Although he has yet to file, Mayor Charlie Hales says he intends to run
for office again.
Saying that he believes
Portland has turned a corner
and is headed into a unprecedented period of change, Mayor Charlie Hales has decided
to run for reelection in 2016.
“I’m enjoying the job and believe I am the right person for it,”
Hales said during a Portland Tri-

Vigor gets bigger
via Kvichak merger
Foti said the new move will
add to the company’s diversity,
especially in supporting offshore
oil and gas operations in the
Arctic.
The combined company will
build offshore support vessels,
oil spill response vessels and
systems, modules, rigs, terminals and related structures,
and employ about 2,500 people
in Alaska, Oregon and
Washington.
Foti told the Tribune in an
email that the idea of the merger
came last year.
“Keith Whittemore, Kvichak’s
president, and I have known
each other for quite a few years,
and we both serve together on
the Shipbuilders Council of
America. After Vigor’s merger
with Oregon Iron Works (OIW)
last year, conversations started
about the possible combination
of the businesses.”
He said the merger will be job
positive.
“For employees of both companies, the merger will help support stable work and create
room for advancement. We will
be able to invest more in training, workforce development and
leadership development.”
The firm can now compete for
“large-scale, complex marine
projects” that neither could do
alone.
Fishing vessels in aging North
Pacific fleets need replacing at a
projected cost of between $7 billion and $14 billion. Other projects include the support of offshore oil and gas operations in
the Arctic, and foreign and domestic military sales such as
high-performance aluminum
boats for defense applications.
Asked whether government
was a help or a hindrance in the
merger, Foti wrote, “The government was neither a help or a
hindrance.”
Kvichak’s current owners
(Jim Meckley, Brian Thomas
and Keith Whittemore) will join
Vigor as shareholders and as
members of the leadership
team.

Portland’s Vigor Industrial
is merging with Kvichak Marine Industries.
The companies announced on
March 3 that they would “unite
their strengths in the design and
fabrication of aluminum workboats, shipbuilding and boat
building.”
Seattle-based Kvichak (pronounced kwee-jack), which
makes workboats, will become a
wholly-owned subsidiary of
Vigor.
Kvichak is known for its commercial fishing boats, such as
gillnetters, seiners and tenders,
while Vigor builds and maintains larger ships, and recently
opened the largest dry dock on
the West Coast, the Vigorous.
Keith Whittemore, president
of Kvichak, said: “Vigor shares
our values and our commitment
to providing long-term opportunity to our people.”
“The Kvichak team builds the
best aluminum workboats in the
country, arguably the world,”
said Vigor CEO and owner
Frank Foti. “Infusing those fabrication genetics into our broader
operations is what industrial
evolution is all about.”
In 2014, Vigor and Oregon
Iron Works (OIW) merged, expanding Vigor’s reach into highly complex industrial products
in marine, renewable energy,
aerospace, nuclear containment,
transit, defense, hydroelectric,
bridge building and other commercial construction industries.

Atkins will take on secretary of state role Spelling: Cha moves
Brown names
on
to
national
contest
longtime legislator
to serve remaining term
By PETER WONG
Capital Bureau
Jeanne Atkins of Portland,
a longtime Democratic legislative and senatorial staffer,
is Gov. Kate Brown’s appointee to succeed her as Oregon
secretary of state.
Atkins will be sworn in at 1
p.m. Wednesday, March 11, in
the governor’s ceremonial office at the Capitol.
The 65-year-old Atkins will
serve the slightly less than two
years remaining in the second
term of Brown, who succeeded
John Kitzhaber as governor
upon Kitzhaber’s resignation
Feb. 18. She has said she does
not plan to seek a term of her
own next year.
“I am pleased to be able to
appoint a successor with such
impeccable professional credentials,” Brown said in a
statement.
Atkins had stepped down recently as state director for U.S.
Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., who
won a second term Nov. 4. The
state director oversees Merkley’s six home-state offices and
the senator’s activities when he
is in Oregon.
Atkins had held that job
since mid-2009, after Merkley
became a senator.
She also was Merkley’s chief
of staff when Merkley was
speaker of the Oregon House in
2007 and 2008, just before Merkley was elected to the U.S. Senate in 2008.
She had been with Merkley
since Merkley became House
Democratic leader in 2003,
three years before Democrats

Jeanne Atkins lost her two bids
for elected office, but became

appointment by Gov. Kate Brown.

until a replacement is elected.
became the House majority
party and he became speaker.
“Gov. Brown couldn’t have
picked a more dedicated and
experienced public servant to
become our next secretary of
state. Jeanne Atkins is a true
Oregon gem and supremely
qualified,” Merkley said in a
statement.
In a retirement tribute Jan.
8, Merkley had this to say
about Atkins:
“Jeanne is not someone who
got into politics to be important
or powerful. She got into policy
and politics because she believed in public service and she
believed that each person has
the power to make a difference.
It is one of the attributes I most
value about having her on my
team.”
She also was staff director
for the Oregon Senate Majority
Office more than 20 years ago,
when Dick Springer of Portland was the leader.
“I worked closely with
Jeanne Atkins when she
worked in the Legislature,”
Senate President Peter Courtney, D-Salem, said in a state-
ment. “She’s intelligent. She’s
professional. She’s a veteran
administrator who knows state
government. Jeanne will serve
Oregon and her people well.
Gov. Brown has made an excellent choice.”
But House Republicans,
while acknowledging that
Brown was compelled to
choose a Democrat as her interim successor, complained
about Atkins’ previous career.
“The law calls for a Democratic placeholder in the Secretary of State’s Office, but I don’t
know that Gov. Brown could’ve
picked an individual with more
partisan credentials than Ms.
Atkins,” said Kara Walker, the
House GOP spokeswoman.
“This appointment comes a
day after the governor named
the former Oregon teachers’
union leader as her new education policy adviser. OEA yesterday, Planned Parenthood today
— what’s tomorrow, Sierra
Club? It’s clear that the same
old revolving door of partisan
ideologues is alive and well in
Salem.”
Atkins also was a manager
in the Oregon Department of
Human Services, leading the
women’s and reproductive
health section of the Office of
Family Health from 1998 to
2004.
She has worked for several
nonprofit agencies, among
them the United Way of the Columbia/Willamette, Planned
Parenthood of the Columbia/
Willamette, and the Women’s
Equity Action League in Washington, D.C.
“Jeanne Atkins is greatly respected for her years of hard
work and dedication to Oregon,
and I trust that she will serve
ably as our secretary of state,”
said House Speaker Tina
Kotek, D-Portland.
As secretary of state, Atkins
will oversee elections — which
are conducted by officials in
Oregon’s 36 counties — and audits, state archives and business functions.
Although she will be secretary of state, Atkins as an appointee would not become governor if something happened to
Brown. The Oregon Constitution specifies that succession
falls to an official already elected — in this case, state Treasurer Ted Wheeler.
She earned a bachelor’s degree from the University of
Washington in 1971 and a law
degree from the University of
Oregon in 1978.
Senate Majority Leader
Diane Rosenbaum, D-Portland,
says she has known Atkins
well for more than 15 years.
Rosenbaum’s statement:
“Jeanne is an experienced,
fair, and effective leader who
will take great care of the duties of the Secretary of State’s
Office. I worked closely with
her in the House Democratic
Office, the speaker’s office, and
Sen. Jeff Merkley’s office. She
is eminently qualified, and I
look forward to working with
her as Senate majority leader
and chair of the Senate Rules
Committee.”
She has run twice for the Oregon House, losing in 1992 and
1994.
She is married to John Atkins; they live in Portland.
“I share the values and enthusiasm for this position that
Gov. Kate Brown demonstrated
during her tenure,” Atkins
said. “I will be diligent in carrying out the responsibilities of
the office of Oregon secretary
of state.”

and by 2 years old she was

Cha repeatedly asked for
the origin of her assigned
spelling words. “The language
of origin helps a lot,” she said.
The spelling champ is looking forward to her all-expenses-paid trip to Washington,
D.C., in May to the Scripps
National Spelling Bee. Cha,
who has never been to Washington, D.C., is most excited
about the actual spelling bee,
rather than the sights.
“That’ll be super cool,” she
said.
Many of the spellers were
eliminated early in the bee,
which lasted nearly two
hours. The first round saw
seven fall and in the second
round, another 11 were eliminated.
By the end of round six, only four girls and one boy were
left to spell.
Two-time winner Divya
Amirtharaj, 13, from Meadow
Park Middle School, Beaverton, was stumped this year in
round nine by the word “orrery.” During each of the past
two years, Amirtharaj made it
through three rounds at the
national spelling bee.
Manasi Sridhar, 14, from
Hazlebrook Middle School,
got tripped up on the word
“assassinate.” Luc Ta, 12,
from Thomas Fowler Middle
School, was knocked out by
“Muzak.”
At the beginning of round
10, just Cha and Mungara
were left. They spelled a
string of words, including “effete,” “Appolo” and “nonuple.”
Spell these
Nonuple
adjective
1. consisting of nine, being nine

Winze
noun
a steeply inclined passageway in a

To win, the final speller must
spell two words in a row correctly.
Cha had an impressive
cheering section. Both sets of
Cha’s grandparents, one from
California and the other from
Michigan, were there to watch
her victory.
The bragging rights come
with the trip to Washington
D.C., a $100 American Express
gift certificate from Comcast,
a Webster’s Third New International Dictionary, and a
one-year subscription to the
Encyclopedia Britannica Online Student Edition.
Cha’s advice for improving
your spelling? “Read a lot. It’s
a fun way to learn new words,”
she said.

Under a public-private partnership worked out with the

“We are at a point now where
we can make things happen instead of just fixing problems,”
Hales said.
As Hales sees it, the improving
economy is increasing city revenues enough to launch new initiatives, including increased
funding for affordable housing
and tax breaks for businesses
that benefit society by doing
such things as hiring people released from prison. Both ideas
were included in the State of the
City speech Hales delivered before the Portland City Club at the
end of January.
“Going forward, I’m going to
be rolling out proposals to implement the talking points in the
State of the City speech,” Hales
said.
Hales has not yet decided on a
reelection campaign budget. He
has raised around $35,000 in the
past two months.

is a combination of public investments, new regulations,
and good planning. He took
credit for the recent decision to
allocate $20 million for more affordable housing in North and
Northeast Portland, and noted
his urban renewal reforms will
generate an additional $47 million for affordable housing in
the expanded North Macadam
renewal area.
Hales also said he is lobbying
the 2015 Oregon Legislature to
change the law and allow cities
to be able to require developers
to include a certain number of
affordable units in their housing developments. He said city
planning efforts are making affordable neighborhoods in the
Lents, Gateway and David
Douglas School District areas
more desirable places to live.
“Portland is the only major
city on the West Coast where a
young family can still buy a
starter home in an established
neighborhood just a few miles
from downtown, and we need
to keep it that way,” Hales said.
At the same time, Hales said
poverty was an increasing
problem in Portland. He pointed to a September 2014 study
by local economist Joe Cortright titled, “Lost in Place,”
that found the number of census tracts in town with 30 percent or more of the people liv-

gentrification
According to Hales, one of
the greatest challenges facing
Portland is keeping the city
affordable for families while
accommodating the new people
and jobs that are coming.
Recent studies show that more
young professionals are moving
to town to take jobs with start-up
companies and enjoy the city’s
internationally famous culture.
However, they are also helping to
drive up the cost of housing in
close-in neighborhoods, contributing to the gentrification that
has already pushed many minorities to the East Portland and
Gresham areas.
“We don’t want to turn out
like San Francisco, where our
kids can’t afford to live here but
we have really cool restaurants,” Hales told the editorial
board.

ing below the poverty level increased from just three in 1970
to 11 today.
“We have to make sure that
everyone is included in the economic recovery,” said Hales,
explaining that is why he supported raising the minimum
wage paid to city employees to
$15 an hour. Hales said he will
soon be launching a dialogue
with private employers in Portland to do the same.
Hales also admitted disappointment over his inability to
enact a new street fee to pay for
more maintenance and safety
projects.
Hales said he and Transportation Commissioner Steve
Novick suspended their push
for the fee during the 2015 Oregon Legislature at the request of
former Gov. John Kitzhaber and
House Speaker Tina Kotek. At
the time, Hales hoped the Legislature would approve a major
transportation funding package, reducing the amount of
new funds the city needs. Now
Hales thinks the Legislature
will only approve a modest
package, increasing the pressure on he and Novick to restart
the discussions this fall.
“The need is not going away
and I’m still committed to doing
something about it,” Hales said.

Voters may get what
they want with Hales
L
ooks like Portland Mayor Charlie Hales will run
for another term in 2016.
We haven’t had a mayor
run for re-election since Vera
Katz. In today’s Portland Tribune exclusive, the mayor says
he believes he deserves a second term because of improved
relations between the public
and the police bureau and his
improved transparency with the
water bureau. We say if you add
in his inability to get a street fee
passed in Portland, he gave voters the exact three things they
were hoping for.
•••
We’re pretty sure Hales won’t
be getting many votes from the
east side of town. A handful of
residents want to secede from
the city of Portland. They want
to form a new, more responsive
government that is in touch
with the needs and desires of
people living east of 82nd Avenue. It won’t be easy; their first
petition was rejected by the city.

Weirder. It could have been
worse. If it weren’t for Cylvia
Hayes, John Kitzhaber and the
Portland street fee, we would
have been fifth.
•••
Windfall alert. If you hate
your driver’s license photo (and
who doesn’t?), your friendly Oregon legislators are hoping SB
461 will allow you to retake that
hideous shot for a small fee, presumably something north of the
standard replacement fee of
$26.50. Typical, politicians taking advantage of people’s weaknesses. If only it was this easy to
replace a lawmaker.

Idaho is getting more bizarre
by the day. Now our neighbors
to the east are enforcing a ban
on businesses that serve alcohol
to people watching sexually explicit films. The booze ban includes showings of “50 Shades
of Grey.” Too bad. For many
husbands it’s the only way to

We took a little heat on Facebook this week for promoting
that a woman should be featured on a new $20 U.S. bill. The
100th anniversary of the Constitutional amendment that gave
women the right to vote is coming up in 2020, and there is a
campaign to put a woman’s face
on our paper currency. We suggested Kate Upton. Some listeners didn’t appreciate that. But,
hey, it’s a way to get Americans
to start saving money, right?
For those who support Cylvia
Hayes on future currency, we
suggest the $3 bill.
•••
Finally, we can eat and text
behind the wheel. Reports
abound that self-driving cars
will be in 30 U.S. cities by the
end of 2016. Can’t wait for them
to get here to Portland. It means
there will be fewer people honking at us in rush-hour traffic.
•••
The Oregon House passed SB
324, the clean-fuels bill, and the
governor is expected to sign it.
According to the Department of
Environmental Quality, you
should expect to pay between 4
and 19 cents more per gallon of

Debate heats up over
propane terminal plan
Workshop reviews
safety risks, checks
at proposed facility
By STEVE LAW
The Tribune
Community debate is heating up over how safe — or
how dangerous — a propane
terminal might be that’s proposed near Hayden Island in
North Portland.
Pembina Pipeline Corp., the
Canadian terminal developer,
hosts an all-day workshop today to review safety features
planned at the $500 million export terminal at the Port of
Portland’s Terminal 6. In front
of perhaps 35 technical experts
and city and neighborhood representatives, Pembina may divulge, for the first time, preliminary findings on potential
“hazard zones” surrounding
the project — areas of North
Portland that might be affected
by gas leaks and explosions at
the terminal, said Pembina’s local project manager Eric Dyck.
“Nothing else matters” if the
facility isn’t safe, Dyck said at a
briefing for reporters last
Wednesday.
Today’s workshop, which is
closed to the media and general public, comes as nervous
Hayden Island residents and
environmental groups circulate a “white paper” by island
residents that depicts five potential “threat zones” surrounding the site. The white
paper was researched and
written by physicist A. Roxburgh, computer systems architect Ron Ebersole and professor of doctoral studies
Timme Helzer, collaborating
with others in the Northwest
Citizen Science Initiative.
The authors describe a potential accident where propane
leaks and then ignites from one
pressurized rail car or bulletshaped storage tank, sending
flying shrapnel that sets off a
domino reaction among 100 rail
cars, storage tanks and other
equipment.
The white paper concludes
anyone within one mile of the
propane terminal might be
killed by such an accident,
known as a Boiling Liquid Expanding Vapor Explosion, or
BLEVE. Those within 1.5 miles
might be exposed to serious injury or burns to people and
buildings; anyone within 2.9
miles might be exposed to ruptured eardrums and shattered
glass, and shrapnel might
shoot out at high speeds for up
to 6.7 miles in any direction.
Dyck, Pembina’s vice president for marine terminals, dismissed the white paper’s scenario as alarmist.
“A BLEVE’s just not going to
happen,” he said. That would
require an extraordinary
amount of significant heat that
goes totally undetected for several hours, he said, detailing
Pembina’s safeguards designed
to prevent that from occurring.

to an accident would be Pembina employees, and perhaps
workers at the adjacent Honda
terminal, Dyck said. The nearest residents live at the Class
Harbor floating homes on East
Hayden Island, 1.4 miles to 1.7
miles away, he said.
The worst-case scenario at
the Portland site, Dyck said,
would be a four-foot hole in a
giant refrigerated propane
tank holding up to 23 million
gallons of propane.
“There’s no historic failure,
period” from those tanks,
which are made of doublewalled steel, Dyck said.
“There’s hundreds of these
tanks in existence” in the United States, he said.
But a series of oil-train derailments and explosions has
caused heightened fears
among the public, even though

PIPELINE CORP.
SAFETY PLANS
Here’s how Pembina plans to
address safety concerns at its proposed North Portland propane terminal:
Fires: “You don’t fight a propane fire,” said Eric Dyck,
Pembina’s local project manager.
Neither water nor chemical foam
is effective. Instead, firefighters try
to contain the fire by dousing surrounding items. A large on-site
water tank is planned. The Port of
Portland also can extract more
water from the Columbia River
slough alongside the terminal.
Fire detection: A series of automated “fire eyes” will constantly
monitor for fires through an infrared heat-detection system.
Gas leaks: Automated “sniffers”
will be deployed to detect gas by
mechanically smelling leaks.
Earthquakes: Pembina must
meet Oregon’s updated 2014
seismic code, so the terminal can
withstand a 9.0 magnitude earthquake off the Oregon Coast and a
7.0 magnitude earthquake at the
site. Two large refrigerated propane
storage tanks will be buttressed
with 36-inch-diameter pilings that
are dug 160 feet deep. To stabilize
the site and make sure the riverbank doesn’t give way, Pembina
will create a massive foundation
attached to below-ground bedrock: a 3,000-foot-long wall that’s
120 feet wide and 100 feet deep.
Floods: The site is on a floodplain, so the facility must withstand 1 percent floods, the most
severe type that occur, on average,
once per century.
Terrorism: The entire site is
gated, with limited access, and
under the authority of the U.S.
Department of Homeland Security.
Waterways: The U.S. Coast
Guard controls safety and security
in the Columbia River and slough.
Canoers and kayakers will be kept
away when ships are being
offloaded.
Trains: Propane will be shipped
in pressurized form in U.S. DOT
112 trains that are no more than
six years old. U.S. DOT 112 trains
are much safer than the trains
being used to transport Bakken
crude oil.

sentinels of the Southwest
neighborhoods, and as I see
them being cut down, I do not
recognize Portland.
By commenting on the Draft
2035 Comprehensive Plan, we
need to work together to make
sure that the livability we currently enjoy is not a casualty of
development. It will guide development in Portland for the next
20 years. It is full of ambiguous
language and it is missing the
metrics that we could use to evaluate whether the plan is working
and its goals are being met.
Since the 1970s, neighborhood associations have included residents in land-use decisions. The draft plan has put
neighborhood associations on
the chopping block. If it is not
amended, then the power of the
neighborhood associations will
be diminished.
The comprehensive plan currently in place requires that the
city coordinate land-use planning by providing notice of official hearings to the neighborhood associations. This language has been removed from
the draft plan. Not only that,
the proposed glossary definition of “neighborhoods” concludes: “In general, the word
‘neighborhoods’ is not intended
to refer to specific neighborhood geographies.”
What?
If you live in Portland and
are over age 18, then you are eligible to be a member of your
neighborhood association. You
don’t have to own property or
be a citizen — you just have to
say that you want to join, and
then you can vote to influence
the positions taken by your
neighborhood association. Portland’s 95 neighborhood associations are united into seven
neighborhood coalitions. These
need to be strengthened.
Portlanders should request
that the draft plan be amended
to define neighborhoods by
their association boundaries
and that the existing role of the
neighborhood associations not
only be retained but expanded.
We should ask the Planning
and Sustainability Commission
to create a seat for each neighborhood coalition on the commission and on all major landuse committees. This is a way
to have our voices heard.
The public comment period
for the draft plan ends March
13. You may submit comments
to the PSC by emailing PSC@
portlandoregon.gov or by writing to the Planning and Sustainability Commission at 1900
S.W. Fourth Ave., Portland OR

your name and address so that
your comments will become

READERS’LETTERS
Close legal loophole on sales of guns
W
hen I look at the
world my young
grandchildren are
growing into, it
makes me very worried. It
seems like almost every day we
read of another death by gun
violence.
It doesn’t surprise me when I
read that, from 2002 to 2011,
more than 4,000 people were
killed with guns in Oregon.
Gun violence has become a
public safety issue. How do we
protect children and women,
who are the victims of domestic
violence and potential suicides?
One of the easiest and most
effective ways is through universal background checks.
Right now Oregon requires
background checks from gun
dealers and at gun shows. None
are required for private and Internet sales. Please let your
legislator know that you want
to close this loophole and protect our community.
Jan Brady
Tigard
Gun check
legislation is needed
to protect kids
No child should ever die because of a gun. Whether due to
a planned act of violence, as
we have seen in tragic school,
theater or workplace shootings, or an unintentional incident involving adults or other
children, the loss of a child because of a gunshot should never happen.
As a pediatrician, this topic
is extremely important to me.
The issue at hand is not about
gun ownership or constitutional rights. It is about each
child’s right to life, liberty and
the pursuit of happiness. Every child has the right to grow
up in a community free of violence and protected from
harm.
Every year in Oregon, somewhere between 40,000 and
75,000 guns are sold without a
background check, the equivalent of one gun for each 11 children in our state.
Almost all Oregonians support legislation mandating
background checks for all gun
sales, including 83 percent of
gun owners. We must protect
Oregon’s next generation and
pass common sense legislation
to protect our kids from gun
violence, and a cornerstone of
that must be universal background checks.
It’s not anti-gun, it’s pro-kid!

Don’t take parents’
vaccination rights
away
The proposed elimination of
Oregon’s philosophical exemption to vaccination makes a
mockery of the legal and ethical principle of informed consent.
Any vaccine, like any other
drug or invasive medical procedure, carries a risk, however small, of serious injury or
death. Parents are required to
acknowledge as much when
they sign consent forms prior
to the administration of vaccines.
While a society may conclude that these risks to the
few are outweighed by the
benefits to the many, forced
medical procedures are a violation of the most basic principles of a free society and of international law. Parents
should not be forced to assume these risks on behalf of
their children against their
sincerely held objections, be
they rooted in religious beliefs or intellectual conviction.
This should be something
both conservatives and progressives can agree on, regardless of their views on vaccination.

Electric cars benefit people, economy, air

any Oregon families
received an unexpected Christmas
present this year in
the form of lower gas prices.
This “gas dividend” helped
families put more presents under the tree. This trend may be
helping to spur the national
economy.
Now, just
imagine the
impact it
would have on
your family if
gas were just
$1. That’s not a
fantasy: it’s the
equivalent cost
Henkin
of driving an
electric car in
Oregon today.
In my family’s case, the $10 to
$20 worth of electricity we use
each month, combined with our
$195 monthly lease, is still less
than we were spending on gas
for my wife’s round-trip commute to her job as a grade
school principal.
In effect, we’re getting a free
car — one that requires no oil
changes or stops at the gas station, creates no smog, and reduces global warming pollution by
about 75 percent. Furthermore,
since the electric motor provides
instant torque, it’s tremendously
fun to drive.
There are now more than a
dozen electric and plug-in hybrid
car models available in Oregon,
and more and more families like
mine are taking advantage of the
“electric dividend” by buying
them.
By Zach Henkin
The state of Oregon also benefits from this “electric dividend.”
Oregonians spend more than $6
billion a year on gasoline and diesel, which creates virtually no
jobs in Oregon. One study from
California found that every dollar
shifted out of gasoline produces
16 times more jobs — and this
one car in our family already is
keeping about $3,000 a year at
work here in Oregon.
Despite their growing availability and appeal, however, electric vehicles still have slightly
higher sticker prices, in the
$30,000 range, and many of the
most favorable leases still require
down payments in the range of
$2,500. While there is a $7,500 federal tax credit available, some 80
percent of Oregon taxpayers
don’t make enough money or
have enough tax liability to take
full advantage of that credit.
That’s why the Energize Oregon Coalition, which includes
more than 100 businesses, conservation and public health
groups, and other stakeholders,
is supporting legislation to create a $3,000 Oregon rebate for
electric cars. Studies suggest
that even this modest rebate —
about 10 percent of the purchase
price of the most popular electric cars — can increase their
market share by 50 percent to 80
percent, with twice the impact
of an equivalent tax credit. In
fact, Atlanta has become a leading electric vehicle market in
large part due to Georgia’s state
incentive.
The rebate is projected to cost
less than $4 million a year — the
equivalent of less than a penny a
gallon on the price of gas. Getting
more Oregonians behind the
wheel of an electric car will produce dividends for Oregon families, for our economy, and for the
environment for years to come.
It’s an investment well worth
making.
Zach Henkin, an Oregon City resident, is a program director for Drive
Oregon, a nonprofit organization
working to grow the electric vehicle
industry and promote electric transportation in Oregon.

In Loving Memory
Patricia Zundel (Trish) passed
away peacefully in her home on
Sunday, March 1st, 2015.
She was born on December 27th 1949, in Pampa,
TX to William and Maxine Smith. At the age of 1, her
family moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico. Trish
attended Valley High School and competed at a very
high level on the golf team. She graduated in 1967.
Trish also attended Eastern New Mexico University.
While in Albuquerque, she met and married
William Zundel (Bill). The couple moved to Gresham,
Oregon in 1973.
Trish worked accounting for several organizations
and was a great partner for Zundel Design. She found
passion as a floral designer and also enjoyed bowling,
fishing with her family, playing golf at the Gresham
Golf Course and scrapbooking. She was a long-time
member of Open-Door Baptist Church.
Her faith and positive attitude remained strong
while enduring such a debilitating disease,
Corticobosal Degeneration. Even during the toughest
moments, she found reasons to smile and could make
others do the same. She was a loving mother, wife and
loyal friend.
Trish is survived by her husband Bill of 42 years,
daughter Dusti Unger (John), brother Mike, and
preceded in death by her son James.
The family will hold a private memorial to
celebrate Trish’s life. In lieu of flowers, the family
suggests donations be made in her name to Open
Door Baptist Church. 27710 SE Strebin Rd, Troutdale,
OR 97060.

worked for the Portland Public Schools. He also had his
own upholstery shop where he enjoyed restoring antique
cars, making sports bags and athletic gear for his children
and building custom rocking horses and doll houses for
his grandchildren.
Jeanette worked for Pendleton
Woolen Mills but finished her career
as a manicurist, which she loved as it
gave her the flexibility to be with her
grandchildren. Jon and Jeane loved
bowling and antiquing together. They
resided in Gladstone and Lake Oswego
for more than 40 years.
They are survived by eight children:
Craig, Cris, Cary, Clark and Casey

Propane: No past failures detected in steel tanks
■ From page 4
propane is shipped in safer rail cars and has a reputation as a safe fuel to handle.
Pembina didn’t ease such fears when it kept
dodging questions from neighbors, environmentalists and reporters about the potential “blast zone”
of its propane terminal. However, Dyck was
pressed to answer the question at a Jan. 13 public
hearing before the Portland Planning and Sustainability Commission. Dyck testified that preliminary estimates for another proposed propane terminal on the West Coast were for a 300-yard blast
zone.
On Wednesday, he said that referred to the inner, most dangerous zone, that might cause fatalities.
Pembina actually relies on a third party to determine hazard zones, Dyck said. That will be DNV
GL, a Norwegian company that boasts it’s “the
leading technical adviser to the global oil and gas
industry.”
After today’s review of safety information, DNV
will prepare a draft Quantitative Risk Assessment,
evaluating every possible catastrophe or accident at
the site — including a potential BLEVE. That risk
assessment, including hazard zones, will be presented to the Planning and Sustainability Commission at its March 17 work session, Dyck said.
Then a final report will be readied for the commission’s April 7 public hearing on the project. At
that time, commissioners may make a recommendation on the terminal project and forward it to the
Portland City Council, which has the final say.

Port of
Portland’s
Terminal 6 would

proposed $500
million propane
export facility,

propane to Asia.

Democrats act quickly More heat expected at
to pass trio of bills reservoir hearing in May
GOP doesn’t have
enough votes to stop
partisan legislation
Fight continues
over disconnecting
Mount Tabor facilities
By PETER WONG
Capital Bureau
By JIM REDDEN
The Tribune
Democrats used their larger majorities in the Oregon
Legislature, over the vocal
objections of Republicans
this past week, to pass three
high-profile bills that died in
the past two years.
Lawmakers have completed
action on bills to change the
distribution of unclaimed money from class-action settlements, link voter registration
automatically to driver records, and extend a standard
for low-carbon fuels.
All three of those bills died
in the past two years when
Democratic Sen. Betsy Johnson of Scappoose joined 14 Republicans against them. But
Democrats gained and Republicans lost two Senate seats,
and one seat in the House, as a
result of the 2014 elections.
The current Democratic majorities are 18-12 in the Senate,
and 35-25 in the House.
“It was an exercise of Democratic power,” says Jim Moore,
who teaches politics at Pacific
University. “But it was totally
expected, because Democrats
were explicit in the election
that they wanted to get more
Senate seats to pass those very
bills.”
The 2015 session began its
sixth week on March 9.
Democratic Gov. Kate Brown
has signed the first bill (HB
2700 on class-action settlements). She has said she will
sign the second — HB 2177 was
her top priority while she was
secretary of state — and has
spoken favorably about the
third (SB 324), but has not yet
pledged to sign it.
Johnson held firm to her previous opposition on all three
bills.
On the class-action bill, she
says the new law will make Oregon’s rules the nation’s most
liberal, and that it will apply to
defendants who are facing lawsuits now.
“I’m not bashing lawyers,”
she said in a commentary released after the vote on HB
2700. “I have a law degree,
which is what you practically
need these days to understand
some of the bills brought before the Legislature.”
For years, City Council
members have been insisting
that disconnecting the open
reservoirs is a done deal that
cannot be reversed.
But now the council will be
required to formally authorize
the project to be completed in a
public vote following what will
undoubtedly be a heated discussion. The hearing is scheduled for May 14 at City Hall, and

Moore says there are other
bills that the larger Democratic
majorities are likely to push
through.
One is likely to be expanded
criminal background checks
for firearms sales, although
such legislation did not come to
a vote of either chamber in the
previous two-year cycle.
Sen. Ginny Burdick, a Portland Democrat and an advo-
cate of firearms regulation,
said in February she considers
it “unfinished business” because it would have been
brought up for a vote in the
past two years except for a likely 15-15 tie that would have
doomed it in the Senate.
Democratic solidarity is not
a given for all such measures.
While there were no dissenting
Democrats on two of the three
key bills just passed, four
House Democrats joined all 25
Republicans in opposition to
the extension of the low-carbon
fuel standard.
They were Reps. Jeff Barker
of Aloha, Debbie Boone of Cannon Beach, Caddy McKeown of
Coos Bay, and Brad Witt of
Clatskanie.
Two House Republicans, Vic
Gilliam of Silverton and Julie
Parrish of West Linn, joined
Democrats in voting for the
class-action settlement changes.
But otherwise, Republican
opposition to the three bills
was solid in both chambers.
“While Republicans are
making a lot of noise about
them and trying to change the
conversation ... they are simply
raising roadblocks to see if
they can stop things,” Pacific
University’s Moore says. “But I
doubt they had any expectation
of stopping things.”
Some Republican lawmakers
acknowledged their chances of
stopping some of the bills were
bleak unless they could pick off
Democrats on a case-by-case
basis.
Long-term effects?
Republican negotiators, in
the aftermath of passage of the
low-carbon fuel standard, have
suspended their participation
in an informal work group devising a financing plan for road
repairs and other transportation projects.
They were Sens. Jeff Kruse
of Roseburg and Doug Whitsett of Klamath Falls, and Reps.
Cliff Bentz of Ontario and John
Davis of Wilsonville.
Democrats will need at least
one Republican vote for a plan
in the House, given a 60 per-
cent supermajority requirement for approval of revenueraising measures. Senate President Peter Courtney, D-Salem,
says more GOP support will be
needed to avert any petitioning
effort to force a statewide election on such a measure.
Moore says it’s still relatively
early in the session, and chances are that a transportation financing plan would move later,
given the negotiating yet to
take place over details.
Transportation financing is
one of the three goals set out
by the current Oregon Business Plan, which has the support of Oregon’s four major
business groups.
“It’s a package that Republican constituencies really want,
too,” Moore says.

Since November, the county
has held 11 public meetings on
vaping and e-cigarettes.
The products, which have
emerged in the last eight
years, are marketed as an alternative to traditional tobacco cigarettes.
But county leaders say
there is little information
about their safety, and the

is unknown.

Since last fall, Health Department staff and Kafoury
met city councils in Troutdale,
Fairview, Wood Village and

More than 300 comments
were gathered online about
the proposed regulation.
On March 5, commissioners
thanked dozens of people for
testifying, but said they had to
act now.
“We’re not stopping adults
from vaping,’’ said Commissioner Loretta Smith. “You can
still buy and vape. But what
we’re concerned about is lots
of dollars are put into advertising e-cigarettes and it’s becoming a gateway drug to tobacco. We’re trying to protect
the children. We are not trying
to take your rights away as

Added Kafoury: “We do not

Reservoirs: Preservation an issue
■ From page 9
pected to be completed at the
end of the year. A 12-milliongallon tank in Washington Park
is also planned for an estimated
$75.6 million. Disconnecting the
Mount Tabor reservoirs is expected to cost $8 million.
Reservoir supporters have
opposed all of these projects to
no avail. Council members
have consistently said the EPA
requires the Mount Tabor reservoirs to be disconnected to
safeguard against potentially
deadly contamination. Although reservoir supporters
insist no one has ever been
sickened by drinking Portland
water, the council has promised to disconnect them by December 2015.
Approving the permit is necessary to meet that schedule.
But the question facing the
council is bigger than that — it
is also about the future of the
reservoirs after they are disconnected.
The Mount Tabor reservoirs
have been designated as his-
toric landmarks, meaning they
are subject to preservation
rules. Because of that, the permit application was reviewed
by the city’s Historic Landmarks Commission (HLC), not
the Bureau of Development
Services.
The HLC approved the permit with conditions to maintain the historic appearance of
the reservoirs.
Among other things, it required they remain full of water except for 60 days a year,
when they are drained,
cleaned and refilled. And they
required the water bureau to
undertake restoration work
detailed in a 2009 draft Mount
Tabor Reservoirs Historic
Structures Report.
Both the water bureau and
the Mt. Tabor Neighborhood
Association appealed the permit approval to the City Council, as allowed by land use
rules.
The water bureau wants the
council to approve the permit.
But it opposes the requirement that reservoirs be filled
all but 60 days a year, saying
that is not technically feasible.
And the bureau opposes being
required to comply with the
2009 report, arguing it will cost
$1.5 million the council has not
approved.
The neighborhood association wants the council to deny
the permit. It filed a detailed
appeal prepared by the Dunn
Carney Allen Higgins &
Tongue law firm. The appeal
argues the water bureau’s
original application does not
meet basic legal requirements
for land use changes — especially one for such a large site.
Instead of using independent
professional planners and engineers to prepare the application, the appeal says “PWB
cobbled something together
and threw it at the Historic
Landmarks Commission.”
If the council agrees with
the neighborhood association,
the water bureau will have to
resubmit its application and go
through the HLC hearings process again, potentially threatening the December 2015 deadline for disconnecting the reservoirs.

Chastity Glass is beautiful.
Her blonde hair falls in waves, just barely grazing her
tanned shoulders. She wears glasses, sometimes, and her unlined face is rarely without a small, comforting smile. She
looks like she could be a surfer, or possibly a librarian.
What sets her apart from the scores of other blonde, tan
and happy 30-somethings from California is a poem tattooed on her right forearm:
“i am scared
of being scared…
and so,
I am not
even if i am.”
She was 27 years old, living in Hollywood and recently
dumped when she met Anthony Glass, a handsome video
editor who worked at her office. They were instantly attracted to each other, exchanging poetic and increasingly flirtatious emails and quickly falling in love. Just a few months
after they started dating, their love story, a story of what she
calls “that young 20s love when you start making plans,” was
unexpectedly and indelibly altered.

When he told her, she didn’t think twice about whether to

Back in 1971, law enforcement technology
did not include much, if anything, that could

That’s the world of policing inhabited by Bill
Bell, who served as sheriff of Wasco County from
1968 to 1971. Today, Bell is retired and lives in Wilsonville. And the tools used by current police officers are replete with technology only hinted at in
1960s cinema.

Crash critically
injures chief of
J.C. ambulance
By Holly M. Gill
News Editor
Susan Matheny/The Pioneer
Debris is strewn across U.S. Highway 97 on Aug. 8, at the scene of a crash that critically injured
Madras resident Don Heckathorn, chief of Jefferson County Emergency Medical Services.
The chief of the Jefferson County Emergency Medical
Services, Don Heckathorn, 64, was critically injured Aug.
8, when his motorcycle was struck by a car on U.S. Highway 97, at Dover Lane.
Heckathorn, who has managed JCEMS since March
2007, was northbound on the highway around 3 p.m.,
when an eastbound 1996 Cadillac, driven by Gerald Scott
Green, 36, of Prineville, failed to stop at the stop sign on
Dover Lane, and collided with Heckathorn's motorcycle.
According to Oregon State Police, which is investigating the crash, Heckathorn, who was riding a 2012 Harley
Davidson motorcycle and wearing a helmet, sustained
life-threatening injuries, and was transported by Lifeflight
to St. Charles Bend. Green was not injured.
No citations had been issued as of Monday.
The Jefferson County Sheriff's Office, JCEMS, Jefferson County Fire Department, and Oregon Department of
Transportation assisted at the scene. The highway was
closed for nearly an hour, and investigators remained at

Silver lays plans to

A
dam Silver’s impact on
the NBA in his first
year as commissioner
has been exponential.
His quick, precise handling of
the Donald Sterling controversy
brought him immediate attention and affirmation nationwide
and gave the league an even
greater credibility among its followers.
In December, Silver topped
the SportsBusiness Journal’s list
of the 50 most influential people
in sports business, ranking
ahead of ESPN’s John Skipper,
New England Patriots owner
Robert Kraft, former Major
League Baseball commissioner Bud
Selig, and NFL
commissioner
Roger Goodell.
SportsBusiness Journal is
not alone in
such appraisal.
Many believe
Silver to be the
best commissioner in all of
on
professional
sports
sports.
Silver, who
turns 53 in April, is a suburban
New York City native who received his bachelor’s degree at
Duke and law degree at the University of Chicago Law School.
He began working for the NBA
in 1992, first moving up the ladder to the presidency of the
NBA Entertainment division,
then serving eight years as deputy commissioner and chief operating officer under David
Stern.
On Friday, Silver called in
from his New York office for a

COURTESY OF NBA
Making changes in the NBA schedule is one of the major topics new commissioner Adam Silver is looking at as he moves into his second year at the top.
question-and-answer session
with the Portland Tribune.
Tribune: You observed your
first anniversary as commissioner on Feb. 1. How has the experience been for you so far?
Silver: What’s the best way to
put it — chock full? It’s been exciting. The first year went by incredibly quickly. It has been fulfilling and challenging at the
same time.
Tribune: Before we deal with
issues regarding the NBA, I’d
like to ask about your background as an athlete. How good
a basketball player were you
growing up in suburban New
York? Were you on your high
school varsity team?
Silver: I was not. I was a very
mediocre basketball player. I
didn’t hit my growth spurt until
my senior year of high school. I
was 5-9 — I’m 6-3 now. If I had
grown a little earlier, maybe I’d
have pursued basketball harder.
I was a runner. I participated in
cross country and ran the middle distances in track. But I enjoyed basketball and played a lot
of the game in people’s driveways.
Tribune: You arrived at Duke
in 1980 and were there for the
first four years of the Mike
Krzyzewski era. How involved
were you as a Duke basketball
follower as an undergrad?
Silver: I was an enthusiastic
fan. I never had to sleep outside
Cameron Indoor Stadium,
though, to get a ticket. The team
wasn’t very good in those years.
One of the great benefits, if you
loved basketball, was they reserved the best seats for students. My dorm was a short
walk from Cameron. If it was a 3
p.m. game, you walked down
there at a quarter to 3 and got a
seat. I saw some incredible ACC
basketball while I was there. Michael Jordan, James Worthy
and Sam Perkins were at North
Carolina. Ralph Sampson was at
Virginia. Growing up, I was
mainly an NBA fan. I became a
huge lover of college basketball
while I was at Duke.
Tribune: You once worked as
a legislative aide to U.S. Rep. Les
AuCoin from Oregon in 1984-85.
Silver: The summer after my
junior year at Duke, I received
an LBJ fellowship to work for
Congress. I was assigned to Les
AuCoin and worked for him for
the summer. I ended up leaving
Duke a semester early to work
for him full-time as a legislative
assistant. I spent a little more
than a year with him in Washington, helping with such things
as agriculture issues in the early
days of Oregon wineries, with
salmon hatchery and Native
American issues, and also covered health care for him. Les
and I are close to this day. We

remake Walker
Stadium as its
home field.

The Tribune
Starting in 2016, Portland
will have its own boys of summer playing in a revamped
Walker Stadium at Lents
Park.
The Great West League is
making it official at a news conference with city officials downtown today: A Portland team
will be part of its inaugural season of summer college wood-bat
baseball.
A name-the-team contest
starts online today at portlandsbaseballteam.com, says Ken
Wilson, a veteran baseball
broadcaster who lives in Portland, is one of the team owners
and is the league’s president,
“until we hire one.”
The Portland team plans to

help the city renovate Walker
Stadium, which has been in disrepair for years.
The team will have 30 home
games in a 60-game regular season scheduled to run from June
3, 2016, through early August.
Most of the games will be at
night. “Ten weeks, six games a
week,” Wilson says.
Walker Stadium will get a serious makeover this summer,
with capacity expanding from
1,000 to 1,500 and a new playing
surface that will be “close to a
major league level,” Wilson
says.
The ballpark “is going to be
really nice, but also very intimate. There will be a Fenway
Park or Wrigley Field type of
atmosphere,” Wilson says.
Home games “will be kind of
a combination of a circus, carnival and county fair. It’s all about
family, wholesome entertainment, good baseball and atmosphere. There will be great mu-
sic, games people can play, onthe-field contests for kids and
adults, a mascot, giveaways and
major league food and beverages with very affordable prices.”
The GWL will join various
summer college wood-bat
leagues around the country, including the West Coast League,
which has 12 teams in Oregon,
Washington and British Columbia, with the Corvallis Knights
the closest to Portland. Wilson
was the WCL’s first president
and held that position for five
years (2008-13).
The players, all of whom must
have college eligibility, aren’t
paid in summer wood-bat baseball, but they get exposure and
experience. Each GWL team
will have a 25-man active roster.
Where the players come from
will “depend a lot on the (threeman) coaching staff and where
their contacts are.” Wilson says
he hopes to name the field staff
in June or July
The league also has placed
franchises in Chico and Lodi,
Calif., with plans to have at least
six teams total in 2016.

Tett back in game with Thunder
Former UO linebacker
returns for Arena
team’s second season
By STEPHEN ALEXANDER
The Tribune
COURTESY OF PORTLAND THUNDER
Brandon Tett, former University of Oregon linebacker, returns to the
Portland Thunder for its second season of Arena Football League play.
Football disappeared from
Brandon Tett’s life twice in
the previous decade. The
game never left his soul,
though.
“Football hasn’t necessarily
kept me out of trouble, but it’s
kind of been a guide for me my
whole life,” he says. “I grew up
without a father, but I had a lot of
good father figures while playing
football in high school and college.”
The latest stop on the 6-1,
270-pounder’s football odyssey
brought him to the Portland
Thunder, where he is a crucial
element to the second-year Arena Football League team as its
middle linebacker.
“If we had 24 of him, we
wouldn’t lose a game,” Thunder
coach Mike Hohensee says. “He’s
got a tremendous attitude, he’s
strong, he’s a great athlete and
he plays extremely physical. He’s
the reason we’re going to be so
effective at the ends. If he gets a
push up the middle and makes
the quarterback squirt to the
outside, we have athletes to run
down any of the quarterbacks in
this league.”
Tett, 27, grew up in Gresham
and learned to work for everything he got. He knocked on
neighbors’ doors as a 10-year-old,
asking if he could mow their
lawns for a few bucks. “If I wanted money, I had to go earn it. I
would always do side work,” he
says.
After playing for Barlow High,
Tett went the junior college
route at Arizona Western Community College. He spent two
years there, but then “all the
coaches got fired and all the film
was gone. Me and a lot of the
other guys kind of got stuck in
the water.”
Two years went by before Tett
was able to get back on the gridiron. But he had kept himself
ready.
“I’ve spent so much time as a
student of the weight room, trying to learn how to work out, how
to make yourself stronger, how
to gain size through your lifting
and through your diet,” Tett
says. “I always tell younger guys
that lifting is one of the most tedious things you will ever do. It’s
such a slow process.”
Tett got his opportunity to
play football again in 2010, when
he walked on at Oregon. He set a
school record with a bench press
of 540 pounds, breaking the mark
of 505 set by future NFL players
Igor Olshansky and Haloti Ngata.
Tett played two games with
the Ducks, making one tackle.
The biggest thing he learned under then-coach Chip Kelly was
work ethic.
“Oregon was an awesome experience, because it was so
hard,” he says. “Physically hard.
The practices and how they did
things were so hard. It gave me a
different mentality. It’s made me
work harder in the offseason and
in practice.”
After 2010, Tett had used up

The Portland Tribune Tuesday, March 10, 2015
Tribune: Are you aware the
NBA All-Star Game was awarded to Portland in the 1980s, only
to have it taken back by a policy
change — moving toward bigger markets? Then when the
policy was reversed again, the
city was skipped.
Silver: I was not aware of
that. I’ve not heard that story.
There’s no policy in place now
regarding size of markets.
Tribune: The Trail Blazers
initially submitted a bid to host
the 2017 or ‘18 All-Star Game.
Because of an impending Convention Center hotel project
that has gained approval for
funding by Metro, the club has
pushed that back, with hopes of
landing the game in 2019 or ‘20.
Even without a headquarters
hotel, though, there are dozens
of top-quality hotels and thousands of hotel rooms within
short drives and on the MAX
line to the Moda Center. What
are Portland’s chances of gaining a bid in the near future, given that Portland is one of five
current franchise cities (also Toronto, Sacramento, Memphis
and Oklahoma City) to have
never hosted?
Silver: We’re not against trying to cull together lots of rooms
from top-notch smaller hotels to
stretch to make it work in Portland. We want the All-Star
Game to be hosted by cities
where we’ve never been before.
Tribune: You received a tremendous amount of positive
publicity and attention for your
swift decision regarding Donald
Sterling. Does it surprise you
that you got virtually universal
support on the issue? And have
you had any second thoughts at
all about your decision?
Silver: It did surprise me initially how much attention the
league and I received for the
Sterling affair. No, I have not
had any second thoughts about
what we did.
Tribune: The Western Conference has been stronger than
the East for many years, and
you have talked about the possibility of eliminating divisions or
conference affiliation when
seeding for playoffs. How would
that work?
COURTESY OF NBA
NBA Commissioner Adam Silver says he has proposed a harder salary
cap in part because he sees a clear correlation between team payroll
and team success.
Silver: It’s something we’re in
the early stages of looking at.
There are teams, fans, media on
both sides of the issues. There’s
an acknowledgement by everyone that there is no perfect solution. Frankly, it’s not just a playoff issue, it’s also a health issue
for the players. What happens
when Portland plays Miami in
the first round? If you seed
teams from one to 16 based on
record, we would no longer play
an unbalanced schedule. It
would require a wholesale
change in the schedule, which
potentially would require more
travel. That works against trying to provide maximum rest for
our players over a long season.
It’s a complex issue. I’m openminded at taking a fresh look at
it. We’re beginning that process
now. If there were an obvious
solution, David would have implemented it years ago.
teams must play four games in
five nights. We’re going to take
a closer look at the distance
teams are traveling to get to
games, how far they’re flying,
how many time zones they’re
crossing and so on.
Tribune: The schedule was
changed this year to provide a
longer break around All-Star
weekend in deference to players’ health. You have talked
about lengthening the schedule
to cut down on back-to-back
games or four games in five
nights. Are those things feasible?
Silver: If we were to reduce
the number of preseason games,
it would make sense to start the
season a little earlier and potentially go a little bit later with the
regular season. Some owners
have asked us to look into moving back the Finals and playing
into July. That’s something we
need to talk about with our TV
partners. I’m not sure it makes
sense, but we’re willing to look
at it. (The longer All-Star break)
allows us to make a dramatic
impact on the number of times
Tribune: If a late call is determined to be wrong that affected
the outcome of the game, what
can be done about it?
Silver: There are provisions
in our constitution for challenges of games, but they’re only
based on misapplication of
rules, not on judgment of calls.
(In the latter case), just like a
player who misses a shot,
there’s generally nothing that
can be done. Even so, over time
with transparency, the hope is
our officials will be getting better because of this. That’s the
best we can hope for.
Tribune: The league recently
made the decision to release supervisor assessments of lategame calls and noncalls by referees in close games. Why?
Silver: To increase transparency. We have the best officials
in the world, but they do make
mistakes. We want to be forthcoming with our fans and with
the media and with our teams. It
will show fans the vast majority
of calls are right, and we think,
ultimately, the officials will improve based on making sure everyone is seeing precisely which
calls are right and which are
wrong.
Tribune: You support the
idea of sports betting on the
NBA. Are you at all concerned
that criminal elements could
lead to point shaving or throwing games or things of that nature?
was fascinating to me it got almost no attention. That goes
to show that, while I understand what the notion of NASCAR-like uniform conjures in
fans, there is a tasteful way to
have relatively small branding
added to the jerseys that
would provide additional value
to our sponsors and the
league.
Tribune: You’d like to raise
the minimum player age from 19
to 20. The union says it wants
the age moved back to 18. What
do you foresee happening when
the next CBA is negotiated in
2017?
Silver: It’s too early to say.
I’ve made my position clear for
some time. There is new leadership in the union. I’m reading
what it is they’ve been saying
about the issue. When we sit
down at the table to negotiate,
it’ll be on the agenda.
Tribune: You have proposed
a harder salary cap. Why is
that necessary?
Silver: We proposed it during the last CBA round because
we think it creates more parity
around the league. No doubt,
there’s a correlation between
payroll and success on the
floor. For us, the ultimate goal
is to have a 30-team league in
which teams win championships based on management
and not on the the size of their
market or the owner’s willingness to lose money in order to
win. We look at the NFL system
with a hard cap; they have the
best parity in all sports, and an
“Any Given Sunday” notion.
Granted, we’re a very different
sport, because a superstar
player who plays virtually the
entire game can have a far
greater impact on a game than
in the NFL. But with a harder
cap, we can create more parity
throughout the league. We’ve
done that to an extent with provisions put into place in the
new CBA, with a higher luxury
tax and additional limitations
on which players you can sign.
Tribune: As an attorney,
you’re the perfect person to
ask this question: What prevents an athlete from filing
suit, charging that the NFL or
NBA hinders the right to make
a living by setting an age limit?
Silver: There are age limits
in baseball and hockey, too;
they’re just set at (lower) ages.
The legal response is because
those age limits are collectively bargained, they are protected. People often ask why the
NBA doesn’t raise its limit to
20. We don’t have the unilateral right to lower it or raise it.
The 19-year-old limit is the result of the last CBA.
Tribune: Is there an inevitability of having ads on jerseys?
When will it happen?
Silver: During the slam
dunk competition on Saturday
night of All-Star Weekend, all
the contestants were wearing
a Sprite logo on their jersey. It
Tribune: Do you like the
game the way it is? Is there
anything else you think that
needs to be changed, such as
raising of the basket to 11 feet,
or widening the court?
Silver: I love the game the
way it is right now.

were just emailing back and
forth yesterday.
Silver: I’m always concerned
about that. Making it legal with
transparency and making it a
regulated industry will decrease
the likelihood of a scandal involving betting on our games,
and allow us and the government to monitor betting as it’s
done in Las Vegas in a way we
can’t right now, when it’s almost
exclusively underground.

the five-year clock players at Division I schools have to play
sports once they step onto a campus. He petitioned the NCAA for
an additional year. Worried that
he wouldn’t be allowed back, he
transferred to Division II Central
Missouri, where he was able to
play one final year.
“College, for me, was tough,”
Tett says. “I never stayed at one
school for very long. So I never
felt at home.”
After the 2011 season, Tett began working construction. The
years drifted by.
“I still had the desire to play,”
Tett says. “I just didn’t know
what opportunity God was going
to open up.”
Last year, while Tett was living in Canada with his grandmother, he got a call from his
girlfriend, Lindsay Johanason,
that brought him back to the
sport. Johanason, who was living
in Portland, told Tett that the expansion Thunder were holding
an open tryout.
Tett arrived 10 days after the
start of camp, but he impressed
the coaches and made the squad.
After battling through injuries,
he finished 2014 with nine tackles and two sacks.
His biggest moment came on
July 26 against the Spokane
Shock. During the break between the third and fourth quarters, Johanason came onto the
field. She was blindfolded and
walked the length of the field to
win a Standard TV & Appliance
beverage center. She then took
off the blindfold and found Tett
standing before her with roses.
He got down on one knee, presented her with a ring and asked
her to marry him. She gave the
response Tett was dying to hear:
“Yes.”
After the 2014 season, Tett
worked more construction to pay
the bills, while also training hard
for the 2015 Thunder season,
which starts Friday, March 27, at
home against the Los Angeles
KISS.
“In the offseason, it was tough
because I’d run in the morning at
6 a.m. and then have to go to
work and then go to the gym and
lift after that,” he says. “During
the season, I get paid enough to
make ends meet. Depending on
how the season goes, though,
and how my body feels, I might
try to do some things on the
side.”
Tett’s main focus for the next
few months, though, will be on
football.
“This has been the first time
since high school that I’ve felt
meshed with the team,” he says.
“Now I have more of a voice and
more of a position of leadership.”
The Thunder are looking at
Tett not only as a linebacker but
also as an occasional fullback.
“He’s an emergency guy,” Hohensee says. “We may have him
play a little at the goal line. But
we like all of the guys to understand the other side of the football.”
It helps to work with both
units. “I’m just trying to be as
dynamic as I can,” he says.
Whatever happens, Tett is beyond grateful to have this opportunity to play more football.
“I ultimately want to win a
championship,” Tett says. “And,
if the Lord provides, move on to
another level. Football has kept
me on a path. Football has saved
my life.”

Ali is a 7 year old female
cat. She loves children, riding in cars, and sitting on

is a very calm cat that

from a family with children
and makes a great pet.

to meet this nice family cat
by calling 503.320.6079.
Senior Manx female Isis
was abandoned when her
owner moved away so she
has had a rough life for a
10+ year old but you
wouldn’t know it by her loving disposition.
She’s super friendly towards people
and loves to snuggle. She
doesn’t jump hardly at all
because her back legs
have a touch of arthritis,
but she is happy to jump
up into your lap for a cuddle and some purrs! She
sleeps and relaxes a lot,
but she does still enjoy a
bit of play time with a soft
fuzzy toy. She needs a
special prescription diet of
kidney-friendly food and
she enjoys both the dry
and wet food and eats the
food with no problem.
She’s currently 8 and a half
pounds as Manx are generally small kitties. She is
an inside only cat and she
always uses her litter box.
She’d do best in a low key
household where she can
get plenty of love. Can you
give her a stable and loving forever home?

Suz:
Hi, I’m Suz, the beautiful
smoke and white colored
DSH kitty. My fur is very
soft and, compared to my
size, so is my purr! The
markings on my face almost make me look like I’m
wearing a mask – maybe I
can be your very own Supercat? I adore attention
and getting pets and hanging out with people. Right
now, I prefer to be a solo
cat, so I’m looking for a
home where I can be the
queen. Come visit me at

Tori is a beautiful mature
dark tabby with green eyes
& white socks. She loves
to sleep and cuddle up in
your lap. She is quiet and
friendly, but at her age prefers to be an only cat. She
is a medium haired/med

a lovely companion for the
right person. She is hyperthyroid, but once we replaced her regular food
with prescription food, her
conditioned was easily
managed.
She
is
declawed, neutered, microchipped and current on
shots. For additional information call Cat’s Cradle

Racism and
discrimination
in health care
T
he highly influential
New England Journal
of Medicine published
a series of perspectives
on racial bias in health care. Dr.
Mary Bassett, New York City’s
health commissioner, suggested
that the medical community
should not only do more to improve the health of black patients but also play an active
role in combating racism.
There is no question that the
health of blacks is significantly
worse than the health of whites.
The average life expectancy of
blacks is much lower than that
of whites, which is 77.9 years.
The life expectancy of black
males is 69 years, which is lower
than life expectancy in Cuba,
Iran and Syria.
True, black men are six times
likelier to be injured or die from
violence than any other ethnic
group. But heart disease, strokes
and cancer are also more common and more serious in blacks.
Lung cancer is the leading
cause of cancer deaths for black
people, followed by prostate cancer in men and breast cancer in
women. Black men have the
highest rate of prostate cancer
and death in the world — more
than twice the rate for whites.
Black women are less likely
than white women to develop
breast cancer but are likelier to
die from the disease.
There is no question that increased awareness of this problem is having an effect. In the
past 15 years, the risk of cancer
has decreased by about 2 percent per year in blacks, but the
risk of death remains 30 percent
higher.
In 2002, the Institute of Medicine published a report titled
“Unequal Treatment: Confronting Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Health Care,” which concluded that racial discrimination
within health care settings contributes to poor medical care for
many blacks and other minorities. Blacks are less likely than
whites to be screened for disease, to have preventive measures to reduce disease risk, to
receive counseling on the importance of weight control and exercise, and to receive therapy for
existing diseases. The prevalence of overworked health care
providers in economically dis-

The new puberty: too fast, too soon
I
DavidLipschitz
lifelong HEALTH
tressed neighborhoods and minorities having inadequate or no
insurance were also cited as factors leading to disparities in
evaluation and treatment of disease. But sadly, poor care is also
more prevalent when black people’s income, age, diagnoses and
insurance are the same as those
of whites.
On Dec. 14, 2014, at 2 p.m.,
thousands of medical students
from 70 medical schools held
“die-ins.” The campaign, called
“White Coats for Black Lives,”
was the largest protest at medical schools since the Vietnam
War. Students have produced a
call to action that addresses discrimination and racism in their
training before and after graduation from medical school.
The closer we look the more
obvious it becomes that racism
— though perhaps it’s subtler
and less talked about than before — is alive and well in America. The causes are multifactorial and include generations of
discrimination, low socio-economic status, inadequate access
to a decent education, little opportunity to truly experience the
American dream, lack of access
to health care and a pervading
suspicion of the predominantly
white medical community.
No matter your political persuasion, the poor health among
the disadvantaged in general
and among the black community in particular is a national and
international scandal. And we
are all to blame. Our elected officials are paralyzed when it
comes to progress, and if anything, they are making it harder
rather than easier for black enfranchisement and advancement. And the plight of rural
communities that are composed
of minorities receives little attention, and their future seems
mostly hopeless.
f it seems like today’s kids
are growing up fast, they
probably are — especially if
they are girls.
Just a generation ago, fewer
than 5 percent of girls started
puberty before the age of 8. Today that percentage has more
than doubled.
These findings come from
Louise Greenspan, MD, a pediatric endocrinologist at Kaiser Permanente in San
Francisco. Together with a
team of researchers, Dr.
Family
Greenspan has medicine
been following
444 girls from
the San Francisco Bay Area
since 2005, when the girls were 6
to 8 years old.
Her research showed that
girls were entering puberty earlier than previously thought —
15 percent at age 7 and 27 percent by age 8.
Rowena
Manalo
What are the concerns?
If you are a parent of a young
girl, why should you pay attention to this trend? Early puberty
is not just a physical transformation. It’s a psychological transfor-
mation, too.
For an 8-year-old, handling
the changes that come with puberty is far more difficult than
for a 13-year-old.
And when girls enter puberty
at an earlier age, there are issues — beyond awkward social
situations.
Findings show that early puberty puts girls at a higher risk
for behavior problems and longterm health challenges, including obesity, depression, eating
disorders and even cancer.
What are the causes?
The research uncovered by
Dr. Greenspan has identified
several surprising triggers for
early puberty. They include obesity or excess body fat and exposure to hormone-mimicking
chemicals. Emotional stress in a
girl’s home or family life — including unstable homes, socioeconomic troubles or being exposed to violence — can also be
a trigger.
What can you do?
The most powerful thing you
can do is to educate yourself on
factors that contribute to early
puberty. Take a close look at
your daily life and interactions
with your kids. And then try
these steps:
n Take precautions against
excessive exposure to chemicals.
tain a healthy weight. Fat tissue
is a potent hormonal organ and
converts other hormones into
estrogen and estrogen-like substances. The more fat you have,
the higher the estrogen levels,
and that higher estrogen level
leads to early puberty. And
keep them moving. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends 60 minutes a day of
exercise.
n Consider adding soy to
your girl’s diet. Foods like edamame or tofu can train the
body to resist estrogen and may
lead to later puberty.

additional value to the CCO’s efforts in behavioral health integration.
Bennington-Davis currently
serves on Health Share’s Quality Management Council and is
also chair-elect of the Oregon
Health Authority’s statewide
Metrics and Scoring Committee. At Cascadia, she has been
heavily involved in health reform as it pertains to mental
health, including implementing
the first Forensic Assertive
Community Treatment program in Multnomah County, a
Health Share-funded effort.
“I am looking forward, as a
member of Health Share’s leadership, to further the work already begun in the integration
of primary care and wellness into mental health and addictions
services,” said Bennington-Davis. “This is an opportunity to
expand on the work we’ve
achieved at Cascadia and create
a regionally integrated patientcentered system to improve the
health of our members and of
our community.”
Since 2006, Bennington-Davis
has served as the Chief Medical
Officer and, since 2008, also
Chief Operating Officer for Cascadia Behavioral Healthcare. In
her role, she provided: leadership for mental health and addictions medical services, including innovative programs
like Project Respond, a mobile
mental-health crisis response
team that provides crisis intervention 24 hours a day, seven
days a week; a seven-day a
week walk-in mental health crisis clinic; and Crisis Respite,
which serves as a short-term
step down or alternative to the
hospital. With experience in
both finance and health care,
she also helped Cascadia stabilize its finances and operations,
while improving quality, growing substantially, and successfully shifting to new payment
environments.
Prior to Cascadia, Bennington-Davis served as Psychiatry
Medical Director for a regional
medical center (Salem Hospital), as well as hospital Chief of
Staff. She led development of a
cultural change model for implementation of trauma-sensitive services with the subsequent elimination of seclusion

An adventurous dog and a wonderful view
Jonathan House, a photographer for Pamplin Media Group, often takes his dog, Cooper, on big hikes with him. (His story has been documented in the
pages of PMG publications). And, House takes photos. Recently he may have outdone himself, with Cooper taking in some epic scenery as unseasonably
warm weather allowed an early-season hike in the Cascade Mountains. Here, Cooper looks south from Lookout Mountain (on the east side of Mount Hood)
to Mount Jefferson, Mount Washington, the Three Sisters, Broken Top and Mount McLoughlin — the latter peak some 200 miles away.

Abdul-Jabbar’s short story
Former NBA great Kareem
Abdul-Jabbar appeared at
Powell’s Books at Cedar Hills
in Beaverton recently to promote his new book, “Stealing
the Game,” the second in the
“Streetball Crew” series for
young adults that focuses on
teamwork, friendship, secrets
and supporting loved ones.
Abdul-Jabbar collaborated
with Raymond Obstfeld on the
book, and he wrote much
about building self-esteem and
celebrating individuality.
“Kids are our future,” he
tells freelance journalist Nicole DeCosta. “If we don’t do a
good job with them, we’re not
going to have very much of
our country left. We’ve got to
raise our kids the right way
and make sure they understand our values and keep
those values growing and
evolving.”
“Champs”
The documentary goes behind the scenes of the boxing
world, giving a look at the gritty
world as the fighters pursue
their dreams. Director Bert Marcus explores a broader theme of
struggling to overcome life’s

Not many professional tree climbers are better than Milwaukie’s
Robert Bundy, 38. He finished fifth at last year’s International Tree
Climbing Championships, which judge climbers on their maneuvers and
efficiency in performing work-related tree care tasks.
and safely maneuver in a tree
while efficiently performing
work-related tree care tasks.
Bundy says the competitions
are not like timber sports you
might see on television, with
its speed climbing and ax
throwing and chopping and
log rolling.
“It’s not anything like that,”
he says. “It’s little impact on
the trees as possible, using
ropes and lines and trees and
going over canopy. You’re taking care of trees for a trade,
so it’s not like you’re climbing
with spikes and pole axes.”

folks who wanted to see the first
movies at the Hollywood Theatre on its new 70mm projection.
The March 21-22 showings of
Stanley Kubrick’s “2001: A Space
Odyssey” have sold out. Hollywood getting 70mm is a big deal
— the film format was all the
rage in the 1960s and ‘70s, highlighted by such film as “Lawrence of Arabia” and “2001,” and
it offers a greater aspect of ratio
and higher resolution than
35mm. The Hollywood will be

Bits&
Pieces:
Scott Forrest of New Zealand won the men’s competition last year; Jared Abrojena
of Antioch, Calif., finished the
highest among U.S. competitors, third.
Bundy represents the Pacific Northwest. He remembers
his first competition about 10
years ago.
“I signed up and had no
idea what I was doing. I didn’t
do super my first time
through,” he says. “The next
year, I entered the Oregon
competition and won.
“Competitions are a lot of
fun — just likeminded people
all doing a field day sort of
event. I really enjoy the competition; I’ve always been into
sports more or less,” he says.
“It nice to have a job that people are so into that they’ll go
to competitions and compete
in activities that we do every
day. They talk about us being
industrial athletes. It’s physical labor.”
Bundy placed third in
throwline last year.
“I try to stay fairly fit, but a
lot of the younger guys can
get me in the speed events —
the footlock and speed climb,”
he says. “In work climb,
you’ve got gravity on your
side, because you’re going
down and you plan your own
route. And aerial rescue is not
too difficult. I can catch up
some points in those events.”
It’s pretty exciting to compete, he adds.
“Normally I’m driving
truck, running the chipper or
climbing a tree for work,”
says Bundy, an ISA certified
arborist.

Arborist
aims to be
world’s best
tree climber
Robert Bundy,
training for the
upcoming
International
Tree Climbing
Championships
in Florida,
practices on
trees in his
backyard in
Milwaukie.
STORY BY
JASON VONDERSMITH
R
obert Bundy and his family
bought a house a few years ago in
Milwaukie, and he made sure the
property had the right kind of
trees — not for beauty purposes, necessarily, but for climbing.
Bundy climbs trees for a living, as an arborist working for Peacock Tree Preservation, based in Multnomah Village, and he
climbs trees for a sport as one of the
world’s best professional tree climbers.
He’ll compete for the third time in the International Tree Climbing Championships,
March 21 and 22 at Rowlett Park in Tampa,
Fla., and he aims to make the masters
challenge competition, the top four, and
maybe earn the title of the world’s best
tree climber.
So, most days you can find Bundy climbing and pulling his way up trees in his
backyard to practice.
“Before we bought our house I was going into parks and stuff and practicing at
work,” he says. “It’s hard to fit in any real
dedicated practice time. They don’t allow
tree climbing in public parks without a
permit — you have to show you have insurance — so it’s cost-prohibitive.
“It’s a shame because tree climbing
would attract a lot of people. It’s less intense than rock climbing. It’s more leisure,
a more technique-driven sport with less

Bundy, a 38-year-old from suburban
Atlanta, took up working in trees after
he moved to Portland about 12 years
ago. He wasn’t the kid you couldn’t get
out of the trees, staying until dark and
missing dinner. He took up rock climbing as an adult, but made the transition
into tree climbing after taking up his
occupation, and “I’ve always loved
plants.”
The International Society of Arboriculture puts on the International Tree
