Deschutes led state in population growth Governor, Redmond almost doubled since 2000, census data show By Tim Doran The Bulletin

Despite the economic crisis at the end of the decade, Deschutes County grew faster between 2000 and 2010 than any other Oregon county, according to data released Wednesday by the U.S. Census Bureau. Sisters and Redmond led the way, with some of the highest growth rates among Oregon cities, according to the data.

This sign on South Century Drive was likely an estimate, but the 2010 Census lists Bend’s population at 76,639. Among the state’s most populated cities, Redmond’s 94 percent growth rate ranked it No. 1. The near doubling of the Red-

mond’s population stretched the city’s infrastructure, said Deschutes County Commissioner Alan Unger, who served as Redmond mayor from 20012008, but the city also collected development charges to add road and sewer capacity, which will help in the future. “The challenge with growth like that is the impact it has on services, especially schools,” he said. Bend also reported strong growth during the decade, but its 2010 population, 76,639, surprised city officials. A sign on South Century Drive lists the population at 80,995. See Census / A4

By diverting sewer line, Bend will fix a smelly situation

SNOW STRAIGHT AHEAD

By Nick Grube The Bulletin

If it wasn’t for the smell, summertime on northwest Marken Street in Bend’s Valhalla Heights neighborhood would be a lot more pleasant. Two to six times every day, large amounts of sewage roils below the quiet residential area, which is located across Mt. Washington Drive from Central Oregon Community College’s forested campus. When it’s hot out, this sewage carries an abusive — some would say nauseating — odor that seeps through manhole covers and sometimes percolates through home plumbing vents. Ken Roadman, who lives on Marken Street, said he can actually hear the odor coming. When the sewage flows underneath the road, he said, it sounds like a rushing stream. “Frankly, it smells like you-know-what around here,” he said. “It’s really offensive.” The problem, which the city is trying to fix, begins at a sewer pump station a few miles away from Vahalla Heights off Putnam Road near the Awbrey Glen golf course.

SALEM — An initial contract proposal from Gov. John Kitzhaber to the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees Council 75 calls for an end to the state’s 6 percent pickup practice and has state workers taking seven furlough days per year, which equates to a pay cut of roughly 3 percent. Don Loving, with AFSCME, said this is just the beginning of the contract negotiation dance. “We tell our members, don’t overreact to our state’s proposal,” he said. “They have to throw everything out there, the same with us. Whatever gets settled on is not going to look like the state’s initial proposal or ours.” AFSCME represents about 6,000 state, county and city employees, according to Loving. The bargaining process that began Tuesday affects about 3,000 employees, including those who work for the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality, the Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development and the Oregon Liquor Control Commission. Corrections officers, who make up about half of the union’s membership, have a separate bargaining process. The state’s initial contract also proposes to cap government employers’ health insurance contributions at 2010 levels, requiring employees to pay for increases in the cost of coverage. The state now pays the full cost of employee health coverage. The state’s proposal also call for the elimination of step pay increases until June 30, 2013. Curtis Robinhold, the governor’s chief of staff, said in a statement that “I want to reiterate that Governor Kitzhaber is a strong believer in the right of workers to organize and bargain collectively.” Under the union’s initial proposal, meanwhile, public employees would receive a salary increase in line with the Consumer Price Index, plus 2 percent, on July 1 of this year and another such increase on July 2, 2012. Step increases would continue. Employers would keep covering employees’ health insurance premiums in full. The 6 percent pickup would be left alone. The day after Thanksgiving would become an additional holiday. See Contract / A5

WILLIAMSBURG, Ky. — Is Rep. Harold Rogers the right man to break Congress’ addiction to spending? One might ponder that question at the water park here, part of the Hal Rogers Family Entertainment Center. Or during a drive on Hal Rogers Boulevard. Or Hal Rogers Drive. Or Hal Rogers Parkway. Rogers, who chairs the House Appropriations Committee, is the point man for GOP budget slashing. But he didn’t get a water park for cutting budgets: It was a reward for directing federal spending to Kentucky. One of Rogers’ top committee deputies is Rep. Bill Young. In Florida, his name adorns a drawbridge, a marine science complex and a military depot.

Their stories reveal the larger struggle behind the current spending debate in Washington. It’s not just about money. It’s about Congress’ DNA — and changing the definition of what a member of Congress is. Lawmakers have long seen themselves in part as human funnels whose primary job is to bring home federal money. Now, the GOP wants its members to define themselves by what they can reduce, defund or terminate. Thus, Rogers and Young, masters of the old culture, are key indicators of whether the new model will work. If they can turn against the system that built their monuments, anyone can.

Some challenges

By Vikas Bajaj New York Times News Service

PANTNAGAR, India — The Nagla elementary school in this north Indian town looks like many other rundown government schools. Sweater-clad children sit on burlap sheets laid in rows on cold concrete floors. Lunch is prepared out back on a fire of burning twigs and branches. But the classrooms of Nagla are a laboratory for an educational approach unusual for an Indian public school. Rather than being drilled and tested on reproducing passages from textbooks, students write their own stories. And they pursue independent projects — as when fifth-grade students recently interviewed organizers of religious festivals and then made written and oral presentations. That might seem commonplace in U.S. or European schools. But such activities are revolutionary in India, where public school students have long been drilled on memorizing facts and regurgitating them in stressful year-end exams that many children fail. Nagla and 1,500 other schools in this Indian state, Uttarakhand, are part of a five-year-old project to improve Indian primary education that is being paid for by one of the country’s richest men, Azim Premji, chairman of the information technology giant Wipro. Education experts at his Premji Foundation are helping to train new teachers and guide current teachers and administrators in overhauling the way students are taught and tested at government schools.

vate schools. But he argues that government schools need help more because they are often the last or only resort for India’s poorest and least educated families.

Technology mogul is funding a revolution in teaching, training

For Premji, 65, there can be no higher priority if India is to fulfill its potential as an emerging economic giant. Because the Indian population is so youthful — nearly 500 million people, or 45 percent of the country’s total, are 19 or younger — improving the education system is one of the country’s most pressing challenges. “The bright students rise to the top, which they do anywhere in any system,” Premji said over lunch at Wipro’s headquarters in Bangalore, 1,300 miles south of Uttarakhand. “The people who are underprivileged are not articulate, less self-confident, they slip further. They slip much further. You compound a problem of people who are handicapped socially.” Within India, there is widespread recognition that the coun-

Nikita, 7, makes a face during an interacting learning session at Nagla elementary school in Uttarakhand, India. Nagla and 1,500 other schools in Uttarakhand are part of a five-year-old project that is trying to change how students are taught and tested. try has not invested enough in education, especially at the primary and secondary levels. In the past five years, government spending on education has risen sharply — to $83 billion last year, up from less half that level before. Schools now offer free lunches, which has helped raise enrollments to more than 90 percent of children. Most Indian schools still perform poorly. Barely half of fifthgrade students can read simple texts in their language of study, according to a survey of 13,000 rural schools by Pratham, a nonprofit education group. Most students drop out before they reach the 10th grade.

Contrast with China Those statistics stand in stark contrast to China, where a government focus on education has achieved a literacy rate of 94 percent of the population, compared with 64 percent in India. Premji said he hoped his foundation would eventually make a difference for tens of millions of children by focusing on critical educational areas like exams, curricula and teacher training. He said he wanted to reach many more children than he could by opening private schools — the approach taken by many other wealthy Indians. Premji, whose total wealth Forbes magazine has put at $18 billion, recently gave the foundation $2 billion worth of shares in his company. And he said that he expected to give more in the future. Those newly donated shares are being used to start an education-focused university in Bangalore and to expand and spread programs like the one here in Uttarakhand and a handful of other places to reach 50 of India’s 626 school districts. The effort’s size and scope is unprecedented for a private initiative in India, philanthropy experts say. Even though India’s recent rapid growth has helped dozens

of tycoons acquire billions of dollars in wealth, few have pledged such a large sum to a social cause.

‘This has never been attempted before’ “This has never been attempted before, either by a foundation or a for-profit group,” said Jayant Sinha, who heads the Indian office of Omidyar Network, the philanthropic investment firm set up by the eBay founder Pierre Omidyar. Although the results in Uttarakhand are promising, they also suggest that progress will be slow. Average test scores in one of the two districts where the foundation operates climbed to 54 percent in 2008, up from 37.4 percent two years earlier. (A passing mark is 33 percent or higher.) Still, only 20 of the 1,500 schools that the foundation works with in Uttarakhand have managed to reach a basic standard of learning as determined by competence tests, enrollment and attendance. Nagla is not one of the 20. “We are working with the kids who were neglected before,” said D.N. Bhatt, a district education coordinator for the Uttarakhand state government. “You won’t see the impact right away.” The Premji Foundation helps schools in states where the government has invited its participation — a choice that some educational experts criticize because it seems to ignore fast-growing private schools that teach about a quarter of the country’s students, including many of India’s poor. Narayana Murthy, a friend of Premji and chairman of Infosys, a company that competes with Wipro, said he admired the Premji Foundation’s work but worried it would be undermined by the way India administers its schools. “While I salute Azim for what he is doing,” Murthy said, “in order to reap the dividends of that munificence and good work, we have to improve our governance.” Premji says his foundation would be willing to work with pri-

While the foundation has been welcomed by government officials in many places, the schools in Uttarakhand provide a glimpse of the challenges it faces. After visitors left a classroom at Nagla school, an instructor began leading more than 50 fifth-grade students in a purely rote English lesson, instructing the students to repeat simple phrases: Good morning. Good afternoon. Good evening. Good night. The children loudly chanted them back in unison. Another teacher later explained that the instructor was one of two “community teachers” — local women hired by a shopkeeper to help the understaffed school. Although under government rules Nagla should have nine trained teachers for its 340 students, it has only four. Underfunding is pervasive in the district. But so are glimmers of the educational benefits that might come through efforts like the Premji Foundation’s. Surjeet Chakrovarty, now a 15-year-old secondary school student, is a graduate of Nagla and still visits his old school regularly. The son of a widower who is a sweeper at a local university, Surjeet aspires to become a poet and songwriter — something he attributes to the encouragement of his former teachers at Nagla. “My teachers here gave me so much motivation to write,” he said. One of those Nagla teachers, Pradeep Pandey, shared credit with the Premji Foundation, and its assistance in developing new written and oral tests. “Before, we had a clear idea of the answers and the child had to repeat exactly what we had in mind,” Pandey said. “We can’t keep doing what we did in the past, and pass them without letting them learn anything.”

Hundreds of teenagers packed Boston’s City Council chambers Tuesday with a simple message: “Sex Education Now.” Students held black-andwhite signs with that declaration during a hearing as they pressed the city to bolster sex education programs in public high schools, including making condoms more available. Many of the adults in the room, including Councilor Ayanna Pressley, who called the hearing, said it was a crucial step toward letting the students know that their concerns have not gone unheard and progress is being made to bring about change. “There is no controversy when it comes to the fundamental question at the heart of today’s hearing,” Pressley said. “Not taking action — now that would be controversial. It would also be cowardly.” But not everyone in the room agreed with the sentiment. Maggie McLean, a graduate student at Harvard, said she, too, is concerned with “the current hookup culture” of many high school students “but distributing condoms is not the solution.” McLean, also a member of Pure at Heart, a nonprofit of young Catholic adults, said students need a sex-education program that gives them “the tools to resist a culture of casual sexual activity presented in the media. Please make sure that sex-ed in Boston Public Schools is truly comprehensive. Don’t say, ‘Be safe. Here’s a condom.’”

Condom availability is not the main issue Students are asking to learn about more than sex and condom usage. Focusing on the controversy of their proposal distracts from the comprehensive nature of their demands, they say. Hung Nguyen, a senior at Snowden International School said his formal education about human reproduction came in the sixth grade, but “it was like: ‘This is a condom. This is what males use to prevent pregnancy.’ We didn’t really talk about sexually transmitted diseases.” That is one of the important components of a comprehensive sexual education class, as well as teaching students how to cultivate and maintain healthy relationships, how to spot unhealthy relationships, and discussing sexual identity for gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender students. Under Boston’s current policy, condoms are available at nine high schools with community health centers. Although Boston schools are supposed to teach sex education in the ninth grade, the delivery and quality of the programs vary greatly, say teenagers and advocacy groups.

T S Obama: marriage Gadhafi massing forces act blocks gay rights

MIDDLE EAST PROTESTS

By Kareem Fahim and David D. Kirkpatrick

New York Times News Service

BAIDA, Libya — As rebellion crept closer to the capital and defections of military officers multiplied, Col. Moammar Gadhafi called on thousands of mercenaries and irregular forces Wednesday to defend his bastion in Tripoli, in what residents said was a dangerous turn in the week-old uprising. Distrustful of even his own generals, Gadhafi has for years quietly built up this ruthless and loyal force. It is made up of special brigades headed by his sons, segments of the military loyal to his native tribe and its allies, and legions of African mercenaries he has helped train and equip. Witnesses said members of this irregular army were massing on roads to the capital, Tripoli, where one resident described scenes evocative of anarchic Somalia.

Some residents of Tripoli said they took the gathering army as a sign that the uprising might be entering a decisive stage, with Gadhafi fortifying his main stronghold in the capital and protesters there gearing up for their first organized demonstration after days of rioting and bloody crackdowns.

Rebels claim Misurata The fall of other cities to rebels Wednesday, including Misurata, 130 miles east of the capital, left Gadhafi more embattled — and his opponents emboldened. The death toll so far has been impossible to determine. Human rights groups say they have confirmed about 300 deaths, although witnesses suggested the number was far larger. On Wednesday, Franco Frattini, the foreign minister of Italy, said more than 1,000 people were probably dead across

the country. Egyptian officials said Wednesday that nearly 30,000 people — mostly Egyptians working in Libya — had fled across their border. People fleeing west into Tunisia said the rebellion was now taking off far from its origins just a week ago in the eastern city of Benghazi, Libya’s second-largest city. On Wednesday, protesters claimed victory in nearby Zawai, where local army units are said to have joined them. Some said there had been intense fighting in the past few nights in Sabratha, 50 miles west of Tripoli, where witnesses Wednesday reported a heavy deployment of machinegun toting foreign mercenaries and Gadhafi loyalists known as revolutionary committees. “The revolutionary committees are trying to kill everyone who is against Gadhafi,” said a doctor fleeing Sabratha.

THOUSANDS OF TURKS AMONG EVACUEES FROM LIBYA

By Charlie Savage and Sheryl Gay Stolberg New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama, in a striking legal and political shift, has determined that the Defense of Marriage Act — the 1996 law that bars federal recognition of same-sex marriages — is unconstitutional and has directed the Justice Department to stop defending the law in court, the administration said Wednesday. Attorney General Eric Holder announced the decision in a letter to members of Congress. In it, he said the administration was taking the extraordinary step of refusing to defend the law, despite having done so during Obama’s first two years

in the White House. “The president and I have concluded that classifications based on sexual orientation” should Barack be subjected Obama to a strict legal test intended to block unfair discrimination, Holder wrote. As a result, he said, a crucial provision of the Defense of Marriage Act “is unconstitutional.” Conservatives denounced the shift, gay rights advocates hailed it as a watershed, and legal scholars said it could have far-reaching implications beyond the marriage law. For Obama, who opposes same-sex marriage but has said repeated-

ly that his views are “evolving,” there are political implications as well. Coming on the heels of his push for Congress to repeal the “don’t ask, don’t tell” law barring the military from allowing gays to serve openly, the administration’s move seems likely to intensify the long-running cultural clash over samesex marriage as the 2012 political campaign is heating up. “This is a great step by the Obama administration and a tipping point for the gay rights movement that will have ripple effects in contexts beyond the Defense of Marriage Act,” said Anthony Romero, the executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union. “It will reach into issues of employment discrimination, family recognition and full equality rights for lesbian and gay people.”

Quake toll at 76 dead, 238 missing The Associated Press CHRISTCHURCH, New Zealand — Rescuers broadened their search of collapsed buildings in New Zealand’s quake-shattered city of Christchurch today, as hopes faded of finding any more survivors in the hardest-hit office blocks downtown. Police said today that up to 120 bodies may still lie trapped in the tangled concrete and steel that was the Canterbury Television building, where dozens of students from Japan, Thailand and other Asian countries were

believed buried when an English-language school collapsed along with other offices. The official death toll from Tuesday’s 6.3-magnitude temblor stood at 76 as of this morning, based on the number of bodies that have been recovered from throughout the city and brought to a special morgue. The missing were listed at 238 — though officials stressed that many of those may be safe but not yet accounted for. “We know there are more bodies yet to be recovered and we are in the process of doing that,” police Superintendent Dave Cliff

told a news conference today. Prime Minister John Key declared the quake a national disaster and analysts estimate its cost at up to $12 billion. The damaged buildings in and around Christchurch numbered in the thousands, including many of the older structures in Lyttelton, a port town just southeast of the city and closer to the quake’s epicenter. Residents there wandered through the dusty, brick and glass-covered streets, pausing to offer each other hugs and ask the ubiquitous question: “How’s your house?”

Turkish workers evacuated from Benghazi, Libya, arrive in a naval port in the Mediterranean resort of Marmaris, Turkey, early today. About 25,000 Turks work for construction firms in Libya. Two Turkish ships had evacuated about 3,000 Turkish nationals. The safety of U.S. citizens was a prime concern after failed attempts earlier this week to get them

out by plane. But hundreds of Americans safely boarded a 600-passenger ferry at Tripoli’s As-shahab port on Wednesday for the five-hour journey to Malta, a Mediterranean island south of Italy. Over a dozen countries — including Russia, China, Germany and Ukraine — sent planes in to help their citizens escape an increasingly unstable situation.

Bahraini king in Saudi Arabia to discuss unrest By Michael Slackman and Nadim Audi New York Times News Service

MANAMA, Bahrain — A day after one of the largest prodemocracy demonstrations this tiny Persian Gulf nation had ever seen, its king was in Saudi Arabia, a close ally and neighbor, to discuss the unrest engulfing the region. The visit of King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa on Wednesday

came just as the aging Saudi ruler, King Abdullah, returned to the country after three months of medical treatment in the United States and Morocco. Even before Abdullah landed in Riyadh, the capital, the Saudi government announced that it would pour billions of dollars into a fund to help its citizens marry, buy homes and start their own businesses, the government announced. Reuters said the pack-

age was estimated at $37 billion. Hamad had already tried his own payout — offering $2,650 to every Bahraini family in the days before large protests broke out more than a week ago — but the economic concession was not enough to stem the tide of opposition from the country’s Shiite majority.

More standoffs, plus House GOP wants a prank in Wisconsin cuts in exchange New York Times News Service MADISON, Wis. — An increasingly heated national debate about the rights of union workers was stuck in a standoff Wednesday, as Democratic lawmakers here and in Indiana stayed away from their capitols to frustrate Republican efforts to vote on legislation that would undercut collective bargaining and the ability to organize. As the fights in Wisconsin, Ohio and Indiana have garnered attention, more fights were expected soon — in Oklahoma, where the House is considering legislation that would ban collective bargaining with municipal unions, and in Tennessee, where Republicans work to prevent collective bargaining between teachers’ unions and school boards. In Wisconsin, Democratic lawmakers said the state’s Republican governor, Scott Walker, was out purely to bust the unions, noting that the unions had already agreed to the concessions on wages and benefits to balance the budget. Suspicions were increased after the revelation of comments Walker made during what turned out to be a prank phone call from a blogger posing as a conservative donor. The governor discussed tactics to trick Democrats back to the Capitol, and compared his efforts to President Ronald Reagan’s firing of the air traffic controllers in 1981. “This is our moment, this is our time to change history,” Walker said.

for spending bill New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — House Republicans told Senate Democrats on Wednesday that they would agree to a temporary spending bill to avert a government shutdown next week only if the measure began instituting House-passed cuts on a pro-rated basis. Officials familiar with talks between representatives of House and Senate leaders said the proposal, still being assembled for a possible vote next week, would call for $4 billion in reductions in exchange for an additional two weeks to allow the House and Senate to negotiate a spending plan to finance the government through Sept. 30. Democratic aides said the short-term proposal was likely to be deemed unacceptable since it simply reflected a staggered version of the $61 billion in cuts approved by the House on Saturday in a proposal Senate Democrats already oppose. Senate aides said they saw the initiative as a Republican attempt to win the support of moderate Democrats who could be persuaded that the $4 billion figure was acceptable even though the leadership saw it as a back-door way to enact the House cuts.

New round of Arizona immigration restrictions By Marc Lacey New York Times News Service

PHOENIX — Arizona lawmakers are proposing a sweeping package of immigration restrictions that might make the controversial measures the state approved last year, which the Obama administration went to court to block from taking effect, look mild. Immigrants would be banned from enrolling in school, from driving anywhere in the state and from receiving most public benefits. The offspring of illegal immigrants would receive special birth certificates that would make clear that the state does not consider them Arizona citizens. Some of the bills, like those restricting immigrants’ access to schooling and right to state citizenship, flout current federal law and are being put forward to draw legal challenges in hopes that the Supreme Court might rule in the state’s favor. Arizona drew considerable scorn last year when it passed legislation compelling police officers to inquire about the immigration status of those they stopped whom they suspected were in the country illegally. Critics said the law would lead to racial profiling of Latinos, and a federal judge agreed that portions of the law were unconstitutional. Similar legal challenges are likely in response to the latest round of legislation, some of which cleared a key Senate committee Tuesday night after a long debate that drew hundreds of protesters. “This bill is miles beyond S.B. 1070 in terms of its potential to roll back the rights and fundamental freedoms of both citizens and noncitizens alike,” said Alessandra Soler Meetze, executive director of the ACLU of Arizona. She said that the measures would create “a ‘papers, please’ society” and that a new crime — “driving while undocumented” — would be added to the books.

Sewer Continued from A1 That station collects sewage from about 1,500 different customers in and around the area, many of whom are residential users. As toilets are flushed and bathtubs drained, the wastewater flows into a wet well at the pump station. It collects there until there is enough to send it flowing through a pipeline to a treatment plant on the east side of town. On its way there it takes a slight detour off Mt. Washington Drive and through the Valhalla Heights neighborhood. But in the summer, sweltering temperatures can turn the pump station’s storage well into a cauldron. The sewage heats up while it waits for transport, releasing its fragrance in the form of hydrogen sulfide. According to Bend Utility Operations and Maintenance Manager Paul Roy, that compound is what makes up “that rotten egg smell that you get” with stagnating sewage. What’s worse, he said, is that once it starts to move through the pipes, turbulence churns out more gas, which gets pushed through the system, exacerbating the problem. “That’s the most predominant of the stinky smell,” Roy said. “It’s pretty complicated system out there, but the basic premise is if you have time and you have heat, you’re going to have odorous compounds.” The city has tried to mask the odors in Valhalla Heights using various chemical agents, but the results have been mixed. At the urging of Roadman and other homeowners, the city is now planning to divert the sewage around Valhalla Heights and down Mt. Washington Drive instead.

$600K to $800K project Estimates for such a project range between $600,000 and $800,000, according to city engineers, and work is expected to take place as soon as this upcoming construction season.

Census Continued from A1 “That is a surprise,” said Mayor Jeff Eager, “that the census numbers are lower than we were expecting.” Both he and City Manager Eric King said population numbers on the signs come from estimates calculated by the state’s official demographic agency, the Population Research Center at Portland State University. The center estimated Bend’s population as of July 1, at 83,125. It bases estimates on birth and death records, state income tax returns, Medicare data, nonfarm payroll information, changes in housing numbers and other administrative records. But the official once-a-decade census is a count of the nation’s population, as required by the U.S. Constitution. It serves as the base for the estimates. It does not appear Bend lost population, said Paul Rheault, the city’s public works director. Drinking water and wastewater usage have generally increased, he said. A loss of about 4,300 people would be noticeable. “We’re not seeing anything go down significantly,” he said. If the population signs at the city limits need to change, Bend’s sign crews can handle the job, Rheault said. The population counts carry more than bragging rights.

Lincoln Continued from A1 And of the fanciful statue by Burganov, he said, “We can’t wait to put them up in Washington somewhere.” Sticklers for accuracy will notice, beyond the handshake, that although the Czar-Liberator was tall, he was still about three inches shorter than Lincoln, a discrepancy in height that’s not immediately apparent in Burganov’s work. A military band played Russian and American marches at the opening of the exhibit, while an honor guard in oldtimey uniforms stood at attention by large oil portraits of the two national leaders. A joint Russian-American venture, the exhibit includes busts, maps, letters, lithographs, a Smith & Wesson revolver, a bugle, some swords, the pens that each leader used to sign his respective proclamation and the tunic Alexander was wearing when he was

City officials say it’s unclear exactly why the sewer line that comes from the Awbrey pump station makes a slight jaunt into Valhalla Heights. From the pump station, a sewer line goes up Putnam Road to Mt. Washington. From there it follows that road for about two miles until taking a sharp turn into the Valhalla Heights and hooking into another pipe that runs down Marken Street. After it leaves Valhalla Heights, the sewer line connects to another line that runs down Shevlin Park Road, which eventually turns into Newport Avenue.

History is a mystery Bend Public Works Director Paul Rheault said many of his employees weren’t at the city when the pipe was buried in the ground, or when the connection from Mt. Washington Drive to Marken Street was approved. For that reason, he said, the history is somewhat lost on him. “I’m a little bewildered that when Mt. Washington was built why they didn’t separate the line and put it under Mt. Washington,” Rheault said. “That would have made sense to a lot of us.” Roadman still blames the city for the problem. He built his house in Valhalla Heights in 1988 and believes the city should have required the pump station sewer line to follow Mt. Washington when development later occurred around Awbrey Glenn. While he can laugh about the smell now — probably because it’s winter and he knows a fix is on the way — he said he definitely couldn’t live with aroma much longer. It’s just become too powerful, he said, enough so that it makes him joke about the need for a gas mask when he hears the sewage rumble down his street. “To me it was definitely an oversight and it should not have happened,” Roadman said. “I appreciate the work from the city, but, boy, it should never have happened.”

Terrebonne — which lost 212 residents, or more than 14 percent, from 2000 to 2010, and Tumalo, which did not have population figures from 2000. It had 488 people last year. In 2000, La Pine was a census designated place. It incorporated in 2006, however. That may have led to its swing in population, dropping nearly 72 percent from 2000 to 2010. Eight Eastern Oregon counties lost population between 2000 and 2010, the data show. Of the larger cities in the region, Burns lost 8.42 percent of its residents, a decline of about 250 people. Others to lose population in Eastern Oregon included Baker City, Hines, Halfway, Wallowa, Lostine and Prairie City. Enterprise, Joseph and La Grande, however, gained. Portland remained the state’s largest city, gaining about 10 percent in population between 2000 and 2010. Census figures list the 2010 population at 583,776. Eugene and Salem finished second and third, respectively, both growing about 13 percent between 2000 and 2010. Eugene’s population reached 156,185 last year, with Salem close behind, at 154,637.

“This exhibit is another reminder that Russia and the U.S. can cooperate most efficiently when they have common agendas.” — Ivan Kurilla, head of the Center for American Studies at Volgograd State University blown up by a bomb in 1881. Letters from Alexander to Lincoln were signed, in French, “your very affectionate friend.” Another letter to Lincoln, from Nathaniel Hawthorne, endorses the appointment of Bayard Taylor, “one of the brotherhood of literature,” as minister to Russia. When he returned to the United States from Alexander’s court, Taylor lectured widely on the liberation of the serfs. Lincoln, said historian Ivan Kurilla, head of the Center for American Studies at Volgograd State University, once went to hear him. Alexander was intent on reforming the creaky Russian state, and the conservative owners of Russia’s vast land holdings passionately resisted him.

Liberals couldn’t help but notice the parallels with the slave-holding plantation owners in the American South, said Andrei Yanovsky, a co-curator of the archive exhibit. In the 1850s, in fact, when censorship made it impossible to criticize conditions in Russia, newspapers and magazines devoted large amounts of space to denunciations of American slavery — and, Kurilla said, readers understood that this was a stand-in for the actual target, Russian serfdom. His foreign minister said Alexander considered the outbreak of the Civil War to be “deplorable,” threatening the progress and prosperity that America had achieved in its 80 years of independence.

squadrons to New York and San Francisco as a show of support for the Union. Russia at the time was wary of British designs and feared that a Confederate victory would play into British hands. On this point he got no argument from Lincoln. The president was under no illusions about Russian despotism - he once remarked, before going to the White House, that at least it was honest about its cruelty, compared with the hypocrisy that swirled around the American debate over slavery. For his part, Alexander seems to have been confident enough in the lasting power of the Russian royal family that he needn’t worry about befriending a republic that had cast off its king. The United States and Russia had better relations in the mid19th century than they did even during World War II, Kurilla said. “This exhibit is another reminder that Russia and the U.S. can cooperate most efficiently when they have common agendas.” Now it’s just a question of finding one.

Hispanics lag in Web usage, survey finds By Cecilia Kang and Krissah Thompson The Washington Post

Hispanics are less connected to the Internet than whites and blacks, use websites less frequently, and express more discomfort with computers and technology in the workplace, according to a new survey. That could set back the nation’s fastest-growing ethnic group, experts say, as more employment, educational and health-care opportunities migrate online. According to a new Washington Post-Kaiser Family Foundation-Harvard University poll, 72 percent of Hispanics say they use the Internet, lower than the percentages of whites and African Americans.

If you have been living with back pain or neck pain, are you really living? If you think you’ve tried everything, you need to read this. Pills and shots temporarily mask pain, and often times do more harm to the body than good. Surgeries are invasive, cause new pains, require weeks of downtime, and still may not be successful at treating the cause of the pain. It’s time to look at an alternative that avoids all of these downfalls because it is fundamentally different. Redmond Wellness & Chiropractic offers such an alternative with our spinal decompression program

that is like no other in Central Oregon. We know our program works because we have already seen outstanding success with our patients. People suffering from excruciating, lifestyle-altering pain have entered our program. When they completed our spinal decompression program, they were able to return to work, get back to the activities they love, and cancel those shots and surgeries!

The x-rays showed that I had degenerative disc disease and arthritis in the spine. The pain started in my right buttock, radiated across my thigh, and into my kneecap. Traditional chiropractic care hadn’t helped. After three treatments on the SpineMed table about 70% of the pain was gone. Upon completion of treatment I am 85% pain free, I can stand up straight and don’t have to lean over the shopping cart, and can walk almost a mile. Best of all, Mr. Grumpy is gone! --Dave D., Redmond, November 2010

Spinal decompression therapy uses state of the art equipment from SpineMed with a variety of technologies and therapies tailored to each patient’s needs. And it’s all completely noninvasive! You can get relief from:

• Back Pain • Neck Pain • Herniated/Bulging Discs

• Degenerative Disc Disease • Sciatica • Spinal Stenosis

Thanks to spinal decompression I feel better than I did before the pinched nerve in my back! According to the M.D. who read my MRI - my back was a mess and worn out with a lot of arthritis. He recommended a nerve block which didn’t help. The next recommendation was surgery. That’s when I visited Dr. Herrin at Redmond Wellness & Chiropractic and discussed spinal decompression. After 7-8 treatments I was pain free and off vicodin. I was even able to go back to work! I would recommend this as an alternative to anyone considering back surgery. The nurse called to tell me when the surgery date was scheduled, and I’m feeling so great that I canceled it! Thanks to everyone at Redmond Wellness & Chiropractic! --Steve L., Bend, June 2010

We are offering FREE examinations and consultations, so that anybody can learn if they can be helped with spinal decompression therapy without any financial obligation.

A state’s population determines how many representatives it has in the U.S. House of Representatives, which is why Oregon has five congressional districts and California has 53. The census also determines how $400 billion in federal funding gets divvied up for road projects, job training, schools, emergency services and other programs, the bureau has said. In late December, the Census Bureau released state population totals, and on Wednesday it released the figures for counties, cities, school districts and smaller areas. It also included population counts by race and voting age, along with a count of housing for Oregon and two other states. These numbers allow Oregon officials to redraw state legislative districts, which can determine who controls the Legislature, potentially setting the agenda for public schools, crime and punishment and taxes for a decade. For example, because of population growth, the city of Bend and Deschutes River Woods became a single House district in 2001. Previously, House District 54 included La Pine, Sunriver, Gilchrist and Fort Klamath. Along with population counts for cities, the Census Bureau provides data for unincorporated areas, called census designated places. Deschutes County’s places include

NEW MEXICO

Space tourism hits economic snag By Dan Frosch New York Times News Service

TRUTH OR CONSEQUENCES, N.M. — Somewhere off a dusty road in southern New Mexico sits a hulking, horseshoe-crab-shaped structure and a two-mile-long slab of concrete flanked by mesas and mountains. Welcome to Spaceport America, the country’s first facility built specifically for commercial space travel — an endeavor that the state envisioned as the epicenter of a fledgling industry where tourists would pay large sums to take suborbital flights into space. These days, though, after years of planning and debate, New Mexico’s grand ambitions for the spaceport have come down to earth, its future entwined with the state’s struggling economy. Although more than 400 people have put down deposits for flights, totaling more than $55 million, it is still not exactly clear when the first flight will launch. In her first two months in office, Gov. Susana Martinez removed the spaceport’s supervising board, pushed out its executive director and began a review of the project’s finances, saying the spaceport needed more robust private investment. Martinez, a Republican, was elected on a promise of paring down government, and the state’s revenue windfall is long gone. The governor has since made a point of stating her support for the project, and this month she appointed a new board, including three former members and Sid Gutierrez, a former astronaut. But she has also vowed to privatize the spaceport, saying taxpayers have already paid their fair share. “The spaceport is part of the plan for economic development in New Mexico, and the voters made it clear they support it,” Martinez said in a recent interview. “We want to be a leader in space exploration, but we want to do it within our budget.” The dream of a commercial spaceport has been around for years in New Mexico, which has long had a love affair with aerospace and aliens. In 2006, flush with oil and gas revenue, the Legislature, pushed by Gov. Bill Richardson, approved $132 mil-

The terminal and hangar facility at Spaceport America, the country’s first facility built for commercial space travel, in Truth or Consequences, N.M. New Mexico’s new governor, Susana Martinez, is saying she still supports the spaceport after she removed the supervising board, demanded the resignation of its executive director and launched an ongoing review of the project’s finances.

“The spaceport is part of the plan for economic development in New Mexico, and the voters made it clear they support it. We want to be a leader in space exploration, but we want to do it within our budget.” — Gov. Susana Martinez, New Mexico lion to build the spaceport. Standing to reap the benefits if the project succeeds, voters in Dona Ana and Sierra counties passed a quarter-cent sales tax, which will provide the remaining money needed for construction. But New Mexico has since taken on a $450 million deficit. The ambitious project was budgeted at about $209 million, but a second runway could be needed to expand commercial operations. Martinez has made it clear she wants any additional financing

for the spaceport to come from private industry. “That’s going to be our big push right now,” she said. Supporters of the project say the spaceport could create hundreds of jobs and draw wealthy tourists. But some here question the new governor’s commitment to see it through. “Let’s face it — privatizing the spaceport means selling it off and trying to remove any risk to the state,” said Rick Homans, who was appointed by Richardson as the facility’s ex-

ecutive director until Martinez asked him to step down. “The message would be that the state is not committed long term, and the new industry will look at other states where they can find a fully engaged partner.” New Mexico is not the only entity heavily invested. Sir Richard Branson’s Virgin Galactic has signed on to be the facility’s anchor tenant for 20 years and has dedicated hundreds of millions of dollars toward developing the technology. In 2005, amid considerable fanfare, Virgin began taking reservations for spaceflights — a ticket costs $200,000. Construction of the 110,000-squarefoot hangar and terminal is nearing completion. Virgin Galactic’s chief executive and president, George Whitesides, said in a recent interview that the company expects to launch commercial flights within two years.

Contract Continued from A1 Bereavement leave would increase from 24 to 40 hours. Employees would receive vacation time increases earlier in their tenures. And the union would like its new contract to preserve pay for employees who choose to be demoted in order to avoid being laid off. Loving said he wasn’t surprised at the initial offer made by the governor’s bargaining team, and he expected something regarding the 6 percent pickup to be on the table. The pickup refers to the percentage of salary employees must pay toward retirement. Many government agencies pay — or “pick up” — that contribution instead. Loving attributes this practice to a decision by state employees years ago to take a wage cut in exchange for the 6 percent pickup. “If we hadn’t traded the wage increase, it would have been added wages that would have compounded over time,” he said. “Economically it’s a moot point.” Both the elimination of the 6 percent pickup and the requirement that state employees share the cost of their health insurance coverage were recommendations from former Gov. Ted Kulongoski’s “Reset Cabinet,” which was formed to examine the state’s financial picture and suggest ways to improve it. Nick Smith, spokesman for House Republicans, said members of his caucus have a proposed bill that would reduce the 6 percent pickup to 3 percent. “We’ve been clear that in order to bring our spending under control, the governor — and if not the governor, the Legislature — should take action to rein in PERS costs,” Smith said. Smith said if the governor can eliminate the PERS pickup entirely, it would help the state’s taxpayers. But, he said, many Republicans believe a 3 percent cap on the PERS pickup would be a good compromise. Loving said he’s urging his members not to overreact to the governor’s initial proposal and would like to remind the public this is just the beginning of the process. The next meeting between state negotiators and the union is scheduled for March 3. Lauren Dake can be reached at 541-419-8074 or at ldake@bendbulletin.com.

Mr. Rogers’ neighborhood Rep. Hal Rogers has brought millions in federal money home to his district in eastern Kentucky, where grateful officials have named public works in his honor.

A lecture hall at the school of business at the University of the Cumberlands in Williamsburg.

KENTUCKY

Continued from A1 “I don’t think that they’ve had a road-to-Damascus moment” that produced a lasting conversion, said Steve Ellis, vice president of Taxpayers for Common Sense, a watchdog group that opposes earmarks. “It’s been forced upon them.” Rogers, 73, has been in Congress for 30 years. Young, 80, has been there for 40, and now chairs the defense appropriations subcommittee. In the past, overseeing congressional spending would have made them the Ed McMahons of Capitol Hill, passing out big checks to happy people. Now, it means supervising a historic spending reduction and a ban on millions in earmarks for folks back home. A Rogers spokeswoman said he is committed to sacrifice, “even if it affects his own back yard.” Young said that he, too, is on board. “I go by the rules,” he said in an interview. “Whether I agree with them or not.”

Freshmen demand cuts But so far, these two have been left behind by the Republican Party’s aggressive freshmen. Rogers had to redo this year’s budget proposal (called a “continuing resolution”) after the newcomers demanded deeper reductions. Young said Congress was likely to keep funding an alternative engine for a fighter plane. Then the freshmen helped kill the measure. In the end, Rogers seemed caught between the old ways and the new: He voted with Democrats to defeat a proposal from

the GOP’s conservative wing that would have cut $22 billion more from the budget. Then, when the House approved smaller but still severe cuts Saturday morning, he issued a statement trumpeting what “we” had done. The real spending debate is still to come: If the Senate passes a budget with smaller reductions, the House will have to compromise — or risk shutting down the government. Young and Rogers will help shape that debate. All this marks a sharp turn for both men, masters of the soft art of having things named after them. Congress’ all-time leader in this category is probably former senator Robert Byrd, D-W.Va., whose list runs more than 30, including a high school, a prison and two federal buildings. Rogers and Young both say they weren’t trying to follow Byrd’s example. “I never asked for any of those things to be named after me,” Young said in an interview. “And on occasion, when I knew they were planning it, I asked them not to.” But one doesn’t have to ask. Instead, the accepted custom is that a member of Congress directs federal spending to projects that local officials want. Those grateful officials slap the lawmaker’s name on a building or a bridge. When it works, voters reelect the name on the sign, giving the lawmaker precious seniority and the local officials a better advocate. Here in Kentucky, it works. “I don’t know what he’s done, but he’s done something right,” said Jewel Robinson, who owns a hair salon on Hal Rogers Parkway in Hazard, Ky. The parkway was named after Daniel Boone until the state renamed it for Rogers in 2003 because he se-

cured $13 million to end tolls on the road. Rogers, a former prosecutor, sponsored $175 million worth of earmarks from 2008 to 2010, placing him fourth out of 435 representatives, according to Taxpayers for Common Sense (Young was second, with $298 million). In an Appalachian region locked in poverty, Rogers made money the center of his political persona, saying that “a vision without funding is a hallucination.” Today, community college students sip coffee in the Harold Rogers Student Commons. Recruits fight fires at the Hal Rogers Fire Training Center. Every day in the summer, 1,100 people visit the water park — which the city named after Rogers in gratitude for $40 million he had sent to the area. And Rogers has won his past seven elections by an average of 62 percentage points. In a flower shop in downtown Williamsburg, florist Greg Prewitt said only one other man was as beloved — or as well known — in this region. “Everybody likes the colonel, because he brought the fried chicken,” Prewitt said. He was talking about Harland Sanders, a Kentucky icon who founded his fried-chicken empire a few miles up the road. “We look at Hal Rogers like we look at Colonel Sanders.”

‘Not a bridge to nowhere’ In Florida, Young also had built his career as a cash conduit. During campaigns, he ran newspaper ads mapping places he had helped with earmarks. And, where that money went, Young often saw his name appear.

MANAMA, Bahrain — The popular revolts shaking the Arab world have begun to shift the balance of power in the region, bolstering Iran’s position while weakening and unnerving its rival, Saudi Arabia, regional experts said. While it is far too soon to write the final chapter on the uprisings’ impact, Iran has already benefited from the ouster or undermining of Arab leaders who were its strong adversaries and has begun to project its growing influence, the analysts said. This week, Iran sent two warships through the Suez Canal for the first time since its revolution in 1979, and Egypt’s new military leaders allowed them to pass. Saudi Arabia, a U.S. ally and a Sunni nation that jousts with Shiite Iran for regional influence, has been shaken. King Abdullah on Wednesday signaled his concern by announcing a $10 billion increase in welfare spending to help young people marry, buy homes and open businesses, a gesture seen as trying to head off the kind of unrest that fueled protests around the region. Abdullah then met with the king of Bahrain, Hamad bin Isa al-Khalifa, to discuss ways to contain the political uprising by the Shiite majority there. The Sunni leaders in Saudi Arabia

and Bahrain accuse their Shiite populations of loyalty to Iran, a charge rejected by Shiites who say it is intended to stoke sectarian tensions and justify opposition to democracy. The uprisings are driven by domestic concerns. But they have already shredded a regional paradigm in which a trio of states aligned with the West supported engaging Israel and containing Israel’s enemies, including Hamas and Hezbollah, experts said. The pro-engagement camp of Egypt, Jordan and Saudi Arabia is now in tatters. Hosni Mubarak of Egypt has been forced to resign, King Abdullah of Jordan is struggling to control discontent in his kingdom and Saudi Arabia has been left alone to face a rising challenge to its regional role. “I think the Saudis are worried that they’re encircled — Iraq, Syria, Lebanon; Yemen is unstable; Bahrain is very uncertain,” said Alireza Nader, an expert in international affairs with the RAND Corp. “They worry that the region is ripe for Iranian exploitation. Iran has shown that it is very capable of taking advantage of regional instability.” “Iran is the big winner here,” said a regional adviser to the U.S. government who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the media.

Iran’s circumstances could change, experts cautioned, if it overplayed its hand or if popular Arab movements came to resent Iranian interference in the region. And it is by no means assured that pro-Iranian groups would dominate politics in Egypt, Tunisia or elsewhere. For now, Iran and Syria are emboldened. Qatar and Oman are tilting toward Iran, and Egypt, Tunisia, Bahrain and Yemen are in play. “If these ‘pro-American’ Arab political orders currently being challenged by significant protest movements become at all more representative of their populations, they will for sure become less enthusiastic about strategic cooperation with the United States,” Flynt Leverett and Hillary Mann Leverett, former National Security Council staff members, wrote in an email. They added that at the moment, Iran’s leaders saw that “the regional balance is shifting, in potentially decisive ways, against their American adversary and in favor of the Islamic Republic.” Iran’s standing is stronger in spite of its challenges at home, with a troubled economy, high unemployment and a determined political opposition. The United States may also face challenges in pressing its case against Iran’s nuclear programs, some experts asserted.

The University of South Florida has received more than $340 million in earmarks through Young over the past decade. Using the money, engineers developed torpedo-like robotic “gliders” that last year detected BP oil plumes in the Gulf of Mexico. Now, the university’s marine science college is housed in the C.W. Bill Young Marine Science Complex in downtown St. Petersburg. Young also secured tens of millions in federal money to replace an aging bridge in the beach town of Treasure Island that city officials said the town of 7,500 could not afford on its own. When construction was finished, city officials opened the C.W. Bill Young Drawbridge. “I’m against earmarks, but I like my own,” said island resident John Kerry, 64, a wine consultant. On a recent day, he ate sushi on the island’s beach, listening to conservative host Dennis Prager on a portable radio. “There’s a difference between our earmark and others. It’s not a bridge to nowhere in Alaska.” If Rogers and Young follow

through on their promises to cut spending, the real test could come in the next election cycle. Can they rebrand themselves after decades in Congress? And, if they aren’t funnels, what are they? “In this current environment, the citizens know this can’t continue. And if that means the Treasure Island Bridge doesn’t get the right retrofit, well, that’s what that means,” said Kris Gionet, who organizes the Pinellas Patriots, a tea party group in Young’s district. But, sitting in a customer-less furniture store in downtown Williamsburg, Ky., appliance repairman Herschel Roaden, 82, said he thought Rogers was being “double-faced.” The congressman, he said, can claim credit for cutting budgets while his name adorns government-financed projects.

Now, Roaden said, “they ought to name that stuff taxpayers’” water park, “because we’re paying.” The question was put to Rogers: Should we call it the American Taxpayers’ Family Entertainment Center? Rogers didn’t respond. Instead, his spokeswoman said in an e-mail that it isn’t Rogers’ call to make. After all, he didn’t ask for these honors in the first place. Said spokeswoman Jennifer Hing: “These decisions were always made — and will continue to be made — on a local level.”

Bend GDP declined in 2009 By Ed Merriman

B U S I N E SS IN BRIEF

The gross domestic product fell in 2009 nationwide, statewide and in the Bend metropolitan area, but despite the overall declines, several sectors of the Bend economy were on a growth trend heading into 2009, according to a Bureau of Economic Analysis report released Wednesday. “Real U.S. GDP by metropolitan area (at $12.6 trillion) declined 2.4 percent in 2009 after declining by 0.4 percent in 2008 (when U.S. real GDP was $12.8 trillion),” the BEA reported.

“The economic decline was widespread as real GDP declined in 239 of 366 metropolitan statistical areas, led by national declines in durable goods manufacturing, construction, and professional and business services,” according to the report, which said construction declines adversely affected metropolitan areas in the Rocky Mountain, Southwest, Southeast and Far West regions the most. Growth accelerated in 70 metropolitan areas where natural resource and mining industries are concentrated, including Oklahoma City, Okla., and Casper, Wyo., which

had the fastest real GDP growth in the nation at 22.4 percent, according to the BEA. Real GDP is based on earnings by industry in each of the nation’s metropolitan areas, reflecting the value of goods and services produced in each area, and the cumulative values by state and nationwide, according to the BEA. Oregon’s real GDP fell from nearly $170 billion in 2008 to $165 billion in 2009, according to the report. For the Bend metropolitan statistical area, which includes all of Deschutes County, the BEA reported the real GDP declined from nearly $6.3 billion in 2008 to about $6 billion in 2009. See GDP / B4

EPA rule changes clear way for biomass facilities By Ed Merriman The Bulletin

Efforts to reduce domestic dependence on foreign oil advanced Monday under Environmental Protection Agency rule changes easing restrictions on operating biomass boilers that convert wood wastes from forest thinning projects, agricultural wastes and other biomass materials into renewable energy, according to government officials. The changes modify EPA boiler emission standards proposed by the agency in June that were so strict they appeared to doom biomass plants across the country, including one just completed in John Day with $4 million in federal stimulus funds. Biomass proponents and members of Oregon’s congressional delegation argued that the rules wrongly lumped biomass boilers that emit nontoxic emissions with large coal-burning boilers that emit hazardous pollutants and threatened to kill Oregon’s fledgling biomass industry before it got off the ground. “Forest product wastes, such as trimmings from door and window plants, would be considered biomass and not solid waste, and therefore would not be forced to meet the more stringent incinerator standards for solid waste-burning units,” Tom Towsley, Oregon director of communications for U.S. Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., said Wednesday. See Biomass / B3

Solar projects green, but at what cost? Handful of lawsuits challenge companies on environmental grounds By Todd Woody New York Times News Service

SAN FRANCISCO — Just weeks after regulators approved the last of nine multibillion-dollar solar thermal power plants to be built in the Southern California desert, a storm of lawsuits and the resurgence of an older solar technology are clouding the future of the nascent industry. The litigation, which seeks to block construction of five of the solar thermal projects, underscores the growing risks of building large-scale renewable energy plants in environmentally delicate areas. On Jan. 25, for instance, Solar Millennium withdrew its 16-month-old license application for a 250-megawatt solar station called Ridgecrest, citing regulators’ concerns over the project’s impact on the Mohave ground squirrel.

“There’s no good reason to go into these pristine wilderness areas and build huge solar farms, and less reason for the taxpayers to be subsidizing it.” — Cory Briggs, a lawyer representing an American Indian group that has sued the U.S. Interior Department and the Bureau of Land Management to stop five solar thermal plants At peak output, the five licensed solar thermal projects being challenged would power more than 2 million homes, create

thousands of construction jobs and help the state meet aggressive renewable energy mandates. The projects are backed by California’s biggest utilities, top state officials and the Obama administration. But conservation, labor and American Indian groups are challenging the projects on environmental grounds. The lawsuits, coupled with a broad plunge in prices for energy from competing power sources, threaten the ability of developers to secure expiring federal loan guarantees and private financing to establish the projects. Only one developer so far, BrightSource Energy, has obtained a loan guarantee and begun construction. Like so many of this state’s troubles, the industry’s problems are rooted in real estate.

Airlines are raising fares as oil prices rise By Jad Mouawad New York Times News Service

Airline passengers are definitely going to feel sticker shock this year. As the carriers have tried to keep up with rapidly rising oil prices, they have already increased their fares four times since the start of the year, compared with only three increases for all of 2010. The airlines have also raised some of their fees, imposed summer peak-time surcharges and added hefty fuel surcharges on international flights. Even traditional low-cost carriers that have long undercut their rivals are joining in. Southwest Airlines, for example, which usually resists industrywide fare increases, participated in several rounds, including one this week. See Airfare / B3

The cool factor for smart phone applications has been getting geekier — and cheekier. Chase kicked off a Super Bowl ad in most markets to highlight how easy it is to use a Chase app to deposit a check. The guy gets up from his easy chair, puts on a hat and coat, gets his phone and stops to take a picture of a check to deposit it. He never leaves the house. This year, the Internal Reve-

PERSONAL FINANCE nue Service decided to go for its own gizmo gimmick by rolling out an IRS tax app. Sure, there are apps to check the weather, calculate your carbon footprint and play Angry Birds. But now it’s cool to say there’s an app for dull financial services, too.

“I go on at least a couple times a day,” said Shane Brion, Chase bank branch manager in Ypsilanti, Mich. He has used the IRS app to check when his tax refund would arrive. He uses his bank’s app to track spending. “I always check it in the morning, to make sure checks have cleared, keep an eye on the balance,” Brion said. Everybody has some sort of application, including the Internal Revenue Service. See Apps / B3

Security, of course, is a worry. Chase stresses that it has robust encryption technology and that check images would not remain

on the mobile phone. “It’ll be posted to the account, but the app itself will automatically log you out, typically after five minutes of inactivity,” Brion said. Will you be able to send clear photos of checks or W-2 forms (as would be needed with TurboTax SnapTax)? The quality could depend on the model of your phone or how you take the picture. “It’ll prompt you if you can’t get a clear reading of a check,” Brion said. “I’ve never run into this issue.” Ben Woolsey, director of marketing and consumer research for CreditCards.com, said that, in general, financial apps are “very safe and secure.” Consumers, though, should be cautious, particularly if they receive e-mails. Do not click on attachments promoting free, potentially bogus apps. “I wouldn’t respond to any apps that come to you — and say ‘Please download me,’” Woolsey said. Ondrej Krehel, information security officer for Identity Theft 911, said consumers should figure out how much they want to do when it comes to financial services from their phone or PC. “Good security comes in layers,” Krehel said. “We would say that data on smart phones is less secure than on a PC, because there is just not enough awareness about smart phone security.” Some apps can give away your phone’s locations to outside companies, too. Would the IRS app be used to give out any personal details to others? Track your location? “Absolutely not,” said Luis Garcia, IRS spokesman. Ah, but will that app do your taxes for you? I guess we all know the answer to that one.

extended their losses on Wednesday, after Tuesday’s steep declines. Airline stocks are down 11 percent just this week. The airlines have few options to deal with their rising costs. Most carriers were already hedging some of their fuel purchases to protect against sudden price increases. They can also look for more fuel-efficient planes, but that requires billions of dollars in investments and takes years. So far, thanks to growing demand from both business and leisure passengers, the airlines have not had any trouble selling seats. Because they have not added much new capacity as the economy

has picked up, their planes are still flying full, especially during peak hours. And as airlines continue to find customers for their most expensive fares, analysts said, they are reducing the number of their cheapest seats — and even those are not so cheap anymore. “Airlines are raising their fares because, right now, they think they can,” said Jeff Streabler, a strategist at RBS. “People will actually buy the tickets at those fares.” In January, the cheapest round-trip fare from any of the top 50 airports in the country averaged $367 — 10 percent higher

more apps for the iPad, too. Offering financial services via a mobile device isn’t new. Back in 2000 and 2001, some brokerages offered access via the old Palm Pilots and PDAs. But old hardware had green screens, not full color, and the older mobile devices were clunkers to use. And many people weren’t eager to pick up a mobile phone to check stock prices during the bear market from 2000 through 2002. The popularity of the iPhone sparked interest in mobile applications in the financial services industry in 2010, according to Corporate Insight. Morningstar.com, which tracks mutual fund performance, has free mobile apps for the iPhone, BlackBerry and Android platforms. H&R Block brags that its free Tax Central App was the top finance app for more than a week last tax season on iTunes. Now, the IRS has an app for that, too. Taxpayers who file electronically can use that app within 72 hours after the IRS acknowledges receipt of their tax return. If you file a paper return, you’d have to wait three to four weeks. The same time frame applies if you go online to www.irs .gov and click on “Where’s My Refund?” You’re going to need to enter a Social Security number. The IRS says the Social Security number is masked and encrypted. You’re not filing tax returns using that IRS app. But the TurboTax SnapTax app does allow you to file taxes by smart phone.

Continued from B1 The IRS allows smart phone app users to get updates on their income tax refunds — and enter their e-mail address so that they can receive daily advice. Apple users can download the free IRS2Go application at the Apple App Store; Android users can go to the Android Marketplace. Brion, who is studying for an MBA in finance at the University of Michigan-Dearborn, does his own taxes. And he likes using that IRS app for free daily tips, including advice on education credits and other assorted tax tips. His wife, Mirya, has a child care business. The picturetaking feature with his Chase app comes in handy to deposit checks from her customers.

More to come Chase came out with its QuickDeposit feature for checks in 2010. USAA — which serves the military community — launched the industry’s first mobile check deposit app in August 2009. Other big-name banks likely will offer picture-taking deposits for checks this year, said James McGovern, vice president of consulting services for Corporate Insight, which tracks Web usage for banks, brokers and other financial service companies. Everybody isn’t going to be taking pictures of their checks. Many of us do not even own smart phones. But banking customers who travel or aren’t able to get to a bank branch can take advantage of the convenience. In 2011, McGovern expects more financial firms to offer apps for Android smart phones. Some brokerages may offer

Security concerns

Airfare Continued from B1 While the rising ticket prices have matched the steady increase in fuel costs in recent months, the turmoil in the Middle East has sent oil prices sharply higher. That surge now threatens to derail the airline industry’s fragile recovery and may lead to even more surcharges. At today’s prices, fuel accounts for about 40 percent of the industry’s costs, up from about 30 percent just last year. As a result of the uncertainty in the oil markets, airline stocks

Solar

Smart phone security

Continued from B1 After President George W. Bush ordered public lands to be opened to renewable energy development and California passed a law in 2006 to reduce carbon emissions, scores of developers staked lease claims on nearly a million acres of Mojave Desert land. The government-owned land offered affordable, wide-open spaces and the abundant sunshine needed by solar thermal plants, which use huge arrays of mirrors to heat liquids to create steam that drives electricity-generating turbines. But many of the areas planned for solar development — including the five projects being challenged — are in fragile landscapes and are home to desert tortoises, bighorn sheep and other protected flora and fauna. The government sped through some of the

Smart phone users pay less attention to the security of their phones than they do to their PCs. Ondrej Krehel, of Identity Theft 911, said consumers too often do not protect the phone with a password; they do not encrypt the data on their phones; and they store personal information such as bank account numbers, e-mails, Social Security numbers, including those of their family members, and other confidential information. • Be sure to password-protect a smart phone. • Users should make it a practice to delete their private information from the cache of the smart phone. Many do not even know that such settings exist, Krehel said. Criminals can then use data-recovery techniques to obtain sensitive data from the smart phone, if stolen. • A hacking incident also can take place when a malicious SMS message can compromise a vulnerable iPhone. See this report: http://news. cnet.com/8301-27080_310299378-245.html. • Avoid using applications that provide direct access to bank accounts or even socialnetworking accounts and/or store your login credentials. • Avoid using unsecured wireless connections (rather than the phone network connection) to access sensitive sites like banking or other sites. While you may be saving minutes on your data plan, Krehel said, you are also potentially exposing your transactions to piracy. • Read your statements to monitor any odd activity.

Biomass Continued from B1 “Biomass plants would not be required to control for mercury or other pollutants not normally present.” Towsley said the rule changes announced Monday would allow biomass to be burned in a variety of boilers, such as the one in the plant completed in December in John Day by Prineville-based Ochoco Lumber Co. That would allow the plant to operate and produce energy. Under the rule changes, small residential and commercial biomass boilers that generate heat or energy for homes, schools, businesses or government office buildings, airports and other similar uses “would essentially be allowed without requiring any additional pollution controls,” Towsley said. Larger units, such as the biomass plants built to generate energy from wood wastes at paper mills, “would still be required to have some additional pollution devices,” Towsley said. In a letter to Wyden dated Feb. 23, the EPA administrator, Lisa Jackson, said the rule changes reflect “a clear technical distinction between boilers that burn coal and boilers that burn biomass.” Jackson’s letter says the rule changes provide “additional flexibility for existing biomass boilers” by increasing carbon monoxide limits for biomass boilers and other measures designed to reduce compliance costs, while maintaining restrictions on lead, hydrogen sulfide, mercury and other emissions that pose a danger to human health.

that the average of $333 for the same time last year, according to FareCompare.com, a consumer airline research website. Rick Seaney, FareCompare’s chief executive, said each increase in the last three months had averaged $5 to $12 for the least expensive tickets. But the rise in fuel prices once again hangs over the industry’s profits. Oil prices jumped more than $13 a barrel this week, rising above $99 a barrel in New York on Wednesday, after the violent uprising in Libya, a major oil producer. In London, Brent crude futures rose to $111 a barrel.

required environmental reviews, and opponents are challenging those reviews as inadequate. “There’s no good reason to go into these pristine wilderness areas and build huge solar farms, and less reason for the taxpayers to be subsidizing it,” said Cory Briggs, a lawyer representing an American Indian group that has sued the U.S. Interior Department and the Bureau of Land Management to stop five of the solar thermal plants. “The impacts to Native American culture and the environment are extraordinary.” Solar thermal developers never expected to run into such difficulties. But federal law requires projects proposed for public lands to undergo extensive environmental review and allows citizens to sue to enforce those laws. Three of the four solar thermal power plants that have escaped legal challenge are planned for private land.

“Changes such as those listed above render the issued standards about half as costly to meet as the proposed (June rules) would have been. The issued standards nonetheless will protect enormous numbers of American adults and children from harm by reducing their exposure to air toxics such as mercury and lead, which have adverse effects on IQ, learning and memory,” according to an excerpt from Jackson’s letter. The EPA estimates that even with the easing of rules governing biomass boilers, manufacturing and installing pollution-control equipment required under the new standards will create around 2,200 new jobs nationwide. “I am proud of the work that the EPA has done to craft protective, sensible standards for controlling hazardous air pollution from boilers and process heaters,” Jackson wrote. “The standards reflect what industry has told the agency about the practical reality of operating these units.” Because the revised rules are substantially different from those the public had an opportunity to comment on last year, Jackson said the EPA will seek comments “from members of the public who would like the agency to reconsider aspects of the standards that have changed significantly.” Towsley said existing plants will not have to comply with the rule for at least three years, “so if there are further changes in the rule, they will not be required to spend money for compliance measures for several years.” Ed Merriman can be reached at 541-617-7820 or emerriman@bendbulletin.com.

Apple expected to unveil new, lighter iPad at event By David Sarno and Jessica Guynn Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — Apple Inc. will probably unveil a new iPad that could keep its name carved firmly at the top of the tablet computer market. The company is holding an event next week in San Francisco at which it is widely expected to show off a lighter and sleeker iPad that could maintain its massive lead in the multibillion-dollar tablet industry it pioneered. The media invitation for the possible iPad 2 rollout was sent as Apple shareholders met at

GDP Continued from B1 Figures for GDP by industry released Wednesday only show some data for 2009, with most sectors down, but a few showed signs of improvement heading into 2009. The BEA reports show several sectors of the Bend economy continued to trend upward despite the recession that gripped the country during all of 2008 and the first half of 2009. These sectors included forestry, fishing and related industries, which rose from $27 million real GDP in 2007 to nearly $29 million in 2008 and were continuing upward in 2009; electrical equipment and appliance manufacturing, which rose from $22.5 million in 2007 to $30 million in 2008 (with no figures for 2009); and broadcasting and telecommunications, which grew from $150 million in 2007 to nearly $181 million in 2008 (with no figures for 2009). Among the biggest gainers were government, which grew from $550 million in 2007 to $585 million in 2008 and up to $615 million in 2009; education services, which dipped in 2007 but rose from $32.5 million in 2008 to $34 million in 2009; and health care and social services, which rose from $622 million in 2007 to $651 million in 2008 and continued rising to nearly $685 million in 2009. Several other sectors showed slight gains in real GDP from 2007 to 2008 before flattening out in 2009, including banking, finance, insurance and professional and business services, according to the BEA reports. Private industry GDP for the Bend area peaked at around $5.8 billion in 2007 and fell below $5.7 billion in 2008, and continued to fall to $5.4 billion in 2009. Total Bend-area GDP for all industries, public and private, topped out at about $6.45 billion in 2007, dropped to $6.35 billion in 2008 and continued falling to just over $6 billion in 2009, according to the BEA.

Ford recalling 150,000 F-150s to fix air bags

By Ken Thomas The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Under government pressure, Ford Motor Co. said Wednesday it will recall nearly 150,000 F-150 pickup trucks to fix air bags that could deploy without warning, a fraction of the vehicles the government contends should be called back and repaired. The recall covers trucks from the 2005- 06 model years in the United States and Canada for what the Dearborn, Mich., company calls a “relatively low risk” of the air bag deploying inadvertently. The government, however, has urged Ford to recall 1.3 million F-150s from the 200406 model years, citing 77 injuries from air bags deploying accidentally. The recall is being closely watched because Ford’s F-Series pickup truck is the best-selling vehicle in America. Ford’s leaders have made

in succession planning but that requiring disclosure would divulge confidential information and potentially harm the company’s ability to recruit and retain executives. The shareholder meeting came a week before the March 2 event at which Apple is expected to launch the next version of its iPad Since it launched the first iPad last April, Apple has sold more than 15 million units, and analysts expect the company to sell 30 million this year — or about two-thirds of all tablets projected to be sold globally.

safety a cornerstone of the company’s revitalization, but the truck recall represents the latest safety issue to confront the automaker. Ford has recalled more than 600,000 Windstar minivans in the U.S. and Canada since August to fix rear axles that can corrode and break, an issue still under investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. During the past decade, Ford recalled more than 10 million vehicles. A Transportation Department spokeswoman said the agency was reviewing Ford’s response to see if the F-150 recall was adequate. If the government determines that the recall is too limited, it could seek a rare public hearing to decide whether Ford should widen its safety action.

REDMOND â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Ridgeview High School will be the name of the Redmond School Districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s second high school when it opens in time for the 2012-13 academic year. In a 3-2 vote, the Redmond School Board selected the name from a list of three finalists during its Wednesday meeting. A volunteer committee picked through about 150 suggestions from the public, trimming the list down to three finalists. In order of the committeeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s preference, the finalists were: Ridgeview, South Redmond and Grandview. Soon after the district announced the finalists, comments from the public began arriving at the district. Eventually, more than 200 arrived, with about half rejecting all of the names and the rest showing a preference for one of the finalists. Little of the negative comments were apparent during Wednesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s meeting, though. Three people spoke about the names, each picking a different one as a favorite. Ed Boero, a Redmond city councilor, said the name mattered little in the end. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think the most important part is not what we name the school, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s that we built the school,â&#x20AC;? Boero said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;(The school) is an asset to community. We can be proud of it. Kids are going to get a great education there.â&#x20AC;? See Ridgeview / C5

MADRAS â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Jefferson County Treasurer Deena Goss has been issued a public apology by the Jefferson County Board of Commissioners, which declared itself satisfied that she committed no criminal violations against the county. Released on Wednesday, the commissionersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; statement says that Goss was in violation of state law regarding investment thresholds, but corrected the problem on her own. â&#x20AC;&#x153;After careful consideration and extensive investigation, the Board of County Commissioners find that no criminal violations against Jefferson County were committed by Deena Goss,â&#x20AC;? reads the statement, which all three commissioners signed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Deena acknowledges the investment portfolio was more heavily invested in corporate bonds than statute allows. Deena corrected the investment ratio as soon as that issue became apparent to her. The Board of County Commissioners regrets and apologizes for the impact this issue has had on Deena, her family and the community.â&#x20AC;? After the meeting, Goss called the outcome â&#x20AC;&#x153;a huge win.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m very pleased with the public statement,â&#x20AC;?

Commission Chair Mike Ahern said he was simply ready to move on from the issues the board had been addressing with Gossâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; office. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We will move on and we will make improvements,â&#x20AC;? Ahern said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I stand by the decision to have this enter public discourse. But of course we are sorry about the hardships on her and her family.

he Bend-La Pine Schoolsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; boundary advisory committee on Wednesday cut down to three the middle-school boundary change options it will take to the public next week. Two of the options focus primarily on westside students who attend High Lakes or Miller elementaries, while one option is focused on students who currently attend Pine Ridge Elementary. In all three of the scenarios, students from Ensworth Elementary are affected, and two of the scenarios affect a small portion of Buckingham students. The boundary committee was formed in December to solve overcrowding at Cascade Middle School, which has more than 900 students enrolled this year. If left alone, the school is projected to grow to 975 students in coming years. At last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s meeting, the group came up with six possible scenarios for shifting students to even out middle-school enrollment. On Wednesday, the group whittled it down to three options, which the district will take to three public forums next week. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re painting with a broad brush here to try to get the right orders Forums set of magnitude in those Bend-La Pine schools while hopefully Schools will host still giving parents and three public forums students lots of options next week on the to take advantage of proposed changes area change requests,â&#x20AC;? to middle-school Deputy Superintendent boundaries.

And the third option would take all High Lakes students who live north of Portland Avenue and send them to Pilot Butte. The next step will be public forums held at High Lakes, Pine Ridge and Ensworth elementaries next week. At those, the public is invited to share thoughts and opinions on the three options. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We will just collect as much input as we can,â&#x20AC;? Rexford said. Once the forums are complete, the committee will select an option and make recommendations on allowing students to stay in their current schools, called grandfathering. The committee will also determine whether any high-school boundary changes are necessary in conjunction with the changes to the middle-school boundaries.

La Pine may absorb service districts By Hillary Borrud

If you go What: Public hearing to consider whether the city of La Pine should consolidate water and sewer district services provided within the La Pine city boundary into the city government When: 6 p.m. March 8 Where: La Pine Senior Activity Center, 16450 Victory Way, La Pine

The Bulletin

LA PINE â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Officials in Oregonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s youngest city, La Pine, said Wednesday they will launch an effort to annex two special districts that have provided water and sewer services since before the city incorporated in 2006. The La Pine City Council decided Wednesday night to schedule a hearing March 8 on plans to take over the La Pine Water District and the La Pine Special Sewer District. Folding

the districts into the city government will increase efficiency because the entities will be able to share workers and coordinate the replacement of infrastructure to avoid tearing up cuts multiple times, City Manager Rick Allen said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The benefit is, when the sewer and water folks arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t putting in water and sewer lines because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a cold, snowy morning, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a public works department, and they can plow snow,â&#x20AC;? Allen said.

Mayor Ken Mulenex said consolidating water and sewer services with other city services would also make La Pine friendlier for businesses, because business people could find all the information they need at one place. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The way itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s set up now, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not business-friendly,â&#x20AC;? Mulenex said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They have to go to water, find out whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going on; go to sewer, find out whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going on. Then, they have to come to the city.â&#x20AC;? See La Pine / C2

C2 Thursday, February 24, 2011 â&#x20AC;˘ THE BULLETIN

La Pine Continued from C1 The La Pine Industrial Group has written a letter in favor of the city providing water and sewer services, citing the â&#x20AC;&#x153;economies of scaleâ&#x20AC;? the city could realize through consolidated services. Councilor Don Greiner said taking over the districts will cut down on duplicate expenses, such as attorney fees. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re both fighting each other, but the same people are paying both sides,â&#x20AC;? Greiner said, referring to La Pine residents who pay the city tax rate and water and sewer rates. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think it will be beneficial to all involved, which is the citizens of this city.â&#x20AC;? The districtsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; board members initially opposed the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proposal to take them over, but they are now ready to gradually relinquish control, said Donna Zigler, operations manager for the water district, earlier Wednesday. A facilitator, Outside Insights, of Bend, is now working with the city and two districts to help move the process forward. The three agencies are splitting the cost of the $1,725 contract, Zigler said. A meeting with the facilitator is scheduled for 5 p.m. Monday. When residents voted in 2006 to incorporate La Pine as a city, the measure they approved stated: â&#x20AC;&#x153;The existing sewer and the water special districts located almost entirely within the boundary are likely to be dissolved with the City taking over those issues.â&#x20AC;? In mid-January, the La Pine City Council sent a letter to the districts stating the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s intent to annex them and asking district board members to cooperate. Sewer and water district board members responded in a Feb. 2 letter that said, in part, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The districts do not at this time wish to grant such consent.â&#x20AC;? On Wednesday, Zigler said the districts probably should have said they simply werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t ready to hand over control â&#x20AC;&#x153;at this time.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;No oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ever said it wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t happen,â&#x20AC;? Zigler said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The boards said it will happen. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a matter of timing. The City Councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got a pretty full plate at this time. The board feels it should be done in a timely fashion, over a long period of time, so we have all the iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dotted and tâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s are crossed and the (City) Council is at a point where they can take it on.â&#x20AC;? Asked when board members want the city to take over, Zigler said they have discussed a transfer date of June 30, 2012. That is six months later than the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s deadline set out in its January letter. Hillary Borrud can be reached at 617-7829 or at hborrud@bendbulletin.com.

SANTA MONICA, Calif. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Four American yachters killed by Somali pirates early Tuesday were longtime sailors whose passion for the high seas outweighed any fear of the risks, friends said. The yachtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s owners, Jean and Scott Adam, of Marina del Rey, near Los Angeles, along with Bob Riggle and Phyllis Macay, of Seattle, were shot to death after pirates boarded their yacht Friday and took them hostage several hundred miles south of Oman. The pirates shot the four after firing a rocket-propelled grenade at a U.S. warship, one of several vessels tracking the hijacked boat over the weekend. Fifteen men were captured. Friends, family and fellow sailors remembered the four as adventurous, with a zest for life, but also as meticulous planners who were well aware of the dangers of the open seas. The Adams had been sailing full-time on their 58-foot yacht, the Quest, since December 2004 after retiring. They often travelled with friends, and on this trip were joined by Riggle and Macay. Macay and Riggle had left Seattle on Riggleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sailboat for a world voyage in September 2007, but in recent years had

been crewing on separate boats, said Macayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s friend Cynthia Kirkham, of Seattle. The two periodically returned home on visits, she said, adding that Macay had stayed with her last June. Mariners were warned about traveling around the Horn of Africa because of the risk of pirate attacks. The four sailors had traveled with a large flotilla to stay safe from pirates earlier in the trip, but they had left the group when the attack occurred, Macayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s niece, Nina Crossland, told reporters in South San Francisco.

Singles yacht club â&#x20AC;&#x153;My aunt is a very smart and avid sailor,â&#x20AC;? said Crossland, visibly shaken and holding back tears as she spoke to reporters Tuesday morning. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think she was smart enough and planned ahead and prepared to not be in this type of situation.â&#x20AC;? Macay, 59, was wounded but alive when Navy SEALs boarded the Quest after the shooting, but she died later, her niece said. Riggle â&#x20AC;&#x153;would never do anything to jeopardize Phyllis,â&#x20AC;? said Hank Curci, a friend and fellow member of the Seattle Singles Yacht Club. Joe Grande, another member, said the deaths were like losing family to those who knew the pair.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Great sailors, good people. They were doing what they wanted to do, but thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s small comfort in the face of this,â&#x20AC;? Grande said.

Seattle veterinarian Riggle was a relief veterinarian for the Seattle Animal Shelter for the past eight years or so, spaying and neutering adopted animals, said director Don Jordan. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a man of many words but he was a kind-hearted individual with a great passion for animals and animal welfare,â&#x20AC;? Jordan said. Riggle once took a colleagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s family sailing when their daughter was diagnosed with cancer to get their mind off their troubles. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That was just a small indicator about how he treated people,â&#x20AC;? he said. Macay was vice president for training and development for Profitability Consulting Group, an adviser to retail furniture stores based in Hillsborough, N.C. Macay, who never married, took a sabbatical about three years ago.

O Ashland company is designing extreme Former camper cold-weather gear for special ops forces says Adventists knew of abuse

By Hannah Guzik Ashland Daily Tidings

ASHLAND — In a building on Oak Street, Jim Trombly is designing protective clothing that will allow U.S. special operations forces to survive in temperatures reaching 50 below zero. The product line director for Massif Mountain Gear traveled to northern Minnesota during a storm last month to test the gear alongside troops. “Unfortunately it wasn’t that cold — it got down to zero degrees, but that wasn’t quite cold enough,” he said. “So they’ve extended the testing to Kodiak, Alaska.” Last year, Massif was awarded a military contract to create a set of pants, a vest and a jacket that will allow special operations forces to survive in extremely cold weather, said executive vice president Chris Wasgatt. The company began designing fire-resistant clothing for the military in 2006, but this is the first time Massif has been asked by the Department of Defense to create nonfire-resistant clothing, he said. “Jim comes from the outdoor industry and he’s applying those principles to military garments, which hadn’t really been done before,” Wasgatt said. “He showed them and they’re like, ‘We love you.’ So now the head of all special operations command calls Jim on his cell phone and asks him, ‘What do you think we should do here?’”

Positive tests The Layer 7 Protective Clothing Uniform Puffy looks like a lightweight camouflage snowsuit, but it also compacts into a small ball that can easily fit in a soldier’s pack. “The testing has gone exceptionally well so far,” Trombly said. “These garments are 30 percent lighter and 25 percent more packable than what the guys have today.” The company began working on the project last summer and is finalizing designs now. Massif expects the Department of Defense to approve the final design in May or June, so the gear can be manufactured this summer and be in soldiers’ packs next winter, Trombly said. The Special Operations Delta Force will wear the Massif garments, as will U.S. Navy SEALs, U.S. Air Force Pararescue Jump-

Jim Trombly, product line director, holds Massif Mountain Gear garments on Monday in Ashland.

“What I tell people is, ‘Regardless of your politics, we all want our troops safe and there wasn’t anything that was safe out there before.’” — Chris Wasgatt, executive vice president, Massif Mountain Gear ers and U.S. Army Rangers, Wasgatt said. The company’s headquarters are at 498 Oak St. A team of 15 developers and designers creates each garment in-house. “We’re a think tank from fabric to garment,” Wasgatt said. Then the prototypes are put together by sewing professionals who work behind one of more than a dozen sewing machines in the building. The company is always looking to hire more sewing professionals, because there appears to be a shortage in the Rogue Valley, Wasgatt said. Next, the prototypes undergo a first round of testing in Ashland. “We take them up to Mount Ashland and beat them up, and

then throw them in our killer washing machine,” Wasgatt said. The washing machine runs continuously, so the company can see what a garment looks like after 300 washes, he said. Massif works with the military to do more testing in other locations, such as Alaska or Afghanistan, and makes any modifications necessary. When the final designs are approved, they are manufactured off-site in a variety of locations, including Portland, New York, North Carolina and Puerto Rico, Wasgatt said. The Layer 7 gear will be manufactured in Kentucky through the government’s National Institute for the Severely Handicapped, which creates jobs for people with disabilities, Wasgatt said.

Other contracts Massif, founded in 2001 in Ashland, also has contracts with the Bureau of Land Management and other groups to design protective clothing, particularly for firefighters, he said. Between 2000 and 2009, Massif secured $13.8 million in military contracts. The company has designed a number of fire-

O B Judge: Raise power bills to fund dam removal GRANTS PASS — An administrative law judge has recommended granting PacifiCorp a temporary 2-percent rate increase for its 45,000 electric customers in California to help pay the costs of removing dams on the Klamath River. The proposed ruling filed Tuesday will be taken up by the California Public Utilities Commission after a month of public comment. The $13.8 million raised by the surcharge over nine years would go into trust funds against the day federal authorities approve removing the Portland-based utility’s four hydroelectric dams on the Klamath River in Oregon and California. Projected to begin in 2020, removing the dams is part of a landmark agreement to help salmon, give farmers better assurances of irrigation and restore the ecology of the Klamath basin. Oregon authorities have approved a similar surcharge.

biphenyls — a carcinogen and suspected neurotoxin widely used for decades as an insulator in machinery and electrical equipment. A Pacific Recycling official denied his company had any liability for the allegations in the federal lawsuit. Separately, Pacific Recycling has been fined by the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality for PCB contamination at its waste metal yard at another site in the Eugene area.

Bus driver cited for speeding in Portland PORTLAND — TriMet has suspended a bus driver who was stopped by police for going 57 mph in a 45-mph zone. Police say the 48-year-old driver was cited for speeding, careless driving, failure to maintain the lane, tailgating and driving a commercial vehicle without a valid license. His license had expired. The Oregonian reports there were no passengers on the bus at the time Monday night, and the driver was returning to the garage.

Waste oil storage firm sues recycler over PCBs Salem weighs closing EUGENE — The operator of a schools, firing teachers waste oil storage facility near Eugene has sued a metal recycling yard over toxic PCB contamination that has shut down the storage site for months. The (Eugene) Register-Guard reports that Oil Re-Refining Co. of Portland is seeking $5 million plus cleanup costs from Pacific Recycling because of contamination by PCBs — polychlorinated

SALEM — The Salem-Keizer School District is considering closing some small schools and cutting 400 teaching positions next year to offset a $55 million budget shortfall. Superintendent Sandy Husk presented options Tuesday night to a budget committee. The (Salem) Statesman Jour-

nal reports the cuts could be worse. The budget plans assume the Legislature will adopt a school fund higher than the one proposed by the governor. It also assumes employee unions will agree to reduce pay and benefits by at least $11 million.

Funeral slated for 26-year-old Marine PORTLAND — The funeral for an Oregon Marine killed in Afghanistan will be held Saturday in Medford. Twenty-sixyear-old Matthew DeYoung, of Talent, died last week supporting combat operations. His mother, Teddi DeYoung, told The Oregonian her son was born a Marine because she had served in the Navy and her husband Bruce served in the Marines. Matthew DeYoung was assigned to a unit based at Camp Lejeune. He was deployed to Iraq in 2006 and 2007 and was sent to Afghanistan late last year.

14 pounds of pot seized in I-5 stop SALEM — Oregon State Police say a trooper found more than 14 pounds of marijuana in the vehicle of a Covington, Wash., man stopped for speeding on Interstate 5 near Salem. Lt. Gregg Hastings says the seized marijuana was worth about $35,000. Hastings says 51-year-old Kelly Dean Scannell was arrested Monday for unlawful possession and distribution of a controlled substance. — From wire reports

resistant soft-shell jackets and long-sleeve shirts, which are used by thousands of troops, including those in Iraq and Afghanistan, Wasgatt said. The clothing, made of a lightweight, fire-resistant fabric Massif developed, has saved lives by protecting troops from being burned in explosions from improvised explosive devices, or roadside bombs, he said. The company has photos of soldiers whose skin has been spared burns in the places covered by the Massif clothing. “What I tell people is, ‘Regardless of your politics, we all want our troops safe and there wasn’t anything that was safe out there before,”’ Wasgatt said.

PORTLAND — A former member of a youth camping group run by the Seventh-day Adventist Church is suing the church, claiming he continued to suffer sexual abuse by a youth leader after informing church authorities. The man, who was not identified in a complaint filed Wednesday in Multnomah County Circuit Court, is seeking $5.25 million. According to the lawsuit, the plaintiff, then a teenager, was part of the church’s Pathfinder Club program in Junction City in 1975 when counselor Les Bovee sexually assaulted him. The plaintiff says he informed church authorities but stayed in the program. On a camping trip after informing church authorities, the plaintiff said in the lawsuit that Bovee assaulted him again. “(Bovee) told him after he reported it, ‘They don’t believe you,’” said Steve Crew, one of the plaintiff’s attorneys. “Our client thought that was right, that Bovee was allowed to abuse him.”

‘We are shocked and saddened’ The church’s Marylandbased headquarters referred calls about the case to local offices. The Oregon Conference of Seventh-day Adventists did not return calls from The Associated Press on Wednesday, but Steve Vistaunet of the church’s regional headquarters in Ridgefield, Wash., said the church was rocked by the allegation. “We are shocked and sad-

dened any time the abuse of a child occurs in our communities and especially within the circle of our church’s influence,” Vistaunet said in a statement emailed to the AP. “The Seventhday Adventist Church takes the safety of children seriously who come to our churches or engage in church-related functions. Although we can’t comment yet on the specifics of this case, we will do all we can to resolve this appropriately.”

Convicted in 1979 There was no answer Wednesday at a phone number listed for Bovee’s last known address in Myrtle Creek. According to public records, Bovee was convicted in 1979 in Lane County of second-degree sodomy and served a 10-year sentence. Crew said he had determined with which church officials the plaintiff spoke and was prepared to call them as witnesses if the case were to go to trial. The lawsuit alleges that the defendants knew Bovee was a risk to children, but they allowed him to continue to serve in his position as a youth leader. The lawsuit says that the church should be held accountable for failing to report the alleged assault to police, for failing to exclude Bovee from contact with children or the Pathfinders group, and for failing to tell parents of other children that Bovee was a risk. The suit also alleges the church failed to enforce “commonsense policies” that could prevent child abuse and didn’t train Pathfinder leaders in how to recognize and prevent abuse.

What is ‘awful’ in union battles

egotiators from the state and one of Oregon’s largest state employee unions sat down at the bargaining table on Tuesday and exchanged initial proposals. AFSCME,

which represents about 6,000 public employees, called the state’s offer “in a word — awful.” What was so awful? The state put on the table a menu of options: • No step increases from July 2011 to the end of June 2013. That saves the state about $54 million in the general fund budget over the biennium. • Employees must pick up any health insurance premium increases over what the state paid for 2010. That would save the state about $46 million in the general fund budget over the biennium. • Ending the 6 percent pickup that the state makes for the employee’s contribution to the state retirement system as of July 1. That would save the state about $117 million over the same two-year period. • There are other options, too, including one for seven more furlough days, which saves the state about $62 million for the biennium. According to the union, the state indicated there was room for overall growth in employee compensation in the state budget by 6 percent. So the union could, presumably, pick among the options and just not go over 6 percent. The union countered with its own proposals. It’s a smorgasbord of more. If the state takes the 6 percent pickup, the union wants a 6 percent increase in salary. The union asked

for a wage increase in 2011 and in 2012 of 2 percent plus the increase in the consumer price index. Employees who are demoted rather than taking a layoff would get to keep their current salary. There’s also an increase in vacation time, and the day after Thanksgiving would become a paid holiday. The governor’s team is apparently not commenting during the negotiations. Don Loving, a spokesman for AFSCME, said the negotiations are a dance at this point and neither side expects to get exactly what it is asking for. Back to what is “awful.” The union is right. If you are a state employee, these cuts might feel awful. But do you know what else is awful? The economy. The state’s unemployment rate. The state’s $3.5 billion general fund budget shortfall. Oregonians seeing their incomes and home values decline. State employees and how they are compensated are the building blocks of state government. When the state is lurching through awful, a correction is bound to come. How many other Oregonians look out over the next two years and can say they will see 6-percent growth in compensation? Most Oregonians wouldn’t refuse to swallow that as awful. They’d take it in a heartbeat.

Appoint superintendents

regon’s least well-known — judges aside — elected public official is no doubt Susan Castillo, superintendent of public instruction. The office draws so little attention, in fact, that almost 150,000 of Oregonians casting ballots in the May primary election failed to vote in Castillo’s race against Ron Maurer. It’s not entirely Castillo’s fault that so few people seem to care. Oregon’s superintendent of public instruction has an administrative job of running a state department. The superintendent oversees such activities as gathering statistics and other record-keeping tasks. Policy is generally set by the state Board of Education. And while the superintendent appears before the Legislature on funding and education issues, other state department heads do that, as well. Still, every four years Oregonians vote to fill the position. Sometimes they’ve been lucky, and a person with real education experience or exceptionally good relations with lawmakers has been elected. Other times, as

now, not so much. Even when highly qualified people hold the job, however, the question remains: Why is this administrator an elected position in the first place? It is because the state constitution makes it that way, of course. Now, at least some Oregon lawmakers want to change that, and they’ve introduced a handful of bills. Gov. John Kitzhaber backs the idea, as well, no doubt in part because the change would allow the governor to appoint the head of the education agency. Creating the change is no slam dunk, however. Oregonians have voted on and rejected the idea in the past, for one thing. Too, there’s disagreement about whether the state constitution allows the Legislature to make the change without a public vote, and it seems likely that unless it can, the idea will be difficult to put into effect. Ultimately the state superintendent is a department head. Oregonians don’t need to elect department heads.

Time to stop our oil addiction By Thomas L. Friedman New York Times News Service

THOMAS FRIEDMAN

hat’s unfolding in the Arab world today is the mother of all wake-up calls. And what the voice on the other end of the line is telling us is clear as a bell: “America, you have built your house at the foot of a volcano. That volcano is now spewing lava from different cracks and is rumbling like it’s going to blow. Move your house!” In this case “move your house” means “end your addiction to oil.” No one is rooting harder for the democracy movements in the Arab world to succeed than I am. But even if things go well, this will be a long and rocky road. The smart thing for us to do right now is to impose a $1-a-gallon gasoline tax, to be phased in at 5 cents a month beginning in 2012, with all the money going to pay down the deficit. Legislating a higher energy price today that takes effect in the future, notes the Princeton economist Alan Blinder, would trigger a shift in buying and investment well before the tax kicks in. With one little gasoline tax we can make ourselves more economically and strategically secure, help sell more Chevy Volts and free ourselves to openly push for democratic values in the Middle East without worrying anymore that it will harm our oil interests. Yes, it will mean higher gas prices, but prices are going up anyway, folks. Let’s capture some it for ourselves. It is about time. For the past 50 years, America (and Europe and Asia) have treated the Middle East as if it were just a collection of big gas stations: Saudi station, Iran station, Kuwait station,

Bahrain station, Egypt station, Libya station, Iraq station, United Arab Emirates station, etc. Our message to the region has been very consistent: “Guys (it was only guys we spoke with), here’s the deal. Keep your pumps open, your oil prices low, don’t bother the Israelis too much and, as far as we’re concerned, you can do whatever you want out back. You can deprive your people of whatever civil rights you like. You can engage in however much corruption you like. You can preach whatever intolerance from your mosques that you like. You can print whatever conspiracy theories about us in your newspapers that you like. You can keep your women as illiterate as you like. You can create whatever vast welfare-state economies, without any innovative capacity, that you like. You can under-educate your youth as much as you like. Just keep your pumps open, your oil prices low, don’t hassle the Jews too much — and you can do whatever you want out back.” It was that attitude that enabled the Arab world to be insulated from history for the past 50 years — to be ruled for decades by the same kings and dictators. Well, history is back. The combination of rising food prices, huge bulges of unemployed youth and social networks that are enabling those youths to orga-

nize against their leaders is breaking down all the barriers of fear that kept these kleptocracies in power. But fasten your seat belts. This is not going to be a joy ride because the lid is being blown off an entire region with frail institutions, scant civil society and virtually no democratic traditions or culture of innovation. The United Nations’ Arab Human Development Report 2002 warned us about all of this, but the Arab League made sure that that report was ignored in the Arab world and the West turned a blind eye. But that report — compiled by a group of Arab intellectuals led by Nader Fergany, an Egyptian statistician — was prophetic. It merits re-reading today to appreciate just how hard this democratic transition will be. The report stated that the Arab world is suffering from three huge deficits — a deficit of education, a deficit of freedom and a deficit of women’s empowerment. A summary of the report in Middle East Quarterly in the fall of 2002 detailed the key evidence: the gross domestic product of the entire Arab world combined was less than that of Spain. Seeing the Arab democracy movements in Egypt and elsewhere succeed in modernizing their countries would be hugely beneficial to them and to the world. We must do whatever we can to help. But no one should have any illusions about how difficult and convulsive the Arabs’ return to history is going to be. Let’s root for it, without being in the middle of it.

CHICAGO — an Tiny Dancer lift up the City of Big Shoulders? He thinks so. Even coiled with nervous anticipation and bundled in Patagonia on a snowy election day, Rahm Emanuel retained his Black Swan panache. He was 10 minutes early, as usual, for an 8 a.m. campaign stop at the 65th Street El on the South Side. Commuters streaming through were already calling Emanuel “Mr. Mayor,” or simply Rahm, explaining which parking meters on the Lakefront they wanted fixed or what predatory lending on the South Side they needed stopped. “You can do it!” yelled Lynetta Spears, 38, a tall, African-American woman. Surrounded by his three adorable — and adoring — children, Emanuel pointed at Spears intensely, Jerry Maguire-style. “Barack Obama trusts him,” Spears told me. “Rahm’s a good guy.” She shrugged off the caricature of the 51-year-old Emanuel as The En-

forcer who stabs steak knives into tables swearing vengeance and sends dead fish to those who cross him. “Everyone has a temper,” she said breezily. Chicago is a city, as H.L. Mencken wrote, that is “alive from snout to tail.” Which is a pretty good description of the electrified Emanuel as well; even his handshake feels hot. His campaign spots allude to that profane Rahmbo style that Andy Samberg parodies on “Saturday Night Live.” “He’s not gonna take any guff,” a bluecollar guy vows in one ad. The wiry and buff former White House chief of staff, who was known around the West Wing as “Tiny Dancer,” was falsely accused of being a carpetbagger for the years he spent in Washington as a Clinton and Obama aide and Illinois congressman. Now he’s such a celebrity here, he goes by only one name — on his yard signs, in his ads and even in his opponent’s attack ad. Rahm sometimes refers to himself as Rahm. “If their strategy was to get Rahm to explode,” he said of his motley crew of foes, “they’ve built a strategy based on

MAUREEN DOWD something I control.” Emanuel ran a disciplined and genial campaign, even showing patience during a ridiculous 12-hour hearing on whether he was really a resident of Chicago and qualified to run for mayor — a dust-up caused when the odd tenant renting Rahm’s North Side house refused to vacate and stirred up political trouble. Rahm rebutted that he and his wife, Amy Rule, still had stuff stored at his house, including Amy’s wedding dress. “I said as a joke that if the hearing went into 13 hours, I was going to put the wedding dress on,” he said with a grin, as he hopscotched around the city scooping up last-minute votes. When I asked what revenge he is plotting against his scheming tenant, Emanuel looked mischievous, but bit his

tongue. Of course, as Jon Stewart notes, the only thing scarier than Rahm Emanuel angry “is Rahm Emanuel smiling through his anger.” Can a city famous for its beefy pols, mobsters and steakhouse politicking handle a Sarah Lawrence College graduate who wore tights, eats organic, swims and does yoga, a lithe spirit who has more facility with Martha Graham’s version of “Apollo” than the Bulls’ place in their division? “I’ll eat grass-fed steaks,” he smiles. “Hey, I love steak, though I’ve cut down. My grandfather was a truck driver for Scandinavian Meats. I’m not interested in changing the culture of this city. I’m interested in changing how we do business.” He knows it took a while for Chicagoans to warm up to him. “The members that represented my district before me were Dan Rostenkowski, Roman Pucinski, Frank Annunzio, Mike Flanagan and Rod Blagojevich,” he said. “And along comes a guy named Rahm Israel Emanuel. I don’t know if I was loved, but they knew whose side I was on.” He had hoped to become the first Jew-

ish Speaker of the House, but now he is destined to become the first Jewish mayor of Chicago. “For me, as Rahm Emanuel, the grandson of Herman Smulivitz who came to this city in 1917 from the Russian-Romanian border as a 13-year-old to leave the pogroms, and son of Benjamin Emanuel, who came here in 1959 from Israel to start a medical practice, there’s a personal sense of accomplishment,” he said, after polishing off a half-corned-beef, half-pastrami sandwich at the legendary Manny’s deli. The other two members of the most competitive sibling trio on Earth — his brothers Zeke, the oncologist, and Ari, the Hollywood agent — flew to Chicago to come to their brother’s victory party. David Axelrod, who has moved back here to help organize the president’s re-election run, was also on hand, even though it was his birthday. “My birthday present,” Axelrod said, “will be a nine-and-a-half fingered mayor.” Maureen Dowd is a columnist for The New York Times.

Vivian Jean Houck Jan. 1, 1923 - Feb. 20, 2011 Vivian Jean died peacefully, February 20, 2011. She was 88 years old. Jean was born January 1, 1923, in Rose Lake, Idaho to Joseph and Rose Huber. On October 29, 1942, she married the love of her life, John Houck.

She was preceded in death by her husband of 67 years, John Houck, her half-sister, Susan Thibeau, her granddaughter, Erin (Houck) Dellahoussaye, and son-in-law, Alan Dardis. Jean was a devoted wife and mother who inspired her family with her generous and gentle nature. Her generosity knew no bounds. She was a gift to the Madras community and wherever she lived as a testament to her faith. She loved birds and blue, and was admired by her daughters as being a tasteful decorator with an eye for the chic. Her gift was the love she showered upon her husband, her children, her friends, especially those in need, and her grandchildren. She will be sorely missed and grieved by all her children.

Jan. 19, 1941 - Feb. 18, 2011 Harold Dean Gaylor of Prineville was born on January 19, 1941, to Clifford and Samantha Gaylor in Claremore, Oklahoma. He went to be with the Lord on February 18, 2011. His family moved to Oregon and he attended school in Glide, near Roseburg. He met his wife of 50 years, Sharon Claassen, in Coburg, OrHarold Gaylor egon, and they were married on September 3, 1960. Together they raised three children. They moved to Redmond in 1973 and then to Prineville in 2003.

Treasurer Continued from C1 Commissioners intend to sit down with Goss at a work session to discuss ways to improve the operation of the treasurer’s office. That work session has not yet been scheduled, but Goss would like the commissioners to agree upon a reporting template and timetable for accounts, an update to the county’s investment policy and, perhaps, buy investment software for her department. The meeting began at 9 a.m. Wednesday with a public comment session at which many people spoke in Goss’ defense. The board requested the meeting on Feb. 9 so they could discuss a number of possible violations they had documented in a letter and potential discipline that could be applied. The disciplinary actions mentioned in the letter range from public reprimand to removing Goss, an elected official, from office.

Ridgeview Continued from C1 The school is being paid for with money from the $110 million bond district voters passed in 2008. Johnny Corbin, who lives in the district and is active in military veteran affairs, told the board that he still preferred his own submission for Robert Maxwell, who was awarded a Medal of Honor. Of the three finalists, Corbin preferred South Redmond. “That’s the best of the three choices, and I don’t think that’s a good choice,” Corbin said. Another Redmond resident who spoke at the meeting said he preferred Ridgeview. Board member Cathy Miller, who voted against Ridgeview, wondered about the district’s two high schools sharing the same initials of RHS would cause confusion. The existing high school is Redmond High School. Board member Ric Little also voted against Ridgeview.

Panel Continued from C1 “All of those reform initiatives are things I’m interested in,” said Juba, including a shift in school funding to reward district performance, the consolidation of school districts in order to do more with less, and generally encouraging schools “to be innovative and think about outcomes” rather than “just screaming for dollars.” The governor, who will serve as chair, has given the Oregon Education Invest-

Dwayne McDuffie, comic and animation writer, dies at 49 The Associated Press PHILADELPHIA — Dwayne McDuffie, who wrote comic books for Marvel and DC and founded his own publishing company before crossing over to television and animation, has died. He was 49. The Detroit native died Monday, a day after his birthday, DC Comics said. His cause and place of death weren’t immediately known. McDuffie wrote comics for the New York-based DC and Marvel, including runs on Batman: Legends of the Dark

Knight, the Fantastic Four and the Justice League of America. He also penned several animated television shows and features, including the just-released “All-Star Superman” as well as “Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths” and the animated TV series “Static Shock” and “Ben 10: Alien Force.” In 1992, McDuffie formed the comic book company Milestone Media Inc., which focused on creator-owned multicultural superheroes including “Hardware,” “Icon,” “Blood Syndicate,” “Xombi” and “Static.”

After hearing from the public and from Goss, the board came to the conclusion that there was no need to punish her for the mistakes made in the handling of an account from the county jail or for breaking a state threshold for investments in corporate debt. Commissioner Wayne Fording went so far as to offer a public apology to Goss. Fording said he was sorry for the way in which the inquiry into her office had taken place, saying he wished the draft letter that outlined the possible violations and potential discipline had never been written and released into public record. The bulk of the discussion during the public meeting centered on the investments in corporate debt. At one point, Ahern asked Goss if she had violated the state law regarding an investment threshold in corporate debt. “Obviously I did,” said Goss, who then asked commissioners to consider how she responded to the discovery of her mistake. “When it was brought to my attention, I sold (the investments in question). I found we were out of

compliance, (and) I sold the corporate notes. I made a mistake. There was no harm done to the county. Bottom line.” Meanwhile, the commission quickly dismissed questions about Goss’ oversight of a separate account from which $8,000 had disappeared over the course of three years. That issue was a moot point, they decided, as a Department of Justice found there was not enough evidence to support charging Goss with a crime. A discussion of Goss’ handling of a delinquent Transient Occupancy Tax account was also quickly resolved as both parties agreed that any future problems could be resolved with more frequent reports. Ahern said in the end he believed that Goss had made none of the errors on purpose. “I think it is bad,” Ahern told Goss before signing the public statement, “but I’m giving you the benefit of the doubt by saying it wasn’t purposeful.” Erik Hidle can be reached at 541-617-7837 or at ehidle@bendbulletin.com.

For a brief time during the meeting, board members discussed whether the new school’s name should be “Ridgeview” or “Ridge View.” The board eventually settled on the one-word version. The committee selected Ridgeview because of the view from the school’s property and because some of the most popular submissions included either “ridge” or “view” in the name. After touring the school, which is under construction, board member A.J. Losoya came to understand why the committee picked that name. “Taking a look at the views from that school, they’re phenomenal,” Losoya said. “I think, in time, it will create its own distinction and people will know where it’s at.” After the board voted, a round of applause broke out. Once the room was quiet again, Toni Duff, who chaired the name committee, said even people who did not like the name now would grow used to it. “It’s like naming a baby,” Duff said. “You’ll grow to love it.” In other business, the district will not place a local option levy

on the next ballot. After a teacher pitched the idea, the district researched the possibility of returning some of the $16 million of bond savings in return for voter approval of a local option levy. That move would have exchanged bond dollars, which are restricted for capital spending, for more flexible levy money. But because of declining property values, the district would be limited in how much it could raise through a levy. According to district projections, the levy would have raised about $650,000 per year, significantly less than the $10 million budget shortfall it currently faces. Bond savings, instead, will pay for renovations at four district schools. Redmond School Board Chairman Jim Erickson praised the idea’s creativity, but said it would not fix the district’s budget problems. “It’s a horrific situation we’re all in,” he said. “I don’t think this feels like the fix to the board.” Patrick Cliff can be reached at 541-633-2161 or at pcliff@bendbulletin.com.

ment Team a number of tasks. It must develop a plan to make the state’s schools more effective and a budget model that rewards performance rather than divvying up state education dollars strictly by enrollment, as is now the case. Kitzhaber also wants Juba, Geisen and their fellow

Investment Team members to figure out how to set up another powerful panel — the Oregon Education Investment Board — to oversee school funding. The Investment Team must wrap up all of its recommendations in a written report by May 31, 2011.

The sun sets on the Oregon State Hospital’s restored cupola of the Kirkbride U building and the last crumbling wall of the J Building in Salem on Monday evening. The J Building was a fortress-like 126-year-old brick complex that gained a niche in cinematic history when it was used in filming of the 1975 Oscar-winning movie “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest.”

The Associated Press PORTLAND — Arctic air pushing snow into Oregon may arrive a little later and bring less snow than expected. The National Weather Service said Wednesday afternoon the cold air has stalled north of the Columbia River in Washington state, delaying the start of snow in the Portland metropolitan area and the Willamette Valley. But a winter storm warning was in effect for all of Western Oregon and Southwest Washington state, with 1 to 3 inches expected overnight and temperatures to plummet into the teens. The Oregon Department of Transportation and city agencies, including TriMet in Portland, were equipping buses and plows to handle the snow if it accumulates. The weather service said 6 to 12 inches of snow could fall in the Cascade foothills, and up to 2 feet in the mountains.

SAN FRANCISCO — Northern California Native American tribes are clashing with state wildlife regulators over plans to restrict fishing off parts of the rugged coastline from the Oregon border south to Point Arena in Mendocino County. The tribes, including the Yurok, the state’s largest, say proposals for marine protection areas along the North Coast infringe on their fishing rights. Those proposals — currently before the state fish and game commission — were crafted under California’s 1999 Marine Life Protection Act, which was aimed in part at preventing overfishing and restoring depleted fisheries. Although the state has created marine protected areas along other parts of its coastline, opposition until now has mostly been from commercial

fishermen concerned about their livelihoods. On the North Coast, tribes have been the effort’s main critics. At stake for them, tribal representatives say, are cultural practices dating back thousands of years and their sovereign rights. “We are part of this ecosystem,” said Yurok Chairman Thomas O’Rourke, Sr. “We have never stopped gathering. We have never stopped harvesting, and we will continue to gather, hunt and harvest from the waters of the ocean.” State wildlife officials and advisors say they can’t carve out an exception that would allow tribes to harvest marine life from coastal waters while maintaining restrictions for other users. That would be illegal under laws guaranteeing equal access, said Ken Wiseman, executive director of the Marine Life Protection Act initiative.

Bend girls roll past Marshfield in 5A play-in game, 69-19 Bulletin staff report

GOLF Woods knocked out in Match Play MARANA, Ariz. — One minute he looked like the Tiger Woods of old, burying a clutch birdie putt when he was down to his last shot. One swing later, Woods looked lost in the desert. With the pressure at a peak, Woods hit a 3-wood into a desert bush on the first extra hole Wednesday and was eliminated in the first round of the Match Play Championship by Thomas Bjorn. “I blew it,” Woods said. When his 18-foot bogey putt rolled past the cup, Woods removed his cap and conceded the match to Bjorn. Top-ranked Lee Westwood never trailed in his 3-and-2 victory over Henrik Stenson, while PGA champion Martin Kaymer had the shortest match of the opening round, a 7-and-6 win over 19-year-old Seung-yul Noh of South Korea. Phil Mickelson, who only decided to play this World Golf Championship two weeks ago, won 6-and-5 over Brendan Jones. Still, Woods had some company in going home early. The Americans had four of the top 10 seeds at Dove Mountain, and Mickelson is the only one left. Matteo Manassero, the 17-year-old Italian, became the youngest winner in this tournament with a victory over eighth-seeded Steve Stricker, while Jim Furyk continued his struggles in losing to Ryan Palmer, who was making his Match Play debut. Of the 32 players remaining, 13 are Americans, 13 are Europeans and two each are from Australia, South Africa and Asia. — The Associated Press

Crook County wrestlers, from left, Bryson Martin, Trevor Wilson and Trevor Ough lead the Cowboys into the Class 4A state championships this weekend in Portland.

Cowboy glory? Crook County will try to win its first state title since 1975, while other Central Oregon teams and wrestlers will seek championships at the state meet in Portland as well By Beau Eastes The Bulletin

Historically, Crook County has always wrestled well at the state tournament. Last year at the Class 5A state championships, four wrestlers for the Cowboys placed, including McKennan Buckner, who won the title at 103 pounds. In 2008, Crook County finished third at the 5A state tourney. And in 2007, the Cowboys placed second. But the wrestling-mad town of Prineville has not celebrated a team state championship in wrestling since 1975, when Crook County claimed Oregon’s Class AA title. That may be about to change. Wrestling at the Class 4A Special District 2 regional in Ontario — the tournament boasted four of the Oregon Wrestling Forum’s top seven ranked 4A teams — the Cowboys advanced 17 wrestlers to the 2011 4A state championships,

which will be held this Friday and Saturday at Portland’s Memorial Coliseum. Crook County is tied with Henley of Klamath Falls for the most participants at this year’s 4A state meet, an edge that should put the Cowboys in title contention. “When we get to the state tournament, we’re always placing six of seven guys or seven of eight guys,” Jake Huffman, the Cowboys’ thirdyear coach, said this week. “The problem’s always been for us coming out of the (Intermountain Conference).” Competing in the old IMC with traditional wrestling powers Hermiston and Pendleton, Crook County usually advanced a healthy number of wrestlers to state, but not enough to challenge for a state title. That changed this school year when the Cowboys moved down to Class 4A because of declining student enrollment. See Wrestling / D2

Bend High had no problem handling Marshfield of Coos Bay on Wednesday, blowing out the Pirates 69-19 in the first round of the Class 5A girls play-in action. Mekayla Isaak scored a gamehigh 13 points at Bend High to lead the Lava Bears, who finished the season as the Intermountain Conference’s No. 3 seed. Ally McConnell added 12 and Katelyn Tolentino contributed eight points for Bend, which had eight players score six or more points Wednesday. The Lava Bears (16-6 overall) controlled the game from the opening tipoff, leading 18-4 at the end of the first quarter and 32-7 at halftime. “I liked our defensive energy,” Bend coach Todd Ervin said, “and what kids did coming off the bench.” See Bend / D3

S B Basketball • Caltech ends 310-game losing streak: The end of Caltech’s 310-game conference losing streak spanning 26 years was so big, even school president Jean-Lou Chameau rushed the court to celebrate. A day later, the two old-time scoreboards in tiny Braun Gym remained lit up with the result: Home 46, Visitor 45. The Division III Beavers beat Occidental College in their season finale Tuesday night, giving Caltech its first Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference victory since Jan. 23, 1985, when the Beavers defeated LaVerne 48-47. • Nets acquire Williams in trade: The New Jersey Nets finally landed a big-name All-Star in a blockbuster trade that gives them point guard Deron Williams and sends rookie Derrick Favors and point guard Devin Harris to the Utah Jazz. The Jazz also will receive the Nets’ firstround pick in 2011, which could be a lottery pick, cash, and Golden State’s 2012 first-round draft pick. The Nets now hope Williams will sign a contract extension with them, which they can offer this summer. If so, he would become the face of their franchise when they move into their new arena in Brooklyn for the 2012-13 season. The 6-foot-3 Williams is in his sixth NBA season and holds career averages of 17.3 points, 3.2 rebounds and 9.1 assists.

Football • Arizona State QB Threet ends career: Arizona State quarterback Steven Threet says he’s quitting football after suffering four concussions in the past five years, including two last fall. Threet had a concussion Oct. 23 at California and another Nov. 26 against UCLA that ended his junior season. He told The Arizona Republic on Wednesday that he’s still experiencing symptoms from the last concussion and still has headaches and has trouble sleeping. Threet also suffered concussions his senior year at Adrian (Mich.) High School and in 2008 while playing at Michigan. Threet threw for 2,534 yards and 18 touchdowns with 16 interceptions for the Sun Devils last season. Threet’s decision likely makes Brock Osweiler the starting quarterback entering spring practice.

Colleges • NCAA accuses Tennessee of rules violations: The NCAA has charged Tennessee with at least a dozen rules violations committed by the university’s basketball and football programs. Included in the allegations after the NCAA’s 22-month investigation are charges that coach Bruce Pearl acted unethically and failed to monitor compliance activities by his basketball staff. Former Volunteers football coach Lane Kiffin is also charged with failing to monitor his staff. Kiffin is now at Southern California. Tennessee has until May 21 to respond to the NCAA’s allegations and is expected to appear at a June 10-11 meeting of the Committee on Infractions.

Baseball • Cardinals’ Wainwright injures elbow: St. Louis Cardinals ace Adam Wainwright is getting a second opinion on his injured right elbow, which the team fears will require reconstructive surgery. Team spokesman Brian Bartow said Wednesday night that results of MRIs and other tests were being examined by Dr. Lewis Yocum in Los Angeles. The team anticipated a news conference this afternoon to disclose findings. Wainwright, a 20-game winner and runner-up for the NL Cy Young Award last year, was sent back to St. Louis on Wednesday for tests and consultation with team physician George Paletta. — From wire reports

Wrestling Continued from D1 “Looking at (the brackets), we thought to have a chance to make a run at state we’d have to qualify at least 15 kids,” Huffman said. “And we’d have to do really good to do that. We’re pleased with 17.” While Trevor Wilson (No. 3 at 152 pounds) and Trevor Ough (No. 2, 171) are Crook County’s only seeded wrestlers this weekend, the Cowboys roll into state with four district champions in Erik Martin (103 pounds), Grayson Munn (112), Ough and Bryson Martin (189). Maybe just as impressive, of 11 Crook County wrestlers who found themselves in the consolation bracket at last weekend’s regional tournament, eight battled back to advance to state. In Class 4A, as in 6A and 5A, the top four wrestlers in each regional weight class qualify for state. “Our best round of the tournament was the consolation semifinals, the blood round, where it was make-or-break for state,” Huffman said. “We’ve got no dead weight. Even the guys that finished fourth at districts can compete and win some matches at state.” While Crook County chases its first state title in more than three decades, Culver will be looking for its fifth championship in five years. The Bulldogs will have 12 wrestlers at the 2A/1A state champion-

Ryan Haney, who won a state title at 103 pounds for the Panthers in 2010, is one of eight Redmond wrestlers to qualify for this year’s state championships. Haney, the No. 2 seed at 119 pounds, is one of four seeded wrestlers for the Panthers at the 2011 state tourney. In the 5A tournament, Bend High will have six wrestlers competing for state titles. Lava Bear junior Shane Buck rolls into the 5A championships after winning the 215-pound bracket at the Class 5A Special District 4 tournament on Feb. 12.

The Associated Press DURHAM, N.C. — Things are getting back to normal at Duke: The Blue Devils are ranked No. 1 again, and points came in bunches for Kyle Singler. Singler broke out of a slump by scoring 28 points, and Duke marked its return to the top spot in the national rankings by beating No. 24 Temple 78-61 on Wednesday night. “He was just not to be denied,” Temple coach Fran Dunphy said of Singler. Nolan Smith finished with 15 points and Mason Plumlee added 13 rebounds to help the ACC-leading Blue Devils (26-2) dodge a late-season nonconference letdown. Duke used a huge run that bridged the halves to win its eighth straight overall and extend a pair of notable winning streaks at Cameron Indoor Stadium. Singler equaled a career high for field goals while going 10 of 19 in his most productive game since matching a career high with 30 points at Oregon on Nov. 27. This time, he helped Duke win its 35th straight game at Cameron and its 86th in a row there against nonconference teams — both NCAA bests.

Los Angeles Lakers guard Kobe Bryant, right, defends Portland Trail Blazers guard Rudy Fernandez, during the first half of Wednesday night’s game in Portland.

Lakers take down Blazers in overtime The Associated Press PORTLAND— Kobe Bryant had 37 points and the Los Angeles Lakers overcame a 10point deficit late in the fourth quarter to beat Portland 106-101 in overtime Wednesday night, snapping the Trail Blazers’ seasonbest six-game winning streak. LaMarcus Aldridge had 29 points and 14 rebounds for the Blazers, but didn’t hit a shot in the fourth quarter and missed two key free throws in the extra period. Lamar Odom and Ron Artest each hit a three-pointer to help Los Angeles to a 95-92 lead in overtime. Rudy Fernandez responded with a tying three and Andre Miller’s jumper gave the Blazers the lead, but Pau Gasol hit a turnaround hook shot and added a free throw before Bryant’s jumper with 27.9 seconds left gave Los Angeles a 100-97 advantage. Gasol fouled Aldridge, who missed both free throws to all but seal it for the Lakers. The two-time defending NBA champions beat Atlanta 104-80 on Tuesday night in Los Angeles, snapping a three-game losing streak. Portland went up 85-75 on Wesley Matthews’ short jumper with 5:49 left in regulation. But the Lakers slowly chipped away at the lead. Artest hit a three-pointer with 1:29 left that narrowed the gap to four. Bryant’s fadeaway jumper made it 87-85, and after Aldridge missed on the other end, Bryant scored again with 4.7 seconds left. Aldridge missed another layup as time ran out, sending the game to overtime. The dramatic loss ruined an uplifting night for Portland, which put three-time All-Star Brandon Roy on the floor for the first time since December. Roy entered with 2:21 left in the first quarter and received a standing ovation from the sellout crowd at the Rose Garden. Roy hadn’t played since Dec. 15 because of soreness in both knees, which he says is caused by too little cartilage. He underwent arthroscopic surgery on Jan. 17. Coach Nate McMillan says Roy will be limited to 15 minutes per game initially, coming off the bench. He will not play in back-toback games.

Tying Continued from D1 Fly Fishers Place owner Jeff Perrin taught Steele how to fly-fish and tie flies, and she developed a deep passion for the hobby. A retired computer technician, Steele says tying flies fit her need for something technical. “It’s very technical,” she says of fly tying. “You have to learn biology. I really enjoy digging around in streams, looking for bugs. Then you go home and tie something that looks like that bug. This area is a mecca for that.” Now Steele and Perrin are in the process of co-authoring a book on fly patterns that hook fish in Central Oregon and how to tie them. Steele says she is also working on a book about women in fly-fishing. “As a woman coming up in a man’s world, with technology, the analogies (between a technology career and fly-fishing) are just amazing,” she says. Steele created the Central Oregon Flyfishers Winter Fly Tying Series, which is held every Tuesday night at the Bend Senior Center. The series, now in its third year, features an expert fly-tying instructor for each session. Steele instructed the class this week. “Everybody gets their flies tied all winter, the latest and the greatest,” Steele says of the class. Many fly anglers like to stockpile their flies during the winter, so come the prime fishing seasons of spring and summer they will have a full arsenal. Steele, who also teaches flytying classes at the Fly Fishers Place on Thursday nights, says the ultimate reward for fly tiers is catching a fish with a fly they tied themselves. “The fact that you can tie a fly, something you created, and then go catch a fish with it … it’s really exciting when that first happens,” she says. But Steele also enjoys tying flies for the pure art of it. She learned to tie Classic Atlantic Salmon Flies with a group in Salem, then eventually started her own such club in Sisters: the Central Oregon Fly Tyers Guild. The club of 18 members ties classic flies, frames them, then gives them away to other nonprofits for fundraisers. Steele, who has been married for 27 years and has an adult son, ties many of her flies in a 600square-foot room in her Sisters home. Her husband, Eric, designed and built the room. “The room houses my passion,” Sherry Steele says. Like many other fly anglers, Steele likes to promote the message of conservation. She can do this through her positions with the Federation of Fly Fishers, a 43year-old international nonprofit organization. According to its website, the Federation of Fly Fishers is “dedicated to the betterment of the sport of fly-fishing through conservation, restoration and education.” Or, as Steele puts it: “Teach the kids how to take care of these rivers. That’s what it’s all about.” Mark Morical can be reached at 541-383-0318 or at mmorical@ bendbulletin.com.

A fishing trip on horseback GARY LEWIS

CENTRAL ZONE CROOKED RIVER BELOW BOWMAN DAM: Flows are highly variable; check flows before venturing out. Fishing should improve as the week continues. According to recent angler reports, the trout seem to be larger this year than in recent past years. Anglers are reminded that angling methods are restricted to artificial flies and lures through May 28.

On the Coyhaique River in Chile, Gary Lewis caught this rainbow trout from the back of his horse, Colorin with a little help from Heather Barklow, of Glide. Atlas. Picture North America. Locate my home of Bend, then go east to Salt Lake City, then southeast to Atlanta. From Atlanta, find your way down a narrow strip of land called Central America thence southerly to South America. Go down, down, down, where it is summertime during our winter and the land becomes a narrow finger pointed at Antarctica. This, mi amigo, is Patagonia, land of the pampa, the Andes, verdant mountain valleys and fjords. The horse, of course, came from Spain. The trout are the spawn of pioneers from Europe — German browns — and from Los Estados Unidos — our own rainbows, brought to Chile and Argentina in the early 1900s. Two hours after I arrived at the Coyhaique River Lodge, I walked out, with a Cabela’s HDT 6-weight rod in hand. I didn’t know what HDT stood for, but I imagined it meant “Horse Duty for Trout.” There stood Barklow and Norman. They had taken a trial run to see which of their horses would permit an angler on its back.

My steed, Heather told me, was Colorin, a Criollo. The ride was less than a mile to the river down a narrow switchbacked track. Gaston Urrejola, the owner of the lodge, suggested a dry/dropper combination. I knotted a Schroeder’s Hopper to my tippet and added a beadhead Pheasant Tail tied off the bend of the hook on a 15-inch leader. Out into the river, Heather and I coaxed the gelding. Midstream, I shook line out of the rod tip and questioned my sanity and my vanity. It worked best to sit the horse mid-current and cast upstream. Right away, I missed a grab and moments later, hooked and lost a fish that took the nymph. The gelding, I imagined, asked himself what he was doing there in a sort of disinterested 2-yearold way. Upstream, we found another hole, with trout in the tailout. Like their counterparts in North America, they split for deep water when they saw el caballo and the humans. I made longer casts, taking care to keep from wrapping line around the horse’s knees. Gaston pointed to where the

trees hung over the water. When my hopper splashed down, a trout swirled. The fish turned; I lifted the rod. The rainbow came out of the water time and again; its spotted flanks flashed silver and crimson. After the second run, I brought it close to the horse and then dipped the long-handled net. The trout didn’t like the look of the horse and the horse didn’t like the look of the fish. They each tried to get away from the other, but my 4x tippet brought them back together. With the fish at the horse’s heels again, I had it almost in the net and then thought better of it. There was a good chance that with a rainbow-striped torpedo aboard, mi caballo might try to push the eject button for both of us. I handed the net to Heather and steered the fish into it. Heather wanted me to tell you not to try this at home.

DESCHUTES RIVER (Mouth to the northern boundary of the Warm Springs Reservation): Summer steelhead can still be found in good numbers from the Columbia upstream to the reservation boundary for the persistent angler. Winter trout fishing can also be good in the Deschutes, though fish are generally less responsive in very cool temperatures. Whitefish, however, seem to be more responsive in cool water temperatures. HAYSTACK RESERVOIR: Fishing has been slow, but should pick up in the coming weeks. HOOD RIVER: Anglers are reporting good success on bright winter steelhead in the lower river. Steelhead anglers should expect fish numbers to increase throughout the month with a peak in March and April. METOLIUS RIVER: Trout fishing has been good. Insect hatches should offer opportunities for good dryfly fishing. TAYLOR LAKE: Taylor Lake should offer anglers a good opportunity to catch trout this winter. The lake was stocked with legal and trophy trout in the fall.

Anglers have success for Hood River steelhead 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:

ometimes the horse is willing and sometimes the trout is willing, but not often at the same time. Both the horse and trout were willing in 1997 on the Minam River in northeast Oregon. But the line was weak. When the trout made his second leap, my tippet broke. Perhaps it was for the best. That horse didn’t mind that I carried a long stick and waved it around, but it might have had a change of heart when it saw a jumping, splashing rainbow at its heels. A horse has the mental capacity of a 1,500-pound 2-year old. With a brain, good eyes and experience with things like snakes and dogs that nip at heels, it can tolerate a lot, but it might just throw a tantrum, which becomes what folks around here call a rodeo. In 1999, on a pack trip to Ice Lake in Oregon’s Wallowa Mountains, I tried again. Barry Cox, of Enterprise, was the outfitter. When he returned to pack us out, I waited until he wasn’t looking and rode my bay into the water. The plan was to turn him around, make a long cast and troll the fly back. I laid the fly on the surface. A brook trout charged, but turned away when he saw my steed. Over the years, the goal became specific: to catch a wild trout on a dry fly from the back of a horse. To Kevin and Therese Friedmann, and Heather Barklow, whom I met at the Fly Spur Ranch in Tumalo, where the logo is a trout fly entwined with a riding spur, the idea resonated. When I met Joyce Norman, through our mutual friend, Brian Davis, she said she thought I could find a willing horse and willing trout in Patagonia. If you’re asking, “Where is Patagonia?” let me save you the trouble of digging out the

AND A WEEKEND AT THE * COAST IT’S EASY TO ENTER

By Gary Lewis For The Bulletin

July through October, dry caddis patterns are an indispensable part of the trout fisherman’s arsenal. In mid to late winter, however, a Peacock Caddis tied on a No. 12-14 dry-fly hook can double for a little black stonefly. If the conditions are right on a winter afternoon, an angler can tempt a dozen trout to the surface. Employ the Peacock Caddis on a long, light tippet when feeding trout are finicky. Dead drift is easiest, but during a caddis hatch a fly skittered along the surface can imitate egg-laying females and entice a strike. Tie the Peacock Caddis with black thread on a No. 10-14 dryfly hook. Build the body with peacock herl. For the wing, use elk hair. For the bushy collar, pair a brown and a grizzly hackle.

Go tap into ‘epic’ winter recreation, but it’s going to be chilly By Ben Salmon The Bulletin

After spending part of Central Oregon’s springlike January tending to his garden, Deschutes National Forest’s trails specialist Chris Sabo described conditions at local winter recreation areas as “epic” Wednesday. “We had an awesome week last week,” Sabo said. “That storm system brought plenty of snow to the forest, and pretty decent snow at some of the lower elevations, even in town.” With another storm expected late this week, plus cold temperatures, Sabo expects “nothing but light, fluffy, dry powder” on area trails. Of course, light, fluffy, dry powder can hide hazards at lower elevations, especially for people riding heavy snowmobiles. Riders should be vigilant for rocks, stumps and so on when playing in those areas. See Trails / E3

On any given day, fewer than 7 percent of those skiing or snowboarding at Bachelor are using Rainbow to get up the mountain’s east face, according to Andy Goggins, director of marketing and communications for the ski area. With seven express quads to choose from, and access to some of the most popular parts of the mountain, it’s little wonder that so few would opt for the merits of Rainbow. “Fewer than 7 percent” means there could

Tale of generosity inspires others to help kids in need

Connick to give ‘Great Performance’ on PBS By Luaine Lee

‘Great Performances’

McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Dear Abby: Thank you for printing the letter from the woman who paid for her neighbor’s children’s school lunch bill. “Lending a Hand in the Midwest” (Jan. 10) was angry to discover they didn’t qualify for free lunches because “their parents were just a couple of dollars over the limit.” To top it off, the children’s father is doing his second tour in Afghanistan. Because you encouraged your readers to contact local schools to give a few dollars to a child in need of a meal, it inspired me to speak to the principal in our district. Not only did the principal like my fundraising idea, he has allowed me time on campus to promote the fundraiser. Twenty-seven students will be joining me after school in making lollipops to sell at an upcoming event. Local businesses and individuals have donated most of the supplies necessary to make this a successful drive to help the children in need. Our goal is to raise $1,000 for this cause. I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to “Lending” for sharing a great idea. — Happily Paying it Forward in Hawaii Dear Happily: Thank you for spreading the message. “Lending’s” generous act of kindness elicited many interesting and thought-provoking responses. Read on: Dear Abby: I am a member of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, the Vietnam Veterans of America, the American Legion and the American Legion Riders Association. One of the main functions of our organizations is to help our veterans and their families in any way we can. You would be amazed at the monies and help expended to our veterans, soldiers and their families that doesn’t make the news because being “needy” is perceived as some kind of fault. To respond to a need, we must KNOW about it. Abby, please tell your readers if there is a prob-

DEAR ABBY lem, contact your local VFW, American Legion, AmVets, etc. and we will respond. — Frank in Burlington, Wis. Dear Abby: I am currently serving in the military and have never thought to donate to school lunches. I’m happy knowing people are watching out for the troops’ kids. As soon as I return home from Iraq, I will make the call to see where I can help. — Airman Who Has Been There Dear Abby: A lot of families are in the same situation. We have three kids and are $8 over the “allowed financial amount.” What’s not taken into consideration is the $100 my husband pays for Internet each month he’s serving in Afghanistan so our 8-year-old son with Asperger’s can “see” his daddy. This lessens the anxiety, compounded by his dad’s deployment, that is associated with his autism. God bless “Lending a Hand” for her gift to that family. — Abbie in Rineyville, Ky. Dear Abby: I work in a public school. The administrators and the school nurse have daily contact with “kids in need” who could benefit enormously from small donations. I encourage people to contact their local schools and inquire about donating new clothes and/or toiletries to a child in need. The child’s identity will not be revealed, but sizes and current clothing trends can be provided, and the donor will have the satisfaction of knowing the donation is helping a child “fit in” and will make a huge difference in that child’s self-esteem. — Marcia in West Virginia

PASADENA, Calif. — New Orleans singer and piano man Harry Connick Jr. always wanted to be in the limelight. He got his wish. At 9 years old he was playing with the New Orleans Philharmonic. At 19 he cut his first CD. It wasn’t because of some extraordinary talent, he thinks. “I had incredible opportunity. I had very supportive parents, and when they said, ‘Practice,’ you know you practiced.” All that practice paid off as Connick has gone on to record 24 albums, sold 25 million copies and is ranked among the top best-selling male artists in the U.S. by the Recording Industry Association of America. He’s also costarred in movies like “Hope Floats” and “Independence Day,” and written soundtracks, the most famous of which is his luscious mix for “When Harry Met Sally.” For a taste of his talent, PBS’ “Great Performances” on March 2 will present “Harry Connick Jr. in Concert on Broadway.” The show features Connick’s big band and a 12-piece string section, with the keyboardist on both a grand piano and upright honky-tonk. “I’m one of those personalities who had to be at the center of attention all the time,” he said. “My dad tells a story of when I was in the fifth grade. He came to kind of check up on me in school because he had heard that there was some disciplinary issues. And he kind of peeked in the door, and the class was in session, and I was in the

Harry Connick Jr. performs on “Great Performances” on PBS in “Harry Connick Jr. in Concert on Broadway” on March 2. back of the class at a table with about three other kids. And after the class was over, my dad went to the teacher and said, ‘What’s going on? Why is Harry Jr. in the back of the class?’ And she says, ‘Well, he won’t listen to me, so I’ve just decided to let him do his own thing back there.’” Eventually he learned that attention wasn’t everything. “But the thing is, when you have the kind of tutelage that I had, like Ellis Marsalis and James Booker and those kinds of people, they don’t care about being the center of attention,” he said. “All they care about is that you’re the best at your craft. So the problem occurs when you are the center of attention and you don’t know what you’re doing.” He knows the feeling. “I felt like I always belonged on the stage. I never felt like I didn’t belong on stage. I mean, I feel like I’m a natural performer. But at times, you get your behind kicked as a jazz musician. I could tell you a

couple of stories of playing with people who just mop the floor with you. I mean, that’s part of growing up, playing that kind of music. It’s really, really, really hard. You know, that’s why there’s not a lot of famous teenage jazz bands,” he said. Connick says he doesn’t worry about pleasing everyone when he’s performing. “It doesn’t matter what arena you play in, whether the Super Bowl or whatever, you just got to play the game,” he says. “I don’t know why people continue to come to my shows, to be honest with you. And I’m not saying that to be facetious. I’m not fishing. I’m being really serious. Because some people think of me as a guy who sings. Like,

one of my daughter’s friends said that I sing vintage pop. And some people think of me as a jazz musician. And they want to ignore the singing part of it. Some people, very few people, don’t care about the singing at all and kind of acknowledge the orchestrations and things like that, which is as much a part of what I do as the singing. “So, man, I can’t even think about satisfying anybody. That happens when I’m on stage ... I just go out and try ... to build a relationship. It’s like being on a date or something. You know, you gotta ask a lot of questions, and you gotta be considerate and polite. And as the evening goes on, you kind of reveal a little bit more of yourself. That’s why, when a lot of people see me play, they say, ‘You’re a real stiff at the beginning of your shows.’ And I probably am, because you don’t want to come into that date, with your shirt unbuttoned all the way down.”

Continued from E1 Also, with the big dump of snow comes increased avalanche potential in the backcountry. Sabo said the snow base “looked like it was setting up” last week, but that he didn’t get a chance to test it and he had reports of a couple of slides intentionally tripped by users. He cautioned folks who recreate in the backcountry to watch for unstable snow. “The thing to be aware of is those interfaces of (snow) layers,” he said. “Are they well bonded or not?” With the new snow, people who find the Ten Mile Sno-park in Newberry Crater full should consider the Six Mile Sno-park, which is nearby and should be a “decent option” for snowmobilers, Sabo said. The same can be said of the Three Creeks Lake area near Sisters; if the upper park is full, try the lower park. The Skyliner Sno-park near Tumalo Falls should also provide an additional option for winter recreation enthusiasts, thanks to

the recent storms. Sabo was unsure what kind of crowds would show up to play in the snow this weekend, in part because of the forecasted low temperatures. No matter how many people are out there, though, he reminded users to be careful, be smart and be respectful of one another. “The options are getting better for every winter user,” he said. “As for the hikers and bikers and other summer trail users, sorry, but you’re mostly out of luck. We’re pretty much snow-covered across the forest.” One other note: On Saturday and Sunday, the Special Olympics will hold events that begin on the Mt. Bachelor nordic trails and travel over to Dutchman Flat. Sabo said he does not expect a big impact for skiers, snowmobilers and snowshoers, but there may be some traffic control and other unusual things happening in that area, including a snowmobile crossing on Trail 5 in the Dutchman system.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Thursday, Feb. 24, 2011: This year, you need to harness your talents in order to deliver in a more substantial way at work or within your community. You can only gain through this ability. You learn to deal with those in charge in a more direct manner. If you are single, you have a lot to offer, but you might not want to settle down yet. If you are attached, as a couple you become more visible and instrumental in the community. You’ll become closer as a result. SAGITTARIUS knows how to push your buttons. A baby born Feb. 11, 2011, before 4:46 a.m. Pacific Time is Sun in Pisces, Moon in Scorpio. After that time, a Sun in Pisces, Moon in Sagittarius. The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHHH Reach out for new ideas. No one can be an expert in all matters. Finding an expert in various areas when you need one demonstrates your intelligence. Others could be touchy and challenging. You’ll make peace anyway. Tonight: Be impulsive. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH A key professional partner points to a new direction. Don’t worry; this person picks up wherever there is a lack or where you might let a detail drop. Listen to your instincts, and you’ll be on top of your game. Tonight: Indulge a loved one. GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

HHHHH Others carry out your ideas, but they also add their own flair. If you want something done 100 percent as you want it, you’d better count on doing it yourself. A meeting opens up options and helps bring more peace to your daily life. Tonight: Where the action is. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH Throw yourself into a project, and you will accomplish a lot, and quite quickly at that. A boss, parent or someone you answer to challenges you. Show what you are capable of. This action could have long-term implications. Tonight: A late dinner. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHHH Let your spontaneity come out. No matter what amount of flak is in between the action and the end result, you’ll land well. Your actions will determine the end result. Someone at a distance adds to the quality of your day. Tonight: Consider your weekend plans. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Pressure builds about a domestic or personal matter (at least in your head). A partner’s unexpected actions could force you to rethink an association. A boss makes demands. Do what is necessary, and the long-term results will be worthwhile. Tonight: Head home. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHHH Your words flow and hopefully are well received. You have a way of saying even difficult matters in a way that people will accept. Several people come forward. When they offer their help, they mean what they say. Tonight: Hanging out with a co-worker. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

HHH Be aware of your finances, but also understand that you have a lot more to offer than just that. You have innate gifts and talents that add to nearly any situation. Don’t hesitate to speak your mind and ask for what you need. Tonight: Be open to another treating. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Your high energy easily could start a conflict with someone who generally is enthusiastic. Look at it this way -- at least you got this person moving. At the end of the day, your ability to achieve is all that counts. Tonight: Add a little romance. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH Let others demonstrate what they mean. You don’t always have to perform to the max. Let a family member take the lead and do what he or she wants. Only the long-run results can reveal if this person is capable of what he or she thinks. Tonight: Take some personal time. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH A meeting could reunite friends, even if it is a business meeting. Realize what is happening behind the scenes with you and a key person. Do you think it is time to mend your bridges? All you need to do is make an effort. Tonight: Where the action is. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH You seem to catch the fallout when others walk away from a project. Complete it, and add the finishing touches. In the long run, don’t even think your work isn’t noticed. You will gain from your efforts. Your innate gifts will pay off. Tonight: Burning the midnight oil. © 2010 by King Features Syndicate

One tweaked ankle later, I’m still waiting go get in a ride at Rainbow. Meanwhile, Youngstrom and others in on the Rainbow secret are getting in their turns beneath the underappreciated chair. “It just might take a few more minutes to make it to the top,” Youngstrom says. “And, when it does, I have access to fresh powder stashes that not too many people know about!” Come on and heal, ankle. Please don’t pull a Rainbow on me.

Face, a wide open area that leads toward Wanoga Way, is open. “That’s my own little playground over there. It’s awesome.” Goggins says his favorite part of the mountain is around Northwest, with its west bowls and tree skiing opportunities. However, he adds that, “traversing to the east bowls on storm days when Summit is down is tough to beat.” That was the approach my friend Jeremy Dickman and I took earlier this month when headed up to the mountain and, after the requisite wrestling-on of layers and gear, proceeded directly to Rainbow Chair, located just down a short hill from the Sunrise Lodge. As we rode side by side down the short hill to the get-on point, I chirped, over a chorus of nearby sled dogs and their desperate let’s-get-going yelps, something along the lines of, “Aren’t people dumb?” as we left behind the horde of people waiting for a seat on Sunrise Express. But when we got to the bottom of the hill, I learned that I was the actual dumb one (not a first): During our short descent to the chair, we’d failed to notice the fact that it wasn’t moving. The Mt. Bachelor employees cited high winds, which were causing the chairs to swing on their cables and clang against the giant posts stretching up the mountain. It was, for both of us, our first time boarding this winter. Given our rusty skills, we declined an offer to have an employee on a snowmobile tow us, via tow rope. Instead, we hoofed it back to the Sunrise Express Quad to humbly wait with our fellow cattle. The line was so long that it took at least 12.5 minutes just to get on. Once seated, we were whisked up the hill at a velocity somewhere short of the speed barrier, yet far faster than Rainbow. We then headed to the more reasonable lines by Skyliner Express, which offered great riding at tree level. Above there, however, the wind howled, and staying atop our boards as we left was something like trying to stay upright in a wind tunnel with marbles and banana peels lining its floor. With last week’s huge dump of new snow, I was all set to go on Friday, just prior to Presidents Day weekend, which Chris Sabo, Deschutes National Forest trails specialist, says is the busiest holiday weekend of all winter holidays in this neck of the woods. According to conditions posted on its website, www.mtbachelor. com, the mountain had gotten three more inches overnight. But something happened on the way to snowboarding nirvana. I hurt myself skateboarding Thursday night.

SUNDAY

Continued from E1 Given its longevity, Rainbow’s chairs, which seat three — to varying degrees of comfort — have definitely seen better days. Nevertheless, it’s the kind of contraption that you may appreciate even more with time. When I moved from the Florida coast to Bend nearly 10 years ago, Mt. Bachelor was one of the main draws for me. I was a skateboarder who’d dabbled in surfing, skimboarding and wakeboarding, so I figured snowboarding would be easy for me. I rode alone, mostly, and stuck around Sunrise Lodge and rode Marshmallow, an easy green run with lots of “slow” signs, which appealed to a beginner. After teaching myself more about falling than riding my first season on the mountain, I began exploring farther afield: namely, a run named Rooster Tail, which, depending on the turns you take, can land you right at Rainbow. One day I found myself braving a chair that took me higher up the mountain than I’d previously been, and surviving the steep drop of the I-5 run, I headed back for more. I’ve seen a lot of falls, so to speak, in the seasons that have passed, and I have friends I board with now. But for some reason, especially if I’m riding solo that day, I usually prefer Rainbow, while most powder hounds are headed off to Northwest. Tashina Youngstrom tells The Bulletin via e-mail that “On a windy, blustery day as the chair slowly creeps along above the tree line I can find myself chanting to the chair not to break down. It hasn’t left me stranded yet. “In an age of high-speed technology and ‘get there quicker’ mentality, I use the Rainbow Chair for my sanity and my therapy,” adds the Bend snowboarder, telemark skier and Rainbow aficionado. She started riding the Rainbow lift more than 15 years ago, and says, “The 14-minute or so lift time gives me a chance to tune in and slow down.” The ride actually takes 12½ minutes to the top, according to Goggins, but Youngstrom’s right in that it sure seems longer when you’re eager to get off and ride. Once you reach the top, the rewards for your patience are plenty. Youngstrom says she heads to Rainbow when the Summit is open. “I’ll follow the sun,” she says. “When it’s a sunny day, I’ll head over to Rainbow because I know Northwest and Outback are still in the shade.” Specifically, she likes Rainbow when Cow’s

Helping those with hearing loss

Are medical credit cards bad for your health?

get in the loop By Markian Hawryluk The Bulletin

f people with hearing loss can hear better in Bend restaurants this spring, credit a sandwich. It was several months ago that Dave Merrifield, president of the Central Oregon chapter of the Hearing Loss Association of America, stepped into Letzer’s Deli for one of its famously overstuffed meat sandwiches. When he told the cashier of his affiliation, the cashier pointed to the owner, Sheridan Letzer, working in the kitchen. “You ought to take him because he’s hard of hearing and he won’t admit it,” Merrifield recalls the cashier saying. “That’s no problem,” Merrifield replied. “Because seven years is the average for people to admit that they’re hard of hearing. I went 10 years before I finally copped out to it.” It turned out the two had much in com-

mon beyond their hearing loss. Merrifield had owned a restaurant in Bend for 11 years, and he knew what challenges Letzer faced on a daily basis. Acoustics in the deli are challenging at best. The overhead fan required by building codes is noisy, and the hum of the ice maker makes it difficult for even his younger workers to hear. “Because I had hearing loss, I just stayed in the back,” Letzer said. Merrifield invited Letzer to a meeting of his group and eventually donated a pair of his old hearing aids to the deli owner. As they got to talking, Merrifield told Letzer of his plan to install an induction loop system in area restaurants to help those with hearing aids. Letzer was in. “Why wouldn’t I do it?” Letzer said. “I know what it’s like to have severe hearing loss.” See Loop / F6

When the doctor hands you a big bill, what’s the first thing you do? For many people, it’s whip out the plastic. Americans put at least $45 billion in medical costs on their credit cards, according to a report by the consulting firm McKinsey & Company. Many people put the charge on a regular card, but increasingly, people are turning to special credit cards for medical expenses. Credit cards for medical care work much like credit cards

for other types of purchases. A consumer applies, establishes a credit limit based on credit score and income, and is able to use the card anywhere it is accepted. The cards are offered by many of the same companies including JPMorgan Chase & Co., CitiBank and GE Money. GE Money’s CareCredit is particularly popular in Central Oregon. But, unlike regular cards, medical credit cards are marketed through health care providers, who often use the cards as a way for patients to spread payments for a large bill. See Cards / F5

Know your options, know the terms CareCredit and CarePayment are medical cards commonly used to finance medical bills in Central Oregon. Medical credit cards can help people pay bills, but consumers need to be aware of the terms.

Cycle track dilemma Study says defined paths are safer

1 The system consists of a thin wire that is placed around a listening area and connected to an audio loop amplifier and microphone. 2 Speech is amplified and circulated through the audio loop wire, creating a magnetic energy field.

Cars stream by the cycle track along Reed Market Road next to Farewell Bend Park.

Bicyclists are safer riding on cycle tracks than on streets, according to a new study. Cycle tracks are bike-exclusive paths, parallel to a street but separated from traffic by some kind of barrier. While the study’s conclusion might seem obvious at first, there is debate about the safety of cycle tracks because of the ways cars and cyclists could conflict, especially at intersections or road crossings. But it’s not a big issue here in Bend, or across most of the United States, where cycle tracks are still fairly rare. See Bike safety / F4

Following the sound TELECOIL The field is detected and amplified by the telecoil (t-coil), circuitry built into many hearing aids and cochlear implants to make them compatible with telephones.

LISTENING HEARING AID Most modern hearing aids have built in t-coils, but audiologists may have to activate them in order to pick up sounds from the loop.

The t-coil converts the magnetic field into an electrical signal, which the hearing aid then amplifies into the ear.

Next week Some helpful tips on understanding the new nutritional guidelines.

To skip or not to skip breakfast? Local dietitians say new study forgets some crucial points By Anne Aurand The Bulletin

A new study suggests that skipping breakfast is a good way for overweight people to reduce their caloric intake. The study does not conclude that skipping breakfast will result in weight loss, nor does it address the weight-loss tool of metabolism, but its implications nonetheless contradict prevailing wisdom on the topic of weight loss. The study, published in January’s Nutrition Journal, concluded: “Overweight and obese subjects should consider the reduction of breakfast calories as a simple option to improve their daily energy (calorie) balance.” Volker Schusdziarra of the Else-Kröner-Fresenius Center of Nutritional Medicine in Munich, Germany, conducted a study on 100 normal weight and 280 obese people who kept journals recording when and what they ate. Breakfasts ranged from large to small to skipped altogether. “The results of the study showed that people ate the same at lunch and dinner, regardless of what they had for breakfast,” Schusdziarra said in a news release. The study’s overarching point is that people who eat a big breakfast eat about 400 more calories during the course of a day, posing the question, why not eliminate calories wherever possible in the treatment of obesity? But a couple of local dietitians are not persuaded. “I wouldn’t put a lot of emphasis on it,” said Frankie Mauti, a registered dietitian at St. Charles Bend. First, the study was small, she said. And it doesn’t prove a correlation between skipping breakfast and losing weight. In fact, to the contrary, she has seen powerful evidence that people who eat some breakfast can lose or maintain their weight, she said. Another local registered dietitian, Lori Brizee, agrees with Mauti. “I have more people who start losing weight when they start eating breakfast,” Brizee said. “People who don’t eat breakfast end up snacking all night.” Brizee clarified, however, that eating a 1,000-calorie pancake breakfast with butter and syrup will not help a person lose weight. Breakfast should be 300 to 400 calories and should include protein and fiber (see “Healthy breakfast options”). The new study in the Nutrition Journal challenges the common thought that if you eat breakfast you’re less likely to eat more throughout the day. But Mauti said it doesn’t discuss one important part of losing weight: metabolism. She explained: Whenever people eat, it boosts their metabolism. Eating small meals throughout the day periodically charges up the metabolism. Skipping breakfast eliminates that burst of metabolism that would help burn calories over a couple of hours, even while sitting still, she said. Many of her clients tell Mauti that when they eat breakfast they feel more hungry a short time later, and that discourages them. But, she said, “if you feel hungry, it’s a good sign that your metabolism is working.” Lacking the sen-

Although a new study suggests cutting calories by cutting breakfast, dietitians say a healthy breakfast, such as low-fat yogurt, grains and fruit, can help with weight loss.

have much in the way of calories. Neither has fat or cholesterol. Bragg has a few milligrams less of sodium content. The company website says its salty taste comes from the soybeans themselves. The soybeans are also the source of amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins, according to the company. “I don’t think that there is really any benefit to the liquid aminos,” said Williamson, despite the eight essential and eight nonessential amino acids it contains. “The nonessentials do not need to be supplemented in our diet because our bodies make them naturally,” she said, and “the essential amino acids do need to be supplied by food. However, these amino acids are found in foods such as meat, fish, poultry, eggs, dairy, nuts, seeds and whole grains. On average, Americans consume sufficient amounts of these foods, making it unnecessary to supplement.” — Anne Aurand, The Bulletin

Bragg Liquid Aminos is marketed as a healthy substitute for soy sauce. Should you switch? Bragg Liquid Aminos, according to www.bragg.com, “has a small amount of naturally occurring sodium. No table salt is added.” When nutritional labels are analyzed, it turns out Bragg doesn’t have much less sodium than soy sauce. It’s the serving sizes listed on the bottle that are different. Bragg uses half a teaspoon, and soy sauces use a tablespoon. On first glance, sodium content appears lower for Bragg. “One tablespoon of regular soy sauce contains almost a half of a day’s worth of sodium, and low sodium soy sauce contains a quarter of a day’s worth,” said Annie Williamson, a registered dietitian with Bend Memorial Clinic. “Same would be true for the liquid aminos. Both can be difficult to work into your diet if you are trying to limit your sodium intake.” Neither Bragg Liquid Aminos nor soy sauce

Eating a diet rich in fiber has long been known to help keep your digestive tract working properly. It’s also thought to lower the risk of heart disease, some cancers and diabetes. Now, a new study suggests it could reduce the risk of death from cardiovascular, infectious and respiratory diseases. People who ate a high-fiber diet decreased their risk of dying over a nine year period compared to those who ate less fiber, according to a new study in the Archives of Internal Medicine. The findings are based on a diet study from the National Institutes of Health and AARP, which included 219,123 men and 168,999 women ages 50 to 71 when the study began. Researchers from the National Cancer Institute examined food surveys completed by the participants in 1995 or 1996. After nine years about 11,000 people died and researchers used national records to determine the cause. People who ate at least 26 grams per day were 22 percent less likely to die than those

who consumed the least amount of fiber — about 13 grams per day or less. Men and women who consumed diets higher in fiber also had a reduced risk of cardiovascular, infectious and respiratory diseases, the study found. Getting fiber from grains seemed to have the biggest impact, the authors write. The study has some limitations — mainly, people who ate highfiber diets might also have been more likely to eat healthier diets overall, attributing to their longevity. Still, the study offers more evidence that fiber is certainly good for you. So where can you find fiber? Food such as raspberries, lentils, peas and barley and oat bran are packed with fiber.

A cycle track is a barrier-protected, bicycle-exclusive path separate from the road and beside the sidewalk. Sometimes cycle tracks have parallel parked cars between the cycle track and the road. In other instances, cycle tracks have a raised curb, delineator posts, or grass between the road and the cycle track.

Barre3 is a unique fusion of ballet, yoga and Pilates, intended to balance, strengthen and lengthen the body. This is the fourth in a series of five exercises to run in The Bulletin on Thursdays. Target area: Hamstrings, back, gluteus maximus, spine, core. How to do it: Press hands into the back of a chair or kitchen counter in front of you. Take a big step back with the right foot, both legs bent (1). With left knee directly above left ankle, lean forward and shift onto the left leg. Raise the right leg by engaging the glutes (2). Keep your hips level and your spine long while you straighten legs. Step back into bent legs and repeat 10 to 15 times. Then switch legs and do the other side. — Anne Aurand, The Bulletin

Sidewalk Cycle track

Bike-travel options Anne Lusk, from the Harvard School of Public Health, described four primary options for bike transportation. Sidewalk 1. In the road with cars, when the biker behaves like Cycle track the driver of a car. Delineator posts 2. Within a painted line that delineates a bike lane, often right beside the car lane. These are common on major roads in Bend. 3. On a shared-use path that is also for pedestrians, dog walkers and joggers. An example of this in Bend is Greg Cross / The Bulletin Source: www.portlandize.com parallel to Skyliners Road, west of Northwest 17th Street. 4. On a cycle track, a barrier-protected, bicycleexclusive path parallel to a road and beside a sidewalk. The closest thing Bend has is along Reed Market Road, between the Bill Healy Bridge and Brookswood Boulevard. A study published in the journal Injury Prevention compared bike-vehicle accidents between #1 and #4.

On the local side The Reed Market cycle track is separated from traffic by being raised above the street level, but the curb is slanted and flows into the road. It doesn’t have a distinct buffer between the cars and the bike path, so it might not be ideal for children who could accidentally roll into the road. But it’s a good start, she said. “Better to have a start and make improvements” than to shun cycle tracks all together. Many towns in this country don’t have any. Portland, known as a bike-friendly community, is developing and studying them. Bend city officials are also in conceptual stages of planning a new buffered bike lane system for Riverside Boulevard and Franklin Avenue. It’s worth noting that Bend has roughly 96 miles of bike lanes along major roadways, called arterials and collectors. This includes some areas outside city limits, according to Rick Root with the city of Bend. He also added that in addition to the cycle track on Reed Market Road, a bike path along Colorado Avenue and Century Drive between Simpson Avenue and Mt. Washington Drive resembles a cycle track. Even if many studies prove that cycle tracks encourage more cyclists and are safe for riders, there are other obstacles to building them. In many places around Bend, the city doesn’t have enough room within its rights of way to build a cycle track next to a road, said Robin Lewis, a city transportation engineer. Steve Jorgensen, a planner for 25 years for various agencies in California and Oregon who has a particular interest in transportation issues and cycling, added that the cost and effort of

adding that perhaps cycle tracks would entice more families with children, or seniors or anyone intimidated by riding in traffic. Lusk is already working on another study about cycle tracks’ safety in the United States, and it includes Bend’s cycle track on Reed Market Road between the Bill Healy Bridge and Brookswood Boulevard. But she’s not saying anything about her results yet.

A major obstacle to building cycle tracks in the United States has been the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials development guide for bicycle facilities. It cautions against building physically separated two-way paths near a parallel road, citing safety concerns associated with two-way bike traffic. However, cycle tracks are not specifically named in the guidelines. Jeff Monson, executive director of Commute Options in Bend and a regular bike commuter, said he shares some of the concern. Drivers might not be aware of cycle track riders when they cross intersections or driveways. Or, drivers approaching an intersection might not look in the direction that cyclists are coming from on a two-way cycle track alongside a road. Monson prefers the idea of separate trails for bikers to use, something akin to the shared path parallel to Skyliners Road, which doesn’t really intersect roads. However, he also says bike commuters need interconnected bike lanes along the busy streets that get to the same places that cars are going. Bend is just beginning to explore ways to turn streets into more friendly bike-transportation routes. Lusk said there are design solutions to improve cycle track safety at intersections, which have worked in the Netherlands and Denmark where cycle tracks are prevalent. Signals on the cycle tracks, for example, can allow cyclists to proceed only with a green light that indicates it’s safe to go. And cars can be prohibited from right turns on red lights to avoid crossing a cycle track. Because of the prevalence of cycle tracks, according to the study, 27 percent of Dutch trips are made by bicycle and 55 percent of the riders are women. In the United States, 0.5 percent of commuters bike to work, and 24 percent of adult cyclists are women. “We’re comparing two slightly different things,” Lusk said. Each country has different kinds of data that Lusk used for the study. In the U.S., she said, the numbers include only adults 16 and older who bike to work. That’s going to count fewer people than the data from the Netherlands, which also counts bike trips to the grocery store, the park, or just for fun. “Still, it’s quite a big difference,” she said. Also, the injury rate per distance biked is at least 26 times greater in the United States than in the Netherlands. The national transportation development guide for bike facilities says that bicyclists in the United States prefer riding in the roadway instead of on a shareduse path because they are better maintained or more convenient. Lusk wonders who those bicyclists are, because it takes a confident and aggressive rider to join car traffic. She believes the American guidelines have been based predominantly on the perceptions of male riders. The rider has to pedal, steer and look over the left shoulder while navigating traffic, she said,

Continued from F1 The leader of the study, Anne Lusk, who has a doctorate in architecture, is a research associate at the Harvard School of Public Health. She hopes the new information will inspire further examination of cycle track safety and will encourage their development. The availability of cycle tracks entices people to bike commute, and bike riding is great for health and weight management, Lusk said. The study, conducted in Montreal, Canada, which has a longstanding network of cycle tracks, compared data for vehicle/bicycle crashes on six cycle tracks and comparable streets. The overall risk rate of injury was 28 percent lower on cycle tracks. And 2.5 times as many cyclists used the cycle tracks than alternate streets, according to the study, recently published in the journal Injury Prevention. Cycle tracks are not to be confused with bike lanes, which are separated from car lanes by only a paint stripe on the road. And bike-exclusive cycle tracks differ from multiuse paths, which bikers share with joggers or dog walkers.

EXERCISE TIPS

building and maintaining cycle tracks can be more than bike lanes. A lot of the obstacles come from public sentiment. Some people think bikes should be for recreation, not transportation. It’s also a tough political decision to shift urban design

standards, he said, and often, “traditional traffic engineers are more concerned with maximizing traffic volume and flow than overall livability issues.” Anne Aurand can be reached at 541-383-0304 or at aaurand@bendbulletin.com.

Shopping for workout gear can be, well, a workout. Some tips: Determine your goals. Certain machines (treadmills, stairsteppers) are ideal for burning calories and losing weight. Other equipment (weight benches, squat machines) is better for gaining muscle and strength. Think about what you enjoy. If you hate climbing stairs, you’ll probably dread getting on a stair-stepper. If you love brisk walks, you’re more likely

to embrace your treadmill. Take measurements at home. Make sure equipment will fit well into available space. That space also should have needed electrical outlets, a good ventilation system and possibly noise buffers such as rubber floor mats. Take a test drive. Wear workout clothes when you shop and see how equipment feels. You also may be able to arrange a limited trial period at home, with an option to return equipment for a refund or store credit.

M Gender gap in physician salaries For nearly all physician specialties, women make less than men, at least in the beginning of their careers, according to a recent study. The study, published in the journal Health Affairs, examined the salaries of physicians leaving residency programs in New York state and concluded that, overall, women make about 15 percent less than their male counterparts. The authors theorized that the disparity reflects different job preferences of women, such as more flexible hours, that offset their lower pay. Mean starting salary

Continued from F1 In Central Oregon, providers ranging from specialists’ offices to dental practices to veterinary clinics use CareCredit plans. “We do get quite a few (patients) that use this card,” said Abby Heller, who works in the billing department at Bend Urology, which uses CareCredit. Heller said she thinks the cards are a good idea for many people. “A lot of places won’t accept small payments, like $50,” she said. So, for consumers who can’t pay hundreds or thousands of dollars for one medical bill, this offers a way to make payments over time.

Proceed with caution The big advantage with medical credit cards is that they often offer a period of time during which there is no interest. Depending on the health care provider and the card, patients may be able to go six to 24 months without paying interest on their balance. There are, however, some caveats, and consumers need to be vigilant in how they use them. Attorneys general in at least two states, Minnesota and New York, initiated investigations into the marketing practices of medical credit cards. New York specifically targeted CareCredit. Both offices expressed concerns that consumers were getting hit with high bills and interest rates that weren’t fully explained. “This is not easy to follow if you don’t watch it carefully,” said Terri Rahmsdorff, a board member at Central Oregon Low Income Kooperative, often known as COLINK, which helps advise people on how to deal with medical bills. For example, people with CareCredit get a specific period of time to pay off their balance. However, according to the CareCredit terms on its website, if people miss a payment or do not pay the full balance within a specified period, they will be responsible for all the interest accrued from the purchase date. That could be substantial. Right now, the annual percentage rate for the card is 26.99 percent. Also, even if people pay the minimum balance listed on their statement, they may not pay the bill off within the zerointerest period. “Like any other debt obligation, you must know what you’re getting into before you get into it,” said Rahmsdorff, who has worked in the financial industry for more than 40 years. “It’s set up so that if I don’t meet the expectations, there are some pretty heavyduty penalties.” Rahmsdorff said people need to make sure, before they sign up for the card, that they know what they’ll need to pay each month, and that they can afford it. “After you get into it, it’s really hard to get things changed.”

CarePayment Another popular card in Central Oregon is CarePay-

ment, issued through St. Charles Health System. Patients can put a charge between $250 and $10,000 onto the CarePayment card and pay it off over 25 months with no interest. Though CarePayment looks like a credit card, it is not, said Garth Massey, head of client services for the company. The purpose of the card, he said, is to give people a way to pay large charges over time, not to allow them to pay for multiple purchases in one place. “You can’t rack up charges.” The cards can be used only at the hospital through which they are issued, and there is no credit or income qualification as there is with credit cards. In addition, Massey said, CarePayment does not guarantee the funds to the hospital. If patients default on their terms, CarePayment will make some attempt to collect the money but will ultimately turn the account back over to the hospital rather than go through a formal collections process. “The basic idea is we’re funding the hospital’s loans.” But, Massey said, “if you choose not to make your payment, the hospital has underwritten the loans.” The card does not charge interest, instead requiring cardholders to pay off the full balance within 25 months or risk default. CarePayment makes money, Massey said, by taking a percentage of the total bill in return for managing the account. For example, for a hospital bill of $1,000 put on CarePayment, the hospital may get $800 and CarePayment would take $200. The cards can help patients spread payments over time but can become the source of excess debt if not handled well. “I need to know what the payments are going to be so I know if I can make those payments,” said Rahmsdorff. “If I don’t make my payments, I’m going to end up in collections. And that doesn’t help anybody.” Betsy Q. Cliff can be reached at 541-383-0375 or bcliff@bendbulletin.com.

Loop

CELEBRITY M EDICINE Those diagnosed with sarcoidosis usually don’t need treatment

Continued from F1 Now Letzer’s Deli will be among the first four restaurants in Bend, along with Chan’s, The Phoenix and Carino’s Italian Restaurant, to implement the system. “Seventeen percent of the population is hard of hearing, and there’s a great deal more coming online because of the baby boomers becoming 65,” Merrifield said. “Finally we’ve got something for us.”

Magnetic field Induction loop systems are rather simple in design. A wire is looped around the perimeter of the room, then connected to an amplifier along with a microphone. When sound travels through the wire loop, it creates a magnetic field that can be picked up by hearing aids equipped with a special coil of wire, known as a t-coil. Inside the loop, anyone with a t-coil can hear the sound transmitted through the system loud and clear, free from the background noise that can dominate a public setting. Most newer hearing aids have a built-in t-coil, although not all audiologists activate the coil unless the patient has a particular need for it. Induction loops are commonplace in restaurants in Europe but have been used in the U.S. primarily to accommodate large groups in churches, classrooms or conference rooms. The hearing-loss group is asking restaurants that want to install a loop system to dedicate a separate room or a small area of their restaurant for the hearing impaired and to make changes to the decor to make it more hearing-friendly. This area would have microphones on each table, but the loop systems can accommodate only one hearing impaired party at a time. Three families could not have three separate conversations within a single loop. According to Emilie Hart-Hutter, an audiologist with Central Oregon Ear, Nose and Throat, restaurant settings are notoriously difficult for those with impaired hearing for a number of reasons. “One is the acoustics of restaurants, especially what’s popular right now — the factory-type loft restaurants with high ceilings and open booths and music going,” she said. “Sound just reverberates everywhere so it’s difficult even for someone with normal hearing.” Most hearing aids, she said, pick up low-frequency sounds better than high-frequency sounds. In noisy environments like restaurants there can be too much of that low-frequency noise. “You’re going to hear the vowel sounds which carry the sounds in speech, but you’re not going to hear the consonants,” she explained. “You’re not going to get the clarity, just the vowel guttural sounds.” Restaurants with low ceilings, curtains and carpeting tend to absorb more of the ambient noise, but even the softest decor can present a challenge. Many people with hearing impairment learn to read lips to fill in the gaps in their hearing. But servers often aren’t looking at the individual with hearing loss when they present the specials or take an order. “Universally, people with hearing loss and restaurants are a bad mix,” Hart-Hutter said. Induction loop systems, she said, are effective but can require a lot of ongoing maintenance and support to keep them working. “It’s going to be tough, and there are going to be stumbling blocks,” she said. “But somebody really had to take the first step, and I think others will eventually follow.”

Funding challenge Although the four Bend restaurants have agreed to install the systems, it’s still unclear who will pay for them. According to Steve Berhar, owner of Stereo Planet who will install the systems locally, each setup will cost about $700 to $1,000. The Hearing Loss Association may try to raise funds to pay for the sys-

Sheridan Letzer, owner of Letzer’s Deli, is installing an induction loop system in his Bend restaurant to help people with hearing aids hear better.

tems, or restaurant owners may foot the bill themselves. Merrifield said two additional restaurants in Bend are also considering installing loop systems. Merrifield had hoped that the city of Bend would fund the systems for restaurants or waive building permit fees to offset the costs of installation as part of its efforts to promote accessibility under the Americans with Disability Act. The city, he complained, has focused solely on access for those with physical disabilities, requiring curb cuts and access ramps of restaurants. “We’re the invisible disability,” he said. “We hide ourselves. The audiologists always make a big deal about hiding the hearing aids. They need to be bigger, and they should have flashing lights.” But Susan Duncan, accessibility manager for the city, said while she supports improving conditions for the hearing impaired, no such funds are available. “Our support will be whatever we can do to continue to increase awareness, support in education or anything that we can do that would be non-monetary,” she said. While Duncan is sympathetic to the difficulties faced by hearing-impaired patrons — her husband is hearing impaired and avoids noisy restaurants — she sees a fundamental difference between handicapped access and the ability to hear when dining out. “One is having a complete barrier that is keeping you literally from getting up the steps and into a building, versus someone’s ability to get into a building but they can’t enjoy the environment,” she said. “It’s a quality-oflife issue.”

Attracting customers While Merrifield would like to see more accommodation for patrons with hearing loss, he doesn’t want it to become another mandate for restaurants or other businesses. “I would like to see things be totally voluntary. If you want to have a noisy place, go ahead, please do. We don’t want you to have to provide something,” Merrifield said. “But the ones that do provide it will get my business.” The hearing-loss group is planning to distribute signs to restaurants that implement the system to let patrons know, and are considering measuring decibel levels in area restaurants to recognize those that are “hearing-friendly.” Chan’s owner Lap Chan said he decided to install the new system in an effort to better serve his customers. “I don’t see that much demand for it, but some people have let us know they had trouble hearing when they come to eat in our

place,” he said. “So we thought, ‘Why don’t we do it and give our customers extra service?’” Chan is completing a restoration of his restaurant after an August fire and expects to reopen in late March with the hearing loop system in place. Many people believe that restaurants that cater to those with hearing impairment or other disabilities may soon gain a competitive advantage. As baby boomers age, businesses are likely to see more and more people with

physical, sensory and even cognitive challenges, and will have to consider new ways to accommodate such patrons. “The graying of America is going to touch us like we’ve never been touched before,” Duncan said. “We’re going to see such an impact, but people don’t know what to do yet.” If restaurateurs and hearingloss advocates can work out the kinks and successfully implement systems in a number of restaurants, Duncan believes Bend could be a trailblazer in improving access. “I think we become the role model and everybody will desire to be like us,” Duncan said. “We’ll show them that it works and then others will want to build it in their communities.” Markian Hawryluk can be reached at 541-617-7814 or mhawryluk@bendbulletin.com.

Take the pain out of shoveling McClatchy-Tribune News Service Make no mistake, shoveling snow in the winter provides a tremendous workout. It works all sorts of muscles and burns calories. If you’re not careful, though, shoveling can also result in severe back injury or, even worse, a heart attack. Clearing a driveway or sidewalk of snow requires preparation and proper body mechanics. Allow yourself plenty of time to shovel. The activity should not be rushed. Dress warmly in layered clothing. But don’t bundle up to the point that your clothes restrict movement. Keep your field of vision clear and unobstructed by objects, such as a scarf. Limber up. Do some light

stretching (10 minutes or so) before shoveling. Find a shovel that suits your body size. A shovel that is heavy or longer than necessary can lead to muscle strain. Hit the fresh stuff. Newly fallen snow is easier to shovel than older, packed snow. And keep an eye out for ice patches. Not only can ice cause you to slip and fall, it also can cause you to strain a muscle. Push, don’t lift. Keep your shoveling motion steady with few twists and turns. Push snow forward or to the side, not over your back. Heed the signs. If you experience chest pain or shortness of breath, stop shoveling immediately.
