Possible reverse stock split OK’d; recent jump in stock price questioned

Directors of Cascade Bancorp, the Bend-based parent company of the Bank of the Cascades, heard from a number of skeptical shareholders at the company’s annual meeting Monday evening at the Bend Golf and Country Club.

Sha reholders also overwhelmingly Inside approved three • Tracking initiatives share prices, enabling the Page A4 compa ny’s board to authorize a reverse stock split, which could boost the company’s stock price and keep it from being delisted by Nasdaq.

A reverse stock split generally inflates the prices of a company’s stock by exchanging a number of shares for a single share. For example, in a 1-for-10 reverse stock split, 10 shares would be exchanged for one share.

But what seemed most pressing on every shareholder’s mind was why the company’s stock jumped more than 90 percent in trading last week, from an opening price of 73 cents on Thursday to Friday’s close at $1.39.

Company president and CEO Patricia Moss told the audience of roughly 150 people that the company directors and employees are wondering why themselves.

“The very first question I heard tonight was ‘What’s happening with the stock,’ and I think one shareholder got it right when he said ‘There are more buyers than sellers,’” Moss said. “That’s as much as we know, too.”

EUREKA, Mont. — Hundreds of adopted children, most of them Russian, have come here to northwest Montana to live and perhaps find healing grace with the horses and cows and rolling fields on Joyce Sterkel’s ranch. Some want to return to the families that adopted them, despite their troubles.

Others, like Vanya Klusyk, have seen far too much of what the world can dish out.

Vanya, 17, suffers from fetal alcohol syndrome, which affects his reasoning ability, his

It could be that the brain gets too hot.

“There were bigger boys, 18 and 19, and I was too small,” he said in a quiet voice, standing in the bright sun outside the ranch’s school on a recent morning. Vanya, who turns 18 this summer, wants to stay on after graduation, working with other wounded children, and Sterkel has said he can.

SALEM — The drama around the bankruptcy and hoped-for rescue of the city-subsidized aircraft-maker Epic Air of Bend may not be over, as the company’s failure appears to be the subject of an FBI probe.

Earlier this month, the remains of Epic were purchased by a collaboration between a Chinese-government-owned aircraft company and a group of former Epic customers that aims to continue manufacturing kitbuilt aircraft in Bend.

Now, the customer group, called LT Builders Group, is trying to sort out property claims against the former company. It’s also hoping to get access to Epic’s files, which have been seized by the FBI, according to the customer group’s Daryl Ingalsbe.

“When the FBI seizes files, they pretty much don’t give them back,” said Ingalsbe, adding that he’s been in touch with the agency about accessing the seized files. “What we’re going to do is go to the FBI in Bend and see which (documents) we need and pay to have them copied.”

He said he and another leader of LT Builders Group, Doug King, have been interviewed by an FBI agent. Ingalsbe said that if crimes were committed, he hopes the perpetrators are brought to justice.

“We think that people that steal from other people ought to be prosecuted,” he said.

Rick Schrameck, Epic’s former CEO, did not respond to voicemails and a text message requesting comment. In a brief telephone interview earlier this month, he declined to comment on Epic and hung up on a reporter.

Two students enter the Ranch for Kids in Eureka, Mont. While much of the attention from a recent Russian adoption incident has focused on the parents and governments, many Russian adoptees themselves have found peace at the Montana ranch.

WASHINGTON — Kevin McLaughlin had been saying it for years: The Securities and Exchange Commission, the nation’s guardian of stock markets, botched a potential investigation into opaque financial dealings that cost small investors millions of dollars.

Now an internal investigation has vindicated some of his claims.

“If you’re a guy sitting out here in Des Moines like me, you want to invest in accounting systems you understand,” said McLaughlin, who filed 17 complaints with the SEC about the telecom company Metromedia International Group from 2005 to 2007 before it took any action. “I thought I had cops on the beat who could warn me about what’s going on.”

Meat prices seen to rise on demand, less supply

By Whitney McFerron Bloomberg News

CHICAGO — U.S. meat prices may rise to records this summer after farmers reduced hog and cattle herds to the smallest sizes in decades, the result of surging feed costs linked to demands for more ethanol.

Wholesale pork jumped as much as 25 percent this month to 90.68 cents a pound last week, the highest since August 2008, U.S. Department of Agriculture data show. Beef climbed 22 percent this year to $1.6896 a pound on April 23, the most expensive since July 2008. Chicken’s gain in March was the most in 20 months.

Demand for pork chops, steaks and chicken breasts is rising as the economy improves, backyard barbecues resume and China and Russia allow more U.S. imports. Domestic supplies may

drop to a 13-year low because of culls to stem losses caused by corn prices that doubled after former President George W. Bush set targets to increase ethanol use.

“Ethanol-induced prices in meat are just now getting to the marketplace,” said Steve Meyer, the president of Paragon Economics, a meat industry consultant in Des Moines, Iowa.

“Consumers are going to see the highest prices they’ve ever paid in meat and poultry because of the decisions made to make corn into ethanol.”

Hog futures have almost doubled from a low in August to 85.175 cents a pound on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange on April 23. The price may reach $1 by June, said Tom Cawthorne, director of hog marketing at broker R.J. O’Brien & Associates in Chicago. CME cattle jumped 14

percent in the past year.

Retail prices may hit records in the next 90 days as demand peaks during summer grilling season, said John Nalivka, a former USDA economist and the president of meat consultant Sterling Marketing Inc. in Vale, Ore. The previous records were in 2008 for pork at $3.026 a pound in September, based on monthly averages tracked by the USDA since 1970, and for beef at $4.526 a pound in August. Chicken’s peak was $1.857 a pound in May 2009.

More expensive pork and beef may revive food inflation that dropped last year for the first time since 1961. Meat prices tracked by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization are up 5 percent this year, even as food costs fell 5.8 percent.

Food groups oppose BPA ban in pending food-safety bill The food industry and major business groups, including the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, are threatening to withdraw support for a long-pending bill to improve food safety, saying they are upset by a proposed amendment that would ban bisphenol-A, a controversial chemical, from food and beverage containers.

The bill is the Senate version of legislation passed overwhelmingly by the House last year. It is designed to give the Food and Drug Administration vast new authority over food production and place greater responsibility on manufacturers and farmers to produce food free from contamination. It had broad bipartisan support and backing from the White House, and it was expected to come to the Senate floor before the Memorial Day recess.

But in a letter to Sens. Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, and Mike Enzi, R-Wyo., the chairman and

ranking minority member on the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pension Committee, the business groups said last week that they oppose an amendment by Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., that would ban bisphenol-A, or BPA, from food and beverage containers.

“We will not support food safety legislation that bans or phases out BPA from any food and beverage container,” said Scott Faber, vice president for federal affairs for the Grocery Manufacturers Association, which represents food companies and retailers.

BPA is used in thousands of consumer goods, including CDs, dental sealants, and credit card and ATM receipts, but health advocates say they are most concerned about BPA in plastic food containers, bottles and the epoxy linings of metal cans because it can leach into food and beverages.

Cremation gaining as a less costly funeral choice

Los Angeles Times

By Gregory Karp

The next time you see a hotel manager striding across the lobby with furrowed brow, look again. He may not be worrying about the guy in 415, the group in the banquet room, or even the recession that has driven room rates to their lowest levels in years.

Instead, he might be thinking about the likes of Carlos Hernandez of Los Angeles, who has decided he likes vacation rentals better than hotels. Or Robert Bell, a retired airline pilot in Long Beach, Calif., who has been won over by cruises.

“I guess I’ve had my fill of hotel rooms,” said Bell, 73, who’s planning another cruise this fall.

Amid all the distress wrought by the recession, this is also a moment of rare opportunity for consumers confident enough to take vacations. They can take advantage of depressed hotel rates, which are still lower than last year even in the midst of the spring vacation season. Or, like Hernandez and Bell, they can look beyond hotels.

And if they do, will they ever look back?

“We’re in the midst of a structural change,” said Henry Harteveldt, a vice president and travel industry analyst for Cambridge, Mass.-based Forrester Research.

“The consumer is not going to go back to thinking, ‘The only place I can sleep tonight is a hotel.’”

Industry experts cite many factors in the 18-month hotel slump, beginning with unemployment rates, a collapse in the number of business-group bookings, and generally depressed business travel, which is key to the profitability of many hotels.

The (Allentown, Pa.) Morning Call

What’s changed Given that, some say Harteveldt is overstating the effect of vacation alternatives on the hotel business. But experts do acknowledge the increasing clout and deep price-cutting of the cruise industry, which now has room for more overnight guests than all of the hotels in Manhattan and San Francisco combined.

And travelers say the Internet has made rental homes, apartments, condos, bed-and-breakfasts and time-share units easier to research, made home-exchange matches easier, and made spare bedrooms and couches easier to wangle — perhaps from friends and family, perhaps from strangers found on websites such as couchsurfing.org or airbnb.com.

The cumulative growth of these scattered alternatives is impossible to measure precisely — many couch-surfers, after all, are sleeping for free. But given the attention these alternatives have been gaining, Harteveldt said, “if I were the president of the American Hotel and Lodging

Houses and automobiles are the biggest one-time purchases most consumers make, but funerals are often No. 3. That’s why, during these economic hard times, cremation is gaining in popularity.

A typical funeral costs roughly $7,300, without cemetery plot and gravestone, while the typical cremation with memorial service and urn costs about $1,700.

Of course, dollars alone won’t dictate what arrangements you make for yourself or a loved one.

But cost has become the No. 1 reason for choosing cremation, according to a five-year study

by Wirthlin Worldwide. In 1985, 15 percent of the deceased were cremated. Today, it’s about 36 percent.

“People are simply choosing cremation because it is a significantly lower-cost alternative,” said John W. Ross, Cremation Association of North America executive director.

New York Times News Service file photo

Travelers say the Internet has opened up options to hotel rooms like this one, easing the effort one has to put forth to research potential rental homes, apartments, condos, bed-and-breakfasts and time-share units.

“We’re in the midst of a structural change. The consumer is not going to go back to thinking, ‘The only place I can sleep tonight is a hotel.’”

— Henry Harteveldt, travel analyst Association, I’d shudder.”

No, says Joseph McInerney, president and chief executive of that Washington-based association, he’s not shuddering.

He doesn’t see this as a gamechanging moment. But he does see a crowded marketplace.

“There are so many new ships out there, and so many new distribution channels online, and more condominiums in the rental pools,” McInerney said.

In January, hotel occupancy nationwide sank to 45.1 percent, the lowest figure for that month in the 23 years that industry analyst Smith Travel Research, or STR, has been gathering numbers.

Though occupancy has started to increase since then, room rates nationwide were still dropping as recently as February.

In February 2008, STR statistics show, the average San Francisco hotel room cost $170.40, the average Manhattan room $254.95. In February 2010, the San Francisco room was $135.13, the Manhattan room $199.65.

Jan Freitag, vice president of global development at STR, said he expects hotel rates nationwide to keep falling for a few more months before leveling off. By the second half of this year, he said, hotel rates will begin climbing again.

But the lingering recession and expanding Internet have opened many leisure travelers to hotel

alternatives.

From the start of 2000 until the end of 2009, the North American cruise industry floated 118 new ships, pushing its capacity to more than 285,000 passengers.

Cruise converts Though prices have edged upward in recent months, Caribbean and Mexican Riviera cruises are still offered for as little as $70 per person per day, meals and entertainment included — a number that catches the eye, even if you’re a cruise skeptic.

Bell, the retired airline pilot, used to count himself as one of those. Then in 2008, some friends talked him into trying his first cruise. He and his companion, Diane Callie, joined them on a seven-day Mexican Riviera itinerary, then signed on for a 10-day eastern Caribbean cruise last year. This year, maybe the St. Lawrence River in Canada.

“The nice thing about a cruise is you can go from place to place and you don’t have to pack and unpack each time you go,” Bell said.

Ada Brown, owner of Seaside Travel in Long Beach, said she’s noted many such conversions.

While many hotel executives accept 45 percent vacancy rates because they’re fearful of damaging their brands with price-slashing, the cruise lines “do whatever

is necessary to fill those ships,” she said. Perhaps as a result, “the cruise market is replacing hotels to some degree.”

Meanwhile, on land, vacation rentals have been getting more attention, too, in part because the Web is soothing travelers’ apprehensions.

For decades, the trouble with renting a home, condo or apartment was that travelers couldn’t be sure what they would find.

Now, though vacation rentals still come nowhere near the consistency of a hotel brand, the advent of detailed Internet listings — and guest reviews — has eased many vacationers’ qualms.

Indeed, a 2009 study by research firm PhoCusWright Inc. estimated the national homerental market to be $24.3 billion yearly, about one-fifth the size of the U.S. lodging industry’s annual room revenue.

One key player is Vacation Rental by Owner, founded in 1995 to match travelers online with homeowners willing to rent out residences. It’s now part of HomeAway, an Austin, Texasbased company whose worldwide listings include more than 80,000 residences in the U.S. In February, HomeAway announced its ambitions by bankrolling a “Hotel Hell” Super Bowl commercial in which Chevy Chase and Beverly D’Angelo reprised their film roles as hapless travelers Clark and Ellen Griswold.

In recent months, Expedia’s popular Internet travel-search site TripAdvisor has launched flipkey.com, a site where homeowners worldwide can pay to have their rental listed and rated by guests.

Q: A:

Can I still have a traditional viewing and funeral?

Yes. In fact, a memorial is advisable to help with the grieving process, Ross said. You can also have an open-casket viewing, which involves renting a casket. That might cost $400 to $900.

Q: A:

Is an urn expensive?

It can be. Typical cost is about $300, but the range is from less than $100 to thousands. By contrast, a typical casket would cost $2,255, according to the National Funeral Directors Association. Keep in mind, a bigger person will need a bigger urn.

Most any container, piece of pottery or even a cookie jar will do.

Q: A:

Why is cremation cheaper?

Besides the casket, transporting the body is expensive. Recovering and returning a body can be complex and costly, especially across hundreds or thousands of miles. However, cremated remains weigh 5 to 7 pounds and can be carried on a commercial airline.

Transportation to and from a memorial service also is less expensive. There’s no need to rent a hearse, for example.

Q: A:

How do I choose a funeral home or crematory?

Family tradition, word of mouth and referrals from friends and clergy are good ways. If you’ll deal with a crematory directly, you can search CremationAssociation.org.

Much of the headache of funeral arrangements can be avoided by simply making your wishes known to loved ones. Put your funeral preferences in writing. This does not mean prepaying, an idea many experts advise against.

T S High court to enter fight over violent video games

By Robert Barnes The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — Fresh from deciding one major free-speech challenge last week, the Supreme Court said Monday that it will take up another: whether states may forbid the sale of violent video games to minors.

California says the court’s 1968 decision that states may restrict the sale of sexually explicit materials to minors should be extended to the violent images in video games such as Grand Theft Auto. Other states have passed

similar laws, but all have been shot down by federal courts that say the Supreme Court has never authorized such an expansion.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit said the same thing about California’s law. The state “is asking us to boldly go where no court has gone before,” Judge Consuelo Callahan wrote for a unanimous three-member panel. “We decline the state’s entreaty” to “redefine the concept of obscenity under the First Amendment,” it added.

That the Supreme Court will

take on the task — its first look at the First Amendment protections afforded computer and video games — came as something of a surprise after last week’s action. The court voted 8-1 to strike down a federal law that outlawed the sale of videos depicting acts of illegal animal cruelty, saying it was unprepared to carve out another area of speech from First Amendment protection.

California’s case raises the additional issue of how far legislation may go to protect minors from the harm its says results

from exposure to extremely violent video games.

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger praised the court for accepting Schwarzenegger vs. Entertainment Merchants Association, which will be argued during the court term that begins in October.

“We have a responsibility to our kids and our communities to protect against the effects of games that depict ultra-violent actions, just as we already do with movies,” Schwarzenegger said.

Future pope tried to get more complete abuse case inquiry

By Katrin Bennhold New York Times News Service

VIENNA — As Pope Benedict XVI has come under scrutiny for his handling of sexual abuse cases, both his supporters and his critics have paid fresh attention to the way he responded to a sexual abuse scandal in Austria in the 1990s, one of the most damaging to confront the church in Europe.

Defenders of Benedict cite his role in dealing with Cardinal Hans Hermann Groer of Vienna as evidence that he moved assertively, if quietly, against abusers. They note that Groer left office six months after accusations of his molesting boys first appeared in the Austrian news media in 1995. The future pope, they say, favored a full canonical investigation, only to be blocked by other officials in the Vatican.

A detailed look at the rise and fall of the clergyman, who died in 2003, and the involvement of Benedict, a Bavarian theologian with many connections to German-speaking Austria, paints a

more complex picture.

Benedict, then Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, had the ear of Pope John Paul II and was able to block a favored candidate for Archbishop of Vienna, clearing the way for Groer to assume the post in 1986, say senior church officials and priests with knowledge of the process. His critics question how this influence failed him nine years later in seeking a fuller investigation.

Benedict’s ambiguous role has made the Groer case a kind of Rorschach test of the future pope’s treatment of sexual abuse during his long stewardship of the Congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith, the Vatican’s powerful doctrinal body.

Unlike John Paul, his predecessor, Benedict has as pope apologized and met with sexual abuse victims. But while he often, as a cardinal, used his clout to enforce doctrine and sideline clergy members whose views diverged from his own, he seemed less willing at that time to aggressively pursue sexual abusers.

Oil continues to pour into gulf If remote subs don’t work, other fixes will take time, BP says

By Richard Fausset Los Angeles Times

ATLANTA, Ga. — Work crews continued their attempts Monday to stanch the 1,000 barrel-a-day oil spill that is gushing beneath the deep waters off the Louisiana coast, as communities along the Gulf of Mexico braced for the possibility of polluted beaches and fisheries that are crucial to the region’s economy.

Throughout the day, technicians maneuvered remote-controlled submarines around the leaking well left by the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig, which sunk Thursday after an explosion and fire. Their goal was to seal off the well by manually activating a 450-ton mechanism called a blowout preventer.

As of Monday afternoon, they had not succeeded, in part due

Company: Mine clear of gases before blast

The Associated Press

CHARLESTON, W.Va. — Air samples did not show high levels of explosive gases just before an explosion in a West Virginia coal mine that killed 29 workers, and what caused the disaster remains unknown, the mine’s owner said Monday.

Massey Energy Co. board director Stanley Suboleski said the samples were taken by foremen as part of a shiftchange exam at the Upper Big Branch mine, just “tens of minutes” before the blast.

Massey spokesman Jeff Gillenwater later said he could not be more specific about the time. The examination also showed that air flow in the underground mine was fine, Suboleski said.

“All the indicators are that at the start of the shift, everything was OK,” said Suboleski, a mining engineer.

Suboleski, two other Massey board directors and Chief Executive Don Blankenship spoke at a company news conference Monday to address several issues related to the explosion, the nation’s worst coal mining disaster in 40 years.

“This has left us humbled and hurt, and searching for answers,” Blankenship said.

PHOENIX — The furor over Arizona’s new law cracking down on illegal immigrants grew Monday as opponents used refried beans to smear swastikas on the state Capitol, civil rights leaders demanded a boycott of the state, and the Obama administration weighed a possible legal challenge.

Activists are planning a challenge of their own, hoping to block the law from taking effect by arguing that it encroaches on the federal government’s authority to regulate immigration and violates people’s rights by giving police too much power.

The measure — set to take effect in late July or early August — would make it a crime under state law to be in the U.S. illegally. It directs state and local police to question people about their immigration status if there is reason to suspect they are illegal.

“If you look or sound foreign, you are going to be subjected to never-ending requests for police to confirm your identity and to confirm your citizenship,” said Alessandra Soler Meetze, executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union of Arizona, which is exploring legal action.

The White House would not rule out the possibility that the administration would take legal action against Arizona. President Barack Obama, who warned last week that the measure could lead to police abuses, asked the Justice Department to complete a review of the law’s implications before deciding how to proceed.

the submarines prove ineffective.

The company has filed permits with the federal government to drill new relief wells that could intersect with the original well and stop the leaking.

Construction has also begun on a domelike collection device that could be positioned over the leak to capture the oil, then send it through pipes to a barge on the surface.

But oil company officials said that both of these solutions would take several weeks to be realized.

The news conference was held a day after President Barack Obama, Vice President Joe Biden and Gov. Joe Manchin led a memorial for the fallen miners. Two other miners were injured in the blast.

The U.S. Mine Safety and Health Administration has issued the mine eight citations for violating preshift examination rules in 2010. Suboleski told reporters that 60 percent of the violations in the last 16 months were deemed “nonserious or nonsubstantial” by inspectors, and that the overall number was comparable to those at similar Appalachian coalfield operations.

Suboleski noted the “inordinate” amount of MSHA orders last year alleging the most serious kinds of violations.

Massey assigned two full-time employees to the mine in response, he said, and the agency issued 80 percent fewer such orders in the seven months before the blast.

While adding that he was not alleging they had made the mine less safe, Suboleski also cited how MSHA ordered changes to the ventilation system that Massey’s engineers initially opposed.

These changes made the system more complicated and reduced its air flow, he said.

Iraqi turmoil

The Associated Press

The Associated Press

JERUSALEM — Israel’s prime minister has effectively frozen new Jewish construction in east Jerusalem, municipal officials said Monday, reflecting the need to mend a serious rift with the U.S. and get Mideast peace talks back on track.

The move comes despite Benjamin Netanyahu’s repeated assertion he would never halt construction in east Jerusalem and risks angering hard-liners in his government.

One lawmaker from Netanyahu’s Likud Party warned the governing coalition could collapse over the issue.

Still, the de facto freeze appeared to offer the promise of reviving peace efforts derailed after Israel announced plans for a major Jewish housing development during a visit by Vice President Joe Biden last month.

That set off the worst diplomatic dispute between the U.S. and Israel in decades — and prompted the Palestinians to call off a new round of U.S.brokered peace talks.

The quiet halting of east Jerusalem housing approvals coincides with signs that those talks are now about to start — and could help explain recent U.S. statements stressing America’s close ties to Israel.

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas signaled Monday he was ready to start indirect talks with Israel after weeks of hesitation.

BAGHDAD — An Iraqi court threw the nation’s disputed election into deeper disarray Monday by disqualifying 52 candidates, including one winner, in a legal ruling that cast doubt on the slim lead of a Sunni-backed alliance over the prime minister’s political coalition.

The decision by the threejudge election court intensified political turmoil and dealt a new setback to efforts to form a new government in Iraq nearly two months after the vote for a new 325-member parliament, which must select the next prime minister.

U.S. officials had hoped the elections would boost efforts to reconcile Iraq’s divided ethnic and religious groups as American military forces prepare to withdraw combat forces by September, with the rest to follow by the end of next year. But the maneuvering following the inconclusive vote instead has created a giant political vacuum and fears of new violence.

It also threatened to anger anew Sunnis, who had thrown their support behind secular candidate Ayad Allawi’s bloc to give it a two-seat lead.

Sudan leader re-elected Attack in Yemen misses British envoy despite war crimes charges New York Times News Service

The Associated Press KHARTOUM, Sudan — Sudan’s president won another term in office Monday with a comfortable majority in elections marred by boycotts and fraud allegations, becoming the first head-of-state to be re-elected while facing an international arrest warrant for war crimes.

Omar al-Bashir’s victory was widely expected after his most credible challengers pulled out of the race to protest alleged fraud.

Exercise Continued from A1 So companies sell devices, like cooling vests to wear before exercise, or even portable cold baths for prerace immersion. Researchers have tested methods like having athletes swim for an hour in cold water or sit in a cold room or stand in a cold shower.

No matter what the method, companies and researchers report a precooling effect.

The problem is that none of the methods are easy, cheap and practical. But now, a New Zealand endurance athlete and exercise researcher says he has found a method that is. All you have to do is drink an ice slurry, also known as a slushy, before exercising. In a new study, he reports that young male recreational athletes who drank a syrup-flavored ice slurry just before running on a treadmill in a hot room could keep going for an average of 50 minutes before they had to stop. When they drank only syrup-flavored cold water, they could run for an average of 40 minutes.

There are limitations — the running test was indoors, so there was no cooling effect from breezes on the skin. In those artificial circumstances, precooling might have had more dramatic effects than it would outdoors.

And what athletes really want is to go faster in a race, not run until they drop. But the study tested endurance, not performance, which is typical of such research.

Still, exercise specialists say, the effect was pronounced. “It’s a really interesting study, well done and carefully thought out,” said Craig Crandell, an exercise physiologist at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, who studies the effects of exercising in the heat.

The effect was short-lived, according to the senior investigator, Paul Laursen, at the New Zealand Academy of Sport in Auckland and a competitor who has raced in 13 Ironman triathlons (a 2.4mile swim followed by a 112-mile bike race followed by a marathondistance 26.2-mile run). It would not even begin to last long enough to run a marathon or do a century (100-mile) bike ride, for example.

But it would be perfect for a sport like tennis or for a 5- or 10-kilometer race or for team sports like soccer or football, and it might give endurance athletes in longer events a boost by letting them beat the heat, to a certain extent, for the first 50 minutes or so.

Laursen said he thought of using ice slurries because they can lower brain temperature in swine more effectively than cold water.

The swine studies were testing methods to cool the body before surgery. Laursen reasoned that slurries might also effectively cool the body before exercise.

The advantage, he said, is that they are even colder than ice — 30 degrees Fahrenheit — an effect that occurs when sugary water is swirled with crushed ice.

“It’s a neat idea,” said Scott Montain, an exercise researcher at the U.S. Army Research Institute of Environmental Medicine in Natick, Mass. “I wouldn’t have guessed slurries would have that much of an effect.”

It’s not so clear why ice slurries or any other method work, though. As Laursen notes in a review article, “The mechanisms underlying the performance effects associated with precooling are not yet completely understood.” One possibility, which Laursen said might have explained the ice slurry results, was that slurries lowered body temperature before the young men ran, letting them run for a longer time before their bodies became critically hot.

Montain is not sure. The men did not get that hot, he said. At exhaustion, the mean body temperature of those who drank the slurry and those who drank cold water was about 101 degrees.

He said the limiting factor might have been the men’s heart rates. In both groups, exhaus-

It was unlikely to put to rest questions about his standing around the globe and among his opponents or ease Sudan’s isolation. Al-Bashir cannot travel freely because he risks being arrested to face charges before the Haguebased International Criminal Court for war crimes committed in Sudan’s western Darfur region.

Sudan’s first multiparty presidential elections in 24 years were a key part of a 2005 deal that ended a 21-year civil war.

H E A LT H N E W S Half of U.S. adults have heart risks LOS ANGELES — Nearly half of all adult Americans have high cholesterol, high blood pressure or diabetes, all conditions that increase the risk of cardiovascular disease, researchers from the national Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Monday.

One in eight Americans has at least two of the conditions and one in 33 has all three, sharply increasing their risk. Of those with at least one condition, 15 percent have not been diagnosed, according to the report released online.

“The number that really surprises me is the penetration of these conditions into the U.S. population,” said Dr. Clyde Yancy of Baylor University Medical Center, president of the American Heart Association. “When that number is nearly 50 percent, that’s a huge wake-up call.”

It means there are a large number of people “who think they are healthy ... but are working under a terrible misconception,” he said.

High chocolate intake linked to depression One need only look at the recent introduction of chocolate Cheerios to fully grasp Americans’ fondness for the pulp from cacao beans. Savoring chocolate is normal.

But, researchers said Monday, over-indulging in it could be a marker for depression.

Researchers at UC San Diego and UC Davis examined chocolate consumption and other dietary intake patterns among 931 men and women who were not using antidepressants. The participants were also given a depression screening test.

Those who screened positive for possible depression consumed an average of 8.4 servings of chocolate — defined as 1 ounce of chocolate candy — per month. That compared with 5.4 servings per month among people who were not depressed.

tion occurred when heart rates reached about 185 beats per minute. Those who drank the slurry hit that heart rate 10 minutes later than those who drank cold water. Montain says the heart beats faster and faster, trying to get blood to the skin, for cooling, and to the muscles for exercising, until it just can’t keep up.

“The heart can’t send blood everywhere without the blood pressure falling,” Montain said. “At some point, you can’t maintain your blood pressure.” But, Montain said, what mattered in the end was that the simple solution of drinking an ice slurry worked.

He might even try drinking a one himself if he’s stuck racing in the heat, something he tries to avoid.

“I try to race when the weather is good,” Montain said. “I live in Massachusetts, so I can choose.”

Crandall, in Dallas, might seem the ideal person to use a slurry before a run. But he’s less interested.

“I just run for enjoyment,” he said. And if he drank a slurry with its sugary syrup, he said, “all the calories I burned off would be added back.” Laursen, though, is drinking slurries. He gets ice cream headaches when he drinks them — everyone does, he said — but he puts up with the pain. It’s worth it.

When he has a slurry before a grueling bout of exercise in the heat, he said, “I feel so much better.”

The British ambassador in Yemen survived an attack Monday morning by a lone suicide bomber who detonated his explosive belt as the ambassador’s armored convoy was passing.

Bank Continued from A1 In a question and answer session with shareholders after her prepared remarks, Moss said the company is not buying back its stock, but she would not comment on whether or not the board has received purchase offers because of regulatory prohibitions on “forward looking statements,” or public remarks about possible future performance.

Moss said the company is working aggressively to raise $85 million in new capital from institutional investors in order to take advantage of a standing offer from two investors who have pledged $65 million if the company can successfully complete the $85 million capital raise. The pledge expires May 31.

Should the company not be able to raise the additional capital, Moss said the board has a “Plan B” but would not elaborate.

In response to a shareholder question, Moss said the board would also consider delisting the company’s stock in order to save expenses but qualified her answer by saying the board has a duty to consider all options available for preserving share value.

A number of shareholders also had questions about the company’s delisting notice from Nasdaq. According to a December directive from the exchange, the company’s stock will be delisted if it fails to comply with Nasdaq rules that require the stock to close at or above $1 for 10 consecutive days before June 15.

Shares of the company closed Monday at $1.27, or the third straight day at or above $1.

Should the stock not be able to keep its momentum, Moss said the board would consider authorizing the reverse stock split approved by shareholders

SEC Continued from A1 McLaughlin isn’t the only one whose complaints to the SEC fell on deaf ears. The SEC was criticized for missing the multibillion-dollar Ponzi scheme of Bernard Madoff despite numerous opportunities to stop him, as well as overlooking an alleged scheme by now-indicted financier Allen Stanford.

Recent revelations about Goldman Sachs, Moody’s Investors Service and others have prompted the SEC, under new leadership, to improve its handling of complaints and to file high-profile suits against Goldman Sachs, among others.

For McLaughlin, however, that comes too late.

In the 1990s, McLaughlin, an Iowa stockbroker, invested in Metromedia, a media company in the former Soviet Union that owned television and radio stations, wireless networks and other media in the Republic of Georgia and northwestern Russia. He thought that because Metromedia was traded on a U.S. exchange and had to adhere to its accounting principles, it was a safe investment.

He was wrong, and when things fell apart, he appealed to the regulator he’d trusted. Yet only after McLaughlin enlisted several lawmakers, including both his state’s senators, Republican Charles Grassley and Democrat Tom Harkin, did the SEC begin to look into the Metromedia case, ultimately mobilizing its internal watchdog, David Kotz, to investigate.

Kotz concluded that the SEC had “mishandled and mismanaged” McLaughlin’s complaints,

The ambassador, Timothy Torlot, was unhurt, said Chantel Mortimer, a spokeswoman for the British Embassy. There did not appear to be anyone wounded aside from the bomber himself, according to witnesses at the

scene in San’a, the capital.

No one had claimed credit for the attack by late Monday, but senior Yemeni officials said it bore the hallmarks of al-Qaida.

The terrorist network’s regional branch, which has its base in Ye-

men, has claimed numerous assaults on embassies in San’a, including an ambitious suicide car bomb attack on the well fortified American Embassy in September 2008 that left 16 people dead, including six attackers.

in order to could keep the stock at or above $1.

The three different reverse stock split scenarios approved Monday by shareholders were a 1-for-3 split, a 1-for-5 split and a 1-for-7 split. Moss said the board will decide which scenario to implement should it choose to authorize a reverse stock split.

Moss, in her remarks, described 2009 as “one of the most challenging years in the history of the company.”

But she ticked off a number of measures undertaken by the company to improve its financial health in spite of the down economy, including a substantial reduction of loans for commercial, residential and land development, attracting and retaining customer deposits, the suspension of 401(k) contributions for company employees and improved real estate valuations and sales activity in the bank’s two biggest markets, Bend and Boise.

“We know we have credit challenges, and we know what they are, and we have contained them,” Moss said.

and hadn’t looked into the matter seriously until it was too late.

McLaughlin had charged that the firm’s financial reporting was delinquent and erroneous, that its assets were sold at belowmarket prices, and that Metromedia management had engaged in “self-dealing,” or arranging deals for its own benefit, not for shareholders, Kotz’s report found.

“His statements were completely unfounded,” responded Mark Hauf, the CEO of Metromedia from 2003 to 2009. “The man cost us a huge amount of money with his foolishness … poured down the hole of that man’s boundless ego and paranoia.”

McLaughlin, who’d recommended that several of his clients invest in the company in the ’90s, when the stock was trading at $10 to $25 per share, was upset at the opaque way the company operated. Metromedia last reported full-year numbers in 2003, and issued its last quarterly statement in 2004.

In April 2007, the SEC issued a warning saying that it was giving Metromedia 15 days to make all its filings current, but the commission didn’t follow up, and the company was sold that August, for $1.80 a share.

In addition to complaining to the SEC, McLaughlin has sued to get Metromedia’s records, but he’s spent almost as much fighting the company as he invested in it. Though he probably has recouped half his cash investment, he said he’d spent more than $250,000 on legal bills, travel and expenses.

Nevertheless, SEC Inspector General Kotz said, “it’s good that (McLaughlin did bring it to our attention), because there were issues there that needed to

A number of shareholders had questions for Moss she couldn’t answer, citing the Securities and Exchange Commission’s prohibition on forward-looking statements. However, one query met with robust applause from the audience questioned the company’s compensation policy for its directors.

Responding to the question, Chairman Gary Hoffman said the board is working four times more than in years past to put the company back on a sound financial footing and that incentives needed to match the workload if the company was to retain experienced and dedicated directors.

Hoffman also said bank regulations, including more than 2,000 pages of new ones issued in 2009, add to the hurdles faced by the company’s directors.

In addition to approving the reverse stock split scenarios, shareholders Monday also approved the re-election of seven company directors. Hoffman, Moss, Jerol Andres, Henry Hewitt, Judith Johansen, Ryan Patrick and Thomas Wells were

The SEC said it was installing a new system to centralize the complaints process and was creating an office of market intelligence.

all re-elected by overwhelming margins.

Two board members, Clarence Jones and James Petersen, retired and were not replaced. In an emotional ceremony early in the meeting, Moss named Petersen, a director since 1986, as a director emeritus of the company.

Afterward, longtime shareholders Ned and Charlene Dempsey said they felt better about the company after hearing Moss and other directors. Both said they are big believers in community banks and feel that Bank of the Cascades, like many other community banks, was hard hit by the recession but not because of risky lending.

“To me, community banks are a critical part of the financial fabric of a community,” said Ned Dempsey. “Businesses got hammered in 2009, and community banks are no exception.”

Thai king speaks on TV but avoids talk of unrest

Ranch Continued from A1 An international adoption can be a journey into the waters of the unknown, and sometimes the rocks and shoals — for the parents, the child or both — are too much to negotiate. Sterkel’s remote ranch, five miles from the Canadian border in a homesteader’s valley that got electricity only around 1960, is for some of those families the end of the line.

In the weeks since a woman from Tennessee put her daughter’s 7-year-old adopted son, alone, on a plane back to Russia, much of the furor has focused on parents, governments and adoption agencies, and what they do right — or do not do right — by adopted children.

Missing from the debate have been the voices and perspectives of the children themselves and the wrenching life that many face as a legacy of fetal alcohol, institutionalization, poverty and the sometimes socially corrosive survival skills they were required to hone in their early years.

“Lying, stealing and hoarding food,” Alexi, a smiling, upbeat 13year-old girl, said when asked why her adoptive parents had sent her here. Alexi, whose family did not want her last name used, sat on the edge of a pool table in the main ranch house, swinging her legs and reading a book, “The Purpose Driven Life” by Rick Warren.

She spent the first two years of her life in a Russian orphanage, she said, and does not remember anything about it. She just knows she has always had a hard time trusting adults, including her adoptive parents.

Here at the Ranch for Kids, a nonprofit established seven years ago and focused on adopted children from Russia — where Sterkel’s family came from a century ago, and where she worked as a midwife in the early 1990s before adopting three Russian children herself — background stories of hard luck or horror are as common as skinned knees.

Sterkel, 63, said those stories gave her great sympathy for parents who had reached a point of desperation. Adoptees with inner lives, and brains, twisted by experiences that began even before birth can be mercurial — sunny one minute, explosively violent the next, with no ability to make moral judgments about what they have done. They can also be emotionally distant, self-destructive or all of the above.

Alcohol’s effects In Russia, vodka’s curse has been woven through history since the early czars. One widely cited study concluded that Russia’s rate of fetal alcohol syndrome was eight times that of the rest of the world.

Exposure in utero to alcohol can cause irreversible brain damage, with visible manifestations that include smaller eyes and a smaller upper lip with the lip’s groove flattened. Even those with lesser exposure can have an interior rewiring of their brain chemistry, according to extensive medical research.

Isolation in infancy — in an understaffed orphanage or with a drunken parent — compounds those problems. A paper published last year in The American Journal of Psychiatry about preschool-age children from Roma-

Epic Continued from A1 Schrameck’s bankruptcy lawyer, Tom Hooper, did not respond to requests for comment made by e-mail and voicemail.

Epic came to Bend in 2004 and vowed to create 400 jobs. In return, it received $140,000 in direct city funding as well as other help: in return for a promise of at least 214 jobs by June of 2010, the city obtained nearly $1.3 million in loan and grant money from the state to make infrastructure improvements at Bend Municipal Airport.

But in court documents, former customers as well as company insiders alleged that the firm suffered from questionable business practices.

Last July, Richard Lucibella, of Florida, head of a firm called Blue Sky Avgroup LLC, filed suit against Epic, claiming the firm had committed fraud in collecting money for an aircraft engine it had not delivered. It said Epic and its two parent firms, including Aircraft Investor Resources of Las Vegas, had “commingled and misappropriated” funds.

In September, King filed a motion in federal court that accused Epic’s former ownership of “insider transactions and self-dealing in a way designed to bilk customers out of millions of dollars.”

ABOVE: Students sit in the sun after school at Ranch for Kids in Eureka, Mont. LEFT: Joyce Sterkel, owner of The Ranch for Kids, leads a student on horseback. Sterkel, 63, who worked in Russia in the early 1990s and adopted three Russian children, said she was swayed to help other Russian adoptees by stories she heard of frequent abuse, some starting in the womb.

nia found that more than half who had lived in an orphanage had psychiatric disorders, from attention deficit to post-traumatic stress. Boys tended to have more symptoms than girls, the study said.

That well-documented path of devastation makes Sterkel impatient with remarks like the one made by President Dmitri A. Medvedev of Russia, who called the return of the boy from Tennessee a “monstrous deed.”

“What he experienced was monstrous,” she said, gesturing toward Vanya. “Sending a kid back was not.”

Sterkel can be just as tough in talking about some of her own clients, like the adoptive parents of a Russian boy who was recently brought to the ranch with early signs of fetal alcohol troubles. The parents had agreed to pay $3,500 a month for the boy’s keep, but they knew, they said, that whatever happened, they just could not take him back.

“That’s when it’s sad — they haven’t exhausted all the possibilities,” Sterkel said.

Ranch for Kids now has 30 children, ages 5 to 17, some of whom stay for a month or two, some for years. Critics say the ranch, and places like it that focus on experience as therapy — exposure to nature, animals and rules of ranch life — are islands of unreality that do not fundamentally address a child’s problems.

“All it does is give them a hiatus,” said Ronald S. Federici, a clinical neuropsychologist in Virginia who mainly treats foreign adoptees.

Federici has tracked international adoptions since 1992 and

Last month, a similar filing was made by a company owned by the government of the former Soviet republic of Georgia, known as TAM Air, which had entered into a partnership with Epic. It stated that more than $5 million it invested in Epic seemed to have been “converted … for other purposes.”

Asked about the FBI’s involvement, Lucibella said it was his firm that went to the federal agency in the first place. He complimented federal agents for not becoming obstacles to rescuing the firm from bankruptcy. “They didn’t take any (Epic) computers; they just cloned them,” he said. “I think they walk on water in this case.”

Asked about the FBI’s probe, Beth Anne Steele, a spokeswoman for the agency, said, “There’s nothing I can say at this point. …

I can’t even confirm for you that there is an investigation. Obviously, you’ve gotten other people to say that, but I can’t say that.”

Generally speaking, she said financial cases can be time-consuming. “A case like this takes months, potentially,” she said.

“I’m not confirming that we have a case open, but if we were to have a case open, it’s not the type of case that would happen overnight.”

Although Ingalsbe and King hope to soon employ as many as 50 people to manufacture the kitbuilt Epic LT model, the city still

estimates that about 4,000 from Eastern Europe alone have foundered — with children being sent into state care or to places like the Ranch for Kids or back to their home countries. He said that while he respected the impulse behind the ranch, permanent improvement could not happen without a spine of rigorous medical and therapeutic treatment.

“It’s like a vacation at the beach — we’re always better when at the beach,” he said.

Sterkel and her staff do not fully disagree. The rhythms of the ranch — afternoons on horseback, two teachers in a room of eight children, cow-milking — are not how life back home really works.

But she believes that strict routines and responsibilities, like cleaning one’s room and close contact with nature and animals, can make a difference in upended lives.

“We can’t fix the fundamental damage,” she said. “Generally, our parents have reached a place where they need to restore sanity.”

Back to their families About 70 percent of the roughly 300 children who have come here, Sterkel said, do go back to their adoptive families — though she admits she often loses track after that. Of the remaining 30 percent, the younger ones are often readopted, while adolescents typically go into the federal Job Corps program. And now there is even a second-generation to work with — a 10-month-old girl named Lilia.

Lilia’s mother was adopted from Russia and came through the program herself a few years

is owed about $100,000 in back rent by the bankrupt firm.

Not only that, but if the new firm does not exceed expectations, the city will have to refund as much as $137,000 that it received from the state to create 214 jobs at Epic. Only 159 jobs were created at the firm’s peak, and those are now gone.

Bend City Manager Eric King said the city had no inkling of problems at the firm, let alone alleged mismanagement.

“Right up until they declared bankruptcy, we were getting messages from them that they were wanting to expand,” he said.

“I think if we would have known, we would have tried to intervene in some way.”

City Councilor Tom Greene, who has tracked the bankruptcy case, did not hold office when the city helped Epic. But he says the company’s fate should give pause to future city councils.

“I think it’s just going to make us more cautious as we move forward, and people come in and want to have backing from the city,” he said. “I think we’re going to have to scrutinize to a higher degree than anybody’s ever had to do in the past.”

ago — fiercely unmanageable and claiming, in full embrace of the Goth lifestyle, to be a vampire. The young woman’s life did not much get better: She ended up on methamphetamine, tattooed, pierced and pregnant at age 19.

But she came back to the ranch last year, Sterkel said, for the final months of her pregnancy, and then agreed to let the infant stay on in the Sterkel family’s care. Sterkel, now the baby’s legal guardian, said she assumed Lilia had prenatal exposure to alcohol, so she is trying everything she has learned over the years — especially physical contact, usually with the baby on her hip or lap — as an effort at early intervention therapy.

And Vanya now has a big

brother figure, a former resident as a child, Jenya Davidson, 21, who has fetal alcohol syndrome, too, and came originally for help, only to return years later to work as a handyman and to help attend to the younger children. The two young men share an apartment over Sterkel’s garage.

Davidson, with a nearly constant smile, said northwest Montana was now home. He dreams of starting his own landscaping business.

BANGKOK — Thailand’s ailing king spoke on national television on Monday night, his first remarks since his nation descended into a political crisis, but he made no reference to the conflict that threatens to spin out of control.

Addressing newly appointed judges in the hospital where he has been confined for more than seven months, King Bhumibol Adulyadej, 82, urged them to set an example by performing their duties well, a standard homily on such occasions.

This is a moment at which the king might, in the past, have stepped in to calm stormy waters. In recent months, as the conflict has grown more intractable, people have spoken with yearning for the father figure who could heal a wounded nation.

Though he did not play that role on Monday, his vision of uprightness, duty and honor could be taken as an indirect comment on the current crisis.

Protesters seeking to bring down the government have occupied parts of Bangkok for more than six weeks in an increasingly tense standoff with the military and with an emerging group of counterprotesters.

B U S I N E SS IN BRIEF Wal-Mart gender case cleared for trial In a closely watched case, a sharply divided federal appeals court on Monday ruled 6-5 that a sex discrimination lawsuit against Wal-Mart can proceed as a class action for more than 1 million women. The lawsuit is the biggest employment discrimination case in the nation’s history. After a decade of pretrial maneuvering, the decision by the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals paves the way for a trial to begin for the plaintiffs, who are seeking billions of dollars from Wal-Mart, the world’s largest retailer.

The lawsuit, brought in 2001, accuses the retailer of systematically paying women less than men, giving them smaller raises and offering women fewer opportunities for promotion. The plaintiffs stressed that while 65 percent of Wal-Mart’s hourly employees were women, only 33 percent of company’s managers were.

While many Bend-area business owners stick around Central Oregon for the quality of life, it doesn’t mean the owners are happy with the business environment here — or feel wanted in Bend.

About 64 percent of 138 business owners who responded to a March online survey by the Bend Chamber of Commerce said “no” when asked if they thought Bend was friendly to businesses.

Those owners don’t necessarily think Bend’s city government is unfriendly, said chamber Executive Director Tim Casey, but think the city is indifferent about whether any given business succeeds or fails.

“They don’t feel like the city is going out of their way to take care of businesses,” Casey said.

The chamber only reported the rate at which people responded to certain answers on each of its questions, without providing raw data.

Some businesses noted in the survey that the attitude from the city government has improved lately, but they want to see friendliness toward businesses demonstrated in a more measurable way. Close to 67 percent of the respondents said they don’t think Bend provides enough incentives for existing businesses to expand, or to encourage new companies to come to the area.

NEW YORK — Verizon Wireless retreated Monday from plans to offer service for Google’s Nexus One phone.

Until Monday morning, Google’s website showed that the Nexus One would be available through Verizon in spring of 2010. The site now points Verizon users seeking phones that run Google’s Android operating system to HTC’s Incredible model.

Without a Verizon partnership, Google loses access to the carrier’s more than 90 million customers, potentially blocking the phone from gaining more widespread popularity and hurting its competition with Apple’s iPhone. The breakdown of the deal signals that Verizon may view Google as a competitor rather than a partner when it comes to Nexus One sales, said analyst Colin Gillis at BGC Partners in New York.

More companies plan to boost payrolls as sales strengthen and the outlook for economic growth brightens, a quarterly survey of economists showed.

The percentage of businesses planning on increasing staff in the next six months exceeded the share projecting more firings by 21 points, up from 6 points in January, according to a survey by the National Association for Business Economics. Demand rose for the third consecutive quarter, and more respondents estimated the economy will grow faster than 3 percent this year.

“The U.S. recovery from the Great Recession continues, with business conditions improving,” William Strauss, a senior economist at the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago who analyzed the results, said in a statement. Rising demand indicates “a better outlook for hiring,” he said.

WASHINGTON — The legal storm buffeting Goldman Sachs intensified Monday as Senate investigators claimed the Wall Street giant had devised not one but a series of complex deals to profit from the collapse of the home mortgage market.

The claims suggested for the first time that the inquiries

into Goldman were stretching beyond the sole mortgage deal singled out by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

SEC accusations that Goldman defrauded investors in that single transaction, Abacus 2007-AC1, have thrust the bank into a legal whirlwind.

The latest claims came on the eve of what is expected to be a contentious Senate hearing today, at which Goldman

Sachs executives plan to defend their actions.

The stage for that hearing was set with a flurry of new documents from the panel, the Permanent Senate Subcommittee on Investigations. That was preceded by a press briefing in Washington, where the accusations against Goldman have transformed the politics of financial reform.

Offshore wind projects, such as those off the coast of Denmark, are twice as expensive as their onshore siblings, but offshore has advantages: the wind is stronger and steadier, and the energy can be closer to consumers.

Offshore wind farm could have big impact

By Tom Zeller New York Times News Service

For the last decade, the backers of a huge wind power project off the coast of Cape Cod have navigated through stormy community meetings, hidden regulatory snags and verbal cannon blasts from the Kennedy family and a pair of Indian tribes.

Any day now, they will find out whether it was all for naught.

The Obama administration, which last week signaled its intention to proceed with other offshore wind projects, is about to decide whether to deep-six the

Cape Wind proposal or provide a friendly gale that could carry it to completion.

If approved, the project would most likely be the nation’s first offshore wind farm. And in either case, the ruling by Interior Secretary Ken Salazar would have implications from Long Island to Lake Erie. At least half a dozen offshore wind projects that could provide electricity for hundreds of thousands of customers have already been proposed in the shallow waters off the East Coast and the Great Lakes.

Success of Boeing — and its CEO — Homebuyer credit hinges on uncertain future of 787 seen as successful

Most support financial reform, poll shows WASHINGTON — About two-thirds of Americans support stricter regulations on the way banks and other financial institutions conduct their business, according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll.

Majorities also back two main components of legislation congressional Democrats plan to bring to a vote in the Senate this week: greater federal oversight of consumer loans and a company-paid fund that would cover the costs of dismantling failed firms that put the broader economy at risk.

A third pillar of the reform effort draws a more even split: 43 percent support federal regulation of the derivatives market; 41 percent are opposed. Nearly one in five — 17 percent — express no opinion on this complicated topic.

— The Washington Post

Boeing and Airbus constantly jockey for orders from the world’s 100 major global airlines, New York-based aerospace consultant Wolfgang Demisch says. Winning can come down to price, shrinking pretax profit margins below 10 percent and forcing endless restructurings.

“McNerney is trying to do something that’s really hard to do,” says Charles Smith, chief investment officer at Pittsburghbased Fort Pitt Capital Group Inc., which owned 236,000 shares in March.

The 787 will determine McNerney’s place in history, Smith says. “If two years from now he’s producing eight or ten 787s a month, we’ll say he was very capable,” he says. “Until then, the jury’s out.”

With the first 787s due by yearend, investors want to be sure McNerney can deliver steady profits and keep the stock price — like the Dreamliner — flying.

It would provide new oversight of hedge funds, and impose tough rules on the trading of derivatives, the financial instruments that were at the center of the 2008 economic crisis.

It would restructure the federal system of banking regulation, moving many smaller banks out from under the Federal Reserve; and providing shareholders of public companies with greater say in electing directors and an advisory role on executive pay.

The Republicans said there were numerous problems in the Democrats’ legislation — from the omission of provisions dealing with the mortgage giants, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, to disputes over the specific language. They said the bill would give too much power to the new consumer protection bureau.

Republican aides on the banking committee said they were working to finalize their own version of a financial regulatory bill that would stand in contrast to the Democrats’ proposal. But they said it was unclear when, or if, they would release it.

Nelson last week supported the new derivatives rules as a member of the Agriculture Committee, which shares jurisdiction over derivatives because it oversees the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. That bill would have exempted the holders of existing derivatives contracts from posting collateral or margin, requirements, as would be required of new contracts.

cessive regulation.

“We shouldn’t put in place a regulatory regime that overly reacts and, as a result, significantly dampens our capacity to have the most vibrant capital and credit markets in the world,” Gregg said.

After meeting briefly on Monday, Dodd and Sen. Richard Shelby of Alabama, the senior Republican on the banking committee, reported no new progress.

The bill, developed over months of talks between senators in both parties, would touch every aspect of the financial system.

It would authorize the government to shut down a financial institution deemed to pose a threat to stability of the system, using a $50 billion fund financed by big banks to help the failed company meet financial commitments as it winds down.

The bill would also establish a consumer protection agency designed to end predatory lending practices and require that con-

ren Buffett and based in Omaha.

At the last minute, the Senate majority leader, Harry Reid of Nevada, switched his vote to side with the Republicans — a strategic maneuver that lets him call for a repeat vote, which is expected today. Two Republicans did not vote: Sens. Christopher Bond of Missouri and Robert Bennett of Utah.

With the exception of Nelson’s opposition, the result was expected: Republicans had warned for more than a week that they would block floor debate of the legislation.

In the days ahead, the fight in the Senate seems likely to hinge on a question raised forcefully in recent days by McConnell: Does the legislation still contain loopholes that could allow future taxpayer-financed bailouts of failed banks and other collapsed financial firms?

Democrats say the bill is written specifically to prevent such bailouts, and have accused Republicans of blatantly misrepresenting the measure. But Republicans insist government bailouts are still possible. They pointed to language, for instance, in a chapter on liquidating failed banks that establishes a “strong presumption” of losses for creditors and shareholders. Some Republicans say those losses should be mandatory.

Sen. Judd Gregg, R-N.H., said Republicans wanted to prevent a collapse like the one in 2008 but that Democrats were in danger of strangling the economy with ex-

Stumbling

Boeing’s forte. The Dreamliner, a two-engine jet that will travel 8,500 nautical miles while burning 20 percent less fuel than competitors, won’t earn back Boeing’s original investment of about $15 billion until 2018 or later, predicts Heidi Wood, an analyst at Morgan Stanley in New York.

Last year, Boeing’s aircraft orders tumbled 79 percent to 142 amid the worst travel slump since World War II. Profit plummeted 51 percent to $1.3 billion. The company swallowed $1.8 billion in reduced income because of an International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers strike in 2008. And it lost its lead contractor role when the Pentagon canceled the $159 billion Future Combat Systems program, hurting the defense business that delivered 49.1 percent of Boeing’s $68.3 billion in 2009 revenue.

On April 21, Boeing said first-quarter net income fell 15 percent to $519 million and revenue dropped 7.8 percent to $15.2 billion.

The 787 has added to the misery. Not only was the Dreamliner the first airliner designed largely with composite materials instead of metals; Boeing also farmed out entire pieces for suppliers to

Continued from B1 Sensing political momentum at a time of deep public anger at Wall Street, Democratic leaders said they would keep the regulatory bill on the floor — and delay the rest of their busy legislative agenda — to ratchet up the pressure on the Republicans.

Combined with signs of economic recovery in many parts of the country, Democrats said they believed the fight over financial regulation could help turn the tide of anti-incumbent sentiment that has them bracing for substantial losses in November. “We are as vulnerable as we are today in the waning days of April 2010 as we were in the fall of 2008,” said Sen. Christopher Dodd, D-Conn. and chairman of the banking committee, who is the primary sponsor of the legislation. “Nothing has changed, except, of course, jobs have been lost, homes have gone into foreclosure, retirement incomes have evaporated, housing values have declined.”

Republicans, too, see major advantage in their stance, with the party’s Senate leader, Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, using the issue to bolster his overarching political argument this year: that the Democrats’ one-party rule in Washington is detrimental.

McConnell, in a floor speech on Monday, rattled off a list of major legislation that he said had not benefited Americans in the ways Democrats had promised, including the economic stimulus measures and the health care legislation.

“The days of taking the Democrats’ word for it are over,” McConnell said.

The vote on Monday was 57-41, as Democrats fell short of the 60 votes needed to cut off a filibuster of a motion to proceed.

One Democrat, Sen. Ben Nelson of Nebraska, sided with Republicans apparently out of concern over a provision related to tightening the rules on derivatives trading that was of particular concern to Berkshire Hathaway, the investment company controlled by War-

Boeing shares jumped 51 percent to $75.13 in the six months through April 23. The increase, almost four times that of the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index, lifted the company’s price-earnings ratio to 39.7, greater than 88 percent of the index’s members.

Since July 2005 — when McNerney took the reins as chairman and CEO after two ethics scandals had rocked the world’s biggest aerospace and defense company, the shares have returned 26 percent, double the 13 percent gain for the S&P 500.

Boeing is the only stock with enough liquidity for large-cap portfolio managers looking for aerospace growth, says David Rowlett, a Baltimore-based analyst at T. Rowe Price Group.

“They can generate a lot of cash if they get the 787 right,” says Rowlett, whose firm owned 7.9 million shares in December.

PERENNIALS & ANNUALS

As Boeing Chief Executive Officer Jim McNerney held court in Airbus SAS’s backyard at the Paris Air Show last June, he made a promise: He told Wall Street analysts he’d be throwing a party in two weeks — after the 787 Dreamliner’s first test flight.

The plane, which is so radical that its fuselage is formed by wrapping composite-plastic tape around a mold and then baking it, was already two years late for its trial. The delays had crushed Boeing’s credibility and helped drive shares down to $51.44 as the show opened from a record $107.83 in 2007.

The celebration wasn’t to be.

Back in the United States, as McNerney was driving home from Waukegan Regional Airport in Illinois, he got a call from Scott Carson, who was then president of Boeing’s commercial aircraft division. Engineers had found separations in layers of plastic where the 787 fuselage meets the wing.

The only option was another delay. News of the postponed flight sent shares tumbling a further 6.5 percent on June 23.

Boeing reinforced the wing joint with titanium, and the Dreamliner flew its much-anticipated three-hour test over Washington state on Dec. 15, almost six months later.

Seated in a Boeing conference room 36 floors above the Chicago River on a blustery March afternoon, McNerney, 60, recalls the June delay.

“It was a tough day, but you’ve got to be levelheaded around here,” he says. “If I get as excited as I want to be about all the cool stuff that happens and as disappointed as I want to feel when stuff doesn’t go well, I’d be a Raggedy Ann doll,” he says.

T F For athletes, practice that’s all in the thumbs

By Joe Brescia

“They have my skills right, my shot and my speed. They have my facial features, even how I wear my equipment.”

New York Times News Service

Video games like Nintendo’s “Wii Fit” or Electronics Arts’ “Madden NFL” series aren’t just for armchair athletes.

Professional athletes in a range of sports say that video games improve their physical and mental skills, in part because the quality of the sports simulations by companies like Electronic Arts and Take-Two Interactive have gotten so good.

With Major League Soccer’s season now under way, Conor Chinn, a forward with the New York Red Bulls, spends one hour on the day of each real game in front of his Microsoft Xbox 360 playing “FIFA Soccer” by Electronic Arts. Chinn is one of those who believe that video games help his performance.

“It gets your soccer brain started that day,” said Chinn, who began the regimen in college. Each virtual player mimics “the way a player moves, the way they shoot, the way they pass the ball” in real life.

“You really get to see and experience the players’ style of play,” he said. “After I face a guy on the field, you can see how very similar the movements and actions are in the video game.”

Besides preparing for onthe-field competitions, some athletes use the games to stay sharp while recovering from injuries. Coaches and players say the games can even help teammates bond, as they often play together. But they caution that video games are no substitute for regular training and can even be detrimental in some cases.

A big reason that athletes find video games so appealing is their

Conor Chinn, a professional soccer player for the Red Bulls, plays “FIFA Soccer” in his hotel room in Secaucus, N.J. He believes the game helps his performance on the field. increasing level of realism.

For “FIFA Soccer” and their other sports games, including the “Madden NFL,” “NBA Live” and “NHL” series, the graphics wizards at Electronic Arts reproduce just about every aspect of real athletes.

They start with the basics, like height, weight and facial features. Then the producers use a motion capture system to create the movements of the athletes. In a studio, professional athletes or former college players are outfitted in spandex neoprene suits, and light sensors are positioned throughout their torso on every

joint. Players perform a variety of shots and skill moves, and the captured body movements become the basis for those of the players in the game. Adjustments to mimic specific athletes’ individual skills are then made by a design team with input from scouts, former players and coaches.

It all makes for a lifelike Chinn kicking the ball into the net as time runs out for a virtual victory.

Other sports video game companies, such as 2K Sports, a division of Take-Two, use similar methods.

“Our developers pour over hundreds of hours, watching footage of players and paying extremely close attention to all their movements, physical nuances, and a variety of other granular detail,” said Bryan Lam, a spokesman for 2K Sports, whose games include “NBA 2K,” “MLB 2K” and “NHL 2K.” Rob Schremp of the New York Islanders in the National Hockey League, said EA copied him “right on the button” in its “NHL 10” game, even though he is known for his especially tricky moves on the ice.

“They have my skills right, my shot and my speed,” he said.

“They have my facial features, even how I wear my equipment.”

And now that Schremp has been sidelined by a knee injury, the simulation is helping him stay focused on the game while he recovers.

While some athletes might consider video games an unnecessary distraction just before a real competition, running through simulations may be the best way to prepare for certain sports, such as auto racing.

Joey Logano, a NASCAR driver, says he gets ready for his races by going online to iRacing. com, a simulation site. As any fan can do, he gets behind the steering wheel console of his Xbox, puts on his real game face — without the helmet — and pays attention.

Since NASCAR has banned drivers from test-driving on the actual tracks, Logano and other pros use iRacing.com to learn new tracks or refresh their memories about courses they have raced on before.

“The graphics are really close to the real thing,” Logano said.

“You get to experience any turn or bump.”

Police raid the home of blogger who leaked new iPhone

By John Letzing MarketWatch

SAN FRANCISCO — Police have seized computers and other equipment from the home of a blogger who published reports about Apple Inc.’s forthcoming, next-generation iPhone using a lost version of the device.

Gizmodo.com published a report Monday saying that California’s Rapid Enforcement Allied Computer Team entered blogger Jason Chen’s home on Friday, “seizing four computers and two servers.”

Chen last week published a report on Gizmodo providing photos and details of a next-generation iPhone mistakenly left at a Redwood City, Calif., bar by an Apple employee.

Gizmodo’s parent, Gawker Media LLC, later publicly acknowledged paying $5,000 to an unnamed individual who provided them with the phone.

The means by which Gizmodo obtained the device has stirred speculation that it may have violated a California law covering the appropriation of stolen property for personal benefit.

Gawker’s legal representative, Gaby Darbyshire, had previously advised Chen to not allow police into his home, as “a search warrant may not be validly issued to confiscate the property of a journalist,” according to documents posted on Gizmodo.

Water

A:

Some people notice it immediately. Some people notice it within a week to two weeks.

Continued from B1 Experts may debate, but a steady stream of people who believe in it visited the store Monday morning to fill their water jugs.

For the Morningstaurs, ionized water made them feel better and created a new business.

Marissa Morningstaur, 57, said it helped relieve her fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue, and for Jonn Morningstaur, 66, it brought relief from arthritis pain.

When they bought an ionizing machine, they noticed that most of the marketing literature consisted of clippings from the Internet mass-produced on copy machines.

So they brought together their respective backgrounds — his in publishing; hers in nutrition and communications — and carved out a niche creating marketing materials for the water ionizing industry. “(It was) the result of the fluidity of two entrepreneurs,” Jonn Morningstaur said.

The publishing portion has become the dominant part of their business. About six months ago, they moved their business from their home to the office on Fourth Street, about a block south of Bend’s main post office.

It’s large enough to provide a 30-person meeting space, which they allow local nonprofit health or wellness organizations to use.

Marissa Morningstaur agreed to answer a few questions from The Bulletin about The Cascades Living Water Store.

Q: A:

Q: A:

How much does a water ionizer cost?

They start at around $1,000 and can go up to $4,000.

Q: A:

That sounds expensive.

Do you get questions about the expense?

Most people are able to finance it. Most people can see if they are buying bottled water, they can recover their expenses (from the cost of bottled water). It just makes everything (that your body does) work better. People will look at it and say, “You know, it just makes sense.”

Q:

How do you answer those who might suggest this is quackery or really doesn’t work?

There are some people who say this is quackery. (They say) you can’t ionize water. That’s true. You can’t ionize water. It’s actually the minerals that are (getting) the electrical charge. (On a scientific basis, the evidence is very strong). It’s just not very well known here (in the U.S.).

A:

Q: A:

You don’t suggest ionized water cures diseases?

We are not part of the medical model. We are part of the wellness model, just like eating right, just like exercising.

(However,) in the U.S., in the medical area, there are more open-minded doctors who are taking a look at this.

Q: A:

So how did the publishing part develop, and how has it gone?

There wasn’t literature about it, (ionized water).

It was so popular with other distributors that we sold 80,000 of these 16-page magazines the first year.

What is ionized water?

Ionized water is when water goes through an electrolysis chamber, gaining an electrical charge, a negative electrical charge. (When) it comes back together, it’s in a smaller cluster of molecules, making it more absorbable.

The difference is if you drink four cups of regular water you feel sloshy. If you drink four cups of ionized water, you don’t feel like you’re full, with a bag of water in your stomach.

The negative electrical charge only lasts about 24 hours, which is why we don’t sell the water. We’re a water ionizer store.

Q: A:

Survey

THE BULLETIN • Tuesday, April 27, 2010 B5

Mill District, said about the permitting process. “It shouldn’t be that way.”

Eric Strobel, the business development manager of Economic Development for Central Oregon, said he has seen the city make a concerted effort to improve the permitting process, by adding things like pre-permitting meetings for businesses to help streamline everything. He said some concerns expressed in the survey might be from experiences people had two or three years ago, adding that the situation has improved for some companies.

“The direction of the city has changed in the past 1½ years,” he said. “I think there’s a real push for better customer service.”

How the city operated in the past might have played a role in this survey, said Eric King, Bend’s city manager. He said the city has improved the planning department to have a one-stop permitting center, and is working to streamline the complicated development code.

King said the City Council is also actively willing to reconsider policies that people might think don’t work. He said he also has established an ombudsman through his office, for business owners to bring complaints to.

“If you’ve got an issue, please let us know,” King said.

Continued from B1 And 65 percent of the 138 chamber members who responded said system development charges are limiting to job growth, while almost 55 percent faulted the city’s permitting and planning process.

The highest number of people — 72 percent — marked personal income taxes as being detrimental to new jobs.

Casey said the chamber can’t do much to impact income taxes, other than advocate they remain stagnant. He said he plans to analyze this survey with city of Bend officials, however, to find tangible goals to aid businesses in Bend.

“What we’re trying to do is identify what can we actually have an impact on,” Casey said. “Our goal is not to take the survey and demonstrate what a terrible job the city has done. That’s certainly not the case.”

Expansion issues The city’s planning and permitting process did take the brunt of the criticism in the survey. Not only did many respondents blame it for hindering job growth, but they also portrayed it as hindering expansion in general.

About 107 owners said they had struggled to expand within the past 12 months, with 73 percent of them blaming the planning and permitting process in part for their trouble. Other problems, such as land, loan and commercial space availability, were marked less frequently by survey takers.

Casey said many members say breaks on fees like building, permitting and system development charges would be beneficial — but those fees must be paid by someone, and the survey isn’t suggesting that the city consider getting rid of them, he said. He said many people feel the city’s permitting process is arduous, long and expensive.

“It seems like you’re always in line for something,” William Smith, who developed the Old

Creating a discourse

business owners would target more of their frustration toward the local government, Casey said. However, he said he still thinks the survey will help officials understand what is actually happening in the community.

Jeff Cossey, owner of StreamiT, a software development company in Bend, said he thinks local businesses were left by the wayside during the housing boom, while the city focused its attention on real estate instead of developing infrastructure for businesses. He said it’s hard for him to find building space that meets the technical specifications — high-speed fiber optic networks — necessary to operate his business.

Had the city worked to bring more fiber optic providers to Bend during the boom, when it had the money to do so, hightech firms like his would be much more prone to relocate to Bend.

He came to Central Oregon and stays here for the quality of life.

“I still choose to be here,” Cossey said. “We still love Bend.

It’s worth fighting for.”

King said he wants the city to use time now — while building activity is down — to proactively look at how to better make infrastructure improvements. He said the City Council will discuss forming an infrastructure committee at its May 5 meeting.

“When activity picks back up, we’re in a much better spot than we were” for building infrastructure, King said.

About 10 percent of the chamber’s membership responded to the online survey, Casey said, adding that he hopes a higher percentage will respond to future questionnaires. He said the survey is the first that asks about the friendliness of the business environment in the city, and was sent out as a way for the chamber to be proactive.

“The Bend chamber is more than just a wine and cheese chamber,” he said.

What Casey said he wants the survey to do is bring business owners’ concerns to light, creating a discourse with the city. In May, he said he and the chamber staff may send out another survey, and work with city officials like King on unearthing detailed information from business owners.

“We’re going to really dig down deep into this to see what kind of solutions we can come up with to give them some kind of out-ofthe-box thinking,” Casey said.

Because this survey was taken during a recession, and the city already “has a big target on their back,” it could mean that some

Goldman did not have a substantial, consistent short position in the mortgage market.

But at the press briefing in Washington, Carl Levin, the Democrat of Michigan who heads the Senate committee, insisted that Goldman had bet against its clients repeatedly. He held up a binder the size of two breadboxes that he said contained copies of e-mail messages and other documents that showed Goldman had put its own interests first.

Levin’s investigative staff re-

leased a summary of those documents. On a page titled “The Goldman Sachs Conveyor Belt,” the subcommittee described five other transactions beyond the Abacus investment.

One, called Hudson Mezzanine, was put together in the fall of 2006 expressly as a way to create more short positions for Goldman, the subcommittee claims. The $2 billion deal was one of the first for which Goldman sales staff began to face dubious clients, according to former Goldman employees.

Do you have a press here?

We partner with Moonlight Printing & Mailing, (in Bend). We like to partner with local people.

CORIL (Central Oregon Resources for Independent Living) just added CD and DVD duplication (services). Their prices were fantastic. We love to work with local people, and we really like to work with CORIL.

How soon do people notice a difference after drinking the ionized water?

Goldman Continued from B1 In the midst of this storm, Lloyd Blankfein, Goldman’s chairman and chief executive, plans to sound a conciliatory note today.

In a statement prepared for the hearing and released on Monday, Blankfein said the news 10 days ago that the SEC had filed a civil fraud suit against Goldman had shaken the bank’s employees.

Blankfein will also testify that

Wind Continued from B1 A thumbs-down on Cape Wind, some developers say, could gut America’s offshore wind industry before it ever really gets started. “It is imperative that Cape Wind gets built — we need the momentum,” said Peter Giller, chief executive of OffshoreMW, an upstart developer with ambitions to build two 700-megawatt projects off the shores of New Jersey and Massachusetts.

Although offshore wind farms are roughly twice as expensive as land-based ones, developers and advocates say offshore projects have several advantages. Sea and lake breezes are typically stronger, steadier and more reliable than wind on land. Offshore turbines can also be located close to the power-hungry populations along the coasts, eliminating the need for new overland transmission lines.

And if the turbines are built far enough from shore, they do not significantly alter the view — a major objection from many local opponents.

Other nations have embraced offshore wind as a major source of renewable energy. In Europe alone, there are currently 830 offshore wind turbines connected to the power grid in nine countries, according to the European Wind Energy Association In the United States, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory has estimated that about 90,000 megawatts of electricity could be extracted from offshore winds in coastal waters less than 100 feet deep, the easiest and most cost-effective depths.

Most of that potential lies in New England, the mid-Atlantic and the Great Lakes.

If the handful of American projects on the drawing board are built as planned, they would produce some 2,500 megawatts, according to the American Wind Energy Association or about as much as two midsize nuclear power plants.

But despite years of efforts, not a single offshore turbine has been built in the United States. Experts say progress has been slowed by a variety of factors, including poor economics, an uncertain regulatory framework and local opposition.

BERLIN — Confidence in Greek assets sank to a new low Monday, as Chancellor Angela Merkel of Germany kept up the pressure on Greece, insisting on tougher austerity measures.

Questions remain about when and how the aid package to Greece of up to 45 billion euros ($60 billion) might be delivered. Fears are also increasing that even with the money promised, Greece will have to restructure its debts, leaving investors booking losses and see the duration of the assets they hold extended.

“Germany wants to help,” Merkel said Monday in Berlin.

But she insisted that any agreement by Germany to lend its share of the package depended on Greece meeting new conditions set out by the International Monetary Fund and the European Union.

Greece has to accept “hard measures” for the three years specified in the IMF program, Merkel said. “When Greece accepts these tough measures not for one year but several, then we have a chance for a stable euro,” she added.

But at the same time, the German finance minister, Wolfgang Schaeuble, said that the stability of the euro was at stake and was preparing to press for quick passage of the bailout in the German parliament.

The German public has opposed any major bailout of Greece, and Merkel has had to be persuaded to support the

idea. Still, after adopting a hard line toward Greece, the German government seems reconciled to the idea of lending Greece about 8 billion euros. That would make it the biggest contributor of the total loan package.

When the idea of a Greek bailout was first floated this year, the assumption had been that an international aid package would buy Greece the time to restructure its economy and pay down its debt — estimated by the European Union at 115 percent of national output.

That confidence has now evaporated as investors focus on long-term obligations, which continue to grow as the cost of refinancing mounts. Investors appear unwilling to wait the months that it would require to see an improvement in Greek budget deficit from the austerity measures being put in place.

Athens officially requested an aid package from its euro-zone partners and the IMF on Friday.

But the yield on 10-year Greek bonds rose again Monday, to 9.5 percent, setting another record

since Greece joined the euro.

The euro also slipped against the dollar and the pound.

The lack of a plan for Greece to leave the euro area, which might help the situation by allowing it to devalue its currency, and the absence of a formal mechanism for the transfer of funds inside the European Union has laid open the structural weakness of the euro zone.

There is added danger if Germany and France delay financial aid: Banks in those countries retain significant holdings of Greek debt, so any default by Athens could have ripple effects on asset markets elsewhere. Yet domestic political wrangling in Germany ahead of an important regional election next month has also led to doubts about how swiftly the aid will be transferred.

I used a built-in pop-up flash on a Canon 20D DSLR camera for this picture from the first-day of the 2005 Cascade Cycling Classic. I used a manual exposure of 1/250th f/9 at 100 ISO and turned the flash down -0.3 using a 24mm lens. Fill-flash helped brighten the shadows, color and stop the action as this racer held a lead to the finish line.

Jefferson, Crook courts to digitize case records

By Erin Golden Just days after thousands of Oregon National Guard soldiers returned home from a ninemonth mission in Iraq, more Central Oregon troops have received word that they’ll be heading to the Middle East.

The Oregon Military Department announced Monday that about 600 members of the Oregon Army National Guard’s 3rd Battalion, 116th Cavalry Brigade will be deployed to Iraq in November with the 116th Cavalry Brigade Combat Team, which is based in Boise, Idaho. The mobilization order involves more than 100 soldiers who currently serve with the Redmond-based Bravo Company, as well as about a dozen soldiers who work out of the Prineville Armory.

Twice a week, students in the Sisters High School band get to school at 6:45 a.m.

They spend the next 45 minutes practicing together, before heading off to class. Later in the day, many practice on their own.

That commitment paid off last week, when a combo of four students from the band took first place in their division for smaller high schools at the Reno Jazz Festival. Later in the festival, the band was selected to play during the final awards ceremony.

Nearly 300 groups from up and down the West Coast competed at the festival, according to a news release from Sisters High School band director Jody Henderson. Middle school through college-level bands from Seattle to San Diego competed at the festival, held at the University of Nevada, Reno Thursday through Saturday.

“Winning the division was a whole different experience, because I’ve never helped to win our division before,” said 15-yearold bass player Trevor Ford, a sophomore.

We realize that we have written in several Well Shoot! articles about “turning your flash off,” but this time we are urging you to turn your flashes on! Flash is used to lighten a scene that is too dark. It can be used to stop action. Flashes can be crafted to lighten certain parts of a photo to help with clarity. Master users of accessory lighting can craft light to look “real,” even when that light doesn’t exist. Gregory Heisler, Annie Leibovitz and Joe McNally are good examples of master lighting technicians.

For direct flash from either a built-in flash or one placed in the camera hot shoe, one of the most common mistakes is being too close to the subject.

The brightness of a flash — and the camera’s ability to operate the flash — requires a bit of room, so keep subjects several feet away. The harsh light from the flash will cause strong shadows, so avoid having anything between the flash and subject, and make sure the subject isn’t throwing a shadow too hard onto the background. Fill-flash is a technique where the flash puts just the amount of light out as the scene already has. This is useful when there is a lot of shadow from the sun, when light under a

visor or cowboy hat is needed. Red-eye reduction is a technical device in cameras that does several flashes before snapping the picture.

Rear-curtain sync is a camera setting that fires the flash as the shutter is closing, giving the result of motion in a picture. Flashes can be controlled to be more powerful, or less powerful. This can be done in a camera setting, or by being closer or further from your subject. Finally, getting the flash off and away from the camera is the best technique. By doing this, the light can be sculpted in particular parts of a picture. This can be done with cords, remote devices and light triggers.

The approximately 13-month deployment, which will include a total of 2,700 soldiers from Oregon, Idaho and Montana, will begin with several weeks of training at Camp Shelby in Hattiesburg, Miss. Oregon Military Department officials said they’ll know more soon about the troops’ mission and where they’ll be stationed in Iraq.

Staff Sgt. Russell Harrison, of Redmond, said about 130 soldiers are part of Bravo Company, including about 70 from Central Oregon.

Fair officials working for better year

By Lauren Dake The Bulletin

Jefferson and Crook County Circuit Courts have been picked to be part of a pilot program that state officials hope will change the way the state’s courts do business.

The Oregon Judicial Department is working to gravitate away from a paper-based system and start digitizing all types of court records. Called Oregon eCourt, state officials said the program will transform the way the court system interacts with citizens. Still in its early stages, five counties have been selected to test the program. The counties, including Crook and Jefferson, will launch the program in the summer of 2011 with civil and small claims cases. Starting this spring, court officials will start scanning current information so it will be available digitally. Criminal cases will not be available digitally as soon.

“When fully implemented it will allow us to better serve the public,” said Phil Lemman, spokesman for Oregon Judicial Department.

People will be able to file documents, pay fines and view court cases online.

For Amy Bonkosky, who is the trial court administrator for both Crook and Jefferson County Circuit Courts, it will mean she no longer has to pile up court files in her car to transfer between Crook and Jefferson counties.

“It has several benefits,” she said. “There will be continuity with our records ... If there were a fire or flood, they are protected, that’s a benefit. They will take up less storage. And more than one person at a time can look at a file.”

Several judges hear cases in both Jefferson and Crook counties.

For direct on-camera flash to brighten dark situations, most camera flashes do a good job when you follow the flash guidelines. Don’t stand too close or too far away from your subject, and the camera flash and its technology will do a good job of making a bright and colorful picture.

I used an on-camera Canon 580 flash, with movable head pointed down, to brighten firefighter Travis Moyer in the shade during the Lake George Fire in 2006.

In this photo, I used an off-camera flash held in my left hand fired by remote as I framed the photo with my right. The slow shutter speed and flash, limited to first-curtain sync with the remote, fired the flash and then recorded the flight of the glow-in-the-dark disc as Shannon Morin caught it. Rear-curtain sync would have showed the red blur and the disc in her hands.

Equipment corner FOR BEGINNERS Follow the camera instructions and practice the red-eye reduction, slow-sync and direct flash techniques. Try fill-flash in bright daylight, and turn the flash compensations up and down to increase or decrease its power.

FOR INTERMEDIATES

units. Use manual settings and learn how light is less or greater based on your distance to the subject. Tilt the flash head to point it in another direction. Try bouncing the light off of a low, white ceiling to light a room more evenly.

Put a clear plastic cup over the flash or use a large envelope as a bounce card to change the quality of light.

FOR ADVANCED Get the flash off and away from the camera. Do this with a cord, remote or using a slave. Use a multiple flash setup, and use color gels on the flashes to light different parts of a picture in different colors. Get comfortable modifying the light and seeing how its quality changes as it is closer or farther away from your subject.

Things are looking up for Deschutes County Fair & Rodeo. Bad weather led to low turnout last year and the economic downturn meant less revenue than expected, so organizers have been working hard to bring in more money from this year’s fair.

The fair makes money from paid admissions and vendors, and sponsorships from businesses and organizations. A major sponsor this year is Les Schwab Tire Center. Sponsors support the fair through monetary donations and in return see their company name displayed at the event and on advertisements.

Sponsors donate anywhere from $150 to $30,000. Vendors pay between $400 and $600 for space at the event.

The Deschutes County Fair struggled with low sponsorship and vendor revenue last year.

Thunderstorms and hot weather also hurt the fair’s attendance.

The fair is celebrating its 91st year in late July, and is showing signs of recovery with revenue from sponsors up by about 25 percent and money from vendors up by about 10 percent.

Last year, the fair’s sponsors gave an estimated $68,850. As of Monday afternoon, the fair had gotten a commitment of about $93,000 from sponsors in the area. The fair’s goal is to surpass the $102,380 raised from sponsors in 2007.

“We need $10,000 more,” said Dan Despotopulos, the director of the fair. “Anything’s possible.”

He said the fair did things differently this year. To help increase revenue, fair organizers went through past records and contacted everyone on the list who had participated as sponsors and vendors.

O Video from bus that struck 5 given to Portland police Investigation continues after 2 killed, 3 injured

By Abby Haight The Associated Press

PORTLAND — A video from a TriMet bus that struck five pedestrians at a downtown intersection, killing two, has been turned over to police investigators, officials said Monday.

Normally the transit agency would conduct a side-by-side investigation, but it has turned everything over to the Portland Police Bureau, said TriMet spokeswoman Mary Fetsch.

“We’ve given them the video,” Fetsch said. “The driver is cooperating. We really want them to have all the information we can give them so they can round out

their investigation.”

While Officials cautioned that it could take days to find out what went wrong shortly before midnight Saturday at a lighted intersection in downtown Portland, the father of one of the survivors told The Oregonian newspaper that the bus turned directly into the pedestrians.

Investigators say the bus had a green light and that the pedestrians had a walk signal.

Detectives have had to interview a large number of witnesses to the incident in a downtown entertainment district bustling with activity.

A candlelight memorial was planned Monday night for Jenee Hammel, 26, of Gresham, and Danielle Sale, 22, of Vancouver, Wash., at the site of the accident.

The group of five friends had just left a comedy club and were crossing the street when they were struck by the bus as it

was turning.

Hammel, Sale and Robert E. Gittings, 22, of Idaho, were pinned beneath the bus. Gittings remained in serious condition Monday at Legacy Emmanuel Medical Center.

Newlyweds Jamie and Ryan Hammel — Jenee Hammel’s brother — received minor injuries.

Jamie Hammel’s father, Mark Caton of Beaverton, told The Oregonian that his daughter said “the bus mowed them over.”

Bus driver Sandi Day, who has worked for the agency since 2007, is on paid administrative leave, and TriMet has offered counseling support for other employees.

Since 1988, TriMet buses have been involved in 32 fatal accidents. The most recent before Saturday was the Sept. 15, 2009, death of a man who fell under the back wheel of a bus 18 days earlier.

Prosecutors ask Reed College to crack down on drugs after 2 students OD The Associated Press PORTLAND — State prosecutors have asked Reed College officials to crack down on illegal drugs after two student heroin deaths in the past two years.

Reed President Colin Diver met with Dwight Holton, U.S. attorney for Oregon, and Multnomah County District Attorney Michael Schrunk last week at the federal courthouse in Portland to discuss college drug problems.

Diver then sent an e-mail to Reed’s 1,300 students warning them police and prosecutors will be watching them closely and want them to shut down any illegal drug use.

Tougher enforcement is set to start at Reed’s end-of-term “Renn Fayre” festival, scheduled

next weekend. The celebration features games of full-contact human chess, ritual burning of senior thesis notes, softball tournaments and fire dancing. Drug use has been part of the festival in the past.

Holton and Schrunk told Diver that undercover Portland police officers will be on patrol during the fair. Uniformed officers will respond immediately to calls.

The prosecutors also reminded Diver that federal funding — including student loans — can be pulled from any school that fails to adequately combat illegal drug activity.

“It was polite, sociable and friendly, but it was definitely a command performance,” Diver said Saturday, two days after

OHSU medical students aid homeless with health needs

By Eric Mortenson The Oregonian

PORTLAND — Medical students will tell you they get so wrapped up in their intense studies that sometimes life outside disappears.

On April 18, in the dim, dripping, chilly spaces of an underground parking lot a couple blocks off Portland’s Burnside Street, life had an appointment.

And dozens of medical, dental, nursing and pharmacy students from Oregon Health & Science University had a reminder: This is what drew you to the profession. This is why you study. This is who needs you.

Nearly 200 uninsured men and women, almost all of them homeless and jobless, showed up for free health screenings in the parking structure beneath O’Bryant Park along Southwest Ninth Avenue and Washington Street. The site was a given: A regular Sunday lunch attracts the homeless and hungry, and it’s close to Old Town, to the boulevards and sidewalks and shelters that harbor them.

The volunteers, rounded up by student organizers from within each of OHSU’s medical training fields, were waiting. At a series of folding tables that doubled as medical stations, they took blood pressure readings and pricked fingers for diabetes checks, examined eyes and ears, treated minor sores, handed out condoms and literature about sexually transmitted diseases, and provided lists of clinics and social service agencies.

One man hadn’t seen a doctor in 15 years. Students and a professional adviser working in a mobile dental clinic yanked 17 bad teeth.

Medical students with six-figure physician salaries in their futures checked scalps for head lice, an exam required to earn free haircuts from stylists who

volunteered their time as well.

Alison Farmer, a registered nurse pursuing a bachelor’s degree at OHSU, knelt on a thin mat on the concrete floor to file toenails and calluses with a whirring, hand-held sander. A cloud of powdery dust billowed near her face as she worked on Michael Worthington’s long, brown nails.

“I’m having a problem with them the last six years,” Worthington explained, resting his right foot on a folding chair as Farmer worked. “It’s a fungus.”

Farmer, who works the surgical floor at Legacy Mount Hood Medical Center, said trimming nails was a joy.

“It really is,” she said. “It’s all patient care and no paperwork.”

And it reinforced, she said, “that everybody has a story.”

Like Antonio Tolman. He warily approached pharmacy student Sierra Binek’s table and agreed to have his blood sugar measured for diabetes risk.

“Yeah, does it make sense?” he said, glancing to the parking structure entrance. “I’m not like ...,” and he extended his arms to indicate obese.

Tolman said his maternal grandmother has diabetes.

“I’m not sure if my mom does or not,” he said. “I haven’t seen her for a while.”

Binek pricked his finger, ran the test and told Tolman his glucose reading was in the safe range. But with his family history, he should exercise and eat properly.

April 18 was the third year OHSU students have provided free health screenings. The event this year coincided with “Cover the Uninsured Week,” a national project of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, a New Jersey philanthropic organization that funds health care programs and grants.

meeting top prosecutors for the first time in his eight-year tenure. “They’ve got some pretty big sticks to hold over our head.”

Holton and Schrunk sent their own e-mail to Reed students Saturday pointing to the increased potency of today’s narcotics.

Drug dealers, they wrote, are increasingly targeting “middle class and wealthier kids.”

It’s difficult to change the culture and many students will contest any crackdowns but “two deaths in the last two years means it’s time for change,” Holton told The Oregonian Saturday.

Samuel Ira Tepper, 22, died of a heroin overdose in March.

Alejandro “Alex” Callery Lluch, 18, died of an overdose in April 2008.

O B Governor names state poet laureate SALEM — Gov. Ted Kulongoski has appointed Paulann Petersen to a two-year term as Oregon’s poet laureate.

Petersen succeeds Lawson Fusao Inada of Medford.

Petersen lives in Portland after spending half her adult life in Klamath Falls. She is a widely published poet with four collections — The Wild Awake (2002), Blood-Silk (2004), A Bride of Narrow Escape (2005) and Kindle (2008).

Eugene police search suit settled EUGENE — The city of Eugene has settled a lawsuit with a woman who said police violated her rights during a search of her home three years ago.

The Register-Guard newspaper reports the city paid $21,250 to Elaine Lewis. The 62-year-old said police used excessive force during the search and violated her rights by hauling her into broad daylight when she was dressed in a revealing nightgown.

The incident began when officers responded to a tip that a possible fight and stabbing occurred at the residence. Police said Lewis hesitated when asked to leave the premises so officers could make sure there were no injured people inside.

A settlement agreement filed in federal court stipulates the payment is not an admission of liability by the city.

Pair indicted in girl’s death PORTLAND — A Multnomah County grand jury has indicted a Gresham couple in the death of 5-year-old girl.

Clackamas deputies rescue stuck deer

ALBANY — An Albany man has been arraigned on a dozen counts of possessing child pornography.

State Attorney General John Kroger said Monday that 43year-old Richard Downard is free on $50,000 bail, but as a condition of his release he can’t access the Internet or have contact with minors.

Downard was indicted last month on charges of encouraging child sexual abuse.

OREGON CITY — Two Clackamas County sheriff’s deputies rescued a deer that got itself wedged on a rocky embankment along the Clackamas River near Riverside Park.

KGW reports the deputies took a jet boat to the spot Sunday and used a pole and lasso to free the young doe from the rocks.

The startled deer jumped into the boat, then into the water and then pranced into the woods.

GOP should back Dudley in primary

P

rimary elections really aren’t that complicated. The process allows each major party to pick its best person, who then faces off against the other party’s best person in November.

Determining the best person is usually simple, too. He (or she) is the candidate with the best chance to win in the fall. If your person doesn’t get elected, none of his unique skills or laudable character traits really matter much, do they?

Which is the purely pragmatic argument for choosing Chris Dudley in the Republican gubernatorial primary. Owing to his lengthy basketball career, Dudley already has the kind of name recognition many other wouldbe office-holders can only envy. And as a former Trail Blazer, he undoubtedly enjoys a level of goodwill extended to few Republican candidates in the Portland metro area, where so many of the state’s voters live.

Fortunately, Dudley isn’t a mere celebrity office-seeker. He’s also a fine candidate. He has a good grasp of the major problems afflicting both Oregon’s government and economy.

For what it’s worth, his views on leading social issues are moderate. He’s described himself as pro-choice and he supports Oregon’s law establishing civil unions for gays and lesbians. But for him — and for most Oregonians, no doubt — this election is about the economy and the ever-escalating costs of providing government services.

Dudley believes the state’s economy will benefit from reductions in several taxes, including those on capital gains. He’d like to ease land use laws that hamper economic development in rural areas. And perhaps more than any other gubernatorial candidate, Dudley emphasizes the economic potential of higher education in Oregon, where education debates too often begin and end with K-12 funding (see Bill Bradbury, Democratic candidate).

Dudley’s concerns about government are well-founded, if not original. The cost of providing services is rising at an unsustainable rate, in part because of the cost of public-sector health and retirement benefits.

Programs like the Business Energy Tax Credit are both expensive and misguided. Dudley argues that the millions of BETC dollars diverted to companies like New Mexico-based Mesilla Valley Transportation would have been better spent on Oregon’s colleges and universities. He’s right, yet the BETC program emerged from this year’s special session without enduring the deep cuts it was due.

Dudley deserves credit, too, for explicitly targeting the Oregon Liquor Control Commission, which, he argues, shouldn’t be in the business of selling booze. He acknowledges that transforming the agency would be somewhat symbolic, given the size of Oregon’s budget. But symbolism matters. “If we can’t change that,” he says of the OLCC, “what can we do?” Not much.

To reduce Dudley’s candidacy entirely to a list of issue positions is to

miss the point, however. Dudley has much in common with primary opponent Allen Alley, a fine candidate in his own right. Even John Kitzhaber, the likely Democratic nominee, believes state employees should pay more for their health benefits.

What makes Dudley so attractive is that he promises to be a certain kind of governor, a kind that Oregon hasn’t had for many years: a leader. Oregon at the moment is a bitterly divided state with a large and powerful public sector, a stagnant private sector and a well-earned reputation for resenting the sort of entrepreneurial person who starts and runs companies, creates jobs and generates bundles of tax revenue. Oregon is a wonderful state, but it needs a new direction.

More than Alley, it seems to us, Dudley has the ability to re-engage Oregonians in the process of government and, with any luck, convince more of them to support policies favorable to the expansion of economic opportunity. The bully pulpit is a powerful tool, and it’s one for which Dudley happens to be well suited.

Meanwhile, nominating Dudley next month will almost certainly set up the most interesting gubernatorial race in many years. His probable opponent, Kitzhaber, couldn’t be more different. If Dudley, as governor, would be Oregon’s leader in chief, Kitzhaber would be its policy expert in chief. While Dudley’s new to the political scene, Kitzhaber offers years of experience, both as a legislator and a governor. While Dudley was a professional athlete, Kitzhaber was an emergency room doctor. If the two have anything in common, other than their interest in the governor’s office, it’s their Ivy League roots: Dudley went to Yale and Kitzhaber to Dartmouth.

That will be a race worth following.

When Kitzhaber announced his intention to seek a third term, many Oregonians considered the November election a slam-dunk. Don’t underestimate Dudley. The guy emerged from a college that doesn’t offer athletic scholarships to play more than a decade and a half in the NBA. He didn’t score a lot of points, particularly from the foul line. But he earned a reputation as a defensive specialist, in part because of his ability to block shots.

While Kitzhaber may end up winning a third term this fall — Democrats have a sizable registration advantage, after all — Dudley is the Republican candidate least likely to be dunked on, and most likely to pull off an upset.

Voters should give him a chance.

My Nickel’s Worth Donkey shoes In response to Ms. Brubaker’s April 12 letter, “Galloping to a new floor:” Did she walk the gym floor following the donkey basketball fundraiser?

Did she talk to anyone from the school regarding the condition of the gym floor? Did she, by chance, consider the donkeys’ hooves would be covered with rubber shoes to protect the floor?

Brubaker needs to do her homework to verify facts.

In response to her three bullet points: 1. The fact that the leadership at Summit High School allowed this to happen demonstrates their outstanding support of student sports and activities. This type of support has been proven, beyond doubt, to lead to more involved and more successful high school students.

2. The total number of attendees was/is irrelevant, however. The Summit High School equestrian team did make money to help defer the expenses of their equestrian activities. What is relevant is these students organized the entire fundraiser at no additional taxpayer expense.

3. Our response to her third point (damage to the gym floor) is addressed above.

Ashby for judge I enthusiastically endorse Wells Ashby’s candidacy for Deschutes County Circuit Court judge. While I’m no expert on the law, I believe Wells has all of the

qualities Central Oregonians would desire in a judge. He is an intelligent man of principle and integrity; he is fair and practical. I know Wells has a vision for a strong, healthy community and he has volunteered many hours for causes that improve the livability and safety of Deschutes County residents.

I’ve observed Wells’ professional conduct as a colleague on the Bend-La Pine school board. I would characterize him as a great listener; he processes information, asks focused questions and makes smart and thoughtful decisions. While I would be sorry to lose Wells as a member of the school board, all residents of Deschutes County would be fortunate to have such an outstanding public servant presiding in our courts. Please join me in choosing Wells Ashby for judge.

Health breakthrough As a new resident of Oregon, I am pleased that my representatives are standing up for the people against the insurance companies. For years, as a self-employed woman and a resident of Arizona and California, I have been unable to purchase health insurance at any

price. Last year, my insurance company denied me coverage after requiring a physical (for which I paid $400) only because my cholesterol count was 20 points too high. At 51 years old, I have never had any health problems at all, been hospitalized for any reason or taken any drugs of any kind, so why am I in the high-risk category? Because I am a woman? Anyway, thanks again — my grandmother lived to be 101 years old, so I may have a long life ahead, and it will be very nice to be able to buy health insurance.

Lisa Kitinoja La Pine

A good bill At times it’s hard to watch the heated conversation around the health care reform bill. The bottom line is this, from a community perspective, 32 million Americans who before could not afford health insurance now can. Additionally, for any fiscal conservative or for those who believe we need to rein in government spending, this bill will save Americans $1 trillion over the next two decades (according to the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office) versus doing nothing at all. Finally, small businesses will receive significant tax cuts starting this year to help them afford health coverage for all their employees.

I sure hope we can see through the political positioning to see what this bill really means to Americans’ health and the fiscal health of the country. It will save lives and save money.

What will liberals say about Florida candidate Allen West?

By Alfred Ferguson Bulletin guest columnist

W

ho, or what, in the world do President Barack Obama and his socialist/modern-liberal/ communist brigands and “social justice” revolutionaries seeking the “transformation” of America most admire?

At the “Summit of the Americas” in Trinidad and Tobago on April 17, President Obama greeted Cuban communist dictator Raul Castro and Venezuelan communist dictator Hugo Chavez warmly. It was our president being overcome with another “hug-a-thug” moment, which occurs quite frequently whenever President Obama is in the hate-America presence of some left-wing or Muslim dictator.

He can’t help it. Radical leftist and anti-America ideology is in his political makeup, and it adjures those of us looking on to be understanding, like his modern-liberal (“mod-lib”) claque and quack squad.

For contrast, regard President Obama’s recent treatment of Israel’s prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, head of state of the only freely elected democracy and

friend to America in the Middle East. No hearty hugs for him. The coldest of cold shoulders.

What, do you suppose, makes President Obama so admiring of a hateAmerica dictatorial commie thug like Hugo Chavez? Could it be how effective Hugo the Horrible is at silencing any critics brave enough to tell the truth about Hugo’s communism on the road to total dictatorial control? Obama has claimed it’s just “diplomatic courtesy” to Chavez, and that “diplomatic courtesy extends the hand of friendship.”

Any “diplomatic” gesture, statement or action by a nation is that nation’s approval, regard, or disapproval or disregard of the recipient. So what have we here: to an ally, in effect, “drop dead.” To a communist thug, “you’re my kind of guy.”

On March 22, 2009, Reuters news agency reported that Chavez called “comrade Obama” an “ignoramous.” But then on June 2, 2009, Enrique Pretel for Reuters reported that to Chavez “comrade Obama is more left wing.” Mutual admiration time?

Why the change? We have seen how

IN MY VIEW our president and his claque and quack squad in and out of government are reacting to conservatives’ uproar over the unconstitutional back-room shenanigans the Democrats pulled over the health care farrago. They do not like what they hear, what they see, what they feel may well be coming at them in subsequent elections. They demand silence from critics accompanied by howling assent from claque and quack.

Here’s how Obama’s main squeeze in South America silences critics. On April 3, The New York Times reported that a judge in Venezuela, Marie Lourdes Afiuni, made a ruling Hugo the Horrible resented. So he sent intelligence goons to arrest her, proclaiming that she should have been shot.

She may well wish she had been, given the actual fate awaiting her — imprisonment in hell, an overcrowded women’s prison near Caracas called Los Toques, with a howling mob of Chavez-inspired inmates threatening to burn her alive.

If Judge Afiuni gets out of that place

alive, she will have been only one of countless others Obama’s hug-a-thug buddy, Chavez, has arrested, imprisoned, tortured or maybe just “disappeared” for challenging the communist dictator’s lawless absolute law. The attorney general for Chavez says that such arrests are necessary “to suppress conspiracies” and “to prosecute those whose comments are deemed offensive to Chavez.”

We are lucky here in America under the oligarchic rule of Obama and his wrecking crew. His peculiar attorney general, Eric Holder, has so far just persecuted heroic defenders of America — like the Navy Seals for punching a Muslim terrorist in the gut after he spit in their faces.

So far, “comments deemed offensive” to Obama are not punishable by imprisonment. We just get our answering-machine clogged-up with hate messages from the claque and quack brigade often threatening colorful but unimaginative forms of violence.

Toward such as these, compassion should prevail. Being a mod-lib hypocrite takes a lot out of a person. And not much has ever been put in. So what are

they going to do when a promising, upand-coming Florida candidate for the House of Representatives comes their way, perhaps ultimately all the way to the White House?

His name is Allen B. West. He is a retired army colonel of much distinguished service. His father served in World War II, third of four generations to serve in the military. Nothing ambiguous or dodgy about the origins or loyalty of this splendid man. Moreover he is a graduate of the University of Tennessee and Kansas State — no poison-Ivy League in his educational background, It’s a terrible problem for mod-libs.

When they are energized to call Col. West vile names, they’ll have to avoid “racist.” Because Col. West is, you see, what is called in the stupid politically correct argot of this demented time, “black.”

I suspect they’ll just make do with “fascist” or some such. They can always retread the vile epithets continuously hurled by mod-libs at Justice Clarence Thomas and Thomas Sowell. Lots of mileage left.

The first-place Division A combo winners from Sisters High School perform at the Reno Jazz Festival. From left, guitarist Brett Pray, drummer Tanner Smith, vibraphonist Blake Henderson and bassist Trevor Ford.

Band Continued from C1 The Sisters High School combo group was one of seven bands picked to perform during the awards ceremony this year.

Combo bands consist of up to nine musicians, Henderson said.

Bands compete in divisions such as school choir, school band and combo, and these are further separated into classifications based on school size. The largest schools are AAAA, with increasingly smaller schools categorized as AAA, AA, A, B and so on. Jazz

Fair Continued from C1 “We kind of hit the ground running, and we went after everyone we could,” Despotopulos said. “We contacted anyone who participated with the fair in the past eight or nine years. Some of those groups that we contacted are no longer in business and some still are, and they decided that they’ll come back and participate either as a sponsor or vendor. And that’s what helped increase our numbers.”

Despotopulos said the economy may be showing signs of recovery.

“Maybe it’s a sign that times are changing — that things are getting better,” he said.

Anna Johnson, public com-

Iraq Continued from C1 He said the soldiers have received word that they’ll be split up among other companies around the state — to Woodburn, Hermiston and Pendleton, among other locations — beginning next month.

The reorganization means the local soldiers will have to travel out of the area for regular training and will be serving with a new group of soldiers in Iraq.

Harrison said Bravo Company has been gearing up for a possible deployment since last fall, when the Department of Defense issued a mobilization alert for the 3-116 Cavalry. The news about the company being split up came as a bit of a surprise, he said, but also provides some extra time for the soldiers to adjust before the deployment begins.

“It kind of came a little quicker than we thought — we thought we would have one last drill to

festival organizers decide which class a school band will enter based on the size of the school, and the Sisters High School band won its first place award in the class A combo division.

Guitarist Brett Pray, a 15-yearold sophomore, said the first place award and invitation to play at the final concert showed the band’s hard work paid off.

“Coming from a small town like Sisters, it’s fun to represent our town because a lot of people don’t know Sisters very well,” Pray said.

The other members of the combo band are Jody Henderson’s

daughter, Blake Henderson, who plays vibraphone, and Tanner Smith, who plays drums.

Ford also walked away from the Reno Jazz Festival with a $500 partial scholarship for the Stanford Jazz Workshop this summer.

Bend High School’s band also attended the festival, and took fourth place in the AA high school combo division and fifth place in the B high school band division, according to the festival’s website.

munications coordinator for Deschutes County, said sponsorships, in general, help to pay for expenses.

“When you have sponsorships for an event, it frees up money to focus on making the event even better,” Johnson said. “Our fair is so successful every year, because it has a variety of vendors, attractions, amazing musical talent and those concerts are always free with admission.”

This year the fair runs from July 28 through Aug. 1 and features a rodeo, carnivals and concerts. The event lasted four days last year, but will be extended for an extra day this year. Last year, the four-day event was forced to close for a couple of hours on two days, because of severe thunderstorms.

“Last year, we had to shut

down for two hours on Thursday, and we had to shut down the majority of the fair on Saturday,” Despotopulos said. “And it was over 100 degrees each day.”

Despotopulos said approximately 167,000 people showed up to the event last year. He expects more than 200,000 people to attend this year. He hopes temperatures will hover in the mid-80s.

Johnson said last year was challenging, but she is hopeful this year.

“You just never know what Mother Nature is going to provide,” she said. “But we’re hopeful. When we have great weather, we have really successful attendance.”

get everybody’s ducks in a row, but everyone will be going this next month to their new units,” he said. “But on the other hand, this gives them more face time.”

The 3-116 Cavalry deployed to Kirkuk, Iraq, in June 2004 and returned home in November 2005. That deployment included 384 Oregon soldiers.

The announcement about the upcoming mission comes just after about 2,700 Oregon soldiers with the Guard’s 41st Infantry Brigade Combat team returned home from Iraq. That deployment was the state’s largest since World War II. Some of the soldiers who served with the 41st Brigade were members of the 3-116 Cavalry who volunteered to go to the Middle East, said Capt. Stephen Bomar, a spokesman for the Oregon Military Department.

He said it’s possible that some of those soldiers could be sent back to Iraq this year, but Harrison said they’d likely have to put in a special request to go back after such a short time at home.

As the soldiers gear up for the deployment, officials said they’re still working out the details of where some services for families will be located. Harrison said it’s likely that spouses of local soldiers who are sent to train with other companies around the state will be invited to participate in family groups in those areas and be able to keep up a local group.

Sgt. Kevin Nelson, at the 3-116 headquarters in La Grande, said getting families ready is one of the unit’s top priorities as the deployment approaches.

“We’re always trying to incorporate with families as well as we can and keep them wellinformed,” he said. “We’ve been really trying to get a good strong family program going before we deploy — that way the families back here don’t see spouses go to combat and not know what’s going on.”

Paul Schaefer, a Germanborn evangelical preacher who was convicted for sexually abusing 25 children while leading one of the world’s most notorious anti-Semitic and apocalyptic sects, died April 24 at a prison hospital in Chile.

He was 89.

He was serving a 20-year prison sentence for the sexual abuse of the children at his enclave in southern Chile, a place that human rights groups say doubled as a detention and torture center for opponents of Gen. Augusto Pinochet.

At the time of his death, Schaefer was still under investigation for the 1985 disappearance of mathematician Boris Weisfeiler, an American citizen who went missing while hiking.

Courts Continued from C1 “A judge will have files waiting for him in Prineville he needs to address and generally can’t until he goes back to Prineville,” she said. “Once those are scanned in, a judge can sit at his desk in Madras and pull up files in Prineville, read the pleadings and address anything he needs to.”

The court documents would be available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Lemman said the state is still working on how complex criminal cases would be filed and how to ensure the public’s privacy.

“It’s the canary in the coal mine, we’re looking for problems

and making sure it works,” Lemman said. “We’re stepping in the shallow end, before the deep end.”

Lemman said small counties were picked to pilot the program, since caseloads are usually smaller.

Access to the information would be similar to how it works now. If a file is sealed, it won’t matter if it’s digital. If a person is party to the case, they could have more access to the information than someone in the public.

The information is not on the World Wide Web and he said people will most likely need to know what they are looking for to find it — similar to the current paper system.

“The point is to improve access

to information ... but if I want to Google your name and find out how many countries you’ve been sued in, we’re not dumping it all on the Internet. That’s not the kind of system we’re setting up.”

For the 2009-11 biennium, the Legislature approved $20.3 million to fund eCourt.

The main goal, Lemman said, is simple.

“A year from now, my hope is rather than walking the lawsuit to the courthouse, I can e-mail it,” he said.

“We’re catching the court system up to the 21st Century,” he said.

Franklin Mieuli, the unconventional and popular owner of the Golden State Warriors for nearly a quarter century who in 1975 brought the franchise its only National Basketball Association championship in nearly 40 years on the West Coast, died Sunday. He was 89.

The death was announced by the Warriors, who said he died of natural causes in the Bay Area. A local boy who made good, Mieuli, grew up in San Jose and ran a successful radio production company. He bought a partial stake in the Warriors when the team moved to the Bay Area from Philadelphia in 1962 (taking with them the star center Wilt Chamberlain) and became a majority shareholder shortly thereafter.

Though it played its home games in several arenas throughout the Bay Area — most frequently at the Cow Palace, in Daly City — the team was called the San Francisco Warriors throughout the 1960s.

Mieuli moved the team to Oakland in 1971 and changed its name to the Golden State Warriors; he sold the team in 1986.

Often referred to as eccentric, Mieuli eschewed business dress and grooming; heavily bearded, he favored jeans, Ha-

Rumors of wolves have some in Colorado howling

By DeeDee Correll McClatchy-Tribune News Service

DENVER — The news had scarcely gotten out that a western Colorado rancher suspected he had wolves on his land when the phone started ringing at state wildlife offices.

“Get rid of them, and do it quietly,” one caller said.

“You need to make sure no one is trying to shoot these wolves,” another offered.

No one has confirmed yet whether a pack of wolves has taken up residence at the High Lonesome Ranch in De Beque, nearly 200 miles west of Denver, but even the prospect has created a stir in a state that hasn’t seen a regular wolf population in 70 years.

Wildlife officials say both sides are reacting prematurely to a claim that could prove groundless.

Wolves were exterminated from Colorado by the 1940s, although in recent years, lone wolves occasionally have forayed into the state from the Northern Rockies.

Two years ago, High Lonesome Ranch owner Paul Vahldiek Jr.

“We’re going to wait for the science, especially given the political nature of wolves in today’s world.”

— Randy Hampton, Colorado Wildlife spokesman hired biologists to survey his land for, among other things, evidence of decline in aspen stands. What they found was evidence of what he believes to be more than one wolf: droppings, sightings and howls.

“Maybe it’s a good thing for the ecosystem,” said Vahldiek, who has ordered DNA analysis on the scat and expects results in a few months.

Such testing can determine whether the scat came from a wolf or wolf-dog hybrid, said Ed Bangs, wolf recovery coordinator for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. People often release hybrids into the wild when they no longer

want them as pets.

Even if the testing does confirm lupine genetics, it doesn’t mean a pack is taking up residence, said Bangs, adding that his agency has a system to track and verify such matters.

The establishment of a pack would be significant, but Bangs doubts that’s the case. “Wolf packs don’t let you miss them,” he said.

“They’re incredibly obvious.”

Colorado wildlife officials also are taking a cautious approach.

“We’re going to wait for the science, especially given the political nature of wolves in today’s world,” said state Division of Wildlife spokesman Randy Hampton, who has fielded calls not only from supporters and opponents of wolves, but also from those who say Vahldiek is perpetrating a hoax, a conjecture the ranch owner rejects.

“So much reaction comes from the far right and far left.

I hope that sensible heads prevail,” Vahldiek said. “I don’t think wolves need to be recolonized in downtown Denver, but there are places they can exist.”

PREP BOYS GOLF

Storm top field for victory at Tetherow Challenge Bulletin staff report With the Intermountain Conference district golf tournament just two weeks away, the Summit boys posted another strong finish, winning the 2010 Tetherow Challenge on Monday at Tetherow Golf Club.

The Storm’s Dylan Cramer won the event with an even 72 while teammates Jesse Heinly (73) and Jordan Schiemer (75) took second and third, respectively. With Summit owning the top three spots, the Storm edged out runner-up Redmond 305-317 in the team standings.

“It was another strong step forward,” said Storm coach Mark Tichenor. “We

met a lot of expectations today.”

Cramer led the way for Summit on the back nine, recording a 1-under 35 after shooting a 1-over 37 on the front.

The Storm sophomore birdied the par-4 10th hole and then eagled the par-4 11th, holing in his second shot with a 9-iron from about 130 yards out, according to Tichenor.

“We call them our Big Three,” Tichenor said about Cramer, Heinly and Schiemer, all of whom are returners from Summit’s 2009 squad that placed third at the Class 5A state tournament. “Any one of them can lead us any given day.”

Makeover in store for the Cascade Classic in ’10 H

COLLEGE AT H L E T I C S UO hires athletics finance director EUGENE — The University of Oregon has hired someone to direct all aspects of the athletic department’s business operations.

The move to appoint Jamie Moffitt comes after it was learned that the school’s last two athletic directors — Mike Bellotti and Pat Kilkenny — worked for a significant period without signed contracts.

Moffitt is currently the associate dean for finance and operations at the UO School of Law. The Register-Guard newspaper reported Monday that Moffitt will start her new job May 1. Her annual salary will be $155,250.

Lorraine Davis, Oregon’s interim athletic director, said she would have created Moffitt’s position even without the revelation that Bellotti and Kilkenny had worked without contracts. “I felt there needed to be a high-level finance and administration person to coordinate all the functions of budgets, finances, human resources, strategic planning and contracts,” Davis said.

“It’s not as coordinated as it needs to be.”

oping to inject a shot of adrenaline into the 2010 Cascade Cycling Classic, organizers have retooled Central Oregon’s long-running bicycle stage race by swapping a prologue for a road race, while another popular race in the six-stage lineup is headed for a significant makeover.

This summer’s 31st running of the Bend Memorial Clinic Cascade Cycling Classic is scheduled for July 20-25. Gone is the lengthy road race that typically has opened the CCC in past years.

It will be replaced by a quick and fan-friendly prologue, to be staged in Bend’s Old Mill District.

The Old Mill District prologue will launch the six-day race with a start amid the shopping district, from where riders will take off on a loop west of the Deschutes River. The two-mile individual time trial will conclude on Columbia Street before it intersects with Bond Street.

Prologues — short, individual time trials that precede the first stage — are common at major stage races worldwide.

A different ride Park and rec mountain biking program brings all kinds to trails around Central Oregon

By Katie Brauns The Bulletin

Expectations are neither met nor diminished when joining THIS mountain biking group.

The ride is what participants make it. And the destination is almost always different.

“I wanted to offer something — not hard core, but something for the general masses,” says Kevin Wooster, mountain bike guide with the Bend Park & Recreation District, between slugs from his water bottle on a sunny singletrack trail in La Pine State Park.

He is leading a group of nine on the park district adult mountain bike program’s first ride of 2010. Longtime riders and novices alike cruise along twisty, undulating trails. The pace is

COMMUNITY SPORTS brisk, but Wooster stops frequently to ensure that everyone stays together.

The group also takes little side trips, one to see a waterfall on Fall River, another to witness what is recognized as one of the oldest Ponderosa Pine trees in Oregon. In all, the group travels about 10 miles through the park in a span of 2 1⁄2 hours.

The rides — soon to be meeting twice a month on Saturdays — typically begin in April and continue through November.

Wooster founded the program

PHOENIX — Reserves Channing Frye and Jared Dudley broke out of their series-long shooting slumps with 20 and 19 points, respectively, and the Phoenix Suns overcame an early 14-point deficit to rout the Portland Trail Blazers 107-88 on Monday night and take a 3-2 lead in their first-round playoff series.

Phoenix can advance to the second round by beating the Blazers in Portland on Thursday.

Frye, who spent the previous two seasons on the Portland bench, made three-of-five threepointers and grabbed eight rebounds.

S B Football • Titans sign Oregon RB Blount: LeGarrette Blount, the Oregon running back suspended for punching a player last season, has been signed by the Tennessee Titans as an undrafted free agent. Blount missed eight games in 2009 for punching Boise State defensive end Byron Hout in the season opener Sept. 3. Blount returned late in the season and played in the Rose Bowl loss to Ohio State.

• Roethlisberger: Won’t appeal suspension: A chastened Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger accepted his six-game suspension for violating the NFL’s personal conduct policy Monday and promised to “comply with what is asked of me — and more.” In his first comments since the NFL handed down the penalty last week, Roethlisberger apologized to his teammates and fans for his behavior last month in a Georgia bar, where a 20-yearold college student accused him of sexual assault.

• SEC exploring expansion just in case: Southeastern Conference commissioner Mike Slive says the league isn’t considering adding teams but is working on a plan to keep up with other conferences if they expand just in case. The commissioner said Monday that the 12-member SEC hasn’t talked to any institutions about joining and has no plans to do so. The expansion exploration is just an internal look at the potential advantages and disadvantages in case there is a “significant shift in the conference paradigm,” he said. Slive didn’t elaborate on how much expansion would fit that billing.

Soccer • Beckham says recovery is 2 months behind schedule: England midfielder David Beckham says he won’t be able to play again until November, meaning he’ll miss the entire MLS season for the Los Angeles Galaxy. Beckham underwent surgery in March after rupturing his Achilles’ tendon while on loan at AC Milan. He had previously said he expected to be back by September.

Basketball • Iowa State’s McDermott to take Creighton job: Creighton says Iowa State’s Greg McDermott is its new men’s basketball coach. Creighton sports information director Rob Anderson announced the news in a text message to members of the media on Monday. McDermott led Northern Iowa to the NCAA tournament three straight years before leaving for Iowa State in 2006. He has never had a winning season at Iowa State, where he made $900,000 last year and was signed through 2015.

• Pa. cop gets 2 years for tipping off ex-NBA player: A former Philadelphia police officer will spend two years in prison for alerting former NBA player and childhood friend Jerome “Pooh” Richardson to an impending drug raid.

U.S. District Judge Timothy Savage sentenced Rickie Durham on Monday for placing a call to Richardson just hours before an August 2005 drug raid that resulted in the arrest of drug kingpin Alton Coles and Richardson’s halfsister. After the call, Richardson called his sister and told her to leave the New Jersey house she shared with Coles.

Coles and Richardson’s sister were arrested hours later.

Baseball • Howard signs $125 million extension with Phillies: Ryan Howard has agreed to a $125 million, five-year contract extension through 2016 with the Philadelphia Phillies that includes a club option for 2017. The 30-year-old will make $20 million each in 2012 and 2013 and $25 million annually from 2014-16. The Phillies have a $23 million club option for 2017 with a $10 million buyout.

Auto racing • Johnson takes blame for Gordon wreck at Talladega: Four-time defending NASCAR champion Jimmie Johnson took the blame for making a mistake that ultimately led to teammate Jeff Gordon’s wreck at Talladega Superspeedway. Johnson said he was trying to slide in front of Gordon late in Sunday’s race so the two Hendrick Motorsports drivers could draft together toward the front. But, he said Gordon was coming too fast. Johnson’s move instead had the effect of a block, and Gordon was forced off the apron in a defensive move. His momentum gone, Gordon slid back in traffic and was caught moments later in a multi-car crash.

MEN’S COLLEGE BASKETBALL

Altman set to take over as Oregon’s coach

By Anne M. Peterson The Associated Press

Longtime Creighton coach Dana Altman has signed a seven-year deal worth $1.8 million annually to become Oregon’s new head basketball coach.

Altman, 51, spent 16 seasons at Creighton, finishing with a 327176 record. He led the Bluejays to 11 consecutive 20-win seasons before they went 18-16 this past season.

Creighton went to the postseason 13 times in his tenure, including seven NCAA Tournament appearances.

Altman replaces Ernie Kent, who was dismissed after 13 seasons at his alma mater. The Ducks went 16-16 last season.

“I think this place can be special. Is there a lot of work to be done? Absolutely. Is there a culture to be changed? Possibly,” Altman said. “As I spend more time with the players we’ll make adjustments and we’ll move on and we’ll get some new players.

But we can build something special here. Everything is in place.”

Altman’s appointment was announced Monday at a news conference at Oregon’s new Matthew Knight Arena, which is currently under construction and will replace venerable MacArthur Court.

The hiring ends more than a monthlong search during which several high profile names — including Michigan State’s Tom Izzo and Minnesota’s Tubby

Smith — where rumored to be on Oregon’s wish list. Missouri coach Mike Anderson said the Ducks approached him, but he turned down the job.

Altman joked about the process.

“You look at my wife, you look at me, I wasn’t her first choice either,” he said.

Former Oregon athletic director Pat Kilkenny, who conducted the search, disputed talk that the job was hard to fill.

“We had literally five national championship coaches showed an interest in our job and three of them would have taken it. The perception that people didn’t want the job couldn’t have been further from the truth,” he said.

“It was all about getting this right. We could not afford to make a mistake here.”

Altman, who also had coaching stints at Marshall and Kansas State, is considered a strong bench coach who produces uptempo, defense-oriented teams.

In April 2007, Altman left Creighton to take the Arkansas job but returned to Omaha within 24 hours after having a change of heart.

“This is home. This is where I will finish my coaching career.

That’s pretty obvious now,” Altman said at a news conference after Creighton athletic director Bruce Rasmussen hired him back.

On Monday he said: “If it wasn’t hard to leave, I wasn’t do-

Before his flirtation with Arkansas, Altman had strung together nine straight 20-win seasons and taken the Bluejays to

the NCAA tournament seven of his 13 years at the school.

His next two teams were 2211 and 27-8 and went to the NIT. Last season’s squad was 18-16

N B A P L AYO F F R O U N D U P

and was relegated to the CollegeInsider.com tournament.

Altman will be succeeded at Creighton by Iowa State’s Greg McDermott.

Kilkenny said he heard nothing but praise for Altman.

“If I spoke to 20 coaches about his basketball abilities, his leadership, his coaching abilities, I got 20 A-pluses,” he said.

Junior forward Teondre Williams said he was relieved the search was over. Three sophomores on the team — Drew Wiley, Matt Humphrey and Josh Crittle — have announced plans to transfer.

“It’s a fresh start. I’m even going to change my number to get a whole new fresh start, something that I’m really looking forward too,” Williams said.

Altman joins a Ducks program that is currently without an athletic director.

Former football coach Mike Bellotti left the AD’s office last month to become a college football analyst with ESPN. His departure became controversial after it was made public that he never signed a written contract and was leaving the Ducks with a $2.3 million “golden parachute.”

Altman said he did have concerns about Oregon’s AD vacancy.

“I trust the administration to put someone in place that will run our athletic program on a national scale, he said, “and a businessman that will take care of fundraising and dollars and cents and who will also have the student-athletes’ interest at heart.”

Magic complete sweep of Bobcats Predators knocked from The Associated Press CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Dwight Howard kept collecting fouls, and all the Orlando Magic did was become the first team to advance in the NBA playoffs.

Vince Carter scored 21 points, Jameer Nelson added 18 and the Magic showcased their depth and pressure shot-making in a 99-90 victory over the Charlotte Bobcats on Monday night to complete a sweep of their firstround series.

Howard was held to six points in his fourth straight game in foul trouble, but the Magic never flinched to accomplish their first fourgame sweep in franchise history. Orlando will face the Atlanta-Milwaukee winner in the Eastern Conference semifinals.

Tyrus Thomas scored a career playoff-high 21 points for the Bobcats, whose focus will now almost immediately turn to nomadic coach Larry Brown’s future with the team.

Howard did grab 13 rebounds, but was limited to 23 minutes before fouling out for the second straight game. The Magic, though, got key contributions and big shots from others.

Rashard Lewis scored 17 points, Matt Barnes added 14 and Orlando held Stephen Jackson to two-of-11 shooting to make sure Charlotte would be the only team not to win a first-round game.

After Charlotte cut Orlando’s lead to one on Tyson Chandler’s two free throws, Mickael Pietrus hit consecutive three-pointers directly across the floor from Bobcats owner Michael Jordan’s seat to put the Magic ahead

83-76 with 5:47 left.

Nelson’s three-pointer less than a minute later — after Gerald Wallace missed two free throws — put it away for the Magic, whose only previous playoff sweep was a 3-0 victory over Detroit in 1996.

They made quick work of the Bobcats, whose first playoff appearance turned into a miserable offensive exhibition. Charlotte couldn’t take advantage of Howard’s long stints on the bench — and now has to wonder if its coach will be back.

Brown, in the second season of his 13th head coaching job in college and the pros, said two weeks ago that Jordan is “the only guy I’m going to coach for.” But Jordan said last month he wouldn’t hold the 69-year-old Brown to his contract if he wanted to leave for family reasons.

Brandon Jennings scored 23 points and John Salmons added 22 for the Bucks, who survived a fourth-quarter surge led by Atlanta stars Joe Johnson and Josh Smith. Now the Hawks head home for Game 5, desperately needing a win to stave off a surprising challenge by a team missing its best player, injured center Andrew Bogut.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The Chicago Blackhawks are moving on thanks to strong penalty killing and a couple of key bounces of the puck.

Jonathan Toews scored a power-play goal to cap a wild first period that featured one goal off Patrick Kane’s toe near mid-ice, and the Blackhawks held on for a 5-3 victory over the Nashville Predators on Monday night. Chicago advanced to the Western Conference semifinals for the second straight year.

“We played like we had to win this game, and the first period had more action than we’ve seen,” Chicago coach Joel Quenneville said.

“The start of this game really was not just offense but unpredictability of the game,” he added. “I thought we settled down after that. We had a chance to win. You don’t want to play any extra games, you don’t want to play any extra shifts. ... Now we’ve got Vancouver again.”

The Blackhawks won the final three games of the series, setting up a second-round matchup with the Canucks for the second consecutive season.

Chicago hasn’t lost a Game 6 with the chance to eliminate an opponent since 1995.

Nashville has been eliminated in all five of its postseason appearances on home ice.

“There is a loss for words right now,” said Nashville captain Jason Arnott, who scored his only two goals of the series Monday. “We work all season, had a great opportunity, and let it slip away. It’s tough to handle.”

The Predators, who blew a lead with 13.6 seconds left in regulation in Game 5 on Saturday, scored three more goals than they had in two previous Game 6 losses. But they couldn’t beat Antti Niemi in the final two periods even when getting three power plays within 4:29 of the third.

Chicago defenseman Duncan Keith said the Blackhawks didn’t want to go back

home for Game 7.

“There is plays where you have to take penalties ... What can you do? You go in the box, and we dealt with it. I thought we did a good job of not panicking,” Keith said.

Chicago led 4-3 going into the third, where Nashville outshot the Blackhawks 15-3. The rookie goalie Niemi stopped Martin Erat in front with 85 seconds left.

Nashville pulled goalie Pekka Rinne with 1:15 remaining, but John Madden scored an empty netter with 7.8 seconds left to seal the victory.

Toews also had an assist. Keith and Patrick Sharp each had a goal and an assist, and Patrick Kane had a goal. Marian Hossa added two assists in a game in which Nashville wanted him to miss. The Predators thought Hossa deserved to be suspended for a boarding penalty against defenseman Dan Hamhuis in the Blackhawks’ overtime win Saturday.

Also on Monday: Bruins . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4 Sabres. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 3 BOSTON — David Krejci had two goals and one assist to lead Boston to a victory over Buffalo in Game 6 of their first-round playoff series and put the Bruins in the Eastern Conference semifinals.

Tuukka Rask stopped 27 shots for Boston, which will play either Philadelphia or Pittsburgh in the second round.

Canadiens . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4 Capitals. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1 MONTREAL — Jaroslav Halak made 53 saves, and Michael Cammalleri scored twice in the first period for eighth-seeded Montreal, which stayed alive with a victory over Washington and forced a Game 7 in the first-round series.

Halak made 18 saves in the first, 14 in the second, and 21 in the third. He came within 4:50 of his first playoff shutout. Halak won his second straight start despite the top-seeded Capitals’ 5422 advantage in shots.

Cubs 4, Nationals 3 (10 innings) CHICAGO — Aramis Ramirez walked with the bases loaded in the 10th inning to give Chicago a victory over Washington, its fourth straight win. Ryan Theriot, coming off a five-hit game against Milwaukee on Sunday, started the winning rally with a leadoff single to right against Brian Bruney (1-1). Derrek Lee walked with one out before Marlon Byrd blooped a single over second baseman Christian Guzman for his third hit.

That loaded the bases for Ramirez, who walked on four pitches and became the third player — and second Cub — to walk with the bases loaded in the game.

Baseball’s ’neighborhood’ is a lot smaller these days

By Jon Krawczynski The Associated Press

MINNEAPOLIS — J.J. Hardy remembers a time when he didn’t have to get all that close to second base before starting to turn a double play.

All the Twins shortstop had to do was “get in the neighborhood” of the bag to record the first out, hence the nickname “the neighborhood play.”

“I feel like there are some shortstops and second basemen that do that,” Hardy said. “I might have done it a couple times. Not on purpose. I always try to be on the bag, but maybe there’s a time I might be a little bit quick.”

Thanks to the influx of highdefinition cameras with zoom lenses in ballparks across the major leagues, the neighborhood is a whole lot smaller these days.

Umpires, players and managers say they are seeing a tighter enforcement of the rule that requires infielders to step on the

bag to get the out.

“It’s technology,” umpiring supervisor Randy Marsh said.

“Years ago there were what, three or four cameras at a game?

There are so many more now.

These guys are under incredible scrutiny and they do a great job. There’s a camera looking over their shoulder on every call.

They know it.”

Middle infielders argue that the “neighborhood” allowance protects them from getting hurt on a take-out slide or being spiked while applying a tag.

For years, many umpires acquiesced, granting outs even as infielders occasionally didn’t touch the base or make the tag. Fans seated in the stands or watching at home from wide camera angles never knew the difference.

Today, HD cameras are everywhere, bringing with them the crisp, clear, slow-motion zoom replays that make it very difficult for umpires to continue to

grant that leeway.

“They’ll say, ‘You’ve got to give him that,’” veteran umpire Tim Tschida said. “Yeah? Well what do you have to give me?”

The affect that computerized grading systems have had on the strike zone has been well documented. But it’s becoming more apparent that technology’s influence is trickling down in more subtle, yet substantial, ways.

“I think (umpires) have gotten a little bit more conscious about that because they know they get scrutinized over and over and over after a game,” Indians manager Manny Acta said. “If the ball beats you and you put a phantom tag on it like you have done in the past, that has disappeared because the guys know that with the technology nowadays, it can be shown over and over and over all night and guys don’t want to be exposed to that.”

Just ask Twins second baseman Orlando Hudson.

During a game against the Royals last week, Hudson took a throw from Joe Mauer that easily beat a stealing Alberto Callaspo.

Hudson swept his glove through early and missed the sliding Callaspo’s leg, the kind of “phantom tag” that for years may have been called an out.

But umpire Chad Fairchild correctly ruled that Hudson missed the tag and Callaspo was called safe.

“The game is hard enough and it’s so fast and the umpires have to try to make the best call that they can,” Hudson said. “There’s a lot of coaches on them, fans on them.

Baseball looks at it. ‘SportsCenter’ reshows it. So there’s a lot they have to go through to make the best call they can.”

Later in the same series, Royals shortstop Yuniesky Betancourt took a throw to start the turn for a double play. The catch was clean and the throw beat Twins baserunner Michael Cud-

dyer by a mile. But Betancourt never touched the base, and Cuddyer was called safe.

“They’re trying to get guys a little bit closer, but yet you don’t want to get anybody hurt,” Indians second baseman Mark Grudzielanek said. “So there’s good and bad to both of those things.”

Again, it was the correct call, but possibly one that would have been called differently not so long ago.

“That would have been an out in the past,” Cuddyer said.

Royals manager Trey Hillman argued, but to no avail.

“The game’s changed a little bit,” Hillman said. “With all the angles, they’ve got the box up there for the strike zone. They’ve got every angle on the bases. ...

(The ump) wasn’t out there creating stuff. It sure puts a middle infielder in harm’s way. I wish they’d give him the location on the double play. Those guys are

coming in pretty hard.”

Cuddyer, for one, is pleased with the development.

“I understand the neighborhood play. But the name of the game is touching the bags,” Cuddyer said. “It’s not like I can get close to hitting a home run and it counts as a home run. You have to hit a home run.

“That goes for any infielder, whether it’s our team or their team, I feel like you have to touch the bag. That gives a runner a chance to break up the double play.”

Hardy said he has no complaints about the increased enforcement, but teammate Brendan Harris said he wouldn’t mind a little extra room to work.

“You’re supposed to stick your nose in there, but every now and then you have Cuddy or Marlon Byrd barreling down on you,” Harris said. “If you know what’s good for you, you’ll get out of the way.”

Classic

Calendar

Continued from D1 “We want something that’s going to elevate the race in terms of spectator viewing,” CCC race director Chad Sperry told me Monday. “(A prologue) is a great opportunity to see these racers firsthand.”

In an effort to maximize spectator turnout, the prologue on Tuesday, July 20, will run from 6 to 8:30 in the evening. A revamped Three Creeks Road Race will take place on Wednesday, followed by the Skyliners Time Trial on Thursday and a CCC staple, the Cascade Lakes Road Race, on Friday. The Downtown Bend Criterium and Awbrey Butte Circuit Race, both standards of the Cascade Classic lineup, are on tap for Saturday and Sunday, respectively.

Sperry, now in his fourth year as Cascade Cycling Classic race director, said the changes to the 2010 event are designed not only to draw more spectators to the race, but also to keep the event fresh for both fans and participants.

“I always try to change up one or two stages,” said Sperry, who also organizes Oregon’s Mt. Hood Cycling Classic as well as the Tour of Utah, both high-profile stops on the national racing circuit. “I don’t like things to get stale.”

Altering the Cascade lineup each year prevents the same riders from dominating the race year in and year out, noted Sperry, and it keeps the teams on their toes. All of which ultimately makes the race more exciting for fans.

“It’s like the Tour de France, where they roll out new courses every year,” said Sperry. “And that’s the draw for the riders. You don’t know what to expect each year.

When you change one to two stages a year, it keep things fresh and new and changes up the perspective when the teams roll in.”

The Old Mill District prologue replaces the first stage of the Cascade Cycling Classic, a stage that over the last several years began in Redmond and passed by Smith Rock State Park, then continued through Prineville and Alfalfa before finishing in Bend. Last year, the Prineville Road Race concluded with a flat, sprint-style finish near Big Sky Park on the eastern outskirts of Bend.

Sperry said that the stage, which culminated at midafternoon on a weekday, understandably attracted few spectators. He added that the team directors he has talked to are supportive of the change to a prologue.

“They like to put on a show,” said Sperry of the pros who compete at Cascade. “Low spectator turnout at a stage finish in the middle of the day on the east side of town — that’s not as encouraging to them as seeing tons of people come out for a twilight event.”

A retooled Three Creeks Road Race marks another new twist for the 2010 Cascade Cycling Classic.

This year, the stage is slated to begin at the top of Santiam Pass on U.S Highway 20 in northernmost Deschutes County. From there, the men’s and women’s pro/elite pelotons will descend south on U.S. Highway 126 to the town of McKenzie Bridge before making their way back to Sisters by riding up and over the scenic old McKenzie Pass.

This brute of a climbing stage will conclude at Three Creek Sno-park west of Sisters. CCC race organizers have been unable to utilize McKenzie Pass for the last two years because parts of the road have been under construction during the race. This year, new pavement along with the route’s trademark long and winding climbs and descents, combined with wind-swept lava fields, should make the stage both enormously challenging and unpredictable.

“It’s going to be absolutely something to be talked about on the (National Racing Calendar) circuit this year for sure,” Sperry insisted. “This stage by far has more elevation gain than any stage the Cascade has run in a number of years.”

The National Racing Calendar is a series of 27 high-profile cycling races (of which only eight are stage races) held across the country, showcasing the best domestic teams and riders in the U.S. Sperry said he is anticipating capacity fields in both the men’s and women’s pro races at Cascade this year, and he encouraged local riders to register early.

“Right now, we have a commitment from every major pro team in the country, with the exception of Jelly Belly,” Sperry said, noting that the pro men’s peloton for the CCC caps at 185 riders. “I think we’re going to have the deepest, strongest race in the NRC this year. It’s amazing, the interest.”

Registration for the Cascade Cycling Classic is open at www. cascade-classic.org. Registration is also open for the amateur version of the event — the Cascade Stage Race — at www.mbsef.org.

Lava Bear golfer Ryan Crownover chips to the par 4 15th green at Tetherow Golf Club with Mount Bachelor in the background Monday.

Storm Continued from D1 Cramer, Heinly and Schiemer all caddy part-time at Tetherow, one of the few links-style golf courses in the state.

Andy Rodby paced the runner-up Panthers with a 77, while his younger brother Mason Rodby shot a 78. The Rodby brothers finished fifth and sixth, respectively.

Portland schools Central Catholic and Cleveland tied for third with team scores of

Blazers Continued from D1 Dudley was five of nine on threes. The Suns’ two best three-point shooters in the regular season, Frye and Dudley had been a combined 14 of 48 (29 percent) on threes in the first four games of the series.

Amare Stoudemire scored 19, and Steve Nash had 14 points and 10 assists for Phoenix.

Andre Miller scored 21, while LaMarcus Aldridge and Jerryd Bayless had 17 apiece for the Trail Blazers.

Phoenix made 27-of-29 free throws to the Trail Blazers’ 17 of 24.

Portland All-Star Brandon Roy, in his second game back after undergoing arthoscopic knee surgery to repair a torn meniscus just 10 days ago, drew three fouls in an ineffective 6½ minutes in the first half. He finished with five points on two-of-seven shooting in 19 minutes.

It’s either been a Phoenix blowout or a Suns loss in this series. The Suns’ three victories have been by 29, 19 and 19 points.

Phoenix was down by 23-9 eight minutes into the game but rallied to tie it before the first quarter was over and took the lead for good in the second period.

Frye’s 6-foot hook shot put Phoenix ahead 38-36 and the Blazers never caught up. An 8-2 spurt over the final 2:17

319. Sisters, the only Class 4A school at the nine-team tournament, finished sixth at 344 strokes while Bend High and Mountain View ended the day in eighth and ninth place.

“It was very benign until about the last hour,” Lava Bear coach Rusty Clemons said of the weather. “Then the wind really picked up.”

Jonathan Standen led Sisters with a 78, which tied him for sixth place. Martin Marquez highlighted the Bend High effort with an 82 and Paul Coduti paced Mountain View with an 85.

gave Phoenix a 54-47 lead at the half. Frye and Dudley each had a three-pointer in the run.

The closest the Trail Blazers got in the third quarter was 67-59 after Miller made a free throw with 4:14 to go.

Nash had a quiet scoring night before erupting with nine as Phoenix outscored Portland 17-7 the rest of the third quarter. His two free throws, followed by a threepointer, put the Suns up 80-65.

Dudley knocked the ball loose for a turnover that led to Jason Richardson’s fast-break dunk that made it 82-65. After Roy’s free throw, Dudley scored inside to put Phoenix ahead 84-66 after three — and this one was over.

Portland outshot the Suns 54 percent to 48 percent in the first half yet still trailed by 10.

That’s because Phoenix dominated every other facet of the game, making 14-of-15 free throws to the Blazers’ four of six and outrebounding Portland 22-14 — 10-3 on the offensive boards. The Suns had five offensive rebounds in the second quarter to none for the Trail Blazers.

Phoenix led by as many as 27 in the final quarter. The Suns dominated points in the paint 40-28 and had a 17-6 advantage in fast-break points.

Phoenix, the NBA’s highestscoring team in the regular season, had just four fastbreak points in each of its two losses in the series.

The Suns outrebounded the bigger Trail Blazers 41-29.

D6 Tuesday, April 27, 2010 • THE BULLETIN

Ride Continued from D1 “I saw there was a need for the program,â€? notes Wooster, who previously volunteered on hikes and snowshoe trips led by his wife. “I reached a point in my life when I wanted to share my knowledge and skills and teach people. ‌ A lot of people have gained mountain bike skills in the outings. ‌ That’s why I enjoy guiding.â€?

Since the mountain bike program’s beginning, Wooster has rarely taken a group on the same trail, though there are a few exceptions — favorites — that he revisits each season, such as trails around Paulina Lake and in La Pine State Park.

Other past ride locations include Peterson Ridge in Sisters, Horse Ridge east of Bend, some doubletrack trail and forest roads around Wanoga Butte off Century Drive, Kapka Butte in Sunriver, Katalo Butte off Cascade Lakes Highway, and Black Rock at Lava Butte off U.S. Highway 97 between Bend and Sunriver. Wooster has also led trips to Suttle Lake and Cultus Lake, and to trails off China Hat Road south of Bend.

A few loyal followers of the park district’s adult mountain bike rides come back each year.

John Mehlis, 73, has been riding with Wooster for six years.

Dave Cannon, 67, started with the group last year. Both Mehlis and Cannon moved to Bend from Southern California and joined the rides to explore Cen-

I B Rugby • Boys rugby team wins two more: The undefeated Bend Blues, a Central Oregon high school boys rugby team, crushed Columbia County 84-5 last Tuesday at Ponderosa Park in Bend. Ten different players scored for the Blues.

On Saturday in Camas, Wash., the Blues won again, beating Camas High School 24-12. Bend’s Ethan Hawes scored two tries, Kevin Baker and Alex Esselstrom scored one try apiece, and Sean Dougherty added two conversions to cap the scoring for the Blues.

Bend now stands atop the Rugby Oregon Southern Division with a league record of 6-0.

The Blues will play a home match this Saturday against Tualatin at Big Sky Park in Bend. Game time is 10 a.m.

Mehlis. “Bend is a terrific place to live, and meeting people is no problem.�

Cannon has been mountain

biking for more than 15 years.

Although the adult rides are designed for beginner to intermediate riders, Cannon feels that he gets the workout he seeks.

The rides “could be more challenging,� he says. “But it’s not so much about the intensity of it. I just enjoy being on the bike and being outside on the trails.� “With the population growing,� notes Wooster, “there is a population base that is not familiar with biking, but they love the outdoors. Folks want to learn the area and get creative and go to different places without getting lost.�

Wooster notes that he has taken groups to more than 50 different locations throughout Central Oregon. “This has been an inspiration to do more biking because he shows us new places to go,â€? says Laurie Craghead, 50, of Bend, as she walks up a short trail from the falls on Fall River. “With his Kev’s clinics (Wooster’s loosely organized clinics that he incorporates into his rides), I’ve gotten over fears of going over rocks and going over logs. ‌ I wouldn’t have been riding as much if it hadn’t been for these rides with the park district.â€?

Craghead was new to mountain biking four years ago when she joined the park district rides.

But she quickly learned tricks and tips enabling her to jump logs and stick with the group.

As this day’s ride comes to an end, novice rider Tammie Hove, 50, of Bend, says that while she was nervous beforehand, she realizes now that it was “perfect.�

“It was very safe,â€? says Hove, adding that she also felt challenged. “It’s tough, too. ‌ I don’t have anyone to ride with and I don’t want to get lost, so it was good to go with someone who knows the trails. I’ll do it every time.â€?

Hove also learned a thing or two about braking. Wooster schooled her on downhill braking so as not to flip over the front handlebars. “You use them both (brakes), but you feather the front one,�

Wooster explains. “Nobody told me that before,�

Hove replies.

To outdoor enthusiasts, Central Oregon is practically synonymous with mountain biking.

Dozens of group rides hit the trails throughout the area, but not all rides are designed with the beginner in mind. Some are for experienced riders who enjoy rallying down the trails fast, as most mountain bikers do. The park district rides have a staccato tempo: quick, with lots of stop-and-go riding. “We are not about extreme riding,� says Wooster. “But from the beginner to intermediate level, the more confidence one has on the trail, the funner it can be. It’s about pushing the boundaries of the skill level just a little bit. “It’s great to see the look on their face, when at first they say, ‘I’ve never done this before,’ (and) then afterward, it’s like ‘Wow! I can do it!’ �

Bend Senior Center

Lost & rarely found

Elk Meadow

Area lost and found bins collect items at a much faster rate than they are claimed

By Alandra Johnson The Bulletin

W

e leave stuff everywhere. Just shed it in piles like trees shivering in the fall.

Heaps, masses of things we leave while sitting on park benches, changing in locker rooms, swinging at playgrounds, swaying in time with crowds at concerts.

So many pieces of clothing, accessories and just plain stuff we discard and leave behind. And so little of it do we ever come back for. That is the lesson of the lost and found.

Stuff comes in by the bagful, but leaves in a trickle.

There’s a drawer jammed full of swimming goggles at Juniper Swim & Fitness Center — all abandoned within the past three weeks. There are stacks of towels, bins of swim shorts, a closet packed with flip-flops — all of it piling up in just three weeks.

The young are particularly prone to the discarding of things. When you outgrow coats, shoes, gloves and jeans every season, maybe specific items simply don’t have time to make a strong impression. That pink hoodie won’t last a year anyway, so what does it matter if you leave it by the swing set?

At Elk Meadow Elementary School in Bend, the lost and found is no bigger than at any other elementary school. But the heap of stuff still amazes. Dozens, and I mean dozens, of coats and sweatshirts fill a large wooden bin, plus more dangle from hangers. All of it has arrived since just before spring break. Classrooms of kids walk by the heap of stuff every day, but not much gets claimed.

Some things that make their way to the lost and found seem natural to leave and unlikely to be found. For instance, one dangly earring. For the owner, the earring could have fallen out anywhere, anytime. How to know it would be saved in a little plastic baggie at the Ticket Mill, alongside a half-dozen other pieces of castoff jewelry?

A water bottle — one of the nicer ones that cost well into the two-figures — could be easily forgotten at the Senior Center while taking a dance lesson. Or the pillow left in a hotel room, or the towel forgotten in the locker room. Those left-behinds seem to make some sense. And even if we noticed we lost our towel, how much effort are we willing

to expend to get it back?

But some of the abandoned stuff — and the lack of effort to retrieve it — is not as easily understood.

What about the skateboard? Or the scooter? Or the baby strollers in good condition? And what about the car seat (plus, how did the parents get their baby home after leaving the seat behind)?

At the Bend Senior Center, people have left a blood sugar testing device, a bridesmaid’s dress and an electric scooter.

Even the elementary school lost and found had a few surprises amid the coats, sweatshirts, gloves and caps. Who cast off their jeans? And why did pajamas ever come to school to begin with?

Most lost and founds included several misplaced cell phones. One wonders if the owner tried calling the phone to see who might answer.

And what about all the abandoned wallets and driver’s licenses? Local lost and founds contained plenty of wallets turned in by do-gooders — cash and credit cards securely in place.

All these valuables are sitting in boxes and drawers, waiting for an owner to make a claim. So why is no one claiming? Makes you wonder how many people lost something and then just threw up their hands. We’ve all done it. “Oh no! I lost my (fill in the blank)!” And then we write it off.

Is it because buying a replacement is easier (and more fun) than searching for the old one? Or is it because too many of us assume the worst when something goes missing?

Brenda Chilcott, program coordinator for the Bend Senior Center, says staff members try to identify owners and contact them. But sometimes, even when they call about someone’s wallet, no one comes in to claim it.

The center holds onto stuff for a while, then when they get too much stuff (after about a month or two), they donate the items. Wallets they hang onto for years.

It’s a different story at Juniper, where there’s a whole step-by-step system to the lost and found.

Every item is carefully tagged and then placed into a proper bin or drawer (wet items get washed and dried first). When people come in to claim something, they don’t get to sort through items themselves, but instead have to fill out a short request form.

‘Serial eater’ gets praise, ‘Frontline’: Vaccinations support for eating habits a hot debate still burning Dear Abby: Regarding “Ruminating in Rio Rancho” (Feb. 19), whose wife has an issue with his eating style, I too am a “serial eater,” and I have taken a fair amount of kidding and abuse over it. However, the tactic of claiming it is poor etiquette to shame the eater is a new one to me.

In my experience, people react to serial eating because it is unusual. I can’t explain why I do it, just as I can’t understand why other people feel they must rotate their bites. I just know it works for me, and their method seems as odd to me as mine does to them.

I recall this subject was mentioned years ago in your mother’s column. The writer said as a boy he was teased for eating this way, but an uncle of his had a different take. The uncle said that he had the capacity to become a great success because he did one thing at a time, and finished what he started before moving on.

So, to “Ruminating,” what I advise is: Use your silverware, chew with your mouth closed, and compliment the chef. Tell her/him that each dish is so good that you don’t want to dilute the taste, which would hamper your enjoyment.

— Finishing What I Start In Raleigh, N.C. Dear Finishing: My readers agree unanimously that a person’s eating habits are a matter of personal choice and “Ruminating’s” wife should resist the urge to be such a control freak.

Read on: Dear Abby: Eating one por-

DEAR ABBY “Tell her/him that each dish is so good that you don’t want to dilute the taste, which would hamper your enjoyment.” tion at a time is not uncommon.

During a home-cooked meal in Thailand, I made the mistake of taking a little from each platter and eating a bit of each one in rotation.

My host informed me that in his country one takes a serving from one platter, eats it, and then takes another serving from another, etc.

There is no universal standard for proper etiquette. Customs vary from family to family and country to country. To establish their family “standards,” the couple should discuss and do what they decide. At any meal, I follow my host’s lead and then I am always correct.

— Polite In Any Company, Dwayne Ozewalla, Ph.D. Dear Abby: It is actually proper to rotate selections of food on your dinner plate. A good chef plans meals so that the taste of each selection complements the other, and the polite diner acknowledges each one. It’s the second-best “gratuity” a chef can receive. Those who formed the habit of eating one item at a time were introduced to this style of eating by their mothers

By Neil Genzlinger — who opened one jar of baby food, fed their infant from that, then closed the jar and fed them from the next jar.

— Keith From Houston Dear Abby: “Ruminating” eats the way some dietitians recommend: protein first, vegetables second, starch last. That’s the healthiest way to eat, especially if you are trying to watch what you eat.

— Dana From Katy, Texas Dear Abby: Do as I do, and take your eating to the next level.

Instead of just consuming every item completely before moving to the next, try eating alphabetically ... mashed potatoes, meatloaf, then your peas.

— Organized In Utah Dear Abby: My husband eats his least-favorite thing first and ends with his favorite. This was incorporated as a young boy to make sure he cleaned his plate.

I suggested as an option that he eat his favorite first and then, when he gets full, he will stop eating, instead of always cleaning his plate. He has lost a few pounds in the process.

— Wife Of Husband From The Clean Plate Club Dear Abby: Does “Ruminating” know he shares the same style of eating as Albert Einstein? This natural habit is a sign of genius.

— Shirley In Brookfield, Wis. Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.dearabby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

New York Times News Service

“The Vaccine War,” a look at the debate that has been raging for years over the safety of, and necessity for, childhood vaccinations, has only a few moments that might be illuminating to those who have been following this now familiar controversy.

One comes near the end of the program, a “Frontline” report tonight on PBS. Dr. Jim Shames, a public health official in Jackson County, Ore., is having a discussion — a calm, civilized discussion, lovely to see in this age and on this hot-button topic — with some women who have chosen not to vaccinate their children.

He asks them whether they feel any broader responsibility to the community. For instance, what if their unvaccinated child contracted a disease and then passed it on to a vulnerable newborn too young to have been vaccinated yet? And the women, though staying firm in their beliefs, seem to get just a little bit stuttery, as if confronting something they didn’t really want to think about.

Much of the program is taken up with a rehashing of how the battle lines came to be drawn on this issue: suspicions by parents when autism and other problems seem to descend on their children right after vaccination; the now discredited 1998 research paper published by The Lancet linking

Broadcast notes “Frontline: The Vaccine War” O n PBS stations tonight (check local listings).

Produced by “Frontline” with the Palfreman Film Group.

The shouting continues, occasionally in demonstrations, but 24 hours a day on the Internet. And the Internet, as the program points out, is the reason that vaccines will never be

fully exonerated, no matter how many studies clear them.

“The original myths are still there, and they’re hard to counteract,” Dr. Cynthia Cristofani, a pediatric specialist in Oregon, says. “Conspiracy theories tend to be popular, and it’s hard to undo that kind of damage.”

Whichever side is right, that moment between Shames and the mothers who don’t have their children vaccinated reveals that beneath the heated do-they-ordon’t-they words about vaccines themselves, there’s a more delicate question that no scientific study can answer.

It involves whether parents’ rights to make choices about their children trump the needs of the community. You reach the end of this program wishing for a little less of what you already knew and a little more of the thoughtful discussion between Shames and the mothers on this important point.

Why so little love for the Midwest on TV?

By Neal Justin Star Tribune (Minneapolis)

MINNEAPOLIS — Mary Richards convinced a generation of young female viewers that they could make it after all. Unfortunately, she couldn’t convince TV executives to make a serious commitment to Minnesota. “The Mary Tyler Moore Show” is one of just a half-dozen network series to be set in the state — and its Midwest neighbors haven’t fared much better. For every “Roseanne,” set in a bluer-thanblue-collar town in Illinois, there are a hundred shows that seem to believe the world revolves around Los Angeles coffee shops or New York City courtrooms.

“From my personal experience, networks have always steered projects towards one of those two cities, because executives wanted to be perceived as hip rock stars,” said Minneapolis resident Matt Goldman, who has written for “Seinfeld,” “Ellen” and “The New Adventures of Old Christine.”

But there are signs that the industry is more willing than ever to descend into “flyover land.”

ABC’s “Happy Town,” debuting Wednesday, takes place in a small Minnesota burg facing a serial killer more threatening than subzero temperatures and bloodthirsty mosquitoes. Both NBC’s “Parks and Recreation” and ABC’s “The Middle” are set in small-town Indiana, where the gourmet restaurants boast allyou-can-eat buffets.

“The Big C,” which is on Showtime’s fall slate, stars Oscar nominee Laura Linney as a Twin Cities suburbanite diagnosed with cancer. Shondaland, the production company behind “Grey’s Anatomy” and “Private Practice,” is considering a series about Minneapolis police officers, and Lucinda Winter, executive director of the Minnesota Film and TV Board, said two sitcoms — one about a fertility clinic, the other about a popular bar — are be-

ing developed with our state as a setting.

As for Goldman, he’s currently pitching a one-hour drama about an indie-rock band based in — you betcha! — Minnesota.

But for a lot of Hollywood writers, the Midwest is about as foreign as Azerbaijan. Steven Levitan, co-creator of ABC’s runaway hit “Modern Family,” said he was tempted to set the sitcom far away from Los Angeles, but ultimately decided to stick with what he knows.

“We were always concerned that if you set your show in L.A., you might alienate part of the country, but we’re living here and the show is really about our lives,” Levitan said. “My attitude is, embrace it.” It also eliminates a potential production nightmare. “If you’ve suddenly got to put Colorado license plates on everything and wipe out palm trees from a shot, it can be a disaster,” he said.

Other producers are more than willing to put up with the hassles, hoping they can reach a wider, more mainstream audience.

Scott Rosenberg and Josh Applebaum, the team behind “Happy Town,” blame the failure of their last series, “Life on Mars,” not on its tricky time-traveling premise, but on the fact that it took place in New York.

“One of the things we were intent on this time around was to set the show where most of the country lives, rather than where we live,” Applebaum said.

Emmy-winner Patricia Heaton, who plays a beleaguered mother on “The Middle,” said the Indiana setting has played a significant role in her sitcom’s success.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Tuesday, April 27, 2010: This year, you advance a key project or goal. The going might not always be smooth, but it’s worthwhile.

Others demand more attention.

Your ability to concentrate (despite yourself) could make or break you. A partner pulls in close later today. A one-on-one chat makes both of you a little uncomfortable.

Tonight: Dinner for two.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHH Dive into the job at hand. Complete paperwork and make key calls. If you are feeling overwhelmed, ask for some support. A boss might be messing up a project with his or her vagueness. You need to add clarity. Tonight: So many options.

What would you like to do?

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

HHHHH Allow your good mood and fun style to infuse a boring job or project with new enthusiasm. You might be seeing a situation through very different eyes than others. Prepare to spell out this perspective as if you were speaking to a child. Tonight: Squeeze in a walk or a visit to the gym.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Getting going could be difficult, especially as home is where you most like to be. If you are feeling tired or pushed, go easy on yourself. If possible, start work late. Midafternoon, you return to your energetic self. Tonight: A late dinner.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Make calls and schedule meetings early. Late afternoon, you will want to reflect on what you have heard. Some of you will close your door simply to be able to concentrate and clear out a project. A friend wants your attention. Tonight: Bring extra work home.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHH Take a hard look at a business deal or an expenditure.

Make sure it is worth the costs.

You have an idea of what you will receive, but the reality could be quite different. Initiate an important conversation late in the day. Tonight: Run an errand first.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Plunge into work, but understand that although you see the logic of a situation, you might need to spell it out to an associate who has a different thought process. Get down to

brass tacks later today. Tonight: Buy a card or token of affection.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH Take your time revealing your idea. Thoughts that race through your mind are intensely personal. You might wonder if you can focus on the job at hand. You can and will late this afternoon. Tonight: Feeling better.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHH Keep your eye on the big picture. Your mind drifts with ease as it spins out new ideas. Take your time nailing down each detail of a plan. Think positively. Tonight: Much-needed personal time.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH Take on a challenge dutifully, and work with it. You might see a lot more money involved than you thought possible. Meetings later today help you nail down details. Ask an associate for some feedback.

Tonight: Where the action is.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH Meetings might be more important than you originally thought. You are doing quite a juggling act as you work with one partner while trying to visualize and incorporate innovation. Make a call to a loved one at lunchtime.

Tonight: A force to be dealt with.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHHH A partner demands a lot of your attention, feedback and answers. Though you might be uncomfortable, you do what is needed. Late afternoon, study alternatives to a problem.

Is American Sign Language a foreign language?

Experts argue whether it meets qualifications

By Angie Leventis Lourgos Chicago Tribune

CHICAGO — Twenty students are holding several animated small-group discussions, but no one in this Northern Illinois University classroom utters a word.

Their fingers weave in complex patterns as they converse in American Sign Language, which the university has declared an official foreign language.

To the students, the new label is fitting: They say that American Sign Language is distinct from spoken English and that its coursework provides a new perspective akin to the cultural immersion they’d experience in French, Spanish or other traditional language classes.

“It shapes how you view the world around you,” said Christine Theobold, a sophomore from Streamwood, Ill., who is taking the most advanced sign class at NIU. “I guess it’s how you view the word ‘foreign.’ “ But the practice of awarding foreign language credit for American Sign Language coursework has been fiercely debated at universities across the country. Some educators argue an indigenous language by definition can’t be considered foreign. Others say a language must have literature for proper study.

The University of MichiganFlint several years ago denied a student’s request of foreign language credit for American Sign Language proficiency, but the school reversed its stance in the past year after about 14 months of debate. Students at Boston University are now able to apply American Sign Language credits in this manner, but for years some school officials were against the practice because they said it lacked the same elements of culture as other foreign language courses.

“It’s not a foreign language,” said Robert Belka, a former chair of the foreign language department at Weber State University in Ogden, Utah. Belka, who is now retired, long opposed requests for American Sign to count as a foreign language, though he said the university

eventually acquiesced.

“These are people ... dependent on the English language,” he said. American Sign Language “is not sufficient to sustain a culture.”

The Pizza Hut at NIU is loud during dinnertime, but one table of two dozen students is conspicuously quiet. The patrons don’t speak. They order by pointing at the menu.

This is a “silent dinner,” one of many extracurricular events American Sign Language students attend for additional practice. Their instructor Sara Bianco, who is deaf, said these events give students a taste of deaf culture.

Kelsey Borg, a sophomore from Maple Park, Ill., is in the beginning American Sign Language class and described her first silent dinner as a bit nerveracking. Signing felt different in public and she became lost when more advanced students had intricate conversations, she said.

Other disciplines NIU has offered American Sign Language since the 1970s as part of its rehabilitation counseling program, mainly for students in that program. But lately more students from other disciplines have asked to enroll because the skill is marketable in fields like teaching and health care.

This semester, 155 students there are taking American Sign Language, about three times the enrollment in spring 2005.

Vice Provost Gip Seaver said reclassifying the discipline as a foreign language wasn’t controversial at NIU, in part because it has been accepted at so many other universities.

The Illinois General Assembly in 2009 passed legislation declaring American Sign Language a fully developed language and encouraged schools to accept its coursework for foreign language credit.

Southern Illinois University at Carbondale and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign allowed this long before the legislation was passed.

Eastern Illinois University accepts it as long as course work includes a cultural component, said Stephen Canfield, chairman of the foreign language department there.

He notes that many foreign language departments across the country are altering their names

Arthur Wagoner, 22, a senior, left, signs with classmate Krista Springer, 22, a junior, during their American Sign Language 4 class at Northern Illinois University in DeKalb, Ill., in March. to “world languages” or “classical and modern languages.”

“The whole idea of language being foreign is kind of disappearing,” he said.

Different grammar “APPEAR tooth equals PAIN BAD DENTIST GO NEED” This is written in gloss, a transcription of American Sign Language, and essentially means, “It seems I have a toothache; I need to go to a dentist.”

While the sentence seems convoluted to most people who can hear, it makes sense to Joe Lellman, an NIU senior from Buffalo Grove, Ill. He uses the sentence to show how different American Sign Language grammar is compared with spoken English.

Lellman is considered legally deaf, but with a hearing aid, he can hear about two-thirds as well as the average hearing person. He was taught in a deaf school until third grade, when he entered regular public school.

Though he continues to think in American Sign Language, he lost many of his signing skills and is now relearning much of the language at NIU — and embracing a part of himself that was lost.

American Sign Language is the fourth-most studied language other than English at col-

‘Locked’ up: Hair style can indicate social, religious or fashion choice

By Chuck Barney Contra Costa Times

WALNUT CREEK, Calif. — Crystal Bowersox rocks, it’s plain to see. The folksy guitar-slinger from rural Ohio has thus far dominated this lackluster season of “American Idol” with her vocal prowess and easygoing stage presence.

So why, then, are so many people hung up on her hair?

Via blogs and messages boards, fans have issued proclamations on the long, blonde, ropelike dreadlocks that Bowersox, 24, sports.

Some love them, but some deride them with a passion.

Venomous adjectives such as “dirty, filthy, and trashy” have been used to describe them. “(They’re) ugly and make her look cheap,” insisted one poster. She’s a “fake sister,” claimed another, referring to the fact that dreadlocks are mostly associated with black hair.

All this vitriol underscores the many stigmas and stereotypes attached to a hairstyle that dates back to ancient Egypt and, more recently, is often associated with reggae artist Bob Marley, a member of the Rastafari movement.

But even though such mainstream celebrities as Whoopi Goldberg, singers Lenny Kravitz and Adam Duritz, baseball star Manny Ramirez and author Alice Walker, have sprouted dreadlocks through the years, it’s a hairstyle that remains highly misunderstood.

“I can’t tell you how many people have approached me trying to buy, sell, or give me pot,” says Ludovic Blain, a Berkeley resident who has worn dreadlocks for 14 years. “And I don’t smoke anything.”

Although he believes his thick tresses have gained more acceptance in recent years, Blain, who has a Cornell University education and an administrative position, has seen them provoke false perceptions in job interviews and

Michelle Robinson, owner of Naturally Yours Hair Care, “re-twists” in a client’s new hair growth earlier this month in Oakland, Calif. some social circles.

“People struggle to fit me in a box, especially when I leave a major metropolitan area,” he says. “Am I a radical? Am I homeless? Lazy? ... At this point, I just chuckle.”

Jason Howard can relate. The 36-year-old Oakland, Calif., professional recently hosted his mother, who flew in from North Carolina for a visit. She took one look at her son’s cascade of robust dreadlocks and pulled him aside to ask if he was involved with drugs and gangs.

“I explained to her that my hair hasn’t changed me as a person,” he says. “It just fits my persona, and I feel it looks good on me.”

Loretta Green-Williams, 56, and Jordan Aiken, 23, have their own tales of dreadlocks woe.

Green-Williams, a Pittsburg, Calif., resident, notices how people “talk down” to her and question her intellect — never mind that she holds a master’s degree from University of San Francisco. Aiken, a recent graduate of UC Berkeley, recalls how sororities and certain clubs shunned her.

“Before I had dreadlocks, I remember being approached by lots

of campus (recruiters),” she says.

“Afterward, they would just smile and let me walk on by without handing me their fliers. ... They probably didn’t think I fit into their demographic.”

Like others who favor dreadlocks, Aiken has seen them arouse curiosity in friends and strangers. She has also dealt with what might be the biggest misconception about dreadlocks: that they’re the unclean, unkempt byproduct of neglect.

“They’re not dirty. I wash my hair. I really do,” she says, laughing. “No one ever says they smell bad or anything.”

Indeed, Michelle Robinson, who specializes in “locking” (or knitting) hair in her Oakland salon, Naturally Yours, insists that the hairstyle actually can be very high maintenance with some dreadheads spending several hours a week on grooming and upkeep.

“There’s a lot of ignorance out there. What we’re basically talking about is just a larger strand of hair,” says Robinson, who prefers to drop the word “dread” from the term.

“It’s not dreadful. It’s clean and beautiful,” she stresses.

At least 150 postsecondary schools offer it for foreign language credit, said Sherman Wilcox, chair of the department of linguistics at the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque.

He said it’s no less a foreign language than Navajo, which is also indigenous to the United States.

He adds that most languages around the world, including many African languages, lack a written component.

Lost Continued from E1 “It’s organized because it has to be,” said Sarah Romish, assistant manager. Most of the stuff ends up being donated.

The same is true at McMenamins Old St. Francis School. “Everywhere, every day we get something,” said hotel manager Free Star Yost. After 30 days, the beanies, glasses and jackets are given away. She thinks about one-third of items end up returned to their owners.

“We take it very seriously,” said Yost.

Sometimes people call up to ask about an item and they are pessimistic. They are assuming the item is gone and no one turned in their wallet or iPhone or camera or jacket. And when she can tell them the item is there, “they can’t believe someone turned it in.”

All these bins and drawers and safes and shelves filled with our stuff demonstrate how easy it is for something to get lost. Getting found?

Turns out that’s a little harder.

Lamb: No special occasion required

By Liz Douville For The Bulletin

Mother’s Day is just a page away on your calendar. May 9, to be exact. This reminder may seem a little premature, but it isn’t if you have the creative spirit.

Granted, breakfast in bed can be a total luxury if you serve others 364 days of the year. But what if you are a mom, or have a mom, who likes to jump out of bed and seize the day? A linen napkinlined tray complete with rosebud and croissant won’t have much meaning for that mom.

My best Mother’s Day gift was always a day of being able to be lost in landscaping. No kitchen obligations. No fancy dress so I could join hundreds of others waiting to be served lunch or dinner. My day always included a trip to a favorite nursery to buy a shrub. Over the years and through several jobrelated moves, we have left many botanical tributes to Mother’s Day in gardens that others now enjoy.

I often wish I would have left a message behind as to the origin of those plants and shrubs.

You don’t need to wait for a holiday to serve lamb. This tender, tasty meat makes a great meal for any occasion. When cooked to medium rare, it is flavorful and mild, so anyone who enjoys roast beef will probably also enjoy lamb.

Lamb is popular in Central Oregon year-round, according to area grocery stores. There isn’t a seasonal increase around the holidays, said Randy Yochum, director of perishables at Newport Avenue Market in Bend.

Technically, lamb is the meat from sheep that are less than 1 year old. “Spring lamb” usually comes from sheep from 3 to 5 months old, while “baby lamb” is from milk-fed lambs from 6 to 8 weeks old, according to “The Food Lover’s Companion” by Sharon Tyler and Ron Herbst. The younger the lamb, the more tender the meat. When shopping, look to the color to guide your selection; the darker the color, the older the lamb and the tougher the meat will be, according to the Herbsts.

Nursery excursion

The other red meat Lamb is considered a red meat and is healthy, delicious and tender, said Michael Hammer, meat department associate at Whole Foods in Bend. Lamb contains very little marbling (internal fat throughout the meat) compared with other meats. It is usually available in a variety of different cuts, Hammer said, including the shoulder, rack, shank/breast, loin and leg. The meat can also be ground to make burgers, meatloaf or sauces.

he dog is part of the family. It is the official greeter to all visitors, hangs out with everybody, encourages you to take a walk regularly and provides intangibles too numerous to list. You and the dog are firmly bonded.

But there comes a time, usually about 3 a.m., when dear Fido becomes a real pain because he has to go outside. Being awakened occasionally is to be expected. But when an early-morning pattern starts to emerge, you have two choices: learn to wake up and go back to sleep quickly, or install a dog door.

There is also a daytime convenience consideration. It’s easier for the dog to let itself in and out than it is for you to schedule your day around required outings.

And if there’s a new puppy in the family, the quick exit potential of a pet door may reduce accidents and speed up house training.

Most commercial pet doors are based on an opening in a door or wall with a flap that is fastened at the top. The most popular style of door has plastic flaps with magnets on the bottom, says Jason Perkins, presentation manager at Pet Smart. The flaps make entrance and exit easy for all sizes of animals, while the magnets keep the flap closed until the dog (or cat) needs to push it open.

Let the dogs

As you might guess, my first suggestion for a perfect gift would be a trip to a local nursery — not a gift certificate, but a real excursion with a stop at a coffee shop for a special coffee or tea to sip. It has to be a proper nursery, where you can stroll up and down through rows of plants, pots and creative garden art and not feel rushed to get to the checkout counter before the guy with enough lumber to build his house.

Perhaps you think there is no more room for another shrub, tree or perennial. With all the new varieties each year, how can you not be tempted to squeeze in a budding perennial? Maybe you should remove plant material that seems to be on the down side or never did well. What a great excuse to get rid of it and not feel guilty while creating planting space for a new, healthy plant.

Out One option for people with sliding glass doors is a clear panel with a dog door already in it. The panels fit a standard sliding door frame and are one of the easiest doors to install. The top is springloaded, so all the pet owner has to do is place the panel in the door opening. The panels tend to be the most expensive option, costing about $200.

If it seems like a dog door might be a good idea, read on for some things to consider.

Gardening book I am a big fan of garden author Tracy Disabato-Aust. Her most recent book, “50 High-Impact, LowCare Garden Plants,” was on my Christmas wish list and I am happy to report that I did receive it. It makes for a great companion with a cup of coffee and would make an excellent Mother’s Day gift.

The author’s choices were based on the criteria that the plant should make a statement in multiple seasons because of its longlasting bloom, its color, texture, form or fragrance. Plus, the plant should be somewhat theatrical and have a flair for the dramatic, according to Disabato-Aust. Each plant recommendation is accompanied by a 12-point low-maintenance checklist and suggestions of plants that combine well with that variety.

COVER STORY “Traditionally, if you made a meal with lamb, that was very symbolic. You were sacrificing a young sheep that could grow up and produce meat, wool and breeding stock. If you welcomed someone into the tribe or community with a meal of lamb, that was very special.”

Grilled leg of lamb with mustard glaze and garlic is served with grilled cauliflower and apples.

Lamb is a tasty, nutritious red meat; it’s not as popular in the U.S. as in some other countries, but local grocery stores say it remains a popular choice here year-round.

— Michael Hammer, Whole Foods in Bend

Lamb Continued from F1

Rich history People have been eating lamb for thousands of years. Sheep have long been a dietary staple as well as a textile source in Asia, Europe, Australia and New Zealand.

During the Middle Ages, farmers learned that sheep constituted one of the most productive crops, providing meat, wool for clothing, skins for parchment and milk for butter and cheese.

“Traditionally, if you made a meal with lamb, that was very symbolic,” Hammer said. “You were sacrificing a young sheep that could grow up and produce meat, wool and breeding stock. If you welcomed someone into the tribe or community with a meal of lamb, that was very special.”

Healthy choice For people intending to eat more healthy food, lamb is a good choice, Hammer said.

“Lamb has about the fat content as bison and in some cuts almost as much as pork,” he said.

“But the fat is easily trimmed off.”

The cost of lamb depends on cut, quality and origin. Locally, costs range from about $14.99 per pound for a seasoned rack of New Zealand spring lamb, $7.99 per pound for a marinated leg of lamb, to about $5 to $6 per pound for lesser cuts. Ground lamb starts at about $5.99 per pound.

Spring lamb sold in Central Oregon generally comes from New Zealand, Yochum said. Regionally raised lamb is available from Imperial Stock Ranch in Shaniko.

Lamb is a good source of pro-

tein, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture; 4 ounces of lamb meat provides more than 60 percent of an adult male’s recommended daily allowance for protein. In addition, lamb is a good source of zinc, which is important for a healthy immune system. A 4-ounce serving of lamb contains 38.3 percent of the recommended daily allowance for zinc.

Despite the great nutritional value, per capita consumption of lamb in the United States is about eight-tenths of a pound per year, according to http://sheep101.info.

New Zealand has the highest consumption per capita, with 57 pounds per year, followed by Australia, with 30 pounds.

Cooking options If you’re trying lamb for the first time, Hammer suggests getting a rack of lamb (a roast of ribs and attached meat) and grilling it.

“Cook it until it is still slightly rare,” he advises. “Then split the ribs, and you’ll end up with what looks like popsicles.”

Another option for those new to lamb is to try a boneless, or butterflied, leg roast.

But when it comes to enjoying lamb, Yochum said, it seems as though consumers end up with some strong opinions.

“Some of the Korean War veterans, or the people from that age group who served in the military during the 1950s and ’60s, won’t even try lamb,” Yochum said.

“They were fed a lot of mutton in Korea, which came from the older adult sheep, and it was supposedly pretty bad. But people who try lamb usually say it’s mild. It seems like you either love lamb or don’t care for it at all.”

vor without a lot of extra fat.

To pound a chicken breast thin, place breasts smooth-side down on a large sheet of plastic wrap, then cover with another sheet.

Pound until the breast is the same thickness from end to end.

This tip comes from “The Joy of Cooking’s All About Chicken” (Scribner) by Irma S. Rombauer, Ethan Becker and Marion Rombauer Becker: “With chicken breasts, the handsomest side goes into the pan first.”

The pan and the fat must be hot enough that the chicken does not stick; at low heat, the chicken dries out. Do not crowd breasts, or they will steam rather than brown.

Also: Swapping brown rice for white rice is a smart way to add whole grains to the meal.

1 (1-inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled 1 ⁄3 C flat-leaf Italian parsley 1 ⁄3 C fresh mint leaves 2 TBS olive oil, divided ¼ C rice vinegar 1 tsp sesame oil 2 tsp honey ½ tsp ground coriander Salt and pepper to taste 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts 1 red bell pepper, cut into thin strips 2 C cooked brown rice Place ginger, parsley and mint leaves in the work bowl of a food processor. Process to chop ginger and herbs. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil, rice vinegar, sesame oil, honey and coriander.

Process to blend. Salt and pepper to taste; set aside.

Pound chicken breasts until thin and even.

Heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in large nonstick skillet. Cook chicken over medium-high heat 4 minutes on each side or until done. Remove chicken to cutting board and allow to rest for a few minutes.

Meanwhile cook red pepper in skillet until crisp tender; about 2 to 3 minutes, stirring frequently.

Transfer peppers to a medium bowl. Cut chicken into thin strips and add to peppers. Pour herb mixture over chicken and peppers; toss gently to coat. Serve over rice.

Chicken and Pepper Sauté With Ginger-Herb Sauce is a quick and tasty way to add flavor without a lot of extra fat to boneless, skinless chicken breasts.

SIMPLE BANANA PUDDING

McClatchy-Tribune News Service

2 large boxes instant vanilla pudding Milk to prepare pudding About ½ C sour cream Frozen whipped topping, thawed, divided 6 ripe bananas 2 (12-oz) boxes vanilla wafers

Wendy Yang / Charlotte Observer

Craving banana pudding with no time to spare? This simple banana pudding recipe makes it easy with instant vanilla pudding mix.

Prepare the pudding in a large mixing bowl, using the amount of milk called for on the box. Using a wide rubber spatula, fold in the sour cream and ½ C whipped topping until no white remains.

Peel bananas and slice in rounds. Gently stir banana rounds into the pudding.

Place a layer of vanilla wafers on the bottom of a serving bowl.

Top with about half the pudding and bananas. Top with another layer of vanilla wafers. Top with remaining pudding and bananas.

Spread remaining whipped topping over the top. Refrigerate until chilled. Serve cold.

BEST-EVER BANANA PUDDING 1½ C light brown sugar, packed 2 TBS all-purpose flour ¾ C water

1 (11- or 12-oz) can evaporated milk, shaken well 3 eggs 1 ⁄8 tsp salt

Topping: Whipped topping, 2 cups heavy cream beaten with 2 tablespoons powdered sugar, or about 1 cup vanilla wafer crumbs Whisk together brown sugar, flour, evaporated milk, water, eggs, salt and vanilla in a heavy saucepan or the top of a double boiler over a little simmering water. Add butter and cook over medium heat, stirring, until the butter melts.

Reduce heat to low and cook slowly, stirring often, until the mixture thickens and just starts to look

a little curdled. Remove from heat and cool slightly.

Place a layer of vanilla wafers in the bottom of a 13-by-9-inch glass baking dish. Slice the bananas into rounds and place a layer of rounds on top of the wafers. Top with about half the pudding mixture, spreading to completely seal the wafers and bananas. Repeat layers, ending with pudding. Refrigerate until chilled.

Top with whipped topping, sweetened whipped cream or cookie crumbs.

¼ C achiote oil or olive oil 2 chickens, cut up 1 tsp salt Freshly ground pepper 1 C prepared sofrito ½ C chopped pimientostuffed olives 1 tsp ground cumin Pinch ground cloves 4 C long-grain white rice 6 C chicken broth, as needed 2 lg bottled roasted red peppers, cut in ¼-inch strips Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Season chicken with half of the salt and pepper to taste. Place chicken pieces, in batches, skin-side down in the Dutch oven; cook, turning as needed, until well browned, about 10 minutes. Remove to a platter.

Add sofrito and olives to pot.

Season with remaining salt and pepper to taste. Raise heat to medium high; cook until liquid has evaporated. Stir in cumin, cloves and rice. Return chicken to pot. Pour in broth to cover rice by 1 inch. Heat to a boil; cook over high heat until liquid level reaches top of the rice, about 5 minutes.

Reduce heat to low. Cover; cook until liquid is absorbed, rice is tender but firm and chicken is cooked through, 1520 minutes. Fluff rice with fork.

Garnish with roasted pepper strips.

And vegetables? They deliver color and texture. Smith likes to add chopped kale to a onepot meal, letting it steam on top of the other simmering ingredients before stirring it in. “It’s OK to have a little crunch.”

A one-pot meal is also, she said, “about creativity and not being afraid to try things.”

TV chefs toss pots here, skillets there. Saucepans bubble up on several burners. It’s drama! It’s intense!

It’s the foodie equivalent of “24.”

It’s not your reality. You don’t need all those dishes, all that drama, all those pans to scrub — all those exclamation points.

You need a great one-pot meal. Most require nothing more than a knife, a cutting board, plus a good-size pot with a lid, perhaps a Dutch oven of enamel-glazed iron or a deep skillet. And with one pot, you’ll use only one burner on the stove (read: less energy) and have fewer dishes to do (read: less soap and water).

Quite a few classic dishes are one-pot wonders, from beef stew and its wine-kissed sibling boeuf bourguignon on through cioppino, jambalaya and sancocho.

A good one-pot meal has several elements: a protein (meat, fish, tofu), aromatics (onions, garlic, herbs, spices), vegetables and a starch (potatoes, rice, grains or pasta).

Well made, it boasts balanced flavors and a variety of textures. To get there, maximize flavors, minimize effort and don’t overcook the vegetables.

The Food Network’s Daisy Martinez maximizes the flavors of ingredients by gently browning elements of a dish before combining them.

“I always brown the protein first because that coaxes out flavor,” she said. “The caramelization on the surface adds another nuance of flavor to whatever it is that you’re cooking.”

That initial browning of elements such as proteins and aromatics also is the way restaurateur and lifestyle maven Barbara Smith begins a one-pot meal, even when she starts with tofu.

“Tofu doesn’t have much flavor, but you can crisp it up a bit, then take it out of the pot before adding your other flavors,” she said. She then returns the tofu at the end of cooking time.

The starch element, whether potatoes, rice or a grain, is important not only for the body it adds to the dish, but also, when the starch is released, for providing “a nice glossiness and

Don’t be intimidated by pad Thai from scratch. While a couple of the ingredients might not be familiar, it’s essentially a stir-fry, and it can be on the table in less than a half hour.

A Southern favorite that can be enjoyed anywhere: Bring on the banana pudding CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A summer Sunday food memory, circa 1974: I’m sitting at the table watching while my mother makes banana pudding and my older sister discusses her latest date.

One talks about the frustrations of romance. The other listens, nodding, while patiently, steadily, assembling dessert.

Lining the casserole dish with vanilla wafers from a box. Slicing bananas and placing the circles just so. Spooning on a layer of vanilla-flavored pudding.

Building the layers until the casserole is full, then covering it with a final layer of fluffy, white whipped topping.

The whole thing goes in the refrigerator to wait until supper, while the wafers soften into cakelike layers and the banana flavor tinges both pudding and cookies, melding into something that will be cool and sweet on a hot night.

Watching them, I absorb a little about dating and a little about listening, and a lot about taking time for both comfort and desserts.

Recently, I set out to explore banana pudding. I looked into instant puddings vs. homemade custards, into vanilla wafers vs. fancier fillers like pound cake or ladyfingers.

I tried meringue toppings, whipped toppings and simple sprinklings of crushed cookies.

I fell in love with the banana pudding at Savor Cafe in Charlotte, N.C., where Lori Pearson’s vanilla wafers are homemade and the perfectly browned meringue is an impossibly smooth marshmallow creme.

In the last 20 years or so, pad Thai has gone from being virtually unknown in this country to being a restaurant and takeout staple. It’s easy to see why: The tangy, crunchy, slightly sweet noodle dish is irresistible. But it’s difficult to understand why more people don’t make it at home, since pad Thai is essentially a stir-fry (in Thailand they refer to it as a Chinese noodle dish). It requires little more than chopping and stirring, and comes together in less than a half hour.

A couple of components might be unfamiliar to you. The first are the noodles themselves: rice stick noodles, which are pale, translucent, flat and range from very thin to more than a quarter-inch wide.

Unlike semolina pasta, rice stick noodles don’t need to be boiled; instead, you soak them in hot water until they’re tender.

Meanwhile, make a sauce from tamarind paste, easily found these days. The paste, made from the pulp of the tamarind pod, is very sour, but more complex than citrus.

Fish sauce (nam pla) is another important ingredient; made from fermented anchovies (and much like the garum of ancient Rome), it has an unappealing smell and a fabulous taste.

Honey and rice vinegar round things out.

Other ingredients are pretty flexible: Bean sprouts are usual and cabbage is nice, but other vegetables are perfectly acceptable. As for protein, shrimp and tofu are the most common combination, but you could also use chicken, or just another egg.

When the noodles have soaked and the sauce is assembled, all that remains is stir-frying, so easy and fast that pad Thai could become a fromscratch favorite.

H Getting rid of ants can be a challenge

A timeless look, quarried in Italy

COVER STORY

Marble can be pricey, but there are cost-conscious ways to utilize it

By Karen Youso (Minneapolis) Star Tribune

Q:

I have several large ant hills on my property.

Two are in a wooded area; the other is in a flower bed by a small pine tree. I have tried many products that have been suggested by local lawn and garden stores, but nothing has worked. In fact, the ant hills seem to be getting larger. Any recommendations?

Ants are ubiquitous, making insecticide control only temporary. You probably can’t rid your yard of the ants permanently. New ones will recolonize the nests after the insecticide residue dissipates.

And you wouldn’t want them gone, anyway. Ants are part of the ecosystem, feeding on other insects and invertebrates. Only destroy those hills that present real nuisances.

Target that one with an insecticide labeled for ants. Or try the hot-water folk remedy.

Some people swear by it. Pour a quart of boiling water slowly into the middle of the ant hill.

Do this three times in one day, then once a day for three days after that.

If that doesn’t work, consider moving the flower bed.

Q:

I’ve become the owner of vintage Wearever cookie sheets that have been in regular use since 1919. They are yellowed and have blackened areas along the edges and corners. How do I clean them up?

If cookie sheets are not cleaned thoroughly after use, areas not covered by cookies but coated with shortening will build up those deposits.

You can simmer the pan (a half sheet at a time) in a large pot for five to 10 minutes in a solution of 1 tablespoon of cream of tartar to a quart of water. After this treatment, scour the sheets with a steel-wool soap pad.

DOORS WITHIN DOORS Pet doors can be installed in wood doors, left, and sliding glass doors, above. Most are based on an opening in a door or wall with a flap that is fastened at the top. Pet doors should be sized so the top of the opening is about 1 to 1.5 inches higher than the top of the dog’s shoulders. (Pet doors can also be installed in walls, but this may require professional assistance.)

Pet door Continued from F1

What kind of door for which kind of pet?

Start with the location of the proposed door. The door should not exit to a street or driveway.

The best location, Perkins says, would be into a fenced yard, where the dog is confined whenever it goes out.

Another consideration is the full-grown size of the pet. That cuddly puppy stage doesn’t last long, and the full-grown dog may not fit through a smaller door.

The pet door should be sized so the top of the opening is about 1 to 1.5 inches higher than the top of the dog’s shoulders, according to Moore Pet Supplies, a pet door manufacturer. This ensures the dog’s back won’t hit as it goes through. The bottom should be low enough so the pet won’t have to step too high. This spacing can be especially important with breeds that may develop arthritis or hip dysplasia, advises Moore Pet Supplies.

For the winter months, Perkins said, you may want a door with a sliding panel that blocks off the cold when needed. The sliding panel can also lock the pet door.

Pet doors are usually sold in the form of install-it-yourself kits,

How to install?

Once you’ve decided on the size and location, the choices narrow down to installing the door in the wall or the door. Each has advantages and problems. Part of the decision rests on who does the installation. Whether you install the pet door yourself or hire a professional, Perkins said, depends on your carpentry skills.

“Some people are intimidated about installing a door in a wall because there might be electrical wiring that need to be changed,” Perkins said. “And in some walls, the entrance might have to be framed in.”

Look before cutting into any door. If the door is made of steel or fiberglass, it may be a good idea to hire a carpenter. He or she will have the heavy-duty saw and specialty blade required to cut through these dense materials.

What about keeping critters out ?

style and size,” says John Tatarelli of JT Decks and Improvements in Elmwood Park, N.J. “Once the job is complete, it (may) be too late to make changes, and if changes can be made, they will be costly.”

Along with cedar and pressuretreated lumber, there are a number of synthetic and composite materials that can look like wood but offer pluses that the natural stuff cannot. These non-wood products do not splinter, warp or rot. They are commonly used and can be seen on some boardwalks at the shore and on park benches.

There even are steel products in the mix to choose from.

to compare apples to apples,” advises Greg DiBernardo of Bergen Decks in Waldwick, N.J. “Otherwise, there is no standard for comparing the estimates they receive.”

DiBernardo says consumers should make sure the contractor is professional in every regard, returns calls promptly and is a deck specialist with thorough knowledge of products, techniques, codes and best practices. Also, ask for recent references from deck customers.

Hiring

Anyone who wants to build a deck themselves will need a permit — along with strong carpentry and masonry skills.

This is not one for the weekend warrior who happened to see a show on TV and thinks that it will be easy.

“A homeowner would need to be extremely skilled, knowledgeable and be fully equipped with specialty tools to construct a safe deck from the ground up,” advises DiBernardo.

Having a helper is important, as two people are needed to place and fasten boards.

Homeowners who demolish an existing deck before a contractor builds a new one can save $750 to $1,000.

“If (homeowners) plan on meeting with more than one contractor, it is extremely important that they ask for identical scopes of work

over the lowly dog door, Perkins said. Some of the former concerns or liabilities of dog doors have been addressed.

For example, there is the fear that stray animals might find their way into the house through the dog door. In particular, raccoons and skunks could wreak havoc on your home’s interior if they got in.

“I’ve heard of stray cats getting in a house through an open pet door,” Perkins said. “But I don’t know of any raccoons or skunks getting in. Besides, there are new doors that eliminate that potential.”

Radio-controlled locks, with the key attached to the pet’s collar, can eliminate unwanted visitors, Perkins said. The radio collar door can have different keys for multiple dogs so there is no danger of unwanted entrance.

If your pet won’t use its new door, open the flap and tape it open. After a few days, lower the flap halfway. Gradually, the pet will figure out that pushing the flap opens it.

Eventually, the pet door may eliminate early-morning comfort calls. It will allow you to slumber in peace, secure in the knowledge that a mess won’t greet you first thing in the morning.

What might the gray-streaked stone atop your heirloom furniture have in common with a public statue?

Both are made of Carrara marble, quarried in Italy and long used in furniture as well as statues and fountains.

“Carrara marble has a timeless look,” Amy Sanders of International Materials of Design says. “It’s not conservative, but it’s not glitzy.”

Carrara is a white marble heavily streaked with small gray veins. Also popular (and roughly three times as expensive) is Calacatta gold, which is a brighter white with fewer (but usually larger) veins of brown, gold or green, depending on where it was quarried.

White marble can bring class to a kitchen, bathroom, fireplace or entryway. Because marble comes in the form of tiles, slabs, mosaics and moldings, homeowners often finish an entire room for a stunning look, Leslie Erickson of Carthage Marble in Kansas City says.

The cost of decking the room can add up quickly, particularly if the fabrication is detailed, but there are cost-conscious ways to add white marble to a home.

“Consider resurfacing small areas that are focal points of a room, like a kitchen island or a coffee or end table,” Erickson says. It’s also common for customers to buy marble to fit a favorite table base and replace a worn or ugly top.

For projects such as tables and even small bathroom vanities and backsplashes, Erickson suggests marble remnants, which can cost less than 40 percent of the original price. For a small vanity, say 2 feet by 4 feet, seek remnants from slab and tiles or mosaics, Erickson says.

Other less expensive options include a sundry tower from Pottery Barn ($399) with a Carrara marble top or a “Carrarastyle” marble table from CB2 ($299; www.cb2.com).

Whatever the use — but particularly in a kitchen or bathroom — be aware that marble is a porous material. Some homeowners seek the look of worn, aged marble because of

its natural beauty, says Katie Gruenewalk of Kitchen Studio in Kansas City, Mo. “But if you want it pristine and perfect, it may not be the right option,” she says.

Care of marble starts with the choice of finish. Polished marble has a vibrant shine, Sue Shinneman of Kitchen Studio says. But acidic foods such as juice or mayonnaise easily etch polished marble, resulting in dull marks. Periodically, you will have to have it sanded down and repolished.

Homeowners can avoid repolishing by having the marble honed or “roughed up” for an antiqued look that will wear better, Shinneman says.

Marble maintenance Advice differs about upkeep and stain-guarding marble, whether it’s polished or honed, but a few tips are universal.

Find out if your marble was treated with a stain-resistant sealant before installation. Have it resealed yearly or as needed (when beads of water absorb easily).

Use a non-ammonia-based cleaner for minor spills. Some experts suggest commercial marble cleaners for tougher stains or a poultice with a baking soda base.

Granite Shield of Kansas City applies an additional marble sealant after installation with a lifetime warranty against stains, but not etching.

A roof leak recurs; source is still a mystery

By Al Heavens The Philadelphia Inquirer

Q:

We’ve had problems with a roof leak on and off for several years. We usually have a roofer reseal around the chimney of our 12-year-old townhouse to deal with the problem. The wet spots were on the second-floor bedroom ceiling. We have now noticed that some moisture might have collected at the base of the fireplace on the first floor, directly under that bedroom, and the area looks a little discolored between the wood trim and the marble base of the fireplace.

Could that be mold? When we were dealing with the water in the bedroom, we had carpet and would also notice some wetness in the carpet. We now have a hardwood floor there so we don’t know what is happening under it.

Why is it so difficult to find where the leak is actually coming from?

First, the mold question.

What is the material between the trim and the marble base that is discoloring? If it is grout, that can discolor. The sun could strike that particular spot more than others, and a change

in color over time could result.

I realize better than most that water finds its way into the least expected places, and that might be a cause of discoloration if moisture from the leak found its way down the wall and into that spot.

Anything is possible.

When I ask the experts how one can discern the presence of mold, the response is typically “smell.” Is there a telltale odor involved here?

Without seeing the spot, my thought is that the cause of discoloration is probably not related to the leak.

Now to that leak. What does the roofer use to reseal the area around the chimney? Could it be that the flashing around the chimney needs to be replaced? If the resealing temporarily halts the leak, it would seem to me that replacing the flashing around the chimney on the roof might stop the leak permanently.

Perhaps a second opinion from another roofer is needed.

Rhododendron species are sweet spring beauties

By Norman Winter

groups. For example, the Southern Indica group is the most popular. I love them, and butterflies do as well. These are large shrubs and are cold hardy to around 10 degrees on average. Popular varieties are Formosa, G.G. Gerbing, Judge Solomon, George Lindley Tabor and Pride of Mobile. The 10-degree range, however, will be a clear indication to northern gardeners to look elsewhere.

McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Nothing can beautify the spring landscape quite like the rhododendron species. I am referring to both azaleas and rhododendrons.

If you consider yourself a novice to these plants, you might find it helpful to know, as someone else once said, all azaleas are rhododendrons, but not all rhododendrons are azaleas.

The flowers of each truly border on the spectacular, and there are so many varieties and hybrids that even the best collector usually comes away feeling humbled, yet longing for more to cure his or her insatiable appetite. There are several native species, too, such as the Rhododendron canescens, called Piedmont azalea, that is found from Pennsylvania to Texas in the west and Florida in the east, and offers beauty coupled with a tantalizing fragrance.

Botanically speaking, you’ll find rhododendrons members of the Ericaceae family, a large group of acid-loving plants. Alkaline soil to this family is like Kryptonite to Superman. What you may find interesting is that other members of the family include Kalmia or mountain laurel, and edibles like the cranberry and blueberry.

What they like Rhododendrons are different from azaleas in that their leaves are large and leathery while azaleas are small and also slightly hairy. Rhododendron’s flowers are usually larger, and are borne on trusses at the ends of branches.

Both rhododendrons and azaleas prefer a soil with a pH around 5.5. When you consider that pH 7 is neutral, then it becomes apparent if you have soil close to 8 then you have your work cut out for you. To be perfectly honest, most would be far happier growing what is native to the region than to attempt soil modification.

Cold friendly

Norman Winter McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Formosa is a deep purple Southern Indica azalea producing large 3-inch flowers.

Your site selection is very important. Woodland settings, where they receive filtered light, are perfect. In addition to being acidic, the soil must be fertile, organic rich and very well-drained. To accomplish this, it is best to plant on raised beds so that when we do get heavy rains, the water drains freely. This is such a critical issue that many experts even suggest planting them high, where the top 1 inch of the rootball is above the soil profile, and loose organic material is added around it.

Azaleas and rhododendrons are very shallow-rooted plants.

Since you are planting high and in loose soil, they are prone to drying out, especially those newly planted. Supplemental water will be needed. Mulch is essential to conserve moisture.

With regard to azaleas, there are so many outstanding varieties it makes it hard to choose the best for your landscape. It is a good idea to spread your selections around using some from several different

Among the most cold-hardy groups of azaleas are Kurumes and Girard hybrids. The Gable hybrids and highly popular Glenn Dale hybrids, of which there are some 400, should also be at the top of the list.

Then there are groups like the Robin Hill hybrids and Satsukis. These are known to be late bloomers. In fact, Satsuki means fifth month in Japanese. If frost knocks out blooms of other selections, these most likely will still have a bloom in April to early May. Even if a late frost doesn’t occur, you have spread your azalea bloom over a longer period.

Gardeners also look for rhododendrons with the same criteria: cold and heat tolerance. Heat tolerance is the limiting factor for the Deep South. Just when I think it can’t be done, however, I’ll find a gardener who has found his location to be just perfect.

Without going into a treatise on varieties, it’s best to visit with your certified local nurseryman or local chapter of American Rhododendron Society about which selections do best in your area.

America (red), Roseum Elegans (lavender), Scintillation (lavender pink) Gomer Waterer (white) and Wheatley (vibrant pink) are a few that have stood the test of time and often found over a wide region.

Spring is a great time to plant.

Why not visit your local garden center this weekend?

NEWPORT NEWS, Va. — Earthworms may soon have their own Facebook fan page if some worm worshippers have their way.

“I had forgotten how good food could taste fresh from the garden until I was experimenting with worm castings and started an organic garden,” says Ron Crum, of Williamsburg, Va. He now raises worms commercially for composting and for bait.

In Yorktown, Va., master gardener Rebecca Cho is also into worms, just on a much smaller scale for personal gardening needs.

“The worms are the most carefree creatures I have ever tended to, only needing food every couple of weeks and fresh newspaper bedding,” she says.

Also in Williamsburg, Gina Ridgway recently launched the WormWatcher, an educational tool for teaching kids about worms and how they enrich soil. It’s a clear box kit that uses 500 red wigglers and kitchen garbage to make compost tea, which drains through a built-in spigot into a container for easy use. The kit is also suitable for home gardeners.

“We all talk about going green, but the worms demonstrate how easy it is to be green, eating two to three pounds of garbage a week,” she says.

Crum’s 300,000 worms have it nice, composting and breeding in 60 box-within-a-box bins he’s created with air holes and a bottom drain spigot.

A stone mason by trade, Crum grew up helping his father raise and sell night crawlers for bait. Some of Crum’s worms become fish bait, but mostly they are kept warm and cozy while they turn a mixture of peat moss and horse manure into worm castings. Gardeners call this form of compost “black gold” because the nutrient-rich castings are far more beneficial to plants that any man-made fertilizer.

“Oh, we’re moving around today,” he says to the worms, reaching into a 27-gallon bin to pull out a handful of red wigglers.

Most worm enthusiasts rely

Sangjib Min / (Newport News, Va.) Daily Press

Ron Crum checks on his composting worms, which he keeps in 60 bins he made himself. “I had forgotten how good food could taste fresh from the garden until I was experimenting with worm castings and started an organic garden,” Crum says.

“We all talk about going green, but the worms demonstrate how easy it is to be green.”

— Gina Ridgway, WormWatcher on red wigglers to do the composting work. Crum, however, likes to mix them with the European night crawlers, which grow as long as 10 inches and bury deep, about 18 inches, in a bin’s mixture. Their holes help aerate the environment for the smaller wigglers, which stay in the top 4 inches of a bin’s media.

Many gardeners also use shredded newspaper to keep their composting worms energized, but Crum prefers cardboard soaked with algae water he collects from an outdoor pond.

“Giving them that cardboard is like adding sugar to my cereal,” he says.

Vermicomposting on this major scale means Crum is constantly creating food sources for the worms. He gets horse manure from nearby stables and uses a concrete mixer to blend it with peat moss. When Halloween is done, his worms love to feast on

rotten, leftover and unwanted pumpkins, so he’s thinking about becoming a recycling collection point for the fruit this fall.

Rebecca Cho’s worms live and work in a plain Rubbermaid bin.

Inspired to recycle food scraps after a worm composting demonstration, she took home a takeout food carton of worms and compost and got started. Her husband drilled small ventilation holes in the lid and top third of the sides of the plastic box.

“Long vacations are worryfree,” Cho says of her new fussfree friends. “If you go away, just open a can of beans — I rinse and crush the beans first.

“When the worms get going, you will be amazed at how quickly they multiply. Once your worm population exceeds your bin, you have fun dividing them among friends or you can release them in your garden.”

“Worm castings can be worked into the soil for almost any type of plant. The best thing is a little goes a long way.”

Virtuous dessert

By Stephanie Witt Sedgwick Special to The Washington Post

Fruit desserts seem virtuous, but butter-laden toppings or heaping helpings can negate healthful aspects. In this recipe, the fat is kept to a minimum, and individual ramekins control portion size.

STRAWBERRY RHUBARB CRUMBLES Makes 8 servings.

1 lb rhubarb, cut into 1 ⁄4 - to 1⁄2 -inch pieces (4 C) 1 lb fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced (about 3 C) 1 ⁄2 tsp almond extract 3 ⁄4 to 1 C sugar 2 TBS cornstarch 1 ⁄4 C quick-cooking or regular plain oatmeal 1 ⁄3 C flour 1 ⁄3 C packed light brown sugar 1 ⁄2 tsp ground cinnamon 3 TBS butter, cubed small Combine the rhubarb, strawberries, almond extract, 3⁄4 C sugar (or 1 C sugar for a less-tart mixture) and the cornstarch. Stir to coat and let sit for 15 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place eight 8-ounce ramekins on a lined baking sheet.

Combine the oatmeal, flour, brown sugar and cinnamon.

Add the butter and use your fingers to mash the mixture into the consistency of fine crumbs.

Fill the ramekins and sprinkle the topping evenly over them.

Bake for 45 to 50 minutes or until the fruit is bubbling and the topping is just starting to brown.

From green to ripe, mangoes do it all Everyday Food With orange or yellow flesh, a fragrant sweet-tart flavor and a silky texture, mangoes are one of the most popular tropical fruits.

Although grown in Florida for more than 100 years, most mangoes sold in the United States come from Mexico and South America.

Mangoes can be enjoyed when ripe and sweet or unripe (“green”) and tart. Choose ripe mangoes that are plump, yield to gentle pressure and have a sweet scent at the stem; they will ripen further if kept at room temperature for a few days.

Refrigerate ripe mangoes for up to three days. Purchase green mangoes that are very hard, and use them before they ripen.

Ripe mangoes are great on their own or tossed with a bit of sugar, lime juice and a pinch of salt. They can be puréed into smoothies, diced and mixed with chiles, onion and cilantro for a zesty salsa, or simmered with vinegar, spices and sugar for a flavorful chutney. Crisp green mangoes can be shredded in salads, pickled or eaten out of your hand with salt.

Mangoes go with: • Chicken, fish, pork • Coconut milk • Ginger • Cilantro • Green chiles • Lime • Cayenne • Rum • Yogurt How to cut a mango: Peel the mango with a sharp vegetable peeler or knife. Stand upright and cut both sides away from the large oblong pit in the center. Dice or cut the flesh into thin slices.

GREEN MANGO SALAD Makes 4 servings.

2 TBS fresh lime juice, plus more to taste 2 TBS fish sauce, plus more to taste 1 tsp sugar, plus more to taste 2 green mangoes, peeled, pitted and cut into thin strips

3 scallions, very thinly sliced 1 ⁄4 C fresh cilantro leaves 1 ⁄4 C fresh mint leaves, chopped 2 TBS chopped peanuts 1 ⁄2 tsp red-pepper flakes

In a large bowl, whisk together lime juice, fish sauce and sugar until sugar dissolves. Add mangoes, scallions, cilantro and mint and toss to coat. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional lime juice, fish sauce and sugar. Top with peanuts and red-pepper flakes.

Making créme fraîche can be a smooth move

By Kathleen Purvis McClatchy -Tribune News Service

Q: A:

Is there a substitute for créme fraîche?

It depends on the recipe.

In some cases, you can use

sour cream, which has a similar consistency. But sour cream is tangier and lacks the creaminess of true créme fraîche.

However, it’s easy to make a version of créme fraîche at

home. There are a couple of ways to do it. You can mix 1 to 2 tablespoons of buttermilk into 1 to 2 cups of heavy cream and heat it over low heat in a saucepan until it thickens. Or

you can mix equal amounts of sour cream and heavy cream — say, ½ cup each — and let it stand at room temperature until it is thickened.

Depending on how warm

your kitchen is, that might take anywhere from several hours to 24 hours. But if you save a couple of tablespoons and add it to the next batch, it will often thicken faster.
