Continuing budget woes mean Bend’s worst streets won’t be getting much attention this year.

In an effort to get the most for its maintenance dollars, the city will work to “keep good roads good” and move away from maintaining the “worst first,” said Bend’s street divisions manager, Hardy Hansen.

If the city decided to tackle street maintenance based on the worst-first theory, Hansen said, it would take four decades to get to them all.

“We are on a 40-year cycle, if we take the streets in order of how bad they are, and in 40 years they just fall apart,” Hansen said. “So if we went that route, the good ones — the streets that are good now — would fall apart.”

Revenues for street maintenance — which come from sources including the general fund, garbage franchise fees and a portion of the state gas tax — have declined for this fiscal year to below 2005-06 levels.

The Sisters Charter Academy of Fine Arts may owe the Sisters School District thousands of dollars after closing two-thirds of the way through its school year.

The closing ended what had been a difficult year for the academy. The School Board voted in January to not extend the school’s charter because of concerns about low attendance, finances and curriculum changes. That vote meant the school would close at year’s end. But, about a week ago, the school was evicted from its building near downtown Sisters after falling $8,100 behind on rent.

School officials had hoped to keep the school open through the end of the year, but announced Tuesday that the academy had no money left.

The arts academy, along with Sisters Early College Academy and Sisters AllPrep Web Academy, are now part of a wider investigation into EdChoices/AllPrep, a Clackamas-based company that runs schools in six Oregon school districts. Both the Oregon Department of Education and the Oregon Department of Justice are investigating the company for questionable finances.

From June through September, the district paid the academy a total of $82,440 based on attendance estimates that were never met.

That means the district overpaid at the start of the year.

Top Vatican officials — including the future Pope Benedict XVI — did not defrock a priest who molested as many as 200 deaf boys, even though several American bishops repeatedly warned that failure to act could embarrass the Benedict XVI church, according to files newly unearthed as part of a lawsuit.

The internal correspondence from bishops in Wisconsin directly to Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, the future pope, shows that while church officials tussled over whether the priest should be dismissed, their highest priority was protecting the church from scandal. The documents emerge as Benedict is facing similar accusations in Europe.

Cole banned laptops in the 2006-07 academic year. He found them an “attractive nuisance.” It was a bold decree: Georgetown had only recently begun requiring that first-year law students own laptops, after painstakingly upgrading the campus for wireless Internet access.

The laptop computer, introduced in 1981, has become nearly obligatory on campus; some colleges require them. They are as essential to today’s student as a working stereo system was to their parents.

Madeline Twomey, 20, a junior at George Washington, has used a computer since age 6 and had her first laptop at 15. She senses a widening generation gap. “Most professors, even at their youngest, they’re in their 30s,” she said. “They don’t understand how much it’s become a part of our lives.”

Professors say they do understand — all too well.

Diane Sieber, an associate professor of humanities at the University of Colorado at Boulder, has debated her students on the collegiate conceit of multitasking, the notion that today’s youths can fully attend to a lecture while intermittently toggling over to e-mail, ESPN and Facebook.

“It’s really serialized interruption,” Sieber said. “You start something, you stop it, you do something else, you stop it, which is something you’re doing if you’re switching back and forth between World of Warcraft and my class.”

One recent semester, Siebert tracked the grades of 17 student laptop addicts. At the end of the term, their average grade was 71 percent, “almost the same as the average for the students who didn’t come at all.”

Sieber believes those students, in turn, divert the attention of the students behind them, a parabolic effect she calls the “cone of distraction.”

Jose Bowen, dean of the Meadows School of the Arts at Southern Methodist University in Texas, is removing computers from lecture halls and urging his colleagues to “teach na-

ked” — without machines. Bowen says class time should be used for engaging discussion, something that reliance on technology discourages.

Resistance Some early attempts to ban laptops met resistance. In 2006, a group of law students at the University of Memphis complained to the American Bar Association, in vain. These days, the restriction is so common that most students take it in stride.

Perhaps no college has experienced the good and bad of laptops like Bentley University in Waltham, Mass. In 1985, Bentley was the first college in the nation to require students to own portable computers. By the late 1990s, professors complained of distracted students. In 2000, the college installed a custom-designed system that allowed professors to switch off Internet and e-mail access in their classrooms. Professors have flipped the switch “thousands of times,” said Phillip Knutel, an executive director who oversees technology at Bentley.

American students are mired at a basic level of reading in fourth and eighth grades, their achievement in recent years largely stagnant, according to a federal report Wednesday that suggests a dwindling academic payoff from the landmark No Child Left Behind law.

The report from the NaOn the tional AssessWeb ment of EducaThe 2009 tional Progress reading showed that report can four th-g rade be found at reading scores www. stalled after nations the law took report effect in 2002, card.gov. rose modestly in 2007, then stalled again in 2009. Eighth-grade scores showed a slight uptick since 2007 — 1 point on a scale of 500 — but no gain over the seven-year span when George W. Bush’s signature school reform program was in high gear.

Only in Kentucky did reading scores rise significantly in both grades from 2007 to 2009.

No Child Left Behind, which Bush signed in 2002, aimed to spur a revolution in reading. The government spent billions of dollars to improve instruction and required schools to monitor student progress every year toward an ambitious goal of eliminating achievement gaps.

Yet an authoritative series of federal tests has found only isolated gains — notably including the District of Columbia’s longtroubled public schools — but no great leaps for the nation.

“We’ve had a real focus on reading, and we’re stuck,” said Susan Pimentel, a member of the National Assessment Governing Board, which oversees the tests. The report, she said, “points to an issue, and we’ve got to as practitioners figure what’s going on. I think students aren’t reading enough. And I think they aren’t reading enough of the good stuff.”

Last fall, the government reported sluggish gains in math in a companion series of federal tests.

Taken together, the reading and math results are likely to be seized on by would-be reformers as evidence that a new approach should be taken. But what that should be remains an open question.

“Today’s results once again show that the achievement of American students isn’t growing fast enough,” Education Secretary Arne Duncan said in a statement.

“The reading scores demonstrate that students aren’t making the progress necessary to compete in the global economy. We shouldn’t be satisfied with these results. By this and many other measures, our students aren’t on a path to graduate high school ready to succeed in college and the workplace.”

President Obama wants to raise standards and give educators more freedom to innovate, without abolishing the premise of No Child Left Behind that students should be tested every year and schools held accountable for failure. Talks are under way in Congress on a rewrite of the law.

David Cole of Georgetown Law has banned laptops for most of his students. A laptop, he argues, “is like putting on every student’s desk … five different magazines, several television shows, some shopping opportunities and a phone.”

The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — On a windy morning in downtown Washington, a hundred Georgetown Law students gathered in a hall for David Cole’s lecture on democracy and coercion.

The desks were cluttered with books, Thermoses and half-eaten muffins.

Another item was noticeable in its absence: laptop computers.

They were packed away under chairs, tucked into backpacks, powered down and forgotten.

Cole has banned laptops from his classes, compelling students to take notes the way their parents did: on paper.

A generation ago, academia embraced the laptop as the most welcome classroom innovation since the ballpoint pen. But during the past decade, it has evolved into a powerful distraction. Wireless Internet connections tempt students away from note-typing to e-mail, blogs, YouTube videos, sports scores, even online gaming — all the diversions of a home computer beamed into the classroom to compete with the professor for the student’s attention.

“This is like putting on every student’s desk, when you walk into class, five different magazines, several television shows, some shopping opportunities and a phone, and saying, ‘Look, if your mind wanders, feel free to pick any of these up and go with it,’” Cole said.

Professors have banned laptops from their classrooms at George Washington University, American University, the College of William and Mary and the University of Virginia, among many others nationwide.

Recently a physics professor at the University of Oklahoma poured liquid nitrogen onto a laptop and then shattered it on the floor, a warning to the digitally distracted. A student — of course — managed to capture the staged theatrics on video and drew more than a million hits on YouTube.

The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — Senate lawmakers moved Wednesday to make school lunches healthier by cutting farm environmental programs, while leaving intact the crop subsidies that many experts say contribute to the high fat and starchy diets behind the obesity epidemic.

The Senate Agriculture Committee approved a $4.5 billion increase for school nutrition over the next decade, with broad bipartisan support.

To pay for the increase, the committee targeted for cuts a farm conservation program called the Environmental Quality Incentives Program that goes to farmers of all crops, many of them small, while leaving untouched the much larger crop subsidies that go to big growers of grain and cotton.

A costly remake of the $17 billion school lunch program, which feeds 32 million children a day, is under way in Congress in tandem with first lady Michelle Obama’s highprofile campaign to end childhood obesity. Obesity has risen dramatically in children, and the cost of treating the conditions linked to overweight have reached nearly $150 billion a year, or 50 percent more than the cost of the health care law.

There is widespread agreement that corn chips with cheese sauce, fried chicken nuggets and other staples of the school lunch menu have to go.

In addition, Mars, Coca Cola and other food manufacturers have agreed with the American Academy of Pediatrics and other public health advocates to embrace national standards that could ban junk foods sold in vending machines.

Environmental advocates contend there is more than enough money available for school nutrition if lawmakers would be willing to trim those payments. Many public health advocates fought a losing battle against the crop subsidies in the 2008 farm bill, arguing that they make corn and corn sweeteners that are the basis of many packaged foods artificially cheap in relation to fruits, vegetables and other more nutritious foods.

WASHINGTON — The U.S. and Russia reached a breakthrough agreement Wednesday for a historic treaty to reduce the nuclear arsenals of the former Cold War rivals, the most significant pact in a generation and an important milestone in the decades-long quest to lower the risk of global nuclear war.

After long and trying negotiations, President Barack Obama and Russian President Dmitry Medvedev are to sign the treaty in

Iran pressed from all sides to take U.N. uranium deal New York Times News Service MOSCOW — Russia disclosed on Wednesday that Russian and Chinese envoys had pressed Iran’s government to accept a U.N. plan on uranium enrichment during meetings in Tehran early this month but that Iran had refused, leaving “less and less room for diplomatic maneuvering.� “The clouds are piling up,� said a top Russian Foreign Ministry official, briefing reporters on condition of anonymity, following diplomatic protocol. He said Russia would consider supporting sanctions tailored to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons, though it “is certainly against any paralyzing sanctions that are aimed not at nonproliferation but at punishing Iran or, God forbid, regime change.�

At the United Nations, Mark Lyall Grant, the British ambassador, confirmed that political directors from the six countries had consulted by telephone on Wednesday and that China had finally “agreed to engage substantively on the issue.�

Li Baodong, the new Chinese ambassador, emphasized that China is committed to the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty. “We think it’s very important to maintain stability and peace in the Middle East,� he told reporters, but he left ambiguous exactly what China is committing to.

The Russian official’s comments came after U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton chided Russia for announcing the start-up of a new nuclear power plant it had built at Bushehr, in Iran, which she said muddied the international effort to press Tehran on weapons development. The remarks suggested that China and Russia — the two holdouts among the six countries that could approve sanctions against Tehran — are themselves feeling the pressure as demands for sanctions mount.

Locking in Russian support for sanctions was a central goal of the Washington’s “reset� with Moscow. But Russia has long resisted measures that would strain its ties with Tehran — a point underscored last week when, during a visit to Moscow by Clinton, Prime Minister Vladimir Putin said that the Bushehr’s first reactor would begin operating this summer.

Saudis: 2 terror cells broken up Bloomberg News DUBAI, United Arab Emirates — Saudi forces detained more than 100 terror suspects, including some who officials say were plotting attacks on energy installations and military sites in the eastern oil-producing hub of the country.

Twelve people in two al-Qaida cells, all of them Saudis except for one Yemeni, were in the early stages of planning strikes, the official Saudi Press Agency announced Wednesday.

two weeks in Prague, once final technical details are worked out, officials in Washington and Moscow said. The accord is expected to cut the number of long-range nuclear weapons held by each side to about 1,500, and it raises hopes for further disarmament.

The deal is seen as sealing an increased level of trust and cooperation between the U.S. and Russia, who possess the vast majority of the world’s nuclear arms and have labored under strained relations in recent years.

Obama and Medvedev are ex-

pected to seal the deal when they talk by telephone this week, setting the stage for a White House campaign to win Senate ratification.

What’s next Senate ratification could take months. However, Robert Norris, a longtime analyst of U.S. and Russian nuclear arsenals, said ratification would not be easy. “Hard negotiations with the Russians will now be followed by hard negotiations with Republican senators to achieve ratifica-

tion,� he said.

Though the State Department said the two countries were still working out unspecified final technical details, spokesman Mark Toner said there had been discussions with the Czech government about holding a signing ceremony in Prague — where Obama last April declared his vision of a nuclear-free world.

In fact, Czech officials announced that Prague would host the signing. They did not give a date, but Russian and U.S. officials said it was expected to be April 8.

WASHINGTON — Anything but jubilant, President Barack Obama awkwardly kept a promise Wednesday he made to ensure passage of historic health care legislation, pledging the administration would not allow federal funds to pay for elective abortions covered by private insurance.

Unlike Tuesday, when a beaming Obama signed the health care law in a nationally televised ceremony interrupted repeatedly by applause, the White House refused to permit coverage of the event. It occurred in the Oval Office in the presence of a small group of anti-abortion Democratic lawmakers who had extracted the commitment over the weekend. The president supports abortion rights.

Meanwhile, the Senate held a relentless series of votes stretching past midnight as Democrats drove toward final passage of a second health care bill. The measure was drafted to supplement the first by sweetening benefits for seniors with high prescription drug costs and for lower-to-middle income families who cannot afford the cost of insurance.

By shortly after midnight, Republicans had offered 22 consecutive amendments, and over the course of nearly seven hours Democrats had rejected every one. It was unclear how much longer the night’s voting would last.

Lacking the votes to stop the bill, Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, vowed, “We’ll continue to fight until this bill is repealed and replaced with commonsense ideas that solve our problems without dismantling the health care system we have and without burying the American dream under a mountain of debt.�

Student loan provision The follow-up bill before the Senate included a second triumph for the administration on domestic policy. It generally strips banks and other private insurers of their ability to originate loans to students, in favor of direct government lending.

The government’s savings would raise the maximum amount needy students could receive in Pell Grants, and pump about $2.6 billion over a decade into historically black and Hispanic colleges.

The changes would mean the loss of billions of dollars for student lending giant Sallie Mae as well as large financial institutions such as Citigroup, JPMorgan Chase and Bank of America.

Taken together, the day’s events amounted to mop-up actions by the White House and Senate Democrats, one day after Obama signed into law far-reaching changes in the nation’s health care system that had eluded presidents and lawmakers for a century.

Up next: overhauling financial regulation Buoyed by its passage, the Obama administration and Democrats in Congress said Wednesday that an overhaul of financial regulations was the next legislative priority.

The legislation appeared to be gaining momentum, as two crucial Republicans on the Senate

Related • Local activists condemn harassment, Page C1 Banking Committee, Judd Gregg of New Hampshire and Bob Corker of Tennessee, said they expected the overhaul to pass this year

even though they had concerns about some provisions.

A Democratic strategy appeared to be emerging: expressing confidence that the measure would pass and urging Republicans to help shape legislation that they could support, rather than trying to block it. “When we come back from recess, the No.1 issue for the U.S. Congress will be this bill in the United States Senate,� Rep. Barney Frank, D-Mass., the chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, said after meeting at the White House with President Barack Obama.

The House voted along party lines in December to approve a regulatory overhaul similar to one proposed by the White House last summer.

Described as the most sweeping change in financial rules since the Depression, the legislation would create a council to detect and avert serious risks to the financial system.

Tennessee Tea Party protesters gather Wednesday at the attorney general’s office in Nashville to urge him to file a lawsuit against over the health care overhaul. Lawsuits by 14 other states seeking to scuttle the legislation signed Tuesday by President Barack Obama are given little chance of success by legal scholars in the face of the broad powers granted Congress by the Constitution. Led by Florida, the states charge that the law illegally places a fiscal burden on their cash-strapped budgets with an expansion of state-run Medicaid and illegally requires an individual mandate.

COCC Continued from A1 In 2008, the college had already begun preliminary planning for a health and science facility before failing to pass a similar $43.75 million bond. Vice President for Administration Matt McCoy said the college will still be able to use most of those plans.

“It was preliminary programming and some design work before the bond campaign was successful,” McCoy said. “We didn’t want to delay so we couldn’t open for the fall (2012) term.”

McCoy said the concept of a single health and sciences building was too large and overwhelming on the campus.

Now, the college will start with the health careers facility and then get under way with a sciences building. The buildings will likely be close together, although the location of the sciences building is not yet certain.

“It just felt like it needed to be two separate buildings in the same vicinity, and so it evolved into these two,” said Director of Campus Services Gene Zinkgraf.

“Combined, they come in at a smaller square footage (than the original large building).”

The sciences building is now being designed and is expected to open in fall 2012.

Other campuses Redmond’s technology education center is also in early planning stages. Right now, the college is figuring out what programs that building should contain.

McCoy said preliminary possibilities include an aviation mechanic and maintenance program, labs for CAD and visual graphic arts, and possibly a sustainable resource management program. McCoy described that program as looking at sustainable practices and teaching technical skills for installing and maintaining solar, thermal, wind and biomass technologies.

Farther afield, the college is also preparing to get its education centers off the ground.

The Madras education center will be a 8,500-square-foot building on 15 donated acres from The Bean Foundation across from Jefferson County Middle School.

The college had hoped to receive a grant that would allow the building’s size to double, but College Relations Director Ron Paradis said COCC found out recently it had not received the grant. He noted, however, that The Bean Foundation has set aside a total of 45 acres for the education center.

“It would give us a greater opportunity to partner with and provide greater services to the Jefferson County communities,” McCoy said.

The college hopes to have the building open and operational in fall 2011.

In Prineville, COCC plans to collaborate with the Oregon State University Extension Service, Oregon Open Campus and the Crook County Fairgrounds.

“There are a number of benefits that come to the community and the education providers by co-locating (the programs),” McCoy said. “It provides an economy of scale.”

If the groups are able to work together, the groups will likely share a reception area and classrooms.

And it will be a sort of one-stop shop for people in Crook County to access educational services.

That facility is expected to open in spring 2012.

While bond projects are still mostly in the planning phase, the new building for the college’s culinary program is nearly under way. The culinary building is being paid for primarily through fundraising; the college will not use any 2009 bond dollars to fund the building.

On Feb. 24, the college sent to the city its site application for the culinary facility. Zinkgraf said COCC is still awaiting the approval of that application, then will finalize planning and construction documents and bid the project.

The culinary building is slated to open a year from now in spring of 2011.

Near its end, CIA tape inquiry centers on false statements

By Carrie Johnson and Julie Tate The Washington Post

An investigation into the destruction of CIA videotapes that depicted harsh interrogations of terrorism suspects appears to be nearing a close, ending a long inquiry in which authorities have encountered a series of roadblocks in building a case.

Prosecutors are now examining

the sworn testimony of an agency official to assess whether false statements charges can be made, according to two sources.

Assistant U.S. Attorney John Durham, who is leading the investigation, recently bestowed immunity from prosecution on a CIA lawyer who reviewed the tapes years before they were destroyed to determine whether they di-

verged from written records about the interrogations, the sources said. That could signal that the case is reaching its final stages.

The agency lawyer, John McPherson, could appear before a grand jury later this month or in April, according to the sources, who spoke anonymously because the investigation continues. CIA lawyers have been

essential to understanding the episode because they offered advice to agency personnel about the handling of the tapes and whether they should have been included when agency records were turned over in other court cases. McPherson is not believed to be under criminal jeopardy but he had previously hesitated to testify, the sources said.

The decision to open a criminal inquiry into the interrogations — after two teams of Bush administration prosecutors decided against launching a probe — ignited fierce criticism, including a letter to President Barack Obama from seven former CIA directors from Democratic and Republican administrations asking him to reverse course last year.

Vatican Continued from A1 Those accusations indicate he and direct subordinates often did not alert civilian authorities or discipline priests involved in sexual abuse when he served as an archbishop in Germany and as the Vatican’s chief doctrinal enforcer.

The Wisconsin case involved an American priest, the Rev. Lawrence Murphy, who worked at a renowned school for deaf children

from 1950 to 1974. But it is only one of thousands of cases forwarded over decades by bishops to the Vatican’s Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, an office led from 1981 to 2005 by Ratzinger. It is still the office that decides whether accused priests should be given full canonical trials and defrocked.

In 1996, Ratzinger failed to respond to two letters about the case from Rembert Weakland, Milwaukee’s archbishop at the time.

After eight months, the second in command at the doctrinal office,

Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, now the Vatican’s secretary of state, instructed the Wisconsin bishops to begin a secret canonical trial that could lead to Murphy’s dismissal.

But Bertone halted the process after Murphy personally wrote to Ratzinger protesting that he should not be put on trial because he had already repented and was in poor health.

“I simply want to live out the time that I have left in the dignity of my priesthood,” Murphy wrote near the end of his life to Ratzing-

er. “I ask your kind assistance in this matter.” The files contain no response from Ratzinger.

The New York Times obtained the documents, which the church fought to keep secret, from Jeff Anderson and Mike Finnegan, the lawyers for five men who have brought four lawsuits against the Archdiocese of Milwaukee. The documents include letters between bishops and the Vatican, victims’ affidavits, the handwritten notes of an expert on sexual disorders who interviewed Mur-

THE BULLETIN • Thursday, March 25, 2010 A5 phy and minutes of a final meeting on the case at the Vatican.

Murphy not only was never tried or disciplined by the church’s own justice system, but also got a pass from the police and prosecutors who ignored reports from his victims, according to the documents and interviews with victims. Three successive archbishops in Wisconsin were told that Murphy was sexually abusing children, the documents show, but never reported it to criminal or civil authorities.

Murphy was quietly moved by

Milwaukee Archbishop William Cousins to northern Wisconsin in 1974, where he spent his last 24 years working freely with children in parishes, schools and, as one lawsuit charges, a juvenile detention center. He died in 1998, still a priest.

Vatican secrecy, and its fallout The fallout from the sexual abuse scandal in the church settled across Europe on Wednesday, as prosecutors said they were weighing criminal charges against a priest suspected of molesting children in Germany, and Benedict accepted the resignation of a bishop accused of mishandling allegations of abuse in Ireland.

Bishop John Magee issued a statement of apology. In December 2008, an investigation by a church panel found that Magee had failed to respond to accusations of abuse and that policies to protect children were lacking, setting off calls for his resignation.

Magee’s was the first resignation the pope accepted since issuing a long-awaited letter to Irish Catholics last weekend apologizing to victims of sexual abuse and expressing “shame and remorse.”

Even as the pope himself in that letter has emphasized the need to cooperate with civil justice in abuse cases, the correspondence seems to indicate that the Vatican’s insistence on secrecy has often impeded such cooperation. At the same time, the officials’ reluctance to defrock a sex abuser shows that on a doctrinal level, the Vatican has tended to view the matter in terms of sin and repentance more than crime and punishment.

The Vatican spokesman, the Rev. Federico Lombardi, was shown the documents and asked to respond to questions about the case. He provided a statement saying that Murphy had certainly violated “particularly vulnerable” children and the law, and that it was a “tragic case.” But he pointed out that the Vatican was not forwarded the case until 1996, years after civil authorities had investigated the case and dropped it.

Lombardi emphasized that neither the Code of Canon Law nor the Vatican norms issued in 1962, which instruct bishops to conduct canonical investigations and trials in secret, prohibited church officials from reporting child abuse to civil authorities. He did not address why that had never happened in this case.

As to why Murphy was never defrocked, he said that “the Code of Canon Law does not envision automatic penalties.” He said that Murphy’s poor health and the lack of more recent accusations against him were factors in the decision.

Vatican inaction The Vatican’s inaction is not unusual. Only 20 percent of the 3,000 accused priests whose cases went to the church’s doctrinal office between 2001 and 2010 were given full church trials, and only some of those were defrocked, according to a recent interview in an Italian newspaper with Monsignor Charles Scicluna, the chief internal prosecutor at that office.

An additional 10 percent were defrocked immediately. Ten percent left voluntarily. But a majority — 60 percent — faced other “administrative and disciplinary provisions,” Scicluna said, like being prohibited from celebrating Mass.

To many, Murphy appeared to be a saint: a hearing man gifted at communicating in American Sign Language and an effective fundraiser for deaf causes. A priest of the Milwaukee Archdiocese, he started as a teacher at St. John’s School for the Deaf, in St. Francis, in 1950. He was promoted to run the school in 1960 even though students had disclosed to church officials in the 1950s that he was a predator.

It was not until 1996 that Weakland tried to have Murphy defrocked. The reason, he wrote to Ratzinger, was to defuse the anger among the deaf and restore their trust in the church. With no response from Ratzinger, Weakland wrote a different Vatican office in March 1997 saying the matter was urgent because a lawyer was preparing to sue, the case could become public and “true scandal in the future seems very possible.”

Recently some bishops have argued that the 1962 norms dictating secret disciplinary procedures have long fallen out of use. But it is clear from these documents that in 1997, they were still in force.

Murphy died four months later at age 72 and was buried in his priestly vestments. Weakland wrote a last letter to Bertone explaining his regret that Murphy’s family had disobeyed the archbishop’s instructions that the funeral be small and private, and the coffin kept closed.

“In spite of these difficulties,” Weakland wrote, “we are still hoping we can avoid undue publicity that would be negative toward the church.”

Social Security will begin New human ancestor? Scientists slide to insolvency in 2010 ponder one small bone in Siberia

By Mary Williams Walsh New York Times News Service

The bursting of the real estate bubble and the ensuing recession have hammered jobs, home prices and now Social Security. This year, the system will pay out more in benefits than it receives in payroll taxes, an important threshold it was not expected to cross until at least 2016, according to the Congressional Budget Office.

Stephen Goss, chief actuary of the Social Security Administration, said that while the CBO projection would probably be borne out, the change would have no effect on benefits in 2010 and retirees would keep receiving their checks as usual.

The problem, he said, is that payments have risen more than expected during the downturn, because jobs disappeared and people applied for benefits sooner than they had planned. At the same time, the program’s revenues have fallen sharply, because millions of jobs have disappeared, leaving fewer paychecks to tax.

Analysts have long tried to predict the year when Social Security would pay out more than it took in because they view it as a tipping point — the first step of a long, slow march to insolvency, unless Congress strengthens the program’s finances.

The Social Security Administration is expected to issue in a few weeks its own numbers for the current year within the annual report from its board of trustees.

The administration has six board members: three from the president’s Cabinet, two representatives of the public and the Social Security commissioner. Though Social Security uses slightly different methods, the official numbers are expected to roughly track the CBO projections, which were one page of a voluminous analysis of the federal budget proposed by President Barack Obama in January.

Goss said Social Security’s annual report last year projected revenues would exceed payouts until at least 2016 because economists expected a quicker, stron-

ger recovery. Officials foresaw an average unemployment rate of 8.2 percent in 2009 and 8.8 percent this year, though unemployment is hovering at nearly 10 percent.

Goss emphasized that even the $29 billion shortfall projected for this year was small, relative to the roughly $700 billion that would flow in and out of the system. The system, he added, has a balance of about $2.5 trillion that will take decades to deplete. Goss said that large cushion could start to grow again if the economy recovers fast.

Indeed, the Congressional Budget Office’s projection shows the ravages of the recession easing in the next few years, with small surpluses reappearing briefly in 2014 and 2015.

After that, demographic forces are expected to overtake the fund, as more and more baby boomers leave the work force, stop paying into the program and start collecting their benefits. At that point, outlays will exceed revenues every year, no matter how well the economy performs.

“The thing to remember is that if we look at all our streets, about a quarter of them are in very poor condition, which is scary.”

— Hardy Hansen, Bend’s street divisions manager

City streets Continued from A1 The money, called the street operations fund, pays for street maintenance, plowing in winter, street sweeping and even the bill to keep the streetlights on, which itself has run about $400,000 annually, said City Finance Director Sonia Andrews. For the 2009-10 fiscal year, the total budget for the fund is $7.8 million, which includes a $1.45 million cushion for emergencies or unexpected projects.

Despite a recent boost of $1.23 million in federal stimulus money and added revenues from a state transportation bill passed last year, Andrews and other city officials say they still cannot keep up with street maintenance because of rapid growth and the increasing cost of materials like asphalt.

“That’s why Sisters and Madras went out for a local gas tax; their revenues weren’t going to be enough,” Andrews said.

Bend is prohibited from seeking a gas tax for the next four years under a 2009 state law that, starting in 2011, will bring in an estimated $1.6 million annually for street maintenance, City Manager Eric King said.

While that will help, the rapid growth that has brought with it more streets is a constant maintenance challenge, King said.

Many of those streets are in residential areas, which will now rank low on the list for repairs, Hansen said.

“Because they only carry a few hundred cars per day and the arterials and collectors carry thousands of cars per day, the focus with the few dollars we do have left is very little on residential,” Hansen said.

He said that, in 1994, the city was able to repair about 16 percent of the streets annually and get to each street about every eight years. In 2008, the city repaired slightly more than 4 percent of the streets.

And the passage of time and

Charter Continued from A1 It has since been withholding payments, effectively waiting for the academy’s enrollment to catch up. But the academy completed two-thirds of its school year and so owes a portion of its funding to the school district.

In Oregon, charter schools are sponsored by school districts, which pass state funding through to the charters. In this case, the district paid the academy at the school year’s start after the academy projected it would have 50 students. But the academy never reached half that projection, topping out at about 20 students.

Because of that overestimate, the district has not given the academy money since September.

“We’re definitely upside-down with them,” school board Chairwoman Christine Jones said.

But Principal Teresa Schneiderman said the academy is entirely out of money and she is unsure how it can repay whatever debt it owes the district.

Still, the district will attempt to recoup some of the money, ac-

installation of more streets means more have fallen into disrepair.

“Concisely, I guess the thing to remember is that if we look at all our streets, about a quarter of them are in very poor condition, which is scary,” Hansen said.

The city has a 100-point rating system for its streets and any street that falls below 50 is considered very poor. The streets on that list will now receive only minimal repairs.

“So the streets we can fix we’ll continue to chip seal and the ones that are marginal we’ll do overlays, and the ones that are really deficient, that are structurally deficient, we’ll do nothing more than pothole patch,” Hansen said.

Once those streets can no longer be maintained by patching, they’ll move into a different category, making them eligible for reconstruction dollars, Andrews said.

“Some of the streets, when the condition has become so bad it’s not just a resurface or an overlay,

cording to Jones. District staff is currently working to figure out how much the academy owes, Jones said.

Sisters Early College Academy has also apparently hit financial difficulties recently. Last week, the Education Department sent a letter to several Oregon school districts stating that EdChoices/AllPrep had failed to pay their students’ tuition at community colleges, including Central Oregon Community College. Charter schools are given specific state funding to pay tuition when their students attend a community college.

About 30 students attend the early college charter, and much of their tuition went unpaid until the school recently paid some of it, said Schneiderman, who is principal of all three Sisters charters. The school still has to pay back tuition for 14 students who attended various community colleges around the state, totalling around $10,000, according to Schneiderman.

Staff at the EdChoices/AllPrep charter schools across the state, which all have separate bank accounts, have made paying the college tuition a priority, Schneiderman said.

it is not part of the street maintenance budget anymore because it is like new construction,” Andrews said.

Those projects are paid for by the city’s transportation construction fund, which gets revenues from water and sewer franchise fees as well as system development charges — fees charged to developers and builders to help pay for infrastructure.

A projected $21 million shortfall in the city’s budget over the next six years has meant the street maintenance budget, despite increasing costs, has been relatively flat, Hansen said.

“The money may be somewhat static but the costs go up,” Hansen said. “And I’m not doing my job if I pretend I can fix it, because I can’t. So we have to be realistic and realize I can only fix what I can fix.”

Cindy Powers can be reached at 541-617-7812 or at cpowers@bendbulletin.com.

“The colleges are going to be paid,” Schneiderman promised, though she did not know when that would happen.

Sisters School District will not be responsible for the tuition even if EdChoices/AllPrep fails to pay its community college debt, according to Oregon Department of Education spokesman Morgan Allen.

The schools’ financial instability is a major reason the school board cut ties with the three charters this year, according to board member Glen Lasken. Board members have worried about the schools collapsing financially that would leave Sisters schools holding the bill for money the district had paid until the state money arrived, according to Lasken.

The board has made several unsuccessful attempts to get a full accounting of the school finances, Lasken said.

“That’s why we pulled the plug as quickly as we did,” Lasken said.

“We couldn’t get accurate information. Certainly, it scared us.”

A previously unknown kind of human group vanished from the world so completely that it has left behind the merest wisp of evidence that it ever existed — a single bone from the little finger of a child, buried in a cave in the Altai mountains of southern Siberia.

Researchers extracted DNA from the bone and reported Wednesday that it differed conspicuously from that of both modern humans and of Neanderthals, the archaic human species that inhabited Europe until the arrival of modern humans on the Continent some 44,000 years ago.

The child who carried the DNA lineage was probably 5 to 7 years old; it is not yet known if it was a boy or a girl. The finger bone was excavated by Russian archaeologists in 2008 from a place known as the Denisova cave.

The researchers, led by Johannes Krause and Svante Paabo of the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, Germany, are careful not to call the Denisova child a new human species, though it may prove to be so, because the evidence is preliminary.

But they say the genetic material extracted from the bone, an element called mitochondrial DNA, belonged to a distinct human lineage that migrated out of Africa at a different time from the two known archaic human species. Homo erectus, found in East Asia, left Africa two million years ago, and the ancestor of Neanderthals emigrated some 500,000 years ago. The number of differences found in the child’s DNA indicate that its ancestors left Africa about 1 million years ago, the researchers say. Their report is published online in the journal Nature.

Paabo, a pioneer in decoding ancient human DNA, said at a news conference that before asserting that the Denisova child was a new species, he needed to rule out the possibility that it belonged to a population formed by interbreeding between the new lineage and a known spe-

Nature via The Associated Press

A view from a rock above Denisova cave to the excavation field camp in the Altai Mountains of southern Siberia. In the latest use of DNA to investigate the story of humankind, scientists have decoded genetic material from an unidentified human ancestor that lived in Siberia and concluded it might be a new member of the human family tree. The DNA doesn’t match modern humans or Neanderthals, two species that lived in that area around the same time — 30,000 to 50,000 years ago. cies. He said he was analyzing the rest of the child’s DNA, from the main or nuclear genome, to test this possibility.

“Back at the time this lineage came out of Africa, it had to have been a distinct group, perhaps a distinct species,” he said. “But whether or not this individual was a distinct species, we have to wait for the nuclear DNA.” The finger bone was found in a layer laid down on the cave floor between 48,000 and 30,000 years ago, according to radiocarbon dating. At that time, toward the end of the Pleistocene Ice Age, which ended 10,000 years ago, the climate was probably much colder.

The artifacts found in the cave in the same layer as the finger bone include ornaments and a bracelet that are typical of modern human sites from the Upper Paleolithic age in Europe. These are puzzling artifacts to be found with a nonmodern human species. But bones can move up and down in archaeological sites, and it is hard to know if the finger bone is truly associated with these artifacts, Krause said, even though there is little sign of mix-

ing in the cave’s layers.

The valley beneath the Denisova cave 30,000 years ago would have been mostly a steppe, or treeless grassland, according to pollen analysis, and it was roamed by ice-age species like the woolly mammoth and woolly rhino, Krause said.

The region was inhabited by both Neanderthals and modern humans at that time. Counting the new human lineage, three human species may have lived together in proximity. “So the picture of the humans around in the late Pleistocene gets a lot more complex and a lot more interesting,” Paabo said.

Durable goods orders rise in February WASHINGTON — Orders for long-lasting goods rose in February for a third month, while inventories and backlogs climbed by the most in more than a year, indicating the manufacturing rebound will keep propelling the recovery.

The 0.5 percent increase in bookings for durable goods was in line with the median forecast of economists surveyed by Bloomberg News and followed a 3.9 percent gain the prior month, the Commerce Department said Wednesday in Washington.

Excluding transportation equipment, orders advanced 0.9 percent, more than anticipated.

Watchdog: Program may extend crisis WASHINGTON — The Obama administration’s main foreclosure-prevention program risks helping few borrowers and may do more harm than good by “merely spreading out the foreclosure crisis” over several years, federal investigators said.

“A year into the program, although more than a million trial modifications have been initiated, the number of permanent modifications thus far, 168,708, has been, even according to Treasury, ‘disappointing,’” according to a report by a government watchdog obtained by Bloomberg News. “The program will not be a long-term success if large amounts of borrowers simply re-default and end up facing foreclosure anyway.”

PERSONAL FINANCE

By Ron Lieber New York Times News Service

Last week, the Federal Reserve reaffirmed its intention to stop buying mortgage-backed securities, signaling the likelihood that the mortgage rates you can get today are as good as they’re going to be for a long while. Once the Fed stops buying, after all, rates are likely to go up.

And current rates are quite good. At about 5 percent, in fact, they’re so good that they’ve helped change the age-old debate over whether homeowners should make extra mortgage payments to pay off their debt well before their loan periods are up.

Back when rates ran at 7 or 8 percent, making extra payments offered what amounted to a guaranteed return on your money.

When you’re ridding yourself of debt that costs you much less, however, it’s easier to imagine a future when you could more easily earn a higher return by investing those potential extra mortgage payments someplace else.

Meanwhile, at a time when just about everyone knows someone who is unemployed or who owes more on a home loan than the house is worth, keeping extra cash someplace more liquid than a mortgage seems like a safer approach.

So is the case against extra payments closed for good, given that so many people have locked in rock-bottom mortgage rates for the long haul?

The answer depends on two things: how likely you are to leave the extra money in savings and how good it would feel to wipe your debt out years earlier than your mortgage requires.

The basics

First, let’s dispense with the standard boilerplate. Don’t even think about making extra mortgage payments unless you’ve paid off higher-interest debt. Credit card debt is the easiest win here.

BofA plans to forgive mortgage debt on a limited basis New York Times News Service

With such low rates, the answer isn’t as simple as it once was

WASHINGTON — Sales of new homes unexpectedly fell in February to a record low as blizzards, unemployment and foreclosures depressed the market.

Purchases decreased 2.2 percent to an annual pace of 308,000, figures from the Commerce Department showed Wednesday. The median sales price climbed by the most in more than two years.

Bank of America said on Wednesday that it would begin forgiving some mortgage debt in an effort to keep distressed borrowers from losing their homes.

The program, limited in scope and available by invitation only, signals a significant shift in efforts to deal with the millions of homeowners who are facing foreclosure. It comes as banks are being urged by the White House, members of Congress and community groups to do more to stem the tide.

Bank of America’s program may increase the pressure on other big banks to offer more help for distressed borrowers, while potentially angering other homeowners who have kept up their payments and are not getting such help.

As the housing market shows signs of possibly entering another downturn, worries about foreclosure are growing. With the volume of sales dropping, prices are starting to slide again. When the gap increases between the size of a mortgage and the value that the home could fetch from a buyer, owners tend to give up.

Cutting the size of the debt over a period of years, however, might encourage people to stick around. That could save homes from foreclosure and stabilize neighborhoods.

“Banks are willing to take some losses now to avoid much greater losses later if the housing market continues to spiral, and that’s a sea change from where they were a year ago,” said Howard Glaser, a housing consultant in Washington and former government regulator.

The threat of a stick may be helping banks to realize that principal writedowns are in their ultimate self-interest. The Bank of America program was announced simultaneously with the news that the lender had reached a settlement with the state of Massachusetts over claims of predatory lending.

Epic Air to be sold at auction

By Tim Doran The Bulletin

An auction scheduled for Friday will apparently determine who will own Bend-based kit airplane maker Epic Air, according to documents filed in U.S. Bankruptcy Court.

Wednesday marked the deadline to express an interest in buying Epic, and Bankruptcy Trustee Kenneth Eiler filed a notice that qualified bids were received.

However, neither the number of bidders nor their identities was disclosed, and Eiler and two attorneys representing him did not return telephone calls or e-mailed requests seeking clarification. Attorneys representing Epic also could not be reached.

Friday’s auction is scheduled to be held in the Portland offices of Ball Janik LLP, not in bankruptcy court, and only qualified bidders and “certain other parties specifically authorized to attend by prior order of the court” will be allowed to attend, according to notices filed with the court. A court hearing has been scheduled on Tuesday for final approval of the sale.

Mortgage Continued from B1 Also, if you’re not saving enough to get the full match from your employer in a 401(k) or similar account, increase your savings there first. And don’t make extra mortgage payments if you don’t already have a decent emergency fund set aside.

$7,500 (35 percent of $20,000) less in taxes than you would have without the deduction. So ultimately, you’re not really paying $20,000 in interest at all; your net cost is $12,500 after you subtract the $7,500 tax savings.

And that makes your effective, after-tax interest rate on your loan just 3.25 percent, which is simply 35 percent (your tax rate) less than the original 5 percent.

Your real interest rate

Better returns?

Now, take a look at the interest rate on your mortgage. That 5 percent? It’s not your real rate if you get some of the interest back each year in the form of a tax deduction.

Let’s say you have a household income of $175,000 and are paying 35 percent of that in total to the state and federal tax collectors. If you pay $20,000 in mortgage interest each year on a loan that charges 5 percent, the deduction effectively brings your taxable income down to $155,000.

As a result, you’re paying

So any money you set aside in lieu of making extra mortgage payments would need to earn more than 3.25 percent annually.

That seems like a reasonable possibility in the future.

In fact, you could have done that well during the supposedly lost decade we just finished. Vanguard Wellington, for instance, a popular low-cost mutual fund that holds about 65 percent stocks and 35 percent bonds and other short-term securities, earned an average annual return of 6.15 percent in the 10 years ended Dec. 31, 2009.

Storing the savings

THE BULLETIN • Thursday, March 25, 2010 B3

to flee to an Asian beach for a few weeks of playtime. If the money is not locked up in retirement or college savings, however, you may be tempted to spend it.

Wouldn’t taxes eat into the returns from the money you’d save instead of making extra mortgage payments? Not if you place it into an account shielded from taxes. A Roth individual retirement account would fit the bill here, as would a 529 college savings account or health savings account.

Bruce Primeau, whose note to his financial planning clients at Wide Financial Group in Minneapolis on this topic inspired me to re-examine it, adds that this isn’t simply about keeping more assets under his watch so he can earn a better living. “I’m not telling them that the money has to come to me,” he said. “A 401(k) match beats the return on paying a mortgage off automatically. There’s real estate and buying employer stock through a purchase plan at a 15 percent discount and all kinds of things.”

Then you need to preserve those savings. When extra money goes toward a mortgage, it’s hard to get at it when the urge strikes

The liquidity problem Capital gains taxes might eventually come due with some of these investments, and the rate could well rise above the current 15 percent long-term rate before too long. Still, having some of your savings in a taxable account makes sense for several reasons.

If you hit a stretch of longterm unemployment after having plowed most of your extra cash into paying down your mortgage, your bank probably won’t pat you on the back for being a good saver and give the money back to you.

Nor is it likely to let you borrow it through a home equity loan if you have no income with which to repay it.

Elaine Scoggins, who had the mortgage department chief reporting to her at a bank before she became a financial planner, suggests imagining a situation

Reason and emotion So the reasoned case for making no extra payments is very strong. But there’s one counterpoint that almost always carries the day, even when there’s only a mild risk with the financial strategy of putting extra money elsewhere.

And it’s this: I need to be able to sleep at night.

Even Primeau concedes here.

“Emotionally, you’re right, and financially, I’m right, and emotionally, you win,” he said. “If emotionally, people want to pay down

where you need to move quickly but can’t sell your home or extract equity to use as a down payment in your new town. Given that possibility, why create more home equity through extra mortgage payments than you have to?

“The whole housing debacle has reminded us all, including me, that real estate is not liquid,” said Scoggins, who is the client experience director for Merriman, a planning firm in Seattle. “And it takes cash to support it.”

2007 Announces first 30 kilowatt commercial inverter

Advanced Energy.

Most of $40 million to $50 million Advanced Energy expects to earn from buying PV Powered is projected to come from commercial market sales — about $30 million to $35 million — with the remainder coming from the residential market.

Advanced Energy has had a tough go during the past couple of years. The semiconductor market — on which about 41 percent of the company’s 2009 revenues were based — began to take a slide during 2008, Firestone said. Advanced Energy was in the red for the whole of 2009, he said.

But the company expects to the first quarter of 2010 to be profitable, Firestone said. He said the addition of PV Powered was an offensive move, an effort to give Advanced Energy a more complete portfolio because the inverter market would be a “strong growth engine for the company.”

Both PV Powered and Ad-

Continued from B1 Advanced Energy, which was founded in 1981, is an energy generator like PV Powered, but its focus is in converting AC power to DC or RF power to be used in automated systems, such as production lines, said Lawrence Firestone, the chief financial officer of Advanced Energy.

In 2007, however, Advanced Energy began building its own line of solar inverters, which convert energy saved from sunlight (DC power) to energy that can be sold on the grid (AC power).

For 2009, energy generation from solar power — PV Powered’s focus — made up about 16 percent of Advanced Energy’s total revenues. Advanced Energy, a publicly held company with more than 1,300 employees in six countries, earned $186.4 million during 2009.

PV Powered earned $21 million during 2009, according to

2008 Announces 1,000 watt, 2,000 watt and 3,000 watt residential inverters; presidential candidate Barack Obama visits

2009 Relocates to Brinson Boulevard facility with about 40 employees; large investment by Evans Renewable Holding II, making it majority shareholder

vanced Energy officials said the merger fits well with the companies’ current production. PV Powered’s recent expansion improved its production capacity to 500 megawatts a year, twice as much as Advanced Energy’s 250 megawatt capacity.

PV Powered currently builds commercial solar inverters that max out at 260 kilowatts. Advanced Energy’s smallest inverter starts at 250 kilowatts, Firestone said.

That doesn’t mean that Advanced Energy plans to stunt further development by PV Powered, Firestone said. There are still plans for PV Powered to release a 500 kilowatt inverter at the end of 2010.

“We bought this company as a growth company,” Firestone said. “We want them to achieve all the plans they have on the table. Their strength is going to be continued growth.”

PV Powered will operate on a stand-alone basis until Dec. 31, with a new board of directors,

2010 Sold to Advanced Energy Industries Inc. for up to $90 million

which includes Mark Fleischauer, the vice president of JH Kelly.

In 2011, old shareholders, like Evans Renewable Holding, represented by Fleischauer, will no longer be involved.

Patterson, the PV Powered CEO, said there are no plans to restructure his company. Firestone, of Advanced Energy, said any kind of examination of the way the businesses work together won’t take place until 2011.

With the merger, Patterson said he expects increased growth and sales of PV Powered, which has doubled its employee count during the last nine months. He said he expects there will be more than 100 employees working for the company by the end of 2010.

“I think you’ll just see accelerating growth,” Patterson said. “It is truly a match made in heaven.”

Continued from B1 Officially known as Aircraft Investor Resources, Epic moved into a new $4.5 million plant on the east side of the Bend Municipal Airport in 2004 with promises to create 400 jobs. About $1.3 million of the money came from state and local economic development funds.

It became the second airplane maker at the Bend airport. The other, known later as Columbia Aircraft Manufacturing Corp., filed bankruptcy in September 2007. Cessna bought Columbia in 2007, but shut down the plant last year.

Aircraft Investor Resources and its related companies filed for bankruptcy in September in the wake of a breach of contract lawsuit filed against it.

While the bankruptcy case was pending, Harlow Aerostructures LLC, of Wichita, Kan., offered to buy Epic, and the offer sparked the auction process.

If no other bidders had stepped forward before Wednesday’s deadline, the purchase would have gone ahead, according to court records.

Harlow makes components,

their debt, then that’s what I help them to do.”

Many people who are years into their mortgages — and perhaps paying less in interest and getting less of a tax break as a result — tend to develop stronger feelings about making extra payments. Those feelings are often even more acute as retirement approaches and homeowners become determined to quit work with no debt to their names.

Those who do retire their debt rarely regret it or wring their hands over the big gains they might have scored by investing the money elsewhere. Tim Maurer, a financial planner and coauthor of “The Financial Crossroads,” describes the feeling that washes over people who have paid their last mortgage bill as “beholden to no one.”

So he doesn’t feel as if it’s his business to separate people from their emotions if they feel strongly about working toward a debt-free existence. “The whole point of planning is to make life better,” he said. “It’s not to have more dollars at the end of the day.”

such as bulkheads and other parts, for the aircraft industry, according to Wichita city documents, and offered to buy Epic for $2 million, which represents about 10 percent of Epic’s total value, according to bankruptcy filings.

In exchange, it would have received all of Epic’s assets, including plane designs, machinery, furniture and other equipment in the plant on Nelson Road, where it helped customers build the planes. Partially completed airplanes remaining in the factory would not have been included in the sale.

Under the agreement, Harlow would have had no obligation to honor the lease for the Nelson Road plant, where Epic employed about 160 people in 2008, and the trustee gave an approaching April 8 deadline by which he must decide whether to reject or continue the leases as a reason for the auction.

Several of Epic’s creditors objected to the sale to Harlow, and in court records filed earlier this month identified at least three separate parties interested in buying the company.

NEWS OF RECORD

Continued from B1 The program is designed for borrowers who received sub-prime or other high-risk loans from Countrywide Financial, the biggest and one of the most aggressive lenders during the housing boom.

Bank of America bought Countrywide in 2008.

Bank of America officials said the program would work this way: A borrower might owe, say, $250,000 on a house whose value has fallen to $200,000. Fifty thousand dollars of that balance would be moved into a special interestfree account.

As long as the owner continued to make payments on the $200,000, every year $10,000 in the special account would be forgiven until either the balance was zero or the housing market had recovered and the borrower once again had positive equity.

“The time has come to test this sort of program,” Jack Schakett, a Bank of America executive, said in a media briefing. “Modifications are better than foreclosure.”

Bank of America said its new program would initially help about 45,000 Countrywide borrowers — a fraction of the 1.2 million Bank of America homeowners who are in default. The total amount of principal reduced, it estimated, would be $3 billion.

Hospital company Area activists condemn harassment changing its name

By Scott Hammers The Bulletin

By Betsy Q. Cliff The Bulletin

Cascade Healthcare Community, the parent company of hospitals in Bend, Redmond and Prineville, next week will change its name to St. Charles Health System.

The name change is being undertaken to alleviate confusion over the identity of the hospital system. It will take effect on April 1 when the organization’s hospitals will switch their letterhead, Web site, e-mail addresses and anything else with the CHC moniker.

“People were not familiar with the Cascade Healthcare Community name,” said Jim Diegel, CEO of the organization. “They were really confused about what Cascade Healthcare Community was.”

None of the individual hospitals within the system, St. Charles Bend, St. Charles Redmond or Pioneer Memorial Hospital, will change their names.

CHC did a community survey last August in which they asked people whether they recognized the various names associated with the organization. According to that survey, just 14 percent said they were familiar with the organization Cascade Health-

care Community.

More than 90 percent of survey respondents, when asked to name a hospital in the Bend area, said St. Charles Bend.

Diegel said that once executives and the board of directors saw those statistics, changing the name became a “no-brainer.”

“We could spend years and millions of dollars trying to establish a brand for CHC, but when it’s clear that the brand is so strong for St. Charles, (we decided) let’s just change the name.”

As of April 1, the new Web site will be stcharleshealthcare.org and e-mail addresses will end with that tag. The old Web site address and e-mails will continue to work for some time.

The change does not affect the organization’s status as a nonprofit hospital nor does it have an impact on any other operations, Diegel said.

Nor was the change caused by the recent split with the Catholic diocese over some of the hospital’s practices, said Diegel. “The timing is awkward but it’s completely unrelated.”

Local conservative activists condemned recent acts of vandalism targeting members of Congress on Wednesday, and said their members are focusing on upcoming elections.

In the run-up to and the days following Sunday’s vote by the House of Representatives to approve a health care reform bill, members supporting the legislation have reported threatening phone calls and other forms

to have an interest in vandalism and intimidation.

“A lot of people got pretty angry last week before the vote and were angry after the vote,” he said. “If this were some kind of insane national protest, I think you’d see things happening across the country, but its still just a few incidents.”

Bend Tea Party board member John Philo called the targeting of lawmakers “abhorrent,” and “sad.”

DEQ meeting to address pollutants in water supply

By Kate Ramsayer The Bulletin

Some pollutants wash into streams, carried by storm water that flows over agricultural fields and city streets. Some are flushed through the sewer system to the wastewater treatment plant and beyond. Others are created from combustion processes and settle out from the air.

And all of the 118 pollutants on the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality’s list of persistent pollutants are toxic, and could be harmful to people or waterways in the state.

While some are chemicals that people don’t often think of as pollutants — like synthetic hormones or food additives — the state is drafting a report on different options to help prevent them from contaminating streams and rivers.

“They’re beginning to be detected in places where we would not expect to see them,” said Cheryl Grabham, project coordinator

Details The DEQ will hold a public meeting on persistent pollutants from 4 to 6 p.m. on April 6 at the agency’s office, 475 N.E. Bellevue Dr., Suite 110, in Bend.

To view the draft report, and for more information, visit www. deq.state.or.us/wq/SB737/.

To submit comments on the report, e-mail p3@deq. state.or.us, or write to Cheryl Grabham, DEQ Water Quality Division, 811 S.W. Sixth Ave., Portland, OR 97204. with DEQ. “They’re just emerging into the public consciousness.

It’s something we might need to be paying more attention to.”

DEQ is holding a meeting in Bend in early April to discuss persistent pollutants and its draft report, and to take public comments.

he warm weather is bringing more people outdoors to enjoy the sun, but it may also bring problems to those trying to get rid of their yard debris. Over the weekend, Bend’s fire crews responded to five fires that had escaped during agricultural burning — a result of gusting

winds and drier weather conditions.

This time of the year, people are cleaning their yards and farmers are burning their fields, Fire Inspector Larry Medina said. This can lead to escaped fires.

“Over the weekend it started, we’ve had a number of escape burns — fires taken by the wind and burning stuff that you didn’t want to burn,” Medina said.

The Bend Fire Department helped extinguish flames from field burning several times on Saturday. Wind

Inside • Tips and alternatives for outdoor burning, Page C5 speed and change in direction is a major cause in the increased number of escaping fires, Medina said.

“Typically we have really calm mornings when most people will start their burn,” he said. “Depending on weather conditions, you’ll

see the winds pick up. Most of it is predictable. You just don’t know when and where. ... They tend to find people right in the middle of the burning, and (the fires) get away.”

A permit is required for commercial and agricultural burning. Two agricultural sites were issued minor violation notices for lacking a permit at sites on Waugh Road on Saturday and Hamehook Road on Tuesday.

Most area businesses pass OLCC check Ten of 13 Central Oregon businesses refused to sell alcohol to minors in a recent compliance check performed by the Oregon Liquor Control Commission.

On March 6, underage volun-

teers working for the OLCC visited the businesses and attempted to purchase alcohol using their own identification.

Three businesses — The Smokehouse, Tom & Charley’s, and Leather’s Fuel, all in Prineville — failed the compliance check. Businesses that fail the check are subject to OLCC penalties including fines or license suspension.

United Way chapter seeking volunteers The United Way of Deschutes County is signing up volunteers for its annual Days of Caring, scheduled for May 22 and 23.

Individual volunteers or volunteer teams from area businesses are matched with a local nonprofit agency for a day of community service. Projects scheduled for this year include repairing and painting bicycles, landscaping, painting, building a swing set for a child care facility and more.

terested in volunteering should contact Terianne at the Untied Way office, at 541-389-6507 or doc@deschutesunitedway.org.

Lost Crooked River Ranch man rescued A man whose vehicle became stuck in the snow in rural Crook County was rescued Tuesday.

Darwin Siebert, of Crooked River Ranch, called the Crook County Sheriff’s Office shortly after 5 p.m. Monday to report that he had become stuck while taking a shortcut, and believed he was 25 to 30 miles southsouthwest of Ashwood.

An initial search by Crook County Search and Rescue found no sign of Siebert. Tuesday morning, the search was turned over to Jefferson County Search and Rescue, and Siebert was spotted by an Oregon State Police airplane. Search and rescue personnel reached Siebert, and a U.S. Forest Service employee transported him to Terrebonne to be picked up by his wife.

COOS BAY — Oregon Resources Corp. wants to mine on Coos County forest lands, but commissioners are at odds over whether the county should pay for its own drilling samples beforehand.

Commissioner Bob Main advocates hiring a consulting service, PBS Engineering and Environmental, to do preliminary drilling for about $80,000. But commissioners Kevin Stufflebean and Nikki Whitty rejected that idea, fearing it would be a waste of money. “We need to see if we can’t come to an agreement outside of spending $80,000,� Whitty said.

The county remains in negotiations with Oregon Resources for an exploration agreement, which would let the company do its own test drilling on county land.

Main, despite being outvoted last week, still argues the county should find out what it has before entering into any agreements. “It wouldn’t be prudent to lease

the ground if we don’t know what we are leasing out, especially when this is known to be a goldbearing region,� Main said.

Oregon Resources wants permission to explore and possibly mine chromite on 6,000 acres of county-owned forest in the Beaver Hill area between Charleston and Bandon.

Main contends the property may hold precious metals along with the chromite. In a recent email, he described the Oregon Resources proposal as “a possible rip-off of county minerals,� which might be worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

Oregon Resources doesn’t deny the presence of gold. But the company says it’s in such small quantities it wouldn’t be worth extracting. The mining company says it is interested in minerals such as chromite, garnet and zircon. Any gold would stay in the soil, to be redeposited in the ground after the targeted minerals are extracted, the company says.

Furthermore, the land-use

lease would include royalties for any mined minerals, including gold.

If hired, PBS would drill approximately 60 holes and 1,400 feet in concentrated areas. The main objective would be to find out what types and percentages of minerals the soil contains.

Oregon Resources has already sampled 9,000 feet of core near Beaver Hill, delving 60 to 100 feet into the ground, Drew said. He doesn’t think PBS’s assessment will be thorough enough to provide an accurate portrayal of the area’s mineral content. “As taxpayers you’re throwing your money away,� Dan Smith, Oregon Resources chief operating officer, told the commissioners last week.

If the county and Oregon Resources reach an agreement, the Portland-based firm has said it will share its core drilling samples with the county.

Main said Oregon Resources has offered to pay the county a 3 percent royalty for minerals mined on county land.

Mount Hood featured on coin

By Lynne Terry

Mining proposal divides Coos County commissioners

reported stolen at 4:52 a.m. March 23, in the 64300 block of Old Bend Redmond Highway in Bend.

Prineville Police Department

PORTLAND — An artist for the U.S. Mint was handed the difficult task last year of capturing the panoramic drama of Mount Hood on a quarter.

Phebe Hemphill studied drawings, sculpted molds, poured clay, fine-tuned the bas relief and then repeated the process until she had a design that was crisp, lush and picture-perfect.

The image was unveiled by the Mint on Wednesday as part of the new America the Beautiful Quarters series honoring national parks and national sights in the 50 states, five territories and the District of Columbia. The coin can be viewed online at at americathebeautiful quarters.gov. “Mount Hood is going to be on quarters that 300 million Americans will see,� said Ed-

mund Moy, director of the Mint.

The image of Mount Hood with Lost Lake and a forest in the foreground is as iconic as the mountain itself, Moy said. “You look at it, and you know it’s Mount Hood,� he said. “She was able to make the lake look like water, and the mountain looks rugged. That’s difficult to do.�

Hemphill, who also designed the Grand Canyon National Park coin, said the Mount Hood image was the more difficult. “You have this long landscape, and you’re trying to capture this great mountain in the distance,� she said. “It’s a challenge, but I think I pulled it off fairly well.�

This is the second round of commemorative state quarters.

The first, 50 State Quarters, ran from 1999 through 2008 and included Crater Lake National

Park on Oregon’s coin.

Gov. Ted Kulongoski’s office suggested both Mount Hood and Timberline Lodge for the America the Beautiful series.

The Mint commissioned four potential designs for the Mount Hood coin, and the governor’s office, U.S. Forest Service and other federal officials gave their feedback on the designs.

The 56 coins will be issued over the next 12 years, based on when the sites were established.

The first quarter — commemorating Hot Springs National Park in Arkansas — will be released in April. The coin for Mount Hood National Forest will be released in November.

O I B Ex-director ordered to repay charity $2M ASTORIA — A Clatsop County judge has ordered the former director of the Wintercross Foundation to repay the charity more than $2 million.

Oregon Attorney General John Kroger said Wednesday the foundation sustained heavy losses and was virtually insolvent because director Ann Ellis invested irresponsibly. The judge’s order bars Ellis from ever again serving as the director of a charity.

Real estate investor Barry Beutel established the foundation in 1990 to promote South American art, but it was not funded until after his 1998 death.

Ellis had been Beutel’s longtime employee.

Teacher pleads not guilty to sex crimes PENDLETON — A teacher and coach at Pilot Rock High School pleaded not guilty this week to multiple sex crimes.

Police arrested Kevin Nice last week on a warrant following a 35-count indictment from a Umatilla County grand jury.

The state has accused the 37year-old of having sexual contact with four girls he knew from his work at Pilot Rock High.

Police arrested Nice in Union County and then brought him to the Umatilla County Jail in Pendleton, where he has remained on a $1 million bond.

A pretrial hearing has been scheduled for April 22.

Deal near on historic S. Oregon building JACKSONVILLE — Jackson County commissioners could decide as early as today to OK the sale of the U.S. Hotel in Jacksonville.

The Mail Tribune newspaper reports that several potential buyers have expressed interest in the historic building, but the county is required to put it up for auction.

An undisclosed minimum bid would be required, though the 1880 building is valued at roughly $2 million.

After expenses involved in the sale are paid off, the Southern Oregon Historical Society would get $1 million and the county would get the rest.

The finally troubled historical society has maintained the building for years.

Saks Fifth Avenue closing Portland store PORTLAND — Saks Fifth Avenue is closing its store in downtown Portland.

In its official WARN notice to the state Tuesday, the luxury retailer said the closure at the end of July would be permanent.

Saks is laying off 100 workers — 88 sales and support staff and 12 managers.

Ashland ski growth Federal judge upholds has little impact on initiative drive reforms weasel, study says

By Tim Fought

The Associated Press

(Medford) Mail Tribune MEDFORD — Projects designed to reduce wildfire hazards in the Ashland watershed likely would disturb more habitat for a rare bushy-tailed weasel than the proposed expansion of the Mount Ashland ski area, according to a newly released environmental study prepared by the U.S. Forest Service.

Ski area expansion likely would remove suitable habitat within the home range of one male Pacific fisher and one female fisher, the study determined. Thinning trees within the Ashland watershed to reduce the risk of a catastrophic wildfire potentially could influence the home range of two to three female fishers and one to two male fishers.

Supporters of the expansion said the new study verifies the conclusions of the 2004 environmental review that approved the expansion.

“We’re still reviewing the document,” said Kim Clark, general manager of the Mount Ashland ski area. “We like what we see so far, and we’re looking forward to moving on.”

Cumulative impacts Expansion opponents said it showed the need to protect fisher habitat and scale back the expansion. Eric Navickas of Ashland, who sued to block the expansion, said the study indicates cumulative impacts on the fisher population should require the Forest Service to modify its wildfire hazard reduction plans and the agency and ski area to scale back the expansion.

“I fully expect (the Forest Service) will see legal challenges again,” Navickas said.

Navickas also sued the Forest Service over its wildfire reduction plan, known as Ashland Forest Resiliency.

The 94-page environmental study draws no new conclusions about the expansion.

Rather, it complies with the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals order to address shortcomings in the final environmental impact statement issued in 2004, said Steve Johnson, project leader.

In September 2007, the court found that the Forest Service failed to adequately study how the expansion might affect fisher habitat. The court also directed the Forest Service to designate land zones known as riparian reserves and restricted watershed terrain within the area where new ski trails would be built.

The 2004 environmental review gave approval for building 16 new ski trails, two chairlifts and about 200 additional parking spaces at the ski area. Three conservation groups sued the Forest Service in federal district court and then appealed the district court decision at the 9th Circuit.

Small population Forest Service biologists estimate there are 48 to 91 fishers in a roughly circular area that extends from just north of the city of Ashland to about six miles south of the California state line, bounded on the east

by Interstate 5. The local fishers are at the extreme northern end of a population of 1,000 to 2,000 animals that extends well into Northern California.

Biologists estimated each male has a range of 15,000 acres to 36,000 acres. Females have a range of about 6,000 acres.

The ski area occupies about 287 acres. The proposed ski runs would require the removal of about 68 acres of trees.

Fishers are wary of humans and human activity, and tend to inhabit heavily treed landscapes. Biologists determined the new ski trails would not prevent fishers from moving north and south across the Siskiyou Mountains.

Ten days earlier, 20-year-old Jessica Ettenger of Los Angeles was found dead in her campus dorm room. The medical examiner’s office also is away toxicology test results to help determine the cause of her death.

PORTLAND — A federal judge has upheld a 2007 law tightening regulations on initiative drives in Oregon.

The law was aimed at enforcing the state’s ban on paying petition passers by the signature — a practice that critics said encouraged fraud such as forged signatures.

Conservative opponents said the law was really aimed at keeping them from putting measures to statewide votes, and it violates their constitutional rights. But in a ruling Tuesday, Judge Michael Hogan said the regulations aren’t overly burdensome and serve the state’s interest in mak-

ing sure that petition drives are conducted legally.

Among the requirements: Paid petition circulators must register, undergo state training and use petition sheets readily identified by color. Their employers must keep contract and payroll records. People convicted of fraud, forgery or ID theft in the past five years can’t be paid to gather petitions.

Backers of the law said such regulation would make it easier for state officials to determine whether petition drives were complying with a 2002 constitutional amendment that outlawed paying signature gatherers on a piecework basis.

Opponents of the law lost one

Marchers protest Portland shooting The Associated Press PORTLAND — Several dozen demonstrators marched Tuesday night through southeast Portland to protest the fatal police shooting of a transient man near Hoyt Arboretum.

The Oregonian newspaper reports the march was peaceful, with demonstrators staying mostly on sidewalks.

Marchers dispersed at the Police Bureau’s traffic division after they were met by officers in riot helmets. Police said they arrested a 26-yearold man on assault and other charges after he hurt a motorcycle officer with his bicycle.

Marchers were dressed in black, and some wore masks.

They were followed by officers on motorcycles, in cars

and on foot.

Police said 58-year-old Jackie Collins had a hobby knife and was coming at the officer, who hit Collins with four shots. Police said Collins had cut his own neck numerous times before encountering the officer on Monday afternoon.

round in state court, and conservatives Russ Walker and Glenn Pelikan filed suit in federal court, alleging the law violated their free speech rights, among others.

But Hogan disagreed with all their objections, saying at one point that a rule would help state officials investigate petitions “which have proven more likely to contain fraudulent signatures, namely those of paid circulators.”

As a legislator in 2007, Secretary of State Kate Brown backed the law and called Hogan’s decision a “win for all Oregonians.”

Ross Day, attorney for Walker and Pelikan, said Hogan’s decision was headed for appellate courts no matter which way he ruled.

Crook Court made its own trouble

T

he Crook County Court has arrived at a mess of its own making.

The court voted to guarantee the performance of a pri-

vate developer to create a subdivision. It can’t be surprised that other developers are lining up asking for the same treatment. Except now, the court isn’t as eager to help out anybody else.

This all started with Breese Ranch LLC. It had divided up a ranch into 10 lots. Before developers can begin selling lots, county code requires them to complete the infrastructure — roads and wells — or post a bond. Breese didn’t have the ability to complete the infrastructure or post a bond.

The county discovered a way it could help out Breese. County Counsel Dave Gordon found a section of county code that enables the county to be the bonding agency for a private development. The county would likely be protected from any financial harm because if Breese failed, the county could sell lots to pay for the infrastructure to be built.

The county court’s vote was 21 and contentious. Commissioner Lynn Lundquist was the lone vote against the deal. It’s just one of the reasons we endorsed him in his race for re-election.

Lundquist recognized that while it’s nice to be able to help out the economy, the county has to be careful about what sort of precedent would be set. Give the deal to Breese

(Crook County Commissioner Lynn) Lundquist recognized that while it’s nice to be able to help out the economy, the county has to be careful about what sort of precedent would be set. and other developers would expect the same treatment. Other developers might be able to make a legal argument that they are entitled to get it. And the court wouldn’t look fair if it didn’t do it for all qualified developers.

Those were plenty of reasons not to do the deal, but here’s one more: Why should the county be getting in the bonding market?

County Judge Mike McCabe and Commissioner Ken Fahlgren led Crook County into this mess by voting for the Breese deal. They should show leadership by getting the county out of the bonding market.

How the stimulus bill erodes efficiency

T

he Government Accountability Office delves periodically into the workings of Congress’ $787 billion stimulus package. The agency released its most recent findings this week, and they focus on that monument to government inefficiency, the prevailing wage. Created by the Davis-Bacon Act, it’s a superminimum wage paid to those who work on federally funded projects.

The stimulus bill imposes prevailing-wage requirements for the first time upon 40 programs spread across 12 federal agencies. While some of these programs are new, most — 33 — existed prior to the stimulus. The wage mandate won’t be a big deal for those programs that fund relatively little construction work. But for some, including the Department of Energy’s Weatherization Assistance Program, the impact will be significant.

The weatherization program subsidizes efficiency upgrades in lowincome housing. The program has existed since 1976, but has remained blissfully free of the prevailing wage choke hold until now. Weatherization officials in Iowa told the GAO that the wage requirement will boost costs by 9 percent per home. The effect will be even larger on contractors weatherizing buildings exceeding four stories, who must pay higher “commercial” prevailing wages.

Officials with the Department of Housing and Urban Development’s

Lead Hazard Reduction Program tell a similar story. One local official warned the GAO that the prevailing wage could boost costs by 10 to 13 percent per home. But that isn’t all. Federal officials with both the lead removal and weatherization programs predicted that various administrative requirements attached to the prevailing wage “would be particularly burdensome for small companies.” As a result, HUD is preparing to boost the amount of money grant recipients may spend on administrative costs by 50 percent.

The prevailing wage’s supporters like to focus on the very real benefit to people cashing artificially inflated paychecks. What they hope everyone else overlooks, meanwhile, is the fact that funding is finite — no matter what Congress’ behavior might suggest. The stimulus bill, for instance, steered $5 billion into the weatherization assistance program.

What happens when you increase the salaries of people doing weatherization work and devote more money to wage-related red tape? You decrease the number of people you can employ and the number of houses you can weatherize.

Ironically, the weatherization program is supposed to enhance efficiency. If Congress and the president were as determined to use the public’s money as efficiently as the world’s energy, this country would be in much better shape than it is.

My Nickel’s Worth Life of a public servant is not so easy Ed Barbeau has filed to run for Deschutes County commissioner. In January, The Bulletin printed Ed’s letter condemning the “high paid” Deschutes County administrator and blaming public employees as the number one reason taxes keep getting raised. He praised corporations for creating wealth, condemning public employees for not doing that.

First, corporations create jobs; the wealth they create goes back to the stockholders or their CEOs. The “wealth” is the profit we pay for when we buy their products. Ed creates his own wealth in his company, not your wealth.

Second, if elected, Ed will make $6,410.56 a month, plus health and PERS benefits. I am wondering if Ed will consider himself overpaid. Will Ed accept the blame for high taxes? Will he accept this salary or forego it so as not to be a hypocrite?

I do hope Ed wins. He needs a life lesson in what it is like to be a public servant.

He needs to know how it feels to have the public complain about every decision he makes and hate the fact that he is being paid at all. We need people like Ed to work in public office. If he doesn’t pull a Sarah Palin and quit because he cannot take the heat, then he will have learned something the rest of us public servants have — that working for government is not as easy as it seems. Ed needs to walk in someone else’s shoes.

Go, Ed. Nancy Buffinton-Kelm Sisters

Teaching’s tough

Wilderness size

For those who think that teachers have the best job in the world, I say, go back to college, get your advanced degree and credential, and start your new dream job. But before you do, I recommend you walk in the shoes of a teacher first.

Salary: If you do the math with the contract hours and annual salary, the hourly rate looks like generous compensation. But think about it — teachers spend those contract hours with students. Everything else that teachers are required to do must be done in the evenings, on weekends, and over the summer (on top of a second job for many). Do the math again with the actual number of hours teachers work, and the hourly rate no longer seems so generous.

Accountability: Make a list of all the factors that go into a successful education from the birth of a child forward to age 18. Of all those items, teachers have control over the curriculum and the classroom environment.

The students spend most of their days and years outside of school, yet the public holds teachers accountable for everything.

Barbara Doherty (March 9) is not alone when she muses about the perks of being a public school teacher. To her and others, I highly recommend you make arrangements to spend a week in a classroom with 30 to 40 students, taking bathroom breaks only when the teacher does. Then you might be able to answer Barbara’s question, what am I missing here?

Wendy Hill Bend

A recent opinion piece expressed concerns about U.S. Forest Service (USFS) approaches to OHV management. The author made several good points, including the economic significance of OHV use and that well-designed trail systems can be compatible with multiple use management. While not a fan myself, I appreciate that others view OHV use as an important component of their public land experience.

That said, some of the information presented was misleading. For example, the author claims that wilderness areas occupy approximately 66 percent of national forest land, which would support his claim that USFS policies are essentially “locking” OHV users out of public lands.

Data from the 2009 National Forest System Land Areas Report indicate that federally designated wilderness accounts for 19 percent of all national forest land nationwide, 14 percent of national forest land in Oregon and 11 percent in the Deschutes National Forest. Data from 2004 are similar.

It is quite clear that designated wilderness is a minority land unit within the national forest system. The total land area available to OHV users may be small in comparison to the land area where they are restricted, but designated wilderness isn’t the issue. The author also indicates that OHV users have no desire to go off-trail if quality trail experiences are available. That may represent the views of some OHV users, but it certainly can’t be said of all users, and the impacts of off-trail use are exactly why the USFS attempts to limit OHV use in the first place.

Legislature creates PERS perk in special session

By Daniel Re Bulletin guest columnist

I

n one of their first acts during the 2010 Special Session, 71 members of the Oregon Legislature voted to override Gov. Kulongoski’s veto of Senate Bill 897. Now that it has become law, SB 897 provides that PERS members can request verification of the data that their retirement benefits will be calculated on, such as years of service, account balance and final average salary. The law then requires that the verification data must be used to compute the member’s PERS retirement benefit, even if the data is wrong.

There are three exceptions to this mandatory use of incorrect data. It will not be used if: (1) the error reduces the PERS member’s retirement benefit; (2) adjustments will be made for changes to the data that occur after the verification

date; or, (3) if the member knew the information was wrong and did not notify PERS within 60 days of receiving the verification data.

The only exception to the mandatory rule that makes sense is exception two, as it takes into consideration actual changes in the data that occur after the date of the verification.

Exception one defies any logical explanation. Why must incorrect data be used if it increases the retirement benefit but cannot be used if it reduces the benefit?

Exception three provides no real safeguard against the use of incorrect data because PERS members have no obligation to read the verified data that is given to them. If they do not read the data, they cannot know that it is wrong. And there is no reason for them to read it because it can never hurt them; it can only increase their benefits.

IN MY VIEW Here is an example of what could happen under SB 897. The figures are based on the PERS benefit estimator. PERS member Smith has an account balance of $100,000, 31 years of service, 30 hours of unused vacation time and a last annual salary of $60,000. With that data, PERS member Smith would be entitled to an estimated PERS retirement benefit of $4,176 per month. However, if PERS member Smith received but did not read a verification statement that incorrectly added another 0 to the account balance, unused vacation time and last annual salary, PERS member Smith would be entitled to an estimated retirement benefit of $42,500 per month.

Under SB 897, the people of Oregon must pay PERS member Smith 10 times

the earned PERS retirement. If the error had instead removed a 0 from PERS member Smith’s account balance, unused sick leave and final average salary, the estimated retirement benefit would be $415 per month. But in that case, the incorrect data must be disregarded and PERS member Smith receives the actual earned benefit of $4,176 per month.

It is difficult to understand how the Oregon Legislative Assembly would pass SB 897 over the governor’s veto. Rep. Whisnant voted against overriding the veto. Sen. Telfer and Rep. Stiegler, however, voted for the override. On March 4, I emailed them asking why they did so, but as of March 15, neither has responded.

One senator who voted for the veto override was quoted as saying, “It’s time to stop letting bureaucrats dump liability for mistakes onto the backs of the citizens.

If bureaucrats screw up, retirees lose.”

That simply is not true regarding a bureaucratic screwup of how much a PERS member’s estimated retirement benefit is going to be. If the retiree receives what he or she is actually entitled to, nothing has been lost. It is SB 897 that dumps liability to pay unearned retirement benefits on the backs of the citizens.

Another representative said, “This bill says that when an agency makes an estimate it ought to get it right.” The reality is that SB 897 does nothing to help an agency “get it right.” In fact, it is likely to encourage mistakes to be made.

SB 897 allows anyone with legitimate or illegitimate access to the PERS computer system, from PERS employees to computer hackers, to establish a PERS member’s retirement benefit. That’s wrong and it needs to change.

Peltonen created UCLA genetics department Los Angeles Times Dr. Leena Peltonen, an unusually prolific genetics researcher whose team discovered mutated genes responsible for 15 inherited diseases and who established the department of human genetics at UCLA, died of cancer March 11 at her home in Finland. She was 57.

Her “contribution to understanding the genetics of human disease has been a lifelong commitment and is simply outstanding,” said Allan Bradley, director of the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute in England, where Peltonen ended her career.

According to the Academy of Finland, which awarded her the honorary title of Academician of Science in October 2009, “Her team diagnosed genetic mutations associated with dyslipidemias (abnormal cholesterol levels), lactose intolerance, MS disease, schizophrenia, obesity and heart diseases. ...

Their efforts have paved the way to new diagnostic tests and to screening for disease carriers.”

‘I Spy’ star Robert Culp

By Bob Thomas The Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — Robert Culp, the actor who teamed with Bill Cosby in the racially groundbreaking TV series “I Spy” and was Bob in the critically acclaimed sex comedy “Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice,” died Wednesday after collapsing outside his Hollywood home, his manager said. Culp was 79.

Manager Hillard Elkins said the actor was on a walk when he fell. He was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead just before noon.

The actor’s son was told he died of a heart attack, Elkins said, though police were unsure if the fall was medically Robert Culp related.

Los Angeles police Lt. Robert Binder said no foul play was suspected. Binder said a jogger found Culp, who apparently fell and struck his head.

“I Spy” greatly advanced the careers of Culp and Cosby and forged a lifelong friendship.

Cosby said Wednesday that Culp was like an older brother to him.

“The firstborn in every family is always dreaming of the older brother or sister he or she doesn’t have, to protect, to be the buffer, provide the wisdom, shoulder the blows and make things right,” he said. “Bob was the answer to my dreams.

“No matter how many mistakes I made on ‘I Spy,’ he was always there to teach and protect me,” Cosby said.

Candace Culp, the actor’s exwife, said she was devastated.

“He was a wonderful, creative man who contributed so much to his business, as an actor, as a writer, as a director,” she said.

Robert Culp lately had been working on writing screenplays, Elkins said.

TV milestone “I Spy,” which aired from 1965 to 1968, was a television milestone in more ways than one. Its combination of humor and adventure broke new ground, and it was the first integrated television show to feature a black actor in a starring role.

Culp played Kelly Robinson, a spy whose cover was that of an ace tennis player. (In real life, Culp actually was a top-notch tennis player who showed his skills in numerous celebrity tournaments.). Cosby was fellow spy Alexander Scott, whose cover was that of Culp’s trainer. The pair traveled the world in the service of the U.S. government.

Culp followed “I Spy” with his most prestigious film role, in “Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice.” The work

Pollutants Continued from C1 The report stems from 2007 legislation that required the DEQ to come up with a list of these persistent pollutants, as well as a report on where they come from and what could be done to reduce them.

“They’re pollutants that come from all kinds of sources,” Grabham said.

The list includes pharmaceuticals that get washed down drains, pesticides that wash off not only farms, but backyards, and flame retardants and other chemicals used on furniture

Activists Continued from C1 “Most people here are pretty level-headed within the Tea Party group; we don’t have a rebel component as far as I can tell,” he said. “It’s mostly just people like me who are concerned with the activities in Washington, D.C.” Carrigg said groups like his can sometimes attract zealots hoping to find a friendly audience.

In November, a pair of 9/11 conspiracy theorists turned up at an open meeting of the Bend Tea Party, Carrigg said, and one

Burning Continued from C1 People need to follow burning requirements, Medina said.

“If you are burning, you have to be attending your fire,” he said. “So attending would be, you are physically present and you’re not inside eating lunch with your eyes on it. So you want to be physically out there.”

As an alternative to burning, Medina recommends that people take advantage of 2010 Project Wildfire FireFree Recycle Days in May. “We have the FireFree Recycle Days, so really, we find that the easiest,” Medina said. “You take it to the landfill for free and that can be turned into a compost and a number of other things that just doesn’t get buried in a landfill.”

Burning debris leaves behind ashes, which need to be taken to a landfill, Medina said. Recycling debris eliminates that extra step, he said.

“The reminder would be that when the conditions change — the wind — you need to take appropriate action which would be to extinguish the fire, especially if those winds are going to be prolonged,” Medina said.

Tips for outdoor burning

The Associated Press file photo

This undated photo originally released by NBC shows Robert Culp, left, and Bill Cosby starring as a team of American agents in the 1960s television series, “I Spy.” Culp, 79, died Wednesday of first-time director Paul Mazursky, who also co-wrote the screenplay, lampooned the lifestyles of the sexual revolution of the 1960s.

Bob and Carol (Culp and Natalie Wood) introduced wife-swapping to their best friends, Ted and Alice (Elliott Gould and Dyan Cannon).

Culp also had starring roles in such films as “The Castaway Cowboy,” “Golden Girl,” “Turk 182!” and “Big Bad Mama II.” His teaming with Cosby, however, was likely his best remembered role.

Cosby won Emmys for actor in a leading role all three years that “I Spy” aired, and Culp, who was nominated for the same award each year, said he was never jealous.

“I was the proudest man around,” he said in a 1977 interview.

Both he and Cosby were involved in civil rights causes, and when Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated in 1968 the pair traveled to Memphis, Tenn., to join the striking garbage workers King had been organizing.

Culp and Cosby also costarred

in the 1972 movie “Hickey and Boggs,” which Culp also directed.

This time they were hard-luck private detectives who encountered multiple deaths. Audiences who had enjoyed the lightheartedness of “I Spy” were disappointed, and the movie flopped at the box office.

“His proudest moments were when he was writing and directing ‘I Spy’ and ‘Hickey and Boggs,’” Cosby said. “Bob was meticulous and committed.”

After years of talking up the idea, they finally re-teamed in 1994 for a two-hour CBS movie, “I Spy Returns.”

and electronics that can make their way into the environment. The list also includes industrial chemicals, pesticides, polychlorinated bisphenyls, or PCBs, as well as pollutants that result from wildfires and wood stoves.

The 2007 legislation also requires the state’s 52 largest municipalities — including Bend, Redmond and Sunriver — to test for the 118 chemicals to determine which ones are above levels the state sets. That testing, which has to be done twice, could start this summer and costs $7,000 per round.

Once the municipalities know which pollutants are above the

limit in wastewater, they have to develop a plan for reducing the chemicals, which has to be completed by July.

DEQ’s draft report outlines some steps that could be taken to cut down on the chemicals, including researching and promoting alternative products that don’t have toxic materials, setting up programs to certify that products are free of the toxics and developing new pollution prevention technologies.

The state also could set regulations for new storm water controls, restricting different types of open burns, or requiring disclosures on pesticides, among other actions.

Persistent pollutants aren’t at the top on the list of water concerns in Central Oregon, where the focus is on things like water temperature and sediments, said Ryan Houston, executive director of the Upper Deschutes Watershed Council.

“It’s not something that’s come up a lot,” Houston said. ”But the trick with things like this is, we don’t know if it hasn’t come up a lot because we haven’t thought about it yet, or it hasn’t come up a lot because it’s not a problem.”

man on the group’s mailing list has attempted to redirect the group’s purpose toward the abolishment of the Federal Reserve.

A group of neo-Nazis showed up at a southern Oregon Tea Party rally last summer, he said, but was persuaded to leave by event organizers.

Carrigg said the group is in the process of organizing an April 15 rally and mobilizing its members to vote in the November election.

“We don’t need a brick for that, we just need to mail in that envelope and hope it’s not thrown in the garbage down at the county,” he said.

U.S. Sens. Ron Wyden and

Jeff Merkley, both Democrats who supported the health care legislation in the Senate, and Rep. Greg Walden, a Republican who voted against the bill on Sunday, all maintain field offices in Bend.

Merkley’s Deputy Communications Director Courtney Warner Crowell said there have been no threats at any of the senator’s field offices.

“We have gotten, clearly in the last few months, communication from people who disagree about the health care bill or other issues, but for the most part, all of the communication has been done in a civil manner,” she said.

Warner Crowell said the tenor of the debate over health care seems to have become more respectful in recent months. Recent Merkley town halls held in Clatsop, Tilamook and Lincoln counties were lightly attended as compared to town halls late last summer, she said, and phone calls to the senator’s offices opposing health care reform have fallen off from their peak in December.

Wyden’s office did not return a call for comment.

Other roles In his first movie role Culp played one of John Kennedy’s crew in “PT 109.”

His first starring TV series, “Trackdown” (1957-1959) was a Western based partly on files of the Texas Rangers. In the 1980s, he starred as an FBI agent in the fantasy “The Greatest American Hero.”

He remained active in movies and TV. Among his notable later performances was as a U.S. president in 1993’s “The Pelican Brief.” More recently, he had a recurring role as Patricia Heaton’s father in the sitcom “Everybody Loves Raymond” and appeared in such shows as “Robot Chicken,” “Chicago Hope” and an episode of “Cosby.”

Robert Martin Culp, born in 1930 in Oakland, Calif., led a peripatetic existence as a college student, attending College of the Pacific in Stockton, Calif., Washington University in St. Louis and San Francisco State College before landing at the University of Washington drama school.

Then at age 21, a semester removed from his degree, he moved to New York, where he began landing roles in off-Broadway plays.

Culp was married five times, to Nancy Ashe, Elayne Wilner, France Nuyen, Sheila Sullivan and Candace Culp. He had four children with Ashe and one with Candace Culp.

Paul Xochihua, left, representing Cascade Pacific Council, a Boy Scout organization in Portland, and Charles Smith, attorney for the national Boy Scouts, attend a hearing in Multnomah County Courthouse in Portland last week. An Oregon man’s lawsuit alleges the Boy Scouts of America knew it had child molesters among its troop leaders but didn’t tell parents or authorities and sometimes let confessed pedophiles continue in scouting activities.

Trial: Abuse expert says Scouts put boys at risk

By Ab b y Haight The Associated Press

PORTLAND — The Boy Scouts of America showed reckless indifference to protecting young Scouts when it kept confidential two decades’ worth of files on suspected molesters among its troop leaders, a psychologist testified Wednesday as part of a $14 million lawsuit against the organization.

Despite creating a remarkably in-depth file about sexual abusers, the Boy Scouts failed to warn parents or tell authorities about suspected or confessed pedophiles, said Gary Schoener, a national expert and consultant on sexual misconduct in the clergy, health care and other segments of society. Some boys may have become victims because of the silence, he told the Multnomah County Circuit Court jury.

“The Boy Scouts had the information, had the knowledge, had

the ability to make a difference,” Schoener said. “And they didn’t.”

The lawsuit was brought by a 37-year-old Klamath Falls man who was abused by an assistant Scoutmaster, Timur Dykes, in the early 1980s. Dykes was convicted three times between 1983 and 1994 of sexually abusing boys, most of them Scouts. He acknowledged abusing the plaintiff in a video deposition played for jurors last week.

The Boy Scouts began keeping secret files on suspected molesters among its adult volunteers decades ago. Dubbed the “perversion files” by the organization, the more than 1,100 reports from 1965-84 were released into evidence in the suit last week.

The files noted that confessed abusers who completed probation with the Scouts often were allowed to return to Scout activities. The files didn’t explain what the Scouts’ probation entailed,

Schoener said.

Schoener, who studied hundreds of the formerly confidential files, said the detailed documents showed patterns, including how molesters would groom potential victims, how most pedophiles had many victims and how most re-offended. He said it was the most complete picture of sexual abusers and victims in the country at the time.

“Some are as thorough as a police report,” Schoener said.

“Clearly, they realized they had a problem. They created a system to deal with it.”

Oregon men’s team is ranked No. 1

Bend falls to 6A’s Canby

EUGENE — The men’s golf team at the University of Oregon — which includes Bend’s Andrew Vijarro — is now the No. 1-ranked team in the country.

For the first time in the UO golf program’s history, the Ducks are rated No. 1 among 285 NCAA Division I teams

by Golfstat.com, according to the golf Web site’s latest rankings released Wednesday.

The rankings are based on head-to-head standings. Oregon so far this season has compiled a 12-1 mark against teams ranked in the top 25, and the Ducks lead the nation in adjusted scoring average at 71.49 strokes per round.

Vijarro, a UO sophomore and former Bend High School standout, has been a crucial member of Oregon’s run to the top of the rankings. He has four top-10 finishes this season and ranks No. 66 in the Golfstat Cup standings, which rank the top Division I golfers.

The Ducks’ ranking comes on the heels of their win Tuesday at the Oregon Duck Invitational in Junction City, Oregon’s second tournament win of the 2009-10 season.

—Bulletin staff report

Bulletin staff report Bend High expected a challenge from Canby — and the Lava Bears got one.

Canby’s Cougars, who finished third last season in the Class 6A Pacific Conference, handily defeated the 5A Lava Bears on Wednesday afternoon, winning 9-1 in the nonleague baseball contest on the Bend High diamond.

“We wanted to play a tough nonleague schedule in order to challenge the team,” said Dan Weber, the Bend head coach. “There’s no sense of panic over this.”

Weber noted that the Cougars’ pitching staff registered several strikeouts, holding back an already struggling Bend offense. Conversely, Lava Bear pitchers Travis Wiest and Grant

Inside • More coverage of Wednesday’s prep events, Page D2 Newton battled with control and allowed a number of Canby players on base.

Tallying only two errors, Bend’s defense was solid, Weber said.

Offensively for Bend, Kenny Norgaard belted a triple. Collecting Bend’s other three hits were Lucas Degaetano with two hits and Steven Barrett adding one hit.

Wednesday’s loss dropped the Lava Bears to 1-3 overall. Bend will travel to face Grant in nonconference play tomorrow.

The NCAA’s new stars, old stars and fading stars

BASEBALL M’s Bradley: I am baseball’s Kanye PEORIA, Ariz. — Many around baseball have a place for Milton Bradley: in a corner where angry meets trouble.

Bradley has no use for what anyone thinks. He claims his own place in the game.

“If I was a musician, I’d be Kanye West. If I was in the NBA, I’d be Ron Artest,” the 31-year-old former Expo, Indian, Dodger, Athletic, Padre, Ranger and Cub said this week. “In baseball, they’ve got Milton Bradley. I’m that guy.

You need people like me, so you can point your finger and go, ‘There goes the bad guy.’”

Here’s “the bad guy,” the 2008 All-Star with Texas, taking batting practice on a side field, smiling and shagging fly balls falling out of a desert sun while wearing his eighth different uniform in 11 major-league seasons.

Here’s “the bad guy,” the one Cubs general manager Jim Hendry said should “look in the mirror” and stop blaming everyone else for his tumultuous season in Chicago.

Here’s that “bad guy,” ejected twice in three Mariners spring games last week.

But Bradley is smiling a lot this month. Part of it is because he says his legs are as healthy as they’ve been since he hit .321 for Cleveland in 2003, tying a career high. The physical part may have changed, but Bradley says the fiery, controversial persona won’t.

“I had a teammate last year who said if I ever change, he’d kick my (rear),” Bradley said. “So I’m not changing.

Everybody is not going to love you, no matter how you treat other people, no matter what you say.”

This 2008 photo shows steelhead fry shortly before they were released into Whychus Creek near Sisters. Biologists are hoping some of these fish will make it to the ocean and eventually return to Whychus Creek as large, adult steelhead.

Historic runs set to return?

Reintroduction of salmon, steelhead to Upper Deschutes Basin could allow for fishing seasons, but it might take decades

By Mark Morical The Bulletin

Central Oregon anglers hoping to soon fish for salmon and steelhead in the Metolius, Crooked and Middle Deschutes rivers should not hold their breath.

A massive project to restore historic runs of salmon and steelhead in the Upper Deschutes Basin could be a crowning environmental achievement. But whether it work remains to be seen.

HUNTING will And whether it will result in a & FISHING fishery for salmon and steelhead is a question, according to biologists, that might not be answered for some 20 years.

Biologists are currently gathering thousands of chinook smolts and kokanee on Lake Billy Chinook at the $100 million underwater structure designed to collect fish and safely transport

Bulletin file photo

This steelhead was caught last year on the Lower Deschutes. If the reintroduction effort is successful, Deschutes steelhead and chinook salmon could return to their original home waters above Pelton Dam as far upstream as Big Falls. They could also return to the Metolius and Crooked rivers.

y now, a nation full of college basketball fans knows all about Northern Iowa’s Ali Farokhmanesh.

The son of an Iranian Olympic volleyball player hit two icy three-pointers to shoot the Panthers into the NCAA tournament’s round of 16 for the first time at the expense of UNLV and Kansas.

The next Stephen Curry? He could be if Northern Iowa gets past Michigan State.

Halfway through this March of madness, Farokhmanesh has distinguished himself as one of the attention-grabbers of this year’s NCAA tournament.

What about the rest of the field?

Well, there are plenty of other story lines: players making names for themselves and their teams, stars living up to their billing on the marquee, others who have wilted under the spotlight.

Here’s a look at who’s hot, who’s not and who has put themselves on the spot in each region:

West Rising star: Shelvin Mack, Butler, So., 6-3, 215 — Teammate Gordon Hayward gets more attention, but Butler’s reserved shooter — no tattoos, no trash talking — matched a careerhigh with 25 points and had seven three-pointers against UTEP. He may need to do it again against No. 1 seed Syracuse.

Not as advertised: Jamar Samuels, Kansas State, So., 6-7, 215 — K-State’s super sub

Inaugural 4-H sportsmen’s pentathlon is a big success avid White had tried for seven years to land his first steelhead.

Now, on the banks of the Deschutes River, with Doug Hart and Todd Williver, he waded in and powered a cast toward the opposite bank. When the fly line touched down, he threw an upstream mend as he had done countless times before.

Marking another line, he cast again and watched the indicator bob through the seam.

He took two steps out and boomed a third cast.

When the supercharged vision of chrome and rainbow was subdued, White and Williver sat at the water’s edge.

Both 4-H program coordinators, White and Williver had been talking about a fundraiser to boost the effectiveness of 4-H programs in Deschutes County.

“How about a sportsmen’s pentathlon to pit sportsmen teams against each other in a variety of events?”

Sisters softball falls in 11 innings to Class 6A school Bulletin staff report CANBY — Class 6A Tigard pounced on the Sisters softball team in game one of the Outlaws’ doubleheader at the Canby Tournament, shutting out Sisters 10-0 in nonconference play. Yet the Outlaws fought back against 6A Canby in game two, finally losing 8-7 after 11 hard-fought innings.

In both games, Sisters struggled with defensive errors, allowing the 6A squads more opportunities to score. Offensively for the Outlaws, Marisa Calavan belted a double in game two. Dara Kosanke of Sisters tallied 15 total strikeouts in the games.

The Outlaws fell to 3-2 overall. Sisters will host Madras and La Pine at the Sisters Tournament on Friday.

Shootout goals lift Avalanche to 4-3 win over Kings The Associated Press DENVER — The new guy rescued the game and quite possibly the season, too.

Peter Mueller had one of the two shootout goals and the scuffling Colorado Avalanche beat the Los Angeles Kings 43 on Wednesday night to end a three-game winless streak.

The Avalanche moved into a tie with Nashville in points with 89 — two more than eighthplace Detroit and six ahead of ninth-place Calgary in the race for the eight conference playoff spots.

NHL ROUNDUP “Huge getting the two points,” Mueller said. “We couldn’t settle for anything less.”

All Mueller has done since coming over from Phoenix in a deadline deal is find a way to pitch in. This, though, was one of his biggest contribution yet.

The Avalanche have been in a free fall in the Western Conference standings since the Olympic break. They needed something, anything, to go their way.

But Colorado squandered

a two-goal lead, allowing the Kings to tie it with 1:21 remaining when Alexander Frolov sent a shot over Craig Anderson’s shoulder.

In the shootout, Mueller got things rolling by sneaking a shot through the pads of Erik Ersberg, who came on in relief of starting goalie Jonathan Quick after Quick allowed three goals in the opening period.

Chris Stewart followed by beating Ersberg with a shot to

the glove side.

Anderson made it stand up, stopping Anze Kopitar and then receiving a little help when Ryan Smyth’s wrist shot clanged off the goal post to end the game.

NBA ROUNDUP

Lakers beat Spurs, extend win streak to 7 The Associated Press SAN ANTONIO — Kobe Bryant kept his shooting hand raised high, smiling while backpedaling to halfcourt after burying the San Antonio Spurs.

A seventh straight win for the Los Angeles Lakers looked that easy.

Bryant scored 24 points and hit a pair of backbreaking three-pointers in the fourth quarter, helping the Lakers preserve their second-longest winning streak of the season with a 92-83 victory on Wednesday night.

“It was a playoff-type of atmosphere,” Bryant said. “We were down in the first half. We had to battle back. It was a good win for us to start this road trip.”

He means a five-game road trip, the longest left for the Lakers before the playoffs. With just 11 games remaining, the West-leading Lakers have a six-game cushion over Dallas.

The Spurs, meanwhile, are seventh in the West, a halfgame ahead of Portland.

San Antonio might have blown a chance to get more breathing room.

Manu Ginobili scored 24 points and George Hill had 21, but the Spurs got little help from anyone else. San Antonio had no other scorers in double figures, and got a dreadful two-of-11 night from Tim Duncan, who finished with six points and 12 rebounds.

Golf • Tiger to hold first press conference at Masters: Tiger Woods will speak before he plays in the Masters. Woods is scheduled to hold his first press conference in nearly five months at 11 p.m. PDT on Monday, April 5, according to a tentative interview schedule that Augusta National released Wednesday. It will be his first press conference in nearly five months, and his first time facing a room full of reporters since he crashed his SUV into a tree on Nov. 27, setting off shocking revelations of rampant infidelity.

He did appear in a televised statement last month, but did not take questions.

Hockey • NHL players union to vote on head shot ban: All that stands between the NHL and a rule banning blindside hits to the head is final approval from the players’ association. The union’s representatives on the competition committee signed off on the new rule Wednesday. The executive board will soon vote on the proposed edict to eliminate dangerous hits against unsuspecting skaters. If the ban passes, the NHL will be allowed to issue supplemental discipline to violators as early as Thursday.

Figure skating • Pang-Tong win world pairs title: Pang Qing and Tong Jian have a world title to go with their Olympic silver medal. Runners-up at the Vancouver Olympics last month, Pang and Tong easily won their second title Wednesday at the World Figure Skating Championships in Turin, Italy. Earlier Wednesday, Olympic bronze medalist Daisuke Takahashi took the lead in the men’s competition.

U.S. champion Jeremy Abbott is sixth

Baseball • Gooden charged with driving on drugs: Former Major League Baseball star Dwight Gooden has been charged with driving under the influence of drugs and leaving the scene of an accident in New Jersey. The former pitcher for the New York Mets and New York Yankees had a child in his vehicle at the time of the two-vehicle crash around 9 a.m. Tuesday, Franklin Lakes police Capt. Joseph Seltenrich said.

• Beavs win: Adalberto Santos hit his third home run of the season and Ryan Gorton threw five scoreless innings as the 17th-ranked Oregon State baseball team defeated Southern Utah, 111, Wednesday night at Goss Stadium in Corvallis. With the win, Oregon State improved to 15-3 on the year and the Beavers have won nine straight dating back to March 6.

NCAA Continued from D1 Up to the hype: Jacob Pullen, Kansas State, Jr., 6-0, 200 — The scruffy-necked shooter has made NCAA opponents “Fear the Beard” so far. Known for his near-halfcourt range, Pullen has displayed the depths of his overall game by scoring 34 points and playing inside BYU’s Jimmer Fredette’s jersey in what might be the best performance of the tournament.

Midwest Rising star: Ali Farokhmanesh, Northern Iowa, Sr., 6-0, 190 — Big-shot Ali has carried the Panthers into the round of 16 for the first time ever. He knocked off UNLV in the first round with a three-pointer with 4.9 seconds left, then toppled Kansas with an are-you-kidding-me dagger early in the shot clock with his team leading by one with about 40 second to play. Oh, and he iced that game with two late free throws, too.

Not as advertised: Evan Turner, Ohio State, Jr., 6-7, 210 — Hard to pick on a guy who had 24 points and came an assist and a rebound away from a triple-double his last game, but Turner has been inconsistent.

He had just nine points on twoof-13 shooting in the first round against UC Santa Barbara, then

had nine turnovers to nearly pull an unwelcome quadruple-double against Georgia Tech.

Up to the hype: Wayne Chism, Tennessee, Sr., 6-9, 246 — Consistency has been big fella’s biggest contribution so far in the tournament, as it was during the regular season. He’s averaged an unexciting 10.0 points in two NCAA tournament games, but has drawn double teams in the middle while crashing the boards and anchoring the Vols’ stingy defense.

South Rising star: Omar Samhan, St. Mary’s, Sr., 6-11, 265 — The once-pudgy teen has become a force for the Gaels in their first run to the regional semifinals in more than 50 years. The affable big guy has attracted attention in the paint to free up St. Mary’s gunners while still averaging 30.5 points and shooting 75 percent.

Not as advertised: Jon Scheyer, Duke, Sr., 6-5, 190 — The Blue Devils’ best shooter has misfired in the NCAA tournament. He opened the tournament with a ho-hum 13-point game against Arkansas-Pine Bluff and followed with a one-for-11 performance against Cal. Duke can’t have another sub-par shooting game from him, especially with Purdue up next.

Up to the hype: LaceDarius Dunn, Baylor, Jr., 6-4, 205 — The

king of the stepback three has shot the Bears into the regional semifinals for the first time in their history. Dunn has averaged 19.5 points while filling up the rest of the stat sheet.

East Rising star: Ryan Wittman, Cornell, Sr., 6-7, 215 — The son of former NBAer Randy Wittman has a lightning-quick shot release. Give him half an inch, it’s going up and usually in. Wittman has seven three-pointers in two NCAA tournament games, helping the Big Red become the first Ivy League team since 1979 to reach the round of 16.

Not as advertised: Patrick Patterson, Kentucky, Jr., 6-9, 235 — Get to this point in the season and criticizing sounds like nitpicking, but the Wildcats could use a little more consistency from their elder statesman. Patterson was solid against Wake Forest, but had just four points in the opener against East Tennessee State.

Up to the hype: John Wall, Kentucky, Fr., 6-4, 195 — The athletic freshman has led the top-seeded Wildcats to a pair of easy wins, including a doubledouble in the opening round against East Tennessee State. So what if he turns it over a little too much? This guy’s fun to watch.

Now Open: Private Reservoir with aggressive Triploid Trout from 5-25 lbs. in size Catch & Release 30 minutes from Redmond, Madras & Prineville.

lia won the first gold medals of the track cycling world championships in Ballerup, Denmark, Wednesday with Anna Meares winning the women’s 500-meter time trial and Cameron Meyer defending his title in the men’s points race. U.S. rider Sarah Hammer won the women’s individual pursuit and Germany outpaced defending champion France in the men’s team sprint.

Basketball • Onuaku out for Syracuse: Syracuse center Arinze Onuaku will not play Thursday against Butler in the West Regional semifinal. Orange coach Jim Boeheim says the 6-foot-9 center is doing better but will not be available for the Butler game. Onuaku has an injured right quadriceps.

• Nuggets’ Karl might miss rest of regular season: The Denver Nuggets might not have coach George Karl back on the sideline until the playoffs begin next month. Karl is undergoing treatment for throat and neck cancer and, according to a blog by his girlfriend, he was hospitalized this week with blood clots in his lungs and a leg. Adrian Dantley has served as acting head coach for eight games since Karl announced just after the All-Star break that he had been diagnosed with cancer. Dantley is 5-3 in those games. The Nuggets (47-24) are tied with Dallas in second place in the Western Conference standings and are clinging to a one-game lead over the Utah Jazz in the Northwest Division.

Football • Lions ‘definitely interested’ in Pacman: Adam “Pacman” Jones is getting looks from NFL teams again. Detroit Lions coach Jim Schwartz said Wednesday at the NFL meetings that the Lions are gathering more information about Jones’ level of commitment and how he could fit in Detroit’s system. The Lions were among a few teams that worked out Jones last week in New Orleans. Jones, now 26, was an elite cornerback and kick returner in his first two seasons with the Tennessee Titans. But he was suspended for the 2007 season by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell for his repeated off-field incidents, including six arrests since he was drafted in 2005.

• NFL passes player safety rules: NFL players should be safer during games thanks to several rules changes passed at the league meetings. They also might be playing longer in regular-season overtimes. The NFL passed rules Wednesday to further protect defenseless players, including ball carriers who lose their helmet during a play. Seven of eight overall rules proposals were adopted, then several owners said they also expect the modified overtime for the playoffs that passed the previous day to be revisited in May to include the regular season.

Continued from D1 When the salmon and steelhead return from the ocean, they will be trucked back around the dam and released into Lake Billy Chinook, where they can then make their way to the Metolius, Crooked and Middle Deschutes rivers.

Mike Gauvin, Pelton mitigation coordinator for the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife, says steelhead and salmon adults could start returning from the ocean to Pelton Dam in 2011.

He adds, however, that the fish will probably not return in large numbers for another four to five years.

Gauvin says the goal is to have 500 chinook and steelhead return each year. “We need to get closer to 750 to 1,000 a year to have a fishing season,� Gauvin says. “The longterm goal is to establish a harvestable, self-sustaining fishery.

We’ll need numbers above the 500 mark before we can establish a fishery.�

But just how long is long term? “I don’t want to venture too much of a guess (for when there could be a fishing season),�

Gauvin cautions. “But 15 to 20 years is a good hypothetical guess. More hypothetical than anything.�

From 2007 to 2009, ODFW biologists placed more than 2 million tiny steelhead and chinook salmon fry into rivers and creeks of the Upper Deschutes and Crooked River basins. Those

fry are now the smolts — young salmon and steelhead ready for their first trip to the ocean — that are arriving at the dam complex.

Gauvin says that once adult fish begin returning in large numbers, in perhaps 2012 or 2013, the ODFW will use them as a broodstock, from which biologists will take eggs to produce more fish with DNA fit to complete the life cycle. “Those (broodstock) fish will have proven they’re able to survive above the dam, migrate to the ocean and come back,�

Gauvin explains.

A returning fish will have an intact (not clipped) adipose fin, indicating that it is not to be harvested if caught by an angler. Also, a returning fish will be clipped on its upper jaw to indicate that it is a reintroduced salmon or steelhead. “We’re trying to give the fish a fighting chance to survive in the Deschutes River,� Gauvin says.

Since December of last year, biologists have collected about 1,800 chinook smolts at the Pelton facility, trucked them around the dam and released them into the Lower Deschutes. They have done the same with about 400 kokanee — which technically become sockeye salmon when they migrate to the ocean.

The chinook smolts are small, just about 100 to 300 millimeters in length. “That’s the right size for a smolt,� Gauvin says. “We’re excited to see the growth rate of these fish mimic what we see on the Deschutes.�

CENTRAL ZONE

CROOKED RIVER BELOW BOWMAN DAM: Population estimates from 2009 show an increase in redband populations and a decrease in whitefish populations; fishing is good. Dry fly action is increasing; however, nymphs are still providing the most success. Flows on the Crooked River are currently 77cfs.

Government Camp Wh ite R iver

DESCHUTES RIVER (Mouth to the Northern Boundary of the Warm Springs Reservation): Anglers can take advantage of these early spring days by targeting trout with dry flies. Look for blue-winged olive and caddis hatches during mid-day.

Stonefly nymphs will also start getting more active.

FALL RIVER: Fall River above the falls remains open to fly angling only. Probably the best fly fishing in the region right now with good hatches of bluewing olive, midges and tan caddis.

HAYSTACK RESERVOIR: Spring is often

OCHOCO CREEK UPSTREAM TO OCHOCO DAM: Local anglers should consider lunchtime outings, as hatches are strong in the noon hour.

Artificial flies and lures only; two trout per day and 8-inch minimum length.

OCHOCO RESERVOIR: Opportunities for 12- to 20-inch rainbow trout should improve with the warmer weather.

Island Point Sunset, tied by Capt. Manuel Torrez.

By Gary Lewis For The Bulletin

In the canyon, it is hard to remember the things that mattered so much yesterday — the goals for tomorrow.

Here, the river is timeless, basalt walls and the grass that lines the bank, the wind, the water. In cold water, steelhead pull back into softer water. In these conditions, pinks, reds and oranges seem to move more fish than other colors.

A swinging fly should have soft, flowing hackle that pulsates with the current. And a trailing hook is more likely to pin short-striking steel-

head. Here’s a pattern created

by Manuel Torrez, a fly that should work as well for September’s Coho salmon as it does for cold-water steelhead.

Tie the Island Point Sunset with pink thread on a 25mm Waddington shank. Connect the No. 1 Gamakatsu Octopus hook with 30-pound Spider Wire. Build the body with fuschia Lite Brite dubbing. For the rear hackle, use fuschia Spey hackle. Tying forward, wrap black Spey fly hackle and top with fuschia Spey. Finish with light pink Lite Brite dubbing and light pink Spey fly hackle.

head and chinook do return from the ocean, according to Gauvin, they could travel as far upstream as Big Falls on the Middle Deschutes, the headwaters of the Metolius, and Ochoco and Bowman dams on the Crooked River.

(The Deschutes, Crooked and Metolius rivers connect to form the three arms of Lake Billy Chinook.) “The anglers need to know

that this is a long-term process, but the benefits of it are going to be great,� Gauvin says. “The managers have really had to do it right and responsibly. It’s going to take awhile. Everyone is really encouraged, but all of us know it’s a long-term project.�

Rheuben and Dustin Kersavage took home the purple ribbons and the top prizes. The mutt, a half Griffin, half Australian shepherd didn’t come to the banquet and awards ceremony, but he was there in spirit.

Kersavage said that the only event that he did poorly in was fly-fishing. “I caught one and Rheuben caught all the rest,� Kersavage said.

In the GPS section, their team came in second. They were lucky in the draw that placed them last in line for the chukar hunt with plenty of birds on the ground.

They guessed correctly that the birds would group together and go to high ground. Their hunt was over in 15 minutes. “It was a lot of fun and we can’t wait to do it again.�

HOOD RIVER: Flows are good on the Hood River with good numbers of winter steelhead being caught by anglers. Spring weather has been warming the Hood and increasing catch rates as the water warms. The peak of the winter steelhead run on the Hood will be the end of March and beginning of April.

METOLIUS RIVER: Fishing has been up and down but is generally good.

There have been strong hatches of blue-wing olive and October caddis, with a few March Browns as well.

Scott Higdon shows off the big rainbow he caught at Alder Creek Lake near Sisters while competing in the Sportsmen’s Pentathlon last week.

Pentathlon Continued from D1 When the idea was floated by Sykes Mitchell, the plan began to take shape. South Valley Bank & Trust stepped in as the title sponsor and Keith and Connie Cyrus at Alder Creek Ranch offered the use of their property. A handful of other sponsors signed on.

At 7 a.m. this past Saturday, the two-man teams began to assemble at Alder Creek Ranch.

The teams would compete in 3-D archery, sporting clays, fly-fishing, chukar hunting and orienteering. The golf tournament would be held the next day.

Teams would take their combined scores from their three best events for a chance to earn the title of overall champions.

Teams were allowed two hours to fish the lake. Volunteers from the Fly Fisher’s Place in Sisters were on hand to offer assistance if assistance was needed. On the archery course, volunteers from Top Pin Archery coached newcomers to better scores.

A few of the competitors had never shot a shotgun before.

Spencer Tabor from Central Oregon Sporting Clays made sure they went away with a new skill to add to their repertoire. When competitors showed up to hunt chukar, they were assisted by Living Sky Outfitters.

Blake Miller, of Redmond, the owner of Outdoor Quest, designed and oversaw the orienteering/GPS course. “I thought the GPS event was going to be daunting,� Miller

said. “One guy crossed the finish line in 16 minutes. He just collapsed.�

That guy was Scott Higdon, of Bend. “I’m an avid fly fisherman,� he said. “Out of the five events we did, that was the only one that I thought I was really good at before the pentathlon.�

Javan Shull invited Higdon to join him on a team and in the month before the pentathlon, Higdon tried archery for the first time. “I absolutely loved it,� he said.

His next lesson was on the shotgun. “I just had a blast. I feel like it’s going to be a new hobby for me. “Bowhunting, shooting clays.

It was the most fun I’ve had in a long time. The coolest thing was it taught me more stuff I can do out there.�

Shull caught his first fish on a fly rod that day. “I set Javan up on a chironomid and indicator,� Higdon said. “His float kept going down and he was always late on the strike, so I set up with a chironomid, too, and cast out and five minutes later got a grab. I caught the first fish in about 10 minutes and then caught eight after that.�

Sykes Mitchell, of Living Sky Outfitters, was impressed by the competitors that came out to support the mission of 4-H in Deschutes County. “There were a lot of guys who thought they were going to win an event and didn’t,� Mitchell said. “But I was impressed by the gracious winners and losers. “We’re looking forward to adding some disciplines in the next one we do. It may become some-

thing more than just five events.

Some guys don’t own bows.

Some guys don’t own shotguns.

But you are scored on your best three events. We expect to see a women’s division next year and some father/son and father/ daughter teams.� “Two Guys and a Mutt� were named Overall Champions. Tom

The kind so clear that with the right light, it appears to glow, and you can see a hundred feet down to inspect the landscape below. Earlier this month, ful clarity — minus the bathing suits. And it’s only about an hour from Bend.

Clear Lake Resort is 55 miles from Bend, just off state Highway 126; near enough for a day trip, but far enough to make a weekend of it by camping or renting a cabin. The resort is open year-round, though in certain months it can be difficult to access, especially in years with normal snowfall. The lake is open only to non-motorized boats, making it a perfect place to explore the tranquil scenery on a canoe or rowboat.

My party arrived late on a Friday night, and the place looked nearly deserted. Fortunately, we’d planned ahead for our late arrival, calling the Linn County Parks & Recreation Department to get instructions. We were told to park near the boathouse, where the camp hosts live, and honk. After a short wait, the host appeared and cheerfully supplied us with our key and tokens to use for hot showers at the bathhouse, located just up the hill from our cabin.

Hint of summer on area trails

By David Jasper The Bulletin

TRAIL UPDATE

Due to the recent warm weather, area trails are starting to transition into summer conditions about three weeks earlier than usual, says Chris Sabo, trails specialist for the Deschutes National Forest.

West of U.S. Highway 97, the snow depth ranges from patchy to 8 inches at 4,500 feet, and 60 to 106 inches above 6,000 feet. Less than 50 percent of those depths can be expected east of the highway, he says.

Over the past week, area sno-parks

have received anywhere from zero to 5 inches of new snow, Sabo writes in his weekly report. Much of that snow has melted off at lower elevations where snoparks, such as Virginia Meissner, mostly lack adequate depth for safe use.

The forecast for the next several days includes a mix of weather conditions, from mild, clear springlike days to rain to a few inches of snow at the higher elevations.

The Phil’s Trail area is in good condition to Marvin’s Garden and on to the Deschutes River Trails, Sabo says.

Mom struggles to love daughter she dislikes

Great TV is blooming this spring

By Chuck Barney

Edie Falco stars in the dark comedy “Nurse Jackie’’ as a flawed emergency room nurse. Catch the second episode of Season 2 at 10 p.m.

Monday on Showtime.

Contra Costa Times

Dear Abby: I can’t stand my 10-year-old daughter. I was an 18-year-old single mother when she was born. I find her ugly and annoying. Everyone tells me how “sweet” and “pretty” she is, but I can’t see it. I dread when she comes home from school. I am not physically abusive to her — I would never do that. But I can be verbally abusive, and I know I need to stop. She just makes me so mad.

I am now married with two more kids (boys), and I adore them. What’s wrong with me?

How can I fix this? I’m afraid it’s too late. I have no spiritual adviser to talk to, and I can’t afford to speak to a professional counselor.

— Anonymous in Washington State Dear Anonymous: The circumstances of your daughter’s birth were very different from those of your sons. When you look at her, you may be reminded of a chapter in your life you would prefer to forget. How sad for both of you.

The way you treat her, particularly in relation to her half-brothers, will affect the way she perceives herself for the rest of her life. People whose parents treat them as unlovable often regard themselves as not “measuring up,” and it can cause self-esteem problems that last a lifetime.

Ordinarily, I would encourage you to seek low-cost therapy through your county department of mental health for the sake of both you and your daughter. If that isn’t possible, then I advise you to hold your tongue, control your temper and compel yourself to show your daughter approval and affection every day until it becomes a habit or she’s old enough to leave — whichever comes first.

Dear Abby: My workplace has instituted “casual dress Friday,” where everyone is supposed to make a donation to a charity selected by a different employee each fortnight. While this is nice in theory, I often find that I don’t

DEAR ABBY wish to donate to the chosen charity because I don’t agree with its ethics or its methods.

I give regularly to charities of my choice, which I have researched beforehand, but have never been one to donate automatically to every passing collection.

How do I bow out gracefully when the collection tin comes around? I have tried to explain to my co-workers why I don’t support a particular charity and simply say I have chosen not to participate. I am met with blank stares and demands that I explain myself, and lectures about why I must “support the team.”

I don’t feel my colleagues have any right to tell me what I should do with my money, but they obviously disagree and I am finding the situation very uncomfortable.

Any suggestions?

— Feeling Awkward in Australia Dear Feeling Awkward: The policy you describe seems more like “friendly” extortion than real charitable giving. (Is there some kind of contest going on between teams to see who can raise the most money?) While I’m all for casual Fridays, the policy of pressuring people to give strikes me as one that should be modified or done away with completely. That’s why I think you should discuss your feelings with your supervisor or the head of the department and go on record that you prefer to give your money to causes you have researched and with which you identify. If that doesn’t help, you may be working for the wrong company. Sorry, mate.

1. “Breaking Bad” 10 p.m. Sundays, AMC Poor, tortured Walt White (two-time Emmy-winning Bryan Cranston). How much more existential angst can he endure? As Season 3 starts, his wife (Anna Gunn) has left him and she’s about to discover that he’s a drug dealer.

Yes, “Breaking Bad” can bring the pain, but it does so in an artful, enthralling and even humorous style that makes it difficult to turn away.

2. “Lost” 9 p.m. Tuesdays, ABC There are times when I wonder if this island mystery is almost as ridiculous as it is audacious. The trippy time lines? The “sideways” flashes? The Indiana Joneslike temple of doom? Kooky Claire? It all gets to be a little much. Still, the show holds a strange, mostly unexplainable power over me, just as Locke holds some of the clueless castaways in his mighty, viselike grip. And with only a few episodes to go, I’m not about to bail out now.

Showtime via McClatchy-Tribune News Service

3. “Friday Night Lights” Returns 8 p.m. April 30, NBC As coach Taylor (Kyle Chandler) assumes his post at East Dillon High, the new setting and characters take some getting used to, but this cult favorite quickly finds its groove with stirring stories that explore race relations and the bonds between friends and family. “FNL” continues to provide more lump-in-the-throat moments than any other show.

4. “Modern Family” 9 p.m. Wednesdays, ABC Prime time’s funniest new show has made it safe to watch family sitcoms once again. And just when you think it’s heading into gooey territory, “Modern Family” snaps off a biting remark and/or clever insight.

5. “Glee” Returns 9 p.m. April 13, Fox Yes, it’s weird and wacky and often eye-rollingly over-the-top, but that’s exactly what we love about this classic high school underdog story. With “American Idol” proving to be a bummer so far this season, we desperately need a show that gets us off the

couch to bust a move and channel our inner Broadway diva.

6. “Justified” 10 p.m. Tuesdays, FX Prime time needs another crime show like a hole in the head. But there’s definitely room for this wry and offbeat series based on a character by created by the great Elmore Leonard.

Timothy Olyphant, who so often played second fiddle to Ian McShane in “Deadwood,” now has a chance to shine as a lawman who speaks softly, but carries a deadly sidearm.

7. “Damages” 10 p.m. Mondays, FX After jumping off the bandwagon in Season 2, I am again a Patty Hewes (Glenn Close) loyalist. This season’s investmentfraud case has a timely relevance, and the twisty plots and creepy cliffhangers often send chills down my spine. Yes, “Damages” still can frustrate us with its false clues and fake outs, but it more than makes up for its deficiencies with compelling performances, including stellar guest turns by Martin Short and Lily Tomlin.

9. “Nurse Jackie” 10 p.m. Mondays, Showtime Here we have the cure for the common medical show. Edie Falco is mesmerizing as the brutally flawed Jackie Peyton — a caustic caregiver with a drug habit and a workplace affair. Season 2 of this dark comedy is packed with consequences for Jackie, which only makes it more intriguing to watch one of television’s best actresses work her way in and out of trouble.

10. “Cougar Town” 9:30 p.m. Wednesdays, ABC Behold a show that’s smarter than its name implies — a sitcom pegged to the endearing Courteney Cox as a divorced real estate agent looking for love. At its worst, “Cougar Town” can be uneven and push the bounds of good taste. But at its best, it provides one laugh-out-loud moment after another and has a lot of interesting things to say about interpersonal relationships.

“The 10 Best TV Shows Right Now!” The headline on the March 12 issue of Entertainment Weekly leapt out at me.

I was struck by the live-in-themoment immediacy of it. The 10 best shows now. Not last week. Not a few months down the road. Not the best shows over the course of a year, or a season even.

The problem: Whenever someone publishes some kind of numerical list, they’re opening themselves up for debate.

Yes, we enjoy “The Good Wife,” but not quite as much as EW, which has it ranked No. 1.

Here’s my own Top 10 list, which might also spark a debate or two:

8. “The Good Wife” 10 p.m. Tuesdays, CBS I’ve been a fan of Julianna Margulies since her “ER” days, but my appreciation for her dramatic skills has risen to new heights while watching her nimble performance as the spouse of a disgraced politician (Chris Noth). Now, hubby is out of the slammer — on house arrest — and the awkward tension is palpable. Plus, there’s a law firm co-worker (Josh Charles) who has the hots for her.

Kate Gosselin offers fancy footwork

By Lisa de Moraes The Washington Post

Kate Gosselin’s still got it!

Performing to a bigger broadcast audience, the TLC realityshow luminary proved that she has the makings of a true Hollywood star when she catapulted ABC’s “Dancing With the Stars” to its biggest opening audience ever.

More than 24 million people watched the two-hour springseason debut Monday night, according The Nielsen Company.

America’s Most Put-Upon Mother, whose talents clearly have been squandered in the small-potatoes landscape of TLC’s “Jon & Kate Plus 8,” waltzed to the Billy Joel tune “She’s Always a Woman to Me” with professional dancer Tony Dovolani.

The latest Gosselin triumph outperformed last spring’s “Dancing” debut, which had been the show’s highest-rated debut ever, clocking around 11 million fans.

Mysteriously, Gosselin’s waltz received the third-lowest score from the show’s professional judges.

Trails Continued from E1 The Deschutes River Trails, from Entrada Lodge to Benham Falls, are reportedly snow-free and mostly in good condition.

Trails from Benham Falls West, upstream to Sunriver, have some soft to muddy sections with possible icy patches.

Sabo urges the public to avoid soft, muddy trails, which are prone to damage from early spring use. Likewise, access roads; Sabo urges folks “to

avoid driving on native surface and gravel roads that are soft and muddy and prone to serious damage from rutting. Road maintenance budgets are tight and many of these forest access roads do not receive annual maintenance and may become impassable from damage caused by early season use.”

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Thursday, March 25, 2010: This year, events often catch you off guard. Know that even if you are surprised, you are capable of handling whatever comes up. You are in the last year of a 12-year cycle. Often people let go of what doesn’t work in their lives. Stellar happenings might help isolate these areas. If you are single, romance can be passionate and exciting. Enjoy, but take your time making long-term commitments. If you are attached, share your challenges and desires more often with your significant other. The friendship between you is key. LEO displays passion.

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) HHHHH Though you might be hesitant, tap into your unusual creativity and dynamic energy.

What you believe is workable might not be, despite all efforts.

Your resourcefulness could make or break a situation.

Tonight: On top of your game.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH Stay centered and direct in your dealings. You could be on top of your game, despite some personal uproar and a need to reexamine an issue. Focus on work.

A move or change could be slated.

You wonder about the possibilities ahead. Tonight: Relax at home.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH Your style and way of handling others emerges. State your case with the full knowledge

of what you want. Investigate new possibilities with an open mind. Listen to feedback from others in a meeting.

Pressure builds within a partnership.

Tonight: Hang out with a friend.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH Be sensitive with your financial dealings. You might feel awkward and need a change. You could be overwhelmed by what is happening within a partnership. You are settling and might need to revamp a project more to another’s liking. Tonight: Treat yourself on the way home.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHHH Your energy could make you assertive to a point where others see you as pushy. Don’t be so efficient that you forget the role of charm, OK? Realize what is going on behind the scenes. Perhaps the less said the better. Tonight: As you like.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHH Feel comfortable taking a backseat. With all the strong personalities and opinions, this attitude works. Your creativity bubbles up in a conversation.

Choose the right moment for your feedback, and you’ll get the reaction you desire. Tonight: Get some extra sleep.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHHH You could be overwhelmed by a friend’s determination. Might it not be easier to let this person have his or her way? Difficulties occur when there are power plays.

Let others express themselves, their ideas and their direction.

Tonight: Only what you want.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Demands push you into action. The question remains: When

is enough enough? You will want to analyze more of your directions and choices. If you’re a boss, you could be a lot harder on your employees than you realize. Tonight: Burning the candle at both ends.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH You keep pushing to see the big picture. Whether you can achieve that goal remains to be seen.

Financial pressure pushes you to find an expert. Stop trying to solve the problem on your own. Tonight: Let your imagination choose.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Dealing with a demanding associate could test your patience and effectiveness. Back off and approach the situation again with a new attitude. More often than not, you’ll discover that what has worked for you in the past no longer does.

Go within before taking any action.

Tonight: Togetherness is the theme.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH You have your hands full as another person expresses his or her opinions in no uncertain terms.

You might want or need to step back some, especially if you are feeling hurt or put upon. Refuse to take a situation personally. Tonight: Listening to a suggestion doesn’t mean that you must take it.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Others drive a hard bargain. Many people you deal with right now want a lot from you.

Stop. Think about yourself. What can you handle and what is too much? If you can eliminate stress from your life, by all means do.

Tonight: Get some errands done. © 2009 by King Features Syndicate

ABOVE: Sahalie Falls is just minutes south of Clear Lake on state Highway 126.

AT LEFT: The shadow of a canoe with two paddlers can be seen from above, with reflections of trees and clouds on the surface of the water.

Clear Lake Continued from E1 We had rented a rustic cabin and weren’t quite sure what to expect. We knew we wouldn’t have indoor plumbing, but we were happy to discover that the hosts had started the heater earlier in the day, making for a cozy arrival. Inside the cabin, there was also a built-in, two-burner propane stove.

There were electric lights, but generator hours are restricted in the off months, so we made do with flashlights and candles while we settled in.

We knew to bring bedding, but once we started setting up, we wished we’d brought extra padding to put on top of the rubber sheets affixed to the mattresses, which prominent signs warned us not to remove.

Our small cabin was divided into three rooms with curtains for doors. It could accommodate six in two double beds and a fold-down futon in the main room, which was also furnished with a Formica table, four chairs and a few buckets to retrieve water from the spigots scattered around the grounds.

The resort is pet friendly (leashes required), so we also had two dogs in tow.

Out on the water Chattering birds woke us the following morning, and we were pleased to discover we could see a luminous, green strip of lake through the trees from the front porch of our cabin. As soon as everyone had eaten breakfast, we dressed in layers, loaded up our canoe with supplies and dogs, strapped on personal flotation devices and headed out onto the lake.

It was a sunny spring day, but still chilly. We gave stern directions to our furry canoe compan-

It’s the cold of the water, in fact, that makes the lake so beautiful. As I read in a packet I later picked up at the lodge, Clear Lake hovers just above freezing year-round, discouraging the growth of organisms that could cloud the waters or break down ancient trees submerged below.

Out on the water, we could see dead trees reaching up toward us from below, ghostly as shipwrecks. The literature also said the preserved trees were submerged more than 3,000 years ago.

In places where the sand at the bottom of the lake was light, we could watch our shadow on the floor of the lake, and see the ripples billowing in rings when we dunked our paddles into the water.

We hung close to shore, trying to get good photos of the birds, including uncommon ducks called Barrow’s goldeneyes. The male goldeneyes had purple-black heads with contrasting white markings. Their drab mates were a little less interesting to look at, except when they suddenly flipped up their backsides

to dive underwater for a snack.

We also saw geese, small brown and yellow pine siskins flitting in the bushes on the banks, and red crossbills, birds that use their splayed beaks to pick seeds out of pine cones.

The lake is oblong, about a mile from tip to tip, perhaps a half mile across at its widest point. A bottleneck separates a smaller northern part of the lake from the larger southern portion, and the resort’s Crockett Lodge, day use area and boat launch are located near the bottleneck.

Haven for hikers In addition to the amenities for boaters, there is a well-maintained trail all around the lake for hikers that links in to the McKenzie River National Recreation Trail.

I took a short walk along the Clear Lake Trail before we headed home Sunday, and according to the materials I picked up at the lodge, if I had continued on the trail I could have checked out the headwaters of the McKenzie River, the lava flow that abuts the lake to the east, and a log picnic shelter that was built in 1937 by members of the Civilian Conservation Corps, On the way home, we took a 10 minute detour and stopped at Sahalie Falls. The falls are down a short path from the parking area, and provide great views, a little spray and a perfect ending to a weekend with nature.

Under the coaching guidance of Dave Zimmerman, Ryan Davis, 11, a sixth-grader at Seven Peaks School, goes through a strength workout at Juniper Swim & Fitness Center in Bend.

Ryan Davis meets with his personal trainer at Juniper Swim & Fitness Center one or two times a week.

In the center’s weight room, he does squats on a balance ball, chest presses and core strengthening exercises. He sweats and he strains as he goes from machine to machine.

Ryan enjoys weight training, he said, and feels that it is making him stronger, particularly in his legs. It’s also helping to relieve heel pain that was exacerF I T N E S S bated through a football injury last fall.

Ryan is like many other Bendites who regularly hit the gym to lift weights and build muscle. The difference?

Ryan is 11.

Doing strength training with kids used to get a bad rap. A generation ago, medical experts counseled that strength training for children was, at best, ineffective and could be dangerous, perhaps stunting children’s growth.

Times have changed. These days, “no reputable medical organization does not endorse strength training,” said Avery Faigenbaum, professor in the department of health and exercise science at The College of New Jersey and the lead author of a recent set of guidelines on youth strength training for the National Strength and Conditioning Association.

DIETING INTERVENTION

Here are a few tips to help guide families to healthy eating

By Markian Hawryluk The Bulletin

Sure, opposites attract. But when one person in a household is trying to eat a healthy diet and another is throwing nutritional caution to the wind, it can be a source of frustration. And efforts to try to force dietary changes, however well-intentioned, will only result in a figurative — and maybe even literal — food fight.

NUTR “Really no matter how hard we want to or how hard we try, we can’t control other people’s behavior, only our own” said Bethany Thayer, a registered dietitian in Detroit and spokeswoman for the American Dietetic Association. “So if somebody else doesn’t want to change their behavior, there isn’t really anything you can do, other than role model what you hope to see in others.”

Frankie Mauti, a registered dietitian at St. Charles Bend, often counsels patients on dietary changes after one of them has received a medical diagnosis requiring them to make a change.

She’s noticed that in older couples it’s the wife who is more willing to make changes to the family diet. But in younger couples, it’s often the opposite. She agrees that nagging, threats or other coercion simply isn’t going to work.

“Any sort of external pressure or nagging or monitoring of food from the other person usually just causes animosity or rebellion,” she said.

“That’s with kids or parents.”

But both agree that a spouse, ITION roommate or partner can be a tremendous help when somebody wants to improve his or her diet. They suggested the following approaches: • Express yourself.

Making dietary changes can be trying.

“Make sure your loved one knows you’re willing and able to offer support,” Thayer said.

Maybe they need you to take over meal planning or perhaps they’d benefit if you didn’t snack in front of the TV. Let your partner tell you what you can do to help.

M Ask yourself, what’s in your lipstick?

Some ingredients in cosmetics can cause irritation, so here’s what to watch out for

By Alexia Elejalde-Ruiz Chicago Tribune

CHICAGO — We turn to cosmetics to look our very best, but sometimes all that lathering, slathering, powdering and painting can do more harm than good.

Certain ingredients in personal care products can cause redness, itching, swelling, acne and other reactions in people who are sensitive to them. Preservatives, fragrances and dyes are common culprits.

Some people are allergic to specific ingredients, but more commonly the problem is irritation, which can happen to anyone. Either way, it’s wise to keep an eye on the ingredients you’re smearing on your skin.

“The bottom line is that if you get a rash, you just have to stop using that product, and when you go to the store to buy another lotion, compare the ingredients and make sure they’re not exactly the same,” said Dr. Ella Toombs, a Washington-based dermatologist and former office director for cosmetics and colors at the Food and Drug Administration. “Or go to a dermatologist to see what component might have been causative.”

Ingredient lists often look like gobbledygook to consumers, so it takes research and experimentation to identify the offending substance.

Christopher Drummond, who developed bad acne during the eight years he worked as a print and catalog model, said it was through trial and error he determined his makeup’s mineral oil was to blame.

“Mineral oil does work well to bind the ingredients together, and it feels good, but it’s very pore clogging,” Drummond said.

“It’s like putting plastic wrap over your face.”

Hoping natural products would be better, Drummond turned to dye- and preservative-free mineral makeup, but found it made his skin itch — which he traced to bismuth oxychloride.

Avoid these Drummond, who last year launched his own organic-based cosmetics line under his name, said navigating the ingredient

“The bottom line is that if you get a rash, you just have to stop using that product, and when you go to the store to buy another lotion, compare the ingredients and make sure they’re not exactly the same.”

— Dr. Ella Toombs, dermatologist minefield can be overwhelming, so to simplify, he has made a list of five substances he avoids at all costs.

His hit list includes artificial colorants, artificial fragrance, petroleum (such as mineral oil), parabens (a widely used preservative) and phthalates (often found in fragrance to help hold scent).

Unfortunately, reading the product label doesn’t always tell you everything that’s inside.

While the FDA requires companies to list all intentional ingredients, it doesn’t require them to list byproducts, such as formaldehyde, or the ingredients in fragrance, considered trade secrets.

Fragrances can contain dozens of ingredients, many of them irritants, but all that’s listed on the label is the word “fragrance.”

Consumers also should be wary of products marketed as “natural,” “organic,” “dermatologist-tested,” or “hypoallergenic,” as the FDA doesn’t have standards for those claims and doesn’t require companies to substantiate them.

Even “fragrance-free” doesn’t always mean what it seems: the product may contain fragrance ingredients to mask an unpleasant odor.

Few federal rules While the FDA prohibits the marketing of adulterated or misbranded cosmetics, the agency doesn’t test or approve cosmetics before they go on the market (with the exception of color additives).

It’s up to the cosmetics com-

WHAT PARENTS WANT TO KNOW

Pediatrician provides answers about care

By Diane Cowen Houston Chronicle

Dr. Jennifer Trachtenberg sees plenty of new parents in her pediatrics practice in New York.

They’re usually overwhelmed, unsure of what to do when their child is sick, or just paralyzed by too much information.

Determined to provide the basics, she’s written “The Smart Parent’s Guide to Getting Your Kids Through Checkups, Illnesses, Accidents” (Free Press; $16) to help parents navigate the health care system and be an advocate for their children.

“New parents don’t have hindsight,” Trachtenberg said. “They want to have all the information, and that’s when they become overwhelmed. They get so terrified they don’t do anything and, sometimes, not making a decision is making a decision.”

Trachtenberg’s book is like a printed version of taking a big, deep breath.

Here are six things Trachtenberg mentions: DOCTOR VISITS: The 15-20 minutes you get during a visit to the doctor is precious oneon-one time. Arrive with a list of questions so you don’t forget anything and ask them at the beginning of the visit rather than at the end when the doctor may be rushing out to see the next patient. Don’t leave until you understand everything the doctor has told you.

COLDS ARE COMMON: Don’t rush to ask for antibiotics every time your child coughs or sneezes. Antibiotics won’t do a thing

for a cold virus, and overuse of this drug can diminish their effect when you really do need them.

BPAs: By now, most parents know not to use bottles or containers made with Bisphenol A. Not sure what does and doesn’t have BPAs? Trachtenberg offers this mnemonic device: “5, 4, 1, 2, all the rest are bad for you.”

(Look on the bottom of your bottle or container for a triangle with a number in it. Stick with those bearing the numbers 5, 4, 1 or 2.)

VACCINATIONS AND AUTISM: Trachtenberg, the mother of a son with autism, urges all parents to follow through on traditional childhood vaccinations.

The notion that vaccinations cause or contribute to autism is driven by fear, not science, she says.

THE RIGHT ER: Know in advance which hospitals or urgent care centers are equipped to treat children. Trachtenberg cited a National Institutes of Health study that showed 94 percent of ERs don’t have necessary equipment — we’re talking basics such as oxygen masks, intubation tubes, smaller needles and blood pressure cuffs — to treat children. How do you find out?

Call them and ask.

IN THE HOSPITAL: If your child needs to be hospitalized, be fully engaged in the process. Have a notebook on hand and keep track of everything that happens to your child. Know what each day’s health goals are and who’s in charge of your child’s care.

Ingredients to watch for in cosmetics Dr. Ella Toombs, a Washingtonbased dermatologist, offered a list of some ingredients that can be problematic.

Quaternium-15 (a formaldehydereleasing preservative) Fragrance Hair dyes • p-phenylenediamine; toluene-2; 5-diamine; p-aminophenol • Lanolin (a lubricant) • Cocamidopropyl betaine (found in some bath preparations) Eye makeup • Parabens (methylparaben, ethylparaben, propylparaben, butylparaben); nickel; cobalt; chromate Facial makeup: • D&C red, 19, 31, 36 Eye cream, lipstick: • D&C yellow 11 Nail polish: • Tosylamide formaldehyde resin (sometimes causes eyelid rashes when people scratch their face)

panies themselves to make sure their products and the ingredients in them are safe.

To that end, the Cosmetic Ingredient Review, an independent panel of experts funded by the industry trade group Personal Care Products Council, reviews some 250 ingredients each year to determine their safety.

If the panel finds an ingredient causes irritant or allergic reactions, it recommends a limit on the concentration that’s considered safe and disseminates the information to manufacturers, said CIR director Alan Andersen.

Known irritants Common ingredients that are known irritants include sodium lauryl sulfate, used to produce the lather in soaps and shampoos, and quaternium-15, a preservative that releases formaldehyde and can cause allergic reactions, Andersen said. The CIR has set concentration limits on both.

A chemical found in most hair dyes called paraphenylenediamine (or p-phenylenediamine, or PPD), is another common allergen. It can be particularly dangerous when used in dark henna

tattoos, as extended exposure to the skin can cause scarring, Andersen said.

Some health advocates worry that, in addition to causing irritant or allergic reactions, certain ingredients may be harmful long term.

The Campaign for Safe Cosmetics, a coalition of nonprofits including the Breast Cancer Fund and the Environmental Working Group, has fingered parabens, which mimic estrogen and have been found in breast cancer tumors, and phthalates, which are linked to male reproductive problems, as particularly worrisome.

The FDA says the levels of lead, parabens and phthalates found in cosmetics are so low they wouldn’t pose a risk, but activists worry about the cumulative effect of using multiple products.

“We’re concerned about the repeated chronic exposure to these chemicals,” said Stacy Malkan, co-founder of the campaign and author of “Not Just a Pretty Face: The Ugly Side of the Beauty Industry.”

Malkan’s best advice to consumers: “Simplify. Choose products with fewer ingredients, and choose fewer products overall.”

Nursing a baby may lower risk of obesity

By Shari Roan Los Angeles Times

Newborn mice who receive their mother’s milk experience a biological process that boosts their metabolism, possibly lowering the risk of obesity and diabetes in adulthood, according to a new study.

Breast-feeding confers several protective benefits in human babies. Some research suggests, for example, that breast-fed babies have a lower risk of obesity and diabetes later in life. The new study sheds light on a littleknown process that takes place just after birth in mice.

Researchers in Spain found that suckling the mother’s milk prompts the newborn’s liver to produce a molecule that then turns on heat-generating brown fat. That process helps the baby’s body adapt to a lower environmental temperature than it experienced inside the mother’s womb.

The protein that is released in response to suckling, called FGF21, also appears to be important in regulating metabolism. In the study, researchers injected the protein into fasting newborn mice and found that the treatment prompted heat generation within brown fat and boosted body temperature. These brown fat cells burned more energy and glucose. Recent studies in humans have found that greater activity

Breast-feeding may help boost metabolism in newborns, a new study shows. in brown fat appears to protect against obesity.

“There are many evidences that alterations of dietary, genetic, environmental, or other origin in the metabolic performance during the fetal and early neonatal life can make an individual prone to develop diabetes and obesity in adulthood,” the lead author of the study, Francesc Villarroya, of the University of Barcelona, said in a news release. “It will be important to know whether any disturbance in this naturally occurring event (the burst of FGF21) may have negative consequences in adulthood.”

Researchers still don’t know yet if this process observed in mice is similar in human newborns. The study is published in the journal Cell Metabolism.

When it comes to sleep, few of us get enough

By Alexia Elejalde-Ruiz Chicago Tribune

Sleep deprivation, it turns out, is colorblind.

The National Sleep Foundation, a Washington-based nonprofit that promotes sleep health, released its annual “Sleep in America” poll this month. The poll of 1,000 Americans ages 25 to 60, who were asked to identify as white, black, Hispanic or Asian, was meant to examine how cultural differences push the physiological boundaries.

NSF Board Chairman Thomas Balkin cited one overarching similarity among the ethnic groups: A fifth to a quarter of the respondents across the board said they missed work or family functions, or went without sex, because they were too sleepy.

“This reflects the power and influence of the larger U.S. culture,” said Balkin, chief of the department of behavioral biology at Walter Reed Army Institute of Research. “Regardless of ethnic backgrounds, we’re not getting enough sleep.”

Survey says ...

Some of the poll’s findings: Kept awake by financial, employment, personal relationship or health concerns Blacks: 33% Hispanics: 38% Whites: 28% Asians: 25% Rarely or never have a good night’s sleep Blacks: 15% Hispanics: 14% Whites: 20% Asians: 9% Use sleep medication at least a few nights a week Blacks: 9% Hispanics: 8% Whites: 13% Asians: 5%

issues. “What we’re seeing and what I’ve been seeing is there isn’t a lot of physical activity” in schools or at home.

Even for children who are active, strength training can have benefits, proponents say. Engaging in weight-bearing physical activity — which encompasses strength training as well as a variety of activities in which the body must support its own weight — strengthens bones.

“It’s particularly important for young girls,” said Faigenbaum, “because of their later risk for osteoporosis.”

Continued from F1 Strength training, also called resistance training or weight training, is basically lifting weights. Sometimes the weight is quite literal, a dumbbell or weighted machine; other times the weight can be a person’s body weight or something that is being pulled. Most people do strength training to build muscle.

Though children have long engaged in some forms of resistance training — think push-ups or a game of tug of war — it had until recently been relegated to a small corner of kids’ fitness.

Aerobic exercise was thought to be the most important form of exercise for kids. But with the recognition that strength training can be beneficial and that not all children like aerobic activity, the exercise is becoming more popular. Local personal trainers as well as gyms nationally report an increase in the number of kids they see, often coming in to use weights.

With more kids participating, the question has arisen about whether using weights is an effective mode of exercise for children. The answer, said Faigenbaum, is an unequivocal yes.

“There have been volumes of data over the last few years, and it’s just compelling,” he said. “Not only is strength training safe but it offers observable health and fitness value.”

Benefits for kids Children can realize many of the same benefits of strength training that adults do: stronger muscles, less fat and more resilient bones.

A recent study from researchers in Australia, published in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, found that kids who were overweight significantly reduced their body fat percentage after an eight-week training program.

Resistance training is “proven to help regulate and change body composition,” said Monica McClain-Smith, fitness coordinator at Juniper in Bend. Body composition, she said, is one of the primary measures of fitness.

Strength training can be especially helpful for children who are overweight or obese. In their paper, the Australian researchers pointed out that many of these children do not enjoy aerobic exercise, and weight training may be a way to promote physical activity in this group.

Indeed, in Bend, Elizabeth Goodheart, a personal trainer at Rebound Sports Performance, said most of her young clients come in to help deal with weight

Supervision and other precautions Though there are measurable benefits, those who work with children stress the need for some precautions. Children cannot be treated as mini-adults.

The biggest change is the way many of the workouts are conducted. “With youths, the motivation is so much different,” said Goodheart. “They don’t necessarily want to lose weight and have a healthier lifestyle. It’s more about the fun factor.”

Trainers said in workouts they stress the social aspect of exercise to try to keep kids engaged. For Ruth Ann Clarke, a personal trainer at WRP Training Studio in Bend who used to run a strength training program at Skyview Middle School, that meant turning training into a game. There, she said she would do “little contests to see who could do the most sit-ups and push-ups. They loved that.”

She said it was important to keep the workouts fun and lively, interspersing games in with the more tedious exercises such as lifting weights. “Their attention spans aren’t quite as big as adults.”

As with adults, children need to be taught the proper form for individual exercises. Kids may have a little bit harder time doing exercises correctly, said Shannah Werner, a personal trainer at Peak Training, because they don’t have the same coordination and awareness of their body’s movements that adults do. “You just really have to watch their form a little more.”

The need for constant supervision is another big difference in training for kids. Even older children need to have an adult close by when they engage in strength training.

The boys in particular, said Clarke, “had a tendency to overdo it. They would see their dad or someone else do these big squats or overhead presses” and want to emulate it. “You had to keep your eye on them all the time because the minute you turn around, they will go and try

to grab that big weight.”

Kids are most often getting hurt in the weight room by picking up a weight that is too heavy and dropping the weights on their fingers or toes, said Faigenbaum. Accidents, not overuse problems such as pulled muscles, are the most common injuries, he said.

The potential for injury, Faigenbaum said, is why the recent guidelines he helped put together emphasize that youth strength training programs must be supervised. “I do not support strength training at home without supervision,” he said. “You need to take sensible precautions.”

SIT-UPS

Lifelong habits As with other types of activity, developing good habits that kids can carry into adulthood is key.

With childhood obesity rates at unprecedented levels, any exercise that a child enjoys is good exercise, many say.

“What we’re really trying to do is spark a lifelong interest in physical activity,” said Faigenbaum. He said studies show that kids who weight train are more likely to do other forms of physical activity.

McClain-Smith said that in recognition of the benefits of strength training for kids, Juniper started Teen Time, a time when adolescents ages 12 to 15 are allowed in the gym and a trainer is stationed to help them.

(Teens ages 16 and older are always allowed in the gym.)

The younger teens have to take an orientation where trainers emphasize the proper use of equipment and how to train for your strength, said McClainSmith. “We teach them about the components of fitness, so they understand it’s not just about muscle strength.”

Werner said her aim when she did training for kids was to make sure they wanted to come back.

“You make it more play than you

do formal strength training,” she said. “If you make it fun, they are much more likely to enjoy it.”

Faigenbaum said that developing a love for exercise should be the primary goal of any program. “When you put it in that perspective, you become less interested in loading up the barbell and more interested in creating a fun, positive experience for kids.”

The formula everyone always hears about weight loss is “calories in, calories out” — burn more calories than the number you consume, and you’ll slim down. That’s why you’ll see folks carefully scrutinizing the digital displays of their elliptical machines to determine exactly how much they’ve accomplished over the past hour.

But for a better figure, you should be thinking about another figure: How many calories are you burning after you hit the showers?

Tanya Colucci, the wellness director at Mint Fitness in Washington, has a way to keep torching through calories even the next day. “Get your muscular system to do as much as possible in a short period of time,” says Colucci, who also is president of the Infinity Wellness Foundation, which is dedicated to fighting childhood obesity.

The method, called Metabolic Density Training (MDT), takes two forms. You can pick a couple of exercises — say, deadlifts and stability ball push-ups — and perform each for a minute, constantly switching back and forth with minimal rest for as long as you can manage. Or, you can string together a series of total-body exercises that require explosive power in addition to strength. (For example, a single-arm dumbbell split snatch: Start in a squat holding the weight down in one hand, then jump into a lunge while lifting the weight above your head.) With those, you

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.

— Well, hello hips. Nice to meet you.

You think you know these vital parts of your body fairly well. You take them to yoga class, you take them for walks, you talk pretty to them. But one Zumba class later and you realize something’s been missing. A good wiggle here. A shake and a bump there.

Zumba what?

Zumba is an aerobic fitness

class with bumping beats and mostly Latin dance steps. Not only will you get a workout, but if you’re dying to dance and there’s no dance club around, this is the next best thing.

“Zumba is, for me, a feel-it-tothe-core best Latin dance party,” said Dorie Wexler, owner of Springs Salsa and Dance Fitness Studios and amazingly fluid hips.

There are several reasons Zumba appeals to people, Wexler said. It could be the festive music

with beats that make your body naturally want to move. It could be the freedom to not have to do the exact pattern on the Reebok step. You can make it up as you go if your feet aren’t doing exactly the same thing as the teacher’s.

“I love to dance. And if I can find an aerobic way to exercise through dance, I do it,” said student Jerianne Heimendinger, before taking her third class Friday.

Oh, and the key to moving those hips? Bend the knees.

go for a certain number of reps rather than time, and once you get through the grueling routine, you do it again and again.

This structure may sound similar to circuit training, but the difference with MDT is the intensity. Instead of using moderate weights and getting an aerobic effect, you’re relying on heavy weights to achieve an anaerobic one. That means you can’t keep it up for nearly as long — 20 to 30 minutes at most — and you’re burning more calories both during the workout and beyond.

Every bout of strenuous physical activity creates some sort of afterburn effect. The technical term is excess post-exercise oxygen consumption, or EPOC. “The more intense the exercise is, the longer it takes the body to come down to a resting state,” she explains.

Nothing is more intense than MDT, which is why it’s certainly not for everyone. Colucci introduces only her most advanced clients to the technique. “If you hate sprinting all-out, it’s that feeling the majority of the workout,” she says.

Given what you can accomplish in such a short period of time, though, Colucci’s found that it’s ideal for people with busy schedules looking to “kick it up a notch” — including her. You can take a look at a sample workout on her Web site (tanyacolucci. wordpress.com/2009/11/12) or find similar routines at Crossfit. com.

However you do it, just be sure to end with a cooldown. It’s the calories you want to keep burning for days, not your muscles.

F The ancient art of walking — outdoors

By Sam McManis McClatchy-Tribune News Service

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — In 1951, Ray Bradbury published a short story, “The Pedestrian,” set in a totalitarian world circa 2050, in which no one walks the streets for pleasure or purpose.

No one except the story’s titular hero, Mr. Leonard Mead. He strolls the sidewalks in early evening, looking into windows with only “the faintest glimmers of firefly light” — the flicker of primetime television. To be ambulatory in such a milieu draws suspicion and, eventually, the police.

“What are you out doing?” the police ask Mead.

“Walking.”

“Walking where? For what?”

“Walking for air. Walking to see.”

The man ends up in the “Psychiatric Center for Research on Regressive Tendencies.”

This is the stuff of fanciful fiction, Bradbury’s dystopian musings. It could never really happen, right?

And yet ...

In July, Long Branch, N.J., police answered a call about a suspicious-looking person walking in a suburban neighborhood in a light rain. The man had stopped on the sidewalk to look at a house for sale.

The officer, Kristie Buble, asked the aging pedestrian, his curly salt-and-pepper hair partly covered by a hood, his purpose in the neighborhood.

“Walking,” the man said.

She asked his name.

“Bob Dylan.”

She asked for identification. He had none. The officer put Dylan, 68, in the back of the squad car and took him back to a nearby hotel parking lot, where the legendary musician’s tour buses were parked, so he could present valid ID. Once Dylan’s character was vouched for, police Sgt. Michael Ahart asked him what in the world he was doing roaming city streets hours before his scheduled concert in a nearby town.

“I just felt like going for a walk,” Dylan said.

Confined So maybe we don’t live in a world yet where it’s illegal to walk for pleasure, to wander and wonder without a specific destination or an aerobically correct stride.

But it seems that walking — so elemental, so primal — now is seen by some as uncommon, if not unnatural. We rush to work or to the store in cars, and if we notice stray pedestrians as we whiz by, we presume they are walking because their doctor prescribed exercise and they can’t afford a treadmill, or their car broke down and they’re forced to hoof it, or they live just down the street.

We also confine nature walking to hikes on well-maintained

trails in bucolic places. As Geoff Nicholson writes in “The Lost Art of Walking” (Riverhead, $24.95, 288 pages), a 2009 book of essays, “Most people who want to walk in nature want to walk in a very specific version of it. ... They want to walk in managed nature, which is probably just as well, since nothing else is currently available to us.”

At the risk of going all Thoreau, permit me to share a dismaying recent sight: a line of treadmill walkers at my health club in Davis, looking like so many automatons staring at TV sets mounted on walls, while just outside, nature offered a gorgeous spring day with miles of trails and farmland to walk.

Treadmill users, especially women who do not walk in groups, will counter that they feel safer walking indoors. If true, it’s a fact of modern urban life to be mourned.

“Just as it demeans life to live alongside a great river you can no longer swim in or drink from, to be crowded into safer areas and hours takes much of the gloss off walking — one sport you shouldn’t have to reserve a time and a court for,” writer Edward Hoagland mused.

Walking in midtown Sacramento can be a sensory joy: the aroma of ethnic restaurants, the personal touches on front porches of well-maintained Victorian homes, the cute little boutique you failed to see while driving on J Street.

Yes, there’s a flip side: the stench of alleys, dilapidated, empty storefronts, sketchy sidewalk characters. But urban walking advocates such as Anne Geraghty of Walk Sacramento call midtown a jewel awaiting pedestrians and a model for less-walking-friendly suburbs to emulate via “retrofitting.” She sees walking as a social lubricant, a way to connect people who spend too much time hermetically sealed in cars with windows rolled up, air conditioning blowing and radio blasting.

“I had a friend once who had been my Realtor years before,” Geraghty recalls. “I had been meaning to visit for years. Every time I’d drive by her house, I’d think of it but keep going. One day, I happened to be walking by her house and I decided, ‘You know, I’m going to go visit her now.’ It was such a treat. And she died (shortly thereafter). I was glad I did that.”

Walking gear The great thing about walking is that you don’t need much to do it, not necessarily even shoes, if you’re game to go barefoot.

But here are accessories for the activity, with some frugal and expensive examples.

STICKS Randy Pench / Sacramento Bee

Walking, like along this trail in Sacramento, Calif., gives a chance to look and listen to the things around you while giving your body gentle exercise. communing with nature and, yes, fitness.

He says walking helps him “achieve a state of mind that is truly effortless awareness.”

To be an effortless walker, though, takes some effort.

“If you’re walking to take consciousness to the level of reaching the senses, to fully be present in terms of hearing, seeing, smelling, it does take some practice,” he says. “Our mind likes to dwell on things that aren’t real, such as what am I going to do next week, or dwell on the past. You need to

be wholly present when you’re walking if you want to draw in all the experience.”

Many religious rituals include contemplative walking. Taoists practice Baguazhang, walking in circles for enlightenment. Islam has its pilgrimage to Mecca. A Buddhist temple in Oregon holds a yearly “Meditation Marathon” walking relay for 26.2 hours.

(Community members take turns circumambulating a labyrinth for 15 minutes.) Christian labyrinths are popular in France.

The moralist philosopher Jean

Jacques Rousseau wrote one of his singular works, “Reveries of the Solitary Walker,” a meditation on God, politics and the nature of happiness, on rambles he called “charming periods of contemplation.”

But even the godless can find inspiration in a good walk. No less a personage than Friedrich (“God is dead”) Nietzsche famously declared, “All truly great thoughts are conceived by walking.”

Provided, of course, he wasn’t stopped for questioning by a Swiss constable.

VITAMINS TAKE YOUR VITAMINS: A regular look at the sources and benefits of vitamins and minerals.

Vitamin D Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that has shown great promise in improving health. It is needed for normal absorption of calcium and phosphorus, critical for strong bones and teeth. When exposed to sunlight, the skin creates a compound that the liver and kidneys convert into vitamin D. Yet many people don’t get enough vitamin D from sunlight, either because of the regular use of sunscreens or because they don’t spend enough time outdoors. In most parts of the world, you’d need only 15 minutes of sunlight a day on unprotected faces and arms to manufacture enough vitamin D. People who live north of the line drawn between San Francisco and Philadelphia need to spend more time in sunlight, particularly in winter months.

Many people remain deficient, despite fortification of dairy and grains with vitamin D. There are few good sources of vitamin D in unfortified foods.

In extreme cases, lack of vitamin D can weaken bones, a condition known as rickets in children and osteomalacia in adults. Over time, low vitamin D levels — which affects one in four people worldwide — can lead to loss of bone mass and osteoporosis later in life.

Studies suggest vitamin D may have a significant impact on health. Researchers believe that multiple sclerosis, Type 1 diabetes and even cold and flu prevalence might be in some way linked to low vitamin D levels. A recent study found that people who take vitamin D supplements between 400 and 800 international units per day had a 7 percent lower rate of death from any cause. The current recommended daily allowance of vitamin D is set at 200 IU from birth to age 50, and 400 IU for older adults. But many clinicians believe a dose of 1,000 IU is optimal for adults and 400 IU for children.

The upper safe limit has been set at 2,000 IU. Vitamin D toxicity can occur with higher levels of intake.

Daily recommended amount: Children (0-18): 200 IU Adults (ages 19-50): 200 IU Adults (older than 50): 400 IU Good sources: Salmon (cooked, 3 oz.): 320 IU Sardines (canned in oil, 3 oz.): 240 IU Milk (fortified, 1 cup): 100 IU

WHAT’S WHAT WITH PISTACHIOS?

Continued from F1 • Set some parameters.

Mauti recommends having a frank discussion about what your partner is willing to do. Perhaps it’s as simple as getting the tempting foods out of the house or agreeing to eliminate one sort of dietary vice.

“So getting to some sort of an agreement,” Mauti said.

“I’m not willing to do this, but let’s not have soda in the house, or we’ll no longer keep candy dishes around. It’s having that discussion within a family. Where are there lines that can be drawn to support someone trying to make changes.”

• Guard the gate.

In most households, there’s a single person who usually buys the food and does the cooking. The decisions that gatekeeper makes, therefore, have ramifications for the entire household.

“I can tell you, when my mother-in-law goes on a diet, my father-in-law loses weight,” Thayer said.

By not bringing unhealthy foods into the house, the gatekeeper can easily upgrade the diets of the entire family. “It’s another step for you to have to get in the car and go someplace and purchase it,” she said.

• Have a family meal.

You’d be surprised how much better your diet will be simply by making this one simple choice. Studies show that families who sit down to eat together tend to have healthier meals than when everybody fends for themselves.

“That’s something that can be done easily, especially if you have kids in the house,”

Mauti said. “You’re not even talking about the types of food, you’re not nagging. You’re saying, ‘This is something that’s important.’”

• Hide your snack foods.

“If for some reason you feel like you have to have some sort of snack food or something in the house, it really seems to help if you hide it,” Thayer said. Put it in the back of the cupboard behind the cereal boxes or bury it deep in the freezer.

“It seems very silly, people say, ‘I know it’s there,’” she said. “But really, we’re very visual. And if you don’t see it, you might not think to grab for it.”

• Find alternative activities.

“Often our hobbies and traditions or rituals are all around food,” Mauti said. That could mean passing up movie night with popcorn and soda for a night of dancing, or going for a bike ride instead of out for pizza

and beer.

“It’s not saying I want to restrict your food intake, but more of what can we include that’s healthy, that we can both do and not being about food,” she said.

• Make healthy choices easy.

Leave bowls of pre-washed fruit, such as grapes or cherries, on the kitchen counter. Cut celery and carrot sticks to make healthy snacking easy. Make a batch of unsalted, unbuttered popcorn.

Offer to cook a healthy dinner from scratch.

• Make small changes.

“What is see in general is people are the most successful when they start to have this inner motivation to make a change and they start to slowly make changes,” Mauti said. “It’s not really rigid.”

Individuals who take a small step, say replacing sugary soda with water, and lose a little bit of weight are encouraged by the

LOS ANGELES — When American kids reflect upon their childhoods decades from now, snacks may figure more prominently in their memories — and around their waists — than meals shared around a table.

From 1977 to 2006, American children have added 168 snack calories per day to their diets, a study finds. They’re munching cookies after school, granola bars on the way to piano lessons, chips after an hour of soccer practice and peanut butter and crackers while waiting for dinner.

For some, those extra 1,176 calories a week could amount to as much as 13½ pounds of body fat a year.

Those non-meal noshes now account for more than a quarter of their average daily caloric intake, said Barry Popkin of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, author of the study published Tuesday in the journal Health Affairs.

The research establishes just how much the omnipresence of snacks — and the $68 billion-a-year industry that sells them — has contributed significantly to an epidemic of excess weight among U.S. children.

But even as public health officials remove sodas and fatand salt-laden snacks from school vending machines, parents hoping to roll back the tide of snacking face some daunting challenges, including a food industry dedicated to satisfying the nation’s voracious between-meal appetite with snack wraps, burger bites and miniature candy bars marketed as midafternoon pick-me-ups.

Pediatrics, said the study’s findings pointed to one of many factors that had pushed the nation’s rate of child obesity to 16.4 percent in 2007 — an increase of roughly 10 percent since 2003 alone.

“We see milk intake and meal intake are going down; the consumption of fatty and salty foods is going up. Everybody is very busy, on the go all the time, not having three meals at home,” Palfrey said. American families need to “think about healthier replacements” for between-meals food, she says, and they need to hear those messages from their children’s physicians.

“Remember the days when we used to get quartered oranges? Bring those back!” Palfrey added.

In 1977, just under 75 percent of kids between 2 and 18 consumed at least one snack between meals, according to the new study, which tallied the responses of 31,337 children and adolescents to four federally funded food surveys. In 2006, the proportion of kids who snack reached 98 percent.

That surge in snacking has pushed kids’ overall intake of daily calories to an average of 2,099 a day — up by 100 calories a day since 1977, the survey reports. By 2006, 27.3 percent of the total calories — just under 600 calories a day — came in the form of snacks, the North Carolina research team found.

Meanwhile, calories consumed at mealtimes have begun to slide slightly since the last food survey was conducted in 1994. The result: U.S. children are consuming more fatty, sugary and salty foods and less of the dairy, protein and produce that predominate at mealtime.

Sweet snacks such as cookies, cereal bars and cakes continue to supply the largest share of snacking calories, but the number of calories consumed in salty snacks such as popcorn, crack-

ers and chips more than doubled from 1977 to 2006, the study found.

Study co-author Carmen Piernas, a researcher at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, said very active kids could burn snack calories through growth and physical activity, but children who are inactive, whose growth has slowed or whose diet is otherwise high in fat, will pack more of those calories not as muscle but as fat.

The snacking habit starts early, she added: Children ages 2 to 6 had the highest rate of snacking of all the groups surveyed.

The undersigned hereby certifies that he has no knowledge of any assignments of the Trust Deed by the Trustee or by the Beneficiary or any appointments of a Successor Trustee other than the appointment of JEFFREY C. GARDNER, as Successor Trustee as recorded in the property records of the county in which the Property described above is situated.

Further, the undersigned certifies that no action has been instituted to recover the debt, or any part thereof, now remaining secured by the Trust Deed. Or, if such action has been instituted, it has been dismissed except as permitted by ORS 86.735(4). The name and address of Successor Trustee are as follows: Jeffrey C. Gardner, Successor Trustee, c/o Ball Janik LLP, 101 SW Main Street, Suite 1100, Portland, Oregon 97204-3219. The Trust Deed is not a "Residential Trust Deed", as defined in ORS 86.705(3), thus the requirements of Chapter 19, Section 20, Oregon Laws 2008, and Chapter 864 [S.B. 628], Oregon Laws 2009, do not apply. DEFAULT BY GRANTOR AND ELECTION TO SELL: There are continuing and uncured defaults by the Grantor that, based on the provisions of the Trust Deed, authorize the foreclosure of the Trust Deed and the sale of the Property described above, which uncured and continuing defaults include but are not necessarily limited to the following: 1. Grantor's failure to pay to Beneficiary, the full aggregate amount of monthly payments on account of accruing interest due for the period commencing May 2009 and continuing through and including December 2009, a net amount that as of December 22, 2009 totals $105,808.54, and which past-due amount continues to increase from and after December 22, 2009 at the rate of $683.58 per diem, together with Beneficiary's unpaid fees, costs, and expenses (including Beneficiary's unpaid attorneys' fees and costs as allowed under the Trust Deed) as of December 22, 2009 of $12,372.99, resulting in an aggregate arrearage amount as of December 22, 2009 that totals $118,181.53.

The full arrearage amount, $118,181.53 is immediately due and payable to Beneficiary together with additional accruing interest from and after December 23, 2009, plus Beneficiary's additional costs and expenses (together with Beneficiary's additional attorneys' fees and costs and expenses arising on account of this foreclosure process). 2.

Grantor's failure to cure defaults (cross-defaults) under certain loans made by Beneficiary to Angus Acres Limited Partnership. Due to the cross-default provisions of the loan documents including, but not limited to, the Trust Deed, Grantor's uncured defaults related to the Angus Acres Limited Partnership loans constitute an event of default under the Trust Deed. 3. On account of Grantor's continuing and uncured defaults, on November 2, 2009, Beneficiary accelerated all amounts due under the loan secured by the Trust Deed and made demand on Grantor for immediate and unconditional payment to Beneficiary of all amounts due under the loan. Despite Beneficiary's demand, Grantor has failed to pay to Beneficiary the full amount of the indebtedness due under the loan secured by the Trust Deed. TOTAL UNCURED MONETARY (PAYMENT) DEFAULT: By reason of said uncured and continuing defaults, the Beneficiary has accelerated and declared all sums owing on the obligation secured by the Trust Deed and the Property immediately due and payable. The sums due and payable being the following: Unpaid principal amount owing pursuant to the Obligations, as of December 22, 2009: $2,986,980.45; Unpaid interest owing pursuant to the Obligations as of December 22, 2009: $149,426.35; Payments held in suspense for application to accrued interest owed by Grantor to Beneficiary as of December 22, 2009: ($43,617.81); Accrued and unpaid fees, costs and collection expenses, including attorneys fees and costs, to December 22, 2009: $12,372.99; TOTAL AMOUNT DUE: $3,105,161.98. Accordingly, the sum owed by Grantor to Beneficiary on the obligation secured by the Trust Deed is $3,105,161.98, as of December 22, 2009, together with interest accruing on the principal portion of that amount, plus additional costs and expenses incurred by Beneficiary and/or the Successor Trustee (including their respective attorney's fees, costs, and expenses). Notice is hereby given that the Beneficiary, by reason of the uncured and continuing defaults described above, has elected and does hereby elect to foreclose said Trust Deed by advertisement and sale pursuant to ORS 86.735 et seq., and to cause to be sold at public auction to the highest bidder for cash, the Grantor's interest in the subject Property, which the Grantor had, or had the power to convey, at the time the Grantor executed the Trust Deed in favor of the Beneficiary, along with any interest the Grantor or the Grantor's successors in interest acquired after the execution of the Trust Deed, to satisfy the obligations secured by the Trust Deed as well as the expenses of the sale, including compensation of the Trustee as provided by law, and the reasonable fees of Trustee's attorneys.
