have spent the days leading up toChristmas trying to navigate the HealthCare.gov website — with varying degrees of success. But even for those whosuccessfully enrolled for insurance coverage, that's only one big hurdle behind them.Thenext is understanding how their plan works. And that, new research suggests, will be a big challenge for the uninsured gaining coverage in the comingmonths andyears. Fewer than one infour uninsured Americans felt confident they understood nine basic insurance terms, such as"premium," "coinsurance" and "maximum annual out-of-pocket" charges. For those who currently havecoverage, that number hovered around 49 percent, with just fewer than half of those nowholding policies feeling like they had agood handle on theterms. "Confusion around theseconcepts would make it difficult for consumers to understand trade-offs between different health insurance plans," the study authors, led bySharon Long at the Urban Institute, wrote in the journal Health Affairs. "Low health literacy could reduce thegains for consumers, particularly ... if the consumers who doenroll face unexpected out-of-pocket expenses." Researchers found in this study, which relied on asample of more than 7,000 non-elderly adults both with and without insurance, that many struggled with the basic health insurance terms. Those with the most difficulty tended to bethose who were bilingual or Spanish speakers, younger peopleandthose with less than a high school education. While these groups hadthe lowest rates of understanding, that's not to say that other demographics did great: Among thosewhowere college graduates, just over half felt confident in understanding all nine terms.

The Department of Health

and Human Services has declined, so far, to provide an

age breakdown for the federal exchange, which is enrolling Americans in 36 states,

but earl y numbers from some states running their own exchange show that new enroll-

ees are skewing older, at least for now. In California, 21 percent of

the 109,296 who signed up as of Nov. 30 were between 18

and 34, slightly less than their share of the state's population. About 35 percent of enrollees were 55 and older. In Wash-

ington state, nearly 18 percent of the 20,144 enrollees as of Nov. 30 were between 18 and

34, while 41 percent were 55 and older. In Colorado, 18 percent of the 23,009 who have

enrolled as of Dec. 14 were between 18 and 34 while 28 per-

Coastal water ruling is counterproductive t hasn't happened yet, but the state of Oregon is in danger of osing some $2 million in federal dollars currently being spent to clean up its coastal waters. The reason? The state's effort isn't good enough for Northwest Environmental Advocates, a Portland-based environmental group. The environmentalgroup sued the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the federal Environmental Protection Agency in 2009, arguing the state's efforts to reduce indirect water pollution in coastal waters don't go far enough. Indirect pollution can come from such things as faulty septic systems, landslides and run-

off from logging roads. NOAA and the EPA have settled the lawsuit, and as part of the settlement they've agreed to disapprove Oregon's plan. That might make sense if, in fact, they believe the state is doing a terrible job of improving coastal waters. Yet the two agencies have approved 60 improvement measures to date, according to a state background paper on the issue. Three measures have not been approved. Meanwhile, the acting director of NOAA's Office of Ocean and Coastal Resource Management calls the state "a leader in coastal management."

The Oregon Department of Forestry notes that this summer it submitted plans to NOAA and the EPA on all three pollution sources: leaky septic systems, stormwater runoff after construction in urban areas

and logging. It also notes that the two federal agencies have not taken action against conditionally a pproved programs like Oregon's in 10 other states, those where no lawsuits have been brought. Instead, the agencies are working in those states to resolve problems without withdrawing funds. It argues, reasonably, that Oregon would receive similar treatment without the lawsuit. We can understand state officials' distress. Loss of the money would have a serious impact on the state's effort to do just what the two federal agencies want it to do. In fact, loss of the money makes sense

only if you buy the implicit argument in Northwest Environmental Advocates' spokeswoman's statement on the settlement. Piecemeal improvements aren't enough, she said. Rather, regulation must happen on a much broader scale. In other words, rather than striving for w orkable solutions, go in and demand instantaneous,

job-killing change.

freedom,one prompted by a tenured journalism professor writing a single (admittedly awful) tweet about the National Rifle Association. This new policy will effectively scare every employee of a Kansas university off the Internet. But should

She earned morethan $12 million in prize money, a record for women's tennis. In February, she became the oldest No. 1 in WTA rankings history and never left that perch.

award for Williams, following 2002 and 2009. Only two women have been chosen more often as APAthlete of the Year since the annual awards were first handed out in 1931. "Whenever I lose, I get more determined, and it gives me something more to work toward," Williams told the AP in an interview shortly before the start of the U.S. Open. "I don't get complacent, and I realize I needto work harder and I need to do better and I want to do better — or I wouldn't keep playing this game." The vote by news organizations was about as lopsided as many of Williams' matches this season. She received 55 of 96 votes, while Brittney Griner, a two-time AP Player of the Year in college basketball and the No. 1 pick in April's WNBA draft, finished second with 14. Swimmer Missy Franklin was next with 10.

sia's Cabinet hasapproved the allocation of nearly $50 million in extra subsidies for the organizers of the Sochi Olympics. TheCabinet's decision, reported by the RIANovosti news agency onWednesday, takes the total number of subsidies for the Sochi Organizing Committee to the equivalent of more than $420 million. TheCabinet said without elaboration that the extra moneywould help finance the committee's activities. The allocations for the organizing committee are a small share of the total Sochi Gamescosts that amount to $51 billion, making them the most expensive Olympics in history.

FOOTBALL COWbaySbring in Kitna as baCkuP QB—Muchhas been made of the Cowboys signing high school math teacher Jon Kitna out of retirement to figure into their quarterback puzzleagainst the Philadelphia Eagles onSunday. Almost every reference has mentioned the quarterback, who retired from theCowboysafter the 2011season, will earn about $53,000 for his Christmas week's work. Only Kitna, 41, is not keeping the money. It didn't come up in his Christmas Day media scrum in the locker room. But later, while relaxing on alocker room couch andreconnecting with radio play-by-play voice Brad Sham, Kitna said hewould be donating his NFL check to his school. Since retiring from the Cowboys, Kitna, who has15 seasonsand four teams on his NFLresume, hastaught math and coached football at Lincoln High School in his native Tacoma,Wash.

BOIIChiCk queStianS NFL OffSeaSOnWOrkaut limitS

— New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick is blaming recently instituted NFLrules shortening offseason practice time for what he claims to be anincreasing number of player injuries. Speaking during a conference call with Buffalo-area reporters this week, Belichick said players are morevulnerable to being hurt because they're less prepared. And hecalled the new rules limiting offseason workoutsincluding training camp — asbeing "the wrong approach." What's in question is whether injuries are, in fact, on the rise since thenew rules were put in place in 2011.NFLspokesman Michael Signora disputed Belichick, saying the leaguehas noevidence to back up his assertions. TheNFLclosely monitors injury data, but declined to release its numbers. — From wire reports

Thompson always had wanted to be a Laker, long before the Trail Blazers made him the No. 1 pick in the 1978 draft out of Minnesota, and even

before he changed the spelling of his first name in high school so he would stand out. He loved the Lakers of Jim McMillian and Happy Hairston and Gail Goodrich who won a league-record 33 games in a row and the NBA

Chicago Bulls, and Jordan the Finals' most valuable player. Those losses still irritate Thompson, like a fly in his Bahama Mama. "I was fortunate enough to win two, but I don't think about those that I won," said Thompson, whose con-

tract was bought out in October 1991, ending his NBA career when he was 36. "I appreciate them, I'm thankful for them, but I think about the two

was validated as a player and obviously I was going to be a lot more recognized as a player now." Life as a Laker was not always glamorous, though the players did not realize it then. They flew the

same commercial airlines as vacationing families and weary businessmen, often mingling in the boarding area and on the plane. "Fanswould come up to Magic and Kareem and ask for autographs," Thompson said. "We would get a lot of stares at all these 6-foot-9 guys walking through the airport." Traveling as a superstar still had its privileges, of course. Johnson and Abdul-Jabbar were among the players who were seated in first class, the others given two seats

Measles infections have risen dramatically this year, with outbreaks erupting in this state and others as the highly infectious virus is imported from abroad. An almost forgotten scourge in some countries, measles has made an astounding comeback in such unexpected parts of the world as Britain, the European continent and Israel, and it is in these regions where American travelers are contracting it.

"This isn't the failure of a vaccine," said CDC director Dr. Thomas Frieden. "This is the failure to vaccinate." There havebeen nearly three times as many measles cases nationally this year compared with each of the past13 years.

Getting directions By FRANK STEWART Tribune Content Agency

"I don't know why men won't get d irections," W endy, m y cl u b ' s feminist, remarked to me. "Men never get lost," I mumbled. "True, sometimes we don't know where we are." "Not only that," Wendy went on as if she hadn't heard me, "when somebody offers them directions free of charge,they won't take them." "Cy let you down again?" I asked. Wendy was today's East in a penny game and had cut her adversary Cy the Cynic as a partner. Against five spades, Cy led a low heart: nine, ace, ruff. South then lcd a trump.

one spade, you bid two hearts and he rebids two spades. What do you say? ANSWER: You have no attractive call. A rebid of three hearts would be perfect if forcing but would actually suggestfewer values.Bid three clubs, forcing. If partner bids 3NT next, pass and hope for the best. If he rebids three spades, raise to four spades. If he bids three diamonds, rebid three hearts. West dealer Both sides vulnerable NORTH

DISCARD

4IK J109 The Cynic took the ace, frowned and led a club. South ran the clubs for a diamond discard and made his contract. "What's the point of my giving you directions if y o u i g nore them?" Wendy growled at Cy. What did she mean? Cy should have noted Wendy's ace of hearts. The normal play would have been the king: the l owerranking of e quals. The ace, an unnecessary high card, was "suit preference" and told Cy to lead the higher-ranking minor suit if he got in.
