Lakeview’s hospital is putting the finishing touches on a $17.3 million face-lift that has added an operating room, 37,000 additional square feet and a geothermal system. But that’s not the only alternative energy it must install.

Because of a state law requiring the implementation of solar energy technology, the hospital must also put in a $250,000 solar array that one hospital official calls redundant.

The solar requirement cannot be replaced by other green energy forms like wind, biomass, hydro or geothermal energy.

And that’s got Sen. Doug Whitsett, RKlamath Falls, once again working to amend the law to allow other types of green energy to fulfill the requirement.

“It’s somewhat ludicrous when they’re bringing geothermal to the hospital,” Whitsett said.

Last year, Whitsett tried and failed to pass an amended law. He plans to reintroduce the bill in the upcoming legislative session.

“I will introduce it, and this time I will do a better job shepherding it through,” he said.

Rep. Paul Holvey, DEugene, was the chief sponsor of the original law.

Greece’s Olympic trial: debt

By Ken Maguire New York Times News Service

ATHENS — What happens if the country that invented the Olympics cannot afford to produce Olympic athletes?

As this summer’s London Games approach, that notion is causing angst in Greece, where elite athletes are feeling the sting of austerity measures in the face of a historic debt crisis.

The government scrapped a plan to spend nearly $10 million a year on preparation, according to the Hellenic Olympic Committee. Athletes say their financial stipends are often months late, and it is common for coaches to go months without paychecks.

Greeks will compete in London, but they will perhaps be limping a bit at the opening ceremony July 27.

Adult salmon are set to return to the Upper Deschutes this year after a 40-year absence.

To get there, they’ll have to be hauled around three dams north of Lake Billy Chinook.

Achieving that goal has taken time, money and collaboration from several groups.

Chemicals injected at Newberry site raise concerns

By Dylan J. Darling The Bulletin

Along with millions of gallons of water, a Seattle-based energy company plans to pour tracer chemicals down two 10,000-foot wells east of La Pine this summer during an effort to increase their geothermal power potential.

A retired Bend doctor is questioning the safety of the chemicals AltaRock Energy may use Inside in its enhanced geothermal sys- • How the tems (EGS) experiment, in which process the company plans to use cold works, A5 water to crack hot rock and produce a new geothermal reservoir underground.

“My primary concern is health,” said Stuart Garrett, who helped lead the creation of Newberry National Volcanic Monument in the early 1990s. “Some of that could get into groundwater.”

The monument was established to keep geothermal power development out of Newberry Crater, home to Paulina and East lakes.

In previous interviews Susan Petty, AltaRock’s president and founder, said the company would be pouring pressurized water down the wells but no chemicals. Last week she said the company would be using tracers, or chemicals used to trace how much underground rock the water was contacting.

“We put them in such minute quantities I didn’t even think of them,” she said.

AltaRock plans to use about four gallons of chemicals in the 24 million gallons of water sent down the wells on the Deschutes National Forest outside the Newberry National Volcanic Monument, Petty said. She said the chemicals are also regularly used in groundwater exploration.

Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife technician Paul Brown transfers a steelhead to a tank at the Pelton Round Butte Dam complex on Friday. Several agencies have worked to restore Deschutes runs.

fter an absence of more than 40 years, adult salmon could be swimming in the upper reaches of the Deschutes River system this year.

The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife and the Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs are finalizing a plan for seagoing fish in the river that may include the trapping and hauling of spring-run chinook salmon around the three dams in the Pelton Round Butte complex, said Bobby Brunoe, general manager of the tribes’ natural resources branch.

“I think we are really excited about adults getting above the project,” he said. “It’s been one of the goals of all this.”

For more than a decade, the tribes have worked with Portland General Electric, which co-owns the power-producing dams, as well as state and federal agencies, water users and conservation groups to restore the Deschutes runs. Once above the dams, the fish will swim into the Upper Deschutes, Metolius and Crooked rivers, as well as Whychus Creek.

Demand strong for ethically iffy GPS car trackers

By Erik Eckholm New York Times News Service

Only yesterday it was the exotic stuff of spy shows: Flip on a computer and track the enemy’s speeding car.

But today, anyone with $300 can compete with Jack Bauer. Online, and soon in big-box stores, you can buy a device no bigger than a cigarette pack, attach it to a car without the driver’s knowledge and watch the vehicle’s travels — and stops — at home on your laptop.

Tens of thousands of Americans are already doing just that, with little oversight, for purposes as seemingly benign as tracking an elderly parent with dementia or a risky teenage driver, or as legally and ethically charged as spying on a spouse or an employee — or for outright criminal stalking.

The advent of Global Positioning System tracking devices has been a boon to law enforcement, making it easier and safer, for example, for agents to link drug dealers to kingpins.

Last Monday, in a decision seen as a first step toward setting boundaries for law enforcement, the Supreme Court held that under the Fourth Amendment of the Constitution, placing a GPS tracker on a vehicle is a search. Police departments around the country say they will be more likely to seek judicial approval before using the devices, if they were not already doing so.

FOCUS: SCIENCE

Unlocking the secrets of ‘eeew’ • Researchers explore how disgust protects us from disease and affects human relationships

is still the question of what kinds of disgust there are.

Haidt, Rozin and Clark McCauley of Bryn Mawr College claim nine different domains of disgust for North Americans. Curtis proposes seven categories. Joshua Tybur of VU University in Amsterdam proposed three domains of disgust, three separate psychological programs, for disease avoidance, mate choice and moral judgment.

“People who are sensitive to one type of disgust are not necessarily sensitive to another,” he said.

For example, he said, earlier claims that political conservatives (self-identified) were more sensitive than liberals to disgust were overly general. Research that he and his colleagues did suggested that conservatives were more disgusted by sexual topics but were similar to liberals in the domains of disease avoidance and moral judgment.

By James Gorman New York Times News Service

Disgust is the Cinderella of emotions. While fear, sadness and anger, its nasty, flashy sisters, have drawn the rapt attention of psychologists, poor disgust has been hidden away in a corner, left to muck around in the ashes.

No longer. Disgust is having its moment in the light as researchers find that it does more than cause that sick feeling in the stomach. It protects human beings from disease and parasites, and affects almost every aspect of human relations, from romance to politics.

In several new books and a steady stream of research papers, scientists are exploring the evolution of disgust and its role in attitudes toward food, sexuality and other people.

Paul Rozin, a psychologist who is an emeritus professor at the University of Pennsylvania and a pioneer of modern disgust research, began researching it with a few collaborators in the 1980s, when disgust was far from the mainstream.

“It was always the other emotion,” he said. “Now it’s hot.”

It still won’t wear glass slippers, which may be just as well, given the stuff it has to walk through. Nonetheless, its reach takes disgust beyond the realms of rot and excrement.

Links to some disorders Speaking last week from a conference on disgust in Germany, Valerie Curtis, a self-described “disgustologist” from the London School of Public Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, described her favorite emotion as “incredibly important.”

It adds to the popularity of disgust as a subject of basic research that it is easier to elicit in an ethical manner than anger or fear. You don’t have to insult someone or make anyone afraid for his or her life — a bad smell will do the trick. And disgust has been relatively easy to locate in the brain, where it frequents the

insula, the amygdala and other regions.

“It is becoming a model emotion,” said Jonathan Haidt of the University of Virginia, a disgust pioneer with Rozin.

And the research may have practical benefits, including clues to obsessive compulsive disorder, some aspects of which — like excessive hand washing — look like disgust gone wild.

Conversely, some researchers are trying to inspire more disgust at dirt and germs to promote hand washing and improve public health. Curtis is involved in efforts in Africa, India and England to explore what she calls “the power of trying to gross people out.”

One slogan that appeared to be effective in England in getting people to wash their hands before leaving a bathroom was “Don’t bring the toilet with you.”

Avoiding disease Disgust was not completely ignored in the past. Charles Darwin tackled the subject in “The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals.”

He described the face of disgust, documented by Guil-

laume-Benjamin Duchenne in his classic study of facial expressions in 1862, as if one were expelling some horribletasting substance from the mouth.

There are many variations in how scientists now view disgust, but one new approach by evolutionary psychologists was captured in a December special issue of The Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B, “Disease Avoidance: From Animals to Culture,” and in a conference on “The Evolution of Disgust” this month in Bielefeld, Germany, where many of the same scientists appeared.

Curtis contributed to the issue and the conference, and emphasized above all disgust as an adaptation to avoid disease-causing microbes and parasites that involves not only taste and smell but also sight and touch.

“To me the story is quite simple,” she said. The animal origins of disgust involve all sorts of ways that diseases are spread, including fleas, so there are a variety of signs of disease and types of disgust.

Under that evolutionary umbrella, however, there

Whatever the fine points of disgust, its power to affect behavior is unquestioned, and that power ought to be put to good use, Curtis said. So, in one of her projects, she has worked with an Indian public relations agency to come up with a disgust-based campaign to encourage hand washing among mothers in small villages, which could save countless children’s lives lost to diarrhea and other diseases.

The result, now being tested, is a skit involving two characters, one a supermom and the other a disgusting, dirty man.

The man makes sweets using mud and worms, stops in the middle of the performance to rush off because he has diarrhea, never washes his hands and does everything possible to be revolting.

Supermom is scrupulously clean. Her children don’t get sick, the skit makes clear. In fact, her baby grows up to be a doctor. She washes her hands all the time.

The prominence of diarrhea in the skit is no accident. One thing about studying disgust, Curtis said, is that it makes you realize how important it is to talk about the very things that disgust us, because they often present dangers to public health.

“Which is worse?” Curtis asked. To talk about it, “or to make kids die?”

It’s Sunday, Jan. 29, the 29th day of 2012. There are 337 days left in the year.

DID YOU HEAR?

Alaskans get all up in NYC’s grille New York Times News Service NEW YORK — In the interest of preserving an alreadycompromised sliver of urban wilderness, state legislators are asking the federal government to take over Central Park — legislators in Alaska, that is.

Annoyed with outsiders’ meddling with the right to drill in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, state Rep. Kyle Johansen, a Republican, introduced a resolution in Juneau this week that gives the statesrights-depriving Eastern elites a taste of their own medicine.

It urges the federal government to “declare Central Park to be a wilderness area and to prohibit any further improvement or development of Central Park unless authorized by an act of Congress.”

Many of Johansen’s colleagues immediately signed on as co-sponsors. The resolution is primarily a piece of political satire, Johansen said Wednesday.

The resolution notes that before Henry Hudson arrived in 1609, Manhattan was “a remarkably diverse and natural landscape.”

Bloomberg News The U.S. cattle inventory fell to the smallest size in 60 years as of Jan. 1, dropping more than expected, after a drought in the southern U.S. scorched pastures, spurring ranchers to shrink herds.

Beef and dairy farmers held 90.77 million head of cattle as the year began, down 2.1 percent from a year earlier, the U.S. Department of Agriculture said Friday. That’s the smallest herd since 1952, the USDA said.

Texas, the biggest cattle-producing state, had its driest year on record in 2011. The drought destroyed pastures, forcing ranchers to sell or slaughter animals rather than incur high feed costs. The price of corn, the main ingredient in cattle feed, reached an all-time high in 2011.

Before Friday, wholesale-beef prices rose 6.4 percent in the past 12 months and touched $1.9707 a pound on Nov. 23, the highest since at least 2004, according to the USDA. Retail beef reached an all-time high on an annual basis in 2011 and will climb through next year, according to the Livestock Marketing Information Center in Denver.

Yemeni leader arrives in U.S. for treatment New York Times News Service President Ali Abdullah Saleh, who left Yemen last week to seek medical treatment in the United States for injuries suffered when the presidential palace was bombed in June, arrived in the country Saturday night, Yemeni officials said.

The Yemeni foreign press office announced his arrival around 6:30 p.m. but did not disclose his location. Last month, when the Obama administration decided to permit Saleh to visit the country, an official said that NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital would be providing the treatment, but the hospital has not confirmed that report. Myrna Manners, a spokeswoman for the hospital, said Saturday night that “he is not currently a patient at the hospital.”

Before arriving in the United States, Saleh first stopped in Oman. He briefly touched down at a commercial airport near London for a “refueling stop,” according to Mohammed Albasha, a Yemeni government spokesman who described the itinerary on his Twitter account.

Saleh’s visit is particularly contentious. He has become known for his resilience and canny maneuvering in holding onto power for 33 years, and had long been considered a U.S. ally in the fight against al-Qaida, which has sought a permanent foothold in Yemen.

porting Romney.

The Gingrich campaign criticized this tactic, even as it brought out its own surrogates and said a backlash was building against Romney for orchestrating criticisms of Gingrich from the Republican establishment. Despite Gingrich’s threedecade career in Washington, he argues to audiences that he is the only one with vision bold enough to change it.

“Have courage!” he told the crowd here of about 150 people who were at the golf course.

And in the face of assertions that he is exaggerating his closeness to President Ronald Reagan, Gingrich added that he was “very proud to run on a Reagan-Gingrich record.”

The attacks from the likes of former Sen. Bob Dole of Kansas and other establishment figures prompted Sarah Palin, among others, to rush to Gingrich’s defense.

The establishment is “trying to crucify this man and rewrite history,” Palin told Fox News.

She also excoriated conservative writers who have been critical.

Palin’s comments followed those of the conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh, who assailed the Romney team on Thursday for a “coordinated attack” against Gingrich.

Gingrich is broadcasting a pair of tough ads here against Romney while also preparing for a long campaign that he hopes will be reinvigorated with the race in Nevada, which holds its caucuses Saturday.”

TV Series, Drama “The Killing”

PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. — Despite signs that he could lose the important Florida primary on Tuesday, Newt Gingrich, who picked up the endorsement of a former opponent, Herman Cain, pledged Saturday to stay in the nominating race until the very end, telling reporters he would press on until the Republican convention in Tampa in August.

“I will go all the way to the convention,” Gingrich told reporters after a rally at a golf course here. “I expect to win the nomination.”

Gingrich alluded to two polls that he said showed him ahead, but it is the state polls that count, and in Florida they show him lagging 8 or 10 percentage points behind Mitt Romney.

Later, at a West Palm Beach County Republican dinner, Gingrich accepted the endorsement of Cain, the former business executive who ended his own presidential campaign in early December. Cain, sharing the stage with Gingrich, said he understood the “sausage grinder” of a presidential campaign and was inspired by Gingrich, who has been pilloried by many in his party who are worried that if he became the nominee, he would lose to President Barack Obama in November.

Cain suspended his campaign after reports emerged of an extramarital affair, and it is not clear how much his endorsement would help Gingrich, who

has also acknowledged extramarital affairs. But Cain’s plan for a 9 percent flat tax resonated with Tea Party supporters and other conservatives.

Meanwhile, Rick Santorum canceled events in the state today, saying he would spend time with his 3½-year-old daughter, Isabella, who is in the hospital in Philadelphia, a spokesman said.

Isabella has Trisomy 18, a chromosomal condition in which the brain is not fully developed and which kills most infants in three months. She was admitted to Children’s Hospital on Saturday.

Santorum planned to return to Florida as soon as possible, said Hogan Gidley, the spokesman.

In Pensacola, Romney exuded confidence, telling jokes to a crowd in Pensacola and attacking Obama, a shift from recent days, when he had divided his focus between Obama and Gingrich.

He mentioned Gingrich only once, to gloat slightly about his own strong debate performances in Florida this week.

Criticism from the Republican establishment that he is too erratic to be president seem to have emboldened Gingrich, who predicted a “wild and woolly” campaign as he barreled through events Saturday on the affluent Treasure Coast.

The Romney camp has been sending its surrogates to Gingrich events to talk with reporters about Gingrich’s failings and why they were sup-

French filmmaker Hazanavicius had been a virtual unknown in Hollywood until “The Artist,” his black-and-white throwback to early cinema that has been a favorite at earlier film honors. The Directors Guild honors are one of the most accurate forecasts for who might go on to take home an Oscar.

The head of the Arab League, Nabil al-Arabi, said in a statement Saturday that after discussions with Arab foreign ministers, the 22member body had decided to suspend the monitors’ mission in Syria because of “the continued use of violence.” A final decision about the mission’s future is due in the coming days.

He blamed the Syrian government for the bloodshed, saying that it had decided “to escalate the military option.”

The suspension came after days of bloody civil conflict in cities across Syria, leading to criticism of the observers’ effectiveness, as they traveled to the edge of neighborhoods wracked by

violence in recent days, only to be turned back.

Their hesitation outside Rankous on Saturday, a town emptied of people after five days of clashes and government shelling, seemed to encapsulate the shortcomings of a mission accused by government opponents of providing cover to President Bashar Assad’s crackdown. Warned by army officers that insurgents could use explosives against them, a driver working with the observers refused to drive their heavily armored Mercedes into town.

Opposition activists in Rankous, which is near the Lebanese border, said they would have welcomed the visit.

THE BULLETIN • SUNDAY, JANUARY 29, 2012

Greece Continued from A1 Training centers have fallen into disrepair or have closed. A sports psychologist who counsels Greek athletes is working pro bono these days.

“Young athletes are very skeptical about continuing when they see that the top athletes are not receiving what they deserve, that they are not supported as they should be,” Vassilios Sevastis, the president of the Greek amateur athletics association, known by the acronym SEGAS, said through an interpreter. “This is the major risk.”

Greece has competed in every Summer Olympics since the modern Games began in 1896, when Athens hosted.

Even during the Great Depression, Greece managed to send athletes to Los Angeles in 1932 — the year it defaulted on its external debt. For Winter Games, Greece usually sends a handful of skiers.

To build a team for London, the country’s Olympic committee has pursued private-sector sponsors and has increased its dependence on aid from the International Olympic Committee. Now the growing concern is whether Greece, the host of the 2004 Summer Games, which have come to symbolize a decade of overspending, can sustain this course for long.

Like other elite athletes, the pole-vaulter Kostas Filippidis said it had been several months since he received his monthly $1,400 stipend from the athletics federation.

“Of course it’s a thought, but I cannot be worried about this every day,” he said, adding that he lived rent-free in an apartment owned by his father. “Taking part in the Olympics for my country makes me very proud.”

Filippidis trains indoors at the Olympic Stadium complex. He said the heat was on for just one hour a day. On a recent visit, just a few athletes were training there, and a large plastic container was positioned in a long-jump lane — not to be leapt over but to catch water leaking from the skylight above.

Alkisti Avramidou, a water polo player, said that “I think twice” before spending even one euro and that it was becoming difficult to ask her parents for help. Her father, a doctor, has seen his salary cut in half; her mother, a civil servant, has not been paid in several months. With the ex-

Salmon Continued from A1 He declined to go into any details of the plan under consideration by the state.

“We are real close to coming up with a strategy as how to handle the adults that show up in 2012,” he said. “But we are not quite there yet.”

The fish committee meets monthly, Brunoe said, so it has two or three more meetings before the spring-run chinook likely start arriving in late April.

Return of the salmon When the dams in the Pelton Round Butte complex were built west of Madras between 1957 and 1964, the intent was to have salmon and steelhead swim around them using fish ladders. While the threemile-long ladder successfully guided fish around the dams, young fish heading downstream from spawning beds were confused by currents in Lake Billy Chinook and didn’t find their way into the ladder.

In 1968 the Round Butte Fish hatchery was installed. Ever since, adult fish have been captured at the lowest dam in the complex and hauled to the hatchery.

The first phase in returning salmon and steelhead runs to the rivers above the dams was finished in 2009. That’s when the tribes and PGE completed a $100 million submerged tower that creates a current to attract migrating young fish.

Volunteers in the years since have helped distribute hundreds of thousands of young fish from the hatchery into rivers above the dams, mimicking natural hatches from spawning beds.

More than 44,000 young chinook were collected at the tower, hauled downstream of the dams and released in 2010, according to PGE. Another 30,000 came through last year.

Last year, five adult chinook

ception of going to practice, Avramidou avoids driving because she cannot afford gasoline, which costs about $8 a gallon.

Sevastis said the organization received only three-quarters of the $9.6 million budgeted for 2011, and that was after an injection of $1.6 million in December. A month earlier, the association’s board suspended operations to protest.

The December infusion allowed coaches and athletes to be paid, Sevastis said, but overall, the association provides money to just 23 elite athletes, compared with 60 two years ago.

A lingering and delicate issue, given Greece’s high unemployment, is a jobs program that elite athletes had relied on. In the free-spending days, athletes who won medals or finished high in international competitions were given public-sector jobs to provide salaries while they trained and competed for Greece.

In practice, they became no-show jobs, but a new law requires the athletes to go to work.

“This is a paradox,” said Sofia Bekatorou, who won a sailing gold medal in Athens and a bronze in Beijing. “You get the job to do your sport, but then you’re not able to do it.”

Bekatorou, a representative of athletes to the Olympic committee, said other countries had used similar programs.

Without it, young athletes have little incentive to devote time to training, advocates say.

The way to London, said Spyros Capralos, the president of the Hellenic Olympic Committee, involves new relationships with the private sector — not a simple task in a shrinking economy.

“In the past, it was easier to get money from the Greek state, so not much effort was made or nobody really cared,” said Capralos, the chief executive of a shipping company and one of the leaders of the Athens 2004 organizing committee.

The Olympic committee’s four-year plan was to spend about $40 million, but after the committee received a $10 million installment from the government in 2009, Capralos said, the Olympic preparation budget was eliminated. He has signed new sponsors, including the betting company OPAP, which is contributing $6.5 million. (Greece holds a 34 percent stake in OPAP.) Olympic Air is providing free flights. Some federations, like

salmon returned, along with two “jack” chinook salmon — fish that return a year or two earlier than the fish they hatched with. This year’s run should have about 400 fish, said Brad Houslet, fisheries department manager for the tribes. Most of the chinook will be from the young fish that swam into the tower in 2010.

“This is the year that we are expecting more fish,” he said.

The tribes and ODFW will determine how many of this year’s chinook go to the hatchery and how many may be released above the dams.

Ready for fish The tribes and PGE, whose officials said they eventually want to see harvestable salmon and steelhead runs on the upper rivers, aren’t the only groups eager about the possible return of the salmon. Conservation groups like Trout Unlimited and water users groups like the Deschutes Basin Board of Control, which represents seven irrigation districts in the Deschutes River basin, also share in the excitement.

“It’s all very, very exciting,” said Darek Staab, a project manager with Trout Unlimited in Bend. “There’s been so much work leading up to this point.”

The group has been involved with restoration efforts on rivers above the dams. Likewise, irrigation districts that draw water from above the dams have been working on ways to keep more water in the rivers, priming them for spawning salmon and steelhead, said Steve Johnson, chairman of the Deschutes Basin Board of Control.

He said more projects, such as the current lining of an irrigation canal between Bend and Redmond, will further improve conditions for fish.

“The job is not done yet,” Johnson said.

Eirini Vourloumis / New York Times News Service

A historic debt crisis has affected Greek’s Olympic hopefuls, including the women’s water polo team.

gymnastics, have found their own sponsors.

Vasilis Tsolakidis, who will be a first-time Olympian in the parallel bars at 32, receives federation support, but said his family’s business and personal sponsor, Traffic Oil, made his full-time training possible. He and his wife are raising four

children ranging in age from 2 to 11.

Maria Psychountaki, a University of Athens sports psychologist, who has worked with athletes for 22 years, said that in the past two years, they were more stressed, adding, “They’re worried about finding money to live.”

Unlikely sources have chipped in. The International Modern Pentathlon Union donated two new laser pistols and a new precision target, worth $4,500 total, said Joel Bouzou, the pentathlon organization’s secretary-general.

“We see that they train very hard,” he said. “They are very good people, and we want to help them.”

A team of more than 150 athletes — one of Greece’s largest — went to Beijing in 2008 but captured just four medals, and for the first time since Seoul, South Korea, in 1988, they did not win a gold.

Nearly 50 athletes have already qualified for the London Games. Capralos, a two-time Olympian in water polo, said, “Whoever qualifies will go.”

That may be possible only because of the International Olympic Committee’s solidarity program, which gives grants to

needy athletes. Ten Greek athletes — up from four in Beijing — are receiving scholarships of about $1,000 a month toward London preparation, according to the national Olympic committee. Women’s water polo was awarded a team grant.

The solidarity commission is also giving an extra $100,000 to every national Olympic committee for 2012, citing the world financial crisis, the IOC said. Greece distributed the money to 12 of its athletes.

For the country’s Olympic hopefuls, financial challenges in preparing for London may be only the most immediate obstacle. Many athletes around the world are already training for the 2014 Winter Games, and beyond.

“This way is not working,” said Bekatorou, the athletes’ representative on the Hellenic Olympic Committee. “We need to find another way.”

AN EARLY LOOK AT THE LANTERN FESTIVAL

Geothermal Continued from A1 The company also may use biodegradable plastics, minerals and glass — the exact makeups of which were held as proprietary in Bureau of Land Management environmental documents — to plug fractures in the rock as more are created deeper down, Petty said. The $42 million EGS experiment, which is half funded by the U.S. Department of Energy, will be done in three stages starting this summer.

While similar to fracking, the controversial injection of water into the ground by companies in pursuit of oil and petroleum reserves, Petty says it is different. The difference, she said, is that fracking uses water mixed with chemicals that break rock and sand to widen the fractures.

AltaRock is not trying to open large fractures that are created in fracking. Instead it is trying to build a web of small fractures for water to pass through hot rock and absorb heat before returning to the surface.

AltaRock plans to use seismometers to measure the spread of the fractures, which will produce tiny earthquakes as they are created. The BLM environmental documents said the earthquake hazard of the EGS experiment is no different than the natural earthquake hazard at the volcano, with magnitude 4.0 earthquakes possible. The documents listed the likelihood that the experiment would trigger an earthquake between magnitude 3.0 and magnitude 4.0 at less than 1 percent.

Trace of light AltaRock will also use chemicals to measure the growth of the fractures.

The chemicals that may go down the wells near La Pine are all fluorescents, glowing in shades of green and yellow as well as pink and red, Petty said. The company is working on a tool that uses LED lights and spectrometers to measure how much of the chemicals are in the water.

The plan is to put two chemicals down the well at a time, one that sticks to rocks and one that doesn’t. The one that sticks will fade as the water contacts more rock. That will tell scientists that the water is

flowing through more rock.

The company listed 19 potential chemicals it may use as tracers in the wells in Bureau of Land Management environmental documents.

Components of those chemicals include naphthalene and rhodamine, which Garrett said may be toxic. Petty said other components of the chemicals they plan to use counteract this possibly negative health effect.

The design of the wells should also keep the chemicals from entering any drinking water, Petty said. The well is lined with concrete and steel where it passes through the aquifer between about 600 and 1,200 feet below the surface.

If the cracking of the rock triggered by the EGS starts to spread upward and not outward as planned, the flow of water will be stopped said Doug Perry, president of Connecticut-based Davenport Newberry, AltaRock’s partner on the experiment.

Like Petty, he said the chemical-laden water won’t mingle with groundwater.

“The aquifer is much, much shallower — by thousands of feet — than the area we are working in,” he said.

Permitting process Davenport Newberry originally drilled the wells set for the EGS experiment as part of its ongoing search for traditional geothermal power sources — underground hot water — but only found hot rock. AltaRock is leading the EGS experiment and, in doing so, is modifying state and federal permits to allow for the mass injection of water into the ground.

The BLM, which manages underground exploration even on land overseen by the U.S. Forest Service, closed a public comment period for the environmental documents on the project last week.

Garrett, the Bend doctor, raised his concerns about the chemicals in comments filed with the BLM. He said AltaRock didn’t provide details of how the chemicals it plans to use could affect people if they made it into groundwater.

“I just think they owe us a better explanation,” Garrett said.

5 more arrested in phone hacking scandal

By John F. Burns New York Times News Service

LONDON — A Scotland Yard team investigating the bribery of police officers by journalists searched the offices of Rupert Murdoch’s flagship British tabloid, The Sun, on Saturday after arresting a police officer and four men identified as current or former journalists at the paper. A police statement said searches were also being conducted at the homes of the arrested men.

The arrests appeared to mark an intensification of the police investigation into the role of The Sun, Britain’s highest-circulation daily newspaper, in illegal newsgathering techniques that prompted Murdoch, 80, last summer to close The Sun’s sister newspaper, the weekend News of the World.

A statement issued by Murdoch’s News Corp. in New York said the arrests on Saturday resulted from information provided to the police by the company’s Management and Standards Committee, which was charged by Murdoch last year with rooting out what the company called “unacceptable news gathering practices by individuals” at the newspapers of the company’s British subsidiary, News International.

The police said that three of the men arrested Saturday were taken from their homes in London and neighboring areas of Essex County for questioning on suspicion of conspiracy in actions involving “aiding and abetting misconduct in a public office,” the criminal offense commonly applied to cases of bribery of public officials. The fourth man was arrested when he appeared at an East London police station, the police statement said.

The police officer involved, a 29-year-old man serving in the territorial policing command of the Metropolitan Police, the formal name for Scotland Yard, was arrested while at work at a central London police station. He was the second serving officer to be arrested as part of the investigation, known as Operation Elveden, following the arrest last month of a 52-year-old female officer.

In all of the arrests, the suspects were released on bail.

Scotland Yard and News Corp. did not identify the Sun journalists arrested on Saturday. But the BBC’s website said they were Graham Dudman, a former managing editor; Fergus Shanahan, a former deputy editor; Mike Sullivan, the paper’s crime editor; and Chris Pharo, the paper’s head of news. The arrests of the men brought to 13 the number of those arrested in the investigation into the bribery of police officers.

Russia opposes U.N. action IMF chief presses for more cash to impel transition in Syria to battle European debt crisis

The Washington Post With the United States and its allies pressing President Bashar Assad to step down, the Arab League last week issued a detailed plan for a political transition in Syria. The plan was welcomed by the Obama administration, and Arab leaders quickly said they would refer it to the United Nations.

And a day later, Russia had its say: Not a chance.

“This is an effort from the Arab League, if I understand

correctly, to sort of already put a precooked solution on the table,” said Vitaly Churkin, Moscow’s envoy to the U.N. “I understand that the attitude of Damascus to that has been negative.”

The response doomed any hope of a quick resolution at the U.N. to increase pressure on the Syrian government, but it also fell into a familiar pattern by which Moscow has shown a growing willingness to challenge the United States and its European partners.

In recent weeks, Moscow has sought U.N. scrutiny of possible crimes by NATO during its air campaign in Libya, and even called for investigations into organ sales in Kosovo, a close ally of the West. Most notably, Moscow has obstructed any effort to increase pressure on Iran.

Asked whether Russia would ever support a U.N. resolution imposing economic sanctions on the Islamic Republic, Churkin said: “No chance, no chance, no chance ... ever.”

GPS Continued from A1 Still, sales of GPS trackers to employers and individuals, for a multitude of largely unregulated uses, are growing fast, raising new questions about privacy and a legal system that has not kept pace with technology. This easy tool for recording a person’s every move is a powerful one that, when misused, amounts to “electronic stalking,” in the words of one private investigator.

“That, to the victim, is just as terrifying as seeing your face in the window at night before they go to bed,” said the investigator, John Nazarian, who heads an investigation agency based in Los Angeles.

So many suspicious spouses are now doing their own spying, a private investigator in New Jersey said, that his infidelity business is declining.

In the absence of legislation in most states, putting a GPS device on a spouse’s car, or hiring an investigator to do so, is widely considered to be legal if the person placing it shares ownership of the car. But some privacy experts question this standard, and there is little to stop a jealous suitor, or an abusive man trying to prevent a battered woman from escaping, from doing the same.

GPS trackers are increasingly being cited in cases of criminal stalking and civil violations of privacy.

One increasing use of GPS tracking — by as many as 30,000 parents, one seller estimates — is to monitor the driving habits of teenagers; some devices even send a text message when the car goes over a certain speed.

Jimmie Mesis, a private investigator in New Jersey who, with his wife, Rosemarie, publishes PI Magazine and also sells devices through a company called PIgear, recalled a couple whose 17-year-old daughter had a drug problem and would disappear for hours at a time. Worried that she might overdose, they placed a tracker on her car. When they saw that she was visiting the same house repeatedly, they informed the police, who raided the drug den.

Also rising is the placement of devices in the cars or pockets of elderly parents with dementia. Mesis said one client with an erratic 86-year-old father discovered that he had driven to the southern end of the Garden State Parkway in New Jersey, and they were able to retrieve him.

Even if done legally and out of concern for family members, the covert use of GPS devices poses ethical questions.

“To have this as a routine tool strikes me as pretty chilling,” said Jonathan Zittrain, professor of law and computer science at Harvard University.

“We are talking about partners and spouses, not pets.

“It cuts into someone’s autonomy to know where they are all the time and not give them the opportunity to opt out,” he said.

Raymond McCrea Jones / New York Times News Service

Niall Cronnolly, a private investigator, said his company uses GPS trackers in about half of the 3,000 to 5,000 cases it handles each year. GPS trackers are increasingly being cited in stalking cases and privacy violations.

Rick Johnson, a private investigator in Denver, recalled two recent cases in which women who were going through divorces hired him because they believed that their husbands were following them. He found GPS trackers on their cars and removed them.

“It scared the hell out of these women,” Johnson said.

Sales of GPS trackers to private individuals may have already surpassed more than 100,000 per year, some experts believe. The marketing is just getting started.

Danny Burnham, the general manager of InTouch MVC in Lakeland, Fla., said that he was negotiating with Best Buy, Radio Shack and Brookstone and that he hoped to be selling trackers in the big retailers before the end of the year. The devices will be described as safety tools, but no one can be sure of buyers’ intentions.

“Selling a tracking device is similar to selling a firearm: You don’t ask what they are going to use it for, and what they do with it is entirely out of our control,” said Brad Borst, the owner of Rocky Mountain Tracking in Fort Collins, Colo. His company sells GPS devices online, including a 4inch-by-2.5-inch model called the Ghost Rider, for $349, that can, with a waterproof box and magnet ($30), be hidden inside a vehicle’s bumper.

One Los Angeles man who went through a nasty divorce said he used zip ties to attach a similar device to the car his wife was driving, which was registered in his name. He suspected that his wife, who had said she had health issues and could not work, was giving false testimony.

“I couldn’t eat, I couldn’t sleep, and then I got that thing,” the man said. “It showed the car at the place of business. It showed that she was going out to nice restaurants. It showed she was living a lifestyle above what she had when she split up with me.”

The man confronted his wife but never told her how he learned of her lies. In the divorce case, he said, “it was a major tool in saving my assets.”

The most pervasive use of the devices is by companies that track fleets of vehicles or highvalue shipments. But company detectives have also been making covert use of GPS devices to follow employees suspected of theft or malingering.

Paul Ciolino, whose Chicago-based investigation firm specializes in corporate work, recalled following an employee of one company who turned out to be playing golf every day. “He’d sit in the clubhouse and fill out expense reports for places he never went.”

Some devices plug in under the dashboard and are powered by the car battery; others have batteries for covert placement. They establish position through satellite signals, then report via cellphone towers to a central computer; customers, who pay perhaps $20 a month, log in to the server.

“To follow someone in a city like Los Angeles, law enforcement use 10 to 12 cars and even a helicopter, and even then they can still lose them,” said Nazarian, the Los Angeles private investigator. “With this device, you apply it in 10 minutes, go have dinner, have a drink, then go see everywhere that car went, how long they stayed there. It’s absolutely the cat’s meow.”

California and Texas, unlike most states, ban many uses of GPS trackers without consent, with exceptions for law enforcement and car owners. Many private investigators said they followed the same rules to minimize the risks of civil litigation — that a tracked person could sue for violation of privacy.

Niall Cronnolly, the president of Eagle Investigative Services, based in Atlanta, said his company uses GPS trackers in about half of the 3,000 to 5,000 cases it handles each year. Most involve suspicious spouses, he said, but sometimes employers track suspect workers. Cronnolly said the company uses the devices only when clients are married or engaged to the target, or for employers only when the suspect is driving a company car.

“So in a sense,” he said, “it’s like putting a GPS device on your own car.”

DAVOS, Switzerland — The head of the International Monetary Fund appeared to be making headway Saturday in her drive to boost the institution’s financial firepower so that it can help Europe prevent its crippling debt crisis from further damaging the global economy.

Christine Lagarde, who replaced Dominique Strauss-Kahn as managing director of the fund six months ago, is trying to ramp up the IMF’s resources by $500 billion so it can help if more lending is needed in Europe or elsewhere.

The IMF is the world’s traditional lender-of-last-resort and has been involved in the bailouts of Greece, Ireland and Portugal.

Insisting that the IMF is a “safe bet” and that no country had ever lost money by lending to the IMF, Lagarde argued that increasing the size of the IMF’s resources would help improve confidence in the global financial system. If enough money is in the fund the markets will be reassured and it won’t be used, she said, using arguments similar to those that France has made about increasing Europe’s own rescue fund.

“It’s for that reason that I am here, with my little bag, to actually collect a bit of money,” she said at the World Economic Forum in this Swiss Alps town.

Her plea appeared to find a measure of support from ministers of Britain and Japan, sizable IMF shareholders that would be expected to contribute to any money-raising exercise.

George Osborne, Britain’s finance minister, said there is “a case for increasing IMF resources and ... demonstrating that the world wants to help together to solve the world’s prob-

lems,” provided the 17 countries that use the euro show the “color of their money.”

European countries have said they’re prepared to give the IMF $150 billion, meaning that the rest of the world will have to contribute $350 billion.

However, many countries, such as Britain and the U.S., want Europe to do more, notably by boosting its own rescue fund.

Osborne said he would be willing to argue in Parliament for a new British contribution, though he may encounter opposition from some members from his Conservative Party.

Japan’s economy minister, Motohisa Furukawa, said his country would help the eurozone via the IMF, too, even though Japan’s own debt burden is massive. Unlike Europe’s debt-ridden economies, Japan doesn’t face sky-high borrowing rates, partly because there’s a very liquid domestic market that continues to support the country’s bonds.

Europe once again dominated discussions on the final full day of the forum in Davos.

Despite some optimism about Europe’s latest attempts to stem the crisis, fears remain that turmoil could return.

Whether the markets remain stable could rest for now on if Greece, the epicenter of the crisis, manages to conclude crucial debt-reduction

discussions with its private creditors. It’s also seeking to placate demands from its European partners and the IMF for deeper reforms.

A failure on either front could force the country, which is now in its fifth year of recession, to default on its debt and leave the euro, potentially triggering another wave of mayhem in financial markets that could hit the global economy hard.

Protesters call for income equality While politicians and business people were discussing the state of the global economy within the conference center, protesters questioned the purpose of the event as income inequalities grow worldwide.

Protesters from the Occupy movement that started on Wall Street have camped out in igloos at Davos and were demonstrating in front of City Hall to call attention to the needs of the poor and unemployed.

In a separate protest, three Ukrainian women were arrested when they stripped off their tops — despite temperatures around freezing — and tried to climb a fence surrounding the invitation-only gathering.

Davos police spokesman Thomas Hobi said the three women were taken to the police station. He said they would be released later in the day.

Solar

The geothermal heat exchange system at Lake District Hospital in Lakeview is due to be completed this fall. The hospital’s $17.3 million upgrade project was required to include $250,000 worth of solar technology. “It seems a little redundant,” says Charlie Tveit, the hospital’s chief operating officer. “We weren’t happy about it.”

Continued from A1 The law, which went into effect in 2008, requires all public building projects that cost $1 million or more to spend 1.5 percent of their total budgets on solar energy technology.

The law also applies to any renovation that costs at least 50 percent of the building’s value.

That can mean photovoltaic panels, solar pool or water heating, or active solar space heating systems.

Holvey said he sponsored the bill because several solar companies were considering a move to Oregon and he wanted to encourage their relocation here. He also thought it was important to diversify the state’s energy portfolio and encourage the use of solar energy because of its lack of emissions and the fact that it can be generated on-site. SolarWorld, a large-scale manufacturer in Hillsboro, opened its Oregon plant in October 2008. Holvey said that was partly a result of his law.

‘A little redundant’ But while the law may have pleased solar manufacturers, it didn’t please some public officials.

Charlie Tveit, the chief operating officer for Lake District Hospital in Lakeview, said the hospital began its renovation and addition in December 2009. The project, which includes new equipment and financing, cost $22 million and is scheduled to be completed in the next couple of months.

The cost of construction, about $17.3 million, was funded in part by purchasing general obligation bonds from the state. The hospital must include about $250,000 worth of solar technology.

“What we were a little grumbly about is, here we are putting in geothermal to heat the hospital and the requirement on the state level was that you do solar,” Tveit said.

“It seems a little redundant.”

The city of Lakeview is putting in piped systems that will bring geothermal water heat to school district buildings and the hospital. That project is due to be completed this fall.

The hospital installed a heat exchanger that will heat the tap water in the facility, as well as a conversion system that will provide a type of hot water forced-air heating system for the hospital as well.

Well before 2009, the hospital had architectural designs in place for the renovation and addition. Tveit said hospital officials were surprised when they discovered they’d have to add solar panels to their

design.

“We weren’t happy about it,” Tveit said.

Whitsett’s not happy about it, either.

“That $17 million project came with a $255,000 price tag for solar energy panels or solar thermal when they have no use for them,” Whitsett said.

“Solar doesn’t work too well in, say, Tillamook, where the sun rarely shines. And it’s unnecessary in places where you have geothermal.”

Tveit said he supports using alternative energy, but would like to see the law expanded to allow for other, sometimes more appropriate, types.

“It is a grand idea, but if we’ve already got an alternate energy source we ought to get credit for that,” Tveit said. “Unfortunately I think that some strong solar interests have impacted our Legislature. I don’t know, I haven’t been here long enough. It’s just a guess.”

Holvey said he has no problem adding geothermal energy or other on-site alternative energies to the existing law, although he expressed some concern about the way Whitsett’s bill is written and whether it would loosen the 1.5 percent requirement too much.

“From my perspective and the way I read the proposal is that anybody who builds any

sort of building could claim credit for the 1.5 percent without doing anything differently,” Holvey said. “And we would see at that point there’s no incentive and no help in seeing solar integrated into our energy grid.

And I think that’s an important piece of our future.”

Closer to home Lake District Hospital isn’t the only one frustrated by the solar requirement.

Central Oregon Community College, which is in the midst of constructing five buildings on its Bend campus and just completed several other buildings in outlying areas, must place solar technology on several of its new buildings.

That’s in spite of the fact that the Bend campus is so shaded by trees that it was not a particularly effective location for solar panels.

COCC spokesman Ron Paradis said the college has asked a state review panel to allow its solar requirements to be combined into one or two larger solar arrays, perhaps all on the Redmond or Madras campuses.

COCC is required to place solar equipment on its science, health and culinary buildings on the Bend campus, as well as new campus facilities in Madras and Prineville. The

FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT

Slow answers a shade on window into Washington

By Matthew L. Wald New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — Is a FOIA delayed a FOIA denied?

“FOIA” is the Freedom of Information Act, under which federal agencies are supposed to promptly release documents requested by the public. In the dialect of Washington, it can be a noun or a verb. But the FOIA process is seldom prompt.

On Jan. 4, The New York Times received a final response from the Defense Department to a FOIA request made on June 1, 1997. The department sent it by Federal Express, Priority Overnight.

The courts have ruled that government agencies must respond to FOIA requests in 20 days. But The Times’ case was hardly a record; some requests are approaching 20 years old.

The intent of the Freedom of Information Act is to provide citizens, scholars and journalists a window into the workings of their government, but sometimes it seems as though the shades are drawn.

For example, the National Archives and Records Administration says its oldest request is from September 1992, asking for information from the White House Office of Science and Technology about nuclear weapons safeguards, testing and disarmament negotiations. The documents requested are from 1961.

These requests have been neither denied nor approved;

they are in limbo, awaiting the attention of someone in another agency with the authority to decide what can be declassified. The National Archives does not have that authority.

Miriam Nisbet, director of the office of government information services at the National Archives, said of the lengthy delays: “I can’t defend that. You’re not going to get anybody who’ll say it’s just fine that it takes that long.” Nisbet is a kind of ombudsman of the FOIA program, mediating some disputes.

Gary Stern, the chief FOIA officer of the National Archives, acknowledged, “It’s slower than any of us would like.” Some requests are from people writing books, and the book has already been published, he said, and “then a delay is in effect a denial.” Some are from journalists who may have lost interest in the subject matter over the years, he said, and the cases can drag on for so long that “some are from people who are dead.”

The Times’ request that drew the response on Jan. 4 was made by a reporter, Philip Shenon, who left the newspaper 3½ years ago. It concerned U.S. government contacts with the Khmer Rouge, which ruled Cambodia from 1975 to 1979.

At the time of the information request, the group still had a guerilla army in the jungles of Cambodia.

A government employee who was involved in The Times’

1997 request in its later stages said, “It sounds like it got into somebody’s ‘deal with later’ file.” The employee asked not to be further identified because, he said, he feared for his job.

In a statement, the U.S. Transportation Command, the Defense Department agency that sent the response by overnight mail, said, “It is a painstaking process to coordinate with all agencies that may be involved to provide releasable information the public has a right to know.”

In fact, Shenon had been seeking information from several government agencies, and he received some partial releases in earlier years.

The statement noted that the agency had to avoid divulging classified or sensitive information and had to observe some other exceptions to the Freedom of Information Act, including requirements to “enhance the effectiveness of law enforcement agencies, protect sensitive business information and preserve privacy.” It did not explain how those last three might pertain in this case.

The law also allows agencies to withhold information that infringes on the privacy of third parties.

While the response to Shenon was to a question that is no longer so pressing, the government appears to have put significant labor into generating it. It consisted of 12 pages, with all but 10 paragraphs redacted.

college also plans to build a technical education center on its Redmond campus that would also be required to implement solar technology.

“They’ve sent back a letter that says they are interested in further pursuing but they’re not ready to give us an answer,” Paradis said. “So we’ll continue the conversation.”

Paradis said the college hopes to learn more in the next two months.

“They’d like to know more details, and so we’re just in the middle of this process,” he said.

But for officials at Lake District Hospital, which has not yet installed its solar panels, there’s still some hope that the law will be changed.

“If Senator Whitsett could get the law changed, we would be very pleased,” Tveit said.

For some Vassar applicants, joy, then misery, after college corrects acceptance errors

By Matt Flegenheimer New York Times News Service

Yap Zong Yao woke up at 5 a.m. Saturday in Singapore to check his admissions decision from Vassar College. He returned to sleep “overwhelmed with joy,” he said.

Mahmoud Ghedira stayed up with family members until 11 p.m. Friday in Tunisia as they toasted the son who had impressed an esteemed American school.

Megan Curiel, from San Antonio, saw the good news on her iPhone and sobbed.

Her father called relatives.

She ordered two Vassar sweatshirts — one for her and one for her mother.

They popped Champagne.

“I was in,” Curiel said, “for about three hours.”

About 4 p.m. Friday, scores of early-decision applicants to the college, in Poughkeepsie, N.Y., were mistakenly told they had been accepted, the school said.

Jeff Kosmacher, a spokesman for Vassar, said on Saturday that a “test letter” that had been intended as a placeholder for the real admissions decision had not been replaced before students checked their application statuses online.

The error was discovered around 4:30 p.m., he said.

Between 6:30 and 7 p.m.

Friday, the 122 students who had seen the test letter — 46 who were, in fact, accepted and 76 who were not — were sent a message from the college that cited a “system error” and apologized for the mistake, Kosmacher said. The correct decisions, the message said, were now available online.

“If after checking your decision again you still have questions,” the message said, “please feel free to contact the Admissions Office on Monday morning.”

Though some parents

have requested refunds of application fees, Kosmacher said that besides Friday’s message, “no other step is in the works.”

A total of 254 students had applied for this round of binding early decisions, he added, and some had logged in while the error was online.

Word spread quickly among the applicants, many of whom had been communicating on the website College Confidential in the days before the decisions were to be released, sharing their well-wishes and trepidation.

The parents of one student in Connecticut who was rejected said they were considering legal action because the decision was supposed to be binding.

Vassar is not the first college to supply false hope to students. In March, 61 applicants to the University of Delaware received misguided congratulations. Similar errors have plagued the University of California, San Diego, and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in recent years.

For some students, Vassar’s error brought a moment of clarity. Posting on the College Confidential thread, Leggio mused that perhaps he preferred a school in a city after all.

Kareen Troussard, a student in Paris, said the episode might have saved her. “I want to major in computer science,” she said in an email, “and Vassar doesn’t even know how to use a computer on the biggest day of our lives.”

Finders keepers? There’s a law for that

By Hillary Borrud The Bulletin

Ray Meek and his four children were enjoying a nice fall day in 2008 at Harmon Park in Bend when they spotted an unusual sight: a canoe floating downriver, with no occupants.

“My daughter says, ‘Look, there’s a boat floating down the river,’ ” Meek said.

Meek grabbed a stick.

“I caught the end of it and pulled it in,” he said. “There were two life jackets and two unopened Pabst Blue Ribbons.

And there were lots of leaves in it, like it hadn’t been used in awhile.”

Meek took the aluminum canoe home, and called police.

No one had reported the boat lost or stolen, and a Bend officer told Meek to file a report with

the Deschutes County Clerk.

Meek filed the report, which started a process under state law that rewards people who report lost property worth $100 or more by giving them ownership of the item if the owner never turns up.

To preserve a right to the property, Meek and other Samaritans must publish a notice of the found item once a

week, for two weeks, in a local newspaper. If no one claims the property within three months of the initial report to the county clerk, the finder gets to keep the item.

WASHINGTON — On Thursday, the Senate voted down a House bill that would have kept the Obama administration from raising the nation’s debt ceiling by another $1.2 trillion.

The votes were enabled by the deal struck last summer during a showdown over raising the debt ceiling.

While Congress could have voted to refuse to allow the government to borrow any more money, the measure was subject to a veto by President Obama, which he indicated he would have used if both chambers agreed against the increase.

Last week, in a largely symbolic vote, the Republican-controlled House voted against the increase. In response, the Democrat-controlled Senate killed the bill, with 52 voting against it and 44 voting in its favor. Sen. Scott Brown, R-Mass., voted with the majority, while Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., joined the otherwise Republican minority. Four senators did not vote.

Pile burns to be completed soon Fuels specialists with the Deschutes National Forest and the Bureau of Land Management’s Prineville district have made significant progress on their pile burning program this winter and plan to finish soon, the agencies said.

Fuels specialists credit a delay in the onset of winter conditions, which allowed continued access to the pile burning project areas.

The piles are left over from thinning projects designed to reduce hazardous fuels and restore forest health.

Specialists will work to complete two final areas over the next two weeks, depending on weather and access.

Crews with the Prineville BLM will burn approximately 50 acres of piles in the Darlene area located 4 miles southeast of La Pine and east of state Highway 31. Smoke may be visible from Highway 31 and U.S. Highway 97 south of La Pine.

Crews with the Deschutes National Forest will continue to work on the remaining 50 acres of piles in the SAFR area south of Sisters.

No road closures are anticipated with any of these projects.

Deschutes seeks panel members Deschutes County is seeking three new volunteer members for its Historical Landmarks Commission.

There are no specific qualifications, but expertise in history, architecture, archaeology or related fields is encouraged, according to a county news release.

The commission meets quarterly.

Those interested should submit an application form available from the Deschutes County Community Development Planning Department, 117 N.W. Lafayette Ave., Bend, or at www. deschutes.org/cdd, a letter of interest detailing the applicant’s background and interest in historic preservation and a resume by 5 p.m. Feb. 24.

The vote, which needed a two-thirds majority to carry, passed by a 410-1 margin. Rep. Michael Honda, D-Calif., voted against it, while Rep. Peter Welch, D-Vt., voted “present.”

Some Senate Republicans had commented publicly Tuesday that it had been 1,000 days since Congress had passed a federal budget.

Guests mingle during the annual Oregon Chinese New Year Benefit for Education for Chinese Orphans, which was held Saturday at the Boys & Girls Club in Bend. EChO raises money for special needs orphans in Kaifeng, China.

Chinese orphans find a friend in Central Oregon • A Bend special education teacher is leading an effort to help needy children

By Scott Hammers The Bulletin

C

entral Oregon welcomed the Year of the Dragon on Saturday night, celebrating the Chinese New Year at the Boys & Girls Club in Bend at a fundraiser to benefit orphaned Chinese children.

A benefit for Education for Chinese Orphans, or EChO, Saturday’s party featured a buffet from China Doll restaurant and auctions for Chinese art and other items, all to raise money for special needs children living in an orphanage in Kaifeng, a city of nearly 5 million located between

Beijing and Shanghai in northeastern China.

EChO founder Robert Tadjiki first learned of the plight of Chinese orphans when he and his wife Stephanie traveled to China to adopt their daughter in 2004.

On that trip, he met a man who had trained orphanage residents to paint traditional Chinese scrolls, and on his return, he set up a business to help the orphans sell their scrolls in the United States.

A few years later, the Tadjikis were headed back to China, looking to set up a school for orphaned children.

Many headed for the West In the opinion of A.O. Hunter, who returned Friday from an extended trip in the East, Central Oregon and Bend will receive a big influx of homeseekers this spring, when the low rates from the Eastern states go into effect on the railroads. In an interview with The Bulletin, Mr. Hunter said: “While in the East I learned

of circumstances that I feel sure will bring to Central Oregon and to Bend the greatest influx of homeseekers this part of the country has ever known.

Two main causes combine to get people started toward this part of the United States.

The first is the severe weather which prevailed the first of the month back there.

It was not for a few days, but for weeks the temperature was below zero.

I was in Dayton, Ohio, at the time and it was the coldest there it has been in thirty years. While the Pacific Coast had a touch of this cold weather, it must have been like summer here compared with what it was in the Middle West, and I know of many people who are going to get away from that

Our fun-loving friend, Paul Hosmer, has died; he will be missed by many of us

Shot in head during brawl Charged with the shooting of Herman Brauer, Fred Hahn, better known as “Blackie,” was arrested this morning. Brauer, also called “Peoria Slim,” is in the hospital suffering from a wound in the head, but his condition is not regarded as serious.

Brauer was wounded in the head by a rifle ball during a brawl which started in a Bond Street saloon. The bullet fractured the skull but did not enter the man’s brain. Drs. Ferrell and Coe trepanned the skull. Both the victim and Hahn claimed that it was an accident. “Blackie” stated that he did not know the weapon was loaded and made no effort to get away and was a little later arrested and placed in jail.

A number of brawls of minor note have taken place about town the past week.

75 YEARS AGO For the week ending Jan. 28, 1937

Fuel shortage reported here Emphasizing that Bend faces a serious shortage of furnace fuel, wood dealers here urged local residents to conserve their supply as much as possible and warned that only a very limited supply of heavy fuel now exists in Bend. The supply is diminishing daily. Paul Brookings, operator of one of the larger local wood yards, announced this morning that he is only delivering half cords to patrons.

In many instances, only green fuel is available.

Wood dealers see no immediate solution to their present problem of replenishing their supply because it is impossible to get over the snow choked roads to wood cut in the mountains. The county has been asked to open some of these roads, the wood dealers declaring an emergency exists. Trucks of some of the wood haulers are broken down or snowbound in the southern woods.

Although heavy furnace fuel will probably not be available here within the next few days, unless wood haulers can reach their supply in nearby timber, the Miller Lumber Co. reported this morning that it is delivering hog fuel, without delay.

Orders for box wood are about a week behind, but emergencies are being cared for.

There has been an increased call for coal here within the past few weeks, and another carload, to replenish the diminishing supply of dealers, is expected this week.

Birthday ball will be held on Saturday Deschutes county and Bend city officers are to be introduced at the president’s birthday ball here Saturday night, in the B.P.O.E. hall, it was announced today, as plans for the dance were completed. Seventy percent of the proceeds will remain in Bend, for the care of local infantile paralysis victims, and 30 percent will go to the Warm Springs foundation, primarily for research work in the nation-wide battle against the disease.

Somewhere, somehow, sometime, Paul learned how to operate a canoe.

Our motor-boating friends probably don’t realize quite what a feat that was. Hosmer and his canoe were at home in all the lakes of Central Oregon.

Paul Hosmer was probably best-known locally for two completely unrelated activities — his writing and his banjo playing. One could always tell by standing near the automobile exit to the mill yard, just what day Pine Echoes had made its appearance that month. A few fellows would drive out at the end of the day at high speed with red faces, taking out their Hosmer caused wrath on their cars.

The faces of the drivers of the balance of the cars also often were red, but they were convulsed with laughter, trying to keep the tears out of their eyes well enough to see the road.

Now, about that banjo.

There’s no truth to the story that Paul invented the original banjo. That honor belongs to another. Nor did Hosmer bring banjo-playing to the high state it now enjoys. Eddie Peabody did that. Hosmer’s banjo lay somewhere between these extremes.

To a casual observer, who didn’t know him, Paul Hosmer appeared to be a dignified sort of fellow.

A banjo in his hands looked somewhat out of place. He ran a dance band for a time, but most of his fun came in impromptu jam sessions. And he was unpredictable even there. Hosmer would start out with a tune, admonishing the piano player to change to a key with which Paul was somewhat more familiar, and things would proceed somewhat according to plan. Then Paul would change his mind.

An off beat lick or two would signify the change. And pretty soon the whole outfit was way out in left field, on another tune, in a different key. It was an inspiring performance to everyone excepting those in the combo.

There were other facets, of course. There was Hosmer the husband and father. There was Hosmer the good friend.

Hosmer the fine conversationalist. Hosmer the many things.

Through the years he was a free-lance writer. His pictures won national attention. One, a picture in color of a manned canoe apparently floating in the air over Devils Lake in the Cascades, appeared in Life in a full page layout. It was hailed as one of the top pictures of the year.

Through the years, Paul Hosmer lived close to nature, with a summer home at Elk Lake. There his friends found him quietly rowing on the big lake, at times under summer stars, or at work with his typewriter at his home facing Bachelor Butte over the water.

When a man with all these talents dies suddenly, you can see why his friends feel a deep sense of loss.

The Badlands is considered a “roadless area” even though dirt roads crisscross the wilderness study area. The BLM, a federal agency that has come up with many curious descriptive phrases, labels the dirt roads “vehicles ways.”

A wilderness designation would prohibit vehicles in the area — including off-road vehicle (ORV) enthusiasts who also enjoy the Badlands.

However, nearly all of the nearby Millican Valley is open to ORV’s and Elshoff believes the Badlands should be put offlimits to off-road vehicles. The dirt roads soon would grow over with natural vegetation, she said.

“The Badlands is the kind of wilderness where it challenges you to use self-restraint,” she said. “In wilderness you are asked to use less power in your relation to nature. You’re encouraged to walk instead of ride a dirt bike, or ski instead of snowmobile.

The next stop on Elshoff’s tour of the Badlands was a dry canyon on the east side of the wilderness study area.

The narrow seam in the desert blocked out the sights and sounds of the rest of the area.

Tall clumps of Great Basin ryegrass sprouted in the middle of the canyon, and in the shadows on the rock walls it was easy to make out the primitive Indian pictographs.

One drawing was clearly in the figure of a man, while most of the others were impossible to interpret.

Under one overhang was a rock wall with a series of painted lines, as if an Indian had kept score of his hunting success. And, as if his luck ran out, there are 13 lines painted on the wall.

The Badlands today is heavily used by wildlife, including mule deer who winter in the sheltered section of the Badlands. The light snow that covered the area last week, showed that the badlands also is home to coyotes, jackrabbits and many other smaller creatures.

Elshoff said she once tallied 23 different species of birds during a day’s count in the Badlands.

The Badlands Rock, the most important natural feature in the wilderness study area, was the last stop in the tour.

The towering rock formation is the largest of the “pressure ridges” that bulge out of the ground in about a dozen places in the Badlands.

The Badlands certainly is a beautiful area with unusual geologic formations. But it has little in common with more traditional wilderness areas — including the heavily timbered Three Sisters Wilderness Area.

But this is a desert wilderness, and those who do not share Elshoff’s passion for the desert will never fully understand how she and other supporters of the wilderness designation feel about the Badlands.

“What’s really fun is to come out here in the late afternoon with your sleeping bag and watch the sun go down,” she said. “And then you can lay there at night and listen to the coyotes howl.”

‘Cool Schools’ audit finds $40M in energy upgrades

2 people and dog rescued from SUV

GRAND RONDE — Oregon State Police say two people and a dog have been rescued from an SUV that left a highway, slid 30 feet down an embankment, hit a tree and ended up in three feet of water in a creek.

Firefighters pulled 57year-old Gertrude Dickey of Willamina and her 67year-old brother, Monty Dickey, from the vehicle Friday. She suffered minor injuries. Her brother was flown to Salem Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. Their Labrador retriever was unhurt.

State police Sgt. Brad Hessel said a Polk County inmate work crew witnessed the crash and tried to help but couldn’t free the occupants.

In Salem, fire crews swam Friday afternoon into Pringle Creek to rescue a female kayaker who had become stranded on a debris pile. Fire Battalion Chief Bob Davis said the woman suffered mild hypothermia.

Man shot, killed

by Fairview police FAIRVIEW — Police in Fairview say an officer shot and killed a man who brandished a knife.

The 37-year-old man died at the scene. He has not been identified.

Fairview police officers and Multnomah County sheriff’s deputies were responding to a report of a disturbance at an apartment complex Friday night.

Authorities say the officers involved are on administrative leave, a standard procedure.

Former car dealers face fraud charges PORTLAND — Brothers from Idaho and Washington and another man face a federal charge they conspired to commit bank fraud.

Roger Spangenberg, of Post Falls, Idaho and brother David Spangenberg, of Spokane, owned three now-closed D&R auto dealerships formerly located in Hermiston and Enterprise, Ore. Steven Johnson, of Aberdeen, Wash., served as manager.

An indictment handed down this month alleges that from January 2007 through August 2008, the Spangenbergs and Johnson conspired to defraud KeyBank of more than $6 million.

Federal prosecutors in Portland said Friday that all three have pleaded not guilty. Trial is set for March.

Rescuers recover body of 6-year-old ESTACADA — The body of a 6-year-old girl has been found nearly a week after she was swept away in a frigid, fast-moving Oregon river.

Sheriff’s officials say a citizen found the body of Vinesa Snegur on Saturday on the rocks of a shallow island in the middle of the Clackamas River.

The Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office says the body was about four miles downstream from the spot where the girl fell in.

The girl’s parents took her to play in the snow last Sunday in the Mount Hood National Forest. Authorities say her father has described the seconds before she fell in as a “moment of inattention.”

— From wire reports

By Jeff Barnard The Associated Press

One of Gov. John Kitzhaber’s top priorities after taking office a year ago was his “Cool Schools” initiative to create jobs while making schools more energy-efficient.

Energy audit companies have taken a close look at 100 mostly small and rural school districts around Oregon to determine upgrades that are needed, how much energy can be saved, and what it might cost.

Those audits, which were obtained by The Associated Press, show a potential savings of $3.6 million a year if the full complement of $40 million worth of improvements is done.

With grants and other incentives, the cost to schools would total $36 million, and the state is offering low-interest loans to pay for it.

The audits do not include estimates of how many jobs might be created. But governor’s aide Scott Nelson says labor studies indicate that $40 million worth of energy retrofits would typically account for 400 to 600 direct yearlong jobs.

Success will depend on the confidence schools have in the potential savings, their willingness to take on new debt during tough economic times, and whether they were already planning improvements.

The engineer for Eugene School District, the biggest of the districts audited, is skeptical.

Gary Heldt said they are already embarked on improvements financed by voter approval of a $70 million facilities

bond, and are unlikely to want to take on any more debt He was also critical of the quality of the audit.

“Quite frankly, it didn’t tell us anything more than we already knew,” he said.

The Eugene audit suggested 508 projects costing $8 million on 38 buildings to produce first-year energy savings of $367,000. The bulk of the money would be spent on insulation in walls and ceilings, multiple-pane windows, and tighter weather stripping.

Heldt said he found cost estimates were low. The district re-

Three have already been done: installing energy-efficient lighting in three schools.

Most of the district was covered by an earlier round of audits before Kitzhaber was governor. Schools in the rural communities of Gilchrist and Bonanza were in this latest round and sorely need the improvements, he said.

The Oregon School Boards Association was also enthusiastic.

Merlin couple open home to help disabled adults

By Patti Richter Daily Courier

GRANTS PASS — Pam Crisel has always liked taking care of others. Five years ago, she turned pro.

Crisel and her husband, Glen, remodeled a home in the Merlin area and opened a foster home for adults with developmental disabilities.

“I’m the youngest of seven girls in my family. I’ve always had people around,” she said.

“I like the chaos and can deal with personality differences.”

The Crisels have three clients, all men who range in age from 17 to 23. Their disabilities vary in severity: One man cannot be left alone even for short periods of time, while another is able to go out with friends to dinner or other excursions. Crisel said the state pays them to provide care, and the clients also pay room and board.

“I like it here,” said Kevin, a 20-year-old whose mother asked that his last name not be used.

The shy young man sat on the couch fiddling with a watch. He said he likes being able to hang out with his friends, the other clients in the house, as well as help out by cutting wood and stacking it. He also likes going to work three days a week at Southern Oregon Aspire’s recycling center, where he sorts plastics and paper on the conveyor line.

“Kevin is very responsible,” said Crisel. “He is really good about getting up and getting

ready for work. He always has his vest, safety glasses and gloves ready to go.”

Kevin plans to use his first paycheck to buy a television and pay for satellite music channels.

“He loves music, especially from the ’70s and ’80s,” Crisel said. Kevin nodded his head in agreement.

Crisel also said Kevin enjoys swimming and may participate in Special Olympics.

He is quite the cook, too.

“I like making cheesecake,” he said. “And brownies.”

Another client, Richard Emery, was the Crisels’ first client. He said living at the Crisel home has given him a chance to get out and do more.

“I didn’t do a lot of stuff before,” he said of his previous home. “Now, I’m back to the things I love.”

Those things include camping, fishing and hunting. Last week, he spent the night at Seven Feathers with friends to have a fun night out. Emery also works at Southern Oregon Aspire, taking apart computers and other electronics for recycling.

Crisel said she wouldn’t be able to run the home without her husband’s help. He is often doing the transportation to and from jobs and to special events for the guys.

“We’re a team,” she said.

“This is rewarding for me.

You can see how much (the clients) appreciate what we do even if they can’t always say it.”

Teen dies in snowboarding crash The Associated Press PORTLAND — Authorities say a teenager has died after slamming into a tree while snowboarding.

The Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office says 17-yearold Taylur Dewolf, of Sandy,

cently solicited bids to replace a heating unit in a transportation shop, and found the real cost was twice the audit estimate.

“It’s for free, but you have to take it with a grain of salt,” he said of the audit.

But Klamath County schools enthusiastically embraced the Cool Schools program.

“It allowed us to complete projects that otherwise we might not have been able to do,” because voters have been unwilling to approve bond issues, said Superintendent Greg Thede.

The district has taken $1.8

had severe trauma to her head and chest. The ski patrol for Mount Hood Skibowl found her body about 10 feet from a groomed downhill trail Friday night.

Dewolf was snowboarding with family and friends but

had not been seen for three hours. Witnesses told investigators that she had been snowboarding at very high speeds.

Authorities say there are no suspicious circumstances and the death is considered accidental.

this kind,” said spokesman Lonn Hoklin. “Any support that comes from the state through this program is most welcome.”

Kitzhaber has trumpeted the initiative. In a letter encouraging districts to do the improvements, he wrote: “Not only will your district realize savings and put local contractors to work, but your students will have a healthier, more comfortable environment in which to learn.”

Paid by the state with $1 million in federal stimulus money, 11 auditing firms looked at 390 schools and other buildings in 100 districts across the state that get power from independent utilities and Idaho Power.

The 100 school districts served

by Portland General Electric and PacifiCorp were covered by an earlier program.

The state is putting together financing and has guaranteed a rate of 3.5 percent or less, said Nelson.

Nelson said not all schools can do projects now, but based on past participation, they anticipate a total of $36 million in loans will be handed out to schools in both the first and second phase of audits.

Eight school districts from the earlier program are approved for financing for $9.5 million in energy retrofits, said Nelson. They are Banks, Klamath Falls, Klamath County, MiltonFreewater, Monroe, Pine Eagle, Corbett and Jefferson.

Thorne enjoyed a very successful profesThorne Foster sional career as an executive recruiter and eventually started his own private firm in San Francisco.

Thorne was passionate about fly fishing, golf and good wine. He had homes in Bend, Oregon and LaQuinta, California.

Friends and family will remember Thorne for his wonderful sense of humor, a gift for storytelling, his generosity, good taste, and a natural ability with a golf club and fly rod.

Thorne is survived by his wife, Dennis Foster, and his three sons, Scott, Rhett and Dirk; his daughterin-law, Cindy; his grandchildren, Christopher, Ciaran and Kyle; his step-mother, Adrian; and his sister , Adrian Cunard.

A private memorial was held January 15, 2012, in San Francisco, California.

Continued from B1 Although Tadjiki had already been a special education teacher for nearly a decade, special-needs orphans were scarcely on his radar until the trip began. Wanting to know how to best focus his efforts, he inquired as to where the greatest need was in a meeting with government officials. Their answer was special-needs students, those with Down syndrome, cerebral palsy and other conditions he deals with daily as a teacher in the Life Skills program at Bend High School. “That just threw me into a tailspin, because I know how hard it is,� Tadjiki said. “I know exactly how hard it is.�

Years later, EcHO is educating 40 special-needs orphans.

Students in the program receive physical therapy and instruction in basic life skills like dressing and feeding themselves, and Tadjiki said he’s hopeful most of them will grow into adults capable of holding a job and living a relatively normal life.

Board member Jenny Murphy recalled meeting a boy at the school in Kaifeng who had extremely limited mobility because of his cerebral palsy.

Now 7, the boy has learned to roll himself over after a year of physical therapy, she said, and delights in showing off his new skills for visitors. “It’s just amazing the things we take for granted,�

Murphy said.

Lost Continued from B1 The found items included wedding rings, guns, cash and snowboards. Bikes were the most common item reported. What the clerk’s records don’t show is how many items were reunited with their original owners.

One man found two pistols in a dumpster in Bend, while a woman discovered a pistol left on Tumalo Mountain. A trial assistant found $350 at the District Attorney’s Office, and a man found a purse with $100 outside Mountain View High School in Bend.

In 2003, Lucy Borne was walking past the Pine Tavern in Bend when she spotted a sapphire and diamond ring in the street. “It was a little bent,� Borne said, but a jeweler confirmed the stones were real.

Borne called police to report she had found the ring and filed a report with the county clerk.

No one ever claimed the ring and because of the downtown Bend location where Borne found it, she thinks it might have been lost by a tourist. “If somebody said, ‘Hey,

Died of complications from a stroke Jan. 26. in Los Angeles. — From wire reports

Gigi Gordon was crusading defense lawyer

By Carol J. Williams

FEATURED OBITUARY

Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — Gigi Gordon, a crusading criminal defense lawyer who battled corrupt police and overzealous prosecutors to free dozens of prisoners who had been wrongfully convicted, committed suicide after struggling with multiple sclerosis and depression. She was 54.

Gordon, who had been sinking deeper into despair over the past year as her debilitating illness eroded her intellect and medication failed to alleviate her pain, overdosed on pills and died Jan. 18 at a park on Los Angeles’ Westside, her friends said.

Known for her fierce determination to fix what she saw as the flagrant ills of the criminal justice system, Gordon is credited with bringing attention to the misuse of jailhouse informants that led to many wrongful convictions.

Partly in response to her advocacy, legislative reforms to

prevent jailhouse informants from being rewarded for false testimony began about a decade ago and were tightened last year. “She changed the way criminal law was practiced in this county,� said her ex-husband, Andrew Stein, who also is a criminal defense lawyer. “People don’t realize how many people she set free.�

Gordon worked quietly in the background to challenge the convictions of those set up by corrupt investigators during the Los Angeles Police Department’s Rampart Division scandal in the late 1990s and the widespread misuse of jailhouse informants during the 1980s and ’90s, Stein said.

The couple married in 1998 and divorced a decade later but remained close, jointly caring for their beloved dogs, Ali and Maya, Stein said.

Gordon was found dead

in the back seat of her car at a park where the couple had regularly walked their dogs.

Gordon had a “brilliant mind� and read and wrote voraciously, and her inability to maintain those pursuits plunged her into depression, Stein said. “She read at the speed of light — 20 books a month,� he said. “She was aware her mind was failing her. It was very difficult.�

In 2000, Gordon founded the Post-Conviction Assistance Center in Santa Monica and used it as a command center as she tried to free victims of corruption and prosecutorial excess. “The criminal justice system is nowhere near as perfect as the average person thinks it is,� Gordon said at a hearing in 2004 after DNA evidence exonerated a client, David Allen Jones, who had spent a decade in prison for three murders he didn’t commit.

Pasadena criminal defense

lawyer Ron Kaye hailed Gordon as “an unstoppable force for justice� and credited her with exposing the misuse of informants that sent scores of defendants to prison for long terms, including his client Thomas Goldstein, who served 24 years before his wrongful conviction was quashed.

Gordon’s commitment to sparing criminal defendants from trumped-up charges and rigged evidence led a Los Angeles judge to appoint her to represent more than 2,000 suspected victims of the Rampart corruption scandal in which police were accused of widespread abuses.

The conviction in 2000 of three LAPD officers on corruption charges stemming from the Rampart scandal represented a watershed moment for justice in the city, Gordon said at the time and proclaimed, “In Los Angeles, a badge is no longer a shield� against accountability for cops who break the law.

Chris Brasier, 58, of Bend, decided to sponsor a 10-yearold boy from the orphanage Saturday night.

A retired nurse, Brasier said she’s sponsored two children through different organizations for nearly 15 years, helping to provide educations to a boy from Kenya and a girl from India. The Indian girl recently graduated from school, and she said she wanted to add another child to the mix.

Knowing there is a specific child benefitting from her donations is important, Brasier said. “You feel like a personal contact. It’s not just giving money to whatever,� she said.

It costs $25 a month to sponsor a student. The group hopes to open a second school.

Brasier recalled visiting China in 1979 and finding it both extremely fascinating and extremely foreign, with bicycles everywhere and crowds of Mao-suited Chinese gathering to stare every time she and the Westerners she was traveling with went outside.

Tadjiki said that while much has changed in China since Brasier’s visit, it remains a difficult place for those with mental or physical disabilities, sometimes as an unintended consequence of official government policy.

Because of China’s onechild policy and limited programs for the elderly, Chinese parents depend on their child’s financial success to support them in their old age.

Because children born with

disabilities are largely unable to do so, they are often given away to orphanages.

Once in an orphanage, disabled children receive limited attention — in part, Tadjiki said, because it is assumed programs to keep disabled adults fed and housed will provide for the children once they grow up.

Cyndee Overland, a former EChO board member and child sponsor, said she was struck by what she saw when she went to China to adopt her two daughters. Children with disabilities were largely ignored, left, “like lumps of clay,� she said, in drab rooms with no stimulation and limited attention.

Overland said the organization has also provided an opportunity for her daughters to experience Chinese culture, something that is not easy to do in Central Oregon.

Overland said she knows only a small amount about Dongdong, the Chinese boy she’s sponsored for the last two years and whose portrait she wore on a string around her neck Saturday. While she hopes to see the school in Kaifeng on her next trip to China and possibly meet Dongdong, Overland said she’d be content just to be helping those who need it. “Because I’m forever grateful to that country for my children, I’m happy to help wherever the need is greatest,� she said.

I lost this, it’s really special to me,’ I’d be happy to give it back,� Borne said. “Obviously when you find a piece of jewelry that’s a ring, you hope you find the owner because if it’s something sentimental, you want it to be with the owner.�

One of the people who found cash was Glinda Zumwalt, of Bend, who came across $1,001 in 2002, in the parking lot of a Shari’s restaurant in Bend.

Zumwalt said she’s 64, and her generation grew up knowing that reporting a found item was the right thing to do. “I would just do that because that’s just what you do,� Zumwalt said.

Still, the event was significant for Zumwalt. In 2002, her daughter was about to get married and Zumwalt didn’t have any money to help pay for a wedding. One day, she prayed for money for the wedding, then took her father to lunch at Shari’s. When they came out of the restaurant, they found a money clip with cash on the ground near Zumwalt’s car.

Zumwalt turned the money over to the police and waited three months for someone to claim it, but no one did.

“I knew in my heart that God had given me the money,� she said.

Deschutes County Clerk Nancy Blankenship said she believes most people do not know of the state law on rights and responsibilities of finders, and people who file reports probably learned of it from law enforcement. “I’m sure there’s a lot more out there than what comes in,� Blankenship said. “As far as I can tell, a lot of these people wouldn’t even know to do this unless they contacted law enforcement.�

The law was enacted in 1973 and amended in 1989.

Blankenship said she does not know the reasons behind it. Deschutes County Sheriff Larry Blanton said the law was written to require finders to attempt to find the property owners, and it also resolves the question of ownership so items do not sit unclaimed forever.

Meek, the Bend father who found the canoe, said no one ever came forward to claim the boat. And he and his kids have enjoyed it. “I was stoked on it, the kids were stoked on it,� Meek said.

T W NO, THANKS — IT LOOKS COLD OUT THERE

T W B N.M. students find man stuck in mud ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — A man who tells authorities he was stuck in the mud at the Rio Grande river in New Mexico for three days has been rescued after a group of high school students on a field trip heard him yelling for help.

An Albuquerque Fire Department spokesman said the students and their biology teacher heard the man yelling from a marshy wetlands area Saturday morning.

It took swift-water and technical rescue teams about two hours to pull the unidentified man to safety. His name and condition were not released. The man told the students he had spent three days stuck in the mud of the old river bend about two miles north of Interstate 40 in Albuquerque.

It wasn’t immediately clear how he became stuck.

CALIFORNIA PENSIONS

Clamor grows to rein in benefits

By Patrick McGreevy Los Angeles Times

SACRAMENTO, Calif.

— Gilbert Robles retired as a state parole agent at age 53, able to collect a $101,195 annual pension — 94 percent of his final salary. Last year, six months after he retired, the Arcadia resident accepted a political appointment with the same agency that pays an additional six figures.

Scott Hallabrin took retirement as the top attorney for the state’s ethics agency on June 29, 2009. The next day, he went back to the same post, as he prepared to watch his pension checks roll in on top of a salary.

Los Angeles school administrator Norman Isaacs got a 35 percent raise in 2006, the year before he filed for his public pension. The increase sharply boosted his retirement benefits.

Robles, Hallabrin and Isaacs acted within their rights under California’s pension rules, which the Legislature’s independent budget analyst recently described as “among the most generous in the country.” That generosity comes with a price: The main pension system for public employees is expected to cost taxpayers $2.3 billion this year and has long-term obligations that it is $85 billion short of being able to fund.

California Gov. Jerry Brown came to office promising to reduce the state’s burgeoning pension costs, partly by limiting the kinds of practices that inflated the three employees’ retirement incomes. Saying the system is not financially sustainable, the governor has laid out a 12-point plan to change it. He would raise the retirement age, require many employees to contribute more toward their benefits and stop allowing workers to buy retirement credit for years they don’t work, among other changes.

But key parts of the plan would apply only to people hired in the future — after the

overhaul passed the Legislature and became law. Tens of thousands of current public employees would still be able to take advantage of the rules that benefited Robles, Hallabrin and Isaacs.

“The governor’s plan doesn’t go far enough,” said Dan Pellissier, president of California Pension Reform, a group led by former state officials that is proposing a ballot measure to rein in pensions further.

Eliminating one of the three practices, the kind of salary “spiking” that swelled Isaacs’ retirement pay, could be difficult. Courts have ruled that the California Constitution prevents the state from changing the terms under which employees were hired. One of the terms is that retirement benefits are based on a worker’s highest-paid year of service.

Attorneys advising Pellissier’s group say the courts left room for changes in case of a financial emergency such as the pension crisis. But Evan Westrup, a spokesman for Brown, said, “We went as far as we thought we could with current employee pensions within existing legal boundaries.”

Retire then return Similar legal constraints do not apply to the other two income-boosting methods. Hallabrin, 61, used a “revolving door” that allows a government employee to retire one day and go back to work the next day for the same agency, drawing a paycheck and a pension. Brown’s plan would not prevent that.

Hallabrin was making $136,500 a year as general counsel for the state Fair Political Practices Commission, California’s ethics watchdog, in June 2009 when he filed retirement papers. His pension payments were to be $78,648 a year. The day after he retired, he returned as the agency’s general counsel. As a “retired annuitant,” he may work only 120 days a year, but that pays

him $63,000 annually on top of his pension.

Hallabrin said annuitants give the state the benefit of knowledgeable workers at lower cost.

But the governor, in crafting his plan, weighed such benefits to the state against the need to prevent abuses, according to Westrup. “We believe a reasonable balance must be struck in limiting post-retirement employment,” he said.

Lucrative loophole Another loophole Brown’s proposals would not close allows his appointees to state commissions to receive fulltime pay for those posts while they collect government pensions, as Robles does. He retired in December 2010. Brown subsequently appointed him to the Board of Parole Hearings.

There, he draws a full-time salary of $111,845 in addition to his annual retirement benefit of $101,195.

In announcing his proposals, the governor said he would begin asking potential appointees whether they intended to collect pensions while serving in paid posts — information he would consider in making the appointments.

Not good enough, said Marcia Fritz, president of California Foundation for Fiscal Responsibility. The exemption for political appointees should be eliminated, she said. “If he doesn’t do that,” she said, “I would be disappointed.”

Brown’s plan does address pension “spiking.” He would require all new public workers to have their payouts based on their highest average compensation over a three-year period, rather than on one best year, which is allowed for many current employees.

The one-year rule “encourages games and gimmicks,” Brown said.

But current workers could still use their best year’s salary, as Isaacs did. A longtime employee of the Los Angeles Unified School District, Isaacs received a 23 percent raise

Judge denies bid to halt mustang roundups

By Scott Sonner The Associated Press

RENO, Nev. — A federal judge in Nevada who handed horse protection advocates a rare victory last fall has rejected their latest request to block government roundups of freeroaming mustangs in the West, saying they’ll have to go to Congress if they think the animals are being treated inhumanely and need more protection.

U.S. District Judge Howard McKibben granted a temporary restraining order on Aug. 30 that cut short by a day a roundup near the NevadaUtah line after he determined a helicopter flew too close to a horse in violation of the law.

But he said during a hearing in Reno on Thursday that he was denying a new injunction request from the Texas-based Wild Horse Freedom Federa-

tion partly because the Bureau of Land Management has made some positive changes since then. He also said he can’t issue injunctions based on speculation about future abuses.

“This court is really not in a position to be the overseer of the BLM,” McKibben said.

“This court is not going to police all gathers in the U.S. or even all gathers in the district of northern Nevada.”

when he transferred from a principal’s job in 2005 to create and lead a charter school in the San Fernando Valley.

In 2006, he got a 35 percent boost — to $185,000. That helped push his annual pension from the California State Teachers’ Retirement System, which he began collecting in 2007, to $215,194. Isaacs is 67 and again heading an LAUSD school while he receives those benefits.

Attorneys for Pellissier’s group say they believe the state can legally change benefits for current workers if it can argue it’s necessary to prevent abuses or is needed because the pension system is in financial crisis.

“If you are in dire financial straits, if its preventing you from providing basic government services, if you have tried reasonable alternatives — all of which is true here — then you can alter” the terms, said Chapman University law professor John Eastman.

Pellissier said the governor should extend the three-year rule to all public workers, as his group’s potential ballot measure would.

“If spiking is bad for everyone,” he said, “why are we excluding current employees?”

Police use tear gas on Oakland crowd OAKLAND, Calif. — Police have used tear gas and flash bang grenades on demonstrators in Oakland, Calif., as authorities say a protest involving an estimated 2,000 people turned violent.

About 300 people were arrested Saturday during a chaotic day of Occupy protests that saw demonstrators break into City Hall and burn an American flag.

Oakland officials say about 250 people were in the group when the protest started on the city’s streets around noon Saturday, with demonstrators threatening to take over a vacant building.

The group was being monitored by dozens of Oakland police officers, as well as

officers from nearby police agencies. Police began firing tear gas and flash bang grenades as things began to get out of hand.

Sculptor flattered

by Olympia art heist OLYMPIA, Wash. — Eugene artist Jud Turner says it was an uncomfortable compliment to have his sculpture stolen from an Olympia gallery.

He said it was slightly flattering and slightly alarming to have his piece taken from the Matter Gallery.

Gallery owner Jo Gallaugher told The Olympian the thieves apparently targeted Turner’s “Tribute to the concussed skier,” a death’s head in the middle of radiating snow skis, valued at $800.

Gallaugher says she has more valuable art, but thieves broke through a skylight and rappelled 18 feet to take that and “Horizons II” by Jerry Williamson of Olympia, valued at $600. She says the sculptures are most often admired by men in their 20s.

Noise canon placed on Columbia span VANCOUVER, Wash.

— The Oregon Department of Transportation has installed its latest weapon in the war against starlings that have been flocking to the Interstate 5 Columbia River bridge and fouling it with their droppings.

Workers installed a propane-powered air cannon on Thursday on a catwalk 239 feet above the water.

Beginning Monday, the cannon will be fired at random times over the next month to scare off the starlings. Officials hope the birds don’t get as accustomed to the blasts.

MEDFORD — Meshach, the cat who was severely burned over Christmas, is completing his recovery at Sanctuary One, a nonprofit care farm in the Applegate Valley.

The year-old orange tabby was released Thursday morning from Talent’s Best Friends Animal Hospital, which has been caring for him since the stray arrived at the Eagle Point home of Michael and Summer Finn on Dec. 22 with burns on his face and under his tail.

After 35 days of treatment at the veterinary clinic, Meshach was deemed well enough to transition to Sanctuary One. Still wearing his protective head collar and receiving medications for his wounds, the friendly cat is doing well and has not lost his love of humans, said Robert Casser-

“We cried. There were tears in everyone’s eyes when he left.

But he looks like he’s happy to be out of his kennel.”

— Hailey South of Best Friends Animal Hospital

ly, Sanctuary One executive director.

“He’s doing great,” he said.

Because he still has open sores and needs special treatment, Meshach remains isolated from the other cats for now.

But Meshach is very affectionate with staff, and everyone is looking forward to the day when he can join the rest of the kitty crew, Casserly said.

The Finns were feeding

the stray on a regular basis.

When he arrived at their door with burns to his face and under his tail, the pair took him to Jackson County Animal Control, then to Best Friends, where he has endured painful surgeries and treatments for his burns.

His last surgery on his burned ears was Monday, said Hailey South of Best Friends.

South said Meshach will be missed at the clinic. But she is glad to see photos and updates on Sanctuary One’s Facebook page.

“We cried. There were tears in everyone’s eyes when he left,” South said. “But he looks like he’s happy to be out of his kennel.”

Casserly said there is a long list of hopeful adoptees waiting to care for Meshach once he is fully recovered.

Jackson County sheriff’s deputies continue to investigate the suspected animal

Medical pot excuse fails The Associated Press BOISE, Idaho — A traffic stop in southwestern Idaho resulted in an Oregon man being charged with felony drug trafficking after officers found nearly 69 pounds of marijuana in his car.

The Idaho State Police says 39-year-old Justin Cody Brownrigg, of Eugene, was pulled over for a traffic violation on Interstate 84 in Canyon

County. A trooper detected the odor of marijuana in the car and Brownrigg said he had eight to 10 grams of marijuana and was a medical marijuana cardholder in Oregon.

Officers found a small amount of marijuana and a pipe, but a more intensive search turned up three large duffel bags with 68.8 pounds of marijuana worth an estimated $172,000 in the car.

Dennis Sienko, 67, recommends some wine to Jane Strell, center, and Mary Kelly during one of Bend Wine Cellar’s Saturday afternoon tastings. He and his wife, Diane Sienko, 71, started this business after they retired.

entrepreneurs • More older Americans are starting up businesses to earn income and to enjoy the satisfaction of continued productivity

By Mac McLean The Bulletin

Dennis and Diane Sienko, 67 and 71, spend two afternoons each week helping a sporadic stream of customers who visit the Bend Wine Cellar, an “accidental wine shop” the couple opened in a storage room at northwest Bend’s College Way Shopping Center about one year after they retired.

“We’re here about six hours each week,” Dennis Sienko said while his wife poured wine for a couple at one of their store’s Saturday afternoon tastings. “But if someone calls with a wine emergency then we understand and will be happy to help.”

No matter how much time they put into the Bend Wine Cellar and the other side projects that sprang out of it, the Sienkos call their store the “accidental wine shop” because going into business for themselves was the last thing they planned to do when they retired to Bend in 2004.

But when they took this leap — something only 0.34 percent of the country’s population is willing to do, according to one foundation — the Sienkos joined a fast-growing group of older Americans who have become entrepreneurs because they needed some extra money or to fill the time.

People between the ages of 55 and 64 were the most likely age group to start their own business for four out of the past six years, according to a report by the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation. This age group made up 12 percent of the population in 2010 and 23 percent of its entrepreneurs.

“It’s definitely a trend,” said Beth Wickham, director of the Central Oregon Community College business development center. “It used to be that the largest group of entrepreneurs were in their 20s and 30s, but now it’s people who are much older than that.”

See Entrepreneurs / C7

By the numbers People between the ages of 55 and 64 had the highest entrepreneurial index – a figure that measures how many of them started a new business each year – for four of the six years between 2005 and 2010.

Winter getaways, with the parents in tow cuisine, zydeco-blaring bars, live jazz and plantation tours.

For smaller crowds, better bargains and less bacchanalia, avoid Mardi Gras, which falls on Feb. 21.

Where to stay: The Hyatt Regency New Orleans, which reopened in October after a $275 million renovation, has rooms from $189 a night. The stylish International House is near the city’s Children’s Museum and has rooms from $159 a night.

By Michelle Higgins New York Times News Service

Suddenly it’s the end of January and you realize the children will be off for Presidents’ Day next month — an ideal opportunity to squeeze in a short family vacation.

Ideally, your destination will have enough activities to occupy the children — or at least wear them out — so the grown-ups can actually relax and have some fun, too.

How about Scottsdale, Ariz., where children can enjoy mornings spent horseback riding cowboy-style or exploring nature trails in the Sonoran Desert, followed by a mellow afternoon at the pool for the grown-ups and gallery hopping in the evening? Or go your separate ways — the children to ski school, while you hit the spa — in Mont Tremblant, Quebec. Want something you will all enjoy together?

Explore ancient Mayan temples in Mexico, bike along Miami’s shore, or icetrek through gorges in Banff, Alberta.

Here are nine family-friendly winter escapes you can run

Banff, Alberta

Jennifer Zdon / New York Times News Service

A father and his daughter get a behind-the-scenes glimpse of Blain Kern’s Mardi Gras World in New Orleans. There are a number of G-rated Mardi Gras celebrations children can enjoy.

off to for a weekend or longer at a range of prices.

New Orleans For the kids: Streetcar rides

($1.25), cemetery tours, beignets and king cake. There are also pre-Mardi Gras parades with glittering floats and G-rated bead throwing,

including one specifically for kids, the Krewe of Brid, on Friday, Feb. 3, in the Lakeview neighborhood.

For the grown-ups: Creole

For the kids: Spotting wolf tracks on snowshoe tours, yelling “mush!” from a dogsled and trying out gentle slopes for beginner skiers and boarders. For ages 8 and up, there are also ice walks through frozen gorges.

Banff Adventures Unlimited offers four-hour ice walks through Grotto Canyon, past unusual rock formations, Native rock art and icefalls (40 Canadian dollars for children 8 to 12; 62 dollars for adults; Canadian dollars are about the same in value as U.S. dollars).

SUNDAY, JANUARY 29, 2012 • THE BULLETIN

A & A

Man wants to cook up a storm without thunder Dear Abby: I’m fortunate to be married to an amazing woman. There’s just one problem. She’s convinced that I’m going to burn down the house.

She constantly nags me when I’m cooking, even when I’m literally standing over the pots.

I find her tone — and the idea that I don’t know how to use a stove — insulting.

She insists I have the burner on too high when I’m making spaghetti, and it will somehow result in a catastrophe far worse than a ruined meal.

I find it extremely annoying because I am 30, served my country honorably in Iraq, have been making spaghetti since I was 12 and have never caused any sort of kitchen fire.

My wife hasn’t cooked for me in more than a year. That doesn’t upset me because I know she works hard to earn money for our family. But if she doesn’t cook for me and I’m not allowed to cook for me, then how am I supposed to eat?

Is there anything I can do to make my wife understand that I can be trusted to make a simple meal on a simple stove? — Pasta Guy in Philly Dear Pasta Guy: Probably not, if you haven’t been able to convey that message in more than a year. So insist that she stay out of the kitchen while you’re cooking, or prepare your meals after she has left for work. Or expand your repertoire beyond spaghetti and make a salad instead.

Dear Abby: I’m a 15-yearold high school student with a wonderful life, but I’m not happy. I get good grades, have many great friends, a weekend job and an amazing boyfriend.

(He’s 17.)

The problem is I’m bored.

I have had only one technical boyfriend besides the one I have now. I had two “flings� where I got involved with guys without an official or physical relationship. I know most teenagers would kill for a boyfriend like mine who buys them things and tells them

DEAR A B B Y they’re beautiful. But I want a relationship with ups and downs — drama and fighting.

Am I crazy to want to date other people, or is this normal? — Lost in Love Dear Lost in Love: You’re not crazy. It is normal for some teenage girls to want variety.

However, please don’t equate the kind of drama you see on TV and in films with what real life is supposed to be about.

Relationships filled with drama and fighting do not have happy outcomes. They can lead to bruised hearts and sometimes violence.

If you want to end the relationship with your boyfriend, by all means do so. But before you become involved in the kind of relationship you think would be exciting, please discuss it with your mother or another trusted adult, because a mature person with insight should share some of it with you.

Dear Abby: My mother gives gifts — sometimes very generous ones — but always with strings attached. She also keeps a record of which recipients have responded with appropriate gratitude (cards, phone calls) and those who have not. Those individuals on the “not� list are ridiculed behind their backs and slighted in other ways.

My mother considers herself a “good Christian,� but I believe her actions are selfish, and I have conflicting emotions when I receive gifts from her. What do you think? — Conflicted in Wisconsin Dear Conflicted: I think you should always thank your mother graciously and appropriately for her generosity when she gives you a gift, if only because it is considered good manners. — Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Horoscope: Happy Birthday for Sunday, Jan. 29, 2012

By Jacqueline Bigar You seem more than willing to make adjustments this year. On the other hand, many doors could close when you give up being a risk-taker. Think carefully. If you are single, you could meet your next sweetie just by going to the cleaners! If you are attached, don’t take your sweetie as part of the landscape, or you could become the landscape. Do what is needed to preserve the excitement between you. TAURUS can be a stick in the mud.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH Stopping you could be impossible right now. A question arises later today: Why did you partake in a situation when, for you, it might have been better to turn away? Tonight: Remember, you learn from such experiences.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH Whether lazy or just really tired, you will respond accordingly.

Slowing down by reading the Sunday paper or watching a good movie isn’t all that bad. With your resilience, you will recharge in less than 24 hours! Tonight: Your smile is a winner.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Your situation causes some angst, as you might not see eye to eye with a child or loved one. You might feel like he or she is walking all over you and ignoring your desires. Don’t personalize this episode. Tonight: Express your feelings rather than act out.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Try another approach. Your ability to move through an issue could be very different from many.

Let others catch up. Tonight: Get a head start on tomorrow.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH You have a strong sense of adventure. Hop in the car and take off. If you look around and notice that you are alone, please note that others might not lust for new experiences as much as you do.

Tonight: Slowing down graciously.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Deal directly with one other person, knowing full well what lies ahead. You see matters somewhat

differently, and you are able to convince that person of your logic.

Tonight: Dinner with loved ones and family.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH You could be more experimental than usual. In a totally different setting, you might meet different people. Later, you might regret a decision, so slow down on making any changes. Time is your ally now, not the enemy. Tonight: Let a loved one explain his or her thoughts.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Your sixth sense allows greater give-and-take. You know what you need to be doing as well as what you would like to squeeze in. For all practical purposes, follow through on your obligations.

Trust that you will find time for frivolous fun. Tonight: Go for some R and R. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH A child or loved one twists your arm, so to speak. Off you go! Living life as another person would be fun, to say the least. You’ll gain great insight into this person.

Tonight: A little tired?

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH Take a hint from Taurus: Stay close to home. Not every moment needs to be action filled. A quiet day might fit the bill. As conscientious as you are, some of you might start on your taxes. For now, play it low-key.

People could get grumpy at the “Tâ€? word. Tonight: There is no reason to push ‌ is there?

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH You tend to be outspoken, even without an invitation to do so. Others might not want to hear your opinions. Look around; see the reactions. Use more care in your choice of audience. Tonight: Rethink how you share your thoughts.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Getting through certain financial details might be very important before making any more commitments. It is better to side with a conservative approach than to create a risk-laden path. You might not see a situation in those terms. Still, slow down some.

Tonight: Out at a favorite spot. Š 2011 by King Features Syndicate

For the grown-ups: Three mountain resorts (Park City

Mountain Resort, Deer Valley Resort and Canyons Resort) to choose from and more than 100 restaurants and bars, boutiques and galleries. In search of adrenaline-inducing activities?

At Utah Olympic Park, used for the 2002 Winter Games, it costs $200 to race down the bobsled track with a pilot.

Where to stay: Chateau Après in downtown Park City, a short walk to Park City Mountain Resort and less than five miles from Deer Valley Resort or Canyons Resort by free public transportation. Rates start at $110 a night for two people, $135 for three, and $160 for four, including daily breakfast.

The Jupiter Inn, a free shuttle ride away from the slopes, has upscale one bedroom condominiums with pullout couches from $310 a night.

Riviera Maya, Mexico For the kids: Miles of white sand beaches, freshwater caves called cenotes — complete with stalagmites and stalactites — where you can snorkel or dive, and ancient Mayan temples.

Admission to the Tulum ruins, on a bluff facing the sea, is 57 pesos or about $4 at 13 pesos to the dollar, a person. Guided tours range from 500 to 700 pesos depending on group size.

For the grown-ups: Ditto.

Adults will also appreciate some high-end pampering for less. Mexico’s drug war has cast a pall over the entire country and scared tourists away from popular resort areas like the Riviera Maya, which has remained safe for visitors. As a result, “they are practically giving it away,” said Marrilee Foukal McLean of Alabama World Travel, a Virtuoso travel agency in Montgomery, Ala. Where to stay: Ana y José Charming Hotel & Spa in Tulum has family-friendly suites from $342 a night. Grand Velas Riviera Maya offers butler service, a 75,000-square-foot spa, a spacious infinity pool and a Kids Club. Rates start at $332 a person per night, based on double occupancy. Children up to age 12 are 2 for 1 at $105 per night.

San Juan, Puerto Rico For the kids: Kite-flying in front of an old Spanish fortress (El Morro), feeding pigeons that inhabit the Old City walls (Parque de las Palomas), hiking to waterfalls in El Yunque rain forest, less than an hour’s drive away. Admission to El Yunque National Forest, open daily from 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m., is free. El Portal Rain Forest Center, near the entrance, has interactive displays, a gift shop and restrooms, and is open daily from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is $4; free for ages 15

and under.

For the grown-ups: Wandering the cobblestone streets of Old San Juan, exploring the arts scene in Santurce and sunbathing on soft sand beaches.

Another plus: Puerto Rico is a United States territory so passports aren’t required.

Where to stay: The Caribe Hilton, where children under 18 stay free and children under 5 eat free, offers weekly activities situated around two swimming pools, a 17-acre tropical park and a private beach. Rates start at $249 a night for rooms with two double beds and a balcony if booked in January for travel in early February. Wyndham Rio Mar Beach Resort, east of San Juan near Luquillo Beach, is offering a Winter Super Sale with savings up to 40 percent off for stays of four nights or more booked by Feb. 2. Rates begin at $148 a night.

Scottsdale, Ariz.

For the kids: Cactus-dotted nature trails in the Sonoran Desert, Indian artifacts, a railroad park with real steam locomotives, and plenty of Western-flavored activities, from cowboy-style horseback riding to visits to ghost towns like Goldfield Ghost Town, less than an hour away, which stages gunfights (free admission) on weekends. There are also, for a fee, train rides, mine tours and gold-panning demonstrations in Goldfield.

For the grown-ups: Gallery hopping, sunning by the pool and a high-energy night-life scene in a manageable downtown. For architecture buffs, there are also guided tours of Taliesin West, which Frank Lloyd Wright began building in 1937 as his personal winter home, studio and architectural

Simple charms on a serene isle off Tanzania

By Brendan Spiegel

If you go

New York Times News Service

When seen on arrival by air, Mafia Island doesn’t appear to be much more than a crescent-shaped splash of green off the eastern coast of Africa. Slightly smaller than New York City, the verdant island, 20 miles from mainland Tanzania, is densely covered in coconut trees, with nothing but green flora visible in the interior and just a few intermittent stretches of white sand breaking up the coast.

Just a half-hour after leaving Dar es Salaam, our shaky 12-seater approached a dirt-and-gravel runway. As we made our descent, a few sparks of civilization flashed into view: a lone wooden dhow patrolled the coastline; a trio of gleeful children pointed up at the plane from the edge of a marshy mangrove; two women wrapped in colorful kangas, traditional African dresses, and headscarves walked by with large clay pots balanced on their heads.

With just a few thousand annual visitors, Mafia Island is hardly a tourist hot spot, and has few of the high-end accouterments that draw hordes of honeymooners to other Indian Ocean isles like the Seychelles, Mauritius and Zanzibar. Over the past decade, though, it has built a small but passionate following among travelers drawn by its simple charms and serene atmosphere.

Serene, that is, on land; underwater, a protected marine preserve offers some of the most magnificent diving and snorkeling in the region, perhaps the world. Sea turtles, stingrays and the occasional white-tipped reef shark troll these waters nearly year-round.

Trade post to tourist spot While few modern travelers know its name, Mafia has drawn international visitors since at least the 11th century, when it served as an important trading base for Shirazi sailors who controlled the region. Later, the island became a hub for the Middle East slave trade, then a military base for German, and eventually British, colonists. (While Italians number high among the expats running lodges on Mafia today, the island’s name has nothing to do with organized crime; it likely derives from the ancient Arabic word for archipelago.) For the past century, Mafia and its 40,000 residents have been mostly ignored by the outside world, reached only by slow ferries from Tanzania.

That began to change in 1995, when the World Wildlife Fund and other environmental activists successfully lobbied the Tanzanian government to protect the southern half of the island and the surrounding waters as the Mafia Island Marine Park. The 510-squaremile preserve is home to 400 species of fish and 48 types of corals, as well as giant green sea turtles and at least a few nearly extinct manatee-like dugong.

With fishing and other industry sharply curtailed inside the preserve, Mafia’s rich reefs soon began attracting the attention of divers. After fishermen on the western side of the island discovered that friendly whale sharks liked the plankton-rich waters there, boats taking groups out to swim with the brightly spotted creatures became rea-

GETTING THERE Coastal Aviation (coastal.cc) and Tropical Air (tropicalair. co.tz) run daily, 30-minute flights between Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, and Mafia (from $145).

ACCOMMODATIONS Note that many hotels will quote prices per person, including meals, as there are few restaurants on the island.

Most lodges close during the rainy season, April and May. U.S. dollars are accepted.

son for water-bound visitors to stay longer.

Regular air service from Dar es Salaam, Tanzania’s main point of entry, was added in 2006. The number of lodges and guest houses on the island has mushroomed from just a handful a few years ago to roughly two dozen today.

In 2010 the number of international visitors was up 300 percent from four years earlier, according to local government statistics — although the total number was still a modest 4,100 people.

An antidote to Zanzibar During a recent visit with my girlfriend, our first stop was the standard tourist pilgrimage to Zanzibar. While I had no complaints about the white sand beaches, ample hammocks and tropical cocktails, I was turned off by the overdeveloped oceanfront and omnipresent beachside hawkers. I craved a more farflung beach break before returning home, and every time I opened my guidebook my eyes kept floating back to the smaller island south of Zanzibar, about which I knew little.

Three weeks later, after returning to Dar es Salaam, we left for Mafia, where we spent Christmas weekend at Mafia Island Lodge, inside the marine park. The sandy, semicircular strip of beachfront was the perfect antidote to busy Zanzibar. No more than a handful of tourists lounged on the swinging wooden beach beds, and when a group of four of us sailed out on a small dhow to snorkel among schools of zebra fish and bright red corals, we had a prime slice of tropical reef completely to ourselves.

Those reefs are in part preserved by a $20 per-person, per-night fee, paid by tourists at the park entrance (U.S. dollars are accepted all over the island). A scattering of budget guest houses have recently popped up just beyond the

park’s boundaries for those wishing to avoid the fee — including an outsize number of genuinely environmentally friendly options.

“Most people who make the effort to come to Mafia are of a particular mind-set,” said Michelle Vickers, who was raised in Tanzania and lived in Britain before returning four years ago with her husband, John, to open Ras Mbisi Lodge, an eco-conscious resort on the west side of the island. “They aren’t looking for incredibly high-end luxury.

They just want a place to chill out, relax, and not feel that because they’ve chosen to stay somewhere sustainable that it has to be hard work.”

Rustic luxury After two days of snorkeling and swimming inside the marine park, I headed off on my own to Ras Mbisi Lodge. Hailing one of a handful of the 4x4 taxis that ply the island’s dirt roads, I reached the thatchedroof compound after a bumpy, 40-minute drive. There, luxury beachside bandas, or cabins, are built from sustainable, indigenous coconut wood, lighted with biogas-powered electricity and stocked with solar-heated water.

The resort blends seamlessly into the coconut groves, with nary another unnatural object visible along the fivemile expanse of beach that fronts the property. On an early evening walk, I shared the entire stretch with just a few others: a fisherman tending to his dugout canoe; two women hunched over in the low tide, digging for clams; and dozens of sand crabs that skittered out of their holes and into the sea.

Though the lodge arranges excursions, including trips out to swim with whale sharks, I chose to spend my time reading alone on the beach with nothing in sight but coconut trees and an endless expanse of aquamarine water. I was

happy to be disturbed only when summoned for meals centered around the catch of the day — turmeric-scented, beer-battered squid one evening; hot green chiles atop fresh filets of a local snapper known as chugu the next.

Not everything went smoothly, though nothing was complaint-worthy. A generator that provided electricity failed at one point, but I was able to read via the hand-cranked, battery-free flashlight provided to each room. The solarpowered water supply worked great the first morning, but I made do with a cold shower on the second.

Smaller footprints Ras Mbisi isn’t alone among eco-lodges; others take the small-footprint efforts even farther. Manzie Omar Mangochie, the district commissioner of Mafia, said there is a conscious effort by the government to develop the tourism industry without overwhelming the island and its residents.

“We want more development and we want more tourism here, but we don’t want it to turn into another Zanzibar,” he said. “The essence of Mafia isn’t tourism. It is about conservation and minimizing human impact.”

This emphasis on maintaining limits isn’t just talk. There are no big international hotel chains on the island, and most of the lodges have committed to hiring only locals. In 2010, a huge trance music festival that had previously taken place in Greece began to set up an offshoot event here, but island officials quashed the project and tickets had to be refunded.

The big question, of course, is whether Mafia can maintain its laid-back milieu and dedication to conservation if its popularity continues to grow. A tarmac runway that would allow larger planes to land is in the works, as is a jetty that could welcome additional ferry travelers from the mainland.

“Of course there will be more hotels,” Mangochie said.

“More flights means we will need more rooms. But our goal here is to find a balance between welcoming visitors and protecting what we already have.”

Money: a matter of shared interest

By Kristi Gustafson Barlette Albany (N.Y.) Times Union

The Husband and I had a great meal on New Year’s Eve. When talking with an acquaintance about our evening, he asked who paid. “Huh,� I said, thinking he believed some restaurant angel came in and picked up the tab. “Who paid? You or (The Husband),� asked Mark. “We’re married.

So it doesn’t really matter anymore.�

Not true — it’s 2011 and couples should not share finances, explained Mark, who has been married more than a decade. It leads to checking account confusion.

No married-and-sharing couple I know has complained of “confusion.�

Sharing an account — or not — was a hot topic on the Times Union’s On the Edge blog earlier this month.

A poll on the blog garnered nearly 1,000 responses and found 45 percent of married readers say they have a joint bank account. Thirtysix percent opt for joint and separate in their household, while just 19 percent said they keep their accounts separate, as Mark favors.

Financial guru Suze Orman told Oprah Magazine back in ’07 she’s for balance, writing “both of you are to keep separate checking accounts and open a joint account from which you’ll pay all shared expenses. This joint fund will be a testing ground to see how you commingle your finances.�

Jose MuĂąoz and Consuelo Ortiz de MuĂąoz, of Culver, celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary Jan. 21 by renewing their vows at St. Thomas Catholic Church in Redmond and with a reception at the Redmond Senior Center, hosted by their children.

The couple were married Jan. 17, 1962, in Mexico.

They have six children, Maria (and Arturo Carbajal),

Salvador (and Arminda), Miguel (and Ivolina), Gerardo (and Erika), all of Culver, Noe (and Gloria), of La Pine, and Yadira, of Redmond; 11 grandchildren; and two great-grandchildren.

Mr. and Mrs. MuĂąoz retired in 2007. They enjoy being involved in cultural events. They enjoy spending time at casinos and making carnitas.

They have lived in Central Oregon for 28 years.

Dennis and Diane Sienko named their first vintage of wine, this 2005 Madeline Merlot, after their granddaughter.

Continued from C1 When they moved to Bend, the Sienkos were hardpressed to find a suitable place where they could store the 100 cases of wine they collected while living in Sacramento, Calif., where he worked with the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation and she was a teacher.

“There was no place to store our wine so we created a business to store our wine,” Dennis Sienko said, explaining what led them to create the Bend Wine Cellar’s first incarnation — a series of climate-controlled storage lockers they rented out to other wine connoisseurs — in May 2005.

Bend Wine Cellar now rents space in its storage lockers under the Trattoria Sbandati restaurant to more than 50 people, Dennis Sienko said.

The couple started the wine cellar’s retail operation, which features their favorite wines from the Pacific Northwest, six months later.

The couple also make their own wines, including a 2005 merlot they named after their granddaughter, Avery Madeline, and made with grapes picked the month she was born. Diane Sienko has also teamed up with two local chefs to run a series of monthly wine tasting seminars for women.

“I just wanted to play golf,” said Dennis Sienko, who doesn’t regret the fact that his postretirement life didn’t turn out the way he had planned.

According to the Kauffman Foundation’s 2011 Index of Entrepreneurial Activity, 290 of every 100,000 adults, or 0.29 percent of the population ages 20 to 64, who didn’t already own a business started one in 2005. For 55- to 64-year-olds, that figure — which the foundation calls its entrepreneurial index — was 0.34 percent.

People in the 55- to 64-yearold age group had the highest entrepreneurial index in 2005, according to the foundation’s estimates, and held on to this honor in 2006, 2008 and 2009 as they saw their score rise to 0.39 percent in 2010. The only ones to beat them were people ages 35 to 44, who had an entrepreneurial index that was only 0.05 percent higher than their elders in 2006 and 0.01 percent higher in 2010.

The foundation’s most recent estimates do not include any data for people over age 64, said Dane Spangler, who works as the foundation’s research director. But Spangler estimates this age group is ex-

She is giving a consciously theatrical performance, because artifice is her best defense against the mortal pain and immortal darkness that await her.

New York Times News Service

NEW YORK — Cynthia Nixon’s gaze has its own grammar. Playing a terminally ill English professor in the inescapably moving new revival of Margaret Edson’s “Wit,” the 1999 Pulitzer Prize winner for drama, Nixon seems to construct perfectly composed, illuminating and surprising thoughts with her sky-blue eyes — the kind of thoughts that if you saw them in print would make you stop and savor and reread.

It’s not that Vivian Bearing, Nixon’s character, doesn’t possess a sharp and eloquent tongue. She is, please note, an esteemed and intimidating scholar of the metaphysical poetry of John Donne. But the eyes are what first hook and then hold you through this immaculately staged 100minute journey through the final months of one woman’s life. And while the eyes are usually in agreement with the weighty, exquisitely arranged words Vivian speaks, they also hint at something more profound, which both eludes and informs her intelligence.

Large performance Though I was seated close to the stage of the Samuel J. Friedman Theater, I have the feeling that Nixon’s gaze would read legibly in the farthest reaches of the balcony.

This is a performance that is large and lucid and delicate at the same time, and it justifies Manhattan Theater Club’s decision to mount what is essentially a chamber piece on Broadway. As directed with a persuasive combination of showmanship and sensitivity by Lynne Meadow, this production magnifies the innate theatricality of Edson’s play without compromising the firm emotional truth at its center.

My previous experiences of “Wit” have been in more intimate settings: the small off-Broadway theater where

Michael Countryman and Cynthia Nixon are starring in the play “Wit” at the Friedman Theater in New York. Nixon stars in the Manhattan Theater Club’s revival of the piece, written by Margaret Edson, which focuses on a Donne scholar dying of cancer.

it opened in New York in 1998, with Kathleen Chalfant as Vivian, and in front of my television screen, for the 2001 adaptation directed by Mike Nichols and starring Emma Thompson. Both allowed their leading actresses to create a sense of a private conversation with their audiences, as Vivian drolly annotated her rigorous and dehumanizing medical treatment for Stage 4 ovarian cancer.

Chalfant, a deep-voiced stage veteran of commanding reserve, and Thompson, an Oscar-winning British actress with a crisp air of forgiving irony, were both splendid in a role that fitted them more naturally than it does Nixon. Whether playing a bereaved suburban mother in David Lindsay-Abaire’s “Rabbit Hole” (for which she won the Tony) or the brittle lawyer on HBO’s “Sex and the City,” Nixon has no difficulty con-

veying intelligence.

But her persona has always had a stinging, modern-woman freshness and air of spontaneous engagement that don’t quite jibe with more mannered roles. The only time she felt utterly false to me onstage was when she played the flamboyant, posturing schoolteacher of “The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie” for the New Group.

And I had qualms about her taking on the pedantic, poetry-steeped, solitary Vivian.

Cap and gown In the first moments of this production, Nixon threatens to fulfill my fears. Wearing only a hospital gown and a baseball cap to cover her shaved head, her Vivian has the strained, exaggerated delivery of someone consciously playing a part. But as she continues to speak, this artificial, slightly tinny quality matches how she is describing her situation.

As conceived by Edson, Vivian is the author, director and chief critic of this depiction of her life as a patient, with flashbacks to her life as a teacher.

She offers withering asides on how her story is told: on its cliches and tidy reversals, ironies that feel so much more facile than those spun by Donne (1572-1631), the poet who wrote “Death Be Not Proud” (which she had previously regarded as a cerebral puzzle to be dissected). She is giving a consciously theatrical performance, because artifice is her best defense against the mortal pain and immortal darkness that await her.

Such archness is kind of reassuring, especially given Vivian’s gallows gauntness and pallor. It’s comforting in the way that seriously ill people are when they crack jokes to put visitors at ease. “I was dismayed to discover the play would contain elements of ...

humor,” Vivian says in her prefatory address to the audience. And it’s true that this “Wit” is often broadly funny in a way I hadn’t remembered.

But wily craftswomen of the stage that they are, Nixon and Meadow are seducing us into feeling at ease with this “it’s only a play” business, the better to lure us into more uncomfortable territory. As “Wit” continues, it and Nixon’s performance cut closer and closer to the bone. And the emotional transparency I associate with this actress becomes more and more pronounced, revealing the unquantifiable terror as well as the skull beneath the skin.

This evolution is of a piece with how Edson, a public schoolteacher in Atlanta, has built “Wit,” her only play to date. The words and intellectual constructs to which Vivian has devoted her life grow increasingly insubstantial before the hard physical facts of her disease.

Mind and body Edson doesn’t trivialize Vivian’s devotion to Donne’s poetry, which is quoted and analyzed in surprisingly accessible ways here. But in artfully paralleling Vivian’s literary research with the obsessive medical research of an abstracted young doctor (and former student of Vivian’s) who attends her (a very good Greg Keller), “Wit” gently re-

minds us of how the seemingly infinite mind divorces itself from the finiteness of the body that sustains it. The industry of thought gets us through life, until life abruptly makes it known that it is disposing of us. Then words — and charts and pictures and poses — fail.

Medical treatments of cancer have changed since “Wit” was written. So has the treatment of cancer as a subject of popular entertainment.

Audiences familiar with current fare like the television series “The Big C” and the film “50/50” may be a little weary of the hospital archetypes who show up here: the inhuman doctors and the caring, of-thepeople nurse with a human touch. But they are all given credible life by a cast that includes Michael Countryman, Carra Patterson (wonderfully unforced as that very nurse) and Suzanne Bertish (as Vivian’s academic mentor).

Some of the underscoring of themes here could be cut.

By now “Wit” doesn’t need to draw its connections for us as explicitly as it does. But this fine production — designed with compelling cleanness

by Santo Loquasto (set) and Peter Kaczorowski (lighting) — understands the artistic impact of stark simplicity. And it makes sure that nothing gets in the way of our aching awareness of a pair of glistening, intense blue eyes that are about to close forever.

Robert Kennedy’s wife stars in daughter’s ‘Ethel’ at Sundance

By David Germain The Associated Press

PARK CITY, Utah — Ethel Kennedy prefers coming to the Sundance Film Festival when she’s not the star of a movie.

She has been to Sundance in the past to see films by her daughter, documentary filmmaker Rory Kennedy. This time, the widow of U.S. Sen. Robert Kennedy is the focus of her daughter’s film, the Sundance premiere “Ethel.”

Ethel Kennedy said she likes it better coming to Sundance “just to see Rory’s films.”

Though initially reluctant when her daughter proposed the documentary, Ethel Kennedy opens up on screen with candid recollections about the family, including falling in love at first sight with her future husband on a ski trip to Canada.

“He was standing in front of an open fireplace,” she said in an interview alongside her daughter. “I walked in the door and turned and saw him, and I thought, ‘Whoa.’ ”

Culver senior takes second at Reser’s tournament

Ducks, Beavers collide today EUGENE — Coming off home sweeps of the Los Angeles schools last weekend, the Oregon Ducks and the Oregon State Beavers face off this afternoon in the season’s first men’s basketball Civil War game.

Today’s game will be the 336th between the two longtime rivals, but it will be the first meeting of the two teams as members of the firstyear Pac-12 Conference.

Tipoff at Oregon’s Matthew Knight Arena is set for 3:30 p.m.

The Ducks (15-5 overall, 6-2 Pac-12 Conference) have won four in a row and are looking to stay in contention for the league lead. The Beavers (13-7, 3-5) have won two straight and are aiming to beat Oregon for just the eighth time in 37 meetings dating back to the 1994-95 season.

Oregon State leads the all-time series over the Ducks, 183-152.

Both teams boast conference player-ofthe-year candidates.

The Beavers are led by Jared Cunningham, a 6foot-4-inch junior guard who is averaging 17.8 points, 3.7 rebounds and 3.0 assists per game. The Ducks feature 6-6 junior forward E.J. Singler, who is averaging 12.9 points and 5.1 rebounds per contest.

Today’s game will be televised live by Root Sports.

Bulletin staff report HILLSBORO — Culver senior Jesus Retano placed second at 152 pounds at the prestigious Reser’s Tournament of Champions on Saturday, falling to Josh Christensen of Dallas 4-1 in the tournament finals.

Retano was the lone Central Oregon wrestler to advance to the finals of the two-day tournament. Crook County’s McKennan Buckner (120 pounds) and Redmond’s Ryan Haney (126) and Boomer Fleming (160) all placed third.

“This is still Oregon’s grandest show in a lot of ways,” said Culver coach J.D. Alley, whose Bulldogs were the lone Class 2A/1A squad at the 24-team event. “We’re happy to get one Bulldog here (in the finals).”

Final team scores were not available at press time.

Retano, who is looking to win his first state title this season, knocked off Stephen Doman of Class 6A Canby in the semifinals, 5-3. Doman, who was the top-rated 152-pound wrestler in the state in the latest Oregon Wrestling Forum rankings, had defeated Retano 5-4 last week in the finals of the Dallas Tournament.

Buckner, who won the Class 5A 103-pound state title as a sophomore in 2010, lost to Sweet Home’s Colton Schilling by fall in the 120pound semifinals before winning twice in the consolation bracket to claim third place. Haney defeated Collbran Meeker of Crook County in the 126-pound third-place match, and Fleming knocked off John Morin, of Hillsboro, for his top-three finish.

Redmond and Crook County are on the mat Thursday against one another in a nonleague dual in Prineville. Culver is off until Saturday, when the Bulldogs go to the Heppner Tournament.

NFL COMMENTARY

Snowboarder Joshua Glen gets air and does a board grab off a jump while competing in the finals during the slopestyle event at the Gatorade Free Flow Tour at Mt. Bachelor on Saturday. In its third year, the tour offers amateur snowboarders and free-skiers age 21 and younger the chance to pre-qualify for a spot in next season’s Winter Dew Tour. The circuit includes events at eight resorts across the country this season. The Bachelor stop of the Free Flow Tour continues today with a rail jam competition from 10 to 11:30 a.m.

t’s hardly a coincidence that the weirdest pass ever thrown in the history of the Super Bowl was launched by — who else? — a kicker.

It came near the end of the big game in 1973, with the Miami Dolphins already leading 14-0 and looking to add a field goal to put the game out of reach. Instead, Washington Redskins defenders poured into the backfield and blocked the kick, sending the ball bounding backward. There it was scooped up by a 5-foot-7 immigrant from Cyprus named Garo Yepremian, who soon after arriving in this country watched a few minutes of a game on TV and decided on the spot the way to succeed in America was to play professional football.

On the run for his life at that moment, with the ball in his hands and only a vague idea of what to do next, Yepremian awkwardly threw it up for grabs — a peace offering to the pack of wolves pursuing him — then batted it into the air a second time after the first pass wound up back in his arms. It was eventually corralled by Redskin safety Mike Bass, who returned it unhindered up the left sideline for a touchdown.

S B Basketball • Gibson leads Oregon State women past Oregon 67-60: Ali Gibson had a careerhigh 23 points to lead Oregon State to a 67-60 win against rival Oregon on Saturday in Corvallis. Oregon State (13-7, 4-5 Pac12) scored nine straight points on a trio of three-pointers in the final 4 minutes to take control in what had been a back-and-forth game. Amanda Johnson had 16 points and eight rebounds for Oregon (11-10, 3-6).

Motor sports • Fogarty’s car gets repairs: One former Grand-Am champion was knocked out of the Rolex 24 At Daytona less than an hour into the race, and another lost several laps a quarter of the way into the twice-aroundthe-clock event. Max Angelelli took the No. 10 Chevrolet to the garage with an engine issue 25 minutes into the race. The team sent the car back out after a few minutes, but Angelelli was back in the garage for good moments later in the 50th running of the prestigious sports car event. About five hours

later, Alex Gurney took the No. 99 Chevrolet behind the wall after hitting something on the 3.56-mile road course and puncturing a hole in the radiator. Gurney, a two-time series champion and two-time race champion along with co-driver Jon Fogarty, of Bend, lost four laps during repairs.

Mixed martial arts • Evans unanimously outpoints Davis at UFC Chicago: Rashad Evans unanimously outpointed fellow former Big Ten wrestler Phil Davis in a five-round light heavyweight fight at UFC Chicago on Saturday night. Evans (22-1-1) handed Davis (9-1) his first loss of his young career in a fight that was scored 50-45. Evans moved into position to regain the light heavyweight title from Jon Jones.

Evans, 4-0 since losing the belt to Lyoto Machida in May 2009, will face Jones — who was in attendance — on April 21 in UFC 145.

Figure skating • Wagner wins first title in night of flawed skating: Ashley Wagner won her first title at the U.S. Figure Skating Cham-

pionships on Saturday in San Jose, Calif., salvaging what was an otherwise dismal night of splats and spills. She finished with a score of 187.02 points and then watched as two-time champion Alissa Czisny and Agnes Zawadzki melted down. Czisny finished second and Zawadzki wound up third.

Earlier Saturday, Meryl Davis and Charlie White claimed their fourth straight title in ice dance. The world champions earned a total score of 191.54 points, nearly 13 better than siblings Maia and Alex Shibutani.

• Vintage Plushenko wins seventh European title: Defying his aching left knee and advancing age, Evgeni Plushenko had a career-best performance Saturday to win his seventh European figure skating title in Sheffield, England. Throwing in an unexpected quadruple jump to a compelling routine, the 2006 Olympic champion scored a personal-best 176.52 points in the free skate to total 261.23 — his highest overall mark. On a day to remember for a relative veteran of the women’s competition, 24year-old Italian Carolina Kostner captured a fourth continental title in a six-year span by executing a flawless, if limited, free skate to

build on her lead from the short program.

Football • North claims 23-13 Senior Bowl victory: Michigan State’s Kirk Cousins and Wisconsin’s Russell Wilson threw touchdown passes to lead the North to a 23-13 victory over the South in the Senior Bowl in Mobile, Ala., on Saturday. Purdue kicker Carson Wiggs put it away with his third short field goal, a 28yarder with 4:11 left in the showcase for senior NFL prospects. Boise State’s Kellen Moore led that clinching 13-play drive that consumed 8:36 with the help of a running clock.

• 49er Aldon Smith faces DUI charge in Florida: San Francisco 49ers linebacker Aldon Smith was charged Saturday with driving under the influence in Miami Beach.

Miami-Dade County jail records show Smith was booked Saturday morning and held on $1,000 bond. Jail records did not show whether Smith was represented by an attorney. A Miami-Dade County Corrections spokeswoman said Smith was arrested by Miami Beach police.

PAC-12 ROUNDUP

No. 1 Kentucky wins 13th straight Late block helps The Associated Press BATON ROUGE, La. — Something clicked inside Terrence Jones when he saw teammate Anthony Davis lying on his back in pain after a hard collision under the LSU basket.

“When stuff like that happens to one of your brothers, you don’t like that,” Jones said. “The only way we could redeem that is by continuing to play hard, just show it through the score.”

Jones did precisely that, highlighting a season-high 27-point performance with a 13-0 run on his own, and No. 1 Kentucky pulled away in the second half for a 74-50 win over struggling LSU on Saturday.

Jones also grabbed nine rebounds, and his dominance became a talking point for Kentucky coach John Calipari, who said he hopes his 6-foot-8, 244-pound sophomore power forward will assert himself more during the remainder of the season.

“My point to him is ... if this is who you are, then you should be this every game,” Calipari said.

“That’s what we’ve all been waiting on and he makes us different.”

Davis finished with 16 points and 10 rebounds for Kentucky (21-1 7-0 Southeastern), which has won 13 straight. Johnny O’Bryant III had 12 points and nine rebounds for LSU (12-9, 2-5), which has lost five of six.

NBA ROUNDUP

The Associated Press TUCSON, Ariz. — With a once-big lead down to two and the crowd louder than any he had heard before, Washington freshman Tony Wroten found a way to shut everything out and carry his team to what could be a season-defining victory.

He had already done it at Madison Square Garden, so why not Arizona’s McKale Center as well?

Wroten added to his growing list of gamechanging plays, swooping in to swat Josiah Turner’s layup at the buzzer to preserve Washington’s 69-67 win over Arizona Saturday night.

“He’s been that way all year,” Washington coach Lorenzo Romar said. “At Madison Square Garden against Duke, he took over. He just has no problem taking a game and putting it on his shoulders.”

Quiet, due in part to foul trouble in the first half, Wroten took over at times in the second for the Huskies (14-7, 7-2 Pac-12), scoring 12 of his 17 points. Terrence Ross took a turn for a while, scoring 13 of his 16 points in the half.

Arizona (14-8, 5-4) was sloppy with the ball, committing 15 turnovers, and couldn’t keep Washington off the glass, giving up 18 offensive rebounds that led to 17 second-chance points.

The Wildcats clawed their way back behind Solomon Hill, who scored 19 of his 28 points in the second half, but they came up just short when Wroten swatted away Turner’s shot.

NBA SCOREBOARD

Bucks extend Lakers’ road woes with 100-89 victory The Associated Press MILWAUKEE — The Milwaukee Bucks already were trying to cope with the recent loss of center Andrew Bogut to an injury.

Then they lost Stephen Jackson to a suspension just a few hours before tipoff.

They didn’t need either player to beat Los Angeles on Saturday night — another sign of just how bad the Lakers have been on the road this season.

Drew Gooden scored 23 points and the undermanned, undersized Bucks beat the Lakers 100-89.

“I mean, what are you going to do?” Milwaukee’s Mike Dunleavy said. “Bogut’s not going to come in with a better ankle. We’re not going to get Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. So we know that we’ve got to play these big guys with guys with lesser size, but you do it with hard work and toughness.”

Kobe Bryant scored 27 with nine assists and eight rebounds, but it wasn’t enough to keep the Lakers from falling to 1-7 on the road this season.

Bryant didn’t have an explanation for the Lakers’ road woes, but said he and Lakers coach Mike Brown would meet to try and figure it out.

“We will have to put our heads together,” Bryant said. “Me and Coach Brown will have to sit down and think of what is going on and how we can be a much better road team.”

Ersan Ilyasova and Dunleavy added 15 points each for the Bucks.

With Bogut out, the Lakers tried to take advantage of their pair of 7-footers, Pau Gasol and Andrew Bynum. It wasn’t as easy as it seemed going in.

“In the first half, we did a decent job,” Gasol said. “In the second half, there were not many touches. Defensively there was no excuse, (we’ve) got to do better. They were beating us all over the court.”

The NBA suspended Jackson one game for verbal abuse of a game official and failure to leave the court in a timely manner at the end of the Bucks’ 107-100 loss at Chicago on Friday night.

NHL: ALL-STAR WEEKEND

TENNIS: AUSTRALIAN OPEN

Alfredsson’s team has skills Azarenka sweeps • The Senator leads his past Sharapova squad to a win in the skills competition in Ottawa for first Grand Slam

The Associated Press OTTAWA — Patrick Kane’s Superman cape and Zdeno Chara’s blistering hot slap shot wasn’t enough to beat Daniel Alfredsson and his team stocked with hometown favorites in the NHL All-Star skills competition Saturday night.

Team Alfredsson beat Team Chara 21-12, easily clinching the victory in the final-round shootout challenge. Alfredsson had one of his team’s 10 shootout goals in outscoring Chara 10-3.

That was enough to get the hometown crowd on its feet, cheering on a Senators-stocked team that Alfredsson selected in the draft Thursday night.

Chara did break his own skills competition record for hardest shot with a blast at 108.8 mph. That bettered the mark of 105.9 he set in Raleigh last year.

The two teams will now face off today in the All-Star game.

Chara gave his team a shot — literally and physically — by helping his team to a 3-2 win in the fifth round of the competition, cutting Alfredsson’s lead to 11-9.

Kane, the Blackhawks forward and Team Chara member, provided the

entertainment value in the breakaway challenge. He wore Clark Kent glasses and had teammate Marian Hossa tie a Superman cape around his neck for Kane’s first attempt. Kane scored on his first shot, diving chest-first to the ice and using his left hand to glove the puck across to his stick to tap it in.

Entertaining as the competition was for the sold-out house, it was competing with troubling news regarding Sidney Crosby’s status shortly after the event began. The Penguins announced that Crosby had a neck injury, which had fully healed, in addition to a concussion after he visited a doctor in California.

NASCAR wants to reduce two-car drafting

By Steve Reed The Associated Press

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Since the system isn’t broken, NASCAR officials have no plans to change it — at least nothing radical.

The sport enjoyed one of its most exciting seasons ever last year, culminating with Tony Stewart winning his third Sprint Cup championship in the last race of the season. NASCAR Chairman and CEO Brian France said the sport is “in a very good place” as it moves toward another season beginning next month with the Daytona 500.

But France also believes it can be even better.

So while NASCAR will pretty much leave well enough alone, they will make a few minor tweaks, including taking some measures to address reducing two-car tandem racing at Daytona and Talladega.

“We have had a breathtaking number of close finishes at those tracks, but the fans want a mixture of styles including a return to a more traditional ‘pack racing’ and that close side-by-side competition that’s unique to Talladega and Daytona,” France said Thursday at NASCAR’s annual preseason press

Kickers Continued from D1 The last player to wave him on by was — who else? — Yepremian. That feat became the jumping-off point for the movie, “Ace Ventura: Pet Detective,” and was immortalized in a ditty dubbed “The Lonesome Kicker” by comedian Adam Sandler.

Kicking “can be so very scary,” Sandler sang, “especially, if the returner breaks on through. I’m the only guy on the playing field left to tackle him and I don’t want to get hurt, so I pretend to tie my shoe.”

All these years later, too many fans, and even some teammates, can’t shake that image from their mind. They still regard kickers as donothings and aliens, at worst, or necessary evils at best, which is strange considering the name of the game.

In the spotlight Their misses don’t explain it, not even the misses with the spotlight up full, the way Billy Cundiff did in last weekend’s AFC championship — wide left from 32 yards out — with the clock ticking down on the Baltimore Ravens’ season. Every player whiffs, or blinks, or blows an assignment on occasion, sometimes when it matters every bit as much.

Linemen lose their grip, quarterbacks slip, receivers drop passes, running backs and return men go down from glancing blows while an open field stares them in the face. But nobody keeps stats on those missed opportunities handy, or asks the perpetrators whether they intend to jump out of a window anytime soon.

Same with defenders. It’s easy to find out who led the team in tackles, sacks and interceptions, etc. But only their coaches know how many more they missed.

At this same time last year, Cundiff was celebrating his first selection to the Pro Bowl with a Hawaiian vacation. But he never kids himself about job security. He’s kicked for nine different teams in his 10 NFL seasons — four in Dallas where he started,

MOTOR SPORTS conference. “NASCAR and the teams are working hard on this and based on the test earlier this month, we’re encouraged that we’re making progress.”

France said the two-car tandem racing “evolved into something that no one saw coming, and now we’re going to deal with that.”

NASCAR’s vice president of competition Robin Pemberton said some changes will be made to the cars, including adding a slightly larger restrictor plate, a smaller spoiler and softer springs.

Those changes will be made beginning at Daytona next month.

“All of these combinations will help the qualifying be more exciting,” said Pemberton. “... The changes we made in the cooling system and the aero package we believe will aid in getting back to the more traditional style pack drafting that we’ve come to expect at Daytona and Talladega.”

While the 2012 season will be one of continuity rather than major change, NASCAR will introduce electronic fuel injection into the Sprint Cup Series.

“EFI excites the manufacturers and

three in Baltimore, and rarely more than a few months at any of the stops in between.

“You’re only a few plays away from being on the street, looking for another job,” said Stephen Gostkowski, who inherited Adam Vinatieri’s spot and will kick for the New England Patriots when they play the New York Giants in the Super Bowl next Sunday.

Small wonder, then, that few players on their teams ever bother to get close to the kicker. Some won’t stand next to them on the sideline or eat lunch at the same table. They’re surprised to see kickers in the weight room, wondering aloud why they even bother to work out. Usually, the only teammates who befriend them are accomplices — the punter, who often doubles as the holder, and the long-snapper — and perhaps only because their fates are so intertwined.

Otherwise, kickers would be even more alone.

“We just had our lockers moved in here to show you guys that we’re a part of the team,” punter Zoltan Mesko joked with reporters in the Patriots clubhouse earlier this week.

“But really, we’re all the way back there,” he added, gesturing toward a room off to the side. “This is just for this week so you guys wouldn’t make a big story out of it.”

Is it the shoes?

It isn’t the shoes, either. Some kickers have gone barefoot, one had no toes, and laugh at the dainty boots they wear if you want. Just know that Tom Brady and Eli Manning would both show up for the Super Bowl in fuzzy pink ballet slippers if those helped them complete passes at the same rate that Pittsburgh’s Shaun Suisham — the league’s lowest-rated kicker last season at 74.2 percent — converted his field-goal tries. The simple fact is that kickers do their job — put foot to ball — consistently better than anyone else on the team.

So it’s hardly coincidence, either, that every one of the top 25 scorers in NFL history is a kicker. Or that only

technology companies,” said France.

“To attract new companies (to the sport), we’ve had to take a little different view of that.”

France said NASCAR is “very encouraged” by increased television ratings across its three national series — the Sprint Cup, Nationwide and Camping World Truck series.

He also pointed to attendance gains at a number of venues.

“While we are still in a tough economic climate that is still difficult, we are pleased with some positive steps we saw last year,” he said.

NASCAR did make some changes off the track this week.

They announced Wednesday they’ll make all fines public in the future, a change from past years where they were kept secret.

The big changes for NASCAR will come in 2013.

That’s when the re-styled NASCAR Sprint Cup cars from Chevrolet, Dodge, Ford and Toyota will make the sport more relevant to manufacturers and technology companies. Ford earlier this week unveiled its 2013 Fusion prototype with the other original equipment manufacturers to follow in the near future.

one, Norwegian-born Jan Stenerud, has crossed the threshold since the Pro Football Hall of Fame first opened its doors first in 1963.

Why so little love?

“Maybe,” Pro Football Hall of Fame historian Joe Horrigan mused, “because it’s a sport we think and talk about mostly in terms of contact and turf, like big hits and big linemen wrestling in the trenches all game. Then out trots this 5-foot10, 190-pound guy who can render everything that came before totally meaningless.

“To some people,” he added, “that seems all out of whack.”

So there’s that, too.

The early days But don’t underestimate the role history played in getting today’s kickers off on the wrong foot.

No position benefited more from the second wave of specialization that swept over the game during the 1960s, nearly two decades after the first, when enough World War II veterans returned to bulk up rosters and ease the need for two-way players. And like every other specialty, kicking has advanced by leaps and bounds since, thanks to the combination of bigger athletes and better training, equipment and techniques, all of it backed by the kind of money, resources and attention to detail once reserved for America’s space program. But at its dawn, the modern kicking game seemed somehow unfair, not to mention unmanly and even un-American, feeding the undercurrents of resentment stirred by the fight between the established National Football League and the upstart American Football League for the soul of the game.

Seemingly out of nowhere, a few kickers popped up in the decidedly offensive-minded AFL and began sneaking up on the ball from the side, then using the whole of their instep to drive it. They were normal-sized guys with foreign-sounding names, like Gogolak and Stenerud, that hinted at backgrounds steeped in soccer.

MELBOURNE, Australia — For two games and two points, Victoria Azarenka looked the way one might imagine a firsttime Grand Slam singles finalist should look.

She was on edge. She was off target and under pressure from her more experienced opponent, Maria Sharapova.

“I was really nervous before the match because the expectation was coming, the adrenaline was kicking in,” said Azarenka, a 22-year-old from Belarus.

History was not too comforting, either. The last Belarussian woman to play in a major singles final was Natasha Zvereva at the 1988 French Open, and she did not win a game against Steffi Graf.

But neither the nerves nor the national precedents would keep Azarenka down for long.

Trailing 0-2, 0-30, on Saturday, she won the next four points and seldom stopped winning them from there, transforming what could have been a hotly contested Australian Open final into a one-woman demonstration of power, depth and — yes — poise. That might come as some surprise to those who have watched Azarenka cry in the middle of matches.

This time, she was in the moment and maybe even in the zone, and when her 6-3, 6-0 victory was complete af-

ter just 1 hour, 22 minutes, she dropped to her knees on the baseline, covered her face with her hands and looked as surprised as Sharapova looked chastened.

“It’s just this moment you cannot explain, the best feeling for sure,” Azarenka said in an Australian television interview. “I have no idea what I was doing out there.”

Perhaps not, but it was certainly working beautifully as she countered Sharapova’s increasingly desperate returns and ground strokes with big, on-target hitting. Sharapova, one of the game’s most fearsome baseliners, won only 22 of 67 points from the baseline as she kept failing to get the first-strike edge to which she is accustomed.

As a result, Azarenka, not Sharapova, will be the new No. 1 player on Monday. Azarenka will replace her friend and Monaco neighbor Caroline Wozniacki atop the WTA rankings.

Though Wozniacki, an upbeat and consistent Dane, finished 2010 and 2011 at No. 1, she never reached a Grand Slam final during those seasons. With this victory, Azarenka will restore some symmetry but not necessarily order. Five women have now won the past five major singles titles. Seven women have won the past eight, which is quite a contrast with the stability in the men’s game.

Worse, they trotted onto the field like soloists in spotless uniforms, leaving little doubt where they spent most of the 60 minutes while the hand-tohand combat raged. But there was no denying the results; those were eye-popping.

In the NFL, meanwhile, defense still dominated and field goals remained an afterthought. In 1965, the Giants attempted 25 field goals and made just four, including a stretch during which backup quarterback Bob Timberlake went zero for 15 and somehow hung on to the job. That’s because Timberlake, like the other players who handled the kicking chores, had full-time jobs, too. Some were running backs, like the Green Bay Packers’ Paul Hornung, or tackles, like the Cleveland Browns’ Lou Groza, who became specialists after their first career path was blocked by advancing age. They were already in the huddle when it came time to kick, and just as muddy as everyone else in the frame. They approached the ball directly from behind, and they used only the toe of their boot to propel it — the way their predecessors had since the demise of the drop-kick some three decades earlier.

Some of that hostility lingers even today, though no one expressed it better than former Detroit Lions tackle-turned-wiseguy Alex Karras did a few years after the leagues merged. He was already retired from football and working as a commentator for ABC by the time sidewinders transformed both the position and the game’s offensive strategies. So many more field goals were being attempted — and made — that purists argued for a while about little else than how best to cut that number down. Karras famously came up with this simple solution: “Tighten immigration laws.”

Specialists In the intervening years, the talent pool over here got wider and deeper.

The same kids who once watched the Gogolak brothers (Pete and Charlie) and Yepremian went on to play soc-

cer and attended football camps that specialized in kicking, with countless trips to the weight room squeezed in between. They got more repetitions, better coaching and much better pay.

You can still pick out the kickers in most team pictures with just a glance, but few have accents and the best ones draw salaries that rival many of their teammates. They’ve become so good from ever-lengthening distances in all kinds of conditions that league-wide, the average conversion rate last season was 83 percent.

“The expectation has changed in the league,” said Detroit kicker Jason Hanson. “If they put you out there, you’re supposed to make it. All of a sudden, a 48-yarder has become like from 32. As a kicker, I’m like, ‘wait a minute; this is way different.’ ” And therein lies the rub.

“They’ve gotten so good,” Horrigan said, “that with a few exceptions, most of the misses come when kickers are asked to do something that’s simply beyond their physical capabilities. Once upon a time, coaches didn’t give ridiculously long field-goal attempts a second thought. But now, more and more, they approach them like, ‘If ever you had a miracle in your leg, let it be this one.’ And guess who gets left holding the bag?”

It should come as little surprise that Horrigan, who grew up in Buffalo, N.Y., and worked as a sports writer there before winding up at the Hall, still holds a soft spot in his heart for much-maligned Bills kicker Scott Norwood. Norwood’s kick in the waning moments of the 1991 Super Bowl might be the most famous miss in the game’s history — wide right, from 47 yards out — and all these years later, he still gets blamed for setting the trend that would see the Bills lose the next three Super Bowls as well.

“Anyone who’d followed Scott’s career would have known that 47 was five yards or so beyond his range, and always had been,” Horrigan lamented. “What nobody ever asks is why, with everything the coaching staff knew at the time, the offense couldn’t get him five yards closer?”

Summit girls, Bend boys take Hoodoo nordic wins Bulletin staff report HOODOO — Central Oregon teams swept the Hoodoo classic nordic ski races Saturday afternoon, winning both boys and girls Oregon High School Nordic team and individual titles on a 5,300-meter course at Hoodoo Mountain Resort.

The Summit girls clipped Redmond by one point to win the team event with 18 points.

Similarly, the Bend boys also scored 18 points and won by one point over Sisters.

Central Oregon schools Redmond, Bend, Summit and Sisters all participated in the classic cross-country skiing event that included five other Oregon schools.

Amity Calvin of Sisters won the girls race in 20 minutes, 20 seconds. Summit’s Keelin Moehl followed a second later to pace the Storm with a time of 20:21, and teammate Anne Jarvis placed fourth in 21:11.

Bend High’s Melissa Hubler placed third and Dakota Steen led the Redmond girls, placing fifth overall in 22:14.

On the boys side, Peter Schwarz led the Lava Bears to a team victory, winning the individual boys race in a time of 18:22. Mason Calmettes led Sisters with a time of 18:54 and a third-place individual finish.

Also on Saturday: NORDIC SKIING Brother and sister lead Cougs WILLAMETTE PASS — Mountain View’s Imran Wolfenden won the boys 5,000-meter freestyle race and his sister Hayati claimed victory in the girls 5K as the Cougars took first in both the boys and girls team standings at the Oregon Interscholastic Ski Racing Association event.

Redmond tied the game 60-60 with a minute left in the fourth quarter after trailing 42-29 at the half.

“We made a great comeback and had phenomenal defense in the second half,” said Panthers coach Jon Corbett. But several missed shots and fouls left Redmond with a five-point loss in the end. Tanner Manselle led Redmond with 18 points, and teammate Trevor Genz added 16 points of his own. Connor Lau contributed eight points for the Panthers.

Redmond (9-10 overall, 2-3 SD1) will play at Portland’s Grant High on Tuesday in another Special District 1 contest.

Redmond Continued from D1 Sheldon’s scoring outburst was in part the result of her team’s suffocating fullcourt press.

“That’s what they do well,” Redmond coach Nathan Covill said about the Cardinals’ press. “They make a difference bumping ... trapping. They do these things so well, they take us out of what we’re trying to do.”

What the Panthers (7-12 overall, 14 SD1) wanted to do was feed the ball to senior post Jesslyn Albrecht, who scored the first four points of the game as Redmond took a 9-7 first-quarter lead. Albrecht finished the game with a team-high 18 points and five rebounds, capitalizing on Lincoln’s smaller post players.

The Cardinals (11-11, 3-2 SD1) initially struggled with interior defense, committing seven team fouls in the first 11 minutes of the game.

“Jess is unstoppable,” said Dollarhide, who finished the contest with nine points.

“When she gets the ball, it’s either a bucket or a foul (on the opposition).”

Albrecht had 10 points halfway through

WRESTLING Buffs win own invite MADRAS — Four wrestlers claimed individual titles for Madras as the White Buffaloes won their own five-team Madras Invitational. Samuel Flores (113 pounds), Miguel Vasquez (132), Ethan Short (152) and Travis Williams (220) all won their weight classes in leading the Buffs to 185 team points. La Pine finished second with 172 points and Gladstone placed third with 127.5 points. Burns came in fourth with 127 points and Sisters ended the day in fifth with 29 points. The Hawks had five

the second quarter when Redmond held a 17-10 lead. Lincoln tightened the screws defensively, though, and went on an 11-0 run to finish the half while wreaking havoc on the Panthers’ guards.

“Whenever we’d pass it in, they’d immediately trap the person with the ball,” Dollarhide explained.

As the players receiving the ball ran out of passing options, Redmond moved the ball backward to maintain possession, losing valuable time in the process.

Dollarhide helped revive the offense in the third quarter with seven of the Panthers’ 12 points, including a three-pointer with five seconds remaining in the third quarter. That shot gave Redmond what would be its last lead of the ball game, boosting the Panthers’ spirits.

“That was definitely a pump-up for us,” Dollarhide said, “(but) we didn’t come out as strong in the fourth quarter. We’re definitely a third-quarter team.”

As the Cardinals caught fire in the fourth quarter, Redmond again struggled to handle the defensive pressure.

The Panthers play at Special District 1 rival Grant in Portland on Tuesday.

EXTREME SPORTS

Dangerous airborne tricks continue at Winter X Games

By Brian Gomez The Gazette (Colorado Springs)

ASPEN, Colo. — Caleb Moore releases from the handlebars of a 450-pound snowmobile, 35 feet off the ground, with the possibility of being crushed if his high-flying stunt goes wrong.

“This is awesome!”

Moore yelled at the Winter X Games on Buttermilk Mountain, where tricks keep getting bigger, despite the recent death of one of the event’s household names.

The uncontrollable rate of progression hasn’t slowed since Canadian freestyle skier Sarah Burke was killed this month in a practice crash, and with a chance to shine in prime time on ESPN, nothing about Winter X is dialed back. In fact, the risk level has been raised.

Moore’s younger brother, Colten, overcame a nasty qualifying mishap to win Thursday’s snowmobile freestyle final with a pair of back flips, and when Canadian Mark McMorris won Friday’s snowboard big air, he became the first to execute a triple cork 1,440, a four-rotation jump off an 80-foot ramp. Triple flip 1,260s were common Saturday in skiing big air, and Justin Hoyer is planning a double back flip today in a snowmobile trick contest.

“I don’t think about the danger,” said Caleb Moore, who performed a never-before-seen tandem back flip with his brother last year at Winter X. “I just have fun and try to push it as hard as I can. When fellow athletes get hurt, it kind of brings the reality back to you a little bit. But I would much rather be taken out while doing something I love.”

A four-time Winter X winner, Burke, 29, died Jan. 19 from injuries in a Jan. 10 wipeout in Park City, Utah. She suffered bleeding on her brain after she ripped a vertebral artery in her neck, and a lack of oxygen and blood from a heart attack she had in the pipe caused irreversible damage to her brain. It was the same pipe in which now-retired snowboarder Kevin Pearce endured a traumatic brain injury in 2009, halting his Olympic aspirations.

The halfpipe historically has been safe, with helmets now mandatory for competition and air bags often employed on the sides during training. The walls in Aspen measure 22 feet, an increase of 25 percent over

“I don’t think about the danger. I just have fun and try to push it as hard as I can.

When fellow athletes get hurt, it kind of brings the reality back to you a little bit. But I would much rather be taken out while doing something I love.”

— X Games snowmobiler Caleb Moore

the past five years. However, two-time Olympic medalists Shaun White and Kelly Clark continue extending the limits — Clark winning Friday with a frontside 1,080 and White banking today on his trademark double McTwist 1,260.

White conceded that he might not have advanced to a 1,260 if he hadn’t “kept hitting my face doing a 1,080. I was like, ‘I should just keep going.’ ... Once you start on that path, you never really know what it’s going to be.” Clark insists a 22-foot halfpipe is “actually safer than an 18-foot halfpipe.

If you were to make an error in an 18-foot pipe, there’s not a lot of transition to land on, and you’re going to end up in the flats pretty quick.”

A drive to pull off the unthinkable hardly has subsided. Snowboarder Pat Moore last year tried to ride a Red Bull-sponsored halfpipe at Copper Mountain that soared to a record 35 feet, and after he hit the lip, he was hospitalized. And McMorris was serious when calling for the big air ramp to grow larger. “I didn’t think the jump was big enough,” he said.

Canadian snowboarder Sebastien Toutant never envisions a ceiling — not in a sport that’s “always going to progress,” he said. “They’re going to build bigger jumps. You’re going to do bigger tricks.” Skier Sammy Carlson said, “All of us are really comfortable doing what we do.” Plus, “you can get hit by a car. You can get hit on a bike,” Canadian skier Kaya said. “Sure, maybe (Winter X) is a little riskier.

But this is in our DNA.”

GOLF: EUROPEAN TOUR

Stanley builds five-shot lead

Woods moves into tie for first at Abu Dhabi

The Associated Press SAN DIEGO — Hang gliders were taking off from the cliffs behind the 13th tee at Torrey Pines where Kyle Stanley was waiting to tee off on the 524-yard hole. Then, the 24-year-old launched a shot that was just as majestic.

“Wait ’til to you see where this one went,” caddie Brett Waldman said.

On another clear day along the Pacific coast, it was hard not to notice.

In a familiar performance — even if the name might not be all that familiar now — Stanley overpowered the South Course on Saturday on his way to a 4-under 68 that gave him a five-shot lead going into the final round at the Farmers Insurance Open.

“For some reason, I’ve always been long,” said Stanley, who has a slight but athletic build and generates enormous speed. “But if you take a golf course like this where you’re hitting 7-irons into par 5s and short irons into long par 4s, it definitely helps.”

It never hurt Tiger Woods, a seven-time winner as a pro at Torrey Pines.

Stanley chose to lay up on the par-5 18th with the large pond in front, and spun a wedge near the hole to about 4 feet. About his only regret in the third round was missing that putt. One last birdie would have broken the 54-hole tournament record that Woods set in 1998, before Rees Jones beefed up the South Course to 7,698 yards for the 2008 U.S. Open.

Stanley grew up outside Seattle when Woods ruled the sport. All through school, he kept a poster of Woods over his bed.

“I think he’s definitely influenced me, and a lot of other people, too,” Stanley said.

He gladly settled for a spot alongside Woods in the record

Kyle Stanley hits his tee shot on the fifth hole during the third round of the Farmers Insurance Open in San Diego, Saturday.

Stanley holds a five-shot lead heading into today’s final round.

book at 18-under 198, and a five-shot lead over John Huh and John Rollins as he goes after his first PGA Tour title.

Huh, a 21-year-old rookie who spent three years on the Korean Tour, shot a 68 and joined Rollins at 13-under 203.

Stanley can’t recall ever having a lead this large, which can be troublesome if looked upon as only an opportunity to fail.

“I think the biggest thing is you can’t necessarily go out there and try to protect it,” Stanley said. “You’ve got to really just keep doing what got you to this point. I’m not going to be any more conservative tomorrow. I’ll stick to my game plan off the tee, and hopefully just continue to give myself a lot of chances.”

He hit driver on all but three holes, and four of them traveled at least 320 yards, a big

number considering Torrey Pines is just a cliff over sea level and even in pleasant weather, the ball doesn’t go quite as far as summer in Ohio.

Big numbers are nothing new for Stanley, however.

He recalls coming down to the Titleist Performance Institute when he was a 17-yearold in his senior year in high school. His ball speed was measured at 184 mph.

“Now, I can’t get it above 176,” he said.

It wasn’t just the big drives.

Stanley showed exquisite control of his irons, especially his distance, and he has been working overtime the last few years on dialing in his wedges from inside 120 yards.

Even so, he refused to look ahead to today and what a win might mean — a trip to the Masters, perhaps a spot in the World Golf Championships, a two-year exemption.

No one was giving him the trophy, either.

“If a guy had a 10- or 12-shot lead, you’d feel pretty comfortable,” Rollins said after his 68.

“But when you’re four or five shots, sometimes it’s hard to play with a big lead because you get kind of relaxed and everything else.”

Rollins should know. He had a three-shot lead with five holes to play in 2009, losing to Nick Watney.

Still, Stanley, the former All-American from Clemson, aspires to play boring golf and not look too far ahead.

His lone bogey came on the 12th, when he went just over the green, chipped to 6 feet and missed the putt. Then came the big blast on the 13th — “As good as I can possibly hit it,” he said — that left him a soft 7-iron to 15 feet on the fringe below the hole for an easy birdie.

“Are you playing this as a par 4?” Sang-Moon Bae turned and said to him with a smile.

By Michael Casey The Associated Press

ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates — Tiger Woods put himself in position to win his second straight tournament Saturday, and this one would leave little doubt about which direction his game is going.

He finally won two months ago against an 18-man field in California.

On Saturday, against the strongest field golf has seen in at least three months, Woods shot a 6-under 66 for a share of the lead with Robert Rock going into the final round of the Abu Dhabi Golf Championship.

The topic suddenly shifts from the state of his swing and his health. Woods has a 55-8 record worldwide when he has at least a share of the lead going into the final round, and a win would be the first time since August 2009 that he has won consecutive starts.

More than being atop the leaderboard, it’s how Woods got there.

“It’s fun when I’m able to control the golf ball like I did,” Woods said.

There wasn’t a lot of fistpumping from Woods, who traded drama for consistency, racking up six birdies in a bogey-free round. It was a memorable performance by the American, mostly for his ability to hit fairways, tame the par 5s and sink clutch putts — including a 6-footer for birdie on the final hole.

“It just seemed like I didn’t do a lot of things right but I didn’t do a lot of things wrong today, it was just very consistent,” Woods said. “You know, made a couple putts here and there. ... I stayed away from trouble

and tried to keep the ball towards the fat side of some of these pins, and I think I did a pretty good job.”

Woods finished at 11-under 205. Rock, at No. 117 in the world, birdied his final two holes to join Woods in the last group along with Peter Hanson, who had a 64 and was two shots behind.

Also two back at 9-under 207 were Rory McIlroy, who played with Woods for the third straight day and had a 68, keeping the No. 3 player very much in the picture.

Francesco Molinari (66) and Paul Lawrie (68) also were tied for third. George Coetzee (65), James Kingston (67), overnight leader Thorbjorn Olesen (71) and Jean-Baptiste Gonnet (69) were another shot back.

This was the first time in 20 months that Woods broke par in the opening three rounds of any tournament.

SKIING ROUNDUP

Vonn dominates downhill for victory in World Cup The Associated Press ST. MORITZ, Switzerland — Lindsey Vonn dominated yet another World Cup downhill on Saturday, and winning by 1.42 seconds on the Engiadina course.

On another sunny day at St. Moritz, the American found speed that eluded her rivals to clock 1 minute, 43.65 seconds on the relatively flat 1.57-mile track.

“I’m extremely happy with the win,” said Vonn, whose eighth World Cup victory this season extended her lead in the overall and downhill standings. “It’s been an amazing year so far.”

Maria Hoefl-Riesch of Germany, the defending overall champion, was runner-up.

Tina Weirather of Liechenstein was third, 1.47 behind Vonn.

Vonn’s closest challenger in the overall standings, Tina Maze of Slovenia, was fourth, 1.65 seconds back.

With 100 World Cup points for victory, Vonn leads Maze by 352 with half the season’s scheduled races completed.

Barring injury, Vonn seems unstoppable in her quest to reclaim the title she lost last year after winning the giant crystal globe trophy for three straight

years.

“Last year I had eight wins for the entire season. I already have eight this year and it’s only the end of January,” she said. “I’m never tired of winning and I’m never tired of skiing.”

Vonn, who won the supercombined event here Friday, got her 49th career World Cup victory and 24th in downhill.

It was her third success in alpine skiing’s glamor event this season.

Her margin Saturday was

stunning for any racer, yet it was her narrowest downhill victory this season. In her two wins at Lake Louise, Alberta, last month, the runners-up were France’s Marie Marchand-Arvier and Weirather by 1.68 and 1.95, respectively.

Also on Saturday: Cuche wins men’s downhill GA R M ISCH-PA RT ENKIRCHEN, Germany — Didier Cuche won his second consecutive World Cup downhill race on a shortened Kandahar course.

The 37-year-old Swiss veteran was coming off his record fifth win in Kitzbuehel, Austria, which was also run on a shortened course.

Cuche’s third downhill victory of the season took him to the top of the event standings.

Erik Guay of Canada finished second on the slope on which he won the world championship title last year. Hannes Reichelt of Austria was third.

Bode Miller of the United States was penalized for showing up late for Friday’s draw and had to start 46th rather than 16th. Miller did well early on the course and was close to Cuche but lost speed at the bottom and finished outside the top 30 who win points.

JOHN COSTA

A truly worrying divide

the reign of

big-time sports

T

he week ended with a magnificent parade.

Four hundred-plus newly minted Marines in review at their graduation ceremony in San Diego.

They were an impressive group.

All but a couple had completed high school, and several had college degrees.

They had survived 12 weeks of basic training, a course among the most grueling of all armed forces.

Ninety-six percent of them who started went on to graduate.

And, similarly, 90-plus percent of them will deploy to a war zone.

Standing in the bleachers, it was hard not to think back to my own experience in the military in the 1960s, albeit in the Army at Fort Dix, New Jersey, and Fort Benning, Georgia.

The contrasts between then and now are many, and for the most part, very positive.

The week was part of a program conducted regularly by the Marines for high school educators. Bulletin Publisher Gordon Black and I were lucky enough to be among the handful of media members among the 45 from Oregon and 45 from Washington state invited to the program.

The Marines’ intent is to give the attendees, particularly high school teachers and counselors, a taste of Marine training and life in San Diego, at the Marine air base at Miramar and at Camp Pendleton, where the Marines conduct field exercises and train with weapons.

The hope is that a counselor or teacher, when talking to a high schooler who is uncertain about the future, mentions the Marines as a viable option, which seems to have been the consensus conclusion among the teachers.

And why not?

The benefits to a young man or woman in discipline and brotherhood, medical and health care, and educational options are phenomenal.

It would be wise for such a young man or woman to keep in mind that the Marines are a warrior culture and that the first syllable in warrior is war. As they describe it themselves, the Marines are a “shallow” service, unlike the much larger Army, Navy and Air Force. There are only about 200,000 Marines, with a very limited and highly competitive officer hierarchy.

This small force lives on rifle-carrying privates and corporals, and to keep their force numbers, they train about 35,000 of these a year.

What this adds up to is that not long after entering, a young Marine is likely to be firing a weapon in anger.

And not just once. Because of the small size of the force, the potential for numerous combat zone deployments is high. Even assuming survival, many Marines said, the impacts on families can be profound.

But thankfully, the young volunteers keep coming, and in numbers that are making entry into the Marines very competitive.

All in all, I believe you would be very proud of these young Marines willing to risk life and limb to protect the country. I know I am.

But one aspect of the week worried me greatly. One colonel asked veterans among the 90 or so visitors to show their hands.

Three hands went up.

If that question had been asked of a similar group in the mid 1960s, I’m willing to bet that far more than half the hands would have gone up — a product of the draft and near universal service in World War II, Korea and Vietnam.

We turned to a volunteer service — and get great benefit from it today — as the draft became unpopular during the Vietnam War. But the draft had a plus, too.

It was a great equalizer, bringing large numbers of citizens into the most compelling kinds of national service and creating, for better or worse a close association of civilian and soldier.

That does not appear to be true today, and the disassociation can be very damaging to the military and the society it serves. It’s worrisome.

Alabama and LSU play in the BCS National Championship football game Jan. 9 in New Orleans. A national debate has kicked into gear regarding college sports and their overwhelming presence at universities.

Child abuse charges against a former Penn State assistant football coach brought down the program’s legendary head coach and the university’s president. Not long after, allegations of abuse came to light against an assistant basketball coach at Syracuse University. Combine that with the scandals over boosters showering players with cash and perks at Ohio State and, allegedly, the University of Miami and a glaring power gap becomes apparent between the programs and the institutions that house them.

“There is certainly a national conversation going on now that I can’t ever recall taking place,” said William Kirwan, chancellor of the University of Maryland system and co-director of the Knight Commission on Intercollegiate Athletics. “We’ve reached a point where big-time intercollegiate athletics is undermining the integrity of our institutions, diverting presidents and institutions from their main purpose.”

The right time for tort reform

O

regon’s Republican members of the state Legislature have a nearly unique opportunity next month to accomplish something they’ve fought for for

years. Pair a closely divided Senate and evenly split House with the governor’s push for changes in the state’s health care system, and the time for tort reform could be at hand.

What’s being proposed by Sen. Ted Ferrioli, R-John Day, and others is a cap on the non-economic damages juries can award in cases of medical malpractice. The costs associated with that malpractice still could be awarded in full, but juries would be barred from the sorts of huge non-economic — pain and suffering — settlements that drive doctors’ malpractice insurance premiums through the roof.

The governor, a physician himself, opposes the change. It’s too complicated, he says, to be tackled in the brief 30 days of the upcoming legislative session. That’s a difficult reason to swallow, coming as it does from the man who hopes to turn the state’s education system on its head in that same period of time.

Ferrioli says that despite their status as the minority party in the Senate, Republicans may have their best shot in decades of actu-

ally getting something done. He doesn’t believe Democrats who hope to make dramatic changes to the Oregon Health Plan will want to do so on a straight party line vote, meaning some may well give in on the tort reform question.

It’s difficult to believe that capping what juries may award for pain and suffering is a more complex matter than, say, overhauling either education or health care delivery in this state. In fact, we don’t believe it.

What we do know is this: Oregon lawmakers have discussed tort reform at least since the 1980s, if not longer. They have yet to make any headway on the matter, though now, with the combination of legislation critical to the governor and a narrow Democratic margin in the Senate, Republicans may be faced with the best opportunity for real change they’ve had in decades. They must at least try.

Bill undermines open records law O regon Senate Bill 1526 has been introduced to clarify the state’s public meetings law, but oh what a mess it makes.

It would allow members of public boards to hide their emails from the public.

State Sen. Floyd Prozanski, D-Eugene, and chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, told the Register-Guard of Eugene the bill was still being molded. It needs to be melted down and redrafted.

There is an issue the Legislature should clarify. Under Oregon law, public bodies are supposed to make decisions and deliberate out in the open. They aren’t supposed to be sneaking around. That much is clear.

What happens when there is not a quorum?

Some lawyers would say the law is ambiguous. Others would say as long as there is not a quorum, elected officials can talk, deliberate and plot in private. You can, of course, argue whether that violates the spirit of the law.

Coos County Circuit Judge Michael Gillespie ruled in 2010 on a case from Lane County that addressed the issue. He found that some Lane County Commission-

ers violated the law when considering approving money to hire aides for the commissioners.

The commissioners never met in the same room. They communicated through a series of emails. “All involved knew that a quorum of the board was working toward a final decision outside of the public meeting context,� Gillespie wrote in his decision.

The judge’s decision holds only for Lane County. But those commissioners didn’t like it. Other public bodies were concerned what it could mean for them.

Senate Bill 1526 was the fix.

It doesn’t just clarify that elected officials can have discussions outside a quorum. It says “deliberations do not include� communications that are not “real-time communications.� That exempts email sent to and from members of a public board.

As it’s drafted, Senate Bill 1526 creates a new Mount Bachelor-sized exemption to the idea of public meetings and open records. Unless the bill is reworked, this Legislature is beginning to tear apart the idea that the public should know what its government is doing.

My Nickel’s Worth Private equity profiteering Steve Jobs epitomized the kind of capitalism that made America great: creative genius, passionate attention to innovation, cutting-edge products that please millions of consumers.

Mitt Romney epitomizes the nosweat, no-risk rigged game of the private equity player: “Strip and flip� profiteering on companies that others have built, with deal-terms that are fixed to reward private equity investors even when companies they invest in fail. The game at Bain resembles nothing so much as wellheeled hunters at a private reserve, where “beaters� guide the prey into convenient spots to be shot by the “hunters,� yielding fine trophies without the messy trudging through the muck and cold.

Private equity executives assert that this activity is a necessary component of “creative destruction,� delivering efficiency to the markets.

It is nothing of the sort. Creative destruction is Craigslist overturning the newspaper classified advertising business; it is Dell Computer changing the landscape in the personal computer business; it is Amazon, Google and tiny upstarts in Silicon Valley or Seattle that will one day break the oligopoly of Big Oil or big pharmaceuticals with discoveries springing from the sweat and toil of true entrepreneurs.

As a further insult to we commoners, private equity managers enjoy preferential tax rates (only 15 per-

cent) on their income, in what must surely be the greatest corporate welfare tax scam in history.

Romney dismisses critics of Bain as whining socialists promoting the politics of envy. No, Mr. Romney, not envy. What you are hearing is the sound of derision and contempt.

They’ve paid their debt I could not agree more with Tina Towler’s “In My View� on Jan. 8.

She has hit the nail on the head, but did not go far enough.

Prisons, whether juvenile or adult, need more positive educational opportunities for offenders, so that once they have paid their debt to society they are prepared to take their place in society alongside other employed persons.

In order to do this, (unless someone has been convicted of murder, most sexual offenses or some other really egregious offense) they need to have some way to get their life back on track.

This involves getting a job so that they have some means of supporting themselves and/or families.

The state of Oregon needs to pass a law that says once offenders have paid their debt to society and remained clean, sober and free from other offenses for a period of time, say five years, background checks cannot reveal and employers can no longer use their conviction as an ex-

cuse for not hiring them, as long as they otherwise qualify for the job.

This should apply whether exoffenders paid their debt in Oregon or any other state. “Paid their debt� is the operative phrase. Once they have “paid their debt� to society they should not continue to be penalized for the rest of their lives by being unable to obtain decent family wage jobs. This just makes it more likely that many of them will end up re-entering the system.

A motive for testing?

After reading the article, “Blood tests for Down syndromeâ€? from The Bulletin, I have to ask myself, “What was the motivation for this ‘advance’ in early DNA testing of fetuses?â€? Has it been made available so that parents can begin sooner celebrating their beautiful babies with Down syndrome? Sadly, I think not. I believe that these scientists and doctors may need to meet our son, Cameron ‌ and really get to know him. After all, he is the light of our lives ‌ our greatest teacher and inspiration on how to live a beautiful life. How tragic it would be if this new DNA testing led to parents terminating their pregnancies.

Our world is in desperate need of the love and gentleness people with Down syndrome embody.

Corporate citizens in the U.S. can do well by doing good

By Richard H. Thaler Bloomberg News

A

lthough the phrase is now somewhat out of fashion, the issue of corporate responsibility is at the heart of many of the debates on economic policies around the world. Should corporations simply maximize profits and let the invisible hand do its wonders, or do they have some obligation to be good corporate citizens as well?

As with many politicized debates, this one has been captured by two extreme positions, neither of which are, to my mind, particularly sensible.

At one extreme are “pro-responsibility� advocates. This camp is often pro-free-lunch, too. They think that companies have a responsibility to pay their workers higher wages, offer better benefits, yet still keep prices down.

Good luck with that.

At the other extreme, is the “proprofit� gang. These folks think that a company’s only responsibilities are

to their shareholders. The pro-profit group worships at the shrine of Milton Friedman, the both deified and vilified former professor at the University of Chicago. Friedman called the concept of corporate responsibility a “fundamentally subversive doctrine.� “In a free society,� he said, “there is one and only one social responsibility of business — to use its resources and engage in activities designed to increase its profits so long as it stays within the rules of the game, which is to say, engages in open and free competition without deception or fraud.�

Unfortunately, the important qualifiers at the end of that statement are often forgotten. Friedman urges companies to “stay within the rules of the game� and avoid “deception or fraud.�

Consider this example: A young bank employee, Chris, comes up with a clever way to increase profit. It is a refinement of an existing policy that when a customer makes a purchase that exceeds the account balance on

his or her debit card, the bank allows that purchase to go through, “as a courtesy,� but charges the customer a $35 penalty for making that purchase, and the same amount again for additional purchases until the account is back in the black.

Chris’s idea is that when a bunch of charges come in on the same day, say when a customer is shopping at the mall, and these charges will together put the customer over the limit, the bank will process the biggest purchase first, thus immediately putting the customer over the limit, and enabling it to charge a $35 fee for that sandwich at the fast-food joint and another for the latte at the cafe, and so forth. This policy won’t be disclosed to customers.

Here is my question: If Chris’ idea is legal and profitable, is that a sufficient reason for the bank to adopt it?

More generally, is any way of making money acceptable as long as it is both profitable and legal?

There is an interesting irony here.

Those who would favor this narrow definition of corporate responsibility are typically very skeptical of governments. Yet, in their worldview, it is the government that decides the limits of what a company should do.

So where do I come down on corporate responsibility? Life is a matter of trade-offs. Yes, corporate officers have a duty to their shareholders, but they may also want to sleep well at night.

Strategies that enrich shareholders at the expense of customers, employees, neighbors or the environment require scrutiny. The bottom line isn’t the only line to consider.

So here is some advice for companies. First, before taking some action, consider whether you would be willing to publicly announce the policy to your customers. If not, don’t do it.

Next, instead of encouraging employees to find new ways to make fees harder to find and more difficult to understand, concentrate on finding ways to deliver a high quality product

at a competitive price and compete by developing a reputation for fair dealing.

Yes, at least in the short run you may lose some customers to competitors whose prices seem cheaper, but in the long run you may be able to make a profit with loyal customers who are confident that their pockets aren’t being picked whenever they let down their guard. If most companies in an industry fail to take this advice, they shouldn’t be surprised if they later receive greater regulatory scrutiny. The Dodd-Frank law came about in part as a response to practices such as the one I described earlier.

As a matter of logic, if the only standard you are willing to live by is the letter of the law, then you should expect that the letter of the law will become increasingly specific. — Richard H.

Is fidelity really that important?

T

he news media seem obsessed with the serial affairs of a younger Newt Gingrich back in the last century. The anger of his second of three wives mysteriously became national news on ABC’s “Nightline” on the eve of the South Carolina primary. Millions watched Mrs. Gingrich II complain that Newt and the present Mrs. Gingrich III had done to her (while ill) just about the same thing that she and Newt had earlier done to Mrs. Gingrich I (while ill).

Do these marital dramas involving our leaders matter that much?

At some point, does long-ago adultery earn a statute of limitations?

Do we forgive a few, but not serial, transgressions? Do we really care to learn the back-and-forth, he said/ she said details? And do leaders have to be exceptionally talented to atone for extremely poor marital behavior?

There have been plenty of unfaithful presidents, a few who could not even suppress their libidos upon entering the White House. Long before Bill Clinton’s dalliances, John Kennedy, Franklin Roosevelt and Warren Harding allegedly had been unfaithful to their first ladies.

Given the value of stable marriages to society, it would be nice to think that such moral failure in our presidential candidates would

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON be a telltale warning of later flawed governance — and that anyone who cheated on a spouse would also somehow cheat the country. But the truth unfortunately is more complex. The extracurricular Clinton proved a better president than the faithful Jimmy Carter. The reckless Kennedy served more honestly than did the seemingly devoted Richard Nixon. And the two-timing FDR was considered more successful than the monogamous Herbert Hoover.

Yet there are so many factors involved in both successful marriage and skilled leadership that it is impossible to isolate one trait — even one as critical as fidelity — as an absolute barometer of future success.

Some of our most inspired civilian and military heroes — Charles Lindbergh, Dwight D. Eisenhower, George S. Patton, Martin Luther King Jr. — were rumored to have had relationships outside of marriage. New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani was courting his third wife while still married to his second wife when 9/11 occurred, and yet he proved steady and reliable in a way mayors more monogamous have not

during lesser disasters.

Why, then, are the marriages and indiscretions of an ascendant Gingrich now such an issue, apparently bothering the media more than primary voters?

The media usually prefer liberal politicians. Washington’s newspaper editors kept quiet about JFK’s frolicking, a silence that became near-conspiratorial. The renegade tabloid National Enquirer alone had to pursue the sordid affair of presidential candidate John Edwards.

Matt Drudge forced the mainstream media to follow up on the recurrent but ignored rumors of Bill Clinton’s dalliance with Monica Lewinsky in the Oval Office. For most in the media, why sidetrack a fellow progressive’s enlightened agenda for America over an occasional hormonal urge?

But conservatives should expect such extra scrutiny. Just as populist Democrats raise eyebrows when they cozy up to Wall Street onepercenters, so too does the party of traditional family values set a higher bar for marital fidelity — and so faces the greater wage of hypocrisy. We don’t expect Bill Clinton to preach about the sanctity and stability of marriage, but we often heard that sermon from a sanctimonious Gingrich.

We are now an electronically

wired 24/7 nation of the Internet, cable news, Twitter and Facebook, and sex is in our faces everywhere.

In 1961, the old-boy newspaper guild alone could keep quiet JFK’s alleged rampant womanizing. Now, such a circle of silence eventually breaks down, and the lurid details seem all the more newsworthy. In a counterintuitive sense, the more dissolute Americans become, the more they hope that at least their presidents might resist the temptations of the modern world that they themselves cannot.

We all would like to think Gingrich’s long-ago adulteries must warn us that he would make a less reliable, more erratic president than the apparently faithful Mitt Romney, Rick Santorum, Ron Paul or Barack Obama.

But there seems little evidence from history that such a logical conclusion is always true — and none adduced so far by our biased media why it should be.

Maybe that’s why the voters of conservative South Carolina apparently did not think whom or how many times the mercurial Newt Gingrich has married mattered more than how he has so far debated and addressed the issues.

What makes good teachers effective?

By William McKenzie The Dallas Morning News

I

f you have a child in a public school, you may want to look at a study that has set the education world abuzz this month. More than look at it, you may want to ask your child’s principal or superintendent what they plan on doing with the information.

Harvard and Columbia researchers discovered that quality teachers impact their students not only immediately, but over a lifetime. Those with good teachers end up earning higher incomes, getting college degrees and avoiding teen pregnancy.

(To read the report, go to http://obs. rc.fas.harvard.edu/chetty/value _ added.html.)

Intuitively, the data makes sense.

Most of us can point to a super teacher who impacted our lives. I still remember the expectations that Thelma Nelson and Rutha Cooper created in their classrooms.

But what is effective teaching?

That’s the question.

Fortunately, numerous people and institutions are searching for the answer — or answers. The White House is pushing effective teaching.

The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation has a project devoted to quality instruction. And the George W. Bush Institute is spearheading a national effort to develop education leaders.

David Chard, dean of Southern Methodist University’s Simmons School of Education and Human Development, is part of that conversation. He wrote recently, “Highquality teachers must have two things: knowledge of content and effective instructional strategies.”

I called him last week to learn more about these essentials, and to see how schools, districts and states can develop them in more teachers.

Chard started by explaining that states highly regulate teacher preparation to ensure that classrooms have enough instructors. By setting minimum standards, states can be certain that they will have enough teachers.

At one level, that’s understandable. In a state like Texas, with nearly 5 million students, you need plenty of teachers.

But there’s also an awful risk in that strategy. It’s possible — even likely — that instructors end up leading discussions in subjects they don’t grasp. For example, they might have taken a college course in math but not really understand why we divide fractions in a particular way. Or they may have had classes in calculus and how to teach math, but they haven’t studied elementary school math.

Such deficiencies are why SMU’s

education school has created a course for prospective instructors with the university’s math department. That’s a move forward for future teachers and education schools.

The latter rightly have been criticized for not ensuring that their graduates know the subjects they want to teach. (For teachers already in the classroom, part of their professional development should involve subject content.)

But what about effective teaching strategies?

Chard says this is a tricky dance because a teacher must figure out the needs of 25 students or more.

And teachers may not know enough about how young minds develop.

They might have taken a course in educational psychology, but not in cognitive and developmental psychology. So some teachers start the complex planning for their classes

without knowing enough about how the minds of their students work.

Here, too, schools of education can impact classrooms by requiring substantial courses on the development of the brain. The state may not require the courses for a teaching certificate, but the schools can help students by requiring them.

In fairness to teachers, their craft has become considerably more demanding, even scientific. Expectations have changed for students and teachers alike, largely for economic reasons. Once, students could drop out and know they could get a decent factory job. No more. Factories either have disappeared or demand more sophisticated labor.

As a result, there is more pressure upon teachers. More than ever, students depend upon their knowing what to teach and how to reach developing minds. The instructors in front of them will greatly influence how much they earn, whether they attend college or if they end up teenage parents.

Talk about important. Americans are spending months upon months selecting the next president. Right behind that, we should be thinking more about who leads our classrooms.

Patients need to know price of health care

By Peter Orszag Bloomberg News

O

ver the past few years, the growth in health care costs has quietly been slowing down.

Naturally, we’d like to make this trend last. That means we’ll need to avoid betting big on just one strategy.

Last week, the Congressional Budget Office reported that many Medicare pilot projects that were designed to reduce costs actually haven’t done so. But the CBO suggested there may be promise in a “bundled-payment” approach, under which insurers pay a single comprehensive fee for treating a particular disease, rather than many fees for specific doctor visits and therapies. The health care law includes provisions to expand bundled payments, and they should be aggressively adopted.

This is exactly how health care reform should work: We try various approaches to generate better value from health care, many of which don’t pan out, and pursue the ones that seem to be working.

Another initiative, one that’s typically promoted by conservatives, is increased price transparency. For consumers to be able to play their role in keeping costs down, they need to know what those costs are.

The prices of many health care services in the United States are extremely difficult for patients to obtain in advance. For example, when the Government Accountability Office anonymously phoned doctors’ offices

to inquire about the price of diabetes screening, most could not provide estimates of the associated lab fees. And when GAO investigators called hospitals to find out the price of a knee replacement, they got similarly uninformative responses. One of the more responsive hospitals said it would take a week to obtain an estimate; most of the rest seemed even less helpful.

When prices are revealed, typically after the fact, they often vary widely — depending on both the provider and the patient’s insurance plan. In 2009, for instance, the median charge for coronary-artery bypass surgery in Los Angeles County ranged from about $130,000 at Long Beach Memorial Medical Center to about $250,000 at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and more than $300,000 at Garfield Medical Center, according to a California government website.

It’s worth noting that most studies have found little, if any, connection between price and quality.

Several efforts are therefore under way to provide more transparency about health-care prices, with the goal of helping people become smarter shoppers. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services now collect and publish information on prices for prescription drugs (through the Medicare Plan Finder) and for common health services in various areas (through the Health Care Consumer Initiatives). And more than half of states now have publicly accessible websites offering

health-care price information.

These efforts have not been overwhelmingly successful. California’s initiative over the past nine years to require hospitals to make certain price data available, for example, has done little to drive patients toward lower-price competitors or to narrow the price distribution, according to an analysis by the Congressional Research Service. A similar effort to increase price transparency in New Hampshire also had little effect.

Simply posting prices online doesn’t seem to do all that much.

In the future, though, health-insurance plans are likely to shift toward a defined-contribution model — in which the employee is given a set contribution toward buying an insurance policy — and, in that setting, price transparency could become more effective. After all, when people bear more of the financial risk associated with their own health care, they are likely to become more responsive to information about price and quality.

(A consumer-driven approach, as I have written elsewhere, is unlikely to play the dominant role in reducing health expenses, since so much of the total cost of health care is driven by very expensive cases in which cost sharing is and should be minimal. But consumers nonetheless have a role to play.)

In addition, private health-consulting companies have begun promoting transparency in ways that may work better than the state government ef-

forts. Castlight Health Inc., for example, helps employers analyze their payments to providers — and then uses that data to offer personalized information to employees about out-ofpocket prices of health-care services and procedures. This company also provides information about the quality of service from individual doctors.

The information is available only to the employee, not to the public.

Castlight’s private, individual approach might help to soften one of the concerns generally associated with price transparency — that it can lead to provider collusion.

A 2008 Congressional Budget Office report, published while I was director of that agency, noted the same concern for health care price transparency. The best way to mitigate this concern is aggressive antitrust oversight. But it would also help to make prices more transparent to consumers, but not providers.

Regardless of who wins the presidential election, the coming years will see dramatic fights over health care. Yet Medicare spending already seems to be slowing, in a manner that I increasingly doubt is due merely to economic weakness. Let’s not squander this progress. Providing more price transparency, through approaches like Castlight’s, should be part of the path forward.

Average is over I

n an essay, titled “Making It in America,” in the latest issue of The Atlantic, author Adam Davidson relates a joke from cotton country about just how much a modern textile mill has been automated: The average mill has only two employees today: “a man and a dog. The man is there to feed the dog, and the dog is there to keep the man away from the machines.”

Davidson’s article is one of a number of pieces that have recently appeared making the point that the reason we have such stubbornly high unemployment and sagging middleclass incomes today is largely because of the big drop in demand because of the Great Recession, but it is also because of the quantum advances in both globalization and the information technology revolution, which are more rapidly than ever replacing labor with machines or foreign workers.

In the past, workers with average skills, doing an average job, could earn an average lifestyle. But, today, average is officially over. Being average just won’t earn you what it used to. It can’t when so many more employers have so much more access to so much more above-average cheap foreign labor, cheap robotics, cheap software, cheap automation and cheap genius.

Yes, new technology has been eating jobs forever, and always will. As they say, if horses could have voted, there never would have been cars.

But there’s been an acceleration.

As Davidson notes, “In the 10 years ending in 2009, (U.S.) factories shed workers so fast that they erased almost all the gains of the previous 70 years; roughly one out of every three manufacturing jobs — about 6 million in total — disappeared.”

And you ain’t seen nothin’ yet. Last April, Annie Lowrey of Slate wrote about a startup called “E la Carte” that is out to shrink the need for waiters and waitresses: The company “has produced a kind of souped-up iPad that lets you order and pay right at your table. The brainchild of a bunch of MIT engineers, the nifty invention, known as the Presto, might be found at a restaurant near you soon. …

“You select what you want to eat and add items to a cart. Depending on the restaurant’s preferences, the console could show you nutritional information, ingredients lists and photographs. You can make special requests, like ‘dressing on the side’ or ‘quintuple bacon.’ …

“Each console goes for $100 per month. If a restaurant serves meals eight hours a day, seven days a week, it works out to 42 cents per hour per table — making the Presto cheaper than even the very cheapest waiter.”

What the iPad won’t do in an above average way a Chinese worker will.

Consider this paragraph from Sunday’s terrific article in The New York Times by Charles Duhigg and Keith Bradsher about why Apple does so much of its manufacturing in China: “Apple had redesigned the iPhone’s screen at the last minute, forcing an assembly-line overhaul. New screens began arriving at the (Chinese) plant near midnight. A foreman immediately roused 8,000 workers inside the company’s dormitories, according to the executive. Each employee was given a biscuit and a cup of tea, guided to a workstation and within half an hour started a 12-hour shift fitting glass screens into beveled frames. Within 96 hours, the plant was producing over 10,000 iPhones a day. ‘The speed and flexibility is breathtaking,’ the executive said. ‘There’s no American plant that can match that.’”

There will always be change — new jobs, new products, new services. But the one thing we know for sure is that with each advance in globalization and the IT revolution, the best jobs will require workers to have more and better education to make themselves above average. Here are the latest unemployment rates from the Bureau of Labor Statistics for Americans over 25 years old: those with less than a high school degree, 13.8 percent; those with a high school degree and no college, 8.7 percent, those with some college or associate degree, 7.7 percent; and those with bachelor’s degree or higher, 4.1 percent.

In a world where average is officially over, there are many things we need to do to buttress employment, but nothing would be more important than passing some kind of GI Bill for the 21st century that ensures that every American has access to post-high school education.

“Flight of a Lifetime,” pilot William “Bill” Randolph’s book, details his 2005 jaunt around the world in the single-engine plane he built.

Calif. pilot’s new book tells of trip around the world • Self-published book available on Amazon

By Donna Jones Santa Cruz (Calif.) Sentinel

APTOS, Calif. — “Want to have a barrel of fun? Meet new, interesting people? Have a magnificent adventure and live on the edge?

Then get yourself a small airplane and fly it around the world.”

So begins “Flight of a Lifetime,” Aptos pilot William “Bill” Randolph’s book about his 2005 jaunt in the single-engine plane he built in a hangar at Watsonville Municipal Airport.

“People kept asking me if I was going to write a book, and so just for the fun of it, I did,” said the 83-year-old Randolph over coffee on Friday. “I thought I’d send copies off to the relatives and that would be the end of it.”

But the self-published book’s for sale on Amazon.com, and

Randolph is looking into getting it on the shelves.

For pilots thinking of doing a little globe-trotting of their own or anyone pursuing a dream, Randolph’s tale is either inspirational or cautionary or maybe a little bit of both.

Randolph was 76 when he took off from Watsonville on March, 9, 2005, for the first leg of a more than 27,000mile journey. Two years before, he had beat throat cancer, and decided after 60 years in aviation, he should follow a lifelong dream.

The trip took him to South America, Africa, Asia and finally to Hawaii and home.

Along the way, he risked his life in a dangerous thunderstorm over the Amazon, made repairs on the run, tangled with customs officials and was confronted by gun-toting soldiers. He also made friends he

keeps in touch with to this day.

He said his trip would have been easier if he had hired a flight services company to plan the route and grease the path through government bureaucracies. But he said he saved tens of thousands of dollars on the do-it-yourself tour, which cost about $25,000. And he wouldn’t change a thing — except, perhaps, passing on the purchase of an expensive storm scope that would have enabled him to better navigate through bad weather.

The only thing he regrets, Randolph said, is that he didn’t do it earlier so that he would have had time to complete more adventures.

He’d like to make one last flight through Alaska to Eastern Siberia. But he said he’s in the middle of trying to work out a misunderstanding about his medical history with the Federal Aviation Administration, which denied his pilot’s license renewal.

His advice to other dreamers: “Just do it!”

‘The Fear Index’: It’s the smartest computer here “The Fear Index”

by Robert Harris (Alfred A. Knopf, 286 pgs., $25.95)

By Michiko Kakutani New York Times News Service

The title of Robert Harris’ new thriller, “The Fear Index,” comes from the volatility index, or VIX — also known as the “fear index” — which measures expectations of violent swings in the market, as Wall Street watchers know from the harrowing meltdown of 2008.

This fleet-footed, if sometimes hokey, novel takes place in the rarefied world of hedge funds, featuring one that has achieved huge returns by short-selling and using trading algorithms that “thrive on panic.”

It’s an energetically researched tale based on one of the back stories to the crash of 2008: bankers’ hiring physicists to devise hugely complex trading programs that few really understand, and those new strategies running dangerously amok. It’s also a familiar story of hubris and its fallout.

In fact, “The Fear Index” — like such recent novels as Kevin Guilfoile’s “Cast of Shadows” (2005) and Laurence Gonzales’ “Lucy” (2010) — is a variation on that ever-popular template, Mary Shelley’s “Frankenstein.” Once again, we’re introduced to a scientist who dares to play God by creating a new form of life (in this case, a computer program

named VIXAL that evolves into a form of artificial intelligence). Once again, that new being leaves a spiral of havoc in its wake.

To underscore the Frankenstein parallels, Harris sets his novel in Geneva, where Shelley conceived the idea for the original, and uses as an epigraph to his opening chapter a quotation from that earlier novel: “Learn from me, if not by my precepts, at least by my example, how dangerous is the acquirement of knowledge, and how much happier that man is who believes his native town to be the world, than he who aspires to become greater than his nature will allow.”

Weaving copious research into a breathless narrative, much as he did in his historical best-sellers, “Fatherland” and “Pompeii,” Harris in the opening chapters does an agile job of limning the elite world inhabited by Dr. Alexander Hoffmann. He is a brilliant scientist who helped create computer systems used to analyze data generated by the giant particle accelerator known as the Large Hadron Collider near Geneva and who is now the brains behind a wildly successful hedge fund that uses secret algorithms, based on his earlier work on “emergent machine reasoning.”

Once given a task, Hoffmann’s program can, in theory, “operate independently and teach itself at a rate far beyond the capacity of human beings.” One incarnation correlates “recent market fluctuations with the frequency rate of fear-related words in the media — terror, alarm, panic, horror, dismay, dread, scare, anthrax, nuclear.”

Along the way Harris introduces us to the quantitative analysts, or “quants,” at Hoffmann Investment Technologies, who have helped their boss’ machine deliver the fund’s astonishing 83 percent returns: geeks who are a far cry from the macho masters of the universe depicted in so many Wall Street novels and movies. He also introduces us to the phenomenally rich investors, who have allowed the company’s slick frontman, Hugo Quarry, to talk them into handing over their millions to a computer program.

Expounding upon themes that will be familiar to his loyal readers, Harris explores both the promises and perils of technology, and, as in his first novel, “Fatherland” — which imagined what might have happened if Nazi Germany had won World War II — he expertly conjures a paranoid world where everyone seems to be watching everyone else.

This is how we meet them: “The final weekend of their marriage, hounded by insolvency, indecision and, stupidly, half-secretly, in the never-distant past ruled by memory, infidelity, Art and Marion Fowler fled the country.” This middle-age Midwestern couple doesn’t go far: just to Niagara Falls, where they spent their honeymoon.

There is a cache of cash involved and a desperate gambling plan that, if Art has his way, will make everything right.

The novel shares DNA with Albert Brooks’ 1985 film “Lost in America”: a married couple, poor decisions, brighteyed scheming and that unusual mix of humor and seriousness. Art and Marion spend Valentine’s Day weekend in Niagara Falls, visit a handful of tourist attractions, eat at restaurants they can’t afford, see Heart in concert, drink, gamble and have sex (finally, if you ask Art). On the surface, it’s routine, expected, and that’s what Art is counting on: His plan involves taking the last of their money and making a cash mountain out of a secret molehill.

Married for 30 years, Art and Marion were caught by the 2008 recession. Their old, charming house was prone to expensive repairs; like many, they’d taken money out of it to keep it up. And while they were at it, they overspent remodeling the kitchen. This wouldn’t have been so bad if Marion’s hours hadn’t been cut back, and if Art hadn’t lost his job in the fallout from the economy’s retraction. He was in insurance; he should have known the odds.

“Odds of a U.S. citizen filing for bankruptcy: 1 in 17.” This refrain — from the whimsical “Odds of seeing a shooting star: 1 in 5,800” to the depressing “Odds of a couple fighting on Valentine’s Day: 1 in 5” — works as a framework, heading every chapter.

Stuck there like news from an ironic census, these odds put the characters’ desires in perspective. Should they try?

Is it hopeless? When it comes right down to it, the odds of whether a marriage will make it to its 25th anniversary (1 in 6, according to O’Nan) aren’t all that interesting; it’s the de-

tails of the marriages that are.

This novel is an intimate portrait of a marriage: We get to know Art and Marion closely, as well as or better than they know each other.

We see things closely from each of their points of view.

Worn into grooves of routine, they jostle for bathroom space, accommodate and annoy each other — or, rather, Art accommodates and thereby annoys Marion.

Financially, things are very bad for them. They will almost certainly lose the house.

To duck out of debts, they’re going to file for divorce (this isn’t explained in detail, but it’s the plan). Art has cashed out the last of their savings, $40,000, and he’s going to bet it all on roulette. He has a surefire method. They’ll smuggle the winnings — far more than they’re allowed to carry across the border — back into the country and start again.

Art has splurged on a new ring — not just because jewelry is an asset they can’t seize, but because he wants to reconfirm his commitment to Marion. Yet she has drifted further from him than he realizes; increasingly, she looks forward to their divorce as not a sham break but a real one. She just hasn’t quite figured out how to explain that to him.

All of this could make for rather grim melodrama, but not in O’Nan’s hands.

There is a clarity to O’Nan’s prose: It doesn’t call attention to itself, doesn’t flaunt dazzling sentences or stunning descriptions. This may undersell his work, which is delightful. There is something movie-like in it — not that this should be a movie, as his novel “Snow Angels” was — but it’s movie-like in its easy immersion. Cracking open “The Odds” is like settling back to watch a film as the theater lights come down: It plays out, brightly, before your eyes.

‘Copper Beach’ is start of new series for Krentz “Copper Beach”

by Jayne Ann Krentz (Putnam, 352 pgs., $25.95)

By Lezlie Patterson McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Jayne Ann Krentz continues to delve into the world of psi-stuff, but tempers that very well with an endearing romance in her newest contemporary novel, “Copper Beach.”

“Copper Beach” is the first of a new series, and it starts off with promise.

While the hero and heroine have psi-talents and the plot does center around stopping a psi-bad guy, the paranormal aspects of this book are not very cumbersome and don’t complicate the story.

Abby’s psi-talent centers on her ability to un- psi-code psi-encrypted books. That puts her in danger when a bad guy needs that talent

to translate a lab book that will allow him to use hidden crystals to wreak havoc on the world.

Once she realizes she is in danger, she hires Sam to protect her.

And he does.

Sam is from a rich and powerful family, and has some psi-talent of his own.

He’s a bit of recluse on a private San Juan Island. His family and neighbors think it’s because he has a broken heart. But it isn’t.

Krentz does a great job of keeping a reader’s attention with twists and secrets. Sam and Abby are also charming and compelling characters that entertain with their intelligence, forthright honesty and dry wit.

One bit of advice: Don’t try to over-think, understand or analyze this book. Just enjoy it.

BREAST CANCER/SURGERY QUESTION: My mother and grandmother had breast cancer in their 40s and I am concerned about my chances of getting breast cancer. Is there any way to know what my personal risk is?

ANSWER: Breast cancer is certainly an inherited disease in many cases. Some factors that contribute to breast cancer risk include family history of breast cancer in Jana Vanamburg, first degree relatives, early start of menstruation in M.D., FACS life and/or late menopause, having no children or having children late in life, having previous breast biopsies, and exposure to radiation to the chest or estrogen hormones. Thanks to the Human Genome Project we have learned much about the heritability of this disease. There is a test for specific breast cancer genes known as BRCA 1 and 2. It is a simple blood test that can be done on a patient who has been diagnosed with breast cancer. There are many qualifiers that need to be met for insurance to cover this test, but being younger than 50, having immediate family members with breast cancer, having multiple breast cancers at once, or having certain aggressive breast cancers at younger than 60 years of age are some. If a test comes back positive for a genetic mutation in a woman with breast cancer, then her relatives can be tested for about 1/10 the cost of the original test.

Men can carry the mutation too, so they can be tested if a mutation is found.

Genetic testing of the actual breast cancer tumors is being done now to help design better chemotherapy treatment regimens and determine who needs chemotherapy or not.

PHYSICAL THERAPY QUESTION:

The back of my thigh hurts when I try to increase my mileage or speed when I run.

What is causing this pain?

A NSWER : What you are describing sounds like your hamstring muscle, which is the large muscle that travels from the top of the thigh to just below your knee.

This muscle helps control the leg during the late swing Siiri Berg, phase of your stride. It gets irritated for various reasons MPT, OCS including: muscle tightness, strength imbalances, and training errors. The high impact and repetitive nature of running magnifies small imbalances and inefficiencies leading to pain, injury, and ultimately time off.

A skilled physical therapist can help you address the problem hamstring muscle or determine if your symptoms are coming from something else. They can also determine the underlying causes contributing to the added stress on the muscle.

Tightness in the hip joint, particular weakness, abnormal gait patterns or a combination of all three can contribute to excessive stress on the hamstring and increase likelihood of injury. Your PT can develop a customized plan to address your specific needs and deficits. They will help monitor your progress to ensure that you can return to all of your desired activities without return of symptoms and guide you on a path to wellness, as well as future injury prevention.

QUESTION: I have heard about conservative dentistry but don’t really understand what that means.

Can you explain?

ANSWER: A lot of people get confused by this term.

Some think that having conservative dentistry means that treatment is only initiated when it is absolutely unavoidable. Initially this approach appears more conservative but in reality it is more destructive over time.

Kelley Mingus, Conservative dentistry is actually about preserving your D.M.D. natural tooth structure. Lets face it, nothing that replaces your natural tooth structure works as well. Strong, healthy, natural tooth structure creates a healthier environment to prevent gum disease, it resists bacterial invasion better, and protects against decay better. People are living much longer today than we did just a few short years ago. The focus on conserving your natural teeth and maintaining a healthy environment is more important today than ever. A proactive conservative approach to dentistry results in far fewer crowns (caps), which results in less root canals, which results in far less extractions, etc. I think you get my point. The incidence of Gum disease is also reduced through conservative dentistry.

The traditional model of fix it when it breaks lends to an increase in dental treatment over a lifetime. We now know through science and research that conservative dentistry that focuses on prevention lends to an overall decrease in dentistry and an increase in overall health.

QUESTION: This year (like so many in the past) my New Year’s Resolution is to be more proactive with my health.

I am a poor sleeper and rely on coffee to get me through the day. What can Chinese Medicine do to help with my 2012 Wellness Goals?

Angela Freeman, A NSWER: Great question and one that often L.Ac gets overlooked! Chinese medicine (herbs and acupuncture) takes a holistic approach in treating each patient. We uncover patterns that may be responsible for the root of the problem. Insomnia for example, has many unique characteristics that we identify and then correct with acupuncture and herbs. Sleep is an imperative component for our health and vitality. Coffee just masks our fatigue and can often have an addictive quality.

Acupuncture helps bring the body into a more balance state enabling the patient to have more energy naturally without the assistance of stimulants. I commend you on taking a proactive stance in your health!

ANSWER: hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) for weight loss is not a new concept. It has been used in Europe for over 50 years and is based on the work of Dr. Simeon. hCG is produced by the body during pregnancy and has historically been used in the Kerie Raymond, treatment of fertility and as an adjunct in testosterone D.C. ND replacement therapy. According to Dr. Simeon, hCG in the treatment of obesity helps to mobilize non-essential fat, decrease hunger pain, and reset the metabolic rate by its effects on the pituitary and thyroid gland. Based on Simeon’s research individuals lose roughly one pound each day and 85% do not gain weight back through what he calls a “resetting of the metabolic rate”. A review of literature found no statistical difference in weight loss between hCG plus low calorie diet and a low calorie diet alone.

However, the hCG group did not gain as much weight back on follow-up and reported better well-being and less hunger than the low calorie diet alone.

We will be conducting a Weight loss/Detox class as a prelude to the hCG program starting Feb. 7th. Please call our office for more details.

THE BULLETIN • SUNDAY, JANUARY 29, 2012

Athletics Continued from F1 The damage to reputation was clear in a November survey by Widmeyer Communications in which 83 percent of 1,000 respondents blamed the “culture of big money” in college sports for Penn State officials’ failure to report suspected child abuse to local law enforcement; 40 percent said they would discourage their child from choosing a Division I institution “that places a strong emphasis on sports,” and 72 percent said Division I sports has “too much influence over college life.”

Has big-time sports hijacked the American campus? The word today is “balance,” and the worry is how to achieve it.

‘This commercial thing’ The explosion in televised games has spread sports fever well beyond traditional hotbeds like Alabama and Ole Miss. Classes are canceled to accommodate broadcast schedules, and new research suggests that fandom can affect academic performance.

Campus life itself revolves around not just going to games but lining up and camping out to get into them.

“It’s become so important on the college campus that it’s one of the only ways the student body knows how to come together,” said Allen Sack, president-elect of the Drake Group, a faculty network that lobbies for academic integrity in college sports. “In China and other parts of the world, there are no gigantic stadiums in the middle of campus. There is a laser focus on education as being the major thing. In the United States, we play football.”

Sack, interim dean of the University of New Haven’s college of business, was sipping orange juice at a coffee shop a few blocks from the Yale Bowl. It was a fitting place to meet, given that when the Ivy League was formed in 1954, presidents of the eight member colleges saw where football was headed and sought to stop it. The pact they made, according to a contemporaneous account in The Harvard Crimson, aimed to ensure that players would “enjoy the game as participants in a form of recreational competition rather than as professional performers in public spectacles.”

There is nothing recreational about Division I football today, says Sack, who played for Notre Dame in the 1960s.

Since then, athletic departments have kicked the roof off their budgets, looking more like independent franchises than university departments.

It is that point — “this commercial thing” in the middle of academia, as Charles Clotfelter, a public policy professor at Duke, put it — that some believe has thrown the system out of kilter. In his recent book “Big-Time Sports in American Universities,” Clotfelter notes that between 1985 and 2010, average salaries at public universities rose 32 percent for full professors, 90 percent for presidents and 650 percent for football coaches.

The same trend is apparent in a 2010 Knight Commission report that found the 10 highest-spending athletic departments spent a median of $98 million in 2009, compared with $69 million just four years earlier. Spending on high-profile sports grew at double to triple the pace of that on academics. For example, Big Ten colleges, including Penn State, spent a median of $111,620 per athlete on athletics and $18,406 per student on academics.

Division I football and basketball, of course, bring in millions of dollars a year in ticket sales, booster donations

and cable deals. Penn State football is a money-maker: 2010 Department of Education figures show the team spending $19.5 million and bringing in almost $73 million, which helps support 29 varsity sports. Still, only about half of big-time programs end up in the black; many others have to draw from student fees or the general fund to cover expenses. And the gap between top programs and wannabes is only growing with colleges locked into an arms race to attract the best coaches and build the most luxurious venues in hopes of luring top athletes, and donations from happy alumni.

Fandom and academics College sports doesn’t just demand more and more money; it is demanding more attention from fans.

Glen Waddell, associate professor of economics at the University of Oregon, wanted to know how much. In a study published last month as part of the National Bureau of Education Research working paper series, Oregon researchers compared student grades with the performance of the Ducks, winner of this year’s Rose Bowl and a crowd pleaser in their Nike uniforms in crazy color combinations and mirrored helmets.

“Here is evidence that suggests that when your football team does well, grades suffer,” said Waddell, who compared transcripts of over 29,700 students from 1999 to 2007 against Oregon’s win-loss record. For every three games won, grade-point average for men dropped 0.02, widening the GPA gender gap by 9 percent. Women’s grades didn’t suffer. In a separate survey of 183 students, the success of the Ducks also seemed to cause slacking off: Students reported studying less (24 percent of men, 9 percent of women), consuming more alcohol (28 percent, 20 percent) and partying more (47 percent, 28 percent).

While acknowledging a need for more research, Waddell believes the results should give campus leaders pause: Fandom can carry an academic price. “No longer can it be the case where we skip right over that inconvenience,” he said.

Clotfelter, too, wanted to examine study habits. He tracked articles downloaded from campus libraries during March Madness, the National Collegiate Athletic Association basketball tournament.

Library patrons at universities with teams in the tournament viewed 6 percent fewer articles a day as long as their team was in contention. When a team won an upset or close game, article access fell 19 percent the day after the victory.

Neither dip was made up later with increased downloads.

“Big-time sports,” Clotfelter said, “have a real effect on the way people in universities behave.”

At Duke, one of the country’s top universities, men’s basketball sets the rhythms of campus life. Of 600 students who study abroad each year, only 100 do it in the spring. It probably doesn’t need to be said, but you don’t schedule anything opposite a basketball game. Ever. “If there’s a basketball game, you don’t hold the meeting, you don’t hold the event,” said Larry Moneta, vice president for student affairs.

Then there’s the annual campout of 1,000 at Krzyzewskiville, the patch of grass named for coach Mike Krzyzewski outside the hulking Gothic-style gymnasium, to determine the order of the line into the game against the rival University of North Carolina, which the Blue Devils host March 3. Moneta several years ago stepped in to

ban tents before the first day of classes after winter break (some had started the day after Christmas), but he has mostly “let the students own this.” He was pleased when they decided tenting wouldn’t start this year until a week later, Jan. 15. Tenters can sleep indoors when it’s below 20 degrees or there is “more than two inches of accumulated snow.” The rest of the time, students must prove their devotion (extra points for game attendance) and their residency (middleof-the-night tent checks by “line monitors” signaled by a bullhorn).

Even grad students hold their own campout, with 2,200 spending a weekend in tents and RVs to enter a lottery for season tickets; only 725 get lucky. It’s become such a big deal that a law professor said they “have to figure out when that is” so as not to invite law firms to campus for interviews that weekend.

While Moneta has “concerns about occasional alcohol use and abuse” among K-Ville undergrads (line monitors must intervene if they spot drinking games), he said students manage to camp out “for the most part without any negative effect on academics.”

‘Tribal religion’ Orin Starn, a Duke professor who is a longtime critic of its participation in Division I athletics, begs to differ. He objects to sports occupying “this gigantic place in the university landscape.” He calls basketball “a strain of anti-intellectualism” that claims too much time and attention. But as an anthropologist — he teaches “Anthropology of Sports” — he understands why. “It’s like going to the Metropolitan Opera or the New York City Ballet,” he said. “It’s a chance to see these incredible athletes and this legendary coach.”

Starn put a scholarly spin on it: “Big-time sports have become a modern tribal religion for college students.” There are sacred symbols (team logos), a high priest (Coach K) and shared rituals (chants and face painting). “This generation loves pageantry and tradition.

School spirit is in right now.

Now it’s hip to be a joiner, and it’s hip to be a sports fan.” Also, he observed, “these kids have grown up with the idea that sports are really a major part of American society and something they should care about.”

Duke’s game against North Carolina is special, but it doesn’t take much to provoke a queue for men’s basketball. At 8:50 a.m. one day last

month, students gathered at K-Ville. It didn’t matter that it was Wednesday, that the game wasn’t for 10 hours, that it would rain (even pour), or that Daniel Carp and Matthew Grossman — first in line — had papers due (Carp on the religious indoctrination of children; Grossman about Kant and the boundaries of mere reason).

The matchup against Colorado State wasn’t even a compelling out-of-conference game. But the point was not just to be at the game but to befirst to enter Cameron Indoor Stadium, thereby securing the best seats in the famed student section.

“Every time they swipe my card and I go in, I get this overwhelming enthusiasm.

‘I’m here! It’s game time!’”

Grossman, a freshman from Atlanta, explained between bites of a burger topped with crumbled blue cheese after the game, blue and white paint still adorning his face.

The rise of near-professional college sports has fueled the rise of near-professional fans.

Carp, a freshman from Philadelphia sporting a No. 2 jersey, said that being a fan was integral to college life. “You just learn really early on how to make going to basketball games part of your everyday routine.”

Similar scenes play out at Oklahoma State, Texas A&M, North Carolina State, the University of Missouri, San Diego State and Xavier University, where students line up or camp out for days to get into games. At the University of Kentucky, they camp out for access to the official start

of basketball practice.

For a Tuesday night game against Duke in Columbus (for which there were enough seats, according to Collins, the Block O president), Ohio State students pitched tents along the outside wall of Schottenstein Center starting at 5 p.m. on a Sunday.

“I can imagine they may have neglected a class or two on Monday and Tuesday,” Collins said. “But we are here for four years. What will you remember 10 years from now, that you decided to write that English paper, or you had front row seats at the Duke game?”

Worry about students making that sort of academic tradeoff led officials at Indiana University, Bloomington, to cut short “Camp Crean” (after coach Tom Crean) last month when students started lining up four days in advance for the Hoosiers basketball game against Kentucky. “It’s the week before finals, and we didn’t want the kids camping out and staying up for days when its going to be in the 20s and — oh, by the way — it’s finals,” said the university spokesman, Mark Land.

While only “a small number” of students had started camping, Land noted, “if you get hundreds out there, it’s a party atmosphere.”

College sports on TV Television has fed the popularity. The more professional big-time college sports has become, the more nonathletes have been drawn in, said Murray Sperber, author of “Beer and Circus: How Big-Time College Sports Has Crippled Undergraduate Education.”

“Media coverage gets into kids’ heads,” he said, “and by the time they are ready to choose a college, it becomes a much bigger factor than it was historically.”

In the last 10 years, the number of college football and basketball games on ESPN channels rose to 1,320 from 491.

This doesn’t include games shown by competitors: the Big 10 Network, Fox, CBS/Turner, Versus and NBC. All that programming means big games scheduled during the week and television crews, gridlock and tailgating on campus during the school day.

“How can you have a Wednesday night football game without shutting down the university for a day or two?” asked Sack of the Drake Group with a twinge of sarcasm. He’s not exactly wrong, though. Last semester, the University of Central Florida canceled afternoon classes before the televised game against the University of Tulsa. Mississippi State canceled a day of classes

before a Thursday night broadcast of a football game against Louisiana State, creating an online skirmish between Bulldog fans and a blogger who suggested parents should get their tuition back.

Even Boston College bowed, canceling afternoon classes because the football game against Florida State was on ESPN at 8 p.m. Janine Hanrahan, a Boston College senior, was so outraged at missing her political science class, “Immigration, Processes and Policies,” that she wrote an opinion piece headlined “B.C.’s Backwards Priorities” in the campus newspaper. “It was an indication that football was superseding academics,” she explained. (“We are the national role model,” a university spokesman, Jack Dunn, responded. “We are the school everyone calls to say, ‘Where do you find the balance?’”)

What would balance really look like?

Duke officials pride themselves in offering both an excellent education and a stellar sports program.

Six years ago this spring, Duke experienced its own national scandal when three lacrosse players were accused of rape by a stripper hired for a party at the “lacrosse house” — a bungalow since torn down. The charges were deemed to be false, but the episode prompted university leaders to think hard about the relationship between academics and athletics.

Kevin White, the athletic director, now reports directly to the president of Duke. It was part of structural changes to more healthily integrate athletics into university life, said James Coleman Jr., a law professor who is chairman of the faculty athletics council and was chairman of the committee that investigated the athletes’ behavior. (Vanderbilt made an even stronger move in 2008, disbanding the athletics department and folding it into the student life division.)

Sitting in his office on Duke’s Durham, N.C., campus, Coleman set his lunch tray on a mountain of papers and explained the challenges. He calls sports “a public square for universities” but also acknowledges how rising commercialism comes with strings that “have become spider webs.”

‘MEGA’ SHAKEDOWN

File-sharing sites duck and cover

By Nicole Perlroth and Quentin Hardy New York Times News Service

SAN FRANCISCO — If Megaupload is guilty, then who among its brethren is innocent?

On Thursday, federal authorities shut down Megaupload, an online file-sharing service, and accused its operators of copyright infringement and running a vast “Mega Conspiracy.” They could face 20 years in prison.

But Megaupload was not the only such service on the Web. Many companies have crowded into the online storage market recently, most of them aimed at consumers and businesses that want convenient ways to get big data files out of their teeming inboxes, off their devices and Some into the clouds cloud — perhaps MediaFire so that Dropbox friends Box.net or coYouSendIt workers RapidShare can SugarSync download ZumoDrive them.

Amazon They Webservices include Google MediaFire, RapidShare, YouSendIt, Dropbox and Box.net. And there are similar services from Amazon, Google and Microsoft.

All of these market themselves as legitimate ways to store content online. But they are inherently ideal for anyone looking to illegitimately upload and share copyrighted video and audio files. Most companies rarely, if ever, inspect individual files to see if the material they store on behalf of users violates copyrights, unless they are notified by someone claiming infringement.

The Megaupload indictment reminds companies that how they manage copyrighted material on their sites could determine whether they continue to operate freely or face legal consequences. At the same time, it offers a look at just how widespread such piracy is and how tricky it can be to cut down on it, given the many ways people can send files to each other online.

• MYO Tobacco rents machine that lets customers make their own cheaper ‘smokes’

By Rachael Rees The Bulletin

hen Mark Lobel’s cabinet business began to slow down, he decided to invest in the tobacco industry. But unlike other Central Oregon retailers, he had no desire to sell prepackaged cigarettes.

Instead, he purchased an RYO Filling Station, providing customers with a machine to make their own cigarettes.

Increased federal and state taxes have pushed the per-pack price of factory-made cigarettes in Oregon above $5, prompting some smokers to roll their own.

To help them out, an Ohio company, RYO Machine Rental, created the Filling Station and now has more than 1,000 machines nationwide including three in Oregon.

On its website, the company says retailers who buy a machine can make a 300 percent return on their investment in the first year. The draw to consumers: cigarettes for nearly half the price.

ing Station for $34,000. In September he opened MYO Tobacco, near Southeast Cleveland Avenue and Southeast Third Street.

Lobel may have Central Oregon’s lone roll-your-own Filling Station, but he’s now joined a national battle over

tobacco that’s playing out in federal courts. It has raised questions about the differences between pipe tobacco and the roll-your-own variety and the definition of a tobacco products manufacturer.

Changing the world, one T-shirt at a time

By Ricardo Lopez Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — At Sevenly, a business started by young entrepreneurs in Fullerton, Calif., a key to the operation is the number seven.

Each line of T-shirts and hoodies designed by the company goes on sale for exactly seven days. No more, no less.

The company donates to seven causes: anti-slavery, hunger relief, clean water, medical help, disaster relief, anti-poverty and miscellaneous aid.

And for every item sold, Sevenly donates — you guessed it — $7.

“It’s a great number,” said cofounder Dale Partridge, who holds the title of chief world changer. “We just happened to be able to break down the world’s greatest issues into seven causes, seven days in a

week, etc.

“It had tons of parallel brand play.”

Partridge, in the hallowed

tradition of entrepreneurs, is always looking for an edge and an opportunity. At 26, he already has created and sold a

small fitness company, and he currently co-owns a chain of rock climbing gyms in California’s Inland Empire.

The hook at Sevenly, which he cofounded last year with Aaron Chavez, 19, goes beyond the number gimmick.

The company is following a recent trend in business models — for-profit firms that donate a major percentage of their revenue to charitable causes.

In Sevenly’s case, it’s nearly 30 percent. That might seem like a huge cut of revenue, but it’s also a way to generate sales.

“Consumers want to do business with brands who do good,” said Loren Solomon, founder of Advertising for Good, an agency that creates marketing campaigns for nonprofits.

Starbucks adds beer, wine to lure customers

By Leslie Patton Bloomberg News

CHICAGO — Starbucks Corp., the world’s largest coffee-shop chain, will sell beer and wine at more locations to lure customers during the slower afternoon and evening hours.

The chain, which first served alcohol in October 2010 at a Seattle store, will sell beer and wine in as many as 25 locations by the end of this year, the Seattle-based company said in a statement Monday.

Stores in Chicago, Atlanta and southern California are among the new locations, Starbucks said.

The specific stores have been “carefully selected� and are larger and have more seating than regular Starbucks sites, Clarice Turner, senior vice president of U.S. operations, said in an interview Monday. Starbucks also is selling fruit-and- cheese plates and focaccia with olive oil at the stores that serve alcohol, she said. The company isn’t considering the concept for the whole chain, Turner said. “It won’t be at every Starbucks store ever,� she said.

At the six stores that now sell alcohol in Seattle and Portland beer is $5 and glasses of wine are $7 to $9. Starbucks is creating the bar menu “so it’s relevant to local taste preferences,� Turner said, declining to name specific brands that the stores will carry. “They have plenty of business in the morning,� Sara Senatore, a New York-based analyst at Sanford C. Bernstein & Co. said in an interview. Starbucks isn’t making full use of its workers and real estate in the later part of the day, she said.

Other restaurants, such as Dunkin’ Donuts, have introduced nonbreakfast foods to attract people after the morning hours. McDonald’s sells coffee drinks, smoothies and McSnack wraps during its slower afternoon time.

Selling alcohol probably won’t hurt profit at Starbucks, Senatore said. Most alcoholic beverages have about a 75 percent margin, which is comparable to coffee drinks, she said.

There could be some additional expenses for bartenders, insurance and licensing, Senatore said. “The incremental costs are really going to be about labor,� she said.

There are more than 10,700 Starbucks cafes in the United States and about 6,200 internationally.

New dollar store strategies worth a buck

By Janet Moore (Minneapolis) Star Tribune

MINNEAPOLIS — A few days after the New Year’s holiday, clerks at the Dollar Tree store in the St. Paul, Minn., Midway neighborhood were busily setting up new displays celebrating Valentine’s Day and Super Bowl Sunday. Any remnants of the Christmas holiday season were long stowed away, and the bright new merchandise enticed shoppers anew.

No longer dusty, outof-the-way haunts, dollar stores have grown into a $56 billion industry, a 43 percent increase since 1998, according to the industry research firm IBISWorld.

One of the few niches of retail expanding in a dim economy, the dollar store industry’s four top players — three of which are Fortune 500 companies — are no longer snubbed by developers, landlords, investors and consumers because of their perceived workingclass customer. Publicly traded Dollar General, Dollar Tree, Family Dollar and 99 Cents Only Stores are expanding rapidly — so much so, a recent report

by Colliers International found, that there are more dollar stores nationwide than drugstores, a profound conclusion given the nation’s aging population.

Dollar stores have responded to the new valueobsessed consumer by providing a brighter, cleaner retail experience with a dependable, well-edited selection of goods, including many food items and some perishables like milk and eggs.

Dollar chains are opening hundreds of new locations. This is a fortuitous development for commercial real estate brokers. As national retailers such as Borders, Linens ’n Things, Ultimate Electronics and others shut their doors, landlords have struggled to fill empty space in their shopping centers. Dollar stores often fill the void.

All of the chains emphasize convenience when looking for new space.

Typically, they rely on automobile counts on nearby roads as a way of winnowing down potential sites, according to the Colliers report, while other retailers fervently study a potential market’s demographics. In competitive markets, the success of a dollar store often depends on storefront visibility and the impulse shopping urge that it encourages. “Dollar store success depends on the power of the spontaneous purchase,� said Andrea Christenson,

vice president at Cassidy Turley, a Minneapolis-based real estate firm. “You may not need anything going in, but you develop a need once you’re inside.�

Dollar here, dollar there Dollar General recently announced that it would open 625 more stores this year — almost two a day — across the country, said Tawn Earnest, spokeswoman for the Tennessee-based chain. She declined to be more specific. Dollar General is the largest chain nationally with more than 9,800 stores.

Historically, Dollar General has opened in rural areas that were so sparsely populated that even Walmart passed.

Today, 70 percent of the stores serve communities with fewer than 20,000 residents, according to its annual report. Customers typically live within three to five miles of the store — within a 10-minute drive — and they shop in the store an average of 10 minutes.

Earnest said customers “demand convenience and low prices. We’re positioned well against drugstores because they have higher prices, and against big boxes,� which are so big they’re overwhelming to some shoppers.

When Dollar General announced plans to expand this year, the company also said it would renovate or relocate another 550 stores. At first blush, this may sound like a Herculean effort, but a key to Dollar General’s and its competitors’ success is that a minimal initial investment is required and low maintenance beyond that.

The company says it spends about $75,000 for equipment and fixtures to remodel a store, and about $140,000 to relocate one.

The chain does not strictly adhere to the dollar-only price point, and instead offers a va-

riety of value-priced merchandise ranging from a limited selection of clothing to paper products and food — sort of a mix between convenience and variety store. “I come here for munchies and pop,� said Wayne Evenson, who lives near the Dollar General Store in Mounds View, Minn. “They have those cheddar cheese fries snacks that I like. They also have the one kind of cat food my cat likes.� Evenson said he visits the store three or four times a month, or whenever he has a little extra money.

Vladimir Lelchuk also can’t resist the deals. The St. Louis Park, Minn., retiree recently emerged from the Dollar Tree in Eden Prairie, Minn., with a coveted package of frozen hash brown patties that sells for twice the price at Trader Joe’s. “Look at this,� the fervent dollar store shopper declared. “One dollar!�

Virginia-based Dollar Tree, where every item is indeed a

dollar, prefers opening new stores in strip shopping centers anchored by mass merchandisers like Target or Walmart, or by grocers, in urban and suburban markets and small towns. It said the number of stores planned for this fiscal year will be announced next month.

Sometimes grocery stores and big boxes try to restrict dollar stores from their shopping centers because they may erode sales. “They’re everywhere,� said Jamie Cohen, a broker with Upland Real Estate in Minneapolis, who counts Dollar Tree as a client. “I’ve been representing them for 10 years, and have never encountered any resistance (by landlords).�

Hospice Home Health Hospice House Transitions

541.382.5882 www.partnersbend.org

Cohen says his experience shows that discounters prefer having a dollar store nearby because they add to consumer traffic.

Conversely, Family Dollar targets low- and middle-income consumers at its 7,100 stores nationwide. About 54 percent of the firm’s customers had annual gross income of less than $40,000, and about 24 percent had a gross income of less than $20,000, according to a securities filing. The typical consumer is a female head-of-household.

Because the chain has an urban orientation, it is forced to focus more on price to combat competition, according to the Colliers report. Still, Family Dollar expects to open 450 to 500 stores nationwide this fiscal year, although the locations haven’t been announced yet. “They offer price and convenience, and that’s pretty much a slam-dunk,� said Mark Miller, an analyst with William Blair & Co. As chains expand, there is a danger of oversaturation, often a death knell for many national stores, said Ann Natunewicz, manager of retail research for Colliers. Historically, newer entrants are more vulnerable when consumer sentiment changes, particularly if the economy turns around.

But, she added, “I don’t see any change in consumer sentiment regarding dollar stores in the foreseeable future. It’s now OK to be a value shopper.�

Hotel chains join together to launch Roomkey.com

By Karen Robinson-Jacobs Dallas Morning News

DALLAS — The love-hate relationship between hotel operators and increasingly popular online travel sites took a turn this month with the launch of a Dallas-based search engine called Roomkey.com.

Founded by six major hotel chains, including Hilton Worldwide, Hyatt Hotels and Wyndham Hotel Group, the

site channels consumers to the chains’ own websites to book rooms, bypassing third parties such as Priceline.com and Travelocity.com.

The launch is seen by some industry insiders as an attempt to recapture revenue lost to the online travel giants.

“This is going to compete directly with the Expedias and Hotels.com,” said Tom O’Rourke, president and chief executive of O’Rourke Hospital-

ity Marketing. “Let’s say I’m Bill Marriott (of Marriott International Inc.). I can take that money back, put it into my property, service my guests better, and it’s a much better business model for me.”

Of the estimated $33.8 billion in hotel rooms booked online in 2011, about 55 percent, or $18.6 billion, came directly through hotels’ own websites, according to Carroll Rheem, director

of research at PhoCusWright Inc., a research firm. About 45 percent, or $15.2 billion, was booked through online travel agents — up from only $2 billion as recently as 2001, Rheem said.

As the popularity of online sites has grown, so has the cut paid to the online travel agencies. That’s been a growing source of angst for hoteliers, who see razor-thin margins on some rooms sold through online sites.

Tobacco Continued from G1 It also leaves the future profitability of RYO machines — and Lobel’s business — uncertain.

That may be, he said, but he plans to continue until things change.

While he’s never been a smoker, Lobel said, he realized smokers were looking for a cheaper way to get their fix.

With the RYO Filling Station, Lobel said, customers create their own “smokes,” the term RYO machine retailers use for the cigarettes customers make when they rent the machine.

To make 200 “smokes,” he said, customers must pay for three things: loose tobacco, $20; paper tubes, $3; and machine rental, $7 for eight minutes. Customers can also roll a smaller quantity of cigarettes for less money.

But when the federal Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau ruled in September 2010 that retailers who provide machines allowing consumers to make their own cigarettes are tobacco product manufacturers, RYO Machine Rental filed a federal lawsuit in Ohio against the bureau, which is part of the U.S. Treasury Department.

The company argued the ruling was unprecedented and takes away consumers’ right to make cigarettes for their personal use, free from the bureau’s regulation, according to court documents.

The federal agency said RYO machines operating in commercial establishments

Charity Continued from G1 Since launching in June, Sevenly has sold more than 29,000 items and donated more than $200,000 to charities including Cure Childhood Cancer in Atlanta; the International Justice Mission, which fights sex trafficking abroad; and Hope International, which provides micro-financing for developing businesses in Africa.

Toms Shoes, in Santa Monica, Calif., is one of the best known companies built on a social-good business model.

For every pair of shoes sold, the company — founded in 2006 by Blake Mycoskie — donates a pair for a child in a Third World country.

For some customers, wearing Toms has become as much a fashion statement as a public proclamation that they’re socially responsible.

“It’s cool to be socially good today,” said Aradhna Krishna, a University of Michigan professor who studies cause marketing.

A consumer study last year by the Cone Communications public relations agency found that 80 percent of those surveyed said they would be likely to switch to a brand associated with a good cause if product price and quality were comparable.

In the 18-to-24 age group — commonly called millennials — 53 percent had purchased a product or service tied to a cause in the last year.

Sevenly, which has a staff of 12 including the founders, has had $700,000 in sales since its inception, Partridge said. Even with giving away nearly 30 percent to causes, he said the company makes a small profit.

The idea for the business was born in Partridge’s living room in Corona, Calif., in April when he and Chavez, who had dropped out of junior college to become a social media consultant, began brainstorming about how to blend charity, social media and e-commerce.

“What’s the point of having a business that’s not doing anything for the community?”

Partridge asked.

evade the payment of excise taxes.

In December of 2010, U.S. District Judge David Dowd Jr. issued a preliminary injunction, restricting the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau from enforcing the rule until the case concludes. The bureau and the Treasury Department appealed the injunction to the U.S. Court of Appeals, putting the case on hold.

The definition of a tobacco products manufacturer became even more important after passage of the Children’s Health Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2009.

It raised the tax on roll-yourown tobacco to $24.78 per pound and pipe tobacco to $2.83. Before the new law, both were taxed at

for a variety of charities that had on-the-ground resources to put donations to use in a meaningful way.

Once a charity is identified, Sevenly’s designers create typography and images to go onto stock T-shirts and hoodies. For example, clothing designed for a recent sale that gave funds to Girls Educational & Mentoring Services — a nonprofit that aids young women who have been sexually exploited — said “Girls Are Not For Sale.”

“Like any nonprofit, we are always looking for new ways to get our message out there and fundraise,” said Bianca Baquerizo, of GEMS. “Sevenly did that on both fronts.”

Items designed for a Sevenly campaign are sold for seven days exclusively on its website.

T-shirts go for $22 and hoodies are $35.

The sale is promoted via Sevenly’s social media outlets, but the company also asks the causes to promote the campaigns through their own Facebook pages and tweets.

For its week in the Sevenly spotlight, GEMS, based in Harlem, N.Y., got $16,000. Not a huge amount, but the nonprofit also benefited from being featured on the Sevenly site.

“Because they have a lot of followers, they brought a lot of attention to our cause,” Baquerizo said. “There are more people now who know about GEMS.” And, of course, it works both ways — people who visited the GEMS site that week were exposed to Sevenly’s business.

Chavez said 85 percent of the company’s sales are driven by social media.

“I think it’s really exciting,” said Solomon, of Advertising for Good. “They’ve tapped into the zeitgeist of social media.”

Eventually Partridge and Chavez hope to grow the company to the point where it has about 30 employees and yearly revenue of $30 million.

But maybe not more than that. Getting too big would mean a loss of hands-on control, whether in designing the products or working with nonprofits.

“We’d like to stay small and efficient,” Partridge said.

“That way we can make the most impact.”

about $1.10 per pound, said Tom Hogue, director of congressional and public affairs for the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau.

The law also led to a shift in the amounts each tobacco manufacturer released for sale. Before the health insurance law passed, pipe tobacco represented 13 percent and roll-your-own 87 percent, according to the bureau’s 2010 annual report. After passage, pipe tobacco jumped to 65 percent, and roll-your-own to 35 percent.

But trying to figure out the difference between the two can be difficult, at least by the federal tax code. The bureau initiated laboratory studies to come up with standards to dis-

tinguish them so it could tax them appropriately.

The difference in taxes, however, clearly sets them apart.

Federal tax on factory-made cigarettes equates to $10.07 per 200 cigarettes. It’s $12.39 on 8 ounces, an equivalent amount, of roll-your-own tobacco and $1.46 for 8 ounces of pipe tobacco, according to the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau.

Because the tax on pipe tobacco is less, retailers with RYO machines are selling pipe tobacco, which they call dual tobacco, to give their customers a cheaper alternative, according to retailers and the taxing bureau.

While the RYO machine

retailers face uncertainty at the federal level, they have not raised any concerns with the Oregon Department of Revenue. The state also taxes tobacco.

Derrick Gasperini, communications manager for the department, said as long as the appropriate Oregon tax is being paid on the tobacco product, the department is doing its job.

“Although the U.S. government has a different tax rate on pipe tobacco than rollyour-own tobacco, Oregon has one rate for both products at 65 percent of the wholesale price.”

Joe Baba, the distributor for RYO Filling Stations in Oregon and four other states, said comparing the RYO machine to a commercial cigarette manufacturing factory is like comparing a Ferrari to a mo-ped.

With the RYO machine, consumers can create smokes faster than hand rolling, he said, but it doesn’t come close to the production speed of the large cigarette makers.

“A commercial cigarette manufacturing machine makes 20,000 or more cigarettes a minute,” he said. “(An RYO machine) makes 25 smokes a minute.”

Baba said the RYO industry is growing because customers are saving money, but it’s walking a fine line.

“Big tobacco is watching what we’re doing carefully,” he said. “We’re still a small percentage of tobacco sales, but we’re growing quickly.”

Continued from G1 “The goal of the Megaupload indictment is to push and prod other companies to take copyright infringement more seriously,” said Orin Kerr, a law professor at George Washington University.

Federal prosecutors seem to have thrown the book at Megaupload. The indictment asserts that the company’s business model depended on people violating copyright and that it gave them incentives to do so, while charging subscription fees for watching video and placing ads in front of material it did not own.

When asked to remove copyrighted works, the indictment says, Megaupload at best removed a particular version but left copies elsewhere in its system.

Federal prosecutors assert that although the site claimed to be protected under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, the business was in fact a sham that made $175 million off $500 million in copyrighted goods. Websites that operate in the U.S. are typically offered “safe harbor” for copyright violations under the DMCA, as long as they do not profit from the illegitimate material and immediately take it down once contacted.

But the act treats violations “very much as a ‘you know it when you see it’ rule,” said Aaron Levie, chief executive of Box.net, a popular online storage company. “You look at how they make money, and you look at how they treat DMCA requests to take down material.”

Megaupload waved the DMCA flag even though it was based in Hong Kong and many of its executives were in New Zealand. It was a juicy federal target for its sheer size.

The site accounted for roughly 1 percent of total Internet traffic in North America, nearly 2 percent of traffic in the AsiaPacific region and more than 11 percent in Brazil, according to Sandvine, a Canadian company that provides equipment to monitor Internet traffic. The indictment contends that Megaupload has more than 180 million registered users and, at one point, was the 30th-most-visited site on the Web. Ira Rothken, a lawyer for Megaupload, said on Thursday, “Megaupload believes the government is wrong on the facts, wrong on the law.”

Levie of Box.net noted that his company and Dropbox, as well as the services from Google and Microsoft, were less likely prosecution targets because they depended to a large extent on legitimate corporate purchases of their storage. These services are more focused on sharing within organizations and small groups.

Megaupload had its fans in the workplace, too. A study published Thursday by the security firm Palo Alto Networks indicated that the use of Megaupload on corporate networks was greater than the combined use of Box.net, Dropbox and YouSendIt, as measured by the amount of data transferred. Of course, it is not clear how much of that data was work-related and how much was for the purpose of in-cubicle entertainment.

Continued from G1 Employees work excessive overtime, in some cases seven days a week, and live in crowded dorms. Some say they stand so long that their legs swell until they can hardly walk.

Underage workers have helped build Apple’s products, and the company’s suppliers have improperly disposed of hazardous waste and falsified records, according to company reports and advocacy groups that, within China, are often considered reliable, independent monitors.

More troubling, the groups say, is some suppliers’ disregard for workers’ health. Two years ago, 137 workers at an Apple supplier in eastern China were injured after they were ordered to use a poisonous chemical to clean iPhone screens. Within seven months last year, two explosions at iPad factories, including in Chengdu, killed four people and injured 77.

Before those blasts, Apple had been alerted to hazardous conditions inside the Chengdu plant, according to a Chinese group that published that warning.

“If Apple was warned, and didn’t act, that’s reprehensible,” said Nicholas Ashford, a former chairman of the National Advisory Committee on Occupational Safety and Health, a group that advises the U.S. Labor Department.

“But what’s morally repugnant in one country is accepted business practices in another, and companies take advantage of that.”

Apple is not the only electronics company doing business within a troubling supply system. Bleak working conditions have been documented at factories manufacturing products for Dell, Hewlett-Packard, IBM, Lenovo, Motorola, Nokia, Sony, Toshiba and others.

Current and former Apple executives, moreover, say the company has made significant strides in improving factories in recent years. Apple has a supplier code of conduct that details standards on labor issues, safety protections and numerous other topics. The company has mounted a vigorous auditing campaign, and whenever abuses are discovered, Apple says, corrections are demanded.

But significant problems remain. More than half of the suppliers audited by Apple have violated at least one aspect of the code of conduct every year since 2007, according to Apple’s reports.

“Apple never cared about anything other than increasing product quality and decreasing production cost,” said Li Mingqi, who until April worked in management at Foxconn Technology, one of Apple’s most important manufacturing partners. Li, who is suing Foxconn over his dismissal, helped manage the Chengdu factory where the explosion occurred.

Apple was provided with extensive summaries of this article, but the company declined to comment. The reporting is based on interviews with more than three dozen current or former employees and contractors, including a half-dozen current or former executives with firsthand knowledge of Apple’s supplier responsibility group, as well as others within the technology industry.

The road to Chengdu Foxconn’s factory in Chengdu, Lai Xiaodong knew, was special. Inside, workers were building Apple’s latest, potentially greatest product: the iPad. When Lai landed a job repairing machines at the plant, one of the first things he noticed were the almost blinding lights. Shifts ran 24 hours a day, and the factory was always bright. At any moment, there were thousands of workers standing on assembly lines or sitting in backless chairs, crouching next to large machinery, or jogging between loading bays. Some workers’ legs swelled so much they waddled. “It’s hard to stand all day,” said Zhao Sheng, a plant worker.

Banners on the walls warned the 120,000 employees: “Work hard on the job today or work hard to find a job tomorrow.” Apple’s supplier code of conduct dictates that, except in unusual circumstances, employees are not supposed to work more than 60 hours a week. But at Foxconn, some worked more, according to interviews, workers’ pay stubs and surveys by outside groups. Lai was soon spending 12 hours a day, six days a week inside the factory, according to his paychecks.

Employees who arrived late were sometimes required to write confession letters and copy quotations. There were “continuous shifts,” when workers were told to work two stretches in a row, according to interviews.

Lai’s college degree enabled him to earn a salary of around $22 a day, including overtime — more than many others. When his days ended, he would retreat to a small bedroom just big enough for a mattress, wardrobe and a desk.

Those accommodations were better than many of the company’s dorms, where 70,000 Foxconn workers lived, at times stuffed 20 people to a three-room apartment, employees said. Last year, a dispute over paychecks set off a riot in one of the dormitories.

Foxconn, in a statement, disputed workers’ accounts of continuous shifts, extended overtime, crowded living accommodations and the causes of the riot. The company said that its operations adhered to customers’ codes of conduct, industry standards and national laws. “Conditions at Foxconn are anything but harsh,” the company wrote.

Foxconn also said that it had never been cited by a customer or government for underage or overworked employees or

toxic exposures.

“All assembly line employees are given regular breaks, including one-hour lunch breaks,” the company wrote, and only 5 percent of assembly line workers are required to stand to carry out their tasks.

Work stations have been designed to ergonomic standards, and employees have opportunities for job rotation and promotion, the statement said.

Apple’s code of conduct In 2005, some of Apple’s top executives gathered inside their Cupertino, Calif., headquarters for a special meeting.

Other companies had created codes of conduct to police their suppliers. It was time, Apple decided, to follow suit.

The code Apple published that year demands “that working conditions in Apple’s supply chain are safe, that workers are treated with respect and dignity, and that manufacturing processes are environmentally responsible.”

But the next year, a British newspaper, The Mail on Sunday, secretly visited a Foxconn factory in Shenzhen, China, where iPods were manufactured, and reported on workers’ long hours, push-ups meted out as punishment and crowded dorms. Executives in Cupertino were shocked.

Apple audited that factory, the company’s first such inspection, and ordered improvements. Executives also undertook a series of initiatives that included an annual audit report, first published in 2007. By last year, Apple had inspected 396 facilities — including the company’s direct suppliers, as well as many of those suppliers’ suppliers — one of the largest such programs within the electronics industry.

Those audits have found consistent violations of Apple’s code of conduct, according to summaries published by the company. In 2007, for instance, Apple conducted over three dozen audits, twothirds of which indicated that employees regularly worked more than 60 hours a week. In addition, there were six “core violations,” the most serious kind, including hiring 15year-olds as well as falsifying records.

Over the next three years, Apple conducted 312 audits, and every year, about half or more showed evidence of large

numbers of employees laboring more than six days a week as well as working extended overtime. Apple found 70 core violations over that period.

Last year, the company conducted 229 audits. There were slight improvements in some categories and the detected rate of core violations declined. However, within 93 facilities, at least half of workers exceeded the 60-hours-a-week work limit. A similar number showed employees working more than six days a week.

“If you see the same pattern of problems, year after year, that means the company’s ignoring the issue rather than solving it,” said one former Apple executive with firsthand knowledge of the supplier responsibility group.

“Noncompliance is tolerated, as long as the suppliers promise to try harder next time. If we meant business, core violations would disappear.”

Apple says that when an audit reveals a violation, the company requires suppliers to address the problem within 90 days and make changes to prevent a recurrence. “If a supplier is unwilling to change, we terminate our relationship,” the company says on its website.

The seriousness of that threat, however, is unclear.

Apple has found violations in hundreds of audits, but fewer than 15 suppliers have been terminated for transgressions since 2007, according to former Apple executives.

The explosion On the afternoon of the blast at the iPad plant, Lai Xiaodong telephoned his girlfriend, as he did every day. They had hoped to see each other that evening, but Lai’s manager said he had to work overtime, he told her.

He had been promoted quickly at Foxconn, and after just a few months was in charge of a team that maintained the machines that polished iPad cases.

The morning of the explosion, Lai rode his bicycle to work. The iPad had gone on sale just weeks earlier, and workers were told thousands of cases needed to be polished each day. The factory was frantic, employees said. Rows of machines buffed cases as masked employees pushed buttons. Large air ducts hovered over each station, but they could not keep up with the three lines of machines polishing nonstop. Aluminum

dust was everywhere.

Dust is a known safety hazard. In 2003, an aluminum dust explosion in Indiana destroyed a wheel factory and killed a worker. In 2008, agricultural dust inside a sugar factory in Georgia caused an explosion that killed 14.

Two hours into Lai’s second shift, the building started to shake, as if an earthquake was under way. There was a series of blasts, plant workers said. The toll would eventually count four dead, 18 injured.

At the hospital, Lai’s girlfriend saw that his skin was almost completely burned away.

Eventually, his family arrived. Over 90 percent of his body had been seared.

After Lai died, a team of Foxconn workers drove to Lai’s hometown and delivered a box of ashes. The company later wired a check for about $150,000.

Foxconn, in a statement, said that at the time of the explosion the Chengdu plant was in compliance with all relevant laws and regulations, and “after ensuring that the families of the deceased employees were given the support they required, we ensured that all of the injured employees were given the highest quality medical care.” After the explosion, the company added, Foxconn immediately halted work in all polishing workshops, and later improved ventilation and dust disposal, and adopted technologies to enhance worker safety.

In its most recent supplier responsibility report, Apple wrote that after the explosion, the company contacted “the foremost experts in process safety” and assembled a team to investigate and make recommendations to prevent future accidents.

In December, however, seven months after the blast that killed Lai, another iPad factory exploded, this one in Shanghai. Once again, aluminum dust was the cause, according to interviews and Apple’s most recent supplier responsibility report. That blast injured 59 workers, with 23 hospitalized.

In its most recent supplier responsibility report, Apple wrote that while the two explosions both involved combustible aluminum dust, the causes of the blasts were different. The company declined, however, to provide details.

The report added that Apple had now audited all suppliers polishing aluminum products and had put stronger precautions in place.

For Lai’s family, questions remain.

“We’re really not sure why he died,” said Lai’s mother, standing beside a shrine she built near their home.

“We don’t understand what happened.”

Cadillac SRX: when might feels right

By Warren Brown

2012 Cadillac SRX

Special to The Washington Post

DETROIT — The second time around was better. The whining noises that marred a previous drive through the Allegheny Mountains were gone. The weight that once seemed more albatross than potentially protective benefit was mitigated by an increase in power — 308 horsepower in the 2012 Cadillac SRX wagon driven for this column, up from 265 horsepower in last year’s SRX V-6.

It’s a cliché in automobile manufacturing to say that the only good horsepower is more horsepower. But R E V IE W more, in this case, was a definite benefit in moving something as weighty as the 2012 Cadillac SRX, at 5,467 pounds, across mountain roads.

It’s funny how life works.

A couple of years ago, when I drove here from my home in Virginia, I was more worried about fuel economy than I was about power. Money was tight. Gasoline prices were high. On paper, a Cadillac with a 265-horsepower V-6 engine seemed like a good compromise — enough power and comfort for a long road trip, with minimum fuel costs.

It turned out to be delusional: a fancy, sharp-edged, totally luxurious Cadillac wagon with the heart and soul of a Hyundai Elantra economy sedan. Driving it was like spending a night in a castle without light, heat or food.

Leaving that first SRX parked in Detroit was both blessing and epiphany. I was glad to be done with it, and I was hoisted on my own intellectual petard.

Cadillac via The Washington Post

The 2012 Cadillac SRX Crossover luxury wagon has seen a boost in horsepower but its fuel economy didn’t suffer because of advances in drivetrain technology. It feels like a Cadillac with a bit of an environmental twist.

I have long been among those automotive journalists who have argued for more fuel economy and less horsepower. Worldwide, the automobile industry has been trying to deal with the same argument.

But it’s a difficult issue.

More fuel economy sounds good when you are driving short distances, when you don’t have much to carry or when you have seemingly forever to get where you are going. But it’s a concern when what you really need is power.

I discovered as much on my latest drive to Detroit in the 2012 Cadillac SRX. The extra 43 horsepower in the new engine seems to have made all the difference in the world — no whining, no straining, just a smooth, steady ride up and down hills and around curves, the kind of vehicle

There is now enough power there to make it a serious contender with the Audi Q5 and other luxury crossover-utility wagons. performance that takes the stress out of long-distance driving.

Thanks to advances in drivetrain technology — engine and transmission — fuel consumption in the 2012 Cadillac SRX (the performance model) was not much different from that in the 2011 model — about 17 miles per gallon in the city and 24 on the highway.

The bottom line is that the 2012 Cadillac SRX wagon feels like a Cadillac, but with a bit of an environmental twist. There is now enough power there to make it a serious contender with the Audi Q5 and other luxury cross-

over-utility wagons. There certainly are enough amenities. It could use a diesel engine, or perhaps some form of hybridization, to further increase its now-marginal fuel economy.

But after being pulled through the Alleghenies with zest and gusto, and not worrying about how the new SRX would handle steep inclines, I’m willing to live with the so-

Star Tribune (Minneapolis)

About three years ago, the air bag light came on Q : in my 2005 Hyundai. The dealership fixed it, and the light remained off until the driver’s seat was moved to accommodate a taller driver. The dealership again fixed the problem but told me that I would have to replace the air bag system next time and that the air bags would not deploy in an accident if the light was on. Is this true? The light is once again on.

When the air bag warning light is illuminated, the supplemental restraint system — the air bags — is disabled. Hyundai and other carmakers warn against modifications or repairs to the front seats that could interfere with deployment of the side air bags built into these seats.

So moving or remounting the driver’s seat may be part of the problem. Ask the dealer or an independent shop to plug in a scan tool to read the specific B-series fault code or codes that have triggered the warning light.

Because the first problem with the air bag warning light occurred before the seat was moved, the problem may be easily repairable. But be aware that the seat modification may make it more difficult to find a dealer or shop willing to do the repairs.

I have a 2007 GMC Yukon with 89,000 miles. I take good care of it and change oil every 3,000 or 4,000 miles.

In the past year I have noticed that the “low oil” warning light comes on right around

A:

Q:

Hyundai and other carmakers warn against modifications or repairs to the front seats that could interfere with deployment of the side air bags built into these seats.

tabase pulled up GM service bulletin 10-06-01-008B, dated March 2011, outlining this potential problem. If oil consumption is less than 2,000 miles per quart, the suggested fix is to clean the pistons with a specific application of GM’s upper engine and fuel injector cleaner and install a deflector around the pressure relief valve in the pan to control and redirect the oil spray.

I just purchased a V-8 five-speed 2006 Mustang GT with 40,000 miles.

I will be parking it in a dry, unheated garage for the winter. I am not sure what I need to do to be sure it fires up next spring without any issues.

With such a new, lowmileage vehicle, not much. The basics: Fill the tank with nonoxygenated fuel and add SeaFoam; disconnect the battery and charge once a month or connect an automatic battery maintainer; make sure all routine maintenance like oil changes are up to date; inflate the tires to 35 to 40 pounds per square inch; toss dryer sheets throughout interior, trunk and engine compartment to discourage furry visitors; plug the exhaust outlet with a rag or tennis ball; spray brake rotors with a light rust inhibitor; check antifreeze for anticipated temperatures; open two windows just a fraction, and cover vehicle with a light, breathable car cover.

Say, “Goodnight, sweetheart, we’ll meet again next spring.”

Q:

the time I am due for an oil change. There are no visible signs of a leak or burning oil.

This seems unusual in light of the mileage. This engine switches between V-8 and V6 mode depending on engine load. One mechanic told me that when switching back from the V-8 mode it dumps the excess oil and burns it off.

Is this true?

This aluminum-block V-8 engine has an engine management system that switches between eight and four cylinders. It does this by hydraulically preventing the intake and exhaust valves from opening and the fuel injector from delivering fuel to the cylinders that are being disabled.

In the oil pan is a pressure relief valve that sprays excess oil generated by the cycling of the hydraulic valves that control the valve lifters. If this spray of oil is a bit excessive because of high engine speeds, clearances and wear and tear, it can lead to deposits in piston grooves that can “stick” piston rings and lead to higher oil consumption.

Ride, acceleration and handling: The SRX is competitive in all categories with the Audi Q5 and BMW 3-Series wagons, among other luxury models. This is a solid, noexcuses entry in a fiercely contested market for midsize people haulers.

ROM HIS EMMY-

nominated turn as a conflicted gay Mormon in Angels in America to his current series, A Gifted Man (CBS, Fridays), Patrick Wilson shines in roles calling for seemingly perfect exteriors that hide unexpected depths. The actor, 38—who is also starring opposite Charlize Theron in the antiromantic comedy Young Adult—reveals what lies beneath to Thelma Adams.

PARADE We hear you have a Van Halen cover over band with your brothers, s, called Van Wilson. Where re did your love of ’80s music come from?

There was always lways a lot of music going on in our house. We were ere three boys in the ’80s, 80s, and we ward rock. gravitated toward I think your teenage eenage years define your musical roots ts e forever. You’re always looking g or for a theme for your high school hool years.

What was your ur ? theme song?

I’d say “Goodbye, bye,”

SUNDAY WITH ...

Patrick Wilson The acclaimed actor on back flips, poker faces, and rocking out I put that on a lot of mixtapes for girlfriends.

“I DON’T HAVE ANY CRAZY DEEP, DARK SECRETS. I GUESS I DON’T HAVE A TORTURED SOUL.”

You and your wife, actress Dagmara Dominczyk, have two sons, ages 2 and 5. Are they musical?

Just yesterday my littlest one was singing singin a song, and he went ov over to the piano to play al along. Not the right keys—he keys—he’s no boy genius—but he sang and played in rhyth rhythm. The older one loves musi music too, but he’s shyer abo about it.

What music do they like?

They will say what they don’tt like more m than what they t like, and usua usually that’s deter determined by the girls, g who love Justin Bie Bieber. They will say, “Oooo “Oooo, Daddy, I don’t like Justi Justin Bieber”— or “Beaver,” as they say.

But we’ll listen to songs, and I’ll point ou out voices to them. My 55-year-old knows Elvis Elvis’s voice.

What are yyour Sundays llike? all about the They’re al usually confamily. I’m u

fined to the studio during the week, so I just want to be outside. We do a lot of trampolining. I do back flips—I try to get around twice; I can do one and a half—and we bounce really high. I grew up on one, and my kids know what to do [for safety]. I run a tight ship because I lost a tooth on a trampoline. My brothers and I used to settle our battles there—we’d pretend we were like the WWF [World Wrestling Federation].

What makes you angry?

I don’t like being lied to.

If I’m not going to get a part, tell me why.

On A Gifted Man, your character’s ex-wife returns as a ghost. Do you believe in the supernatural?

I’ve never had any weird experiences, but I’m certainly open to it. I don’t feel like life ends here, I guess.

Parade Picks

P Music EMOTIONAL TRAFFIC Tim McGraw, $15

The country superstar’s latest was mired in a contract dispute for more than a year, but it’s finally out— and it was well worth the wait. Sweet, mid-tempo tracks like “The One” play up McGraw’s vibrant Louisiana twang, while introspective ballads like “Only Human,” featuring pop/R&B singer Ne-Yo, showcase his musical depth and range.

What’s something people don’t know about you?

I love to go to casinos with my wife. I play poker, and she’s an old-fashioned slot queen. She even has a visor.

How’s your poker face?

It’s okay. Inevitably somebody will go, “You’re an actor, I know who you are. ...” Usually they think if I’m a good actor, then I’m a good bluffer. Or they think I’m crazy rich and will go all in, when I’m a pretty conservative player.

One guy was like, “You were in The Fast and the Furious.”

And I said, “No, that’s Paul Walker.” He went away for a few minutes and came back and said, “I’ve got it—Into the Blue.” And I was like, “Still Paul Walker ...”

P Television LUCK (HBO, Sundays, 9 p.m. ET)

Manner Up! Ready to try to quit smoking?

Meet another option.

Modern etiquette made easy

Q: My buddy often drinks too much when he comes over. The last time he did, we got in a fight when I asked for his car keys before he left.

How can we avoid having that argument again?

—Name withheld, Albuquerque, N.M.

A: You have two choices: Either don’t serve liquor when he visits or talk to him ahead of time (not when he’s already sloshing around your living room). Tell him he means a lot to you.

Tell him you couldn’t live with yourself if anything happened to him on your watch, or to someone else because of him. (Not to mention the fact that if he’s underage, you could be thrown in jail, and if he’s an adult you could be sued.)

Tell him it’s a house rule: No one gets behind the wheel after drinking. Then give him the website for the National Directory of Designated Driver Services: drinkinganddriving.org /tools/services.html. It provides phone numbers to call in almost every state when you need a lift home.

Pretty nifty, right? It could save your friendship; more important, it could save lives.

Trying to quit smoking but need some help? Talk to your doctor to see if NICOTROL Inhaler—the inhaled prescription nicotine replacement therapy—may be right for you.

NICOTROL Inhaler, when used as part of a comprehensive behavioral smoking cessation program, may help you quit smoking by reducing your urge to smoke.1

For more information on NICOTROL Inhaler, visit www.Nicotrol.com/2012 Indication NICOTROL Inhaler is indicated as an aid to smoking cessation for the relief of nicotine withdrawal symptoms. It is available only by prescription and is recommended for use as part of a comprehensive behavioral smoking cessation program.

Important Safety Information Do not use the NICOTROL Inhaler if you are hypersensitive or allergic to nicotine, menthol, or to any ingredient in the product.

If you have cardiovascular, peripheral vascular, or bronchospastic diseases including asthma or chronic pulmonary disease, talk to your doctor about using the NICOTROL Inhaler. If you are under a doctor’s care for any condition, you should first discuss with your doctor the potential risks of using this product.

You should stop smoking completely before using the NICOTROL Inhaler. You should not smoke or use other nicotine-containing products while under treatment with the NICOTROL Inhaler.

Because nicotine is addictive, it is possible to become dependent on the NICOTROL Inhaler. It is important to use it only for as long as needed to overcome your smoking habit.

The safety of treatment with the NICOTROL Inhaler for periods longer than 6 months has not been established, and such use is not recommended.

A special note about children and pets: The NICOTROL Inhaler can cause serious illness or be fatal in children and pets— even in very small amounts. If a child chews on or swallows new or used NICOTROL Inhaler cartridges, immediately call a doctor or call your regional poison center.

The specific effects of the NICOTROL Inhaler treatment on fetal development and nursing infants are unknown. Therefore, pregnant and nursing smokers should be encouraged to attempt cessation using educational and behavioral interventions before using pharmacological approaches.

You are likely to experience mild irritation of the mouth or throat, or cough when you first use the NICOTROL Inhaler.

In clinical trials, the frequency of mouth or throat irritation, or coughing declined with continued use. The most common nicotine-related side effect was upset stomach. Other nicotine-related side effects were nausea, diarrhea, and hiccup. Smoking-related side effects included chest discomfort, bronchitis, and high blood pressure.

It is important to tell your doctor about any other medications you may be taking because they may need dosage adjustment.

You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs to the FDA. Visit www.fda.gov/medwatch, or call 1-800-FDA-1088.

Please see Brief Summary of Important Risk Information for NICOTROL Inhaler on the back.

Important Facts About NICOTROL Inhaler

What is the most important information I should know about NICOTROL Inhaler?

Do not use NICOTROL Inhaler if you are hypersensitive or allergic to nicotine or to menthol.

Because you are already addicted to the nicotine in cigarettes, it is possible to stay dependent on the lower dose of nicotine found in the NICOTROL Inhaler.

3. Start in the front. If your child runs out of patience, you’ll have the hardest part out of the way. Ask her to look straight ahead and keep her head level as you work.

5. Go easy on the bangs. From side to side, they shouldn’t extend past the ends of the eyebrows.

6. Check that it’s even. Comb hair straight down and trim any stray strands that stand out.

Ask Marilyn

By Marilyn vos Savant We are three families with two kids each, and we want to carpool to school. Two families have cars that can fit all six kids; one family’s car can carry only four kids. How can we divide driving duties?

—Elizabeth Thompson, Chicago

Here’s one solution. Call the large-car families #1 and #2; the regular-car family is #3.

On day one, family #1 drives all six kids. Day two: Family #3 drives its own kids plus #1’s kids, and family #2 takes its kids alone. Day three: Family #2 drives all six kids. Day four: Family #3 drives its own kids plus #2’s kids, and family #1 takes its kids alone. Then repeat. In all, each family drives half the time. Families #1 and #2 drive two days in a row, followed by two days off.

Family #3 drives on one day, then is off the next.

Winter is here, and an icy, snowy drive on the way home from work is very stressful. I have two choices: a straight shot on a 20-mile city street with traffic lights, and a freeway with no intersections for out-of-control drivers to plow through. Which do you think is safest? —Margaret Sartori, Livonia, Mich.

I vote for the city streets, despite the fender benders.

Freeways involve higher speeds, less lighting, tired drivers, and monster trucks. When accidents happen, they’re worse, and bad road conditions make them more likely.

PARADE’S PLAY-BY-PLAY GUIDE TO THROWING A GREAT COVER PHOTOGRAPH BY CHARLES MASTERS GAME-DAY BASH OPENING ILLUSTRATION BY EDDIE GUY

n just seven days, more than 100 million of us will gather with Buds and brats, foam koozies and foam fingers, to watch Super Bowl XLVI (NBC, 6:30 p.m. ET) in homes across the country. And whether you’re hosting a party (see our tips on these pages) or attending one, the event is sure to be as behemoth a bash as ever.

How the Super Bowl party became such a phenomenon has more possible explanations than Charles Haley has championship rings (he won a record five as a player). Some theorize the game’s midwinter timing plays a big role. “People have gone through the holidays of Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s,” says Robert Thompson, a professor of popular culture at Syracuse University in New York. “By the time the Super Bowl arrives, we’ve broken our resolutions and we’re ready for a party.” Another explanation: the success of the NFL’s halftime show and, as Thompson calls it, “the film festival that Madison Avenue puts on” to make the game an entertainment extravaganza for every viewer, fan or no.

But perhaps there’s a more meaningful reason we come together on this Sunday each year. With so much that divides us politically and culturally, and so much that isolates us technologically, celebrating the Super Bowl has become a joyous communal rite. As Mike Mulvihill, senior vice president of programming and research at Fox Sports, says, “The Super Bowl stands as one of the few things, and maybe the only thing, that brings people together.” So break out the cheese dip and the chicken wings, America. It’s time to come in from the cold. —Hilary Sterne

Chow Down!

What does America eat on Super Bowl Sunday? Fill your buffet with these favorites. By Jane and Michael Stern Anchor Bar’s Buffalo Wings Not so long ago, chicken wings were a throwaway part, fit for soup. But in 1964, Teressa Bellissimo of the Anchor Bar in Buffalo, N.Y., changed all that.

One night, faced with a group of hungry men—friends of her son—she deep-fried wings, tossed them with hot sauce, and served them with celery and bluecheese dressing.

The men devoured them, the dish was added to the menu, and Buffalo restaurants soon created rival versions. The wings went national in the early ’90s, as the Buffalo Bills

1

were making four back-to-back Super Bowl appearances.

On game day, the Anchor Bar will sell, literally, tons of wings. (Two tons!)

Tucson’s Jalapeño Poppers The food trucks of Tucson, Ariz., are famous for their Sonoran hot dogs, garnished with pinto beans, tomatoes, onions, mustard, hot sauce, and mayonnaise. But one side dish is just as stellar: the bacon-wrapped jalapeño poppers.

They became popular in the ’90s as Americans began seeking out spicier cuisine.

2

Amighetti’s Submarine Sandwich There are infinite regional names for the overstuffed sandwich on brawny bread: sub, hero, hoagie, po’ boy, zep ... And infinite variations in dressing them. In the Delaware Valley, it’s oil and vinegar. In New Orleans, Creole mustard is No. 1.

At the original Amighetti’s in St. Louis, you’ll get its “special sauce”— creamy with a kick.

Closed on Sundays, Amighetti’s makes an exception for the Super Bowl. Serve the sauce on the side—spread it right before the coin toss.

Ask the doctor about ARICEPT 23 mg for moderate to severe Alzheimer’s disease. The highest approved dose of ARICEPT. You’ve shared so much with your loved one through the years. While you’re realistic about the nature of Alzheimer’s, as their caregiver, you want to do what you can. If your loved one is taking ARICEPT (donepezil HCl)10 mg, ask the doctor if ARICEPT 23 mg may help.

ARICEPT 23 mg was compared to ARICEPT 10 mg in a large clinical study of patients with moderate to severe Alzheimer’s disease. ARICEPT 23 mg showed improvement over ARICEPT 10 mg on mental function, though it did not show improvement on overall patient functioning. In the study, more people who took ARICEPT 23 mg experienced increased side effects.

It’s important to remember that while ARICEPT may treat the symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease, it is not a cure. All patients with Alzheimer’s disease will get worse over time, even if they take ARICEPT 23 mg.

INDICATION AND DOSING ARICEPT® (donepezil HCl) is a prescription medicine to treat mild, moderate and severe Alzheimer’s disease. Before starting on ARICEPT 23 mg/day, patients should be on ARICEPT 10 mg/day for at least 3 months. The starting dose of ARICEPT is 5 mg/day and can be increased to 10 mg/day after 4–6 weeks. Please take ARICEPT as prescribed by the doctor.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION ARICEPT is not for everyone, including people who are allergic to any ingredients in ARICEPT or medicines that contain piperidines.

Tell the doctor if your loved one takes nonprescription or prescription medicines, including those used to treat Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s disease; anticholinergic medicines, such as allergy or cold medicine; medicines to treat bladder or bowel spasms; or certain asthma medicines.

ARICEPT may cause slow heartbeat and fainting. This happens more often in people with heart problems. Call the doctor right away if the patient faints while taking ARICEPT. People may also have seizures while taking ARICEPT. They may also have difficulty passing urine. Lung problems, including asthma, may worsen with the use of ARICEPT. Tell the doctor that the patient takes ARICEPT before they have any procedure that may require anesthesia, including dental and medical procedures or surgery.

People at risk for stomach ulcers or who take certain other medicines, such as aspirin or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory

drugs (NSAIDs), should tell their doctor because serious stomach problems, such as bleeding, may get worse.

In a study, more side effects were seen with ARICEPT 23 mg than with ARICEPT 10 mg. Many more people taking ARICEPT 23 mg experienced nausea and vomiting than those taking ARICEPT 10 mg. These side effects may get better after the patient takes ARICEPT for a while. Other side effects that were seen more often with ARICEPT 23 mg were stomach ulcers, gastrointestinal bleeding, and weight loss. People of lower weight (less than 121 lbs) may have increased nausea, vomiting, and weight loss when taking ARICEPT 23 mg.

Other side effects of ARICEPT may include diarrhea, difficulty sleeping, vomiting, or muscle cramps. Some people may feel tired or may have loss of appetite.

You are encouraged to report negative side effects to the FDA. Visit fda.gov/medwatch or call 1-800-FDA-1088.

The Blue Willow Inn’s Deviled Eggs These sunny ovals are so treasured in the South—no church supper or holiday party is complete without them—that deviled egg plates are prized family heirlooms. Located in a mansion said to have been the inspiration for Tara in Gone With the Wind, the Blue Willow Inn in Social Circle, Ga., prepares their eggs on the mild side. Postgame treat: Leftovers make heavenly egg salad.

The Fort’s Guacamole The 2012 Bowl will take place at Indianapolis’s Lucas Oil Stadium. If you scooped all the guacamole to be made next Sunday into that venue, it would fill it from end zone to end zone, more than 12 feet deep. No one knows the dip’s exact origins, but the late Sam Arnold of the Fort restaurant near Denver surmised that a cook accidentally dropped avocado into salsa and realized the combo was irresistible. Arnold, a culinary showman who claimed he taught Julia Child how to open a champagne bottle with a tomahawk, was firmly against adding garlic.

Camp Washington’s 5-Way Chili In the U.S., your choice of chili—Beans or beanless?

Thick or thin? Ground meat or chunks?—can be as contentious a topic as your favorite NFL team. Cincinnati residents take pride in their Bengals—and their chili. Created by Greek immigrants, it’s called 5-way for its quintuple layers: spaghetti,

spicy meat sauce, beans, cheese, and onions. The version served at Cincinnati’s Camp Washington Chili has been dubbed “America’s classic.”

Pico’s Nachos As the story goes, in 1943 a group of U.S. Army wives went to a restaurant in Piedras Negras, Mexico, for a meal. Because the larder had dwindled to tortillas and cheese, the frantic maître d’—nicknamed Nacho—heated the tortillas, broke them up, melted cheese on top, and added sliced jalapeño peppers.

His creation was called Nacho’s Especiales. While the dish can be

that simple, you’ll find a hearty rendition at Pico’s Mex-Mex Restaurant in Houston, where it’s crowned with cochinita pibil, or achiote-marinated pork baked in banana leaves.

Tomato Jam’s Pimiento Cheese Pimiento cheese is a utility player—it can be a spread for crackers, a sandwich filling, a burger topping, or a veggie dip.

Its basic components are cheddar, peppers, and mayo. Tomato Jam, a café in Asheville, N.C., uses fireroasted peppers and green olives in theirs. The owner serves it on nachos for his own Super Bowl parties.

Potato Skins from Spudly’s Super Spuds America’s infatuation with potato skins began in the mid-1970s at T.G.I. Friday’s restaurants, which served them with big fruity drinks.

Harry Caray’s Meatballs It’s no surprise that Chicago is a sports-mad city—it boasts teams from all five major pro sports. Harry Caray’s Italian Steakhouse, founded

The Game-Is-As-Important-As-AnOrgan-Transplant Guy This guest is as visible as a ref—he’s the one pacing, screaming, and exhorting the gods to favor his team. STRATEGY: Sadly, there’s little you can do. But take comfort in the fact that his behavior will give attendees something to gossip about on the way home.

The Tireless Talker This partygoer sincerely believes that his or her clever and constant commentary is enhancing the evening, but it’s only enraging the people who care about the game. STRATEGY: Give gabbers a space with their own TV, then watch them face off in another brutal sport: competing for listeners.

The Nacho-Averse Since game-day fare tends to fall into the “heart-attack-on-a-plate” category, you’ll inevitably have guests with more delicate sensibilities and stomachs. STRATEGY: You needn’t offer up a whole healthy buffet, just one of these: a cheese plate with crackers, veggies with dip or hummus, or a fruit salad.

Sky Masterson This guy is on the phone with his bookie nonstop, wagering on the coin toss and number of turnovers and songs sung at halftime—i.e., everything. STRATEGY: Create a $1 betting pool so every guest has a stake in the game. The grid with 100 squares is an easy way to play (find one at Parade.com/superbowl).

WHAT SHOULD I BRING?

FOUR RULES FOR A FOOLPROOF TIME Activities, crafts, and more to keep your party fumble free By Hollace Schmidt

1

Give guests a choice of party zones.

Create two viewing areas, one for those who want to see every play and one for the chatters and snackers. Joe Trippi, a police lieutenant (and a Buffalo Bills supporter) from Great Falls, Va., has a 52-inch flat-screen in his basement for true football fans, and puts a TV in the kitchen for less serious watchers.

2

Provide activities for young partygoers.

Jodi Fagert, a nurse, Pittsburgh Steelers fan, and mother of a 6-year-old, sets up a children’s room at her Oregon home.

She puts out boxes of dress-up clothes and toy swords— plus clear juices that won’t leave stains— and hires a babysitter to supervise.

Crafts can also keep kids busy and happy.

3

Offer extra entertainment to the grown-ups.

Since the game can sometimes be dull, Shelly Everett and Rob Kreimes of Sandusky, Ohio, turned their shindig into the “SOUPer Bowl.” Guests bring pots of soup, and people taste them and vote. And the winner scores— a ladle! Also fun: Super Bowl bingo, where the squares are filled with showtime sights, such as a field goal or a car commercial.

Prepare for the uninvited.

Although Fagert does a pregame headcount, she’s learned to get food and drink for an additional 15 drop-ins. Andrew Schrage of Chicago, a New England Patriots loyalist, buys extra frozen appetizers that he can heat up if his spread is depleted.

The Over-Imbiber The big game evokes big emotions, which can mean lots of drinking. Fans will be mourning the season’s end; their spouses will be relieved (or not) about getting their mates back. STRATEGY: Start the party at 5 p.m., not noon, so there’s less time to indulge. By 9 p.m., cut off the booze and bring out the coffee.

BE YOUR OWN REFEREE Don’t let guests’ unsportsmanlike conduct spoil all the fun.

Here’s how to tackle five tough characters. By Judith Newman

Beer is a safe bet— just be careful not to step out-of-bounds. “Respect regional loyalties,” says Marjorie Ingall, a veteran host in New York City whose husband is from Milwaukee. “Don’t get Packers fans St. Louis beer.” Other ideas: anything that celebrates your friend’s team or the game, like a cake in team colors, helmet-shaped coasters, or a “Football Man Candle,” with a dirt and leather scent (at perpetualkid.com). But one of the best gifts is free: staying to clean up afterward. —J.N.

n retrospect, it’s clear

FAT AND HAPPY

Thanks to my 30-pound bags of birdseed, Floyd has grown to the size of a bear cub.

Next, I posted a photo of the squirrel on Facebook and asked for advice on how to thwart Floyd’s thieving ways.

“You named him?” Sherrod said.

“Don’t you have work to do?”

I replied.

I was seeing more of this squirrel than any of our children. Of course I named him.

You learn a lot about people when you ask them how to get rid of a squirrel. Violence comes up. A lot. When I emailed a birder friend, she suggested I buy a feeder that flings squirrels into the air whenever they touch the perch. She included a link to a demonstration video.

I clicked “play” and watched in horror as one squirrel after another was hurled through the air, each one emitting an animated, high-pitched “whoooaaa.” The voice may have been fake, but by then I was imagining my apologies to Floyd’s widow. I may have been losing perspective.

Three 30-pound bags of birdseed later, Floyd has grown to the size of a bear cub. As a result, his success rate has plummeted.

About 50 percent of the time, he leaps for the pole only to slide to the ground with a thud. Still, he never stops trying, and, by golly, I admire that.

“Do you think I should move the swing over to make it easier for him?” I said last weekend to my husband, who immediately got that look on his face again.

“Ho, ho, ho, kidding,” I said.

“I’m kidding.”

Maybe I am. Maybe I’m not.
