Most of what’s $18M in debt, filing bankruptcy left of Epic Air Local commercial mogul’s restructuring will have ripple effects to stay in Bend By Cindy Powers The Bulletin

Its former customers will share marketing rights to the LT model with a Chinese company, but there’s still a dispute over the rent

A once controversial area businessman who owns about $6 million in real estate throughout Central Oregon has filed for

bankruptcy in a case that involves “one of the largest” Deschutes County property tax delinquencies in recent memory. Federal court documents show Patrick Gisler has about $18 mil-

lion in outstanding debt including loans for commercial properties in downtown Bend and Tumalo. In the documents, Gisler also lists about $8 million in assets. Gisler’s petition was originally

NEWLY HATCHED, BUT TOO LATE FOR EASTER

By Nick Budnick The Bulletin

PORTLAND — Bankrupt Bend aircraft maker Epic Air will fly again — or at least the vestiges of the company will, under new ownership. A group of former customers of the kit airplane maker, located at Bend Municipal Airport, emerged from a bankruptcy hearing Tuesday with control of the company after initially being ranked third of three suitors. Following the hearing, its leaders vowed to continue building airplanes in Bend. “We did it,” said Daryl Ingalsbe, flashing a grin and a thumbs-up. Ingalsbe and Doug King had joined with other former customers in an effort to keep the company building its “Epic LT” kit model in Bend, only to be outbid by a Kansas firm as well as a Chinese government-owned company, both of which initially proposed to move Epic’s assets with them. Last week, however, federal bankruptcy judge Randall Dunn required that the highest bidder, a Beijing subsidiary of Aviation Industry Corp. of China, cut a deal with the customers’ group, called LT Builders Group.

With forecasts calling for even more snow in the Central Cascades through early next week, the Oregon Department of Transportation announced Wednesday it would extend the studded tire deadline again, now until April 17, to help drivers deal with potentially difficult conditions. But the extra snow and cold weather is welcome to irrigators Inside and conservationists. • A snapshot “I always like to call the snowof the pack ‘white gold,’” said Steve snowpack, Johnson, director of the Central Page A6 Oregon Irrigation District. “What that represents is the flow in the rivers in the summer.” The snowpack jumped from its low of 57 percent of average on March 25 to 76 percent as of Wednesday morning — a welcome improvement, said Kyle Gorman, region manager with the Oregon Water Resources Department. “We’re making pretty good progress. It just builds our water supply up to a much better picture to what it was two weeks ago.” See Show / A6

A gosling soaks up the afternoon sun Wednesday from the edge of its nest in southwest Bend after recently hatching. Canada geese usually begin nesting from late March to early May, according to the Wild Goose Chase bird management service based in the Midwest. A female goose will incubate her eggs until they hatch, about 28 days after laying. During the nesting and incubation period, the male stays near the nest and keeps a close eye on the female and the eggs. Goslings usually stay with their parents for a full year after they hatch. Geese have nested in this location, atop a boulder near The Bulletin building, for years.

SANTIAGO, Chile — As the Easter earthquake shook Southern California, the state’s disaster management chief was thousands of miles away in Chile, examining what experts say is the best case study yet for how a truly catastrophic earthquake could impact the United States. Chile and America’s Pacific coast have more in common than their geology; they share advanced construction codes, bustling coastal cities, modern skyscrapers and veteran emergency services. These were all put to the test in Chile, which, despite extensive planning, lost 432 lives in the 8.8-magnitude earthquake and resulting tsunami — lessons that California, Oregon and Washington have yet to fully learn despite experience with lesser quakes. They include: Coastal flood maps mean nothing without local enforcement. Hospitals need to not only stay upright but also stay open. Stringent building standards require stringent inspections. And tourists need to be taught about the dangers of tsunamis, which caused the greatest loss of life in Chile, wiping out seaside campgrounds on the last weekend of summer vacation. See Quakes / A5

A tattered American flag taped to a van’s antenna at the Whiting, Ind., home of a suspected Hutaree militia associate. The Michigan-based group is accused of planning attacks to spark an uprising against the U.S. government.

DENVER — Even in the extreme world of the militia movement, the Hutaree — eight men and one woman in southeastern Michigan accused of plotting to kill police to foment a revolution — stood out. They trained with other survivalist groups and attended at least one militia conference in Kentucky, according to court papers filed by federal prosecutors. But their neighbors in the militia movement were suspicious of the Hutaree’s Christian ideology and obsession with a coming apocalypse. “It’s just sad,” said Lee Miracle of the Southeast Michigan Volunteer Militia, which included some of the men who later joined the Hutaree. “They kind of drifted away and ended up more with a kind of cultlike group.” To experts who follow militias, the existence of the Hutaree — and the cool reaction it generally received from other militia groups — are reminders that the movement is far from monolithic.

New school lunch bill Concerns for Texas focuses on nutrition textbook changes By Kristen Wyatt Associated Press Writer

THORNTON, Colo. — A school food crackdown looming in Congress that aims to reduce childhood obesity went over like a wet potato chip at a suburban Denver elementary school where federal agriculture officials pitched the plan Tuesday. Under a bill pending in the

Senate, more schools could be taking treats away from pupils, or at least making them healthier under tighter national nutrition standards. The bill would add $4.5 billion over the next decade for school meals for poor students. The measure also gives schools grants to help them buy local produce. Under the change, the Agri-

culture Department could create new standards for all foods in schools, including vending machine items. For example, federal authorities could deem that school pizzas be made with whole-wheat crusts. The bill would ban canned fruit in heavy syrup and tuna packed in oil. Also off-limits — sweetened apple sauce.

Coed dorms in a ‘post-gender world’ Universities rooming men, women with new options By Larry Gordon Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — They weren’t looking to make a political statement or to be pioneers of gender liberation. Each just wanted a familiar, decent roommate rather than a stranger after their original roommates left to study abroad. That’s how Pitzer College sophomores Kayla Eland, female, and Lindon Pronto, male, began sharing a room this semester on Holden Hall’s second floor. They are not a couple and neither is gay. They are just compatible roommates in a new, sometimes controversial, dormitory option known as gender-neutral housing that is gaining support at some colleges across the nation. Eland, a biology major who hopes to become a doctor, said that a roommate’s personality and study habits are more important than gender. “This might not be right for everyone,” she said of sharing the small, cinder blockwalled room with a man. “But I think it’s important to have the right to choose where you want to live, how you want to live and who you want to live with.” Pronto, an environmental studies major who works each summer as a forest firefighter, agreed. Apart from remembering to lower the toilet seat, he said, living with a woman friend is not much different from rooming with a man. “As far as I’m concerned, a roommate is a roommate,” he said. Although the number of participants remains small, gender-neutral housing has gained attention as the final step in the integration of student housing. In the 1970s, many U.S. colleges moved from having only single-sex dormitories to providing coed residence halls, with male

and female students typically housed on alternating floors or wings. Then came coed hallways and bathrooms, further shocking traditionalists. Now, some colleges allow undergraduates of opposite sexes to share a room. Pitzer, which began its program in the fall of 2008, is among about 50 U.S. schools with the housing choice, according to Jeffrey Chang, who co-founded the National Student Genderblind Campaign in 2006 to encourage gender-mixed rooms. Participating schools include UC Berkeley, Stanford, Cornell, Dartmouth and the University of Michigan.

Oregon schools Both Oregon State University and University of Oregon are among the state’s schools that provide gender-neutral housing, according to www.kdrv.com. College officials say the movement began mainly as a way to accommodate gay, bisexual and transgender students who may feel more comfortable living with a member of the opposite sex. Most schools say they discourage couples from participating, citing emotional and logistical problems of breakups. Officials say most heterosexuals in the

programs are platonic friends. “College students are adults,” said Chang, who is gay and is now a law student at Rutgers University in New Jersey. “They have every single right to choose the person they feel most comfortable living with.” He estimates that at schools where the option exists, only 1 percent to 3 percent of students living on campus choose a roommate of the opposite sex. Officials at the Association of College & University Housing Officers-International say the trend has accelerated, but they don’t expect most schools to adopt it. Experts note that most students prefer a same-sex roommate, and some colleges are reluctant to antagonize parents, legislators and donors who view the option as immoral or even dangerous. Harvey Mudd College, next to Pitzer in the Claremont Colleges, began gender-neutral housing last fall mainly as an option for gay and transgender students, said Guy Gerbick, dean of residential life. Parents cannot veto such a decision at Harvey Mudd, but Gerbick asks students to discuss it with their families ahead of time. He also asks applicants whether they are romantically involved. If they were, the school could not forbid them from rooming together. “If we are going into a postgender world, then the regulation of private behavior is just not practical,” he said.

may be unnecessary By Richard Fausset Los Angeles Times

ATLANTA — When Texas’ conservative-leaning Board of Education voted for new social studies standards this month, parents, teachers and lawmakers far beyond the Lone Star state — particularly the liberal ones — took notice. With the changes, Texas’ curriculum is likely to de-emphasize the concept in U.S. history of separating church and state, and the influence of Thomas Jefferson on 18th century world history. It would also cast a positive light on conservatives, such as Phyllis Schlafly and the late Sen. Joseph McCarthy. Concerned observers have warned that those ideas could seep into textbooks throughout the country, because Texas is one of the nation’s largest textbook buyers. In California last week, Democratic state Sen. Leland Yee announced that he was working out the details of legislation that would inoculate California students from the Texas version of history. “While some Texas politicians may want to set their educational standards back 50 years, California should not be subject to their backward curriculum changes,” he said. But it is far from clear that non-Texans will be subjected to the proposed changes, once they are finalized, as expected, in May. Though none of the three major K-12 textbook publishers — Pearson Education Inc., Houghton Mifflin Harcourt and McGraw-Hill — would comment for this article, observers of the $8 billion industry offered differing views on the likelihood that Texas could wield such influence beyond its borders — in part because the textbook business, like American history itself, is a fluid affair influenced by commerce, culture, legislation and technology.

‘Adoption’ states Texas and California are not just the two largest textbook markets in the nation. They are among 20 states that industry insiders refer to as “adoption” states, meaning that they choose which textbooks can be used statewide. The remaining states let local schools and districts essentially choose whatever books they want, so long as the students who read them meet state-mandated standards. Many states did not adopt such standards until they were compelled to by the 1994 Improving America’s Schools Act, a major plank of former President Bill Clinton’s education reform effort. Before 1994, many schools bought largely uniform “national editions” of textbooks, said Jay Diskey, executive di-

“It’s gotten to be an exaggeration, if not an urban legend, about how curriculum in Texas automatically hops state lines.” — Jay Diskey, Association of American Publishers school division executive director rector of the school division for the Association of American Publishers. Back then, he concedes, big states like California and Texas were able to muscle in extra pages in national textbooks on, say, the Gold Rush or the Battle of the Alamo. But since then, Diskey argues, publishers have grown accustomed to regularly printing different textbooks to conform to different states’ needs. The new Texas standards, he said, won’t change that. “It’s gotten to be an exaggeration, if not an urban legend, about how curriculum in Texas automatically hops state lines,” he said.

Computers make changes easier Diskey also notes that the computerization of the publishing industry has made it possible to swap pages and chapters in textbooks to meet differing expectations. Publishers may become even more nimble as digital publishing becomes more widespread, and as educators move closer to the e-book model promised by the iPad and the Kindle. “It’s already happening in the college textbook market,” said Laura Dawson, a New Yorkbased consultant to the publishing industry. “Professors can put together what would amount to a mash-up, where they can mix and match content to create a custom book.” Critics of the current system argue that textbook manufacturers don’t so much offer variety as they do texts crammed with every special request from around the country. They also point to forces that may be limiting market variety. One is the consolidation of the textbook industry. Ten or 15 years ago, there were more than a dozen major players cranking out schoolbooks; now the three largest companies are responsible for about 80 percent of the core K-12 textbook market, Diskey said.

Study: Risky surgeries for back pain raise costs By Carla K. Johnson The Associated Press

B Lethal gases keep rescuers out of mine MONTCOAL, W.Va. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Two full days after the worst U.S. mining disaster in a generation, dangerous gases underground prevented rescuers late Wednesday from venturing into the Upper Big Branch coal mine to search for any survivors of the explosion that killed at least 25 workers. Crews drilled holes deep into the ground to release the gases. By evening, a federal safety official said the levels of lethal carbon monoxide and highly explosive hydrogen and methane measured at the top of the holes were steadily dropping. Officials could not say specifically when rescuers might be able to go in, but if the readings at the bottom were good, they want them on the move as soon as possible.

Busy hurricane season predicted LOS ANGELES â&#x20AC;&#x201D; This could be a big year for hurricanes, with four major storms predicted to hit the Atlantic basin in 2010. According to a forecast released by a team of Colorado State University researchers Wednesday, eight hurricanes could occur this year. Four of them could have winds exceeding 110 mph. The average is six per year. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a 69 percent chance a major hurricane will hit the U.S. coastline and a 45 percent chance it will strike the East Coast, including the Florida peninsula. The team also predicted a 58 percent chance of a major storm entering the Caribbean. This is the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s second 2010 forecast. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s now predicting more hurricanes than before because of weakening El NiĂąo conditions combined with higher temperatures. The season, which starts June 1 and typically peaks around Sept. 10, could see a total of 15 named tropical storms. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; From wire reports

Rosa Otunbayeva, a former foreign minister who the opposition leaders said would head the interim government, told the Russian-language Mir TV channel. The opposition has called for the closure of the U.S. air base in Manas outside the capital of Bishkek that is a key transit point for supplies essential to the war in nearby Afghanistan. A senior U.S. military official said Kyrgyzstan officials halted flights for 12 hours on Wednesday at Manas air base. The official, who was not authorized to speak publicly, said the base closed around 8 p.m. local time and was expected to reopen around 8 a.m. Thursday. Other military officials said the suspension was not expected to impact military operations because fewer flights were scheduled during overnight hours. During the day, protesters who were called into the streets by opposition parties stormed government buildings in Bishkek and battled with police amid volleys of tear gas. Groups of elite officers then fired with live ammunition. The Health Ministry said 40 people died and more than 400 were wounded. Opposition activist Toktoim Umetaliyeva said at least 100 people were killed by police gunfire. Crowds of demonstrators took control of the state TV building and looted it, then marched toward

Korea sentences U.S. man to hard labor TOKYO â&#x20AC;&#x201D; An American has been sentenced to eight years of hard labor and fined the equivalent of $700,000 for illegal entry into North Korea.

Two television journalists received 12-year sentences last June, but were allowed to leave the country after former President Bill Clinton flew to Pyongyang. Gomes, a human rights activist, seems likely to be used by North Korea as a bargaining chip, as it negotiates with the United States over the resumption of stalled nuclear disarmament talks.

WASHINGTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; President Barack Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s meeting today in Prague with Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, where theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll sign a new nuclear arms reduction pact, will highlight a thaw in relations between the former Cold War enemies thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s occurred since the U.S. called for the two countries to hit the â&#x20AC;&#x153;reset buttonâ&#x20AC;? just over a year ago. The new Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty is the most visible measure of improving cooperation on an array of fronts, from intelligence sharing to Iran and the war in Afghanistan. Moscow quietly has allowed more than 130 planes carrying U.S. troops to Afghanistan to transit its territory, the first armed Americans ever permitted on Russian soil. Some analysts cautioned

that some thorny issues could stall the warming trend, such as the expansion of U.S. missile defenses in Eastern Europe and Moscowâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s insistence on the primacy of Russian influence over former Soviet republics such as Ukraine and Georgia. Obama will have to balance his outreach to Russia with the concerns of Eastern and Central European NATO allies who remain anxious about their former overlord.

Bomb scare prompted by smoker By Ivan Moreno And Devlin Barrett The Associated Press

DENVER — A Qatari diplomat trying to sneak a smoke in an airplane bathroom sparked a bomb scare Wednesday night on a flight from Washington to Denver, with fighter jets scrambled and law enforcement put on high alert, officials said. No explosives were found on the man, and officials do not believe he was trying to harm any-

one, according to a senior law enforcement officials who spoke on condition of anonymity. An Arab diplomat briefed on the matter identified the diplomat as Mohammed Al-Madadi. Two law enforcement officials said investigators were told the man was asked about the smell of smoke in the bathroom and he made a joke that he had been trying to light his shoes — an apparent reference to the 2001 so-called “shoe bomber”

Richard Reid. The sources asked not to be identified because they were not authorized to discuss the ongoing investigation. Officials said air marshals aboard the flight restrained the man and he was questioned. The plane landed safely as military jets were scrambled. Hours after the plane landed, the man was still being interviewed by investigators, and it was unclear what if any charges

he might face. Jayne Smith, 61, of Laramie, Wyo., said her husband, Scott, was on the United flight and was being interviewed by authorities. Jayne Smith also flew in from Washington, D.C., on Wednesday but on a different flight, and was waiting for her husband at the airport. She said he called her and said he didn’t see anything on the flight because the incident occurred in the first-class section

and he was at the back of the plane. “He just said someone had a temper tantrum,” Jayne Smith said. She said her husband told her that he and the other passengers were being interviewed at a fire station. “He just said there were scads of officers around,” she said. “I’m sure he was rolling his eyes.” Emergency vehicles’ flashing red lights surrounded a fire

station at Denver International Airport, and two buses, apparently carrying passengers from the flight, left the station for an unknown location. Inside the terminal, passengers from other flights picked up their luggage at baggage carriers, apparently unaware of any emergency. The airport remained open during the incident, and spokesman Jeff Green said no flights were delayed or canceled.

Scandal means tough vetting for future pope Accusations of Benedict’s role in cover-ups has church looking for media-savvy leader By Victor L. Simpson The Associated Press

VATICAN CITY — The sex abuse crisis engulfing the Catholic Church will mean more vigorous background checks when it comes to appointing cardinals, and future popes. Among the requirements: no taint of scandal and the ability to speak comfortably to the world and the media. While leading Catholic conservatives have vigorously defended Benedict XVI from accusations that he was complicit in covering up sex abusers, they have also pointed to management failures. As a model for the future pope, the church will need to consider someone “able to talk to the world and the media, not be destroyed by it,” said the Rev. Thomas Reese, a Jesuit priest and senior fellow at the Woodstock Theological Center at Georgetown University. Even as the clerical sex abuse crisis has swept across Europe in recent months — touching even Benedict — the Vatican has responded with the disarray and media ineptitude that’s been symptomatic of the German-born pope’s five-year papacy. The church was rocked by scandal again Wednesday, when

Norwegian officials revealed that a 58-year-old Catholic bishop who resigned last year did so after admitting he molested a child two decades earlier. As churchmen have closed ranks to defend Benedict, even some of his biggest supporters have pointed to the need for change. Leading Catholic conservatives such as George Weigel in the United States and Vittorio Messori in Italy have vigorously defended Benedict from accusations he was involved in covering up sex abusers while serving as archbishop of Munich and later as a Vatican official. But they have both underlined management shortcomings in the papacy, with the Italian noting a “certain naivete.” One test will come when the pope names new cardinals, with Vatican insiders suggesting this will happen in November. The Holy See will need to carry out a vigorous vetting process to try to ensure that none of the new cardinals are tainted by the sex abuse scandal — a potentially monumental task considering the scope of the crisis. When the search begins for a successor to Benedict, Vatican

experts say the need for someone with no skeletons in the closet on abuse might give advantage to cardinals who didn’t head a diocese. In choosing top officials, the church may give preference to a younger generation of conservative clergy, looking beyond the current church leadership that has been so sullied by the scandal. Just this week, Benedict tapped a 58-year-old Mexican-born prelate, Jose Gomez, as the next archbishop of Los Angeles, a post that traditionally gets a red hat. Lost in the drumbeat of accusations and the Vatican’s counterattack have been indications that change is indeed being placed on the agenda for a future pope. The idea that Benedict might step down over the crisis has been roundly dismissed as speculation raised only by those bent on destroying his papacy. Still, Benedict himself seemed to consider the possibility that popes might not serve unlimited terms. With people living longer “one also would consider new norms,” he said in a 2004 interview with an Italian religious affairs magazine, Famiglia Cristiana, a year before his election.

Karzai ousts 2 linked to vote fraud By Laura King Los Angeles Times

KABUL — In an apparent capitulation to international pressure, the government of President Hamid Karzai on Wednesday announced the removal of two top election officials who were implicated in widespread fraud in last summer’s presidential elections. The legal framework for upcoming parliamentary elections has been a key point of contention between Karzai and Western governments. Karzai has resisted demands for what diplomats called “root-and-branch” reform of Afghanistan’s electoral system prior to the parliamentary vote, which is set for September. Word of the electoral shake-up came from Karzai’s spokesman, Waheed Omar, who told reporters in Kabul that Azizullah Ludin, the director of the Indepen-

dent Electoral Commission, had stepped down, together with Daoud Ali Najafi, the commission’s chief electoral advisor. President Several forHamid Karzai eign monitoring groups had accused Ludin and Najafi of abetting massive vote-rigging during August’s balloting. A separate fraud-auditing body stripped Karzai of about one-third of the votes cast for him, throwing the race to a runoff. That second round was averted, however, when the Afghan leader’s main challenger, Abdullah Abdullah, dropped out of the race. Despite its name, the Indepen-

dent Electoral Commission, the main body vote-overseeing body, is appointed by the president. During and after last August’s race, Karzai’s opponents had accused Ludin of favoring Karzai, who had handpicked him. Replacements for the two officials have not yet been named. Arrangements for the parliamentary vote have been an inflammatory topic in recent days, driving a wedge between Karzai and his Western patrons just as NATO is preparing for a massive military offensive in Afghanistan’s south this summer. Escalating discord between Karzai and the Obama administration began last Thursday, when Karzai, addressing election officials, blamed vote fraud on foreign interference and called it part of a Western conspiracy to weaken his government.

WASHINGTON — U.S. companies would lose their ability to secretly finance political advertising run by organizations such as the U.S. Chamber of Commerce under a bill being considered by Democratic lawmakers. The proposed legislation is a response to a Supreme Court ruling that allows corporations to spend unlimited amounts of their own money on political ads. The Jan. 21 decision triggered concern that companies would funnel unprecedented sums of cash into the Chamber’s decades-old system of anonymously funded pro-business campaigns. President Barack Obama criticized the court opinion in his Jan. 28 State of the Union address, saying it would “open the floodgates for special interests.” The bill, which may be introduced as early as next week, would require nonprofit groups, unions and trade associations including the Chamber to identify who pays for ads designed to sway opinion on candidates for federal office. “The Chamber is going to end up with at least one very undesirable element: The public is going to know exactly which corporations are the major funders,” said Craig Holman, who handles campaign finance issues for Public Citizen, a Washington group that supports more regulation of political giving. The nation’s biggest business lobbying group, the Chamber spent $47 million on so-called issue advertising last year, mostly on health care policy, according to Kandar Media’s Campaign Media Analysis Group in Arlington, Va. The Chamber has said it plans to spend $50 million on candidatefocused ads alone this year. An additional $144 million of Chamber spending went for lobbying last year, more than five times that of the secondlargest spender, Exxon Mobil Corp. That spending isn’t affected by the court ruling or proposed legislation. The Chamber had fought

what it called the suppression of company participation in elections, and hailed the Supreme Court decision in the case, Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission. The proposed legislation would gut what appeared to be a victory for the group.

‘Broader regulations’ “Citizens United is being used as a pretext to pursue much broader regulations of the private sector in the political arena,” said Steven Law, the Chamber’s general counsel. “Their interest is to intimidate the business community into unilateral disarmament” while allowing unions to spend millions of dollars, he said. Should Congress fail to act, “the vast majority of corporate money will move through trade associations and independent organizations,” said Michael Toner, a former Republican

chairman of the Federal Election Commission. “You don’t want a disclaimer to say, ‘Paid for by Exxon Mobil.’ It’s far more effective to say, ‘Paid for by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.’” Rep. Chris Van Hollen, DMd., and Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., said in February that they planned to introduce the legislation. The proposed legislation would require disclosure of contributors to ads urging voters to support or oppose a federal candidate, Van Hollen said. It also may extend that requirement to so-called issue ads that favor or oppose an office seeker without explicitly recommending a vote, he said.

An armored police vehicle heads down a dirt road in Hillsdale County, Mich., during a March 29 standoff with a suspected militia member. Eight men and one woman believed to be part of the Michigan-based Hutaree militia were arrested that weekend in raids in Michigan, Indiana and Ohio.

Militias Continued from A1 The best-known militias are mainly concerned with perceived violations of constitutional protections against government power, but there has long been a minority that, like the Hutaree, took a more religious view, said Robert Churchill, a University of Hartford history professor and author of â&#x20AC;&#x153;To Shake Their Guns in the Tyrantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Face,â&#x20AC;? a history of the 1990s militia movement. The group uses uniforms emblazoned with CCR for â&#x20AC;&#x153;Colonial Christian Republic,â&#x20AC;? and believes that former NATO leader Javier Solana could be the Antichrist. On Friday, a federal judge ordered the nine Hutaree members to remain jailed until trial, calling evidence against them â&#x20AC;&#x153;very disturbing.â&#x20AC;? They face charges of sedition and use of weapons of mass destruction. Authorities said they planned to act in the coming weeks; their defense attorneys counter that the group was guilty only of swagger. The militia movement has been mostly out of the public eye since the late 1990s, but it began to regain strength during George W. Bushâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s presidency and has experienced a renaissance under the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first black president. Since Barack Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s inauguration last year, the number of militias in the country has tripled, according to a recent report from the Southern Poverty Law Center, which monitors extremist groups. The center identified 512 active â&#x20AC;&#x153;patriot groupsâ&#x20AC;? in 2009. Churchill said the Hutareeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s alienation from some of its militia brethren corresponds to a split in the movement that was also evident during its last time in the limelight, during the 1990s. The Hutaree, he said, appeared to be part of a â&#x20AC;&#x153;millennialistâ&#x20AC;? militia movement largely concerned with end-times prophecy and full-blown, New World Ordertype anti-government conspiracy theories. After the recent arrest, some

militia groups were sympathetic to the Hutaree, while stopping short of endorsing violence. But several militias distanced themselves from the Hutaree. Michael Vanderboegh, a former militia member who is prominent in the anti-government constitutionalist movement, called it â&#x20AC;&#x153;nuttery.â&#x20AC;? This separation reflects an earlier pattern. In the 1990s, Churchill said, the constitutionalist groups also made serious efforts to distinguish themselves from the millennialists. Miracle, the Michigan militia member, said one of his groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s affiliated organizations, called the Lenawee Brigade, was contacted by a Hutaree member seeking help when federal heat was becoming evident. Miracle said the Lenawee turned the Hutaree down. Mark Potok of the Southern Poverty Law Center contended that the Hutaree had plenty in common with the mainstream militia movement. He said many groups fear a new world order and globalist conspiracy against the U.S., but lack the Hutareeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s overt Christian rhetoric. He also

pointed to the groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s MySpace page, which he said had more than 300 friends listed from other wings of the movement. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t viewed as the lunatic fringe two weeks ago,â&#x20AC;? he said. Potok acknowledged that only a tiny minority of militia members seek violence. Aitan Goelman, who was part of the team that prosecuted the Oklahoma City bombing, said that when people start to act on violent rhetoric, it frequently produces divisions. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It goes beyond fantasy and your purported ideals and becomes a real gut-check moment,â&#x20AC;? he said. The distinctions among militia groups may hark back to the Clinton era, but Churchill notes one new trend in the age of Obama: the increased use of patriot-style rhetoric in mainstream discourse. Referring to the angry vocabulary used by lawmakers and media pundits such as Glenn Beck, Churchill said the wall between the patriotsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; sphere of conversation and that of mainstream conservatives â&#x20AC;&#x153;is starting to break down, is starting to erode.â&#x20AC;?

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really good that essentially control over the intellectual property remains here, that the physical assets remain here.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Gary Firestone, an assistant city attorney who represented Bend in the Epic Air proceedings

Epic Air Continued from A1 The LT uses super-light composite materials, cruises at more than 400 mph and sells for nearly $2 million â&#x20AC;&#x201D; about half of what an equivalent factory-built aircraft costs. LT Builders had expected to license the LTâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s composite fiber technology from the Chinese, but in negotiations were able to persuade the Chinese to instead grant the American firm the intellectual property and physical assets. Under the final deal, the Chinese will license the technology from LT Builders Group, Ingalsbe said. Gary Firestone, an assistant city attorney who has represented Bend in the proceedings, said the new deal was even better news for the city. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really good that essentially control over the intellectual property remains here, that the physical assets remain here,â&#x20AC;? he said. The new deal gives more control to the domestic firm, making it less dependent on the goodwill of the Chinese firm, and â&#x20AC;&#x153;thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why i think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good news,â&#x20AC;? Firestone said. Under the arrangement, LT Builders Group will market the

Epic LT kit in North America, while the Chinese can market it elsewhere. The kit-built planes are called â&#x20AC;&#x153;experimental,â&#x20AC;? since they have not yet been certified by the government as airworthy. LT Builders and the Chinese would both be able to sell the plane anywhere if it is eventually certified, a designation that could lead to a significant increase in the Bend plant. Ingalsbe, who has vowed to support the new Bend company with his own Omaha, Neb., firm, Independent Technologies, said there is one hangup: a dispute with the firmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s landlord, a limited liability company known as ER1 LLC. The company includes the former CEO of Epic, Rick Schramek. Ingalsbeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s partner in LT Builders, Doug King, said the number of people who can be hired in part depends on what rent ER1 agrees to. So far, he said, ER1 has been unreasonable and is â&#x20AC;&#x153;holding Bend hostage.â&#x20AC;? The lawyer for ER1, Las Vegas attorney Thomas Fell, disagreed, saying it was the LT Builders who appeared to be driving a hard bargain. Still, he said negotiations had resumed after the hearing, at which the judge encouraged Ingalsbe and King to keep trying. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are not looking to profit off

of anybody at this point,â&#x20AC;? Fell said, adding that the firm was trying to cover its mortgage, insurance and related costs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our goal is to have a tenant operating in that building, as the city of Bend wants and desires, and obviously to provide the employment and the tax base that most communities are in desperate need for right now.â&#x20AC;? He expressed hope the two will reach a deal today on rent. Officially known as Aircraft Investor Resources, Epic started in Bend in 2004 with the help of state loans and grants totaling $1.3 million, building a $4.5 million plant on the east side of the airport. It vowed to create 400 jobs. Before layoffs last year, the firm employed about 150 people. Epic filed for bankruptcy last September after a breach of contract lawsuit was filed against it. The only other airplane maker at the Bend Airport, Columbia Aircraft Manufacturing Corp., filed for bankruptcy in September 2007. Cessna Aircraft Co. bought Columbia but shut down its Bend facility last year. Contacted by telephone, Schramek, the former Epic CEO, declined to comment.

Most of Chileâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s modern buildings emerged with little more than broken plaster, but there were some spectacular failures among recently built structures. Some experts blame code violations that lax inspections failed to catch. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not enough to have a good law â&#x20AC;&#x201D; you have to follow it,â&#x20AC;? says Rodolfo Saragoni, the University of Chileâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top seismic engineer. Chileans who lost their homes are asking how building firms got away with cutting corners. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never made walls this thin for this kind of building,â&#x20AC;? said civil engineer Carolina Astorga, showing the AP the damaged foundations of her 19-story apartment building in Santiago. She moved in a month before the quake. Now the building is sunken, leaning and uninhabitable. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They save more rebar, more money and it comes out cheaper for the contractor. But here are the consequences.â&#x20AC;? Code enforcement here, as in Chile, falls to local governments. Some are sticklers, but others are essentially â&#x20AC;&#x153;paper building departments, where theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re pushing paper but not actually rigorously enforcing building codes,â&#x20AC;? said Fred Turner, a structural engineer with Californiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Seismic Safety Commission.

Tsunami response Likewise, the tsunami responsible for most of Chileâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s death toll was perfectly predictable from official flood maps published on the navyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Web site. But the coastal cities devastated by the waves did nothing to incorporate the

charts in public planning. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At the least, it indicates a profound lack of coordination between institutions,â&#x20AC;? said Hugo Romero, a geographer at the University of Chile. At worst, he said, it may reflect commercial interests overwhelming the public interest. Chileâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s landscape is similar to built-up stretches of the West Coast, where state and federal officials have worked to make flood maps available, but local authorities donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t always pay heed. Some cities â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Long Beach, Crescent City and Santa Barbara among those in California â&#x20AC;&#x201D; now incorporate tsunami risks in their public planning. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Other jurisdictions just havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t gotten around to doing anything yet,â&#x20AC;? Turner said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;California is catching up,â&#x20AC;? he added, noting that Oregon and Washington have a fraction of the population exposure along the coast, but have done more to prepare for the next tsunami.

Northwest at risk In other respects, the Pacific Northwest is at risk. Scientists say a nearby coastal fault like Chileâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s will likely slip within a few decades, releasing a similarly devastating megaquake. A magnitude-9 quake struck the area in 1700. Washingtonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s building codes were updated to international seismic standards in recent years, but Chile has shown that great standards on paper do nothing when a city is full of older buildings that were grandfathered in. University of California at Berkeleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jack Moehle, who led a team of engineers assessing Chileâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s damage, takes that lesson from two cities near the epicenter: Chillan was almost entirely rebuilt with stronger buildings after a 1939 quake, and survived this one more or less OK. Nearby Talca was full of earlier architecture â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and devastated. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To see Chillan versus Talca, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like day and night,â&#x20AC;? he said. Californiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s older cities would suffer more like Talca did if a major quake struck them today, Moehle warns. Hospitals and other key buildings in parts of California could fare even worse than those in Chile, said structural engineer Bill Holmes, who has been examining Chileâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hospitals. Many had

72 hours worth of gas and water on site, which proved invaluable in the catastropheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s aftermath. Californiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hospitals are not expected to meet that standard until 2030. And 1 in 10 wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even be safe from collapse by 2015, according to a report prepared for the California Senateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Health Committee in February. The rare intensity of Chileâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s earthquake is also teaching engineers about how international seismic standards might be improved. Chileâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s temblor included an unexpected amount of vertical shaking in addition to the usual horizontal movement, according to structural engineer Jay Guin, who runs risk modeling for Applied Insurance Research Worldwide. Both Chile and the U.S. may need to update building codes accordingly â&#x20AC;&#x201D; perhaps applying tougher standards to shakier ground, like the volcanic ash under Concepcion or the landfill under parts of San Francisco. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It acts like Jell-O. You get that extra violent shaking,â&#x20AC;? said Bettenhausen.

Continued from A1 Gisler, 64, said Wednesday the bankruptcy was primarily brought on because he has reduced commercial rents in recent years to keep his tenants, who are mainly small-business owners. “I have accommodated them rent-wise and that really led to the problems because I didn’t think it was good business to let them bleed to death and be gone,” Gisler said. “So even though the rents declined below the level that would sustain the operations of the buildings, I have done my best to keep the buildings in operation.” Gisler said he “deferred the property taxes” on his buildings so that he could make the payments, and has appealed the amount of taxes assessed. But county records show he now owes nearly $300,000 in back taxes, an amount Deschutes County Deputy Tax Collector Dave Lilley called “one of the largest I’ve seen” in his 12 years on the job. Nearly $60,000 of that tax debt is related to the Old Penny Galleria in the 1000 block of Wall Street in downtown Bend. Roberta Johnson, owner of Sports Vision Bend, said she has been a tenant in that building since 1989 and that Gisler has given her breaks on rent, including an unexpected one-third reduction in December. “He didn’t say a thing, he just took it off the bill. I didn’t even have to ask,” Johnson said. Gisler said he was driven to help his 150 tenants in various locations “survive the challenges of these times.” But Gisler, who owns Oregon Lifestyles Realty and is the CEO of a Coloradobased oil and gas exploration company, may not survive financially himself. He now owes debts to about two dozen creditors for real estate as well as property including a private plane, a boat, 11 several cars, a $12,000 irrigation system and a tractor.

Gisler’s family has lived in Central Oregon for decades and developed more than 1,000 acres from La Pine to Redmond. The family also discovered a freshwater well in La Pine that now bears the Gisler name, according to Bulletin archives. But in the late ’90s, Gisler stirred controversy in Bend when he bought a former Moose Lodge building near the Bend Parkway that he rented to a strip club. The building was later burned by the club’s owner in an arson. In 2000, Gisler was part of a movement to develop Bend’s northeast side, resulting in a master plan covering about 700 acres in the area of 18th Street and Cooley Road where housing developments now sit. A year later, Gisler and his brother gave the city of Bend

WASHINGTON — Two weeks after President Barack Obama signed the big health care overhaul into law, Americans are struggling to understand how — and when — the sweeping measure will affect them. Questions reflecting confusion have flooded insurance companies, doctors’ offices, human resources departments and business groups. “They’re saying, ‘Where do we get the free Obama care, and how do I sign up for that?’” said Carrie McLean, a licensed agent for eHealthInsurance.com. The California-based company sells coverage from 185 health insurance carriers in 50 states. McLean said the call center had been inundated by the uninsured, who were hoping that the overhaul would translate into instant, affordable coverage. That widespread misconception may have originated in part from distorted rhetoric about the legislation bubbling up from the debate about it in Washington and some media outlets, such as when opponents denounced it as socialism. “We tell them it’s not free, that there are going to be things in place that help people who are lowincome, but that ultimately most of that is not going to be taking place until 2014,” McLean said. Adults with pre-existing conditions are frustrated to learn that insurers won’t have to cover them

debts and each of those loans will be renegotiated with the lender,” Gisler said. Gisler also will have to pay in full 5 the back taxes he owes to Deschutes County or the properties will be foreclosed on, said Lilley, the deputy tax collector. The county can foreclose when the taxes owed are three years past due, though the bankruptcy process puts the possibility of foreclosure on hold. “We are precluded from foreclosing while the properties are in bankruptcy,” Lilley said. “And clearly it can delay the collection of the taxes but it won’t affect the ultimate outcome.” He said Gisler’s biggest past-due tax debt, about $151,000 on a building in the 1300 block of northwest Wall, is about a 10 year past due. Gisler said he anticipates paying off his debts but does not expect to sell property to make that happen. Gisler said he has tried to sell properties in recent years but commercial investors aren’t buying in this economy. “We found that there is very limited or no financing for investor-owned buildings,” Gisler said. “There is limited financing for owner-occupants, but we don’t really have any occupants that are big enough to acquire those buildings.” A hearing on Gisler’s bankruptcy case has been scheduled in federal bankruptcy court in Portland in June.

The family, which owns property in the Tumalo area, tried to make their presence in Central Oregon more permanently known when they made a failed bid to have a road in the area named “Gisler Trail.” More recently, Gisler’s financial troubles have resulted in civil lawsuits filed in Deschutes County Circuit Court alleging he had failed to repay loans to both banks and private individuals. Last year, a lien was placed on

a home Gisler owns in Tumalo when a tenant there failed to pay the water bill. Earlier this year Gisler said he was fighting the district’s lien, in part because it wanted to charge him $3,000 for its attorney fees.

Mass confusion over what, when health initiatives kick in By Margaret Talev

HEALTH CARE REFORM until 2014 (though those under 18 will be protected in late September); then they become both hopeful and confused upon learning that a federal high-risk pool for them will be established in the next few months. “Health insurance is so confusing. You add this on top of it and it makes it even more confusing,” McLean said. The Obama administration is embarking on a years-long public education campaign about the overhaul, including a Web component. However, much of the guidance will depend on Department of Health and Human Services regulations that are still being developed. Parents of young adults, including those who are preparing to graduate from college this spring, have heard that the overhaul will let them keep their children on their insurance plans until they reach age 26. That starts in September, however; they have to determine how to cover them until then. A new wave of inquiries could come next month as federal COBRA subsidies for laid-off workers dry up. Americans who already have good coverage aren’t so worried about the immediate implications, but some admit that they’re plenty

confused. “Why does it take so long for certain health care things to take effect?” said Sandra Preston, a state employee in Paterson, N.J. Ben Wiesen, a software engineer who works for a small company in Tarrytown, N.Y., said he’d read up on the overhaul but remained concerned about the unknowns. “The timelines have been pretty clearly stated,” he said. “It’s the execution and the details: How are they really going to roll out the changes, and who ultimately will be the arbiter and decision-maker?” Many small-business owners are nervous about requirements being phased in. “Members are still trying to wrap their head around everything that’s in this law,” said Michelle Dimarob, the manager of legislative affairs for the National Federation of Independent Business, the small-business lobby. Dimarob said the lobby’s primary concern was that its costs would rise over the next four years as a result of fees, taxes and coverage mandates related to the overhaul. “The next question that comes out of their mouths is: ‘What do I have to do right now?’ They need to start talking with their accountant, depending on how they’re organized, what industry they’re in and whether they’re offering insurance now and what kind they’re offering. We’re suggesting they talk to their agent or broker.”

US Airways in talks with United Airlines Merger would create second-largest U.S. airline By Jad Mouawad New York Times News Service

United Airlines and US Airways are in merger talks that, if successful, would create the nation’s secondbiggest airline. It is the third time in a decade that they have attempted to make a deal. The negotiations mark the latest efforts to consolidate the struggling airline industry, which lost $60 billion over the last decade as fuel costs soared and the number of travelers

fell in the recession. Both companies have been vocal in calling for greater partnerships. In fact, none of the major airlines, except low-cost carrier Southwest Airlines, turned a profit last year. And analysts have said that despite the steep cuts in capacity by all the airlines in the last couple of years, there are still too many airlines chasing too few travelers. A combination of United and US Airways could help both return to profit faster than go-

ing it alone by achieving greater efficiencies. But mergers in the airline industry have been notoriously difficult to pull off, in part because complex labor contracts can offset the promised cost savings. The latest combination, involving Delta Air Lines and Northwest Airlines, creating the nation’s largest airline, took nearly two years to complete. One reason that merger succeeded was because Delta and Northwest negotiated a seniority plan and a new collective bargaining agreement with the pilots. See Airlines / B5

INVESTIGATING THE ORIGINS OF THE FINANCIAL CRISIS

Greenspan says it’s not his fault

American General Finance, which has one branch in Bend, was fined $75,000 by the state of Oregon for an incident in Salem that could have led to identity theft of its customers, the Department of Consumer and Business Services announced Wednesday in a news release. The department is requiring heightened supervision of employees to ensure the protection of customers’ personal information. The incident that caused the fine happened in the Salem branch office in April 2007. An American General branch manager threw away 773 checks made to the firm by Oregonians, according to the department. But the manager did not shred the checks, and instead merely placed them in a trash can on a commercial thoroughfare. The checks had names, addresses, bank account numbers and, in one instance, a Social Security number, the news release said. American General has taken corrective action since and the fine included a $25,000 contribution to the Department of Consumer and Business Services consumer education fund, the release said.

Nonprofit offers free legal advice on low-income bankruptcy filing By David Holley The Bulletin

When the collection agencies come calling, but paying back debt isn’t possible, some immediately turn to one option: filing for bankruptcy. But bankruptcy might not be smart for many low- or no-income individuals because they could have few assets to sell off in a Chapter 7 liquidation, meaning the bankruptcy could potentially be more detrimental than beneficial. A group of attorneys offered pro bono advice like that to low-income people who are considering bankruptcy at an April 2 clinic put on by the Bend office of Legal Aid Services of Oregon. Ten people attended and received free legal counseling at the clinic, which was based on a similar operation in Portland that has occurred for more than a decade. The April 2 event will be followed by two more on July 23 and Nov. 19 at the Rosie Bareis Community Campus in Bend. Legal Aid Services, a nonprofit organization with offices throughout Oregon that offers legal services to low-income clients, chose to host the clinics in response to growing demand for bankruptcy legal advice, said Leigh Dickey, the Bend regional director.

Former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan is sworn in on Capitol Hill in Washington on Wednesday prior to testifying before the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission. The panel is examining the causes of the collapse of major financial institutions.

WASHINGTON — The era of record-low mortgage rates is over. The average rate on a 30-year loan has jumped from about 5 percent to more than 5.3 percent in just the past week. As mortgages get more expensive, more would-be homeowners are priced out of the market — a threat to the fragile recovery in the housing market. And if you wanted to refinance at a super-low rate, you may have missed your chance. Mortgages under 4 percent are still available, but only for loans that reset in five or seven years, probably to higher rates. Rates are going up because of the improving economy and the end of a government push to make mortgages cheaper. For people putting their homes on the market this spring, rising rates may actually be a good thing. Buyers are racing to complete their purchases and lock in something decent before rates go even higher. See Mortgage / B5

WASHINGTON — Former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan defended his legacy Wednesday, telling a special panel that’s looking into the origins of the financial crisis that insufficient bank capital and poor business decisions brought the nation to the brink of ruin, and it wasn’t his fault. Greenspan’s appearance before the congressionally created Finan-

cial Crisis Inquiry Commission was much anticipated and didn’t disappoint. It included revelations that the Fed’s own internal reviews had found insufficient policing of Citigroup, which taxpayers later rescued. A regulator whom Greenspan had silenced also grilled him mercilessly. “The Fed utterly failed to prevent the financial crisis,” Brooksley Born told Greenspan, after reeling off a litany of what she called failures by the central bank that

helped bring about what Greenspan himself now labels the worst financial crisis ever. Born was the chairman of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission in the late 1990s, and her unheeded warnings to Greenspan and other top Clinton administration officials came back to haunt the nation. On Wednesday, she tried in vain to get Greenspan to acknowledge that deregulating the markets in 2000 allowed for an explosion of complex insurance-like products called credit-default swaps, which helped spark the collapse and rescue of insurer American International Group.

in cash reserves and marketable securities at year’s end, including $12.5 billion in government loan money being held in an escrow account. GM had just $14.2 billion on hand a year earlier. GM reiterated a commitment to pay off the balance of its debt to the American and Canadian governments by June. It made payments totaling $2.8 billion, including interest, in December and March toward an initial balance of $8.3 billion. Most of the $50 billion GM borrowed was converted to a 61 percent equity stake held by the Treasury Department. The only way the Treasury can recover that debt is through the sale of its stock. Liddell said a public stock offering would occur “as soon as it makes sense,” but only “when the markets and the company are ready.”

Nearly half of U.S. households escape 2009 federal income tax By Stephen Ohlemacher The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Tax Day is a dreaded deadline for millions, but for nearly half of U.S. households it’s simply somebody else’s problem. About 47 percent will pay no federal income taxes at all for 2009. Either their incomes were too low, or they qualified for enough credits, deductions and exemptions to eliminate their liability. That’s according to projections by the Tax Policy Center, a Washington research organization. Most people still are required to file returns by the April 15 deadline. The penalty for skipping it is limited to the amount of taxes owed, but it’s still almost always better to file: That’s the only way to get a refund of all the income taxes withheld by employers. In recent years, credits for low- and middle-income families have grown so much that a family of four making as much as $50,000 will owe no federal income tax for 2009, as long as there are two children younger than 17, according to a separate analysis by the consulting firm Deloitte Tax. Tax cuts enacted in the past decade have been generous to wealthy taxpayers, too, making them a target for President Barack Obama and Democrats in Congress. Less noticed were tax cuts for low- and middleincome families, which were expanded when Obama signed the massive economic recovery

package last year. The result is a tax system that exempts almost half the country from paying for programs that benefit everyone, including national defense, public safety, infrastructure and education. It is a system in which the top 10 percent of earners — households making an average of $366,400 in 2006 — paid about 73 percent of the income taxes collected by the federal government. The bottom 40 percent, on average, make a profit from the federal income tax, meaning they get more money in tax credits than they would otherwise owe in taxes. For those people, the government sends them a payment. “We have 50 percent of people who are getting something for nothing,” said Curtis Dubay, senior tax policy analyst at the Heritage Foundation. The vast majority of people who escape federal income taxes still pay other taxes, including federal payroll taxes that fund Social Security and Medicare, and excise taxes on gasoline, aviation, alcohol and cigarettes. Many also pay state or local taxes on sales, income and property. That helps explain the country’s aversion to taxes, said Clint Stretch, a tax policy expert Deloitte Tax. He said many people simply look at the difference between their gross pay and their take-home pay and blame the government for the disparity. “It’s not uncommon for people to think that their Social Security taxes, their 401(k) contribu-

tions, their share of employer health premiums, all of that stuff in their mind gets lumped into income taxes,” Stretch said. The federal income tax is the government’s largest source of revenue, raising more than $900 billion — or a little less than half of all government receipts — in the budget year that ended last Sept. 30. But with deductions and credits, especially for families with children, there have long been people who don’t pay it, mainly lower-income families. The number of households that don’t pay federal income taxes increased substantially in 2008, when the poor economy reduced incomes and Congress cut taxes in an attempt to help recovery.

GM said Wednesday it had positive cash flow of $1 billion in the six months after it emerged from bankruptcy protection.

WASHINGTON — Standard & Poor’s, the McGrawHill Cos. unit facing increased regulation after flawed assessments of mortgage bonds, is enlisting Republican lawmakers to kill legislation that may make it easier to sue credit-rating firms. Senate Banking Committee members Bob Corker of Tennessee and Judd Gregg of New Hampshire are being asked to help defeat a proposal that may make judges less likely to dismiss lawsuits against ratings firms, McGraw-Hill lobbyist Cynthia Braddon wrote in a March 22 e-mail to congressional staff members. The banking panel approved legislation last month that includes the liability measure as part of a sweeping plan to tighten regulation of Wall Street. Republicans could force Democrats to drop the provision in exchange for votes needed to ensure passage of the broader rules overhaul, according to a copy of Braddon’s e-mail obtained by Bloomberg News. Democrats “cannot bring this bill to the Senate floor” unless it’s supported by Republicans, Braddon wrote in the e-mail. The liability of creditrating companies “remains a bone of contention,” she wrote. Braddon didn’t return a phone call. Corker’s spokeswoman said he wasn’t available to comment and Gregg’s office didn’t respond to a request for comment. Public pension funds say S&P and Moody’s Investors Service helped cause the global financial crisis by giving top rankings to mortgage bonds after receiving fees from banks to rate the assets. The blame isn’t guaranteeing legal victories, a point underscored March 31 when a federal judge in New York dismissed a suit accusing S&P and Moody’s of defrauding investors who relied on their ratings before buying $63 billion of securities. Without legislative changes, litigation against a creditrating firm has little chance of succeeding, said Michael Perino, a securities-law professor at St. John’s University in New York. “It’s going to be virtually impossible to hold the creditrating agency liable,” he said.

DETROIT — The first detailed financial report from General Motors since its bankruptcy showed a company that has largely stanched the hemorrhaging in its day-to-day business, but is still cleaning up problems left over from its collapse last year. GM said Wednesday that it had positive cash flow of $1 billion in the six months after it emerged from bankruptcy protection last July, but that it lost $4.3 billion in that period, mostly because of the cost of settling with the United Auto Workers union over retiree health benefits, one of the burdens that helped bring the company to its knees. The automaker said that with those matters behind it and the economy improving, it could make a profit in 2010, echoing previous predictions. Officials said the company made progress toward that goal in the first quarter, without being specific. The bankruptcy cleared $83 billion in liabilities from GM’s balance sheet, the company said. Wiping out that debt already has saved GM billions of dollars in interest; it paid $28.6 million a day in interest in the months before bankruptcy, but those payments dropped 86 percent, to $4 million a day, after bankruptcy. With those debts gone, GM said gross margins on vehicle sales edged into positive territory, at 1.9 percent, compared with negative 18.5 percent in early 2009. Cash-flow was a positive $1 billion from July 10, when GM emerged from bankruptcy by

P F Free-spending teenagers seen as retailers’ salvation While adults boost savings, teens are eager to spend every penny they get By Andrea Chang

A sigh of relief At a shopping center recently in Canoga Park, Calif., Sabrina Sigal, 14, was browsing through racks of brightly colored dresses and striped shirts at trendy retailer XXI Forever, one of her favorite stores. “Last year, I didn’t shop as much,” the eighth-grader from Calabasas, Calif., said. But now, “the urge has come.” Sabrina, who was shopping for spring clothing and a friend’s birthday present, said she visits the mall about once a week. Her favorite trends include highwaisted skirts, cardigans, florals and small details such as lace, zippers and studs. “I don’t really set a budget for myself,” she said. “I just buy what I love.” Nearby, her best friend, 14year-old Makenna Spiegel, was checking the price tag on a bright red jacket with silver shoulder embellishments. “The deals are great, and it makes us want to shop,” Makenna said. “So we may as well get more.” That has retailers breathing a sigh of relief. “2009 was a very difficult year for us, and we’re starting to see the uptick,” said Patti Whisler, regional planning manager of Macy’s southwest region. “Juniors is at the forefront of our improved business, so it’s outpacing some of the other businesses that we have right now.” At surfwear seller Billabong, teens appear to be less concerned about price lately as they buy dresses, tops and shorts for beach season, said Candy Harris, women’s brand director. “Last year, there was a hesitation when it came to making the final purchase,” she said. “Teens were second-guessing their premium purchases and instead were really focusing on price-

The most coveted shopper these days isn’t a wealthy housewife toting a Chanel handbag. It’s more likely her daughter. By most accounts, teenagers are ideal consumers: Typically unhampered by debt, bills and mortgages, they spend freely and impulsively. Unlike their time-strapped parents, they hit the malls frequently and stay longer. And peer pressure at school makes it easy to justify dropping all of last week’s allowance on the latest Lady Gaga album, Xbox 360 video game or premium jeans. So retail industry watchers were alarmed when teen spending plunged during the recession. “Bank of Mom and Dad — on pretty much all income levels — basically shut down in the back end of ‘08 and the beginning of ‘09,” said Christine Chen, a retail analyst at Needham & Co. But now teen shoppers are making a comeback. For two months in a row, teen retailers have soared past sales expectations. Notably, Abercrombie & Fitch Co., known for its sexy advertising and casual-but-pricey fashions, snapped its 20-month streak of negative sales with an 8 percent increase in January. Teens are hanging out at the mall after school again, goofing around with friends in dressing rooms, snacking on junk food at the food court — and giving retailers hope that they’ll help kickstart a greater wave of spending industrywide. “Whether it be sports equipment, whether it be athletic footwear, whether it be fashion, whether it be electronics, the teen market is showing signs of life and positive growth,” said Marshal Cohen, chief industry analyst at market research firm NPD Group. To be sure, not everyone is joining the spending party, and many teens say they are more cautious than before and continue to hunt for bargains. Yet teens today are spending about 6 percent to 8 percent more in general compared with a year ago, Cohen said. “Clearly the teen is leading the charge when it comes to the return.”

Billi Marder, 14, left, and Jordan Dicker, 15, look through the racks at Forever XXI in Los Angeles on March 5. The teen sector has suffered during the recession with parents giving kids less money to spend, but the demographic that retailers love the most is bouncing back. point items. The tide has started to turn this year.” Since the holidays, the Best Buy in West Los Angeles has seen business pick up among teen boys, who are snapping up the latest video games, celebrity headphones and online game cards, said Jackie Martinez, a store supervisor. “They always come in. It was just a matter of whether they were buying or not,” she said. “Before, they were probably just getting a main product, but now they’re also getting the accessories to go with it because they have more to spend.”

Growth And many retailers have gotten the go-ahead to move forward with plans for new merchandise, stores or concepts. Macy’s is working on expanding its juniors assortment and increasing its social media and digital marketing efforts. Los Angeles retailer Forever 21 recently launched HTG81, a kids’ line, and Love & Beauty, a cosmetics line. It also added categories such as swimwear and active wear, expanded its plus-size Faith 21 line and relaunched its men’s line. JCPenney is also upping its social media efforts and recently launched a celebrity fashion line for teens with Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen called Olsenboye. Meanwhile, H&M, which sells merchandise for men, women, teens and kids, is aggressively opening new stores. “We’re inspired by how teens dress — they’re influencers, they’re not afraid to take fashion risks,” H&M spokeswoman Nicole Christie said. “When we do trend forecasting for seasons ahead, we definitely look to them on new takes on existing trends. They are key to our design process, but they’re also key to our business, saleswise.” In January, Billabong launched its Runway swim collection, which features higher-ticket pieces that focus on novelty trims, prints and silhouettes. “This could have been a tougher sell in 2009 but is enjoying some great success this season,” Harris said. Alexander Keto, 19, of Newport Beach, Calif., said he usually spends nearly $250 a week on eating out, entertainment and shopping, which he charges to two credit cards bankrolled by his dad. His favorite clothing items include shirts and jeans from Urban Outfitters and Nike skateboarding shoes. “I would consider myself a free spender,” the Ohio State University freshman said. “If I really want it, I usually do purchase the item. I really haven’t had too many restrictions.”

Pent-up demand The resurgence in spending has led to two straight months of year-over-year sales increases

for teen retailers after 18 months of declines, according to Thomson Reuters. In January, the sector — which includes American Eagle Outfitters Inc., Aeropostale Inc. and Wet Seal Inc. — posted a 6.5 percent year-over-year increase, making it the month’s biggest outperformer. Last month, teen retailers again beat expectations with a 5 percent sales increase, far better than the 2.3 percent decline analysts had forecast, Thomson Reuters said. At the top of the pack was action sports retail chain Zumiez Inc. of Everett, Wash. Results are based on sales at stores open at least a year, known as same-store sales, and considered a reliable measure of retail health. “You’ve seen teens come back pretty aggressively in terms of spending,” retail analyst Chen said. “Teenagers are not a savings-oriented bunch. They spend every dollar they get.” Part of the strength comes from easy-to-beat 2009 sales figures, but it’s also due to pent-up demand among an age group that derives a lot of enjoyment and a sense of identity from material purchases, analysts said. Also, as parents slowly recover from the downturn, money tends to get funneled to their children first, industry analyst Cohen said. And because teens are still growing, there’s often a real need for a new jacket or pair of sneakers.

Social media Beyond giving retailers a muchneeded sales boost, teen shoppers may also be growing in importance thanks in part to the rise of

social media, which allows them to reach an audience far wider than their usual circle of friends, industry watchers said. With Web sites such as Twitter and Facebook, tech-savvy teens can publicly post what they’re thinking of buying while they’re at the mall and even shoot and upload photos of merchandise. Young shoppers are also using YouTube to post videos of themselves showing off their latest purchases. “Teens set the trends of pop culture,” Harris, of Billabong, said. “Their preference toward fashion, music and lifestyle trends are studied and adopted by everything from electronics to record labels and beyond. They are also becoming more global by nature, and their influences aren’t restricted by economic or geographic boundaries.” Of course, many teens continue to be hampered by tight budgets. Some complained of difficulty finding part-time jobs or said their parents had cut them off to save money. “I used to spend $100 a week, and now I spend like nothing,” said Ali Ghassemi, 18, of Irvine, Calif., while hanging out at the Fashion Island shopping center recently. So retailers say they’ll carefully monitor teen shopping patterns in the months to come. “It’s very important to keep our eye on that and make sure it’s moving in the right direction and not take anything for granted in assuming that everything we’ve done is right,” Whisler, of Macy’s, said. “Juniors tends to be a faster business in every way. When you get it wrong, you learn that quickly.”

Continued from B1 “We are seeing some panic among potential buyers who have not found houses yet,” said Craig Strent, co-founder of Apex Home Loans in Bethesda, Md. “They’re saying: Man, I should have found a house three weeks ago or last month when rates are lower.” It’s all about affordability. For every 1 percentage point rise in rates, 300,000 to 400,000 wouldbe buyers are priced out of the market in a given year, according to the National Association of Realtors. Good economic news is the first reason rates are rising: U.S. government debt, a safe haven during the recession, is losing its appeal as investors turn to stocks and riskier corporate bonds. Lower demand for debt means the government has to offer a better interest rate to sell its bonds. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note, which is closely tracked by mortgage rates, hovered above 4 percent this week, the highest since June, before falling back slightly. The second reason is the Federal Reserve. Last week, the Fed ended its program to push mortgage rates down by buying up mortgage-backed securities. When demand from the central bank was high, rates plummeted to about 4.7 percent for much of last year. And business boomed for mortgage lenders as homeowners raced to refinance out of adjustable-rate mortgages and into fixed loans. As of Wednesday, the Mortgage Bankers Association put the national average for a 30year fixed-rate mortgage at 5.31 percent. One week ago, it was 5.04 percent. Many analysts forecast rates will rise as high as 6 percent by early next year. If they go much higher, the already shaky housing recovery could stall. And that could slow the broader economic rebound. In a normal market, with home prices steadily rising, a jump in rates doesn’t cause a big dip in demand. That’s because people know their homes will eventually rise in value, and are willing to accept a higher mortgage payment. But now home prices are flat nationally and still falling in some places. Potential buyers are nervous about jumping in. “In this environment, any rise in mortgage rates does significant damage because people don’t think they’re going to get their money back” if prices fall, said Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody’s Analytics.

Continued from B1 “The success of the DeltaNorthwest merger is reinvigorating consolidation discussions in the industry,” said Bill Swelbar, a research engineer with MIT’s International Center for Air Transportation. In contrast, one of US Airways’ challenges is that it still has not integrated pilot senior-

Bankruptcy Continued from B1 Dickey said the number of people who requested and are eligible for bankruptcy assistance from Legal Aid — a person’s income level must be at or below 125 percent of the federal poverty level — increased by 55 percent from 2008 to 62 people in 2009. She expects about 100 people will seek and qualify for bankruptcy assistance in the Bend area during 2010. Already, 24 people have. “The volume of people who have been asking about bankruptcy, or collections-type issues, has about doubled in the last two years,” Dickey said. Those numbers reflect Oregon as a whole, which saw a rapid increase in bankruptcy filings between 2008 and 2009. About 45.5 percent more individuals filed for bankruptcy in 2009 — 17,484 total — compared with 2008. The number of businesses filing for bankruptcy in Oregon also has soared. It rose to 575 in 2009, up 42 percent from 2008. Through March 31 of this year, nearly 4,400 individuals have already filed, meaning 2010 is on schedule to have more bankruptcies than 2009.

ity since its merger with America West in 2005 due to union infighting. The labor issue could turn out to be the biggest hurdle to overcome in any merger with United. People briefed on the matter said Wednesday that a transaction involving US Airways and United was not expected to be announced for several weeks. One issue being worked out is the management structure of the combined company, these

people said. They cautioned that the discussions could still collapse. Terms of the deal could not be immediately learned. United’s chief executive, Glenn Tilton, has made no secret in recent years of his desire to find a partner, and has held extensive talks to merge with Continental in 2008 but was rebuffed. Some analysts speculated that the renewed talks with US Airways might provoke Continental to come back to the table.

“There’s a lot of people who are filing for bankruptcy,” said Brian T. Hemphill, a Bend attorney who was one of about a dozen attorneys offering free legal advice at the April 2 event. Hemphill added that because there are so many more people filing now than a few years ago, people should realize that attorneys working with Legal Aid are only offering free advice to people who meet the income restrictions. He said people may file for bankruptcy without an attorney, but having one is beneficial because an attorney can help people understand whether they actually need to file. Sometimes low-income individuals don’t need to file, even if creditors are on their tails, because they have no or few assets to liquidate to pay off their debts, Hemphill said. If they do have some assets, a $10,000 car for example, it might not be worth having that sold to pay off $15,000 in credit card debt, he said. Some people, especially those with little income, might just go ahead and file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, without the help of an attorney because attorneys can be so expensive. This program resolves that problem, Hemphill said. “It’s a rewarding experience for us to use our training and our skills to help out those in

need,” he said. At the April 2 clinic, Dickey said many individuals’ questions were resolved on the spot, and others are still considering bankruptcy. If a person does file, the attorney that assisted them last week will also provide free legal work during the bankruptcy proceeding, she said. Various groups collaborate to offer monthly bankruptcy clinics in Portland, from which Bend’s clinics stemmed. The Lawyers’ Campaign for Equal Justice, a nonprofit that works to support the various Legal Aid programs in Oregon, helped Bend Legal Aid start the program in Bend. “The legal aid office in Bend was being flooded with requests for bankruptcy requests they couldn’t handle,” said Sandra Hansberger, executive director of Campaign for Equal Justice. In addition to the one-on-one legal counseling on July 23 and Nov. 19, there also will be a general overview of bankruptcy during each session, Dickey said.

vast three-dimensional array of memristors. The scheme could potentially free designers to stack thousands of switches in a high-rise fashion, permitting a new class of ultradense computing devices even after two-dimensional scaling reaches fundamental limits. Memristor-based systems also hold out the prospect of fashioning analog computing systems that function more like biological brains, Chua said. “Our brains are made of memristors,” he said, referring to the function of biological syn-

apses. “We have the right stuff now to build real brains.” In an interview at the HP research lab, Stan Williams, a company physicist, said that in the two years since announcing working devices, his team had increased their switching speed to match today’s conventional silicon transistors. “Not only do we think that in three years we can be better than the competitors,” Williams said. “The memristor technology really has the capacity to continue scaling for a very long time, and that’s really a big deal.”

Greenspan Continued from B1 Greenspan said those products weren’t an issue at the time of deregulation, but Born reminded him that they became one of the principal causes of the financial meltdown in September 2008. “Are you aware that the collapse of AIG was caused by its commitments under credit-default swaps that it had issued? The taxpayer has had to bail out AIG because of its exposure to credit-default swaps to the tune of more than $180 billion,” she told Greenspan. At the end of the bitter exchange, Greenspan told Born, “I really fundamentally disagree with your point of view.” He said the financial crisis occurred because regulators were unaware at the time that capital requirements — how much banks have to sock away to offset potential losses — were insufficient. Even this begrudging mea culpa from Greenspan, however, had a caveat. Regulators “were undercapitalizing the banking system for 40 or 50 years,” he said, suggesting that the problem predated his 18-year tenure. The other major cause, he said, was a breakdown at the originating point of mortgage finance, where lenders failed to know their clients, the borrowers, sufficiently. This can’t be regulated, he suggested, but it’s a fundamental part of doing business. The explanation, however, misses the fact that regulators allowed popular no-documentation loans, in which a borrower who was willing to pay a quarter-point more on a lending rate could avoid having to document any income. Commission Chairman Phil Angelides, a former California state treasurer, read Greenspan a long list of warnings from within the Fed about brewing problems in housing finance that were ignored. “You could’ve, you should’ve and you didn’t,” he said. Greenspan said the Fed couldn’t be blamed for insufficient bank regulation since it didn’t have supervisory powers over investment banks, which pooled millions of poorly underwritten loans for sale to investors. That responsibility fell to the Securities and Exchange Commission, which monitored the banks for investor protection but not for their safety and soundness, however, as it wasn’t a bank regulator.

As to why the Fed’s own inspectors within big banks failed to see problems, Greenspan said they relied on creditrating agencies to determine the riskiness of complex securities backed by pools of U.S. mortgages. Under questioning from Heather Murren, a former Merrill Lynch research analyst, Greenspan appeared surprised that two internal reviews by the Fed, obtained by the commission, were critical of how the Federal Reserve Bank of New York policed the risks taken by Citigroup and other Wall Street banks. A so-called closeout report by the Fed in May 2005 found that “there are insufficient resources to conduct continuous supervisory activities in a consistent manner.” A similar report in December 2009, after Greenspan was gone, concluded that the “supervision program for Citigroup has been less than effective” and cited “significant weaknesses in the execution of the supervisory program.” Greenspan seemed vexed. “I’ve heard those things, and I must say I don’t recall a single instance where a request for funding for supervision and regulation was turned down by the (Federal Reserve) Board,” he said. “I find this notion of inadequacy not verifiable.” He also disputed the idea that Wall Street banks with seats on the board of directors of the New York Fed have a conflict of interest. “I personally have seen no evidence that members of the board ... had any influence on policy” other than giving advice, he said. Much of Wednesday’s hearing focused on subprime lending to the weakest borrowers and the growing exposure of quasi-government entities Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to risks from these bad loans. Members disagreed about whether these entities were the cause of the housing crisis or simply the enablers. Today, the commission will hear from Chuck Prince, the former Citigroup CEO who famously explained Wall Street’s inability to step back from the abyss by saying that as long as the music was playing he had to dance. Robert Rubin, a Citi CEO before he became the economic face of the Clinton administration as treasury secretary, also will go before the commission. On Friday, the commission grills the former heads of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

REDMOND — When the Redmond School District adopted a four-day school week last year, nonprofits and community groups attempted to fill the void by creating a program called Choice Friday. Now the future of that program is in doubt because the district has decided to return to a five-day week next year. Dozens of Choice Friday options, mostly run by community nonprofits, emerged at schools across the district. Children could take a fly-tying class, learn karate, play soccer or have an extra tutoring session. But with class back in session on Fridays beginning this fall, organizers must remake the program. Organizers hope to offer at least 50 options next year, according to Jamie Christman, Choice Friday board of directors chairwoman. The group plans to focus on programs that will supplement school subjects. Students may even be able to earn class credit, Christman said. For instance, if the program partners with a local engineering firm, a student might be able to demonstrate math proficiency through a project organized by the company. The Redmond Area Park and Recreation District ran programs at four schools this year. Executive Director Katie Hammer said she considered the program a success because the district reached about 40 more students than in years past. And now that RAPRD understands how to work with the school district, Hammer hopes she will be able to expand even more into the schools next year. See Fridays / C5

zone. The only available lots in that zone are northwest of downtown. Currently, the code requires drive-through businesses to be 400 feet apart. It limits not just fast food, but also any business with a drive-through window, according to Councilor Pat Thompson. Weed’s proposal would allow such businesses to open on any available lot in the highway commercial zone. See Sisters / C5

Bend’s road construction budget stands to take a big hit if development does not pick up in the next few years, according to a presentation by city Finance Director Sonia Andrews. Andrews presented an overview of the city’s budget to the city council Wednesday night,

highlighting the various funds that have been hurt by the slow economy. The end of March marked the three-quarter point in the city’s current budget year. Once the primary source of funding for road construction, the systems development charges paid by new development have fallen steadily over the past three years. See Budget / C2

Over the coming weeks, Bend drivers may have fewer potholes and bumps to avoid as nine of the city’s problem-area streets are repaved. The paving will be paid for with $1.23 million in federal stimulus money the city received for road construction projects. Bend’s street supervisor Mike Linkof said repaving the city’s streets will help minimize damage to cars. “A clean, paved street is better than one that’s full of potholes and ruts,” Linkof said. Repaving is scheduled to begin Sunday and continue through the end of April. Among the roads scheduled to be resurfaced are Bond Street, Butler Market Road and Third Street. The city

Seattle officer Jimmy Swaggart saw imminent steps down amid threat, jury says scandal in 1988 By Jennifer Sullivan and Jonathan Martin The Seattle Times

SEATTLE — An inquest jury has ruled that Seattle police Officer Benjamin Kelly believed he was in imminent danger when he fatally shot Maurice Clemmons on Dec. 1, ending a twoday manhunt that started when Clemmons ambushed four officers in Pierce County. Answering a series of questions, the six-member jury was unanimous in its finding that Kelly believed Clemmons presented an imminent threat of “death or serious bodily injury” when he encountered the felon in a South Seattle neighborhood while investigating a stolen car. The jury also determined that Kelly saw Clemmons move his hands toward his waist before the officer opened fire, hitting Clemmons with four of seven gunshots. The two questions were considered key among the 19 that were weighed by the six-person jury. Clemmons had also suffered a fifth wound from a gunshot fired by Greg Richards, one of four Lakewood police officers killed by Clemmons Nov. 29 in a Parkland coffee shop. Two of the wounds inflicted by Kelly were considered fatal, jurors in King County District Court were told. Clemmons, who was armed, died at the scene.

Adequate warning? Jurors, however, could not determine whether Kelly repeatedly ordered Clemmons to show his hands before he fired. Jurors voted 6-0 that it was “unknown” whether Kelly had issued the warning. Kelly had testified that he repeatedly warned Clemmons to show his hands before he fired. The inquest jury, which heard testimony Monday afternoon and Tuesday morning, began weighing a series of questions Tuesday afternoon but did not conclude its deliberations until Wednesday morning. Rather than reach a conclusion of guilty or not guilty, inquest juries oversee fact-finding hearings to weigh evidence after a police officer uses lethal force while on duty. The King County Prosecutor’s Office will now review the jury’s findings to determine whether criminal charges should be filed. The jurors declined to comment after their findings were announced.

Closure for families King County Senior Deputy Prosecutor Kristin Richardson, who spoke with the jurors, said they believed Kelly’s actions that night were appropriate and they appreciated the decisions he made. “I’m thankful to have had the opportunity to present the facts in this matter,” Kelly said afterward. “I hope this brings some closure to the families of the Lakewood officers.” Since the hearing began Monday afternoon, jurors heard tes-

Budget Continued from C1 Collections from transportation SDCs peaked in 2006 at more than $7 million — this year, the city expects to bring in less than $1.3 million, the amount needed to pay the debt service on past road construction projects. Andrews told councilors that between reserves, money transferred from the city’s general fund, and the use of franchise fees collected from sewer and water ratepayers, the transportation fund should have about $8.6 million in the upcoming 2010-11 budget. In the following year, the budget would drop to $6.1 million, with just $14,000 left in carryover funds for 2012-13. To help close the budget gap, Andrews told councilors city staff have been looking at the idea of combining the city’s transportation engineering department and its street maintenance department. Gas taxes, franchise fees, and general fund dollars would fund the day-today operations of the combined department, she said, while any

timony from Kelly, the South Precinct patrol officer who encountered Clemmons while investigating a stolen car left running on a quiet residential street. Kelly testified Monday that Clemmons ignored several commands to remove his hands from his waistband area as he approached the officer in the dark. Kelly, fearing for his life, fired three shots at Clemmons, who began running. Kelly quickly fired another four shots as Clemmons moved away. Two of Kelly’s bullets were later determined to be fatal wounds. A third bullet — a “through-and-through” that entered Clemmons’ lower back, hit his kidney and bowel before exiting his upper abdomen — also could have been fatal if left untreated, Dr. Aldo Fusaro, of the King County Medical Examiner’s Office, testified Tuesday morning.

Manhunt On Nov. 29, Clemmons killed Lakewood Sgt. Mark Renninger and Officers Ronald Owens, Tina Griswold and Richards, setting off an intense two-day manhunt. Kelly testified Monday that when he started his overnight patrol shift on the night of Nov. 30, the thought that he might encounter the region’s most-wanted felon crossed his mind. But when Kelly actually came face to face with Clemmons, the officer’s first thought was, “I’m in trouble here.” Kelly testified he repeatedly ordered Clemmons to show his hands as the officer drew his gun. “I thought I could be dead in a matter of seconds,” Kelly said. Instead, Clemmons moved his hands toward his sweat shirt pocket and raced around the front of Kelly’s car, the officer testified. Kelly said he fired three shots, then four more as Clemmons ran away “in a dead sprint.” “I believed he was going for a gun. I discharged my duty weapon,” Kelly said. “My intent was to stop him.” A video shot from Kelly’s patrol car — shown several times to the inquest jurors — shows Clemmons racing around the front of the car, limping slightly. Clemmons, 37, made it to the sidewalk, out of Kelly’s view, before collapsing face down on a walkway leading to a home. In testimony Tuesday, Seattle police Detective Al Cruise said investigators now believe the stolen Acura Integra was left for Clemmons by an unknown associate. That car had been reported stolen at 12:38 a.m. from a home just a few blocks from where Kelly later found it. Officer Daina Bogg, among the first to arrive on the scene after the shooting, testified that she found the duty weapon belonging to Richards, the slain Lakewood police officer, in Clemmons’ pocket. She said she had trouble removing it because the gun was caught on the zipper.

SDCs that are received would be set aside for new construction. Andrews told councilors that most of the city’s revenue sources are at or near where they were expected to be when the current budget was adopted last spring. Building, planning, and engineering fees, also tied closely to the construction industry, are off significantly from last year, $1.9 million between July 2009 and March 2010 compared to $2.7 million the year before. Other funding sources have been slightly more stable. Gas tax collections are up, at $2.7 million for the first three-quarters of this year compared to $2.3 million the year before. Room tax revenues are down slightly, with $2.3 million collected compared to $2.4 million the year before and $2.7 million the year before that. Property tax collections, the city’s single-largest source of funding, are a little less than $1 million shy of the $20.2 million anticipated in the current budget.

T O D AY IN HISTORY

The Associated Press Today is Thursday, April 8, the 98th day of 2010. There are 267 days left in the year. TODAY’S HIGHLIGHT IN HISTORY On April 8, 1974, Hank Aaron of the Atlanta Braves hit his 715th career home run in a game against the Los Angeles Dodgers, breaking Babe Ruth’s record. ON THIS DATE In 1513, explorer Juan Ponce de Leon and his expedition began exploring the Florida coastline. In 1913, the 17th Amendment to the Constitution, providing for direct popular election of United States senators (as opposed to appointment by state legislatures), was ratified. In 1935, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the Emergency Relief Appropriations Act, which provided money for programs such as the Works Progress Administration. In 1946, the League of Nations assembled in Geneva for its final session. In 1952, President Harry S. Truman seized the steel industry to avert a nationwide strike. (The U.S. Supreme Court later ruled that Truman had overstepped his authority.) In 1970, the Senate rejected President Richard M. Nixon’s nomination of G. Harold Carswell to the U.S. Supreme Court. In 1973, artist Pablo Picasso died at his home near Mougins, France, at age 91. In 1988, TV evangelist Jimmy Swaggart resigned from the Assemblies of God after he was defrocked for rejecting an order from the church’s national leaders to stop preaching for a year amid reports he’d consorted with a prostitute. In 1990, Ryan White, the teenage AIDS patient whose battle for acceptance gained national attention, died in Indianapolis at age 18. In 1994, Kurt Cobain, singer and guitarist for the grunge band Nirvana, was found dead in Seattle from an apparently self-inflicted gunshot wound; he was 27. TEN YEARS AGO The Central Intelligence Agency confirmed that personnel action had been taken following the mistaken bombing of the Chinese embassy during the NATO war against Yugoslavia; one employee was reportedly fired. Oscar-winning actress Claire Trevor died in Newport Beach, Calif. at age 90.

FIVE YEARS AGO With presidents and kings looking on, hundreds of thousands of pilgrims in St. Peter’s Square sang, applauded and chanted for the Catholic Church to declare John Paul II a saint as the pope was laid to rest. ONE YEAR AGO Somali pirates hijacked the U.S.-flagged Maersk Alabama; although the crew was able to retake the cargo ship, the captain was taken captive by the raiders and held aboard a lifeboat. (Richard Phillips was rescued five days later by Navy SEAL snipers who shot three of the pirates dead.) A Russian spacecraft carrying a crew of three, including U.S. billionaire space tourist Charles Simonyi, landed safely in Kazakhstan.

O 2 Democratic candidates weigh in on tax increases By Tim Fought The Associated Press

Andy Cripe / The Corvallis Gazette-Times

Forty four-year-old Corvallis resident Jonathan Carroll gestures in front of solar panels in his yard last month in Corvallis. Carroll is a master of modification, all in pursuit of saving resources.

Corvallis resident lives a low-impact lifestyle By Cheryl Hatch Gazette-Times

CORVALLIS — Like so many homeowners, Jonathan Carroll, 44, chose his home for its size and its view. It’s a 750-square foot bungalow with purple trim and a southern exposure. Unlike many homeowners, he paid off his mortgage on his 40th birthday — a personal goal — and it costs him precious little to maintain it. The home — like much in Carroll’s life — is powered by the sun. He has a “Powered by the Sun” bumper sticker on the Zap electric car parked in his driveway, inspired by the “Powered by Biodiesel” campaign. “I took their font and their color,” Carroll said, describing his adaptation. Carroll is a master of modification, all in pursuit of saving resources. He reconfigured the battery array in his Zap car to get three times the usage. He fashioned a bike light that runs on solar power and created multiple solar arrays on his roof to power his home, his tools — his life. “I’ve always gravitated to living like this,” Carroll said. “I’ve always been this staunch environmentalist. I’m a little obsessed, but I sleep well at night.” He remembers the energy crisis of the 1970s and its long lines for gasoline and the commercial,

“I’ve always been this staunch environmentalist. I’m a little obsessed, but I sleep well at night.” — Jonathan Carroll with “the Indian paddling a canoe through all this garbage. I’ll never forget that.” A graduate of Brookfield High School in Connecticut, Carroll learned innovation from his father, an industrial arts teacher. “I was making digital clocks when I was 12 years old,” he said. In his backyard, he makes the most of his southern exposure. He has a series of solar panels that create four times the electricity he needs — including one panel that he glued together with clearcoat body paint. “I never pay for electricity.” He has nearly a dozen raised beds, a grape arbor and fruit trees. “This is only a tenth of an acre. You can grow a ton,” Carroll said. “I eat out of my garden year-round.” He grows kiwis, figs, plums, Asian pears, raspberries, blueberries and cherries. A Santa Rosa plum tree was blooming.

“That’s the beauty of this valley; it’s temperate.” He times his water usage with the seasons, too. He recycles the gray water from his washing machine in the summer to irrigate his garden. He uses phosphate soap because the plants appreciate the chemicals. In the winter, it’s non-phosphate soap because the water is returned to the city system and phosphates can create algae blooms. His toilet uses no water: It’s a composting toilet, basically a bucket and sawdust. “It’s a closed loop,” Carroll said. “I eat. I poop. I compost. I put it in the garden, and I grow food.” He can understand if his neighbors think he’s a bit eccentric. “I use a real (push) mower. They use a two-cycle gas engine mower,” he said. He thinks they’re missing out and missing the point: “Get some exercise, talk to your neighbors, hear the birds sing.” He’d like more people to simplify their lives, but he’s not a zealot. And he wants people to understand he’s not wanting for anything. “I live by example. I bike to work every day,” Carroll said. “I don’t live like a monk. I have electric guitars, a TV and a microwave. I just try to live my live with integrity.”

PORTLAND — The two Democratic contenders for governor of Oregon took a step away from their party’s legislative leadership Wednesday, suggesting they’d have supported temporary rather than permanent tax increases a year ago. Bill Bradbury and John Kitzhaber appeared in a Portland debate sponsored by business groups, including the Oregon Business Association. During the 2009 legislative session, the association argued that a tax increase proposed to fill a budget gap should be only temporary, saying that could avoid a referendum fight. Majority Democrats in the Legislature opted instead for permanent tax increases on the wealthy and on business, touching off a hard-fought campaign over Measures 66 and 67. Voters upheld the tax increases in January. The first question at the debate was what Bradbury and Kitzhaber might have done differently. Although they supported the measures as passed, both suggested that imposing them only long enough for the state to get clear of the recession might have avoided what Bradbury called “a rather divisive debate” that led to what Kitzhaber called deep wounds that have yet to heal. “I would have been encouraging the Legislature to make Measures 66 and 67 temporary,” said Bradbury, a former secretary of state. “I would have done my best to keep it from getting on the ballot in the first place,” said Kitzhaber, a former governor who noted he’d worked as a legislator on raising taxes

temporarily during the administration of Republican Gov. Vic Atiyeh. The two candidates offered few specifics for dealing with the budget next year, when the Legislature must draw up a two-year plan and face what state analysts say could be a shortfall of more than $2 billion. Bradbury said final revenue estimates are months away, and Kitzhaber said he would offer specifics during the general election campaign. That reflected his confidence that he’s ahead in the race to the May 18 primary, a view many Democrats have shared. On several questions, the two returned to campaign standbys. Bradbury said a central proposal of his campaign is putting state revenues in a state-owned bank instead of private institu-

EUGENE — A new report from the Eugene police department says officers are now using Tasers more frequently than pepper spray when confronting resistant people. The Eugene Register-Guard reports that in 2008 and 2009 officers used Tasers 49 times to subdue people, while pepper spray was used in 43 cases. In 2007 alone, a year before officers began carrying Tasers, officers used pepper spray 57 times. The police department is considering buying more Tasers, but is awaiting for Police Chief Pete Kerns to sign off on changes to Taser use policy the city police commission is now considering. Lt. Doug Mozan says the use of Tasers would lead to a drop in officer and suspect injuries.

Lane County labeled drug-dealing area EUGENE — Lane County has been designated a “high intensity drug trafficking area” to make law enforcement eligible for federal funding to help fight heroin and methamphetamine dealing. Sens. Jeff Merkley and Ron Wyden announced the designation Tuesday for the county, along with the Warm Springs

Reservation. The Register-Guard reports seven other counties have received the drug problem label: Multnomah, Clackamas, Washington, Marion, Deschutes, Jackson and Douglas.

Portland mayor warns of budget shortfall PORTLAND — Portland Mayor Sam Adams sent a memo to city commissioners Tuesday warning that revenue this year is expected to come up short of projected spending. The Oregonian reports business licenses revenue is down more than $2 million while the police bureau could overspend its budget by up to $5 million. Adams has called for a hiring freeze and no more overtime, except in an emergency. The mayor is scheduled to release his budget on April 30.

$30M for Klamath asbestos site cleanup KLAMATH FALLS — The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency says cleanup of a site north of Klamath Falls will cost as much as $30 million. But no source of funding is in place for the operation. The 125-acre site is contaminated with asbestos from past structures, including medical barracks used by the U.S. Marine Corps, single-family homes and apartments. Oregon Department of Environmental Quality officer Cliff Walkey says few options are available for funding. He says the department is considering asking Gov. Ted Kulongoski to recommend the site be added to the National Priorities List, which would designate it for federal money. While the site has been treated in the past, asbestos continues to be brought to the surface through frost and erosion. EPA cleanup plans include excavating the site, and burying contaminated materials under caps. — From wire reports

The geese win

ll feathers and no honk. That’s what the Bend Park & Recreation District’s new geese strategy looks like.

The district will “implement the GeesePeace Canada goose con-

trol model with the help of a core of volunteers,” the district announced Tuesday. The park district has tried a number of methods over the years. It’s tried birth control. It’s tried oiling eggs, loud noises and a dog giving chase. In the end, the district spends about $22,000 a year on goose control and clean up of goose droppings. Nothing has really worked. What’s new about GeesePeace? Well, there’s oiling eggs. There’s a dog herding geese. In other words, there’s not much new. Paul Stell, who is the district’s natural resources manager, hopes that by getting volunteers involved and perhaps by making feeding geese punishable with a fine, maybe a new, more determined effort will be more successful. Maybe. He pointed us to the Rockford Park District in Rockford, Ill., as a place that has successfully implemented the GeesePeace strategy. We called Jan Herbert, the project’s manager in Rockford. She does believe the program has had success — after nine years. The district oils eggs. The district also does harassment. It uses two dogs and has found that shining a laser on a goose when it’s dark can make geese nearby fly away. Signs discourage people from feeding the birds. Herbert said the goose control program costs her district about $25,000 a year. (We have no idea

how that compares, because we don’t know the relative size of the problem in Rockford.) In Rockford, there’s even a person who every winter day drops off five gallons of corn for the geese at a park, Herbert said. Rather than ask the person to stop, a park district employee comes by and shovels it all away, each day. Is that what we have to look forward to in Bend’s GeesePeace approach? Herbert has not done a goose count, but she counts the number of eggs that the district has oiled each year. The first year, the district oiled 1,200. That number rose for a few years up to a peak of about 2,400, as the district got better at locating nests. Last year, the district oiled 1,000 eggs. In government, that is probably called success. Without an actual goose count, though, nobody knows. Bend’s park district has two choices. It can pour its taxpayers’ money down that same hole for nine years. Or, as the district considered, it could trap and kill the bulk of the geese and eliminate most of the problem immediately. Then, it could follow up with a much smaller program of oiling eggs. The park district has seemingly tried to pick a policy to displace geese without ruffling any feathers. We suppose that’s like making an omelet without breaking any eggs.

Cyrus should resign I

t doesn’t take the refined nose of a sommelier to recognize the bad smell rising from the Deschutes County Planning Commission. All it takes is a quick look at commission member Keith Cyrus’ actions with regard to something he and his family want very much, indeed. The Cyruses, long-time Central Oregonians from the Cloverdale area, want to convert their Aspen Lakes subdivision and golf course into a destination resort, a move that would allow them to expand the golf course and add overnight lodging. Problem is, as things currently stand, the development does not meet the requirements of either county or state law. The family hopes that having cluster developments like theirs included on the county’s soon-to-becompleted resort land-use map will improve their chances of getting what they want. They’ve been fighting an uphill battle. The state Department of Land Conservation and Development opposes the change, as do neighbors, and the planning commission itself had earlier decided to exclude cluster developments from the new map. Cyrus has been unwilling to leave

it at that. As a member of the planning commission, he has been careful to declare his clear conflict of interest regarding cluster developments and has not voted when the issue of including them on the map has arisen. Unfortunately, he’s been far less circumspect about jawboning his fellow planning commissioners about his wishes. In one such episode at a planning commission retreat he took planning staff members to task for their treatment of his request. In fact, he has been forceful enough on the subject to leave at least three current and past planning commission members uncomfortable with his actions. In a perfect world, Cyrus would recognize the problems he has caused — he has attempted to wield influence denied members of the public with similar desires — and resign his post on the planning commission for the good of that body. Short of that, the county commission, which appoints members of the planning commission, should decline to extend Cyrus’s term when it expires at the end of June, even if he seeks to have them do so. The planning commission badly needs a breath of fresh air, and as long as Cyrus remains on the body, it can’t get one.

Tea Party cuts Since Tea Partyers wish to return our country’s political and tax posture to the days of the Articles of Confederation, it’d be more convincing that they’re sincere if we were told which specific “big government” items they wish to discard on the way to their Nirvana. For example, here in Central Oregon, would they give up studded tires to save the $10 million that these cost the state in annual road repairs, or would they happily pay a large premium for those tires to cover repair costs? Would they vote for abandonment of the interstate

highway system in favor of a nationwide network of privately-owned toll roads — the way it used to be (with suitable weight-mile premiums for their fifth-wheels and motor homes)? Would the older Tea Partyers give up their Medicare/Medicaid and Medicare prescription benefits in favor of self-funding, as well as giving back Social Security payments? Would any hyper-conservative farmer give up all crop subsidies and pay the real costs for bringing water to the fields rather than depending upon government to fund it? How about those pseudo-farmers with Christmas tree plantations — will they gladly give up the associated tax breaks? Would Tea Partyers prefer the elimination of city, state and federal police agencies in favor of town marshals hired by the community (shades of Dodge City, Kan., Abilene, Texas, etc.)? When lists of specific big-ticket items, with their associated tax rate reductions, are published by Tea Party organizations it may be possible to believe that they’re both serious and rational. Until then, their flaming rhetoric is less useful than a pile of “heifer dust.” William Walker Redmond

Health bill harm Despite the overwhelming and angry objection of America’s general public, the Democratic Party, with the support of the nation’s unions, has finally succeeded in passing Barack Obama’s health care bill. I am glad none of my immediate family is a practicing doctor or contemplating becoming one.

It will be very interesting (perhaps frightening) to see the effect this has on the enrollment in the nation’s medical schools. Were I a pre-med student, I would be giving serious thought to switching majors — especially if I were interested in family practice. I do not think enough consideration has been given to the long-term effect that this legislation is going to have on our country. I think it comes at a very high price. Ted Lyster Bend

Take a day off April 1 came too early for many a reader of The Bulletin. The March 19 editorial headline, “Furlough Friday,” must have made many a Bend heartbeat skip. Be still my heart! Too good to be true! You must be joking! Well, yes, you were. The editors yanked the mat from beneath their readers by giving us an editorial opinion after all. Well, they let somebody else do the work apparently. Loyal Bulletin readers will recover from their disappointment soon enough, because we’re used to such shallow reflection. Indeed, we know that The Bulletin’s editors return all too often to their stock 10 or 12 pet peeves. Since so many editorials are but a minor variation on the same tune, one might easily be led to believe that The Bulletin’s editors enjoy more furlough days than workdays. As a loyal Bulletin reader, I would encourage the editors to take a Furlough Friday. Enjoy your day off. I know many of your readers will. Robert Currie Bend

Massage therapy is not a substitute for physical therapy By Ch u ck Brockman an d Lau ra Coop er Bulletin guest columnists

fter reading The Bulletin’s March 18 article, “Deschutes paid $136K last year for massages,” and following a few weeks of deliberation, we have decided — as concerned citizens, active members of the Central Oregon medical community, employers, and taxpayers — to respond to this article and share some of our expertise. The comments suggest that the county administration is electing to replace “medically necessary care” for its employees with massage therapy. Massage therapy has therapeutic benefit; however, to imply that it can replace standard medical care is not realistic. Timm Schimke made the comment, “I think our feeling was that if we can divert people from physical therapy, which is very expensive, and have their problem taken care of through massage therapy, we would save a lot of money.” This comment suggests that Schimke lacks infor-

mation about the differences between physical therapy and massage therapy. The county’s effort to save money by diverting employees from physical therapy to have their problems taken care of through massage therapy has not been tracked or to our knowledge has not been proven to save the county money. The county has not demonstrated that the money spent on massage therapy was for medically necessary care. Because our expertise is in the field of physical therapy, we would like to provide information about why physical therapy is a unique and important service. While both physical therapists and massage therapists have licensure exams and state requirements for continuing education and emphasize hands-on treatment, we are different. Physical therapists are licensed medical providers by the state of Oregon with advanced post-graduate training and ability to evaluate and treat patients with musculoskeletal dysfunction. Physical therapy

IN MY VIEW intervention is based on “medically necessary care,” as governed by states’ workers’ compensation laws. Many people do not realize the extent of a physical therapist’s education and the high standards to which we are held by ourselves, our colleagues and our professional organizations. A physical therapist’s scope of practice extends beyond the treatment of soft tissue and muscle soreness to include a full assessment of joints, neurological integrity and cardiovascular conditioning, as well as many other specialties. In addition, we assess the patient’s social and work environment to provide a holistic approach to improve the patient’s function as it relates to specific life demands. For example, a physical therapist might provide a variety of services in the case of a patient who has developed neck pain secondary to his/her work posture. For

this, individual physical therapy may include assessing work station ergonomics, prescribing specific stretching and strengthening exercises as part of a home exercise program, manual therapy to decrease pain, and workplace strategies to minimize current symptoms and prevent recurrences. The goal is to return patients to their active and healthy life as quickly and cost effectively as possible. This includes an emphasis on patient education and the patient’s role in helping themselves. As a profession, physical therapy is based more and more on critically appraised evidence. For this reason, most physical therapists in Central Oregon monitor functional outcomes. These measures can demonstrate that our medical interventions are effective and return our patients to a higher level of function. We actively engage our patients in their own treatment plan to achieve more meaningful outcomes for the patient as well as the employer. We work with physicians to

ensure our therapeutic interventions are focused toward a safe return to work and maximizing previous levels of physical function. The average medically necessary episode of physical therapy, from start to finish, costs less than $1,500. In many cases, visiting a physical therapist could save the county money in health care costs, both short and long-term, by getting county employees back to work with less likelihood of further medical intervention. We do not dismiss the role of alternative therapies and recommend these services when appropriate for our patients. We are not suggesting that physical therapy intervention is the only medically necessary option. Our goal is that the public and health care consumers are informed of the important role of physical therapists. Chuck Brockman and Laura Cooper, of Bend, are physical therapists.

Fridays Continued from C1 Plans are not finalized, but Hammer said options include after- or before-school programs. RAPRD will also likely join with 4-H to run science programs, including Lego Robotics, Hammer said. “We weren’t frustrated (by the return to five-day weeks). We did put a lot of work into Choice Friday,” Hammer said. “We saw it as an opportunity to expand and we see going back to five days as another way to expand.” Choice Friday struggled to attract students this year. About 7 percent of students attended the programs, which cost up to $15 a day. Organizers believe that more students didn’t attend for various reasons, including transportation issues and confusion

Sisters Continued from C1 Council calculated that under the 400-foot restriction, there is only room for two more drivethroughs in the highway commercial zone. The proposed change would only limit the number of fast-food drive-throughs. “I think we’ve all seen the fastfood entrances to towns and it’s not pretty,” Weed said. Despite the limits on fast food, Weed said more drive-through businesses would be allowed to open than currently can under existing code. “What that (does) is really open up a lot of opportunities for those lots that weren’t there before while still making sure we have an attractive entrance to town,” Weed said. The changes have not been written yet and are still subject to change. If Weed’s proposal is included in the code, the council must still hold public hearings before the proposed code chang-

Mankiller, first female chief of modern Cherokee Nation en to be willing to take risks, to stand up for the things they believe in, and to step up and accept the challenge of serving in leadership roles.”

By Patricia Sullivan The Washington Post

Wilma Mankiller, 64, the first female chief of the Cherokee Nation in modern times, whose leadership on social and financial issues made her tribe a national role model, died Tuesday at her home in Adair County, Okla. She had metastatic pancreatic cancer. Mankiller, principal chief of the Cherokee from 1985 to 1995, tripled Wilma her tribe’s enMankiller rollment, doubled employment and built new housing, health centers and children’s programs in northeast Oklahoma, where most of the 200,000 or so tribal members live. In 1990, she signed an unprecedented agreement in which the Bureau of Indian Affairs surrendered direct control over millions of dollars in federal funding to the tribe.

A role model Although women have long played leadership roles in Native American communities, few before Mankiller were elected to the top position of one of the country’s largest tribes. “She was the first to step forward, although that’s vastly changed in last 20 years. Many (women) are now heads of their tribes because of her,” said Susan Masten, past chairman of the Yurok tribe, who also founded Women Empowering Women for Indian Nations. “She helped create the aspiration of other women who maybe wouldn’t have thought to run for office.” Under her leadership, infant mortality declined and educational achievement of tribal members rose, although she was quick to say much more needed to be accomplished. Her attention to social and family issues sometimes caused

President Bill Clinton hugs former Cherokee Nation chief Wilma Mankiller on Jan. 15, 1998, after presenting her with a Presidential Medal of Freedom during a ceremony at the White House. Mankiller, one of the few women ever to lead a major American Indian tribe, died Tuesday after battling pancreatic cancer. She was 64. grumbling as other tribes poured more of their resources into casinos and tobacco stores, but Mankiller said, “I’d like to see whole, healthy communities again, communities in which tribe members would have access to adequate health care, higher education if they want it, a decent place to live and a decent place to work, and a strong commitment to tribal language and culture.” President Bill Clinton awarded her the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1998, and she was inducted into the National Women’s Hall of Fame in 1993. Kevin Gover, director of the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of the American Indian, said, “Wilma in some

about the cost. Students on free or reduced lunch were eligible for scholarships. But organizers always understood the district could return to five days. The program will continue to try to supplement classroom activities, Christman said. “It’s still about the concept of fostering opportunities for continued learning,” Christman said. Choice Friday leaders expected it would take at least two years to fully implement the program, according to Thom Bell, one of the original organizers. The program developed mostly options for younger students, but still needs to expanded professional training or internship options for high school students, Bell said. Whatever form Choice Friday takes next year, Bell hopes options for older students will be more robust. Those, though, are

more complicated to create because many of them — particularly internships — are set up on a student-by-student basis. Expanding the programs for high school students will also require more volunteers, Bell said. “There’s all these different ways of gaining knowledge and the community can take an active role that contributes,” Bell said. Before any programs are finalized for next year, Choice Friday organizers have to make a few changes, including figuring out a new name, according to Christman. “One thing we’re about to do is rebrand and come out with something that... doesn’t include Friday,” Christman said.

es are finalized. The council is expected to discuss Weed’s proposed change during a workshop today at 8 a.m. Weed’s proposal also includes new set-back requirements, requiring any new drive-through business to be set back 40 feet from the road, up from 5 feet, Weed said. In her proposal, Weed defines a fast-food — or formula-food — restaurant as one that, by contract, has a standardized menu, employee uniforms, design standards and color schemes. But focusing the code changes on fast-food restaurants is unnecessary, argued Mayor Lon Kellstrom. City staff may end up spending hours arguing with businesses about what is or is not fast food. And, Kellstrom said, market conditions will likely limit how many fast-food places would open. The town is small and has high land costs, he said. Buildings must also conform to the city’s 1880s Western theme. “It’s a non-issue,” Kellstrom said. “We might get one or two

more (without restrictions).” Councilors agree the code must be changed. Thompson said the previous code was too broad and affected too many types of businesses. Any revision to the code should allow for more drive-through development, Thompson said. “I think we need to loosen the restrictions to allow for other types of drive-throughs ... and not group those with fast-food restaurants,” he said. The future commercial development northwest of downtown is important because that part of the highway serves as the gateway to Sisters, Councilor Bill Merrill said. Merrill said the code was still being rewritten and Weed’s proposal was not final. “The highway commercial (zone) is at the entry to town,” Merrill said. “It’s the first and last impression you get of the city of Sisters. Yeah, we want to get it right.”

ways became larger than life and something of a legendary figure because of the force of her personality. She has a very compelling personal story ... and established herself as a leader not just in the Indian community, but beyond that.”

Cherokee values In her 1993 autobiography, “Mankiller: A Chief and Her People,” she said she wanted to be remembered for emphasizing that Cherokee values can help solve contemporary problems. “Friends describe me as someone who likes to dance along the edge of the roof,” she wrote. “I try to encourage young wom-

Roads Continued from C1 “Butler Market, Third Street — those are all streets that have significant wear, tear, rutting, ponding — lots of water. So we had the federal money and that’s how they made the list. It’s fairly spread out over the city and no one area is getting all of the work,” Linkof said. Bend resident Chuck Arnold, 42, drives or rides his bicycle to work at the Downtown Bend Business Association each day, traveling along Colorado Avenue between Simpson Avenue and Century Drive. That’s one of the stretches set to be repaved. The pavement there is split and cracked, making it hazardous for bicyclists and drivers, he said. “Taking it down and grinding it down and replacing it is going to be really huge for safer bicycle-riding around there, and also for cars too,” Arnold said, adding that commuters won’t have to avoid obstacles in the road. “It’s going to make it a lot better and safer when I come downtown with my kids on bikes too.” Access to affected homes and businesses between 7 p.m. and 7 a.m. will be limited, and some streets will be closed for about 12 hours, Linkof said. Equipment problems or wet weather conditions could postpone projects, Linkof said. Depending on weather conditions, each project should take at least one day to complete, he said. “The nights of work, for instance on Bond, we’ll work on

She was born Nov. 18, 1945, in Tahlequah, Okla., one of 11 children and a fifth-generation Mankiller. Her surname was an old term of respect for Indian warriors who guarded tribal villages. “It’s a nickname — and I earned it,” she would sometimes tease inquirers. After drought devastated her family’s land in the 1950s, the U.S. government moved them to a housing project in California. She married an Ecuadoran accountant, Hector Olaya, in 1963, and they had two daughters, Felicia Olaya and Gina Olaya, both of whom survive her. But hers was an unhappy marriage, she wrote, especially after she began taking college classes and bought a car without her husband’s knowledge. She started visiting the Indian activists who had occupied the abandoned federal prison on Alcatraz Island in 1969, a controversial protest that was “a tremendous wake-up call,” she later said. After divorcing Olaya, she moved back to her family’s Oklahoma land in 1977, graduated from college through the Union for Experimenting Colleges and Universities and became the tribe’s community development director, leading the creation of community water systems and rehabilitating houses. Kidney ailments eventually required a transplant. In 1979, she was severely injured in a head-on traffic accident that killed the other driver, her best friend. Mankiller endured 17 operations during her recovery. In 1980, Mankiller came down with myasthenia gravis, a muscle disease. She later battled lymphoma and breast cancer. Throughout her illnesses, friends described her as resilient.

that one night,” Linkof said. “We’ll come back the next night and try to finish it. That’s the idea — is to spread it out and not gang up on one neighborhood for a week. We just want to make it maybe a night or two nights and be finished.” There will be no parking on streets in the construction zone, and drivers who do park in the area risk having their cars towed, according to a news release from the city. People with property in the construction zones are asked to water their lawns less frequently and keep their pets away from construction areas, according to the release. Flaggers, cones and detours signs will help direct traffic, Linkof said, but lane closures and traffic delays are expected. The paving projects are expected to create work for more than 40 people, Linkof said. “It’s putting people to work that wouldn’t be working,” Linkof said. “I know a lot of asphalt and local concrete companies have laid off quite a bit of staff, and this means they can bring quite a bit of them back.” The paving projects are expected to end April 30. Linkof said it will help save the city money in the long term, because federal money will help pay for the projects. “Our revenues have been shrinking, so this federal money is a huge shot in the arm,” he said.

An image from a Nike commercial with Tiger Woods.

Nike releases Tiger Woods commercial featuring late father NEW YORK — Nike aired a new TV commercial Wednesday featuring Tiger Woods and the voice of his late father, an edgy move that calls out his personal problems on the eve of his return to competitive golf. The ad aired on ESPN and the Golf Channel just one day before the Masters begins. In the stark, black-andwhite ad, a solemn Woods looks directly into the camera without speaking while a recording of his late father is heard, speaking about taking responsibility. “Did you learn anything?” Earl Woods says. Woods is returning to golf after a leave that followed revelations of infidelities and a stint in rehab. The ad marks the first TV ad for Woods, who had been the face of many companies, since his problems surfaced in late November. Nike Inc. is one of the few sponsors to stand by Woods during his troubles. Woods is the face of the company’s golf line and will be using its products when he plays in Augusta, Ga. today. “We support Tiger and his family. As he returns to competitive golf, the ad addresses his time away from the game using the powerful words of his father,” Nike said in a statement. — The Associated Press

Summit defeats Mountain View in match-play contest

Panthers stay perfect in CVC Bulletin staff report

Bulletin staff report They changed the format, but that did nothing to keep the Summit Storm from doing what they normally do — win. Summit, the reigning Class 5A girls golf state champion, won four of the six match-play contests Wednesday afternoon for a 4-2 team victory over Intermountain Conference rival Mountain View at Broken Top Club. The match-play format paired six golfers from each team in head-to-head competition. “I think all the girls enjoyed it,” said Summit coach Jerry Hackenbruck, who noted that a handicapping system was also used for the tournament. “(Match play) changes the game — you have to strategize quite a bit. So this was something new to them, and it was learning experience.” In the pairing of the teams’ top players, Summit’s Marlee Barton defeated Mountain View’s Kersey Wilcox by a score of 4 and 3. In the No. 2 pairing, the Storm’s Kristen Parr prevailed by the same score over the Cougars’ Hailey Ostrom. Other winners for the Storm were Madi Mansberger and Anna Schwab. Scoring victories for Mountain View were Vanessa Woolhiser and Ashley Moon. Summit is back in action Friday at the Redmond Invitational at Eagle Crest Resort. Mountain View is off until Monday, when the Cougars play in the Hermiston Invitational.

SALEM — Redmond remained unbeaten in Central Valley Conference softball play Wednesday by overpowering North Salem in both ends of a road doubleheader. The Panthers (4-0 CVC, 9-2 overall) combined for 31 hits in the sweep, and junior Justine Callen was the complete-game winning pitcher in both games. Redmond won the first game 13-2 and completed the sweep with a 10-3 victory in the second game. Callen was especially sharp in the opener, striking out eight batters while allowing just three hits in a game halted after five innings via the 10-run rule. Aubrey Nitschelm cracked a two-run homer in the fifth inning for Redmond and joined Nicole Barber with three hits in a 15-hit Panther attack. Kathleen Heiberger, Ashlie Ostrander and Callen added two hits apiece in the first-game romp. Callen smacked a solo home run in the second game, part of a four-for-five performance. Another offensive star for the Panthers in the second game was Heiberger, who had a double and two triples in five turns at bat. Also in the second game for Redmond, Cheyenne Friend was three for three and Nitschelm was two for four. The Panthers return to Salem today for a CVC game against West Salem.

C YCLING Armstrong pulls out of race with illness ANGERS, France — Lance Armstrong pulled out of the second stage of Circuit de la Sarthe because of a stomach illness and Tiago Machado of Portugal won the time trial on Wednesday. The seven-time Tour de France champion was suffering from diarrhea, vomiting and a fever, Team RadioShack spokesman Philippe Maertens said by telephone. He plans to return to the U.S. when he’s feeling better. “It’s really bad, believe me,” Maertens said. Machado won in 8 minutes, 26 seconds on the 4.2-mile course. He finished ahead of race leader Luis Leon Sanchez of Caisse d’Epargne and Anthony Roux of France. Team RadioShack released a statement Wednesday saying Armstrong had come down with a “viral intestinal infection” after the first stage Tuesday. Overnight, Armstrong wrote on his Twitter page: “Sicker than a dog now. This sucks.” Armstrong was competing in the four-day race to prepare for the Tour de France in July. — The Associated Press

VAIL, Colo. — As a Brooklyn transplant, Denver businessman Sid Wilson did not start skiing until he was 43. He took up the sport at the urging of a Colorado co-worker. Now at 65, he won’t ski anymore. “The last thing you want to do when you’re in your 50s or 60s is break something,” Wilson said. Yet the ski and snowboard industry could use more people like him: While his friends are shifting to cross-country skiing or snowshoeing as they age, Wilson still goes to ski areas regularly to foster his newer love for snowboarding. “To be my age and be able to still participate in a new venue, there’s a great ‘cool factor.’ It’s really fun,” said Wilson, who has a season pass to Echo Mountain outside Denver. Resorts have planned for at least a decade for a fast and furious decline in visits from baby boomers who helped build the industry but who will likely cut back as aching knees, hips and backs set in. Older baby boomers, now 55 to 64, started dropping out more rapidly at 54, said Nate Fristoe of the research firm RRC Associates. And now younger boomers, ages 45-54, are approaching that birthday. “It’s pretty darn urgent. Now we’re on a roller coaster that we’re just at the crest of,” Fristoe said Wednesday at an industry conference sponsored by Avon-based Resort Technology Partners. See Ski / D5

What: First major tournament of the professional golf season Where: Augusta National Golf Club, Augusta, Ga. When: Today-Sunday On TV: Today and Friday, 1 p.m., ESPN; Saturday, 12:30 p.m. and Sunday, 11 a.m. on CBS

McClatchy-Tribune News Service

AUGUSTA, Ga. — What passed for a juicy storyline last year was whether Masters officials had sapped all the joy from Augusta National with the addition of trees, a second cut of rough and 400-plus yards. Turns out, they hadn’t. Chad Campbell, for one, played his first 16 holes in 9 under par. This year’s top storyline does not involve alleged Tiger Woods mistresses named Jaime and Jaimee or Rachel and Raychel. Not directly, anyway. But the major question heading into Thursday’s opening round is simple: How will Woods play? Will a layoff that spanned the

length of the college basketball season leave him as rusty as a 20-year-old wheelbarrow? Here are other key questions:

Is the Tiger mystique a thing of the past? Jack Nicklaus dismissed that possibility, saying, “(Players) see Tiger on the leaderboard, and they start worrying about Tiger.” But others say Woods’ marital issues prove he’s human. Plus he didn’t win a major last year, got cut from the British Open and blew a final-round lead in the PGA Championship to Y.E. Yang. See Masters / D5

NHL ROUNDUP

Rangers keep playoff hopes alive, top Leafs The Associated Press NEW YORK — When the New York Rangers lost at Boston two Sundays ago, their playoff hopes were all but lost. The deficit was big, the games were few, and a road trip loomed. But the bumbling Rangers got hot. They routed the New York Islanders at home and raced to a 4-0-1 start on the sixgame trip that made believers again that a fifth straight trip to the playoffs was possible. A loss at Buffalo on Tuesday night dashed the spirits again. New York, however, shook that off one day later and began its final three-game push with a 5-1 victory over the lowly Toronto Maple Leafs on Wednesday night. All that is left on the Rangers’ schedule is a home-andhome series with Philadelphia — a team in front of them that can be caught. A pair of wins, with at least one in regulation, guarantees the Rangers a spot in the postseason. “It’s fun to be here,” said Henrik Lundqvist, who made 26 saves one night after being pulled from the game. “A couple of weeks ago I thought we were out, but we never gave up and we’re back in the race. The whole season comes down to the last two games.” Erik Christensen scored two of New York’s three first-period goals that essentially put the game away. The Rangers stormed out and seemed to take away the will of the Maple Leafs — the last-place team in the Eastern Conference. “If we can’t at least match or be more aggressive than they are, more desperate, there is something wrong,” Lundqvist said. “In the first period, we really showed what we’re fighting for here. I don’t think they were really ready for it.” Christensen gave New York the lead 21 seconds in, then combined with Vinny Prospal for goals 30 seconds apart. Although the Rangers wouldn’t have been eliminated with a loss, their prospects would have been all but dashed. “It’s good to come back after getting spanked,” said Christensen, who didn’t finish the game after getting his wind knocked out in the third period. “Everyone had a solid effort in a game we had to win.” Also on Wednesday: Blackhawks. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 6 Blues. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 5 CHICAGO — Duncan Keith, Ben Eager, Bryan Bickell and Kris Versteeg scored in a 3:08 span in the first period in Chicago’s fifth straight victory.

Butler could do it again — if everyone comes back By Michael Marot The Associated Press

INDIANAPOLIS — Butler wants the sequel to be better than the original. All it needs is the same cast and a new ending. Less than 15 hours after losing Monday night’s NCAA title game, the Bulldogs were back in Hinkle Fieldhouse and already pondering another made-for-TV script next season — if they can keep Gordon Hayward and coach Brad Stevens. “We’ve got to have the same mindset,” Matt Howard said. “You can’t let things get to your head. You can’t not work anymore. You’ve just got to keep doing the things that you have been. Our system works well. That’s been proven over the last couple games.” Or the entire remarkable season. From Christmas to Easter, Butler (33-5) didn’t lose a game. It was America’s only league champ to finish with a perfect conference record and had a 25-game winning streak. The Bulldogs took down Syracuse, Kansas State and Michigan State and came within a bounce of taking out Duke in the closest title game in two decades. Most people never gave the undersized guys from the 4,200-student school a chance. Many didn’t even know Butler was located 5.6 miles from the Final Four venue until they actually made it to Lucas Oil Stadium. Things will never be the same in this oldschool program, and people are already asking the obvious question: Can Butler do it again? “You could have great teams and never do this again,” Stevens said. “It’s as much about taking advantage of opportunities in 40-minute games as anything else. You know, there’s going to be a lot of 25- and 30-win teams that never play for a national championship.” But the Bulldogs have one advantage the big boys don’t — continuity. If Hayward returns, the Bulldogs will have four of their starting five back. And with only a couple of BCS jobs open, the Bulldogs just

Amy Sancetta / The Associated Press

Butler’s hopes of duplicating this season’s NCAA tourney run next season may hinge on the return of Gordon Hayward. might keep their 33-year-old coach, too. Hayward, this season’s Horizon League player of the year, has been moving rapidly up NBA draft boards. Some projections have him going in the first 15 picks, a major accomplishment for a school that has never produced an NBA player. With millions of dollars at stake, the 6-foot9 forward with the point guard skills doesn’t have to look any further than West Lafayette to understand the risk of returning. Purdue forward Robbie Hummel tore his ACL in February and missed the rest of the season, an injury that

may have kept the Boilermakers out of the Final Four. Hummel will spend months recuperating, hoping he can be his old self sometime next season. Hayward also genuinely enjoys being around these teammates and his twin sister, Heather, who plays tennis for the Bulldogs. He also has some unfinished business. A return could put Hayward in the discussion for national player of the year, make him a top-five pick and, perhaps, end with a national title. It’s a lot to ponder. “I haven’t thought about it yet, I still haven’t talked to my dad,” Hayward said. “I don’t know even what the time table will be.” Stevens’ decision will be watched just as closely. Oregon is expected to throw a multimillion dollar offer at him soon, the Clemson job opened Tuesday when Oliver Purnell left for DePaul, and Wake Forest began looking for a new coach after parting with Dino Gaudio on Wednesday. All of those jobs would presumably pay Stevens more than the $750,000 total package he had with the Bulldogs this season. If Hayward and Stevens both return, the Bulldogs would only lose two key contributors off this year’s squad: starting forward Willie Veasley and backup center Avery Jukes. They will get bigger with two new power forwards, 6-9 Erik Fromm and 6-7 Khyle Marshall, who is rated among the top 25 at his position by Rivals.com. Butler will be more athletic with the addition of 6-1 guard Chrishawn Hopkins, too. That means the Bulldogs will be deeper and more experienced, and that combination could be enough for the Bulldogs to make it back to the Final Four and maybe even the championship game — if Hayward and Stevens return and they stay true to their principles. “We’re going to have to be ready every single night,” Howard said. “You’re going to have a target on your back, especially if we return all four of the guys that could be coming back.”

NBA SCOREBOARD SUMMARIES

Basketball • Officials blew call in Thunder-Jazz game: The NBA announced Wednesday officials missed a foul in the final seconds of Utah’s overtime victory over Oklahoma City the previous night. “On the final play of last night’s Oklahoma City-Utah game, the officials missed a foul committed by the Jazz’s C.J. Miles on the Thunder’s Kevin Durant during a three-point shot attempt,” NBA president of league and basketball operations Joel Litvin said in a statement. Deron Williams’ jumper with 1.1 seconds left in overtime gave Utah a 140-139 lead and Miles clinched the win with a block on Durant’s shot at the buzzer. • Raptors’ Bosh has surgery: Toronto AllStar forward Chris Bosh had surgery to repair a facial fracture suffered during a freakish oncourt accident. The Raptors said Bosh had a displaced nasal fracture repaired during an operation performed Wednesday. Bosh will remain in the hospital overnight, and it’s unknown when he will return to Canada or whether he will play again this season. The Raptors have a one-game lead over Chicago for the final spot in the Eastern Conference playoffs with five games left. Bosh is averaging 24.3 points and 11 rebounds per game. • Paul out for season: New Orleans Hornets star Chris Paul will miss the remainder of the season because of a ligament tear in the middle finger of his right hand. Paul has been struggling with the injury for several games, but appeared to aggravate it further in practice on Tuesday. Team officials say no surgery is required. • Five Wildcats heading to NBA: Freshman All-Americans John Wall and DeMarcus Cousins are among five Kentucky players who have declared for the NBA draft. Junior forward Patrick Patterson, freshman guard Eric Bledsoe and freshman center Daniel Orton are also entering the draft. Wall and Cousin are expected to be among the first few players selected. The five player comprised the core of a team that went 35-3 this season and won the Southeastern Conference regular season and conference tournament titles before falling to West Virginia in the regional finals of the NCAA Tournament.

Blazers move up in West with win The Associated Press LOS ANGELES — Even after the Portland Trail Blazers moved up two spots in the Western Conference playoff picture with a single victory, LaMarcus Aldridge and Brandon Roy claimed they don’t care who they’ll face in the first round of the playoffs. After all, the way they’re finishing the regular season, it’s clear the Blazers could be big trouble for anybody. Aldridge had 27 points and 12 rebounds, Roy added 23 points and the Blazers ascended to sixth place in the playoff standings with a 93-85 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers on Wednesday night. Andre Miller scored 13 points for the Blazers, who began the night in eighth place before their 11th win in 13 games. After holding off the Clippers’ late rally, Portland improved to 48-30, pulling even with Oklahoma City and San Antonio, which both lost. “We feel like if we finish out strong, we could easily go to sixth,” Aldridge said. “But it doesn’t really matter. Every series is going to be hard, but you have to finish strong for your own sake, not for who you play.” The Blazers already know they’re headed back to the playoffs for the second straight season after a fiveyear absence, but Roy doesn’t think his teammates are looking ahead. “All we’ll do is keep playing, and when the official standings come out, we’ll figure out what we have to do,” Roy said. “You can’t be worried about where you match up or who you want to play.” Aldridge missed practice Tuesday with a sinus infection, but played with a clear head against the Clippers, scoring from everywhere on the court against a succession of defenders. Roy missed Portland’s last two workouts with a sore back, but he kept the Blazers rolling early before scoring just two fourth-quarter points. With five games in eight days to close the regular season, Portland let the easiest matchup get far too interesting. The Blazers managed just 16 points and didn’t shoot a free throw in the fourth quarter, but Juwan Howard and Miller had big baskets in the final 90 seconds of their 16th win in 20 games. Although just three games separate second place from eighth in the West playoff standings, Portland coach Nate McMillan said he isn’t rushing off the court every night to check the standings. He’s well aware of the Blazers’ need for a strong finish to avoid facing the Lakers in the first round, although the defending champions aren’t playing nearly as well as the four teams below them in the standings. Marcus Camby had two points and nine rebounds for the Blazers before straining his right hamstring in the second half of the former Clippers shot-blocker’s first game back in Los Angeles. Camby said he only sat out as a precaution, and he plans to practice today. Portland scored 10 straight points midway through the third quarter to take a 71-54 lead, and led 81-60 early in the fourth quarter. Led by Butler and Blake, Los Angeles made runs of 13-2 and 8-2 to get within 89-81 before Portland put the game away.

PREP ROUNDUP

Cougars lose close ones on the track SO CLOSE

Bulletin staff report Despite the absence of a number of their strongest competitors, the Mountain View boys stayed close Wednesday in an Intermountain Conference track and field dual meet against The Dalles-Wahtonka. The Cougars were beaten on their home track, 73.5-71.5. The girls half of the meet was closer still, The Dalles-Wahtonka winning by a single point, 72.5-71.5. Several underclassmen posted first-place finishes for the Cougar boys, including freshman Mitch Modin, who won the 400-meter race in 55.34 seconds. Senior Solomon Helms took first in both the 110-meter hurdles (16.42 seconds) and the long jump (20 feet, 8 inches). Senior Kenny Bent added wins in the high jump (6-2) and in the triple jump (42-9.5). Mountain View head coach Dave Hood said he was also impressed with sophomore Dylan Johnson’s winning discus throw of 139 feet. On the girls side, Hopper Cashman’s mark of 105-11 in discus proved good enough for first place for the Cougars. Danika Noel notched another win for Mountain View with her mark of 93-0 in javelin.

Crook County’s Trevor Brown scored a straight-sets win over Matt Laranetta in the No. 1 singles match, and the Cowboys’ Zac Thompson and Brady Slater came from behind to beat Kevin Kyger and Matt VanHemelryck in three games at No. 1 doubles. Winners for Mountain View included Mason Marel and Nolan King in singles, and the team of Nick Nizinski and Eric Watson in doubles.

Summit’s Kristen Parr reacts after missing a shot on the ninth hole while playing Broken Top Club Wednesday in a match against Mountain View. Summit won the contest. See story, Page D1. Genna Miller gave the Panthers (1-1-1 Central Valley Conference, 2-1-1 overall) a win at No. 1 singles and teammates Abby Cranston and Leslie Teater scored a win at No. 4 doubles. Against West Salem Redmond fared better, with wins from Megan McGinty and Chloe Woodward at No. 3 doubles and Leslie Teater and Abby Cranston at No. 4 doubles.

laws came out swinging in their Sky-Em League opener against Junction City, scoring eight runs in three innings and shutting out the Tigers in the six-inning contest. Sisters pitcher Dara Kosanke registered nine strikeouts and gave up only two hits. Leading the Outlaws on offense were Kosanke, Taylor Walker, Carly Kreminski and Amber Milliman, each posting run-scoring doubles. The win boosted the Outlaws to 7-2 overall and 1-0 in league.

Redmond trailed 7-2 in the fourth inning, but sophomore Daulton Hanks’ grand slam kept the Panthers in the game until the Vikings broke it open in the seventh with a fiverun uprising. Redmond pitcher Brian Follick put the Panthers back on track in the second game and held the Vikings to two runs on six hits. J.D. Abbas relieved in the sixth inning to earn the save. Redmond was led at the plate by Christian Welsh, who was two for four, and Cory Lucas, who was two for three.

Jordan Hodges scored the game-ending run on a bases-loaded walk to Eric Carlson with two outs in the bottom of the fifth. Hodges hit a two-run double earlier in the inning, and Brandon Morgan also had a two-run single in the decisive rally. Hodges finished three for four at the plate with three RBIs. Morgan was the winning pitcher, allowing four hits over five innings. Chase Kleint was two for two for Sisters (1-0 SkyEm, 8-1 overall). TRACK AND FIELD Bend defeats Crook County in relay event The host Lava Bears defeated Crook County 60-10 in the coed Bruin Relays meet. The low-key meet included unconventional races such as the shuttle hurdles: a 60-meter course run by each competitor of a coed four-person team. Crook County win the all-girls 800-meter relay (divided by distances of 100, 300 and 400 meters) in a time of 2 minutes, 5 seconds. The Cowgirls’ Tasha Stever clocked a fast split time of 1:05 in the 400-meter leg. Crook County also took the win in the 4-x-200 relay in 1:48. Bend competitors won the remaining events. Among the Lava Bears posting impressive marks, according to Bend coach Matt Craven, was Caleb Buzzas, with a winning 43-foot triple jump and a winning long jump of 22 feet, 1 inch. Bend’s J.C. Grim placed first in both the javelin (158 feet) and the high jump (6-2).

Ski Continued from D1 Despite a 12-year-old campaign to get snow-sport newcomers to take lessons and become avid mountaingoers, the conversion rate from newbie to active participant has risen only from about 15 percent since 1999 to about 16.7 percent today, according to RRC’s research. Women are dropping out faster than men around age 40, Fristoe said, which in turn can affect vacation plans for the whole family.

In the midst of those shifts is a slumping economy that helped dampen skier visits to 57.3 million last season, down from a record 60.5 million or so in the 2007-2008 season, according to the National Ski Areas Association. For now, the industry is still in the sweet spot of attracting baby boomers and their children, said Vail Resorts Inc. CEO Chris Jarnot. In fact, skier visits nationwide have routinely been about 57 million for the last decade. Yet there are shifts. Destination resorts like Aspen or Vail in Colorado have watched boomers fall in love with a mountain, make

a tradition of bringing their families there every year, and maybe even buy property nearby, Jarnot said. “I think that pattern is going to die with that generation,” Jarnot said. Younger generations are looking for diverse, novel, extreme experiences, which might mean resorts reconnecting with visitors every four or five years, instead of every year, he said. Customers under age 30 are also more culturally and ethnically diverse and may have other ideas for vacation besides ski resorts, Fristoe said. “For years, the infrastructure was set up to appeal to the 55-year-old white

Continued from D1 “Guys don’t see his name (on the leaderboard) now and say, ‘It’s over,’” two-time PGA Tour winner Hunter Mahan said. “In 2000, when they saw his name, it was over.” Even Woods said winning isn’t everything — or the only thing. “It’s not about championships,” he said Monday. “It’s about how you live your life.”

Will a hangover afflict several of the favorites? The Houston Open prides itself on Augusta-like conditions that make for a perfect warm-up event. But several big names hope their play in Houston is not a predictor of things to come. Ernie Els tied for 44th. Phil Mickelson shot a second-round 76. And Padraig Harrington closed with a 77. Ugh. Steve Stricker, in his final Masters preamble, slogged through a 79-74 weekend at Bay Hill. “My focus was not good,” Stricker said. “Hopefully I got those shots out of my system.”

Can Fred Couples pull a Watson? Tom Watson came within one stroke of winning the British Open at 59. Perhaps that’s why people are giving Couples, 50, a legitimate chance this week. That, and he still hits it a mile. Many of his drives rolled within a few feet of Woods’ during their practice round Monday. And Couples has won three times in four starts this season on the Champions Tour. “He’s coming into this tour-

nament with championship trophies under his belt, holding on to these big, glass, crystal things, as well as huge checks,” Mickelson said. Couples’ take? The 1992 champion said winning would be a “pipe dream.”

Who will be the low Molinari brother? Edoardo has the height, a 3-inch edge over younger brother Francesco, who stands 5-foot-8. Francesco, 27, is also shorter off the tee. “But he hits a lot of fairways and greens,” Edoardo, 29, said recently. Whatever the edge in skills, the Molinaris will become the first brothers to compete together at Augusta National since Jumbo and Joe Ozaki in 2000. There have been 26 other sibling rivalries on display during the Masters.

Could the weather be a factor? Indeed. It’s expected to rain tonight. That could make the course play even longer than usual and spell trouble for relatively short knockers such as Stricker, Luke Donald and Mike Weir. Was Tiger serious about dialing down his emotions? Woods said as a consequence of being more respectful to the game — i.e. fewer flying clubs and f-bombs — he will try to “not get as hot” when he plays. “I’m not going to be as exuberant, either,” he said. “I’ve made a conscious decision to try to tone down my negative outbursts, and consequently, I’m sure my positive outbursts will be calmed down as well.” So, have we seen the last Woods fist pump? “No, no, no,” Woods pal Mark O’Meara said. “He’s still going to show some emotion.”

Solid season has Big Easy at ease ahead of Masters By Nancy Armour The Associated Press

AUGUSTA, Ga. — Ernie Els shook hands with fans between holes, and stopped to take a picture with one on his way up the 17th fairway. He even posed with a “Flat Stanley” as he made his way to the putting green. Don’t make too big a deal of it, but the Big Easy is feeling mighty at ease at this Masters. “I don’t want to get too overconfident,” Els said Wednesday at the Par-3 tournament. “But at least I’ve brought a little game here.” That’s a bit of an understatement. The three-time major champion comes to Augusta National playing his best golf in years. He ended a two-year drought at the World Golf Championship at Doral, then became the tour’s only double winner two weeks later with a victory at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. It was the first time Els had won backto-back tournaments in seven years. He has four top-10 finishes in his eight PGA Tour starts this year, and has climbed to eighth in the world rankings, up nine spots from where he finished last season. “I haven’t been in this kind of form coming in here for many years,” Els said. Not that it’s drawn much notice. Els, Steve Stricker, Anthony Kim — no one is getting anything more than a cursory glance with Tiger Woods playing his first tournament since the shocking sex scandal that turned the world’s most famous athlete into tabloid fodder. Even defending Masters champion Angel Cabrera was able to walk by a group of reporters without being stopped Tuesday. They

male,” Fristoe said. Things are changing, though. In the last decade, more resorts have embraced snowboarding, added terrain parks and boosted offerings beyond skiing, for instance with summer mountain biking. Blue Mountain Ski Area in Palmerton, Pa., is considering getting into the water-park business, CEO Barbara Green said. Vail Resorts has started offering guided skiing for groups, so customers can still ride the mountains like a local without shelling out big bucks for individual private lessons. Customer service is key, and so is

Masters chairman scolds Tiger AUGUSTA, Ga. — On the day Tiger Woods arrived at the Masters, he changed out of his spikes after playing nine holes, walked across the parking lot and went upstairs to the office of Augusta National chairman Billy Payne. Payne would not discuss details of their Sunday afternoon meeting. Based on his blunt criticism of Woods during his annual press conference Wednesday, they probably weren’t talking about how Woods was hitting the ball or his chances of winning a fifth green jacket. “It is simply not the degree of his conduct that is so egregious here,” Payne said. “It is the fact that he disappointed all of us, and more importantly, our kids and our grandkids. Our hero did not live up to the expectations of the role model we saw for our children.” — The Associated Press

were all too busy keeping an eye out for Mark O’Meara, Woods’ playing partner Tuesday and Wednesday. “People are not going to be talking about who’s in form until probably Thursday morning when we start the event,” Els, who didn’t make the cut for the formal pre-tournament interviews, said after his win at Bay Hill. “It’s going to be all about Tiger and him coming back and everything. So I think we will all be sideshows until Thursday morning. And I think we’re fine with that. Everybody is fine with that.”

grooming for families, resorts said. And there is room for growth, said Mt. Hood Meadows Ski Resort CEO Matthew Drake, who expects low, double-digit percentage growth in skier visits this season, thanks to good snow. His region of the Pacific Northwest places a strong value on outdoor recreation over sitting on the couch. “The snow-sports industry can do a lot to improve the health of the nation, get folks out improving their fitness with family and friends,” Drake said. That sounds about right to Wilson. “It’s no fun to go up and just watch other people ski,” he said.

FLY-TYING CORNER By Gary Lewis For The Bulletin

The Hemingway Special (aka Hemingway Caddis and Sheralee’s Speckled Sedge) was originated by Sheralee and Mike Lawson in the 1970s to imitate an adult caddis. The Lawsons named the pattern in honor of Jack Hemingway, the noted writer and conservationist. This is a tent-wing style caddis fly great for fishing slow-moving streams where the trout have a long time to examine a fly before they sip it in. Carry this pattern in several variations to match hatches on different streams. Tied in black, it can represent a caddis or a little black stone. Apply dry fly floatant and fish with a long leader to rising fish. To get the fly to present a lower-profile, trim the underside hackle. Tie the Hemingway Special with thread to match the body on a No. 12-18 TMC 100. Build the body with Superfine or Antron dubbing, wrapped with a medium hackle. Tie in an underwing of wood duck flank fibers. For the wings, use mallard quill segments tied tentstyle. Tie a thorax of peacock herl and finish with a medium hackle.

Steelhead Continued from D1 On the Sandy, with a boat to carry the load, I expected Campbell to come wellarmed. He was, with graphite spinning rods, casting rods and a 1970s vintage Garcia fiberglass stick sporting a Zebco Cardinal 4. Rigged with spoons, drift gear or floats, each rod was ready for action. Not to be outdone, Hambly brought five of his own rods. I laid my spinning setup next to a dozen other rods and looked to my perch. A pontoon boat is not properly classified as a boat, in my opinion. Rather, it’s a modern version of Tom Sawyer’s raft. Hambly, who has launched some wellknown anglers from the front seats of his craft, warned me: “When we start down through the whitewater, you’re going to want to hang on to the boat. I’ll show you where Dave Eng and my dad went in the river. That day was a lot colder than this one.” You put your feet on an aluminum bar, wedge your rear into the seat and try not to look down, because there is no floor. We donned our life jackets and pointed downstream into the rollers. A big wave came over the pontoon and drenched me to the eyebrows. A halfgallon of 43-degree snowmelt went down the front of my waders. Ah yes, that Harry Whitewater. Know him well. We drifted beneath the big green pipeline and pulled in to the bank, river left. Campbell handed me a Lamiglas rigged with a Thill float and a pearl leadhead jig threaded through a bubblegum-pink plastic worm. A tactic responsible for the undoing of many a British Columbia sea-run rainbow, fishing pink plastic under a float has become fashionable on rivers in the western United States. I had employed smaller versions of the bait for resident rainbows, but never for steelhead. “Let’s let Lewis get the first fish,” Campbell said. “Stand there,” he pointed. “The fish will be between that rock and the riffle.” I love it when people talk

Jason Hambly, of Troutdale, battles a bright hatchery fish in the shallows while fishing the Sandy River last week. to me that way. Third cast, as far as I could throw it. The line swept down on the surface current in a large belly and I lifted the rod tip for an upstream mend. My float went down, straight down, out of sight. When I swept the rod up and over my head, a fish rolled — a flash of silver in green water. After a few minutes, I guided a 7pound native into the shallows. The pink worm trailed out of her mouth. For a moment we admired the fish, then we watched her kick away. Downstream, in a long, deep run, Hambly stood on a high rock and cast across, feathering the inside of an unseen ledge. When he set the hook, a husky hatchery fish flashed. Five minutes later, Hambly brought the 8-pound female to hand. One for the freezer. We paddled to the far bank and worked the ledge from a different angle. My float plunged. Three head-shakes later, the line broke at the knot and the last thing I saw of that fish was the pink worm in its jaw and a broad tail that broke the surface as it turned away. Campbell’s first fish took a pink Okie

Drifter with white yarn in the tailout of a long run. This one was fresh, chrome, probably 10 days out of Astoria. Campbell played it skillfully to keep Harry Whitewater from claiming it in the rapids. We bounced over submerged boulders, through rock gardens and narrow chutes where the water stood tall. “That’s where Dave and my dad went in the river,” Hambly said. I held on, not wishing to have my name added to the local lore. Seven fish for eight hookups. The only thing better than catching steelhead in winter is catching winter steelhead in late March and early April. When the snowmelt runs cold, and those chrome and rainbow rockets charge upstream to their ancestral spawning grounds, bubblegum pink is my favorite color.

FISHING REPORT

Fall River offers best fly angling in the region Here is the weekly fishing report for selected areas in and around Central Oregon as provided by Oregon Fish and Wildlife Department fisheries biologists: CENTRAL ZONE ANTELOPE FLAT RESERVOIR: Closed to angling through May 21, 2010. The reservoir will be restocked with catchable rainbow trout in May of 2010. CRESCENT LAKE: Boat launching access to the lake is available at the Crescent Lake Lodge. There is currently good opportunity for lake trout and brown trout. CROOKED RIVER BELOW BOWMAN DAM: Fishing has been excellent. Population estimates from 2009 show an increase in redband populations and a decrease in whitefish populations; fishing is good. Dry fly action is increasing; however, nymphs are still providing the most success. Flows on the Crooked River are currently 77cfs. DESCHUTES RIVER (Mouth to the northern boundary of the Warm Springs Reservation): Anglers can advantage of these early spring-like days by targeting trout with dry flies. Look for blue-winged olive and caddis hatches during mid-day. Stonefly nymphs will also start getting more active, and fish

will certainly start keying in on them. DESCHUTES RIVER (Lake Billy Chinook to Benham Falls): No recent reports. The flows are now well-suited for fishing. This reach of the Deschutes provides winter angling opportunity for brown trout and redband trout. Please note this reach of river is restricted to the use of flies and lures only. FALL RIVER: Fall River above the falls remains open to fly angling only. Probably the best fly fishing in the region right now with good hatches of bluewing olive, midges and tan caddis. HAYSTACK RESERVOIR: Spring is often the best time to fish for 12 to 18-inch rainbow and brown trout in Haystack Reservoir. Trolling is the most effective method, however, bank anglers are often successful near the dam and fishing platform. HOOD RIVER: Flows are good on the Hood River with good numbers of winter steelhead being caught by anglers. Spring weather has been warming the Hood and increasing catch rates as the water warms. The peak of the winter steelhead run on the Hood will be the end of March and beginning of April. LAKE BILLY CHINOOK: The Metolius Arm is open. Angler effort has been light. Several legal-sized bull trout (greater than 24inches) have been caught, but most bull trout being reported are in

the 16 to 20-inch range. METOLIUS RIVER: Fishing has been up and down but is generally good. There have been strong hatches of blue-wing olive and October caddis, with a few March Browns as well. The mainstem Metolius upstream from Allingham Bridge is currently closed to angling. OCHOCO CREEK UPSTREAM TO OCHOCO DAM: Anglers should continue to consider lunchtime outings, as hatches are strong in the noon hour. Anglers should be aware that beginning in 2010 new fishing regulations go into effect that permanently restricts fishing to artificial flies and lures only; two trout per day and 8-inch minimum length. OCHOCO RESERVOIR: Shore fishing has been good between the boat ramp and the dam. Opportunities for 12 to 20-inch rainbow trout should improve with the warmer weather. PRINEVILLE RESERVOIR: No recent reports. PRINEVILLE YOUTH FISHING POND: The Prineville Youth Fishing Pond is temporarily closed for repairs. SUTTLE LAKE: No recent angler reports, though the lake is accessible and fishable. TAYLOR LAKE: Taylor Lake has been stocked with rainbow trout and should

offer a great opportunity to catch trout this winter. WALTON LAKE: Closed to angling through May 21, 2010. The reservoir will be restocked with catchable rainbow trout

in May of 2010. The boat ramp and campground will remain closed for repairs until fall 2010. Please contact Ochoco National Forest at 541-4166500 for more information.

Winter shows its face on high trails By David Jasper The Bulletin

After struggling to get a foothold this season, winter seems to be gaining ground, at least at the middle and higher elevations. That’s according to Deschutes National Forest Trails Specialist Chris Sabo, who said winter trail conditions have improved greatly. The area west of U.S. Highway 97 is experiencing “probably some of the best winter conditions we have had all winter,” he said. “Probably 5 feet, 6 feet (of snow) up in the high country … over the last week.” Dutchman Flat is seeing very good conditions for motorized and nonmotorized users, while use has dropped off substantially, a trend that will likely continue as spring attempts to advance. Trail users who do venture up should not let their guard down where avalanche risk is concerned. Sabo recommends users “do their avalanche assessments along the way. With this new snow, there’s likely some instability layers deep in the snowpack from earlier in the winter.” Deschutes County has begun plowing operations along Cascade Lakes Highway, an effort that has reached Elk Lake from the south and is proceeding north toward Devils Lake. Sabo said snowmobilers should travel no further south than Elk Lake for the remainder of the season. See Trails / E6

By Betsy Q. Cliff The Bulletin

fter a week of nasty weather, cabin fever had taken hold at my house last weekend. If we didn’t leave the house soon, both my husband and I were going to go crazy. The problem: We have a 6-month-old son. As much as I was resisting bundling myself up in snow gear (in April!) I was even less excited to bundle him up, too. But the dog needed to run and we needed to get out. So we bundled. And we got in the car and headed up to Tumalo Falls. Hiking with a baby brings challenges, for sure. First, there’s the hassle factor. Because we didn’t know exactly what the conditions would be when we got to the trail, we tried our best to be prepared for whatever weather we found. We made sure we packed extra bottles, extra toys and extra clothes. Then, there’s the issue of expec-

My husband and I have never been hard-core trail rats, but we try to find easier hikes now than we did pre-baby. To keep hiking enjoyable for kids at any age, Dr. Rick Cuddihy, a pediatrician at Bend Memorial Clinic, suggests being conservative in where you go and how long you plan to be gone. Take what you would typically do and “divide by two,” he said, “in terms of distance and hours out.” We decided to tromp around in the snow near the Tumalo Falls. We didn’t think we’d make it all the way to the falls, a four-mile trip out and back, so we decided to pack our snowshoes and wander near Tumalo Creek. See Outing / E6

When adopting a pet, Cranston’s turn as a drug trader is rewardingly dark older is often better By Greg Braxton Los Angeles Times

Dear Abby: We are seniors like “Thinking About Adopting in Las Vegas” (Feb. 2), who wants to adopt a dog. He may find it difficult to adopt one, especially since big hearts and lots of love and patience many times aren’t considered “enough” today. We were denied every dog we wanted to adopt until a volunteer at Petfinder.com advised us that considering our ages, we should adopt a senior dog. We took their advice and have been blessed with 9-year-old Benji for almost a year. Puppies are like grandchildren — full of love, but they can leave us seniors exhausted. Senior dogs nap, are more mellow than puppies and are usually housebroken. If that man outlives his dog, he’ll know he gave his precious little one a good home and lots of love. If Petfinder is in his area, they will make sure your little one is adopted into the perfect home — not just “any” home. — Benji’s Parents In Washington State Dear Benji’s Parents: Thank you for supporting the adoption of older dogs. Readers provided some doggone good resources for adopting — or acting as a foster parent — for an abandoned or abused dog. Read on: Dear Abby: In most states people can now create a trust for their pet. They can put funds into it and, in this way, benefit their pet by naming a trustee and caretaker to assure it will be taken care of until it passes away. In the trust they can state all their wishes, as singer Dusty Springfield did in stating she wanted her dog fed only imported baby food, its bed lined with her nightgowns and her records played when it went to sleep. — Marc S. In Cleveland Dear Abby: Most Humane Societies now offer a “senior for

DEAR ABBY senior” discount where a qualified senior citizen can adopt a senior companion animal, usually 7 years old or older, with all the fees waived. Please tell “Thinking” that he can find what he’s looking for in companionship, and a middle-aged or older dog that would usually be passed up at the pound will get a new leash on life. — Tanna, Diamond Bar, Calif. Dear Abby: Many dog rescues need kind, loving foster homes for abused and abandoned animals who are awaiting adoption. It is hard to give up a dog after you have fostered and taken care of it for a while, and you do have the option of adopting it yourself, but believe me, this is definitely a worthwhile cause. When you take in a foster, their eyes are dull. But after receiving love and attention from a caregiver, those eyes sparkle and you know you have done something wonderful. — Jillie In Humble, Texas Dear Abby: After practicing as a vet for 35 years, may I offer a suggestion to your readers? Wonderful older pets are put to sleep every day at shelters across the country. These pets are usually house-trained, leash-trained, calm and eager for love and attention. Puppies (and kittens), on the other hand, need constant attention, training and activity. Visit a pet shelter, and you may find your “perfect” companion patiently waiting for your love. — Ken Cohn, Tucson, Ariz. Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby .com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

LOS ANGELES — It’s a tough job, and Bryan Cranston is more than glad to do it — playing Walter H. White, the frazzled antihero at the center of AMC’s “Breaking Bad,” that is. Though playing White, a meek chemistry teacher who gradually transforms into a hard-core drug dealer after he finds out he has life-threatening cancer, is “a dream come true,” Cranston pointed out that the character and the series’ increasingly dark tones have taken an emotional and physical toll on him. “At the end of the day, I take two moist towels, put them on my head and wash all of Walt’s energy off of me, and leave him at work,” Cranston said, sighing heavily. After decades of being mostly relegated to guest shots and supporting roles in TV and film, the actor has found a breakout role in AMC’s “Breaking Bad.” Cranston was previously best known as the buffoonish father on “Malcolm in the Middle,” but “Breaking” has scored him two consecutive Emmys for outstanding actor in a drama series, an achievement that has propelled him to the top tier of TV dramatic actors. And the character of White, whose initial rationale for getting into the drug trade was to give his family a financial foundation after he died, now joins a gallery of prominent antiheroes such as gangster Tony Soprano (“The Sopranos”), corrupt detective Vic Mackey (“The Shield”) and advertising hotshot Don Draper (“Mad Men”) at the center of complex dramas. Additionally, the show has established on AMC, which also airs “Mad Men,”

Bryan Cranston stars in his Emmywinning role as the drug-dealing ex-teacher in AMC’s “Breaking Bad.” Before playing Walter White, Cranston played Hal the dad on “Malcolm in the Middle.”

as a venue for quality original programming. In its third-season premiere this month, the series drew its largest audience ever, attracting more than 3 million viewers. “Breaking Bad” has grown consistently darker as creator Vince Gilligan maps out what he calls White’s journey from “Mr. Chips to Scarface.” Cranston, who directed the season opener, says he is particularly excited about the upcoming episodes: Even though he had his doubts when “Breaking Bad” started that it would work, he now has total confidence in its direction. “What made me want to do this in the beginning was the notion of taking a character and completely changing him from one kind of person to another,” he said last week while relaxing in the immaculately tasteful San Fernando Valley home he shares with his wife, actress Robin Dearden, and their young daughter. He added, “That’s never happened on TV before. I knew

we would have to find a way to make this man sympathetic. If we didn’t make him relatable or identifiable to the majority of the audience, we wouldn’t have a show. His actions are indefensible. All we were hoping for was to get an understanding of why he’s doing this, not to condone his actions.” Still, despite the critical ac-

claim surrounding “Breaking Bad,” Cranston and its cast, including Aaron Paul, Anna Gunn and Dean Norris, catching the cultural zeitgeist has been more elusive than it has been for other A-list dramas such as “The Sopranos,” “Mad Men” or “The West Wing.” Entertainment-oriented magazines have passed him by for covers. Though “Mad Men’s” Jon Hamm and January Jones, who have not won Emmys, have hosted “Saturday Night Live,” Cranston has not gotten the call. Gilligan, who praised Cranston as a solid and “courageous” actor, said he is mystified: “Bryan truly deserves to be more noticed. He is much more a chameleon than most actors, and he truly disappears into his role. “Perhaps it’s that quality that has kept him from getting more covers or things like that. Hopefully that will change because he can absolutely do anything. If he hosted ‘Saturday Night Live,’ he would hit it out of the park.”

Jon: Kate ignores kids for ‘Dancing’ By Michael Rubinkam The Associated Press

ALLENTOWN, Pa. — Jon Gosselin plans to sue ex-wife Kate for primary custody of their eight children because her appearances on “Dancing With the Stars” have turned her into an absentee mom, a lawyer for the former reality show dad told The Associated Press on Tuesday. Jon Gosselin’s new lawyer, Anthony List, said he plans to file papers in Berks County Court in Pennsylvania this week to reopen their divorce settlement. List said that Kate Gosselin’s participation in the smash ABC dance competition show has taken her away from the children, and that she has delegated most child-rearing responsibilities to three nannies. “Without a doubt, she’s an absentee parent,” he said. Kate Gosselin’s attorney, Mark Momjian, called the allegation reckless and “patently false.” “It’s deplorable to make a comment like that,” he said. “I know Kate Gosselin is all about her

children, and she’s always been about her children. Let him file what he says he’s going to file and we’ll respond accordingly.” The two formerly starred on the hit TLC reality show “Jon & Kate Plus 8,” which chronicled the lives of the Gosselins and their large brood — twins and sextuplets — at their home in eastern Pennsylvania. The show ended its run in November, and their divorce became final in December. The no-fault divorce settlement gave Kate Gosselin primary custody of the children and the family home in Wernersville, Pa., about 50 miles northwest of Philadelphia. List said Kate Gosselin has been pursuing her career at the expense of the children. “If she’s truly committed and dedicated to these children, as I believe she is, then she should open her eyes and see what’s happening to these children,” List said. “Their life is topsy-turvy. Jon can give them stability.”

AG says Haim obtained 553 pills before death By Anthony McCartney The Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — Actor Corey Haim employed “doctor shopping” to obtain 553 prescription pills in the two months before his death, California Attorney General Jerry Brown said Tuesday. Haim obtained the meds, which included Valium, Vicodin, Corey Haim Xanax and Soma, through seven different doctors and seven pharmacies, Brown said, and he used an alias on at least one occasion. Brown said it did not appear the doctors knew Haim was ob-

taining prescriptions through multiple sources. He said investigators verified Haim filled the prescriptions this year, but have also found that thousands of pills were obtained in Haim’s name before then. He called Haim — the star of 1980s films such as “The Lost Boys” and “License to Drive” — a “poster child” for prescription drug abuse. He said that it wasn’t just celebrities who were obtaining massive quantities of prescription drugs through doctor-shopping. Haim, 38, died March 10 after collapsing in his mother’s apartment. Haim struggled with drugs throughout his life. He was also suffering from flulike symptoms before his death and his official cause of death has not been released.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Thursday, April 8, 2010: This year, often you will choose to be with your friends. You also could become far more civicminded, and get involved in an important cause. Be careful not to spread yourself too thin. On some level, you revitalize through letting go and being with your friends. Learn to be more frugal than in the past, especially as you will need to counteract a tendency to overspend. If you are single, a new relationship could come through a friend. If you are attached, the two of you need to have a solid friendship as well. Treat each other as your best friend more often. You can count on AQUARIUS. 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) HHHH Aries generally is directed, but today you will tend to linger and over-indulge. You wonder what is going on. Perhaps you need to take a break. Do something just for you, even if it is just getting a haircut. Help yourself recycle. Tonight: Where the action is. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH Be aware of your efforts to court the boss’s or someone else’s favor. Is it worth it? Your instincts tell you which way to go, and experience tells you to follow them. Be willing to nix a new project, or at least your involvement in it. Tonight: Out late. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH Seek out new

perspectives and knowledge. Your instincts tell you one thing, and reality tells you something different. Zero in on what is important, especially in a meeting. Share your thoughts. Tonight: Where you can relax most. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHHH A partner goes out of his or her way to help you, especially with a public or community matter. You could be on overload with all the feelings that come up. Be happy for the support and caring. Tonight: A must appearance. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH You could be overwhelmed by a boss and his or her efforts. Accept the compliments. Know that you are being observed with care. A key friend, family member or loved one cannot do enough. He or she brings you important information. Tonight: Just don’t be alone. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Tension builds wherever you are. The only way to dissipate some of this energy is to detach. Focus on what you must do, and you will get it done. A co-worker or associate pitches in. Tonight: Have a long-overdue chat. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Partners, associates and friends all want command of the ship. Let them have it, while you go off and do something you really enjoy. Creativity, humor and friendship could merge. Enjoy every moment. Tonight: Go with the flow. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH If you can continue working

from home, please do. You could be overwhelmed by everything that is on your plate. Your efforts to clear out work, errands and all that might be weighing you down help. Tonight: Order in. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHHH You have to field more than your share of calls and requests, and a meeting could be exhausting. Your creativity helps cut through the fat and get down to brass tacks. Recognize that you have limited energy. Try not to put in overtime. Tonight: Catch up on another person’s news. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH You might be shooting yourself in the foot if you continue to go for a risk. Use your funds to build greater stability, or plug some money into your home. Find another way of letting off steam. Try more people time. Tonight: Be a wild thing. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH You could feel drained by a family member or domestic situation. Know when you can do nothing more, and go about your day. Many people appreciate your efforts and time. Stay where you do make a difference. Tonight: As you like it. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH How you handle a close friend and the choices you make come from within. Treat people as you would like to be treated, and see how easy it can be. A call could cause you to withdraw, think and maybe daydream. Tonight: Lie low. © 2009 by King Features Syndicate

Continued from E1 The road was clear about halfway up to Skyliner Sno-park but, by the time we got to the bridge across Tumalo Creek and parked near the gate closing off the summer access road, it was all snow. The access road becomes a popular cross-country ski and snowshoe route in the winter. Last weekend, the snow was well packed on the road and would have been easy to hike in boots. Because we had snowshoes, we headed off the trail to the edge of Tumalo Creek. Here, the snow was light and largely untracked. The creek, a stream of black cutting through the pristine snow field, was beautiful. Few people were out last weekend and it felt like we had the whole canyon to ourselves. We had put the baby, Charlie, in a backpack, the first time we had given it a try. When babies are younger than 6 months, your best bet is usually a front carrier, said Dr. Brenda Hedges, a pedia-

If you go What: Tumalo Falls Getting there: Drive west on Galveston Avenue, which turns into Skyliners Road. After about 10 miles, the road crosses Tumalo Creek, park near the gate just over the creek. Difficulty: Moderate if you go all the way to Tumalo Falls, Easy if you just walk around near the bridge. Cost: Free Contact: Deschutes and Ochoco national forests: 541-383-5300

trician at Central Oregon Pediatric Associates. The main issue, Hedges said, is head control. If a baby can’t consistently hold his head up, “you run the risk of having them slump their head forward and block their airway.” Hedges also said that, especially when babies are very young, it’s a good idea to check

on them every few minutes while you are carrying them. Often, as happened when our son was younger, the rhythmic motion of the walking will induce nap time. On this hike, however, Charlie was all eyes and ears open. At 6 months, he’s much more interested in new surroundings than he used to be. As we walked, we narrated: the burbling of the river, the dusting of snow on the canyon walls and the crunch of the snow beneath our feet. We headed back after about half an hour of slow meandering along the creek side. Our baby had seemed to enjoy himself; we had no crying or even whimpering. I know my husband and I had fun, taking in the creek and dreaming about the day when our son would throw rocks in it. For all the bundling and hassle, sharing the outdoors with kids, we decided, was well worth it. Betsy Q. Cliff can be reached at 541-383-0375 or bcliff@bendbulletin.com.

Trails Continued from E1 Three Creek Lake and Swampy Lakes Sno-park areas are also seeing good conditions, with the latter having a snow depth of about 5 feet. Edison Sno-park picked up 6 to 8 inches in the last several days. Groomers have stopped their activities at Virginia Meissner Sno-

park for the season, although Sabo said conditions there were fair as of Sunday. From a winter standpoint, Skyliner Sno-park is kaput because of low snow. Forest Road 4603, the road to Tumalo Falls, will likely remain closed for another few weeks. Snow conditions have improved at Newberry Crater, but plowing is also under way on Forest Road 21 there, Sabo said.

“Riding conditions, at least on that road, are not going to be good, and (snowmobilers) need to be aware that there’s going to be quite a substantial drop off on the 21 road all the way into the crater. If they’re going to ride there, big heads up on that.” David Jasper can be reached at 541-383-0349 or djasper@bendbulletin.com.

A group of doctors is beginning to address the high rate of back surgeries in Bend

Vital stats The rate of Central Oregonians diagnosed with HIV/AIDS is less than most of the state, Page F4

By Betsy Q. Cliff The Bulletin

group of Bend physicians has come together to address one of the communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s long-standing medical issues: Are people with back problems given the best possible care? At issue is the rate of back surgeries done in Bend. According to the latest data from 2005 from The Dartmouth Atlas of

Grin for your health Turn that frown upside down and add a few years to your life, Page F4

NUTRITION

Health Care, which tracks variations in care across the country, Bend has the second highest rate of back surgeries in the nation. Only Casper, Wyo., does more. The concern is that, because the community is so different from the norms in the rest of the country, patients may not be getting the most effective treatment for their condition. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re spending lots of money,â&#x20AC;? said Dr. Ray Tien, a neuro-

surgeon in Bend, who said that data heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s seen show a continuing trend of high back-surgery rates in more recent years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think that patients are necessarily getting quality care for the money.â&#x20AC;? Last winter, the surgeons and other back specialists quietly began regular meetings to examine just how they are treating patients. See Back / F6

Counting on calorie counts New laws will require restaurants to post nutritional data By Betsy Q. Cliff The Bulletin

Across the country, restaurants will soon be required to post their calorie counts on the same boards as their Big Macs and their $5 Footlongs. The new regulation was passed as part of the federal health re- N U T R form bill. And though it got much less publicity than the insurance or student loan changes enacted, it could have a profound effect on the behavior, or at least the lunch experience, of most Americans. It requires restaurants with 20 or more outlets, including all large chain restaurants, to post calorie information on their menus. The law also applies to vending machines when they are operated by someone with more than 20 machines. The idea is that people will be able to know

how many calories they are about to consume before they order. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Studies show that people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t eat as well when they eat out compared to when they eat at home,â&#x20AC;? said Margo Wootan, director of nutrition policy for the Center for I T I O N Science in the Public Interest, who worked on the legislation for about eight years. A big part of the reason, she said, is â&#x20AC;&#x153;because they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have the nutrition information; they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know what they are getting.â&#x20AC;? For example, Wootan said, salad dressings can range from about 40 calories to several hundred calories. Different types of chicken sandwiches at the same place, she said, can vary by hundreds of calories depending on what is in them and how they are cooked. See Labels / F5

â&#x20AC;&#x153;This (federal law) will provide a very easy way for people to cut hundreds or thousands of calories from their diet.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Margo Wootan, Center for Science in the Public Interest

From the farm to the gym

EXERCISE TIPS PROPER TECHNIQUE:

Bicep curl

Trainer uses old-school techniques to help build real-world strength By Landon Hall The Orange County Register (Calif.)

COSTA MESA, Calif. — Brad Davidson teaches people how to get strong by bringing some of his childhood experiences on an Oregon dairy farm to his gym on in Costa Mesa, Calif. Milking cows and carrying 50pound sacks of powdered milk, as well as watching his grandfather and uncles perform grueling tasks every day, inspired a lifelong passion for studying the science of strength. His conclusion: The most effective techniques were invented between the end of the Civil War and the 1930s, many of them in Eastern Europe. Some of the exercises he uses in the parking lot of his gym, Synergy Training Centers, are borrowed straight from the farm, or a 19th-century logging camp: Clients tip over 475-pound tractor tires, swing sledgehammers or use a thick rope to pull slabs of weights stacked on a sled that grinds against the asphalt. “We call it Country Strong or Farm Strong,” Davidson said. “That’s real-world strength.” “You can’t beat what works,” he added. “Nothing great has been invented the last 70, 80 years. There’s been no new ideas. Just the same old ideas renamed or repackaged.” Davidson, 34, who played football at Golden West College in Huntington Beach, Calif., and took a shot at making the U.S. Olympic bobsled team four years ago, is 5-foot-10 and 180 pounds. He pulls half a dozen books from his bookshelf in his office. They’re all thin and mostly old and obscure, loaded with black and white photos featuring barrel-chested men in tootight shorts, hoisting massive weights straight out of a cartoon — matching cannonballs with a bar in between. Their trailblazer is Arthur Saxon, the handlebar-mustachioed German billed as the world’s strongest man in the early 20th century. He is said to have been able to raise a plank carrying 12 men. And he once lifted a 315-pound barbell over his head, with one hand, and tossed it to the other hand. “Look at this guy,” Davidson

said, pointing to Saxon’s bulging biceps. “Every man wants to look like him, and every woman wants a man to look like him. He was unbelievably strong. No steroids, no supplements, just ate well and used training protocols. It’s just insane. He makes us look like a bunch of pansies these days.” In his 1906 book “The Development of Physical Power,” Saxon wrote that “the usual idea about strength — I mean the idea of the average reader of health magazines — is generally a wrong one. Genuine strength should include not only momentary strength, as proved by the ability to lift a heavy weight once, but also the far more valuable kind of strength known as strength for endurance.” Much of what Saxon and others preached has been vetted, tested and expanded on by research and by modern-day experts like Canadian Charles Poliquin, who has coached Olympic and professional athletes and is a mentor of Davidson’s. To get stronger without getting bigger, Davidson said, reduce repetitions, increase the weight and keep the “time under tension” below 20 seconds. “You have to be using 70 percent of your 1RM (one-rep maximum) or heavier to get a strength response.” He said deep squats (bending the knees so that the rear touches the heels) has proved far more effective at building strength and preventing injuries to lower legs than just going parallel. While a quarter of Davidson’s clients are elite athletes, the rest are regular people who want to get stronger to live better lives — to be able to pick up their children or grandchildren without pain or make it through a workday without tiring out. Davidson does intensive assessment early on and develops workouts to suit whatever they want to achieve. Saxon wrote that bicyclists should be able to “jump on your machine and ride 100 miles at any time without undue fatigue.” But in the real world, a “businessman” should be able to work “morning, afternoon and night with unflagging energy, holding tightly in his grasp the reins of

1 Morri Stewart, a trainer at the Athletic Club of Bend and Energize Fitness, demonstrates the correct way to perform some classic strengthening exercises. Doing these with proper form helps prevent injury and maximize benefits. This exercise can be done individually or you can try all nine, which are running every other week in The Bulletin through June 3. The bicep curl strengthens the bicep muscles in the upper arm.

New York Times News Service

NEW YORK — When Laurie Davis wakes up in the morning, she sometimes feels like skipping her workout. But two days a week, hitting the snooze button is not an option: She knows that at 7 a.m., Yvette Rose will ring the buzzer at her Manhattan apartment with hand weights and resistance bands in tow. “Even when you don’t want to get up and put your workout clothes on, there’s just no excuse,” said Davis, an account executive at a New York advertising agency. Many people find that hiring a personal trainer who makes house calls is the only way to ensure they stick to their fitness goals. Although it may sound like a luxury, training at home has grown more affordable since the economy soured because more instructors are willing to strike deals. There are plusses and minuses to an at-home workout. For the client, training in the living room means giving up commercial-gym amenities — spinning rooms, saunas, the latest elliptical machine — in exchange for privacy, convenience and, most important, an iron-clad appointment. For the trainer, making house calls means not having to split fees with a gym or invest in a lot of equipment. On the down side, it can mean having to lug heavy weights and operate in spaces that may not be ideal for a vigorous workout.

“Even when you don’t want to get up and put your workout clothes on, there’s just no excuse.” — Laurie Davis, of New York “Every time you go in, you have to scout around and make sure there isn’t stuff lying around or that the floors aren’t sticky,” Rose said. Children and dogs can also be a problem. “I’ve taught yoga classes where the client will be in a plank position, and her son jumps on her back,” she added. Although the price for at-home training is usually about the same as for meeting a trainer at a gym — in the New York area, it usually costs $75 to $225 an hour — many personal trainers and yoga and Pilates instructors are hungry for work, so it is a buyer’s market. Liz Neporent, president of Wellness 360, which manages residential gyms in co-ops and condominiums, said that since the downturn she has seen a sharp increase in the number of highly qualified trainers asking to get on Wellness 360’s payroll, which offers steadier work but lower hourly pay than independent contracting. “It used to be like pulling teeth to get them to come,” she said. Many private trainers do not want to admit that they will low-

How to do it: Start holding free weights with elbows at sides and palms facing legs (1). Slowly bring up one arm, keeping wrist stiff and aligned with forearm (2). Alternate arms. Keep the rest of the body still during this exercise and do not swing arms. Go to a lower weight if you need to swing your arms or feel your pelvis moving to lift the weights, Stewart said. — Betsy Q. Cliff, The Bulletin

The old-fashioned sledgehammer is a workout tool for Brian Barss at Synergy Training Centers in Costa Mesa, Calif. The workout is part of a technique that incorporates farm work into strength exercises. business, retaining all the while a clear mind and untiring energy, both of body and brain.” That notion appeals to Bert Selva, CEO of Shea Homes, the nation’s largest privately owned homebuilder. Selva, 48, who lives in Newport Beach, Calif., had back problems for years because of herniated discs. He has worked with Davidson for about five years and said “I’ve never felt better.” “I run a big company, so I’ve got to have energy all day,” he said. “Now I don’t really feel a lapse in energy.” Another Newport Beach client, Brian Barss, just likes the challenge of the farm gear out back. “I love taking a beating, so this is a good workout for me,” said Barss, 31. “It’s not for the meager or the timid, that’s for sure.” Davidson said one reason for his obsessive emphasis on strength training is that his father, Mike, who is 54, has myotonic dystrophy, a disease that

er their rates, but some clients are quietly passing on the word. Karen Hochman, editorial director of TheNibble.com, an online food magazine, said that her Pilates teacher gives her a halfprice discount. Without it, she said, she would not be able to afford twice-a-week lessons in her Manhattan apartment. “I’m grateful the recession has provided me with this opportunity, though I wish I could pay my teacher more,” Hochman said. For Andrea Albicocco, meeting a personal trainer at the gym in her condominium in Hoboken, N.J., helped her get in shape for her wedding last fall. “I’m the kind of person who doesn’t push myself at the gym,” she said. Though Albicocco had previously worked with trainers at a fitness club, she found the setting too public. “I didn’t like the way people were watching me,” she said. “You feel self-conscious while the trainer is showing you how to do it and pushing you.” At her home gym, she was able to negotiate a rate of $65 an hour — down from $75 — by paying for 25 sessions up front, she said. Some people are able to afford at-home training by teaming up with a friend to share the cost. “Trainers are realizing that they may not be able to charge their regular fee of $80 an hour for a solo session, but they can charge two people $50 an hour and train them together,” said Neal Pire, a personal trainer from Ridgewood, N.J. “So they are charging less per person, but they are also making more money.”

slowly attacks the muscles. “He’s wasting away, and he falls multiple times a week,” Brad said. “If he gets in a car wreck, he’s not going to be able to prevent bones from breaking. He gets sick a lot. You and I, we get bronchitis, we get antibiotics and it’s gone in a week. He’s had it for three weeks and can’t get rid of it. “So strength matters. The more muscle mass you have, the greater your chance to live long.”

Starting life over at age 17 Rare virus caused Bethany Marshall to lose her past, but she found her future By Elizabeth Leland McClatchy-Tribune News Service

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Gary Marshall found his daughter lying in bed, squeezing her temples and screaming. Her cheeks were red from fever, her eyes red from crying. She complained of a pounding headache, and was disoriented. She didn’t know where she was. She didn’t understand why there was a tree — their Christmas tree — in the living room. On the way to the emergency room, she didn’t recognize any landmarks. Gary didn’t realize it then, but Bethany didn’t recognize him either. She had no idea he was her father. She didn’t even know what a father is, or why she was supposed to love him. A virus had invaded her brain and stolen her memories. On that December morning 10 years ago, Bethany Marshall started life over at 17. Bethany’s parents have wonderful memories of her first 17 years: Bethany at Disney World. Sweet big sister to Caleb and Jessica. Drum major in the high school marching band. Pianist. First baseman on the softball team. Soprano in the church choir. Miss North Iredell High. Bethany remembers none of that. Her first memory begins the day she woke up feeling sick and confused, Dec. 11, 2000. She remembers looking at the Christian rock posters on the walls of the bedroom and the piles of clothes on the floor. She didn’t know who all the stuff belonged to. She remembers screaming in pain. Then a man walked in. “Babe?” Something about the stranger reassured her. She felt she could trust him. She let him pick out clothes for her to wear and let him drive her to the hospital. It was her room, she would learn. Her clothes. Her father. She would have to figure out exactly what a father was, but that would come later. First, she had to figure out who she was.

Trillions of memories Memories make us who we are. Precisely how we store trillions of bits of information — more than any computer can store — remains one of the mysteries of the mind. Scientists are equally baffled by how we lose that information. They do know this: New memories are encoded in the brain’s hippocampus. They suspect memories go from there to the frontal lobes for long-term storage. Amnesia results when the frontal lobes are damaged, sometimes by a blow or sudden jarring or, in Bethany’s case, by a viral infection. The same virus that caused cold sores on her lips migrated to her brain, resulting in a rare and often fatal condition known as herpes encephalitis. The virus attached itself to neurons in her brain and either wiped out her memories or wiped away her ability to retrieve them. Scientists aren’t exactly sure what happens.

Remember me? As she waited in the emergency room that first day, a strange woman rushed up and covered Bethany’s bare feet with a blanket. Baby, are you OK? Somebody is squeezing my head in two, Bethany told her politely. Bethany looked over to the man who had driven her there, the man she would eventually come to know again as her father. She needed his help. She wanted the woman to leave her alone. Patricia Marshall could tell Bethany didn’t want her hovering. She blamed Bethany’s odd behavior on the pain. Patricia was her mother, after all. They had always been close. But as the hours in the hospital passed, then days, Patricia realized that the Bethany she once knew no longer existed. Word spread through Olin, N.C., their rural community of 1,500 people north of Statesville, and family and friends rushed to the hospital. Her dad explained to Bethany

Bethany Marshall, pictured with her father Gary Marshall, woke up one day when she was 17 and didn’t know who she was, didn’t know who her father was, or even know what a father was. Viral encephalitis caused amnesia. She eventually went on to college and is now working as a receptionist for a doctor and hoping to get into graduate school.

Bethany Marshall via Charlotte Observer

In this undated family photograph, a teenage Bethany Marshall, right, is seen having her nails done at a sleepover party she can’t remember. who each visitor was: This is your brother, Caleb. Your sister, Jessica. Your teacher. Our neighbor. One of your friends. A member of our church. Bethany stared as if she was seeing each person for the first time. They meant nothing to her. She could tell that her lack of recognition dismayed them. To be the one forgotten seemed as painful as being the one who forgot.

Bethany was like a child. She didn’t know what a microwave oven was, or how to work it. She didn’t realize TV cartoons are not real. She didn’t understand how leaves changed color, or how a new year follows the old. She remembered how to tie her shoes and how to walk and talk. Those unconscious muscle memories are stored in the basal ganglia and cerebellum, parts of the brain largely unaffected by amnesia. She could instinctively do a lot, but didn’t remember learning how. The first time she heard her sister play the piano, she was mesmerized. It sounded beautiful! Her parents told Bethany she knew how to play, too, that she performed in church and accompanied a high school choir. Bethany didn’t believe them, refused to even try. Then one day, while talking with her mother, she sat down at the piano and rested her hands on the keyboard. Without intending to, she began playing chords, and Beethoven’s “Fur Elise” emerged from her fingertips. That moment was a turning point. Bethany understood for the first time that she really did have a life before.

Dr. Alan Finkel in Chapel Hill. He weaned Bethany from all the medicines, a horrible experience in itself. Then he prescribed topiramate, an anticonvulsant often used for migraines. It reduced the frequency of her headaches, though she still endures daily headaches that might send another person to bed. Learning to tolerate the pain and understanding the importance of coping with chronic illness allowed her to think about moving on with her life. A reality TV show, of all things, helped her do it. She was watching “Starting Over” on NBC in 2004. Six women were living together on the show and working on problems in their lives with help from a psychologist and two life coaches. Bethany sent in a video of herself. “People were telling me what’s right. I had to figure out what’s right for myself,” she said. “I wondered what values were mine, and which were theirs.” A few months later, the same Bethany who once was content to live in Olin for the rest of her life was living in Los Angeles with five women and starring in a TV show. She assumed her problem was her lack of memory. She felt sorry for herself, wondering why it had to happen to her. On the TV show, she said she discovered that selfesteem — not amnesia — was her real problem. She was scared to try anything, scared to live. She remembers saying she couldn’t go to college because she didn’t know anything. That’s why you go to college, her life coach said: to learn. If she had no past, Bethany wondered, could she have a future?

Tolerating the pain

Discovering who she is

Her memories never came back and the headaches never went away. They were her biggest hurdle to recovery. She felt locked in a world of chronic pain and frustration, sometimes anger and depression. The pain was so severe some nights, she raged like a mad woman. Her father rushed her several times to the emergency room. After three years, multiple doctors, dozens of drugs, but little improvement, they sought out

She enrolled at UNC Greensboro in 2005 with her brother, Caleb. She was 22, older than most freshmen, but younger in many ways. They lived off campus, and Caleb helped her with homework, answered her endless questions, looked out for her. She carried a dictionary wherever she went. She didn’t remember a lot of words. Or maybe she never knew them. She enrolled as a music major

A piano revelation

because people told her she loved to perform. But that was the old Bethany. The new Bethany had no desire to sing or play piano in public. She switched her major to communications studies. She wanted to understand herself and others. She was like a sponge, soaking up all kinds of knowledge and experiences. She not only had to relearn her history, she had to relearn the history of the world. She watched how her classmates interacted, and began to understand the nature of relationships and the importance of family and friends. She finally realized why her amnesia upset her mother so. “I feel,” Bethany said, “I need to double-love her now.” Bethany graduated in May 2009 and works as a receptionist for Piedmont HealthCare Family Medicine in Statesville, N.C. She interviewed last week at UNC Greensboro, where she hopes to return in the fall to get a master’s degree in communication. She wants to teach. She appreciates the irony that someone who knew almost nothing may one day teach. She is still surprised nine years later to occasionally discover little things about herself. “I feel like my family has this secret I don’t know.” And what if suddenly she did know everything? What if all her memories flood back tomorrow? Bethany is 26, and she’s not sure she wants those memories back. She is a different person now, formed from nine years of new experiences, and she’s happy being that person. It’s all she remembers.

Smile your way to a long life By Shari Roan Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — People who smile a lot are usually happier, have more stable personalities, more stable marriages, better cognitive skills and better interpersonal skills, according to research. Science has just uncovered another benefit of a happy face. People who have big smiles live longer. Researchers at Wayne State University used information from the Baseball Register to look at photos of 230 players who debuted in professional baseball before 1950. The players’ photos were enlarged and a rating of their smile intensity

was made (big smile, no smile, partial smile). The players’ smile ratings were compared with data from deaths that occurred 2006 and 2009. For those players who had died, the researchers found longevity ranged from an average of 72.9 years for players with no smiles (63 players), to 75 years for players with partial smiles (64 players) to 79.9 years for players with big smiles (23 players). This isn’t a bunch of psychohooey, the authors said. Smiles reflect positive emotion. Positive emotion has been linked to both physical and mental well-being.

VITAMINS TAKE YOUR VITAMINS: A regular look at the sources and benefits of vitamins and minerals.

Vitamin E Vitamin E is a collective name for a group of fat-soluble vitamins occurring naturally in nuts, oils and green leafy vegetables. While there are eight natural forms of vitamin E, only one — alpha-tocopherol — can be used by the body. Vitamin E is stored in the liver, which releases it into the bloodstream as needed. The compound is an antioxidant, which prevents cell damage and is needed for a healthy immune system. It also helps to dilate blood vessels and to prevent blood clots from forming. Several studies have found that people who consume more vitamin E have a lower risk of heart disease and cancer. But randomized clinical trials found that vitamin E supplements did not prevent heart attacks or strokes and might increase the rates of heart failure. And other randomized trials found no benefits in preventing cancer either. Vitamin E supplements were also tested for the prevention of cognitive decline, such as dementia or Alzheimer’s disease, but results have been inconclusive. People with higher intakes of vitamin E tended to have lower rates of macular degeneration and cataracts, but supplements have not proven to be effective in preventing those eye disorders. Vitamin E can interact with various medications, including blood thinners, certain cholesterol medications and chemotherapy or radiotherapy treatments. Higher doses of vitamin E can lead to bleeding or interfere with normal clotting. The safe upper limit for vitamin E has been set at 1,000 mg, but some studies have shown a small increase in the risk of death in people who take supplements of 400 mg per day or more. Vitamin E deficiency is rare, except in people who have trouble digesting fat. Synthetic vitamin E, listed on product labels with the designation “DL,” is only half as active as naturally occurring vitamin E, designated with a “D.” As a result, you need twice as much of the supplement to reach the same amount of the nutrient. Most vitamin E supplements contain at least 45 mg of alpha-tocopherol and many contain 180 mg. Daily recommended amount: Adults: 15 mg Lactating women: 19 mg Children (0-6 months): 4 mg Children (7-12 months): 5 mg Children (1-3 years): 6 mg Children (4-8 years): 7 mg Children (9-13 years): 11 mg Children (14-18): 15 mg

Good sources: Almonds (dry roasted, 1 oz.): 7.4 mg Sunflower oil (1 TBS): 5.6 mg Peanut butter (2 TBS): 2.9 mg Broccoli (cooked, 1 cup): 1.2 mg Fortified breakfast cereal (1 cup): 20 to 40 mg Sources: National Institutes of Health, University of Florida

Chain restaurants, including many fast-food establishments, are required to give customers a copy of their nutrition information upon request.

Labels Continued from F1 “This (law) will provide a very easy way for people to cut hundreds or thousands of calories from their diet,” she said. Oregon was already on the path to putting calorie labels on menus and may implement calorie labels before the federal legislation is in place. It’s unlikely the provision in the federal law will take effect before 2012, said Wootan. The state passed a law in 2009 mandating that chain restaurants, beginning in 2010, make nutrition information available, typically in brochures that customers can pick up at the restaurant. Next year restaurants must post calorie counts on menus. Though chain restaurants had previously resisted efforts to post calorie information on their menus, they didn’t put up a big fight during the most recent health reform debates, said Wootan. “One of the key reasons the restaurant industry went along with this was they saw so many states and localities were looking into this.”

Oregon was instrumental, she said, in helping gain momentum for the movement. “We would have never been able to pass this law without the work in Multnomah County (which passed a menu labeling law before the state) and Oregon.” At least one area restaurant chain is happy about the move. “We are really happy to be able to provide nutritional information to customers,” said Nanette Bittler, co-owner of McDonald’s franchises in Bend, Sisters and La Pine. She said the restaurant currently provides information on the back of tray linings, in nutritional brochures at restaurants and online. Some restaurants, Wootan said, have changed their menus since laws took effect, making them healthier and more appealing to calorie-conscious consumers. Starbucks, she said, cut calories and fat out of some drinks and pastries, and Denny’s cut down on the calories in their Grand Slam Breakfasts. “When you are just making food to taste good, you just add fat and cheese,” she said. “But when you start to think about calories, you start to think about, ‘How much do I really

need to add?’” There are a few technical differences between the federal and state law, said Cathryn Cushing, communications manager for the state’s Health Promotion and Chronic Disease Prevention Section. However, those differences should not interfere with full implementation of the state law in 2011. The differences revolve around which restaurants must post calorie information. Oregon law applies to restaurants with 15 outlets or more; federal law applies to those with 20 or more. Oregon law exempts drive-through restaurants; federal law does not. Despite the technical details, Cushing said, she is hopeful the law will produce positive changes for Oregonians’ health. More than two-thirds of Oregonians are overweight, Cushing said. “It’s unacceptable that we don’t do something about that.” The new laws, she said, “will give people those tools that they need to start making more healthy choices.” Betsy Q.

Dieting doesn’t have to mean giving up taste — and that’s for real, nutritionists say. A few tips: Wait to remove skin. Cooking chicken without its skin can leave the meat too dry. Take the skin off once the meat is cooked and rub on spices for added taste. Substitute meats. Try ground chicken or turkey instead of beef and Canadian bacon in place of regular strips. Use extra flavorings and vegetable toppings to boost the flavor of meat dishes. Flavor your water. In place of lemonade, squeeze some fresh lemon into a glass of water. For a lower-calorie “juice,” stir in a sugar-free mix such as Crystal Light. Cut the fat in recipes. Most baked goods do fine with a third to a half less oil, butter or margarine. Make gradual cutbacks and experiment with healthier ingredients such as applesauce or fat-free sour cream. Also use nonstick pans and cooking spray. Emphasize egg whites. Use one egg white and one whole egg instead of two whole eggs in scrambles and omelets (the yolk is higher in calories). Buy reduced-fat dairy. These versions of milk, cheese, sour cream and buttermilk taste good and will work in most recipes. Cut down on high-fat extras. Use half the amount of frosting on cakes or replace it with a sprinkle of powdered sugar. Put fewer chocolate or peanut butter chips into cookies — you’ll still get the flavor. Move slowly. When switching to diet soda or another low-calorie product, don’t give up after a few tries. Your taste buds often will adjust.

Vitamin D shows plenty of promise, but research still lagging By Julie Deardorff Chicago Tribune

As far as Dr. Joseph Mercola is concerned, Vitamin D is the magic bullet we’ve all been looking for. A lack of this wonder nutrient, the controversial natural health advocate says, can set the stage for no fewer than 33 disorders, including autism, cancer, diabetes and infertility. “Vitamin D appears to reduce your risk of dying from virtually ANY disease,” he wrote on his popular Web site. His recommendation? Get more sun, relax in a tanning bed or try supplements such as “Sunshine Mist,” a vitamin D spray he sells. Long ignored and feared in high doses, vitamin D is now being hailed as the answer to nearly every health issue under the sun. The excitement stems from a flurry of preliminary studies finding

links between vitamin D deficiencies and various illnesses, and this summer the federal Institute of Medicine plans to announce revised recommendations regarding dietary intake of vitamin D and calcium that almost certainly will be higher. But despite the scientific attention being paid to vitamin D, experts caution that claims of wideranging health benefits are not yet supported by clinical evidence. Though D is thought to hold tremendous promise, we’ve been down this garden path before: Hopes for the powers of vitamin E, beta carotene, antioxidant vitamins, selenium and other nutrients collapsed under the weight of rigorous randomized clinical trials. “It’s premature to go out and make a big deal out of vitamin D supplementation when we don’t

have the evidence,” said endocrinologist Anastassios Pittas, codirector of the Diabetes Center at Tufts University Medical Center. “We’ve been burned before on nutrition-based interventions,” he said. Yet already bread, pasta, orange juice and soy foods are being fortified with vitamin D, and sales of vitamin D supplements grew 116.5 percent from 2007 to 2008, from $108 million $234 million, according to estimates from Nutrition Business Journal. The body naturally makes the vitamin when the sun’s ultraviolet rays hit the skin, but fear of health risks and modern lifestyles have limited sun exposure for many. Mercola, a non-practicing os-

teopathic physician who owns a clinic in Hoffman Estates, Ill., is one of the nutrient’s most public and ardent supporters, with an evangelical style that can grate on the nerves of more cautious physicians. Unlike most doctors, Mercola recommends universal baseline testing and widespread highdose supplementation. “I’ve been preaching about this for a long time,” said Mercola, who started his campaign 10 years ago. “Eventually the evidence comes out.” Mercola said children should get almost six times the amount of vitamin D currently recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics, while adults and pregnant women should be receiving

5,000 IUs per day. Most leading vitamin D researchers recommend no more than 1,000 to 2,000 IUs a day to the general public, citing insufficient evidence for higher doses. The current federal guidelines, which are widely considered to be woefully inadequate, range from 200 to 600 IUs, depending on age.

“Dr. Mercola popularizes and promotes vitamin D in a very passionate way,” said Dr. Gregory Plotnikoff, a senior consultant at the Center for Healthcare Innovation in Minneapolis who is conducting vitamin D trials.

Dr. Ray Tien, left, and Ken House both say there’s reason for concern over the high rate of back surgeries in Bend. Tien is leading a group of physicians who are beginning to address the issue.

Back Continued from F1 The meetings, say those involved, came from the recognition that the way back patients in Central Oregon are cared for may have to change. “I think finally people have come to an understanding that something’s not quite right,” said Ken House, director of quality at St. Charles Bend. This type of gathering is somewhat unusual, both for this community and nationwide. These are people who compete with each other for business. But organizers say that they need to be proactive. With health reform efforts and insurers taking a closer look at the use of high-cost services such as back surgery, the issue will not go away. “The physicians need to take control,” said Tien, who is leading the effort, “or someone else is going to.”

back pain without neurological symptoms does not require surgery. “But it’s still happening.” The issue was more contentious, Tien said, than he thought it would be. Still, the group emerged with some guidelines of how they, as a community, intend to deal with the problem. In the future, they will tackle increasingly difficult topics — about a dozen in all. Tien anticipates that the process will take about a year.

Disagreement lingers

Building consensus won’t be an easy process. Currently, there isn’t even agreement among surgeons that Bend’s rate of back surgeries is too high. Even though Dr. Brad Ward and Tien are both neurosurgeons in the same practice at The Center: Orthopedic & Neurosurgical Care & Research, Ward said he didn’t think the number of back surgeries in Bend was excessive. “I don’t think the feeling among spine surgeons is that someCommunity guidelines thing’s got to change,” he said. “I The meetings so far, which in- don’t see people coming in that I clude about 15 to 20 physicians, have operated on that shouldn’t have focused on trying to estab- have had surgery.” lish clear guidelines for common Dr. Kathy Moore, a spine surback problems.

In general, he said, low in studies to help patients more

than less-invasive techniques. “We’re trying to look at the national guidelines,” said Tien, “and say we want to eliminate technique x, y and z because they don’t work.”

More data, less surgery Once there are community guidelines in place for the care of backs, the group hopes to begin collecting data on what treatment is given for various back problems. Using either the hospital or insurers, Tien said, they hope to build a database that will show what treatments patients are getting from each back surgeon and how they are doing with those treatments. That phase, Tien said, is not yet fully conceived and is likely to be more contentious. As is often the case when collecting data on patient outcomes, there will probably be disagreement over what types of measures should be used to determine how well patients do. Tien said, too, that many physicians will probably resist having others looking over their shoulder. Still, he said, that phase of the initiative could be the most important. “That’s where the rubber meets the road,” said Tien. “It’s only in that manner, when you look at yourself in the mirror, that you understand where the problem is located.” And it’s that kind of data that could begin to bring change to the way back problems are treated in Central Oregon. At other institutions that have set some standards and tracked individual physician outcomes, care has changed and often patients have done better. For example, physicians at Intermountain Health Care in Salt Lake City, one of the leaders in these efforts, developed a protocol to deal with pneumonia among the elderly. Though pneumonia is a common ailment that physicians deal with every day, having set standards helped. According to a 2001 study, the hospital was able to decrease mortality from pneumonia by 30 percent. Organizers of Bend’s committee hope that their efforts will result in similarly improved care. Tien cites the area’s high rate of second back operations as evidence that something needs to change. So far, nothing is settled as to how the data will be collected and what, exactly, will be measured. Tien said it was brought up briefly at the first meeting, but it was “force fields up immediately.” They quickly turned to more amicable topics, he said. The days of data collection and analysis are probably some ways off. Right now, the focus is on talking about the issue. “The fact that there’s a consensus that we need to be looking at evidencebased medicine,” said Belza, “is a lot closer than we were five years ago.” Betsy Q.

Women with Type 2 diabetes who take a commonly prescribed drug for the problem are at a higher risk of bone fractures, a Henry Ford Hospital study has found. The drugs, a class of medicines called thiazolidinediones, or TZDs, help control blood sugar levels. But women, particularly white women, taking the drugs for a year had a 50 percent higher chance of developing a bone fracture, according to the study in the February issue of the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism. Dr. Keoki Williams and his team studied 10,070 Henry Ford patients for the study. Men were not at increased risk of fractures if they took the diabetes drugs. Diabetic patients already are at higher risk for fractures, he noted. The findings suggest that diabetic patients taking the drugs be checked for bone loss periodically. They might need to switch to other medicines, or take bone-fracture prevention drugs if tests find potential problems, Williams said. Type 2 diabetes, the most common form of diabetes, occurs when the pancreas fails to produce enough insulin for the body or the insulin is not metabolized properly, according to the American Diabetes Association. The body needs insulin to absorb sugar for energy. Some people must take insulin or oral medication, but the condition is usually treated through diet and exercise.
