Nearly two decades after Dennis Luke first ran for elected office, the former state legislator and three-term Deschutes County Commissioner says his work is not finished and he wants voters to keep him on the commission.

Luke has said he wants to shepherd the county through tough budget years ahead and work to expand the county jail. But he’s also drawn criticism from

ELECTION some residents for not listening to their concerns.

Tony DeBone, whom Luke faces in the May 18 Republican primary, has a background in information technology and says he would bring a fresh

perspective to the commission. He is outraising and outspending the incumbent in the campaign.

Three Democrats have also filed for Luke’s seat, and one candidate from each party will face off in the November general election.

The three Deschutes County commissioners serve four-year terms and earn $76,923 per year for the full-time position.

WASHINGTON — Since 2000, Deschutes County’s population has grown by 48 percent and Central Oregon has passed through a housing boom and economic downturn, but the number of rental assistance vouchers for low-income families has stayed nearly level. The result: the region’s housing agency can’t come close to meeting requests for help.

That’s a consequence of years of nearly frozen federal funding for the Housing and Urban Development Department’s voucher program, according to housing policy analysts, which left little money to increase funding for groups like HousingWorks, the nonprofit agency that distributes federal housing aid in Deschutes, Crook and Jefferson counties.

Now, a bill in Congress to make some of the HUD programs more efficient and a proposed increase in funding for voucher programs could help Central Oregon families. But it will still fall far short of meeting demand for aid, according to HousingWorks’s executive director and two housing policy experts.

HousingWorks distributes about 1,080 vouchers every month, a number that has hardly changed over the past eight years, even as Central Oregon’s need for housing aid has increased.

There are currently about 1,200 people on the housing authority’s waiting list, which greatly understates the demand, said Executive Director Cyndy Cook. HousingWorks updates its waiting list every six months, rather than keeping the list open all of the time.

“If we were to keep our waiting list open all the time, there would be thousands of people on the list.”

CHICAGO — Because she was born in Chicago, Karen Peisker never imagined her bosses at the United Parcel Service would suddenly question her right to work in the country legally. But last month, an electronic employee verification system flagged her for possible identity fraud because she had been using her married name, Rivera, on her driver’s license since 2007. Though Peisker, 50, had joined the company in 1985, it put her at risk of being fired.

Such problems with the federal E-verify software system — intended to pluck illegal immigrants out of the work force — have led to proposals for a more wide-reaching solution that could be as culturally transformative as it is controversial.

WAUCONDA, Wash. — This town has a gas pump, a restaurant, a small store, a four-bedroom house and its own ZIP code, 98859.

And in a few weeks — after being listed for sale on eBay — it’ll have new owners. It’s a story of the travails of selling property on the site, the winning bidder backing out and finally a couple stepping up who had previously fallen in love with the town.

It takes an unusual person to try to flip a town on an auction Web site. It takes unusual people, too, to buy this isolated place that’s surrounded by cattle ranches, vast stretches of evergreens, grazing land and the occasional sagebrush rolling along Highway 20.

LINDEN, Wis. — Billions of years before April 14, two asteroids collided somewhere in outer space, sending a rock on a path that ultimately led to Kevin Wasley’s farm field.

It took much less time to nudge the orbits of meteorite hunters careening to southwestern Wisconsin where their zeal for tiny black rocks from outer space has created quite a sensation and boosted business in nearby communities.

It started with a fireball seen and heard by residents across a wide swath of southern Wisconsin and captured on numerous video cameras. Wasley, a beef farmer, heard a rumble and bang and wondered what the heck the noise was. He found out after tuning in to the news the next day.

2 billion computers may not be enough Getting laptops to kids in the developing world proves problematic

By Randall Stross New York Times News Service

One Laptop Per Child is a nonprofit group that thinks big.

Since 2007, it has sold inexpensive but rugged laptop computers to the governments of less-developed countries.

The goal is to equip each of the 2 billion children in the developing world with his or her own computer.

It’s been slow going. About 1.6 million of the group’s laptops have been distributed to date, said Matt Keller, vice president for global advocacy at the OLPC Foundation, based in Cambridge, Mass.

Today, the largest concentrations are in Uruguay, at around 400,000, and Peru, at 280,000, followed by Rwanda (110,000) and Haiti and Mongolia (15,000 each).

In 2006, the OLPC Web site pitched its laptop as a technology that “could revolutionize how we educate the world’s children.”

Today, the “R” word is gone.

Now the site speaks in more muted language of “developing an essential resource — educated, empowered children.”

“The biggest obstacle to our spreading the dream is cost,” Keller said.

Ninety percent of the machines have been paid for by the recipient countries’ governments, whose resources are extremely limited.

When asked if project leaders had reconsidered the “per child” part of the program.Keller said that such a change was out of the question. “One-on-one, child-to-

“Studies of PCs in schools are mixed, at best. Most show that a good school with good teachers can do positive things with PCs, but that PCs don’t fix bad schools.”

— Kentaro Toyama, computerscience researcher and former Microsoft employee laptop — the interactive nature of that experience is the heart of what we do,” he said.

When a child owns a laptop, he added, the school day is effectively extended from a few hours to 12 to 14 hours — however long the child is awake, and wherever he or she happens to be.

Lessons from India Some Microsoft researchers in India have investigated how to give those same children better use of PCs that are already in place, even though one machine is shared by many.

In one project, Microsoft’s programmers developed software that added multiple cursors on the screen, each controlled by a separate mouse. Software written for the paradigm allows students to compete or collaborate on multiple-choice questions.

It was well received in schools, and Microsoft turned it into a free product called MultiPoint.

“We jokingly call it ‘One Mouse Per Child,’” said Kentaro Toyama, who led the project while he spent five years in the Technology for Emerging Markets group at Microsoft Research India.

Toyama, who received a computer-science doctorate at Yale, left Microsoft last December is now a research fellow at the School of Information at the University of California, Berkeley.

He has been giving talks at American universities about the “technological utopianism” that he sees in initiatives like One Laptop Per Child. He says such initiatives rest upon a myth that “technology is the bottleneck in developing countries.”

‘No silver bullet’ But lots of other things are bottlenecks, too, Toyama says — including institutional limitations, economics, the basic service infrastructure and politics.

Nor is technology synonymous with education.

“Initially, we had the idea that PCs could make up for teacher absenteeism or poor training,” he said. “But studies of PCs in schools are mixed, at best. Most show that a good school with good teachers can do positive things with PCs, but that PCs don’t fix bad schools.”

Keller said of Toyama’s remarks: “There is no silver bullet, he’s right.” But he argued that literacy skills and access to information were prerequisites for economic and political growth and that “technology can help foster these things.”

House passes college-savings measure

By David Goldstein McClatchy-Tribune News Service

WASHINGTON — A bill to make it easier to safely save for college passed the U.S. House of Representatives this week.

If adopted by the Senate and signed by President Barack Obama, families would be able save as they can now in what are known as 529 plans, but with their money protected in federally insured bank accounts.

The bill’s author, Rep. Emanuel Cleaver, D-Mo., said the measure would be “a great blessing to a lot of parents and grandparents who want to save money for a child or a grandchild.”

Right now, they have two choices: prepaid college tuition plans, which lock in some major college costs, and college savings plans, which invest in stocks and other securities.

Both are sponsored by states and named after Section 529 of the tax code, which authorizes them.

The money is taxed before de-

posit, then remains tax-free.

Cleaver said the problem is the college savings plan investments can become victims of the financial markets, leaving families with big losses and lifelong dreams threatened.

Indeed, the bottom dropped out those plans during the current recession. Cleaver said many lost as much as half their value, according to the Missouri Bankers Association.

“Not only did we lose money,

we also saw a reduction in the number of college savings plans,” he said.

His legislation would allow a parent, student or another family member to set up a bank account for the funds, guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

Cleaver said the bill was also significant because both parties worked together to pass it at a time when partisan fever runs high on Capitol Hill.

Scott Yu had the strongest possible credentials: a perfect SAT score, a perfect high school transcript and conservatoryquality piano skills. But his first foray into college admissions, an “early-action” application to Stanford, landed in limbo with a deferral.

His faith shaken, Yu responded the way any straight-A student would, with a flurry of work. He applied to every college in the Ivy League, along with Duke, MIT, Washington University in St. Louis, the University of Maryland and the New England Conservatory in Boston.

For his efforts, the Rockville, Md., teen reaped 12 offers of admission. He now faces a notvery-painful choice among Harvard, Yale and MIT. Yu, 18, a senior in a science and math magnet program in Silver Spring, Md., represents a new generation of college applicant. Spooked by single-digit admission rates at the top private schools, students sweeten the odds by applying to more of them. And thus, the applicant pool runneth over.

Harvard and beyond Harvard, the nation’s oldest college, crossed a symbolic threshold this year when it received more than 30,000 applications for about 1,600 seats in its freshman class. With 1.5 million students expected to enter four-year colleges this fall, that means roughly one in 50 applied to Harvard. Brown University passed the same milestone this year, Stanford last year.

One-fifth of college applicants nationwide apply to seven or more schools, twice the rate of a decade ago, according to data from the National Association for College Admission Counseling.

Students apply to more

schools partly because they can: Today’s online applications are more easily replicated than the paper forms of previous decades. But that’s not the only factor.

The biggest surge has come at the most selective schools, where fewer than half of applicants gain admission. Students apply to twice as many schools as their parents did, on the theory that they are half as likely to get in.

Admission rates fell this year to 6.9 percent at Harvard, 7.2 percent at Stanford, 7.5 percent at Yale, 8.2 percent at Princeton, 9.2 percent at Columbia and 9.3 percent at Brown. As recently as 2003, when fewer students competed for the same number of seats, all of those schools admitted more than 10 percent of applicants.

Is it a good idea?

Is there any harm in applying to colleges en masse? Counselors and deans are divided.

The fundamentals of admission advice have not changed.

Most students are counseled to apply to at least three schools: one that is deemed a “match,” a less selective “safety” school and a more selective “reach.”

Two of each would not be deemed excessive.

“I say four to six. I used to say three to five. They end up applying to six to eight,” said Robin Groelle, director of college counseling at St. Stephen’s Episcopal School in Bradenton, Fla. Some students apply scattershot to top schools, without regard for “fit” or “match.” They raise their chances of getting in somewhere. They might also be wasting their time.

“It’s more work for us, and it’s more work for the colleges,” said Timothy Gallen, director of college counseling at the private Solebury School in New Hope, Pa. “It’s playing the game, more than anything.”

Scott Yu, 18, a senior at Montgomery Blair High School in Silver Spring, Md., was accepted to 12 selective colleges.

He’s part of a trend of high schoolers submitting multiple applications.

T S NEW EPA RULE

Contractors required to use more care around lead paint

By Matthew Daly The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Contractors across the country must take additional precautions when renovating houses where children could be exposed to lead dust from old paint, a safety measure that could add thousands of dollars to projects just as the remodeling industry tries to recover from the recession.

A federal rule that takes effect today forces contractors to use “lead-safe” practices when working on homes, day-care centers and schools built before 1978, the year lead paint was banned for residential use because of health risks.

Many contractors complain that the government has not provided enough trainers to help them meet the deadline and want it extended.

“The country is not ready for this,” said Donna Shirey, president of Shirey Contracting in Issaquah, Wash., and the chairwoman of a remodelers council for the National Association of Home Builders.

About 800 NAHB members were in Washington for the group’s spring meeting and many were making an eleventhhour attempt to lobby lawmakers for a delay for the rule.

The Environmental Protection Agency issued the lead-paint rule in 2008 because more than a million American children a year are at risk of being poisoned by lead-based paint in their homes, leading to learning disorders and behavioral problems, EPA spokesman Dale Kemery said.

Two years was adequate time to prepare and the agency is sticking to its timetable, Kemery said.

Obama, senators meet on high court vacancy

By Peter Baker

President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden met Wednesday with Senate leaders to discuss the Supreme Court vacancy.

New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama has accelerated his search for a new Supreme Court justice, talking with several candidates and reaching out to lawmakers as he tries to select a replacement for the retiring Justice John Paul Stevens within the next two weeks.

Obama met with Senate leaders from both parties on Wednesday and called nine other senators from the judiciary committee, but offered no public hints about which way he was leaning.

The only insight the president gave into his thinking was to say that he has no abortion litmus test but wants a justice who favors women’s rights, including “bodily integrity.”

Unlike his White House chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel, who this week predicted a “big fight” over confirmation, Obama said in an interview with CNBC and The New York Times that he would pick “somebody who will be confirmable” and forecast “a

smooth confirmation process.”

He added that he was “confident in the next couple weeks we’re going to be able to make a decision.”

Having just gone through this process last year when he nominated Sonia Sotomayor, Obama already has several front-runners in mind, most notably Solicitor General Elena Kagan, advisers said. But he has instructed his staff to examine 10 candidates so that he can make sure he has looked at all the options and has a fuller understanding of the total field of potential nominees.

While most of the 10 candidates do not have much chance of being selected this time out,

advisers said one reason to look at so many was to have a stable of potential nominees ready in case another seat becomes vacant sooner than expected. The White House is preparing for the situation that President George W. Bush faced in 2005, when he suddenly had two seats to fill at once after Justice Sandra Day O’Connor retired and Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist died.

Four of Justice Stevens’ colleagues are over 70, and some have had health problems, and although none has given any indication recently about considering retirement, Obama could very well have a third vacancy before his term is over.

LOUISIANA OIL RIG EXPLOSION

Coast Guard searching for 11 workers

By Kevin McGill The Associated Press

NEW ORLEANS — The Coast Guard by sea and air planned to search overnight for 11 workers missing since a thunderous explosion rocked an oil drilling platform that continued to burn late Wednesday, more than a day since it sent a fireball into the night sky.

Seventeen people were injured, four critically.

Nearly 100 other workers made it aboard a supply boat

and were expected to reach shore by early today. The blast Tuesday night aboard the Deepwater Horizon rig 50 miles off the Louisiana coast could prove to be one of the nation’s deadliest offshore drilling accidents of the past half-century.

The Coast Guard held out hope that the missing workers escaped in one of the platform’s covered lifeboats. Lt. Sue Kerver said the cutters Cobia and Zephyr were in the Gulf searching for survivors along

with three Coast Guard aircraft and a civilian helicopter. She said the search would continue overnight.

Authorities could not say when the flames might die out on the 400-by-250-foot rig, which is roughly twice the size of a football field, according the Web site of rig owner Transocean Ltd. A column of boiling black smoke rose hundreds of feet over the Gulf of Mexico as fireboats shot streams of water at the blaze.

2 N. Koreans accused of assassination plot SEOUL, South Korea — South Korean security officials said Wednesday that they had arrested two North Korean agents who had posed as defectors in a plot to assassinate the highest-ranking North Korean defector by slitting his throat.

The defector, Hwang Jangyop, a former North Korean Workers’ Party secretary, has bitterly criticized the North Korean leader, Kim Jong-il, since his defection in 1997. Hwang tutored Kim and helped create the country’s ruling philosophy of juche, or national self-reliance.

North Korea has called Hwang, 87, a traitor and “human scum.” He has received several death threats, including a package sent anonymously in 2006 that contained an ax stuck to his picture and splashed with red paint. The package was sent to a South Korean radio station that carried Hwang’s speeches.

Meteorites Continued from A1 The next sound associated with the meteorite was a knock on Wasley’s farmhouse door Sunday morning from a man and his young son asking permission to search his property.

Since then, it’s pretty much been nonstop.

“Me and the neighbors, we’re half laughing — like what are all these people doing here? It’s like the gold rush,” Wasley said Tuesday morning as he stopped to talk to meteorite hunters parked on the rural road next to his property. He has seen license plates from Colorado, New Mexico, Missouri, Minnesota, Iowa and Illinois.

Ruben Garcia hopped in his van and drove here as soon as heard about the fireball. Garcia, a professional meteorite hunter who calls himself “Mr. Meteorite,” lives in Arizona. Garcia was joined by other members of his crew who flew in from Oregon and Washington state, booking flights into La Crosse within 24 hours after the fireball lighted up the social networks of meteorite fanatics.

So far, the group hasn’t found many meteorites. Rob Wesel, of Portland, picked up the largest piece discovered as of Tuesday afternoon — 219 grams. “I almost tripped over it,” he said.

Hard-core hunters To get to this spot took more than just guesswork. Mike Bandli of Puyallup, Wash., knew about the fireball turning the southern Wisconsin sky into daylight within five minutes. Bandli checked Twitter feeds, and within an hour thousands of tweets had blasted the blogosphere — highly unusual for what’s known as a “witness fireball.”

“This one had major potential.

It’s not your traditional fireball — it was shallow, which means its debris could be spread out 20 to 80 miles,” said Bandli, who checked Doppler radar to find

the meteorite’s path and plotted it on maps.

Most meteorites burn up before landing on Earth. Those that don’t mostly fall where they’re not seen, such as into oceans. So when a flaming meteorite makes such a big splash, so to speak, and is seen by so many people, it attracts most of the hard-core meteorite hunters and collectors.

Jim Schwade of Kankakee, Ill., has amassed a large meteorite collection during two decades plus of searching and collecting.

He has exchanged meteorites over the years with the Field Museum in Chicago, the Smithsonian Institution and Arizona State University.

“I’ve always been interested in space and I built rockets when I was young, but to own a piece of an asteroid is tremendously exciting,” said Schwade, who drove up from Illinois a few days ago and brought along a bicycle to help him get around.

His search had been unsuccessful as of Tuesday.

Why all the fuss?

Paul Sipiera, a curator at the Field Museum’s Pritzker Center for Meteoritics and Polar Studies, said Wisconsin’s meteorite has received worldwide attention and would normally draw international collectors.

But the volcano in Iceland has thwarted some meteorite enthusiasts from traveling from Europe.

So what’s the big deal?

“Think about it: This rock yesterday was more than 100,000 miles farther out in space than our moon, and today you’re holding it in your hand,” said Sipiera, who spent time in Wisconsin searching over the weekend and plans to return later this week. “I guess you can call it romantic.”

Their rarity also makes them valuable. Sipiera said the going price for meteorites like those being found now in southwestern Wisconsin are $5 to $10 per gram.

skies — and later to reopen them — against heated charges by airline chiefs that the decisions were based on flawed data or unsubstantiated fears.

The air space over most of Europe opened Wednesday after the vast, invisible ash-laden cloud dispersed to levels deemed safe.

Restrictions remained over parts of Britain, Ireland, France and the Scandinavian countries.

Pope vows to act on sexual abuse crisis VATICAN CITY — Pope Benedict XVI, making a rare direct comment on the sexual abuse crisis, promised Wednesday that the Roman Catholic Church would take action to deal with the widening scandal.

During his weekly audience here, Benedict told pilgrims and Pope Benedict tourists in St. Peter’s Square that he met with abuse victims during a recent trip to Malta and “assured them of church action.”

“I shared their suffering and emotionally prayed with them,” the pope said, describing his visit on Sunday with eight Maltese men who said they had been molested by priests as youths.

After that meeting, the Vatican issued a statement saying that the pope had told the men that the church would bring to justice those responsible and “implement effective measures designed to safeguard young people.”

It’s not like Fletcher will walk away with a huge profit.

After all the improvements to the property, paid for in part by a loan from her mom, Fletcher figures she’ll walk away with about $40,000 for all those hours of labor.

Still, the sale will enable Fletcher to pursue her latest dream, and for the Loves, as they explain, “to come off one mountain, cross the bridge and walk up that other mountain.”

Average, these people are not.

“It takes an adventurous spirit,” Fletcher said of buying Wauconda.

Said Maddie Love, “My husband and I are very unique.”

Fletcher says maybe 100 families live within 10 miles of Wauconda. That’s a long way from Wauconda’s peak population.

This is the third location of the town in Wauconda Pass, established in 1898, as it followed the fortunes of silver and gold miners.

According to the Okanogan County Historical Society, Wauconda in 1900 had 335 residents, three hotels, a store, boardinghouse and four saloons.

These days, in the busy summer months with tourists driving by, the restaurant employs maybe five people; in the winter, it’s a couple.

Locals stop by to pick up mail — the post office leases space and has one full-time employee — and to gas up, shop at the small store, maybe have coffee or on Fridays the all-you-can-eat $9.99 spaghetti and meatballs.

This is a place where one regular calls himself “Prospector Paul” and, when finding out you’re from the big city, has plenty to say about Big Government.

The store’s biggest-selling items, by the way, are beer (Busch is preferred, with 12-packs stacked beside the register), cigarettes, candy and pop.

Fletcher says she grossed $300,000 a year, with about $100,000 each coming from the gas pump, grocery and restaurant, and that she netted $40,000 to $50,000 a year.

When she bought Wauconda, she worked for a distributing company and delivered candy and tobacco to stores throughout the county, including the small town.

Fletcher, who had saved up money selling items on eBay — often clothing she had bought at thrift stores — owned a cabin in the area.

The previous owners of Wauconda, ready to retire, urged her to buy the place. She sold her cabin and plunged in.

She ended up running the restaurant herself and becoming a stress case.

“What do you do when 50 motorcycles show up all at once and order food?” Fletcher said. “People were very patient, but ... “

The bidding Selling a town on eBay is not so easy. Bids for property on the Web site are nonbinding, meaning any joker can submit an offer.

On March 3, after Fletcher paid a $200 fee, the listing went up: “Why buy a house when you can OWN YOUR OWN TOWN! Own the Post Office, OWN YOUR OWN ZIP CODE ... Single owner is tired and ready to retire ...

VERY LOW RESERVE PRICE OF $359,000 ... Please bid only if you will honor it.”

The bidding closed April 2.

In between, 112 bids came, with some individuals putting in offers many times.

Sure, Fletcher was nervous. “I was logging in three or four times a day,” she said. “I spent days answering questions.”

Fletcher got used to fielding all kinds of phone calls, like the apologetic one from the parents of a young boy. “The little kid had placed a bid, trying to surprise his parents by buying a town.”

Then there was the guy who flew in from New York, looked around, said he’d get back to Fletcher, and never did.

The auction caught the attention of media outlets.

“CNN picked it up, and it went worldwide,” she said. “I had people calling me from London, and Chinese people.”

With the initial news stories, people from the Northwest stopped by, like the two women from Spokane.

“They wanted to turn it into a happening night club,” Fletcher said. The women never got back to her.

But serious or not, the bidding continued.

The high bid of $370,601 was from David Broadbent, of Melbourne, Australia. Fletcher waited expectantly for a wire transfer for the 5 percent down payment.

C OV ER S T ORY Then Broadbent sent his regrets.

Contacted by phone, he said that during the time he was bidding, Maria, his longtime companion, had ended up in the hospital with some kind of illness.

Fletcher began going down the list of other bidders.

There were no replies from the top five bidders, lukewarm response from others.

Fletcher made contingency plans. Maybe she’d stay, but lease the restaurant.

The buyers Then came the call from the Loves.

They are enthusiastic riders of Harley-Davidsons, had ridden by the town in previous years, and loved its charm.

By the time the Loves first stopped by, the price for Wauconda had come down drastically.

In 2008, Fletcher had listed the town with a real estate agent — asking price, $1.1 million.

Well, you can dream about re-

ally flipping a town, can’t you?

Not surprisingly, there were no takers.

By 2009, the asking price was $495,000. The Loves were interested, kind of.

Maddie Love lost her job in late 2008 after more than two decades as a trade-show coordinator. Neal Love, who worked in telecommunications, lost his job in 2009.

Maybe it was time to make a big change.

When Maddie heard that Wauconda was up for auction, “I fell

to my knees and cried,” she said.

“Why didn’t we jump on it when we could have?”

When the eBay bids never came to fruition, the Loves decided it was time to climb that next mountain.

“We’re terrified. Neal almost puked the other night when we signed the paperwork,” Maddie said.

“Honest to God’s truth, we’re selling everything we own. We’re coming here with just the clothes on our backs.”

Housing Continued from A1 “If we were to keep our waiting list open all the time, there would be thousands of people on the list,” Cook said.

Nationally, about one in four people who qualify for federal housing vouchers receive one, according to the National Low Income Housing Coalition.

Under most housing vouchers, families who rent an approved apartment pay 30 percent of their income toward rent, with the rest of the costs picked up by the housing agency.

Last week, the Housing and Urban Development Department announced it would provide $8,417 in voucher aid to HousingWorks. That will pay for one month’s worth of vouchers for about 17 families, according to the agency.

President Barack Obama’s budget for next year proposes a $1.4 billion increase for rental assistance programs, to a total of $19.6 billion. That would assist 2.2 million households nationally, an increase of 34,000 families for this year, according to the proposed HUD budget.

In Central Oregon That would help HousingWorks, but would probably mean just a slight increase in funding locally, Cook said.

“I think that will increase our program by a couple hundred over the next couple of years,” Cook said. “If you think about 34,000 vouchers being spread out across America, chances are we’re not going to get a lot of those spread out across rural Central Oregon.”

Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., sits on the Senate Banking, Housing and Urban Development Committee, which oversees HUD. He’d like to see a bigger funding increase than the president proposed, but the budget environment won’t allow for much more spending, he said.

“I think we can expand on the president’s program, but if we’re realistic it’s not going to be an enormous amount over the president’s program,” Merkley said.

The administration is also proposing combining 13 separate voucher programs into three, to streamline the process for local housing authorities.

That might make it easier for people who move in search of a job to retain housing benefits, said Danna Fischer, legislative director for the Low Income Housing Coalition. That’s allowed now, but the process is “incredibly cumbersome,” Fischer said.

A big improvement would be “if HUD could streamline the program and get to some regional administration so tenants have mobility and the ability to move across an entire metro area and across the state in search of better housing and better jobs,” Fischer said.

The issue of federal strings that come with vouchers has kept HousingWorks from helping as many families as it could, said Cook.

“The best utilization of program dollars we had is when they give you a pot of money and you make the decision on how many people you help out with that pot of money,” Cook said. “What they’ve done over the past eight years or nine years is they’ve really tied you to numbers” and formulas for spending the money.

The lottery system For now, the agency uses a lottery to select people from its waiting list. It recently issued 260 rental vouchers. HousingWorks settled on the lottery rather than a first-come, first-served system so that potential applicants wouldn’t be scared off.

“Imagine you walk in the door and you’re going to sign up for a voucher: if you’re told you’re number 10,022 on a list, you’re pretty defeated,” Cook said. “We made a decision to have our waiting list for a finite period of a time so we could get people housed in the next year to 18 months.”

NATO apologizes for fatal shooting of unarmed Afghans

By Richard A. Oppel Jr. New York Times News Service

KABUL — NATO apologized Wednesday for shooting to death four unarmed Afghan civilians this week in Khost Province and acknowledged that it had wrongly described two of the victims as “known insurgents.”

The shootings on Monday evening were the latest occasion in

which Afghan civilians had been killed by military convoys at NATO or American checkpoints, or in bungled Special Operations raids. The spate of civilian deaths have infuriated Afghan leaders and undermined the West’s war plan just as it is about to enter its most crucial phase — a planned summer offensive in Kandahar.

NATO military officials said

Wednesday that they were rushing to deploy training teams across Afghanistan so troops could “implement critical lessons learned from previous incidents.”

But in some parts of the country, American and NATO convoys are already considered by Afghans to be as dangerous a threat as Taliban checkpoints

and roadside bombs, raising questions about whether the damage can be reversed to any real degree.

“People hate the international forces,” said Bakhtialy, a tribal elder in Kandahar who, like many Afghans, goes by one name. “Their presence at the moment is too risky for ordinary people. They are killing people,

and they don’t let people travel on the road.”

In the shooting on Monday, a NATO convoy opened fire on a Toyota carrying four men returning home about 6 p.m. in a rural district near the border with Pakistan. Local Afghan officials said the four men were civilians and included a police officer and a 12-year-old boy.

Commission

TONY DEBONE Age: 43 Party: Republican Residence: La Pine Family: Wife, Kathy; one son Employment: IT support/ software developer Political, community experience: Currently chairman of the board at the La Pine Park and Recreation District, board member at La Pine Rodeo Association

Continued from A1 As of Wednesday, DeBone had raised $7,338 and spent $6,324, according to Oregon’s online Secretary of State records, while Luke had raised $5,618 and spent $4,943.

DeBone touts recreation DeBone, who owns the information technology and computer services business Little d Technology with his wife in La Pine, has said he would bring a different perspective to the commission, since he does not have a background in construction.

Luke is a former home builder, Commissioner Alan Unger worked as a general contractor and Commissioner Tammy Baney’s former in-laws own Baney Corp., which opened The Oxford Hotel in downtown Bend in January.

DeBone worked as an observatory operator and software engineer for the U.S. Air Force in Hawaii. While DeBone lived there, recreation was an important part of his life and he and his wife, Kathy DeBone, were active in the Nakaiewalu Canoe Club. Now, Tony DeBone is chair of the La Pine Park and Recreation District board and a board member at La Pine Rodeo Association.

Tony and Kathy DeBone worked hard to finally get voters to approve a permanent tax base for the park district, which formed in 1990 without a source of funding. It was the district’s sixth attempt to get voters to approve a tax, and the tax allowed the district to finally hire a director.

Recreation is one way the county can improve its economy, said DeBone, who has focused his campaign on job creation, much like other commission candidates. County commissioners should do everything possible to push for a scenic bikeway to connect local cities, an idea generated in 2007 by a committee formed by Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore. to consider Deschutes County’s recreational assets.

“We know we’re a premier bike destination, and we should be capitalizing on that more,” DeBone said.

DeBone has said if he is elected to the County Commission, he would push for incentive packages to attract small businesses or technology firms.

But DeBone opposes extending 19th Street south from Redmond to Deschutes Junction, a project Luke and Unger have said would help development in south Redmond and Juniper Ridge.

DeBone says the extension is not necessary right now because other industrial land is available.

The La Pine Industrial Park still has land available and the Bend Municipal Airport has space for businesses, DeBone said. “Adding the new infrastructure for Juniper Ridge can’t be a priority right now.”

At the same time, destination resorts are a good use of private land in Deschutes County, DeBone said, and he supports a county Planning Commission recommendation that would make more property eligible for resort applications.

Allan Jones, a real estate agent at Central Oregon Realty in La Pine, served on the county Planning Commission and knows DeBone. “He’s a fine local busi-

DENNIS LUKE Age: 63 Party: Republican Residence: Bend Family: Wife, Joanne; two sons (one deceased) Employment: Deschutes County Commissioner Political, community experience: State legislator for six years, Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Oregon board member for about a decade, scoutmaster with Boy Scouts of American for a decade, currently a board member for the National Guard’s Oregon Youth Challenge Program, current president of Central Oregon Youth Investment Foundation, currently on the board of directors for the United Way of Deschutes County, currently on the state Department of Land Conservation and Development’s local officials advisory committee

nessman, competent at work and concerned about the public,” Jones said. “He might not have as much experience as a politician, but I’d rather not have that.”

Luke focuses on public safety, roads Luke, who has called himself the “institutional memory” of the County Commission, was first elected to the commission in 1998. Before he ran for office, Luke worked as a home builder, serving as president of the Oregon Home Builders Association in 1991.

He was elected in 1992 to the first of three terms in the Oregon state House, and he ran for County Commissioner after he reached the term limit there.

Luke said his priorities have been public safety services, improving state and local roads and squirreling away money in county reserve funds to prepare for a recession. That has allowed the county to largely avoid major cuts in services, despite sharp declines in some revenues.

Twice in the past decade, Luke supported major financial measures at the Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office. He voted to put a permanent tax measure on the 2006 ballot to pay for sheriff’s services and then campaigned to get it passed. Now, Sheriff Larry Blanton is asking voters to approve an approximately $44 million jail expansion bond. Luke voted to put the measure on the ballot, and said he has attended two of Blanton’s town hall forums to support the bond.

Luke’s work on another of his top priorities, road projects, is a source of pride for him. He often launches into anecdotes on his collaboration with the Oregon Department of Transportation.

Luke said he made it a top priority to pay for the Deschutes Market Road overpass across the

C OV ER S T OR I ES Burlington Northern Sante Fe Railway. The project improved safety by eliminating an at-grade railroad crossing and helped traffic flow, Luke said.

However, Luke’s support for road projects has also displeased some residents and a land-use watchdog group. Residents and an attorney for Central Oregon LandWatch said they felt Luke ignored their concerns about the proposed 19th Street extension south from Redmond to Deschutes Junction. Luke voted to add that project to the county’s future road development plan, and the motion passed with Unger’s support.

Larry Kimmel, vice president Bend Oil, was on the county budget committee for 13 years, where he worked with Luke. Luke always researched the budget and “knew his subject matter cold,” and he pushed to save money for tough financial times, Kimmel said.

“That was always one of Dennis’ platforms, that it wasn’t always going to be like it was in our heyday,” Kimmel said.

South county voters could be important One issue DeBone and Luke have chosen not to focus on in their campaigns could nonetheless play a critical role in the primary. In July 2008, Luke and Baney, who is also running for reelection this year, approved an ordinance known as the local rule.

It required property owners in the south county to prevent nitrates from seeping into the groundwater from septic systems, but residents raised concerns about the cost of methods such as septic system upgrades that the ordinance required. A group called the Deschutes County Citizens Action Group got a referendum on the ballot, and voters repealed the ordinance in March 2009.

While Luke and Baney both voted for the ordinance, many residents felt Luke’s approach “left us with a bad taste in our mouths,” DeBone said. For example, Luke threatened to shut down a March 2008 hearing on the local rule ordinance at the La Pine High School, after one woman’s comment that residents would “no longer tolerate your dictatorial attitude” drew a burst of applause from the audience.

Robert Ray, a south county resident, said Baney took a different approach at the meeting, and throughout the local rule process.

“Tammy was just trying to listen to everyone’s point of view,” Ray said. “I think that Dennis has a serious problem down here, and Tammy not so much.”

Luke said south county residents have a right to disagree with his approach to the nitrate issue.

“I’ve worked with people south of Sunriver on a lot of different issues and I have a lot of friends down there,” Luke said. “If (residents) weren’t happy with the way I worked on that issue, it’s their right to feel that way.”

Biometrics Continued from A1 Until recently, it also might have seemed as futuristic as a Steven Spielberg movie thriller.

Two U.S. senators prominent in immigration reform efforts have proposed that all Americans be issued biometric Social Security cards, containing codified data f rom either a fingerprint or retinal scan to help employers determine whether the holder is legal.

In explaining the only current bipartisan reform proposal, Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., has called such a high-tech Social Security card “a linchpin” in efforts to win support in Congress for fixing an immigration enforcement system that many agree is broken.

Immigrant advocates are pushing for action on immigration reform this year, and the Obama administration has expressed support.

Privacy concerns While details are still sketchy, Schumer and Sen. Lindsay Graham, R-S.C., have proposed that the new Social Security card be swiped by employers through a machine to match a fingerprint or some other personal biometric feature against data stored on computers. Those who refuse to cooperate or otherwise knowingly hire unauthorized workers would face fines and even prison.

Privacy groups call the idea chilling, and costly. Last week, 44 organizations sent a letter of protest to the White House and both senators, arguing that implementation of

fied through surveillance footage at the cathedral, police said Wednesday. She and William Scott, 32, were believed to have been the last two people with Nathaniel Fons, and they were also suspected of being involved in the counterfeiting operation in Florida where his mother was charged.

On Wednesday, Nathaniel remained in the custody of child services officials in New York.

a biometric card could cost “hundreds of billions of dollars.”

Chris Calabrese, legislative counsel for the American Civil Liberties Union, labeled the proposal a form of “mission creep” that would pull the country down a dangerous path.

“We think that card would quickly spread to other purposes from voting to gun ownership to travel, and it will really be a permission slip for participating in American life,” Calabrese said.

Schumer and Graham have taken pains to address the privacy concerns.

In an outline published last month in The Washington Post, they said biometric information would only be stored on the card and not warehoused in any government database, though critics argue that biometric information would have to be stored somewhere to prevent identity fraud or to confirm a person’s identity in the event of a lost Social Security card.

The cards would not contain private information or tracking devices, the legislators asserted.

In a rare meeting of minds, some advocates on both sides of the combative reform debate are open to the idea.

A flawed system The embrace of the biometric Social Security card idea lies at least partly in frustrations surrounding the E-verify system, a 13-year-old federal program that is mandated for employers by some states.

Nearly 200,000 companies use E-verify, with about 1,000 new employers signing up per week, U.S. officials say. Last September, the Obama administration began requiring that 26,500 federal contractors and subcontractors sign up.

The E-verify software system checks an employee’s identifica-

tion by matching the documents provided by that worker against Social Security Administration records. In cases where there is a “mismatch,” the worker has eight days to prove their identity or risk being fired.

But in 4 percent of cases, the system wrongly flags legal workers for potential fraud. And in a January evaluation for the Department of Homeland Security, it failed to flag illegal workers using fake IDs more than half the time.

Workers rebel In Chicago, anger over the system fueled a protest earlier this month in front of UPS’s distribution center on the Near West Side. There, workers fired for refusing to submit their IDs to be electronically confirmed were among a small crowd staging a 24-hour “hunger strike.”

UPS spokesman Norman Black said the Atlanta-based company of 340,000 employees is required as a federal contractor to use E-verify. “I had to do (submit to verification) it. Everybody in headquarters had to do it. Everybody in the country had to do it,” Black said.

The dispute illustrated a quandary for employers, who find themselves navigating between immigration laws and federal labor and discrimination laws.

In recent years, many companies have been accused of overreacting to E-verify by grilling workers whose names were flagged, or pre-emptively firing them before they had a chance to prove they’re legal.

DETROIT — General Motors repaid a government loan, and Chrysler posted improved quarterly results on Wednesday — proof, the companies said, that they were turning their operations around.

Reacting to the automakers’ progress, the Obama administration issued a report projecting that taxpayers would lose significantly less than previously forecast from the billions of dollars in government loans that bailed out the companies last year.

Chrysler said Wednesday that it lost $3.8 billion in 2009 after emerging from bankruptcy in June, and posted a loss of $197 million for its first quarter this year. But excluding onetime items, mostly interest payments, it earned $143 million.

Executives said the company had increased its cash reserves by $1.5 billion since January and that its operations were on track to break even or earn a profit this year.

Meanwhile, General Motors said it finished repaying the $8.2 billion loan plus interest that it owed the American and Canadian governments. It began showing a new television commercial telling consumers the money had been paid back and urging shoppers to “take a look at the new GM.”

Fearing trademark lawsuit, restaurant picks new name Former 5 Spice isn’t the first Bend business to find itself facing a costly naming dispute

GM repays loan; Chrysler improving

By David Holley The Bulletin

After operating as 5 Spice Fusion & Sushi Bar for only four months, the downtown Bend restaurant is changing its name, fearing a potential legal spat with a Lake Oswego business operating under a similar alias.

Lilian Chu, co-owner of the Bend sushi bar, changed her restaurant’s name to 5 Fusion & Sushi Bar on Wednesday to resolve the conflict, and to avoid paying the thousands of dollars in legal fees it would take to fight for the name 5 Spice, a reference to the Chinese cook-

ing mixture. Chu retained an attorney after the Lake Oswego business, Five Spice Seafood + Wine Bar, requested earlier this month that the Bend-based sushi business change its name because of a potential trademark infringement.

Chu initially planned to try to keep her restaurant’s name because it is located about 150 miles away from the Lake Oswego business, spells its name with “5” instead of “Five” and maintains a different menu, she said. But even if Chu had a case, she said her attorney told her that litigation could cost as much as $100,000.

See Trademark / B5

Naming your business Business owners who have faced costly trademark litigation, as well as trademark attorneys, both recommend having an attorney or a third-party professional research your potential business name nationally to determine if there’s any potential conflict with a preexisting business.

Both groups say it saves money in the long run.

Business owners can search themselves through the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office Web site, through each state’s secretary of state and via online search engines, but that likely won’t unearth everything, said Mike Heilbronner, a trademark attorney in Portland.

“If you only rely on databases, you’re probably missing out,” he said.

DROUGHT-PROOF?

Panel subpoenas Moody’s documents WASHINGTON — A congressional panel said Wednesday that it had issued a subpoena to the credit-rating agency Moody’s Investors Service after the firm failed to promptly respond to its request for documents and e-mail messages.

The subpoena suggested an intensified activity by the bipartisan panel, known as the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission, which was created to examine the causes of the financial crisis.

It was the first such subpoena issued by the panel, which was created last year and is required to complete its findings

by Dec. 15. The panel has been criticized for getting off to a slow start and being unfocused in its inquiry, given the wide scope of its mandate.

Boeing profit beats expectations SEATTLE — Boeing Co. posted a first-quarter profit Wednesday that beat analysts’ estimates as higher operating margins for commercial planes helped compensate for a drop in jet deliveries and the loss of a health-care tax benefit.

Net income fell 15 percent to $519 million, or 70 cents a share, from $610 million, or 86 cents, in the year-earlier quarter, Chicago-based Boeing said in a statement Wednesday. The average estimate of 20 analysts surveyed by Bloomberg was 64 cents. Sales fell 7.8 percent to $15.2 billion.

Founder of online men’s clothing store faces lawsuit alleging fraud The Trunk Club was formerly based in Bend

By Andrew Moore The Bulletin

Joanna Van Vleck, the founder of The Trunk Club LLC, a formerly Bend-based online men’s clothing retailer that was featured last year on NBC’s “The Today Show” and in other national media, has been sued in Deschutes County Circuit Court for alledgedly making fraudulent claims about the company to investors.

Three separate suits have been filed this month, all seeking damages for alleged securities fraud. In addition, the state Division of Finance and Corporate Securities said it has opened an investigation into Van Vleck.

Van Vleck resigned from The Trunk Club on Dec. 9, according to one suit.

Two messages left for Van Vleck were not returned. Her attorney, Denver-based Tarek Saad, told The Bulletin it’s too early to comment on the cases and that they are still under review.

Van Vleck’s company, which she founded in late 2008, used webcams to connect men with Trunk Club “experts” who were based around the country. The experts would ascertain what the clients’ clothing likes and needs were and then purchase clothes for them and ship them to the client. The client paid for what he liked and returned what he didn’t free-of-cost.

Big ag companies are racing to be the leader in huge market for drought-resistant seeds

By Jack Kaskey and Antonio Ligi Bloomberg News

Lance Russell’s neighbors aren’t used to seeing corn growing in the fields around Hays, Kansas, where the plants tend to wither and keel over in the hot, dry summers. They may be in for a surprise this summer.

Russell is planting DuPont Co.’s drought-tolerant corn, one of the seeds heading to market next year that’s de-

signed to thrive where water is scarce.

An experimental plot in 2009 improved on the economics of the sorghum crop “by a landslide,” Russell said.

Monsanto Co., DuPont and Syngenta AG are vying for a similar windfall. After battling for a decade to corner the $11 billion market for insect-resistant and herbicide-tolerant technologies, the world’s biggest seed companies are vying to develop crops that can survive

drought. At stake is a new global market that may top $2.7 billion for the corn version alone.

“It’s a race at the moment,” said Juergen Reck, an analyst at Macquarie Group Ltd. “They must see market potential.”

The technology will have wide-ranging effects, from helping farmers draw less irrigation water to lowering insurance premiums and boosting land values in drought-prone regions, agricultural economists say. The seeds also may increase corn plantings in the Great Plains at the expense of wheat and sorghum while altering the market for biofuels.

Tawna Feske was befuddled when she showed up at the American Laser Center in Bend on April 9 for an appointment and found the door locked.

Subsequent calls to the clinic, at 2065 N.E. Williamson Court, that day and the following week went unanswered and a call to the corporate office in Farmington Hills, Mich., left her with the impression she would have to drive to Tacoma, Wash., to finish her treatment.

“I was probably in a better position than some, because I was toward the end of my contract, but I mostly feel bad for people that probably paid over $1,000 and are now out on their butts,” Feske said. “I understand in this economy it might be hard to keep the doors open for what’s essentially a luxury service, but I hope there is some form of recourse.”

WASHINGTON — Senate Republicans and Democrats predicted on Wednesday that Congress would soon pass a far-reaching overhaul of the nation’s financial regulatory system, indicating a potentially swift resolution of the latest partisan firefight on Capitol Hill.

But the sides offered starkly different reasons for their optimism. Republicans said that they had forced Democrats back to the bargaining table to negotiate a bipartisan accord, while Democrats said that Republicans were hastily abandoning

their opposition in fear of public outcry.

Senate Republicans reported progress in negotiating changes to the bill. But they did not point to any specific concessions they had won and Democrats said they made none.

As the legislation gained momentum, a first crack appeared in the Republican wall of opposition on Wednesday when Sen. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, voted with Democrats on the Senate Agriculture Committee in favor of imposing tougher rules for derivatives, the complex securities that were at the heart of the 2008 financial crisis.

Goldman execs to testify before Senate panel The government’s case against Goldman Sachs is about to get its first public airing, in what could be a dramatic preview of the legal battle to come.

On Tuesday, the Goldman Sachs trader accused of fraud by federal regulators, Fabrice Tourre, and at least three of the bank’s top executives will testify before a Senate panel to defend the firm’s business activities and reputation, people briefed on the proceedings said Wednesday.

The Goldman executives agreeing to appear before the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations include the firm’s finance chief, David Viniar, and its chief risk officer, Craig Broderick, the people briefed on the matter said.

They will join their chief executive, Lloyd Blankfein, whose plan to appear was already widely known.

Several senior managers in Goldman’s mortgage unit, which is at the center of the government’s civil case, have also agreed to testify, these people said.

That Goldman is sending so many of its employees to testify before the panel underscores the lengths to which it will go to restore its tarnished image and de-

clining share price.

Their testimony will put a spotlight on a case that has already become a subject of political acrimony.

On Tuesday, Republican members of the House oversight committee released a statement accusing the Securities and Exchange Commission of political motivations in its pursuit of a case against Goldman.

They suggested that the action was timed to coincide with the Democrats’ effort to pass new financial regulations, and they demanded information about any coordination the agency might have had with the White House to affect the timing of the suit.

The commission’s chairwoman, Mary Schapiro, issued a response on Wednesday stating: “The SEC is an independent law enforcement agency. We do not coordinate our enforcement actions with the White House, Congress or political committees. We do not time our cases around political events or the legislative calendar.”

President Barack Obama also addressed charges of collusion in an appearance on CNBC on Wednesday. The SEC, he said, “never discussed with us anything with respect to the charges that will be brought.”

Continued from B1 The Trunk Club is now based in Chicago. Company CEO Brian Spaly said in a statement e-mailed to The Bulletin that the company is “privileged to be moving forward with new, experienced leadership and a capital investment that will strengthen the company. We believe that the market for personalized apparel shopping is large and unmet, and that Trunk Club will revolutionize and lead this rapidly growing segment.”

The suits were filed by Timothy Lynch, a private investor; Anthos Capital, a San Mateo, Calif.-based private equity fund; and The Trunk Club Inc., the successor company to the limited liability company.

In its suit, Anthos Capital says Van Vleck committed securities fraud by misrepresenting the company’s existing ownership when she was soliciting investment capital and also misstated the company’s financial health. Anthos’ suit says Van Vleck inflated revenues by treating business loans as income and not liabilities, and also failed to disclose total liabilities of more than $220,000.

Anthos invested $750,000 in The Trunk Club Inc., in November 2009. The firm now alleges its investment is worthless, and is seeking damages for the same amount.

Messages left at Anthos’ office were not returned.

Bend-based attorney Ed Merrill, who filed all three suits on behalf of the plaintiffs, said he cannot comment on the suits.

The suit brought by The Trunk Club Inc., the successor company, also alleges Van Vleck committed fraud and breach of fiduciary duty and asks the court to order Van Vleck to cease professing any affiliation with the company and to turn over ownership of the company’s Internet domain names.

Lynch’s suit says he is out $50,000 after investing in the company, believing his stock purchase would have made him a 10 percent owner in the company. The suit alleges that because Van Vleck did not disclose all of the company’s liabilities and inflated its financial health, the company needs to be recapitalized, essentially making his shares worthless.

So strong was the anti-business sentiment for the first Earth Day in 1970 that organizers took no money from corporations and held teach-ins “to challenge corporate and government leaders.”

Forty years later, the day has turned into a premiere marketing platform for selling everything from office products to Greek yogurt to eco-dentistry.

For this year’s celebration, Bahama Umbrella is touting its specially designed umbrella, with a drain so that water “can be stored, reused and recycled.”

Gray Line, a New York City sightseeing company, will keep running its buses on fossil fuels.

But the company is promoting an “Earth Week” package of day trips to green spots like the botanical gardens and flower shopping at Chelsea Market.

FAO Schwarz is taking advantage of Earth Day to showcase Peat the Penguin, an emeraldtinted plush toy that, as part of the Greenzys line, is made of soy fibers and teaches green lessons to children. The penguin, Greenzys promotional material notes, “is an ardent supporter of recycling, reusing and reducing waste.”

To many pioneers of the environmental movement, eco-consumerism, creeping for decades, is intensely frustrating and detracts from Earth Day’s original

purpose.

“This ridiculous perverted marketing has cheapened the concept of what is really green,” said Denis Hayes, who was national coordinator of the first Earth Day and is returning to organize this year’s activities in Washington. “It is tragic.”

In 1970, New York City Mayor John V. Lindsay addressed a crowd of tens of thousands in Union Square on Earth Day, in an atmosphere The New York Times likened to a “secular revival meeting.”

This year, Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg will be in Times Square to announce measures to reduce New York’s impact on the environment. Using the same stage, Keep America Beautiful, an anti-littering nonprofit organization, will introduce “dream machines,” recycling kiosks they are rolling out with PepsiCo. The machines are meant to increase the recycling rates for beverage containers, which currently is estimated at about 36 percent nationwide.

The irony, of course, is that a fair portion of the more than 200 billion beverage containers produced in the United States each year are filled with PepsiCo products like Mountain Dew and Aquafina; such bottle trash contributes to serious pollution on beaches, oceans and inland waterways.

opponents of genetically modified foods, who say the latest technology may taint conventional corn supplies and allow large companies to perpetuate an industrial agricultural system that harms water resources.

“Their approach is that the market system of expansion we have is just fine and we can use technology to adapt to any problems and make money at the same time,” Maude Barlow, chairwoman of Food and Water Watch, said in e-mailed responses to questions. “We are also very concerned about the possibility of this genetically engineered corn contaminating the stock.”

The technology will expand the U.S. corn-growing region westward while helping the country’s farmers cut their irrigation bill, said Kevin Dhuyvetter, an agricultural economist at Kansas State University. The trait may reduce farmers’ insurance premiums and ultimately boost land values in water-starved regions of Nebraska, Kansas and Oklahoma, he said.

“If we can apply 2 inches less water, that would be a huge benefit because the groundwater supplies are always diminishing,” Dhuyvetter said.

“All players expect blockbuster potential,” said Patrick Rafaisz, an analyst at Bank Vontobel AG. The global market for drought-tolerant corn may reach 150 million acres, DuPont said in a February presentation, without providing a timeframe.

That implies a market of $2.7 billion, based on BASF’s $18per-acre projection. In comparison, global sales of all seeds in 2008 were $26 billion, including $9 billion of corn, Edinburghbased industry consultant Phillips McDougall said in a December report.

Agriculture accounts for 70 percent of global fresh-water use, Monsanto Chief Executive Officer Hugh Grant said. Reducing irrigation not only contributes to more sustainable farming, it’s a “game changer” that will boost profits and help feed a rising world population, he said.

“The biggest single issue in farming going forward is water, use of water, water availability in many parts of the world, so I think it will be a significant product,” Grant said.

Monsanto also is engineering crop seeds including cotton, wheat and sugar cane for drought tolerance, and the company and BASF are donating drought-resistant corn technologies to farmers in sub-Saharan Africa through the African Agricultural Technology Foundation in Nairobi.

Less than a hundredth of 1 percent of all U.S. currency is counterfeit, but the $100 note is the most widely circulated and most frequently counterfeited outside the U.S., the Treasury said.

The Treasury will start issuing the bills Feb. 10, 2011. The older bills will still work and will eventually be cycled out of the market, Bernanke said.

The new bills will also feature the signature of U.S. Treasurer Rosie Rios, who was recently profiled by the Federal Eye.

Continued from B1 Perhaps most importantly for farmers, corn yields may climb. DuPont says seed being tested on 5,000 acres this year is expected to boost yields in dry environments by at least 6 percent. Syngenta is targeting yield increases of at least 10 percent for its corn. Both companies used conventional breeding to develop the seeds for sale next year, with biotech versions due later in the decade.

The seeds will be a “big market” for Syngenta of Switzerland, Chief Executive Officer Michael Mack said. “Farmers around the world are going to pay hundreds of millions of dollars to technology providers in order to have this feature.”

Monsanto is moving directly to a biotech version that it says will increase corn yields 6 percent to 10 percent. The company’s seed, developed with BASF SE, may be put on sale in 2012 and become the first product genetically engineered to tolerate drought.

The Monsanto-BASF partnership, created in 2007, aims to have its drought genetics in 55 million acres of U.S. corn by 2020. In comparison, Monsanto had at least one biotech trait in 82 percent of the nation’s 86.5 million acres of corn last year.

Monsanto and BASF are also developing drought-resistant versions that can serve as insurance for growers who normally have adequate rainfall or access to irrigation. The seeds may generate annual sales of almost $1 billion assuming the

Trading the markets Avoid these common mistakes when converting to a Roth IRA for diamonds, gold

By Robert Powell

basis amounts are involved.”

More taxing issues

It’s not all-or-nothing

IRA owners seem to be focusing entirely on one slice of the tax pie with Roth IRA conversions, instead of the entire tax pie. That’s a mistake, said Robert Keebler, a certified public accountant, partner at Baker Tilly Virchow Krause LLP, and author of ‘The Rebirth of Roth: A CPA’s Ultimate Guide for Client Care.”

IRA owners need to examine what he calls the incremental effective income tax rate issue.

“Perhaps the most misunderstood factor impacting the decision of whether or not to convert is the appropriate income tax rates to use for the conversion year versus the future tax years,” Keebler wrote in a white paper.

“While choosing an appropriate income tax rate for future tax years is more of an art than a science, choosing an appropriate income tax rate for the Roth IRA conversion in the conversion year is much more analytical.

When analyzing a Roth IRA conversion, one cannot simply use a ‘marginal’ income tax rate to determine the income tax liability.

“This oftentimes results in a higher tax liability on the conversion than what would otherwise actually be incurred. Other than for taxpayers already in the highest marginal income tax bracket (i.e. 35 percent in 2010), most conversions will ‘slide’ through various tax brackets. Thus, one must look at the ‘incremental effective’ income tax liability caused by the conversion.”

Fearing the volatility of stocks, some see tangible goods as better investments

BOSTON — While most of the four in 10 U.S. households who own an IRA don’t plan to convert those accounts to Roth IRAs this year, tens of thousands, perhaps even hundreds of thousands, are deciding to take the conversion step — and many are making some astonishing mistakes that experts say could be avoided easily.

What are those mistakes and what can you do to avoid them?

By Julie Wernau Chicago Tribune

CHICAGO — At House of Kahn Estate Jewelers in Chicago, Kathleen Markiewicz fingered a ruby-encrusted broach, shaped like a fish and pinned to the lapel of her shirt. She had paid $4,000 for the piece.

“I felt aquatic today,” she said, taking a sip of sparkling wine.

For Markiewicz, such purchases have become almost a monthly affair, part of efforts to move her investments away from the rise and fall of the markets and onto her fingers, neck and ears.

“I’m protecting my money,” she said.

While the Dow Jones industrial average rose above 11,000 last week for the first time since September 2008 and economists predict continued economic growth, Markiewicz is part of a growing group who have lost faith in traditional means of investing. Instead, they are putting their money into products and commodities they can see, touch, feel and even wear. Financial experts say the trend is similar to one seen in the 1970s, when poor returns in traditional markets sparked investing in tangibles.

During the last decade stocks that make up the S&P 500 have had an annualized return of negative one percent, said Brian Bruce, professor and director of the EnCap Investments & LCM Group Alternative Asset Management Center at Southern Methodist University’s Cox School of Business in Dallas.

In such an environment, people start looking for alternatives, particularly those they can understand.

“Anytime any particular market falls, people abandon it, which is of course always the wrong time to do it. ... But what an excuse to buy jewelry,” Bruce said.

In some ways, Bruce said, precious stones — which do not have tradable markets attached to them — fall into the same category as collecting coins, comic books and art. “There’s no market for them so to speak.”

In London, Adrian Ash, head of research at BullionVault — an online platform for gold bullion trading and ownership — said more people are choosing to invest in physical gold. “It’s much simpler to understand a lump of gold or a stone or even real estate.”

In the five years since BullionVault has launched, 17,000 clients worldwide have invested in 19 tons of gold stored in huge, underground concrete bunkers, mostly in Zurich, but also in New York and London. The uptick in

Paying tax unnecessarily

Tobina Kahn, vice president at House of Kahn jewelers in Chicago, says clients invest tens of thousands of dollars — and sometimes millions — in jewelry containing diamonds and precious stones. gold prices has nudged the value of the bullion to $705 million “We have people who send us $100 a month and use us like a savings account, converting their cash into gold,” Ash said.

Still, some experts say investing in tangible assets is more panic than smarts.

Ed Grebeck, CEO of Tempus Advisers and an adjunct lecturer at New York University, said that while investing in precious jewelry and art may not be the worst investment, it can be risky as it relies on what is in fashion and comes with high commissions from auction houses and dealers on the resale market.

“Who owned it in the past?

Was it somebody famous? Can you prove it? Does that really have value? Maybe today it does, many in a couple of years it won’t,” he said.

Diamonds in particular have hundreds of permutations and combinations, Grebeck said, and investing in diamonds requires having a lot of faith and trust in your diamond dealer. Because it is virtually impossible to standardize something like art or a diamond, these products are not sold and traded in the same way, he said.

“An ounce of gold is an ounce of gold. Whereas with diamonds, so much depends upon the way it’s cut,” he said.

Tobina Kahn, vice president at

House of Kahn Estate Jewelers, said clients invest tens of thousands of dollars— and sometimes millions — in jewelry containing diamonds and precious stones. Many of the pieces that come to the Chicago store are purchased from residents who sell their estate jewelry at House of Kahn’s headquarters in Palm Beach, Fla., she said.

“They don’t make these bracelets anymore,” she said, plucking a unique piece from her display case. “They become more and more and more rare.”

Investors like Markiewicz like that they can enjoy their investments. She says Kahn doesn’t have the same commission markups she would be charged at an auction house. Rather than calling her broker to make an investment, she likes going to her shop and being greeted by Kahn, who already has several pieces picked out for her purusal and a bottle of sparkling wine ready to be poured. Markiewicz has a particular affinity for creatureshaped jewels, and in her will, she plans to leave her collection to the local arts organizations she has supported throughout her lifetime, she said.

“What am I going to do? Sit around with a bunch of guys at the bar and watch the stock market?” she said. “No. I’m going to wear my jewelry to the Art Institute or the opera.”

As economy heals, many of us are reverting to our old habits

By Dan Serra McClatchy-Tribune News Service

With recent economic trends of higher consumer spending and healthier stock markets, many Americans are pointing to evidence we are out of the recession.

Looking back, the recession did change some people’s financial habits, but the resurgence in the economy unfortunately means most people are returning to their old ways of saving and spending, which aren’t always wise.

With the stock market higher, more people are returning to investing. That’s good news to the market but not to personal returns. Many people rejected investments during the recession, which created the best investment opportunity in many of our lifetimes. Investing now that the market is higher only means the returns will be smaller as there is less room to grow.

The same thing with spending

is resulting. We may be spending more, however prices are not as low as they once were in many cases. Stores have stopped discounting heavily because shoppers are returning.

Still, the recession has changed some of our habits. Many of us are now valuing frugality as a permanent part of life versus just resorting to it at times. Like in the 1930s, Americans became scared after all the suffering and were permanently changed to keep as much as they can for fear they will lose it again.

The ones who remain frugal are the minority, according to market research firm Decitica. It found 20 percent of Americans remain frugal after a recession. Meanwhile, 30 percent return to their previous spending levels. The other half don’t change at all, either because they can’t (they don’t have enough money) or they don’t need to (they have too much money).

This research indicates that most Americans don’t change much after a recession and are likely to end up where they once were. In other words, many of us don’t plan for recessions; we just ride along with them.

Putting together a recession plan is a neglected strategy in financial planning. Budgeting and coming up with a plan of action when money is tight is a valuable practice to get in the habit of doing. This would include building and maintaining an emergency fund to cover expenses during a financial disaster such as a job loss. Another wise move would be to have saved money for purchases when the stock market and prices go down. A good financial planner will present these different scenarios to help draw up a disaster plan.

With what many Americans have just gone through, knowing what to plan for is a lot easier.

More than a few investors have made after-tax (nondeductible) contributions to their IRAs or qualified employer plans over the years. With deductible contributions, you avoid paying taxes on the contribution amount until distribution at a later date. With after-tax contributions you include the contribution amount as part of your taxable income in the year contributed, but then get to withdraw the contribution amount (basis) taxfree at a later date.

When taxpayers who have made after-tax contributions decide to convert savings from a regular IRA or employer-sponsored plan to a Roth IRA, the investor is generally able to avoid taxes on the part of the conversion that represents after-tax basis. But that’s not what IRA owners and their advisers are doing, according to Ben Norquist, president and CEO of Convergent Retirement Plan Solutions.

“We continue to see individuals with after-tax basis and their advisers who fail to take advantage of the various strategies available for doing a Roth IRA conversion at the lowest cost,” Norquist said. “By not being aware of the options available to them, many individuals continue to incur a larger-than-necessary tax hit when doing conversions where after-tax

Another mistake: IRA owners look at Roth IRA conversions as an all-or-nothing proposition.

“While 100 percent conversion may make sense for a small minority of individuals, we continue to believe that the majority of investors would be best served by considering a partial conversion as a means of diversifying their overall tax risk,” Norquist said.

In fact, he said, two things need to occur within the financial services industry for the Roth alternative to be used in a rational manner: 1) The industry needs to get a better handle on the real math behind the conversion decision and quit reinforcing overly simplistic rules of thumb such as, “You should only convert if you anticipate being in a higher tax bracket in retirement.” And (2) the industry needs to get away from thinking of the Roth conversion option as an all-or-nothing decision and begin focusing on partial Roth IRA conversions as a legitimate tax-hedging strategy.

Confused custodians Many custodians are reluctant to do conversions of employer plan assets, said Beverly DeVeny, an IRA technical consultant at Ed Slott and Co. “They want the assets in an IRA first and then will do a Roth conversion,” she said.

For the record, plan participants can do a Roth conversion from their employer’s plan.

The other problem that’s occurring out in the real world with custodians, according to DeVeny, has to do with the conversion of after-tax amounts.

“The IRS has yet to release any meaningful clarification on this topic and many plan administrators have not changed the advice that they have been giving plan participants for the last three or four years,” she said.

Trademark Continued from B1 “I decided that the best option for us would be to modify our name slightly,” Chu said in a written statement.

“In the end, I realized that the legal costs to try to defend the 5 Spice name would be better spent on the restaurant and giving more back to the community during these tough economic times.”

Tim Mattera, the general manager of Five Spice Seafood + Wine Bar, said his restaurant asked Chu to change her restaurant name because “their name is pretty much the same as ours.”

He said multiple customers of the Lake Oswego restaurant thought it had opened a Bend location, referring to Chu’s establishment.

He said deliveries of products such as wine were made to Bend instead of Lake Oswego. And, despite the distance between the cities, he said some people who live in Lake Oswego, who may be customers of his restaurant, also have homes in Bend.

“It had nothing to do with the owners,” Mattera said, referring to Chu. “You know the way the economy is, you’re definitely not trying to make people spend money. They should have done their homework. That’s all. If they would have done their homework, I can’t see how they would have named it that same name.”

Trademark disputes Mike Heilbronner, a Portland attorney whose business, IdeaLegal, focuses on intellectual property issues, said proving that customers will be confused is a large portion of trademark law.

A sizable distance between two businesses can make it diffi-

cult to prove there will be confusion; however, he said each situation is different and depends on the specific circumstances of the case.

“There’s no formula to say one way or the other,” Heilbronner said.

Other business owners in Bend have dealt with similar trademark issues during the last few years. Most recently, a Bend startup brewing company, Brewtal Brewing, changed its name to Boneyard Beer Co. Co-owner Tony Lawrence said he was asked by Jack Joyce, a co-founder of Rogue Ales, a Newport-based beer brewer, to change the name from Brewtal Brewing Co. to avoid confusion with Rogue’s Brutal Bitter beer.

Portland-based McMenamins Inc. said in 2005 it would take On the Rocks Pub & Grill Inc. — which owned The O’Kane Grill, formerly located in the current Summit Saloon & Stage space — to court because McMenamins alleged it owns the Oregon registered trademark of O’Kane’s, according to a previous article in The Bulletin. On the Rocks changed the business name from O’Kane Grill to The Bend City Grill.

And another local brewing company, once known as Wildfire Brewing Co., is now 10 Barrel Brewing Co. In each situation, the owners changed their business names to avoid possibly spending thousands of dollars to maintain their brand.

Garrett Wales, a partner at 10 Barrel, said the company that asked him and his partners to change their business name made it clear it would defend its naming rights.

“It pretty much left us no choice,” Wales said. “We sent them a notice saying we were going to change our name.”

The same thought went through Lawrence’s head, he said. It would cost too much to try to keep the Brewtal Brewing name.

“I’m using every resource to get this place to open its doors and be a brewery,” he said. “I just caved.”

That’s one of two common results of a trademark dispute, said Heilbronner, the trademark attorney. In many cases, one side will look at cost of attorneys or legal fees, and will realize it can’t afford to fight the dispute, Heilbronner said.

Another result is that an agreement will be made, because both sides have the potential to lose something if a case goes to trial, he said. “(Both sides) want to mitigate that risk by negotiating a resolution,” Heilbronner said.

Pearson said the demand for laser hair removal, a largely cosmetic procedure, fell off dramatically at the Bend clinic in mid2008 and never recovered.

“We are pretty devastated,” Pearson said. “I hate to close centers, because you have loyal clients, but when you can’t do sales and can’t pay the bills, it’s hard to stay open.”

Pearson said former custom-

ers can transfer their accounts to the American Laser Center he owns in Eugene. He said he realizes a four-hour round-trip drive to Eugene likely is not convenient for many, so he is negotiating with another laser care clinic in Bend to take his clinic’s former customers.

Pearson said his clinic essentially lost money for more than a year. He said he found a buyer

Chu is now in the same position, and expects to spend thousands of dollars on rebranding in addition to the nearly $5,000 she has spent so far. Before renaming the restaurant 5 Fusion & Sushi Bar, she said she searched the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office Web site, as well as state Web sites, for any names that might be a potential conflict, but found nothing that seemed troubling.

She and her restaurant partners chose not to have their attorney, or any other professional, perform the search to save money.

“If they’re not open in Bend, it should be OK,” Chu said about the potential of a problem with the new name. “Otherwise, we’ll try to compromise.”

Searching federal, state and Web databases is likely not enough, Heilbronner said. Attorneys and third-party vendors are the best, though more costly, option, he said, because they understand the “various wrinkles” of the research.

Mick Fleming, a Seattle-based attorney, said many companies, particularly larger companies, actively will try to protect a trademark against another company because it could set a precedent on the company’s protection of the trademark.

“If they don’t do something to protect their trademark, then their trademark can be open to the public,” Fleming said.

Mattera, the general manager of Five Spice Seafood & Wine Bar in Lake Oswego, said the business does not have federal or state trademarks on the name.

It has, however, been operating with some form of the name Five Spice for more than eight years, he said.

Costly process At 10 Barrel, Wales found the best way to mitigate any risk was by picking a name that won’t open the business up to a complaint. He paid an attorney for an extensive name search when he and his partners were considering 10 Barrel.

It cost about $7,000.

“We decided we didn’t want to go through that again,” Wales said, adding that the search came up with two companies nationally that could spark potential issues. “We actually contacted the owners and got confirmation that they had no conflict.”

Also costly, was having to rebrand materials with the Wildfire logo to 10 Barrel. That cost thousands of dollars, Wales said.

In the end, legal and product costs totaled in the tens of thousands of dollars, he said.

“Take your time and perform your due diligence,” Wales said he recommends to new business

Reform Continued from B1 The agriculture committee, which deals with derivatives because it oversees commodities futures trading, voted 13-8 to approve the bill, which was sponsored by Sen. Blanche Lincoln, D-Ark., the panel’s chairwoman.

The bill is expected to be part of the wider regulatory overhaul.

In a statement later, Grassley said that his vote did not mean he would support the larger financial bill, which he said “has a number of flaws that need to be resolved.”

But Democrats seized on his defection as a sign that Republicans were finding it increasingly untenable to oppose the legislation. Democrats said they would to push for a first procedural vote on Monday, in what could be a serious test of Republican resolve.

Senior Democrats said they viewed the vote as a no-lose proposition forcing Republicans to agree to begin debating the bill or be seen as obstructing it.

The Democrats’ efforts have been bolstered this week by a series of developments in Washington and on Wall Street, as regulators announced a fraud case against Goldman Sachs, and then both Goldman Sachs and Citigroup reported huge profits.

“Wall Street’s unquenchable thirst for profits and utter disregard for ordinary consumers led to a pattern of greed and recklessness that darn near led to a complete collapse of our financial economy,” Sen. Christopher J. Dodd, D-Conn. and lead sponsor of the legislation, said

in a floor speech on Wednesday.

“Millions of Americans lost their jobs.”

Republicans initially had expressed stiff opposition to the financial regulation bill, saying it would encourage, rather than prevent, future taxpayer bailouts of financial firms. But that argument has crumbled in recent days, as Republicans insisted that they, too, want to clamp down on Wall Street.

Grassley is up for re-election this year and has long championed greater transparency as a good-governance tool. He did not explain his vote during committee proceedings although he noted his support for a section of the bill that would help protect whistle-blowers who expose fraud in the derivatives markets.

Grassley, who negotiated with Democrats for months over major health care legislation but ultimately refused to back the bill, is a farmer and represents a farm state with a strong populist sensibility. Speculative trading in derivatives is seen as especially harmful to businesses that truly rely on hedging against price swings in commodities.

As talks continued between Dodd and Sen. Richard C. Shelby of Alabama, the senior Republican on the banking committee, some Democrats said they were prepared to accede to Republican demands and drop from the bill a provision to create a $50 billion fund, paid for by big banks, which would be used to unwind failing financial institutions.

The Obama administration has also opposed the fund, which it fears could limit its ability to deal with bank failures.

City officials pitching makeover for reroute

By Patrick Cliff The Bulletin

Redmond will spend $50,000 to design a landscaping face-lift for the Redmond reroute, but the entire project could eventually cost several hundred thousand dollars.

The reroute opened in 2008 and was meant to detour heavy truck traffic around downtown. But it also lifted tour-

Now, some city leaders think the roadway is so unattractive that it keeps people from even considering a visit to Redmond.

Custodial position cuts saving $150,000

Twelve St. Charles Bend employees lost their jobs, officials announced Wednesday, as the number of patients continues to drop at the hospital.

St. Charles Health System, formerly Cascade Healthcare, the parent company that oversees hospitals in Bend, Redmond and Prineville, saw a 1.5 percent drop in patients

“The challenge we’re (facing) is from volume reduction and the number of people who don’t have the resources to pay for their care.”

— Jay Henry, CEO St. Charles Bend

in the first two months of the year compared with 2009.

So far this year, about 20 people have lost their jobs and other unfilled positions have

The forest from the trees

been eliminated. Staff has also seen a reduction in hours.

Janette Sherman, spokeswoman for St. Charles Health System, said the positions cut this week were ones that do not come into direct contact with patient care.

The 12 people who were given 60 days notice clean the offices and dining room and provide other janitorial services to the hospital.

The cut will save about $150,000. The hospital also is leaving four vacant positions unfilled.

“We’re focusing on efforts that (won’t) impact the clinical quality of care and protecting that and patient satisfaction,” said Jay Henry, CEO of St. Charles Bend.

A contingent of Bend officials will head to the coast this week to continue a push for approval to expand the city’s urban growth boundary.

Staffers are scheduled to appear before the Land Conservation and Development Commission in Lincoln City this afternoon to wrap up their case for expansion.

The proposal to expand Bend’s UGB by nearly 9,000 acres has landed before the commission on appeal, after a January ruling by the Department of Land Conservation and Development that the city failed to adequately plan for growth. The DLCD issued a follow-up report in February citing the size and location of the proposed UGB expansion, the city’s housing plan and a failure to adequately provide for infrastructure and public facilities as areas of concern.

State land use planning rules require cities with a population greater than 25,000 to provide for a 20year need for housing, employment lands, infrastructure and public utilities, and demonstrate a need for additional land before urban growth boundaries can be expanded.

The city spent about five years and $4 million preparing a 15,000-page record to back it’s proposal but state land-use planners have said that record does not comply with planning rules.

During a hearing last month, city planners, engineers and public officials defended the city’s work and explained their analyses of the city’s land needs.

“Overall, we’ve seen some agreement with the city’s position on a number of key issues,” said Bend Long Range Planning Manager Brian Shetterly at a meeting of the Bend City Council on Wednesday night.

He said the commission agreed that the city has made a fundamental case for expansion and the use of lands for special purposes like a university in areas where such a use might not otherwise be allowed.

Shetterly said he expects the city will need to do more work in some areas and that the UGB expansion will probably end up being smaller than initially proposed.

Bend officials were not able to address DLCD concerns surrounding transportation, infrastructure and public facilities at last month’s hearings, said Bend City Manager Eric King in an interview before Wednesday night’s meeting.

The DLCD has instructed the city to provide it with detailed transportation and public facilities plans but the city has argued land use rules do not require such a high level of specificity.

The city is also taking the position that the DLCD does not have the authority to require extensive and detailed transportation plans. The commission will have 90 days to make a decision on the city’s appeal.

Wilderness land swap bill receives positive reviews Interior recommends minor changes for Cathedral Rock and Horse Haven proposal

By Keith Chu The Bulletin

WASHINGTON — Two proposed Central Oregon wilderness areas got a good review from President Barack Obama’s administration on Wednesday in a hearing before the U.S. Senate Energy and Natural Resources Subcommittee on Public Lands.

A hearing on the bill by Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., to create the Cathedral Rock and Horse Heaven wilderness areas had been scheduled a month ago, but was held up by a partisan food fight over legislative tactics.

On Wednesday, a U.S. Interior Department official recommended a few minor

changes to the bill, but said the new wilderness areas would consolidate a checkerboard of public and private lands in northeast Jefferson and southern Wasco counties. And Wyden said he’s working to expand his bill to increase the size of the proposed wilderness areas.

“Should the land exchanges be completed, the additional land would greatly enhance the wilderness quality and manageability of the two areas proposed for wilderness,” said Glenda Owens, deputy director of the Interior Department Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement.

The wilderness bill calls for the U.S. Bureau of Land Management to swap several fragmented parcels with two private landowners and the Young Life Christian ministry, which runs the Washington Family Ranch. That camp is located on the site of the former Big Muddy Ranch, which was operated by the Indian guru Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh from 1981 to 1985 as

Rancho Rajneesh.

The BLM would trade about 14,124 acres of federal land for 10,182 acres of private land. The land values would have to be appraised as equal for the swap to go forward.

Additional acreage On Wednesday, Wyden said a few changes to the bill could allow for an additional 2,381 acres of wilderness to be created. BLM Assistant Director Ed Roberson said his agency is examining the proposed changes.

“The amendments you’ve supplied to us, we’d be happy to work with you on that,” Roberson said.

The changes would expand the Horse Heaven wilderness area, in exchange for swapping some BLM and Forest Service lands at the nearby Antoine Ranch.

Wyden plugged the bill’s widespread

support in Central Oregon, which includes hunting groups and a long list of conservation interests, including the Oregon Natural Desert Association.

“We put the proposal together the Oregon way, lots of folks at the local level developing the proposal from the ground up,” Wyden said.

The BLM identified a handful of issues that could require small changes to the bill.

Perhaps most significantly, it cautioned that neither new wilderness area would be viable if the land exchanges fall through.

In its written testimony, the agency recommended that the bill create “potential wilderness,” which would become wilderness areas once the land exchanges are complete.

It also asked for more time to evaluate the proposed wilderness area for environmental and other factors, beyond the two years provided in Wyden’s bill.

Wash. drug smuggler suspected of bestiality

Military supports wind power despite radar interference

PREMATURE BALDNESS

The Associated Press PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. — A U.S. general is trying to reassure the public the military supports wind power and other alternative energy, despite his concerns that turbines may block radar that detects threats.

Air Force Gen. Gene Renuart, head of U.S. Northern Command and the North American Aerospace Defense Command, wrote on his official blog this week that both commands are committed to homeland defense and clean energy.

Construction of a 338-turbine wind farm in Oregon has been put on hold while experts study whether it will interfere with a nearby radar station.

The Federal Aviation Administration, with Air Force backing, issued a notice in March that effectively bars construction. The Defense Department asked the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s Lincoln Laboratory to investigate.

Renuart wrote that the military routinely works with the FAA to determine whether wind turbines, hotels or other

By Gene Johnson The Associated Press

SEATTLE — Last week’s animal-abuse arrest of a convicted cocaine smuggler wasn’t the first time authorities had found something linking him to bestiality.

A Monroe police commander said Monday that when Douglas Spink’s sport utility vehicle was pulled over in 2005, Spink was strangely protective of a female German shepherd that was with him, and he had stickers on the car indicating he was an animal-man-love activist.

Cmdr. Steve Clopp said investigators didn’t bother with those clues because they had much more pressing concerns, namely the 372 pounds of cocaine in the SUV. “It struck us all as very odd,” Clopp said. “We really hadn’t ever dealt with it before. I mean, you’re driving around with 169 kilos of cocaine, you might be concerned with yourself or the predicament you’re in. But he was just really concerned with the dog.”

Spink, once a wealthy entrepreneur in Oregon, received a three-year sentence in the smuggling case because he cooperated and helped bring down local kingpin Robert Kesling.

After doing his time, Spink moved to Whatcom County, near the Canadian border. He was arrested last week on charges of violating the terms of his supervised release from prison by engaging in animal cruelty and withholding information from probation officers.

His lawyer insists there’s no evidence Spink engaged in bestiality.

According to documents filed in Whatcom County Superior Court on Monday as part of the case against the tourist, Spink was running a bestiality-themed Web site.

O Report: Change needed in abuse investigations

By Bill Graves The Oregonian

PORTLAND — State workers investigating abuse reports should visit isolated children more often and stop considering older kids less vulnerable, as some workers continue to do, reports a state investigation team.

Those recommendations stem from the investigation of the Dec. 9 death of 15-year-old Jeanette Maples in her Eugene home after child welfare workers failed to respond to repeated reports of her abuse over a four-year period.

Maples’ stepgrandmother, a concerned parent and educators all called the state Department of Human Services because the girl was bruised, constantly hungry and said she’d been beaten at home. State workers responded to one call in 2006, concluded the girl was not abused, and did not investigate four subsequent reports through 2009. Her mother and stepfather, Angela and Richard McAnulty, have been charged with aggravated murder in her death.

Two lessons for state workers have emerged from the Maples’ case, according to the latest report by the Critical Incident Response Team, launched by the Department of Human Services after her death, said Gene Evans, spokesman for the agency.

She was home-schooled and isolated during her final year, and “we probably should have seen her more times than we did,” he said. Secondly, child welfare screeners should not have made the assumption that Maples was less vulnerable be-

State workers screened 6 7,8 8 5 reports of abuse and neglect in 2 0 0 9 and investigated 2 8 ,584 of them. Of those, workers found 11,090 children who were victims of abuse or neglect, nearly half of them under 6 years old. cause she was older.

The critical response team recommends that if state child welfare workers determine a child they are investigating appears isolated from public school, sports groups, church, medical workers or other outside connections, their investigation “should include multiple visits over a 30day period.”

The state is developing guidelines to help child welfare workers determine when to make multiple visits and how many visits they should make, said Lois Day, administrator for the Office of Safety and Permanency for Children and member of the team.

An audit by the team also found that both workers who screen calls and those who investigate reports across the state, not just in Lane County, inappropriately concluded children were less vulnerable because of their age.

Screeners should not even be trying to determine a child’s vulnerability, which requires “a face-to-face evaluation,” the re-

port said. Investigators assessing children’s vulnerability to abuse should look at their developmental stage, degree of isolation and other factors, Day said.

“Age is a factor,” she said, “but it can never be considered alone.”

The report said the state should assemble a workgroup of child advocates, attorneys and other experts to recommend guidelines for handling reports involving older kids.

It also said the state is developing a plan to help child welfare supervisors push harder to carry out the 3-year-old Oregon Safety Model.

The model recommends conducting abuse investigations that go beyond individual incidents to interviewing medical providers, friends and other people connected with a child’s family. The model also says workers should first ensure a child is safe before they complete their abuse investigations.

State workers screened 67,885 reports of abuse and neglect in 2009 and investigated 28,584 of them. Of those, workers found 11,090 children who were victims of abuse or neglect, nearly half of them under 6 years old. Mothers and fathers accounted for 74 percent of all perpetrators.

The Lane County Circuit Court last month denied The Oregonian’s request for the search warrant affidavit in the Maples case, saying the grand jury was still investigating the 15-year-old girl’s death. On Tuesday, the Lane County district attorney’s office confirmed that the grand jury investigation remains open.

O B AG counsel resigns over water sample GRANTS PASS — The resignation of the head of the Oregon attorney general’s environmental crimes unit apparently stems from the way a water sample was collected in a pollution case against a Hood River juice manufacturer.

Brent Foster resigned Tuesday.

Attorney General John Kroger would only say that the resignation came after Foster told him he misrepresented his involvement in the investigation of criminal water pollution charges against the owner of Hood River Juice.

Columbia Riverkeeper Brett VandenHeuvel says Foster was with him last October when he picked up a sample of a discharge across the street from the Hood River Juice factory. He adds he picked up the sample at the request of the Hood River County district attorney’s office.

Scouts defend training program PORTLAND — An executive for the Boy Scouts of America says the organization has been working on a training program to prevent child sex abuse since the 1980s but it still is not mandatory for Scout leaders.

James Terry outlined the program Wednesday to a Portland jury that is considering up to $25 million in punitive damages against the Boy Scouts.

Terry is the chief financial

officer for the Scouts at its Texas headquarters and chairs its committee on “youth protection training.”

The Scouts called Terry as a witness after the jury found the organization negligent last week and awarded $1.4 million to an Oregon man abused by a former assistant scoutmaster in the early 1980s.

The punitive damages phase of the trial began this week.

Mom of dead hospital patient plans lawsuit PORTLAND — The mother of a 42-year-old man who died at the Oregon State Hospital has filed notice that she plans to sue.

In a tort claim notice filed with the state, Dora Perez of Woodburn asserts her deceased son, Moises Perez, received inadequate treatment at the Salem mental hospital.

Hospital officials declined comment, citing potential litigation.

Perez was found dead in his hospital bed Oct. 17.

An investigation by the State Office of Investigations and Training found that Perez’s caregivers failed to properly treat his chronic medical conditions, failed

to prepare a meaningful treatment plan for him, failed to update his medical chart and failed to return calls from his family in the last weeks of his life.

Legs match DNA of missing woman MCMINNVILLE — A Texas lab has confirmed that a leg discovered on the banks of the Willamette River belonged to a 58year-old Corvallis woman who was reported as missing and suicidal in May 2007.

Yamhill County Sheriff Jack Crabtree says the leg was found in October 2008 — five months after a different leg was recovered in the river between Salem and Independence.

The remains were sent to the Texas lab along with DNA and blood samples of the missing woman — Gloria Knoll. The lab matched the two legs with Knoll’s DNA. — From wire reports

Why did police wait so long in PRG case?

“O

Way back in September 2009, company owner

Elizabeth Rose told Oregon Real Estate Agency investigators that she’d embezzled $150,000. The agency promptly notified the Bend Police Department, which did little, if anything, for months.

Why not? According to one police department official, no victims came forward. And according to another, the department did nothing because the Real Estate Agency’s investigative reports, which were completed last fall, didn’t hit their desks until April.

Those are the broad outlines of the case, anyway, and they fail the common-sense test. Were authorities really paralyzed for months — even as PRG Property Management continued to do business — simply because victims refused to drop from the clouds and land in the appropriate lap? Was the pursuit of justice really stymied because a state agency failed to send the police a report?

Both are hard to believe.

The police department’s inaction becomes even harder to understand when you consider some of the details contained in reports compiled by the Real Estate Agency.

Shortly after a PRG employee blew the whistle last year, a pair of agency investigators made an unannounced visit to the company’s office. During this visit, according to the interview report, Rose admitting taking money, mostly security deposits, from client accounts and using it to pay her business’ bills. She also asked to include her husband, Gary, in the interview, though he pointed out that he knew nothing about the misdirected money until recently. He also identified himself as a retired deputy with the Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office.

That same day, the agency called the Bend Police Department to report the confession. According to the interview report, police Sgt. Brian Kindel, who took the call, said he knew Gary Rose. Kindel also said he’d talk with the district attorney and get back in touch with the investigator. The agency was still waiting for his call on Oct. 5, roughly three weeks later, when it released an investigative report.

Earlier this month, Real Estate Agency Deputy Commissioner Dean Owens described an even more surprising act of indifference. “We had offered to give (the Bend Police Department) our file,” he told a Bulletin reporter, “and they had declined to take it.”

Bend Police Lt. Ben Gregory attributed the lackluster response to an absence of victims. Until at least one victim came forward, he told a Bulletin reporter, his department couldn’t act.

The department may have reconsidered its wait-and-see approach if

The Bend Police Department responded to an embezzlement confession with a lack of curiosity and a lack of follow up.

And because the gears of justice didn’t start moving when they should have, the business at the center of the mess — the one owned by the confessed embezzler — kept its doors open until April 9. it had thought about the way it would look to outsiders. Only the most naive onlookers could fail to consider the obvious conclusion: The department dragged its heels out of professional courtesy to the wife of a fellow law enforcement professional.

We don’t happen to believe this explanation. After all, there is an equally plausible, if less dramatic, alternative: The department simply dropped the ball. At the time Kindel spoke with the Real Estate Agency’s folks last September, says Police Chief Sandi Baxter, “we did not have all of the information” that was included in the investigative reports produced by the agency weeks later, one dated Sept.

23 and the other Oct. 5. Kindel was under the impression that the agency would send him the material when it was completed, says Baxter. And had that happened, “an investigation probably would have been initiated” well before now.

In other words, the Bend Police Department responded to an embezzlement confession with a lack of curiosity and a lack of follow up. And because the gears of justice didn’t start moving when they should have, the business at the center of the mess — the one owned by the confessed embezzler — kept its doors open until April 9.

Clients who spoke to The Bulletin this week are far from happy about that, and they have a right to be. Said Jackie Evans, who believes she’s lost thousands of dollars in security deposits and rent, “It’s just bizarre. All these people knew about it except for the owners, the victims.”

Given how quickly those victims are coming forward now, is there any doubt they’d have been easy to find last fall?

My Nickel’s Worth Flaherty for DA

What about abusers?

Vote for Alley

I was a bit surprised to read The Bulletin’s endorsement of Mike Dugan for district attorney. I can understand you expressing your opinion, but I must say I believe you have your reasoning all wrong.

In your article you say that Patrick Flaherty is indeed qualified to be a district attorney.

You then go on to say that you believe that Mike Dugan has done a good job if we set aside a couple of things such as the handling of the David Black disaster and that he supported Measures 66 and 67.

Should we look the other way when our elected officials make mistakes?

Should we hold them accountable for their actions and their representation of the public that elected them? We all need to pay attention to what our elected officials are doing and hold them accountable. We should not overlook Dugan’s actions during his time as the district attorney for Deschutes County.

As for qualifications, you talk about the years Mike has had in his office and that he does a very good job as district attorney.

You also state that Patrick is indeed qualified to be district attorney. Do you not believe someone other than Mike Dugan can do a very good job as district attorney?

We need elected officials who reflect the character of the people who elected them. I say give Patrick a shot at it and see what he can do for the people of Central Oregon.

I read with interest Father Arsenius’ views on the St. Charles Health System breakup. Since the severance has been made, why does the Bend diocese not start a campaign now to build a real Catholic-run hospital where all fallopian tubes and any other body parts can remain intact without outside medical “interference?”

It might be interesting for your readers to also learn the good monk’s views on the psychological damage wrought by, for instance, the clerics involved with the care of some 200 young boys at St. John’s School for the Deaf in Milwaukee in the 1950s through the ’70s, wherein the confessional was used to solicit boys.

Those poor young boys, along with others having crossed the path of other abuser priests, are not likely to escape problems with marriage if they ever get to that stage in life, or in their every day lives in one way or another. Every day we find headlines such as appeared in the same issue of The Bulletin as Father Arsenius’ guest column: “Accused of abuse in U.S. priest still works in India.”

With all these disgusting articles, thinking people simply cannot understand the shifting around of these priestly miscreants.

Church members can reiterate over and over “the ethical and religious directives for Catholic health care services” but hopefully I am not the first to remind them that the psychological damage done to the thousands of young boys by abuser priests can now be considered under “health care” in the modern world.

Allen Alley put forth a rather interesting concept during a Bend house party recently. As we gathered in a cozy living room he shared that if given the opportunity to become the Republican gubernatorial candidate, he relishes the thought of traveling this magnificent state of Oregon while debating John Kitzhaber.

Think Lincoln–Douglas debates.

Think excitement and cheering and perhaps learning something substantive for a change and not just empty words that fit into a 30 second sound bite. Hmm … an intellectually honest series of debates from candidates who could actually pull that off.

The way I see it, the May 18 primary is my only opportunity to make a substantive (there’s that word again) choice.

How about hearing both sides of vital issues fully aired for a change? Our beloved state of Oregon has many problems. Just ask the current governor who recently cited many of them but forgot he was at the helm for eight years — apparently without the leadership skills needed to actually solve, or better yet, prevent them.

As to candidate personality, well, to me, substance over name recognition is key. Note to the higher ups in the Oregon GOP — some of us down here in the trenches, the ones who make the calls, walk the precincts and write letters to the editor — we need candidates who measure up, who want the positions they seek with their heart and soul. Allen Alley is that candidate. The possibility of education, and during a gubernatorial campaign, what a concept.

Column critic makes good points about deficit, security WASHINGTON — ecently, I wrote a column commending President Obama for his long-range vision and for the patience to wait, beyond his own term if necessary, for the rewards to appear.

The column really irritated a reader in Maryland, who unloaded on Washington Post ombudsman Andy Alexander, who sent the complaint on to me.

“Andy,” the reader wrote, “one way for us to gain more insights into the minds of Post news section reporters is to read the columns of former news section reporters. I found today’s column by David Broder to be very revealing. Broder is excited about how patient our president is, and how this will be good for the future.

“A more skeptical mind might see how this ‘patience’ is emboldening Iran to build a highly destabilizing nuclear threat that will be bad for the future of our country and bad for our world. A more skeptical mind might see how pil-

R

ing debt on debt on debt by the federal government is not a victory for patience, but rather will lead to a massive burden for the next generation and declines in our standard of living. But at least the USA will be less exceptional compared to the rest of the world.

“Patience is not going to lead to better health care for our people. Rather, a virtually inevitable doctor shortage and various other problems created by government controls will bring our system down to a much lower quality and long waits for mediocre care. But at least more people will have health care insurance.

“If these are goals to be applauded,” he concluded, “then I understand where Broder and his fellow travelers are coming from.”

Aside from the “fellow travelers” phrase in the last paragraph, which struck me as a cheap shot redolent of 1950s-style anti-communism, I really admired the letter and thought the

DAVID BRODE R writer was making valid and important points.

I do not agree with him that health care reform will inevitably have the bad effects he suggests, but I think it’s fortunate that before it becomes operational in 2014, two Congresses will have time to strengthen its cost-cutting provisions.

We are far more in agreement about the threat of debt than my critic wants to acknowledge. I have written so often, to the point that some readers probably resent it, about our calamitous deficits and the inevitability of entitlement cuts and revenue increases.

But unlike the Maryland man, I’m

prepared to acknowledge Obama’s argument that it makes no sense to raise taxes overall while the economy is still struggling to recover from the worst recession in more than 60 years.

As for Iran, the letter coincided with the report in The New York Times that Secretary of Defense Robert Gates, a remarkable truth-teller, had sent the president a memo raising an alarm at the absence of a clear U.S. strategy to deal with the mullahs’ drive for nuclear arms.

Gates was reported to have raised directly with Obama the risk that has been much discussed — that foot-dragging by China and Russia will weaken and delay any sanction regime imposed through the United Nations and leave the United States and its allies with a dreadful choice between armed conflict or acceptance of a nuclear-armed Iran.

The administration and Gates himself promptly tried to walk the story back, but it’s clear there was such a memo and

the interpretation of its undisclosed language was not far from the meaning the Times attached.

In truth, I had heard another senior administration official, dining with a small group of reporters two weeks ago, say that in his judgment, within a year to 18 months, after the diplomats have played out their hands at the U.N., we will face a showdown with Iran.

What then of the patience for which I praised Obama? The only answer can be: It has its limits. Patience is not sufficient in itself to solve problems. It can only contribute to making policy a success by fitting it to the right timing.

In neither of these crucial issues do I see an advantage for Obama rushing the action, let alone reversing it, as the Marylander seems to suggest on health care. But patience alone is not enough.

Reroute Continued from C1 Currently, there is no uniform design to landscaping along the side of the road so a driver’s view ranges from residential backyards to a power station.

Designing a common look for the reroute’s length could help Redmond attract some of the traffic the city lost to the reroute, Public Works Director Chris Doty said.

“We need to put our best foot forward to entice people to visit the city as they’re passing through,” Doty said. “Whereas before, they were captive, they were ours. Now, we have to come up with something extra.”

Exactly what that extra is remains an open question, but Eric Sande, the executive director of the Redmond Chamber of Commerce & CVB, said a comprehensive design could only help downtown.

Beautifying the reroute is essentially an economic development move, Sande said.

“It is our front door, and it should be attractive,” he said.

The city will put out a request for proposals in the coming days.

Once Redmond picks a consultant, the design should take about six months to complete and is expected to include several choices for the city. Costs will likely range from about $100,000 to possibly several hundred thousand dollars, according to Doty.

Not only could the cost be high, but the city will eventually have to get several groups — from the Oregon Department of Transportation to private property owners — to buy into the design.

“We’ll just float the balloon and see what happens,” Doty said.

The city will split the initial design cost between the Urban Renewal Agency and the transportation fund, which is funded by the city’s general fund. Tak-

ing $25,000 from each will not affect any urban renewal or road work, according to City Manager David Brandt.

“It’s not a huge amount, and we can absorb that pretty easily,” Brandt said.

But coming up with cash for all of the work will be more difficult. Redmond will likely avoid making staff or service cuts next year, but City Councilor Ed Boero said the city will probably have to tap volunteers for some of the work. If the city cannot pay for the entire project at once, at least the design will guide any landscaping work in the future, Boero said.

“My feeling is we’ll accomplish what we can today, then build partnerships to accomplish the rest,” Boero said. “At least if we have a plan, the city council can start budgeting in future years.”

Juan Antonio Samaranch, president of the International Olympic Committee, addresses the 11th Olympic Congress in Baden-Baden, West Germany, in September 1981. Samaranch, 89, died Wednesday in Barcelona, Spain.

Former Olympic Committee president dies in Barcelona

By Jere Longman New York Times News Service

Juan Antonio Samaranch, a dominant figure in the modern Olympic movement who over 21 years guided the games from a period of boycotts and near bankruptcy to an era of unprecedented success and damaging scandal, died on Wednesday in his home city, Barcelona, Spain.

He was 89.

The cause was heart failure, said a spokesman for the Quiron hospital in Barcelona, where Samaranch had been admitted.

In a statement on Wednesday, Jacques Rogge, who succeeded Samaranch as president of the International Olympic Committee, called him “the man who built up the Olympic Games of the modern era.”

Samaranch, a former Spanish diplomat, led the IOC from 1980 to 2001. Inheriting an organization with only $200,000 in cash reserves, he guided its transformation into a multibillion-dollar enterprise.

His stamp on the games was considerable. Major boycotts by Africans, Americans and Soviets hobbled the Olympics from the mid-1970s through the mid-’80s, and he navigated an end to them.

Under a program called Olympic Solidarity, he brought financial aid to underdeveloped nations and encouraged the whole world to participate in the games, from Jamaican bobsledders to Syrian heptathletes.

He opened one of the most closed old-boy clubs, welcoming women as members of the IOC and elevating the participation of female athletes in the Winter and Summer Games to more than 40 percent.

He also ended the sham of amateurism. Americans had often been paid under the table, and Eastern bloc athletes had essentially been state-sponsored em-

Layoffs Continued from C1 The Bend hospital will rely on an outside company to provide the cleaning services.

Coupled with a drop in patient numbers, Henry said the hospital has also seen an increase in the number of patients who can’t afford to pay for their care.

The number of uninsured patients has climbed in the system from 6.7 percent to 7.9 percent in the first two months of the year, compared to 2009.

“The challenge we’re (facing) is from volume reduction and the number of people who don’t have the resources to pay for their care,” Henry said.

Earlier this month, the hospital laid off the five remaining licensed practical nurses, who

ployees. But under Samaranch, many of the world’s greatest professional athletes, including Michael Jordan and Lance Armstrong, became Olympians, and athletes who were once forced to abandon their Olympic hopes after college were able to continue to compete while building financially successful careers.

Samaranch’s final achievement before stepping down on July 16, 2001, was to bring the 2008 Summer Games to Beijing, thus awarding one of the world’s foremost sporting events to the world’s most populous nation for the first time.

His political skills were evident earlier in the separate participation in the Games of China and Taiwan; in the return of South Africa to the Olympics after apartheid was dismantled; in the participation of the former Soviet republics as the Unified Team in 1992 after the Eastern bloc collapsed; and in the joint march of North Korea and South Korea at the opening ceremonies of the 2000 Summer Games in Sydney, Australia.

require fewer credentials than a registered nurse.

Henry said officials are trying to reduce expenses and avoid layoffs as much as possible, but since the start of the year, some floors are at 50 percent capacity.

In another cost-saving effort, the Bend hospital also closed the fifth floor of the hospital and combined the Ortho/Neuro and Surgical Speciality floors.

The move is in a 30-day trial period to see how it works.

Officials at St. Charles Bend began reviewing revenue in late 2009 when the patient numbers first started dropping.

The Bend hospital initially tried to address overstaffing with “call-offs,” by sending people home when the number of patients dropped.

This review process will now be a continuing part of the sys-

longer tenure than Samaranch’s.

And to John MacAloon, a historian of the Olympics and a professor at the University of Chicago, no Olympics leader, aside from de Coubertin, was more significant.

“It’s rare that a single person manages to transform so thoroughly an international organization as important as the IOC, or an institution as significant as the Olympic Games,” MacAloon said. “His major achievement was to give the IOC a political competence, an ability to deal with states and the United Nations in a way that earned both interest and respect.”

But Samaranch’s tenure was also marred by scandal. Ten Olympic committee members either resigned or were expelled in the late 1990s after receiving more than $1 million in cash, gifts, scholarships and other benefits as part of Salt Lake City’s winning bid for the 2002 Winter Games. Other members were linked to improprieties in the bidding for the Atlanta and Sydney Olympics.

As a former sports official in Spain in the fascist regime of Gen. Francisco Franco, Samaranch had come to tolerate a degree of corruption. He tended to co-opt his enemies and ignore the unsavory reputations of some of the members he brought into the IOC, among them Francis Nyangweso, a former defense chief for the Ugandan dictator Idi Amin.

Samaranch was also faulted over the issue of doping, which the IOC did not begin to take seriously until after the police uncovered a scandal that nearly shut down the 1998 Tour de France. Many Olympic officials said the failure to mount an effective campaign against the use of banned performance-enhancing drugs was Samaranch’s greatest deficiency.

O B Strong winds prompt false tornado reports BURNS — A National Weather Service meteorologist has backed away from his belief that a tornado ripped through southeast Oregon.

Meteorologist Paul Flatt, who is based in Boise, Idaho, said Wednesday he had based his opinion on reports that a roof had been blown off a house.

It turns out the house only lost a lot of shingles, which doesn’t indicate tornado-strength winds.

Aside from removing shingles from several homes, the winds busted more than 50 power poles, blew a mobile home three feet off its foundation and partially

destroyed several outbuildings.

Flatt believes the winds were 70-to-75 mph.

‘Grandpa Bandit’ suspected in Medford bank robbery MEDFORD — The so-called “Grandpa Bandit” may have struck again.

Medford police say a robber left with an undisclosed amount of money Tuesday after handing a note to a bank teller and lifting up his windbreaker to reveal a black revolver.

Lt. Bob Hansen says the middle-aged suspect resembled the man dubbed the Grandpa Bandit by the FBI. — From wire reports

Oft-injured Blazers get good news about Batum

Bend sweeps Crook County in IMC meet

Local teams remain in mix for postseason

PORTLAND — It has been that kind of season for the Portland Trail Blazers: Hope for the best but expect the worst.

On Wednesday, the oftinjured Blazers got some better-thanexpected news about starting forward Nicolas Batum.

Nicolas Batum An MRI showed he strained his right shoulder and was questionable for Game 3 of the first-round playoff series between the Blazers and the Suns.

The resilient Blazers claimed the opening game of the series 105-100 in Phoenix, but fell back in a 119-90 loss on Tuesday night.

Batum injured his shoulder in the second half when he went after a loose ball and appeared to bang his shoulder into Suns guard Steve Nash’s shoulder.

The injury was of particular concern because Batum, the team’s primary perimeter defender, had surgery on the shoulder just before the opener and missed the first 45 games of the season.

“You hope you don’t have another guy in surgery, which is what we thought could happen last night,” coach Nate McMillan said.

The Blazers were already hurting without All-Star guard Brandon Roy, who tore the meniscus in his right knee and had arthroscopic surgery two days before the playoffs got under way.

Roy was expected to be sidelined for one to two weeks. But Roy actually did some shooting at practice Wednesday, and says his knee feels good. So good that he wouldn’t rule out returning if the series with the Suns goes the distance.

Steelers’ Big Ben suspended 6 games The NFL cracked down on one of its stars Wednesday, suspending Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger for not just a few games but the first six of the season, even though he Steelers’ Ben avoided Roethlisberger sexual assault charges in Georgia.

The two-time Super Bowl winner was banned without pay for violating the NFL’s personal conduct policy and was ordered to undergo a “comprehensive behavioral evaluation by professionals.”

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell handed down the punishment a week after prosecutors decided not to charge Roethlisberger in a case involving a 20-year-old college student who accused him of sexually assaulting her in a Milledgeville, Ga., nightclub last month.

Goodell said team offseason activities were off limits to the quarterback until he completes the evaluation and is cleared by the league to rejoin the Steelers.

Most Cascade Mountain lakes open to anglers on Saturday

By Mark Morical

HUNTING & FISHING

The Bulletin

A relatively mild winter could make for some happy Central Oregon anglers this spring.

The trout-fishing opener for most Cascade Mountain lakes in the region is this Saturday, and all signs point toward many ice-free lakes with mostly trouble-free access.

And the fishing is supposed to be pretty good, too.

“We should see fishing improving as the water warms and fish activity increases, maybe a little sooner than most years with more snowpack,”

said Ted Wise, a Bend-based fisheries biologist for the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife.

Roger Olson, operations manager for the Deschutes County Road Department, said this week that most Cascade lakes will be ice-free and accessible. But, he added, Lava Lake, Paulina Lake and East Lake are not expected to be accessible.

Lava Lake, just south of Mount Bachelor, was still frozen as of Wednesday.

“Lava’s not going to quite make it,” said Lava Lake Resort owner Joann Frazee. “If it does, it will be last minute. We’re hoping for the next weekend (May 1).”

East of La Pine in the Newberry National Volcanic Monument, Paulina and East lakes were still covered with ice early this week, according to Olson. The road into the monument will be clear, but the gate will remain closed because both lakes are still at least partially frozen, Olson said.

“It’s fun and it’s important,” Suh said as he watched dozens of youth players scramble around a makeshift artificial turf field.

The real scramble begins at 4:30 p.m. PDT today, and the All-American considered the best defensive tackle coming out of college in more than a decade has no clue where he will land.

“I have no idea what’s going to happen,” he said. “I haven’t had anyone tell me that they want to draft me. There could be a lot of trades. There could be someone a team really wants.”

They pretty much all want Suh. And Bradford. And McCoy. “I hope so,” McCoy said.

“If I walk into the room having no idea, my heart’s going to be going,” 2008 Heisman Trophy winner Bradford admitted.

Bradford is projected to go No. 1 to St. Louis, which released incumbent Marc Bulger and comes off a 1-15 season in which it managed all of 175 points.

Early season offers best shot for catching some big trout

T

here are two times of year when an angler has a better than average chance at catching a big trout — the first two weeks of the season and the last two weeks. I probably don’t need to remind you, but this Saturday marks opening day of trout season on most Oregon lakes.

It has been months since the fish have seen a salmon egg, a spinner or a hook graced with fur and feather. Water temps are rising and bugs are hatching in the shallows.

A lot of anglers like to focus on catching a limit the first outing of the year, but this is a great

time to hunt bigger fish. With techniques tuned to time period and light level, an angler can go armed to catch trout at any time of the day.

The first two hours My friend Steve Brown likes to target 1- to 3-pound browns close to shore, because predatory browns and rainbows chase bait up against the shoreline.

Since trout eat fish up to a third their own length, a 3- or 4-inch minnow imitation is a good bet.

Fly-fishing can produce big trout, even on blue-sky days. This 131⁄2 pound Crane Prairie rainbow tumbled to a gray beadhead Hare’s Ear for angler Doug Sanders.

NHL ROUNDUP

Canucks top Kings, series tied at 2 The Associated Press LOS ANGELES — Henrik Sedin scored the go-ahead goal with 2:52 to play, and the Vancouver Canucks scored four times in a wild third period to even the first-round series with a 6-4 victory over the Los Angeles Kings in Game 4 on Wednesday night.

Mikael Samuelsson, Sami Salo and Ryan Kesler also scored in the final 12:31 for the third-seeded Canucks, who rallied from three one-goal deficits while standing on the brink of a 3-1 series deficit.

After Salo put Vancouver ahead with 7:44 left, Wayne Simmonds answered for Los Angeles 1:02 later. Sedin then got loose on a rush, and the NHL scoring champion put his first goal of the series behind Jonathan Quick, who made 31 saves for the Kings.

Game 5 is Friday night in Vancouver, with Game 6 back at Staples Center on

Sunday.

Roberto Luongo made 22 saves and Daniel Sedin had three assists as the Canucks won despite yielding two more power-play goals to the Kings, who have nine in the series.

Starting with Samuelsson’s fifth goal of the playoffs with just over 12½ minutes left, Vancouver rallied with a relentless offensive effort that had Los Angeles on its heels.

Although Simmonds responded to Salo’s slap shot goal by charging the net to bat a loose puck past Luongo’s extended glove, Sedin had the final answer to Los Angeles’ hopes of getting to the brink of its first playoff series victory since 2001.

Facing tight checking from star defenseman Doughty and the Kings’ No. 2 line led by Michal Handzus, the Sedin twins were scoreless until the third period of Game 4. But they led Vancouver roaring

past the Kings, and Daniel assisted on Henrik’s winning goal before Kesler’s empty-netter with 17 seconds left.

Game 5 is Friday night in Washington.

• Lee to make rehab start Sunday: Cliff Lee’s long-awaited debut in Seattle is tentatively set for April 30.

Seattle manager Don Wakamatsu said Wednesday that Lee will make a minor league rehab start on Sunday at Triple-A Tacoma versus Salt Lake City. If all goes well, the Mariners will start Lee on normal rest Friday, April 30 against Texas. Lee, the former AL Cy Young winner and Seattle’s big offseason acquisition, has been on the disabled list since March 26 with a lower abdominal strain.

• Cubs move ace to bullpen: Cubs manager Lou Piniella has decided to move ace right-hander Carlos Zambrano to the bullpen. Piniella talked to Zambrano about switching to an eighth-inning role before Chicago faced the New York Mets on Wednesday night. He says Zambrano was ready to do whatever was best for the team and the change “makes all the sense in the world.”

Ted Lilly will be inserted into the rotation when he comes off the disabled list, probably this weekend.

• Ducks win again: The 18thranked Oregon baseball team hit four home runs Wednesday in a 19-10 win against Gonzaga in Spokane, Wash.

Oregon (25-12) faced five Gonzaga pitchers, and tied a program singlegame record with 25 hits. Senior Eddie Rodriguez was four for four at the plate with an RBI, a double and two runs scored. KC Serna, Steven Packard, Danny Pulfer and Dylan Gavin all homered for the Ducks.

The game ended in the eighth due to a curfew placed on the game for Oregon’s travel. Oregon hosts USC in a three-game Pac-10 series starting on Friday.

• ASU announces baseball sanctions: Arizona State has announced it is vacating 44 of its 49 victories from the 2007 baseball season and will be reducing scholarships as part of selfimposed sanctions for violating NCAA rules. The NCAA has also begun its own investigation into the violations, which include approximately 500 impermissible telephone calls by the baseball coaching staff from January 2004 to June 2009 and the recruitment of a prospective student-athlete by an impermissible recruiter.

Cycling • Armstrong coming to New Mexico: Lance Armstrong is returning to the Tour of the Gila. The seven-time Tour de France champion competed in the New Mexico event last year and has decided to return for next week’s five-day race, held in the Silver City area. “Not only do the state and the local fans embrace this race, but the terrain, competition, and timing is perfect,” Armstrong said in a statement released by bicycle components manufacturer Sram Corp., the event’s title sponsor. Chris Horner, of Bend, is a member of Armstrong’s Team RadioShack.

• Evans wins Belgian race: Cadel Evans won the Walloon Arrow cycling classic Wednesday in Belgium, beating Spaniards Joaquin Rodriguez and Alberto Contador in an uphill sprint to the finish. At the end of the 123-mile race to Huy, the main contenders were packed together as they started the daunting onemile Wall of Huy climb. Contador first jumped into the lead, but Evans made up the difference over the last 100 meters with a strong finishing kick. The Walloon Arrow is the main prep race for Sunday’s Liege-Bastogne-Liege, one of the major oneday classics of the season. It covers much of the same terrain through the woods and hills of the Ardennes in southern Belgium.

Auto racing • NASCAR penalizes four teams: NASCAR has penalized four teams that fall under the Michael Waltrip Racing banner for violations at Texas Motor Speedway. NASCAR says the cars driven by David Reutimann, Martin Truex Jr., Max Papis and Marcos Ambrose all had illegal cars after qualifying at Texas. Reutimann and Truex’s cars are owned by MWR, while Ambrose and Papis drive for teams that are aligned with MWR. The crew chiefs all faced fines and probation through the end of the year.

• Four women on Indy 500 entry list: The Indianapolis 500 field has been announced and it includes four former champions as well as four women. The Indianapolis Motor Speedway says 40 entries have been filed for the May 30 race. It’s the second consecutive year with that many entries, the most since 2002. Defending champion Helio Castroneves is joined by former winners Scott Dixon, Dario Franchitti and Dan Wheldon.

Four women could start in the Indianapolis 500 for the first time. The entries include Danica Patrick, Milka Duno, Sarah Fisher and Simona De Silvestro.

Olympics • Familiar rain sends Olympians indoors to see Obama: The weather problems at the Vancouver Games followed the U.S. Olympians to the White House. Steady rain forced

the pleasantries indoors when the U.S. team visited President Barack Obama on Wednesday. Instead of hanging out on the South Portico for the customary public words of support from the president, the 225 or so athletes clustered about in several rooms in the executive mansion to hobnob with the first family and Vice President Joe Biden. Three Olympians with local ties — alpine skier Tommy Ford, snowboarder Chris Klug and cross-country skier Torin Koos —were scheduled to be at the White House.

College • Economic woes could mean fewer college teams: Chasing national championships in the costly sports of college football and men’s basketball can mean fewer competitive opportunities for other athletes. Panelists at a University of North Carolina sports research conference met Wednesday to discuss the struggles faced by money-losing athletic departments.

Among them was the athletic director at James Madison, a Virginia school that eliminated 10 sports in 2007. NCAA research shows that just 25 major college sports programs turned a profit in the most recent fiscal year for which data is available.

Public universities in college football’s top tier reported a median value of $3.31 million in direct annual support from their schools. Not all colleges are faced with what the sport research institute called the “ethics of elimination.” In Divisions II and III, where athletes usually don’t receive scholarships, schools have quickly learned that more sports means a bottom-line boost from more tuitionpaying students. A September 2009 AP review found that colleges in the three NCAA divisions planned to add a total of 174 new teams while dropping just 59 over the ensuing two years.

Basketball • Thunder’s Brooks named NBA coach of the year: Oklahoma City Thunder coach Scott Brooks has been named the NBA’s coach of the year after engineering the league’s best turnaround. The Thunder won 27 more games this season than they did a year ago, going 50-32 and earning the No. 8 seed in the Western Conference playoffs with the NBA’s youngest roster.

Tennis • Williams bows out of Fed Cup: Venus Williams will not play for the U.S. in the Fed Cup semifinals against Russia this weekend in Alabama, joining her sister Serena on the sidelines. Williams said Wednesday she is still rehabilitating a troublesome knee injury and isn’t ready to return to competition. The team includes Melanie Oudin, Bethanie Mattek-Sands and Liezel Huber.

Fernandez will choose between Julia Bosserup and Sloane Stephens to fill the final spot.

Swimming • USA Swimming announces steps to protect athletes: Rocked by allegations of rampant sexual misconduct within its coaching ranks, USA Swimming unveiled a plan Wednesday to make it easier for athletes to report abuse while addressing some of the concerns raised by several lawsuits around the country. The seven-point plan was detailed in an open letter from USA Swimming president Jim Wood and executive director Chuck Wielgus, who said the organization has “a responsibility to help create a safe and positive environment for children and young adults who are our members.”

Golf • Woods enters pair of tournaments: Tiger Woods added two more tournaments Wednesday to a schedule that is not much different from previous years except for the timing. Woods entered The Players Championship and the AT&T National, which benefits his foundation.

It was the second straight week that Woods made an early commitment to a PGA Tour event, allowing for more time to promote his appearance. For years, the world’s No. 1 player waited until the last few days before signing up.

Football • Settlement appears likely in lawsuit vs. Bush: Reggie Bush apparently has reached an out-ofcourt settlement with a fledgling sports marketer who is trying to recoup nearly $300,000 in cash and gifts the star running back and his family allegedly accepted while he was playing at the University of Southern California. Depositions involving the two former marketers who wooed Bush while he was at USC have been called off, attorney Brian Watkins told The Associated Press on Wednesday. Settlement documents could be filed in court within days.

AL ROUNDUP Mariners 4, Orioles 1 SEATTLE — Mariners ace Felix Hernandez threw the eighth complete-game of his career, limiting Baltimore to a lone unearned run, and Jack Wilson provided a decisive three-run double as Seattle kept the Orioles reeling. Seattle completed the three-game sweep of the Orioles, who dropped to 2-14 and continued the worst start for the franchise since losing their first 21 games in 1988 to set a major league record.

Hernandez (2-0) wasn’t his sharpest, but didn’t need to be against the Orioles despite Kevin Millwood (0-3) throwing a complete-game for Baltimore in the loss.

Hernandez allowed nine singles and didn’t walk a batter.

Outlaws claim boys golf victory Bulletin staff report LEBANON — Medalist John Standen led the Outlaws to victory among four other boys golf squads at the Mallard Creek Golf Course on Wednesday.

Standen posted a total score of 4-over-par 76 after shooting a 1-under 35 on the back nine.

Sisters head coach Jeff Barton was happy with the winning team score of 331 considering the Outlaws were missing one golfer on account of an injury.

“We’ve been struggling a little bit,” Barton said. “So it was nice to come back and win this one today.”

Aaron Simundson added an 83, Cody Farr recorded an 85 and Zach Cummings ended the day with an 87 for Sisters.

In other prep events: BOYS GOLF Redmond places fifth at 18-team event NORTH PLAINS — Landon Moore shot a 1-under-par 70 to lead Redmond to a fifthplace finish at the Liberty Invitational at Pumpkin Ridge Golf Club. The Panthers shot 305 as a team, eight strokes back of tournament champion West Albany, which posted a 297.

GIRLS GOLF Summit fifth at 15-team invitational BANKS — Summit placed fifth place while Redmond finished ninth among 15 teams at the Vikings Ladies Invitational at Quail Valley Golf Course. Leading the Storm were Kristen Parr and Rebecca Kerry, who both shot 94 on the par-72 course to finish tied for 15th. Redmond’s low scorer was Rheannan Toney, who posted a 105.

La Pine finishes third COTTAGE GROVE — Samantha McPherson posted a 105 for La Pine, which placed third overall with a team score of 457 in the seven-team tournament at Middlefield Golf Course. Marist’s Tierney Werner took medalist honors with a 14-over-par 81 on the par67 course to lead the Spartans to the team victory.

Postseason Continued from D1 Last Saturday, Michael Hirko struck out eight Bulldog batters over nine innings for one win, and Travis Wiest pitched a threehit shutout in the other. Bend and Pendleton, teams that have battled for the IMC title the last three years — the two programs tied for first in 2008, then the Lava Bears won two out of three games against the Buckaroos during the final weekend of league play to claim last year’s IMC championship — end the regular season with a three-game series against one another, starting May 14.

In IMC softball action, Pendleton (9-0 IMC) and The Dalles-Wahtonka (8-1) appear to have wrapped the league’s top two seeds for the Class 5A state playoffs, but the race for the final two postseason berths is wide open.

Heading into this weekend’s games, Mountain View (5-4 IMC) is in third place while Summit (4-5) and Hermiston (4-5) are tied for fourth.

Connor Lau paced the offense in the game two win by going three for four at the plate.

Redmond now stands at 4-6 in league and 8-8 overall.

TRACK AND FIELD Campbell leads Summit boys in IMC win THE DALLES — Summit senior Brett Campbell won the boys 100- and 200-meter races during the Storm’s Intermountain Conference dual meet victory over The DallesWahtonka. Summit topped the Eagle Indians 83.5-76.6. William Butler also added a pair of wins for Summit in the long jump and triple jump. Madison Walker paced the Storm girls with victories in the 1,500 and 3,000 distance races. Summit rolled past The Dalles-Wahtonka 104-54 in the girls competition. Lindsey Langer also had two first-place finishes for the Storm, posting top throws in the discus and javelin.

Mountain View teams sweep Madras MADRAS — Mountain View defeated Madras 118-50 in the boys competition while the Cougars topped the host White Buffaloes 120.5-50.5 in the girls meet. For Mountain View, Dimitri Dillard won the 200- and 400-meter boys races, and Evan Malone was champion in both the 110- and 300-meter hurdle events. Kenny Bent also had a pair of victories as he won the long and triple jumps.

On the Cougar girls team, Mikhaila Thornton captured wins in the 400 and 1,500 and Madison Seevers took first in the high jump and triple jump. For the White Buffaloes, Trevor Barrett recorded discus and javelin victories, while Larissa Moon won the 300-meter hurdles and Hannah Mikkelson took first in the girls discus.

Redmond boys post sweep at double dual SALEM — Travis Simpson won the long jump, high jump and triple jump and Duel Christiansen added a win in shot put as the Panthers boys squad surged past Sprague 8857 and West Salem 89-56 in a pair of Central Valley Conference dual meets. On the girls side, Sarah MacKenzie (1,500-meter race), Tefna Mitchell (100) and Karlee Nordstrom (200) all placed first in running events for Redmond, but the Panthers came up short against Sprague 100-44 and lost to West Salem 83-53.

Madras (3-6) and Crook County (3-6) are lurking in sixth place.

One of the most impressive Central Oregon softball teams this year is playing at the Class 4A level. Through its first four league games, Sisters is 4-0 and atop the Sky-Em League standings. The Outlaws, who are 13-3 overall, have outscored their league opponents 51-4 this season. Senior pitcher Dara Kosanke has won all four league games. In her last outing, Kosanke struck out 13 in the Outlaws’ 6-4 victory over Elmira.

“We’re doing a lot of things well in a lot of areas,” says Sisters coach Tom Mauldin.

“Pitching, fielding, hitting and running the bases. We still have work to do, but we’re 13-3 with two losses coming against 6A schools.”

Redmond High is also making a playoff push in softball. The Panthers are 7-3 through 10 Central Valley Conference games, putting them in third place in the Class 6A league.

DALLAS — Richard Jefferson bounded right out of Spurs coach Gregg Popovich’s doghouse.

Knowing he was among the guys Popovich thought “played like dogs” in the opener, Jefferson scored 17 of his 19 points in the first half to help San Antonio beat the Dallas Mavericks 102-88 in Game 2 on Wednesday night to tie their first-round series at a game apiece.

Jefferson responded exactly the way Popovich hoped. He matched his Game 1 points in the opening minutes and was seven of nine by halftime, several coming during a 12-1 surge that broke the game open for good.

Dallas’ Dirk Nowitzki went from hardly missing in Game

THE BULLETIN • Thursday, April 22, 2010 D5

Ryan Brennecke / The Bulletin

Bend’s Danny Verdieck, right, extends his lead over his competitors while competing in the 110-meter hurdles Wednesday at Bend High. Verdieck won the event.

Track Continued from D1 Seth Platsman also had a productive day for the Bend boys as he won the 400 and 800. Chase Collins added a victory in the triple jump and a runner-up finish in the long jump for the Lava Bears.

Jordan Reeher provided Crook County’s lone win in the boys competition by outperforming the

Trout Continued from D1 In very shallow water over weeds, a floating lure with a shallow dive is the best choice, but a suspending bait like the Daiwa TD Minnow or DB Minnow is better in depths of 2 to 4 feet.

The biggest fish hold in deeper water. For a chance at Mr. Big, take a jerkbait out in 20 to 30 feet of water or troll a swim bait.

Brown likes to use lead core line to get the bait down deep and keep it there.

“They like to track the bait and come up real fast out of deeper water to slam it. Get down in the zone where you can score on those big fish. They don’t have to come in shallow. They can make their living feeding on bigger stuff.”

Midmorning to midafternoon When the sun comes up and ospreys start to hunt, trout back out of the shallows. Some anglers go back to camp, but there are still fish to catch.

Darren Roe, an outfitter from Klamath Falls, changes the presentation when the sun is on the water.

“Slow your baits down. The trout are going to drop down in the thermocline because of the light and the temperature and they’re going to get comfortable.”

This is the time to sweeten the deal. “I’m really a believer in scents. You have to freshen things up every five to 15 minutes max, if you’re not getting bit.”

Once Roe finds fish, he adjusts his trolling gear to present the lure in the feeding zone. “Fish to 2 to 4 feet above them. Trout always look up, they never look down.”

Roe likes flash and the more, the better. “The more people with rods and the more flashers, the more it looks like a school of feeding fish. That triggers the feeding instinct.”

Trolling is one of the most effective midday techniques, but many people don’t like it because

NFL Continued from D1 “I hope Sam goes one,” McCoy said. “That’s a statement you can write down and pencil it in. I hope Sam goes one. Sam is my boy.”

And then McCoy can sack him when they meet in the pros?

“After he gets picked, then I’m (going to) kill him. That’s how it goes.”

Oklahoma tackle Trent Williams, another likely high pick, also believes Bradford is the wise choice for the Rams.

“Sam? You know, the question is what doesn’t he do well,” Williams said. “I’m his teammate and I’ve really rarely seen a mistake out of Sam.” Making a mistake in the first round of a draft can damage a franchise for years. This time, though, the collection of talent is so deep that many players ranked by some teams as opening-round quality could be on the board Friday. And with as many as 18 hours to analyze them even more closely, the second round just might be wild.

Suppose quarterbacks Colt McCoy and Tim Tebow, consummate winners in college, are around.

Or Oklahoma State wide receiver Dez Bryant, whose off-field issues could scare away suitors on today. Or a slew of running backs, from Jonathan Dwyer of Georgia

field in the long jump.

In the girls competition, Jenna Mattox took first in the 800 and 3,000 for the Lava Bears. Shawni Wall finished the day strong as well, winning the long jump and taking second in the triple jump.

Tasha Stever (100), Makinski Gregory (200), Clara LaGrande (shot put), Kayla Struck (javelin) and the Cowgirls’ 400-meter relay team all posted wins for Crook County.

of the weight of the gear it takes to reach and attract fish. One good option is the Flash Lite Troll from Mack’s Lure. The four blade series is 28 inches long with eight revolving mylar blades that measure 2-7⁄8 inches each. The counter-rotating blades feature 80 percent less drag than metal blades.

An afternoon wind can be a boon. Fish the windy side, where the wind is blowing into the bank.

The wind creates a lot of current and concentrates plankton, bugs and little fish in shallow water.

The wind and wave action creates a mud line that washes from the bank out about 10 to 15 yards.

In the dirty water, fish go on the feed. Fly anglers can put an intermediate clear sinking line to good use by twitch-trolling a Woolly Bugger through the soup.

The evening bite In those last two hours of light, the cycle begins again as the fish stage at the transitions, preparatory to moving back into the shallows. With the light from the side, trout feed with renewed confidence in 5 to 10 feet of water and then as the light fades away, in depths from 1 to 6 feet.

Prospect with a 1/6-ounce Rooster Tail spinner until you find the fish, then switch to pink plastics, small spoons or other baits.

In the morning, provoke predatory browns and rainbows with suspending minnow imitations and jerk baits. When the sun is up, switch gears and tease up trout with a trolling rig. In the late afternoon, if there is still room in the cooler, tempt bigger rainbows with finessed pink plastic worms and grubs.

With techniques tuned to time period and light level, an angler can go armed to catch trout at any time of the day.

Tech to Jahvid Best of Cal to Ryan Mathews of Fresno State to Toby Gerhart of Stanford.

It all could lead to lots of trades — or paralysis by analysis.

“Again, because this is a strong draft and there are some very good picks, we feel, in that 19 to 32 area as well as definitely into the second and third round, it’s definitely worthy of discussion,” Falcons GM Thomas Dimitroff said of moving up or down.

“It’s a slow process,” new Bills GM Buddy Nix said of rebuilding through the draft. “We’ve got nine picks. We need to hit on all nine, and that’s hard to do sometimes.

We’ve got holes to fill.”

Filling holes this year could be easier than in most in such a loaded draft.

“Every team is going to improve by next weekend,” Patriots coach Bill Belichick said. “Whatever teams draft and whatever moves they make they will be a better team than they were right now.”

Fishing season is almost here

Continued from D1 Karen Brown, owner of Paulina Lake Lodge, said this week that she hopes to have the gate open for Paulina Lake anglers by May 1, when she believes the ice will be melted.

She said East Lake will likely not be accessible until later in May. Paulina and East lakes are the highest in elevation among the Cascade lakes and generally are the last to thaw.

Olson said most roads leading up to the Cascade lakes southwest of Bend will be cleared in time for opening day, including Forest Roads 40 and 42, as well as Cascade Lakes Highway from Deschutes Bridge south to Crescent Cutoff Road. The gate at Deschutes Bridge will remain closed on opening day, Olson said.

The road department typically waits until after the annual Pole Pedal Paddle — a multisport race that starts at Mount Bachelor and includes nearly 2,000 participants — to open Cascade Lakes Highway west of Bachelor to Deschutes Bridge. This year’s race is scheduled for May 15.

Olson added that, in general, snowplowing in the area is ahead of schedule this spring, but not as much as might be expected.

“There’s a thick layer of ice from snowmobiles packing down the snow,” he said. “There’s just as much ice as there is in deepersnow years.”

In 2008, after a particularly harsh Central Oregon winter, Wickiup Reservoir and Twin Lakes were the only Cascade lakes accessible for opening day.

This year many lakes will be accessible, but cold weather could hamper angler effort and success.

“The winter’s been mild relative to snow, but it stays cold and there’s still snow up there,” Wise said. “A lot of (angler success) will depend on the weather trends.

If the nights stay cool, it will pro-

ceed on an average-year basis. But there’ll be good fishing on opening day.”

Wise said that Crane Prairie Reservoir should fish well for rainbow trout and bass, and that anglers on Wickiup Reservoir will have good chances to land brown trout and rainbow trout, as well as bass in the shallows.

Jody Schatz, owner of Crane Prairie Resort, said that Crane Prairie Reservoir has been free of ice for two weeks, and that the access roads are clear into the lake.

“The fish have been jumping,” Schatz said. “We lucked out. Our ice came off before that big snowstorm (three weeks ago), but Lava (Lake)

still has ice. We had good fishing last year, and I figure it will carry over. The water’s warming up to where the fish are getting active.”

Wise added that North Twin Lake, open all year, has been fishing well for rainbow trout. Another lake open year-round, Crescent Lake, farther south in Klamath County, has yielded solid catches of brown trout and lake trout (mackinaw) this spring, Wise said.

Just north of Crescent Lake, Odell Lake is renowned for its potential kokanee catches on opening day. Wise said kokanee anglers on Odell should get on the water just as the sun is coming up, as the bite can taper by as early as 8 a.m. before it SPRING AND TRIBUTARY RESTORATION IN THE OCHOCO MOUNTAINS: May 11, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., meeting with National Forest Service hydrologist Cindy Quezada to look at existing projects and future project areas that will conserve vital redband trout habitat in the headwaters of the Crooked River System; at Deep Creek Campground, Paulina; 541480-6976 or www.deschutestu.org.

DESCHUTES RIVER (Mouth to the Northern Boundary of the Warm Springs Reservation): The Deschutes River upstream of the northern border of the Warm Springs Indian Reservation will re-open this Saturday. The Deschutes River is open to angling for steelhead and trout from the mouth upstream to the northern border of the Warm Springs Indian Reservation. Spring chinook anglers should grab your gear and head out to Sherars Falls on the lower Deschutes. A good run of springers is predicted to the Deschutes and should peak at Sherars Falls in early May. Bait anglers can try their luck from Sherars Falls downstream to the railroad trestle below Buckhollow Creek.

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 blue-wing 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.

LAKE BILLY CHINOOK: Trout fishing has improved over the last two weeks.

Several legal-sized bull trout (longer than 24 inches) 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 caddis, with a few March Browns as well. The main-stem Metolius upstream from Allingham Bridge is currently closed to angling.

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.

PINE HOLLOW RESERVOIR: Pine Hollow has been recently stocked and should offer great spring fishing for trout.

Anglers have the opportunity to catch all size classes of trout, including large trophy trout.

PRINEVILLE YOUTH FISHING POND: The pond is open to children 14 and younger with a bag limit of five fish.

ROCK CREEK RESERVOIR: Rock Creek Reservoir has been recently stocked and should offer great spring fishing for trout. Anglers have the opportunity to catch all size classes of trout including large trophy trout.

SUTTLE LAKE: No recent angler reports, though the lake is accessible and fishable. The brown trout angling should be good with some potential for kokanee.

TAYLOR LAKE: Taylor Lake has been stocked with rainbow trout and should offer a great opportunity to catch trout this spring. Additionally, a couple hundred adult steelhead have been released in Taylor recently.

HOOD RIVER: Flows are good on the Hood River with good numbers

FLY-TYING CORNER

By Gary Lewis

PERFECT UTILITY VEHICLE FOR THE HUNTER, RANCHER AND FARMER

For The Bulletin

To catch bigger fish you sometimes need to use flies that imitate smaller fish. The Christmas Present, with its red tungsten bead, drops fast like a minnow in open water seeking the safety of the bottom. In some streams, large trout and char make a living on the fry that feed in the shallows and hide in the weeds.

Target these prowling predators with flies designed to imitate the small baitfish.

In shallow water, use a floating line and cast along weedbeds, to drop-offs, the seams of riffled water and shoreline brush. In deeper water, use a sink-tip to reach submerged bull trout, browns, brooks and rainbows. Employ a retrieve that imitates a panicked or wounded baitfish.

Tie the Christmas Present with black thread on a No. 8 streamer hook. Slide a red 5⁄32 -inch tungsten bead up against the eye of the hook.

For the tail, use medium olive marabou to extend a bit longer than the length of the hook

picks back up in the late afternoon.

Wise noted too that Odell is also a good lake on which to fish for lake trout and rainbow trout.

“Not a lot of people target rainbows (on Odell),” he said, “but there’s some nice ones.”

The biologist added that anglers should be aware that the Upper Deschutes from Little Lava Lake downstream to Benham Falls is closed to angling until May 22.

But most lakes are open, and as the weather heats up, so, too, should the angling.

“There’s still a lot of cold water in the system,” Wise explained. “(The water) warming up at night and staying warm is the key.

Overall, I think with the water situation, this year should bode well for some pretty good fishing on opening day.”

CROOKED RIVER BELOW BOWMAN DAM: Fish are rising to hatches during the noon hour; anglers are encouraged to use dry fly techniques and strategies similar to those on larger rivers like the Deschutes. Crooked River flows have been over 1,000 cfs for a week and all fish appeared healthy during a survey of the river on April 19. Redband trout are currently spawning in the river and the Crooked River Flyfishers have marked spawning redds. We ask anglers to avoid disturbing the substrate in these areas.

of winter steelhead being caught by anglers. Spring weather has been warming the Hood and increasing catch rates as the water warms. Good returns of winter steelhead in the Hood have produced good fishing and should continue into early May.

Spring continues to move up the mountains

By David Jasper The Bulletin

The new snow that fell at higher elevations overnight Tuesday “is probably pretty good stuff — right now,” Chris Sabo, Deschutes National Forest trails specialist, said Wednesday.

And with daily temperatures expected to climb into the 60s a few of the next several days, it likely won’t last long.

“Snow conditions are probably going to be limited to those higher elevations out of Dutchman,” Sabo said.

“Those lower sno-parks — Meissner, Swampy — maybe 2 or 3 inches of new accumulation, and that could be gone in a day of (temperatures in the) 50s.”

County plowing efforts from the south continue on Cascade Lakes Highway, “so snowmobilers out using the highway past Todd Lake Road, heads up on that; they will run into plowing operations further out.”

Most of Newberry Crater’s sno-parks are kaput for the winter, Sabo said, although Ten-Mile Sno-park continues to endure.

With the expected warm temperatures, crowds on trails at Phil’s Trail, Deschutes River Trail, the Metolius River and Peterson Ridge trails could be a little on the heavy side.

“Be cognizant of other people on the trails — the bikers, hikers, runners, strollers — even out on Phil’s Trail and the river. As traffic starts picking up on these nice, sunny, spring days, especially for the bikers, they should be yielding to other uses and be aware of slower traffic uses, and stock use as well.”

onday, during a slightly protracted lunch break, The Bulletin sports reporter Mark Morical and I drove to the parking area for Phil’s Trail, just west of Bend off of Skyliners Road. I’d seen the “NOONR” stickers on vehicles around town, but I’d never actually experienced one myself.

Morical was on his $1,100 mountain bike with all its fancy suspension, sleek lines and functioning parts. I was on the clunky mountain bike I bought off a former coworker for around $20 or $30 five years ago. With its playful habit of slipping into different gears, it keeps me on my toes.

Another thing I’d never done in some eight-and-a-half years of living in Bend is actually ride a bike on Phil’s Trail. Shameful, but there it is. It’s a load off my mind just admitting my problem.

E2 Thursday, April 22, 2010 • THE BULLETIN

CBS developing ‘View’-style talk show with Cleaning their plates could be hazardous to kids’ health Julie Chen to replace ‘As the World Turns’ Dear Abby: “Milwaukee Grandma” (Feb. 16) was “appalled to see the number of adults who forced their children to eat” in restaurants. “Grandma” is absolutely right. Children will eat when hungry and stop when they have had enough. The old saying “Clean your plate” is contributing to the obesity epidemic. Children are born with the ability to self-regulate their food intake. Notice how many babies move their heads away from the bottle or breast when they are full.

Eating out is expensive, and restaurants tend to serve portions that are larger than necessary for a child’s small stomach.

Instead of forcing the child to finish, parents should take half the dinner home for a later time.

The obesity epidemic is based on many factors, including excessive meal portions, decreased physical activity, abundance of junk food, and lack of available and affordable healthy foods in some areas of the country — to name a few.

Parents can make a difference by involving their children in the shopping for and preparation of meals, eating as a family with the TV shut off and making activity fun and a part of the everyday routine.

— Dietitian In Gardner, Mass.

Dear Dietitian: Thank you for enlightening me regarding the obesity epidemic. A number of other readers weighed in on the topic with interesting insights.

DEAR ABBY

“Eating out is expensive, and restaurants tend to serve portions that are larger than necessary for a child’s small stomach. Instead of forcing the child to finish, parents should take half the dinner home for a later time.” decided what to order us kids in restaurants. Eating became a negative experience as I was growing up.

It wasn’t until I got counseling prior to my gastric bypass surgery that I learned to stop eating when I was full instead of feeling guilty unless I cleaned my plate. In counseling, I was told it was OK to leave food on my plate — but by then I weighed 400 pounds.

It’s better to teach children to eat at mealtime, be responsible when it comes to snacking and “listen to your body” when it

By Matea Gold says, “I’m full.”

— Happy With My Weight Now Dear Abby: As a family and consumer sciences educator, one of the courses I teach in child development is “division of responsibility.” This means it’s the parents’ responsibility to offer nutritious food choices to their children, and the children’s responsibility to decide how much to eat.

By forcing children to “clean their plate,” we are overriding the natural programming they are born with that tells them when they are full and to stop eating. When we teach children to eat past natural satiation, obesity is the natural consequence.

— Laura In Moscow, Idaho Dear Abby: We have one child with severe food allergies and two others who have ADD and emotional issues. Their medications decrease their appetites, which makes it difficult for them to gain weight and grow. We may be the parents “Milwaukee Grandma” is referring to as we urge our children to eat more.

There are many children out there with medical challenges that make getting enough nutrients difficult. Other illnesses require some kids to consume a certain number of calories. For some, being in the “Clean Plate Club” is critical to their health and well-being.

Los Angeles Times

CBS is developing several new daytime offerings to take the place of the longrunning soap “As the World Turns,” including a “View”style talk show fronted by “Early Show” co-anchor and “Big Brother” host Julie Chen.

Chen — who has been on maternity leave since she and her husband, CBS Chief Executive Leslie Moonves, had a son in September — will tape a pilot for the talk show in early May, according a person familiar with the discussions. The news of the pilot was first reported by The New York Post’s Page Six. Other possible candidates for the program, which is being conceived of as a mom-oriented take on topical subjects, are actresses Sara Gilbert and Lisa Rinna, and Bethenny Frankel of “Real Housewives of New York City.”

It’s unclear how the talk show would affect Chen’s post on “The Early Show,” which she has co-hosted since 2002.

Chen, who has been at her home in Los Angeles during

her leave, is gearing up to return to the morning show in the next few weeks, according to a network source. Last week, she taped an interview with George Lopez that aired on the program, and she plans to officially come back in mid-May, anchoring for a time out of the New York studio, the source said. Chen is then expected to return to Los Angeles in the summer to tape the reality show “Big Brother,” but will continue hosting “The Early Show” from there.

The “View”-style talk show is just one pilot CBS is considering to replace “As The World Turns,” which is slated to end in September after 54 years on the air. The network is also piloting several other talk shows and game shows. Earlier this month, The Hollywood Reporter noted that CBS had ordered up a pilot of a new version of “Pyramid,” originally hosted by Dick Clark in the 1970s.

A CBS spokesman declined to comment.

Last year, when “Guiding Light” went off the air after 72 years, the network replaced it with “Let’s Make A Deal,” hosted by Wayne Brady.

David Jasper / The Bulletin

Riders on Phil’s Trail reach an intersection with a familiar sight: a replica of the “Phoenix Rising” sculpture at 14th Street and Galveston Avenue in Bend.

Biking Continued from E1 Morical gave me a tutorial in mountain bike etiquette: If you’re going downhill, stop and move out of the way for those riding uphill.

Once we mounted our bikes and put on helmets, we hurried down the trail, zipping past pines and angling around rocks. Some of the trees are close enough to the trail that they seem to all but dare your handlebars to make contact. Once you get up some speed, who wants to brake?

Time seemed to stop as we pedaled along this beautiful part of Deschutes National Forest, getting into that hypnotic zone that makes exercise not only tolerable but so often enjoyable.

This is really just a fancy way of dressing up the fact that I don’t know how long it took us to reach the flaming chicken replica.

Later on, I spoke to Woody Starr, chairman of the board at COTA, who said, “I don’t know who put it there.”

The sculpture has been there for a few years, he said, in various incarnations.

“At first it was a plywood rendering of it, and then somebody got a hold of another version of it, and then that one came. So this is the third one, I believe.

There’s a lot of speculation, but as in the early days of trail building and other activities in the forest, the actual artist or owner doesn’t come forward,” he says, chuckling.

There’s more art out on the trail for those seeking it, Starr said, including a giant bike sculpture and a forest gnome.

“It’s kind of like Bend, you know. We don’t discourage public art,” he said. “It’s a good thing to have, some creative expression. We’ve found that the Forest Service doesn’t outwardly object.”

Deschutes National Forest Trails Specialist Chris Sabo agrees with that assessment, more or less.

Trails Continued from E1 Sabo also mentioned that there have been closures of usergenerated “social” trails along the Deschutes River near Lava Island.

“We’ve been rehabbing some of those user trails, closing them down, trying to get them back into a natural state,” he said. “If it’s an access they’ve used in the past, we’re asking them not to

“We’ll see how far it goes. We try to keep our trails in more of a natural state,” he said. “I guess ‘tolerant’ is a good word for it.”

“Being that that’s more of a close, urban trail, I guess that’s where we’re tolerating it. If it was further out, we’d likely be removing things like that,” he added. For the time being, “it’s kind of considered local artwork for the trails.”

While stopped at the flaming chicken, we encountered Mark Van Hilten, 44, who said he rides the trail daily.

“I moved here about four years ago and just love it,” he said, catching his breath. “I just ended up driving down here from Portland every weekend to mountain bike, and then my sales position moved over here. Enjoying every day of it. Work a little bit, ride a little bit.”

Sounds like a nice work day to me.

The trail to and from was fairly easy except for one slightly challenging, body-jarring rocky stretch, although even that was easy compared to the network of trails you reach if you pedal deeper into the forest and up into the hills. I was getting tired just hearing Morical talk about them.

As he knows what he’s doing on a mountain bike, at times, he was 30 or 40 feet ahead of me.

This might bother other riders, but not me. It was an improvement on when we go snowboarding together and he gets so far ahead I lose sight of him.

On the ride, he occasionally waited up so we could talk, mostly about how he, like Van Hilten, wants to make “NOONR” rides a regular part of his lunch menu.

Toward the end of our ride, he piped up, “So do you want to be a mountain biker now?”

“Yeah,” I said, pausing a beat as I considered the light rain coming down versus my desk chair, whose little plastic wheels I ride daily. “Kinda.”

continue using those. Those user trails are causing erosion; some of them come straight off the hillside and down to the hiker trail.”

Trails around Horse Butte, which are primarily for horses but are also popular with mountain bikers, should be in great shape for the weekend, as well as Smith Rock in Terrebonne.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Thursday, April 22, 2010: This year, express your anger in an appropriate manner. You could be overwhelmed by events in your personal and/or domestic life. Confusion often surrounds interactions. Bone up on those skills, learning to confirm and affirm. If you are single, you will experience the possibility of a meaningful relationship through a friendship. If you are attached, the two of you enjoy socializing.

Do more of it. LEO can be testy.

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 A misunderstanding could threaten chaos to the best-laid plans.

When facing a setback, get back on your feet and find another path to the same point. Tonight: Kick up your heels. Start the weekend early.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHH The Bull is in prime form, as long as he or she is not in a strange situation. You like to do everything well. When on new turf, you might make a slip or two.

Know that you are normal. Know that this is as it should be. Give yourself the space to be human.

Tonight: At home relaxing.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH Keep conversations moving. You might not be comfortable with everything you hear, but make that OK. Sometimes people don’t think before they speak. This could be one of those times. Be willing

to understand another person’s distress. Tonight: Chat up a storm.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Be sensitive to your needs.

You go to extremes, either being very self-indulgent or very stoic.

Though you tend to swing back and forth like a pendulum, attempt to stay on middle ground. Your stability is more important in relating than you realize. Tonight: Just hang in there.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHHH Many can sense when you walk in the room. Confusion can surround work or someone you put on a pedestal. You might feel out of sorts as you see situations developing, but you might not be sure of your role in the problem. It is there. Tonight: Let go of today and live in the now.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHH You could be angrier than you acknowledge. What occurs could be the result of suppressed anger, whether it is a health issue or a problem with someone.

Ground out, center and find out what is really ailing you. Tonight: Talk to someone who sees life much differently from you.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH A friend keeps hammering for the same thing over and over.

You might be fed up, and the way you express this feeling depends on you. If what this person suggests is feasible, why not go for it?

Tonight: Only where the action is.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HH No one can be more stubborn than Ms. or Mr. Scorp. Today, you could prove that fact once more!

Perhaps taking action to instrument change would be more worthwhile.

Your creativity seems to be on the downswing, probably because you are not dealing with some strong feelings, and are holding them back.

Tonight: Count on another late one.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHHH If you can keep your perspective, nothing too challenging will come in your direction. Many people seem to be acting out of character, causing feelings to arise. Step back and pretend you are watching a play. What you see might even be funny! Tonight: Try a new spot, a new place, a new type of cuisine or maybe even a new site on the Internet.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHHH No one likes being dictated to, especially our Goat. A partner feels that you need to follow his or her pre-scripted game plan. How you reject this person’s ideas and the level of diplomacy you use define the outcome. Be careful! Tonight: Listen more. Observe carefully.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH Defer to those around you.

Rather than being criticized or being critical, just know that the issue in question is out of your hands. “What a relief” might be the response. Now go off and do what you love or want to do. Can’t decide? Indulge yourself.

Tonight: Accept an invitation.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Tackle your work or must-do list. You will feel best if you don’t sit on your duff. In fact, it could be amazing what you are capable of accomplishing if you just do.

Give up overanalyzing for at least a day. Tonight: Stay physical. © 2009 by King Features Syndicate

Fly a little smarter with these numbers

By Steve Huettel, St. Petersburg Times

Just like when big-league batters hit a homer or strike out, airlines tally a score every time one of their flights pulls up to the gate.

If a plane arrives 15 minutes or more behind schedule, it counts against the flight’s ontime record. Airlines routinely report the numbers to the U.S. Department of Transportation.

Each month, the feds publish each carrier’s overall on-time percentage.

Only the worst of the worst flights — those that run late 80 percent of the time or more — make the list of shame.

Starting this summer, the DOT will require that all but the smallest U.S. airlines disclose the ontime performance of every flight on their Web sites. Some carriers already provide this during the booking process. Others — Southwest Airlines, JetBlue Airways and AirTran Airlines among them — don’t yet.

Airline reservation agents also will give you the numbers, but

only if you ask. The new rules won’t apply to on-line travel sites or travel agents.

But will consumers care? Even if the flight they want is consistently really, really late?

Travelers traditionally base their buying decisions on price and schedule. Membership in an airline’s loyalty program sometimes tips the scales.

Airlines, through their trade organization, argued to the DOT that a flight’s on-time record isn’t much value in predicting how it will perform later. More than 70 percent of flight delays and cancellations are caused by weather, said the Air Transport Association.

Still, why not give consumers the data and let them decide whether a carrier’s track record on a particular route is relevant?

“We all live by our statistics,” says Joe Brancatelli, publisher of the business travel Web site JoeSentMe.com. “If you show me six flights and their records are 20, 60 and 80 percent on time, why wouldn’t I pick the best one?”

Besides listing the basic ontime percentage, the DOT will require “special highlighting” of chronically delayed flights — those that run more than 30 minutes late more than half the time.

“These delays are the kind that are likely to result in missed connections and other serious problems,” the agency wrote in its final order on the rules. Armed with a chronic delay warning, consumers might book an earlier flight, pick another airline or even drive if it’s a short hop.

Doesn’t that sound better than sitting in some airport wishing you were home?

By Markian Hawryluk The Bulletin

wenty years ago, if you had heard that a town in eastern Oregon had no doctor, you might have wondered how its residents survived. Or if your sister told you she hadn’t seen a doctor in 10 years, you might be worried. And if a friend said he had surgery without an anesthesiologist present, you’d be downright stunned.

But as health care in the U.S. has evolved during the past four decades, doctors have slowly lost their monopoly on medicine. A host of new health providers, without MDs behind their names, has arrived to fill in the gaps of our health care system.

A rural town might now rely on a MONEY physician assistant for primary care services. A woman could get her routine gynecological care from a nurse practitioner, and a rural hospital might rely on a certified nurse anesthetist to provide anesthesia during surgery. Even in urban areas, where the supply of doctors is plentiful, physicians have turned to physician assistants and nurse practitioners to help them see more patients and provide care more efficiently.

As a shortage of doctors coincides with a ramp-up in demand, particularly for primary care services, each year your odds of seeing a doctor on your next visit get lower and lower. Every year these other health providers — including nurse practitioners, physician assistants and other licensed disciplines — expand both their numbers and their repertoire. It has helped to increase access for patients, but it has also raised questions about patient safety and quality of care.

As a result, health care providers are in the midst of a conflict about their ability to practice medicine, with annual skirmishes on both state and federal battlefields. It has left lawmakers with no medical training trying to arbitrate disputes about who can perform what health care services and trying to balance the desire for greater access against the need for patient safety.

Follow directions when you’re swimming Keep in mind the proper swimming lane etiquette

By Markian Hawryluk The Bulletin

Ten years ago, Art Hutchinson, an avid triathlete in Newton, Mass., was swimming laps.

As he came to the end of the lane, he completed his flip turn, pushing F I T N off of the wall in the opposite direction. At that moment, a woman decided to dive into his lane right over the top of Hutchinson.

“She came down just inches ahead of me,” he said. “I was envisioning myself in a wheelchair.”

Hutchinson grabbed the woman’s leg and confronted her about the dangerous maneuver.

“I go to the lifeguard, she’s crying, I’m upset.

I realized I could have been seriously injured,” he recalled. “I realized this is not just about me getting a clean workout. There really is a safety factor because pools are managed so badly.”

The incident was motivation for Hutchinson to sit down one afternoon and write E S S out the rules of lap swimming etiquette he had learned over the years.

When the pool managers didn’t show much interest in the document, Hutchinson decided to post the rules on the Web site of his financial consulting company.

Then the power of the Internet took over, leaving Hutchinson, who has long since giv-

en up lap swimming, as one of the world’s most frequently cited sources on swimming etiquette.

“This is one of those mundane things that turned into a global phenomenon,” he said.

Rules of the lane Lap swimming is one of the more common pool activities in the U.S., with thousands of participants.

Over the years, swimmers have developed standardized rules, akin to traffic laws for the pool, to ensure that people can swim safely and efficiently. Most swimmers pick up the rules as they get more advanced swim training, particularly those who join competitive swim teams.

Doctor focuses on improving tuberculosis treatments

FREQUENT VISITORS

By Sherry Jacobson The Dallas Morning News

Andy Tullis / The Bulletin

Tucker Forlines, an emergency room technician, pushes a patient through a hallway in St. Charles Bend’s emergency room on a recent afternoon. The hospital is involved in an initiative to get better care to patients who use its emergency room frequently.

Program to coordinate care for ER patients

By Betsy Q. Cliff The Bulletin

Emergency rooms have a core group of patients who show up over and over.

These frequent visitors often have problems that could be dealt with in a doctor’s office, but they either don’t have or don’t use a regular physician. Even though most have insurance, they cost the system, clog up alreadystretched emergency rooms and don’t get the best care for their conditions.

Now, community groups are coming together to try to help get these patients out of the emergency room and into other clinics. The goal is to link each patient with primary care and mental health services, both to better address their problems and to use health care dollars more wisely.

“It’s a one-person-at-a-time approach,” said Robin Henderson, director of behavioral health at St. Charles Health System.

“But you’re looking at a (small) population that costs our health system hundreds of thousands of dollars each year.”

Who they are?

Every emergency room in every hospital has patients who show up time and time again, often with problems that should not be dealt with in the quick-fix atmosphere of the emergency department.

St. Charles Health System studied the patterns of the 50 people who most often used the emergency rooms in the system’s three hospitals — St. Charles Bend, St. Charles Redmond and Pioneer Memorial Hospital in Prineville.

They found that these patients came to the hospital, on average, about twice a month. Most had insurance, typically the Oregon Health Plan, the state’s version of Medicaid. Even with some reimbursement from insurance, these patients cost the hospital system nearly $400,000 in one year, according to Henderson.

“When we see people going 20 to 30 times to the emergency room a year, we need to better understand the circumstances of why they are seeking care there and what would be a better alternative for them,” said Scott Johnson, director of Deschutes County Health Services, which is participating in the project.

The study discovered a typical profile of people who frequented St. Charles’ emergency rooms. They often complained of pain. Most had chronic diseases.

Many had mental health or substance-abuse issues. The majority of people had more than one of these problems.

Because many had mental health issues, that link became particularly important. The new program was guided by the idea that integrating the mental and physical health of these patients was key to keeping them out of the emergency room.

Collaboration The new program is a collaboration of organizations within the community, including insurers, hospitals, addiction treatment services and safety-net health clinics.

In its initial phase, each patient will be assigned a community health worker who will help the patient find primary care, mental health services or other things they might need.

“Our goal would be for (the health workers) to have a really, really strong relationship” with clients, said Alisha Hopper, the executive director of HealthMatters of Central Oregon, a nonprofit involved in the project.

That means, she said, that patients can call the workers when they otherwise might go to the emergency room, even if it’s the middle of the night.

The project will also aim to find a primary care physician and mental health care for each patient, preferably in the same place.

“Just about everyone that’s doing community mental health is understanding that we need to link primary care and behavioral health,” said Johnson.

Patients, he said, particularly those less adept at navigating the health system, do better when their health care is integrated into one place.

Challenges remain The organizers hope the program will be up and running by this summer. There are some obstacles that remain, the largest of which is how to pay for the program.

Currently, patients with the Oregon Health Plan get their mental health coverage and physical health coverage from two separate places with two separate budgets. Right now, there’s no way to combine that money so that patients enrolled in OHP could get their mental health and primary care in the same place.

“That piece needs to be figured out before we can move forward,” said Megan Haase, acting director of Mosaic Medical, a community health clinic that will hire the coordinator and take on many of the new patients.

Another obstacle is finding many of these patients a primary care doctor. Most private primary care clinics in the area, including the largest, Bend Memorial Clinic, do not take new OHP patients because of low reimbursement for services. (BMC does accept OHP patients in specialty services and urgent care.)

That means it falls on clinics that are set up for more OHP patients, including Mosaic and La Pine Community Clinic, to pick up the load.

Currently, Mosaic Medical in Bend has a list of about 200 patients waiting for an appointment, said Haase, though she

said the clinic is “working really diligently” to reduce it.

Still, with that kind of wait, it could be difficult for the clinic to take on additional patients, particularly those with significant health care needs.

“It’s hard,” said Henderson. “If it were a perfect world, I think everyone would take some Medicaid (patients).”

Haase also said that, partially because of the challenges of finding primary care, the project will be starting with a small population, perhaps just those people already enrolled at the Mosaic clinics.

They will first concentrate on the group that they can identify through their records, said Haase. That way, she said, the clinic can “make sure we are moving care in the right way.”

DALLAS — Despite decades of effective treatment, tuberculosis remains one of the leading causes of death around the globe.

TB is second only to HIV/ AIDS among lethal infectious diseases.

“Tuberculosis is an epic disease of mankind,” said Dr. Tawanda Gumbo, a TB researcher at University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center.

“It’s very interesting that we have more TB cases now than in any time in history. It’s a very adaptive infection.”

More than 11 million people around the world had active TB in 2008, and an estimated 1.3 million died from the disease, most of them in Southeast Asia and Africa, according to the World Health Organization.

Gumbo’s latest search has focused on the emergence of drug-resistant TB strains that require different medications to control the symptoms. His lab is attempting to isolate drugs used to treat other diseases that could benefit TB patients.

Gumbo, an associate professor of infectious diseases, also is searching for ways to accelerate TB treatments and improve patient compliance.

“We need more effective therapy to reduce the amount of time it takes for treatments to become effective,” he said.

“And it also would reduce the damage to the lungs that occurs during treatment.”

Usually, TB patients require six to nine months of daily antibiotic treatment before they are cured. The four-drug regimen, developed between the 1940s and 1960s, has been questioned by Gumbo and others, who believe the dosage might not be correct.

VITAL STATS Death rates for heart bypass surgery Death rates for heart bypass surgery Heart bypass surgery is commonly done to treat heart disease. Each year, a small number of patients who receive the surgery die in the hospital and, on this measure, some hospitals do better than others. In Oregon, the average death rate is 2.3 percent of patients. Taking into account the margin of error, no hospitals did better than this average rate and only one, Legacy Emanuel Hospital in Portland, did worse.

M Conflict

Next week How does St. Charles’ new immediate care affect the competition among local medical groups?

Growth of physician assistants in clinical practice in the U.S.

Continued from F1 “In every single session that I’ve been involved with, we’ve always agonized about some sort of scope-of-practice issue,” said Oregon Senate President Peter Courtney, D-Salem. “I don’t have any kind of medical training, and yet I’m supposed to make decisions, so that Oregonians who need medical services can expect that that person has the qualifications, the medical expertise and background to take care of their medical needs.”

While lawmakers can listen to testimony from experts on both sides, Courtney said they have little confidence in their decisions.

“We just made one in February on psychologists,” he said.

“If truth be known, a lot of us are saying, ‘I hope it’s right, I’m not sure it’s right, and I can’t guarantee it’s right, because I don’t have the background.’”

additional years of training to become specialists. Nurse practitioners and physician assistants generally complete two- to three-year graduate programs but must also have significant health experience — for example as a nurse or emergency medical technician — as a prerequisite.

In 2004, the American Association of Colleges of Nursing, however, announced it plans by 2015 to require a four-year doctorate in nursing for nurse practitioners. The American Association of Nurse Anesthetists followed suit, announcing the nurse anesthetists would also need a doctorate-level degree by 2025.

It prompted criticism from physician groups that soon nurses would be called doctors as well. “Patients may be confused as to a provider’s credentials,” AMA officials said.

The doctorate of nursing program would be a clinical doctorate rather than an academic or research-oriented doctorate

In 2009, according to the American Medical Association, there were at least 164 initiatives to expand the scope of practice for non-physician providers in the 50 states and the District of Columbia. In Oregon, lawmakers voted to expand prescribing power for naturopathic physicians and grant prescribing rights to psychologists. Gov. Ted Kulongoski signed the naturopath bill into law but vetoed the psychologists’ bill.

“That’s been a continued issue in the state Legislature for years, that there are groups who are looking to expand their practice,” said Dr. Peter Bernardo, president of the Oregon Medical Association. “There are the traditional groups like physician assistants and nurse practitioners, and then there are a lot of other groups that are a level below that also think they should get into the game and provide some of the services.”

Physician groups have argued that health care is best provided through a team approach, in which a blend of health care providers collaborate on the patient’s care under the leadership of a physician.

“The concern becomes when those folks that you’re blending with really aren’t part of the team. You have folks who are practicing independently, who may not know the limits of what they know, and I think that’s the thing we’re concerned about,” Bernardo said. “The folks whose training is a notch below might not recognize when they’re in trouble.”

Efforts to expand scope of practice for non-physician disciplines have met with stern resistance from their physician counterparts. It’s pitted psychologists against psychiatrists, optometrists against ophthalmologists, midwives against obstetricians.

The argument is nearly always the same. The non-physicians argue they have or can obtain adequate training to provide these additional medical services, while the physicians counter that the expansion represents a shortcut that will put patients at risk.

“Everybody wants to be a doctor,” Bernardo said, “but nobody wants to go to medical school.”

Doctors complete a minimum of four years of graduate-level education, plus three years of residency. And many tack on

such as those earned in nonhealth care fields. But the program would not be equivalent to getting a medical degree.

The announcements prompted physician groups to band together to form the Scope of Practice Partnership in 2004 to combat “unwarranted scope of practice expansion.” As part of the effort, the partnership launched a series of 10 reports detailing what they see as the shortcomings of the non-physician health care providers.

“Each year in nearly every state and at times on the federal level, non-physician health care providers lobby state legislatures, their own state regulatory boards and federal regulators for expansions of their scope of practice,” Dr. Michael Maves, AMA’s executive vice president, wrote in the introduction to the reports. “While some scope of practice expansions may be appropriate, others definitely are not.”

A report on nurse practitioners, for example, argued that training for nurse practitioners pales in comparison with that of physicians, and that they may not be adequately trained for independent practice.

Not surprisingly, the reports raised the ire of the groups they were targeting. A group of 27 nurses’ organizations penned a scathing letter to Maves criticizing the nurse practitioner report and the direction of the AMA’s efforts. “It is not appropriate for one health professional group to attempt to discredit the quality of education, credentialing and practice of members of another profession,” the groups wrote.

“A thorough and objective review of the comprehensive data would have found overwhelming evidence of the high quality of care provided by nurse practitioners.”

As the AMA issued reports on other non-physician health disciplines, such as audiologists and oral surgeons, they received the same reply: Don’t try to limit our ability to care for patients.

The disciplines under attack formed their own coalition — the Coalition for Patient Rights

So many ways to say pain. Here’s a new way to say PA IN R E L IE F

Evolution of medicine At the heart of the dispute is when and how scope of practice should be changed. Physicians have a virtually unfettered scope of practice under their medical license, and often perceive expansion efforts by other groups as a desire to practice medicine.

But non-physician providers see scope of practice as more of a dynamic concept.

“It will always change because educational levels change, science is changing, the ability to establish safety and patient outcomes is always changing,” said Rebekah Christensen, executive director of the American Association of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine, one of the coalition’s 35 member organizations. “The interaction of different medical disciplines are always shifting, so requests for scope of practice changes are a natural phenomenon.”

As medical technology advances, it’s common for procedures to migrate from more intensive clinical settings to less intensive ones. Surgeries and procedures that were once done in hospital operating rooms have moved to outpatient facilities and even to physician offices. Procedures that once required doctors can now often be done by physician assistants or nurse practitioners.

Meanwhile, the more consumers are exposed to non-physician providers, the more they can decide whether such providers can meet their needs. And

Team approach

make the best use of all of their training.

“What we need,” Ekblad said, “is for the providers we do have to practice to the top of their scope of practice. A lot of the things that a family practice physician would see in a typical day can easily be handled by a nurse practitioner or a PA. It really behooves the medical community to look at what the needs of their patients are and what’s the most effective way to meet them.”

Many believe the approach of using a team of providers to manage patient care — what’s being called the medical home model — might be the future of medicine.

“The idea is that everyone who is involved in that team should practice at the top of their licensure,” Bernardo said. “And so a primary care doctor or an internist doesn’t necessarily have to be there to see every patient who comes through with a sniffle or needs a routine physical exam. You can save them for the more complex issues.”

Bend Memorial Clinic has recently launched a medical home demonstration project in which it will use physician assistants and nurse practitioners to help manage the care of 4,000 Medicare patients served by the Clear One Medicare Advantage plan. The clinic has instituted same-day appointments for its patients and is using its more than 30 non-physician providers to help facilitate that.

Dr. Sean Rogers, the clinic’s chief medical officer, said doctors at the clinic have been using such mid-level providers for several years to help increase their efficiency in the face of increased demand for services and falling reimbursement.

Once a physician has seen a patient and established a care plan, ongoing care can usually be handled by a physician assistant. It’s a way for physicians to handle a much larger case load of patients than they could on their own.

“They’ve been really helpful in terms of extending a physician’s time and ability to see more patients in a more effective manner,” Rogers said.

“They help to unload some of the time-consuming aspects of care such as documentation.”

But Rogers said physicians may have hit their limit for the number of patients they can see each day even with the help of their PAs. “The need is there for an additional 5, 10, 15 patients a day, and somebody’s got to see those patients,” he said. “So there probably will be an increasing percentage of patients seeing nurse practitioners who can practice independently.”

— to defend themselves against the onslaught.

“These efforts to lobby lawmakers and regulators are not only wasteful and divisive, but do a disservice to the public,” said Maureen Shekleton, a registered nurse and spokeswoman for the group. “There is an abundance of evidence that shows patients achieve equal or better health outcomes at lower cost to themselves and the health care system when they fully incorporate a range of health care professionals in their delivery system.”

with the advent of the Internet, it’s much easier for consumers to check the training and credential standards for the various disciplines, Christensen said.

With so many uninsured individuals in the country, she said it makes no sense to deny consumers what could be lower-cost options for their health care.

“We’re listening to what’s coming out of Washington.

We’ve got cost concerns, we’ve got sustainability concerns, we’ve got supply issues in terms of providers,” Christensen said.

“If we say we want to tighten or restrict scope of practice, not necessarily based on outcome data or really grounded safety concerns, are you really serving patient needs by doing that?”

Patients are already experiencing difficulty getting access to care. Medicare patients often have trouble finding a physician who will take new Medicare patients. The numbers of primary care physicians in the country continues to decline as medical school students gravitate to more lucrative specialties.

“There are parts of the state where the only primary care provider available — the only health care available — is through nurse practitioners and PAs,” said Scott Ekblad, director of Oregon’s Office of Rural Health. “It’s unlikely that we’ll see any drastic change in the supply of providers anytime soon.”

Physician groups argue that the access issue shouldn’t be used to justify expansions of scope that put patients at risk.

They mainly take a hard-line approach: If these providers want to perform medical services such as prescribing drugs, they should get a medical degree.

The other disciplines counter that such a black-and-white approach is unrealistic and that patients can’t wait for medical schools to produce more doctors even if they had the capacity to do so. Instead they’ve backed initiatives, such as prescribing rights for psychologists in Oregon, that can address an immediate need through more targeted medical training.

Susan King, executive director of the Oregon Nurses Association, said the bill passed by the legislature would have set out “pretty stringent” requirements for psychologists who wanted to prescribe.

“You are qualified by virtue of your education and then by what you know how to do,” she said.

“A family practice physician prescribing psychotropic drugs, I don’t think could be argued to be safer than a psychologist with extensive training.”

THE BULLETIN • Thursday, April 22, 2010 F5

M From previous page Health reform advocates have suggested that using more physician assistants and nurse practitioners could also be a way to cut costs. But it’s not a popular notion with either side.

Non-physician providers argue they should receive equal pay for equal work, while physician groups claim the savings don’t materialize because of such mid-level practice patterns.

“You don’t save money,” Bernardo said. “There are studies from areas even within this state that show that mid-level providers tend to be more expensive.”

Bernardo said that’s because such providers, particularly inexperienced ones, often lack the confidence to make a diagnosis without doing additional testing or imaging.

“Mid-levels, as they get more comfortable, they get more experience, they get farther along the apprenticeship journey, then they order less testing or imaging,” he said. “We know that those are expensive. It’s a major driver of cost for our health care system, and there’s some degree of that among physicians as well.

But more experienced physicians are comfortable making the diagnosis without any additional testing.”

A 2005 review of studies looking at how nurses could alleviate the physician and workload costs, for example, found that because nurses spent more time with patients, they saw fewer patients per hour and used more resources, offsetting the costsavings of paying them a lower salary.

Meanwhile, the amount of reimbursement for primary care is so low anyway, particularly in rural areas, there may not be a lot of savings to be gleaned from using non-physician providers.

“Family practice, pediatrics and internal medicine are the three lowest-paying physician specialties of all,” Ekblad said.

“So the income disparity is not as great as you might think.”

Nurse practitioners and physician assistants can bill Medicare and other insurance companies, but they are generally paid only 85 percent of what physicians receive for the same service. Many of those providers have argued that their costs of providing care don’t differ from those physicians incur and they shouldn’t be paid at a lower level.

“To make the argument that we’re cheaper, doesn’t really get us anywhere,” King said on behalf of nurse practitioners. “If we expand primary care and we vest the authority for nurse practitioners to do the things they can do and reserve the physicians for the things they must do, to me, that’s a better way to look at resources.”

Reform obstacle Nationwide, there’s a growing fear, however, that the disputes between physicians and non-physician disciplines could undermine efforts to revitalize primary care. Nurse practitioners and physicians in Oregon have largely been able to avoid the conflicts their counterparts have faced in other states, in part because in the 1970s, Oregon was one of the first states to allow nurse practitioners to practice independently. Courtney and other state senators would like to see an advisory committee of medical experts that could provide recommendations on scope of practice decisions to the Legislature. He’s asked some of the provider groups in Oregon to propose how such a panel might work.

With so much concern about the pressures on primary care providers, some groups are now trying to mend the fences in hopes of providing a more unified call for reform.

Last year, the American College of Physicians went to the extent of releasing a monograph on how physicians and nurse practitioners could work together “as teammates that respect and recognize each profession’s unique contributions and skills.” The group said the autonomy of nurse practitioners has been a point of contention for physicians, but

Sitting should be part of doctors’ exam etiquette, research finds

acknowledged that both groups would be key to meet primary care needs going forward. The document said physicians should be in charge of medical homes, but left open the possibility of testing nurse practitioner-led homes as well.

At least within primary care, physicians and nurse practitioners may find a common bond knowing they face many of the same pressures.

“I’m very proud of nurse practitioners, but a lot of it depends on the environment in which they practice,” King said. “If you give a nurse practitioner only 10 minutes and a physician only 10 minutes, no patient in the world is going to say they are satisfied with either one of them.”

VITAL STATS

It’s a common patient grievance: If only my doctor would take the time to listen to me and explain things.

Maybe all your doctor has to do to remedy that complaint is just … sit … down.

Patients gave their doctor significantly higher marks for satisfaction and thought they had spent more time with him when he sat — rather than stood — by their bedsides, researchers at the University of Kansas Hospital in Kansas City, Kan., found.

In fact, the doctor the researchers studied actually spent slightly less time with patients when he sat with them. And he gave his patients much less time than they realized.

The wisdom of sitting with patients to build rapport has long been a part of medical folklore, something that is taught to students in nursing and medical school.

But there has been very little scientific backing for it. So the researchers set out to test the idea.

They recruited neurosurgeon Paul Arnold as their doctor-guinea pig to see how his patients reacted when he stood or sat.

During the 14-month study, Arnold made his usual visits to

120 of his patients who were in the hospital recovering from routine surgery for back or neck pain.

The researchers picked at random Arnold’s posture for each visit. Another researcher, nurse practitioner Kelli Swayden, stood outside the room with a stopwatch to time Arnold’s visits. After he was done, she would ask the patient questions.

On average, Arnold spent one minute, 28 seconds with patients when he stood and one minute, four seconds when he sat — not a statistically significant difference, the researchers calculated.

But when the patients were asked to estimate the time that Arnold spent with them, on average, the patients who got a standing visit said three minutes, 44 seconds; those who got a sitting visit said five minutes, 14 seconds — a significantly longer time.

As Swayden spoke to the patients, she found a striking difference in how they reacted to Arnold.

To tap into these reactions, the researchers added an openended question to Swayden’s list: What did you think about the interaction with Dr. Arnold?

When Arnold sat, 95 percent of patient comments were positive.

Financial incentives Financial incentives Surgeons who invest in outpatient surgery centers tend to be doctors who performed more procedures even before their investment. But a recent study conducted in Florida showed that once doctors have a financial stake in a surgery center, their surgery rates increase much faster than doctors who didn't invest over the same time period.

Swimming Continued from F1 Yet every pool has its virgin lap swimmers who jump right in without knowing the protocol.

About the time Hutchinson penned his document, he was traveling often for business and so made use of a book by Bill Haverland that listed pools with lap swimming in each city.

Hutchinson wrote to Haverland suggesting a couple of pools he could add to the list, about the same time Haverland was moving his listings to the Internet.

Hutchinson sent him the link to his swim etiquette rules as well.

“A month later, I was checking the traffic from my business, and lo and behold, 80 percent of it is coming from swimmers,” he said.

It turned out that Haverland had included a link to the etiquette rules in every response to a search for a pool on his Web site.

Every time a swimmer searched for a lap swimming pool in Omaha, Neb., or Perth, Australia, he or she was also directed to Hutchinson’s Web site, www.swimmers guide.com.

“I read what he had written and thought it was a pretty good statement of the common sense rules that just about any serious swimmer tried to follow,” Haverland explained. “There are a lot of people who begin lap swimming for the first time — and not a few who may have been doing it for a long time — who have not picked up on the subtle self-organization that lap swimmers do.”

As Haverland’s listings took off, now totaling more than 18,000, so did the distribution of the rules.

“His rules have become the standard because of their prominence on the Internet, because they are well written, and because they reflect what was the common and well-understood practice in the swimming community when he wrote them,” Haverland said.

Hutchinson, 46, has given up competing in triathlons and rarely swims laps anymore. He still gets about an e-mail a month from a swimmer with a suggestion on how to tweak the rules.

He said he has a number of updates he needs to complete.

“It’s mainly just simple stuff. A lot of it is just common sense,” he said. “I was always kind of surprised nobody had written this down before.”

Proper etiquette During the past decade, however, most pools have caught on and now have written rules posted by the pool, online or on paper for lap swimmers to follow. The rules are fairly standard from pool to pool, said Karen Creasey, aquatic director for the Cascade Swim Center in Redmond.

With only one or two swimmers in a lane, swimmers can choose a half lane and swim back and forth. But when a third person wants to enter that lane, the swimmers must then swim in a counter-clockwise fashion.

“The pool is set up to be effective for lap swimming,” Creasey said. “The black line down the middle is like your striped line down the road.”

Swimmers in circle-swimming go up the right side of the lane, turn at the wall and then come down the other side of the lane, just as if they were making a u-

“The main thing the rules are trying to do is to accommodate everybody, with so many different swimming abilities and so many people swimming.”

— Rob Shatting, aquatic coordinator at Juniper Swim & Fitness Center turn on a road. (In countries like England or South Africa, where they drive on the left side of the road, you swim on the left side of the pool lane as well.)

Another cardinal rule is not to stop in the middle of a lane.

“You stop only at the walls. You don’t stop because then you’re going to have people running into you,” Creasey said. “It’s just like a car. You pull over at the rest area, and the rest area for swimming is at the wall.”

Pools generally have separate lanes designated as fast, medium and slow, which minimizes the need for swimmers to pass one another. Lifeguards or other swimmers might suggest you move to a different lane if you’re going much faster or slower than your lane mates.

If you need to pass a swimmer in front of you, the proper protocol is to tap the swimmer gently on the foot, maybe even a couple of times to make sure they know it wasn’t just incidental contact.

That swimmer should then continue on to the end of the lane and stop at the wall, allowing you to pass.

Online resources Art Hutchinson’s Swim Etiquette www.cartegic.com/ pooletiquette.htm Bill Haverland’s Guide to Swimming Pools www.swimmersguide.com Passing midlane is also possible by swimming around the swimmer as long as you can pass safely before reaching an oncoming swimmer or the wall.

“The main thing the rules are trying to do is to accommodate everybody, with so many different swimming abilities and so many people swimming,” said Rob Shatting, aquatic coordinator at the Juniper Swim & Fitness Center in Bend. “If you’re splitting a lane, that only allows two people swimming. If you’re circleswimming in a 50-meter (pool), you can go up to eight swimmers per lane.”

Shatting said most lap swimmers at Juniper know the rules, but sometimes people don’t realize they’re breaking proper etiquette. While that can create comical situations, it can also lead to heated disputes.

“A lot of people are here for a workout. They expect to show up, get in their swimming and get out. If there’s an argument, or lanes aren’t available, people tend to get upset about it,” he said.

“I wish people actually would be more humorous about it and laugh it off. It would make my job a lot easier.”

Morri Stewart, a trainer at the Athletic Club of Bend and Energize Fitness, demonstrates the correct way to perform some of the classic strengthening exercises.

Doing these with the proper form helps prevent injury and provide the maximum benefit. This exercise can be done individually or you can try all nine, which are running every other week in The Bulletin through June 3.

Rather than doing sit-ups, which have the potential for back injury and often strain the hip flexors, Stewart recommends this exercise to tone the lower part of the

The many benefits of walking

By Lenny Bernstein The Washington Post

You learned when you were barely a year old, so chances are you’re pretty good at it by now. Put in 30 minutes a day and your body will thank you; 60 minutes and your doctor will gush.

Yes, I’m talking about walking, still one of the easiest, most accessible and least expensive forms of exercise in a world of Aqua Zumba, Kangoo jumps and aerial fitness classes. Most people can do it.

The benefits are enormous. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, physical activity — which, for adults, includes 150 minutes of brisk walking a week — reduces the risk of dying from coronary heart disease and of developing colon cancer and diabetes. It helps control weight, develop muscle and reduce body fat.

Walking and other forms of exercise can help lower blood pressure and maintain healthy bones, muscles and joints.

So why aren’t you out walking?

primary abdominal muscle.

How to do it: Lie on the floor and tilt the pelvis slightly to cause the lower back to go flush with the floor. Lift legs up so they are above head and slightly bent (1). Pull belly button to the spine as if you are zipping up tight pants. Lower legs slightly until you feel a tightness in the abdomen. Alternately press heels toward wall for 10 repetitions (2).
