Drawing too few, JROTC at Mountain View to end

By Scott Hammers The Bulletin

The Mountain View High School Junior ROTC unit is set to be eliminated next June, the Navy announced Monday.

Mountain View is one of 29 high schools around the country where Naval JROTC will be shutting down because of a failure to meet standards or minimum enrollment requirements.

Lt. Cmdr. Niels Farner, the Mountain View adviser, said the unit has struggled to keep its enrollment up since before he started in 2005. By congressional mandate, schools with more than 1,000 students — such as Mountain View — are required to enroll at least 100 students in their JROTC programs, while smaller schools are required to maintain an enrollment equal to 10 percent of the student body.

Farner said during his first year on the job, enrollment was at 104, but dropped into the mid-70s the following year when Bend-La Pine Schools reduced students’ opportunities to take elective classes by boosting core requirements.

A freshman typically has only one opening in his or her schedule per semester for an elective class, Farner said, forcing such a student to choose between the JROTC introductory naval science class and more exciting but less challenging offerings.

“If I were a kid looking down the list of electives looking at the things being offered, and I see naval science, that’s probably not really going to jump out at me as something really worth taking,” Farner said.

Two years after Farner took over the program, the school district cut back on cross-enrollment — the practice of letting students enrolled at one high school take classes offered at another — further cutting into the JROTC unit’s numbers. While the Mountain View unit once had more than 20 students from Summit and Bend High schools, Farner said that number was down to six this year, all older students who are able to provide their own transportation.

Online outdoor gear seller to open Bend store

By Tim Doran The Bulletin

Altrec, the online outdoor gear retailer based in Redmond, plans to announce today that it will open a brick-and-mortar store in the former Blockbuster site near Safeway on Bend’s west side.

CEO and founder Mike Morford said Altrec plans to open the store, which will be

called Greatoutdoors by altrec.com, in the fall, before the winter season. The store will be open seven days a week, he said, and the number of employees will vary by season.

Altrec sees the expansion into real-world retail as a way to serve customers in the region, some of whom sometimes show up at the Redmond warehouse looking to buy gear.

“(We wanted) the opportunity to reach our existing Bend customers and provide them with an even higher level of service,” Morford said Wednesday.

Altrec, a privately held company that Internet Retailer magazine ranked 408th this year on its Top 500 list of retail websites, raised more than $6 million in financing in 2010, according to reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Tribal leaders, government agencies and private partners are preparing for the changes that climate scientists anticipate for Washington’s Nisqually River.

New York Times News Service

NISQUALLY NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE, Wash. — For 10,000 years the Nisqually Indians have relied on chinook salmon for their very existence, but soon those roles are expected to reverse.

Based on current warming trends, climate scientists anticipate that in the next 100 years the Nisqually River will become shallower and much warmer. Annual snowpack will decline on average by half. The glacier that feeds the river, already shrunken considerably, will continue to recede.

Play the scene forward and picture a natural system run amok as retreating ice loosens rock that will clog the river, worsening flooding in winter, and a decline in snow and ice drastically diminishes the summer runoff that helps keep the river under a salmon-friendly 60 degrees.

To prepare for these and other potentially devastating changes, an unusual coalition of tribal government leaders, private partners and federal and local agencies are working to help the watershed and its inhabitants adapt. They are reserving land farther in from wetlands so that when the sea rises, the marsh will have room to move as well;

Matthew Ryan Williams New York Times News Service

they are promoting hundreds of rain gardens to absorb artificially warmed runoff from paved spaces and keep it away from the river; and they are installing logjams intended to cause the river to hollow out its own bottom and create cooler pools for fish.

Jeanette Dorner, the director of the salmon recovery program for the Nisqually Tribe Natural Resources Department, grew up wading along a creek that feeds the river, hunting freshwater mussels. Even though protecting the rivershed requires herculean feats of coordination among various authorities and has cost roughly

$35 million over the last decade, she said, “it is urgent we do not just walk away.”

Many scientists and policy analysts believe the best course of action is to do what conservationists have long tried to do — return ecosystems to their strongest natural health and then stay out of the way. This approach is known as resiliency.

But as humans come to be adversely affected by the stepped-up pace of ecological change, they also increasingly look to help Mother Nature out in more active ways.

Bus stops now meet accessibility standards

By Nick Grube The Bulletin

It took a federal lawsuit and nearly five years of work, but the city of Bend now has bus routes that are considered accessible under the Americans with Disabilities Act. That wasn’t the case when the city created Bend Area Transit in 2006. Several local residents with disabilities sued the city a few months after BAT operations began,demand- “It’s a ing that the wonderful agency fix the feeling of problem and bring the pub- accomplishlic transporta- ment and tion system into relief. ... compliance.

I have to tell you, everybody I describe the experience to thinks the same thing: ‘Who would have thought?’ ” When BAT started its fixed-route service, only a handful of its 170 or so bus stops met ADA standards.

For someone in a wheelchair or with other mobility constraints, such as using a walker, this meant much of the transit system was unusable.

In some places the sidewalks were uneven or nonexistent, and someone in a wheelchair would have been dropped off into bushes, grass, gravel or other precarious surfaces.

TITLE IX VIOLATIONS

Less equality, scrutiny at two-year colleges

In Texas, a new round of debate on evolution

By Katie Thomas

By Terrence Stutz

New York Times News Service

The Dallas Morning News

Los Angeles Southwest College has a new athletic field house and football stadium, but almost no female athletes.

Women make up more than two-thirds of students at this community college in the city’s South Central neighborhood, but less than a quarter of its athletes.

The college’s decision to suspend the track team this year left women who wanted to play a sport with a single option: basketball.

Henry Washington, the college’s athletic director and head football coach, acknowledges that his program is most likely violating federal law by failing to offer enough roster spots to women.

But he said many of the female students are also juggling jobs and child care, and do not have time to play sports. Then there is the question of money. “I just keep my fingers crossed that we can keep what we have,” he said.

Pensacola State College in Florida has suffered through its share of budget cuts, and athletic officials have long faced the thorny question of how much interest there is at a college that devotes an entire campus to health sciences programs, where students tend to be older, overwhelmingly female and, supposedly, less eager to play sports.

But there is no shortage of women playing sports at Pensacola. The college invests about $1 million a year in the athletics program, and coaches scour the state and beyond for talented female players. The women’s basketball team won the state championship this year.

Bill Hamilton, the Pensacola athletic director, said his success had not come without struggle.

But abiding by the law is a priority. “We don’t do things around here because it’s easy,” he said.

“We do things because it’s right.”

The situation at Los Angeles Southwest, without question, more closely represents the norm among community colleges around the country. Even as they play an increasingly vital role in American higher education — enrolling more than eight million students nationwide last fall, a 20 percent jump since the fall of 2007, just before the start of the recession — community colleges are routinely failing to provide enough athletic opportunities to women, as required under Title IX, the federal law banning sex discrimination in education. Many community colleges offer an array of options for men but just a single team for women. And dozens of colleges over the years had no women on their athletic rosters, according to federal education statistics.

No one disputes that community colleges face distinct challenges, with a lack of money paramount. But Pensacola, one of the rare exceptions among community colleges, offers evidence that the demands of the law can be met.

In many ways, Los Angeles Southwest’s struggles — and Pensacola’s success — echo the conversations that took place decades ago at elite four-year colleges and major public universities.

AUSTIN, Texas — Human evolution and Charles Darwin’s theories, hot topics for the Texas State Board of Education when they approved new science standards two years ago, are back this week for a new round of debate.

Board members are scheduled to review and adopt supplemental science materials that incorporate the new curriculum standards adopted in 2009, including those that deal with evolution and Darwin’s principles on the development of life on Earth.

Because the state couldn’t afford new science books for public schools, students will have to continue using books that are seven years old for at least a couple more years. But to give students access to the new science standards, the board will adopt a list of supplemental science materials to be delivered electronically to schools this fall.

The board will make its choices after determining which of the submitted science e-books cover the new curriculum. But board members will debate which comply and which don’t.

Member Mavis Knight, D-Dallas, said review of the science materials will inevitably bring the board to discuss evolution again. Two years ago, social conservatives on the board sought to require that high school students learn about flaws in natural selection, common ancestry and other Darwin principles.

“I don’t think that debate is ever settled,” said Knight, who was on the winning side of several close votes in 2009 that went against evolution critics.

New board Chairwoman Barbara Cargill, R-The Woodlands, a member of the social conservative bloc, gave a preview of the debate during a recent speech at a Texas Eagle Forum meeting in Conroe. She said the six social conservatives will have to find two additional votes to prevail on key issues like science books.

“There are six true, conservative Christians on the board.

So we now have to fight for two votes,” she told forum members.

Some interpreted that as a slap at the other five Republicans on the panel, who also consider themselves conservative. The remaining four board members are Democrats.

One of the biology e-books that is up for review includes sections on “intelligent design” — the proposition that development of living things is best explained by an intelligent cause rather than an undirected process such as Darwin’s principle of natural selection, commonly called “survival of the fittest.”

Opponents say it’s religiousbased creationism, though advocates reject that link.

The Discovery Institute, a conservative think tank based in Seattle that is a leading proponent of intelligent design, has filed with the State Board of Education its evaluation of 10 supplemental biology and evolution e-books up for consideration.

The institute concluded that nine of them fail to meet Texas standards on teaching evolution.

The track and football field at Southwest Community College in South Los Angeles. At community colleges across the country, some athletic programs are allegedly falling short of providing enough opportunities to women as required under Title IX. “People who say they can’t find students who are interested or they can’t recruit, it sounds very much like what I heard 30 years ago, 40 years ago in the 1970s,” said Carol Kashow, the athletic director at Hostos Community College in the Bronx. “That’s the reason for Title IX, so there can’t be an excuse to not give opportunities.”

But community colleges have rarely been scrutinized. That may change as an influx of recent high school graduates have entered community colleges, seeing them as an affordable alternative to four-year universities.

This shift in the student body — already majority female — could lead to heightened demands from students who could well expect and even legally demand the opportunity to participate in sports.

“While some of our states and regions have seen the handwriting on the wall, many are still sitting in the dark,” Karen Sykes, a former president of the National Junior College Athletic Association, warned officials at a meeting several years ago.

Nontraditional students Henry Washington has served as athletic director at Los Angeles Southwest College for 27 years, and each year, he said, women’s basketball faces the same challenge: the team starts out with a roster of 12 players only to dwindle to five or six by the end of the season.

“Sometimes they’re not motivated, they may have a child,” he said. “There are all kinds of obstacles that are getting in the way of trying to even keep teams.”

It is a common refrain among athletic directors at community colleges: Women, they say, do not sign up for sports. While the economic recession has expanded the pool of traditional-age students, men and women who attend community colleges do not fit the typical mold of studentathletes. They tend to be older, and almost half of all community college students work more

NYC offers up to $100M for engineering school

By Patrick McGeehan New York Times News Service

NEW YORK — Mayor Michael Bloomberg raised his offer Tuesday to universities interested in setting up a school of engineering and applied sciences in New York City: Along with practically free use of a swath of land, the city will contribute as much as $100 million.

Bloomberg publicly presented an invitation to universities to bid on the chance to create a campus, either on one of three cityowned properties or elsewhere in the city. Issuing the request for proposals is the latest step officials have taken to try to make New York more competitive with

Silicon Valley as a hub for technology-based businesses.

“During the 1980s and ’90s, Silicon Valley — not New York City — became the world’s capital of technology startups, and that is still true today,” Bloomberg said in a speech at a conference on the city’s future at the Grand Hyatt hotel in Midtown. “But if I am right, and if we succeed in this mission, it won’t be true forever.”

City officials say the school could prompt as much as $6 billion in economic activity by creating 30,000 temporary and permanent jobs and, more important, by fostering innovations that could become big businesses.

than 25 hours a week, according to federal education statistics.

But federal statistics show few differences between the men and women who attend these colleges: The men work, too, and tend not to be any younger.

And yet the men, despite similar hardships or responsibilities, still manage to play sports in significant numbers.

Those who lament the lack of athletic options for women at community colleges note that women are losing out on something that is more than some idealistic abstraction. A growing body of research has shown that participating in athletics can have a positive effect on health and self-esteem as well as academics and one’s professional career, benefits as valuable to community college students as to those at more affluent four-year colleges.

Sykes, the former junior college athletic association president, questioned whether some members were making a genuine effort. Some community colleges “were willing to make a halfhearted effort and then willing to accept the consequences,” she said.

Some argue that community colleges should do more to market their athletic programs to their demographic, either by rearranging practice schedules or by offering sports, such as bowling, golf or tennis, that might appeal to older students.

Community colleges indisputably have struggled in recent years as they deal with the dual challenges of increased enrollment and cuts by state legislatures. But critics note that the colleges’ problems predate the economic downturn.

“Before the downfall, everybody had lots of money and lots of students,” said Diane Milutinovich, who has filed several federal complaints against community colleges alleging violations of Title IX. “Why didn’t they do the right thing then? Now, when times are tough, it’s the women who are bearing the brunt.”

Tamra Carrell

Finding a balance In many ways, Pensacola fits the profile of a typical community college. More than 40 percent of its students receive federal student aid, most have jobs outside school, and many of the college’s female students are single parents, said Ed Meadows, the president of the college. And like other community colleges, Pensacola has struggled in the economic downturn. Its budget has been cut about 18 percent over the past three years because of decreases in state financing.

“It’s tough,” Hamilton, the athletic director, said, adding, “We’re losing some positions and tightening our belts.”

Still, Pensacola has found a way to preserve sports programs, and women at the moment make up some 56 percent of the college’s athletes.

The athletic budget of $1 million, for example, pays for men’s and women’s basketball teams as well as baseball, softball and women’s volleyball. Many athletes receive scholarships for tuition and books. Some are given housing and stipends for meals.

Hamilton’s coaches visit tournaments across the country, attend camps at four-year colleges and pore over scouting reports. Filling female rosters “isn’t something we do by luck, it’s by design,” Hamilton said.

Hamilton said colleges must provide opportunities to women if they hope to fulfill their mission to educate students through participation in sports. That is especially true at community colleges, he said.

“The kids down here, they are trying to crawl up on that first ledge of success in society’s eyes,” Hamilton said.

“The more people of either gender that you can get into athletics, I think you help society tremendously.”

T S Heat ‘dome’ makes much of U.S. feel like a sauna

By Tammy Webber The Associated Press

CHICAGO — If the extreme heat and humidity lingering over much of the nation feels like a steam bath, it’s because the same principles are at work in the atmosphere.

Vast amounts of warmth and moisture have become trapped under a huge “heat dome,” bringing recordbreaking temperatures and thick, topical air to scores of cities from the Plains to the Ohio Valley. Now the system is moving east to spread the misery to some of the country’s most densely populated areas through the weekend.

With temperatures hovering around 100, Jeff Grembocki and other construction workers prepared Wednesday to pour concrete for a walkway improvement project near downtown Kansas City.

Empty Gatorade bottles lay strewn across their job site.

Grembocki said the heat saps his energy so much that he falls asleep soon after getting home. He only rouses for a couple of hours to watch TV before going back to bed.

“The air conditioning, when it hits you, it’s all you can do to stay awake,” he said.

The heat dome forms when a high pressure system develops in the upper atmosphere, causing the air below it to sink and compress because there’s more weight on top.

That raises temperatures in the lower atmosphere, said Eli Jacks, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Silver Spring, Md. The dome of high pressure also pushes the jet stream and its drier, cooler air, farther north — it’s now well into Canada — while hot, humid air from the Gulf of Mexico circulates clockwise around the dome, traveling farther inland than normal.

Combined with generally clear skies and the sun’s higher summertime angle, “it gets really hot,” Jacks said.

The cruel result: eye-popping heat index readings measuring temperature combined with humidity.

DEBT TALKS

Obama open to short-term deal

By Paul Kane and Lori Montgomery The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — The contentious budget talks that have dominated Washington for months intensified Wednesday, prompting President Barack Obama to say he would accept a short-term hike in the debt ceiling if it gave lawmakers time to finalize a comprehensive deal.

Obama had pledged to veto any short-term measure, but White House spokesman Jay Carney said Wednesday that the president could accept an extension of “a few days” if it allowed a long-term deficit-reduction and

New York Times News Service NEW YORK — Leiby Kletzky, the 8-year-old boy who was killed last week after being kidnapped as he walked home alone from day camp, was drugged with painkillers and muscle relaxants before he was smothered to death, the city medical examiner’s office announced Wednesday.

A statement by Dr. Charles Hirsch, the chief medical examiner, said the cause of death was not just suffocation but also “intoxication by the combined effects of cyclobenzaprine (muscle relaxant), quetiapine (antipsychotic), hydrocodone (pain medication), and acetaminophen (Tylenol).”

The findings added another grim twist to a case that has transfixed New York, devastated the Orthodox Jewish community of Borough Park, Brooklyn, and prompted parents to wonder about how lenient they should be in letting their children walk the streets alone.

gain to slice $4 trillion out of the federal budget over the next decade was back on the table.

“There are multiple trains heading towards the station, and we have to decide,” Carney said before Obama met with the two GOP leaders. “We need to be sure that that fail-safe option is there even as we pursue, aggressively, the possibility of doing something bigger.”

Republican leaders went on record 10 days ago against the Obama proposal, saying that as long as the deal included higher tax revenue, it could not pass the House. And they maintained that stance after Wednesday’s

By Martiga Lohn The Associated Press

ST. PAUL, Minn. — Minnesota’s state government shutdown ended Wednesday after 20 days, millions in lost revenue and frustration on the part of residents and politicians.

The stoppage made the state a national example of political dysfunction, a small-scale mirror of the dispute in Washington over whether to raise the debt ceiling. But while federal lawmakers appeared close to a deal to slash spending, Minnesota’s budget was widely panned for just putting the problems off until later.

Democratic Gov. Mark Dayton pushed for months to raise taxes on the state’s richest residents to provide more money for social services, while Republicans adopted a “live within our means” motto. In the end, the state will spend more by delaying aid to schools and borrowing against future payments from a legal settlement with tobacco companies.

In contrast, the proposal being floated Wednesday in Washington would cut entitlement programs while raising some taxes.

Jim Mone / The Associated Press

Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton is handed one of the bills as he signs the state budget bill which ends the government shutdown, on Wednesday.

In both cases, members of both parties have bitter pills to swallow, but in Minnesota, there’s not even the satisfaction of having finally solved the problem.

Dayton said the budget was the best deal he could get given what he called Republican stubbornness.

“I signed it because otherwise Minnesota wouldn’t go back to work,” he said at a Capitol bill signing ceremony.

Republicans were equally unhappy, having voted to spend more than they wanted. They also gave up on proposals to ban funding for stem cell research

Ahead of transfer, bike bomb shakes Afghan city

By Alissa J. Rubin and Jack Healy KABUL, Afghanistan — The government of Afghanistan officially took control of security in the capital of Helmand Province on Wednesday as part of a sweeping effort to begin to disentangle Western forces from the country.

Highlighting the risk to Afghan civilians as the transition got under way, however, insurgents struck in one of the provincial capitals that is slated to be handed over later this week.

The attack by a suicide bomber on a bicycle was in the northern city of Mazar-i-Sharif, which had been considered largely safe until

this spring, when a mob attacked the United Nations compound there, killing seven employees.

The attack Wednesday killed four people and wounded 12.

Both the government and its Western allies have made passing control of security to Afghans a centerpiece of the strategy here.

For the government, it is a way to assert its sovereignty and prove to its citizens that it is not reliant on foreign forces. For Western countries, the transition will allow them to begin drawing down troops.

When President Hamid Karzai announced the first seven places — four cities and most of three provinces — to make the transi-

tion, he made it clear that security and the civilian transition would go hand in hand. Over the last year, he has increasingly emphasized the message of national sovereignty.

“The people of Afghanistan don’t want the foreigners to be in charge of security anymore,” he told an audience at the Afghan military academy in Kabul in March. “Transition means taking responsibility for both security and development.”

However, these first steps, which are being celebrated with ceremonies in each of the places where Afghans take over, test very little about the readiness of the country’s forces.

Psychiatrist arraigned in Fort Hood killings

By Manny Fernandez New York Times News Service

FORT HOOD, Texas — Wearing a camouflage Army uniform and sitting upright in a wheelchair, the military psychiatrist accused of killing 13 people in a shooting rampage here appeared in court Wednesday at his arraignment, without the civilian lawyer who had been his lead defense attorney.

The Army psychiatrist, Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, informed the judge shortly before the arraignment that he had released his civilian lawyer and would be

In a brief interview after the White House meeting, Cantor said he remained committed to “not raising taxes” but did not rule out a larger plan. “Again, there are a lot of things that may or may not be possible, but we’re just trying to drive toward a result right now,” he said.

The mood has changed in the past two days after the bipartisan “Gang of Six” senators unveiled a plan to shave at least $3.7 trillion off the deficit. Despite the fact that the plan included new tax revenue by closing loopholes, it received a relatively warm reception in some Republican quarters.

“We did compromise with the governor in giving him more money, more money than a lot of Republicans wanted to spend, more money than I wanted to spend,” House Majority Leader Matt Dean said on Minnesota Public Radio.

The gears of government have started to turn again, with 22,000 laid-off state employees told to report to work Thursday to restart everything from lottery ticket sales to state historic sites.

The shutdown closed state parks and two state-regulated racetracks, suspended driver’s license exams and some services to the vulnerable and even threatened to prevent some bars from purchasing alcohol. Court rulings kept payments to schools, local governments and subsidized health care programs going, and as the shutdown ground on, a judge gave relief to some programs — including child care assistance — by ruling they were essential.

Pakistani plot did not influence actions, lawmakers say New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — Last summer, half a dozen lawmakers met on Capitol Hill with a group of Pakistani-Americans and foreign visitors to discuss long-stalled efforts to negotiate peace in Kashmir, the border region claimed by both Pakistan and India.

The congressmen, including Rep. Joe Pitts, R-Pa.; Rep. Dan Burton, R-Ind.; and Rep. Dennis J. Kucinich, D-Ohio, vowed to work with the group, the Kashmiri American Council, in efforts to pressure the United States and both sides to reach a settlement.

Those lawmakers and other members of Congress, over time, took steps sought by the council, introducing resolutions on the House floor, taking trips to the region and speaking up at hearings or news conferences to pressure the White House to take a

PHONE HACKING SCANDAL

Cameron tries to shore up support

By John F. Burns and Alan Cowell New York Times News Service

LONDON — It was Prime Minister David Cameron’s turn to battle for his reputation, and potentially even his job, in the House of Commons on Wednesday in an appearance to address the phone hacking scandal that has convulsed Britain.

And when the daylong political street fighting with the opposition Labour Party was done, he appeared to have at least steadied support within his own party and, perhaps as important, within the ranks of the Liberal Democrats, his nervous partners in the coalition government.

The confrontation in the House of Commons — a day after appearances by Rupert and James Murdoch, whose now-defunct News of the World has been at the heart of the scandal — capped a difficult week in which the politically agile prime minister appeared to lose his normally assured demeanor, allowing Labour to get ahead of him in putting an end to the Murdochs’ bid for Britain’s top satellite television company.

Cameron flew back from a shortened trade trip to Africa on Tuesday and worked late into the night preparing for the showdown over revelations about the tabloid that have exposed cozy relations among the press, politicians and the police, and which crystallized into the most serious crisis of credibility and confidence of his 15 months in office.

As the eight-hour Commons debate ended, the 44-year-old prime minister appeared to have done enough to quiet the worst anxieties in his Conservative Party, whose most powerful backbench group gave him a desk-banging thumbs up. Several Liberal Democrats, meanwhile, emerged from the session to say that the emphasis should be on reforms to rid Britain of the excesses of its tabloids, and not on efforts to topple Cameron,

Accessibility Continued from A1 And even if there was a place to set a wheelchair lift down on a sidewalk, many of those locations didn’t have curb ramps.

This meant that someone in a wheelchair wouldn’t have been able to travel off the sidewalk and would have been stranded.

According to the initial lawsuit, which was filed in U.S. District Court in December 2006, there were instances where BAT drivers would deploy wheelchair lifts in intersections, driveways and on the street just to let someone with a disability leave the bus.

Since then — and as part of the settlement with Disability Rights Oregon — the city has constructed large, flat landing pads at more than 180 bus stops, and built curb ramps at each location to allow people with disabilities to travel from block to block once they’re dropped off. City officials didn’t have figures for how much this

more aggressive role.

What they did not know, though, is that the Capitol Hill gathering, and others they participated in over the years, had been financed secretly by Pakistan’s military — including its powerful spy agency, the Directorate for Inter-Services Intelligence, or ISI. The lawmakers have been caught up in what the Justice Department now says is a scheme over two decades to influence Congress and the White House, with the goal of forcing India to relinquish control of parts of Kashmir.

The secret funding of the Kashmiri American Council resulted in criminal charges unsealed this week against Ghulam Nabi Fai, the executive director of the group. According to court documents, he met dozens of times with Washington lawmakers and set up annual conferences on Capitol Hill at the request of

the spy agency — even as a network of straw political donors, reimbursed by the Pakistan military, made as much as $100,000 a year in campaign contributions.

Foreign governments are not permitted to make donations to U.S. political candidates.

The council’s strategy has played out, at least in part, as hoped. The White House — through several administrations, including that of President Barack Obama — has largely maintained a stand that Pakistan and India should resolve the dispute themselves. But the lawmakers helped turn up the heat on all of the players, just as ISI had sought.

Some members of Congress, in interviews Wednesday, said they did not know they were part of a foreign intelligence plot and asserted that any actions they took or statements they made were based on their own beliefs about

the need for a peaceful resolution of the conflict in Kashmir.

“The whole world ought to be concerned about the potential for war between India and Pakistan,” Kucinich said. But some added that they were angry now to learn about the scheme.

“I don’t like to be used by anybody,” Pitts said. “It is very upsetting.”

The campaign, which cost the Pakistani government at least $4 million since the mid-1990s, included matters as simple as getting lawmakers to raise questions about Kashmir during hearings, such as a July 2009 House committee appearance by Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Fai, at the direction of his handler at the Pakistani ministry of defense, had pressed “numerous members of Congress” to quiz her on the topic, according to a Justice Department affidavit.

River

Amy Snover, a director of the Climate Impacts Group at the University of Washington, said that computer modeling showed that as early as 2020 there would be “significant” increases in rain in the Nisqually Basin in November and December. Sixty years beyond that there would 50 percent less snowpack at the end of winter, according to the averageclimate projection. Warmer air and less snowmelt would mean a much warmer river and depleted soil moisture in summer, which would stress forest vegetation.

Ducks Unlimited, a conservation group founded by hunters, predicts that the entire low-lying wetlands at the river’s mouth, a prime fish nursery, will be inundated by the sea in the next 50 years, meaning that the species the council was working to save would be imperiled all over again.

Christopher Ellings, a salmon research biologist with the Nisqually Indian Tribe, said any of the changes — on its own — could significantly alter the local food web. He identified the chinook, a keystone species that is a mainstay food for many predators, as a prime example. “A warmer river would favor fishes that don’t have a long freshwater rearing,” he said.

Meaning, not the chinook, which spend their early lives at the edge of the salt water, bulking up to travel the sound.

nearly two dozen demonstration gardens, including one in the front yard of the town’s mayor, Ray Harper. The group hopes to spawn 12,000 gardens across the Puget Sound area, including 700 across the Nisqually, which would treat about 9.3 million gallons per year, according to David Burger, Stewardship’s executive director.

Eatonville also agreed to accept a new kind of river breakwater promoted by the council.

Boxes made of logs, roughly 20 by 20 feet, are placed deep into the sides of the riverbed. Angled into the water, each box acts as a natural logjam might, catching debris and causing the river to swirl in on itself and dig deep cool pools inviting to chinook.

Harper said the town signed on to the council’s approach after the council and its partners paid nearly a million dollars for property to place the logjams. With those funds, he said, “we are going to be able to put a hiking trail system along the river, which is also a draw.”

Continued from A1 In North Carolina, the United States Fish and Wildlife Service has teamed up with The Nature Conservancy to buy parcels just behind Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge to allow the swamp to roll inland as the sea rises from glacial melt and to help black bears and red foxes migrate to inland refuges. In Montana the Wildlife Conservation Society is working with land trusts and others to secure corridors just outside Glacier National Park for wide-ranging cold-sensitive species like wolverines.

Such projects are on the rise, in part, because an executive order signed in 2009 by President Barack Obama led to a mandate that federal agencies integrate adaptation to climate change into all of their planning. But they often remain, like Nisqually, complex collaborations spurred more by imminent local ecological catastrophes.

Warm water fish The Nisqually begins as a fast chute off Mount Rainier, rushes through shattered rock carved from the glacier above and then plunges through thick pine forests for 78 miles until it broadens into a rich estuary connecting with Puget Sound.

It remains a relatively healthy watershed because in 1989 — long before “global” and “warming” were inextricably linked — the Washington State Legislature, in the face of local protests and a court battle over Indian fishing rights, created the Nisqually River Council, the first watershed-wide protection council west of the Mississippi.

The council provided a framework for parties along the river to discuss their needs and goals.

Financing came through many sources: via lawsuits brought to protect native endangered species like the chinook and the spotted owl, state and federal grants, the Park Service in Mount Rainier, the Fish and Wildlife Service and the Nisqually Tribe, which has prospered since the legalization of gaming on Indian lands.

For its first 20 years the council concentrated on undoing manmade damage, pursuing efforts like persuading the operator of the hydroelectric dam on the river to add salmon gates. Last year, as the council was updating its management plan, it began looking at the river “through the lens of climate change,” said David Troutt, its chairman. Suddenly restoration was not going to be enough.

cost, but on average a bus pad can built for around $1,200, and an ADA-compliant curb ramp can cost from $2,500 to $5,500.

“We’ve been at it for a long time and it’s been a very interesting journey,” Palmer said. “I’m impressed now. It goes to show you how things can really get done if everybody works together.”

Palmer’s not the only one who’s surprised the city was able to complete all the work before the deadline. Carol Fulkerson, the lead plaintiff in the Disability Rights Oregon case and a staunch ADA advocate, said she too is impressed, and believes the city seems to have done an about-face.

“It’s a new day,” Fulkerson said.

“When the whole process began, I was concerned we wouldn’t get to this point because of the attitudes and the pushback.”

The city has long struggled with ADA compliance, and has a record of missteps and misfires when it comes to obeying the law.

Bend’s ADA issues were first illuminated in 2001, when four

Eatonville evolves There are still shuttered businesses in Eatonville, Wash., along North Mashel Avenue, lingering signs of the decline of the timber industry. But there are also signs of new life as the town transitions to an ecofriendly bedroom community. Eatonville is important because it sits between the Nisqually’s main tributaries, the Ohop and the Mashel, and had been contributing to their warming.

Water that falls on Eatonville’s roads and parking lots is directed through storm drains into Ohop Creek. By contrast, water falling on unpaved spaces seeps into the ground, raising the moisture level in the soil and eventually feeding into the Mashel River, a shallower tributary that is in greater danger of overheating.

While Eatonville looks into redesigning its drainage system, the council has teamed the town up with Stewardship Partners, a nonprofit group that is promoting rain gardens specially designed for the end of driveways and other paved spaces to intercept runoff and sink it into the ground.

Stewardship has financed

residents lodged a complaint with the U.S. Department of Justice. After an investigation, the Department of Justice gave the city until 2014 to bring its buildings, sidewalks and curb ramps up to ADA standards.

Though city officials say they’re committed to completing this task, in 2009 they tried to scale back the terms of the Department of Justice settlement by asking to repair only a fraction of the thousands of noncompliant curb ramps in the city.

This request, which was denied by the Department of Justice, enraged accessibility rights advocates. And they point to it as an example of how Bend wasn’t taking their concerns seriously.

Since then, Bend has tried to take on the role of an ADA leader. Last year, during the 20th anniversary of the ADA, there was a party at City Hall to mark the occasion.

But many accessibility advocates didn’t show. They expressed skepticism at the city’s

Lawmakers in Washington are racing to reach a deal to save the country from defaulting on its debt, but on Wall Street, financial players like Deborah Cunningham, chief investment officer for Taxable Money Markets at Federated Investors, are devising plans in case the clock runs out.

Wall Street Continued from A1 In addition, mutual funds — which own billions of dollars in Treasuries — are working on presentations to persuade their boards that they can hold the bonds even if the government debt is downgraded. And hedge funds are stockpiling cash so they can buy up U.S. debt if other investors flee.

The rating agencies, which control the fateful decision of whether the nation deserves to have its credit standing downgraded, are surveying other entities that would be affected by a U.S. default and issuing warnings that a U.S. downgrade could result in several other ratings cuts. States that might be downgraded, in turn, are trying to reassure the market that they could still pay their bills on time.

All these contingency plans hinge on the pivotal date of Aug. 2, when the Obama administration has said it will no longer be able to finance government obligations without raising the $14.3 trillion cap on government borrowing. If lawmakers do not act before then, it will be difficult for the Treasury to meet coming interest payments as well as obligations

to government employees, vendors and programs like Social Security and Medicare.

Even though many on Wall Street believe that a default remains unlikely, the financial markets are starting to become agitated. Volatility in stocks has soared, and some investors say stock prices are falling because a U.S. default could severely raise companies’ costs of doing business.

In the Treasury market, investors are starting to sell, fearing that the government will not make good on some interest payments that will be due next month. And complex financial instruments that will pay out if the U.S. defaults have become twice as expensive to buy as they were at the start of the year.

Analysts say the signs of panic are small for now.

“The metaphor is a pile of sand,” said Mark Zandi, the chief economist at Moody’s Analytics. “You keep putting one piece of sand on the pile, nothing happens, and then, all of the sudden it just caves.”

Several traders and bankers, including Zandi, said the imminence of a possible default was already damaging the United States’ standing as the most creditworthy country in the world.

The watershed ahead The most crucial component to resiliency may be the most difficult — and expensive: preserving what are expected to be the crucial ecosystems of the future.

For 100 years, an earthen manmade dike kept the tidal salt water away from the marshlands near the river to create agricultural lands. Then in 2009, the refuge, working with Ducks Unlimited and other partners, took it down, and the area reconnected with the salt water in the largest estuary restoration project in the Pacific Northwest. The project was controversial, in part, because many park regulars had gotten used to the altered landscape.

The park superintendent, Jean Takekawa, kept the plan on course because wetlands and tidal flats, where fresh and salt water commingle, have been largely eliminated along Puget Sound despite being critical breeding areas for fish and wildlife.

At the same time, Takekawa was also working with partners to double the park’s acreage away from the sound. The land she won federal authority to preserve — and eventually buy if owners are willing — is mostly farmland on the other side of Interstate 5. If seas keep rising, however, it has the potential to be wetlands in the next century.

“The restoration project was an important step for the near term, but the refuge expansion creates potential for the longterm future,” Takekawa said.

gesture, saying it would take tangible improvements to accessibility to show that changes were on the way.

Bend Accessibility Manager Susan Duncan said she understood that apprehension, and acknowledged that everything hasn’t gone as smoothly as it could have over the years.

But she also said she’s “thrilled” about the fulfillment of the Disability Rights Oregon settlement, and it should be looked at as a milestone in Bend’s attempts to become fully ADA-compliant.

Even so, she acknowledged the city’s bus routes might not be where they are today without the prodding of Disability Rights Oregon and other advocates.

“We absolutely would not have the accessible system we have today without this settlement,” Duncan said. “I think we all know this.”

ROTC Continued from A1 Although the Mountain View unit has had above-average year-to-year retention of students, Farner said its inability to capture incoming freshmen has hurt enrollment.

Farner said he plans to ask the school board to consider replacing the JROTC unit with a Navy National Defense Cadet Corps program for the 2012-13 school year.

The Cadet Corps program is similar to JROTC, but requires one instructor rather than two, Farner said, presenting a potential cost savings to the school district.

With JROTC, the school district covers about two-thirds of the cost of employing Farner and his assistant, Master Chief J.W. Terry, but Terry is planning to retire after the

upcoming school year.

Farner said he will make his initial proposal to the school district in August, and will spend the next school year trying to make his case by demonstrating the value of the JROTC program to students and the community.

“We’ll keep doing all the stuff we do, the activities, the events, the community service, the competitions in our league,” Farner said. “We’ll be really trying to put our best foot forward for the community and the school district so that they may say, ‘Hey, we’ll try this other program.’ ” Scott Hammers can be reached at 541-383-0387 or at shammers@bendbulletin.com.

Challenges to Romney’s play-it-safe style lurk

Altrec Continued from A1 The financing provides Altrec with the financial health to grow, Morford said, but he added that the key reason for opening the store is the chance to get to know the company’s Bend customers.

“We are in a very healthy financial condition,” he said.

“We’re growing pretty aggressively, and we’re poised to grow at a pretty good clip over the next three to five years.”

Founded in 1998 in Kirkland, Wash., Altrec sells climbing, cycling and other outdoor gear made by Black Diamond, Giro and others. It lists 426 brands on its Internet retail site.

A sister site, greatoutdoors .com, offers travel adventure stories, photos and videos — and links to the retail site if the content inspires readers to want to buy.

In 2006, the company moved to Redmond. The headquarters and warehouse are located at 725 S.W. Umatilla Ave., just west of Redmond Airport. It employs more than 100 people permanently and expects to add an additional 100 temporary workers during the peak retail season later in the year.

The Bend store will be able to take advantage of the thousands of products available in the company’s Redmond warehouse, Morford said.

“Frankly, we have more inventory in Redmond than most people realize,” he said.

“We are in a very healthy financial condition,” says Altrec CEO and founder Mike Morford, shown at the company’s warehouse in Redmond in 2007. “We’re growing pretty aggressively, and we’re poised to grow at a pretty good clip over the next three to five years.” said, employees will be able to fill a customer’s order in a day from the Redmond inventory.

Customers can either have the items delivered or pick them up at the store.

With the online sales operation and its owners located in Bend, the company will be able to stock the store with items specifically geared to the Bend market, Morford said.

Altrec has hired veteran outdoor retailer Al Quinn to manage

the Bend store. Quinn, an early investor in Altrec, is a former owner of Sturtevant’s, based in Bellevue, Wash., and Signal Sports, a defunct outdoor store in Portland.

Earlier this year, Altrec launched an online outlet store, and in May it rented out the Bend Armory to hold its first sale of returned merchandise, with prices marked down 50 to 80 percent, Morford said.

Customers came up and

thanked him for holding the sale.

The response shocked him, he said, and affirmed the decision to open a regular store, which will sell first-line gear, not seconds or markdowns.

“When we had the chance to interact with our local customers here in Bend,” he said, “we were warmly received.”

Lack of coordination hampers Libya’s rebels

By C.J. Chivers New York Times News Service

KIKLA, Libya — Ahmad Harari, a Libyan rebel fighting to overthrow Moammar Gadhafi, recounted how he was almost killed last week.

He was part of a small group of fighters assigned to defend a frontline position in Qawalish, a village in Libya’s arid western highlands.

Then Gadhafi’s military attacked, rushing forward in pickup trucks.

Harari said he had only 18 cartridges for his rifle, roughly

A N A LY S I S

the same amount of ammunition carried by everyone in his group.

Within minutes, he ran out.

“Every man lost all of his bullets and tried to escape,” he said.

A friend was captured, killed and mutilated, he said, but the others managed to get away.

While the Libyan rebels have carved out an enclave in the west, the dearth of ammunition in Harari’s fighting group points to one of the continuing drains on their military strength — an absence of coordination, even on

matters as basic as making sure that ample ammunition is provided to the front-line fighters.

As Libya’s uprising-turned-war enters its sixth month, the antiGadhafi rebels in the mountains have assembled into small bands of local fighters. These groups — often named for the towns the fighters come from — have demonstrated both an eagerness to fight and a willingness to work with almost anyone who can help them reach their goal of ousting the Gadhafi family from power.

But coordination among them, as well as logistical support from their higher commands and foreign supporters, has not developed. In eastern Libya, the rebel authorities talk of making a national army; here in the west, the state of official disorganization makes the prospects for such a force unlikely in the near term.

Interviews with dozens of rebels present a portrait of a guerrilla force that acts less like a coherent structure than a network of pickup fighting clubs.

B U S I N E SS IN BRIEF Hygienist offering specialty services A traveling dental hygienist from Springfield is providing another option for homebound residents and those who live in residential care and other facilities in south Deschutes County, where she also has a second home. Lilli Kemp, who holds a limited access permit as part of her state license, travels to the La Pine area one weekend a month and will treat patients in the area during those visits.

A limited access permit allows hygienists to provide services without the supervision of a dentist, according to the Oregon Board of Dentistry.

The permit allows the hygienist to treat those who cannot get treatment due to age, disability or infirmity, those who live in nursing homes, adult foster homes and other residential facilities and other groups.

For more information, call Kemp at 541-746-4008.

Payments to begin in Countrywide settlement More than 450,000 overpenalized mortgage holders to share $108M

By Gretchen Morgenson New York Times News Service

More than 450,000 borrowers who were charged excessive fees by Countrywide Home Loans when they fell behind on their mortgages will finally begin receiving the $108 million the company agreed to pay in a settlement struck with the Federal Trade Commission in June 2010, the agency said Wednesday. The number of consumers recovering money in the settlement is the biggest in FTC history and wound up being double what the commission had estimated.

“It is astonishing that one single company could be responsible for overcharging more than 450,000 homeowners, which is more than 1 percent of all the mortgages in the United States,” Jon Leibowitz, chairman of the trade commission, said in an interview. Countrywide’s “was a business model based on deceit and corruption and the harm they caused to American consumers is absolutely massive and extraordinary.”

The excessive fees and improper charges were levied on borrowers whose loans were serviced

by Countrywide. Most of those receiving money under the settlement — almost 350,000 customers — were routinely charged excessive amounts by Countrywide for default-related services.

Zillow soars in stock market debut NEW YORK — Investors set aside housing market doldrums and rushed to grab shares of real estate website Zillow on Wednesday, valuing the company at as much as $1.6 billion.

Zillow Inc., which has never made a profit, is yet another beneficiary of strong investor demand for the latest crop of Internet stocks. Many of the recent market debutantes provide social networking, online games or search.

Zillow’s shares tripled in their trading debut on the Nasdaq stock market. Zillow had set a price of $20 for its stock late Tuesday. The shares rose as high as $60 before settling back to $38.80 in midday trading, valuing the Seattle-based company at about $1 billion.

irector Jerry Smith, owner of award-winning PineRidge Film and TV, and cameraman Stan Murphy began filming Wednesday for the Central Oregon segment of the PBS reality television series “Getting Away Together.” Wednesday’s filming included a rafting trip led by the staff of Bend-based Sun Country Raft Tours down the Deschutes River north of Bend. Filming is scheduled to continue through Saturday, at locations throughout the area, including a campfire at The Lake House at Caldera Springs; golfing at Cross Water Golf Course near Sunriver; the raptor presentation and pioneer village at the High Desert Museum; Powell’s Sweet Shoppe and other sites in downtown Bend; stand-up paddleboarding in the Deschutes River near the Old Mill District; and a fly-fishing segment featuring the Hook Fly Shop in Sunriver.

Central Oregon is one of 13 locations featured in the show, which focuses on real people enjoying group or family vacations and staying together in vacation rental homes.

Alana Audette, president and CEO of the Central Oregon Visitors Association, which is a local sponsor of the PBS series, said Central Oregon tourism marketing has traditionally focused on the Pacific Northwest and Northern California markets. But she expects the series to draw national attention to the region as a vacation destination. Tourism is one of the region’s biggest industries, generating $1.2 billion in total direct travel spending in Crook, Deschutes and Jefferson counties and employing 6,200 people in 2010, according to estimates Dean Runyan Associates prepared for Travel Oregon.

Startup checks to see if job seekers have clean social media backgrounds Though the information gathered is publicly available online, privacy advocates are concerned

By Shari Roan Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — Tobacco company rep David Howard waxes enthusiastic when he talks about a brand new product his employer, R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Co., has developed: a pellet of finely cured tobacco, binders and flavoring that dissolves in the mouth in 10 minutes.

Under test market in two U.S. cities — Denver and Charlotte, N.C. — Camel Orbs will join two dissolvable tobacco lozenges already on the market if it graduates to broader distribution. And Howard is optimistic it will.

“These products provide smokers with an option to enjoy the pleasure of nicotine without bothering others,” Howard said. “No secondhand smoke. No spitting. No cigarette butt.”

Dissolvable tobacco consists of small pieces of compressed, finely ground tobacco powder, binders and flavorings that are shaped into pellets, sticks or strips. When placed in the mouth, they dissolve within minutes, providing a nicotine hit.

The tobacco industry says that the products contain far fewer cancer-causing chemicals and are a “harm reduction” strategy that, like electronic cigarettes, might help people turn to less risky tobacco habits or eventually quit smoking.

Ticket sellers waging battle over scalping

By Jennifer Preston New York Times News Service

Companies have long used criminal background checks, credit reports and even searches on Google and LinkedIn to probe the previous lives of prospective employees. Now, some companies are requiring job candidates to also pass a social media background check.

A year-old startup, Social Intelligence, scrapes the Internet for everything prospective employees may have said or done online in the past seven years. Then it assembles a dossier with examples of professional honors and charitable work, along with negative information that meets specific criteria: online evidence of racist remarks; references to drugs; sexually explicit photos, text messages or videos; flagrant displays of weapons or bombs and clearly identifiable violent activity.

“We are not detectives,” said Max Drucker, chief executive of the company, which is based in Santa Barbara, Calif. “All we assemble is what is pub-

The Federal Trade Commission, after initially raising concerns last fall about Social Intelligence’s business, determined the company is in compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, but the service still alarms privacy advocates who say that it invites employers to look at in-

And what relevant unflattering information has led to job offers being withdrawn or not made? Drucker said that one prospective employee was found using Craigslist to look for OxyContin.

It’s the summer concert season and, as usual, many fans are frustrated that rampant ticket scalping online has made seeing their favorite performer almost as much a frustration as a thrill. But now a new group says it wants to help.

This week a new nonprofit group, the Fans First Coalition, announced itself with a mission of protecting ordinary consumers from predatory ticket scalpers. The group appeared to have broad support from the industry, including prominent artists like R.E.M., the Dixie Chicks, Maroon 5 and Jennifer Hudson.

What fans might not know is that the coalition is financed by Live Nation Entertainment, the parent company of Ticketmaster, and that it has grown out of a lobbying fight between Live Nation and StubHub, the biggest legal online ticket reseller, over control of the multibillion-dollar secondary ticketing market.

SEC rejects Despite cancer risk, embalmers settlement say only formaldehyde will do proposal in ‘clawback’ lawsuit

By Andrew Martin

New York Times News Service

By David S. Hilzenrath The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — The Securities and Exchange Commission has rejected a proposal by its own enforcement staff to settle a landmark case in which the agency is trying to force a former corporate chief executive to give up millions of dollars in bonuses and stock profits he received while the company was cooking its books.

The plan to settle for significantly less money than the agency originally sought posed a test question: Was the staff letting the former executive off the hook too easily? Or was the agency being overzealous when it brought the case in the first place?

Both sentiments combined to torpedo the deal when the commissioners weighed the proposal last week, according to a source close to the matter.

The case involves Maynard Jenkins, former chief executive of CSK Auto, an Arizonabased auto-parts retailer that had to correct years of financial statements.

In 2009, the agency sued Jenkins, saying he should repay the auto parts retailer more than $4 million that he reaped while the company was “engaged in a pervasive accounting fraud.”

Jenkins, however, was not personally charged with fraud.

It was the first time the SEC had filed a so-called clawback suit to wrest money from an executive who was not accused of complicity in accounting fraud.

The SEC was using the watershed Sarbanes-Oxley law enacted in 2002 in response to accounting scandals at companies such as Enron and WorldCom. The law calls for chief executives and chief financial officers to forfeit stock profits or bonuses they receive while their company is misleading the public about its financial performance.

Settlement Continued from B1 To profit from property inspections, title searches and maintenance on homes going through foreclosure, Countrywide set up subsidiaries to do the work and marked up the cost of the services by more than 100 percent.

The company’s strategy was designed to increase profits from default-related services during bad economic times, the trade commission said. Some troubled borrowers were charged $300

by Countrywide to mow their

Tickets Continued from B1 Muddying the water further, there is another group with a confusingly similar name, the Fan Freedom Project, which also claims to represent the interests of consumers. But it is largely financed

by StubHub, a division of eBay. The organizations, which were introduced with the help of Washington public relations firms, are of a sort typically referred to as astroturf groups. They are unusual for the entertainment industry but, to political watchdogs, the idea of powerful interests creating apparently populist nonprofits is all too familiar.

“This is a classic,” said Ellen Miller, executive director of the Sunlight Foundation, which monitors lobbying, “where you find many so-called grass-roots organizations financed by interested industries to fight battles.

The campaigns present them as ground-up activities, but they are really nothing more than fronts for particular interests.”

For both sides of the issue, appealing to ordinary fans could

With the government declaring formaldehyde a carcinogen, these might be boom times for alternative embalming fluids — if it weren’t for the so-called everlasting effect every funeral director stakes his reputation on.

“Formaldehyde is the perfect product for fixation and short-term preservation,” said Debbie Dodge, the president of the Dodge Co. in Cambridge, Mass., which markets embalming fluids to funeral homes. “Formaldehyde will firm up the body tissue more than any of the nonformaldehyde products out there.”

The formaldehyde industry fought the government’s designation for years, arguing that the science was fuzzy on the link between the chemical and certain cancers. Consumer advocates hope a government warning in June will spur increased demand for products with little or no formaldehyde — for items as diverse as plywood, pressed wood, wrinkle-free shirts and hair straighteners.

Among funeral directors?

Not likely.

Next to arsenic, which is no longer used, undertakers insist nothing else preserves the body long enough so that it is presentable for public viewing and can be shipped.

In embalming rooms across the country, the focus is on limiting exposure while still using enough of the chemical to keep the body looking as lifelike as possible.

“Family members,” John Fitch Jr., senior vice president of advocacy for the National Funeral Directors Association, “have a fairly high expectation.”

Chester Higgins Jr. / New York Times News Service

Isaiah Owens, a funeral director in Harlem, says newer embalming fluids don’t work as well as formaldehyde. “I wouldn’t embalm a body that is being shipped overseas” with an alternative,” he said. percent formaldehyde, while a more concentrated form — up to 50 percent formaldehyde — is injected into the body cavity.

An average embalming requires a minimum of three gallons of the embalming solution, said Melissa Johnson Williams, executive director of the American Society of Embalmers.

Undertakers have been aware of formaldehyde’s dangers for more than a decade — the first workplace restrictions on formaldehyde came in the 1980s — and many have been changing their embalming practices to make the process safer.

“In our new facility, the ventilation is very good,” said Michael Lensing, co-owner of the Lensing Funeral and Cremation Service, in Iowa City, Iowa. “In our old facility, oh, my God. It was different.” At the Lensing funeral home, roughly 60 percent of the bodies that come in are embalmed.

Various forms of body preservation have been around for eons, including mummification by the ancient Egyptians. During the Civil War, embalmers prepared the remains of soldiers in the battlefield and shipped them back to their family by train or horse and buggy. A high point, in embalming lore, is that President Abraham Lincoln’s body traveled by train from Washington to Springfield, Ill., with public viewings of the preserved remains along the way.

At that time, arsenic was one of the primary preservatives.

It was eventually replaced by formaldehyde.

Modern-day embalming fluid is a mixture of formaldehyde, other less toxic chemicals and water. The embalming fluid that is injected to the arterial system, to replace blood, is up to 5

Dodge’s company began selling embalming fluids without formaldehyde a few years ago, and some companies now market “green burials” in which less toxic chemicals are used. But while the sales of nonformaldehyde products are increasing, she said that as of yet they simply do not work as well and cost nearly three times as much.

The problem is that the new embalming fluids do not give bodies that “everlasting effect,” said Ed Lins, a funeral director at Cross Island Funeral Service, in New York.

“I wouldn’t embalm a body that is being shipped overseas with it,” said Isaiah Owens, who owns a funeral home in Harlem, “It may look perfectly well. But it

may be smelling.”

The first major safety improvements in the funeral industry’s use of formaldehyde came in the 1980s after the Occupational Safety and Health Administration set exposure limits for the chemical in the workplace, including mortuaries. Then, about a decade ago, the National Funeral Directors Association met with chemical companies and urged them to come up with alternatives to formaldehyde, Fitch, the association’s senior vice president, said.

Two years ago, the association released a stronger set of recommendations for how its members should deal with formaldehyde.

Foremost on the list was installing a proper ventilation system that regularly changes the air in the room and is tested often to make sure it is working properly.

Since formaldehyde is heavier than air, ventilators should be installed below “the breathing zone of the embalmer.” The association also recommends that embalmers wear respirators and nitrile gloves, rather than latex, because they are more resistant to formaldehyde.

lawns, for example.

Another 102,331 people will share in the settlement because Countrywide gave them incorrect accountings about how much they owed on their mortgages or added fees and escrow charges without notice, the trade commission said. Because these borrowers had filed Chapter 13 bankruptcies to try to keep their homes, the erroneous amounts supplied by Countrywide were also filed with the courts. Of these borrowers, about 43,000 were hit with improper fees that Countrywide levied after their bankruptcies had been concluded

and they were no longer under court supervision.

The recipients under the settlement are borrowers whose loans were serviced by Countrywide between Jan. 1, 2005, and July 1, 2008. In addition to being the nation’s largest mortgage lender, Countrywide was also the biggest loan servicer, administering $1.4 trillion in mortgages. Countrywide nearly collapsed under the weight of its subprime lending, however, and was acquired in a fire sale by Bank of America in 2008.

It took more than a year to identify all of the borrowers in-

jured by Countrywide’s practices because the company’s records were disorganized and chaotic, according to people briefed on the investigation. After the deal was struck, Bank of America was given 30 days to provide the FTC with a list of borrowers who had been overcharged. The company failed to meet the deadline, and its later assessments of those who had been victimized were found to be incomplete.

Ultimately, Bank of America had to hire an accounting firm to determine that it had correctly identified all the borrowers who were owed money. Most of the

consumers receiving money in the settlement will get $500 or less, but 5 percent will receive $5,000 or more, the trade commission said.

When Bank of America settled the FTC’s charges last year, it said it was doing so “to avoid the expense and distraction associated with litigating the case.”

The company did not admit wrongdoing but was barred from the conduct cited by the commission. It also agreed to use a “data integrity program” to ensure that the information it uses in servicing loans in Chapter 13 cases is accurate.

Changing practices

help improve longstanding image problems. Anyone can sell tickets on StubHub, but a large portion of its users are brokers, or professional scalpers — not a very beloved constituency. Ticketmaster has long been criticized by fans for the surcharges it adds to tickets (some of which go to pay theaters and promoters).

Over the past decade, many states have lifted scalping restrictions, allowing a robust secondary market to develop online.

That often pushes ticket prices for the most in-demand shows out of most consumers’ reach, but the market dynamics can also help fans; a StubHub spokesman said that so far this year almost half the tickets there have sold for less than face value.

Both the Fan Freedom Project and the Fans First Coalition say they support basic consumer protections. But they differ over paperless ticketing, a technology that has also become the contentious lobbying issue between Ticketmaster and StubHub, which have spent the past year fighting state by state to influence legislation on ticketing.

Paperless ticketing works like

an airline e-ticket, with no traditional ticket printed when a customer places an order. Instead, a fan shows a credit card at the theater box office to enter the show, guaranteeing that the person who originally placed the order is the same one attending the event.

The technology is favored by Ticketmaster and some artists as an antiscalping measure. But it is viewed as a threat to the market dominance of StubHub, which sold more than $1 billion in second-hand tickets last year.

StubHub and the Fan Freedom Project believe that a ticket should be treated as a commodity to be traded or resold at a buyer’s discretion.

“As fans, we should be able to sell or give away our tickets to anyone we choose, anytime we choose, in any way we choose,” the Fan Freedom Project says in its mission statement.

Last year, Ticketmaster failed to prevent a change to New York’s scalping law, supported by StubHub and scalpers, which required that consumers have the option for paper tickets. Similar fights have spread to Minnesota, North Carolina, New Jersey and Ten-

No good substitute

nessee, and a bill has been introduced in Congress that would prohibit many restrictions on reselling tickets.

“This issue may get settled on K Street rather than Main Street,” said Gary Bongiovanni, the editor of Pollstar, a concert industry trade publication.

Although Live Nation and StubHub helped create the two nonprofit groups, neither is represented on their boards. Yet Live Nation’s stamp is amply evident on the Fans First Coalition. Of the 35 artists listed among its members, at least 21 are managed by Live Nation and its affiliates.

The company’s competitors also represent a minority of the coalition. The coalition’s secretary, David Balcer, is the director of ticketing at a theater operated

by AEG Live, the second-largest promoter after Live Nation. But Randy Phillips, AEG’s chief executive, said that the company itself

FAIR & RODEO

had not been invited.

Nathan Hubbard, Live Nation’s chief executive for ticketing and the head of Ticketmaster, acknowledged in an interview that the company supported the Fans First Coalition. Scalping, he said, has become such a widespread problem that it has become crucial to protect ordinary buyers, he said.

“This company hasn’t focused on the fan, and the industry as a whole hasn’t focused on the fan,” Hubbard said. “And as a result we have a fan-experience problem across the board. Everything you’ve seen us do publicly, we’ve been pushing for how to reorient the industry on what’s right for the fan.”

FORT WORTH, Texas — American Airlines is buying at least 460 new planes over the next five years from Airbus and Boeing in a record order that breaks Boeing’s exclusive grip on American’s fleet.

American said Wednesday it will buy 260 planes from Airbus, 200 from rival Boeing Co., and take options to buy hundreds more. It expects the new jets to provide much-needed savings in fuel costs. American’s current fleet is among the least fuel-efficient in the industry.

The deal is a major boost for Airbus, which hadn’t won an order from American since the 1980s. Boeing did salvage one of its biggest sales ever — a huge consolation considering that it was in danger of losing the whole order to its European rival. The jets carry a sticker price of more than $38 billion, although big airlines regularly get discounts and routinely play one aircraft maker off the other to get better deals.

Analysts said American’s bold strike would put more pressure on other airlines with aging fleets to buy new planes too.

American’s order covers models in the Airbus A320 family, which seat from 100 to 185 or more passengers, and Boeing’s workhorse 737 jet.

Banks zero in on wealthy to boost revenue Overall demand shrinks as number of high-net-worth individuals grows

“Every board of directors of every bank in the world wants to focus on wealth management now.”

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

— Joe Hoffmeyer, principal, Phoenix Financial Services Consulting

ST. LOUIS — As the economic recovery sputters forward, banks continue to bleed revenue in such mainstays as commercial lending and, of course, mortgages.

So they are increasingly catering to the only customers who have survived the Great Recession relatively unscathed: rich folks.

Customers with more than $1 million in liquid assets (not including the house, or two) can expect some extra coddling these days, as banks are adding services and staff to their wealth management divisions.

The new focus for many banks stems largely from a simple lack of other options — as historic government bailouts wind down and sobered consumers and businesses grow increasingly allergic to new debt. Nearly a fourth of Americans are underwater on their homes, and so won’t be needing a mortgage; and starting or expanding a business into the current headwinds takes a brave and well-capitalized soul. Simultaneously, banks have seen their bedrocks of revenue from debit card and overdraft fees eroded by new federal regulations.

By contrast, the 3.4 million people in North America holding more than $1 million in liquid assets actually grew their wealth by 9.1 percent last year, to $11.6 trillion, according to Merrill Lynch’s World Wealth Report released last month. The number of high-net-worth individuals in North America has also risen, growing 8.6 percent last year.

Bank of America’s Global Wealth and Investment Manage-

sultation goes far beyond investment advice.

“We take a holistic view of a person, from retirement to cashflow planning to estate planning,” said Maurice Quiroga, managing director and executive vice president of PNC Wealth Management’s office in Clayton.

Last July, U.S. Bank hired Michael Cole from Wells Fargo & Co., where he served as national director of its Family Wealth Group, to lead its ultra-high-networth business. Cole is spearheading the new business unit U.S. Bank launched in April, Ascent Private Capital Management, targeting those with investable assets of $25 million or more.

The bank previously offered services to this group before, but the new branding reflects efforts to expand its service offerings and its financial advisor staff nationwide. U.S. Bank’s first two Ascent offices will open in Denver and Minneapolis this year, with several more offices planned.

“U.S. Bank three to four years ago looked at wealth management and identified it as an avenue of growth for the bank,” said Mark Jordahl, president of wealth management at U.S. Bank.

Jordahl said he was increasingly seeing demand from ultrahigh-net-worth individuals for establishing trusts for charitable giving that will last for years.

“It’s becoming much more about managing the impact of the wealth you’re blessed to have.”

Vetting potential financial advisers

By Dan Serra McClatchy-Tribune News Service

As with any business, the potential for conflict between customer and business always exists.

In the case of investment adviser and investor, the claim can be quite serious when a dramatic loss of money is involved. Many times the adviser is blamed, but the investor may have been able to reduce the chance of loss.

This prevention exists in the form of doing homework on an adviser before signing on as a client. Many safeguards exist to sniff out a bad adviser. First visit www.adviserinfo.sec.gov. Click on “Investment Adviser Search” and search by name or firm.

You’ll find brochures describing advisers and their business.

Make sure the services offered match your needs and the fees are reasonable compared with others you search. Finally, review the disciplinary section to see if the firm or adviser has been subject to complaints or regulation violations.

Make sure you search for each adviser at the firm. Also look for the adviser’s credentials including education and professional designations, such as certified financial planner. This is a good way to evaluate the adviser’s competence.

When it’s time to meet a potential adviser, you should ask for clear disclosure on fees. When evaluating fees on investments, always ask the adviser if a similar investment has a lower fee. Advisers who act under a fiduciary duty must do what is best for you, while those who act under a suitability standard only must prove an investment was suitable, not necessarily the least expensive.

Tobacco

“Because it has a mild taste, we’re concerned dissolvable tobacco will be a starter product for kids.”

Continued from B1 But public health officials and anti-smoking advocates fear that the products will help initiate a new generation of smokers. The flavoring and packaging appeal to children, they argue, and teenagers will gravitate toward a product they can easily hide.

Today, the Food and Drug Administration will take up the issue with an advisory committee hearing on the effect of dissolvable tobacco products on public health.

“Tobacco companies are always one step ahead of the sheriff,” said Sen. Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio, one of several senators who asked the FDA to review the products. “They have found ways to evade the rules and regulations and public health warnings.”

The first dissolvable tobacco product, a lozenge called Ariva, debuted in 2001. But in the last year the number of products on sale or in test marketing has jumped and major tobacco companies have entered the arena. Reynolds is market-testing two other products, Camel Strips and Camel Sticks, in addition to Camel Orbs. Philip Morris is test marketing a dissolvable tobacco stick.

At the same time, use of smokeless tobacco — snuff, chew, electronic cigarettes and, increasingly, dissolvable tobacco — is growing at a rate of about 7 percent per year, according to a 2010 report by Research and Markets, an international market research and data company.

In some states, use of smokeless tobacco products among men is almost as high as the national prevalence of cigarette smoking among adults, which stands at 20.8 percent, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Across the U.S., 7 percent of U.S. adult males use smokeless tobacco, according to the CDC. Use among kids is growing too.

According to a 2010 survey by Monitoring the Future, an annual nationwide study funded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse, 8.5 percent of 12th-graders said they’d used a smokeless tobacco product in the last 30 days compared with 6.7 percent in 2003.

“Because it has a mild taste, we’re concerned dissolvable tobacco will be a starter product for kids,” said Matthew Myers, president of the Washington-based anti-smoking group Campaign for Tobacco-Free

— Matthew Myers, president, Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids

Background

“One cannot call any tobacco product absolutely safe,” said Rodu, who said he receives funds from tobacco companies to do his research but has no personal ties to any company. “But the health risks of using smokeless tobacco products over the long term are so low that they are barely measurable by modern epidemiological evidence.”

Continued from B1 A woman posing naked in photos she put up on an image-sharing site didn’t get the job offer she was seeking at a hospital.

Other background reports have turned up examples of people making anti-Semitic comments and racist remarks, he said. Then there was the job applicant who belonged to a Facebook group, “This Is America. I Shouldn’t Have to Press 1 for English.”

“Does that mean you don’t like people who don’t speak English?” asked Drucker rhetorically.

Drucker said his goal was to conduct pre-employment screenings that would help companies meet their obligation to conduct fair and consistent hiring practices while protecting the privacy of job candidates.

For example, he said the reports redact references to a person’s religion, race, marital status, sexual orientation, disability and other information protected under federal employment laws, which companies are not supposed to ask about during interviews. Also, job candidates must first consent to the background check, and they are notified of any adverse information found.

He argues the search reduces the risk that employers may confuse the job candidate with someone else or expose the company to information that is not legally allowable or relevant. “Googling someone is ridiculously unfair,” he said. “An employer could discriminate against someone inadvertently. Or worse, they are exposing themselves to all kinds of allegations about discrimination.”

Marc Rotenberg, president of the Electronic Privacy Information Center, based in Washington, D.C., said that employers were entitled to gather information to make a determination about job-re-

Little regulation Kids. “Traditionally, girls have not used smokeless tobacco products.

But this product does not have a substantial smell or require spitting. There is a real concern that this product will appeal to adolescent girls, particularly those concerned about weight.”

Public health officials also have expressed concern about the effect on teeth and gums of holding the product in the mouth for 10 to 20 minutes and the effect on the stomach from swallowing the tobacco chemicals.

Little research Few studies have been done specifically on the potential health risks of dissolvable tobacco.

One study, published in March in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, tested four dissolvable tobacco products, three of which were being test-marketed, and found they contained mostly nicotine and a variety of flavorings, sweeteners and binders.

Some products contained coumarin, which has been banned as a flavoring agent in foods because of its link to liver damage, said study author John V. Goodpaster, an assistant professor in the forensic and investigative sciences program at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis.

Studies on other smokeless tobacco products show they are considerably less risky than smoking cigarettes and cigars, which raises the risk of lung and a variety of other cancers, respiratory illness and heart disease. However, smokeless products still increase the risk of oral, pancreatic and esophageal cancer as well as heart disease.

They can cause gum disease and can be unsafe for a fetus, health experts say.

The lowered risks of dissolvable products should be seen as a positive development, said Brad Rodu, a professor of medicine and chairman of tobacco harm reduction research at the University of Louisville in Kentucky.

THE BULLETIN • Thursday, July 21, 2011 B5

Sara Troy Machir, vice president of communications and investor relations at Star Scientific Inc., maker of Ariva and another dissolvable tobacco product called Stonewall, said the Glen Allen, Va.-based company is developing two new products, Ariva BDL and Stonewall BDL, with lower levels of tobacco-specific nitrosamines (BDL stands for “below detection limits”).

Machir said the company was founded with the mission of reducing harms associated with tobacco use and that “we have absolutely no interest in recruiting another generation of tobacco users.”

Star Scientific applied to the FDA last year for approval to market its two new products as “modified risk tobacco products.” To the chagrin of anti-smoking advocates, the FDA announced in March that the products were not subject to regulation under the 2009 Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act, which gives the agency the authority to regulate tobacco products.

Twelve senators, including Brown, Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., and Barbara Mikulski, D-Md., have asked the FDA to reverse its decision.

In April, the FDA announced it was developing a strategy to regulate additional categories of tobacco products and that it would review information on dissolvable tobacco from published studies, manufacturers’ research and the advisory committee meeting this week. The agency is expected to eventually close any loopholes that might prevent dissolvable tobacco products from escaping its jurisdiction.

“It’s very clear dissolvable products are here to stay, and I believe the FDA will have to deal with them,” Rodu said.

lated expertise, but he expressed concern that “employers should not be judging what people in their private lives do away from the workplace.”

Less than a third of the data surfaced by Drucker’s firm comes from such major social platforms as Facebook, Twitter and MySpace. He said much of the negative information about job candidates comes from deep Web searches that find comments on blogs and posts on smaller social sites, like Tumblr, the blogging site, as well as Yahoo user groups, e-commerce sites, bulletin boards and even Craigslist.

Then there are the photos and videos that people post — or find themselves tagged in — on Facebook and YouTube and other sharing sites like Flickr, Picasa, Yfrog and Photobucket.

And it is photos and videos that seem to get most people in trouble. “Sexually explicit photos and videos are beyond comprehension,” Drucker said. “We also see flagrant displays of weapons.

And we see a lot of illegal activity.

Lots and lots of pictures of drug use.”

He recalled one man who had 15 pages of photos showing himself with various guns, including an assault rifle. Another man included pictures of himself standing in a greenhouse with large marijuana plants.

Joe Bontke, outreach manager for the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission’s office in

Houston, said that he regularly reminds employers and human resource managers about the risks of violating federal antidiscrimination employment rules and laws by using online research in hiring decisions.

“Things that you can’t ask in an interview are the same things you can’t research,” he said, which includes the gamut of information covering a person’s age, gender, religion, disability, national origin and race.

That said, he added that 75 percent of recruiters are required by their companies to do online research of candidates. And 70 percent of recruiters in the United States report that they have rejected candidates because of information online, he said.

“We are living in a world where you have an amazing amount of information and data on every executive,” said Ann Blinkhorn, an executive recruiter in the converging technology, media and communications industry.

“I think that puts the burden on the recruiter and the hiring manager to be really thoughtful about what is important and not important when making the hiring decision.”

Bend, police union agree on contract extension

IN BRIEF La Pine districts consent to city The fate of La Pine’s sewer and water districts appears be settled, following months of controversy during which the city tried to take over the districts, and district officials resisted. Last week, commissioners for the districts signed documents to allow the city to absorb them.

City officials have raised concerns about mismanagement and nepotism at the districts.

At one point earlier this year, a water district commissioner threatened to sue the city if it pursued a takeover.

On July 14, the sewer and water commissioners — many of whom are new commissioners who were sworn in this month — signed resolutions to formally begin the process to allow the city to absorb the sewer and water districts. One current commissioner and several former commissioners took steps in June to start the process.

When water and sewer commissioners fought the city takeover in the past, they cited a federal law that prevents a forcible takeover while a U.S. Department of Agriculture loan is outstanding. The water and sewer districts hold U.S. Department of Agriculture loans and in the resolutions signed last week, the districts consented to the transfer of those loans to the city.

“This has been the only legal stumbling block to get this started for years,” La Pine City Manager Rick Allen wrote in an e-mail Wednesday. “The USDA required this letter or request to be sent before they would begin working on the transfer of the loans.”

A few hours after the walk through Lewis & Clark Park in NorthWest Crossing, Nala, the Fraley’s Labrador/German shorthaired pointer mix, began to vomit and suffer diarrhea.

The puppy’s eyes were glazed over, and she couldn’t stop drooling. She wouldn’t eat anything, and when she tried to drink water, it came back up violently.

Fraley rushed Nala to Bend’s Animal Emergency Center Sunday evening, where veterinarians told her the puppy had some type of poisoning — most likely mushroom poisoning.

“As we were leaving, I told my 10-yearold daughter to come downstairs and say goodbye to Nala,” Fraley said. “I wasn’t sure if she’d ever get to see her again.”

Nala was treated successfully with charcoal and fluid replacement. She returned home Monday morning after an overnight stay at the emergency center.

Nala is just one of the many cases of possible pet mushroom poisoning that have been popping up in Central Oregon animal emergency centers lately. Stephanie Brooks, a technician at the Deschutes Veterinary Clinic, said this is because of the unseasonably cool weather and prevalent growth of the fungus.

Bend city councilors approved an extension to a police union contract Wednesday that will give a 1 percent raise next year to more than 100 people who belong to the association.

While the city had been trying to avoid that salary bump given its current budget constraints, officials were willing to make the concession in exchange for the police union’s agreement to switch to a high-deductible health insurance plan Sept.

1.

The move to that new insurance plan, which will lower premium costs for the city, comes a year earlier than expected because the police union was not scheduled to discuss anything other than salary during recent negotiations.

More savings for the city City Manager Eric King said this will result in additional savings for the city that weren’t accounted for in its 2011-2013 budget. That two-year spending plan called for all three of the city’s unions to switch to a high-deductible plan. It also assumed there would be no cost-of-living adjustments for the unions.

“By moving to (the new insurance plan) a year early, there’s still an overall savings for what we projected in the budget,” King said. “There are some major transformational changes happening in how we’re looking at health care expenses, and this really helps us move in that direction.”

Sentencing of Bend mortgage broker imminent

By Scott Hammers The Bulletin

A Bend mortgage broker who admitted to falsifying documents for borrowers is due to be sentenced on multiple charges early next month in federal court.

Delbert L. Barber Jr., 46, is one of six people to plead guilty to loan and mortgage fraud charges for their actions in connection with Desert Sun Development. The now-defunct company built commercial and residential projects in Central Oregon between 2004 and 2008, and according to documents filed with the United States District Court, caused financial institutions to lose more than $19 million through the use of fraudulent loan applications.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Scott Bradford said the government plans to request a sentence of 27 months in prison, with three years post-prison supervision, and restitution of more than $340,000. Barber’s sentencing hearing is scheduled for Aug. 2.

Kendall Entler, 21 and from Bend, with her horse Shade at the Some Day Farm in Tumalo.

Kendall Entler entered a new world when she made the shift from an amateur to a professional equestrian rider earlier this year.

That doesn’t necessarily mean making a fortune.

Unlike other professional athletes, a professional equestrian’s income is determined by many factors. Some of it may come from riding itself, some from training, often a combination.

It’s a business. Lessons, boarding, horse shows, and horse sales all contribute to their income.

“You have to be in it because you love the sport,” said Catherine Cruger, a trainer at Some Day Farm in Tumalo. “You’re never going to make millions being a horse trainer.”

Most of the money trainers make goes back into the business.

Entler, who is competing in the Oregon High Desert Classics at the J Bar J Youth Ranch in Bend, estimates she makes about $25,000 a year as an assistant trainer.

“It varies because I get paid hourly and not salary,” she said.

Mushrooms

Union

Continued from C1 “The mushrooms are definitely out there,” Brooks said.

“Usually these cases happen a little earlier — in the springtime — but it’s definitely not summer out there right now.”

Chad Moles, a veterinarian at the Animal Emergency Center, said that since the beginning of July, the clinic has seen about 14 toxic mushroom poisoning cases a week, which is unusual this time of year.

There is no specific test for mushroom poisoning. Often the only way to tell whether a pet has consumed the fungus is to inspect its vomit once symptoms start. Symptoms exhibited by dogs that have eaten toxic mushrooms include staggering, trembling, weakness, vomiting, diarrhea and seizures.

Moles says the Amanita mushroom is often the culprit. Depending on how many mushrooms a dog has eaten, signs will appear within two to six hours. In some cases, if care isn’t given in time, the poisoning can be deadly.

Nala’s symptoms started shortly after the trip to the park. Later, Fraley put the pieces together, remembering that she had let Nala off-leash for about 20 minutes, when the dog could have easily found and eaten some toxic fungus.

“Usually, dogs should know better,” Fraley said. “But she’s [Nala] a pointer, and she’s always getting into things.”

Moles says that this is often the case with younger dogs that constantly chew on things. Moles says it’s best to err on the side of caution if mushroom poisoning is suspected.

“It’s very treatable if vet care is obtained,” Moles said.

Brooks said owners should not leave pets unattended in unfamiliar surroundings and keep an eye on what the dogs are eating when outside.

Moles recommends owners walk their yard every morning before letting their dogs out. If owners find mushrooms, they should remove them carefully with gloves, making sure not to break the tops. Otherwise, mushroom spores will spread and the fungus will multiply profusely.

Continued from C1 So far the city has realized enough savings with the Bend Firefighters Association, which made the switch to the high-deductible plan last year, that it also wants to make nonunion employees switch Sept. 1.

The city is also negotiating with the City of Bend Employee Association to move to that plan on Sept. 1, though that union’s contract is not up until 2012.

King said he expects a decision from the union by the end of this week or early next week.

With the Bend Police Association deciding to take a 1 percent raise next year and switch to the high-deductible plan in Septem-

Desert Sun Continued from C1 In June, Barber pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit bank fraud, and he is set to become the first of those who have entered guilty pleas to proceed to sentencing. Bradford said seven more people connected to Desert Sun Development are scheduled to go to trial in March.

In 2006, Barber was the owner/operator of Pine Mountain Mortgage when he was invited to process loans for borrowers looking to purchase houses built

by Desert Sun Development.

Barber learned that Desert Sun Development was providing the borrowers with money for the down payment and closing of the loan, and intended to subsidize or pay the borrowers’ mortgage payments until the houses could be flipped — at which time the borrowers would repay Desert Sun Development.

According to court documents, in one instance Barber prepared a loan application claiming $125,000 that had been lent to the borrowers by Desert Sun Development was the borrower’s own funds. The misrepresentation allowed the borrowers to qualify for a loan they would otherwise have been unable to afford, and the lender eventually foreclosed on the house.

Tuesday, Barber pleaded guilty to an unrelated charge of health care fraud for attempting to fraudulently reinstate his medical insurance following a motorcycle crash.

After letting his insurance lapse, Barber crashed his motorcycle in 2009. In an attempt to reinstate his insurance, Barber

ber, it extended its contract by one year, meaning it is not scheduled to negotiate for a new contract until 2013.

The Bend Firefighters Association, which in June agreed to forgo a pay raise this year, is scheduled to renegotiate its contract in 2012.

In other news, city councilors were told that if they included a $5.6 million hydropower component in the overhaul of the Bridge Creek water system, enough revenue would be generated from energy sales that there would be no additional impact on ratepayers.

That information came from the city’s consultants on the project, HDR Engineering Inc., and included estimates that showed the city could generate up to $11.7 million in revenue by 2060 when

taking into account the time value of money, or the principle that a dollar today is worth more than a dollar 10 years from now.

Councilors expect to decide whether to add hydropower to the Bridge Creek surface water system Aug. 3. They already approved moving forward with the reconstruction of a 10-mile-long water delivery pipeline and the building of a new treatment facility needed to meet federal clean water mandates.

It’s estimated that particular portion of the project will cost $62.6 million. With the hydropower option, the cost will increase to $68.2 million.

Nick Grube can be reached at 541-633-2160 or at ngrube@bendbulletin.com.

Additional guilty pleas in Desert Sun case Shannon Egeland, Desert Sun vice president, pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit bank fraud and bank fraud. He admitted to temporarily depositing money in employees’ bank accounts to help them qualify for loans, and to signing a fraudulent $1.9 million loan application to build his 20,000-square-foot home in Powell Butte.

Jeremy Kendall, a Desert Sun employee, pleaded guilty to two counts each of conspiracy to commit bank fraud and bank fraud. He admitted to submitting fraudulent documents to financial institutions to finance various Desert Sun projects.

Robert Brink, an Umpqua Bank building inspector, pleaded guilty to making false statements to Umpqua Bank, certifying construction was underway on two of Desert Sun’s commercial projects when no construction had occurred.

Teresa Ausbrooks, an escrow officer, pleaded guilty to two counts of bank fraud. She admitted making false statements relating to her income and debts in loan applications to finance the construction of two homes.

Michael Wilson, Desert Sun residential construction superintendent, pleaded guilty to one count of bank fraud. He admitted making false statements about his income and assets to buy a Desert Sun-built home.

— Scott Hammers, The Bulletin

faxed his provider a fraudulent letter and check claiming he had not failed to pay his premiums.

After the reinstatement was denied, Barber made harassing visits and threatening phone calls to the provider, court documents state, and filed a lawsuit against the provider in state court.

The two cases were consolidated by the federal court, and the sentence sought by prosecutors is for both charges, Bradford said.

One of the two men at the helm of Desert Sun Development has pleaded guilty to fraud charges, while the other has yet to go to trial.

Shannon Egeland, of La Grande, a Desert Sun Development co-founder and vice president, pleaded guilty last year

to conspiracy to commit bank fraud and bank fraud. He has not yet been sentenced, and a status conference between Egeland’s attorneys and prosecutors is scheduled for October.

Earlier this year, Egeland was sentenced to 40 days in jail for illegal distribution of prescription drugs within 1,000 feet of a school.

Former Desert Sun Development president Tyler Fitzsimons is set to go to trial next year on charges of conspiracy to commit bank fraud, making false statements on loan applications, bank fraud and money laundering.

And it’s not always glamorous.

“Make sure you are ready to work your butt off,” Entler said.

“If you are looking for a 9-to-5 kind of job, it’s not for you.

“I love this sport more than

anything. Its a hard sport to do, but if you’re dedicated to it, you can definitely get there. Your whole heart goes into it.”

Entler, 21, has been riding horses for 12 years and just recently achieved her pro status.

She began riding when her mother signed her up for lessons.

“Horseback riding was my mom’s dream that she never got to fulfill,” she said. “It wasn’t really a big interest of mine until I started doing it.”

Entler competed in the top shows since she was 9 years old

in the hunter, equitation and jumper events. She was offered an assistant training position by Cruger, her former instructor.

“She watches and learns quickly,” Cruger said.

As an assistant trainer, Entler teaches lessons and rides horses.

When Cruger goes to out-of-town shows, Entler stays at the barn to manage the horses and clients.

“She’s an extension of me,” Cruger said. “As an amateur you compete in the sport to gain recognition, but as a pro you are looking to bring young riders

and horses along.”

No longer an amateur, Entler has the responsibility of helping her students prepare for their events at the High Desert Classics.

Entler got her first jumper, Shade, for her 16th birthday. She hopes to compete on Shade next week at the Classics in the 1.10meter jumpers at the Grand Prix ring.

WALNUT CREEK, Calif. — Lousy bookkeeping in California’s prison system put millions of taxpayers’ dollars at risk of fraud and abuse, according to an audit released Wednesday by state Controller John Chiang.

Chiang said the sloppiness was due to “a lack of focus.

What we’ve heard in prior instances is that it (bookkeeping) is not their core function, but they have to understand they’re not going to be able to perform those core functions unless they have financial controls.”

The audit comes amid increasing pressure to find savings in the prison system,

which now accounts for 11.4 percent of the state’s generalfund spending. In comparison, about 11.9 percent goes to higher education.

Chiang said the state’s fiscal crisis means administrators must strive to save every dollar.

The review of California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation records found that inadequate collection efforts led to delays in collecting millions in overpayments for employee salary and travel advances.

O Man who swindled nearly $19M in Ponzi scheme gets 9 years

Grass seed farmers fret about late, wet harvest

The Associated Press

By Alex Paul Albany Democrat-Herald

ALBANY — Third-generation grass seed farmer Austin Sayer of Brownsville calls this year’s late, wet harvest “psychological warfare” between man and nature, as midvalley farmers nervously wait to fire up combines and get the annual harvest in high gear.

A long, wet spring and unusual rainfall in July are keeping farmers out of fields when harvest would normally be in full swing.

The midvalley received .88 of an inch of rain over the weekend, compared with a weekend average of .05 inch.

The average rainfall for July is .52 inches, and so far the midvalley has received twice that: 1.05 inches.

‘A waiting game’ “It’s a waiting game right now,” Sayer said. “It all depends on weather the next few days. If the rain quits, the sun comes out and we’ve got 80- to 90-degree days with some wind, things might not be too bad.”

Sayer also operates a seed cleaning warehouse on the family farm between Brownsville and Sweet Home on Highway 228.

So far, only a couple of truckloads of meadowfoam have been bagged, and it came from his own fields. Clients haven’t started their harvest at all.

“The meadowfoam has less material, so it dries out faster,” Sayer said. “We’re at least two weeks behind in terms of harvest. We didn’t cut meadowfoam until July 5 and, normally, we would have been combining by then.

“If the weather turns, it won’t affect overall yield much.”

Sayer said that due to improved grass seed varieties and harvesting equipment, midvalley farmers have pushed harvest up into July, from what had been an August event decades ago.

Todd Grenz, special waste technician at Lane County Waste Management in Eugene, examines some of the used paint containers that await shipping at the Lane County facility last week.

Recycling pilot program paints picture of success More than 280,000 gallons of unwanted coatings collected in first eight months The Associated Press EUGENE — Oregon’s first-inthe-nation environmental plan for recycling paint is 1 year old, and its proponents are claiming success.

PaintCare, a paint recycling program that launched its pilot project in Oregon, collected more than 284,000 gallons of paint in its first eight months, The Eugene Register-Guard reported.

Since its start in July 2010, the program has recycled more than half of the latex paint it collected and returned it to store shelves.

Most oil-based paint was processed and used in fuel blending.

The program has 90 collection

O B Man still on respirator after Crater Lake fall MEDFORD — A Syracuse, N.Y., man remains on a respirator at an Oregon hospital after falling 300 feet into the Crater Lake caldera.

Rogue Medical Center spokesman Grant Walker says 27-yearold Eric Brimlow remains in critical condition.

Rescuers plucked Brimlow from the caldera at Crater Lake last week. Witnesses say he was with friends when he went beyond a barrier onto a snow bank at an overlook, fell headfirst and slid partway down the 700-foot wall toward the lake. His fall was stopped by a tree.

2 workers contact power line, take fall PORTLAND — A Portland Fire Bureau spokesman says two men installing gutters on the third floor of an apartment building were shocked, burned and knocked to the ground when a gutter section made contact with an overhead power line.

Spokesman Paul Corah says the men were knocked off their ladders.

He says they suffered lifethreatening injuries Tuesday and were rushed to area hospitals.

The Oregonian said investigators responded from the Oregon Safety and Health Division as well as the Fire Bureau.

System will monitor court-ordered service ALBANY — Linn County has authorized the purchase of an Internet-based tracking program that the county says will cut down on the number of criminal offenders who skip out on work crews or community service orders.

The Albany Democrat-Herald reported the county expects the system to help with the approximately 300 offenders who have so far avoided their sentences.

The current system is paperbased and makes tracking offenders difficult, especially between agencies.

A sheriff’s office crew coordinator says the new system will make it more difficult for offenders to forge time records and completion forms.

Court orders, referrals, time cards and completion notification will all be done online.

— From wire reports

sites statewide.

“We really want the paint to be on the wall, not in the waste stream,” said Alison Keane, executive director for PaintCare.

“Paint has always been the No. 1 product in cost and amount for hazardous waste (disposal).”

The Legislature passed the paint “take back” program in 2009 after similar measures failed in Vermont and Connecticut.

Funded by deposit The program is funded by a deposit with no return value that changes based on the amount of paint purchased.

One quart to one gallon of paint now costs an additional 75 cents, and anything more than one gallon increased by $1.60.

The program governs the recycling of architectural paint, the oil-based and latex paints sold in containers of 5 gallons or less

used on the interior and exterior of buildings. It also includes deck coatings, primers, varnishes and wood coatings. The paint is collected at drop-off centers, reprocessed and then sold.

The program is part of a larger push toward “product stewardship,” the idea that manufacturers should take responsibility for what they produce after consumers are done with them.

PaintCare hopes to pass similar legislation in Washington state.

The program has saved money in Lane County, where officials say it has helped cut paint disposal costs.

“For the consumers, it appears that the majority of folks think it’s a good idea,” Keane said. “(Paint) is not sitting in your garage for 20 years. If you’re finished with a project, you can bring it right back, and we will find a recycling opportunity for it.”

EUGENE — A 69-year-old California man who swindled more than 100 people out of nearly $19 million has been sentenced to nine years in prison.

Most of the victims were elderly and retired residents of the Oregon coastal town of Florence. Others lived as far away as Hawaii, Montana and Texas.

U.S. District Judge Michael Hogan sentenced Louis J. Borstelmann of Thousand Oaks, Calif., on Tuesday, ordering him to repay his victims upon his release at a minimum rate of $200 per month. Borstelmann previously forfeited $100,000 and a Lexus SUV. He pleaded guilty in March to mail fraud and money laundering.

Through his company, Sunburst Associates Inc., he solicited individuals to invest in real estate, falsely promising high rates of return and a security interest in property. He has admitted the alleged investments never existed and it was all a Ponzi scheme, in which he used new investor money to pay older investment obligations.

Hogan said he highlighted with colored ink the litany of harm that Borstelmann caused.

Among the victims: • Investor Stephanie McK-

enzie had saved money for decades, but now she can’t help her grandchildren go to college because her money is gone.

• Investor Marge Renwick and her husband both worked all their lives and now both need hearing aids and can’t afford them.

• Investor Shirley Rau lost her nest egg and her house on the coast; now she’s hoping for a HUD-sponsored apartment where she can live out her days.

“You have ruined my life,” she told Borstelmann on Tuesday.

The Register-Guard newspaper reported that Assistant U.S. Attorney Scott Bradford likened Borstelmann to the fictional character Gordon Gekko in the 1987 movie “Wall Street.”

In an impassioned court memo, Bradford wrote that the defendant lived by Gekko’s infamous assertion that “Greed is right, greed works.”

“Perhaps the more fitting mantra, at least as applied to this case, is that the love of money, greed, is the root of all evil, and that evil has reared its ugly head in Florence, Oregon, victimizing those in its path,” Bradford wrote.

“I’m very sorry for the damage I’ve caused to the victims’ lives,” Borstelmann told the judge.

Growth of COCC warrants new road

I

t is hard to measure what Central Oregon Community College means to Central Oregon. The oldest community college in the state, it began offering classes in 1949 and moved

to its own home in 1964. It has given literally thousands of local residents more education at a more reasonable price than anyone could have imagined 62 years ago.

It’s against that background that complaints by its neighbors over a proposed 700-foot road extension on the east side of the campus must be judged. And it’s against that background that those complaints are found wanting.

The Awbrey Butte Neighborhood Association has raised concerns about the proposed road, which would join two existing roads on campus.

The extension would complete a loop around the campus east of College Way, a move that college officials hope will relieve traffic along the latter and make travel around campus easier. Neighbors, meanwhile, worry that more traffic will mean more noise, more air pollution and more to disrupt their quiet neighborhood.

COCC is hardly a party school, and with almost no student housing nearby, there’s little chance that the loop will become the scene of squealing tires and tossed beer bottles.

Neighbors who feel they’ve been left out of the planning on the project should reconsider. The college did hold a public meeting on the proposal and has been far from secretive about

its plan. That public meeting, by the way, was not required by law, for the college is in a special planning district separate from its neighbors.

The college has also been at that location since the mid-1960s, almost 30 years longer than the oldest house on nearby O’Brien Drive. Surely people who live in the neighborhood were aware of its presence when they moved in. They could not reasonably have expected the school and the roads that serve it to remain unchanged through the years.

During its 46 years on the hill, COCC has proved itself a valuable member of the community. It has enriched the culture of the area with drama, art, music and lectures. Without it, arguably, Oregon State University and other four-year institutions would have been far less willing to commit time and money for classes here, and the OSU-Cascades Campus might never have become reality.

That the school needs better campus transportation options than it now has is a good thing, not a bad one.

Progress not perfect T

here was something of a breakthrough moment in the relationship between the state of Oregon and its union employees this week.

The American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees Council 75 reached a tentative agreement for the union to contribute to its health care premiums for the first time in history. That progress should not blind us to the fact that it’s still not much of a deal for the state.

If the agreement is approved, the workers will start paying 5 percent of their employee health insurance premium starting on Jan. 1, 2012. The state says if the state’s two largest unions agree to that 5 percent, state savings would be about $24 million for 2011-2013.

That all sounds great.

Except compare that 5 percent to what most Americans pay. Most Americans pay a far higher share of their health insurance premium than that.

Workers on average pay 19 percent of the premiums for single coverage and 30 percent of the premium for family coverage, according to the Kaiser Family Foundation’s 2010 survey.

There are other aspects of the deal. There are so-called “cost-ofliving adjustments” of 2.95 percent through 2013. There are automatic pay increases called step increases in

the second year of the contract.

Those may not be outrageous.

But do you get automatic pay increases? Or is how you perform on the job and the performance of the place you work the key to determining whether or not you get a raise?

State government hands out automatic raises.

The agreement also means more furlough days for state employees, 12 to 14 mandatory unpaid days off.

That is a cut in pay. Many state workers would perhaps rather work and get the money.

But the furlough days are being structured the same way as they were in the last two years. State government will essentially shut down on some days in the next two years, giving state employees long weekends.

Instead, those furlough days could have been scheduled by managers to keep state services readily available to the public.

The state and AFSCME negotiators do deserve credit for the tentative agreement they have reached. There was some atypical transparency to the negotiations. The agreement is not fiscally insane.

That said, the state is not demanding of state workers the efficiencies, performance standards and benefit payments required throughout the private sector.

My Nickel’s Worth Entitlements and taxes As a 71-year-old retired citizen and veteran, I am concerned about the national debt and the imminent possibility of default.

I listen with dismay to the politicos of both parties who are playing “chicken” with our economic future by adopting all-or-nothing positions regarding taxes and entitlements and show no inclination to compromise.

I wonder how many of my fellow citizens share my view that in order to effectively address the national debt, we need to both reduce entitlements and increase taxes.

Death panels are here When the national health care debate was waging in Congress, the Republicans said the plan would create death panels to determine who gets care and who doesn’t. At the time I thought, “Bull. Not in the United States.

That will never happen.”

Well I was wrong. Death panels do exist!

My wife has an extremely rare muscle disease for which there no cure. It is a disease that falls within the muscular dystrophy umbrella of diseases.

Normal treatment for her type of disease is steroids. She cannot take steroids because steroids impede healing and part of her disease includes healing problems. She has been getting an IVIG (intravenous immunoglobulin) treatment that slows the progression of the disease, but is no longer working as

well as it should.

She is under the care of one of the most eminent neuromuscular research doctors in the world who wants to put her on Rituximab, a cancer drug, that he has had success with on similar variations of the disease. Medicare has denied coverage because her diagnosis doesn’t fit the drug’s common usage.

How can a Medicare doctor, probably a retired general practitioner who is a consultant, dispute one of the most eminent neuromuscular research doctors in the world?

If this is not a death panel, what is?

Because of this, Obama’s Affordable Care Act must be repealed and death panels eliminated so that people can get treatments they need.

So whose responsibility is it to fix these holes? The city? It don’t have any money, you say? Well, at least it did outline some of the holes with paint.

I thought this meant it was going to fix them, but I guess it was just being thoughtful and making them more visible for us. Well, in its defense, it is paving some streets here in Bend; just not the ones that really need it! I just don’t get it.

Recently I was in Redmond, and I have to say, that city must be budgeting and spending its money wisely. Its roads are in great shape.

It is definitely doing something right.

Dodging Bend potholes

In May, a commercial driver in the western United States commented on 15 driving violations that he has observed while driving in Bend. I would like to add a 16th observation.

Driving in Bend with California license plates can be very tense and frustrating. I’ve been cut off and tailgated with bright lights flashing in my rear-view mirror. I’ve been given various finger and hand signals and told to “go back to California where I belong.”

On the other hand, when I drive a vehicle with Oregon license plates, none of these things happen.

“California drivers” are not the problem — it’s those California license plates that seem to frustrate and upset some of the Central Oregon drivers.

John “J.B.” Vander Ark Bend

Oh, beautiful Bend. We really are lucky to have mountains, lakes, hiking trails and events that draw so many people to our city.

Yes, there are many things to do here in Bend … including dodging the potholes that have sprung up all over our roads. I make dodging potholes into a game. I am pretty good at it; I know where they all are, and I dodge and swerve when necessary.

I laugh at the car in front of me when the driver fails to dodge the pothole as well, and wonder if the driver is an out-of-towner or just not as good at the game as I am. Some holes have grown so deep that I’m afraid someone might lose a small animal or child in one, never to be seen again.

From Gallipoli to Singapore, Murdoch’s history tells all R MAUREEN

ight before a clown threw blue shaving cream on Rupert Murdoch and Murdoch’s pink-clad wife threw a roundhouse at the clown, the most powerful media mogul in history was reminiscing about his father.

In a meeting last week in London with the parents of the murdered 13year-old Milly Dowler, whose cellphone was hacked by his hacks — digital activity that left her family with a hope that she might still be alive — Murdoch said News of the World had not lived up to the standards of his father and mother.

Now he was talking sentimentally to British members of Parliament investigating the hacking and Scotland Yard bribery scandal about how his father had seen newspapers as a force for good.

“I just wanted to say that I was brought up by a father who was not rich but was a great journalist,” the 80-year-old Murdoch said. “And he, just before he died, bought a small paper specifically saying in his will it had given him the chance to do good. And I remember what he

did and what he was most proud of and for which he was hated by many people in this country for many, many years, which was expose the scandal in Gallipoli, which I remain very, very proud of.”

The late Keith Murdoch, the grandson of two Scottish ministers, was a media baron in Australia who wielded the power to make and break prime ministers, just as his son later would.

And like Rupert, Keith’s heart, or as one Australian writer put it, “what he would have called his heart,” was drawn to brash tabloids.

As a young journalist during World War I, Keith Murdoch became famous when he visited the Gallipoli campaign and broke censorship rules barring any criticism of the conduct of war or tally of casualty figures. He wrote home to the Australian prime minister, a family friend, and he sneaked off to London to blow the whistle there — in a jingoistic, exaggerated way his son would appreciate — about the incompetence of the British command in charge of the deci-

DOWD

mation in Turkey, where 120,000 soldiers died, including 8,500 Australian infantry and light horsemen.

Old posters for the brilliant 1981 movie “Gallipoli” give Rupert Murdoch a producing credit. He financed half the movie to show the world why his father had been right.

Rupert wanted to avenge his father with the British establishment, and what sweeter way to do it than to take over the British press, including its most prestigious broadsheet, The Times of London, and help decide who runs Britain.

And, as the scandal creeps up the trellis of British power, who knows now how long it will be David Cameron’s home?

The hunters became the hunted during three hours of riveting testimony in the House of Commons. The News Corp. trio, baked in the bottom-feeding and whatever-it-takes business, seemed coached. They would say whatever it took. They stuck to a hoary formula for scandals, claiming the cognitive advantage that being on top of the world left them out of touch.

Playing the ruthless mogul reduced to helpless victim, Rupert came across better than his 38-year-old son James, with the Haldeman buzz cut, the American Harvard dropout accent, the “Mad Men” skinny blue tie, and the ingratiating over-articulateness hiding the arrogant entitlement.

Rebekah Brooks, the 43-year-old former editor of News of the World and daughter-figure to Rupert, was a prideful pre-Raphaelite Medusa, with a sweet face and soft voice spinning tales of innocence that didn’t quite gel.

At hearings revealing their corruption, the police revealed their incompe-

tence, unable to stop a lame comedian from further victimizing their self-professed victim.

Rupert Murdoch’s tabloids pandered to the lowest common denominator, but, in the end, his sleazy henchmen were lower than the people they pandered to.

People had a limit, as it turned out. Citizen Murdoch was brought low, his grip loosened and his myth deflated, by the power of social opprobrium.

His most revealing moment was when he volunteered his admiration of Singapore, calling it the most “open and clear society in the world.” Its leaders are so lavishly paid, he said, that “there’s no temptation, and it is the cleanest society you’d find anywhere.”

It was instructive that Murdoch chose to praise a polished, deeply authoritarian police state. Maybe that’s how corporations would live if they didn’t have to believe in people.

Wheeler upheld legacy of the Tuskegee Airmen

By Martin C. Evans McClatchy-Tribune News Servce

MELVILLE, N.Y. — When William Wheeler was a student at Howard University in 1943, he swallowed his bitterness, boarded a segregated train in Washington, D.C., and headed south.

Ahead of him awaited a groundbreaking aviation program that would eventually train the 994 black pilots who became known as the Tuskegee Airmen.

Wheeler, 87, who died Tuesday at Mercy Medical Center in Rockville Centre, N.Y., became one of them.

“I hated the country at the time, and wasn’t sure I wanted to fight for it,” Wheeler, a 47year Hempstead, N.Y., resident, said in 2010. “But I realized that despite our nation’s injustices, even slaves had fought for this country and that black people had fought in every U.S. war

‘Australia’ actor Ngoombujarra dies at age 44

since. I felt I couldn’t let that tradition down.”

As word of his death spread, Wheeler was praised for his efforts to preserve the legacy of the Tuskegee Airmen. In the last years of his life, Wheeler frequently participated in oral history projects at schools, air shows and aviation museums across the country.

“He understood the role of living history, and as a result, his inexhaustible energy saw him in classrooms, assemblies and constantly at Airpower,” said Gary Lewi, a spokesman for the American Airpower Museum in East Farmingdale, N.Y., where Wheeler frequently participated in programs.

While he was at Howard, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People persuaded President Franklin Roosevelt to end the military’s refusal to train black pilots and the Army began an all-black

flight school at Tuskegee, Ala. Wheeler scored well on an aptitude test and in March 1943 went to Washington’s Union Station to catch the train south.

After graduating from Tuskegee’s cadet program as a second lieutenant, he was assigned to an airfield in South Carolina for combat training.

One of his instructors was Spann Watson. Watson, a longtime Westbury, N.Y., resident, died in 2010.

After his honorable discharge, in 1945, he met Minnie Jenkens, an 18-year-old high school student, on a Harlem street corner. Two months later, they were married. She died in 2004.

“She was the love of my life,” he said.

In 2007, Wheeler was in attendance when President George W. Bush collectively presented the Tuskegee Airmen with the Congressional Gold Medal.

The Associated Press SYDNEY — David Ngoombujarra, one of Australia’s best-known indigenous actors whose films included “Australia” and “Rabbit-Proof Fence,” has died. He was 44.

The actor was found in a park Sunday and died at a hospital in Fremantle, near Perth on David Australia’s Ngoombujarra west coast.

Police have not determined the cause but said his death was not suspicious.

Two of his acclaimed films were “Rabbit-Proof Fence” and “Black and White,” both released in 2002 and based on true stories of Australia’s indigenous people.

“Rabbit-Proof Fence” won best film from the Australian Film Institute. Ngoombujarra won one of his three AFI awards for “Black and White,” in which he played an Aborigine convicted of killing a young white girl.

Ngoombujarra also won AFI awards for “Blackfellas” in 1993 and the Australian television show, “The Circuit.”

His other films included “Ned Kelly” and “Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles.”

TREES IN TROUBLE

Wh itebark pines need protection but won’t get it, U.S. officials say

By Matthew Brown

Environmentalist David Gonzales, of Jackson Hole, Wyo., looks up last summer at a whitebark pine tree killed by beetles in the mountains east of Jackson Hole.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has acknowledged the tree species’ plight, but says it has other priorities and a lack funding.

The Associated Press

BILLINGS — A high-elevation pine tree devastated by disease, beetles and climate change warrants greater protection under the Endangered Species Act, the Fish and Wildlife Service said this week. But the agency said it will not immediately list the whitebark pine as threatened or endangered because of higher priorities and a lack of funding.

Environmentalists sued the government last year in a bid to force it to confront the tree’s decline, which has resulted in huge expanses of dead and dying trees in parts of the Rocky Mountains. The government in 1994 turned down a similar attempt from environmentalists to enact petitions.

Whitebark pine nuts are an important food for threatened grizzly bears in and around Yellowstone National Park. The pines can live up to 1,000 years and thrive in conditions considered too harsh for most trees.

Yet in recent years, stands across the West have been devastated by the mountain pine beetle, a fungus known as blister rust and warmer temperatures.

Those direct threats have been exacerbated by policies to suppress wildfires that can kill off small trees, giving mature whitebark more room to grow.

“Those threats are already on the ground. They’re already having effects,” said Amy Nicholas, a Fish and Wildlife Service biologist based in Wyoming. “Current mortality rates are not holding steady; they’re increasing.”

Trees on an estimated 2 million acres across the West were killed by the beetles two years ago, according to the Fish and Wildlife Service. In some areas, 80 to 95 percent of trees with the beetles were killed as a changing climate allowed beetle populations to expand, the agency said.

Warmer temperatures are also harming the trees by allowing different tree species to take root in whitebark pine habitat.

Blister rust, introduced to North America in 1910, is now found in every major stand of

whitebark pine in the country except in the Great Basin area of Nevada — an area that accounts for less than 1 percent of the tree’s total distribution.

“There is currently no refuge from these threats,” the Fish and Wildlife Service said in its Monday decision.

The agency said results from numerous studies showed whitebark suffering “a substantial and pervasive decline throughout almost the entire range of the species.”

Whitebark pine are found in Montana, Wyoming, Idaho, California, Oregon, Washington and western Canada.

Authorities in Canada determined the tree was endangered there last year.

Nicholas said it was difficult to precisely quantify the decline given the expansive range of the tree. But studies provide a series of similar snapshots: 57 percent of the trees gone from the Canadian Rocky Mountains, 70 percent from the area around Yellowstone National Park and 60 percent from Glacier National Park.

Louisa Wilcox with the Nat-

ural Resources Defense Council, the plaintiff in last year’s lawsuit, said Monday’s finding should spur government agencies to take new steps to restore whitebark pine stands before they are wiped out.

“This is a red flag that whitebark is in trouble,” Wilcox said.

Efforts to protect remaining stands of whitebark pine already are under way. The U.S. Forest Service has tried treating trees in some areas with a pheromone that drives away hungry pine beetles. Also holding promise is the development of seedlings resistant to blister rust.

Yet halting the trend of decline among the overall population will be difficult given the scale of the die-off, Nicholas said.

“You could save some trees, you could protect some pretty localized areas with that pheromone as far as the beetles go, but you’re not going to be able to do it on a major, landscape scale,” she said.

The Fish and Wildlife Service will review its whitebark pine decision every year to gauge the various perils facing the trees, Nicholas said.

GOLF

CASCADE CYCLING CLASSIC

WEST COAST LEAGUE BASEBALL

Woods, caddie part ways Steve Williams, a part-time Sunriver resident, will no longer serve as caddie for Tiger Woods, The Associated Press reported Wednesday.

Williams, who has also caddied for golf greats Raymond Floyd and Greg Norman in a 33-year career, had worked as Woods’ caddie Steve Williams since 1999.

Woods had informed Williams “that he needed to make a change,” after the AT&T National tournament ended earlier this month, Williams said in a message on his website.

The parting comes after a tumultuous 18 months for Woods, who has been mired in scandal, injury and uncharacteristic poor play. During that time Woods has fallen from the world’s top-ranked golfer to No. 20 in the current World Golf Rankings.

“Given the circumstances of the past 18 months working through Tiger’s scandal, a new coach and with it a major swing change, and Tiger battling through injuries, I am very disappointed to end our very successful partnership at this time,” said Williams.

The 47-year-old Williams has been caddying for Australian tour player Adam Scott since June’s U.S. Open, a span of three tournaments.

Williams, a New Zealander, said he will continue to work for Scott.

“I have had the opportunity to work of late for Australian Adam Scott and will now caddie for him on a permanent basis,” said Williams.

The 111-mile route from Gap to Pinerolo contained five climbs, including a first-category climb to the ski resort of Sestrieres, ending with a short steep climb and treacherous descent into the Italian town.

Winner: Norwegian rider Edvald Boasson Hagen crossed the line alone after dropping his breakaway companions to finish 40 seconds ahead of Dutchman Bauke Mollema. France’s Sandy Casar took third, 50 seconds behind Boasson Hagen, who also won the sixth stage this year.

Yellow Jersey: Thomas Voeckler, of France, remains in yellow, but he lost 27 seconds to all his main rivals.

Defending champion Alberto Contador and Australian challenger Cadel Evans finished 4 minutes, 26 seconds behind Boasson Hagen, in a group that also included brothers Frank and Andy Schleck and Samuel Sanchez.

Today’s stage: The 125mile 18th stage includes three “beyond category” climbs in the race’s second half, starting with Col Angel and the Col d’Izoard, and finishing on top of the legendary Col du Galibier. The finish at 8,700 feet above sea level will be the highest in the Tour’s history.

Cesar Grajales celebrates his stage win Wednesday in the pro men’s race.

Colombia’s Cesar Grajales wins the McKenzie Pass Road Race to grab the overall lead

By Mark Morical The Bulletin

Cesar Grajales figured winning a stage was the perfect way to celebrate his country’s independence day.

Grajales, of Colombia, broke away from the field with a kilometer remaining Wednesday to win the first stage of the pro men’s Bend Memorial Clinic Cascade Cycling Classic.

The 74-mile McKenzie Pass Road Race started at Big Springs Sno-park near Santiam Pass and featured a climb up the west side of McKenzie Pass and the finishing climb up Three Creeks Road south of Sisters.

Just before the final turn into Upper Three Creek Sno-park and the finish line, Grajales pulled away from about 10 other riders to win in 2 hours, 45 minutes, 56 seconds.

The 74-mile McKenzie Pass Road Race featured the stunning green scenery of the western slopes of the Cascade Range and the lava “moonscape” features of McKenzie Pass. Riders took on two gradual climbs: the first up the switchbacking state Highway 242 and the second up Three Creeks Road to the finish at Three Creek Sno-park south of Sisters.

TODAY’S STAGE The 14-mile Skyliners Time Trial is a gradual ascent from Bend’s Summit High School west toward Tumalo Falls on Skyliners Road. At 7 miles, riders will turn around and return to Summit High. The pro men start at 10 a.m., followed by the pro women at about 11:45 a.m. (See map, Page D5)

Colorado’s Kristin McGrath takes the first stage and the overall lead with a late attack

By Mark Morical

Three Bend Elks were selected to the West Coast League’s West Division all-star team Tuesday.

Pitcher Daniel Chavez, infielder Mike Benjamin Jr. and outfielder Royce Bollinger were selected to the team, according to the WCL website.

The all-star game will be held Tuesday, July 26, in Corvallis.

The Bulletin

After racing in a breakaway with about 10 other riders for much of the day, Kristin McGrath was tired.

She was hoping to save one last attack for the end.

With 200 meters to go Wednesday in the first stage of the 2011 Bend Memorial Clinic Cascade Cycling Classic, McGrath sprinted away from three other riders to win the pro women’s race.

Her time in the 74-mile McKenzie Pass Road Race was 3 hours, 24 minutes, 44 seconds. Andrea Dvorak of the Colavita team finished second with the same time. Kathryn Donovan of SC Velo was third, two seconds back.

McGrath, racing for Peanut Butter & Co., is in the overall leader’s jersey with a total time of 3:28:40.

Watching the riders from a mile high

By Robert Husseman The Bulletin

DEE WRIGHT OBSERVATORY — As the police escort rode by in advance of a pack of speeding cyclists, 8-year-old Henry Winnenberg had a request for his father, Robert.

“Whenever the race is over,” Henry said, “let’s collect as much water bottles as we can!”

The Winnenberg family — Robert, 28, and his wife, Michelle, 27, and children Henry, Sylvia, 6, and Magnus, 5 — and the 1-yearold daughter of a family friend were among a couple hundred spectators and volunteers lining the McKenzie River Highway Wednesday in anticipation of the bikers competing in the McKenzie Pass Road Race, Stage 1 of the 2011 Bend Memorial Clinic Cascade Cycling Classic.

The Winnenbergs clapped and rang cowbells as the riders raced past. In between, the group ate a picnic lunch of pasta salad and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and took in a clear, sunny day at the 5,335-foot McKenzie Pass summit.

The Bend Elks broke open a 5-5 ballgame with eight unanswered runs to beat the Klamath Falls Gems, 13-5, in Wednesday night’s West Coast League baseball game at Vince Genna Stadium.

Bend (23-15) was outhit by Klamath Falls, 9-8, on the night, but benefited from six Gems errors and 11 walks by Gems pitchers.

The Elks scored four runs in the third inning to open a lead, but Klamath Falls (14-23) quickly answered with three runs of its own in the top of the fourth. Bend shortstop Ryan Dunn singled in second baseman Michael Benjamin Jr. in the fifth inning to give the Elks a cushion.

The Gems evened the score in the top of the sixth, as first baseman Rich Sanguinetti hit a tworun single with two outs. After that point, Klamath Falls got in its own way as Bend stormed to a big lead. The Elks scored five runs in the bottom of the sixth and three more in the eighth to seal the victory.

Benjamin went three for five with two RBIs and two runs scored and was the only Elks player with multiple hits.

Brandon Brennan earned the victory for Bend after allowing one hit in 1 1⁄3 innings of relief.

The Elks conclude their threegame series with Klamath Falls today at 6:35 p.m. at Vince Genna Stadium.

Doing a jig on the banks of the Sandy

R

odney Smith handed a carton of sand shrimp back to Miriam, his almost 5-yearold daughter. She poked at them as they tried to pinch her. “I love these guys,” she said.

We had an hour and a half before my speaking engagement at the Sandy Airport. It was a 10minute walk down through the forest. High with snowmelt, but otherwise clear for the Sandy River, we had one hole to work — a fast run with a bit of soft water at our feet. In the middle of the river, three submerged boulders split the tea-colored current. Downstream there was a tail-out where the river broke into whitewater.

Early July, there could be chinook in the soft water, perhaps fresh steelhead in the tail-out.

Miriam held court on the bank behind us and exercised authority over the sand shrimp and a bag of saltwater taffy.

S B Football • 75 NFL retirees sue league over concussions: Seventy-five former players are suing the National Football League, claiming the league concealed information about the danger of concussions for decades. The negligence and liability suit filed Tuesday in Los Angeles Superior Court lists Raymond Clayborn, Ottis Anderson and Mark Duper as plaintiffs, among others. Most players listed their wives as co-plaintiffs. The suit alleges the NFL knew as early as the 1920s of the harmful effects of concussions and claims that information was concealed from coaches, trainers, players and the public until June 2010. NFL spokesman Greg Aiello says the league hasn’t seen the suit but would “vigorously” contest any claims of that kind.

• Ivy League to limit full-contact workouts: In an effort to reduce the number of concussions and subconcussive hits, Ivy League football teams will be allowed to have just two full-contact practices a week, three less than the NCAA allows. The league announced Wednesday that the presidents of its eight schools have accepted a series of recommendations made by a special committee that put the Ivy League in a leadership role in trying to limit concussive hits in football.

• Tackle Kris Jenkins retires: Former Jets defensive tackle Kris Jenkins has announced his retirement after his past two seasons were cut short by serious knee injuries.

Jenkins, released by New York in February, said Wednesday on his Facebook page that he is “going to hang up the cleats!” Jenkins, who will be 32 on Aug. 3, had said when he was cut that he still wanted to play. In making the announcement, the four-time Pro Bowl selection says his mind is “always willing to play, but my body deserves the rest.”

Volleyball • Eastern Oregon University coach killed: The head volleyball coach at Eastern Oregon University has been killed in a two-vehicle crash near Ritzville, Wash. Washington State Patrol Trooper Shawn Pichette says Hailey Pearce, 25, of LaGrande, was traveling the speed limit of 70 mph when she drove into the back of a pickup. Two Central Oregon players are currently on Eastern Oregon’s roster: Crook County graduates Kaitlyn Duncan and Jessica Lea.

Skiing • Miller still passionate in 15th World Cup season: Five-time Olympic medalist Bode Miller says he’s no longer in search of the perfect run yet remains passionate about making skiing more popular for future generations.

The 33-year-old Miller talked Wednesday at an annual summit of U.S. Ski and Snowboard Association sponsors and suppliers in Park City, Utah. He made it clear the sport needs to use new technology so that more than just crashes resonate with the viewing public. Miller is gearing up for his 15th World Cup racing season.

Basketball • Yao officially retires: The NBA’s version of the Ming Dynasty is done. After helping pro basketball gain a foothold in the world’s most populous market, Chinese star Yao Ming has retired. Yao made it official Wednesday, telling a packed news conference in his hometown of Shanghai that a series of foot and leg injuries forced him to end his playing career at the age of 30. “I will formally end my career,” said Yao, the 7-foot-6 center who became a household name in China before starting his NBA career with the Houston Rockets as the top draft pick in 2002.

Yao played eight seasons in the NBA, but missed 250 regular-season games over the past six years.

CYCLING: TOUR DE FRANCE

Norwegian wins Stage 17; Voeckler holds lead

By Naomi Koppel The Associated Press

PINEROLO, Italy — Edvald Boasson Hagen, of Norway, won the 17th stage of the Tour de France on Wednesday, the first of three days in the Alps, while Thomas Voeckler retained the yellow jersey but lost time after riding off course on the final descent.

Defending champion Alberto Contador made repeated attempts to get away from his rivals, but was caught on each occasion. He finished in the same time as Cadel Evans, the Schleck brothers and Samuel Sanchez.

Voeckler lost 27 seconds and is 1 minute, 18 seconds ahead of Evans.

The 2010 Giro d’Italia champion Ivan Basso also lost time.

Boasson Hagen completed the 111 miles across the Alps from Gap to the Italian town of Pinerolo in 4 hours, 18 minutes. Bauke Mollema, of the Netherlands, was second, 40 seconds back, with Sandy Casar, of France, winning the sprint for third.

Voeckler went too fast on a hairpin turn, skidded onto the shoulder of the forested Alpine road, then raced back to try to catch Contador and Sanchez after they sped by.

“It’s a pity, because I saw that Contador, Evans and the Schlecks finished together. If I’d taken fewer risks, I would have finished with them,” he said.

The high-speed pursuit led to another mishap in which he jumped a curb, rolled into a small car park and almost crashed.

“It was a fraction of a second, but it seemed like an eternity. I closed

Edvald Boasson Hagen, of Norway, crosses the finish line to win the 17th stage of the Tour de France in Pinerolo, Italy, Wednesday. my eyes and lifted the front wheel and when I opened my eyes, I was still on the bike,” Voeckler said. “So I said, ‘OK, here we go: U-turn and back to the race.’ ” Contador was not downhearted by his failure to get away.

“I felt good, and you’ve got to try,” he said. He didn’t want to talk about the stages to come.

Boasson Hagen recorded his second stage win and the fourth overall for Norway in this year’s race.

“It was very difficult yesterday, and today I was able to do better,” Boasson Hagen said. “I felt I was capable of attacking on the last climb.”

Mollema was second after Frenchman Jonathan Hivert crashed on the

perilous final descent of the Pramartino. Hivert got back on his bike and came in ninth.

Boasson Hagen praised the large contingent of Norwegian fans that has been supporting him and Hushovd throughout the race.

“It’s really great to see all the Norwegian flags and Norwegian people around the course. It gives some extra power.”

Evans becomes more of a favorite for the title with every day he keeps his advantage of nearly two minutes over Contador.

“With shadows and stuff it was real hard to see. Voeckler ran off the road in front of me — twice I think.

It makes you take things more cau-

tiously. You don’t ever want to lose time to anyone,” the Australian said.

“I’ve got a good advantage over Alberto now, but Alberto has shown in years gone by what he can do when he’s really at his top.”

Britain’s Mark Cavendish came in 166th of the 169 finishers, more than 14 minutes behind Boasson Hagen, but still held on to the green jersey for the best sprinter after four victories in the flat stages. Six of his HTC-Columbia teammates nursed him through to the end.

The second of the three Alpine stages today includes three climbs that are so steep they aren’t even given a category. It ends with the 14.2-mile climb of the famed Col du Galibier. The full stage is 125 miles, starting at Pinerolo.

Also Wednesday, Russian team Katusha confirmed that rider Alexandr Kolobnev’s backup sample tested positive for a banned masking agent.

Kolobnev became the first rider in this year’s Tour to fail a doping control when his urine sample taken after the fifth stage had traces of hydrochlorothiazide, a diuretic that can hide the presence of other drugs.

Kolobnev was in 69th place when he left the race before the 10th stage.

Katusha said Kolobnev is suspended until the Russian cycling federation holds a disciplinary hearing.

He faces a two-year suspension.

Kolobnev was given the bronze medal in the 2008 Beijing Olympics road race after the original bronze medalist, Davide Rebellin of Italy, was found guilty of doping.

NFL deal still lacking final approval

Shin looking for another win at Evian Masters

By Judy Battista New York Times News Service

ATLANTA — The byzantine, often inscrutable negotiations toward a new NFL labor agreement took another surprising turn Wednesday when players, with a draft of the settlement in their hands in Washington, gave only a conditional recommendation for approval contingent on the negotiation of a few final terms, according to two people involved in the players’ actions.

The players also gave a vote of confidence to DeMaurice Smith, leader of the players’ association, and the players’ executive committee to negotiate the remaining points to settle the antitrust litigation that is part of the deal.

But there was no final signing off on the agreement that would end the lockout, although a vote could be taken by conference call today.

Many player representatives left Washington on Wednesday afternoon. Among the issues still believed to be in play: the players’ demand for $320 million that owners did not have to pay in benefits during the 2010 season.

Players could also still be seeking a limit on the number of times owners may put so-called franchise tags on players to once in their careers.

Another factor in the delay, said one person, is that because many of the details of the negotiations were held so close to the vest for so long, some player representatives were learning of them for the first time Wednesday and had questions they wanted addressed.

When one player who has been directly involved in negotiations was asked about the holdup, he said that players did not have a final deal to vote on, adding that there were “moving parts.” When asked if it was possible to finish off the settlement by today, he responded, “Anything is possible.”

With members of the owners’ negotiating committee meeting here and preparing for a vote of the ownership today, the delay in a final vote by players on the settlement caused concern privately among league officials.

“Not good,” one of them said.

But publicly, Jeff Pash, the NFL’s general counsel and lead negotiator for this deal, said he remained cautiously optimistic that a deal could be completed and ratified by both sides today. He said that league and player representatives had spoken throughout the day Wednesday and that he expected them to keep talking Wednesday night. And Pash seemed to suggest subtly that it was time to make a deal without further delay.

“We’ve worked well together over the past several weeks,” Pash said. “The staffs and the attorneys have been making a lot of progress on the documentation on the language issue. It’s obviously a complicated agreement, but I think both sides are at the point where they can close, they should close, and we should be in a position to take votes.”

Pash also held out the possibility that owners could vote first today, before players give their final approval, a decision that — considering owners are expected to approve the deal — would put public pressure on players to sign off on the deal so football can resume operations.

With the clock ticking toward the start of training camps at the end of the month, Pash, perhaps applying more pressure, also indicated that the Hall of Fame Game, scheduled for Aug. 7, is in peril.

“It’s getting pretty tight,” Pash said. “It would be pretty challenging. That’s one of the things we’ll have to focus on.”

It is unlikely that the entire deal is in jeopardy over these final few issues; the economic structure for the league, the heart of the negotiation, was set several weeks ago, but the delay over ancillary issues sets up today as a day of reckoning. Both sides could end up voting on a settlement that would end the labor standoff. Or the sides could find themselves in a final stare-down to determine who will give in to reach a final deal.

With training camps scheduled to open next week, members of the league’s labor committee met for five hours, spending part of their time going over the calendar for how business will reopen.

If an agreement is ratified today, the league will have a seminar for team executives to brief them on the new rules, and free agency could begin next week.

EVIAN-LES-BAINS, France — Defending champion Jiyai Shin is still looking for her best form and first title of the year entering the Evian Masters.

Shin birdied the 18th hole to win in dramatic style last year, becoming the first South Korean to capture the event.

The 23-year-old Shin maintains she will be confident when play starts today.

“Actually, last year, before this week, before Evian, I didn’t win,” Shin said. “I think it’s time to win. I know a lot of my fans (are) waiting, and I’m also waiting for the win.”

Shin finished second at the ShopRite LPGA Classic last month and was runner-up at the Kia Classic in March, where she lost to Sandra Gal after the German sank a twofoot birdie putt on the final hole.

Otherwise, Shin’s best was an eighth place at the LPGA State Farm Classic and a tie for 10th at the U.S. Open.

“I think I played well, just a little bit up and down,” Shin said. “Just my putting, sometimes my putting doesn’t work. But I’m practicing a lot, so maybe the good feeling is coming.”

Shin faces a strong field, including Ai Miyazato of Japan.

She earned her first LPGA Tour victory at the Evian Masters in 2009 and finished sixth at the recent U.S. Open.

“I played very good at the U.S. Open, and my confidence is coming back,” Miyazato said. “I’m feeling good, I’m in good shape.”

Two years ago, Miyazato clinched the Evian Masters with a birdie on the first sudden-death playoff hole, beating Sophie Gustafson of Sweden.

“I have such a great memory from this tournament. I can’t believe it’s already two years,” Miyazato said.

Evian Masters fifth major on LPGA Tour in 2013 The Evian Masters in France will become the fifth major on the LPGA Tour starting in 2013.

Tournament chairman Franck Riboud said the tournament will be moved to the second week of September in 2013.

The Evian Masters began in 1994, when Sweden’s Helen Alfredsson won the event.

“It will be the last one of the year and we are very proud of that,” Riboud said, adding that the tournament will change its name and be called the Evian Championship when it becomes a major.

Players had to put up with drizzly rain and muggy conditions as they practiced on Wednesday.

“It’s so cold and rainy. Feels like it’s Scotland,” Shin said.

“But hopefully no rain in the next few days.”

Meanwhile, Michelle Wie hopes to find some form in Evian.

Wie, who finished 55th at the U.S. Open, has not finished in the top three since she was runner-up to Yani Tseng at the LPGA Thailand in February.

Wie rebuffs recent claims by Hall of Famer Annika Sorenstam that she has become distracted by getting her degree at Stanford. Speaking during the U.S. Open this month, Sorenstam even questioned whether Wie is “mentally strong enough to finish at the top” of the game.

“I want to win majors, I want to win tournaments, and I’m working very hard at that. Right now that’s my No. 1 goal,” Wie said. “And even if I’m at school, you know, I don’t go to school full time.”

Jiyai Shin, of South Korea, is looking to win the Evian Masters again this year.

Langer set to defend Senior British Open title

By Steve Douglas The Associated Press

WALTON ON THE HILL, England — After struggling in the rain-swept British Open, Bernhard Langer hopes he’s back in his element in the senior version on a course that holds fond memories.

Trying to regain his form following thumb surgery, Langer missed the cut last week at wet and windy Royal St. George’s, shooting 75-73. Conditions should be more benign this week when he tries to defend his Senior British Open title on the tree-lined Walton Heath course, just south of London.

Langer made his Ryder Cup debut at the course in 1981.

“I was fortunate enough to play in a couple of European Opens at Walton Heath before making my first Ryder Cup appearance there in 1981, and I loved it straightaway,” Langer said. “It’s parkland, but with a links look and feel to it. I enjoy the heathland, the trees and the bunkering. All in all, it’s a great inland course.

“I haven’t been back for quite a number of years, so I’m very excited to defend my Senior Open title there. My Ryder Cup debut was obviously a memo-

rable part of my life ... It was the start of my love affair with the Ryder Cup.” The 53-year-old Langer beat American Corey Pavin by a shot to win at Carnoustie last year and won the U.S. Senior Open the following week in the state of Washington.

“To fly straight to the West Coast of America for the U.S. Senior Open, with an eighthour time change, and manage to win was quite a ride,” Langer said. “It was a special two weeks in my career. Majors were elusive on the regular tour, so to win two senior majors in a row was a great feeling.”

Tom Watson is bidding for a record fourth Senior British Open title, after wins in 2003, ’05 and ’07. He won the Senior PGA Championship in May and tied for 22nd last week in the British Open. The 62-yearold Watson had a hole-in-one at Royal St. George’s.

“I didn’t make a double bogey the entire week, and I had a hole-in-one. I’ll remember that for a long time,” Watson said.

Nick Price is making his first appearance in the event.

“It’s the one senior major you really want to win,” Price said.

THE BULLETIN • Thursday, July 21, 2011 D5

Rob Kerr / The Bulletin

The pro men’s peloton races along U.S. Highway 20 Wednesday morning west of Santiam Pass during the first stage of the Cascade Cycling Classic.

Men Continued from D1 “Today is independence day in Colombia, so it’s a good way to celebrate,” said Grajales, whose home country declared its independence from Spain 201 years ago Wednesday.

Grajales’ teammate on Realcyclist.com, Spaniard Francisco Mancebo, finished second, five seconds behind.

Alex Howes of the Chipotle

Development Team was third, also five seconds back.

Bend’s Ian Boswell finished fourth, seven seconds behind.

Grajales also rode his way into the overall leader’s jersey with an overall time of 2:49:29.

Mancebo is second overall, five seconds behind his teammate.

Howes is third, 12 seconds back.

Boswell is seventh overall, 25 seconds behind Grajales.

Grajales, who lives in Atlanta, said he recently returned

to his hometown of Manizales, Colombia, which sits at an elevation of about 7,000 feet in the mountainous central region of the country.

“It’s hard to come from Atlanta (elev. about 1,000 feet) to the altitude (the McKenzie Pass summit is at 5,335 feet), so I went and spent some time in my home city in Colombia, training in high altitude,” Grajales said. “I just came back last week. I guess all that work down there is paying off. I’m

really happy that I finally got a stage win.”

Grajales, 38, finished second overall in the 2005 CCC, holding the leader’s jersey for one day but losing it after the time trial. He said that until Wednesday, that was the last time he wore the leader’s jersey in a stage race.

“I lost the time trial by 11 seconds — I will never forget that,” he recalled.

The Realcyclist.com team is in good position now, with riders in the top two overall spots.

Mancebo has won the overall title at four major road races this season.

On the descent down McKenzie Pass Wednesday, four riders broke away to gain a one-minute lead on the peloton. But by the bottom of the final climb in Sisters, the field was all together again.

Riders jockeyed for position as the grade steepened up Three Creeks Road.

“It was sketchy at the beginning, because everybody wanted to be in the front, and the road was really bumpy,” Grajales said. “Attacks were coming and going. I followed different moves, and I was just waiting for the right time, not wanting to go too early like I did last year.”

Grajales made his move with 1K to go, building a five-second gap and holding it to the finish.

Boswell and his TrekLivestrong team were also heavily involved in the tactics up the final climb.

“We had the whole team up front into the base of the climb,” said Boswell, 20. “And we had four guys lining out up to the steep part of the climb.”

As other riders faded, Boswell, who was fifth in the McKenzie stage last year, held on for fourth place.

“I really like this stage,” Boswell said. “I know it really well. It helps a ton to know when it flattens off, and when you can dig a little bit deeper. I love racing at home; it makes it a lot easier.”

Boswell lost a teammate on Wednesday: Australian Dale Parker, who got the worst of a 20-rider crash on a descent during which riders reached 65 mph early in the race. Parker’s injuries appeared to be minor, but he did not finish the race.

The Cascade continues today with the 14-mile Skyliners Time Trial, starting and finishing at Bend’s Summit High School.

Women Continued from D1 Dvorak is second, 17 seconds behind, and Erinne Willock of Team Tibco is third, 22 seconds back.

“I think we were all spent,” said McGrath, 28 and of Durango, Colo. “I knew I had one last attack or sprint, so I wanted to save it for the end. I’m stoked to win this stage. It was a goal coming into this. I got third here (in the McKenzie stage) a couple years ago (in 2009).”

Wednesday’s stage started at Maxwell Sno-park near Santiam Pass and featured a climb up the west side of McKenzie Pass and the finishing climb up Three Creeks Road south of Sisters.

A breakaway of 11 riders — which included McGrath, Dvorak, Donovan and Willock — created a gap up the first climb.

Their lead on the field surged to nearly four minutes, and they would not be caught.

So the question became: Who would attack on the final climb up Three Creeks Road? The answer was Dvorak, who made her move with about five kilometers left and stayed clear until about 1K remaining.

McGrath got the best of Dvorak on the finishing left turn into Upper Three Creek Sno-park.

“There were four of us that were kind of playing cat and mouse into the finish,” Dvorak said. “My plan was to attack into this last turn, but Kristin McGrath just beat me to it.”

McGrath said she anticipated Dvorak’s move, adding that she had enough left to counter it.

“She had a decent gap, but the way I’m going right now, I focused on steadily bringing it back,” McGrath said. “With (Kristen) Lasasso and (Kathryn Donovan), we worked steadily.

With about 2K to go, we caught her, and I stayed patient until about 200 meters to go, and won the sprint.”

McGrath had a few teammates in the breakaway who helped her save energy for the final climb and the sprint to the finish.

“My teammates in the break kept me out of the wind all day and let me sit on (their wheels) and save my legs, so it was important to pay them back for their hard work,” McGrath said.

“We have a super strong team for sure, and we also have some other cards to play. Today set us up in a good position.”

One of McGrath’s teammates, Olympic time trial gold medalist Kristin Armstrong, finished seventh in the stage, 33 seconds back, and is in sixth place overall, 32 seconds behind.

Clara Hughes of Cycling BC is fifth overall, also 32 seconds back. Hughes and Armstrong are two of the favorites to win today’s 14-mile Skyliners Time Trial, which starts and finishes at Bend’s Summit High School.

A photographer takes pictures of the pro men’s race of the Cascade Cycling Classic from atop the lava field on McKenzie Pass, Wednesday. Spectators can be seen on the Dee Wright Observatory behind him.

Watching Continued from D1 Robert Winnenberg, who moved with his family to Bend from Ohio last year, said the CCC was just part of the reason for the day trip to Dee Wright Observatory.

“We’re not really hot for the race, but we loved the scenic drive,” he said. “It’s a beautiful spot.”

Once the first riders came through, about 90 minutes after the race’s start at 10 a.m., the summit was a flurry of activity. Cycling team support members hollered out instructions and passed out food and beverages to the competitors. At the base of the observatory, water bottles were available to all cyclists in the “feed zone.”

Discarded bottles were tossed to the side of the road, available for Henry Winnenberg’s

collection.

“Feed zones are dangerous,” said Todd Berger, 37, of Bend. “There are a lot of crashes. (The competitors) try to rush to the front (of the packs) so they’re not caught.”

Berger and his friend Darren Smith, 35, of Bend, are cyclists who have competed in the past for the Bend Memorial Clinic team. On Wednesday, they were spectators and volunteers, passing out water to thirsty cyclists.

“It’s fun to watch, with all the pros coming out (for the event),” Smith said.

Dedication for the sport shone throughout the day, even among spectators.

Ron and Shirlee Evans, both 55 and of Redmond, woke up at 6 a.m. Wednesday and drove 45 minutes to Cold Springs Campground, just off the McKenzie River Highway. From there, the couple biked another 80 minutes up the highway to a spot

a few hundred feet west of Dee Wright Observatory, with a clear view of cyclists climbing the final hill before the summit.

“Traffic on the road was pretty courteous,” said Shirlee Evans. “It’s a perfect day to be out here.”

The Evanses described themselves as “cycling enthusiasts” who both competed in road and mountain bike races in their younger years. On Wednesday, they set up a pair of camping chairs, held up umbrellas to block the sun and blew whistles, rang cowbells and shouted words of encouragement as the cyclists raced by.

“We’re trying to give the whole European flavor to the thing,” Shirlee Evans said.

“We’ve been watching the Tour (de France) and we’re like, ‘We can do this.’ ” Robert Husseman can be reached at 541617-7811 or at rhusseman@bendbulletin.com.

Sandy Continued from D1 Rodney pulled on black latex gloves and opened a jar of salmon eggs. He set up a rod with pencil lead and 30 inches of fluorocarbon to a red Daiichi hook. With flo-orange yarn knotted to the egg loop, a gob of eggs and a shrimp, the bait was ready.

To my left was a bank with tree roots that pushed like gnarled fingers out of the clay. In front was the riffle with a rocky bar beyond.

My weight tapped in the rocks and the tip chattered when a smolt pecked the bait.

Rodney stepped into the river below and cast up and across.

His bait drifted outside the boulder field then pulled into the hydraulic pillow and out to the tailout. On the third cast, he swept back hard, but the rod didn’t load. He shook off the adrenaline, then checked the bait.

Crushed, destroyed. Less than 10 minutes later, he touched another fish, and it, too, stole the bait without getting pinned.

So far, it was a regular day.

My buddy gets the bites. I get snagged on a rock. When I broke it off, I turned to see what other goodies Rodney had in his backpack of tricks.

A box of jigs. I picked up a 12 1⁄2 -foot G. Loomis GL3 bait casting rod rigged with yellow braid, a sliding Salmon Stalker float to a bead chain sinker and three feet of 25-pound fluorocarbon. Rodney was skeptical.

“Have you ever caught a chinook on a jig?”

“Not that I can remember, but a lot of steelhead, silvers and pinks.”

He pointed out his favorite, a diminutive white dart with Trail Blazer red and black chenille and feathers. Looked good to me. I coaxed a sand shrimp out of its tail and tipped the hook.

With the bobber stop six feet up, I rocketed the rig upstream and guided the float through the boulder field and into the tail-out. The jig dragged, so I made an adjustment and pitched again.

Confidence. You can’t beat it.

When I have a jig rod at my fingertips, I have confidence. Not so with bait. Given enough time, every channel can be searched, divined, explored, the feathered pest presented to each fish.

If the run is six feet deep, the steelhead or salmon are likely suspended about five feet. The idea is to put the jig

Fished under a float on a drifted presentation, marabou jigs are effective for salmon and steelhead in riffed water.

just above the level of the fish’s eyes. Faced with the jig coming downstream, they have to bite or back down. The fish elevates, grabs and returns to its lie. Up above, the float goes under and pulls the jig into the corner of the fish’s mouth. The angler has about two seconds to pin it.

Below me, Rodney hooked an-

other salmon and lost it like the good host he is. He stood shaking before he re-baited.

“These spring chinook are the same strain of fish that hit the Columbia and run all the way up to Idaho,” Rodney explained. “The (hatchery) ‘upriver brights’ come up the river in May and aren’t ready to spawn

till September. Upstream, the pools fill with fish and you can catch them all summer.”

I checked my watch. Last cast? I launched it far upstream and adjusted the line as the swift water brought the float down toward the pillow piled in front of the first boulder. Another mend. I glanced at Rodney. I was going to be late if we didn’t pull out now.

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw the float jag toward me and go under. A lot of line on the water. Twelve and a half feet of graphite rod picked it up, straightened it out and pinned the jig, solid. A headshake. I slammed it again. The fish blasted upstream then back down, almost to the tail-out, where it flashed bronze at the surface.

At the end of it, Rodney danced the springer into the net. Miriam selected a beaverchewed alder stick and tapped the hatchery chinook on the head. It wasn’t the first time I’ve been late because of a fish.

FISHING REPORT Ryan Brennecke / The Bulletin

Consistent catches reported on Big Lava Lake, healthy trout on Walton Here is the weekly fishing report for selected areas in and around Central Oregon, provided by fisheries biologists for the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife:

CENTRAL ZONE ANTELOPE FLAT RESERVOIR: Anglers are still reporting good fishing for very healthy trout. Boat anglers are having more success than bank anglers because the trout are seeking deeper, cooler water as the water temperature increases.

BIG LAVA LAKE: Bait anglers are reporting consistent catches and large fish, and fly angling has been good midday.

CLEAR LAKE: Limited reports have indicated good fishing.

CRANE PRAIRIE RESERVOIR: Fishing is good, with reports of large rainbows and brook trout.

CRESCENT LAKE: Anglers have reported excellent kokanee fishing.

CROOKED RIVER BELOW BOWMAN DAM: Flows have stabilized around 300 cfs, resulting in better wading conditions (river flows near Prineville). The number of trout is down compared to the

past couple of years, but there are still plenty of trout to be caught, with fish up to 20 inches long being reported.

Part of the Big Bend Campground will be closed for construction on Bowman Dam. Contact the Bureau of Reclamation at 541-389-6541 for current information.

CULTUS LAKE: Anglers have reported improved fishing.

DESCHUTES RIVER (mouth to the Pelton Regulating Dam): Trout fishing should be good with improving weather and dropping flows. Lots of caddis and golden stoneflies are being reported.

A few reports of early summer steelhead have been received from Sherars Falls to the Columbia. The number of summer steelhead entering the lower Deschutes should increase as July progresses.

DESCHUTES RIVER (Lake Billy Chinook to Bend): Fish will concentrate in areas with cold-water input, such as springs, as summer temperatures increase. Most cold-water inputs are located below the Lower Bridge.

Anglers will find better access downstream of Lower Bridge. Rainbow trout average 10 to 16 inches, while brown trout up to 26 inches are available.

EAST LAKE: Kokanee fishing has been good in the early-morning hours.

FROG LAKE: The lake has been stocked with both legal-size and brood trout.

HAYSTACK RESERVOIR: Trout fishing will be tougher with the increasing water temperatures. Fishing will be best during the morning and evening.

HOOD RIVER: While the spring chinook season closed at the end of June, a few early returning summer steelhead have also been reported throughout the river.

HOSMER LAKE: Hosmer Lake is now accessible and fishing is good.

LITTLE LAVA LAKE: Fishing is good.

METOLIUS RIVER: Trout fishing has been good. Insect hatches should offer opportunities for good dry-fly fishing.

NORTH TWIN: Anglers have recently re-

SALEM — New rules that require youths to wear hunter orange when hunting take effect Aug. 1.

As of that date, hunters age 17 and under are required to wear a hunter (fluorescent) orange exterior garment or hat when hunting game mammals or upland game birds (except turkey) with any firearm.

Archery, turkey and migratory bird hunters are exempt from the hunter orange requirement.

(Turkey and waterfowl have excellent eyesight and wearing hunter orange could reduce

hunter success.)

The Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission adopted the new rule last year to protect youth hunters from vision-related firearm incidents. Adult hunters are also strongly encouraged to wear hunter orange when in the field.

Some controlled (limited entry) youth elk hunting seasons open Aug. 1 and general season bear and cougar will also be open that day. But most hunting seasons do not open until September or October.

For more information, visit www.dfw.state.or.us.

ODELL LAKE: Fishing for lake trout is good, and kokanee fishing is improving with warming weather. The evening bite is typically better than the early-morning bite.

PAULINA LAKE: Anglers are reporting good fishing. Contact the resort at 541-338-7869 for up-to-date conditions.

When the water is fast and the trout are opportunistic, you want a fly that won’t sink in the riffles.

Enter the Irresistible Adams. Based on one of the most popular trout dries of all time, it uses hollow deer hair for the body.

If this fly gets swamped, it will bounce right back to the top.

If it gets water-logged and fish-slimed, simply dry the fly with a swift back and

forth and get it back on the water.

Hunt a freestone creek with this pattern, working upstream from riffle to riffle.

In long slow pools, tie on an Adams. Switch back when the water is bumpy.

Tie the Irresistible Adams with black thread on a No. 1014 dry fly hook. For the tail, use black elk hair or moose.

Build the body with spun deer hair and trim it as shown. Use two grizzly hackle tips for the wings. Tie the collar with brown and grizzly hackles.

WALTON LAKE: Anglers have reported excellent fishing for very healthy trout, some exceeding 20 inches in length.

WICKIUP RESERVOIR: Fishing is good.

Anglers have been reporting success jigging and trolling for kokanee.

Wilderness area belies its name, sporting mild hiking, wildflowers

By Markian Hawryluk • The Bulletin When I read about a hike in the Black Canyon Wilderness, I envisioned a deep gorge with steep cliffs

towering above, casting a rugged trail into an eerie darkness.

Little did I know the hike would be all wildflowers, sunshine and babbling brooks.

Frankly, it was a little like buying a ticket for an Arnold Schwarzenegger movie expecting “The Terminator” and getting “Kindergarten Cop.” Nonetheless, the Black Canyon Trail is a thoroughly enjoyable hike that can be scaled to almost any interest, from a short stroll to an over-

Corrections In a story headlined “Cream of the crop,” which appeared Tuesday, July 19, on Page E1, an incorrect sentence was included in the first paragraph.

The text should have said: When Deschutes County horse breeder Carol Pshigoda first learned of the American Cream Draft Horse 27 years ago, it was “virtually extinct,” according to the American Livestock Breeds Conservancy. Since then, no one has done more to bring the breed back from oblivion.

In a story headlined “Food for the Thoughtful,” which appeared Wednesday, July 20, on Page E1, a word was omitted in a description of The Last Stand Farm’s practices. The farm’s vegetables are raised using organic practices, without chemicals or sprays.

Most people enter the canyon from the eastern end at the South Fork John Day River. But an initial river crossing can be tricky early in the season, and with this year’s record snow levels, I was reluctant to try.

yon Trail. Turn left (north) and follow the easy trail as it tracks Owl Creek.

The route drops about 1,200 feet in elevation over the next two miles, passing through a Douglas fir forest and tall green cornlilly plants. The descent never feels steep, though I can’t say the same for the return.

About 11⁄2 miles in, there’s an easily accessed campsite on the opposite side of the river, if you’re looking for an overnight site. A few large trees block the route, but the detours are easy to find.

The trail crosses Owl Creek and, shortly thereafter, Black Canyon Creek for the first of at least seven crossings. Once on the other side of the creek, you get the sense of the size of the canyon for the first time.

Snow still clinging to trails

By Lydia Hoffman The Bulletin

Popular high alpine trails still remain under snow, said Chris Sabo, U.S. Forest Service trails specialist.

With cooler temperatures over the past week, the snow line is rising slowly, Sabo said Wednesday. The snow line is around 5,800 to 6,200 feet.

The Green and Moraine Lakes trails and South Sister climber trails have increasing access, said Sabo, but are generally 60 to 70 percent snow-covered within a half mile of the trailhead. On the Green Lakes Trail, the section from Park Meadow North to Scott Pass has been cleared.

The southern area of the trail is blocked by snow within half a mile of the trailhead.

Some sections of the Pacific Crest Trail have had lim-

TRAIL UPDATE ited clearing. There is still snow blocking much of the trail from Mount Jefferson to Mount Thielsen. West of the Cascades, the snow line is about 5,200 feet.

On the Cascade Lakes Highway, all trailhead parking areas are now accessible. There is still substantial snow around Todd Lake.

There have been reports of hikers in wilderness areas losing the trail or running into other snow hazards. As a reminder, Sabo said, if you head into the wilderness, take a map, appropriate clothing and other essentials — and be prepared to turn around and follow your foot-

prints out if you meet conditions that are too difficult.

In the Three Sisters Wilderness, Canyon Creek Meadow Trail is at least 50 percent under snow and blocked by fallen trees. It could be another few weeks before the loop is clear enough for hiking.

There is still an 8- to 10-foot snow drift blocking access to Driftwood Campground at Three Creek Lake. Tam MacArthur Rim Trail is still blocked by snow from the trailhead.

Volunteers have cleared fallen trees from trails around the Quinn Meadow Horse Camp. Most of the horse trails in the area are now free of trees up to areas of patchy snow at the wilderness boundary.

ometimes names can be deceiving.

in his Eastern Oregon hiking guide suggests a back-door entrance to the canyon, from Boeing Field, just east of Mitchell.

The broad open meadow takes its name from the crash of a B-18 bomber during World War II, in which four servicemen perished.

The hike starts at a trail sign in the middle of the field resplendent with wildflowers this month. The blooms — mostly yellow balsamroot, Indian paintbrush and purple larkspur — are so thick in places, it’s hard to find the trail. Keep heading due east, however, and you’re bound to pick it up again.

From the field, a spur trail descends through the remnants of a forest fire to Owl Creek, and after an easy crossing, climbs slightly to an intersection with the Black Can-

Dessert a touchy ‘Bachelorette’s’ experience sweet, sour topic for woman

By David Hiltbrand

‘The Bachelorette’

The Philadelphia Inquirer

Dear Abby: When I go out to eat with my girlfriends, I usually enjoy myself until it comes time for dessert. Then I get grief if I don’t order any. They’ll say, “Oh, you’re so tiny. You can eat it.” Conversely, if I do order something, they tell me, “Well, I’d love some but my metabolism isn’t as high as yours.”

I have never commented about calorie counting, needing to work out or concern about my weight.

Fitness is a private matter and I’m not comfortable with mine being the topic of discussion. Is there any way to respectfully respond to their comments or redirect the conversation?

— Takes the Cake in Flagstaff, Ariz.

Dear Takes the Cake: The way you said it in your letter is perfect: “Fitness is a private matter and I’m not comfortable with mine being the topic of discussion.” Either state it when they comment on your order, or tell each of your friends when you’re away from a restaurant. If they are friends, they’ll respect your feelings.

Dear Abby: Is it weird to not want to sleep in the same bed with my husband? We have an amazing, caring, fun relationship — but when it comes to sleep, I need my space while he prefers to cuddle all night. I always end up trying to push him over to his side, or telling him to move. I know he gets offended because he’s just trying to be close.

Abby, when I’m in bed with him I hardly get any sleep! It bothers me so much I end up sleeping on the couch.

Is this a bad sign for our marriage? Should I just stick it out for his sake?

— Needs My Space in West Valley, Utah Dear Needs Your Space: If you haven’t already done it, you and your husband should have a calm discussion about this when you’re

DEAR ABBY both wide awake and rested.

Sleep deprivation can cause any number of problems — slow reaction time behind the wheel of a car, inefficiency at work, and serious health problems. If your marriage is amazing, caring, fun and sexually satisfying for both of you, then sleeping separately isn’t a “bad sign.” It’s the solution.

Dear Abby: I am a 54-year-old woman who, after a long marriage and unavoidable divorce, is ready to date. I work out daily, am active in my church, take classes, and socialize with women and married couples. I’m in excellent shape and am told I’m attractive and fun. There are few available men my age (or a little younger or older) and almost all of them seem to be looking for women in their 40s, 30s or even 20s.

Why are men my age so unwilling to date women their age?

We’re past the drama years, are secure in who we are, and have a lot to offer. Am I destined to spend my life without romance? I’m an upbeat person but have lately started feeling angry at how I’m being marginalized.

— Missing Out in Wyoming Dear Missing Out: I can’t speak for “all” older men, but many of them in our youth-obsessed culture look for women considerably younger because it helps them fool themselves into thinking they are younger than their years. You are physically, socially and intellectually active, so stop allowing yourself to be marginalized and consider dating men who are younger.

PHILADELPHIA — Not many dental students are hounded by paparazzi. Then there’s Ashley Hebert.

“They wait outside my apartment for when I leave in the morning, and they wait outside school for when I go home,” says the petite 26-yearold, who has almost completed her degree at the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine.

Hebert has become a tabloid obsession because of her emotional turn as the queen bee on the current season of “The Bachelorette.”

There are countless stories purporting to reveal the results of her agonizing on-air pursuit of Mr. Right.

“Before all this, when I would read magazines like In Touch, I would assume the stories had a little truth to them,” she says. “Now I know they’re completely inaccurate.”

Her TV experiences this year, first as one of the semifinalists on “The Bachelor,” now as the rose-dispenser on the seventh season of “The Bachelorette,” have taken a toll on the small-town girl from northernmost Maine.

‘Trusting everybody’ “On the show you’ll see me trusting everybody,” she says.

“That’s always been my default position. Now I feel like I’m jaded. I think I’ve learned a lot about people, but it’s kind of a sad thing.”

The season, which finished taping two months ago, now seems headed for a satisfying climax. On Monday’s episode, Hebert traveled for dates in the hometowns of the four remaining suitors. In the case of Ames, a native of Chadds Ford, Pa., that means a carriage ride along the Brandywine. (Nevertheless, Ashley

Harrison says. “It’s an entertainment show, first and foremost.

There’s a fine line of being overly salacious and sensational.”

Hebert frets that her image has been distorted.

‘A lot of good things’

University of Pennsylvania dental student and ABC “Bachelorette” Ashley Hebert sees herself as emotionally transparent. sent Ames packing.)

But Hebert’s image still hasn’t quite recovered from the show’s turbulent start. There was her blind devotion to Bentley, an utter cad who was callously toying with her emotions just to get camera time.

Then there was the disastrous episode in which the men were asked to “roast” Ashley at a comedy club.

That resulted in nasty insult jokes like “You’re actually the first girl I’ve ever dated with a smaller chest than me” and “I thought I was signing up to be with Emily or Chantal, and then Ashley is here.”

Web critics Hebert’s emotional responses to those public humiliations made her an Internet dartboard.

“She has the lowest self-esteem.

My girlfriend says it’s lower than a floor mat,” says Melissa Locker,

a recapper for the Television Without Pity website. “I mean she’s an Ivy Leaguer with a professional career. She teaches Jazzercise.

She should have self-esteem coming out of her ears. Instead, she’s on the phone crying about guys who treated her badly.”

Hebert finds those perceptions offensive.

“Despite what people believe, I’m actually pretty secure in myself,” she says.

One of her biggest supporters is Chris Harrison, host of the “Bachelorette” franchise.

“She’s an intelligent, witty, very bright professional woman with great charisma and charm,” he says. “I think up until now she’s been unfairly judged because of Bentley and some other events.

I’ve seen this happen before with Ali (Fedotowsky, of Season 6).”

He seems to be saying Hebert isn’t a pushover; she’s just edited to look that way.

“Look, it’s not a documentary,”

“There’s a lot of good things happening too,” she says. “You don’t see much of that. You only see what sucks people in.”

Hebert concedes she has mishandled the Sadie Hawkins role at times.

“I don’t know that I have made a good Bachelorette. In a way, I think I’m too honest. If I’m not into somebody, I have a hard time faking it, and I think in this environment, you have to be able to do that sometimes.”

In fact, Hebert feels she is so transparent that viewers should already be able to tell what her ultimate decision will be.

“I knew where my heart was from very early on,” she says.

“I wanted to give every guy a chance but by the time of the hometown dates, I was probably 95 percent sure.”

The online “Bachelorette” oracles are predicting that her choice will come down to Ben F. or J.P. But Hebert pointedly holds out a third option: She could emulate Season 3’s Jennifer Schefft and choose no one.

Whatever it is, has her final choice (the finale, which takes place in Fiji, airs Aug. 1) made her happy?

“Absolutely,” she says.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Thursday, July 21, 2011: This year, you greet many new possibilities professionally.

However, putting so much effort into work or community commitments will take away from your personal life. A family member could feel sad and neglected. Do your best to juggle your time and attention. You also might decide to set up a home office to help. Some of you will be investing in real estate as well. If you are single, you meet people easily, as you have a high profile.

In such a changeable period, the person you choose today could be different from the one you would choose later. If you are attached, do your best to bring your sweetie into your outside activities. ARIES knows how to get you motivated.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHHH If someone rains on your parade, it might not be intentional.

Fatigue could mark your decisions early on. Go for a walk, have a cup of coffee or whatever you need to perk up. Tonight: On a roll.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HH Your instinct might be to cocoon. Actually, if you can afford to take some much-needed time off, by all means, do so. Look to reorganizing what needs to be done. Simplify, please. Tonight: Easy continues to work.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH Know where you want to go. Choose your companions

with care, as there could be some fallout. Examine your goals during a meeting of associates. Are you able to do what you want?

Expand your circle of friends.

Tonight: Think “early weekend.”

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH Take a stand and do whatever is needed. Fatigue surrounds a domestic issue. You simply might not want to hear about it anymore, or at least until you see a resolution ahead. Assume responsibility gracefully. Tonight: Could go late.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH You might want to open up and explore other options.

When you hit an obstacle, turn around and look for a different path. Creativity opens up many doors that you normally would not try to open. Try detaching to get a complete perspective.

Tonight: Take in new vistas.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH You might want to reevaluate a situation more carefully involving a key partnership and/or funds. No matter how sure you are that you have looked at all the risks and outcomes, you haven’t. Events will let you know otherwise. Tonight: Togetherness.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH You could be inadvertently raining on someone’s parade. It could be your attitude, and it will have long-term implications that you really don’t want. Allow others with a better attitude to take the lead.

Tonight: Say “yes” to a suggestion.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Understand what you are saying and what you mean.

Someone you like to work with could be so enthusiastic that you cannot seem to get a suggestion in. Let this person go ahead. Go off and do something different.

Tonight: Put your feet up and relax.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH One person might say “yes” while another says “no.” In a situation like this, you might want to look at the common thread between these two, or go off and do what you want. Tonight: Brainstorm with a loved one. Make weekend plans.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH Realize you can say what you want, but know that ultimately your attitude could define a situation far more than you think. You might not be able to put off dealing with an emotional issue or a situation around your home much longer.

Tonight: Head home. Get some rest.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH Breeze through your morning, making sure to take that extra moment or two to check in and find out how others are.

News from a distance might not be forthcoming. Keep trying to get more information, and refuse to jump to conclusions.

Tonight: Hang out.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHH A partner definitely nixes an idea, which might leave you in limbo. You have strong feelings about directions and choices. You might want to proceed anyway if you feel that strongly. Could there be a midpoint of agreement?

Tonight: Buy a small gift for a loved one on the way home. © 2010 by King Features Syndicate

Planning vacations around marathons

The second river crossing heading southeast on Black Canyon Trail is a good place to rest or turnaround.

Black Canyon Continued from E1 Although the cleft in the land here is a thousand feet deep, the slopes on each side rise gently, finishing in rolling hills dotted by snags. What it lacks in grandeur, it makes up for with pastoral beauty.

The path splits from the creek here, taking a high traverse across the northern slope of the canyon for another mile and a half, while the creek flows down the lush, green bottom of the divide. The trail here is somewhat rocky and in places the high vegetation makes it difficult to see where you’re placing your foot.

After nearly four miles from the trailhead, the path crosses Black Canyon Creek again, requiring some fancy footwork over logs and rocks to keep your feet dry.

The second crossing is a good spot for a rest and a snack, and enough of a destination to feel that you can turn around and head back. If you care to venture on, the trail meanders back and forth across the creek another five times over the next mile.

According to Sullivan, the path then stays on the north side of the creek for more than four miles. Then it begins to jump back and forth across the river with another 10 get-your-feetwet crossings in the final two

Trails Continued from E1 In the Crescent Ranger District, the loop between Pretty and Fawn lakes has been cleared. Road access to Summit Lake is likely still blocked by snow, Sabo said.

Newberry Crater trails are undergoing maintenance. The Newberry Rim Trail still has substantial snow. The Paulina Peak road is expected to be blocked by snow for two more weeks.

AUSTIN, Texas — I have a thing for running that just ain’t natural, but that’s the last of my disclaimers.

After five half-marathons and a half dozen 10Ks, I ran the ING Marathon in New York City last year.

A normal person might quit while she was ahead and check “marathon” off the bucket list. But the delirium of training gave way to a persistent idea: What would it be like to run in some of the beautiful cities in America (and elsewhere) that I had never seen?

This idea started at a race expo, where my friends had to pull me away from tables boasting brochures for races in London, Brazil and Spain before I started making international phone calls. I would not be denied.

A week after the ING race, I fixated on running a faster, prettier race. A Runner’s World Magazine feature caught my eye, and it ranked the Lake Placid Marathon and Half high on the list of scenic races because of the area’s beautiful mountains and peaceful lakes.

Nine days after the New

York marathon, I registered for the Lake Placid race and made my hotel reservations at the host hotel.

Seven months later, as the mercury rose down here, I found myself surrounded by emerald green trees and mountains still capped with snow.

But getting there was a marathon of its own. From Austin, I had to fly to Houston, from Houston to Boston and from Boston to Saranac Lake, which has to be one of the smallest airports in America. There’s only one cab company in town, and when they didn’t show up as scheduled that Friday night, the only guy left at the ticket counter offered to take me to the hotel.

A two-mile loop, away from the familiar terrain of the city’s main street, led me past the Lake Placid Club Boat House and the post office to a more secluded area on a side of the lake where cyclists and swimmers were training for the upcoming Ironman triathlon in a steady, cool rain.

The benefit of staying at the host hotel was that the restaurant offered a complimentary, all-you-can-eat carb-loading buffet dinner. I had enough scallops, garlic and pesto with my pasta to fuel me for a two-week run.

Fortunately, I only had to go 26.2 miles.

Tips for marathon travelers • Plan as far ahead as possible. If you plan to run more than one marathon in your life, the general wisdom seems to be that you should run races at least six months apart for maximum recovery.

• Look for discounts. Between the cost of registration, airfare and lodging, it can be useful to look at the marathon discounts you can get either through the host hotel or by registering early.

The earlier you sign up for races, the cheaper they are.

But airfare isn’t the same way: Try using a site like tripeedo .com, which lets you aggregate the results of travel sites like Expedia and Bing. (Bing also has a price predictor that will help you decide whether you should buy your ticket immediately or wait.)

• Schedule down time. Plan to get to your destination a few days ahead of the race so you can take in the sights, get a good feel for the place and get some stress-free shopping in before the crowds arrive for the event.

• Be prepared. Pack everything for your race you think you might need. My checklist for race day included bandages, a half-dozen packets of Gummi Bears (for glycogen), race gear and sunblock. You might add Vaseline or anti-chafing stuff.

I also had a few dry, walkingaround outfits.

Rural hospitals fall short in heart, pneumonia care

By Betsy Q. Cliff The Bulletin

Rural residents may be getting a lower quality of hospital care.

That’s the conclusion of a study published this month looking at quality measures in small, rural MONEY hospitals around the country, including Pioneer Memorial Hospital in Prineville and Mountain View Hospital in Madras.

The recent study did not look at individual hospitals and should not be taken as an indication that any specific hospital has worse quality outcomes than larger hospitals.

The American Academy of Pediatrics is warning parents that kids and energy drinks are a bad mix.

In a report published last month, the pediatric group outlined the appropriateness of sports and energy drinks for children, highlighting the potential dangers lurking in these heavily marketed products.

Sports drinks, such as M E D I C I N E Gatorade or Powerade, were discouraged for all but those participating in vigorous athletics because of the high sugar content and total calories. But the report said stimulantcontaining energy drinks, such as Red Bull, Monster or Rockstar, posed significant risks for children and adolescents.

Next week Madras planning a new hospital.

Study Continued from F1 But overall, the study found that patients hospitalized for heart attack, heart failure or pneumonia were more likely to die within 30 days of admission at a small, rural hospital and that those hospitals were less likely to follow recommended procedures for care.

For example, at rural hospitals, about one in four patients died from heart attack versus one in six at non-rural centers.

These patients got recommended procedures for care 91 percent of the time in rural hospitals and 98 percent of the time in non-rural ones.

Dr. Karen Joynt, lead author of the paper and a physician at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, said she wanted the study to highlight the challenges rural hospitals face.

“What I don’t want people to take from this paper is that they are bad hospitals,” Joynt said.

“We can use research like this to help us understand (that) we as a health care community are letting these hospitals down.”

Joynt said rural residents were also being let down. “No one should have to choose between living in a rural area and having good health care.”

Local quality The hospitals in Prineville and Madras said the paper’s conclusions were not correct for them.

“Just because we’re small doesn’t mean that we’re not providing as good a care as the bigger hospitals,” said Karen McGuire, chief nursing officer at Pioneer Memorial.

At Mountain View, “our focus on quality is as robust as any other hospital, whatever size,” said Joe Smith, the hospital’s interim CEO. The recent study looked specifically at hospitals like Mountain View and Pioneer Memorial, known as critical access hospitals. The designation, acquired through government certification, is given to hospitals that have no more than 25 beds, are located at least 35 miles from the nearest other hospital, meet other routine requirements, and seek the designation. Small, rural hospitals do not have to become critical access hospitals, though many do because they can boost their reimbursement from federal programs such as Medicare or Medicaid.

There are about 1,300 critical access hospitals in the United States, including 25 in Oregon. Because so many rural hospitals are critical access hospitals, experts generally think information collected about them can be applied to rural hospitals in general.

Quality can be hard to measure, particularly for rural hospitals that don’t have as many patients as larger hospitals.

There is much less data on the quality at both rural hospitals in Central Oregon than on St. Charles Bend, which discharges about 15,000 patients per year, compared with about 1,000 at each of the small, rural hospitals.

Study questions the benefits of robotic surgery The Baltimore Sun Hospitals may be misleading their patients about the superiority of robotic surgery over conventional surgery, according to new research from Johns Hopkins.

Robotic surgery is the latest high-tech thing, and many facilities are investing heavily in equipment that they then tout on their websites. But much of the information and images are provided by the manufacturers, said Dr. Marty Makary, an associate professor of surgery at Hopkins’s School of Medicine and the study leader.

Four in 10 hospital websites out of 400 analyzed were publicizing the use of robotic surgery for minimally invasive surgery, and most said it’s better, though there have been no randomized, controlled studies, Makary said.

And the hospitals don’t even say to what surgery the robotics are being compared.

VITAL STATS Cost of treating complications The cost of treating medical complications is high, and reducing complications through quality initiatives has been proposed as a way to lower overall health care costs. Below are the costs in 2009 of procedures done to treat complications at some hospitals in Oregon.

typically use an electronic medical record that prompts a physician to order a recommended test and then records it when he or she does. Neither Pioneer Memorial or Mountain View have electronic health records.

— Joe Smith, Mountain View Hospital interim CEO

Small hospitals, big challenges

The data that is available, which comes from the federal government, show mixed results for local hospitals. In measures known as processes of care — whether recommended patient care steps were taken — Mountain View scored below the national average in about twothirds of the areas measured.

Pioneer Memorial scored below the national average about onefourth of the time.

Pioneer is working on all of the process of care measures, said McGuire. She specifically cited the pneumonia measures, where Pioneer scored below average half the time.

McGuire cited other quality initiatives under way at the hospital as well, including reducing medication errors, reducing patient falls and implementing checklists to improve surgical safety and heart failure care.

At Mountain View, “we’ve made significant improvements with our data since that was reported,” said Tammy Wilson, chief nursing officer at that hospital. “We recognized that we have improvement that was needed.”

Smith said that documenting outcomes, such as whether patients were given recommended medications or tests, is one of the challenges rural hospitals face.

“We have to rely on people to do a good job,” he said. “We don’t have a lot of back-up systems.”

For example, larger hospitals

Rural hospitals face a number of challenges that may not be familiar to their more urban counterparts.

“They are frequently more fragile financially, so they don’t have the resources to invest in new technology,” said Dr. Martin Lipsky, a professor at the University of Illinois College of Medicine at Rockford.

Lipsky said it can be hard to recruit physicians to rural areas, not to mention the ancillary staff needed to run a hospital. Electronic health records, he said, are a huge investment of money and expertise. “How many IT people want to move to smaller towns?”

Lipsky said innovations in health care are often developed in large academic medical centers without thought about whether they could be adopted in small, rural areas. Interventions that take huge teams of people or specialized equipment, for example, may not work for rural hospitals. “You have to be able to translate it into all settings,” he said.

Smith said Mountain View has many of those challenges, particularly in recruiting new staff, but it has advantages as well.

“Our management team is closer to the patients’ bedside than in a larger hospital, so we have a better understanding of what’s going on in the nursing units.”

McGuire said Pioneer Memorial has previously had trouble recruiting physicians, but that’s not true now.

Another challenge having

nothing to do with the hospital is that rural populations are often less healthy than their urban counterparts. Rural residents tend to be older, poorer and more likely to smoke.

That may make it even more crucial that the hospitals do a good job. “They fill this huge need in rural communities,” said Lipsky. “They do wellness, they do prevention, they support seniors, their facilities are resources.

That’s why they’re critical.”

F Disabled Continued from F1 Groza said he wasn’t particularly athletic before the accident, but he has a strong serve on the court. Mostly, he enjoys getting out, meeting people and moving his body.

“It’s something I can do,” he said.

Hill said he was raised by an athletic dad who instilled the value of fitness in him, so he has always been active and competitive. Hill, who has spina bifida, has been in a wheelchair since middle school. He wheelchair raced when he was younger, living in California. He’s played basketball, dabbled in football, and now prefers wheelchair tennis. “I can do anything I put my mind to,” he said.

The biggest challenge to getting exercise, he said, is getting to the events. Hill, who lives with his fiance and her cousin, relies on family or Dial-a-Ride to reach the sports venues. He gets exercise a couple times a week and feels much better when he does, he said. “The blood flows and I get to get out and talk to people.”

Worth the effort Evidence shows that regular physical activity for people with disabilities — as with everyone able-bodied too — improves cardiovascular and muscle fitness, improves mental health and facilitates one’s ability to manage life’s daily tasks. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services advises adults with disabilities to get at least two hours of moderate aerobic activity each week and muscle-strengthening exercise at least twice a week. Generally speaking, the department recommends that those with disabilities avoid inactivity and exercise according to their abilities.

But “it’s hard for people in wheelchairs to get the proper amount of exercise,” said 64year-old retiree John Gailey, of Sisters. “It’s harder for us to get our heart rates up for one thing, if you’re not using your legs.”

He’s been playing competitive wheelchair sports since the 1980s when his multiple sclerosis confined him to a wheelchair full time. When he moved to Central Oregon 10 years ago, he couldn’t find any wheelchair tennis players. Tennis is one wheelchair sport, unlike basketball, that he can play with able-bodied players such as his wife, he said.

When he plays with his wife, the rules of the game are generally the same, except Gailey can let the ball bounce twice before hitting it back.

Because of his previous experience playing tennis, he volunteered to help coach this particular group.

“It’s a support group,” he said.

“It’s friendship and fun.”

During tennis practice, he offers gentle advice. “Instead of slicing the backhand, try hitting up, like this,” he tells Hill, demonstrating a swing that would lob the ball over the net instead of into it.

When he’s volleying against Groza and Hill, and they’re not moving around much to chase the ball, he raises his voice, albeit kindly: “Push the chair! Push

The sport chairs — new, shiny and colorful — have cambered wheels so they spin quickly. They come with anti-tip bars in the back in case players stretch too high to return a high-flying ball.

The Bend Park & Recreation District bought these chairs recently to offer wheelchair tennis programs. the chair!”

A variety of programs Wheelchair tennis is one of the newer Bend Park & Recreation District adaptive sports programs. The park district started offering wheelchair basketball last fall, said therapeutic recreation coordinator Cheryl Kelly, who once spent nine months in a wheelchair after a stroke.

“The adapted sports program began because community members with physical disabilities wanted to be able to participate in sports and play with others who have had similar experiences,” she said. “We felt this was one area where our existing programs failed to be inclusive and the adapted sports program would fill a gap in services to the community.”

The program began with two or three participants but has reached up to 15 people. Kelly hopes more people will join the programs so she can expand the offerings.

The park district aims to get all children and adults with disabilities active. It provides inclusion support staff so children with limited mobility can join any general recreation program, offers rental exercise equipment such as hand cycles — threewheeled bikes powered with the arms — and runs water therapy programs in its pool.

Swimming feels great Seventeen years ago, Pam Anderson, an athletic, outdoorsy runner and skier, fell on a sheet of ice during a ski lesson on Mount Hood. Sliding downhill backward on her back, she hit a huge chunk of ice and crushed a vertebra. The spinal cord injury paralyzed her immediately, from the armpits down. Living in Portland and being married to a doctor at Oregon Health & Science University, she received great medical care, recovered and soon went home.

Always a fit athlete, Anderson knew she needed to stay in shape if she wanted to avoid gaining weight. A few months into her recovery, she started exercising in a pool in Portland, working with an aquatic therapist.

“It was fabulous to get out of my chair into the water, to stand up without load-bearing,” she

said. The pressure of the water and body movement improved the health of her intestinal organs, lungs and heart. She could stretch with her upper body, swing her legs, “things I couldn’t do on land.” Eventually she started swimming.

Anderson, 60, moved to Sunriver last November. She uses a float to help keep her lower body balanced, and backstrokes with her arms for 20 or 25 minutes of aerobic exercise once a week at the Athletic Club of Bend. She also uses a hand-cycle for upper-body exercise twice a week. Between all that and manually pushing her wheelchair around, she said, “My arms are buff, they’re beautiful.

My friends are jealous.”

But the exercise is not about vanity.

“It’s mentally important to me to feel like I’m still a walking person and do what I used to do. I feel better when I can work out,” she said.

“Injured, in a wheelchair, you lose some self-esteem,” she said.

“You need something that makes you feel confident that you can do something.”

“I have so many friends in wheelchairs who don’t swim. I tell them, ‘You need to get into the water. It might be a little bit of a hassle, but in the end you’ll feel so much better. Your health will improve,’” she said. “It’s just a fabulous feeling to straighten out the body.”

She realizes not everyone has the support system to get to and from the pool, or the money to pay membership fees.

For those with multiple sclerosis, however, the Athletic Club of Bend offers a free, weekly aquatic therapy hour, regardless of whether they’re members.

Sandra Hurst comes almost every Tuesday, and said, “It’s my best day.”

Hurst has used a wheelchair full time for a few years. Her multiple sclerosis has progressed slowly since a neurologist confirmed it with a spinal tap in 1980. Before the wheelchair, she went from being mobile to using a cane to using crutches. She hadn’t been very athletic, she said, but had enjoyed hiking and pack camping with horses. As her mobility diminishes, so does her camping.

At the Athletic Club pool, once a week she finds camaraderie and support from others in vari-

ous stages of the central nervous system disease.

She gets herself ready in the handicapped accessible dressing room off the women’s locker room. But she needs some help getting in and out of the pool.

That’s where Rob Higley comes in. Higley, the aquatics director at the club, braces Hurst’s hips and legs with his hands as she grips the railing aside the steps and hoists her body from her wheelchair into the pool. Her legs are stiff and her knees don’t bend. Her body looks wobbly but her expression is confident.

She wedges a peanutshaped flotation device between her legs and powers herself down the lane with a backstroke. Backstroke is safer, Higley said, because rolling and breathing with the freestyle stroke is hard to do without use of the legs.

Plus, he added, backstroke engages the opposing shoulder muscles from the overused muscles she needs to move the wheelchair. At the end of the lane, Higley sometimes helps her turn her body around so her head is pointed back down the lane again. Sometimes she does it by herself.

“I feel good for doing it and I feel a lot of self-satisfaction,” she said of swimming. Her brother died as a child in a drowning accident, so swimming wasn’t something she even considered until recent years. She said she’d like to do it more often but feels like it’s such a huge inconvenience for so many people, mostly her husband, who often drives her to and from the pool. Sometimes a friend, a fellow swimmer, gives her a ride. Other than the wheelchair, she said with a bright smile, life is good. “I just wish everything wasn’t so flippin’ hard.

“Everything is an ordeal and it takes so much longer,” she said.

Higley said the swimmers inspire him. It takes so much time and effort for them to swim for 45 minutes. It puts his excuses for skipping a workout to shame, he said.

“We take this all for granted,” Higley said. “These guys, it takes them a lot of effort just to get loaded into the car and get someone to drive them here. It takes a lot of time to get a one-hour workout. It might take half a day. That’s amazing. They have to have a lot of dedication and motivation from themselves.”

NAT U R AL WEIGHT LOS S

COSMETIC DENTISTRY

QUESTION: I am trying to lose weight, hardly eating anything, and exercising like crazy. Why can’t I lose weight?

ANSWER: Weight management can be a tricky business, with problems due to many reasons. First would be to ensure that there is not any chronic disease or medical reasons such as insulin resistance; thyroid, adrenal or sex hormone imbalance. Next would be a liver detox or Kerie Raymond, metabolic cleanse. We tend to store our toxins in fat tissue N.D. and it is difficult to lose the fat until we lose the toxins.

Then there are a few myths we need to bust. Metabolism is set and can be reset by a variety of mechanisms. If we “fast” by not eating, our metabolism slows deliberately to compensate for the lack of fuel. To lose weight we need to eat, especially a breakfast high in protein, low in sugars. Coffee is our enemy here also by stimulating insulin and cortisol. “The Weight Loss Cure” book re-popularized Dr. Simeon’s HCG protocol which we utilize here in our clinic along with other medically supervised weight management programs.

We can provide all hormone testing, programs and tools to get you started looking and feeling better.

QUESTION: My gums are receding and are getting very sensitive. Why does this happen and how can I stop it? Am I doing this with my tooth brush?

ANSWER: Some believe that if you brush your teeth too hard you will cause your gums to recede. The reality is that you would have to get extremely aggressive with your tooth brush to cause your gums to recede. You can injure your gums with your tooth brush but it is not likely that your receding gums are caused by brushing.

Receding gums are most commonly a result of a bite that is not in harmony. A bite that is mildly out of harmony can cause your gums to recede. The more out of harmony the bite becomes the more severe the recession can be. In extreme cases the tooth will start to become ditched out in the areas of recession. Recession should be taken seriously because it can lead to sensitivity, bone loss and even tooth loss.

Once you notice you have recession you should seek the help of a dentist that is trained in advanced occlusal (bite) principles of harmony, like Neuromuscular dentistry. Once your bite is back in harmony your recession should stop. Most people have a bite that is not in harmony and need some bite treatment to find harmony. Dentistry has incredible procedures to help reposition your gums and correct the recession after getting your bite adjusted. Your sensitivity should subside after these treatments.

QUESTION: I am a healthy 36 year old man who is losing his hair slowly. It seems to run in the family. I am interested in some of the newer hair replacement techniques that look more natural than the old fashion hair plugs. Do you have any recommendations?

ANSWER: Hair restoration has advanced over the past 5 years. No longer are we transplanting plugs of hair, which look unnatural, but we transplant single hair units including the root and hair shaft.

This creates a natural hairline and rejuvenated appearance in patients who are losing some or most of their hair. We no longer take a ‘donor strip’ of hair from the back of the head but now only remove each individual hair follicle producing no scar, faster healing and more satisfied patients. Bend Plastic Surgery specializes in single follicle hair restoration that is performed in the office and most patients only need a single session.

ANSWER: You are describing greater trochanteric bursitis, which occurs when the fibrous band on the outside of the leg irritates the bursa over the hip. This can occur with overuse, but if it recurs, there may be an underlying issue.

Imbalances in hip strength can cause asymmetrical movement of your pelvis. This can cause the fibrous band on the outside of your leg to stretch over the bursa and increases the friction on it, resulting in bursitis. (Inflammation of the bursa) Or, if you have instability in your sacroiliac joints in the pelvis (SI joints), the pelvic bones can rotate while you move, allowing for one leg to seem longer than the other. This would also cause irritation to the fibrous band on the outside of the leg.

Some physical therapists have pursued further education in the treatment of the pelvis, allowing for evaluation and treatment of this problem. At Healing Bridge Physical Therapy we spend an hour every treatment, focusing on individual attention and treatments designed especially for you.

QUESTION: I am unhappy with how my neck is aging and sagging, But I don’t want plastic surgery. Is there an alternative?

ANSWER: More and more men and women are choosing alternative procedures to plastic surgery for looking years younger. Whether the choice is made from a purely financial viewpoint, or the desire for a healthier, Becky Carter Medical Esthetician more natural look, alternative methods are Certified Laser definitely growing in popularity. Alternative Technician face and neck lifts can save more than 50-75 per cent of the costs involved with plastic surgery, the average cost for neck lifts being $1,500. Adding to the savings, the health risks involved with plastic surgery, anesthesia and recovery time, are the main factors in clients choosing alternate procedures. Face and neck lifts can be performed without anesthesia, cosmetic injections, and without “down time”. One procedure performed in less than an hour gives results that can last for years.

QUESTION: My friend said she had great success being treated with cold laser for tendonitis. What is cold laser, and can it help with neck pain?

ANSWER: Low-level laser therapy (LLLT), also referred to as cold laser therapy, is a painless, non-invasive, drug-free treatment which is used to treat a variety of pain syndromes, injuries, neurological conditions and pathologies. Cold laser therapy can be used any time a patient needs a non-invasive procedure for the control of pain, when conventional therapies have been ineffective, or when the acceleration of healing from injuries is desired.

Brad Pfeiffer, DC

Cold laser is a non-thermal laser capable of penetrating deep into tissue in the near infrared wavelength. Once delivered, the light energy promotes the process of photobiostimulation. The resulting photochemical reaction produces an increase in the cellular metabolism rate that expedites cell repair and the stimulation of the immune, lymphatic and vascular systems. The net result, observed in clinical trials to date, is the reduction of pain, decreased inflammation and an overall reduction in healing time.

Laser therapy has been successfully used around the world for over 25 years, with no reported significant side effects. We use a laser that has been cleared by the FDA for the treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome and other musculoskeletal pain syndromes.

A recent review study published in the medical journal the Lancet shows that LLLT reduces pain immediately after treatment in acute neck pain and up to 22 weeks after completion of treatment in patients with chronic neck pain and compares favorably with other forms of therapy for neck pain - particularly pharmacological interventions.

The results of LLLT in this review compare favorably with other widely used therapies, and especially with pharmacological interventions, for which evidence is sparse and side-effects are common.

QUESTION: I have worn glasses and contact lenses for several years. I lead an active lifestyle including cycling and skiing, and contact lenses are becoming increasingly inconvenient. I was once told I was not a good candidate for LASIK. Are there any new treatment options for LASIK? ANSWER: LASIK technology has continued to advance over the last several years with the Patricia Buehler, development of Custom Wavefront technology, M.D. Wavefront technology allows us to treat a broader range of near-sightedness, far-sightedness, and astigmatism than we were able to treat in the past. Precise Custom Wavefront technology improves our chances for optimal outcomes.

With new Bladeless flap creation technology we can treat some patients who were previously not candidates including those with high refractive errors or thinner corneas. Your eye care provider can perform tests to determine if you are a candidate for laser vision correction through a thorough eye exam. At InFocus Eye Care we offer complimentary LASIK evaluations. Please call 541-318-8388 to schedule your free LASIK consultation with one of our boardcertified surgeons.

If you would like further information on cold laser therapy, please feel free to contact our office.

THE BULLETIN • Thursday, July 21, 2011 F5

N B12 Continued from F1 That is, until she found a hematologist at Oregon Health & Science University who has written about the mysterious and prevalent condition that can, among other things, attack a person’s nerves.

B12 deficiency Vitamin B12 deficiency is preventable and treatable, but the signs and symptoms are often overlooked, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. While numbers vary, the National Institutes of Health report that up to 15 percent of the general population could have a vitamin B12 deficiency.

It’s impossible to pigeonhole exactly what B12 deficiency looks like. A B12 deficiency can take years to accumulate and manifest in a wide variety of symptoms, most commonly fatigue, numbness and tingling in the hands and feet, poor balance, depression, confusion, dementia, and soreness of the mouth or tongue. (For more, see “Signs and symptoms that might indicate B12 deficiency,” Page F1) In January, after Gardner saw Dr. Tom DeLoughery, a hematologist, cancer specialist and professor of medicine and pathology at OHSU, she started tak- Dr. Tom ing 1,000-mcg DeLoughery shots of liquid is a hematoloB12 daily for gist, cancer three weeks, specialist and then every professor of three days, medicine and and now it’s pathology monthly. She at Oregon also takes pill Health & supplements Science of B vitamins University. and iron.

She recently said, “I’m 90 percent better. I don’t feel like a freak in public anymore.”

She used to dread standing in checkout lines at grocery stores, when her tremors were so obvious. As a waitress in Sisters, she said she often masked her shaky hands with jokes about too much coffee.

But her mental functions haven’t fully recovered, she said.

“Some days I can’t hold a conversation. I can’t pull words out of the mind. When I’m upset it gets worse,” she said.

Early diagnosis and intervention is important to avoid irreversible neurological damage.

Nerve damage can take a long time to heal, DeLoughery said, and sometimes its irreparable.

“There are a lot of theories, but a lot is still unknown about why it affects nerves,” DeLoughery said. In other words, no one knows exactly why or how the B12 deficiency scrambles one’s nervous system.

Ryan Brennecke / The Bulletin

Torri Gardner uses these supplements and liquid B12 injections to curb her B12 deficiency.

But many clinical studies have been published linking B12 deficiency and a host of neurological problems and neuropsychiatric symptoms. And some studies mention a widespread underrecognition of B12 deficiency.

How B12 deficiencies develop Vitamin B12, found naturally in meat, fish, eggs and dairy products, is a nutrient that helps keep the body’s nerve and blood cells healthy. It also helps make DNA, the genetic material in all cells, according to DeLoughery and the National Institutes of Health.

The body’s process of absorbing B12 from food is complex and delicate.

First, hydrochloric acid in the stomach separates vitamin B12 from food. Then B12 combines with a protein made by the stomach called intrinsic factor and is absorbed by the body.

There are many opportunities for failure along B12’s route from food to the bloodstream.

Pernicious anemia, one wellestablished cause of B12 deficiency that’s most common in older people, is when a person can’t make intrinsic factor.

Or, atrophic gastritis, an inflammation and deterioration of the stomach lining, reduces the stomach acids needed to separate B12 from food.

Stomach acids are also affected by some medications and stomach acid pills such as proton-pump inhibitors, H2 blockers and antacids, DeLoughery said. The journal of the American Academy of Family Physicians published a study in 2003 that said “the nearly ubiquitous use of gastric acid–blocking agents, which can lead to decreased vitamin B12 levels, may have an underappreciated role in the development of vitamin B12 deficiency. Taking the widespread use of these agents and the aging of the U.S. population into consideration, the actual prevalence of vitamin B12 deficiency may be even higher than statistics indicate.”

People who have had weightloss surgery are prone to B12 deficiency because they’ve lost

parts of their stomach that were involved in the absorption process, according to DeLoughery and medical reports.

Gastrointestinal disorders such and Crohn’s or Celiac can interfere with absorption of B12, too.

Bottom line: There are many reasons for B12 deficiency, and it’s not simply solved through diet and nutrition or a simple supplement.

Most people have substantial stores of B12 and can withstand a couple of years of malabsorption before symptoms appear.

For the diet to be the sole reason for B12 deficiency, a person would have to eliminate animal products for years.

DeLoughery doesn’t know the precise cause of Gardner’s B12 deficiency, but said she had prior gastrointestinal problems that might be related, and she might just be genetically susceptible to having an absorption problem. Six years ago, Gardner said, she had surgery on a redundant — extra long — colon.

Generally speaking, DeLoughery said, the cause doesn’t matter to doctors because treatments are generally the same.

Supplemental pills, such as 1,000 mcg a day, will help some people. But B12 injections, which bypass any potential absorption problems in the gut “are coming back into vogue,” he said.

As a water-soluable vitamin, it doesn’t come with risky side effects from overdosing, he said.

Hard to diagnose Typically, B12 deficiency gets diagnosed when a person is anemic. But more recently the medical community has established that the problems from B12 deficiency don’t necessarily have to include anemia, he said. Lacking the anemia, some doctors don’t think to test for a B12 deficiency. Plus, Gardner’s deficiency presented with some unusual neurological problems that could seem like something else, said DeLoughery.

Gardner’s frustration with the medical system is echoed in the book, “Could it be B12? An Epidemic of Misdiagnoses,” by Sally Pacholok, a registered nurse, and Jeffrey Stuart, an osteopath and emergency physician. The book claims that the health care community, government, media and insurance industry are inadequately addressing the B12 disorder.

The irony, according to Pacholok’s book, is that B12 deficiency is simple and inexpensive to diagnose with a blood test and to treat with injections, but failing to do so can cause lifelong disability and even death.

B12 deficiencies are often misdiagnosed or ignored, according to Pacholok. Some people with B12 deficiencies are mistakenly diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, (for which Gardner was tested), some have balance problems, numb hands or feet, mysterious shooting leg pains.

Some are diagnosed with earlyonset dementia or pre-Parkinson’s. Some appear to be schizophrenics. Others are thought to

have Alzheimer’s, Pacholok wrote. In three pages of possible symptoms, Pacholok lists a range from paranoia to depression to tingling, incontinence, heart palpitations, weakness, gastrointestinal problems, ringing in the ears, prematurely gray hair and infertility.

A study from the faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University, in Thailand recently reported that B12 deficiency is an “under recognized problem in daily clinical practice. It seems to be important because the deficiency of this vitamin can lead to irreversible neurological damage, anemia, osteoporosis, and cerebrovascular and cardiovascular diseases.

Some clinical abnormalities that we thought were related to the normal aging changes may actually be caused by cobalamin (B12) deficiency.”

A different case B12 deficiencies are most common in older people. But they’re also found in children and young adults.

Terri Armstrong, a 36year-old from Prineville, was treated for ovarian cancer a few years ago. But more recently, after that treatment ended, she grew lethargic and unable to concentrate.

She felt weak and dizzy. She got a blood test and found that her B12 levels were extremely low, she said.

Postsurgical malabsorption is an established risk factor for B12 deficiency, and Armstrong had gone through several surgeries for her cancer and for dental work. Reports say that exposure to nitrous oxide during surgery (or through recreational drug abuse) can inactivate B12 absorption. Armstrong can’t pinpoint the reason for her deficiency.

During her cancer treatments, she said, she could “power through the pain, but the B12 drop, there was no powering through it.”

She has recently had a rigorous schedule of B12 injections — daily shots for two weeks, now monthly.

“I’m feeling pretty good,” she said. “I’ve been on the B12 a while and my energy is coming back.”

Summer diet pitfalls can be tough to avoid

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

Fresh fruits and vegetables abound in the summer, but so do some diet wreckers. “Barbecues, cookouts and picnics are built for grazing,” says Marisa Moore, a registered dietitian and spokeswoman for the American Dietetic Association. Some common trouble spots: • Summer “salads:” Potato salad, pasta salad and coleslaw might sound healthy, but they can be high in calories and fat.

Half a cup of potato salad, for example, can pack 200 calories.

Keep portions small or lighten salads by cutting mayonnaise content in half — you can sub in nonfat Greek yogurt — and adding mustard and diced vegetables for flavor.

• Mixed drinks: Margaritas, daiquiris and other mixed drinks are high in sugar and can easily top 400 calories. Stick to wine spritzers, light beer or sparkling water with a twist of lime, and alternate alcoholic beverages with water (but remember: doctors recommend no more than one drink a day for women and two for men).

• Frozen drinks: A 20 oz. fruit smoothie can run 500 calories, while a 16 oz. iced coffee concoction can add 400. Order small

sizes, ask for coffee drinks with nonfat milk and no whipped cream and make homemade smoothies with fresh fruit, ice and nonfat yogurt.

• Cookout spreads: Research shows the more food you have in front of you, the more you’ll eat.

Look over everything before you start loading your plate. Then fill up with fruits, vegetables and lean meats such as grilled chicken or fish, along with small portions of your favorite treats. And spend more time mingling and playing games than eating!

M F Energy Continued from F1 “There is a lot of confusion about sports drinks and energy drinks, and adolescents are often unaware of the differences in these products,” said Dr. Marcie Beth Schneider, a pediatrician who co-authored the report.

“Some kids are drinking energy drinks — containing large amounts of caffeine — when their goal is simply to rehydrate after exercise.

This means they are ingesting large amounts of caffeine and other stimulants, which can be dangerous.”

According to the report, the high levels of caffeine and other stimulants in energy drinks could raise heart rate and blood pressure in kids, and lead to serious health problems including anxiety, arrhythmia and seizures.

Most standard energy drinks contain 70 to 80 mg of caffeine per 8-ounce serving, about three times the caffeine in cola drinks. Drinks packaged as 0.8- to 3-ounce “energy shots” can have nearly five times the amount of caffeine in sodas.

In healthy adults, caffeine intake of less than 400 mg per day is considered safe, but toxicity has been reported at 1,000 mg per day. Intake of 5,000 to 10,000 mg in a single day can be lethal. But recommended limits for adolescents, ages 12 to 18, who generally have much lower body weight, are set at 100 mg per day. And children younger than 12 should be limited to about 1 mg of caffeine per pound of body weight.

An 8-ounce can of Red Bull, for example, contains about 77 mg of caffeine.

“In many cases, it’s hard to tell how much caffeine is in a product by looking at the label,” Schneider said. “Some cans or bottles of energy drinks can have more than 500 mg of caffeine, which is the equivalent of 14 cans of soda.”

The caffeine content listed may also understate the true

New York Times News Service

When poor people are given medical insurance, they not only find regular doctors and see doctors more often but also feel better, are less depressed and are better able to maintain financial stability, according to a new, large-scale study that provides the first rigorously controlled assessment of the impact of Medicaid.

While the findings may seem obvious, health economists and policymakers have long questioned whether it would make any difference to provide health insurance to poor people.

Until now, the arguments were pretty much irresolvable. Researchers compared people who happened to have insurance with those who did not have it. But those who do not have insurance tend to be different in many ways from people who have it. They tend to be less educated and to have worse health habits and lower incomes, said Dr. Alan Garber, an internist and health economist at Stanford.

amount of caffeine. Many energy drinks contain guarana, a plant extract that contains 40 mg of caffeine in each gram. But the caffeine from guarana is not included in the amount listed on the can.

How much of an impact all that caffeine may have on kids is unclear. Numerous studies have been done in adults but few have involved children.

In one study of 26 boys and 26 men, caffeine had the same impact on blood pressure in both groups, but affected heart rates of boys but not men.

Several studies have shown that caffeine impacts heart function and can lead to abnormal heart rhythms in adults. It may have an even greater impact on children, particularly those who have underlying heart conditions. Caffeine in energy drinks can also interact with or intensify the effects of other medications that children take, such as stimulants to treat ADHD or anxiety medications.

In 2008, the American Association of Poison Control Centers received 4,852 calls about incidents of caffeine toxicity. Of those, nearly half involved children, and a quarter were kids younger than 6. Last year, the poison control center implemented unique reporting codes for calls involving energy drinks, which should provide better data going forward on

Insurance coverage good for poor people’s health, research finds

lier this month by the National Bureau of Economic Research, avoided that problem. Its design is like that used to test new drugs.

People were randomly selected to have Medicaid or not, and researchers then asked if the insurance made any difference.

In its first year of data collection, the study found a long list of differences between the insured and uninsured, adding up to an extra 25 percent in medical expenditures for the insured.

Those with Medicaid were 35 percent more likely to go to a clinic or see a doctor, 15 percent more likely to use prescription drugs and 30 percent more likely to be admitted to a hospital. Researchers were unable to detect a change in emergency room use.

The insured also felt better: The likelihood that they said their health was good or excellent increased by 25 percent, and they were 40 percent less likely to say that their health had worsened in the past year than those without insurance.

The study is now in its next phase, an assessment of the health effects of having insurance.

The Oregon connection This study became possible because of an unusual situation in Oregon.

In 2008, the state wanted to expand its Medicaid program to include more uninsured people but could afford to add only 10,000 to its rolls. Yet nearly 90,000 applied. Oregon decided to select the 10,000 by lottery.

The situation was perfect for assessing the impact of Medicaid, said Katherine Baicker, professor of health economics at the Harvard School of Public Health. Baicker and Amy Finkelstein, professor of economics at MIT, are the principal investigators for the study. (But they had just a short window of time. Within two years, Oregon found the money to offer Medicaid to the nearly 80,000 who had been turned down in the lottery.)

how often such products cause problems.

Sales of energy drinks in the U.S. are expected to exceed $9 billion this year, with half of that consisting of children and young adults under age 25. Last year, the Food and Drug Administration banned the sale of drinks that mixed alcohol and caffeine, an offshoot of the energy drink market. But mixing standard energy drinks with alcoholic beverages has become commonplace among young adults, and many experts believe FDA should take a stronger stance in regulating all energy drinks.

“Individuals can still mix these highly caffeinated energy drinks with alcohol on their own,” said Amelia Arria, who directs the Center on Young Adult Health and Development at the University of Maryland School of Public Health. “It is also concerning that no regulation exists with regard to the level of caffeine that can be in an energy drink.”

FDA limits caffeine content in soft drinks to 65 mg per 12ounce soda. But energy drinks are considered dietary supplements and are unregulated as long they don’t make any specific health claims.

In the summer heat, kids and parked cars can be a deadly mix

By Kristen Gerencher MarketWatch

SAN FRANCISCO — As you head out for those fun summer activities, you might want to double check your car’s back seat. Parked cars can quickly become ovens in the summer heat, posing a major health threat to children who are forgotten or play in unattended vehicles. Pets also are vulnerable as drivers overestimate their own ability to multitask.

Last year, 49 U.S. children died of vehicular heatstroke, and 16 have succumbed so far this year, according to Kids AndCars.org, a nonprofit childsafety group in Leawood, Kan. More than 500 children have died in hot cars since 2008.

No parent wants to think this could happen to him or her, but it’s easier than you might think to forget a child in the back seat.

Stress, sleep deprivation and changes in routine are part of the job description of parenthood, but they can stack the deck against overtaxed brains.

Taking a few common-sense precautions can make the difference between life and death, according to child health and memory experts. “What people don’t understand is this is not a failure of love,” said Janette Fennell, founder of KidsAndCars .org. “This is a failure of our memories.”

About 35 to 40 children die every year because they were accidentally left behind by otherwise

Safety tips • Put something in the back seat that you will need when you arrive at your destination.

It could be a cellphone, purse or briefcase, and its placement should force you to see your child.

• Keep a teddy bear or toy in the front passenger seat any time a child is riding in the back to remind yourself.

• Have your day-care provider agree to call you if your child doesn’t show up for day care. Better yet, call the provider yourself and confirm that your child has made it if you have a change in your drop-off routine.

• Keep your car locked with the windows up even in the driveway and garage. Keep keys and key fobs out of reach of children. good parents whose memories failed them, said David Diamond, a neuroscience professor in the psychology department at the University of South Florida in Tampa.

Diamond has studied more than 50 such cases and in all of them there was a change in routine or a “perfect storm” combining stress and sleep deprivation.

“I’ve never seen a case where a parent simply forgets and there’s nothing out of the ordinary going on,” he said.

So far this year, 16 children in the U.S. have died of vehicluar heatstroke, according to Kids AndCars .org.

Surgery may have its best effect on less-obese patients Los Angeles Times Weight-loss surgery has been reserved for people who are morbidly obese, with a body mass index of 40 or greater. But both gastric bypass surgery and adjustable gastric banding surgery are increasingly performed on lessobese people. That may be a good thing, according to a new study.

Researchers at Stanford University looked at the outcomes of 981 people who had gastric bypass surgery. The patient’s BMIs ranged from below 35 to greater than 50. The lower-BMI patients had better outcomes than the higher-BMI patients. They lost more weight and had higher rates of remission of diabetes.

The study was presented at the annual meeting of the American Society for Metabolic & Bariatric Surgery.
