Trillions off debt, tempered with taxing the rich

COCC approves 8.5% tuition hike Third straight increase in as many years

By Sheila G. Miller The Bulletin

The Central Oregon Community College board of directors on Wednesday voted unanimously to implement an 8.5 percent tuition hike for

the 2011-12 school year to deal with a continued state funding decrease.

Tuition will increase by $6, to $76 per credit for in-district students. Outof-district and border-state students will see a $5 per-credit increase, to

$101 per credit. Out-of-state students will face a $9 per-credit increase to $204 per credit.

It’s the third tuition increase in the past three school years. Between 2006 and 2009, the college did not raise tuition.

In fall 2009, tuition rose $3 per credit for in-district students and in

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama made the case Wednesday for slowing the rapid growth of the national debt while retaining core Democratic values, proposing a mix of long-term spending cuts, tax increases and changes to social welfare programs as his opening position in a partisan budget battle over the nation’s fiscal challenges.

After spending months on the sidelines as Republicans laid out their plans, Obama jumped in to present an alternative and a philosophical rebuttal to the conservative approach that will reach the “If we truly House floor Friday. Republican believe in a leaders were working Wednesday progressive to round up votes for that measure vision of our and one to finance the governsociety, we ment for the rest of the fiscal year. have the Obama said his proposal would obligation to cut federal budget deficits by a cuprove that we mulative $4 trillion over 12 years, can afford our compared with a deficit reduction commitments.” of $4.4 trillion over 10 years in the — President Republican plan. But the president Barack Obama said he would use starkly different means, rejecting the fundamental changes to Medicare and Medicaid proposed by Republicans and relying in part on tax increases on affluent Americans.

The president framed his proposal as a balanced alternative to the Republican plan, setting the stage for a debate that will consume Washington in coming weeks, as the administration faces off with Congress over raising the national debt ceiling, and into next year, as the president runs for re-election.

For all the complaining this time of year, most Americans actually think the taxes they pay are fair.

Not that they’re cheering. Fewer people expect refunds this year than in previous years, a new survey indicates. But as Monday’s filing deadline approaches, the poll shows that 54 percent believe their tax bills are either somewhat fair or very fair, compared with 46 percent who say they are unfair.

Should taxes be raised to eat into huge federal deficits? Among the public, 62 percent say they favor cutting government services to sop up the red ink.

Just 29 percent say raise taxes.

Jim Martel is not one of those people. The Weymouth, Mass., electrician said his tax bill is already unfair, but he would be willing to pay more if he thought the money would be spent wisely; he’s not optimistic. “That’s what bothers me,” he said.

Judging Obama’s plan against Ryan’s President Barack Obama has outlined sharp differences with House Republicans over how to tackle the rising national debt. On Wednesday, Obama responded to a Republican blueprint proposed recently by House Budget Chairman Paul Ryan that would cut spending by $6 trillion compared with Obama’s 2012 budget, proposed in February, largely by reductions to Medicare and Medicaid. On Wednesday, Obama insisted on the need for a combination of cuts to defense spending, a reduction in Medicare and Medicaid costs and increases in taxes on the rich.

With spending projected to soar as the population ages and baby boomers retire, neither Obama nor Ryan is proposing any changes to the program.

In public remarks, Obama has played down the need for reform. Ryan, in contrast, has praised proposals to raise the retirement age and curtail benefits for well-off retirees, while proposing legislation that would force an overhaul as soon as next year.

Obama and Ryan take the same approach to defense spending, seeking savings recommended by the Pentagon but otherwise allowing spending to continue to rise gradually over the next decade. Ryan would also fully fund Obama's request for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

2012

2021

Income security includes things such as food stamps, unemployment insurance and housing assistance. Ryan would cut funding for this category. His plan would overhaul the way the government gives out food stamps, limiting the amount of money each state can receive and making the aid contingent on work or job training.

2012

2021

Obama has proposed no significant changes to the program since signing a health care initiative last year that would sharply restrain spending. Ryan proposes to radically overhaul the program beginning in 2022, replacing traditional Medicare benefits with government support to purchase private insurance.

2021

Ryan proposes a repeal of Obama’s far-reaching initiative to extend coverage to the uninsured, reining in spending on Medicaid and on subsidies, and tax breaks for middle- and lower-income people to buy insurance.

AVERTING THE SHUTDOWN: FRIDAY’S AGREEMENT

Details of deal: Cuts spread the pain The Washington Post The $38 billion in spending cuts that President Barack Obama and congressional leaders agreed to last week are spread over a multitude of domestic programs across virtually the entire federal government. The budget compromise reached Friday that averted a government shutdown includes the biggest spending reductions since World War II. If passed, the bipartisan budget would fund the government through the rest of fiscal 2011, which ends Sept. 30.

The scope and reach of the spending cuts became clear Tuesday, when the House Appropriations Committee introduced a 459-page bill that puts the framework of the deal into legislative language. The House is expected to vote on the measure today, with the Senate likely to take it up before lawmakers in both chambers depart Friday for a two-week recess. Although some conservative and liberal lawmakers have objected to the compromise, House and Senate leaders expect the bill to pass. • Veterans Affairs: $400 million could be cut. The Department of Veterans Affairs would lose about $400 million in funding, linked mostly to information-technology contracts and construction projects. But the vast majority of the department’s budget is on a multi-year cycle and would not be affected by this year’s cuts. • Transportation: Department would lose $400 million. The budget measure contains no funding for high-speed rail in 2011 and would rescind $400 million from the $2.4 billion available in 2010 funding. Last week, 24 states, the District of Columbia and Amtrak submitted 98 applications with funding requests totaling more than $10 billion. • Interior: Endangered-species program would lose $25 million. • Agriculture: Funding to help farmers and ranchers develop conservation plans would be cut by more than $300 million. Rehabilitation programs for fragile watershed areas would be reduced by $165 million, and wetlandsprotection programs would lose $176 million.

• Environmental Protection Agency: EPA would lose $1.35 billion. The measure would cut about 15 percent of the Environmental Protection Agency’s budget, greatly diminishing a program that provides money to states to reduce water pollution. • Securities and Exchange Commission: Agency would receive $74 million more. The Securities and Exchange Commission would receive a 7 percent increase under the budget bill. The measure would give the agency $1.19 billion — $74 million more than 2010 levels. • Housing and Urban Development: Community development would lose $942 million.

The budget legislation would cut $942 million from the Community Development Fund, which includes block grants designed to help rehabilitate housing and invest in primarily low-income neighborhoods. • Homeland Security: $784 million would be cut. The Department of Homeland Security would escape major cuts, with discretionary funding down 2 percent from the 2010 budget, or $784 million.

Officials stressed that all frontline operations — including U.S. Customs and Border Protection, the Coast Guard, the Secret Service, and the Transportation Security Administration — would sustain staffing levels. The bill would reduce FEMA first-responder grants by $786 million, eliminate $264 million that was targeted for earmarks and rescind $557 million in balances from prior-year funding. • Labor: $870 million less for jobs programs, workers. The Labor Department would lose $870 million for the rest of the fiscal year from job training and creation programs, community college curriculums for dislocated workers, and a fund that aims to prepare workers for green jobs. • Science and Technology: Science Foundation would lose $53 million. The National Science Foundation would take a $53 million cut from its $6.9 billion budget, meaning it would fund 134 fewer grants to outside researchers than it did in fiscal 2010, said

an agency spokeswoman, a loss of support for 1,500 researchers and support personal. • Energy: $170 million would go toward credit subsidy. Despite widespread anxiety among developers of alternative-energy projects, the budget deal would not make cuts in an Energy Department program that provides loan guarantees to renewable energy, electric power transmission systems and biofuels projects that begin construction by Sept. 30. • State: $8 billion in cuts include Economic Support Fund. The State Department would take an $8 billion hit, much of it in cuts to foreign aid. Other programs facing major reductions include the Peace Corps and those that encourage educational exchanges and reduce the threat from weapons of mass destruction. • Justice: $1 billion in cuts would not have major impact. • Health and Human Services: $17 million less for family-planning aid. The bill would reduce by $17 million, or 5 percent, funding for family-planning services provided by organizations such as Planned Parenthood. But many cuts would affect programs that Obama had already proposed scaling back or ending.

Similarly, although the legislation would eliminate $600 million in discretionary funding for community health centers, the effect would be lessened by the $1 billion in mandatory funding automatically directed to such centers through the health care law adopted last year. That increase in spending would push the budget up by $14.9 billion, to $573 billion.

The deal would slash $2.2 billion, or one-third, of a $6 billion program in the health care law that subsidizes loans to civic and community groups that form not-for-profit insurance cooperatives. The bill also would cut $3.5 billion set aside to reward states that make an extra effort to enroll eligible low-income children in the Children’s Health Insurance Program. • Education: $1.3 billion less than last year. The budget bill would make modest cuts to several Education Department initia-

tives, leaving overall funding $1.3 billion lower than last year, according to a summary released by a Senate committee. The measure would preserve the Pell Grant program, the largest source of need-based grants to college students, with the maximum grant remaining at $5,550. The measure would provide $700 million for Race to the Top, the administration’s signature initiative to spur

reform in K-12 education. Obama had requested $1.3 billion. • Defense: Pentagon would receive $5 billion more. The Defense Department would be allocated $513 billion, a $5 billion increase from 2010 levels, making the Pentagon one of the few agencies to receive a boost in the budget bill.

The legislation also would put an additional $157.8 billion toward overseas contingency operations.

T S Allies agree on aid for rebels Mubarak, EGYPT

Bulletin wire reports

DOHA, Qatar — NATO, Arab and African ministers agreed Wednesday “to work urgently” with the Libyan rebels to set up a mechanism by which some frozen assets belonging to Moammar Gadhafi might be transferred to the rebel cause.

The agreement came at the first meeting between representatives of the NATO-led coalition, regional leaders and the rebels in a closed-door conference here that was billed as the

beginning of a continuing dialogue.

The meeting came at a time of growing frictions among the allied countries and with the rebels themselves over how much military force to apply on the Gadhafi regime.

But those divisions were set aside — for the moment, at least. “This is the money of the Libyans, not of Colonel Gadhafi,” said the Italian foreign minister, Franco Frattini, who added that the assistance would be aimed “at humanitarian and daily needs.”

Rebel leaders in Benghazi received the news as an indication that the international community was prepared to sell them weapons in their struggle to overthrow Gadhafi.

U.S. airstrikes continue Meanwhile, in Washington, Pentagon officials disclosed Wednesday that U.S. warplanes had continued to strike targets in Libya even after the Obama administration said the

United States was stepping back and letting NATO take the lead.

Although U.S. officials had said that no aircraft would fly offensive strike missions, unless officially approved in Washington, 11 warplanes have flown 97 sorties designed to electronically jam or otherwise suppress Libyan air defenses since April 4, when command of the mission was handed over to NATO and the United States publicly said it was stepping back to a supporting role.

B Bloomberg, Clinton unite climate groups New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg and former President Bill Clinton, two of the most influential spokesmen for environmental sustainability, will merge their global climate groups under a plan announced Wednesday.

The new organization will combine C40, a coalition of international cities run by Bloomberg, and the Clinton Climate Initiative, a project of Clinton’s philanthropic foundation, doubling the groups’ annual budgets and staff.

At a time when domestic legislation and international treaties to address global warming have stalled, the merger represents a major bet on the future of populous cities like New York, Seoul and Tokyo as laboratories for experimentation and action.

Gitmo recidivism rate drops, diplomat says U.S. intelligence agencies have concluded that three of the 68 Guantanamo detainees released since Barack Obama became president have engaged in terrorism or insurgency, a senior administration told Congress Wednesday.

U.S. Ambassador Dan Fried, the diplomat who arranged many of the releases, revealed the figure during questioning at a House Armed Services Committee hearing.

The rate of so-called returnto-battlefield detainees is far less than what the Defense Intelligence Agency determined it was during the Bush administration. In a report released in December, the DIA reported that 79 of 532 detainees released during the Bush administration had engaged in terrorism or insurgency.

Bay of Pigs veterans honored, 50 years on Fifty years ago, a group of Cuban exiles who eagerly volunteered for a clandestine mission to topple Fidel Castro were left largely abandoned in Cuba when U.S. support for the mission evaporated.

The Bay of Pigs would go down as one of the United States’ biggest strategic blunders: More than 100 men were killed, and Castro stayed. But the survivors of Brigade 2506 have never lost their resolve.

On Wednesday, eight of the estimated 1,100 surviving members basked in a congressional salute: a resolution put into the Senate record and remarks from the floor of the House.

War crime arrests for 2 in Northwest SEATTLE — Two naturalized U.S. citizens, living in Washington state and Oregon, were arrested Wednesday over allegations of war crimes in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

That country requested the arrest of Edin Dzeko, 39, of Everett, Wash., and Rasema Handanovic, 39, of Beaverton, according to the U.S. Attorney’s offices in Portland and Seattle.

Both are accused of being members of a Bosnian Army unit that attacked a village where 16 civilians were killed.

They would have been 18 at the time of the 1993 attack.

Extradition hearings will come at a later time — From wire reports

Italian Coast Guard via The Associated Press

Two women drowned while attempting to reach Italy from North Africa on Wednesday after their boat, with 250 aboard, ran aground off the Italian island of Pantelleria. Italy’s coast guard said the boat was likely carrying sub-Saharan Africans. Tensions have risen recently between Italy and its European Union partners over how to handle an influx of African immigrants. Italy had been calling on its fellow EU members to help share the burden of receiving the more than 22,000 immigrants who have arrived in the country since January, the majority of them “economic migrants” from Tunisia seeking work in France and elsewhere in Europe.

Spent fuel rods add to trouble at nuke plant

By Mari Yamaguchi and Shino Yuasa The Associated Press

TOKYO — The operator of Japan’s tsunami-flooded nuclear power complex was seeking ways earlier today to pull damaged spent fuel rods out of a storage pool for one of the plant’s reactors, citing surging radiation and elevated temperatures as worrisome signs.

The troubling signals at the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear complex come as frustrations grow with Tokyo Electric Power Co.’s handling of the crisis, which has progressed fitfully since a March 11 tsunami swamped the plant, knocking out crucial cooling systems. Restoring them will take months.

Frequent aftershocks from the magnitude 9.0 earthquake that triggered the monstrous waves are unwelcome reminders of the disaster and are impeding work on the cooling systems.

Updating the toll Authorities say Japan’s earthquake and tsunami killed 13,439 people and left 14,867 missing. The number of missing has risen in recent days as local police in some devastated communities belatedly reported to higher authorities.

The government earlier this week revised its rating of the severity of the crisis to level 7, the worst possible on an international scale.

The only other level 7 was the 1986 Chernobyl disaster, though that explosion released 10 times the radioactivity that has come from Fukushima Dai-ichi so far.

TEPCO officials said Wednesday they were discussing ways to eventually remove spent fuel rods from storage pools as the plant is closed down for good.

CDC: Half of adults take vitamins, supplements

By Mike Stobbe The Associated Press

About half of U.S. adults take vitamins and other dietary supplements — a level that’s been holding steady for much of the past decade, new government figures show. But the data also show a booming number of older women are taking calcium.

Federal officials released figures Wednesday showing that the use of dietary supplements has grown since the early 1990s when it was about 42 percent. The data shows use leveled off in 2003 through 2008, with about half of adults 20 and older taking at least one dietary supplement.

The biggest change was for calcium. Two-thirds of women 60 and older take it, up from 28 percent in the early 1990s. Experts

note the ranks of the elderly have been growing, and include many women who have been encouraged for years to take calcium to help protect against osteoporosis.

The information comes from national, in-home surveys in 19881994 and 2003-2008. The surveys in the past decade included more than 2,000 people each year. Interviewers not only asked participants what supplements they took, but also asked to see the bottles to verify their answers.

Use of multivitamins — the most popular supplement — crept up to nearly 40 percent.

Most people who take vitamins and other supplements are educated, have good incomes, eat pretty well and already get the nutrients they need from their diets, the surveys suggests.

CAIRO — Ousted President Hosni Mubarak and his two sons were detained Wednesday for investigation of corruption, abuse of power and killings of protesters, bringing cheers of victory from activists who hoped it marked a Hosni Mubaturning point in Egypt’s turbulent rak’s house transition to democracy. arrest is a The 82-year-old Mubarak was watershed under detention in a hospital, a moment for step prosecutors depicted as a Egypt’s protest precaution to monitor his health movement. while under questioning.

His sons Gamal, once seen as Mubarak’s successor, and Alaa, a wealthy businessman, were jailed in Cairo’s Torah prison, where a string of former top regime figures — including Mubarak’s prime minister, ruling party chief and chief of staff — are already languishing, facing similar investigations.

The detention of the man who ruled Egypt unquestioned for 29 years set a new landmark in the already unprecedented wave of upheaval shaking the Middle East. It was arguably the first time an authoritarian leader in the Arab world has been brought to justice by his own people, given that Saddam Hussein was toppled by U.S. troops, who handed him over for trial and execution by Iraq’s new Shiite rulers.

Corruption had been rife under Mubarak’s regime. In a country where 40 percent of the population lives on $2 a day or less, many resented the business tycoon-politicians elevated to power by Gamal Mubarak and accused of looting the nation’s coffers to enrich themselves.

The detention was a significant victory for Egypt’s protest movement, which has been in an increasingly tense tug-of-war with the country’s new military rulers over the shape of the post-Mubarak future. Protesters have been pushing hard for the apparently reluctant military to prosecute Mubarak.

Suicide bomber strikes Afghan elders

MOM DRIVES VAN INTO HUDSON, KILLING SELF, 3 KIDS

by Sangar Rahimi and Alissa J. Rubin New York Times News Service

KABUL, Afghanistan — A suicide bomber on foot detonated himself Wednesday as tribal elders left a meeting in a remote mountain village in eastern Afghanistan, killing one of the most senior local figures and 11 other people including five schoolboys.

The meeting, which was being held to resolve local disputes in Jaja village in Asmar District of Kunar province, included some of the most powerful local leaders, including Haji Malik Zareen, a commander who was killed in the attack and was renowned for fighting the Russians when they occupied Afghanistan, said Gen. Khalilullah Zaiyee, provincial police chief.

The police were investigating the attack and said they did not know who was responsible. The Education Ministry in a statement said that among those killed were five boys under 15 and that two of the five were brothers.

Taliban claims no responsibility In a rare disavowal, a spokesman for the Taliban denied that anyone linked to them had played a role in the attack. In a number of recent suicide attacks, even ones involving civilian deaths, the Taliban have offered explanations about why they carried out the assault.

“After our investigation and assessments, we found that Mujahedeen of Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan is not involved in the attack on Commander Haji Malik Zareen and his fellow tribesmen,” said Zabiullah Mujahid, the Taliban’s spokesman for the north and east of the country. “We are not claiming the responsibility for the attack.

The area where the attack occurred has leafy green valleys amid towering boulder-strewn mountains crisscrossed by footpaths and lumber trails that lead across the nearby border with Pakistan. While Taliban and even foreign fighters, particularly Pakistanis, are known to travel through the area, much of the activity is criminal and involves fighting between local clans over timber, gem smuggling and land.

Cynthia Beadle, of Newburgh, N.Y., leaves a stuffed teddy bear in the water where, on Tuesday night, a woman upset with the father of her children packed her four youngsters into her minivan and drove into the frigid Hudson River, killing everyone except her 10-year-old son, who managed to roll down a window of the sinking vehicle and swim to shore. The dead youngsters ranged in age from 11 months to 5 years. A relative had called police Tuesday night to report a dispute at the home of Lashanda Armstrong, 25. Shortly afterward, she drove off a boat ramp several blocks away from her apartment in this struggling city 60 miles north of New York City.

Belarus: Subway bombing solved New York Times News Service MINSK, Belarus — The president of Belarus, Aleksandr Lukashenko, announced Wednesday that the security services had already caught the perpetrators of a subway bombing that killed 12 people and wounded scores here Monday, saying that three suspects had quickly confessed to the crime.

“At 5 this morning, the crime

was solved,” Lukashenko said in televised remarks. “The police and security services needed one day to conduct a brilliant operation and detain the perpetrators without any noise, shots or fuss.”

He said one suspect was a lathe operator and another was an electrician, without explaining why they would want to bomb a crowded subway platform at rush hour.

Lukashenko said the suspects had also confessed to bombings carried out in 2005 and 2008, cases that have never been solved.

Monday’s bombing occurred during the evening rush hour in a subway station in the center of Minsk, the Belarus capital, close to presidential and other government offices. More than 150 people were injured, many seriously.

COCC Continued from A1 “We’re still proud that it’s the lowest in the state, that we’re able to provide the best bang for the buck for our local students,” Middleton said. “But we held it flat for three years and in the current conditions we can’t deliver quality at the same price.”

According to Chief Financial Officer Kevin Kimball, COCC’s combined tuition and fees for indistrict students will remain the lowest among Oregon’s community colleges, at $3,618 annually for a student taking a full load of courses.

In contrast, the 2011-12 statewide average for tuition and fees is expected to be about $4,076.

Other community colleges will also raise tuition and fees in the 2011-12 school year. Several, like Linn-Benton Community College, raised tuition mid-year by as much as $15 per credit. Tuition and fees made up nearly 50 percent of COCC’s revenues this year. By increasing tuition and the technology fee, the college expects to collect an additional $1.5 million, which will be used for staff and services, as well as to help pay for the new Madras and Prineville centers, opening in the fall.

COCC will also increase a technology fee, first implemented in 2002. The fee, currently $2 per credit up to 10 credits, will increase in the 2011-12 school year to $3 per credit up to 15 credits each term. This is the technology fee’s first increase in 10 years. The fee is used to support growing technology used in most courses.

Taxes Continued from A1 “If I thought people in office had the right thing in mind and they were doing the right thing with the money … I wouldn’t have a problem with it,” Martel said. “But they don’t.”

Taxes are sure to be a major issue as Congress takes up budget legislation for next year and the 2012 presidential campaign gets under way in earnest. On Wednesday, President Barack Obama revived his proposal to raise taxes on the wealthiest Americans to help reduce government borrowing.

In the Associated Press-GfK poll, Democrats were more likely than Republicans to think their tax bills were fair. Liberals and moderates were more likely to think so than conservatives.

Women more likely than men.

Most whites thought their tax bills were fair; most non-whites didn’t.

The young and the old — adults under 30 and seniors 65 and above — were much more likely to say their taxes were fair than those in their prime earning years. Surprisingly, there was little difference in the perception of fairness across income levels.

But just because people say they pay a fair amount doesn’t mean that they think others do.

Sandra Jennings, a retired teacher in South Bend, Ind., said her federal taxes are fair, but she thinks rich people get off too easily. Rich people, she said in an interview, “get all these loopholes. The middle class does not have loopholes.”

Mari Lemelson of Edison, N.J., said, “I have a big problem with the millionaires, at least what I understand to be the millionaires’ tax breaks.”

Tax revenue Monday is the filing deadline for federal tax returns — three days later than usual because a local holiday is being observed in the nation’s capital Friday, April 15, the traditional deadline.

Federal tax receipts are projected to hit their lowest level in 60 years when measured as

a share of the overall economy.

Tax receipts dipped during the recession and have stayed low in part because Congress has extended Bush-era tax cuts at every income level, leaving federal rates unchanged for much of the past decade.

Residents in many states, however, have faced higher taxes because — unlike the federal government — states, school districts and municipalities must balance their budgets each year.

Refunds Many people who don’t expect refunds could be in for a pleasant surprise.

Through March 25, about 87 percent of the individual returns processed by the Internal Revenue Service qualified for refunds. That’s about the same rate through the same period as last year.

Ultimately, about 85 percent of individual returns qualified for refunds last year, totaling about $360 billion. The refunds averaged $3,000, about the same amount as so far this year.

Economists say tax refunds typically provide a boost to the economy each spring. This year, however, more people say they plan to save, invest or use their refunds to pay down debts.

Only 27 percent of the people surveyed said they plan to simply spend their tax refund, down from 38 percent in 2009. Fortyfive percent said they would save or invest their refunds.

“A lot of people got caught with too much debt going into this recession and may well take this as an opportunity to reduce their debt level rather than go out and rent that summer house,” said David Wyss, chief economist at Standard & Poor’s in New York. “When they’re scared, they are more likely to save it than if they are happy and feel like the good times will continue forever.”

The poll was conducted March 24-28 by GfK Roper Public Affairs and Corporate Communications. It involved landline and cellphone interviews with 1,001 adults nationwide and had a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 4.2 percentage points.

Budget votes may be a bellwether for fiscal fight ahead

By Philip Rucker and Paul Kane The Washington Post

House Republican leaders maneuvered Wednesday to round up support in the party for two major spending bills. Both are expected to pass the House, but it’s the size and makeup of the coalitions behind the bills that will help shape Washington’s fiscal debate over the next several months.

The first of the two votes is to come today, on whether to affirm the hard-fought budget deal reached last week that averted a government shutdown. The six-month spending bill appears headed for passage with support on both sides of the political aisle.

If that happens, it would indicate a bipartisan bloc of lawmakers who might be willing to compromise again later on acrimonious spending issues.

The second vote will come Friday over the GOP’s 2012 budget blueprint, crafted by Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan, R-Wis., which would lower the nation’s long-term deficit by reining in spending and fundamentally overhauling Medicare and Medicaid.

That roll call will be partisan; no Democrat is expected to vote for the Ryan plan. For the more vulnerable freshmen Republicans, the vote could become a defining marker that Democrats hope to

Deficit Continued from A1 Obama named Vice President Joe Biden to lead the negotiations with Congress, which the administration hopes will produce the outlines of a deal by the end of June, although a detailed agreement might have to await the outcome of the 2012 election. Biden played a similar role in talks that averted a government shutdown at the 11th hour, over issues far less thorny than those on the table now.

Obama’s partisan tone In a 44-minute speech to an audience at George Washington University that included Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin, the author of the Republican plan, Obama was often combative and partisan, saying the Republican approach would hurt the elderly by driving up the cost of medical care, deprive millions of health insurance and starve the nation of investments in its future.

“These are the kind of cuts that tells us we can’t afford the America that I believe in,” he said.

“I believe it paints a vision of our future that’s deeply pessimistic.

“There’s nothing serious about a plan that claims to reduce the deficit by spending a trillion dollars on tax cuts for millionaires and billionaires,” the president continued, as Ryan sat stonefaced. “There’s nothing courageous about asking for sacrifice from those who can least afford it and don’t have any clout on Capitol Hill.”

Yet Obama acknowledged that the rising medical costs and the mounting debt required action.

And he warned Democrats that his administration would have to cut cherished programs and strictly limit the growth of Medicare and Medicaid.

“If we truly believe in a progressive vision of our society,” he said, “we have the obligation to prove that we can afford our commitments.”

Getting to $4 trillion Obama said he would meet his $4 trillion deficit-reduction target by cutting spending across a range of government programs, from farm subsidies to federal pension insurance.

He called for cutting $400 billion more in military spending — twice what his defense secretary, Robert Gates, told Congress was the largest cut he could recommend.

In a sign of the tensions the plan may cause within the administration, officials at the Pentagon said Gates was not told of Obama’s proposal until Tuesday. In a statement, a Pentagon spokesman, Geoff Morrell, said that “further significant defense cuts” would reduce the military’s capability.

“It is important that any reduction in funding be shaped by strategy and policy choices, and not be a budget math exercise,” Morrell said.

use in reelection campaigns next year.

Lawmakers were still digesting the 459-page short-term spending bill Wednesday (details of which appear on Page A2) as GOP leaders labored to win over as many rank-and-file Republicans as possible, to demonstrate unity over the agreement made Friday by House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio.

The deal, which results in $38 billion in spending cuts over the five months remaining in fiscal 2011, has drawn high-profile detractors in the GOP. Today’s vote will be closely watched as an indicator of fissures between Boehner’s leadership team and the party’s tea party adherents, who had pushed aggressively for deeper spending cuts.

Any revolt among the 87 GOP freshmen could be interpreted as a prelude to the coming clash over the debt ceiling, when Congress will have to decide whether to increase the amount of money that the federal government can borrow.

Some in the House see the chamber’s March 15 vote approving a stopgap funding bill as a benchmark for today’s vote. In that roll call, 186 Republicans and 85 Democrats voted for the legislation; 54 Republicans rejected the measure.

Republicans criticized the plan, both for the cuts in military spending and for what they said was an overall lack of detail.

“Republicans, led by Chairman Ryan, have set the bar with a jobs budget that puts us on a path to paying down the debt and preserves Medicare and Medicaid for the future,” Speaker John Boehner said in a statement. “This afternoon, I didn’t hear a plan to match it from the president.”

Boehner repeated a threat to refuse to raise the $14.3 trillion ceiling on the national debt, which the government is likely to breach in early July, unless the administration agrees to rein in spending and deficits. The administration has sought to keep the debt ceiling issue separate from the broader budget debate, and Obama addressed it only indirectly Wednesday.

“If our creditors start worrying that we may be unable to pay back our debts,” Obama said, “that could drive up interest rates for everyone.”

Still, in what some analysts said was a gesture to Republicans, Obama said his plan would contain a trigger to require across-the-board spending cuts if, by 2014, the federal debt was still projected to be rising as a percentage of the total economy.

The trigger would apply not only to spending but also to what the administration calls “tax expenditures” — essentially payments to taxpayers for deductions for charitable donations or home mortgages.

The use of the phrase “tax expenditures” allows the administration to lump tax-related issues into the spending category.

Obama was more direct in his call for allowing the Bush-era tax cuts for higher-income Americans to expire in 2012. The president agreed to extend the cuts in December.

Medicare, Medicaid and the fight to come While Obama’s plan does not detail specific cuts, analysts said it offered enough detail to set off a substantive debate with Republicans. Some said the proposal for capping the annual cost increase in Medicare and Medicaid to just above the economic growth rate was surprisingly conservative.

Others said they were pleased that Obama had called for overhauling Social Security, even if he was vague and said it was not a leading culprit for the deficit.

“It looks like Ryan smoked him out, so to speak,” said Rudolph Penner, a senior fellow at the Urban Institute.

Penner said Obama’s plan hewed closely to the recommendations of his commission on deficit reduction. Obama did not explicitly endorse those recommendations when the commission submitted its report in December — a decision that fueled criticism from Republicans and some Democrats that he was not facing up to the tough choices in the budget debate.

THE BULLETIN • Thursday, April 14, 2011 A5

CIA Continued from A1 In many quarters in Washington, government officials decamp for the private sector as a matter of course. Defense consultancies routinely hire generals retiring from the Pentagon; the city’s lobbying firms are stacked with former members of Congress and administration officials.

But the wave of departures from the CIA has marked an end to a decades-old culture of discretion and restraint in which retired officers, by and large, stayed out of the intelligence business. It has also raised questions about the impact of the losses incurred by the agency. Veteran officers leave with a wealth of institutional knowledge, extensive personal contacts and an understanding of world affairs afforded only to those working at the nation’s preeminent repository of intelligence.

Among the CIA’s losses to the private sector have been top subject matter experts including Stephen Kappes, who served as the agency’s top spy in Moscow and who helped negotiate Libya’s disarmament in 2003; Henry Crumpton, who was one of the CIA’s first officers in Afghanistan after the Sept. 11 attacks; and Cofer Black, the director of the agency’s counterterrorism center on Sept. 11.

The exodus into the private sector has been driven by an explosion in intelligence contracting. As part of its Top Secret America investigation, The Washington Post estimated that out of 854,000 people with top-secret clearances, 265,000 are contractors. Thirty percent of the workforce in the intelligence agencies is made up of contractors.

Those contractors do everything from assessing security risks to analyzing intelligence to providing “risk mitigation” services in foreign countries.

“Since 9/11, the demographics of the agency have been out of whack. A number of people left the agency earlier than you would think, and you had a large influx of younger people,” said Robert Grenier, a 27-year agency veteran who is now chairman of ERG Partners, a boutique investment bank specializing in the intelligence industry. “The average experience of an officer now is much lower than it has been traditionally, and that has its effects on the agency.”

For private firms seeking to tap into the lucrative industry of intelligence contracting, the value of having agency officers on the payroll is hard to overstate.

And although the agency pays its top managers large sums — the most senior officers make nearly $180,000 annually — private firms are generally able to pay more.

This report is based on interviews with more than a dozen current and former CIA of-

Stabbing Continued from A1 In California, investigators identified 52-year-old Craig Petersen as their suspect and broadcast information about Petersen and his vehicle to law enforcement agencies in the surrounding area.

Shortly before 1 p.m., deputies located the suspect’s pickup truck parked at a rest stop about 50 miles south of Borrego Springs. Petersen, in the bed of the truck, grabbed an object that appeared to be a firearm as a sergeant approached, and was shot and killed by the sergeant.

Jodie Bischof, who along with her husband, Bruce, is a longtime friend of the Mendenhalls, said Petersen has done handyman work at the Mendenhall home in Borrego Springs for several years. Wednesday morning, Petersen arrived at the home and asked to see George

From 1990 through 1996, Congress had slashed the intelligence community’s budget every year, and from 1996 through 2000, it effectively left the budget flat.

“Honestly, it’s painful to see, and it’s not in the national interest. ... The agency would be well served to implement stronger incentives to encourage people to stay.”

— A former CIA official ficials. The Post compiled its list of more than 90 upper-level managers by identifying agency personnel who left for the private sector after serving as directors, deputy directors or chiefs of the CIA’s various divisions, as well as other members of the leadership of the Directorate of Operations, now known as the National Clandestine Service.

CIA spokesman George Little said that “any suggestion that there isn’t world-class, senior expertise at the CIA is flat wrong.”

“Retirement is a fact of professional life,” Little said, “and the CIA has created strong mechanisms to assist our officers as they explore opportunities after retirement and to retain their knowledge before they go.”

The bulk of the agency’s losses to the private sector came roughly from 2002 through 2007, as business with intelligence contractors spiked. In fiscal 2010, a senior U.S. official said, attrition rates at the CIA were at an all-time low.

Some of the officials quoted for this report spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivities involved in discussing the agency’s inner workings.

Few of them cited problems at the agency as their reason for leaving. Rather, they said, the choice was often financially driven.

Intelligence demand Years of intelligence reforms found the CIA unprepared for the events that followed the Sept.

11 attacks. From 1990 through 1996, Congress had slashed the intelligence community’s budget every year, and from 1996 through 2000, it effectively left the budget flat.

Mendenhall, Bischof said. Kate Mendenhall sent Petersen to the garage where her husband was, Bischof said, then went to the garage herself about 10 minutes later to find George Mendenhall wounded.

George Mendenhall was still conscious when deputies and paramedics arrived, Bischof said, and was able to identify Petersen as the man who had stabbed him.

Neighbor George Nase said it’s difficult for him to imagine George Mendenhall getting into an altercation with anyone.

He said the Mendenhalls were friendly, well-respected people and good neighbors, whom he would often see out walking their dog in the neighborhood.

“They’re a very fine family, and he’s a very mild person.”

Nase said. “This is really a shocker, a real, real shocker.”

Suddenly, with a demand for better intelligence, the agency needed more bodies. It needed people to deploy to Afghanistan.

It needed top-level linguists. It needed interrogators. Insiders and outsiders quickly concluded that the CIA needed contractors.

Richard “Hollis” Helms, a longtime overseas officer and former head of the agency’s European division, founded Abraxas Corp. in the days after the attacks. Helms identified the areas in which the agency needed the most help and began aggressively recruiting current and former intelligence professionals.

Those professionals included mid-level analysts from the Directorate of Intelligence. But they also included top brass such as Rod Smith, a former chief of the agency’s Special Activities Division, and Fred Turco, one of the original architects of the CIA’s counterterrorism center and the former chief of external operations. Meredith Woodruff, one of the agency’s most senior female operatives, signed on to Abraxas in 2006.

“Hollis is brilliant; he realized there was a huge market out there to exploit. He printed money for a while — hired tons of CIA staffers and doubled their salary. He was the first agency guy to figure it all out,” said one former chief of station, the term for the top CIA officer at a U.S. Embassy. “You would see people leave the CIA on a Friday and come back on Monday in the same job but working for Abraxas.”

Barry McManus, an agency veteran, was among those who saw the promise of Abraxas.

McManus had worked for the CIA his entire career, with the exception of a few years on the D.C. police force. He started out as a bodyguard for CIA Director William Casey, then climbed through the ranks, eventually doing work in more than 130 countries. By 1993, he had become the CIA’s chief operations polygraph examiner and interrogator, responsible for interviewing high-level terrorism suspects and others in the process of interrogation.

But when he turned 50 in 2003 and found himself eligible for retirement, McManus said, he realized he wanted to do something else.

Now, as vice president of training and education at Abraxas, he spends much of his time training others in the law enforcement and intelligence world. Among his contracts is one with the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center, which hired him to lead a fourday class that covers an introduction to terrorism.

According to government contracting documents, in a separate four-day period in 2006, he made nearly $40,000 for leading a seminar for immigration officers in “detecting deception and eliciting responses.” A year later, he secured a $238,000 contract to perform guest lectures. Pretty soon, more contracts began rolling in.

McManus said he is well-compensated for his work at Abraxas.

One of his first big purchases in post-agency life: a black Maserati GranTurismo, which retails for $160,000.

Mendenhall on Friday. He had just come off the golf course and visited with Beezley for a short time after confirming his plans to continue his sponsorship for this summer’s music festival.

“They’re wonderful people, very active, played a lot of golf; I know down in Borrego Springs they did a lot of hiking, members of the health club here in Sunriver, Kate plays tennis, very active,” she said. “Just a wonderful family.”

Before moving to Sunriver, the Mendenhalls spent several years living in Hong Kong, Beezley said, running the family-owned produce import and export company. The couple’s children, Tina and Scott, continue to run the company today, she said.

Bischof said not knowing what

might have led up to the stabbing makes George Mendenhall’s death particularly hard for family and friends.

“I don’t know that we’ll ever know the motive, because the guy is dead now,” she said. “It’s just crazy. George is the nicest guy in the world.”

Slowing the brain drain At the agency, Director Leon Panetta has helped slow the hemorrhaging of talent. But this year he has seen his top three leaders leave the agency. Collectively, they represented more than 75 years of institutional knowledge and operations talent.

One former official said the loss of so many insiders has taken a toll on those connected to the agency.

“Honestly, it’s painful to see, and it’s not in the national interest to see so many men and women at the peak of their experience walk out of the agency at the age of 52 or 53,” the former official said.

“The agency would be well served to implement stronger incentives to encourage people to stay.”

Bob Wallace, a 32-year agency veteran who now runs Artemus Consulting Group in McLean, Va., suggested the departures from the agency reflect more than the draw of a big salary outside government. Rather, he said, some veterans who have risen to the management level are leaving for a much more mundane reason: bureaucracy.

“People tire of meetings,” Wallace said. “Eventually, they decide they want to jump to the private sector so they can be back on the street again — doing what they love.”

Culver-based Earth2o will begin shipping bottled water on Friday to Japan, where radiation leaking from a tsunamidamaged nuclear power plant has caused shortages, the company said Wednesday.

Earth2o expects to send 40,000 cases of bottled water a month to Japan, Steve Emery, president and CEO, said in a conference call with the head of the U.S. Small Business Administration. He expects the shipments to increase business about 15 percent and employment by about five workers.

“We will be adding a full-time second shift for Japan,” he said.

Radiation leaks from the damaged nuclear power plant prompted warnings about radioactive iodine in drinking water in the weeks after the March 11 disaster, according to The Associated Press. The warnings led to a run on bottled water, which was still in short supply last week, the news agency reported.

Emery credits Earth2o’s recent certification to the highest level of food-safety standards as one of the reasons it’s allowed to distribute in Japan. In March 2010 it became one of 49 plants worldwide to earn Level 3 Safe Quality Food certification from NSF International.

The company also continues

to reduce its environmental impact, he said.

Earth2o plans to start its own plastics company in Culver to produce nearly all its bottles out of 100-percent recycled plastic.

Making the bottles in Culver will eliminate about 10 semitruck shipments a week from Olympia, Wash., Emery said, reducing pollution. The company expects to add about five employees to make bottles, he said.

Previously, Earth2o eliminated cardboard in its packaging and replaced older mercury-vapor lights with T5 fluorescents, reducing energy costs about 60 percent.

Angels fear to tread Some states looking to tax credits to encourage angel investors

MINNEAPOLIS — hey’re risk-takers, putting thousands of their own dollars into unproven ideas for the thrill of turning startups into successful businesses.

Called angel investors, these wealthy individuals are the financial saviors who step in after entrepreneurs have raised all the cash they can from friends and family.

T

The problem is, there aren’t enough of them.

Wealthy individuals who finance startups around the country are cutting back because the deals have gotten less attractive. Several investors said they can make the same or more money without taking nearly so much risk.

The number of active U.S. angel investors declined 11 percent to 125,100 people in the first half of 2010, compared with a year earlier, according to the Uni-

versity of New Hampshire’s Center for Venture Research. Those who remain are becoming more cautious, with the lowest percentage of angel investors funding startups at the idea or concept stage in at least 15 years.

“If we don’t have the acorns, we’re not going to have the trees,” said Jeffrey Sohl, director for the University of New Hampshire’s Center for Venture Research.

WASHINGTON — The Federal Reserve said Wednesday that the economy expanded at a “moderate” pace across much of the country in February and March, led by manufacturing, with labor markets showing improvements in most regions.

“While many districts described the improvements as only moderate, most districts stated that gains were widespread across sectors,” the Fed said in its Beige Book report in Washington. While higher commodity costs compelled sellers to try to raise prices, pressures to increase wages were “weak or subdued.”

The report may reinforce views this month from Chairman Ben Bernanke’s top two lieutenants, Janet Yellen and William Dudley, that the economy is recovering without enough strength to warrant withdrawing record monetary stimulus. The Fed, while keeping the benchmark interest rate close to zero since 2008, is aiming to boost growth by completing $600 billion of Treasury purchases through June.

A voluminous report on the financial crisis by the U.S. Senate — citing internal documents and private communications of bank executives, regulators, credit ratings agencies and investors — describes business practices that were rife with conflicts during the mortgage mania and reckless activities that were ignored inside the banks and among their federal regulators.

The 650-page report, “Wall Street and the Financial Crisis: Anatomy of a Financial Collapse,” was released Wednesday by the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, whose co-chairmen are Carl Levin, D-Mich., and Tom Coburn, R-Okla. The result of two years’ work, the report focuses on an array of institutions with central roles in the mortgage crisis: Washington Mutual, an aggressive mortgage lender that collapsed in 2008; the Office of Thrift Su-

pervision, a regulator; the credit ratings agencies Standard & Poor’s and Moody’s Investors Service; and the investment banks Goldman Sachs and Deutsche Bank.

“The report pulls back the curtain on shoddy, risky, deceptive practices on the part of a lot of major financial institutions,” Levin said in an interview. “The overwhelming evidence is that those institutions deceived their clients and deceived the public, and they were aided and abetted by def-

erential regulators and credit ratings agencies who had conflicts of interest.”

The bipartisan report includes 19 recommendations for changes to regulatory and industry practices. These include creating strong conflict-of-interest policies at the nation’s banks and requiring that banks hold higher reserves against risky mortgages. The report also asks federal regulators to examine its findings for violations of laws.

Even as JPMorgan Chase reported a 67 percent increase in first-quarter earnings on Wednesday, the problems in its troubled home lending unit kept piling up.

Bad mortgages and home equity loans cost the bank $1 billion in the first quarter, bringing total residential real estate losses since the financial crisis began to more than $20 billion.

To make matters worse, bank officials said they expected these high loss levels to persist, and acknowledged new mortgage lending had stalled. Mortgage originations fell 29 percent from the fourth quarter, as higher rates deflated the refinancing boom of 2010.

Still, strong results from JPMorgan’s investment bank as well as the release of $2 billion that had been set aside earlier to cover credit card losses offset the mortgage mess and contributed to a record $5.6 billion quarterly profit.

As the first of the major banks to report their first quarter results, JPMorgan is closely watched as a bellwether for both Wall Street and the broader banking industry. Analysts suggested there was an increasing divergence in performance between Wall Street activities like trading and investment banking and more traditional retail lending. Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Citigroup and other big financial institutions face a similar challenge as they report earnings this month.

“There just is not enough economic strength to fuel loan growth,” David Trone, a banking analyst at JMP Securities, said. “That traditional part of banking is just very stagnant.”

Revenue fell 8 percent to $25.8 billion, underscoring the challenge banks face as they try to expand their underlying businesses amid a still-sluggish economy and new government rules that restrict lucrative sources of income like overdraft fees.

Hedge fund manager charged in insider case

Morgan Continued from B1 Then there is the cleanup bill for the foreclosure crisis. On Wednesday afternoon, JPMorgan’s mortgage unit, Chase Home Lending, and 13 other servicers took a major step in putting their troubles behind them when they struck a deal with federal regulators to make sweeping changes to their loan servicing operations.

Chase Home Lending plans to add 2,000 to 3,000 employees, create a separate unit to handle troubled mortgages and strengthen its internal controls. These moves forced the bank to take a one-time $1.1 billion charge in the first quarter to reflect the higher operating costs resulting from the new mortgage practices.

The company also recently announced several prominent management changes at Chase Home Lending.

“We are adding a lot of intensive manpower and talent to fix the problems of the past,” Jamie Dimon, JPMorgan’s chairman and chief executive, said on a conference call with reporters.

The moves are aimed at addressing the problems flagged by regulators after a public uproar over foreclosure practices last fall. JPMorgan, Bank of America, GMAC, Wells Fargo and other big lenders were forced to review tens of thousands of mortgage files after revelations of paperwork mistakes and other errors.

In some cases, those institutions were also forced to temporarily halt foreclosures across the country.

The settlement with federal regulators still leaves open the possibility of fines and other legal actions. But it does not end separate settlement talks with state attorneys general, who have been pressing the banks to expand their mortgage modification programs and to pay at least $20 billion in penalties.

JPMorgan Chase reported a 67 percent increase in first-quarter earnings on Wednesday, but bad mortgages and home equity loans also cost the bank $1 billion in the first quarter. dress a flurry of lawsuits from private investors seeking to recover losses on troubled loans and securities the bank sold.

Although there has been little progress in the negotiations with either the attorneys general or investors, the bank has been setting aside money for any eventual deals. JPMorgan put aside an additional $650 million in the first quarter to cover these potential legal claims and other foreclosure-related costs, after increasing its litigation reserves by more than $6.7 billion in 2010.

The bank also added $420 million a separate reserve to cover

expected losses stemming from the repurchase of faulty loans that it had sold to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the government-controlled housing finance companies. Previously, it had set aside more than $5.6 billion for these claims.

“I think a good global settlement will be good for everybody,” Dimon said. “Keeping this mess going on is not good for anybody.”

The number of mortgage troubles overshadowed an otherwise solid quarter for most of the bank’s other businesses. JPMorgan’s quarterly profit of $5.6 bil-

China’s economic policy will be a main topic at G-20 meeting

By Binyamin Appelbaum New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — The United States and its allies, frustrated in their efforts to pressure China directly to change its economic policies, are seeking to enlist other developing nations in an international campaign that China may find more palatable.

At a meeting of finance ministers from the Group of 20 nations Friday, the United States hopes to advance a set of proposed standards for judging the risks that individual nations pose to the global economy. Those standards could be used by the end of the year to put a spotlight on China for suppressing its currency to keep its exports cheap.

Even if the exercise succeeds, the benefits are unlikely to be tangible or clear. The U.S. and China have wrangled for years over the relative value of their currencies.

The Chinese have made modest concessions in recent years, but mostly because of internal concerns about inflation and economic dependence on exports.

A senior Treasury official said that it was important for countries to establish shared standards, and in particular to highlight that large deficits and large surpluses were two sides of the same issue and merited the same concern.

“This hasn’t been on the table in the past, but that’s where the conversation is moving now and that’s helpful,” said Lael Brainard, the Treasury under secretary for international affairs.

The purpose of the standards is not lost on China, which has resisted the process. In February, the Chinese fought successfully

to exclude one important measure, reserves of foreign currencies, from the list of proposed standards.

China holds more than $2.85 trillion in foreign currency, the world’s largest reserve. It has pursued an aggressive policy of printing renminbi to buy foreign currencies, lifting the value of those currencies and holding down the value of its own.

Earlier this week, a senior Chinese official published an article blasting the standards as a “political tool” intended to make developing nations like China pay for the economic recovery of developed nations like the United States.

Li Yong, vice minister of finance, wrote that developed nations were responsible for overprinting their own currencies, driving up the price of commodities and creating inflationary pressures in developing countries. Li wrote that the real goal of those countries was to increase demand for their own exports.

“The issue of external imbalances is a sensitive topic related to the development rights and growth potential of China and other emerging economies, and is another political tool, after the exchange rate, used by developed nations such as the U.S. to curb China’s economic development,” Li wrote in the article, which was published on the website of the finance ministry.

Still, China has shifted slowly in the direction sought by the international community in recent years. China’s policymakers adopted a five-year plan in October that calls for domestic consump-

lion, or $1.28 a share, exceeded analysts’ estimates and was a sharp increase over the $3.3 billion, or 74 cents a share, that the company earned a year earlier.

Indeed, JPMorgan’s investment bank posted a $2.4 billion profit, down 4 percent from a year ago, when unusually strong trading results helped fuel a record profit.

Investment banking fees were up 23 percent, as JPMorgan benefited from dozens of new deals, including AT&T’s $39 billion planned acquisition of T-Mobile USA. Fixed income trading revenue was up 33 percent from the

prior year, while revenue from its equities group fell 8 percent on lower trading volumes.

The corporate bank, which provides loans to mid-size companies, reported earnings of $546 million, up 3 percent from the period a year earlier. Bank officials pointed to a marked improvement in the number of mid-size businesses seeking credit.

The credit card division reported a $1.3 billion profit, up 3 percent from the period a year earlier. But much of that gain was a result of the bank’s decision to release about $2 billion it had previously set aside to cover losses.

tion to replace exports as the driver of economic growth. The country also has allowed its currency to appreciate 4.4 percent against the dollar since last June.

American officials describe this as an effective increase of 10 percent because the rate of inflation in China is much higher than in the United States.

The United States has embraced an elevated role for the Group of 20 as the primary forum for international economic coordination.

The Group of 7, which previously played that role, is composed of nations with economies driven by consumption, and currencies that float freely in response to demand. The new seats at the table, by contrast, are held mostly by nations like China, India and Brazil that manage their currencies to create a competitive advantage for their exports.

There is broad agreement that the unbalanced relationship between those two sets of countries — debtors on the one hand, exporters on the other — is a major fault line that threatens global stability. There is much less agreement about the proper allocation of the economic pain associated with potential solutions.

The goal of the current process is to break that controversial issue into manageable pieces. France, the current chairman of the group, has spent this year simply trying to create agreement on the rules for analyzing nations that can be completed by the time heads of state meet in Cannes this fall. Those rules would be used to single out nations that posed the greatest risks for further study.

Motorola Solutions settles suits with Chinese company

By David Barboza New York Times News Service

SHANGHAI — Motorola Solutions and the Chinese company Huawei Technologies said Wednesday that they had agreed to settle a pair of lawsuits over intellectual property.

The agreement is expected to clear the way for Motorola Solutions to complete the sale of its networking division to Nokia Siemens Networks. Analysts say that deal has been delayed partly because of the legal disputes.

Separately, in a filing Wednesday with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Motorola Solutions and Nokia Siemens said they expected to close the sale by April 29, pending approval by Chinese regulators.

The companies also said the price Nokia Siemens would pay for Motorola Solutions’ networking unit had been reduced to $975 million from $1.2 billion.

The companies did not explain why the price had been reduced.

Motorola Solutions and Huawei issued a joint statement late

Wednesday in Beijing. Motorola Solutions said it had agreed to drop a lawsuit filed last year in an Illinois court accusing Huawei of conspiring with several Motorola workers to steal trade secrets.

Motorola Solutions split off from Motorola in January.

For its part, Huawei said it had agreed to drop its lawsuit trying to block Motorola Solutions from proceeding with the sale of its networking unit because the deal involved some of Huawei’s technology.

NEW YORK — Federal prosecutors have charged a hedge fund manager with insider trading, accusing him of using secret information about a clinical drug trial to place millions of dollars in trades.

The portfolio manager, Joseph Skowron, a medical doctor who specialized in health care funds, is the latest person to be ensnared in the government’s vast insider trading investigation.

Skowron is also accused of conspiring to hide his role in the trading scheme, which saved his hedge fund, FrontPoint Partners, more than $30 million, according to a complaint unsealed Wednesday by federal prosecutors in New York. FrontPoint, which was recently spun off from Morgan Stanley and is not accused of any wrongdoing, has agreed to return about $33 million to the government.

Skowron surrendered to the FBI on Wednesday. His name first surfaced in November, when federal prosecutors accused a French doctor of illegally leaking confidential information about a drug trial to Skowron. He, in turn, gave the source envelopes stuffed with cash, prosecutors said.

The source, Yves Benhamou, pleaded guilty this week to securities fraud and conspiracy to obstruct justice, according to court documents.

Gay parents jump through hoops to ensure family’s financial security

By Tara Siegel Bernard New York Times News Service

Faced with the prospect of caring for her 89-year-old mother, Marina Sturm, of Tucson, Ariz., a 55-year-old clarinetist, had to overhaul her retirement finances after a long period of neglect.

Repairing a neglected nest egg

By Carmen Wong Ulrich New York Times News Service

From Mozart, who begged patrons to help settle his debts, to the rapper MC Hammer, who declared bankruptcy, musicians have a long history of lacking money skills. So far, Marina Sturm, a 55-year-old clarinetist, has managed to avoid Mozart’s fate. “I don’t like owing people,” she said. And while she’s far from the problems Hammer faced, she has fallen into other money traps like indifference and a lack of confidence.

“I’m naive” about money, she said. Combine that with the passage of time and this single, tenured professor at the University of Las Vegas feels as if she has wasted valuable years. “In my 20s, I didn’t think about it. Thirties, maybe. In your 40s you’re more likely to, then 50s you go ‘Whoops!’”

At least she’s on notice. In a recent Harris Interactive Poll, 25 percent of baby boomers said that they had no retirement savings at all and 26 percent said they had no cash savings.

Sturm is in much better shape, though far from where she should be to meet her retirement goals. After talking with Kimberly Overman, a certified financial planner who is president of the Financial Well, an advisory firm in Tampa, Fla., Sturm discovered that she actually had close to $180,000 saved and invested, much more than the $80,000 she thought she had before looking at her statements.

Tough economy But to save the amount Sturm actually needs to retire at age 67, there’s additional pressure.

She earns her living in two professions taking a big hit in this economy — teaching and the arts. Overman, 52 and also single, took to Sturm and her needs immediately. “Most of the issues that are going on in our world are going on in her life.”

Overman said that when making a financial plan, assumptions on future income needed to be flexible to take account of the realities of the times. For Sturm, who even with tenure has already been placed on paid furlough and may be forced to take a 5 percent salary cut, “we’re in a position right now that we have to think that that assumption doesn’t really work,” Overman said.

And though Sturm does not have children, she is caring for an aging parent. To be able to take in her 89-year-old mother and have other family nearby to help, Sturm recently bought a bright, adobe-style home in Tucson, with a view of the mountains. After not being a property owner for decades, Sturm now has a mortgage and — though her mother is helping with expenses — the strain of a new set of costs is wearing on her budget and her mind. “If something happens with Mom, how much of it will have to be out of our pockets, I don’t know.”

With that in mind, Overman’s advice for Sturm started with getting long-term care insurance for herself. “In my opinion it’s essential. You can break a hip and

long-term care will take care of you when medical coverage does not — same with stroke.”

Overman said all older people should consider such coverage, even married couples with children. “I have had women tell me, ‘My kids will take care of me.’

Only to have them call me a year and a half later saying that their kids are losing their jobs because they’re taking care of me!”

But long-term care insurance can be expensive. Can Sturm, who makes less than $70,000 a year, manage that? And does it make sense?

“It is expensive but not having it is also expensive,” Overman said. She estimated such coverage for Sturm would cost about $1,900 a year. “I bet you she’s paying that much in car insurance.”

The youngest of three children from a musical family, Sturm has enjoyed her “nomadic” existence, but it has left her finances scattered through four separate retirement accounts. Overman’s advice: consolidate. “She does need to consolidate into a single IRA so she can diversify without having to keep track of 14 different statements which she doesn’t read anyway.”

Investment strategy Overman, who is also president of the Financial Planning Association of Florida, works with clients by initially assessing their tolerance for risk. After answering 25 questions, Sturm’s results showed that she was very conservative — more so than 80 percent of investors.

Overman’s strategy to plump up Sturm’s conservative portfolio was to get her to put the maximum contribution into her 403(b) savings plan and put even more each month into a Roth IRA. “If she can bump it up to the 15 percent level and rebalance her portfolio, she has about a 70 percent chance of hitting her retirement goals.” This sunny prognosis is aided by Sturm’s pension, larger than she had thought, but still too small to live on even when combined with Social Security.

As a last and vital move, Sturm needed to reduce her expenses by about 35 percent at retirement, Overman said. “If she doesn’t make these changes, her chances are zero. That’s the problem.”

Sturm’s expenses needed triage. Her cash balances were too low for Overman. After putting a down payment on the home and lending cash to her sister at 2 percent interest, Sturm needed to find places to cut. After a rather painful realization, she accepted Overman’s suggestion that she create and stick to a budget. “For someone who is creative, dealing with that hunt and peck is painful,” Sturm said. In the past, she never paid attention to grocery prices, but now was learning to pass up costlier items in favor of less expensive ones.

So many changes in such a short time left Sturm reeling but energized. “I don’t know how fast it can happen. But that’s the way I run my life: open the door; make the moves. And not just sit there, stunned.”

BEVERLY HILLS, Mich.

— Most pregnant women avoid long road trips right before their due date. But Amanda and Kay Shelton, a lesbian couple in Beverly Hills, Mich., contemplated traveling more than 600 miles to New Jersey so Amanda could give birth in a state where their baby could have two “legal” mothers.

Michigan, along with several other states, doesn’t allow same-sex couples to perform second-parent adoptions, which allow one partner to adopt the other’s biological or adopted children. They never did make the long trip, which would have allowed Kay to begin adoption proceedings immediately. “It was not terribly practical, so we were kind of in a difficult spot,” said Amanda, 34.

The inability to adopt is one of many legal and financial inequalities the Sheltons face because their state and the federal government do not recognize their union, which they affirmed in a ceremony almost 11 years ago.

Though Kay, 37, is known as “mama” to their children — Maya is 3, Myles, 8 months — the state government still views her as a legal stranger.

So Amanda, who works as a commercial litigator for a law firm in Detroit, must sign a notarized document every six months that gives Kay, who stays home with the children, parental consent. But they have often wondered if there was more they could do to strengthen those legal ties, or to improve their financial situation. So we asked three experts in same-sex issues — a lawyer, a financial planner and an accountant — for advice.

Legal documents The Sheltons say their top priority is their children. If Amanda were unable to care for them, Kay said, “I would not want them missing from me, even for a day.”

Michigan recognizes secondparent adoptions performed elsewhere, but that would require establishing residency in a state where Kay could adopt.

That can take more than a year.

Several documents are available to create as many rights as possible for the couple, according to Mary Kator, chief counsel at the Rainbow Law Center, a firm in Southfield, Mich. Without the documents, Kay, a former auto mechanic, is vulnerable — especially if the couple ever splits up.

Fabrizio Costantini / New York Times News Service

Amanda, right, and Kay Shelton sit with their two children, Maya, 3, and Myles, 8 months, last month in Beverly Hills, Mich.

Instead of relying on the renewable parental authority document, she suggested a “power of attorney for parental authority,” which does not expire. It would allow Kay to act on the children’s behalf, whether it was for a trip to the doctor’s office or a visit with a teacher. “It has never been challenged and as a practical matter, it works,” Kator said.

Finances and taxes Since Kay isn’t earning any money, she cannot use any taxadvantaged savings vehicles for retirement — these require earned income. And Amanda can’t contribute to a spousal IRA on her behalf, since they cannot marry.

Kay isn’t entitled to receive Social Security benefits on Amanda’s earnings record, either. Normally, lower-earning spouses can receive up to half of their spouse’s benefits, if those are higher than their own. Surviving spouses are also entitled to collect their husband or wife’s higher benefits instead of their own. “I know I need to be saving more for her, but I’m not,” said Amanda, who puts about $6,000 a year in her 401(k).

It would be difficult, if not impossible, to divide that up should they split. Married people who divorce can divide retirement plan assets without having to pay taxes or penalties on withdrawals, but the Sheltons wouldn’t have those privileges, said James Tissot, president of Prism Planning in New York.

“The biggest issue as you go forward is the disparity be-

tween the two retirement plans and coming up with something that is equitable,” he told the couple. That agreement should be included in a domestic partner agreement.

If the Sheltons could file their federal returns jointly, they would save several thousand dollars in taxes. Instead, Amanda files her federal tax return as “head of household,” and claims the children and Kay as dependents. Tax rates are higher for people who file as head of house-

hold compared with couples who file jointly, so they end up paying at least $3,000 more, according to Tina Salandra, an accountant and president of Numerical LLC. But they could do something that would help Kay save for retirement: Amanda could hire Kay as a nanny and pay her $3,649 a year, which she could then put into a Roth IRA. (Kay needs to earn less than $3,650 for Amanda to continue to claim her as a dependent, Salandra said.)

Investors

the problem is they aren’t getting rewarded enough for the risk in investing in unproven business ideas.

In the past, angels would often get more favorable deal terms than later investors. But that has changed, and laterstage investors can often make as much money or more.

“They spoiled the party for a lot of people,” angel investor Mark Ravich said. “If you’re entering at a later stage, you’re taking less risk and getting a better deal.”

The financial burden on angel investors has also increased. In the past, a promising startup could move on to funding from venture capital firms after it started with raised money from angel investors. However, venture capital firms are shifting toward later-stage companies, requiring angel investors to provide multiple rounds of funding.

“If this is the new normal, there is not enough money to fund things to get further enough along to a (venture capital firm),” said Paula Skjefte, president and CEO of Waterford Consulting. “I would like to believe this is cyclical, but something is going to have to change to make the whole entrepreneur side of the equation a more friendly environment.”

Continued from B1 Without the money, entrepreneurs like Joel Ackerman are having a tougher time building their businesses and creating jobs. Ackerman, a former UnitedHealth Group executive, needs $2 million to build his startup, River Systems, which is developing software to help senior citizens communicate with their doctors, families and pastors from home.

He’s had more than 20 meetings with angel investors. They say he has a great idea, but they want to wait until there is a product that brings in revenue.

“The traditional role of an angel investor is about dead right now,” Ackerman said, who has nearly used up his retirement savings and taken a second mortgage on his house to fund River Systems. “We have the great potential to create jobs.

Once we get the ball rolling, it will happen.”

Investor concerns Many angel investors say they would invest more money into startups, if they had it. The problem is, their money is tied up in earlier investments, some of which have been in their portfolios for more than a decade.

One way for investors to get their money out of a startup is for it to go public on the stock market. But a weak market has mostly cut off that pathway.

“We’re just waiting for some of our investments that we’ve been in for 10 years to come through,” angel investor Steve Wirth said. “We want to see some liquidity events, so that we can plow proceeds back into the community again and again.”

Investors are also concerned about medical device companies. Uncertainty about approval processes at the Food and Drug Administration makes investors nervous.

Andy LaFrence, who invests in clean tech and life sciences companies, said he’s generally not interested in startups that need more than 18 to 24 months to get products for the market.

It’s too risky, he said.

“In general, I want to make sure there is a pretty short window to sale,” LaFrence said.

their college dorm. The company had nearly leveraged all of its $1 million in assets and without the angel investment, it would have gone out of business, Weber said. Today, W3i employs about 70 people.

Weber has registered as an investor under the state’s angel tax credit program and said he believes Minnesota entrepreneurs who have succeeded should give back. Weber said the credit’s incentive recently encouraged him to double his investment in a local startup.

“I want to see the community get stronger,” 31-year-old Weber said. “I don’t do it because I expect a good return.”

Visiam, which supplies processing technology for municipal solid waste management groups, said the $75,000 it received through the angel tax credit program last year helped the company save three fulltime jobs, hire outside consultants and bring its technology to commercialization.

“It allowed a company to stay in business,” said Scott Hughes, chief operating officer.

Other plans are in the works to make it easier to find accredited angel investors, whom the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission requires to meet requirements such as a net worth of more than $1 million.

The Minnesota Angel Network, a Web portal that will help facilitate discussions between angel investors and entrepreneurs, will launch this summer. Startups will have their business plans critiqued by network’s mentors and must meet certain milestones before entering the portal.

St. Paul, Minn.-based Rain Source Capital, which pools angel investors’ money to create angel funds, said it plans to create 121 U.S. angel funds over the next four years. Each fund would be worth at least $1 million.

That’s not to say it will be any easier for entrepreneurs to raise money, CEO Steve Mercil said.

“What’s changed a lot since the recession is companies have to get to cash flow even quicker. ... They have to show some real growth and critical mass to attract capital,” Mercil said. “Gone are the days ... where you could just generally prove something and people will start throwing money at you.”

Providing incentive State officials are hoping a tax credit will help sweeten the deal. Qualified investors who put at least $10,000 into Minnesota startups will receive a 25 percent tax credit on their investment.

The credit started last year, bringing in more than $28 million in investment in startups.

“Our program is really helping change the environment here,” said Jeff Nelson, angel tax credit program coordinator.

“What our program does, in a sense, is give (investors) a partial exit right away. If you put $1 million in, within months, you’re getting 25 percent of that back.”

At Sartell, Minn.-based software and application distributor W3i, angel investment played a key role in making the business successful and profitable, cofounder Rob Weber said. It was 13 years ago when Weber and his identical twin Ryan started what would become W3i out of

THE BULLETIN • Thursday, April 14, 2011 B5

Continued from B1 The report adds significant new evidence to previously disclosed material showing that a wide swath of the financial industry chose profits over propriety during the mortgage lending spree.

It also casts a harsh light on what the report calls regulatory failures, which helped deepen the crisis.

Singled out for criticism is the Office of Thrift Supervision, which oversaw some of the nation’s most aggressive lenders, including Countrywide Financial, IndyMac and Washington Mutual, whose chief executive was Kerry Killinger. Noting that the agency’s officials viewed the institutions it regulated as “constituents,” the report said that the office relied on bank executives to correct identified problems and was reluctant to interfere with “even unsound lending and securitization practices” at Washington Mutual.

Warnings ignored The report describes how two risk managers at the bank were marginalized by its executives.

One of them told the committee that executives began providing the regulator with outdated loss estimates as the mortgage crisis widened. After the risk manager told regulators that the estimates it had received were dated, Killinger fired him.

From 2004 to 2008, for example, the regulatory office identified more than 500 serious deficiencies at Washington Mutual, yet did not force the bank to improve its lending operations, according to the report. And when the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp., the bank’s backup regulator, moved to downgrade the bank’s safety and soundness rating in September 2008, John Reich, the director of the Office of Thrift Supervision, wrote an angry e-mail to a colleague. Referring to Sheila Bair, the FDIC chairwoman, he wrote: “I cannot believe the continuing audacity of this woman.” Washington Mutual failed two weeks later.

The office was abolished last year, and its operations were folded into the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency.

Reich declined to comment. A lawyer for Killinger did not re-

spond to a request for comment.

The report was produced by the same Senate committee that conducted an 11-hour hearing last April with Goldman executives and employees of its mortgage unit, who testified about their trading and securities underwriting practices.

At the hearing, some lawmakers questioned Goldman’s assertion that it had not bet against the mortgage market as real estate prices collapsed. And on Wednesday, Levin pointed out that his committee had found 3,400 places in Goldman documents where its officials used the phrase “net short,” a reference to negative bets.

“Why would Goldman deny what was so obvious, that they were engaged in a huge short in the year 2007?” Levin asked in a press briefing Wednesday morning. “Because they gained at the expense of their clients and they used abusive practices to do it.”

The report uncovered a new aspect of Goldman’s mortgage activity during 2007. That year, as Goldman tried to build its bet against housing, the report says, it tried to drive up the price of a mortgage index, a practice known as squeezing the shorts.

When the price of the index rose sharply, the cost of betting against the mortgage market fell. Goldman tried to put on the short squeeze, the report noted, so that it could add to its negative bets more cheaply and protect itself against the housing collapse.

A Goldman spokesman said in a statement: “While we disagree with many of the conclusions of the report, we take seriously the issues explored by the subcommittee. We recently issued the results of a comprehensive examination of our business standards and practices and committed to making significant changes that will strengthen relationships with clients, improve transparency and disclosure and enhance standards for the review, approval and suitability of complex instruments.”

Shorting the market The report also sheds new light on the bundling and trading

of mortgages at Deutsche Bank, which had also made negative bets in that market.

Unlike Goldman, Deutsche Bank has not been accused of wrongdoing by government investigators. But the Senate report focuses on a trader named Greg Lippmann, who has since left the bank to join a hedge fund.

Lippmann was vocally negative about housing as early as 2005 and brought his idea of shorting the market to professional investors on Wall Street.

He described risky mortgage securities before the crisis as “pigs,” according to the report.

When he was asked to buy one such mortgage security, he responded that he “would take it and try to dupe someone,” according to the report.

Lippmann persuaded Deutsche to let him build a large short position, reaching $5 billion by 2007, the report says. The bank still lost money on other positive mortgage bets, but Lippmann’s trade helped reduce the company’s overall loss.

The report focused on one Deutsche collateralized debt obligation from 2006, called Gemstone VII, and described how Deutsche and other banks made $5 million to $10 million for every deal like Gemstone they created. In 2006 and 2007, banks created about a trillion dollars of CDO deals — the most complex type of mortgage security and the instruments that sent the lending craze to dizzying heights.

In emails provided to the committee, Lippmann called the bank’s operation a “CDO machine” and characterized such securities as a “Ponzi scheme.” But when the committee interviewed Lippmann, he backtracked, saying his colorful descriptions were used to defend his negative view of the market.

In the Senate interview, Lippmann also said that he thought he was the person who persuaded the American International Group to stop writing insurance on mortgage securities. Lippmann declined to comment on Wednesday.

Wells Fargo to tap frequent travelers to test new credit cards Bloomberg News NEW YORK — Wells Fargo, the U.S. bank with the most branches, is testing microchipembedded credit cards with frequent travelers to address complaints of customers who have trouble using their cards abroad.

The pilot program marks the first effort by a major U.S. bank to deploy Visa Inc. credit cards with so-called EMV-chip technology, which has become a standard in Europe and much of the rest of the world, according to San Francisco-based Wells Fargo.

The lender is preparing to notify 15,000 customers it identified as frequent travelers, including college students and clients of its private bank, that they’ve been invited to participate in the pilot.

The cardholders will receive the EMV cards in the middle of the year.

Continued from B1 “It is part of our core beliefs to change the industry,” Emery said.

Earth2o’s efforts have earned Emery recognition far beyond Culver.

The SBA named him 2010 Oregon Small Business Person of the year, inviting him in May to a White House ceremony, where he had an opportunity to talk to agency officials. He also serves on the Oregon Business Development Commission.

Various government programs have helped Earth2o grow over the years, Emery said, such as the Manufacturing Extension Partnership program, which is administered through a U.S. Commerce Department agency.

A loan through the SBA helped the company expand a warehouse once owned by Sea-

swirl Boats, which shut down operations in Culver in 2007.

Emery and Earth2o serve as an example that small businesses can tap into export markets, Karen Mills, administrator of the U.S. Small Business Administration, said Wednesday, and such efforts will help the nation achieve President Obama’s goal of doubling exports by 2015.

“Across this country there are export opportunities for all small businesses,” she said.

Mills also praised Earth2o’s green practices. Some businesses, she said, believe they will increase costs by adopting more green practices, when in fact, Mills said, they can reduce costs, waste and overhead.

“Steve is a great example of doing all of the above,” she said.

Japanese government lowers economic outlook

By Bettina Wassener New York Times News Service

HONG KONG — In the latest sign of the economic toll wrought by the natural disasters last month in Japan, the government in Tokyo on Wednesday lowered its assessment of the Japanese economy for the first time in six months.

The economy is expected to start to recover from the severe earthquake-induced downturn later this year, the cabinet office said in its monthly economic report for April.

But for now, exports, private consumption, corporate profits and the job market remain under pressure, further weighing on the economy. Japan had

already been struggling with deflation, persistently anemic growth and a seemingly intractable government debt burden well before the devastating earthquake and tsunami that struck on March 11.

“Weakness will continue for a while” because of the catastrophes, Japan’s cabinet office said in a statement, which was noticeably bleaker than the assessment it issued soon after the quake in March.

The assessment echoed that of the Japanese central bank, which said last week that the economy was “under strong downward pressure” and that there was “high uncertainty” about the possible effects of the disaster on the economy.

House sends K-12 bill to governor $5.7 billion funding measure likely will result in further cuts for school districts

By Lauren Dake The Bulletin

SALEM — House lawmakers passed the $5.7 billion K-12 budget Wednesday even as many conceded the amount was not enough and would translate into layoffs and shorter school years for districts throughout the state.

“I ask for your support, even when I say we are not providing our children with the same opportunities we had,” said Peter Buckley, D-Ashland, one of the budget writing co-chairs.

“We are not doing that, and it is to our disgrace that we’re not doing that.”

But lawmakers who voted

IN THE LEGISLATURE in favor of the bill said it would at least be passed early enough to give districts time to plan, avoiding last-minute budget scrambles.

Opponents, however, urged lawmakers to dip more into reserves. At least one lawmaker, Rep. Bob Jenson, R-Pendleton,

spoke and said the $5.7 billion figure is too high.

The House passed the budget by a 32-28 vote.

Kitzhaber likely to sign On Tuesday, the Senate approved the $5.7 billion budget unanimously. Both chambers agreed to use $100 million from the Education Stability Fund.

The budget now heads to the governor, who is expected to sign it.

Among those who would like to rely more heavily on reserve funds is House Democratic Leader Dave Hunt, of Gladstone, who said rainy day funds were created for times like these.

“It is raining,” Hunt said. “And it is time to use reserve funds to fill at least some of these critical holes.”

Hunt called the balance of the state’s rainy day funds — one of which contains roughly $440 million — “unacceptably high.”

A fourth case of meningococcal disease has been identified in Central Oregon, but public health officials say it is unrelated to the three other cases reported in a little more than a month.

Tom Kuhn, community health program manager for Deschutes County Health Services, said the victim, a woman in her 30s, is recovering.

The newest patient is infected with the Y strain of the disease, Kuhn said, while earlier patients in Crook and Deschutes counties contracted the B and C strains.

Vaccines are available for both the Y and C strains, but there is no vaccine for the B strain.

Bend doctor suspended for relations with patient

By Sheila G. Miller The Bulletin

‘A coincidence’ “It seems to be a large number cases in a short period of time in a small geographic area,” Kuhn said. “However, since the most recent case is a Y — of the four cases there have been three different strains — there’s still no cause for alarm that this is an outbreak. It’s still being called a coincidence.”

The health department said those in close contact with the woman recently diagnosed have been advised to take antibiotics to lessen the chances of infection and transmission.

The first case of meningococcal to be reported in Central Oregon this year came on March 9 when Colbey Cloutier, a 16-yearold Crook County High School student, was hospitalized.

Michael Hodnett, 24, of Prineville, was hospitalized with the same strain as Cloutier on March 15. Crook County Health officials said despite the strains being the same there is no greater concern to the public.

An unidentified infant from Deschutes County died from a different strain of the disease on March 20.

Richard Leman, a public health physician with the state public health division, said while meningococcal infections are rare, the recent spike in Central Oregon isn’t out of the ordinary.

Infections are most common between November and March, Leman said.

“It is a fairly unusual infection,” Leman said. “Typically we see 30 to 40 cases a year (statewide), so that works out to be a bit less than one in 100,000 people.”

Kuhn said how the meningococcal bacteria operates is a mystery. The bacteria is present in the nose and throat of more than 10 percent of the population, he said, and is transmitted by saliva or respiratory secretions, but is harmless to most carriers. For reasons not fully understood, the bacteria will at times move into a carrier’s bloodstream, he said, causing high fever, headaches and a stiff neck.

Fewer entering Deschutes’ juvenile justice system County re-evaluating cost-effectiveness of services beyond those required by state law

By Hillary Borrud The Bulletin

The number of kids entering Deschutes County’s juvenile justice system is on the decline, prompting the county to re-evaluate its menu of juvenile services.

From 2009 through 2010, the number of kids under county supervision on an average day decreased by about 17 percent, falling from 471 to 390, according to Community Justice Director Ken Hales.

Recently, Hales appeared before the county commission to present a report on the cost-effectiveness of certain county juvenile services.

Many of the juvenile services the county provides, such as reporting to school administrators and taking charge of kids before

and after court hearings, are mandated by state law, County Administrator Dave Kanner wrote in a staff report. So Hales looked at additional juvenile services the county chooses to provide.

Hales concluded in his report that the county cannot save any more money at the juvenile detention center unless it closes another cell unit.

The county closed one of the facility’s three cells, known as “pods,” last year, laying off five employees. Commission-

ers at that time asked Hales to produce a report on juvenile services.

Hales concluded that closing another unit “may result in insufficient capacity to serve current and near future demand.”

Though the county might have to lay off juvenile probation officers in the future, Hales does not want to do so in the coming budget year.

Instead, he wants to see whether juvenile crime trends change.

Meanwhile, Hales has in-

structed his staff to move kids under supervision for “violations” through the system more quickly. Violations are acts that would not be crimes if the offenders were adults.

“For the most part, we’re talking about minor in possession” violations, Hales said.

County juvenile employees might, for example, monitor these kids’ compliance with conditions of a diversion program, such as community service and drug and alcohol evaluations.

A Bend gynecologist has been reprimanded and placed on one month’s suspension after the Oregon Medical Board found he had violated state law with dishonorable conduct and repeated acts of negligence.

Dr. David Redwine, who operates his own gynecology clinic in Bend, received the stipulated order from the board because he was involved in a sexual relationship with a patient and improperly prescribed drugs to her and members of her family.

In an e-mailed statement, Redwine said he will begin performing surgery again in May when his suspension is up.

“The most important outcome of this action is that I will be able to continue to practice medicine, for which I am grateful to the Board,” he wrote. “I self-reported to the Board, cooperated fully with their very thorough investigation, and I am satisfied with the result.”

Professional boundaries In the April 8 order, the medical board states that Redwine prescribed a variety of medications for the complaining patient, including an oral steroid, patches for nausea, an antibiotic, fenfluramine for weight loss, Valtrex for herpes, and others. According to the order, Redwine also performed a breast exam on the patient in “an informal social setting that was witnessed by a family member and a friend,” developed a sexual relationship with the patient in the mid-2000s and loaned the patient about $935,000 to invest in the real estate market.

Redwine’s order went into effect on April 8. He was fined $5,000 and his medical license is suspended for 30 days.

In the meantime, he must take a class on professional boundaries and appropriate prescribing and have weekly psychotherapy meetings for at least a year.

The board began its investigation in October when it notified Redwine that it had found evidence to support allegations he violated state law and that it planned to take disciplinary action against him.

Malpractice lawsuit Much of the information in the board’s complaint was similar to that included in a malpractice lawsuit filed in August 2009 by a Jane Doe in Clackamas County. That lawsuit alleged negligence and intentional infliction of emotional distress; asked for past and future medical expenses associated with a surgery and economic and noneconomic damages associated with emotional distress. It was transferred to Deschutes County and has not moved forward.

Documents related to that case confirm Jane Doe is Tami Sawyer, a former Bend real estate broker who was indicted in November on federal charges of bank fraud, wire fraud, money laundering, false statement to a financial institution and conspiracy to commit wire fraud.

Deschutes advances permit extensions The Deschutes County Commission moved ahead Wednesday with plans to approve an additional two-year extension for those who currently hold development approvals from the county.

The next step is a public hearing, which is currently unscheduled, where the commissioners will hear public testimony and ultimately vote on the extension. County staff will recommend that all development projects approved prior to the day the ordinance passes get the benefits, said Nick Lelack Deschutes County planning director.

For developers and builders, this proposed extension would make it seven years that they’ve been allowed to sit on their development approvals. The county already allows two years from the date they’re approved to start building and three one-year extensions after that.

Deschutes jail work to begin in May A remodeling project at the Deschutes County jail will come in approximately $200,000 dollars under budget, officials announced Wednesday.

Contractor HSW Builders is expected to start next month on a remodel that will expand the male staff’s locker rooms as well as kitchen storage and the lunchroom, the Sheriff’s Office said. Jail staff are not allowed to leave for meal breaks during their shifts. The remodel will also expand the inmates’ program area and the evidence storage area.

The county is paying for the project with internal loans, which are supposed to be repaid in the future with proceeds from real estate sales.

The project will not result in a tax increase, according to the Sheriff’s Office.

southbound lane on Northeast Division Street between Seward Avenue and Revere Avenue will be closed.

From 12:30 p.m. to 3 p.m., both lanes of Northeast Fourth Street between Addison Avenue to Underwood Avenue will be closed.

On Northeast Olney Avenue between Fifth Street and Sixth Street, the eastbound lane will be closed between 2 p.m. and 4 p.m.

O Portland man, 26, accused of raping woman at airport

ONE-WHEELED EXERCISE

BPA may curb excess wind power

By Sheila V Kumar The Associated Press

DENVER — A man appeared in court Wednesday after his arrest on suspicion of raping a woman who was waiting for a flight at Denver International Airport, and her family has raised questions about whether some employees witnessed the attack but didn’t intervene.

The suspect, Noel Alexander Bertrand, 26, of Portland, was being held in lieu of $50,000 bond. Authorities said he didn’t yet have an attorney.

Authorities said the alleged attack occurred at about 12:30 a.m. Tuesday in the nearly deserted Concourse A. Family members said the woman had missed a connecting flight Monday evening and had to spend the night at the airport.

Family members said the woman told them three people she believed to be airport employees walked by without helping.

Police spokesman Sonny Jackson said two workers pulled a man off a woman shortly before police officers and airport security personnel arrived, and others saw the incident and telephoned for help but didn’t intervene.

Jeld-Wen will pay for lumber yard cleanup KLAMATH FALLS — JeldWen will pay the federal government $700,000 after reaching a settlement on the cleanup of a Klamath Falls lumber site the Oregon window and door manufacturing company owned in the early 1970s.

Man hides inside mall, steals jewelry MEDFORD — Police in Medford are looking for a man who hid inside a store at the Rogue Valley Mall and then stole $10,000 worth of jewelry before smashing two glass doors to escape.

The Mail Tribune reported that police suspect the same man may have broken into a car wash minutes later, based on surveillance video at both businesses.

Medford police responded to the mall break-in at about 11 p.m. Monday and found a jewelry counter at a J.C. Penney Co. store smashed, along with two glass doors. The man was described as white, about 5-feet-10 to 6 feet tall, with short dark hair and a muscular build. He was wearing a white T-shirt with “American Rag” on the front.

Lake of the Woods Resort to get $3.5M face-lift

By Lee Juillerat Herald and News

LAKE OF THE WOODS — Modern, but still rustic.

While owners of the Lake of the Woods Resort are investing more than $3.5 million to upgrade the lodge and resort, owners John Doherty and George Gregory emphasize they’re taking steps to ensure the historic lodge retains its classic, rustic look.

“We’re trying to make it a glo-

rious place and keep that historic flavor,” Gregory said.

“It will look like it was built in 1922, but it will have all the amenities,” Doherty said.

Crews are hustling to get the resort, including the lodge, its restaurant and bar, along with the marina, cabins and RV park, ready to reopen May 1 after being closed for the month of April.

Resort visitors will notice major changes at the lodge, including a new bar, new restrooms,

new windows and new kitchen.

Because of the limited construction season, other improvements will be seen in coming years. In 2012, the restaurant capacity will be doubled with a 3,000-squarefoot addition. By 2013, the lodge’s second floor, reached by a new grand stairway and a new elevator, will include a 625-square-foot bar, conference room and large windows that provide lake views.

Also planned is a 34-foot gazebo at the water’s edge.

THE DALLES — A black bear stranded on The Dalles Dam across the Columbia River was shot after wildlife officials decided it could not be rescued.

Army Corps of Engineers workers at the dam called the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife after spotting the bear Monday.

But wildlife officials decided it was too risky for a person to try to reach the bear. The biologists also thought if they tranquilized the bear, it might tumble 75 feet down the downstream wall.

Wildlife spokesman Rick Hargrave said an Oregon State Police trooper shot the bear and it fell into the water on the upstream side of the spillway. Hargrave says after a while they lost sight of the bear in the water.

Army Corps officials think the bear may have fallen in the river while fishing and been carried to the dam.

spent five months cleaning up the Circle DE Lumber site, removing a tank used to treat lumber and 500 tons of contaminated soil.

Jeld-Wen and federal officials negotiated for about three years on the site cleanup before the government filed a lawsuit in April 2010. But an EPA attorney said it was unlikely the case would have gone to court.

Jeld-Wen said many companies had used the site for lumber operations for about 75 years, but Jeld-Wen owned it just briefly, from 1971 to 1973.

SEATTLE — The Bonneville Power Administration wants to shut down Northwest wind farms this spring when hydroelectric dams are generating plenty of electricity as a huge mountain snowpack melts.

The Portland-based BPA may have to limit production from wind farms to free space in the regional power grid, The Seattle Times reported Wednesday.

“We’re looking at doing everything we can to avoid the shutdowns, but you have to be able to do something when your back is against the wall,” said Doug Johnson, a BPA spokesman. Before shutting down wind farms, BPA would reduce coal, natural gas and nuclear power plant production as low as possible, he said.

The wind-power producers are fighting the proposal that could cost them millions in lost revenue.

“There has been a strong united (wind industry) voice saying ‘This is not reasonable,’” says Roby Roberts, a vice president of Horizon Wind Energy, which has built wind farms in Oregon and Washington.

Wind farms have been sprouting in Washington and Oregon thanks to tax credits and requirements that utilities use more renewable energy. The Northwest farms are capable of producing up to 3,500 megawatts of power — more than triple the energy of the Northwest’s sole nuclearpower plant. And that capacity could double by 2015.

A wind power shutdown would be a last resort, the BPA said, but it has to be ready to balance the flow of energy it markets in the Northwest as well as meeting commitments to ratepayers, helping salmon and selling power outside the region.

The industry says if there are shutdowns it should be compensated for lost revenue. Such payments would raise operating costs and could push up rates for the BPA’s major customers — Northwest public utilities, including Seattle City Light, which have endorsed the agency plan.

“Bonneville is doing the best they can to try to make this work for all parties, and we support this effort,” said Steve Kern, of Seattle City Light.

For many wind power producers, a big part of the payback is collecting tax credits. Those credits couldn’t be collected during shutdowns.

They are pressing for alternatives to ship their power to other areas of the U.S. and Canada, and more flexibility to substitute wind power for fossil fuelgenerated electricity outside the region, according to Robert Kahn, who represents many of the region’s major wind-farm operators.

In a March 31 letter to the BPA, Sen. Jeff Merkley and Rep. Earl Blumenauer, both of Oregon, wrote that the agency proposal could result in “significant economic harm” to wind-power projects and threaten future development.

The pressure appears to have slowed down BPA. The final plan was supposed to be released

by April 1 but has now been delayed.

In the years ahead, the BPA will try to develop new options for balancing the system, such as diverting surplus river water inland to help recharge aquifers.

Jackson described those who called as “good witnesses” and said calling authorities is what police advise for anyone witnessing a crime.

He said the two people who intervened were airline employees. He declined to identify the airline.

Airport officials believe airport workers, including employees of outside contractors, “responded appropriately,” spokeswoman Jenny Schiavone said.

One of the woman’s family members said she gave this account: A man introduced himself and struck up a conversation with her in a restaurant.

She left, and the man followed her, sat down beside her and tried to kiss her.

When she objected, the man threw her to the floor and assaulted her.

The family members said the woman was flying from her home in Oregon to a convent in Peoria, Ill., to look into a yearlong service program through the Catholic Church.

She doesn’t plan to join the convent but is looking for a service activity while she waits to get into a dental hygienist school, they said.

AN INDEPENDENT NEWSPAPER

BETSY MCCOOL GORDON BLACK JOHN COSTA RICHARD COE

Chairwoman Publisher Editor-in-chief Editor of Editorials

Do not restrict public disclosure

R

epublican Jim Huffman believes public disclosure of individual campaign contributions hurts democracy. He wrote in The Wall Street Journal this week about his

failed 2010 attempt to defeat Democratic Sen. Ron Wyden. “The disclosure requirement makes the mountain to be climbed by most challengers even steeper,” he said.

His argument for eliminating some disclosure, though, is an argument for a less informed electorate — less confident in the system’s integrity.

When Huffman was running against Wyden, he faced a problematic contest. A law professor at Lewis & Clark law school, Huffman was not a household name before he ran.

Although there are plenty of independent-minded Oregonians, there were and are more registered Democrats than Republicans.

The policy differences between the candidates were pretty much what you might expect, the candidates articulate. In the end, Wyden raised $5.7 million in contributions, Huffman about $2.3 million. Wyden won with 866,507 votes to Huffman’s 566,199.

During the campaign, potential individual donors told Huffman they agreed with him, but they didn’t want to get crosswise with Wyden. Some had a matter pending before a federal agency, were working on legislation or were hoping for a federal grant.

Disclosure makes “threats possible and fear of retribution plausible,” Huffman wrote.

Or it could be that disclosure gives contributors an excuse.

Huffman found the benefits of disclosure scant, essentially only promoting the re-election of incumbents.

The cap of individual contributions at $2,400 provides voters with little information, he wrote. He concluded that reporting should still be mandated for tracking contribution limits — without public disclosure.

Huffman’s experiences trace the issues of the Buckley v. Valeo case.

The U.S. Supreme Court decided it in 1976 in favor of public disclosure. And we can’t argue with his experience.

Contribution disclosure does infringe on privacy. Disclosure can make raising money more difficult.

But it does not invidiously disadvantage challengers. Challengers do win. As Huffman wrote on his election website after he lost, the story of the 2010 election was how challengers won. The Oregon House and Senate were rebalanced to a nearly 50/50 split between Democrats and Republicans. Congress was also reshaped.

It’s vital that voters make informed decisions. Disclosure is one of the least restrictive means of subduing the harms of voter ignorance and money in politics. It’s also hard to make the case that voters do not already know that the mountain to be climbed by challengers is steeper.

Disclosure is an imperfect instrument of democracy. Without it, voters become less participants and more spectators.

Staffing fix not simple

W

hile an audit found Deschutes County’s 911 emergency service district might be spending more than necessary on staffing, changing the situation could be difficult to accomplish. There are no quick solutions to the problem, if in fact one exists.

The district’s overtime costs are high, no doubt about it. Last year it spent $300,000 on overtime, in no small part because 911 dispatchers work four, 12-hour shifts per week. The quick answer, then, might be to hire enough people to eliminate at least that part of the district’s overtime bill.

But Rob Poirier, the district’s new head, says it isn’t as easy as that.

For one thing, the district has had trouble recruiting and keeping people in the dispatcher job. It’s a particularly high-stress occupation, and dispatchers apparently are hard to find and, equally important, keep.

The current long-day work system was put in place years ago, Poirier said, when that sort of schedule was popular. Too, he said, at the time officials believed the federal Fair Labor Standards Act exemption for police and firefighters from overtime requirements when working a four-day 10-hour week applied also to emer-

gency dispatchers, making the current long-day week cheaper than hiring more dispatchers.

Poirier hopes a new, less expensive system can be put in place in a way that works for both the county and for his employees.

Then there’s the question raised in the audit of how much service to member agencies is too much. The 911 office is home to the police records of its member agencies, and the county’s audit found it does more record searches and the like than some other mid-size 911 offices.

Shifting those records and the care of them back to the individual agencies might save the 911 district money, but as both County Administrator Dave Kanner and Poirier point out, doing so merely shifts the expense associated with them to local police agencies. It is, arguably, cheaper in the long run to keep them centralized at 911.

Kanner says the 911 chief has been working on the district’s staffing issues almost from the moment Poirier arrived on the job in mid October.

They know the district has staffing, and therefore spending, problems.

What is less clear is just what can be done to fix them.

increases? Is it the private sector who gets services? I’ll let you draw your own conclusion. I can only conclude that not only is folly involved but that the continuing under-reporting of labor expense is most certainly longterm purposeful deceit.

Dave Kyle Bend

While I understand the need for cutting certain budgets, I believe that with things as financially difficult as they are for some people, me included, the wilderness, especially the national parks, is one of the only affordable options for a vacation — or a place just “to get away.”

I worry that with the National Parks Service already facing a $600 million budget shortfall, even more cuts could be devastating.

Ryan Mickelson Bend

Withdraw HB 3347 Rep. Gene Whisnant introduced HB 3347 into the Legislature without any local public input. He made an executive decision for his constituents, without consulting them first. HB 3347 basically gives Sunriver Resort, Lowe Corporation and Sunriver Environmental LLC the freedom to build a dense subdivision containing 925 homes, and they will not have to follow current state and county land use laws and goals.

Gene stated at the La Pine Town Hall meeting that the roads were too bad this winter to come over the mountains to consult with his constituents first. Yet I remember several weekends when the roads were indeed good. In any case, a south county bill of this magnitude could have waited for better roads. Had he presented HB 3347 to his constituents before introducing it into the Legislature, he would have found overwhelming opposition. And that is exactly why he moved forward with this “stealth” bill.

But since HB 3347 has already been introduced, a legislative committee hearing will be scheduled soon, and many Deschutes County citizens must now travel over the mountains to testify in Salem. It will be their only opportunity to have public input, at much hardship and expense to them.

If he’s serious about representing

True accounting I used to think the folly of government overspending was largely the result of a political culture that rewards spending versus sound financial management.

Now I understand that Oregon is a prime example of how it happens. It is the accepted practice for government to under-report expenses, especially the cost of labor benefits. We have an experienced governor who portrays the state budget shortfall as $3.5 billion but excludes the $12 billion of unfunded public retiree benefits that are owed but have not been expensed or paid.

This means the budget deficit is closer to $16 billion.

I guess it is legal because the state has under-reported and underfunded labor expenses for decades. I know that for private companies, the same practice is not legal. How can we solve our current financial problems or prevent future ones if we do not report the actual cost of labor that represents around 60 percent of the total budget?

Who benefits the most? Is it the politician who keeps getting elected? Is it public employees who keep getting pay

all his constituents instead of just corporate interests, Gene should immediately withdraw HB 3347.

Aliens, not immigrants Joe Stevens’ letter (March 30) about immigrants in Deschutes County doesn’t pass the smell test.

First, the people in the examples he cited are illegal aliens. They are not immigrants. That’s like calling an intruder in your home an uninvited house guest.

Second, the prevalence of $5-perday pick-and-shovel jobs in Mexico is heartbreaking, but it does not justify illegal behavior here. Mr. Stevens should know that everyone who desires to come to the U.S. has no inherent right to do so. We simply do not have the resources to take in all would-be immigrants. That’s why we have immigration laws. We are a sovereign nation and have a legal obligation to pick and choose the number and quality of those we allow in.

Finally, Mr. Stevens’ assertion that almost two-thirds of those detained

by ICE from Deschutes County have had no criminal records is laughable.

All people here illegally by definition are criminals. Criminal behavior has consequences. Deportation is a consequence of illegal entry.

I fully support legal immigration, so I say this to potential immigrants: If you want to come here, knock at the front door and ask permission to enter.

You have absolutely no right to sneak in the back door under cover of darkness and then expect a warm welcome and a place at the table.

Biomass energy helps manage forests, lowers dependence

By John Shelk Bulletin guest columnist

I

n the discussion prompted by the Seattle Times’ story printed April 4 in The Bulletin (“New studies sully reputation of biomass as clean and green …”) I’d ask three questions: How does biomass fit Oregon and the nation’s energy strategy? Does biomass further Oregon’s competitive advantage with respect to renewable energy? And, just as important, can it help Oregon as it struggles to restore its sickly east-side forests?

As a nation, we’ve struggled to find an energy strategy other than to use more of it. To the extent there is a consensus, it’s this: Reduce dependence on foreign sources of energy. Encourage and reward conservation. Decrease carbon dioxide emissions. Accelerate the use of renewables. Acknowledge there are trade-offs with all energy production but, with all forms, produce energy as

cleanly as possible. None is perfect.

Does forest biomass further that strategy? The answer has to be yes. Foremost, woody material is a renewable resource.

It is not a fossil fuel and it is not foreign.

The prevailing view is that because tree growth captures atmospheric carbon, biomass is carbon neutral in the long term.

Is biomass as clean as other renewables? While combusting biomass does generate carbon dioxide and certain particulate emissions, it does so with pollution controls that make it much cleaner than if the biomass is burnt in the woods either through controlled burns or uncontrolled forest fires. It is a net improvement, and as Oregon begins to address the problems with its unhealthy forests, it could be a potent tool.

No energy source is perfect. One challenge with wind and solar is that they don’t produce around the clock and must be “firmed up” with other energy

IN MY VIEW sources. Northwest wind projects have been fortunate to utilize the Columbia River hydro system for firming to date, but that system may be reaching its capacity for firming and the most likely future source will be natural gas. Biomass can produce 24/7, and as such can be part of the solution to the challenges of other renewable energy sources and can help displace the use of fossil fuels.

Oregon has a diversity of renewable energy generation options, and that gives us a competitive advantage. The Oregon Business Plan states that Oregon’s east-side forests badly need thinning to avoid catastrophic fires and ecological disaster. With 100 years of fire suppression and little active management, many federally managed east-side and interior southwest Oregon forests have high levels of fuel buildup in dead and small live

trees, putting them at moderate to severe risk of unusually intense fire. A woody biomass sector focused on restoration of our forests is a tremendous opportunity to promote healthier forests while providing rural Oregon with economic opportunity.

We should use this material for biomass energy to help create and sustain jobs in Oregon’s rural communities, where we need them most. The Oregon Forest Resources Institute estimates that between logging slash and restoration thinning statewide, Oregon can sustainably produce upwards of five million tons of woody biomass each year, which would create an estimated 4,500 new jobs.

Healthy demand for woody biomass also would strengthen the financial incentive for private landowners to maintain their lands as forest, slowing the pace of forestland conversion for development and sustaining private forest contributions to habitat, water

and air quality, recreation and carbon sequestration.

Oregonians should embrace the opportunity to manage our forests in a way that fully integrates conservation and economic objectives and contributes to the desire for renewable energy. The benefits to all Oregonians and to the nation could be profound.

To be sure, there are trade-offs. Using biomass to generate energy is not a silver bullet, nor is any renewable energy resource. However, it can play an important role, along with other sources of renewable energy generation, to accomplish long-term reductions of carbon dioxide, combat climate change, and stimulate new jobs and economic opportunity.

John Shelk is the managing director of Ochoco Lumber Company. Ochoco Lumber began production of a biomass pellet mill in John Day earlier this year.

Two local lawmakers voted against the bill, Rep. Jason Conger, R-Bend, and Rep. Gene Whisnant, R-Sunriver. But Rep. Mike McLane, R-Powell Butte, voted in favor.

Conger voted against the bill in part, he said, because lawmakers could have done more to help districts drive costs down. He pointed to reforming the Public Employee Retirement System. He also said lawmakers should have passed more bills that would give districts flexibility to be more efficient.

“We’ve probably increased mandates and further limited

“It gives us something to work with, but I dare say the word stability is too optimistic.”

— Ivan Hernandez, Crook County School District superintendent flexibility for teachers to teach, and as a result we have probably increased the cost,” Conger said.

Bend-La Pine Superintendent Ron Wilkinson agreed with Conger’s sentiments, saying he was hoping there would be changes to the PERS system. With the $5.7 billion budget, Wilkinson said, his district faces a $15 million budget gap, $5.6 million of which is attributable to PERS rate increases.

us with (the PERS rate increases), and right now it doesn’t appear that will come,” Wilkinson said. “But the session isn’t over, so we’ll keep fighting.”

Wilkinson said it does help to have the budget set early, especially as his district begins the bargaining process with employees.

And as Crook County School District also faces more cuts, and the prospects of closing two elementary schools and cutting as many as 17 positions, Superintendent Ivan Hernandez said the early budget is nice but “stability” isn’t the right word.

“It gives us something to work with, but I dare say the word stability is too optimistic,” he said.

“We’re in unstable times.”

Disease Continued from C1 Because the symptoms are not significantly different than other illnesses, Kuhn said, it’s difficult to pinpoint.

Sidney Harman, 92, innovator and Newsweek owner

By Robert D. Mcfadden New York Times News Service

Sidney Harman, an audio pioneer who built the first highfidelity stereo receiver, dabbled in education and government, and made a late-in-life splash by acquiring an antiquated Newsweek magazine and wedding it with a sassy young website, The Daily Beast, died Tuesday night in Washington.

He was 92.

The cause was complications of acute myeloid leukemia, according to a statement by the family that appeared on The Daily Beast. Family members said they learned of his illness only about a month ago.

For most of his life, Harman was known as the scientistbusinessman who co-founded Harman/Kardon in 1953 and made high-quality audio equipment for homes and businesses, and later navigational and other devices for cars. He made a fortune, estimated by Forbes at $500 million in 2010, and gave millions to education, the performing and fine arts and other philanthropies.

Married to former California lawmaker But Harman, who was married to former Rep. Jane Harman, a nine-term California Democrat who lost a 1998 California gubernatorial primary race largely financed by him, was also a golfing, tennisplaying health enthusiast who leaped out of bed every morning to do calisthenics, a scholar of boundless energy and utopian ideas, and something of a Renaissance man.

He studied physics, engineering and social psychology; was a classical music fan and jazz aficionado; recited Shakespeare by heart; was a civil rights and antiwar activist; created programs to humanize the workplace; was the president of a Quaker college on Long Island; served as President Jimmy Carter’s deputy secretary of commerce; published a memoir at 85; and was still active in business in his 90s.

In August 2010, two days before he turned 92, Harman, who had virtually no media experience, bought Newsweek from the Washington Post Co. for a token $1 and some $47 million in liabilities. The Post had sought a deep-pocketed savior who might preserve Newsweek’s staff and standards.

Founded in 1933 and acquired by the Post Co. in 1961, Newsweek had long trailed Time magazine in circulation and revenue but was known for serious print journalism. But bled by an exodus of staff members, readers and advertisers and under pressures of recession and Internet competition, the magazine had gone into a financial freefall, losing $30 million in 2009, and seemed rudderless and moribund.

After a shaky courtship, Harman and Barry Diller, The

of just feeling miserable, you should contact your physician or healthcare provider.”

tried to get that money, but have thus far been unsuccessful in their quest. The Sawyers refused to answer questions at debtor exams and were eventually held in contempt of court.

Redwine filed another lawsuit against the pair and their companies in June.

Lawrence K. Ho / Los Angeles Times

Sidney Harman, shown in Santa Monica, Calif., in November 2010, a philanthropist, polymath and pioneer in high-fidelity sound for homes and cars who tried to resuscitate Newsweek magazine, died Tuesday. He was 92.

Daily Beast’s owner, agreed to a merger, with Harman as executive chairman and Tina Brown of The Beast — and of The New Yorker and Vanity Fair before that — as its editor.

The two-year-old website was also losing millions. Critics called it a noble but impractical venture. Harman regarded it as the capstone challenge of his diversified career.

His stamp can be seen in the magazine’s pages, where a weekly column called “Connecting the Dots” was added at his suggestion, the name reflecting his view of a weekly news magazine’s role.

Magazine still hurting But its attempt to regain readers and advertisers has been a struggle. Figures released last week by the Publishers Information Bureau showed that the number of advertising pages in Newsweek fell 31 percent compared with the same three months last year.

Diller said Harman’s estate would assume control of his stake in the magazine.

“Three weeks ago, when he told me of his illness, he said he and his family wanted to continue as partners in Newsweek/ Beast in all events,” Diller said.

“We will carry on, though we will greatly miss his passionate enthusiasm and belief in the venture.”

Sidney Harman was born in Montreal on Aug. 4, 1918, and grew up in New York City, where his father worked at a hearing-aid company. The boy had a paper route and sold discarded magazines. In 1939 he graduated from a branch of City College that became Baruch College, earning a degree in physics. He found an engineering job with the David Bogen Co., a New York maker of loudspeakers. After Army service in 1944-45, he returned to the company and by the early 1950s was general manager.

Juveniles Continued from C1 Violation supervision is the only county juvenile program that has not been proven by research to reduce recidivism, according to the report. Neither does it promote victim or community benefits.

Research has shown it is more cost-effective to concentrate supervision efforts on high-risk juvenile offenders, and supervision of low-risk offenders does not improve recidivism rates, Hales said.

THE BULLETIN • THURSDAY, APRIL 14, 2011

NBA Kobe Bryant fined $100K for gay slur LOS ANGELES — The NBA fined Kobe Bryant $100,000 on Wednesday for using a derogatory gay term in frustration over a referee’s call.

NBA Commissioner David Stern issued a swift disciplinary ruling after the Los Angeles Lakers’ five-time NBA champion guard cursed and used the homophobic slur when referee Bennie Adams called a technical foul on him Tuesday night in the third quarter of a victory over the San Antonio Spurs.

“Kobe Bryant’s comment during last night’s game was offensive and inexcusable,” Stern said. “While I’m fully aware that basketball is an emotional game, such a distasteful term should never be tolerated. ... Kobe and everyone associated with the NBA know that insensitive or derogatory comments are not acceptable and have no place in our game or society.”

Stern’s action drew praise from gay-rights organizations that had demanded a fuller apology from Bryant and condemnation of his words by the Lakers. Bryant, the sixthleading scorer in NBA history, issued a statement earlier Wednesday saying his words came strictly out of anger and shouldn’t be taken literally.

Bryant’s words and actions were captured by TNT’s cameras during the network’s national broadcast of the Lakers’ regular-season home finale.

Timbers ready for their home opener

BASEBALL Bonds found guilty of obstruction SAN FRANCISCO — A federal jury convicted Barry Bonds of a single charge of obstruction of justice Wednesday but failed to reach a verdict on the three counts at the heart of allegations that he knowingly used steroids and human growth hormone and lied to a grand jury about it.

Following a 12-day trial and almost four full days of deliberation, the jury of eight women and four men could reach a unanimous verdict on only one of the four counts against Bonds. U.S. District Judge Susan Illston declared a mistrial on the others, a messy end to a case that put the slugger — and baseball itself — under a cloud of suspicion for more than three years.

Bonds sat stone-faced through the verdict, displaying no emotion. His legal team immediately asked that the guilty verdict be thrown out and Illston did not rule on the request. She set May 20 for a hearing in the case.

The case also represented the culmination of the federal investigation into the Bay Area Laboratory Co-Operative steroids ring. Federal prosecutors and the Justice Department will have to decide whether to retry Bonds on the unresolved counts.

Aiming for youth A new sporting clays program in Central Oregon is seeking to get youngsters involved in the sport

By Mark Morical The Bulletin

When discussing sporting clays, Hap Blackmer calls kids “the lifeblood of the sport.”

But in the same breath, he admits that relatively few youngsters have been introduced to the target-shooting pastime.

Blackmer, of Bend, hopes to change that with a new program called Deshoots Youth Sports. The nonprofit organization is designed to give dozens of kids age 18 and younger the chance to try sporting clays this summer at the Central Oregon Sporting Clays and Hunting Preserve, located be-

tween Bend and Redmond.

Sporting clay targets, which simulate birds, are clay discs launched from electric traps at varying speeds and trajectories. The sport uses the same clay targets as trap and skeet shooting.

“It seems like trap and skeet shooting are kind of going down, and sporting clays is kind of growing,” Blackmer says. “It’s more exciting. With kids, you’ve got computers and video games — a lot of action. Sporting clays is a little more action-oriented.

We’re not standing in one spot. It’s a lot more interesting.”

PORTLAND — The Portland Timbers finally get to play in front of their hometown fans as a Major League Soccer team tonight when they host the Chicago Fire.

While they’re obviously excited about the gala opener at their newly refurbished stadium, the expansion Timbers are also anxious to get that first victory.

Three games into the season, a win has elud- Next up ed Portland, • Chicago Fire which is 0-2-1 at Portland with losses at Timbers Colorado and Toronto, and When: Today, a 1-all draw at 8 p.m.

New England.

“At the end TV: ESPN2 of the day, the fans can’t kick the ball into the net for us,” said team captain Jack Jewsbury.

“We know we’ve got to get it done.”

This week the Timbers practiced for the first time at renovated Jeld-Wen Field. At the same time construction workers buzzed about adding finishing touches, like painting upper level bleacher seats.

The stadium, until recently called PGE Park, underwent $31 million in changes and improvements for the Timbers’ leap to MLS this season.

A new grandstand rises along the stadium’s east side, once the outfield when the facility was home for the Triple-A Portland Beavers.

The field is covered with brand new turf, and a new video scoreboard looms over the south end.

“There’s a lot of emotions coming to a head in a great way,” Timbers owner Merritt Paulson said as he surveyed the field.

On one hand, Aldridge is going home to where he was born and attended college. On the other, the Trail Blazers will face a Mavericks team that finished with 57 wins.

“It means the family, my mom, can come to the game,” said Aldridge. who didn’t play in Portland’s 110-86 loss to the Golden State Warriors in the regular-season finale Wednesday.

nitely with the chicken pox

• Ducks top Pilots: Oregon recovered from an early two-run deficit to record a 6-4 victory over Portland on Wednesday afternoon in Portland. With the game knotted at 4-4 after seven innings, the Ducks (16-14) capitalized on a Portland error to take a two-run lead in the top of the eighth that stood up. Paul Esheleman was two for four and plated the game-winning run. Stefan Sabol was two for three with an RBI, run scored and double.

Prep sports • Local equestrian teams ready for final district meet: With an eye on next month’s state competition, high school riders from around the region will take part this weekend in the third meet of the 2011 season for the Central District of Oregon High School Equestrian Teams (OHSET). The meet, the final district competition of the season, is scheduled for Friday through Sunday at the Deschutes County Fair & Expo Center in Redmond. Events are scheduled for all three days in the Hooker Creek Event Center. Competition is expected to get under way at approximately 8:30 a.m. each day. The teams making up the OHSET Central District represent Redmond, Bend, Mountain View, Summit, Madras, Crook County, La Pine, Sisters, Hood River Valley, The Dalles Wahtonka, Pendleton, Dufur and Lakeview high schools. Riders this weekend are competing to qualify for the 2011 state meet, scheduled for May 19-22 at the Deschutes fairgrounds. Events scheduled for Friday include equitation over fences, dressage, hunt seat equitation, saddle seat equitation, in-hand obstacle relay, working pairs and drill.

Basketball • Williams leaving Arizona: Arizona forward Derrick Williams is heading to the NBA after two program-rebuilding seasons in the desert. The Pac-10’s player of the year announced Wednesday that he will sign with an agent and won’t return for his junior season. Williams averaged 19.5 points and 8.3 rebounds while shooting 59 percent as a sophomore this past season, leading the Wildcats to the West Regional final after missing the NCAA tournament the year before. Williams has been projected as a lottery pick because of his athleticism and versatility.

• NBA suspends Villanueva: Charlie Villanueva of the Detroit Pistons has been suspended for five games without pay for initiating an on-court altercation with Cleveland’s Ryan Hollins. NBA vice president Stu Jackson announced the suspension Wednesday. He says Villanueva also tried to “escalate the altercation by entering the Cavaliers’ locker room on two occasions following his ejection.”

• Bynum’s knee injury not serious for Lakers: Andrew Bynum’s latest knee injury probably won’t keep the Los Angeles Lakers’ shot-blocking center out of their playoff opener. The Lakers breathed a collective sigh of relief after Bynum’s MRI on Wednesday showed only a bone bruise. The oft-injured 7-footer hyperextended his troublesome right knee during Los Angeles’ win over San Antonio on Tuesday night. Bynum was hurt during the second quarter against the Spurs when he fell awkwardly to the court after stepping on DeJuan Blair’s foot while getting back on defense. The Lakers have at least one ailment they can’t shake: Backup guard Steve Blake is out indefi-

• NFL meets judge; Goodell expected at mediation: One month and two days after the NFL and its players cut off negotiations on a new collective bargaining agreement and put the 2011 season in peril, the two sides will return to the table for court-ordered mediation today with a key legal ruling on the lockout still pending. NFL executives met with U.S. Magistrate Judge Arthur Boylan on Wednesday for five hours the day before the first talks between the league and the players since the middle of March. Executive vice president Jeff Pash, the NFL’s lead negotiator, was at the federal courthouse along with other officials and outside counsel. Lawyers for the players met with Boylan for about four hours on Tuesday.

Larger contingents are expected when mediation begins in Boylan’s chambers, including commissioner Roger Goodell himself. League spokesman Greg Aiello said Goodell will attend along with some of the owners.

• NFL’s rookie pitch: Divert $300 million from first rounders: The NFL’s proposal to the players for a rookie compensation system would divert about $300 million a year from first-round draft picks’ contracts to veterans and player benefits. According to documents obtained by The Associated Press, the league’s offer would free more than $1.2 billion by 2016 and slow the growth rate of guaranteed payments to first-rounders, which the documents show increased by 233 percent since 2000. All contracts for first-round picks would become fixed at five years.

• Big 12, Fox Sports reach TV agreement: The Big 12 Conference and Fox Sports announced a 13-year cable TV deal Wednesday that officials say will ensure the long-term stability of the league. Financial terms were not disclosed. Sports Business Journal has reported that the contract, which starts with the 2012 football season, will pay the conference $90 million a year. The Big 12 also has a deal with ABC-ESPN running through 2015-16 that would raise the conference’s total TV rights revenue to a reported $130 million annually.

• ABC to televise LSU-Oregon game: LSU’s season-opener against Oregon in the Cowboys Classic on Sept. 3 in Arlington, Texas will be televised nationally by ABC. Kickoff between the Tigers and the Ducks is set for 7 p.m. local time (5 p.m.

Pacific) from Cowboys Stadium. Oregon posted a 12-1 mark a year ago with its only loss coming to Auburn, 22-19, in the BCS National Championship Game.

LSU is coming off an 11-2 overall mark in 2010, capped with a 41-24 win over Texas A&M in the Cotton Bowl.

Soccer • Spain leads FIFA rankings: World Cup winner Spain has stayed on top of the FIFA rankings, while Brazil and Italy moved into the top 10. Spain leads longtime No. 2 the Netherlands, with Brazil improving two places to No. 3. Italy ends a seven-month exile from the top 10, rising two places to ninth. The United States leads CONCACAF teams at No. 22 despite falling for the second straight month. Germany and Argentina are fourth and fifth as each fell one spot.

Cycling • Ventoso wins first stage of Castilla: Spaniard Fran Ventoso won the first stage of the Vuelta de Castilla and Leon in Spain on Wednesday, while Alberto Contador placed 15th in his final Giro d’Italia tuneup. Ventoso won a sprint to finish the 108.3-mile leg in 4 hours, 12 minutes, 57 seconds, ahead of Manuel Belletti of Colnago-CSF Inox and Marco Kump of Geox-TMC. — From wire reports

NHL ROUNDUP

Capitals beat Rangers in playoff opener thanks to overtime goal The Associated Press WASHINGTON — Alexander Semin had gone 14 playoff games without a goal, a troubling trend for a Washington Capitals team that has endured too many postseason disappointments in recent years.

It took almost 80 minutes of hockey in game No. 15 to finally end the drought.

Semin scored 18:24 into overtime Wednesday night to give the Capitals a 2-1 win over the eighth-seeded New York Rangers in Game 1 of their first-round series, a welcome bit of relief to the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference.

“We’re not getting anywhere without Alex Semin scoring,” Washington coach Bruce Boudreau said. “We need him to go and create that other offensive threat.”

Semin scored 28 times in the regular season and has been Washington’s best offensive threat after Alex Ovechkin for several years, but he was blanked in seven-game series losses to Pittsburgh two years ago and Montreal last year. His last playoff goal also came against the Rangers in the seventh game of a first-round series in 2009.

He came close in the first period Wednesday, hitting the crossbar with five minutes to play in the first period, about a half-minute before Jason Arnott also clanged one off the net frame.

Arnott and Semin teamed up for the winning goal, when Arnott intercepted a clearing pass from defenseman Marc Staal and found Semin between the circles for a one-timer past Henrik Lundqvist.

Semin is notoriously averse to speaking to reporters and didn’t have much to say about his big moment, but his teammates knew its significance.

“Last year he was little bit upset he didn’t score a goal,” Ovechkin said.

“And right now it’s very important for him to score a goal, step up and show

Washington Capitals’ Alexander Semin (28) and Alex Ovechkin (8) celebrate Ovechkin’s goal in the third period of Game 1 of a first-round NHL hockey playoff series with the New York Rangers, Wednesday. his leadership.”

Ovechkin tied the game late in regulation during an intense pokeat-the-puck scramble, matching Matt Gilroy’s third-period goal in a game that took a while to get going. Michal Neuvirth made 24 saves to win his NHL playoff debut. Lundqvist stopped 31 shots for the Rangers.

American League roundup

National League roundup

• Blue Jays 8, Mariners 3: SEATTLE — Jose Bautista hit a three-run homer off Seattle reliever Chris Ray, part of Toronto’s six-run eighth inning, and the Blue Jays avoided a three-game sweep by rallying for a win over the Mariners. Much to the delight of the many Blue Jays fans that made the drive down from British Columbia, Bautista unloaded on a 2-1 breaking ball that Ray (1-1) left in the middle of the plate, hitting it into the Toronto bullpen in left field — where reliever Jon Rauch caught the homer as he was warming up.

• Athletics 7, White Sox 4: CHICAGO — Oakland scored three times in the ninth inning, then Coco Crisp hit a go-ahead single in a three-run 10th as the Athletics feasted on Chicago’s shaky bullpen for a startling win. Crisp entered the game in the ninth as a pinch-runner and was in a 3-for-22 slump before singling off Matt Thornton (0-2).

• Tigers 3, Rangers 2: DETROIT — Brandon Inge hit a solo home run in the bottom of the ninth inning and Detroit beat Texas in its last at-bat for the second straight day. With one out, Inge hit the first pitch from Darren Oliver (1-1) over the left-field wall. Jose Valverde (2-0) pitched a scoreless top of the ninth for the Tigers.

• Royals 10, Twins 5: MINNEAPOLIS — Slumping Mike Aviles doubled twice and drove in three runs as Kansas City became the latest team to tag Francisco Liriano, roughing up Minnesota.

Aviles ended his zero-for-18 rut and Alex Gordon added two hits and drove in two runs. The Royals scored six times in the fourth inning to break open the game.

• Yankees 7, Orioles 5: NEW YORK — A.J. Burnett remained undefeated in April with the Yankees by pitching effectively into the seventh inning, Alex Rodriguez hit a three-run homer and New York beat Baltimore. Robinson Cano added a two-run double. Mark Teixeira had two hits and Jorge Posada homered as they ended slumps and helped New York move into a tie atop the AL East with the Orioles.

• Angels 4, Indians 3: ANAHEIM, Calif. — Jeff Mathis hit a bases-loaded sacrifice fly in the 12th inning that scored Vernon Wells and the Los Angeles Angels beat Cleveland. Wells singled sharply into the hole off the glove of shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera with one out in the 12th, only his fifth hit in 49 at-bats this season.

• Phillies 3, Nationals 2: WASHINGTON — At his dominant best until a shaky ninth inning, Roy Halladay held on to throw his first complete game of 2011, leading Philadelphia past Washington.

Through eight shutout innings, Halladay (2-0) allowed only a pair of singles by Adam LaRoche.

• Brewers 6, Pirates 0: PITTSBURGH — Shaun Marcum pitched seven shutout innings, Prince Fielder homered for the third time in four games and Milwaukee won its sixth in seven games, over Pittsburgh. Marcum (2-1) was perfect through four and kept the Pirates off-balance with his changeup, allowing only four singles with four strikeouts and a walk.

• Marlins 5, Braves 1: ATLANTA — Josh Johnson took a no-hit bid into the eighth inning before rookie Freddie Freeman doubled with one out, and Florida beat Atlanta. Johnson (2-0) dominated the Braves for 7 1⁄3 innings, striking out nine and walking three.

• Padres 3, Reds 2: SAN DIEGO — Orlando Hudson hit a bases-loaded, opposite-field single with two outs in the ninth inning and San Diego beat Cincinnati to avoid a three-game sweep.

Hudson hit the first pitch he saw from Nick Masset (0-3) over third baseman Juan Francisco’s head and into left field.

• Rockies 5, Mets 4: NEW YORK — Troy Tulowitzki hit a go-ahead homer through the thick fog and Colorado, off to the best start in club history, beat the New York Mets. Ryan Spilborghs also connected and Esmil Rogers (2-0) won his second straight outing to begin the season as Colorado earned its fourth consecutive victory — all on the road.

• Cubs 9, Astros 5: HOUSTON — Pitcher Carlos Zambrano extended a franchise record with his 22nd career homer and ran his winning streak to 10 games, leading the Chicago Cubs to victory and a series win over Houston.

• Cardinals 15, Diamondbacks 5: PHOENIX — Lance Berkman hit a grand slam and drove in five runs, and St. Louis routed Arizona. Skip Schumaker also homered.

• Giants 4, Dodgers 3: SAN FRANCISCO — Pablo Sandoval hit a tying solo home run in the sixth inning and last-minute fill-in Mike Fontenot connected two batters later, leading San Francisco past the Los Angeles Dodgers.

16th time in 17 seasons and Smart’s future is uncertain under new owners Joe Lacob and Peter Guber.

“This is my home, so I’m here no matter what,” Smart said. “My family already told me I can go anywhere I want but they’re staying. My focus is on the team, moving forward with the idea that I’m directing this team. That’s how I’m going to play it out.”

Dorell Wright had 20 points to cap a breakout season for the veteran forward and David Lee added 13 points for the Warriors.

Even without leading scorer Monta Ellis, who sat out his second consecutive game with a concussion, the Warriors had it easy while winning their third straight against Portland this season.

Golden State even made a little history along the way.

Wright, who signed a threeyear deal with the Warriors last July after five years with Miami, finished the season with 1,344 points, 10 more than the total he had in his previous six seasons combined. In doing so, Wright — the league’s leading three-point shooter going into the night — became the first player in NBA history to accomplish that feat, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.

“It’s been great,” Wright

said. “All the records are pretty sweet, but you know my teammates, if it wasn’t for those guys, I wouldn’t be in the position I’m in now.”

Patty Mills had a careerhigh 23 points and Wesley Matthews added 18 points for Portland.

The Warriors jumped out to a 12-point lead in the first quarter, led by as much as 24 in the second half then held on to snap Portland’s three-game winning streak.

The Blazers lost for just the third time in their past nine games, a stretch that included victories over playoff-bound San Antonio, Oklahoma City, Dallas and the Lakers.

Luke Babbitt had a doubledouble with 11 points and 11 rebounds for Portland, which shot just 33.7 percent from the floor and committed 21 turnovers.

NOTES: The game was a sellout, Golden State’s 13th of the season. ... Curry set a franchise record for free-throw percentage (92.6), breaking Hall of Famer Rick Barry’s mark of 92.4 percent set in 1977-78. ...

Oakland Raiders head coach Hue Jackson and former safety Eddie Anderson sat courtside. ... Ellis dressed for the game and sat on the bench in the first half but did not come out after halftime.

Continued from D1 “It means a lot sentimentalwise. But it’s not like, ‘Oh thank you, we’ve got Dallas.’ It’s going to be a tough task.”

The Blazers secured the No. 6 seed in the Western Conference on Tuesday night with a victory over Memphis. That gave coach Nate McMillan a chance to rest Aldridge and fellow starters Marcus Camby, Nicholas Batum and Gerald Wallace before opening the postseason at Dallas.

Earl Barron, signed as a free agent Tuesday, started at center in Portland’s makeshift lineup that also included reserves Rudy Fernandez and Chris Johnson.

The outcome wasn’t all that surprising for a Portland team with nothing on the line.

“We were able to sit some guys out that have injuries or soreness,” McMillan said.

“Now we can get prepared for who we are going to face this weekend. The important thing tonight was for (the reserves) to go out and play hard and get some time out on the floor.”

With the bench logging most of the minutes, the Blazers fell behind early and couldn’t recover.

Afterward, Aldridge joined his teammates in the locker room to watch the final minutes of the Lakers’ overtime win against Sacramento. A Los Angeles loss would have sent Portland to Southern California to open the playoffs instead of to Dallas.

The Blazers and Mavs split their season series 2-2 this year.

“It’s going to be tough,” Aldridge said. “They’ve been to the finals before, a few years back, but they have a really, really good team. They were one of the hottest teams in the NBA this year so it’s going to be a really tough task to go in there and beat them.”

Reggie Williams scored 28 points and Stephen Curry had 18 points and nine assists for Golden State in what could be first-year coach Keith Smart’s final game.

Smart, who replaced Don Nelson before the season, led Golden State to a 36-46 record.

That was a 10-game turnaround from 2010 but the team still missed the playoffs for the

Rob Kerr / The Bulletin

Summit’s Laney Hayes advances past a hurdle en route to winning the 100-meter hurdles race Wednesday.

Track Continued from D1 Summit’s Sarah Taylor was the fourth Storm jumper to go 5-2, clearing the mark in the junior varsity meet. Hayes, Howard, Taylor and Taylor have the first, second and fourth best high jump marks in Class 5A up to this point in the season.

Hayes was all over the track Wednesday, winning the 100-meter hurdles in addition to taking second in the long jump and triple jump.

Brianna Rosen paced the Mountain View girls, recording wins in

the 100 and 400.

In the boys competition, Travis Neuman, Luke Hinz and Jesse Sanderson finished first, second and third, respectively, in the 800.

Neuman won the event with a time of 1 minute, 59.33 seconds, the fourth-best 5A time so far this season.

Hayden Czmowski and Blake Bosch led the Cougars boys.

Czmowski pulled off a hat trick in the three throwing events, winning the shot put, discus and javelin, while Bosch posted victories in the high jump and triple jump.

Both teams are back on the track Saturday at the Crater Classic in Central Point.

Mountain View sweeps Redmond in doubleheader Bulletin staff report Mountain View limited Redmond to nine hits in two games Wednesday as the Cougars defeated the Panthers 4-1 and 6-3 to improve to 7-1 in Intermountain Hybrid baseball play.

Sam Peters earned the win for Mountain View in the opener, pitching six innings before Alex Robinett closed out the game with a scoreless seventh.

Peters struck out three and scattered three hits against six walks. The Cougars (11-4 overall) scored three runs in the third inning, sparked in part by Peters’ solo home run.

In the second game, Jacob Hollister picked up the victory, throwing 5 2⁄3 innings to lead Mountain View to a 6-3 win.

Ahead 2-1 after five innings, the Cougars broke the game open with a four-run sixth that was fueled by RBI doubles by Matt Miller and Jo Carroll.

Mountain View, which has won 10 of its past 11 games, is at Bend High on Friday.

In other prep events Wednesday: SOFTBALL Redmond . . . . . . . . . . . . . 11 - 12 Crook County . . . . . . . . . . . . 1 - 0 PRINEVILLE — Ashley Pesek went the distance for Redmond and tossed a four-hitter with 10 strikeouts and no walks in the first game of the Intermountain Hybrid doubleheader. The Panthers (6-0 Intermountain Hybrid, 11-1 overall) benefitted from timely hits and a pair of home runs by Brandy Knowles, who swatted a solo shot in the fourth and two-run

Timbers Continued from D1 Paulson, the son of former Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson, bought the Timbers and the Beavers in 2007 and soon thereafter began a campaign to lure an MLS franchise to Portland.

While he won over MLS, he was unable to persuade area leaders to build a new ballpark for the Beavers, the minor league affiliate of the San Diego Padres.

The Beavers were sold last year to Jeff Moorad, an owner of the Padres, and moved to Tucson, Ariz.

Major League Soccer at the outset appears to be a good fit for Portland, which has been home to the Timbers in one incarnation or another since 1975. The Tim-

PREP ROUNDUP knock in the sixth and final inning. In the second game, Redmond’s Courtney McCarthy tallied two doubles and Cheyenne Friend, Baileigh Baker and Justine Callen all added doubles for the Panthers, who posted 11 hits in the five-inning shutout.

Redmond hosts Summit Friday while Crook County travels to meet Bend the same day.

Mountain View . . . . . . . . . . 16 - 4 Summit . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 0 - 8 In the opener at Summit High, Cougar senior Danika Noel knocked a bases-loaded double, bringing home three runs to give the Cougars (2-2 Intermountain Hybrid, 4-5 overall) a 10-0 lead after the first inning.

Mountain View’s Shelbee Wells tossed a two-hitter shutout in the road win. In the second game, Storm pitcher Mariah Defoe kept the Cougar batters off balance, recording 10 strikeouts to help boost Summit (1-1 Intermountain Hybrid, 2-4 overall) to an 8-4 win. Summit held a 4-0 advantage after three innings and added two more runs in the fourth and fifth innings to keep the home team ahead.

Summit is at Redmond on Friday while Mountain View hosts Redmond on Wednesday.

BASEBALL Bend . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 23 Summit . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 12 The Lava Bears scored 12 runs in the top of the seventh inning at Summit High to blow up what until then was a close game. Bend led 11-9 after six

innings before sealing the Intermountain Hybrid contest in its final at-bat. Sophomore Anthony Martorano earned the win for the Bears (3-3 Intermountain Hybrid, 11-3 overall), giving up nine runs over six innings.

Chris Zelmer went three for five with a home run and three runs batted in to lead Bend at the plate. Jonah Koski added three hits and scored five times for the Lava Bears, who recorded 18 hits in the game. Summit (2-4 Intermountain Hybrid, 4-9 overall) kept pace offensively with Bend, posting 13 hits in the defeat. D.J. Wilson went three for four with two doubles, a home run, an RBI and one run scored to lead the Storm. Additionally, Konner Reddick ended the day four for five with two doubles, two RBIs and three runs scored.

Summit struggled in the field all game, though, committing 10 errors, three of which came in the top of the seventh. Bend High hosts Mountain View on Friday and Summit is at Crook County the same day.

BOYS TENNIS North Marion . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 5 Madras . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 3 MADRAS — Ryan Fine and Carlos Garcia both scored wins for Madras in singles play but North Marion won three of the four doubles matches en route to the Special District 2 win.

The White Buffaloes duo of Jesus Vasquez and Michael Giron notched the only Madras doubles win on the day.

bers were born that year as part of the North American Soccer League and they were successful at the start, advancing to the league’s championship game.

Because of the excitement surrounding that team, Portland was dubbed “Soccer City, USA.” The moniker has seen a revival with the arrival of MLS. The Timbers sold out their season tickets earlier this year and now there’s a waiting list. The single game tickets are mostly gone, too.

The Oregon House of Representatives jumped on the bandwagon on Wednesday by declaring today “Timbers Day” in Oregon.

“The excitement and hype around this game is unbelievable,” said goalkeeper Jake Gleeson. “It certainly has surpassed

my expectations.”

Gleeson, a 20-year-old from New Zealand, will have to wait to see whether he will start in goal for the Timbers against the Fire.

He started in Portland’s past two games, a U.S. Open Cup victory and a regular-season game at New England, because veteran Troy Perkins and backup Adin Brown have both been nursing injuries.

Perkins is close to a return, but coach John Spencer said he won’t decide between his two options until game time.

Spencer said it is important that his team keep perspective amid all the hoopla on tonight.

“For me, you step on the field — it’s a beautiful arena to play in,” the coach said. “But ultimately that’s not what matters — it’s how the team performs.”

TRACK AND FIELD Lava Bears beat Crook County in relays Bend won 55-15 at home against Crook County in a coed relays event. The Cowboys Jordan Reeher was a double winner, taking part in a victorious relay in addition to claiming first place in the long jump. Crook County swept the shot put events, with Cody Smith winning the boys’ competition and Cowgirl Marcy Johnson setting a personal best to finish first in the girls event.

BOYS LACROSSE Summit . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .15 Mountain View. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 8 The Storm opened High Desert League play with a victory and are now 4-2 overall. Willy Ross scored a team-high four goals and Quinn Burkett contributed four assists in the win. Dylan Smith added three goals for the Storm, who host Hermiston on Friday.

Bend . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 8 Sisters. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 6 SISTERS — Colton Raichl had a hand in six of his team’s eight goals, scoring three times himself and assisting on three others in the Lava Bears’ nonleague victory over the Outlaws. Tyler Simpson also scored three goals for Bend. Bend hosts Redmond today while Sisters is at Roseburg on Saturday.

Continued from D1 But go to a shooting range and “you don’t see any kids,” laments Jim O’Grady, of Bend.

O’Grady’s 13-year-old son, Bailey, is an avid sporting clays shooter and plans to take part in Deshoots Youth Sports.

“This is a great opportunity to get the kids introduced,” Jim O’Grady says. “They need to be introduced in some way.

In Central Oregon, there’s definitely a need for it.”

Blackmer, 54, is a certified sporting clays instructor who started shooting at a young age with his father’s guidance.

He knows the gear-intensive sport can be expensive, so he wanted to offer a way to make it more affordable for Central Oregon youth.

Blackmer will rely mostly on private donations to run the program, which he plans to conduct over a 12-week period this summer. Specific dates and times for the shooting sessions are yet to be announced.

The program will be offered for a one-time fee of $15 to $20.

Sporting clays is scored by how many targets a shooter hits out of a specified number of attempts (usually 25 or 50).

The typical setup is known as five-stand, which features five stations with a different arrangement of targets at each station. The disc can fly across a shooter’s line of sight, or out and away from the shooter.

Central Oregon Sporting Clays — located on a ranch about halfway between Bend and Redmond, about threequarters of a mile east of U.S. Highway 97 — includes a 13station walk-through course, where shooters walk from station to station.

A long-range goal for Blackmer is to get youngsters involved in the Scholastic Clay Targets Program (SCTP), a national organization for youth shooters in the sports of trap, skeet and sporting clays.

“If they (young shooters) want to take it to the next level, we can get them into that more competition-oriented (direction),” Blackmer says.

“We eventually want to get a core group together and travel around and compete at different venues — sort of a competitive traveling team.”

But the main focus of Deshoots Youth Sports, Blackmer insists, is safety.

“That’s No. 1,” he says.

“That’s the first thing we teach. We tell them that they are responsible for everyone else’s safety.”

Brad Carroll, a 17-year-old junior at Bend’s Summit High School, got started in sporting clays about a year ago and is now involved in the SCTP. He plans to participate in the Deshoots Youth Sports program.

“I think it’s a great opportunity for us,” Carroll says.

“It’s cool we have a place that’s local where we can go shoot, have fun, and get better. (Sporting clays) is fun and it teaches you a bunch of stuff — discipline and working hard and getting better at something.”

Deshoots Youth Sports will welcome beginners as well as those with experience. Blackmer says he typically will start off with easy targets to build confidence in the young shooters.

“We can usually take a kid that has never handled a gun and within an hour have (him or her) break at least a couple

targets,” he says. “Most kids, if they show any interest in it at all, they love it.”

Central Oregon Sporting Clays hosted a fundraiser for Deshoots Youth Sports earlier this month, gaining donations through a raffle and a silent auction. Blackmer is seeking additional donations as well as gear, including shotguns, pouches, safety glasses, ear protection and shotgun shells.

Blackmer hopes to get parents involved, too.

“It’s not super rigid, other than the safety,” he says. “So there’s the opportunity for a lot of outdoor fun.”

FISHING

Gary Lewis / For The Bulletin

Jennifer Lewis boated this 6-pound hatchery winter-run steelhead fishing the Clackamas last week.

Steelhead fishing is worth the woes Rough terrain, weather no deterrent to angling these spectacular fish

“I

have lived,” Rudyard Kipling wrote in 1889.

“The American Continent may now sink under the sea, for I have taken the best that it yields, and the best was neither dollars, love, nor real estate.”

Addressed to the “gentlemen of the Punjab Fishing Club,” the story recounts Kipling’s passage from The Dalles to Portland, thence along the Willamette and 15 miles overland in a horsedrawn carriage.

“All the land was dotted with small townships, and the roads were full of farmers in their town wagons, bunches of tow-haired, boggle-eyed urchins sitting in the hay behind. The men generally looked like loafers, but their women were all well dressed.”

Away from the towns, the road struck into the woods. “It wound in and out among fire-blackened stumps under pine-trees, along the corners of log fences, through hollows, which must be hopeless marsh in the winter, and up absurd gradients.”

This is what people endure for steelhead. For this is what Kipling spoke of. Better than dollars, better than love, better than real estate: steelhead.

It’s a rite of passage in our family. My first — 9 pounds of North Fork Lewis chrome — came when I was 14, after three years of trying and 10 great fish battled and lost.

Merrilee caught hers on our first fishing date, a 6-pounder high in the Sandy River watershed.

Our firstborn, Tiffany, caught her sea-run rainbows on the Snake River on a January day when the riverbanks were crusted with ice.

Our daughter Jennifer was well dressed in a borrowed ski-jacket and her grandpa’s rain pants when we plumbed the depths of the Clackamas — where Kipling and company waded 122 years before, where Kipling hooked his first on an 8-

GARY LEWIS ounce bamboo rod.

“The next cast — ah, the pride of it, the regal splendor of it! The thrill that ran down from fingertip to toe! Then the water boiled.

He broke for the fly and got it.

There remained enough sense in me to give him all he wanted when he jumped not once, but 20 times, before the up-stream flight that ran my line out to the last half-dozen turns, and I saw the nickeled reel-bar glitter under the thinning green coils. My thumb was burned deep when I strove to stopper the line.”

We fished a couple of slots up high, then drifted around a corner into a long run. On the left bank, two anglers stood, shiny in wet green slickers. On river right, the best water was occupied by a jet sled and a pontoon boat.

My friend Rob Crandall, owner of Watertime Outfitters, dropped anchor upstream from the bank anglers. “I don’t want to crowd those guys. They’re fishing too far out, casting right over the good water in front of them, but they don’t know it.

We’ll fish here.”

We occupied the middle of the river to drift our jigs into the “buckets” that Crandall knew from experience held the most fish.

Way downstream, Jen’s float plunged. Her rod arced when the fish wallowed at the tailout.

She put the backbone to it to keep the fish from running the rapids. And then the guy on the bank cast over her line. His float, jig and weights tangled on Jennifer’s rig, he gave the line slack.

Jennifer stole line bit by bit and the fish took it back, then

Jen gained again — the current, the line and the graphite on her side. Crandall dipped the net and 6 pounds of ocean-fueled rainbow fury was ours.

Crandall clipped Jennifer’s line in a couple of places and freed the other angler’s rig. We basked in the glow of Jen’s first steelhead success.

Rob hooked up next. Bright as a new-minted nickel, the fish broke water downstream and turned a back flip above the surface. A big, wild summer-run, we brought him to shore and turned him back.

The rain never stopped. By 2 o’clock, water soaked through my hat and ran down the sides of my face.

The last drift was a long run.

When the float had almost reached the tailout, it disappeared. The fish charged toward our boat and allowed me to gain a prodigious amount of line before it battled 20 feet off the rod tip. I saw it then, a slab of silver in the green water. At the bank, we guided the 12-pound wild hen into the net and then back out again to seed the mighty river with her offspring. I was exultant. Each steelhead is as good as the first.

Kipling would have agreed.

“My hands were cut and bleeding,” he wrote. “I was dripping with sweat, spangled like a harlequin with scales, water from my waist down, nose peeled by the sun, but utterly, supremely, and consummately happy.”

Today, that 15-mile drive from Portland past the loafers and well-dressed women is paved the whole way to the Clack. Generations upon generations of steelhead have passed through the jaws of the great river. By undeserved grace there are still wild steelhead — fish that transcend time and our own generations when we test each other on the water.

FLY-TYING CORNER

By Gary Lewis For The Bulletin

When most anglers try to match caddis hatches in late spring and early summer, another hatch might be in the offing. Called the early orange stonefly, western yellow stonefly and yellow sally, the nymph is mottled tan/brown/light yellow in color and when it hatches, it is bright yellow to light brown with tan or yellow wings.

Look for this little yellow stonefly when the nymphs migrate to slower water, then crawl to shore in late spring and summer. Fish the dry close to the bank and prospect in the back-eddies. Tie this low-riding fly with a bushier hackle for riffled water and sparse for quiet water.

Construct the Yellow Sally with yellow thread on a No. 8-14 long dry-fly hook. Tie a tag of red floss then build the body with light yellow Antron, ribbed with fine gold wire. Tie in two strands of Krystal Flash for the underwing, then tie the wing with deer hair gauged to the

To Sisters Greg Cross / The Bulletin

ou know why it’s named the Metolius, don’t you?”

I asked my kids.

“Why?” one of them said.

I love it when they take the bait.

“Because of … the Metolius Monster!” I said, using my scariest voice, which, granted, is probably a little high-pitched to frighten effectively.

When one of them asked where I got my “not funny” material, I said I made it up, and gave a brief biography for the Metolius Monster: “The Metolius Monster was supposedly destroyed by the wizard of Wizard Falls, but is rumored to fly in on weekends and mess with fishermen.”

Throughout the hike along the beautiful Metolius River on Sunday, I used the fictional beast as an excuse to leap out from behind random ponderosas and incense cedars lining the western edge of the river, which flows north into Lake Billy Chinook.

While we (read: I) could stand accused of disturbing the hushed, tranquil environs of the blissfully easy Metolius River Trail that morning, here’s the thing about April: There aren’t a lot of people around (yet), which means that you can have your cakewalk and eat it too loudly.

Wizard Falls Fish Hatchery produces approximately 7 million trout, 5 million steelhead and 33 million salmon annually.

We drove the 45 miles from Bend to Wizard Falls Fish Hatchery with one stop, to see where the Metolius Springs form the river’s headwaters. A short, paved path leads you directly to the scenic viewpoint, where the waters gush from the ground. On either side of the path are small signs warning to keep off private property, so you’ll want to stay on the pavement.

Variable conditions on trails this week

By Heidi Hagemeier The Bulletin

Check the weather first before heading to the trails this coming week, as anything from sunshine to snowstorms might greet you.

The forecast calls for a few inches to up to a foot of new snow in the mountains. Yet by Saturday, rain is expected from Bend all the way to roughly 6,300 feet, the approximate elevation of the Dutchman Flat Sno-park.

This means people should be prepared, even as there is plenty of winter recreation left to be had, said Chris Sabo, trails specialist for the Deschutes National Forest.

“Choose wisely, have some winter gear with you and have some fun,” Sabo said.

With varying conditions, the snow may be hard one day, and soft and heavy the next.

Plows continue to work their way north on the Cascade Lakes Highway.

Sabo recommends that snowmobilers leaving from the Mount Bachelor area don’t go any farther south than Devils

TRAIL UPDATE Lake. Elk Lake Resort is now closed.

Workers suspended plowing on Road 21 to Newberry Crater this past week to wait for a thick layer of ice on the road to soften. Thus, for the time being, the area remains accessible to snowmobiles.

There is still roughly six feet of snow atop McKenzie Pass as well, Sabo said.

For those hoping to escape snow, Sabo said trails are beginning to firm up at lower elevations.

The Phil’s Trail complex is ready for running and biking for roughly the first five to seven miles from the trailhead.

The Deschutes River Trails are clear from Meadow Camp to about Benham Falls, which is more than eight miles upstream.

The Peterson Ridge complex south of Sisters is also in good shape, although Sabo has heard reports of mud along

Metolius River trails.

Snow on the road to Tumalo Falls is beginning to melt, but there is still plenty of the white stuff starting about a mile in. Sabo doesn’t expect the road to be clear for at least three weeks.

Whether at high elevations or lower portions of the Deschutes forest, expect to see trees and other obstructions on the trails, Sabo said, especially because this was a particularly windy winter. Only limited trail maintenance has occurred thus far, and more downed trees will be exposed as the snow melts.

To truly find dry conditions, Sabo said, head east. Smith Rock, the Badlands, Horse Butte and other areas are prime for spring running, horseback riding and hiking. Biking is allowed outside of wilderness areas.

And besides, a cool spring has its upside.

“The good news is the mosquitoes aren’t out yet,” Sabo said.

Heidi Hagemeier can be reached at 541-617-7828 or at hhagemeier@bendbulletin.com.

SPOTLIGHT Volunteers needed for Smith Rock project Volunteers are needed for a Smith Rock Restoration Project from 9 a.m. to noon Saturday. The project will include planting grasses near a pedestrian bridge at the park and is sponsored by SOLV, an Oregon nonprofit organization focused on environmental stewardship.

There is no cost to attend, but SOLV asks that people preregister so they know how many to expect.

Interested volunteers can register at www.solv.org (click on “Find a volunteer opportunity”) or by calling Brett Lyon at 800-333-7658, ext. 332.

Quarrelsome couple take hostility to new heights Dear Abby: We have been friends with “The Bickersons” for quite some time. They never have a kind word to say to each other. Mr. B. now has a terminal illness, and you would think they’d be kinder to each other at a time like this. On the contrary, their fights are more groundless and vicious than ever. It is becoming increasingly difficult to be around them. This is when they need friends more than ever, but they’re driving everyone away! What can we do?

— Love Is All We Need Dear Love: While you might imagine that when a spouse has a terminal illness it would bring the couple closer together, that is not always the case. Mr. B. may be frightened, angry, in pain and taking it out on his wife.

Mrs. B. may be furious at her husband for being sick and dependent, and requiring her to have gone from being a wife to a caregiver. Also, they both may be settling old scores.

Because it’s painful to watch what’s going on but you want to be supportive, consider socializing with them separately. They may appreciate the time they get to spend away from each other.

Dear Abby: When does dieting become rude? I have always enjoyed inviting friends and family over for dinner. But lately it seems everyone is on some kind of diet and “can’t eat that.”

I fix healthy meals — free of fats, sugars and salt.

If someone has a dietary restriction or wants to pass on dessert, I am fine with that, of course.

I don’t like it, though, when my carefully prepared meals turn into leftovers or get thrown away off someone’s plate.

Why would anyone accept a dinner invitation and then turn into a picky guest? Would eating an average serving of a good meal once a week blow someone’s diet?

— Lost The Joy Of Cooking

DEAR ABBY Dear Lost The Joy: I’ll answer your questions in reverse order.

Eating an “average serving of a good meal” once a week COULD blow someone’s diet, depending on the kind of diet the person is on. And the reason someone who is on a severely restricted diet would accept a dinner invitation on a weekly basis might be because he or she wants to see you, wants to see some of the other guests or doesn’t want to be left out. But for a conclusive answer, you need to query the dieter.

Dear Abby: My mother and I are very close, and I love her very much, but I have a problem.

Mom goes on every single field trip with my class. There have even been times when she was the only parent in attendance.

The teachers are grateful for her, but it’s becoming embarrassing.

I’m a freshman in a private high school, and I want to start doing things more independently.

What’s the best way to tell Mom before my next trip that I prefer she not go without hurting her feelings?

— I’m A Big Girl Now Dear Big Girl: Talk to your mother at a time when you are both calm. She needs to understand that her hovering is making you self-conscious when you need some independence.

However, keep in mind that she may be the only parent who is volunteering and has the time to assist in the field trips — which is why the teachers are grateful.

What I’m trying to convey is how important it is for you and your mother to communicate honestly with each other.

‘Stone Cold ’ wants to know if you’re ‘Tough Enough’

By Luaine Lee

As host and drill sergeant for the new USA series “WWE Tough Enough,” “Stone Cold” Steve Austin tests WWE hopefuls in the ring.

McClatchy-Tribune News Service

PASADENA, Calif. — Though he doesn’t admit it, “Stone Cold” Steve Austin, the Hall of Fame wrestler from World Wrestling Entertainment, is warming up.

He gave up wrestling eight years ago after a mishap in the ring left him with two crushed vertebrae in his neck that had to be fused.

But looking at him today you’d never know he quit.

Tall, muscular, with a shaved head and blondish mustache and goatee, Austin is back in the game.

As host and drill sergeant for the new USA series “WWE Tough Enough,” Austin imposes the same rigorous standards he once used on himself.

The show pits young WWE hopefuls against each other in the ring, both men and women. “Those first few weeks you’re really judged on your in-ring performance because you’re going to have to weed through those who really don’t belong,” he said.

“And then things start to get tougher. And that’s truly based on performance — some people just don’t have it.”

When he was 7, he happened to catch wrestling on TV. It was love at first sight.

“We call it ‘sports entertainment’ these days, but that’s what I know and love. So I can watch somebody get in that ring and within five or 10 minutes tell you whether they belong or don’t belong, whether they have a chance to make it or hit the road and good luck in your future endeavor.”

Austin never wrestled in high school, but was an allaround athlete. “I was a pretty shy kid growing up; I was a regular-size kid. In Edna (Texas), the first year you can play football is the seventh grade ... Because Edna is a

USA Network via McClatchyTribune News Service

little town with not much going on, the coaches would let me work out as a seventh grader,” he said.

“My whole career from fifth grade on until I was a senior in high school, I didn’t drink, didn’t party — I played athletics. I had a weight bench outside on our cement slab. And when the high school gym wasn’t open, I would be at home on Friday and Saturday nights working on my concrete slab ... I played football, ran track and played baseball.”

He earned three football scholarships, chose one to junior college, another to the University of North Texas. “I blew my knee out and rehabbed and played 11 games the next year as weak side defensive end, then I got into the professional wrestling business,” he said.

“Over the course of the next 15 years I screwed up some more ligaments in my knees. But my neck is where I ultimately got out of the business.”

Austin was so eager to try wrestling that he dropped out of college with just 17 hours left to finish his degree in physical education. Avidly he’d watch the

‘WWE Tough Enough’ Wh e n : 8 p.m. Mondays Where: USA matches Friday nights and the workouts the next morning.

“One of the guys, Gentleman Chris Adams, was having a seminar after the show. I knew I was going to that seminar. I paid my $45, all dressed up in black Gibo pants and a purple shirt, had long blond hair and didn’t have any facial hair. I was a pretty good lookin’ kid back then before all this happened.”

He was already working on the freight dock earning $12 an hour and had no idea what a fledgling wrestler earned. “I was making $15 and $20 a night,” he said.

“Because I didn’t have any money for food, I went to the

store and bought 10 cans of tuna fish, a bag of potatoes and some disposable razors. I would shave using soap.

“For breakfast, lunch and dinner I’d have a can of tuna fish and a potato. I didn’t have anything to cook with, so I peeled the potatoes with my pocketknife. After three or four days of that my tuna fish ran out and I hadn’t got paid yet. So for three and a half days — until my paycheck came in — I’d peel a potato for breakfast, lunch and dinner. That went on for several months. But I was having the time of my life and learning every time I went to the ring.”

The 46-year-old admits he took steroids while he was wrestling and that with WWE matches the outcome is predetermined.

“If people think you really don’t like each other, it’s going to be a heck of a match. But there’s cooperation going on out there.

Now you’re going to be snug and make things look real good, but two guys fighting out there is ugly. It’s not what the fans are there to see. They want to be entertained, they want to see the story unfold, what psychology you’re going to use, how they can get involved. It’s a lesson in psychology which separates the best from the also-rans.”

The laws of gravity and physics still apply, he says. “And you can’t fake that. When you get a 250-pound guy slamming you, it hurts. Now you’re hoping that he slams you down flat because that’s the best landing, but bad things happen.”

Married to wife No. 4 and the father of two girls, 18 and 14, Austin lives on a 2,100-acre ranch south of San Antonio. “The name is Broken Skull Ranch because I had to break my skull to get it.”

NBC via The Associated Press

Larry David, right, makes a cameo appearance in “The Paul Reiser Show,” starring Paul Rieser, left. The show follows the same format as David’s HBO series “Curb Your Enthusiasm.”

‘Paul Reiser Show’ proves you can’t copy the inimitable

By Alessandra Stanley New York Times News Service

Margarine and Jayne Mansfield were lesser substitutes that nonetheless filled a void — during World War II butter was rationed and by the late 1950s and early ’60s Marilyn Monroe was often unavailable.

“The Paul Reiser Show,” which begins on NBC tonight, is a pale imitation of Larry David’s “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” and that makes no sense. By the way, HBO will bring back that original for an eighth season in July. Reiser’s new series mostly proves what everybody already knows: “Curb Your Enthusiasm” really is inimitable.

So it’s almost baffling to see Reiser, a talented comedian who was a producer and star of the hit 1990s sitcom “Mad About You,” return to television in a comedy wrapped around his real-life persona as a former Hollywood star with time on his hands to meddle with his friends’ lives and get into silly scrapes. (Success in Hollywood sometimes looks like failure with money.)

The debt is so obvious that Reiser makes a joke of it, having David appear on the premiere episode as his cantankerous fictional self, irritated at being summoned all the way to the San Fernando Valley for a conversation they could have had on the phone. (Reiser made a cameo appearance as himself on “Curb Your Enthusiasm.”)

And one of the funnier moments in the first episode is the one in which Larry goads Paul into doing a version of his show.

“In life I’m nice; on TV I’m mean — you’re the opposite,” Larry splutters. “You should be doing your version of ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’ because you are so much worse than I am.’”

That’s pretend advice, but it’s still very bad. Paul isn’t nearly as rude as the fictional Larry, and that’s less fun. In this iteration he is a well-meaning, idle and forgetful husband and father of two who goes into swivets over nothing with his posse of pals, the fathers of his sons’ friends. Some of these buddies are amusing, particularly Omid

‘The Paul Reiser Show’ When: 8:30 tonight Where: NBC Djalili as a distressed-warehouse operator named Habib, who sells everything from Russian glue to Lacoste-like polo shirts with an upside-down crocodile emblem. “The stuff I sell is damaged, not dangerous,” Habib explains.

The series is better when it strays from David’s format, but mostly it follows it too closely.

This show is scripted, whereas “Curb Your Enthusiasm” is largely improvised, and the music isn’t exactly the same — “Curb Your Enthusiasm” favors Italian circus music whereas “The Paul Reiser Show” went for a kind of French jazz tango.

Even Reiser’s pretend wife, Claire (Amy Landecker), has the same toothy smile and plaintive tone as Larry’s estranged wife, Cheryl (Cheryl Hines).

Worse, both shows have the same premise.

Reiser says in one of the brief monologues that precede each episode that he has everything anyone could want in life, except a second act. And that is a problem that many of his peers have had to face. David managed to find a new comic incarnation for himself after “Seinfeld,” the show he wrote and co-created with Jerry Seinfeld. Seinfeld hasn’t found as good a niche: His attempt at producing a reality show, “The Marriage Ref,” was renewed by NBC for a second season, but it is not a cult favorite, let alone a hit.

Sometimes it takes a third try. After “Friends” ended, Matt LeBlanc tried a spinoff, “Joey,” that didn’t do well. But he is now very funny playing a slightly fictionalized version of himself as a spoiled Hollywood star on “Episodes,” a comedy that Showtime co-produced with the BBC. Reiser has some amusing moments, but his comedy would be better if it didn’t try so hard to copy the inimitable.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Thursday, April 14, 2011: This year, focus on your health and your day-to-day life, work or commitments. You can break patterns and open up to new possibilities, making this period very exciting. You also need to curb a sweet tooth and a tendency to go overboard. A little self-discipline goes a long way. If you are single, you could meet someone in your normal daily routine. This person might not be “the one,” but it could be a significant relationship.

If you are attached, the two of you become more of a team.

VIRGO keeps you grounded.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHH An even approach works wonders. Your instincts guide you past a problem. Be ready to flex with someone’s request. You really have no choice, no matter how you look at the matter. Relax with a boss or elder. Tonight: Could go till the wee hours.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH You might feel like you cannot get a perspective no matter how hard you try. Be adaptable, and tap into your creativity. A meeting provides food for thought.

Gain a different perspective by talking to some experts. Tonight: Start your weekend early.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH If you can work from home,

by all means, do. You could be overly tired and drawn from the recent pace. Deal with a partner or associate directly. You could find a key person inspiring yet confusing.

Tonight: Your home is your castle.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Follow your instincts, as you will tumble onto a problem otherwise. If you think a friend is being deceitful or hiding something, he or she probably is. Know that you might not understand why. Revamp your plans and adjust accordingly.

Tonight: Hang out with friends.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHH Be aware of how much you bring to different situations. You often might feel as if you push beyond what you should. Giving 100 percent is different from being motivated by insecurity. Stop and ask yourself what your motivation in a situation is. Tonight: Treat yourself on the way home.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHHH Someone close seems nearly perfect! You need to be aware that perhaps you are wearing rose-colored glasses. Stop and take another look. Allow greater creativity and flow with others. You don’t need to worry about giving too much away. Tonight: As you like it.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHH You might want to slow down. You’ll gain new information by not being as active of a player in a situation. You might need to revamp your approach, stand and/or attitude as your perspective transforms. Tonight: Vanish happily!

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHHH Zoom in on what you

want. You could be surrounded by people nearly all day as you go from meeting to meeting. You gain support for a new or seemingly foreign idea. Approach the topic in a novel way, much like the idea.

Tonight: Where the action is!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Take the lead on a project.

Yes, you could be distracted at first.

A personal matter knocks on your door. Others want to hear more of your opinions. Also consider the personal ramifications of a situation. Tonight: A force to behold.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHHH Reach out for others, especially if you want another perspective. The more views and opinions you gather, the stronger your decision and plan will be. You might need to revamp your thinking as a result, turning some heads. Tonight: Let your imagination be the lead player.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH Deal with others on a oneon-one level. Your time and attention mean more than you imagine.

You draw a strong response. You learn a lot more of what others expect and what they think they offer. Tonight: Dinner for two!

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH You have the unique ability to draw in others. Though you might not always see eye to eye with certain people, you appreciate their feedback. Don’t push so hard to make an impression. You don’t need to! Tonight: Think “weekend plans.” © 2010 by King Features Syndicate

Though the Metolius is located near Black Butte, geologists believe the Cascades to be the source of the river, which springs from dry ground and flows into Lake Billy Chinook.

Outing Continued from E1 Like others, I mistakenly believed that the headwaters came from beneath nearby Black Butte, but a sign there explains that geologists actually believe the cold springs originate from the Cascades, to the west.

Either way, it’s always a rush to see the water pouring out, seemingly from nowhere, along with the sight of moss-covered rocks and a full-fledged river.

The spot also affords a lovely downstream view of the winding river.

Much to the chagrin of the kids and our dog, we climbed back in the van and drove a few miles downstream to the hatchery, named after the colorful blue falls that tumble under the one-lane bridge leading to the hatchery.

The hatchery is open daily from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m., and dogs are allowed, albeit on leash. The hatchery raises rainbow and brook trout, along with kokanee, chinook and Atlantic salmon.

According to signs at the hatchery, it annually raises 7 million trout, 5 million steelhead and 33 million salmon.

If you go What: Metolius River and Wizard Falls Fish Hatchery Getting there: From Sisters, drive north on U.S. Highway 20 for 9.6 miles to Forest Road 14.

Turn right and follow signs to the Metolius and Wizard Falls Fish Hatchery.

Difficulty: Easy Contact: 541-383-5300 or 541-595-6611 (fish hatchery) We dug out fistfuls of quarters to buy fish food. Why it’s so fun to feed fish is one of those great mysteries, but there’s just something satisfying about watching the fish zip to the surface and gulp it down.

According to Deschutes National Forest’s website, those who visit the area may spot a “Barrow’s goldeneye, hooded merganser, common merganser, osprey, bald eagle, spotted sandpiper, ruffed grouse and Hammond’s flycatcher.”

Truth be told, I wouldn’t know most of those bird species if they pecked me on the cheek, but there was no mistaking the bald eagle that descended and

perched upon a tall snag next to the large settling pond at the facility. I got as close as I could, and took multiple photos of the bird, wishing the dead tree branches obscuring it had a little more respect for our nation’s majestic symbol.

From the edge of the pond, it’s a short walk to the river trail. We headed north about a mile, taking in the gorgeous views, climbing on logs and passing the occasional cluster of friendly fly fishermen.

“Why do grown-ups always, like, nod or go, ‘How you doin’?’” my daughter Lucy wanted to know.

“Uh, because we’re all out enjoying nature?” I guessed.

In the case of my daughters, enjoying nature meant alternately singing “This Land is Your Land” and the irreverent version I taught them, “This Land is My Land.”

On the way home, we drove through Camp Sherman, already starting to bustle with visitors milling about the roads, getting an early start on the season. The Metolius Monster was not seen among them.

NUTRITION MEDICAL

After age 60, fewer calories are required

Putting on a

happy face

By Anne Aurand The Bulletin

As people’s bodies age, their nutritional needs evolve.

And for biological as well as socioeconomical reasons, seniors are frequently at risk for poor nutrition, which can lead to problems such as anemia, bone fractures, osteoporosis or constipation.

But first, it’s important to clarify that the turning point in a senior’s nutritional health is not defined by a particular age.

“We used to call ‘seniors’ Inside 65,” said Car• What’s the ol Schrader, nutritional a registered advice for dietitian at your age St. Charles group?

Bend.

“But now, ‘seniors’ Page F5 are like 80.”

Clearly, not all seniors are alike. Some 65year-olds are inactive, frail and malnourished. Some 80-year-olds work out with personal trainers, chug water and eat ravenously.

Regardless of the specific year, at some point aging bodies lose muscle and bone strength. Digestion and nutrient absorption slows down.

Teeth and taste buds weaken.

When these things happen largely depends on genetics and on a lifetime of health, nutrition and fitness habits.

But even in the best of situations, Schrader said, somewhere around age 60 bodies start burning fewer calories, so people need to decrease their caloric intake 15 to 20 percent to avoid gaining weight. Those coming into their senior years carrying too much fat are more likely to have health problems including cancer, diabetes, hypertension and coronary artery disease, Schrader said.

Evidence suggests a positive attitude doesn’t help treatment

By Markian Hawryluk The Bulletin

I

t’s an almost universally accepted ideal — the patient who’s beating cancer because of a positive attitude. In media reports, caregiver instructions and advice from loved ones and support groups, cancer patients are repeatedly reminded that being optimistic and upbeat is critical in the battle against cancer. Unless a patient chooses to be a fighter, a warrior or any number of other militaristic metaphors, there is little hope of survival.

But as often as the notion is repeated, there is scant evidence to suggest attitude has any impact on a patient’s outcome. And many cancer experts are concerned for patients facing debilitating treatment and their own mortality are being pressured to paint smiles on their faces and adopt a cheery disposition regardless of their true feelings.

That pressure has been dubbed the “tyranny of positive thinking” by one cancer doctor, and there’s growing concern over its unintended consequences.

“Many people come to see me or other therapists for help with depressed feelings precisely because they don’t fit today’s popular model for coping with cancer,” Dr. Jimmie Holland, a noted oncologist at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, wrote in her book “The Human Side of Cancer.” “So they come to see me in the hope of getting fixed up and altered into a ‘healthy, normal’ coper.”

Kids learn to love cycling thanks to local workshops

By Anne Aurand The Bulletin

Biking is one lifelong activity that can keep people fit and healthy from preschool through retirement.

A couple of organizations in Bend aim to instill a lifelong love of cycling in Central Oregon’s youth by mentoring young riders and teaching them a broad range of cycling skills with a heavy emphasis on fun. Although cycling can be a family affair, some parents say their kids learn better from professional coaches and are more likely to acquire a passion for cycling from their peers.

Bill Warburton, cycling director and coach at the Bend Endurance Academy, said his youth cycling programs take groups of kids riding in places such as Shevlin Park and various Forest Service roads and trails. With the youngest and newest riders, they spend time exploring creeks and breaking for snacks, so it’s an all-around fun, outdoor adventure.

“We’re tricking them into riding their bikes,” he said. “It’s not about drills and making them do long

“We’re trying to give kids love of it so their parents can enjoy riding their bikes with them, rather than teach.”

For families that want to get the youngest kids rolling this summer, Bend Endurance Academy (www.bendenduranceacademy.org) offers a Mini Bikes camp for ages 6 to 8 and Mighty Bikes camp for ages 8 to 12. The academy offers a series of progressive camps for older and more experienced kids who are ready to tackle challenging obstacles or train for racing.

THE DOCTOR IS ALWAYS IN

Physicians more accessible thanks to e-communication

By Cassandra Spratling

By Michelle Andrews

Detroit Free Press

Special to The Washington Post

DETROIT — Almost a year ago, Kristen Cullen’s husband broke out in hives from head to toe. She suspected he was having an adverse reaction to medication. But she wasn’t sure what to do.

It was late on a Sunday evening. Not typical doctor hours.

But Cullen didn’t panic.

She turned to one of the trusted tools she has come to rely on since Niall Cullen was diagnosed with colon cancer: her cellphone. She called his oncologist, Dr. Philip A. Philip of the Barbara Ann Karmanos Cancer Institute.

Philip immediately arranged for Niall Cullen to be admitted to the Karmanos wing at Harper Hospital in Detroit. Once there, the attending physician used his cellphone to e-mail a photo of Niall to Philip and other physicians handling his case.

Increasingly, caregivers like Cullen and patients are texting, e-mailing, even using Skype to reach health care providers. Many doctors and patients find that newer technologies help strengthen their communication.

“Certainly the explosion in the use of smartphones will mean more and more patients will be communicating with their health care providers using either e-mail or text messaging,” says Philip. “I feel that with improved communication options for patients and families, better care can be provided, and patient or family concerns addressed in a more timely fashion or in real time.”

In Niall Cullen’s case, doctors quickly developed a treatment plan that eliminated the hives and got him back to work as a software salesman within a couple of days.

“I fear what could have happened had I not been able to get hold of Dr. Philip,” says Kristen Cullen, 40. “They told me that on a scale of 1 to 10 for adverse reactions; he was at Level 9. It was life-threatening if he hadn’t been seen and treated as quickly as he was.

“My phone is my lifeline to his doctors,” Cullen says.

Community health centers serve 20 million people every year, and that number is expected to double by 2015, thanks to an $11 billion infusion from the health care overhaul and $2 billion in federal stimulus funds. If you’re a middle-income worker with health insurance through your job, chances are these centers have been under your radar, since their target clients are lowincome and uninsured people.

But as the number of uninsured has risen to 50 million, more people than ever are struggling to get and pay for health care, and community health centers are an affordable option. As they expand, they’re adding new services and new locations nationwide.

Although their mission is to provide a primary-care safety net for people in underserved areas, no one is ever turned away from a community health center.

People with incomes up to 200 percent of the federal poverty level ($44,700 for a family of four in 2011) pay on a sliding scale; uninsured people with higher incomes pay the full cost of care, which is generally comparable to costs in the private sector.

The centers accept Medicaid and Medicare in addition to many private insurance plans.

The new health care law is full of incentives to encourage doctors to provide “medical homes” for their patients, with coordinated care and close patient monitoring to stay on top of necessary preventive services. But community health centers have always taken this approach, say experts.

“It’s necessity on their part,” says Laurie Felland, a senior health researcher at the Center for Studying Health System Change. “Because of the difficulty low-income people face in getting services … community health centers over time have tried to add them.”

In addition to primary care, many community health centers have behavioral health providers, pharmacies, and preventive and restorative dental services on site. Some have pediatric centers, reflecting the fact that more than a third of their patients are children.

At the William F. Ryan Community Health Center on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, the new women and children’s center is decorated in slate gray with bright primary color accents. The building has banks of windows looking down on the street and is so expansive that staff members carry around tablet computers to keep tabs on patients, says Jessica Sessions, director of pediatrics. “Patients are happier here,” she says.

A Commonwealth Fund survey of 800 community health centers last year found that 29 percent of them had all five of the medical-home indicators it measured, among them usually providing same- or next-day appointments, offering off-hours clinical advice, tracking test results and referring patients to specialists. An additional 55 percent of centers had three or four indicators.

Still, arranging for specialty care can be tough, the survey found. Ninety-one percent of centers said they had trouble getting their uninsured patients in to see a specialist, while 71 percent said that was the case for Medicaid patients, and 49 percent reported difficulty scheduling their Medicare patients with specialists.

Wait times are another problem at many centers. In part because they don’t turn anyone away, getting an initial appointment can take months. Once someone becomes a patient at a center, wait times for appointments aren’t generally as long, but they still exist.

Continued federal funding for community health centers faces some obstacles. House Republicans have suggested they may trim the government’s contributions as part of the party’s effort to cut federal spending.

The electronic push While many patients find such technology extremely useful, some doctors remain reluctant to use it even though the demand is pushing more and more doctors to communicate electronically.

A national poll of 1,612 parents showed that more than half of them would find electronic communication with their children’s health care providers very helpful, but fewer than 15 percent of those parents were actually able to communicate electronically with their child’s pediatrician or other health care providers.

“The study found a big gap between what parents can currently do and what parents feel would be helpful,” said Dr. Matthew Davis, director of the C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital National Poll on Children’s Health at the University of Michigan. Davis, a pediatrician, says he is comfortable with electronic communication.

“My e-mail address is on my card,” he says. But Davis said he recognizes that some doctors are concerned about medical liability, privacy and compensation.

While there are no universal guidelines for electronic communication between physicians and patients, most doctors use it only with patients with whom they have already established a relationship. “We need to see electronic messaging as a replacement for a phone call,” Davis says, “not as a substitution for a visit.”

Davis and others expect electronic communication to

VITAL STATS How How expensive expensive is is Bend?

Bend?

Bend has long been an example of low-cost, high-quality health care. But new data from an Institute of Medicine report suggest that it may be just that our population is healthier. While Bend comes in at the low end in actual cost, when you factor in the cost of living and health of the population, the costs grow.

In the risk-adjusted model, Bend is the most expensive area for Medicare in the state.

Kristen Cullen sits with her husband Niall, who has been diagnosed with colon cancer, at the Karmanos Cancer Center in Detroit. “My phone is my lifeline to his doctors,” Kristen said.

Kristen Cullen, of West Bloomfield, Mich., uses her laptop and smartphone to stay in communication with her husband Niall’s doctors at the Karmanos Cancer Center in Detroit. increase due to demand.

“I think it’s inevitable that physicians will move more toward it, if only because society expects and insists on it as the progressively dominant form of communication today,” Davis said.

Last October, Beaumont Hospital in Royal Oak, Mich., began using consultation centers in its cardiovascular center. They are outfitted with a system called WebEx that allows video chats for doctors to communicate with patients and/or caregivers who cannot be present at the facility.

An access code and password allows people out of town, or even out of the country, to talk with people in the room.

Dr. Marc Sakwa, chief of cardiovascular surgery, says he has found the system especially helpful for talking with the adult children of elderly patients when those children live out of town.

“Very often, especially in metro Detroit, you have kids who have moved away to New York or California or wherever, and the kids want to know what’s going on. The patient tells their children what’s going

on, but a lot of things get lost in the translation,” Sakwa says.

“Now, we can set the room up in advance. Everybody’s together and everybody understands what’s going on. I think it’s the wave of the future.

“I think it makes the patient and the family more comfortable,” he says. “Say the mother is going to have a surgery. The daughter can’t be there for all the pre operative consultation.

But the mother doesn’t understand all the nuances of what’s going on or she forgets to ask a question that the daughter asked. If we’re all there in the same room, it relieves a lot of stress for everyone.”

Updates and questions Dr. Philip of Karmanos expects e-communication to increase and agrees it’s a good thing. He e-mails patients regularly. He has also put out-of-town relatives on speaker phone during consultations with patients.

“In addition to offering an additional communication option e-mails are easier to handle because unlike a telephone page that needs immediate attention

I can reply to the e-mail without having to interrupt something that I am doing,” the doctor said. “I can also reply to e-mail even if I am out of state or the country.”

Philip says technology also allows some exams to take place without an office visit.

“Patients who start on a new treatment that is expected to cause some major side effects can have their condition monitored in real time using the Internet, including the uploading of digital photographs,” he says.

Dr. Tsveti Markova, a family medicine physician with the Wayne State University Physicians Group, says the health system’s movement toward becoming more patientcentered demands e-communication and in some ways it’s easier for doctors.

“Most of us would rather intervene sooner than later,” Markova says. “E-mailing and texting is fine as long as the communication is secure.”

Kristen Cullen believes technology saved her husband’s life.

She keeps her phone with her constantly, and sometimes has her laptop at her side.

When there’s a new development, she e-mails his doctors with an update. Doctors usually respond shortly thereafter with a text, an e-mail or phone call.

Niall Cullen used his smartphone only once to communicate with his doctors.

F EXERCISE TIPS STRETCHING PART 3

Rotator cuff

Rob Kerr / The Bulletin

Matt Kirchoff, a physical therapist with Therapeutic Associates in Bend, offers stretching tips for people to do at home to address common muscle imbalances.

Different stretches will be featured each week in The Bulletin for six weeks.

Kirchoff said stretches should be held at least 30 seconds, and should be done gently, without straining or bouncing. Stretches can be done more than once a day.

What: Rotator cuff, the muscles that stabilize the shoulders.

Who: For anyone who throws, such as baseball and football players,

or people who play tennis or other shoulder-intensive activities.

How: Lie on your right side. Put the right elbow out in front of you, straight ahead of your shoulder.

Elbow should be bent, and the palm facing down toward the floor. Use the left hand to gently push the right hand toward the floor. Hold at least 30 seconds and repeat on other side.

Tips: The goal is not to touch the right hand to the floor. Gently pressing the hand toward the floor will stretch the shoulder.

Cycling Continued from F1 Similar biking programs are offered by the Mt. Bachelor Sports Education Foundation, which aims to help student athletes achieve their athletic goals, according to its website (www. mbsef.org). It emphasizes sportsmanship, self-discipline, goalsetting, and a lifetime of healthy activities. Its road cycling, mountain biking and cyclocross programs are for children between ages 8 and 18.

Warburton said kids seem motivated and inspired by riding with other kids, their friends.

“They see it’s not just ‘my parents want me to do this,’ but other people enjoy it,” he said.

And if kids learn from coaches, it might be more fun for the parent, too.

“We’re trying to give kids love of it so their parents can enjoy riding their bikes with them, rather than teach,” he said. “It’s a different dynamic, when the parent is teaching versus just enjoying it with their kids.”

Jill Ballantyne’s 10-year-old son, Jett, started the Mighty Bikes program last year, where he spent a couple of hours a day for most of the summer. Ballantyne has been a serious cyclist and racer since the 1980s. When she took her son riding on the Swampy Lakes trail system, she was amazed by his technical skills and abilities.

She taught him to ride first, but since she’s a single mom and Jett has an older sister, she really wanted to expose him to riding with other boys. Boys push him in a different way than she could, and it’s as much about socialization as skill building, she said.

She figured it was better for Jett to learn “without mom constantly telling him what to do.”

In addition to handling a bike, coaches and mentors teach students how to repair their bikes.

They require kids to carry water, pumps and tubes, to be prepared for mishaps and be self-suffi-

Cameron Beard, 12, rides his road bike up a small hill in his neighborhood recently. “My skills have improved from a lover of cycling, who doesn’t know a thing, to a knowledgeable racer,” he said.

Some youth cycling opportunities • www.bendenduranceacademy.org • www.mbsef.org • www.cogwild.com/Bend-• Cycling-Club • www.athleticclubofbend.com, (Cascade Bike Camp, July 18 to 22) cient, Ballantyne said. These ideas instill an ownership of cycling in the youngster, she said.

Jett competed well in a cyclocross race, Ballantyne said.

But, “I don’t know that he has super far-reaching goals. I think he loves it and that’s probably our goal. That’s my goal, to have

him have fun with it. … I see him staying with it because when your family does it, it helps.”

Another local young rider, Cameron Beard, is a 12-year-old at Cascade Middle School who attended a series of progressive cycling camps through the academy when he was 11. He is “cur-

rently doing the full-on competition team,” he wrote in an e-mail.

He’s racing in cyclocross and road biking.

“My skills have improved from a lover of cycling, who doesn’t know a thing, to a knowledgeable racer,” he wrote.

“The thing that I love about the Academy is that the coaches are racers and have been their whole life. They know what they’re doing. They show us good race and training strategies,” he said in the e-mail. “Bill (Warburton, coach) has especially helped me make the switch from fan to racer. I feel more comfortable on the bike and a lot faster. Cycling is no doubt my favorite hobby, because it is fun and helps you get exercise.”

Cameron’s mother, Cindy Beard, said she and her husband taught him basic riding skills before she put him in camps.

But she wanted him to ride with other kids at his level, and she wanted someone else to teach him safety skills.

Beard admits that the whole idea of her son road biking and racing makes her nervous because it can be dangerous. Her husband has been hit twice by a car when biking on city roads.

But the coaches at the academy, she said, practice specific drills to address myriad risks, such as what to do when you’re road biking and you see something in your way. Riders have to make a judgment call about hitting it or swerving into the car lane.

“My husband and I ride, but as far as teaching him specific skills, I wanted that in the hands of professionals,” she said. “I think kids sometimes listen to coaches more than they would their parents.

“He always did like to ride, but now that he’s riding with his peers and he’s racing, there’s more of a passion that I don’t think we could have given him,” she said.

Distance runner Les Myers runs along the path through Forest Park in St. Louis. Myers says he’s not comfortable on a treadmill.

Distance runners can find a groove training indoors

By Cynthia Billhartz Gregorian St. Louis Post-Dispatch

ST. LOUIS — Icy roads and sub-zero weather, torrential spring rains and gusty wind — none of them can force distance runner Les Myers onto a treadmill.

He’ll pile on layers of clothing and drive from his home in Ladue to Webster Groves, Mo., where he knows the streets will be plowed and salted, to get his miles in. Or, he’ll just stay home.

“I’m not comfortable on treadmills. It’s hard to get a good workout on them,” said Myers, 55, of Ladue, Mo. He won the Third Olympiad Memorial Marathon in St. Louis in 1983, before treadmills were commonplace.

Bad weather can make running and cycling outdoors uncomfortable and even risky this time of year — just as a lot of people are training for spring races.

Some gut it out and train outside anyway. Others find themselves chugging away on a treadmill, stationary bike or, in the case of Dennis Lilly, skating in circles at the Rock-O-Rena in Arnold, Mo. “That gets pretty doggone boring going the same way round and round,” said Lilly, 55, of St. Louis, who skates competitively with Gateway Inline Speed Team. “Plus there’s nothing like being outside with the air in your face.”

Runners and cyclists will tell you that hitting the weights and the elliptical trainer are fine. But the only way to excel at their sports is to do it and to do it year round. That can mean spending mind-numbing hours sweating it out indoors, watching fractions of miles tick by on a digital readout.

We talked to several runners, cyclists and an athletic trainer who’s also an avid cyclist to find out what they like and dislike

about running and cycling indoors, and what they do to mentally get through the boredom.

Wear a heart rate monitor: This is a favorite training tool of Mark Reinking, chairman of the department of physical therapy and athletic training at St. Louis University. He also is an avid cyclist.

“I know what my heart rate does outside on my bike so if I use the heart rate monitor inside, I can better simulate the intensity of my outdoor training,” he says.

Do interval training: Jill Texier, 34, St. Louis, ran the GO! St. Louis half-marathon in 1:27 last year, placing 10th among women finishers. She mixes things up on the treadmill by sprinting ¼ mile, then jogging to recover for another ¼ mile. She repeats this several times during a workout once a week or every other week.

Split up your mileage: Texier and her husband, Matt Texier, ran the New Orleans half marathon last month. They divided a 12-mile training run on a treadmill beforehand into two sixmile runs. They stopped for less than a minute in between but it was enough of a break to provide a mental marker.

Adjust the incline and resistance: On medium-range runs, Texier would alternate running for one minute on zero grade followed by a minute at 3.5 grade then back to grade zero and so on. The same can be done by changing resistance on a stationary bike.

Focus on form: Reinking uses riding on his indoor trainer as an opportunity to work on his form. “I can work on my technique better inside than out,” he says. “Outside, I have to pay attention to traffic and road surface, but inside I can concentrate on form.”

Exercise helps seniors fight fear of falling

By Cynthia Billhartz Gregorian St. Louis Post-Dispatch

ST. LOUIS — Rolf Krojanker was at The Monday Club in Webster Groves, Mo., on a Tuesday evening wearing two hearing aids and a T’ai Chi Ch’uan T-shirt.

Those two details might seem unrelated, but they’re not.

The American Geriatric Society recently added T’ai Chi as a form of exercise to its list of recommendations for older people who run a high risk of falling.

Checking for hearing loss has been on that list for awhile now.

In its recent updates, the society recommends that physicians review medications that their elderly patients take, and reduce the use of those that increase the risk of falling, such as antidepressants and sleeping aids.

Previously, it suggested reviewing medications if a patient was taking four or more meds. The recommendations are for patients age 65 and older, which is considered geriatric, who run a high risk of falling.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, falls are the leading cause of injury deaths among older adults in the United States, and the rate of those deaths has risen by more than 50 percent over the past decade.

In 2002, more than 12,800 people over age 65 died and 1.6 million were treated in emergen-

cy departments because of falls.

In 2007, more than 18,000 people died after falls; in 2009, more than 2.2 million older people visited emergency departments for nonfatal falls.

The CDC estimates that one out of 10 falls among older people results in serious injuries that require hospitalization and that many people spend a year or more recovering in long-term care facilities. Some never go home.

Those numbers are expected to continue growing dramatically as baby boomers age.

Dr. Dulce Cruz-Oliver, assistant professor of the department of internal medicine and geriatrics at St. Louis University, said older people who have fallen in the past run a particularly high risk of falling again.

“There are many factors that contribute to the increased risk, including changes in posture and gait, medical conditions such as dementia, Parkinson’s disease and stroke, poor eyesight and hearing,” Cruz-Oliver said.

Your risk of falling increases when the number of these biological and environmental factors increase, she said. Family doctors can determine whether you’re at risk.

Cruz-Oliver said the best way to maintain a keen sense of balance is to exercise, and to start it in your 50s before you begin

losing it.

T’ai Chi has been proved to decrease falls in the elderly.

Gait-training, physical therapy and dancing help as well, though fewer studies exist on their effectiveness.

“You need to do it one to three times a week for more than 12 weeks to really have an impact on decreasing falls,” she said.

Krojanker, 88, has been taking T’ai Chi for 10 years. When asked if he’s ever fallen, he said: “Well, of course. When I took Jiu Jitsu.”

Mike David, one of the T’ai Chi instructors, has noticed the number of older people coming to class increase significantly during the past decade.

“A fear of falling changes not just the way you move but the way you live,” he said. “Then you gain more weight by being docile and there’s more stress every time you have to move and it multiplies from there.”

Reducing falls Recommendations by The American Geriatric Society and The British Geriatric Society to help reduce the risk of falling: Exercise: Take part in programs that help improve balance, gait and strength training, such as Tai Chi or physical therapy.

Environment: Make changes to reduce your fall risk factors in the home and in daily activities, such as keeping high traffic areas clear of furniture or clutter.

Vision: Undergo cataract surgery when needed, though not as an individual approach.

Blood pressure: Raise low blood pressure and manage heart rate and rhythm abnormalities. Consuming more salt and water and wearing compression stockings can raise low blood pressure.

New tactic may help treat kids’ milk allergies

By Shari Roan Los Angeles Times

Andy Tullis / The Bulletin

Seniors dine at the Touchmark dining room in Bend recently. One of the nutritional risks some seniors face is alienation; they might not consume as much as they need if they are eating alone. Assisted living centers or senior centers can help provide the social aspect to dining.

Aging Continued from F1 Obesity, she said, is more prevalent than undernutrition because older people often become less active.

So the trick is to get more of some nutrients — to stave off the aforementioned health concerns — in fewer overall calories.

Seniors need to consume more calcium, Schrader said. Osteoporosis is a common problem for older men and women as they lose calcium in their bones. They should boost calcium intake by about 200 milligrams a day at about age 50, she said. That’s easily achieved through additional dairy products, canned salmon, leafy green vegetables or fortified foods, she said.

An additional, low-fat dairy product, such as cheese, yogurt or milk, can also assist with common problem number two: protein shortages.

People over 60 should increase protein intake by about 10 grams a day, Schrader said. Muscle loss can be partly attributed to inadequate protein. With muscle loss comes balance problems that lead to scary falls.

Older people often get in the habit of snacking lightly on things like apple sauce or crackers rather than consuming a solid meal, and that might curtail protein consumption, Schrader said.

She recommends eggs for breakfast, additional dairy products or beans at lunch, maybe a lean meat for dinner. She also recommends some strength training.

A new study published in the Journal of the American Dietetic Association suggested that inadequate nutrition is linked to a greater risk of anemia in postmenopausal women. Women with anemia consumed less protein, folate, vitamin B12, iron, vitamin C and red meat than did women without anemia, the study found. The study’s lead investigator, Cynthia Thomson, an associate professor of nutritional sciences at the University of Arizona, said in an e-mail that although many people avoid red meat because of its saturated fat and connection to heart disease, red meats are a significant source of iron. She suggested that women consider consuming some lean cuts such as flank steak or extra lean ground beef, or elk or bison, especially as they enter the menopausal years. She also recommended fortified cereals and dark greens such as spinach and kale, which are rich in B vitamins and iron.

But part of the problem is just that many seniors lose their appetite, so they eat less and shortchange intake of vitamins such as B, D and C. To add to that problem, medications can reduce the absorption of some nutrients and vitamins that they eat. Medications can in some cases also impede digestion, setting the stage for constipation. So many seniors take laxatives, which is fine in small occasional doses, said Schrader. However, abuse of laxatives can further reduce vita-

min absorption, she said. Eating lots of fiber-rich foods, such as fruits and vegetables, which also contain healthy phytochemicals, can aid digestion.

Staying social The social side of the equation is powerful when it comes to nutrition for seniors.

It’s not uncommon for people to grow isolated in their older years. Many are limited financially, too, said Schrader, who frequently works with the elderly through St. Charles. Being alone or not having money to spend can influence a senior’s eating habits. Those factors can also add up to a bit of depression, which can further diminish an appetite, she said.

But even in an assisted living center, where meals are provided in a group setting, it’s still tricky to get everyone to eat enough, said Derrell Henrichs, the chef at Bend’s Touchmark assisted living and independent living facility.

Knowing that seniors’ sense of smell and taste is diminished, and keeping in mind low-sodium dietary requirements, Henrichs incorporates different spices and seasonings to make “upscale comfort food” that will tempt his customers to eat up. Henrichs said the last taste to fade out is the sweet taste, so he cooks with a lot of anise, coriander, all spice, cloves. He uses fresh basil and dill, which are on the sweeter side.

For seniors who live at home but might not be cooking much, the Meals on Wheels program through the Central Oregon Council on Aging leans on registered dietitians and national dietary guidelines to cook wellbalanced meals that are delivered by volunteers to seniors.

The goal, according to Central Oregon Council on Aging Excutive Officer Pamela Norr, is to keep seniors living independently in their homes. If they don’t eat well, their health will be jeopardized and they might no longer be able to live independently.

Signs to watch for, which

could indicate a person may not be getting appropriate nutrition, include unintended weight loss, failing memory, increased alcohol intake, swallowing problems or poor teeth, according to Shelly Schwartz, a nutrition consultant who works in regional hospitals, long-term care centers, assisted living facilities and senior centers.

She said that seniors have a reduced ability to fight infections and malignancies. She recommended vitamin E and zinc from whole grains, nuts, lean animal meat or fish.

“Let’s face it, the pancreas, heart and kidneys do not function like they did in your twenties, so give them a break,” Schwartz said. “That means eating at least three times a day, eating a diet that is full of colorful produce for a goal of five fruits and vegetables per day, going easy on the sweet goodies and avoiding highly processed and salted foods most of the time.”

And if eating all that good food is just impossible, Schrader and Schwartz say a multivitamin or supplement can be recommended by dietitians or physicians.

Milk allergy is common and stubborn. Children who do not outgrow their milk problems will probably have a lifelong allergy, experts say.

But new tactics are emerging to help children become desensitized to milk, including one reported Monday at the annual meeting of the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology in San Francisco.

Desensitization involves giving someone tiny amounts of the substance he or she is allergic to over a period of time so that the body adapts to it without provoking an allergic response. This approach can be successful, studies show, but it does take a long time and a lot of patience.

Researchers at Stanford University and Children’s Hospital Boston created a new, expedited approach in which children were exposed to small amounts of milk powder along with the allergy drug omalizumab.

This medication, known by the brand name Xolair, is an anti-immunoglobulin E (IgE) medication. IgE is a class of antibody that is produced in an allergic response.

“IgE is the match that lights the fire behind reactions to foods or dog- or catallergies,” said a co-author of the study, Dr. Kari Nadeau, director of food allergy research at Stanford and an assistant professor of pediatrics. “Anti-IgE is a way to protect the person from having reactions while they are increasing their exposure to the food.”

In the study, 11 children with milk allergies were given omalizumab for nine weeks before being given a dose of two grams of milk protein, Nadeau said.

“That was a lot of milk for the people to tolerate,” she said. In other desensitization protocols, “it takes about six months to get to a small dose that could be tolerable. We wanted to know: Could we go faster and safer?”

On the first day of exposure to milk powder, four of the 11 children had allergic reactions, while the rest tolerated the milk without any problems. As the study continued, the children were able to tolerate more milk powder.

But more research is needed to identify which children are more likely to benefit from the therapy, Nadeau said.

“It offers hope to people with food allergies in general,” she said. Researchers are continuing to look at other medications that may assist with desensitization.

HEAL T HY C HOIC E S Cartoon characters on cereal boxes may be influencing kids, new study finds Kids like the taste of cereal better if it comes in a box decorated with a popular cartoon character, according to a study published last month in the Archives of Pediatric and Adolescent Medicine.

Researchers asked 80 children, whose mean age was 5.6 years old, to rate a cereal’s taste on a five-point smiley-face scale. One smile meant “I do not like” and five smiles meant “I really like.”

Children who saw a popular media character on the box said they liked the cereal more than those who viewed a box with no character on it, according to the abstract of the article. Children who were told the cereal was named “Healthy Bits” liked the

taste more than children who were told it was named “Sugar Bits.”

The study concluded that using known media characters influences a child’s subjective taste. It also said that messages about health do resonate with young children, but the presence of the characters on the box can override a child’s concern with nutritional health.

M CELEBRITY M EDICINE Multiple myeloma usually causes bone or back pain and paralysis Geraldine Ferraro, the first female vice presidential candidate for a major U.S. political party, died last month from a blood cancer known as multiple myeloma.

According to the National Library of Medicine, multiple myeloma is cancer of the plasma cells in bone marrow.

Plasma cells help the body’s Geraldine immune system fight Ferraro disease by producing antibodies. In multiple myeloma, those plasma cells grow out of control in the bone marrow and form tumors in the areas of solid bone. These tumors impede the bone marrow from making red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets.

As the cancer cells grow in the bone marrow, they can cause pain and destruction of the bones. If the bones in the spine are affected, it can also put pressure on the nerves resulting in numbness or paralysis.

Symptoms include bleeding problems, bone or back pain, unexplained fever or fractures, vulnerability to infections and feelings of fatigue. People who have a milder form of the disease may simply be monitored for any change in progress. More aggressive forms might be treated with medication or radiation, but chemotherapy or transplants rarely lead to a permanent cure.

How to prevent infections from surgery

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

Before surgery, you can prepare your body for healthy healing — and cut the odds of a surgical site infection that requires hospital care. Here are tips from Dr. Calin Moucha, associate chief of joint replacement surgery at Mount Sinai Medical Center in New York City: Quit smoking. Smokers have a much higher risk of complications because nicotine interferes with wound healing. “Smoking is the single most important modifiable risk factor for postoperative complication,” Moucha said.

Even quitting for a month before elective surgery helps.

Don’t go on a big diet. Many people try to lose weight if they are obese — itself a risk factor for complications — or are afraid of gaining weight after surgery. But dieting usually isn’t smart due to the threat of malnourishment, which again can slow the healing process.

Take care of your teeth. Heavy plaque build-up and infections in the teeth or gums can release bacteria into your bloodstream.

If you have an obvious problem, see a dentist before an operation.

Control your blood sugar. If you are diabetic or have an elevated blood sugar reading, work to normalize levels both before and after an operation.

Check on your medications.

Some drugs for chronic illnesses, including many anti-inflammatory pills for arthritis, may increase the risk of infection.

Ask about pre-surgical testing.

Some doctors will check for potentially dangerous bacteria that can live in the nose, as well as for existing infections in patients having a repeat surgery.

Attitude Continued from F1 Now that prevailing notion of the right way to cope may be starting to fade. Patients and their caregivers are beginning to rebel against the external pressure to don a sunny disposition and are advocating to allow each patient to choose his or her own way of dealing emotionally with cancer. But the tyranny of positive thinking may be so ingrained in our popular culture that it could take years before attitudes change.

Myth of optimism Barbara Ehrenreich, a journalist and author of the book “Bright-sided: How Positive Thinking is Undermining America,” was diagnosed with breast cancer more than 10 years ago, and soon after learned what attitude was expected of her. Even among other cancer patients, nobody seemed to share her outrage at the burdens of her disease and the prescribed treatment.

One day she ventured onto a cancer message board and under the subject line “Angry,” ranted about the debilitating effects of chemotherapy, the fights with her insurance company, carcinogens in the environment and, most daringly, the “sappy pink ribbons.” The rebuke from her fellow patients was swift and powerful.

Her attitude, she was told, would do her in and she needed to “run, not walk” to counseling. The experience led Ehrenreich to examine the evidence that a positive attitude improved a patient’s odds of surviving cancer. She found there was little conclusive research to support the claim.

The concept that attitude can conquer cancer may be traced back to several wellpublicized studies in the 1990s. One concluded that mental attitude was a better predictor of survival than the size of a patient’s tumor, the severity of their cancer or the patient’s age. Another found that breast cancer patients who expressed helplessness after their diagnosis were more likely to die or more likely to have a recurrence after treatment.

Patients welcomed the new findings, giving them at least some sense of control over what is generally an unpredictable process. By 2001, 64 percent of U.S. and Canadian survivors of ovarian cancer in one survey said that stress had in some way caused their cancer and four out of five credited their positive attitude for warding off a recurrence.

“I think there was certainly a time when a lot of support programs in the community depended on the suggestion that not only were they providing support, but they were extending patient lives,” said Dr. James Coyne, an oncologist with the University of Pennsylvania. “And I think they’re backing off of that now.”

Paucity of evidence Coyne has been a vocal critic of the trend toward forcing optimism on cancer patients and has conducted research and analyses that dispel the notion that attitude and outcomes are somehow linked.

In a large, nine-year study published in 2007, Coyne and his colleagues asked more than 1,000 cancer patients participating in a clinical trial to fill out quality-of-life questionnaires. Over the course of the study, about 60 percent of the patients died, but researchers could not find any link between emotional wellbeing and cancer progression or death.

Coyne also led a 2007 review of the evidence behind the link between positive attitudes and outcomes. The analysis found the studies claiming a link were methodologically flawed, often relying on anecdotal reports, or were of such small size that they carried no statistical significance.

Many of the studies were plagued by confounding factors. For example, patients with higher income and better social support were more

likely to report positive attitudes, but those same resources may lead to better health outcomes.

Similarly, patients with better initial health may have more positive attitudes, and better initial health predicts better cancer outcomes.

The evidence, Coyne said, was underwhelming to say the least.

For the sake of others Although the tendency to promote a positive attitude may cross over into other health conditions — the nation took solace earlier this year that Rep. Gabrielle Giffords was described repeatedly as “a fighter” as she underwent treatment following the Tucson, Ariz., shooting — it seems to be most prevalent in the cancer world.

“Cancer is scary in ways that more life-threatening conditions are not,” Coyne said. “For instance, a woman being diagnosed with congestive heart failure has a much more negative prognosis, and she has a much rougher time ahead, in what little bit of life she has left, yet no one talks about a fighting spirit in heart failure.”

Coyne believes the pressure may come from family and friends who find cancer so frightening they create this myth that the patient can somehow control his or her own fate. It’s a natural defense mechanism.

When someone gets lung cancer, others distance themselves from the same risk by attributing it to smoking. Or when someone has a heart attack, acquaintances attack the diet and lifestyle as if to say, “That won’t happen to us.”

So when cancers that seemingly appear or reappear for no apparent reason, there may be a tendency to blame the person and their attitude. It’s somehow comforting to us to think we wouldn’t succumb to cancer ourselves because our attitude is better.

“You almost burden the cancer person who’s diagnosed with it to protect us from being frightened,” he said. “But I find that often patients recognize that a positive attitude is so discrepant with the experience they’re having, that it’s a front that they feel a need to put on. It’s a way of managing the distress in the people around them.”

And Coyne said even doctors and other caregivers have used this to their advantage.

“I think that a hopeful cancer patient is a lot easier to manage than one who’s upset,” he said.

“Sometimes (oncologists) don’t want the burden to deal with distraught patients and negativity. I certainly know of situations where they’ll pass out antidepressants like candy. It won’t be in the way of a formal diagnosis of depression, but as a way of ending an encounter with a patient who is crying or upset.”

Bend resident Nina Behrens, 71, was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma in January and is currently undergoing treatment. While she says she’s had wonderful support from her family and friends, she admits she doesn’t always give everybody the real story.

“People don’t like to hear constant sick stories,” she said. “And so if anybody asks me how I’m doing, I say, ‘I’m doing really great,’ and try to keep a positive spin on it, and gradually get off the subject. Because I don’t want to talk about it, or it becomes, ‘Oh, here she comes again.’ That type of thing.”

Behrens said she does believe a positive attitude is helping her cope with the process, but cancer patients must decide for themselves how they will approach their situation.

“I think when people are given this diagnosis, it affects you in such a profound way,” she said.

“All of a sudden you think, ‘How am I going to live the rest of my life? Am I going to be like a curmudgeon or depressed, how am I going to do this? Is that the way to live? I don’t want to live like that.’”

A feeling of control A 2001 survey of U.S. and Canadian women who had survived ovarian cancer found that many attributed their diagnosis to stress and their outcome to a positive attitude. The 200 women surveyed had been in remission for an average of 7.2 years.

when the family member is not there, They’re more apt to admit, ‘I actually am having some pain, I’m having trouble tolerating this pain, but I didn’t want to burden my family with it.’”

Patients quickly learn that most people don’t want to hear the horror stories and feel uncomfortable.

“We do that in our lives anyway, and it’s just magnified in the situation of cancer,” West said. “When people ask you, ‘How are you doing?’, they’re not looking for, ‘I’m having marital problems and my sister just lost a baby.’ They don’t want hear that. They want to hear, ‘Oh yeah, things are fine. Let’s get margaritas later.’”

But while most people can deal with the social convention of ignoring the negative, for cancer patients, the expectation to be positive can have tremendous consequences.

“I see that particularly in this whole notion of a ‘fighter’ attitude,” West said. “There’s a huge difficulty for patients with stage IV breast cancer when they decide they don’t want to fight anymore.

A lot of them feel like they lose their whole sort of support system from other patients because other patients are so into this fight mentality.”

Instead, patients are pressured to adhere to the unspoken rule that they cannot be negative, that they must fight to the end, and cannot quit.

“Which is not necessarily exactly what’s going on,” West said.

“It’s a realistic idea of what you want to obtain from treatment

and sometimes the treatment is worse than the disease.”

Coyne agreed.

“It’s seen all the time in palliative care. In the very last weeks where there’s a real push from family members for aggressive treatment, to really put the patient through unnecessary pain and distress and destruction of the remaining quality of life,” he said.

“And often, ultimately the family members resent that they got caught up and feel guilty that they got caught up in this.”

Removing barriers Many ardent supporters of the positive attitude hypothesis maintain they don’t believe that willpower alone can stop cancer in its tracks or prevent recurrence, but that it can be a valuable adjunct to medical therapy. The right attitude, they claim, can maximize the odds that the medical treatment will work, removing impediments, not the least of which is patient adherence to treatment protocols. Patients who feel depressed or fatalistic about their condition might not see the need to meet all of their appointments, take all their medications or take other steps for which there is good evidence of a positive impact.

In one study, people who described themselves as optimists were less likely to have diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol or depression. They were less likely to smoke, to be sedentary or overweight.

Others contend there’s a continuum of attitudes that can help cancer patients cope. On one end, there’s a warrior approach to fighting cancer, a modern-day St. George battling the dragon, that’s taken root in the public psyche.

On the other, there’s a growing contingent of patients who won’t be told how to feel, who assert their right to be angry, sad, even irreverent about their condition.

Researchers maintain that for people who fit the warrior mentality, it’s a positive coping strategy that allows patients to have a feeling of control over their fate.

Some oncologists urge patients to visualize the battle between cancer cells and the immune system or their chemotherapy agents, or even illustrate the battle scenes on paper.

Sandy Henderson, 43, an event promoter in Bend, used visualization when she went through her chemotherapy in 2003.

“What I likened it to was the old Pac-Man game. I would sit there and watch them put the needles into my veins and the chemotherapy is super cold. You can really feel it going through your arms.

I just sat there visualizing PacMan, that Pac-Man was coming into my body, and chomping up the cancer and killing the cancer, and that’s how I did it every single time,” she recalled. “I would literally sit there, going ‘chomp, chomp, chomp, chomp, chomp.’

Some people thought I was crazy.

I don’t really care, because the thing is, it worked.”

Henderson describes herself as the type of person who likes to take control of her life and that while every cancer patient needs to find his or her own road, she wanted nothing to do with negativity.

“I think people respond to positive energy, if the sun is shining

and it’s a happy day, then you’re happy. If it’s gloomy, you’re more down,” she said. “If you have someone near who’s being negative about it, you choose not to engage with that person.”

Unintended consequences Still, many patients struggle with the warrior mentality, and despite going through the same treatment and experiencing the same successes as more natural fighters, they wind up feeling they are somehow losing the battle.

Nancy Stohrdahl, a freelance writer from Wisconsin who is blogging about her cancer at nancyspoint.com, cringes when she hears reports of celebrities or other cancer patients whose prognosis is linked to a positive attitude.

“People don’t know what else to say and they mean well by saying it, but I think it puts pressure on the cancer person because they feel guilty if they don’t maintain a positive attitude,” she said. “If they don’t survive, it’s like, ‘Well it must be their fault.’ If all it took was a positive attitude to survive cancer, everybody would be walking around with a smile.”

Katie Hennessy, a licensed clinical social worker at the OHSU Knight Cancer Center in Portland, counsels patients at all stages of cancer treatment and with varied approaches.

“Cancer treatment is very hard, and so in some ways, to have a little bit of spirit or feel the push — sometimes I’ve used that word — there’s a push that sometimes can be helpful in walking through the door in the morning here,” she said. “But there are clearly people who are kind of warriors around this, and then there are other people for whom that doesn’t fit.”

So when the people supporting a patient push for a positive attitude or a change in nutrition or whatever they think the magic bullet is going to be, it puts tremendous pressure on a patient already struggling with their treatment.

“Here this poor person is sick but they’re also getting all this pressure from the people they love to either put on a happy face, pull themselves up by their bootstraps or whatever it is, because they’re going to be sick if they don’t, and they’re going to feel like they’re failing,” she said.

But Hennessy thinks the tide may be turning.

“I think we are in a little bit of a shift that we haven’t named yet, about authenticity, or at least it feels that way to me,” she said.

“There’s been a lot of dominant messages about attitude and positive thinking, but I think it is receding a bit.”

Coyne advocates allowing patients to experience their cancer diagnosis and treatment however they want.

“Often there’s a whole range of emotions that patients go through, and often they rapidly shift back to forth,” he said. “Just allow them that, rather than hold them responsible for preserving a positive outlook or even a harshly realistic one. I think patients should be able to say all kinds of things.”
