BIG PROBLEMS IN SMALL PACKAGES

By Keith Chu

Several species, including this New Zealand mudsnail, are causing headaches in Oregon waterways

tiny but troublesome snail has made an appearance at the mouth of the Crooked River. New Zealand mudsnails, as small as the tip of a ballpoint pen, can cause havoc in the food web of aquatic systems and possibly lead to smaller, less-nourished fish populations. With biologists uncovering snails in the Central Oregon river this summer, officials are urging anglers and others to help prevent the further spread of the snails.

“A perfect invader, that’s what I call them,” said Rick Boatner, aquatic invasive species coordinator with the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife. “They’re small, they’re cryptic in color, and they’re asexual so it just takes one to start a population.” And the mudsnails aren’t the only unwelcome aquatic invader biologists have discovered in area waterways this year — Chinese mystery snails showed up at the Crane Prairie Reservoir, while non-native crayfish are kicking out their local counterparts

New Zealand mudsnails, which grow to about 5 millimeters, first showed up in the U.S. in 1987, in Idaho sections of the Snake River. They eat algae and can disrupt the food chain in waterways, and spread easily because they stick to boots or other gear. They’re fast for snails and could probably move a meter in a minute, estimated Mark Sytsma of Portland State University. in the John Day River. It’s not surprising to find the mudsnails — which are, in fact, native to New Zealand lakes and streams — in a new spot, Boatner said. “It’s kind of expected, because that’s where our fishing is being done,” he said. Anglers — or biologists — can easily spread mudsnails, which will attach themselves to boots and other fishing gear. “They’re so small, and so light, you never even notice it,” he said.

WASHINGTON — U.S. Rep. Peter DeFazio, D-Springfield, wants an investigation of forest contractors who use foreign employees to win federal stimulus contracts, in response to a series of articles in The Bulletin that spotlighted the practice. Forest contractors have long used foreign workers, but the practice drew special scrutiny when companies with foreign workers won federal stimulus contracts by sharply underbidding competitors that did not use immigrant labor. DeFazio “I find it hard cited The Bulletin stories as to believe impetus for investigation of that federal the H-2B visa program, in a contractors letter sent Friday to U.S. Labor paying Department Acting Inspector prevailing General Daniel Petrole.

In an interview on Wednesday, DeFazio said he’s long been critical of forest contractors that take advantage of foreign workers. See Visas / A5

Rusty crayfish, confirmed this summer in the John Day River, can easily kick the native signal crayfish out of its burrows. The aquatic invader, native to Ohio and other areas in the eastern United States, could have been introduced to the area as live bait, or used as part of a classroom science experiment and then dumped in the water.

Chinese mystery snails, recently identified in Crane Prairie Reservoir, grow to be 2 to 3 inches in size. They’re originally from eastern Russia and Asia, and are often sold in the pet trade because they eat algae from aquarium walls and rocks. Some can carry a parasite that causes an itchy rash.

Neigborhood has bigger issues than mosque By Nicole Santa Cruz Los Angeles Times

NEW YORK — Politicians have deemed the area around New York’s “ground zero” hallowed ground. Protesters have paraded signs proclaiming, “No sacrilege at holy ground,” and others have called it the site of a “sacred burial.” And it’s true that the neighborhood, which many New Yorkers say is an inappropriate site for a mosque, hosts inescapable reminders of the Sept. 11, 2001, at-

tacks that felled the twin towers of the former World Trade Center and killed nearly 3,000 people. But the area also looks like any other Manhattan neighborhood, one on the rebound dotted with bodegas and bars. Though it’s been the focus of a national debate over a proposed Islamic community center and mosque, the neighborhood — the fastestgrowing on the island — isn’t just trying to recover from Sept. 11; it’s also trying to reinvent itself.

A man passes an empty store and one that’s going out of business in Lower Manhattan last month.

WASHINGTON — In proposing an economic package this week that includes spending $50 billion on roads, rail lines and other projects, President Barack Obama opened the fall election season by doing what he has done from the A N A LY S I S first days of his administration: arguing that stimulating the economy today and reordering it for decades to come are basically the same thing. In this way, Obama risked confusing the voters — and not for the first time. By consistently conflating short-term and long-term economic goals, the president and his Democratic Party may have missed an opportunity to explain the crucial difference between the two, and they have all but ensured that voters this fall will give them credit for neither.

Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — It’s a Wednesday morning, and Zenaida Tan is warming her students up with a little exercise in “Monster Math.” That’s Tan’s name for math problems with monstrously big numbers. While most third-graders are learning to multiply two digits by two digits, Tan makes her class practice with 10 digits by two. Her students pick apart the problem on the board — 7,850,437,826 x 56 — with the enthusiasm of game show contestants. The answer comes minutes later in a singsong unison: “Four hundred and thirty-nine billion, six hundred and twentyfour million.” Congratulations, Tan tells them, for solving it con ganas. That’s Spanish for “with gusto,” a phrase she picked up from “Stand and Deliver,” a favorite film of hers about the late Jaime Escalante, the remarkably successful math teacher at Garfield High School in East L.A. The Los Angeles Unified School District has hundreds of Jaime Escalantes — teachers who preside over remarkable successes, year after year, often against incredible odds, according to a Los Angeles Times analysis. But nobody is making a film about them. Most are like Zenaida Tan, working in obscurity. Frequently, even their own colleagues and principals don’t know who they are.

Value-added analysis As part of an effort to shed light on teachers’ work, the Times has released a database of roughly 6,000 third- through fifth-grade teachers, ranked by their effectiveness in raising students’ scores on standardized tests of math and English over a seven-year period. The findings are based on an approach called value-added analysis, which is designed to allow fair comparisons of teachers whose students have widely varying backgrounds. Although controversial, the method increasingly has been adopted across the nation to measure the progress students make under different instructors. L.A. Unified has had the underlying data for years but has chosen not to analyze it in this way, partly in anticipation of union opposition. After the Times’ initial report last month showed wide disparities among elementary school teachers, the district moved to use valueadded analysis to guide teacher training. The results of the Times’ anal-

Zenaida Tan, right, instructs students in her third-grade class at Morningside Elementary School in San Fernando, Calif. Experts generally agree that highly effective teachers can overcome the challenges students face in and outside school. But why they’re so successful remains largely a mystery. ysis offer one way to see whether an instructor is helping — or hindering — children in grasping what the state says they should know. The Times found that the 100 most effective teachers were scattered across the city. They varied widely in race, age, years of experience and education level. They taught students who were wealthy and poor, gifted and struggling. In visits to several of their classrooms, reporters found their teaching styles and personalities to differ significantly. They were quiet and animated, smiling and stern. Some stuck to the basics, while others veered far from the district’s often-rigid curriculum. Those interviewed said repeatedly that being effective at raising students’ performance does not mean simply “teaching to the test,” as critics of value-added analysis say they fear. What’s clear from the data is that these teachers have an immediate and profound effect on how much children learn. On average, their students leapt 12 percentile points on tests of English, from the 58th to the 70th. In math, the gains were even greater: a 17 percentile point jump, from 58th to 75th. All in a single year.

Rating teachers The idea of publicly rating teachers by name has generated enormous controversy among educators and experts across the country. The debate has focused on whether the method is sound and the publicity is fair to those with low rankings. Often lost in that discussion are the benefits of singling out those who consistently succeed. Experts have long known that highly effective teachers can overcome the challenges students face both inside and outside of school. But why they

For-profit colleges have increased their lobbying against proposed Education Department rules to cut off federal financial aid to programs whose students take on too much debt for training that provides little likelihood of leading to a well-paying job. In addition to making personal visits to Capitol Hill, executives at the colleges have provided employees with “personalized” letters to send to Washington and urged students to speak out against the proposals. So far, the department has received about 45,000 letters on the proposed “gainful employment” regulations, in the comment period that ends today. Last week, John Sperling, the founder of the nation’s largest for-profit college, the University of Phoenix, e-mailed every member of Congress, seeking help

opposing the regulations, and attached a sample letter to be sent to Education Secretary Arne Duncan, asking him to withdraw them. Donald Graham, the chairman and chief executive of The Washington Post Co., which gets most of its revenue from its Kaplan education business, visited Sen. Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, whose Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee is holding hearings on the for-profit education industry. Under the proposed regulations, announced July 23, forprofit education programs would qualify for federal student aid only if enough former students were repaying their student loans, or if graduates generally earned enough to repay their debts. Many for-profit colleges have urged students, professors and administrators to send in criti-

are so successful — and whether their skills can be passed along to others — remains largely a mystery. Most of the things districts track about teachers — their age, years of experience, education and credentials — do not appear to matter much, at least when it comes to raising students’ performance on tests. What does matter? Is it chemistry, technique, dedication, rigor? Might it be a thousand smaller, almost invisible things, depending on the subject and type of students? Hundreds of books purport to answer those questions, but no clear consensus has emerged.

And few of the competing theories have been rigorously tested, said Thomas Kane, a leading education researcher at Harvard University. “It’s very difficult for an individual teacher to distinguish between the valuable suggestions and the snake oil,” he said. That’s in large part because there is no agreement on how to identify the best teachers. It’s something Kane and other education researchers have spent much of the last decade trying to sort out. In a seminal study in 2008, Kane and a colleague set out to experimentally test the reliability of the value-added approach,

Among other things, some researchers had been concerned about the wide variation in value-added results for individual teachers from year to year, the potential for error in the findings and the possibility that the results would be skewed by how students were assigned to classrooms. In Kane’s experiment, conducted at Los Angeles Unified with administrators’ permission, 156 district teachers who volunteered for the project were randomly assigned to classrooms. Kane and his colleague tried to predict, using value-added analysis, how students would do under those teachers. The projections were then compared with the students’ actual results. The conclusion: Value-added analysis was a strong predictor of how much a teacher would help students improve on standardized tests. The approach also controlled well for differences among students, the study found. With $45 million from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, Kane and other researchers are now following 3,000 teachers in six school districts to see if other types of evaluation — including sophisticated classroom observations, surveys of teachers and reviews of student work — are also good measures of teacher performance. In the meantime, Kane said that, although it is not perfect, “there is currently not a better measure of teacher effectiveness than the value-added approach.”

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan — Pakistani authorities have charged three men with terrorism-related offenses for allegedly helping failed Times Square bomber Faisal Shahzad prepare for the attempted May 1 attack by arranging meetings with top Pakistani Taliban leaders and sending him money, a senior police official in Islamabad said Wednesday. The three men, Shahid Hussain, Shoaib Mughal and Humbal Akhtar, are relatively young, middle-class Pakistanis who have been close friends with Shahzad for several years, said Deputy Inspector Gen. Bin Yamin. They allegedly facilitated Shahzad’s training at Taliban boot camps in Pakistan’s largely ungoverned tribal areas and arranged for him to meet with Pakistani Taliban leader Hakimullah Mehsud. When Shahzad ran short of money in the United States as he prepared for the bombing attempt, the three men sent him $13,000, Yamin said.

CIA torture suits barred Ruling meant to protect state secrets By Charlie Savage New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — A federal appeals court on Wednesday ruled that former prisoners of the CIA could not sue over their alleged torture in overseas prisons because such a lawsuit might expose secret government information. By a 6-to-5 vote, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit dismissed a lawsuit against Jeppesen Dataplan Inc., a Boeing subsidiary accused of arranging flights to transfer captives to other countries for imprisonment and interrogation for the CIA. The American Civil Liberties Union filed the case on

behalf of five former prisoners who say they were tortured in captivity — and that Jeppesen was complicit in that alleged abuse. Judge Raymond Fisher described the case, which reversed an earlier decision, as presenting “a painful conflict between human rights and national security.” But, he said, the majority had “reluctantly” concluded that the lawsuit represented “a rare case” in which the government’s need to protect state secrets trumped the plaintiffs’ need to have a day in court. The ACLU vowed to appeal the Jeppesen Dataplan case to the Supreme Court, which would

present the Roberts court with a fresh opportunity to weigh in on a high-profile test of the scope and limits of presidential power in counter-terrorism matters. It has been more than 50 years since the Supreme Court issued a major ruling on the state-secrets privilege, a judicially created doctrine that the government has increasingly used to win dismissals of lawsuits related to national security, shielding its actions from judicial review. The current case turns on whether the executive can invoke the state-secrets privilege to shut down entire lawsuits, or whether that power should be limited to withholding particular pieces of sensitive information. In April 2009, a three-judge panel on the Ninth Circuit ad-

opted the narrower view, ruling that the lawsuit as a whole should proceed. But the Obama administration appealed to the full San Francisco-based appeals court. A group of 11 of its judges re-heard the case, and a narrow majority endorsed the broader view of executive secrecy powers. “This case requires us to address the difficult balance the state secrets doctrine strikes between fundamental principles of our liberty, including justice, transparency, accountability and national security,” Fisher wrote. “Although as judges we strive to honor all of these principles, there are times when exceptional circumstances create an irreconcilable conflict between them.”

DETROIT MAYOR CALLS FIRES ‘A NATURAL DISASTER’

Lengthy confessions Yamin said the men gave investigators lengthy confessions and had been formally charged with criminal conspiracy to commit terrorism. Though Yamin said the men had been arrested just recently, their detention by Pakistani authorities had been reported after the May 1 attempted car bombing. Shahzad, a 30-year-old U.S. citizen, has pleaded guilty to attempting to detonate an SUV loaded with propane tanks and fertilizer in Times Square. The failed bombing marked the first time the Taliban tried to carry out an attack outside of its homelands in Pakistan and Afghanistan. The son of a retired vice air marshal in the Pakistani air force, Shahzad had been living a suburban lifestyle as a father and financial analyst in Connecticut before his radicalization brought him to Pakistan’s tribal areas for terrorist training. During a court hearing in Manhattan, he told a judge that he saw himself as a “Muslim soldier.”

BELGRADE — A Serbian court on Wednesday said it has dismissed a request from the family of Balkans war-crime suspect Ratko Mladic to officially declare him dead. Belgrade court spokeswoman Gordana Vukovic told reporters the request was rejected June 28 on procedural grounds, but said the family can file a new motion. By law, a person can be declared dead if he or she has not been seen for five years and is at least 70 years old. Mladic is 68 and had suffered from a stroke and cardiovascular problems, the family said. The Bosnian Serb military commander during the 1992-95 war, Mladic has been indicted on genocide charges by the UN war crimes tribunal for the 1995 execution of 8,000 Muslims in Srebrenica and the shelling of Sarajevo. He is believed to be living in Serbia. Failure to bring him before The Hague tribunal remains the single biggest obstacle to closer ties between Serbia and the European Union.

Detroit Mayor Dave Bing and Fire Commissioner James Mack on Wednesday defended the handling of a rash of fires that swept through dozens of city neighborhoods Tuesday. Bing said the combination of 50-mph winds, dry weather and downed power lines contributed to the firestorm and prompted fire officials to call in help from Harper Woods, Warren, Dearborn, Grosse Pointe and Highland Park. “You can never have enough resources — you can do all the planning in the world but when something of this magnitude hits any city, any area, you just have to respond,” Bing said. “Even though there are a lot of people who are naysayers who may say ‘You don’t have enough equipment, you don’t have

N B Tropical storm may become hurricane FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — Say hello to Tropical Storm Igor, which quickly rose up in the Eastern Atlantic on Wednesday and is forecast to be a hurricane within three days. At 2 p.m., it was 80 miles south of the Cape Verde Islands, crawling west at 6 mph with sustained winds of 40 mph. Under the long-range forecast, the system is expected to trek northwest across the Atlantic over the next five days — and still be in the Central Atlantic. At that point, it is projected to be a Category 2 hurricane with sustained winds of almost 100 mph. Early models indicate that it might turn north before it reaches the Lesser Antilles on a path that might reduce the risk to the U.S. East Coast. However, models can’t be trusted at this stage.

Despite pressure, Koran burning a go GAINESVILLE, Fla. — A top general, the secretary of state, the White House and political and religious leaders from around the world have decried a plan by the leader of a small Florida church to burn copies of Islam’s holiest text to mark the 9/11 attacks. The Rev. Terry Jones is not backing down. Jones said at a Wednesday

news conference that he has received much encouragement, with supporters mailing copies of the Koran to his Dove Outreach Center. “As of right now, we are not convinced that backing down is the right thing,” said Jones, 58, who took no questions. The book, according to Jones, is evil because it espouses something other than biblical truth and incites radical, violent behavior among Muslims.

Obama names carp czar for Great Lakes CHICAGO — The White House has tapped a former leader of the Indiana Department of Natural Resources and the Indiana Wildlife Federation as the Asian carp czar to oversee the federal response to keeping the fish out of the Great Lakes. On a conference call Wednesday with Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., and other congressional leaders, President Barack Obama’s Council on Environmental Quality announced the selection of John Goss to lead the near $80 million, multipronged federal attack against Asian carp. “This is a serious challenge, a serious threat,” Durbin said. “When it comes to the Asian carp threat, we are not in denial.” — From wire reports

enough people,’ I just don’t think for a natural disaster, which is really what this was, I don’t think you can appropriately plan for that.” Mack said 58 of the city’s 66 fire companies — 236 firefighters — responded to fires throughout the city Tuesday. Detroit Fire union officials have long complained about the city’s practice of deactivating between eight to 12 fire companies daily because of budget constraints. And Mack said the department is about 20 firefighters understaffed. “Everybody knows we are under budget constraints, so with those budget constraints we are maximizing the equipment that we have and the manpower that we have,” Mack said.aid.

New BP report sheds light, assigns blame By Ian Urbina New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — BP spent months this summer trying to contain the gusher of oil on the floor of the Gulf of Mexico. Now the company is trying to contain the legal and financial fallout from the explosion of the Deepwater Horizon, and on Wednesday it released the results of an internal investigation that mostly pointed fingers at other companies. Conducted by the company’s safety chief, Mark Bly, and a team of about 50 made up of mostly BP employees, the inquiry was initiated almost immediately after the April 20 explosion that killed 11 and spilled almost 5 million barrels of oil into the ocean. The 193-page report is part mea culpa, part public relations exercise, but most of all a preview of BP’s legal argument as it prepares to defend itself against possible criminal or civil charges, federal penalties and hundreds of pending lawsuits. The report deflects attention away from BP and onto its contractors, especially Transocean, which owned the rig, and Halliburton, which performed cement jobs on the well. It also focuses less on decisions that BP made in designing and

drilling the well than on what rig workers did in the hours leading up to the blowout. Many questions remain, including why the blowout preventer failed, who within BP was responsible for key decisions and why more tests were not taken of the cement that should have blocked gas from leaking upward. Though the report faults BP for its role in some smaller decisions that led to the explosion, it highlights as most important eight findings of fault, only one of which places blame on BP. That finding says that BP shared blame with Transocean for having misread pressure tests that foreshadowed the explosion. Transocean, which is conducting its own investigation of the disaster, disagreed, arguing in a statement that well design had played a critical role in the accident and accusing BP of having made “cost-saving decisions that increased risk.” In a news release, Halliburton officials countered: “The well owner is responsible for designing the well program and any testing related to the well. Contractors do not specify well design or make decisions regarding testing procedures as that responsibility lies with the well owner.”

With hope and fear, Chicagoans consider Daley’s exit

Invasive

By Susan Saulny New York Times News Service

CHICAGO — Moments after Mayor Richard Daley announced that he would not seek re-election, a text message popped up on Mary Williams-Taylor’s mobile phone. “Hallelujah!” it read. “Did you hear the good news?” Just ending her shift as a hospital laboratory technician, Williams-Taylor, 50, was instantly struck by feelings of sadness and dread. “Don’t joke,” she wrote back. “This is awful. What are we going to do without Daley? I’m afraid to even think about it.” The two friends and their quick exchange captured the primary emotions that have swept over Chicago since Daley, 68, said he would bow out of the office he has held since 1989: enthusiasm about an opportunity for real change for the first time in decades, alongside a real fear of the unknown.

Leaving a void Because of Daley’s enormous influence over almost every aspect of city life, as well as the length of his tenure, his exit will leave a significant void. All power radiated from Daley, so there will almost certainly be a new power structure here, from the neighborhood level to the City Council and city agencies and all the way to the mayor’s office. Daley has not groomed a successor, leaving no guarantee that the transition will be smooth or that the end result will look anything like what Chicagoans have grown used to over the last 21 years. The political waters are already churning, as though a dam broke, releasing a flood of pent-up would-be mayors. Some people wonder who would have the vision and coalition-building skills to follow Daley and keep the local government steady, particularly in a time of dwindling resources and continuing economic uncertainty.

Economy Continued from A1 Obama is already faced with the reality that voters have, fairly or not, decided that his first big effort to revive the economy, the roughly $800 billion package enacted right after he took office, was a qualified failure, and that anything tagged as further “stimulus” will be cast by Republicans as throwing good money after bad. But that obscures a more fundamental problem facing Obama and the Democratic Party, which stems from decisions they made immediately after taking office in an atmosphere of heightened urgency.

Underlying problem Let’s start with the premise that for the past 35 years or so, American politics from one cycle to the next has largely been defined by a series of recessions, which interrupted periods of sometimes unsustainable growth. The two parties have perennially debated how best to balance tax cuts and government spending to get the economy — to use a signature phrase of the times — “back on track.” At the same time, though, the underlying, longer-term economic problem was coming into focus: the United States was slowly moving away from the industrial age and into a digitized and globally competitive world, and that transformation was threatening to displace the middle class and erode the country’s economic dominance in the decades ahead. There were thoughtful liberals who argued, as far back as the 1980s, that policymakers needed to distinguish in the public mind between basic domestic spending, much of which goes to sustain less affluent and older Americans day to day, and the kind of public investments that might give future workers better

Construction continues at ground zero in New York last week. John Bayles, editor of the neighborhood newspaper, said any debate on building a mosque at the site should focus on property rights and neighborhood revival. “Lower Manhattan is in the middle of this huge rebuilding process,” he said.

Ground zero Continued from A1 Across the street from the former towers site, there’s a twostory Burger King where visitors can get a clear glimpse of the new construction. There is the department store Century 21, which sells everything from sunglasses to shoes, and the St. Paul’s Chapel, which amazingly sustained no damage in the attacks, and the church’s graveyard. The city’s oldest parish, St. Peter’s Roman Catholic Church, is a block away. A mosque is four blocks away and a strip club is two. Like every part of the city, it has its morning and evening surge of commuters, with suited office workers dashing to the underground trains. It has ongoing construction — the workers eating lunches from brown paper sacks — and touristy knickknacks — Statue of Liberty figurines, “I (heart) N.Y.” backpacks — for sale on sidewalks.

Voices from the neighborhood Mark Scherzer, a lawyer, said he has seen the neighborhood make the transition from warehouses and office buildings to a fully functioning residential area complete with dry cleaners and high- and low-end restaurants. After Sept. 11, the neighborhood looked as it did when he arrived three decades ago, struggling to get its footing. “There was nothing,” he said. “There was no life.”

And any construction is good construction, said Scherzer, who welcomes the community center. Scherzer left the area after the attack — pieces of the World Trade Center broke his windows and landed on his apartment balcony — and didn’t return until January 2003. “To see life coming back, that’s something we all crave,” he said. John Bayles, associate editor of the neighborhood newspaper, said any debate on the mosque should focus on property rights and neighborhood revival. “Lower Manhattan is in the middle of this huge rebuilding process,” he said. “Any sort of community center is nothing but positive for the community.” Bayles’ newspaper, the Downtown Express, has published several editorials supporting the community center, which is called Park51. The paper called it a “crucial thread in the diverse and accepting fabric of the Lower Manhattan neighborhood.” Terry Wiederlight, owner of the Fountain Pen Hospital, a pen shop, also remembers when the area used to be full of “junk stores.” Now it’s lined with restaurants and a smoke shop. The business presence lost after Sept. 11 needs to be revived, Wiederlight said, but the types of businesses haven’t been regulated. A strip club called New York Dolls is two blocks from the former Twin Towers site.

In rally mode, Obama steps up jabs at GOP Seeking to rally his struggling party for the final weeks of the midterm election season, President Barack Obama delivered his most partisan speech of the campaign so far on Wednesday, casting Democrats as fighters for the middle class and Republicans as protectors of “millionaires and billionaires” and special interests. Obama called for letting the Bush-era tax cuts for the wealthy expire but making the rate cuts for the middle class permanent. And he suggested Republicans would hold “hostage” the extension of the middle-class rates to get the top rates extended as well. Republican congressional leaders fired back quickly that

access to the new economy. Retooling the education system, installing universal broadband, upgrading rail lines and electrical grids — these were things that only an active government could realistically do, just as an earlier generation of politicians had built the dams and highways that were the ballast of the industrial economy. Getting such projects done justified some tolerable level of public debt, proponents argued, just as a family might consider a steep mortgage on a home in a high-quality school district to be an investment in the children’s success. And yet, little was achieved by way of investing in 21st-century infrastructure, largely because the public never seemed open to the idea of huge new spending.

Obama’s opportunity Recall now the portentous moment when Obama assumed the presidency in 2009. In those first weeks, Obama had an approval rating that reached 70 percent,

Democrats were proposing in effect to raise taxes. And they united around a proposal on Wednesday from Rep. John Boehner of Ohio, the House Republican leader, to cut domestic spending and freeze all tax rates for two years — drawing the battle lines for the campaign’s final weeks. Recalling a campaign visit to Cleveland in 2008, Obama said: “A lot has changed since I came here in those final days of the last election, but what hasn’t is the choice facing this country. It’s still fear versus hope, the past versus the future. It’s still a choice between sliding backward and moving forward.” — New York Times News Service

and he benefited from a clear public consensus that the United States had reached a cataclysmic moment of reckoning in its economic life — and that neither he nor his party had caused it. That was a moment, perhaps, when Obama might have given one of his trademark orations to an anxious public, an opportunity to lay out the different dimensions of the economic crisis in a way that had eluded his predecessors. You could have imagined Obama explaining then that the country had to respond in two related but distinct ways: first by spending hundreds of billions of dollars in the short term to avoid a depression, and second by making a series of large-scale investments over time that would modernize the foundation of the economy. What happened, instead, was this: The administration turned control of the roughly $800 billion stimulus package over to Congress. Congress decided that the most expedient thing to do was to throw every kind of expenditure one could think

zly day, Andy Huguet smoked a cigarette as he pondered his bets. Huguet, who comes to the area only to gamble, said the proposed Islamic community center is coming too soon and the mosque issue is sensitive. The neighborhood remains fragile. “It’s too delicate,” said Huguet, who lives across the East River in Brooklyn. Many New Yorkers agree. Polls have shown that the majority of New Yorkers oppose a mosque so close. Still, the project does have its supporters. At the Dakota Roadhouse bar, next door to the proposed site of the community center, Jeffrey LeFrancois cradled an afterwork cocktail. LeFrancois, who used to live in the area but now works there, said the mosque is a local issue, one that should be hashed out in the neighborhood. He said too many politicians are using it as a way to gain votes. “Most of the opposition is coming from outside the city of New York,” he said, adding that people are already praying at the proposed community center space.

’This place is holy’ Ray Tahlov still believes the area around his barbershop, four blocks away from the Sept. 11 site, is special. There aren’t any reminders of the attacks on his block: no flowers, no candles. A nail salon shares his block, along with a saloon. Still, Tahlov said, “This place is holy.”

of, short-term and long-term, into a single bill, because the public was willing to spend the money right then and the legislative politics required addressing the demands of disparate constituencies. This is what Rahm Emanuel, the White House chief of staff, meant when he said that you “should never let a serious crisis go to waste” — that the stimulus bill had to pack in as much investment as possible, because the chance to spend on such transformative priorities might not come again.

A fateful decision Whether or not this was sound economic policy, it was a fateful decision. The long-awaited teachable moment about the need for long-term investment was lost. Obama would later try, fitfully, to explain the separate need for public investment. But more often, he has done what he did again this week, which is to emphasize the argument that making investments in infrastructure is worthwhile mostly to stimulate the sluggish economy in the short run. The problem with this argument is that it builds support for neither short-term nor long-term spending. Republicans have had considerable success making the very term “stimulus” seem toxic — and since voters see no real distinction between stimulus spending and long-term investment, they are just as likely to see the latter as a waste of tax dollars, too. What all of this means for the country is that even if Obama ultimately succeeds in stabilizing the economy, he faces a political climate that seems to be growing more hostile to the scale of public investment that many economists say the nation needs to keep pace with foreign competitors. And that, you would think, is the very definition of a crisis having gone to waste.

Continued from A1 And then, when people go to a different stream to fish, the snails can drop off and start a new colony at that site. They first appeared in Oregon in the Snake River, he said, and since then have been found in rivers including the Lower Deschutes, Lower Columbia, Umpqua and the Rogue. But anglers can help, Boatner said, by carrying a simple potato scrub brush with them and cleaning off their boots after wading in an area. Or, the snails can be killed by putting the gear in a freezer, or spraying it down with a 50 percent solution of 409 degreaser. Once New Zealand mudsnails settle in a place, however, biologists don’t have a way to get rid of them. And the population can explode. “Mudsnails are incredibly prolific,” said Mark Sytsma, an associate professor with Portland State University and director of the Center for Lakes and Reservoirs. In some Montana streams, he said, they are as dense as 750,000 per square meter. In one area at the mouth of the Columbia River, he said, snails carpet the riverbed like tiny rocks. Then “all the gravel starts to move around,” Sytsma said. Mudsnails pose a problem because they eat up the algae that live at the bottom of the stream — algae that usually sustains a native insect and invertebrate population. “They basically displace the native fauna that live on the bottom of the stream, and that’s what the fish eat,” Sytsma said. And the snails have a little kind of trap door they can close to seal themselves off — so if a trout or steelhead tries to eat them, the snails will just pass right through the fish’s digestive system. “It’s kind of like empty calories,” he said. “The fish fill up but they’re not getting nutrition. It really harms the population by disrupting the food web. There’s less food, so the fish don’t grow as well.” It’s unfortunate that mudsnails have settled in the Crooked River, said Gabe Parr with the local Trout Unlimited chapter, who called them “nasty critters.” If the mudsnails take over from the normal sources of food for fish, then the fish could slowly start to move out of the area, he said. “They can start to fall off a bit because the food sources aren’t there,” Parr said.

Chinese mystery snails The same concern exists for the Chinese mystery snails that were found in Crane Prairie Reservoir, Boatner said. The mystery snails — which are significantly bigger than the mudsnails at 2 to 3 inches long — are a common aquarium snail that will eat algae off the glass walls, and will also eat the algae in ponds and other waterways. “This summer they just showed up in weird spots,” Boatner said, noting they are

usually found near populated areas, where people might dump out aquariums. “The Crane Prairie (identification), I wouldn’t expect.” Mystery snails, in addition to messing up the food web by eating algae, sometimes carry a parasite that can burrow into people’s skin and cause a rash called “swimmer’s itch,” which can last a few days. The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife is going to try to see if it can get rid of mystery snails that cropped up in ponds in Central Point, by treating the ponds with a very dilute solution of copper sulfate. Still, Boatner said he didn’t know if that treatment could work for a waterbody as large as Crane Prairie.

Rusty crayfish Biologists are also keeping a close eye on some non-native species of crayfish in the state. This summer, rusty crayfish were confirmed in the John Day River, said Robyn Draheim, a research assistant with Portland State. “They are a very aggressive species,” she said. “They can outcompete the native crayfish by driving them out of their burrows and leaving our (native) signal crawfish to be more vulnerable.” The invaders could have come from a number of sources, Draheim said — anglers could have used them as live bait, not knowing it was illegal to do so in Oregon, or they could have been released pets. Or, she noted, there’s an increasing problem with a popular third- and fourth-grade science curriculum about ecosystems, that has teachers order live crayfish. “When they’re done, oftentimes they’ll release them to the wild,” Draheim said.

Keeping an eye out for other invaders As biologists find more examples of invasive aquatic species across Oregon, they’re keeping an eye out for two kinds that they really don’t want to cross the state’s borders — zebra and quagga mussels. Portland State has done economic analysis studies, Sytsma said, and if the mussels are introduced to state waters and start attaching themselves to fish screens, fish ladders, pipes and hydropower facilities in the Columbia River system, it could cost $23 million a year to keep the population in check. “They clog everything up,” he said. Several lakes in Utah are contaminated, Boatner said, and Oregon enacted a law this year that set up voluntary inspection stations for people to have their boats checked for invasive hitchhikers. But only 30 percent of the boat owners stopped, which he said is a concern. “We’d like to see a lot higher compliance rate,” Boatner said. “A lot of people drove by. Ones who generally stop, have clean boats anyway. That’s the weak link in this whole program.” Kate Ramsayer can be reached at 541-617-7811 or kramsayer@bendbulletin.com.

Police station opens in Marjah New York Times News Service KABUL, Afghanistan — The first police station has been opened in Marjah, seven months after U.S. Marines started operations to take control of that Taliban stronghold in southern Helmand province, military officials said Wednesday. “We have all seen the past of Marjah,” Marine Corps Maj. Gen. Richard Mills, the NATO military commander in southwestern Afghanistan, was

quoted as saying in a statement. “Now we can see the future of Marjah, and I think that future is a happy one.” The police station consists of tents and fortifications, and it includes living and working quarters, as well as holding cells, said the statement, released by the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force. Construction is under way on a larger center, the statement added.

Transit Continued from A1 “It’s going to take awhile for that to occur,” King said. “We have to give it time to focus on this merger and make sure it’s effective and there’s no issue from an operational perspective. That’s what we’re focused on in the short term.” The city, which is facing a sixyear, $17 million shortfall in its general fund, really wants BAT out of its budget. In fiscal year 2009-10, $1.1 million of its general fund dollars, which are used to pay for services like public safety, went to the transit service. But attempts to get voters to shoulder the burden of BAT’s costs have failed at least two times before, in 2004 and 2008, and those defeats seem to be making officials take a measured approach for forming a regional transit district.

Funding sources Of the 11 transit districts in the state, all but one relies on payroll or property taxes. The one that doesn’t, Grant County Transportation District, only has four buses and doesn’t use a local tax to help pay its costs. Most districts in the state use some form of a property tax, with the highest rate coming from Salem Area Mass Transit at $0.76 per $1,000 of assessed value, which adds up to $152 for a $200,000 home. The lowest rate is in Hood River, where property owners are charged $0.07 per $1,000 of assessed value, or $14 for a $200,000 home. Only three transit districts get payroll taxes from individuals inside their districts. Those include the Lane Transit District in Eugene, South Clackamas Transportation District in Molalla and the Tri-County Metropolitan Transportation District (TriMet) in Portland. TriMet has the highest tax rate at $6.82 per $1,000 of gross income and South Clackamas has the lowest at $5 per $1,000. While it’s still too early to know whether local officials will pursue payroll or property taxes

Funding transit Transportation districts around the state are funded by an array of taxes. The two most popular are a payroll tax and a property tax. Grant County Transportation District does not have either a property tax or payroll tax.

— or something completely different — transit district managers from around the state said there are several considerations that need to be made. Steve Dickey, the director of transportation development for Salem’s district, said the amount of payroll and property taxes transportation agencies received has suffered from the downturn in the economy. When times are good, he said property tax revenues don’t increase as quickly as payroll taxes. But the other consideration that needs to be made, he said, is for the taxpayers.

What about taxpayers? A payroll tax can result in backlash from the business community, and property tax increases can always be difficult for residents to swallow. “What I think makes more sense is maybe a split between the two but at a lower rate,” Dickey said. “Everybody shares a little bit and nobody carries the full load. ... Don’t box them in because that really hurts.” The down economy might be the biggest hurdle for the region to overcome before asking voters to approve more taxes to pay for

a transit service. Shirley Lyons, the manager of South Clackamas Transportation District, said that was one of the things she had to overcome in Molalla, which had been hit by the decline in the timber industry. She said the first attempt to get voters to approve a payroll tax failed by a slim margin. And the second time around required some campaigning to get residents to approve a new tax. In Central Oregon, where the economy was hit hard by the recent recession, especially in housing, she said, local officials will probably face some of the same challenges as the South Clackamas Transportation District. “I wish them well,” she said. “But I’m glad to be paddling my own canoe here.” Nick Grube can be reached at 541-633-2160 or at ngrube@bendbulletin.com.

“These people skirted their obligations under the law and I want the Inspector General to investigate.”

Continued from A1 An absence of publicity on the subject in recent years led him to believe the problem was waning, DeFazio said. “When I read the story in The Bend Bulletin, I was just stunned to read that at this point in our economy that in my counties and (Rep. Greg Walden’s) counties people are importing workers and somehow subverting the law,” DeFazio said. “These people skirted their obligations under the law and I want the Inspector General to investigate.” Inspectors General are independent auditors within federal departments. The Labor Department Inspector General’s office received DeFazio’s letter on Wednesday, but hadn’t drafted a response, a spokesman said.

certain federal contracts. Under the H-2B program, employers “self-certify” — essentially promise, without government verification — that they advertised the jobs and tried to hire local workers. Of the 5,871 employers that were certified to hire H-2B workers in 2009, the Office of Foreign Labor Certification audited 25 applications, according to the Department of Labor, or about 0.4 percent. As of the start of September, the office had begun 76 audits in 2010.

The visa program

Weighing in

American companies are allowed to recruit seasonal foreign workers for certain industries, such as seafood sorting and forest work, under the H-2B visa program. According to the Labor Department’s website, a company can recruit workers if it proves there aren’t unemployed U.S. citizens available to do the jobs and that bringing in workers won’t depress wages or worsen working conditions for U.S. workers. The program is separate from temporary visas used for farmworkers. The federal stimulus bill requires contractors to pay higher wages — ranging from about $12 to $22 per hour for most forest work, what’s known as a “prevailing wage” under the Service Contract and Davis-Bacon acts. Those laws set higher minimum wages for workers on

Several local contractors, as well as immigrant rights groups like the Alliance of Forest Workers and Harvesters and the Southern Poverty Law Center, argue that lax federal oversight has let companies take advantage of temporary foreign workers. Those groups say companies routinely pay workers less than they’re owed and force immigrants to work without breaks, proper safety equipment and other basic protections. Bend’s Chuck Burley has called for more regulation of H2B visas as a consultant for the National Environmental Fuels Association, which represents some forest contractors.

LOS ANGELES — For many women, morning sickness can be one of the most miserable parts of pregnancy. Unfortunately, new research reported Wednesday suggests that there is little women can do other than grin and bear it, since there appear to be no effective treatments. The pharmaceutical industry once weighed in on the issue heavily, with the result being the introduction of the now-notorious thalidomide, which caused severe birth defects in a large number of infants. That episode led to increased requirements for safety screening of drugs before they are marketed and led to the still-prevalent consensus that it is generally not safe for women to take drugs during pregnancy, especially in the first trimester, when morning sickness is at its worst. That has led many women to try alternative treatments, including sugar solutions, ginger, vitamin B6, acupressure and acupuncture. Unfortunately, there is little evidence that any of them are effective, Dr. Anne Matthews of the School of Nursing at Ireland’s Dublin City University reported Wednesday in the Cochrane Library, a prestigious source of research on the effectiveness of medical treatments. As many as 85 percent of pregnant women experience nausea, and half of those endure actual vomiting. The cause is unknown, but researchers suspect hormonal imbalances. About 1 in 200 suffers so severely that she cannot keep any food or liquids down, a condition known as hyperemesis gravidarum. It requires medical treatment and can cause blood clots and damage to the infant. On the plus side, a 2007 study found that women who suffer morning sickness are less likely to develop breast cancer.

recruit foreign workers, given the high unemployment rates in Oregon and other rural areas. “It really hits the nail on the head, which is how can they certify this given this economy?” Burley said. The fact that stimulus funds, which were intended to encourage companies to hire U.S. workers, are going to companies that win bids with foreign employees is “obscene,” DeFazio said. Sen Ron Wyden, D-Ore., sent letters to the Labor Department and the U.S. Forest Service at the end of July asking for an explanation of the practice. His office had not received a reply on Wednesday, Wyden spokeswoman Jennifer Hoelzer said.

Moving toward reform The Labor Department only began to enforce basic labor protections for H-2B workers late last year, after decades of going without. U.S. Labor Secretary Hilda Solis acknowledged a failure of federal oversight in a statement earlier this year and promised to draft new regulations to address some of the problems. Those rules are due out in the fall and are expected to address some concerns about lack of worker protections and companies failing to prove they need foreign labor. Ultimately, DeFazio said, he hopes an Inspector General investigation provides even more fuel to reform the guest worker program. “I’m not messing around,” DeFazio said. “I want a proper investigation and given the results, I’m hoping it will bolster my case to create proper laws to prevent this from happening.” Keith Chu can be reached at 202-662-7456 or at kchu@bendbulletin.com.

Authorities seek to shift focus of stoning case to murder New York Times News Service TEHRAN, Iran — An Iranian official confirmed that the government halted the sentence of death by stoning of a woman convicted of adultery, but reiterated that she was still facing accusations of murder. The official, Ramin Mehmanparast, a spokesman for Iran’s Foreign Ministry, was the highest-ranking Iranian official to formally acknowledge that Iran had suspended the woman’s stoning, a sentence that provoked an international outcry and intensified criticism of Iran’s human rights record. Mehmanparast made the comments at a weekly news conference here on Tuesday, saying that officials were reviewing the adultery charges against the woman, Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani. But he said officials were still moving ahead with sentencing her for what they said was her role in the killing of her husband, which could result in a death sentence or a prison term.

Europeans turn up heat on Iran European Union nations slammed Iran on Wednesday for its plans to stone Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani, increasing the global pressure over the case. The EU Parliament passed a resolution condemning Tehran, a move that comes on the heels of EU Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso calling stoning “barbaric,” and Sweden summoned Iran’s ambassador to protest the sentence. — The Associated Press

Blair book selling well despite fierce protests Some content has been questioned, and some events cancelled, but the former British premier’s memoir is flying off the shelves

In Great Britain, former Prime Minister Tony Blair’s memoir sold 92,000 copies in hardcover in less than a week. In the U.S., it’s scheduled to debut on The New York Times hardcover best-seller list at No. 3, and it’s selling at No. 13 for all books on Amazon.

By Sarah Lyall New York Times News Service

LONDON — “You are my 10th prime minister,” Queen Elizabeth observes to Tony Blair when she meets him at Buckingham Palace on his first day in office in 1997, according to “A Journey: My Political Life,” Blair’s new memoir. “The first was Winston. That was before you were born.” It is a memorable scene, one that has reportedly displeased the Queen, since it is considered uncouth for prime ministers to reveal details about private encounters with the royal family. But even more embarrassingly, it turns out that the Queen may not have said what Blair claims she said. Or maybe she did, but only in the movies. In “The Queen,” the 2006 film about the aftermath of the death of Diana, the Princess of Wales, Helen Mirren, playing Elizabeth, greets Michael Sheen, playing Blair, saying in part: “You are my 10th prime minister, Mr. Blair. My first was Winston Churchill.” Peter Morgan, “The Queen’s” screenwriter, said that the scene was entirely fictional. Blair has always maintained that he has never seen the movie, and a spokesman for Knopf, his publisher, repeated that assertion on Wednesday.

’Absolutely remarkable’ It was the latest curveball in the carefully choreographed publicity campaign for Blair’s book, which is not suffering for it at all. Tony Blair has always been a man of contradiction, and the latest is this: Even as angry, protesting crowds are forcing him to cancel long-planned publicity events in London, his book is selling as if he were the most popular person alive. In Britain, according

W B U.S.: Killings won’t thwart Iraq mission BAGHDAD — The killing of two U.S. soldiers by an Iraqi soldier at a military base north of Baghdad was a “deliberate act” but would not undermine the new U.S. mission to advise Iraq’s security forces, the U.S. military said in a statement on Wednesday. The deaths — the first American casualties here since President Barack Obama declared the official end to U.S. combat in Iraq last week — appeared to have stemmed from an argument that escalated into gunfire, according to Iraqi officials and a relative of the Iraqi soldier involved. The attack underscored the risks still facing the nearly 50,000 American troops remaining in Iraq as they work beside Iraqi security forces, who themselves face daily attacks from insurgents.

day with patriotic songs and commentaries admiring leader Kim Jong Il, amid uncertainty over whether the secretive country has begun a rare political meeting believed aimed at promoting one of Kim’s sons as his successor. State media reported Monday that delegates to the Workers’ Party were gathering Kim Jong Il in Pyongyang to elect new party leaders. By Thursday morning, however, there had been no word on whether the meeting has begun. Analysts believe Kim will use the conference to give his third and youngest son — Kim Jong Un — a key party position in efforts to hand over power to him and extend the Kim dynasty into a third generation.

Hitmen gun down Filipino clan ordered Mexican town’s mayor killings, witness says MEXICO CITY — Hooded to Neilsen BookScan, “A Journey” has sold 92,000 copies in hardcover in less than a week — the company’s best opening week for an autobiography since it began keeping figures in 1998. In the United States, where his publisher has printed an additional 25,000 copies since its first printing of 50,000 copies, the book is to debut on The New York Times hardcover best-seller list at No. 3 on Sept. 19. On Amazon, it is already selling at No. 13 for all books. “It’s been absolutely remarkable,” said Fiona Allen, a spokeswoman for Waterstone’s book chain in Britain.

’A fascinating study’ You wouldn’t know it to see the vehemence of the anti-Blair protests here. Though “A Journey” has gotten mixed reviews, the critics have taken it seriously, with many praising Blair for being unusually candid about the vicissitudes of life in high office. So the former prime minister was probably surprised when,

arriving at a bookstore in Dublin over the weekend, he was greeted by a throng of angry protesters loudly chanting “Butcher Blair,” trying to penetrate the security perimeter around the store and throwing eggs, plastic bottles and other objects at him. The incident proved unnerving enough that Blair canceled his big book signing event in London, which was to have been held at lunchtime on Wednesday at Waterstone’s flagship store. He also canceled a private book party that was to have been held at the Tate Modern gallery on Wednesday night. Neill Denny, editor in chief of The Bookseller, a trade publication, said: “We are in the ‘all publicity is good publicity’ sphere here — all the publicity builds excitement for the book.” He went on: “It’s a false premise to say that because people hate him, they won’t want to buy his book.

MANILA, Philippines — The clan accused of orchestrating the Philippines’ worst political massacre plotted the attack over a family dinner, a longtime housekeeper testified Wednesday at the start of a long-delayed trial here. The patriarch of the clan that has long controlled the province of Maguindanao, Andal Ampatuan Sr., gathered his sons, brothers and other guests at the dinner table six days before the killings of 57 political rivals and journalists in November, said the witness, Lakmudin Salio. Ampatuan asked how they could pre-empt a political rival from challenging them for the post of governor, according to Salio. He testified that Ampatuan’s son Andal Jr. replied by saying: “That’s easy. If they come here, just kill them all.”

Clinton declares U.S. will continue to play leading role in world By Glenn Kessler The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — Secretary of State Hillary Clinton declared Wednesday that “a new American moment” had arrived in international relations, “a moment when our global leadership is essential, even if we must often lead in new ways.” Addressing the Council on Foreign Relations, she said that “this is a moment that must be seized — through hard work and bold decisions — to lay the foundations for lasting American leadership for decades to come.” In a speech meant to showcase the successes of the Obama administration’s foreign policy, Clinton emphatically reasserted the primacy of U.S. power in a dangerous world. “After years of war and uncertainty,” she said, “people are wondering what the future holds, at home and abroad. So let me say it clearly: The United States can, must, and will lead in this new century.” In an era of engagement and multilateralism, Clinton’s speech was almost a throwback — an unalloyed statement of American might. It also seemed intended to send a bracing message during a tough election season in the United States, with President Barack Obama battling economic problems at home. Critics have said that the administration’s diplomacy has yielded little on such difficult is-

“After years of war and uncertainty, people are wondering what the future holds, at home and abroad. So let me say it clearly: The United States can, must, and will lead in this new century.” — Secretary of State Hillary Clinton sues as Israeli-Palestinian peace and Iran’s pursuit of nuclear weapons. But Clinton argued the opposite, saying substantial progress had been made on those fronts through “classic shoe-leather diplomacy.” She urged patience, saying the fruits of the administration’s labors will not be apparent for some time. The speech in many ways marks Clinton’s emergence as a foreign-policy leader. She travels to the Middle East next week to foster direct talks between Israelis and Palestinians, and in Wednesday’s speech she spoke confidently and in broad strokes about the administration’s agenda and the U.S. role in the world.

State gets funding for foreclosure plan

Large deficits and a weakened financial system have made the United States less competitive in the global economy, the World Economic Forum said in its annual review of the competitiveness of countries. The United States slipped from second to fourth in the survey, behind Switzerland, Sweden and Singapore. It had fallen from first place the year before. The study includes statistical measures as well as a survey of business owners to compare countries. In the United States, the entrepreneurs cited access to credit and government regulation among their chief concerns. But it was government debt and the country’s overall economic outlook that pushed the United States down in the rankings, said Irene Mia, senior economist at the forum, a Geneva-based think tank that sponsors the annual gathering of world leaders in Davos, Switzerland.

Workers’ compensation rate to remain flat next year By Ed Merriman

A program that has already provided money to Bend, Redmond and about 45 other Oregon communities to buy and redevelop foreclosed homes will receive an additional $5 million, federal officials announced Wednesday. The money represents Oregon’s share of $1 billion distributed nationwide in the third round of Neighborhood Stabilization Program funding. The grants announced Wednesday bring Oregon’s total to $31.4 million for all three rounds, according to a news release from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. With $19.6 million from round one, the Oregon Housing and Community Services Department and designated agencies across the state have started buying 351 foreclosed, vacant or blighted properties and preparing them for resale, the news release stated.

Low-income housing complex getting stimulus-funded makeover By Tim Doran • The Bulletin The decline and rebirth of the Crest Butte Apartments

The overall rate Oregon employers pay in workers’ compensation insurance premiums and assessments will remain unchanged next year at the current average of $1.48 per $100 in payroll, according to an announcement Wednesday from the state Department of Consumer and Business Services. Lisa Morawski, DCBS communications director, said the pure premium rate employers pay their insurance companies for workers’ compensation coverage is dropping 1.8 percent in 2011 due to a continued reduction in worker injuries and claims costs. However, the assessment premium levied by DCBS to cover the agency’s operating costs and provide workplace safety programs, OR-OSHA inspections, mediation and other services is scheduled to rise 1.8 percent, from its current 4.6 percent to 6.4 percent. “The net effect, overall, is employers will pay the same amount for workers’ compensation,” Morawski said. She said it’s important to remember that while the average costs will remain flat for most Oregon employers, specific costs for workers’ compensation insurance premiums vary from business to business, depending on the employer’s industry, claims experience, work force and other factors.

WASHINGTON — Beyond the 15 million Americans who have no jobs at all, millions more are caught in part-time or limited jobs that don’t pay them enough to maintain their standard of living — much less contribute to the strong consumer spending needed to power the nation out of the economic doldrums. Economists have a technical term for these people: underemployed. But there’s nothing technical about it for David Linehan of Quincy, Mass., who lost his job as an analyst for an energy-trading firm during the recession, along with his $30,000 salary and benefits. The 43-year-old now tries to get by on less than one-third that amount as a driver for a rental car company. His new employer limits his work to less than 30 hours a week because any more would make him eligible for company-provided health insurance. “I’m so sick of news about the recovery,” said Linehan, who has some college and technical-school training. The latest Labor Department report shows there are nearly 9 million people like Linehan who want full-time jobs but can’t find them. See Employment / B5

Tough times drive some to pursue long-lost dreams By Steve Hendrix The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — At an audition last week at the Kennedy Center, Philip Ruxton felt as if he must have been the only nervous person in a waiting room full of seasoned pros. He paced the floor, focused on his breathing and, finally, with two minutes left before his turn, went over his music one last time before handing it to the pianist who would accompany him. That’s when he discovered the entire last page of his song was missing.

“Uh-oh,” he thought. “This is not good.” Unlike the others waiting to try out for the chorus of the Kennedy Center’s coming production of “Follies,” Ruxton is brand new to all this. A year ago, the 45year-old commercial real estate broker’s last theatrical experience had been in high school drama class. But like many struggling with the recession this Labor Day, Ruxton has found the time and incentive to explore his dream, a passion he’d stored in the back of his mind for decades.

SAN FRANCISCO — Google, which can already feel like an appendage to our brains, is now predicting what people are thinking before they even type. On Wednesday, Google introduced Google Instant, which predicts Internet search queries and shows results as soon as someone begins to type, adjusting the results as each successive letter is typed. “We want to make Google the third half of your brain,” said Sergey Brin, Google’s cofounder and president of technology, speaking at a Google press event at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Marissa Mayer, Google’s vice president for search products and user experience, added, “There’s even a psychic element to it.” Google’s new psychic powers result in much faster searches, but the change might affect the many businesses that have been built around placing search ads on Google and helping websites figure out how to climb higher in search results to increase revenue. It is a sign that even as Google expands into other businesses, like display advertising and cell phones, it remains firmly focused on search, its core business and one that accounts for more than 90 percent of its revenue.

After fine, Botox awaits FDA approval for migraines By Natasha Singer

By Brian Stelter

New York Times News Service

New York Times News Service

In public relations, it’s known as “seeding the market” — stirring up excitement for a forthcoming product or application. It happens with smart phones, social networks and even designer handbags. But it is not supposed to happen with prescription drugs marketed to doctors, according to federal law. That is the charge leveled against Allergan, the maker of Botox, in a phalanx of falseclaims lawsuits and federal inquiries that resulted last week in the company’s agreeing to pay $600 million to resolve criminal and civil complaints of illegal marketing tactics. Allergan also agreed to plead guilty to one misdemeanor charge of misbranding Botox from 2000 through 2005, but the company denied the other allegations. Allergan’s settlement with the Justice Department resolves the latest crackdown by the federal government against major drug makers. Last year, Pfizer and Eli Lilly paid hefty sums to resolve federal charges of illegal marketing. The lengthy federal investigation of Allergan tracked the rise of Botox in an ever-expanding market. Over the last decade, Botox has gained fame — and talk show notoriety — as a wrinkle killer. Along the way, the drug has become a blockbuster brand, with worldwide sales last year of about $1.3 billion, in no small part because it can also be used to treat a variety of muscle and gland disorders. The Food and Drug Administration has over time approved the injections to mitigate uncontrolled blinking, certain neck muscle spasms, excessive underarm sweating, and wrinkles between the eyebrows. This year, the agency again expanded the use of Botox, permitting injections for increased muscle stiffness in the elbows and hands, and it is now considering whether to approve Botox as a preventive treatment for severe migraines.

way for Morgan to hold both jobs — and he will also retain a role on ITV, the British network, where he hosts an interview series called “Piers Morgan’s Life Stories.” His guests there have included Gordon Brown, Simon Cowell, Sharon Osbourne, Richard Branson and Geri Halliwell. Morgan is a controversial figure — but he knows that controversy can be a good thing, especially for a CNN time slot that needs more attention. He was a tabloid newspaper editor in Britain for more than a decade. Later, he turned to television full-time and found fame in the United States, winning the first season of “The Celebrity Apprentice” and joining “America’s Got Talent.” Once Morgan is installed at 9 p.m., CNN will have reformatted almost its entire prime-time lineup, with the exception of the 10 p.m. hour, which has been held by Anderson Cooper since 2005. This year, CNN started “John King, USA,” a political news program, at 7 p.m., replacing “Lou Dobbs Tonight.” On Oct. 4, it will introduce “Parker Spitzer,” a debate program, at 8 p.m., taking over the “Campbell Brown” slot and its interim replacement, “Rick’s List.” With the new lineup, “I think we have an unparalleled lineup of hosts who hold public figures accountable for their words and their deeds,” Klein said, stressing “accountability and tough questioning.” Along with the primetime CNN show, Morgan will write a regular column for CNN.com. The network said the new column would not conflict with his two other columns for a British newspaper, The Mail on Sunday.

Denial of charges Except for the one misbranding charge, Allergan has denied the criminal and civil accusations, including those of kickbacks and fraud, said Caroline Van Hove, a company spokeswoman, adding that the allegations were not proved.

“I want to be clear that Allergan is not charged with misleading doctors or causing any patient harm,” Van Hove wrote in an e-mail to a reporter Monday, “and we adamantly deny any implication that this occurred.” Allergan, she added, has spent hundreds of millions of dollars in medical research and development of new uses for Botox. The drug is approved in 81 countries to treat 21 different conditions, she said. Several drug makers finance the Neurotoxin Institute, an independent scientific group, she added. The settlement agreement comes at a delicate moment for the potentially vast new use of Botox to prevent chronic migraines, a debilitating condition. The agency is expected to decide by the end of October on Allergan’s application for that use, which was submitted just last year. Even so, according to evidence in a separate product liability lawsuit, Botox headache shots already had sales in the United States of nearly $56 million in 2007, signaling growing use for that treatment.

The European bank panic that rattled markets around the world last spring may have subsided, but the experience has left investors and analysts jumpy about the prospects of more Greek-style bank bailouts. On Wednesday, the Irish government, bowing to market fears that its escalating banking losses might cause it to seek such a bailout, said it would split the troubled Anglo Irish Bank into two entities, one of which would eventually shut. The move represents a backtracking of sorts for Ireland. The government has said that it would be more expensive to close Anglo Irish, which is weighted with bad loans incurred during Ireland’s debtfueled real estate boom, than to continue it as a smaller institution. But a recent deposit run and a sharp rise in government bond yields to 6 percent — a level that at least one analyst

called “unbearable” — have forced the government to act. Last week, Anglo Irish said the cost to the government of supporting the bank would be 25 billion euros, or $32 billion. But that figure has been rejected by analysts and the Standard & Poor’s rating agency, which, in a recent report, said that it would cost as much as $45 billion. The increasing uncertainty over Anglo Irish’s losses and the extent to which the deeply indebted Irish government can finance them has rapidly become a concern throughout Europe. Greece’s financing costs are now 11.7 percent, and spreads, or the risk premiums associated with its debt, widened again Wednesday on reports that the country’s largest bank, the National Bank of Greece, would raise $3.6 billion — prompting concerns that the banking sector must raise more capital than originally expected. In Portugal, while the government raised about $1.3 bil-

lion at a debt auction Wednesday, it had to offer a yield of 5.9 percent for bonds due in 2021. That was up sharply from 4.1 percent in March. Greece’s disclosure that it would have trouble refinancing its debt set off a crisis in Europe this spring and led to a trilliondollar rescue package from the European Union and the International Monetary Fund. The current bout of nerves has less to do with liquidity — Ireland has enough capital to finance itself through the second quarter of next year — than the willingness and capacity of governments to pay for the sins of bankers. “Governments are on the line globally for their banking systems,” said Aziz Sunderji, a credit strategist at Barclays Capital. “And this is being reflected in the yields. It is not a liquidity issue,

it’s a solvency issue.” In an era of global banking excess, Anglo Irish was one of the most reckless lenders, funneling the bulk of its loans into the country’s real estate market. When the market crashed, so did Anglo Irish, prompting a government takeover. Of the $96 billion in loans on Anglo Irish’s books when the government stepped in, only about $15 billion are receiving payments, according to bank management. The government said Wednesday that Anglo Irish would be split into a recovery bank that would be either sold or closed, and a funding bank that would be owned by the government.

It’s not even comparable.” Built in 1978, Crest Butte Apartments provides government-subsidized rent for low-income residents through the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Rural Development Agency and U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. The Oregon State Housing Council mentioned in June 2008 that Crest Butte had been poorly maintained, according to meeting minutes, and inspections identified it as possible troubled property, mostly due to the deferred maintenance, said Marlys McNeill, administrator of the Asset & Property Management Division of the Oregon Department of Housing and Community Services. In summer 2008, Crest Butte qualified for a $3.1 million package of housing trust funds, lowincome and affordable housing tax credits and low-income weatherization funding to help pay for the approximately $8 million renovation project. Then in late 2008, the economy crashed, and interest in purchasing low-income tax credits dried up, halting renovations and the sale of the complex. Chrisman’s purchase of the complex was contingent upon successfully obtaining funding for the rehab, he said.

Without an independent determination by agency experts on the optimal doses and precautions for a particular drug treatment, he said, doctors can wind up prescribing medications without good evidence.

treatment for overactive bladders, and owns patents on dozens of other potential Botox treatments. The company denies most of the complaints in lawsuits by whistle-blowers and federal prosecutors. But documents released by the Justice Department that accompanied the settlement outlined accusations that Allergan had systematically built Botox sales by promoting it for unapproved treatments to relieve conditions like migraines, pain, muscle spasticity and cerebral palsy in children. Doctors are allowed to prescribe drugs in unapproved ways as they deem medically appropriate, but it is illegal for a drug maker to promote those unapproved, or off-label, uses.

pened, this project never would have proceeded,” Chrisman said. The Crest Butte sale occurred in December, Deschutes County property records show, and renovations began in January. Chrisman Development and Management owns or manages about 700 apartments in about 25 complexes across Central and Eastern Oregon, he said. On projects like Crest Butte, the company earns development fees, it makes money managing the complexes and after 30 or more years, it owns the them. The length of time is negotiated with each contract, Chrisman said. Along with preserving 52 apartments for low-income Bend residents, the project, which Chrisman expects to be finished by year’s end, will have provided jobs for about 70 people when it’s finished, said Randy Stewart, superintendent for W.C. Construction of Elgin. It also provides work for Pinnacle Architecture Inc. of Bend. Chrisman praised the firm’s design touches, such as a cantilevered roof angled skyward, which can be found on other buildings in the area. The renovated buildings in earth-tone colors have covered metal stairways surrounded by concrete wood and wiring. Stairways in the old buildings left tenants much more exposed. For the first time, Crest Butte will also have apartments designed to be accessible for those with disabilities. It’s hard to believe it’s really the same building under there,” Chrisman said. “Pretty much every surface in the facility got touched.”

Piers Morgan will take over for Larry King in January, CNN announced Wednesday, putting an end to the summerlong speculation about one of the most prized time slots in television. In hiring Morgan, the Britishborn journalist and talent show judge, CNN, a unit of Time Warner, is declaring that the newsmaker interview format is still relevant, even though the partisan hosts on Fox News and MSNBC have ratings far higher than King’s. CNN is also making a generational shift at 9 p.m., from the 76-year-old King to the 45-yearold Morgan. In a telephone interview, Jonathan Klein, president of CNN-U.S., said that “there is an enormous hunger out there in the audience to get to know the people behind the news.” “Piers shares that hunger,” he added. But so much will depend on the bookings of newsmaker guests. Morgan said he would seek a “happy medium” between hard and soft news interviews, naming President Barack Obama, Sarah Palin, Mel Gibson and Lindsay Lohan in the same sentence of people he would like to sit down with. King, who met Morgan for the first time Wednesday morning, had a similar style in booking guests. Amid a ratings depression, King announced in June that he was ending the 25-year-old program, though he will continue to host occasional specials for the channel. CNN said that the last day of “Larry King Live” will be Dec. 16. In an interview, Morgan called King’s job — the one he is taking — “the greatest interview job in the world,” one he had long dreamed of filling. In describing his interviewing style, Morgan said a British newspaper had once depicted him as a smiling James Bond-style assassin. “I think that’s slightly overstating it, but I like finding things out about people. I like rattling cages,” he said. The inherent message is that Morgan will try to make the 9 p.m. time slot more relevant, with provocative, news-making interviews, compelling people to watch. The hiring of Morgan had been expected for the last two months. Most American viewers know him only as a judge on NBC’s “America’s Got Talent.” He will remain on that show — a deal between the parent companies of NBC and CNN cleared the

P F Garnishing wages with little oversight In some states, court approval isn’t needed before money is seized By Chris Serres and Glenn Howatt Star Tribune (Minneapolis)

MINNEAPOLIS — After two weeks without a decent meal, Van Tran looked tired and agitated as he walked into the Ramsey County, Minn., courtroom for a hearing in May. Tran, 55, a janitor and security guard from St. Paul, Minn., had waited for this chance to explain why a collections firm made a serious mistake when it seized $8,016 from his bank accounts — three years’ worth of savings — to collect an alleged Discover credit card debt. Tran held a police report showing he was a victim of identity theft. “I just want my money back until this is resolved,” Tran, a Vietnamese immigrant, recalls pleading to Judge Thomas Mott. “I need money to eat.” But speedy justice was denied Tran, as it is for many debtors whose savings or paychecks are seized in a legal process called garnishment. At nearly every stage of the process, the deck is stacked against consumers. In Minnesota, unlike most states, collectors can start a lawsuit without filing anything in court. If a consumer doesn’t respond, they can seize bank accounts or part of a paycheck. Most states require judicial oversight. But in Minnesota, collectors can take people’s money without proving in court the debt is owed. The bad economy and the rapid growth of a new industry that collects old debts once deemed uncollectible have sharply increased garnishments. When mistakes occur, consumers often must go to court and prove it. Their money already taken, they typically cannot afford an attorney and must navigate the court system alone. Cases get bogged down while checks bounce and bills go unpaid. Some people, like Tran, are left so destitute that they go hungry. The process is hardest on the elderly and disabled. They often must repeatedly file paperwork to retrieve government benefits such as Social Security that are legally protected from garnishment.

‘It’s about fairness’ Debt collectors say garnishments are a last resort. Often, by the time a bank account is seized, the debtor has been served with a lawsuit, and received a garnishment notice and many telephone calls, letters and offers of payment plans. Debtors can prevent garnishments simply by answering the phone and negotiating payment, collectors say. Consumer advocates and some legislators counter that collectors should not be able to freeze bank

Bradley Scott, of St. Paul, Minn., smokes a cigarette before going to a meeting with a credit counselor in May. Scott, 57, a retired military veteran who suffers from agoraphobia, had his bank account emptied by a debt collector, even though all his income is exempt from garnishment. accounts without court scrutiny. “It’s about fairness,” said Minnesota state Sen. Ron Latz, who is preparing legislation to toughen state regulation of collectors. “Given the multiple errors that can occur, people should have the chance to defend themselves in court before their money is taken.” Federal law says creditors can’t take Social Security, veterans’ retirement payments and other government benefits. But collectors routinely seize the money because they have no simple way to determine when a person’s bank account has exempt income. Collectors and banks often claim ignorance of a person’s protected financial status. Banks risk a lawsuit or contempt of court if they don’t act on garnishment notices quickly. Banks typically don’t check whether cash in an account is protected. Minnesota doesn’t limit how many times a collector can try to garnish an account. By contrast, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Texas prohibit wage garnishments except in special cases, such as for child support or back taxes. North Carolina law allows debtors to claim exemptions for basic living expenses, such as food and rent for 60 days. Texas debtors may exempt up to $30,000 in personal property.

Lack of information Mike Persellin, a Legal Aid attorney in Minneapolis, said he recently represented a mentally disabled 77-year old woman whose bank account was frozen twice by the same creditor law firm. Both times, he sent a copy of her bank account records showing that her only source of income was exempt Social Security and pension checks. Six months later, the law firm called and asked the disabled woman for her bank ac-

count information. Legal Aid attorneys say Messerli & Kramer, the largest collections law firm in the state, routinely sends letters to people who have claimed exemptions, to find out whether their financial status has changed. Many are senior citizens living in nursing homes or disabled people with little hope of earning nonexempt income, Legal Aid attorneys said. People who do not respond to the information request may be hit with further garnishments. “It’s almost like they’re trying to wear people down to the point where they just give up,” said Kathleen Eveslage, a staff attorney who represents senior citizens with Southern Minnesota Regional Legal Services in St. Paul. William Hicks, chairman of the collections practice at Messerli & Kramer, defended the practice of sending information requests. He said many debtors who receive exempt income may stop getting that income six to 12 months after they claim an exemption, making it difficult to determine when a person’s funds should be seized to pay debts. “We certainly try to avoid garnishing a debtor when we know they are receiving exempt funds,” Hicks said. “However, we are often working without perfect information.”

School has started and vacations are over, so it’s time to start thinking about income taxes. But because Congress has not made tax laws for 2011 clear, planning is especially difficult this year. The end of the year is the time to decide whether to make financial decisions before yearend or wait until the following year if a better tax break is available. As it stands now, the Bush tax cuts are expiring this year, and we can look forward to higher tax brackets next year. The 10 percent bracket goes away and is combined with the 15 percent bracket, and the highest bracket of 35 percent goes to 39.6 percent. Also disappearing are low dividend rates, and capital gain taxes move from 15 percent to 20 percent. While this may provide a case for accelerating income into 2010 to pay at lower tax rates, it’s still

too early to decide. If Congress does make some last-minute changes to tax laws, some could see their taxes go down next year. This uncertainty makes this year perhaps the most important to be working closely with a CPA and financial planner to analyze what decisions would be most tax-efficient by the end of the year. Tax laws we will certainly see in 2011 are those related to the new health care reform law passed this year. These laws will expand each year for the next five years, if the law isn’t changed. Starting next year, withdrawals from flexible spending accounts and health savings accounts will no longer be allowed on over-the-counter medicines without a doctor’s prescription. So participants in these plans may want to stock up in December on aspirin and other drugs to be able to use those funds freely.

An easy process The federal government is partly to blame. In the late 1990s, the U.S. Treasury and the Social

in a bank account — also can occur outside the court system. To dispute such a garnishment, the debtor must initiate legal action against a creditor. Many people don’t bother. “There is more court oversight of parking violations than garnishing the last remaining dollars of the poor,” said Heaney, the consumer attorney. “It’s appalling.” Collections attorneys argue that Minnesota’s system benefits consumers. For example, the absence of a judgment means there is no court record of the litigation; nor does it appear on your credit report. By contrast, a court judgment over an old debt can stay on a credit report for seven years, making it harder for a person to get loans or find employment. In addition, when creditors use the court system to collect a debt in Minnesota, the courts typically tack on more than $500 in fees. That doesn’t occur when money is seized outside the court system. “Why clog up the courts with cases that will only make people poorer?” asked William Cottrell, an attorney who has taught a course on creditor/debtor law at William Mitchell College of Law in St. Paul for the past 11 years. Hicks of Messerli & Kramer said keeping garnishments out of the courts benefits people who owe small-balance debts and can pay quickly without judicial intervention. Even so, Hicks said his firm doesn’t pursue such garnishments. He worries that consumer attorneys will challenge them as unconstitutional. “I don’t need to be in one of their lawsuits,” he said.

‘Extremely frustrating’ Bradley Scott, 57, an Army veteran, suffers from a rare mental disability called agoraphobia, the fear of open spaces. He can’t drive or shop alone; small changes in his surroundings can trigger panic. Scott spends most of his days in his 750-square-foot house in St. Paul, watching television, listening to blues or folk music, and smoking nonfilter cigarettes. His hands shake as he describes how a North Dakota law firm emptied his bank account

Uncertainty on tax laws may complicate financial decisions By Dan Serra

over a $3,500 credit card debt. Scott, whose sole source of income is exempt Social Security and veterans retirement benefits, discovered the garnishment when his mortgage check bounced. Scott had to make several trips to North Star Bank in Roseville, Minn., with financial records showing his income was exempt. Each time, he had to arrange an escort with a Ramsey County social services worker. The bank said it was legally required to process the garnishment and could not return the money without the collector’s permission. “It was extremely frustrating,” he said. Scott got his money back only when attorney Peter Barry of Minneapolis sent a letter and made phone calls on his behalf. In the meantime, Scott paid $160 in bounced-check and overdraft fees. In addition, North Star Bank charged him a $100 fee to process the garnishment. He now questions whether he should keep money in a bank. “If they can take my money once, what’s to say they couldn’t do it again?” he said.

Security Administration encouraged people to receive payments through direct deposit. For the government, the move saved the cost of sending millions of checks. But collectors and banks had no easy way to determine when deposits were protected. In April, the Treasury proposed rules that would require banks that receive garnishment notices to look back 60 days to see if a customer has exempt income. Benefit payments like Social Security will be coded for easy identification. The rules, expected to take effect later this year, don’t bar collectors from attempting repeated garnishment actions and information requests. Financial experts say it’s never been easier to locate debtor bank accounts and seize money. Collectors can find out where a person banks from credit records or data brokers. Creditors sometimes blanket major banks in a metro area with garnishment orders and information requests, betting they will hit their target, bank regulators say. Minnesota is one of just a handful of states that allow collectors to send a garnishment notice to a bank without obtaining a court judgment. As a result, the collector needn’t prove in court that a debt is owed before seizing money. Minnesota is also unusual in allowing debt collectors to start a lawsuit without filing papers in court, known as “hip pocket” filing. If a consumer calls the court, there is no record of a lawsuit, causing some people to ignore it or assume it must be a scam. The next step — freezing funds

For those with health savings accounts, any withdrawal for these drugs or non-medical-related items will be penalized by 20 percent instead of the current 10 percent. For small-business owners, buying equipment this year may be a wise tax decision. The IRS Section 179 deduction that allows businesses to deduct up to $250,000 in purchases in one year is being cut to just $25,000 in 2011. Also being cut are deductions and credits for tuition and teacher expenses. Some taxpayers will also see their tax deduction on student loan interest disappear. We should expect more tax law changes, but until then the only way to know what taxes could be in the future is to visit www.MyTaxBurden.org. It allows you to type in your current income and expenses, then shows the potential taxes under four scenarios that could be possible for 2011 taxes.

experience and benefits to forecast “loss costs” — or the estimated cost of injury and illness claims in Oregon, according to the DCBS release. “Oregon’s workers’ compensation system continues to deliver great results, and we’re seeing that reflected in 20 years of declining injuries and declining costs,” said Cory Streisinger, DCBS director. Workplace injury and illness rates in Oregon have declined 24 percent since 2004 and more than 58 percent since the late 1980s. Other factors that have helped keep premiums low include the increased use of Oregon’s return-to-work programs and DCBS’s work with the medical community to keep medical costs under control by setting standards for expensive medical procedures and encouraging the use of generic drugs, DCBS said.

Continued from B1 The department reported that the pure premium rate has not increased since 1990, and has decreased nearly 13 percent since 2006, saving Oregon employers $18.2 billion over the past 20 years. Premium costs paid by employers today are down $146 million from 2006 levels. “A strong, stable workers’ compensation system is especially important to businesses during difficult economic times,” Gov. Ted Kulongoski said in the DCBS news release. “Year after year, our system in Oregon delivers results, with safer workplaces, reduced litigation, and improved benefits — all at a low and predictable cost.” DCBS sets the pure premium rate based on a recommendation from the National Council on Compensation Insurance, which looks at various trends in claims

keywords that catapult their sites to the top results, analysts said. For example, it has been less expensive for a small hotel in Paris to buy ads that show up when someone searches “Paris boutique hotels in the Marais” than when someone searches “Paris hotels.” But now that Google immediately starts showing results, people may type long queries less often. As a result, advertisers would have to bid for more common terms. Also, because Google Instant focuses attention on the search box and top results, people could spend less time looking at the ads that show up on the right side of the page. “The general murmur is that advertisers are not particularly pleased because they see it as Google strong-arming people to buy the most expensive terms and make the most money for Google,” said Matt Hessler, account director for Trada, a search marketing firm. Johanna Wright, director of product management at Google, said that Google was not changing the way it ranked or served ads, and that the instant results were more useful for consumers because “we’re getting you your answer much quicker and you’re not having to scroll and wade through information.”

Continued from B1 It has faced competition recently from Microsoft’s Bing search engine. Google has made its new product the default way to search the Web. Instant works with the most popular modern browsers in the United States and several other countries. It will show up on cell phones and in browser search bars in a few months. “It’s been awhile since there’s been a game changer in search, and this is,” said Jordan Rohan, an Internet analyst at Stifel Nicolaus. “It changes how people search.” He added that it was a feat of computing and engineering that could not “easily be mimicked by Google’s competition.” Google’s attempt to greatly change the way people search could throw a wrench in the business models of the companies that have latched onto the Google ecosystem. Analysts said that it was too early to tell how Google Instant would affect search engine marketing and optimization businesses. But because Web pages and ads show up before people finish typing queries, it could be more challenging and expensive for them to pick

Dream jobs Continued from B1 Ruxton is far from alone in letting the acting bug sink its teeth in during this lean time at work. Career counselors say idled or anxious workers often reconnect with long-dormant dreams in a down economy. It’s a time when reduced hours at work open up schedules and gloomy moods demand a little psychic pampering. “We see a lot more people indulging their ideals in an economy like this,” said Melissa Fireman, chief executive of Washington Career Services, a company offering career counseling and training. Over the past two years, she says, she’s seen an uptick of 10 percent to 20 percent in clients seeking advice on making job upheaval their path toward fulfillment of long-suppressed interests in the arts, nonprofit work or some other dream. “They’re like: ‘Finally, I’m out of that. I can look at my passion,’” she said. Ruxton decided to seek a taste of stage life when last year’s drop-off in business left him with fewer overtime hours and

job. It was a desperate time, but something in Ross’ mind kept bringing him back to his lifelong love of hamming it up. He had never forgotten the glow of playing an elf in his grade-school Christmas pageant. “Like a lot of people, I had that in me but decided just to lock it away and pursue a regular job,” said Ross, 44. “But here I was so down. I decided if I had to get another job, I was going to do something I was passionate about.” Ross looked up agents in the Yellow Pages and found Linda Townsend, a talent rep based in Clinton, Md. “I was so nervous auditioning for her,” he said. “I thought she was going to do a Simon Cowell on me: ‘What on Earth are you even thinking?’” But the agent saw potential and signed him. A few months later, she booked Ross’ first oncamera part, a “patient” in a Red Cross home-health video. Next came an instructional film for the Center for Vein Restoration and then a role as a parolee in a Justice Department training video. He now has more than 10 gigs on his résumé and has made more than $6,000 as an actor. Of course, not all job seekers turn to acting or otherwise in-

the middle-class lifestyles that their skills, education and experience once helped them secure. Full time or part time, many of the underemployed are young adults with college degrees. Sum estimated that half of the collegeeducated workers 25 and younger who started work this year landed in jobs that didn’t require bachelor’s degrees, such as waiting tables, bartending and retail sales. Only a few years ago, he said, that figure was closer to 25 percent. Research suggests underemployment is particularly menacing and long-lasting for new workers. They typically don’t get the employer-supported training that can advance careers. And starting out at lower-level jobs and pay usually stunts earnings

dulge their job fantasies during the downturn. For many at the Montgomery One-Stop Career Center in Wheaton, Md., one recent afternoon, the imperative was not so much bagging a dream job as avoiding a nightmare. At the computer terminals where clients searched employment listings, racks of pamphlets offered lifelines from the disaster: “Mortgage Late? Don’t Wait!” “Get the Health Care Your Children Need.” “My dream job right now is any job,” said Patricia Garcia, a former nanny hoping to find an office gig, one, she hoped, “with air conditioning.” Pressed for a more specific answer, she said the best possible job she could imagine would be to work as a radio DJ. “Or maybe a singer,” she said. Back at the Kennedy Center, Ruxton recovered from his missing page mishap by giving the accompanist his own copy of the sheet music. He belted out 32 bars, heard a noncommittal “Thank you” from the director’s table and left. “We’ll see,” Ruxton said afterward. “I have no idea where this is going to go, but I’m enjoying every minute of it. I certainly never expected to be here.”

for years to come. But as serious as underemployment can be for the young, experts and government statistics indicate that older workers have been hit even harder. Among those 55 and older, the ranks of involuntary part-timers reached 1.3 million this spring, a 122 percent increase from three years earlier. By comparison, the number of part-timers ages 20 to 24 rose 90 percent over the same period, to 1.5 million. The job market is showing signs of slight improvement, but the private sector still isn’t creating many new full-time jobs. And the high unemployment rate has allowed employers to hold down wages and, in many cases, choose to hire overqualified workers.

an itch to try something new. He signed up for a session of dramatic readings offered by a downtown theater group, which led to an audition for the spring musical and, surprise, a lead role. There may be no more common passion lurking in the hearts of American 9-to-5ers than a lust for stage or screen. Nearly one-third of U.S. residents identified acting as their “dream job” in a recent Marist Poll, choosing the allure of drama over being a professional athlete, president of the United States or a rock star. “Our enrollment is way up,” said Jane Coyn, associate director of the Theatre Lab School of the Dramatic Arts. When the downturn began, the school braced for a falloff in applicants. Instead, the number of entering students climbed from 1,000 in 2008 to 1,400 this year. “We’re seeing a lot of people saying they’ve been thinking about what they value and what they want to do with their lives.” When Sgt. Gregory Ross, a 15-year member of Georgetown University’s campus police force, lost his home to foreclosure, he moved in with his father and began looking for a second

The surge in underemployment that began during the recession cut almost evenly across all major industries and occupations and affected workers in all age groups, the Labor Department data showed, and hit especially hard older people — some of whom have reluctantly opted to file for early Social Security benefits. The number of involuntary part-timers — who on average worked 23 hours a week in the second quarter — had been easing down since spring but rose in August. The figure is double the pre-recession level and the highest since record-keeping began in 1955. The problem is even bigger than the official numbers suggest. Another group of underemployed is not tracked by the government but may be almost as large: workers shunted into full-time jobs that pay far less than their old jobs. These workers’ new paychecks offer only a shadow of

Continued from B1 In some cases, their formerly full-time employers have reduced their hours because of a lack of business. The lack of full-time work is both a hardship for individuals and their families and a substantial drag on the stillfeeble recovery. With consumer spending accounting for 70 percent of the nation’s total economic activity, having millions of underemployed workers means a loss of economic vitality — along with lower tax revenues and more budget problems for governments at every level. “It creates a huge macro effect on your ability to buy things and on the output potential for the country,” said Andrew Sum, an economics professor and director of the Center for Labor Market Studies at Northeastern University in Boston.

Lockheed says 25% of execs take buyout Bloomberg News WASHINGTON — Lockheed Martin Corp., the world’s largest defense company, said Wednesday that about 25 percent of its executives opted for a voluntary retirement program designed to cut costs as defense spending slows. More than 600 vice presidents and directors applied for the program offered in July, Bethesda, Md.-based Lockheed said in a statement Wednesday. Executives taking the retirement plan have begun leaving, and all will have gone by February, Jeffery Adams, a Lockheed spokesman, said in a telephone interview.

Some TLC for the trail less traveled

Y

esterday, a group of locals wrapped up a two-week horseback ride that marked the unofficial reopening of the Metolius-Windigo Trail. The what? The little-known Metolius-Windigo Trail runs right through our backyards, but is overshadowed by its famous older sister, the Pacific Crest Trail. The “Met-Win,” as it’s affectionately known, was created by the U.S. Forest Service around 1980 as an alternate to a heavily traveled portion of the PCT, which stretches from Mexico to Canada. It begins at Windigo Pass, nestled in the Cascades between Chemult and Crescent, roughly 10 miles west of U.S. Highway 97. For 120 miles it winds through mixed forest, over lava flows and around lakes, parallel to the PCT but farther east and at a slightly lower elevation. It ends near the Mt. Jefferson Wilderness Area. For more than a decade, the trail has been blocked by a cobweb of fallen trees. But in the past couple of years, groups including the Back Country Horsemen of Oregon and Oregon Equestrian Trails — networks of volunteers who maintain trails and horse camps throughout the state — have worked on it. Early this summer, word got out that the trail was mostly cleared. Pat and Rhonda Marquis, of Terrebonne, had been talking for years about riding it. In early August, Rhonda ran a meeting of the Oregon Equestrian Trails’ Central Oregon Chapter, of which she is chairwoman. As the meeting came to a close, she told the group that she was finalizing plans to ride the Metolius-Windigo Trail from start to finish. Dan and Joyce Fouts, of Prineville, ran up to her. So did Kenna Hoyser, of Powell Butte. They’d been talking about the same ride for years. Rhonda typed up an itinerary. She emailed it to the interested riders. They wrote back with suggestions. By the ninth revision, they were ready to go. They broke the trip into a series of day rides. With help from friends, they shuttled their gear to a new site each morning, then drove back to their horses and rode from the previous night’s camp to the next one. The shuttles made mornings hectic, the riders said when I met up with them halfway through their trip. “But then you saddle up and take a deep breath and it’s just wonderful being on the trail all day,” Rhonda added. They traveled 14 to 25 miles each day, with a couple of rest days mixed in. Like any pilgrimage, this one had its hardships. On the fifth day, the riders saddled their horses in the rain. As they started down the trail, the raindrops changed to sleet. Then snow. Soon it was sticking to the ground. “Thank goodness the trees were blazed because we could barely see the trail,” Rhonda says. Fat snowflakes landed on them as they trudged between narrow lodgepole pine trees. Rhonda remarked out loud that “in the summer, this would be really hot and dusty.” The group burst out laughing. It was Aug. 30. Halfway through their trip, they still hadn’t seen one other person on the trail. They did see bear and cougar tracks, however. Dan carried his GPS on the trip and took notes on trail conditions, which he will report to the U.S. Forest Service. “Right in Lava Lake Campground, for example … there are half a dozen or so logs down on the trail,” he says. There were pleasant surprises, too. Where the Davis Fire consumed 21,000 acres in 2003, for example, someone had rolled logs onto each side of the trail, to keep the riders on track. With few standing trees to mark the path otherwise, they could have strayed way off course. Rhonda plans to publish her journal of the trip in the next newsletter of Oregon Equestrian Trails. For trail information, call 541-383-5300 or visit www.fs.fed.us/r6/centraloregon. Last night, the riders reached the end of the trail and celebrated their successful expedition with grilled steaks, champagne, and, of course, talk of next year’s ride down the Met-Win.

The Bulletin

By Hillary Borrud The Bulletin

A Redmond company that produces barbecue sauces, spices and rubs could be the first business to receive a forgivable small business loan from Deschutes County, through a new program to help businesses expand or relocate to the county. Rocky Mountain Products asked for $100,000 to hire and train new employees as the company expands to produce ready-to-eat meat products, according to Economic Development for Central Oregon, or EDCO. The Deschutes County Commission on Wednesday agreed

to loan the company $56,000, although one commissioner voiced concern and abstained from voting because the county had to write off part of a previous loan to the company.

Recommended that company raise more Management at Rocky Mountain Products could not be reached for comment. EDCO, which is administering the new loans, recommended loaning Rocky Mountain Products $56,000, once the company raises $550,000 from other lenders or programs. See Loan / C5

Bend man gets 6 years for fight DESCHUTES COUNTY in park that ended friend’s life Hill withdraws By Erin Golden The Bulletin

Before he was sentenced to more than six years in prison, Darrell Harrington told a judge on Wednesday that the man he killed in a December fight in Bend’s Columbia Park was a friend. Shawn Ray Owen, 37, died Dec. 27 after suffering serious head injuries. Witnesses at the scene told police that Harrington, 29, of Bend, and Owen got into an argument that quickly turned physical, with Harrington eventually punching Owen and then kicking him in the head “like a soccer ball” as he lay on the ground. One man interviewed by officers said the fight was related to an issue with Owen’s girlfriend, according to a search warrant affidavit filed by a Bend police detective. When police arrived, Owen was unconscious. Harrington was charged with second-degree manslaughter and second-degree assault. But after negotiations between prosecutors and his court-appointed attorney, Harrington agreed to instead plead guilty to one count of crimi-

nally negligent homicide. On Wednesday morning, Harrington listened as Deschutes County Deputy District Attorney Kandy Gies read Darrell letters written Harrington by Owen’s mother, brother and uncle. His mother and father participated in the hearing by phone, and at times they could be heard crying on the speakerphone in the courtroom.

‘The darkness of life’ Each of the letters expressed sadness about Owen’s death, but also forgiveness for Harrington’s actions. “Losing my son has been devastating,” wrote Owen’s mother, Ginger Peschl. “He was my only child, and I loved him very much.” Owen’s uncle, Michael Selan, wrote that he appreciated Harrington’s show of remorse. “I don’t hate you,” he wrote. “I

hate that you have been caught up in the darkness of life and acted out.” Harrington apologized for the fight and told Owen’s family that he understood what they were going through. “What happened that night was certainly not intended, and it got out of control, and I am sorry,” he said. His attorney, Samuel Ramirez, said Harrington considered Owen a friend and had assumed that they’d pick up where they left off after the brawl. “Know that there were no malicious intentions,” Harrington said. “Sean was a friend of mine.” Harrington was sentenced to 76 months in prison and another three years of post-prison supervision. He was also sentenced for a handful of previous charges, including probation violations and a drunken driving conviction, for which he will lose his driver’s license for a year when he gets out of prison.

from judge race

By Erin Golden The Bulletin

One of the two candidates in the running for an open Deschutes County Circuit Court judge position has withdrawn from the race. Thomas Hill, who was virtually neck and neck with competitor Wells Ashby in the May primary, pulled his name off the ballot on Aug. 27. Hill could not be reached for comment on Wednesday, and state election records only list “personal choice” as Hill’s reaThomas Hill son for withdrawing from the race. With Hill out of the race, Ashby likely will be the only name on the ballot this fall. Hill, an attorney with the Bend firm of Ash Hill & Associates LLP, received 13,013 votes in the primary, just short of Ashby’s 13,047 votes. Because neither candidate received more than half of the total votes, the contest was scheduled to go on to the November general election. See Judge / C5

MISSING BOY’S ‘WALL OF HOPE’ RELOCATED

Microsoft blocks gamer over town’s name: Fort Gay By Vicki Smith The Associated Press

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Seattle-based Microsoft Corp. and the chief rules enforcer for Xbox Live are apologizing to a small West Virginia town and a 26-year-old gamer accused of violating the online gaming service’s code of conduct by publicly declaring he’s from Fort Gay — a name the company considered offensive. When Josh Moore tried to tell Microsoft and the enforcement team at Xbox Live that the name is real, they wouldn’t

take his word for it. Or Google it. Or check the U.S. Postal Service website for a ZIP code. Instead, they suspended his gaming privileges for a few days until Moore could convince them the location in his profile, “fort gay WV,� is an actual community of about 800 in Wayne County. “At first I thought, ‘Wow, somebody’s thinking I live in the gayest town in West Virginia or something.’ I was mad. ... It makes me feel like they hate gay people,� said Moore, who plays under the gamertag

Joshanboo. Mayor David Thompson also tried to intervene, but with little success. He told television station WSAZ that he was informed the city’s name didn’t matter. The word “gay,� he was told, was inappropriate in any context. “That’s the name of our town! It’s appalling. It’s a slap in our face,� Thompson told the AP Wednesday. Stephen Toulouse, director of policy and enforcement for Xbox Live blamed miscommunication.

Eugene fugitive arrested in Bend A Eugene man wanted by police for several crimes, including attempting to escape from Redmond police officers in August, was arrested Tuesday evening after running from police in Bend. Matthew Paul Forster, 31, had warrants out for his arrest for violating his parole and a variety of other crimes, including reckless driving, recklessly endangering another person and attempting to elude officers, according to a news release from the Bend Police Department. At about 9:10 p.m. Tuesday, officers were called to the area of Northeast Second Street and Northeast Irving Avenue in Bend after someone staying at Motel West reported seeing a suspicious man jump over a fence when a police car passed by. When the guest pointed out Forster as the suspicious man and police tried to talk to him, he took off on foot toward Northeast Third Street. At the intersection of Third Street and Greenwood Avenue, he tried to get into a car driven by a 52-year-old Bend woman, but was unsuccessful, the release said. After a short struggle, officers arrested Forster on the outstanding warrants and on suspicion of attempted unauthorized use of a vehicle, third-degree escape and attempting to elude officers. He was lodged in the Deschutes County jail on $47,500 bail.

Bend developer’s condition improves The condition of Bend Developer Stephen Trono, who has been hospitalized since he was shot several times in his home more than a month ago, has been upgraded from critical to serious condition. Trono, 60, was shot by his wife, who told police she believed he was an intruder. He was taken to St. Charles Bend on July 28, the day of the shooting, and remained there until Sunday, when he was

transferred to Oregon Health & Science University in Portland. Trono’s condition has fluctuated over the last month. He was listed in critical condition until Aug. 6, when he was upgraded to serious condition. His health worsened on Aug. 20 and he remained in critical condition until Wednesday, according to an OHSU spokesman. No charges have been filed in the case, which is still under investigation by the Bend Police Department. Lt. Ben Gregory said on Wednesday that detectives have not been able to interview Trono about the shooting.

County gives resort more time to build The Deschutes County Commission voted 2-1 Wednesday in favor of giving the developer of Tetherow resort another year to build required overnight lodging units, such as a hotel, said Senior Planner Anthony Raguine. Commissioner Dennis Luke voted against the extension. It was the second time Tetherow’s developer requested, and received, a one-year extension to build the units, which are required in all new destination resorts. Now, the resort’s owners will have to sign the amendment to extend the agreement for the overnight lodging units by Sept. 25, or it will expire, Raguine said.

Volunteers needed for Bend Sept. 11 project Volunteers are still needed for the Sept. 11 day of service and remembrance volunteer project in Bend, according to a news release.

O Age discrimination trial against Medford opens Friend testifies The Associated Press MEDFORD — An age discrimination lawsuit against the city of Medford led by the former city attorney claims that a change in insurance carriers and coverage affected mostly older workers. Lawsuits filed by former City Attorney Ron Doyle and Joseph Bova, who is employed by the Public Works Department, have been separately winding their way through state and federal courtrooms for nearly six years. The case being heard this week in Jackson County Circuit Court by Judge Mark Schiveley com-

bines several complaints. But the central issue is whether the city discriminated against older employees when City Manager Mike Dyal bypassed Doyle’s legal objections and changed the city’s insurance carrier and coverage in 2002. On Tuesday, attorneys for the employees, Steve Brischetto and George Fisher, asked Dyal to read a series of memos he and city staff had written that discussed employee ages and the need to save on insurance costs. Dyal said remarks about savings and the city’s “maturing

work force” were being taken out of context. He said he was simply seeking to mitigate a 40 percent increase in insurance costs at the time of the switch.

Early retirees The employees claimed they were forced to pay for high-cost insurance when the city declined to extend their health insurance coverage after they retired early. The city also is dealing with a separate class-action suit that has similar legal arguments, filed in 2006 in U.S. District Court in

Medford by Bova and Marlene Scudder of the Medford Police Department. The complex case has produced other rulings: In February, the Oregon Supreme Court ruled the city should make health coverage available to workers who have taken early retirement but added the qualifying language of “insofar as and to the extent possible.” In May, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that city employees have no constitutional right to health insurance coverage should they retire early.

Klamath refuge in worst shape since ’40s

Earlier this summer, Cole said, he sent a request to the Bureau of Reclamation for 15,000 acre-feet of water, enough to flood 5,000 acres of the refuge’s seasonal marsh and potentially provide habitat for upward of a half-million migrating waterfowl. He and Mauser note that 80 percent of the birds traveling the Pacific Flyway use the various Klamath Basin refuges, with the majority of those using Lower Klamath. “We’ve got a lot of food we’ve grown this year,” Cole said of manipulating water to grow smartweeds, which has nutrient-rich seeds favored by migrating waterfowl. “We set the table. That’s all food ready to be covered with water, and it will be a show if we get water. If we don’t, the birds won’t land.” Cole and Mauser say the condition of Lower Klamath is the direst on record since the 1940s, as evidenced by mud flats, cracks in the mud and miles of barren wetlands. Because the Lower Klamath and Tule Lake refuges are within the Klamath Reclamation Project, both are dependent on Bureau of Reclamation allocations. Under the priority system, endangered species are first in line for water, followed by tribal subsistence fisheries in Upper Klamath Lake and the Klamath River. Next are Klamath Project farmers. The refuges are last, with water available only after other users receive full allotments. Cole said Tule Lake has fewer water shortages because it serves as a collecting point for upstream agriculture lands.

EUGENE — A longtime friend of a man accused of using an Islamic charity to smuggle money to Muslim fighters in Chechnya has testified that defendant Pete Seda wanted to promote peace and help orphans. Seda is on trial in federal court in Eugene on charges he and a fellow officer of the U.S. branch of the Al-Haramain Islamic Foundation smuggled $150,000 to Saudi Arabia in March 2000 in hopes the money would reach mujahedeen in Chechnya. David Rodgers testified Tuesday. He currently lives in Saudi

He read from the charity’s statement of purpose, which includes promoting “peace through understanding of Islam.” In answer to a question, Rodgers said his friend never talked about sending money to fund Pete Seda fighting in Chechnya. Radio station KLCC in Eugene says testimony in the trial is expected to wrap up this week.

State defends airport control tower plans

By Lee Juillerat KLAMATH FALLS — Cracks in the mud. Mile after mile of dry, barren fields. Plants wanting for water. Most years, large sections of the Lower Klamath National Wildlife Refuge — the nation’s oldest waterfowl refuge — are covered with water and waterloving, early arriving migratory waterfowl. Most years, refuge managers are channeling water to selected units for ducks, geese, swans and other birds on or preparing for their annual northward migration. This isn’t most years. Instead, Ron Cole and Dave Mauser view conditions on the 46,900-acre refuge with a mix of dismay and frustration. Cole, the Klamath Basin National Wildlife Refuge Complex manager, has intermittently worked at Basin refuges since the 1980s. Mauser, a wildlife biologist, has worked in the Basin since 1991. “This is the driest I’ve ever seen it,” Mauser said, gazing over dried-out sections of Unit 2, which most Septembers are filling with migrating pintails and other birds. “This is such a terrible year for water,” agreed Cole. “People are just starting to realize how dry we are.”

A sign warns drivers of upcoming road work on the Sellwood Bridge in Portland on Wednesday. The 19th annual highway report by the Reason Foundation pushed Oregon into the top 10.

Oregon road ranking rises to 10th in nation The Associated Press MEDFORD — A new report that ranks states for the quality of their roads and highways lists Oregon as No. 10 nationally. The 19th annual highway report by the Reason Foundation pushed Oregon into the top 10 from No. 23 in the previous report. The report measures the condition and cost-effectiveness of state-owned roads in a dozen categories. “Basically, we’re trying to figure out which of the state highway programs is producing the most bang for the buck, the amount of money spent relative to size of the system,” said the report’s author, David Hartgen, Transportation Studies professor emeritus at the University of North Carolina-Charlotte and senior fellow at the Los Angelesbased Reason Foundation. Hartgen said that the Oregon highway system is smaller than average at 8,166 miles. But neighboring Washington state is spending more money on a

America’s roads are in far better shape than they were about 50 years ago, Hartgen said. “You hear about our crumbling infrastructure all the time,” he said. “It’s just a myth. Certainly there are individual sections of roads and bridges that are decaying, but in aggregate, the system has never been better.” Oregon tied for No. 1 in rural

interstate condition with virtually no miles considered in poor condition. Mike Montero, co-chairman of the Rogue Valley Area Commission on Transportation, said the Oregon Department of Transportation has diligently maintained road surfaces to avoid greater reconstruction costs. “ODOT performs a rigorous analysis to determine when to repair, what to repair in which order, Montero said. “There’s a real science to it. Once pavement deteriorates below a certain threshold, the cost to rehabilitate roads goes up exponentially.” The Highway Report takes into consideration 13 factors: state-controlled highway miles; state highway agency miles; rural interstate condition; other rural principal arterial condition; urban interstate condition and congestion; deficient or functionally obsolete bridges; fatality rates; narrow rural lanes; and total, capital, bridge, maintenance and administrative disbursements.

O B Jury selection begins in bank bombing trial

OSU alum gives $1M to veterinary school

to support students, faculty and programs at Oregon State.

SALEM — Jury selection has begun in the aggravated murder trial for a father and son accused of planting a bomb outside a bank in Woodburn that killed two police officers. Bruce Turnidge and his son Joshua Turnidge are charged with the December 2008 deaths of Oregon State Police trooper and bomb technician William Hakim and Woodburn Police Capt. Thomas Tennant. The process of choosing 12 jurors and four alternates is expected to take about two weeks in Marion County Circuit Court in Salem. The court sent out about 1,600 summonses for potential jurors. Opening statements are scheduled Sept. 29. The trial is expected to last about 12 weeks.

CORVALLIS — An 87-yearold Oregon State University graduate has donated $1 million to OSU’s veterinary medicine program. University officials said Pete deLaubenfels of Corvallis asked the school to earmark some of the gift to increase public awareness about the impact of veterinary medicine on human health research. The native of Huntington Beach, Calif., did not enter college until 1960 at the age of 37 after starting his career as a police officer. DeLaubenfels became a teacher after earning his degree at Oregon State and worked for 22 years in education. Officials said the donation is part of The Campaign for OSU, which has raised $600 million toward a goal of $625 million

State agencies seek ways to cut $377.5M SALEM — The budget cuts are about to begin at state agencies in Oregon. The Department of Administrative Services has set targets for state agencies to cut $377.5 million needed to eliminate the latest projected shortfall in tax collections. The Statesman Journal reports the pending cuts amount to 8 percent for the nine months remaining in the budget cycle, which ends June 30. They are on top of earlier 9 percent cuts. Most of the cuts fall within a handful of agencies. The biggest cut will be $158.6 million from the state school fund, followed by $104.5 million from the Department of Human Services. — From wire reports

PORTLAND — In response to criticism that it has moved ahead too quickly with plans to build a control tower at Aurora State Airport, the Oregon Department of Aviation is standing firm in its assertion that its only intention is to improve safety while money is available to do so. The project, which last month officially received $4.3 million in lottery-backed funds, has taken hits from Clackamas County and Wilsonville city officials, who say the project places state interests above local ones. But the Department of Aviation, the state agency that runs the airport, says the quick timeline is necessary to qualify for a share of money available through the ConnectOregon III program. With 450 aircraft based at the airport and sharing its one runway, state aviation officials say a staffed-control tower is necessary to avoid any potential accidents. “This tower isn’t about future growth at the airport or potential revenues to the state,” said Mark Gardiner, chair of the Oregon Aviation Board. “It’s all about making the airport safer for its many users and the people around it.” The Federal Aviation Administration agreed the airport needed a manned tower and said it would pay for the position. But that still left a gap in how the state aviation department would pay for the tower’s construction. Then the ConnectOregon money became available. The Oregon Legislature

“This tower isn’t about future growth at the airport or potential revenues to the state. It’s all about making the airport safer for its many users and the people around it.” — Mark Gardiner, chair of the Oregon Aviation Board created ConnectOregon in 2005 as a way to provide money for non-highway transportation projects such as fixing rails and improving airports. The third and most recent phase of the program contained $97.1 million for 41 projects. The airport tower ranked No. 4 on a list of priority projects. But the city of Wilsonville and Clackamas County, both of which border the north side of the airport, have said the project shouldn’t have been submitted because the airport’s master plan hasn’t been updated yet. By law, the update must be completed every 10 years. The airport’s update was supposed to have been finished at the beginning of this year but was delayed by a lack of money and won’t be done until next year, according to Mitch Swecker, state airports manager for the Department of Aviation.

‘Nuisance’ kennel was there first

T

he flap in a Crook County neighborhood over a dog-breeding operation should be a lesson to anyone moving into a new home. Do your homework first, and if you don’t like

your prospective neighbors, don’t move in. Had a handful of Sylvia Whitmore’s neighbors done that, an appeal of a county planning commission decision about her kennel would never have been filed. Those neighbors would have discovered that Whitmore operates a dog kennel housing as many as 50 animals at one time. She’s been in business at the same location for more than 30 years, though when she first opened up shop she had precious few neighbors nearby. That’s changed over the years, and now some of those neighbors think the kennel is far too noisy, although it is located on 60 acres, hardly a small piece of property. The planning commission recently affirmed Whitmore’s right to continue operating the kennel, saying she’s entitled to do so under a 1973 ordinance that allowed animal husbandry on the property. A dog kennel operation, the planners said, qualifies as animal husbandry. It’s that decision that neighbors are appealing. It’s a legal matter that never should have arisen. Had the disgruntled neighbors either checked more carefully or been a bit more realistic, they’d have recognized there is a kennel in the neighborhood and that

Had the disgruntled neighbors either checked more carefully or been a bit more realistic, they’d have recognized there is a kennel in the neighborhood and that kennels — surprise, surprise — can be the source of considerable barking. kennels — surprise, surprise — can be the source of considerable barking. If they’re successful, they’ll shut down a business that’s been in operation for more than three decades. The law requires that property sellers complete a four-page disclosure about everything from a home’s water system to dry rot. It does not require the seller to tell a potential buyer what the neighbors are up to, nor should it. Potential buyers who fail to thoroughly check out a neighborhood, particularly one that’s moving from rural to subdivision, have only themselves to blame when they discover something like a kennel next door.

Health mandates driving up costs I

f you go to the store one day and put a pound of hamburger and a loaf of bread in your basket you’ll pay one thing, say, $7. If you go back a week later and purchase the hamburger, the bread and a bottle of wine, you might pay $20. The store isn’t gouging you on your second trip. It’s simply charging you more because you purchased more. It’s that same principle — the more you get, the more you’ll pay — that is behind what is likely to be the rising cost of health insurance for small business and individuals this year. The federal health care overhaul requires that insurers offer more, and those insurers will charge their customers more as a result. Lots of things are being added to the basic health insurance basket under the law. Parents may keep their children on their policies until age 26. Insurance companies may not demand copayments for preventive care, though no one expects doctors to give it away for free. Insurers may not refuse to cover a child with a preexisting condition, and they may not cap the payout they’re expected to make for any given patient. All that

adds up to more cost for insurers and, no surprise, more cost for those who purchase health care insurance. The bumped-up coverage translates directly into insurance company requests to charge their customers more. In Oregon, Regence BlueCross BlueShield seeks a 17.1 percent increase, with 3.4 percentage points of the total attributed to the new mandates, according to The Wall Street Journal. Oregon’s ODS Health Plan, meanwhile, says 6.01 points of the 20.73-percentage-point increase it seeks is attributable to the mandates. In Kansas, meanwhile, the Mennonite Mutual Aid Society asks for only 4 percent more in premiums, every bit of which will go to finance the new requirements. Though you may, as the Obama administration apparently does, argue that much of the increase being attributed to mandates is simply gouging on the part of insurers, logic tells you otherwise. If the government forced every store in the country to throw in a bottle of wine with the purchase of hamburger and bread, it doesn’t make much sense to demonize the store for asking for compensation.

My Nickel’s Worth Drugs and oil According to Webster, the definition of a tribe is: A social group comprising numerous families, clans or generations together with slaves, dependents or adopted strangers. The Middle East is full of tribes. Our national security is being controlled by tribal cultures, e.g., Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran. The only reasons that we have to deal with these cultures are oil and drugs. It is time that we develop our own oil reserves and become oil-independent, and revisit our policy of drug prohibition. It is truly a pity that we have to squander our resources fighting an entrenched tribal culture in Afghanistan, a country with an illiteracy rate of more than 80 percent, in order eradicate the gangster element called the Taliban, whose main reason for existing is to control the opium trade. Now that we are removing our troops from Iraq, the Sunnis and Shiites are reverting to their tribal natures and proceeding to exterminate themselves. The Middle East is as volatile as it was in 2003, and since that time we have squandered our efforts at developing our own oil reserves, and putting to the national forefront a viable approach to drug control. This is my naïve opinion on two issues that control our destiny. These issues remain at the forefront of our war

on terror. Joe Corley Bend

Expensive death penalty The recent news that Randy Guzek is seeking a new trial is abominable. I have lost my enthusiasm for the death penalty. A life sentence certainly would have cost far less than the $2.3 million the state has spent for his indigent defense. Carl Vertrees Redmond

Firing Nakahira wrong I was floored to read that (Deschutes County District Attorney-elect) Patrick Flaherty, in either his arrogance or insecurity, gave the boot to Darryl Nakahira. Not only is Darryl a superb prosecutor and all-around good guy, but he has a wealth of history with cases going back a long, long time. It has been my experience that when employees consider unionization, it is either because of fear for their jobs or horrible management (or both). It’s quite obvious that the district attorney’s office staff is girding itself for some management problems when Flaherty takes over. I know that Nakahira has said he desires to be a career prosecutor (which means he’ll have to leave Deschutes County — our loss), but I’d love to see him go into private

practice and kick Flaherty’s butt all the way to New York. Thanks for your great work, Darryl. You’ll be missed. Jude Fulghum Sunriver

Costly green energy The editorial, “Prepare to pay for green energy” in the July 19 Bulletin presented some interesting reading, which urged me to submit my concerns. First, assuming the average Pacific Power customer’s monthly electric bill is $75, the 15 percent increase amounts to $11.25. Pacific Power’s customer base is 580,000 (per The Bulletin). Multiplying $11.25 per month times 12 months per year times 580,000 customers yields $78.3 million in additional revenue in one year. Second, the editorial, “Driving up costs for the climate” in the July 30 Bulletin hinted “likely to make living in Oregon more complicated and drive up the power bill.” I believe this to be true. I doubt a reduction in the rate increase will ever occur. Therefore, the beneficiaries are: 1) Climate — questionable. 2) Pacific Power and Light — increased financial status. 3) Shareholders — increased dividends. 4) Customers — costly “green energy.” Jack Bloom Bend

Bend water project could threaten Tumalo Creek, middle Deschutes By Erik Kancler Bulletin guest columnist

A

s cities plan to provide infrastructure for growing populations, they usually take a variety of factors into account. Not only do they strive to meet projected demands for services, they most always strive to provide cost-effective solutions, improve underlying conditions for economic development, and protect the surrounding landscape from unnecessary harm. As the city of Bend pursues the upgrade and potential expansion of its surface water facilities along Bridge Creek, it’s not clear that any of these basic criteria has been satisfied, or in some cases, even considered. From a fiscal perspective, the big question isn’t whether the costs of the proposed expansion are justified, but whether the Bridge Creek facility is the most cost-effective means of meeting the city’s demands going forward. Some at the city seem to have predetermined that an expansion of the facility is the preferred alternative despite not having

demonstrated a clear understanding of where the money for even basic ongoing maintenance and necessary upgrades is likely to come from or adequately reached out to the public for input on what could amount to one of the single most expensive infrastructure projects the city has ever considered. While city officials have held at least some public debate on the fiscal elements of certain options, they have completely sidestepped other important issues. Among those is a failure to fully and openly examine the impacts of the Bridge Creek facility and its proposed expansion on Tumalo Creek — of which Bridge Creek is a tributary — and on Tumalo Falls. Most people are probably unaware that much of the water the city diverts from Bridge Creek is first diverted out of Tumalo Creek, several miles upstream from Tumalo Falls. Within the overall Tumalo watershed, the city possesses 36 cubic feet per second of surface water rights. In recent years, the city has diverted up to 15.5 cfs during summer

IN MY VIEW months, reducing flows in Tumalo Creek by as much as 20 percent. That leaves 20.5 cubic feet of water per second and the possibility that the city could in theory more than double the amount of water it takes out of Tumalo Creek over time. Should the city increase its diversion by anywhere near such an amount, it would further decrease Tumalo Creek’s flow, warming the creek, degrading close to 20 miles of native fish habitat, and potentially nullifying the benefits of more than $7 million in recent conservation investments. Tumalo Creek, with Tumalo Falls at its heart, is one of the most significant “natural amenities” the region offers. It spans from Tumalo State Park to Shevlin Park and up to the Tumalo Falls Interpretive Site and beyond with miles of recreational trails and numerous access points in between. A degraded Tumalo Creek and Tumalo Falls would dimin-

ish Central Oregon’s collective tourism, recreational and economic potential. Admittedly, several things would need to happen for the city to divert more water via its Bridge Creek facility. Primarily it would need to replace its current pipe with a larger-diameter pipe capable of carrying more water. In order to gain approval, the city would need to demonstrate compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act, given that much of its facility is on federal lands. The city would also have to wait for Tumalo Irrigation District (which holds senior water rights in the Tumalo basin) to free up excess water rights, which will happen over time as it pipes its canals. The city’s leaders may claim no interest in utilizing the city’s full water rights. However, should the city succeed in obtaining the approvals necessary to proceed with expanding its facilities without also guaranteeing permanent protection for Tumalo Creek’s natural flows, there would be no way to

prevent future leaders from authorizing the full use of the city’s water rights and irreparably harming Tumalo Creek and Tumalo Falls in the process. What’s more, conservationists have long hoped that as Tumalo Irrigation District reduces its diversion from Tumalo Creek, the “excess” water could be left in-stream to improve fish habitat. The return of this cold water would dramatically improve the health of lower Tumalo Creek as well as more than 30 miles of the middle Deschutes. Should the city ultimately utilize its full water rights, it would almost certainly prevent this future conservation success story from ever happening. If concerned citizens want a say in the outcome of this process and its impacts to Tumalo Creek, Tumalo Falls, and the future restoration of the middle Deschutes, it appears they’re going to have demand it themselves and that they’re going to have to do it soon. Erik Kancler is executive director of Central Oregon Landwatch.

Loan

Alfred ‘Glenn’ Green

Continued from C1 Rocky Mountain Products is supposed to create 56 jobs by the end of the second quarter of 2011 and maintain them until the second quarter of 2012, or it will have to repay some or all of the loan, according to an EDCO briefing paper. Commissioner Dennis Luke abstained from the vote Wednesday because he said he was biased by his previous experience with a loan to Rocky Mountain Products. In 1995, Deschutes County loaned the company $200,000 at an 8 percent interest rate, Dave Inbody, assistant to the Deschutes County administrator, wrote in an e-mail. Several times, Rocky Mountain Products stopped making loan payments, and then started paying again, Inbody wrote. In May 2003, the company still owed approximately $27,862 and offered to settle the debt for $12,500. County commissioners rejected the offer, but ultimately accepted the company’s subsequent settlement offer of $15,000, he wrote. The county used federal money intended for loans to businesses considered too risky for bank loans, Luke said.

‘Bonanza’ creator Dortort dies at 93 By Bruce Weber New York Times News Service

David Dortort, a television writer and producer whose idea to create a Western drama based not on shoot-’em-ups but instead on the travails of a loving family resulted in “Bonanza,” one of the most popular shows in history, died Sunday in Los Angeles. He was 93. The cause was uncertain, but he had a history of heart problems, said his daughter, Wendy Czarnecki. In 1958, NBC asked Dortort to develop a Western for NBC itself to produce, an opportunity that Dortort — who studied American history at City College of New York — seized upon to combat what he called “the myth of the lone

gunfighter.” The idea of “Bonanza,” as the show came to be called, was to depict the story of the American West — “one of the great migrations of all time,” he called it — with accuracy. “The gunfighter played a small, inconsequential role in the story of the West,” Dortort explained in a 2002. “The true history of the West is about family, pioneers.” “Bonanza” appeared for the first time at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 12, 1959, on CBS. Two years later it moved to 9 p.m. Sunday and became a dominant hit, running for 14 seasons — including three years, from 1964 to 1967, when it was the most-watched show in the country.

Master knife-maker dies at 81 By Valerie J. Nelson Los Angeles Times

R.W. “Bob” Loveless, who made some of the world’s most coveted sporting cutlery by refining knife design to high art, has died. He was 81. Loveless died Sept. 2 of lung cancer at his longtime home in Riverside, Calif., said his friend Jack Lucarelli. “He is pretty much the Picasso of the knife world and the father of 20th-century knifemaking,” said John Denton, an authority on Loveless knives. “His design is what made him famous.” To many hunters, collectors and fellow bladesmen, Love-

Redmond Continued from C1 The city’s offer for the 31-000-square-foot building is low, in part, because Redmond staff members have estimated it would cost about $5 million to convert the building. Those costs include renovating the building and installing a new heating system. The city has

less crafted the best handmade knives in the modern world. He was known for fixed-blade knives with unsurpassed workmanship. “He always said, ‘You want it to look so good that you want to pick it up, and feel so good that you don’t want to put it down,’ ” Denton recalled. In 1953, Loveless was a seaman on furlough when he tried to buy a blade by master knifemaker Bo Randall at sporting outfitter Abercrombie & Fitch. Told there was a nine-month waiting list, Loveless later said he thought, “It can’t be so hard,” and decided to make his own.

Returning to his ship, he created his first knife from the steel spring of a 1930s Packard automobile, forging the blade on a galley stove. He sold his first knives for $14 to Abercrombie & Fitch in 1954. When Loveless died, he was selling his knives for $5,000 to $20,000, said Edmund Davidson, a Virginia knife-maker. Loveless’ most popular blade was a widely imitated drop-point hunting knife, “a modern-day classic which many consider the most attractive knife design of all time,” American Handgunner magazine said in 2006.

Sauce for payments “They offered to give us barbecue sauce for interest payments,” Luke said. The company’s finances have improved since then, Jon Stark, manager of Redmond Economic Development, told the commissioners Wednesday. Roger Lee, executive director of EDCO, agreed that Rocky Mountain Products is more stable, although he said the county should still be aware that loaning the company money might entail some risks. The county and city of Bend created the business loan fund over the summer. They will forgive the loans if businesses create the number of jobs they promise. Loan agreements will include a provision to allow the county and city to recover part or all of the money from a business that creates fewer jobs than promised — or none at all. . The program is aimed at companies that export goods or services outside the region, Lee has said. More companies, both inside and outside Deschutes County, are in the process of applying for the loans, he said Wednesday. Deschutes County contributed approximately $300,000 to the business loan fund, from a windfall in foreclosure-related revenue in the county’s general fund. Lenders pay the county clerk’s office to record documents leading up to foreclosures, and then pay off delinquent tax bills when they take possession of properties. Following the collapse of the housing market and the recession, foreclosures increased dramatically and the county received more of this money. The city of Bend put about $65,000 into the business loan fund, from a pot of more than $1 million the city received from Cascade Natural Gas Corp. last fall, after an audit revealed the utility inadvertently shorted Bend on franchise fees through two decades of billing errors. The City Council will also have to approve the loans, City Recorder Patti Stell wrote in an e-mail. Hillary Borrud can be reached at 541-617-7829 or at hborrud@bendbulletin.com.

said it would sell the building to a developer and lease Evergreen back, with an agreement to eventually purchase. Mayor George Endicott said the city was interested in Evergreen because it is historical and residents want the building saved. If the district finds a higher offer, the city will stick with its original plan to build a new City Hall for around $8 million, Endicott said. No schedule

has been set for building a new City Hall, so the city can wait to see what happens with the new listing. “We’re not in any hurry,” Endicott said. “We wish them luck.” Compass Commercial, the district’s agent, will list Evergreen with the new price soon, Erickson said. Even though the district would like to sell to the city, the board members feel

they must attempt to get the best price, Erickson said. Despite putting the school back on the market, board members still hope the building ends up as something for the public. “The desire is still to work with the city, to make it a public-use facility,” he said.

in Colorado, with a firm that specialized in banking insurance defense work. He said he learned Hill had dropped out of the race on Tuesday, but has not spoken to Hill about his decision. “I think that’s clear from the vote that Mr. Hill and I had strong support,” he said. “I would not characterize it as a particularly contentious race. We both wanted to win, but I

thought as far as political races go, it was a fine race on both sides.” State campaign finance records show that Ashby has raised about $14,336 in contributions, while Hill brought in about $17,074. Hill spent significantly more on his campaign: $18,131, compared to Ashby’s $7,940. Hill’s campaign committee still has about $7,724 in outstanding

loans. The candidate elected in November will begin a six-year term in January, replacing retiring Judge Edward Perkins, who has been on the bench for three decades. Circuit Court judge positions pay $114,468 per year.

Fundraiser’s Spotted owl recovery $1,600 apt to take 30 years bike stolen Revised plan during ride across U.S. The Associated Press

The Associated Press PORTLAND — A man riding across the country on a bicycle to raise money to buy bicycles for children in military families had his bike stolen in Portland. Paul Lebelle said the $1,600 Cannondale touring bike nicknamed “Buttercup” was taken from a front porch while Lebelle was inside grabbing a bagel after a TV interview. Lebelle told The Oregonian that, after riding 3,500 miles from Maryland to Oregon, he never had a problem.

PORTLAND — The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service says it will use the best scientific data to revise a 2008 Bush administration recovery plan for the northern spotted owl. The draft plan released Wednesday says it will take 30 years, rather than 10 years, to recover the threatened bird at an estimated cost of about $147 million. The service’s Paul Henson says the agency is trying to identify the highest-quality owl habitat and the potential need for nonfederal

The newspaper reported that Cannondale called Lebelle to say it had another bike for him, and Portland cyclists have offered him their bicycles to complete his ride. But Lebelle hopes he can get Buttercup back. The olive-forest green Cannondale Touring 2 bicycle has blue handlebar grip tape, silver clipless pedals, three black water-bottle holders and a rear rack.

PORTLAND — Lawyers for a man who wants to hold the Vatican accountable for the priest who molested him in the 1960s have asked an Oregon judge to allow them to question top cardinals. The lawyers filed papers Wednesday outlining requests for depositions from Cardinal William Levada and others. Levada heads the office that defrocks pedophile priests. The man known in court documents as John V. Doe filed suit eight years ago. No trial date is set.

Recent legal arguments are over whether the Vatican is actually the employer of priests. A ruling that it is could allow the suit to go ahead. The Vatican’s lawyers argue that it is not responsible for individual priests. In August, three men dropped a Kentucky suit that tried to link the Vatican to the abuse scandal.

A federal judge last week ordered revisions to the 2008 recovery plan and critical habitat designation after the Obama administration sought to have it sent back. The administration cited an inspector general’s report finding the decision-making process was potentially jeopardized by improper political influence.

Elks’ Richards is named MVP of WCL

Ryan’s hope? A title

After leading the West Coast League in hitting with a .364 batting average, Bend Elk second baseman Tommy Richards has been named the league’s 2010 Most Valuable Player. In addition to winning the WCL batting crown, Richards, a junior-to-be at Washington State University, finished second in the league in hits (60), third in RBIs (33), and sixth in on-base percentage (.429). With Richards hitting third in the Elks’ lineup for most of the summer, Bend went 2721 during the regular season before defeating the Corvallis Knights two games to zero in the WCL West Division Series. Bend then fell to the Wenatchee AppleSox, two games to one, in the league’s championship series. A 2008 graduate of Bend High, Richards was named to the all-WCL first team on Aug. 30. Kelowna Falcons lefthander Dayne Quist (6-0, 1.40 ERA) was named the WCL’s Pitcher of the Year and Wenatchee’s Ed Knaggs was selected as the league’s Coach of the Year for the second consecutive season. Walla Walla Sweet general manager Zachary Fraser was chosen as the WCL’s Executive of the Year. — Bulletin staff report

T

he noise was about to blow the lid off the Louisiana Superdome, as roaring New Orleans fans implored their Saints to turn back the Minnesota Vikings’ drive late in the fourth quarter of last January’s NFC Championship Game. As veteran quarterback Brett Favre marched the Vikings into Saints territory, Ryan Longwell prepared on the sidelines to kick a field goal that would break a 28-28 tie — and likely send Minnesota to the Super Bowl.

Who: New Orleans Saints vs. Minnesota Vikings Where: Louisiana Superdome When: 5:30 p.m. PDT TV: Live on NBC

In those anxious moments, Longwell allowed himself to absorb the experience. “I was getting ready for probably the biggest kick of my career,” the 1992 Bend High graduate recalled last week. “But I took a few seconds to look around and just take it all in. I said to myself, ‘Can you believe this?’ “It’s something I probably wouldn’t have done as a 23-yearold rookie,” Longwell added. See Ryan / D4

MILWAUKEE — oug Melvin wished he had a recording device with him. Along with everyone wearing a Milwaukee Brewers uniform, Melvin stood in the home clubhouse late Tuesday night, mesmerized by the words coming out of Trevor Hoffman’s mouth. “I’m big into Westerns,” said the Brewers’ general manager. “I felt like John Wayne was in the locker room.” Hoffman had just recorded the landmark 600th save of his major-league career, a glorious moment that led to being mobbed by teammates and eventually carried off the field on the shoulders of Prince Fielder, Ryan Braun and Todd Coffey. Before thanking his teammates for their support and camaraderie, Hoffman did a stunning thing, something that caught many by surprise. He apologized to them. Imagine that. A player reaches a pinnacle no other has accomplished and feels compelled to begin his speech with “I’m sorry.” He said, ‘I’m sorry I put the team in a bind at the start of the year. I take full responsibility,’ ” said Melvin. “You don’t hear things like that very often. He’s a great spokesman for the game.” Hoffman referred to his earlyseason meltdown, during which he blew five of 10 save opportunities while compiling a 13.15 earned run average through 14 outings. As a result, he forfeited his closer’s role and the march to 600 saves was stuck on No. 596 for some three months. See Hoffman / D5

y now, anyone with premium cable knows more about Rex Ryan and his band of merry Jets than they should. The way Ryan took to reality TV, there’s surely a season on “Survivor” or even “Dancing with the Stars” in his future should the football thing not work out. Hard not to like a fat, jolly man who isn’t afraid to talk big in a league where big talking tends to be discouraged. Bill Belichick he’s not, as evidenced in a scene on HBO’s “Hard Knocks” where Ryan mercilessly lashes his team for poor performance, then closes it out by yelling, “Let’s go eat a (expletive) snack.” See Season / D4

SPRAY — A bass twitched off the hook and nearly fell into Steve Fleming’s lap. “There’s a cloud above me, and it’s raining fish!” Fleming joked. During the late summer on the John Day River, temperatures often exceed 100 degrees. But it’s always raining fish. Smallmouth bass there are hungry and aggressive, and catching 100 fish in a single day is not uncommon. Fleming, of Mah-Hah Outfitters in Fossil, has small counters attached to his oars to keep track of just how many fish each person in the boat has landed. Last week, I made the two-hour drive from Bend, through Prineville and Mitchell, to Service Creek campground to meet Fleming and two other anglers for a day on the river. When Fleming picked me up, he got my attention with this: In mid-August, a 10-year-old boy in Fleming’s boat

on the John Day caught 223 bass one day and 218 the next. The boy and his grandfather caught and released 1,051 fish in three days with Fleming. I tried not to let that information get my hopes up, and I made a mental note to be satisfied with 20 or so fish. I reached that mark before noon. The third-longest free-flowing river (no dams) in the United States, the John Day runs nearly 300 miles from the Strawberry and Blue mountains to the Columbia River. Steelhead come up the river in October and November, and cutthroat trout can be caught in the upper reaches. The John Day is also home to carp and channel catfish. In 1971, the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife planted 80 smallmouth bass in the river near Service Creek, and smallmouth fry were scattered over a 50-mile stretch later that year. Now, the ODFW estimates the smallmouth bass population at an astonishing 1,000 fish per mile in the lower 200

miles of the river. The bass have no doubt flourished in the John Day, which has plenty of calm pools and food for the bass (bugs and crayfish). “It was a good fit,” Fleming said. “(Bass fishing) is the fastest-growing fishing in the U.S.” Fleming likes to use 1⁄16 -ounce leadhead and 2- to 3-inch plastic grubs or worms with Smelly Jelly scent. Doug Elder, of Fossil, and I would fish this way all day, casting toward the bank and waiting for bites, which were frequent. When we felt a tug, Fleming instructed us to drop the rod tip (so the bass does not feel the pressure of the hook), count to three, then set the hook. The plan was to drift about five miles from the tiny town of Spray to a private takeout just upstream of Service Creek. While Fleming prepared the boat at Spray, I felt a bite on my first cast from the bank. I missed the fish, but it did not take long to get the rhythm down. Soon, Elder and I were reeling in fish after fish, especially from the deeper holes. See Bass / D5

S B Football • Alabama’s Ingram probably won’t play Saturday: Heisman Trophy winner Mark Ingram is unlikely to play for No. 1 Alabama against No. 18 Penn State on Saturday. Ingram had left knee surgery last week, but Crimson Tide coach Nick Saban said Wednesday the junior running back was able to run the day before. Saban said Ingram’s knee was “improving every day,” but he probably won’t play against the Nittany Lions (1-0). Ingram wasn’t at practice Wednesday during the media viewing session. “We’ll continue to progress him day-to-day,” Saban said. “He hasn’t had any swelling or problems. If he can continue to progress — I would say he’s probably not going to be ready to play this week. He might be ready by the game, but he won’t be able to practice enough. Ingram sat out Alabama’s opener against San Jose State after having an arthroscopic procedure to repair an injury sustained in practice early on opening week. • NFL season tickets decline for 3rd straight season: Third down has a new meaning in the NFL this season. Season ticket sales declined for the third year in a row as teams struggle to get fans to the stadium in a weak economy. Depending on the final numbers, season ticket sales will be down between 1 percent and 2 percent, according to Eric Grubman, the league’s executive vice president for business ventures. “I wouldn’t say we’re pleased,” Grubman said Wednesday on the eve of the season opener between Minnesota and New Orleans. Grubman said overall attendance declined from 17 million in 2008 to 16.6 million last year. Average regular-season attendance dropped from each year from 2006 (68,774) to 2009 (67,509), according to STATS LLC.

Basketball • Serbia beats Spain in worlds: Serbia knocked defending champ Spain out of the world championship Wednesday when Milos Teodosic made a long three-pointer with 3.1 seconds left for a 92-89 quarterfinal victory. Spain erased an eight-point deficit in the final 4 minutes to tie it on Marc Gasol’s basket with 25 seconds remaining. After a timeout, Serbia patiently ran its offense until Teodosic — one of seven on three-pointers at that point — pulled up from straightaway, well beyond the arc. Avenging a loss in last year’s European championship game, Serbia advanced to face Turkey in a semifinal game Saturday. The hosts remained unbeaten with a 95-68 victory over Slovenia later Wednesday.

Cycling • Anton reclaims Spanish Vuelta lead: Igor Anton reclaimed the Spanish Vuelta’s overall lead by winning his second stage Wednesday with a tough uphill climb to the finish. Anton surrendered the leader’s red jersey to Joaquin Rodriguez a day earlier, but edged Ezequiel Mosquera of Xacobeo Galicia after breaking away over the last kilometer for a 3-second edge in the 11th stage. Anton finished the 129.5-mile ride in 5 hours, 25 minutes, 44 seconds. The 12th stage today is a 107.2-mile leg back into Spain, to the city of Lleida. — From wire reports

Federer, Wozniacki survive wind, advance to semis By Howard Fendrich The Associated Press

NEW YORK — For one match at least, Roger Federer was back to his old self. Back to beating Robin Soderling, and back to being a Grand Slam semifinalist — two things he used to do with such regularity. Treating the whipping wind and his familiar foe as only slight nuisances, 16-time Grand Slam champion Federer served his way to a convincing 6-4, 6-4, 7-5 victory over the fifthseeded Soderling in the U.S. Open quarterfinals Wednesday night. Federer had an 18-2 edge in aces against the big-hitting Soderling, mixing speed with pinpoint placement that kept the Swede guessing. “I’ve been practicing my serve a whole lot, for my whole career. If I can’t serve in the wind, I’ve got a problem, you know?” Federer said. “You could probably wake me up at 2 in the morning, or 4 in the morning, and I could hit a few serves.” The victory improved his career mark against Soderling to 13-1. The lone loss was in their previous match, in this year’s French Open quarterfinals. Soderling’s victory there ended Federer’s streak of reaching the semifinals at a record 23 consecutive major tournaments. Federer then lost in the quarterfinals at Wimbledon, too, prompting some to question whether his best days were behind him. But now, a month after his 29th birthday, he is back in the semifinals at a Grand Slam tournament — one that he has won five times. Federer has won 45 of his last 46 matches in Flushing Meadows, the one exception the 2009 final against Juan Martin del Potro. Federer will meet third-seeded Novak Djokovic in the semifinals for the third U.S. Open in a row. It’s also the fourth consecutive year they’ll play each other in New York, dating to the 2007

TENNIS: U.S. OPEN

Mark Humphrey / The Associated Press

Roger Federer reacts after defeating Robin Soderling 6-4, 6-4, 7-5 in a quarterfinal at the U.S. Open in New York on Wednesday. final, and Federer is 4-0 in those matches. “You never know what’s going to happen,” 2008 Australian Open champion Djokovic said after beating 17th-seeded Gael Monfils of France 7-6 (2), 6-1, 6-2 earlier Wednesday. “I don’t want to think about those losses in the last three years, which were really, really close.” All of the day’s matches were filled with wind that gusted at up to 30 mph, sending all sorts of

debris — brown napkins; plastic bags; players’ towels — rolling on the court like tumbleweed, forcing points to be stopped and repeatedly making players catch their ball tosses. About a half-dozen lets were called during top-seeded Caroline Wozniacki’s 6-2, 7-5 victory over 45th-ranked Dominika Cibulkova in the last women’s quarterfinal. “This felt like playing in a hurricane or something,” said Wozniacki, who is 19-1 since Wimbledon and has won her past 13 matches. In Friday’s semifinals, the 2009 U.S. Open runner-up will face 2010 Wimbledon runner-up Vera Zvonareva, who defeated 31st-seeded Kaia Kanepi of Estonia 6-3, 7-5 in Wednesday’s first singles match. A year ago in New York, during a fourthround loss, Zvonareva wasted six match points and threw a tantrum right there on court. She bawled. She slammed her racket against her leg. She begged the chair umpire to get her a pair of scissors so she could cut tape off her knees. And Wednesday? No. 7 Zvonareva was calm and composed, letting Kanepi make mistake after mistake, 60 unforced errors in all. Zvonareva finished with only 28. “Yeah, it was blowing in every way,” Kanepi said after falling to 0-3 in major quarterfinals. Neither afternoon match featured much drama — nor doubt about who would win. In sum, they felt akin to opening acts before Wednesday’s featured performers took the stage under the lights. First came Wozniacki-Cibulkova, with Donald Trump in attendance, his hair getting mussed by the wind. “He called my agent and asked if there was going to be a space in my box,” said Wozniacki, who made only 18 unforced errors, 25 fewer than Cibulkova. “I said, ‘Of course, there’s always a place for Mr. Trump.’

COLLEGE FOOTBALL

Vols turn to young receivers vs. Ducks By Beth Rucker The Associated Press

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Tennessee’s young wide receivers are going to have to learn on the job quickly. With seniors Gerld Jones and Denarius Moore nursing injuries, sophomore Zach Rogers and true freshmen Da’Rick Rogers and Justin Hunter will see plenty of playing time against seventh-ranked Oregon. “It’s not a question of, ‘Are they ready?’ They better be ready,” quarterback Matt Simms said. “It’s going to be tough on them. There’s going to be a lot asked of them.” Moore shed his walking boot and practiced for the first time Wednesday, but coach Derek Dooley said he wasn’t sure yet how much the Tatum, Texas, native would be able to play against the Ducks (1-0). Jones is recovering from surgery on a broken bone in his left hand. That means the young receivers will need to fill in for a pair of receivers who have a combined 162 catches and 1,289 yards between them. Jones has led the team in receiving for two seasons, while Moore’s seven touchdowns in 2009 led the Vols (1-0). By comparison, Zach Rogers has four career catches for 26 yards, and Da’Rick Rogers made his first reception, a 9-yard catch, last week in Tennessee’s 50-0 win over Tennessee-Martin. Hunter played in last week’s game, but didn’t catch a pass. “They didn’t really have a lot of opportunity,” coach Derek Dooley said. “Da’Rick caught a pass, which is always good to get that first one under your belt. He looked calm and it seemed very simple, but he looked good doing it.” He’ll have to do more than just look good catching passes. The young receivers are also tasked with blocking on running plays, something they likely didn’t do much of at the high school level. So far, they’ve appeared willing to do so, Dooley said. “The first thing you have to do as wideout is a willingness to want to block,” he said. “When you come out of high school and you think wide receiver, you think, ‘Throw me the ball and let me make some plays.’ But understanding the importance of (blocking) as it relates to the team’s success is the first hurdle, and I think we’ve cleared that with all our young guys.” Zach Rogers, who will fill in at Jones’ spot, has caught the coach’s eyes with his hard work, speed, good hands and willingness to block. Now the soft-spoken 6-foot Nashville native is working on his leadership skills a bit too. “I kind of like to be in the shadows,” Rogers said. I’m not a very outgoing guy. I’ve tried to step up this year. I was a little quiet and intimidated coming around these guys last year, and not being sure what to do. But I’m trying to step out of it this year and be a leader for those young guys.” The inexperience goes well beyond wide receiver. Simms, tailback Tauren Poole and at least four offensive linemen will be making their second career start Saturday. That doesn’t make the Vols any less dangerous, according to Oregon coach Chip Kelley. “They’re very athletic,” Kelly said. “Both running backs, Poole and (David) Oku, are really, really tough competitors. I have always thought (Simms) was a tremendous quarterback. Really played well in his opener. They’re big on the offensive line. We expect a battle.” For his part, Simms refuses to let the receivers head into Saturday without a little extra drilling. He’s not worried about his timing with the new receivers, but he has been spending a little extra time during practice lining everyone up and going over plays. “Probably the biggest concern is making sure everyone’s aligned right and knowing what to do on every play. That’s going to be most crucial for guys like Justin Hunter and Da’Rick Rogers, who haven’t had a whole lot of experience out there in a game situation to keep their cool and do the right things when 100,000 people are watching.”

Ryan

Season

Continued from D1 “I would have been too focused. But this … I wanted to log it all in my memory.” Alas, Longwell didn’t make that field goal — or even attempt it. With just seconds remaining in regulation time, a Favre pass was intercepted by the Saints’ Tracy Porter, and the game went into overtime. New Orleans won the coin toss and got the ball first in the sudden-death session, and the Saints won it a few minutes later on a 40-yard field goal by Garrett Hartley. The unbridled jubilation among the Saints and their long-suffering fans — in a city that was still reeling from the ravages of Hurricane Katrina four years earlier — carried on in stark contrast to the reaction of the stunned Vikings, who, according to Longwell, were feeling the agony of that heartbreaking defeat even as training camp opened for the new season. “Everybody says you’ve gotta get over it,” Longwell said. “But a loss like that, in a game that big … it sticks to you. “The (conference) championship game, one game away from the Super Bowl … it’s just too hard to get there.”

Continued from D1 Fun stuff every week. So entertaining that it’s almost sad to see the preseason end. But true reality begins tonight in New Orleans. It continues through the weekend and on to Monday night in the Meadowlands when the Jets must begin to deliver on their many brash promises. And the reality is that the Jets are probably not nearly as good as Ryan relentlessly hypes them up to be. He sees them winning the Super Bowl. The wise guys in Vegas see five or six other teams with a better chance. “There are darling teams every year that people seem to fall in love with,” said longtime Las Vegas oddsmaker Jimmy Vaccaro. “The Jets are a good football team, but to make them one of favorites to win the Super Bowl is insane.” The same could probably be said about the Minnesota Vikings, who face the unenviable task of opening the season with a rematch against the defending Super Bowl champions. Brett Favre drove oddsmakers so crazy with his waffling that some sports books doubled Minnesota’s odds on winning the Super Bowl when it looked as though he wasn’t going to play. Favre may not make it through tonight’s game, much less the whole season. His ankle is already an issue, and there’s only so much beating a 40-year-old quarterback can take. But the NFL is a league so mired in mediocrity that one player can mean the difference between an 8-8 season and a Super Bowl. That’s why the Vikings begged Favre to come back, and why Ryan finally threw a hissy fit before the cameras to make sure Darrelle Revis was back with the Jets. Yes, the Jets could conceivably win a Super Bowl. The Vikings, too, if Favre can somehow have a second miracle season in a row and restrain himself from throwing into triple coverage. Yes, parity reigns, and if you need proof it’s in the lines offered up in Vegas for the sport Americans love to bet almost as much as they love to watch. “A good third of the teams in the NFL have a legitimate shot at winning the Super Bowl this year,” said Jay Kornegay, who runs the sports book at the Las Vegas Hilton. “We’ve always had parity, but this year it just seems like so many teams have a shot.” While the public embraces the Jets as the new “America’s Team,” the wise guys like a team like the Baltimore Ravens. While the Vikings have people jumping on their bandwagon, the Green Bay Packers have the shortest odds to come out of the NFC Central and win it all. And if you’ve got some money to bet on the Tennessee Titans at 40-1, well, remember that you heard it here first. It’s a big change from just a few years back when the New England Patriots were dominating the NFL and the only real questions were whether they would go undefeated and whom they would play in the Super Bowl. The NFL claims to hate the idea of point spreads on its games but, because they are researched carefully and there is real money on them, they provide the best indicator of what is going on in the league. In the opening weekend, there’s not one game with a spread as large as seven points, and half the games figure to be decided by a field goal or less. “There’s maybe two to four plays in a game that decide who wins or covers a game,” Kornegay said. “That doesn’t leave much room for error.” It’s also good in the sports books, where a close spread means even more millions changing hands. But it may not be so great for Ryan and the Jets. They may have promised more than they can deliver, if the slender 2½-point spread in their opener against the Ravens is any indication. “Hard Knocks” was a lot of fun and good enough to win an Emmy. It’s a lot harder to write a script for winning a Super Bowl.

The window of opportunity Over the course of a 13-year NFL career, Longwell has developed an appreciation for exactly how hard it is to get to the Super Bowl. He made it there in 1998 as a rookie with the Green Bay Packers, kicking a clutch 27-yard field goal to tie the game in the third quarter before John Elway led the Denver Broncos to a 31-24 victory in Super Bowl XXXII. “I go to the Super Bowl in my first year,” Longwell recalled last week from Eden Prairie, Minn., where he lives during the season and home of the Vikings’ training facility. “Brett Favre was our quarterback, Reggie White was a defensive end, Mike Holmgren was the head coach … you think you’re gonna go to the Super Bowl every year.” The Packers, who had won Super Bowl XXXI the season before Longwell arrived in Green Bay, were back in the playoffs in the 1998 season. But in an NFC Wild Card Game against San Francisco, Steve Young threw a 25-yard touchdown pass to Terrell Owens with just three seconds remaining to shock the reigning conference champs. “The window (of opportunity) for that team,” Longwell recounted, “closed just that quick.” Five days later, Holmgren stepped down after a highly successful seven-year run as Green Bay’s head coach. And in Longwell’s remaining seven seasons with the Packers, not once did they get as far as the conference championship game. Longwell joined the Vikings in 2006, but they made the playoffs only once in his first three years in Minnesota, losing in the first round in the 2008 season. Finally, last season, Longwell played again in a conference championship. The guy who had once envisioned being a regular in the Super Bowl had come to understand how truly rare the opportunity to get there presents itself. Since his rookie-year appearance in the Super Bowl, Longwell reflected last week, “it took me 12 years just to get back to an NFC Championship Game.” Which helps to explain why last month, Longwell spent his 36th birthday not at Vikings training camp or with his wife and kids in Minnesota, but in Hattiesburg, Miss.

Mississippi detour According to Longwell, his mid-August flight with two Viking teammates — guard Steve Hutchinson and defensive end Jared Allen — to the Mississippi home of the aforementioned Favre was not a publicity stunt. In fact, Longwell insisted, Favre “had no idea we were coming. We totally surprised him.” The purpose of their visit, of course, was to try to persuade the 40-year-old quarterback and three-time NFL most valuable player to return for one more season with the Vikings. As he had in several previous seasons, Favre was vacillating between continuing to play football or retiring. Longwell had stayed in close touch with his longtime teammate and buddy during the offseason. “I’m Brett’s longest-tenured teammate (10 seasons together, including nine with Green Bay),” Longwell observed. “He and I go way back … so I was talking to him almost daily. As it got closer to (training) camp, I’d text him five or six times a day.” Longwell, Hutchinson and Allen spent a night and most of the following morning with Favre, talking with him, hoping to lure him back “for one last year — just for the guys,” Longwell said. “One of the things Brett said all along,” Longwell noted, “was how much he missed the guys in that locker room.” Finally, Favre caved. “He just looked up,” Longwell recalled, “and said, ‘Let’s do this.’ ”

From Bend to Minneapolis For all of his success in the NFL, Longwell has not changed much since he was place-kicking and punting at Bend High two decades ago. In his first home game with the Lava Bears, in 1989, he helped his team win by booting a 44-yard field goal — quite a feat for a high school kicker, and a scrawny sophomore at that. Yet afterward, he was nowhere to be found by a Bulletin reporter who wanted to know more about this new kid with the big-time leg. As it turned out, he was out of his uniform and headed for home even before the last of his teammates had made it into the locker room. His first interview as a football star would have to wait. “In all honesty, I didn’t think it was that

big of a deal to kick one that far,” Longwell reflected last week. “I had hit them that far and farther in practice, so I guess I didn’t know any better. … Of course, now I get fined if I don’t make myself available after the games to the media.” Through a football career in which he earned all-state honors in high school and a scholarship to the University of California, and now going on 14 seasons as a pro, Longwell has maintained a mostly low profile. And he has done so despite the fact that he has kicked hundreds of field goals — many of them to win games for both the Packers and the Vikings — and currently ranks 16th in NFL history in both career field goals made (322) and career points scored (1,502). He was never in a media spotlight quite so bright as the one that followed his black BMW SUV last month as he drove Favre from a suburban Minneapolis airport to Vikings headquarters nearby. News helicopters followed Longwell and his famous passenger along the route, and dozens of fans and media members greeted them at the Vikings’ Winter Park training facility. One Viking player, tight end Visanthe Shinacoe, tweeted “Circus in Winter Park,” and compared the scene to the infamous O.J. Simpson/Al Cowlings/white Ford Bronco “chase” on Los Angeles freeways in 1994. Even Longwell admitted it was a crazy scene — and hardly something he had hoped to be part of. “But,” he explained, “there’s only a handful of guys in the league you’d do that for. And Brett happens to be one of ’em.”

Still kicking Now in the final season of a five-year deal with the Vikings, Longwell said he is

feeling healthy and is “hitting the ball as well as ever.” Recognized throughout his career as a reliable and accurate kicker, he made 26 of 28 field-goal attempts last season for a career-best 92.9 percent. So, will he be able to play as long as, say, the legendary George Blanda, whose 26 seasons (1948-1975) are the most ever by an NFL player (and who, by the way, ranks just ahead of Longwell on the all-time list for career field goals made with 335)? “I’ve always said I’m gonna go until they kick me out,” Longwell said, adding that he has the support of his wife, Sarah, and their two children, son Reece, 9, and daughter Shaye, 7. “I know I’m closer to the end of my career than the beginning. I’d like to sign one more contract, anyway.” And make it to at least one more Super Bowl. Which is why he went to such great lengths to help bring Favre back to the Vikings. Without Favre, Minnesota was regarded as a playoff contender at best for the 2010 season. With Favre, the Vikings are considered among the favorites to win the NFC title — and to play next February in Super Bowl XLV. But for Longwell, it goes beyond winning. “I can’t tell you how much more fun it is to play football with him (Favre) as the quarterback, and in the locker room,” Longwell said. “When we got Brett back, everybody picked up and kind of sparked. I think the entire state of Minnesota lifted — you could feel the buzz the second he walked in. “Even if he doesn’t take a snap or throw a single touchdown pass,” Longwell added. “This place is much better with Brett around.” Bill Bigelow can be reached at 541-3830359 or at bbigelow@bendbulletin.com.

FISHING REPORT

Good reports of rainbow and lake trout on Cultus

Playoff flair is in the air at Cog Hill

Here is the weekly fishing report for selected areas in and around Central Oregon, provided by fisheries biologists for the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife:

By Teddy Greenstein McClatchy-Tribune News Service

CHICAGO — This year’s FedEx Cup has featured something unexpected — Tiger Woods in a week-to-week struggle to qualify for events. “Now he knows how we feel,” Charley Hoffman said with a chuckle. A staple of the FedEx Cup, though, has been criticism. But in its fourth year, the shouting seems to be muted, with a few rip jobs centering on the fact three of the four 2010 major winners could not compete and that a player such as Martin Laird could rise so dramatically without winning a tournament. “Someone from (No.) 120 can have a great week, win and move to first; that’s kind of a true playoff system, I suppose,” said Luke Donald, who ranks fifth in FedEx Cup points heading into the BMW Championship at Cog Hill in Lemont. “Some people would argue that there isn’t enough relevance to how you played throughout the season. It’s a tough one to get totally right. You’re never going to please everyone.” Kevin Streelman certainly won’t complain. He was 102nd in points, having registered no top-25s from April to July. Then he tied for third at The Barclays, the first of the four FedEx Cup events, and shot up to 18th. “This is what the playoffs are for,” he said. “If the Cubbies have a great year and then lose the first three games of the division series, they’re done. It’s just like the playoffs for us. “They’re designed to reward players who are playing well at right time. The movement makes for momentum swings and a lot of excitement. I feel like the fans have gotten into it.” It does seem that way, even with some evidence to the contrary: Last week’s ratings for the NBC-televised Deutsche Bank Championship, the second playoff event, fell to 2.1 from 2.4 in 2009. The BMW Championship is the third FedEx Cup event, followed in two weeks by the Tour Championship. The top 30 on the points list who emerge from the 70-player BMW field will compete for the top FedEx Cup prize of $10 million. “I think it’s exciting because it’s wide open,” said Steve Stricker, who ranks only behind Matt Kuchar and Hoffman in points. The incentive to leave Chicago in the top five is clear: Those five will go to the Tour Championship knowing that a tournament victory will yield the $10 million bounty. Donald is fifth but trails Stricker by 533 points. Told that to remain in the top five he might need to finish fourth while Stricker only needs to finish 65th, Donald replied: “Well, I don’t know. I’m not a mathematician. I’m just going to go out there and play as well as I can.”

Hoffman Continued from D1 Hoffman’s failures contributed to the Brewers’ poor start, from which they never recovered. Despite the glow of reaching 600 saves, the ultimate teammate wasn’t about to wash his hands of his role in the Brewers’ disappointing plight. “Unfortunately, I was part of the problem this year by not getting my job done early and getting some momentum going,” said Hoffman. “It was more a battle of attrition to get there and have that banner turn over (to No. 600).” Rather than pout or become a distraction, Hoffman buried himself in the process of getting his game back together, eventually earning the right to finish some games. Along the way, he served as mentor to his successor, rookie John Axford, while continuing his leadership role in the bullpen. “He got himself turned around,” said Melvin. “He could have cracked or complained. He

CENTRAL ZONE ANTELOPE FLAT RESERVOIR: Fishing is excellent at Antelope Flat Reservoir. The reservoir has been stocked twice with catchable rainbow trout and the abundant food supply has resulted in a high growth rate. BIG LAVA LAKE: Fishing has slowed down with the warmer weather, 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 is 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.

Steve Fleming, of Mah-Hah Outfitters, gets ready to head back onto the John Day River after a lunch break during a day of bass fishing.

Bass

OREGON

Continued from D1 We drifted along the river, which meandered amid rugged, sun-lit rimrock. Despite world-class fishing and unique scenery, the John Day River Basin remains a remote part of Oregon. “For every day I see somebody, there’s two days I never see anybody,” Fleming said. “It’s a big river, too.” The bass on the John Day concentrate in pools during the low water levels of late summer. Fleming anchored the boat in certain bass hot spots. The river was running at 141 cubic feet per second on this day. The low water is also warmer, which makes the bass more aggressive. Elder and I were going for high numbers of fish, and we caught mostly smaller fish, ranging from 6 to 8 inches in length. Salem’s Darlene Livermore, however, was targeting bigger bass by fly-fishing with top-water poppers (large dry flies) of her own creation from Fleming’s boat. She was not landing as many fish as Doug and I, but her fish were certainly nicer. Fleming recommended that fly anglers on the John Day also try Woolly Buggers of all colors. Fishing from the bank is also an option on the John Day, especially from Service Creek upstream to the town of Monument. A guide for 21 years on the John Day (www.johndayriverfishing.com), Fleming has his days dialed in, from the angling to the eats. He used a Dutch oven, charcoal and a small propane torch on the boat to slowly cook pork tenderloin, potatoes and carrots for lunch. Later, the same oven produced a memorable peach cobbler. After lunch, the sun roasted us as temperatures approached 100 degrees and the bass became even more feisty. I finished the day having caught 72 fish. Elder landed 80, and Livermore caught 33, but with plenty of decent-sized bass. We released all 185 fish. The biggest bass landed on the John Day this year, according to Fleming, measured 23 inches long and weighed 6 pounds, 12 ounces. Early spring — March and April — is the best time to fish for big bass, Fleming said, before the

never said, ‘I need to get to 600.’ He’s a class act. He wanted to earn it. “You lose games all different ways, not just at the end. I don’t point a finger at one particular part of the team. He’s impacted those young guys in the bullpen like Axford, (Zach) Braddock and (Kameron) Loe. If he never saved another game, it would be worth having him on the team.” Immediately after the 2009 season ended, the Brewers resigned Hoffman to a deal for $7.5 million in 2010 with a mutual option for $7 million in 2011. The all-time saves leader was coming off a brilliant season (37 saves, 1.83 ERA in 55 games), so no one second-guessed the move, although Hoffman was about to turn 42. Even now, with knowledge of Hoffman’s early-season woes and how it affected the team’s fortunes, Melvin does not regret that decision. “It was a no-brainer to sign Trevor back for this year,” said Melvin. “He has a presence. When you’ve got a pro like that, it impacts the entire organization.”

Most of the summer steelhead are still below Sherars Falls, but expect numbers of fish to increase above Sherars. 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. FROG LAKE: Frog has been stocked twice and should offer great opportunity for early summer fishing. LAKE BILLY CHINOOK: Kokanee fishing is excellent. METOLIUS RIVER: Trout fishing has been good. Look for a golden stone hatch on the upper river, with pale morning duns and caddis hatches throughout the river. ODELL LAKE: 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. Four-wheel drive is a must to pull your boat back out.

water temperature exceeds 52 degrees. But catch rate per angler averages only two to eight fish in the springtime. Once the water warms, anglers can expect an average of 75 to 100 fish in July and August. Fishing slows down a little bit in late September, but the potential for 100-fish days remains. “It’ll remain really good until the middle of October,” Fleming said. “I’ve had 100-fish days in the middle of October.” Nobody in our group reached the century mark on this day, but 70 to 80 fish is enough to keep busy — and to make it seem as though it’s raining fish.

Infielder Craig Counsell, who fielded the grounder from Aaron Miles for the final out, knows a thing or two about veteran leadership. Yet, he was amazed at how Hoffman handled himself, before and after the historic occasion. “It was inspiring,” said Counsell. “That’s just the way Trevor is. He’s so humble. He has a very good understanding of himself. That’s probably his greatest reason for success. “Everybody knows he struggled. It was a lesson for all of us in accountability and humility. He’s what we’re all striving to be as teammates.” Hoffman didn’t get to bed until 3:30 a.m. and awakened Wednesday at 10:30 a.m., which he joked “was early for me.” It’s always family first for Hoffman, and it was time to celebrate middle son Quinn’s 13th birthday. Hoffman received so many voice mails from well-wishers, his cell phone nearly short-circuited. Two in particular that registered high on the namedropping meter were from Brewers Hall of Famer Robin Yount

and baseball Commissioner Bud Selig. Hoffman was touched to hear that his former club, the San Diego Padres, replayed the final out of his 600th save on the video board at PETCO Park during their game against Los Angeles. Fans in attendance stood and cheered the achievement. “That was a class move by the organization,” said Hoffman. “They’re in the middle of a pennant race.” The baseball cap Hoffman wore in the game was sent to the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown for display. Hoffman said he’ll add the baseball to his collection back home, where he has a wall of baseballs commemorating his saves. The Brewers and Hoffman would have to exercise his 2011 option for him to return for a third season with the Brewers. Both Hoffman and Melvin said they hadn’t thought that far ahead. “I’m going to enjoy this and continue the grind until we get to Oct. 3,” said Hoffman. “We’ll make a decision then.”

HUNTING REPORT

Early goose season opens this Saturday Here is the weekly hunting report for selected areas in and around Central Oregon, provided by fisheries biologists for the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife:

CENTRAL ZONE OPEN: archery buck/elk, early elk, cougar, bear, mourning dove, forest and blue grouse. The Willow Creek Youth Pheasant Hunt occurs this year on Sept. 18-19 between Prineville and Madras. The hunt provides a premier opportunity for kids and their families to enjoy a spectacular fall hunt. Pre-registration is required, is first come first serve, and can be accomplished by calling the Prineville Office of ODFW (541447-5111). PRINEVILLE/OCHOCO WILDLIFE DISTRICT GENERAL: Weather conditions have been variable, with wide temperature extremes, and cold temperatures at higher elevations. Conditions remain dry and the Ochoco National Forest and Prineville BLM should be contacted regarding the latest information on motorized access, camping, and increased fire danger. (BLM 541-416-6700, Ochoco Nat. For. 541-416-6500). ARCHERY BUCK and ELK: Conditions remain dry and noisy. Deer and elk came through the winter in good shape, with bull and buck ratios improved from the 2009 seasons. Hunters should consult with the Prineville BLM and/or Ochoco National Forest for the latest fire restrictions. 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 elk in it. EARLY ANTLERLESS ELK: Hunts are ongoing in the Maury, Ochoco and Grizzly units. These hunts include private agricultural and range lands where permission from the landowner is needed. 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. BEAR: The best opportunities will be on forest lands at higher elevations on the Ochoco National Forest. The better locations will be on the more densely forested north slopes of the Lookout Mountain and Paulina Ranger districts in the Ochoco Unit. Remember check in of harvested bears is mandatory. Please check the synopsis for more information and call ahead of time to make an appointment GAME BIRD: Seasons have arrived with a variety of opportunities available. MOURNING DOVE: Populations remain strong but hunting will hinge on warmer weather continuing. The better dove opportunities will be around private agricultural lands where the birds feed. However, the birds also use roosting and watering areas on the Crooked River National Grasslands and BLM lands. FOREST GROUSE: Opportunities are limited to higher elevation forest lands on the Ochoco National Forest. Hunters should check the more heavily forested portions of the Lookout Mountain and Paulina Ranger districts for these elusive birds. GOOSE: The Early September season opens for waterfowl hunters on Sept. 11 and extends through Sept. 15. Locally, Canadian Goose production was above normal, and if hunters can get access to private agricultural lands, they should enjoy good success.

Spey casting on the Lower Deschutes, Damien Nurre, owner of Deep Canyon Outfitters, fishes at the end of a two-day trip.

Sweet steelhead goodness GARY LEWIS

A

t the surface there is tension, two worlds in suspension. Between the water and the sky there is a skating fly. Out there on the water, the river in shadow, a creation made of foam splashes down. Its deer hair legs tickle the surface, its foam belly rocks. It chugs, pushes water, skates, chugs again. We wanted to get an early start, so I booked a room at the Imperial River Company in Maupin. It was dusk when we checked in and zero-dark-thirty when we left our keys at the desk. Damien Nurre, of Deep Canyon Outfitters, waited at the launch with our rods rigged and ready. We loaded our overnight gear and drifted into the dawn. Less than 20 minutes later, with a 13-foot Spey rod in my hand, I grinned at the sky. It seemed the height of vanity to try to tease a 6-pound ocean-going trout to take a dry fly on the top. Name any other method of taking a steelhead and it is easier, more effective than this. It takes a certain amount of faith to believe there is a fish somewhere within the 60-foot arc of cast and swing. We have to believe there is a pod of fish, two maybe, or 20, holding for an hour or a day on some hydraulic pillow in a boulder-strewn run. In every pod, we like to think there is one, curious enough, aggressive enough, annoyed enough to chase, to smash and grab. “Start where that first boulder breaks the water,” Damien said. “Short at first, then longer. When you are casting the whole head, then take one step down

Nurre shows off a 5-pound steelhead brought to hand on the Lower Deschutes. at a time, about the length of a steelhead, somewhere between 24 and 36 inches. We want to give every fish a chance.” Step, cast, mend, let the fly swing, hold the rod close, lift and lower the tip. Out there on the water, the deer legs and foam chug through the surface chop. Step, cast, swing. The cadence and current conspire to put a fisherman in a steelhead trance. We worked several runs before sunlight hit the water. Now it was time to go deeper, to probe the shadows on the west sides of boulders. I cut off the dry and tied on a wet fly, purple with mylar in the wing. There were precious few shadows left at a quarter to noon when, near the end of my swing, I felt a tug. I let the line pull out between my fingertips and the cork till 24 inches were gone. It is a matter of a moment between the tug and the long upward sweep of the hook-set, but your heart stops and nothing else matters except whether or not the fish is there. With the hook in the corner of its mouth, the fish was broadside when I felt it. Headed toward the main river, it ripped out 40 feet of line then

returned to its boulder in an attempt to saw my leader in two. I kept the rod high and the fish thrashed at the surface then raced into the current again. Twenty-five inches, about five pounds, the fish was fin-clipped. A portion of his mandible had been removed when he was a fingerling at the hatchery, which indicated this was not a Deschutes fish, but a stray from another watershed. We drifted down to our camp site where Matt Shinderman waited with dinner. We would try again to coax a chromer to the top when the shadows hit the water about 6 o’clock. “This is one of my favorite spots,” Nurre said. “Sweet bouldery steelhead goodness.” Cast, mend, swing, chug, step. Downstream, Damien tried to raise a fish without a hook on the fly. After a half-hour, he got a fish to chase and called me down. It wouldn’t take a second time. We worked it with the dry then switched to a No. 8 Coachman. Nothing. In the gloaming, Damien raised another and called my name. My fly chugged through the chop with no response from the curious fish we had the faith to believe was still there. The wind stopped at dark and calm settled in the canyon. Our faith and vanity were renewed in the morning. We stepped in at the top of the run into sweet bouldery goodness. In the tailout, at the end of the swing, a steelhead followed. When it turned away, it pushed a wall of water on the surface. With the same length of line, I threw the fly, chugged it. Again, the fish broke the tension at the surface, but there was no tug, no take, just a bucket-sized swirl and he was gone. There will be another day, in September or October, this year or next. Perhaps I’ll have to present the fly to many more pods of fish before one will take a dry on

top. It’ll take some faith and not a little vanity. Gary Lewis is the host of “High Desert Outdoorsman” and author of “John Nosler — Going Ballistic,” “Black Bear Hunting,” “Hunting Oregon” and other titles. Contact Lewis at www. GaryLewisOutdoors.com.

Trouble. That’s what a grasshopper is in when an errant leap or a gust of wind carries him onto the water. He can kick all he wants but he’s not going anywhere except where the current takes him. Ken Morrish’s hopper interpretation is composed of carved foam and knotted rubber legs which are at once the keys to this pattern’s stability and its “live” surface action. With six touchdown contact points in the surface film, any movement transmits energy to the legs and the surface film. Vulnerability. That’s what a big rainbow understands.

A fisherman near the Fall River Fish Hatchery. Rainy days can make fishing easier in some ways because there are fewer people on the river and fewer shadows to spook the fish.

Catch and relief Wet day at Fall River Fish Hatchery didn’t put a damper on family fishing trip By Betsy Q. Cliff The Bulletin

hen we planned the fishing trip, it was 95 degrees in Bend. When we arrived, on a Saturday a few weeks ago, it was 47. And raining. My hopes were not high when we pulled into the parking lot at the Fall River Fish Hatchery. In the car, we had discussed that I would likely be taking our 11-month-old son back to a warm bookstore or coffee shop in nearby Sunriver while my husband fished with our friends. The baby, we figured, wouldn’t last more than a few minutes in the rain. I worried that neither would I. We were, fortunately, wrong. The entire family had a wonderful time fishing, walking or looking around the river. That’s worth keeping in mind as we head away from the summer, when nice weather is nearly a guarantee, into more meteorologically inconsistent seasons. Fall River Fish Hatchery is a 40-acre site with a sprawling lawn that surrounds fish ponds and several private residences. It grows primarily rainbow

If you’ve ever wondered how many birds migrate through Central Oregon, you can help the North American Migration Count find out. Volunteers are needed to visit assigned locations Sept. 18 and count how many birds they hear and/or observe. The data collected during the daylong count will then be used to help decision-makers determine policies dealing with birds. No birding experience is required to participate in the count; anyone interested in birds is encouraged to attend. Contact: jmoodie@cocc.edu for Deschutes County, cgates326@ gmail.com for all other Oregon counties.

Young musicians sought for benefit trout; the stock came originally from the nearby Crane Prairie Reservoir. See Outing / E6 Vandevert Rd.

Singles live alone in safety thanks to a little deception

High hopes for Plimpton in Fox comedy By Luaine Lee

‘Raising Hope’

McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Dear Abby: “Cautious Bachelorette” (July 16) asked you how she should respond to a workman who asks if she lives alone. Having worked 30 years in a maximum-security prison, I can assure your readers that criminals gravitate toward jobs that provide access to people’s homes as a way of scouting victims, so “Bachelorette’s” concern is well-founded. I advise single women to keep a few articles of men’s clothing, such as a jacket, work boots and other items, visible in their homes. They can be purchased inexpensively at a yard sale or local thrift shop. When a stranger is invited into her home, she can simply pick up one of the articles stating, “Here, let me get John’s coat out of your way.” It does provide a very real deterrent to criminals or others looking for a single woman to victimize. — Ronald A., Washington State Department of Corrections (Retired) Dear Ronald: My readers agreed that setting the stage (with an invisible housemate) is an effective way to give the impression to outsiders that you do not live alone. Read on: Dear Abby: Take a suggestion from a senior citizen who has lived alone for many years — and it applies not only to females, but also to males of any age. Singles should purchase articles of the opposite sex and display them prominently in their homes so they can be seen by any stranger who comes into their homes. That way, the question, “Do you live alone?” doesn’t come up. — Safe Senior Citizen in the South Dear Abby: I would recommend “Cautious Bachelorette” purchase a male beta fish. They take very little time and energy to care for. Name him Fred, or some other masculine name. That way, when she’s asked if she lives alone, she can honestly say, “No. Fred lives with me.” If people inquire deeper, she can say that they have a

DEAR ABBY close one-on-one relationship, and he is very dependable. She could even add that he is a professional swimmer without fibbing. That way she will be able to have a truthful reply for any who ask. — Fred’s Housemate Dear Abby: I live alone and I keep a men’s magazine on my coffee table, a second set of towels in my bathroom and even went to the thrift store and bought a bathrobe that hangs on a hook behind the bathroom door. Also, my table is always set for two, and I always speak in terms of “we” whenever I have a stranger in my home. — Single But Cautious in Plano, Texas Dear Abby: My husband and I were married 24 years, but the last several years were extremely difficult. We have separated, but have not filed the paperwork yet. I would like to begin moving forward with my life. It has been six months and there will be no reconciliation. Recently, someone who knows my circumstances asked me out on a date. Would it be inappropriate for me to go, or to date in general? — Dating Dilemma in New Hampshire Dear Dating Dilemma: If you are truly ready to move forward with your life, file the paperwork first. Even divorces that start amicably can become messy to some degree. Filing the paperwork first will make it less so. To my Muslim readers: It’s time for the breaking of the Ramadan fast. Happy Eid al-Fitr, everyone. May God make yours a blessed feast. Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. — Actress Martha Plimpton may come from a show-biz family, but she never decided to follow in her parents’ footsteps. It just happened, she says. The daughter of actors Keith Carradine and Shelley Plimpton, Martha always had a mind of her own — and still does. “I didn’t really rebel against it. I maybe didn’t get as much enjoyment out of it as I could have when I was younger,” she said. “When you’re younger, you take yourself kind of seriously and you think highly of yourself before you have a right to.” Though she’s been in more than 30 movies (including “The Goonies,” “The Mosquito Coast” and “I’m Not Rappaport”), dozens of TV shows and scores of theater appearances, Plimpton says she was never ambitious. “I’m a very disorganized, undisciplined, unfocused person. When I’m working, obviously I’m very, very focused, but I don’t have this voracious need to be extremely wealthy or famous. ... I’m not an actress because I want to become something. I’m an actress because I want to have fun. It’s what I want to do with my time, and there are things I want to accomplish doing it that bring me pleasures and hopefully people who watch, pleasure. But there’s no other person I want to create, no other person I want to make out of myself.” Because she never surrendered to the Hollywood myth-makers, Plimpton has spent most of her life in New

Martha Plimpton stars in the comedy “Raising Hope,” premiering Sept. 21 on Fox. York, where she was reared by her mom. “My mother is a very intelligent woman, and she was always determined that I should understand the difference between celebrity or show-business and being an actor. She said you can’t choose to be a star; stardom chooses you. But you can choose to be an actor. And she’s right.” Plimpton is a grandmother in Fox’s new comedy, “Raising Hope,” premiering Sept. 21. She doesn’t mind playing a grandmother — she’s always been what she calls a “character actor.” “We usually use that term to describe someone quirky or not typically attractive, older. I think of myself as a character actress because I like to play all different kinds of characters and leading ladies and ingenues are great, but unless you’re working in the theater you’re not getting asked to do much except live in the con-

text of your male counterpart. So character acting is more fun. You just get more to do.” In spite of the ease she feels in her work, she’s considered quitting many times, she says. “Not because I wanted to stop acting, but because I just didn’t want to deal with the people anymore, or whatever, that feeling of powerlessness that you get from dealing with crazy people.

“Show business is full of crazy people, and I’m probably one of them. There have been times I wanted to do something else with my life. And I think that’s normal. When you’ve been working in the same field for as many years as I have, for most of my life, it would be weird if I didn’t want to try something else.” At 39, Plimpton has dated a gallery of men including actors River Phoenix and John Patrick Walker, but never married. “There’s too many other things that I needed or wanted to do,” she said. She and her current boyfriend (not an actor) just returned from a trip to India. “I would like to settle down and get married and have a family, and I probably will very soon. But for me, I guess, other things always seemed more important.”

Fashion maven Kors: What makes him tick? By Anne Bratskeir Newsday

On a broiling day in early August, Michael Kors — tan, blond and five days shy of his 51st birthday — is in a photo session at his 42nd Street offices. Front and center stands a model wearing an adorable knit minidress. “Let me just futz with this,” Kors said, adding a scarf, a knitted cap, a pocketbook, all part of creating spring look-book images for MICHAEL Michael Kors (his less-expensive line). Characteristically, Kors declares that less is more. “I looove it like that,” he exclaimed, removing all the accessories. His staff beams. The scene reflects Kors’ laserlike design vision, both spare and glamorous, serious and full of joy. And it is these somewhat disparate parts that make up the man: He is faaaabulous and still fun, Hollywood but homebody. A sophisticated world traveler and one of the world’s most celebrated designers, he acknowledges that at his essence, he is a born (in Mineola) and bred (in Merrick) New York suburbanite. The Michael Kors brand was born in 1981. Today, his almost billion-dollar global empire includes the luxury sportswear he’s showing Wednesday at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week, which kicks off today. “Laid-back, easy and luxurious,” is how Kors describes the spring collection he’ll show. Legions of fans include the first lady, along with stars such as Angelina Jolie and Mary J. Blige.

The Associated Press file photo

Michael Kors, seen with fellow “Project Runway” judge Nina Garcia during New York Fashion Week in 2008, will show a luxury sportswear line at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week. And for eight seasons he has served as a (slightly mean) judge on “Project Runway,” recently describing a look as “transvestite flamenco dancer at a funeral.” Born Karl Anderson Jr., he took the last name of his mother’s second husband, Bill Kors, who adopted him when he was 5 — and changed his first name around the same time. A former model, Joan Anderson Kors pegged her son early on for acting (he was in a Lucky Charms cereal commercial as a boy). He credits Long Island, home “of Olympic shoppers,” his mom, a lover of tailored sportswear, and his grandmother — an over-thetop glamourpuss — as incubators of that distinctly Kors look.

‘Snooki’ fined $500 for Underwood pleased annoying beachgoers with film performance SEASIDE HEIGHTS, N.J. — Calling her “a Lindsay Lohan wannabe,” a judge has fined “Jersey Shore” star Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi $500 and ordered her to perform community service after she pleaded guilty to dis- Nicole turbing others “Snooki” on a New Jersey Polizzi beach in July. Her lawyer said Wednesday that Polizzi was under the influence of alcohol when she stumbled around the beach in Seaside Heights, using loud language that disturbed other beachgoers. Polizzi apologized to police and anyone else she bothered, claiming her behavior was not scripted as part of the show, even though cameras were rolling.

NEW YORK — Carrie Underwood thought she’d walk away from her first movie experience vowing to stick to her day job. But after a recent screening of “Soul Surfer,” the Carrie Grammy-winUnderwood ning country superstar found she wasn’t as bad as she thought she’d be. Underwood plays a youth counselor in the film, based on the true story of Bethany Hamilton, who lost her arm in a shark attack. But while Underwood gives herself good marks for her work on “Soul Surfer,” the 27-year-old singer says she’s not ready to carry a film just yet. — From wire reports

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Thursday, Sept. 9, 2010: This year, unprecedented creativity emerges from you. What would be the most appropriate manner in which to use this unusual energy? You will want to take a strong stand with finances, and not take unusual risks in this realm. Your professional status could be enhanced with perhaps a seminar or an image and/or resume change. Be open. If you are single, romance always is on the horizon. Will it be with the same person? If you are attached, avoid getting into hassles over little issues. You could have an unusually intense and romantic year. LIBRA encourages you to enjoy life more. The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH You might wake up on the wrong side of the bed, but by late morning, you will have regained your sea legs. Pressure builds around your performance and direction. Fatigue floats through midday. If you cannot take a power nap, opt for a brisk walk. Tonight: Go with another person’s ideas. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH Weigh the pros and cons of a risk. If you keep thinking, you might not be all that happy about the option. A boss or older relative adds some confusion into the mix. Your sense of organization comes out. Tonight: Choose something relaxing. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH You might have a difficult time getting started, but

once you get going, you renew. A partner could be testy and difficult. Don’t go into open combat! Be more creative with your thinking, and bypass others’ resistances. Tonight: Be spontaneous. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH You might have a lot going on this morning. Your instinct might be to play the recluse, despite the impact. Pressure builds on the home front. Deal with issues directly with the party involved. You cannot keep a secret much longer! Tonight: Head home. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Be aware of the costs of doing something differently. You might change your mind, as a mini-revolution rises around you. A stern approach might be necessary. Others inspire a change of pace and perhaps a more cerebral approach. Tonight: Hang with others. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH After recent events, wind down and look at the costs of behaving in a certain manner. You could be very tired and drawn from a financial problem. Get past rigid thinking, and you’ll find an answer. Tonight: Stop and meet a friend. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH You could rain on your own parade of you’re not careful. You are hardest on yourself. Turmoil appears where you least want it. Let it go rather than worry. It might transform itself. Tonight: Get into the weekend spirit early. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH Take a backseat, knowing other people can handle any problem that might turn up. Avoid

spending too much time alone, as you could become depressed. You need the company of a trusted friend. Tonight: Get some extra R and R. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHHH Emphasize the positives of a friendship. This person could be older or a friend of many, many years. Sometimes you might be annoyed with the innate demands of this friendship, but it is worth it. Tap into your sixth sense if you think someone isn’t telling you the full story. Tonight: Where you want to be, with the person you want to be with. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH Take a stand with a boss who could be tough, rigid and somehow limiting. Be ready for a strong discussion. Though you might be irritated, you gain an understanding of why this person has made the choices that he or she has made. Tonight: Working to the wee hours. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH Sometimes you limit your perspective and view without intending to. What could be a near argument might open up new ideas and allow you to gain a better perspective. Remember to ask others to play devil’s advocate sometimes. Tonight: The world can be your oyster, if you want. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Pace yourself and understand what is happening behind the scenes. How you handle a difficult meeting or associate might be more important than you realize. Your instincts guide you within an agreement and a partnership. Tonight: Follow a partner’s lead. © 2010 by King Features Syndicate

Outing C o n t inued from E1 “It’s about as native a fish for this area as we have available,” said Phil McKee, manager of the hatchery. For years, he said, hatchery staff trapped fish in Crane Prairie, though now they breed them from the fish already living at the hatchery. These fish are stocked in the Fall River, though McKee said some of the fish in the river are native. The river is open to fly-fishing only, and you can keep two fish per day; both must be 8 inches or longer, and only one can be larger than 20 inches. As with other Oregon rivers, you must have a license to fish. Licenses can be purchased at many fishing or sporting goods stores. The Fall River emerges from the ground as a full-size spring and runs about eight miles before emptying into the Deschutes River. Along most of the shore, it’s beautiful. The dry coniferous forest surrounding the river gives way to meadow and wildflower-lined banks while the river plays over small falls and around bends. The water is incredibly clear. Even from the shore, it was easy to spot fish in the river. Downstream from the hatchery, private ownership of the land restricts access. But, there’s plenty of good fishing to be had near the hatchery and upstream. We spent our afternoon within easy walking distance of the hatchery. The river is wadable, though that certainly is not necessary as plenty of good water can be reached from the banks. In fact, as we found, you don’t even need to leave the lawn on the fishery grounds to land a fish. (Full disclosure: I did not actually fish the river. I agreed to watch the baby through the afternoon, instead. Fortunately the river is small enough and the trail is good enough that we could get close to the action.) The rain continued on and off through the afternoon, and we found there are a few advantages to fishing in foul weather. First,

The Fall River hatchery can get crowded on summer weekends, McKee said, with both visitors and anglers. We saw a few people there, but most came and left quickly, on to drier and warmer places. Second, fish can sometimes be more active in foul weather. “They are very wary when the sun’s brilliant,” McKee said. “When it’s windy or overcast, they have a lot more cover.” And last, it can be easier to sneak around the river. There’s no shadow on the river to betray the fisherman’s presence. Late in the afternoon, as the rain abated, the fish began to feed like crazy. From the shore, I watched one particular rainbow as it came up over and over again. It waited

patiently near the bottom of the river, letting mayfly after mayfly float over its head. Then, at some moment, the fish came up for a strike, causing a small ripple and retreating quickly back to the bottom of the river. My husband and friends caught several rainbows, most about 10 inches or so in length, though we did not keep any of them. For me, especially once the rain stopped, entertaining the baby was easy. There was plenty of lawn for him to play on, an easy trail to walk and, best of all, the car was in easy reach when we needed a snack or another toy. At the beginning of the week, I had pictured lounging in the sun next to the stream. Instead, it was a blow-on-your-hands, wear-allyour-layers, turn-the-car-heaton-full-blast kind of trip.

Flex plans to have new rules in 2011

A universal flu vaccine?

Health law will require prescriptions for over-the-counter medications By Markian Hawryluk The Bulletin

Flu vaccine

New research makes headway on a multiyear dose against the virus By Betsy Q. Cliff • The Bulletin

Fighting the flu

T

he annual ritual begins about this time every year. Flu shot clinics pop up in nearly every conceivable location, from grocery stores to health departments to workplaces. Millions of Americans line up to get their dose of that year’s shot. As public health officials constantly remind us, it’s important to get vaccinated every year to avoid getting sick. But what if we didn’t need to do that? What if we could get one shot that granted immunity from the flu for years and years, the way we do for some other common infections? Scientists are surprisingly close to figuring out how to do just that. In experiments that have been going on without much public notice at the National Institutes of Health, scientists have figured out how to create a vaccine that provokes the immune system of animals to fight flu in a way that could create immunity for years. Now, they’re testing it in humans and, if all goes well, it may be just a few years before large-scale human trials begin. While it’s no sure thing as yet, science is getting closer to making the yearly flu shot obsolete. It would be a welcome change, said Dr. Paul Cieslak, manager of Oregon’s acute and communicable disease program. “From a public health point of view, that would be a marvelous thing.” See Flu vaccine / F4

Each year’s flu vaccine contains three flu strains that can change from year to year. Flu virus strains in vaccine Antibody

Get a hefty workout and gain friendships

After vaccination, your body produces infection-fighting antibodies against the three flu strains in the vaccine. The antibodies produced must fit exactly with the spikes of protein called antigens on the virus for it to be effective. If you are exposed to any of the three flu strains during the flu season, the antibodies will latch onto the antigens, preventing the flu virus from attaching to healthy cells and infecting them.

Virus gene

By Jeff Seidel

However, influenza virus genes are prone to mutations. If a gene changes, so can the part of the virus it encodes. That can cause the tip of the antigens to change shape.

What’s in store for this year?

If the tip of the antigen changes shape, antibodies that normally would match up to it no longer can, allowing the newly mutated virus to infect the body’s cells. Mutated gene Mutated antigen

New vaccines now in development would create antibodies that attach lower on the antigens than current vaccines. These would fit more viruses and allow protection for a number of years.

It remains to be seen whether last year’s federal health reform bill will drastically improve the health care system. But one of its early provisions could make a simple purchase like a bottle of aspirin much more of a headache. Starting Jan. 1, consumers will be required to have a doctor’s prescription if they want to use money set aside in tax-free M O N E Y flexible spending accounts to buy any over-the-counter medications. A flexible spending account, or FSA, allows an individual to set aside money for health care costs on a pretax basis. Under such plans, set up by employers, the funds are withdrawn from the employee’s paycheck. A plan administrator then reimburses the employee for eligible spending until the set-aside funds are used up. Any unused funds are forfeited at year’s end, helping to cover the cost of administering the FSA plan. Over-the-counter medications, including pain relievers such as Tylenol or Advil, or allergy medications such as Claritin or Zyrtec, had been automatically eligible for flex spending reimbursement. Now they’ll shift to a category known as dual-use, which includes items that could be paid for with FSA dollars under the right conditions. See Flex plans / F5

It’s very hard to predict how bad this flu season will be now, but health experts will say it’s not likely to be another 2009. “We were in a pandemic situation,” said Heather Kaisner, immunization program coordinator for Deschutes County. The H1N1 flu strain that emerged in 2009 will likely still be out there this year and is included in this year’s flu vaccine. But health officials do not expect it to cause major problems. “So many people either got that strain (and got sick) or got vaccine,” said Kaisner. “They will be protected this year.” Everyone older than 6 months should get a vaccination this year, according to new federal recommendations. The nasal spray, however, is recommended only for people older than age 2. Children younger than 5, pregnant women, people older than 65 and people with some chronic medical conditions are at higher risk of complications from flu. These people are advised to be especially vigilant about getting vaccinated. — Betsy Q. Cliff, The Bulletin

HCG diet has ardent backers, but health care pros dismiss it

Today’s nutrition quiz takes on the chips aisle of your supermarket, where new formulations promise health benefits over regular potato and tortilla chips. But promises on the front of a bag don’t always mean good things inside. Are you fooled? Take this quiz and find out. Which of the following has 1. the most sodium per 1 ounce serving?

It’s a familiar story. She tried over and over to lose weight. Sometimes she succeeded, but it always came back. And it seemed so unfair because she didn’t want to get as skinny as a supermodel, just a healthy weight, 145 or 150 pounds. Then Patti Dingler found the HCG Diet. She eats only 500 calories a day, and she and her husband have bumped up their walking regimen to five miles daily near their home in Wise County, Texas. Definitely a recipe for weight loss. She shed 25 pounds in her first 30 days on the diet. And after just the first week, “I felt 10 years younger,” says Patti, 49, a contract specialist in the Federal Aviation Administration’s Fort Worth, Texas, office. “I had energy, and I breathed easier.” Most diet regimens allow about 1,200 calories a day for the average woman. Patti’s getting far less. So how is she staving off hunger and fatigue? Once or twice a day, she puts several drops of a nearly flavorless liquid under her tongue. She says it keeps her feeling good, mostly, although about one day in seven she is more tired than normal. The important ingredient in those drops is a nonprescription, homeopathic form of HCG, or human chorionic gonadotropin. Naturally occurring HCG is a hormone that is produced in quantity during pregnancy. It’s made by cells that form the placenta, which nourishes a fertilized egg after it attaches to the wall of the uterus. Patti’s form of HCG is the homeopathic, or “look-alike” version. Some people following the HCG diet use the actual hormone, prescribed by a doctor and injected with a syringe every day. Either way, plenty of people are willing to call HCG a godsend. HCG for weight loss isn’t new; it was first popularized in the 1950s by British physician Albert Simeons and enjoyed a resurgence in the ’70s. But lately it has made a huge comeback. It’s on the Internet, billboards, TV and fliers you find on the windshield after you grab a pizza. Patti’s husband, Wes Dingler, is a believer. After some hesitation, he went on the diet, too. “It was time for drastic measures,” says Wes, a 45-year-old avionics manager. His doctor warned him that he was in danger of developing adult-onset diabetes. “I was on double cholesterol meds. The doctor said that on my next visit, if my blood sugar’s still high, I’ll have to go on insulin.” Wes says a pound or a pound and a half per week for weight loss is a good goal. His wife says he’s “into instant gratification,” and that’s one of the reasons he and so many people love the HCG diet. “I’m dropping about a pound a day, 33 pounds already,” Wes says.

The main ingredient of the HCG diet is a homeopathic form of the hormone human chorionic gonadotropin, which occurs naturally during pregnancy. Dieters can also eat, from top left, oranges, apples, celery, tomatoes, shrimp and coffee. to get down to 175 pounds on his 5-foot-11 frame. The diet lays out a maintenance plan for the six weeks after discontinuing HCG. The do’s and don’ts are similar to the 500calorie diet: no processed foods, no starches or sugars, about 1,500 calories daily consisting mainly of fruit, vegetables, fish and chicken. Wes and Patti like the idea that they’ll keep eating healthy after they stop taking HCG. In fact, they like everything about the HCG diet. Mainstream medicine has an entirely different view. Most doctors’ and dietitians’ views can be summed up in three terms: placebo, peril and put-it-back-on. “I don’t believe it to be efficacious. Either shots or drops, it’s a placebo,” says Dr. Craig Primack, a bariatric (weight-loss) doctor inn Phoenix and a spokesman for the American Society of Bariatric Physicians. “Not many doctors commonly known as weight-loss doctors are using this.” The 500-calorie diet doesn’t provide enough carbs or protein and will send the body into a state called ketosis. Ketosis is a natural appetite suppressant, Primack says, so he believes that is what banishes hunger, rather than HCG. In ketosis, the body burns stored fat, but if it’s extreme, it can lead to problems. The blood pH can change, making blood too acidic and essentially corrosive to internal organs. “The short-term ketosis problem is bad breath,” says Keri Gans, registered dietitian and spokesperson for the American Dietetic Association. “Over an extended period, kidney stones and gallstones are common side effects, and also fatigue.” Injectable HCG is FDA-approved for some uses, but not for weight loss. It was first used in the 1950s to boost testosterone production in

boys who should be entering puberty but weren’t, says Primack. It’s also sometimes used to treat infertility and some cancers in men. Doctors can legally prescribe a substance such as HCG for “off-label” use, such as weight loss, Primack says. Dr. Kenneth J. Heinrich, an ASBP spokesman and medical director of Physicians for Weight Loss in Chicago, says he knows of no obstetrician-gynecologists who recommend the homeopathic drops for “label” use. There’s also controversy about just how dangerous off-label HCG injections can be, Heinrich says. “There are life-threatening effects, some say, but there are no studies documenting the frequency of adverse effects. The more common are headaches and excessive acne and hair growth.” HCG also can cause prostate problems in men, and, in women, it may bring on ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, or excessive ovulation, he says. Teenagers shouldn’t use a very low-calorie diet at all unless they’ve reached their full growth, Heinrich says. HCG dieters are setting themselves up for ultimate failure, Gans and Primack say. “It’s not a long-term solution to weight loss,” says Gans. “There are not enough carbohydrates — that’s the major fuel for our bodies.” Getting to the right weight is about eating healthy, she says — “eating plenty of fruits, vegetables and ‘good carbs’ like whole grains, oats, barley, quinoa, buckwheat, beans, other legumes — high-fiber carbs.” Primack agrees: “We live in a carb society. As soon as they’re off the diet, most start gaining again.” Gans recommends losing much more slowly, 1 to 2 pounds a week. “The key is to not gain it back and wait for the next diet fad to come along.”

HCG diet in a nutshell Lose 40 pounds in 40 days? It seems too good to be true, but it’s what the HCG diet ads promise.

Confusion over when to screen for cholesterol

THE BARE BONES OF WHAT IT ENTAILS:

By Jessie Schiewe

• 500 calories a day • No heavy exercise • Daily HCG in one of two forms: nonprescription under-the-tongue drops or prescription injections

Signs of heart disease — generally thought to be a disease of middle age — can be seen even in children, cardiologists now know. But risk factors in children and young adults run the risk of being undetected and untreated, largely because of confusion as to who among the young should get screened, and when. One of the most efficient ways to screen for heart-disease risk is via tests for levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL, or “bad”) cholesterol. And yet often that screen doesn’t get done. In a study published in the July-August issue of the Annals of Family Medicine, Dr. Elena Kuklina and colleagues from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention examined data from the 1999-2006 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, a national survey that includes interviews and physical examinations, to see how frequently young adults were getting screened for LDL cholesterol. Of the 2,587 young adults in the study — men 20 to 35 years old and women 20 to 45 — fewer than 50 percent had been screened. Yet 59 percent of them had heart disease or related conditions such as diabetes or at least one risk factor for heart disease (such as obesity, high blood pressure, smoking or a family history of heart disease before age 50). The study also reported that

WHAT YOU EAT Breakfast • As much coffee or tea as you want • Stevia (the only sweetener allowed) • One tablespoon of milk per day Lunch • 100 grams (about 3.5 ounces) of veal, beef, boneless chicken breast, fresh white fish, lobster, crab or shrimp. Trim off all fat before cooking and weigh the meat raw. It must be prepared without additional fat. • About 2 cups of one of the following: spinach, chard, chicory, beet-greens, green salad, tomatoes, celery, fennel, onions, red radishes, cucumbers, asparagus or cabbage. It’s OK to eat more than 2 cups. • One breadstick or one piece of Melba toast • One apple or orange, or a handful of strawberries or half a grapefruit Dinner • Choose again from the same four groups as lunch.

Los Angeles Times

65 percent of young adults with heart disease or related conditions had unhealthily high LDL cholesterol levels, as did 26 percent of those with two or more risk factors, 12 percent with one risk factor and 7 percent with no risk factors. It turns out that doctors themselves don’t know what to do about the screening issue because two different guidelines exist for screening adults for cholesterol. One set of guidelines, supported by the American Heart Association and the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute, is from the National Cholesterol Education Program. It recommends screening young adults, regardless of risk level, every five years once they turn 20. Another set of guidelines, by the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force, recommends screening all men 35 and older and all women 45 and older. It recommends earlier screening only if a person already has heart disease or at least one risk factor. The American Academy of Pediatrics issued broader guidelines in 2008 that recommend — in addition to screening kids with a family history of heart disease — screening children whose family history isn’t known or who have other heart disease risk factors such as obesity, high blood pressure or diabetes. And the government’s National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute is currently preparing new guidelines.

Heart benefits of fish oil vary by group By Amina Khan Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — Fish oil has long been touted as one of nature’s heart-helping natural compounds, but is it worth popping that jellied pill as part of your nutrition regime? Might depend on who you are. A Dutch study found that people who had already suffered heart attacks did not significantly reduce their risk of heart attack, stroke, heart failure and other cardiovascular events by eating about 400 mg of fish fatty acids per day. But the supplement did

help those patients who had diabetes in addition to a past heart attack. The findings, published in the New England Journal of Medicine, also found that women who consumed alpha-linolenic acid (found in soybean and linseed oil, among others) showed fewer major cardiovascular events. Many studies that have described benefits from fish oil have given participants unreasonably high doses, sometimes 1 to 2 grams of marine fatty acids, said Daan Kromhout, the study’s lead author, in a phone interview.

(He’s a nutritional epidemiologist at Wageningen University in the Netherlands.) That’s a lot, he added. His team decided to test a dose of 400 milligrams of fish oil — the equivalent of two fatty fish meals a day. In any case, Kromhout added, don’t stop eating fish. It’s probably still good for prevention purposes. “Fish are a rich source of vitamin D, and more evidence is coming out that vitamin D could also be of benefit in relation to cardiovascular disease,” Kromhout said. “There are many more good things in fish than in fish oil capsules.”

Flu vaccine Continued from F1

Next week A personal tragedy leads one local woman into ovarian cancer advocacy.

U.S. flu deaths per flu season Latest data available

Currently, the vaccines need to be given every year because the virus is able to constantly shift. The flu virus looks like a ball with lots of spikes coming out of it. These spikes, made of protein, are called antigens and coat the outside of the main body of the virus. To infect one of our cells, these antigens latch on to the outside of the cell, the way a burr attaches to your clothing after a hike. Once they attach, they can get inside the cell. Inside, the virus replicates, creating thousands of copies of itself. These copies leave the cell, infecting more cells and creating millions more copies, which makes you sick. To fight this infection, the immune system responds by creating antibodies. Antibodies attach to the antigen spikes on the virus. With the antibodies clinging on, the virus can’t stick to a cell and infect it. This is where the virus gets crafty. The antibodies need to fit exactly around the tip of the spike to attach to it. A slight change in the shape of the tip and the antibody is worthless. So, that’s just what the virus does. “It really becomes a bit of a chess game between the virus and us,” said Dr. Gary Nabel, director of the Vaccine Research Center at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, who is working on new vaccines. “We make a move, the virus makes a move.” The tip shape, Nabel said, mutates easily. And while the antibodies to one type of flu virus can stick around for years, they are not useful to fight the virus that has changed shape. A variation on this phenomenon explains why seniors were less hard hit by last year’s H1N1 flu pandemic than younger people. Though some seniors did get sick, as

a group, seniors weathered the pandemic fairly well. “There’s evidence that people born before 1950 had more immunity to H1N1,” said David Topham, assistant professor of microbiology and immunology at the University of Rochester. Topham said that H1N1 looked like flu viruses that circulated in the United States in the 1930s. That means that in older people, antibodies made decades ago fit with the antigens of the H1N1 virus and were able to neutralize the virus. Younger people, even those who had been exposed to other strains of flu, did not have antibodies that were able to recognize and fight the new H1N1 virus.

Today’s vaccines The flu vaccine works by trying to artificially induce the body to make antibodies that fit and thus neutralize current flu virus strains. We need it every year because antibodies made via vaccine one year will not necessarily protect against the strains the next year. Each year, health officials from global and national health organizations make an educated guess on the exact strains of flu virus that will be prevalent during the next flu season. By convention, they include three strains. The hope is that the types of flu virus in the vaccine will closely match the type that will be making people sick. Some years that works better than others. That leads to another problem with our current vaccines: They sometimes don’t work. “Sometimes we find out that the circulating strains are a little

bit unanticipated,” said Dr. Richard Fawcett, an infectious disease specialist in Redmond. “Sometimes people do get vaccinated and come down with the seasonal strain,” though he said occurrences are relatively rare. Still, they can be serious. A 2001 study found that when the vaccine was a better match to the actual virus, fewer elderly people were hospitalized or died of flu-related illnesses. The study, which included more than 120,000 people ages 65 and older, found that in a year when the vaccine was a good match, about 1,300 people in the study died; in the next year when it was not a good match, nearly 1,800 people died.

A universal vaccine Nabel is working on a vaccine that would eliminate the guesswork that goes into vaccine production and the need for yearly vaccinations. His vaccine would work against many, perhaps most, strains of flu. The idea is to induce the immune system to create antibodies

that recognize and attach to parts of the virus that rarely change. Rather than fitting over the top of the antigen spikes on the outside of the flu virus, the new vaccine would cause the body to create antibodies that fit an area near the base of the spikes, where it attaches to the main body of the virus. Because the base of the spikes do not mutate from year to year, a vaccine that caused the body to recognize and fight the virus this way would not need to be given every year. And, because the bases are the same across many strains of flu, it could prevent years in which the vaccine is ineffective. The challenge is that this is not the way the body has ever fought off flu. “We are trying to expose regions that aren’t normally seen by the immune system,” said Nabel, “and to essentially respond to the virus in ways that are not natural.” Nabel and his team recently made a major breakthrough, which they published in the journal Science. He vaccinated animals — mice, ferrets and monkeys — with the new vaccine and induced their immune systems to produce antibodies that could attach to the base of the protein spikes. “That has never been shown before,” Nabel said. Now, he said, they’re beginning studies on humans. “By the end of the year, we should have some data on the immune responses we have been able to elicit.” Inexplicably, few people, even within the field, know about these developments. Cieslak, for example, said he had not heard of any promising efforts to create a universal flu vaccine. Nabel said that if all goes well, they would expect to do largescale clinical trials, often called Phase 3 trials, within five years. Of course, he said, it’s impossible to know whether that timetable will hold and whether the vaccine will continue to do well in studies. In any case, he said, he thinks that this area will continue to grow. “This is the beginning of the effort” to create vaccines that last longer than a year. “So we’re going to see a lot of activity in this area in coming years.”

Spending time in wild may help ease illnesses How to deal with hiccups, nosebleeds, shivers By Michio Watanabe The Yomiuri Shimbun

TOKYO — Have you ever heard of forest therapy? You may recall feeling refreshed or relaxed after walking through a forest — that is the effect of so-called forest bathing. Forest therapy involves using the revitalizing effects of time spent in nature to treat physical and psychological ailments. Professor Iwao Uehara, 45, of Tokyo University of Agriculture, in April established the Society of Forest Amenity and Human Health Promotion in Japan to promote the idea of forest therapy. “OK. Shall we cut down this hinoki cypress tree?” Uehara’s voice echoed through a hinoki forest in Kosugemura, Yamanashi Prefecture. The manmade forest had grown overly dense — it had not been thinned since the trees were planted more than 30 years ago. The trees were very thin and looked weak. The occasion was a “Minna no Mori” (Everybody’s forest) activity held on July 31. Uehara organizes the activities to give people struggling with physical and psychological ailments a chance to improve their health by caring for uncontrolled forests like this one or by simply strolling through forests. In addition to this writer and Uehara, six other people took part in the event, among them a company employee and a university student from the Tokyo metropolitan area. Uehara drew the blade of a saw across the tree he had pointed out, making a cut across its narrow trunk. With two members of the group lending a hand, the tree was soon enough cut down. A small window of sunlight opened in the green canopy above us, bringing smiles to visitors’ faces. “The more we take care of the forest, the more changes we can see in it. I feel good when I see

the clear transformation,” said Chutoku Narushima, 66, from Tokyo. The group moved to a different area, with broad-leaved trees like Japanese oaks, for a session of “in-forest self-counseling.” Each person found a tree they liked, and sat at the root for about 30 minutes to quietly reflect. Last year, Uehara asked 15 people who had taken part in Minna no Mori events in the hinoki forest to fill out a questionnaire about the emotional changes they had noticed. Participants reported feeling a greater sense of exhilaration, and an overall reduction in feelings of tension, fatigue and depression. Phytoncides — chemicals emitted by trees to repel harmful insects — may be one reason why people feel better after spending time surrounded by nature. Studies have found that phytoncides’ effect on humans include lowering blood pressure and promoting psychological and physical relaxation. “Phytoncides aren’t the only factor,” Uehara said. “Green scenery, fresh air, the songs of birds and the sounds of the wind, conversations with other people as we work — these factors combine to have good effects on us.” After studying silviculture at Tokyo University of Agriculture, Uehara became a teacher at an agricultural high school in Nagano Prefecture, where on occasion he found himself counseling truant students. He was intrigued to find that the most productive of these conversations tended to take place in an experimental forest on the school grounds. This realization motivated him to pursue the idea of forest therapy. He became a certified counselor with the Japanese Association of Counseling Science, and then founded the Society of Forest Amenity and Human Health Promotion in Japan.

By Nancy Churnin The Dallas Morning News

Hiccups, nosebleeds and the occasional twitch or shiver — they’re annoying, embarrassing, all too common and rarely serious enough to warrant a trip to the doctor. Every now and then, they can indicate something serious, though. How can you tell the difference? Before you go to the doctor, what home remedies are safe to try? For advice we consulted several experts on staff at Baylor Regional Medical Center at Plano, Texas.

Hiccups What they are: Involuntary, intermittent, spasmodic contractions of the diaphragm, followed by a sudden closure of the epiglottis (the cartilage protecting the vocal cords), which makes the hiccup sound. Types: Doctors define hiccups by how long they last. Transient hiccups last for up to 48 hours; persistent hiccups may last 48 hours to 30 days; intractable hiccups may last for more than two months. Common causes: Anything that irritates the stomach and esophagus, including overeating or eating too quickly, carbonated beverages, sudden excitement, emotional stress, laughter, hot and spicy foods or liquids, and noxious fumes. When should you call the doctor? When you have persistent or intractable hiccups, which can lead to malnutrition, weight loss, fatigue, dehydration and insomnia. Home cures: Largely anecdotal, these cures usually involve altering your breathing patterns by breathing into a bag; holding your breath; drinking a glass of water; swallowing a teaspoon of sugar, peanut butter or vinegar; drinking from the opposite side of a

glass; fright; and the Valsalva maneuver (closing your mouth, pinching your nose and forcibly exhaling). Medical cures: Muscle relaxants, anti-convulsants, antispasmodics, antipsychotics, gastrointestinal stimulants, antidepressants and massage of the carotid sinus in the neck.

for home use. Oxymetazoline is not advised for children younger than 6 unless a doctor recommends it; children 6 to 12 should use it only under adult supervision. You should consult with your doctor before using QuikClot as well.

Nosebleeds

What they are: Muscle twitching is caused by a minor muscle contraction or uncontrollable twitching of a muscle group served by a single motor nerve fiber; shivering is a diffuse body movement manifested by an alteration of muscle tone. What causes them: The most common cause of eye twitching can be dry eye, which can come from staring at a computer screen all day. Twitches in the calf and fingers are common, too, and can be caused by repetitive, strenuous actions such as the kinds used in

What they are: Loss of blood from the tissue lining the nose. Common cause: Dryness of the nose that leads to cracking of the mucous membranes. The dryness can be caused by temperature changes or low humidity. Air conditioning and heated environments also can dry the nose. Additional causes: Aside from direct injury, colds, blowing the nose, allergies, sinusitis, upper respiratory infection, chemical irritants or overuse of decongestant nasal sprays. People on blood thinners such as aspirin also can be more prone to nosebleeds. When should you call the doctor? When you have severe blood loss, nasal obstruction, pain, a nosebleed that doesn’t stop after 20 minutes or if the nosebleed occurs after an injury to the head. Repeated nosebleeds may be a symptom of high blood pressure, a bleeding disorder or a tumor of the nose. Home cures: Elevate your head, apply cold compresses or ice across the bridge of your nose and pinch the soft portion of your nose between your thumb and finger for 10 minutes. Lean forward to avoid swallowing the blood and breathe through the mouth. Medical cures: Cauterizing or closing the blood vessels using heat, electric current or silver nitrate sticks. Some doctors recommend oxymetazoline (Afrin) nasal spray or QuikClot

keyboarding or certain sports. Shivering is most commonly the result of the body’s defense mechanism to prevent heat loss, but it also can occur if you’re excited or afraid. Shivering protects your body by tightening the arteries supplying the muscles, resulting in the muscles tightening and loosening quickly to increase metabolism. When should you call the doctor? When you have long-term or persistent muscle twitches or shivering. Home cures: Stretching, massaging and resting the muscles that are twitching. Stay warm if you’re shivering. Medical cures: For eye twitches, a shot of Botox can calm the eye muscle; for shivering, medical remedies will only help if blood tests determine a medical condition, such as low metabolism, medication or infection, as the cause.

And no prescriptions would be required for over-the-counter products if consumers simply purchase them with after-tax dollars. But the change, which hasn’t been widely publicized, could catch consumers off guard. “This restriction will hurt millions of consumers who rely on their FSAs to manage their out-of-pocket health care costs and pay for necessary over-the-counter therapies,” said Joe Jackson, CEO of WageWorks, a San Mateo, Calif.-based benefits company. “If Congress is intent on putting this provision into effect, they should at least push back the deadline so that consumers — and especially retailers — are ready for the transition.”

Be skeptical of health care credit cards By Michelle Andrews Special to The Washington Post

These days, you may leave your dentist’s office with more than a toothbrush and dental floss in your bag. Thousands of dentists are offering patients health-care credit cards to cover the work that needs to be done, with seemingly hard-to-resist repayment terms. If you need care and don’t have insurance to cover it or cash in hand, it’s tempting to sign up. But beware: Many of the card companies and some of the practitioners who offer them are under scrutiny for deceptive and sometimes fraudulent practices. Think hard and read the fine print before you sign on the dotted line. New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo recently announced an investigation into the health-care lending industry. The probe grew out of hundreds of complaints received by his office from people who had used the cards for dental work and for elective medical treatments often not covered by insurance, such as cosmetic surgery, chiropractic treatments, Lasik eye surgery and hearing procedures. New York is not alone in looking at the practice. Last year Minnesota Attorney General Lori Swanson sued two chiropractic clinics, charging that, among other things, they signed patients up for credit cards without their knowledge and charged them thousands of dollars for services not yet provided. Those suits are ongoing, according to a spokesman for her office. According to investigators and patient advocates who have worked with consumers to resolve problems, patients frequently aren’t even aware they’re applying for a credit card; many think they’re providing financial information to work out an extended payment agreement with their doctor or dentist. Once they get the card, more unpleasant surprises can be ahead. Many cards promise interestfree borrowing as long as consumers pay off the amount owed within a specified time, say six months or a year. But consumers who don’t pay off their debt within that time frame often get hit with interest charges exceeding 25 percent on the entire amount, back to the original date they purchased the services. Other consumers have discovered they’ve been charged thousands of dollars for work that hadn’t yet been done. New credit card regulations that recently became effective limit the size of late fees and restrict interest rate increases on balances. But the regulations continue to permit “teaser” or promotional rates, and they don’t address the issue of charging consumers for services before they’re provided, says Gail Hillebrand, a senior attorney at Consumers Union.

How to e-mail your doctor

Flex plans

Some consumers are already facing decisions on FSA allocations for next year, particularly those, such as teachers, whose plan year starts earlier than Jan. 1. The health reform bill also implements a $2,500 cap on FSA contributions starting in 2013. Now, companies decide how much money they allow employees to put into their accounts, but most companies cap an individual’s contribution at $5,000. The provisions were included in health reform as a way to lower the costs of the total package. The Joint Committee on Taxation estimated the changes would increase federal tax revenue by $18 billion over 10 years, as fewer dollars would be set aside in the taxexempt accounts. But critics argue the changes may increase health care spending if patients schedule visits with their doctors just to get requisite prescriptions. “We’re likely to see doctor’s offices overwhelmed with patients seeking prescriptions to use their spending accounts for Claritin, Zyrtec and other OTC items,” said Jody Dietel, president and chair of the Special Interest Group for Inventory Information Approval System Standard (SIGIS), which maintains an electronic list of FSA eligible products used by most retailers in the country. SIGIS officials urged Treasury officials to establish a grace period during which consumers and retailers would not be penalized if FSA transactions went through under the old rules. The first guidance from the IRS issued on Monday, however, made no mention of a transitional period. Retailers are still unsure of how closely the prescription requirement would follow that for prescription drugs. Doctors must hand the consumer a script written off a prescription pad or submit a prescription to a pharmacy electronically. A doctor’s letter to the plan administrator will not be sufficient. Consumers can then send their receipts along with their prescriptions to their plan administrators for reimbursement. Or if the pharmacy processes the transaction as a standard prescription and dispenses the medication, consumers can submit a receipt that shows the prescription number. But the guidance left other questions unanswered. Will physician prescriptions be required to specify a number of pills with the prescription, or can consumers buy Costcosized containers of pain relievers? And if pharmacies must process prescriptions for aspirin or cold medication, will they seek some dispensing fee for their time? “We’re concerned that there will be a lot of confusion out

Where Buyers And Sellers Meet 1000’s Of Ads Every Day

By Alison Johnson Daily Press (Newport News, Va.)

there,” said Jeff Beadle, CEO of SIGIS. “Someone is buying Tylenol in December, and they can’t now buy Tylenol in January unless they go to their doctor and get a prescription first.” SIGIS and retailers will face a sort of mini-Y2K scenario, when they update their computer systems by Jan. 1 to accommodate the new rules. Many retailers now indicate on receipts what products are eligible for FSA reimbursement, and some plans offer debit cards so that members don’t have to pay out of pocket and submit receipts for reimbursement. The IRS has indicated that generally consumers won’t be able to purchase overthe-counter medications with debit cards and has told retailers to have the changes implemented by Jan 15. Typically, retailers update their computers with the SIGIS list every month, but generally refrain from making any changes in December or January because of all the other FSA changes that happen around that time. Consumers get new debit cards, which sometimes aren’t loaded with their funds properly, or they may still be trying to use last year’s cards. Retailers expect some problems for the first three to six weeks of the new year and so try limit any other potential disruptions. “The timing of the change will be increasingly problematic because people will be heightened to the changes of health care reform being passed,” Beadle said. “ ‘Why is my card being declined? Is it because the item I bought isn’t eligible, or is it because for some reason my card will not even buy an eligible item?’ ” Retailers will face the additional dilemma of when to make

the change to their system. If they update the list before Jan. 1, consumers seeking to use up remaining 2009 FSA funds could have their purchases denied, but if they wait till after Jan. 1, they risk allowing 2010 FSA purchases to run afoul of the new rules. Beadle expects that about a third of the 45,000 items on its eligible list will have to move to its dual-purpose list because of the change.

Education needed Consumers and their doctors, however, appear to be largely unaware of the impending changes. At Bend Memorial Clinic, the region’s largest physician group, pharmacist Kyle Mills said doctors haven’t heard any requests for prescriptions to satisfy the FSA requirement. He does think that the additional hassle could result in some benefit. “It will be more beneficial if it creates the need for individuals to talk about their over-the-counter products with their health providers,” Mills said. “Then we’ll know if patients are taking ibuprofen all the time. If they are, they may need different pain control medicines. Or is this going to interfere with their current drugs?” Hewitt Associates, a human resources consulting firm in Lincolnshire, Ill., estimated that few Americans are likely to see a major impact from the rule changes. Only one in five employees offered an FSA participates, and 75 percent of spending is used for medical services or prescription drugs. The average FSA contribution is only $1,441 per year, and only 18 percent contribute more than $2,500; most of those who do earn more than $150,000

per year. The provisions could have the greatest impact on individuals with chronic conditions, such as those who have recurrent allergies and take some of the drugs that have recently moved from prescription to over-the-counter status. According to the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, individuals with chronic illnesses have an average of $4,398 per year in out-of-pocket costs, even with health insurance. Some financial experts are recommending people stock up on over-the-counter drugs this year if they have FSA dollars remaining so they can avoid the hassle of getting prescriptions. Manisha Thakor, a financial adviser with Savesmartspendhealthy.com, a website on FSAs, discourages such hoarding. “What I find is they often end up with useless inventory. I would much rather people take the time to look at the full array of the list rather than focus on OTC and panic about that,” she said. “I have a feeling people will find something else they truly need right now.” Thakor said the provision may also force people to sit down and think about what over-the-counter products they use so they can make better decisions about their FSA allocations next year. But she does suggest that consumers keep the 2013 cap in mind. “Plan ahead for any of the more plan-able major expenses, such as LASIK or braces,” she said. “If you’ve got kids or, like me, you’re getting older and your eyesight is fading, you know it’s coming. Use it.” Markian Hawryluk can be reached at 541-617-7814 or mhawryluk@bendbulletin.com.

More doctors’ offices are allowing patients to communicate by e-mail, but follow these basic rules: • Learn your doctor’s e-mail policies. Find out what questions the office is comfortable answering by computer, response times, whether messages go into your permanent medical record and who else in the office sees incoming e-mails. • Don’t assume complete privacy. Doctors do use password-protected Web sites but to be safe, leave out information you wouldn’t want to risk becoming public. Also be aware that other staff members, such as nurses or medical assistants, may read your message. • Never use e-mail for urgent questions. If you are in serious pain or have a significant new symptom, call the office — or 911. As a rule, use the phone if a question is important enough that you are worried about response time. • Keep it simple ... E-mail is ideal for making an appointment, getting routine lab results, requesting a prescription refill or referral or asking an uncomplicated question such as what time of day to take a medication. Focus on a single issue at a time. ... but cover basic details. Include your full name, date of birth and, if you have it, your patient identification number at the office. If you want a prescription refill, also write the name and number of the pharmacy you use. • Don’t expect an instant answer. Doctors are busy, although most offices have a policy of responding within 24 or 48 hours. • Don’t abuse the privilege. No forwarding jokes, witty sayings or lengthy medical articles you found online (unless your doctor specifically says it’s OK). Avoid starting a conversation unless you have a legitimate follow-up question. Remember that in this case, e-mail isn’t for casual chatting.

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 spine twist strengthens the oblique muscles of the

abdomen and helps create flexibility in the spine, said Bowen. How to do it: Sit on a mat or the floor with legs extended and arms straight out from shoulders. Inhale and twist your upper body to the right (1). Exhale back to center (2), then inhale and twist left (3). Bowen said she tells clients to think of their back like a barber pole. Do three to five twists on each side. — Betsy Q. Cliff, The Bulletin

John Miller, also known as Coach Slyde of Saline, instructs the Ann Arbor Derby Dimes during boot camp in August at the Sumpter Roller Rink in Belleville, Mich.

Derby Continued from F1 Link starts with the basics: “You have to learn that if your foot gets clipped by another skater, you don’t fall on your face.”

‘A tough, cool sport’ On one hot, sticky August morning, 31 women lined up in five rows doing drills. There was Evelyn Krieger, 32, a former figure skater. “For me, at my point in life, it’s nice because you don’t have to be 5 feet tall and 95 pounds to do derby,” says Krieger, a high school English teacher who lives in Ann Arbor. “It’s so welcoming to people of all backgrounds and sizes. There is the competition and camaraderie. And it’s a little rock and roll, which is cool.” There was Kristina Flaishans, 26, who’d gotten just four hours of sleep after waiting tables until closing time at an Ypsilanti bar. “It’s a sweet hobby,” says Flaishans, who lives in Ypsilanti. “It’s kind of bad-ass. It works you out as you have fun, and it’s a good excuse to get out of the house.” And there was Cristin Colling, fit and trim, a 46-year-old exercise junkie from Belleville, forever in search of a new challenge. She has tried hiking and skiing and rock climbing and running and tennis. Roller derby sounded like the next logical step. “I’ve always wanted to be in roller derby,” Colling says. “My grandmother used to talk about it. She and my grandfather would go and that was date night. It’s just cool that this has started.” Leo Seltzer, a Chicago sports promoter, is credited with holding the first roller derby event—an endurance race — in 1935, according to the National Roller Derby Hall of Fame. Eventually, roller derby morphed into a sport that emphasized skater collisions and falls, with two teams scoring points by passing members of the opposing team. The Derby Dimes is the only women’s banked-track roller derby league in Michigan. Other leagues, such as the Detroit Derby Girls and Grand Raggidy Roller Girls, compete on a flat track. Kassandra Frost went to the first practice with one goal: She didn’t want to fall. But, of course, she did. “I landed on my tailbone,” says Frost, 28, of Manchester, Mich. “I think I’ve landed on it every practice and it’s a little tender, but it’s getting better. It gives you a chance to challenge yourself. I still can’t go backwards very fast. I haven’t always been a very athletic person, so this is me learning how to do that.” Laura Jablonski also had some apprehension before joining, but she quickly fell for it. “This is the most bad-ass sport I’ve ever seen,” says Jablonski, 27, of Ann Arbor, Mich., who works for a company that distributes adult novelties. Jablonski says she feels a sense of accomplishment, doing something so unusual: “I never really liked sports, but this appealed to me. It’s a tough, cool sport.” The Derby Dimes practice three days a week, two hours at a time on an old-fashioned roller rink. Members eventually want to raise $40,000 to build a banked track for competitions. “We are all trying to build a league,” says Colling. “We want people to take this seriously. It’s a serious sport. If you aren’t trained right, if you aren’t involved or coming to practices, you aren’t go-

The Derby Dimes hope to hold scrimmages at the end of this year and have their first real competitions next summer. Some members of the Ann Arbor Dimes are stay-at-home moms who just want a break from the kids and to get some exercise. Others are searching for camaraderie and friendship. For Sarah Line, 22, roller derby is helping her manage a medical condition. She says she has obsessive-compulsive personality disorder, which manifests itself in a need to have an organized, scheduled life. She also says she has agoraphobia and is afraid to leave her house in Westland, Mich. So just attending practice is a major accomplishment. “I always wake up really nervous,” Line says. “I don’t want to leave the house. I want to be here but it’s so hard to come. I do a mental pep talk. This is what I want. If I keep letting it stop me, I’m never going to do a single thing I want to do.” After the first week of practice, she felt as if she had started to destroy a demon. “At the end, I couldn’t believe I did it. I think it’s a good way to get over my anxiety,” Line says. Her life has begun to change, and she has made lots of new friends. “I have a lot of people here who are encouraging me,” Line says. “A lot of times, if I get embarrassed, I won’t come back. If I get embarrassed in class, I dropped out of school. I started at Schoolcraft, and I dropped out. If I talked in front of people, if I stuttered, I couldn’t go back.” But she doesn’t feel that way in roller derby. “I don’t feel stupid,” Line says. “I haven’t felt judged. Last Sunday, I fell and I literally couldn’t get back up. I didn’t feel like anybody was staring at me. Nobody was saying, ‘Look at that girl!’ A lot of people are in the same boat that I am in.” Probst is reluctant to admit that she’s pushing the older side of the team’s age spectrum. “I’m an infiltrator of oldness,” she says. She works for Thomson Reuters with a cubicle in Ann Arbor, but she spends much of her time traveling the country. “Right now, I am teaching Medicare employees how to use a software and data mining software system to identify Medicare fraud,” she said, smiling, knowing how far removed that is from being a derby girl. She says that in her office she is known as a “very sweet, bubbly girl. They would have no idea that I’m doing roller derby.” Probst never participated in team sports but decided to try roller derby after attending her first bout. Each competition is called a “bout,” a boxing term, because a derby match is a fight to the end, according to the Women’s Flat Track Derby Association. Probst attended a Detroit Derby Girls championship this summer at Cobo Arena.

“I was blown away by how much I loved the whole vibe of the people and event,” Probst says. “These are the girls I grew up with, the ones I climbed trees with. “I’m so happy when I leave,” she says. “This is who I was until I hit puberty and had to change, when gender didn’t matter and you could just play.”

WATER AEROBICS

Younger exercisers should take the plunge for low-impact cardio By Vicky Hallett The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — Sean Stephens hasn’t told his friends he does water aerobics. “I guess until now,” the 36-year-old joked last week as we wiggled into the pool at LivingWell, the health club at the Washington Hilton. Only a few weeks ago, the runner and triathlete had never considered doing anything other than laps in the water. But a nagging knee injury persuaded him to take the plunge, and after 45 minutes of tuck jumps, sprints and breaststroke arms, he was ready to make it part of his weekly routine. “I actually got my heart rate up,” he says. That probably comes as no surprise to the senior women out there who tend to be water aero-

bics stalwarts. But they’re not the only ones who should be reaping the benefits of buoyancy and water resistance (12 times as great as that of air!), which provide a good setting for low-impact cardio and strength training. “Water is magic,” says Laura Ribbins, who’s one of the world’s leading authorities on aquatic exercise — perhaps because she’s based in the Cayman Islands, where water workouts are possible year-round. I ran into her at the DCAC fitness convention in Alexandria, Va., a month ago, where she was presenting sessions on how to lure baby boomers to water classes with super-athletic moves. As great as water is for older bodies, she recommends it for “anyone who’s into fitness.”

Tara Davis, the 30-year-old instructor at LivingWell in Washington, D.C., who persuaded Sean Stephens to try water aerobics, has a similar style during her anything-but-wimpy interval training classes. To make it more of a challenge for her fitter students, she relies on an array of aqua accessories, such as webbed gloves that increase resistance and foam dumbbells. “For a healthy young person, it’s a good complement to a (highimpact exercise) routine,” Davis says. “I do a lot of high-impact activities: running, kickboxing. I worry what my body is going to feel like when I’m 60.” In other words, doing water aerobics as cross-training now will prevent her from being limited to only water aerobics later.

NOTICE TO RESIDENTIAL TENANTS The property in which you are living is in foreclosure. A foreclosure sale is scheduled for December 16, 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. 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 30 days, even if you have a fixed-term lease with more than 30 days left. If you are renting under a month-to-month or week-to-week rental agreement, the buyer must give you at least 30 days' notice in writing before requiring you to move out. IMPORTANT: For the buyer to be required to give you notice under state law, you must prove to the business or individual who is handling the foreclosure sale that you are occupying and renting this property as a residential dwelling under a legitimate rental agreement. The name and address of the business or individual who is handling the foreclosure sale is shown on this notice under the heading 'TRUSTEE.' You must mail or deliver your proof not later than November 16, 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. YOU SHOULD CONTINUE TO PAY RENT TO YOUR LANDLORD UNTIL THE PROPERTY IS SOLD TO ANOTHER BUSINESS OR INDIVIDUAL OR UNTIL A COURT OR A LENDER TELLS YOU OTHERWISE. IF YOU DO NOT PAY RENT, YOU CAN BE EVICTED. AS EXPLAINED ABOVE, YOU MAY BE ABLE TO APPLY A DEPOSIT YOU MADE OR PREPAID RENT YOU PAID AGAINST YOUR CURRENT RENT OBLIGATION. BE SURE TO KEEP PROOF OF ANY PAYMENTS YOU MAKE AND OF ANY NOTICE YOU GIVE OR RECEIVE CONCERNING THE APPLICATION OF YOUR DEPOSIT OR YOUR PREPAID RENT. IT IS UNLAWFUL FOR ANY PERSON TO TRY TO FORCE YOU TO LEAVE YOUR HOME WITHOUT FIRST GOING TO COURT TO EVICT YOU. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR RIGHTS, YOU MAY WISH TO CONSULT A LAWYER. If you believe you need legal assistance, contact the Oregon State Bar and ask for the lawyer referral service. Contact information for the Oregon State Bar is included with this notice. If you do not have enough money to pay a lawyer and are otherwise eligible, you may be able to receive legal assistance for free.

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.

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. YOU SHOULD CONTINUE TO PAY RENT TO YOUR LANDLORD UNTIL THE PROPERTY IS SOLD TO ANOTHER BUSINESS OR INDIVIDUAL OR UNTIL A COURT OR A LENDER TELLS YOU OTHERWISE.
