hard time explaining
why he left the college game
after earning all-league honors
at Mt. Hood in 2009 and 2010.
He left Mt. Hood before graduating, because of “personal issues that I needed to address.”
He also says it boiled down to
life choices and taking more responsibility for his actions. “I
was immature and made a lot of
mistakes,” he says.
Jones says while he was out
of college he struggled a lot
with anxiety and depression,
while working various jobs in
the Las Vegas area.
“Those were the worst times
of my life,” he says. “I was so
depressed and missed being in
college and playing the game I
loved so much. I really messed
things up. ... “
Jones says he started to feel
numb most days, but never
