Many of these students do not qualify for much help from federal financial aid tuition programs because their in family's income is slightly too high, yet covering the cost of college tuition is a challenge. 'They are caught in between," Dowdy said. Students from low-income families, on the other hand, will not benefit as much from Oregon Promise because they already qualify for significant financial aid for community college. The vast bulk of the Oregon Promise program is funded by federal financial aid money already available to college students. Dowdy said about 18 percent of LHS's 2015 graduates went on to attend community college, according to a survey of 116 students.

a 1 ea When it comes to taxes, everyone tends to cringe. That's because, at the end of the day, most of us would rather skip the whole notion of giving up a portion of our hard-earned income to the state or the federal government. No one likes to pay taxes but the process is as old as the Republic and a necessary instrument to government. And, like clockwork, every political season a new tax proposal tends to drik across the political landscape in Oregon. Occasionally one or two of those concepts make sense. Often, however, the ideas are shallow and ill-advised. A good case in point is the move to place a tax proposal — called IP28 — on the November ballot. Essentially IP28 — sometimes dubbed "the gross-rec eiptstax"— isa plan to boostthe state's corporate minimum tax for business that record gross sales that surpass $25 million a year by addinga 2.5 percent charge,orlevy,on profi ts. Supporters of the proposal assert the extra cash collected will be funneled into education, healthcare and senior services. At first glance the idea seems to have some merit. After all, taking a stab at corporations is an easy way out in terms of collective responsibility for taxpayers and seemingly opens a channel to help elderly and youth. Yet the plan is flawed and should be a non-starter for discriminating voters. One major defect in the proposal is that is appears to ignore the reality that big corporations, if suddenly faced with a new, multi-million-dollar levy, will not pass that cost onto the consumer. Especially for utilities, a new tax such as the one proposed will most likely mean the real cost will be passed on to ratepayers. That means the taxpayer will, in fact, be forced to open their wallet. Again. Advocates of the proposal point to "out-of-state corporations" that are seemingly thieving from the simple taxpayer. That argument is simple-minded. Another assertion is that once faced with such a tax, big corporations will search for methods to ofI'set internal costs without hitting consumers. That line of thinking is, at its very best, simply nafve. Often ballot measures are viewed as a way to take difficult issues straight to the voter. We don't arguethatballotm easures donothavevalue.W e believe they do. However, an idea such as the one proposed in IP28 is too sweeping, too imprudent and a needless waste of voter time and attention. If, indeed, such a plan is worth debate, the best placeforittobevetted isin theLegislature,notat the ballotbox.

The proposal was widely met with approval at the meeting. Mayor Steve Clements said that the committeehad previously decided totakepolice department and fire department service reductionsoffthe table, and that human resource and information technology positions for the city would not be added this year. Those decisions will be expressly explained at the beginning of the meeting, as well. "For those items that we don't necessarilyfeelcom fortable with a consensus, we should keep them on and present them to the public next week and gather some input fiom them," Clements said. Everything else, including closing the Veterans Memorial Pool for three months, the elimination of the recreation program and reducing library expenditures, are on the table. The values of the cuts or expenditures versus thecostswillbepresented, along with a rough vision of what any decision would look like in the future.

In the hours afterward, Whitby spoke at length with The Oregonian/OregonLive as his parents drove him back to the family farm 30 miles north of Washington's Tri-Cities. "Thank God I'm alive," Whitby said at the time. cNow I've got to figure out why." A year later, the 28-yearold said he knows that question is a doozy. "It's going to take therest of my life," he said of finding the answer. Much has changed since the wreck. The Whitbys welcomed their second son, Karter, in June.

"It put a damper on things, and put more strain on everybody," he said of the injury, which put him out of commission for weeks during the busiest time of the year for dealing with cattle. Whitby said it feels like he's lived a lot more than a year's worth oflife in the past 12 months. There are times when he still thinks about the crash. Bob Baker owns several

towing companies in Eastern Oregon, and he's seen dozens of fatal wrecks in his career. He expected to see several fatalities from the Jan. 17 wreck on Interstate 84. Kaleb Whitby's miraculous survival is most amazing to him. Whitby's more careful, more cautious behind the wheel. "Things are fragile. And you've experienced what it's like," he said of a near-death experience. But mostly he's thankful, and he has no immediate plans to head back on the stretch ofhighway near Baker City, where he was involved in his first accident. "I don't think I'm particularly excited about going that way again," he said.

Buffalo hires female coach Kathryn Smith was hired by the Buffalo Bills Wednesday as a specialteams quality control coach, making her the first full-time female coach in NFL history. Smith had spent more than a decade with the Newyork Jets as a special events/game day intern, a college scouting intern and a player personnel assistant. She spent her final year in New York as an assistant to former coach Rex Ryan, and became part of the Bills' staff under Ryan when he went to Buffalo following the 2014 season. It's the second time the Bills have broken the gender barrier in the NFL. Linda Bogdan, who died in 2009 and was the daughter of former Bills' owner Ralph Wilson, became the league's first female scoutin 1986.

After getting dominated on the glass in Sunday's loss at Colorado, Oregon coach Dana Altman had a pointed message for Elgin Cook and Dwayne Benjamin. The time for leadership fiom the two seniors was now. Cook responded by matching his career high with 26 points and Benjamin had his best scoring game since early December with 16 off the bench to lead Oregon to an 89-81 victory over No. 21 Southern California on Thursday night. "I told iElginl and Dwayne that they played the way seniors are supposed to play, so I shouldn't be shocked," Altman said."I was dis-

Enterprise's lightweight wrestlers continued their winning ways Wednesday at the Border Battle in Wallowa. The Outlaws totaled seven victories on the night, with five of the wins coming at each weight between 106 and 132 pounds. 'The kids wrestled really well for the small type of match it was," Enterprise head coach Troy Farwell said.'Wehad a really good showing." The Battle was a series of bouts between the Class 1A and 2A wrestlers of Union and Wallowa counties, and saw a handful of grapplers take to the mat multiple times. Some even wrestled up a weight class in order to get everyone a match. Shane Lund picked up a pin over Elgin's Zack Graves at 106 pounds, while the other four matches went the distance. Cole Farwell defeated Ty Hook of Elgin at 113 pounds by an 11-1 major decision, while Dylan Staigle alsodefeated Hook at120,but by a much closer, 6-5, decision. Evan Johnson scored a 12-0major decision over Imbler's Logan Butcher at 126 pounds and Clayne Miller edged Wallowa's Austin Brockcamp, 7-5, with a takedown in overtime in a 132-pound match.

Ammon Bundy, who is the selfproclaimedleader ofthe armed occupation, spoke on the phone with an FBI negotiator at the driveway to the airport, where federal authorities have set up shop, The Associated Press reported.

Gov. Kate Brown ended weeks of relative silenceWednesday on the armed occupation of the Malheur NationalWildlife Refuge, which was taken overJan. 2 by a group led by Nevada rancherAmmon Bundy. to drive the occupiers out of town. Gov. Kate Brown talked Wednesday with the director of the FBI and wmte letters that same day to President Obama and Attorney General Ioretta Lynch aboutpotential ways out of the

said in a statement.eOur response has been deliberate and measum1 as we seekapeacefulresolution." Brown told reporters Wednesday she remained silent at the request of federal officials. But that silence broke this week as she privately and publicly sought to ramp up pressure on the FBI to end the occupation. "State officials, including me, have been asked by federal officials to limit our public comments to avoidescalating thesituation,and I have complied," Brown said."But I will say this ... the situation is absolutely intolerable, and it must be resolved immediately." The governor's only public statement before Wednesday came Jan. 7, when her office released a written statement telling the occupiersto "decamp immediately." Brown pegged the cost to local law enforcement at around $100,000 per week, noting the first week probably cost more. She said she11ask lawmakers next month to repay all costs incurred by local governments.

The letters, along with a strong statement she made during a brief press conferenceWednesday, mark a new public approach from the governor, who called for astronger federalresponse to the armed occupiers who, have been all but free to enterand leave thefederalfacility they've controlled since Jan. 2. "Because this occupation has occuned on federal land,itis appmpriate that the FBI and other federal law enforcemententitiesaretheleaders on anyresponse to it," Bmwn wrote to Lynch and James Comey, the FBI dnector. 'We appreciate therecognition of their responsibilityin this situation." "However, for the citizens of H arney County and indeed all Oregonians, I must insist on a swift resolution to this matter." The FBI didn't respond to a request for comment on its efforts to potentially negotiate with the armed occupiers.

Record Latino voters

The Associated Press

a growing pool of potential Hispanic voters in the United States, driven largely by young people, Latinos are likely to be underrepresented at the polls in 2016, a study released Tuesday has found. The Pew Research Center foundthat a record number of Hispanic voters could head to the polls in November, topping the 11.2 million who voted in 2012, but that Hispanic millennialswho are driving growth in the population of Hispanic eligible voters — will keep turnout low. A majority of Hispanics, 52 percent, are too young to vote or are not U.S. citizens. The findings come from an analysis of Census Bureau datareviewed by therespected Pew Research Center. Only 48 percent of eligibleHispanic voters casta ballotin 2012, compared to 64 percentofw hitevoters and 67 percent ofblack eligible voters. That figure was even less for eligible Hispanic millennial voters, with only 38 percent casting a ballot in 2012, the report found. Mark Lopez, Pew's director of Hispanic research,said the low turnout is largely driven by geography. He said more than half of the nation's eligible Hispanic voters, about 52 percent, are in California, Texas and New York — none of which are battlegroundstatesthatcan sway an election.

SNOWSHOEING: AN ACCESSIBLE WINTER SPORT

PILCHER CREEK RESERVOIR • Due to a rule change for 2016, the reservoir is open to fishing, effective on Jan. 1 and is open to fishing yearround. Access to the reservoir is fair. Tucker Flat Road has been plowed, but the snow is deep and getting from the road to the reservoir could be difficult.

v t

POWDER RIVER • Effective Jan. 1, the Powder River is open to trout fishing yearround, with a fivetrout bag limit. This is a new regulation for 2016.

WALLOWA RIVER • The Wallowa River is free of ice and a few anglers are finding steelhead. As winter progresses and fish move toward the hatchery facilities, fishing will improve.

UNITY RESERVOIR • Unity Reservoir is ice-covered with good access. The road and parking area at Unity State Park is being plowed and well maintained. Fish are running 10 to 19 inches but the catch rate is low. JaysonJacoby/yyescom News Sennce

GRANDE RONDE RIVER • The Grande Ronde River is no longer locked in ice and flows are at a desirable range for catching steelhead. Water temperatures are still cold so look for fish in slow tail outs where fish can rest. This year's run of steelhead is one of the best in recent years and catch rates have been good throughout the season. The new closure date for the Grande Ronde River steelhead fishery is April 30.Year-round fishing for hatchery trout started Jan. 1.

HUNTING REPORT UPLAND GAME BIRDS • The season for chukars, Hungarian partridges and California quail ends Jan. 31 in Baker County. • The season for ruffed and blue grouse ends Jan. 31 statewide. WATERFOWL • The duck-hunting season closes Jan. 24 at Ladd Marsh.

Snowshoes can help you get to magical places. But they're not magic. These contraptions make it easier to walk through deep snow, to be sure. Theyjust don't necessarily make iteasy. The laws of physics or fluid dynamics or whichever branch of science itis that deals with the stability of snow, ultimately prevail no matter how clever the snowshoe design. Snow,beingnothing more than an accumulation of fiagile ice crystals, has much in common with a house ofcards. Both can rise to prodigious heights, but neither can bear much ofaload. The idea behind snowshoes is simple, and it's little wonder that humans figured out the basics something like 5,000 years ago. People, with our prodivity for walking on our two narrow feet, are poorlyadapted forgetting around in deep silow. Most of our weight presses on two relatively small patches, so our feet tend to sink into any surface that's less than solid. Snowshoes diminish this disadvantage by distributing our pounds over a larger area. Generally speaking, the larger the snowshoe the greater its"flotation" — meaningits ability to keep your feet from pl~ t hr o ugh the

Strapping on a pair of snowshoes makes it easier to get to places, and scenes, like this one in the forest near Phillips Reservoir, about 17 miles southwest of Baker City. snow. Snowcats and snowmobiles, with theirwide treads,operate on the same principle. On snow that has consolidated afteran extended dry period, especially one marked by daytime thawing and nighttime freezing, snowshoes can allow you to stay on topofthecrust. Northeastern Oregon is renowned, of course, for its powder snow. And ifyou go snowshoeing after a major storm you should expect to digin from several inches to a foot with each stride.

Reseavch reveals salmon secrets Scientists in Oregon are learning more about how salmon find their way home, and their research could help to improve hatchery programs that have played an important role in the survival of these iconic Northwest fish. The fish detect unique chemical signatures in the water and use the earth's magnetic field for homing to help them find their way, say researchers at the Oregon Hatchery Research Center.

The Grand Ronde Valley is a marvelous place to live and visit for many reasons. One such reason is the changing seasons. When winter throws her blanket down and Jack Frost perfects his artistry, it is time to enjoy snow sports. Winter can seem overwhelming to those who have not been properly introduced. A great, unintimidating day outing is located just southwest of La Grande. Morgan Lake, well-known in the spring and summer for free camping and fun fishing, is the perfect place to check out what winter enjoyment is all about. The fenced city park contains Morgan and Twin Lakes and a large amount of marshy riparian zone. During the summer, the marshy habitat is not conducivetorambling.However, after agood cold snap and a dusting of snow, Morgan Lake City Park is ready for exploration. The approach to the land, bought by the City of La Grande from California Pacific Utilities in 1959 for recreation use by La Grande residents, is an undertaking of its own. Morgan Lake is only two miles from town but at one pointthe accessroad steepens to a 15-percent grade. Junketeers on bicycles should ride something low geared with studdedti res.Thosewho preferto drive best use the same and four-wheel drive. During the winter, the camp host and the anglers have gone home but the towering ponderosa pines, bushy shrubs and pict uresque basaltblockshave stayed behind. The road is generally plowed to the junction for Morgan Lake Road, if not to the lake itself. Approach the lake from the south end. To the west thereisa gateto keep motorized traflic out during the winter but snowshoes, fat bikes, ice skaters and cross-country skiers are welcome. Snowshoes are a great way to discover the snow without the intimidation of wax, huge tires, speed or studs. There have been vast improvements in snowshoes in the recent years making them significantly lighter and easier to use. The new shape and lack of wobble in the bindings have eliminated much of the bow-legged, knee-stressing stride ofthe past. I highly suggest practicing getting in andoutofthe trapsbefore attempting it in the snow. Expandable trekking poles are also desirable when snowshoeing. Like most new outdoor gear, the less something weighs the more it will cost and there might be an additional safety gadget embedded in it. I suggest starting the journey on the west side of the lake. The main road around the lake, highlighted by the gate, is fairly flat and sneaks between Morgan and Twin Lakes. See MorganlPage 2C

If the lake is frozen, it is a delightfully smooth traveling surface. Be careful when first testing the ice. Snowshoes will disperse an individual's weight but it is still very possible to fall through. If you are lucky, you might get to see down through the ice and check out the air bubbles that were caught when the lake was freezing. If nothing else, the diamonds hiding in the snow, hoar frost rising out of the ground and sparkling ice crystals on the trees are breathtaking. Navigatingtheedge ofM organ Lake back to the beginning spans almost two miles. For additional distance, the frozen marsh is nice to traverse. As long as no main roads or fences are crossed, the wanderer should remain within the park's 204-acre boundary. I had a great time exploring Morgan Lake and I hope you will too. The things that really made my day special were the frost-laden pine needles, hot tea on the far side of the lake with my daughter and my neck gaiter. The neck gaiter I use for outings like this is manufactured by Bonlrager and is a thin polyester tube. I frequently make an exaggerated hairband out of it to keep my ears warm and yetstilllettheheatescape from the top of my head. At one point, before the sun came out and the wind was picking up, I used it as a very unstylish, but warm, hat. Appropriate attire for any winter outdoor adventure consists of at least three main layers. • First, some wicking material close to your body to wick any sweat you might work up

away. • Next, there should be at minimum one layer of something thin and fabulous for warmth but hopefully still made of a wicking fabric. • Last follows an outer shell. The outer shell should be at least semi windproof and I always prefer if it contains a hood. Nothing worn on a winter adventure should contain cotton. Instead, use materials made of wool, silk and plastics. Sufficient footwear is also imperative. GoreTex and Thinsulate have revolutionized the outdoor industry and are well worth their cost. So suit up in a few layers, dig out the wool socks, rent, borrow or buy a set of snowshoes and then chase away the winter blues at Morgan Lake.

You'll have to get used to the oversized footwear, of course, and you'll likely feel a trifle clumsy at first, but snowshoeing is, in effect, walking. "I think snowshoeing is growing in popularity, in largepartbecause there is zero learning curve," said Jim Whitbeck, who owns Blue Mountain Outfitters in La Grande."It helps you get out in the snow without having to worry about your gear." Trekking poles, an increasingly common accessory for summer hikers, can help you maintain your balance, especially in deep snow or when going up or down hills, Hatch said.

TESTING

To benefit a patient's health, a test must be accurate. It must also reveal some condition or risk that can be prevented or treated. Even the best tests are not 100 percent accurate, and some may not work as well as they claim. The Food and Drug Administration, which is making a case for greateroversight ofsome tests, recently highlighted 20 tests thatcould cause harm. These include ovarian cancer screenings that frequentiy indicated cancer when none was present, and prenatal testsintended to detectbirth defects that sometimes prompted women to terminate pregnancies based on inaccurate results. Others can uncover things that don't pose danger —theprostate tumor growing so slowly that the patient will die of other causesbeforeitbecomes a threat, for example.

The guidelines are based on evidence that screening women in their 40s avoidsvery few deaths at the cost of many, many falsepositives.H erearethe numbers: Over 10 years, screening 10,000 women in their 40s prevents aboutfour deaths from breast cancer. Every time 10,000 women in their 40s are screened,though, m ore than 1,200 getfalse positiveresults,and some of them will get biopsies. In addition, every 10,000 mammograms result in 10 to13 false negativesmeaning missed cancers — so a negative resultis not an absolute guarantee that no cancer is present. The task force isn't advising against mammograms for women in their 40s. For women of average risk, "the decision to screen should be an individual one, made afterawoman weighs the potential benefit against the possi bleharms,"according to the recommendation.

Intermittent fasting Fasting is nothing new, with saints, ascetics and regular peoplechoosing periodsofself-denialasa path to enlightenment, spiritually and otherwise. Modern-day advocates say intermittent fasting can help reduce obesity and diabetes, im prove cardiovascular health and extend life. Popularstrategieshave people going food-freefor 24 hoursonceor tw ice a week, skipping breakfast or eating like a"warrior" — fasting daily for 20hours, then eating one large meal, usually in the evening. Experts say, sure, a day of fasting each week could reduce someone's weekly calorie intake, which theoretically could help with weight loss, but overall, they discourage the practice.Its benefits haven't been proven, and it's not a long-term way to lose or maintain weight, says DiPaola. Adds Lisa Cimperman, a registered dietitian at Cleveland's University Hospitals Case Medical Center and spokeswoman for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics: "From a metabolic standpoint, we know that in periods of starvation, the metabolism slows down." She addsthat peopleareprone to overeat when they break their fast."It justseems tosetup a bad psychological game."

Cleanses Apparently, we can't help ourselves: We still look to celebrities for nutrition advice. Consider the popularity of "cleanse" diets, which, similar to fasting, promise quick weight loss as well as other short- and long-term health benefits. Gwyneth Paltrow's seven-day"Master Cleanse," for example, involves a sharp reduction in food intake, supplanted by smoothiesand occasional servings of "detox" fish or chicken. Expertsare generally skepticalof cleanseprograms, because like fasting diets, they aren't sustainable. They alsomay deprivepeople ofsufficient nutrients as well as fiber for digestion.

Don't

forego insurance in 2016

By John Tozzi Bloomberg News

efore you throw up your hands in frustration over Obamacareand decide to go uninsured in 2016, please reconsider. The health insurance enrollment period ends Jan. 31. If you do not enroll by the deadline, you will be locked out of coverage until next January. That leaves you and your family open to a serious illness or injury that could cause you significant financial hardship. It also means you could be subject to a large penalty when it comes time to file your 2016 taxes. My colleagues and I at Valley Insurance have met with literally hundreds of families in Union County since Nov. 1. The vast majority of families are qualifying for 2016 tax credits through HealthCare.

gov, some ashigh at $800 per month, to help make their health insurance premiums affordable. If a family qualifies for $300 per month in advance premium tax credits, forexample,the costoftheir health plan is reduced by that amount. The tax credit goes directly to the insurance company, which then bills the member for the balance. Oregonians got hit hard with huge rate increases for2016.According to the state, claims in the Oregon individual market in 2014 exceeded premiums by $127 million. The 2015 claims may be even higher. That is what initially happens when no one can be denied coverage and those newly insured seek m edical careforconditions they mayhave ignored for years. The 2016 rates reflect the high claims and premium shortfalls from 2014, the first full year of claims experience available since major provisionsoftheAffordableCare Act took effect. The good news is that the taxcreditsare tied tothesecond lowest-cost silver plan in our area. Because that silver plan took about a 25 percent rate jump for 2016, the tax creditsare higher for 2016, often making up the difference in increased premiums. Several families have walked through our doors ready to canceltheircoverage only to be pleasantly surprised that they will be paying about the same monthly premium as in 2015. Tax credits are based on a family's size, age and yearly income. We are seeing"older" families qualifying for larger taxcredits,in partbased on their higher premiums, as SeeStewart / Page 5C

Or maybe you need a quick rebootafterallthatholiday eating and drinking. Wouldn't a"cleanse," ofthesorttouted by celebrities,do the trick? Similarly, perhaps you've been reading about how fasting a day a week helps set people on the path to a longer life. But do these strategies and others making headlines really work? Are they actually good for you, and are they worth the attention, time and money that major lifestyle changes usually involve? We checked in with health experts on the top diet trends they regularly encounter through working with clients or poring through studies. And here are their takes:

Gluten-free Some publications proclaim the gluten-free frenzy is passe. But that's not what experts are seeing, and these same publications note that an estimated third of American adults are anxious enough about gluten that they are looking

for ways to reduce or eliminate it from their diets. "Gluten-free foods are still selling strong," says Sonya Angelone, a Marin County, California-based dietitian and spokeswoman with the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. But she and other experts say there is little evidence that most people need to say no to gluten — a protein humans have been consuming in wheat, barley and rye for thousands of years. Going gluten-fi'ee is only medically necessary for the 1 percent of Americans who have been diagnosed with celiac disease, an autoimmune disorder where ingestion of gluten causes damage to the small intestines and can be life-threatening. Another small number of people have been told by their doctors they have gluten sensitivity, in which case splurging on birthday cake could trigger problems with digestion, immune and even cognitive function, adds

Angelone. KevinLomangino,managing editor of Health News Review, doesn't doubt people'sclaims that they feel better after giving up gluten, which is often associated with foods that are rich in refined carbohydrates. But it's most likely a placeboeffect,he says."It'snot because there is anything bad about gluten. You feel better because you made a change." Mary Ellen DiPaola, an outpatient senior dietitian at University of California San Francisco, says going gluten-fiee can be challenging but there's no harm in it, if it leads people to cut back on highcalorie breads, pastas and snack foods— and as long astheyreplace those energy sources with healthy options like whole grains, legumes and vegetables. The problem comes when people believe that often pricey gluten-free sweets and snacks are more nutritious. "If you're eating rice cakes all SeeDiet / Page 5C

For healthy teeth, don't brush after eating

Self-defense class to be held at Baker YMCA

Don't brush your teeth immediately after meals and drinks, especially if they were acidic. Acidic foods — citrus fruits, sports drinks, tomatoes, soda (both diet and regular) — can soften tooth enamel "like wet sandstone," says Howard R. Gamble, immediate past president of theAcademy of General Dentistry. Brushing your teeth at this stage can speed up acid's effect on your enamel and erode the layer underneath. Gamble suggests waiting 30 to 60 minutes before brushing.

The Baker CountyYMCA has scheduled a seminar on self defense for women. It begins at 11 a.m. Saturday at the fitness center, 3715 Pocahontas Road, Baker City. The presenter is Betty Peacock. The class will teach basic moves and the importance of knowing your surroundings. The content is designed for ages16 and older, although ages14 and 15 can attend if accompanied by an adult.

When shouldwomen get screened for breast cancer? It's a fraught question. Mamm ograms can yield false positives ordetectlesions that pose no health threat, making patients anxious and exposing them to risks of follow-up tests. But not getting screened may risk missing the chance, however small, to catch a dangerous tumor early. Difficult decisions like this will become more common as medical tests and health information become unbound from the doctor's office. Lab tests that used to require a visit to a clinic are increasingly availableand marketed — directly to consumers. Apps promise to track everything from how well you sleep to when you're most likely to get pregnant. The Apple Watch will measure your heart rate. A lot of money is riding on giving people more information about their own bodies and behavior. A new venture backed by Jeff Bezos and Bill Gates aims to create a blood testthat can detectearlystage cancer in people with no symptoms.

Laboratory Corporation of America, the diagnostics giant with $8 billion in annual revenue, last year announced it would start selling tests directly to consumers. While investors and entrepreneurs see a business opportunity, we don't yet know what the proliferation oftesting and self-tracking means for human health. Advocates see the potential to detect diseaserisksearly and lowerthe odds ofgetting sick. Skeptics fear it could lead to a black hole of anxiety and wasted money that does more harm than good. "It's the customization and consumerization ofhealth care,and thatisagreatthing if done right," said Michael Parkinson, past president of the American College of Preventive Medicine."All thesethings can be effective, but they can also be potentially dead ends or money and energy misspent if they're not appropriatel y understood."

but Mike Nichols had a way with actors.

The proof is in the productions he directed for the smge and movie ' and television screens, including "Barefoot in 6e Park," "The Odd Couple," "Who's Afraid of Virginia WoolP.," "The Graduate," "Silkvvood," "Working Girl," "The Birdcage," "Wit" and "Angels in America." Fourteen months after

6e death of the widely esteemed EGOT — a winner of four Emmys, a Grammy, an Oscar and nine Tonys — his story is told largely in his own words, as related in an interview wi& producerJulian Schlossberg, in a new "American Masters" profile Friday,

Tlle Iate M>ke N>chplg

recaps his directing on 'American Masters'

The personal touches of the

"American Masters" program, she's seen pardcipadng in the presentadon ofhis 2010 American Film Institute Life Achievement Award, for which Nichols spoke with this writer at the time. "I feel like I've done somehing wrong," he said of that honor, "first by wanting it and second, by mtdng it. I need a big joke tto tell at the event ). Oherwise, all I have to do is cry." The husband of ABC journalist Diane Sawyer, Nichols is seen crying at a very telling point in his PBS interview, as he talks about Meryl Sucep's 1983 performance for him as nuclear-plant whistleblower Karen Silkvvood. It supports the reasoning he gave us about actors and roles: "If you Bind 6e right circumstances and the right expression of 6em, and it's perfectly clear what's happening, all the actor should have to do is ride it home. Somedmes, you Bind the physical expression that allows the actor just to live and respond."
