In 1982, social scientists James
Q. Wilson and George L. Kelling
wrote a lengthy piece in The Atlantic Monthly magazine outlining
their Broken Windows theory of
criminality. Basically, the theory
goes, public disorder signals that a
neighborhood is not well maintained, which sets off a chain of
Almost a year after the fatal shooting of
Grady Waxenfelter, the prime suspect in his
murder has been arrested.
The Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office has issued a statement that Dirck Morgan White, 42,
was wounded after allegedly leading Los Angeles Police Department officers on a foot chase
and firing on them when police confronted him
about a motor-vehicle burglary on Sunday, Nov.
30.
White is being treated at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center under police guard. He is listed in
critical condition.
White could face charges of attempted murder of a police officer in addition to murder and
unlawful possession of a firearm.
Waxenfelter, a married father of three and
Estacada First Baptist Church
elder, was shot to death at Highway 224 and Amisigger Road
the morning of Thursday, Feb. 6.
According to the Clackamas
County Sheriff’s Office, Waxenfelter, in his capacity as Clackamas County weighmaster,
pulled White over for hauling
wood in a truck trailer without
WAXENFELTER
a license plate.
White had been working as a
delivery driver for O’Malley Brothers Trucking.
During the traffic stop, White allegedly shot
Waxenfelter in the head and drove away.
The homicide was witnessed by a civilian
passenger in Waxenfelter’s vehicle, according
to the Sheriff’s Office.
White was quickly named as the prime suspect in the murder.
He also was wanted on a Pierce County weapons charge and for questioning in a child rape
case.
For months, the Clackamas County Sheriff’s
Office and U.S. Marshals office searched for
White.
The sheriff’s office released information
about an alleged April 5 sighting of White in
Iowa, but issued no further statements about
White’s suspected whereabouts.
Meanwhile, following a damning report on
the Clackamas County Weighmaster program,
the county ordered a halt to traffic stops and the
patrol functions of the Weighmaster program.
The internal county report had concluded
that the Weighmaster Program in the Transportation Maintenance Division had virtually no
policies, procedures or safety equipment for its
routine patrols.
Waxenfelter’s widow, Tedra, planned to sue
the county for $2.75 million in a wrongful death
suit, but the county agreed to settle for $700,000.
The Clackamas County Commissioners recently raised the reward for information leading to White’s arrest to $25,000.
The Los Angeles Police Department has not
released any further information on the circumstances surrounding White’s arrest.
A Clackamas County Sheriff’s detective has
traveled to Los Angeles to continue with the investigation.

Broken: Residents’ unease not same as fear

events that leads to violent
crime. Responsible citizens may
stay inside and cede the streets
to criminals, or they stop riding
the buses and trains, which
leads to the buses and trains becoming more dangerous. People
with criminal tendencies might
feel emboldened.
The article emphasized the
need for small problems to be
quickly addressed, and led to
strategies that emphasized
police paying more attention
to low-level quality of life
violations.
“Serious street crime flourishes in areas in which disorderly
behavior goes unchecked. The
unchecked panhandler is, in effect, the first broken window,”
Wilson and Kelling wrote.
But if signs of civic disorder
are supposed to encourage
crime, what to make of Portland?
A few weeks ago, DeMarco entertained a retired couple from
Manhattan who visit Portland
two or three times a year and
were upset by the Portland
street scene.
“She said, �What we see going
on would not wash in Manhattan,’” DeMarco recalls.
Portland accepts a level of
Broken Windows-style civic disorder that most major U.S. cities
won’t tolerate, says the well-traveled DeMarco. And yet, Portland
has the nation’s lowest big city
homicide rate and the fourthlowest violent crime rate. Our
property crime rate is a little below average. By almost any
measure, Portland is a remarkably safe city. It’s not supposed
to work that way, say adherents
of the Broken Windows theory.
Sharks and dolphins
If Frank Zimring were to talk
about Portland’s perceived problem in and around Old Town,
he’d probably say that it comes
down to sharks and dolphins.
Zimring is the author of “The
City That Became Safe: New
York’s Lessons for Urban
Crime and Its Control,” in
which he looked at the dramatic drop in crime that took place
in New York City beginning in
the mid-1990’s. The New York
crime drop is often attributed
to Broken Windows policing
initiated by the Rudy Giuliani
administration.
Two of the first policing initiatives under Mayor Giuliani and
police commissioner Bill Bratton
focused on clear signs of public
disorder: subway turnstile jumpers and squeegee men.
Transit police stationed themselves at turnstiles and arrested
those who jumped barriers in order to ride the subways for free.
Short, concentrated missions allowed police to arrest men who
would jump out at cars stopped
at red lights and, unasked, start
washing their windows with
squeegees and, usually, dirty wa-

question the connection between social disorder and public safety.
ter. When the light turned
green, the men would knock on
the driver’s window demanding
payment.
What’s important, Zimring
says, is what police discovered
after their arrests. The squeegee
men, for the most part, were not
connected in any way to significant criminal activity. But many
of the turnstile jumpers had outstanding warrants for previous
crimes. Catching them in the act
and arresting them probably did
prevent future crimes, according
to Zimring.
“Fare jumpers wanted to get
into the subway not to go anywhere, but to rob people,”
Zimring says. “What we’re after
are sharks, not dolphins. The
people urinating in front of small
businesses in Portland are dolphins. They’re not going to stick
up anybody.”
Knowing the difference between civic disorder that is simply annoying, and disorder that
correlates to significant crime is
critical to understanding when
Broken Windows works and
when it doesn’t, Zimring says. In
fact, Zimring says, the Broken
Windows theory may have done
more harm than good nationwide because in some cities it
has encouraged police abuse.
What is acceptable disorder?
University of California-Irvine,
criminologist Charis Kubrin
doesn’t even buy into the idea
that catching turnstile jumpers
in New York City contributed to
a lower crime rate. She isn’t a
fan of Broken Windows at all.
“Tinkering with disorder at
the margins isn’t going to have
that great an impact on crime
and may, in fact, do more harm,”
says Kubrin.
To highlight the danger of taking Broken Windows too literally, Kubrin cites the wide-ranging
stop and frisk policies that
evolved in New York City in recent decades and the resultant
worsening relationships between residents and police there.
Good relationships between police and neighborhood residents
has been shown to correlate
with lower crime rates.
Part of the problem with Broken Windows, Kubrin says, is
that people have different views
of unacceptable disorder, especially in cities such as Portland
and San Francisco, where a certain level of disorder is tolerated.
In the original Broken Windows article, Wilson and Kelling
cited a survey conducted in Portland in which three-fourths of
adults interviewed said they
would cross to the other side of a
street when they saw a gang of
teenagers.
“You ask people what is disorder and depending on who they
are and where they live, you’re
going to get completely different
answers,” Kubrin says. A small
group of young men just standing on a street corner? “Most
middle-class white people would
consider it disorder, and I’m not
sure everyone sees that as disorder,” she says.
Aggressive panhandling, according to Kubrin, is more widely viewed as disorder.
“People want to be left alone,”
she says.
But what about extreme incivility — the motorist flashing a
middle finger as he drives past,
or the in-your-face litterer, or
the driver who speeds through
a residential neighborhood or
“What we’re after are
sharks, not dolphins.

They’re not going to

fails to stop at a crosswalk for
pedestrians? What aggravates
some people to the point they
think the vandals are loose
barely gets noticed by others.
“There have to be a million
background factors in place for
disorder to lead to crime,” says
David Thacher, a University of
Michigan professor of public
policy and urban planning who
has written extensively about
Broken Windows policing. Racial tensions can be one of
those background factors.
“Disorder can contribute to
more serious crime if there’s already some sense of fear in the
air,” Thacher says.
Chicago-based police consultant Alexander Weiss is a believer in Broken Windows policing — when it is judiciously
applied. Indianapolis police officers weren’t writing many traffic tickets until Weiss was
hired as a consultant and, according to Weiss, convinced
the city that making more traffic stops in high-crime areas
and writing more tickets was
worthwhile. The result was a
drop in violent crime, and
Weiss says one of the reasons
was a general sense of increased surveillance in those
neighborhoods — a Broken
Windows deterrent.
“It goes back to the same basic idea,” Weiss says. “If you
have people who don’t respect
social norms, they drive badly,
they drive recklessly. Many
times they’re felony offenders as
well.”
What makes Portland different?
Harvard sociologist Robert J.
Sampson says it’s no surprise
Portland has a low crime rate,
even with its visible signs of disorder. The city has a relatively
affluent and educated populace
and strong neighborhood identification — factors that correlate
with less crime. It’s possible
that Portland’s history of including neighborhood associations
in civic discussions also has
kept it safer. It doesn’t hurt,
Sampson says, that Portland
has a small minority population,
which consistently correlates
with a lower crime rate in cities
nationwide.
Portland police chief Mike Reese says in some areas, Portland
has been extremely responsive
to civic disorder. Litter, in his
view, is less tolerated here than
in most cities. The business
community pays nonprofit
Clean and Safe to remove graffiti in the downtown area. When
he arrived in Portland, Reese
says, there were many abandoned cars in city neighborhoods. Aggressive parking ordinance enforcement has mostly
taken care of that problem,
ratcheting down residents’ perception of disorder in their
neighborhoods, Reese says.
The Travelers, also known as
Road Warriors, have ratcheted
up perceptions of disorder in
Portland in recent years. These
bedraggled homeless youth often block sidewalks with their
small groups that often include
large dogs. This past summer,
according to Reese, officers
took a different approach to
dealing with the Travelers. Police on foot went out of their
way to ask Travelers where
they had come from and why
they were in town. He says as a
result the youths probably
were less of a public nuisance
than in previous summers.
Reese says regardless of
whether public disorder correlates with rising crime rates, it’s
important that police respond
when residents complain about
aggressive street people.
“My experience has been you
need to pay attention to the little
things because they impact peoples’ perception and fear of
crime and disorder,” Reese says.
The Chinese Garden’s DeMarco thinks that Portlanders have
come to regard the disorder represented by abandoned buildings and homeless people on the
streets differently than people in
many other cities, recognizing
they don’t necessarily connect to
criminal activity. And that may
be why Portland’s Broken Windows don’t necessarily translate
into fear.
“I don’t think we’re threatened,” DeMarco says. “We are
personally worried. When I look
at young people or families out
on the street, I feel terrible. I
don’t feel unsafe. I just feel worried for them.”

City ready to OK short- term
rentals in apartments, condos
Mayor, council
downplay effect on
affordable housing
By STEV E LAW
The Tribune
The Portland City Council is
poised to “roll the dice” on an
expansion of Airbnb-style
rentals into apartments and
condos, hoping it doesn’t do
much to worsen the city’s affordable housing shortage.
Portland Mayor Charlie Hales
said at a recent council work session that his colleagues are close
to agreement on his proposal to
legalize short-term rentals in
multifamily properties. That
would allow tenants in apartments, and condo owners or tenants, to rent rooms on a nightly
basis to tourists and other visitors, if they have their landlord’s
or homeowners’ association permission.
Hales doesn’t deny that shortterm rentals will reduce the stock
of affordable housing, but argues
that Airbnb-style operations already are occurring here, even if
illegal, and the impact isn’t likely
to be significant.
At a recent City Council work
session, Hales said there are
about 80,000 multifamily units
in Portland, and about 500 of
those are now used by Airbnb
hosts to rent out rooms. Developers have added about 5,000
multifamily units in Portland
this year alone, Hales said, estimating that about 2,000 of those
are affordable housing.
Justin Buri, executive director
of the Community Alliance of
Tenants, said his group isn’t
“banging on pots and pans and
screaming at the top of our
lungs” to thwart the policy, “but I
can see it getting to that point.”
Buri and John Miller, executive
director of the affordable housing
coalition Oregon Opportunity
Network, told city commissioners the city needs to tightly enforce its new short-term rental
policies to keep the impact on
affordable housing to a minimum.
“Our hope is this isn’t going to
have a huge impact if the rules
are being enforced,” Miller said.
But so far, the city is relying on
neighbors to file complaints to
among city councilors about the
impact to affordable housing, lobbied Hales to put a 10 percent cap
in the mayor’s proposal, so that
no more than one-tenth of the
units in any apartment building
or condo project could be used
for short-term rentals.
However, Fritz proposed raising that cap to 25 percent, meaning one-fourth of a building’s
units could be used for Airbnb or
similar operations. That means

That’s the

Burgess Everett,
who posted a story on

defeat of legislation authorizing the Keystone XL Pipeline Project was their first

liberal Democrats will challenge Republicans on environmental issues more than
others next year, including
campaign finance law, consumer protections and women’s health care.
“I will use whatever tools

much as early polls showed
Kitzhaber ahead, but his
49.89-to-44.13 percent victory
is still respectable.
And there’s not much to
suggest that disillusioned Kitzhaber
supporters boycotted the
race or voted
for third-party
candidates. A
total of 1.53 million
Oregonians voted in
the general election. Almost all of them, 1.47 million,
voted in the governor’s race.
That’s more than the 1.46
million who voted in the hotly-contested U.S. Senate race
between Merkley and Republican Monica Wehby.
And only 5.98 percent of
voters cast their ballot for a
third-party candidate or
wrote in another name. Pacific Green Party candidate
Jason Levin got the most
votes, but it was still only 2
percent of the total.
SOURCESSAY
Hayes scandal
didn’t sway voters
When the negative news
stories about Gov. John
Kitzhaber’s fiancé, Cylvia
Hayes, broke before the general election, political insiders wondered how much the
revelations would hurt
Kitzhaber’s re-election
chances. The answer
seemed to be, not at all.
According to the final unofficial results, Kitzhaber defeated Republican challenger
Dennis Richardson by a larger margin than Kitzhaber defeated Chris Dudley in 2010
— 5.76 percent compared to
1.53 percent. That’s not as
Richardson may be
laying groundwork
Not only did Kitzhaber increase his margin of victory
over four years ago, he beat
Richardson with money to
spare.
According to the most recent filings, the Kitzhaber
campaign still had more than
$171,000 in the bank. Kitzhaber has said he won’t run for
re-election again after winning an unprecedented
fourth term in office. That
means he’ll probably donate
the surplus to other Democratic candidates and liberal
causes over the next four
years, something that could
help grease the skids for his
legislative agenda.
Perhaps surprisingly,
Richardson, a Southern Oregon legislator, also ended
his campaign with more
than $131,000 in the bank.
Although that’s probably
not enough to have closed
the gap on Election Day, it
raises the question of
whether he already was
thinking about running for
another office in two or four
years.

being rezoned as CM2, one of
the four new mixed-use zones
under consideration. That
would limit building height to 35
feet — 10 feet less than the current zoning. However, the concept allows an additional 20 feet
of height to achieve such goals
as affordable housing, affordable commercial space, historic
preservation, high-performance
green features, and such community benefits as grocery
stores, day care, publicly accessible outdoor space, and artistic
and cultural facilities.
“The mixed-use concepts are
far from having complete adopted details for citizens and
neighborhoods to determine
their total impact,” Peterson
says.
The PSC, so far, has resisted
postponing the votes. Officials
with the Bureau of Planning
and Sustainability, who drafted
the comp plan update and new
mixed-use zones, say state landuse planning policies require
the city to approve the update
before adopting the zoning to
implement it.

Appeal in Francke
case again raises
corruption questions
By JIM REDDEN
The Tribune
Was Oregon Corrections
Director Michael Francke
killed by a conspiracy involving corrupt state prison
officials 25 years ago?
That question began swirling weeks after Francke was
found stabbed
to death outside the Corrections Department
headquarters
on Jan. 17,
1989.
The federal
appeal recentFRANCKE
ly filed on behalf of Frank
Gable — the only person convicted in the death — does not
claim there was such a conspiracy, but it helps explain why
the conspiracy theories have
persisted for so long.
Among other things,
Francke was scheduled to testify before the state Senate Judiciary Committee the day after he was killed. An appendix
to the appeal filed by the Federal Public Defender’s Office
includes a photograph of the
list of topics Francke intended
to discuss. They were written
on a large sheet of paper on
display in his office.
The final line refers to a fire
in the A-Shed storage building
used by Prison Industries, part
of the Oregon State Penitenitary — a fire that investigators
subsequently determined was
used to defraud the department’s insurance company out
of $1.7 million.
The appeal documents show
that the A-Shed fire is just one
of several examples of wrongdoing within the department
that Francke was looking into
at the time of his death. Others
include prison officials who
kept their jobs after being accused of corruption during an
Oregon State Police investigation into the penitentiary system before Francke was hired
in May 1987. Francke was following up on the investigation
when he was killed.
The appeal filed in mid-October says Gable was denied a
fair trial in part because his
lawyers were prevented from
presenting alternative murder
theories. Gable, who always
has maintained his innocence,
was convicted of murder in
May 1991 and sentenced to life
without parole.
The appeal requests that
Gable either be granted a new
trial or be made eligible for parole. The Oregon Department

kindergarten in all districts, and
for extra help so that 95 percent
of third-grade students will read
at that level or better in five
years.
“It targets more than $400 million to where it really counts,”
Kitzhaber said during his presentation.
Since Oregon voters limited local property taxes in the 1990s,
school operating costs have shifted to the state budget. But since
Kitzhaber returned as governor
in 2010, after a previous eightyear stint, the Democratic chief
executive says it’s time for the
state to measure what it is getting for its spending.
“The state’s role in education
has got to change from that of
simply a passive funder, based on
enrollment, to active strategic
investment in outcomes,” he
says. “That’s exactly what this
budget seeks to do.”
His budget also proposes more
money for other goals he outlined three weeks ago at a meeting of the Oregon Education Investment Board, which he leads
and which oversees all education
spending.
Among them are progress toward improved graduation rates
from high school and college,
particularly those whose first
language is not English, and
transition from education to
work.
The two-year goals are a 5 percentage point increase in the
high school graduation rate,
which was 69 percent in 2013, and
a 2.5 percentage point increase in
college completion.
Kitzhaber says he would like
to find $50 million more to help
state universities, in addition to
the $626 million in his budget.
After Kitzhaber’s presentation, the presidents of the seven
state universities called on lawmakers to restore direct state
support to 2007 levels, before the
economic downturn forced cuts.
A similar statement was issued by Andrea Henderson, director of the Oregon Community College Association, who
says the 17 community colleges
would like $50 million more
than the budget request of $500
million.
What happens next
As he starts his fourth nonconsecutive term, Kitzhaber submitted his proposed budget by the
legal deadline. It goes to lawmakers, who approve a series of
agency budgets under a framework, rather than a single budget
bill.
That framework is known as
the “co-chairs’ budget,” because
it is devised by the House and
Senate leaders of the Legislature’s joint budget committee.
Senate President Peter Courtney,
D-Salem, says he has asked them
to come up with a preliminary
recommendation after the 2015
session opens Jan. 12.
Though Kitzhaber based his
budget on the economic and revenue forecast presented Nov. 13,
lawmakers have two more forecasts — including the key one on
May 15 — before they make final
decisions on the 2015-17 budget.
Other changes
Kitzhaber says his proposed
budget also contains items to
help people who have not
shared in Oregon’s economic
recovery:
в– A new Working Family Addition credit, which is subtracted
from taxes owed, to enable people
making between the minimum
wage of $9.10 per hour and $17.10
per hour keep more of their money. The credit would be in addition to the state’s expanded
earned-income tax credit, which
went up from 6 to 8 percent of the
federal credit this past year.
в– A $55 million expansion of
Employment-Related Day Care,
subsidized by the state, from
just under 8,000 slots to more
than 9,000. This expansion is in
addition to continuation of related tax credits that otherwise
would expire at the end of 2015.
в– About $100 million from
bonds, matched by community
and private sources, to provide
more housing for homeless families.
в– Rural development projects amounting to more than
$200 million, including $50 million for water infrastructure,
expanded research for wood
products markets, and regional
priorities.

Planning for Portland’s future
s the Portland area destined for a
dense future in the pattern of San
Francisco and Vancouver, B.C.? Or
should the region’s development
follow a more traditional model, with a
mixture of suburban subdivisions and
urban dwellings?
A great deal of groundwork is being
done right now to plan for metropolitan
Portland’s mid- and long-term future,
and most of that work points toward a
boom in apartments, condos and
transit corridors.
We don’t object to
the idea that the region should be cautious about expanding around its edges,
but we fear the vast majority of residents are paying scant attention to longterm plans being made.
Yet, when that future arrives, many of
those residents may not like what they
see.
Today (Thursday, Dec. 4), the Metro
Council will consider a document called
the “Urban Growth Report,” which will
help guide the council’s decision about
whether the region has enough land already within its urban growth boundary to satisfy development needs for the
next 20 years. It’s likely the council will
accept the report and set the stage for a
2015 decision not to expand the UGB.

We agree there’s no immediate necessity for a large UGB expansion. Because
the Great Recession slowed home building and other growth substantially, the
region still has land capacity from previous UGB expansions. However, construction has resumed in some areas —
including in Hillsboro, Happy Valley and
Gresham — and the land supply could
yet be pinched in the next two decades.
The larger issue, however, is the vision that underlies the Urban Growth
Report. This document foresees a future
of dense development that goes well beyond the infill construction already
causing a backlash in Portland. The report says cities within the region can accommodate all predicted residential
growth during the next 20 years by increasing density. More than 60 percent
of the housing needed in the entire region would be absorbed by Portland —
almost entirely through multi-family
buildings.
Metro’s assumptions about Portland’s
growth mirror the work being done by
city staff on the next version of a comprehensive plan, which will be adopted
next year. In both places — the city and
Metro — the focus is on high-density development.
The emphasis on density isn’t surprising, given the desire to preserve farm
and forest land outside the UGB, but it
does raise an obvious question: Is this
what residents of the region really
want?
The answer is not at all clear-cut. A
well-designed survey on people’s
housing preferences recently revealed
that most Portland-area residents —
including young people — would prefer to live in single-family detached
homes. This runs counter to the notion that younger people are clamoring solely for apartments next to a
streetcar line.
At the same time, as reported in
Tuesday’s Portland Tribune, academic
research done by a real estate expert
at Portland State University raises legitimate questions about the cost of a
high-density housing strategy. Gerard
C.S. Mildner, academic director of
PSU’s Center for Real Estate, produced a study, “Density at Any Costs,”
that examines the Metro Regional
Growth Report. He concludes that reversing the housing mix in the Portland area — with most new housing
becoming multi-family — would drive
up home costs and force local governments to spend billions of dollars for
infrastructure.
Metro officials dismiss the professor
as an anti-planning activist, but we
think his study raises serious concerns that ought to be addressed. His
prediction that Portland would become the fourth most expensive city in
the nation is troubling even if he is only half right, considering that salaries
in the region still lag.
These issues of density and cost need
greater public awareness and discussion. Suburban cities also must consider whether their futures should be determined by Portland’s apparent appetite for high-rise housing. Because the
urban growth report looks at the region’s land needs as a whole, when
Portland says it can provide 60 percent
of the entire metro area’s housing units
for the next 20 years, that means other
cities should expect less.
The Metro council’s acceptance of
the Urban Growth Report today
should not be viewed as the final word
on the region’s growth plans. Rather,
it should be a starting point for a more
well-rounded discussion over the next
five years, when Metro will have to
look again at the 20-year land supply.
More immediately, residents of Portland should take notice of the city’s
draft comprehensive plan. Its vision is
consistent with Metro’s — and if people hope to influence that outcome,
the time to get involved is now.
READERS’LETTERS
Fallout from new pot law on the horizon
A
s a member of the baby boomer generation, I must admit I’ve
never smoked mari-
juana.
When this marijuana measure first came before Oregonians to legalize this drug, it
was quite vague. The focus was
to help people needing it primarily for medical purposes
— so they said.
While some voters envision
this simply as an opportunity
to smoke pot legally, I foresee
many problems ranging from
(a) people growing pot and selling it on the open market to (b)
people allowing their underage
children and their friends to
smoke it, too, and more!
The night before the election,
I heard a news story about a
man who smokes pot daily, and
he got into an accident driving
and people were seriously injured. I think that’s only the beginning. Alcohol consumption
has been responsible for numerous accidents and deaths
over the years. Marijuana will
triple those figures. Driving fatalities are only part of the picture.
I’m a grandmother. I have
concerns and fears about how
this will impact our society.
While I heard judges being
vocal about passage of this
measure to make their job
easier, I anticipate it will have
the opposite effect.
There are caveats with
Measure 91. Unlike the Bob
Dylan song (“Rainy Day Women #12 and #35”), where he
sings, “everybody must get
stoned,” we need to think:
how will this measure impact
our schools and societal
norms? Is legalizing pot the
answer?

Street tax proposal no longer about fixing streets
MY VIEW
B y A ndy Frazier
S
omething strange has
happened. Somewhere
along the way in the
conversation about the
city’s tax proposal, we lost sight
of the problem: the need to fix
our streets.
I am a Portland small business owner and chair-emeritus
of the city’s Small Business Advisory Council. I am also a
Portland resident, voter and father of two public school children. My kids walk to school almost every day. My employees,
customers and partners rely on
the transportation system to
get to work and conduct business. I don’t disagree with the
premise that some new revenue may be needed to ensure
well-maintained, safe streets,
so it’s beyond me why the city
keeps wasting public time and
resources fighting over creation of a brand new citywide
personal income tax. Especially when there are plenty
of other already established
alternatives.
Portland has never before
had a personal income tax, and
adding one now would be a burden on residents and small
TRIBUNE FILE PHOTO
Amidst all the talk of whether the city should enact an income tax, people seem to have lost sight of the fact
that Portland’s streets need to be fi xed, writes Andy Frazier.
businesses. According to the
city’s current plan, this tax
would have no end, could be expanded or extended, and could
end up funding anyone’s guess
of future projects. Pile on the
fact that employees on public
pensions — including every
member of Portland City Council when they retire — won’t
pay a dime, while those collecting private retirement will, and
I stand appalled. Do retired
public employees not use the
transportation system?
But what really galls me as a
member of the community is
that Mayor Hales and Commissioner Novick refuse to put this
issue on the ballot for a vote.
Whether you agree with the
proposal or not, I believe the
people of Portland ought to
have a say about a brand new
tax structure.
A recent poll among Portland-area voters, coordinated
by the Portland Business Alliance (of which I am a member),
showed us that 75 percent of
Portland voters are aware of
the income tax discussion and
77 percent believe this thing
should go to a vote. Clearly I’m
not alone.
So, Mayor Hales and Commissioner Novick, let’s get this
conversation refocused on the
real issue of fixing streets.
This fight over a new income
tax structure wastes time,
drains energy and detracts
from other civic issues that
need attention. It’s time for everyone to get back to work and
start focusing on the problem
we all agree we need to solve:
fixing our streets.

“The people down in L.A.
might have an interest in him,
too, so that might complicate
things,” Horner said. “So I really don’t know what’s going to
happen or how quickly it’s going to happen in this case.”
Typically, Horner said,
Clackamas County would send
documents to confirm their interest in the person and help
identify the suspect. He added
that the county would not send
an attorney.
“They’ve got people down
there who are more than capable of handling it,” he said.
Horner said it is too early to
tell how the legal process will
shape up, as White is still in the
hospital with injuries related to
his arrest.
Plan: Four new zones to replace existing ones
в– From page 4
in mid-November. They are intended to allow different levels
of density depending on the
size and locations of various
designated centers and transportation corridors within the
city. Smaller centers and corridors would have the least density. Large centers and major
corridors would have the most
density.
One new zone, called mixeduse dispersed or commercial
mixed use 1, is intended for lowdensity neighborhoods. Generally, it would limit building
heights to three stories. From
there, the heights would increase in the new zones called
mixed-use neighborhood (CM2),
mixed-use civic corridor (CM3),
and mixed-use urban center
(CM4).
Buildings in all four zones
would have setbacks and “step
down” requirements to transition them into less-dense adjacent neighborhoods, such as
blocks of single-family houses.
The four new zones are intended to replace seven existing
zones that have been approved
during the past 20 years.

mixed-use zone concepts, visit:

Kahut passed away peacefully
on November 22. Millie was
born August 12, 1926 in
Portland, Oregon. She was
the only child of parents,
Otta and Maggie Fink. At

Grade School and graduated Canby High School in
1944. The day after high school graduation, Millie went
to work for the Clackamas County Assessor’s Office,
where she worked for over 30 years.
Walt and Millie built their lifetime home in Jennings
Lodge, Oregon in 1952, where they lived for over 60
years. Walt and Millie made many wonderful friendships
through Willamette Valley Country Club, where they
were charter members, and through Clackamas County
work associates, Oregon City Elks dinners and parties,
and their River Drive neighborhood. Walt passed away
in July, 2013.
A celebration of Millie’s life will be held at 2:00 p.m.

Donald (Don) Jensen
May 26, 1942 – November 24, 2014
Donald Dee Jensen passed away
and went peacefully to be with his
Lord and Savior on Monday, November 24, 2014.
Donald Dee Jensen was born in Pasadena,
California, on May 26, 1942 to Oliver Paul Jensen
and Hazel Ruth (Nichols) Jensen. He lived the first
62 years of his life in various cities in southern California and spent the last 17 years in California as a
Rowland Unified School District bus driver. He was
loved by his co-workers and the students that he
drove to school, field trips and sports. He learned to
shoot fireworks in his 30s and operated shows all
across the United States for many years and from
1993 to 2006 was a Pyro technician for Disneyland.
Don loved anything that went boom or vroom and he
truly loved fireworks, ending his many years of
shows by putting on a fireworks display for his
church in June of 2013 and 2104 that was truly amazing!
In 2004, Don retired and moved with his wife
Rosa (Smith) Jensen to Dundee, Oregon. He loved
the area, the trees, neighbors, friends and his church
Northside Community Church, serving over the
years in many areas of servant evangelism, bible
studies and men’s groups.
He loved old cars, fishing and camping but most
of all he loved serving others. He had an uncanny
ability to see the needs of others and tried to do whatever he could to help those in need, most of this very
quietly.
He was preceded in death by his parents Oliver
and Hazel Jensen and his brother Richard Fred
Jensen. Surviving to honor him are his previous wife
Carolyn (Sims) Jensen; his wife of 21 years, Rosa
(Smith) Jensen; brothers, David Jensen and
Lawrence (Carolie) Jensen; sister Patricia (Ken)
French; his beloved daughters Cindy Eastman (Ron
Heisler) and Julie (Walter) Hoffman; grandson Eric
Hoffman and granddaughter Kelsey Hoffman; step
sons, Jack Finley, David Van Etten and Christopher
Van Etten; brothers- and sisters-in-law, aunts, uncles,
cousins and nieces, along with those who have come
to know him and love him.
A Celebration of Life Service will be held on Saturday, December 6, at 1:00 p.m. at Northside Community Church, 1800 Hoskins Street, Newberg,
Oregon.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to
Northside Community Church food ministry, Northside Christmas offering or Love in the Name of
Christ (Love INC.) Newberg, Oregon.

Betty Ash Hearne, age
97, went to be with the Lord
on Sunday, Nov. 30, 2014. A
memorial service will be held
at 1 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 6,
2014 at River West Church,
2000 Country Club Road
Lake Oswego, Ore., 97034.
Betty was born Sept. 13,
1917 to Russell and Della Ash
in Boise, Idaho. She had two
younger sisters, Kay and Jean.
She attended Boise schools and graduated from Boise
High School in 1937. She graduated from the University
of Idaho in 1940 and, after her marriage to George
Thorne in 1943, she moved to North Carolina where
she resided until 1964 when she returned to Boise to
teach English at Borah High School until her retirement
in 1982.
She was a life-long member of the PEO sisterhood
and was also a Delta Gamma. She was an officer in both
organizations and helped with their charitable projects.
Spending time with her family and grandchildren
was always a highlight for Betty. She made weekly
Saturday phone calls to talk with them and enjoyed
attending their sporting events, joining in on family
vacations and having them come for summer visits.
In 1991, Betty married her high school sweetheart,
John Hearne. During their almost 18 years of marriage,
they enjoyed traveling in the United States, Asia and
Europe together as well as playing golf and bridge.
Betty and John were volunteers for many years at St.
Alphonsus Hospital and at the Boise Tourist Information
Center. They were active members at the Cathedral of
the Rockies, in Boise.
Following John’s death in 2009, Betty moved to
Lake Oswego to be near her daughter, Kathy and her
husband Jim. She said that moving to The Springs at
Carman Oaks was like going to college. It was a time
to make new friends and begin a new phase of her life,
which she did with her usual positive attitude and strong
will to make the best of all the situations life brought
her way.
Church, Skip-Bo games, bridge, reading,
crossword puzzles and family gatherings were enjoyed
on a regular basis during this time of her life.
Surviving Betty are her daughter, Kathy Snodgrass
(Jim), Lake Oswego; and step-children Richard Hearne
(Carole), McCall, Idaho; Janet Hayes, Boise, Idaho;
Bryan Hearne (Jarie), Boise; Daniel Hearne (Becky),
McCall; grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nieces and
nephews.
The family would like to thank the staff at Lake
Oswego Comfort Living for the loving care and respect
they gave our mother.
In lieu of flowers, memorials can be made to the
Legacy Fund at the Cathedral of the Rockies, 717 N.
11th Street, Boise, Idaho 83702 or to a charity of your
choice.
Family and friends will certainly miss Betty and
the impact she had on our lives. She was a wonderful
mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and friend to
us all.

Carol Kay Wendling, 72, of Dayton,
passed away on Wednesday, November
19, 2014. She was born in Seattle, Washington, to Louella E. and James C. Loveless on December 17, 1941.
She attended Seattle area schools and at the age
of 15 she began working in the family restaurant
business. On February 28, 1965, she married
Robert Wendling, and together owned and operated
Grandma Cummings Candy, Simple Simon’s Sandwich Shop and the Horsetrader, a freight and resale
store.
She loved spending time with family, and in her

Jr. (Gene) and wife Dawn, of Grand Ronde, Oregon, and Jeffrey Allen Wendling, of Dayton;
daughters Dorie Byrd and husband Tom, of Newberg, and Tammy Wendling, of Goldendale, Washington. She is also survived by her siblings, Donna

George (Bud) was born
on January 17, 1927, in
Portland, OR, to George
W. and Laura A. Mershon.
He died at peace on
November 23, 2014. He
was 87 years old, a
member of the “greatest
generation.” He grew up
during the deprivation of
the depression, farming
with his family in Corbett, OR, on land purchased by his
grandfather in the 1890s. He left high school and served
with the Merchant Marines in the latter part of World
War II. He enlisted in the US Army in 1945 and
volunteered to serve with the Airborne. He met his life
partner, Viola Mershon (nГ©e Heard), at a dance in
Portland, OR. They were married in October of 1949,
and moved to Corbett in 1957, where they raised four
children together. He is survived by those children,
seven grandchildren, three great grandchildren, and his
sister, Laura.
Bud was well liked by everyone who met him. He
was a natural salesman. He worked for Woodbury &
Company, Standard Steel, and Metra Steel, and was
successful as both a salesman and an inside sales
manager. But, above all else, Bud’s roots ran deep in the
Corbett soil. He and Viola purchased the Corbett
Hardware Store in 1967 and they ran it until 1990. He
and his son, Jeff, established Mershon Farms in 1990 and
it is still in operation today. He was always very involved
in community activities and was a strong supporter of
Corbett schools. Through the years, he was a member of
the Kiwanis club, served on the water district board of
directors, and regularly attended East Multnomah
County Pioneer Association meetings.
Bud was always happiest outdoors and loved to
camp, ride horses, hunt and fish. He was a great story
teller, entertaining and funny. He was a ruthless pinochle
player. He was also an enthusiastic sports fan, especially
of college football and basketball. He loved listening to
and playing old-time country music; he was mostly selftaught on the fiddle, guitar, and mandolin. A couple of
his favorite songs were the “Big Rock Candy Mountain”
and “Abdul Abulbul Amir,” which he would play and
sing for family and friends. His biggest regret was not
having more music lessons as a child, but like for so
many of the “greatest generation,” other needs came
first. Bud was a loving and dedicated husband and father,
and he will be greatly missed.
A private service will be held at a later date.

But what if I told you I can solve almost any

throat.
Even the simple act of going to the
bathroom is a nightmare. You strain and
strain, but just can’t go. And become so
constipated that the pain doubles you
over so you can’t breathe. It’s a real mess!
If this sounds like you, you’re not
alone. Millions suffer right along with
you. That’s why I’m writing to you today.
497015.120414
I’VE DISCOVERED A
SOLUTION TO BEAT
ALMOST ANY DIGESTION
PROBLEM… INSTANTLY!
And it’s not only simple; you may never
experience another digestion episode
again! (More on that in a minute)…
PrilosecВ®, PrevacidВ®, PepcidВ® and
Nexium®: Are They Worth The Risk? It’s
true that NexiumВ®, along with the other
�proton pump inhibitors like Prevacid®
and PrilosecВ® and Pepcid can give you
temporary relief, but at what cost?
The truth is, if taken for too long, these
drugs can cause serious problems. Most
people take them for years! If you do, you
may be asking
for big trouble!
HELP DIGESTIVE
ISSUES GO AWAY!
The secret is that AloeCureВ® is brimming
with malic-calcium, a powerful acid
blocker that quenches the awful burning
sensation in your throat, stomach, and
esophagus instantly. And keeps the
acid level balanced so your symptoms
disappear and don’t come back.
AloeCureВ®
also
contains
polysaccharides a �wonder’ compound
that gently costs the throat, esophagus
and stomach, delivering instant relief to
cells scorched by excess acid.
What’s more, it contains vitamins,
minerals, and amino acids that п¬Ѓght the
inflammation and help heal your body, not
just after a meal, but all the time. So you
get relief you can count on, day after day.
Most impressively, AloeCureВ® clears
out your gastrointestinal tract. It opens
a pathway for your unwanted waste so it
moves thoroughly through your digestive
system as it should.
"Antacids can cause brittle bones, hip
and wrist fractures and a damaged spine."
Like thousands
of others, you
could end up
with brittle bones, hip and wrist fractures
and a damaged spine. Plus put you at
risk for nasty infections that can land
you in the hospital for weeks. And it’s
especially true if you’re over age 50
years old!
A “HIDDEN” DANGER
MOST DOCTORS DON’T
EVEN LOOK FOR!
These drugs can cause dangerous
inflammation, often called the �secret
killer’ because doctors don’t even check
for it. But left alone, it can be catastrophic.
Inflammation starts by eating away the
lining of your stomach. Then, begin to eat
away at all your major organs, leading to
heart troubles, elevated blood sugar, thin
arteries, and even affect nerve cells in
your brain.
The Bottom Line: Digestion drugs
can bring about serious issues with your
entire digestive system! And if you don’t
do something about it now, your problems
are just beginning!
MY PATIENTS ARE
THRILLED WITH

The city of Gresham and
Multnomah County say they
are ushering in a new era of
cooperation with a joint federal application for a Promise
Zone designation in the Rockwood neighborhood.
At a press conference to announce the Nov. 21 application,
Mayor Shane Bemis said the new
status “would obviously not solve
every problem, but it could align
federal resources with direct local needs.”
The program, launched by the
Obama Administration in January, gives communities assistance
with applications to federal grants
programs in 35 different areas.
The application for the area
that has often been underserved
required the cooperation of 24 organizations.
Multnomah County Chairwoman Deborah Kafoury said
the area east of Portland and
west of downtown Gresham
has a complex jurisdictional
arrangement.
“It’s kind of been nobody’s responsibility. But we’re kind of
saying: �No, it’s everybody’s responsibility,’” Kafoury said.
“Through this process we made a
commitment to each other and to
the residents of Rockwood.”
Bemis said this new sense of
cooperation is critical as gentrification continues in inner cities,
like Portland.
“For the first time in American
history, poverty is moving to the suburbs all across the country,” he said.
First in the state
President Barack Obama announced the Promise Zones
Initiative in his 2013 State of
the Union address. The first
round of five urban communities awarded with the designation were in San Antonio, Philadelphia, Los Angeles, southeastern Kentucky and the
Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma.
Multnomah County Senior
Grants Coordinator Sheri Campbell said she is highly confident
this is the only application for
such a zone in Oregon. The application will have to win one of six

Washington County Jail’s

Drinking chocolate, bitters: How sweet it is

By JENNIFER ANDERSON
The Tribune
Could drinking chocolate
with bitters be Portland’s next
hip beverage?
Mark Bitterman hopes so. Or
at least that Portlanders will be
brave enough to give it a try this
holiday season.
The James Beard Award winner for his 2010 book “Salted”
has opened Madrid ChocolaterГ­a,

The Meadow’s Northwest Portland location, 805 N.W. 23rd Ave.
It features Woodblock Chocolate, made in Southeast Portland

and his wife, Jessica. The 70-percent dark cacao is transformed
into drinking form by adding a

“Bitters are to a drink what

There are four suggested

“People think chocolate’s bitter, but good chocolate doesn’t

He sells his book in a bundle

The shop has been an easy
concept in Portland, he says,
where people love the underpinnings of making things.
New Yorkers, he says, love the
finished product.
“They just want the solution;
�Tell me the solution, I’m done,’ ”
he says. “In Portland, it’s �No,
what if I did that? How does this
work? Can I do this at home?’ ”
“Portlanders are very earnestly interested in things,” he adds.
“We’re like hippie hands-on

We knew fine artisan chocolate was pricey, but
Portland’s Woodblock
Chocolate is breaking new
ground with this one.
The four-year-old Southeast
Portland outfit this month
released a $100 holiday
chocolate bar — made from
2,400 types of cacao beans
— to benefit charity.
The bar is called Trinidad
Fundare, and only 65 pounds
have been produced.
It’s a collaboration with the
Cocoa Research Center at the
University of the West Indies in
St. Augustine, Trinidad, where
co-owner Charley Wheelock
travels to source cacao beans
for some of his bars.
This bar, a blend of cacao
from Ecuador and Peru, represents the efforts of the
International Cocoa
Genebank, a conservation
and research facility consisting of 16 cocoa trees per plot
within about 100 acres.
All proceeds from the sale
of the Trinidad Fundare bar
will go to the maintenance of
the Genebank’s living library
of cacao, with one of the most
diverse collections of cacao
varietals in the world.
Woodblock was one of the
first and only U.S. chocolate
makers to use cacao from the
Gran Couva region of Trinidad.
Woodblock imports its own
beans, then roasts, conches,
ages and tempers the cacao
on-site.
Six varieties of the .88ounce 70-percent cacao bars
are sold for $4 each or in a
10-pack for $45 online. The
holiday bars are sold at
Woodblock Chocolate, 1236
S.E. Oak St.; online or at various retail locations.

Los Angeles. Hutch Harris, the
group’s lead guitarist, will later tell
me the Red Bull shows were “great

“They were run very professionally, and we were paid well,” he says.
He also says he’s just fine with any
band that gets a company like Red
Bull on its side.
“I wouldn’t judge any band that
was sponsored by Red Bull,” he says.
“I would judge them if they suck.”
Model rock ers
Lowell takes the stage at The Well
and immediately draws attention. A
singer-songwriter-producer who creates socially conscious electro-pop,
she comes out in a pink hoodie, taking it off after a few songs to move
about in a fishnet dress. She reminds
me of Bjork a bit, putting down
dance-poppy beats and singing melody lines that move over her arrangements like wind chimes in a breeze.
Next up is Tapioca and the Flea,
who play disco-flavored synth-pop
rock. Sonically rooted in �80s groups
like OMD and New Order, the band is
fronted by the emotive Samuel Jacob
Lopez Jr. I shake his hand after the
show and tell him to get his band up
to Portland soon.
Finally, headliners Dum Dum Girls
take the stage. Four women who look
like models and a guy in what looks
like a man-skirt, they play with assertion, rolling out tunes from “Too
True,” their latest record, to some of
their older stuff. The crowd gives a
whoop when they play their bestknown tune, the Pretenders-like
“Bedroom Eyes.” I dig their dreamy,
somewhat shoegazer pop-rock, and
the crowd does as well.
The quintet encores with a cover of

me that the British Army used “dum

She nods politely and says, “I was

TRIBUNE
By JENNIFER ANDERSON
The Tribune
A couple of years ago, Portland’s food carts — beloved
by hipsters, downtown business people, neighborhood
folks and tourists alike —
offered strictly PG fare.
Now, they’re all grown up.
Nearly a third of the city’s
food cart pods now serve
beer,
wine or cocktails.
Thirteen of the 36 food
cart
pods citywide have in the
past
two years sought and received
liquor licenses from the Oregon
Liquor Control Commission.

Beer and bao
become modern
classic at BTU
TRIBUNE PHOTOS: V IRGINIA WERNER ( ABOVE ) , JENNIFER ANDERSON ( RIGHT)
BTU opened three months ago in the Hollywood district, pairing small plates of modern
Chinese food with small- batch beers. Ask for the chili sauce to k ick up the spice.
в– Hybrid Chinese eatery, brewpub breaks stereotypes
By JENNIFER ANDERSON
The Tribune
I
grew up eating Chinese
food in Hawaii — sometimes family-style at
white-tablecloth restaurants with a dozen plates on
the table, other times at my
kitchen table in Styrofoam
containers with a few fortune
cookies.
Either way,
we always devoured the
food, full of
sweet, sour
and spicy sauces and crisp
and soft textures that all
inevitably
mixed together
on the plate until we could
mix and eat no
more.
That’s what I consider authentic Chinese, and anyone
who’s eaten on Southeast 82nd
Avenue would agree.
BTU Brasserie, the threemonth-old Chinese restaurantbrewpub on Northeast Sandy
Boulevard, is not that experience, but a decidedly Portland
hipster-ish version of it. The
small-batch beer is smooth and
crisp, brewed specifically to
complement the rich fl avors of
the small plates.
BTU (named for the British
Thermal U nit) is the brainchild of friends Chris Bogart
and Nate Y ovu, who worked at
Burnside Brewing together as
sous chef and head chef, respectively.
Bogart is BTU ’s head chef,
having learned the art of Chinese cooking from his dad,
Steve Bogart, founder of the acclaimed Chinese restaurant A
Single Pebble in V ermont.
The two wanted to open a
neighborhood hangout in Portland celebrating Chinese food
and good beer.
It would be
one thing to
just show up
with a gimmick, boosted
by a $15 ,000
K ickstarter
campaign to
create buzz.
But three
months after
launching,
BTU ’s solid offerings have
proven they’re
here to represent, landing last
month on Thrillist’s “Best New
Bars of 2014” list.
Their seven-barrel system
with a steam-fired, turnkey
brewery, built by Portland K ettle Works, pumps out five house
brews: a wheat, red, blonde, lager and German black ale,
ranging from 5 .4 percent to 5 .8
percent alcohol by volume.
Each is smooth and full-bodied, neutral and not overpoweringly hoppy, refreshing for a
Portland pub, and the better to
eat Chinese food with.
There are many exquisite
dishes on the menu, but others
aren’t fully developed. The bbq
Bread&Brew
Biweekly food and drink
news and reviews
platter, $5 , is one of three cold
dishes that get the palate ready
for the fl avors to come.
The dish includes a few slices
each of house-smoked Chinese
pork — the standout — as well
as chicken in a white barbecue
sauce, which was in need of
more sauce.
The mystery on the plate is
the beef tendon in mala sauce,
which tastes like a gummy
noodle covered in oil.
The half-dozen small plates,
$7 each, also are just warmups for the main events. The
chanterelle mushroom dumpling is wrapped in a “crystal”
dough, chewy with a bland
mix of mushroom, tofu and
peanuts, paired with a tangy
red vinegar dipping sauce.
Go instead for the bao, $7
for an order of three magically
springy dumplings with either
smoked duck, pork belly or
smoked tofu. The pork belly is,
by far, the star, smoky and
decadent without being too
fatty.
The bao are presented in a
fun, assemble-your-own style
with separate components: tiny open-faced bun, pickled cucumber, meat and hoisin
sauce. The bun is outsourced
for now, while the owners try
to achieve the perfect sugarto-yeast ratio that produces
the pillowy TempurPedic-like
texture.
The four hearty noodle dishes, $12, are where BTU starts
to prove its real talent. The xo
lai fun is a bowl full of housemade noodles, thick as a pin-
BTU Brasserie

971-407-3429
btupdx.com
ky, mixed with a melange of
crisp veggies, shrimp and scallops cooked just right, and a
Chinese sausage that was
barely detectable.
The xo sauce has a little
kick, but if you want things
spicy, ask for the house-made
chile sauce. Smoky with just
the right amount of kick, it’s
surprising the sauce isn’t on
every table. In fact, there are
no condiments on the table,
just white cloth napkins and
chopstick holders. It’s much
too nice for cheap disposable
chopsticks.
The wok-tossed dishes, $14,
are creative takes on classic
dishes, with flash-seared beef,
chicken, lamb and walnuts
paired with veggies, served
over white jasmine rice rather
than traditional Asian sticky
rice.
Most dishes are vegetarian
or gluten-free or can be made
so upon request.
From the festive, unpretentious feel to the tiny, sweet
sesame balls that come with
the bill, BTU produces a lot
of happy surprises.
Even without fortune cookies, BTU is on its way to being a true gem in Portland’s
crowded brewpub scene.
to the Ace Hotel for last call at
the rooftop bar.
Tonight the doormen warn
me not to go the 13th fl oor, which
reportedly has been commandeered by the cast, crew and other folks associated with “The
Hunger Games: Mockingjay
Part 1.”
What about the bar?
It’s open, they tell me.
I take the elevator to the rooftop, walk through the bar door
and am immediately stopped by
a security guard.
He tells me I can’t be here
since it’s a private party.
I tell him I was told I could be here.
Then one of the other security
guys says I might be able to go into
the adjoining bar.
I cool my heels and gaze around
at the Hollywood glitterati for about
five minutes or so. Then I learn the
bar allegedly open to me has just
closed.
“I’ll give you the money if you
just go get me a beer, and I can
take it back to my room,” I tell
one of the security guys.
“Sorry, sir,” he says. “I can’t do
that.”
I turn around to leave. One of the
security guys follows me out and
tries to comfort me.
“Y ou know, sir, 7-Eleven is
probably still open, and if you
get there in the next 10 minutes,
you could get beer.”
In the morning I learn that as
I snored away, Lady Gaga and
Jennifer Lopez apparently
showed up at the Ace. Betcha
they got beer.
� Spinal Tap’ meets
KISS meets � Apes’
My fourth night, Nov. 17, is
spent at the Electric Dusk DriveIn, an outdoor movie theater. I
go there to see the famous mockumentary “Spinal Tap” with
Laura Ferriero, yet another wonderfully polite publicist with Red
Bull Sound Select.
The highlight of the evening
is an intermission performance
by PPL MV R (pronounced “People Mover”), three guys in apelike Bigfoot costumes and two
guys in what looks like zookeeper gear. It’s very much K ISS
meets “Planet of the Apes.” I’m
shocked that the music is, well,
pretty freakin’ awesome, heavy
rock that actually swings a bit,
somewhat like early Black Sabbath, but with modern effects.
Between the movie and the
On Twitter @jenmomanderson
band, I’m in a decidedly great
mood and look forward to seeing Portland’s Pure Bathing Culture the next night.
However, the question still
nags — is this whole Red Bull
sponsorship thing good or bad
for rock � n’ roll?
I later ask the aforementioned Nansel what he thinks.
“I’m always skeptical of corporate sponsorship when it comes
to art,” he says. “I don’t have any
specific issue with how Red Bull
handled the events per se. I
mean, they got some great bands
on the bills, they worked with
some great venues, they created
incentives for getting people out
to the shows early, they did some
creative — and expensive —
marketing. From that perspective there were lots of positive
aspects to their approach.”
However, he says, he wonders, “Are these types of brandsponsored events sustainable? ”
He adds: “If fans ultimately
come to expect free food, free
gifts, cheap tickets and the artists come to expect big paydays,
then what happens to the traditional model? Are we creating a
false reality? What happens
when corporate interests no longer want to support musicians? ”
Good points all. Having seen
different types of corporate
sponsorship over the years at
music events, some tasteful,
some tacky, I understand Nansel’s concerns.
And at one time, I genuinely
scoffed at corporate sponsors in
music and shared a DIY rocker’s
aversion to them.
But then I dealt with some
shady club owners, promoters
and even fellow musicians who
tried to screw me even as they
paid lip service to punk ideals.
Meanwhile, some of the very
“bourgeois” people they decried
more often than not paid my
bands well and didn’t shaft us.
I ponder these thoughts as I
enjoy a delicious chocolate-chip
cookie from Red Bull. I stare at
my Red Bull bottle opener, unpack the ear plugs I won at a
Sound Select show, and wrap
myself in a Red Bull blanket I
got at the drive-in. And sleep in
the room for which Red Bull
paid.
I think I need to cut a demo
record for this company.

Saturday, Dec. 6
Eggers:
Beaverton
teen wins
golf award
donate between $250,000 and
$300,000 to charitable organizations from the 2014 event.
Maletis, incidentally, recently
was presented the 2014 LPGA
Patty Berg Award at the annual
year-end awards dinner at Naples, Fla., representative of the
individual who “exemplifies diplomacy, sportsmanship, goodwill and contributions to the
game of golf.”
The Berg award, which has
been given to the likes of Kathy
Whitworth, Nancy Lopez, Annika Sorenstam and Dinah Shore
over the years, is not an annual
honor but delivered only when
the circuit determines there is a
worthy recipient.
в– The second running of the
other major pro golf event in the
Portland area — the WinCo
Foods Open on the Web.com
Tour — also has its 2015 date finalized. The $800,000, 72-hole
men’s event will be Aug. 28-31 at
Pumpkin Ridge — the week before Oregon and Oregon State
open their football seasons.
Tournament director Jeff
Sanders recently announced a
$725,000 charitable contribution,
which he says is the secondhighest donation from a firstyear Web.com event.
“It’s a good start,” Sanders
says. “I’m really excited. We’ve
built some momentum in our
first year, and we’re going to get
bigger and better moving forward.”
в– Beaverton High senior Gigi
Stoll has landed another award,
becoming the Pacific Northwest
Golf Association women’s player
of the year for 2014. The honor
covers five states and two Canadian provinces and includes female players of any age. Stoll is
the third Oregon player to get
the award, joining Bend’s Kailin
Downs (2002) and Corvallis’ Kendall Prince (2013).

The Tribune
T he Oregon Ducks are
knocking on the door of the
first college football playoff,
1 1 -1 and winners of seven
consecutive games entering
the Pac-1 2 title game.
It begs the question: What if
Oregon’s November schedule
had been tougher?
Stanford didn’t end up being
the Stanford of the past two
years, Utah posed the biggest
threat but fumbled away — literally, by Kaelin Clay — an upset opportunity, and Colorado
and Oregon State finished as
the Pac-12’s two worst teams at
7-17 overall and 2-16 in league
play combined.
And, the Ducks didn’t have to
face Arizona State and USC this
year.
Still, the Ducks look good in
every phase heading into the
conference title matchup with
Arizona (10-2) at 6 p.m. Friday
at Levi’s Stadium at Santa
Clara, Calif.
Even having whipped the
Pac-12’s two doormats, the
Ducks know they have been
playing their best, and why?
“Just doing our best in our
game plans and executing to the
best of our abilities,” QB Marcus Mariota says. “Um, if we’re
able to score on every drive,
that’s really a goal of ours. For
us, it’s taking it one play at a
time and making that play the
best you can. The past couple
weeks I’m proud of the guys in
the locker room. We’ve got to
continue this momentum.”
It’s worth noting, again: Only
once in the past eight seasons
— 2010, the season UO played in
the national championship
game — have the Ducks not lost
at least one Pac-12 game after
Nov. 1. The Ducks lost twice in
November last season (Stanford, Arizona), to Stanford in
2012 and to USC in 2011. In all
three seasons, the losses derailed possible and even probable national championship
game consideration.
The Ducks lost November
games to Stanford in 2009, to
Cal in 2008 and to three oppo-

nents after Nov. 1 in 2007 and
2006.
в– The 2014 UO offense led the
Pac-12 in scoring (45.9 points per
game), total offense (539.5 yards)
and rushing offense (232 yards)
— the latter category for the
ninth season in a row.
Of course, Mariota led the
way, helped by true freshman
running back Royce Freeman
and receiver Byron Marshall —
last year’s 1,000-yard back — and
a bevy of receivers. The offense
overcame injuries up front.
In the Civil War game, running back Thomas Tyner, receiver Keanon Lowe and center
Hroniss Grasu all were sidelined, not to mention tight end
Pharaoh Brown, receiver
Bralon Addison and offensive
tackle Tyler Johnstone, all out
for the year.
The Ducks have looked crisp,
offensively, though.
“We’re really clicking on all
the cylinders,” Marshall says.
“Everyone’s coming out excited
to play. We try to execute and
play a perfect game. Make sure
we keep it rolling.”
в– The burly Freeman, from
Imperial Calif., led the Pac-12 in
touchdowns with 16 rushing
and one receiving — not to
mention a TD pass to Mariota
in, of all games, the Arizona
loss on Oct. 2.
Freeman has rushed for 1,185
yards on 209 carries (5.7 per carry), and he has caught 13 balls for
125 yards and another score.
He rivals Arizona’s Nick Wilson as, arguably, the best true
freshman running back in the
country. Wilson has 1,263 yards
rushing (6.2 per carry) and 12
receptions and 16 total TDs.
Both Freeman and Wilson
will both be front and center in
the Pac-12 title tilt.
Says Mariota, of Freeman:
“His play has said everything
about how he is as a person. He
came in and wanted to make an
impact. When you have that
mindset as a freshman, it really
elevates your game and how
well you can play. He’s played
awesome all year, he’s a force
for us. The ceiling’s so high for
that kid; he’s not even been in a
year of full strength and conditioning program of coach �Rad’
(Jim Radcliffe) yet, and he has
the opportunity to learn the offense even better.”
Freeman credits Gary Campbell, running backs coach, for
helping his development. “He
does a good job of keeping us
mentally focused and minds on
the little things,” Freeman says.
в– Addison blew out his knee
in spring ball, but the Ducks
haven’t missed him, thanks to
the emergence of Marshall at inside receiver and true freshman
Charles Nelson at receiver and
punt returner.
Marshall had 56 receptions for
791 yards and five scores during
the regular season, while adding
352 rushing yards (8 yards per
carry).
“I did not expect it to be like
this,” he says, of basically replacing Addison in the UO offense.
“When Bralon went down, it was
a huge loss for us. Luckily, I’ve
adapted to the position well
enough that there’s not a downfall there, which was huge. Everyone was worried about no Addison, no Addison, no Addison,

Hill: Late volleyball development an advantage
out in Colorado Springs, Colo., in
February 2013.
Hill showed up for the tryout
— along with 240 other players
— “kind of on a whim,” she says.
“My best friend (Lilla Frederick) played at Pepperdine, too,”
Hill says. “Her mom called us the
day before the tryout and said,
�You girls need to go.’ I said, �It’s
too late. No reason to go. We
won’t make the team.’ She said,
�Go for the experience.’ So we
booked a plane ticket at the last
minute. Thank goodness.”
Hill was the best player on the
Pepperdine team that won the
West Coast Conference championship and reached the NCAA
Elite Eight her senior season,
earning her first-team AllAmerica honors. And she was
part of the Waves’ two-woman
team that won the inaugural
NCAA sand volleyball title the
next year.
But she wasn’t a true big shot
on the national volleyball scene.
At Colorado Springs, it was
serendipity. Hill not only impressed, “she was the star of the
tryouts,” Kiraly told the media
afterward. “She was the MVP.
We’re thinking, �We have to get
her in the gym.’”
“I didn’t see myself as the star
of the show,” Hill says now. “I
actually felt I played terrible
the whole time.”
Hill was the only player
from the tryout session
whom Kiraly invited to return to Colorado Springs
for an extended twomonth tryout in May
and June.
Says Hill: “I
was thinking,
�If I’m there
for only a
couple of
months,
it’s
still
such a privilege — the coolest
experience ever. I’m going to enjoy whatever happens.’”
Hill not only made the team,
but by August, she was a starter. She started every match
through the World Grand Prix
season and was a key member
as the United States won the
Pan-American Cup in Lima,
Peru.
After returning from Poland
in April this year, Hill rejoined
the national team for a tournament in Switzerland, the
World Grand Prix season and
the four-match USA Volleyball
Cup series with Brazil. Then it
was on to Italy for the world
championships.
“We hadn’t made finals week
at the World Grand Prix,” Hill
says. “We played terribly, and
we were all frustrated and angry. We came back from that
fired up and practiced really
hard. We set a mission statement for ourselves, that we
wanted to do what no team had
done before. We wanted to win
gold. We were very confident
in.
going in.”
The American reached the
Oct. 12 finals,
where they knocked off China
3-1 in Milan to win the title. Hill
— who scored 20 points in the
gold-medal victory — was
named the MVP as well as second-best outside spiker.
“I was shocked, for sure,” Hill
says. “I couldn’t believe where
my life had led me so far. Looking at all the players I admire
and players I’d seen win MVP in
other tournaments ... oh my
gosh, it blew my mind.”
And that of her father, Bradd.
“It’s been unbelievable —
kind of a blur,” says the senior
Hill, retired after a career in
the insurance business. “Each
level of volleyball you go
through, you think she’s probably reached her peak. Then
she goes to the next level and
keeps accelerating.”
Hill’s modesty and deportment have made a good impression on those around her with

“She’s a great teammate,” Kiraly says. “Her teammates really like her. She has a light way
about her. She doesn’t get fazed
by the media. She’s doing a
great job for us.”
Hill grew up in Northeast
Portland, the youngest of four
daughters born to Bradd and
Terri Hill. All of the older sisters
— Shelby, 31; Caitlin, 29, and Kelsay, 27 — were volleyball and/or
basketball players who competed through the college level.
Growing up in that household
“was fun,” Kim says. “When I
was little, I was always being
dragged to my sisters’ matches,
but I loved it overall. I got exposed to a lot of stuff. We have a
very supportive family.”
“When Kim was little, she’d
be sitting in the bleachers, kind
of bored half the time,” her father says. “During her sisters’
high school basketball games,
she’d go out and shoot baskets
at halftime.”
Were the older sisters pretty
rough on her?
“Surprisingly, no,” Kim says.
The older sisters were rough

“For sure,” she says. “Not only
by getting to see higher levels,
but also getting opportunities
because people knew my sisters.
Also, my parents learned lessons in how to bring kids up
in the sports world. My sisters didn’t have near
the opportunities I
did.”
Hill played basketball and soccer
as a youth and
didn’t start volleyball until eighth
grade, when she
was already 6 feet
tall. She won a
state basketball
championship at
Portland Christian
and was Class 2A volleyball player of the year as a senior. But she got her first exposure to college scouts between
her sophomore and junior years,
when she played for the NIke
Northwest Junior Air Elite team
that won the 219-team National
Festival of Champions at Reno,
Nev.
“I didn’t play any national-level volleyball until then,” Hill
says. “I probably didn’t develop
as early as a lot of players, but it
was a huge advantage mentally
as well as in terms of physical
health. I wasn’t pushed to practice multiple times a day. I
played purely for the love of it. It
was totally fun.
“As I got to higher levels, I had
to learn what other players
learned when they were younger than me, but I wouldn’t have
had it any other way.”
Ranked by one service as the
No. 8 prospect in the country,
Hill was recruited by most of the
Pac-10 schools, “but I wanted to
go to a smaller school,” she says.
“The WCC isn’t quite as good as
the (Pac-12), but it’s still a high
level of volleyball. I had a lot of
fun during my time at Pepperdine.”
She stayed for a fifth year to
participate in sand volleyball,
coming away with a national
title.
“I trained on the beach that
