Bend’s parade to honor Eaton set for Sunday

By Joel Aschbrenner The Bulletin

Eaton

Young residents of Central Oregon will have a chance Sunday to do what no Olympic decathletes in London could: keep up with Ashton Eaton.

Following a parade for Eaton, there will be a fun run for children 10 and under to jog with the Bend resident and Olympic gold medalist.

The run is free and no registration is required.

The parade will begin at 1 p.m. in downtown Bend, on Bond Street at Franklin Avenue, and will turn left on Oregon Avenue and left again on Wall Street, ending at the Tower Theatre.

The completion date for the roundabout project at Mt. Washington Drive and Simpson Avenue in Bend has been pushed back from the end of September to Oct. 19, a city official said.

Motorists and school buses will have three more weeks of making a detour around the blocked-off intersection.

The intersection has been closed to traffic since June 26.

The project completion date was pushed back due to a combination of factors, said David Abbas, a project engineer for the city.

Work continues this week on the new roundabout at Mt. Washington Drive and Simpson Avenue in Bend. Right-ofway issues and other factors have delayed the construction, according to city project engineer David Abbas.

PICKING THE ART

A dispute between the groups that built the Bend Senior Center heated up when an attorney representing the United Senior Citizens of Bend demanded the Bend Park & Recreation District pay his clients close to $1 million by Christmas.

The USCB, upset that it raised money for the center only to see its mission changed, wants its money back.

Attorney Bill Buchanan said Wednesday he is drafting a letter seeking to dissolve what he claims is a legally binding partnership the park district and USCB entered into when they raised $1.9 million together to build the senior center and another $400,000 to expand it.

The USCB terminated its lease with the park district last summer and moved to Bend’s Community Center because it were upset with the type of programs the

district was providing. Buchanan said the senior center strayed from its original mission — which he says was “to provide critical services to low-income seniors” — and became more of a recreational facility that catered to wealthier seniors.

This apparent change in mission has upset USCB members, Buchanan said, who now want to dissolve their partnership agreement and use the money they make to continue their original mission.

Buchanan’s announcement comes two days after Neil Bryant, an attorney hired to represent the park district, sent Buchanan a letter dismissing his partnership claim and questioning the amount USCB would be entitled to if this claim were proven to be valid.

“We see no good-faith basis in law or fact for the demands you have chosen to make,” Bryant wrote in his letter.

LOS ANGELES — As American health authorities wage an all-out war against obesity, researchers are warning that the nation’s 78 million obese adults and 12.5 million obese children are suffering collateral damage. The message that they will become victims of selfinflicted disease, poor role models for their families and a drag on the economy unless they lose weight has left many feeling depressed, defeated and ashamed, these experts warn.

Ironically, some of the campaigns aimed at obese Americans could sink efforts to help them improve their health, the experts wrote this week in the International Journal of Obesity.

Anti-obesity campaigns viewed as stigmatizing “instill less motivation to improve health,” while the messages that appeared most effective at encouraging behavior change didn’t mention obesity at all, said to the research team from Yale University’s Rudd Center for Food Policy and Obesity.

FOCUS: AGING

Testosterone marketing frenzy has its fans, but also its skeptics

By Matthew Perrone The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — “Are you falling asleep after dinner?”

“Do you have a decrease in libido?”

“Have you noticed a recent deterioration in your ability to play sports?”

“It could be Low-T.” Welcome to the latest big marketing push by the nation’s drug companies.

In this case, it’s a Web page for Abbott Laboratories’ Androgel, a billion-dollar selling testosterone gel used by millions of American men struggling with the symptoms of growing older that are associated with low testosterone, such as poor sex drive, weight gain and fatigue.

Androgel is one of a growing number of prescription gels, patches and injections aimed at boosting the male hormone that begins to decline after about age 40. Drugmakers and some doctors claim testosterone therapy can reverse some of the signs of aging — even though the safety and effectiveness of such treatments is unclear.

Mass-market hormone Despite its rising popularity, testosterone therapy is not completely new. Testosterone injections were long used for men with hypogonadism, a disorder defined by low testosterone caused by injury or infection to the reproductive or hormonal organs.

But the latest marketing push

Axiron, an underarm gel that rolls on like deodorant, is among a growing array of prescription products aimed at boosting testosterone levels, which begin to decline after men hit age 40 or so.

Eli Lilly & Co. via The Associated Press

involving 230 patients in the Netherlands, found no improvement in muscle strength, cognitive thinking, bone density or overall quality of life among men taking testosterone. Muscle mass increased 1.2 percent, but not enough to improve physical mobility.

The National Institute on Aging is currently conducting an 800-man trial to definitively answer whether testosterone therapy improves walking ability, sexual function, energy, memory and blood cell count in men 65 years and older. But

those results aren’t expected until 2014.

In addition to concerns about testosterone’s effectiveness, the long-term side effects of the hormone are not entirely understood because most trials to date have only followed patients for a few months. But the most serious risks include heart problems and prostate cancer.

In 2010, researchers at Boston University’s School of Medicine halted a large study of testosterone in senior men because patients taking the hormone were five times more likely to suffer a serious heart event, including congestive heart failure, than those taking placebo.

A review of 19 testosterone trials in 2006 found that prostate cancer was significantly higher among men taking testosterone. All testosterone drugs carry a warning that the hormone should not be given to men who have a personal or family history of prostate cancer.

Also in 2006, the Endocrine Society published the first physician guidelines for prescribing testosterone for men with androgen deficiency. All six of the co-authors had received consulting fees or research funding from drugmakers that market testosterone. Despite those ties, the authors took a cautious tone, stressing the difficulty of accurately diagnosing low testosterone and acknowledging that they were unable to reach an agreement about when doctors should begin therapy. They also recommend doctors have an “explicit discussion of the uncertainty about the risks and benefits of testosterone therapy.”

It’s Thursday, Sept. 13, the 257th day of 2012. There are 109 days left in the year.

T S Income gap widens among Soft-drink industry U.S. households, Census finds

NYC SODA BAN

braces for long fight

By Michael M. Grynbaum New York Times News Service

NEW YORK — Fearful that stricter limits on soda sales in New York City could incite a national trend — and a long-term erosion of the industry’s profits — the nation’s sweetenedbeverage companies plan to continue campaigning against Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s restrictions on large sodas, even after the plan’s expected approval today by the Board of Health.

Officials in the softdrink industry, while conceding they cannot win the vote by the mayor-appointed board, say they will do whatever is necessary to stop the plan before it can be put in effect in March, including a possible legal challenge and continuing discussions with lawmakers.

“Mayor Bloomberg will not be mayor forever,” said Eliot Hoff, a spokesman for New Yorkers for Beverage Choices, the industry-sponsored group that has spent more than $1 million on a public-relations campaign against the mayor’s plan.

The plan would limit the size of sugary drinks to 16 ounces in the city’s restaurants, movie theaters and other venues. “It’s important for us to have our voices heard for the next administration.”

To the soda industry’s chagrin, Bloomberg’s plan has generated widespread interest in the debate about soft drinks and obesity, an issue that had lurked mostly in academic journals and Washington policy circles. A defeat of the mayor’s measure could be a deterrent for other cities considering similar steps.

Group calls for quick action on Gulf Coast

By Greg Gordon McClatchy Newspapers

WASHINGTON — A five-state coalition, warning that decades of damage inflicted by man and nature could take a $350 billion toll, called Wednesday on the White House and Congress to make an urgent commitment of massive, long-term aid to protect the battered Gulf Coast, its fragile ecosystem and its oil, seafood, shipping and tourism industries.

“The Gulf Coast is coming to the end of its borrowed time, I’m afraid,” R. King Milling, the chairman of America’s Wetland Foundation, said in unveiling a report containing 30 recommendations for coastal restoration from Florida to Texas, steps estimated to cost tens of billions of dollars at a time of fiscal frugality in Washington.

The report summarizes the results of forums held over 14 months in 11 communities from Florida to Texas in which more than 1,100 local leaders were asked to set aside partisan or parochial differences and join in a common cause.

It estimates that the Gulf Coast could face $350 billion in cumulative economic losses over the next 20 years from storm surges, rising seas because of global warming and sinking land masses because of mistaken management of the Mississippi River.

WASHINGTON — The income gap between the wealthiest 20 percent of U.S. households and the rest of the country grew sharply in 2011, the Census Bureau reported, as the overwhelming majority of Americans saw no gains from a weak economic recovery in its second full year.

Income for the top fifth of U.S. households rose by 1.6 percent in 2011, driven by even larger increases for the top 5 percent of households, said

David Johnson, the Census Bureau official who presented the findings. All households in the middle of the scale saw declines, while those at the very bottom stagnated.

“You’re really struck by the unevenness of the recovery,” said Lawrence Katz, an economics professor at Harvard.

“The top end took a whack in the recession, but they’ve gotten back on their feet. Everyone else is still down for the count.”

The numbers helped drive an overall decline in income for the typical American fam-

ily. Median household income after inflation fell to $50,054, a level that was 8 percent lower than in 2007, the year before the recession took hold.

The Census Bureau reported that a standard measure of income inequality, the Gini index, registered the first yearon-year increase since 1993, a surprise for economists who say the measure usually changes so slowly that a statistically significant rise over the course of one calendar year is rare.

Two other of the report’s findings were promoted by

the Obama administration as achievements.

The share of Americans without health insurance declined, driven by a 2.2 percent drop in the portion of uninsured 19-25 year olds, strong evidence that a provision in President Barack Obama’s health care measure that allowed children to stay on their parents’ insurance policies until age 26 is having an impact.

And the percentage of Americans in poverty remained unchanged for the first time in four years.

Negotiators return to table on 3rd day of Chicago teachers strike

By Sophia Tareen and Don Babwin The Associated Press

The public exchanges between striking Chicago teachers and the school district grew more personal Wednesday as negotiators returned to the bargaining table on the walkout’s third day.

A top district negotiator, Barbara Byrd-Bennett, criticized teachers union President Karen Lewis for using the word “silly” when describing the negotiations to a crowd of adoring teachers a day earlier.

“It is not silly that we spent over 10 hours yesterday attempting to bridge the gap,” Byrd-Bennett said just before the talks resumed. “We take these negotiations incredibly serious.”

The strike has canceled classes for more than 350,000 students.

Union officials continued to play down the chances of a quick resolution to the dispute, which centers on the district’s proposed new teacher evaluation process and a policy on re-

Evaluations are a flashpoint Striking teachers in Chicago are fighting a contentious education reform that could overhaul how they are paid and evaluated, highlighting the difficulty of judging them by the performance of their students.

While the debate plays out dramatically in Illinois, new teacher evaluation systems have created conflict in other states, including Florida and Tennessee, which now use students’ standardized test scores

hiring teachers that have been laid off. The district said it had presented the union with a new comprehensive proposal Tuesday and was demanding either a response in writing or a comprehensive counter-proposal.

“It’s going to take time to work things out,” Lewis said.

“It’s also going to take the will to make compromises. We have made quite a few. We would like to see more on their

in their evaluations of teachers. And the stakes of such evaluations are increasing in many places, with personnel decisions often hinging on the results.

A 2010 law passed in Illinois requires that all schools in the state adopt a new evaluation system by the 2016-17 school year. In Chicago, student “growth” — or improvement — on standardized tests will count for at least 25 percent of a teacher’s evaluation.

side.”

Mayor Rahm Emanuel, commenting on the strike after a City Council meeting, pushed again for a quick conclusion to the talks, saying the final issues could be resolved with the children back in school. Nevertheless, he said, district officials were arranging for children to receive more computer access at drop-off schools so they can spend time learning

as the strike goes on.

On Tuesday, officials in the country’s third-largest school district announced that, beginning Thursday, the 147 dropoff centers where students can get free breakfast and a morning of supervision will be open six hours a day rather than four.

As the teachers walk the picket lines, they have been joined by parents who are scrambling to find a place for children to pass the time or for baby sitters. Mothers and fathers — some with their kids in tow — are marching with the teachers. Other parents are honking their encouragement from cars or planting yard signs that announce their support in English and Spanish.

Unions are still hallowed organizations in much of Chicago, and the teachers union holds a special place of honor in many households where children often grow up to join the same police, firefighter or trade unions as their parents and grandparents.

Alaska fisherman rescued after 24 hours adrift

By Kim Murphy Los Angeles Times

SEATTLE — A 19-year-old fisherman whose boat capsized in the chilly waters of southern Alaska floated for more than 24 hours in a 4-foot plastic fish tub, singing “Row, Row, Row Your Boat” to keep his spirits up.

Ryan Harris was finally rescued from his battle with 8-foot waves by a Coast Guard helicopter, which had joined a massive search of the waters around Sitka, Alaska, for Harris and his crewmate, Stonie

Huffman, the Sitka Daily Sentinel reported.

Huffman survived, too, though he didn’t have a bin in which to float. Instead, he was able to don a buoyant survival suit, grab on to the lid of one of the fishing bins, and battle the crashing waves to head toward shore.

The two men had set out for a routine day of fishing for coho salmon when they were hit with twin problems: a failed hydraulics system and high waves crashing around their

aluminum boat.

Just as they managed to make repairs to the hydraulic system, the boat went down a steep wave that dumped a deluge of water in the bow of the boat. Almost immediately, a second large wave hit the stern, and the two men found themselves in the water, with the boat going down.

Huffman helped Harris climb into a bin, but he couldn’t get in one himself, instead grabbing onto a lid of one of the bins and struggling into a survival

suit that was drifting nearby.

With waves reaching 8 feet, it took him two hours to get into the suit, and by that time, the two men were no longer in view of each other.

Having to stay awake and alert to keep the tiny tub from tipping in the high waves, Harris sang “Row Your Boat” and “Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer,” as well as other songs, to pass the long hours of darkness. “I never thought I was going to die, but I was worried about Mac,” he said.

Attackers of U.S. consulate in Libya well-armed, organized

Stevens recalled as a man who cared deeply for Libya SACRAMENTO, Calif — After a recent break from work, U.S. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens e-mailed his family in Northern California that he’d arrived back in Libya.

“He just got back to Libya a few days ago,” said his brother, Tom Stevens, 46.

“He sent an email saying he had a lot of work waiting for him, so he’d have to email more later.”

And then came the tragic news. On the 11th Stevens anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks, the 52-year-old Stevens and three other embassy staff members were killed in an attack on the consulate in Benghazi.

His stepfather, Robert Commanday, told CNN that Stevens loved the Libyan people and was passionate about helping the country recover from its revolution.

A day after Stevens died, his family and friends remembered him as a dedicated career foreign service officer and a smart, amiable, unflappable man with a gift for caring about the world around him.

He loved playing tennis, and he played it around the globe, using the tennis court as a way to get to know other diplomats, his brother said. He loved running, and he ran everywhere. “He even ran on the dangerous streets of Tripoli,” said Tom Stevens.

Locally, some remembered Chris Stevens as the boy who attended Pioneer Elementary and Emerson Junior High in the city of Davis, where he joined the ski club and played saxophone in the band.

By David D. Kirkpatrick and Steven Lee Myers New York Times News Service

CAIRO — Islamist militants armed with antiaircraft weapons and rocket-propelled grenades stormed a lightly defended U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya, late Tuesday, killing the U.S. ambassador and three members of his staff and raising fresh questions about the radicalization of countries swept up in the Arab Spring.

The ambassador, J. Christopher Stevens, was missing almost immediately after the start of an intense, four-hour firefight for control of the mission, and his body was not located until Wednesday morning at dawn, when he was found dead at a Benghazi hospital, U.S. and Libyan officials said. It was the first time since 1979 that a U.S. ambassador had died in a violent assault.

U.S. and European officials said that while many details about the attack remained unclear, the assailants seemed organized, well-trained and heavily armed and appeared to have at least some level of advanced planning. But the officials cautioned that it was too soon to tell whether the attack was related to the anniversary of the 9/11 attacks.

Fighters involved in the assault, which was spearheaded by a Islamist brigade formed during last year’s uprising against Moammar Gadhafi, said in interviews during the battle that they were moved to attack the mission by anger over a 14-minute, Americanmade video that depicted the Prophet Muhammad, Islam’s founder, as a villainous, homosexual and child-molesting buffoon.

The Libyans, he added, “helped some of our diplomats find safety, and they carried Ambassador Stevens’ body to the hospital, where we tragically learned he had died,” he added, referring to the envoy J. Christopher Stevens.

The president found less reason to be pleased with Egypt, the second-largest recipient of U.S. foreign aid after Israel, at $2 billion a year. Morsi issued only a mild rebuke of the rioters — and on Facebook — while his movement, the Muslim Brotherhood, has called for a second day of protests against the lurid anti-Muslim video that set off the riots. And though the Egyptian police coordinated with U.S. officials, Morsi waited 24 hours before issuing his statement against the militants who stormed the embassy; Libyan authorities, issued immediate, unequivocal statements of regret for the bloodshed in Benghazi.

Libyans walk on the grounds of the gutted U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya, on Wednesday, after an attack that killed four Americans, including Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens.

Their attack followed by just a few hours the storming of the compound surrounding the U.S. Embassy in Cairo by an unarmed mob protesting the same video. On Wednesday, new crowds of protesters gathered outside the U.S. Embassies in Tunis and in Cairo.

The wave of unrest set off by the video, posted online in the United States two months ago and dubbed into Arabic for the first time eight days ago, has further underscored the instability of the countries that cast off their longtime dictators in the Arab Spring revolts. It also cast doubt on the adequacy of security prep-

that the U.S. relationship with Egypt is evolving.

“I don’t think that we would consider them an ally, but we don’t consider them an enemy,” he said in an interview with Telemundo that was broadcast Wednesday night on The Rachel Maddow Show on MSNBC. “I think it’s still a work in progress, but certainly in this situation, what we’re going to expect is that they are responsive to our insistence that our embassy is protected.”

For the U.S., “politically the bigger issue is Egypt,” said Martin Indyk, a former U.S. ambassador to Israel. “On the one hand, you didn’t have Americans getting killed, but this was the fourth time an embassy was assaulted in Cairo with the Egyptian police doing precious little,” Indyk said.

“And where was President Morsi’s condemnation of this?”

Several foreign policy experts said they worried that Morsi was putting appeasement of his country’s Islamist population ahead of national security. That comes on top of other moves by his government, including restrictions on press freedom and squabbling

arations at U.S. diplomatic outposts in the volatile region.

President Barack Obama condemned the killings, promised to bring the assailants to justice, and ordered tighter security at all U.S. diplomatic installations. The administration also dispatched 50 Marines to the Libyan capital, Tripoli, to help with security at the U.S. Embassy there, and ordered all nonemergency personnel to leave Libya and warned Americans not to travel there. A senior defense official said Wednesday night that the Pentagon was moving two warships toward the Libyan coast as a precaution.

In Tripoli, Libyan leaders also vowed to track down the attackers and stressed their unity with Washington.

Obama administration officials and regional officials scrambled to sort out conflicting reports about the nature of the attack and the motivation of the attackers on Wednesday. A senior administration official told reporters during a conference call that “it was clearly a complex attack,” but offered no details.

A translated version of the video that set off the uprising arrived first in Egypt before reaching the rest of the Islamic world. Its author, whose

Eaton’s decorated track career began in Central Oregon.

He moved to La Pine at age 2 and to Bend before the sixth grade. At Mountain View, he was a track and field standout, winning state titles in the 400 meters and long jump.

At the University of Oregon, Eaton won three national titles in

the decathlon from 2008 to 2010.

He won an indoor heptathlon title in 2009 and again in 2010, breaking a world record set by fellow Oregonian Dan O’Brien.

In June, Eaton set the world record in the decathlon with 9,039 points, winning the U.S Olympic trials in Eugene and qualifying for London. In London, he ran away from the field, taking gold with 8,869 points, nearly 200 more than silver medal winner and teammate Trey Hardee.

Because of the roundabout project, school buses have to take alternate routes to transport students to Summit High School, Cascade Middle School and Miller Elementary School, said Sue McAdam, the

operations manager for routing at Bend-La Pine Schools.

That adds about five to seven minutes onto bus rides for youngsters, she said.

The roundabout project has an estimated cost of $3 million and is being paid for by a $30 million bond measure that Bend voters approved in 2011 for road improvements.

by contrast, from “popular attitudes toward the U.S., to its domestic economy, to relations between the Muslim Brotherhood and the army, to relations between Cairo and Jerusalem, to the situation in Sinai, will profoundly affect the region, and so will profoundly affect America’s posture in the region,” Malley said.

identity is now a mystery, devoted the video’s prologue to caricatured depictions of Egyptian Muslims abusing Egyptian Coptic Christians while Egyptian police officers stood by.

It was publicized last week by an American Coptic Christian activist, Morris Sadek, well known here for his scathing attacks on Islam.

Sadek promoted the video in tandem with a declaration

by Terry Jones — a Florida pastor best known for burning the Quran and promoting what he called “International Judge Muhammad Day” on Sept. 11.

What makes Egypt’s uncertain course so vexing for the White House is that Obama, more than any other foreign leader, has sided again and again with the Arab street in Cairo, even when it meant going expressly against the wishes of traditional allies, including the Egyptian military, the Persian Gulf states, and Israel.

As recently as June, Obama was calling on the Egyptian military to quickly hand over power to the democratically elected civilian government — a move that helped Morsi, whose movement has called for greater use of Islamic law, assume power. At the same time, the administration was chastising the military, which has for 30 years served as the bulwark of a key U.S. strategic interest in the Middle East: the 1979 Camp David peace treaty between Egypt and Israel.

For anti-American unrest to erupt in Egypt after all that could reflect a deeper divergence of a once-staunch ally from the U.S. Morsi’s belated reaction came after other actions that have troubled U.S. officials, from his decision to attend a meeting of non-

aligned countries in Tehran to his choice of China for his first overseas trip. Obama has pledged to forgive $1 billion in Egyptian debt.

“How does the president go to the Hill and say, ‘we need to forgive $1 billion in Egyptian debt?’” said Steven Cook, a senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations. “The complication is that this is happening six weeks before the election.

The things that the administration wants to do in Egypt have become a heavier lift.”

David Makovsky, a senior fellow at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy, said, “There are some real serious questions about the direction of the Egyptian government.

Some of this will be submerged because of the election, but it is likely to come back later.”

The violence in Libya and Egypt reinforces what has been true from the start of the Arab uprising last year: these are homegrown movements over which the U.S. has at limited influence. The administration, experts say, can do little more than reaffirm its democratic aspirations and commitment to basic principles.

Obesity

Seniors

Continued from A1 The study comes as state and federal public health officials grapple with an obesity crisis that threatens to swamp efforts to contain health care costs and prolong Americans’ lifespans. In a bid to reverse surging rates of obesity in the United States and the industrialized world, public health officials have spawned a slew of campaigns that take a variety of approaches.

Many encourage behavior change with helpful tips such as “eat a variety of colorful fruits and vegetables every day,” as a program backed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention advises.

But other campaigns have been less upbeat. In Georgia, a controversial series of video and billboard advertisements remind parents that “fat kids become fat adults,” and that “being fat takes the fun out of being a kid.” An Australian anti-obesity campaign pointedly warns viewers, “the more you gain, the more you have to lose.”

Such messages are broadcast amid widespread stigma against the obese: heavy workers earn less, are more likely to be passed over for jobs and promotions, and are more likely than their thinner peers to be viewed as lazy and undisciplined, researchers have found. A poll released last month by Harris Interactive/HealthDay found that 61 percent of Americans do not consider negative remarks about a person’s weight to be offensive.

Even among physicians, obese patients elicit feelings of prejudice and blame. A 2003 survey, published in the journal Obesity Research, found that half considered their obese patients awkward, ugly, unattractive and unlikely to follow their advice. In addition, one-third of doctors also viewed obese patients as weak-willed, sloppy and lazy.

Against this backdrop, it’s little wonder that some public health campaigns would employ guilt and shame to motivate people to lose weight, said Rebecca Puhl, the Rudd Center’s research director and

leader of the new study.

“There tends to be a sense that maybe a little bit of stigma isn’t such a bad thing, that maybe it’ll give overweight or obese viewers a little motivation,” she said.

But such views do not account for shame’s boomerang effect.

“When children or adults are made to feel stigmatized, shamed or teased about their weight, they’re likely to engage in binge eating and unhealthy weight-control practices, and to avoid physical activity,” Puhl said. “We find that people actually cope with stigma by eating more food.”

To Nina Savelle-Rocklin, a San Fernando Valley psychotherapist who specializes in treating those with eating disorders, the link between shame and overeating is clear.

“Shame is about feeling bad about who you are,” SavelleRocklin said. That message “is unbearable and intolerable” to most, and those who quell negative emotions by eating “are going to turn to food. ...

It’s just a recipe for disaster.”

University of California, Los Angeles psychologist Matthew D. Lieberman, who studies the neuroscience of persuasion, said the latest study is in line with research showing that public health campaigns can only be successful if they “fit with our sense of ourselves.”

When he’s in the lab watching the persuasive process unfold on brain scans, the messages that spur people to action are the ones that ac-

tivate a region of the brain involved in thinking and reflecting about one’s self. Negative thoughts aren’t likely to recruit the neural systems that convert a message into action, Lieberman said.

Puhl and her colleagues asked 1,014 volunteers to evaluate 30 public service announcements from several countries aimed at curbing obesity. The team found that obese subjects who viewed the anti-obesity campaign messages were likely to perceive shame and stigma more strongly and more often than their slimmer counterparts.

Past research suggests that their long exposure to others’ negative attitudes toward them may prime obese viewers to experience stress when the subject of weight is raised.

They commonly respond to such stress by consuming more calories, said Puhl.

“It’s not a helpful public health tool,” she said. “It reinforces the problem and makes the situation worse.”

Far more effective were messages that suggested specific steps that would improve health, conveyed a sense of empowerment and left references to obesity unspoken.

In the study, the slogan that got the highest marks for motivation was “Eat well. Move more. Live longer.” Part of a British campaign called Change4Life, it was rated stigmatizing by less than 30 percent of participants, and 85 percent said it would move them to make changes.

In 1999, USCB and the city of Bend filled out an application seeking a $600,000 community development block grant that would help the city construct a 10,500-squarefoot building that would serve the city’s senior population. The Bend Park & Recreation District would own the building and manage it in exchange for contributing two acres of land it had to house the project in at the corner of 15th Street and Reed Market Avenue.

The senior center opened in November 2001 soon after the city secured the grant and the rest of the money to complete its construction.

It was expanded to include a 3,500-square-foot activity room three years later.

Even though the park district and USCB never had an official partnership agreement, Buchanan maintains one existed between the parties as they worked to raise this money. He based this on news reports stating the parties worked together as partners, passages in the state of Oregon’s partnership code, and a divorce case in which a woman was given half of a business she and her husband helped build even though they had a prenuptial agreement separating their assets.

“When you dissolve a partnership, the issue is whether one of the parties wants out,” said Buchanan, who first met with Bryant to discuss the

legal basis for his partnership claim in June. “We don’t need to accuse them of any wrongdoing (or prove it), we just need to say, ‘I break with thee.’ ” But breaking up is hard to do when one of the parties involved in the supposed partnership denies such a relationship existed in the first place, and that’s exactly what Bryant, the park district’s attorney, did in the letter he sent to Buchanan on Monday. In the document, Bryant quotes a passage of the Oregon state code that defines a partnership as being the “association of two or more persons to carry on as co-owners of a business for profit.”

The city, the park district and the USCB had hoped that whatever money the senior center generated would be able to pay its expenses when they set out to build it, Bryant claims, adding the three parties involved in its construction never intended to run the facility as a business for profit.

The money In the letter, Bryant also, “for the sake of argument,” questioned whether USCB would get the money it wants if a judge ruled a partnership did exist between USCB and the park district when they raised the money to build the senior center.

Buchanan claims USCB is due $925,000, which is 49 percent of the building’s current value, because it contributed $890,000, or 49 percent of the money it, the park district and the city raised to build

the senior center and pay for its 2004 expansion. Part of this contribution includes the $325,000 the city made after it sold a building USCB occupied from 1979 to when the senior center was built to Bend’s Community Center, he said. “(USCB’s building) was given to them by the city,” park district executive director Don Horton said as he challenged this claim in a Wednesday interview.

Because the building that is now Bend’s Community Center was the city’s to begin with, Horton said, the money made from its sale could not count toward its contribution. This understanding was spelled out in a fundraising agreement he said the city, the park district and USCB entered into when they built the senior center.

That agreement called on USCB to contribute $700,000 in cash toward the project, an amount Horton said it missed by $670,000.

Horton said USCB did contribute $250,000 toward the senior center’s expansion, which brings its total contribution to $280,000, an amount far short of the $890,000 Buchanan claims the group contributed and is using as the basis of his claim for a 49 percent stake in its ownership.

“At best,” Bryant wrote in his letter. “USCB would own a minority interest in the building and would be responsible for its share of the expenses.”

Study: Social networks boost voter turnout New York Times News Service A study of millions of Facebook users on Election Day 2010 has found that online social networks can have a measurable, though limited, effect on voter turnout.

The study, published online Wednesday by the journal Nature, suggests that a special “get out the vote” message, showing each user

pictures of friends who said they had already voted, generated 340,000 additional votes nationwide — whether for Democrats or Republicans, the researchers could not determine.

The scientists, from Facebook and the University of California, San Diego, said they believed the study was the first to demonstrate that

social networks could have an impact on elections.

Significantly if not surprisingly, the voting study showed that patterns of influence were much more likely to be demonstrated between close friends. And the researchers found an indirect impact from the messages: Friends of friends were influenced as well.

Britain apologizes for blaming victims

Colombians pin hopes on peace talks

• Cameron: Portraying soccer fans as hooligans added to tragedy

By John F. Burns New York Times News Service

LONDON — Nearly a quarter of a century after 96 Liverpool soccer fans were crushed to death in one of the worst stadium disasters in history, Prime Minister David Cameron formally apologized Wednesday to the victims’ families, saying their “appalling deaths” were compounded by an attempt by the police, investigators and the media to depict the victims as

Suicide bombing targets Somalia’s president

By Abdi Guled The Associated Press

MOGADISHU, Somalia — Somalia’s new president survived an assassination attempt on his second day in office when two suicide bombers blew themselves up Wednesday while trying to gain access into a heavily guarded hotel that is his Mohamud tempora r y residence, officials and witnesses said.

The attack highlights the challenge that insecurity caused by an Islamist insurgency poses to Somalia’s fledgling government.

The African Union Mission for Somalia said one of its soldiers was killed when the two suicide attackers attempted to penetrate the Jazeera Hotel where the President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud and Kenya’s foreign minister were giving a news conference. Three soldiers were wounded in the blast.

The two suicide bombers set off explosions after they were shot by soldiers guarding the Jazeera Hotel, while another was intercepted and shot dead as he attempted to scale the walls of the hotel’s compound, the African Union Mission for Somalia, known as Amisom, said in a statement.

Witnesses say at least one more person was killed, bringing the total death toll to a minimum of five, including the three attackers.

hooligans and to blame them for the disaster.

Before a hushed House of Commons, Cameron said the families had suffered “a double injustice” in the failures of the police, fire and other authorities to anticipate the disaster or to contain its scale once it occurred, and in the efforts that followed to cover up the police failings by altering dozens of witness statements, and to pin responsibility on the victims for their

own deaths.

The prime minister’s apology, and the findings of a new inquiry panel on which it was based, marked a stunning reversal in a saga that had been an open wound in Britain since April 15, 1989, when 3,000 Liverpool supporters sought to crowd into standing-room terraces approved for barely half that many at Hillsborough Stadium in Sheffield, 150 miles north of London. All but one of the vic-

tims perished that day, many of them within minutes.

It has become known simply as the Hillsborough disaster, a horrifying reference point for sports officials throughout the world, and it has come to symbolize an era of rambunctious British soccer fans and the measures that clubs and the police took to contain them.

In effect, Cameron’s apology amounted to an acknowledgment that the official version of what happened in the Hillsborough disaster was a stereotyped overlay, eagerly

crafted by the police, on a far more complex event that had its roots in bungling and cover-up by the authorities.

“This appalling death toll of so many loved ones was compounded by an attempt to blame the victims,” Cameron said as the new report was published, effectively rejecting earlier findings by a judicial inquiry and an inquest whose narrow conclusions, blaming police failings but also pointing to unruliness among the victims, had been battled by the families for more than 20 years.

Deadly Pakistan factory fires blamed on safety violations

By Adil Jawad and Sebastian Abbot The Associated Press

KARACHI, Pakistan — Fires at two clothing factories in Pakistan left 283 people dead — many trapped behind locked doors and barred windows — tragedies that highlight workplace perils in a country where many buildings lack basic safety equipment and owners often bribe officials to ignore the violations.

The blazes broke out Tuesday night at a garment factory in of Karachi and a shoe manufacturer in Lahore. At least 258 people died in the fire in Karachi, where rescue workers were still searching Wednesday for bodies in the charred building. Another 25 perished in Lahore.

Panicked workers in Karachi had only one way out since the factory’s owner had locked all the other exit doors in response to a recent theft, officials said. Many victims suffocated in the smoke-filled basement.

“The owner of the factory should also be burned to death the way our dear ones have died in a miserable condition,” said Nizam-ud-Din, whose nephew was killed in the fire, one of the deadliest industrial accidents in Paki-

stani history.

Police were searching for the factory’s managers and placed the owner on a list of people who are not allowed to leave the country, said Roshan Ali Sheikh, a top government official in Karachi.

“It is a criminal act to lock the emergency exit doors, and we are trying to know who did it, and why,” Sheikh said.

The fire started when a boiler exploded and the flames ignited chemicals that were stored in the factory, which manufactured jeans and other clothes for export.

Between 300 and 400 workers were inside when the blaze erupted.

The fire that swept through the four-story shoe factory in Lahore left 25 people dead,

some from burns and others from suffocation, said senior police officer Multan Khan.

The fire broke out as workers were trying to start a generator after electricity went out in the building. Sparks from the generator made contact with chemicals used to make shoes, igniting the blaze, which blocked the only exit.

German court backs euro rescue fund New York Times News Service KARLSRUHE, Germany — Germany’s Federal Constitutional Court on Wednesday gave Chancellor Angela Merkel a significant victory in her bid to master the debt crisis that has affected the Continent for years and endangered its common cur-

rency, granting approval to one of the key pillars of her strategy.

With the ruling, the 17 countries of the eurozone will be able to move ahead with the establishment of the European Stability Mechanism, something like a continental version of the International

Monetary Fund. The mechanism will handle bailouts and work in tandem with the European Central Bank to buy the bonds of countries like Italy and Spain that are straining under high interest rates.

The court ruled that Germany could proceed with its contribution to the mecha-

nism but set certain conditions, including a requirement for parliamentary approval of any increase in the agreedupon German contribution of 190 billion euros, or about $240 billion. While unlikely to still the crisis entirely, a rejection could have unleashed new waves of instability.

MARQUETALIA,Colombia — It was here, on steep green hillsides reachable by mule train, that peasants armed with old bolt-action rifles became the FARC, a rebel group that would use the bounties of the drug trade to wage decades of war against the U.S.supported government.

But today, the FARC’s commanders and old guard say they are ready to begin official peace talks with Colombia’s government, the fourth time since the 1980s that the two sides will negotiate.

That has given the people of this region, who have lived since 1964 in the midst of one of the world’s oldest conflicts, a faint hope that the violence they have known all their lives could at last come to an end.

As President Juan Manuel Santos’ government prepares for negotiations to begin next month, polls show most people in this country of nearly 47 million have embraced the possibility that talks could finally lead the FARC to lay down its weapons.

Activists can’t return to disputed islands HONG KONG — A group of Chinese activists revealed Wednesday that their vessel was not seaworthy enough for a return to a group of islands claimed by both China and Japan. The group, the Action Committee for Defending the Diaoyu Islands, had sailed to the islands last month to support China’s claim to the islands.

Even without another trip by the activists, tensions between China and Japan remain high.

On Tuesday, China sent two patrol ships toward the islands and accused Japan of stealing them after the Japanese government said it had agreed to buy three of them from their private owner.

The pro-China activist group, the Action Committee for Defending the Diaoyu Islands, held a small protest at lunchtime Wednesday near the base of Exchange Square.

Musicians should be freed, Medvedev says MOSCOW — Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev said Wednesday that he believed that three female punk rockers jailed for a profane stunt in Moscow’s main Russian Orthodox cathedral should be released rather than serve out their two-year sentences.

Weighing in on a case that has drawn widespread condemnation in the West, Medvedev was careful to assure his audience that he did not approve of the women’s performance of an anti-Kremlin song at the cathedral.

But he went on to say that further incarceration would be “unproductive” — the most explicit commentary to come from a high-ranking official since the Aug. 17 sentencing.

TRAIL UPDATE Trails are dry, less busy These last weeks of summer are great for enjoying the trails, said Chris Sabo, U.S. Forest Service trails specialist.

“The mosquitoes are finished, use is down....

(It is) a nice quiet time of year.”

All of the routine summer trail clearing and maintenance is done for the year, Sabo said. Some trails are dusty, but not too bad, he said.

The dry weather does cause concern for fires, he said, and in many campgrounds and trail areas, campfires are not permitted.

Public use restrictions for fire, smoking and chain saw use have been posted on the Forest Service website (http://tinyurl.com/ d29jsll). Trail users in wilderness areas should be on the defensive with fire danger, Sabo said — and “even though campfires are currently permitted within the wilderness areas, we are asking folks to be extremely careful with them if they do need one.”

Fires should be kept small and completely extinguished if you have to leave the fire for any length of time, Sabo said. Some areas, including Green, Moraine, and Mirror lakes, have fire closures in effect year-round.

The Pole Creek Fire “has closed down quite a large area on the east side of the Three Sisters (North, Middle and South) … at least from the McKenzie Pass south to the Park Meadow Trail, all the way over to the 16 Road west to the (Pacific Crest Trail),” Sabo said.

eering through the eyepiece of his tripod-mounted spotting scope, Peter Low scanned a string of ridges and peaks that stretched between Mount Jefferson and Mount Hood from a vantage point he set up due east atop Green Ridge in the Deschutes National Forest.

“I’ve got three accipiters to the right of the skinny snag,” he shouted.

When he made this announcement, we — as in myself, my wife, Meryl Ibis, and some volunteers from the East Cas-

cade Audubon Society and the High Desert Museum — trained our binoculars on a dead fir tree that stuck out on the horizon, and waited for a set of birds to soar through the air.

Almost immediately, the trio of sharp-shinned hawks thrust above the horizon and rode a series of air currents flowing up Green Ridge’s western slope. On outstretched wings, they headed south over the 4,400-foot-high ridgeline to their winter homes.

“We’ve got a counter,” Kevin Smith said as he watched one of the three hawks fly past.

For the next two weeks, teams of volunteers from the High Desert Museum and the East Cascades Audubon Society will meet up at the Indian Ford Campground northwest of Sisters and head out to their viewpoint to count the raptors that fly overhead (see “If you go,” Page B6).

The data collected about the migrating raptors will be shared with a number of groups, including the Utah-based HawkWatch International, in order to learn more about the birds and protect them so that others may watch their flights in the future.

Watch our night sky change with the seasons

By Bill Logan For The Bulletin

SKY WATCH

The summer constellations Virgo, Libra and Scorpius are now low in the west. Sagittarius “A,” the center of our Milky Way galaxy, is due south at 8 p.m., but by 10:30 p.m. falls below the southwestern horizon. The autumn constellations, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces are now becoming prominent along the

zodiac in the south and southeast.

We can get a sneak preview of the winter constellations Taurus and Orion just after midnight as they rise in the east.

Autumn begins when the sun crosses the equator at precisely 7:33 a.m. Sept. 22 on its southward journey for the winter. Daylight will become shorter yet and the nights will become longer until the sun

reaches its southernmost travels, arriving at the Tropic of Capricorn for the winter solstice Dec. 21.

The beautiful open star cluster M45, the Pleiades, will rise in the east at 10 p.m. and is best viewed with a good pair of binoculars.

Jupiter is still in the constellation Taurus and will rise tonight at 10:27 p.m. in the east just below the Pleiades. Venus will rise at 3:11 a.m.

Friday morning in the constellation Cancer. The moon is a 6-dayold waxing crescent and will set at 10:56 p.m., making the night sky ideal for deep-space viewing with a good telescope.

THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 2012 • THE BULLETIN

A & A

Siblings blinded by father’s money turn away from mom Dear Abby: My father left my mother after 32 years of marriage. To say Mom was devastated would be putting it mildly. She tried to keep things cordial for the sake of her four kids, but Dad spurned her efforts.

My three brothers and I are now married with children of our own. Only recently have I been able to express how ashamed I am of myself and my siblings for the despicable way we have treated our mother for the past 17 years.

Dad was always arrogant, but he became even worse when he came into money. In our lives, Dad became No. 1.

The reason? You guessed it — the money. We put our mother down every chance we got, and our spouses chimed right in. We visited her only once or twice a year and never repaid the money she lent us. She knew she wasn’t wanted or respected. Dad is clueless to the fact that we hang around only because of what we can get (and have gotten) from him.

This is still true of my brothers, but I no longer want any part of this charade.

Mom is gone now. No, she hasn’t passed away. She quietly moved out of our lives and I don’t know where she is. I don’t blame her for leaving. The abuse she took from us shouldn’t happen to a dog.

When I look back, I remember a mother who held a full-time job, kept a marvelous home, was a great cook and had a wonderful laugh and sensitivity. She didn’t smoke, drink or cheat on Dad. Was she perfect? Of course not; none of us is.

All she wanted after the divorce was to be loved by her kids and spend time with her grandkids. Now the grandkids are growing up without knowing this wonderful woman.

Mom, if you see this letter, I love you dearly.I hope you can someday forgive me for all the years of hateful remarks and unkind deeds. The pain you must have suffered is some-

DEAR A B B Y thing I’ll have to live with the rest of my life. You are a class act, and I’m going to live the rest of my life trying to emulate your values and quiet dignity. — Missing My Mom in Scottsdale, Ariz.

Dear Missing: If you’re truly sorry, it’s time to tell your mother personally and ask her forgiveness. Do whatever it takes to locate her, including hiring a private detective if necessary. It may be expensive, but use some of the money you got from Dear Old Dad. Dear Abby: I am an 81-yearold grandmother who blindly trusted that my annual Pap smear exam would provide early detection for any type of uterine cancer.

It took a diagnosis of uterine cancer that resulted in a subsequent hysterectomy for me to discover that this test is not enough. Although the Pap test should be part of a regular checkup, it only checks for cervical cancer. Except when hormone therapy is being taken, any bleeding, spotting or abnormal discharge following menopause is NOT normal and should be reported at once to your doctor. — Georgia Grandmother Dear Grandmother: I’m pleased that your cancer was caught in time. However, whether a woman is pre- or post-menopausal — and whether or not she is on hormone therapy — she should immediately alert her doctor to any abnormal bleeding, spotting or discharge. These symptoms are not just warning signs of cancer. They could also indicate a polyp that needs removal, or a sexually transmitted disease. — Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Horoscope: Happy Birthday for Thursday, Sept. 13, 2012

By Jacqueline Bigar This year the unexpected has become a theme in your life, especially as a partner or loved one tends to express an unpredictable energy. You often feel like you have to start over at square one and crawl your way back up to the top. This struggle is more symbolic than realistic. Bosses and higher-ups let you know how much they value your work. If you are single, you could meet someone very special through your work. Let it happen. If you are attached, the two of you enjoy making public appearances together.

Socializing is right up your alley. A fellow LEO understands you even better than you do.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHHH Your very playful style attracts quite a few people. Your creativity comes out when you relax and are yourself. Opportunity soars because of your ingenuity. Others respond to your ideas; you simply need to communicate them. Tonight: Love the moment.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHH Your principles work. You are able to sustain a great amount of change, even when it is unexpected.

You prove this time and time again.

Try not to place too much value on money, as it comes and goes.

Tonight: Home really is your castle.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH Keep talking and sharing your feelings. Others might surprise you by their actions and/or responses. The good news is that you have the ability to respond appropriately and with flexibility.

You attract people through your openness. Tonight: Say what you mean, and mean what you say.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Unexpected developments force your hand. You’ll see life through new eyes as a result, and humor helps you flow through what could be difficult moments. Use your intuition with your finances. Tonight: Go buy yourself that item you love.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHHH You greet life with a smile and a willingness to jump through hoops. How you see a personal situation could change drastically as associates come in with noteworthy ideas. Anything is possible; make it

so. Tonight: Allow your Leo charm to do its magic.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHH Know when to pull back and say little. The less said, the greater the flexibility you’ll have. Someone who makes an impact takes an unusual stance while you work overtime to catch up and understand what went through his or her mind. Tonight: The only answer is “yes.�

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHHH Look at what is going on around you. People seek you out. If you’re trying to concentrate or be studious, you can forget it. The ethers are declaring that it is time for you to socialize more. Opportunities head your way. Tonight: Follow the music.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH You cannot get around a certain responsibility that looks like it will have certain aspects that you will need time to figure out. You are not a free spirit. Honor your life’s demands, and you will be well-rewarded.

Tonight: Burn the candle at both ends.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHHH You must detach or else everything that’s happening around you could get jumbled. You will feel as if your mind is a maze. The more mental distance you gain, the better your choices will be. Someone close seems to share too much. Tonight: Why work when you can play?

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Someone comes to you with an unexpected proposition. Listen well, though know that you might block out some details, as you are a bit taken aback. See how you can work this idea into your life. You could be thrilled by the results. Tonight: One-on-one relating.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH Defer to others with the full knowledge as to what you need. You see key people around you being extremely domineering. Let them be — you cannot change them. Let them see the results of their actions. Use the freedom well. Tonight: Say “yes.�

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHH An even pace works, despite your tendency to change topics or actions and head in different directions. You might have to discipline yourself in order to achieve your day’s goals. Postpone spontaneity. Tonight: The time is now. Š 2012 by King Features Syndicate

The viewpoint With a wingspan of 23 to 27 inches, sharp-shinned hawks are some of the smallest birds of prey that fly over Central Oregon during the months of September and October as they migrate south for the winter. Other raptors that have been spotted flying over Green Ridge include bald and golden eagles, kestrels, merlins, peregrine falcons, turkey vultures, Cooper’s hawks and red-tailed hawks.

Low said it’s impossible to tell where the birds are coming from and where they’ll end up when they’ve finished their migration. Most of the raptors head south from areas in the Pacific Northwest and Canada to Central or South America, he said. But there are a few birds, like a roughlegged hawk he spotted in October, which spend their summers in the Arctic tundra and spend their winters in the relatively warmer climate of the northern United States.

“We only count the birds that pass this position,” Low said. He explained that this way we could tell the migrating raptors — the ones that flew over Green Ridge on their way south — from the locals, or resident raptors that lived in the area and were just out for a quick flight.

Low and the other volunteers planned to stay at their viewpoint until 5 p.m. — the Pole Creek Fire started that morning may be affecting the viewpoint because of its smoke — as they gazed through their binoculars and swapped stories about previous hawk-watching trips.

But Meryl and I, who between us only had one set of binoculars and a camera lens that wasn’t powerful enough to catch the birds, decided we’d been on top of the ridge long enough after a couple of hours and headed home. We probably would have stuck around much longer had we brought a comfortable chair and some better equipment — and come on a day closer to the migration season’s peak when the raptor counts were much higher.

My conversation with Joseph Dane, the development director for HawkWatch International, might also have encouraged us to stay a bit longer.

The count Amanda Wilhelm, of the High Desert Museum, said she counted nine raptors

— six sharp-shinned hawks, a turkey vulture, a Cooper’s hawk, and an American kestrel — during the time Meryl and I were up on the ridge.

She promised we’d see 10 times as many birds later in the month.

But she didn’t tell us what happens with the counts once we came down the mountain.

Luckily, my conversation with Dane, whose group manages nine official hawk watch sites in the Western United States and collects data from dozens more, filled in the missing pieces.

“We’re looking to see if there are any major shifts in raptor populations,” Dane said.

HawkWatch International can do this because bird watchers at its official sites — like the one atop Bonney Butte in the Mount Hood National Forest — have been monitoring their raptor populations for at least 10 years and have enough data to tell when something is different. The Green Ridge site has been in operation for about seven years. While it shares information with HawkWatch International, it is not considered an official part of the program.

Once they have a steady picture of an area’s rap-

tor population that’s been gleaned by counting birds at HawkWatch’s migration sites and by tracking the ones it has banded with special tags, he said it’s possible to tell when something’s not right and is causing the country’s birds of prey some problems.

Significant drops in the bald eagle and peregrine falcon counts HawkWatch International monitored in the late 1970s and the early 1980s helped the organization track the effect of pesticides on bird populations. The counts are currently being used to discover how cheatgrass, an invasive species, is affecting raptor populations in the West and to determine where wind farms should not be located.

“There’s a lot of work to be done,” he said. “American kestrel populations are dropping and we still haven’t figured out why.”

Knowing that I was part of this work and, in some limited fashion, helping to solve the mystery surrounding the American kestrel, a species of falcon with a wingspan of only 20 to 24 inches, probably would have convinced me to stay on top of that ridge a little bit longer.

sures and conditions, check InciWeb: http://inciweb.org/ incident/3244/.

In the Mount Jefferson Wilderness area, trail conditions have been consistent over the past few months. The Jefferson Lake, Sugarpine Ridge, Brush Creek and Mento Lake trails are still blocked by overgrown brush and a high number of fallen trees due to fire impacts, and should be considered im-

passable and inadvisable for any level of recreationist.

Trail users should be aware that there are some bow hunting seasons in effect and they may see some hunter activity.

Youth crews will be working along the Metolius River late in the September, finishing the last of seven new bridges in that area. The trails will remain open.

Deschutes County settles discrimination suit for $70K

By Sheila G. Miller The Bulletin

Deschutes County has paid $70,000 to a former jail employee who alleged she was discriminated against during her two-year tenure as a corrections nurse.

Dora Rivera Murillo filed a federal complaint against the county and the county Sheriff’s Office in June 2011. She alleged she was demeaned and humiliated in front of co-workers, held to a different standard of conduct than

her co-workers and denied overtime pay for hours she worked.

Murillo, who is Hispanic, also alleged she was referred to as the “brown� or “Indian nurse� and was at least once physically assaulted by a

co-worker, who hit her with a chair. She said when she complained about the mistreatment she was retaliated against.

In November 2010 Murillo resigned.

SALEM — If you’re a substitute teacher in Central Oregon, you may be eligible for unemployment benefits. Or you may not be.

Of the 500 substitutes employed by the High Desert Education Service District, about 120 have at one time received unemployment benefits, Superintendent John Rexford said.

The tab for those benefits totaled $30,000 last year and more than $100,000 the year before.

The problem is that no one seems to know which substitutes qualify for unemployment benefits and when. Rexford, who supplies substitutes to Central Oregon school districts, has enlisted the help of Rep. John Huffman, R-The Dalles, with the hope of clearing up the uncertainty with legislation in 2013. “We just want to get it clarified,� Rexford said.

Craig Spivey, spokesman for the state Employment Department, said most of the laws dictating who receives unemployment benefits are federal, meaning they can’t be changed at the state level.

Spivey understands, however, that certainty could be helpful. “It does make a lot of sense that the ESDs would want to put in some clarification,� Spivey said.

The first of two fire suppression grant payments disputed by Deschutes County and the Federal Emergency Management Agency is nearly settled. But the second grant, where a more substantial sum is up for debate, requires further discussion.

The county says it will receive an outstanding $4,705 payment from FEMA for a grant issued in 2008. The grant paid for fire suppression across the county, but payouts were disputed in 2010 when FEMA claimed some work to clear brush was completed outside of preapproved zones.

proving those zones would have been approved regardless, and now expects to be paid the disputed $4,705.

The Oregon Office of

Emergency Management, which helps administer the federal funds, agrees the county met the guidelines for work but says FEMA must still approve the final payment. “FEMA has to review what we said in the letter we sent them to officially close out the grant,� said Dennis Sigrist, state hazard mitigation officer for Oregon Emergency Management. “But the notion is that Deschutes County has validated all their information ... and all that was validated and certified

by FEMA.�

Sigrist said he doesn’t have a time frame for when FEMA will finalize the payment.

O N Portland approves fluoridation; Lane County opponents vow to keep up fight considers broad

By Steven DuBois The Associated Press

PORTLAND — The City Council approved a plan Wednesday to add fluoride to Portland’s water, meaning Oregon’s biggest city is no longer the largest holdout in the U.S. The ordinance calls for city water to be fluoridated by March 2014.

Dental experts say fluoride is effective in fighting cavities.

Opponents of public fluoridation say it’s unsafe and violates an individual’s right to consent to medication.

“Reasonable people can disagree, but the science is on the side of fluoridation,” Mayor Sam Adams said after the unanimous vote.

Opponents also say council members rushed into action without a public vote. They plan to collect almost 20,000 signatures in the next 30 days to force a referendum early next year — before the mineral is added to a water supply that serves about 900,000 people in Portland and a few suburbs.

“There is no question that we are going to need a lot of financial and volunteer support to make this happen, but we are seeing a major backlash to how the City Council has handled this,” said Kim Kaminski, executive director of Oregon Citizens for Safe Drinking Water.

Public fluoridation remains an emotional topic in many parts of the country. The issue arose in Phoenix this week when a public stir prompted re-examination of a policy in place since 1989. After a contentious hearing Tuesday, council members voted to continue adding fluoride to the water in the nation’s sixthlargest city.

Wichita, Kan., residents will vote in November whether to add fluoride to the city’s water supply.

Portland’s drinking water already contains naturally occurring fluoride, though not at levels considered to be effective at fighting cavities.

Voters in Portland twice rejected fluoridation before ap-

Angel Lambart holds her daughter, Gwendolyn, 18 months, as she gives a thumbs down Wednesday during a City Council vote on whether to add fluoride to city water in Portland. The City Council approved a plan Wednesday to add fluoride to Portland’s water, meaning Oregon’s biggest city is no longer the largest holdout in the U.S.

proving it in 1978. That plan was overturned before any fluoride was ever added to the water. Before announcing his vote, Commissioner Randy Leonard said the passion from both sides showed why previous councils sidestepped the matter: “This issue is not for the faint of heart.”

Dozens of opponents turned out for the vote that went as expected. They booed, hissed and held signs that said “Public water, public vote.” When it became apparent that commissioners would indeed approve the ordinance, they stood with their backs turned.

Regina LaRocca, who had her back turned, said the

“money and power” on the side of fluoridation was difficult to overcome, but commissioners might have altered their votes had more people flooded City Hall.

“I’m disappointed in the people of Portland, and their apathy,” she said.

Last week, 227 people — most of them opponents — signed up to testify at a public hearing that lasted 6 1⁄2 hours.

Commissioners said now is the time to act because Portland children have more dental problems than kids from neighboring states that fluoridate, and adding the mineral to the water is the most safe, effective and affordable way

to address it.

Seventy-three percent of the U.S. population drinks water treated with fluoride — more than three times the rate in Oregon.

Fluoride opponents contend the dental benefits of fluoride are small and don’t outweigh the cons. Several pointed to a recent study by researchers from the Harvard School of Public Health, which appeared in Environmental Health Perspectives. It showed that Chinese children who had high levels of naturally occurring fluoride in their drinking water had lower IQs than those who lived in villages with less fluoride in their water.

“These people are putting their children’s teeth above their children’s brains, and that’s ridiculous,” said Paul Connett, author of the book “The Case Against Fluoride,” who traveled to the meeting from New York.

Residents with thyroid issues, kidney disease and multiple chemical sensitivity worry fluoridation will make their lives worse. Others are concerned it can cause cancer, autism and other problems.

Commissioners counter that more than 200 million Americans drink water with added fluoride, and it doesn’t appear to have caused great harm. Moreover, it is endorsed by most health organizations, including the American Medical Association and Centers for Disease Control.

Fluoride supporters and opponents agreed that fluoridation alone won’t solve Portland’s dental problems. They say parents must stress proper hygiene and stop giving their children drinks loaded with sugar.

But the commissioners say fluoridation will at least give children, particularly those from families without money or education, some protection against tooth decay.

“A 3-year-old child can’t be expected to take responsibility for their dental care,” Commissioner Dan Saltzman said, to which a frustrated member of the audience shouted: “Their parents can.”

Bath salts implicated in Talent man’s death

By Chris Conrad Mail Tribune, Medford

TALENT — The Talent man who died after a violent struggle with police last week might have used the dangerous drug “bath salts” hours before his death, according to family members.

The father of Christoph LaDue Jr., 23, said a baggie that contained bath salts was found in his home, suggesting LaDue had smoked the drug before his deadly encounter with police.

“If he hadn’t have used that stuff, he would be alive today,” said an emotional Christoph LaDue Sr. “This bath salts stuff killed my boy.”

Jackson County sheriff’s detectives did not return calls seeking comment. Police normally won’t divulge details of a case until after an investigation is completed.

However, LaDue is convinced his son had used bath salts because his behavior that day was very much out of character.

Police were called to LaDue’s home on Wagner Creek Road after a neighbor said he ran to the home and tried to enter.

LaDue Sr. said his son did not mean any harm to the neighbor but was trying to seek help after experiencing the effects of the bath salts.

“He kept screaming, ‘Dad, I’m on fire, Dad, I’m on fire,’ ” LaDue Sr. said.

“He wasn’t trying to break into someone’s house to cause harm. He was a gentle soul.”

The family struggled with LaDue before he broke free and ran to the neighbor’s house.

“... This is the classic description of what happens when someone does bath salts. You have the elevated temperature ... the violence.

This is what we are seeing across the country.”

— Dr. James Hammel, psychiatrist

Police arrived and battled with LaDue, using Tasers that seemed to have no effect.

Finally, the officers fought LaDue to the ground and were able to handcuff him.

Ladue’s heart stopped shortly afterward. Nearby medical personnel, who had come to the initial call for help and had been standing by, immediately attempted to resuscitate Ladue before transporting him to Rogue Regional Medical Center. He died an hour later.

LaDue suffered from schizophrenia but had no history of violence, his father said.

“He was a good kid and was doing so well,” LaDue Sr. said.

“He was going to (Rogue Community College) and playing drums in a band.”

LaDue did not understand his son’s bizarre behavior that day, at least not until the empty bath salts package was discovered.

Bath salts are a type of designer drug created by backalley chemists and marketed to young people. The drug is a stimulant in the manner of methamphetamine, but also has the euphoric, hallucinogenic effects of Ecstasy.

The drug can be smoked, snorted or injected. It has been known to cause severe agitation, paranoia, chest pains, suicidal thoughts and actions, and violence, and could lead to permanent brain damage.

The Oregon Pharmacy Board declared bath salts an illegal drug last April.

The bath salts label is a marketing ploy to make the drug seem harmless. Hammel said the drug is easy to obtain on the Internet and that parents who find a package of it in their kids’ bedroom might be duped into thinking it’s harmless.

Dr. James Hammel, a psychiatrist who graduated from Harvard Medical School, has seen the devastating effects of bath salts in a number of patients in recent years.

Hammel said he has treated a steady flow of bath salts users since he arrived in the Rogue Valley last year. He said LaDue’s condition was common among bath salts patients.

“I didn’t treat (LaDue), but this is the classic description of what happens when someone does bath salts,” Hammel said.

“You have the elevated tem-

perature ... the violence. This is what we are seeing across the country.”

A man admitted to Rogue Regional Medical Center who was believed to be under the influence of bath salts barricaded himself in a third-floor room and injured a police officer during an epic struggle earlier this year.

Local police have said that bath salts users have abnormally high pain tolerance, making Tasers ineffective.

They also have shown higherthan-average strength and overall bizarre behavior.

Hammel said he has seen the drug raise someone’s body temperature to 107.5 degrees Fahrenheit, which is deadly.

“This drug is going to be a problem in our community for years to come,” Hammel said.

“It’s something we are going to struggle with.”

LaDue Sr. is hoping an autopsy and a toxicology report scheduled on his son will provide some answers.

Until then, the family has to face a new life without the young man.

“We need to make sure no one else get a hold of this stuff,” LaDue said.

smoking bans The Associated Press EUGENE — Public health officials in Lane County are talking about broadening smoking bans on county property, including its 4,600 acres of parks, campgrounds and other recreation facilities.

County officials acknowledged it would be hard to bar smoking in parks but said it’s in tune with other efforts to reduce tobacco use.

“It is something that we are committed to,” said Jason Davis, a spokesman for the county health agency.

It would be up to the county commission to approve any restrictions.

The county has 73 parks and other recreation facilities.

Among the heavily used open spaces is Wayne Morse Free Speech Plaza at its administration building in downtown Eugene.

State law already bans smoking in enclosed workplaces statewide and within 10 feet of entrances, exits or windows of workplaces. Recent proposals have sought to broaden that area.

The University of Oregon has banned smoking on its campus and other properties, including sports venues, starting Sept. 1. Lane Community College bans smok-

ing on campus except in two small designated areas in parking lots.

Last month, Gov. John Kitzhaber issued an executive order banning tobacco use on all property surrounding state buildings.

That ban currently doesn’t apply to college campuses or to places meant for the public, such as state parks. However, Kitzhaber is asking governing boards to ban or restrict tobacco in those places, too.

In Lane County, nearly 17 percent of adults smoke; as do 15 percent of 11th-graders and 8 percent of eighth-graders.

Health agency director Alicia Hays said the county already is moving toward smoke-free facilities and the intention is to expand that to all county properties.

The agency is meeting with the public and the county staff to figure out how a tobacco ban should be implemented rather than whether it should happen, she said.

“There’s a lot going on around tobacco-free. This is a chance for our community to come together and hear why and have discussions and voice their opinion,” she said. “We’re just one of many entities moving forward with this.”

The men reportedly got into a fight late Sunday in a Fred Meyer parking lot.

Labonte was flown to a Portland hospital after the altercation and died early Monday.

WEST LINN — A threeyear battle over a swimming pool in the backyard of a West Linn home has ended with a municipal court judge ruling that the homeowners built the pool in a wetland without a permit.

The next step is for the city and Troy and Gina Bundy to decide whether they have to remove the 1,100-square-foot pool and whether they will have to pay a fine of as much as $360,000.

A judge may decide the matter at a Sept. 20 hearing.

hanging standards make it difficult to make sense of the latest Oregon student achievement scores, which were released this week.

For 2011-12, the state raised benchmarks for elementary and middle school reading and science.

The previous year, it had raised the benchmarks for math. Students who score above the benchmarks have met the standards, and those who score below have not.

The state had good reason to set more rigorous standards, having determined that the benchmarks were set too low to align with national and international expectations. Those changes, as well as additional graduation requirements, move Oregon in the right direction.

An unfortunate result, however, is that parents and other taxpayers, as well as educators themselves, struggle to make sense of applesto-oranges comparisons.

For example, a simple comparison of the statewide percentage of third-graders who met reading standards appears to show a drop to 70 percent last year from 83 percent in the previous year. In fact, there was a 10 percent gain if both sets of scores are rated against the same benchmark. In eighth-grade science, there’s really a 1 percent drop, although it appears to be a 5 percent drop.

To see progress over time, the results have to be recalculated so

they can be compared. Those recalculations show plenty of progress, especially in reading, but also areas of weakness, particularly in science.

The new standards, sadly, reveal that Oregon students have a long way to go: Only 63 percent of all students are meeting math standards, 66 percent in science and 72 percent in reading.

Some local results are stronger. For instance, Bend-La Pine’s overall pass rates are higher than the state’s by 9 percent in math, 9.6 percent in reading, 8.1 percent in science and 7.1 percent in writing.

But that still leaves nearly 30 percent not meeting benchmarks in math, nearly 20 percent in reading, and roughly 25 percent in science and writing.

In addition to raising its testing benchmarks, Oregon is one of 45 states to adopt Common Core State Standards. Districts are in the process of implementing that curriculum, based on national expectations aligned with international standards. New tests, called the Smarter Balanced Assessment, are expected to replace the current state tests by spring 2015. They offer the hope of tests that can be compared across time and across the nation, allowing a better evaluation of student progress.

Gill-net compromise makes ‘no’ an easy vote

O

ne item Oregonians will see on their general election ballots next month is Ballot Measure 81, which would ban commercial gill-net fishing on the Oregon side of the Columbia River.

Supporters of the measure said this week they will quit fighting for its passage, opting instead for a compromise proposal put forward

by Gov. John Kitzhaber.

The compromise helps make a “no� vote on 81 an easy choice.

Gill netting as practiced in Oregon waters is not the barbaric practice opponents say it is. The state regulates every aspect of it, from net size to the amount of time nets may stay in the water to requiring training for commercial gill netters. Commercial seasons can run hours, not days, when runs are low. In fact, Indian tribes that have fishing rights along the Columbia oppose the ban, noting, correctly, that it would simply mean recreational, not commercial, fishermen would catch the same fish. About 200 commercial fishermen work gill nets on the Columbia.

Kitzhaber’s proposal, meanwhile, would limit gill-net fishing

to side channels of the Columbia. It would have to be approved by the Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission and would not prohibit gill-net fishing on the Washington side of the river. Kitzhaber has said he hopes to persuade Washingtonians to adopt a matching policy for that state’s side of the river.

We don’t believe that managing natural resources by ballot box is the best way to go about such things, for it puts emotion, not reason or science, in control of the decision-making. Kitzhaber’s proposed compromise may not be perfect, but it does allow ODFW to exercise its best informed judgment on the matter.

Meanwhile, Kitzhaber’s proposal includes a bone to commercial fishermen in the form of increased hatchery production of salmon to replace those unavailable because of the ban. Commercial fishermen remain leery of the state’s ability to supply enough fish to accomplish that, but it surely is worth a try. It’s a better approach by far than the outright ban on commercial gill netting Measure 81 would require.

My Nickel’s Worth How are we spending our money?

For some time now I have been interested in how and where we (USA) are spending our money.

So I write to suggest that on a regular basis, once a month, you report to readers how much we are giving to other countries and, if known, what the money is being paid for. I recall hearing a snatch of story now and then reporting that our president or our secretary of state has visited such and such a country and has promised several millions or some huge amount to that country.

I should like to see a list of all countries we are giving dollars to.

I want it to appear regularly so we can count on finding it and also to impress on the minds of Americans what we are doing in the world.

When a disaster occurs, such as a tsunami, I am aware that our Navy is on the scene far ahead of all others to help. This is just one of many places we step in, and I would like to see the cost estimate for these things.

Perhaps a spot in world news, on the 15th of the month.

It would also be appropriate to list the names of any and all countries where we have servicemen and women and a reminder of how long they have been there.

I want to know what part of our government approves of these expenditures and the amounts. Is it all approved by the House of Representatives?

Religious beliefs don’t belong in closet I feel compelled to respond to recent

letters found in My Nickel’s Worth. I find it to be a disconcerting thought that, according to David Smullin’s letter on July 26, religion is something to be hidden in order for “all to get along well.� Or, as stated by Sherry Cupp on Aug. 28, that because a person chooses to exercise and exhibit his or her belief, that it is perceived as being “forced on others,� and most recently Ethan Singer’s Aug. 29 letter to “save God and prayer for church teams.�

There seems to be a misconception that Christianity is something to be pulled out of one’s closet and donned only for a couple of hours on Sunday. Speaking for myself, it is who I am in all areas of life: wife, mother, worker, citizen. I could no more separate myself from being a Christian than I could from being a woman.

Of course there are societies that believe that is something to be hidden as well. Thankfully, in this country, I still have the freedom to outwardly be both.

Businesses, taxpayers provide infrastructure In commenting on Keith Feilzer’s Sept. 2 exception to what he says is a noncontextual presentation of Obama’s “you didn’t build that� quote: Oh, yes, conservatives got it perfectly right. Obama’s beliefs obviously demonstrate that he assumes that government made the infrastructure possible for business people to succeed. No, it was the business people and all state and federal taxpayers who made it possible for infrastructure to be built. In many instances businesses demanded that infrastructure come to them.

Our government survives because

business and taxpayers support it, not the other way around.

False attack by Brown about voting On Aug. 30, Secretary of State Kate Brown posted a false attack online and to her supporters, stating, “Knute Buehler supports the movement to restrict ballot access that is gaining momentum in states across the country. If Buehler wins, he will support efforts that make it harder for citizens to exercise their right to vote.� Seems Kate Brown has once again lowered herself to make false and baseless claims to fire up her base, and distract voters from the real issues Oregonians care about.

If there is one candidate in this race who has worked hard to include more voters in the election process, it’s Buehler. He has worked on ballot measures to grant greater access to Independents, unaffiliated voters and minor parties in Oregon’s primary elections. Furthermore, this past spring, Buehler helped persuade the Republican Party to allow nonaffiliates to vote in the primary.

Brown responded by refusing to send them Republican ballots, and forcing qualified voters to jump through more hoops to actually get a ballot. Disenfranchised voters anyone? As we all know, actions speak louder than words.

Buehler is the Republican and Independent Party nominee for Oregon secretary of state, and this is his first run for public office. Please support him this November to help get Oregon working again.

Are men failing to adapt to succeed in new economy?

Y

ou’re probably aware of the basic trends. The financial rewards to education have increased over the past few decades, but men failed to get the memo.

In elementary and high school, male academic performance is lagging. Boys earn three-quarters of the D’s and F’s. By college, men are clearly behind. Only 40 percent of bachelor’s degrees go to men, along with 40 percent of master’s degrees.

Thanks to their lower skills, men are dropping out of the labor force. In 1954, 96 percent of the American men between the ages of 25 and 54 worked.

Today, that number is down to 80 percent. Male labor force participation has reached an all-time low.

Millions of men are collecting disability. Even many of those who do have a job are doing poorly. According to Michael Greenstone of the Hamilton Project, annual earnings for median prime-age males have dropped by 28 percent over the past 40 years.

Men still dominate the tippy-top of

the corporate ladder because many women take time off to raise children, but women lead or are gaining nearly everywhere else. Women in their 20s outearn men in their 20s. Twelve out of the 15 fastest-growing professions are dominated by women. Over the years, many of us have embraced a certain theory to explain men’s economic decline. It is that the information-age economy rewards traits that, for neurological and cultural reasons, women are more likely to possess.

To succeed today, you have to be able to sit still and focus attention in school at an early age. You have to be emotionally sensitive and aware of context. You have to communicate smoothly. For genetic and cultural reasons, many men stink at these tasks.

But, in her fascinating new book, “The End of Men,� Hanna Rosin posits a different theory. It has to do with adaptability. Women, Rosin argues, are like immigrants who have moved to a new country. They see a new social context, and they flexibly adapt to

DAVID BROOKS new circumstances. Men are like immigrants who have physically moved to a new country but who have kept their minds in the old one. They speak the old language. They follow the old mores. Men are more likely to be rigid; women are more fluid.

This theory has less to do with innate traits and more to do with social position. When there’s big social change, the people who were on the top of the old order are bound to cling to the old ways. The people who were on the bottom are bound to experience a burst of energy. They’re going to explore their new surroundings more enthusiastically.

Rosin reports from working-class Alabama. The women she meets are flooding into new jobs and new opportunities. The men are waiting around

for the jobs that left and are never coming back. They are strangely immune to new options. In the AuburnOpelika region, the median female income is 140 percent of the median male income.

Rosin also reports from college campuses where women are pioneering new social arrangements. The usual story is that men are exploiting the new campus hookup culture in order to get plenty of sex without romantic commitments. Rosin argues that, in fact, women support the hookup culture. It allows them to have sex and fun without any time-consuming distractions from their careers.

Rosin is not saying that women are winners in a global gender war or that they are doing super simply because men are doing worse. She’s just saying women are adapting to today’s economy more flexibly and resiliently than men.

A study by the National Federation of Independent Business found that small businesses owned by women

outperformed male-owned small business during the last recession. In finance, women who switch firms are more likely to see their performance improve, whereas men are more likely to see theirs decline. There’s even evidence that women are better able to adjust to divorce. Today, more women than men see their incomes rise by 25 percent after a marital breakup.

Forty years ago, men and women adhered to certain ideologies, what it meant to be a man or a woman. Young women today, Rosin argues, are more like clean slates, having abandoned both feminist and prefeminist preconceptions. Men still adhere to the masculinity rules, which limits their vision and their movement.

If she’s right, then men will have to be less like Achilles, imposing their will on the world, and more like Odysseus, the crafty, many-sided sojourner.

They’ll have to acknowledge that they are strangers in a strange land. — David Brooks is a columnist for The New York Times.

Fewer trees dying from pine beetles

Continued from C1 Looking at weather predictions stretching into next week, National Weather Service forecaster Alan Polan said the cycle of morning inversions will keep repeating. “I don’t see much in the way of relief,� he said.

The Pole Creek Fire will likely keep putting off smoke for awhile, said Katie Lighthall, spokeswoman for the interagency team managing the fire. The fire grew by about 200 acres in the past couple of days, having burned 4,583 acres as of Wednesday night. It is still considered 5 percent contained.

Firefighters today will be keeping a watch on how the fire responds to a slight change in weather. “It is supposed to get a little hotter and a little drier,�

Lighthall said.

The Pole Creek Fire started Sunday morning, causing the evacuation of about 30 hikers and campers from the northeast corner of the Three Sisters Wilderness and destroying four cars parked at the Pole Creek Trailhead.

The Associated Press BILLINGS, Mont. — A pine beetle outbreak that has left many Western states with vast stands of dead and dying trees has eased for the second consecutive year, the U.S. Forest Service said Monday.

With fewer trees left for the beetles to eat, officials said a 2011 aerial survey recorded beetle-killed trees on 3.8 million acres of public and private land. That’s down by more than half from 2009, when about 9 million acres with dead trees were tallied.

But the good news is tempered by more trees dying at higher elevations as beetles take advantage of warm winters to gain a new foothold, said Robert Mangold, the Forest Service’s acting associate deputy chief for research and development. And with trees on roughly 42 million acres killed by various beetles since 2000, it could take decades for some forests to fully recover.

Subs Continued from C1 “Because, let’s be honest, they don’t want to pay unemployment if they don’t have to and if they can understand that (one) position might get it. ‌ It affects the way they do business.â€?

Right now, Spivey said, it’s difficult to make blanket statements about who is eligible for benefits. Generally, a substitute teacher working directly with the school district doesn’t qualify. For a teacher working through the education service district, however, the law is more ambiguous. “You could have a situation

FEMA Continued from C1 Still in question is what the county is due from a 2008 FEMA grant. The unpaid balance comes to $96,199.17.

FEMA is also questioning the scope of work on the 2008 grant. The county has submitted similar proof that work would be approved for the grant. Still, it must discuss the matter with both Oregon Emergency Management and

Deschutes County Sheriff Larry Blanton and interim

Beetle outbreaks can lead to more intense wildfires and hurt timber companies by making some trees unsuitable to harvest.

Montana recorded the most beetle kill acreage in 2011, with dead trees across almost one million acres. Idaho, Colorado, Wyoming and Oregon also had significant losses.

Mountain pine beetle are native to the region and their outbreaks are cyclical, but the current one has been the worst in at least three decades. Mangold said it was too soon to say if the decreasing mortality seen over the last two years is a trend that will continue.

The beetle’s 2011 retreat helped drive a nationwide decline in trees killed by insects and disease. Dead trees were seen on 6.4 million acres of public and private land in 2011, compared to 9.2 million acres in 2010.

tricts as well. “This is where it can get really confusing,� Spivey said. “People ask, ‘Why do they get unemployment and I don’t?’�

Federal law says ESD employees who spend 50 percent or more of their time physically working at a school fall under the same category as a school district employee and would not qualify for benefits. If they spend less time in a school setting, they are put into the “ESD category,� Spivey said, and could qualify for benefits.

And there are instances where substitute teachers can draw benefits during the summer.

Superintendent George

Murdock of the Douglas Education Service District in Roseburg said he shares Rexford’s concern. Some of the 400 substitute teachers his district employs receive unemployment checks during the summer months. “When you work in a school it’s seasonal work,â€? he said. “I question why ‌ they get unemployment while school is not in session. Because we’re strapped, PERS (public employees retirement system) have gone up. Our budgets have been cut. And we’re having a hard time making ends meet.â€?

FEMA to see if the work sites can be approved after the fact.

County Forester Ed Keith said he’s optimistic all sides can come to an accord. He also said it appears the county is making way on a third, stalled grant issued in 2010.

The 2010 grant, shared

by Deschutes, Crook and Klamath counties, was paused while the parties involved hashed out the scope of work issue over the previous grants. “The significance of this

is that this has broken loose some work on the (2010) grant,� Keith said. “FEMA has sent us some preliminary steps to take in order to get the ball rolling on (the 2010 grant).�

Former Deschutes County Forester Joe Stutler has stayed with the county to assist in negotiating the grant problem.

He was unavailable for comment Wednesday, but Stutler has long said he wants to see work begin on the 2010 grant before the federal fiscal year

ends Sept. 30. His fear is that funds will be reappropriated to help balance a struggling federal budget.

Sigrist said it is unlikely funds from the 2010 grant will be available by the end of the month. Oregon Emergency Management has taken the position that the funds won’t dissolve at the end of the federal fiscal year, but roll over into the next budget.

County Administrator Erik Kropp signed the settlement agreement Sept. 5.

According to the settlement, the county and sheriff’s office agree to pay Murillo $70,000. Of that, $7,000 is “allocated toward (Murillo’s) claim for wage loss,� and the

rest is divided equally among each of Murillo’s seven claims for noneconomic damages.

The settlement doesn’t admit any liability and includes both a nondisclosure agreement and a nondisparagement clause.

Neither Murillo’s attorney,

Scott Hunt, nor county counsel Mark Pilliod could be reached for comment.

In June, the county had already spent about $94,000 in legal bills related to the Murillo lawsuit.

FEATURED OBITUARY

New York Times News Service

NEW YORK — Albert Marre, the Tony Award-winning director of the original Broadway production of “Man of La Mancha� — and three of its four Broadway revivals — died in Manhattan on Sept.

4. He was 87.

His wife, Mimi Turque Marre, confirmed his death.

Marre directed or staged more than two-dozen Broadway shows during his more than 50 years in theater, among them the musicals “Kismet� and “Milk and Honey.� But it was “Man of La Mancha,� the musical adaptation of “Don Quixote� (written by Dale Wasserman, with lyrics by Joe Darion and music by Mitch Leigh), that brought him his greatest acclaim.

The famous story of a deluded would-be knight, presented as a play within a play performed by the novel’s author, Miguel de Cervantes, and his fellow prisoners as he awaits trial during the Spanish Inquisition, “Man of La Mancha� began off-Broadway but soon moved uptown and went on to become one of the biggest hits

What started the fire near the trailhead remains under investigation.

In and around Sisters, residents are becoming used to the morning smoke from the Pole Creek Fire.

While it is smoky outside, Leland Bliss, facilities manager for the Sisters School District, said he’s been recirculating air in the district’s three schools inside to keep the air clean. He brings fresh air into the buildings when the outside air clears up by 10 or 11 a.m.

When the smoke is thick, Sisters City Manager Eileen Stein said people should avoid being out in it. “Our best advice to people who are sensitive to the smoke is to stay inside until things clear up,� she said.

Even indoors, the smoke can become a problem, said Rebecca Ferrell, 42, who lives in the Crossroads subdivision near Sisters. Around 1 a.m. Thursday she said the smoke became strong enough to smell indoors. “It gives you a headache, it makes your ears scratchy,� she said. “It is not good for you.�

where some ESD substitutes would get unemployment and some wouldn’t,� Spivey said. “It depends on the type of work and it does get confusing.

They have the same employer, but their work is categorized differently.�

Whether substitutes qualify for unemployment compensation or not depends on the type of job they held, the type of job they are going back to and if they have a reasonable assurance of going back to work.

The amount of time they spent physically in a classroom also matters.

There are different rules governing school districts and education service dis-

in Broadway history. It ran on Broadway for 2,328 performances, from November 1965 through June 1971.

The original cast starred Richard Kiley as Don Quixote; Irving Jacobson as his squire, Sancho Panza; and Joan Diener (Marre’s second wife) as the servant who becomes his true love, Dulcinea. But the show was probably best known for one song: “The Impossible Dream.� “One does not expect complete fidelity to Cervantes outside his pages — who reads him these days? — but there are charm, gallantry and a delicacy of spirit in this reincarnation of Quixote,� Howard Taubman wrote in The New York Times.

Marre won the Tony for best director of a musical. He remained closely identified with the show for many years, directing its Broadway revivals in 1972, 1977 and 1992, as well as numerous productions around the country and internationally.

Marre made his Broadway debut as an actor and associate director of the 1950 revival of

John Vanbrugh’s comedy “The Relapse.� He directed “Kismet,� for which he received the 1954 Donaldson Award, a precursor to the Tonys.

In 1956, Marre was nominated for a Tony for his direction of “The Chalk Garden,� Enid Bagnold’s play about a disturbed child under the care of her grandmother and a governess. In 1961 he directed “Milk and Honey,� a story about the birth of Israel. Featuring songs

by Jerry Herman, it was nominated for five Tonys, including best musical (although Marre did not receive a nomination).

Marre, who was known as Albie, graduated from Oberlin College and then served in the Navy during World War II. After the war he attended Harvard Law School, but stopped going to classes after he and several fellow students created what became the Brattle Theater in Cambridge, Mass., one of the country’s first classical repertory companies. There he met the actress Jan Farrand, whom he married and later divorced.

His second wife, Diener, died in 2006. Three years later he married Mimi Turque.

PHIL’S TRAILHEAD FIRE

Karen Kenlan / The Bulletin

Firefighters quickly stopped a wildfire Wednesday afternoon close to the popular Phil’s Trailhead west of Bend. Firefighters kept it to a quarter of an acre. Jean Nelson-Dean, spokeswoman for the Deschutes National Forest, said there is no apparent connection between the Pole Creek Fire, which started Sunday at a trailhead southwest of Sisters, and the fire at Phil’s Trailhead. The Phil’s Trailhead fire was started by a person; the cause is under investigation.

Skydiving company sues Creswell over ban The Associated Press EUGENE — A skydiving company has sued the city of Creswell, Ore., contending the city’s no-parachuting rules at the municipal airport have cost the company more than $700,000 over the past six years.

The Register-Guard reports that Eugene Skydivers filed suit Friday in Lane County Circuit Court.

The company accuses the city of violating a lease agree-

ment when city officials outlawed parachute landing at Hobby Field in 2006. The ban went into effect after private pilots complained about nearly being hit by skydiving planes while flying near the airport, and after reports of skydivers jumping through clouds.

Eugene Skydivers has asked the Federal Aviation Administration to restore landing rights for skydivers at Hobby Field. A decision in that case is expected in November.

PREP FOOTBALL: FRIDAY PREVIEW

UConn coach Calhoun retiring

BRISTOL, Conn.

— Former ESPN anchor George Grande says that when he signed on to host the first SportsCenter in 1979, he had a feeling there might be a market for more than just the three minutes of sports people were used to seeing on the local news.

He was right. Today, ESPN will air its 50,000th SportsCenter, the network’s flagship show of highlights, news and analysis that has had a major impact on the nation’s sports culture.

“It’s changed the expectation of every sports fan in the United States,” said Dennis Deninger, a former ESPN executive who now runs the sports communications graduate program at Syracuse University. “We now expect to see highlights from every game, wherever it is played. If there is something odd or strange anywhere — a triple play — we expect to be able to see it, and see it immediately.

That’s what this show has done.”

It also has given the job of sportscaster national celebrity status and blurred some of the lines between entertainment and news. When SportsCenter first aired, about 1.4 million homes had access to ESPN, according to the network.

That figure is about 98.3 million today.

n the fishing paradise of Central Oregon, we are surrounded by so many world-class angling opportunities just an hour’s drive away that sometimes we forget that fine fishing can be found right in Bend.

Joined by Bulletin photographer Ryan Brennecke, I left the office at noon on Tuesday with the goal of flyfishing three select spots along the DesMARK chutes River MORICAL — all within the Bend city limits.

Our first stop was along the river south of Bill Healy Memorial Bridge, basically across the street (Century Drive) from The Bulletin. This area is not as popular with anglers as it is with runners and hikers, but we would do our best not to hook a jogger with a wayward back cast.

The late-summer sun gave the riffled water a serene sparkle as we cast out copper john nymphs, hoping to catch some rainbow or brown trout.

Unbeaten La Pine set to face Ridgeview

. Ril O.B

NEW YORK — Jim Calhoun has spent more than half his life as a head basketball coach, never venturing far from the New England area where he was born.

Calhoun Between high schools and colleges in Massachusetts and Connecticut, he racked up 873 wins — most of them coming at his beloved UConn, where he ran the men’s program for 26 years and won three national titles.

Recently, though, the 70-year-old Hall of Famer has struggled with health problems, including a fractured hip last month that put him on crutches. On Thursday, he plans to announce his retirement, a person familiar with the decision told The Associated Press.

The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because Calhoun’s move had not yet been made public.

WVIT-TV in Hartford first reported the expected announcement.

Assistant coach Kevin Ollie was expected to replace Calhoun, the person who spoke to the AP said. The school scheduled a 2 p.m. Eastern news conference “to address the future of the men’s basketball program.”

Ollie will take over a Huskies team that is ineligible for the 2013 NCAA tournament because of its failure to meet national academic standards, one of several off-court problems that hit UConn late in Calhoun’s tenure.

Bulletin photographer Ryan Brennecke battles a rainbow trout near the Colorado Avenue Bridge on the Deschutes River Tuesday.

Just two weeks into the 2012 football season, La Pine has won more games than it did in the past two years combined.

No, these are not the same old Hawks.

“Our No. 1 goal heading into the season was to just have fun,” says La Pine coach Bob Metcalf, whose program snapped a 22-game losing streak in its 2011 season finale, a 32-22 victory over Junction City. “Our seniors did a good job last year (strengthening the program) and the juniors from that season just took the ball and ran with it.”

Inside The Hawks • Capsules look to improve on other to 3-0 on Friday Central night when they Oregon host Redmond’s games, Ridgeview High D4 in a Class 4A nonconference contest. La Pine opened the season with a 47-0 road blowout over 2A Chiloquin, a game in which the Hawks scored six first-half touchdowns. La Pine won away from home again last Friday, rallying in the final minute to top Oakridge, another 2A school, 13-12. Kole Kimmel scored the game-winning touchdown and Jeremy Desrosiers rushed for 140 yards and a score on 24 carries to give the Hawks their first two-game winning streak since September 2009.

According to Metcalf, a big reason for his team’s success this fall can be traced back to the previous winter and spring. Metcalf and La Pine math teacher Heidi Merwin gave up their prep periods the final two semesters of the 2011-12 school year to teach a nutrition and health class for all students. A good chunk of Hawk football players bought into the program, which also included speed and weight training.

“We’ve got talented, hardworking kids down here,” Metcalf says. “They worked all through the winter and spring and just kept it going through the summer.”

In Ridgeview, La Pine will face its strongest opposition in the young season. The Ravens (1-1), who lost to Klamath Union 42-35 last week, have scored 95 points in two games so far in their first season, and as a team Ridgeview has rushed for 616 yards and nine touchdowns.

COMMENTARY

Beavers’ defense back on track

Notre Dame’s move, minus football, to ACC will benefit everyone

The Associated Press CORVALLIS — After struggling all of last season, Oregon State’s defense appears to have righted itself.

The Beavers made a seasonopening statement last weekend with a 10-7 victory over then-No. 13 Wisconsin — holding last year’s Big Ten champions scoreless until the final minutes.

“We played a helluva game, and from the D-line to the linebackers to the secondary everybody was making plays,” cornerback Jordan Poyer said. “That’s the type of defense we want to be this season.”

Oregon State shut down the Badgers’ fearsome running back, Montee Ball, a Heisman Trophy finalist last season, holding him to 61 uneventful yards. Overall, the Beavers held Wisconsin to 35 yards rushing and 207 yards of total offense.

By Chris Dufresne Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — nyone over at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory could tell you this wasn’t rocket science.

Notre Dame’s announced move from the Big East to the Atlantic Coast Conference might have been the biggest news, with the biggest caveat, in press release history.

The Irish are switching conferences in all sports ... with the exception of football.

That’s like announcing the Crickets are leaving for another band ... except for Buddy Holly.

The news Wednesday was sort of presented inside out. It was certainly a big deal for the ACC, which only months ago teetered on the edge of ineptness as it related to conference realignment.

Oregon State’s D.J. Welch (4) and Jordan Poyer (14) defend against Wisconsin’s James White during the second half of Saturday’s 10-7 victory in Corvallis. The OSU defense allowed just 35 yards rushing in the game.

“That defense worked their tails off this fall camp,” Oregon State wide receiver Brandin Cooks said.

“I knew they were going to come in

and do something special. … That defense is running around with fire.”

in Davis Cup, are back in doubles, with John Isner and Sam Querrey playing singles.

S B Hockey • NHL, NHLPA exchange offers: The NHL and the players’ association swapped proposals Wednesday in an effort to head off a lockout scheduled to start this weekend. The NHLPA, led by executive director Donald Fehr, made its presentation in the morning, but that was quickly dismissed by Commissioner Gary Bettman, who said it wasn’t much different than earlier offers. Bettman then met with Boston Bruins owner Jeremy Jacobs, and Murray Edwards of the Calgary Flames, and a new NHL offer was handed back to the players’ association with a shelf life on it. After not meeting face to face since last Friday, the sides gathered Wednesday at the league office before the NHLPA was to hold player meetings later Wednesday at a New York hotel.

The NHL board of governors will convene today with Bettman, while the union holds a second day of discussions with more than 250 players.

Baseball • Reds to host Angels in first interleague opener: One of baseball’s traditional home openers will have an innovative twist next season. The Cincinnati Reds will host the Los Angeles Angels on April 1, becoming the first teams to start their seasons with an interleague matchup. Major League

Baseball’s 2013 preliminary schedule, announced Wednesday, includes several format changes caused by the shift of the Houston Astros to the American League. A National League franchise for its first 51 seasons, the Astros start AL play on April 2 when they host cross-state rival Texas. Because there will be 15 teams in each major league for the first time, interleague play is necessary nearly every day.

Football • Portland State dismisses defensive coordinator: Portland State coach Nigel Burton has dismissed defensive coordinator Eric Jackson effective immediately.

The Vikings opened with a victory over lower-division Carroll College but fell 45-37 at North Dakota last weekend. Jackson joined Burton’s staff when he was named head coach in 2010. Before coming to the Vikings, he was secondary-special teams coordinator at Princeton for nine years. Burton says he will begin the search for a replacement immediately. Portland State travels to Washington to face the Huskies on Saturday.

• WR Chad Johnson charged with domestic battery: Six-time Pro Bowl receiver Chad Johnson has been formally charged with one count of misdemeanor domestic battery. The Broward State Attorney’s Office filed the charge Wednesday. Johnson faces up to

a year in county jail. Johnson was arrested last month after his wife accused him of head-butting her during an argument in front of their home. He was later freed on $2,500 bond.

• Goodell wants bounty meeting with players soon: NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell wants to meet with the players whose bounty suspensions were temporarily lifted “as soon as possible.” Appearing at a hearing on Capitol Hill, Goodell noted Wednesday that the league “offered several times to have them come in as part of the hearing process, the CBA process, and I hope that they’ll do that soon.”

An appeals panel last week overturned the suspensions of Saints linebacker Jonathan Vilma (2012 season) and defensive end Will Smith (four games) for their roles in the team’s bounty program from 2009-11. Browns linebacker Scott Fujita got three games and DE Anthony Hargrove, now a free agent, got eight.

• RG3 first rookie QB to win Week 1 player of week: Robert Griffin III is the first rookie quarterback to win an offensive player of the week award after his debut game. The NFL announced Wednesday that Griffin is the NFC offensive player of the week for his performance in the Washington Redskins’ 40-32 win over the New Orleans Saints. The No. 2 overall draft pick completed 19 of

Tennis • Spain hopes to oust U.S. in Davis Cup: Spain has history on its side in its Davis Cup semifinal against the United States. The United States has won in Spain only once and that was 40 years ago, while Spain’s comfortable wins this year over Kazakhstan and Austria extended its 12-year unbeaten streak at home to 23, all on clay. Spain is the defending champion and also won in 2008 and 2009. Spain will face the United States this weekend on clay in Gijon, the port city on the Atlantic north coast. In the other semifinal, the Czech Republic will play Argentina in Buenos Aires, also on clay. With Rafael Nadal still rehabbing the injured left knee that kept him out of the Olympics and U.S. Open, Spain will be led again

by David Ferrer, who is undefeated in Davis Cup at home and on clay.

Nicolas Almagro is 4-0 in singles cup play this year, and Marcel Granollers and Marc Lopez will be the likely doubles team. The U.S. has surprised this year, with wins in Switzerland and France, both on clay. The Bryan twins, formidable

Boxing • Pacquiao fight with Marquez almost set: Manny Pacquiao will return to the ring Dec. 8, almost surely in a fourth fight against Mexican rival Juan Manuel Marquez. Promoter Bob Arum said final negotiations were scheduled Wednesday with Pacquiao adviser Michael Koncz for the fight, which would be the first for Pacquiao since he lost a hotly disputed decision to Timothy Bradley on June 9.

Cycling • Feds investigate theft of Olympic medalist’s bikes: Federal authorities are investigating the theft of two bicycles belonging to Olympic gold medalist Kristin Armstrong. The bikes were stolen at some point while being shipped to Boise from Germany, where they had been on display at an event. Armstrong’s gold medal time trial bike is worth nearly $30,000 and her road bike is valued at almost that much. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said Wednesday agents in the United States and Germany were investigating the theft. Armstrong says the time trial bike symbolizes of all her hard work and she’s sad that somebody took that away from her family.

MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL

PREP ROUNDUP

Extra berth is putting the ‘wild’ in the wild-card races

By Benjamin Hoffman New York Times News Service

If a team wants to be in playoff contention in mid-September, a viable strategy may be to give up in July.

That is what the Philadelphia Phillies did on July 31 when they traded away Hunter Pence and Shane Victorino in separate deadline deals. Despite that, the Phillies were three games back in the National League wild-card standings after winning Wedensday night.

The Milwaukee Brewers gave up even earlier, letting Prince Fielder leave as a free agent before the season started and trading away the team’s best pitcher, Zack Greinke, on July 27.

They were also three games out after winning on Wednesday.

The thought of the Phillies making the postseason may seem comical, but with a sevengame winning streak the team is clearly entertaining the idea.

“You hear it’s a cliche that this is what you play for, for September, but it’s true,” shortstop Jimmy Rollins told reporters after Tuesday’s win over the Miami Marlins. “We have a lot of flags but we don’t have a wild-card flag, so this would be a good time.”

Forty-five years ago, just two teams qualified for postseason play each year, but through Tuesday, 18 of the 30 teams were within five games of the 10 available postseason positions. If Major League Baseball was hoping to create parity through chaos in the playoff races, adding a second wild-card team in each league this year accomplished that goal.

It is not that the Phillies or the Brewers should start printing playoff tickets; overcoming a three-game deficit in the remaining weeks, especially with so many other teams having to fail, will be difficult. But the fact that two teams that sent up a white flag are hanging around a pennant race is a sign that meaningful baseball will continue to be played late in the regular season under the new playoff format, in which a third of the teams advance.

The list of contenders even includes two teams, the Pittsburgh Pirates and the Baltimore Orioles, that are trying to attain their first winning seasons since the Internet became mainstream. The Orioles are nearly a lock, needing to go just 2-18 in the remaining games for their first winning season since 1997. The slumping Pirates have a tougher road, needing to go 10-10 to end their streak of losing seasons, which dates to 1992.

The only team officially eliminated through Tuesday was the Houston Astros. With the worst record in the major leagues, 45-97, the Astros were 40 1⁄2 games out of first place. In soccer they would be facing relegation to a

lower division, but instead they will be sent to the American League West to balance the leagues at 15 teams each.

Taking a look around the playoff races shows one thing: chaos reigns. Major League Baseball will have to hope that where there is chaos, there is interest.

Division races The three division races in the National League are the only places of tranquillity this season. Barring a collapse that only New York Mets fans would find reasonable, the Washington Nationals, the Cincinnati Reds and the San Francisco Giants will each win their division. Despite that, each team has had some drama.

The Nationals shut down Stephen Strasburg, though the move was not as dire as many presumed, considering he has been the team’s third best starting pitcher behind Jordan Zimmermann and Gio Gonzalez. The Reds also shut down a young phenomenon, closer Aroldis Chapman, hoping it helps him regain some lost velocity. Having traded for Jonathan Broxton and already having Logan Ondrusek, Jose Arredondo and Sean Marshall, the team should be fine without him.

The Giants lost outfielder Melky Cabrera to a 50-game drug suspension, which will keep him out through the first week of the playoffs, but they have rode the hot bat of Buster Posey to a commanding lead over the Los Angeles Dodgers despite the blockbuster deal Los Angeles completed last month to acquire three of the Boston Red Sox’s most expensive players.

The American League is nowhere near as

clear-cut. The Orioles and the New York Yankees remained tied for the lead in the East on Wednesday, three games ahead of the Tampa Bay Rays; the Chicago White Sox were one game ahead of the Detroit Tigers in the Central; and the Texas Rangers were three games ahead of the Oakland Athletics in the West.

Seven teams are vying for three spots, with each team believing it can fall back on winning one of the two wild-card berths.

New York Times News Service

ARCATA, Calif. — The Marching Lumberjacks, surely one of the country’s more irreverent college bands, had launched into “Misirlou.”

One member banged on a trash can lid while another knocked together sticks that could have been plucked from the nearby old-growth forest. All were clad in suspenders and hard hats. The band leader danced maniacally, an oversize ax hoisted above her head.

With each Humboldt State touchdown, six men and women dressed as lumberjacks fired up chain saws near the end zone, bringing cheers from the crowd as the power tools roared to life.

California’s only full-fledged NCAA Division II football team was on its way to an easy seasonopening win against Colorado Mesa on Aug. 30, and the eclectic mix of fans in attendance knew it.

Wins are expected often this season in this isolated corner of California, one reason Humboldt has held on to its pricey football team while other colleges in the state have folded theirs. Humboldt has been California’s only Division II program since the University of California-Davis, moved to Division I in 2003. The last Cal State campus to drop Division II football was Chico, in 1997. In a region known more for marijuana culture and environmental activism than athletics, football has captured the locals’ attention.

“This keeps me sane,” Cedric Aaron, a Humboldt State alumnus and season-ticket holder who works with the mentally ill, said as he watched the game against Colorado Mesa.

Two other Cal State campuses, San Francisco and Sonoma, also dropped football in the mid-1990s after the 23-campus university’s agreement with the National Organization for Women to abide by gender-equity laws. With more than 100 men per football roster, it became too difficult for some universities dependent on state financing to offer enough women’s

COLLEGE FOOTBALL sports to meet the requirements.

Bucking trends Humboldt, however, chose a different path, keeping football and adding women’s soccer and rowing. The rowing team was honored at halftime against Colorado Mesa after winning its first national championship this year.

With the nearest metropolitan area, the San Francisco Bay region, more than five hours away, Humboldt’s leaders have stuck with football, in part, to give residents behind the Redwood Curtain something to cheer. Arcata’s population barely tops 17,000 when school is in session.

“There’s a sense of pride in your team and your small town,” said Pete Ciotti, a season-ticket holder and pizzeria owner who moved to Arcata from Ithaca, N.Y., 15 years ago. An entire row of Humboldt seats includes Big Pete’s Pizzeria plaques.

“Everyone’s just really excited about it,” Ciotti added. “We all sat through terrible seasons, getting rained on. We knew things would get turned around.”

Rain still falls on Redwood Bowl, one reason an old-growth forest abuts the 7,000-capacity stadium, but the Lumberjacks bear little resemblance to the 2008 team, which went 2-9 in Rob Smith’s first season as coach. The squad has improved significantly since then, culminating in last year’s 9-1 record and two home sellouts, which was new ground for Humboldt, whose following over the years has been loyal but small.

Not including scholarships, Humboldt spends slightly more than $650,000 a year on football, about $213,000 more than the university spends on men’s basketball, the second most expensive sport. Football also costs about $380,000 more than Humboldt’s most expensive women’s sport, basketball.

A different model Amid a financial crunch that has devastated the state universi-

Bulletin staff report HOOD RIVER — Ridgeview junior Dakota Steen earned the highest finish for the Ravens at the Hood River Invitational on Wednesday, taking 25th in the girls race after running the 5,000meter course in 22 minutes, 47.98 seconds.

Junior Natalie Ulum’s time of 24:53.43 was good enough for 47th, while sophomore Taylor Bernard’s 24:55.04 gave her the 48th spot.

For the boys, it was junior James Seeley leading the way for Ridgeview, recording a mark of 18:50 to finish 39th. Landon Prescott, also a junior, claimed 46th after finishing in 19:28.

The Ravens get back to work on Sept. 22, when they compete in the Northwest Classic at Lane Community College in Eugene.

In other prep action Wednesday: T h ree Buffs finish under 26 minutes SILVER FALLS — In the Silver Falls Invitational, the White Buffaloes were led by junior J’Von Smith, who finished the 5,200-meter course at Silver Falls State Park in 24:36. Juniors Isaac Fisher and Brandon Hawes came in below the 26-minute mark as well, logging times of 25:33.8 and 25:43, respectively. The White Buffaloes did not have a varsity runner in the girls event. Madras is at the Three Course Challenge in Seaside on Sept. 22.

Wild cards The addition of the second wild card is where things get crazy.

In the National League, the Atlanta Braves were safely in front for the first wild card, 51⁄2 games ahead of their nearest competitor, the St. Louis Cardinals. But the Cardinals had a one-game lead over the newly rich Dodgers, and a 2 1⁄2-game lead over the Pirates. Slumps by those three teams could put the Phillies or the Brewers in the playoffs despite their intentions to play for the future.

The American League, meanwhile, is a free-for-all. The Rangers appear safely on the way to the playoffs, either as a division winner or a wild card, but nothing else is guaranteed. The pool of teams to fill out the other five spots includes the Yankees, the Orioles, the Rays, the White Sox, the Tigers, the Athletics and the Los Angeles Angels.

The Orioles and the Athletics may seem strange fits among that list of high-profile and deep-pocketed teams, but both clubs have shown a flair for late-game wins that at some point has to get in the heads of their opponents.

At Humboldt State, football is worth the price

By Matt Krupnick

Ridgeview runner posts top-25 finish at Hood River Invitational

ty system’s academic and studentsupport programs, Humboldt administrators emphasize that the university spends no state money on athletics. The program, rather, is financed through a student fee and private money.

Humboldt’s president, Rollin Richmond, concerned about athletics’ future, raised the fee in 2010 over students’ objections and faculty concerns. In an advisory vote that year, students overwhelmed by quickly rising tuition opposed Richmond’s increase by a 2-1 margin.

“People here were somewhat divided on it,” said Richmond, a biologist who came to Humboldt a decade ago. “That was a challenge. Students, rightly so, feel like the state has abandoned them.”

The university system has staggered under a series of budget cuts that have more than tripled tuition in the past decade, forcing its 430,000 or so students to shoulder the country’s fastest-rising prices.

But animosity over Humboldt’s higher athletic fees appears to have decreased while the football team’s success has grown. Few Humboldt students seem to know or care that they each pay hundreds of dollars a year to keep the athletic department running.

“I don’t really mind,” DeAndre Crenshaw, 20, said as he sat on a bench on Humboldt’s central quad. Other students pay for his extracurricular activities, he noted.

Creative accounting University leaders say the student fees are crucial to football’s survival. Even with that money, the team can afford the equivalent of only 14 full scholarships, they say, far fewer than the 36 the NCAA allows for Division II universities.

The team is inventive when it comes to making its money go as far as it can. Athletes from other sports clean up Redwood Bowl after games to save money, which is why the university’s cross-country and track coach was carrying a leaf blower around the stadium after the opening game.

Humboldt has sponsored football since the mid-1920s, when it avoided travel costs by playing local high schools. The team still tries to limit travel expenses, sometimes taking 15-hour bus trips to road games rather than flying.

Travel costs are one major reason why Azusa Pacific, a private university of 5,200 students near Los Angeles, has decided to join Humboldt in Division II and the Great Northwest Athletic Conference. In 2007, the university’s football team traveled 18,000 miles, more than any other team in the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics, said Gary Pine, Azusa Pacific’s athletic director.

Building a program Humboldt’s football team came into the 2012 season ranked as high as No. 17 in national polls, and it has moved up to No. 11 after starting 2-0. The Lumberjacks’ resurgence has led to recent, albeit short, NFL stints for former players like Taylor Boggs (New York Jets) and Lyndon Rowells (Carolina Panthers).

The inviting confines of the Redwood Bowl have come as something of a relief to Smith, who in 2005 left a job as Western Washington’s head coach, frustrated by what he saw as a lack of respect for football on campus.

Citing the shortage of Division II teams on the West Coast, Western Washington dropped football in 2009.

“It’s been very difficult for someone like me, who has given his life to this sport,” said Smith, who played in a Rose Bowl with the University of Washington.

“But football is always a target.”

During eight straight losing seasons from 1996 to 2003, the Humboldt football team sometimes had trouble attracting fans.

But at the 2012 season opener, with a victory assured, Stephanie Lane, an assistant athletic director who grew up nearby as a Humboldt fan, proudly looked over bleachers filled with students.

“This is our NFL,” she said. “I don’t miss football games. It’s just in my blood.”

Football Continued from D1 Junior running back Boomer Fleming has been the key back in the Ravens’ run-based offense, totaling 213 yards and three touchdowns on just 26 carries.

In other games Friday involving Central Oregon teams: • Klamath Union (2-0) at Summit (1-1): The Storm face another tough test after last week’s 34-7 loss at Eagle Point. Summit will have to stop the run better after giving up 316 yards on the ground against the Eagles. The Pelicans, who held off Ridgeview 42-35 last week, are looking for their second win against a Class 5A program in three weeks after upsetting Ashland in their season opener.

• West Salem (1-1) at Bend High (0-2): The Titans knocked off Thurston 44-35 last week behind sophomore quarterback Cade Smith, who completed nine of 12 passes for 133 yards and rushed for 133 yards and three touchdowns on 16 carries. Duke DeGaetano ran for 123 yards last week for the Lava Bears.

• Sprague (2-0) at Mountain View (1-1): Senior quarterback Jon Schaub passed for 179 yards and three touchdowns last week as the Olympians rolled past Roseburg 40-20 in Salem. The Cougars look to bounce back from their first defeat since Sept. 16 of last year. Mountain View quarterback Toby Webb has passed for 465 yards and five touchdowns in the Cougars’ first two games.

• Redmond (2-0) at Hood River Valley (2-0): The Panthers, who have given up just 14 points in two games, will try to contain Eagles running back Forrest Broddie, who piled up 134 yards and three touchdowns last week in Hood River Valley’s 3421 win over Forest Grove. Redmond running back Trevor Hindman had a career game of his own last Friday, rushing for 180 yards and four scores in the Panthers’ 41-14 victory at Madras.

• The Dalles Wahtonka (1-1) at Crook County (1-1): The Cowboys gave up 19 first-half points last week in their 31-12 defeat at Cascade. Meanwhile, the Eagle Indians blew out Portland’s Benson High 316 for their first win of the year.

• Sisters (1-1) at Madras (1-1): Both Central Oregon teams are looking to bounce back from losses in Week 2, when Burns rallied past Sisters 36-18 and Redmond rolled over Madras 41-14. Devin Ceciliani posted two touchdowns for the White Buffaloes last week, one on a kickoff return.

• Culver (0-1) at Stanfield (1-0): The Bulldogs struggled mightily in their opener, falling to Grant Union 61-0. The Tigers easily handled Washington foe Dayton, 47-6.

• Prospect (2-0) at Gilchrist (0-1): The Grizzlies face a Prospect squad that has outscored its first two opponents 122-20. Gilchrist lost to Elkton 4212 in its opener.

THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 2012 • THE BULLETIN

Home Continued from D1 The stretch upstream from Bend tends not to hold as many fish as downstream from town, and the river is generally wider there, allowing the fish to disperse more.

“The fishing above town in places can actually be pretty good,” says Dave Merrick, shop manager at Fly & Field Outfitters in Bend. “It’s sometimes overlooked, because we have so many other choices. The reality is, it doesn’t see a whole lot of fishing pressure — lots of runners and hikers, and occasionally you’ll see someone out there fishing.”

We saw one other fisherman across the river, and about 50 joggers and walkers passed behind us along the trail as we fished.

Merrick says that large brown trout linger in that stretch of the Deschutes above town, but we had little luck and decided to head to our next stop: the bridge at Colorado Avenue.

There, the fishing is good yearround — not so much because the fish collect below the spillway that runs under the bridge, but more because of the rocky nature of the river and the whitewater it produces, according to Merrick. That sort of water is a haven for bug life — the kind of bugs that fish like to eat.

“That whole river there has a rocky bottom,” Merrick says. “(The fish) are very close to the dinner table. They can move in and feed. You can wade out from both sides of the river. In winter, the water level comes down and the wading gets easier.”

Rainbow trout and whitefish are the catch at the bridge, and Ryan had fished for about five minutes before he brought a 10-inch rainbow to hand.

Ryan was using a pheasant tail nymph (size 16) to catch his quarry. Fly patterns tend to work uniformly well on any stretch of the Deschutes through Bend. If dry-fly fishing, caddis and mayflies can work this time of year. If nymphing (fishing below the surface), the best patterns include pheasant tails and scuds, as well as mayfly and caddis nymphs.

I was using a copper john at the Colorado bridge, with little

Beavers Continued from D1 Beavers head coach Mike Riley agreed.

“It was just a great performance,” Riley said. “Guys were very sound. I think one of the key elements was that everyone worked hard and was winning off the block. Those are big guys (on the Wisconsin offensive line), but our defensive coaches had a great plan. When we got into situations where we threw in a nickel and dime defense we made some big plays, and that combination is awesome.”

The effort was in marked contrast to those turned in by last year’s overmatched — and often star-crossed — defensive squad.

The 2011 defense was too often slow, tentative and technically sloppy. It ranked 84th in the country overall and yielded nearly 200 yards a game on the

Notre Dame Continued from D1 Only weeks ago, there were rumblings the Big 12 might wrench Florida State and Clemson from the ACC. Why Notre Dame is joining the ACC in all sports except for football is simple: The ACC in a few years will look more like the Big East than the Big East.

The addition of Notre Dame will make six former Big East schools in the ACC. A few years ago, the ACC raided the Big East of Miami, Virginia Tech and Boston College. Pittsburgh and Syracuse are joining the ACC next year.

Notre Dame’s move made perfect, non-football sense. The school needed refuge for all its other sports. The “old” Big East is reconfiguring and is about to look like the Western Athletic Conference, circa 1996.

The Big East is adding schools such as San Diego State, Boise State, Southern Methodist and Houston. That’s not a conference, it’s a geography test.

Notre Dame joining the ACC is a sweetheart deal for both business partners. The Irish stay independent in football but get the security of five ACC games per year.

That leaves seven dates to maintain Notre Dame’s national identity with games against the likes of USC, Stanford and Navy.

Notre Dame gets to keep its television money, but also buys

As we fished near the bridge, walkers through McKay Park watched us and drivers passing over the bridge glanced down to see us casting to the middle of the river.

ground.

The Beavers were especially bad when the chips were down, ranking 10th in the conference on third-down plays and eighth in red-zone defense.

There was also a lot of bad luck. Injuries haunted the defensive unit the entire season. In one game, five key defensive players were lost, and half of Oregon State’s projected starters going into the season missed time

stretch of the river just north of Bend, which fishermen should hit in the next month or so, before irrigation season ends and the fishing is made difficult by rising water levels.

Currently, though, that area is the place to be, as Ryan and I noticed when we arrived at Sawyer Park and encountered more than half a dozen anglers lining the banks in the middle of a weekday afternoon. The river through the park flows in a narrow stream, rocky and picturesque, meandering slowly through and over smooth gray boulders.

at some point. Freshmen Scott Crichton, Dylan Wynn and Ryan Murphy emerged as playmakers, but their inexperience led to mistakes.

Last Saturday against Wisconsin, the Beavers seemed to have total control. Holes closed up as soon as they appeared. The linebackers were active and effective. Linebackers Feti Unga and D.J. Welch combined for 13 tackles, and Welch earned Pac12 defensive player of the week honors.

Oregon State also unveiled some new pressures and different looks. Unga was lined up deeper than last year. Poyer made a huge play by blindsiding Badgers quarterback Danny O’Brien on a corner blitz that caused a fumble. The Beavers sacked O’Brien three times.

Maybe the best sign of all was that the Beavers displayed an outward confidence — jawing,

ACC+Notre Dame = ?

Below are some of the highlights of the deal under which Notre Dame will join the Atlantic Coast Conference; the agreement was announced on Wednesday: • Notre Dame will remain independent in football, meaning it can keep all the money from its contract with NBC. The school has not disclosed how much that is.

• Notre Dame, which has no bowl affiliation the next two seasons if it does not qualify for the BCS, will have access to the ACC’s non-BCS bowls. The bowls cannot select Notre Dame over an ACC team unless the Irish are ranked higher in the BCS standings or are within one victory of that ACC team.

• Notre Dame will play five football games annually against ACC teams, playing each team every three years. It will mean an end to Notre Dame’s annual games with Pittsburgh and Boston College.

• ACC Commissioner John Swofford says the league has no intention of adding a 16th member.

• The ACC increased its exit fees for league schools to three times the annual operation budget, more than $50 million.

• Notre Dame athletic director Jack Swarbrick described the deal as “financially neutral” for the school. Swofford said the deal likely would mean higher revenues for the ACC. • Beside football, Notre Dame hockey will be the only other Irish athletic team not in the ACC. It is joining the Hockey East in two seasons.

some insurance by tying into the ACC’s bowl affiliations. And the ACC adds the name brand of Notre Dame.

This is not dramatic news on the football side. Notre Dame played five ACC opponents in football last year if you count future member Pittsburgh. As for tying into the conference’s postseason structure, bowls affiliated with the ACC will also be able to choose Notre Dame.

And the Fighting Irish will

share bowl revenues just like any other conference member — unless it plays in a BCS bowl other than the Orange; in that case, Notre Dame would keep all the money.

“Speaking strictly from a football standpoint, we have further solidified our future as an independent in college football, maintained our unique ability to schedule nationally and greatly improved our postseason bowl game options,” Notre

“That stretch fishes very well,” Merrick says. “Once you get down to Tumalo State Park, it’s not as good. It’s actually better closer to Sawyer Park. It’s a great park.

You’re right in town, but you don’t see any houses. You kind of forget you’re right in town.

“The only difference there is, at Sawyer, the water will come up starting in mid-October. It can fish well at times after that, you just have to pay attention to the water level.”

We found a spot downstream of the other anglers, and Ryan had soon landed another rainbow trout on his pheasant tail pattern.

I changed my fly from a copper john to a pheasant tail, hoping to find the same luck.

We continued to fish along the Deschutes, focused on nothing but the quiet current of the river and our orange strike indicators drifting atop the gently flowing water — all right in the middle of town.

chest bumping, high-fiving and hugging — that they rarely had a reason to show last year.

It’s been a slow decline since defensive coordinator Mark Banker’s crew led the nation in run defense in 2007. One game does not indicate a complete turnaround, but coaches have said the signs of real improvement have been unmistakable throughout preseason camp, and Poyer, one of four team captains, believes a corner has been turned.

“How good we can be is unlimited,” he said. “It’s just going to be determined on the work that we put in week in and week out and how bad we want it. We’ve just got a taste of it right here with this ‘W.’ We’re going to keep working, keep grinding to be the best defense we could be.”

Oregon State has this weekend off before visiting UCLA in the Beavers’ Pac-12 Conference opener on Sept. 22.

Notre Dame doesn’t have to worry now about losing Big Ten opponents should that conference decide to go to a nine-game league schedule. The Irish, if it chooses, can still play Michigan, Michigan State or Purdue.

What about Notre Dame to the Big Ten? It could have happened ... in 1999. However, the Irish declined that offer, and these days the Big Ten is not interested in Notre Dame as a partial member.

The decision Wednesday quells rumors the Big 12 would inevitably make a football run after Notre Dame. It should cap, for now, some of this expansion madness.

If Notre Dame ever decides to join a conference in football, you can safely say it will be the ACC. Remember, though, in 1995 Notre Dame joined the Big East in all sports except football — and never joined in football.

Notre Dame will remain football independent as long as it can fill its schedule with quality opponents and NBC (or another network) offers exclusive broadcast rights.

To recap: this is not a precursor. The move protects all other Irish sports from the ravages of Big East reconfiguration.

Also, it would be shocking if Notre Dame has to fulfill the Big East’s 27-month exit timetable.

Syracuse and Pittsburgh negotiated earlier departures.

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: Fishing has been slow but anglers are still reporting 18- to 20-inch trout. Fishing should begin to pick up with the cooling weather.

BIG LAVA LAKE: No recent reports but fishing should be good. ODFW has completed trapping operations to remove invasive tui chubs from Lava Lake. The chub removal program is designed to reduce competition with game species and increase the size of trout.

CLEAR LAKE RESERVOIR: Water levels in the reservoir will be dropping as irrigation demand increases. Trout fishing should remain good, as long as the reservoir permits good access.

CRESCENT LAKE: Kokanee fishing has been good.

CROOKED RIVER BELOW BOWMAN DAM: Fishing for trout has been good.

DESCHUTES RIVER (Mouth to the Pelton Regulating Dam): Summer steelhead fishing on the Lower Deschutes is at its best in September.

Good numbers of fish are being found by anglers from the mouth upstream to Sherars Falls. Fall chinook and summer steelhead fishing at Sherars Falls is getting good and should only get better as September progresses. Limits of bright fall chinook have been reported already.

EAST LAKE: Fishing is good, and preliminary analysis of recent sampling suggests that fish size is increasing.

FALL RIVER: Fishing is good.

HOSMER LAKE: Open to fishing and annual population sampling indicates that Atlantic salmon and brook trout populations are healthy.

Fishing on Hosmer is restricted to fly fishing with barbless hooks.

LAKE BILLY CHINOOK: Fishing for smallmouth bass has been good. Fishing for kokanee has picked up as the fish are staging in the Metolius arm prior to entering the Metolius River to spawn.

METOLIUS RIVER: Trout fishing has been good.

Insect hatches should offer lots of opportunities for good dry-fly fishing.

ODELL LAKE: Kokanee fishing good on the lake’s west end.

PAULINA LAKE: Fishing is good.

PRINEVILLE RESERVOIR: Fishing for bass, crappie and bullhead catfish should be good.

Anglers are reporting more bass and larger smallmouth bass than in recent years.

SUTTLE LAKE: Recent fish sampling showed excellent trophy brown trout opportunity.

WICKIUP RESERVOIR: High water will spread out kokanee this fall, but there is opportunity for large kokanee.

HUNTING REPORT

Elk more vocal at night in Ochoco district Here is the weekly hunting report for selected areas in and around Central Oregon, provided by wildlife biologists for the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife: CENTRAL ZONE OPEN: cougar, bear, archery deer/elk, forest grouse, dove, Sept. Canada goose, band-tailed pigeon (open Sept. 15-23) PRINEVILLE/OCHOCO WILDLIFE DISTRICT Fire danger remains a concern and recreational users should check with Ochoco and Prineville BLM offices for the latest access and camping information.

Bear: Successful hunters must check in unfrozen bear skulls at an ODFW office within 10 days of harvest. Please call ahead and make an appointment to ensure a biologist is present for the check in. It’s also a good idea to prop the bear’s mouth open with a stick for easier tissue sampling, teeth collection and tagging. Remember that cubs and sows with cubs are illegal to take, so if in doubt use caution. See regulations for details.

Archery: Buck and elk seasons are open.

The hot and dry conditions have heightened fire concerns, and hunters should consult with the Prineville BLM and/or Ochoco National Forest for the latest fire restrictions. Although days are warm and dry, the nights are beginning to cool off and we have received some reports of bulls becoming more vocal. Hunters are reminded that the Maury is now a controlled entry unit for deer and elk hunters, who must have the controlled entry deer tag in order to hunt in it. Conversely, the Ochoco remains a controlled entry unit for elk, and archery deer hunters must have the controlled entry elk tag in order to hunt in it.

Antlerless elk: Hunts are ongoing in portions of the Maury, Ochoco and Grizzly units. These hunts are primarily on private agricultural and range lands where hunters need permission from the landowner. Typically elk move into these hunt areas in greater numbers during the late summer to take advantage of the irrigated pastures and hay fields.

Cougar: Cougars are present throughout the Maury, Ochoco and Grizzly units but are more likely near deer and elk herds. The Maury and Ochoco units are recommended because of their greater amounts of accessible public land. Remember cougars must be checked in at an ODFW office within 10 days of harvest. Please consult the synopsis for all required parts and be sure to call first to make an appointment.

COMMENTARY

Employing searching patterns on western waters G A RY LEWIS

I

n the Valley of the Moon, green farm fields stretched a quirky patchwork beside a little stream that meandered back and forth to its confluence with a more determined river. We were in Patagonia, but it could have been any western stream in any hemisphere. Alejandro, our guide, led the way and spoke to us over his shoulder. “The wind, on a scale of one to seven, is, I think, a four.� We leaned into it, our faces tight against the raindrops that stung our cheeks. “You will need a 4-weight with maybe a 5-weight line to cast into the wind. But the trout can be big, so use a 3X tippet. On some streams we might use a dropper, but not here, these fish for some reason like to take a dry. “We will walk for forty minutes then get in the water and play leapfrog or baseball, back upstream.� Meaning we would be careful not to work the water already fished by the angler ahead of us. If there were two anglers in the same water, they would alternate runs or trade off after two strikes. “You will start always downstream and cast first to the middle then to the side and the other side. Then take two steps up and cast again. It is a searching pattern.�

To run the searching pattern to its utmost efficiency,

we would place a water bottle on a gravel bar at our starting point. When the angler behind caught up to the water bottle, he would pick it up and walk upstream, allowing the other angler several good runs to fish before he would pick up the bottle and leapfrog ahead.

It is a strategy that works when there is one party on the river and the anglers cooperate to work one section of river.

Whenever an angler finds himself on a new stretch of water with no visible hatch in progress, a searching pattern should be employed. I thought of Alejandro’s instruction when I strung my rod last week on the Los Pinos River near Durango, Colo.

There are three types of searching patterns: the kind you tie on the end of your line, the kind you use to cover water and the kind the guide employs to make sure everyone casts over undisturbed fish.

I poked through my boxes. I could have used a Soft Hackle Hare’s Ear or a Muddler Minnow, but I opted for a black beadhead Woolly Bugger. My friend John Dustin would employ a black Panther Martin, the spinning rod equivalent.

JD pointed me upstream to a rapid that broke over a line of rocks with a few boulders that broke the seam.

I started at the top and cast a short line then lengthened it by 18 inches on each cast until I threw as much line as I could with a simple lift-and-lie-down.

After that, each cast was two steps downstream. It is called

the Wet Fly Swing. Throw quartering down, mend once, let it swing, take two steps down and do it again. When I had covered the run, I started again at the top. On the second pass, I touched three fish but hooked none of them.

Another way to come at the same problem is to fish two beadhead nymphs below an indicator. In intimate water, a Prince or Girdle Bug paired with a Scud or a Spitfire is a good combination. In this case, the angler should start downstream and cast up.

After an hour, we worked our way to a shallow springfed lake. No bugs flitted over the surface, no rises broke the glassy stillness. This called for a searching fly. In deeper water, I might have employed one of Bob Gaviglio’s Rufus patterns, but in this case, I thought an unweighted nymph might be a good choice. Perhaps a simple Brown Hackle was in order, maybe a grizzly-hackled Woolly Worm. Instead, when I opened my box, I spied a No. 14 Peacock Pheasant Tail.

Meanwhile, Sam Pyke tied

on a Prince and worked his way to the other side of the lake. I fan-cast in an arc starting on my left and before long had a hook-up, a rainbow that charged the fly from behind.

For the next hour, I moved up and down the bank and covered the water with long casts and slow retrieves. Best fish of the morning was a 15-inch rainbow that straightened my line and went airborne when the bug stuck like lipstick.

Across the water, Sam used his Prince to turn a couple of fish, including a nice rainbow

FLY-TYING CORNER Now, with fall coming on, summer is on the run and summer-runs are in the river. The sun no longer glares down from overhead, but diffuses the water from an angle. Tie on a fly that dances in the light, that shimmers in purple.

The Summer Run is a good pattern for September and early October when a steelhead will move to take a fly.

Cast down and across then throw an upstream mend. Let the fly swing. Then take two steps down and cast again. At the grab, let the fish turn with it. Now lift the rod.

To tie this pattern, start with purple thread on a No. 5 Alec Jackson or similar hook. For the tag, start with a base of wire overlaid with flat silver tinsel. Tie the tail with purple holographic tinsel then build the body with lavender dubbing at the rear and purple dubbing at the fore.

Rib with silver tinsel. For the wing, use hanked

IN BRIEF McDonald’s will post calories LOS ANGELES — Soon to be listed among the Big Macs and McFlurrys on every McDonald’s menu board and drive-thrus across the country: calorie counts.

As diners increasingly demand more healthful dietary options and nutritional disclosures, the world’s largest hamburger chain says it’s embracing both transparency and better ingredients.

Starting Monday, calorie counts will be posted at its more than 14,000 U.S. locations.

That means customers will know off the bat that four pieces of Chicken McNuggets have 190 calories and that a McCafe Iced Mocha has 260.

On Wednesday, McDonald’s also said it was testing out more betterfor-you options, including seasonal produce such as blueberries and cucumbers, grilled chicken, McWraps starting at 350 calories and a version of the Egg McMuffin made with egg whites and a whole grain muffin.

“We’ve made a lot of good progress toward our nutrition commitments and we recognize there’s still more to do,” said Dr. Cindy Goody, McDonald’s senior director of nutrition, in a statement.

Lancair building up for sale

By Elon Glucklich The Bulletin

Lancair’s facility in Redmond has been put up for sale.

But the kit-airplane company isn’t going anywhere, company officials said.

Lancair plans to stay in the building at 250 S.E. Timber Ave. near the Redmond Airport as a tenant, said Chief Operating Officer Tom Bowen. The company might

even make a push to buy the building, though no proposal has yet been put forward.

Compass Commercial Real Estate Services listed the 38,375-square-foot building for sale last week, at a price of $1.72 million. It joins the former Cessna airplane factory in Bend, which has been on the market for about three years.

Lancair had been leasing its building from Lake Oswego

developer Harold Cox, according to Deschutes County property records. Cox bought the building in 2006, paying $2.6 million, county records show.

But he lost it in foreclosure in June, and Southern California financial services firm Sabal Financial now holds the title.

Two out of town groups have shown interest in the building, said Gardner Williams, a principal broker with Compass Commercial.

But Bowen said that, while Lancair hasn’t formally put a bid on the building, an ownership push isn’t out of the question.

“We’ve talked to (Sabal) ourselves, and are interested in the building,” Bowen said.

“We lease the building from whoever the owner is. We’re a good tenant, and that’s part of what makes this an attractive listing.”

Apple CEO Tim Cook speaks about iPods during the company’s introduction of new products Wednesday in San Francisco. Apple demonstrated its new iPhone 5 at the event.

New iPhone bigger, lighter

By Peter Delevett, Troy Wolverton and Jeremy C. Owens San Jose Mercury News

Apple showed off the newest iterations of its wildly popular smartphone Wednesday morning in San Francisco, confirming that the iPhone 5 will be larger, lighter and faster while connecting to newer cellular networks.

Apple CEO Tim Cook got acolytes and analysts fired up at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, kicking off the unveiling of the first allnew Apple phone since the company’s co-founder and longtime CEO, Steve Jobs, died last year by telling the large crowd, “We’ve got some amazing things to show you.”

Apple marketing guru Phil Schiller followed Cook on stage for the official introduction, calling the iPhone 5 the “most beautiful device we’ve ever made.” He immediately showed that the new iPhone will be taller than previous iterations, allowing Apple to

add a fifth row of icons to the home screen. The phone will be the thinnest and lightest iPhone yet, despite the size change, with Schiller saying the iPhone 5 is 20 percent lighter than the iPhone 4S at 112 grams.

Schiller then expounded on the technical abilities of the iPhone, which will con-

nect with 4G, or LTE, cellular networks as well as HSPA+ and dual-band Wi-Fi. The phone has an A6 chip that will double the speed of the CPU and graphics, which Apple demonstrated by having Rob Murray of gaming company Electronic Arts come out on stage to show off a racing game on the device.

Cook — in his Jobs-like attire of black shirt, jeans and tennis shoes — began his address by noting Apple’s success in the “post-PC era,” telling attendees that Apple has sold more iPads, the company’s tablet offering, than any tech company has sold PCs. The CEO told the excited crowd at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts that Apple had sold 400 million devices running the company’s mobile operating system, iOS, which Cook called “amazing.”

Before the event, 9to5Mac and other blogs were able to find links prepared for news releases on Apple’s website Wednesday morning that announced the phone would be called the iPhone 5 and have LTE connectivity; other links pointed to a new version of iTunes and new iPod Touch and Nano devices.

Apple took down its online store Wednesday morning, which the company commonly does ahead of announcements of new products.

FDIC: 18.7% of Oregon households underbanked Bulletin staff report More than 28 percent of U.S. households either had no checking or savings accounts last year or relied on money orders, checkcashing or similar services, according to a report released Wednesday.

In Oregon, 18.7 percent of households surveyed fell into those categories, conducting some or all of their financial transactions outside the mainstream banking system, according to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp., the government agency that promotes banking and insures deposits.

The report, the “2011 National Survey of Unbanked and Underbanked Households,” estimates how many in the country can be classified as unbanked — those that have no account of any type at a bank or depository institution — and underbanked, those with checking or savings accounts but who still use money orders, check-cashing services, remittances, payday loans or similar services.

The survey showed the percentage of unbanked and underbanked combined in the U.S. increased slightly from the first survey conducted in 2009. Oregon, however, saw a slight decrease in unbanked households, meaning more residents had checking or savings accounts in 2011.

The drop, 1.6 percentage points, was not statistically significant, the report said.

Major action expected at Fed meeting

By Martin Crutsinger The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — If the world’s investors are right, the Federal Reserve is about to take a bold new step to try to invigorate the U.S. economy.

And many expect the Fed to unleash its most potent weapon: a third round of bond purchases meant to ease long-term interest rates and spur borrowing and spending. It’s called “quantitative easing,” or QE. Others foresee a more measured response when the Fed ends a two-day policy meeting Thursday.

They think it will extend its timetable for any rise in record-low short-term rates beyond the current target of late 2014 at the earliest.

Fed officials began their discussions Wednesday and will end with an announcement of any decision around 12:30 p.m. Eastern time. Later, Chairman Ben Bernanke will hold his quarterly news conference.

The stock market edged higher Wednesday, partly in anticipation of Fed action and after the highest court in Germany cleared the way for that country to contribute to Europe’s rescue fund to help indebted governments.

The Fed is facing pressure to act now because the U.S. economy is still growing too slowly to reduce high unemployment.

The unemployment rate has topped 8 percent every month since the Great Recession officially ended more than three years ago.

THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 2012 • THE BULLETIN

Lancair

Apple

The same can’t be said of the former occupant of another Central Oregon airplane factory, Cessna.

Bend city and economic development officials have been trying to find a buyer for the 204,000-square-foot factory on Nelson Road at Bend Municipal Airport since Cessna left in 2009.

Two years earlier, Cessna had paid $26 million to buy the former Columbia Aircraft company out of bankruptcy.

Officials have led potential buyers on tours of the facility several times since it went on the market, said Roger Lee, CEO of Economic Development for Central Oregon.

No one has bitten so far.

Collier’s International, the real estate company listing the Cessna plant, dropped its asking price to $3.9 million earlier this year, broker Jerry Matson said.

The building, still owned

by Cessna but on land owned by the city of Bend, was first put on the market for $7 million. The asking price was reduced to $5.97 million in June 2010, Matson said, before being lowered again this year.

The lower price could generate new buzz for the building, though talks on the building haven’t gone farther than preliminary discussions, he said.

“We continue to get inquiries from a number of different sources,” Matson said.

“People continue to tour it, both locally based and from afar.”

Continued from E1 Like much of Central Oregon’s aviation industry, Lancair’s bottom line has taken a hit since the market crash in 2008.

A huge slowdown in demand for big-ticket items like planes has completely reversed the early 2000s growth in the market.

Deschutes County had a monthly average of nearly 1,200 transportation manufacturing jobs in 2006, according to Oregon Employment Department data.

That figure has dropped 80 percent, to an average of 240 jobs, this year.

Lancair has lowered its workforce from about 70 in 2010 to about 50 today, with across-the-board cuts reducing overhead costs at the company, amid a dropoff in demand for their kit planes.

“We’ve been steadily retrenching since late 2010,” Bowen said. “We’re a market-driven business.... Private aviation is a business that’s primarily driven by high net-worth individuals.

The market for multimillion-dollar airplanes isn’t robust right now because of the economy.”

But the company is still focused on finding buyers for its Evolution Turbine model kit planes, and it’s still one of the biggest players left in Central Oregon’s airplane industry, along with Epic Aircraft, which earlier this year purchased the building it had been leasing at Bend Municipal Airport.

Continued from E1 Since Cook unveiled the third-generation iPad, his first major product release, at the same spot in March, Apple’s star has only continued to expand to supernova status.

A jury last month ruled that Samsung had violated Apple’s patents for the iPhone and iPad, a potentially industrychanging verdict that analysts say could help the Cupertino, Calif., tech giant regain dominance in the smartphone market from Google’s Android operating system.

The iPhone 4S was Cook’s first product launch as Apple’s full-time CEO. The device was greeted with disappointment

Scams Continued from E1 The thieves urged her to send money for “federal taxes” and “customs duties” on the cars.

The FBI says it’s an old story. “From way back, people have been using the Clearing House name, trying to scam people,” said Charles Pavelites, an FBI supervising agent at the Internet Crime Complaint Center. He added: “It’s hard to prosecute the scammers, and even harder if they are overseas and set up accounts to represent that they are in New York.”

Christopher L. Irving, a Clearing House executive, said people should be wary of requests for money using the Clearing House name. “If they are asked to send money, it’s not the real Publishers Clearing House,” he said. He added that the company reported all instances of possible fraud to the FTC’s law enforcement database with the accusers’ permission.

Grace’s caller ID is still showing calls from Jamaica, which is often used by the swindlers; she now refuses to answer the calls. Police officials in Colorado told her she was unlikely to ever reclaim the money. She was advised to place a freeze on requests for her personal and financial information at the three main

Banking

with an insured financial institution,” he said in the release.

The survey did not include the Bend Metropolitan Statistical Area, but it showed about 17 percent of households in the PortlandVancouver, Wash.-Beaverton metro area were either unbanked or underbanked last year. It represented a decrease of about 1 percentage point from the 2009 survey.

Continued from E1 Accounts at federally insured banks allow residents to handle basic financial transactions more easily, build wealth, save for emergencies or long-term security and get access to credit on fair terms, Martin J. Gruenberg, FDIC acting chairman, said in a news release.

“There are many positives to establishing a relationship

by many who expected a fifthgeneration iPhone rather than simply an improved version of the existing product.

Critics at the time also noted Cook’s subdued manner at the launch — a mood that perhaps became more understandable the following day, when Jobs died of pancreatic cancer just six weeks after handing the company’s reins to Cook, formerly his chief operating officer.

Despite the criticism, the iPhone 4S generated blockbuster sales and record preorders, perhaps fueled in part by a worldwide outpouring of emotion in the wake of Jobs’ death.

The iPhone 5, by contrast, will rise or fall solely on its

merits, and ISI analyst Brian Marshall has projected Apple could sell as many as 50 million of them in the December quarter alone if its supply chain can keep up.

Stephen Baker, a telecom industry analyst with NPD Group in New York, offered a minority dissent, warning that a blowout debut isn’t necessarily guaranteed for the iPhone 5. He noted that the U.S. smartphone market “appears to be an increasingly mature one” and that Apple and Android dominate it so completely there are few weaker competitors from whom Apple might steal market share.

Too, Baker pointed out, it’s been less than a year since the

iPhone 4S was launched.

Apple has unveiled a new iPhone once a year, selling a reported 244 million in all — 40 percent of those during this fiscal year alone. Android, which Google released as an open-source platform 10 months after Jobs announced the iPhone, operates some 480 million devices worldwide, according to the Mountain View, Calif., titan’s own estimates.

Entrenched players such as Dell and Hewlett-Packard have been thrown off-balance as consumers, then corporate clients began ditching their desktop and laptop computers for the increased mobility and convenience of smartphones and tablets.

credit rating companies, Experian, TransUnion and Equifax, which she did. She says she believes the thieves originally obtained her profile from one of the companies by pretending they needed it for a business purpose.

Her bank branch recommended that she buy fraud protection services from LifeLock, one of more than 20 competing firms, which typically charge a monthly fee to monitor a customer’s credit ratings, bank accounts and credit cards and to inform the customer of suspicious activity.

There is disagreement among experts about the usefulness of such services.

“I wouldn’t sign up,” said Avivah Litan, who specializes in security and fraud at the Gartner business and technology consulting firm. “I would worry about what they can’t protect against,” she said, for example, thefts from stock brokerage accounts.

Personal credit cards typically protect their customers by absorbing all but $50 of a cardholder’s loss. But if you end up owing bill collectors $20,000 on fraudulent credit card purchases, the monitors usually do not cover your loss, according to Litan. Often, they pay only legal fees, she said.

She added: “But if you are really paranoid, it doesn’t

hurt to purchase an anti-fraud service.”

Michelle Jun, a senior lawyer at Consumers Union in San Francisco, said, “Our advice to consumers is to use the tools that are already accessible and free,” like freezing access without a password to your information at the credit rating companies. “Credit monitoring services usually get to problems when it is too late,” Jun said.

The Consumer Federation of America recently rated 20 identity theft services, using thumbs-up and thumbsdown icons, and also noting instances when it felt a protection service needed improvement.

Dr. Virginia Templeton, a family physician who is executive director of Memory Care, a nonprofit clinic in Asheville, N.C., said retirees were often “independent, high-functioning people” who fell victim before cognitive issues that develop as the brain processes slow down in normal aging became obvious.

Sylvia Easterling said her mother, 82, a retired schoolteacher and “a smart woman,” who has her own

apartment in her daughter’s house, lost several thousand dollars in a fraud scheme and was on the verge of losing much more.

It was the second time around for their family.

The daughter had attended workshops on fraud at the Memory Care clinic when her father was victimized shortly before he died. She became suspicious when she noticed that her mother was getting a high volume of phone calls.

She overheard some of the conversations. In one, a woman was “pretending over the phone,” she said, “saying things I find totally infuriating. I overheard prayers.”

There was also talk of a $25 million prize and sending money for income taxes. The thieves had her mother’s Social Security number.

Once alerted, Easterling was able to intercept a FedEx envelope containing $12,000 in cash her mother was sending to an Illinois address. She said her mother did not want to be named.

“She doesn’t understand how this happened to her,” she said. “She is baffled and

Gas prices go sky high as stations lodge protest

By Katie Zezima The Associated Press

SOUTH PLAINFIELD, N.J. — More than 50 Lukoil gas stations in New Jersey and Pennsylvania jacked up prices to more than $8 a gallon Wednesday to protest what they say are unfair pricing practices by Lukoil North America that leave them at a competitive disadvantage.

Dozens of Lukoil franchise owners also gathered to protest at a station in this central New Jersey town where the posted prices were an eyepopping $8.99 a gallon.

The owners and the New Jersey Gasoline, Convenience, Automotive Association said the protest was aimed at raising consumer awareness about the challenges facing Lukoil dealers and getting the company to respond to dealer grievances.

Station owners said Lukoil charges them more for gasoline than other companies charge their franchisees, forcing them to pass that increase onto consumers. It is not uncommon, they said, to see a competitor selling gas to the public for considerably less than what they’re paying Lukoil per gallon. “My price on invoices is what my competitors are selling on this street,� said Khalid Zackria, owner of the South Plainfield station where the dealers assembled. “That’s why it’s hard for me to survive.�

Sal Risalvato, executive director of the gas station association, said Lukoil charg-

es 7 cents more per gallon than other companies and that owners might pay more on top of that depending on where their station is located.

Lukoil North America issued a statement defending its pricing practices, which it said comply with state law, and accused the gas station association of encouraging “public misstatements and illconceived actions.�

Lukoil is Russia’s secondlargest oil producer. The first Lukoil-branded service stations in the U.S. opened in 2003 and today the company has more than 500 in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic.

Many of the franchisees entered into agreements with other companies that were bought by Lukoil.

The gas station associa-

tion said the high prices were meant to get the attention of customers so they know the price pressures they are facing.

Gas stations taking part in the protest handed out fliers to customers explaining why they are struggling to keep their prices down and put up banners asking customers to contact Lukoil. One car pulled into the Lukoil station around the time of the protest; its driver circled the pumps and left.

Roger Verma, who coowns four Lukoil stations and three Exxon stations, said he pays 18 to 20 cents more per gallon to buy gas from Lukoil than from Exxon. “Me, as a consumer myself, won’t go to Lukoil,� Verma said. “How can I expect my customers to?�

“a grave concern� that inflicts “enormous suffering.�

His remarks sent a clear signal that the Fed will do more. “He had a sense of urgency in that Jackson Hole speech,� said David Jones, chief economist at DMJ Advisors. “I think he is convinced that there is a need to do something.�

Some critics, inside and outside the Fed, remain opposed to further bond buying. They fear that by pumping so much cash into the financial system, the Fed is raising the risk of high inflation in the future.

And many don’t think more bond purchases would help anyway because interest rates are already near record lows.

Some economists who doubt the Fed is about to begin more bond buying say the European Central Bank has eased some pressure on the Fed. Last week, the ECB announced a plan to buy unlimited amounts of government bonds to help lower borrowing costs for countries strug-

gling with debts.

If the ECB’s plan succeeds in bolstering Europe, the U.S. economy could benefit, too.

Europe’s financial crisis and recession have slowed the U.S. economy, in part by reducing European purchases of U.S. goods.

Some also think the Fed might be reluctant to launch a bond-buying program in the final two months of the presidential campaign. Many Republicans have been critical of the Fed’s unconventional methods to boost the economy.

After the financial crisis struck in 2008, the Fed bought more than $2 trillion in Treasury and mortgage-backed securities.

The Fed “is already a campaign issue, and enlarging its balance sheet will make it even more of one,� argues Vincent Reinhart, chief economist at Morgan Stanley and a former top economist at the Fed. Reinhart thinks the Fed will prefer to wait until at least December before announcing more bond buying.

Fed Continued from E1 In August, job growth slowed sharply. The unemployment rate did fall to 8.1 percent from 8.3 percent.

But that was because many Americans stopped looking for work, so they were no longer counted as unemployed.

Chronic high unemployment was a theme Bernanke spotlighted in a speech to an economic conference in Jackson Hole, Wyo., late last month.

Bernanke argued that QE and other unorthodox Fed actions had helped ease borrowing costs and boosted stock prices.

Higher stock prices increase Americans’ wealth and confidence and typically lead individuals and businesses to spend more.

In his speech, Bernanke cited research showing that the two previous rounds of QE had created 2 million jobs and accelerated economic growth. Still, he said persistently weak hiring remains

Shake things up to stay fit • Get progressively in better shape with trainer’s week-by-week plan

By Anne Aurand The Bulletin

Just as philosophers believe there’s a natural order to the universe, fitness trainers believe there’s a natural order to conditioning the body.

The body learns something new and adapts to it, or improves. To continue to see progress, exercisers must ratchet up their effort, or change their exercise.

This can apply to getting stron- FITNESS ger, faster or fitter.

Lane Young, director of strength and conditioning at ModalityX, a gym in Bend, outlined a general, four-week progression that can apply to anyone, no matter their starting point or their goal. (See week-by-week plan, Page F6.) This plan refers to intervalstrength training workouts, but it could translate into other types of conditioning, such as running or swimming.

“When you’re looking to get in shape for a season, (such as ski season,) you need about 90 days to get in shape,” he said.

Those 90 days can be broken down into three, four-week progressive training periods.

“When you’re starting a new program, you need to give muscles time to adapt and learn new movements and demands you’re placing on them,” he said.

• You can avoid additives by limiting the amount of processed food you eat

By Anne Aurand • The Bulletin

By Jane E. Brody New York Times News Service

Six years ago, Todd McGee was a lean, athletic 34-year-old working in construction and living with his wife and toddler daughter on Martha’s Vineyard, where he spent summer weekends surf- MEDICINE ing. A stroke changed his life forever.

Today, with one arm useless and difficulty speaking, McGee, now 40, cannot work. He devotes most of his time to keeping as healthy as possible. Although he is able to drive and care for his daughter, now 7, everything takes longer, and he has trouble concentrating even on routine activities that others take in stride, like grocery shopping.

“I definitely wish I had my old life back, building houses and boats and surfing in my spare time,” he said.

His experience, complicated by a serious delay in diagnosis, is a powerful reminder that strokes can and do happen to young people. The sooner the correct diagnosis is made, the less likely the result will be lifelong impairment.

Although a vast majority of strokes occur in people over age 65 (the risk is 30 to 50 per 1,000 in this age group), 10 percent to 15 percent affect people age 45 and younger (a risk of 1 in 1,000).

A study by doctors at the Wayne State University-Detroit Medical Center Stroke Program found that among 57 young stroke victims, 1 in 7 were given a misdiagnosis of vertigo, migraine, alcohol intoxication, seizure, inner ear disorder or other problems — and sent home without proper treatment.

“Although young stroke victims benefit the most from early treatment, it must be administered within 4½ hours,” said Dr. Seemant Chaturvedi, a neurologist at Wayne State who directs the program and led the study. “After 48 to 72 hours, there are no major interventions available to improve stroke outcome.”

States have power to shape implementation of health care law

By Laura Green Cox Newspapers

WASHINGTON — Though Florida lost its Supreme Court challenge to President Obama’s health care law, state politicians could still have a say in setting minimum health benefits for plans in the state under the federal Affordable Care Act. And that’s what has some health care

advocacy groups worried.

“We have just seen the governor try to thwart the Affordable Care Act at every MONEY step he can,” said Laura Goodhue, executive director at Florida CHAIN, a statewide consumer health care advocacy organization. “We just don’t want the governor to submit

something that is completely opposite of the spirit and intention of the law.”

Florida was the lead state challenging the Affordable Care Act and Gov. Rick Scott, since the ruling, refuses to comply with any part of the law that isn’t required.

With the federal government promising to offer states flexibil-

ity, advocates worry that leaders in Florida will allow their repugnance for the federal law to cheapen the benefits available to its residents.

The Affordable Care Act aims to offer Americans not just affordable coverage, but quality coverage, proponents of the law say.

Teens lose sleep over texting The Dallas Morning News DALLAS — Fifty-six percent of teens, ages 13-18, bring their cellphones into their bedrooms and use them, with texting especially popular in the hour before trying to go to sleep, according to the 2011 Sleep in America Poll from the National Sleep Foundation. The mission of the nonprofit, based in Washington, D.C., is to alert the public, health care providers and policymakers to the importance of adequate sleep.

The study noted a correla-

tion between those who text in the hour before trying to go to sleep at least a few nights a week, with 51 percent less likely to report getting a good night’s sleep, 65 percent more likely to wake up feeling unrefreshed, 17 percent more likely to be categorized as sleepy during the day and 63 percent more likely to drive drowsy.

M China health spending forecast to triple by 2020 Bloomberg News BEIJING — Health care spending in China will almost triple to $1 trillion annually by 2020 driven by an aging population and government efforts to broaden insurance coverage, according to a McKinsey & Co. report released Wednesday.

China will spend more on drugs, medical devices and hospital treatments as it lifts spending to 7 percent of gross domestic product, from 5.5 percent, or $350 billion, in 2010, McKinsey said.

This will make it the biggest

States Continued from F2 To ensure that plans don’t leave out necessary coverage in the name of saving a buck, the Department of Health and Human Services came up with some parameters to set the low bar for plans offered to small employers and individuals buying insurance on their own.

This part of the law does not apply to plans offered by large employers because the vast majority offer comprehensive coverage already.

For the smaller markets, HHS has established certain categories that must be covered, such as maternity and pediatric care.

But the law leaves the decision of setting the minimum bar in the hands of state officials. States have until Oct. 1 to name their Essential Health Benefits or surrender the decision to the federal government.

If that happens in Florida, a plan offered by Florida Blue (formerly Blue Cross Blue Shield) would be the minimum benchmark, per the federal rules.

A group of 15 medical and health advocacy organizations wrote to Scott, the state insurance commissioner and other leaders, asking them to hold public hearings and seek input on what benefits will best serve Floridians.

“This is such an important decision that affects literally millions in Florida,” said Goodhue, whose group was one of the letter’s signers.

The state Office of Insurance Regulation said the decision rests with Scott and the Florida Legislature.

“Gov. Scott has issued statements to the effect that he does not want the state to implement any parts of the Affordable Care Act,” noted Jack McDermott, the insurance regulation office’s director of communications.

The legislature isn’t likely to bite because it won’t begin committee meetings

market globally by 2020 after the United States, which in 2009 spent $2.5 trillion, or 17.6 percent of its GDP, on health care, said the consulting company.

“This will be a key priority for China in the coming years. The government is trying to promote social harmony, and closing the gap on health care is a big part of this,” Franck Le Deu, a Shanghai-based McKinsey partner, said. “This is a market that is still extremely early in the stage of development.”

China’s government raised its own spending on health care to 737.9 billion yuan ($116 billion) in 2011, up from 359.4 billion yuan in 2008, the Ministry of Health said in an Aug. 17 statement. It raised medical insurance coverage to more than 95 percent of the population and added diseases including lung and gastric cancer to an insured list, the ministry said.

Global drugmakers including Pfizer, Novartis and GlaxoSmithKline have hired more sales representatives and expanded product lines

“There’s no trick to making health insurance affordable. I can sell a policy to everybody in the country that only costs $1 a year. It would only include a toothbrush.”

— Karen Pollitz, senior fellow, Kaiser Family Foundation

until December and the session doesn’t start until March — long after the deadline, said Don Gaetz, R-Niceville, the incoming state Senate president.

So far, Scott has made no move on his own to set the benefits. His spokesman, Lane Wright, noted that the governor is committed to complying with any part of the law that is required.

In this case, the governor can choose not to act.

If state leaders do claim a role, they can choose among 10 plans. They include the three most popular sold in their state to small employers. Other options are popular plans sold to federal employees or state employees and the largest nonMedicaid HMO.

Flexibility in the law With just 10 options, it would not seem governors who opposed the law would have much room to let politics color their decision. But in a set of guidelines, HHS indicated that states may have the flexibility to allow for less coverage for one area of care as long as that value is spread to another.

Some worry that flexibility could allow an insurer to cover very little treatment for cancer or transplants in exchange for a lot more of a less expensive service, like breast cancer screenings or colonoscopies, said Karen Pollitz, a senior fellow at the Kaiser Family Foundation, a nonpartisan source for health policy analysis.

“Right now, insurance companies compete and make money, to a large extent, by cherry picking, by how good a

job they do of keeping people who don’t make a lot of claims and getting rid of people who make a lot of claims,” she said.

The law is supposed to stop that, but the promised flexibility has created concerns that, once again, necessary benefits could be lost.

“There’s no trick to making health insurance affordable,” Pollitz said. “I can sell a policy to everybody in the country that only costs $1 a year. It would only include a toothbrush.”

Pollitz notes Florida previously tried to reform health care with a plan that offered minimal coverage.

Cover Florida, signed into law in 2008, collapsed in less than two years. Insurers could place limits on coverage and refuse to insure preexisting conditions. The plan’s offerings were also shabby. Under the Affordable Care Act, insurers can’t refuse people with preexisting conditions.

“It took the term ‘bare bones’ to a whole new level,” Pollitz said.

Even under the Affordable Care Act, Florida has sought to shape coverage in a way that concerns some health advocates.

For example, the state twice sought a waiver from a rule designed to prevent health insurance profits from going to bonuses and other costs that don’t improve care. The state insurance commissioner asked to avoid a rule that says 80 cents of every dollar consumers spend for their premiums must be spent on health care or improving quality. The federal govern-

HIGH LAKES WELCOMES

in China, in search of growth to offset losses of patent protection on best-selling drugs elsewhere. Those ambitions are being curbed by Chinese government policies aimed at reducing medical costs.

“Back in the early 2000s, it was pretty easy for multinationals to grow 25 to 35 percent a year in China,” said Le Deu, who heads McKinsey’s Greater China Healthcare practice. “To some extent those easy days are over. The going is getting tougher in terms of complexity and requirements for success.”

ment denied the request.

Essential Health Benefits Still, the law leaves a lot of power in the hands of state leaders who choose to pick up the reins.

“There is a significant opportunity for states to say this is what Essential Health Benefits will mean here,” Pollitz said. “I don’t think anyone envisioned the election of 2010 and so many states taking this very firm stance that (the Affordable Care Act) is political poison and we don’t want anything to do with it.”

What are Essential Health Benefits?

It is the minimum coverage insurers must offer in health plans for small employers and for individuals buying insurance on their own. Large employer plans are not included because they typically offer comprehensive benefits already.

The Essential Health Benefits will also govern plans on the state exchange. The exchange is meant to be a onestop shop where people who need insurance can find all of their options and through which low-income residents can get government subsidies to buy insurance. Currently Gov. Rick Scott has not moved to open an exchange in Florida.

If he does not, residents will be able to buy from a federal exchange.

The federal government has laid out a number of guidelines governing services that must be covered in Essential Health Benefits, such as maternity and pediatric care. But states will have some say in choosing the number of visits that will be covered and determining what services, precisely, are covered in each category. If state leaders choose not to set their own minimum benefits, the federal government chose a default plan offered in their state.

N Obesity could lead to diminished cognitive skills, study suggests To protect your mind, you might think about taking care of your body.

A new study published in Neurology, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology, suggested that obese people who have other metabolic abnormalities may lose their cognitive skills faster than their healthier counterparts.

Metabolic abnormalities are defined as two or more of the following risk factors: having high blood pressure, having low HDL or “good” cholesterol, taking diabetes medication, taking

Additives Continued from F1 Others, such as emulsifiers, stabilizers and thickeners, create texture and consistency that consumers expect, according to the Food and Drug Administration, the agency responsible for determining the safe use of additives.

Gonsalves said some additives sound worse than they actually are. The old adage in nutrition is: If you can’t pronounce it, you probably shouldn’t eat it. But, she said, “words like tocopherol, cholecalciferol, pyridoxine, ascorbic acid are difficult to pronounce and might seem to be toxic.” In reality, those words identify: vitamin E, vitamin D, B6 and vitamin C, and can be added to foods to enhance nutritional value. Such foods are described as fortified.

The FDA has a list of more than 3,000 ingredients in its database describing everything that gets added to foods, including everyday staples such as baking soda, yeast or spices.

Since 1958, manufacturers have done their own testing of food additives, which Gonsalves acknowledged “sounds like the fox guarding the hen house.” But the testing is regulated by the FDA and must be approved by the FDA. The FDA maintains a list of additives used prior to 1958, which is referred to as the GRAS “generally recognized as safe” list. The FDA continually updates the list as it tests those additives, removing those that are unsafe.

For example, a previously listed GRAS item was a specific red dye, known as red dye No. 3, Gonsalves said.

That’s the one that made maraschino cherries so red.

But the dye was eventually associated in some studies with cancer. (M&Ms had a different red dye in them, but for a few years they weren’t produced because people were afraid of red dye, Gonsalves said.)

“Because scientific research isn’t perfect, the FDA can never be absolutely certain that there is no health risk with any additive, but testing is rigorous and ongoing,” Gonsalves said.

Additives to avoid • Antibiotics, indirectly consumed Antibiotics are used by farmers to help cattle gain weight. Research isn’t completely clear about whether human consumption of antibiotics as an indirect additive to meat contributes to producing antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria, Gonsalves said.

Research has shown that antibiotic-fed animals gain weight faster than those not fed antibiotics. The mechanism isn’t clear, but a change in gut flora is likely involved, which Gonsalves said is particularly interesting since the use of antibiotics in feed correlates with a change in human weight over time.

A recent study published in Nature, a scientific journal, observed that mice receiving antibiotics developed more fat mass, had increased bone density and altered hormones related to metabolism. Researchers said the antibiotics affected the function of bacteria in the gut and that altered how certain nutrients were metabolized.

The FDA recommends eliminating the use of antibiotics to promote growth in animals. In the meantime, this is an additive Gonsalves said she would put on the top of the list of additives to avoid.

cholesterol-lowering medication and having high triglycerides, a type of fat found in the blood.

The study RESEARCH involved 6,401 people with an average age of 50 at the start of the study.

Body mass index (BMI) and metabolic risk factors were determined at the beginning of the study. Over 10 years, participants took memory and cognitive skills tests three times.

Researchers found: 31 percent of the participants had two or more metabolic

“Every food we eat, whether a just-picked strawberry or a homemade cookie, is made up of chemical compounds that determine flavor, color, texture and nutrient value. All food additives are carefully regulated by federal authorities and various international organizations to ensure that foods are safe to eat and are accurately labeled.”

Additives to limit • Sodium nitrite This is put into meats including ham, hot dogs and bacon to cure and preserve the meat and give it certain characteristics, such as a pink color, or a specific flavor, Gonsalves said. Originally, it was added to meats to protect against botulism. Nitrite and nitrate are found naturally in many vegetables, including spinach, cauliflower, and some fresh meat.

During the curing process, nitrites may combine with amino acids found in the meat, leading to the formation of nitrosamines, Gonsalves said. Nitrites themselves do not cause cancer, or else they couldn’t be added to foods, but nitrosamines are carcinogenic. Adding vitamin C prior to the curing process inhibits the formation of nitrosamines.

So read labels and look for ascorbic acid in cured meats, she said.

• Food dyes In the 1970s, Dr. Benjamin Feingold speculated that food dyes caused hyperactivity in children. For decades, his research was not supported by other scientists. But in the past decade, some research has shown a slight increase in hyperactivity in a small proportion of sensitive children who consume food dyes.

Gonsalves said reducing the amount of processed foods eaten is a good idea for everyone. “Whether or not this goround of research on food dyes proves to be true, eating more whole foods without food dyes is worth doing,” she said.

Many foods have dyes listed on their ingredients labels, including Kraft macaroni and cheese, some yogurts or candies such as sprinkles or Starburst.

Some people have allergic reactions after consuming certain food colorings, namely yellow No. 5 or No. 6, red No. 40, carmine, and cochineal extract.

• MSG, or monosodium glutamate Some individuals are sensitive to MSG, experiencing allergylike symptoms including headaches, nausea, shortness of breath and more. The additive is considered safe, and is not considered an allergen.

Glutamate is an amino acid, found in virtually all protein foods. Monosodium glutamate is glutamate, plus sodium and water. It adds a flavor known as “umami,” or savoriness. It’s found in soups, such as some canned soups, and stews and cold cuts. MSG is not particularly high in sodium, and in fact, may add flavor to a food, allowing for a smaller amount of salt, Gonsalves said.

The average American consumes about 11 grams of glutamate per day from natural

abnormalities; 9 percent were obese and 38 percent were overweight. Of the 582 obese people, 60 percent met the

protein sources and less than 1 gram of glutamate per day from MSG. When MSG enters the body, it is treated the same as glutamate from other sources, such as proteins, Gonsalves said. In well-controlled studies, it was found that very few people could distinguish between a placebo and MSG supplements in terms of bad reactions. But some people are sensitive to it and should avoid it if they experience the above listed reactions, she said.

Other additives of note • Saccharin, aspartame and acesulfame-K The Center for Science in the Public Interest, a Washington, D.C.-based consumer interest advocacy group that focuses on nutrition, includes artificial sweeteners saccharin, aspartame and acesulfame-K on its list of additives to avoid.

These additives would be found in diet foods and drinks, gelatin desserts, lowcalorie desserts and more. The center’s website cites studies conducted on rodents that suggested that the sweeteners may increase the risk of various cancers. (See: www .cspinet.org/reports/chem cuisine.htm.)

However, the FDA states that there is “no convincing evidence of a cause-and-effect relationship between these sweeteners and negative health effects in humans. The FDA has monitored consumer complaints of possible adverse reactions for more than 15 years.”

• Olestra The Center for Science in the Public Interest, along with an April article from Consumer Reports, also included olestra on their “additives to avoid” lists.

Olestra is a synthetic fat that is not absorbed in the digestive system so therefore has no calories. It can be found in Lay’s light chips and Pringles light chips, according to the center. It reduces the body’s ability to absorb fat-soluble carotenoids such as alpha and beta-carotene, lycopene, lutein and canthaxanthin from fruits and vegetables. An occasional serving wouldn’t be a problem, according to the center. But it’s important that those nutrients be absorbed, since they are believed to reduce the risk of cancer and heart disease.

The FDA’s website about food ingredients aims to reconcile the concerns of consumers about food additives. The FDA website says: “Every food we eat, whether a just-picked strawberry or a homemade cookie, is made up of chemical compounds that determine flavor, color, texture and nutrient value. All food additives are carefully regulated by federal authorities and various international organizations to ensure that foods are safe to eat and are accurately labeled.”

With indirect food additives, such as those that leach into foods from packaging, the packaging manufacturers must prove to the FDA that the materials are safe before the FDA approves their use, according to the FDA. “Food and color additives are strictly studied, regulated and monitored. Federal regulations require evidence that each substance is safe at its intended level of use before it may be added to foods. Furthermore, all additives are subject to ongoing safety review as scientific understanding and methods of testing continue to improve,” according to the FDA. “Consumers should feel safe about the foods they eat.”

criteria for metabolic abnormality.

Over 10 years, people who were both obese and metabolically abnormal experienced a 22.5 percent faster decline on their cognitive test scores than those who were of normal weight without metabolic abnormalities. Metabolically normal but obese individuals experienced similar amounts of rapid cognitive decline. In the metabolically abnormal group, the decline on scores were faster among obese than among normal weight people.

Study author Archana Singh-Ma-

noux said in a written statement that the study provided evidence against the concept of “metabolically healthy obesity.” The study suggests that obese people without metabolic risk factors still have negative cardiac and cognitive results.

More research is needed to look at potential impacts from genetic factors, to account for differing durations of time that people have been obese or had metabolic risk factors, authors said.

Organic junk food? Say it isn’t so

By Barbara Quinn The Monterey County Herald

Organic jelly beans. Organic potato chips. Organic vodka. “Organic” is a term perceived as healthier than conventional products … no matter what they are, according to a recent article by registered dietitian Sharon Palmer in the “Environmental Nutrition” newsletter.

So what does the term “organic” mean anyway?

According to the United States Department of Agriculture — which regulates organic standards — “organic food is produced without using most conventional pesticides, fertilizers with synthetic ingredients, bioengineering, or ionizing radiation.” In other words, “organic” refers to how a food is farmed.

Organic does not necessarily mean a food can’t be highly processed, however. (“Processed” means it has been changed in some way from its natural form.)

Take a chocolate chip cookie, for example. OK, take two. “Organic” chocolate chip cookies are made with organically cultivated wheat, sugar, butter and chocolate. The “organic” flour and sugar can still be refined and white, however.

And the nutritional value of these cookies may be no different from regular cookies. Sorry to blow a fantasy, but excess fat and calories from organic treats are no less damaging than those from other foods.

So while organic farming methods help ensure healthy soil and ecosystems, organic standards do not regulate a food product’s nutritional attributes, says Palmer.

Take a product made with organic brown rice syrup or

evaporated cane juice. It’s still sugar. And organic sweetened beverages, candy bars, and chips? If they are stripped of healthful nutrients, they’re just “organic junk food.”

What about organic milk?

It comes from cows that were fed organic feed and were not given hormones or certain types of medications for illness. Both organic and regular milk contain the same profile of essential nutrients, say nutrition experts. And both types of milk are enriched with vitamin D — a hormone-like vitamin that helps the body absorb calcium.

One interesting note: Some organic milk may last longer than regular milk because of how it is processed, according

to Craig Baumrucker, professor of animal nutrition and physiology at Pennsylvania State University. Because organic milk is not produced in all parts of the country, it may have to travel farther to reach stores. To help it stay fresh longer, it may be treated with UHT (Ultra High Temperature) which destroys all its bacteria content. It may be this UHT process that gives organic milk its slightly sweeter taste, says Baumrucker.

Bottom line? Organic or not, health experts still call us to choose from whole grains, fresh fruit, vegetables, beans and legumes, low-fat dairy foods and lean meats, poultry and fish. And an occasional cookie.

M Mixing medications? Communication is key Autistic workers

By Nancy Churnin

Bengt Bostrom, 71, organizes his medications at his home in Coppell, Texas.

Bostrom ended up with a bleeding ulcer after he started taking naproxen for his prostate cancer.

The Dallas Morning News

DALLAS — A failure of communication proved to be life-threatening for Bengt Bostrom.

Bostrom, 71, of Coppell, Texas, went to his internist, Dr. Bradley Jones, to figure out why he was so exhausted.

Bostrom was already being treated for prostate cancer, and a specialist had prescribed naproxen to help reduce swelling.

If Jones had known that, he’d have added a medicine to protect Bostrom’s stomach.

Instead, Jones didn’t find out until he noted how unnaturally pale Bostrom was, ran tests and sent him to the hospital, where he required four units of blood to stabilize a bleeding ulcer.

“I didn’t suspect the medication,” Bostrom says, noting that the naproxen, which Jones identified as the culprit, was an over-the-counter pill he’d only taken for four or five days.

Jones, an internist on staff at Baylor Medical Center at Irving, Texas, says the incident points out the importance of having one doctor monitor all of a patient’s medications — prescription, over-the-counter and herbal.

“The internist is the quarterback of a patient’s care,” Jones says. “The internist needs to make the referrals, and if you self-refer, the specialist should send a report back so the internist can say this medicine is fine or there’s a reason why we can’t do this medicine.”

Armon Neel Jr., a fifth-generation pharmacist and author of “Are Your Prescriptions Killing You?” (Atria Books, $25), might add that a boardcertified pharmacist, working with that doctor, can play a key role as well.

A common problem About 46 million people in the United States have multiple chronic health conditions that require multiple medications and rely on multiple health care providers for their care, according to the Alliance for Integrated Medication Management, an organization created in June with the goal of integrating pharmacists into primary care services with the

Stroke Continued from F1 “Symptoms that appear suddenly, even if they seem trivial, warrant a meticulous workup,” he added.

Follow-up analyses of the Detroit study showed that patients seen by a neurologist in the emergency room, as well as those who were given an MRI as part of the initial workup, were less likely to receive a misdiagnosis.

“Patients, too, should be aware of the risk of stroke regardless of their age,” Chaturvedi said in an interview.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have reported a steep increase in strokes among people in their 30s and 40s. A rise in risk factors — obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure and sleep apnea — and improved diagnosis account for this upturn.

But younger patients are no better today at recognizing the symptoms of stroke.

“Only 20 to 30 percent of patients get to the emergency room within three hours of symptom onset,” Chaturvedi said. “They tend to wait to see if the symptoms will go away spontaneously, and they show up in the ER 12 to 24 hours later.”

A cautionary tale After an intense workout in the surf the day before, McGee awoke one morning with a headache and feeling out of sorts. He went to work but came home nauseated and chilled. He assumed he’d come down with the flu his family had just had.

Then in the middle of the night, a headache he described as “the worst pain of my life” prompted a trip to the emergency room. The attending doctor thought McGee had

Tips for monitoring prescriptions • Compile a personal medication dossier, keep it up to date, and show it to all doctors and health care professionals you see on every visit.

• If you don’t know why you’re taking medications on the list or are not sure how to take them, ask.

• If you’re taking more than one medication for the same condition, ask why.

• If you are taking medications prescribed by doctors you don’t see on a regular basis, ask your primary care physician whether you still need to take them.

help of the Health Resources and Services Administration of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services.

Medication-related problems are common, costly and hurt people, according to a 2012 report from the American Geriatrics Society. Problems can occur when medications are taken incorrectly or conflict with one another or with certain foods and alcohol.

Fatal prescription interactions can occur at any age, as witnessed by the case of actor Heath Ledger, who died

a muscle tension headache, treated him with intravenous pain medication, handed him some pain pills and sent him home.

Embarrassed that he’d gone to the hospital “for just a headache,” McGee took the pills when the pain returned the next afternoon.

Soon after, he suffered what he thought were side effects from the medicine. Now he knows what it really was: a transient ischemic attack, a mini-stroke, that left him briefly unable to speak and numb on one side.

That night, he fell out of bed trying to get to the bathroom and lost bladder control en route. One arm, he found, had begun flapping uncontrollably.

He returned to the ER, where two doctors ordered a CT scan that suggested either a severe migraine or a stroke. At the time the hospital had no MRI equipment, which could have revealed the real problem: a stroke resulting from a tear in the carotid artery, which feeds the brain.

By the time an ambulance and ferry got McGee to Boston, where the diagnosis of stroke was confirmed, it was much too late for the clot-busting drug tPA to ameliorate the stroke’s effects; the drug must be given intravenously within three or four hours. (Although some doctors are concerned that tPA can cause fatal bleeding in a person with a torn carotid, Chaturvedi said the drug is “safe and effective” in such patients.)

Repeated blows from surfing, possibly combined with an inherent arterial weakness, are believed to be responsible for McGee’s stroke. Other activities that can cause a carotid tear are those that involve sudden neck jerks, including scuba diving, golf and tennis, as well as chiropractic manip-

in 2008 from an accidental overdose of six prescription drugs, including painkillers, sleeping pills and anti-anxiety medication.

However, Dr. Paul Carns, an anesthesiologist and assistant professor of anesthesiology at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., says that the most vulnerable are the elderly, who use an average of 16 medications apiece, often prescribed by different specialists and acquired at different pharmacies as patients shop for the best prices.

“As we get older, we have more chronic conditions that require multiple medications that are more powerful than ever before,” he says. “Many work specifically on certain places in our body, and many times there’s an interaction.”

A long list of dangers The problem extends to over-the-counter medications taken in excess, from fever reducers such as Tylenol, which can damage the liver, and antiinflammatory medications such as Advil, which can affect the kidneys, he says.

Additional interactions to watch for: certain beta blockers can have an adverse effect on blood sugar; anti-inflammatory medicines can raise blood pressure; some antibiotics and high doses of grapefruit can inhibit the metabolism or breakdown of statins in cholesterol medications; coumadin, a blood thinner, can be blocked by too much vitamin K, which comes from eating green vegetables.

ulation and bending the head sharply back (the so-called beauty parlor stroke).

But most strokes that affect young adults result from clots precipitated by the usual cardiac risk factors: obesity, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and smoking. Abuse of alcohol and drugs are also contributing factors; among women, use of birth control pills can raise the risk of stroke. People prone to migraines also have a somewhat higher risk of stroke.

When to act fast The distinguishing characteristic of stroke symptoms is their sudden onset. Thus, Chaturvedi said, no matter what a person’s age, the sudden appearance of any of the following symptoms should prompt a trip to the hospital as quickly as possible.

• Numbness or weakness of the face, arm or leg, especially on one side of the body.

• Confusion, trouble speaking or understanding speech.

• Trouble seeing in one or both eyes.

• Difficulty walking, dizziness or loss of balance or coordination.

• Sudden, severe headache with no known cause.

Unlike a heart attack, most strokes are painless. Even if the initial symptoms dissipate, they must be taken seriously.

“A CT scan doesn’t show strokes very well in the first 24 hours,” Chaturvedi said.

He recommended that if the diagnosis is uncertain, an MRI should be done and a neurologist consulted in the emergency room.

“Patients may have to be proactive and insist on a thorough workup and ask to be seen by a neurologist, and ER doctors should consider the possibility of stroke regardless of a patient’s age,” he said.

Neel offers a long list of potentially adverse reactions in his book, pointing out how patients taking blood pressure drugs should be monitored for muscle pain, migraines, blackouts, diabetes and kidney failure.

So how should patients manage?

Carns advises patients and caregivers to keep a medication list on them at all times, know what their medications are used for, and be sure to include over-the-counter medicines, herbal supplements and vitamins on the list for a doctor to see. While he goes over all medications with his patients, he will also order a pharmacy consultation for patients who need additional help.

As for Bostrom, he keeps a list of all his medications in his wallet, takes only the ones that have been cleared by Jones, and reports back when he feels they need to tinker with the balance.

Communication, they agree, is key to getting it right.

“I had one medication that gave me a cough and he switched me to something that doesn’t. We’re doing good together.”

get helping hand from iPod Touches

By Monte Morin Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — “Jeffrey” was barely two weeks into his first job, and already he was about to lose it.

The autistic 21-year-old was good at wiping down tables and cleaning bathrooms at a Virginia fastfood restaurant, but his boss grew alarmed whenever Jeffrey would spin around in the dining room, humming to himself and staring at the ceiling.

But the shy, $8-an-hour custodian managed to keep his job after he was equipped with a specially programmed iPod that used videos, clock alarms and written messages to remind him of work tasks. With his workday clearly delineated, Jeffrey no longer felt so nervous that he had to calm himself down by spinning and humming.

In a case study published this week in the Journal of Vocational Rehabilitation, researchers said the use of an Apple iPod Touch greatly improved the workplace performance of employees diagnosed with autistic spectrum disorder, or ASD, and greatly reduce episodes of disruptive behavior. The program uses a suite of applications that includes lists, scheduled reminders, video prompts, navigation instructions and calming movies or music.

Whereas the program reminded Jeffrey to move on to other cleanup tasks instead of wiping down the same table endlessly, it helped 60year-old “Grace” cope with the stress of catching the

bus to and from work. It also helped 20-year-old “Lily” negotiate her job as a hospital custodian even though she could not read or write. (The names of the study participants are pseudonyms. Their true identities were withheld by the study authors to protect their privacy.)

Today, only 15 percent of U.S. adults diagnosed with autism hold paying jobs, according to study author Tony Gentry, an occupational therapy professor at Virginia Commonwealth University.

Difficulties involving cognition, behavior and poor communication make it hard for people with autism to be employed. However, occupational therapists say the autistic have valuable workplace skills, and efforts to keep them in jobs help businesses as well as the workers.

Some autistic adults excel at math and computer skills, while others have photographic memory. Others exhibit high levels of honesty, reliability and perseverance, and their limited interest in personal relationships makes them less likely to engage in workplace socializing, according to study authors.

The case study was part of a four-year trial that involved dozens of subjects and was funded by the National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research. The iPod Touch was chosen because at the time the study was designed, it was the only pocket-sized personal digital assistant, or PDA, available.

DEFIBRILLATOR EXTRACTIONS

Iron overload can bring a host of ills • Deficiency, once a common worry, is now less likely than excess levels

By Jane E. Brody New York Times News Service

Jerry Holt / Minneapolis Star Tribune

Dr. Pierce Vatterott, left, watches a monitor during the removal of four defibrillator leads from a patient at United Hospital in St. Paul, Minn. GlideLight, a tool recently approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, helps make the lead extractions easier.

New device makes a difficult surgery more manageable

By James Walsh Star Tribune (Minneapolis)

MINNEAPOLIS — Dr. Pierce Vatterott and his team of nurses and technicians worked smoothly and efficiently in the chilly catheter lab at St. Paul’s United Hospital. It was complex and potentially risky work, removing four leads — wires that connect a defibrillator to the heart — from an 84-year-old man.

But Vatterott and his team are experienced hands and they had a new tool, to boot, a laser sheath that more quickly and easily cuts through scar tissue to free the wires.

Millions of people need defibrillators and pacemakers to keep them alive. The wires that lead to those devices sometimes need to be replaced because of age or defect. But one wrong move when extracting a lead can leave a piece of the wire behind or, worse, perforate the heart or blood vessel.

So anything that makes lead extraction safer is a good thing, Vatterott said.

“It has helped,” he said of the GlideLight, made by Colorado Springs, Colo.-based Spectranetics and recently approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. “It has definitely helped.”

Potentially dangerous problems in the past five years with leads made by Medtronic Inc. and, most recently, St. Jude Medical Inc., have left tens of thousands of people facing difficult choices. Do they thread new leads through the same vein to the heart, but leave the old ones — disconnected — in place? Or do they pull them out entirely?

Sometimes, the congestion of too many wires in the vein can block blood flow. One lead rubbing against another also can cause inappropriate shocking. If a lead becomes infected, it has to come out.

“The extraction of leads that have been implanted in patients for years is one of the most complex procedures cardiologists perform,” said Dr. Robert Hauser, a senior consulting cardiologist at the Minneapolis Heart Institute at Abbott Northwestern Hospital. “It should be done only by highly experienced physicians and their teams in hospitals equipped for emergency surgery.”

Vatterott and his team at United Heart and Vascular Clinic at United Hospital fit the bill. They have done about 2,000 lead extractions over the years and were the first to use the new GlideLight device in Minnesota. The doctor said they are doing one to two lead extractions each week. GlideLight is also being used at Abbott Northwestern.

Kurt Riebe, 84, and his wife, Lorraine, will celebrate 63 years of marriage in August.

Lorraine calls it “a nice start.”

The North St. Paul, Minn., couple has every intention of celebrating many anniversaries to come. So when they learned that Riebe had an infection around his defibrillatorpacemaker, the decision was made to take out the device and the four leads that had been implanted and replace them.

It would not be easy, Vatterott said. Riebe is frail.

But the GlideLight made it easier.

Not that a five-hour procedure, with Vatterott and his nurses monitoring blood pressure, watching multiple monitors, cutting out infected tissue, cauterizing blood vessels and snaking wires and something that looks like a laser-tipped black soda straw into the heart can be called easy.

It took two hours just to do the prep work to get the leads ready for removal. As he worked, Vatterott praised his team time and again, pointing out that each has 15 to 20 years of experience. First, they worked to clear the “pocket” where the defibrillator was located. Then they disconnected the wires from the device, temporarily hooking up Riebe to an external pacemaker.

Then, the doctor slid the GlideLight over the first lead, snaking it down the vein into Riebe’s heart. Along the way, the device made a clicking sound as the laser cut through the scar tissue that blocked its path. Once clear, the doctor slowly pulled out the lead before removing the sheath.

Then, it was on to the second lead. Then the third. Then the fourth. During the entire procedure, a surgical team was standing by to assist if a complication arose. One never did.

By the end of the week, Riebe was home and doing well.

Iron, an essential nutrient, has long been the nation’s most common nutritional deficiency. In decades past, many parents worried that children who were picky eaters would develop iron-deficiency anemia. My mother boiled meat I refused to eat and fed me the concentrated broth in hopes I’d get some of its iron.

Now baby foods, infant formula and many other child-friendly foods, like breakfast cereals, breads, rice and pasta, are fortified with iron.

Today iron deficiency is more likely in infants who are exclusively breast-fed, young children who consume too much milk, menstruating and pregnant women, vegans and strict vegetarians and people who take medications that cause internal bleeding or interfere with iron absorption.

These days, more attention is being paid to the opposite problem: iron overload, which studies indicate can damage organs and may increase the risk of diabetes, heart attack and cancer, particularly in older people.

In examining more than 1,000 white Americans ages 67 to 96 participating in the Framingham Heart Study, researchers found that only about 3 percent had deficient levels of iron in their blood or stored in their bodies, but 13 percent had levels considered too high.

The authors concluded that “the likely liability in iron nutriture in free-living, elderly white Americans eating a Western diet is high iron stores, not iron deficiency.”

Iron is an essential part of the proteins that transport oxygen in the body.

Hemoglobin, the oxygencarrying protein in red blood cells, accounts for about two-thirds of the body’s iron supply. Smaller amounts are found in myoglobin, the protein that supplies oxygen to muscles, and in enzymes needed for various biochemical reactions.

In addition, a varying amount of iron is stored in proteins that release it to the blood when needed.

The more iron that is absorbed from the diet, the higher the level of stored iron.

About one person in 250 inherits a genetic disorder called hemochromatosis that increases iron absorption and results in a gradual, organ-damaging buildup of stored iron, although symptoms of the problem usually don’t become apparent until midlife or later.

We would like to announce that Dr. Eric Shreve has joined our team.

Iron has long been the nation’s most common nutritional deficiency, but now more attention is being paid to the opposite problem: iron overload.

Factors affecting iron absorption Iron deficiency can result in a confusing array of symptoms, including fatigue and weakness, poor work performance, increased risk of infections, difficulty keeping warm, lightheadedness, rapid heartbeat and shortness of breath with exercise.

Studies have suggested that people who engage regularly in strenuous exercise, especially adolescents and vegetarians, are at increased risk of developing iron-deficiency anemia.

Iron deficiency is rare in men and postmenopausal women, and most should avoid supplements containing iron to reduce the risk of organ damage from too much iron. Also, if a routine blood test indicates low iron, experts warn against simply taking a supplement. Rather, a doctor should first check for hidden blood loss or impediments to iron absorption resulting from diet habits, medications or chronic health conditions, like colitis or the aftermath of weight-loss surgery.

There are two kinds of dietary iron, heme and nonheme. Heme iron, found only in meat, fish and poultry, is much better absorbed that the nonheme iron found in vegetables, fortified foods, supplements and acidic foods cooked in cast-iron pots. Whereas 15 to 30 percent of heme iron consumed is absorbed, only 5 percent of nonheme iron gets into the blood. To assure adequate iron absorption, some vegans and vegetarians may need to take a supplement.

Various factors can affect iron absorption. Some vegetables, like spinach (Popeye not-

withstanding), contain oxalic acid, which interferes with iron absorption. High-fiber foods like whole grains that contain phytates and foods high in calcium also diminish the amount of iron that enters blood. But the vitamin C and other acids naturally present in fruits, fruit juices and some vegetables increase iron absorption.

In a subsequent study by the Framingham researchers, men and women ages 68 to 93 had the highest levels of stored iron if they consumed red meat four or more times a week, took more than 30 milligrams of an iron supplement daily or ate more than 21 servings of fruit each week. However, levels were much lower among those who consumed more than seven servings of whole grains each week.

Hazards of iron overload Earlier this year, Nutrition Action Healthletter, published by the Center for Science in the Public Interest, summarized the latest evidence for the effects of excess iron stores.

The problem with too much stored iron is that, short of bleeding, the body can’t easily get rid of it. Menstruating women are unlikely to have a problem, but for others with high stores the recommended treatments include phlebotomy and frequent blood donation. Without these measures, excess iron is deposited in the liver, heart and pancreas, where it can cause cirrhosis, liver cancer, cardiac arrhythmias and diabetes.

These health consequences can develop even in people without hemochromatosis, the genetic disorder, who ac-

cumulate very high levels of stored iron. For example, among 32,000 women followed for 10 years in the Nurses’ Health Study, those with the highest levels of stored iron were nearly three times as likely to have diabetes as those with the lowest levels.

Likewise, among 38,000 men in the Health Professionals Follow-up Study, those who consumed the most heme iron had a 63 percent greater risk of developing diabetes.

While the risk of cancer from too much iron is uncertain except in people with hemochromatosis, the known links between high levels of red meat consumption and cancers of the colon and prostate are highly suggestive of an increased risk associated with excessive consumption of heme iron.

As for heart disease, the link found in some studies to high levels of heme iron consumption may reflect the effect of saturated fats from red meat, the richest source of heme iron, more than that of iron itself.

High levels of iron have been found in the brains of people with neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (Lou Gehrig’s disease). But sick brain cells accumulate abnormal levels of minerals like aluminum, so iron in these cases may be an effect of brain disease rather than its cause.

Nonetheless, there are ample health and environmental reasons to limit consumption of red meat to no more than two or three times a week and to focus more on poultry, seafood and plant sources of protein.

F Why feet go numb when exercising

The plank strengthens abs and lower back

Have you ever been exercising and realized your feet were numb?

“There are a couple of reasons it can happen depending on the person and sport,” said trainer Shannon Segerstrom, owner of inMotion Training Studio in Bend.

In kick boxing or on an elliptical machine, a person may be continually on the ball of the foot, and that pressure can affect a nerve that makes the foot go

The plank is a top pick for improving total body strength, and particularly targets the abdominals and lower back. An isometric pose, this exercise works many muscle groups at the same time, and requires no equipment.

Execution: Start by lying face down, arms bent and resting on the forearms. The elbows should be directly under the shoulders.

Slowly lift your hips from the floor, making sure not to bend at

I NM O T I O N numb, she said. Different shoes may help, but some people need to see a specialist if they have nerve problems.

Shoes that are too tight or too loose can also be a culprit.

“You can try different shoes or try orthotics to take pressure off of the ball of the foot. With

biking, shoes tend to be smaller and then when we exercise the foot swells or expands and may trigger the nerve,” she said.

Barefoot sports such as stand-up paddleboarding or sand volleyball may create foot numbness at first too, until the foot muscles get used to that sort of exercise. It might have to do with the muscles in the foot working over time to keep the body balanced, she said.

This marathon is extreme — even in running circles

By Lenny Bernstein The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — If misery could be measured in meters, surely the place to do it, with agonizing precision, was the outdoor track at Falls Church (Va.) High School on Saturday afternoon. That’s where 10 hardy masochists decided to run a marathon, covering 26.2 miles 400 meters at a time, 105½ laps in all, around and around like human stock cars at Daytona.

What drew me to the inaugural “Last Track to Boston” event was the idea that anyone would choose to do this when he or she could sign up for one of the hundreds of marathons held throughout the United States and the rest of the world. Those runs would take you up mountains and down river valleys, past famous monuments, through urban neighborhoods, along trails in the woods — pretty much anywhere except the baked black rubber surface of a high school track.

It is 89 degrees when I arrive shortly before 4:30 p.m., less than an hour into the race, with 54 percent humidity that makes it feel like 95 degrees.

Ideally, marathons should start near dawn and be run in 40- or 50-degree weather.

The runners already are drenched in their own sweat, which drips from their hats and runs down their legs into their squishy shoes. A couple of older guys are already plodding. If there is a circle in hell for marathoners, it undoubtedly resembles this oval.

At least, that’s how I feel about it. The runners mostly disagree. In July, several of them ran an indoor marathon, which is held on a 200-meter track and takes 211 laps to complete.

“It’s to do something different and see how your body responds to this,” says Tammy Bagdasarian, 44, of Herndon, Va., one of two women to finish the race (Bagdasarian was second in 5:25:43). The course doesn’t bother Bagdasarian much, though she prefers ultramarathons, which tax a variety of muscles because the terrain varies. “It’s not bad, except the heat,” she says.

Eugene Fritzel, 62, of Lu-

Dayna Smith / The Washington Post

Race organizer Jay Jacob Wind, 62, of Arlington, Va., ran a full marathon (105½ laps) Saturday on the Falls Church (Va.) High School track.

therville, Md., is running his 203rd marathon over the past 23 years, a race history that includes at least one run in each of the 50 states and the indoor marathon in Arlington, Va., in July that attracted 37 runners.

“It’s hot. It’s miserable. It’s just not as easy as a regular marathon,” he tells me as we walk a few laps together. Fritzel would finish in 5:47:38, long after the sun set, yet he is having a good time. “It’s a small bunch of people. You see the same people. It’s different,” he says. “… It’s actually kind of great.”

Saturday’s event was set up

by Jay Jacob Wind, of Arlington, who told me he has been staging races in the Washington area since 1981. With the qualifying period for the 2013 Boston Marathon nearly over, he wanted to give runners one last chance to gain entry to the historic race. He figured a flat course with easy access to water, food and bathrooms would give them their best shot.

Wind, a scrawny 62-yearold who has been running most of his life, finished third in 3:56:35.

I’ve been to distance events crammed into tiny spaces, notably a triple Ironman triathlon in Virginia’s Lake Anna State Park whose bike leg was 67 laps of the same five-mile stretch of blacktop and whose run leg covered just a two-mile stretch 39 times. The Savage Seven in Ocala, Fla. — whose participants try to complete seven marathons in seven days — was held on a track its

first two years.

Saturday’s run wasn’t quite that crazy, though the heat and humidity all but precluded a Boston qualifying time or personal best before the race even began. Yet onward they forged, with only a few starters dropping out.

In fact, the winner, Miguel Angel Sanchez-Ruano, 45, of Woodbridge, Va. (3:50:11), and second-place finisher, Nicklaus Randall Combs, 29, of Fairfax, Va. (3:55:20), were running their first organized marathons.

Perhaps my favorite runner was Edward Keller, a lieutenant colonel in the Kansas National Guard stationed in Washington, who ultimately finished last in 6:14:26. Keller, 50, doesn’t look like a marathoner and he was already suffering when I arrived. But there was no chance he would quit. I mean, no chance. He was running his 16th marathon since January, including the brutal Pikes Peak Marathon in Colorado in August, and plans to do more, including the JFK 50 Mile race in Boonsboro, Md., in November.

“Runners, we don’t like to rest on our laurels,” he said.

“We like to compete and challenge our bodies.” He also likened the race to his deployments to Iraq, where he was in charge of defending a U.S. base.

No matter what happens, he said, “You’ve got to put your boots on and get to your job.

People are counting on you to do your job.”

the waist or allow excess arching/sagging of the lower back.

Your body should be held in a rigid pose, and when viewed from the side, should be in a straight line from head to heels.

Hold this position for as long as possible. Time yourself to get an idea of current strength, and try to improve upon this over time. A good goal is to work up to 60 seconds or longer.

Before and after, take time to gently stretch by lying on your back and slowly pulling both

In this case, it describes high-intensity interval resistance training, which includes WEEK 4 resting between sets of intense • Demand the muscle action. most of your WEEK 3 body.

WOMEN, TAKE NOTE: Start Week 1 during the PMS week, menstrual cycle days 21-28.

During this week, women should change jumps and hops to stationary exercises.

The hormonal fluctuation of women can affect training. When hormones are optimized, during the third and fourth week of the progression, strength, power and the nervous system are optimized.

Week 2 should fall within the period week, menstrual cycle days 1-5.

Andy Zeigert / The Bulletin

Progression Continued from F1 After a few boosts in effort and corresponding adaptations in the body, a person’s progress will plateau, typically in four to six weeks. So it’s time to do something different. For example: increase weight lifting repetitions from two sets to three sets; or reduce the repetitions from 12 to eight while adding more weight to increase the intensity; or try a new and different type of exercise altogether.

“The additional strain on the nervous system will tell it, ‘I need to find a new gear.’

It needs time to learn how to shift into first gear, then into second gear,” he said.

If a person’s goal was to run a 10K race in a certain,

faster time, it would not help to go run 10K every day for 90 days leading up to a race.

That doesn’t teach the body to run faster.

Instead, Young said, the first four-week plan would be to try to progressively run 2K faster. The next four-week block would focus on running 4K faster. The final four-week block would focus on running 6K faster. Each time the runner’s body adapts to running a shorter distance faster, the runner would increase the distance a little.

It’s important to include rest and recovery in any ambitious exercise plan.

During any “time off” a person can still do gentle exercise such as yoga or pilates, walking or stretching. In other words, he said,

“light activity, just not hammering it.”

Everyone needs at least one day off a week, Young said.

A person who has been sedentary for at least three months can generally keep going for up to 16 weeks without any big breaks — that is, anything more significant than a day off — and continue to see progress.

Intermediate exercisers need at least two to three days off every four to eight weeks.

More advanced exercisers should take a full week off every three to four weeks.

“People often ask, ‘Why take a week off? I feel great,’ ” Young said. “Well, then you didn’t … push yourself hard enough.”

knees toward the chest.

A good starting point for beginners would be to perform one or two repetitions if able to hold for 30 seconds or longer.

If less than 30 seconds, lower your body when fully fatigued, rest for 10 to 15 seconds, then try again, until total repetitions reach a total of 60 seconds.

If you find you are unable to do a regular plank, you can bend the knees instead of keeping the legs straight.
