Water rate increases unavoidable with system overhaul

By Nick Grube The Bulletin

It appears water rates in Bend will continue to increase over the next several years to pay for an overhaul of the municipal water system, and that’s likely the case even if city councilors don’t opt to keep a hydropower plant in the plans.

City officials updated financial estimates for the large-scale update to the city’s aging infrastructure and add a treatment system that would eliminate debris and dangerous microorganisms from the water that is piped into city faucets from Bridge Creek.

A heated debate in northeast Bend over two five-person mental health treatment homes that

pacts on the neighborhood.

But state and federal law doesn’t require input from neighbors before opening certain residential treatment homes. The Fair Housing Act prevents discrimination against individuals when it comes to where they live, and state law specifically bars cities and counties from forcing five-person homes to receive special

permitting or go through a public hearing before opening in residential neighborhoods.

“There’s no special use permit needed or anything. This is just as if a family were to go in and buy a home,” said Tony Guillen, a forensic housing and services coordinator with the Oregon Addictions and Mental Health Services.

Palliative care could make cancer patients’ lives longer

By Donald G. McNeil Jr. New York Times News Service

Increases bigger than expected The initial burden on ratepayers would be greater than expected, councilors were told, because a $13 million hydropower plant that would help offset costs of the project no longer has the option of many of the green energy tax credits, grants, and low or no interest loans that were once available.

“I don’t think our ratepayers will swallow that,” Councilor Tom Greene said. “Ten years from now (the hydro plant) is going to be just as attractive.”

The city needs to add a way to treat its surface water in order to comply with federal mandates.

Correction In a story headlined “More cuts ahead for Oregon schools,” which appeared Wednesday, Aug. 18, on Page A1, the amount the Redmond School District expects to receive in recently announced federal funding was incorrectly reported. The district expects $1.3 million.

SUNRIVER — The professionals who will play the first round of the Jeld-Wen Tradition today at Crosswater Club are here to play golf.

But some find time to get out and explore Central Oregon in their offcourse hours.

Andy Bean is one of those golfers who gets out and explores, at least once he finishes doing what he’s paid to do.

Opposite of ‘death panels’ “It shows that palliative care is the opposite of all that rhetoric about ‘death panels,’” said Dr. Diane Meier, director of the Center to Advance Palliative Care at Mount Sinai School of Medicine and coauthor of an editorial in the journal accompanying the study. “It’s not about killing Granny; it’s about keeping Granny alive as long as possible — with the best quality of life.”

In the three-year study, 151 patients with fast-growing lung cancer at Massachusetts General, one of the nation’s top hospitals, were randomly assigned to get either oncology treatment alone or oncology treatment with palliative care — pain relief and other measures intended to improve a patient’s quality of life. They were followed until the end of 2009, by which time about 70 percent were dead.

Although he’s not had a chance yet to go out on the river, Bean has headed over to the water hazards on the second and 12th holes to try his luck with the fish.

“I’ve caught and let a few go out there,” he said.

Right now, Bean doesn’t feel like he’s playing very well. As a result, he’s been putting in more hours working on his golf game and fewer hours improving his fly casting.

Bean, 57, is a fisherman, although he said he doesn’t always get time on the river like he wants.

“I wish I was able to fish as much as I’m accused of or given credit for,” he said.

This year, Bean is staying with friends who have a house along Fall River. But so far, Bean hasn’t been able to get in the water.

“It’s only 50 feet away, but I haven’t even been in yet,” he said.

In a study that sheds new light on the effects of end-oflife care, doctors have found that patients with terminal lung cancer who began receiving palliative care immediately upon diagnosis not only were happier, more mobile and in less pain as the end neared — but they also lived nearly three months longer.

The findings, published online Wednesday by the New England Journal of Medicine, confirmed what palliative care specialists had long suspected. The study also, experts said, cast doubt on the decision to strike end-of-life provisions from the health care overhaul passed last year.

Civilians set to take charge in Iraq

By Michael R. Gordon New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — As the U.S. military prepares to leave Iraq by the end of 2011, the Obama administration is planning a remarkable civilian effort, buttressed by a small army of contractors, to fill the void.

By October 2011, the State Department will assume responsibility for training the Iraqi police, a task that will largely be carried out by contractors. With no U.S. soldiers to defuse sectarian tensions in northern Iraq, it will be

up to U.S. diplomats in two new $100 million outposts to head off potential confrontations between the Iraqi army and Kurdish Peshmerga forces.

To protect the civilians in a country that is still home to insurgents with al-Qaida and Iranian-backed militias, the State Department is planning to more than double its private security guards, up to as many as 7,000, according to administration officials who disclosed new details of the plan. Defending five fortified compounds across the

country, the security contractors would operate radars to warn of enemy rocket attacks, search for roadside bombs, fly reconnaissance drones and even staff quick reaction forces to aid civilians in distress, the officials said.

White House officials expressed confidence that the transfer to civilians — about 2,400 people who would work at the diplomatic sites — would be carried out on schedule and that they could fulfill their mission of helping bring stability to Iraq.

NEW YORK — When Maureen Mazumder enrolled her daughter, Sabrina, in a Spanish singalong class a year ago, she hoped it would be the first step in helping her learn a second language. But the class did not seem to do the trick, so Mazumder decided to hire a baby sitter, one who would not only care for her daughter but also speak to her exclusively in Spanish.

Mazumder, whose daughter is nearly 3, has company. Although a majority of parents seeking caretakers for their children still want ones who will speak to their children in English, popular parenting blogs and websites indicate that a noticeable number of New York City parents are looking for baby sitters and nannies to help their children learn a second language, one they may not speak themselves.

Parents cite different reasons for hiring baby sitters and nannies to speak a second language with their children. Some struggled to pick up foreign languages and want to make life easier for their children. Some believe it makes them smarter. And naturally, this being the melting pot that is New York, many parents have a connection to another language and want to reinforce it.

Not long ago, many parents insisted that their foreign-language-speaking nannies refrain from using their native tongue and speak only English with their children for fear that another language might muddle their English-language development.

But research shows that learning a second language makes it easier to learn additional languages.

Cost of bilingualism In recent years, a number of neuroscientists and psychologists have tried to untangle the impact of bilingualism on brain development.

“It doesn’t make kids smarter,” said Ellen Bialystok, a professor of psychology at York University in Toronto and the author of “Bilingualism in Development: Language, Literacy and Cognition.”

Registering a child for school usually means showing up with a birth certificate, proof of residence and basic medical records. Five minutes and you’re done.

But for kids who need special education, whether they have attention disorders, fine motor delays or more serious medical conditions, that process is much more complicated and can begin as early as age 2. Something as simple as advancing to a new grade can mean an army of specialists performing hours of tests and parent interviews in the preceding months.

“Most parents are initially dealing with coming to terms with the fact that their child has a disability,” said Pam Wright, a psychotherapist who co-wrote “Wrightslaw: From Emotions to Advocacy” with her husband, Pete Wright.

“People are already vulnerable coming in,” she said. “They have a lot of anxiety and helplessness and fear about the future. That doesn’t set the stage for parents to feel like they are an equal partner in developing an educational program for their child.”

Here are some suggestions from the Wrights and other

specialists: • Know your rights. Plenty of books and Internet resources explain the ins and outs of the Individuals With Disabilities Education Act of 2004, which regulates special-education services. Most school systems also hold workshops for parents.

• Communicate ahead of time. Once you find out who is part of your individualized education plan meeting, e-mail or call them to discuss your expectations. Knowing what is on the agenda can help you better prepare any questions or concerns you might have for the teacher and other specialists.

• Prepare a statement of your concerns. Note anything that you see going on with your child at home. Write down what you think are his or her biggest trouble spots and greatest strengths so the committee can take them into account.

• Be a polite detective. While you are seeking answers to the tough questions, be courteous and try to keep your emotions in check.

• Follow up on the plan. Just having an IEP isn’t enough.

Communicate with your child’s teachers throughout the school year to make sure the plan is being carried out and to find out what you can do at home to support their efforts.

For-profit colleges see stocks plummet after loan reports

By Julia Love McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Fred R. Conrad/ New York Times News Service

Elas Tarazona, who was hired by Nir Liberboim and his partner to speak only Spanish with their 11-month-old son, William, in Liberboim’s home in New York.

Bialystok’s research shows that bilingual children tend to have smaller vocabularies in English than their monolingual counterparts, and that the limited vocabulary tends to be words used at home (spatula and squash) rather than words used at school (astronaut, rectangle).

The measurement of vocabulary is always in one language: A bilingual child’s collective vocabulary from both languages will probably be larger.

“Bilingualism carries a cost, and the cost is rapid access to words,” Bialystok said.

In other words, children have to work harder to access the right word in the right language, which can slow them down

— by milliseconds, but slower nonetheless.

At the same time, bilingual children do better at complex tasks like isolating information presented in confusing ways, a fact researchers attribute to a more developed prefrontal cortex (the part of the brain responsible for executive decision-making, like which language to use with certain people).

Bialystok said that for a child to retain a language, a nanny probably would not do the trick.

“It’s an interesting solution; it gives young children a consistent exposure,” she said. “But how long will the nanny be around, and who else will the child use that language with?”

Stocks of for-profit colleges fell drastically this week after the release last week of data by the Department of Education that showed that nearly twothirds of the schools’ students did not repay federal loans, bolstering calls for stronger regulation of the industry.

The government on Friday released the 2009 loan repayment rates for more than 8,000 colleges and universities to gauge the potential impact of its proposed “gainful employment” rule, which would cut off federal aid to programs whose students are not able to repay their loans.

An analysis of the federal data showed overall repayment rates at for-profit colleges were 36 percent, according to the Institute for College Access and Success. By comparison, repayment rates were 56 percent at private nonprofit schools and 54 percent at public colleges and universities, the group said.

Losing federal aid would effectively put many programs out of business, as some forprofit colleges rely on it for nearly 90 percent of their revenue, which is the maximum percentage allowed by the federal

government.

Though just 10 percent of college students attend for-profit schools, the schools collect nearly 25 percent of the $24 billion the government allocates each year in Pell grants and Stafford loans.

Heavy selling hit stocks of firms including Corinthian Colleges Inc., which tumbled $1.44, or 22 percent, to $5.22; ITT Educational Services, which sank $9.40, or 14.6 percent, to $54.93; and Kaplan University parent Washington Post Co., which slid $27.83, or 8.1 percent, to $315.65.

Also falling: Strayer Education Inc., down $36.75, or 18.4 percent, to $163.26; and DeVry Inc., off $3.74, or 8.8 percent, to $38.97.

All of those shares ended the day at new 52-week lows.

For-profit college shares have been under intense pressure in recent months amid fears of a federal crackdown on their operations. Since June 24, the day of the initial Senate hearings on the industry, an index of 12 major for-profit education stocks has plunged 28 percent, while the average New York Stock Exchange stock has risen 2.1 percent in the same period.

Wear a watch? Write in cursive? Not for Class of 2014

By Dinesh Ramde The Associated Press

MILWAUKEE — For students entering college this fall, e-mail is too slow, phones have never had cords and the computers they played with as kids are now in museums.

The Class of 2014 thinks of Clint Eastwood more as a sensitive director than as Dirty Harry urging punks to “go ahead, make my day.” Few incoming freshmen know how to write in cursive or have ever worn a wristwatch.

These are among the 75 items on this year’s Beloit College Mindset List. The compilation, released Tuesday, is assembled

each year by two officials at this private school of about 1,400 students in Beloit, Wis. The list is meant to remind teachers that cultural references familiar to them might draw blank stares from college freshmen born mostly in 1992.

Who is Rodney King?

Of course, it can also have the unintended consequence of making people feel old. Remember when Dr. Jack Kevorkian, Dan Quayle or Rodney King were in the news? These kids don’t.

Ever worry about a Russian missile strike on the U.S.? During

these students’ lives, Russians and Americans have always been living together in outer space.

Being aware of the generation gap helps professors craft lesson plans that are more meaningful, said Ron Nief, a former public affairs director at Beloit College and one of the list’s creators.

Nief and English professor Tom McBride have assembled the Mindset List for 13 years. They say it’s given them an unusual perspective on cultural shifts.

For example, as item No. 13 on the list says, “Parents and teachers feared that Beavis and Butthead might be the voice of a lost generation.”

With far edgier content available today, such as “South Park” or online videos that push the envelope, there’s something quaint about recalling the handwringing that the MTV cartoon prompted, Nief said.

“I think we do that with every generation — we look back and say, ‘What were we getting so upset about?’” he said. “A, kids outgrow it and B, in retrospect we realize it really wasn’t that bad.”

‘Snail mail’ Jessica Peck, a 17-year-old from Portland, disagreed with two items on the list — one that

says few students know how to write in cursive, and another that suggests this generation seldom, if ever, uses snail mail.

“Snail mail’s kind of fun.

When I have time I like writing letters to friends and family,” she said. “It’s just a bit more personal. And yes, I write in cursive.”

The “Beavis and Butthead” item suggests that maybe parents shouldn’t overreact every time a controversy arises, McBride noted. For example, maybe it’s no big deal if college freshmen misspell words when they text, and maybe their attention spans will be just fine even though they grew up in the Internet age, he said.

T S North Korean jet Flooding in Pakistan crashes in China upends U.S. strategy

By David Barboza and Choe Sang-Hun New York Times News Service

SHANGHAI — A North Korean plane crashed in northern China on Tuesday, killing the pilot, the only person on board, according to China’s state-run Xinhua News Agency.

Yonhap, the South Korean news agency, citing unnamed intelligence sources, said that the plane appeared to be a Sovietera MiG-21 jet, a craft used by the North Korean Air Force, and that the pilot might have been trying to defect to Russia but lost course.

Although thousands of North Koreans have fled their repressive home country in the past decade and a half, it is highly unusual for an elite pilot to defect.

A North Korean pilot flew his MiG-19 to defect to South Korea in 1983. Another North Korean pilot did the same in 1996.

China’s official policy is to return North Korean defectors, although in practice it allows many to stay on quietly.

Quoting an unidentified South Korean military source, Yonhap said the jet took off from an airfield in Sinuiju, a North Korean town on the far western border

with China about 125 miles from the site of the crash. Xinhua said the plane crashed into a house in a rural area of Liaoning province, which borders North Korea. The Chinese report, which described the crash as an accident, said no one on the ground was killed or injured.

No explosion Cao Yunjuan, a 54-year-old farmer in Fushun County, where the crash occurred, said she saw the plane going down but that she heard no explosion.

“Around 3 p.m. yesterday, I saw a small plane going down, and soon it disappeared from my view,” she said in a telephone interview Wednesday. “There was no blast, though.”

Cao said that she lived less than a mile from the crash site, and that she and other villagers went to see the wreckage before the area was cordoned off by the police. Many saw a North Korean emblem on the plane’s tail.

Photographs of what appear to be the crash site show a North Korean star on the wreckage.

Xinhua said China was in communication with North Korea about the crash.

WASHINGTON — The floods in Pakistan have upended the Obama administration’s carefully honed strategy there, confronting the United States with a vast humanitarian crisis and militant groups determined to exploit the misery, in a country that was already one of its thorniest problems.

While the administration has kept its public emphasis on the relief effort, senior officials are busy assessing the longer-term strategic impact. One official said the disaster would affect virtually every aspect of the relationship between the United States and Pakistan and could have ripple effects on the war in Afghanistan and the broader U.S. battle against al-Qaida.

With Pakistan’s economy suffering a grievous blow, the administration could be forced to redirect parts of its $7.5 billion economic aid package for Pakistan to urgent needs like rebuilding bridges, rather than more ambitious goals like upgrading the rickety electricity grid.

Beyond that, the United States will be dealing with a crippled Pakistani government

Obama ends campaign tour in Florida New York Times News Service MIAMI — President Barack Obama threw his weight behind Democratic governors in the battleground states of Florida and Ohio on Wednesday, while leveling blistering critiques of Republican policies that he said would put the country in further economic peril.

Dems fume over $1M Murdoch donation WASHINGTON — The media conglomerate headed by Rupert Murdoch is inserting itself into the races in bold fashion with a $1 million donation to the Republican Governors Association.

The contribution from Murdoch’s News Corp., which owns Fox News, The Wall Street Journal, The New York Post and other news outlets, is one of the biggest ever given by a media organization, campaign finance experts said.

Democrats seized on the donation as evidence of the News Corp.’s conservative leanings, with Media Matters for America calling it “an appendage of the Republican Party.”

Feds: No timeline for completing relief well NEW ORLEANS — The government’s point man for the Gulf oil spill said Wednesday he cannot provide a timeline right now for when BP’s blown-out well will finally be plugged for good.

Retired Coast Guard Adm. Thad Allen told reporters he will give the order to complete the so-called relief well when he is ready. Since nearly the start of

the disaster in April, the plan had been to complete the relief well by early to mid-August. But stormy weather and now questions of how to make the job less risky have delayed that process.

Allen said BP PLC still needs to come up with a plan to alleviate pressure that may build up once the relief well intersects the blown-out well.

Texas gunman liked ‘to scare people’ MCKINNEY, Texas — A Georgia teenager says that less than an hour before Patrick Sharp tried to set off a massacre outside the McKinney police headquarters, he contacted her online.

“Killers like to share their thoughts, seek attention,” read a message the girl said Sharp sent her Tuesday morning on Facebook.

“I like to scare people. I enjoy watching people beg for their life. I like watching them drown.

When they take their last breath, oh it’s amazing.”

Sharp — who fired more than 100 rounds at the public safety building before killing himself — didn’t have a criminal record and had no previous run-ins with McKinney police, they said.

Jason Conger, a Republican from Bend who is running against Stiegler in this year’s election, attended the gathering at Edgecliff Circle on Friday to get a sense of the community’s concerns. He said he understands why people would “assume the worst” since they didn’t have any information to prove them otherwise.

“It looks to me like this whole situation has been handled as poorly as it possibly could have, almost as if someone carefully designed and executed a plan to create the maximum concern and outrage,” Conger said.

He said he also thinks the state law might need to be tinkered with, at least to give residents a chance to learn about who is moving in next door and allow them to discuss smaller issues, like whether there will be an impact on parking in the vicinity of the home.

“The public should have a say, or at least an opportunity for discussion, to understand what’s going on in their neighborhood,” Conger said. “Just having the information ahead of time and the opportunity to ask questions and express concerns would have a far better result.”

Sometimes these notifications and meetings come sooner, he said, but a lot of times they are subject to making sure contract negotiations, for the purchase of the property for instance, are completed before. The company also prefers to be completely moved into a new home before holding an open house for the neighborhood so people can see how the home will actually look when it’s up and running.

“We try to give as much notice as we possibly can,” McChesney said. “I think given what’s happened with this project, Telecare as a company will take a look at its policies and procedures around this and perhaps take a look at changing that.”

“These homes were part of an overall plan by Deschutes County to create a continuum of housing for people with mental illness. Various officials were aware of the plan and that these homes were eventually going to be sited,” Guillen said. “With regard to notification and timing of notification, we’re concerned about the response that neighbors had, but it seems like almost a moot point with how they’re going to react. If we approached them six months before (opening a home) or six days before, it’s the same (reaction).”

The state is paying the privately owned Telecare Corp. to open the two residential treatment homes in Bend in exchange for the Deschutes County agreeing to build a locked facility for state mental health patients near the county jail in north Bend.

The homes to be opened in northeast Bend will have 24hour supervision and will not be locked facilities. Individuals staying in the homes will either be mental health patients from Central Oregon counties or people who are leaving Oregon State Hospital after a civil commitment — meaning they aren’t under the supervision of the state Psychiatric Security Review Board as the result of being convicted of a crime except for reason of insanity. All patients will be screened to ensure they don’t have a history of violence or are convicted

sex offenders, according to Telecare Corp. officials.

Telecare Corp. sent a letter to people living around Edgecliff Circle last week about the residential treatment home opening up there and invited those in the neighborhood to a get-together on Aug. 26 to learn more about the facility.

That letter incensed many people in the neighborhood who were worried about the safety of their children and their home values. They held their own meeting Friday to discuss their options for what to do, and on Monday met with county, state and Telecare officials to ask them not to open the facility until the community received more information and a public meeting was held. As of Wednesday, officials had not made a decision on the next step.

Telecare Corp. Regional Director of Operations Kevin McChesney said that while it’s not required by law to give a notice to neighbors about opening up a new residential treatment home, his company feels it’s important to do so in order give people a better understanding of what goes on at the facilities.

‘Seems like almost a moot point’

— State Rep. Judy Stiegler, D-Bend

Continued from A1 Guillen is working closely with Deschutes County and treatment center operator Telecare Corp. to open the homes. “I think the express purpose is to make sure that people with disabilities aren’t discriminated against and that people with mental illnesses are in that protected class.”

No notification of neighboring residents is required before opening a residential treatment facility in a particular neighborhood. And while it’s typically encouraged, officials from the state Addictions and Mental Health Services said it’s more or less up to the provider — in this case Telecare Corp. — to educate the community, whether it’s through door-to-door visits, putting an advertisement in a newspaper or holding a neighborhood meeting. There are also no guidelines for when a notification should be given.

State Rep. Judy Stiegler, DBend, was at Monday’s meeting between Telecare Corp., Deschutes County, the state and several concerned citizens who live around Edgecliff Circle. Based on what she heard, she said it seemed like the biggest issue was a lack of communication between Telecare Corp. and its soon-to-be neighbors.

“I don’t think anybody should be too surprised that there was a fairly strong reaction,” Stiegler said.

Though there are certain laws to protect the rights of mental health patients, she said she’s willing to analyze the state law and see if anything can be done to prevent similar community backlashes from taking place in the future.

“I’m more than willing to look at the whole situation and see what — if anything — there is we can and should do at the state level to make other provisions in the legislation,” Stiegler said. “I’m happy to work with ... existing laws to see if there’s a better way for things to happen. What that would look like I’m not sure.”

There is sometimes tension between medical specialties, since surgeons and oncologists often view cancer as a battle, while palliative care specialists are seen as “giving up.”

Palliative care typically begins with a long conversation about what the patient with a terminal diagnosis wants out of his remaining life. It includes the options any oncologist addresses: surgery, chemotherapy and radiation and their side effects. But it also includes how much suffering a patient wishes to bear, effects on the family, and legal, insurance and religious issues. Teams focus on controlling pain, nausea, swelling, shortness of breath and other side effects; they also address patients’ worries and make sure they have help with making meals, dressing and bathing when not hospitalized.

“I’m more than willing to look at the whole situation and see what — if anything — there is we can and should do at the state level to make other provisions in the legislation.”

Medical tension

Hospice care is intensive palliative care including home nursing, but insurers and Medicare usually cover it only if the patient abandons medical treatment and two doctors certify that death is less than six months away.

During the debate over President Barack Obama’s 2009 health care overhaul, legislative provisions to have Medicare and insurers pay for optional consultations with doctors on palliative and hospice care led to rumors, spread by talk-show hosts like Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck and by the former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin that the bill empowered “death panels” that would “euthanize” elderly Americans.

Legislators eventually removed the provisions.

Palliative care experts now want to study patients with other cancers, heart disease, stroke, dementia and emphysema. But the National Institutes of Health is under budget pressure, and the other major source of money for medical research, the pharmaceutical industry, has little incentive to study palliative care. This trial was paid for by the American Society of Clinical Oncology and private philanthropy.

“Philanthropists tend to focus on curing cancer,” Temel said.

“But we can’t ignore people who need end-of-life care.”

Continued from A1 Those getting palliative care from the start, the authors said, reported less depression and happier lives as measured on scales for pain, nausea, mobility, worry and other problems. Moreover, even though substantially fewer of them opted for aggressive chemotherapy as their illnesses worsened and many more left orders that they not be resuscitated in a crisis, they typically lived almost three months longer than the group getting standard care, who lived a median of nine months.

Doctors and patients “traditionally see palliative care as something extended to a hospitalized patient in the last week of life,” said Dr. Jennifer S. Temel, an oncologist and author of the paper.

“We thought it made sense to start them at the time of diagnosis. And we were thrilled to see such a huge impact. It shows that palliative care and cancer care aren’t mutually exclusive.”

Dr. Atul Gawande, a Harvard Medical School surgeon and writer who just published a long article in The New Yorker about hospitalized patients’ suffering before death, called the study “amazing.”

“The field was crying out for a randomized trial,” he added.

Although the study could not determine why the patients lived longer, the authors and other experts had several theories: Depression is known to shorten life, and patients whose pain is treated often sleep better, eat better and

talk more with relatives. Also, hospitals are dangerous places for very sick people; they may get fatal blood infections, pneumonia or bedsores, or simply be overwhelmed by the powerful drugs and radiation attacking their cancer.

Saying the study was “of critical importance,” Dr. R. Sean Morrison, president of the American Academy of Hospice and Palliative Medicine, said it was the “first concrete evidence of what a lot of us have seen in our practices — when you control pain and other symptoms, people not only feel better, they live longer.”

Fred Funk, 54, won the tournament in 2008. He said that while he spends most of his time practicing and playing the course, he also tries to find a bit of time for recreation. In the past, he said, he’s taken tours of Mt. Bachelor and played a round at Pronghorn Club.

“A lot of times when I’m by myself, I don’t do much,” he said. “I practice a lot, and when I finish, I’m tired.”

But in Central Oregon, the fishing is hard to resist. The clear water makes it more of a challenge — and Bean loves a challenge.

“As a pro golfer I love the competition, and this is like a competition, too. It’s a challenge to learn what it takes (to catch a fish) in a specific area,” he said. “But I’ve got to do my work first.”

Still, he visits local fly shops and loves being in the area.

“This is definitely a great town for us,” he said. “It’s a great golf course for us and the little rewards on the side, like with fishing for me, it’s a great place to go.”

Designed and fabricated by a master sculptor in China, some of the stones will be assembled into the “Stone of Hope,” a threestory relief of King that is the memorial’s centerpiece and will be one of the biggest figurative sculptures in Washington.

Named for a line from King’s 1963 “I Have a Dream” speech, the 30-foot 8-inch sculpture bears the image of the slain civilrights leader in a business suit with his arms folded.

vessel that carries two cargo cranes and a crew of about 12, picked up the stone blocks in the eastern Chinese port of Xiamen, where they had been in storage, said Edwin Bastian, director of global sales at the company’s Houston office, who was at the unloading in Baltimore.

Bastian said the trip, roughly 11,000 miles, was a “direct voyage” from Xiamen to Baltimore, via the Panama Canal, with perhaps a stop for fuel. The ship steams at about 12 knots, he said, adding that to his knowledge the sculpture was its only cargo. He said he could not discuss the cost.

Once completed, the sculpture will be bigger than the 19-foot statue of Thomas Jefferson in the Jefferson Memorial, the 19foot 6-inch statue of Abraham Lincoln in the Lincoln Memorial and the 19-foot 6-inch “Freedom” statue on the U.S. Capitol dome.

MT. WASHINGTON

Downtime

WASHINGTON — After more than a decade of effort, a few chapters of controversy and a 47day ocean voyage from China, a small blue and white cargo ship pulled into Baltimore’s Canton Marine Terminal at 6 a.m. Friday bearing the shipment of stone blocks that will make up Washington’s national memorial to the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. The 159 granite sculpture blocks, which weigh 1,600 metric tons, were believed to be the vessel’s only freight. They were carried, with little fanfare, aboard the BBC France, a modern, 300foot-long vessel operated by the German-based shipping firm BBC Chartering.

As King project officials watched, the crated blocks were unloaded and placed in temporary storage near the port. They will remain there until construc-

tion crews are ready to start assembling the memorial this fall on a site amid the cherry trees near the Tidal Basin.

The $120 million memorial’s official unveiling is scheduled for next year. The arrival of the pre-carved pieces in the U.S. is a major milestone in the project.

Water rates Continued from A1 If Bend wants to continue taking water from Bridge Creek, it also must replace a decades-old pipeline that is in poor condition. A hydropower plant was always an optional component of the project, and was suggested by city staff and consultants as a way to reduce the overall cost of the project. Costs were initially estimated to be $71 million. With all three components that estimate has now increased to $73 million — $29.8 million for the pipeline, $13 million for the hydropower plant and $29.7 million for a preferred treatment option.

Rates rise with or without power plant On Wednesday, city staff said the estimated water rate increase to pay for the project might be too much to ask of ratepayers if the hydropower plant was included with the other two components. With the plant, water rates would go up 9.1 percent.

Without the plant it could be 8.5 percent or less, depending on what treatment options are chosen. But Finance Director Sonia Andrews said those estimates will change as the project nears construction.

Bend already has increased water rates over the past three years, including a 7.1 percent hike this year, to help pay for the coming water system upgrade.

legally operate under a new ordinance that prohibits pot dispensaries near schools and other locations.

And Capt. Kevin McCarthy, head of the Los Angeles Police Department’s Gangs and Narcotics Division, said most of the illegal operators closed voluntarily over the past two months.

Several councilors, however, indicated they wanted to continue to seek grants and other available tax credits to keep the hydropower plant viable, and said they want engineers to keep it in the design plans as they move toward making a final decision on the project.

“Keep working it, and don’t close off that option until it starts getting really expensive,” Councilor Mark Capell said.

“I think it’s one of those things that’s a game changer for this community.”

Treatment options Councilors also received updates on their water treatment options and must choose between an ultraviolet light filtration system to get rid of microorganisms, which is estimated to cost around $25 million, or a membrane filtration system that traps bacteria and debris from snow melt or wildfires, which is the preferred option and has a price tag of $29.7 million. Some councilors have asked to learn more about whether the city should take more of its water supply from groundwater wells.

Currently, the city gets about half of its annual water supply from Bridge Creek and the other half from wells.

Decisions on the water system likely will not come until November or December.

Iraq Continued from A1 “The really big picture that we have seen in Iraq over the last year and a half to two years is this: The number of violent incidents is significantly down, the competence of Iraqi security forces is significantly up and politics has emerged as the basic way of doing business in Iraq,” said Antony Blinken, the national security adviser to Vice President Joe Biden. “If that trend continues, and I acknowledge it is an ‘if,’ that creates a much better context for dealing with the very significant and serious problems that remain in Iraq.”

But the tiny military presence under the Obama administration’s plan — limited to several dozen to several hundred officers in an embassy office who would help the Iraqis purchase and field new U.S. military equipment — and the civilians’ growing portfolio have led some veteran Iraq hands to suggest that thousands of additional troops would be needed after 2011.

“We need strategic patience here,” Ryan Crocker, who served as ambassador in Iraq from 2007 until early 2009, said in an interview. “Our timetables are getting out ahead of Iraqi reality. We do have an Iraqi partner in this. We certainly are not the ones making unilateral decisions anymore.

But if they come to us later on this year requesting that we jointly relook at the post-2011 period, it is going to be in our strategic interest to be responsive.”

The array of tasks that military experts and some Iraqi officials believe U.S. troops likely will be needed for include training Iraqi forces to operate and support logistically new M-1 tanks, artillery and F-16s they intend to acquire from the Americans, protecting Iraq’s airspace until the country can rebuild its air force and perhaps assisting Iraq’s special operations units in carrying out counterterrorism operations.

Such an arrangement would need to be negotiated with Iraqi officials, who insisted on the 2011 deadline in the agreement with the Bush administration for removing U.S. forces. With the Obama ad-

ty contractors, buying new equipment and setting up two consulates in Basra and Erbil, is about $1 billion. It will cost an additional $500 million or so to make the two consulates permanent. And getting the police training program under way will cost about $800 million.

2011 goal to be more challenging The Obama administration had already committed itself to reducing U.S. troops in Iraq to 50,000 by the end of August, a goal the White House on Wednesday said would be met. Administration officials and experts outside government say, however, that implementing the agreement that calls for removing all U.S. forces by the end of 2011 will be far more challenging.

The progress or difficulties in transferring responsibility to the civilians will not only influence events in Iraq but will provide something of a test case for the Obama administration’s longerterm strategy in Afghanistan.

Preparations for the civilian mission have been under way for months. One U.S. official said more than 1,200 specific tasks carried out by the U.S. military in Iraq had been identified to be handed over to the civilians, transferred to the Iraqis or phased out.

To move around Iraq without U.S. troops, the State Department

plans to acquire 60 mine-resistant, ambush-protected vehicles, called MRAPs, from the Pentagon; expand its inventory of armored cars to 1,320; and create a mini-air fleet by buying three planes to add to its lone aircraft.

Its helicopter fleet, which will be piloted by contractors, will grow to 29 choppers from 17.

The department’s plans to rely on 6,000 to 7,000 security contractors, who are also expected to form “quick reaction forces” to rescue civilians in trouble, is a sensitive issue, given Iraqi fury about shootings of civilians by American private guards in recent years. Administration officials said that security contractors would have no special immunity and would be required to register with the Iraqi government. In addition, one of the State Department’s regional security officers, agents who oversee security at diplomatic outposts, will be required to approve and accompany every civilian convoy, providing additional oversight.

Study: Driving with dogs a danger

By Jon Hilkevitch Chicago Tribune

CHICAGO — Safety experts have a new pet peeve related to distracted driving.

In addition to texting or talking on a cell phone while driving, lap dogs and other pets left unrestrained inside moving vehicles pose a major distraction that could be deadly, a new study released Wednesday warns motorists.

About two-thirds of dog owners surveyed by the AAA organization said they routinely drive while petting or playing with their dogs, sometimes even giving them food or water while maneuvering through traffic.

It has been a common sight for many years to see dogs hanging their heads out of open car windows with their ears flapping in the breeze. But in the cocoon that the automobile has become, more drivers are nonchalantly cradling their dogs atop their laps or perching the animals on their chests with the pet’s front paws clutching the driver’s neck or shoulders.

Risky for driver, pets It’s risky behavior for the driver and dangerous for the pets, too.

An 80-pound dog unrestrained during a crash at 30 mph exerts 2,400 pounds of force in a vehicle, creating a danger for the dog and anyone in its path, according to Motivation Design LLC, a company that manufactures pet travel products, including restraint systems for pets.

“As about 40 percent of Americans own dogs. We see this as an increasingly big problem,” said Beth Mosher, spokeswoman for AAA of Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin.

Dogs inside wrecked vehicles often become territorial and protective of their owners when police and emergency-responders try to rescue injured occupants, sometimes leaving authorities no other option than to shoot the animal in order to help the driver and passengers, say Illinois State Police troopers who have been dispatched to such accident scenes.

Among the trickiest missions for the civilians will be dealing with lingering Kurdish and Arab tensions. To tamp down potential conflicts in disputed areas, Gen. Ray Odierno, the senior U.S. commander in Iraq, established a series of checkpoints made up of U.S. soldiers, Iraqi army troops and Peshmerga fighters.

But those checkpoints may be phased out when the U.S. troops leave. Instead, the United States is counting on the new embassy branch offices.

Administration officials had planned to have another embassy branch office in Baquba, but dropped that idea because of spending constraints.

“They will be eyes and ears on the ground to see if progress is being made or problems are developing,” Blinken said.

But Daniel Serwer, a vice president of the U.S. Institute of Peace, a congressionally financed research center, questioned whether this would be sufficient.

“There is a risk it will open the door to real problems,” he said.

“Our soldiers have been out there in the field with the Kurds and Arabs. Now they are talking about two embassy branch offices, and the officials there may need to stay around the quad if it is not safe enough to be outside.”

GROUND ZERO MOSQUE DEBATE

By Calvin Woodward

Terror ‘sympathizers’ Some of the Muslim leaders associated with the mosque “are clearly terrorist sympathizers,” according to Kevin Calvey, a Republican running for Congress in Oklahoma.

No one has established a link between the cleric and radicals.

New York Police Department spokesman Paul Browne said: “We’ve identified no law enforcement issues related to the proposed mosque.”

Rauf counts former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright from the Clinton administration as a friend and appeared at events overseas or meetings in Washington with former President George W. Bush’s secretary of state, Condoleezza Rice, and Bush adviser Karen Hughes.

Proposed mosque World Trade Center site

Pedestrians walk past the 19th Century Building on Park Place in Manhattan, where Muslims plan to build a mosque and cultural center in New York.

Rauf has denounced the terrorist attacks and suicide bombing as anti-Islamic and has criticized Muslim nationalism. But he’s made provocative statements about America, too, calling it an “accessory” to the 9/11 attacks and attributing the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Iraqi children to the U.S.-led sanctions in the years before the invasion.

At ground zero “Mr. President, ground zero is the wrong place for a mosque.” said Rick Scott, Republican candidate for Florida governor.

No mosque is going up at ground zero. The center would be established at 45-51 Park Place, just more than two blocks from the northern edge of the sprawling, 16-acre World Trade Center site. Its location is roughly half a dozen normal Lower Manhattan blocks from the site of the North Tower, the nearest of the two de-

Russia moves to bolster ties with Afghanistan

GOMA, Democratic Republic of the Congo — A group of commandos from a Congolese rebel group ambushed a U.N. peacekeeping base hours before dawn Wednesday, killing at least three Indian members of the base’s force, U.N. officials said.

It was the deadliest attack on the U.N. peacekeeping mission since it was first stationed in the country more than a decade ago.

The officials said the surprise attack was carried out after 2 a.m. near the town of Kirumba in North Kivu province, when a group of five men in plain clothes casually approached the entrance to the peacekeeping base, requesting assistance.

When a translator for the Indian peacekeepers was summoned, the officials said, more than 50 rebels emerged from the dark, hacking and spearing three peacekeepers to death and leaving another three critically wounded.

MOSCOW — Twenty years after the last Russian soldier walked out of Afghanistan, Moscow is gingerly pushing its way back into the country with business deals and diplomacy, and promises of closer ties to come.

Russia is eager to cooperate on economic matters in part by reviving Soviet-era public works, its president, Dmitry Medvedev, said Wednesday during a summit meeting with the leaders of Afghanistan, Tajikistan and Pakistan, the second such fourway meeting organized by Russia in the past year.

The Kremlin is also looking to blunt Islamic extremism in Central Asia, which poses a threat to Russia’s security, particularly in the Caucasus, and to exploit opportunities in the promising Afghan mining and energy industries.

stroyed in the attacks.

The center’s location, in a former Burlington Coat Factory store, is already used by the cleric for worship, drawing a spillover from the imam’s former main place for prayers, the al-Farah mosque. That mosque, at 245 West Broadway, is about a dozen blocks north of the World Trade Center grounds.

Another, the Manhattan Mosque, stands five blocks from the northeast corner of the World Trade Center site.

To be sure, the center’s association with 9/11 is intentional and its location is no geographic coincidence. The building was damaged in the Sept. 11 attacks and the center’s planners say they want the center to stand as a statement against terrorism.

WASHINGTON — A New York imam and his proposed mosque near ground zero are being demonized by political candidates, despite the fact that Islam is already very much a part of the World Trade Center neighborhood, and despite that Muslims pray inside the Pentagon, too, less than 80 feet from where terrorists attacked.

And despite that the imam who’s being branded an extremist has been valued by both Republican and Democratic administrations as a moderate face of the faith.

Even so, the project stirs complicated emotions, and Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf is a complex figure who defies easy categorization in the American Muslim world.

A look at some of the claims and how they compare with the known facts:

so long as there are no churches or synagogues in Saudi Arabia. … America is experiencing an Islamist cultural-political offensive designed to undermine and destroy our civilization,” said former U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich.

Such opinions are shared by some Americans, while others are more reluctant to paint the religion with a broad brush and more welcoming of the faith in this country.

Bush himself, while criticized at the time for stirring suspicions about American Muslims, traveled to a Washington mosque less than a week after the attacks to declare that terrorism is “not what Islam is all about. Islam is peace.”

In any event, the U.S. armed forces field Muslim troops and make accommodations for them.

By Michelle Boorstein The Washington Post

Long before President Barack Obama waded into the vociferous debate over the socalled ground zero mosque, a group of conservative writers and bloggers critical of Islam had seized on the issue and helped transform it into a national political spectacle.

While some have dismissed them as bigoted attentionseekers, their attacks on the proposed Islamic center in Lower Manhattan have gained currency in recent weeks among some Republican leaders. And their influence appears to be growing.

They are organizing a Sept.

11 rally, featuring former U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich, against the proposed Islamic center in Lower Manhattan.

They advise the FBI and other government security agencies on the threats posed by Islamic radicalism, headline tea party events and attract millions of readers concerned or curious about Islam to websites with names such as Jihad Watch, Creeping Sharia and Stop Islamization of America.

“People on (Capitol) Hill, their staff read these sites, they show their bosses. … They push these subjects into the spotlight, often at a time when major media isn’t doing that,” said Cliff May, a columnist and former spokesman for the Republican National Committee who runs a think tank focused

on religious extremism and religious freedom.

Among the most colorful activists is Pam Geller, a former New York Observer publisher. Through her blog, Atlas Shrugs, television interviews and appearances at political and civic rallies, Geller has become one of the chief organizers of opposition to the ground zero mosque as well as efforts to build other Muslim prayer centers around the country.

Geller often partners with Robert Spencer, a best-selling writer who is less flamboyant but perhaps more influential.

Their efforts to rally public opinion against the mosque appear to have had an impact.

A CNN poll conducted this month showed that 68 percent of Americans oppose the idea of building a mosque two blocks from where the World Trade Center once stood.

While there is no new data on whether American views toward Islam have shifted since a spate of homegrown terror attacks and the furor over the mosque, Muslim American leaders worry it has. They accuse the bloggers of fueling religious hatred.

Brian Levin, a hate crimes expert who used to work with the Southern Poverty Law Center, said the bloggers gain traction partially because they make points about American Muslim extremism that “the mainstream media consistently ignore.”

Wick led Les Schwab during time of transition

By David Holley The Bulletin

G. Phillip Wick, a lifelong Les Schwab Tire Centers employee who is credited with much of the company’s success and growth in recent decades when he served as its president, died Tuesday. He was 66.

The cause of death was not released.

Those who knew Wick called him a quintessential Les Schwab employee, due to his tenure. A Puyallup, Wash., native, Wick started as a 21-yearold salesman in 1965 and became the youngest Les Schwab manager ever three years later at the Walla Walla, Wash., location. He continued to gradually rise through the ranks until becoming president in 1983, essentially chosen as successor to founder Les Schwab, who died in May 2007.

“He took it in a transitional phase from more of a mom-andpop shop to a national chain,” said former Crook County Judge Scott Cooper. “The only thing Phil ever wanted was what was best for the company.”

Deep cuts are coming to Oregon child care program

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. — ost research on renewable energy has focused on replacing the electricity that now comes from burning coal and natural gas. But the spill in the Gulf of Mexico, the reliance on Middle East imports and the threat of global warming are reminders that oil is also a pressing worry. A lot of problems could be solved with a renewable replacement for oil-based gasoline and diesel in the fuel tank — either a new liquid fuel or a much better battery.

Yet, success in this field is so hard to

reliably predict that research has been limited, and even venture capitalists tread lightly. Now the federal government is plunging in, in what the energy secretary, Steven Chu, calls the hunt for miracles.

The work is part of the mission of the new Advanced Research Projects Agency — Energy, which is intended to finance high-risk, high-reward projects.

It can be compared to the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, part of the Pentagon, which spreads seed money for projects and has incubated a variety of useful technologies, including the Internet.

The goal of this agency, whose budget is $400 million for two years, is to realize profound results — such as tens of millions of motor vehicles that would run 300 miles a day on electricity from clean sources or on liquid fuels from trees and garbage.

One miracle would be a better battery.

A pound of gasoline holds about 35 times more energy than a pound of lead-acid batteries and about six times more than lithium-ion batteries. Cars must carry their energy and expend energy to carry it, so the less weight per unit of energy, the better.

Public offering, likely in fall, could be biggest in history

OTTAWA, Ontario — Less than 24 hours after being bluntly rebuffed by the board of the Potash Corp. of Saskatchewan, BHP Billiton took its $38.6 billion offer directly to shareholders Wednesday. While Marius Kloppers, BHP’s chief executive, described the $130-a-share offer as attractive, particularly given that it was an all-cash bid, Potash investors signaled that they expected more. Potash shares rose 3.3 percent, to close at $147.93 Wednesday.

SAN FRANCISCO — Dell Inc. CEO and Chairman Michael Dell failed to win the support of more than a quarter of the computer maker’s shareholders for re-election to the board, the company said in a regulatory filing.

About 377.8 million of the 1.5 billion votes cast, or 25.1 percent, were to “withhold” support for Dell as a director at the company’s Aug. 12 shareholder meeting in Round Rock, Texas.

The vote comes as the computer maker’s sales and earnings per share have declined in each of the past two years.

In light of that, the vote isn’t surprising, said Shaw Wu, an analyst at Kaufman Bros. LP in San Francisco. Dell’s acquisitions haven’t transformed the company, he said.

Egg recall expanded after salmonella sickens hundreds

By William Neuman New York Times News Service

An Iowa company Wednesday broadened a nationwide recall of its eggs to 380 million after some of its facilities were linked to an outbreak of salmonella that has sickened hundreds of people across the country.

The outbreak, which federal officials said was the largest of its type related to eggs in years, began in May, just weeks before new government safety rules

went into effect that were intended to greatly reduce the risk of salmonella in eggs.

The company behind the recall, Wright County Egg, of Galt, Iowa, is owned by Jack DeCoster, who has had runins with regulators over poor or unsafe working conditions, environmental violations, the harassment of workers and the hiring of illegal immigrants.

The salmonella outbreak began in May, when several states

began seeing an increase in the number of cases of a common type of bacterial illness known as Salmonella enteritidis, said Dr. Christopher Braden, acting director of food-borne diseases at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta.

The numbers continued to grow, and in June and July, a database used to track disease nationwide found that the number of cases had risen from a historical average of about 50 a

week to about 200.

Public health officials in California, Minnesota and Colorado determined that many of the people who had gotten sick had eaten food containing eggs. Further investigation traced many tainted eggs to Wright County Egg. The company announced Friday that it was recalling 228 million eggs that it had sold since mid-May. See Eggs / B5

A program subsidizing the cost of child care for lower-income families is on the state’s chopping block, a move opponents say could force some parents to quit their jobs in order to look after their children.

The Employment Related Day Care Program, run through the Oregon Department of Human Services, has historically provided help with child care bills for families earning up to 185 percent of the federal poverty level. As of June, 20,453 children in 11,203 families were enrolled in the program.

According to the DHS, the average family has received a monthly subsidy of $528.

Starting in October, the program will be restricted to families earning up to 185 percent of the poverty level — $2,853 a month for a family of three — that also have received cash assistance under the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program within the last two years. After Dec. 31, all families that have not received help through TANF will be dropped from the child care program.

DHS estimates about half of the families currently enrolled in the child care program will be cut off.

Facebook unveils service to track users’ locations

By Miguel Helft and Jenna Wortham New York Times News Service

PALO ALTO, Calif. — Facebook introduced a long-anticipated service called Places on Wednesday that could help the company tap local and small-business advertisers and sharpen its competition with Google.

Facebook’s Places borrows heavily from location-based social networks like Foursquare and Gowalla, which allow users to check in at places and broadcast their location to friends.

But those companies, as well as others like Yelp, said they saw Facebook’s Places as a complement to their own services and as an opportunity to gain additional distribution.

Using Places on hand-held devices like the iPhone and other smart phones, users will be able to check in, for example, at a restau-

Fuels Continued from B1 David Danielson, an Energy Department official, oversees a program to invest in startup companies with new approaches to batteries, which is a new strategy; in the early 1990s, the department decided to concentrate all its efforts in lithium-ion research and gave up on other chemistries.

One new technology would allow every car, at modest extra cost, to shut down automatically at each stop sign or red light; when the driver tapped the accelerator, the battery would instantly get it going again. (Hybrids like the Prius do that, but at a substantial cost premium.)

A team at an infant company is using tiny carbon structures called nanotubes to store electricity. The goal is to create something the size of a flashlight battery, holding only about 30 percent as much energy, but able to charge or discharge in two seconds, almost forever.

The technology could form part of the battery pack for a car, cheaply delivering the energy for a jackrabbit start, without damaging conventional chemical batteries, which can store vastly more energy but can only accept or deliver it slowly.

It could also provide a cell phone battery that would charge in five minutes. That kind of battery is called a capacitor.

Joel Schindall, a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and a scientist on the project, pointed out that a capacitor was the original battery. Benjamin Franklin built a set of glass bottles that stored electricity and released it all at once; he called it a battery because, like guns, the bottles fired simultaneously.

But the nanotubes are modern. The walls of the tubes are about 12 atoms thick, and they grow, like leaves of grass, with just enough space between them to provide docking stations for charged particles. So a lot of charged particles can fit into a small space, with very light structures. He compares the device to a book shelf with very thin shelves placed exactly far enough apart to accommodate the books.

Because the connection is physical, not chemical, the charged particles can attach and detach almost instantly. The result is a small, light, powerful package.

The project started out with a doctoral candidate, Riccardo Signorelli, using tweezers to put tiny squares of aluminum into a vacuum chamber and then pumping in a hydrocarbon gas.

When heated, the hydrogen burns away and the carbon atoms arrange themselves into tubes. The breakthrough was doing that on a surface that would conduct electricity.

Signorelli, now with his Ph.D., is chief executive of FastCap Systems, which, with government help, is converting an industrial loft into a factory.

‘Materials genome’ In another MIT lab, Gerbrand Ceder is developing a “materials genome,” using computers to predict the qualities of materials that could be used in batteries and then fabricating the ones that the computer finds promising. A materials genome would speed the distribution of knowledge about materials and make development of new materials faster, he said, an idea that impresses officials at the Energy Department.

ARPA-E invested $3.2 million in a battery developed with a ma-

rant, bar or museum, alerting their friends on Facebook of their presence. They will then be able to see, using the service, any friends that are nearby, as well as other people who have checked in at the same location and have agreed to have their location broadcast widely.

Users will also be able to tag friends who are with them, and the service will suggest other nearby locations that users may be interested in. Check-ins will be broadcast in status updates that will appear in a variety of places, including the pages of a user’s friends and the Places page for that location.

“This is not a service to broadcast your location at all times, but rather one to share where you are, who you are with, when you want to,” said Michael Sharon, product manager for Places. “It lets you find friends that are nearby and help you discover nearby places.”

Industry flinches at Google TV

By Dawn C. Chmielewski and Jessica Guynn Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — Google revolutionized the way people access information. Now it wants to transform how people get entertainment.

The search giant is touting an ambitious new technology, called Google TV, that would marry the Internet with traditional television, enabling viewers to watch TV shows and movies unshackled from the broadcast networks or cable channels on which they air. Users would need to buy a TV or set-top box with Google software that could connect to the

Internet, along with a keyboard to type commands. Users could also use their iPhone or Android phone to operate Google TV. The prospect of Google getting into television frightens many in Hollywood, who worry that Silicon Valley will upend the entertainment industry just like the Internet ravaged the music and newspaper industries.

By bringing the Web directly to the living room TV, entertainment industry executives fear Google TV will encourage consumers to ditch their $70 monthly cable and satellite subscriptions in favor of watching video free via the Internet.

Others believe it will fan piracy because Google refuses to block access to bootleg movies and television shows.

And, perhaps most troubling to Hollywood, Google doesn’t yet know how it will make money on Google TV — and whether it intends to compensate the studios and networks for the content.

“It’s kind of an end-run around their control of signal, and that’s scary,” said Harold Vogel, president of media investment firm Vogel Capital Management, of broadcasters’ response to Google TV. “Because if you don’t control the signal, then you can’t provide your own

terials genome in a startup company, run by Ceder, that is exploring magnesium. In batteries today, whether they are lithiumion or old-fashioned lead-acid, an atom shuttles between the positive and negative terminal, carrying a single electron, as the battery charges and discharges.

But a magnesium atom would carry two electrons, so a battery storing a given amount of energy could be nearly halved in size and weight.

Plants as fuel Another approach being financed by ARPA-E is to convert the tremendous amount of energy stored by plants and trees to a car fuel.

Scientists are tantalized by plants and trees because they store far more energy than is consumed by cars, trucks, trains and planes, and they do it by taking carbon out of the atmosphere. But they do not give that energy back in an easy-to-use form, at least not without taking millions of years to turn into oil.

Instead, they make energy-bearing sugars in a form called cellulose, which forms the sinew or skeleton of the plant.

Cellulose is hard to break down. “Cotton is pure cellulose,” said Eric Toone, who is Danielson’s counterpart for biofuels at the Energy Department. “When you take your cotton shirt and put it in a washing machine, it still comes out as a cotton shirt.”

Engineers have tried using steam, acids and enzymes to break cellulose into useful sugars. The enzymes are usually made by gene-modified bacteria or fungi and resemble the saliva of termites, which is notoriously good at dissolving cellulose. So far, none are commercial, but with Energy Department help, some researchers are trying new methods.

advertising. It really destroys the legacy business model.”

Google sees its role as harnessing the power of the Internet to improve television viewing.

“We want to use the Internet to change the television experience,” said Vincent Dureau, Google’s head of TV technology. “There’s no secret plan.

We’re not designing a rocket that’s going to the moon. At the end of the day, the story’s simple. We’re putting a browser in the TV to enable a whole bunch of things that the studios and the networks are already doing today, but in a less disjointed fashion.”

The small country on the Adriatic Sea hopes to use foreign investment to create a playground for the superrich and clean up its image of corruption.

New York Times News Service

TIVAT, Montenegro — “This is better than St. Tropez,” Milo Djukanovic, the prime minister of Montenegro, exclaimed as he took in a display of yachts berthed in this mountain-shrouded bay on the eastern shore of the Adriatic Sea. Hardly. But if Djukanovic and a group of foreign businessmen supporting him have their way, the port of Tivat, now just 20 percent complete, could become a new playground for the super-rich and the centerpiece of tiny Montenegro’s audacious effort to clean up its image of corruption and gain entry to the European Union.

With a population of about 670,000, Montenegro is a country roughly the size of Connecticut that achieved independence only in 2006.

With its boundless mountains that drop straight into the Adriatic, Montenegro is, as Lord Byron once declared, very much the “most beautiful merging of land and sea.”

But Djukanovic’s ambitious plan to leverage these stunning natural assets to attract foreign investment has drawn plenty of criticism.

“This country is for sale,” said Vanja Calovic, who leads Mans, a corruption watchdog affiliated with Transparency International. “Montenegro is selling everything it has, and I am just not sure what the country is getting out of all this.”

There is no question that the Djukanovic government is

investment-friendly.

The corporate and income tax rates of 9 percent are among the lowest in Europe. And in a bid to pave the way for the Tivat project, parliament cut the valueadded tax for port-related items to 7 percent from 17 percent — a move that drew a rebuke from the European Commission as being anticompetitive. Supporters say that in a competitive investment world, small countries like Montenegro need to pull out all the stops to attract foreign capital.

But many say Djukanovic’s pell-mell salesmanship is itself a reflection of an unseemly mix

of business and politics here that highlights the potential for corruption and shady dealings.

Djukanovic, for example, has a 2.8 percent stake in First Bank, the country’s second-largest bank. His brother has a 46 percent position. Djukanovic’s pay, public records show, is only 1,256 euros a month, but critics have long charged that the prime minister and other parliamentarians supplement their low salaries via a web of outside business interests. In 2006, when Djukanovic stepped down temporarily as prime minister but remained in parliament, he started a real esHospice Home Health Hospice House Transitions

A spokeswoman for the prime minister said Djukanovic “was indeed involved in private business after he stepped down, but now that he is the prime minister again, he is completely committed to his public role and has suspended all his business activities and relinquished his managerial powers.”

‘Science fiction stuff’ Take Michael Raab, whose startup, Agrivida, in Medford, Mass., is tinkering with the genes of grass and sorghum to develop plants that make the enzymes internally and digest their own cellulose on cue, leaving behind a murky brown concoction of sugars that can be converted into gasoline, diesel or jet fuel.

Deep inside their cells, his plants produce a smooth, nonreactive molecule, but when the plant is exposed to heat and a change in acidity, the molecule breaks open, like a beer bottle smashed against the bar. The jagged edges are enzymes. They rip apart cell walls and leave fragments that are useful sugars.

Sugars — both the common kind that comes in paper packets for coffee and some more exotic types — can be converted by yeast into ethanol, a technology known since ancient times. Or they can be fed to gene-altered bacteria that will excrete diesel or gasoline components. Or they can be converted chemically, with catalysts.

All these steps, including the tricky one of recovering sugar from cellulose, can be done already, but not cheaply enough to produce tens of billions of gallons a year.

The Energy Department is putting $4.6 million into Agrivida, and similar sums into other startup firms, many of them intent on finding gasoline substitutes. It is, said one department official, “real science fiction stuff,” ideas promising enough to attract a few million dollars for research but not quite promising enough to draw the private capital required for small-scale production.

If you can’t cut yourself off, these responsible cards will New MasterCard product will allow customers to set very specific limits

nesses could limit their employees’ use to weekdays or to construction supply stores. (Many commercial cards from MasterCard and others already work like this.)

What’s in it for banks?

By Ron Lieber New York Times News Service

Coming soon: credit and debit cards that cut you off when you disregard your own monthly budget.

MasterCard announced Tuesday that Citigroup will be the first company in the United States to issue MasterCards with special features intended to protect consumers not only from thieves but also from themselves.

The service, called inControl and already in use by some Barclaycard holders in Britain, is a sort of financial chastity belt that offers the potential to prevent a variety of budget sins and other money traps.

Worried about your restaurant habit? If your bank adopts MasterCard’s service, you could tell it to have your debit or credit card reject any restaurant purchase above whatever monthly cap you set.

Sick of your credit card number falling into the hands of thieves?

Tell your card issuer to never allow charges originating from the fraud-prone countries that end in “stan” or “ia.” (Don’t worry: You can instruct your bank to make an exception for Australia during the few weeks that you’ll be honeymooning in Sydney.)

Or, if you don’t want to get too fancy, you could simply make sure your bank never lets you spend more than you have in your checking account by having your credit card shut off once you’ve reached the limit you set that corresponds to your monthly disposable income.

Enabling change At the moment, Visa doesn’t offer anything quite like this, though the company and the banks that issue its cards do offer alerts when you’ve reached certain spending thresholds. Discover and American Express don’t have any such features on their consumer cards either.

Citi customers will have to wait a bit to use the new MasterCard service. And when introduction begins in a few months, it will include only alerts for credit card customers; letting people set their

own spending limits will presumably come later. MasterCard says other banks will add inControl as well, though it won’t say which ones just yet.

Still, this is the sort of service that makes you slap your forehead and wonder why it didn’t exist before. It has the potential to solve the core problem with budgeting: It’s easy to make a spreadsheet and track what you spend, but it’s awfully hard to stick to the plan.

Changing behavior, in the end, is the biggest challenge. And now MasterCard seems to have made it possible for your bank to become a partner in your self-improvement instead of an enabler of your misdeeds.

The inControl system, at its most basic level, is intended to let people do two things: be warned about charges on their cards and block the wrong kinds of transactions.

Alerts can be sent when a purchase is made with a credit or debit card in particular geographical areas or at certain dollar levels. Also, if you use your card only for in-person purchases and never use it online or for recurring charges, you could arrange for an alert every time your card is used when you’re not present at the merchant ringing up your purchase. That way, if fraud is afoot you can call the company right away to cancel the charge.

If the alerts start to get annoying, you can alter them or turn them off at any time through your bank’s website or over the phone.

Third parties like Mint.com already offer such alerts. But Mint must log in to your bank’s site to retrieve updates, and it does that only every 24 hours unless you

log in separately. The inControl alerts happen in real time.

Budget nanny The real leap with inControl, however, is being able to turn off certain forms of spending altogether. Dining out is the one I sometimes have trouble keeping in check, but for you it might be your iTunes habit or something else. While inControl now sorts companies into merchant groups that you can set budgets for or ban altogether, MasterCard said that if it had enough demand for company-specific caps it would add those, too.

“The personalization of consumer products has reached far deeper than it ever has before,” said Ed McLaughlin of MasterCard, whose title is chief emerging payments officer. He added that he was well aware that financial services companies had lagged on this front for some time and that inControl was created to help banks catch up.

MasterCard hopes banks will use inControl to help consumers restrain other people’s spending, too. Your college-age child could be issued a card linked to your account with a limit of whatever monthly allowance you’ve agreed on (and maybe an automatic rejection for any charges at a bar or liquor store). That way, you keep any rewards for your child’s spending — and still keep an eye on where the money is going.

Employees can get the same treatment. A baby sitter, for instance, could get a card billed to you that doesn’t work on the Internet or outside of your state. People with cards for their small busi-

So what could stop inControlenabled cards and copycat products from showing up in millions of wallets? Plenty.

If consumers en masse got religious and placed a cap on their spending, credit card companies wouldn’t collect very much interest. So what incentive do these same companies have in helping people with their willpower?

When I asked McLaughlin how he would respond to card issuers who asked this question, he fell silent for several seconds. Then he said he would compliment their office decor. Why? “I think anyone knows that having a superior offering wins out in the long run,” he said. “To get that office, they would have to know that.”

Actually, there are several reasons for banks to sign up. Once consumers start setting limits, alerts and warnings for a particular credit or debit card, they’ll have a lot more reason to use that card every day, lest they lose the consolidated snapshot of their spending. Thus the bank makes more money from fees merchants pay to accept the cards.

Also, for a bank like Citi that’s still trying to win back its reputation, offering a service that helps consumers control spending can’t be bad for its image.

That said, the service isn’t foolproof. Even after you’ve hit your monthly limit, you will be able to turn your card back on via telephone (and eventually via a mobile app). And nothing’s stopping people from dipping into their wallets for cash or raiding the nearest ATM. So adopting inControl won’t be easy, and banks like Citi might take a year or two to fully integrate all the bells and whistles. Try to be patient and not pester them.

I’m convinced, however, that the ability to cut yourself off from certain kinds of spending will become a standard card feature sooner rather than later.

After all, now that this possibility is real, whether banks offer it or not will become a litmus test for sincerity. If they want to argue with a straight face that they’re in business to help their customers make prudent financial decisions, how could they not let people cap or block certain kinds of spending in any way they want?

Selecting a family CFO can limit money strife

By Dan Serra McClatchy-Tribune News Service

It takes a lot to manage a family’s finances, but too often no one is leading the way.

The result: husbands and wives fighting over money and heading toward divorce.

Money is one of the top reasons for divorce. Instead, families need to evaluate how they handle money to head off disputes. One way to do this is to make one person in charge.

The family’s “chief financial officer” would be responsible for managing the budget and investments for the family. This concept is discussed in length in “Your Life & Your Money,” a new book by Scott Feher, owner of an investment firm in Walnut Creek, Calif.

“Running a family’s financial affairs is like running a business,” he said. “The family CFO needs to create a mission statement, track monthly cash flow, review it to avoid overspending, take advantage of legal tax breaks and work with professional people hired to assist the family like accountants, lawyers and financial planners.”

The mission statement is the cornerstone of a family’s values in managing money.

This statement outlines the beliefs and goals the family is working toward. Is it paying off the house? Reducing debt? Saving for a vacation?

It can even be nonfinancial missions such as health and volunteering. It all gets listed

in the statement as a support to turn to when it’s time to discuss money, if it’s needed to remind a disputing family member why a certain decision is being made.

Analyzing expenses is perhaps the hardest part, especially having to hold family members accountable. The CFO must be given the power and support from family members to make decisions on what can and cannot be purchased, and to find the best deal on a purchase.

The second-hardest part is deciding how to invest the family’s money. Working with a financial planner can help the CFO make better decisions. The CFO must be smart enough to know that making uninformed decisions can wreck a family’s mission statement.

To help alleviate the work, Feher recommends a husband and wife take turns sharing the CFO role at agreed-upon intervals — the husband six months then the wife for six months. That way one spouse can’t accuse the other of being controlling. In addition, it makes both aware of the family’s financial situation.

Wick

Wick was heavily involved in the Prineville community, said Mary Thurman, who served on the board of the Prineville Hospital Foundation with Wick. Thurman said Wick, like Schwab, was dedicated to the community and building the company.

“He was part of this community,” Thurman said. “He represented the Les Schwab corporation with the same ideals as Les.” Wick retired from his role as president in December 2005, when he became chairman of the board of directors for three years. He stepped down in 2008 but stayed active on the board, the company said.

Wick owned a home in Redmond. He is survived by his wife, Lesley, and children, Jeff and Heather, and their families, according to the company.

Information about a memorial service is not yet available, the company said Wednesday.

“His enthusiasm and personal warmth was infectious and he will be deeply missed,” the company said.

Continued from B1 As a private company, it is the second-largest in Oregon, with revenues exceeding $1 billion a year, according to Oregon Business Magazine.

Les Schwab has more than 7,000 employees and 400 store locations.

Wick helped establish many of the company’s employee programs alongside Schwab, the company said in a news release. After taking over as president, he maintained a focus on customer experience, according to the company.

Cooper said Wick was a businessman at heart. Having started his career at Les Schwab and having never left, Wick knew the business better than almost anyone, Cooper said, adding that Wick’s talent was in sales.

“Phil would have moved to Mars if it would have improved the bottom line,” Cooper said, adding that Wick also was loyal. “He started there and intended to die there.”

Child care

nation of thousands of child care provider jobs, the campaign says.

Angie Sandlin has run an in-home state-certified child care facility in Bend for 12 years. Sandlin said she has a handful of clients who receive the subsidy through DHS, and doesn’t think most of them could continue to pay for child care if they’re cut from the program.

“Basically, if that program is cut, they’re unable to pay for their child care, so they will have to quit their jobs unless we can work out some kind of agreement with the parents,” she said.

Evans said the decision to cut the child care program was a difficult choice for DHS. “I don’t think people are crying wolf; I think this is a cut that does inflict real hardship on families,” he said. “If you’re working a low-wage job and trying to do the right thing and keep your family together, having this subsidy removed is a hardship. These are cuts to service — and people feel it.”

Continued from B1 DHS spokesman Gene Evans said Gov. Ted Kulongoski instructed the agency to cut its budget by 9 percent overall, and the child care program was targeted for deeper cuts.

Evans said annual spending on the program would shrink from $34 million to $17 million.

“This is one of the places where the state dollars are,” he said. “Many of the programs are federally funded and those aren’t subject to the cut. We need to save state tax revenues under the governor’s orders, and the entire universe gets limited as to where you can cut.”

Portland-based nonprofit Children First for Oregon has organized a campaign asking Oregonians to lobby their state legislators to reverse the cuts.

The campaign cites a survey performed by the University of Oregon and Oregon State University that suggests nearly all recipients of the DHS subsidy would be unable to continue working if the subsidy were removed.

Eliminating the subsidy would also result in the elimi-

THE BULLETIN • Thursday, August 19, 2010 B5

health, other analysts have offered projections suggesting that may happen.

“A year ago, we weren’t sure they were going to survive,” said Michele Krebs, senior analyst at Edmunds.com, an auto industry site. “The company deserves a great deal of credit.”

Even so, the task of selling investors on the stock lies ahead.

Moreover, the company faces many challenges, and its record of restored profits has been short.

“They’ve had two decent quarters,” Krebs said. “I would have liked to have seen a string of them before the stock offering.”

At presentations to investors in the coming weeks, GM is expected to tout the fact that through the bankruptcy, it has shed most of the debts that had constrained it financially; that it is well positioned in China and Brazil, where much of the growth in global auto demand is forecast; and that it has cut costs by shutting plants and laying off workers so that it can now turn a profit even in tough economic times.

Yet while this year’s first-quarter profit was the company’s first in nearly three years, and the second quarter was also profitable, company officials have acknowledged that the level of profits may decline during the rest of the year.

“I do expect our results to moderate for the second half of the year,” the company’s chief financial officer, Chris Liddell, said last week.

Despite such risks, some analysts said investors could view General Motors in an almost patriotic light.

“Many American citizens, even if they object to the manner of the bankruptcy and the way the government took over, want GM to be successful,” said Linda Killian, a portfolio manager at Renaissance Capital.

Continued from B1 But the fact that General Motors is moving to sell shares on the market is a reflection of the renewed confidence in a company that just a year ago, staggered by debt and years of declining market share, slouched toward financial ruin.

The stakes in the stock offering are political as well as financial.

While the government rescue of GM began under the Bush administration, it was the Obama administration that pumped the larger share of federal money into the automaker in exchange for a majority stake. The Obama administration also forced the company to restructure and pushed out then-chief executive Rick Wagoner, who is now a board member of The Washington Post Co. Critics called the Obama administration’s control of GM tantamount to socialism. But the president has touted the rescue as a measure that saved 1 million jobs and restored an important American company.

“There’s the ‘just say no’ crowd in Washington — they’re still saying no — who basically said, ‘Well, this is a terrible investment.

We should just let the market take its course, let GM, let Chrysler go bankrupt,’” Obama said on a recent trip to Michigan. “So there was a lot of skepticism out there.

But we made the decision to step in.”

Now, whether the government can recoup its investment will be a test for some as to whether the bailout was justified.

Some analysts, including the Government Accountability Office, have cast doubt that the government will ever recoup all of its money. But in recent months, in light of the company’s restored

Eggs

County packaged eggs under its brand without permission.)

Albertsons spokeswoman Lilia Rodriguez said no tainted eggs were shipped to the company’s stores in the West or intermountain West.

Consumers were told to return the eggs to stores.

Braden said that it was not yet possible to say how many people had fallen ill in the outbreak although it certainly numbered in the hundreds. Typically in salmonella outbreaks, only about one in 30 cases is reported to authorities, he said, so thousands of people may have been affected.

He said there were no reports of deaths.

The company said the recalled eggs came from five plants and were distributed across the country under the brand names Lucerne, Albertson, Mountain Dairy, Ralph’s, Boomsma’s, Sunshine, Hillandale, Trafficanda, Farm Fresh, Shoreland, Lund, Dutch Farms, Kemps, James Farms, Glenview and Pacific Coast.

How the IPO will work for investors DETROIT — General Motors on Wednesday filed with the SEC its registration for its initial public offering.

Not sure what preferred shares are or whether you can buy some of GM’s stock?

We answer your questions about GM’s IPO filing.

Q: A:

When will these shares actually go on sale?

The so-called S-1 filing (the registration statement and preliminary prospectus) is the first piece of paper to outline the IPO and much more paperwork will be rolling out the door in weeks ahead. The IPO deal itself may not be completed for two or three months. We don’t know an exact month or date. But some experts say the deal might get done in October; others say maybe November.

Q:

I never sold my shares in the old GM. Will that entitle me any special opportunity to buy shares in the new GM? No. If you owned shares in the old GM, you do not get any special break to buy new shares.

A:

Q: A:

Who are the likely buyers of most of the shares in the new entity?

Those shares will go to JPMorgan Chase, Morgan Stanley and other investment banks underwriting the offering. Individual investors will then be able to buy and sell on the New York Stock Exchange.

Jay Ritter, Cordell professor of finance at the University of Florida-Gainesville, said the big institutional investors that would buy shares in the GM

rhea, vomiting and stomach pains. In rare cases, it can cause more serious illness, including arterial infections.

The pathogen is transferred to eggs by infected hens and it can be found inside eggs that appear normal. The bacteria is destroyed by heat but people can become sick if they eat raw or incompletely cooked eggs. Federal regulators have grappled with the problem of salmonella in eggs since it first emerged in the 1980s. But proposals to improve regulations were largely unsuccessful until a year ago, when the Food and Drug Administration announced a new set of rules, which became effective July 9.

Hinda Mitchell, a spokes-

IPO would likely include mutual funds and hedge funds representing their limited partners.

That means the new GM stock later might be found in wellknown mutual funds, university endowments and corporate pension plans.

Q: A:

How does the average person get shares in a new GM IPO? Talk to your broker or financial adviser. Josef Schuster, the Chicago-based founder of IPOX Capital Management LLC, which oversees $3 billion, noted that he believes the government will make a sizeable part of the offering available to retail investors.

However, Peter Henning, a Wayne State University law professor and securities law expert, cautions that buying on the very first day sometimes means smaller investors pay a higher price because often there is a short-term surge with IPOs followed by a drop and stabilizing pattern. But this offering is unusual because of the large ownership stake of the U.S. government.

Q: A:

I buy and sell stocks online. Will I have a chance to buy shares of the new GM? Quite possibly. This is a huge offering, so it’s possible that Charles Schwab and other discount brokers could have some shares to allocate to their account-holders. But brokerages work with their best customers when it comes to any IPO. So if you have $2,000 or $3,000 in an account, you’re not likely to get any shares. Talk to your broker or financial adviser.

LILY RAFF

Young gun shooting for the top

T

he year is 2010, but that won’t stop Chance Koch from his quest to be the fastest draw in the West.

The Redmond 16-year-old is a sudden phenom in a sport called Cowboy Action Shooting, in which contestants assume clever aliases, don shiny Western garb and attempt to shoot a series of targets using old-fashioned pistols, rifles and shotguns as fast as possible.

I met Chance this week at a shooting range east of Bend, along with some other members of the local club, the Horse Ridge Pistoleros.

The teen, who competes under the alias “Last Chance Morales,” will travel to Albany this weekend to defend his state championship. Last year he became the youngest Oregonian ever to take the honor. And next summer, he’ll try to defend his world championship in an event called Wild Bunch.

Like most kids, Chance tried lots of sports: football, tae kwon do and jiujitsu, to name a few. He says the martial arts helped quicken his reflexes.

But none was as much fun as yanking a revolver out of a holster Chance Koch and firing away, Spaghetti Western-style.

That’s due, in part, to a childhood surrounded by guns. His father, J.W. Koch, has owned Gun Traders in Redmond for about 28 years. When a rare gun comes in, Chance identifies it without consulting books or the Internet. If it’s a military gun, he can probably list the major conflicts in which it was used.

But don’t think Chance’s shooting accolades have come easily. A fierce competitive streak and countless hours of practice have catapulted Chance to the top of this growing sport.

The Single Action Shooting Society, which oversees competitions nationwide, started in the 1980s and now has nearly 90,000 members. Most of them, after watching Chance shoot, just stare at the stopwatch and wonder: How does he do it?

“I watch what a lot of other people do, and then I try something different, to see if it’s faster,” Chance says simply.

His mother, Vicki Koch, remembers watching television one day and hearing a recurring thump from Chance’s bedroom, upstairs.

She found Chance loading and unloading the magazine from his 1911 pistol. As the magazine fell out of the gun, it landed on the floor with a thud.

“A lot of people shoot fast but don’t load very fast,” he explains.

Chance actually has trouble finding guns that accommodate his speed.

Even with a specially made rifle, for example, he often pulls the trigger, advances the next bullet into the chamber and pulls the trigger again before the gun’s own hammer is ready to fire a second shot. He went through three custom-made rifles before finding one fast enough.

Before a competition, Chance walks through his shooting routine. He shapes his hands as if they’re cradling a gun.

He imagines the recoil, the noise.

“I took a class in self-hypnosis one time, and it’s helped a lot,” he adds.

Much of the sport, he says, is mental. In the past, one tiny misstep would throw off his whole performance. So he tried chewing gum. He found that as his hands and feet fly through the shooting course, the rhythm of chewing helps his mind slow down so he makes better decisions on the fly.

After seeing how it improved his time, Chance’s father started chewing gum during competitions, too.

“It works,” J.W. says.

The Redmond High School student is working nights this summer as a janitor.

But he dreams of making a living as a professional shooter.

“If I could win cash, I wouldn’t have to clean toilets at 1:30 in the morning in a haunted senior center,” he says with a laugh.

Federal law prohibits people under 21 from transporting handguns, so for now, Chance relies on his parents to drive his weapons to competitions.

But like all great gunslingers, from Billy the Kid to Wyatt Earp, “Last Chance” is eager to hit the trail on his own.

Where to redraw the lot lines?

Residents with inaccurate property lines say path to a solution will be long — and could be costly

By Hillary Borrud The Bulletin

Deschutes County has spent $8,750 for an aerial survey and passed an ordinance to make it easier for property owners to change their lot lines.

But a year into the county’s effort to help residents of a neighborhood who want to fix their historical lot line problems, the property owners say they still have a lot of work to do.

County officials held a meeting Wednesday to talk about the next steps property owners must take if they want to resolve the problems in the neighborhood, but some owners were frustrated and said the solution is still unclear — and probably costly.

For decades, residents in the neighborhood south of Burgess Road and east of Dorrance Meadow Road near La Pine had property lines different

from what is described in their property deeds. The neighborhood of approximately 200 lots was laid out incorrectly by a private surveyor in the 1950s, according to Deschutes County staff and documents.

The lot line problems have made it difficult for residents to build new structures, refinance mortgages and sell their properties.

Discrepancies between observed lot lines and property deeds are a common problem in Deschutes County, said Dave Inbody, assistant to the Deschutes County administrator.

“A lot of the surveys that were done

in the ’50s and ’60s were not necessarily accurate to the extent they needed to be,” Inbody said.

“This is probably the biggest one, and the most egregious difference between where they live and where their property needs to be.”

Some lots are off by 50 percent, and at least one home is actually located on another person’s property, according to current deeds, Inbody added.

“The precedent can’t necessarily be set that we’re going to pay for it, because there’s lots like this all over the county,” Inbody said.

Students keep sports alive

Rob Kerr / The Bulletin

Crook County High School soccer players scrimmage Wednesday afternoon at the school. Facing a budget shortfall, the Crook County School District had to pull the majority of funding for athletics. So this year, before Crook County athletes can play, they have to raise the funds to foot their own bills. The soccer players have washed cars and painted fire hydrants to raise money to play this year.

As Crook County district cuts funding, athletes pay their own way “I think every sport will go forward with a full schedule and fully funded.

And with the economy the way it is, people are giving until it hurts and then just a little bit more. And my gosh, you can’t do anything but be grateful you live in such a great place.”

— Doug Smith, father of two sons who play sports

By Lauren Dake The Bulletin

Along with kicking, running and shooting baskets, Crook County athletes will once again have to add something else if they want to compete: fundraising.

So far, they have painted the city’s fire hydrants. There have been car washes, yard sales and bottle drives. After horse races, it was student athletes cleaning the stalls.

And the community is pitching in, too: new uniforms were donated by Facebook, which recently built a new data center in Prine-

ville. Instead of hiring their usual contractors, city officials asked athletes if they would like to paint the hydrants. Other businesses and individual community members have donated.

Everything paid for by high school athletes Once again, Crook County athletes will be on the fields and courts this school year because they were able to foot their own bills. Coaches and referee fees, uniforms, participation fees and any new equipment will have to be

paid for by the athletes.

In order to eliminate a budget shortfall, the Crook County School District pulled funding for athletics in spring 2009.

The school district has not been able to reinstate the funding since.

Save for $75,000 the district dedicates for transportation costs, the players, their parents and the community are on the hook for everything.

“I think every sport will go forward with a full schedule and fully funded,” said Doug Smith, who has two sons who play sports.

Bend man attempts escape from courtroom

By Erin Golden The Bulletin

A Bend man who accepted a plea deal in a kidnapping case is now facing additional charges, after he punched a corrections deputy and tried to escape from a courtroom as he was headed back to jail.

Caleb Benjamin Goodpasture, 20, was scheduled to go to trial this week on charges stemming from a May incident in northwest Bend, in which he held four people, including his estranged wife and baby, at knifepoint.

But Tuesday morning, after a few hours of negotiation, Goodpasture decided to accept a last-minute deal. He agreed to plead guilty to second-degree

kidnapping, unlawful use of a weapon, coercion and first-degree burglary, along with an assault charge related to an incident in April.

Deschutes County Caleb Deputy District AttorGoodpasture ney Brandi Shroyer said the negotiations included discussions about a possible sentence — her office recommended 7½ years in prison — and mention that Goodpasture would need to undergo a psychological evaluation before sentencing.

Just before noon, court was ad-

journed. But when two deputies tried to escort him from the courtroom, Goodpasture refused, telling them he wanted to talk to his family before going back to jail. According to police, the deputies sensed trouble and radioed for backup.

They were joined by another deputy and a Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office detective, who was in another courtroom.

Physical struggle with deputies The deputies asked everyone still in the courtroom to leave. Goodpasture then got into a physical struggle with deputies and made a run for the door.

Officer Rob Emerson of the Bend Police Department said Goodpasture was not wearing handcuffs. Because he had been scheduled for trial, he was wearing dress clothes rather than a jail jumpsuit. He was, however, wearing a leg brace designed to allow normal walking but to lock up if the person wearing it starts to run.

“He advanced toward the exit of the courtroom and got pretty close, but they were able to pin him up against a wall prior to the door and head him off,” Emerson said.

Two deputies received minor injuries in the scuffle, but were able to take Goodpasture into custody.

Bend teen advances in ‘America’s Got Talent’ Bend resident Connor Doran survived the wild card round on the NBC show “America’s Got Talent� Wednesday night and will be taking his indoor kite flying to the semifinals next week.

A 17-year-old incoming senior at Mountain View High School and son of Bulletin reporter Tim Doran, Connor was one of four acts to be voted through to the semifinals during the wild card round. The remaining 24 performers will be competing for a $1 million prize and a chance to headline their own show in Las Vegas.

During Wednesday night’s results show, judge Howie Mandel said he’d been approached on the street by people raving about Connor’s performance and that radio host Howard Stern told him Connor was his favorite act on the show.

Connor is scheduled to appear in the semifinals at 9 p.m.

Schools task force to discuss use of $15M The Redmond School District will assemble a task force of about 16 members to help decide how to spend roughly $15 million in savings from bondrelated projects.

In 2008, district voters approved a $110 million bond to build a new high school, an elementary school and perform upgrades at district buildings.

But because of competitive project bidding, the work has come in under budget.

The district has two basic choices. Redmond schools could spend the savings on capital projects such as improvements at Redmond High School or a sports stadium at the new high school. The district could also return the money to taxpayers.

The average tax refund has not been calculated yet.

The district could also spend

the money in a combination of those ways.

On Aug. 31, the district will begin recruiting task force members. The task force will be composed of teachers, staff, parents and district residents, and it will meet Sept. 28, Oct. 12 and Oct. 26 before making a recommendation to the school board, according to a district staff report.

Once the task force makes a recommendation on how to spend the money, the district will hold three public meetings — Oct. 27, Nov. 10 and Nov. 17 — and the board is scheduled to make its final decision during the last November meeting, according to a district staff report.

Opening ceremony set for trail segment A ceremony to celebrate the opening of the newest segment of the Deschutes River Trail will be held Tuesday at 5:30 p.m., according to a news release.

The event will be held at Pioneer Park on 1525 N.W. Wall St. and will celebrate the latest addition of the Deschutes River Trail running through Pioneer Park.

The new trail starts along the front of the Bend Riverside Motel condominiums and ends at the Davis Park Natural Area below the end of Revere Avenue.

The public is invited to the ceremony.

TODAY’S HIGHLIGHT IN HISTORY On Aug. 19, 1960, a tribunal in Moscow convicted American U2 pilot Francis Gary Powers of espionage, two days after his 31st birthday. (Although sentenced to 10 years’ imprisonment, Powers was returned to the United States in 1962 as part of a prisoner exchange.)

In 1990, Leonard Bernstein conducted what turned out to be the last concert of his career at Tanglewood in Lenox, Mass., with the Boston Symphony Orchestra; the program ended with Beethoven’s Symphony No. 7.

(The coup attempt collapsed two days later.)

TEN YEARS AGO Norwegian divers with video equipment went down to the sunken Russian submarine Kursk in a final attempt to find survivors trapped for a week, even though Russian officials said all 118 seamen aboard were probably dead.

FIVE YEARS AGO A Texas jury found pharmaceutical giant Merck and Co. liable for the death of a man who’d taken the once-popular painkiller Vioxx, awarding his widow $253.4 million in damages.

(Texas caps on punitive damages reduced that figure to about $26 million; a Texas court overturned the verdict in May 2008.) Attackers firing Katyusha rockets narrowly missed a U.S. amphibious assault ship docked at the Red Sea resort of Aqab, but killed a Jordanian soldier. Britain’s former Northern Ireland chief, Mo Mowlam, died in Canterbury, England; she was 55.

ONE YEAR AGO Suicide bombers struck Iraq’s finance and foreign ministries,

killing more than 100 people. Four members of an elite Army special operations unit were killed when their helicopter crashed on a Colorado mountain during a training mission. Don Hewitt, the TV news pioneer who created CBS’ “60 Minutes,� died at his Long Island, N.Y. home at age 86.

Woman rescued after fall down cliff The Associated Press CLACKAMAS — A Clackamas Fire District 1 spokesman says an 86-year-old woman was airlifted to a Portland hospital Wednesday after falling down a 50-foot cliff behind a manufactured home park.

Spokesman Steve McAdoo described the unidentified woman as “alert but confused� and said she did not appear to be seri-

ously injured. She was airlifted to Legacy Emanuel Medical Center.

McAdoo said the cliff falls away at a steep angle for about 25 feet, then straight down for another 25 feet.

He says the woman’s elderly husband tried to help her but was got stuck, unhurt, after climbing halfway down. McAdoo said the man is fine now.

O Jackie O’s half-brother pleads guilty to child porn charges The Associated Press

James Auchincloss

MEDFORD — James Auchincloss — who as a boy carried the wedding train of his half-sister Jackie up the aisle as she married John F. Kennedy — has pleaded guilty to charges he possessed child pornography.

The 63-year-old Auchincloss was sentenced Wednesday to 30 days in jail and three years’ probation on two felony counts of encouraging child sex abuse, the

charge generally brought against people possessing child pornography.

Auchincloss was indicted a year ago on 25 counts after his longtime personal assistant, Edward McManus, told investigators he had seen Auchincloss and co-defendant Dennis Vickoren viewing pictures of naked boys in sexual poses at Auchincloss’ home in Ashland.

Vickoren received the same sentence Wednesday.

O B OHSU research funding hits $392M PORTLAND — Oregon Health & Science University says it received a record $392 million in research funding for its 2010 fiscal year.

The figure included $70 million in stimulus funding from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. The previous record was $307 million last year.

Among the health research projects that received funding were a study of the biological markers of Alzheimer’s disease, a survey of the availability and effectiveness of cancer screening in rural Oregon and a study of factors that result in the development of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.

OHSU officials said the research also helps fuel the state economy, including spinoff companies started by OHSU faculty.

Prosecutors: Accused bombers of bank were anti-government Doors Closing Forever in September!

Attorneys cite witness statements that son, father celebrated 1995 Oklahoma City strike

By Tim Fought

The two are accused in the December 2008 bombing of a bank in Woodburn that killed local police Capt. Tom Tennant and State Police bomb expert William Hakim. Police Chief Scott Russell lost his right leg, and bank employee Laurie Ann Perkett was cut.

The Associated Press

SALEM — Prosecutors provided a glimpse Wednesday of their strategy in the upcoming trial of a father and son accused of killing two law enforcement officers in an Oregon bank explosion, saying the defendants harbored anti-government sentiment and were jubilant over the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing.

In a pretrial hearing in state court, prosecutors cited witness statements that said Bruce Turnidge pumped his fist in the air on hearing of the destruction of the Oklahoma City federal building that left 168 dead.

Prosecutors said they had evidence that his son, Josh, echoed his views.

Jury selection to begin in September Jury selection is expected to begin early in September, and testimony may start near the end of the month. Lawyers estimate the trial will take three months.

At the hearing Wednesday, defense lawyers sought to limit what the prosecution could say during jury selection and opening statements about the Turnidges’ actions before the bombing about 30 miles south of Portland.

Descriptions of what the two did years ago could be excluded as evidence. Defense lawyer Steven Gorham said they shouldn’t

be allowed in the trial’s early going.

“We think that prejudices the jury from the get-go,” he said.

The team of prosecutors said it would present several motives for the bombing of the West Coast Bank branch, including financial gain and hatred for government.

Judge Thomas Hart said the prosecution could refer to some, though not all, of the previous acts.

But he said that references to either one of the defendants couldn’t be used against the other. For example, the prosecution can’t say: “Look what Mr. Bruce Turnidge said. You should flush Mr. Joshua Turnidge down the drain because of it,” he said.

In another ruling, Hart refused Gorham’s request to allow Josh Turnidge to ask questions of potential jurors.

Prosecutors have said they’ll seek the death penalty, although it has rarely been carried out in recent decades in Oregon.

Low membership closes 2 Granges

By Inka Bajandas The (Roseburg) News-Review

ROSEBURG — The Grange has always been a part of Beverly Doescher’s life.

“I accuse my mom and dad of conceiving me on a Grange bench,” the 69-year-old Azalea resident said. “My social life as a child was the Grange.”

Involvement with the fraternal farmers’ organization, founded in the 1860s, was commonplace in Douglas County when Doescher was a child. She’s now master of the Azalea Grange and the Pomona Douglas County Grange.

To this day, Grange members, who are no longer just farmers, meet in halls throughout the county. They organize events such as garage sales, potlucks and dances, take up community service projects and lobby cities and the county on behalf of local causes.

But finding young members at a Douglas County Grange is becoming harder. Aging membership and difficulty recruiting

new members are major factors that contributed to the recent closure of two of Douglas County’s 11 Granges.

Riversdale Grange in Roseburg closed in June and members of the Fair Oaks Community Grange in Sutherlin plan to hold their last meeting today. Members of some of the remaining Granges say they’ve also had difficulty with recruitment, but are still slowly gaining members.

“Quite frankly, we’re tired,” said Diane Cox, longtime Fair Oaks Community Grange member and Sutherlin resident.

Cox, 60, who joined the Grange as a junior member when she was 10 years old, said it’s been just three families barely managing to keep the Fair Oaks Community Grange afloat as efforts to recruit new members failed.

Members were forced to make the difficult decision to close after finding out the Grange can’t afford repairs to one of their buildings, she said.

“We’re heartbroken, but at

the same time it’s a relief. We’ve fought hard, and we can’t fight anymore,” Cox said.

Meanwhile, members of some of the nine remaining Granges say it has been tough competing with modern distractions to draw people into joining the decades old farmer’s group.

“We’re ever competing with cyberspace, with computers,” said Linda Soper, 53, secretary of the Melrose Grange, which celebrates its 100th anniversary in December.

The Internet has been a particularly harsh blow to Granges because it brings people together in ways a Grange once did, she said.

Granges join other fraternal organizations, such as Moose and Elks clubs, that are struggling, said Dixonville resident John Fine, 61, who was a member of the Riversdale Grange. Like Fair Oaks, the main reason Riversdale shut down was because of low membership, Fine said.

The Grange had difficulty having a quorum at meetings, he said.

Dudley joins government ‘reset’ efforts

R

epublican gubernatorial candidate Chris Dudley released his government reform plan this week, just as Oregonians were reminded — again — how badly reform is

needed. On Tuesday, Gov. Ted Kulongoski told state leaders the

cost of state government will probably outstrip tax collections by an even wider margin than previously expected. On the very same day, Oregonians learned that the state’s unemployment rate in July was, yet again, above 10 percent. There continues to be a profound mismatch between the state’s sputtering economic engine and the enormous load it’s expected to pull.

Dudley’s campaign hasn’t been flawless. His reluctance to debate opponent John Kitzhaber is worrisome, and his opposition to a tribal casino in Cascade Locks belies his stated support for economic development and job creation. But certain elements of his government reform plan make perfectly good sense.

Among other things, Dudley proposes to do the following: • Chip away at the so-called “6 percent pickup,” by which most public employers (taxpayers) “pick up” the contributions their employees must make to their own retirements.

These contributions are separate from PERS, or the Public Employees Retirement System.

• Require state employees to help pay for their own health insurance, as public school teachers do now.

Currently, most state employees pay nothing for health care.

• Increase transparency by budgeting for and reporting total compensation (pay plus benefits) for public employees. Given the generosity of public-sector benefits, referring only to the salaries of public employees is highly misleading.

Dudley proposes a number of other changes as well: excluding new legislators and judges from PERS, privatizing government services when possible, ending the state’s monopoly on liquor sales and dedicating 3 percent of state revenue to a rainy day fund.

But the proposals related to public employee compensation are particularly noteworthy because they’re so familiar. They echo the recommendations made by Kulongoski’s Reset Cabinet and subsequently supported enthusiastically by the governor himself.

And what does Kitzhaber think about the 6 percent pickup and so on?

We have absolutely no idea.

His spokeswoman, Jillian Schoene, did tell us that Kitzhaber “is the only candidate in this race who has actually engaged public employees and said, ‘These are the issues we’re going to have to tackle, and we’re going to have to tackle them together.’” She wouldn’t be more specific than that, though she did say of Dudley’s efforts: “The plan and everything included in it are not his own.”

Frankly, we would be happy to

This week’s events demonstrate that the Reset Cabinet’s findings, as many believed, are beginning to shape the debate between Dudley and Kitzhaber, just as they’ll influence legislative battles across the state. Kitzhaber’s determination to engage public employees in the process early is laudable.

But eventually he’ll have to acknowledge not only that their compensation threatens the sustainability of state government, but also that he’s willing to impose fiscal discipline whether they like it or not. implement a plan cobbled together

by Martians if it improved the state’s economy and stabilized the cost of government. But reforms supported by people across a political spectrum — members of an independent panel, a Democratic governor and now a Republican would-be governor — are more likely to be implemented than reforms supported by a tiny fringe.

Critics are free to fault Dudley for joining a growing consensus rather than demonstrating breathtaking originality. But aren’t leaders supposed to recognize other people’s good ideas?

But eventually he’ll have to acknowledge not only that their compensation threatens the sustainability of state government, but also that he’s willing to impose fiscal discipline whether they like it or not. And if he doesn’t like the ideas that the Reset Cabinet, Gov. Kulongoski and Chris Dudley support, he must offer voters something better.

No love from the left, and vice versa

R

obert Gibbs should be yanked as White House press secretary.

Not because of his outburst against the “professional left.” He was right about that. In a recent interview with The Hill, Gibbs once more proved Michael Kinsley’s maxim that a gaffe is just truth slipping out.

He said the president’s lefty critics “ought to be drug-tested,” would only “be satisfied when we have Canadian health care and we’ve eliminated the Pentagon,” and “wouldn’t be satisfied if Dennis Kucinich was president.”

His colleagues tried to excuse Gibbs by saying he was suffering from a bug going around the White House. But the press secretary and the president are understandably frustrated over the asymmetry at the heart of American politics: Rand Paul and Sharron Angle aside, Republicans often find a way to exploit their extremes for political advantage, while Democratic extremes typically do damage to a Democratic president.

One of the most disgusting things about Mitch McConnell and Jon Kyl, and now the former maverick John McCain, is that they are happy to be coopted by the radicals in their party to form one movement against President Barack Obama.

On the Republican side, the crazies often end up helping the Republican leadership. On the Democratic side, the radicals are constantly sniping at Obama, expressing their feelings of betrayal.

Fox built up a Republican president; MSNBC is trying to make its reputation by tearing down a Democratic one.

We’ve known that the left was mad at Obama, but now we know Obama is mad at the left. Obama and Gibbs are upset that the lefties won’t recognize the necessity of compromise. The left is snapping back: What necessity? You won 365 electoral votes. You have both

MAUREEN DOWD houses of Congress. And bipartisanship is an illusion.

Democrats are not prepared to go the whole way to appease their ideologues.

The Republican leaders on the Hill, on the other hand, seem perfectly happy to go all out.

W.’s reign of error so enraged Democrats that they that were bound by one desire: to get rid of him. Bush, Cheney and Rove inspired the Democrats to spawn a powerful lefty tower of babble led by Rachel Maddow, Michael Moore and the blogosphere.

After Bush, Democrats thought the way to paper over the distinction between liberals and radical lefties was to call everyone progressives. But calling yourself a progressive is just a stupid disguise where you pretend the contradiction isn’t there.

Some liberals, like the president, felt he could live without the public option, whereas lefties thought the public option was essential. Some liberals, like the president, think you can escalate our wars to end them, whereas lefties just want the wars ended.

There are deep schisms within the Democratic Party that were masked for a time, first by Bush and then by Obama’s election. Now that the Democrats have the presidency and the power and can enact legislation, it’s apparent that the word progressive is kind of meaningless.

Obama is testing how elastic he can be, how much realism he can have before he betrays his idealism. For better and worse, he is an elitist and a situ-

ationist. But the professional left — like the professional right — often considers pragmatism a moral compromise.

The lefties came to the defense of the centrist Clinton during impeachment.

Now that Obama is under attack, however, they are not coming to his defense, even though he has given more to the liberal cause than the scandal-stunted Clinton ultimately achieved.

He has shepherded the biggest expansion of social programs since the Great Society and spearheaded the biggest spending program with the stimulus. But for the left (and for some economists), it was not as big as it ought to have been.

Obama got elected because of the clarity of his campaign and his speeches. But, surprisingly, he’s in some ways an incoherent president. He’s with the banks; he’s against the banks. He’s leaving Afghanistan; he’s staying in Afghanistan. He strains at being a populist, but his head is in the clouds.

He needs to communicate more clearly. And, in that department, Gibbs isn’t helpful. He’s often unresponsive and sometimes hostile to the press. His adversarial barking has only heightened tensions with a press that was once lampooned for fawning over his boss.

Gibbs does not see his job as a bridge between the press and the presidency.

He sees himself more as a moat. He has always wanted to be an inside counselor to the president. So Obama — who bonded with Gibbs during the campaign, over sports, missing their families and how irritating the blog-around-theclock press corps is — would be wise to promote him to a counselor. Let someone who shows less disdain for the press work with the press, and be the more engaging face of the White House.

Bad management, science behind Forest Service dog rule

By Mark Hinkle Bulletin guest columnist

A

n Aug. 3 In My View column, “Deschutes forest officials have adopted anti-dog ‘bluff,’” noted the lack of a legal foundation for the Deschutes National Forest restrictions on dog owner access. That raises serious questions regarding forest decisionmaking. However, it’s not just an issue of following the law; it’s also an issue of following good management principles.

I believe it’s possible for land managers to provide quality opportunities for all recreationists. Forestry, recreation and wilderness management textbooks caution against access restrictions. One notes that “management’s role is to manage recreation use skillfully, not to inhibit it.” Another advises: “For any given problem, there are likely several potential solutions. Explicit consideration should be given to this variety of approaches rather than relying on those that are simply fa-

miliar or administratively expedient.”

Broadly applied access limits are administratively expedient (easy), but they do not reflect skillful management.

There are good reasons for this conservative approach. These are public lands that, wherever possible, should remain open for the public to access.

Moreover, public land recreation provides important benefits — to individuals, society, the agencies and the lands.

The declining use of public lands has led to calls from the president on down to facilitate, not inhibit, participation in outdoor recreation.

Put simply, access limits should be used only as a last resort and only as widely as absolutely necessary. The Forest Service has as a guiding principle: “We use the best scientific knowledge in making decisions.” In fact, the Deschutes National Forest appears to understand the science.

One of the standards and guidelines in its management plan is: “When conflicts

IN MY VIEW arise all avenues of resolution will be explored. The intent is to use the minimum regulation necessary to resolve conflicts.”

The problem is the Deschutes National Forest hasn’t followed good science or its own management plan in decisions about dog owner access.

As part of DogPAC’s public records request, it obtained all “documents of complaints received by the Bend Fort Rock Ranger District associated with any and all recreation activities from 1970 to present.” There were 188 complaints. Seven complaints concerned dogs being off-leash where they should be on-leash (i.e., they occurred after the restrictions were in place and thus were not a rationale for implementing them).

Ten complaints reflected dog owner concerns about lack of access. There were no public complaints reflecting

dogs biting humans or otherwise endangering other recreationists. Not all encounters lead to written complaints.

However, even allowing five unreported complaints for each one reported, that only reflects one complaint per year.

The forest’s chief law enforcement officer “firmly discouraged the district from even implementing the dog leash restriction,” so at least one forest staffer recognized that the restrictions were not warranted.

If leash restrictions are warranted in some areas, they are not necessarily warranted in others. The wilderness ranger who catalyzed the wilderness restrictions stated in an internal memo that “dog problems” don’t exist on the Broken Top and Todd Lake trails.

Despite these calls for a conservative and scientifically sound approach to managing dog owner access, the forest decided to impose leash restrictions on essentially all of the Deschutes River Trail and

on all the wilderness alpine areas accessible via Century Drive — including Broken Top and Todd Lake trails that their own ranger (an avid supporter of restrictions) said were not problem areas.

DogPAC believes the Deschutes National Forest should follow basic management principles — apply access restrictions only where they are truly necessary. It is possible to provide leashrestricted opportunities for dog-averse recreationists on selected trails without denying off-leash recreationists access to entire areas.

If you believe this forest should follow good science and their own management plan when making access decisions, please take action. Go to www.forestaccess.org to e-mail Forest Service Chief Tom Tidwell, call the Forest Service regional office in Portland, or otherwise support this effort.

Escape Continued from C1 Bend police officers arrived at the courthouse shortly after the incident and conducted an investigation.

Goodpasture was taken back to the Deschutes County jail, where he has been held since May. He was initially arrested May 22 after a three-hour standoff that drew a major law enforcement response, including officers from the regional SWAT team.

Police said Goodpasture forced his way into his wife’s apartment on Northwest Fourth Street and then held her, their 9month-old son, and two other young women at knifepoint and refused to let them leave.

Goodpasture’s wife, 19-year-old Kirsten Snow White, and her friend, 19-year-old Felicia Pozuelos, were able to escape.

Police say Goodpasture took his son and a 17-year-old girl into a bathroom, but the girl was later able to escape. Police eventually forced their way into the bathroom, took the baby and arrested Goodpasture.

He now faces additional charges of attempted escape, assaulting a public safety officer and fourth-degree assault.

Sentencing on the charges Goodpasture pleaded guilty to this week is scheduled for Sept. 27.

Lines Continued from C1 Two property owners, Dave Bancroft and Ken Mulenex, have been leading the effort to fix the lot line problems for the 41 properties with the most drastic discrepancies. Since Bancroft and Mulenex’s last meeting with Deschutes County in November, the county agreed to pay for an aerial survey to help the property owners and waived a $5,000 land use fee it would normally charge for the process to change some of the rules for adjusting lot lines.

At this point, the county has done what it promised to do, said County Administrator Dave Kanner on Wednesday.

Now the 17 property owners

Sports Continued from C1 “And with the economy the way it is,” Smith continued, “people are giving until it hurts and then just a little bit more.

And my gosh, you can’t do anything but be grateful you live in such a great place.”

Booster club teams with Kiwanis Club Teresa Tooley has been part of the Crook County Booster Club for about five years. The booster club’s responsibilities used to be to raise money that could help with the cost of new uniforms and other incidentals. Now, the club has a larger mission. It’s working with the local Kiwanis Club to create a fund that would help students with participation fees. It costs students $150 to play each sport. Before, the fee was on a sliding scale, but now there are no exceptions. Tooley

Richard ‘Scar’ Lopez, founder of Cannibal & the Headhunters, dies McClatchy-Tribune News Service LOS ANGELES — Richard “Scar” Lopez, a founding member of Cannibal & the Headhunters, the East Los Angeles vocal group that scored a hit in the mid-1960s with “Land of 1000 Dances,” has died. He was 65.

Lopez died of lung cancer July 30 in a convalescent hospital in Garden Grove, said Gene Aguilera, who managed the group a decade ago during its local comeback.

They were four high school students in East L.A. — Frankie “Cannibal” Garcia, Lopez, Robert “Rabbit” Jaramillo and his brother, Joe “Yo Yo” Jaramillo — when they emerged on the national music scene in 1965.

14 weeks on Top 100 The Cannibal & the Headhunters version of “Land of 1000 Dances” — with Cannibal’s signature “Naa na na na naa” phrase — spent 14 weeks on Billboard’s Top 100.

“I remember we were cruising Whittier Boulevard in Bobby’s ’49 Chevy and (disc jockey) Huggy Boy plays our song,” Lopez recalled in a 2005 interview with LA Weekly. “And we were going crazy, going ballistic on Whittier telling everyone to put their radio on.”

Hector Gonzalez, the current owner of Rampart Records, whose late founder, Eddie Davis, discovered and recorded the group, said, “They were basically a one-hit wonder, but that record left an indelible mark in the history of American rock ‘n’ roll.

“They gave pride and dignity to the Mexican American community because of their contribution to not only rock ’n’ roll but the success they achieved.”

In 1965, Cannibal & the Headhunters appeared on “American Bandstand,” “Hullabaloo,” “Shebang” and other TV shows, and they opened for the Rolling Stones, the Righteous Brothers and other acts, including the Beatles during their U.S. tour that year.

After the Headhunters opened

for the Beatles at Shea Stadium in New York, Mick Jagger and Keith Richards “came backstage to tell us how good we were,” Lopez told LA Weekly.

Lopez, however, did not participate in the Beatles’ concerts in California. Davis, who served as Cannibal & the Headhunters’ producer and manager, had told the group he didn’t want any of them gambling with the Beatles and others in the back of the plane.

But while Davis was napping as they headed to Los Angeles, Lopez told LA Weekly, “I was determined to get in that game.”

When Davis woke up, Lopez recalled, “he stormed back there and started yelling at me in front of everyone. I’m from East L.A., and I don’t take that from nobody. So we never spoke to each other ever again. I was so angry at him for embarrassing me in front of the Beatles that I made up my mind right then and there that I would not continue on the tour.”

Gonzalez, who interviewed Lopez for an upcoming documentary on the history of Rampart Records, said Lopez “never came back” to the group after the incident with Davis, despite reports that he left over a money dispute.

Band after Lopez Cannibal & the Headhunters continued as a trio after Lopez left and broke up in 1967.

Lopez, who Gonzalez said later overcame a drug problem, held a number of jobs after leaving the group, including landscaping parks in the city of Los Angeles.

In 1996, the year Garcia died, Lopez and the Jaramillo brothers reunited for a performance at the Chicano Music Awards in Pasadena, where they were inducted into the Chicano Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Gonzalez said the group continued to perform occasionally in Southern California until 2004, with replacements for Garcia and Joe Jaramillo, who died in 2000.

who have not already done so need to prove they have legal lots of record by locating the earliest deed or contract for the property, county staff said.

Then the group will have to hire a surveyor to survey their lots and write new deed descriptions to match the historical lot lines that people have observed, according to a county document.

The aerial survey might reduce the work for the surveyor, said County Surveyor Mike Berry.

The ultimate goal is to record new deeds for the properties to reflect the lots on which people have lived for years.

But as Bancroft and Mulenex left the county building Wednesday, both said they still do not know what type of survey they need in order to create new deeds, so they are still sev-

eral steps away from getting an idea of the cost for each property owner. They plan to meet again soon to discuss this.

“I don’t think any of us here should not understand that we are going to have to cough up some money to get this thing squared away, and if we don’t, this is going to roll (to) our kids and our kids’ kids if we don’t take some individual responsibility for these lots,” Mulenex said.

“The biggie is money. We have so many seniors living in here that are living off their retirement and Social Security,” Mulenex added, which elicited applause from the property owners.

said the fund would help those students who can’t afford the $150, but they will have to work for the money.

they need to raise and the community is aware why they need the money. But continuing to ask the same businesses and individuals also makes it more taxing.

In 2008, when the school district was still funding sports, the football team’s budget was about $40,000. Boys and girls soccer had a budget of about $16,000 each. Volleyball needed about $17,000 to cover costs and crosscountry’s budget was about $11,000. Athletic Director Scott Polen said coaches salaries ranged from $2,500 to $6,000.

Tyler Tooley, Teresa’s son, is going to be a senior next year.

He is on both the track and football teams.

“At some point, it gets old — fundraising — but when the season comes, you worked so hard for it you appreciate it more,” he said.

Students work off $150 fee to play “Even if someone has rocks in their field they want cleaned up, we’re working out a program that … if they work 15 hours, the booster club will pay for their participation fee to the school district,” she said.

The long-term goal, Tooley said, would be building up the fund so it doesn’t only help play athletic fees but helps with all extracurricular activities.

“I’m a firm believer that any kid who walks through a high school feels like they should have a place,” she said. “Every student needs to feel they belong.”

Crook County Track Coach Ernie Brooks said the fundraising is getting easier.

Loss of store’s vintage cooler kills town’s chill Owner mulls fate of 1930s-era walk-in fridge in Blodgett

By Raju Wood ward The (Corvallis) Gazette-Times

BLODGETT — A whiteboard hangs on the door of a walk-in cooler inside the Blodgett Country Store. It reads: “Cooler is down. Compressor went out and is too old to fix.”

Despite the warning, regular visitors to the store off Highway 20 are mourning the loss of the beloved cooler that dates back to the early 1930s. Once a place where hunters brought their game and where heat-weary locals would sometimes ask to stand in the days before air conditioning, the cooler is a kind of Blodgett institution.

In the past 12 years, the wooden, 12-by-16-foot walk-in has served as one of Benton County’s largest beer coolers. It holds more than 100 packages of beer, from six-packs of Budweiser to 22-ounce bottles of California microbrews.

But when the compressor stopped working on sweltering July 8, owner Mark Scacco was forced to move the store’s beer selection into two three-door standing coolers — while he deliberated the fate of the old cooler.

A town fixture Fred Kiger, 63, has lived in Blodgett his entire life and remembers when the cooler extended the entire width of the store and was used primarily to store meat. He calls the cooler a town fixture and said he still looks inside it from time to time in search of beer.

“I do a double-take and say, Where’s the beer?’” Kiger said Tuesday afternoon. “I’ve been used to it for so long. I’m having a hard time getting used to something new.”

Visitors often lingered in the cooler as long as they could, even if they weren’t intending to purchase beer.

“I’ve been coming to this store since I was 6,” said Jim Kasner, 59, of Burnt Woods. “I remember cooling off in there during hot days. It felt great.” Scacco, who has owned the store for nine years, said the cooler’s popularity has prompted employees to joke about charging people who hang out in the cooler for more than several minutes. Speculation about its fate is the talk of the town.

Community feedback “This is the biggest thing that’s happened here since the grange burned down,” Scacco said. “I have been getting a lot of comments and feedback about what I should do.” He plans to seek community suggestions about his options at this weekend’s Summit Festival. His options, which were listed on the whiteboard in the store, are: • Buy a new compressor that’s the same size as the previous one and repair the cooler floor. Total cost: $4,500.

• Buy a new compressor that’s larger than the old one and repair the floor, at a cost of $5,000.

• Take out the cooler and replace it with a nine-door standing cooler that he salvaged from a store that burned down in Lebanon years ago. Cost: $6,000.

Scacco said that taking out the cooler and replacing it with the nine-door cooler he’s using now makes the most sense because employees could stock the shelves more easily. But he’s also committed to making sure the store maintains its original look and feel.

The last thing he wants is for his store to resemble a large chain.

“This cooler has so much sentimental value,” Scacco said. “I have people come in here with their kids who used to spend time in the coolers.”

MLB Boston’s Ellsbury could be done for season with injury Boston Red Sox outfielder Jacoby Ellsbury has been diagnosed a broken rib and may be done for the year after being placed on the disabled list for the third time this season.

“It’s a broken rib in the back,” Ellsbury said of his exam by Jacoby Dr. Lewis Ellsbury: Yocum in Has another California broken rib on Monday.

“When I come back I’ll be stronger than ever.”

Boston manager Terry Francona said “I don’t know if it’s realistic” if he’ll return and the timetable was four to six weeks for it to heal.

Ellsbury, a Madras High and Oregon State product, collided with Texas pitcher Tommy Hunter at first base after he led off Friday night’s game with a roller down the line. Ellsbury underwent MRI and CT scans on Saturday in Boston, and was originally diagnosed with bruising on the left side of his rib cage.

He was in only his ninth game back from the disabled list after missing 58 games because of broken ribs on his left side. He had missed 37 games during an earlier DL stint for a similar injury.

The Red Sox also said another outfielder, Mike Cameron, will have season-ending surgery to repair a torn abdominal muscle.

The Red Sox signed the outfielder to a $15.5-million, two-year contract during the offseason, with plans of upgrading their defense with him. Ellsbury was moved to left field prior to the start of the season.

SUNRIVER — It did not take Tom Watson long to come up with a favorite to win the 2010 Jeld-Wen Tradition.

“Without a question,” Watson said Wednesday on the Crosswater Club driving range, where he was preparing for The Tradition’s first round. “Bernhard (Langer) is playing wonderful golf right now. He’s always been tough to beat, and not just out here on the Champions Tour.”

Not that Watson does not think he can beat Langer, who has won the last two major championships on the Champions Tour.

In fact, if anything, Langer’s recent run of success gives other players on pro golf’s 50-and-older tour someone to shoot for.

“He’s playing the best out of anybody right now,” said 1988 PGA Championship winner Jeff Sluman while practicing his putting on a mild day at Crosswater. “But golf has its ebbs and flows. He (Langer) has certainly has played great golf, not only this year but his whole career.

“That’s what it’s about, is see somebody lapping the field, and you work hard and go out and try to beat him.”

About The Tradition

SUNRIVER — Mike Stevens is not saying yet where The Tradition is moving once the tournament leaves Central Oregon.

Stevens, president of the Champions Tour, was in attendance Wednesday at Crosswater Club, where The Tradition will be held for the fourth consecutive year. And he talked as if the tournament’s move from Central Oregon is indeed imminent.

Jeld-Wen Inc., the Klamath Falls-based door and window company, announced last week that it would no longer be the title sponsor of The Tradition beyond 2010. Stevens was not saying much about The Tradition’s future, but he did talk about the tournament’s run in Central Oregon.

When the tournament moved from the Portland area, where it had been staged since 2003, to Sunriver, Central Oregon was an untested market for professional golf.

So, does Stevens believe that this area proved itself viable?

“In the context of what it does for the sponsor and what it does for the community, I think in both cases, yes, it’s extremely viable,” Stevens said.

Katie Hoff won three medals at the 2008 Olympics, but has struggled at times since Beijing. This week she’ll swim in the Pan Pacific Swimming Championships in Irvine, Calif.

The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — A half dozen years back, the two girls were teen sensations, pool prodigies.

Katie Hoff and Kate Ziegler signed professional contracts before they earned diplomas at their suburban high schools. They established themselves as the best in the world at their craft before they could drive their family cars. They won five world titles between them in 2007.

But in the aftermath of an exhausting runup to a shockingly disappointing 2008 Summer Games for both, Hoff and Ziegler succumbed to burnout and disappeared from the international scene.

NFL

Favre makes his return to Vikings official

By Pat Borzi New York Times News Service

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. — Near the end of a rambling news conference to discuss his return to the Minnesota Vikings, Brett Favre said something Wednesday that was easy to scoff at: This season will be his last in the NFL. “Twenty years, and I’m done,” he said.

The announcement might have seemed, well, disingenuous coming from Favre, who had retired and unretired twice already, in 2008 and 2009, and appeared undecided this year until three teammates flew to Hattiesburg, Miss., on the owner Zygi Wilf’s jet this week to fetch him.

Even Favre, when asked if anyone should believe him, conceded: “Probably not. I do believe it now.

I’ve got to fall apart some time.”

But when?

Exactly one year after his surprise arrival in Vikings camp, Favre slipped on his familiar red No. 4 practice jersey and jumped in with the first team during midday drills at the team’s Winter Park complex.

Moving with a slight limp on a surgically repaired left ankle, Favre zipped short- and medium-range passes with the kind of eye-popping velocity that turned heads on his first day last year. One ball appeared to knock the wind out of wideout Bernard Berrian.

“He looks comfortable, much more comfortable than last year, when he really didn’t know all the names and the faces and how we operated,” Coach Brad Childress said. “Now we have to play.” Although Favre asked to play in Sunday night’s preseason game at San Francisco, Childress would not commit to it Wednesday.

According to The Minneapolis Star Tribune, the Vikings bumped up Favre’s guaranteed salary this season to $16.5 million from $13 million, with incentives that could push the deal to $20 million.

It is the final year of his two-year contract.

Although Favre told reporters after the Vi-

Favre said his left ankle did not respond to surgery in May as well as his right shoulder did last year. He said X-rays taken last Thursday during an examination by Dr. James Andrews showed a new bone spur, and his range of motion is only slightly better than before the surgery.

And Favre acknowledged that he was unlikely to play as spectacularly as last year, when he threw 33 touchdown passes and only 7 interceptions as a 40-year-old while taking the Vikings within one victory of the Super Bowl.

So why come back at all? Favre said he felt he owed his teammates one more run at a championship.

“Those guys were like, ‘If you can do us one favor,’ ” Favre said. “That’s a pretty big favor.”

Last year, Favre reconsidered retirement when

Childress called him after the first preseason game. This time, Childress figured it would take something more dramatic to roust Favre out of Hattiesburg.

“When the terrain varies, you go with the terrain,” Childress said.

So after talking with Favre’s agent, Bus Cook, Childress asked three of Favre’s closest friends on the team — kicker Ryan Longwell, offensive guard Steve Hutchinson and defensive end Jared Allen, who were described by Childress as “good cop, bad cop, funny cop” — to fly down after practice on Monday and talk him into it. Longwell said Favre’s wife, Deanna, knew there were coming, but Favre did not.The three players were told to stay until they got an answer. At first, Longwell said, they tried to pressure Favre into leaving immediately. That did not work, so they stayed up late with Favre’s family, telling stories. The next morning, they met Favre by themselves.

“We spent the last few hours talking, just the four of us,” Longwell, a Bend High graduate, said.

“We kind of had a heart to heart and felt like the plane needed to leave with him on it.”

As they all sat in Favre’s Jeep, Favre made a reasoned, thoughtful case for quitting. How could he play as well as last year? What if he let everybody down? At one point, Longwell said he was convinced they would be flying back without him.

“Finally, in that last half an hour, we all spilled our guts about, it’s not about the touchdown passes and the wins and losses and stuff: ‘Could you do it just for the guys?’” Longwell said. “’It elevates the whole locker room, the whole community, the whole state, you just being there. Would you do it for the guys?’

“He had said over the night and the day, the one thing he missed was the guys. It was quiet in there for about 30, 45 seconds, and he said, ‘All right, let’s go do this.’ We told Deanna, ‘Pack your bags; we’re going.’”

• Nadal, Djokovic win openers: Four games, 16 minutes, only nine points lost. Rafael Nadal couldn’t have gotten off to a much better start. The top-ranked player defeated American Taylor Dent 6-2, 7-5 on Wednesday in his opening match at the Cincinnati Masters. He took control by dominating the first four games, setting up his 35th victory in his last 37 matches. Second-ranked Roger Federer, third-ranked Novak Djokovic, fourth-ranked Andy Murray and No. 13 Andy Roddick — the top-seeded American — also advanced.

• Clijsters rallies for win: Kim Clijsters rallied for a 4-6, 6-4, 6-3 victory over American Bethanie Mattek-Sands at the Rogers Cup on Wednesday in Montreal. After dropping the first set, the fifth-seeded Clijsters was down 4-1 in the second and had to fight off two break points against the aggressive MattekSands, a qualifier ranked 101st in the world. Clijsters advanced to a third-round meeting with Kaia Kanepi of Estonia, a 7-5, 6-2 winner over Sybille Bammer of Austria. Second-seeded Caroline Wozniacki edged Patty Schnyder 7-5, 7-5.

• Elbow injury sidelines Henin for rest of season: Justine Henin will miss the rest of the 2010 season as she recovers from an elbow injury. The 28-yearold former No. 1 sustained the injury at Wimbledon in July and said on her website she would not be able to practice again until October. Henin, a seventime Grand Slam winner, returned to tennis at the beginning of this season after 18 months in retirement. She reached the final in her first two tournaments, including the Australian Open, and won two titles this season.

Baseball • Braves acquire Lee from Cubs: The Atlanta Braves bulked up for the playoff race Wednesday, acquiring first baseman Derrek Lee from the Chicago Cubs. The Braves sent three minor league pitchers to the Cubs, none of them considered top-level prospects. Atlanta already had Troy Glaus at first base but, in an unexpected move, the team announced he’ll go on the 15-day disabled list. General manager Frank Wren wants Glaus to rest his legs for a week, then head to Triple-A Gwinnett to get in some work at his former position, third base.

Presumably, the Braves envision a lineup late in the season — and the playoffs — that could include both Lee and Glaus. The Braves, leading the NL East by 2½ games, are looking for any offensive help they can get after losing third baseman Chipper Jones to a season-ending knee injury.

• MLBPA challenges Mets’ actions in K-Rod case: The players’ union filed a grievance against the New York Mets and the commissioner’s office on Wednesday, protesting how the team has handled Francisco Rodriguez since he was injured in a fight at Citi Field. The Major League Baseball Players Association is challenging the Mets’ decision to place the record-setting closer on the disqualified list and their effort to convert his contract to a non-guaranteed deal. Rodriguez was placed on the disqualified list Tuesday, six days after he tore a ligament in the thumb of his pitching hand while punching his girlfriend’s father outside a family lounge at New York’s second-year ballpark. The right-hander had surgery Tuesday and is expected to miss the rest of the season.

Football • Fresno State, Nevada heading to Mountain West: Fresno State and Nevada are leaving the Western Athletic Conference for the Mountain West. The schools ended a wild Wednesday by announcing they are accepting invitations to join the Mountain West, which has added three prominent members of WAC in the last two months. Boise State is already bound for the MWC next year and now the Bulldogs and Wolf Pack are following as well, leaving the WAC’s future in question and the Mountain West preparing for life after Utah and possibly BYU. The MWC announcement of the invitations came just minutes after league member BYU acknowledged reports that the Cougars could be going independent in football and joining the WAC in all other sports.

• Seahawks trade DE Jackson to Lions for pick: The Seattle Seahawks traded defensive end and former first-round pick Lawrence Jackson to the Detroit Lions on Wednesday for an undisclosed draft choice in 2011. A day after Jackson admitted he was in limbo in Seattle, the Seahawks announced they had traded away their 28th overall selection in 2008.

Golf • Caddie sees no split with Tiger: Steve Williams doesn’t believe his job as Tiger Woods’ caddie is under any threat, despite media speculation about their 11-year association and concern over the champion golfer’s form. Williams told New Zealand radio Wednesday that he and Woods remain close friends and there is no possibility their working relationship is about to end. “I’m sure if there was going to be some sort of parting of the ways, I’d be the first to know,” he said. “From my point of view, I don’t see any chance of that happening.” Williams said Woods had no plans to change his key personnel, though he has struggled to regain form after taking a break from the PGA Tour amid revelations of marital infidelities.

Swimming • Phelps extends dominance in 200 fly at Pan Pacs: Michael Phelps led all the way in winning the 200-meter butterfly at the Pan Pacific championships on Wednesday night in Irvine, Calif. to extend his eight-year dominance in the event. The American touched in 1 minute, 54.11 seconds, fastest in the world this year. American Ryan Lochte cruised to victory in the 200 freestyle with the fastest time in the world this year (1:45.30). Olympic champion Aaron Peirsol of the U.S. won the 100 backstroke in 53.31, bettering his own meet record of 53.32 set four years ago. Cesar Cielo of Brazil won the 50 butterfly in a meet-record 23.03 seconds. Emily Seebohm of Australia, 18, rallied from third to win the 100 backstroke in 59.45. World champion Marieke Guehrer of Australia won the women’s 50 fly in 25.99. The U.S. went 1-2 in the women’s 200 freestyle. Olympian Allison Schmitt won in 1 minute, 56.10 seconds — second-fastest in the world this year — and lowering the meet record that Morgan Scroggy had set in the morning heats. Scroggy finished in 1:57.13. Kate Ziegler, world champion in 2005 and ’07 who had fallen off in recent years, won the 800 free in 8:21.59.

Twins 7, White Sox 6 MINNEAPOLIS — Joe Mauer had four hits, two RBIs and his first regular season home run at Target Field, leading Minnesota past Chicago to increase their season-high lead in the AL Central to five games.

The Twins trailed 5-3 entering the bottom of the fifth inning against Gavin Floyd (8-10). Mauer’s oppositefield solo shot cut into the lead before a three-run sixth

sealed it. Matt Capps gave up a run the ninth and got his fifth save, one night after blowing his second save chance since coming to the Twins in a trade last month.

Yankees 9, Tigers 5 NEW YORK — Mark Teixeira homered and Dustin Moseley pitched well enough to overcome the two home runs he gave up to Miguel Cabrera in New Yor’s testy win over Detroit.

With the Yankees leading 94, reliever Chad Gaudin hit Cabrera in the back to start the eighth. Tigers manager Jim Leyland came out to argue when Gaudin wasn’t ejected or warned. After the half-inning, Leyland came out again and was immediately ejected.

THAT’S A BIG CLUB

Move Continued from D1 “It made sense for JeldWen (to move the tournament to Sunriver) because they were looking for a resort locale where they can bring in their clients and guests and entertain them a lot more as opposed to a city hotel or a downtown location.”

But there were some challenges in hosting a golf tournament of The Tradition’s stature, he said.

“When you do the market research in this locale, you find that golf isn’t ranked as high (compared with) outdoor recreational activities as you might want,” Stevens observed. “There is a lot of great golf courses around here and a lot of golf support. But when you come into a market like this that isn’t golf-centric, so to speak, you have to put a little more behind marketing and promotion.”

And, of course, the economic recession did nothing to help The Tradition. Stevens showed a keen awareness of the economic problems faced this region.

He mentioned Deschutes County’s especially high unemployment and the region’s reliance on tourism. And in a recession, he added, attracting golf fans to Central Oregon has not always been easy.

“It’s just tough,” Stevens said. “When a market is this small, and you get hit with that type of impact, it makes your job of promoting tournaments that much more difficult.”

Stevens said Oregon is still appealing to the Champions Tour, and that he is working with Oregon pro Peter Jacobsen — who owns golf-management company Peter Jacobsen Sports — to perhaps attract a new event to the Portland area in the relatively near future.

While Stevens never mentioned a return of professional golf to Central Oregon, he did say he believes that had the economy been better, Central Oregon would have eventually grown into a stable golf market.

“I think each year has gotten better,” Stevens said. “I think if we would have had more time here, I think we would be fine. And we are fine. It’s been very successful.”

Stevens said that a deal with a new title sponsor for The Tradition is in the works and that he expects to announce details of the deal soon — perhaps as early as Monday.

PGA TOUR

Ryder Cup, playoffs on the line at Wyndham

By Joedy McCreary The Associated Press

Pete Erickson / The Bulletin

Bend Boys and Girls Club member Jaiden Griffin, 7, prepares to catch the director of the Terrebonne Boys and Girls Club Leo Gonzalez as he dives out of the way of the extra long driver wielded by Peter Jöhncke, who calls himself the “Trick Shot Master,” during a performance at Crosswater Club in Sunriver on Wednesday in events leading up to The Tradition. Jöhncke, originally from Sweden, has performed all over the world, according to his website.

TRADITION NOTEBOOK

Thunderstorms change conditions at Crosswater

By Zack Hall The Bulletin

SUNRIVER — Jim Ramey had Crosswater Club just about where he wanted it Tuesday before the start of the Jeld-Wen Tradition.

Then came thunderstorms in the afternoon and evening that dumped rain and hail on the Sunriver golf course.

The hail actually dented some of the greens, said Ramey, Sunriver Resort’s director of golf course maintenance. But the Crosswater grounds crew worked early Wednesday morning to smooth the greens with riding rollers, which compact the greens and make the putting surfaces uniform throughout the course.

And Ramey said that work was successful.

But the rain could have a noticeable, if minimal, effect on the way the course plays, at least early in The Tradition.

“It was getting pretty firm and fast yes-

terday,” Ramey said Wednesday, adding that those are the optimal conditions for the tournament. “The rain softened things up a little bit. But it still looks good out there.”

Ramey said that dry conditions forecast for the rest of the week should bring the course back to ideal condition.

on the regular (PGA) tour and they come over here (to the 50-and-older Champions Tour) and morph right in. There is a phenomenon that is happening right now in the last five years out here. The tour has really, really exploded in terms of the quality of players.”

Deep tour Is there really a larger group of top-quality golfers on the Champions Tour now than in the past. Or does it just seem that way?

Jeff Sluman, who joined the Champions Tour in 2007, said it is no illusion.

The 1988 PGA Championship winner said Wednesday that golfers today are in better shape later in their careers than they used to be. And that has helped some of the Champions Tour golfers to remain competitive, even on the PGA Tour.

“There is a huge amount of depth,” Sluman said. “Guys are in better and better shape. And we have guys that still play

John Jacobs withdraws John Jacobs, who has won five times since joining the Champions Tour in 1995, withdrew from The Tradition on Wednesday.

Jacobs’ departure, along with the late withdrawals of Paul Azinger and Tom Pernice Jr., forced the Champions Tour to reshuffle the pairings for today’s first round.

While most of the marquee groupings will remain the same, six golfers are now scheduled to play in pairs. The rest of the field is scheduled to play in threesomes.

Zack Hall can be reached at 541-617-7868 or zhall@bendbulletin.com.

Major Continued from D1 The Tradition begins with today’s first round. And the 65 other golfers in the field have their eyes on Langer, to be sure.

The Champions Tour has gotten deeper in recent years.

This year’s Tradition includes PGA Tour major champions such as Nick Price, Corey Pavin and Mark Calcavecchia, all playing Crosswater for the first time.

They will join Tradition regulars and major champions such as Watson — an eight-time major champion on the PGA Tour — Tom Kite, Tom Lehman, and of course Langer. Fred Funk and Mike Reid, winners of The Tradition in 2008 and 2009, respectively, are here as well.

“I wouldn’t say (I’m) just chasing Bernhard,” Lehman said. “Bernhard is playing very, very well. But to me, I feel there is quite a large group of players who are very capable.

“There are a group of guys who are really tough to beat, and you have got to beat them all.”

Golf is more than just beating the golfer on top of the leaderboard. The players back in the field must also tame Crosswater Club.

And if the last three years are any indication, golfers will have to go low this week to have a chance.

Mark McNulty won here in 2007 at 16 under par. Funk won at 19 under. And Reid in 2009 won a playoff over John Cook after firing 16 under par for the regulation 72 holes.

But the low scores at Crosswater can be misleading, Watson said. Part of playing Crosswater well is avoiding the wetlands and rivers that give Crosswater its name.

“There are enough holes out

Fred Funk, right, putts on No. 12 at Sunriver’s Crosswater Club on Wednesday during a practice round for The Tradition. Funk won the tournament in 2008. there that you can get some birdie opportunities,” Watson said. “But if you make a mistake out there, it can cost you double bogeys. You have to stay away from those.”

Lehman agreed.

“There is a nice blend of holes you can really attack and play aggressively, and some holes you have to be careful,” Lehman said. “But overall, I think it is the kind of golf course where you have to make good shots from start to finish and you have to make some putts.”

The weather this week at Crosswater should be a nice change for many of the golfers in The Tradition, who often must play in hot and humid conditions in the Midwest and on the East Coast during the summer.

The Champions Tour forecasts temperatures to top out in the low 80s today and Friday, and to get even cooler this weekend during the third and final rounds.

It is mild weather like that, the appeal of Crosswater, and the natural beauty of the area that has Lehman excited to be here.

“There is something very unique about this golf course, this area, and this tournament,” Lehman said. “This location for an event is probably about as good as it gets. I can’t speak for everyone, but I know for a fact that if every event we played all year long were in a place like this, I would be a happy, happy guy.”

Cooler temperatures could have an effect on the way the golfers play Crosswater.

“In the mornings when you tee off, you’ll be playing in the 50s (degrees),” Watson said.

“The ball is not going to go very far.

“You definitely have to take that into consideration with your distance. All golf is distance control, anyway. You can get the accuracy somewhat down, but hitting the ball the right distance is what makes a champion.”

So what kind of golfer does Crosswater favor?

Well, Watson has an idea.

“It favors Bernhard Langer,” Watson said. “He’s not making many mistakes. It favors somebody who doesn’t make mistakes.”

GREENSBORO, N.C. — Anthony Kim could use another push to strengthen his case for the U.S. Ryder Cup team. But Trevor Immelman’s need this week is even more pressing.

Without a strong showing at the Wyndham Championship, he might not make golf’s postseason.

The final event before the PGA Tour’s lucrative finishing kick starts Thursday and promises to once again be dominated by players trying to make it to other events — either the Ryder Cup or the FedEx Cup playoffs.

“It’s just time for me to get the ball in the hole the next month and prove to him that I’m playing well enough to make that team,” said Kim, part of the winning U.S. team two years ago at Valhalla. The “him” is captain Corey Pavin, who will announce his wild-card selections Sept. 7.

It’s been a rough past few months for the 25-year-old Kim, whose first PGA Tour victory came two years ago and a few hours down the road in Charlotte at the former Wachovia Championship.

Thumb surgery in May cost him three months, and he struggled in both tournaments he played since returning, finishing 16 over at the Bridgestone and missing the cut last week at the PGA. That dropped him off the list of qualifiers and placed his fate squarely in Pavin’s hands.

“I wouldn’t say added pressure — I really didn’t have anything to lose since I came back,” Kim said Wednesday. “I haven’t put the ball in the hole, and I knew that when I came back, I was going to be rusty. I wish I had practiced a little bit more before I played, but I just wasn’t able to do it. I didn’t put too much pressure on myself, but at the same time, I was hoping for the best. It didn’t turn out that way, and I just got bumped out.”

One thing Kim won’t have to worry about: making it to the playoffs. He arrived at Sedgefield Country Club at No. 13 on the points list, the highest-ranked player in the field. As always, there’s no shortage of players scrambling to lock up a spot at The Barclays.

“I think guys put this on the calendar as a last chance to get a lot of points before you go into the playoffs,” 2007 winner Brandt Snedeker said. “You’ve seen guys jump in the past. ... How it can change your year, your career and everything else that goes along with it. That all makes for a very important week.”

Among those looking for a last-minute points boost is Immelman. He’s at No. 154 — 113 points behind No. 125 Michael Letzig — and is chasing his first top-10 finish since 2008.

He’s made the cut in only eight of the 14 tournaments he’s played this year, and playing his fourth tournament since the British Open, needs quite a push just to make it to the next one, next week at Ridgewood Country Club in New Jersey.

“Obviously, I want to be there.

There’s no doubt about it,” Immelman said. “It’s something that every player on the PGA Tour is trying to make sure he’s a part of, plain and simple.

“But I’m in such an interesting phase of my career where the last couple years has sort of been a stop-start. ... (I’ve) really struggled to get any momentum,” he added.

“It’s been years since I’ve (played this many events). ... For me right now, everything is to make sure by the time Jan. 1 comes, I’m able to play a full schedule next year and play the way I know I can.”

He certainly isn’t alone. No. 164 Fred Couples needs to finish third to qualify for The Barclays, while any player ranked 153rd or better who finishes in the top five this week will rack up enough points to reach the first tournament of the playoffs.

On the other side of the bubble is Robert Garrigus, who is looking to keep himself in the postseason fold after arriving at No. 122 and describing the four-week playoff series as “pretty much like four majors.”

“Playing well this week is a big deal,” Garrigus said, “but also you can look at it, just go out and have fun.”

COLLEGE FOOTBALL

Is it Boise State’s year to crash BCS title game?

By Tim Booth The Associated Press

Here are six more teams facing crossroads of one sort or another in college football this season:

level of respectability and notoriety that the Broncos have fought to obtain and are now willing to accept.

Random fans may still show up at the football offices in Boise asking to see the Broncos’ blue field, but it’s just as likely they want to learn more about the program.

It’s still somewhat shocking for Petersen, who arrived in 2001 as offensive coordinator, to witness the amount of growth. Whether it’s an indoor practice facility that provides a chance to escape the elements, or talk of expanding the stadium to more than 40,000 seats, it’s all part of the rapid rise that still sets Petersen aback when he gives himself a moment to reflect.

“I don’t know if we expected all that. ... It all works together, it’s not any one entity on campus that is doing it all,” he said. “There are a lot of people involved in this whole deal.”

The reason most are so high on the 2010 team is the returning talent. Boise State finished last season ranked No. 4 and returns all but one starter — the lone departure being cornerback Kyle Wilson, taken in the first round of the NFL draft by the New York Jets.

Moore is the Broncos’ first legitimate Heisman candidate after throwing for more than 3,500 yards, 39 touchdowns and just three interceptions as a sophomore, though he’s far from a self-promoter. His targets on the outside — Austin Pettis and Titus Young — com-

bined for 142 catches and 24 touchdowns last season. Running back Jeremy Avery, often overlooked with all the Broncos’ other skilled players, rushed for a quiet 1,151 yards a year ago.

The defense might finally be on par with the attention-grabbing offense, too. Winterswyk and Billy Winn anchor a line with depth, while Jeron Johnson and Brandyn Thompson — who returned an interception for a touchdown against TCU — hold down the secondary.

Just how good the Broncos are will be tested immediately.

Petersen calls Virginia Tech “one of those teams,” and doesn’t hesitate to say the Hokies are the biggest challenge the Broncos have ever faced. After opening the season against them in Landover, Md., Boise State heads to Wyoming and its 7,165-foot-elevation homefield advantage. Finally, the Broncos come home Sept. 25 against Pac-10 title contender Oregon State.

By the time Boise State opens its final season of WAC play on Oct. 2 at New Mexico State, its chances at playing for the national title will be largely determined.

“We have such high hopes from everyone else around the nation and getting some respect,” Pettis said. “Now it’s proving them right because we were fighting to get that respect.”

be from here on for it to be cooler than last year.”

Those cooler temperatures in the Lower Deschutes are critical for steelhead runs. If the Deschutes is warmer than the Columbia, hatchery steelhead generally will not make the turn south into the Deschutes and toward Central Oregon.

French said steelhead fishing has been “quite good” this summer from the mouth of the Deschutes 35 miles south to Beavertail Campground, with the peak of the run set to arrive in mid-September.

“The fishing is really starting to crank up right now, but it’s been steady since July,” French said.

This year’s fish could be bigger, too. French said many of the steelhead appear to be two-salt fish — steelhead that have spent two years in the Pacific Ocean and weigh 6 to 12 pounds. The 2009 run was dominated by onesalt fish, which range from 4 to 6 pounds.

French added that 2010 could be another banner year in the Lower Deschutes for fall chinook salmon as well. The run prediction for fall chinook in the Columbia is 650,000 fish, compared with

perfect fit for coach Chip Kelly’s spread offense.

One too many off-the-field issues got Masoli booted from the Ducks. Kelly dismisses any talk of his team being out to prove it can rise above the adversity and remain the Pac-10’s best.

But the strength and depth of the Ducks will be tested.

STANFORD — It would be easy to expect a step back from the Cardinal after the departure of Toby Gerhart, the Heisman runner-up. It might also be misguided. Coach Jim Harbaugh seems to have a program on the rise, with a future firstround draft pick at quarterback in Andrew Luck and enough talent to make Stanford legitimate Pac-10 contenders. The Cardinal have to prove they’re here to stay.

TEXAS TECH — Mike Leach was the face of Texas Tech football. His pass-happy offense and offbeat personality made the Red Raiders relevant. Even his messy dismissal drew national headlines. Tommy Tuberville, a good but far less flashy coach, takes over and it’s impossible not to wonder if the program will go back to being an afterthought.

CINCINNATI — Brian Kelly led the Bearcats to consecutive Big East titles and BCS games, unprecedented success for a program that has rarely been much better than mediocre. Now that Kelly has gone to Notre Dame, can Butch Jones keep the Bearcats contending for conference titles?

Continued from D1 With the activation of a new fish transfer facility in April at the Round Butte Dam on Lake Billy Chinook, temperatures on portions of the Lower Deschutes River last month were up 2 to 5 degrees over the historical average.

The Round Butte project is part of an effort to return river conditions to what they were before the dam was built in 1964, including elevated water temperatures in spring and early summer and cooler temperatures in late summer and fall.

Those cooler temperatures are beginning to show, and Portland General Electric (PGE) earlier this month increased the amount of cooler water released from Lake Billy Chinook into the Lower Deschutes.

“In July there was some concern (about fish health),” French said. “But modifications have been made, and more cooler water is coming out of the bottom (of Lake Billy Chinook). The temperatures are now identical to what they were last year at this time, if not cooler. And the trend would

Boise State head coach Chris Petersen directs his team during practice in Boise, Idaho, earlier this month. The Broncos have hopes of getting to the Bowl Championship Series title game this year.

De

BOISE, Idaho — As he stood before his team ready to address goals and expectations in preparation for Boise State’s season, Chris Petersen grabbed the attention of his players and changed the message he recited for years.

“Let’s prove everyone right,” the Broncos’ successful fifth-year coach told his squad.

Say what?

This couldn’t be the message coming from Petersen, not after years of eschewing all the public debate about Boise State’s place in the college football pantheon. Not after years of claiming to ignore their worthiness as believed by pollsters, pundits and computers.

“People on the outside are giving us some credit and we don’t put a whole lot of stock into preseason rankings, but if people are going to say great things and are thinking about us differently, OK then. We’ll go ahead,” Petersen said. “We’ve always been kind of coming from nowhere in the past, so now we’re certainly not sneaking up on anybody. We’ll still have that chip on our shoulder, but it’ll be to prove everybody right.”

Welcome to the latest chapter in the evolution of the “outsiders” in college football.

Once considered the happy story of the occasional long-shot crashing the BCS’s big money party, the non-automatic qualifiers have recently taken up permanent residence, grabbing their share of the millions divvied out from the top-tier bowls.

First came Utah in 2004 and the numbers have only grown, reaching its pinnacle last year when Boise State and TCU marked the first time two non-automatic qualifiers played in the marquee bowl games. The pair faced each other in the Fiesta Bowl, won by Boise State 17-10.

And 2010 may become the watershed moment for those outside schools, clamoring for years to get equal entry into the big money.

Boise State begins the season ranked No. 5 in the coaches poll, and will likely receive another top-5 ranking when the AP Top 25 is released Aug. 21. TCU is ranked seventh by the coaches and could be a top-10 team in the AP poll. Both have schedule challenging — enough that, should each go undefeated, they are likely to find themselves with a high enough ranking to be playing in another BCS bowl game.

The shock value of seeing these teams in the BCS is gone, especially after last year.

But what about the ultimate prize: a shot at the national championship?

“It could happen,” said Boise State quarterback Kellen Moore, who many consider a Heisman Trophy candidate. “Every year there are different variables. Two years ago we were undefeated but there were a handful of undefeated teams. Sometimes you lose out on those things.

“For us, it’s 12 opportunities to play your best. You play well, in the end you’re going to be doing something good. You’re going to have an opportunity to be in a good bowl game and maybe eventually some things will fall down and things will open up for us.”

After years of trying to let their play on the field serve as the message coming from the potato state, the Broncos are embracing their place in the spotlight. When Petersen took over in 2006 following Dan Hawkins’ departure to Colorado, the Broncos were still regarded as second-class citizens with a lofty record due to meager competition in the Western Athletic Conference.

As the Broncos continued to win and, perhaps more importantly, continued beating established programs from BCS conferences, their worthiness to those outside the program grew exponentially.

“I hadn’t heard anything about Boise State before I came here and it seems like you’d have to be blind not to hear anything now,” Boise State defensive end Ryan Winterswyk said.

Their high regard entering this season is a

429,000 returning chinook last fall.

The fall chinook season began Aug. 1 on the Lower Deschutes, where fishing for chinook is allowed from the mouth upstream

to Sherars Falls.

Steelhead anglers can fish from the mouth all the way to Round Butte Dam. A project of PGE and the Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs,

Continued from D1 Now, with the Pan Pacific Swimming Championships in Irvine, Calif., both are back, having earned spots on the U.S. national team that will face squads from 21 countries including Australia, Japan and Canada.

Hoff’s and Ziegler’s comebacks have been marked by halting steps forward, slower times, and the pursuit of happiness. They have reordered priorities, changed coaches, moved and adjusted their goals dramatically.

And, though they’ve never been close friends, their quests for fulfillment have landed them at the same swimming center in Fullerton, Calif. Both have been training with the USA Swimming-sponsored FAST team run

by Coach Sean Hutchison and longtime University of Michigan Coach Jon Urbanchek.

Though each is still trying to figure out where she fits into the world of competitive swimming, both are pleased to be competing again at the sport’s highest levels — if not quite up to their old standards.

“I’m getting there,” Hoff, 21, said by phone last week from the U.S. team’s training camp in Irvine.

“Obviously I don’t feel like I’m 100 percent back to where I eventually want to be, but I feel like it’s been a big step for me not only in time, but also mentally.”

Ziegler, 22, said: “I’m happier than I’ve been in a very long time with swimming. I’m letting go of a lot of that pressure that I felt before the Olympics; I’m letting go of all of that anxiety.”

Both will swim in a number of events at the Pan Pacs. Hoff claimed her place on the team with a victory in the 400 freestyle, finishing first in 4 minutes 5.50 seconds, a time tied for fourthfastest in the world this year, but well off her 2008 personal best of 4:02.20, which remains the American record. She will also compete this week in the 100 and 200 freestyle and the 200 individual medley.

Ziegler got second in the 800 freestyle, securing her spot with that finish. Her time of 8:28.14 would have been good enough to win a U.S. title last year, but it fell nearly 10 seconds behind the personal best she achieved as a world champion in 2007. She is also entered in the 400 and 1,500 freestyles.

Even so, when Ziegler touched the wall in the 800, she thought “Oh, thank God,” she said.

As for Hoff’s victory in the 400?

“It was,” Hoff said, “pure relief.”

For both, making the Pan Pac team seemed to bring a welcome conclusion to what had been an agonizing Olympic and postOlympic experience. Dubbed “The Female Michael Phelps” entering the Beijing Games, Hoff won a silver and two bronze medals in her five events, but felt she had let her country down by missing out on a gold. Ziegler not only did not live up to frequent comparisons to swim legend Janet Evans, she also did not qualify for the finals of two events.

After the Games, Hoff left her longtime coach at the North Baltimore Aquatic Club to train with Phelps’s coach, Bob Bowman, whom she found demanding. At last summer’s U.S. championships, she finished sixth in the 400 freestyle and eighth in the 200 before withdrawing from the 100 and 800.

As Hoff’s mental and physical exhaustion grew, Ziegler enrolled at suburban George Mason University and struggled to find enthusiasm even to return to the

the $110 million fish and water intake at Round Butte Dam was designed to restore historical populations of chinook and steelhead that once migrated up the Middle Deschutes, Crooked and Metolius rivers before the dam was built.

(About 110,000 fish have passed through the fish intake since March, according to PGE.) Until the fish passage was activated, all water that passed downstream from the dam had been drawn from the bottom of Lake Billy Chinook, between 220 and 260 feet below the surface.

With the completion of the fish transfer facility — where migratory fish headed downstream are captured and trucked around the dam — a second water intake was added, drawing in water from the surface down to about 45 feet deep.

The two water intakes allow PGE to adjust the temperature of the water it sends downstream by blending warmer water from the shallows with cooler water from the bottom of the lake.

Earlier this month, the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality and the Warm Springs Tribal Water Control Board instructed PGE to increase the

water. She eventually decided on a reduced training program with her longtime coach, Ray Benecki of the FISH in McLean, Va. Her erratic training and slow times suggested she would struggle to make the 2009 world championship team; a bout with the flu kept her from even attempting to qualify.

So it was that the most acclaimed American female swimmers at the previous world championships didn’t make the squad that went to Rome last year.

At the end of the summer, Hoff decided to join Hutchison’s burgeoning group of female stars, including Ariana Kukors and Margaret Hoelzer. She enrolled at nearby Chapman University but found the change of scenery did not produce the immediate change in spirit she had hoped.

“I figured I would move and would be a whole different, newer, happier person,” Hoff said. “It didn’t happen that way. . . . I was trying so hard for things to be so perfect out here; it was kind of forced.”

Ziegler, meantime, tried sprint training to see if the change of pace would re-ignite her enthusiasm, but by spring reached the conclusion Hoff had reached a half a year before: She needed to start fresh. Urbanchek persuaded her to join a small group of mostly male distance swimmers at FAST for something of a summer session. The group trained twice a day, before and after Hutchison’s speed team completed its lone daily practice.

Ziegler liked it, and made plans to make a permanent move after the Pan Pacific Championships.

The first part of the summer “was fun, and I enjoyed it,” Ziegler said. “I’m a trainer at heart. I came out here and was really excited to get back into good, solid training.”

Hoff did not know Ziegler decided to join the group until after she arrived just under two months ago. The two were more rivals than friends as the 2008 Olympics approached, but their relationship has taken a positive turn.

They recently got together for lunch and found that they had much in common.

“We’ve become closer,” Hoff said. “In 2008, it was kind of a rough year between us because of the Kate vs. Katie thing. When I started swimming the 800, I think it messed with our relationship a bit. It was good to get together and talk to her. We were both put in the spotlight at an early age. ...

I think we’ve both been emotionally tired.”

Now they are both on the rebound, experiencing something of a mental and physical turnaround at precisely the same meet.

At the July 8-11 Los Angeles Grand Prix, Hoff won the 400 freestyle (4:06.21) and set a meet record in the process. Ziegler won the 800 — beating U.S. champion Chloe Sutton — in 8:25.89. Hoff added a victory in the 200 freestyle in 1:57.58, and Ziegler was elated to finish third in 1:59.77 that race, considering it is not a specialty for her.

“I had surprisingly good swims in all of my races,” Ziegler said. “My 800 was especially surprising.”

Hoff, too, was pleased. The grin she wore after her victory was duly noted.

Hoff and Ziegler say they are committed — at least as committed as they have been since Beijing — to competing through 2012.

Both would like another shot at an Olympic Games.

“I didn’t want to go out in the sport having the sport beat me,” Hoff said. “I wanted to go out on my own terms.”

amount of cooler water released into the Lower Deschutes from 30 percent to 40 percent deep (cooler) water.

“We expect to keep it at 40 percent all the way through October,” Don Ratliff, senior biologist for PGE, said this week. “We want to meet the state and tribal standards, and make the project invisible.

“What anglers will start to see is the benefit of water temperature management, and the cooling of the Lower Deschutes in late August and September like what it used to be before the dam.”

While water temperatures on the Lower Deschutes appear to be cooling now, the ODFW is asking anglers to take the following precautions when water temperatures are above 70 degrees and added stress to the fish could be a concern: • Fish during the cooler times of the day, usually mornings and evenings.

• Use barbless hooks, and play and land fish quickly.

• Release wild fish quickly.

Katie Stearns, of Bend, shoots from the back of her horse at a ranch near Tumalo earlier this month. The top mounted archers can make the 100-yard run while shooting three arrows in less than five seconds without touching the reins.

Shooting arrows, at full gallop T

op dead center. It is the sweet spot, the moment, at a gallop, when all four feet are off the ground, when the horse reaches the apex of fluid motion. In mounted archery, it is the moment to release the arrow.

Hooves beat thunder straight ahead, 100 yards on a straightaway. The first arrow is on the string, four more gripped behind the bow, just below the fletches, ready to grab by the nock.

At top dead center, I loosed the first arrow and sunk it in the dirt beside the target. The next shaft was in my hand, on the string. I passed the second target, but the third target was near and the horse beneath me, in rhythm.

Bow bent, arrow at my lips, there was a moment when the horse was off the ground and the second arrow loosed.

I fell off my first horse when I was 3 years old and bent my first bow when I was 5, but never thought I’d try both at the same time until Holm Neumann called.

We pulled into the ranch west of Tumalo in the shadow of a towering plume of smoke that would come to be called the Rooster

GARY LEWIS Rock Fire. Bombers from the Redmond Air Base dropped their payloads and circled for another run. Evening sunlight, filtered by heat and fire, cast an otherworldly glow over the juniper and sage.

I’d brought my own recurve, but Neumann wanted me to try a short reflex horse bow of about 46 inches. Light as a butterfly, the wood and fiberglass tool was lively in hand. I noticed that Neumann was right-handed, but the wear was on the right-hand shelf.

Neumann shoots off the opposite side of the bow with a thumb release in the Eastern European/ Asian style, which, I learned, was well suited to an archer shooting from the back of a horse.

We started in the barn between the stalls. “We shoot among the horses so that they get used to the bows, arrows and targets,” Neumann explained.

While I practiced Eastern European archery in the barn, Neumann and Katie Stearns saddled our horses. I would ride Pele, a 6year-old dappled gray that Susan Neumann told me was a “slow” archery horse. Slow in the way a single turbo Porsche is slow compared to a twin turbo Porsche. I was accustomed to riding horses that were, by comparison, pickup trucks.

Three-thousand years ago, Asian mounted warriors swept down on their enemies in stunning surprise attacks, loosing showers of arrows that scattered the survivors. Horseback culture came later to the Americas, in the mid-1600s when the Spanish brought the first horses.

The discipline of the mounted archer would have disappeared into history like smoke on the horizon, but for Kassai Lajos, who revived the tradition in Eastern Europe and taught it in training camps in North America. Now, mounted archery demonstrations and competitions are held the world over.

Four years ago, at age 68, Central Oregon’s own Holm Neu-

mann won the World Championship in South Korea. This year, Neumann and Stearns will host the International Mounted Archery Challenge outside of Bend, Oct. 2-3.

The Competition will have an Indian-Cowboy theme, since this is the time frame when horseback archery was traditionally practiced in America. For more information, visit www.mountedarchery.net Katie, on Zumbido, a white Mangalarga Marchador gelding, leaned into the turn and the horse gathered for the sprint, his long mane and tail caught by the wind. On the second lap, Katie, her auburn hair floating, dropped the reins and, guiding the horse with her knees, loosed an arrow at each of the three targets from a full gallop.

There was a time when a mounted hunter with a bow and arrow fed his or her family with game taken from the back of a horse. And in those days, a mounted warrior was the fiercest weapon a king or a chief fielded against an enemy.

In light of prior personal

equine experience, when the time came to decide between hat and helmet, I opted to protect my pate. Pele, named after the soccer player, was perhaps the finesttuned horse I have ever ridden, but he didn’t want to be ridden.

Think turbo-charged Porsche with a mind of its own. And good brakes.

Human stubbornness won over equine obstinateness. First we walked the course with Holm, then we trotted with Katie. My arrows hit the target. From the back of a horse you have to lead the bull by up to 10 feet depending on the steed. Finally, Pele felt sufficient motivation and boot heel to go full tilt.

No reins, shooting from top dead center, I didn’t hit the targets, but I stayed on top. And that was good enough for me for the first lesson.

FISHING REPORT

Trout fishing good on Metolius and Fall rivers Here is the weekly fishing report for selected areas in and around Central Oregon, provided by fisheries biologists for the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife:

CENTRAL ZONE ANTELOPE FLAT RESERVOIR: Antelope Flat Reservoir has been stocked twice with catchable rainbow trout and fishing is good. These fish will be able to take advantage of an ample food supply and should grow quickly.

CLEAR LAKE: Clear Lake has been stocked with lots of keepers and brood rainbow trout. Lake levels may be getting low due to irrigation withdrawals.

CRANE PRAIRIE RESERVOIR: With water temperatures over 70 degrees, the big rainbows have moved into deeper channels looking for cooler water.

Fish are more active in early morning or late evening.

CULTUS LAKE: There have been some good reports of nice rainbow trout and lake trout being harvested from

Cultus over the last several weeks.

DAVIS LAKE: Water temperatures have been over 70 degrees. The water level is low and boat access is limited.

Please note this is a fly-fishing only lake.

DESCHUTES RIVER (Mouth to the Northern Boundary of the Warm Springs Reservation): Fishing for summer steelhead has been good and water temperatures have cooled. Most of the summer steelhead are still below Sherars Falls, but expect numbers of fish to increase above Sherars as September approaches.

DESCHUTES RIVER (Lake Billy Chinook to Bend): Excellent opportunities for rainbow and brown trout. Rainbow trout average 10 to 16 inches, while brown trout up to 26 inches are available. Anglers will find better access downstream of Lower Bridge.

EAST LAKE: The lake is still producing nice kokanee.

FALL RIVER: Fishing has been good.

Nymphs have been particularly effective, but fish also are taking attractor dry-fly patterns.

LAKE BILLY CHINOOK: Smallmouth bass fishing is starting to pick up in the reservoir.

METOLIUS RIVER: Trout fishing has been good. Look for a golden stone hatch on the upper river, with pale morning duns and caddis hatches throughout the river.

ODELL LAKE: The fish have picked up some size over the summer and are averaging about 15 inches long. Anglers have had success trolling deep by the slide. Please note that all bull trout must be released unharmed.

PAULINA LAKE: The lake has been producing some nice kokanee.

SOUTH TWIN LAKE: Fishing has slowed down as the number of swimmers has gone up. Fish early or late in the day.

South Twin is a good lake for younger anglers as it has a good shoreline and is protected from the wind.

THREE CREEKS LAKE: This small lake near Sisters was stocked in late June and fishing has been very good for both recently stocked and holdover fish.

FLY-TYING CORNER

By Gary Lewis For The Bulletin

Summertime and the living is easy. Especially for the trout, when the river is bringing food on the current. One of the most reliable hatches on our Western streams is the caddis in all its variety. Afternoon brings the most surface activity, but an emerger pattern can often pay off with more fish than a dry fly.

If the fish refuse a dry, tie on a Lawson Caddis Emerger and work below the surface where trout take their protein.

Start with a leader about nine feet or longer, tapered to a 4X or 5X tippet, cast across, roll an upstream mend, let the fly swing and watch for the line to move with the take of a fish.

Cool mountain fling Mt. Bachelor course is a paradise for local disc golfers and their tag-along

By Alandra Johnson The Bulletin

possess a distinct disc-throwing deficiency (I blame the years of softball warping my arm to throw one way and one way only). On top of that, I find it hard to enjoy participating in an activity in which I so completely and utterly stink.

Because of this deficit, one might assume I would turn up my nose at a chance to go disc golfing with my husband and his buddies.

But when they decided to head to the disc golf course at Mt. Bachelor, I was delighted to join them and offer up my skills as a disc-spotter, scorekeeper and color commentator.

Whenever this course is open — usually just a few short months a year — my husband, Robin, tries to make as many trips as he can because it’s his favorite course.

Robin, our four friends and I headed up to Bachelor on Friday afternoon. The weather in town was sticky-hot, but as we drove toward the mountain, I happily watched the

temperature plummet. By the time we got to the mountain, the blistering heat had transformed into a lovely 75 degrees.

Whether summer visitors to Bachelor are disc golfing or hiking, there are a few things to keep in mind. The terrain is very rugged, covered with sharp lava rocks and crumbling dirt, so be sure to wear sneakers or hiking boots. Also be sure to bring some water.

We took the Pine Marten Express, the one lift operating during summer, up the mountain. People can also opt to hike up.

For those unfamiliar with the course, it’s a great idea to grab a map and scorecard from the office. People should also bring their own discs.

We got off the lift and surveyed our surroundings. Bachelor during the summer offers such a fun perspective, especially since so many of us are familiar with its wintertime snow shroud. It’s neat to see all of the signs for ski runs and the lift equipment sitting dormant during summer.

M a n’s ‘me time’ casts a pall on our ‘us time’

L.A. gets to play itself in ‘NCIS’

Dear Abby: I have been dating “Kate” for a year. She’s caring and down-to-earth. We have so much in common, and time goes by quickly when we’re together.

That’s why, when a new job brought Kate closer to my place, I told her she could stay with me so her commute would be less stressful while she gets used to the job and learns her way around. I enjoy making us dinner, since I get home two hours before she does.

After being single and living alone for six years, I want a relationship. Maybe in the future I’ll want her to move in with me. We spend weeknights together and go out as a couple every weekend.

But I also like “my time” and “my night out.”

I am a part-time publicist for an entertainer and try to keep up with the local music and club scene. Two nights out alone during the month work for me. I share the details with Kate — including the crazy things I see “singles” do when I’m out. I have explained to her how spending these nights on my own makes me appreciate her more when I return. But I feel a distinct “chill” from her when my night arrives.

I have no problem with Kate doing a “girls’ night out” on those evenings. Am I wrong to want alone time? Am I not committed enough to this relationship?

— Reasonable Guy in SoCal Dear Reasonable: It’s not wrong to want some time independent of Kate, particularly since it relates to your business. Her cool reaction may be related to her insecurities with your relationship, as well as the “crazy things” you’re describing when you get home.

It may have been a mistake to invite Kate to stay with you without a deadline after which you expect her to find her own place. Under the circumstances, she may think your relationship has progressed further than it really has.

Dear Abby: I cannot think of anyone else to turn to. I attend church, but don’t know a priest

DEAR ABBY well enough to confide in him.

I have been married 45 years.

My wife and I have a very good sex life. My problem is, over the past year my curiosity has increased about what it would be like to be with another man. I don’t have anyone in mind. I try not to think about it, but the idea excites me.

I enjoy looking at attractive women but often find myself wanting to give the other a try.

Please help me find an answer before I try something stupid. Abby, I hope you can offer me some advice in your column.

— Anonymous in Daytona Beach Dear Anonymous: Everyone has sexual fantasies, and although yours have recently been homosexual fantasies, it does not necessarily mean you would enjoy an encounter with another man.

Because you say you have a “very good sex life” with your wife, you may have some bisexual leanings.

However, 45 years ago you promised at the altar to be faithful to your wife. So I’ll offer the same advice I would have given to Adam if he had written me back then: Don’t take a bite of that apple because it could get you evicted from Eden.

Dear Abby: What do you say to people when you have a child in jail and they don’t know? Should you lie and say everything is fine?

— East Coast Mom Dear Mom: It depends upon how well you know the people and how much personal information you’re comfortable revealing about your family. But I don’t think you should lie because that kind of news has a way of traveling.

By Richard Verrier LOS ANGELES — Chris O’Donnell, wearing a navy blue vest and jeans, stood in the sun near La Brea Tar Pits, where a crowd of curious museum visitors and tourists were snapping photos of the star of the CBS hit series “NCIS: Los Angeles.”

As actor and rapper LL Cool J (aka James Todd Smith) rested in a director’s chair and signed autographs for children, O’Donnell waited for his cue to chase down his target standing a few yards away: a hapless T-shirt vendor dressed in a saber-toothed tiger costume who has information about a Mexican cartel.

“I’ve never been to the La Brea Tar Pits,” said O’Donnell, a Chicago native who was barely breaking a sweat after doing multiple takes of the chase scene on a recent Friday afternoon.

“You get to see so much of L.A.,” he said of the show’s local filming.

The action series, about a criminal investigation branch of the U.S. Navy, features not only LL Cool J and O’Donnell as special agents, but another, often overlooked character: the city of Los Angeles. Showcasing such landmarks as the Griffith Observatory, Union Station and La Brea Tar Pits, “NCIS: Los Angeles” is something of an anomaly in Hollywood in that it shoots mostly on location in greater L.A., which often stands in for other cities, rather than on a soundstage.

“We spend a lot of time re-creating other cities and places around the world, and it’s very rare that we get the opportunity to shoot Los Angeles for Los Angeles,” said Shane Brennan, the creator and writer for the series, which premieres its

Actors LL Cool J, Chris O’Donnell, Meta Golding, and Daniela Ruah walk among the crowds in Venice, Calif., during a recent shooting of an episode of “NCIS: Los Angeles.”

The CBS series films extensively on L.A.-area streets.

second season Sept. 21. “When you spend your career saying, ‘You’ve got to frame your shot so there are no palm trees,’ it’s very refreshing when we can say, ‘Bring on the palm trees.’”

Diversity of scenery Brennan, a native of Australia, said he set the series in Los Angeles in part to make it as different as possible from the original series, “NCIS,” which shoots in Santa Clarita and is set in Washington, but also to tap into the area’s diverse locations.

“I had always thought it had been a long time since a show showcased Los Angeles, maybe not since ‘L.A. Law’ in the 1990s and ‘Dragnet,’” he said, referring to the famous TV crime drama from the 1950s and 1960s.

Brennan and his producing team wanted to convey not just the gritty side of L.A. but the range of local landmarks, such as the Santa Monica Pier, the Roosevelt Hotel, the Original Farmers Market and the Kodak Theatre, where the crew recent-

ly shut down part of Hollywood Boulevard to film a chase scene.

Venice and Venice Beach, with its colorful boardwalk, also figure prominently in the series.

“You think you know what L.A. looks like because of what you’ve seen on movies and postcards, but here’s another side of it,” Brennan said.

Last season, producers persuaded transportation officials to let them shut down the 101 Freeway on a Sunday to film a car chase that spilled onto Mulholland Drive and culminated in a gunbattle in front of the Griffith Observatory.

“We try to pack as many iconic locations as we can into the story,” said John Peter Kousakis, executive producer on the show, which is based at the Paramount Studios lot in Hollywood. “For me, being a native Los Angeleno, it’s like nirvana.”

Unlike most TV shows, which do the majority of their filming on soundstages, “NCIS: Los Angeles” films five to six days out of eight on location. Filming so heavily on location, which is

more expensive than on a studio lot, isn’t cheap. It costs nearly $3 million an episode to film the show, which employs a crew of about 150.

But the exterior shots are crucial to the story. “Our show looks best when we’re outside,” said location manager Tony Salome. “It’s all about the action.”

That’s all right with LL Cool J. “For me, running, jumping, playing a Navy SEAL and getting to play with a lot of big toys — it’s fun,” he said. “I’m having a good time.”

Ray LaMontagne: On music, success — and push-ups

By Katie Leslie Cox Newspapers

ATLANTA — To say Ray LaMontagne is understated is an understatement.

The folk singer, known for his forceful, passionate voice and such swoon-worthy songs as “Trouble,” “Shelter” or “You Are The Best Thing,” is notoriously celebrity-wary, preferring the comforts of a good book and his Massachusetts farmhouse to rock-star parties and the red carpet.

But you have to admit: That makes him more interesting.

His well-known path to fame is unusual and nearly mythical: while working at a shoe factory in Maine in the late 1990s, he heard an inspiring song on the radio and decided to give up his blue-collar job to become a singer-songwriter.

We caught up with LaMontagne, 27, on tour in Colorado.

Q:

Q:

Your speaking voice is rather soft and elegant. It’s fairly different from your singing voice. How do you take care of it?

I don’t warm up or anything. I have a good friend on the road who works for Emmylou Harris and has for 25 years or so. He’s always telling me, “Ray, you need to warm up.

You need to warm up if you want that voice to last.”

For me, I sort of learned early on where to sing from. I just haven’t had a problem thus far, unless I’m sick or something. If I’m healthy, it just never seems to be a problem.

A:

Q: A:

Many musicians tell the stories behind their songs in concert, but you’re known for rarely announcing a song or sharing its tale. Why so?

That’s kind of the way I do it. I never liked that as a listener, when I would go to a show.

I always felt like it detracted from the show to hear a songwriter talk about the songs in between songs. It is sort of like going to see a magician who does a trick or something and tells you how he did it. It takes away from the mystery.

Q:

Your early albums had a folk-rock, almost ethereal vibe. Your third, “Gossip in the Grain,” showed elements of blues and ragtime. How would you characterize the sound of your upcoming album, “God Willin’ & The Creek Don’t Rise,” with the Pariah Dogs?

I really couldn’t tell you.

All I know is that I just love playing with these musicians and over the last couple of tours that we’ve done together, I just kept thinking at the end of the night that this is really special and we’re making a really beautiful sound together and I really wanted to capture this. I just love the sound we make.

A:

if accompanied by a legal guardian.)

David Gray/ Ray LaMontagne

Q: A:

Is this a long-term musical relationship?

I can certainly foresee us making another record together — soon, probably pretty soon.

Q: A:

Have your personal influences changed in the past few years?

That’s hard to say. The initial influences that get written about were the ones from the very first interview I ever did and they’ve been repeated and repeated. It’s not like I sit around listening to Stephen Stills all the time.

A:

What do you do on the road to decompress?

On the road, really, I just read a lot. And I do a lot of push-ups. Isn’t that wonderful and so romantic? I also carry a rower in a travel case. I’m very dedicated to it.

Q:

It’s well-known that you once lived in a cabin you built without running water and electricity. Has celebrity changed the way you and your family live?

I haven’t lived in the cabin that I built for years and years and years now. I have a lovely old estate in western Massachusetts now.

A:

Q: A:

When do you write?

I just write whenever a song comes knocking. … I try to give it some time. Because if you don’t, they just leave, you know? They just leave.

Q: A:

What do you say to those trying to chart your personal life from your song lyrics?

There are always bits of truth in there, but that would be pretty hard to sift through I think.

Q: A:

What do you make of your career and success so far?

I’m very pleased with it. I always hoped I would be able to make a living as a songwriter, so for that to come to fruition is really nice. I certainly know nothing is ever guaranteed — and who knows what the future will hold? — but I’m pleased with how the future is going.

It seems to be growing very naturally. And it also seems to be in direct relation to how much work I have put into it.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Thursday, Aug. 19, 2010: This year, focus on the quality of your daily life. You discover that some changes and tweaks here and there make all the difference.

For some, it might be a change of hours; for others, a new hobby; and yet for some, a new way of eating. If you are single, you also will meet different people because of this change. Be aware that someone you meet this year might not be around forever, but it works at this juncture. If you are attached, the two of you opt to take up a new pastime.

CAPRICORN tends to ground you.

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) HHH You could be stunned by news. Without any time lost, you will be at work resolving an issue. You will find that the “right” solution might not suit you personally. Separating work from your private life is more important than you realize.

Tonight: Count on a late dinner.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHH A partner or close friend does the unexpected, jolting you and perhaps others. Detach from the immediate situation.

Understanding the forces at work will point to how to handle the issue.

Tonight: Feed your mind with a great movie or maybe some music.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Perhaps in recent weeks you have noticed a tendency not

to be able to juggle many different concerns. Know that you cannot be everywhere. Handle an upset with a partner or associate.

Tonight: Talk over dinner.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH A morning surprise could force you to regroup. Others clearly have many opinions, and you will hear them, like it or not. In fact, a trusted partner or associate surprises you with his or her outlook and ideas.

Tonight: Just don’t be alone.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Head into work ready to deal with some contrariness.

You might think everything is OK, but others will let you know otherwise! Focus on one task at a time. Understanding evolves as the day gets older. Tonight: Revamp plans if need be.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Juggling different needs could be difficult, until you tap into your ingenuity. Try not to involve your funds in this creative drive.

If you want to take a risk, opt for an emotional one. You are more likely to be successful in this area. Tonight: Let the fun begin.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHH Make calls as soon as possible. You might want to say little and focus on a project. You will be hard-pressed to eliminate distraction. You will have to close your door at the office, if you can. Tonight: Head home.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Say “no” to a risk if you cannot afford the loss, especially financially. Communication

could be overwhelming. If you feel that you are going to lose your temper, opt for a walk or a change of scenery. Tonight: Catching up on a friend’s news.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHH Deal with some issues surrounding money. Meetings and friends seem to ask a lot right now.

Be graceful if you are postponing a reply or saying “no.” Given time, you will see the path to do what you want. A family member is capable of creating uproar.

Tonight: Treat a friend to dinner.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH You feel a change midmorning. Even if you encounter flak, you see many new options. You will be able to process a change and make it the most positive experience possible. A boss or older relative is difficult, to say the least.

Tonight: As you like -- finally.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH News or information could change a decision. Take your time, and don’t respond to others’ pressure. You will be processing this experience, and come out with a new point of view. Tonight: Take some much-needed personal time.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHHH You energize and decide to make sure an event or situation works out as you would like. You find that a partner or associate differs from your ideas. You also might need to revise your thinking.

You can control only yourself, your expectations and your desires.

Tonight: Where your friends are. © 2010 by King Features Syndicate

The Mt. Bachelor disc golf course offers gorgeous views and plenty of challenges.

Outing Continued from E1 The view from the top of the lift is spectacular, showcasing South Sister and Broken Top, as well as Todd and Sparks lakes.

A bit of a breeze made the setting all the more pleasant — a perfect getaway from the heat of town.

The disc golf course begins not too far from the lift and winds its way down to the bottom of the mountain, 18 holes in all. Disc golf is similar to regular golf in its format, but played with small, Frisbee-like discs. Players tee off from a flat pad by throwing their discs toward a basket. All of the holes are par 3, which means it should take a player three throws from the tee to get into the basket (and just like regular golf, getting a par is often a victory).

Robin calls this course very challenging and not good for beginners because it is so easy to lose discs on the course. In fact, one of our buddies, one of the best players among the group, lost his disc.

But the challenge is part of why so many disc golfers love this course. The change in elevation is also appealing. At some holes, the tee might be hundreds of feet above the basket. This means the thrower can fling his or her disc off the mountain and watch the disc go and go and go.

If the disc goes the right way, this is fun and satisfying. But any errant throw sends the disc really far off course.

Hunting down discs on this course is also tricky because of the terrain. During our outing, we spent plenty of time hunting for discs among clumpy, sharp

lava rocks, in piles of dirt and grass, around giant felled trees and branches and once in the boughs of a tree. This is where my disc-spotting skills came in

handy. On particularly tricky holes, I went ahead and kept an eye on where the discs landed (often it’s hard to see the landing from the tee pads).

The best parts of the trip (other than the awesome company), were the amazing views. The beauty of this course is, well, the beauty. Each tee offers a different gorgeous view of the mountains and trees. Plus the course itself is an adventure. The hiking is fairly intensive and fun. Nondisc golfers could easily have a fun day riding up and then hiking down just for the experience and the views (there are other paths that avoid the disc golf course).

Several recent federal reports have identified the foods most likely to make you sick.

A report out last week from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention cited poultry, beef and leafy vegetables as the foods most likely N U T R I T I O N to cause illness.

A separate report from the CDC, released last month, found that salsa and guacamole were an increasingly common source of food-borne disease.

Typically, people get sick from salsa and guacamole eaten at restaurants, the report found. In the decade ending in 2008, these two foods accounted for 4 percent of foodborne disease outbreaks that began in restaurants, more than double the rate observed in the previous 13 years.

Given that more than half the time investigators never identify the source of an outbreak, 4 percent is not an insignificant number.

Researchers from the CDC theorized that salsa and guacamole were common sources of illness because they often contain raw produce, including tomatoes, cilantro and hot peppers, which have all been implicated in outbreaks.

while patients feel they are being denied access to potentially life-changing treatments.

A test case The debate has boiled over in recent years among doctors treating patients with fibromyalgia, a systemic condition marked by chronic pain and a host of difficult-to-treat symptoms. Until recently, there were N E Y no drugs specifically tested and approved for the treatment of fibromyalgia. Instead, doctors used a variety of medications approved to treat things like depression, seizures, pain or muscle spasms, a practice known as off-label use.

Then in 2007, Pfizer’s Lyrica became the first drug approved by the Food and Drug Administration specifically for the treatment of fibromyalgia. Doctors thought it would be their go-to medication for treating the condition, but insurers thought differently.

ith the steady flow of new drugs emerging each year from the pharmaceutical research pipeline, doctors can often choose from a variety of drugs to treat a given health problem. But with each new entry, doctors, patients and health plans must determine whether the new drug is any better than the drugs that preceded it.

Increasingly, when there’s no M O definitive answer, it’s money that decides the issue. Insurance companies are routinely limiting access to new drugs unless patients show that older, less expensive drugs aren’t working for them.

Insurers argue that they’re protecting against the risk of undiscovered problems with unproven drugs and being good stewards of limited health care resources. But doctors counter that health plans are interfering with their ability to practice medicine, and doing so for their own financial gain,

The scary side of food

Fibromyalgia drug approval timeline 1961 Amitriptyline (Elavil) approved

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — At 5 p.m., as Jose Vega uncaps a tiny, $100 tube of ointment, he thinks of work. As a chef at Jabinero’s, he should already be spreading ingredients — onions, peppers, meats — across the restaurant stovetop. But instead, he’s spreading ointment over two rows of stitches in his eyes, and he can’t come close to that, or any, stove for five more weeks.

That means for another five weeks, his wife Tanya Vega will have to keep the family of five afloat with nonstop nightly shifts at St. Luke’s Hospital on top of nursing school classes.

Vega, who had his third pterygium — a layer of tissue that grows over the eye, starting at the inside corner — removed last week, has to stay away from sun and

heat that long to recover.

The pterygiums, which Vega got subjecting his eyes to too much sunlight, are just one of many problems the sun can cause in human eyes, said Vega’s surgeon, Carl Stout of Discover Vision. Others, he said, vary from a keratitis — a sun burn on the eye — to both a higher risk and a faster onset of more serious conditions like cataracts and macular degeneration.

The danger for all eye damage from the sun is significantly greater in the summertime.

In summer, people are closer to the sun, and its light is more intense, like when people visit the equator. A number of seasonal activities, such as water sports and games on concrete, only raise that risk by exposing people to reflected light, too.

GIANT-TIRE WORKOUTS

Cardiologist James O’Keefe flips a tractor tire during a “total body” workout at Bishop Miege High School in Roeland Park, Kan.

Getting a major lift Routine relies on old tires to build functional strength

By Edward M. Eveld McClatchy-Tribune News Service

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Fun with tires: You have no idea.

Corey Scott grips a truck tire with both hands and stands with his back to a brick wall. He lifts the tire while rotating his upper body and slams it against the wall over his left shoulder.

The kickback is impressive, but he regains his balance and immediately swings the tire diagonally downward, hitting the wall about knee level on his right side.

AT HOME

The body mass index (BMI) isn’t a perfect measure for obesity. Convenience and routine are on its side — so health experts aren’t likely to stop using it any time soon — but its limitations have got some doctors thinking.

In a study published online in the journal Pediatrics, researchers at the University of Michigan’s Mott Children’s Hospital found measurements of neck circumference to be a reliable technique for assessing whether children are overweight or obese.

Using a sample pool of 1,102 children (divided into four categories — 6 to 10 years of age and 11 to 16 years of age, male and female), the team studied the correlation of kids’ neck circumference with measurements of their heights, weights and waist circumferences, as well as with their ages and BMI statistics.

The results confirmed that — more than any other screening technique — neck circumference was the most reliable alternative to BMI, when adjusted to a child’s age and gender. But the findings went one step further than that, said Dr. Olubukola “Bukky” Nafiu, who led the study, Measuring neck circumference was more convenient and was more accurate than BMI at identifying children with weight problems, he said.

“The body mass index doesn’t tell you what is responsible for someone’s weight. In some cases it could all come from muscle, but your BMI could still indicate that you are overweight,” he said. The possibility of a child having an excessively muscular neck that may skew results is not a problem as it can be with adults, some of whom develop big, muscle-bound necks, he added.

Fat distribution is another problem associated with reliance on the BMI. Researchers are beginning to learn more about how fat on the body can lead to different degrees of health risks depending on the area of accumulation — fat around the middle, in particular, is associated with raised risk for high blood pressure, diabetes and high cholesterol..

Said Nafiu, “The BMI doesn’t tell you where the fat in someone’s body is collected.”

IN MOTION Got your lucky rabbit’s foot? It may help you in your next race Do you wear a lucky shirt on race day? Or perform some other superstitious ritual before trying to drain a long putt? New research suggests it just might help.

“I watch a lot of sports and I read about sports, and I noticed that very often athletes — also famous athletes — hold superstitions,” said Lysann Damisch, a researcher from the University of Cologne in Germany.

“And I was wondering, why are they doing so?”

Damisch and her colleagues designed a series of experiments to find out if superstitions had any impact on performance.

They asked volunteers to bring a lucky charm and took the charm away from them with the pretext of photographing it. Half of the volunteers got their charms back before taking a memory game on the computer. The other half were told there was a malfunction with the camera equipment and they’d get their charm back after the game.

The researchers found that, sure enough, the test subjects who had their lucky charms by their side scored better in the game than those without. Other tests showed those with their charms felt more confident and set higher goals for themselves.

Just wishing somebody good luck, such as saying, “I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you,” improved performance in a game of manual dexterity. So go ahead, pocket that lucky rabbit’s foot, wear your rally cap, and don’t wash your socks after winning a race.

“It doesn’t mean you’ll win, because of course, winning and losing is something else,” Damisch said. “Maybe the other person is stronger.”

Eyes

“Any optometric or ophthalmologic facility that sells glasses,” he also added, “will have it for sure.”

Next, Hahn said, people just need to be equally careful in wearing their sunglasses as in shopping for them.

“They should be worn year round,” she said, “because the snow often reflects just as bad as water in the summer.”

Continued from F1 But unfortunately, a lack of awareness on the harm of sunlight to eyes, and what people need for full protection, is also great, Strout said. As a result, doctors are trying to educate their patients in each exam.

“It’s just one more thing that we can protect ourselves from, if we’re a little aware of the problem,” said Lee Duffner, AAO correspondent and Hollywood, Fla., ophthalmologist. “If we’re totally unaware of the problem, nobody’s going to do anything.”

Don’t forget the kids

The sun’s power Of the sunlight’s three kinds of ultraviolet light — UVA, UVB and UVC — only the first two types, common for sunglass labels, enter the atmosphere to be of concern. Most eye problems occur due to UVB light, which has a shorter wavelength that can penetrate the cornea.

Some of these conditions, like keratitis, can develop in a day or afternoon, especially at a pool or lake where water reflects the light. But the risk for most of them, and especially the more serious ones like cataracts, macular degeneration or pterygiums, rises more gradually with light exposure. Like with pterygiums, the damage is cumulative over the course of years.

“The interesting thing about a lot of UV damage that occurs as adults is you don’t really see it until adulthood,” said optometrist Jason Rogers, of Drs. Hawks, Besler & Rogers in Overland Park, Kan. Rogers said he always recommends people exercise caution and always wear sunglasses because they often can’t properly perceive the level of harm they are doing. The cornea of the eye has more nerve endings than any other part of the body, but the damage often needs to reach the point of a keratitis for people to feel pain.

Even with a keratitis, or sunburned eye, people often can’t pinpoint the pain they do feel, Rogers said, because they’ve been swimming and assume the discomfort is due to chlorine.

And if they could, he added, the study of UV damage to eyes hasn’t reached a place where they can look back and count their exposure to their current level of risk, like with sunburns, anyway.

Wear sunglasses Doctors recommend people consider three main factors when buying sunglasses: the lenses, their intended use and the frame.

So far, most of the country isn’t paying attention.

According to an Eye-Q survey released last month by the American Optometric Association, the majority of Americans prioritize style, comfort or price ahead of protection.

For lenses, Stout said he advises that the most important element to have is UV 400 protective coating or, in percentages, lenses that provide 99 percent to 100 percent UVA and UVB protection. Rogers said that with eyes, all people are at equal risk, so he always gives the same message: unlike with skin cancer, everyone needs the same level of UV protection, regardless of ethnicity or eye color.

“You can look at different ethnic backgrounds and which one has a higher risk for a certain

Every two hours, Jose Vega uses ointment to help his right eye, lined with two rows of stitches, heal from surgery. The cost of the ointment and the operation — his third due to perygiums, or growths caused from excessive UVA light exposure — has put a financial strain on his family of five in Kansas City, especially as he takes a six-week leave from work without pay.

When buying sunglasses, keep in mind ...

UV protection: Wear only sunglasses that offer UV 400 — or 99 percent to 100 percent — protection against UVA and UVB rays.

Frames: Choose a pair that wraps around your eyes to block light from the sides. Pick one with lenses large enough to cover your eyelids and the skin around your eyes, too, to protect against skin cancer.

Function: Some people who spend a significant amount of their time by the water often prefer polarized lenses because they reduce glare off of the water. Others, who need precise vision far away, pick amber ones because they seem to enhance details at a distance. Lenses that are dark gray — the color of the visors pilots use — allow a person to see things as they naturally appear.

Brand: Don’t pick out an expensive designer pair and assume you are paying for the best lenses for your eyes. Often, you’re just paying for the frame and good optics, or clarity, in the lenses. Harmful UVA and UVB rays can still pass through to the eyes. Any optometric or ophthalmologic facility and most stores such as Walmart, CVS Pharmacy, Costco and Sam’s Club offer sunglasses with full UV protection.

Lens color: A darker lens does not necessarily mean a more protective lens. Read the UV protection label.

type of skin cancer,” Rogers said.

“But for eye stuff, it’s across the board.”

As for lenses with full protection, Stout said people still have a pretty wide range of flexibility.

Some who spend a significant amount of their time by water often prefer polarized lenses because they reduce glare off of the water. Others, who need precise vision far away like for driving, pick amber ones because they seem to enhance details at a distance. Stout said he usually suggests a lens that is dark grey — the color of the visors pilots use — because it allows a person to see things as they naturally appear.

Optometrist Melissa Hahn of Olathe (Kan.) Family Vision said that, to ensure full protection, people should also be careful that whatever lenses they pick are a large enough size. To be safe, she said, they should select both a frame that wraps around the face and lenses that cover the eyes and the surrounding skin and eyelids completely.

If they don’t, Rogers said, people can actually develop skin cancers around their eyes and on their eyelids. On the eyelid, he said, a skin cancer can be much worse that it would be elsewhere because the skin is so thin. Often, removing the cancer requires major reconstructive surgery.

“We’re seeing a lot of skin cancers called basil cell carcinomas,” he said. “It’s pretty common.”

In terms of cost, Rogers warned that price stickers can often be misleading. Frequently, he said, people will pick out an expensive designer pair they like and assume their paying for the best lenses for their eyes. But really they’re often just paying for the frame and good optics, or

UV-what?

The different kinds of ultraviolet — or UV — light rays: UVA: Long wavelength • Harm the membrane covering the white part of the eye.

• Can cause a cinguecula, or a thickening of the membrane, and eventually pterygiums, or growths.

UVB: Shorter wavelength • Penetrate the cornea, or middle, of the eye.

• Can cause short-term problems like a keratitis, or sunburn, on the eye.

• Can lead to a higher risk, and faster onset, for long-term conditions such as cataracts and macular degeneration.

UVC: Shortest wavelength • Don’t penetrate the atmosphere and aren’t a concern.

clarity, in the lenses. The harmful UVA and UVB rays still pass through to the eyes.

“We have a UV meter in our office, and we’ll have patients bring in their lenses,” Rogers said. “A lot of them don’t have full coverage at all.”

On the contrary, Stout said people can pick up a perfectly adequate pair of sunglasses pretty cheaply. Most Walmart, CVS Pharmacy, Costco and Sam’s Club stores, he said, have inexpensive pairs with ample UV protection.

In summer, doctors say kids are usually the ones who go outside most often without sunglasses.

“This time of year, they tend to be outside a fair amount more than adults,” Rogers said. “And most of that time is by pools, where 50 percent of light comes from reflective surfaces.”

They are also the most vulnerable to damage from the sun.

Under the age of 10, Rogers said, kids can have eyes that allow as much as 75 percent of UV light to pass through to the back of their eye. By age 25, the eyes become less translucent, letting only 10 percent of light penetrate.

“The natural lens that’s inside the eye,” Rogers said, “in kids, it’s super clear, so clear they don’t seem to be bothered as much by light and glare.” But early on when their lens is clear is when they especially need to keep their eyes protected, he added. “Because their lens is so clear,” he said, “they get more exposure.”

To protect themselves, children should always wear sunglasses, Stout said, and even consider using UV protective goggles while in the water. Hahn said parents should get them started as soon as possible.

“We actually recommend that they start wearing sunglasses even as a child, an infant,” Hahn said.

For Jose Vega, the time when he was young and spent what he calls “la mayoria del tiempo afuera” in Mexico has long passed. He was just a normal boy then who loved to play soccer, a normal kid like thousands of others — in Mexico and here — who loved spending summertime outdoors.

But now, in the form of surgeries, Jose Vega is paying a steep price for never learning to cover his eyes. The cost of each of the three he has undergone since 1999 has varied from $600 to $900. With each one, he has also had to sacrifice more unpaid work time than most patients like him because cooking requires him to be by a burner and heat that his eyes can’t yet handle.

Still, after both eyes and already one repeat because the tissue cut from the top of his right eye didn’t take to the side surface as planned, he could someday need more. But by now, Vega isn’t sure he would accept that, despite that meaning he could live his whole life with a ball of scar tissue that hurts like debris.

“He’s always been the main income. And then, to lose that main income, it’s been tough,” said Tanya, who now often works 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. and then attends her nursing school classes from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. before another night shift.

Vega is supposed to spend two full months off work, but he has decided to only take six weeks to relieve his wife, Tanya, sooner.

Two weeks before he starts, he says, his kids will return home from their summer in Mexico to three new pairs of 100 percent UV protective sunglasses, waiting for them to wear.

FACT OR FICTION? THE CLAIM:

The left side of the brain is the logical half; the right side is the creative half.

This popular notion is true, said Dr. Richard Koller, a neurologist at NorthStar Neurology in Bend. The brain is split into two hemispheres, with a bundle of nerves connecting the two and allowing them to talk to one another. Each side has different functions; for example, most people use primarily their left brain for language and right brain for recognizing a face.

In general, said Koller, the more creative activities we engage in tend to be controlled by

the right hemisphere and those involving logical thinking tend to be governed by the left. But, said Koller, “it’s not exclusive,” and tasks that involve a good portion of our brains, painting a picture, say, or working through a difficult math problem, likely use elements found on both sides of the brain.

A new knee or hip could mean pounds lost as well

By Jeannine Stein Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — Hip and knee replacement surgery is supposed to alleviate pain and allow people to move better and lead a more active lifestyle.

A new study published recently in the journal Orthopedics shows that could be the case, because weight loss may be one side effect of getting new knees and hips.

Researchers looked at preand post-surgery weight in 196 randomly selected patients who had hip or knee replacement surgery from 2005 to 2007 due to osteoarthritis. Their body mass index was noted before surgery, and patients were followed for an average 20 months. A 5 percent weight reduction was considered significant weight loss.

Instead of just calculating how much weight patients gained or lost over the course of the study, researchers factored in how much weight people naturally gain on average per year from ages 29 to 73. Generally, they noted, men gain an average 8.8 pounds and women an average 7.6 pounds over eight years.

After adjusting for that natu-

ral weight gain, a trend could be seen toward lower weight and BMI after surgery. Among all participants, after correcting for weight gain, 19.9 percent showed significant weight loss.

Those who had knee replacements had a more substantial decrease in BMI than those who had hip replacements, and those who were obese at the start of the study also lost more weight than their lighter counterparts.

Researchers concluded that although getting a new knee or hip won’t cure obesity, the results from the study suggest that such surgery may be the catalyst to getting people to lose weight. What might help even more, they added, is including diet and exercise guidance in the mix.

In a news release, lead author Dr. Michael Bronson said, “Both total knee patients and total hip patients experienced a statistically significant and clinically significant corrected weight loss following surgery, which indicates a healthier overall lifestyle.” Bronson is chief of joint replacement surgery at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York City.

Are you wearing high heels?

Anita Henderson, MD

Think about the future health consequences

By Jessie Schiewe Los Angeles Times

If there’s one thing to be learned from “Sex and the City,” it’s that women love high heels.

Sure, they might be painful to wear and challenging to walk in (for some of us, anyway), but as the saying goes, beauty is pain.

But blisters might not be the only downside to wearing high heels. In fact, the damage might be occurring higher up on the body — in the ankle, knee and hip, according to new research being presented later this month at the annual meeting of the American Society of Biomechanics.

Another key finding: The high-

er the heel, the greater the risk.

The study was conducted by Danielle Barkema, a kinesiology student pursuing a master’s degree at Iowa State University (who admits to wearing high heels occasionally herself). She said she got the idea from her twin sister, who wears heels all day in her department store job and noticed that many of her older heel-wearing colleagues had problems with their knees and hips.

To test the consequences of wearing fancy footwear, Barkema recruited 15 women and asked them to strut around her laboratory on a special platform

that measured the motion of their joints and the forces acting upon them. Sensors and motion cameras also documented the force and pressure in the women’s legs as they wore flats, 2-inch heels and 3.5-inch heels.

It turned out that their knees and ankles absorbed the most wear and tear. Higher heels increased the compression inside the knee, creating additional joint pain and strain, Barkema said in an interview.

Still, she emphasized that the take-home message of her study is not to eliminate heels from one’s wardrobe, but to limit their wear.

Question: My dentist told me that I have to have a crown due to another broken tooth. How can I stop breaking my teeth so I don’t have any more crowns?

QUESTION: I have chronic spinal pain which improves with chiropractic and physical therapy but the pain always returns.

Can your clinic help me?

Answer: A common cause of spinal pain is due to underlying instability of the joint complex due to injury, poor posture, or normal age related degenerative changes.

As ligaments become lax due to injury/postural strain or discs begin to lose height this alters the movement within the joint complex. In response to this abnormal or excessive Payson Flattery, movement muscles tighten up to stabilize and protect N.D., D.C., PC the joint resulting in pain and discomfort. Chiropractic treatment temporarily relaxes the muscles but the pain and tightness return due to the underling instability. So, the lack of mobility is often due to underlying ligamentous instability (too much movement) resulting in muscle tightness. Physical therapy can be very helpful if the muscles can be strengthened to compensate for the lack of ligamentous integrity. However, when the exercise is discontinued the muscles loose the strength to effectively stabilize the joint complex and pain often returns. Prolotherapy or Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) involves the injection of dextrose or growth factors (PRP) into and around the ligaments triggering a controlled inflammatory cascade. This regenerates injured or insufficient tissue (including cartilage, tendon, and ligament) and effectively resolves chronic or recurrent pain in 80-90% of select cases.

Dr. Payson Flattery has been practicing and teaching regenerative injection techniques for over 10 years. For more information contact our office.

Answer: I’m sorry that you have teeth that are breaking. Once a tooth breaks there is little you can do to avoid having a crown. The approach in dentistry to broken teeth has changed quite a bit Kelley Mingus, D.M.D. in recent years. In the past the approach to broken teeth has been reactive. Large fillings over time cause your teeth to become weakened and eventually lead to broken teeth. Once the tooth breaks we place a crown on it to regain the strength it once had.

Technology has given us the opportunity to be proactive instead of reactive. The number of crowns I do has been reduced by 75% over the last few years Rather than waiting for the teeth to break and then doing a crown, I now predict when a tooth is at risk of fracturing and treat it with a conservative onlay prior to it fracturing. A proactive approach can allow you to avoid having crowns and allow a more conservative approach without sacrificing longevity or health.

Answer:

Annette Cyr, BA, PTA

The common contributing factors to shoulder pain are poor posture, overuse, and weakness and muscle imbalance. The rotator cuff is made up of four muscles that surround and stabilize the shoulder joint. The muscles tendons join together at the top of the joint to form the rotator cuff. The rotator cuff functions optimally when the four muscles are strong and in balance with each other. Without this the rotator cuff can easily become irritated and inflamed, causing tendonitis.

Tendonitis can be quite painful and is classically aggravated by shoulder motions such as reaching up, out to the side, or reaching behind yourself. If you have poor posture or muscle imbalances, these motions can cause impingement of the tendons that result pain.\ Physical Therapy decreases the inflammation and teaches you how to make and keep the posture corrections that will make a big difference.

Specific individualized exercises and stretches are also prescribed to bring the shoulder and postural muscles into balance.

Q UESTION : I’ve been experiencing neck pain symptoms for over a year following a car crash related whiplash injury. Why am I still hurting?

Answer: Statistically, nearly 50% of people suffering from a whiplash injury as a result of a motor vehicle crash will experience long term pain symptoms (for longer than 1 year). About 10% will experience some degree of residual disability.

A person’s neck can experience significant forces in a Brad Pfeiffer, rear end collision, even one considered to be minor.

DC Researchers from Yale University previously found that during simulated collisions, the force in the lower portion of the neck reached 60 pounds of force in about 1/20 of a second. Numerous studies have found that these forces far exceed the normal physiological range of the ligaments that hold the spine together.

The same researchers from Yale recently confirmed severe stretching and weakening of the facet joint ligaments after exposure to simulated whiplash and associate increased laxity of the capsular ligaments in whiplash patients as a component perpetuating chronic pain and clinical instability.

The capsular ligaments contain both mechanoreceptive and nociceptive nerve endings. A whiplash injury causing increased laxity in these ligaments may also injure these nerve structures causing inflammation and pain, and may also lead to residual instability, altered load patterns, further nerve tissue impingement, altered muscle response patterns, muscle spasm, repositioning errors, and altered neck range of motion.

A D VA N C E D C A R E Q UESTION : So often people say they have

diverticulitis when it is really diverticulosis.

What is the difference? And what do I do if I have diverticulosis to prevent getting diverticulitis?

A N S W E R : This can be a confusing issue.

Diverticulosis is a condition of the intestines in which there are out-pouchings or small sacs protruding from the bowel wall. This is a benign Jana VanAmburg, condition, but significant complications can develop MD, FACS. which frequently lead to operative intervention.

Among the most common complication of diverticulosis is diverticulitis, which is technically a micro perforation of one of the diverticular sacs. This leads to infection; fever, pain, diarrhea and peritonitis. Uncomplicated diverticulitis is treated with antibiotics and a soft diet for a week or two to allow healing.

Sometimes diverticulitis worsens and an abscess may develop in the abdomen after a perforation. Other complications of diverticulitis include fistula or abnormal connection between the intestine and another hollow organ such as the vagina or urinary bladder. Finally, a life-threatening perforation of the bowel may occur with bowel contents spilling into the abdominal cavity causing a septic syndrome.

Emergent abdominal operation is needed in this case. To try and prevent complications associated with diverticulosis, a high fiber diet is recommended. Nuts and seeds should be ingested sparingly and with other foods as these may initiate a diverticulitis.

ANSWER: What You Can Do to Reduce Risk Yes, you can lessen the risk of developing macular degeneration by reducing risk factors within your control, such as smoking and high blood pressure. You are never too young to reduce your risk for disease, so, no matter what your age; you can incorporate the following guidelines into your life.

• Quit smoking • Control high blood pressure • Control cholesterol level • Control cardiovascular disease • Improve nutrition and take a multi-vitamin a day • Take Omega-3 or fish oil supplements daily

• Wear 100% UV protective sunglasses • Curb sugar intake • Maintain ideal body weight • Exercise regularly • Reduce your intake of red meat especially char grilled red meat

By following these guidelines, you not only may reduce your risk of developing macular degeneration, but you may also be able to stabilize or slow the effects of vision loss if you have already been diagnosed with the disease. And remember most of these recommendations are anti-cancer and anti-aging as well.

QUESTION: I have spider veins on my legs. What

causes these and can they be treated?

ANSWER: Spider veins appear as small red, blue or purple veins just below the surface of the skin.

They usually branch out in lines or in a spiderweb shape and most often occur on the legs.

Unlike varicose veins which are much larger, they are usually a cosmetic issue rather than a health concern. Spider veins on the legs occur for several reasons. Heredity may play a major role in developing spider veins. Hormone changes, increased pressure from prolonged standing, pregnancy, and leg crossing as well as excess sun exposure that breaks down collagen and elastin in the skin can also increase your risk. Sclerotherapy is commonly used for treatment. This procedure uses a sclerosing solution injected into the veins that irritates the lining of the vessel causing it to swell, stick together and close off. Laser therapy is also used to treat spider veins, using strong bursts of light directed at the vessels. Contact a health care provider trained in the treatment of spider veins to discuss treatment options.

FA M I LY M E D I C I N E QUESTION: Several people in my family have been diagnosed with gastric ulcers. I have occasional abdominal pain over my stomach. How do I go about finding out if I have an ulcer?

ANSWER: Gastric ulcer or Peptic Ulcer Disease (PUD) is a common problem and can be diagnosed with several different tests. The most accurate study is an esophagogastroduodenoscopy or EGD. This is Kevin Reuter, M.D. performed under light anesthesia and a camera is passed into the stomach and first part of the small intestine to visualize the lining of the alimentary tract. Biopsies can be taken and bleeding controlled if an ulcer is visualized. The bacteria Helicobacter pylori can cause ulcers and treatment with a cocktail of medications including antibiotics can then be commenced if the bacteria is detected. Other ways to check for the bacteria are with a blood test, stool test, or a urea breath test. Risk factors for developing ulcers include smoking, alcohol abuse, illicit drug use, and use of NSAIDs such as ibuprofen or aleve. Complications such as stomach perforation or gastric outlet obstruction can occur if ulcers are left untreated.

In general, if you have had an ulcer, you should be on medication to help suppress gastric acid and your doctor can help you decide which medication to choose.

My question is:

THE BULLETIN • Thursday, August 19, 2010 F5

M Cheaper Continued from F1 Many set up prior authorization conditions for the drug, requiring patients to try the seizure medication gabapentin or antidepressants such as amitriptyline first. If those generic drugs didn’t work for the patient, then the insurer would pay for Lyrica.

Physicians were stunned that insurance companies would force them to prescribe a drug that wasn’t even approved for fibromyalgia before they could use a drug that was.

“We know (Lyrica is) safe, we know what the side effects are and we know that for fibromyalgia, it’s very effective,” said Dr. Cody Wasner, a Eugene rheumatologist and president of the Oregon Rheumatology Alliance.

“And yet we are forced to do the opposite.”

When two more brand-name drugs, Cymbalta and Savella, were approved for fibromyalgia, insurers put in place the same preconditions. Patients had to fail with the generics before they could get the new drugs.

LifeWise Health Plan of Oregon, for example, requires fibromyalgia patients to fail on gabapentin and at least two other generics before approving Cymbalta. The insurer did not agree to an interview, but in an e-mail to The Bulletin said it uses the approach, known as step therapy, “to ensure that members are receiving clinically appropriate and cost-effective medications.” The LifeWise officials said they will approve a more expensive drug if a physician is already having success treating a patient with it.

That can happen, for example, if a patient transfers from another plan or has paid for the drug himself during a test period.

Last year, the rheumatology group appealed to Regence Blue Cross Blue Shield, the largest insurer in Oregon, to stop the practice, but was rebuffed. Appeals to the state’s insurance commission, the pharmacy board and even the Legislature all proved fruitless.

There still have been no headto-head comparisons of the effectiveness of the older generics against the new brand-name drugs in treating fibromyalgia.

But doctors say they’ve noticed fewer side effects with the newer drugs. It has put them in a difficult position of being unable to prescribe the drug they think will be the best choice for patients.

“The physician has an ethical dilemma, in that they have to say, ‘Am I going to give the patients side effects to satisfy the insurance company, so they can be able to afford the drug that we think is more appropriate?’” Wasner said. “The insurance company is really practicing medicine without a license and by way of the pocketbook, interfering with the best care.”

Seeking relief Patients often see the new drugs as the latest and greatest, spurred by the hope that they represent a new breakthrough that will finally relieve their long-standing pain. And pharmaceutical companies drive demand with directto-consumer advertising and patient education websites that tout their products. So when insurance companies require patients to try multiple generics first, it can seem like pointless hoops to jump through to get the drugs they want and their doctors recommend.

Patients and their advocates see little medical justification but plenty of economic reasons why the generics should be considered the drugs of choice.

“It’s strictly financial,” said Rae Gleason, executive director of the National Fibromyalgia Association. “The thing about it that is so sad is that so many of these patients have been on these other medications already and know they don’t work.”

Gleason said each of the three brand-name medications works for about 30 percent of fibromyalgia patients. A fourth drug, sodium oxybate, is awaiting FDA approval. In phase three trials, the most rigorous step in the testing process, the drug significantly reduced fibromyalgia pain in more than 50 percent of patients. That would represent a quantum leap over the old generics, but Gleason said she expects to see insurance companies put up the same roadblocks for patients if the new drug is approved.

“They absolutely will. It’s horrible, but this one will be very expensive,” Gleason said.

Next week Bend’s draw as a retirement community is helping staff Volunteers in Medicine.

Fibromyalgia Fibromyalgia is a complex chronic pain illness recognized by the National Institutes of Health and the American College of Rheumatology. An estimated 10 million Americans — about 3 to 6 percent of the population worldwide — have the condition.

• The cause of fibromyalgia remains a mystery, but researchers have discovered several clues.

• A physical trauma may act as a trigger • Sometimes runs in families, suggesting a genetic condition • Many believe the condition amplifies pain that would not ordinarily be painful in healthy people

• Focuses on relieving symptoms and maintaining function • Variety of medications used to reduce pain and improve sleep • Alternative therapies such as acupuncture and massage can also provide symptomatic relief

For the insurance companies, the difference comes down to paying anywhere from $75 to $150 a month for the three brandname drugs now on the market versus approving a generic that often costs less than the patient’s co-payment. But that still pales in comparison with many of the more expensive drugs that are routinely covered.

“None of these drugs is very expensive. They’re all in the neighborhood of about $100 per month, said Kim Dupree Jones, an assistant professor of nursing and medicine at Oregon Health

• In addition to chronic widespread body pain, fibromyalgia can have a variety of symptoms including fatigue, cognitive issues, stiffness and disordered sleep.

• Patients may also experience other problems such as irritable bowel, headaches and migraines, restless legs syndrome, chronic fatigue syndrome, and depression • Symptoms tend to wax and wane

Insurers, however, say the evidence is simply not that cut and dry when it comes to comparing the new products with the track record of the generics.

“We looked at the science of the nonapproved agents for fibromyalgia and the FDA-approved agents, and there wasn’t a difference in the evidence across all the options,” said Helen Sherman, vice president and chief pharmacy officer for Regence.

Sherman said there was no evidence — as doctors had claimed — that there are fewer side effects with the newer brand-name drugs. Because these drugs are relatively new to the fibromyalgia market, insurers can’t assume that adverse side effects won’t become evident as more patients are prescribed the drugs.

“Early out of the gate, we just don’t know what we don’t know about a new medication,” she said. “Just because it hasn’t been detected in a scientific study, there may be issues there that are undetected. We’ve seen so many examples of that.”

Sherman said step therapy is used for brand-name drugs that are likely to be expensive or prescribed in large volumes when comparative effectiveness research isn’t available. As more patients take these drugs, their experiences will help to inform the decision-making process.

“The generic medications for fibromyalgia had decades of experience,” she said. “We want to at least see a couple of years experience for the new medications, if everything else was equal.”

Sherman said the company evaluates new drugs based on their relative value, taking into account effectiveness, side effects and price.

“Price is actually the tail end and the least weighed in,” she said. “If something is a lot more effective than the other options but costs more, we will embrace that product as a high-value choice.”

There have been many cases where newer brand-name drugs have proven no better or even worse than the older generics. Research funded by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, for example, found that more expensive brand-name antibiotics were not as effective as some of the less expensive generic antibiotics for treating middle ear inflammation in young children.

Medicaid, which in this state is called the Oregon Health Plan, typically reimburses doctors at a lower rate than Medicare or private insurance plans. As a result, the majority do not accept new patients with the insurance, often leaving those without a physician who will treat them.

& Science University in Portland, and director of the Fibromyalgia Information Foundation. “In the rheumatology clinic, I’m used to dealing with drugs that are thousands of dollars a month. And the insurers don’t blink at that.”

Jones said the issue is a problem due to the number of patients who have fibromyalgia, some 15 million in the U.S. “So when they say you can have drug x or drug y, they’re opening it up to a lot of people,” she said. “I think it’s a numbers issue.”

Jones maintains it’s a mistake to automatically rule out the generic drugs as options, simply because they are older. But while they are effective, they have major drawbacks, she said.

Some suffer what doctors call dose escalation, the need to constantly increase the dosage the longer a patient takes the drug.

Others affect multiple receptors in the body, creating side effects such as dry mouth, dry eyes or constipation.

Choosing the right drug for patients, however, is difficult because doctors don’t have good ways of differentiating between different fibromyalgia patients.

With breast cancer, Jones explained, doctors can test a biopsy sample of the cancer to determine which treatment will be most effective, in what dose and for how long. For fibromyalgia patients, none of that kind of subtyping exists.

“That’s sort of the Holy Grail of fibromyalgia,” Jones said. “We’re not there yet. It’s somewhat trial and error, and it’s somewhat ‘Which symptoms are driving the problem?’ ” Jones has her patients choose from a list of 37 common symptoms and then asks them to identify the three symptoms that have the biggest impact on their quality of life. Those symptoms can then help her guide her choice of generic or brand-name drug. For example, if patients also have symptoms of depression, doctors can prescribe Cymbalta, which is also an antidepressant.

While Jones isn’t opposed to using the older generics, she doesn’t particularly like the step therapy approach because it can create additional hurdles for patient and doctor.

“By the time they get to the rheumatologist, they’ve been dealing with this for six to 10 years, they’ve tried everything out there,” she said.

“It’s just not a good use of our time to continue to go back and dig up documentation about where they failed.”

Limited gains Alison Suran, a physical therapist with Healing Bridge Physical Therapy in Bend, sees many fibromyalgia patients struggling with their condition. And the additional burden of trying to get insurance approval for their medications just adds to their stress, she said.

“They have often already gone

through a lot of medication trials to try to come up with something that works. And when they do find something that is helpful, they want to stick with it.” Suran said.

“So when an insurance company decides they won’t cover that prescription until they’ve documented trying other things, it can be a big setback both physically and emotionally.”

Patients with chronic pain have incredibly sensitive systems, and even small changes can wreak havoc on their ability to control their pain.

“These folks are already struggling more than most of us can imagine with daily pain,” Suran said, “Having to deal with the unpredictable (nature) and inconsistencies of insurance coverage adds to their stress, which can add to their pain experience.”

Several analyses suggest that using prior authorization might not save that much money in the long run. A recent article in the American Journal of Managed Care calculated that after accounting for the price of alternative drugs, the costs of dealing with prior authorization requests, and the percentage of patients who will fail on generics and end up on brand-name drugs anyway, prior authorizations for Lyrica provide only minimal savings for insurers. The analysis, however, was funded by Pfizer, the company that makes Lyrica.

In other states, fibromyalgia patients have started grassroots campaigns to outlaw the practice of mandating failure on one drug to get access to another. California lawmakers passed a law earlier this year limiting health plans’ ability to create step therapy requirements. The Missouri Legislature also took up the issue after a lawmaker’s mother faced a seven-step approval process to get a brand-name fibromyalgia drug.

Dr. Dan Fohrman, a Bend rheumatologist, has been involved in the fight to remove preconditions for brand-name fibromyalgia drugs in Oregon. But he sees the issue as much broader than simply an issue over access to drugs for a single group of patients.

“Fibromyalgia is an unfortunate poster child for the balance of what happens with insurance companies and how out of control they are,” he said. “Nobody is willing to regulate them, they do whatever they want, and they intercede in physician-patient relationships.”

He’s seen insurance companies flip their positions on covering rheumatoid arthritis drugs after prices dropped on one of them, and worries the fibromyalgia case might be repeated with new drugs for lupus now working their way through the approval process.

“It’s their way of dealing with people and problems in medicine,” Fohrman said. “They use data to manipulate things for their own economic benefit.”

N Sorry, but there is no magic food for sleeping

VITAMINS TAKE YOUR VITAMINS: A regular look at the sources and benefits of vitamins and minerals.

Lu tein and zeaxanthin

By Jen n ifer LaRu e Hu get Special to The Washington Post

A number of my apparently sleep-deprived friends and colleagues, upon learning I planned to write about foods that might help people sleep better, have told me they’re eager to see what I come up with.

I so hate to disappoint them.

But it turns out science has yet to find a magical food that can send us right to slumberland.

“The bad news for people trying to talk about food and sleep is that … generally it’s hard to find foods that help with sleep,” says Michael Grandner, a sleep researcher at the University of Pennsylvania’s Center for Sleep and Respiratory Neurobiology.

“The easier question,” Grandner says, “is what are the things to avoid?”

Though you might expect caffeine to top that list, Grandner’s most recent research, published February in the journal Sleep Medicine, found otherwise. Tracking the diets and sleep habits of 459 women enrolled in the federal government’s 15-year Women’s Health Initiative, he found that fat was the main nutrient (out of dozens tracked) associated with getting less sleep. “The more fat you ate, the less you slept,” he says.

Women who ate the most fat slept for shorter times and took more naps, a sign that they didn’t get enough restful sleep at night.

(He believes his findings apply to the broader population, not just older women.)

If eating fat keeps you from sleeping, so does being fat. “People who are obese sleep less and report that the sleep they get is not as good,” Grandner wrote in an e-mail. “Some of this may be due to high rates of undiagnosed sleep apnea in these people, but it seems that obesity itself is related to less sleep. This may have to do with the fact that the hormones that control our feelings of hunger and being full get disrupted when sleep is disrupted.”

Of course, caffeine is among the substances (along with spicy foods) we should avoid late in the day if we want to sleep well. “Caffeine can still have an effect on sleep 12 hours later,” Grandner said in a phone interview, “enough that it’s keeping alertness levels so high that we’re unable to shut it off.”

Also on the don’t-drink list: alcohol. Although a nightcap might help you fall asleep, Christine Gerbstadt, a medical doctor, registered dietitian and spokeswoman for the American Dietary Association, says: “Alcohol does disrupt the sleep cycle. It delays the onset of and shortens REM sleep, which is the restful sleep” you need every night.

Both red and white wine contain melatonin, Gerbstadt says, but that hormone’s sleep-inducing properties are offset by the alcohol’s interference with REM sleep.

So what about downing a glass of warm milk or munching on a tryptophan-filled turkey leg to help induce Z’s? Gerbstadt says some foods could theoretically work by mimicking powerful and potentially dangerous drugs such as benzodiazepine that boost the action of the brain chemical gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in the central nervous system.

GABA, explains Grandner, is “the universal volume-turnerdowner.” The substance enhances a person’s ability to fall asleep by reducing anxiety and other busybrain conditions.

As it happens, milk contains a benzodiazepine-like substance, which could account for its legendary soporific effect. But, Grandner told me, “I haven’t found much (in the way of) controlled studies that found foods that had enough GABA to influence sleep.”

As for tryptophan, a substance that promotes sleep, Gerbstadt and Grandner say turkey doesn’t contain enough to knock you out.

I have to admit I feel a bit disillusioned by all these busted myths.

But maybe we shouldn’t count on food to solve our problems for us, anyway. Sleep on that.

Poultry, beef and leafy vegetables such as lettuce are responsible for a large number of foodborne illness outbreaks, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Illness Continued from F1 “They may be made in large batches so even a small amount of contamination can affect many customers,” said Magdalena Kendall, a researcher on the study, according to a press release from the CDC. Separately, last week’s report found that in 2007 there were about 1,100 food-borne illness outbreaks that sickened about 21,000 people and killed 18. In more than half of the cases, investigators were unable to identify the food causing the outbreak. When they could, they found that several foods were responsible for a large number of outbreaks.

Poultry, beef and leafy vegetables were each responsible for sickening between 590 and 690 people in 2007.

In many cases, the report found, a single ingredient in food could not be blamed. For example, the report cited an outbreak that sickened about 400 people caused by frozen pot pies.

The CDC report found the most common contamination in food was norovirus, an extremely contagious virus famous for sickening cruise ship passengers. In these cases, the contamination usually occurs when people preparing the food do not wash their hands after using the bathroom.

“The importance of hand washing and healthy food workers really cannot be overstated,” said Eric Mone, environmental health supervisor for Deschutes County Environmental Health Division.

Mone said that in the past few years, there has not been an outbreak of food-borne illness traced to any restaurant in Des-

“You can have very tiny amounts of bacteria in a food, not enough to cause illness, but if it’s left at room temperature that allows the bacteria to multiply. It can happen quickly, in just a matter of hours.”

— Karen Yeargain, Crook County communicable disease coordinator chutes County. There have been several outbreaks traced to other places, he said, including nursing homes and elder care facilities.

A day care was the source of a recent outbreak about six months ago, Mone said.

In Crook County, Karen Yeargain, the communicable disease coordinator for the county’s health department, said they will see one or two outbreaks of foodborne illness each year.

The most recent, she said, happened just over a year ago when an ill food handler prepared foods. The outbreak, which she said occurred in an “institutional setting,” sickened about 45 people.

Bob Wilson, the environmental health specialist in Jefferson County, said there had been no food-borne disease outbreaks in the two years that he had been on the job.

None of the Central Oregon experts had traced any food-borne illness to salsa or guacamole.

County health departments investigate any report of a potential food-borne disease, said Mone. But, he said, when people

feel sick, they are often incorrect about why they are sick. “People think it must have been the last thing (they) ate and usually that’s not the case.”

Mone said that the most common incubation period for germs is about a day. Viruses and bacteria need time to get into your body and replicate, he said.

Sometimes gastrointestinal symptoms usually associated with food-borne illness are not caused by something you ate, Mone said. Norovirus, for example, can be ingested in food but can also spread through the air or when people touch contaminated surfaces, such as doorknobs.

Food can become contaminated when it is not cooked properly, said Yeargain, or when it is not cooled properly. “You can have very tiny amounts of bacteria in a food, not enough to cause illness, but if it’s left at room temperature that allows the bacteria to multiply,” she said. “It can happen quickly, in just a matter of hours.”

For those eating food prepared by another, say in a restaurant, at school or in a nursing home, it can be hard to know exactly how food was prepared. Yeargain said that you should ensure that your food is the correct temperature — the hot food should be hot and the cold food cold — and look for red flags, such as if you see an employee leaving a bathroom without washing his or her hands.

Restaurants are inspected regularly and, though many are found to have some violations, “by and large our restaurants do a good job of keeping everyone healthy and safe,” said Mone.

L u tein and zeaxanthin are part of the carotenoid family. Although they are different compounds, both are in the xanthophylls category of carotenoids, and some methods of measuring nutrients do not separate the two, so they are often reported in a single combined amount.

Lutein and zeaxanthin are found mainly in dark green leafy vegetables, including spinach, Brussels sprouts or broccoli. Studies suggest that consuming foods high in those nutrients may help protect the eye against age-related macular degeneration and cataracts. Studies involving supplements, however, have shown limited success. The compounds absorb blue light, which researchers believe may help protect the sensitive tissues in the eye from light-induced cell damage.

Carotenoids are best absorbed with fat in a meal, 3 to 5 grams of fat appear to be sufficient. Chopping, pureeing or cooking vegetables in oil helps to increase the bioavailability of lutein and zeaxanthin.

There is currently no recommended daily allowance for lutein or zeaxanthin, but preventive effects have been seen at intakes of higher than 6 mg per day. No known toxicities have been reported.

A cup of cooked Brussels sprouts has about 2 mg of lutein and zeaxanthin. Studies suggest that about 6 mg per day of the two vitamins may help prevent age-related vision problems.
