BEND CITY COUNCIL

How will candidates

get your vote?

Suit among qualms cited over mental health homes Bend police say 911 calls reflect caution, not pattern of crime

By Hillary Borrud The Bulletin

Mark Moseley

Ron Boozell

Position 5 “I want to make sure that we get back to basic budgeting so that we have police, fire and infrastructure as a main focus.

We should be looking at more basic budgeting and cover those needed priorities as a first step and make secondary expenditures a lesser priority.”

Position 5 “As far as why somebody should vote for me, I’m not a lawyer, I’m not a businessman, and I offer a more unique perspective that is one of an actual Bend resident. I’m setting out to do nothing less than change our culture. ... I’m dreaming of a sustainable lifestyle.”

Chuck Arnold

Jodie Barram Position 6, unopposed “I’m grateful I don’t have an opponent this year. I think I’ve been doing good work on the City Council, and I think that shows.

We have a lot going on right now, and this will allow me to focus on that work.”

Mark Capell Position 5, incumbent “I’ve been studying the issues for a number of years now, so I would come back to the council with a lot of on-the-ground running rather than the year or two it takes to get up to speed.”

Scott Ramsay Position 7 “Until there is a platform — even it it’s smaller than it is today — for a sustainable economic job base, it’s going to continue to be a roller-coaster ride (in Bend).”

— From an April interview

Position 7 “We have to really work on being creative in the way we create jobs here and really create a city that welcomes business.

It’s about bringing people here to find the place, and it’s about creating more capacity for what we have here.”

number of issues facing Bend in the coming years, and most agree those revolve around economic development, job creation, improving infrastructure and making sure there is enough money in the budget to fund public safety.

Chuck Arnold, who is running against Scott Ramsay for Teater’s seat, said Wednesday that Bend needs to capitalize on its tour-

ism market to attract more companies to the area. And when a business makes that transition to Bend, Arnold, who is the executive director of the Downtown Bend Business Association and a member of Visit Bend, said the city needs to make it easy to get the appropriate permits.

“We have to really work on being creative in the way we create jobs here and really create a city that welcomes business,” Arnold said. “It’s about bringing people here to find the place, and it’s about creating more capacity for what we have here.”

Is there a strong liberal argument to be made for attacking the federal debt?

The question is a critical one for Democrats, because the party is drawing ever closer to an internecine, once-in-a-generation war over whether to seriously scale back the federal budget.

One of the chief concerns of neighbors near two planned mental health residential treatment homes in Bend is safety. The three existing mental health treatment homes in Bend, though not the same type as the new homes, have generated many calls to 911, according to records obtained by The Bulletin, but no crimes in the five years of records reviewed.

Yet the company scheduled to open two more treatment homes in Bend next month, Telecare, had to close a Roseberg facility over the summer because it could not recruit enough staff, and it faces a wrongful death lawsuit in California.

On Tuesday, state and county officials said they plan to move ahead with the two new treatment homes at 1646 N.E. Edgecliff Circle and 1058 N.E. 12th St. in Bend.

The residents will probably include people from the state hospital, county mental health clients and people with ties to Central Oregon who currently live in similar residential treatment homes around the state, said Scott Johnson, director of the Deschutes County Health Services Department, on Tuesday.

A new life in U.S. no longer means a new name Editor’s Note: Sam Roberts’ grandfather arrived in the United States as Samuel Rabinowitz. His family first changed the name to Rubin, then to Roberts.

By Sam Roberts New York Times News Service

For many 19th- and 20th-century immigrants or their children, it was a rite of passage: Arriving in America, they adopted a new identity.

Charles Steinweg, the German-born piano maker, changed his name to Steinway (in part because English instruments were deemed to be superior). Tom Lee, a Tong leader who would become the unofficial mayor of Chinatown in Manhattan, was originally Wong Ah Ling. Anne Bancroft, who was born in the Bronx, was Anna Maria Louisa Italiano.

The rationale was straightforward: Adopting names that sounded more American might help immigrants speed assimilation, avoid detection, deter discrimination or just be better for the businesses they hoped to start in their new homeland.

A dream town waits for a buyer in Nevada desert

By Ashley Powers Los Angeles Times

CAL-NEV-ARI, Nev. — Slim and Nancy Kidwell dreamed up a town on a barren patch of federal dirt.

It was the 1960s, and the two California pilots had long talked of running their own airport. One day, Slim was flying over scrub brush about 70 miles south of Las Vegas and spotted something peculiar: the faint outlines of a landing strip.

It was a remnant of a shuttered military training base, and Slim grew determined to own it.

The Kidwells could acquire the land free under a federal law, but had to prove they could wring sufficient water from the desert and raise 20 acres of something.

An agronomist suggested long-rooted winter barley.

When Lena Barsky picked up her first Latin text in 2004, she couldn’t have known that memorizing the phrase “canes sunt in via” would help her win a place at Brown University six years later.

The book featured a family and its dog in ancient Pompeii, and led Barsky to “The Aeneid,” the epic poem composed in Latin more than 2,000 years ago. Her “carpe diem” passion drove her to teach fourth- and fifth-graders at Latin summer camp. As Barsky began to explore colleges, the language gave her “occasio” to contact faculty members.

Students nationwide are finding that excelling in high school Latin can propel them to the most selective colleges, including Harvard University, whose undergraduate admission rate was 6.9 percent this year. Because so few students these days master Latin, it can help an applicant.

“We certainly do take notice,” said William Fitzsimmons, Harvard’s dean of undergraduate admissions and financial aid. “It can end up tipping the student into the class.”

While half of public high school students a century ago took Latin, that portion fell to about 1 percent in 1974 and was even lower at last measure two years ago, according to records maintained by the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages.

A Latin scholar would have excited an admissions officer 38 years ago when Fitzsimmons began his career, and “such a student today would be even a greater rarity, standing out even more,” he said.

Harvard, whose motto is “Veritas”, received more than more than 30,000 applicants this year and took 2,110, Fitzsimmons said.

Of 4,873 Harvard sophomores, juniors and seniors this past school year, fewer than 1 percent concentrated their course load in classics. That contrasted with the 14 percent who went for economics, the leading choice.

The edifice complex Business schools build to compete for enrollment

By Oliver Staley Bloomberg News

Yale University’s School of Management, which aspires to be among the world’s best business schools, crams its students and faculty into 19th-century homes and former astronomy buildings linked by a rabbit warren of basements.

That’s a far cry from Harvard Business School’s 33-building riverfront campus, which boasts a chapel, health club and its own art collection.

To catch up, Yale is planning a glittering, $180 million structure designed by Lord Norman Foster, who built London’s “Gherkin” tower. The new building, scheduled to open in 2013, will help the school keep pace with its rivals, Dean Sharon Oster said.

“You can’t be in a dump if everyone else is in a spectacular building,” Oster said.

Elite business schools are locked in an arms race of building bigger and more elaborate business campuses to recruit the best students and faculty and climb magazine rankings, Yale finance professor Matthew Spiegel said.

New buildings mean more office space for faculty, more classrooms for profitable executive education programs, and room for more students, who pay up to $80,000 a year to attend.

Business schools are splurging on high-profile architects to create imposing glass-and-steel structures, with everything from meeting rooms for student teams to cafeterias with organic cuisine and health clubs.

“The better the experience people have, the better they feel about the place, the more likely it will be that they would support it at some point,” said Robert Dolan, dean of the University of Michigan’s Ross School of Business, in Ann Arbor, which opened a 270,000-square-foot, $145 million building in 2009.

Since the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania opened its 324,000-square-foot, $140 million Jon M. Huntsman Hall in 2002, rival business schools have scrambled to keep up.

Studying humanities for love, not money

By Patricia Cohen New York Times News Service

When the renowned educators Mortimer Adler and Robert Maynard Hutchins first decided to expand their Great Books course beyond the University of Chicago’s walls, they recruited some of Chicago’s most prominent businessmen. In what was called the Fat Men’s Great Books Course, the executives and their wives started meeting every other Friday evening in the fall of 1943 to discuss Plato, Shakespeare and Goethe.

The course eventually evolved into the Basic Program in Liberal Education and is now run out of the Graham School of General Studies, the university’s continuing education arm. And despite the recent recession, enrollment has increased in recent years, said Daniel Shannon, dean of the school.

Other continuing education programs around the nation have noticed a strong interest in their arts and humanities courses.

This growth comes amid a vigorous debate in the broader world of education about whether courses and material should be tied more tightly to the job market. Training more engineers and technicians is a constant refrain.

Some educators worry that the single-minded focus on economic benefits comes at the expense of the arts and humanities, however.

The number of undergraduates who major in these areas tends to dip during recessions, as practical concerns about postgraduation employment loom larger.

A result has been that the hu-

manities, once the centerpiece of the college experience, have been pushed to justify their existence.

Robust enrollments aside, the same conversation about the role of the arts and humanities preoccupies the world of continuing education.

2 types of students Generalizations about continuing education can be tricky, however. Continuing education is a multiheaded beast that embraces retirees and anxious laid-off workers hoping to get a start on a new career, those seeking credit or certification, and those indifferent to further credentials.

The School of Continuing Education at the University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, attracts a lot of older retirees, said Kim Beck, the director of arts, humanities and sciences. “We haven’t seen a real downturn in older adults’ participation,” he said, but the recession did dampen interest in business training.

Shannon said he believed a deep appreciation of the humanities was connected to age.

“The humanities become more important as you grow older,” he said. “Some of them, I think, come back because they yearn to capture what they didn’t have in their undergraduate experience, particularly those who went through professional programs like business or nursing.” Others return, he added, because they suddenly realize “that at 18, they didn’t have the capacity to read critically Socrates, Thucydides and Nietzsche.”

The main mezzanine of the new home of MIT Sloan School of Business Management in Cambridge, Mass., is designed to be lit almost exclusively by daylight through south-facing windows.

The University of Chicago opened its $125 million Harper Center in 2004, while Michigan’s building debuted last year. Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s Sloan School of Business, in Cambridge, Mass., will open new facilities this year, and Stanford Graduate School of Business, near Palo Alto, Calif., will follow in 2011.

Harvard’s buildings, the first of which were built in 1927, sit on a 40-acre bend in the Charles River across from the rest of the university. More recent additions include a glass-and-concrete chapel with a koi pond, housing for 400 visiting executives, a health club with three basketball courts and a student union designed by Robert A.M. Stern.

‘More positive place’ The University of Chicago’s new business school building was designed by Rafael Vinoly, who was inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright’s 1910 Robie House across the street. It is oriented around a six-story, glass-and-steel atrium that acts as the school’s “living room.”

The social space has helped change the view that the business school is a haven for math geeks and social misfits, said Stacey Kole, a deputy dean.

“We’re working hard to break

that perception,” Kole said.

“When you come to campus, you see more activity. It’s a much more positive place to be.”

Applications jumped 30 percent the first year Chicago used the new building in its marketing, although improved rankings helped drive the increase as well, she said.

Student expectations The high cost of attendance contributes to students’ rising expectations — and the growing size and complexity of the new facilities, said Jonathan Levav, an associate professor at Columbia. Two years at Columbia Business School costs an estimated $168,307 for tuition, room and board, and other expenses.

While universities nationwide have cut back on construction because of falling endowments, business schools are immune from the reductions because of their ability to raise money, said Ronald Ehrenberg, an economics professor at Cornell University, in Ithaca, N.Y., who studies higher education.

“Graduates of business and law schools are often the wealthiest alumni,” Ehrenberg said. “It is easy to raise the funds to build buildings from donors to those schools.”

New buildings can also pro-

vide more room for executive education, the profitable, nondegree programs for business employees paid for by their corporations.

MIT Sloan’s new building has a wing dedicated to executive education, with more elaborate lighting and furniture than the rest of the school, and its own dining room. Currently, many Sloan executive education classes are held off campus.

“It is on campus, it is clearly part of the Sloan school complex, and it makes it easier to say ‘yes,’ ” said Rochelle Weichman, the associate dean for executive education.

MIT’s building consolidates offices for 107 professors who were spread across five structures, and the four floors of offices are designed to encourage interaction between professors of different departments to help spur innovative thinking, said Lucinda Hill, director of capital projects at Sloan.

Yale has raised about half of the $180 million needed for its building, and will seek another $25 million from donors and borrow the remainder, Oster said in an interview conducted in a full-scale mockup of Yale’s future classrooms, erected in a warehouse off-campus. Naming rights for the building will cost a benefactor $100 million, she said.

Drug cartel suspected in massacre 72 migrants killed 100 miles from U.S. border

By Mark Stevenson and E. Eduardo Castillo The Associated Press

MEXICO CITY — A wounded migrant stumbled into a military checkpoint and led marines to a gruesome scene, what may be the biggest massacre so far in Mexico’s bloody drug war: a

room strewn with the bodies of 72 fellow travelers, some piled on top of each other, just 100 miles from their goal, the U.S. border.

The 58 men and 14 women were killed by the Zetas gang, the migrant told investigators Wednesday. The gang, started by former Mexican army special

forces soldiers, is known to extort money from migrants who pass through its territory.

If authorities corroborate the story, it would be the most horrifying example yet of the plight of migrants trying to cross a country where drug cartels are increasingly scouting shelters and highways, hoping to extort cash or even recruit immigrants.

“It’s absolutely terrible and it

demands the condemnation of all of our society,” said a government security spokesman.

The Ecuadorean migrant staggered to the checkpoint on Tuesday, with a bullet wound in his neck. He told the marines he had just escaped from gunmen at a ranch in San Fernando, a town in the northern state of Tamaulipas about 100 miles from Brownsville, Texas.

In the final days before Alaska’s Republican Senate primary, longtime Republicans were bombarded with pieces of direct mail and automated phone calls urging them to oust yet another member of their party’s jilted establishment, Sen. Lisa Murkowski.

“I was ready to tear the phone out of the wall,” said Dennis Fradley, a former chief of staff to Murkowski’s father, Frank Murkowski, who held the same Senate seat for 22 years before he appointed his daughter to succeed him.

Last-minute surge

By Sharon LaFraniere

On Wednesday, Murkowski’s Senate career was hanging by a thread, thanks to a last-minute push by her upstart opponent, Joe Miller, a former Fairbanks judge and a tea party favorite whose candidacy had been all but written off a few weeks ago by political experts.

Miller benefited from tea party activists, Sarah Palin, Mike Huckabee and several other prominent conservatives who cast Murkowski as a Democratic sympathizer.

Unlike Sen. John McCain, RAriz., who beat back attacks from his opponent, J.D. Hayworth, Murkowski chose to ignore her conservative opponent — until it was too late. Hayworth tried to capitalize on tea party sentiment, but many of the groups were not enthusiastic about him.

U.S. diverts aid to recovery

By Karin Brulliard

Results in September?

Miller holds a narrow lead over Murkowski of about 1,500 votes.

At least 7,600 absentee ballots remain to be counted as well as an uncertain number of questioned or provisional ballots. The final result may not be known until early September.

Several factors appeared to play crucial roles in Miller’s success. An anti-abortion measure on the primary ballot drew more votes than any other race. The measure’s presence probably increased the turnout of conservative voters who could be expected to lean toward Miller since Murkowski supports abortion rights, a position that has long cost her support among the state’s right wing.

The Washington Post

SUKKUR, Pakistan — The United States is diverting some of its five-year, multibillion-dollar aid package for Pakistan to flood recovery and will reevaluate plans for the remainder because the disaster has dramatically altered the country’s needs, the top U.S. aid official said Wednesday.

The floods, triggered by the start of monsoon rains a month ago, have submerged one-fifth of Pakistan, washed away entire settlements and sparked fears of unrest. More than a million homes have been destroyed. In places where schools or hospitals previously needed improvements, they will now have to be built from scratch.

“I fully envision some of the

“I fully envision some of the priorities will have to shift, and shift so that there’s more of a recovery and reconstruction focus,” — Rajiv Shah, chief of the U.S. Agency for International Development priorities will have to shift, and shift so that there’s more of a recovery and reconstruction focus,” Rajiv Shah, chief of the U.S. Agency for International Development, told reporters here.

Shah was in Pakistan to see the destruction caused by the floods, which was apparent as

his plane descended into this hardscrabble city in the southern province of Sindh, one of the hardest-hit areas.

Congress passed a five-year, $7.5 billion aid package for Pakistan last year — long before the flooding — and most of it was slated for development. Little has been doled out, but USAID officials have spent months planning where it would go, including to several “signature” projects related to water and energy.

On Wednesday, Shah said that “every part of the portfolio” would have to be reexamined, although even that could not begin until the floodwaters recede and needs could be assessed.

For now, he said, $50 million of the package will be redirected to flood recovery.

BEIJING — China’s largest passenger airline deemed nighttime landings at a new airport in northeastern China unsafe a year before a Henan Airlines jet crashed there Tuesday night, killing 42 passengers and injuring 54 others.

China Southern Airlines, the country’s largest passenger carrier, concluded that the Lindu airport, outside Yichun, a city of one million people in Heilongjiang Province, was “in principle not suitable for night flights,” according to a safety notice posted on a Chinese news organization’s website. Daytime landings in rainy conditions were also ruled out for the airline, the notice said.

The small airport, nestled in a thickly forested valley, opened last year, according to Chinese news media.

The crash Tuesday at the Lindu airport was China’s first major passenger airline disaster since a China Eastern Airlines plane crashed into a lake in northern China in 2004, killing 55 people. China has recently made a concerted effort to tighten safety rules and improve training.

It has also been rapidly opening new airports to help spur economic development and satisfy surging demand.

The number of airline passengers in China more than tripled between 2000 and 2009, government statistics show.

N B Eggs from Iowa sites being treated for use

family and Orlando-based SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment.

Millions of eggs from the Iowa farms at the heart of a massive salmonella recall are not destined for the garbage but for a table near you.

The recalled eggs that were already shipped to grocery stores and restaurants are being dumped by the truckload. But the eggs still being laid by potentially infected chickens will be pasteurized to kill any bacteria. Then they can be sold as liquid eggs or put in other products such as mayonnaise or ice cream.

Officials from the two farms that have recalled more than a half-billion eggs said Wednesday there’s no reason not to use the eggs while federal officials investigate the outbreak.

Jimmy Carter arrives in N. Korea to free American New York Times News Service SEOUL, South Korea — Former President Jimmy Carter arrived in North Korea on Wednesday to seek the release of an American held by the North, its state-run media reported.

Analysts in Seoul said Carter, who helped defuse a Korean nuclear crisis more than 16 years ago, could also try to help end the two countries’ impasse.

The American Carter is seeking to free is Aijalon Mahli Gomes, a 30-year-old Christian from Boston who was arrested in January for crossing into North Korea illegally in support of another detained American Christian and sentenced in April to eight years of hard labor and fined $700,000.

Arnold’s opponent, Ramsay, was not available for comment Wednesday. When Ramsay announced his candidacy in April, he said he ran for office to change the culture on the City Council to one that is pro-growth and probusiness. He received support from Teater at that time.

Ramsay owns Sun Mountain Fun Center on Bend’s north side and Casarama, a furniture store on Division Street. He said when he first opened the businesses he had the impression that Bend was much more affluent than he found it to be and had trouble keeping his companies afloat.

Like Arnold, he thinks the city needs to be more lenient with businesses when it comes to allowing them to succeed. He also said in April that the city needs to have a more diversified economy that isn’t subject to the peaks and valleys that showed during the city’s boom times and subsequent recession era.

‘Unique petri dish’ “Bend is kind of a unique petri dish. It’s always had the beautiful surroundings that people have come to take advantage of, but it has gone on such a roller-coaster ride from the 70s until today, having huge growth and success and an absolutely devastated economy, and then huge growth and success and then another devastated economy,” Ramsay said in April. “And until there is a platform — even if it’s smaller than it is today — for a sustainable economic job base, it’s going to continue to be a roller-coaster ride.”

The most crowded race is for first-term Councilor Mark Capell’s seat. He faces challenges from Mark Moseley, a retired plant manager for a truck manufacturer, and Ron Boozell, a selfproclaimed libertarian.

Capell said he hopes to capitalize on his accomplishments in his first four years in office. One of those, he said, was proposing the possible money-saving merger between the city’s Bend Area Transit and the Central Oregon Intergovernmental Council’s Cascade East Transit. The other was his push with other colleagues to “revamp” City Hall’s management by replacing key officials, like the city manager.

With his experience on the council, he said it would be easier for him to push for further change at the city level than either of his challengers.

“I’ve been studying the issues for a number of years now,” Capell said, “so I would come back to the council with a lot of on-theground running rather than the year or two it takes to get up to speed.”

As the owner of a local small business, Capell said wants to continue to create programs that help his peers flourish, similar to one he recently supported that aims to reduce the amount of fees a company would pay to move to a new location within Bend. He also promised to do his best to reduce the impact on water ratepayers and make sure there are cost savings on the $73 million proposed water project that currently has a 35 percent cushion on its price.

“I’d like to see that project come in at $40 million instead of $73 million, and I’m serious about it,” Capell said. “We have to find the best rates and the best bids to get

“frustration with the U.S. government’s failure to free him.”

The visit by Carter, an evangelical Christian, is the second to North Korea by a former U.S. president in a year on what the United States described as a private humanitarian missions.

Last August, Bill Clinton flew there and met with the reclusive North Korean leader, Kim Jong Il, to secure the release of two American journalists who had been held for five months for illegal entry.

The Obama administration kept its distance, emphasizing that Carter is not an envoy.

“I’ll just say that President Carter is on a private humanitarian mission and I’m not going to comment more beyond that,” said Mark Toner, a State Department spokesman.

it done.”

Moseley is running much of his campaign on cost savings, and said he wants to bring his corporate background to reducing the city’s general fund budget deficit that was projected to be $17 million over six years. He worked for truck manufacturer Freightliner before retiring, and said as a plant manager he had to do efficiencies audits to make sure there wasn’t any wasteful spending. Moseley wants to apply this practice to Bend’s budget, and look for money that would offset the costs of police, fire and street maintenance.

“I want to make sure that we get back to basic budgeting so that we have police, fire and infrastructure as a main focus,” Moseley said. “We should be looking at more basic budgeting and cover those needed priorities as a first step and make secondary expenditures a lesser priority.”

In terms of the city’s water project, Moseley thinks councilors need to make sure they’re asking the appropriate questions and that they ensure the public is informed.

“I think the councilors are obligated to collect as much information as they possibly can,” Moseley said. “I think with this kind of expenditure we probably should circulate (information) out into the neighborhood areas ... so the constituents of the city understand the decisions the council’s trying to make for them.”

The second challenger vying for Capell’s seat, Ron Boozell, who also goes by “Rondo,” is a little different from the others trying to take a place on Bend’s City Council. In many ways he considers himself the anti-candidate, and hopes he can ride that perception into office.

“As far as why somebody should vote for me, I’m not a lawyer, I’m not a businessman, and I offer a more unique perspective that is one of an actual Bend resident,” Boozell said. “I’m setting out to do nothing less than change our culture. ... I’m dreaming of a sustainable lifestyle.”

Boozell said he wants to focus on the mentality of Bend residents of buying local products, and try to shift policies toward that practice. As a self-proclaimed libertarian, Boozell — who does not have a job, but volunteers for the American Red Cross and a local radio station — said he is a “fiscal conservative and social liberal.”

‘Not government’s job to create jobs’ While he supports the success of local businesses, he does not think the city should interfere with their fate. He also said the city should not be in business as a developer or pander to the interests of developers.

“It is not government’s job to create jobs that taxpayers have to pay for,” Boozell said. “What we need to do is step back, get out of the way, facilitate when possible, and let businesses prosper.”

Councilor Jodie Barram will not face any challengers because no one filed paperwork by the Aug. 24 deadline to run against her. Barram said she will continue to campaign, though it will likely be more relaxing.

“I’m grateful I don’t have an opponent this year. I think I’ve been doing good work on the City Council, and I think that shows,” said Barram, who lost her 2008 bid for election but was appointed to the council shortly after then-councilor Bill Friedman died. “We have a lot going on right now, and this will allow me to focus on that work.”

Care homes Continued from A1 Three licensed mental health treatment facilities already operate in Deschutes County, and they have been open for between six and 12 years, according to the county. Two adult foster care homes serve people with developmental disabilities. The third treatment home has residents with mental illnesses who were convicted of crimes, more serious cases than the residents who will probably live at the new homes.

Since 2006, there were 21 calls to one adult foster home and 42 calls to the second adult foster home, according to 911 records.

In the same period, there were 14 calls to a facility that was an adult foster home until 2008, when it changed to a facility for people found guilty except for insanity by the courts. These people have been sentenced to be wards of the state Psychiatric Security Review Board.

Call types for the three existing homes ranged from a fire alarm test to suicide attempts, and the only two calls coded as “harassment” and “assault” at one of the foster homes did not result in criminal charges, or even police reports, said Capt.

Jim Porter of the Bend Police Department. The call type does not mean that a suicide attempt or harassment or assault occurred.

Porter said at a meeting Tuesday night that officers who respond to the treatment facilities often face a lower threat than at some of the other homes to

Blumenauer Continued from A1 This month, more than 70 organizations, including the AFLCIO and MoveOn.org, formed a group, Strengthen Social Security, to pre-emptively oppose the panel’s findings, starting with any reduction in Social Security benefits it might propose. And they are calling on Democrats in Congress to pledge the same.

Under that kind of pressure, you would think it might be hard for the White House and its allies to persuade liberal lawmakers to go along with budget-cutting proposals. But some progressives might be swayed by a different case, like the one I recently heard Earl Blumenauer make.

Hardly centrist Blumenauer, a seven-term congressman from Portland, Ore., is nobody’s idea of a centrist. Bowtied and erudite in the manner of a prep school headmaster, he is known mostly as a champion of bicycle paths and light rail. (He bikes his way around both Washington and Portland and formed the Bicycle Caucus in the House.)

The liberal League of Conservation Voters most recently gave him a perfect 100 rating, while the conservative National Taxpayers Union gave him an “F.” But Blumenauer sides with the White House on the notion that Democrats need to do something now about the federal debt, starting with cuts in wasteful federal spending (like some farm subsidies and military outlays) and with changes to cherished entitlement programs.

Blumenauer doesn’t argue that government does too much, or that programs like Social Security and Medicare aren’t vital.

Rather, in two recent conversations about the nation’s finances, Blumenauer argued that if

which they are called. Staff at the existing homes are “very proactive,” and typically call for assistance before serious problems arise, Porter said.

Several neighbors who live next door or on the same block as the home for people found guilty except for insanity said Wednesday that they have not encountered problems with it.

Standing on her porch Wednesday morning, Christina Lyon, 22, said she sees the residents coming and going all the time, on bicycles or in cabs. The neighborhood is quiet, and the residents have not caused any problems, said Lyon, who lives two doors down from the treatment facility.

“I’m definitely not worried for my safety,” Lyon said.

Lyon and her roommate, Natalie Skeen, 22, said they did not know that people with mental illnesses were living in the home, or that they were people found guilty except for insanity.

“I think it’s a good thing that they’re rehabilitating them into society,” Skeen said.

Telecare’s record in Roseburg In June, Telecare closed a locked facility in Roseberg after the state imposed sanctions for undisclosed reasons, The NewsReview of Roseberg reported.

The treatment center was open for approximately two years, and most of its residents came from state psychiatric hospitals, The News-Review reported. But Oregon’s Addictions & Mental Health Division says there were

no sanctions.

The division does not have records of sanctions on any licensed Telecare facilities, division spokeswoman Andrea Cantu-Schomus wrote in an e-mail.

Kevin McChesney, regional director of operations for Telecare, said the Roseberg facility closed because Telecare could not recruit enough staff in the area with sufficient qualifications for skilled jobs at the facility. Telecare has used the closure as a learning experience, and has improved recruiting practices, McChesney said.

Len Ray, administrator of the Addictions & Mental Health Division, agreed Tuesday with McChesney’s description of why the treatment center closed.

“The staffing component was the driver for our concerns,” Ray said. Inadequate local mental health services were another reason for the closure, Ray added.

$5 million lawsuit Telecare has encountered issues in California, where the company faces a $5 million federal civil rights lawsuit filed by the parents of a 24-year-old mentally ill man killed by police. The lawsuit, which names Telecare as a co-defendent along with the city of Santa Rosa and Sonoma County, alleges that Jesse Hamilton had not taken his medication for several days while living at an unlicensed “room and board” home and receiving “occasional monitoring and care”

by Telecare staff, according to a court document.

“We do people no favors if we have systems that leak money and don’t have the credibility they need when they’re under attack. People will pay for all this if they’re convinced they’re getting their value.”

— Rep. Earl Blumenauer, D-Ore.

Democrats really want to protect a vast array of federal programs from repeated Republican onslaughts, then they need to bring the costs of the programs in line with reality.

Otherwise, he said, liberals only make it easier for conservative critics of social spending to undermine the entire premise of liberal government. And they make it that much harder to propose new and much-needed investments in, say, infrastructure and education.

“We do people no favors if we have systems that leak money and don’t have the credibility they need when they’re under attack,” Blumenauer said. “People will pay for all this if they’re convinced they’re getting their value. But our challenge on the federal level is to actually deliver, and we can’t just defend the indefensible.”

The liberal groups that are already speaking out against the debt panel’s unfinished work have chosen to start with Social Security because it is likely to be at the center of any budget compromise. “If there’s a place where it looks like Republicans and Democrats can reach agreement, we’re afraid it’s Social Security,” says Frank Clemente, the director of Strengthen Social Security.

The coalition bases its case on the idea that Social Security is actually in fine fiscal shape, since it has amassed a pile of Treasury Bills — often referred to as IOUs — in a dedicated trust fund. This is true enough, except

that the only way for the government to actually make good on these IOUs is to issue mountains of new debt or to take the money from elsewhere in the federal budget, or perhaps impose significant tax increases — none of which seem like especially practical options for the long term.

So this is sort of like saying that you’re rich because your friend has promised to give you 10 million bucks just as soon as he wins the lottery.

Understanding For his part, Blumenauer said he understood why his fellow liberals might take this position, and he thought their campaign might even prove useful in heading off more drastic proposals like privatizing Social Security, which he vehemently opposes (and which appears to be off the negotiating table, in any event).

But Blumenauer argues that the program can’t exist on makebelieve money, and he says Democrats should remain open to changes in the benefit structure, including what is known as “progressive price indexing.” What this means, essentially, is that more affluent Americans would have their benefits — at least when they first retire — pegged to the consumer price index, rather than to wages, which would have the effect of reducing payouts.

“There are enough people who practice trench politics,” Blumenauer said. “It has its place. But we are going to have to govern.”

Ross Peterson, vice president of development with Telecare, said Wednesday that he could not comment on the pending litigation.

Telecare, which is based in Alameda, Calif., currently operates three facilities licensed by the state of California, according to the state’s Department of Public Health. Quality of care appears to vary among the facilities. California rates Telecare’s Garfield Neurobehavioral Center “much above average,” while Morton Bakar Center is rated “below average.” The state has not taken any enforcement actions against the two homes, according to a Department of Public Health database.

The Garfield Neurobehavioral Center, a skilled nursing center for people with health issues ranging from cerebral tumors to senile and pre-senile dementias, has been open since 1986.

Morton Bakar Center, in operating since 2006, is also a skilled nursing facility and provides care for older adults with major mental illnesses. The third facility, La Casa Mental Health Center, opened in 1997 but rating and enforcement information was not available Wednesday from the Department of Public Health.

“I think we provide excellent services and if you would talk to our county and state customers, they would have very excellent things to say about us,” Peterson said.

Hillary Borrud can be reached at 541-617-7829 or at hborrud@bendbulletin.com.

Blumenauer may be out of step with his natural political constituencies, but his basic argument here places him squarely in a tradition of mainstream Democratic thinkers. As far back as 1976, in one of the more persuasive, if least remembered, speeches in the party’s modern history, Sen. Edmund Muskie of Maine made essentially the same case to the Democratic platform committee and voiced his support for a “sunset bill” that would have subjected most federal programs to periodic review.

Muskie argued that it was hard to persuade voters to accept new programs while they entertained profound doubts about the efficiency of existing ones. Noting that some Democrats seemed to regard budget reform as “a repudiation of the New Deal,” he asked his colleagues: “What’s so damn liberal about wasting money? And what do waste and inefficiency have to do with the New Deal?”

The party’s liberal activists rejected Muskie’s argument. They reacted with the same disdain 20 years later, when President Bill Clinton declared an end to the “era of big government.” They opposed the creation of Obama’s debt panel for the same reason.

But at a time when the nation faces its second straight budget deficit of more than $1 trillion under their watch, some Democrats in Congress may be more inclined to accept the proposition that budget reform is essential to the endurance of liberal government.

“We are headed for a very contentious, emotional and hard fought battle going forward,” Blumenauer said.

Afghanistan

New name

Continued from A1 Salehi’s relationship with the CIA underscores deep contradictions at the heart of the Obama administration’s policy in Afghanistan, with American officials simultaneously demanding that Karzai root out the corruption that pervades his government while sometimes subsidizing the very people suspected of perpetrating it.

Salehi was arrested in July and released after Karzai intervened. There has been no suggestion that Salehi’s ties to the CIA played a role in his release; rather, officials say, it is the fear that Salehi knows about corrupt dealings inside the Karzai administration.

Continued from A1 Today, most experts agree, that traditional immigrant gambit has all but disappeared.

“For the most part, nobody changes to American names any more at all,” said Cheryl David, former chairwoman of the New York chapter of the American Immigration Lawyers Association.

Precise comparative statistics are hard to come by, and experts say there was most likely no one precise moment when the practice fell off. It began to decline within the last few decades, they say, and the evidence of its rarity, if not formally quantified, can be found in almost any American courthouse.

The New York Times examined the more than 500 applications for name changes in June at the Civil Court in New York,

Corruption fight up for debate The ties underscore doubts about how seriously the Obama administration intends to fight corruption here. The anti-corruption drive, though strongly backed by the United States, is still vigorously debated inside the administration. Some argue it should be a centerpiece of American strategy, and others say that attacking corrupt officials who are crucial to the war effort could destabilize the Karzai government.

The Obama administration is also racing to show progress in Afghanistan by December, when the White House will evaluate its mission there. Some administration officials argue that any comprehensive campaign to fight corruption inside Afghanistan is overly ambitious, with less than a year to go before the American military is set to begin withdrawing troops.

“Fighting corruption is the very definition of mission creep,” one Obama administration official said.

Others in the administration view public corruption as the single greatest threat to the Afghan government and the American mission; it is the corrupt nature of the Karzai government, these officials say, that drives ordinary Afghans into the arms of the Taliban. Other prominent Afghans who American officials have said were on the CIA’s payroll include the president’s half-brother, Ahmed Wali Karzai, suspected by investigators of playing a role in Afghanistan’s booming opium trade. Earlier this year, American officials did not press Karzai to remove his brother from his post as the chairman of the Kandahar provincial council.

Karzai denies any monetary relationship with the CIA and any links to the drug trade.

Town Continued from A1 So like homesteaders of centuries past, the couple ventured into the middle of nowhere, bringing little more than their cat, their dog and their long-held hopes. Slim was 62, Nancy 28.

Theirs was a ramshackle freedom. They lived in a trailer off U.S. Highway 95 that initially lacked air conditioning and water, and guided their Piper Comanche aircraft onto the bumpy landing strip with only orange construction flashers for illumination.

In 1966, Slim and Nancy were awarded 640 acres. They named their tiny fiefdom after the nearby intersection of three states, posting a sign that radiated frontier optimism: “CalNev-Ari, Population: 4. Watch Us Grow.”

Soon the Kidwells built a mobile home park. Their casino — advertised as a “fly-in” gambling hall — opened in 1968 with a few table games. But their original partner in the venture soon moved: His wife found the

which has a greater foreignborn population than any other city in the United States. Only a half-dozen or so of those applications appeared to be obviously intended to Anglicize or abbreviate the surnames that immigrants or their families arrived with from Latin America or Asia.

Result of marriage The vast majority of people with clearly ethnic surnames who applied to change them did so as a result of marriage (belatedly adopting a spouse’s surname or creating a new hyphenated one) or childbirth (because they were legally identified when they were born only as a male or female child or were adopting a parent’s name).

isolation unbearable.

“A lot of our friends took one look and never came back,” Nancy said. “They thought we were out of our minds.” It’s little wonder that, for decades, she has clung to a fortune cookie prediction from 1967: “What’s done here is of permanent importance.”

By the 1970s, the Kidwells began selling one-acre parcels for $3,000. Today, the plots go for about $40,000. The unincorporated community’s 300 or so residents mostly live in mobile homes with neat yards, and many have small planes.

Their properties are adjacent to Kidwell Airport — Federal Aviation Administration code 1L4 — and its dusty mile-long runway.

Kenny Allen, 78, bought a home here two decades ago after making two emergency landings at Kidwell Airport.

“After the second time, I thought, ‘Maybe somebody’s trying to tell me something,’ ” he said.

He was playing keno at the market, which also sells food, cassette tapes, pet food and beer.

Wiretap led to arrest Salehi was arrested by the Afghan police after investigators say they wiretapped him soliciting a bribe — in the form of a car for his son — in exchange for impeding an American-backed investigation into a company suspected of shipping billions of dollars out of the country for Afghan officials, drug smugglers and insurgents.

Salehi was released seven hours later, after telephoning Karzai from his jail cell to demand help, officials said, and after Karzai forcefully intervened on his behalf.

The president sent aides to get him and has since threatened to limit the power of the anticorruption unit that carried out the arrest. Salehi could not be reached for comment Wednesday. A spokesman for Karzai did not respond to a list of questions sent to his office, including whether Karzai knew that Salehi was a CIA informant.

A spokesman for the CIA declined to comment on any relationship with Salehi.

“The CIA works hard to advance the full range of U.S. policy objectives in Afghanistan,” said Paul Gimigliano, a spokesman for the agency. “Reckless allegations from anonymous sources don’t change that reality in the slightest.”

An American official said the practice of paying government officials was sensible, even if they turn out to be corrupt or unsavory.

“If we decide as a country that we’ll never deal with anyone in Afghanistan who might down the road — and certainly not at our behest — put his hand in the till, we can all come home right now,” the American official said. “Reconciliation in Afghanistan means sitting down with people who have American blood on their hands. It’s a tough place, and you’re nuts if you think you’ll get the intelligence you need there from people like Mother Teresa or Mary Poppins.”

Iraq car bombings, other attacks kill 51 Al-Qaida, Baathists blamed for bloodshed

By Ned Parker and Riyadh Mohammed Los Angeles Times

Brennan Linsley / The Associated Press

U.S. Army Sgt. Derek Slade, of Albuquerque, N.M., of Tactical Command Post, HQ Company, 2-502 Infantry, 101st Airborne Division, takes cover behind a low mud wall during a joint patrol with the Afghan Army in Zhari district, Kandahar province, southern Afghanistan, on Wednesday. Soldiers in Zhari operate in a district which is the birthplace of the Taliban movement, and where many well-armed insurgents blend in with a support network that provides them with explosives and safe havens.

Police trainee kills Spanish soldiers

By Rod Nordland New York Times News Service

KABUL, Afghanistan — An argument at a police training camp Wednesday ended in gunfire when an Afghan trainee shot and killed two Spanish police officers and an interpreter before he was fatally shot himself, Afghan and NATO authorities said.

The killings set off an angry demonstration by several hundred villagers, who tried to storm the camp, the Spanish-run Pro-

vincial Reconstruction Team training center in Badghis province, provincial officials said.

It was the latest attack by Afghan security force members against their NATO allies. On July 13, an Afghan soldier killed three British soldiers and wounded six others during a joint patrol in Helmand province.

The Spanish interior minister, Alfredo Perez Rubalcaba, said Wednesday in a radio interview that the Afghan police officer shot

his instructors during a class at the Spanish-run training camp, killing two Guardia Civil officers and an Afghan interpreter who held Spanish citizenship. Spanish police officers then returned fire, killing the assailant, he said. The Guardia Civil are a paramilitary police force.

However, Sharafuddin Majidi, a spokesman for the governor of Badghis province, said the argument began when the Afghan police officer tried to gain en-

try to the base and was blocked

by Spanish sentries because he refused to turn in his weapon.

Instead, the officer opened fire, killing the two Spanish officers and the interpreter, Majidi said.

The Afghan officer was shot and killed by other Spanish officers at the scene, he said.

NATO’s international security force in Kabul said in a statement that two of its members and a civilian were killed along with the Afghan police officer.

BAGHDAD — Insurgents struck across Iraq on Wednesday, killing at least 51 people in bombing and shooting attacks.

The violence hit 11 towns and cities from north to south and appeared timed to undermine confidence in the Iraqi army and police as the U.S. military ends its formal combat mission in the country.

The attacks pointed to the enduring capabilities of militant groups when the U.S. military and Iraqi forces have depicted al-Qaida in Iraq and its brethren as no match for the Iraqi army.

The bloodshed came amid Iraqis’ frustration over the failure of political blocs to form a new government nearly six months after national elections. U.S. officials have insisted that Iraq is stable, even

if the country is locked in a political stalemate and fears are mounting among Iraqis that their nation’s stability is in fact eroding.

Iraq’s leaders, including Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, blamed al-Qaida in Iraq and the late dictator Saddam Hussein’s Baath Party for the attacks and vowed to apprehend the culprits.

In one of the deadliest assaults Wednesday, a car bomb struck a police station in Kut, about 100 miles southeast of Baghdad, near the offices of the Wasit province governor.

The attack killed 16 people and wounded 18, Gov. Latif Turfa said.

“I think terrorists and Baathists are trying to move the battle to Kut, which was calm all these years,” Turfa said. “There is definitely a security breach and negligence by the security agencies.”

Al-Qaida in Yemen is top threat to U.S., CIA says The Washington Post WASHINGTON — For the first time since the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, CIA analysts see one of al-Qaida’s offshoots — rather than the core group now based in Pakistan — as the most urgent threat to U.S. security, officials said.

The sober new assessment of al-Qaida’s affiliate in Yemen has helped prompt senior Obama administration officials to call for an escalation of U.S. operations there, including a proposal to add armed CIA

“We are looking to draw on all of the capabilities at our disposal,” said a senior Obama administration official, who described plans for “a ramp-up over a period of months.”

The officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss intelligence matters, stressed that analysts continue to see al-Qaida and its allies in the tribal areas of Pakistan as dangerous adversaries.

B U S I N E SS IN BRIEF Bend tops U.S. list of home depreciation Bend had the largest yearto-year drop in housing prices among U.S. metro areas for the second consecutive quarter, according to data released Wednesday by the Federal Housing Finance Agency.

Between the second quarter of 2009 and the same period this year, housing prices depreciated 18.59 percent in the Bend Metropolitan Statistical Area, which includes all of Deschutes County. That was the worst of all 303 MSAs the agency measured nationally.

Housing prices in Bend today are a far cry from where they were during the housing boom. Bend had the highest appreciation rate in the U.S. in 2006, topping out at about 36 percent on a year-to-year basis in the second quarter.

On a quarterly basis this year, prices dropped 2.16 percent during the second quarter of 2010 that ended June 30 from the first quarter.

During the first quarter, prices dropped 4 percent from the fourth quarter of 2009.

Oregon had the 16th highest depreciation, dropping 3.51 percent from the second quarter of 2009 to the second quarter this year. Prices rose from the first quarter, however, up 0.46 percent.

The data are based on a housing price index calculated by the Federal Housing Finance Agency that takes into account all purchases and refinanced mortgages.

Wal-Mart asks Supreme Court to hear sex-discrimination case Retail giant questioning lawsuit status, not claims of gender bias

By Steven Greenhouse New York Times News Service

Wal-Mart Stores asked the Supreme Court on Wednesday to review the largest employment discrimination lawsuit in U.S. history, involving more than a million female workers, current and former, at Walmart

and Sam’s Club stores.

Nine years after the suit was filed, the central issue before the Supreme Court will not be whether any discrimination occurred, but whether more than a million people can even make this joint claim through a classaction lawsuit, as opposed to

filing claims individually or in smaller groups.

In April, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit in San Francisco ruled 6-5 that the lawsuit could proceed as a jumbo class action — the fourth judicial decision upholding a class action.

Could cost $1 billion The stakes are huge. If the Supreme Court allows the suit to proceed as a class action,

that could easily cost Wal-Mart $1 billion or more in damages, legal experts say.

The court’s ruling could set guidelines for other types of class-action suits. “This is the big one that will set the standards for all other class actions,” said Robin S. Conrad, executive vice president of the National Chamber Litigation Center, an arm of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, which has filed several amicus briefs backing Wal-Mart.

Jobs in green fields focus of survey $1.25M grant to help state get better idea of agricultural workforce

By Ed Merriman The Bulletin

NEW DATA CENTER PREVIEWED

Agriculture accounts for 11 percent of all green jobs in Oregon, but with a $1.25 million American Recovery Act grant, the Oregon Employment Department is digging deeper into the types of jobs and training needed to meet anticipated growth in demand for green workers in farming, fishing and forestry.

“This is the first time that we have conducted this specific survey,” said Charlie Johnson, green jobs economist with the Employment Department. “We did conduct a survey last year, which found that there were roughly 5,800 green jobs in farming, fishing and forestry occupations throughout the state. However, the current survey has a slightly different purpose and is aimed at digging deeper into the agriculture industry specifically.”

Farming, fishing and forestry all fall under the USDA jurisdiction at the federal level.

ean Handley, director of business services for BendBroadband, discusses the sustainable design of the data center, called The Vault, that BendBroadband is building in northeast Bend. The data center’s roof will be covered with solar panels — with inverters supplied

by PV Powered — and will create enough energy to operate the office space in the building. Designers also hope a state-of-the-art cooling system that will be used in the center, which will store about 400 racks full of computer servers, will drastically lower the energy use of the overall building. The company plans to rent out portions of the data center it doesn’t use for its own purposes.

Handley gave his presentation on the data center to potential clients Wednesday at the Deschutes Brewery Mountain Room. For more on the BendBroadband data center, see Sunday’s Business section in The Bulletin.

The grant funds many large projects being conducted by multiple agencies, with the National Agricultural Statistics Service participating in the agriculture portion, along with the Employment Department. Johnson said the combined effort will be the most comprehensive look at agricultural employment in a decade.

The purpose of the agricultural survey is to learn more about employment in the agriculture sector, including how many agricultural jobs exist overall, what types of skill sets are in short supply, what types of activities take place that may not have been counted in the past as green jobs, and what types of training are needed. Johnson said survey results will be shared with agricultural employers and other groups, and will be made available to the public.

HOUSING CRISIS

Sales of new homes in July drop 12.4%, lowest level since ’63

By Christine Hauser New York Times News Service

Sales of new homes declined unexpectedly in July, the government said Wednesday in the second report this week that showed that the housing sector stalled last month.

The Commerce Department reported that sales of new homes in July fell 12.4 percent from June, to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 276,000 units. That was the lowest level in July since the government began keeping track in 1963.

July sales of new homes were 32.4 percent below sales for July 2009. Analysts surveyed by Thomson Reuters had expected sales to be flat in July from June. June sales were revised down to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 315,000, from 330,000, after May fell to an annual rate of 267,000.

The report also said the median sales price was $204,000 in July, down 6 percent from June and 4.8 percent from July 2009. The average sales price was $235,300 in July, down 3.1 percent from June.

July was the first month that home buyers could no longer qualify for a tax credit of as much as $8,000, which analysts said may have contributed to the decline.

The report was released a day after the National Association of Realtors reported that sales of used homes in July plunged to their lowest level in more than a decade, as home buyers lost the incentive of a government tax credit. The association said that the seasonally adjusted annual sales rate of 3.83 million was 25.5 percent below the level of July 2009.

Bernanke expected to outline new actions India: A tech Whether government will buy more assests will be a dominant question at summit

By Sewell Chan New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — With fresh signs that the housing market is weakening, the Federal Reserve chairman, Ben Bernanke, on Friday will offer his outlook on the economy, explain the Fed’s recent modest gambit to halt the slide and possibly outline other actions.

Bernanke’s speech, at an annual Fed symposium in Jackson

Hole, Wyo., will be his first public comments since the Fed announced it would invest proceeds from its holdings mortgage Ben Bernanke of bonds to buy more long-term Treasury securities to prop up the recovery.

It is not known what Bernanke will say, but some insight may come from an episode in his past: his concern, soon after he became a Fed governor, that the economy was at risk of deflation as the nation gradually recovered from the dot-com bust a decade ago.

Bernanke’s worry then is similar to what troubles the Fed now, and his views will have no small bearing on the Fed’s course of action. These days the Fed confronts the combination of persistently high unemployment and an inflation rate so low that it worries economists.

What will policymakers do?

Whether policymakers should take big steps to tackle the economic doldrums — by printing even more money and buying even more assets — will be the dominant question at the symposium and at the Fed’s next meeting Sept. 21.

Within the central bank, sev-

eral officials are alarmed at the threat of the economy falling into a dangerous cycle of declining demand, wages and prices not experienced since the Depression.

They say that a deflation, double-dip recession is unlikely, but they want to formulate concrete steps to ward it off.

Other officials believe the economic indicators, while dismaying, do not represent an immediate threat, and worry that additional monetary stimulus by the Fed could erode the already shaky confidence of the markets, or even backfire by eventually spurring uncontrolled inflation.

The Fed has not confronted the risk of deflation since 2003.

County has cash and talent, but not enough civil engineers

By Vikas Bajaj

Wal-Mart

New York Times News Service

PUNE, India — Call it India’s engineering paradox.

Despite this nation’s rise as a technology titan with some of the world’s best engineering minds, India’s full economic potential is stifled by potholed roadways, collapsing bridges, rickety railroads and a power grid so unreliable that many modern office buildings run their own diesel generators to make sure the lights and computers stay on.

It is not for want of money.

The Indian government aims to spend $500 billion on infrastructure by 2012 and twice that amount in the following five years. The problem is a dearth of engineers — or at least the civil engineers with the skill and expertise to make sure those ambitious projects are done on time and up to specifications.

Continued from B1 Meanwhile, the women at the core of the original lawsuit, known as Dukes v. Wal-Mart, have tried to move on with their lives. Some still work at WalMart and have been promoted or received raises. One still works as a greeter there. Others have left Wal-Mart.

The case began nearly a decade ago with one woman, Stephanie Odle, who was upset to discover that the top manager at the Sam’s Club where she worked as an assistant store manager had been administering a promotion test to the three male assistant store managers but not to her.

Male colleague paid $23,000 more a year That came after Odle discovered that a male assistant manager at a previous Sam’s Club where she worked had been earning $23,000 more a year than she was. When she complained, she said, the district manager responded, “Stephanie, that assistant manager has a family and two children to support.”

“I told him, ‘I’m a single mother, and I have a 6-month-old child to support,’” she recalled in an interview.

Lawyers representing the plaintiffs recruited Odle after obtaining data showing that just a third of Wal-Mart’s managers were women even though twothirds of its employees were.

The lawyers wanted to enlist a Wal-Mart employee whose complaints about pay and promotions would be a base from which to build a broader sex discrimination case.

Odle’s story, along with those of six other women, became the seed of the 2001 lawsuit that accused Wal-Mart of systematic discrimination against women in pay and promotions. No one expected it to become such a drawn-out battle.

In its appeal, Wal-Mart said the 9th Circuit’s decision had contradicted earlier decisions of the Supreme Court and other appeals courts and had wrongly relieved the plaintiffs of the burden of proving individual injury.

“This conflict and confusion in class-action law is harmful for everyone — employers, employees, businesses of all types and sizes and the civil justice system,” said Theodore Boutrous, a lawyer for Wal-Mart.

In its filing, Wal-Mart argued that while a class action might be appropriate for plaintiffs seeking

Stephanie Odle, an original plaintiff in the Wal-Mart sex discrimination case, at her take-out restaurant, Dishing it Up, in Norman, Okla., in May. Wal-Mart Stores asked the Supreme Court on Wednesday to review the largest employment discrimination lawsuit in American history, involving more than a million women workers, current and former, at Wal-Mart and Sam’s Club stores. changes to the retailer’s behavior, the status was improper for seeking monetary damages.

The company said the complaints of the seven women were not typical of the more than 1 million women who have worked at Wal-Mart in the last decade.

In a statement Wednesday, WalMart said that it “has been recognized as a leader in fostering the advancement and success of women in the workplace.”

Brad Seligman, a lawyer for the women, disputed Wal-Mart’s legal analysis.

“The ruling upholding the class in this case is well within the mainstream that courts at all levels have recognized for decades,” he said in an e-mail Wednesday. “Only the size of the case is unusual, and that is a product of Wal-Mart’s size and the breadth of the discrimination we documented. There is no ‘too big to be liable’ exception in civil rights laws.”

Legal process grinds on plaintiffs The slow grind of the legal process has taken its toll on the plaintiffs.

Patricia Surgeson said she had quit Wal-Mart in frustration after being repeatedly denied a promotion and discovering that male employees at her store were typically paid more than women.

She is now at home raising three children.

Cleo Page resigned from the Walmart store in Union City, Calif., and became a teacher for disabled students. She said she had grown angry because she was never promoted to management trainee and because the store manager had only considered men to head the sporting goods department.

Odle, who said Sam’s Club had fired her because she kept speaking out against discrimination, moved to Old Navy and then to Aeropostale.

At both, she said, managers threatened to fire her after discovering that she had appeared on television criticizing Wal-Mart.

Tired of worrying about dismissal, she went into business for herself. For the past five years, she has been selling country pecan pork chops and chicken and dumplings at Dishing It Up, her take-out meals shop in Norman, Okla.

“This way it’s better, because now no one can fire me,” Odle said.

Still, her customers frequently comment on her role in the lawsuit. “You have people who say, ‘You go, girl,’ and you have other people saying, ‘Oh, you’re that girl,’” she said. (Odle is no longer one of the named plaintiffs; that group is limited to California residents.)

David Tovar, a Wal-Mart spokesman, denied that there was any companywide discrimination, saying that conditions had steadily improved for female employees. He said 46 percent of Wal-Mart’s assistant store managers were women, a position that is a pipeline to higher positions.

Expert vs. expert Tovar pointed to a companysponsored expert study indicating that in 90 percent of its stores, there were no statistically significant pay disparities between men and women. But the plaintiffs’ experts said they found sex discrimination in all 46 Wal-Mart regions.

Boutrous said that even if the seven lead plaintiffs had suffered discrimination, that did not mean there was across-theboard bias at thousands of stores nationwide.

He said the women’s claims should be tried individually, or if a manager discriminated against a store’s 200 female employees, then perhaps as a 200-member class action for those women.

Joseph Sellers, a lawyer for the plaintiffs, said the case should be a class action because Wal-Mart had and still has a common set of personnel policies at all of its stores. “We regard them as cookie-cutter operations that are similar to each other,” he said.

Profession unpopular Civil engineering was once an elite occupation in India, not only during the British colonial era of carving roads and laying train tracks, but long after independence as part of the civil service. These days, though, India’s best and brightest know there is more money and prestige in writing software for foreign customers than in building roadways for their nation.

Beyond construction delays and potholes, experts say, the

engineering shortfall poses outright dangers. Last year, for example, an elevated span that was part of New Delhi’s muchlauded metro rail system collapsed, killing six people and injuring more than a dozen workers. A government report partly blamed faulty design for the accident; metro officials said they would now require an additional review of all designs by independent engineers.

Acknowledging India’s chronic shortage of civil engineers and other specialists, the national government is building 30 new universities and considering letting foreign institutions set up campuses in the country.

But about three-quarters of engineering students study at private colleges.

Poor entry-level pay Industry experts say a big obstacle to attracting more civil engineers is the paltry entrylevel pay. The field was considered relatively lucrative until the 1990s, when it was eclipsed by the pay in commercial software engineering.

Larsen & Toubro, a Mumbaibased engineering company that builds airports, power projects and other infrastructure, offers Build India Scholarships for students who want to pursue a master’s degree in construction technology and management. The program produces 50 to 60 graduates a year, who are hired by the company.

“You don’t get the best quality in civil engineers because today the first choice for students is other branches” of engineering, said K.P. Raghavan, an executive vice president in L.&T.’s construction division.

“We are compensating with lots of training.”

Data storage firm 3Par plans talks with bidder HP

By Dan Gallagher McClatchy-Tribune News Service

SAN FRANCISCO — 3Par Inc. said in a filing late Tuesday that it will hold talks with Hewlett-Packard Inc. over its unsolicited $1.6 billion takeover bid while giving Dell Inc. a chance to raise its own offer.

Shares of 3Par slipped 1 percent Wednesday, but remain above the $24-a-share cash offer made by HP on Monday.

HP offered to buy 3Par after the company had already secured an agreement with Dell to be acquired for $18 a share, or $1.15 billion.

Previous 3Par filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission suggested that HP had made an earlier bid, which was turned down.

In another filing after Tuesday’s closing bell, 3Par said it will formally enter talks with HP. It has

also given Dell three days to come up with a higher offer, in accordance with the previous agreement between the two companies.

“At this time, the board of directors of 3Par has not made a determination that HP’s unsolicited acquisition proposal is a “Superior Proposal” (as that term is defined in the Merger Agreement), and has not made any other determinations or taken any other actions with respect to HP’s acquisition proposal,” the company said in the filing.

Many analysts believe that Dell will raise its offer for 3Par, as Dell is hoping to use the acquisition to strengthen its enterprise datastorage offerings.

Shares of Dell added 1.7 percent to $11.79 Wednesday. The stock slipped nearly 4 percent over the past two days on concerns that the company may be tempted to overpay for the deal.

Joblessness slashes interest on bank deposits Average national rate dips below 1% because lending activity is stagnating

By Jennifer Waters McClatchy-Tribune News Service

CHICAGO — Bad news for savers: The national average rate on checking, savings and other deposit accounts has dipped below the 1 percent mark for the first time in at least 10 years — and doesn’t appear headed higher anytime soon, according to an analysis by Market Rates Insight.

Not surprisingly, the woeful state of the economy is the culprit: A “strong and significant negative relationship” between unemployment and the interest rates paid on consumers’ deposits has reared its ugly head, San Anselmo, Calif.-based MRI said.

The study found that a whopping 65 percent of the swing since 2001 in deposit interest

rates, also linked to money-market and certificate-of-deposit accounts, is tied to the ebb and flow in the nation’s jobless rate, which stood at 9.5 percent in July.

“Clearly the unemployment rate is a major factor in deposit rates,” said Dan Geller, executive vice president at MRI and author of the study.

The gap between the national average of deposit rates and unemployment has widened considerably since the middle of 2007.

The national average interest rates fell to 0.99 percent in July.

As a barometer of economic activity, the unemployment rate typically reflects credit and lending activities. In this recession, the relationship is marked by the tightened state of credit markets.

“When there is less lending (activity), lending institutions require less deposits to fund lending,” according to the study. “Although lending institutions will never refuse deposits, they lower the interest rate on these deposits to the lowest possible level.

“Hence, when unemployment goes up, deposit interest rates go

For long-term jobless, staying hopeful remains challenging Struggle to stay afloat becomes desperate as benefits run dry

By Claudia Buck McClatchy-Tribune News Service

SACRAMENTO, Calif.

— When he lost his job in April 2009, Robert Mathis wasn’t worried. With 23 years at AAA, most recently as a “quality analyst” driving to auto club offices in three Western states, he was confident of quickly finding work.

Fast-forward to August 2010.

These days, it’s hard to rev up much optimism. The 48-year-old feels he’s riding on fumes. He’s burned through his severance and nearly tapped out his 401(k) fund. Despite numerous applications, his job search has netted just three in-person interviews.

Worse, his health care premiums just tripled — to $586 a month — while his unemployment benefits will expire early next year.

Before his layoff, Mathis already was feeling some financial strain following a home foreclosure and subsequent divorce. Now he’s getting desperate, even contemplating a move from his Placerville, Calif., rental to his mother’s home more than 300 miles away in Northern California.

Finding a job ‘is the hardest job’ “When you first get laid off, you think: ‘I’m smart. I can do this. I’ll get another job in six months,’ ” said a weary-sounding Mathis.

But after nearly 16 months he’s discovered that “finding a job is the hardest job you can do.”

Especially when he’s got so much company. By U.S. Department of Labor standards, anyone who’s been jobless more than six months (27 weeks or more) is considered “long-term unemployed.” Nationally, about 6.6 million people were in that category as of July, nearly quadruple the number in July 2008.

“These are the highest figures

Money-saving tips Here are some of financial planner Debbie Grose’s recommendations to Robert Mathis, who has been unemployed since April 2009.

• Continue to be frugal in order to build up a savings reserve.

• Settle up with the IRS and state Franchise Tax Board, to which he owes a total of $13,700. Grose suggested contacting the IRS about its economic hardship program, which helps the unemployed deal with delinquent tax bills.

• Consider selling his 2009 Toyota Camry — purchased four months before his unexpected layoff — and getting a less-expensive used car.

If it pencils out, he could earn a few we’ve seen in 62 years — not only the sheer numbers but the percentage of the work force who are long-term unemployed,” said Amar Mann, an economist with the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics in San Francisco. During the previous worst recession in June 1983, Mann said, 2.6 percent of the work force was long-term unemployed; today, it’s 4.3 percent.

To help Mathis and other longterm unemployed, we asked Debbie Grose, a certified financial planner with Lighthouse Financial Planning LLC in Folsom, Calif., to map out plans for cutting costs and finding work.

On a recent morning, spreading out Mathis’ financial paperwork on her firm’s conference table, Grose quickly summed up the obvious: Facing the loss of his unemployment benefits and a tripling of his health insurance premiums, Mathis “needs to readjust pretty quickly.”

hundred dollars on the trade, plus save on his auto insurance.

• Switch to a lower-cost health plan.

• Consider switching to a prepaid cell phone that doesn’t require a monthly service plan. Don’t switch, however, if penalties will incur.

• Look into cheaper housing: taking a roommate; renting a room, rather than a house; offering to mow lawns or do maintenance in exchange for reduced rent.

• Call utility companies to ask about hardship reductions.

• Consider withholding taxes from alternating unemployment checks to ensure there’s enough to cover an estimated $1,000 federal and state tax bill.

Mathis, who has significantly lowered his professional expectations, took some recent steps to amp up his job search.

Networking online Worried that his 23 years at AAA might make him sound old, he’s adding a photo to his LinkedIn.com profile to make it obvious that he’s still in his 40s.

Several weeks ago, Mathis posted his résumé on Facebook to get feedback from friends and colleagues. He’s already gotten some useful critiques, he says.

This month, he applied for three jobs: at Marshall Hospital, for a Verizon customer sales job

and for a school custodial job in Placerville. All three potential employers turned him down.

“It’s like I’ve lost a piece of who I am because I don’t have a job,” said Mathis. “People ask what you do for a living, and I don’t have an answer anymore.”

Job hunting help Grose’s recommendations: • Fine-tune your résumé. If it hasn’t been updated recently, get professional advice to be sure it’s current and lists specific job skills, such as training, instructing and claims analysis.

• Return to a career center to evaluate new retraining programs.

• Sign up with a temporary staffing agency.

• Volunteer. It’s good for the soul to help a good cause. And it adds to the résumé.

• Find things that make you happy, whether it’s cooking a meal or spending time with friends or family.

Above all, she urged him to stay hopeful. As someone in career transition herself a few years ago, Grose said she understands the intense feelings of discouragement. “I know it’s hard. It’s difficult hearing ‘no’ after ‘no’ for over a year.”

Leaning across the table, the financial planner reminded him: “You’ve got some great skills and talents. You are not this situation.

Honor that.”

down,” the study said.

Certainly, there are other factors that feed into low interest rates on deposits — most notably, the federal funds rate, which was 0.18 percent in July. The annual inflation rate, which was 1.24 percent last month, fuels the prevailing level of interest rates as well.

“Historically, the Fed did not increase the funds rate during high unemployment periods,” Geller said. “When we see the unemployment rate start to decline, it will be a sign that interest rates on deposits are about to go up.”

information from the surveys to the Oregon Career Pathways Initiative, which advises representatives of Oregon’s 17 community colleges about training and curriculum needed to meet demand for green jobs in agriculture and related industries.

“We hope the state’s training agencies will be able to use the data to improve their agriculture related training programs to target the skills needed by employers,” Johnson said.

Overall, Johnson said, roughly 3 percent of Oregon’s non-federal jobs are green jobs.

A comprehensive survey of statewide annual agricultural employment conducted in 2008 estimated employment at about 55,000, according to Brent Searle, economist with the Oregon Department of Agriculture.

Searle said agricultural employment reported each quarter by the Employment Department doesn’t include seasonal workers and those employed by farms and ranches with fewer than 10 employees.

Oregon’s agricultural industry saw gross sales decline by about $1 billion in 2009 because of the recession, falling to about $4.1 billion, but Searle said employment held fairly steady despite the sales drop.

That’s because more farmers are adding opportunities for year-around employment so they don’t have to hire and train new workers or import foreign workers as much as they did in the past, Searle said.

He said the Employment Department’s estimate of 5,800 green jobs in agriculture may reflect a viewpoint from outside the industry, whereas the viewpoint from inside the industry is that “we look at everything we do as an industry as being green.”

He said farmers and ranchers “are always trying to be improve sustainability.”

Searle said research conducted

by Oregon State University for the ODA estimated 214,000 people are employed statewide in agriculture and related occupations such as food processing, sales of feed, seed, machinery and chemicals, transportation, import and export of agricultural products and other jobs generated by agriculture.

Continued from B1 Jobs to be targeted by the survey range from farm workers, laborers and agricultural equipment operators to forest conservation workers and loggers, Johnson said.

The department received the Recovery Act grant in December to pay for survey work to be conducted through May 11 of next year, Johnson said.

A previous survey conducted in 2008 showed 3,000 green jobs in the farm worker and laborers occupation were paid an average of $13.17 per hour, while agricultural equipment operators working in green jobs were paid an average of $10.42, and foresters and conservation workers with green jobs earned an average of $14.86 per hour.

To generate the most accurate and up-to-date information possible with the new surveys, Johnson said the Employment Department is encouraging agricultural employers to respond.

“Agricultural employers have been asking us for more accurate information about their work force, and this is their opportunity to participate in our effort to provide them with the information they want,” Johnson said. “Our ability to produce accurate and reliable data about Oregon’s work force is completely dependent on the willingness of employers to share their information with us.”

The Oregon Agricultural Statistics Service is working with the Employment Department to distribute the surveys to farmers, ranchers and other agricultural employers in September.

The Employment Department defines a green job as work that increases energy efficiency, produces renewable energy, prevents, reduces or mitigates environmental degradation, involves cleaning up and restoring the natural environment, or provides education, consulting, policy promotion, accreditation, carbon trading and offsets or similar services.

“This definition was adopted as Oregon’s official definition of a green job by the Oregon Legislature in House Bill 3300,” Johnson said.

Johnson is working with Shalee Hodgson, community college education and work force specialist for the Employment Department, who will provide

bers had been expected to show some improvement, and that might have contributed to a market sell-off.

“We are in the middle of the debate as to whether this early stage economic recovery is actually happening,” Thorne said.

“We are still fairly optimistic that this recovery is in the early stages of taking hold, though a lot of the data points are still not showing up positively.”

Other economic statistics released Wednesday also reflected the sluggish pace of the recovery. Even the manufacturing sector, once considered a strong point, appeared to struggle.

Orders of big-ticket items from American factories rose less than forecast in July, an indication that manufacturing was beginning to weaken, the Commerce Department reported Wednesday.

It said orders to American factories for durable goods rose 0.3 percent last month,

Continued from B1 Mortgage rates are the lowest in modern memory while affordability — because of price declines of 30 percent in many areas — is the highest in at least a decade.

The federal government allows buyers to put only a token amount down, guarantees lenders against default and regularly issues proclamations that the worst is over.

Still, with unemployment steady for months at more than 9 percent, and with millions heavily in debt or simply skittish, many potential buyers are sitting on the sidelines.

Real estate helped drive this recession, and no one expects it to lead the way out. Instead, the urgent question is how much it will hinder other parts of the fragile recovery.

How to browse safely

Continued from B1 To protect themselves at home, users can utilize security measures available in their Wi-Fi routers and access points such as Wi-Fi Protected Access versions 1 and 2, according to Johnson, who is systems and networking manager for FIU’s School of Computing and Information Sciences.

Looking to set-up a Wi-Fi network at home or enjoy browsing the Internet in public? Florida International University network manager Eric Johnson offers this advice.

• Protect your network with a WPA/WPA2 encryption and allow it to generate a password for you, rather than choosing something predictable like your last name or birthday.

• Use common sense when connecting to a Wi-Fi network outside of your home. If you notice more than one network, ask someone at your location, be it a coffee shop or an airport, which network is the correct one.

Built-in encryption

Mello secures his home network using WPA 2 encryption and even then limits access to important sites like online banking to his cellular phone application, which transmits data over his mobile carrier’s network, something that is much harder to penetrate.

Leaving the default security settings switched on in a home wireless router is never a good idea.

Elias Montoya, technology director for Abadin Cook, a Miami-based law firm, said users should make sure to stick to a strong password, such as the WPA 2-generated password, which mixes characters,

WPA and WPA 2 encryption is built in to any hardware that is branded “Wi-Fi Certified,” a seal given to products authorized by the Wi-Fi Alliance, a nonprofit consortium of technology companies.

This type of security protects home networks by securing data between the access point and the computer with government grade encryption, according to the organization’s website.

WPA 2 will also randomly generate a secure password for the network and can be activated in the router or access point’s settings.

much less than the 3 percent growth that had been forecast.

Excluding the volatile transportation sector, orders dropped 3.8 percent. Orders for machinery dropped 15 percent, while those for capital goods dropped 8 percent.

“July’s durable goods report adds to the recent evidence from numerous activity surveys that the manufacturing recovery has lost nearly all of the considerable

momentum it had,” economists from Capital Economics wrote in a research note.

“The rebound in manufacturing was one of the bright spots in an otherwise disappointing recovery, the note said. “Take it away, throw in a renewed collapse in housing, and you don’t have much left.”

On Friday, the government will offer its latest estimate on second-quarter growth. Analysts now expect that growth in the quarter will be revised down to an annual rate of 1.4 percent from the previous estimate of 2.4 percent.

Though the low rates have not spurred home buying, the demand for home refinancing loans last week hit a 15-month high, the Mortgage Bankers Association said Wednesday in a statement.

Refinancing accounted for 82.4 percent of total applications last week up from 81.4 percent the previous week, which is the highest share since January 2009, the association said.

• Don’t do things in public you don’t want to be seen.

Most public Wi-Fi hotspots are not secured; always assume someone can see what you are surfing on in these places.

• Use different passwords for different services. Sites like social networking sites don’t always default to a secure connection. Bad guys will try to use a password they collect from those sites • Be careful about signing on to social networking sites and forums. These sites don’t always use a secure https:// protocol and require login/password to get in. If your social network password is the same as the one for your bank account, hackers will use them.

numbers and letters rather than choosing something predictable like their home phone number or leaving the default password.

Keep wary mindset “The (Wi-Fi) user should be in the mindset that nothing is 100 percent secure. ... If someone is intent on hacking you, they will,” Montoya said.

Wi-Fi use in public places,

such as coffee shops, is becoming increasingly popular, but these networks are typically wide open, said Johnson.

“You should always treat any Internet activity you do at these locations as if it’s being monitored,” he said.

Johnson added that people should stay away from doing anything that they would not want to be seen, such as online banking.

Facebook sues company for using ‘book’ in its name McClatchy-Tribune News Service CHICAGO — Social networking giant Facebook has sued a Northbrook, Ill.-based Web company for using “book” in its name.

Teachbook.com LLC is a free Web community for teachers that provides tools to manage their classrooms, communicate with parents and share lesson plans and other resources.

The site isn’t officially active

yet, but Teachbook.com managing director Greg Shrader said he’s planning to launch it soon after Labor Day and believes Facebook’s claims of trademark infringement are “wrong on their merits.”

The lawsuit was filed in U.S. district court in San Jose, Calif., last week, according to a copy of the filing posted on Wired.com, which reported on the legal dispute Tuesday.

Consumers employ range of self-serve technologies

By Bridget Carey McClatchy-Tribune News Service

MIAMI — Consumers accustomed to using self-service kiosks to withdraw cash, pay for groceries and check in for flights are finding do-it-yourself computer stations in new and sometimes unexpected places.

Some doctors’ offices are using self-service stations to check in patients. At hotels, guests can check in or even buy accessories such as bathing suits. Movie tickets, cruise line boarding passes and DVD movie rentals can, in many places, be picked up with the swipe of a credit card.

“We’re seeing self-service technology take off in really in every industry,” said Jeff Dudash, spokesman for NCR — the company that creates most of these machines and invented the ATM machine.

That’s because customers are used to having more control, and for the most part, they’re loving it, say trend researchers. Forrester Research, a leader in tracking technology trends, reported 61 percent of U.S. adults who are active online want to scan and pay for purchases using self-checkout options, and 74 percent who have used kiosks say it is useful.

BuzzBack Market Research, which managed a survey for its client NCR, said 81 percent of North Americans surveyed

Pedro Portal / Miami Herald

A Blockbuster DVD Express rental Kiosk stands inside at Navarro Pharmacy in Miami, Fla., on Thursday. were more likely to choose retailers that let them use self-service options.

Although kiosks can save business owners some staff costs, many who have adopted self-service technology have found the real advantages are saving time and putting staff to work on other customer service areas.

At Miami’s Paragon Grove 13, a new reserved seating movie theater with 85 employees, many tickets are sold by kiosk. Only two box office employees are required. But staffers are still

needed to help guests find their seats and serve concessions.

However, not all sectors of self-service take off as fast as expected. The Grand Beach hotel in Miami, which put in a kiosk earlier this summer for quick check-ins, hasn’t seen it used much. Guests seem to prefer talking to a person when they are starting their vacation and learning about the hotel, said staff. Instead, the kiosk has been used for a familiar transaction: printing airline boarding passes.

LILY RAFF

Public weighs in on park’s future Desired amenities at Pine Nursery include disc golf course, rugby field

Horses offer lessons in trust, hope

W

e don’t think about it often, but for any of us, life can turn upside down in an instant.

The pull of a trigger. The ring of a phone.

For Amy Platt and her boyfriend, Justin Ward, it happened July 10. It was a little after 10 p.m., and the air stayed warm even as the sun dropped behind the Cascades. Amy, Justin and his parents, Kim and Sally Ward, sat down to an outdoor dinner of grilled steaks.

Kim and Sally Ward bought this 165acre parcel east of Bend in the 1970s.

They dream of building a house there, with homes for their four children, too.

Someday, Sally imagines this will be their “little piece of heaven.”

That Saturday, the whole family was sweaty and satisfied after working on an underground irrigation system.

Then Justin’s cell phone rang. It was a Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office deputy.

You’ve got some horses bleeding in your pasture, he said.

Justin and Amy jumped in their pickup and drove a couple of hundred yards downhill to the pasture gate.

April, a 3-year-old paint mare whom Amy had just started riding, stood shaking near the fence, her head drooping almost to the ground.

Even in the dark, they saw the blood immediately. It was all over April. It was in the grass and the dirt. It was on the gate and fence posts.

“At first, I thought it was a cougar attack,” Amy says. Then Justin noticed the blood was frothy, like that from a deer’s lung punctured by a bullet.

“She’s been shot,” he gasped.

They loaded the mare into a trailer and raced to Bend Equine Medical Center in Tumalo. Justin made Amy wait in the car while he opened the trailer stall.

“I didn’t want her to see (the horse) dead,” he says.

But April was still standing. A veterinarian, Dr. Wayne Schmotzer, found that April had been shot twice — in the side and in the rear. Then he saw blood smeared across her back.

“You’ve got another horse out there that’s been shot,” he told the couple.

They raced home, loaded their other three horses in the trailer and drove back to Tumalo. An entire team of veterinarians was waiting. Just one of the three horses — a 7-year-old named Denny — had been shot, in the face.

Amy took the following week off from her job at The Heart Center at St. Charles Bend. For days, she sat in April’s stall at the clinic and sobbed.

When she returned to her job, she visited the horses at lunch and after work every day.

Denny recovered quickly, though Amy expects one tooth and part of his jaw will have to be removed to prevent infection. The bullet splintered in his skull. For the rest of his life, the couple must monitor the symmetry of his face and watch for signs of infection.

April’s injuries are much more serious. Amy still tears up as she recounts the many times that vets told her to brace for the mare to stop eating and drinking, a sign that she had given up and should be euthanized.

But April never gave up.

And last week, she came home. Like Denny, she still has shrapnel inside her body that could cause future damage.

She requires weekly ultrasounds until the fluid drains from her lungs. Amy and Justin face more than $30,000 in veterinary bills.

Meanwhile, 26-year-old Inga Kemnitz faces seven charges related to the shootings. She pleaded not guilty and is scheduled to go to trial Sept. 7.

Justin and Amy say they have never met Kemnitz and have no idea why she might have shot their horses.

“At first I wondered, did I cut her off one day by accident?” Amy says.

They shudder to think what might have happened if the shooter had been there just one hour earlier, when Justin and Amy were watering the herd and saying goodnight to them.

But for now, the couple is focused on learning a lesson from their horses, who remain as trusting as ever. They still rush to the gate when a stranger approaches.

“For being so unlucky,” Amy says, “I feel really, really lucky.”

Despite a walking and biking path, fishing pond, off-leash dog area, four soccer fields and four softball fields, there’s still plenty of room for more at Pine Nursery Park on Bend’s east side.

Wednesday night, the Bend Park & Recreation District invited members of the public to an open house to hear what they’d like to see in the next phases of the 160-acre park. The park district is in the process of rewriting the park’s master plan, providing an opportunity to consider new amenities.

Park district development manager Norm Zeismer said some portions of phase 2, such as additional soccer/softball fields and lighting for all playing fields, are all but certain to be included in the revised master plan.

But other possible features, like horseshoe pits, courts for bocce ball and beach volleyball, a skate park and a course for radio-controlled cars, are still under consideration, he said.

Bruce Ronning, the park district’s director of planning and development, said it is expected phase 2 will be built sometime in the next 10 years, with the

timing largely dependent on economic conditions. Park construction has historically been funded through systems development charges levied against new construction, which has slowed to a trickle in recent years.

Chad Berg came to Wednesday’s meeting to speak up for a disc golf course in the next phase of the park.

Berg said in each of the four years he’s lived in Bend, the course at Central Oregon Community College and the course in Sisters have been closed by around August.

Both courses are closed on account

of fire danger, he said, due to players who smoke on the courses.

“It happens every summer, so the only option we have is to go to Mt. Bachelor, which is a great course, but it costs money,” he said.

Berg said he expects many disc golfers would be willing to donate labor and materials to help build a course, and would probably pay a small fee to play in order to fund maintenance.

Bend Rugby Club Coach Matt Burke said he gets the feeling that “we rank low on the priority list” for the park district. The club has around 130 members right now, he said, but expects to continue growing in the future.

Improvements planned at 2 Redmond high schools $800K from bond going toward clinic, concession stand

By Patrick Cliff The Bulletin

REDMOND — The Redmond School Board decided to spend about $800,000 of its bond savings to build a concession stand at the new high school and install a health clinic at Redmond High School.

The 3-1 vote came during its Wednesday meeting, when board members

discussed how to spend some of the $15 million in savings from bond-related projects. In 2008, district voters passed a $110 million bond to build the new high school, Sage Elementary and various renovation projects. But construction bids came in lower than expected because of the recession, and so the district has millions it could spend on capital projects or return to taxpayers.

Jefferson planners wrestle with fate of lakeside property

By Lauren Dake The Bulletin

MADRAS — Jefferson County Planning Director Jon Skidmore pointed his red laser at a picture of a large dock in his PowerPoint presentation. Later, he fixed the red dot on a picture of a sink he believed drained into Lake Billy Chinook. Another slide showed more buildings, some with solar panels, others with large porches. His point? All of the structures were built illegally. None of them, Skidmore told Jefferson County commissioners at a public hearing on Wednesday, were built using permits.

Now, the landowners are trying to comply with land use policies. The property sits on the shore of Lake Billy Chinook, near the arm of the Metolius River. The owners are hoping turning their piecemeal camp into a more permanent development, with 15 accommodations or guest rooms.

The state land use regulations allow for fishing guest rooms on their property, and they point to similar developments on property next to them.

But how they get there will test land use laws and has environmental advocates concerned.

See Property / C6

The board will assemble a task force of about 16 community members to recommend ways to spend the bulk of that money. The board could still decide to return all or a portion of the savings to taxpayers. But because of time pressures, board members approved the latest round of spending.

About $660,000 will be budgeted for restrooms and concessions on the athletic fields at the new high school. Had the board waited, the cost would have increased because plumbing and elec-

trical installations would have forced construction crews to dig up sidewalks that will soon be in place at the site, according to Chief Operations Officer Doug Snyder.

“Do you want to open the high school without restrooms there?” Snyder asked.

“I don’t think that’s where we want to be … not to have basic amenities.”

The school-based health clinic will be located at Redmond High and is expected to open early in 2011.

Heavy smoke drifted over Bend Wednesday evening due to changing wind currents surrounding the Scott Mountain Fire east of Sisters.

“What happened is there’s a marine front coming in, one that will bring us cooler temperatures, and when that came over the Cascades this afternoon it actually turned the fire around,” said Judy McHugh of the Willamette National Forest.

Until Wednesday, the fire had been growing westward, McHugh said, but winds are now driving it north and east toward lava flows on Belknap Ridge.

The blaze appears to have reached the lava flow and stopped growing, she said, but fuels in the burned area are likely to continue smoldering — and smoking — over the next few days.

Bend developer Stephen Trono, who was shot several times in his home on July 28, has been downgraded from serious to critical condition, according to a St. Charles Bend spokeswoman.

Trono, 60, has been hospitalized since he was shot by his wife, who told Stephen police she beTrono lieved he was an intruder.

He was listed in critical condition until Aug. 6, when he was upgraded to serious condition. A family friend said Trono had undergone several surgeries.

Trono’s condition was downgraded to critical on Friday.

No charges have been filed and detectives from the Bend Police Department are still investigating the incident.

Brush fire spreads to Bend home’s deck A brush fire that spread to a Bend home Wednesday afternoon caused minor damage to a wooden deck, according to the Bend Fire Department.

Firefighters were sent to 62968 Fresca St. on Bend’s north side at 3:20 p.m., where they found a small wildfire spreading to the deck and exterior of the home.

Once the fire was extinguished, firefighters spoke to the homeowner and determined that the most likely cause of the blaze was an improperly discarded cigarette.

Damage was estimated at $5,000.

FAA slams former aviation director State management of Aurora State Airport also criticized; agency sets deadline for correction plan The Associated Press SALEM — An aircraft parking lease awarded by former state aviation director Dan Clem violated federal policies by benefiting a businessman at the expense of the Aurora State Airport, federal regulators said.

The Federal Aviation Administration also said that state financial management of the busy airport in farmland south of Portland is “deficient at best.�

The Statesman Journal reports federal regulators recently gave the state 30 days to submit a correction plan — which is required to continue the flow of $150,000 per year in federal funding for the airport.

Federal scrutiny of leasing practices at the state-owned airport in Marion County focused on a 2008 lease that Clem awarded to TLM Holdings and

its managing member, Ted Millar.

Clem told the Salem newspaper he disagreed with the federal findings and he defended the lease, saying it will provide longterm benefits to the airport.

The 25-year lease, plus a possible five-year extension, was signed by Clem and Millar in August 2008. It granted TLM aircraft parking space totaling 31,359 square feet and called for an in-kind payment of $78,000, consisting of paving work.

FAA regulators determined the lease violated a federal policy that requires airport rates and charges to be set in a way that is transparent, reasonable and fair, according to an Aug. 6 letter sent to the state by Dave Roberts, a civil engineer and project manager for the agency’s Northwest Mountain Region in

Renton, Wash. “ODA in its response was unable to provide any documentation on how the $78,000 in-kind payment was determined or calculated relative to the land value,� it says.

Aviation regulators also determined that the paving work benefited the businessman but not the airport, violating the FAA’s revenue use policy. “ODA stated that the leased property was to be exclusively used by TLM,� Roberts stated in the letter. “Therefore, at the end of the lease term there is no value received by the airport for the use of the property.�

The Statesman Journal obtained the FAA letter through a public records request filed with the Oregon Department of Aviation.

Aurora State Airport is one of 28 state-owned airports overseen by the aviation department.

Located near Interstate 5 about midway between Salem and

Portland, it ranks as the third busiest airport in the state behind the Portland International and Hillsboro airports.

Clem said TLM’s paving work will provide long-term benefits for the airport. “That airport is scheduled for an air control tower and potentially even more traffic,� Clem said. “I would argue that at the end of the lease, they have more tarmac and space for aircraft to move around in, off of the runway and taxiways.�

Questions about the lease Clem awarded to Millar were first raised by a former state airports manager, William Pruitt, who claimed he was wrongly fired by Clem, in part because he objected to the lease.

Clem chose Pruitt to be second-in-command at the aviation department in June 2008. He fired him about three months later after they disagreed about the disputed lease and other issues.

O Transient jailed after fire races down Ashland street Blaze started at barn used by homeless sparks ‘inferno’ that destroys 11 homes

By Jeff Barnard The Associated Press

ASHLAND — Families looked for valuables, pets and mementoes Wednesday in the ashes of 11 homes destroyed by a fast-moving wildfire while a homeless man accused of starting the blaze sat in jail.

John Thiry, 40, was arrested at 3 a.m. under a freeway ramp and booked on 10 counts of reckless endangerment and 14 counts of reckless burning, police said.

“Homeless John Thiry, living in the 40, is facing interface in 10 counts of Ashland is a reckless enreal problem dangerment and a huge and 14 counts concern,” said of reckless Gary Jones burning in as he helped the Ashland his daughter, blaze.

But by the same token, you can’t have camping in the middle of summer out there and lighting the place on fire.”

‘It was just an inferno’ Ashland police Detective Sgt. Jim Alderman said other people at a homeless camp along Interstate 5 just outside the city limits saw Thiry running from the initial fire Tuesday afternoon.

The fire immediately burned an abandoned barn where homeless people sleep, and the embers blew across the freeway, touching off the blaze that raced through a subdivision, Alderman said.

the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, ignited the 11 homes on one side of the same street one after the other, setting off explosions Tuesday afternoon.

“It was just inferno — black smoke … things blowing up, gas tanks, tires,” neighborhood resident Cindy Walker said.

“Propane tanks, I don’t know. It sounded like bombs going off.

Like tornadoes of black smoke coming out of garages and backyards.”

Lisa Jones, pregnant with her first child, said she had just gone outside to get a tomato from the garden when she saw that a house down the street was on fire. Her husband, teacher Nanosh Lucas, was on the couch recuperating from minor surgery.

They managed to grab her computer and set a propane tank out in the street so it wouldn’t explode before a police officer told them it was time to go. They drove away in her car, leaving his in the driveway, where it burned.

When they returned, their cat, Lucy, was nowhere to be found.

Breakaway Modocs work toward formal recognition as a tribe

By Lee Juillerat Herald and News

KLAMATH FALLS — The recently created Modoc Nation, a group of Modocs attempting to break away from the Klamath Tribes, is working to create its legitimacy among other Indian tribes and government agencies.

“How we become recognized is that we begin acting and behaving as what we truly are, a nation,” said Perry Chesnut, the Modocs’ secretary of state. “We’re going to end up with a brighter future for our people.”

Earlier this summer, Modocs — including several who are enrolled members of the Klamath Tribes, which includes Klamaths, Modocs and Yahooskins — declared their independence from the Klamath Tribes. Chesnut said nearly 100 adults, including 30 enrolled Klamaths, have obtained voting memberships.

Until the Modoc Nation is formally recognized and receives federal benefits, Chesnut said, Modocs are being instructed not to withdraw as members of the Klamath Tribes.

Chesnut said the split reflects 146 years of oppression by the Klamaths, including events that caused Modocs led by Captain Jack to leave the Klamath Reservation and begin the spiral of events that led to the Modoc War

“How we become recognized is that we begin acting and behaving as what we truly are, a nation.

We’re going to end up with a brighter future for our people.”

— Perry Chesnut, Modoc secretary of state in 1872-73. He said differences between Modocs and Klamaths have persisted since then.

“There was no hope,” he said of divisions between Klamaths and Modocs. “The Modocs are just a captive group.”

Spokesmen for the Klamath Tribes declined to comment.

Preparations for the split have been going on for about two years.

In declaring their independence, Modoc Nation leaders said they are already a federally recognized tribe but claimed they have been under the “oppressive yoke of the Klamath government.”

Chesnut said a goal of the Modoc Nation is to become completely self-sufficient in 15 years and end any reliance on federal funding.

The house was flattened.

“It was really cool,” Lisa Jones said of their house. “It had a nice open floor plan. About a year ago we finished painting it. We took down the wallpaper. We put down new floors. We had all our artwork from traveling.

“We just drove away,” she said.

While Lisa Jones and her best friend, Lauren Jones, took photos of the rubble, Gary Jones exclaimed that he had found two carbonized tomatoes in what was left of the garden.

“No way! Stop it! Serious?” his daughter exclaimed.

“Oooooooh. The one garden I ever had.”

“These are going in the museum,” Gary Jones said.

Tinderbox conditions Firefighters were battling the initial fire that destroyed the barn, along with two shacks and a trailer, when they got the call that flames were running up a grassy hill across the freeway and igniting a line of homes, said city Fire Marshal

and Division Chief Margueritte Hickman.

Walker said many people recently stopped watering their lawns and landscaping due to drought conditions and the high price of city water.

That may have contributed to the dry conditions that fueled the fire, she said.

Some of the burned homes had shake roofs, which ignite easily, Hickman added.

“We are in extreme fire danger,” she said, noting some of the landscaping close to homes could have contributed to them catching fire. “The reason we have restrictions are fires like this.”

By nightfall Tuesday, a line of burned homes stretched along the freeway side of the street, some gutted and some burned to the ground, flames still burning the interiors.

Cars sped by on the freeway behind them.

“It looks like a war zone has gone through here,” said District Fire Marshal Don Hickman, Margueritte Hickman’s husband.

O B 2 arrested at ‘Shop With a Cop’ event PORTLAND — A Portland police spokesman says two men arrested for shoplifting during a “Shop With a Cop” event for schoolchildren initially thought it was the worst of times to steal, what with more than 60 uniformed officers on scene.

But Sgt. Pete Simpson says the two gave it some more thought and decided “it would be a good time to steal, that police would be distracted.”

Store security officers at the Fred Meyer store weren’t distracted Wednesday. Simpson says security watched two young men packing their own backpacks with blenders, shoes, clothes and tools while officers helped children pick out supplies for the school year.

The newspaper The Oregonian said a couple of Portland officers helped arrest the duo.

In Simpson’s words, “Common sense didn’t play into their decision-making today.”

Worker injured at recycling company CANBY — A Canby fire official says a man crushed by a piece of equipment at a recycling company was airlifted to a Portland hospital.

The man was not immediately identified after Wednesday’s accident at K.B. Recycling, and his condition was not known. He was flown to Oregon Health and Science University Hospital’s trauma unit.

Deputy Fire Marshal Todd Gary of the Canby Fire District said firefighters arrived to find an employee who had been removed by co-workers from the pickup arm of a garbage truck. Gary says the man appeared to have inju-

Cigarette blamed in Tigard condo fire TIGARD — A condo fire that caused $500,000 in damage to a $1.2 million building in suburban Tigard resulted from improper disposal of a cigarette.

Tualatin Valley Fire and Rescue officials said Wednesday that a team of investigators interviewed more than a dozen people and picked through the charred area of origin to determine the cause of the Tuesday night blaze.

All of the units in the building sustained some type of damage, from light smoke damage to heavy fire and water damage.

The building is not equipped with a sprinkler system, and the fire investigator was unable to locate a smoke detector in the unit where the fire started.

Three residents were treated at the scene for smoke inhalation; two of them were sent to hospitals.

Seaside weighs fate of its sewage sludge SEASIDE — The city of Seaside is considering whether it should send its sewage sludge to Portland instead of spraying it on a local farmer’s property.

Protests by residents along the Lewis and Clark River prompted Seaside to delay its spraying plans.

Public Works Director Neal Wallace told the Daily Astorian he had contacted Bravo Environmental NW Inc. to determine if the Portland company could take 60,000 gallons of biosolids every week during the summer.

Wallace said the company would further refine the treated sludge and remove the water from it, then take it to Eastern Oregon, where it would be sprayed on nonfood crops.

Terri Horman, right, leaves the Multnomah County Courthouse on Wednesday.

Missing boy’s stepmother appears in divorce court The Associated Press PORTLAND — The stepmother of a missing 7-year-old boy made a rare public appearance Wednesday when she attended a hearing in the divorce proceedings between herself and the boy’s father.

Terri Horman, who is living with her parents in Roseburg, declined to speak with reporters at a Multnomah County courthouse. Her husband, Kaine Horman, did not attend the hearing.

Terri Horman took Kyron Horman to school on June 4, the day he vanished, and was the last known person to see him.

Kaine Horman filed for divorce weeks later, saying investigators gave him reason to believe that Terri Horman was involved in the disappearance. The Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office has not publicly named her as a suspect or person of interest.

A $3.4B reminder of state’s failure

T

he Obama administration divvied up $3.4 billion among nine states and the District of Columbia on Tuesday. These fortunate few won the second round of the president’s

“Race to the Top” competition, which has pushed states to consider such cutting-edge and controversial educational reforms as — get ready — evaluating teachers according to their effectiveness. Imagine that.

How did Oregon fare? The results contained some good news and some bad news for the Beaver State.

First, the good news: The Obama administration did not pass over Oregon in selecting Tuesday’s winners.

The bad news is the reason Oregon wasn’t passed over: The state had already quit. Gov. Ted Kulongoski pulled out of the competition back in May, stung by Oregon’s dismal performance in the competition’s first round and legitimately pessimistic about its chances in round two. Of the 41 applications graded by educational experts in round one, Oregon’s was judged the seventh-worst.

The real problem was not so much the application itself, but, rather, Oregon’s entrenched backwardness. In a May 4 letter to Education Secretary Arne Duncan, Kulongoski acknowledged that the “aspirational goals” — also known as wishful thinking — contained in the state’s application “are not enough.” So, instead of remaining in an unwinnable competition, the governor “concluded that the best use of our resources and expertise right now is to address the underlying issues that are serving as barriers to K-12 reforms.”

The governor singled out two areas for work: “demonstrating success on improving low-performing schools and using student growth data to help evaluate teacher and administrator performance.” Though school reformers and the Obama administration believe it’s important to evaluate teachers according to their effectiveness, the issue is radioactive to the Oregon Education Association, the state’s largest teachers union and its most significant barrier to reform.

The OEA’s agenda and demeanor weren’t missed by the experts who reviewed the state’s Race to the Top application. They noted that the union’s letter of support emphasizes some of the ways the application furthers what the OEA calls its “core beliefs” rather than educational reform. For instance, the union wrote, the application contains “no mention of merit pay, or pay for performance, nor is there any mention of using student test scores for transfer, assignment or dismissal.” But even though “Oregon’s practices and programs may not align with the federal guidelines, we think the success of many of Oregon’s schools, districts and communities makes a case for the grant.”

That may have prompted a few laughs in Washington, but it certainly didn’t in Oregon. The OEA’s letter, in fact, helped deprive the state of Race to the Top dollars. As one reviewer not-

Oregonians who want their tax dollars to go further and their schools to operate more effectively should vote for people who’ll represent their interests as zealously as the Oregon Education Association represents its members’. ed, “Teacher union buy-in is extremely important to the effective implementation of several of the RTTT goals, especially the implementation of new standards, curriculum, and assessments, and the development of performance-based teacher compensation structures.”

The OEA’s core beliefs and its clout still matter, months after Oregon’s humiliating withdrawal from the federal competition, because the governor has pledged to pursue reform even in the absence of a federal grant. To that end, he wrote in May, he’ll assign an expert panel to “develop a menu of K-12 reforms (sic) options to be translated by legislative leaders into an actual K-12 Reform Agenda for the 2011 Legislative Session.”

The 14-member panel is expected to meet for the first time late this month, according to Anna Richter Taylor, the governor’s communications director.

Like many Oregonians, we can’t wait to see what ends up on the group’s menu — and whether, in fact, the next governor supports the results as enthusiastically as Kulongoski has supported the work of his Reset Cabinet.

The two efforts are related, after all. The Reset Cabinet recommended various strategies for making government services affordable. And generally speaking, the kinds of reforms supported by the Race to the Top competition make one extremely important government service — public education — function more efficiently. Especially when money’s tight, it makes good sense to keep the best teachers in the classroom and usher the worst out the door.

But as is so often the case, the path to affordability and efficiency runs through the House, Senate and governor’s office. For that reason, Oregonians who want their tax dollars to go further and their schools to operate more effectively should vote for people who’ll represent their interests as zealously as the OEA represents its members’. In just two months, they’ll have a chance to do so.

My Nickel’s Worth He’s no enemy After reading the letter from Charlie Ringo (“Real enemies of America,” Aug. 10), we could not let it go unanswered. Ringo can spew hatred toward Fox News and Rush Limbaugh, as most far-left haters do, but he knows nothing about letter writer Keith Sime, and we do.

Col. Keith Sime is a retired Marine fighter pilot with a degree in engineering. He proudly served his country in Vietnam and had over 25 years’ active duty. He is a devoted husband, father, grandfather and friend. He serves his community with tireless energy. You cannot find a finer and more decent, honorable man.

If Ringo actually watched Fox News, he would know that it regularly has commentators from the left to offer balanced opinions, and it covers news that the other networks won’t.

Most from the far left who spew their hatred of Fox News have never watched it. They get their “talking points” from such esteemed sources as the Huffington Post.

We found at least five other sources referencing the Jones Act and the impact on the cleanup of the oil spill — Christian Science Monitor, etc.

Most Americans we know hate what this president is doing to our country and his view of the world, and not him personally.

Before calling a patriot “a real enemy of America,” Ringo should check

his facts. The real enemy is the lack of honest coverage by the mainstream media.

Slow but inclusive We members of the Oregon Geographic Names Board enjoyed your Aug. 7 editorial on our nine-year effort to get the state’s “squaw” names off the map.

In our care to do a good job on Oregon’s place names, we sometimes move at glacial speed, but we have never actually been “clocked” before. By your count, 4.1 squaw name changes per year. To be fair, we also have other names on our docket annually, but we appreciate the math.

Just so your readers know, we do not create names, but wait for proposals to come to us. In the case of names offered by Oregon tribes, many have multiple languages, so you can imagine the discussions that take place on a single name, such as Whychus Creek in Sisters.

Because we draw the community into the process, we seek comment from county commissioners and local historical societies on each name proposal.

Right now more than nine names await word from local authorities.

The big news is that the week your editorial appeared, the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reser-

vation presented a list of 44 names to eliminate the word “squaw” on creeks and other features in Baker, Grant, Harney, Morrow, Union, Wallowa and Malheur counties.

I can’t promise how quickly that will happen (our 25-member, all-volunteer board of historians, cartographers, geographers and journalists relishes discussion) but once we accomplish that list, clock us again and see if our time improves.

Sharon Nesbit President, Oregon Geographic Names Board

Limit jobless benefits In these troubled times, almost everyone has a friend or relative who has lost a job. Most are depending on unemployment benefits.

I have a friend who lost her job and is drawing $500 a week, which adds up to $26,000 a year.

Many years ago, when I lost my job, I could only draw $45 a week. And at the end of six weeks I could draw no more benefits, whether or not I had a job by then.

At the present time, I feel that no one should be able to receive benefits any longer than six months under any circumstances.

Is there any wonder why the state and federal governments are going broke?

Stop waiting for Superman to save public education W THOMAS hile Washington is consumed with whether our president is secretly a Muslim, or born abroad, possibly in outer space, I’d like to talk about some good news. But to see it, you have to stand on your head.

You have to look at America from the bottom up, not from the top (Washington) down. And what you’ll see from down there is that there is a movement stirring in this country around education. From the explosion of new charter schools to the new teachers union contract in D.C., which will richly reward public school teachers who get their students to improve faster and weed out those who don’t, Americans are finally taking their education crisis seriously.

If you don’t want to stand on your head, then just go to a theater near you after Sept. 24 and watch the new documentary “Waiting for Superman.” You’ll see just what I’m talking about.

Directed by Davis Guggenheim, who also directed Al Gore’s “An Inconvenient Truth,” “Waiting for Superman” takes its name from an opening interview with the remarkable Geoffrey Canada, founder of the Harlem Children’s Zone.

HCZ has used a comprehensive strategy, including a prenatal Baby College, social service programs and longer days at its charter schools, to forge a new highway to the future for one of New York’s bleakest neighborhoods.

Canada’s point is that the only way to fix our schools is not with a Superman or a super-theory. No, it’s with supermen and superwomen pushing super-hard to assemble what we know works: bettertrained teachers working with the best methods under the best principals supported by more involved parents.

“One of the saddest days of my life was when my mother told me Superman did not exist,” Canada says in the film. “I read comic books and I just loved ’em ...’cause even in the depths of the ghetto you just thought, ‘He’s coming, I just don’t know when, because he always shows up and he saves all the good people.’ ” Then when he was in fourth or fifth grade, he asked, “Ma, do you think Superman is actually (real)?” She told him the truth: “ ‘Superman is not real.’ I was like: ‘He’s not? What do you mean he’s not?’ ‘No, he’s not real.’ And she thought I was crying because it’s like Santa

FRIEDMAN Claus is not real. And I was crying because there was no one ... coming with enough power to save us.”

“Waiting for Superman” follows five kids and their parents who aspire to obtain a decent public education but have to enter a bingo-like lottery to get into a good charter school, because their home schools are miserable failures.

Guggenheim kicks off the film explaining that he was all for sending kids to their local public schools until “it was time to choose a school for my own children, and then reality set in. My feelings about public education didn’t matter as much as my fear of sending them to a failing school. And so every morning, betraying the ideals I thought I lived by, I drive past three public schools as I take my kids to a private school. But I’m

lucky. I have a choice. Other families pin their hopes to a bouncing ball, a hand pulling a card from a box or a computer that generates numbers in random sequence. Because when there’s a great public school there aren’t enough spaces, and so we do what’s fair. We place our children and their future in the hands of luck.”

It is intolerable that in America today a bouncing bingo ball should determine a kid’s educational future, especially when there are plenty of schools that work and even more that are getting better. This movie is about the people trying to change that. The film’s core thesis is that for too long our public school system was built to serve adults, not kids. For too long we underpaid and undervalued our teachers and compensated them instead by giving them union perks. Over decades, though, those perks accumulated to prevent reform in too many districts. The best ones are now reforming, and the worst are facing challenges from charters.

Although the movie makes the claim that the key to student achievement is putting a great teacher in every class-

room, and it is critical of the teachers unions and supportive of charters, it challenges all the adults who run our schools — teachers, union leaders, principals, parents, school boards, charter founders, politicians — with one question: Are you putting kids and their education first?

Because we know what works, and it’s not a miracle cure. It is the whatever-ittakes-tenacity of the Geoffrey Canadas; it is the no-excuses-seriousness of the KIPP school (Knowledge is Power Program) founders; it is the lead-follow-orget-out-of-the-way ferocity of the Washington and New York City school chancellors, Michelle Rhee and Joel Klein.

And it is the quiet heroism of millions of public and charter school teachers and parents who do put kids first by implementing the best ideas, and in so doing make their schools just a little bit better and more accountable every day — so no Americans ever again have to play life bingo with their kids, or pray to be rescued by Superman.

George David Weiss wrote ‘What a Wonderful World’

By Dennis McLellan Los Angeles Times

George David Weiss, a prolific songwriter who co-wrote “Can’t Help Falling in Love,” “What a Wonderful World,” “The Lion Sleeps Tonight” and many other pop hits, has died. He was 89.

Weiss, a former longtime president of the Songwriters Guild of America, died Monday of natural causes at his home in Oldwick, N.J., the Associated Press reported.

During his heyday in the George David 1940s, ’50s and ’60s, Weiss Weiss cowrote songs that were recorded by singers such as Frank Sinatra (“Oh! What It Seemed to Be”), Perry Como (“Surrender”), Patti Page (“Confess”), Kay Starr (“Wheel of Fortune”), Ella Fitzgerald (“Lullaby of Birdland”) and Nat “King” Cole (“That Sunday, That Summer”).

“Can’t Help Falling in Love,” with words and music

by Weiss, Hugo Peretti and Luigi Creatore, was written for the 1961 Elvis Presley movie “Blue Hawaii.” It became a big hit for Presley, who regularly sang the ballad in his later stage shows.

Weiss, Peretti and Creatore also shared credit on the 1961 song “The Lion Sleeps Tonight,” which became a No. 1 hit for the Tokens.

The song was based on a 1939 South African hit called “Mbube” (Zulu for “Lion”)

by Solomon Linda and performed by his group. In 1952, the American folk group the Weavers released an adapted version of the song entitled “Wimoweh.”

Weiss teamed with Bob Thiele to write “What a Wonderful World,” which was recorded by Louis Armstrong in 1967 and later featured in the 1987 Robin Williams movie “Good Morning, Vietnam.”

Weiss also collaborated on three Broadway musicals, including the 1956 hit “Mr. Wonderful,” which starred Sammy Davis Jr. and featured the title song and “Too Close for Comfort.”

Saxbe was attorney general during Watergate inquiry Ex-U.S. senator also known for overseeing key antitrust lawsuit

By Anahad O’Connor New York Times News Service

William Saxbe, a former U.S. senator from Ohio who was appointed as President Richard Nixon’s fourth attorney general after the infamous “Saturday Night Massacre,” died Tuesday at his home in Mechanicsburg, Ohio. He was 94 and had been in failing health for some time, said his son Charles Saxbe.

Saxbe was an unlikely pick for attorney general, a oneterm Republican senator who had frequently criticized Nixon, at one time saying that the president had “lost his senses” with his decision to bomb North Vietnamese cities.

But Saxbe, after a fairly quick confirmation, would go on to handle the delicate Watergate controversy that led to Nixon’s resignation and oversee an important antitrust suit that ultimately broke the Bell System telephone monopoly.

Number four Saxbe took over as attorney general in early January 1974, when the Nixon administration was consumed by crisis.

Nixon’s first attorney general, John Mitchell, was accused and later convicted of crimes related to Watergate. His second, Richard Kleindienst, resigned and later pleaded guilty in a peripheral matter. The third, Elliot Richardson, resigned on that Saturday night, Oct. 20, 1973, when he refused to follow Nixon’s order to fire the Watergate special prosecutor, Archibald Cox, who had just subpoenaed the president, seeking taped conversations.

When Richardson refused the order, the president gave the order to the deputy attorney general, who also refused and resigned in protest. The next person in line, the solicitor general, Robert Bork, complied with the president’s order, firing Cox. According to his chief of staff, Alexander Haig, the president was desperate for a replacement whose nomination would go smoothly, and he eventually settled on Saxbe.

An outspoken, tobacco-chew-

The Associated Press file photo

U.S. Attorney General William Saxbe listens to a question during an interview in his Washington office on Jan. 16, 1975. Saxbe, the fourth attorney general in Richard Nixon’s administration who served during the investigation of the Watergate break-in, died Tuesday at age 94. ing senator from central Ohio, Saxbe was known to go against his own party when it suited him, including ridiculing the Nixon administration several times.

Eleven days after the “massacre,” Saxbe drove up to the front of the White House in his Cadillac convertible for a meeting with the president.

“Nixon was so friendly I thought he was going to hug me,” Saxbe said in his 2000 autobiography, “I’ve Seen the Elephant.”

“Some of his advisers thought I shouldn’t be nominated because of remarks the administration found abrasive. ‘Mr. President, I am afraid you will have to take me, warts and all,’ I said.”

When the Senate voted in December, it took less than 20 minutes to confirm Saxbe’s nomination.

Under fire For the most part, Saxbe’s relationship with Nixon was amicable in the months before the president’s resignation in 1974.

But Saxbe would later rail against the president for “wrecking” the Republican Party, and he claimed he never forgave him for his lies.

As attorney general, Saxbe’s outspokenness would get him into trouble on more than one occasion, including when he publicly referred to Patricia Hearst — the newspaper heiress kidnapped by the Symbionese Liberation Army — as a “common criminal” for participating in a bank robbery led by the group. Saxbe was criticized for defying the legal code of conduct because Hearst had not been charged with a crime at the time.

Saxbe repaired some of the

damage to his image with a 1974 antitrust lawsuit that eventually dismantled the American Telephone and Telegraph Co. into a half-dozen companies. After Gerald Ford became president, Saxbe continued as attorney general for several months before stepping down in early 1975, when he was appointed ambassador to India. He served until 1977, before returning to his hometown, Mechanicsburg, to go into private law.

Personal life Born on June 24, 1916, William Bart Saxbe earned his bachelor’s and law degrees at Ohio State University. He began his political career while still in law school, winning a seat in the Ohio House of Representatives in 1946. In 1953, he became speaker of the Ohio House, then moved on to the Ohio attorney general’s office and eventually, in 1968, the U.S. Senate.

Saxbe met his wife, Ardath Saxbe, known as Dolly, while the two were college students. At first just acquaintances, he recalled in his book, their relationship blossomed after Saxbe, never one to be shy, made a characteristically bold statement.

“On our way to class I asked her, ‘Do you like to neck?’ and she said ‘Yea.’ I’ll never forget it: I kissed her right in the middle of the Oval, the big common in the center of the campus.”

Besides his son Charles, of Columbus, Ohio, Saxbe is survived by his wife; a daughter, Juli Spitzer of Jackson Hole, Wyo.; another son, Dr. William Saxbe, of Williamstown, Mass.; nine grandchildren; and four great-grandchildren.

G. PHILLIP WICK FORMER PRESIDENT AND CEO OF LES SCHWAB TIRE CENTERS LEAVES LEGACY OF SUCCESS AND FRIENDSHIP

Phillip Wick was born on July 29, 1944, in Puyallup, Washington to Lester and Elvina Wick. He passed away to our maker on August 17, 2010, of natural causes.

Phil was raised in Central Oregon and went to elementary school in Alfalfa. He graduated from the 8th grade with two other classmates. At Redmond High School he continued to excel at sports as a member of the football, basketball and track teams. He went on to play football at Eastern Oregon University and continued his studies at Central Oregon Community College.

Phil met the love of his life, Lesley, and married her in 1965. Together they raised a family and were blessed with a son, Jeff and a daughter, Heather.

Phil began his career at the age of 21 in Bend, Oregon. When Phil started with the Les Schwab Company there were only 7 stores. Now there are over 400 stores in 8 states. He became the youngest store manager in Les Schwab history at age 24 in Walla Walla, Washington. From there he worked his way up into numerous management positions before Les brought him to the main office in 1980. Phil became president in 1983 and with Les and Phil at the helm, the years were prosperous and memorable. Phil had the opportunity to work side-by-side Les Schwab for over 23 years in which Les treated him as a son. Phil and Les found common ground in their personalities as they worked with people and strove to create a business model that catered to customer service. They implemented programs to help their fellow employees and made numerous generous contributions to the communities they worked in all over the Northwest.

Phil was an avid hunter and fisherman. He enjoyed hunting and fishing with his grandsons in particular and had many opportunities to do the same with friends. During the summer months, he enjoyed golfing every week.

Since retiring in January of 2009, he was able to accomplish much traveling with his wife and close friends. They traveled to numerous places and enjoyed seeing the world.

Continued from C1 With no designated rugby fields in Bend, the club has played on soccer fields.

Burke said a regulation rugby field is bigger than most soccer fields, up to 75 meters wide and 100 meters from goal line to goal line, with another 10- to 20-meter-long “dead zone” behind each goal line. Most often, players find themselves at the Skyline or Big Sky sports complexes.

“We can get by with a soccer field, but it would nice to have a field that’s regulation with permanent posts,” he said.

Burke said he’d like to see a regulation-sized rugby field where the rugby club would have first priority during the hours it wants for games and practices.

John Sullivan, the technical director for the Oregon Rush soccer club, said the soccer field shortage in Bend is “dire.”

With 900 players, Oregon Rush teams often end up playing on worn-out fields at elementary schools and in neighborhood parks, he said, and could easily use the additional five fields proposed in the current version of the Pine Nursery master plan seven days a week through November.

Sullivan said a park the size of Pine Nursery could easily accommodate 15 to 20 soccer fields, which could provide space for area teams and allow Bend

Continued from C1 Right now, documentation shows, there are eight camp trailers, 11 buildings, three covered patio areas, five decks, 11 docks and five retaining walls that are illegally on the approximately 57-acre parcel.

Skidmore said there is paperwork showing buildings being flagged as out of compliance as far back as 1996.

The landowners maintain they would leave the property the way it is now, but they agreed to the fishing accommodations because it’s an allowable use in a forest management zone.

Opponents, however, are worried that allowing the property owners to build 15 fishing accommodations or guest rooms not only further violates the land use laws but also sets a dangerous precedent that could threaten other Oregon waterways.

In the middle is the county Planning Department, which has been working with the property owners to find a permissible way to use the land for recreation.

Schools Continued from C1 The clinic will be run by Deschutes County, but if it is to open on time, the board had to find a way to fund its construction.

The Redmond High clinic will be the first school-based clinic aimed primarily at high school students in the county.

The district already owns several portable buildings, and it will use one of those as the Redmond High clinic. The board approved a $150,000 budget to renovate one

Joan Heaton, 82, of Bend, flies her kite at Pine Nursery Park’s grand opening earlier this month. On Wednesday, the Bend Park & Recreation District heard residents’ ideas for additional features at the new park, including horseshoe pits and a disc golf course. to host major tournaments. Durable artificial turf fields and additional field lighting could also go a long way toward alleviating the squeeze, he said.

“Everyone wants those magic hours from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m.,” Sullivan said. “But older kids can practice later, and when you get good facilities, people are willing to train later to have access to

of the portables, move it to the school and extend utilities to it.

“This is starting from scratch,” Snyder said.

Board member Richard Little cast the only dissenting vote during the meeting. He believed that if the board was going to approve the concession area, it should go ahead and build bleachers at the football field.

The total cost of such a project would be around $2 million.

“I just feel the district did such a good job in saving money,” Little said. “I’d like to see bleachers at the same standard. I would vote

them and a consistent schedule.”

Ronning said the park district is planning additional community meetings, and should have a proposed master plan ready for its board of directors to consider around the end of the year.

for doing the job right, finishing it.”

The board, though, decided to hold off on approving that spending. The task force could consider recommending that construction or spend the money in other ways, board member Paul Rodby said.

“They’re going to tell us what they want to do,” Rodby said of the task force. “Maybe a stadium is one of the things they can discuss.”

the property 35 years ago. Virginia Pugh, of Madras, said one of the decks she built was tagged by the Planning Department staff years ago, and she intended to work with staff to fix the problem.

“I talked to (a former planning employee) after receiving that red tag, and I asked, ‘Should I take that out?’ and she told me, ‘Oh no, we’ll work with you,’” Pugh said. “So, I left my name and number and that was all.

Not another word.

“About 23 years ago, we were given the opportunity to join Montgomery Shores, at this time it was zoned forest management, and one of the uses was to provide recreational opportunities, like boating, skiing and camping — and especially fishing, one of my husband’s favorite pastimes … We’re in our 70s, with a lot of family, and we just want to enjoy our campsite at Lake Billy Chinook.”

Opinions differ Jefferson County staff is proposing that all development on the property be removed and accommodations of 350 square feet or less be allowed.

Zoning laws permit fishing accommodations with guest rooms on the land. But what is considered a guest room and an accommodation versus a singledwelling unit is in dispute.

do not agree with the planning staff’s recommendation of building small cabins and clustering them on one side of the property.

Central Oregon LandWatch lawyer Paul Dewey, who is opposing the development, along with the Friends of the Metolius and the Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs, warned commissioners Monday that allowing this plan to go forward could set a dangerous precedent throughout the state.

A bad precedent?

The code, he said, was meant to be a narrow exception to allow fishing accommodations under forest managementzoned land. It is not meant to be a second home or cabins for people to live in half the year, he said; it is meant for guests.

“Anyone who owns property on the Metolius, the Rogue, the McKenzie, the Umpqua (Rivers) could put 15 cabins on their property under this rationale, and the owners could use it for themselves,” Dewey said. “You could have so much more development along rivers in Oregon.”

The Jefferson County commissioners are scheduled to discuss the issue again at their Wednesday meeting.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL Prime parking spot at Reser Stadium is up for auction A season permit for football game-day parking in an area directly adjacent to Oregon State University’s Reser Stadium is being put up for online auction by the Central Oregon Beaver Athletic Student Fund.

According to Carol Connolly, president of the Central Oregon BASF, the permit up for bid is for a parking space located between the Valley Football Center and the Truax Indoor Center — an area for which parking passes are otherwise available only by making a $4,500 donation to BASF. Starting bid for the permit up for auction is set at $700 (the amount of the winning bid for a similar Central Oregon BASF auction last year). The “buy-it-now” price — which will secure the permit and end the auction — is set at $1,400.

Auction participants will bid in a sealed bid format, and the highest bid submitted by 6 p.m. on Monday, Sept. 6, will be the winning bidder.

Bidders may submit an unlimited number of bids.

The Central Oregon BASF will accept only cash or a certified check in payment from the winning bidder.

To bid, e-mail to beaverbeliever@crestviewcable. com and include the bidder’s name, evening phone number and evening e-mail address, and the amount of the bid. The winning bidder will be notified via e-mail or telephone after 6 p.m. on Sept. 6.

Funds raised by the auction will be part of the local BASF’s annual donation to the OSU BASF. For more information, contact Carol Connolly at beaverbeliever@crestviewcable.com or at 541-4104094.

LOCAL GOLF Bend pro Kearney finishes second at Northwest Open WALLA WALLA, Wash.

— Bend pro golfer Brandon Kearney finished in a tie for second place Wednesday at the Northwest Open Invitational.

Kearney, a 30-year-old assistant golf pro at Bend Golf and Country Club, shot a 1-under-par 71 for the final round at Wine Valley Golf Club to finish the 54-hole tournament at 11 under.

But Brian Thornton, a professional from Kent, Wash., shot a 6-under 66 Wednesday to come from behind and win the tournament. The Northwest Open is a major tournament each year in the PGA of America’s Pacific Northwest section.

Kearney, who tied with Washington amateur Michael Haack, has been playing well recently. He beat a field of the Pacific Northwest’s top assistant golf pros earlier this month at the Callaway Golf PGA Assistants Championship, and he finished in second place at July’s Rosauer’s Open, another Pacific Northwest major tournament.

Kearney earned $4,000 for his second-place finish at the Northwest Open.

Street skateboarding goes big with tour

By Bernie Wilson The Associated Press

Street skateboarding is going big league.

Rob Dyrdek, the street skater turned MTV star, is launching his Street League Skateboarding on Saturday at Jobing.com Arena in Glendale, Ariz., the first of three contests that will pay a total of $1.2 million in prize money.

The winner at each stop earns $150,000, the biggest prize in skateboarding.

“That’s a great opportunity to shoot for,” said Paul Rodriguez, one of the

world’s top 24 skateboarders who’ve signed on. “It would be nice to come across that once or twice.”

Other top skaters competing will be Chris Cole, Ryan Sheckler, Nyjah Huston, Torey Pudwill, Eric Koston and Mike Mo Capaldi.

“For me, personally, I’ve always felt like it was even bigger than this,” Dyrdek said in a phone interview. “I love skateboarding so much and know how special it is, and I know how incredibly gifted these elite guys are. It’s just a matter of putting it in the proper package for the rest of the world to be-

come engaged and follow along. It’s just the beginning of the true emergence of street skateboarding into the mainstream.”

Contested on prefabricated concrete skate plazas set up in arenas, Street League will use instant scoring, a big change from most competitions that feature jam sessions where several skaters are doing tricks at the same time.

The other stops on what will be called the DC Pro Tour fueled by

Monster Energy will be in Ontario, Calif., on Sept. 11 and Las Vegas on Sept.

Archers take to the woods Bowhunting season starts Saturday, and the forecast is positive for areas of Central Oregon

By Mark Morical The Bulletin

Few would argue that bowhunting is more challenging than rifle hunting. But archers do have some advantages, such as warmer weather and a longer season.

The 2010 general bowhunting season begins this Saturday in Oregon, and more and more hunters are taking to the woods with their bows in late August and September, before the rifle seasons of October and November.

“I think a lot more people are going to the woods (to bowhunt) as a cheaper vacation,” Bob Kinyon, president of the

South African 800-meter runner Caster Semenya.

Markus Schreiber / The Associated Press

Bend Bowmen Archery Club, said this week. “The advantage is the time of the year. The challenge is getting closer (to the deer or elk). Besides that, I just like being in the woods this time of year. As a kid, I remember how cold it was during rifle season.”

While rifle seasons are generally two weeks or less, bowhunters have four weeks to bag their prey (the season ends Sept. 26). But the archers must get much closer to the animal for a proper kill shot.

A mild winter and an extended spring were positives for deer and elk herds in Central Oregon, according to biologists

with the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife.

Prospects are bright for big-game archery hunters in the Ochoco District.

“I think the deer season will be very comparable to last year, maybe slightly better,” Brian Ferry, a Prineville-based wildlife biologist for the ODFW, said this week. “The composition (of the herds) is good, and populations are stable and showed a slight increase.”

Ferry added that the wet spring weather that extended well into June provided more water for animals, helping more deer and elk survive through the summer.

The biologist said that of the three wildlife management units in the Prineville area — Maury, Ochoco and Grizzly — the Maury lags behind in overall deer

numbers. The Maury is now a controlled unit for deer rather than general season, meaning hunters need a controlled-hunt tag specific to the Maury Unit to hunt deer there.

“There are significantly fewer tags in the Maury Unit, both archery and rifle,” Ferry said. “It’s a little more challenging, whether with a bow or a rifle. And it’s a good-sized unit. It’s a more wide-open unit, with not as much timber.”

The Maury Unit has an estimated 16 bucks per 100 does, according to Ferry.

But through the Mule Deer Initiative — a program started in 2009 to address the decline of mule deer populations in Oregon — the ODFW is trying to get that number up to 20 bucks — thus the reduction in tags, Ferry explained.

Silence on South African 800-meter runner opens the door to ignorance

By John Leicester The Associated Press

PARIS — appily, Caster Semenya is racing again. About time, too. But the 800-meter world champion cannot outrun the questions, some of them legitimate, about how and why medical experts cleared her to compete as a woman.

The decision by track and field’s governing body, the IAAF, to give out nothing more than a terse, uninformative 56-word statement announcing the end of Semenya’s nearly yearlong gender-testing ordeal increasingly looks like a mistake.

It respected Semenya’s privacy, but it was too short to stop tongues wagging. Although Semenya has competed sparingly since her ban was lifted in July — Semenya’s fourth race will be this Friday in Brussels,

H

T R AC K & F I E L D : C O M M E N TA RY Belgium — the drumbeat of “she’s half a man” is starting up again and could get louder as her times improve, as they surely will as she returns to peak form. Such whispers are wrong, ugly and uncharitable, but they also are not surprising given how poorly this saga has been handled from the start and how little effort authorities have made to dispel the misunderstandings about Semenya’s case.

Kept in the dark, competitors lining up against and being beaten again by Semenya have been left to make uninformed guesses about the gender-testing process she was subjected to. Saying simply that doctors concluded that she can compete, as the IAAF did, is not enough. Its silence and brush-offs from Semenya about what, if anything, doctors prescribed to enable her to compete again is keeping the door open for the

type of intolerable ignorance voiced this past weekend by Diane Cummins. The Canadian runner should be made to wash out her mouth with soap for her stupid insensitivity.

“Is she man, is she lady?” Cummins complained to the Daily Telegraph of London after she finished 1.21 seconds behind Semenya in Berlin on Sunday.

“Even if she is a female, she’s on the very fringe of the normal athlete female biological composition from what I understand of hormone testing. So, from that perspective, most of us just feel that we are literally running against a man,” the newspaper quoted Cummins as saying.

Clearly, Cummins doesn’t get it. That means other, more diplomatic competitors likely don’t, too.

Called on to pinch hit, Campos had Waipahu’s only hit with a game-tying three-run homer in the fourth in the West region champs’ 6-4 victory Wednesday. Two runs later he scored on a hit batter and wild pitch. Hawaii faces a must-win game today against Georgia to stay alive for a berth in the U.S. final.

The Henderson police affidavit released Wednesday says investigators searched the Mercedes-Benz of Dr. Thomas Hess and found the note and Xanax pills obtained in Mexico. The 43-year-old doctor was arrested Tuesday for misdemeanor obstruction of justice. Hess told investigators the note and pills were on Blasberg’s bed stand and he hid them so her parents wouldn’t think she took pills and killed herself.

LaJoie, who was also an ESPN analyst, was suspended by the network following his suspension. He had been randomly drug tested by NASCAR because he applied for a license to become a spotter for one of Joe Gibbs Racing’s Nationwide Series teams.

The magazine released its annual ranking of NFL team values Wednesday, and it found larger-market teams have weathered the rough economy far better than their smaller counterparts. Overall, the average value decreased 2 percent from last year to $1.022 billion. The Dallas Cowboys remained the league’s richest team, and widened the gap between themselves and the rest of the NFL. They’re now worth $1.805 billion, their value increasing a league-best 9 percent. On the other end of the spectrum was Jacksonville. The struggling Jaguars lost 16 percent of their value to fall to last place at $725 million. The St. Louis Rams lost 15 percent of their value and the Buffalo Bills 12 percent.

Caroline Wozniacki lunges for a forehand during her 6-4, 6-1 victory over Dominika Cibulkova at the Pilot Pen tennis tournament in New Haven, Conn., on Wednesday.

Wozniacki wins opener

By Pat Eaton-Robb The Ass oc i at e d Press

NEW HAVEN, Conn. — U.S. Open top-seed Caroline Wozniacki got a little help from the entire Yale football team Wednesday as she cruised to a 6-4, 6-1 win over Dominika Cibulkova at the Pilot Pen tournament.

Wozniacki, who won in Montreal on Monday and is this tournament’s two-time defending champion, has a special relationship with the team. She took time last year to visit a Yale practice and talked to the players about mental toughness.

They responded this year by appearing en masse, in their jerseys at her opening match.

“They are really nice guys, and that they all came and supported me today was just fun,” she said.

“We should make this a tradition.”

Wozniacki got off to a rough start, and was down 4-3 in the first set. In between games, she got some treatment for a stiff back and responded by giving up just two points the rest of the set.

“I was telling myself, ‘I want to play, move your feet, come on let’s

go,’ ” Wozniacki said. “We don’t want to play three sets of course, I want to win in two.”

It didn’t hurt, she said, to have about 80 good looking guys yelling for her.

“We’ve kind of adopted her as our professional women’s tennis player, and hopefully we’re her American college football team,” Yale coach Tom Williams said.

Wozniacki plays Italian Flavia Pennetta in the quarterfinals.

Pennetta advanced with a 6-3, 6-2 win over Olga Govortsova of Bellarus. If Wozniacki wins today, she will clinch the U.S. Open Series championship.

In other matches, Russian Elena Dementieva moved into the quarterfinals with a 7-6 (4), 6-7 (5), 6-4 win over Kateryna Bondarenko of Ukraine.

Dementieva, who is ranked No. 13 in the world, has dropped out of the top 10 for the first time since 2008.

She said she spent four weeks in bed after tearing her left calf muscle in June during the French Open, and it has taken her some time to feel comfortable on the U.S. hard courts.

“I expected to play summer matches to get my confidence back, and just to feel the surface” she said. “Unfortunately, I was not able to do so.”

She had plenty of time on the surface Wednesday, playing for just over three hours in a back-andforth contest that featured 13 service breaks.

She will face Marion Bartoli next.

Bartoli beat Anastasia Rodionova 6-3, 6-1 on Wednesday.

Nadia Petrova, playing her second straight match on the grandstand court, beat Bethanie Mattek-Sands in straight sets, 6-3, 6-3.

She will face Australian Samantha Stosur in the quarterfinals.

“I’m getting to that stage when I get really confident and feeling ready for the Open,” Petrova said.

Russian Dinara Safina needed two tiebreakers to get by Daniela Hantuchova 7-6 (4), 7-6 (2).

In the men’s draw, top seed Marcos Baghdatis needed three sets to beat Juan Ignacio Chela and earn a quarterfinal berth.

James Blake lost his secondround match in straight sets to Russian Alexandr Dolgopolov 6-4, 6-2.

Four months and two losses after winning the Kentucky Derby, Super Saver has been relegated to a 6-1 co-third betting choice for Saturday’s $1 million Travers Stakes at Saratoga Race Course.

Jim Dandy Stakes winner A Little Warm is the lukewarm 7-2 favorite, with Trappe Shot at 4-1 and Afleet Express also at 6-1 in a field of 11 3-year-olds.

Favorite or not, the racing manager for Super Saver’s owners says it’s time for the Derby winner to show he can return to the winner’s circle.

“He’s got to step up,” WinStar Farms’ Elliott Walden said at Wednesday’s post position draw.

“We’ll let him do the talking. He’s set up to run very, very well.”

Super Saver ran eighth in the Preakness two weeks after the Derby, then finished fourth in the Haskell Invitational at Monmouth Park on Aug. 1.

“The second race off the layoff is typically his best,” Walden said. “We hope he learned something off the Haskell and will have a good race.”

Super Saver drew the outside No. 11 post for the 1 1⁄4-mile “Midsummer Derby,” and will be ridden by Calvin Borel.

“Sometimes, the No. 11 might be a little further out than you’d ideally like, but I think at 1¼ miles it’s OK,” Super Saver’s trainer Todd Pletcher said. “You get a decent run to the first turn, so Calvin should have the option to kind of survey everything inside him.”

Lookin At Lucky won’t be there. The Preakness and Haskell winner, and the leader in the 3-year-old division, isn’t running and that has created a wide-open field for the 141st running of the Travers Stakes.

NFL is moving forward with 18-game season

Ochocinco tweets apology for in-game tweeting

By Paul Newberry The Associated Press

By Joe Kay The Associated Press

CINCINNATI — Chad Ochocinco has apologized for his costly tweets.

The NFL fined the Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver $25,000 on Tuesday for violating its restrictions on using social media sites before, during and after games. He’s the first player disciplined under the policy adopted one year ago.

He wouldn’t discuss the fine with reporters on Wednesday, but addressed it on his Twitter account, where he apologized to commissioner Roger Goodell.

“Dad again I apologize 2 you for my tweet, as my father I understand you’ve to discipline, can we try timeout next time please :)” he tweeted before practice.

In an earlier posting, he apologized to the league and said he wouldn’t do it again. He also noted that it was the first time his tweeting had cost him money.

The NFL adopted a policy last August allowing players to use social Chad media net- Ochocinco works, but not around game time. Players, coaches and football operations employees can use Twitter, Facebook and other social media up to 90 minutes before kickoff, and again when traditional media interviews are finished after the game.

They’re not allowed to use cell phones, computers or other electronic equipment during the restricted time.

Ochocinco met some of the Philadelphia Eagles during warmups before their preseason game on Friday night in Cincinnati. He then tweeted the names of players he met and added, “I love prw-game warm up.” The message was posted less than 90 minutes before kickoff.

Ochocinco played the first half along with the other Bengals regulars and got his helmet knocked off after he was hit while trying to make a catch.

When he was out of the game, he tweeted: “Man Im sick of getting hit like that, its the ... preseason ... 1day I’m gone jump up and start throwing hay makers.”

The flamboyant receiver has regularly tested the NFL’s restrictions during his 10-year career, resulting in an array of fines from the league.

Last season, he was fined $20,000 for taking a dollar bill onto the field as a pretend bribe while officials were reviewing one of his catches. He was fined $30,000 for donning a mock poncho and sombrero next to the bench following a touchdown catch in another game.

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Brett Favre, center, signals in the huddle in the first quarter of an NFL preseason football game against the San Francisco 49ers in San Francisco on Sunday.

Favre surrounded by new receivers again

By Jon Krawczynski The Associated Press

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. — One of the biggest reasons Brett Favre decided to return to the Minnesota Vikings this year was his familiarity with an offense that he enjoyed being around so much in 2009.

Suddenly, in some ways, Favre feels like he’s starting all over again.

His two favorite targets — Sidney Rice and Percy Harvin — have struggled with ailments throughout the preseason. Rice had hip surgery on Monday and likely will miss the first half of the regular season while Harvin has hardly practiced because of recurring migraines.

“Not a lot different than last year as far as chemistry is concerned,” Favre said Wednesday. “It would have been nice to come in and go to bat with the guys that we finished with last year, but that is part of football.

Every coach will say the same thing.

Regardless of who is put in there we have to play the same way.”

With Favre leading the way, the Vikings changed from a run-oriented offense in the first three years under coach Brad Childress into a pass-first unit that finished second in the league in scoring.

Vikings receivers caught 207 of the 377 passes completed last year, nearly all of which were thrown by Favre.

When Favre stepped into the huddle in San Francisco on Sunday night, Rice and Harvin were not even in the stadium, meaning 143 of last seaon’s receptions weren’t around.

Bernard Berrian (55 catches) and Greg Lewis (eight) are the only healthy receivers on this year’s roster who caught a pass from Favre in 2009.

Harvin did practice on Wednesday for the first time since a scary collapse last week brought on by migraines. He was taken from the field

in an ambulance, spent the night in the hospital and did not make the trip to San Francisco. His availability for Saturday night’s game against Seattle is in question.

The reigning rookie of the year forged a bond quickly with Favre last year, emerging as his security blanket on third down. Harvin missed one game in the regular season because of migraines and several practices in the playoffs as the Vikings marched to the NFC title game.

“Percy’s situation is kind of iffy,” Favre said. “We expect big things from him, bigger than last year. He has to take care of himself first.”

While Harvin dealt with the headaches last year, Rice’s need for surgery came as a surprise to nearly everyone. He was injured in the NFC title game loss to New Orleans, but said that doctors told him his hip would heal without surgery.

Rice posted an update on his blog on Wednesday, saying that he tweaked the injury during minicamp in June but still hoped to avoid surgery. But doctors told him on Monday that a new MRI showed “a problem that could shorten my career.”

“Once the doc got in there and checked everything out, he said having the surgery was the best move I could have made, so I don’t regret it now,” Rice wrote. “He said it could have been much worse if I would have tried to play on it during the season. He said it could have been my last year of playing football, so I know I made the right decision.”

Favre said he kept in contact with Rice, who led the team with 83 catches and 1,312 yards, while he spent the summer deciding whether he should come back for a 20th NFL season.

“I really felt like at some point here in training camp he would be able to go,” Favre said. “Obviously that’s not

the case. Probably like most people, I was pretty optimistic that he would be OK.” So Brett, if you knew Rice would be out so long, would you have come back?

“I don’t know that for certain because that obviously wasn’t the case,” Favre said. “It’s hard enough at 40 to play. You take a guy out that had roughly 90-something catches and was obviously pretty productive ... but there’s more guys on this team, too.”

Rice said he hopes to be back before the first half of the season ends.

There have been theories that he did not get the surgery because he was in the final year of his contract and was hoping to sign an extension, and Rice addressed that issue in his blog.

“It’s not my concern what people say about my contract, whatever happens, happens,” Rice wrote. “If the Vikings decide to give me an extension, that’s great. If not, life goes on. I’ll continue to work hard and do everything I can to be successful in what I’ve been doing my whole life, and that’s playing football.”

The Vikings scrambled this week to add depth to a receiving corps short on experience, signing veteran free agent Javon Walker on Tuesday and trading with the Dolphins for slot receiver Greg Camarillo on Wednesday.

Walker caught passes from Favre for four years in Green Bay, but he has just 41 receptions in the last three years combined in Denver and Oakland.

Camarillo has 105 receptions for 1,165 yards and two touchdowns over the last two years in Miami.

“Without Sidney, it sure makes it tougher,” Favre said. “But going into the season last year, no one expected the season that Sidney was going to have. So, maybe there’s another guy that can step up and do that.”

Is this a Pac-10 desert mirage in Arizona?

By Chris Dufresne Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES— ur tour of Pacific 10 Conference school focuses on desert landscapes.

Team A: The most valuable player on offense is the kicker, the three-headed quarterback situation remains unsettled, the offense is punchless but the defense is lights out — probably yours.

Does that sound like a team coached by offensive guru Dennis Erickson?

Team B: Defense got run over by Nebraska in the Holiday Bowl last season, loses seven starters and is the biggest question mark entering the 2010 season. The coach brought his star quarterback to Pac-10 media day and is excited at the prospect of producing points as fast as microwave popcorn.

Does that sound like a team coached by gang-tackle guru Mike Stoops?

Generalizations are always dangerous, but we can’t help but notice the football philosophies at Arizona State and Arizona seem upside down.

Erickson, entering his fourth, and most important, season in Tempe, built his reputation as one of the game’s offensive innovators. He is considered one of the early proponents of the spread offense, known in

O

his day as “Air Express,” with roots dating back to the late ’70s when he was offensive coordinator for Jack Elway at San Jose State.

Erickson took his spread to Idaho, Wyoming, Washington State, Miami and Oregon State. He won two national titles at Miami, with the Hurricanes running the spread before it had a name.

Yet, Erickson is 19-18 at Arizona State, is definitely on the hot seat as the team was picked to finish ninth despite having what many believe will be one of the top defenses in the nation. Arizona State led the Pac-10 in five defensive categories and boasts two ferocious talents in junior defensive tackle Lawrence Guy and sophomore linebacker Vontaze Burfict.

“We’ve got more depth than we’ve ever had on defense,” Erickson boasted at Pac-10 media day. “In our front four, we’re two deep about every place...three at some.”

Arizona State has posted consecutive losing seasons, though, primarily because of its inability to score.

“That’s not in my DNA, and it’s not in my players’ DNA,” Erickson said. “We know where we’re at. We know where we’re picked. We know exactly what we have to get done. ...what we have to do is win, period, end of story.”

Arizona State ranked ninth in total offense in the Pac-10 last year — thank goodness Washington State is

still in the league.

Erickson spent the year bemoaning the loss of star kicker, Thomas Weber, hobbled all year by a groin injury. Weber’s absence probably cost Arizona State in a heartbreaking 20-17 loss at Georgia.

“I know I’m going to be two deep at kicker from now on in my career,” Erickson says.

Arizona State’s offensive problems start with inconsistent play at quarterback, and Erickson has still not named his starter for the Sept. 4 opener against Portland State. The choices are Brock Osweiler, Samson Szakacsy and Steven Threet.

Erickson has hired Noel Mazzone, most recently at Auburn and Mississippi, as offensive coordinator with a mandate to put a charge into the scoreboard.

“We’re doing all the things that are happening in college football right now,” Erickson said.

Why did he wait until now?

Offense, conversely, should be the strength at Arizona, which returns every significant contributor except receiver Delashaun Dean, who transferred out in July after off-field trouble led to his suspension.

Arizona’s offense really started to click last year when Stoops switched quarterbacks after three games, with Nick Foles replacing Matt Scott. Foles earned honorable mention all-conference after passing for

2,486 yards and 19 touchdowns. The highlight was a regular-season-ending win at USC, which cinched a second-place finish in conference.

Arizona’s defense was good last year, finishing second behind Arizona State in the Pac-10, but fell apart in a 33-0 Holiday Bowl defeat to Nebraska.

It was a particularly biting loss for Stoops, who made his name as a defensive coordinator under his brother Bob at Oklahoma. Mike was in charge on defense when Oklahoma held Florida State’s offense scoreless in a 13-2 victory to capture the 2000 national championship.

It was quite a contrast to last year’s bowl debacle against Nebraska.

“I think the loss in the Holiday Bowl really humbled us and fueled us in the off-season,” Stoops said at Pac-10 media day. “We realized how quickly things can disintegrate if we don’t do things right.”

Stoops now must replace more than half of his defense and all three starters at linebacker. He hopes a couple of community college transfers can fill some gaps, but this is one of the most uncertain defenses he has sent into a season.

If Erickson’s offense can find a way to score points, Arizona State might be decent. And if Stoops’ defense can stop somebody, another bowl season beckons for Arizona.

Strange, huh?

ATLANTA — NFL owners are eager to increase the regular season from 16 to 18 games.

The players aren’t so sure.

During a five-hour meeting at a posh hotel in downtown Atlanta, the push to add two more games to the regular season picked up steam Wednesday — at least among those who sign the checks.

“I think it’s a win-win all around,” said Bob Kraft, owner of the New England Patriots.

The owners also unanimously approved Stan Kroenke’s proposal to purchase majority ownership of the St. Louis Rams, assuming he turns over control of two other teams he owns — the NBA’s Denver Nuggets and the NHL’s Colorado Avalanche — to his son.

Kroenke owns 40 percent of the downtrodden Rams and exercised his right to purchase the rest of the team from the Rosenbloom family for a reported $750 million.

“Obviously, all of us know and respect Stan,” commissioner Roger Goodell said. “He’s been a terrific owner in the NFL and we’re confident he will continue to be a great owner.”

Kroenke must turn over operational and financial control of the Nuggets and Avalanche to his 30year-old son, Josh, by the end of the year. He must give up his majority stake in the teams by December 2014 to meet NFL rules against cross-ownership of franchises in other NFL cities.

But talks on the expanded season dominated most of the meeting.

Goodell pointed out that the league already has the right to impose an 18-game schedule — and keep four preseason games for each team — under the current labor agreement with the players.

But that contract expires after this season, and it’s clear the expanded schedule will be a central issue in talks on a new collective Stan Kroenke bargaining agreement.

The owners would like to keep the season at 20 weeks, reducing the number of preseason games from four to two.

“We want to do it the right way for everyone, including the players, the fans and the game in general,” Goodell said. “There’s a tremendous amount of momentum for it. We think it’s the right step.”

The owners held off on voting on a specific proposal that could be presented to the players union.

Among the issues that still must be resolved: when to start the expanded regular season, possible roster expansion to cope with more games, and changes in training camp and offseason routines to come up with ways for evaluating younger players who wouldn’t have as many preseason games to make an impression.

“We want to continue to address a variety of issues before putting together a specific proposal, which our negotiating team will provide to the union’s negotiating team,” Goodell said. “There’s tremendous support for it. Almost all the questions, all the discussions, are how to do it in a way that’s fan friendly.”

Around the NFL, however, many players questioned the wisdom of making an already grueling season even longer. At the very least, they want more money — and several proposed changes in the rules governing injured players, or adding an extra bye week to deal with the grind.

“With 16 games, every game is important and therefore the fans are very into it, the stadiums are packed because they know if their team loses, it pushes them further and further away from making the playoffs,” Cincinnati quarterback Carson Palmer said. “I think if you go to 18, each game kind of loses a little bit of its significance.”

The players clearly expect to receive a bigger chunk of the multi-billion-dollar NFL pie if they’re going to be putting their bodies on the line in two more games that count.

“Obviously the players want to be compensated for two more games,” San Francisco 49ers linebacker Matt Wilhelm said. “That’s the one thing the players have to get met.”

They are also concerned about an increased risk of injuries and fret that it could shorten their careers or increase the number of health problems they endure after retirement.

“I would vote to eliminate two preseason games and then keep it at a 16-game season because the longer you’re out there playing, the more your body breaks down,” Chicago Bears tight end Desmond Clark said. “When you get into December, you’re like walking zombies. You can’t feel your joints.”

Cleveland Browns linebacker Scott Fujita said the timing of the proposal is odd, considering the owners want the players to accept a smaller share of the revenue in the next labor agreement.

“They are asking you to play more games and put yourself at more risk, and they are also asking us to take a pay cut,” he said. “That’s a lot to ask.

All those things don’t make a whole lot of sense.

We need to sit down and talk through it all and find out what it is they’re really trying to do and see if it makes sense or not.”

But Kraft said the expanded season is the most obvious step to bring in more money while the economy is struggling.

“I really think going to an 18-game season is critical to us getting a labor deal,” he said. “There’s not a lot of ways in this economic environment we can generate incremental revenues. That’s the best way.

“The other thing,” he added, “our fans have said pretty loud and clear they’d like us to have fewer preseason games.”

Several players and coaches have pointed out that having only two preseason games would likely make it more difficult for fringe players to get enough of a look to make the team.

Already, teams have been experimenting with joint workouts in training camp, believing those sessions could help replace the shorter preseason.

This year, for instance, the Atlanta Falcons worked out with both New England and Jacksonville.

“If it was a two-game preseason, then the starters are going to see most of that time because they’ve got to get ready for the season, so if you’re third string, good luck,” said Indianapolis linebacker Gary Brackett, the Colts’ defensive captain. “When I was a rookie, I needed every bit of those four games.”

But some figure it’s a foregone conclusion that the owners will get their way.

If Ramirez was auditioning for a new club such as the Chicago White Sox, who are rumored to have interest, it certainly was a success.

DENVER — Colorado overcame a nine-run deficit, matching the biggest rally in team history and stunned Atlanta on Troy Tulowitzki’s go-ahead single in the eighth inning. Down 10-1 in the third inning, the Rockies chipped away against the NL East leader before taking the lead with four runs in the eighth.

Power’s title hopes now rest on ovals

By John Marshall The Associated Press

SONOMA, Calif. — His dominating run through the IndyCar Series road and street courses at an end, Will Power heads into the final four races with a comfortable points lead over defending champion Dario Franchitti.

He’s far from at ease, though.

These final four races are on ovals and while Power has made progress going in circles, he’s not on the same level as Franchitti, arguably the best allaround driver on the circuit.

So as the IndyCar Series heads into its final stretch, starting this weekend at Chicagoland Speedway, Power can’t help but peek in his rearview mirror.

“I don’t think this championship is almost mine,” Power said after winning at Sonoma on Sunday. “There’s a lot of racing to go. Four races, a lot can happen. Really, whatever the buffer is, you can lose a lot of that in just one race. We’re going to work really hard. I’m going to race those ovals like I want to win the championship.”

It’s been an impressive run toward the title so far.

Power won the season-opener in Brazil to take the points lead and never relinquished it, thanks to a win at St. Petersburg the following week and again at Watkins Glen and Toronto.

The Aussie already had the inaugural IndyCar Series road course championship locked up before Sonoma. A year after having to be airlifted from the course with a broken back, he made it look easy in the hills of California’s wine country by overcoming some early-week jitters, securing his series-re-

George Nikitin / The Associated Press

IndyCar driver Will Power celebrates after winning the Indy Grand Prix of Sonoma Sunday at Infineon Raceway in Sonoma, Calif. cord eighth pole of 2010 with late bursts of speed in the final two qualifying sessions and leading all but two laps of Sunday’s race.

The win, combined with

Franchitti’s third-place finish, pushed Power’s lead to 59 points over the Scotsman.

Now it’s time to find out if Power’s power is limited to the road.

All of his series-leading wins this season came on road and street courses. The final four races — Kentucky, Japan and Homestead after Chicago — are all on 1.5-mile ovals.

Three years removed from Champ Car, Power is making gradual progress on ovals. Prior to this season, his best finish on an oval was fifth at Chicago in 2008, but this year he earned the pole at Iowa, where he finished fifth, and was eighth at the Indianapolis 500.

Still, Power has never won going in circles and he finished the first portion of the oval schedule eighth in the standings, 49 points behind Franchitti’s Chip Ganassi Racing teammate, Scott Dixon.

The two Ganassi drivers have dominated the ovals the past few years. Both are two-time series champions, Indy 500 champs — Franchitti won his second this year — and have combined to win eight oval races since 2008.

And they know how to run well at the final four tracks.

Both drivers have won at Homestead. Dixon, 95 points behind Power in the overall standings, has a victory at Twin Ring Motegi in Japan and Franchitti has won in Chicago, where Dixon has three second-place finishes.

Neither has won at Kentucky, but Ganassi Racing has.

“It’s a fairly large deficit, but it’s four tracks we’ve run well on,” Franchitti said. “I don’t underestimate the challenge at all.

Will is going to be quite strong.

People are writing him off because of his lack of experience on ovals, but he’ll be right up there. We have to do a better job and we’ll be pushing 100 percent.”

Webber in lead as F1 returns from break

By Paul Logothetis The Associated Press

MADRID — Mark Webber will be looking to build on his win in Hungary and pad his narrow overall lead when Formula One returns from its summer break at the Belgian Grand Prix on Sunday.

The Red Bull driver has won two of the last three races to take the lead in a tight championship race with only 20 points separating the top five drivers: Webber (161), McLaren’s Lewis Hamilton (157), Red Bull’s Sebastian Vettel (151), McLaren’s Jenson

Runner Continued from D1 They need some help figuring out the complex and sensitive issues of gender and biology that are involved here. In truth, we all do. It would help if the IAAF took the lead instead of simply clamming up.

The public admission by NBA star Magic Johnson in 1991 that he was living with HIV marked a step toward ending the shame that was associated with that disease.

If handled with tact but also with more openness, is it possible that Semenya’s case could be used to generate wider ac-

Button (147) and Ferrari’s Fernando Alonso (141).

Webber has overcome problems within the team to overtake Hamilton and Vettel in the standings, capitalizing on the circuit’s fastest car to show he’s a capable No. 1 for Red Bull.

Red Bull has been the pace setter all season, but Webber has been able to turn that into points better than Vettel. Webber expects the car to maintain its season-long edge at one of F1’s most iconic races in the rural Ardennes countryside.

ceptance and understanding for people with so-called “disorders of sexual development”?

As it is, as Cummins’ comments showed, some people are still incapable of looking any further than Semenya’s muscular frame and thinking “man” — even though that is mistaken and cruel.

It is unreasonable to expect Semenya herself to become a Johnson-like advocate, at least not now. She is only 19. She comes from a poor village in South Africa and seemingly had no idea that she might be differently biologically from most other women until this whole affair blew up around her. She needs to focus on herself and

Skateboarding Continued from D1 Street League is the latest infusion of big money into skateboarding. The first contest comes less than a month after the third Maloof Money Cup in Orange County, which paid out nearly $450,000 in cash and prizes.

Cole has won the last three Maloof contests, including the inaugural Maloof Money Cup New York in June, pocketing a total of $300,000.

“I think there was this weird mentality that street skaters just didn’t want to go to contests and be part of it,” Dyrdek said. “I think it led to when the Maloofs came in with that big prize money. That set the new standard for what was possible. But for me, I felt even that still has a long way to go. Eventually, I wanted to be where these guys go on tour in the summer and skate for millions of dollars. We’re already able to do that, by having the first million-dollar skateboard tour.”

The Maloof Money Cups are hosted by Joe and Gavin Maloof, the brothers who own the NBA’s Sacramento Kings.

Having done all the other contests, Rodriguez is all for Street League.

“I love it,” said Rodriguez, who won the inaugural Maloof Money Cup and $100,000 in 2008. “I think it’s going to be the best contest thus far, ever, for sure.”

Dyrdek said the purse for this year’s three Street League events outstrips the combined payouts of the Dew Tour, X Games

“I expect we can do well there. Whether it’s as well as I did in Budapest is a question for everyone,” the Australian said. “But I know our team is ready.”

All drivers are looking forward to tackling high speed corners like Eau Rouge and Pouhon come Sunday’s 44-lap race. Vettel is worried about whether Red Bull can command in the straights, however.

“Our weakness will be the long straights and, with uphill sections too, we know it won’t be easy for us,” the German driver said. “But I am optimistic for the race.”

her promising career after the horrid 11 months that she spent being prodded, poked and debated over by doctors and public opinion.

But someone does need to speak up — either her lawyers, her manager or the IAAF. They don’t need to open up Semenya’s medical files to public scrutiny.

But it would help if they gave more information than simply, to cite the IAAF statement, “she can compete” and “please note that the medical details of the case remain confidential and the IAAF will make no further comment.”

If Semenya has a condition that might have been giving her a competitive edge over other

and the Maloof contests. He wants to hold at least five contests next year, including on the East Coast.

“We’ve never really had too big an opportunity to win such huge cash prizes,” Pudwill said. “It’s kind of crazy that it came out of nowhere. But if you look at how much skating has progressed in the last three years, you see how much harder skateboarders are working. It’s awesome to see. It brings a lot of attention to skateboarding.”

Street League has caused some controversy because its skaters are signed exclusively. They had a two-event exemption for this year, but in the future won’t be able to compete in the Maloof Money Cup, Dew Tour or X Games.

“Point blank, the reality of Street League will be where the elite street skaters end up,” Dyrdek said. “To me it is the ultimate tier and there’ll be a grand sort of understanding, if you’re one of the best, this is where you skate.”

Only six skaters will qualify for the finals, with a seventh getting in via a last-chance qualifier.

“It’s going to be tough to get into that seven and chase down that big money,” Dyrdek said.

The instant scoring format brings a competitive strategy to skateboarding for the first time. Each skateboarder will get seven attempts on the four sections of the course: technical, creative, line and big.

Each attempt gets an instant score on a scale of zero to 10, averaged from five judges. Each landed trick contributes to a cumulative point total. Tricks that aren’t

women, then perhaps that could be explained privately to those runners who race against her.

If she has since undergone hormone treatment to reduce or negate that advantage, then that should be explained, too. The risk otherwise is that the doubts about Semenya will simply linger, which is unfair for her and those who race against her.

“It’s obviously a human rights issue but human rights affect everyone in the race, not just one person,” British runner Jemma Simpson told the Telegraph after finishing fourth in the Berlin race that Semenya won. “No way is it a personal issue but it’s a debate about what is right and fair for everyone.”

landed are given a zero.

It’s a change from the jam format, where a handful of skaters all do tricks at the same time.

“It could be up to Paul Rodriguez to switch heel flip down the triple-set (of stairs) on the final trick of the whole event,” Dyrdek said.

“He needs a 3.2 to overtake Chris Cole, and bam, he has to do a single trick for $150,000.

It’s the same way you watch four quarters of football for that field goal, or four quarters that lead Kobe Bryant to a three-pointer.”

“Falls become exciting. If he falls, he just lost $150,000.”

In the Maloof Money Cup three weeks ago, Cole landed enough tricks to top a sensational performance by the 15-year-old Huston, who landed all 16 of his tricks in his section of the third and final heat. Huston was crushed. The difference between first and second place was $60,000.

Dyrdek spent six years planning Street League, and Rodriguez lauds the attention paid to such elements as style, cleanliness of landing a trick and creativity.

“It suits skateboarding as best as possible,” Rodriguez said. “Skateboarding is a hard thing to judge anyway. It’s not something that can be put in a box, but we’re putting it as best as possible into a box.”

Dyrdek said there will be revenue sharing for the skaters, and there will even be an online fantasy game at streetleague.com.

Each city that hosts a Street League event will get the obstacles as well as $50,000 from Dyrdek’s foundation for construction and design costs to build a permanent skate plaza.

Archery Continued from D1 The Ochoco Unit has about 14 bucks per 100 does, and the Grizzly Unit has about 17 bucks per 100 does, according to Ferry. The ODFW management objective for those units is 15 bucks per 100 does.

Bull elk ratios are also looking good in the Prineville area. Ferry reported 28 bulls per 100 cows in the Maury Unit, and 25 bulls per 100 cows in both the Ochoco and Grizzly units.

Ferry said the overall health of the elk herds is good and the populations are either stable or growing.

“We’re meeting the 20 bulls per 100 cows objective,” Ferry said.

“That bodes well for elk hunters.

It’ll allow for sightly expanded opportunities. There’ll be some really nice bulls out there in all three units.”

The deer population in the Deschutes District — which includes the Upper Deschutes, Metolius, and Paulina/East Fort Rock units — is in “pretty good condition,” said Steve George, a

Bend-based wildlife biologist for the ODFW. “We’ve seen quite a few adults as well as young deer,” George said. “Upper Deschutes looks good or better than the other (units). The Metolius should be pretty good also.”

George added that year-round poaching in the area has become an increasing concern. He said the poaching take of mule deer in the Paulina/East Fort Rock, Silver Lake and Upper Deschutes units is exceeding the legal harvest for all deer hunting seasons combined in those units.

“It’s more than what we had anticipated it being,” George said of the poaching. “We’ve always known poaching played a role, but this level is pretty disturbing.”

Ferry added that hunters should pay attention to fire danger before setting out into the field. Hunters should check with the BLM and the U.S. Forest Service, as both agencies can adopt fire restrictions.

Drawn by 15-year-old Ashley Walker, of Bend, the cardboard lion was a big hit at the Big Bore Double Rifle Safari Shoot on Saturday. Here, Lee Van Tassell, of Bend, shows off two well-placed shots.

Safari Continued from D6 How did our shooters do?

We counted 53 bullet holes in Walker’s cardboard creation at the end of the day. Twenty-four bullets punched through the kill zones between the eyes and in the heart.

With an open-sighted Swedish Husqvarna bolt-action I had borrowed from Chub Eastman, I put one 9.3x62 round in the right spot and another just out.

Five points out of a possible 10, and the satisfaction of knowing my DNA wouldn’t end up as plaque in the big feline’s cardboard choppers.

The next test was the walkthrough course where the hunters, accompanied by a professional hunter and a teenaged assistant, engaged a swing-out buffalo and a Bill Fockler-designed plywood elephant that stepped out from behind a tall juniper. A pop-up warthog, an in-your-face black mamba, a leopard and a running paper impala finished out the big game portion of the safari.

COSSA president Bill Lewis picked up the shooting party at the end of the run on a trailer towed behind his ATV. All participants were coated in a proper layer of Central Oregon dust by the end of the day.

Spencer Tabor, of Central Oregon Sporting Clays, provided his mobile tower for the wing-

shooting stage. Overall winners were Keith Kearcher and Rick Johns, shooting double rifles, and Joe Cullison and myself, who carried bolt guns. Joan Hardy, of Azalea, took first place in the ladies wingshooting stage with a score of five out of 10 targets.

The lessons learned in the junipers were not lost on our party of 21 shooters and two dozen spectators. No matter what rifle you carry — whether you’re planning a two-day deer hunt or a two-month safari — practice, and only practice, will help you make the shots when they count.

How realistic was it? Our targets were paper and plywood, but there was pressure from the audience and our “professional hunter” guides. Our lion was going half-speed. A real lion can reach 50 mph in a short burst.

Several bullets took the lion through the mane or grazed its tawny shoulders, which would have ensured an untimely though spectacular expiration for the rifleman.

And a couple of our hunters could have ended up as elephant toe jam had this been Zimbabwe and not BLM land.

t is for moments like this a hunter carries a double rifle.

In the meager shade, a lion stood, yellow eyes focused on the object of its hatred. Keith Kearcher thumbed two cartridges into the twin tubes of a 450/400 Nitro Express double rifle.

The lion needed little motivation to charge.

“Shooter ready?” It was Ron Hooper from Cascade Bad Boy Buggies with his foot on the accelerator. A rope ran through a pulley to the cardboard lion.

Tied to the back of the all-electric ATV, the four-wheeled cart with the two-dimensional lion reached a top speed of 25 miles per hour in about two jumps.

With no sound save the bump of tires over tufts of bunch grass, the target hurtled toward the shooter from a distance of 40 yards. Kearcher fired, picked up the target again over the top of the front sight and squeezed the trigger again when the lion was 15 feet off his barrel in a cloud of dust.

Sunlight streamed through two holes centered between the eyes, less than 4 inches apart.

In the desert heat among the juniper trees, it doesn’t take too much imagination to see Africa over the twin tubes of a double gun or a big bore bolt rifle.

We called it the Big Bore/Double Rifle Safari Shoot, an invitational event to prepare hunters for safari.

Our first event of this type was held at the Central Oregon Shooting Sports Association (COSSA) Range east of Bend two years ago.

This year, we decided to employ the cardboard lion, provided by 15-year-old artist Ashley Walker, who spent several days examining pictures, sketching and coloring.

Here is the weekly hunting report for selected areas in and around Central Oregon, provided by wildlife biologists for the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife:

CENTRAL ZONE

FISHING REPORT

FLY-TYING CORNER

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 should grow quickly.

BIG LAVA LAKE: Fishing has slowed down with the warmer temperatures, and the water is a little lower than past years. The fish that are landed have been in great condition ranging in size from 11 to 16 inches.

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 starting to drop, the big rainbows are in deeper channels looking for cooler water. Fish are more active in early morning or late evening.

The fish getting checked in at the resort are running 2 to 7 pounds. The bass fishing is good around the dam.

CRESCENT LAKE: Fishing is slow; water temperature is around 60 and the fish are spread throughout the lake. The water level is dropping a bit and some anglers are picking up 8- to 10-pound browns. The kokanee have not started to change yet.

CROOKED RIVER BELOW BOWMAN DAM: Flows have been averaging around 300 cfs and fishing is good.

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 levels is low and boat access is limited.

Please note this is a fly-fishing only lake. Please check your synopsis for the regulations for this water body.

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. Some fishermen are reporting catching more Atlantic salmon than other fish.

FALL RIVER: Fishing has been good.

Nymphs have been particularly effective, but fish also are taking attractor dry-fly patterns.

LAKE BILLY CHINOOK: Kokanee fishing is expected to pick up significantly in the Metolius arm this week.

LAURANCE LAKE: Trout fishing for native rainbow and cutthroat along with lots of stocked rainbows should make summer fishing in Laurance good. It’s a great place to fly fish out of a small boat or personal watercraft.

LOST LAKE: Lost Lake has been stocked with lots of rainbow trout and has a few resident brown trout. Lost is great place to troll around in a small boat or fish from the bank.

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.

ARCHERY buck and elk seasons open Aug. 28. Conditions are warm, dry, and noisy, which will make hunting challenging. Both deer and elk came through the winter in good shape, with bull and buck ratio’s improved from the 2009 seasons. The hot and dry conditions have heightened fire concerns, and hunters should consult with the Prineville BLM and/or Ochoco National Forest for the latest fire re-

strictions. Hunters are reminded that the Maury is now a controlled entry unit and they must have the controlled entry deer tag in order to hunt in it.

Early ANTLERLESS ELK hunts are ongoing in portions of the Maury, Ochoco, and Grizzly units. These hunts are primarily on private agricultural and range lands where hunters need permission from the landowner. Typically elk move into these hunt areas in greater numbers during the late summer to take advantage of the irrigated pastures and hay fields.

COUGAR are present at all elevations in the Maury, Ochoco, and Grizzly units.

Like coyotes, cougar will be attracted to deer and antelope, but also elk. The Maury and Ochoco units are recommended because of their greater amounts of public lands and better accessibility. Remember cougars must be checked in at an ODFW office within 10 days after harvest. Please consult the synopsis for all required parts and be sure to call first to make an appointment.

Hair Caddis, use a right angle dropper and vary the size and shade to give the fish options.

If the current pulls the flies under, continue the drift, because bigger trout are more confident when they don’t have to come to the surface.

Tie the Percolator with orange thread on a No. 4-12 Daiichi 1270 or equivalent.

For the tail, use moose hair.

Wrap the body with peacock herl and copper wire and a palmered brown saddle hackle. Make the wing with moose hair and finish the collar with a grizzly saddle hackle over orange thread.

ODELL LAKE: Fishing was good last weekend with a lot of fishermen reporting good numbers. The fish where in the 12-inch to 15-inch range.

Please note that all bull trout must be released unharmed.

PAULINA LAKE: The lake has been producing some nice kokanee.

TAYLOR LAKE: Taylor Lake should offer anglers a good opportunity to catch bass and bluegill. It’s also a great place to catch carp on the fly rod.

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.

WICKIUP RESERVOIR: Water temperature is starting to drop and is down to 62 degrees. Fishing is picking up for big browns and kokanee in the Deschutes arm. The kokanee are heading up to spawn and the browns and bows are going up after the eggs. The water is very low and the only places to launch a boat is off the sandy beaches. Fourwheel drive is a must to pull your boat back out.

Less emissions. More driving pleasure.

Going wherever the day takes us

SPOTLIGHT Fire closes trails near McKenzie Pass Highway The Scott Mountain Fire, near the McKenzie Pass Highway, has closed several recreation areas in the vicinity.

An emergency closure is in place for the area bounded by state Highway 126 on the west, McKenzie Pass Highway on the south and the Deschutes/ Linn county line on the east, according to InciWeb, a multiagency fire information center.

The closure includes roads east of Highway 126, many of which access trailheads into the Mount Washington Wilderness.

Additionally, Scott Lake and Alder Springs campgrounds are closed and visitors have been required to leave, according to InciWeb. Robinson Lake, Hand Lake and Benson Lake trails are also closed.

State Highway 126 and the McKenzie Pass Highway (state Highway 242), the Pacific Crest Trail, Belknap Crater Trail and Limberlost Campground are open, but the public is encouraged to avoid using McKenzie Pass Highway because of congestion caused by fire crews.

Family’s recreation failures lead to fun-filled day at Elk Lake

By Julie Johnson The Bulletin

s a lover of punctuation, I could hardly resist Comma Lake.

Does it nestle in the dales around Cultus Lake like a comma snuggled between an independent clause and a coordinating conjunction?

Does it curve around a hillside like a heavy-serif font?

Alas, I don’t know. Because Comma Lake was among the several destinations my family did not make it to last weekend in a failed attempt to camp, hike and generally recreate in the Deschutes National Forest.

Our initial plan was to camp at Cultus Lake, hitting the trail toward Comma Lake after setting up camp. But when we arrived in the chilly morning and started unloading our gear, it became immediately clear why 8-year-olds shouldn’t be allowed to pack their own bags. Despite multiple requests after a grown-up perusal of the contents of the bag, our son Harry had neglected to pack anything warmer than a cotton T-shirt for himself or his 5-year-old brother, Jack. It was 50 degrees at the time and expected to be in the 30s overnight; camping was out.

Oh, well, we could still hike, right?

Comma Lake lies near the border of the Three Sisters Wilderness, a short distance from the Winopee Trail. That trail, with its trailhead at Cultus Lake, snakes a pinelined course to several high-mountain lakes near the Pacific Crest Trail. But after traversing a short section of the trail, we realized Comma Lake would not be easy to find, especially with our map inconveniently forgotten at home (maybe we should have let the 8-year-old pack).

Rather than bushwhack through a trackless forest in pursuit of the lake, we backtracked to the trailhead and assessed the situation: Camping was out, Comma Lake was out. Why not try a picturesque drive through the forest toward a few more lakes we knew to be nearby?

The practice of heading off on a forest road to points unknown is a time-honored tradition in my family. I have vivid memories of spending whole days with my sister in the leather-scented cab of my dad’s Chevy Cheyenne pickup, bouncing over washboards and rocks, watching the dust swirl behind us. The Ken Johnson-approved method of forest (or desert) travel goes something like this: Have a vague

Alley Jam, a fundraiser to benefit the Division Street Skatepark project and the American Cancer Society, will be held from 3 to 10 p.m. Saturday in Tin Pan Alley, which runs between Minnesota and Franklin avenues east of Bond Street in downtown Bend.

The family-friendly event will feature skateboarding, artists, live painting, music and food.

Skate features will be constructed for the event, and local skaters are invited to participate in an open skate jam and competitions.

Local bands Larry and His Flask, Mosley Wotta, Mindscape and Necktie Killer will perform live music.

The event is free, but donations will be accepted. Funds raised through sales of art, food and raffle tickets will be split 50-50 between the skatepark project and the American Cancer Society.

Wife attests bald-headed men are smooth operators Dear Abby: I had to chuckle at the letter from “Smooth-Headed in Tampa” (June 28), who complained that shallow women won’t date a bald man. He hit the nail on the head with the term “shallow.”

My husband is bald, but I didn’t realize it when I first met him because he always wore a ball cap.

We had gone to school together many years earlier, and he had thick, wavy hair then. When he took his cap off, I only hesitated for a second, remembering a lesson my father had taught me: “Never judge a book by its cover.”

I’m so glad I heeded my dad’s advice. We’ve been married 11 years and are more in love with each other now than when we married.

Please tell “Smooth-Headed” that not all women are shallow. He wouldn’t want a woman like that, anyway. Besides, those women have no idea what they’re missing.

I keep threatening to get my husband that T-shirt that reads, “This Isn’t a Bald Head, It’s a Solar Panel for a Sex Machine,” but he says he doesn’t want to spill the beans!

— Love His Chrome Dome Dear Love: Thank you for the encouraging words for “SmoothHeaded.” If the enthusiasm from my readers who love and/or prefer bald men is any indication, “Smooth” has been worrying needlessly. Read on: Dear Abby: I happen to absolutely go nuts over bald or balding men. I find nothing sexier. I can spot a bald man a mile off, and in my eyes there is no one else who compares. It may be because ever since I can remember, my father has been balding.

It makes no difference to me whether a man has little or no hair, is tall or short, thin or heavy.

It is what’s on the inside that counts. Any man bold enough to shave his head or not cover it with a ball cap is tops in my book.

— Out There Looking Dear Abby: Doesn’t “Smooth” know that bald is the new “sexy”?

If he is uncomfortable with his

DEAR ABBY hairline, he should see a barber or stylist who can make what hair he has “hot.” Every head can look good.

I have happily dated men with receding hairlines and shaved heads. “Smooth” just needs to find a real woman who’s interested in who he is, not what’s growing or not growing on top of his head.

— Not Baldphobic In Massachusetts Dear Abby: You are correct that plenty of women will date balding men. Aside from your assertion that we are the smart ones who see beyond the surface, balding is supposed to be a sign of virility.

I do have one question for “Smooth-Headed”: Are you willing to date women who are less than supermodels? Many women I know, myself included, are smart, funny and sexy, but have been spurned because we are slightly overweight. What I have learned is that people who sit around whining about the opposite sex being shallow should review their own biases and unrealistic expectations. Who might you be overlooking, Mr. “Smooth”?

— Big And Beautiful In South Dakota Dear Abby: I am in a loving, happy relationship with my 26-year-old boyfriend who has male-pattern baldness. We met through Internet dating, and “Smooth” should give it a try. My advice to balding men: Don’t be ashamed. “Own” your baldness.

My boyfriend does. And his self-confidence makes him even more attractive to me.

‘Parenthood’

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

The Bravermans of NBC’s “Parenthood” have a boat in their foyer. So to speak.

Walk onto one of the sprawling soundstages at Universal Studios that are home to the NBC drama, which begins its second season Sept. 21, and the first thing you see is Crosby Braverman’s houseboat, bobbing at the “marina,” although the only actual water in sight is bottled.

Beyond the boat, TV critics visiting the “Parenthood” set last month got to poke around in bedrooms and bathrooms and even peek into fully stocked cabinets and drawers. We chatted with Adam and Kristina (Peter Krause and Monica Potter), who surprised us in their kitchen.

Zeek and Camille (Craig Nelson and Bonnie Bedelia) served lemonade. This is one hospitable family.

With a huge cast making up five households and sets taking up parts of four soundstages, the biggest challenge for art director Tim Eckel and set decorator Julianne Getman — beyond the sheer volume of the task — is to lend a distinct personality to each space.

They have succeeded. It’s easy to tell that this is little Max Braverman’s bedroom and that that is the senior Bravermans’ sunporch even if (through the magic of TV) the rooms are closer together than they ought to be.

Furnishings and each little tchotchke have been chosen to make each space look both personal and comfortably lived in.

The cast settled in during last spring’s initial run, and beginning the new season felt like coming home, they say.

The cast of “Parenthood” is shown: top row, Peter Krause, Sarah Ramos, Dax Shepard, Lauren Graham, Miles Heizer, Sam Jaeger; bottom row, Monica Potter, Max Burkholder, Craig T. Nelson, Bonnie Bedelia, Mae Whitman, Erika Christensen and Savannah Rae. sleek but homey northern California style, although it makes her feel somehow that she should be a better cook. Bedelia loves to curl up on a swing on Camille’s sunporch.

The favorite spot on the set for some visitors was the houseboat, on which they thought they could comfortably live. But I was most taken with Adam’s shoe factory, with its vintage-look “Welsh Shoes” neon sign and boxes of product samples.

Beyond the soundstages, “Parenthood” also sprawls outside, to a big dining table where all of the Bravermans gather for barbecues and banter. Before we could join them for chicken and burgers, though, everyone sat down to talk about the show. The only absentee: Mae Whitman (Amber), who was attending the premiere of her latest movie, “Scott

Pilgrim vs. the World.”

A family atmosphere prevailed as 16 cast members settled into director’s chairs. Little Tyree Brown (Jabbar, Crosby Braverman’s newly discovered son) swung his feet and picked his nose. When his microphone clip came loose, Lauren Graham (his TV aunt, Sarah Braverman) reached down to re-attach it for him.

Asked how he managed such a large cast, executive producer Jason Katims joked, “We’re planning on killing them off, one episode at a time.”

NBC advised waiting to start during November sweeps, he added.

Actually, Katims said, “Writing for the show is an embarrassment of riches, and you can see it right here in front of you.

“It’s a big challenge but also what

makes the show so wonderful.”

Patience isn’t easy for Dax Shepard, who plays Crosby and watches “Parenthood” every week with his fiancee (Kristin Bell of “Veronica Mars”). (He’s grateful, he said, that he doesn’t have to make her suffer through a terrible show.)

“But every time I’m watching, I’ll see like Mae Whitman in a scene, and I’ll go, ‘I want to be in scenes with Mae Whitman,’” Shepard said. “’She’s so good.

When are we going to have a story line?’”

“Everyone on the show, you want to work with at all times.”

Graham sees “Parenthood” growing over time.

“I think it’s complicated, and what I love about our show is that I don’t feel it’s stereotypical,” she said. “Each of these people is getting more and more specific and layered and very real, and there’s a kind of texture that I had not experienced before — it just feels loose and alive and authentic.”

That feeling is what Katims hopes for.

“I like to leave room for improvisation,” he said. “The beauty of doing a television show is that i’s a continuing dialogue.

You write something. You put the script out there. Then you see what comes back in the editing room, and I want to be able to respond to that so I don’t have tunnel vision about what the stories are going to be. We definitely have ideas, but I also keep myself open to changing those ideas as we go.”

Mom says a good scare was en ou g h to punish teen who pestered Bieber

By Kristen Jordan Shamus Detroit Free Press

Say what you will about Justin Bieber — that he’s not all that talented, that his haircut (or lack of one) makes you crazy — but the crooner from Stratford, Ontario, taught 15-year-old Kevin Kristopik one heck of a lesson this week: Do something stupid enough and you, too, can become a star.

With the power of Twitter, Bieber unleashed his 4.5 million followers upon the Bloomfield Township, Mich., teen, who had hacked the Facebook page of Bieber’s pal to get the pop star’s cell phone number. Kevin proceeded to send Bieber as many as 10 text messages a day for weeks.

Bieber asked him to stop, but Kevin, who’ll be a sophomore this year at Birmingham Seaholm High School, kept at it.

“He just wanted to see if Justin Bieber would text him back,” said Kevin’s mom, Kathy Kristopik.

So, last Saturday — the day before Bieber’s sold-out show at the Palace of Auburn Hills — Bieber found a way to make Kevin knock it off.

He posted Kevin’s cell phone number instead of his own on Twitter, urging fans to call or text him. Over the next two days, as many as 30,000 calls and text messages flooded Kevin’s phone.

Barcelona fines U2 MADRID — Barcelona city hall says rock band U2 has paid a fine of $22,000 for playing too long and too loudly during rehearsals in the Spanish city last year.

A spokeswoman said the Irish group was penalized for rehearsing until midnight— two hours over the scheduled time— and at sound levels above those set by authorities prior to a concert in Barcelona in June 2009.

Conan comes to vinyl, thanks to Jack White LOS ANGELES — Don’t worry if you didn’t get a chance to experience Conan O’Brien live.

With his “Legally Prohibited From Being Funny on Television Tour” wrapped and his return to late night not until November, Coco Conan O’Brien fans can get their fix of the orange-haired one with two new releases set to hit stores this week.

Both were recorded at Jack White’s Third Man complex in Nashville, Tenn.

In June, O’Brien treated a small crowd of 300 to a last-minute, intimate set, resulting in the first release, “Live at Third Man.” The second release, “And They Call Me Mad?” is a 7-inch single with O’Brien’s improvised, spokenword retelling of Frankenstein on one side and an interview with O’Brien by White on the other.

stations — even the big network morning shows — descended upon the Kristopik home. Kevin and his mom spoke with “Inside Edition,” which has offered $500 to help pay for any fees that appear on the cell phone bill from all those calls and texts.

“There were like five messages from ‘Good Morning America’ on our phone,” Kristopik said. At Kevin’s first varsity tennis practice on Monday, “two TV trucks pulled up. And Kevin was yelling at them, ‘You’ve gotta get out of here.’”

Of course, the requests for interviews continued. Right up to my phone call to the home Wednesday evening to ask whether Kevin got in trouble for hacking his way to Bieber’s phone number or for harassing the pop star. Would he have to help pay for any big bills from AT&T? The answer was not exactly what I expected.

“What Kevin did was absolutely wrong and he knows that,” Kristopik said. “But what he didn’t do was ... give out that phone number. ... He could have sold the number or given it out.”

When Bieber turned the tables, “it scared him,” Kristopik said.

“He had a couple of meltdowns over it. ... What he was scared of was how much information people knew about him. It punished him enough.”

Both releases can be ordered on Third Man Records’ site, and the single will also be available on iTunes this week.

Boyle to sing for the pope during UK tour LONDON — British singing sensation Susan Boyle says she is humbled and honored by the opportunity to sing for Pope Benedict XVI during his tour of Britain.

The Roman Catholic Church says the singer will perform hymns and sing with an 800strong choir at an open-air papal Mass in Glasgow’s Bellahouston Park on Sept. 16. Benedict’s fourday trip will be the first papal visit to Britain since Pope John Paul II in 1982.

Boyle will also sing “I Dreamed A Dream,” the “Les Miserables” song that catapulted her to fame on the TV show “Britain’s Got Talent.”

Judge orders outpatient care for Lindsey Lohan BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. — A judge has ordered Lindsay Lohan to undergo a rigorous outpatient rehab program that will require frequent counseling.

Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Elden Fox ordered the “Mean Girls” star to undergo psychotherapy and addiction counseling sessions several times a week until November.

Lohan will also be required to undergo frequent drug testing under Fox’s modification of Lohan’s sentence. He said he ordered the actress’ release at 5 p.m. Tuesday.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Thursday, Aug. 26, 2010: This year, you move in a new direction because of input and relationships with those who are close. You might find or feel that you are always on your own. You always have been; you just might not have known it. Learn to be dependent on only yourself. If you are single, many exciting people could mosey through your life.

Love is intense and unpredictable.

Don’t try to anchor someone in.

Let him or her be free if you value the bond. If you are attached, your significant other could become very unpredictable. Don’t take his or her actions personally. The relationship could encourage you to transform as well. ARIES reads you cold.

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 Your instincts guide you. The unexpected weaves through your daily life. You gain new insights and knowledge from events and people.

A detached yet observant attitude pays off. Tonight: Chill, then decide.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHH Don’t lose your focus when someone surprises you. You could be shaking your head for quite a while about what is going on. Investigate and understand what is motivating others. Flex.

Tonight: You need some downtime.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Others follow your lead.

You might be far more flexible than you think. Many people

are amazed at how you adjust to the vicissitudes of life. Take the lead once more in stormy waters. Tonight: Be ready to join friends. If the invitation doesn’t come, you make the first move.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Reach out for someone at a distance. You might not believe some of the information and news heading in your direction. The unexpected plays a role. Listen, but also detach in order to get to the bottom line.

Tonight: Could be working late.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH A partner moves forward with ideas. What someone suggests could be shocking, if nothing else.

Understand what is happening with this person, and look for solutions. Don’t trust anyone with your financial decisions.

Tonight: Follow the music.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH You will want to defer to others. Understand what is going on behind the scenes with a partner. You might want to detach from someone who always is shaking up the status quo. You might not want to tolerate this uproar.

Tonight: Just don’t be alone.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHH You will be left holding down the fort if no one else can or will. An element of disruption and change floats through your day, forcing your hand. Be willing to incorporate new technology.

Tonight: Stretch and take a walk, then decide what appeals to you.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHHH You have the adaptability and creativity to move past an immediate issue.

You discover that others could be floored, whereas your mind is delighted by challenges. A child or loved one could act up.

Tonight: Join in on some fun.

Still, make it an early night.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Listen to news that comes forward. You might need to make an adjustment. You could make a major change in your domestic or personal life, should you decide to.

You might opt to work from home.

Tonight: Hang out close to home.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH The unexpected occurs while just going through your daily life. You might be distracted, but not for long. A situation invigorates you. Clear out calls and catch up on news, even if it is laced with gossip! Tonight: Hang out.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH You could be viewing a risk differently from many who surround you. Get to the bottom of a problem, knowing a situation is wide open. A partner might be uncomfortable with your focus.

Tonight: Head out to a local spot.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHHH You might be surprised by everything that heads in your direction. Others find you a bit off or flaky. Listen to your inner voice, as you are going to be pushed in a new direction.

Tonight: Do your thing, and buy yourself a much-needed treat. © 2010 by King Features Syndicate

Screaming through the trees on a wooden roller coaster

By Mekado Murphy New York Times News Service

Roller coasters in casinos!

Roller coasters on towers! Roller coasters in malls!

In an effort to provide unusual and authentic thrills, companies and theme parks have devised several ways to make their rides stand out. But rarely have these scream machines used the environment around them in a ride that celebrates nature.

Enter Boulder Dash. This appropriately titled roller coaster is billed as the first built into the side of a mountain, with a track that moves along tree-lined terrain. As an enthusiast who has logged rides on more than 100 coasters nationwide, I had somehow missed this novelty — and it is practically in my own backyard, at Lake Compounce, a small, family amusement park tucked in the hills of Bristol, Conn.

Twisted tracks of steel are more my style, but Boulder Dash has many of the qualities I love in a coaster — smoothness, varied hills, speed — and does so in a setting I had never experienced before.

The ride is the signature attraction at Lake Compounce, a two-hour drive from New York City. The park mostly draws area families to its varied attractions, offering some perks not frequently seen elsewhere, like free, unlimited soda.

Piotr Redlinski / New York Times News Service

Guests ride the Boulder Dash wooden roller coaster at the Lake Compounce amusement park in Bristol, Conn., on Aug. 13. The coaster, billed as the first built into the side of a mountain, can reach 65 mph.

Lake Compounce has been loyal to its local following but wanted to create an attraction that would help put it on the map, something that would get people talking about it nationally. In the late ’90s, the park worked with engineers from the company Custom Coasters International, now defunct, to build a wooden coaster into the 900-foot rocky mountain that lines the rear of the park.

“We had to drill and core into

Outing Continued from E1 We wound up on Forest Road 4636, which skirts the edge of Little Cultus Lake (a slower-paced alternative to the speedboat frenzy on Cultus Lake) and heads up the hills toward Lemish, Taylor and Irish lakes. We saw a couple of does staring warily through the trees. We admired some cool rock formations. We dodged gullies and rocks in the road that would have taken out a vehicle with a lower clearance than ours.

It was a pleasant, dusty, destinationless drive straight out of my father’s playbook.

Eventually, the road became too rough to continue and we pulled into the Many Lakes Trailhead to turn around, waiting for the dust to settle behind a passing group of dirt bikers before we headed back downhill.

So now what? Camping was out, Comma Lake was out, and now we had exhausted our quota of aimless driving in the forest.

We decided to head back toward Bend on Cascade Lakes Highway and stop at a favorite local spot, the day-use beach at Elk Lake.

This sweet spot is a pebblestrewn expanse of lakeshore staring straight at the rising shoulders of Mount Bachelor beyond the rippling blue water.

the rock and anchor our foundations there,” said Jerry Brick, the park’s general manager. It took a year-and-a-half to construct Boulder Dash. Engineers used eight layers of Southern yellow pine to build the track. It opened in 2000.

For those waiting to board, most of the track is hidden from view. Small parts can be spotted through the trees, but part of the ride’s thrill is not knowing where you’re headed. The lift hill — the

rise to the first drop — is literally up a hill and disappears into the woods, so the only way to get a true sense of where the coaster goes is by riding it.

The first drop is 115 feet, banking heavily and leading into a series of hills and curves that follow the terrain of the mountain. The view to either side is of the surrounding trees and rocks.

Riders are rarely more than 10 to 12 feet from the ground, so at some points it feels as if you were on the fastest forest hayride ever.

Boulder Dash reaches impressive top speeds of 65 mph, which is on a par with, and sometimes even faster than, many steel coasters.

The final part of the track pops out of the trees and runs along a road near the park’s lake. It’s the best place for nonriders to see the ride, as the train moves through a series of quick bunny hills before heading back into the station.

Wooden coasters are often criticized for their shakiness and jerkiness. As the wood wears over the years, and the track gets a little looser, riding them can be a brain-jangling experience. The park’s other wooden coaster, the Wildcat, has been around since 1927 and has all the bumps to prove it.

The wood of the Boulder Dash wasn’t immune to this, and coaster enthusiasts noticed.

Isabel Rodhouse, 5, pauses while hunting for crawdads in the rocks at Elk Lake.

A popular lake for sailboats and stand-up paddle boards, it’s also a hit with the under-10 set, who aren’t apparently bothered by chilly water made more so by the stiff breeze that perpetually blows across the lake. Our sons joined a few other kids playing

some sort of king-of-the-mountain game on a half-floating log while my husband and I fired up the camp stove to grill some hot dogs on a nearby picnic table.

(Hey, maybe we couldn’t camp, but we could sure take advantage of the cooler full of provisions we’d brought.) Other nearby families skipped stones in the lake, took a toddler for a ride on the paddle board, watched a sailboat tack to and fro or scoured the rocks in the shallows for crawdads.

Crawdad hunting turned out to be irresistible to my sons, who promptly joined the horde of other kids racing around, splashing and staring intently into the shallow water. Amid their squeals at near-dismemberment (not really) from a crawdad claw and their shouts of triumph at having grabbed a few of the crusta-

ceans, the beach was filled with a babble of frenetic kid noises.

Crawdads released back into the wild and hot dogs consumed beachside with mustard and sauerkraut, we stared across the lake for a few more minutes, buffeted by the wind but enjoying the relaxing atmosphere nonetheless.

Because we get to live here in this paradise, and even if the camping trip is a flop, the trail remains unfinished and the forest road heads to destinations unknown, there’s always a lake somewhere and a little time for crawdad hunting.

Even when it goes wrong, as our weekend plans so undoubtedly did, it’s still so right.

In 2004 Amusement Today, a trade paper for the theme park industry, ranked the Lake Compounce ride No. 1 in the world for wooden coasters. By 2007 it had dropped to No. 4. That year the coaster underwent an overhaul. The park spent $3 million on renovations, replacing about 80 percent of the track and redoing some of its supports.

Some of the ride’s elements were also reconfigured. A trick near the end, where the track is intentionally uneven, making it seem as if the cars were wobbling from side to side, was replaced with the bunny hills.

In Amusement Today’s poll last year, the coaster was back up to No. 2. (The Voyage, at Holiday World in Indiana, with giant hills and five underground tunnels, was the top pick.)

It is unlikely that a steel roller coaster would need to undergo millions of dollars of renova-

tions, raising the question of why parks continue to build coasters with wood.

“It seems like we get more ridership with wooden coasters over steel coasters,” Brick explained. “People don’t like going upside down sometimes. Some people don’t like being tossed and turned in super-high twists.

So we decided to go with a wooden coaster, because we feel we can get more people on it.”

Brick also said that since the focus of Lake Compounce was really on families with preteens, a coaster everyone could ride together seemed more appealing.

Not that Boulder Dash is a walk in the park. It’s fast and spirited, with hills and drops that seem to come from nowhere. But it has a genuine playfulness to its thrills, the kind that, rather than leaving you worn and torn, makes you want to come back for more.

Stepping in to lend a hand Region’s appeal for retirees helps staff volunteer clinic for uninsured

The original Volunteers in Medicine clinic in Hilton Head, S.C., was created on the simple concept of using the knowledge and time of retired doctors and other M O medical personnel to treat the uninsured.

But as more sites have opened — 77 nationwide — many clinics have found that recruiting retired physicians has been a bit of a challenge.

Not so in Bend, which like Hilton Head draws retirees by the golf-cart load. Central Oregon’s emergence as a retirement destination, in particular for those seeking an active lifestyle, has helped provide the VIM clinic on Neff Road in Bend with a steady work force.

“This is a place where pro-

fessionals like to retire,” said Clinic Executive Director Kat Mastrangelo. “When we look at where we stand compared to other clinics, we’re doing really well. I think we’re second to the original clinic in N E Y Hilton Head as far as the number of retired physicians.”

VIM clinics provide free or low-cost health care to a specific slice of the population: the uninsured who don’t qualify for public safety net programs such as the Oregon Health Plan but don’t make enough money to be able to purchase their own insurance.

The clinics are funded primarily through charitable donations and keep their overhead low by relying on volunteers to do everything from answering phones to performing medical exams.

Hot-yoga enthusiasts prefer to sweat it out

By Lois K. Solomon Sun Sentinel (Florida)

The last thing many Americans crave in August is a heated room.

But in pursuit of a FITN yoga trend that promises mental and physical benefits, many are packing into scorching, humid studios, where the temperature is elevated to 95 degrees or higher.

Some traditional yoga teachers believe heated rooms can hurt the practitioner more than help. But hot-yoga enthusiasts

say they have never felt so good: their backs have stopped hurting, they lose weight, their digestion improves and they have energy and vigor they E S S had lacked for years.

“Once you go hot, you don’t want to go back,” said Lauryn Moret-Glass, 29, a social worker who takes classes at least three times a week at Hot Yoga of Delray, a 2-year-old studio in Delray Beach, Fla. “You become addicted, but it’s a healthy addiction.”

f the more than 1 million people who begin cancer treatment each year, all have one thing in common. Their treatment was almost certainly MEDI developed through clinical trials.

Clinical trials give doctors a road map for how best to deal with every type of cancer. These research studies can be used to answer myriad questions, from whether a new drug works to what type of surgery is needed.

“There will be no breakthrough in cancer, no cure for cancer, without clinical tri-

als,” said Dr. Mark Kris, an oncologist at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York.

But the system for running clinical trials in this country is in shambles, experts say. And because they are C I N E so important in determining how cancer is treated, without reform, progress in treating cancer could stall.

The problems are many. The bureaucracy for putting a clinical trial together is so unwieldy that by the time some trials report results, the science is already outdated. There is not enough funding for trials. Physicians have few incentives to participate, and many decide it’s too

burdensome. Partly because physicians are not participating, few patients sign up; many studies are not done just because there are too few people to study.

In a report last spring, the Institute of Medicine, a leading authority in medicine, concluded that “the system for conducting cancer clinical trials in the United States is approaching a state of crisis.” Noting that cancer is the second-leading cause of death in the United States, the report cautioned, “if the clinical trials system does not improve its efficiency and effectiveness, the introduction of new treatments for cancer will be delayed and patient lives will be lost unnecessarily.”

Researchers: It is possible Get Back to Your Life to get sick of chocolate S A C R O I L L I A C PA I N H E R N I AT E D D I S C S C I AT I C A

By Karen Kaplan Los Angeles Times

They say that laughter is the best medicine, but some people might endorse chocolate instead.

The dark variety has even been shown to reduce blood pressure better than a placebo. So if your doctor prescribed a daily dose of dark chocolate to keep hypertension at bay, would your first instinct be to head straight to Costco and buy a case of candy bars?

Those who answered “yes” might get stuck with leftovers, Australian researchers warned in the British Medical Journal.

Karin Ried and her colleagues from the University of Adelaide have spent a good amount of time investigating chocolate’s ability to

treat hypertension. One of their studies found that dark chocolate worked better than a placebo at getting systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure under control. Another study compared the ability of dark chocolate and a tomato extract pill to reduce blood pressure among people classified as prehypertensive. The researchers reported a startling finding: Some people didn’t like taking chocolate as medicine.

Yes, you read that correctly — it is possible to get sick of chocolate.

While 100 percent of study participants said they would be willing to keep on taking the tomato extract pill every day, only 73 percent said the same for dark chocolate.

The skinny on helping children gain weight

GOOD FOR YOU Honeydew melons are packed with vitamin C and few calories Most of the honeydew melons you’ll see in this area come from California, and the sweet fruit’s peak season is now upon us.

Honeydew melons have a good amount of vitamins and few calories. A wedge, about an eighth of a good-sized melon, packs about half of your daily recommended dose of vitamin C for just 60 calories.

As a bonus, you’ll also get a dose of potassium, an electrolyte that helps heart function, and folate, one of the building blocks of new cells.

Watch out: Actually, there’s nothing bad for you here. Enjoy the melons while they last.

Might this picture make you feel full?

By Tia Ghose Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

Sometimes the eyes really are bigger than the stomach, at least where feeling full is concerned.

How hungry we feel after chowing down may depend more on what our eyes tell us we’ve eaten rather than how much we actually consumed.

People shown generous portions of food before a snack report feeling more satisfied several hours after eating — even if they actually ate a smaller amount.

The findings were reported last month at the Society for the Study of Ingestive Behavior in Pittsburgh, Pa. While several studies have shown people’s estimates of food volume affect how much they eat, studies showing that those perceptions alter fullness after a meal are scarcer, said nutritional physiologist Dale Schoeller of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, who was not involved with the study.

“They’re interesting findings,” Schoeller said. “What you eat is affected by a lot of psychological influences — in this case, what you think what you’re eating and what your expectations are for the effect of that food on your body.”

A team led by Jeff Brunstrom, an experimental psychologist at the University of Bristol in Britain, wanted to see how people’s perceptions of food quantity

changed how full they felt hours later. The team gave 32 participants a strawberry-banana smoothie. But first they showed half the participants a heaping pile of two or three bananas and seven to eight plump strawberries, then said those ingredients would be tossed into the blender.

The other group thought just a measly banana and a handful of strawberries would go into its drinks. Afterward, all the participants drank the same size smoothie, which used the smaller portion of fruits.

The group that feasted its eyes on the overflowing pile anticipated having a fuller belly after the snack. And three hours after drinking the smoothies, members of the group shown the bigger pile said they were.

Changing portions In a second experiment, the researchers gave each of the 100 participants a hot bowl of tomato soup rigged with a hidden pump that imperceptibly sucked out or added soup to the bowl. One group ate from a bowl that looked like a pint of soup, but which was slowly drawn down so that participants only ate about 1.3 cups of soup. Those in the other group saw an initially smaller helping, but which seeped more liquid into the bowl, so that people consumed a pint. Two control groups ate the larger and smaller por-

tions without being fooled about the amount.

When tested three hours later, the two groups that thought they consumed a hefty bowl of soup reported being 10 percent more full on average than those who thought they got a skimpy portion of soup, regardless of how much they had actually eaten.

The results show that there’s more to hunger than the physical stomach rumblings.

“We store memories of what we think we’ve consumed and that somehow affects and regulates the hunger we’ve experienced between meals,” Brunstrom said.

It also has implications for foods advertised as low-fat, Schoeller said. “If people are expecting that it’s not going to be very satisfying and also that it’s something they can eat without gaining weight, there is a tendency to eat more of it. And this study suggests that part of that might be related to our perception of how full we are.”

Still, it’s premature to hook a pump to your soup bowl in hopes of tricking yourself into losing weight, Schoeller said. “You don’t know for sure if this translates from a single meal to a chronic effect of 12 weeks of eating smaller meals.”

That’s because physical hunger cues may overpower visual cues once someone has tried to cut calories for a longer period of time, he said.

Go bananas with this quiz

Fast-food diners are bucking the diet trend

By William Weir The Hartford Courant

HARTFORD, Conn. — When Sonic Drive-In opened its first Connecticut franchise last month, it came just in time to serve the fast-food chain’s newest menu item, the Footlong Quarter Pound Coney hot dog.

The beef and pork hot dog is topped with chili and melted cheese. And it is, as the name suggests, one quarter of a pound and a foot long: 810 calories (480 from fat), 53 grams of fat (22 grams of which are saturated fat), 1,800 grams of sodium, 56 grams of carbs and 33 grams of protein.

In terms of gluttony, it’s extreme, but hardly alone. KFC made a splash in the spring with its Double Down: two bacon strips, cheese and sauce sandwiched between two pieces of chicken. Last year, the biggest news to come out of the Northeast’s Big E fair was something called the Craz-E Burger, a cheeseburger topped with bacon and placed between two halves of a grilled glazed doughnut.

These are not so much menu offerings but dares and they’re thriving at a time when there’s probably more awareness of nutrition and the dangers of obesity than ever. In fact, it might be this awareness that’s spurring on the so-called “stunt foods.”

Kelly Brownell, director of Yale University’s Rudd Center for Food Policy, says these extreme meals are singling

“They want to appeal to young men and to the contrarians who don’t want to be told what to eat by nutrition people,” he says. That these restaurants often offer more healthful fare doesn’t lessen Brownell’s criticism.

A spokesperson for Sonic said no one was available to talk about the quarter-pound hot dog or the criticism of it.

She did, though, e-mail some nutrition facts about the restaurant that pointed out that Sonic “offers menu options for health conscious consumers who long to have fun with their food, and watch calories too.”

The extreme dishes are still anomalies, but Brownell fears that the extra-large portions and fatty content will become the norm. When McDonald’s rolled out the Big Mac in 1967, the mere size of it was an attention-getter. If it came out today, though, its 540 calories and 29 grams of fat would barely raise an eyebrow.

It’s downright prim compared to an order of Five Guys’ large fries, boasting 1,471 calories and 71 grams of fat.

Today’s pediatricians are far busier counseling overweight children. But underweight children — often fussy eaters who have little interest in food — can be just as frustrating and worrisome.

Parents think they know the solution: more food. But that’s often not necessary and can set the stage for unhealthy habits. Some children simply have a genetic tendency toward thinness. Others may appear scrawny until their weight gain catches up with a sudden increase in height.

“There could be medical reasons, but sometimes it’s also behavioral,” said Dr. KeithThomas Ayoob, a professor of pediatrics at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York. “Kids can realize that they get a lot of … attention from parents when they don’t eat.”

Technically, a child older than 2 is underweight if his or her body mass index (a measure of height and weight that can be calculated online at www.cdc.gov/healthy weight/assessing/bmi or at the doctor’s office) falls below the fifth percentile. If you’re concerned, talk to your doctor; in the meantime, here are some ways to help an underweight child pack on the pounds.

Look at your child’s fist.

That’s about the size of his or her stomach. Parents can overestimate how much it can hold.

A good measure is 1 tablespoon of food per age of child, said psychologist Michelle Mastin, program director of the intensive feeding program at Helen DeVos Children’s Hospital in Grand Rapids, Mich. So if a 2-year-old is offered three different foods per meal, he should eat a total of about six tablespoons.

Stay flexible — but consistent. If your child likes eating dry cereal and having milk in a glass afterward, so be it, Ayoob said. It ends up in the stomach either way. But get your kids on a regular schedule for meals and snacks “to train their appetites,” he said. Limit the time for meals and snacks, and don’t allow grazing between scheduled feedings.

Go high-cal, high-quality.

Giving a thin child food every time he asks is “a recipe for manipulation,” said Ayoob.

Don’t give something just because it’s high calorie. “Instead, focus on high-calorie foods (fats) that bring some nutrition along for the ride,” Ayoob said. “Add nuts and trail mix to frozen yogurt. Give an OK to the chocolate milk. Hit the peanut butter jar, but spread it on whole-grain breads and crackers.”

How to eat: The easiest and, arguably, the best way is to simply cut it into wedges. You can also use honeydew in fruit salads, or top with cottage cheese or yogurt for a more filling snack.

M Trials Continued from F1 Against that backdrop, Central Oregon medical clinics are pushing to complete and open more clinical trials for cancer patients.

Bend Memorial Clinic and St. Charles Health System both run clinical trials. St. Charles recently partnered with a national organization to add dozens more.

“I want every patient who walks through the door to have a clinical trial opportunity,” said Dr. Bill Martin, an oncologist at St. Charles Health System and medical director of cancer research. “I can’t think of one (type of) cancer where there isn’t an opportunity to do better than we are now.”

Layers of bureaucracy Before a clinical trial begins, there are multiple steps to ensure it answers an important question and is conducted in a manner that will answer that question while not endangering patients. Going through the process of beginning a clinical trial, experts say, is a hugely cumbersome endeavor.

“Many, many regulations (have been approved) as a result of individual cases,” said Dr. Archie Bleyer, an oncologist and medical director of clinical research at St. Charles who has led more than 100 cancer clinical trials. “It’s layer upon layer of protections because of jurisprudence and legislation.”

Bleyer said the complex bureaucracy has led to a system in which the question being asked is sometimes out of date before the trial even starts. For example, a clinical trial might seek to test a drug only to have a possibly better drug put on the market before the trial’s beginning.

Then add on the time it takes to conduct the trial (often years, particularly with follow-ups to see how patients do after treatment), analyze the results and publish them. “It may prove something we should know,” Bleyer said, “but we’ve moved on.”

It took nearly two years, on average, from the time researchers put an initial idea on paper until they began enrolling patients in cancer studies, one study found.

In that time, researchers had to complete about 300 individual steps.

Some trials took even longer, more than five years, to get going.

“There are so many pieces in the system that have to work together,” said David Dilts, a lead author on that study who is now the director of clinical research at Oregon Health & Science University. Dilts, trained as a systems engineer, sat on the Institute of Medicine committee that reported on the state of clinical trials, and he has done much of the research showing how dysfunctional the system has become.

On the committee, he said, there was “no disagreement on how bad it was. That was universal.” The report’s introduction noted that just 60 percent of trials sponsored by the National Cancer Institute, which funds most publicly initiated trials, were completed.

No incentives On the key problem of physician and patient participation, studies suggest that only

Public vs. private clinical trials All of the cancer clinical trials at Bend Memorial Clinic and the vast majority of new cancer trials at St. Charles Health System are sponsored by pharmaceutical companies.

Though such companies do valuable research, particularly in the development of new drugs to better fight cancer, they are only part of the system for conducting clinical trials.

The other part, so-called publicly sponsored clinical trials, are those run by the National Cancer Institute. Publicly sponsored trials often answer questions pharmaceutical companies will not: Does a drug from one company work better than a similar drug from another company, or could patients do just as well without a particular treatment? These trials, said Dr. Archie Bleyer, an oncologist at St. Charles, “have determined the standard of care” for patients. “They have provided us with far more important information than what (pharmaceutical companies) have done.”

Still, St. Charles is shifting from performing only publicly sponsored trials to performing both those and industry sponsored trials.

They are not alone. In surveys, 42 percent of practices nationwide were planning to limit public trials, said David Dilts, head of clinical research at the Oregon Health & Science University’s Knight Cancer Institute. The reason: money.

Publicly sponsored trials reimburse at $2,000 per patient; industry-sponsored trials run between $5,000 and $10,000 per patient. Dilts estimates it costs between $6,000 and $8,000 to enroll and follow each patient on a clinical trial.

“You can’t afford to do nothing but (public) trials.”

Bleyer said the addition of industry-sponsored trials was in part because the hospital wanted to be able to offer patients the option to go on new, untested drugs. But, he said, another reason was that “we have to pay for research. We can’t afford to do just (public) anymore.”

Bleyer said the hospital was not getting rid of its public trials, just adding to the total number of trials.

At BMC, Dr. Bill Schmidt said the clinic has concentrated on pharmaceutical trials because the publicly sponsored trials have, until recently, asked less interesting research questions. Public trials “were reinventing the wheel for a long time.” For his patients, he said he felt it was better to offer new treatments coming through pharmaceutical trials.

Schmidt said BMC is in the process of trying to affiliate with OHSU and will likely offer publicly sponsored trials in the future. He said the most important thing is to offer different options for patients. “The more things you can have available within your means, the better off it is for everybody.”

Average time to develop a clinical trial The National Cancer Institute is the largest sponsor of clinical trials in the world.

Unfortunately, experts say, the bureaucracy required to begin a clinical trial through the agency is extensive, and trials often will open to patients years after they are originally initiated. Recent years have gotten worse.

3 to 5 percent of all cancer patients nationwide enroll in a clinical trial.

At St. Charles, between 10 and 20 patients per year, representing about 1 or 2 percent of all patients, have participated historically, Martin said.

Many things get in the way.

Some patients fear a clinical trial, believing they are being experimented on. Sometimes logistics get in the way: Martin spoke of a woman who would have been a great candidate for a trial, but she lives in Burns and could not make the six-hour round trip to Bend for weekly infusions of a test drug.

A lack of incentives for physicians and institutions, particularly financial incentives, is an-

other key issue.

Physicians are paid for enrolling patients in clinical trials, though not enough to cover their costs, they say.

As an example of the complexity of running a clinical trial, Kris, the oncologist at Memorial Sloan-Kettering, described a recent trial he had to close early and without answers. It was designed to test a targeted therapy for people with a specific genetic mutation found in about half of all lung cancers.

To test for the genetic mutation, doctors needed to take a second tissue biopsy, an invasive procedure that involves removing tissue from the lung.

That biopsy, which is not typically part of lung cancer treat-

Self-hypnosis training may help children with Tourette’s syndrome, study suggests

By Jeannine Stein Los Angeles Times

Children and teens with Tourette’s syndrome found help for their tics via sessions of selfhypnosis, according to a study published online in the Journal of Developmental & Behavioral Pediatrics.

The study included 33 participants ages 6 to 19 who had tic disorders. Each of the participants took part in self-hypnosis sessions that included watching a video of a boy going through self-hypnosis training and relaxation techniques. Then the child was given some relaxation techniques and instructed to focus on feelings that occurred right before the tic happened, and visualize getting rid of the tic. Study subjects were asked to repeat the exercise at least three times a day as well as keep a calendar of their tic activity. The study in-

Treating Tourette’s Tourette’s syndrome is a neurological disorder that can cause involuntary tics such as coughing, yelling, head jerking and blinking. It’s typically treated with medication, which can have mild to severe side effects such as anxiety, weight gain and sluggishness, but new non-drug treatments are showing promise.

cluded no control group.

Among the participants, 12 reported a dramatic response in tic control after two visits (plus video training), 13 had those results after three visits, and one after four visits.

During the 2½ months of the study, 79 percent of the participants said their tic control had

improved enough that they were satisfied with the technique.

Seven children did not respond to the treatment, four said they felt unmotivated to control their tics, and three were referred to a psychologist or psychiatrist for a more rigorous intervention.

Some similarities exist between self-hypnosis and habit reversal training techniques to reduce tics. Habit reversal training teaches people to become more aware of the urge to tic, then has them engage in a behavior that competes with the tick, such as rhythmic breathing.

In a study published in May in the Journal of the American Medical Association, habit reversal training significantly improved ticking in 53 percent of children, compared with 19 percent of children in a control group who received support therapy and education.

“I want every patient who walks through the door to have a clinical trial opportunity. I can’t think of one (type of) cancer where there isn’t an opportunity to do better than we are now.”

ment, was almost never covered by health insurance. So, though Kris was getting between $5,000 and $10,000 per patient he enrolled, that entire sum was paying for a second biopsy and was not available to cover other costs, including collecting data and following patients.

In addition, Kris said, patients on the trial had to wait until after the second biopsy before having surgery, whereas patients not participating could get surgery right away. “People get very anxious to get their operation,” he said, “so even a few days of waiting for their surgery is not acceptable to them.”

Kris said the center, despite being one of the largest and most reputable in the country, had to close the trial because not enough patients signed up.

Without patients to participate in clinical trials, potentially effective therapies are never tested. The possibility for advances, doctors lament, stalls.

“We have so many new therapies in the wings, and we don’t have bodies for them,” said Dr. Bill Schmidt, an oncologist atBMC. “That’s depressing for a (disease) where you have horrible statistics.”

CELEB RITY M EDICINE Severe postpartum depression usually treated with antidepressants Actresses Gwyneth Paltrow and Bryce Dallas Howard revealed last month they both went through bouts of postpartum depression in recent years.

While 70 to 80 percent of new mothers experience baby blues, a mild case of feeling angry, anxious or sad after giving birth, such feelings usually go away within a few days. About 10 percent of mothers experience a much more intense, longerlasting depression, which usually requires counseling or treatment.

According to the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, postpartum depression can occur anytime after birth, but it usually starts one to three weeks after delivery.

It is thought to result from a combination of body, mind and lifestyle factors. Levels

Cosmetic surgery to fix what ails you?

It may be a sign of a mental disorder

By Shari Roan

BMC is involved in three clinical trials, according to the clinic — two for lung cancer and one for breast cancer.

St. Charles, until recently, had about a dozen clinical trials for cancer. Then, this summer, they partnered with a national organization to offer many more. The hospital now plans to have about 100 trials by next year.

The new trials, Martin said, will primarily be for new drugs being tested through pharmaceutical companies. He said he hopes to have more to offer patients, particularly those who do not respond well to conventional therapies.

Martin also said he wants to be able to give patients better information. Almost daily, he says, he talks to women with breast cancer about taking hormone therapy to keep the cancer at bay. One of the first questions to come up, he said, is how long they should be on the therapy.

“We don’t know the answer.”

At BMC, Schmidt said the clinic is also trying to better treat the disease. “This is … real stuff that is meant to impact them now, and then their family and friends,” Schmidt said. “That is the only way to advance cancer (research).”

LOS ANGELES — Several studies show that some people who repeatedly seek cosmetic surgery are afflicted with a mental disorder called body dysmorphic disorder. But undergoing a nip here, tuck there or a poke between the eyes does nothing to improve the mental condition of these people, according to a new study.

Body dysmorphic disorder is a condition in which people become preoccupied with their looks to the point of being obsessed over minor flaws or perceived imperfections. Typically, such people are heavy users of cosmetic surgery. Some doctors are willing to abide by the demands of patients with the disorder even though medical guidelines suggest that such patients undergo psychological counseling instead of cosmetic procedures. An estimated 7 to 8 percent of people who seek cosmetic surgery in the United States have the disorder.

In the new study, researchers sought to find out whether undergoing cosmetic procedures actually improves the symptoms of the disorder. In other words, if you’re a body dysmorphic disorder patient and are obsessed about the bump on your nose and you fix it, will you be less obsessed with your looks?

The study was composed of

of the hormones estrogen and progesterone plummet after giving birth, and that could trigger depression in the same way that hormonal changes during a woman’s monthly cycle can result in mood swings.

Thyroid hormones also drop after delivery, which could result in mood swings, nervousness, fatigue, sleep trouble and tension.

Another major factor, according to the group, is a lack of support from others. Providing a new mother help, particularly with household chores or child care, may reduce her risk of depression. Breastfeeding problems can also trigger depression.

Doctors may treat postpartum depression with counseling or antidepressants.

200 people who had been diagnosed with the disorder. About one-third of the people in the study sought cosmetic surgery or some minimally invasive cosmetic treatment. About one-fifth of the people in the study actually received treatment.

Researchers at Rhode Island Hospital and Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia found that only 2 percent of the procedures seemed to help relieve the symptoms of the disorder. Only 25 percent of the treated patients thought their appearances were improved due to the treatment.

In some patients, the symptoms of body dysmorphic disorder actually worsened.

The researchers also polled 265 cosmetic surgeons and found that 65 percent said they had treated people with the disorder. But only 1 percent of the cases led to improvement in disorder symptoms. People can be successfully treated for the disorder, but the scalpel or syringe isn’t the best method, the authors of the paper said.

“Physicians need to be aware that psychiatric treatments for BDD such as serotonin reuptake inhibitors and cognitive behavioral therapy appear to be effective for what can be a debilitating disorder,” the researchers wrote.

The study appeared in last month’s issue of the Annals of Plastic Surgery.

Continued from F1 In 2008, more than 8,000 individuals volunteered in VIM clinics nationwide, including more than 3,000 retirees. Of those, 351 were retired physicians and 536 retired nurses or nurse practitioners.

Still, a survey of VIM clinics found that, after fundraising, one of their biggest concerns was the recruitment of physicians, and in particular specialists.

“We’re doing a lot more inhouse specialty care because we have retired specialists in orthopedics, cardiology, neurology, gastroenterology, gynecology, who all want to volunteer,” Mastrangelo said. “So now we’re able to take care of a little bit more in house than we were able to do before.”

While the clinic has its fair share of doctors who spent their careers in Bend and retired here, it’s also relying on physicians such as Drs. Allan MacKenzie and Robert Collins, who came to Bend after prestigious careers elsewhere.

Budget cuts mean fewer school nurses

By Anya Martin MarketWatch

Whether your child is in good health or not, a registered nurse at school can recognize medical issues you may have missed and be a powerful advocate to ensure your school has lifesaving equipment.

But because of strapped education budgets, many schools today don’t employ full-time nurses.

And in schools that still have nurses, they’re faced with more specialized tasks, making it important for parents to ask questions at the start of the school year, experts said.

In 2007, about 45 percent of public schools had a full-time nurse and 30 percent had a parttime one, according to the latest data from the National Center for Education Statistics. One in four schools had no nurse at all.

This fall, more school systems have cut back on registered nurses, assigned them to cover more schools or delegated health care activities to less-qualified health professionals, including licensed practical nurses, school secretaries, health administrators and teachers, said Amy Garcia, executive director of the National Association of School Nurses.

“Nineteen states actually have mandates (requiring school nurses), but only four of those provide enough funding at the state level to local school districts,” Garcia said. “It becomes a tough problem.

What do we choose? A math teacher, a coach or a school nurse?”

When Jeannie Edwards started as a school nurse 20 years ago, she said she expected to patch kids up with bandages after minor playground falls, monitor their vaccinations and decide when sick children should be sent home.

Instead, the Dawson County, Ga.-based nurse said she was surprised to find that most kids with sore throats also had teeth problems and needed dental referrals. And though many tasks are routine, school nurses also play a critical role in helping kids

survive emergencies. Edwards discovered that during her first year on the job in 1990, when she tried to save a seemingly healthy kindergartner who collapsed on the playground and died.

“I was devastated because I knew I was there immediately to administer CPR and I had failed,” she said. Edwards kept in touch with the child’s parents, who eventually discovered their son had a rare genetic disorder that causes the heart to stop beating suddenly.

When it comes to your child’s health, the key difference training makes is that a registered nurse knows how to recognize the difference between minor and major health crises, calculate medication amounts and use specialized medical devices, said Monica Collins, school nurse liaison/consultant for Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, which includes three pediatric hospitals and 16 neighborhood clinics.

The National Association of School Nurses advocates for a ratio of at least one full-time registered nurse for every 750 well students, with more nurses needed for student populations with more complex health care needs, Garcia said.

Only 12 states and the District of Columbia met those recommendations in 2009, and 11 states had ratios of one nurse to 2,000 students or more, including Georgia, which has one RN for every 2,317 students.

Vermont topped the list, with one nurse to every 311 students, while Michigan had the worst ratio, with one nurse for every 4,836 students.

School-nurse positions may be funded from local and state taxes, state-run children’s Medicaid programs, and community sponsors, according to NASN. Reductions in school nurses come at a time when the need for them is acute because about 30 percent of children have chronic conditions such as asthma, diabetes or high blood pressure, Collins said.

Pole, pedal, scalpel MacKenzie, 71, trained in orthopedics and pediatrics and spent much of his career running trauma centers for large hospitals in California.

When he started considering retirement in 2003, he and his wife visited a dozen retirement communities from Sparks, Nev., to towns in British Columbia. Avid skiers, they spent much of their winters there until a neighbor suggested that, on their next trip back down to California, they take the scenic route through Bend.

“We started coming here on our way up and down and found it to be a delightful community,” MacKenzie said.

On one trip, they visited Mt. Bachelor ski area and learned about the ski hill’s volunteer host program. “They said, ‘If you move here, you’re on.’ So within the year, we moved here,” he said.

MacKenzie had heard about the VIM model previously but didn’t know there was a local clinic before he arrived in Bend.

“I was still burned out from surgery,” he recalled. “It turned out what I really liked to do was make diagnoses, and here was an opportunity to do that.

They did not expect you to do the surgery.”

The clinic needed more orthopedists, so MacKenzie started volunteering at the clinic every other week. He said it gives him a chance to keep his mind and his skills sharp between skiing and cycling.

“You start losing it incrementally from the time; in my case, you lay down the knife,” he said. “You think that it will be with you for the rest of your life, but each six months that you don’t use it, you lose it exponentially. You can see at least the medical part of your brain atrophying.”

Collins, 68, had been the head of neurology at the UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles until 2004. His daughter, who lives in Seattle, organized a family reunion in Camp Sherman around that time.

“We fell in love with the place,” Collins said. “We were looking to retire and get out of L.A.” Collins and his wife bought a house in Sisters in 2004, where he could pursue his hobby of creating sculptures as well as hike and play golf. When he arrived here, he sought out the clinic and volunteered.

“I think VIM has a way of keeping the volunteers and doctors going,” he said. “To me, going to VIM is like going to the theater. It’s just very enjoyable.”

Joy of giving For both Collins and MacKenzie, part of the draw of VIM is being able to help patients while avoiding many of the burdens that have encumbered physicians in recent years. There are no fights with insurance companies or endless paperwork, no late-night calls to the emergency room, no concerns about falling reimbursement rates.

“There’s no amount of money they could pay me to go

Dr. Allan MacKenzie volunteers at Bend’s Volunteers in Medicine clinic. “It turned out what I really liked to do was make diagnoses, and here was an opportunity to do that,” he said. back into that again,” Collins said.

“You get the pleasure of practicing medicine with none of the hassle.

And the pleasure you get of going there is entirely through the people and the patients.”

It’s no different for physicians, he said, than for others who volunteer in other areas of the community.

“Volunteer physicians are not special. They are no different than volunteer carpenters who build homes for others, or those who work in search and rescue, or hospitals, libraries, food banks and schools,” he said. “The service is its own reward. Volunteers are the threads that quilt communities into a civilization.”

MacKenzie agrees that the rewards from volunteering are much different from working for financial reasons.

“You wouldn’t get the same jollies or the same satisfaction that you get,” MacKenzie said. “The patients at VIM are incredibly appreciative and grateful for what you do for them.”

MacKenzie has volunteered in remote places of the world, such

as the Canadian Arctic or rural Mexico. Yet he said he’s never come across so many patients who have never seen a doctor before than in Central Oregon.

With high uninsured rates in the region, many simply avoid going to the doctor altogether.

Health care reform Many of those may find insurance easier to afford down the road as health care reform measures kick in. But as much as VIM clinics would like to be put out of business, clinic directors expect there will always be people without coverage.

Mastrangelo said most of VIM’s 1,500 patients aren’t likely to see big changes in their health care for another three years.

“Even after that, it’s not going to change a lot,” she said. “You’re still going to have people that even though the health care insurance is subsidized, they’re not going to be able to afford it.”

She also believes the clinic may have to help fill the demand for primary care in the community

as the number of people with insurance increases. The clinic is also working on ways to expand access to dental care and mental health services locally. And the more physicians and other volunteers the clinic can attract, the more people they can serve.

VIM clinics are now reaching out to various physicians organizations and groups such as AARP to encourage retiring physicians and other health care professionals to think about volunteering their skills in their local communities. VIM, she said, can also help draw retirees to the area, providing another perk for physicians who want to stay engaged.

“It’s something we would really like for Bend. You can retire here. There are so many ways to be active, not just physically, but you can just stay vital in so many ways,” Mastrangelo said. “You don’t have to travel to a Third World country to do that. You can do it right here.”

F EXERCISE TIPS PILATES

Double leg lower lift

2

1

Finding pain relief through movement

By Jeannine Stein Los Angeles Times

Deb Bowen, a Rebound Pilates instructor certified by the national organization Pilates Method Alliance, demonstrates some basic Pilates moves. Pilates uses controlled movements to increase strength and flexibility and is particularly focused on the muscles of the torso. This exercise can be done individually or you can try all eight, which are running every other week in The Bulletin through Sept. 23.

The double leg lower lift strengthens the core muscles in the abdomen.

How to do it: Lie on the floor or a mat. Stack hands behind your head, palms pressing into head and head pressing into palms. Extend legs straight up in the air, bent at the hip (1). Roll up to the lower tips of your shoulder blades and pull stomach in to create a strong and tense upper body. Lower legs about two or three inches, or as far as you can without losing form or letting stomach pop out (2). Inhale as you lower your legs; exhale as you raise them.

Exercise tool melds agility and stability

By Vicky Hallett The Washington Post

The newest fitness tool coming to a gym near you looks like a tire stolen from an alien automobile.

But more important, it resembles the love child of the step and the Bosu, two of the most popular pieces of exercise equipment in recent history.

Even if you’ve managed to avoid sweating for years, you’re probably at least acquainted with the cardio-conducive step platform and the blue squishy domes meant to test your balance. The two concepts are melded in the form of Step360, which fitness company Gaiam recently debuted at a convention in Los Angeles.

It was conceived in 2006, when entrepreneur John Cole was practicing karate at his San Diego dojo, and he wanted to find a more challenging way to practice standing on one leg while kicking. He glued two inner tubes together and topped them with a plank of wood, and the basic idea was launched — and was more effective than he ever imagined.

The wobble forces your core muscles to engage, while the surface on top allows users’ feet to be level, which mimics the real world.

Gaiam teamed up with Cole because he’d stumbled across the ultimate combo of the familiar and the innovative, says company president Bill Sondheim. Gaiam, which gussied up the concept by developing a sleeker, easier-tomass-produce device, sees endless potential among consumers, particularly baby boomers.

“The largest demographic is the slightly aging group looking for fresh, new ways to exercise that are safe and not intimidating,” Sondheim says.

Fabio Comana, a professor of exercise science at San Diego State University, noticed in research on Step360 that it filled a gap.

“When I was looking at conventional balance-training devices, I saw they were too advanced,” says Comana, who is also an exercise physiologist with the American Council on Exercise. His progression for students looking to improve their balance had been: solid ground, an Airex pad (made of a foam you sink into) and then a Bosu. “That’s a leap of faith,” he says, since a curved surface is much more treacherous.

(Expect infomercials by January, and you’ll be seeing Step360 in stores such as Target, Walmart and Dick’s Sporting Goods in fall 2011.)

Notches on Step360 allow users to hook in resistance bands.

For more than a decade, Cheryl Clark has lived with the chronic pain that accompanies fibromyalgia. After years of suffering with severe flu-like aches and pains, she finally found some relief — but it didn’t come from a pill or a shot. It came from exercise.

Several times a week, Clark heads to the warm-water pool and the gym at Casa Colina Centers for Rehabilitation in Pomona, Calif. Her pain, she says, has gone from a six or seven on a 10-point scale down to a one or two.

“It would kill me to walk from the car to the doctor’s office. I was using a cane. I didn’t have the mindset that moving is the key. … I really got my life back.”

Movement-based therapies such as yoga, tai chi, qigong and more mainstream forms of exercise are gaining acceptance in the world of chronic pain management. Many pain clinics and integrative medicine centers now offer movement-based therapy for pain caused by cancer and cancer treatments, rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia, multiple sclerosis, and other diseases and conditions.

In one study, 30 men and women with chronic low back pain took hatha yoga classes for 12 weeks or were part of a control group that had standard care. Those in the yoga group had substantial decreases in pain compared with the control group, which had almost no change. At the end of the study, published in 2009 in the journal Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine, the yoga group was also using fewer analgesics and opiates for pain, and reported greater overall improvement in quality of life.

As for why movement can help tamp down pain, some health professionals believe it has to do with the overall benefits of helping people become active again.

“When pain gets chronic, people do less,” says Kathleen Sluka, professor of physical therapy and rehabilitation science at the University of Iowa.

“Their muscles get weaker and their bodies get tighter, and they think about pain a lot more. Movement techniques help them relax, make them stronger and reduce stress levels, so maybe they can think about something other than pain for a bit.”

Further, common elements of yoga and tai chi include slow, rhythmic movement and diaphragm-focused breathing. Those elements alone may trigger a relaxation response.

People participate in the hot-yoga class at Anuttara Yoga Shala in Deerfield Beach, Fla. The studio is heated to relax the muscles and help release stress.

Hot yoga Continued from F1 Moret-Glass said she had crippling pain from herniated disks due to a car accident in 1999. She went to chiropractors and massage therapists for 10 years, to no avail. After a few hot-yoga classes, she said, her back spasms dissipated.

A 2008 study by Yoga Journal found that 15.8 million Americans, or about 7 percent of the population, say they practice yoga. But few researchers have studied the physical and mental effects of hot yoga, leaving the anecdotes of practitioners as the main guide to its benefits or harms.

(Many Central Oregon yoga studios offer hot-yoga classes.

Search online for “yoga Central Oregon” and contact the studios for specifics.)

The hot classes take many forms. In Bikram yoga, perhaps the most famous form of hot yoga, the room is heated to 105 degrees with at least 40 percent humidity, and students perform a set series of 26 copyrighted poses over 90 minutes.

Jimmy Barkan, of Pompano Beach, Fla., created a more flexible series of postures with the Barkan method of hot yoga in 2002; studios in 12 states and five countries now use his technique.

Teachers at some new South Florida hot studios say they found the Bikram style too rigid and decided to develop their own sweaty yoga formats.

At Anuttara Yoga Shala in Deerfield Beach, Fla., owner Philip Christodoulou was trained in Bikram but now advocates “warm” yoga, or a 95-degree room, and a slow vinyasa, or flowing series of poses, that he said makes the body loose and pliable.

“The connective tissue is difficult to access, and to stretch it, you need gravity, time and heat,” said Christodoulou, who opened his studio a year ago.

A class attendee, covered in sweat, takes a water break at Anuttara Yoga Shala.

“The fact is that hot yoga does not make you more flexible or help you sweat out toxins or lose weight.

It is just dehydrating.”

— Colleen Gallagher, Iyengar yoga teacher in Florida “Sweat cools the body, and when there’s too much cooling, you start shivering. We are just augmenting the body’s heat loss with external heat.”

Too hot?

Some yoga teachers, however, say this additional heat is unnecessary and potentially harmful.

Colleen Gallagher, an Iyengar yoga teacher in Delray Beach, said a myth persists that hot yoga helps the body detoxify.

“The fact is that hot yoga does not make you more flexible or help you sweat out toxins or lose weight. It is just dehydrating,” Gallagher said. “In India, when it is hot outside, they do poses to cool the body. In fact, the Indians would be amazed at the waste of energy using all that heat.”

Heat increases the heart rate and may not be appropriate for

pregnant women or people with cardiac problems, high blood pressure or autoimmune disorders, Gallagher said.

Leslie Glickman, a certified instructor from Boca Raton, Fla., with 15 years of teaching experience, said a yoga room should be warm, with temperatures in the 80s, not 90s or higher.

“If the heat is extreme, it creates too much stress on the body,” said Glickman. “You expend a lot of energy trying to cool down. The best yoga practice is where the body can feel the effects without overdoing it.”

Still, hot yoga continues to attract. Mark Gendal, of Coral Springs, Fla., said he has exercised almost every day for the past 35 years but remained stiff until he discovered hot yoga two years ago.

Gendal, 54, an optometrist, credits the practice with improving his posture and flexibility and calming his mind so he speaks more clearly, listens better and generally slows down in life.

Joanne Dee also is addicted to the heat. One recent day, she attended two hot classes — one in the morning and one in the late afternoon.

“It’s a great stress reliever,” said Dee, 46, a banker. “I can deal with Florida heat so much better now.”

NOTICE TO RESIDENTIAL TENANTS The property in which you are living is in foreclosure. A foreclosure sale is scheduled for November 19, 2010. Unless the lender who is foreclosing on this property is paid, the foreclosure will go through and someone new will own this property. The following information applies to you only if you occupy and rent this property as a residential dwelling under a legitimate rental agreement. The information does not apply to you if you own this property or if you are not a residential tenant. If the foreclosure goes through, the business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale has the right to require you to move out.

The buyer must first give you an eviction notice in writing that specifies the date by which you must move out The buyer may not give you this notice until after the foreclosure sale happens. If you do not leave before the move-out date, the buyer can have the sheriff remove you from the property after a court hearing. You will receive notice of the court hearing. FEDERAL LAW REQUIRES YOU TO BE NOTIFIED IF YOU ARE OCCUPYING AND RENTING THIS PROPERTY AS A RESIDENTIAL DWELLING UNDER A LEGITIMATE RENTAL AGREEMENT, FEDERAL LAW REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU NOTICE IN WRITING A CERTAIN NUMBER OF DAYS BEFORE THE BUYER CAN REQUIRE YOU TO MOVE OUT. THE FEDERAL LAW THAT REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU THIS NOTICE IS EFFECTIVE UNTIL DECEMBER 31, 2012. Under federal law, the buyer must give you at least 90 days' notice in writing before requiring you to move out. If you are renting this property under a fixed-term lease (for example, a six-month or one-year lease), you may stay until the end of your lease term. If the buyer wants to move in and use this property as the buyer's primary residence, the buyer can give you written notice and require you to move out after 90 days, even if you have a fixed-term lease with more than 90 days left. STATE LAW NOTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS IF THE FEDERAL LAW DOES NOT APPLY, STATE LAW STILL REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU NOTICE IN WRITING BEFORE REQUIRING YOU TO MOVE OUT IF YOU ARE OCCUPYING AND RENTING THE PROPERTY AS A TENANT IN GOOD FAITH. EVEN IF THE FEDERAL LAW REQUIREMENT IS NO LONGER EFFECTIVE AFTER DECEMBER 31, 2012, THE REQUIREMENT UNDER STATE LAW STILL APPLIES TO YOUR SITUATION. Under state law, if you have a fixed-term lease (for example, a six-month or one-year lease), the buyer must give you at least 60 days' notice in writing before requiring you to move out.

You must mail or deliver your proof not later than October 20, 2010 (30 days before the date first set for the foreclosure sale). Your proof must be in writing and should be a copy of your rental agreement or lease. If you do not have a written rental agreement or lease, you can provide other proof, such as receipts for rent you paid. ABOUT YOUR SECURITY DEPOSIT Under state law, you may apply your security deposit and any rent you paid in advance against the current rent you owe your landlord. To do this, you must notify your landlord in writing that you want to subtract the amount of your security deposit or prepaid rent from your rent payment. You may do this only for the rent you owe your current landlord. If you do this, you must do so before the foreclosure sale. The business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale is not responsible to you for any deposit or prepaid rent you paid to your landlord. ABOUT YOUR TENANCY AFTER THE FORECLOSURE SALE The business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale may be willing to allow you to stay as a tenant instead of requiring you to move out. You should contact the buyer to discuss that possibility if you would like to stay. Under state law, if the buyer accepts rent from you, signs a new residential rental agreement with you or does not notify you in writing within 30 days after the date of the foreclosure sale that you must move out, the buyer becomes your new landlord and must maintain the property. Otherwise, the buyer is not your landlord and is not responsible for maintaining the property on your behalf and you must move out by the date the buyer specifies in a notice to you.
