A new study suggests our closest, extinct human relatives took the time to bury their dead asmuch as 50,000 years ago. The findings, published in the journal PNAS,add to a picture of Neanderthals as being more culturally sophisticated than previously believed. "For years there was ahuge debate amonganthropologists about how complex the Neanderthals' thoughts actually were," said William Rendu, leadauthor of the study and aresearcher at the Center for International Research in the Humanities and Social Sciences in New York. "We knewthe Neanderthal was agood tool maker, but there was nothing that linked themto art or symbolic thought." The idea that Neanderthals deliberately buried their dead was first floated back in1908. In August of thatyear the remains of a male Neanderthal were discovered in asmall cave in the town of LaChapelleaux-Saints in southwestern France. Hewasfound lying in a pit that looked as if it

had been dugdeliberately, leading researchers to suggest that intentional burials may havebeen part of Neanderthal culture. Since then, asmany as40 potential Neanderthal burial sites have beendiscovered across a wideswath of the world ranging from southeast Spain to Mongolia. — Los Angeles Times

BasX, which will manufacture portable surgical suites and power storage facilities, expects to purchase the old Wal-Mart property on the southend of Redmond. When the business is up and running in 2015, its owners sayit will employ 60 workers and pay them at least 150 percent of the average wage in the county, or more than $54,000 per

year. BasX will pay property taxes on the land and building as they're currently assessed, this year more than $132,800 before the discount for full payment up front. What it will avoid is property taxes on improvements it makes to the building and property. The city of Redmond, the Redmond School District and any other tax district in which the property

lies will continue to receive about what they get today. BasX, meanwhile, expects the break will save it about $257,000 in taxes over the five-year period the exemption is in place— orlessthan $52,000 annually in additional taxes. Were improvements to the property not made, tax bills would stay flat and the county would collect no additional revenues in any event. At the same time, new BasX jobs should pump more than $3 million intothe county each year, money that will be spent on groceries, clothing, real estate and so on. And because BasX is required to pay 150 percent of the average wage, that average will rise a bit. Enterprisezones are valuable tools in attracting new businessthink Facebook and Apple near Prineville — to areas in need of good jobs.That's been true for Crook County; it's equally true of the BasX deal in Deschutes County.

Grocers' liquorproposal includes anoddwrinkle

regon grocers say they want to get state government out of the liquor business. Their proposal, though, would still prohibit liquor sales in most stores of less than 10,000 square feet. We agree it's time for Oregon to quit the small club of 18 states where the government still controls liquor sales, but why the 10,000-square-foot limit'? A spokesman cites public safety concerns about convenience store sales, but the limit surely benefits the larger stores that are bankrolling the petition effort. The Northwest Grocery Association this week launched its long-expected effort to privatize liquor sales by filing several versions of a ballot initiative. The group is expected to settle on one version before seeking to get it on the ballot in November 2014. Lauren Johnson, chief operating officer of Bend's Newport Avenue Market, is one of the two chief petitioners. In a media statement, she said the state "should be focused on enforcement of liquor laws, not sales, marketing and distribution of alcohol." Lynn Gust from Fred Meyer is the other petitioner. The plan would end the state monopoly and allow hard liquor sales in larger stores that already

sell beer and wine, as well as some smaller boutique shops and current liquor stores. The state would continue to control licensing and enforce state law, and the plan depends on maintaining state revenue from liquor sales. It proposes increasing certain fines to provide support for local public safety programs. Petitioners claim taxpayers would save $28 million a year by closing the state's warehouse and store system. Retail prices would be set by the marketplace, with no guarantees about whether they would fall, climb or stay the same. The Oregon Liquor Control Commission, meanwhile, is working on it s ow n m odernization program, which would maintain the state distribution system but allow sales in grocery stores. It expects to ask the Legislature to approve changes in the February 2014 session. The OLCC argues the grocers' approach would endanger state revenues and the craft distilling industry. It's time to get the state out of liquor sales, in our view, but we don't buy the 10,000-square-foot limit unless the grocers can provide a convincingcase for public safety. Allowing competition means all competition, not just protecting the interests of larger, established stores.

The National Association of Realtors delivers today its latest report on sales of previously occupied U.S. homes. Economists are projecting that sales slowed slightly in November from a month earlier to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 5.06 million last month from 5.12 million in October. Higher mortgage rates and a limited supply of houses on the market have helped reduce the pace of home sales this fall.

The Federal Reserve's decision to begin closing the spigot on its economic stimulus sent stocks sharply higher on Wednesday. Investors had been anxious for months about whether the economy was strong enough to grow without the Fed. But in announcing its decision, the central bank cited a stronger job market and improving economy.

The program has encouraged borrowing and lending, but also led investors to shift money into stocks. Since the first round of bond buying at the end of 2008, stocks have soared about 124 percent.

Cy th e C y n ic's l e ast-favorite h olding is a d o ubleton K-Q. I t r eminds hi m o f ma r r i age, a n institution he distrusts. (Cy, who has been there, says that t h e b e st a rgument a qainst m a r riage i s husband vs. wife.) When I watched today's deal, Cy was West and groaned when he picked up his hand. North opened one club, East overcalled one spade and North-South proceeded to bid 3NT. The Cynic led the eight of spades, and East did well to play the ten, keeping communication. I f South took the queen, the defense could run the spades when Cy won a club trick.

The opponents pass. What do you say? A NSWER: T h i s p r o blem i s awkward. A jump to t hree clubs would suggest a six-card suit with 16 or 17 high-card points and would be the choice of many players. I might bid three clubs myself, but partner would doubtless expect a better club suit. An option I favor is a raise to three hearts despite the lack of a fourth heart.

OAQ Seeing nothing better to do — a shift to either red suit was unlikely to help — East continued with the king, ace and a fourth spade. Giving me a look of relief, Cy filed for a divorce. He pitched his king of clubs and then his queen. South couldn't set up the clubs without losing to East's jack, so the result was down one. If Cy holds on to his club marriage, South can maneuver tomake 3NT. Well done, Cy.

It could be dinner out or catching up on the phone with a friend. Unplug:Those e-mails can wait. So can the Facebook posts, Tweets andPinterest plugs.

Relax:Bemis said that research indicates that the busier our lives get, the more likely weare to feel the Sunday blues. "Taking extra time to rest or engage in quieter activities can lead to rejuvenation," she said.

Show some gratitstfe: Think about, or even make a list of, things you aregrateful for. Talk with friends or loved onesfor whom you're especially appreciative. Think in thepresent: If you're obsessing over the upcoming workweek or something from the past, snap back into the moment. "It's impossible to fully enjoy whatever youare doing in any given moment," Bemis said, "if your mind is jumping ahead to the future or back to the past." Assess yourself:Figure out if there's a certain time or trigger when thedoldrums set in, then consider changing your Sunday routine to avoid that trigger. Consider assessing the bigger picture. Are you dissatisfied with part of your life? Whether it's your job, your relationship, your health, addressit. Get help:Talk to friends or loved ones if you continue to bebummed out.

QUEsmoN: Ihad a hysterectomy a few years ago, and just haven't felt the same since. I had my estrogen level checked and it was okay. Could my hormones still be out of balance? ANswER: A r e c ent s t u dy f r o m th e prestigious B r igham a n d Wo m en's Mary Huntsman, HosPital in B oston tested the use of t estosterone with w o men w h o h a d undergone hysterectomy with or without the removal of the ovaries, and later had low testosterone levels. All the women received estrogen replacement, but it was the women who also received testosterone replacement who saw a boost in sexual function, lean body mass, and muscle strength. These changes can translate into a boost in the bedroom, and during workouts. So if a women has had a hysterectomy, and now is experiencing physical and sexual changes, she may be experiencing the effects of low hormones. Easily obtained blood tests can be done to check hormone levels and identify those women whose levels are low. This information is then used to create a personalized regimen for her.

QUESTtON: I've had chronic problems with indigestion and heartburn, that just seems to be getting worse lately. I've tried heartburn medications which help sometimes, but what can I do to prevent this problem?

ANSWER: Holiday time and stress in our culture does not lend itself to good eating and digestion habits. Many ads on TV actually encourage us to "eat on the go." From a naturoPathic PersPective, heartburn may be a PhysiuiGu clue to not enough hydrochloric acid (HCI) in the stomach, as opposed to too much. This leaves food undigested in the stomach, leading to heartburn or GERD (rcflux). A simple trial of HCI can help evaluate this. Meanwhile, here are some simple rules for eating: sit down and focus on eating without distractions, chew your food well, don't drink water while eating (especially ice water, which dilutes the gastric acid), don't exercise or lay down after eating, don't eat late in the evening.

QUEsrtoN:I am a 46 year old woman and I am starting to see wrinkles and overall signs of aging. What can I do to look younger? ANswER: Aging is an inevitable process but there are steps we can take to age "gracefully." First and foremost is the daily use of sunscreen. The sun is responsible for most of the common signs of aging. Using anSPF 30 sunscreen every Mark Hall, day can prevent age spots, mottled skin, wrinkles M.D. and, most importantly, skin cancer. A good skin care product is an easy way to improve the tone and texture of the skin, while also minimizing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. At Central Oregon Dermatology, we carry Epionce, which is an excellent choice for all skin types. For wrinkles at the brow, forehead and around the eyes, Botox is the gold standard and has been used safely for over 20 years. Botox is an injectable neurotoxin that relaxes the muscles that cause the wrinkles and typically provides benefits for around 4 months. For wrinkles and volume loss of the lower face, fillers such as Radiesse or Juvederm are beneficial. Resurfacing lasers like the DOT laser are used for more generalized or deeper wrinkles. This is an excellent choice and may reduce the overall signs of aging by up to 5 years. Lastly, for hard to treat fatty bulges, CoolSculpting is a newFDA approved device to non-surgically "freeze away" the fat. It is done with no incisions and is well tolerated, while providing amazing results. I would encourage you to consult with your dermatologist to discuss what options may be best for you.

QUEsrioN:I hurt my back. I am busy trying to do my exercises and juggle work and familybut the extra stress of pain and sleeplessness is making me feel even worse. Any suggestions? ANswER:Stress can significantly influence your perception of pain and your ability to heal. We live in a world where chronic states of stress Allison Surau are the norm and that "one more thing" of an injury, can be the final straw. Prolonged stress can also impair your immune system, interrupt your sleep, and interfere with healing. Here are some simple things you can do: I. BREATHE. Take 5 full breaths 5 times a day. 2. Memorize and recite to yourself a quote, poem or scripture that provides to the busy, worrying mind. 3. Distract yourself with what is good in this "NOW" moment. Let the pain remind you to shift your focus to what you are grateful for: your children, friends, living in Bend, hot water, food on the table, memories of favorite places, etc. 4. Find a good PT who can teach you how bestto m anageand heal your back injury. There are countless ways to manage stress but it needs to be a priority.

QtiEsrroN:What treatments are available for Accidental Bowel Leakage?

ANSwER:Accidental Bowel Leakage (ABL) also known as Fecal Incontinence is not a part of the aging process. Many common causes include inappropriate diet, frequent d iarrhea/constipation or d amage to t h e M.D., FACSS u reCtum Or SurrOunding nerVeS. ABL iS a

complex medical issue and there are a variety of therapy options available to help. Typically, treatment begins with conservative therapy. Dietary changes such as addingfiber or avoiding coffee,tea,and chocolate can help regulate the digestive tract. Medications can be taken to assist in regulating bowel movements. There are also bowel training exercises such as biofeedback as well as Kegel or pelvic floor exercises that may be tried. If conservative therapy is mildly effective or ineffective, there is now a bulking agent called Solesta that can be injected into the anal walls to thicken the tissues and prevent stool from passing through unintentionally. This is a painless procedure that can be done in the office without anesthesia. It is a safe option to surgical intervention. Surgery should be reserved for patients with ABL when other conservative treatments have failed. Fecal Incontinence is not a natural part of life. Don't let ABL control your life. Call your doctor today to ask about treatment.

WHY SUGAR HURTS QtizsrioNIWhy is sugar so bad for your teeth? ANswER: Sugar is bad for your teeth because it raises the plaque, that adheres to your teeth, to a high acidic level. The acid begins to erode the enamel and promotes the start of a cavity. Depending on a variety of factors, the plaque can stay acidic for up to an hour. Consuming Carlo ALTedund sugary products at regular intervals during the day can keep your teeth under stress for most of the day. So, one thing to bear in mind, as you go through your day, is the frequency with which you consume sugar. Satisfying your sweet tooth, for instance, at meal time is less damaging. Saliva production during the course of a regular meal is higher than it is at other times, helping your mouth flush away damaging food particles. Also, you're probably more likely to brush and floss after a regular meaL Sugar, of course, contributes to other problems as well, like obesity and diabetes. Some items that you may think are healthy substitutes for sugar, like honey, molasses or corn syrup, may actually be worse for you because they are sticky and cling to teeth more easily than refined sugar. Hard candies are especially bad because they take a long time to dissolve and they keep teeth bathed in sugar. Talk with your dentist for suggestions on healthy snacks you might be able to substitute for a sugary one.
