Members of the La Grande City Council can now be reached individually via the city's website. The city set up email addresses for the mayor and councilors this week at the request of Councilor Gary Lillard. Lillard, at the council's March 4 meeting, asked those on the council if they would be interested in having the emailaddressessetup for them. With a consensus, thecit y moved forward to set them up and placed links on the city's website. "It's just one more way for citizens to get in touch with their elected officials,a he said."It really comes down to communication between electedoffi cials and their constituents." Before the change, City Manager Robert Strope said, councilors were reached via the city manager, who forwarded the comments or concerns along to the entire council. A couple years ago the city added an"Ask the city manager" link, which sends questions to the city manager. There was also a contact form for residents. Those concerns went to the city manager office staf. If they could be handled administratively, they were. If not, they were forwarded to the council. "The council is a conduit for some of that information, but at the end of the day, it's pretty much going to come back to my desk to addressit,"said Strope, who as city manger handles much of the day-to-day work of the city.

The City of Enterprise secured funding through Business Oregon and the federal lnfrastructure Finance Authority for a water improvement project on Highway 82 between Robert and Arthur streets.

PROJECT Continued from Page1A access to the reservoir. The bid for contracting goesout mid-April to be returned in early May. The project will be awarded in mid-May. Baker said a "show me" tour would be arrangedforinterested contractors. There's a bit of a push to gettheprojectgoing ahead ofthestate' splan tochip seal Highway 82 the third week in June, Young said. The city needstocomplete itswater line work between Heavenly's Restaurant and Weaver's Welding before then. To jumpthrough the permitting hoops, the city must get aconditional usepermit from the county to build the

new reservoir and comply with Oregon Health Authority regulations. Young said the project is on the agenda for the March planning commission meeting. Young said the city sent lettersto adjacent landowners in advance of the construction. Young said the city public works crew has been highly involved with the prep work doing all the line locates and checking the lines. According to the city council, Enterprise is required by statelaw tocomplete aWa ter System Master Plan, which was prepared by the city's engineer. The analysis of water system pressures and flows showed major deficiencies in the system. One of the deficiencies is a violation of state law requir-

Glaze was praised for his work in developing and supporting the school district's Professional Learning Communities program, which the board said has boosted student performance.

'The board also recognizes the long hours and hard work you personally committedtothe successfulpassage of the school district's facilities bond.

The plan said there is an inadequatenumber offire hydrants, some residences are too far from a hydrant, there is inadequate water flow for fire protection at numerous areas in the city, some lines are woefully under-pressured, there are small and inadequate distribution lines and dead end lines. As for water storage,there are cracks and crumbling concrete in the underground reservoirand the water storage is inadequate. The alternative chosen by the city includes the creation

The superintendent, who had two yearslefton hisold contract,hasa rolling three-year contract. "It is a privilege and an honor to be able to serve thisschooldistrictas superintendent," Glaze said. Glaze is completing his seventh year as superintendent of the La Grande SchoolDistrictand 21styearoverall with the district. He was a grade school principal in the school district from 1986 to 2000. Glaze is completing his 40th year as an educator. Mark Mulvihill, superintendent of the InterMountain Education Service District, who was at Wednesday's meeting, also spoke highly of Glaze following the readingofthe board'sletter. Mulvihill gave Glaze much of the creditforthe passage ofthe schooldistrict's $31.85 million bond in November.

$765,000," Young said. To pay the bills related to the project, Young said the city makes reimbursement requests as needed. The water project is scheduled for completion in late 2016 or early 2017.

'The campaign was run flawlessly. Larry, that will be your legacy," Mulvi-

hill said. Mulvihill then addressed the status of the InterMountain ESD, which serves school districts in Union, Umatilla and Morrow counties. The ESD took a hit earlier this winter when the Hermiston School District, the largest in the InterMountain ESD, announced it was pulling out later this year. Mulvihill said the loss of the Hermiston School District will cost the ESD a netrevenue lossof$763,000 in 2015-16. He said, though, that the ESD will be able to absorb this loss without cutting back onthe servicesitprovidesbecause it has a strong reserve fund and has been budgeting conservatively since it was created in 2011. Services the La Grande School District receives from the ESD include assistance from audiology, speech and language, vision and diagnostician specialists.

These altered conditions contributeto increased probability of unnaturally severe wildfires, susceptibility to uncharacteristic insect outbreaks and drought-related impactto theforest.

Now, though, $100,000 of that funding will be convertedtoa grantup front and given to the bank. "This is an entirely different approach. To me, it's a verydifferent request,"said Clements, who did not sit on the agency when funding was approved last fall. One ofhis concerns, Clements said, was that the $100,000 will not accrue interest while in the hands of the bank, which could likely be earning money offit. Bozarth noted that the interest would be a minimal amount — maybe around

Berglund said after the meeting he was pleased with the outcome. 'This is a big hurdle," he said."I definitely appreciate the support of the agency." Berglund said with the financial aspect of the project taking longer than anticipated, the deadline extension was needed. Now, he said, he's focused on"making sure the store is everything the community is expecting — I'm feeling some pressure."

Union County will begin our roadside spraying program in the month ofMarch to control vegetation and noxious weeds that are encroaching on road shoulders and right of ways. In most locations, spraying will extend four to eight feet from pavement edges. Property owners who do not want herbicides applied near their property must sign an "Owner Will Maintain" agreement with the county which must be updated annually. The county will provide signs for the owners participating. Property owners wishing to participate can sign up for the "Owner Will Maintain" program at the Union County Public Works Department located at 10513 N. McAlister Road in Island City.

The Register-Guard newspaperofEugenereported that police say the womanis being tzeated for life-threateninginjuries at a Portland-area hospital. Police say a 911 caller reported Thursday afternoon that a car appeared to be on fire from the inside and the female at the wheel was driving recklessly. After the car crashed into a bridge guardrail, witnesses told police the woman jumped out — on fire — and began taking her clothes off as she ran to the

edge of the bridge.

Zigzag the river otter moving to Seattle PORTLAND — A river otter born at the Oregon Zoo will be moving next week to the Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle. Zigzig the river otter, who is also known as Ziggy, departs for Seattle on Monday. A keeper in the Portland zoo's North America section notes that otter pups in the wild usually stay with their mothers for about a year before setting out on their own, so this move is well timed. Zigzag is named for the river that flows down Mount Hood through the Zigzag Canyon. Keepers say the otter is an active young adult. His older brother, Molalla, lives nearby at the Seattle Aquarium.

Department of Human Services sued for $2.5M in boy's death • 2-year-old thrown head-first against toilet The Associated Press

PORTLAND — The attorney representing the estate of a toddler who died

last year has filed a $2.5 million lawsuit against the Oregon Department of Human Services, alleging child welfare workers failed to adequately intervene on the

child's behalf. Investigators believe 2-year-old Coltin Salsbury was killed when he was thrown head-first against a toilet in the Portland motel room where he lived with his mother, Wendy Salsbury, and her boyfriend, Joshua Howard. Howard, 28, has pleaded not guilty to a murder charge and is scheduled for trial in Multnomah County in October. Salsbury has not been charged with a crime. DHS records show the agency had received four reportsofsuspected child abuse or neglect while Salsbury was pregnant with Coltin or after she gave birth to him. "The more and more you know about the case, the more maddeningit is," attorney Josh Lamborn told The Oregonian. On Dec. 21, 2013, the toddlerwas atthe Seaside home ofhis father, who shared custody with Salsbury, when police were called to investigate bruises

on the boy, according to the lawsuit. The father told the officer he was upset because Coltin's mother had dropped the boy off at his house with injuries, and he thought she or her boyfriend was responsible, Lamborn said. The officer noticed various bruises, including ones that looked like finger marks on his buttocks, the suit states. But the lawsuit asserts the officer failed to follow Oregon law by reporting the suspected abuse to a child abuse assessment center within 48 hours. The city of Seaside also is listed as a defendant in the suit, along with DHS. The cityattorney for Seaside and a DHS spokeswoman declined to comment on the lawsuit. The offi cerwaited 18 days beforereporting the bruises to DHS, according to the lawsuit. The next day, a child welfare worker sent photographs taken by the officer to the assessment center, the suit states. A day afterthat,on Jan. 11, 2014, a doctor at the centerwrote a reportsaying

the bruises looked concerning, but too much time had passed for an examination to be useful in determining whether Coltin was the victim of child abuse, the lawsuit says. The DHS worker closed the case Feb. 25, 2014, saying that physical abuse of Coltin was "unfounded," according to a Critical Incident Response Team report. The boy died the following week after suffering a fractured skull and jaw. Oregon law requires DHS to write critical incident reportsin casesofchildren who have had DHS contact and died or been seriously injured because of abuse or neglect. The report in the Salsbury case notes shortcomings. The agency should have investigated the source of Coltin's Dec. 21, 2013, bruises, the reportsays,butaddsthatthe problem has been solved with more training for the worker or workers involved. The critical incident report reached an overall conclusion that there were no systemic problems at DHS in its handling of Coltin's case.

• Eastern's Talitha Fagen repeats as pole vault indoor national champion By Josh Benham The Observer

Tucked away in the Grande Ronde Valley, Eastern Oregon University has quietly become a powerhouse in the pole vault overthe lasttwo decades.First came Kristen Peterson with a women's indoor national championship in 1998. A pair of men followed, with Shawn Trimble winning an outdoor national title in 2003 and Robbie Haynie winning three national titles from 2011 to 2012. TalithaFagen added her name to that list in 2014 and when it's all said and done, the junior from Fruitland, Idaho, may leave

as big of a mark as anybody on the polevaulting record books at Eastern. Fagen added to her legacy at the NAIA Indoor Track and Field National Championships last weekend in Geneva, Ohio, with her second-straight national title in the women's pole vault. She cleared 12 feet, 8-'/4 inches for the championship, beating the runner-up by four inches, to win her second straight national championship. She set the new school record with the jump, breaking the previousrecord of12-6 '/4feetthat she set last year when she won the indoor national title. "It was really cool getting my second straight title, especially with all of my teammates there supporting me," Fagen said."The girls that vault ifrom other collegesl, they all ran up and hugged me afterwards. It's kind oflike a

little family." A couple of factors made the feat that much more impressive. First, Fagen was using a new pole and admitted that she wasn't as sharp as she normally is. "I had terrible form at nationals," Fagen said with a laugh. "It's really exciting, because I still PR'd, so I can get way better." What limited Fagen's practice with her new equipment was a leg injury suffered near the end of January. A tight muscle running into her hip flexor was causing her hips to come out of alignment, thus pulling on her abductor and gluteal muscles, and in particular, her hamstring. "It was myfirst meetin four weeks. For about three and a half weeks, I wasn't really able to work out," Fagen said."I was able to do core work and shoulder work to strengthen myself, and I See Fagen/Fbge 11A

La Grande boys golfhead coach Ron Evans is looking to the future. The Tigers will field five freshmen, two sophomores, and a senior, all of whom are out for the first time, to join returning senior Craig Wallace and sophomore Elias Siltenen on the links in what Evans called a rebuilding year. ''Wemight be tough down the road,"Evans said, adding the team could really be a contenderatthestatelevelin ayear ortwo. That doesn't mean the tenth-year coach is saying this year is a complete loss. Quite the opposite, in fact. "Actually, it's going to be a fun year because the freshmen and sophomores are very gungho, so it's going to be exciting," he explained. Several of the athletes who have joined the team this spring do not have a great amount of golf experience, butin the time on the course this year, they are alreadymaking strides. 'Three out of the five freshmen are really coming on," Evans said, noting the progress of newcomers Gabe Hanson, Nojah Chamberlain and Wyatt Page."They might be able to shoot some good scores by the end of the year. If we can get them in the 90s, that would be awesome. "In just the short time we've had out here, they'vereallyim proved,"headded. Wallace, who Evans expects to contend for a spot to state individually, is also stepping up as an athlete the younger players will be able to look to during matches. "He's really good at encouraging these young boys," Evans said."Golf is a mind game, and we have to get these young kids under control." Tyler Shaul, who is the other senior on the team, has experience under his belt in a noncompetitive format, and isalready shooting scores that have Evans excited.

Even with some major losses, Union head coach Jay Blackburn sees no reason why his girls track and field team won't be contending again at the 2A state championship meet. The Bobcats, with 78 team points, finished second to Kennedy andits83 pointsatlast May's state meet. Gone from that team are McKenzie Evans, who

won state titles in the 1,500- and 3,000-meterraces,and Katriel O'Reilly, who placed third in the 800 at state and ran on the 4-by-400-meter relay team that finished second. But with the returning firepower, expect the Bobcats to stay in title contention. "I think we've got a real strong girls team," Blackburn said. ''We've won districts three of the

last four years, and I don't plan on that changing. As far as talent goes, we have the most talented girls. We're a pretty rounded group with sprinting and jumping, and we have good vaulters.

One-third of monitoring sites in the Cascades and Sierra Nevada reported the lowest snowpack ever measured as of March 1, and some sites don't even have snow, unusual for this time of year.

OHA Baker chapter banquet set for April 4 BAKER CITY—The Baker chapter of the Oregon Hunters Association has scheduled its annual fundraising banquet and auction for Saturday, April 4 at the Baker Community Events Center, 2600 East St. in Baker City. Doors open at 4:30 p.m., with dinner at 6 p.m. and an auction and raffle starting at 7 p.m. The prime rib dinner will be catered by The Little Pig in Baker Clty. The deadline to reserve dinner ticket and raffle ticket packages is March 27. More information is available by calling 541-523-6626 or 541-403-0402.

The concept behind the Wildlife Area is elegant in its simplicity: Tempt the animals with tasty alfalfa, and put the food in the narrow zone between the mountains and the valleys. The strategy isn't perfect — elk and deer still bypass ODFWs free food at times and munch on hay meant for cattle. But in the main the Wildlife Area works as intended. And although statistics might suggest that in a mild winter such as the current version the feedsitesaresuperfluousMiguez estimates his crew doled out 500 tons of hay, about half the average outlay — in fact this winter illustrates the success of ODFW's concept, he said. Even though animals ate much less hay than usual, the number of animals that showed up at the feed sites was about the same as during harsh winters, Miguez said. That shows that even when deer and elk don't absolutely depend on ODFW for sustenance, the animalsarrive atthefeed

Newmagscouldhelg forestmanagersdeal with dugs By Dylan J. Darling WesCom News Service

Blending satellite images, human-drawn maps and on-the-ground inventories givesforestmanagers abetter handle on two of the most common insect outbreaks around the West, according to recent research released by Oregon State University. The new method results in detailed maps showing where the mountain pine beetle and western spruce budworm have been and where they are spreading, said Robert Kennedy, an assistant professor in OSU's College of Earth, Ocean and Atmospheric Sciences. "Knowing where things are happening allows people to do management better," Kennedy said. Sincethe late 1940s,forest managers have relied upon aerial surveys, during which people would draw maps of insect outbreaks from the air, to determine where

Adead mountain pine beetle on ponderosa pine bark. the insects were having an impact. These maps were an estimate of the outbreaks, and Kennedy said adding satellite images, old and new, and data gathered in the

w oodsgiveaclearerpicture of an outbreak. Both insects experience cyclical outbreaks, which, year to year, can affect millions of acres of forest.

The beetle and the budworm havea taste for different trees. The mountain pine beetle mainly attacks lodgepole and ponderosa pines, while the western

sprucebudworm defol iates,or takesthe needlesofEspruce, Douglas-fir and true firs. "Mortality from bark beetles is only the beginning oflong-term change," Helen Maffei, a pathologist with the Deschutes National Forest in Bend, said in a news release about the research."Dead treesfalland decay,and forest regrowth begins and continues over many decades. This new technique can help us understand not only how insect outbreaks are initiated and spread but also address ...'What comes next?' It can help us better understand the process of recovery." The last big mountafn pine beetle outbreaks in the Northwest were in the 1980s and 2000s, said Garrett Meigs, whose graduate studies focused on the new mapping method while he was at OSU. Meigs is now a post-doct oralresearcher at the University of Vermont. The last big spruce budworm

outbreaks in the eastern Cascades were in the 1980s and early 1990s. Dual outbreaks of the insects hit Santiam Pass decades ago, leaving large swathesofdead trees,he said. The new mappingmethod — which Kennedy and Meigs detailed earlier this month in an arti clefor ForestEcology and Management— would not only allow forest managersto betterunderstand the extent of past outbreaks but also anticipate future outbreaks. "Until this point, aerial surveys have been the go-to," he said. Building on a partnership between OSU and Google, Kennedy is working with the company to possibly make satellite data about the insects available on Google Earth Engine, a cloud computing platform for processing images captured by satellites and data collected on Earth.

I recommend carrying the largest caliber that you can handle. But Hornady has some good home defense loads that make smaller calibers more effective than some of the larger ones were in the past. Wow! The girls were doing some good shooting. Cami hit the same holes a few times with my 1911. Theoretically for a little girl you'd probably recommend a .38-caliber but a lot of the girls liked the 1911. I always recommend that women carry a revolver just because they are so dependable. I still carry one when I'm in the mountains due to the fact that you might flip out of a canoe/raft/boat, get rained/snowed on and are in a lot of dust.

When natural food is available, Miguez said, the animals prefer it over ODFWs hay. "I don't think we ever had more than a foot of snow on the ground at any of the feedsites,"he said. Second,temperatures were relatively mild, and Miguez said animals don't need nearly as much food — as much as one-third less— ascompared to prolongedperiods offiigid weather.

This made me feel good.Iwa sworried because I'm running all over right now and if Ihelpgetpeoplestarted shooting I would feel responsible to help train them to be safe, how to shoot, what gun to buy, etc. It turns out that they had been trying to come up with a plan to get young women involved in

The placid winter will save ODFW thousands of dollars, since the agency w on't have to buy asmuch hay before next winter, Miguez said. But the biggest beneficiaries, he said, are the animals. During hard winters, hundreds of animals, in particular deer, can die. The youngest and oldest are more vulunerable. But this year most of the babies should enter spring unscathed. "Our fawn and calf survival will be really good," Miguez said.

hiker in trouble on or near thetrailcould expectdozens of people to be in the vicinity, improving the likelihood of finding help, but that's not the case in winter. Lichter and Forry traveled 1,700 miles from Snoqualmie Pass in Washington to Walker Pass in California without seeing anyone along the trail. Their only human contact was when they left the trail for resupply or went through towns. They were almost derailed before Christmas when they bothsuffered frostbite on their feet near Bend, Oregon. At another point they were forcedto swim across swollen Grider Creek in the Klamath National Forest early one morning in December after discovering a bridge they had planned to use was washed out. The intellectual challenge beganlong beforetheduo set foot on the trail. They had discussedthe ideafor about five years, Lichter said, but it took more than talk to make it a reality. A tuneup trip on skis through the Sierra Nevada a couple seasons ago helped tojump-startthe process of deciding what gear they would need and how it might perform on the trek. They alsospent a lotoftim estudying resupply options because many of the standard summ ertimeaccesspointsare closed in the winter. The biggest deviation from the plan came shortly

beforethe trip started.That's when they decided to scrap the original idea of going south-to-north and instead go north-to-south. "This seemed like a smart thing to do so we could get through Washington before they built up a lot of snowpack and higher avalanche risk and then get into the Sierras, an area that we are most familiar with, in the heart of the winter," Lichter sald. Lichter and Forry needed more than their outdoors skills to complete the trek. They also needed to stay sane.

SEATTLE — On New Year's Eve, singer Kim Archer was scheduled to perform at a party. The problem was she had an asthma attack early in the day and didn't have any medicine. She searched the Internet forquick help andfound Franciscan Urgent Virtual Care. "I dialed the number and got a person on the phone who was very helpful," Archer said.'They told me we could either connect by Skype or telephone in the next 30 to 40 minutes. About 20 minutes later I got a call, so the wait was hardly anything." Archer says the physician took the time to"really get to know my situation."After 20 minutes, the physician wrote a prescription, which was phoned in to a pharmacy. By 9 that night, she was on the stage."And the show was great," she said. Just as important, Archer says, the virtual visit cost

AWARENESS Continued from Page6C room was 'the cabin,"'Tucker Van Winkle said. "So our family started using the same words too (when speaking to him), and that way we understood each other." Robert has settled into his "job" and "cabin" well, with occasional visits back to his house in Joseph. But those visits are shortened by his anxieties, and he tells his family, "I've been on vacation from myjob too long. I have to get back to my job." So they take him back to Wildflower Lodge where he recognizes his "cabin" by the shadow box of personal photos hung outside his room door — all familiar and old memories that he still retains in his mind. Van Winkle explained that his father enjoys contentment now, but it came afterthe family struggledfor 4-V2years, trying to help him with daily activities

Winkle said."So we put a (Iargel pictureofarealwooden door on theglass and that helped a little." Robert also had trouble using the TV remote control. He became fiustrated and upset — too many buttons for him to understand. The family tried to color code it, but that was still too confusing. Eventually they found a remote with five buttons and that worked. He also could not distinguish between the phone and the TV remote control, so when the phone rang, he sometimes picked up the remote. Since he was not able to help himself, the family had to find a solution. ''We fixed this problem by getting him an old, rotary-style telephone," Van Winkle said.'This looked like the phone he remembered."

Van Winkle said that researchers have not yet discovered the cause of Alzheimer's, but they have noted a number of commonalities among Alzheimer's patients. 'They include brain trauma, a family historyofAlzheimer's,severedepression,alcoholism, severenight terrors and cholesterol-lowering medications," Van Winkle said."My father had head trauma when he hit those three trees, and he was on cholesterol medication for over five years. Plus, we have a family history of Alzheimer's." Struggling to find solutions to daily life with Alzheimer's can be exhausting, but the game changer for the Van Winkle family came when they were assigned a caseworker through the Department of Human Services.

The good fats in salmon reduce inflammation, keep blood flowing and lower triglycerides. Other heart healthy fish are sardines, barramundi and tuna. Two servingsa week isa good start. 2. Ground flax seeds. Rich in fiber and vegetarian Omega-3 that is easily added to a variety of foods like soups and salads. Try them in cereal, yogurt and protein smoothies. Helps reduce blood cholesterol. 3. Nuts. Walnuts are loaded with vitamin E and Omega-3 fatty acids and are a deli cious sourceform agnesium. These nuts help reduce cholesterol. The American Heart Association recommends eating four servings of unsalted, oil-free nuts a week as part of a balanced diet. Note: These are high in calories. Moderation is key. 4. Beans and legumes. Indude red kidneybeans and black beans, chickpeas and lentils. These are all richin magnesium, vitamin B complex and are a good source of soluble fiber, whichreduces cholesterol. These also add folate and magnesium to the diet. Soyis a lean vegetarian pmtein that may lower cholesteml. Edamame is loaded with fiber that keeps cholesteml down. 5. Berries. Berries in general are good, but especially blueberries, which are a goodsourceofellagicacid,an antioxidant that protects blood vessels, lowers blood pressure and reduces LDL. Oranges are rich in flavonoids, vitamin C, potassium, folic and fiber.

Orangesalsohelp lowerblood pressure and protect blood vessels. (Eat the whole fiuit, don't just drink the juice or you miss out on the heart-healthy fiber.) Other good sources are cantaloupe and papaya. 6. Red wine. The antioxidants like catechim and resveratrol inml wine appear to increase HDL andreduce LDL. Limit to one four-ounce glass ofwine a day. (Ifyou'ie a teetotaler,you can get these benefits in fiuits and vegetables.) 7. Oatmeal has Omega-3 fatty acids and is also rich in soluble fiber, magnesium, potassium and niacin. Oatmeal helps to lower LDL. Try steel cut oats for the highest fiber. 8.Avocado. Packed with healthy monounsaturated fat, which lowers LDL. They promotetheabsorption ofcarotenoids thatimprove heart health. Replacing saturated fat with unsaturated fat sources may improve LDL numbers. An example would be to use vegetable oil (unsaturatedl instead ofbutter (saturatedl. 9. Tea 41ack or green) is rich in flavonoids, which is an antioxidant that protects cells from damaging free radicals. 10. Dark chocolate. The high flavanol content has a bloodthinnmg effectthatthe heart loves. A compound in dark chocolate called epicatechin boosts nitric oxide, which dilates blood vessels and lowers blood pressure. Pick carefully at the candy counter. The dark chocolate has to be 70 percent pure cocoa or higher to be beneficial. The recommended portion is two small pieces a day. Above all, changes in diet must become a lifestyle modification, not just a temporary fix to help you squeeze into your clothes for a 30th high school reunion or a wedding.

Elliott Royce, 94, demonstrates how to fall to a group of seniors at the Sabes Jewish Community Center in St. Louis Park, Minnesota.

TRICKS Continued ~om Page6C Royce has taken"seven real falls and has never gotten hurt," he said."Sure, I got bruised, and I ended up with some aches and pains, but I didn't get any broken bones." That's partly because he takespractice fallsevery day so that he'll react instinctively should he lose his balance. "Once you start to fall, you don't have time to think about what to do," he said. 'You're going to have about one second to figure it out, so you better have some plans." Lest there be any doubt, Royce is not your typical 95-year-old."Too many seniors have given up," he chides. Not him. For starters, he takes an hourlong trampoline class three times a week. "He came in here 3-V2 years ago and said his goal was to still be on the trampoline when he turns 100," said Pat Henderson, his coach and the owner of Minnesota Twisters in Edina, Minn., where the previous oldest client was 85."I think he's going to make it." Royce thinks he's going to make it, too. "I've always been an active person," said Royce, who ran a health and beauty wholesale business until he retired in his mid-70s."I'm not a couch potato."

Daughter Cindy Royce confirmed that assessment. The family has long gotten used to him announcing his next conquest. "It's always something," she said."He started playing the viola da gamba — the baroque cello. And then he decided that he wanted to learn how to juggle. He even entered a race where you had to go a mile while juggling." Her father chimed in with a laugh:"I was the last one to finish, but I won my age division — because I was the only one in it." Even while poking fun at himself, he exudes a can-do attitude. "Show them how you can jump rope," Henderson urged, tossing Royce a rope while he was bouncing on a trampoline. Without a second's hesitation, he nonchalantly obliged. "He likes a challenge," said Cindy Royce, who is no slouch herself. In her late 50s, she takes the trampoline lessons with her dad. In addition to being good exercise, the trampoline training dovetails nicely with his safe-falling program."It works his core muscles and sharpens his body awareness and control," Henderson said. Not to mention honing his sense ofbalance: "If you can learn to walk on an unsteady surface like a trampoline, you can walk on anything," Royce said.

ou can't fix your health until you fix your diet. So says Sheah Rarback, a registered dietitian on the faculty of the Miller School of Medicine at the University of Miami and a Miami Herald columnist. The fuel you put into your body, like that in your car, will determine how well you run. The heart is critically essential to the body's function as it controls the circulation of blood. When you clog its pathways with poor food choices, you gum up the works, and thiscan lead to ahostof health problems, including death by heart attack. So what is there to do? 'There is not one single food that will help you lower or raise your cholesterol. Variety is the key. The less processed thefood,thebetter,"said Sonia Angel, registered dietitian and coordinator oftheDiabetes and Nutrition Center at Memorial Regional Hospital.

He's turned his family's experience with Alzheimer's into a project, one he'll take to a state competition on April 16 asa m ember of Family, Career and Community Leaders of America. Marla Dotson of Joseph Charter School has been his project adviser. For Van Winkle, it's personal but at the same time, he knows he's not alone because every 67 seconds

there's another new case of Alzheimer's diagnosedanother family struggling and other children like him experiencing anticipatory grieving and loss. Facing serious family issues with an aged father, Van Winkle has had to grow up fast, putting normal childhood on fastforward, and his classmates have noticed. "Alzheimer's is the sixth leading cause of death," he

said, "and 5 million people in the United States have Alzheimer's now." Van Winkle's story is an ongoing journey of compassion and problem solving as he and his mother, Shellea,and hisolder brother, Deni, continue to search for innovative ways to stay connected intellectually to their loved one, who was diagnosed with Alzheimer's five years ago.
