Chadwick 

announces 

retirement 

35-year career with 

district near<strong>in</strong>g close 

By LAURA MCCUTCHEON 


Ukiah Unified School District 

Super<strong>in</strong>tendent Ray Chadwick has 

announced he will retire <strong>in</strong> June. 

Chadwick’s educational career with the 

district began <strong>in</strong> 1972 when he took a 

teach<strong>in</strong>g job at Pomolita Middle School. 

From there he gradually worked his way up 

the educational ladder. He became an 

assistant pr<strong>in</strong>cipal at Ukiah High School, 

then the director of Cont<strong>in</strong>u<strong>in</strong>g and 

Alternative Education, and then the 

pr<strong>in</strong>cipal of Pomolita, dur<strong>in</strong>g which time 

the school earned a California 

Dist<strong>in</strong>guished School award. 

In 2000, Chadwick was promoted to 

UUSD assistant super<strong>in</strong>tendent, and lastly, 

<strong>in</strong> 2004, he was appo<strong>in</strong>ted super<strong>in</strong>tendent 

of the district. 

However, Chadwick’s first experience 

with the school district began <strong>in</strong> the third 

grade when his mother enrolled him <strong>in</strong> 

Frank Zeek Elementary School. After go<strong>in</strong>g 

through the local school system, he 

graduated from Ukiah High School <strong>in</strong> 1966 

and went away to college. He earned a 

bachelor’s degree <strong>in</strong> history from Sonoma 

State University and a master’s degree 

from the University of San Francisco. 

Asked why he chose a career <strong>in</strong> 

education, Chadwick said “I always wanted 

to be a history teacher. I actually received a 

scholarship <strong>in</strong> high school that was 

earmarked for a student who wanted to go 

<strong>in</strong>to teach<strong>in</strong>g. 

“I’ve enjoyed most all of it, but I had the 

most fun coach<strong>in</strong>g basketball for 15 years,” 

Chadwick said. 

The Mendoc<strong>in</strong>o County Office of 

Education has a special honor <strong>in</strong> store for 

Chadwick <strong>in</strong> advance of his retirement. 

“I have observed him and his heart and 

how he supports children and learn<strong>in</strong>g. I 

was very privileged to provide him with 

the honor the county board and I will 

bestow upon him <strong>in</strong> March,” MCOE 

Super<strong>in</strong>tendent Paul Tich<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong> said, referr<strong>in</strong>g 

to a proclamation honor<strong>in</strong>g Chadwick as 

Mendoc<strong>in</strong>o County Schoolmaster of the 

Year 2007. 

“People many times say that someone is 

Officer fell asleep while driv<strong>in</strong>g home after shift 

duty at the time, was northbound 

on East Road near P<strong>in</strong>e Avenue 

<strong>in</strong> Potter Valley when he fell 

asleep at the wheel of his 1997 

Jeep Wrangler. 

<strong>UPD</strong> Capt. Trent Taylor said 

Waidelich was on his way home 

about 7 a.m. <strong>in</strong> his personal vehicle 

after f<strong>in</strong>ish<strong>in</strong>g a standard, 12hour 

patrol shift.

a scholar and a gentleman and I can 

honestly tell you that Ray Chadwick is a 

scholar, an educator and a gentleman,” 

Tich<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong> added. 

Chadwick’s executive assistant, Beryl 

Hewitt, too, had only good th<strong>in</strong>gs to say 

about her boss. 

“I have been there s<strong>in</strong>ce 1982 and I have 

worked with several super<strong>in</strong>tendents and 

one of the nice th<strong>in</strong>gs about Super<strong>in</strong>tendent 

Chadwick is he is somebody who is 

competent on the job and he is also a nice 

person,” Hewitt said. “Anyone who is <strong>in</strong> 

the work<strong>in</strong>g world knows you can get one 

of those without the other, but Ukiah 

Unified has been really lucky with a 

number of super<strong>in</strong>tendents who have the 

gold standard of these two qualities 

comb<strong>in</strong>ed.” 

The CHP report said Waidelich 

drifted across the center lane 

of the roadway, then awoke, 

braked and pulled to the right <strong>in</strong> 

an attempt to avoid hitt<strong>in</strong>g an 

oncom<strong>in</strong>g vehicle. The front-end 

of a 1988 Mazda MX-6, driven 

by Maxwell Gold<strong>in</strong>g, 17, of 

Potter Valley, collided with 

Waidelich’s vehicle. 

Gold<strong>in</strong>g was southbound on 

East Road at an unknown speed 

at the time of the accident. The 

report said Waidelich had been 

go<strong>in</strong>g 45-50 mph. 

Both drivers suffered major 

<strong>in</strong>juries and were transported by 

ambulance to Ukiah Valley 

Medical Center for treatment. 

Gold<strong>in</strong>g was then airlifted to

‘We want to travel, and we have all sorts of projects planned around the house. 

I’d also like to take my guitar play<strong>in</strong>g skills to at least the mediocre level.’ 

RAY CHADWICK on his retirement plans 

“Super<strong>in</strong>tendent Chadwick, he’s very 

competent <strong>in</strong> both the bus<strong>in</strong>ess and the 

educational aspects of the school district. 

He knows how to get the right th<strong>in</strong>gs done 

at the right time and he’s a nice person 

besides, which makes it a pleasure to come 

to work everyday,” she said. 

His plans for retirement? 

“Pretty much the usual,” Chadwick said. 

“We want to travel, and we have all sorts of 

projects planned around the house. I’d also 

like to take my guitar play<strong>in</strong>g skills to at

The UUSD board is consider<strong>in</strong>g a 

proposal from the California School Boards 

association to conduct a search for 

Chadwick’s replacement.

Man jailed after reportedly shoot<strong>in</strong>g at neighbor 


FORT BRAGG -- Robert Isaac 

Vargas, 49, of Fort Bragg, was arrested 

on charges of assault and attempted 

murder after he allegedly fired a gun at 

another Fort Bragg resident and then 

barricaded himself <strong>in</strong> his house on 

Fawn Lane <strong>in</strong> Fort Bragg. 

Accord<strong>in</strong>g to reports from the 

Mendoc<strong>in</strong>o County Sheriff’s Office, 

Vargas drove <strong>in</strong>to the fence of his 

neighbor Lyle Galliani, 52, of Fort 

Bragg at around 8 p.m. Thursday. 

Galliani walked up the driveway to 

talk to Vargas about the accident, and 

then Vargas allegedly shot at Galliani, 

who felt pa<strong>in</strong> <strong>in</strong> his calf and fled the 

scene, call<strong>in</strong>g 911. 

It was later determ<strong>in</strong>ed that Galliani 

was un<strong>in</strong>jured, and it is suspected he 

may have been hit by a ricochet or 

fragment, accord<strong>in</strong>g to sheriff’s 

reports. 

Sheriff’s deputies responded to 

Vargas’ house and found that Vargas 

had barricaded himself <strong>in</strong>side. When 

deputies approached, Vargas threatened 

to shoot the law enforcement 

<strong>officer</strong>s, accord<strong>in</strong>g to the report. 

Deputies withdrew and called for 

backup, which <strong>in</strong>cluded Fort Bragg 

Police Department <strong>officer</strong>s, sheriff’s 

deputies from Willits and the South 

Coast area and the county Special 

Weapons and Tactics Unit which 

<strong>in</strong>cludes a crisis negotiator. The negotiator 

contacted Vargas, who eventually 

surrendered peacefully. 

Vargas was arrested on suspicion of 

attempted murder, assault with a deadly 

weapon and shoot<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> a negligent 

manner. He is be<strong>in</strong>g held <strong>in</strong> the 

Mendoc<strong>in</strong>o County Jail on a $250,000

LEGAL STRIKE THREAT <strong>UPD</strong>ATE 

County 

hopeful 

strike can 

be averted 

By BEN BROWN 


The county is hopeful negotiations with 

the Mendoc<strong>in</strong>o County Public Attorney’s 

Association will avoid a threatened strike 

that could hamper crim<strong>in</strong>al prosecution <strong>in</strong> 

the county, said Assistant County 

Executive Officer Alison Glassey. 

“We hope to return to the barga<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g 

table, and I have high hopes that we will 

come to a resolution,” Glassey said. 

On Thursday, the MCPAA voted 28-0, 

with three members absent, to strike on 

Feb. 28 if they do not receive a contract 

that br<strong>in</strong>gs salaries closer to market rate, 

said Deputy District Attorney and 

MCPAA President Matthew F<strong>in</strong>negan. 

“If they don’t come back to the table 

with a satisfactory offer, we walk,” he 

said. 

The MCPAA, which is now affiliated 

with the Teamsters Union, local 856, represents 

attorneys <strong>in</strong> the Mendoc<strong>in</strong>o 

County District Attorney’s Office, the 

Public Defenders Office, the Alternate 

Defenders Office and the Child Support 

Attorney’s Office. 

The MCPAA is ask<strong>in</strong>g that salaries be 

brought closer to the market rate for public 

attorneys <strong>in</strong> the surround<strong>in</strong>g five counties. 

Deputy District Attorney and MCPAA 

Negotiator Brian Newman said salaries 

are between 16 percent and 45 percent 

lower <strong>in</strong> Mendoc<strong>in</strong>o County than they are 

<strong>in</strong> surround<strong>in</strong>g areas. 

“Be<strong>in</strong>g out of market is a concern for 

all employees,” Glassey said. “The county 

is respond<strong>in</strong>g to the extent that it is fiscally 

responsible to do so.” 

The county has offered the MCPAA a 

similar deal to the one accepted by the 

Service Employees International Union <strong>in</strong> 

January. That contract <strong>in</strong>cluded a 3 percent 

cost of liv<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong>crease every year for 

the next three years with a possible raise 

of 5 percent, an offer the MCPAA f<strong>in</strong>ds 

unacceptable, F<strong>in</strong>negan said 

F<strong>in</strong>negan said the county has been 

negotiat<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> bad faith, cancel<strong>in</strong>g meet<strong>in</strong>gs 

and send<strong>in</strong>g a negotiator who was not 

empowered to make deals, but was merely 

a messenger between the MCPAA and 

the county. 

Additionally, the county has acted illegally

Crews search for survivors, 

bodies after severe storms 

smash Florida, kill<strong>in</strong>g 19 

LADY LAKE, Fla. (AP) — Disaster crews 

with dogs went from one pile of debris to 

another <strong>in</strong> a search for bodies Friday after powerful 

storms, <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g at least one tornado, 

smashed hundreds of homes across central 

Florida and killed 19 people or more. 

It was the deadliest comb<strong>in</strong>ation of thunderstorms 

and tornados to hit Florida <strong>in</strong> nearly a 

decade, cutt<strong>in</strong>g a 40-mile swath of destruction 

across four counties just before daybreak, terroriz<strong>in</strong>g 

residents of one of the nation’s biggest 

retirement communities, and leav<strong>in</strong>g trees and 

fields littered with clothes, furniture and spl<strong>in</strong>tered 

lumber. 

Residents helped pull the dead from the 

ru<strong>in</strong>s. 

“It was scary, really scary,” said Patrick 

Smith, who lives <strong>in</strong> the Paisley area, where at 

least 13 deaths were reported. He said he saw a 

weather alert on television, grabbed his wife 

and “went straight to the floor.” After the storm 

passed, he pulled the bodies of a man and his 

9- or 10-year-old son from a neighbor<strong>in</strong>g 

house. 

Florida’s emergency management chief, 

Craig Fugate, said it could take several days to 

determ<strong>in</strong>e the exact number of dead, and the 

ma<strong>in</strong> priority was f<strong>in</strong>d<strong>in</strong>g survivors who may 

be trapped. 

U.S. Army helicopter crashes 

<strong>in</strong> a hail of gunfire north of 

Baghdad, witnesses say 

BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) — A U.S. Army 

helicopter crashed Friday <strong>in</strong> a hail of gunfire 

north of Baghdad, police and witnesses said — 

the fourth lost <strong>in</strong> Iraq <strong>in</strong> the last two weeks. 

The U.S. command said two crew members 

were killed, and the top U.S. general conceded 

that <strong>in</strong>surgent ground fire has become more 

effective. 

A brief U.S. military statement gave no reason 

for the crash and did not identify the type 

of aircraft. A Pentagon official said it was an 

Apache attack helicopter, which carries two 

crew members. 

The official spoke on condition of anonymity 

because he was not authorized to release the 

<strong>in</strong>formation. Another Apache crashed Sunday 

dur<strong>in</strong>g heavy fight<strong>in</strong>g with a Shiite cult near 

Najaf, also kill<strong>in</strong>g two soldiers. 

Iraqi police and witnesses said the latest 

crash occurred about 7:30 a.m. as two Apaches 

were fly<strong>in</strong>g along a well-established air route 

near Taji, a major U.S. base about 12 miles 

north of Baghdad. 

One helicopter was struck by heavy 

mach<strong>in</strong>e gunfire but cont<strong>in</strong>ued fly<strong>in</strong>g, the witnesses 

said. The other helicopter banked 

sharply and flew back toward the source of 

fire, apparently to attack the target. 

Texas governor bypasses the 

Legislature, orders 

vacc<strong>in</strong>e for schoolgirls 

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Bypass<strong>in</strong>g the 

Legislature altogether, Republican Gov. Rick 

Perry issued an order Friday mak<strong>in</strong>g Texas the 

first state to require that schoolgirls get vacc<strong>in</strong>ated 

aga<strong>in</strong>st the sexually transmitted virus 

that causes cervical cancer. 

By employ<strong>in</strong>g an executive order, Perry 

sidestepped opposition <strong>in</strong> the Legislature from 

conservatives and parents’ rights groups who 

fear such a requirement would condone premarital 

sex and <strong>in</strong>terfere with the way Texans 

raise their children. 

Beg<strong>in</strong>n<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> September 2008, girls enter<strong>in</strong>g 

the sixth grade — mean<strong>in</strong>g, generally, girls 

ages 11 and 12 — will have to receive 

Gardasil, Merck & Co.’s new vacc<strong>in</strong>e aga<strong>in</strong>st 

stra<strong>in</strong>s of the human papillomavirus, or HPV. 

Perry also directed state health authorities to 

make the vacc<strong>in</strong>e available free to girls 9 to 18 

who are un<strong>in</strong>sured or whose <strong>in</strong>surance does not 

cover vacc<strong>in</strong>es. In addition, he ordered that 

Medicaid offer Gardasil to women ages 19 to 

21. Perry, a conservative Christian who opposes 

abortion and stem-cell research us<strong>in</strong>g embryonic 

cells, counts on the religious right for his 

political base. But he has said the cervical cancer 

vacc<strong>in</strong>e is no different from the one that 

protects children aga<strong>in</strong>st polio. 

Iraq spiral<strong>in</strong>g downward, 

U.S. says <strong>in</strong> new and sober<strong>in</strong>g

WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. 

acknowledged Friday that Iraq is spiral<strong>in</strong>g 

downward, with sectarian animosity grow<strong>in</strong>g

a precarious mix that could draw the country’s 

neighbors <strong>in</strong>to the violence if American troops

Intelligence Council was seen by congressional 

Democrats — and some Republicans — as 

new evidence that President Bush’s Iraq policy

The Rev. Larry

on Bill’s friendship: “Bill 

was from an old 

Ukiah family and was 

active <strong>in</strong> the Presbyterian 

Church at the time that 

the present sanctuary 

was built. He was on 

the build<strong>in</strong>g committee 

along with Floyd 

Lawrence. Bill considered 

the sanctuary his 

build<strong>in</strong>g, his enterprise, 

his project. 

Whenever I would connect 

with Bill at Rotary or <strong>in</strong> 

town somewhere, he 

would have wonderful stories 

to tell about the 

build<strong>in</strong>g and development 

of the church. He 

loved to give me books and 

tell me about 

books. Bill was a Ukiah 

version of the bon vivant, 

who knew all the stories 

and where everyth<strong>in</strong>g 

used to be.”

Many people, <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g a Nobel Prize w<strong>in</strong>ner, 

wrote letters <strong>in</strong> support of William French 

Anderson, Time magaz<strong>in</strong>e’s runner-up for Man 

of the Year <strong>in</strong> 1995. But Judge Michael E. 

Pastor said he caused “<strong>in</strong>calculable” emotional 

damage to a victim he described as an <strong>in</strong>secure 

and trust<strong>in</strong>g immigrant. 

“Because of <strong>in</strong>tellectual arrogance, he persisted 

and he got away with as much as he 

could,” the judge said. 

Anderson, 70, was convicted <strong>in</strong> July of child 

molestation. He could have gotten 18 years 

beh<strong>in</strong>d bars. 

Anderson has been called the “father of 

gene therapy” for his work on a promis<strong>in</strong>g but 

controversial experimental medical treatment

patients. 

Global warm<strong>in</strong>g will 

‘cont<strong>in</strong>ue for centuries,’ 

scientists say <strong>in</strong> report 

PARIS (AP) — Global warm<strong>in</strong>g is so severe 

that it will “cont<strong>in</strong>ue for centuries,” lead<strong>in</strong>g to 

a far different planet <strong>in</strong> 100 years, warned a 

grim landmark report from the world’s lead<strong>in</strong>g 

climate scientists and government officials. 

Yet, many of the experts are hopeful that 

nations will now take action to avoid the worst 

scenarios. 

They tried to warn of dire risks without scar<strong>in</strong>g 

people so much they’d do noth<strong>in</strong>g — <strong>in</strong>action 

that would lead to the worst possible scenarios. 

“It’s not too late,” said Australian scientist 

Nathaniel B<strong>in</strong>doff, a co-author of the authoritative 

Intergovernmental Panel on Climate 

Change report issued Friday. The worst can be 

prevented by act<strong>in</strong>g quickly to curb greenhouse 

gas emissions, he said. 

The worst could mean more than 1 million 

dead and hundreds of billions of dollars <strong>in</strong> 

costs by 2100, said Kev<strong>in</strong> Trenberth of the 

National Center for Atmospheric Research <strong>in</strong> 

Colorado, one of many study co-authors. He 

said that adapt<strong>in</strong>g will mean liv<strong>in</strong>g with more 

extreme weather such as severe droughts, more 

hurricanes and wildfires. 

“It’s later than we th<strong>in</strong>k,” said panel co-chair 

Susan Solomon, the U.S. National Oceanic and 

Atmospheric Adm<strong>in</strong>istration scientist who 

helped push through the document’s strong 

language.

Judge rejects government motion, 

allows Wiccan lawsuit to proceed 

By SCOTT BAUER 

The Associated Press 

MADISON, Wis. -- A 

federal lawsuit filed by 

Wiccans aga<strong>in</strong>st the U.S. 

Department of Veterans 

Affairs will proceed despite 

a request by the VA that it 

be put on hold for perhaps 

as much as a year. 

The lawsuit, filed <strong>in</strong> 

November by a California 

group, accuses the VA of 

com<strong>in</strong>g up with “excuse 

after excuse” for more than 

n<strong>in</strong>e years for not putt<strong>in</strong>g 

the Wiccan symbol on grave 

markers of veterans who 

were members of that religion. 

The department does 

not allow Wiccan religious 

symbols on veterans’ <strong>head</strong>stones 

<strong>in</strong> national cemeteries. 

The VA argued <strong>in</strong> a 

motion filed Jan. 19 with 

the U.S. District Court <strong>in</strong> 

Madison that the lawsuit 

should be put on hold while 

the department f<strong>in</strong>alizes a 

new rule govern<strong>in</strong>g symbols 

on gravestones. That 

process could take as long 

as 12 months, but the 

agency will make a decision 

on the Wiccan request with<strong>in</strong> 

a month after the new 

rule is issued, the government’s 

motion said. 

The Wiccans’ attorney 

objected, argu<strong>in</strong>g that noth<strong>in</strong>g 

requires the VA to f<strong>in</strong>alize 

its rules with<strong>in</strong> a year or 

to take up the Wiccan 

request at all. 

U.S. District Judge John 

Shabaz issued a one-l<strong>in</strong>e 

order on Jan. 26 allow<strong>in</strong>g 

the case to proceed. He set 

a trial date for June 29. 

“We’re pleased that the 

litigation will go forward, 

and the VA will not be able 

to delay further com<strong>in</strong>g to

on respect for the earth, 

nature and the cycle of the 

seasons. 

The Wiccan symbol is a 

pentacle, a five-po<strong>in</strong>ted star 

represent<strong>in</strong>g earth, air, fire, 

water and spirit. Variations 

not accepted by Wiccans 

have been used <strong>in</strong> horror 

movies as a sign of the 

devil. 

The lawsuit argues that 

the department’s refusal to 

act on requests to permit the 

symbol on veterans’ grave 

markers violated Wiccan’s 

constitutional rights of freedom 

of speech, religion and 

due process. The lawsuit 

seeks an order compell<strong>in</strong>g 

the VA to make a decision. 

The lawsuit was filed by 

Circle Sanctuary, Isis 

Invicta Military Mission, a 

Wiccan and Pagan congregation 

serv<strong>in</strong>g military personnel 

based <strong>in</strong> Geyserville, 

Calif., and two widows of 

Wiccans -- Roberta Stewart 

of Nevada and Karen 

DePolito of Utah. 

The lawsuit says it makes 

no sense for Wiccan symbols 

to be banned from 

grave markers when Wiccan 

soldiers can list their faith 

on dog tags, Wiccan organizations 

are allowed to hold 

services on military <strong>in</strong>stallations, 

and the Army 

Chapla<strong>in</strong>s Handbook 

<strong>in</strong>cludes an explanation of 

the religion. 

Americans United also 

objects to the VA’s proposed 

rule cover<strong>in</strong>g acceptance of 

new symbols on grave 

markers, Katskee said. It 

conta<strong>in</strong>s guidel<strong>in</strong>es that 

give the VA too much discretion 

<strong>in</strong> decid<strong>in</strong>g what to 

allow and does not have a 

firm enough timel<strong>in</strong>e govern<strong>in</strong>g 

the process, he said. 

“It leaves a lot of room 

for the government to reject 

th<strong>in</strong>gs out of hand,” 

Katskee said. 

The VA has suspended 

consideration of all requests 

while the new rule is be<strong>in</strong>g 

drafted. A message left with 

its public affairs office was 

not immediately returned. 

The VA currently allows 

38 religious symbols to be 

placed on gravestones. The 

list <strong>in</strong>cludes commonly recognized 

symbols for 

Christianity, Buddhism, 

Islam and Judaism, as well 

as those for smaller religions 

such as Sufism 

Reoriented, Eckiankar and 

the Japanese faith Seicho-

and elbowed, try<strong>in</strong>g to be co-capta<strong>in</strong> rather 

than just w<strong>in</strong>gman, or worse, w<strong>in</strong>glady. 

F<strong>in</strong>ally, <strong>in</strong> Iowa, she was once more beh<strong>in</strong>d 

the wheel of her spaceship to Mars. She didn't 

have to prop up Bill after one of his roguish 

pratfalls. She didn't have to feign <strong>in</strong>terest <strong>in</strong> 

East W<strong>in</strong>g piffle -- table sett<strong>in</strong>gs and pastry 

chefs and designer gowns. She didn't have to 

defer to her male colleagues <strong>in</strong> the Senate, 

stepp<strong>in</strong>g back to give them the limelight. 

She positively glistened as she talked about 

how "I" -- rather than the "we" of '92 -- would 

run the world. 

Humbly, graciously, deftly, she offered 

Iowa the answer to that eternal question, What 

Is Hillary Owed? 

Everyth<strong>in</strong>g. 

John Wood, a self-described "pla<strong>in</strong>sman," 

Republican and mach<strong>in</strong>ery-and-tool salesman 

from Davenport, asked Hillary how she would 

handle the world's evil and bad men, provok<strong>in</strong>g 

the slyly ambiguous retort: "What <strong>in</strong> my 

background equips me to deal with evil and 

bad men?" 

He said afterward that he was more worried 

about her ability to face down villa<strong>in</strong>s, "be<strong>in</strong>g 

a lady," but conceded, "The woman did good 

today." 

(His question was rem<strong>in</strong>iscent of Ali G's 

<strong>in</strong>terview of Newt G<strong>in</strong>grich, when the faux 

rapper asked whether a female president 

would be turned on and manipulated by evil 

dictators, given that, with women, "the worse 

you treat 'em, the more they want you.") 

As YouTube attests, Hillary didn't care 

about style as first lady; she was too busy try<strong>in</strong>g 

to get <strong>in</strong> on Bill's substance. She showed 

off a long parade of unflatter<strong>in</strong>g outfits and 

unnerv<strong>in</strong>gly chang<strong>in</strong>g hairdos. 

In Iowa, her national anthem may have 

been off-key, but her look wasn't. It was an 

attractive mirror of her political message: 

man-tailored with a dash of p<strong>in</strong>k fem<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>ity. 

"I th<strong>in</strong>k you look very nice," a veteran of 

the Persian Gulf War told her <strong>in</strong> Des Mo<strong>in</strong>es. 

"Thank you!" she answered, beam<strong>in</strong>g and 

laugh<strong>in</strong>g. 

When Gerald<strong>in</strong>e Ferraro made her historic 

run <strong>in</strong> '84, she tried to blend a mother's concerns 

<strong>in</strong>to her foreign policy answers, but it 

did not work so well once she started gett<strong>in</strong>g 

her nuclear term<strong>in</strong>ology mixed up. 

Hillary dealt with the issue <strong>head</strong> on -- "I'm 

a woman; I'm a mom" -- hop<strong>in</strong>g to stir that 

sisterly vote that Ferraro failed to draw after it 

turned out that many women were skeptical 

about one of their own fac<strong>in</strong>g down the 

Soviets. 

Unlike Barack Obama, who once said he 

was bored by the suburbs, she <strong>in</strong>troduced herself 

<strong>in</strong> the land of b<strong>in</strong>go and bacon as a product 

of the suburbs, wallow<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> the m<strong>in</strong>utiae 

of kitchen-table issues. 

W. and Cheney have lavished attention and 

money on Iraq, leav<strong>in</strong>g Americans feel<strong>in</strong>g 

neglected. Hillary offered Iowans a warm 

bath of "you," homey rum<strong>in</strong>ation rather than 

harsh dom<strong>in</strong>ation. 

(Though Jon Stewart warned on "The 

Daily Show" that her slogan -- "Let the conversation 

beg<strong>in</strong>!" -- will not help her with 

men. "I th<strong>in</strong>k the typical response would be, 

'Now?"' he said, add<strong>in</strong>g that her new Iraq policy 

is, "America, let's pull over and just ask 

for directions.") 

Thomas<strong>in</strong>e Johnson, a 66-year-old from 

outside Des Mo<strong>in</strong>es, compla<strong>in</strong>ed that Hillary 

talked too much about "traditional women's 

issues," but many <strong>in</strong> the audiences seemed 

enthralled. 

The Achilles' heel of "The Warrior," as she 

is known, is the war. She expressed outrage 

about Iraq, but ended up sound<strong>in</strong>g like a 

mother whose <strong>teen</strong>age son has not cleaned up 

his room: "The president has said this is go<strong>in</strong>g 

to be left to his successor and I th<strong>in</strong>k it's the 

height of irresponsibility, and I really resent 

it." 

She uttered the most irritat<strong>in</strong>g and dis<strong>in</strong>genuous 

n<strong>in</strong>e words <strong>in</strong> politics: "If we had 

known then what we know now. " 

Jim Webb knew. Barack Obama knew. 

Even I knew, for Pete's sake. The adm<strong>in</strong>istration's 

trickery was clear <strong>in</strong> real time. 

Hillary didn't have the nerve to oppose a 

popular president on a national security issue 

after 9/11, and she feared be<strong>in</strong>g cast as an 

anti-war hippie when she ran. Now she feels 

she can't simply say she made a bad decision. 

And that makes her seem conniv<strong>in</strong>g -- not a 

good mix with nurtur<strong>in</strong>g.

GOP now left out 

To the Editor: 

Is bipartisan alive <strong>in</strong> Wash<strong>in</strong>gton D.C.? 

If so, why did Speaker Nancy Pelosi, 

despite campaign promises about chang<strong>in</strong>g 

the tone <strong>in</strong> Wash<strong>in</strong>gton, decide to 

exclude Republicans from the first efforts 

of legislation, forbidd<strong>in</strong>g them to offer 

amendments or alternatives? We know 

that she would have not gotten her agenda 

through <strong>in</strong> the ‘first 100 hours’, but this 

act does not set the stage for long term 

cooperation. Why has the media not 

reported this data to the voters? 

Did you read David Brooks’ Jan . 5 

Santa Rosa Press Democrat article, “In 

Wash<strong>in</strong>gton, D.C. it’s upper class warfare”? 

He writes about the millionaire 

Republican rancher (Bush) vs. the millionaire 

Democrat <strong>in</strong>vestor/m<strong>in</strong>or owner 

<strong>in</strong> Auberge da Soleil resort hotel and 

Corde Vallae Golf Club (Pelosi), and the 

attempts to conv<strong>in</strong>ce us how much they 

relate to those of us who labor <strong>in</strong> our daily 

jobs. Are these people really aware of, or 

care about us? For weeks we’ve been 

hear<strong>in</strong>g that the President does not. How 

about Pelosi? She sure spent a lot of energy/time 

draw<strong>in</strong>g attention to herself prior 

to January 8. 

Do we have another “<strong>in</strong> your face”? “

months.... this is war and I have the larger 

‘army’ on my side.!” I read a report from

WHERE TO WRITE 

American Center for Law and Justice that 

two HR docket issues that the Speaker 

will br<strong>in</strong>g up are: 1) a move for the U.N. 

tak<strong>in</strong>g over the security of the U.S. and 

do<strong>in</strong>g away with the Homeland Security 

Agency; 2) a bill expand<strong>in</strong>g the def<strong>in</strong>ition 

of “lobbyist” to <strong>in</strong>clude any church or 

organization that strives to <strong>in</strong>fluence public 

op<strong>in</strong>ion (would that <strong>in</strong>clude the 

ACLU?). That means speak<strong>in</strong>g out on 

major moral as well as political issues 

would jeopardize tax exempt status. Will 

‘free speech’ be a th<strong>in</strong>g of the past if this 

passes? (We certa<strong>in</strong>ly would not want our 

churches advocat<strong>in</strong>g on the rights and 

wrongs <strong>in</strong> our society). Aga<strong>in</strong> I ask, if we 

can read about such items on the Internet 

why have we not read about them <strong>in</strong> our 

newspapers or heard of it on radio/TV? 

I urge you to make contact with 

Senator Boxer, Fe<strong>in</strong>ste<strong>in</strong> and Rep. 

Thompson and get an update on what is 

their response to issues and bipartisan 

efforts. Also, let our local media know 

where you stand and what you expect of

NICHOLAS KRISTOF 

Do-gooders with 

spread sheets 

DAVOS, Switzerland -- The World Economic 

Forum here <strong>in</strong> Davos is the k<strong>in</strong>d of place where if you 

let yourself get distracted while walk<strong>in</strong>g by a 

European prime m<strong>in</strong>ister on your left, you could end 

up tripp<strong>in</strong>g over a famous gazillionaire -- and then 

spill<strong>in</strong>g your coffee onto the k<strong>in</strong>g on your right. But 

perhaps the most remarkable people to attend aren’t 

the world leaders or other bigwigs. 

Rather, they are the social entrepreneurs. Davos, 

which has always been uncanny <strong>in</strong> peek<strong>in</strong>g just a<strong>head</strong> 

of the curve to reflect the zeitgeist of the moment, 

swarmed with them. 

So what’s a social entrepreneur? Let me give a few 

examples among those at the forum <strong>in</strong> Davos. 

(AST)In Africa, where children die of diarrhea from 

bad sanitation, Isaac Durojaiye runs a franchise system 

for public toilets. He supplies mobile toilets to 

slum areas, where unemployed young people charge a 

small fee for their use. The operators keep 60 percent 

of the <strong>in</strong>come and pass the rest back to Durojaiye’s 

company, Dignified Mobile Toilets, which uses the 

money to buy new toilets. 

(AST)Nic Frances runs a group that aims to cut carbon 

emissions <strong>in</strong> 70 percent of Australian households 

over 10 years. His group, Easy Be<strong>in</strong>g Green, gives out 

low-energy light bulbs and low-flow shower <strong>head</strong>s -after 

the household signs over the rights to the carbon 

emissions the equipment will save. The group then 

sells those carbon credits to <strong>in</strong>dustry to f<strong>in</strong>ance its 

activities, and it is now aim<strong>in</strong>g to expand globally. 

(AST)In the United States, Gillian Caldwell and her 

group, Witness, tra<strong>in</strong> people around the world to use 

video cameras to document human rights abuses. The 

result<strong>in</strong>g videos have drawn public attention to issues 

like child soldiers and the treatment of the mentally ill. 

Now, Caldwell aims to create a sort of YouTube for 

human rights video clips. 

Social entrepreneurs like Caldwell resemble traditional 

do-gooders <strong>in</strong> their yearn<strong>in</strong>g to make the world 

a better place, but sound like chief executives when 

they talk about metrics to assess cost-effectiveness. 

Many also generate <strong>in</strong>come to f<strong>in</strong>ance expansion. 

“We’re totally self-susta<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g,” said Mirai 

Chatterjee, a dynamo who is coord<strong>in</strong>ator of the Self- 

Employed Women’s Association <strong>in</strong> India. “From Day 

1 our idea was to run a strong economic organization.” 

Chatterjee’s organization now has nearly 1 million 

members, owns a bank, runs 100 day care centers, 

tra<strong>in</strong>s midwives and provides health <strong>in</strong>surance for 

200,000 women. It is empower<strong>in</strong>g women and fight<strong>in</strong>g 

poverty across a grow<strong>in</strong>g swath of rural India, and 

its down-to-earth approach is characteristic of social 

entrepreneurs. 

“Politics is fail<strong>in</strong>g to solve all the big issues,” said 

Jim Wallis, who wrote “God’s Politics” and runs 

Sojourners, which pushes social justice issues. “So 

when that happens, social movements rise up.” 

Muhammad Yunus, who won the Nobel Peace Prize 

last year, demonstrated with Grameen Bank the power 

of microf<strong>in</strong>anc<strong>in</strong>g. His bank has helped raise <strong>in</strong>comes, 

secure property rights for women, lower population 

growth and raise education standards across 

Bangladesh -- and now the success is rippl<strong>in</strong>g around 

the globe. 

One of those <strong>in</strong>spired by Yunus, for example, was 

Roshaneh Zafar, a young Pakistani economist. She 

quit her job and started Kashf, a microf<strong>in</strong>ance <strong>in</strong>stitution 

that now gives hundreds of thousands of Pakistani 

women a route out of poverty. 

Zafar also received help from Ashoka, a hugely 

<strong>in</strong>fluential organization for social entrepreneurs started 

by an American, Bill Drayton (who describes social 

entrepreneurs as “the most important historical force 

at work today”). Ashoka is one of a grow<strong>in</strong>g number 

of donor groups that offers the equivalent of venture 

capital for social entrepreneurs. 

“The key with social entrepreneurs is their pragmatic 

approach,” said Pamela Hartigan of the Schwab 

Foundation for Social Entrepreneurship, which is 

affiliated with the World Economic Forum. “They’re 

not out there with protest banners; they’re actually 

develop<strong>in</strong>g concrete solutions.” 

When I travel around the world, I’m blown away by 

how these people are transform<strong>in</strong>g lives. Grow<strong>in</strong>g 

numbers of the best and brightest university graduates 

<strong>in</strong> the United States and abroad are mov<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong>to this 

area (many clutch<strong>in</strong>g the book “How to Change the 

World,” a bible <strong>in</strong> the field). 

It’s one of the most hopeful and helpful trends 

around. These folks aren’t famous, and they didn’t fly 

to Davos <strong>in</strong> first-class cab<strong>in</strong>s or private jets, but they 

are show<strong>in</strong>g that what it really takes to change the 

world isn’t so much wealth or power as creativity, 

determ<strong>in</strong>ation and passion.

March 23 

While some people collect 

songs or exotic plants, Leeya

contemporaries of Jesus” for

These monologues, plus a few 

from other contributors, are 

the backbone of an unusual

offered for twenty-eight 

women on March 23 through 

March 25. 

The stories told through 

these monologues challenge 

the traditional way of see<strong>in</strong>g 

Jesus, Mary Magdalene and 

many of the disciples. Indeed, 

the Christian myth will undergo 

an <strong>in</strong>tense reexam<strong>in</strong>ation

Santa Cruz and Monterey. 

Unlike the Jesus Sem<strong>in</strong>ar 

or other attempts to p<strong>in</strong> down 

the historical Jesus or 

Magdalene, these be<strong>in</strong>gs, like 

all the others, are seen as 

archetypes with<strong>in</strong> all of us. 

For this reason the monologues 

have been called 

Timeless Voices. These Voices 

are as clear, sharp and <strong>in</strong> need 

of heal<strong>in</strong>g now as they were 

2000 years ago. 

The name given to this 

event is Mystic Theatre, not <strong>in</strong> 

the conventional sense of performance 

and theater, but as 

the creative expression of all 

the participants over the twoday 

period.

Mendoc<strong>in</strong>o College baseball 

The Mendoc<strong>in</strong>o College baseball team 

started its season this past week with two 

double <strong>head</strong>ers aga<strong>in</strong>st the College of the 

Redwoods and came out with a 1-3 

record 

In the first game last Friday, the Eagles 

lost the contest by a score of 9-2 even 

though Mendoc<strong>in</strong>o out hit the visit<strong>in</strong>g 

Corsairs. 

Travis Mather went 2-for-3, Tucker 

Mesker went 2-for-4 and Daniel Areyalos 

went 2-for-3 with two RBIs. 

In the second game of the day, the 

Eagles lost by almost the same score as 

the first, 8-2. Mendoc<strong>in</strong>o tallied seven 

hits for the game. 

Travis Mather went 1-for-3 but had 

two RBIs on the day and six other players 

had at least one hit.

Friday night was the last home game 

for the Ukiah High boy’s basketball team 

and was also Senior Night where parents 

of seniors and senior players were recognized 

for their accomplishments on and 

off the basketball court. 

The Wildcats had four seniors play<strong>in</strong>g 

their last game on their home court. And 

those seniors did exactly that, played like 

it was their last game. 

Chris Frey, Simeon Thomas, Cesar 

Vega and Drew Steliga were the aforementioned 

seniors that left it all on the 

court <strong>in</strong> the 56-48 loss to the Prospectors 

from P<strong>in</strong>er High. 

“We tried so hard tonight,” said UHS 

<strong>head</strong> coach Bill Heath. “It might sound 

redundant, but this team plays so hard 

and we did exactly that tonight. 

“All four of our seniors had great 

games tonight and I am so proud of them 

and the entire team for play<strong>in</strong>g so hard to 

try to send these guys off with a w<strong>in</strong>.” 

Alas it was not the fairy tale end<strong>in</strong>g 

the Wildcats would have liked, but it was 

a showcase of the heart and soul of this 

team, com<strong>in</strong>g from 21 down <strong>in</strong> the second 

quarter, and cutt<strong>in</strong>g the Prospector 

lead to five po<strong>in</strong>ts with 2:11 left to play 

<strong>in</strong> the fourth quarter. 

In the first quarter of play, the 

Wildcats and Prospectors played a very 

close game never wield<strong>in</strong>g more than a 

2-po<strong>in</strong>t lead until the clos<strong>in</strong>g second of 

the quarter. 

The Wildcats would hold the lead for 

just over a m<strong>in</strong>ute on a jumper by Cesar 

Vega, but rel<strong>in</strong>quished it back to P<strong>in</strong>er on 

a layup by Philly Sebhata, who f<strong>in</strong>ished 

the game with 15 po<strong>in</strong>ts. Vega had a 

solid defensive night with four po<strong>in</strong>ts, 

five steals and a block. 

The Prospectors took a 16-10 lead 

<strong>in</strong>to the second quarter of play with the 

Wildcats chomp<strong>in</strong>g at the bit to w<strong>in</strong> on 

the special night. 

In the second quarter, the Wildcats 

missed layups and didn’t get the shots to 

fall and allowed P<strong>in</strong>er to build a lead of 

32-16 at the 1:38 mark. 

The Wildcats would be down by as 

many as 21 but cut the lead to 19 at halftime, 

38-19. 

“We missed quite a few layups 

throughout the game,” Heath said. “But 

we showed what we’re made of <strong>in</strong> the

In the first game, Mendoc<strong>in</strong>o lost a 

much closer battle with CoR 6-2. CoR 

scored five runs <strong>in</strong> the first <strong>in</strong>n<strong>in</strong>g to put 

the Eagles <strong>in</strong> a hole they could never 

muster out of. In the second game of the 

double <strong>head</strong>er, the Eagles bounced back 

and scored five runs <strong>in</strong> the second <strong>in</strong>n<strong>in</strong>g 

and three <strong>in</strong> the eighth to hold on for the

MLB NOTES | BONDS’ CONTRACT 

Letter sent to fans about Bonds 

By JANIE McCAULEY 

AP Sports Writer 

SAN FRANCISCO — Giants owner 

Peter Magowan sent a letter to about 

27,000 season-ticket holders this week 

expla<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g why the club decided to resign 

free agent slugger Barry Bonds for 

another season. 

“The process of negotiat<strong>in</strong>g this contract 

was complex, lengthy and highly 

unconventional,” Magowan wrote 

Monday <strong>in</strong> his letter, obta<strong>in</strong>ed by The 

Associated Press on Friday. “This decision 

was not taken lightly and we spent 

significant time evaluat<strong>in</strong>g all of the elements 

and circumstances surround<strong>in</strong>g the 

negotiations before we made a f<strong>in</strong>al 

determ<strong>in</strong>ation to move forward.” 

Magowan and executive vice president 

Larry Baer have repeatedly said they 

have a strong understand<strong>in</strong>g of the organization’s 

fan base, and these periodic 

letters are one way they communicate 

with that group. The team had heard a 

variety of op<strong>in</strong>ions from many of its fans

dur<strong>in</strong>g recent months regard<strong>in</strong>g Bonds, 

who will beg<strong>in</strong> the 2007 season 22 

homers shy of break<strong>in</strong>g Hank Aaron’s 

career record of 755. 

The 42-year-old Bonds’ $15.8 million, 

one-year contract had been completed 

Monday night, but the sides then had differ<strong>in</strong>g 

views of certa<strong>in</strong> language <strong>in</strong> the 

deal and Bonds had yet to sign a revised 

version as of Friday. 

Magowan’s letter addressed Bonds’ 

reported failed amphetam<strong>in</strong>es test <strong>in</strong> 

2006. 

The New York Daily News reported 

last month that when Bonds first learned 

of the result, he attributed it to a substance 

he took from teammate Mark 

Sweeney’s locker. 

“Everyth<strong>in</strong>g is false. Mark Sweeney 

never did anyth<strong>in</strong>g wrong. Period,” 

Bonds said <strong>in</strong> a conference call Monday 

night. “My relationship with Mark 

Sweeney is phenomenal. We are very 

good friends. ... We’re f<strong>in</strong>e.” 

In an earlier public statement, Bonds

cleared Sweeney and said, “he did not 

give me anyth<strong>in</strong>g whatsoever and has 

noth<strong>in</strong>g to do with this matter.” Bonds 

wouldn’t address whether he <strong>in</strong>deed took 

amphetam<strong>in</strong>es. 

“Of particular concern were the allegations 

aga<strong>in</strong>st Barry <strong>in</strong> the New York 

Daily News on January 12th,” Magowan 

wrote. “We consider any action by one 

player to unfairly damage the reputation 

of another player to be a serious matter. 

Based on the <strong>in</strong>formation that we have at 

hand <strong>in</strong> this matter and <strong>in</strong> discussions 

with both players, all of the facts have not 

been accurately portrayed. 

“After evaluat<strong>in</strong>g the situation and its 

potential impact on clubhouse chemistry, 

we came to the conclusion that the 

Giants’ players will be able to function as 

a team committed to support<strong>in</strong>g each 

other and dedicated to do<strong>in</strong>g everyth<strong>in</strong>g 

they can to succeed on the play<strong>in</strong>g field.”

Pacers lock up Lakers 95-84 

The Associated Press 

INDIANAPOLIS — 

Danny Granger was look<strong>in</strong>g 

forward to fac<strong>in</strong>g Kobe 

Bryant and the Los Angeles 

Lakers. 

Granger scored 14 po<strong>in</strong>ts, 

but it was his defense on 

Bryant that stood out as the 

Indiana Pacers beat the Lakers 

95-84 on Friday night. 

The second-year forward 

helped hold Bryant to 22 

po<strong>in</strong>ts on 7-of-25 shoot<strong>in</strong>g 

from the field as the Pacers 

rallied <strong>in</strong> the fourth quarter to 

w<strong>in</strong> for the fifth time <strong>in</strong> their 

last six games. 

“I try to look at him as just 

another player,” Granger said. 

“He’s a good player, but 

there’s also Dwyane Wade, 

LeBron James, Carmelo 

Anthony — who I’ve all 

played aga<strong>in</strong>st. Maybe last 

year I was a little enamored by 

the superstars, but this year 

they’re just another player to 

me.” 

Jerma<strong>in</strong>e O’Neal had 22 

po<strong>in</strong>ts and n<strong>in</strong>e rebounds, 

Jamaal T<strong>in</strong>sley f<strong>in</strong>ished with 

16 po<strong>in</strong>ts and reserve Darrell 

Armstrong scored 14 for 

Indiana (25-21), which used a 

17-2 fourth-quarter run to pull 

away. 

O’Neal was impressed with 

the Pacers’ defense, which 

held Los Angeles to 38 percent 

shoot<strong>in</strong>g and forced 20 

turnovers. 

“I th<strong>in</strong>k Danny Granger 

and the rest of the team did a 

great job of play<strong>in</strong>g team 

defense on Kobe and mak<strong>in</strong>g 

other guys take some tough 

shots,” O’Neal said. “Any 

time we play good team 

defense, we have an opportunity 

to w<strong>in</strong> the game.” 

Bryant entered the game 

averag<strong>in</strong>g 28.8 po<strong>in</strong>ts and was 

com<strong>in</strong>g off a 43-po<strong>in</strong>t effort <strong>in</strong> 

the Lakers’ w<strong>in</strong> over Boston 

on Wednesday. 

“The ball wouldn’t go <strong>in</strong> 

for me,” he said. “Tonight was 

just one of those nights where 

noth<strong>in</strong>g seemed to go right.” 

Bryant had seven po<strong>in</strong>ts 

and Smush Parker scored n<strong>in</strong>e 

of his 20 po<strong>in</strong>ts <strong>in</strong> the third 

quarter as the Lakers turned a 

five-po<strong>in</strong>t deficit <strong>in</strong>to a 70-61 

lead late <strong>in</strong> the period. 

But the Pacers scored n<strong>in</strong>e 

straight po<strong>in</strong>ts to tie the score 

early <strong>in</strong> the fourth, and m<strong>in</strong>utes 

later Armstrong and 

T<strong>in</strong>sley hit consecutive 3po<strong>in</strong>ters 

to spark the w<strong>in</strong>n<strong>in</strong>g 

run for Indiana. Granger’s 

layup gave the Pacers an 89- 

76 lead with 1:30 rema<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g. 

“It says a lot because we 

were down and we could have 

easily folded,” Granger said. 

“We kept fight<strong>in</strong>g and kept 

plugg<strong>in</strong>g away.” 

Bryant made two straight 

3-po<strong>in</strong>ters to br<strong>in</strong>g the Lakers 

with<strong>in</strong> 89-82, but the Pacers 

hit some key free throws 

down the stretch to seal the 

w<strong>in</strong>. 

“That’s an ugly way to end 

the game,” Los Angeles coach 

Phil Jackson said. “It looked 

like it was go<strong>in</strong>g to be a duel 

down to the f<strong>in</strong>ish.” 

The Pacers jumped to an 

early double-digit lead beh<strong>in</strong>d 

O’Neal’s 13 po<strong>in</strong>ts. Mike 

Dunleavy’s layup gave 

Indiana a 24-12 advantage 

with 3 m<strong>in</strong>utes left <strong>in</strong> the first 

quarter.

After fall<strong>in</strong>g beh<strong>in</strong>d by five 

po<strong>in</strong>ts to beg<strong>in</strong> the third quarter,

turnovers to take control.

and the Lakers took a 55-53 

edge after Ronny Turiaf’s 

powerful two-handed dunk on 

a fast break. Parker’s dunk 

gave Los Angeles its biggest 

lead, 70-61. 

“We gave ourselves a little

In the third quarter the

2 field goals the entire quarter. 

Wildcat senior Drew

on consecutive possessions 

midway though the quarter. 

Steliga f<strong>in</strong>ished his f<strong>in</strong>al game 

with eight po<strong>in</strong>ts, seven

Wildcats coach Heath also

should not have been given 

the 1 percent raise and that its

was an “error <strong>in</strong> cod<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> the 

payroll system.” She said the 

2004 agreement does not 

apply to the MCPAA. 

F<strong>in</strong>negan said the MCPAA 

was formed with the understand<strong>in</strong>g 

that county attorneys 

would cont<strong>in</strong>ue to receive 

salary under the previously 

negotiated contract until a 

new agreement could be 

reached. 

“The law requires that the 

county ma<strong>in</strong>ta<strong>in</strong> the status

A memo, sent to Newman 

by Interim Human Resources 

Director L<strong>in</strong>da Clouser on 

Monday, said each attorney 

owes the county a repayment 

of $280.80, which can be 

deducted from their paychecks 

<strong>in</strong> a lump sum or <strong>in</strong> 

<strong>in</strong>stallments of $25 per paycheck. 

“If the Human Resources 

Department does not hear

On Friday, Glassey said the

they don’t, the county will 

have to take the attorneys to

Newspapers start campaign to fight image of decl<strong>in</strong>e 

By RYAN NAKASHIMA 

AP Bus<strong>in</strong>ess Writer 

LAS VEGAS — The newspaper 

<strong>in</strong>dustry this week announced a $75 million 

market<strong>in</strong>g campaign to declare its 

relevance <strong>in</strong> the Internet age as advertis<strong>in</strong>g 

revenues were flat, buffeted by major 

mergers and a wounded domestic auto 

<strong>in</strong>dustry. 

It’s the second year <strong>in</strong> a row that the 

Newspaper Association of America has 

advertised directly to its advertisers, try<strong>in</strong>g 

to change the perception that the 

<strong>in</strong>dustry is on the decl<strong>in</strong>e, executives 

said. 

“I am sick and tired of all the doom 

and gloom reports out there about the 

death of this <strong>in</strong>dustry,” said Earl Cox, 

chief strategic <strong>officer</strong> of The Mart<strong>in</strong> 

Agency, the market<strong>in</strong>g group <strong>in</strong> charge of 

the campaign. The perception is “<strong>in</strong>accurate 

and it’s unfair and it’s unacceptable.” 

Ad revenue at its member papers <strong>in</strong> the 

third quarter of last year decl<strong>in</strong>ed 1.5 percent 

from a year earlier to $11.79 billion, 

accord<strong>in</strong>g to the NAA. Traditional pr<strong>in</strong>t 

ads fell 2.6 percent to about $11.2 billion 

while onl<strong>in</strong>e ads rose 23 percent to $638 

million. Total ad revenues were slightly 

up for the first two quarters of the year. 

The campaign attempts to attack the 

notion that newspapers are be<strong>in</strong>g left 

beh<strong>in</strong>d <strong>in</strong> the battle to attract consumer 

“eyeballs.” 

One campaign slogan reads: “The 

Internet is the best th<strong>in</strong>g to happen to 

newspapers s<strong>in</strong>ce the paper boy.” 

A central figure is a cartoon character 

seen read<strong>in</strong>g a newspaper onl<strong>in</strong>e while 

carry<strong>in</strong>g a cellular phone tower and typ<strong>in</strong>g 

on two keyboards. 

“This is about audience and audience 

is a multimedia term,” said John Kimball, 


WASHINGTON — Wary 

employers slowed hir<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> 

January, push<strong>in</strong>g the unemployment 

rate to a four-month 

high of 4.6 percent and giv<strong>in</strong>g 

jobseekers a bumpy start to 

the year. 

Still, the Labor Department’s 

employment report on 

Friday suggested the jobs 

market rema<strong>in</strong>s <strong>in</strong> solid shape. 

The more subdued job creation 

<strong>in</strong> January — 111,000 

new positions compared with 

206,000 <strong>in</strong> December — is 

consistent with the expecta-

“Newspapers have multiple channels <strong>in</strong>to 

the marketplace that we didn’t used to 

have and that’s what we’re talk<strong>in</strong>g about. 

That audience is not shr<strong>in</strong>k<strong>in</strong>g. That audience 

is grow<strong>in</strong>g.” 

While pr<strong>in</strong>t copy circulation has been 

on the decl<strong>in</strong>e for a quarter century, Web 

page hits by unique visitors is grow<strong>in</strong>g, 

he said. More than 58 million unique visitors 

checked out onl<strong>in</strong>e newspaper Web 

sites <strong>in</strong> September 2006, more than read 

Yahoo! News and MSNBC.com comb<strong>in</strong>ed, 

he said. That’s up 22 percent from 

the previous year. 

But a core issue for papers is how 

those readers are counted. While many 

advertisers factor Web traffic <strong>in</strong>to ad 

rates, physical circulation “is still the 

co<strong>in</strong> of the realm,” said Neal Lulofs, 

spokesman for the Audit Bureau of 

Circulation, which checks newspaper 

claims of circulation and audience. 

Last year, the ABC <strong>in</strong>troduced a “consolidated 

media report” for papers that 

want third party proof of circulation and 

Web traffic presented <strong>in</strong> a “total contacts” 

figure. 

Advertisers are also pay<strong>in</strong>g more 

attention to the demographics of a publication’s 

audience, which can be more 

readily tracked onl<strong>in</strong>e, he said. 

Only about 50 newspapers have their 

Web traffic audited by the ABC, <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g 

The New York Times, the San 

Francisco Chronicle and Toronto Star, he 

said. 

“The trend is not circulation or readership 

or circulation or audience, it’s circulation 

and,” Lulofs said. 

The announcement of the campaign, to 

launch April 2, came as The New York 

Times Co. announced Wednesday a large 

tion that the economy’s 

growth as a whole will moderate. 

That means the unemployment 

rate may well slowly 

climb this year. 

“Across a range of employers’ 

behavior, there is some 

caution. They are wonder<strong>in</strong>g 

how an expected moderation 

<strong>in</strong> economic activity will 

evolve,” said Ken Mayland, 

president of ClearView 

Economics. Analysts predict 

the economy will lose some 

speed <strong>in</strong> the January-to-March 

period follow<strong>in</strong>g an energetic 

October-to-December quarter. 

Factories, automotive companies, 

home builders and furniture 

makers all cut jobs last 

month, casualties of the hous<strong>in</strong>g 

slump and the ail<strong>in</strong>g auto 

<strong>in</strong>dustry. Hotels and motels, 

cloth<strong>in</strong>g stores, and telecommunications 

companies also 

shed jobs. 

Those losses tempered job 

ga<strong>in</strong>s at hospitals and nurs<strong>in</strong>g 

homes, bars and restaurants, 

architectural and eng<strong>in</strong>eer<strong>in</strong>g 

firms, account<strong>in</strong>g and bookkeep<strong>in</strong>g 

companies, the government

of $648 million for the three-month period 

ended <strong>in</strong> December. Revenue rose 4.3 

percent to $931.5 million, a<strong>head</strong> of analysts’ 

estimates. 

The trouble at the two subsidiaries 

reflects a problem for the newspaper 

bus<strong>in</strong>ess as a whole, said analyst Edward 

Ator<strong>in</strong>o with The Benchmark Company. 

Major telecom and retail company mergers, 

along with a struggl<strong>in</strong>g auto and real 

estate sector, have caused ad spend<strong>in</strong>g 

overall to stagnate. 

“Their efforts have been blunted, 

thwarted by circumstances beyond their 

control,” Ator<strong>in</strong>o said. “There’s been a 

dramatic shift <strong>in</strong> advertis<strong>in</strong>g spend<strong>in</strong>g 

across a range of categories that has 

affected advertis<strong>in</strong>g growth overall. It 

just disappeared.” 

Some sem<strong>in</strong>ars at the NAA’s annual 

market<strong>in</strong>g conference <strong>in</strong> Las Vegas, 

which ran from Sunday to Wednesday, 

urged some 2,000 member newspapers <strong>in</strong> 

the U.S. and Canada to make use of their 

onl<strong>in</strong>e presence to boost subscriptions 

and provide more value to advertisers. 

Scott St<strong>in</strong>es, president of mass2one, 

said his company’s permission-based email 

market<strong>in</strong>g program has helped 

newspapers reta<strong>in</strong> customers and extract 

a few more advertis<strong>in</strong>g dollars from ad 

clients. 

“There’s no home runs, there’s no 

grand slams <strong>in</strong> any media channel,” he 

said. “It’s about s<strong>in</strong>gles and bunts and 

bases on balls. It’s about every little

“Bus<strong>in</strong>esses were not <strong>in</strong> the

Joel Naroff, president of

Aga<strong>in</strong>st this backdrop, 

January’s unemployment rate 

rose from 4.5 percent <strong>in</strong> 

December to its highest po<strong>in</strong>t

the bump-up, though, the seasonally

Dear Annie: My husband and I have been

a work<strong>in</strong>g mother, and with that comes much 

guilt for be<strong>in</strong>g away from my children dur<strong>in</strong>g 

the day. My husband and I try to spend as much 

non- work<strong>in</strong>g time with our children as possible. 

We do not go out unless our children are 

allowed to accompany us. 

My widowed mother-<strong>in</strong>-law lives two hours 

away and likes to visit often. She is a k<strong>in</strong>d 

woman, but gets frustrated when we don’t 

spend as much time with her as she th<strong>in</strong>ks we 

should. She was upset that we stayed only two 

days at Christmas. We were with her at 

Thanksgiv<strong>in</strong>g, so it wasn’t like we hadn’t seen 

her. 

Mom’s job allows her many long weekends, 

and when she comes to see us, she likes to stay 

until Monday morn<strong>in</strong>g, when we have to go to 

work. Not to mention, our weekends are very 

valuable to us as a family. It’s the ma<strong>in</strong> time we 

get to spend with our kids. My husband agrees, 

but he is uncomfortable say<strong>in</strong>g anyth<strong>in</strong>g to his 

mother. 

She once told me she thought we should 

spend one weekend a month at her house, and 

she would come to us one weekend a month. I 

th<strong>in</strong>k this is too much. Is that terrible of me?

Dear Annie: My husband and I have been 

married for 60 years. He is very k<strong>in</strong>d and helpful, 

but he likes to give advice to everyone, 

whether he is asked for it or not. It is mak<strong>in</strong>g 

me angry, and I am often embarrassed because 

of it. If I confront him about his behavior, he 

gets mad and it turns <strong>in</strong>to an argument. 

He’s always been like this, but with ag<strong>in</strong>g, 

it’s gotten worse and bothers me more. Is there 

anyth<strong>in</strong>g I can do? -- Married to Annie’s 

Mailbox 

Dear Married: Is his advice any good? 

Suggest he start putt<strong>in</strong>g his ideas <strong>in</strong>to a book. It 

will keep him occupied, and who knows -maybe 

he can sell it. Other than that, you’d 

best gr<strong>in</strong> and bear it. After 60 years, he’s not 

go<strong>in</strong>g to change. 

Dear Annie: I am writ<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> response to 

“Still Young,” whose 71-year-old mother 

wants a part-time job. I will be 71 <strong>in</strong> a couple 

of weeks and work as a receptionist for the 

State of Oregon House of Representatives. I 

love my job. It is fun, <strong>in</strong>terest<strong>in</strong>g and very

reward<strong>in</strong>g. Three other receptionists are older 

than I am. We look forward to work<strong>in</strong>g, and we 

greet everybody with a smile. 

When the Legislature is not <strong>in</strong> session, we 

volunteer <strong>in</strong> Visitor Services at the State 

Capitol. By be<strong>in</strong>g out <strong>in</strong> the public, work<strong>in</strong>g or 

volunteer<strong>in</strong>g, we stay young and our bra<strong>in</strong>s 

keep work<strong>in</strong>g. 

If her mother likes work<strong>in</strong>g and enjoys her 

job, she will stay healthier. It is a known fact 

that seniors who keep busy live longer. My 

husband is 82 and still work<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> a very 

demand<strong>in</strong>g physical job. He acts like he’s 60. -

Dear Shirley: We are truly impressed with 

the variety and difficulty of the jobs held by 

our over-70 readers. And if it improves your 

health at the same time, we are all <strong>in</strong> favor.

THOMASVILLE, Ga. — 

A south Georgia woman 

bloodied <strong>in</strong> a car wreck says 

she owes her life to a German 

shepherd who — thankfully 

— just wouldn’t stay <strong>in</strong> his 

yard. 

Shannon Lorio says that 

after her car careened down an 

embankment, the wayward 

dog found her bruised and battered 

on the vehicle’s trunk, 

pulled her by her shirt collar, 

dragged her about 50 yards 

through briars to a highway 

and let her lean aga<strong>in</strong>st him so 

she could flag a pass<strong>in</strong>g 

motorist. 

His new name: Hero. 

“That dog is always go<strong>in</strong>g 

to have a special place <strong>in</strong> my 

heart,” Lorio said Friday. 

“He’s my hero.”

Hero’s previous owners 

have signed him over to the 

Thomasville-Thomas County 

Humane Society s<strong>in</strong>ce the Jan. 

26 accident because he kept 

wander<strong>in</strong>g off. 

He won’t be <strong>in</strong> the shelter 

long: Not only have at least 50 

people offered to adopt him, a 

dog tra<strong>in</strong>er has agreed to see if 

he has the right stuff for 

search and rescue work. 

Lorio’s car tumbled backward 

down an embankment <strong>in</strong> 

a remote, heavily wooded 

area. She said she lost control 

on a curve and was thrown 

onto the trunk. 

“I was bleed<strong>in</strong>g from my 

face and my nose,” she said. 

“All of a sudden, I felt a presence 

— a really huge presence.
