What are the ethics of using organs from the ER?

County told Bend that its UGB plan was lacking

By Rob Stein The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — In the hope of expanding a controversial form of organ donation into emergency rooms around the United States, a federally funded project has begun trying to obtain kidneys, livers and possibly other body parts from caraccident victims, heart-attack fatalities and other urgent-care patients.

Using a $321,000 grant Inside • How long are from the Department of the waiting Health and Hulists? man Services, Page A4 the emergency depar tments at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center-Presbyterian Hospital and Allegheny General Hospital in Pittsburgh have started rapidly identifying donors among patients whom doctors are unable to save and taking steps to preserve their organs so a transplant team can rush to try to retrieve them.

Obtaining organs from emergency room patients has long been considered off-limits in the United States because of ethical and logistical concerns. This pilot project aims to investigate whether it is feasible and, if so, to encourage other hospitals nationwide to follow. So far, neither hospital has yet gotten any usable organs.

Many north Lake County residents are opposed to solar farm projects, like this one northeast of Christmas Valley. Companies have bought or are hoping to lease more than 1,300 acres for commercial solar arrays in the Christmas Valley area.

SALEM — If Bend’s urban growth boundary plan is eventually struck down, Deschutes County officials will be able to say, “I told you so.”

As city officials prepare to defend their proposed growth plan to the state Land Conservation and Development Commission later this week, correspondence obtained under Oregon Public Records Law shows that starting four years ago, county officials were privately warning the city that its methods would not stand up to legal scrutiny.

The e-mails and memos sent by county planners raise some of the same questions that state planning staff raised in its January report rejecting the city’s proposed urban growth boundary expansion.

The correspondence underlines the extent to which the city is mounting a high-stakes challenge to conventional wisdom about Oregon’s land use law.

CROOK COUNTY

CHRISTMAS VALLEY — When Gary Perkins heard that solar companies were buying nearby fields and planning to fill them with commercial solar arrays, the Christmas Valley alfalfa farmer snapped up two parcels in front of his log cabin.

He didn’t want to see the sage brush replaced by solar panels, he said.

“But there’s a limit; I can’t buy thousands of acres,” Perkins said.

At least three companies have bought or are trying to lease more than 1,300 acres in the Christmas Valley area to take advantage of the sunny skies. The first row of solar panels is already in the ground, three other projects have been approved, and two more will be considered next month.

Solar company officials say the projects will bring tens of thousands of dollars of tax revenue to the area, and note that they are private property owners building projects allowed by the county.

BOSTON — It remains the most tantalizing art heist mystery in the world.

In the early hours of March 18, 1990, two thieves walked into Boston’s elegant Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum disguised as police officers and bound and gagged two guards using handcuffs and duct tape. For the next 81 minutes, they sauntered around the ornate galleries, removing masterworks including those by Rembrandt, Vermeer, Degas and Manet, cutting some of the largest pieces from their frames.

By the time they disappeared, they would be credited with the largest art theft in history, making off with upward of a half-billion dollars in loot far too hot to sell.

Are you fluent in nutrition labels?

By Laura Casey

Figure cost per use when deciding how to spend your cash

Contra Costa Times

You’ve probably heard some of the rules of the road when it comes shopping healthfully at the grocery store: Don’t go shopping hungry because you’re likely to buy more than you need. Shop the perimeter of the store, where you’ll find the fresh stuff — breads, meats, vegetables and fruits.

But perhaps the rule that is most perplexing is the one that asks shoppers to read the nutrition facts labels on products before buying them. Many people simply don’t know how to read the government-required label, and few understand what the label is saying if they bother to look at it.

Yet food experts say reading the label, and knowing what it says, is vitally important.

“We should all take responsibility for our own health, and it’s really hard to do that when you don’t know what’s going into your own body,” says Christine Kopf, a dietitian with the Native American Health Center-WIC in Oakland, Calif. “Good labels are one of the only ways we can learn about what goes in our mouths.”

The nutrition label has been mandated in the United States for nearly two decades under the Nutrition Labeling and Education Act and is on more than 6 billion food products. Recently, that label has been applied to the items on fast food menus.

Compare similar purchases Mary DeBusman, a nutritionist with Alameda County Family Health Services and a professor at Merritt College in Oakland, says considering the label when you buy, say, a can of soup can help you make more healthful choices.

“It’s especially good when you are considering like items,” she says, noting that similar cans of soups or chilis can offer widely varying fats, salts and nutrients.

The first portion of the label lists serving size and the number of servings in the container you’re buying. DeBusman says this is the first pitfall for shoppers who only look at the calories.

“Most people just zero in on the calories,” she says. But a tiny pint of ice cream, for example, could have four servings with 280 calories per serving.

If the label reader sees only the 280 calories and digs into the entire pint, they could be ingesting 1120 calories in one sitting.

The calories, or energy reading per serving is, again, helpful only if you know how large a serving is.

“We’re eating humongous portions,” DeBusman says.

Counting the calories in regards to portion size is the only way to know you’re getting the right amount, she adds. The USDA says that foods with 40 calories per serving or less are low-calorie foods, foods with 100 calories are moderate and foods with 400 calories or more are high-calorie foods.

If you don’t know how many calories you should be eating, DeBusman says, 2,000 is a good start because “many people are eating way more than that now.”

Each person needs a different amount of calories per day based on weight, height and activity level, which is measured with a complex Estimated Energy Requirements formula. Several Web sites, including www. nutrihand.com, can help you estimate the amount of calories you should consume for your particular needs.

A section down from the calorie information is the nutrients portion of the label, and the first line offers the total amount of fat in the food and what percentage of fat recommended in a 2,000 calorie daily diet that amount contains.

The USDA says most people get enough fat, cholesterol and salt nutrients, perhaps even more than they need. The organization recommends that when people look at the total fat

Smart choices? Calories? Calories per serving? Experts suggest consumers read the nutrition facts on food before making a purchase. Many people, however, don’t understand what the information on the label means.

Deciphering the buzz words

percentages in these sections is preferable.

What does “Low calorie” or “Lean” really mean? They are among the many buzz words on the packages of the foods you eat. They are not just tools to convince you to buy them; the FDA has rules about what these words mean. Here’s a quick guide: • “Calorie Free”: There are fewer than 5 calories per serving.

• “Low Calorie”: There are 40 calories or less per serving or 120 or less in meals or main dishes.

• “Sugar Free”: There are fewer than 0.5 grams of sugar per serving.

• “Fat Free”: There are fewer than 0.5 grams of total fat per serving.

• “Low Fat”: The food contains 3 grams of total fat or less per serving.

• “Low Saturated Fat”: The food contains 1 gram or less per serving.

• “Low Sodium”: The food contains less than 140 mg of sodium per serving.

• “Very Low Sodium”: The food contains less than 35 mg per serving.

• “Low Cholesterol”: The food contains less than 20 mg of cholesterol per serving.

• “High” as in “high in protein”: One serving of the food contains 20 percent or more of the daily value for a particular nutrient.

• “Good Source” as in “good source of calcium”: One serving of the food contains 10 to 19 percent of the daily value for a particular nutrient.

Check the ingredients A food that is labeled “high in calcium” must have at least 20 percent of the daily value of calcium, while products labeled “contains calcium,” must have at least 10 to 19 percent of the daily value of calcium. Similar labels are given to foods that are deemed “high in protein,” meaning they must have a certain percentage of the daily value to merit that label.

As far as the sweet stuff is concerned, the USDA suggests when comparing products you buy the one with the least amount of sugar. Depending on the amount of calories you should consume, you should limit your sugar intake to 22 to 66 grams per day, according to the food pyramid. Many products, such as yogurt, have widely varying amounts of sugar in them.

DeBusman warns that all consumers should check the listed ingredients as well and avoid all products with hydrogenated oils, or trans fat. A product could have 0 grams of trans fat listed on the label if it has less than .5 grams total per serving.

All amounts of trans fats should be avoided, she says. Look for “partially hydrogenated” oils on the ingredients list.

And Kopf suggests shoppers pay particular attention to the ingredients label when buying products labeled “whole wheat.”

Only those with whole grains listed as the first ingredient should be purchased, she says.

www.educate.com

portion of the label, they should note that a label reading 20 percent or more is high for total fat.

The same is true for saturated fat, cholesterol and sodium.

Bad fat, good fat Buying products with lower percentage numbers, closer to 5 percent, are the best choices, the experts say. Saturated fats, found mainly in animal products, and trans fats, found in processed and fried foods and baked goods, are considered “bad fats,” and you should have as little of these as possible, experts say.

Monounsaturated fats, found in nuts and olive oil, help lower bad cholesterol and boost good cholesterol and polyunsaturated fats, those found in salmon and fish oil, do the same. Both are considered “good fats,” according to the USDA. Most Americans, the USDA says, don’t get enough dietary fiber, vitamin A, vitamin C, calcium, and iron in their diets. That is why these are also important listings on the label.

A good rule of thumb for reading these numbers is that if the product has 5 percent of the daily value, that is too low and 20 percent or more is high.

WASHINGTON — After laying the groundwork for a decisive vote this week on the Senate’s health care bill, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi suggested Monday that she might instead attempt to pass the measure without having members vote on it.

Instead, Pelosi, D-Calif., would rely on a procedural sleight of hand: The House would vote on a more popular package of fixes to the Senate bill; under the House rule for that HEALTH vote, passage CARE would signify REFORM that lawmakers “deem” the health care bill to be passed.

The tactic — known as a “selfexecuting rule” or a “deem and pass” — has been commonly used, although never to pass legislation as momentous as the $875 billion health care measure.

It is one of three options that Pelosi said she is considering for a late-week House vote, but she added that she prefers it because it would politically protect lawmakers who are reluctant to publicly support the bill.

“It’s more insider and processoriented than most people want to know,” the speaker said in a roundtable discussion with bloggers Monday. “But I like it,” she said, “because people don’t have to vote on the Senate bill.”

Republicans quickly condemned the strategy, framing it as an effort to avoid responsibility for passing the bill, and some suggested that Pelosi’s plan would be unconstitutional.

Financial reform bill seeks more oversight

By Sewell Chan New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — The 1,336page bill to overhaul financial regulation that Senate Democrats put forward Monday with the backing of the Obama administration calls for Washington to play a more active role in policing Wall Street.

The plan would create a ninemember council, led by the treasury secretary, to watch for systemic risks, and direct the Federal Reserve to supervise the nation’s largest and most interconnected financial institutions, not just banks.

But the bill, which would amount to the most sweeping change in financial rules since the Depression, would preserve much of the existing regulatory architecture, which has been criticized for being too fragmented. And it would rely on a new and untested mechanism for seizing and liquidating a huge financial company on the verge of failure, one that would diminish, but not eliminate, the likelihood of future bailouts.

Israel feeling rising anger from U.S. Standoff puts both sides in tough situations politically

By Mark Landler and Ethan Bronner New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — An illtimed municipal housing announcement in Jerusalem has mutated into one of the most serious conflicts between the United States and Israel in two decades, leaving a politically embarrassed Israeli government scrambling to respond to a tough list of demands by the Obama administration.

The Obama administration has put Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in a difficult

political spot at home by insisting that the Israeli government halt a plan to build housing units in East Jerusalem.

The administration also wants Netanyahu to commit to substantive negotiations with the Palestinians, after more than a year in which the peace process has been moribund.

With the administration’s special envoy, George Mitchell, suddenly delaying his planned trip to Israel, the administration was expecting a call from Netanyahu, after a tense exchange last week with Secre-

tary of State Hillary Clinton.

On Monday, however, Netanyahu sounded a defiant note, telling the Israeli parliament that construction of Jewish housing in Jerusalem was not a matter for negotiation.

He is struggling to balance an increasingly unhappy ally in Washington with the restive right wing of his coalition government.

The prospects for peace in the Middle East seemed murkier than ever, as a year’s worth of frustration on the part of President Barack Obama and

his aides seemed to boil over in its furious response to the housing announcement, which spoiled a visit to Israel by Vice President Joe Biden.

But the diplomatic standoff also has repercussions for the Obama administration. Its blunt criticism of Israel — delivered publicly by Clinton in two television interviews on Friday and reiterated Sunday

by Obama’s political advisor, David Axelrod — has set off a storm in Washington, with pro-Israel groups and several prominent lawmakers criticizing the administration for unfairly singling out a staunch American ally.

Under criticism, U.S. reins in special forces in Afghanistan

By Richard A. Oppel Jr. and Rod Nordland New York Times News Service

KABUL — Gen. Stanley McChrystal, the top U.S. commander in Afghanistan, has brought most U.S. Special Operations forces under his direct control for the first time, out of concern over continued civilian casualties and disorganization among units in the field.

“What happens is, sometimes at cross-purposes, you got one hand doing one thing and one hand doing the other, both trying to do the right thing but working without a good outcome,” McChrystal said in an interview.

Critics, including Afghan officials, human rights workers and some field commanders of conventional U.S. forces, say that Special Operations forces have been responsible for a large number of the civilian casualties in Afghanistan and operate by their own rules.

Maj. Gen. Zahir Azimi, the chief spokesman for the Afghan Defense Ministry, said McChrystal had told Afghan officials he was taking the action because of concern that some American units were not following his orders to make limiting civilian casualties a paramount objective.

“These special forces were not accountable to anyone in the country, but General McChrystal and we carried the burden of the guilt for the mistakes they committed,” he said. “Whenever there was some problem with the special forces we didn’t know who to go to, it was muddled and unclear who was in charge.”

McChrystal has made reducing civilian casualties a cornerstone of his new counterinsurgency strategy, and his campaign has had some success: last year, civilian deaths attributed to the U.S. military were cut by 28 percent, although there were 596 civilian deaths attributed to coalition forces, according to U.N. figures. Afghan and U.N. officials blame Special Operations troops for most of those deaths.

Rear Adm. Gregory J. Smith, McChrystal’s deputy chief of staff for communications, cautioned against putting undue blame on Special Operations forces. Since night raids are dangerous, and most mis-

Critics of U.S. Special Operations forces, including some in the Afghan army, say the troops have been responsible for a large number of the civilian casualties and operate by their own rules.

Pentagon investigating alleged spy operation, official says A Defense Department official is under investigation for allegedly hiring private contractors to gather intelligence on insurgents in Afghanistan and Pakistan, a U.S. official said Monday.

The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the case, told The Associated Press that Michael D. Furlong directed a defense contract to gather information about the region that could be shared with military units. After military officials suspected that he was using Defense Department money for an off-the-books spy operation, defense officials shut down that part of the contract, the official said.

The story was first reported by The New York Times in Monday’s editions, quoting unidentified military and business sources as saying that Furlong, now a senior civilian employee at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio hired subcontractors who had former U.S. intelligence and special forces operatives on their payrolls. The newspaper said some of the information collected by the sions take place at night, most of them are carried out by the more highly trained special groups. In January, McChrystal issued restrictions on night raids.

Smith said that McChrystal had issued the new directive on Special Operations forces within “the last two or three weeks.” While it is being circulated for comment within the military and has not been formally announced, McChrystal

Karzai ‘very angry’ at arrest of Taliban boss, aide says KABUL — The Afghan government was holding secret talks with the Taliban’s No. 2 when he was captured in Pakistan, and the arrest infuriated President Hamid Karzai, according to one of Karzai’s advisers.

The detention of Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar — second in the Taliban only to one-eyed Mullah Mohammed Omar — has raised new questions about whether the U.S. is willing to back peace discussions with leaders who harbored the terrorists behind the Sept. 11 attacks.

Karzai “was very angry” when he heard that the Pakistanis had picked up Baradar with an assist from U.S. intelligence, the adviser said.

Besides the ongoing talks, he said Baradar had “given a green light” to participating in a three-day peace jirga that Karzai is hosting next month.

Priest close to pope is suspended in scandal over abuse

By Nicholas Kulish New York Times News Service

MUNICH — The priest at the center of a German sex-abuse scandal that embroiled Pope Benedict XVI continued working with children for more than 30 years, even though the pope was personally involved in his case and a German court convicted the priest of molesting boys.

The priest, Peter Hullermann, who had previously been identified only by the first initial of his last name, was suspended from his duties only on Monday. That was three days after the church acknowledged that the pope, then Archbishop Joseph Ratzinger, had responded to early accusations of molestation by allowing the priest to move to Munich for therapy in 1980.

Hundreds of victims have come forward in recent months in Germany with accounts of sexual and other physical abuse from decades past. But no case has captured the attention of the nation like that of Hullermann, not only because of the involvement of the future pope, but also because of the impunity that allowed a child molester to continue to work with altar boys and girls for decades after his conviction.

Benedict not only served as the archbishop of the diocese where the priest worked, but also later as the cardinal in charge of reviewing sexual abuse cases for the Vatican.

Yet until the archdiocese of Munich and Freising announced that Hullermann had been suspended on Monday, he continued to serve in a series of Bavarian parishes.

In 1980, the future pope reviewed the case of Hullermann, who was accused of sexually abusing boys in the Diocese of Essen, including forcing an 11-year-old boy to perform oral sex. The future pope transferred him to Munich. On Friday, a deputy took responsibility for allowing the priest to return to full pastoral duties shortly afterward. Six years later, Hullermann was convicted of sexually abusing children in the Bavarian town of Grafing.

Solar Continued from A1 “If you just look out here, at the thousands of acres of sage brush, there’s lots of places where you could put this,” Perkins said.

“This is getting shoved down our throat.”

At the same time, the state Department of Land Conservation and Development is considering whether future solar projects in the area will need to get an exemption from land use planning laws.

Projects proposed for the area include one by GreenWing Energy America Corp., which has applied to lease 640 acres of state land to install anywhere from 50 to 104 megawatts of power. A Washington dentist is developing a site northeast of town, and started construction this winter.

And Obsidian Finance Group has spent more than $541,000 to buy about 765 acres in the Christmas Valley area, according to Lake County assessor Phil Israel. The company has the county’s conditional OK to site three solar arrays in the area, each of which will cost between $25 million and $28 million, and the county will consider two more next month. Additional permits would be required before construction, however.

Oregon land use laws say commercial energy projects on land zoned for agriculture can’t be bigger than 20 acres, said Jon Jinings, community services specialist with the Department of Land Conservation and Development.

Most of the solar projects cover more than 20 acres.

Lake County determined that since the land wasn’t commercially viable farmland, and a groundwater moratorium means no one could irrigate it, the rule didn’t apply, said Ken Gerschler, planning director with Lake County.

The state is working to deter-

UGB Continued from A1 State land use goals encourage more compact urban development in order to preserve forest and farmland. The law requires a complicated process of fact-finding and future growth projections to determine where a city can grow in the most efficient way possible.

However, Bend officials say they pursued a growth plan that focuses more on preserving neighborhood livability and character, with less density than, say, Portland.

However, in a series of e-mails and memos in 2006 and 2007, county planners repeatedly pointed out perceived inconsistencies between the city’s early assumptions and state law. “Again, from the county’s standpoint, we want to make sure the city has a factual basis” for its expansion, county Principal Planner Peter Gutowsky wrote in a March 22, 2007, e-mail to city planning staff.

Asked about the county criticisms, city officials maintain that their approach, of applying for a bigger boundary expansion than county planning staff deemed legally justifiable, is the best for the city’s residents.

“We want to work within the law,” said City Manager Eric King, but he added that the county’s critique was not the city’s paramount concern.

“What we were trying to do was put forward a proposal that really reflects the will of this community and not just one stakeholder.”

City officials say that in response to the county’s criticisms, they improved their approach and fixed the flaws that were the county’s main focus. For instance, the city’s initial push to bring all of Juniper Ridge inside the boundary was drastically scaled down.

However, critics of the city’s growth plan say that many of the perceived flaws remain in the city’s current proposal. For instance, the county questioned the amount of land the city wanted to bring in, as well as whether the city had fully planned for infrastructure needs.

Aside from the Juniper Ridge change, “Virtually none of (the county’s criticisms) have been addressed,” said Toby Bayard, a Hunnell United Neighbor member who has challenged the city’s growth plan.

The city has already spent $4 million on its approach and, depending on the state’s response, could be on the hook for as much as $1.5 million more.

Paul Dewey, a lawyer for Central Oregon LandWatch, which is also appealing the city’s plan, says the correspondence shows much of the city’s spending was wasted on pursuing development of Juniper Ridge, although it clearly wouldn’t be the best direction for the city to grow under state law. He said the correspondence proves that it’s not just the state Department of Land Conservation and Development that has problems

Taxes, funding

— many of which were echoed at a meeting of the Concerned Citizens of North Lake County later that evening.

It’s a drastic — and sudden — change to the landscape and lifestyle, they said.

Perkins said that when he moved to the area 25 years ago, there was no telephone service and no paved roads to his property.

“You come out and you build the Western lifestyle,” he said.

“This is what we like.”

And it’s a shock, he said, to see one solar project after another going into place.

“You can take a little bit of change in a community, but not a lot. And not overnight,” Perkins said.

But even beyond the impact to Christmas Valley, solar projects are using public funding, via state and federal tax credits, that residents are opposed to.

About half of the Obsidian project’s financing will come from tax credits.

“Everyone in the U.S., everyone in Oregon, should be concerned about all this public money going into this,” Morse said.

But Lake County is making efforts to encourage renewable energy development of all kinds, Gerschler said, to bring property taxes and jobs to the area.

Obsidian’s projects could bring in between $50,000 and $100,000 a year in property taxes, after a three-year abatement period, Gregory noted.

And if they can get someone to buy the power and do enough financing, they hope to expand even further in the Christmas Valley area.

“We’re hoping to do more in the future,” Gregory said.

mine if that is the case.

“We’re trying to figure out if we agree with that interpretation or not,” Jinings said.

The decisions the county has already made will stand, Jinings said, because they have already been put in place. But if the state agency decides it doesn’t agree with the Lake County’s interpretation, it could advise the county that future solar applicants need to also apply for a land use exception — a more complicated process than the conditional approval process.

Other concerns Beyond land use questions, Christmas Valley residents are concerned about what will hap-

with the city’s reasoning.

“The way the city has been portraying the issue is that DLCD has been picking on them,” he sad.

“But if you read these e-mails the county was saying the same thing to them — in fact more aggressively than DLCD.” Starting in 2007, according to the correspondence and interviews with city and county officials, Bend staff urged the county to essentially butt out.

The county agreed to take more of a sidelines role — but only after establishing that the city, and not the county, would bear the responsibility and cost to defend what county staff considered a flawed proposal.

“There was certainly concerns about the time and effort that would have been involved in (defending) a plan that we felt may have had some flaws in it,” said County Administrator Dave Kanner. He added that the county “was in a largely advisory role to the city, and if the city didn’t want to take our advice, we couldn’t force them to.”

Damian Syrnyk, the city’s senior planner, said that if the city had followed the county’s advice, it would have led to a smaller expansion that likely wasn’t acceptable to the City Council. He echoed other city officials that the DLCD and county staff may be interpreting state law too conservatively.

“There’s a lot of uncertainty in what we’re doing right now,” he added. “By pushing more of the envelope and looking at a bigger boundary we are going against (the) kind of policy direction we’d get from the county and the state.

“We are getting into some uncharted territory and raising some issues that will be difficult for the commission and the department to resolve.”

On Wednesday, city staff will take the seven members of the LCDC on a tour of Bend. The members are appointed by the governor and include real estate-affiliated interests as well as local officials from other parts of the state.

On Thursday and Friday, the commissioners will hear the city’s appeal. After that, the LCDC ruling can be appealed to the Oregon Court of Appeals.

pen to the solar sites after a company is finished.

“At some point, panels wear out,” said Marvin Morse, a real estate agent in Christmas Valley.

“At some point they’re going to be sitting out there, just sitting.”

Several of the residents want a cleanup bond, or something that will guarantee that the panels will be removed, and the site restored, if the project shuts down.

But Gerschler, the county planner, said that the solar industry has made it clear that if the county decides to require a bond, the companies won’t develop there.

The county is, however, considering establishing a fee that companies would have to pay to help with any cleanup costs.

And Todd Gregory, assistant

vice president with Obsidian, said that if solar panels become outdated, project owners will just switch them out. And he noted that if it was another business — like a car dealership or a grocery store — those facilities aren’t required to have a cleanup bond.

However, for larger projects that Oregon’s Energy Facility Siting Council permits, companies are required to have a bond or letter of credit to protect the local government and the state from having to pay to restore sites. And in the state’s draft suggestions for counties considering renewable energy projects, a bond or some form of credit is recommended as well.

Crook and Jefferson counties are both in the process of

The waiting lists

Continued from A1 “This is about helping people who have declared themselves to be donors, but die in a place where donation is currently not possible,” said Clifton Callaway, an associate professor of emergency medicine at the University of Pittsburgh who is leading the project. “It’s also about helping the large number of people awaiting transplants who could die waiting because of the shortage of organs.”

Critics say the program represents a troubling attempt to bring a questionable form of organ procurement into an even more ethically dicey situation: the tumultuous environment of an ER, where more than ever it raises the specter of doctors preying on dying patients for their organs.

“There’s a fine line between methods that are pioneering and methods that are predatory,” said Leslie Whetstine, a bioethicist at Walsh University in Ohio. “This seems to me to be in the latter category. It’s ghoulish.”

How it’s been done For decades, most hearts, lungs, kidneys, livers and other organs obtained for transplants in the United States have come from patients who have been pronounced dead in a hospital after a complete cessation of brain activity, known as brain death, was carefully determined.

But because thousands of people die each year waiting for organ transplants, the federal government has begun promoting an alternative that involves surgeons taking organs, within minutes, from patients whose hearts have stopped beating but who have not been declared brain-dead. The faster organs are retrieved, the better the chances they will be usable.

Although increasingly common, the practice remains controversial because of questions about whether organ preservation and removal might begin before patients are technically dead, and because of fears that doctors might not do everything possible to save patients and may even hasten their deaths, to increase the chance of obtaining organs.

In the United States, the practice, known as “donation

The United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) collects and manages data about transplants taking place in the United States. It administers the Organ Procurement and Transportation Network established by Congress in 1984.

Waiting List Candidates (as of March 14): Kidney.......................... 83,879 Liver............................. 15,875 Heart ............................ 3,150 Lung ............................ 1,854 Heart/Lung .................. 71 Pancreas ...................... 1,481 Kidney/Pancreas ......... 2,214 Intestine ....................... 239 after cardiac death,” or DCD, is being done only on patients in the intensive-care unit or other parts of the hospital for whom the possibility of death has been long anticipated, and there has been time to methodically assess their condition and make sure family members are comfortable with the decision. Each hospital can decide whether and how to perform the procedure.

In 2008, the Children’s Hospital in Colorado sparked intense debate with a federally funded DCD pilot project that involved taking hearts from babies 75 seconds after they were removed from life support. After an intensive review, the hospital restarted the program about two months ago but required that surgeons wait two minutes.

The University of Pittsburgh started screening patients last year, and Allegheny started within the past month.

Many ethicists and transplant experts and advocates say the Pittsburgh emergency room experiment is worth pursuing as long as it is designed to include protections, especially for patient care.

“There are strict firewalls in place,” said Jim Bowman, the medical director for the transplantation division at the Health Resources and Services Administration, which is funding the project. “This is potentially a new source of organs that up until now have been neglected.”

Others remain wary. One concern is that under the program, doctors will take organs

adopting renewable energy ordinances to guide the siting of solar projects in Central Oregon.

Crook County is holding public meetings this month and hopes to have guidelines by April.

Jefferson County is holding a meeting at the end of March, and hopes to start talking about solar-related questions — including where to site farms, and what to do about the 20-acre rule for farmland, said Wayne Pearson, Jefferson County economic development manager.

from people who have agreed to become donors by checking off a box on their driver’s license or by signing up on a state registry, and will not seek a family member’s consent if one is not present.

“The problem is there’s no real informed consent in driver’s license designations,” said David Crippen, an associate professor of critical-care medicine at the University of Pittsburgh. “The computer asks, ‘Would you like to be a donor — yes or no.’ … Many people may be consenting to something that they really don’t understand.”

Some experts worry that the practice could send subtle signals to doctors and nurses that could influence how hard they work to save patients.

‘People are going to wonder’ “When you do this stuff in such close proximity to treating the patient, the people in the emergency room will quickly start to think, ‘This is a potential organ donor,’ even when they are treating the patient,” said Michael Grodin, a medical ethicist at Boston University. “People are going to wonder, if they are being treated in the ER, ‘Are the transplant people going to swoop down to get my organs?’”

The practice could backfire by making an already skeptical public less likely to designate themselves as organ donors, several experts said.

“Imagine you have a 20-yearold inner-city kid who gets shot.

Twenty minutes later, a family member comes in and says, ‘What happened?’ They’re told, ‘We tried to save him but couldn’t, and he had an organ donor card so we

took an organ,’” said University of Pennsylvania bioethicist Arthur Caplan. “You can imagine they’re going to think, ‘Did you really do everything you could to save him?’”

The project’s organizers have taken several steps to address the concerns, Callaway said. No one will check whether a patient is an organ donor until after the patient has been declared dead, he said. The medical personnel involved in trying to save patients will be completely separate from those involved in obtaining their organs.

“If I were simultaneously given the task for being part of the transplant team, and that was in the back of my head, I might have some conflicting priority that your death may benefit someone else,” Callaway said.

Some critics question whether patients pronounced dead in the emergency room meet the official criteria for organ donation, or whether there are enough safeguards in place in case someone pronounced dead unexpectedly revives — which can happen, though very rarely. The Pittsburgh protocol requires only that doctors wait two minutes after death is pronounced before taking steps to preserve organs.

“There’s no consensus regarding how long CPR must be performed before death is determined as irreversible. In other words, when in the resuscitation process does the patient transition from being treated as a patient to a donor?” Whetstine asked. “Are such patients really dead after resuscitation efforts end and after a time interval of two minutes of cessation of circulation elapses?”

Nun Continued from A1 Since she became the academic adviser for Xavier athletics in 1985, every men’s basketball player who has played as a senior has left with a diploma.

“Sometimes she’ll schedule an appointment or an academic meeting right in the middle of practice,” said Xavier coach Chris Mack, whose team will play Minnesota in the first round on Friday. “I’ll say, ‘Sister, we have practice at 4.’

She’ll say, ‘No, this is important.’”

Apparently, such meticulous shepherding of college athletes toward college degrees does not occur throughout the 65-team field for the NCAA tournament, which begins Thursday and culminates in the Final Four three weekends from now.

This season, 19 percent of the tournament teams have graduation rates below 40 percent, according to a study released Monday by the Institute for Diversity and Ethics in Sport at the University of Central Florida. Across 36 sports monitored by the NCAA, men’s basketball has the lowest graduation rates, with fewer than two-thirds of players earning degrees.

NCAA’s dark side It is an unseemly side to March Madness, a wildly popular carnival noted for feel-good underdog stories and buzzer-beating thrillers that ultimately produce a national champion.

But teams that underperform in the classroom are attracting increasing attention. The NCAA began tracking and publicizing the Academic Progress Rate for individual sports programs, by college, in 2004; those that fall below certain standards can be hit with penalties like reduced scholarship numbers. In January, Education Secretary Arne Duncan urged the NCAA to redouble its efforts.

The NCAA notes that graduation rates for basketball players have slowly risen in recent years and are slightly higher than those

Sister Rose Ann Fleming, the academic adviser for Xavier University athletics, is a perfect 77-0 when it comes to getting men’s basketball players in their senior years to leave with diplomas. for the general student population.

But colleges like Xavier are leaning more heavily than ever on academic advisers. Xavier’s basketball team has the tournament’s 11th-highest APR, which measures academic eligibility, retention and graduation rates. And people there know who to thank.

“Our alumni over the years have told me that they’re so proud of the graduation rates,” Fleming said over a post-Mass coffee at Starbucks last week during the Atlantic 10 Conference tournament in Atlantic City. “They don’t want to hear about Xavier, or any university, using students athletically and then dumping them without a degree.”

She was dressed not in a habit, but in gray Nike sweats with Xavier’s Musketeer logo and white tennis shoes. Her hair, nearly all white, is cropped above the ears.

She wears a heavy gold cross on a chain around her neck, representing her order, the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur. She cannot help smiling when she talks.

“She’s not that nun you had in first grade that hits you across the hand with the ruler,” said Mack, the first-year coach who has known Fleming since he was a player at Xavier in the early 1990s and through several years as an assistant coach there.

She has lived on campus since 1983, when she was teaching at Xavier, in a dorm that for a long time housed the men’s basketball team. (For a couple of years, she lived across the hall from David West, now an NBA forward — and a Xavier graduate.)

She rises at 4 a.m. for an hour of prayer and meditation. Then she usually spends an hour or more at the computer, often researching law cases that she takes on for Volunteer Lawyers for the Poor.

(A law degree is one of several she holds, including master’s degrees in English, business administration and theology, and a doctorate in education administration.) She exercises on an elliptical trainer, lifts weights and swims. Daily Mass is at 8.

Heist Continued from A1 Now, 20 years later, investigators are making a renewed push to recover the paintings. The FBI has resubmitted DNA samples for updated testing, the museum is publicizing its $5 million, noquestions-asked reward, and the U.S. attorney’s office is offering immunity.

Two billboards on Interstates 93 and 495 are also advertising the reward.

“Our priority is to get the paintings back,” U.S. Attorney Carmen Ortiz said. “If someone had information or had possession of the paintings, immunity from prosecution is negotiable.”

Investigators say they’ve largely ruled out some of the more popular theories, from the specter of a recluse billionaire art collector to the hand of notorious Boston gangster Whitey Bulger.

More likely, investigators say, the two were homegrown thieves with knowledge of the museum’s security system — including the absence of a dead man’s switch that would have alerted police once the guards became incapacitated. They might have even underestimated the breathtaking scope of their crime.

“I picture the thieves waking up the next morning and looking in the papers and saying, ‘We just pulled off the largest art theft in history,’” said Anthony Amore, the museum’s security director.

The theft The theft began around 1:24 a.m. when the two white men — one in his late 20s to mid-30s, the other in his early to mid-30s — overpowered the guards, according to an FBI report.

The two took their time. A full 24 minutes passed before they were first picked up on a motion detector entering the museum’s second floor Dutch room, where the most valuable paintings were seized.

Investigators believe the first nabbed was Rembrandt’s iconic “Storm on the Sea of Galilee,” measuring about 5-by-4 feet and dating to 1633. The frame was laid on the floor where one of the thieves neatly sliced it from its frame.

Next was “Landscape with an Obelisk” by Govaert Flinck. Other stolen masterpieces included a second Rembrandt also cut from its frame, “A Lady and Gentleman in Black” from 1633.

The most valuable piece was Vermeer’s “The Concert,” an oil painting measuring about 21⁄2 -by2 feet from 1660 — one of only 36 known works by the Dutch mas-

Anthony Amore, the current security director at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston, stands beside empty frames from which thieves took “Storm on the Sea of Galilee,” center rear, by Rembrandt and “The Concert,” right front, by Vermeer. “I picture the thieves waking up the next morning and looking in the papers and saying, ‘We just pulled off the largest art theft in history,’” Amore says. ter and valued at more than $250 million, Amore said.

A Rembrandt self-portrait from 1629 — one of the museum’s most valuable paintings — was removed from the wall, but then left untouched while one of the crooks patiently unscrewed and removed from its frame a tiny Rembrandt etching slightly larger than a postage stamp.

It was the first of many odd twists investigators have puzzled over as they mapped the route the thieves using motion detector records.

After the heavier works of art were removed from the walls, the thief in charge — possibly the older of the two — might have let the other thief take what he wanted.

Amore believes the second thief found his way to a nearby gallery, lifting smaller Degas drawings of horses while passing up more valuable works of art including one by the Italian painter Botticelli.

The thieves also tried to remove a flag of Napoleon’s First Regiment from its frame before giving up and making off with a bronze finial in the shape of an eagle from atop the flag — ignoring more valuable letters with Napoleon’s signature.

How’d they do it?

Then came a final puzzle.

The thieves found their way to a gallery on the first floor, again passing more valuable works of arts, to seize a “Chez Tortoni,” a Manet painting of a man in a top hat and a departure from the Dutch paintings — all without triggering a motion detector.

“If we ever speak to the

thieves, which is secondary, I would like to say, ‘Why did you take that? Why did you pass by the Raphael?’” Amore said.

On their way out, the two thieves smashed their way into the security office and snatched the only visual record of their crime — a VHS tape.

In all, 13 works disappeared.

FBI agent Geoffrey Kelly, who has led the investigation for eight years, said it’s unlikely the thieves destroyed the art.

“If it were any other kind of commodity, I might feel pessimistic about recovery, but with art it’s not uncommon to stay missing for long periods of time,” he said.

“It’s one of the most interesting novels you could write, except it’s missing that last chapter.”

For those drawn to what happened that March night, the lure of the theft won’t fade.

Ulrich Boser, author of “The Gardner Heist” and a senior fellow at the Center for American Progress, said he’s convinced the paintings were taken by burglars involved in Boston’s organized crime rackets in the 1980s. He said the thieves might have subsequently lost possession of the works.

“For the most part, thieves steal these works because it’s easy to do and they’re worth a lot of money, and then they become too hot,” he said. “You can’t sell them on eBay. You can’t bring them into an auction house.”

Amore said he won’t stop until the paintings again fill the empty frames still hanging in the museum’s galleries.

“I don’t have any doubt we are going to recover them,” he said. “There’s nothing we’re not doing.”

By 8:30, she is usually in her office, overseeing two other full-time advisers and two volunteers who help her track Xavier’s 271 athletes in 17 sports.

Dedicated to her job Fleming has the ear of faculty members and cell phone numbers for the athletes. On occasion, athletes will find her knocking on their doors or waiting outside for their return.

“She’ll wait in a blizzard if she has to,” said the sophomore guard Terrell Holloway, who received a visit from Fleming when he fell behind in reading during summer school. “Whenever she wants us, she knows where to find us.”

When potential athletes go to Xavier for recruiting visits, Fleming is one of the first people they meet. Xavier players said that they rarely met academic advisers when they visited other programs.

“Coaches call me and say: ‘Look, this person is really a good player,’” Fleming said. “‘But this

THE BULLETIN • Tuesday, March 16, 2010 A5 person has not done well academically.’ And my first question is why.”

Her belief is that if students are focused enough to harness their talent into becoming Division I athletes, they certainly have the capacity to learn. But people learn differently.

“There are different channels to learning,” she said. “And I see my job as finding the best possible one.”

Xavier’s freshman athletes are required to attend 10 hours of supervised study hall each week, two hours per night. That continues unless grade point averages are above 3.0. Tutors are brought in for specialized help.

“There’s such a respect level because she’s been the academic adviser for Brian Grant and James Posey and David West,” said Mack, naming Xavier basketball players who completed degrees and went on to the NBA. “So when a freshman comes into our program, it’s not like we just hired her last week.”

In 1991, Pete Gillen, the coach at the time, named Fleming the team’s most valuable player. In 2000, she was inducted into Xavier’s athletic hall of fame.

Yet, most have never seen her shoot a basketball — which she did in high school in Cincinnati and college at Mount St. Joseph, when she was not playing on field hockey teams.

“If I wanted to shoot today, I’d have to spend a lot more time in the weight room strengthening my arms and chest,” Fleming said.

A few hours later, a photographer found a large ladder at Atlantic City’s Boardwalk Hall to stand on to take a picture of Fleming and the men’s basketball team, but needed someone to haul it to the center of the court.

“Need some help with that?”

Fleming asked.

As voting fog clears, Iraq hints at changes New York Times News Service BAGHDAD — Partial election results released Monday suggested a sharp and divisive shift in power in Iraq, with a secular candidate challenging Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki and old alliances fracturing against a surge of dissident movements.

The results were not yet conclusive, and given the complicated formula for allotting seats, the relative strengths of the major coalitions could change. But an updated tally of last week’s parliamentary voting suggested a new equation of leadership that hewed to an older arithmetic.

Traditional Kurdish and Shiite Arab alliances were confronted with movements that contested their claims to leadership, in particular the followers of the radical cleric Muqtada al-Sadr, who fought the Americans twice in 2004. Sunni Arab voters were newly emboldened in an election in which they forcefully took part under the banner of a secular alliance.

But in many ways, the vote solidified ethnic and sectarian divisions unleashed by the American-led invasion in 2003.

Despite a conscious effort by most parties to appeal to nationalist sentiments, people still voted along the lines of identity.

By Michael Tarm The Associated Press

CHICAGO — Affiliates of the once mighty liberal activist group ACORN are remaking themselves in a desperate bid to ditch the tarnished name of their parent organization and restore federal grants and other revenue streams that ran dry in the wake of a video scandal.

The letters A, C, O, R and N are coming off office doors from New York to California. Business cards are being reprinted.

New signs with new names are popping up in front of offices.

The breakaways are trying to shed the scandal that emerged six months ago when videos showed some ACORN workers giving tax tips to conservative activists posing as a pimp and prostitute. But while their names are different, most groups have kept the same offices and staff.

That, critics say, means the groups really haven’t started anew and severed all ties to ACORN, which faced accusations of mismanagement and rampant voter registration fraud well before the video brouhaha sent even longtime Democratic backers scattering.

LASCAHOBAS, Haiti — The earthquake that struck Haiti’s capital has also jarred the impoverished countryside, sending 600,000 people into the provinces — where locals are overwhelmed with the tasks of feeding and sheltering desperate newcomers.

Haitian and international aid officials describe the migration as one of the largest and most wrenching in the hemisphere, as internally displaced people stream out of Port-au-Prince and head to struggling provincial towns in the aftermath of the earthquake like civilians fleeing war zones in places such as Rwanda, Kosovo and the Swat Valley in Pakistan.

“They are everywhere. They are in the town, and they are sleeping in the fields,” said Gerald Joseph, mayor of Lascahobas, a farming and trading town north of the capital. “Our schools are beyond full now. Our hospital is full.

All our houses are full of people.

We don’t have an empty house.

Where four people were sleeping before, there are now 14.”

The mayor said that by his census, his town of 60,000 had grown by 10,000 refugees from Port-auPrince since the January quake.

They leave the city with a bag of rice or a suitcase of clothes and arrive here with no jobs and little money, the mayor said. “They are poor people overwhelming poor

Even the national office of ACORN, or the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, doesn’t blame affiliates for bolting from under its umbrella — conceding its entire 40-state network has been devastated by what backers characterize as right-wing attacks.

“It is true that these range of attacks do damage to your brand and your good name,” said Kevin Whelan, ACORN’s communication’s director. “The other reality is that we are starting to win some vindication on the facts. But vindication doesn’t necessarily pay the rent.”

ACORN’s financial situation and reputation went into free fall within days of the videos’ release in September. Congress reacted by yanking ACORN’s federal funding, private donors held back cash and scores of ACORN offices closed.

On Wednesday, a U.S. judge reiterated an earlier ruling that the federal law blacklisting ACORN and groups allied with it was unconstitutional because it singled them out. That doesn’t mean any money will automatically be restored, however.

FCC lays out national broadband proposal The Washington Post WASHINGTON — The Federal Communications Commission on Monday announced its long-awaited plan to bring broadband Internet connections to every home and business in America, part of an ambitious multibillion-dollar attempt to create a new digital infrastructure for the nation’s economy.

The national broadband plan outlines dozens of policy recommendations aimed at rais-

ing the percentage of people with high-speed Internet connections to 90 percent from the current 65 percent over the next decade and significantly increasing the connection speeds of homes that already have such service.

Mandated by last year’s stimulus legislation, the plan will be formally presented to Congress today and is widely expected to set the FCC’s agenda for years to come.

Gaps found in federal climate strategy Climate change has already wrought “pervasive, wide ranging” effects on the United States, and the federal government has “significant gaps” in its strategy to cope with those effects as they accelerate in the future, a White House task force will warn in a report today.

The report will call for better risk assessments, more thorough scientific research and improved coordination of federal and local governments in order to handle the impacts of warming temperatures, according to a draft obtained by the Tribune Washington Bureau.

Adapting to warming temperatures, the report concludes, “will require a set of thoughtful, preventative actions, measures and investments to reduce the vulnerability of our natural and human systems to climate change impacts.”

The report urges federal agencies to fundamentally change how they plan for the future, by factoring the potential risks and opportunities of a changing climate into their decision-making.

Officials in the countryside say that no help has come from the bankrupt and enfeebled Haitian government and that international aid has arrived in a frustrating trickle. In Lascahobas, the charity group World Vision fed 500 people one time, the mayor said.

Nepalese troops working for the United Nations also came once to feed about 800 people.

B WASHINGTON — A longstanding dispute over huge disparities in sentencing between crack vs. powdered cocaine appears to be headed for a resolution in Congress.

Senate lawmakers reached across the aisle and brokered a landmark deal this week to reduce criminal penalties for defendants caught with crack cocaine.

The often-divided Senate Judiciary Committee unanimously passed the measure 19-0, addressing for the first time in two decades a sentencing disparity that has troubled civil rights organizations, prisoners rights advocates and officials in the Obama White House.

California almond growers have their orchards pollinated by bees, some of which are trucked across the country afterward for work on the East Coast. The trip could be a factor as bee populations decline yearly.

Bees busier than ever, but hives are besieged

By Adrian Higgins The Washington Post

In normal times, David Hackenberg would begin trucking his 20 million honeybees from the almond orchards of California to the orange groves of Florida this week.

Instead, after a month working the almond blossoms on the West Coast, his exhausted pollinators will get some rest and relaxation in the Georgia woods before the East Coast apple blossoms summon them to work once more next month.

These are not normal times for bees, or for commercial beekeepers, so Hackenberg’s pollinators will skip the citrus gig to reduce their exposure to pesticides and get some rest. “Everybody is seeing (bee) losses this winter,” said Hackenberg, of Lewisburg, Pa. “This was probably the worst year ever.”

More than three years after beekeepers starting seeing the sudden disappearance of hive populations, scientists have yet to find the cause — let alone the fix — for a condition called colony collapse disorder. Meanwhile, the commercial beekeeping industry is struggling to provide

pollination services to the nations’ farmers. One-third of food crops rely on insect pollination.

A recently published survey suggests that hive losses have stabilized at about 30 percent a year, but that high figure is based on last winter’s data.

Anecdotally, the losses have climbed this winter, although a formal tally won’t occur until the spring.

“I am very concerned about this year based on what we have seen in California and other parts” of the United States, said Jeffery Pettis, research leader for the Agricultural Research Service’s honey bee laboratory in Beltsville, Md. He has visited the almond farms of California three times this winter to assess losses. The state’s growers produce 80 percent of the world’s almond crop and require 1.5 million of the nation’s estimated annual peak of 2.5 million managed hives.

Hackenberg said he and other major commercial beekeepers have seen “50 percent or better” losses since late fall and in the winter, when bees typically are clustered in a warm and fuzzy ball within the hive.

a military base that had become a sort of field headquarters for government leaders, including Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva.

Grenades fired at another army camp in Bangkok wounded two soldiers and highlighted the risk of further violence during the protest, which has drawn at least 100,000 people, many of them farmers, to a neighborhood of ministries and government offices in Bangkok.

Haitian officials preparing to seek billions of dollars in aid from foreign donors and U.S. taxpayers at the United Nations at the end of the month stress that their plan for a better Haiti includes a promise to decentralize power.

Eduardo Almeida, head of the Inter-American Development Bank in Haiti, said the plans should include massive investments in infrastructure in the

provinces — in schools, universities, ports, tourism, manufacturing and especially agriculture.

“Haiti is a farming culture that cannot feed itself, and that must change,” Almeida said. As an example, development officials and aid advisers say that Haiti is so poor, and its agriculture so ravaged, that it must import a million eggs a day from the neighboring Dominican Republic.

Enriquez and her American husband were gunned down near the Santa Fe bridge into the United States at about 2 p.m. Saturday, as their infant daughter cried in the back seat, unharmed but terrified. About the same time, assailants in a different part of the city killed the husband of a Mexican who works at the consulate.

Production increases Industrial production picked up slightly in February, though a bout of winter weather hampered growth in manufacturing.

Production rose 0.1 percent overall in February, the Federal Reserve said Monday, with mining gaining 2 percent and utilities increasing 0.5 percent over the previous month.

Manufacturing posted a decline of 0.2 percent for the month, but economists said that was largely because of a series of snowstorms that temporarily closed factories along the East Coast and reduced the length of the workweek.

Tuning in to small cities’ radio-listening habits

By Andrew Moore

The Bulletin

New York Times News Service

Eastlan Ratings walks among giants.

The company, which is run out of president and CEO Mike Gould’s home outside Sisters, has two competitors: Arbitron Inc. and The Nielsen Co. But where the giants do battle in the nation’s major metropolitan areas measuring radio listening habits, Eastlan works around the edges, in places like Ketchikan, Alaska; Yuma, Ariz.; Maui, Hawaii; and Houma, La. The locales sound exotic, but they all have one thing in common: They are small markets, which is where Eastlan has found its niche.

“It creates opportunities,” Gould said, referring to his company’s low overhead costs.

Part of Gould’s philosophy for keeping costs down is to operate the company virtually. The three co-founders — Gould, Bert Hambleton and Kent Phillips — work from their homes, as do another five contractors spread across the country. There is no office, and there are no employees, either, as the contractors contract with the founders.

In other words, no one has ever received a paycheck from Eastlan, Gould said.

OAKLAND, Calif. — Tim Westergren recently sat in a Las Vegas penthouse suite, a glass of red wine in one hand and a truffle-infused Kobe beef burger in the other, courtesy of the investment bankers who were throwing a party to court him.

It was a surreal moment for Westergren, who founded Pandora, the Internet radio station. For most of its 10 years, it has been on the verge of death, struggling to find investors and battling record labels over royalties.

Had Pandora died, it would have joined myriad music startups in the tech company graveyard, like SpiralFrog and the original Napster.

Instead, with a successful iPhone app fueling interest, Pandora is attracting attention from investment bankers who think it could go public, the pinnacle of success for a startup.

Two new tenants have been announced for the Pioneer Crossing shopping center on South Third Street in Bend, including one to take up space in the vacant Gottschalks department store building.

Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft Stores will move its existing store at 61303 S. Third St. across the street to take up roughly 22,000 square feet of the Gottschalks building, according to the center’s manager, John Keba. The new store would open in the fall, he said.

The Gottschalks building is approximately 55,000 square feet but is being split in two in

order to accommodate two tenants. Keba said he is in preliminary discussions with other prospective tenants for the building’s remaining 33,000 square feet.

The other new tenant is U.S. Cellular, which also will relocate an existing store, at 20205 Powers Road, to Pioneer Crossing. Keba said the new U.S. Cellular location, which will be in the same building as Subway, will likely open in late June.

A lease has been negotiated for the center’s bank pad, but the company, an Oregon based financial institution, is not yet ready to announce the new location, Keba said.

BRUSSELS — Finance ministers from the 16 countries using the euro as their currency said Monday they were ready to help rescue Greece.

After five hours of talks, Jean-Claude Juncker of Luxembourg, who leads the group of euro-zone finance ministers, gave details of a mechanism that could be used to help the Greek government stave off bankruptcy.

“The mechanism will not include loan guarantees,” Juncker told reporters on Monday. Instead, he said there would be “coordinated European action which will make bilateral aid available for Greece.” He added that all euro-zone nations would take part in any rescue program.

Scammers posing as Bank of the Cascades officials switched from phone calls to text messages on Monday as they attempted to get customers’ account information, according to a press release from the Oregon Department of Justice. The department’s consumer hot line received half a dozen calls about text messages Monday telling consumers that their bank accounts had been deactivated and asking consumers to verify their bank account numbers.

This is a phishing scam, the release said. Never provide your bank account number over the phone or by e-mail.

No legitimate financial institution will call you and ask you for your bank account number or other sensitive financial information. The scammers are trying to trick consumers into turning over their bank account numbers to they can empty the bank account, the release added.

Last week, at least one consumer fell prey to the phone call scam and lost $515 immediately after providing their bank account number, the release said. Anyone who believes they have been approached by a scammer should contact the Oregon Department of Justice Consumer Hotline at 1-877877-9392 or www.oregon attorneygeneral.gov.

Mike Gould is the president of Eastlan Ratings, a radio ratings company that he operates out of his home outside Sisters. The company was formed in 1999 and provides radio audience measurement data to stations around the country.

Ryan Brennecke The Bulletin

But another reason the firm doesn’t technically have any employees is the seasonality of the business.

Like Arbitron and Nielsen, Eastlan surveys radio listeners to find out what they listen to, and then sells the data to broadcasters who use the survey results to set advertising rates.

Arbitron primarily uses diaries, which it sends to listeners to fill out over the course of a week, for roughly 48 weeks of the year.

Eastlan uses a call center in Tucson, Ariz., to ask listeners what they listened to in the past 24 hours, and does this 32 weeks a year.

Bend-based Cascade Bancorp, parent company of Bank of the Cascades, announced Monday a loss of $48.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2009 and a loss of $93.1 million for all of 2009.

A year ago, the company reported a quarterly loss of $137.6 million and an annual loss of $134.6 million.

The bank has been hard hit by the real estate downturn, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. is requiring the bank to raise its capital levels under a consent order issued last August. To date, it has not met the order’s capital requirements.

Patricia Moss, the company’s president and CEO, said a private stock offering of $150 million is still planned.

In the company’s regulatory filing made public Monday, the company’s auditor, Delap LLP of Lake Oswego, said there is a risk the company may not be able to continue as a going concern in the future.

Moss said the auditor’s assertion is a standard accounting practice based on the company’s financial statements but is not a predictor of future performance.

“We believe we have sufficient capital and liquidity to continue as a going concern in the ordinary course of business,” Moss said.

Junk bond avalanche looms for credit markets

By Nelson D. Schwartz New York Times News Service

When the Mayans envisioned the world coming to an end in 2012 — at least in the Hollywood telling — they didn’t count junk bonds among the disasters that would lead to worldwide disaster.

Maybe they should have, because 2012 also is the beginning of a three-year period in which more than $700 billion in risky, high-yield corporate debt begins to come due, an extraordinary surge that some analysts fear could create a glut in the debt markets.

With huge bills about to hit corporations and the federal government around the same time, the worry is that some companies will have trouble getting new loans, spurring defaults and a wave of bankruptcies.

The U.S. government alone will need to borrow nearly $2 trillion in 2012, to bridge the projected budget deficit for that year and to refinance existing debt.

Indeed, worries about the growth of national, or sovereign, debt prompted Moody’s Investors Service to warn on Monday that the United States and other Western nations were moving “substantially” closer to losing their top-notch Aaa credit ratings.

Sovereign debt aside, the approaching scramble for corporate financing could strain the broader economy as jobs are cut, consumer spending is scaled back and credit is tightened for both consumers and businesses.

Eastlan

Q:

The basics What: Eastlan Ratings Phone: 877-886-3320 Web site: www.eastlanratings .com.

Continued from B1 But not every market is the same, Gould said. For example, broadcasters in Ketchikan request survey data once every two years.

Of the country’s roughly 500 radio markets, Eastlan surveys roughly 80 of them, including Central Oregon. Bend-based Horizon Broadcasting Group, which operates five stations in Bend, including KBNW (1340 AM), is a client.

By contrast, Arbitron is in 299 markets, Gould said.

Nielsen, better known for its television ratings, operates in 52 markets, Gould said.

Gould and his business partners started the company in 1999. By that time, Gould had worked 20 years in the medium, including stints in his hometown of Wenatchee, Wash., as well as time working for KBND (1110 AM) in Bend.

Eastlan originally targeted

small markets that weren’t served

by Arbitron or Nielsen but has since expanded to all markets outside the 50 largest. Gould said the company has grown every year, except for 2009, but is already trending positive for 2010.

In an interview with The Bulletin, Gould discussed a number of aspects of his business:

Q: A:

What is Eastlan’s biggest challenge?

It’s probably the financial health of America’s small retailers. Really, in the way that money flows, that’s sort of where our money comes from. Radio stations don’t buy market research unless they have advertisers who have an interest in responding to it.

Debt

The result is a potential financial doomsday, or what bond analysts call a maturity wall. From $21 billion due this year, junk bonds are set to mature at a rate of $155 billion in 2012, $212 billion in 2013 and $338 billion in 2015.

The credit markets have gradually returned to normal since the financial crisis, particularly in recent months, making more loans available to companies and signaling confidence in the pace of economic recovery. But the issue is whether they can absorb the coming surge in demand for credit.

As was the case with the collapse of the subprime mortgage market three years ago, derivatives played a big role in the explosion of risky corporate debt. In this case the culprit was a financial instrument called a collateralized loan obligation, which helped issuers repackage corporate loans much as subprime mortgages were sliced, diced and then resold to other investors. That made many more risky loans available.

“The question is, ‘Should these deals have ever been financed in the first place?’” asked Anders Maxwell, a corporate restructuring specialist at Peter J. Solomon Co. in New York.

Continued from B1 The apocalyptic talk is not limited to perpetual bears and the rest of the doom-and-gloom crowd. Even Moody’s, which is known for its sober public statements, is sounding the alarm.

“An avalanche is brewing in 2012 and beyond if companies don’t get out in front of this,” said Kevin Cassidy, a senior credit officer at Moody’s.

Private equity firms and many nonfinancial companies were able to borrow on easy terms until the credit crisis hit in 2007, but not until 2012 does the long-delayed reckoning begin for a series of leveraged buyouts and other deals that preceded the crisis.

That is because the record number of bonds and loans that were issued to finance those transactions typically come due in five to seven years, said Diane Vazza, head of global fixed-income research at Standard & Poor’s.

In addition, she said, many companies whose debt matured in 2009 and 2010 have been able to extend their loans, but the extra breathing room is only adding to the bill for 2012 and after.

The economy is down, but apart from that, how is the health of radio, given the alternative methods of delivery that have evolved recently, including satellite radio and online streaming.

Unfortunately, there’s no way to separate it from the economy. A hundred percent of radio revenues come from advertising, so if people aren’t advertising, it doesn’t work so good.

Certainly, radio is suffering from the economy being off, but the really great thing about radio is the penetration is still there. They are still producing cars every day with radios, so nationally over a course of a week, I think around 95-98 percent of people listen to the radio, a number that’s largely unchanged over the last 30, 40 years, even with streaming and satellites and smart phones.

THE BULLETIN • Tuesday, March 16, 2010 B3

(1999) was still pretty uncommon, but I wanted the opportunity to work where I wanted to live, and it’s been real beneficial to us.

Q: A:

In terms of cost savings?

Do you use that as a selling point?

Absolutely. The only reason we exist is because we can do the same quality of work for less money.

A:

Q: A:

Are more broadcasters showing interest in your services?

Yes. It’s a convergence of two things. The economy helps us in that broadcasters are looking for ways to save money, and we represent an opportunity for them to get a similar product at a lower price, and we’ve been around long enough that it’s not a risky move to work with us.

Q: A:

Why did you decide to keep the company decentralized as it is?

We decided early on to be virtual, which at the time

The period from 2012 to 2014 represents payback time for a Who’s Who of private equity firms and the now highly leveraged companies they helped buy in the pre-crisis boom years.

The biggest include the hospital owner HCA, which was taken private in 2006 by a group led

by Bain Capital and Kohlberg Kravis & Roberts for $33 billion, and has $13.3 billion in debt payments coming due between 2012 and 2014. Another buyout led by Kohlberg Kravis, for the giant Texas utility TXU, has $20.9 billion that needs to be refinanced in the same period.

Realogy, which owns real estate franchises like Century 21 and Coldwell Banker, was taken private by Apollo in the spring of 2007 just as the housing market was beginning to unravel and as the first tremors of the subprime crisis were being felt.

Realogy was saddled with $8 to $9 of debt for every $1 in earnings, well above the “$5 to $6 level that is manageable for a company in a highly cyclical industry,” according to Emile Courtney, a credit analyst with Standard & Poor’s.

Realogy has survived — barely.

“The company’s cash flow is still below what’s needed to cover the

interest on its debt,” Courtney said.

Realogy said it ended 2009 with a substantial cushion on its financial covenants and over $200 million of available cash on its balance sheet. “The company generated over $340 million of net cash provided by operating activities in 2009 after paying interest on its debt,” the company said.

Not everyone is convinced that 2012 will spell catastrophe for the junk bond market, however.

Optimists like Martin Fridson, a veteran high-yield strategist, note that investors seeking high yields snapped up speculativegrade bonds last year and early this year, and he suggests that continued demand will allow companies to refinance before their loans come due.

“The companies have nearly two years to push out the 2012 maturity wall,” he said. “Of course, the ability to refinance will depend upon the state of the economy.”

Pioneer Continued from B1 Gottschalks built the center’s main anchor building in 2008 and opened its department store in October of that year. It ultimately was the last store the chain opened, as the company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in January 2009.

The company was later liquidated, and Keba purchased the building from the company’s estate. The building has been vacant since roughly July 2009.

The new Jo-Ann location will be a prototype store for the Hudson, Ohio-based JoAnn Stores Inc., Keba said.

Attempts to reach the company Monday were unsuccessful, but regulatory filings state the company is putting more emphasis on the sale of craft items and has benefited from Wal-Mart’s decision to pull its fabric departments when its stores are remodeled.

The current Jo-Ann store is roughly 20,000 square feet.

Jo-Ann Stores is publiclytraded and the nation’s largest fabric and craft retailer with more than 750 locations in 48 states, according to the company’s Web site.

Pioneer Crossing, built on

the site of the old Jake’s Truck Stop, has slowly attracted tenants since construction finished in fall 2008. But tenants have been happy they have made the move to what Keba called an underserved part of town from a retail perspective.

“There’s a great mix of tenants here, brand-name neighbors,” said Mac Brookman, who co-owns the Tan Republic salon at the center.

Brookman said it’s the best performing Tan Republic of the four he owns or co-owns in Central Oregon, due to its location, the new facility and the drive-by traffic.

Other existing tenants include Boston’s The Gourmet Pizza restaurant, BlockBuster Video, Subway and Sisters Coffee Co. With the addition of Jo-Ann, U.S. Cellular and the new financial institution, the center will be 53 percent leased, Keba said.

“There is continued vibrancy on the south end of town, and we have been extremely happy with the amount of national retailers that continue to show interest in Central Oregon,” Keba said.

Continued from B1 Pandora’s 48 million users tune in an average 11.6 hours a month. That could increase as Pandora strikes deals with the makers of cars, televisions and stereos that could one day, Pandora hopes, make it as ubiquitous as AM/FM radio.

“We were in a pretty deep dark hole for a long time,” Westergren said. “But now it’s a pretty out-of-body experience.”

Pandora’s success can be credited to old-fashioned perseverance, its ability to harness intense loyalty from users and a willingness to shift directions — from business to consumer, from subscription to free, from computer to mobile — when its fortunes flagged.

Its library now has 700,000 songs, each categorized by an employee based on 400 musical attributes, like whether the voice is breathy, like Charlotte Gainsbourg, or gravelly like Tom Waits. Listeners pick a song or musician they like, and Pandora serves up songs with similar qualities — Charlotte Gainsbourg to Feist to Viva Voce to Belle and Sebastian.

Though Pandora’s executives say it is focusing on growth, not a public offering, the company is taking steps to make it possible. Last month, it hired a chief financial officer, Steve Cakebread, who had that job at Salesforce.com when it went public.

It is all a long way from January 2000, when Westergren founded the company. Trained as a jazz pianist, he spent a decade playing in rock bands before taking a job as a film composer. While analyzing the construction of music to figure out what film directors would like, he came up with an idea to create a music genome.

This being 1999, he turned the idea into a Web startup and raised $1.5 million from angel investors. It was originally called Savage Beast Technologies and sold music recommendation services to businesses like Best Buy. By the end of 2001, he had 70 employees and no money. Every two weeks, he held all-hands meetings to beg people to work, unpaid, for another two weeks.

That went on for two years.

Meanwhile, he appealed to venture capitalists, charged up 11 credit cards and considered a company trip to Reno, Nev., to gamble for more money. The dot-com bubble had burst, and shell-shocked investors were not interested in a company that relied on people, who required salaries and health insurance, instead of computers.

In March 2004, he made his 348th pitch seeking backers.

Larry Marcus, a venture capitalist at Walden Venture Capital and a musician, decided to lead a $9 million investment.

Westergren took $2 million of it and called another all-hands meeting to pay everyone back.

The next order of business: focus the service on consumers instead of businesses, change the name and replace Westergren as chief executive with Joe Kennedy, who had experience building consumer products at E-Loan and Saturn. Pandora’s listenership climbed, and in December 2005, it sold its first ad.

Some music lovers dislike Pandora’s approach to choosing music based on its characteristics rather than cultural associations. Slacker Radio, a competitor with three times as many songs but less than a third of Pandora’s listeners, takes a different approach. A ‘90s alternative station should be informed by Seattle grunge, said Jonathan Sasse, senior vice president for marketing at Slacker. “It’s not just that this has an 80-beat-a-minute guitar riff,” he said. “It’s that this band toured with Eddie Vedder.”

Yet in 2008, Pandora built an iPhone app that let people stream music. Almost immediately, 35,000 new users a day joined Pandora from their cell phones, doubling the number of daily signups.

For Pandora and its listeners, it was a revelation. Internet radio was not just for the computer. People could listen to their phone on the treadmill or plug it into their car or living room speakers.

“Think about what made AM/ FM radio so accessible,” said Kennedy, Pandora’s chief. “You get into the car or buy a clock for your nightstand and push a button and radio comes out,” he said. “That’s what we’re hoping to match.”

The Bulletin

A 32-year-old woman was arrested on suspicion of arson after three fires were set and a fourth attempted on property south of Madras this weekend — on land owned by the woman’s grandfather.

The Jefferson County Fire Department responded to the first fire on Friday Dawn Wilson afternoon at 930 S.W. Dover Lane. A passer-by reported seeing smoke coming from a small, vacant home that sits near the main residence on the property. The houses are about 10 feet apart on an oversized lot just south of town. There are other homes near the residence, which is located past the Central Oregon Livestock Auction yard. Later that day, at about 6:45 p.m., the Fire Department returned to the same address where the same vacant home was burning.

The second fire destroyed the residence.

On Saturday morning the Fire Department and the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office headed back to the house only to find a fire in the landscaping of the main residence where the woman’s grandfather lives, according to the Sheriff’s Office.

Dawn Wilson was arrested Saturday evening at about 9 p.m. and taken to the Jefferson County jail, where she is currently being held without bail.

Wilson faces two counts of first-degree arson, two-counts of second-degree arson, two counts of reckless endangering and two counts of reckless burning.

Man fined second time over sewage violations

By Kate Ramsayer The Bulletin

The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality has fined Wade Dale Ditmore, of Prineville, $4,000 for disposing of sewage from septic tanks without a license — two years after the agency fined him $28,000 for running unlicensed sewage disposal businesses for a decade.

The agency has also decided not to grant him or his businesses — Overland Plumbing and Little John’s Portable Toilets — a new on-site sewage disposal license.

Ditmore did apply for a license in 1997 but did not complete all of the required paperwork, said Bob Baggett, on-site wastewater specialist with the DEQ’s Bend office. He continued to operate, though.

When the agency found out, it fined him more than $28,000 — a fee that was later reduced to $15,750 and that Ditmore has not paid in full, Baggett said.

Ditmore did not return calls for comment Monday.

After the 2008 fine, Ditmore received a license for Overland Plumbing and Little John’s Portable Toilets. But in early 2009, after Ditmore let a required bond lapse, the DEQ suspended his license.

Ditmore kept on running the business with the suspended license, Baggett said, and didn’t try to renew it when it would have expired in June 2009.

A busy bee gathers pollen from a flowering tree in this photo made in summer 2008. This photo was cropped from a frame made using a 300 mm f/2.8 telephoto lens. An aperture of f/2.8 made for a shallow depth-of-field helping to show the bee against a clean background. Isolating a subject to show detail is the essence of close-up photography. It is hard to study with the naked eye a bee working as the movement is fast and our eyes focus on many different things.

Well, shoot! has touched on parts of closeup photography in previous installments, particularly when Pete Erickson wrote about photographing flowers in the Jan. 26 edition. The use of specialty equipment like macro lenses, extension tubes and ring lights is a big part of taking close-up work to the next level. Extension rings and macro lenses help magnify and focus

This is a close-up studio photograph of a Montana Red Quill fly. For several years, I have photographed fishing flies to go with stories on fly-tying by Gary Lewis at The Bulletin. I use studio lights and different backgrounds to show the detail so others have a visual reference as they tie their own. I used a 60 mm macro lens for this small fly.

closer to subjects helping to fill the frame with the subject. Ring light flashes surround the end of the lens barrel and provide flash on the subject without the lens, often just millimeters from the subject, causing a shadow. But standard equipment can also do a notable job at isolating a subject so the viewer of the photograph looks at particular details in stopped time — kind of a basic definition of close-up photography. When photographing animals or people, the primary

I made this close-up photograph of Ryan Knopp on Mother’s Day 2007. This photo was made with a 50 mm lens set to an aperture of f/2.5, which helps simplify the photograph to Ryan’s expression with the focus point on his eyes.

focus needs to be on the eyes; those are what humans like to look at first.

Having a steady hand or using a tripod is essential to prevent camera shake from creating a blurry image. Many point-and-shoot cameras and packaged zoom lenses have macro settings that allow the camera to get really close to a subject. Work on getting the exposure and color you want from the photograph and find patterns within the frame to keep the viewer’s attention.

This close-up photo was made using an off-camera flash from the side.

Side-lighting emphasizes texture and allows for a camera to be close without blocking the light. I made a hole-in-one with this golf ball and love seeing the scuff marks and the laseretched logo. This photo was made with a Canon G9 point-and-shoot camera on its macro setting.

Equipment corner FOR BEGINNERS AND INTERMEDIATES Use fast shutter speeds and shallow depth-of-field with the help of good light to assure clear and colorful pictures.

Reduce camera shake by using a tripod and either a self-timer or remote release to make the picture. Find patterns in the details and form them into interesting compositions. Use

contrasting colors and keep the subject of the photo clear and close. To keep reflections in the close-up from being distracting, cut a hole in black felt, wear dark clothes and put black tape over your camera’s bright logo.

Here’s the lineup

FOR EXPERTS Learn about extension tubes, ring flashes, macro lenses and

microphotography. These upgrades will open new doors in observations. Upside-down reflections in rain drops on your car window, eyelashes and studies in nature take on an entirely different meaning when isolated and frozen in a still image.

Cascade Natural Gas shorted Bend on franchise fees through two decades of billing errors, and paid the city more than $1 million last fall, after a city audit last year revealed the problem.

Officials might use the unexpected cash to help bolster the city’s new rainy day fund, make improvements to office space it owns downtown and start an economic development loan fund, according to a preliminary list of ideas. The city might also use the money to hire a part-time employee to coordinate volunteers to clean up roadsides, pay for an upgrade for the City Council chambers sound system and pay for a poll of residents’ opinions on public safety.

The city also faces ongoing budget problems in its general fund, which could have a $21 million shortfall in the next six years. The city pays for police and fire services out of the general fund, and it is looking for ways to prevent cuts to these departments.

The Bend City Council will likely take up the issue of how to use the money at an April 7 meeting.

Cascade Natural Gas’ errors included not collecting the city’s franchise fee on its service charge, and not charging the franchise fee to some city customers because the company incorrectly believed they lived outside the city limits, said Bend Finance Director Sonia Andrews. Once the city discovered the problem, Cascade Natural Gas cooperated with the city and paid the original amount owed to the city, plus interest, Andrews said.

Driving school monitors Prius problems, stresses safety

By Erin Golden The Bulletin

As federal transportation safety officials investigate reports of problems with the popular hybrid Prius and other Toyota vehicles, local car owners — including a driving school that frequently uses the Prius — are keeping close watch.

So far, however, Rick Nickell, a program manager of the High Desert Driver Education Program, said the impact on the school has been minimal. After Toyota’s announcement last fall that floor mats on the Prius could cause the accelerator to stick, the school took the mats out of the five Priuses in its fleet.

Because the school’s cars are all 2007 and 2008 models, they were not affected by a more recent recall of about 133,000 2010 Priuses for anti-lock brake issues.

While the school monitors the latest updates, it is continuing to use the cars — and use the experience to teach students an additional lesson about what to do if something goes wrong on the road. The program provides driving instruction for students in school districts across Central Oregon.

“One of the things we always talk about in class is what to do in any type of crisis, what to do if the engine stalls, or the accelerator sticks, and now we’ve added to it, since we have Priuses,” Nickell said.

Vietnamese civilians killed in 1968 My Lai Massacre

L B

Compiled from Bulletin staff reports

Police: Downtown Bend assault a hoax A woman who said she’d been assaulted during an attempted robbery in downtown Bend earlier this month made up the story, Bend police said Monday.

On March 4, the 24-year-old woman reported that she’d been attacked in the alley connecting Northwest Franklin and Minnesota avenues, between Northwest Bond and Lava streets. She told police that a man she didn’t know had hit her, knocked her down and tried to rob her, according to a news release from the Bend Police Department.

The next day, the woman contacted police again and told officers that she hadn’t told the truth in her initial report.

She gave a second statement in which she said the robbery and assault took place in a different location and that she might know the suspect. On March 9, the lead investigator in the case met again with the woman, who said that she had not been robbed and had lied about the incident. She said she had been in a fight with a man she knew in southeast Bend.

Police are investigating the woman’s most recent claim to determine if a crime took place and will forward a report to the Deschutes County District Attorney’s Office, the release said.

Bend’s Riverside Blvd. to close Thursday Riverside Boulevard will be closed between Broadway Street and Louisiana Avenue from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Thursday.

The Bend Park & Recreation District will be trimming trees in Drake Park.

Redmond seeks input on 4-day school week The Redmond School Board will host a public input session to determine whether the district should return to a fiveday standard school week or maintain its current, four-day schedule.

The meeting, which will start with a 30-minute information session and include time for public input and board discussion, will take place at the board’s regular meeting at 5:30 p.m. Wednesday at the district

office, at 145 S.E. Salmon Ave, in Redmond.

Community members are also invited to submit comments through the district’s Web site, at www.redmond.k12 .or.us/schoolweek.

Trial set for hit-and-run case A Bend woman arrested after a New Year’s Eve hit-andrun crash that seriously injured a 20-year-old man will stand trial this summer in Deschutes County Circuit Court.

On Monday, Kelsey Colleen Magee, 31, pleaded not guilty to one count of failure to perform the duties of a driver, a Class C felony. The charge stems from a Dec. 31 incident at Southeast Fifth Street and Wilson Avenue in Bend, where Jayson Barker, of Bend, was found lying unconscious.

Police gathered evidence that pointed to Barker having been hit with a blue Toyota 4Runner.

The following day, Magee contacted police and was identified as the driver of the vehicle.

Magee’s trial is scheduled to begin Aug. 25.

Hollinshead Park plans topic of meeting The Bend Park & Recreation District will host a meeting Thursday regarding the master plan for Hollinshead Park.

The meeting, which will run from 5:50 to 7 p.m. Thursday in the barn at Hollinshead Park, at 1235 N.E. Jones Road, will be a drop-in open house where community members can look over preliminary plans and share comments. No new construction is planned for the park.

Man reported missing at Wanoga Sno-park A snowshoer was reported missing at Wanoga Sno-park at about 6 p.m. Monday and was still missing as of late Monday, according to Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office Sgt. Joe Deluca and Deschutes County 911.

The man, who Deluca described as older, was by himself and was most likely on snowshoes. Search and Rescue crews were dispatched to the area, and as of late Monday were still actively searching for him.

O I B Portland airport gets new long-term garage PORTLAND — Portland International Airport’s new longterm parking garage opens Thursday.

The garage provides 3,000 covered parking spaces located near the airport terminal building.

Tunnels and moving sidewalks connect the seven-story garage to the terminal.

Regular parking rates are the same as at the former long-term surface parking lot — $16 per day or $3 per hour.

A promotional parking rate of $12 per day is being offered from Thursday until April 8.

The Port of Portland projects roughly 700,000 people to travel through PDX during spring break.

Rental fee proposal stopped in Eugene EUGENE — A proposal to combat property crime in Eugene has been shelved.

The plan would have increased the $10 annual fee on rental units, allowing the city to hire a property crime prevention specialist to focus on limiting burglaries, car breakins and vehicle thefts at rental properties.

Police Chief Pete Kerns says the city’s “hot spots” for thefts have been at the large apartment complexes.

Landlords, however, strongly opposed having to pay for the plan and tenants were concerned the cost would be passed on to them.

Mom, son accused of assaulting officers EUGENE — Eugene Police Chief Pete Kerns says two officers were injured late Saturday when they were attacked by a mother and son while responding to a domestic violence call.

Officer Ryan Molony was taken to a local hospital and later released. Officer Carissa Hartmann sustained injuries that did not require a hospital trip.

Police charged 24-year-old Nicholas Jenkins and 50-yearold Maria Jenkins with assaulting an officer and resisting arrest.

The Register-Guard newspaper reports the father of Nicholas Jenkins, 53-year-old Gary Jenkins, was later charged with interfering with a police officer.

Kerns described the incident as “intolerable.”

Portland police arrest 24-year-old in stabbing PORTLAND — A 24-year-old man is in custody in the stabbing of a woman in Portland over the weekend.

Police say Exie C. Phillips knew the victim but the stabbing early Sunday wasn’t an incident of domestic violence. Phillips is being held for investigation of attempted murder and first-degree assault.

The Oregonian reports that the woman was stabbed multiple times. She’s in serious condition but is expected to survive.

Clackamas settles wrongful-death suit PORTLAND — Clackamas County has reached a $1 million settlement in a lawsuit brought by the family of a Gresham man who died during a confrontation with police in 2005, both sides in the dispute said Monday.

A Sandy police officer and a Clackamas County sheriff’s deputy encountered 27-yearold Fouad Kaady after he had smashed his car. He was naked, burned, bleeding and unarmed.

Officers used a stun gun on him. After he got on the top of a police cruiser they shot Kaady multiple times, killing him. The officers said Kaady had yelled that he would kill them.

A grand jury cleared the two officers. But Kaady’s family filed a wrongful-death lawsuit.

Clackamas County and the family announced Monday they had reached a $1 million settlement.

Kent Spence, the family’s attorney, said the family agreed to the settlement because they did not want to have to relive Kaady’s death during trial.

Spence said the family stands by its view that this was a “terrible, senseless killing.”

Help, a home for survivors of brain injuries

By Mark Baker The Register-Guard

EUGENE — Hank Chambers does not remember the crash. He doesn’t remember what year it happened, where it happened or what caused it.

His best guess is that he was 18 and it happened the summer after he graduated from Willamette High School in 1973. But in truth, it was four years after that, according to the March 4, 1977, issue of The Register-Guard.

“Motorist hurt in car crash,” says the small headline. “A 22-year-old Eugene man was seriously injured when the car he was driving went out of control on a road near Junction City, hit a telephone pole and overturned. Hank Melvin Chambers was listed in serious condition at Sacred Heart General Hospital. He received head injuries and a fractured leg.”

And that was pretty much it. A life changed forever. A few sentences in the daily newspaper.

You’ll have to forgive Chambers for not remembering the crash that occurred about two miles south of Junction City.

He sustained a traumatic brain injury and underwent at least two surgeries. Thirty-three years later, a scar is still prominent on his forehead.

A ray of hope Now 55, Chambers lives in ShelterCare’s RiverKourt Apartments in Eugene. He was one of the original residents in the nonprofit agency’s complex that opened in 1996, part of ShelterCare’s Uhlhorn Program that offers low-rent transitional housing for braininjury survivors.

But for Chambers, it’s now home. And just might be for the rest of his life.

“I finally found a place I can live without having any problems,” said Chambers, who spent years suffering from epileptic seizures, alcohol addiction and homelessness after his injury before finding ShelterCare, which began as a single homeless shelter in Eugene in December 1970 and later added services for the mentally ill and the brain-injured.

March is national Brain Injury Awareness Month, a time when brain injury associations and organizations such as ShelterCare shine a spotlight to increase awareness about brain injuries. It’s also a time when survivors such as Cham-

Missing documents halt Willamette education audit The Associated Press SALEM — Missing financial documents have prevented a Tigard firm from completing its audit of the Willamette Education Service District.

Oregon school and education service districts must file annual financial reports with the state Department of Education by Dec. 31. The Secretary of State’s Office requires that independent auditors review the reports and express an opinion on their accuracy.

The state gave Willamette a two-month extension to locate the missing documents, but the paperwork could not be found, the Statesman Journal newspaper reported. The auditors were unable to even determine how much money the district carried over from last school year.

“A lot of stuff, especially

bers and Cynthia Price, another resident of RiverKourt, get to tell their stories.

Along with the other 35 or so brain-injured residents in ShelterCare’s Uhlhorn Program, they are among the estimated 5 million Americans living with the debilitating effects of acquired brain injuries.

An ‘extra boost’ An acquired brain injury is brain damage caused by events after birth, rather than as part of a genetic or congenital disorder, whether from trauma such as Chambers sustained, or from a tumor such as the 2-inch by 2-inch by 4-inch mass discovered in Price’s brain when she was 23.

The Uhlhorn program helps, Price said, because “we would be so concentrated at trying to keep track of our pills and appointments (that) we wouldn’t be able to concentrate on our recoveries.”

Price, 31, underwent two surgeries in 2003 to remove a lifethreatening tumor from her brain that caused significant damage and short-term memory problems.

The goal of the 20-year-old Uhlhorn Program is to help brain-injury survivors strive toward a more independent life. “So it’s kind of that little extra boost,” Price said. “You have the extra boost to grow up here.”

Because of advances in modern medicine over the years, brain-injured people are more likely to regain abilities they lost, said Susan Ban, executive director at ShelterCare.

Brain injury rehabilitation is a phenomenon of the late 20th century and has given many survivors an opportunity to return to active, independent community living, she said.

But the struggle is never easy. How do you hold a job if you cannot remember what happened 30 minutes ago?

“On the one hand, you think about people like Hank and Cynthia having grief attached to the loss they’ve experienced,” Ban said. “But in a way, they are heroes.”

Although some residents in the program are there for a transitional period of maybe a few months, others may spend the rest of their lives with ShelterCare, Ban said. Some are able to find work or return to school, or volunteer in the community.

from the past, could not be substantiated,” said Tara Kamp, audit manager at Pauly, Rogers and Co. Education service districts provide services such as special education and business services to school districts in their regions. Willamette, the state’s second-largest such district, has been in turmoil since last summer, when an investigation into whistle-blower claims found financial and management improprieties.

A state audit released in January detailed widespread mismanagement, and the district’s board fired Superintendent Maureen Casey in October.

Aside from the missing documents, the auditors were stopped

by Acting Superintendent Dave Novotney’s refusal to sign a required statement accepting responsibility for the financial statements.

“I wasn’t the superintendent during the audit period, and I’m unable to sign the written representations verifying that the previous balances and financial statements were correct,” Novotney said.

The state will not penalize the district for the incomplete audit.

The situation, however, could limit the district’s ability to obtain credit. The district estimates it started the current school year with a $1.3 million shortfall.

Squeezing most from tax dollars?

W

e really wanted to believe that Deschutes County officials run a tight fiscal ship. Silly us. Who could stay tight when

taxpayer-subsidized massages are there for the asking?

Under an alternative care benefit, the county health plan provides $1,500 every year for, among other things, naturopathic and chiropractic care and, our favorite, massage therapy.

For each massage, the county will pay up to $45, and the employee will contribute $15. An employee who wanted to use all of his alternative-care budget for massages could get dozens every year at the subsidized rate.

If only “squeezing” the budget for the rest of us involved massage oil.

We don’t question the therapeutic value of massage therapy. Problem is, county employees don’t have to demonstrate a medical need for massages.

They simply diagnose themselves and head off for treatment, which makes the massage subsidy a nonmedical perk that just happens to be lodged within the health plan. Last year, that perk cost $136,000.

How can the county justify such an extravagance, especially at a time like this? We’re not the first people to ask that question. County Assessor Scot Langton broached the subject at an August 2009 meeting of the county’s Employee Benefits Advisory Committee. Commissioner Dennis Luke responded, according to the minutes, “that he could support the benefit by showing how much we have grown in our reserve.” Besides, said Luke, the county’s spending on alternative care is “very small” compared “to the budget and medical.” It’s also small compared to the national debt, but that doesn’t mean it’s money well spent.

Let’s talk about that reserve, which the self-insured county created to protect itself during high-claim years. As

we pointed out in an editorial earlier this month, the reserve is huge. The county’s internal auditor noted in 2008 that other self-insured entities might keep 16 weeks of claims in reserve.

Deschutes officials decided to bank an entire year. Moreover, the auditor said, “we have far exceeded even that.”

As of Feb. 28, the county had “grown” its reserve to $16.9 million.

That’s certainly impressive, and it dwarfs the $136,000 the county spent on massages in 2009. But so what? The county built up its reserve by pulling money from individual departments.

That money would otherwise be used to provide services, as County Administrator Dave Kanner noted in a 2008 EBAC meeting. Should taxpayers be relieved that the annual massage bill is small compared to the millions diverted from county departments to create its humongous health plan reserve?

This isn’t the first time that the size of the reserve has been used to justify bad policy. Employees, including those with families, contribute an enviable $35 every month in health care premiums. More than two years ago, the county’s budget committee proposed an increase to $50 per month. Following through wouldn’t have been difficult, as the county’s union contracts already allowed such a increase.

Nevertheless, employees argued that the increase wasn’t necessary given the size of the reserve. The budget committee’s suggestion went nowhere.

And now, argues Luke, it would be unkind to ask employees to pay more.

Times are tough, you know.

Still, everything feels a little better after a nice massage.

No future in state stimulus

S

tate officials branded the Oregon Legislature’s Go Oregon stimulus a resounding success.

They say the 2009 program “created or retained” 7,500 jobs when the state economy needed it.

But what did Oregon get $93 million later?

On Saturday, The Oregonian took a closer look. Here’s how that newspaper summarized its key findings: “• Average length of a Go Oregon job was about two weeks.

• Everyone working on a Go Oregon project was counted as a job, even those who were already employed and in no danger of being laid off.

• One out of four Go Oregon workers was from out of state.

• Counties with high unemployment got a smaller share of the money.”

How are Oregonians supposed to trust politicians that count to 7,500 like that? The Oregonian’s analysis also highlighted some eyebrow-raisers among the Go Oregon projects. Our favorite has to be spending $47,000 on a new roof for a vacant state transportation building in Clackamas County.

That’s really going to propel Oregon’s economy forward.

Of course, there are arguments to be made in favor of state stimulus spending. Recessions are caused in part by a decline in demand. Go Oregon played a role in stimulating demand. It did put paychecks in people’s pockets, however briefly. Remember, Oregon was nearly tops in national unemployment in 2009.

Nobody would expect the Legislature to try nothing.

The question is: Was the Go Oregon stimulus the best something?

The Legislature could have chosen to spend the money in ways much more likely to stimulate the economy over the long term. It could have stimulated investment through an investment tax credit on new machinery and equipment. Business investment has been crippled in this recession. Revenues are bad enough and most credit dried up.

The amount of the credits could have been capped at the same $176 million the Legislature planned for stimulus spending.

It’s common sense that stimulus based on investment is better for Oregon’s economy than stimulus based on consumption. State government picking which government building gets a new roof or a new coat of paint gets us as far as it did. It doesn’t build for Oregon’s future.

In My View Government should live within means

By Dean Kine Bulletin guest columnist

W

hy is it that the government agencies who have the ability to tax the population feel like they are the only ones asking for more money? All the agencies are asking the people to give them more and more of our money. Have they not been watching the tea party demonstrations?

The federal government wants more money. The state just raised taxes on the people. The sheriff wants more money to build a new jail. The parks and recreation department wants more money so they can build more parks when they don’t have enough money to maintain the ones they have. Now I read in The Bulletin the city wants more money because they just can’t make it on what they have. Well guess what!

Some of us are having to tighten our spending habits. I would really like to go out every once in a while for a nice dinner, but I can’t afford to, so I must fix meals at home. I would also like to get a new car every year, but no can do, I have to try to live within my budget.

Why don’t the taxing agencies have to live within their budgets? I could live within my budget if the government would stop raising my taxes.

The federal government tells us there is no inflation and so no increase

in Social Security payments. If that is the case, it should be OK for the government agencies to live within their budgets of last year. Things should be costing them the same this year as last year.

The latest plea from the city is that they must have an additional $21 million over the next six years. That is $3.5 million per year. I would like to see the city’s savings account and a complete budget breakdown. How many new police cars, city employees’ cars and trucks, how much work is done by the maintenance department? I am sure if you enlisted the help of the public, we could find big savings in the city budget.

I have served on several boards of directors and have been responsible for developing a budget for a rather large operation. There are always savings if you dig into the budget! So dig! Taxes of all kinds are out of control.

For an example: How many police cars do we need as backup? There are way too many extra cars parked behind the police station not in use! All of those cars are equipped with radios and all of the other police equipment needed. But they are parked!

Why do we need to purchase new trucks for the different departments of Bend to drive around in? As I said — I would like to have the newest car

to drive around in and I’m sure the city employees enjoy it. But we can surely keep the cars for a few years. What a concept: Drive them until they are worn out, not because they have x number of miles or they are two years old.

It has also come to my attention that we never see one city employee driving in a city vehicle by themselves.

Why do we need two people driving together? Must they have someone to keep them company? It is time we trim the city employees who are not needed. Also why do city employees make more money and have a better retirement program than those in private enterprise? It is time to freeze the wages of city employees until the city gets their budget under control. City wages, benefits and budget are out of control!

It is time we say no to any requested increase in taxes until we can be sure the taxing agencies have done everything they can to trim the budget. There are items we must have and things we would like to have. Let’s focus on the items we must have and put off spending money on items we would like to have.

Maybe it’s time to appoint a citizen group to go through the budget and cut out unneeded spending.

Don’t lock OHV users out of our national forests

By Ethan Lodwig Bulletin guest columnist

P

roperly designed multiple-use trail systems can be sustainable and are a valuable resource for the public’s enjoyment. Trail systems that are properly designed can mitigate problems with enforcement and user-created trails. People have no desire to go off the trail when they are given a quality trail experience. Multiple-use trail systems can be enjoyed by everyone: hikers, people with disabilities, hunters, mountain bikers, etc. Often off-highway vehicle users volunteer their time in the maintenance and construction of trails. There are many examples of sustainable and successful multiple-use trail systems in Oregon that have been used for decades.

Recently, there was an editorial article that mentioned that an OHV system in the Ochoco National Forest would only benefit a very few people. There was a study conducted in the Ochoco National Forest (ONF) from Jan. 1, 2000, to Dec.

31, 2000 (“National Visitor Use Monitoring Results, September 2001, USDA Forest Service, Region 6, Ochoco National Forest”). The sample size was 372 visitors of the estimated 600,000 visitors to the ONF. That’s 0.062 percent of the total visitors, and 43.8 percent of those included in the study “were not recreating.” They were “working,” “stopped to use the bathroom” or “just passing through.” So really the sample size of those who came to enjoy the area was 209, or 0.035 percent, of users. The 2 percent of respondents who stated they were in the forest for OHV recreation also said that it was not their “primary activity.” This means that four people interviewed in one year’s worth of visitors are the representative sample of all the OHV visitors to the ONF. And, of those four people none of them considered it their primary activity. Does that make them representative of all OHV users to the area?

According to the USDA’s “Off-High-

IN MY VIEW way Vehicle Recreation in the United States, Regions and States” (A National Report from the National Survey on Recreation and the Environment, June, 2005): Nationally, about 22 percent of Oregon’s population over the age of 16 enjoys OHV recreation, which is very close to the national average of about 23 percent.

Whether they are accessing their favorite fishing area, trail, hunting, or camping, by using their 4x4, quad, sideby-side, ATV, or motorcycle, I believe that there are far more than 2 percent of visitors to the Ochoco National Forest that recreate off of the highway.

There are multiple articles from The Associated Press (one example: “National Forest visitors down, no one knows why,” Jeff Barnard, 2008) that document the exponential growth of OHV popularity in Oregon and the recent, overall di-

minishing number of visitors to Oregon’s national forests. Meaning the percentage of people visiting Oregon’s national forest lands to recreate off of the highway is increasing.

Annually, billions of dollars are circulated in Oregon related to OHV recreation. One example is the 2007 direct sales of new “youth ATVs and motorcycles” in Oregon was $52.3 million alone (Motorcycle Industry Council).

Obviously, this figure does not include adult-sized vehicle sales, used unit sales, support vehicles, accessories, parts, service, protective gear, camping fees, restaurants, etc. OHV visitors spend millions of dollars close to recreation areas that boost local economies. So there is a growing and valuable demand for sustainable OHV trail systems.

I, like many other people, have enjoyed wilderness areas. I think wilderness areas are an important part of our nation’s Forest Service land. Indeed, in 2004, wilderness land made up about 67.7 percent

of our national forest land. And, a total of 1.16 percent of visitors to the ONF enjoyed the wilderness area. So we have a small population that actually enjoys the wilderness area that is already there.

The last thing this country needs is more land locked up into wilderness areas.

Wilderness areas are cheap to manage because very few people go there. Our national forests are no longer “the land of many uses,” and for the public’s enjoyment. In Oregon we are losing thousands of miles of trails that have traditionally been used for OHV recreation.

In the United States, millions of families spend billions of dollars enjoying taking their children out for the weekend on camping and riding trips on OHV trails. It keeps families together. Despite what you may think of people who recreate on OHVs, we teach our children to be stewards of the trails and the land that we value so much.

Audit Continued from C1 Cascade Natural Gas typically pays the city about $1 million in franchise fees annually.

Andrews said the city conducts audits of selected companies that pay city franchise fees and lodging taxes each year. Garbage and recycling companies and utility companies are required to pay city franchise fees.

The amount owed by Cascade Natural Gas was larger than what the city normally finds. “Usually, it’s $200,000 or $300,000 in errors we find,” Andrews said.

The city has a long list of projects that officials are considering paying for with the money.

The draft list would put $600,536 in the city’s rainy day fund. The city currently has $250,000 in the fund, Andrews said.

Charles Moore shot civil rights struggles Photographer was a powerful force in political change

By Douglas Martin New York Times News Service

Charles Moore, a photographer who braved physical peril to capture searing images — including lawmen unleashing dogs and fire hoses against defenseless demonstrators — that many credit with helping to propel landmark civil rights legislation, died on Thursday in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla. He was 79.

His daughter Michelle Moore Peel said he died of natural causes.

Moore’s camera snapped the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. being rudely arrested in Montgomery, Ala., in 1958, and James Meredith courageously integrating the University of Mississippi in the face of a screaming mob in 1962.

Moore’s camera captured Bull Connor turning attack dogs and high-pressure hoses on peaceful civil rights demonstrators in Birmingham, Ala., in 1963, and recorded a black man being viciously beaten by a white lawman during the “Bloody Sunday” march from Selma, Ala., in 1965.

These crisp, fluid blackand-white photographs appeared most prominently in Life magazine at a time when general-interest picture magazines remained such a powerful force that critics now speak of it as the “golden age of photojournalism.”

Popular support Both Sen. Jacob K. Javits and the historian Arthur M. Schlesinger Jr. credited Moore’s images with building popular support for the passage of major civil rights laws in the mid1960s. Commentators have suggested that the fact that one does not see who is aiming the hose at the demonstrators seems to implicate the whole nation.

Moore, who was white, grew up in Alabama as the son of a Baptist minister who not only denounced racism but who also occasionally preached in black churches. The son said he used his camera to continue the fight.

But as a Southerner, he well knew the delicate line he had to walk.

On the one hand, Moore said in an interview with The Montgomery Advertiser in 2005, he refused to get on his knees and beg as racists had demanded.

On the other, he said, he did everything possible to avoid confrontation, explaining that if he were arrested he couldn’t photograph.

“I’d let people trip me, jostle me, pull my hair and threaten to smash my camera,” he told The

Septic Continued from C1 Without a valid license, he got rid of more than 23,000 gallons of sewage on at least 65 days in 2009, according to the DEQ — although he did dispose of the material at an approved Crook County landfill location.

“It’s unusual in that somebody was able to operate for 10 years without a license, then got a license, and I really didn’t expect

Continued from C1 Nobody was hurt in any of the fires, and the third fire was extinguished before causing major damage to the home, according to information from the Sheriff’s Office.

While on the scene investigating the third fire, officials found evidence of another place where someone tried to start another fire near the occupied residence.

Bryan Skidgel with the Jefferson County’s Sheriff Office said he is not aware that Wilson had any history with arson. “(Wilson) stayed with her grandpa off and on, but it wasn’t a permanent residence,” Skidgel said.

Assistant Fire Department Chief Tom Jaca said it appears all fires were set separately at different times, although officials are still investigating.

Jaca declined to say what was used to start the fires, other than it was with a type of accelerant.

The vacant home that burned, owned by Melvin Ashwill, was valued at $45,000. The value of contents were worth $3,000, according to information from the Fire Department.

Mickey Welsh / Montgomery (Ala.) Daily Advertiser

Civil rights photographer Charles Moore poses for a portrait in 2005 in Montgomery, Ala. Moore died Thursday. He was 79.

New Orleans Times-Picayune in 1997.

Hank Klibanoff, who with Gene Roberts wrote “The Race Beat: The Press, the Civil Rights Struggle, and the Awakening of a Nation” (2006), said in an interview Monday that Moore, almost always using a short lens, would immerse himself in the middle of the action. He often appeared in the pictures of other photographers who were standing back.

This dedication to craft resulted in an image that the author Paul Hendrickson said had shook him to the core. The picture showed six Mississippi sheriffs and a deputy, some chortling, waiting to confront Meredith at Ole Miss. One appears to be showing the others how to swing a riot club.

Hendrickson wrote about the seven lawmen in “Sons of Mississippi: A Story of Race and Its Legacy” (2003). The photo is included in Moore’s 2002 book, “Powerful Days: The Civil Rights Photography of Charles Moore.”

“It was a two-second grab shot,” Hendrickson said on Monday. “The greatest photographers see the image before they click it.”

Kodak Brownie Charles Lee Moore was born in Hackleburg, Ala., on March 9, 1931, and took his first pictures with a Kodak Brownie. He served three years in the Marines as photographer and then

to see him back in here with another violation,” Baggett said.

DEQ staff members do not have any evidence that Ditmore caused any environmental damage or disposed of the sewage improperly, Baggett said. But the agency requires septic disposal businesses to be bonded and licensed so that officials know they’re complying with rules and regulations and can track how much material they are pumping and where it’s going, he said.

attended the Brooks Institute of Photography in Santa Barbara, Calif. He next applied for a job as a photographer with the morning and afternoon newspapers in Montgomery: The Montgomery Advertiser and The Montgomery Journal.

His training in fashion photography at Brooks helped him get the job, Klibanoff said.

When Moore arrived at the newspapers’ office, Klibanoff said, he was sent to a country club where the photography editor was taking pictures of bathing beauties. The editor, who hated the job, was having trouble positioning everyone.

Moore took over, all went smoothly, and he was hired.

At the newspapers Moore quickly proved his versatility.

An article in Editor & Publisher in 1961 praised him for “turning pictures of everyday people into dramatic, emotional experiences for readers.”

In 1962, Moore left the newspapers to start a freelance career. He worked for the Black Star picture agency, which sold much of his work to Life.

Moore went on to cover the Vietnam War and many other trouble spots. He then decided he wanted to “shoot beauty” and moved on to nature, fashion and travel photography, in addition to corporate work. But he always said his civil rights work was his most important, and in 1989 he received the inaugural Kodak Crystal Eagle Award for Impact in Photojournalism.

Ditmore has contested the $4,000 penalty and the decision not to grant him a license, Baggett said, but the administrative law judge hasn’t yet ruled on the case.

Marie Dodds, a spokeswoman for AAA Oregon/Idaho, said her organization is directing drivers to keep up to date and get any recommended repairs right away. Beyond the listed recalls, she said she wasn’t aware of any specific concerns about the Prius.

“Anybody driving these cars needs to take an ounce of caution and check again to make sure that there haven’t been updated guidelines as far as what to do, because they may change,” she said.

Nickell said the program, which is run by the High Desert Education Service District, does not believe the cars have any safety issues and students should not be concerned.

“The safety of our students is utmost,” Nickell said. “It’s also a learning experience for kids to know this could happen to any vehicle — that’s why we need to be up on it.”

Native Hawaiian government may become reality B y Mark Niesse The Associated Press

HONOLULU — Their kingdom long ago overthrown, Native Hawaiians seeking redress are closer than they’ve ever been to reclaiming a piece of Hawaii.

Native Hawaiians are the last remaining indigenous group in the United States that hasn’t been allowed to establish their own government, a right already extended to Alaska Natives and 564 Native American tribes.

With a final vote pending in the U.S. Senate and Hawaii-born President Barack Obama on their side, the nation’s 400,000 Native Hawaiians could earn federal recognition as soon as this month — and the land, money and power that comes with it.

They measure passed the U.S. House last month.

Many Native Hawaiians believe this process could help right the wrongs perpetuated since their kingdom was overthrown in 1893. The also point to the hundreds of thousands who died from diseases spread by foreign explorers before the kingdom fell.

Native Hawaiians never fully assimilated after the first Europeans arrived in 1778: They earn less money, live shorter lives, get sent to prison more often and are more likely to end up homeless than other ethnicities, said Clyde Namuo, CEO of the Office of Hawaiian Affairs, the state-funded agency founded to improve the conditions of Native Hawaiians.

“It’s about correcting the injustice,” Namuo said. “When you look very closely at the numbers — prison, health, wealth, education — we are not at the level that our colonizers are at.”

Uncertain outcome However, just what Native Hawaiians would receive if the federal recognition measure passes Congress is uncertain. The bill sets up negotiations between a new Native Hawaiian government, the state of Hawaii and the federal government, but it doesn’t specify what resources Native Hawaiians would receive.

Namuo said he hopes the lives of Native Hawaiians would be improved if they had more control of their own destiny.

A disproportionate share of Native Hawaiians find themselves homeless, huddled beneath

Alice Greenwood used to live on the beach and is currently living in the Ulu Ke Kukui Transitional Shelter located in Waianae on the Leeward Coast. Greenwood said, “I don’t think it’s going to be enough. Even if we get money, the homeless still need more help after living on the beach for so long.”

Bert Beaman is homeless and lives with his wife at Keaau Beach Park, which is located in Makaha on the Leeward Coast area of Honolulu on the island of Oahu. Native Hawaiians could earn federal recognition this month, a process supporters hope will help improve living conditions. plastic tarps in beach camps or living in shelters. Native Hawaiians make up 28 percent of the state’s homeless who received outreach services, while accounting for about 20 percent of the population, according to last year’s report by the University of Hawaii Center on the Family.

“It’s been far too long for the Hawaiian people to be suffering,” said Bert Beaman, a Hawaiian who lives at Keaau Beach Park. “Whatever Hawaiians can get, get it and be grateful.”

Opponents of the legislation say it would give Native Hawaiians special treatment at the expense of other taxpayers. One study commissioned by a group opposed to a Native Hawaiian government predicted it would cost $343 million a year in lost tax revenue if 25 percent of the state’s lands were transferred.

“It is not the role of government to try and make up for past wrongs,” said Jamie Story, president of the Grassroot Institute of Hawaii, which promotes free markets and small government.

Supporters view the proposal as a way to provide reconciliation to the Hawaiian people that was urged in the 1993 Apology

Resolution, in which Congress acknowledged the United States’ role in the Hawaiian Kingdom’s overthrow 100 years earlier.

Housing, education, health care They hope Native Hawaiians could eventually get greater access to affordable housing, their own culturally focused education system, health centers and full-time jobs that would include teaching hula or Hawaiian language if the bill passes.

“Things would get better for Hawaiians,” said Jade Danner, vice president of the Council for Native Hawaiian Advancement.

“When Native Hawaiians are truly empowered to make their own decisions, it’s not that we’ll make better decisions than anybody else. It’s that we know our communities and we know what will work.”

Others are skeptical, including some of the homeless, who wonder whether any of these changes would help them.

“I don’t think it’s going to be enough. Even if we get money, the homeless still need more help after living on the beach

for so long,” said Alice Greenwood, who lives in transitional housing.

The amount of money and land at stake could be substantial.

About $338 million is held in trust for Native Hawaiians by the Office of Hawaiian Affairs.

In addition, University of Hawaii law professor Jon Van Dyke, who wrote “Who Owns the Crown Lands of Hawaii?” said a Hawaiian government should receive about 1 million acres — about 20 percent of the state’s land mass that was once monarchy property.

How the trust money and land would be used is a big question, said Kaulana Park, chairman of the Department of Hawaiian Home Lands, which provides housing to Native Hawaiians on former kingdom lands.

“Where that goes nobody knows, whether it’s housing, economic development or health,” Park said. “The first hurdle is to get it passed.”

A majority of Native Hawaiians favor this process of federal recognition, Namuo said. But it is opposed by pro-independence groups who want the Hawaiian kingdom restored.

Indoor bike event a fundraiser for junior programs

Bend starts season with win over Klamath

An indoor cycling event this Saturday in Bend will serve as a fundraiser for area junior cycling programs.

Rebound Sports Performance Lab will host an indoor time trial every hour from 7 a.m. until noon. The course will be simulated on computer-controlled bike trainers and will cover the final 18 miles of the annual spring classics race: Italy’s Milan-San Remo.

Entry fee is $10, and all proceeds benefit the junior cycling programs of the Bend Endurance Academy and the Mt. Bachelor Sports Education Foundation. Prizes for fastest times will be awarded.

— Bulletin staff report

Bulletin staff report Kenny Norgaard and Grant Newton both hit home runs to lead Bend High to a season-opening 7-5 victory over Klamath Union at Vince Genna Stadium on Monday.

“We’re happy with it,” Bend coach Dan Weber said about the victory. “Any time you can get a win in an opener, you’re happy with that.”

Chris Zelmer picked up the win in relief for the Lava Bears (1-0).

Norgaard (two-run homer in the first inning) and Newton (solo blast in the third) both had a pair of runs batted in and Chase Clair added two hits to help the reigning Intermountain Conference champions win their first game of the year.

As a team, Bend High produced seven runs on

seven hits and committed four errors.

Klamath Union (0-1) led 5-4 after three innings, but the Lava Bears scored three runs in the bottom of the fifth to win the game. Entering the game in the fourth inning, Zelmer did not give up a run in four innings of relief work.

The Lava Bears’ next game is a road contest at Aloha on Thursday.

hen he’s not mountain biking, Adam Craig finds plenty of other extreme sports to keep him busy: backcountry skiing, whitewater kayaking, dirt biking and rally-car racing. America’s No. 1 mountain biker admits that he never fully commits to these elective adventure sports, knowing that it is his lower extremities that ultimately pay the bills.

Ironic, then, that during his nearly 10-year professional mountain biking career, his first — and so far, his only — sidelining injury was not the result of an accident involving his bike or his skis.

“It would be more interesting if it was,” said Craig last week during an interview at his west Bend home, adding with a laugh: “We were on our way home from skiing.”

On a snowy and slippery day early last month, Craig, 28, fell in a local grocery store parking lot. He knew imme-

“I slipped and basically simulated an exact skiing ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) tear,” he recounted. “I was on

my butt and sliding, and then my foot hooked up on this muddy pile thing.”

That the left knee felt terribly wrong, Craig said, “was obvious.”

“It just tucked back,” he remem-

bered. “I felt something give way, and pretty obviously that was what that sensation would be like.”

A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) exam the next day confirmed a tear to the ACL, and Craig underwent surgery to repair the ligament — which stabilizes the knee front to back — the following week.

Derailed were his plans to compete in the Pan American Continental Mountain Bike Championships in Guatemala in early April, along with a slate of springtime mountain bike World Cup races in Europe for which he was gearing up.

Instead, the 2008 Olympian has been catching up on household projects, reading, and attending twice-weekly physical therapy sessions.

Only in the last two weeks has Craig been able to ditch his crutches. He is seeing steady improvement in his knee’s range of motion. He is able to ride indoors and will soon move to road riding outside.

S B Basketball • Portland’s Roy wins Player of the Week honors: Portland Trail Blazers guard Brandon Roy has been named the NBA Western Conference Player of the Week. The AllStar averaged 27 points while leading the Trail Blazers to four victories last week. He had 41 points in a comeback win at Golden State. This is the fifth time Roy has won the award in his career. Clyde Drexler is the only other player in franchise history to win it that often.

Sled dog racing • Mackey cuts rest, extends Iditarod lead over King: Three-time defending champion Lance Mackey is poised to claim his fourth consecutive win in the 1,100mile Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race over a route beset by bitter cold. Mackey was the first out of the checkpoint of Elim, 123 miles from the finish line in Nome and 28 miles from the next checkpoint at the Inupiat Eskimo village of Golovin. Mackey left Elim at 1:06 p.m. Alaska Daylight Time Monday. Earlier in the day, he was running two hours ahead of four-time champion Jeff King when he left the checkpoint at the Eskimo village of Koyuk with 12 dogs.

Golf • Lamely wins Puerto Rico Open at 19 under: Derek Lamely had to contend with a rain-delayed start, slow play on a soggy course, and tamping down his inevitable nerves as he inched closer to notching his first win as a rookie on the PGA Tour. But the 29-year-old American emerged out of the pack with easygoing style, shooting a 66 Monday to win the Puerto Rico Open by two strokes.

He finished at 19-under-par 269, setting a tournament record at Trump International Golf Club-Puerto Rico, in Rio Grande, Puerto Rico.

UConn

First Round 1 Connecticut (33-0)

Continued from D1 The Cardinal, the last team to beat Connecticut, earned their first No. 1 seed since 1998.

Tennessee earned the No. 1 seed a year after getting bounced from the tournament in the first round. And Nebraska has its first No. 1 seed in school history after winning its first 30 games this season. The Cornhuskers lost their only game of the season in the Big 12 tournament semifinals.

“We evaluated Nebraska’s resume, and even though they lost in the Big 12 tournament we felt that it was important to keep them on that first line,” NCAA selection committee chair Jane Meyer said.

The Huskies (33-0), too, have run through their opponents this season, winning by an average of 35 points.

In search of its seventh national championship, UConn is looking to become the fifth team to win consecutive titles.

Tennessee last did it in 2007 and 2008.

Awaiting the Huskies in the second round could be former assistant Tonya Cardoza and the Temple Owls. They face James Madison in the first round. It’s the second straight year that Auriemma could face his former assistant. Last season Temple lost in the first round to Florida.

While other teams look to make history in the tournament, the Lady Vols had enough of that last year. Tennessee, a No. 5 seed last season, lost in the first round to Ball State, marking the first time in the program’s history that the team didn’t advance out of the opening weekend.

Tennessee will open up at home against Austin Peay in the Memphis region. The Lady Govs (15-17) are the eighth team in NCAA history to make the tournament with a losing record. They upset Eastern Illinois to win the Ohio Valley tournament. The Lady Vols and Austin Peay are two of six teams from the state of Tennessee in the field.

ACC champion Duke earned a No. 2 seed and will host the first two rounds. The Blue Devils will play Mid-

Eastern champion Hampton in the opener. LSU meets Hartford in the other game at Cameron.

If Duke gets through to the regional semifinals, a meeting with former coach Gail Goestenkors and Texas could await. The selection committee placed the Blue Devils and Longhorns in the same corner of the bracket, but that matchup didn’t materialize last year.

“You can’t think that far ahead anyway,” Duke senior Joy Cheek said.

Five teams will be making their debut in the NCAA tour-

Rockets bring Nuggets’ win streak to an end HOUSTON — Don’t tell the Houston Rockets they are out of the playoff picture just yet.

Aaron Brooks swished a jumper with 2.9 seconds left and scored 31 points to help the Rockets rally for a 125-123 victory over Denver on Monday night, snapping the Nuggets’ six-game winning streak.

Carmelo Anthony scored 45 points for the Nuggets, but missed a three-point try at the buzzer. Luis Scola grabbed the final rebound and finished with 23 points and 11 boards.

Houston, now five games behind Portland in the race for the last Western Conference playoff spot, has won three in a row for the first time since mid-December.

“We don’t have much room for error,” said Scola, who was coming off a career-high, 44-point game. “It’s only like a month away, the end of the season, so we need to win games.”

Scola converted a key three-point play with 41 seconds remaining to put Houston ahead 122-121.

Brooks split two free throws before Anthony drove past Shane Battier for a layup to tie it at 123. Brooks then dribbled around Anthony Carter and hit the go-ahead shot from the right of the freethrow line.

Kevin Martin scored 29 points for Houston. Chauncey Billups and J.R. Smith added 17 apiece for the Nuggets.

The Nuggets led 104-93 with 10 minutes left in the game after trailing by as much as 16 in the first half.

Battier’s corner three with 8:05 left capped a 7-0 spurt to draw the Rockets within four.

The Rockets couldn’t crack the four-point deficit until Scola swished a jumper from the wing with 3:25 to go to cut

Second Round

nament — Dayton, Princeton, Arkansas-Little Rock, Portland State and Northern Iowa.

Baylor freshman Brittney Griner, too, will get her first taste of the NCAA tournament. The Lady Bears earned a No. 4 seed and will play Fresno State in the first round. Griner, who drew national attention coming into college as a dunking phenom, made headlines again on March 3 after throwing a punch in a game against Texas Tech. She was suspended for two games by the school for her actions.

But it all comes back to UConn.

it to 115-113.

Denver stretched the lead to five, but couldn’t put away Houston. Trevor Ariza’s threepointer with 1:09 left made it 121-119, Arron Afflalo missed a three and Scola rebounded.

He got the ball to Brooks, then charged down the lane for a tying layup. Billups fouled out on the play and Scola hit the ensuing free throw to put the Rockets ahead.

“The last couple of games, I think we played great,” Scola said. “Today, we fought.”

Also on Monday: Celtics . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .119 Pistons . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .93 BOSTON — Paul Pierce, Ray Allen and Michael Finley scored 15 points apiece, and Kevin Garnett had 14 points and eight rebounds to help Boston coast to a victory over Detroit.

The Huskies could face No. 2 seed Ohio State in Dayton in the regional finals — if the Buckeyes can get by third seed Florida State.

“There are some teams in our bracket that are a lot better than people give them credit for,” Auriemma said. “I like when you are playing teams that you’re seeing for the first time, and are seeing you for the first time.”

That’s certainly not the case with the Cardinal (31-1), who beat the Huskies in the 2008 NCAA tournament semifinals. Stanford will open this year’s tournament

hosting UC Riverside in the Sacramento region.

Louisville became just the third team to play in the national championship game and not make the tournament the next season. The Cardinals are one of seven schools that are hosting first- and second-round games that won’t be playing in the NCAA tournament.

The Big East and Big 12 each garnered seven bids. The SEC and ACC each had six. In all, 12 conferences received multiple bids — the highest number since 2001.

Continued from D1 According to Timmy Evans, Craig’s physical therapist at Rebound Physical Therapy in Bend, patients recovering from ACL surgery are most vulnerable to re-injuring a repaired knee at about the two-month mark following the operation.

“Around two to three months (the knee) is at its weakest point in the healing process,” Evans explained. “This is right about the time it feels like you are back to 80 to 90 percent ability. This is the dangerous time.”

That said, “A cyclist can be back on the bike much quicker than, say, a skier,” Evans continued. “Our worry is not having (Adam) push himself mountain biking at a time when he could retear his knee in a technical section (of trail).”

The good news is that the entire 2010 mountain bike season is not lost for Craig. Both he and Evans expect that Craig can be back to racing by June, though likely not at full speed.

From a personal point of view, the 12-time national champion and America’s top-ranked men’s mountain biker on the world stage said he is not too concerned about missing a few spring races.

In fact, he thinks a few months of rest from racing — something he has never had a chance to do during his professional career — could pay huge dividends later in the season.

What has Craig worried is that his absence from racing on the world scene, however brief, could have costly implications for American mountain bikers come selection time for the 2012 Olympic Summer Games in London.

He explained that the top five ranked nations earn the right to send three cross-country mountain bikers to London, while nations ranked sixth through 15th are limited to sending only two.

Rankings are determined by the points a country’s top three riders accrue at UCI (International Cycling Union) events this year and next.

“We’re right on the bubble right now,” Craig said. “(The U.S.) is sixth in nation ranking, with Germany fifth and Canada seventh. But we’re all within 100 points of each other.

“Sam Schultz and Todd Wells (the second- and third-ranked U.S. riders), both pull their weight and go to races and do a good job,” Craig continued. “I hope one of us doesn’t get the flick at the Olympics because of my screw-up that cost us a bunch of points.”

Craig added that the debilitating knee injury has given him added motivation to perform at the top of his game later in the season. Specifically, he is targeting the World Cup finals, set for late August in New York, and the mountain bike world championships, set for early September in Quebec, to redeem himself from missing out on early-season points.

“All that stuff can be erased so easily by getting a medal at the world championships, which I can totally accomplish,” he insisted. “So missing the early part of the season is annoying and far from ideal, but it’s easy to make up for things if you just buckle down and do a good job.”

To add insult to injury, Craig — on the day of his surgery — was scheduled to be on a plane for Amsterdam, where he was to take part in a media launch of his new European mountain bike team: Rabobank-Giant Off-Road Team.

“I felt like a jerk,” he reflected.

“The timing of it all was pretty ridiculous. If (the injury) had happened a few weeks earlier I could have gone over there and at least given high-fives. The European team, they are looking to me to be their star rider for the year … they are trying to get good momentum behind this team, and you want to please those people because ultimately they’re trying to support what you’re doing.”

Craig noted that being part of the European-based RabobankGiant team will mean established logistical support when he competes overseas.

“It’ll give me the opportunity to race more in Europe if I need to or want to,” he said.

For now, Craig has resigned himself to kayaking and easy road cycling while his knee gradually heals.

“I’ve never been one to cry over spilled milk,” he contended.

“It’s a crappy situation. I feel more bad about it for letting other people down who depend on me than for me personally.

“Whenever I stop and think about it,” he added, “it gets a little depressing. But I don’t stop and think about it very much.”

HORSE COUNTRY

Horses on the cutting edge Ranch method of cutting finds competitive home

By Anne Aurand For The Bulletin

Keith Kitchen rides Sparklynn Smart GiGi slowly and quietly into a herd of about 20 young heifers. The horse and rider nonchalantly split off about six cows. Then they focus on a little black cow, isolate it and control it.

This method is called cutting, as in cutting a cow out of the herd. Once a basic ranching skill, cutting has boomed internationally as a competitive sport, with lucrative events for professionals or low-key competitions for weekend hobbyists.

Kitchen, 43, is a professional cutting horse trainer. He sits balanced, relaxed but ready, on top of the athletic horse. He lets go of the reins, guiding 4-year-old GiGi with only his legs.

When the little cow bolts to rejoin the herd, GiGi blocks its path in a flash. GiGi makes short, precise, fast movements that mirror the cow’s.

More accurately, they’re on the water, or up in the air — just like their future plans.

For much of the past eight years, the couple has lived the kind of life that can make you feel as if your life is a billboard advertising boring.

Mostly, they’ve spent those years traveling and working on expedition-style cruise ships touring Alaska, British Columbia, Central America, Baja California and, closer to their adopted home, the Columbia River.

Like their peers, the two wear many hats when working on boats: Kastenholz has worked as a naturalist, hotel manager, deck hand and general crew member, while Stockland has been a first mate and captain.

Also like their colleagues, the seafaring couple have hopscotched from boat to boat, something that’s common in their chosen field but doesn’t look great on a résumé when trying to settle on dry land, they say.

Trips home fill with family, leaving little time for friend Dear Abby: I return to my hometown at least twice a year to visit my large extended family. When I do, I have tried to make time for my oldest friend, “Judith,” whom I have known since kindergarten.

In the past we have gotten together for a few hours here and there — for dinner, coffee or whatever.

She’s great company, and we have fun together.

I’d like to spend more time with Judith, but Mom and Dad are close to 90 and there are many other relatives on my and my husband’s side to see, which takes up most of our time.

Years ago, we tried to see all our friends, but more recently we have limited it to Judith and her husband and occasionally include a mutual friend.

Judith just e-mailed me telling me to “have a nice life” because if we were “truly” friends, I’d make more time with her. She won’t reply to my e-mails or return my calls.

I respect her feelings, but feel pressured by the time constraints of our brief visits home. Judith has no children, a single brother and a married brother with whom she recently reunited.

I feel like I have committed some kind of crime. I think if she was a true friend, she’d understand my predicament. Please help.

— Deeply Hurt in Arizona Dear Hurt: Your pal Judith doesn’t appear to have matured much since kindergarten. Her behavior is petulant, immature and self-centered. Although you care for her, you cannot shirk your family obligations in order to placate her. If Judith can’t appreciate that you have placed your family first, it’s regrettable, but please don’t permit her to punish you for it. You’re doing the right thing and, although you may be hurt right now, let that be your consolation.

Dear Abby: I have been involved with “Rich” for 4½ years.

We are now engaged. In the beginning, everything was great.

What I didn’t know was that Rich had a baby on the way. I learned where fitness gets personal

DEAR ABBY about it from a young woman who knocked on our door nine months later.

Rich said he was sorry and that he’d handle it. I knew the situation would be hard to accept, but suppressed my feelings like I always do instead of being honest about it.

Now this woman comes over whenever she wants. If she’s angry about something, she’ll say, “I don’t want my baby around HER,” meaning me. She has friends who work with me, and she has spread lies about me there. She has also called my house on several occasions and has been rude and nasty.

I have tried to deal with this, but Rich’s infidelity and his having a child with another woman still hurts like it happened yesterday — and the child is now 3.

Can you help me?

— Not Moving On in Virginia Dear Not Moving On: I’ll try.

Before things evolve any further, don’t you think that it’s time to be open and honest? You have unresolved anger issues to deal with, and rightfully so. That’s why I strongly advise you and your fiance to start premarital and couples counseling NOW. Did Rich know he had gotten a girl pregnant before she knocked on the door and told you? If so, then what other information might he also have forgotten to mention?

And why would he tolerate the abusive behavior that the baby’s mama is dishing out to you? If you want to be treated with the respect you deserve, you must assert yourself. And if you don’t get it, then I advise you to ditch Rich.

From Leonard, a lawman ready to shoot

By David Carr

‘Justified’

New York Times News Service

There are a few ways to discern that Raylan Givens, the character at the center of the FX series “Justified,” is an Elmore Leonard creation.

Although he is a deputy U.S. marshal in a very contemporary milieu, he wears a big old cowboy hat, and his pistol, which he carries in a side holster, comes out only when he gets down to business.

Regardless of the circumstance, he doesn’t spend a lot of time waving it around, but when it does reveal itself in a flash, the bodies tend to fall around him. Oh, and one other thing: As played by Timothy Olyphant, the steely gaze of a lawman with mortal tendencies is replaced with a courtly manner and a twinkle of mirth in his eye. In fact just about everybody in “Justified” displays very good manners while doing some very ill-mannered things.

The series, which will have its premiere on FX tonight, grew out of an Elmore Leonard short story, “Fire in the Hole” and situates Givens in Kentucky, where he grew up and vowed never to return.

Tackling Leonard’s dialogue “Justified” is hardly the first attempt to render the dialogue of Leonard, the author of dozens of novels over the last half-century, suitable for the small screen. But while some of the films made from his novels — “Out of Sight,” “Get Shorty” and “Jackie Brown” — have found critical and commercial success, the medium of television has not always been so kind to the Leonard oeuvre. Network efforts like “Karen Cisco” and “Maximum Bob” tanked, in part because Leonard’s characters tend to do and say

Wh e n : 10 tonight Where: FX

Carlos Osorio / The Associated Press

The new FX series “Justified” grew out of an Elmore Leonard short story, “Fire in the Hole.” “I don’t write for laughs, but I have fun writing, and I think the people doing ‘Justified’ are doing the same thing,” said Leonard, seen above. things that don’t fly with network standards.

On FX, thanks to basic cable’s less restrictive policies, the people in “Justified” cuss and sleep around, the former stripper really does have a heart of gold, and the neo-Nazi is charming and loquacious.

Part of the reason “Justified” is able to skate away from the usual tics of television is that the series doesn’t take place in some gritty version of New York, or explore the throbbing night scene of Miami or the dark side of Los Angeles. The setting in Kentucky, where the lawman and the suspect might have once mined coal together, democratizes the landscape on both sides of the law.

Leonard, 84, won a PEN Lifetime Achievement Award last year for a literary career that has included “52 Pickup,” “Freaky Deaky” and “Be Cool.” He’s never been shy about speaking up when he thought his work was mangled, but he’s clearly happy with “Justified.”

“I don’t write for laughs, but I have fun writing, and I think the people doing ‘Justified’ are doing the same thing,” he said.

“There is a freedom from the

ALWAYS STIRRING UP SOMETHING GOOD Serving Central Oregon Since 1975

kinds of formulas that networks usually use, and the characters are complicated. They aren’t just one thing.”

Good and ill, sweet and sour Raylan Givens, like most of Leonard’s characters, contains multitudes, good and ill, sweet and sour, criminal and not. He is more than happy to share a bit of moonshine with a boyhood friend turned suspect before taking him out. Olyphant played a reluctant sheriff in “Deadwood,” but in “Justified” he relishes the job, especially the part about dispatching someone after giving him fair warning. There are notes of laconic characters played by Clint Eastwood and Tommy Lee Jones in his performance, although he’s a little more fun to be around.

“He is very laid back and takes his time, but when he says something, he means it,” Leonard said. “He says, ‘If you take another step, I will shoot you,’ and then he takes another step and Givens does.”

Olyphant is not surprised to be finding himself wearing a badge again, but says he thinks

this one is pinned on a pretty interesting character, one who’s back in his hometown after a bloody confrontation with a fugitive in Miami made the suits there nervous.

“Raylan is a guy who can’t walk through someone’s door without permission but is more than willing to kill once he does,” he said. “I am constantly going through the books to make sure we are hitting all those notes. My experience with reading Elmore is that I can’t go into the library and open any of his books to a random page and not find something that just cracks me up.”

For FX “Justified” features another in a series of conflicted heroes, or sometimes, antiheroes.

With “Damages,” Rescue Me,” “The Shield” and “Nip/Tuck” FX has come up with a menu of characters we root both for and against, as dramatic circumstance requires.

Zack Van Amburg, co-president for programming with Jamie Erlicht at Sony Pictures Television, which also produces “Rescue Me,” said “Justified” was an attempt to take the “anti” out of hero and still render a lead character that has texture.

“When I read ‘Fire in the Hole,’ it was the most captivating story I had read in a long time,” he said. “With this show it begins with Elmore. As Graham said when we got started, we are trying to capture not just a story, but life, through an Elmore Leonard prism.”

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Tuesday, March 16, 2010: This year, the unexpected runs riot. Actually, you are the common denominator in all this activity; therefore, to make the assumption that you are the source is not far-fetched. Somehow you use Lady Luck well and always land on your feet. Your assets, both financially and emotionally, could come into play. If you are single, check out each suitor carefully.

Someone might not be all he or she seems. If you are attached, this year begins a new cycle in your relationship. Use it to make your life together better. ARIES is great at spending your money.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHHH You feel renewed.

Though an associate or friend could have a case of the bahhumbugs, you cruise right through.

Know what you want and why.

You could be difficult to stop, as you seem to be empowered.

Tonight: The world is your oyster. Have that special talk.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH Much could go on behind the scenes. How you handle it could determine the end results.

Certainly, you don’t have all the right answers, but you are open to finding them. A surprise revelation could put you on a different course.

Tonight: Do what you need to do.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHH Look at what is motivating

you and others to unprecedented levels. You might understand a lot more about a situation than you realize. Focus on getting a project off the ground. Others cannot help but respond.

Tonight: Where the action is.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH Take a leadership role if you want to get a project off the ground. You might not like not having a choice, but that is the lay of the land. Understand what is needed from you.

Tonight: In the thick of things.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHHH Keep reaching out for someone near and dear. Your ability to move through a problem emerges. Detach once more and seek out facts. Nevertheless, someone could really surprise you. Listen more. Share more.

You have what it takes. Tonight: Surf the Net, or relax to a movie.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Sometimes it is difficult to understand what motivates others. If you pull yourself out of the situation, you’ll have the opportunity to see a matter differently. Your finances are out of whack. You are far more easygoing and together than in the past. Tonight: Listen to a friend.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH You understand what is happening on a deep level. The unexpected occurs at work and in your daily life. Defer to those around you. Look at what is happening between you and a key person. Tonight: Defer, defer, defer.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH A relaxed and easy pace

works. Pressure builds around a personal matter. Your even behavior might be unusual, and you could be questioning what is going on. A mild sense of negativity could be descending on you. Tonight: Put your feet up. You need a break.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHHH Don’t allow a friend to push you too hard. Use your ingenuity to make yourself and others happy. Your finances remain a key issue. Don’t spend what you don’t have. Enjoy what is happening with a child or loved one. Tonight: Forget the day of the week; respond to the moment.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Knowing your priorities might be important. You could be juggling two different concerns.

If you work from home, you might want to focus on work and then take a break. A personal matter could knock on your door. Tonight: Order in.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH You might want to re-evaluate an offer that involves finances. Communication keeps you busy. Realize what is happening financially. You might not be able to see the big picture. Your caring comes out.

Tonight: Chat with a friend.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Your surprising actions could provoke some very strong reactions. Understanding could help soothe some of the ruffled feathers. Be careful how you deal with someone you care about. Tonight: Treat yourself. © 2009 by King Features Syndicate

Seafarers

locally, Stockland as a helicopter flight instructor.

One needs to be an instructor, initially, he says. “That’s kind of how you build your (flight) hours. If I can get hired on here when I’m done, yeah, we would be planted here for a couple of years.”

“Which would be great, because we haven’t been in one spot for — ” Kastenholz begins.

“But then that’s another industry that’s going to require me to wander for a little bit,” he says. “I don’t think we get tired of the travel, but we tend to switch around what we’re doing.”

They’ve tried a couple of times to get work here, but, he says, with the economy and the work they’re used to doing, they’ve instead kept coming and going. They each work six weeks on, six weeks off, this last time in Central America.

Stockland was supposed to head down to Panama City again last week for boat work, but he arranged to stay in Bend to finish his helicopter training.

They’ve been in Alaska every summer since 2002, and Kastenholz is slated to go again “if nothing pans out here.”

Continued from E1

Funny parallels The couple isn’t sure fate brought them together, but “our life is kind of funny, because there are parallels,” Kastenholz says. “We’re both from the Midwest. I grew up in northern Ohio — Oberlin — and he grew up in Duluth, Minn.”

“Now that I think about it, it all goes — deep,” Stockland adds. “I got on boats a day after high school.”

That day, he stepped onto the deck of a 1,000-foot freighter that sailed the Great Lakes. He continued working aboard Great Lakes boats a few more years before heading west.

“Randomly, we both moved to Colorado the same year, in ’97,” Kastenholz says.

“Same month too, wasn’t it?” Stockland asks.

“Yeah,” she replies, stressing, “and didn’t know each other.”

Not yet. She moved to Crested Butte, then attended Western State College of Colorado, where she studied history.

Stockland ended up in Boulder. “I was on my way to the mountains, and I got trapped by a job,” he says, referring to a four-year stretch he spent working for ski manufacturer Volant.

That’s the longest he’s settled in one place. In 2002, he decided to leave the Boulder area for boat work in Alaska, and “I’ve been going ever since,” he says.

That same year, Kastenholz decided to head to Alaska; both wound up working on ships in southeast Alaska’s Inside Passage.

In 2003, Stockland joined a company Kastenholz was already with, but they didn’t meet until the spring of 2004, when the ship they were on was going through the Panama Canal.

“The boat was down in Belize (that) year,” Kastenholz says. “We had friends in common, because we had different rotations coming and going from the boat.

And I had never met him somehow.”

The two have been lucky, they say.

The first three years of their relationship, they were for the most part able to live, travel and work together.

For one two-month period, they were apart.

“Our boats were doing similar itineraries,” Kastenholz says. “We were literally passing each other, but there’s no

Cutting Continued from E1 They look as if they’re dancing. Facing the cow, GiGi pivots on her back legs, her front body jumping 180 degrees. If her body is pointed toward the side of the arena, GiGi bursts straight backward or forward to keep her body between the isolated cow and the herd. GiGi, who was a finalist at the South Point Open Futurity in Las Vegas last year, moves like a basketball player on defense.

Finally the cow gets tired or gives up and stands still. Game over.

This is just a practice session at home, but Kitchen regularly competes in cutting on his own horses or those he boards and trains on his 40-acre Tumalo ranch.

As a sport Cutting horses are typically quarter horses, specifically bred for agility, strength and a cow sense required of the event.

Originating in the Western United States, cutting started from necessity. During the openrange era, ranchers had to round up their cattle that mingled with other herds. At home, a rancher had to separate cows from herds to tend to a sick one, to vaccinate, castrate, brand.

The first advertised cutting contest was in 1898 in Texas, according to the National Cutting Horse Association. The sport was added to a Texas rodeo in 1919, its debut as an arena spectator event. It became its own show the following year and is now not generally associated with rodeos. By 1946, the National Cutting Horse Association formed to establish continuity in what had become a rampant and wide-ranging sport.

Kitchen lives by these rules; cutting is his life. He trains, shows, sells and breeds cutting horses with his girlfriend and partner Nan Johnston. He’s also a high-level judge for National Cutting Horse Association shows around the country.

Most of Kitchen’s days are spent at home riding the horses, working with cows, building the close connection between horse and rider that makes cutting work. These days he’s preparing for upcoming events where he hopes to win some cash. Training jobs keep the ranch going, he said. Winning events makes the lifestyle profitable.

This wasn’t the life Kitchen had planned for himself. Raised in Missouri with cattle and horses, he grew up competing in ro-

cell service, you know what I mean?”

For two years, they worked together on a day-trip boat out of Juneau; Kastenholz likens the whales they saw daily to family. During that stretch, the two would work almost daily for six months, then take the next six months off for travel to such places as Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam.

Adam is a photographer as well, and his shots from their trip to Antarctica in November and December are almost otherworldly. Their rich tones belie the easy assumption that Antarctica is merely blanketed in white. (To see more of his photography, visit www.adam stockland.com.)

Kastenholz still marvels at the colors of Antarctica, as well as the penguins.

They visited the Falklands and old whaling camps and saw Antarctica explorer Ernest Shackleton’s grave on South Georgia Island.

The trip “was the chance of a lifetime,” she says.

deos. He aimed to be a veterinarian and went to school at Northeast Missouri State University.

He came across some cutting horses just at a time when “bull riding was getting hard on my body and I was trying to find something as much fun but without the injury risk.”

“I fell in love with cutting horses and gave up on vet school,” he said with a drawl.

He finished a bachelor’s degree in equine science and became a trainer. He followed jobs to Texas, Oklahoma, Las Vegas, California and Washington before he came to Bend about 10 years ago. He hopes eventually to make it back to Texas, which he called the “hotbed” for cutting, home to the highest levels of competition.

The Texas-based National Cutting Horse Association has a region that includes most of the Pacific Northwest and Alaska.

Regional director Jack Holt, also the owner of the Murray & Holt Motors auto dealership in Bend, said Central Oregon is the most active area in the region, probably because of its healthy availability of cattle.

The National Cutting Horse Association grew last year, which is “remarkable,” Holt said, considering the economy. It’s also growing internationally, in Europe, Australia and South America.

Events within the association are generally categorized by the age of the horse, and 3-year-olds are the high-dollar winners.

“The futurities are the first shows for the 3-year-old horses,” said Patty Rauch, who owns horses, including GiGi, that Kitchen trains and rides. “It’s kind of a big deal, because how the 3-year-olds do in their first shows of their careers is a big boost to their sires, if they do well.”

Last year, one of Kitchen’s horses was Idaho Futurity cham-

‘Where’s your car?’

Kastenholz says the two don’t generally get invited to friends’ weddings anymore — because no one knows where they are at any given time — but their parents support their lifestyle.

“They don’t ask questions anymore,” Stockland adds.

There’s something to be said for constant movement, but their lifestyle has made some things difficult, such as getting auto insurance and their mail.

“Our mail at one point was backlogged from, like, four places earlier,” Kastenholz says. “We couldn’t figure it out. People were like, ‘Well, where’s your car going to be?’”

“We literally didn’t have an address. It was the blue Subaru out in the parking lot,” Stockland adds.

“The system’s not set up” for people like them, he says.

Back in Alaska, the boat they worked

on carried workers and supplies to the construction site of a hydroelectric power plant.

Stockland was drawn to the helicopters that carried explosives workers on the project.

“We were around that thing every day, and finally one day I looked at her and I said, ‘I’m doing that.’ And I’ve been after it ever since,” Stockland says.

They came to Bend so he could study at Leading Edge Aviation’s helicopter school.

“Now, Adam’s flying helicopters here, so we’re kind of switching gears,” she says.

Sitting in their apartment above Jackson’s Corner in Bend, the couple seems fairly settled.

“This is the most stuff we’ve ever owned,” he says, “and if you took the couch and the bed out of it, we could still get it all in the car.”

“Less is better for us,” she adds.

Both say they would like to find work

“We’re addicted to the lifestyle of coming and going and not just sitting around all the time,” she says. “We really like it.

“This last year was a little hairy because we weren’t on the same rotations or the same boats. We were kind of coming and going a lot, not seeing each other,” she continues. “And it’s really hard for us during this transition period of trying to become land people, and just trying to comprehend looking for jobs.

You only get two weeks off a year, and you work 9 to 5.”

And Alaska seems to be calling them.

“This time of year comes around, and I’m dying to see the whales and the bears. It’s kind of hard. It’s afforded us so many opportunities to travel and meet people,” she says. “It’s amazing.

You get to work with your friends and work on a cool boat.”

There are places they’ve yet to go, including New Zealand and the Arctic.

“We want to travel a whole lot more,” Kastenholz says. “We’ve never done Europe. We’ll go to the tougher places while we’re young.”

pion, and the winner’s sire was one of Kitchen’s studs, too. This is good advertisement in the breeding business.

Cutters can compete at any level they want, Holt said, and the system is arranged to make events fair for any level of competitor. A weekend hobby rider doesn’t have to go up against the likes of Kitchen.

Professionals like Kitchen, or another local trainer and competitor named Russ Elrod, are drawn to open divisions where the big bucks are, Holt said.

Nonprofessionals like Holt, amateurs just getting started or those who are only interested in it as a hobby, can compete in divisions that allow only horses and riders with similar experience and abilities.

ROMESCO

GARDEN

FOOD

1 SAUCE, 100 USES

By Jan Roberts-Dominguez For The Bulletin

here are some recipes that are so special you just want to share them with the world.

Romesco sauce is such a creation. A dreamy blend of roasted tomatoes, peppers and hazelnuts, thickened with fried bread and spiked with the smoky hint of Spanish paprika, red wine vinegar and fresh garlic, this sauce comes packed with promise.

The consistency of pesto and the reddish hue of a Tuscan sunset, this classic Catalonian sauce does Spain proud.

It enhances the delicate flavors of grilled prawns ro•mes•co n. A classic Spanish and vegetables, looks sauce of roasted tomatoes and peppers, olive and tastes fabulous when oil, toasted hazelnuts and fried bread. Once tossed with creamy-white blended, it has the consistency of pesto (with pasta, and adds a rich a slight graininess from the nuts), the color dimension to a simple of a rosy Tuscan sunset and a rich, tomatoappetizer of fresh ciabatta pepper-garlic flavor. It complements many bread and extra-aged foods, including grilled shellfish and halibut, Gouda. When stirred into lamb, pasta and even a simple offering of a seafood stew or spooned toasted bread (as a dipping sauce). It keeps over freshly grilled halibut for up to two weeks in the refrigerator. or scallops, it elevates the flavor profile in an elegant, See recipe on Page F2. understated way.

And it’s been around for eons. Which is why I’m surprised that more people don’t know about it. But more often than not, when I share a bowl of romesco sauce at a party, I get some curious looks.

Then they dip a chunk of the aforementioned bread into it, take a bite and utter a sigh. It’s that yummy.

Like anything that comes tagged with the term “classic,” romesco sauce has myriad variations.

Traditionally speaking, instead of plain old sweet red peppers, romesco is made with dried Nora peppers, which are similar to the Mexican cascabel chili pepper, only sweeter and slightly milder.

The grass is always greener ... ... after you fertilize, and consider these other tips on High Desert growing

By Leon Pantenburg For The Bulletin

If my neighbors across the street weren’t such wonderful people and good friends, it would be really easy to hate them. Every year, their lawn looks like it is a finalist in some “House Beautiful” contest. The manicured, brilliant emerald green grass glistens in the sun, and the turf is uniformly thick and lush.

There is never a blade out of place, and the edging is done with (in my opinion) obsessive-compulsive regularity. They obviously enjoy working in their yard.

Across the street, I attempt to keep up. It’s shaded most of the day by large pine trees, so it never really gets full sun, and the grass blades have to fight it out with bushels of pine needles every fall. Worn spots mark the neighborhood kids’ favorite play areas, and dogs converge on my grass to roughhouse and relieve themselves. In our neighborhood lawn contest, there is no hint of a level playing field.

But spring’s almost here, and now is the time to prepare your lawn to green up. So all you need to do is turn on the sprinkler system, right?

Like all gardening in this region, there’s no easy answer. There are probably thousands of microclimates in Central Oregon, and differences in elevation and temperature make growing grass a challenge.

The resulting west Bend home surpassed even his own expectations.

Maul and his wife, Beverly, were given a platinum rating from the U.S. Green Building Council for their stunning custom home.

Since its inception in 1973, the nonprofit has awarded Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design ratings. The platinum rating the Mauls received on their new home is the highest available.

“I wanted to show that green can be beautiful,” said David Maul, who knows plenty about energy efficiency, being the CEO of Maul Energy Advisors, which consults on commercial projects. “I believe our home is only one of two homes in Central Oregon that has received this platinum rating.”

COVER STORY

Romesco Continued from F1 However, in most parts of the U.S., you’re not going to find Noras, or even cascabels for that matter, without journeying along the Internet. So the most common variation on this sauce is to use fresh, sweet red peppers that have been roasted and seeded, along with a hefty pinch of dried red pepper flakes for heat. This is the only way I’ve ever made my romesco sauce. But the results are magnificent, so I’m not worried.

I’ve also added a bit of ground

BETTER COOKING

chipotle chili pepper (McCormick sells one in the spice aisle), which is a close substitute for authentic and smoky Spanish paprika (which is another one of those harder-to-find items).

So give this amazing sauce a spin. Your family and friends will be amazed at your savvy side, and you’ll feel lucky to have enriched your recipe arsenal with such a versatile dish.

Garlic

Roasted red pepper Bread, Italian-style

Olive oil

Hazelnuts Photos for The Bulletin

ROMESCO SAUCE Makes about 3 cups.

About 2 TBS of olive oil, divided 1 lb of Roma tomatoes (4 med) 1 red sweet bell pepper (see note below) 2 (1-inch thick) slices of an Italian-style bread (measuring approximately 6-by-3 inches), such as ciabatta or pugliese 1 C roasted hazelnuts, cooled, skins rubbed off (see note below)

3 garlic cloves, crushed and peeled 1 to 2 tsp red pepper flakes 1 tsp Spanish paprika ½ tsp ground chipotle chili pepper (McCormick sells one in the spice aisle) ½ tsp salt ¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper ¼ C red wine or sherry vinegar ½ C extra-virgin olive oil

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Place 1 tablespoon of olive oil on a baking sheet and place it in the oven while it is preheating. Halve the tomatoes lengthwise, cut out the core from each half. When the oven is hot, remove the baking sheet from the oven and place the tomato halves in the oil, cutside up. Coat the surface of each tomato half with a bit more oil, which will help with browning. Cook for about 15 minutes, then turn the tomatoes over, cut-side down, and continue roasting until the tomato skins begin to darken, crack and pull away from the flesh. Remove from oven and set aside until they’re cool enough to handle.

Pierce the pepper in several places with a sharp knife to avoid bursting, then place it on the baking sheet. Place the pepper under a broiler and broil, turning several times, until it has blackened over most of its surface. Alternatively, you could blacken the pepper over a gas flame on your stove top or on a grill.

Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a heavy-bottomed skillet (you can use a nonstick skillet, but it won’t impart quite as much toasted flavor to the bread) and fry the bread until golden brown and crisp on both sides. Remove from skillet and let cool.

Pluck the skin from the cooled tomatoes, reserving the juices.

Place the flesh and juice in the food processor. Peel, core and seed the pepper, reserving the juice. Place the flesh and juice in the food processor. Add the bread, toasted hazelnuts, garlic, red pepper flakes, paprika, ground chipotle chili pepper, salt and black pepper.

Process until smooth (it will have a somewhat grainy appearance because of the nuts). With the machine running, add the vinegar.

Let the motor run for a moment, then stop it and scrape down the sides of the bowl. Turn the motor back on, and add the ½ cup of extra-virgin olive oil in a slow, steady, very thin stream. The sauce will thicken slightly and hold together in a rich, rusty-colored orange/ red. If the sauce seems too thick (it should have a soft pesto consistency), then with the machine running, drizzle in some hot water.

Taste and make sure the sauce has plenty of piquancy and enough salt. If desired, with the machine running, add additional vinegar and salt. Romesco sauce can be prepared and refrigerated for at least a week (I’ve even used batches of it at the end of two weeks).

Bring to room temperature before using.

Note on roasted red peppers: If you want to trim a bit of labor from the project, you could use a store-bought roasted and peeled red pepper if you determine the quality is recipe-worthy. I’ve used them and been satisfied with the results. Tassos (tassos.com) makes delicious fire-roasted Florinas Peppers. They come packed in a lovely oval-shaped jar and are in a light vinegar solution that contributes to the flavor of the sauce.

Note on roasting hazelnuts: Place hazelnuts on a baking sheet and roast in a 350-degree oven just until the skins begin to crack and the nuts begin to turn golden and give off a nutty aroma, about 20 minutes. Remove from oven, let cool, then pour the nuts into a clean towel and rub vigorously to scrape off as much of the papery skin as possible (you won’t be able to remove it all, some skins are quite stubborn!).

More uses for your romesco sauce: Serve over grilled lamb, fish and vegetables, or in a bowl alongside bread and roasted spring onions. Also delicious as a sandwich spread or a dipping sauce for asparagus. Stir it into seafood stews and vegetable soups.

Your basic romesco ingredients

Roma tomato

Follow the senses to up your game

Stir-fry, the Italian method Stir-fries are great, easy suppers, but the cooking method often calls for a fair amount of oil.

When I make them, I feel compelled to make the dish taste as if it came from a Chinese restaurant, which gives me permission to overload on salty and sweet additions.

To get around that and maintain clean Asian flavors, I’ve borrowed an Italian method for cooking scaloppine (thinly sliced cutlets).

Instead of flour, onion and garlic, I use cornstarch, ginger and scallions, along with minimal amounts of soy sauce and sesame oil.

You will need a large nonstick skillet. Starting the cornstarchcovered chicken in a conventional pan just makes a mess.

Chicago Tribune

Before you slice into a tomato, chop an onion, pull out a skillet — before you even turn on the stove — turn on your senses.

Your ability to use all your senses — to see, hear, smell, feel and taste — may be the simplest way to up your culinary cred.

“To ignore that is to deprive yourself of some of the natural, most basic pleasures of the craft,” said Lauren Braun Costello, New York-based chefstylist and cookbook author during a phone chat. Most important, she said, learn to taste.

“You peel a carrot. It feels firm, and you say OK, it’s crunchy. You bite into it, and it’s not that sweet, it’s not that full of flavor or it has an odd texture. You’re tasting before you start cooking,” said Costello, who has written “Notes on Cooking” and “The Competent Cook.” “You’re a conductor and you’ve got all these musical instruments, and you’re going to create a melody. You have to really taste and see and feel and touch and smell how all that is coming together.”

For Marcus Samuelsson, chef at restaurants Aquavit, in New York, and C-House, in Chicago, that might mean incorporating vinegar or lime juice into a savory sauce to brighten its flavor.

For Thomas Keller, chef at Napa Valley restaurants French Laundry and Ad Hoc, that might mean getting comfortable with touching food.

“I’ve found a lot of people are afraid to touch food,” he writes in “Ad Hoc at Home.” “Touching food is good. It ... gives you results impossible to achieve when you’re using long metal utensils.”

More tips • Season as you go: “Season meat before you brown it.

Season meat as it comes off the heat. Season the meat as you slice it,” Costello said.

• Season correctly: “When you season food ... whether the food is raw or cooked, always season from high above the food to ensure even distribution,” writes Keller.

• Sweet, too: In “New American Table,” Samuelsson mixes Dijon mustard, maple syrup, lime juice and olive oil for brushing on grilled tuna. For salmon, a similar sauce uses honey instead of syrup. Balsamic vinegar adds its sweetness to a toasted sesame oil, olive oil and lime juice mix he splashes on grilled chicken.

• Balance a plate: “The contrast and repetition of shapes, colors, textures and sizes provide a powerful form of culinary communication,” Costello writes.

“You have to really taste and see and feel and touch and smell how (everything) is coming together,” says Lauren Braun Costello, a New York-based chef and cookbook author.

CRISPY BRAISED CHICKEN THIGHS A one-pot dish adapted from chef Thomas Keller’s “Ad Hoc at Home.” Makes 6 servings.

12 chicken thighs 1 tsp kosher salt ¼ C canola oil 1 C coarsely chopped onion 1 TBS finely chopped garlic 3 lg fennel bulbs, trimmed, cored, cut into 2- by ½-inch batons (about 3 C)

¼ C dry white wine 1 C large green olives ¼ tsp red pepper flakes 4 fresh or 2 dried bay leaves 4 strips lemon zest 8 sprigs thyme 1 C chicken stock ¼ C flat-leaf parsley leaves

Heat oven to 375 degrees. Season the chicken thighs on both sides with the salt. Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the thighs, skin side down, in batches if necessary, until brown, about 6 minutes per batch. Turn the thighs over; cook 1 minute. Transfer to cooling rack set in a baking sheet. (Add more oil to skillet if needed to cook second batch.)

Reduce the heat to medium low; add the onion. Cook 1½ minutes. Add the garlic; cook 1 minute. Cook, stirring often, until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the fennel; turn the heat up to medium. Cook, stirring often, until the fennel is crisp-tender, about 10 minutes.

Pour in wine; simmer 2 minutes. Stir in the olives, red pepper flakes, bay leaves, lemon zest, thyme and chicken stock. Heat to a simmer; cook until the fennel is tender, about 1 minute.

Taste the stock; season with salt as needed. Return the chicken to the skillet, skin side up, in a single layer (if your skillet is not large enough, use a roasting pan). When the liquid returns to a simmer, transfer to the oven; cook until the chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes. Turn on the broiler; put the pan under the broiler to crisp and brown the chicken skin, about 2 minutes. Transfer to serving platter; garnish with parsley.

TURKEY MEATLOAF WITH TOMATO-SPINACH SAUCE Adapted from chef Marcus Samuelsson’s “New American Table.” Makes 4 to 6 servings. ¾ C water 1½ tsp salt ¾ C uncooked semolina couscous 3 TBS olive oil 1 red onion, chopped

8 tomatoes or 1 can (28 oz) crushed tomatoes 1 green pepper, chopped 4 cloves garlic, minced 1 tsp mild chili powder 1 tsp thyme leaves

1 lg egg 1 lb ground turkey Freshly ground pepper 2 C baby spinach 4 basil leaves, torn in small pieces

Heat water and ½ teaspoon of salt to a boil in a medium saucepan; turn off the heat. Add the couscous; cover and let sit 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion; cook until translucent, about 3 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes, bell pepper, garlic, chili powder and thyme; simmer until the tomatoes are broken down and softened to a sauce, about 25 minutes.

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Remove 1 cup of the tomato sauce; let it cool. Let the rest of the tomato sauce continue to simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally, about 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, combine the 1 cup tomato sauce with couscous, egg and turkey. Season with ½ teaspoon of the salt and pepper to taste. Shape the mixture into a loaf. Arrange the loaf on a parchment-lined sheet pan; bake 1 hour.

Five minutes before the meatloaf is ready, reheat the tomato sauce. Fold the spinach and basil into the sauce. Season with remaining ½ teaspoon of the salt and pepper to taste. Serve the sauce with the meatloaf.

5 to 6 tsp olive oil, or as needed 1 ⁄4 C plus 1 TBS cornstarch, or more as needed 1 to 11⁄4 lbs thinly sliced chicken cutlets (enough for 2 to 3 slices per serving; see note below) 4-inch piece peeled ginger root, grated or minced (about 3 TBS), or more to taste 5 to 6 scallions, white and light-green parts, chopped (1⁄3 C) 1 TBS toasted sesame oil, or more to taste 2 TBS low-sodium soy sauce, or more to taste 2 C low-sodium or homemade chicken broth 8 oz fresh or frozen snow peas, stringed 2 TBS water, or more as needed Heat 2 teaspoons of the olive oil in a large, nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.

Meanwhile, spread the 1⁄4 cup of cornstarch on a large plate.

Use it to lightly coat the chicken cutlets on both sides, shaking off any excess. Add the cutlets to the skillet, working in batches as needed to avoid crowding them; add a teaspoon of oil for each batch or as needed. Cook for a minute or two, until lightly browned, then turn them over and cook until lightly browned in spots on the second side; the chicken will not be cooked through. Transfer to a clean plate.

Add a teaspoon of the olive oil to the skillet, then add the ginger and scallions. Cook for 1 minute, then add the sesame oil, soy sauce and broth; mix well.

Add the snow peas and cover, reducing the heat to medium or medium-low so the liquid is barely bubbling at the edges.

Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, until the snow peas are just tender.

Uncover and return the chicken cutlets to the skillet.

Combine the remaining tablespoon of cornstarch and the water in a small cup, then add to the skillet and stir until incorporated. Once the liquid starts to bubble at the edges again, partially cover and cook for about 5 minutes, until a sauce forms and the chicken is cooked through. If the sauce is too thin, make a second batch of the cornstarch-water mixture and add in increments, stirring to reach the desired consistency.

Taste, and add sesame oil and/ or soy sauce as needed.

To serve, arrange 2 to 3 overlapped cutlets on each plate.

Top with snow peas and sauce; serve hot.

Note: If you can’t find thinly sliced chicken cutlets, place boneless, skinless chicken breasts between 2 pieces of plastic wrap and pound to a thickness of 1⁄4-inch or less.

Next week: Gutters Don’t forget to clean ’em ... and safely.

COVER STORY LEFT: The Mauls’ kitchen includes a very large refrigerator, but David Maul says the appliance only costs $37 a year to operate.

BELOW: The countertop on the kitchen island is made of Brazilian petrified streambed. “This is a geologist’s dream,” Maul said.

Photos by Ryan Brennecke / The Bulletin

David Maul describes how a ground source heat pump and solar hot water panels help reduce energy costs for his home.

“We have (a lot) of sunshine in Bend every year, so we wanted to take advantage of that and bring in as much natural light as we could into this home.”

Maul Continued from F1 The nationally recognized LEED certification is the accepted benchmark for design, construction and operation of high-performance green homes and buildings. LEED ratings look at water efficiency, energy and atmosphere, materials and resources, indoor environmental quality and innovative design.

Getting the highest rating didn’t mean sacrificing beauty in design or landscaping, despite the large size of the home.

It did mean a lot of thoughtful planning, and since the Mauls bought their property 16 years ago, they had plenty of time to decide what they wanted and needed, and would eventually implement, in their new home.

— David Maul

Melding designs Barbara Maul wanted a home that showcased the Northwest style of home building, and David wanted an Asian-inspired design.

They were able to harmoniously meld the two styles into an architectural look not often seen in Central Oregon.

The Asian influence can be seen from the outside. The front entry of the home has an overhead wooden beam with a soft, curved form. And the eye-catching custom French doors have a copper powder-coated design that forms a circle when the doors are shut.

Clear transom windows surround the grand Asian-inspired entry.

The black slate entryway from the outside is carried inside, giving continuity to the space from the entrance all the way through to the other side of the home.

“We wanted people to be able to see the outdoors from the entry all the way through to other side of the home,” Maul said. “The outside theme is carried indoors.”

While the view of the outside is beautiful, it wasn’t the main reason for situating this home in a westerly direction.

“We have (a lot) of sunshine in Bend every year, so we wanted to take advantage of that and bring in as much natural light as we could into this home,” he said.

“Having nine months of the year with sunny days, we can also use solar water panels.”

Upon entering the 4,316-squarefoot home, the first thing you’ll notice, other than the skyline view, is a small, round pool with a black granite waterfall. On the black granite, Maul had a local artist etch the silhouette of the Three Sisters as a backdrop to the cascading water that flows over it.

“I saw a fountain similar to this in a restaurant in Japan, and I always wanted a water feature indoors,” said Maul, who finds the sound of water soothing.

But there’s more to this fountain than just the aesthetic quality; Maul also incorporated misters on the side of this small pool to allow for year-round humidification.

“This humidifier puts about 50 percent more humidification into the air inside, and keeps all the wood inside in good shape,” said Maul, who has bamboo wooden floors in the majority of his home. “It helps keep the

A granite fountain, with the Three Sisters etched into it, provides atmosphere and humidity for the home.

The water feature is not chemically treated, but Maul installed hidden ultraviolet light tubes inside the fountain, which purifies and sterilizes the circulating water.

Walking from the entryway into a living room with vaulted ceilings, Maul points out the Asianinspired, copper-framed fireplace.

Takara boutique in NorthWest Crossing helped the Mauls with some of the interior decorating, bringing in simple Japanese influences and subtle, modern designs into the clean spaces.

Maul points to the backyard from the living room’s large windows and gestures to his outdoor water feature, which also serves a dual purpose. “All my rain gutters capture the rain and drain it through a fabric filter, which allows me to capture that water, which then runs through plastic pipes — the water is gravity-fed into a 1,600-gallon water cistern underneath this fountain,” he said. “I’m able to use rainwater for the landscaping outside.”

He then says he doesn’t need too much water for landscaping, as the outdoors is xeriscaped with almost 100 percent native

plants that need little watering or maintenance.

“We used native bunch grasses all around so we wouldn’t need to have a lawn, but we did have to water more than normal last summer, as we needed the plants to get established,” said Maul, almost apologetically. “We won’t need to water as much this summer. All the plants are naturally drought-resistant.”

Heating and cooling While still looking out through the living room windows, Maul explains what he thinks is the greatest feature in his home.

“Out there I had a water well driller drill five 200-foot wells about 4 inches in circumference, and we put in pipes and linked these five wells together, which provides my heating and cooling.

It’s geothermal heating and cooling,” he said. “It’s really an old technology, but new for this area.

It’s ground source heat pumps — geothermal. If you drill just 3 feet below ground, it’s always a constant 53 degrees, it’s so energy efficient.”

So it’s no surprise that Maul’s favorite room in his entire four-

bedroom home is the “brains” of the house. He heads to a small utility room in the garage, where the mechanical system is housed, controlling the zoned and sub-metered interior of the home. This allows different areas of the home to be individually controlled and monitored for temperature.

“I call it the thermos building ... approach,” said Maul, breaking down some of the complicated engineering feats of this home into their simplest form. “This house is an insulated building shell, and we’ve made it highly energy efficient.”

Kitchen design While David Maul had his say on building his geothermal heating and cooling wells, Barbara Maul knew what she wanted in design.

“My favorite room is the kitchen,” she said. “It has an open design, which I love because I like to cook and entertain, and I don’t have to be stuck in an enclosed kitchen area. The open space allows us to cook together; we can all be in the same spot and participate in the meal.”

David Maul is more likely to extol the benefits of the kitchen’s 6-watt LED lights that allow the Mauls to reduce the usual wattage by 90 percent for the same amount of light output. In fact, he says the LED lights work so well, he had to install a dimmer switch.

Barbara Maul spent years searching for the right countertops in the kitchen.

The breakfast bar area and the kitchen island have a surface of petrified streambed, which contains an assortment of naturally inlaid rocks.

“This is a geologist’s dream,” said David Maul, running his hand along the smooth and ancient polished streambed that is now his countertop.

“It took years to find this; it came originally from Brazil, but we found it from (now defunct) Austin Tile store in Bend,” said Barbara Maul, who also used lowluster black Cambrian granite for some of her countertops.

The Mauls used all Energy Star-rated appliances in their home. And though their doubledoor, stainless steel refrigerator looks huge, it uses very little energy.

“It only costs me about $37 a year to run,” said David Maul.

“It has a lot of insulation, and its compressors are located on top of the refrigerator, making it highly efficient.”

Glass tiles, with an almost matted metal sheen, finish off the backsplash areas.

Bathrooms and more Walking out of the kitchen, Maul slides the pocket Japanese shoji screen doors to reveal the simple, formal dining room.

Another favorite room is just off the dining room; it’s his special reserve, 1,000-bottle wine room.

“It’s passively temperature controlled,” said Maul. “This summer I’ll incorporate a fan to bring air in from the basement.”

As we walk past the kitchen and dining room, Maul points to the large windows, which are all treated with a special UV-blocking layer. He also says he installed an automated screen for these west-facing windows, which are timed for both winter and summer seasons.

“In the summer, the screens come down and serve as a triple pane to the windows, which keeps the summer heat out,” said Maul, who moved into his home in July.

“I never ran the air conditioner all summer. On the hottest days, it was still just 72 degrees in here.”

Just past the living room, Maul walks into the master bedroom, artfully decorated in restrained, Japanese style. The master bathroom is where Maul had a tankless water heater installed.

Because the usual water heater would be more than 60 feet away from this bathroom, it would take several minutes to get the water warm coming through the pipes.

“With the tankless water heater, I can get hot water in 15 seconds, which saves water,” said Maul.

“We do have two thermal solar water heaters, which take care of 80 percent of our needs.”

All of the bathrooms in the house have low-flow faucets and dual-flush toilets, which use less water for liquid waste than for solid waste.

Stepping out of the master bedroom, we head back toward the entryway and off to the side, where an eye-catching circular, floating staircase made of black metal and bamboo ascends to the upper floor.

At the top of the stairs is a bridge area that looks out over the living room on one side, and the entryway on the other side. Crossing the bridge, we enter the other half of the house. Maul opens the frosted door across the bridge that leads to the comfortable family room and another small kitchen bar area.

“By just installing a door here and a window across the bridge to this area, we can control temperatures, and it costs almost nothing,” Maul said.

From the family room, the Mauls enjoy full mountain views.

Down the hallway are two bedrooms and an office, which can also be used as a spare bedroom for visiting grown children, with a Murphy bed that easily pulls out of a wall cabinet.

A guest bathroom is also a showroom for a countertop made from rainforest marble, which has antique red tones marbled with white, gold and black veins.

Looking out from the bridge in the house, Maul touts the advantages of building green: “My investment for energy efficiency looks good, too. Basically, it will pay for itself, and it will be money in the pocket.”

David cites the federal and state tax credits homeowners can receive by building green and by installing more energy-efficient appliances, too.

“My January utility bill was $138 for electric and $19 for gas,” Maul said proudly.

Next week: Seed starting Time to organize and plan your planting.

Cool and collected, old seeds will fare better in the fridge

COVER STORY

Grass Continued from F1 “Because of all the microclimates, you can’t really make a blanket statement about the best way to get your lawn to green up,” says Linda Stephenson, owner of L&S Gardens in La Pine. “Really, it all starts with what seed you used in the lawn.”

Grass is not simply just grass.

People grow many different types of grasses in their lawns, and these have different growing requirements.

“In Central Oregon, the proper grass seed mixture is one-third Kentucky bluegrass; one-third turf-type rye and one-third fescue,” Stephenson said. “A lot of people like bluegrass just by itself, but it is prone to snow mold,” or damage from sustained snow cover.

Shady areas are notorious obstacles to green grass. Among cool-season grasses, fescues are the most tolerant of shade. Lawn areas with heavy traffic require a tough grass, and Kentucky bluegrass and perennial rye will work best there.

As soon as the ground is warmed up and free of snow in the spring, Stephenson said, you can get started.

“Get your lawn raked up, and all the pine needles and leaves removed,” she said. “You should have already changed the oil and sharpened the blade on your mower.”

After the lawn is raked, then mow it.

“You’re doing a kind of vacuum with the lawn mower,” Stephenson said. “Whatever you missed can be chopped up or bagged.”

If the lawn needs aerating or thatching, consider how to prevent possible contamination.

“If you borrow or rent a lawn machine, such as a thatcher or aerator, be careful,” Stephenson advises. “People who de-thatch

system depends on the weather, Stephenson said.

“That’s a hard call around here — we’ve gotten snow on April 1,” she said. “In general, when we start getting consistent heat, then turn on the water.”

While lawn care in Central Oregon can be challenging, these tips can get you started toward the lush, green lawn that is the envy of all the neighbors.

The results contained few real surprises: Seeds that had been kept in the fridge survived, more or less, while those left elsewhere did poorly. Seeds need warm temperatures and moisture to germinate, but first they also need cool temperatures and some humidity to remain in a viable dormant state. Behold the crisper.

Here were some of my shed duds: turnips from 2004, 0 percent germination; carrots from 2004, 0 percent; rutabagas from 2007, 0 percent; that arugula, 15 percent germination.

For seeds in the fridge, the results were: tomatoes from 2007, 100 percent germination; cantaloupes from 2002, 35 percent germination; spinach from 2007, 80 percent.

The one pleasant surprise is that beet seeds and their very close relative, Swiss chard, seem to survive the rank neglect of the shed shelf, possibly because their seeds are formed and protected in enclosed clusters. Thirteen of the 20 chard seeds, dating to 2005, germinated. Sixteen of the beet seeds sprang to life, though they had been purchased in 2004.

I’ve got the message: Fridge good, shed bad. My own experiment has at least allowed me to throw out seed I now know to be poor, and that itself is a step toward liberation for a seed hog.

This winter, I’ve bought all manner of fresh new seed, and yes, the unused portion has been dutifully wrapped, noted and placed in the cosseting chill of a modern icebox.

Mona Lavender’s flowers partner well with hot-pink blooms from hydrangeas or, in this garden, the bright pink impatiens.

With seed prices creeping up each year, no doubt because of the back-to-thegarden movement and the ensuing demand for seed, it seemed logical to see if any of this germ was still viable, and if the method of storage made a difference.

I have old catalogs (that pack rat again) and could see, for example, that over the past two years the price of tomato

What will survive

SEEDS

As I got out of the car for the garden tour, there it was: Mona Lavender. I could recognize that electrifying lavender blue anywhere. Actually, as I looked beyond, I could see that the gardener had used the plant in several locations, giving a spiky eye-catching interest to her combinations.

Mona Lavender leaped onto the scene about five years ago, winning awards and the admiration of gardeners who gave it a try.

Unfortunately, it is not used nearly enough, and there are very plants that offer this color for the morning sun/afternoon shade situation.

Mona Lavender also has another problem. Botanically speaking, it is a plectranthus, a word certainly lacking the name recognition of say the petunia or marigold. In fact, tell a child the name, and he or she is most likely to associate the weird-sounding name with some sort of dinosaur.

Gardeners who really get out and dig in the dirt recognize the name as being from the genus that gives us plants like Swedish Ivy, Mexican Mint and Creeping Charlie. Except this time it’s the flowers we are raving about, although the foliage is striking, too.

Mona Lavender is a hybrid developed at the famous Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens in South Africa, and it performs exceptionally well as a perennial in warm zones 9-11 and as a terrific annual in colder locations, blooming from spring through fall. The small, bushy plant has dark-green foliage with hints of purple. The undersides of the leaves are dark purple.

The plant reaches about 2 feet

der mite issues, in the years I have grown it, there have been virtually no insect or disease pressures.

Mona Lavender is an exceptional performer as a border plant and is equally impressive in mixed containers. Feed your plants every four to six weeks with a light application of a slow-release fertilizer. In containers, feed with a diluted water-soluble fertilizer or controlled-released granules.

Mona Lavender also works in any style of garden. Its habit lends it to grandma’s cottage garden, and is simply unbeatable in woodland gardens where you might partner them with hydrangeas, ferns and hostas. The garden where I saw them on tour featured them with pink impatiens, which was an ideal combination.

Being a tropical nut, we used them in our trials with lime green Joseph’s Coats and bananas for a Caribbean look. The tall bananas produced just the right amount of shade protection from the hot afternoon sun. The Joseph’s Coats contrasted nicely with both the lavender flower spikes and the purple-tinted leaves.

When you visit your garden center this spring, your choices may seem a little overwhelming, but Mona Lavender plectranthus is a must-try for your shady area.

You’ll also find that there really are a lot of enticing companions.

their yards usually have a problem. If you don’t clean the blades on the machine before using it, you may bring in a disease or mold from another yard.”

POTTERY

As soon as the green starts to show on the shafts of the grass, it’s time for the first application of fertilizer.

“Fertilizer is like your lawn taking a vitamin,” Stephenson said.

“It has to be balanced, and you have to read the bag and know what it does.”

The first fertilizer should be a 12-12-12 or 16-16-16, Stephenson said. The first number refers to nitrogen, the second to phosphorus and the third to potassium; the nitrogen is what causes rapid greening, she said. Don’t water immediately.

“Most fertilizer is heat-released,” Stephenson said. “Watering won’t help.”

Stephenson also advises against using a “weed and feed”

Locked in a seed the size of a speck is all the mystery of the universe. Unless it is locked in a shed.

Then, one discovers, the seed is no more a miraculous and latent life force but a grain that is dead for all time. Or as any caveman will tell you, “Fridge good, shed bad.”

If you are a vegetable gardener and a pack rat, as I am, you will find half-used packets of seed all over the place and dating back years. Seed pouches turn up in the pockets of an old coat, in drawers of the bedroom dresser, in the recesses of a gardening bag stored in the shed and on the pegboard behind the workbench.

Like a bookworm who cannot part with the least valuable book, no matter how bad or old, I am faced at every turn with old seed packets, reminders of years when my winter ambitions were bigger than my spring real estate. Mostly, they were packets that had been opened with great anticipation, but now contained the leftover seeds in muddied pouches. Recalling the excitement of first receiving them was nowhere near as great as the actual excitement of first receiving them.

The whole point of a seed, after all, is to look forward, not back. Nowhere was this rift more pronounced than in a monster packet of arugula seed that I bought six years ago. I don’t know why, but I purchased a quarter-pound of arugula seed. That’s 60,000 seeds, enough to plant a row almost half a mile long. Or enough to sit forgotten in a canvas bag for years.

seeds was up 11 percent, carrot 12 percent, bean 10 percent and my favorite pumpkin, a squat red thing called Cinderella, 20 percent.

I took the old arugula and 17 other seed packets, and put their contents to the basic germination test: Using a given number of seeds (I chose 20 of each), I wrapped them in moist paper towels, placed them in opened plastic bags and set them aside at room temperature.

By Kathleen Purvis McClatchy-Tribune News Service

I’m cutting back on red meat and pork.

Which vegetables are high in protein?

Getting enough protein in your diet from nonmeat sources isn’t difficult as long as you eat a varied diet.

Almost all vegetables, beans, grains, nuts and seeds have some protein, although the amount varies widely. Generally, most Americans get about 15 percent of their calories from protein. For someone who eats 2,000 calories a day, that would be about 75 grams.

Soybeans, of course, are very high in protein. A cup of cooked soybeans has as much as 29 grams, while the green soybean called edamame has about 22 grams.

Beans of all kinds are great sources of protein. A cup of cooked kidney beans would have about 13 grams.

Most green vegetables have some protein, although in much smaller amounts than powerhouses like beans and whole grains. A cup of cooked spinach has about 5 grams, while a cup of cooked, chopped broccoli has about 4 grams.

Q: A:

Anna Williams / Martha Stewart Living

By following a few key steps, you can ensure that your patio will last for years to come.

10 seeds (of the same type) on a moist paper towel, and fold up the towel, encasing the seeds. Transfer to a resealable plastic bag, label the bag with the seed type and date, and place in a warm

spot. Wait a few days, then check to see how many have sprouted.

More than 70 percent, or seven out of 10 seeds, means the seeds are still viable. If the results are between 40 and 70 percent, sow

the seeds thickly. If less than 40 percent of the seeds germinate, it’s time to buy new seeds. Seeds will last longer if stored properly.

Always keep them in a cool, dry, dark place.
