Bend hopes online forum will boost input from residents By Hillary Borrud The Bulletin
The city of Bend hopes more residents will log on and weigh in on city issues when a new online forum launches in the next few months. “In Bend, we think there’s a large portion of the community that wants to engage with us but has other things going on,” said city spokesman Justin Finestone, who is heading up the project. “After they put the kids to bed, maybe they can go online and connect with us that way.” The new website will put Bend in the company of cities such as Austin, Texas, which encourages residents to “post your great ideas,” “vote on what you like,” and “join the discussion” on speakupaustin.org. The city of Bend has not settled on a domain name for its web forum, which will be separate from the existing city website. City Manager Eric King said the website will provide valuable feedback from citizens, not “someone ranting on a blog.” “If we put some structure to it, it could actually inform some decision-making at the city,” King said.

High-tech ID theft rings test savvy of police
Final version of Bowman Dam bill highlights collaboration By Andrew Clevenger The Bulletin
WASHINGTON — When Rep. Greg Walden, R-Hood River, introduced legislation last year that would authorize the release of more water from behind Bowman Dam, the bill was cheered by Prineville offiIN D.C. cials, who desperately wanted the water for economic development. But it received a less enthusiastic reception from conservation groups, who were disappointed that Walden’s bill didn’t include more considerations for the health of fish and other wildlife downstream in the Crooked River and adjacent waterways. Last week, Sens. Jeff Merkley and Ron Wyden, both D-Ore., announced a new agreement, which broadened the coalition of stakeholders who approve the deal. The bill, which Merkley introduced in the Senate, incorporates the fundamental terms of Walden’s legislation, authorizing the release of 5,100 acre-feet of water from the reservoir to offset the water needed by the city.

It’s official: July was hottest month ever
By David Chanen Star Tribune (Minneapolis)
By Brian K. Sullivan
MINNEAPOLIS — Thousands of unsuspecting victims are falling prey to increasingly sophisticated identity theft operations that cost banks and retail stores millions and test the technical savvy of law enforcement. Two weeks ago, six more people pleaded guilty or were sentenced to prison in the Twin Cities for their roles in two of the largest identity theft rings in the United States. Later this month, Julian Okeayainneh, one of the ring’s kingpins, is scheduled to be sentenced to life in prison, the longest punishment handed down for an identity theft case. Authorities say those cases reflect a growing confidence among some criminals to go beyond stealing a credit card out of a mailbox. Instead, they’re recruiting teams of people to steal data, work it through ever-cautious financial institutions and businesses and hide the profits from police. See Theft / A6

July was the hottest month in the lower 48 states in 117 years of record-keeping, capping the hottest 12 months ever in the contiguous United States, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said. The average temperature in the 48 states during July was 77.6 degrees Fahrenheit (25.3 Celsius), or 3.3 degrees above normal, the NOAA said Wednesday. The old record was set in July 1936, said John Ewald, a spokesman for the agency. From August 2011 to July, the average temperature in the contiguous U.S. was 56.1 degrees. That broke the previous record set July 2011 to June by 0.07 degrees, according to the NOAA. The first seven months of 2012 have also been the warmest start for any year since record-keeping began in 1895. See Heat / A8

Leakeys say discovery confirms 2 additional pre-human species By Seth Borenstein The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Our family tree may have sprouted some long-lost branches going back nearly 2 million years. A famous paleontology family has found fossils that they think confirm their theory that there are two additional pre-human species besides the one that eventually led to modern humans. A team led by Meave Leakey, daughter-in-law of famed scientist Louis Leakey, found facial bones from one creature and jawbones from two others in Kenya. That led the researchers to conclude that man’s early ancestor had plenty of human-like company from other species. These wouldn’t be Homo erectus, believed to be our direct ancestor. They would be more like very distant cousins, who when you go back even longer in time, shared an ancient common ancestor, one scientist said. But other experts in human evolution aren’t convinced by what they say is a leap to large conclusions based on limited evidence. It’s the continuation of a long-running squabble in anthropology about the earliest members of our own genus, or class, called Homo — an increasingly messy family history. And much of it stems from a controversial discovery that the Leakeys made 40 years ago. In their new findings, the Leakey team says that none of their newest fossil discoveries match erectus, so they had to be from another flat-faced relatively large species with big teeth. The new specimens have “a really distinct profile” and thus they are “something very different,” said Meave Leakey, describing the study published online Wednesday in Nature. What these new bones did match was an old fossil that Meave and her husband Richard helped find in 1972 that was baffling. That skull, called 1470, just didn’t fit with Homo erectus, the Leakeys contended. They said it was too flatfaced with a non-jutting jaw. They initially said it was well more than 2.5 million years old in a dating mistake that was later seized upon by creationists as evidence against evolution because it indicated

IN HISTORY
Fred Spoor / National Geographic / The Associated Press
This undated handout photo provided shows Meave Leakey carefully excavating the new face KNM-ER 62000 near Koobi Fora in northern Kenya. A famous family of paleontologists says newly found fossils confirm their controversial theory that the human family tree may have sprouted some long-lost branches going back nearly 2 million years.
how scientists can make dating mistakes. It turned out to be 2 million years old. For the past 40 years, the scientific question has been whether 1470 was a freak mutation of erectus or something new. For many years, the Leakeys have maintained that the male skull known as 1470 showed that there were more than one species of ancient hominids, but other scientists said it wasn’t enough proof. The Leakeys’ new discoveries are more evidence that this earlier “enigmatic face” was a separate species, said study co-author Fred Spoor of the Max Planck Institute in Germany. The new bones were found between 2007 and 2009 about six miles away from the old site near the fossil-rich Lake Turkana region, Leakey said. So that would make two species — erectus and the one represented by 1470. But it’s not that simple. The Leakey scientific team contends that other fossils of old hominids — not those cited in their new study — don’t seem to match either erectus or 1470. They argue that the other fossils seem to have smaller heads and not just because they are female. For that reason, the Leakeys believe there were three living
Homo species between 1.8 million and 2 million years ago. They would be Homo erectus, the 1470 species, and a third branch. “Anyway you cut it there are three species,” study co-author Susan Anton, an anthropologist at New York University. “One of them is named erectus and that ultimately in our opinion is going to lead to us.” Both of the species that Meave Leakey said existed back then went extinct more than a million years ago in evolutionary dead-ends. “Human evolution is clearly not the straight line that it once was,” Spoor said. The three different species could have been living at the same time at the same place, but probably didn’t interact much, he said. Still, he said, East Africa nearly 2 million years ago “was quite a crowded place.” And making matters somewhat more confusing, the Leakeys and Spoor refused to give names to the two nonerectus species or attach them to some of the other Homo species names that are in scientific literature but still disputed. That’s because of confusion about what species belongs where, Anton said. Two likely possibilities are Homo rudolfensis — which
is where 1470 and its kin seem to belong — and Homo habilis, where the other nonerectus belong, Anton said. The team said the new fossils mean scientists can reclassify those categorized as non-erectus species and confirm the earlier but disputed Leakey claim. But Tim White, a prominent evolutionary biologist at the University of California Berkeley, just isn’t buying this new species idea, nor is Milford Wolpoff, a longtime professor of anthropology at the University of Michigan. They said the Leakeys are making too big a jump from too little evidence. White said it’s similar to someone looking at the jaw of a female gymnast in the Olympics, the jaw of a male shot-putter, ignoring the faces in the crowd and deciding the shot-putter and gymnast have to be a different species. Eric Delson, a paleoanthropology professor at Lehman College in New York, said he buys the Leakeys’ study, but added: “There’s no question that it’s not definite.” He said it won’t convince doubters until fossils of both sexes of both non- erectus species are found. “It’s a messy time period,” Delson said.

Toxic threat brings hard times to Easy Street By Sammy Fretwell McClatchy Newspapers (MCT)
COLUMBIA, S.C. — Drenching rains almost always meant one thing on Easy Street: The road became a watery playground for neighborhood children. For decades, the dirt street flooded so badly it became a creek of knee-deep water. Soon after the rain subsided, kids would pour out of homes in the Edisto Court community to splash in the muddy stream or lie in the cool waters. Anthony Belton, 50, was one of them. But now he wonders if the water he played in as a child was polluted with toxic lead and arsenic that settled in the dirt along Easy Street before he was born. Last month — generations after people began living on Easy Street — toxins powerful enough to cause learning disabilities in children and cancer in adults were discovered in yards along the small, shaded lane off Rosewood Drive. South Carolina officials think the pollution may have existed for decades. The news stunned community residents, including Belton, who want answers about the new-found contamination. Should they move out? Should they see a doctor?

Kenneth Hurey has started the process to buy his home in Columbia, S.C., but fears he may have to move due to contamination in the soil.
Should they sue somebody? “How safe are we?” asked Belton, a neighborhood handyman whose mother raised eight children on Easy Street. “Even now, I do a lot of yard work. If it is in the ground, it’s got to be in the grass, too. What is going to happen to us? We need to know something.” Belton’s older sister, Joyce, is upset about the contamination that state regulators say came from an industrial corridor a block away. “I just can’t understand how
it has come to this,” she said. “My grandchildren play in the neighborhood. Somebody needs to come in and clean this up. DHEC needs to find out how much more pollution is in the neighborhood. This is a big concern.” The South Carolina DepartSelf Referrals Welcome

ment of Health and Environmental Control and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency say they are working to better understand the problem and its threat to the community, which DHEC director Catherine Templeton has called “a big deal.” EPA officials arrived on the scene Friday, when they began sampling the air and soil. Air samples will determine whether lead and arsenic are being stirred into the air by heavy trucking in the industrial corridor next door to Easy Street. Soil samples, taken using X-ray equipment and a large drill, will give a more comprehensive result on how significant the ground pollution is and what the threat is to individual residents.

T S SIKH SHOOTING
Invader killed self, FBI says By Michael Laris The Washington Post
Wade Michael Page, the gunman who killed six people at a Sikh temple outside Milwaukee on Sunday, committed suicide by shooting himself in the head after he was wounded in the stomach by police gunfire, the FBI disclosed Wednesday. Teresa Carlson, special agent in charge of the FBI’s Milwaukee office, told reporters that a police officer shot Page in the stomach, “thereby neutralizing the threat,” in the park-
ing lot outside the Sikh temple after Page had fatally shot six worshipers and Page wounded three other people, including the first police officer who arrived on the scene. “Subsequent to that wound, it appears that Page died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head,” Carlson said in a news conference in Milwaukee. She indicated that the suicide, disclosed for the first time Wednesday, was confirmed by
security video footage of the scene. She said of the second police officer’s shot that hit Page in the stomach, “I’ve seen the video, and it was an amazing shot. Thank goodness.” Authorities previously said that Page was killed by police after he shot the first responder, fired at two police cars and failed to obey commands to put down his weapon, identified as a 9mm handgun. Carlson said the motive behind the temple shootings remains unknown and that authorities are continuing to
interview people who knew Page. The 40-year-old Army veteran was well known to anti-hate watchdog groups as someone affiliated with white supremacism and deeply involved in the “white power” music scene. Carlson also said that authorities have located and interviewed a man who was identified as a “person of interest” after the shooting. Police said Page acted alone, but they distributed a photo of the man, saying they wanted to identify and question him.

Manila markets reopen after flood MANILA, Philippines — Philippine financial markets and offices reopened Wednesday even as a fifth of the Manila region remained under water after the worst flood in three years. The weather bureau dropped its rainfall warning to yellow, the lowest in its three-step color-coded system that moves up to green and red. The capital may see rainfall of up to 15 millimeters (0.6 inches) in an hour, it said on its website. That compares with as much as 40 millimeters Tuesday. Tuesday’s deluge killed at least 15 people on the main Philippine island of Luzon and forced 130,000 to flee their homes, according to police and disaster officials. Flooding crippled transport links in the capital, forcing the closure of schools and offices. The downpour was enhanced by the effect of Tropical Storm Haikui lashing China, the weather bureau said.
Taliban vow to kill march organizer SHAWAL, Pakistan — The Taliban have threatened to kill a Pakistani cricket star turned politician if he holds a planned march to their tribal stronghold along the Afghan border to protest U.S. drone attacks. Although the Pakistani Taliban also oppose the strikes, which have killed many of their fighters, spokesman Ahsanullah Ahsan said they would target Imran Khan because he calls himself a “liberal” — a term they associate with a lack of religious belief. He also warned they would attack anyone who participates in upcoming elections. “If he comes, our suicide bombers will target him,” Ahsan told The Associated Press in an interview Monday in the militant group’s stronghold of South Waziristan. “We will kill him.”
Trial starts for wife of Chinese politician HEFEI, China — The closely orchestrated murder trial of the wife of disgraced Chinese politician Bo Xilai has begun.

The two are accused of poisoning British businessman Neil Heywood in November in the southwestern mega-city of Chongqing, where Bo was party chief until his ouster this spring. The scandal has drawn attention to political infighting and comes at a time when the government is preparing for a once-adecade political transition that will install a new generation of leaders.

Sinai killings spark purge of Egypt’s security officials By Kareem Fahim New York Times News Service
EL ARISH, Egypt — President Mohammed Morsi fired his intelligence chief and other top security officials Wednesday, in a sweeping response by his new government to the killings of 16 soldiers in the Sinai Peninsula. The far-reaching purge affected officials accused of lapses that contributed to the deaths of the soldiers, and others who likely played no role but were seen as too closely tied to remnants of Egypt’s old order. Morsi announced he would replace the head of the military police, several interior ministry officials and the head of the presidential guard. He also fired the governor of North Sinai, distancing himself, at least symbolically, from the government’s hated legacy in the region, remembered as much for its brutality as its neglect. The moves represented Mor-
si’s latest attempt to reclaim authority from the generals who took power after the fall of President Hosni Mubarak. At the same time, the shakeup reflected the outcome of what analysts said was likely a carefully brokered deal, by a president and a military willing to make concessions to blunt their critics after the soldiers’ deaths. Early Wednesday, the military was eager to demonstrate how seriously it was prepared to deal with the attack on its soldiers, sending troops and armored carriers through towns and villages in Sinai in a hunt for the perpetrators. Helicopters fired repeatedly, in the first airstrikes by Egypt’s military in the region in decades, although it was unclear to residents what, if anything, the strikes had hit. Witnesses in the village of Al-Touma said that heavy clashes during the night lasted for hours. The intelligence chief, Mu-
rad Muwafi, was the most high-profile official who lost his job, forced into early retirement as Egypt’s intelligence agencies were criticized for missing or ignoring warnings about the attack. Analysts said that it might have been relatively easy for Morsi to persuade the military to agree to Muwafi’s firing. Many analysts think that the military saw Muwafi, like his predecessor, Omar Suleiman, as a rival rather than an ally, and an obstruction to their own intelligence-gathering efforts. “They were never in favor of general intelligence,” said Omar Ashour, a visiting scholar at the Brookings Doha Center. Morsi also seemed eager to use the reshuffle to dampen some criticism of his Cabinet, which was seated last week, for its lack of inclusiveness and imagination, relying as it did on longtime state employees.
Rebels pull back from parts of Aleppo as government forces launch assault By Damien Cave and Dalal Mawad New York Times News Service
BEIRUT — Rebel fighters in Aleppo, Syria’s largest city, said Wednesday that government forces had launched a ground assault, forcing them to pull back from parts of the city because their ammunition was running low, as new disputes arose around the contentious issue of foreign military support for President Bashar Assad, and for the opposition. In Aleppo, several rebel commanders said shelling and bomb attacks early Wednesday morning had reached new levels of intensity. Both the opposition and Syrian state television said the Syrian military had tried to reclaim the strategic neighborhood of Salaheddine, where much of the fighting has been concentrated. A rebel commander identified as Abu Mohammed, chief of the insurgent Shahbaa Brigade in
Aleppo, said in a telephone interview that the fight with loyalist soldiers would apparently be a long battle because of an ammunition shortage. The developments coincided with several conflicting reports involving the role of other countries in Syria’s conflict. In Jordan, the state news agency reported that Syria’s prime minister, Riad Farid Hijab, completed his widely reported defection by arriving in Jordan early Wednesday morning — not Monday, as Jordanian officials and Syrian rebels and activists had all initially reported. Jordanian officials did not respond to requests for comment on the discrepancy. There were also new, disputed accounts regarding the identity of dozens of Iranian hostages taken prisoner in Syria over the weekend and an equally contentious claim by the insurgents that they had killed a senior Russian general
acting as a military adviser to government forces around the capital, Damascus. A rebel group calling itself the Hawks Special Operations Battalion said in a video posted on YouTube that it had “eliminated” Gen. Vladimir Petrovich Kochyev. The video showed what the rebels said was a copy of an identity card issued by the Russian military. There was no independent corroboration of the claim, which was denied strenuously in Moscow by Russian media reports saying the general had been in Syria but was currently on vacation outside Moscow. Iran’s official Islamic Republic News Agency said Wednesday that Iran’s foreign minister, Ali Akbar Salehi, flying back from Turkey, had told Iranian reporters that “some” of the Iranian hostages in Syria seized last weekend were “retired” members of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps.
Forest Service gets more aggressive on small fires By Patrick Condon The Associated Press
MINNEAPOLIS — The U.S. Forest Service has directed supervisors on federal forest lands to temporarily abandon its policy of letting small fires keep burning in isolated areas, with rampant forest fires in the country’s western half putting a strain on firefighting resources and concerns over the possibility of more fires in droughtstricken areas. “We’re concerned about how dry it is,” said Joe Walsh, spokesman for the U.S. Forest Service in Washington. “It was this concern, and this comes down from our chief, that we need to get in and suppress fires early and not let them get ahead of us.” For years, the policy has been that supervisors on Forest Service land can opt to let fires burn if they start naturally, usually by lightning strikes, and are not a threat to nearby homes or other assets. Scientists view fires as a natural part of forest regeneration, making room for new growth and also diminishing future threat of larger fires by clearing areas of fuel sources. But that decision can go wrong. That’s what happened last August in Minnesota’s Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, where a fire that burned slowly at first under the supervision of Superior National Forest managers gained unexpected strength thanks to a blast of hot, windy weather in early September. The Pagami Creek fire
quickly grew out of control, burning about 145 square miles and costing $23 million to fight. It took another month to extinguish, with help from nearly 1,000 firefighters across the country. Brenda Halter, supervisor of Superior National Forest, said her staff has already put out a handful of small fires in isolated areas that under normal circumstances probably would have been allowed to burn. Last year, the Forest Service spent a record $48 million for recovery work alone on burned areas. By the end of July, the agency had already spent $28 million on recovery and is on track for another possible record. The number of fires and total acres burned this year in the West is within range of the last decade’s average, but the fires have been bigger and have burned with more severity. They have also intruded into areas where the potential impact is greater. Colorado has had its worst fire season in a decade, and New Mexico recorded its largest and most destructive wildfires in May, June and July. Major fires have also burned in southern California, Oklahoma, Idaho, Washington, Wyoming and Utah. Walsh said the Forest Service’s firefighting resources are still in decent shape. “We’re not in crisis mode,” he said. But he added that trying to prevent strained resources through the summer and into early fall is “just the smart and prudent thing to do.”
UN: Afghan casualty drop not a trend toward peace By Jon Stephenson McClatchy Newspapers
KABUL — The number of civilians killed or wounded by violence in Afghanistan dropped 15 percent in the first six months of the year compared with the same period in 2011, the United Nations reported Wednesday. But U.N. officials cautioned that the decrease should not be seen as a sign that Afghanistan was becoming less violent. “They do not reflect a move towards a peaceful society,” Nicholas Haysom, the deputy U.N. special representative in Afghanistan, said of the numbers. “On the contrary, the figures we are releasing today reflect an armed conflict that is exacting a toll on civilians and civilian lives similar to the levels of 2009 and 2010.” Another official called the decrease “a very hollow trend,” noting that the U.S.-led coalition here had recorded more enemy attacks in June than in any other month since it began keeping statistics. “Since so many of these attacks are impacting civilians disproportionately, you have to worry that this trend is continuing, and more attacks are simply going to mean more civilian casualties,” said James Rodehaver, acting chief of the U.N. human rights unit in Afghanistan.
70 Years of Hearing Excellence
As with previous reports, the U.N. attributed the vast majority of civilian casualties — in this report, 80 percent — to Taliban actions. The number of civilians killed and wounded in the 11year-old war is one measure of the progress the International Security Assistance Force, as the U.S.-led coalition is known, is making toward pacifying the country. U.S. troops are scheduled to withdraw from the country by the end of 2014, and a key question is whether the government of Afghan President Hamid Karzai will be able to continue to combat Taliban forces that operate widely across the nation. The report by the United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan documented 1,145 civilians killed and 1,954 injured in the conflict between Jan. 1 and June 30. “Anti-government elements” — shorthand for the Taliban and other insurgent groups — were responsible for 882 civilian deaths and for injuring 1,593, the report said. “Progovernment forces” — shorthand for U.S.-led coalition troops and Afghan government security forces — were responsible for 10 percent of overall casualties.

Obama: Romney would push women’s health care back to the 1950s By Julie Pace The Associated Press
Carlos Javier Ortiz / The Washington Post
A worker processes a roll of steel inside the ArcelorMittal steel mill in Cleveland. ArcelorMittal is the world’s leading integrated steel and mining company. Despite declining unemployment in the state, polls show that many Ohio voters remain pessimistic about the economy.
Ohio economy improves, but few seem to feel it By Michael A. Fletcher The Washington Post
CLEVELAND — Ohio’s unemployment rate has plummeted over the past three years and is now far below the national average, which might normally be cause for celebration. But battered by long years of hard times, many voters in this state view the improvement as little more than a mirage: More than two out of three say the economy is either worse or the same as it was a year ago, according to a recent poll. “Maybe there has been a leveling off,” said Daryl Johnson, 40, who has been in and out of temporary work since leaving his job at a now-defunct auto parts plant in 2005. “But I wouldn’t call it an improvement.” Ohio is illustrative of the downside of a recovery that many people say they do not feel. There are some new jobs but, as the economy shifts, they do not always match workers’ experiences. Here, as in other manufacturing states, those changes may mean a permanent deflation of incomes and expectations. The skepticism has not stopped President Barack Obama and Republican presidential challenger Mitt Romney from rushing in to take credit for the upswing. The candidates are offering sharply conflicting reasons for the improving economy, further confounding voters. Obama touts government action to save the auto industry as crucial to the recovery. Romney points to the smallgovernment philosophy of GOP Gov. John Kasich for fueling it. The explanation Ohioans end up believing could go a long way toward deciding the November election in this most pivotal of political battlegrounds, where voters have backed the winner in the past 10 presidential contests. Complicating the equation for both candidates is that many voters here remain bruised by years of economic hardship, even as Ohio’s jobless rate has dropped from 10.6 percent in the second half of 2009 to 7.2 percent in June. So the burning question for many voters is less who should receive credit for the improving economy than whether the improving economy is affecting their lives. “I just filter out all of the campaign noise. I figure things are going to be what they are going to be, regardless of who’s in there,” said Johnson, who recently completed 38 weeks of training to be a pharmacy technician. “These days, job security is a perk. You might get it, but then again you might not.” In repeated campaign visits to Ohio, Obama has said that the auto bailout saved much of the domestic car industry — which employs about 150,000 workers in the state — while bolstering the state’s manufacturing core. Romney, meanwhile, has walked a tightrope. He has said that Ohio’s economic growth would be more ro-
DENVER — Seeking to rally a crucial constituency, President Barack Obama on Wednesday warned women in swing-state Colorado that Republicans would seek to strip away health care benefits for them and cut funding for contraceptive services. In a passionate pitch for his health care overhaul, Obama sought to draw a stark contrast with presumptive GOP nominee Mitt Romney, saying his rival intended to take his health care law and “kill it dead” on the first day of his presidency and “get rid” of Planned Parenthood. “They want to take us back to the policies more suited to the 1950s than the 21st century,” Obama said, arguing that the decisions affecting a woman’s health are “not up to politicians, they’re not up to insurance companies, they’re up to you.” The rally — it was the first of four events Obama planned for a two-day trip through the state — was geared specifically to women, who were heavily represented in the 4,000-person crowd. Both Obama and Romney see women as a critical part of their efforts to win Colorado, where the presidential race is tight three months from Election Day. The Romney campaign dismissed Obama’s pitch to women as a distraction from the sluggish economy. “No false, recycled attacks can distract from the fact that President Obama’s four years in office haven’t been kind to women,” said Amanda Henneberg, a Romney campaign spokeswoman. A new Quinnipiac University poll shows Obama and Romney tied among voters in Colorado households earning between $30,000 and $50,000 per year — an
important target. Obama leads among voters with lower incomes while Romney is favored by those making more. Obama said women’s issues resonated with him because of his wife, first lady Michelle Obama, and his late mother. The president said he wanted to ensure that Mrs. Obama “has control over her health care choices” and noted that his mother would have been 70 this year had she not died from cancer nearly two decades ago. “I often think about what might have happened if a doctor had caught her cancer sooner,” Obama said. The president highlighted his decision to nominate Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan to the Supreme Court and said the next president “could tip the balance in a way that turns back the clock for women in the next decade to come.” The president was introduced by Sandra Fluke, whose congressional testimony became a flashpoint for arguments over contraception, abortion and women’s health earlier in the year. Fluke gained notoriety after conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh called her a slut because she supports the Obama health care law’s requirement that insurance companies cover contraception. Fluke said that when she was “verbally attacked,” Obama “was one of us.” “He defended my right to speak without being attacked, and he condemned those hateful words,” Fluke said. Recalling the incident, she mocked Romney for saying at the time that Limbaugh’s words “aren’t the words I would have chosen.” “If Mr. Romney can’t stand up to extreme voices in his own party, then he will never stand up for us,” she said.

bust absent Obama’s policies, which he says have stoked uncertainty among businesses, causing them to hold back on hiring. At the same time, he points to Kasich’s initiatives, including lowering income taxes and reducing government, for promoting growth. If elected, he adds, he plans to bring a similar smaller-government approach to Washington. “The improvement makes the economic arguments of both parties more complicated, and that will make an already competitive state more competitive,” said John C. Green, a political scientist at the University of Akron.
Changing industries As the Ohio economy climbs from the recession’s depths, it is being transformed in ways that many workers find uncomfortable. Booming biotech clusters are creating new health-care products and unfamiliar jobs. There is also a resurgence in auto manufacturing that has saved existing jobs more than it has created new ones, federal data show. In addition, the state is benefiting from a shale-gas boom that has brought new work to under-used steel mills and struggling rural enclaves, but many of the new drilling jobs are filled by out-of-state workers. Two decades ago, manufacturing accounted for more than one in five Ohio jobs. Since then, the share of factory jobs in the state has shrunk by almost half. Meanwhile, per-capita incomes have not increased since 2007, when adjusted for inflation, and wages have slipped further below the national average. Overall, more than 100,000 jobs have vanished in the state in the past decade. “Ohio did not bounce out of the 2000 recession” before the next one hit, said Mark Schweitzer, director of research for the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland. The consequence for many workers has been a prolonged period of high anxiety. Nate Modie, 29, says he has been laid off half a dozen times.
Most recently, he worked as a $22-an-hour welder, a trade he thought would offer a long career. But that proved to be wildly optimistic. “It’s really terrible,” said Modie, who is training at Cuyahoga Community College to be a machinist qualified to craft medical devices. He hopes to find a position that pays $17 an hour. “It seems like once you get comfortable in a job, you’re back on the street.” None of this has made him a big believer in politicians as agents of change. What he wants is someone who could re-create the job market enjoyed by his father, an iron worker for 32 years. But he is not sure who could do that. “I think employers are very wary about hiring on,” he said. “It’s like they are scared to make an investment in human resources.” Modie likes Obama, but he thinks the president has been ineffective in dealing with Republicans in Congress. “There’s just too much infighting,” he said. Romney, meanwhile, leaves him uneasy. “He is too much of a businessman, too much of a suit,” Modie said. “From getting laid off so many times, it is usually people like him who are behind it.” Others training for new health-industry jobs at Cuyahoga said they felt the same way. Jason Porter, 25, said the last good job he had was in 2009, when he was laid off from a $14-an-hour job in a diesel repair shop. Since then, he has worked doing home improvement with friends, then as a handyman for a small chain of thrift stores. “It was $11 an hour. No benefits. No nothing,” he said.
Visible improvement Workers may have their doubts about how they will ultimately benefit, but the recent growth of Ohio’s economy is evident along Euclid Avenue on this city’s East Side. Not long ago, this street was strewn with abandoned warehouses and other hulking relics evocative of the city’s proud industrial history and its long economic fall. Now, it is being resurrected as a thriv-
ing biomedical corridor. Cleveland HeartLab made its name by developing a blood test that identifies the large pool of people at risk for heart attacks or strokes despite having normal cholesterol levels and blood pressure. The test, which tracks biomarkers for cardiovascular inflammation, has been a huge hit, allowing the company to expand from eight to 110 workers in just over two years. The so-called health-tech corridor has attracted nearly $4 billion in investment in the past decade, including the huge Cleveland Medical Mart and Convention Center, which is nearing completion on the city’s once-forlorn lakefront. “That doesn’t happen in Cleveland,” said Jake Orville, the company’s president and chief executive. HeartLab’s explosive growth has led to the hiring of dozens of technicians and salespeople. It also has leased a 30,000-square-foot building and is, Orville boasts, the largest overnight and early morning delivery site in the city for UPS and FedEx. “The best thing that ever happened to the city of Cleveland was this recent recession/depression,” said Fred Geis, a developer who built HeartLab’s headquarters. “We’re not a steel industry place anymore and, finally, we were able to rip the rearview mirror off.” That has forced workers to remake themselves for an evolving economy. At NewBridge, a nonprofit that offers free vocational training for displaced workers and people trying to break into the workforce, the focus is on producing health-industry workers. The program is turning out a steady stream of pharmacy technicians and phlebotomists, the vast majority of whom are landing jobs right after graduation. “What I think is occurring in the economy is change,” said Erin Pierce, 26, a recent NewBridge graduate who works at University Hospitals Case Medical Center. “And you have to prepare yourself for it.”
Romney accuses Obama of using welfare to feed ‘culture of dependency’ By Seema Mehta and Christi Parsons Los Angeles Times
ELK GROVE VILLAGE, Ill. — Courting frustrated middle-class voters, Mitt Romney accused President Barack Obama on Tuesday of trying to weaken work requirements for welfare recipients, feeding a “culture of dependency” and undermining a hard-fought bipartisan agreement that is credited with reducing poverty in America. “I hope you understand President Obama in just the last few days has tried to reverse that accomplishment by taking the work requirement out of welfare,” Romney told supporters gathered in a precision machining factory in this Chicago suburb hours after he unveiled an ad on the subject. “That is wrong. If I’m president, I’ll put work back in welfare.” Romney is referring to a July directive from the Department of Health and Human Services that would grant waivers to states in how they administer welfare. Five states led by governors of both parties have requested such waivers to reduce red tape. The matter has caused controversy in the nation’s capital, with Republicans arguing that such a move is not in the executive branch’s purview, and that it waters down the welfare reform agreement hammered out by President Bill Clinton and Republicans in 1996. “Under Obama’s plan, you wouldn’t have to work and wouldn’t have to train for a job,” Romney’s ad says. “They just send you your welfare check.” But Democrats have argued that the move simply gives states more flexibility, and note that any state that accepts a waiver will have it
revoked if they don’t move at least 20 percent more people from welfare to work than in prior years. State leaders have long sought flexibility, including Romney, who in 2005 as governor of Massachusetts signed a letter along with other governors calling for “increased waiver authority.” “Perhaps his argument is with his past self,” said White House spokesman Jay Carney, who angrily dismissed Romney’s assertions as “an utter misrepresentation.” The Obama campaign went further, accusing Romney of not telling the truth and being a hypocrite. “As governor, Mitt Romney petitioned the federal government for waivers that would have let people stay on welfare for an indefinite period, ending welfare reform as we know it, and even created a program that handed out free cars to welfare recipients,” said Obama spokeswoman Lis Smith. But Republicans tried to use the dust-up to paint Obama as more liberal than Clinton, a theme they have repeated in recent months that is aimed at peeling away moderate Democrats who are frustrated with the president’s tenure. “Through this action, President Obama apparently believes that Bill Clinton was way too conservative and that the Obama administration is and should be far, far to the left of the Clinton administration, and I don’t think sacrificing the welfare of the most vulnerable in society for political purposes — which is what President Obama and his administration is doing — is right, or makes any sense at all,” Texas Senate candidate Ted Cruz told reporters on a conference call set up by the Romney campaign.

Census seeks to change how it measures race By Hope Yen The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — To keep pace with rapidly changing notions of race, the Census Bureau wants to make broad changes to its surveys that would treat “Hispanic” as a distinct category regardless of race, end use of the term “Negro” and offer new ways to identify Middle Easterners. The recommendations released Wednesday stem from new government research on the best ways to count the nation’s demographic groups. Still it could face stiff resistance from some racial and ethnic groups that worry that any kind of wording change in the highstakes government count could yield a lower tally for them. “This is a hot-button issue,” said Angelo Falcon, president of the National Institute for Latino Policy in New York City and a community adviser to the census. “The burden will be on the Census Bureau to come up with evidence that wording changes will not undermine the Latino numbers.” Arab-Americans said they strongly support the Census Bureau’s efforts. “The Census Bureau’s current method for determining Arab ancestry yields a significant undercount of the actual size of the community, and we’re optimistic that the new form should be significantly better at capturing ancestry data,” the Arab American Institute said in a statement.

The Census Bureau released recommendations Wednesday that would alter the way the nation’s demographic groups are counted. The recommendations could become controversial among some racial and ethnic groups that worry that changes in wording on the census forms, such as the 2010 forms shown above, might yield a lower tally for them.
The research is based on an experiment conducted during the 2010 census in which nearly 500,000 households were given forms with the race and ethnicity questions worded differently. The findings show that many people who filled out the traditional form did not feel they fit within the five government-defined categories of race: white, black, Asian, Pacific Islander and American Indian/Alaska Native; when questions were altered to address this concern, response rates and accuracy improved notably. For instance, because His-
panic is currently defined as an ethnicity and not a race, some 18 million Latinos — or roughly 37 percent — used the “some other race” category on their census forms to establish a Hispanic racial identity. Under one proposed change to the census forms, a new question would simply ask a person’s race or origin, allowing them to check a single box next to choices including black, white and Hispanic. The other changes would drop use of “Negro,” leaving a choice of “black” or African-American, as well as add
write-in categories that would allow Middle Easterners and Arabs to specifically identify themselves. Census director Robert Groves, who leaves his position Friday to become provost at Georgetown University, described the research findings as an important first step toward making changes in future censuses. “As new immigrant groups came to this country decade after decade, how we measure ethnicity changed to reflect the changing composition of the country,” Groves said. “Since that change is never ending and America gets more and more diverse, how we understand and tabulate the information has to be continually open to change.” “It’s critical that race and ethnicity reflect how people identify themselves,” he said. The issue isn’t just semantic. Some African-Americans in 2010, for instance, criticized a question asking if a person was “black, African-American or Negro,” saying the government’s continued use of the term “Negro” was demeaning and offensive. “We believe the proposed changes are consistent with the way most people do choose to self-identify and will enable census to more accurately capture the growing racial/ethnic diversity in the U.S.,” the National Urban League said Wednesday in a statement.
Fire highlights pollution concerns at California refinery By Jason Dearen The Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO — A massive Chevron oil refinery fire that sent hundreds of people rushing to hospitals and is pushing West Coast gas prices higher was just the latest pollution incident at the facility that records show has increasingly violated air quality rules over the past five years. The Chevron oil refinery is one of three such facilities near San Francisco that rank
among the state’s top 10 emitters of toxic chemicals, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Toxic Release Inventory. Chevron’s Richmond refinery — the scene of Monday’s fire that shrouded the area in black smoke — has been cited by San Francisco Bay area regulators for violating air regulations 93 times in the past five years. The number has increased from 15 violations in 2007 to 23
in both 2010 and 2011. The refinery is also the state’s largest emitter of greenhouse gases, according to state regulators. The Richmond refinery produces about 150,000 barrels of gasoline a day — or 16 percent of the region’s daily gasoline consumption of 963,000 barrels, said Tom Kloza, chief oil analyst at Oil Price Information Service. With inventories of gasoline in the region already low compared with the rest of the coun-
try, pump prices on the West Coast will soon average more than $4 a gallon, Kloza said. This week’s disruption in production quickly sent the price of a gallon of regular gasoline in California up 3 cents, said analyst Patrick DeHaan of the website GasBuddy.com. Investigations continued Wednesday into Chevron’s response to the fire and the effectiveness of Contra Costa County’s emergency warning system.

N B Temblors shake up Orange County LOS ANGELES — A series of Orange County earthquakes rattled residents around Southern California but caused no reported damage. “It shook us pretty good. We’ve felt earthquakes before, so it came as no surprise,” said Chris Nordyke, director of marketing at the Richard Nixon Library and Birthplace in Yorba Linda. “It shook open the door but nothing fell off the shelves.” He said an inspection of the facility was under way. Law enforcement officials in Orange County said there were no immediate reports of damage from the earthquake that hit near Yorba Linda about 9:30 a.m. Lt. Santo Porto of the Brea Police Department, which serves that city and Yorba Linda, said police had evacuated the department to check the structure but found no problems. “There’s no damage in either city that we’ve heard so far,” he said. Orange County sheriff’s officials said they had received no initial damage reports either.
Komen announces leadership changes DALLAS — The president of Susan G. Komen for the Cure is resigning and founder Nancy Brinker is moving away from its day-to-day management, the nation’s largest breast cancer foundation said Wednesday as fallout from its brief decision to end funding for Planned Parenthood reaches the organization’s highest ranks. President Liz Thompson will leave Komen next month and Brinker will relinquish her chief executive’s role for one more focused on fundraising and strategic planning, according to a statement from the Dallasbased organization. It’s the latest shake-up since news emerged in January that Komen had decided to eliminate its funding for Planned
Parenthood for breast-cancer screening. Komen reversed that decision after a three-day firestorm, though that didn’t quell the criticism. At least five other highranking executives resigned earlier this year.
All safe after bus burns on Interstate PARKERTOWN MILL, Ga. — A double-decker bus caught fire along Interstate 85 in northeast Georgia, forcing passengers to scramble off and closing the northbound lanes of the busy highway for hours. The bus was traveling from Atlanta to Charlotte, N.C., on Wednesday when the fire began about 11:40 a.m. near Parkertown Mill, Ga. Chicago-based Megabus said about 80 passengers were aboard and all were safely evacuated. The cause of the fire is under investigation.
Zimmerman trial not likely till 2013 George Zimmerman, the neighborhood watch volunteer who killed Trayvon Martin in Florida, will probably not face trial until early next year, his lawyers said. The Zimmerman case was scheduled on Wednesday for a docket sounding, a pro forma court procedure in which the court is given an update on the progress in the proceedings. However, Judge Kenneth Lester on Tuesday granted a defense request to continue the matter — that is, push the docket sounding back — until Oct. 3. “Moving forward, we expect there will be additional motions to continue, and it is anticipated, though not certain, that this case will not be ready for trial until early next year,” defense lawyer Mark O’Mara said in an online posting. Zimmerman is charged with second-degree murder in the shooting death of Martin, an unarmed AfricanAmerican teenager, in Sanford, Fla., on Feb. 26. — From wire reports

COLD CASE FILES
Continued from A1 Many people do not have time to attend City Council meetings and to remedy that, the City Council’s list of goals this year includes boosting citizen engagement, King said. City staff members will post topics for feedback, and residents will have the ability to post ideas on how to tackle city issues. Then other citizens will be able to vote for their favorite proposals. City employees will read through all of the ideas and respond to the people who submitted them, either with information on how the city might follow the idea or reasons why it will not work, for example if the cost would be too great. “Everything that’s submitted we definitely would reply to in one way or another,” Finestone said. “The IT manager and myself kind of have been talking about this for awhile and I was at a conference last year that was at Austin,” Finestone said. During the conference, Finestone was impressed by a presentation on the speakupaustin.org website. “Public meetings do work to some extent, but we tend to have the same people come to those,” Finestone said. Many City Council meetings draw only a couple of residents, though meetings on more controversial topics are sometimes packed. The city will spend $4,800 a year for a company called Granicus to host the website, Finestone wrote in an email. For that fee, Granicus will also make it possible to submit comments on city council agenda items online. Additionally, the city is purchasing software to help people more easily navigate city council video recordings and agendas. Citizens will be able to click on an agenda item and skip to that point in the video when the council discussed the item, Finestone wrote. Equipment to implement this will cost $6,800 and there will be an additional annual cost to the city of $4,200. “The goal is to make everything available to the public online, and easy to find and access,” Finestone said. The city will not hire any new employees to manage the website. Finestone will likely respond to comments on the new site, and City Recorder Robyn Christie will collect the comments people submit on City Council agenda items and provide them to the council, Finestone said. Speakupaustin.org went live more than a year ago, said Larry Schooler, community engagement consultant for the city of Austin and president elect of the International Association for Public Participation. Since then, at least 1,600 people have registered for accounts to use the site and many are pitching ideas to the city, Schooler said. “We’re real happy with that initial boost, to see that many people engaged and coming back on a regular basis for discussions or surveys or contributing their own original ideas,” Schooler said. People also vote on other contributors’ ideas, so popular proposals rise to the top. Sometimes, the City Council and city employees are already discussing ideas proposed on the site. In other cases, the idea originates from members of the public. “One that stands out that got kick-started or catalyzed by public excitement about it is a bike share,” Schooler said. The city is in the process of implementing that program. “There are some people when they look at a site like this, they think it’s aesthetically pleasing or politically popular to have it,” Schooler said. “For us, it’s really important for the public to understand all the comments are getting read, reviewed and analyzed.” In Bend, Finestone hopes the new website and council agenda links will go live in a couple of months.

Theft Continued from A1 “Identity theft is the crime wave of the future,” said Louis Stephens, special agent in charge of the U.S. Secret Service office in Minnesota. “It will affect more and more Americans.” Violent criminals and drug addicts are turning to identity theft because it’s a safer and more lucrative way to make money and easier to evade police. The Internet is full of black market websites offering to sell stolen credit cards, Social Security numbers and bank and checking accounts. The challenge of taking down the Minnesota rings, dubbed Operation Starburst and Operation Masquerade, was daunting. More than 10,000 people were victimized since 2006. So far, at least 50 people connected to the rings will be going to prison. Operation Starburst and Operation Masquerade are examples of the continuing trend of large rings investigated by the Minnesota Financial Crimes Task Force, a joint operation of federal, state and local law enforcement. Starburst ran from
2006 to 2011 and had operations in California, Massachusetts, Arizona, New York and Texas. The 200 members of the ring, which included bankers, succeeded in stealing more than 8,700 individual identities from around the world and more than $50 million. The ring, headed by Okeayainneh, a Californian, engaged in bank fraud, credit card fraud, identity theft, takeovers of home equity lines of credit and money laundering. Bank insiders protected the ring by watching for red flags that would trigger investigations or lead authorities to the ringleaders. “This is why the ring was effective for a long time,” Stephens said. “We need to protect the financial infrastructures in the United States. People are exploiting their vulnerabilities, and they need to be stopped.” Operation Masquerade involved a ring that allegedly pilfered financial information and identities of hundreds of people from cars, businesses, trash cans and mailboxes, and obtained some information from bank employees.

With old-time detective work and newer DNA technology, the New York medical examiner’s office is undertaking an ambitious effort to identify bodies in the city’s potter’s field.
The deceased are overwhelmingly male, typically white and often homeless. They are usually found in Manhattan. The sidewalk is a common death bed, as are subway platforms, where 106 of the unknowns — or 11 percent — were found. Some 15 percent are presumed homicide victims. About 22 percent of the unknowns are pulled from the water, and investigators presume that many are suicides.
In most of the older cases, the medical examiner’s office typically keeps a tissue sample from the autopsy; the samples have been used to extract DNA samples in numerous instances over the past three years. In cases without an autopsy sample, the medical examiner’s office has sought to exhume the body. Fingerprints have also led to identifications in a few cases, as improvements have been made in the sensitivity of the software that compares uploaded prints to various databases. Simply running the prints again years later has resulted in several identifications, Figura said. Central to the medical examiner’s efforts is a public database, called Namus, containing information on 7,645 missing person cases and the remains of 8,516 unidentified victims. The database has helped investigators, the relatives of missing persons and even amateur sleuths try to establish matches between the known missing persons cases and the unidentified. Reveron’s father, an usher for the Cleveland Indians and a former city councilman in Lorain, followed Figura’s instructions to use Namus to give a fuller profile of his missing son. When the identification was confirmed, the Reverons requested that their son’s remains be returned. They learned that Javier’s body had been disinterred before, when investigators suspected that he might have been a match with someone else. When the match came up negative, Javier’s body was reburied on Hart Island. The Reverons decided to cremate the remains in New York and then brought back what was left to Ohio. On June 19, 2010, the Reverons gave their son “a Catholic Mass and a proper Christian burial,” Reveron said. He said the family was grateful to Figura, saying that without his “personal involvement, we’d still be searching.” But, he added, “What happened in six years, should’ve only happened in one year.”
Henry, the task force’s commander. They went after the people who initially had the stolen information, then the people who deposited the profits in banks or bought merchandise with a fraudulent check and later the ringleaders, he said. The task force’s mission is to tackle the largest cases that impact the most victims, he said. The Minneapolis Police Department received about 2,000 reports of identity theft last year, said Lt. Chris Hildreth, who oversees the financial crimes unit. Even the smallest cases, such as a credit card stolen from a mailbox, are time-consuming because of the amount of computer data that needs to be analyzed, he said. The number of identity theft cases that resulted in charges in Hennepin County actually dropped from 132 in 2008 to 41 in 2011, said County Attorney Michael Freeman. A decrease in overall property crime may explain part of the reason, he said. But prosecutors also are charging more identity theft cases with crimes that are easier to prove and carry a similar penalty, like theft by
swindle or transactional card fraud, he said. Ramsey County Attorney John Choi does not want his office and the St. Paul Police Department to ignore the smaller theft cases because they still affect a lot of people. If thieves get away with the crime on a smaller scale, they will have confidence to commit more hefty crimes, he said. Retailers and financial institutions play a key role in notifying law enforcement about fraud patterns, which are also shared among businesses to help train employees and develop preventive measures, said John McCullough, spokesman for the Financial and Retailers Protection Association. The group has seen an increase in business accounts taken over by computer hackers and refunds from filing of fake employee tax returns. “It’s a daunting task to prevent fraud,” McCullough said. “It’s disheartening for businesses to say they no longer take checks or reduce the amount people can charge on their credit cards. But you need to keep the bad guys away.”

was based on his appearance, height and weight, and a distinctive fraternity brand on Wheeler’s arm, and that it was confirmed by DNA testing of his aunts and uncles. “We came to the conclusion that New York was a big city and a lot of people go missing,” she said. “As time went on, you know, it became a cold case.”
Not all go unnoticed Not all of these nameless dead perished unnoticed. The unknown cases include several Chinese immigrants who drowned after the Golden Venture ran aground off Queens in 1993. The episode drew extensive news coverage and shed light on the brutal conditions that some Asian immigrants endured to make it to New York. Another old case that has attracted the attention of the medical examiner’s office is that of “Baby Hope.” The girl, about 5 years old, has been known as Baby Hope since shortly after her body was discovered packed into a picnic cooler off the Henry Hudson Parkway in 1991. As the subject of an active homicide investigation, her body was exhumed in 2007 from St. Raymond’s Cemetery in the Bronx even before the medical examiner’s office had begun looking into all of its old unknown cases. But at the time, biologists were unable to extract any DNA because her bones were in such poor
Minnesota Board of Psychology also lifted information for the ring from state licensing applications. Using the data, ring members stole about $2 million from banks and retail businesses in at least 14 states, prosecutors say. The resources and expertise provided by the state financial crimes task force were critical in prosecuting the two rings, said Jeanne Cooney, spokeswoman for the U.S. Attorney’s office in Minnesota. One investigation followed on the heels of the other, she said. That raises the question: Were these rings an anomaly “or is this what we are going to see in the future?” she said. Cooney speculated the rings could be driven by the bad economy, people becoming more computer savvy or a sense of anonymity because the thefts can be done through the Internet. “We’ve even heard fraudsters say it was safer than robbing a bank,” she said. Investigators with the state financial crimes task force went after the rings the same way they would take down a gang or another organized criminal enterprise, said Pat
condition. “She had been in a cooler in the sun, and her bones were very brittle,” said Sheila Estacio Dennis, an assistant director in the medical examiner’s department of forensic biology. By 2011, because of advances in the medical examiner’s office in the DNA extraction process, Dennis said, the office was able to obtain a full DNA profile. It did not yield a match to existing DNA databases from convicted felons or from active missing person cases in which DNA samples had been collected. Investigators believe her parents, or one of them, most likely murdered her, as no one has come forward to identify the girl as his or her child. In reviewing hundreds of old cases, the medical examiner’s office has in effect been conducting a census of “the unknowns,” as Figura calls them.

Heat Continued from A1 “We have broken that 12month record for four consecutive months going back to April,” which has never happened before, said Jake Crouch, a climate scientist with the National Climactic Data Center in Asheville, N.C. Warmer temperatures in the winter helped pushed natural gas prices to a 10-year low in April, while heat since then has assisted futures in rebounding by more than 50 percent as people turn to air conditioning to keep cool. Average precipitation in the contiguous U.S. was 0.19 inch below normal for a total of 2.57 inches in July, extending drought conditions to 62.9 percent of the region by the end of the month, according to the U.S. Drought Monitor.
“The primary corn and soybean agriculture belt, hard hit by drought, experienced its eighth-driest July, third-driest June-July, and sixth-driest April-July growing season in the 1895-2012 record,” NOAA said. The combination of drought and heat has caused 50 percent of U.S. corn to be rated poor to very poor, while 39 percent of soybeans have the lowest ratings, according to the Department of Agriculture. Corn futures have risen 59 percent since mid-June and soybeans have advanced 21 percent, potentially raising food prices, according to the United Nations. The drought has helped contribute to warmer-thannormal temperatures, Crouch said by telephone. “Whenever we have drought in the summer, daytime tem-
Bill Continued from A1 But it goes even further, authorizing the Bureau of Reclamation, which controls the flow of water from the dam, to release as much of the roughly 80,000 unallocated acre-feet — roughly half of the water in the reservoir — deemed necessary to promote healthy fish and fisheries downstream. The Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs and the state of Oregon would consult with the Bureau of Reclamation, providing recommendations on how much water to release and when. “We have taken a huge step in what was needed up here in the upper (Deschutes) basin, particularly in the Crooked River, to make these streams ready for salmon and steelhead,” said John Ogan, legal counsel for the Confederate Tribes. “The Senate bill picked up the pillars of the Walden bill, and (added) the issue of can we come to agreement of how to use the unallocated water.” For decades, multiple and diverse interests have fought over water rights, producing considerable skepticism and mistrust. These obstacles took months to overcome, said Merkley. “We had all the elements necessary to bring the sides together, but we needed to keep building the communication and the trust between the parties,” he said. “I think it helped a lot to have this intensive, five-month discussion where people went through the process of hearing each other out.”

Like the House version, the Senate bill reaffirms the previous water commitments to irrigators and water districts, who were nervous they would lose standing if concessions were made to provide more water for fisheries. Kate Miller, an attorney with Trout Unlimited, said the agreement respects the users who have been relying on the water while at the same time recognizing the need to make more water available instream for fish. “That inclusion in the package made the bill a lot more balanced,” she said. Other conservation groups who support the bill include American Rivers and WaterWatch. For the Consolidated Tribes, improving the health of the fisheries and restoring salmon and steelhead to their historic habitats has been paramount, said Ogan. Now that the multimillion-dollar Pelton Round

peratures tend to increase,” he said. Crouch said the current weather can’t be used to predict the next six months. If an El Nino ocean warming pattern develops in the central Pacific later this year, it could change the weather across the U.S., he said. The U.S. Climate Prediction Center will update its forecast for an El Nino on Thursday, Crouch said. An El Nino often leads to more rain across the southern U.S. “If an El Nino were to form, that would be a game-changer for us,” Crouch said. The heat and lack of rain have also created “ideal wildfire conditions,” NOAA said. More than 2 million acres across the U.S. burned during July, nearly 500,000 more than the annual average and the fourth most since 2000.
Butte fish passage is operational, fish that spawned and grew in the upper basin have returned as adults, making the prospect of sustainable and even harvestable fish populations a distinct possibility. “The return of salmon and steelhead shifted the conversation about what to do with the water in the Prineville Reservoir,” he said. Another key element of the Senate version is a plan for how to handle particularly dry years, he said. By using biologically sound, science-based calculations on how to best dole out water at various times during the year, all stakeholders will benefit from a more stable situation, he said. “You can imagine the needle we had to thread to find a balance to bring that coalition together,” Ogan said. “Walden’s bill kept the conversation going.” The bill has been referred to the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources, which must approve it before it goes to the full Senate for a vote. It will be a challenge to get the legislation passed before the term ends, Ogan said, but Oregon’s congressional delegation now has support across the spectrum of stakeholders. “It’s a success story that may be unparalleled, especially in (Oregon), considering the subject matter and the players who were involved,” Ogan said. “We’re unified.... Left to their own, everybody would have written it up differently. But the balance is there.” — Reporter: 202-662-7456, aclevenger@bendbulletin.com
Ernesto picks up strength, moves into Gulf By Ken Kaye Sun Sentinel (MCT)
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — After moving into the warm waters of the southern Gulf of Mexico on Wednesday afternoon, Tropical Storm Ernesto refound some strength. At 2 p.m. PDT, the system was about 30 miles northeast of Ciudad Del Carmen, Mexico, moving west at 13 mph with sustained winds of 50 mph. The system had steadily deflated from hurricane status down to 45 mph while plowing across Mexico’s Yucatan Pen-
insula earlier in the day. The National Hurricane Center also is monitoring a disturbance in the Eastern Atlantic, giving it a 30 percent chance of developing into a tropical depression or storm over the next two days. Senior hurricane specialist Jack Beven said the tropical wave gained some organization overnight but showed little sign of strengthening on Wednesday. “It has a chance to develop, but it’s too early to speculate how much or where it might wind up,” he said.
On Wednesday afternoon, that system was about 750 miles southwest of the Cape Verde Islands, moving west at 10 to 15 mph. The next named storm will be Gordon. Ernesto, the second hurricane of the season, made landfall near Chetumal, Mexico, at about 7:15 p.m. PDT Tuesday with sustained winds of 85 mph. According to early reports, it flooded streets in that port city and caused some wind damage. The storm now is projected to make a second landfall on the Mexico mainland.
PASADENA, Calif. — The ancient Martian crater where the Curiosity rover landed looks strikingly similar to the Mojave Desert in California with its looming mountains and hanging haze, scientists said Wednesday. “The first impression that you get is how Earthlike this seems looking at that landscape,” said chief scientist John Grotzinger of the California Institute of Technology. Overnight, the car-size rover poked its head out for the first time since settling in Gale Crater, peered around and returned a blackand-white self-portrait and panorama that’s still being processed. It provided the best view so far of its destination since touching down Sunday night after nailing an intricate choreography. During the last few seconds, a rocket-powered spacecraft hovered as cables lowered Curiosity to the ground. In the latest photos, Curiosity looked out toward the northern horizon. Nearby were scour marks in the surface blasted by thrusters, which kicked up a swirl of dust. There were concerns that Curiosity got dusty, but scientists said that was not the case. “We do see a thin coating of dust, but nothing too bad,” said Justin Maki, imaging scientist at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, which manages the $2.5 billion mission. Scientists were giddy about the scour marks because they exposed bedrock below — information that should help them better understand the landing site. Since landing, Curiosity has zipped home a stream of low-resolution pictures taken by tiny cameras under the chassis and a camera at the end of its ro-

botic arm, which remained stowed. It also sent back a low-quality video showing the last 21⁄2 minutes of its descent. The rover successfully raised its mast packed with high-resolution and navigation cameras. With the mast up, it can begin its shutterbug days in force, including taking a 360-degree color view of its surroundings as early as Thursday. Grotzinger said he was struck by the Martian landscape, which appeared diverse. There seemed to be harder material underneath the gravelly surface, he said. “It kind of makes you feel at home,” he said. “We’re looking at a place that feels really comfortable.” Mars, of course, is very different from Earth. It’s a frigid desert constantly bombarded by radiation. There are geological signs that it was a warmer and
wetter place once upon a time. One of the mission’s goals is to figure out how Mars transformed. After sailing 352 million miles and eight months, Curiosity parked its six wheels near the Martian equator, where it will spend the next two years poking into rocks and soil in search of the chemical ingredients of life. It is the most expensive and ambitious mission yet to Mars. Its ultimate destination is a mountain towering from the center of the crater floor. Preliminary estimates indicate Curiosity landed four miles away from the base of Mount Sharp, thought to contain intriguing signs of past water — a starting point to learning whether microbial life could exist. Before the 1-ton, nuclearpowered Curiosity can start roving, it has to undergo several weeks of tedious but essential health checks.

TRAIL UPDATE Go time for trails up to 6,000 feet Trails are improving substantially in the high country, said Chris Sabo, U.S. Forest Service trails specialist. He said 6,000 feet seems to be the magic number for snow on the east side of the mountains, although trails on the west side of the Cascade crest are melted out up to 5,800 feet. Some sections of the Pacific Crest Trail are still under snow lower than 6,000 feet, particularly those on north-facing or shaded slopes. Road 370 to Broken Top is still blocked by snow and the gate is locked, potentially for another week, Sabo said. The Green, Moraine and Todd lakes trails, South Sister and Broken Top trails and the Three Sisters loop trail have improved but still have patchy snow and may also have fallen trees across the trails. About half the designated campsites are accessible. South Sister may have longer patches of snow high up on the climber trail, Sabo said. Proper hiking footwear, layers and survival essentials are important for heading into these areas. Be sure to avoid using muddy trails to keep from damaging them. Canyon Creek Meadow has some remaining patchy snow in the meadows, but the trails are pretty much clear, Sabo said. The Diamond Peak area is improving and the PCT is accessible at the north end. Volunteers and Youth Conservation Corps crews are working to maintain the trails. There will be heavy trail maintenance on the east and west portions of the Metolius River trails until Aug. 24, Sabo said. Expect limited closures and detours.

Check out planetary display and meteor shower By Bill Logan For The Bulletin
August is always an exciting month for stargazers of all ages. This year is no exception, but tonight you’ll have to watch the sky just after sunset to catch a rare view. Saturn and Mars are located together low in the southwest. Together with the bright star Spica, they form a nice little triangle. Get a glimpse of these two outer planets before they set at 10:12 tonight. Within the next couple of weeks, both
SKY WATCH planets will be lost in the sun until later this year, when they will appear in the morning sky. The gas giant Jupiter rises at 1 a.m. Friday east-northeast in the constellation Taurus. It will be very bright, located just east of the globular cluster Pleiades, and easily seen
with the naked eye. Jupiter will be a crowd-pleaser for the rest of the year as we orbit the sun and the entire sky moves more westward. In late September, Jupiter and its four moons will rise around 10 p.m. and will be a delightful view in any telescope or binoculars. Another crowd-pleaser is Venus. It will rise in the east between the constellation Orion and Gemini at 2:33 a.m. Friday. Venus is on the inside orbital track speeding away
from Earth. Venus is the thirdbrightest object in the sky. Only the sun and moon are brighter. For the early risers in the predawn hours, look for the planet Mercury at 4:48 a.m. Friday. It will be easy to spot as the two Gemini stars, Castor and Pollux, will point to Mercury. Jupiter, Venus and Mercury are all in a straight line in the east. In the early morning hours of Sunday, we will be graced by the annual Perseid meteor shower. Earth is traveling through
the debris field of Comet Halley. From midnight until dawn, you should be able to see, with the naked eye, one or two meteors per minute. Look to the northeast toward the constellation Perseus, from which they seem to emanate. The moon will be a waning crescent during this time.

A & A
Exhausted caregivers must call on others to help out Dear Abby: I think what “End of My Rope� (May 3) may have failed to say is that she’s tired of sacrificing her own life to care for her ill-tempered, terminally ill husband. Harsh as this may seem, it’s a fact. I have been caring for my father for eight years. He’s suffering from severe dementia and is now an invalid. I, too, provide him round-the-clock care. My suggestion to “End� would be to talk to a respite facility about giving her a “vacation� from her husband. I do this with my father twice a year. His appreciation for the care I give him increases greatly after being in a “home.� He goes for only one week at a time, but it’s long enough for me to miss him and for him to realize I’m not so bad after all. “End� is overwhelmed and angry right now because her husband expects so much from her. This isn’t his fault. It is normal for someone with brain cancer. If no one else is stepping up to give her the breaks she so desperately needs, then she must consider her own well-being. She must do what her heart tells her. She has my sympathy and respect for what she has done so far. — Been There, Still Doing That Dear Been There: Thank you for writing. Many readers responded, offering suggestions gained from personal experience. Their comments: Dear Abby: I suggest “End� call all of her husband’s friends and family. Many people offer help in times like this, but they don’t know how. Schedule assignments for sitting with her husband, preparing meals, running errands, assisting with getting him in and out of the car on appointment days, or any tasks that need to be done. Loved ones will appreciate being asked to help in tangible ways. I urge her to take a drive or go out to lunch and leave the caretaking to a trusted friend for an hour or two. Her husband does not realize the enormous burden she car-
DEAR ABBY ries. When she’s at her lowest, I also recommend a simple prayer asking for strength. — Louise in Bradenton, Fla. Dear Abby: You gave “End of My Rope� helpful information about hospice care for her husband in their home, but more services are available from most hospices. In addition to doctors, nurses, home health aides and volunteers, services are provided by chaplains and social workers who offer essential emotional and spiritual support to dying patients and their families. The hospice that employs me as chaplain also provides bereavement counseling to families by professional grief counselors — at no charge — for a year after the patient’s passing. — Honored to be a Hospice Chaplain Dear Abby: Our dad was ill for a number of years with Alzheimer’s. We are a large family of siblings, but most lived away from our hometown. Though we were fortunate to have in-home care, the dayto-day management fell to me and one of my sisters. As the oldest, I took it upon myself to write a straightforward letter to my siblings regarding Dad’s condition and the progression of his illness. Then I assigned consecutive weekends to each one, telling them this was their weekend to come, spend time with Dad and help with his care. I said they were free to trade weekends among themselves, but the expectation was that Dad would have his family with him every weekend until he passed. It worked pretty well, with most siblings taking the responsibility seriously and as a chance to express their love and gratitude to Dad in his last days. — Daniel in Visalia, Calif. — Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.
Horoscope: Happy Birthday for Thursday, Aug. 9, 2012 By Jacqueline Bigar This year you often say one thing yet do another. Your mixed messages could cause confusion and a sense of unfulfillment. You might feel like you never get what you want, which could be a reflection of problematic communication. You might decide to add more clarity to the way you express your thoughts. If you are single, you could attract someone through your work or public commitments. Though this bond might not be “it,� you could really enjoy this person. If you are attached, as a couple you decide to be more visual than in recent years. TAURUS approves of how you present yourself. 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) HHHH Pressure builds, and your finances could be tied to the situation. Sorting through ways to defuse the matter to the approval of those involved could take unusual talent. Go after a creative venture, and trigger your imagination in other areas of your life as well. Tonight: Your treat. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH Get into the moment. You might not have the agreement from others that you might like. Discover alternatives. A meeting helps you figure out the most logical and effective way to proceed. A friend inspires you. Tonight: Absolutely what you want. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHH Listen to your instincts concerning a child or loved one. You see someone in a new light as a result of detaching and/or tapping into a different perspective. Do not hesitate to work on what feels right to you. Tonight: Get some extra R and R. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHHH Focus on success and feeling successful, and you will be successful. You demonstrate the power of positive thought and go for what you want. Your imagination seems endless, and it allows you to identify with others. Tonight: Whatever would make you happiest. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH You might want to do something a lot differently from how someone else does it. The issue is that this person seems to have more leverage than you do. Your creativity will help even out the power balance. It might be smart to pull back some.
Tonight: Could go to the wee hours. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Allow your mind to wander and gain insight. You might laugh at yourself and how you personalized a situation. Laughter is more important than you realize in staying relaxed and open. Someone you care about touches base. Tonight: Go with what pleases you. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Deal with others directly — you will like the results a lot better. You see a situation for what it offers, and more. Go out of your way to let someone know how you feel. Your instincts carry you far in your dealings. Tonight: Dinner for two. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH You might want to rethink what is happening within your immediate circle. By asking questions, you could cause others to distance themselves. Relate in an open manner, and it will bring forth more of the information you are curious to hear. Tonight: Go with a suggestion. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH You want to do something differently, but you might not be sure how to proceed. You could be overwhelmed by a family member or close friend who could be a little too gushy for your style. This person is simply sharing. You do not need to do anything. Tonight: Get some extra R and R. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH You might want to fit some downtime in, but a child or loved one needs some playtime. You might need to rearrange your schedule, but do what you feel is right. You have an intuitive hunch about money or love. Tonight: Get into the moment. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH What you’re thinking about getting done or working with might not be viable if you wait much longer. Though you have a strong intuitive hunch about a financial matter, it does not mean that it’s right. Be sure that you can afford for this feeling to be wrong. Tonight: Close to home. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Your emotions lead you, and you have little choice but to follow them. Your caring self-expression means a lot, whether you are expressing an innate talent or telling someone how you feel. Tension builds around your daily routine. Tonight: Ever playful.

Don’t forget to stop at trailhead bulletin boards for important information about fire closures and regulations and to pick up a wilderness permit, which is free, self-issuing and different from the Northwest Forest Pass. Before heading into the wilderness, be prepared with survival essentials and a plan
to “leave no trace,� Sabo said. Keeping the trails free of garbage, damage and both human and dog waste is the responsibility of every trail user. A general principle for keeping the trail sanitary is to either pack out the waste or dig a “cathole� 6-8 inches deep at least 200 feet from trails or water for the waste — and then cover it.
Garbage (including toilet paper) should always be packed out. For a refresher on “leave no trace� principles, visit http:// lnt.org/learn/7-principles. For additional specific trail information, see the trail update on the Deschutes National Forest website: http://tinyurl .com/d29jsll.

Outing Continued from B1 On the other, there are no secrets. Not even counting guidebooks, unless there are places yet to be mapped and satellite-imaged “to death,” there are no destinations I can tell Outside about that they couldn’t locate themselves by looking at a Google map, or better still, the Central Oregon Hiking-Trail Map from Adventure Maps Inc., which is what I use. Three days after the offending article ran, I drove by Sparks Lake — twice. Both times I kept an eye out for paddlers on the north branch (yes, the supposedly secret portion of the lake is also the part most clearly visible from Cascade Lakes Highway) and didn’t see one paddler. So don’t fret too much if you see your favorite “secret” lake divulged here. If it’s not in someone’s nature to paddle to an unfamiliar part of Sparks Lake or to hike to remote lakes in Three Sisters Wilderness, a newspaper article is not likely to change that. To spread the wealth and any possible new crowd a little, I’ll tell you about three lakes that require hikes of varying distances. Two and a half weeks ago, my family and I hiked to Lucky Lake, a 1.4-mile hike from the trailhead, located just south of Lava Lake on the west side of Cascade Lakes Highway. Although the kids would probably report a more torturous story to the United Nations or whoever enforces the Geneva Conventions, the trail is an easy, slightly uphill hike through scenic, sun-dappled forest that, at times, affords glimpses of Mount Bachelor in all its brown summery splendor. Though we didn’t walk all the way around the lake trail, we saw enough to get the idea that Lucky Lake doesn’t have a beach in the same sense that Elk Lake has beaches. Which means, if you get there in the late afternoon like we did, the best spots — defined here as having a break in the trees to set down your stuff and access the water — are probably already occupied by others. Though Lucky doesn’t have the crowds of, say, Elk Lake’s Sunset Beach, we encountered lots of other little groups dotting the shore, many of them camping. Our chance to get even farther from the crowds came last weekend, when my wife and I took advantage of the absence of our kids, who are off visiting relatives in the Midwest, to swim in still more pristine lakes. Saturday, we hoofed it to Teddy Lake, about four miles each way from the Winopee Lake Trailhead at Cultus Lake. What a stark contrast these two lakes present. The much larger Cultus is heavily used by motor boats, and because access to the trailhead is adjacent to the campground, you see a lot of RVs, canopies and tents through the trees. It’s interesting to see all the stuff people bring while camping these days: tents, tables, chairs, bikes, giant floats, anchored boats, electronics, etc. I recognized Alex Morley’s yellow FJ Cruiser (it has his name on it) parked at the trailhead. Morley is an active Bend retiree, and a couple of years back he and I did an outing to-

gether at Lake Billy Chinook. When we met up with him, I was heartened to see Morley, 93, still getting down the trail with the help of a Swedishmade outdoor walker called a Veloped, replete with knobby tires, a seat to rest on, suspension and handbrakes. Thinking about it now, I kind of want one, and I’m in my 40s. After visiting with Morley and his companion, Bend writer Helen Vandervort, we headed back down the trail. After about an hour of hiking, we reached the Winopee Lake Trail turnoff. The forest here is less of that cool, lakeside green and more that hot, lodgepole pine, but less than a mile later we reached the sign pointing the way to Teddy Lake, just a half mile away. We encountered a lot of blowdown across the trail, and little clusters of blooming lupin, and soon we were standing at the shore of Teddy Lake and the remnants of a pretty well-established
campsite where someone had taken the trouble to make benches from the many logs lying around. The water looked clear and inviting, but there were blowndown trees everywhere. I, of course, led us around toward the western shore and even heavier blowdown. Finally heeding my wife’s keener eye, we backtracked to a trail leading around the eastern shore of the lake. We found another campsite and set down our gear before climbing in for a well-earned swim. We spent a couple of hours here swimming, eating and lazing in the sunshine, with only our dog and a few mosquitoes as companions, but not enough to bother with the bug repellent we’d brought along. We didn’t see another person until late in the hike out, a pack of mountain bikers by Cultus Lake. We liked Teddy Lake so much that upon waking the next morning, we decided to
head back up the hill to check out Blow and Doris, a pair of lakes located just southwest of Elk Lake. The large parking area at the trailhead here was wide and dusty and fairly crowded with cars, and I correctly assumed we weren’t looking at more Teddy Lakelike solitude. The trail up — a little steeper than those leading to Lucky and Teddy lakes — is dotted with moss, wildflowers, firs and marshy green ponds connected by trickling streams. Blow Lake was another gorgeous sight to behold, but as the name suggests, it’s heavily surrounded by blowdown. We made our way on to Doris Lake, and found a couple of great spots to kick off our sandals and swim. The water here is a little colder than Teddy and Lucky lakes, but no less refreshing when you jump in to rinse off the trail dust. Some readers may be crestfallen to see their favorite lake
divulged here. Me, I’m excited. It’s still hot, it’s still summer, and in my case, the kids are still out of town and there’s a lot more splendid seclusion to be had. And as I look at the map on my desk, I see dozens, maybe hundreds more lakes within

striking distance of those I’ve mentioned: Island, Dumbbell, Copepod, Questionmark and Zowie lakes, to name but a few. If you go to any of these, be prepared with maps, GPS, drinking water, sunscreen and proper footwear. You may consider water shoes for the lakes, which are crystal clear, but lake-bottom muck stirred up by moving legs and feet can quickly turn submerged rocks and logs into unseen obstacles. — Reporter: 541-383-0349, djasper@bendbulletin.com

WCL BASEBALL LONDON OLYMPICS
Elks win, but will miss playoffs LONGVIEW, Wash. — The Bend Elks beat the Cowlitz Black Bears 6-3 in 10 innings on Wednesday night, but they were eliminated from West Coast League playoff contention despite the victory. With just two WCL games remaining heading into Wednesday, the Elks needed a pair of wins over Cowlitz and two losses by the Klamath Falls Gems, the second-place team in the West Division, to reach the playoffs. But the Gems defeated the Corvallis Knights, putting an end to Bend’s playoff hopes. The Elks blew a 3-1 lead in the bottom of the ninth inning, but they bounced back to score three runs in the top of the 10th. Will Sparks put Bend ahead with a sacrifice fly in the extra frame, while Shawn O’Brien doubled home a run and Jake Azevedo had an RBI single. After pitching a rocky ninth inning, J.R. Bunda worked a scoreless 10th for the win. Garrett Anderson started for Bend and gave up just one run in five innings. O’Brien went three for four with two doubles and two runs batted in to lead the Elks. Bend got seven of its 11 hits after the eighth inning. The Elks take on Cowlitz again tonight at 6:35 in Longview in their final WCL game of the season. — Bulletin staff report
NFL Manning set for his Denver debut ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — Peyton Manning is about to face his first pass rush in 579 days. The four-time MVP makes his Denver Broncos debut in the preseason opener at Chicago today. If he has an extra pep in his step or anticipates a larger than usual adrenaline rush against the Bears, he’s not showing it. He insists it’s simply the next steppingstone in his comeback in Denver after missing all of last season with a nerve injury in his neck that weakened his throwing arm and led to his tearful farewell from the Indianapolis Colts. Manning’s comeback is the biggest story line in the league heading into the 2012 season. This will be Manning’s first game since the Pro Bowl following the 2010 season and his first with a pass rush to contend with since the Colts lost to the New York Jets in the AFC wild-card round on Jan. 8, 2011. —The Associated Press

Medal count can be daily source of discontent By David Segal New York Times News Service
LONDON — For the handful of countries sitting at the top of the medal count, the Olympics have been a source of joy and a cause for celebration. Then, there is the rest of the world. More than 200 nations are compet-
ing here, and so far fewer than half have landed a single medal. But the carping among fans and in the news media is loudest and most merciless in countries that have turned up on the winners’ podium, though not as often as expected. In Germany, there has been handwringing about its swimmers, who
failed to win a medal for the first time in decades. In India, there has been rage about the disastrous showing of the men’s field hockey team. And in Australia the news media have poked fun at their athletes for underachieving in nearly every sport. See Medal / C6

HUNTING & FISHING COMMENTARY
Terry Stotts meets the media in Portland, C2
Prospecting for bucks in the high country W New Portland head coach Terry Stotts speaks during a news conference on Wednesday.
e wound our way along a one-lane ridgetop road and stopped where a patch of trees had been cut six to eight years before. It was one of those spots where the understory can produce the forbs (longleaved flowers and weeds) and twiggy shrubs on which deer make a living. This spot and several others along this road had jumped out at me from the map and Google Earth. Here the contours were close together and little

lines of blue snaked down to the river below. With a Base Image Backcountry Atlas in hand, I divined the topography then referenced the map on the aerial photo beside to find small clearings left by the last timber harvests.
Where there were stumps there were also new trees grown to 15 feet high and groves of vine maple that obscured the small openings. I watched for the right tree. This season, I plan to hang a tree stand and hunt from up high. When I last carried a rifle in this unit, four years ago, I knew I’d be back, but I would hunt from above. While we sweat through the heat of August, mule deer and blacktail, their
antlers cased in velvet, spend the summer on open meadows. They bed near the tops of ridges to catch the wind that blows down the canyons. We found tracks between stands of shrubs and withered wildflowers and calculated the various merits of specific trees. In one instance, I found the track of a buck between the roots of a fir and was able to chart his trail up through the vine maple below. See Bucks / C8

Stotts out to prove record isn’t everything as new Blazers coach By Steven Dubois The Associated Press
PORTLAND — Terry Stotts says there a lot of good coaches who don’t have good records, and he hopes to show Portland Trail Blazers fans that he’s one of them. Stotts was 115-168 as coach of the Atlanta Hawks and Milwaukee Bucks before spending the past four seasons as an assistant with the Dallas Mavericks, where he won a championship. He was an assistant under George Karl before he got first head coaching opportunity. “George Karl, who I was with for over 10 years in the NBA, didn’t have a winning record after his first four years and he’s going to be a Hall of Fame coach,” Stotts said at his introductory press conference Wednesday. “I think you got to keep learning, you got to keep improving and — you do that — good things are going to happen.”
General manager Neil Olshey said he’s “absolutely confident” the team found the right coach and Stotts will improve the team’s offense. Stotts inherits a team that missed the playoffs with a 28-38 record last season and heads into the new campaign with a roster primarily rebuilt with rookies rather than veterans. Olshey said he spoke with every general manager and head coach that Stotts has worked for, and also talked to players who have been coached by him — from stars such as Dirk Nowitzki to role players. “Everybody kept talking about how Terry has a plan,” he said. “He understands process. He has a long-term outlook for the franchise. He makes guys better.” Because the team will rely so heavily on unproven players, Olshey said it’s impossible to set expectations for the coming season, other than the expectation the team gets bet-

ter every day. The 54-year-old Stotts replaces Kaleb Canales, who went 8-15 in an interim role after Nate McMillan was fired. Stotts and Canales emerged as the finalists for the perma-
nent job, and the men interviewed with owner Paul Allen on Friday at the London Olympics. Canales, a Trail Blazers employee since 2005, will remain with the club as an assistant. Olshey said it was not
a prerequisite for Stotts to get the job. Stotts said he hopes to make the playoffs, but his primary objective is to make sure the young players are better in April than October. On offense, he plans to speed up the Trail Blazers’ often-stagnant pace and emphasize the extra pass and the three-point shot. “Obviously, LaMarcus Aldridge is a stud,” Stotts said about the All-Star forward. “Hopefully I’ll be able to use him in a lot of similar ways that we used Dirk Nowitzki.” Rookie Damian Lillard, the sixth overall pick in the draft, is expected to start at point guard after his good showing in the Las Vegas summer league. Stotts said the rookie will provide the team with a pick-and-roll game it has lacked. Other young players include 7-foot-1 Meyers Leonard, the 11th overall pick in the draft;
guard Elliot Williams, who had flashes of brilliance before a shoulder injury ended his season; and a pair of new imports — forward Joel Freeland of Great Britain and swingman Victor Claver of Spain. Stotts is known for an easygoing approach that will help him deal with the highs-andlows of young players. “I don’t know about that,” he said. “People say I’m easygoing, even-keeled or something like that. You know, I have my moments.” Stotts coached Atlanta to a 52-85 record after replacing Lon Kruger in December 2002. Stotts was an assistant with Golden State before getting his second chance as a head coach with Milwaukee in 2005. He led the Bucks to the playoffs in 2006, but was fired toward the end of the following season. Before becoming a head coach, Stotts was an assistant under Karl for six years in Seattle and four with Milwaukee.

Americans Misty May-Treanor, left, and Kerri Walsh Jennings celebrate their win during the women’s gold medal beach volleyball match on Wednesday in London.
American duo makes it three straight golds By Jimmy Golen The Associated Press
LONDON — Misty May-Treanor danced on the sand and then off it, leaving Horse Guards Parade with Kerri Walsh Jennings and a third gold medal. Playing in the Summer Games together for the last time, the twice-defending champions extended their unbeaten streak to 21 in a row — through Athens, Beijing and now London — by defeating Jennifer Kessy and April Ross 21-16, 21-16 in an allAmerican final on Wednesday night. The match started with nearby Big Ben pealing the hour and ended with the “Star-Spangled Banner” rising from the iconic venue in the Prime Minister’s backyard, just down the Mall from the royal residence at Buckingham Palace. Playing on Henry VIII’s former jousting tiltyard, with the current Prince Harry in the crowd, Walsh Jennings and May-Treanor continued their reign as champions of the beach. “It’s insane. It doesn’t feel like it’s real,” Walsh Jennings said. “I told Misty when we were getting our medals: ‘If I wake up tomorrow and we have to replay this match, I’m going to be furious.’ Because it feels like I’m in a dream. “It truly feels surreal and it didn’t feel like that the first two times for whatever reason. But this, it’s almost too good to be true.” Dominating the sport for three Olympiads, Walsh Jennings and May-Treanor have won every match they’ve ever played at the Summer Games and lost just one of 43 sets. No one had ever won even two beach volleyball gold medals before the Americans won their second straight in Beijing. No woman had ever won three Olympic beach volleyball medals of any kind. “I know how hard it is to win one tournament. And the amount of tournaments they’ve won is crazy,” said Kessy, who jumped for joy on the medal podium after she and Ross won silver in their Olympic debuts. “For them to do it for years and years and to be on top is just really impressive. We learn a lot from them.” Earlier Wednesday, Brazil’s Juliana and Larissa beat Xue Chen and Zhang Xi of China to win the bronze.

We learn a lot from them.” —Silver medalist Jennifer Kessy, talking about three-time Olympic champions Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh Jennings
Brazil’s Emanuel and Alison were scheduled to play Julius Brink and Jonas Reckermann of Germany in the men’s gold-medal match tonight. Martins Plavins and Janis Smedins of Latvia were to play Reinder Nummerdor and Rich Schuil of the Netherlands for the men’s bronze. Walsh Jennings and May-Treanor pulled away midway through the first set of the title match and were never threatened in the second, falling to their knees and hugging as Ross’ serve went long on match point. Then they took the celebration to the stands, circling the stadium that was built on the 500-year-old parade grounds now used by the Queen’s household cavalry. Walsh Jennings covered her bare shoulders with an American flag and grabbed her children; the older one was a little scared. They high-fived the Horse Guards Parade Dance Team and volunteers and just about anyone holding an American flag. And, with both teams in the final from the United States, there were a lot of them. “It’s one thing to play an Olympic final. It’s another to play against a team from your county you know so well,” said Walsh Jennings, who played with Kessy on a U.S. junior team. “I think the only reason Misty and I are gold medalists is because of those two. They push us so hard. They’re one of my favorite teams to beat because they’re so good. They’ve been one of the top teams in the world since they got together. I’m just really grateful that we’ve had them to come up against because they’ve made a big difference in our career.”
LONDON — Abby Wambach hopped down from the second-place spot on the podium at last summer’s World Cup already envisioning a rematch with Japan a year later in London — for Olympic gold. She got it. Penalty kicks were all that separated the Americans and Japanese that day in Frankfurt, Germany. Japan twice rallied from behind in the 2-2 game, then won 3-1 on penalty kicks to pull off the upset. The victory provided a much-needed morale boost for a nation still suffering from the devastating March 2011 earthquake and tsunami. Now these women’s soccer rivals meet with the world watching again. They play for the Olympic title today at Wembley Stadium. “I think the fact that we lost the World Cup and the way that we did gives us even more passion and desire to go out and perform tomorrow,” Wambach said Wednesday. “The truth is, this is going to be a great day, a great day for soccer, a great day for women’s sports, and something that hopefully we’ll be able to remember for the rest of our lives — and hopefully it’s in a good way.” Also today, the first Olympic gold medals ever in women’s boxing will be awarded at the ExCel arena. U.S. middleweight Claressa Shields, at just 17, is the Americans’ lone hope of a boxing championship at the London Games. She will fight in the title bout against Russia’s Nadezda Torlopova after all nine U.S. men were eliminated in the first Olympic medal shutout in U.S. men’s boxing history. In track and field, no man has won backto-back Olympic 200-meter titles. Then again, Usain Bolt is like no other man. The Jamaican superstar sprinter, looking to become “a living legend,” tries for more history — and a remarkable sprint double — at the London Games. Bolt goes for the 200 gold four days after winning the 100-meter crown Sunday in 9.63 seconds, the second-fastest time ever. For Wambach & Co., the momentum from a thrilling last-minute overtime victory over Canada in the semifinal on Monday could come in handy. “I’ve been hoping for this final from the moment I stepped off the podium in Germany,” Wambach said. Almost the entire American roster — save for forward Sydney Leroux — remembers that disappointing day. Everybody involved is determined to change the outcome. The world No. 1 Americans are trying to win their third straight Olympic gold medal. “It’s definitely redemption, but it’s also an opportunity,” midfielder Carli Lloyd said. “And an opportunity to show the world that we’re the No. 1 team and this game is going to be different. Every game is different. Japan’s a different team, we’re a different team, and we’re ready to bring it.”

ROUNDUP
Felix wins 200 on big track night for U.S. By Jay Cohen
U.S. men reach semis in hoops
The Associated Press
LONDON — No more heartbreak for Allyson Felix. No more silver, either. Denied twice on the world’s biggest stage, Felix won the Olympic gold medal she’s been yearning for, taking the 200 meters Wednesday night to fill the last, and biggest, hole in her otherwise stellar resume. Felix won the race in 21.88 seconds, topping Jamaica’s Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, who won the 100 four nights earlier, by .21 seconds. American Carmelita Jeter added bronze to go with her silver in the 100 meters. “I think it was all for a reason,” Felix said. “It kept me motivated and it made this moment very special. It was a big weight being lifted.” She won easily, leaving nothing to chance — or a coin flip that caused such a flap at Olympic trials — as she hugged the line around the curve, then burst ahead of Fraser-Pryce with 40 meters to go and gave coach Bobby Kersee another gold medal to celebrate. Finishing fourth was Jamaica’s Veronica CampbellBrown, who defeated Felix in the Athens and Beijing Games and was trying to become the first woman to win the same individual track and field event in three consecutive Olympics. Instead, the Americans were the ones celebrating three straight, their own 15 minutes of fame: Felix, followed quickly by Aries Merritt in the 110 hurdles and Brittney Reese in the long jump. “We are always aware of what the medal count is,” said Jason Richardson, who finished second to Merritt in the hurdles as part of a sevenmedal day at the track for the United States. “I know track and field can ... let the world know the Americans are the best track and field country.” Merritt won in 12.92 seconds. Defending champion Dayron Robles of Cuba pulled up midway through and clutched his right hamstring. Hansle Parchment of Jamaica took the bronze in 13.12. Reese, a two-time world champion, became only the second American woman to win the long jump at the Olympics, leaping 23 feet, 4½ inches (7.12 meters) on her second attempt. Jackie Joyner-Kersee gave the U.S. its other gold in 1988. Janay Deloach added a bronze, and now the Americans head into the last four days of the Olympics with 20 medals at the track — 10 away from fulfilling their “Project 30” aspirations for the London Games. Felix certainly did her part. “She’s been trying very hard for this moment,” said Jeter, who became the first U.S. woman to medal in both sprints since Florence GriffithJoyner in 1988. “When I gave her a hug, that’s exactly what I told her: ‘You’ve waited for this moment.’” Next up, Usain Bolt. The 100-meter champion

made it easily through his 200meter semifinal — grabbing a big lead, letting it slip away, then pulling away again — to set up a chance to become the first man to win both sprints in successive Olympics. His training partner, Yohan Blake, will be there, as will American Wallace Spearmon, who finished third in 2008, but had the medal taken away after officials ruled he ran outside his lane. Are Bolt and Blake beatable? “Yeah, man,” Spearmon said. “That’s why we’re racing. If they weren’t beatable, they would just hand them medals and we’d race for third.” Felix will receive her firstplace prize today at a ceremony shortly before the men’s 200, and then she’ll prepare for the relays, where she could have a spot in both the long and short races. Yes, there could be more medals in her future. But none as precious as the 200 gold. “It’s crazy,” she said. “I remember just coming over here in tears in Beijing. Gosh, just completely opposite tonight. For all of it to come together is just extremely special and I’m overjoyed.” There was even drama in preliminary heats at Olympic Stadium during the day. The crowd roared when Sarah Attar was introduced during the morning session, and she responded with a wave, a wide smile and a bit of a chuckle. This was one extraordinary 800-meter heat. Covered from head to toe, except for her smiling face poking out from her headscarf, Attar became the first woman from Saudi Arabia to compete in track and field at the Olympics when she clocked 2 minutes, 44.95 seconds in her preliminary race. “This is such a huge honor and an amazing experience, just to be representing the
women,” Attar said in an interview with The Associated Press. “I know that this can make a huge difference.” The 19-year-old Attar finished last in her heat. To her, the time wasn’t the point. Her mother is American and her father is Saudi. She has dual citizenship, was born in California and runs track at Pepperdine University near Los Angeles. Attar wanted to represent Saudi Arabia at the Olympics as a way of inspiring women. “For women in Saudi Arabia, I think this can really spark something to get more involved in sports, to become more athletic,” she said. “Maybe in the next Olympics, we can have a very strong team to come.” Making her Olympic debut three years after being forced to undergo gender tests, Caster Semenya of South Africa finished second in her 800 heat. Semenya was sidelined for nearly a year while track and field’s governing body decided whether to allow her to compete after she won the 2009 world title at age 18. She was tested and eventually cleared to return to action in 2010, then was the runner-up at last year’s world championships. Semenya carried South Africa’s flag at the opening ceremony in London and is a leading medal contender. She ran her heat in 2:00.71, behind the 2:00.47 run by Alysia Johnson Montano of the United States. The rest of the Olympic action Wednesday: V O L L E Y BALL The U.S. men’s volleyball team got off to a strong start at the London Olympics, but it’s headed home without a medal. The defending Olympic champions lost 28-26, 25-20, 25-20 to Italy in the quarterfinals. Dragan Travica and captain Cristian Savani each had four aces for Italy, which will face Brazil in Friday’s semifinals.
Russia takes on Bulgaria in the other semi. BMX Two spectacular crashes marred the start of the BMX competition, and time trial world champion Caroline Buchanan of Australia and Raymon van der Biezen of the Netherlands posted the best times of the seeding runs. On the challenging course sitting next to the London Velodrome, American rider Brooke Crain crashed in the home stretch in a section made of a succession of small jumps. She managed to get back on her bike to cross the finish line but officially was listed as not finishing. If she’s able to continue, she would be given the 16th and final seed. Crain was a late replacement on the U.S. team for Arielle Martin, who was hospitalized after a crash during a final training run on July 30 in California. SAILING The U.S. was shut out of Olympic sailing medals for the first time since 1936 when women’s match racing skipper Anna Tunnicliffe was beaten in the quarterfinals by Finland. Tunnicliffe, who was born in England and moved to the United States when she was 12, was the only remaining American with a chance for a medal. While the Americans underperformed, the Australians continued to pile up victories. The 49er crew of Nathan Outteridge and Iain Jensen sailed three laps of honor to collect the gold medal they had clinched two days earlier. BOXING Middleweight Claressa Shields dominated Kazakhstan’s Marina Volnova in the semifinals of the first Olympic women’s tournament, earning a spot in the title bout against Russia’s Nadezda Torlopova. After pounding away at the slower Volnova for most of the 29-15 fight, the 17-year-old Shields pounded her taped right fist against her own left
shoulder and screamed with joy. Shields is the last American boxer left in London after flyweight Marlen Esparza lost 10-8 to Chinese world champion Ren Cancan an hour earlier. WATER POLO The U.S. men’s team was eliminated with an 8-2 quarterfinal loss to unbeaten Croatia. The Croats jumped to a 5-0 lead by halftime with ferocious defense on one end of the pool and efficient shooting on the other. The Americans clawed back to 5-2 halfway through the third quarter. Croatia next faces Montenegro, which beat Spain 11-9 to reach its second straight Olympic semifinal. Italy plays gold medal-favorite Serbia in the other semi. CANOE SPRINT Germany’s 500-meter K-4 team lost an Olympic final for the first time since the 1992 Barcelona Games, falling to a Hungarian quartet looking to spring an upset after second-place finishes at the last three Summer Games. It also meant Hungary finished the first day of finals at the canoe sprint regatta with the upper hand over Germany in their head-to-head competition in the event’s medals table. WRESTLING Japan won a pair of women’s freestyle wrestling events, with Kaori Icho taking the 63kilogram division and Hitomi Obara finishing on top of the 48-kg category. Icho became the first Japanese woman to capture the same event in three straights Olympics. She beat Jing Ruixue of China 30, 2-0 to extend her winning streak to 72 matches. DIVING China’s Chen Ruolin led the women’s 10-meter platform preliminaries, with the teenager trying to add a gold medal in the individual event to the one she won in platform synchro. Chen totaled 392.35 points during five rounds. She is the defending champion in
LONDON — All’s fine with Kobe Bryant, and the gold medal hopes of the U.S. men’s Olympic basketball team, too. Bryant silenced his critics and broke open a tight game with six threepointers in the second half Wednesday night as the Americans advanced to the semifinals of the London Games with a 119-86 victory over Australia. On a night when LeBron James had a triple-double, the story was Bryant’s awakening from his Olympic slumber. The five-time NBA champion scored 20 points, flashing three fingers in the air after his third consecutive three-pointer in the fourth quarter had pushed the game well out of reach and proved that he would indeed deliver the kind of game expected of him in London. “I kind of knew what button to push with him. I was talking to him at halftime and in the third quarter and I guess I pushed the button. He woke up and to see that, I’ve been on the other side of the ball and had that situation before,” teammate Carmelo Anthony said. James finished with 11 points, 14 rebounds and 12 assists for the Americans, who advanced to their third straight Olympic semifinal meeting with Argentina, which beat Brazil earlier Wednesday. Deron Williams added 18 points, Anthony had 17 and Kevin Durant 14. The Americans beat the Argentines 126-97 on Monday in the final game of pool play. — The Associated Press
the individual event, and won both 10-meter titles four years ago in Beijing when she was 15. FIELD HOCKEY Argentina will meet the Netherlands in the women’s final. Argentina advanced with a 2-1 victory over Britain, and the Dutch topped New Zealand 3-1 in a penalty shootout after the teams were tied at 2 at the end of regulation. EQUESTRIAN Steve Guerdat of Switzerland, riding Nino des Buissonnets, won the gold for individual show jumping. Gerco Schroder of the Netherlands, riding London, beat Cian O’Connor of Ireland, on Blue Loyd 12, in a jump-off for silver. Part-time Sunriver resident Rich Fellers, who is also a regular at Bend’s Oregon High Desert Classics, finished in eighth place. TABLE TENNIS China completed a sweep of all four Olympic table tennis titles with a 3-0 victory over South Korea in the men’s team final. China has won 24 of 28 gold medals since the sport entered the Olympic program in 1988.

GYMNASTICS
Fierce Five ready to turn gold into green By Nancy Armour The Associated Press
LONDON — Now it’s time to turn those golds into some green. With gymnastics competition over, the Fierce Five got an idea of what life is going to be like now. The U.S. women’s gymnastics team got a sneak peek at their Corn Flakes box Wednesday — coming soon to a grocery store near you! — and Procter & Gamble Co. created an ad to congratulate them. They’re starting to hear about all the offers rolling in — hundreds for Gabby Douglas alone — and are finally beginning to realize just how big a deal they’ve become back home. “It’s definitely going to be different,” Jordyn Wieber said. “At the same time, it’s the coolest thing in the world. To be 17 years old and be able to experience all this? A lot of girls would kill to be in our spots.” The U.S. women leave London with five medals, fewest at an Olympics since 2000. But their three golds — team, allaround and floor exercise — are their most ever at an Olympics, and they got the ones that really matter: their first team title since the U.S. team known as the Magnificent Seven in
1996, and a third straight allaround champion. The medals will make these teenagers very wealthy young women, and will leave a mark on the sport long after they’ve hung up their leotards. “These girls have no idea. They’re little rock stars. And they’re going to be rock stars,” said Sheryl Shade, Douglas’ agent. The Mag Seven — Dominique Dawes, Shannon Miller and their teammates — certainly turned their team title from the Atlanta Olympics into a lot of cold, hard cash. But that was a different era, before social media and the demand for instantaneous news. Before the Internet, really. Now everything the Fierce Five does is noted, critiqued and pinged around the world in seconds. Douglas has nearly 600,000 followers on Twitter, and has gotten shoutouts from everyone from Oscar winner Octavia Spencer to Ashton Kutcher. Aly Raisman, who won two medals on the final day of competition, including the first U.S. gold on floor exercise, has jumped from 8,000 followers about six weeks ago to 350,000. As attractive as that is to traditional sponsors, it may be

even moreso to companies that target young girls and are looking for an entree into the athletic world, said David Schwab, managing director of Octagon First Call. “Previously, the only market for them was Disney actresses or musicians. They’ve opened the door to an athlete marketing space for a young girl,” said Schwab, who specializes in matching brands with celebrities. And while their time in the spotlight is over at the Olym-
pics, it’s still burning brightly and waiting for them back in the United States. They’re spending a few days next week in New York — pick a talk show, and odds are they’ll be on it — and set off Sept. 8 on a 40-city gymnastics tour. From now until Thanksgiving, they’ll be front and center with fans from coast to coast. “That will keep the conversation going and that’s the goal,” Schwab said. Adding to the team’s appeal is their versatility. Companies
can build campaigns around the whole team or a single athlete, be it Douglas, Raisman or Wieber. Kyla Ross, at 15 the youngest of the Fierce Five, is the only one who hasn’t yet turned professional. Douglas, of course, has the greatest potential for stardom. Adults want to hug her, and little girls shriek with delight at the sight of her. Her smile alone is enough to dazzle Madison Avenue, and her personality gives new meaning to the word “outsized.” She’s got an adorable nickname — “Flying Squirrel” — and an even sweeter story: She moved halfway across the country at 14 to pursue an Olympic dream. She’s also the first AfricanAmerican to win the all-around title or, for that matter, any of the individual events. That’s bound to have an impact in a sport where elite minority gymnasts have been rare — though not so much anymore. “There’s not a lot of AfricanAmericans in this sport, so I’m glad to bring it up,” Douglas said. “I want them to think, ‘If Gabby can do it, I can do it, too.’” While the Fierce Five leaves London with a fistful of medals, the U.S. men have little to take
home but bruised egos. For two years, they boasted how they had closed the gap on China and Japan, and had a real shot at winning their first team title since Bart Conner and the Golden Gang in 1984. “One team, one dream” was their motto. One medal is what they got. And not the one they wanted. After finishing qualifying in first place, the American men crumbled to fifth in the final, out of it before the competition was even halfway over. Danell Leyva’s bronze in the all-around turned out to be their only appearance on the podium. It was their worst showing since 2000. “I wouldn’t say that this Olympics was much of a disappointment. We really only had one day where we didn’t do what we wanted to do, and that was the team finals,” Leyva said. “Yeah, it (stinks) not to get medals. We set high expectations for ourselves and that’s what we need to fuel us for next time.” At some point, however, the Americans are going to have to do more than talk. Otherwise, they will always be stuck in the women’s shadow, one that is now even larger thanks to all the bling.

How did he do it? A look at how Ashton Eaton built his lead through the first five events in the decathlon on Wednesday:

EVENT NO. 1: 100 METERS
EVENT NO. 2: LONG JUMP
EVENT NO. 3: SHOT PUT
EVENT NO. 4: HIGH JUMP
EVENT NO. 5: 400 METERS
Eaton won his heat in 10.35 seconds, setting an Olympic record and edging fellow American Trey Hardee (10.42). The six top times came from Eaton’s heat.
Eaton posted the best jump by more than a foot — 26 feet, 4 1⁄4 inches — well ahead of Belgium’s Hans van Alphen (25-0 3⁄4).
The shot is not one of his best events, but Eaton posted a personal best toss of 48 feet, 1 1⁄4 inches. That was good enough for 11th out of 29 competitors.
Eaton tied for the second best jump of the day at 6 feet, 8 3⁄4 inches. Cuba’s Leonel Suarez was the only competitor to jump higher (6-11).
Eaton dominated the 400 in a time of 46.90 seconds, more than a full second ahead of the second best time (Rico Freimuth, Germany, 48.06).

Decathlon rankings
Eaton Continued from C1 Eaton, the former Mountain View High School and University of Oregon standout, won three of the five events contested on Wednesday to build a commanding 220-point lead over Trey Hardee. The two-time reigning world champion is second at 4,441 points. If they can maintain their positions, it will be the first 1-2 finish in the Olympic decathlon for the U.S. since Milt Campbell and Rafer Johnson won gold and silver at the 1956 Melbourne Games. The 24-year-old Eaton is also within reach of the Olympic record of 8,893 points set by Roman Sebrle of the Czech Republic at the 2004 Athens Olympics. In June, Eaton broke Sebrle’s world record (9,026) with 9,039 points at the U.S. Olympic Trials at Hayward Field in Eugene. “You guys keep track of the pace,” Eaton, a five-time NCAA champion for the Ducks, told reporters. “I’ll just keep trying to do my best.” So far, that’s been awfully good. Although he could not match the decathlon world records he set in the 100 and the long jump at the trials, Eaton did clock an Olympic record of 10.35 seconds to win the 100, and his mark of 26 feet, 4 1⁄4 inches in the long jump would have placed seventh at these Olympics. His only decathlon personal record of the day came in the shot put with a 48-1 1⁄4 effort. “That 48-foot shot was good for Ashton when you remember he used to throw 39 feet,” Marra said. Eaton got on a roll in the high jump with first-attempt makes on his first five heights — 6-4, 65, 6-6 1⁄4, 6-7 1⁄2 and 6-8 3⁄4 — before bowing out with three misses at 6-9 3⁄4. He closed the day with a 46.90 time in the 400, and he seemed frustrated with that time as he exited the track. At the trials, Eaton cleared the same height in the high jump despite a steady downpour, which only worsened for the 400, in which he managed to run 46.70 after a 10-minute rain delay. “It was a decent day,” Eaton said Wednesday. “I’m in good

point position. I got above the other guys. I still have really solid events tomorrow, so I’m OK with it. I think I’ve just been consistent.” It was a quick turnaround for Eaton. After a 12-hour day at the track — from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. London time — he had to show up for the 110-meter hurdles this morning at 9 o’clock (1 a.m. Pacific time). The last event of the decathlon, the 1,500, goes off tonight at 9:20 (1:20 p.m. Pacific time). “He came out of it clean and healthy,” Marra said of Eaton’s overall Wednesday performance. “He’s getting worked on right now. I anticipate a good hurdles tomorrow.” As for Hardee, he can afford
no missteps with a narrow 55point edge over Canada’s Damian Warner at 4,386. Ukraine’s Oleksiy Kasyanov (4,346) and Belgium’s Hans Van Alphen (4,342) are also in potential medal position. “We’re missing something this year,” said Hardee, who is less than a year removed from surgery on a torn elbow ligament. “I don’t know what it is. The day was littered with a bunch of pars.” Hardee’s first-day marks were as follows: 100 (10.42), long jump (24-8 1⁄2), shot put (50-1 3⁄4), high jump (6-6 1⁄4) and 400 (48.11). The 28-year-old former University of Texas star is slightly ahead of his world championship pace last summer at Daegu, South Korea, where he scored

8,607 points. “Tomorrow is going to be awesome,” he said. “I’m getting older, but I feel good. I feel strong.” As Hardee slowly walked out of the mixed zone, where athletes “mix” with the media, he was asked how important it was for the U.S. to finish 1-2 in the decathlon. “We all take care of ourselves,” he said. “If we do that, it will happen.”
Continued from C1 “We will have a team of psychologists on standby at the Sydney airport,” joked Cassandra Murnieks, a reporter at the Australian, a daily newspaper with an office in the media center here. There are dozens of ways for a country to measure itself against the world, but for a frenetic two weeks in each Olympic year, it all comes down to shiny round medallions of bronze, silver and gold. And these are minted in limited quantities, with a horde of contenders vying for each. So forget all the talk of international fellowship and the thrill of competition. For millions of onlookers, the Olympic experience is largely about the agony of watching their country come up short. Consider Spain. It earned a silver in the triathlon Tuesday and could boast of a handful of other medals. But Spanish supporters are despondent about the showing of its vaunted soccer squad, which won the last World Cup and two European championships in a row. In London, the team didn’t just fail to win a game, it failed to score. “Football, disaster,” said Rafael Garcia, who was drinking with friends Monday on a lawn in the Olympic Park. He summed up the team’s performance with what sounded like a new form manicdepressive haiku: “Three games. Zero goals. Go home.” The news media in Spain have been more expansive. El Pais, a Spanish newspaper, wrote that the team “not only fell off a cliff, it did so verging on the ridiculous against opponents of little pedigree like Japan and Honduras. A total failure.” El Mundo likened the experience to a “fearsome blow to the stomach.” A bit of salt was added to this wound by Fatima Galvez, a Spanish trap shooter, who won a gold medal at the 2011 European Championships, but could muster only a fifth-place finish in London. In part, she said, the country’s economic woes were to blame. “The crisis is very bad in Spain and we all have to tighten our belt,” she said after the event. “But with budget cuts the medals are also cut.” The Spanish Olympic Committee has been left with the difficult work of putting a positive spin on these and other results. David Suarez, a representative in the committee’s office in London, tried different tacks, including the time-tested, let’s-putthis-in-perspective approach. “In the end, this is sports,” he said, sitting on a sofa and waiting for the broadcast of a men’s diving event to begin. “Nobody has died.” He also pointed out that everyone who finishes in the top eight receives a certificate to commemorate the achievement. But it is hard to find anybody keeping a “certificate count.” In fact, for a lot of countries gold is the only medal that yields authentic glory. “Nobody in Brazil cares about second or third place,” said Fernando Keppke, a Brazilian fan, who was ruminating about Cesar Cielo, a 50-meter freestyle swimmer who earned a bronze medal a few days ago. That was considered a grave disappointment given that Cielo is the world-record holder in the event and won in Beijing four years ago. “I would not expect a hero’s welcome for him,” Keppke said. “I think his friends and family will greet him at the airport and that’s about it.” Although Australia’s athletes won a handful of gold medals in recent days, the country has racked up a fraction of the 16 earned when the games were held in Sydney in 2000, and lags well behind its pace in Beijing four years ago. This has been deemed a fiasco. After plenty of needling from the domestic news media, Swimming Australia president David Urquhart issued a statement, alerting his compatriots that he grasped the dire implications of the country’s relatively meager haul in the Olympic pool — one gold, six silver and three bronze. “This is not a time for blame and scapegoating,” he wrote, “this is an opportunity to make the changes required to rise to the international challenge.” This is also, apparently, an opportunity for the British news media to mock Australia. On Tuesday, the Independent, an English newspaper, ran a story with the headline, “Yorkshire — the county that is trouncing Australia in the Olympic medal table.” The story had a chart that read, “If Yorkshire were a country,” ranking the county 10th, with five golds, well ahead of Australia’s two at the time. Australia now has five golds and has more than double Yorkshire’s number of total medals. But you get to slice the data any way you like when it comes to international taunting. Germany has underperformed its usually high expectations thus far, but its top-10 standing in medals at the moment is hardly the catastrophe one might expect given the public gnashing, rending and weeping, as in the photos of the teary-eyed pole-vaulter Silke Spiegelburg after her fourthplace finish. “It’s not yet time to declare the end of the world,” said Joerg Hahn, a spokesman for Stiftung Deutsche Sporthilfe, a nonprofit organization based in Frankfurt that supports German Olympic athletes. Why wait? The Olympics had barely begun when on July 30, Germany’s largest circulation daily newspaper, Bild, declared on the front page: “Total Olympic False Start. Even the Kazakhs are laughing at us,” because Germany had not yet won a medal. The Kazakhs might not actually have been laughing at the Germans, but they were surely amused by a recent public relations move by the Chinese. Although China is atop the list for gold medals, it recently claimed that a couple of Kazakhstan medals were rightfully China’s. “Greedy China looks longingly at Kazakhstan’s gold medals,” read a recent headline in the Times of London. According to the paper, Xinhua, China’s state-run news agency, has said that two goldmedal-winning weightlifters from Kazakhstan hail from China. One of them, Zulfiya Chinshanlo, admitted to pining for rice cakes, which Xinhua cited as evidence of a “Chinese stomach.” As one Olympic behemoth covets a smaller country’s medals, the pipsqueaks are finding mathematical ways to make their triumphs seem more impressive. During an interview last week, a public relations representative from Slovenia pulled out a chart titled “Olympic Glory in Proportion.” It divided the country’s two medals by its total population — 2 million — and put Slovenia at No. 1 in the category of medals per capita.

GOLF: PGA CHAMPIONSHIP
FISHING REPORT
A race to get ready for the year’s last major By Doug Ferguson The Associated Press
KIAWAH ISLAND, S.C. — The final major of the year, and everyone was cramming for their last big exam. Ernie Els and Adam Scott walked up to the 18th green at Kiawah Island on Wednesday evening about the time most people in the low country would be going out for a dinner of shrimp and grits. Behind them on the Ocean Course was Ian Poulter, facing the prospect of missing out on the Ryder Cup team, and Graeme McDowell, in Sunday contention at the last two majors and hopeful the outcome at the PGA Championship will be different. The major that bills itself as “Glory’s Last Shot� felt more like a pop quiz. Rain has pounded Kiawah Island throughout the week, and it got so bad Wednesday that play was suspended because of storms before anyone teed off. It has led to limited practice time on the one course where players really need it. This is the first time South Carolina has hosted a major championship. Kiawah Island had the Ryder Cup in 1991, so long ago that Jose Maria Olazabal is the only player at the PGA Championship who played in the matches. And he’s only in the field as the European captain. McDowell, Scott and Tiger Woods were among those who came to Kiawah last week for a look at the Pete Dye design, though all of them remarked that 2 inches of rain had fallen the night before and it was soft. Not much has changed a week later. “The last couple of days have been very difficult from a preparation standpoint,� McDowell said. “The golf course has taken a lot of rain. It seems to drain extremely well, though. But there’s no doubt, this golf course is a long course, and this little bit of rain is going to make it play longer, and certainly is changing the dynamic of it as we speak.� Then, he headed out for an emergency nine, one last chance to see the stretch of holes that could determine the winner. “It’s going to be busy this afternoon,� he said. “Guys are scrambling around to get their preparation done. Thankfully, I feel like I have done enough so far.� At most majors, practice rounds are busy Monday and Tuesday, with mostly work on the practice range on the eve of the championship, perhaps nine holes in the morning. No one is sure what to expect at Kiawah, the longest course in major championship history at 7,676 yards, depending on how they set it up. The nines on the Ocean Course are divided by the clubhouse and practice range — the front nine is to the north and cuts through marshes, the back nine to the south, about a mile away from the ninth green, and featuring majestic views of the Atlantic Ocean beyond the dunes and sea oats. The course looks wide open, although typical of a Dye design, it forces players to look at trouble without realizing there’s more room
than meets the eye. The last time Kiawah was in a major spotlight — the ’91 Ryder Cup — the course was new and ragged around the edges, the wind picked up and it was pure survival. Hale Irwin had a 41 on the back nine and still won the decisive point for a U.S. victory, but only after Bernhard Langer missed a 6-foot par putt. That anguish on his face epitomized the emotions of the Ryder Cup. The question is whether it becomes a product of Kiawah Island. The hazards are plenty — 27 of the 86 acres that make up the Ocean Course are sandy areas, not to mention the water, the oppressive heat and humidity and mosquitos that do most of their damage in the morning. Darren Clarke was among those who got in a quick nine Wednesday morning, before a burst of showers. Walking off the 18th green, he wiped a small streak of blood from his wrist where he had killed a mosquito. The last time the PGA Championship was held on a course hardly anyone knew was 2004 at Whistling Straits. It was big and intimidating, another Dye design, and several players said they would be happy to take even par for the week and wait in the clubhouse. Then, Clarke opened with a 65. What to expect from Kiawah? “Without meaning to state the blind obvious,� Clarke said, “it all depends how strong the wind blows.� The gusts reached 20 mph Tuesday morning before the storms arrived, and when the course was open for play again, what little wind there was came from the opposition direction. It was stifling Wednesday afternoon, with not much of a breeze. “There are still shots to be hit,� Clarke said. “Guys will shoot some scores. The wind only needs to pick up to 10 mph and it changes completely. We shall see. It looks like a course that says, ‘Come on and play golf. Come feel it. Hit it high, high it low.’ It looks like fun to me. And if the wind blows, it’s more fun. You’ve got to have a challenge. You’ve got to ask questions of yourself, and have fun doing it.� As the season’s last major, it’s not all fun. Woods is trying to avoid going a fourth consecutive year without a major. He has been close in the past two, at least for a while. He was co-leader through 36 holes at Olympic Club, then tumbled out of the top 20 on the weekend. He was in the penultimate group at the British Open, only for his hopes to die while squatting on the precipice of a pot bunker on his way to a triple bogey on the sixth hole. He says he is a fan of Pete Dye courses, though Whistling Straits was never terribly kind to him. “Pete will give you a couple easy holes, and then he’ll just hammer you with a few hard ones,� Woods said. “Then he’ll give you a break, and it’s kind of the ebb and flow of most of Pete’s designs. ... This is a golf course where it’s going to test our short games a lot. The guy who can chip and putt really well this week is going to have a great chance.�

Summer steelhead angling is good on Deschutes 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:
Gary Lewis / For The Bulletin
A mule deer eats in the weeds. Broadleaf plants make up about 22 percent of a mule deer’s diet.
Bucks Continued from C1 It was in the next clearing, a half mile up the road, where I selected another tree. Deep in a tangle of vine maple and head-high browse, we found beds worn deep in the ground. Bucks had bedded here for generations. In the tree down the slope, I would be perched over the nearest feeding area. Here, my back would be to the setting sun with windows into small openings visible out to 100 yards. In the foreground, deer trails wound through the browse, and where new growth had sprouted it had been trimmed back by ungulate premolars. Back home, inside the box that held a new Ameristep Champ hang-on tree stand, there was a safety DVD and instructions. After an hour of study, I shrugged into the safety harness then went out to practice in the front yard. The ideal tree is about 20 inches in diameter. For practice, I chose one somewhat bigger than that and strapped on my first set of Rapid Rails, a step system made from lightweight aluminum that secures to the tree with a nylon
strap. With each section, I was able to gain about four feet of elevation on the tree. When, after much exertion, I was able to get my tree stand above the ground, I sat there and contemplated this frail existence. With four or five sections in place, I should be able to hang the stand about 15 to 18 feet off the ground. I am not fearful of heights and the fall doesn’t worry me, but I am afraid of the sudden stop at the bottom. Perhaps even worse could be a quick stop between treetop and terra firma. The instructions say, “Never allow the tether strap to get under your chin or around your neck.� Sounds like good advice. Archery hunters get the first crack at deer with the Aug. 25 season opener. Controlled and general season rifle hunts start on Sept. 29. Now is the time to scout for deer in the desert and on the mountains with maps and aerial photos in hand. Much of the scouting may be done from home, but there is no substitute for walking the land and glassing good deer habitat from afar. Pay special attention to water holes in this warm weather
and look for the tracks that give the big ones away. Bring a tape measure. In blacktail habitat, watch for tracks that measure 2 3⠄4 inches or more. For mule deer, look for tracks that measure 2 7⠄8 inches or more. If you find one that measures upward of 3 1⠄4 inches, you are in the presence of mule deer greatness. In warm weather, most deer do not travel more than a halfmile from their principal water supply. Look for places where deer find the twiggy browse and forbs they need to survive and then identify bedding areas, perhaps two-thirds of the way up a hill, where a buck can watch for danger and catch the wind from below. Before the season starts, use the binocular more than your boots. Stay in the shadows and probe with a spotting scope. When a deer is spotted, look for more. If there is a small buck, watch for the bigger one. He is there. Believe it. — Gary Lewis is the host of “Adventure Journal� and author of “John Nosler — Going Ballistic,� “Black Bear Hunting,� “Hunting Oregon� and other titles. Contact Lewis at www.

FLY-TYING CORNER From Memorial Day to the first of July and then again in September, an angler should be ready to match a hatch of green drakes. Watch for these big mayflies on the surface between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m. Overcast days are best, but green drakes may appear on sunny days as well. Perin’s Green Drake Parachute, with its dark wings and sparkling body, has contrast and profile suggestive of the natural. Jeff Perin, owner of the Fly Fisher’s Place in Sisters, suggests that Nos. 8-10 are most useful in the spring and Nos. 10-14 in the fall. For extra allure, run a small No. 14 emerger as a dropper from the bend of the hook. Tie this pattern on a No. 8-14 dry-fly hook. For the tail, use dark elk hair. Build the body with green Ice Dub and rib with brown 3/0 thread. For the wingpost, use black calf tail, green Antron and green Krystal

ANTELOPE FLAT RESERVOIR: No recent reports but we expect fishing to be slower with the warm weather. Boat anglers will most likely be more successful than bank anglers. BEND PINE NURSERY POND: The pond has been stocked with rainbow trout. BIG LAVA LAKE: Fishing is good. CLEAR LAKE RESERVOIR: Water levels in reservoir will be dropping as irrigation demand increases. Trout fishing should remain good, as long as reservoir permits good access. CRANE PRAIRIE RESERVOIR: High temperatures will likely push trout into the old river channels. 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 in the lower 25 miles of the Deschutes is good and should only get better as August progresses. Anglers are also reminded that the river opens Aug. 1 to the harvest of fall chinook. EAST LAKE: 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 should be great right now. Fishing for kokanee has slowed a bit, but anglers are still catching good numbers of fish. Kokanee are averaging about 10 to 11 inches long. METOLIUS RIVER: Trout fishing has been good. Insect hatches should offer lots of opportunities for good dry-fly fishing. 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. WALTON LAKE: Fishing has been good, with the best fishing occurring during the cooler times of the day and near the springs. WICKIUP RESERVOIR: Fishing is good with opportunities for large kokanee.

Intern can’t sue Chimps Inc.
LOCAL BRIEFING Man accused of firing at teens
• Court finds no negligence, says signed waiver of liability will stand
A Crook County man was arrested on weapons and assault charges Tuesday after allegedly firing a shotgun at three teenagers who were hunting rabbits near the Prineville Reservoir. Jerry Strode, 38, reportedly fired several shots at the teens as they fled on foot and later threatened their family members at his home, the Crook County Sheriff’s Office said. It appears alcohol was a factor in the incident, the Sheriff’s Office said. Undersheriff John Gautney said Strode thought the teens were poaching deer, drove down to where they were hunting and began firing.

A college student who lost most of her thumb when she was attacked by a chimpanzee at Chimps Inc. near Bend four years ago may not proceed with a lawsuit against the sanctuary, the Oregon Court of Appeals ruled Wednesday. The court’s ruling maintains a waiver of liability signed by Chimps Inc. intern Kristen Howard is binding, upholding a prior ruling by Deschutes County Circuit Court Judge Michael Adler. Howard was attacked 10 days into her internship when a chimpanzee named Kimie
came through an unlocked tunnel connected to a cage Howard and another intern were cleaning, jumped on Howard’s back and bit her repeatedly. As Howard attempted to escape to interns’ housing and sanctuary staff attempted to locate and restrain Kimie, the chimpanzee found Howard and jumped on her a second time. Howard subsequently filed suit against Chimps Inc. for $828,000. Howard argued Chimps Inc. had failed to abide by state laws to protect the public against the health and safety risks posed by exotic animals,
and maintained the sanctuary had not been clear about the risks she could encounter at Chimps Inc. prior to her signing the waiver of liability. Chimps Inc. had failed to disclose past injuries incurred by workers or volunteers at the sanctuary, Howard argued, including an incident in which a chimpanzee pulled a caregiver’s arm through a door, pulling off her skin between her elbow and her wrist, and two incidents in which all or part of a finger or thumb was bitten off by a chimpanzee. A year after Howard was injured, another sanctuary caregiver lost the tip of her thumb.
The court ruling includes excerpts from a nondisclosure agreement interns are required to sign before working at Chimps Inc., which bars them from discussing the “inner workings” of the sanctuary, and a training manual permitting only Chimps Inc. President Lesley Day, the executive manager and the ranch manager to call 911, and then only in life-threatening situations. Day acknowledged to the court that the restriction on calls to 911 was intended to avoid scrutiny over safety concerns, and on the day Howard was injured, Day approached her and said “Who called 911? It’s just your thumb.” See Chimps / D2

An osprey brings a portion of a largemouth bass back to its nest a another looks over the edge near the intersection of Dodds Road and Highway 20 Wednesday afternoon. According to Nationalgeographic.com it is common for the birds to build large stick-and-sod nests on telephone poles, channel markers, and other such locations near the water. Most ospreys are migratory birds that breed in the north and migrate south for the winter and commonly lay three eggs, which both parents help to incubate.

Dispatch for 911 services moving By Joel Aschbrenner The Bulletin
MADRAS — Jefferson County law enforcement officials are gearing up to move 911 dispatch services to a three-county call center in Condon. The county’s commissioners Wednesday approved the purchase of $93,027 worth of equipment needed to connect police, fire and ambulance radios with Tri-Com, the dispatch center that serves Gilliam, Wheeler and Sherman counties. Sheriff Jim Adkins said he plans to close the local dispatch center and transfer 911 services to TriCom by October. The consolidation is a cost-saving move aimed at reducing overhead and sharing resources. Just how much it would save is yet to be seen as the contract is still in the works, Adkins said. Growing salaries and other personnel costs are driving up the cost of operating Jefferson County’s dispatch center. Those costs would be passed on to user agencies, like the Madras Police Department and Jefferson County Fire District No. 1, and could be the difference between keeping an officer or a paramedic, Adkins said. Consolidation also would provide more call coverage, Adkins said. Currently, there is often one dispatcher on duty to cover all of Jefferson County. With Tri-Com, two or three dispatchers would be on duty at least 20 hours a day to take 911 calls from the four counties. See Dispatch / D2

A small fire that closed a stretch of Tumalo Reservoir Road on Wednesday afternoon was brought under control with multiple water drops by a helicopter filling up at the reservoir less than a quartermile away. As of Wednesday night, the Central Oregon Interagency Dispatch Center had incomplete information about the Rock Springs Fire, and was unable to provide an estimate of its size, but the Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office put the size of the fire at one-third of an acre.

Skyliners Road to see traffic improvements next year By Holly Pablo The Bulletin
Correction
Alex McDougall / The Bulletin
Fire crews work to clear any hot spots left over from a fire adjacent to Tumalo Reservoir Road. Investigators had not determined a cause but believed it was human-caused.
Valerie Reed, assistant manager at COIDC, said investigators believe the fire was ignited by the muffler on a passing vehicle. A handful of structures were potentially threatened, she said, but crews had the fire tamped down and not moving within half an hour of their arrival. Meanwhile, the Geneva 12 Fire southwest of Lake Billy Chinook was at 80 percent containment Wednesday night. Fire spokesman Bill Queen said 300 firefighters were on the fire late Wednesday. Fire lines around the perimeter of Geneva 12 were not threatened, and fire managers were anticipating releasing some firefighters and declaring full containment today.
Homeowners along Skyliners Road will soon find out what their new road will look like. It will include two islands to slow traffic, a 6-foot-wide bike lane and vehicle lanes narrowed to 10 feet. The work on the highway from the western limits of Bend to Forest Service Road 4603 will begin next year. On Wednesday, the Deschutes County Commission got an update from George Kolb, the county’s engineer.
The Federal Highway Administration’s planning process is nearly complete. Homeowners in the Skyliners subdivision, who have long voiced concerns about the road’s future, can soon expect notices of the construction decisions in their mailboxes, Kolb said. Residents asked for speed reduction, signage, narrower travel lanes and consideration of off-street parking, according to a summary from a June 25 homeowners meeting. Speed control is the larg-

speed zone. There will be portable traffic barricades that can be removed for snow plowing, Kolb said, and signs with LED lighting will alert motorists and bicyclists of the islands and speed limits. See Road / D2

The discussion was part of a Wednesday work session with the board. “I just need some clear direction on what types of things would prompt us to respond,” McIntosh said. “My heart says I’d rather be proactive in expressing our message, whatever that is, rather than reactive and defensive.” Board Chairwoman Cathy Miller said she prefers not to use the word “respond” because that makes it sound like the district is in a “defensive position.” “To me, it’s a bigger question about our communications and how do we communicate the integrity of our decision-making process if not all the information is out there,” Miller said. Board members also said that there are legal constraints in certain cases that can impact communication in some cases. See Redmond / D2

Redmond Continued from D1 For the district, that was the board’s justification for not fully informing the public about the reason for the firing of former Redmond High School Principal Brian Lemos in October 2011. The district said he was terminated for misconduct and performance issues without going into more detail. Lemos went on to file a federal lawsuit against the school district that recently resulted in a $65,000 offer of judgment from the district. That issue wasn’t specifically mentioned at the meeting, though board member Richard Little said it’s disappointing for the district to be “blasted by the media.� Little said it’s important to be proactive while also staying within legal boundaries.
Chimps Continued from D1 However, the Court of Appeals agreed with the findings of Judge Adler, ruling that neither the sanctuary’s tendency toward secrecy nor the history of prior incidents at the sanctuary was sufficient to demonstrate gross negligence on the part of Chimps Inc.
Road Continued from D1 There are no plans to landscape the islands because it may distract drivers. “One of the stated purposes of this project is to improve safety for the road users by reducing conflicts between bicyclists and motorists,� Michael Odom, the Federal Highway Administration project manager, wrote to Kolb. “We acknowledge that the speed reduction through the subdivision is an important goal for the project and have modified

Group questions insurance rate hike SALEM — A consumer group says Regence BlueCross BlueShield of Oregon hasn’t justified its proposal to raise rates for 52,000 people who buy health insurance in the individual market rather than through an employer. The Oregon State Public Interest Research Group Foundation released its analysis Wednesday. The organization has a contract with state insurance regulators to analyze proposed rate hikes. Regence wants to raise premiums by 9.6 percent, saying its medical and prescription drug costs will increase at an annual rate of 10.1 percent. The consumer group says Regence has not provided enough information to back up its projections for cost growth. The Oregon Insurance Division has the final say over how much Regence can raise premiums. Last year, regulators approved a 13 percent hike after Regence requested 22 percent.
Troutdale mayor refuses to resign TROUTDALE — Troutdale Mayor Jim Kight refused to resign Tuesday night after council members urged him to step down for building a structure on his property that shouldn’t have been allowed. Council members say Kight manipulated the city’s building code and permitting process to build a second house with a basement, which is not permitted in a flood plain. KATU reports Kight says the structure is not a home; it’s an office with a crawl space. He says the controversy is politically motivated. He’s seeking reelection and Council President Doug Daoust has filed to run for mayor. Daoust has asked Kight to step down as mayor for the good of Troutdale. Kight says he used no undue influence to have an office built next door to his home.
Pregnancy class staying in Salem SALEM — The SalemKeizer School District announced Tuesday it will stick with its teen pregnancy prevention class, despite a parent’s objection to the involvement of Planned Parenthood. Superintendent Sandy Husk says it’s an excellent program. She says a suggestion that teachers teach the program instead of Planned Parenthood is unworkable because of the time demands for community service projects. The parent who complained, Doug Muravez, told the Statesman Journal it appears district officials didn’t work with him in good faith.

Rudy Crew, chief education officer of Oregon and former head of schools in New York City, speaks in May at Earl Boyles Elementary School in Portland. Crew says schools are aiming too low as they set goals central to Gov. John Kitzhaber’s efforts to get better results from students.
State education chief: Schools should aim higher with goals The Associated Press PORTLAND — Many Oregon schools are aiming too low in a goal-setting exercise central to the governor’s efforts to get better results from students, the state’s new education leader said. The assertion by Chief Education Officer Rudy Crew came as the state’s 197 school districts submit their first achievement plans this summer. He said school boards and administrators will be asked to aim higher. A review of plans from 25 of the largest districts showed most expect performance measurements to be flat or up by a percentage point, The Oregonian reported Wednesday. A few expect to do worse. Crew said he was seeing the same pattern in a cursory review of nearly all the plans and was not pleased. Goals that forecast stagnant or declining outcomes are unacceptable and evidence of a lack of leadership, he said. “I am going to be asking them to step up to a plate that is more aggressive and more thoughtful,” he said. Gov. John Kitzhaber named Crew as chief education officer in May. It’s a new post with authority over preschool through college, part of the governor’s ambitious plan to remake public education. The achievement plans declare how many students schools aim to get to key milestones next year. School districts have eight areas to set goals: third-grade reading and math achievement, sixth-grade attendance, freshman course success, attainment of college credits while in high school, four- and five-year graduation rates, and college-going rates. State school leaders say there’s good reason for their modest goals. “Class sizes are rising, and supports are going away,” said Craig Hawkins, executive director of the Confederation of School Administrators.
“I buy the notion that we need more resources. But the fact of the matter is, it is going to be a measure of one’s leadership as to how well you are able to at least begin and start moving in the direction.” — Rudy Crew, Oregon’s chief education officer
With incomplete data for this year and in some cases last year, districts felt as if they were asked to shoot in the dark, he said. But, he added, “we will end up working this out.” In the Gladstone district, the goals have third-grade test scores increasing, graduation rates remaining flat and college-going rates falling. “The district is fully committed to ... use innovative practices to increase student achievement” but wants the state to show it is equally committed to making a break from funding as usual, Superintendent Bob Stewart wrote in a statement submitted with his district’s compact. Crew said he doesn’t know why district leaders set low targets. Some may have been playing it safe, “with the expectation and hope that if they get something greater, then they can crow about it,” he said. Or the goals might reflect what’s realistically expected, he said. Either way, Crew expects to ask many districts to raise their targets before he will sign off on their compacts. “I buy the notion that we need more resources,” he said. “But the fact of the matter is, it is going to be a measure of one’s leadership as to how well you are able to at least begin and start moving in the direction.”
MEDFORD — Denying prosecution suggestions he had any intention of shooting up a high school football game, an Oregon man pleaded guilty Wednesday to federal charges he had a gun on school grounds and was a marijuana user in possession of firearms. U.S. District Judge Owen Panner agreed, releasing 27-year-old selfemployed handyman Raphael Amoroso of Grants Pass from jail until he returns to court for sentencing Oct 29. He faces a likely sentence of more than two years in federal prison, plus three years of supervision after his release, and orders never to possess any guns again. He has spent the past 10 months in jail awaiting trial. Referring to the recent shooting attacks on a movie theater in Colorado and a Sikh temple in Wisconsin, Panner said, “I don’t believe you fall into the pattern that so many people have created. “You didn’t do anything violent, and I don’t believe you will do again.” Amoroso was arrested last October after approaching a police officer outside Grants Pass High School, where a football game had been played a few hours earlier. He told the officer he had a gun and marijuana in his car, and had been at the high school checking on his senior project, a bike rack.
He was initially arrested on charges of driving under the influence of alcohol and marijuana and released. A search of his car turned up marijuana, a loaded .45-caliber automatic pistol, 200 rounds of rifle ammunition, binoculars, a camouflage jacket and the novel “Enemies Foreign and Domestic,” a favorite with gun enthusiasts. It tells the story of a rogue federal agent who plots a sniper attack on a professional football game to bring about a ban on semiautomatic rifles. A week later, police searched the home Amoroso shared with his mother and found seven more guns, mostly vintage military rifles, as well as sniper gear — a camouflage sniper’s suit, sniper manuals, a ballistic helmet and 2,000 rounds of rifle ammunition. Authorities also found a printout from a website about picking what kind of terrorist to be, a note about combining chemicals to produce an explosive, armorpiercing bullet tips, a bulletproof vest, and an inch-thick piece of steel with an armorpiercing bullet stuck in it. “On the night in question, I had no plans nor ever had any unusual thoughts in regard to violence,” Amoroso read from a handwritten note after pleading guilty. Prosecutor Judith Harper argued Amoroso should re-
main behind bars. She said it was hard to take seriously the recommendations of two psychologists that Amoroso presents a low risk of violence if he is released, since he has never received the psychological or drug treatment recommended since high school. He scrawled a note on a school desk saying he wanted to shoot teachers, and fired a pellet gun that wounded a passenger on a passing tour boat on the Rogue River. She added that Amoroso was diagnosed as being narcissistic and obsessivecompulsive, with histrionic seizures, which made it difficult for him to relate to other people. Standing straight in a gray jail jumpsuit, his hands free but clasped behind his back, Amoroso repeated the word, “Guilty,” twice in answer to the two counts in the indictment. He asked for his release in order to begin treatment, which has not been available in jail. After the hearing, he was handcuffed and taken back to custody. Defense lawyer Larry Roloff said he would be released later in the day.

Southern Oregon wildfires closer to being controlled The Associated Press PORTLAND — Firefighters said Wednesday they’re making headway against most of the fires in a Southern Oregon wilderness area where restrictions against mechanized equipment have been lifted to allow helicopters and chain saws. But one of the small fires was giving crews problems because of steep terrain and combustible vegetation such as “decadent manzanitas,” overgrown shrubby trees with a lot of dead branches, said a U.S. Forest Service spokesman, Paul Galloway. Firefighters are using helicopters to ferry water, supplies and fire crews into the Red Buttes Wilderness Area along the California-Oregon bor-
der, and chain saws for such chores as cutting trees that, if burned, could fall across a fire containment line and spread the flames. Usually, mechanized equipment, even bicycles, is forbidden in areas designated under federal law as wilderness. But the restrictions can be lifted for firefighting, and the Forest Service did so Tuesday in the Red Buttes area southwest of Medford. Citing dry conditions, the agency said it was trying to keep costs down and the fire from escaping. Wednesday morning, crews said two of the six fires were out, crews had drawn containment lines around a third, and they expected to do the same for a fourth by day’s end.

udy Crew isn’t interested in excuses. Oregon’s new chief education officer says he won’t sign off on achievement compacts that don’t set higher goals.
We’d like to call that a breath of fresh air. We’re tired of the excuses about educational achievement, too. In this case, though, the excuses are about an odd and rushed bureaucratic process, not about student achievement. If fact, the state-mandated categories in the achievement compacts have little to do with academic achievement, including only two such measures among dozens of categories. Crew came to town long after most of the work was done for this first year of the compacts, which are agreements between education entities and the state, setting goals for the 2012-13 school year. He said he agrees with some of the reasons given for the modest goals set by many districts, such as lack of resources. But he thinks leadership can overcome them, saying, â€œâ€Ś the fact of the matter is, it is going to be a measure of one’s leadership as to how well you are able to at least begin and start moving in the direction,â€? according to The Oregonian. An Oregonian analysis of the
compacts from 25 of the state’s largest districts showed the districts forecast modest increases at best, and in some categories static or declining results. Crew said he’d seen a similar trend in a cursory review of the rest of the state’s 197 districts. The Bend-La Pine school district, which was included in the Oregonian study, didn’t predict any declining results, but also didn’t predict improvement in several categories. We couldn’t reach anyone at the district to respond to Crew’s complaint, but Superintendent Ron Wilkinson had earlier told us the district used a calculator devised by some of the state’s larger districts. He said in many cases data was unavailable to allow districts to make realistic estimates in this first year of the compacts. To BendLa Pine’s credit, it used its local-option categories to add several academic measures to its compact. We’re fully in favor of pushing schools to increase standards. We’re not in favor of beating them up for reasonable responses to a rushed and incomplete process.
Bend park district finds a partial solution
T
he Bend Park & Recreation District passed a resolution Tuesday that enables the district director to exempt certain facilities from having to pay system development charges, or SDCs. Alzheimer’s patients and people in hospice care arguably don’t use parks or park facilities. Under the policy change, a new development serving those patients could apply to the park district for an exemption. There’s nothing wrong with that approach, if SDCs are going to be collected. But it exposes just another one of the many nagging problems of SDCs. SDCs are collected by the park district when a new residence is built. The idea is that new residences means a need for new parks, trails and recreation. The park district collects the fees for new homes, new multifamily dwellings and also for hotel/motel guest rooms. The park district’s new resolution is trying to account for developments such as Touchmark’s planned expansion in southwest Bend. Touchmark announced a few months ago that it planned to add a memory-care facility. It would provide secure housing and care for
people who have Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia. Should that development have to pay park SDCs? Other government entities across the country do have similar exemptions, so it’s not like Bend parks is all alone. But if some facilities arguably should pay nothing, couldn’t an argument be made that other facilities should pay less? Think about nursing homes. Couldn’t it be reasonably argued their residents put less wear and tear on parks than residents in other multifamily dwellings? Where is their discount? SDCs are also a hidden tax. Yes, the park district must approve its SDC methodology and fee levels in open meetings. But SDCs don’t show up as a line-item when you pay your bills. They are buried in the cost of the mortgage. Remember a few years ago when Bend residents approved the $119 million construction bond for schools? We doubt many realized at least $1.2 million would be going to pay SDCs to the city. Better taxes, if there is such a critter, are ones that are clearly visible to the payers and not hidden.
My Nickel’s Worth Council needs keener business minds On Aug. 1, I watched the Bend City Council promote giving away perhaps more than $500,000 to the River’s Edge Development Co. The existing development agreement with “River’s Edge will expire Sept. 13 with no option to extend it. The Purcell Family is asking for an extension of the agreement in order to develop a minimum of $50 million of buildings over the next 15 years. Without an extension by the city, they can’t continue to build.� In more than 35 years of commercial real estate experience, I’ve never seen such a powerful negotiating position. So what is our council charging the Purcells to build the $50 million project, plus get paid for their overhead and potentially mortgage, sales and leasing commissions? NOTHING. They’re giving away 15 years of development rights for the cost of sewers that the developers would probably have to make anyway. Bend is no longer a small town with issues that can be absorbed and understood by part-time politicians getting paid less than high school kids working at McDonald’s. Bend has a tremendous amount of intellectual capital that would be willing to run for elected office with a paycheck of $75,000 (to pick a number) per year. Assuming seven elected positions at $75,000/ year, that would cost each of Bend’s 80,000 residents just under $7.20 per year. On Aug. 1, I accused the council members of a “gross miscarriage of fiscal responsibility to Bend’s
residents.� All I got back were blank faces that need to be replaced by competent business minds. Ron Fishman Bend
Letter doesn’t stand up to fact checking After reading Ed Kimball’s Aug. 4 letter, “Health care reforms increase seniors’ burden,â€? I became both alarmed and curious. Kimball’s letter stated that a senior’s Medicare monthly contribution would jump from just over $100 today to $247 in 2014. It took only five minutes to do some online research and I discovered that chain email has been circulating for a couple of years, incorrectly claiming that Medicare Part B premiums would increase dramatically in future years because of the new health care law. Some details: • “A year ago we also took on a completely fabricated claim that the new health care law would cause monthly Medicare premiums to more than double, to $247, in 2014. That’s not remotely close to the truth. Medicare officials currently predict the actual figure will be $112.10.â€? (FactCheck.org) • “The email’s projection for 2014 seems entirely fabricated. The health care law leaves in place the long-established methods for calculating Medicare Part B premiums.â€? (PolitiFact.com) • “A mass email making this claim has been circulating since before the 2010 elections. But it’s just another attempt to scare older Americans and has no basis in
fact.� (AARP.org) I believe that a little research should be conducted before a person passes along potentially alarming “facts� to friends, neighbors and fellow citizens. To strive for accuracy is an act of respect. To do less is simply irresponsible. Could not this newspaper have taken five minutes to do some responsible fact-checking before printing yet another antiObama screed? Diana Roberts Prineville
Recognize society’s collective benefits Al Phillips complains in an Aug. 6 letter that Obama said a business owner “didn’t build� his business. I, like Al, have built and run my own business for more than 25 years. Unlike Al, I recognize the collective effort and contribution that made it possible. The schools that I and my employees attended, the roads we and our goods traveled on, the police that helped create law and order, and the fire department that responded when my warehouse caught fire, not to mention the armed forces which defend our country, are but a few of the things the government helps provides that make building a business possible. Sure, it was a tremendous amount of hours and hard work to create a successful enterprise. But anyone who believes that they created a business out of thin air, without the benefits provided by our stable, prosperous society, is fooling themselves. Ethan Singer Bend

Neither party has done its part to fix national debt By Roy Fullerton Phyllis Greenbach and her fellow letter writers to The Bulletin’s editorial pages like to quote Ronald Reagan and profess their Republican roots, only to dismiss the minority party as obstructing forward progress by “engaging in destructive politics.� The letters read like a partisan writing campaign and reminds one of the old Latin proverb, “under a sheep’s skin often hides a wolfish mind.� Greenbach blames Republican leadership for having no plan or willingness to work with the president to move the nation forward. Let’s be honest: Democrats owned the presidency, the House, and a filibuster-proof Senate for two years. What “pranks, false arguments and bullying� could Greenbach be alluding to in her letter? Democrats had no opposition to their spending programs or any legislation they wanted to pass. Enough of the partisan fingerpointing! Our country has lost its
IN MY VIEW way. George Bush started the downward trend with two unfunded wars and an unfunded prescription drug benefit. Republicans held the presidency and both houses for six years and made little effort to control spending or rein in entitlements. Now we have a president whose accomplishments include a trilliondollar stimulus that hasn’t stimulated the economy, a $1.8 trillion health reform bill that puts the government in charge of your health care, and an economy that has 23 million people out of work, underemployed, or who have given up looking. Not a single member of Congress, Democrat or Republican, voted for President Obama’s last two budgets — a repudiation of his leadership. Our economy is in a free fall and President Obama has no answers, other than to blame his predecessor. Take a minute to review the Na-
tional Debt Clock at (http://usdebt clock.org/index.html), a nonaffiliated, nonpartisan effort to inform citizens of the financial condition of the United States. As a nation, we have a total U.S. debt of $16,000,000,000,000. Yes, 16 trillion dollars. Over time, these are expenditures approved by Congress and the president to meet our nation’s day-to-day obligations. Add in unfunded entitlement liabilities (Medicare, prescription drug and Social Security) of $120 trillion and your family’s share of the national debt becomes $1.6 million dollars. We’ve dug a hole so deep that confiscating all the assets of our citizens and businesses would barely retire half of this nation’s debt obligations. Printing money or continuing to borrow replaces the National Debt Clock with a Doomsday Clock. The only path out of this is leadership by those who represent “We the People.� We don’t need a president who declares “Mission Accom-
Regardless of the political consequences, we need a president and Congress that are willing to roll up their sleeves and rise above demagoguery to find solutions that work within our constitutional limits — yes, that includes reining in entitlements and reforming the tax code. plished� or “Brownie, you’re doing a good job.� Neither do we need a president who lacks basic economic competence and whose false rhetoric of “Hope and Change,� “New Civility,� “Uniter, rather than divider� or “You didn’t build that� has polarized this nation. Regardless of the political consequences, we need a president and Congress that are willing to roll up their sleeves and rise above demagoguery to find solutions that work within our constitutional limits — yes, that includes reining in entitlements and reforming the tax code. As Thomas Jefferson noted: “I
predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.� It’s time to move beyond the establishment class who wish to impose its will on “We the People� by government fiat. The Founding Fathers got it right in the beginning — free markets that reward success, individual responsibility, limited government and entrepreneurial optimism. That is what made us a great nation. It is, as Greenbach wrote, time “to move forward.� — Roy Fullerton lives in Bend.

John Meyers, Bend resident, passed away in his sleep at St. Charles Hospital the morning of August 6, 2012. He was 77 years old. He battled long and hard with a slow growing cancer, only to pass into the Glory of God with a very tired body after over 3 months of hospitalJohn Meyers ization, never getting to return to his physical home he so missed, but the Lord called him Home and John answered the call. He is loved by so many that follow within this obituary. John was born August 11, 1934, in St. Louis, Missouri, the third child of Stanley and Dorothy Meyers. His parents and brother have predeceased him. John spent his early childhood in Missouri and when he was nine years old the family moved to Portland, Oregon. In Portland, he attended Woodmere Elementary School and graduated from Franklin High School in 1952. He enlisted in the U.S. Army in December, 1952, and served slightly over two years in Germany; as a secretary to the Commander, (he was the only one in the fox holes that could type!) He had good duty. Then he returned to Portland in early 1955, attending college there. In 1958, he married Charlotte Brown and from this union, two daughters. Surviving John are his daughters, Marci Ruppee (husband, Peter), granddaughter, Angele and grandson, Justin and Shelby Liefke (husband, Tim): also step-children by John's second wife, Judy: Roxanne Cheney (husband, Jim) Scott L. Mastrud (wife, Anna) and Cameron Mastrud (wife, Angie; and eight step grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren. Also surviving is his sister, Harriett Heisey (husband, Bob), two nieces and a nephew living in Portland.

Founder of the Jodrell Bank Observatory Sir Bernard Lovell addresses guests in 2007 at an event on the 50th anniversary of space travel, in Macclesfield, England. Pioneering British physicist and astronomer Bernard Lovell died Monday at 98.
Physicist Lovell proposed huge radio telescope By Don R. Hecker New York Times News Service
Sir Bernard Lovell, a pioneer in radar and radio telescopes from the days when the technology helped save Britain in World War II until the beginning of the Space Age, died Monday at his home in Swettenham Village, England. He was 98. His son, Bryan, confirmed the death. Lovell, who became widely known through his books, lectures and BBC television appearances, was especially renowned for creating the Jodrell Bank radio telescope, the only antenna that could track rockets in space in the early years of the space race between the United States and the Soviet Union. Lovell, who was knighted in 1961, was also the founder and until 1980 the director of what is now the Jodrell Bank Center for Astrophysics, near Manchester. The center’s 250-footwide white dish, mounted on latticework steel towers standing high in the English countryside, is today the third-largest steerable radio telescope in the world. (The largest is the Robert C. Byrd Green Bank Telescope in West Virginia, followed by the Max Planck Institute’s in Germany.) On Oct. 4, 1957 — just two months after the Jodrell Bank telescope began operating — the Soviets launched Sputnik atop an R-7 rocket that had been designed to deliver a nuclear warhead, and Western officials turned to Lovell and his telescope to track it. Sputnik emitted a radio signal that made it easy to follow, but only Lovell’s radio telescope could track the rocket that put Sputnik into orbit. When the battery in Sputnik that powered the radio signal ran out after 22 days, even the Soviets had to turn to Jodrell Bank for help in tracking it as it finished its three months of orbiting before falling back to Earth. As the United States and the Soviet Union competed in the race that ultimately led to the Moon, the Jodrell Bank antenna’s unique ability to track objects in space made Lovell an independent observer of each side’s claims to success. In 1958, the U.S. Air Force asked that the Jodrell Bank track a U.S. attempt to launch a rocket to the Moon, and by that autumn NASA had contracted with the Jodrell Bank to provide tracking. In 1963 Lovell, because of his pre-eminence, became the first Westerner invited to the Soviets’ deep space tracking base in the Crimea. During World War II, Lovell led a team of scientists in developing a British airborne radar, H2S, to guide bombers to their targets. Alfred Charles Bernard Lovell was born on Aug. 31, 1913, in Oldland Common, near Bristol, England, the son of Gilbert and Laura Lovell. He later recalled a youthful trip to a science exhibition at which he saw “great sparks ripping across the lecture hall.� On a walk home, “for the first time,
I looked up at the stars and wondered what they were.� Lovell received a bachelor of science degree in 1934 and a doctorate in 1936, both from the University of Bristol. The year he received his doctorate he was also appointed an assistant lecturer in physics at Manchester University, with which he was to be associated throughout his career. He became a fellow of the Royal Society in 1955. As early as 1941, while still focusing on radar’s uses in the war, Lovell and his mentor, Patrick M.S. Blackett, winner of the 1948 Nobel Prize in Physics, had published a paper titled “Radio Echoes and Cosmic Ray Showers.� U.S. scientists in the 1930s had built radio telescopes, which can study objects in space through the radio waves they give off or by bouncing signals off bodies like the Moon to determine exact distances and locations, and had begun to lay out some procedures for exploring space. In 1945, Lovell returned to Manchester University with a trove of surplus military radar equipment, which he set up there. But electric trams running nearby produced overpowering interference, and he moved to property the university had bought before the war from the Jodrell family. The land included a high spot, or “bank,� and thus the telescope outpost acquired its name. With his scrap-market materials, Lovell tracked meteors, but in the summer of 1948 he proposed building an ambitious 250-foot dish that could be pointed anywhere in the sky. Among his arguments as he sought financing was that it could track the satellites that scientists predicted would someday be launched into space. In a link to the British Empire’s past, trunnions to support the dish were created using racks and pinions from the gun turrets of the decommissioned battleships Royal Sovereign and Revenge. Today, Jodrell Bank includes a range of research facilities built around the telescope, which bears Lovell’s name. And although its role tracking missiles at the dawn of the space age made it famous, most of its tracking time was spent on conventional astronomical research. Lovell was the author or coauthor of more than two dozen books and published lectures, among them “The Individual and the Universe� (1959); “The Story of Jodrell Bank� (1968); and his autobiography, “Astronomer by Chance� (1990). An accomplished organist, Lovell played in the village church until his eyesight failed him in his late 80s. He also loved gardening and created a 10-acre garden at his home, La Quinta, which is open to the public. Lovell married Joyce Chesterman in 1937. She died in 1993. In addition to his son Bryan, Lovell is survived by another son, Roger; two daughters, Judith Ann and Philippa; 14 grandchildren;
The Clark-Vancouver Regional Drug Task Force is celebrating what may be the single largest seizure of methamphetamine in Clark County’s history. The drug task force announced Wednesday that it recovered 74 pounds of crystal meth this week, valued at more than $932,000. The raids concluded a long-term investigation into a Mexican drug trafficking organization that operated in Clark County and was responsible for transporting large amounts of methamphetamine from California and distributing it throughout Vancouver and Portland, according to task force commander Mike Cooke. Investigators served search warrants at six Vancouver addresses on Monday and Tuesday. “This was a significant drug trafficking operation based in Clark County,� Cooke said in a news release. “This case is a great example of how a local drug task force can work a large case from beginning to end and make a significant impact on the local drug supply.� Starting late Monday and ending early Tuesday morning, the drug task force executed a series of six search warrants, including one at an apartment that served as a safe house for the drug traffickers, Cooke said. At that location on Southeast 10th Street, officers discovered the bulk of methamphetamine, with a street price of $12,600 per pound, he said. Two men were arrested at the raid locations: Santos Camacho-Cardenas, 23, of Vancouver, on allegations of possessing a controlled substance with intent to deliver methamphetamine and conspiracy to deliver methamphetamine, and Hever Zavala-Leon, 31, of Vancouver. Zavala-Leon faces allegations of being an illegal resident in possession of a firearm. During an earlier investigation in May, the task force seized about $120,000 in cash from two other suspects in the drug ring, Alejandro Guerrero-Corona, 31, of Los Angeles, and Eduardo Herrera-Ibarra, Eduardo, 28 of Vancouver, who traveled from California to collect cash proceeds from methamphetamine sales, authorities said. The two suspects, who had been under surveillance while in Clark County, were detained when they allegedly started to move the money south on I-5 from the Hazel Dell area.
5 swimmers saved at sea The Associated Press ASTORIA — The Coast Guard has rescued two children and two adults who were reportedly being swept out to sea off a north Oregon beach. In a separate case off the southern Oregon Coast, a Coast Guard spokesman says the agency rescued a 16-year-old autistic boy reported swimming out to sea Wednesday afternoon from a bay near Charleston. In the North Coast rescue, Petty Officer Nate Littlejohn says the agency got a call Wednesday from a witness who reported the four swimmers in distress off Rockaway Beach. Coast Guard rescuers pulled the swimmers into a boat. The spokesman says the four showed signs of hypothermia but were in good condition.

Oregon’s economy dipped in June, according to a statewide economic index released Wednesday. The University of Oregon Index of Economic Indicators dropped 0.3 percent, its first decline since November, according to UO economist Tim Duy, the report’s author. Six of the seven components that make up the index were unchanged or slightly weaker in June compared to May, according to the report. Despite the slight decline, signs point to continued economic growth in the state, Duy wrote, but at a rate below normal for economic expansion.

Pharmacy proposed for Bend • Plans also call for a bank or fast-food restaurant at the site By Elon Glucklich The Bulletin
A San Francisco developer wants to build a pharmacy near the intersection of Northeast Franklin Avenue and Northeast Second Street in Bend, on land adjacent to Murray and Holt Motors. Plans also call for a second building on the site, designed either for a bank or fast-food restaurant, according to doc-
uments filed with the Bend Community Development Department. But no timeline for the project has been established. A pharmacy hasn’t been selected, and city officials said a formal agreement to move forward with development hasn’t been reached. The developer, Seven Hills Properties, filed a request in July for a pre-application meeting with the city and met with officials on Aug. 2 to discuss the plan. Tom Rocca, a partner with Seven Hills Properties, said in an email before the
meeting was held that the company was still working out many details of the plan. Attempts to reach Rocca this week were unsuccessful. Seven Hills’ pre-application request includes plans for a 15,000-square-foot pharmacy building at the corner of Northeast Franklin Avenue and Northeast Second Street. The other proposed building is 4,000 square feet, at Second Street and Northeast Emerson Avenue. That land is owned by Jack Holt, principal dealer of Murray and Holt Motors. See Pharmacy / E3

Lodging tax revenue up Sports activity, rodeos, animal shows and other events helped boost lodging-tax collections 29 percent in Deschutes County in June, according to the Central Oregon Visitors Association. Hotels, resorts and other lodging businesses in unincorporated Deschutes County collected $445,126 in transient room taxes in June, according to an email from Alana Hughson, COVA president and CEO. Room taxes serve as a gauge for the tourism industry. The amount collected in June also helped boost total Deschutes County lodging tax collections 6.5 percent for the 2011-12 fiscal year, which ended June 30, over the 201011 fiscal year, according to data from COVA.
Productivity rebounds in U.S. U.S. productivity rebounded in the second quarter, posting a solid gain as companies generated more goods and services even though there was little change in the number of hours their employees worked. The Labor Department said Wednesday that productivity rose 1.6 percent in the April-to-June period, a sharp contrast to the first quarter’s revised decline of 0.5 percent. Economists surveyed by MarketWatch expected productivity to climb by 1.3 percent. Productivity measures the goods and services generated by an economy. In the long run, higher productivity usually results in higher profits for businesses and bigger paychecks for workers. The increase in second-quarter productivity comes down to a 2 percent gain in the amount of goods and services produced, known as output, and a much slower 0.4 percent increase in hours worked. — Staff and wire reports

Governments shed excess stuff online By Maria Herrera • Sun Sentinel FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — When government agencies want to get rid of excess stuff — from busted helicopters to used computers — they’re doing it like everyone who cleans out a garage these days: they’re going high-tech and reaching out to bargain hunters online. More and more governments are selling surplus goods on Internet auction services, where sellers can list items without moving them from their warehouses and people hunting for deals can bid with a mouse click from the comfort of, well, anywhere. “It’s like eBay for governments,” said Roger Gravley, vice president of client services and marketing at GovDeals. com, a company that provides online auction services to more than 4,800 agencies nationwide. “We may sell anything from surplus chairs to surplus helicopters.” Most of the buyers, Gravley said, are regular folks trying to sniff out a great
deal. And they can find more than a few. A recent auction featuring 10 Dell laptops with docking stations and laptop cases was going for $1,081 with a day left in the auction. A StairMaster was going for about $10 on another site. And there are big ticket items, too. The Palm Beach County (Fla.) Sheriff’s Office is currently auctioning a damaged helicopter on GovDeals.com with a starting bid of $50,000. Broward County (Fla.) Schools had a salad bar and hospital bed on a similar site called PublicSurplus. com. Items are sold “as is” and “where is,” meaning buyers have to pick things up

or arrange shipping. By using online auction services, “government agencies not only generate more revenue, but they’re also able to be more efficient and cut their overhead,” said Eric Heaps, chief operating officer of The Public Group LLC, which operates PublicSurplus.com. The site was created with school districts in mind, Heaps said. Broward County Schools, which has used the online auction service for nine years, has auctioned everything from kitchen stoves to a back and abdominal workout bench. See Auctions / E4

Drug-technology developer Bend Research has filed plans to expand its manufacturing facility in northeast Bend, adding a new laboratory and office space to accommodate a growing workforce. A pre-application request filed July 30 with the city of Bend proposes a 3,700square-foot expansion that would add on to the current 13,600-square-foot building. The proposal comes as Bend Research develops products for new clients, said CEO Rod Ray. Bend Research reached an agreement with New Jersey-based Catalent Pharma Solutions in June to develop new controlled-release oral medications. That agreement came on the heels of several other high-profile partnerships in the last year, including those with pharmaceutical companies Merck & Co., Eli Lilly Co. and Affinium Pharmaceuticals. “We’ve been expanding steadily over the last couple of years,” Ray said. Those partnerships were made possible by a 2008 agreement with Pfizer, ending a 23-year exclusive relationship with the pharmaceutical giant. The move allowed Bend Research to offer its drugdevelopment technologies to other companies. Bend Research has gone from about 250 employees at the end of 2011 to nearly 300 today. The idea behind the proposed expansion is simple: Employees are starting to run out of space to conduct research into new products, Ray said. The expansion would give workers a new lab, conference room, offices and warehouse space at its building on Northeast Builders Street, according to site plans filed with Bend’s Community Development Department. “The facility would mostly be for the sort of things we already do; it would just add more capacity for us to do it,” Ray said.

Consumers paying for many things that once were free By Gregory Karp Chicago Tribune
Getting something “free” causes an unusual spark in a consumer’s brain, consumer behaviorists have shown. That might explain why consumers fill out forms, giving up personal information, for the chance at winning something free in a sweepstakes. They will diligently clip supermarket coupons and match them to store sales to get a free stick of deodorant. They will act like lunatics on
television game shows for the chance at winning free money or prizes. That makes it all the more odd that consumers nowadays pay for so PERSONAL many things used FINANCE that to be free. Sometimes, they voluntarily pay. We pay for TV service, air for our car tires and checked airline luggage. We even pay extra for drinking water. Pizza delivery charges, street
parking and fees for access to news websites are more common. We used to walk or run outdoors; now many pay a fitness center to be a pedestrian on their treadmills. The point isn’t to altogether avoid spending on formerly free stuff; sometimes you have no choice because of marketplace changes.
Rather, the idea is to spend money deliberately, determining whether something is worth paying for. That’s fundamental to spending smart. Here’s a sampling of stuff we pay for that past generations might not have:
Bottled water Drinking water is perhaps the perfect example of spending on
something that used to be free. This is a beverage that falls from the sky for free and is available for free at public water fountains. The cost of tap water at home is so low, averaging one-fifth of a penny per gallon, it’s nearly free. Yet, Americans are spending record amounts of money ($11.1 billion) drinking a record amount of bottled water (9.1 million gallons), according to the Beverage Marketing Corp. See Free / E3

Googleto include people’s Gmail in search results By Michael Liedtke The Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO — Google is creating an information bridge between its influential Internet search engine and its widely used Gmail service in its latest attempt to deliver more personal responses more quickly. The experimental feature unveiled Wednesday will enable Google’s search engine to mine the correspondence stored within a user’s Gmail account for any data tied to a search request. For example, a query containing the word
Free Continued from E1 And they endure the hassle of shopping for it and lugging home heavy cases of it. Worse, some people will spend several dollars on individual bottles of water, making it far more expensive per gallon than gasoline. Even filtered water at home is far cheaper than bottled, and keep in mind that some of the top brands of bottled water, Aquafina and Dasani, are filtered municipal tap water. Nonfinancial considerations include the energy and material used to make plastic bottles and the problem of disposing of them. The question is, is it worth it to you to buy bottled water, when there is often a free, or nearly free, alternative?
Television service Adults of a certain age remember when you paid for a television, but the programs were free, beamed to a metal antenna on the roof or atop the TV set. Receiving free broadcasts over the air is relatively rare now, although you can get excellent high-definition signals that way with the same antennas as a generation ago. Use AntennaWeb (antennaweb.org) to help choose an antenna for your address. But instead of receiving free broadcast signals, the average subscription TV bill is $86 per month, according to a recent study by research firm NPD Group. If nothing changes, NPD expects the average pay-TV bill to reach $123 by 2015 and $200 by 2020. Granted, you get many more channels when you pay, and you get no cable stations, such as ESPN, CNN or HBO, when
Although Google has a commanding lead in Internet search, it remains worried about the threat posed by social networking services such as Facebook Inc. As social networks have made it easier to share information online, the Web is starting to revolve more around people than the keywords and links that Google’s search engine. Google has been trying to adapt by building more personal services and plugging them into its search engine. Blending email informa-
tion into general search results could raise privacy worries. Google is trying to mitigate that by showing Gmail results in a collapsed format that users must open to see the details. For now, users must sign up to participate. Google Inc. ran into trouble over privacy in 2010 when it tapped the personal contact information within Gmail accounts to build a social networking service called Buzz. Google set up Buzz in a way that caused many users to inadvertently expose personal data from Gmail.
you don’t. But the free broadcast networks — ABC, CBS, NBC, et al. — are still among the most watched. Meanwhile, others pay to watch television programs on Netflix or Hulu, which can be less-expensive alternatives but aren’t free. Television can be relatively inexpensive entertainment compared with regularly dining out and going to concerts, for example. But the question is whether it’s worth paying for compared with a free alternative.
dumping coins into a machine at the supermarket that keeps some of your money. Banking is highly competitive, so you can probably find one that has a good mix of free services that will save you money.
attendant who would pump the gasoline for you, clean your windshield and check your oil level each time you filled up. Now with pay-at-the-pump, it’s unusual in most states to even interact with another human during the fueling process. And forget about getting free highway maps at the gas station anymore. For air, you often have to feed quarters into an air pump to fill up tires, which can improve gas mileage by more than 1 mpg, reduce tire wear and possibility of tire failure, according to Consumer Reports. Auto experts suggest checking your tire pressure regularly. So, it could be worth scouting a station near you that still offers free air. If you’re diligent about filling tires, it could pay in the long run to buy your own electric tire-inflation pump. Prices start at about $20.
Checking account Once upon a time, a new bank customer might not only receive free checking at the local bank but also might receive a kitchen toaster as a bonus gift. Nowadays, you’ll be hardpressed to find free checking at major banks without several strings attached, such as a minimum balance or direct deposit of a paycheck. Fortunately, you can still get truly free checking. However, you might have to switch to a small bank, online bank or credit union. Several online sites will recommend a bank for you. Try a few. Among them are bankrate.com, moneyrates.com, findabetterbank. com, bankfox.com and mybanktracker.com. To find out which credit unions you qualify to join, visit aSmarterChoice.org, CreditUnion.coop and CUlookup.com. Use of ATMs used to be free too. Not so much now. And some banks now charge for the privilege of getting a paper bank statement, instead of an online one. Another free service that we pay for now is getting rid of loose change, opting for the convenience of
This one is no fault of consumers. The airline industry refers to it as “unbundling,” allowing passengers to pay for only the travel features they want: seat selection, food, checked bags. Consumers, accustomed to those things being baked into the cost of a ticket, just call them extra fees. Typical is $25 for one checked bag traveling one way, or $50 round trip. Fortunately, you have ways to avoid checked-bag fees, besides overstuffing a carry-on or achieving elite-flier status. For some airlines, you could apply for an airline-branded credit card that will get you free checked bags, although credit cards are inherently dangerous to some spendthrifts, and many cards charge annual fees. Or you could fly an airline that has no checked-bag fee, such as Southwest Airlines (two bags free) or JetBlue Airways (one bag free). If you’re the gambling type, you might take advantage of today’s crowded flights and lack of overhead bin space by volunteering to gate-check your bag, which is free. But it won’t work if the gate agent doesn’t need to solicit passengers to gate-check their bags.

The Associated Press NEW YORK — Starbucks Corp. will soon be the first national chain to let customers pay with Square’s mobile payment application. Square was founded in 2009 by Jack Dorsey, the creator of Twitter. Users of Square mobile payments app are currently mostly small
businesses and individuals, meaning the partnership with Starbucks could significantly raise the company’s profile. The Seattle-based coffee company says it will start accepting payments from Square’s app this fall, in addition to the Starbucks payment app it rolled out a year and a half ago.
Pharmacy
far from being done.” The Aug. 2 meeting included talks with city officials about potential traffic and construction issues that could arise from the pharmacy proposal, said Amy Barry, associate planner with the city of Bend. No serious issues were brought up in that meeting. But where the proposal heads from here is up to Rocca. “Nothing is really set in stone. They aren’t even in the design stages,” Barry said. Seven Hills “is just wanting to see what issues would need to be addressed if they went forward.” The pharmacy proposal would be Seven Hills’ first venture in Oregon, according to its online portfolio of properties. Most of its building activity is centered in the Bay Area. But the company has also built in Nevada, Maryland and Hawaii.
Continued from E1 Moving forward with the proposal could displace several current tenants in a building on the property that Holt leases, including Floor Decor, Azillion Beads, Deschutes County Republicans and Budget Rent-A-Car. But while Holt has fielded offers from developers to buy his property in the past, he said he would be willing to move forward on a sale to Seven Hills. “He and I have agreed on conditions,” Holt said of his talks with Rocca. Holt declined to reveal the financial aspects of the agreement, but said he had discussed the plan with the tenants that would be displaced if the plan moves forward. “I think we will come to an agreement,” Holt said. “But there are many conditions; the meeting with the city was very preliminary. The deal is
The free stuff
Research
Of course, some things that used to be expensive are now free. For example, long-distance phone calls were pricey and charged by the minute. Now, unlimited long-distance is a throw-in for service on land lines and wireless phones. And computer-to-computer voice calling and video conferencing are free with such services as Skype or Apple’s FaceTime, as long as you have a fast Internet connection. Some things have remained free, or already paid for, through the years. Just check out the good stuff at your local public library. And if you want to give or receive all kinds of free stuff — unwanted lamps, children’s bikes, appliances — join The Freecycle Network in your area, via freecycle.org.
Continued from E1 The pre-application meeting is scheduled for Aug. 16. It’s just the first step in the process for new construction of large facilities. City officials still have to develop a list of possible issues to address with the project, including potential traffic, fire safety and other problems that could come up. But Ray said he was confident the plan wouldn’t face significant hurdles. As long as the city doesn’t find any big issues, he said, Bend Research would look to move forward with a formal application as quickly as possible. “It wouldn’t surprise me if we were breaking ground before the end of the year,”

Starbucks to use Square app
“Amazon” would pull emails with shipping information sent by the online retailer. Such Gmail results will typically be shown to the right of the main results, though in some instances, the top of the search page will highlight an answer extracted directly from an email. For example, the request “my flight” will show specific airline information imported from Gmail. Something similar could eventually happen when searching for a restaurant reservation or tickets to a concert.

Ray said. “I expect it to go smoothly.” The proposed expansion is likely to be just one of many in the years to come, Ray said. Bend Research is exploring new fields of study, including electrical storage, and computer-based modeling systems — which use complex mathematical formulas to develop models for new technology in medical, energy and other fields. “These are some new areas we’re pushing into,” Ray said. Bend Research has four facilities in Bend and Tumalo. The manufacturing facility on Builders Street handles development of its drug products. The company has been operating in Bend since being founded in 1975. — Reporter: 541-617-7820 eglucklich@bendbulletin.com

WASHINGTON — In the latest sign that the worst might be over for the battered U.S. housing market, the two government-controlled mortgage finance giants, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, this week reported some of their best quarterly results since the real estate collapse. On Wednesday, Fannie Mae posted second-quarter net income of $5.1 billion. That is up from $2.7 billion in the first quarter of this year and an improvement from a net loss of $2.9 billion in the second quarter of last year. Fannie requested no additional money from the Treasury and said it would pay a $2.9 billion dividend to taxpayers. On Tuesday, its brother organization, Freddie Mac, announced second-quarter net income of $3 billion, up from $577 million in the first quarter and a net loss of $2.1
billion in the year-ago second quarter. It also requested no additional federal aid and said it would pay a $1.8 billion dividend to the federal government. “We’ve have had two very good quarters,� Timothy Mayopoulos, who became Fannie Mae’s chief executive in June, said in an interview. “In the longer term, we’re encouraged by what we see, but it’s going to be driven by factors that are bigger than we are,� including unemployment and consumer confidence. The mortgage giants have moved into the black as U.S. home prices have increased, delinquency rates have continued to fall and what analysts have cautiously described as a housing recovery has begun to take hold. This week, CoreLogic, a real estate data firm, said that home prices rose 2.5 percent in June compared with a year ago. There has also
Jewelry lost and never claimed at Palm Beach International Airport in Florida will soon go up for auction.

been a surge in refinancing, as homeowners have taken advantage of record low interest rates. “At the halfway point, 2012 is increasingly looking like the year that the residential housing market may have turned the corner,� Anand Nallathambi, CoreLogic’s president, said in a statement. Both mortgage financiers said that loans made during the housing bubble — loans on which homeowners were more likely to default — were becoming smaller proportions of their portfolios. Housing experts caution that the increase in home prices might not augur a housing turnaround — and that further losses might still lie ahead for the Washingtonbased mortgage financiers. Though prices increased in June, home sales declined by 5.6 percent, the largest drop in 16 months, according to Capital Economics.
Auctions Continued from E1 Heaps said the online auction reaches a wider pool of potential buyers, sometimes attracting international buyers in the market for anything from school buses to used computers. “We have a lot of school buses,� he said. “It’s not unusual to see them go to Central or South America.� Gravley said some of the buyers are people looking to make a business out of flipping goods they can find cheap. “We do have some agencies that buy from the site, but the majority is the general public,� he said. The company targets potential buyers by advertising in sites such as Automobiles .com, if it is selling cars; or FirstResponders.com if it has firefighting equipment for sale, Gravley said. The sites usually get a cut of the sale revenue. Heaps from PublicSurplus.com said it’s the company’s policy to
keep about 10 percent of the winning bid amount. For the governments, online auctions offer a larger pool of buyers. “We used to have an annual auction, but it wasn’t cost-effective,� said Richard Hasko, director of Environmental Services for Delray Beach, Fla. “We used to use the Palm Beach County Thrift Store, but they have gotten selective with what they’ll take, and it would cost us money and man hours to retrieve what didn’t sell, or throw it away.� Delray Beach has sold $525,000 worth of goods on GovDeals.com since it started using the service in 2008. West Palm Beach, Fla., earned $241,500 from the sale of a helicopter recently, and the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office, which currently has the damaged helicopter listed, has earned $172,793 so far this year. Gravley said the online auction site has been able to sell $127 million in surplus goods for the government
agencies it contracts with. Other cities and agencies have opted to continue with a more traditional approach — local auctioneers or their own auctions. Boynton Beach, Fla., waits until it has up to 10 items before sending them to a local auction. “We have tried eBay in the past,� said City Engineer Jeff Livergood. “It’s a very cumbersome process to sell on eBay and not worth the effort.� The Palm Beach County Thrift Store also contracts with several municipalities and local government agencies to auction goods on site several times a year, earning an average of $2 to $3 million a year, said Angelo DiPiero, an asset manager with Palm Beach County. The thrift store also handles the auction of lost and found items from Palm Beach International Airport and sees its share of unusual items — including a small engine airplane that sold for approximately $115,000.

Inflammation is a complex biochemical response to harmful stimuli. It’s the body’s attempt to heal an injury or trauma. White blood cells, full of healing nutrients and immune cells, target areas in need of repair.
Inflammation can be good, or it can be bad. The good kind is what people see as the redness and swelling associated with injuries and infections. It’s a sign that the white blood cells have flooded the area and are attacking the problem. This usually resolves itself in time. See Inflammation / F4

M Health risks from mobile phones should be examined, GAO says By Todd Shields Bloomberg News
WASHINGTON — Exposure and testing requirements for using mobile phones should be reassessed by the Federal Communications Commission, the Government Accountability Office said. Research hasn’t demon-
strated adverse human-health effects of exposure to radiofrequency energy from using mobile phones, the investigative arm of Congress said in a study posted on its website. Limits set by the FCC in 1996 may not reflect the latest research, and testing requirements may not identify maxi-
mum exposure in all possible usage conditions, the GAO said in the report dated July 24. “With mobile phones in the pockets and purses of millions of Americans, we need a full understanding of the long-term impact of mobile phone use on the human body, particularly in children whose
brains and nervous systems are still developing,� Rep, Edward Markey, D-Mass., said Tuesday. The FCC under Chairman Julius Genachowski, D, said June 15 it’s planning to review the standards. FCC spokesman Neil Grace didn’t immediately provide a comment.
The report was requested by congressional Democrats, who said the FCC should change its requirements to reflect current research. CTIA-The Wireless Association, a Washington-based trade group, welcomes further review of the standards, spokesman John Walls said.

Meditation, exercise may help limit cold, flu, study says By Aisha Qidwae Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
Meditation or exercise may lower the rate, length and severity of the flu or common cold, according to preliminary findings of a study conducted in Wisconsin. The randomized controlled trial suggests preventing the common cold may not just be limited to practices such as frequent hand washing or covering the mouth when sneezing or coughing. “The bottom line is both the mental health and physical health matter in helping improve (the) flu and cold,� said physician Bruce Barrett, author of the study and associate professor in the University of Wisconsin-Madison medical school’s department of family medicine. He said in addition to taking precautions to prevent colds, regular exercise and meditation may help. “If it turns out to be true, it’s a bigger deal than flu shots,� Barrett said. The study was published this month in the Annals of Family Medicine. Studying a total of 149 individuals split into three groups, participants meditating on a regular basis reported 257 days of the common cold or flu, people who exercised regularly reported 241 days of illness, and the control group had the highest number of days in which they had cold and flu symptoms, 453. The groups were studied from September 2009 to May 2010 by University of Wisconsin-Madison researchers. Missed days due to the flu or common cold were the lowest in the meditating group at 16, followed by the exercise group at 32. Those in the control group missed 67 days.

Meghan Melone, of Elk Grove Village, Ill., who was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis at age 14, works out with weights in the gym at Conant High School, Hoffman Estates, where her brother works as a teacher.
MS Continued from F1 While the National Multiple Sclerosis Society estimates that about 400,000 Americans have the disease, MS has gained more attention this year because Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney’s wife, Ann, has it. Diagnosed with MS in 1998, Ann Romney in recent months has opened up about her battles with fatigue, depression and mobility, suggesting her experience may help shape her goals as first lady should her husband be elected. The stories of those living with MS in the Chicago area show the many paths the disease can take and the varied ways people have chosen to navigate its uncharted course.
Meghan Melone On Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday nights, Meghan Melone removes a syringe from the refrigerator, waits for the liquid inside to warm and then injects it into her body. The drug, known as Rebif, is just one of many designed to help slow the progression of MS. At times, it has left Melone, 22, fighting headaches and chills, but until this spring it seemed to be working. “I felt awesome, I was running, you would never have even thought I had MS,� said Melone on a recent afternoon at her Elk Grove Village home. In October 2004, Melone was trick-or-treating when she noticed her feet were numb. During the following week, while she was trying out for her high school varsity basketball team, the feeling crept up her legs like rising water. By Friday, an emergency room doctor told Melone and her family that it was likely MS. “I’m 14 years old on a Friday night in the ER and I’m like, ‘No, you have the wrong person,’ � Melone said. She started the tri-weekly injections. Though she remained on the bench for most of her basketball career, she was able to play soccer and volleyball. Four years later, Melone enrolled in a college in Indiana. But in April, the familiar numbness returned. This time, she also had problems thinking. Her parents rushed to her side, driving Melone to her student teaching job, cooking and helping her in and out of a wheelchair that had belonged to her grandfather before he died. Even though Melone made a full recovery, her parents remain shaken by the latest relapse. “It’s your job as parents to protect your kids,� said Melone’s mother, Betty. “We’re supposed to make sure these things don’t happen to them.� The disease, however, has lent their daughter a maturity
beyond her youth. Melone graduated in May and is now focused on the future — a career teaching Spanish and hopefully, one day, a family of her own. In the meantime, she tries to move for at least 30 minutes every day. She runs, she kick boxes, she plays soccer whenever she can. “I try not to take anything for granted,� Melone said.
Eric Powell If people stare when Eric Powell takes his children out in Chicago, he tries to make his kids laugh. “I’ll say something like, ‘It’s because they can’t believe you’re with such a goodlooking guy,’ � Powell said last month, sitting in his Near North Side apartment. Powell, 45, was diagnosed with MS around 1995 after having blurred vision and numbness in one leg. He had mild symptoms for nearly 10 years, in which time he married and had three children. But about six years ago, Powell said he started losing the ability to walk. Powell used a cane and then an arm crutch and finally a wheelchair. He and his wife divorced, a split that Powell blames, in part, on financial problems and his stubborn refusal to accept help as the disease grew worse. Now, Powell can no longer move his left arm or leg and must use a motorized scooter, which he said sometimes creates a spectacle of sorts when he is chaperoning his two young daughters and son. “If it’s raining, for instance,� Powell said. “I’ll have a big golf umbrella and I’ll have one of them on the foot plate and the other two on each knee.� To get by one-handed, Powell uses elastic shoelaces, a button threader and a special cutting board that has a vice for holding food. When golfing, he rides in a chair that can position him over the ball. If he wants to sail, there is also a local group that runs an adapted boat he can help operate. Beyond mobility, Powell struggles to speak for long periods of time and multi-task. He has received disability payments since about 2005. Some of Powell’s most difficult moments have been when his kids have had to help him, especially if he falls out of his wheelchair. But Powell believes his struggles with MS have also made him a better father in certain ways. He is not as quick to answer his cellphone, for instance, when his kids are visiting. And he tries to talk to them more about life and the mistakes he has made that they should avoid. “MS definitely puts things into perspective big time,� Powell said.
Beverly Johnson Beverly Johnson dreads summer.

Eric Powell, center, powers his wheelchair while his kids ride scooters with him to Olive Park in Chicago. Powell, 45, was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis around 1995 after having blurred vision and numbness in one leg.
The heat seeps into her body, tweaking the nerves that cross her brain and wind down her spinal column. So during hot spells, Johnson, 64, relaxes in her air conditioned Southside home. She devours dozens of mystery and romance novels on her Kindle. She waits until evening to water her impatiens and hydrangea. “I have found out that two things really trigger me to not do as well: heat and stress,� Johnson said on a recent night, sitting beside her husband on their backyard deck. “So I really try to do everything I can to take care of myself.� In 1993, Johnson was driving to the post office when her fingertips felt numb. She later noticed her grip had weakened. Doctors diagnosed Johnson with MS, but she initially ignored their treatment recommendations because her symptoms remained so mild. Despite residual tingling in her hands and feet, Johnson continued to live as she always had until a family gathering in the summer of 2002 when the extreme heat gave her such bad vertigo she could barely walk. For days after, Johnson used a walker and then, eventually, affixed a rubber end to one of the African walking sticks she collects to turn it into a cane. For the first time, Johnson said she realized the seriousness of MS. She retired several months early and started working out. She began injecting herself
daily with a drug meant to slow the disease. About two years ago, Johnson also applied for a handicap placard for her vehicle. When it arrived in the mail — the word “permanent� inscribed on its shiny, blue plastic — she cried. Yet Johnson said she is grateful, especially on hot days, that she has it. Those types of uncomfortable decisions, Johnson has tried to remind herself in recent years, are part of taking as much control of life as possible. “You can’t let fear keep you from living the best quality of life you can,� she said.
David Sackett Even if he must limp, David Sackett walks. At work, he chooses the stairs. At home, he retrieves the newspaper from the front porch. While seemingly small, these simple actions represent what Sackett, 52, still can do. “It gets harder and harder every day,� said Sackett, sitting in his Oswego home with his wife on a recent weekend. “So I force myself to do it.� Sackett, who left a corporate sales job about 10 years ago for a second career as a firefighter and paramedic, was diagnosed in 2010 with progressive MS after he noticed that his right leg felt “floppy.� Most people who are diagnosed with MS have the relapsing/remitting kind, which means they may be asymptomatic for years between flare-
ups. In Sackett’s case, however, his mobility problems reflect permanent nerve damage that will only get worse. “That is why we say that at the end of every day you find the positive because you never know what the next day is going to be like,� said Sackett’s wife, Pieper. Adjustments have been inevitable. Last year, Sackett traded in his stick shift truck for an automatic. In December, he held the ladder while his son strung Christmas lights around the house. And this January, he moved to a desk job at the Oswego Fire Protection District because he could no longer handle the physical demands of firefighting. “It was the hardest day of my life because I love my job, I love helping people,� Sackett said. Since the diagnosis, Sackett has increasingly lost strength and feeling in his right leg and hand. Several weeks ago he also broke his right foot because he couldn’t tell how he was stepping. But Sackett said he takes pleasure in his new assignment helping the department with fire prevention and education. The regular hours give him more time to spend with his wife, son, daughter and granddaughter. And, almost every day, he still finds time to visit the younger firefighters to give them tips on technique. “That is what I can do, and I try to focus on that,� Sackett said.

New tech is helping people manage asthma
F3
Finding doctors, clinics and advice while on vacation By Kristen Gerencher MarketWatch
By Kibkabe Araya The Seattle Times
SEATTLE — Inhalers count puffs. Peak-flow meters are read digitally. Nebulizers have shrunk to half their old size. In the past few years, asthma patients have seen technology make the disease more manageable. Companies now are unveiling devices that track inhaler usage with GPS, measure wheezing, compile data on smartphone-mobile apps and share interactive online content. With the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention pricing asthma at $56 billion a year in hospitalizations, doctor visits and loss of productivity, technology plans to target the nation’s 25 million asthmatics. Cutting-edge devices and mobile apps may attract adults, while animation and content may help children and their families better identify triggers, symptoms and behaviors. “People who have a lot of symptoms of asthma sometimes are not aware of it. It’s really important to see if your symptoms are escalating and you have to use your inhaler more,” said Dr. Teal Hallstrand, pulmonologist and professor at the University of Washington. In 2006, Dr. David Van Sickle attached snap-on GPS sensors over the top of inhalers for a study at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. GPS records the location and time an inhaler is used and Bluetooth sends data to a remote server. So if a person strolls under a blossoming tree and uses an inhaler, GPS gives a location and time marker, signaling pollen may have triggered a respiratory reaction — and the person should avoid that route. “Our goal is to build technology and tools to do a better job of managing asthma but with less effort,” said Van Sickle, now CEO of Asthmapolis, a Madison, Wis.-based company that also released a mobile app for iPhones and Android smartphones. Syncing the sensor data and sending text-message reminders to take medicine are some of the features. The company recently partnered with Synapse Product Development in Seattle to create more asthmarelated products. Last year, the VA Puget Sound Health Care System in Seattle tested the prescribed Asthmapolis sensor on three patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or COPD. Commonly confused with asthma, COPD leads to difficulty breathing and branches into chronic bronchitis or emphysema. Because the average age of the patients was 65, doctors thought the easyto-use sensor forwarding them data on inhaler use would help both parties. “I think what’s exciting for me is that there are other ways to monitor symptoms at home,” said Dr. Vincent Fan, physician and study investigator. “Patients used to write in journals at home, and that’s a lot for patients to do. This tells us what’s happening with the medication in real time.” While Asthmapolis uses GPS, iSonea uses sensory technology to measure breathing vibrations with sound. The WheezoMeter, also available with a prescription, records the breathing rhythm once pressed against the throat and analyzes it to give a percentage for wheezing. When wheezing, it’s easy to miss the point where it escalates into an asthma attack. In June, iSonea went the mobile app route with AsthmaSense, which alerts the user when the risk of an asthma attack increases and lets them log medicine use. “If the market isn’t ready for you, then the technology will not adapt to the market,” CEO Mike Thomas said. “This smartphone tsunami is enabling our algorithms, our technologies, our devices to reach millions of people.”

Anthony Arceri, 7, interacts with Zeno at UNT Center for Biohealth in Fort Worth, Texas. Zeno is a two-foot-tall robot that has facial expressions, can walk and can gesture with two hands. Researchers believe Zeno may be able to help diagnose autism.
Researchers use robot to gain insights into autistic children By Elizabeth Campbell McClatchy Newspapers
FORT WORTH, Texas — Anthony Arceri stood in front of Zeno, a friendly, child-size robot that was ready to play. “What is your favorite food?” Zeno asked Anthony, a 7-year-old decked out in a black outfit covered with sensors. “Chocolate milk and french fries,” Anthony responded. “I love chocolate milk,” Zeno said. When Zeno raised his arm, so did Anthony. When Zeno rubbed his stomach, so did Anthony. While the interaction between Anthony and the robot — which stands about 2 feet tall, can move its arms and has lifelike facial expressions — may seem like just hightech fun, researchers hope it holds the key to early diagnosis and treatment of autism. Researchers from the University of Texas at Arlington, the University of North Texas Health Science Center at Fort Worth, the Dallas Autism Treatment Center, Texas Instruments and Hanson Robotics are collaborating on a one-year project that is funded in part by a $100,000 grant from the Texas Medical Research Collaborative. Nicoleta Bugnariu, associate professor at the health science center and a physical therapist/neuroscientist, said it is important to diagnose autism during motor skill development, which precedes language development. Autism spectrum disorders are not often diagnosed until a child is speaking. “If we can look at a marker prior to language development, then we can diagnose

children earlier and intervene earlier,” Bugnariu said. Pamela Rainville, Anthony’s mother, said she hopes the research will give doctors and other professionals additional information that will not only help teach her son how to interact but also provide him and others with life skills. “We just hope that by doing this research, that it will help someone else,” Rainville said. Dan Popa, an associate professor of electrical engineering at UTA and the lead investigator, has been involved in robotic research for 20 years. He said the trend is for robots to be used outside the lab. Robots help people who have difficulty moving and teach children how to interact. Since Zeno is a social robot, responding to verbal commands and gestures, autistic children see it as a toy and won’t be threatened, he said. “Autistic children are very drawn to this robot. It’s easier
for them to respond to this robot as opposed to an adult.” Carolyn Garver, who is director of the Dallas Autism Treatment Center and is recruiting participants for the study, said the data collected from the robot and virtual-reality games will give doctors and others involved information that is sometimes difficult for humans to discern, such as ways of moving the body or eyes. She said there are no biological methods for determining autism. Four children have signed up, but researchers hope to have 10. As the testing continued, Anthony hopped onto a treadmill with a 180-degree curved screen. Researchers used several scenarios, such as a shooting gallery, that measured Anthony’s movements as he shot at rubber ducks. Another scenario showed a path going through woods leading to a house. Anthony had to shoo away birds by moving his arms as he walked on the treadmill. Rainville said that autism differs from one child to the next and that working with Zeno is not the answer for everyone. But she has visited the health science center twice and will come back in about four months. She said her son likes the interaction with technology and wants to have a treadmill with a TV at home. “I wouldn’t do this (participate in the project) if he didn’t enjoy it. He likes trying new things,” Rainville said. “I want to make sure that Anthony succeeds in life when I can’t be there to help him.”
SAN FRANCISCO — Getting sick or hurt while on summer vacation is unfortunate enough. Don’t add insult to injury by neglecting a few health-related details that could save you money in the event you need medical treatment. If you’re traveling domestically, research in-network providers at your destination to avoid having to pay higher rates for out-of-network care. Go to your insurer’s website or call the toll-free number on your insurance card for help finding local in-network doctors for non-emergencies. Some insurers offer smartphone apps, such as UnitedHealthcare’s Health4Me app, that allow you to find physicians in a given area. Keep your primary-care doctor’s phone number handy as well. You can always call for advice if it isn’t an emergency. “Most of the time, parents just need an answer to a question,” said Deborah Mulligan, spokeswoman for the American Academy of Pediatrics and a pediatric emergency physician in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. Another option for relatively minor problems is visiting a retail health clinic or urgent-care clinic. There are more than 1,300 retail clinics in 39 states, and they accept major health plans or cash payment if you don’t have coverage, said Tom Charland, chief executive of Merchant Medicine, a consulting firm in Shoreview, Minn. Check your insurer’s web-

site to find a facility, or go to the sites of big operators, such as TakeCareHealth.com, a Walgreens subsidiary. Retail clinics offer a limited scope of services, treating ailments like pink eye, bronchitis, ear infections and bladder infections. If you have a non-life-threatening injury such as a simple fracture, cut or burn, visit an urgent-care center instead. It’s vital to carry a short health summary for every traveler in your family listing current medications and health conditions, previous hospitalizations, drug allergies, your doctors’ contact information and the like. The American College of Emergency Physicians offers a variety of forms online that you can print and fill out, including one for children with special health-care needs. (Go to emergencycareforyou.org/ EmergencyManual, http:// emergencycareforyou.org/ EmergencyManual, scroll down and click on Medical Forms.) If you’ve had an EKG, take a copy of it in your wallet. This will help doctors establish a base line and possibly avoid an expensive cardiac work-up, said Linda Stogner, a family physician in Estancia, N.M., and ship physician with Lindblad Expeditions. “It’s your record. It’s your heart. You should have it,” she said. If you or your children are behind on immunizations, get caught up before you take off. “Imagine the cost of falling ill from something like whooping cough or measles unnecessarily,” Mulligan said.

N Don’t look now: Images of high-calorie foods can be very influential If you’re trying to diet, you might want to close your eyes. Images of high-calorie foods can stimulate the brain’s appetite control center, boosting the desire for food, according to a study. This could be troubling in an environment that’s inundated with advertisements for unhealthy foods. Researchers used MRIs to measured the responses of the brains of
HEALTHY CHOICES 13 obese, young, Hispanic women as they viewed blocks of images of highcalorie foods such as ice cream and cupcakes as well as low-calorie foods such as fruits and vegetables, and nonfood items. Participants rated, on a scale of 1 to 10, their hunger and their desire for
either sweet or savory foods. Halfway through the scans, participants drank sugar drinks with glucose or fructose in amounts equivalent to a can of soda. Results showed that simply viewing high-calorie food images activated brain regions that
Inflammation Continued from F1 But inflammation becomes problematic when it lingers undetected and untreated. It can affect a variety of functions and has been associated with many conditions and diseases including obesity, heart disease, stroke, Type 2 diabetes, cancer and autoimmune disorders. Some types of white blood cells that are part of the immune system produce cytokines, molecules that signal cellular communication. Some cytokines are pro-inflammatory. Chronically inflamed tissues and the prolonged presence of pro-inflammatory cytokines can lead to abnormal cell growth, which, for example, is at the root of cancers, according to the article “Inflammation and Cancer” published in Nature, a science and medicine journal, in 2002. That inflammation can lead to cancer is generally accepted, but the mechanisms behind this relationship remain largely unresolved, the article said. Malignancies often arise from areas of infection and inflammation, wrote the study’s author, Lisa Coussens. This has been seen with colon cancers in people with inflammatory bowel diseases, chronic ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease, for example. Also, people who have had a hepatitis C infection have a predisposition to liver cancer, the study said. The significance of inflammation’s role in abnormal cell growth is also highlighted by studies that show the use of some anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) has been associated with a 40 to 50 percent reduced risk of colon cancer and a lower risk of lung, esophagus and stomach cancer. Anti-inflammatory medications, however, come with a slew of side effects, the worst of which include potential kidney or liver failure. Chronic inflammation can be detected through blood tests that look for certain biochemical markers. For example, rheumatologists find higher levels of those biomarkers in rheumatoid arthritis patients, indicating that inflammation is associated with the autoimmune disease, Uri said. Sometimes doctors check inflammation biomarkers to assess a patient’s risk of heart disease, she said. But in most cases of chronic inflammation, the person is unaware of what’s happening at the cellular level, silently inside the body.
Inflammatory foods Eating the right foods is good overall preventive health care, said Uri. Exactly how pro-inflammatory foods may contribute to certain health problems is not something Uri, who is studying integrative medicine and nutrition to complement her medical degree, can specifically explain. It’s a new area of research. From an evolutionary perspective, Uri said, human bodies are meant to metabolize foods such as vegetables, grains, nuts and meat. But in more recent times, she said, “we’ve asked our bodies to suddenly figure out what to do with all this other stuff — processed foods, high fructose corn syrup. Our bodies aren’t developed to metabolize those things and it (the body) works harder to do that. It can cause the broad definition of inflammation, where the body reacts negatively.” She and others said the most inflammatory foods are processed carbohydrates and

Linda Smith, 62, of Powell Butte, eats more salads now, after she stopped eating inflammatory foods such as white flour, refined sugar and processed foods. Smith was prediabetic, had high blood pressure, had issues similar to arthritis and was 20 pounds overweight. She feels better and is taking fewer medications now. “It’s easy to prescribe a pill to fix the symptoms but that wasn’t getting to the bottom of it,” she said. “Medicines made the aches and pain go away but I still felt sluggish. Mentally, (changing my diet) has helped me feel like, ‘Wow, I can be normal.’ ”
refined sugars. An article in the March 2002 American Journal of Clinical Nutrition suggested an association between inflammatory biomarkers and high-glycemic foods — rapidly digested carbohydrates that raise blood sugar fast, such as white bread and table sugar. It said these foods appeared to exacerbate the pro-inflammatory process and increase the risk of heart disease. But the study did not explain exactly how. Uri figures, generally speaking, that when the body is working overtime to metabolize those kinds of foods, it’s unable to take care of its other functions as well. For example, if the adrenal system, which is responsible for metabolizing blood sugar, is strained by metabolizing inflammatory foods, it wouldn’t be as adept at regulating growth and development, sex hormones and reproductive functions. Another example, she said, is when the body’s response to metabolizing inflammatory foods irritates the blood vessels. In that scenario, cholesterol, which helps maintain cells, gets directed to vessels that need to be repaired, resulting in a cholesterol buildup in the blood vessels and increasing the risk of heart disease, Uri said. Individuals experience inflammatory responses in different ways, and what’s bothersome to one person might be fine to another. For some people, dairy can be an inflammatory food, Uri said. Individuals may be experiencing inflammation if they have digestive discomfort, general fatigue or chronic pain. The only way to know what is causing it is to change the diet, she said. Carol Delmonico, a registered nurse and wellness coach in Bend, said some people with gluten sensitivities get inflamed digestive tracts when they eat gluten, a protein found in many grains such as wheat, rye and barley. That inflammation can lead to symptoms such as diarrhea, bleeding, constipation or bloating. In Delmonico’s
private practice, she said her patients who have adopted an anti-inflammation diet have reduced ailments such as gastrointestinal problems and chronic headaches. “What people have found by trial and error is that an anti-inflammatory diet makes them feel better,” Delmonico said. An anti-inflammation diet can’t solve every problem, but it’s one relatively simple thing we have control over, she said. Delmonico’s anti-inflammation diet guidelines are: Everyone can benefit from eating vegetables, lean proteins and whole grains. Some people should limit or avoid dairy or gluten. Most everyone should avoid white flour, hydrogenated oils and processed sugar. Eating sugar seems particularly linked with chronic pain, she said, which could be from fibromyalgia or arthritis. Chronic fatigue seems to improve when people wean themselves off sugar, too, she said. This was the case for Terri Cumbie, owner of Dudley’s BookShop Cafe in Bend, who has dealt with inflammation and pain in both of her shoulders from torn rotator cuffs for more than 10 years. The pain affected her ability to lift boxes of books, to think and to talk to people, she said. It wasn’t until she eliminated processed sugar and reduced carbohydrates such as bread and pasta in her diet that the pain waned. Linda Smith, of Powell Butte, said eliminating inflammatory foods has improved her life dramatically. Last spring, Uri sent Smith to a nutritionist because Smith was prediabetic, had high blood pressure and was 20 pounds overweight. Smith stopped eating white flour, refined sugar and starchy foods such as potatoes and corn. She gave up fast food, chips, and comfort food like macaroni. She incorporated more salads and fruits into her diet. “Within two weeks I was feeling better,” she said. Within two months, her dentist said her gums and tongue

appeared healthier. After about 30 years of taking blood pressure medications, at age 62 she now no longer needs them. She has lost almost 20 pounds, feels more energetic and is hoping to get off her diabetes medicine soon. “It’s easy to prescribe a pill to fix the symptoms but that wasn’t getting to the bottom of it,” she said. “Medicines made the aches and pain go away but I still felt sluggish. Mentally, this has helped me feel like, ‘Wow, I can be normal.’ ” Dr. Uri believes that all the body’s systems are connected and there are links between being overweight, having silent inflammation and developing disease. Bolstering that idea, a recent study published in Cancer Research, a journal of the American Association for Cancer Research, said that postmenopausal women who were overweight or obese and who lost at least 5 percent of their body weight measurably reduced markers of inflammation. “Both obesity and inflammation have been shown to be related to several types of cancer, and this study shows that if you reduce weight, you can reduce inflammation as well,” said Dr. Anne McTiernan, director of the Prevention Center at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle. Researchers noted that exercise alone, without a dietary weight loss component, had little effect on inflammation markers. “This study adds to the growing understanding we have about the link between obesity and cancer, and it appears we can affect inflammation directly through nonpharmaceutical means,” said McTiernan.
Anti-inflammatory foods Health professionals are trying to figure out what foods and nutrients could reduce inflammation. “A plethora of nutrients and other food components have been found to reduce inflammation — at least in laboratory animals and cell culture systems,” according to a study published in the 2012 article in the Journal of Nutrition. The study looked

Lead author Dr. Kathleen Page, an assistant professor at the University of Southern California, Los Angeles, suggested in conclusion that stimulation of the brain’s reward areas may contribute to overeating and obesity and that added sweeteners could be one of the main contributors to the obesity epidemic.
at the nutrient vitamin B6. It said higher levels of the vitamin in a person’s blood were associated with lower levels of markers of chronic inflammation. The study urged for additional research on this relationship. Science-based evidence has shown that many healthy foods have antiinflammatory properties, said Jill Souto-Maior, a registered dietitian with St. Charles Bend. For example, omega-3 fatty acids are known to decrease inflammation, she said, especially when the omega-3 fatty acids — prevalent in fish oils and walnuts — are eaten instead of omega-6 fatty acids, prevalent in many vegetable oils and snack foods. Epidemiologic studies — ones that can’t prove cause and effect but can show associations — suggest that populations that eat a lot of vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds, healthy oils and fatty fish have lower rates of chronic diseases related to inflammatory markers, such as heart disease, rheumatoid arthritis and Type 2 diabetes. Clinical studies have isolated compounds in some plant substances that act on metabolic pathways in the body that prevent inflammation. These include apples, cherries, berries, onions, ginger, turmeric, cauliflower, broccoli. Cherries, for example, are antioxidants that contain ellagic acid, which inhibits the growth of cancer cells; perillyl alcohol, which affects growth of cancer cells; and antiocyanthins, which shut down enzymes that cause inflammation, Souto-Maior said. “When you take these foods, you may not immediately feel the effect of a cup of berries the same way you do if you took an aspirin. But if you eat them regularly, over time … you do,” Souto-Maior said. “Twenty-five cherries is the equivalent of taking an ibuprofen.” — Reporter: 541-383-0304, aaurand@bendbulletin.com

‘Haute’ dog trend offers healthier way to indulge By Carolyn O’Neil The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
The simple summer pleasure of enjoying a hot dog at the ballpark or on the patio of a casual eatery has evolved into a gourmet event. As part of a nationwide trend, restaurants specializing in hot dogs and sausages such as HD1 in Atlanta are putting the “haute” in hot dog. You can still enjoy a Plain Jane at HD1 with a choice of two toppings, such as mustard, ketchup, sweet relish or onion, but chef Richard Blais’ imagination goes way beyond the basic beef. His menu includes haute dogs such as the Little Italy, featuring fennel sausage garnished with San Marzano tomato ketchup, and a Bavarian bratwurst with beerbraised onions. Dietitian Lanier Dabruzzi likes the high-end dog trend. “I think the ‘haute’ dog rage is actually great. People aren’t stuck with those mysterymeat dogs topped with sugary ketchup and relish anymore. A lot of the dogs are now being made with leaner meats and act as a great medium for people to load on the veggies.” Of course, there are a lot of options to load on other toppings that can really pile on the calories. Mustard, sauerkraut, pickle relish and chopped onion are the traditional toppings with the least amount of calories. Calorie-free celery salt is an option to sprinkle on at Mike’s Hot Dogs in Sandy Springs, Ga. Count about 315 calories for a regular-size dog on a roll with ketchup. Turkey dogs? They are generally lower in fat and calories than beef- or pork-based dogs, and most places offer a meatless alternative veggie frank, too. Choose a whole-grain bun and you’re on your way to creating a tasty and nutritious summer treat.

Manydrugs are going generic this year and next By Alexia Elejalde-Ruiz Chicago Tribune
Dozens of brand-name prescription drugs are losing their patent protection, allowing generic versions to enter the market and consumers to save 30 to 80 percent on those medications, said David Belian, director of media relations for the Generic Pharmaceutical Association. Generic forms of drugs have the same active ingredients as their brand-name counterparts but are significantly cheaper because they don’t invest in clinical trials or advertising, Belian said. About 80 percent of prescriptions are filled with generic drugs, and they have a good track record, said Howard Schiff, executive director of the Maryland Pharmacists Association. But some generic drugs may not work as well as the original brands, so before making the switch consider consulting your doctor who can write a prescription specifying brandname or generic, Schiff said.

U.S. cigarette consumption down, but use of other products is up

Sales of cigarettes in the United States are continuing to decline, but that decline is being partially offset by increases in the sales of loose tobacco and cigars, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Thursday. Cigarette consumption fell 2.5 percent from 2010 to 2011, but the overall drop in tobacco consumption was only 0.8 percent because of an increase in the sale of other smokable tobacco products, the agency reported in its Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report. At least part of the alteration in consumption patterns arose because of a 2009 increase in

Shortage Continued from F1 Health experts, including many who support the law, say there is little that the government or the medical profession will be able to do to close the gap by 2014, when the law begins extending coverage to about 30 million Americans. It typically takes a decade to train a doctor. “We have a shortage of every kind of doctor, except for plastic surgeons and dermatologists,” said Dr. G. Richard Olds, the dean of the new medical school at the University of California, Riverside, founded in part to address the region’s doctor shortage. “We’ll have a 5,000-physician shortage in 10 years, no matter what anybody does.”
An ‘invisible problem’ Experts describe a doctor shortage as an “invisible problem.” Patients still get care, but the process is often slow and difficult. In Riverside, it has left residents driving long distances to doctors, languishing on waiting lists, overusing emergency rooms and even forgoing care. “It results in delayed care and higher levels of acuity,” said Dustin Corcoran, the chief executive of the California Medical Association, which represents 35,000 physicians. People “access the health care system through the emergency department, rather than establishing a relationship with a primary care physician who might keep them from getting sicker.” In the Inland Empire, encompassing the counties of Riverside and San Bernardino, the shortage of doctors is already severe. The population of Riverside County swelled 42 percent in the 2000s, gaining more than 644,000 people. It has continued to grow despite the collapse of one of the country’s biggest property bubbles and a jobless rate of 11.8 percent in the RiversideSan Bernardino-Ontario metro area. But the growth in the number of physicians has lagged, in no small part because the area has trouble attracting doctors, who might make more money and prefer living in nearby Orange County or Los Angeles. A government council has recommended that a given region have 60 to 80 primary care doctors per 100,000 residents, and 85 to 105 specialists. The Inland Empire has about 40 primary care doctors and 70 specialists per 100,000 residents — the worst shortage in California, in both cases. Moreover, across the country, fewer than half of primary care clinicians were accepting new Medicaid patients as of 2008, making it hard for the poor to find care even when they are eligible for Medicaid. The expansion of Medicaid accounts for more than one-third of the overall growth in coverage in Obama’s health care law. Providers say they are bracing for the surge of the newly insured into an already strained system. Temetry Lindsey, the chief executive of Inland Behavioral & Health Services, which provides medical care to about 12,000 area residents, many of them low income, said she was speeding

the federal tobacco excise tax on cigarettes that made loose tobacco and cigars cheaper than cigarettes. Regulations prohibiting the addition of menthol and other additives to cigarettes are also less stringent for noncigarette products. The CDC has not historically tracked cigarette sales — that task fell to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. That agency stopped reporting consumption in 2007. CDC thus decided to take over the task because of the importance of smoking to Americans’ health. From 2000 to 2011, the agency reported, overall consumption of tobacco fell by 27.5 percent, from
patient-processing systems, packing doctors’ schedules tighter and seeking to hire more physicians. “We know we are going to be overrun at some point,” Lindsey said, estimating that the clinics would see new demand from 10,000 to 25,000 residents by 2014. She added that hiring new doctors had proved a struggle, in part because of the “stigma” of working in this part of California.
Aging population Across the country, a factor increasing demand, along with expansion of coverage in the law and simple population growth, is the aging of the baby boom generation. Medicare officials predict that enrollment will surge to 73.2 million in 2025, up 44 percent from 50.7 million this year. “Older Americans require significantly more health care,” said Dr. Darrell G. Kirch, the president of the Association of American Medical Colleges. “Older individuals are more likely to have multiple chronic conditions, requiring more intensive, coordinated care.” The pool of doctors has not kept pace, and will not, health experts said. Medical school enrollment is increasing, but not as fast as the population. The number of training positions for medical school graduates is lagging. Younger doctors are on average working fewer hours than their predecessors. And about a third of the country’s doctors are 55 or older, and nearing retirement. Physician compensation is also an issue. The proportion of medical students choosing to enter primary care has declined in the past 15 years, as average earnings for primary care doctors and specialists, like orthopedic surgeons and radiologists, have diverged. A study by the Medical Group Management Association found that in 2010, primary care doctors made about $200,000 a year. Specialists often made twice as much. The Obama administration has sought to ease the shortage. The health care law increases Medicaid’s primary care payment rates in 2013 and 2014. It also includes money to train new primary care doctors, reward them for working in underserved communities and strengthen community health centers. But the provisions within the law are expected to increase the number of primary care doctors by perhaps 3,000 in the coming decade. Communities around the country need about 45,000. Many health experts in California said that while they welcomed the expansion of coverage, they expected that the state simply would not be ready for the new demand. “It’s going to be necessary to use the resources that we have smarter” in light of the doctor shortages, said Dr. Mark D. Smith, who heads the California HealthCare Foundation, a nonprofit group. Smith said building more walk-in clinics, allowing nurses to provide more care and encouraging doctors to work in teams would all be part of the answer. Corcoran of the California Medical Association also said the

state would need to stop cutting Medicaid payment rates; instead, it needed to increase them to make seeing those patients economically feasible for doctors. More doctors might be part of the answer as well. The UC Riverside medical school is hoping to enroll its first students in August 2013, and is planning a number of policies to encourage its graduates to stay in the area and practice primary care. But Olds said changing how doctors provided care would be more important than minting new doctors. “I’m only adding 22 new students to this equation,” he said. “That’s not enough to put a dent in a 5,000-doctor shortage.”
450.7 billion cigarette equivalents to 326.6 billion. During that same period, however, the proportion of non-cigarette combustible tobacco products increased from 3.4 percent to 10.4 percent. The largest increases were a 482 percent increase in pipe tobacco and a 233 percent increase in large cigars. Some of that increase reflected a simple change in labeling to avoid the excise taxes. Much roll-your-own tobacco, for example, was relabeled as pipe tobacco, which is taxed at a lower rate — but the product continued to be marketed for making cigarettes. — Thomas H.

Caution can cut tennis injuries By Marjie Gilliam Cox Newspapers
DAYTON, Ohio — Tennis is one of the most popular of all sports, and for good reason. In addition to being a great calorie burner, playing tennis on a regular basis helps improve balance, endurance, agility, strength and overall fitness. While the risk of injury from playing tennis is relatively low compared to many other sports, it’s important to take steps to avoid problems.
Safety tips • Most tennis injuries can be prevented with proper training and conditioning, which includes warming up, stretching and dressing properly for the weather. Strengthening the abdominal, hip and lower-back muscles with resistance training exercises will help stabilize the core. • Proper racket selection, grip and proper stringing are important. A racket with some flexibility will provide some shock absorption and help athletes with arm or shoulder pain. The grip should be sized appropriately. A grip that is too large can cause the arm to tire quickly; one that is too small increases risk of elbow or arm strain. •Focus on proper technique. Correct serving and swinging are important to injury prevention, particularly to the wrist and elbow. The idea is to avoid relying only on the arm to hit the ball. Instead, use the body’s full strength. If you are new to the sport, consider taking lessons from a qualified instructor to develop adequate skills and technique.
ideas to help me mix it up? If you are losing enthusiasm for your current cardio routine, there are a number of options available, including: Interval training: This method breaks a workout up into increments of time, each with a different level of intensity. For example, instead of walking at the same pace, start with a warm-up pace for a set number of minutes, followed by a moderately winded pace for an equal number of minutes, and then a very brisk walking pace for the final interval. Cycle back through each interval for the duration of your workout. If you use a treadmill, you can increase the level of incline at each interval; for a stationary bike, elliptical machine or stair-stepper, increase tension. If per-

You can also alternate between strength training exercise and aerobic exercise within the same workout, or opt to perform a specific activity on a certain day of the week. Anaerobic interval training: This type of training involves performing an exercise at very high intensity (at least 85 percent of maximum heart rate) for a very short period of time, followed immediately by an easier exercise for an equal length of time. An example would be to sprint (forceful running) as hard as you can for 30 seconds and then walk for 30 seconds, sprint 30 seconds, walk 30 seconds, and so on. This is an advanced training method and should not be attempted by those unaccustomed to high-intensity activity. Be creative with your workouts, and have fun. — By Marjie Gilliam, Cox Newspapers
Yoga Continued from F1 The all-level yoga class is unique in that it’s a little harder to go inward and quiet the mind — which is usually the goal in yoga — when you’re doing it in a hub of river-oriented activity along the Deschutes. As the class quietly held poses, a loud and sudden “PSHHTT” sound blasted when a boater released the air from his inflatable craft. Kids yelled as they played nearby. Someone’s car stereo in the parking lot pumped music. There’s no climate control; the sun blazed down hot one moment, then a cloud would obscure the sun. The breeze wafted in the aroma of malt from the Deschutes Brewery downstream. An osprey flew overhead. But through this all, the yoga class went on. Blasing led a boat pose, in which the core of the body is working hard. “We’re going to use that in stand-up paddle today!” she said. One legged-balancing poses were “to prepare for paddling,” she reminded the class. Toward the end of the yoga session, Chip Booth, owner of Stand Up Paddle Bend, showed up and unloaded some paddleboards, life jackets and paddles. Kelley, the other yoga teacher, discussed how to carry the board to the water, how to hold the paddle, how to stroke, where to stand on the board, how to turn. Two people in the group had never been on a board before. Two people in the group brought their own boards. Everyone got in the river and paddled upstream, to the Bill Healy Bridge. Kelley demonstrated how to efficiently move the board up the river while using core muscles to pull the stroke. Ancillary muscles in the legs and hips were working just to balance and paddle. Kelley mentioned how much easier it was to teach people how to stand-up paddle after they’d done an hour of bodycentering yoga. At the turnaround point near the Bill Healy Bridge, the yoga began. The teachers didn’t lead a formal group lesson, but rather, talked to the individuals about what poses — asanas — they might enjoy

trying at their specific level of skill and comfort. They demonstrated how to start moving around on the paddleboards.
The experience I’ve done plenty of yoga in my life, but had never been on a stand-up paddleboard before, so I was happy to experiment with the simplest stretches while perching on a paddleboard. And this was when paddleboard yoga suddenly made sense to me. What has become, to me, an easy and somewhat mindless pose — downward dog — now had my full attention. Practicing the asana while the wide board wobbled slightly on the mild current made me aware of every inch of my body, and kept my mind fully focused on what it was doing. I was completely present. Then I just sat on my knees, soaked in the warm air, watched the setting sun’s light flicker on the water. I floated slowly through the canyon, past the grassy park and the geese, and observed everyone else in the class. One of the more daring and experienced practitioners tried all sorts of challenging poses,

formed correctly, interval training leads to better overall physical performance, with stronger muscles and more efficient cardiovascular system. Cross-training: With this method, you choose between different activities, performed within the same workout, or alternated workout to workout. Crosstraining is an ideal way to help prevent boredom and plateauing because it provides you with a constant challenge, both mentally and physically. An example of cross-training within the same workout would be to start with 10 minutes of walking, followed by 10 minutes of light jogging, followed by 10 minutes of stair climbing or biking. If cross-training workout to workout, you would choose a different exercise each session or week to week. For example, you might choose to walk on Monday, do the elliptical trainer on Tues-

headstands and arm balances. He laughed when he slipped off his board and dipped into the river, earning applause and cheers from others. Another woman, a more tentative participant who had never been on a board before, wore a life jacket the whole time and mostly paddled from her knees. But she made progress throughout the hour on the water, and grew visibly more comfortable. The paddleboard yoga class
is not particularly strenuous or challenging. I didn’t sweat or have sore muscles. But there’s a certain level of intimidation in just showing up to try it. Bend resident Kristine McConnell, 40, who works in tourism marketing for Central Oregon Visitors Association, said she first tried stand-up paddleboarding last summer as a new way to enjoy local lakes and rivers. She felt like she had a good sense of balance. She’s done yoga off and on for
a couple of years and has been snowboarding for decades. “I think that helps, feeling comfortable on some type of board,” she said. “But I don’t think you have to be experienced. I think anyone can get on a board and do it. “Yoga is an added bonus when you’re able to balance. You’re challenging yourself in different ways,” McConnell said. “I feel invigorated from it.” — Reporter: 541-383-0304, aaurand@bendbulletin.com
