Deschutes sheriff plans to rent beds at Jefferson jail

Student records in limbo Subpoena allegedly blocks information after eviction of charter school company

By Sheila G. Miller and Patrick Cliff The Bulletin

On May 10, state officials showed up at a Clackamas office building, ready to remove student records from a locked office.

EdChoices, a company handling

By Erin Golden A day after Deschutes County voters soundly defeated a proposed $44 million jail expansion bond, Sheriff Larry Blanton told members of the county’s budget committee that he’s looking for other solutions to avoid overcrowding at the jail.

The bond would have doubled the capacity of the current 228-bed facility.

On Wednesday, Blanton said his budget plan for the 2010-11 fiscal year includes $290,000 for the rental of additional beds at the Jefferson County jail.

He said using those beds would be the first step before jail officials return to a process called “matrixing,” in which lower-risk inmates are released to make room for new arrivals.

Samuel Starr rides his bike in his creation, “Circulus 2010,” a miniaturized bicycle track, installed inside Seeley G. Mudd Science Library at Pomona College in Claremont, Calif.

What they learned Undergrads meld studies into practical projects

By Larry Gordon McClatchy-Tribune News Service

LOS ANGELES — Samuel Starr rode in circles to graduate from Pomona College. One thousand, six hundred circles.

To fulfill a college requirement that all seniors complete a research thesis or creative project, the art major and bicycling enthusiast built his own wooden velodrome and then rode its slanted track for up to two hours in public performances. Whipping around the 132-foot circumference in less than five seconds a lap, he clocked about 1,600 circles, or 40 miles, one recent morning and, apart from a sore neck, seemed hardly the worse for wear.

But “Circulus 2010,” which he constructed in an empty library lobby on the Claremont campus, did test his talents in computer design, carpentry and conceptual art, Starr said.

“This is by far the most ambitious, difficult thing I’ve undertaken here, but it’s also brought together all these skill sets I’ve been developing for so long,” said the 25-year-old from Minneapolis, who is considering a career in architecture or design.

Starr’s unorthodox academic project fulfilled a mandate facing seniors at a growing number of colleges across the country.

By requiring what is often called a capstone project or senior thesis, the schools want undergraduates to pull together four years of learning and apply that to a research project or creative challenge.

So at schools like Pomona, biology students are presenting studies about migratory bird populations, history majors are researching medieval crusaders and psychology students are running tests about peer pressure and alcohol consumption.

Such work can add anxiety and, some complain, an unnecessary hurdle on the path to graduation this time of year.

Yet despite the occasional flop, many students and faculty say the projects are worthwhile.

“Increasingly, people want to know what students can do with their learning and how they can apply that learning across all the courses in their college,” said Carol Geary Schneider, president of the Association of American Colleges and Universities, a group devoted to the improvement of undergraduate education.

In addition, she said, colleges want to do a better job of preparing graduating seniors for the demands of the job market and graduate schools. The capstones, she said, help students “become people who can problem-solve and produce something of high quality.”

The National Survey of Student Engagement, which examines college students’ activities annually, shows a steady increase in those completing capstones or senior theses. In 2009, 64 percent of students reported

doing such a project, up from 55 percent from 2000 when the survey began.

Campuswide requirements for the projects are most common at small liberal arts colleges such as Occidental in Eagle Rock, Calif.; Reed in Portland, Ore.; Hampshire in Amherst, Mass.; and Carleton in Northfield, Minn. But many individual departments at big public universities, including UCLA, also require or offer them. About a third of undergraduate majors at UCLA include the projects, officials estimate.

For many years, Pomona College has required various types of capstones, with close faculty supervision. Students working on the projects are expected both to synthesize different courses and “to drill down into a particular field or subject,” said Cecilia Conrad, Pomona’s dean and vice president for academic affairs.

The outcome can be unpredictable, with some top students putting in minimal effort and some previously mediocre students catching fire and doing outstanding projects, Conrad said. Very rarely do students fail to finish in time and then have to skip graduation and complete the work over the summer. Some students frozen with anxiety need “to understand that perfection is not the goal,” she said.

In what felt at times like an intellectual bazaar, students recently presented their projects across Pomona’s campus.

At the biology department, Charlotte Chang explained to classmates and professors how she had compared Canadian and U.S. land-use patterns over 40 years with population counts of a small songbird, the Sprague’s pipit. She found a link between higher populations of the bird and more farmland set aside for nature preserves. Chang estimated that she spent about

five hours a week on the project through the year.

“It’s a lot of work and feels like a big burden to shoulder on top of your regular course work,” said Chang, 21, of Santa Barbara, who will soon start a zoology master’s program at Cambridge University. Yet she praised the project requirement for teaching students that “you have the capacity to do something you didn’t know you could do before.”

For his capstone, history major Fowler Brown wrote a 116-page paper about Reynald of Chatillon, a 12th century crusader considered a martyr by some and a mass murderer by others.

Brown, who speaks Latin, translated rare documents for the project and said he spent 10 to 15 hours a week on it since the fall.

Such papers, he said, are “a chance to do something creative, which is not always the case in other classes.” It also looks good on resumes, said Brown, 21, of Phoenix, who will attend law school at the University of Chicago in the fall.

Catherine Berheide, a Skidmore College sociology professor who has studied senior projects nationwide, said their increased adoption reflects, among other things, more focus on preparing graduates for what’s ahead. “The capstone is a transitional experience,” she said. “If we want to turn them out into the world or into graduate school, we want to know they are ready to take that next step.”

Starr, however, said he thinks of the projects in a different way. Resting after two hours of circling his plywood track, the young cyclist and artist said capstones can be a final taste of collegiate liberty.

“Projects like this are a great opportunity to be your own boss and have the support to do it before you have to start working for someone else,” he said.

ORLANDO, Fla. — Florida education leaders backed off a plan to drastically limit sugarladen drinks in Florida public schools this week, after objections from the dairy and beverage industries, and local school districts.

The state Board of Education tabled the proposal that had been developed over several months at the urging of John R. Padget, who accused his colleagues on the board of bending to industry pressure.

“I congratulate the (state Department of Education) for coming up with a very far-reaching, groundbreaking proposal,” said Padget, a former schools superintendent in Monroe County. “I’m disappointed we couldn’t get more support at this juncture.”

Padget had wanted to ban a host of beverages that are high in calories and sugar — including chocolate milk and some juice drinks. If the board had approved the idea, schools would have been limited to offering bottled water, flavored water, pure juice and white, low-fat milk.

Representatives of the dairy and soft-drink industries who addressed the board Tuesday said there was no reason for Florida to impose these restrictions, partly because the federal government is already planning to update its child-nutrition

guidelines later this year.

But Padget, of Key West, said he wanted Florida be a leader in attacking the childhood-obesity epidemic. He said the issue isn’t going away.

Fellow board member Roberto Martinez, who didn’t vote because he left the meeting early to catch a flight, said he also wants to see the issue explored further.

Padget said he was motivated by the alarming growth in the obesity rate among children in the U.S. Experts often cite drinks high in sugar — in addition to fatty and other unhealthy foods — as one of the main culprits behind the increase in Type 2 diabetes and obesity in children and adults.

High schools, however, would have been able to offer some other drinks as long as they didn’t exceed 10 calories and 30 milligrams of caffeine per serving and met some other standards. Student athletes would have been able to drink some of the lower-calorie sports drinks immediately before, during and after practices and games.

School districts objected strenuously to Padget’s plan.

Their primary concern: losing chocolate milk.

Cafeteria managers statewide argued that kids would stop drinking milk altogether if their favorite flavors were removed.

Children overwhelmingly pick chocolate milk when given a choice. But some also prefer vanilla and strawberry milk.

T S Scientists blast Bloody end brought to protest U.S. response to gulf oil spill RIOTS IN THAILAND

Poypiti Amatatham and Mariko Takayasu

New York Times News Service

By Justin Gillis New York Times News Service

Tensions between the Obama administration and the scientific community over the gulf oil spill are escalating, with prominent oceanographers accusing the government of failing to conduct an adequate scientific analysis of the damage and of allowing BP to obscure the spill’s true scope.

The scientists assert that the National Oceanic and Atmospheric “It seems baffling Administration and that we don’t other agencies have been slow to investi- know how much gate the scope of the oil is being spill and the damage it is causing in the deep spilled. It seems ocean. baffling that we They are especially concerned about get- don’t know where ting a better handle on the oil is in the problems that may be water column.” occurring from large plumes of oil drop- — Sylvia Earle, lets that appear to be oceanographer spreading beneath the ocean surface.

The scientists point out that in the month since the Deepwater Horizon oil rig exploded, the government has failed to make public a single test result on water from the deep ocean. And the scientists say the administration has been too reluctant to demand an accurate analysis of how many gallons of oil are flowing into the sea from the gushing oil well.

“It seems baffling that we don’t know how much oil is being spilled,” Sylvia Earle, a famed oceanographer, said Wednesday on Capitol Hill. “It seems baffling that we don’t know where the oil is in the water column.”

The administration acknowledges that its scientific resources are stretched by the disaster, but contends that it is moving to get better information, including a more complete picture of the underwater plumes.

“We’re in the early stages of doing that, and we do not have a comprehensive understanding as of yet of where that oil is,” Jane Lubchenco, the NOAA administrator, told Congress on Wednesday.

The administration has mounted a huge response to the spill, deploying 1,105 vessels to try to skim oil, burn it and block it from shorelines. As part of the effort, the federal government and the Gulf Coast states have begun an extensive effort to catalog any environmental damage to the coast. In most places, the contamination appears modest so far.

The big scientific question now is what is happening in deeper water. While it is clear that water samples have been taken, the results have not been made public.

Lisa Jackson, administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency, told Congress on Wednesday that she was pressing for the release of additional test results, including some samples taken by boats under contract to BP. Rick Steiner, a marine biologist and a veteran of the 1989 Exxon Valdez disaster, assailed NOAA in an interview, declaring that it had been derelict in analyzing conditions beneath the sea.

“A vast ecosystem is being exposed to contaminants right now, and nobody’s watching it,” Steiner said. “That seems to me like a catastrophic failure on the part of NOAA.”

BANGKOK — A bloody crackdown in Bangkok by the Thai military set off rioting and arson attacks Wednesday in several places across Thailand, threatening to expand unrest and further aggravate the deep rifts that have hobbled Thai society for the past four years.

Troops and armored military vehicles overcame grenade-wielding militants allied with anti-government protesters in Bangkok, forcing the movement’s leaders to turn themselves in to the police.

But even as the government declared victory in quashing a debilitating protest that had shut down parts of Bangkok for two months, the rampage across Bangkok and in at least three provinces in the country’s populous northeastern hinterland raised concerns about the conflict spreading and the future of the current government. The government declared a curfew in 24 of the country’s 76 provinces, a radical move underlined by its announcement that looters or arsonists would be shot.

Arsonists in Bangkok set fire to almost 30 buildings, the government said, including the country’s stock exchange, a massive shopping mall, two banks, a movie theater and a television station. Two city halls were torched in the provincial capitals.

It was a measure of Thailand’s spiraling political violence that the death toll in the crackdown — around 12 people killed and more than 60 injured — was less than the bloodbath that many had feared.

Central Bangkok, the heart of one of Asia’s most cosmopolitan cities, was a militarized zone in the early hours today, with well-armed troops patrolling streets deserted

Thai soldiers storm into anti-government protesters’ encampment while a protester lies dead Wednesday in Bangkok. Downtown Bangkok became a battleground Wednesday as the army stormed a barricaded protest camp and the Red Shirt leadership surrendered, enraging demonstrators who fired grenades and set fires that cloaked the skyline in a black haze. by the curfew. The subway system remained shut, and embassies told their citizens living across this sprawling metropolis of about 15 million people to stay indoors.

The leaders of the red shirts, who had roared into Bangkok on March 12 demanding fresh elections, surrendered to the police on Wednesday afternoon to face charges of terrorism.

Their arrests and the dispersal of the crowd were rare victories for

the embattled government of Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva. But the volatile, defiant mood of the crowd on Wednesday also signaled a possible radicalization of a movement that leaders found difficult to control.

The crackdown began Wednesday morning after weeks of negotiations failed to disperse protesters, many of whom are followers of Thaksin Shinawatra, the prime minister ousted in a 2006 military coup.

Thesis is a window on roots of Kagan’s legal creed

By Peter Baker and Sheryl Gay Stolberg New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — As a young graduate student, Elena Kagan wrote that it was “not necessarily wrong or invalid” for judges to “try to mold and steer the law” to achieve social ends, but warned that such rulings must be rooted in legal principles to be accepted by society and endure.

Kagan, the nation’s solicitor general and President Barack Obama’s nominee to the Supreme Court, gave an expansive view in a 1983 thesis of both the potential and the limits of the court’s ability to make change in society amid the rise of the conservative backlash against the liberal rulings of previous decades.

“U.S. Supreme Court justices live in the knowledge that they have the authority to command or to block great social, political and economic change,” she wrote. “At times, the temptation to wield this power becomes irresistible.

The justices, at such times, will attempt to steer the law in order to achieve certain ends and advance certain values.

In following this path, the justices are likely to forget both that they are judges and that their court is a court.”

‘Measure of permanence’ Kagan added that “social justice” must be accompanied by legal rationale. “Judicial opinions may well appeal to the ethical sense — but this alone is not enough,” she wrote. “In

order to achieve some measure of permanence in an ever-fluctuating political and social order, judicial decisions must be plausibly rooted in either the Constitution or another accepted source of law.”

The thesis, which was sent to the Senate on Tuesday, was an analysis of the so-called exclusionary rule that bars prosecutors from using evidence gained illegally.

The analysis reflected the views of a 23-year-old Oxford student who had not yet gone to law school, and her thinking may have evolved.

But the thesis does offer a window into the roots of Kagan’s legal and political philosophy that is likely to attract scrutiny during her confirmation hearings.

Online gambling tax may be jackpot WASHINGTON — When Rep. Jim McDermott went looking for revenue to improve foster care for kids, he said he stumbled on what may turn out to be a jackpot: a tax on Internet gambling.

McDermott, D-Wash., is seeking to impose taxes on online poker and other Internet gambling that could bring the federal government as much as $42 billion over 10 years, according to a congressional analysis. States may collect as much as $30 billion, McDermott’s office estimates.

On Wednesday, the House Ways and Means Committee will consider his proposal, which depends on passage of a separate bill to legalize some Internet gambling and roll back a law designed to block wagering beginning June 1. That bill would let U.S. residents gamble online with companies licensed by the Treasury Department.

Opponents such as Chad Hills, an analyst for gambling research and policy at Colorado Springs-based Focus on the Family, say tax gains would be offset by social costs, such as gambling addiction.

Online betting is “the most predatory, addictive and inva-

sive form of gambling,” Hills said. “If people are sitting around in their pajamas on their computer in their living room playing on multiple Internet sites, what is this going to do to the United States?”

Wealth gap between whites, blacks widens WASHINGTON — Years of deregulation that led to an increase in high-cost loans is indirectly responsible for the quadrupling of the wealth gap between white and black Americans between 1984 and 2007, according to a study by Brandeis University’s Institute on Assets and Social Policy released this week.

Measured in 2007 dollars, the disparity in assets increased $75,000 on average, from $20,000 to $95,000 over the 23-year period. At least one in four black households had no assets.

According to the study, such an increase in negative wealth among African-Americans means they depend more frequently on credit and other forms of high cost debt, but many low-income and minority households are subjected to costly lending products as a result of their burgeoning debt.

President Barack Obama and Mexican President Felipe Calderon participate in a joint news conference in the Rose Garden of the White House in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday.

Obama criticizes Arizona immigration laws during Mexican president’s visit New York Times News Service WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama on Wednesday sharpened his critique of an Arizona law aimed at immigrants and called on Republicans to support efforts to overhaul the nation’s immigration system.

In a joint news conference with Mexican President Felipe Calderon, Obama said that the state law had the potential to be applied in a discriminatory fashion.

Obama said he ordered a Jus-

tice Department review to see if the law violates federal civil rights statues, because nobody, “be they an American citizen, a legal immigrant, or a visitor or tourist from Mexico, should ever be subject to suspicion simply because of what they look like.”

Calderon flatly rejected the Arizona law as discriminatory, saying it criminalized immigrants. He promised to work with the United States to resolve the complex issue.

“Judicial decisions must be plausibly rooted in either the Constitution or another accepted source of law.”

Obama, primary candidates kept each other at arm’s length

By Anne E. Kornblut The Washington Post

If Tuesday night’s elections were a referendum on President Barack Obama, it was not because he sought to make it that way.

In fact, Obama mostly held the candidates at arm’s length.

It was in keeping with his pattern as president — largely distancing himself from Democratic candidates and declaring early on that there is little meaning to be found in isolated off-year elections. In race after race, the wariness has been a two-way street, with candidates reluctant to bring in a president with mediocre approval ratings and the White House reluctant to link him too closely to a potential loser.

The White House arguably had its hands tied in the races that were decided on Tuesday night.

Obama was all but required to endorse Arlen Specter after the Pennsylvania senator switched parties to become a Democrat and voted to support several of the president’s initiatives, including the health care overhaul. But the White House viewed Specter as a problematic candidate in the Democratic primary — a former longtime Republican, and worse, one that his opponent cast as an opportunist — and exhibited caution in sending the president to help. Obama went once.

Similarly, in Arkansas, a state Obama lost and where his approval ratings are low, local operatives wanted him only in small doses. He recorded a radio ad for Sen. Blanche Lincoln that was targeted at the large African American communities in the Memphis media market. He never visited and it signaled the measured approach of the administration, several strategists inside and outside the Obama operation said.

A year and a half into his term, Obama’s mixed electoral record has perplexed operatives who thought his charisma and tactical skill would yield a stronger-thanever Democratic majority. Instead, Democrats have lost the biggest elections so far on his watch — the governorships of Virginia and New Jersey and the Senate seat that belonged to the late Edward Kennedy of Massachusetts.

Continued from A1 “We will probably spend at least $290,000 this year,” he said. “I hope I’m wrong, but I’m probably not. The commissioners might hear us coming back related to some extra money for that and there might be need for additional transport staff because it’s a logistics nightmare.”

As the votes came in Tuesday evening, Blanton said he had no plans to ask officials to put another jail bond on the ballot in the near future.

Blanton’s comments on Wednesday came in a meeting with the budget committee, which has been holding meetings through the week and is scheduled to sign off on a budget today.

Blanton and Jim Ross, the Sheriff’s Office operations manager, said the office is proposing a $36.5 million budget, up from this year’s $32.9 million budget. The proposal includes an increase in expenses of about $1.4 million, largely because of salary bumps and two large capital projects: a remodel of part of the Sheriff’s Office main facility and an update of a records management system.

.

Ross said officials still expect to be able to increase the contingency fund by about $2 million because the amount of money collected from property taxes is expected to go up.

Blanton added that he built a tax cut into the budget for District 1, the special taxing district that covers the entire county and helps fund jail and search and rescue operations and courthouse security. In 2006, the rate was set at 95 cents per $1,000 in assessed value, in part because the county needed to pay for remodeling and staffing of the jail’s Work Center.

Now, that work is completed and Blanton said he can afford to cut the rate to 92 cents, which amounts to about $6 per year for the owner of a $200,000 home, and will cut a total of $477,000 out of the district’s annual operating budget. He said the cut will not impact services and pointed to improvements in his office over the last year, including faster response times and expanded community programs, such as document shredding and prescription medication disposal.

“The first question people have is, ‘If you’re cutting taxes, what services aren’t you going to provide?’” Blanton said. “One thing you’ll never hear from the Sheriff’s Office is, ‘Well, we don’t have this money (and) aren’t able to provide this service to the community.’”

Members of the budget committee did not share any major concerns about Blanton’s budget plan. After the budget committee signs off on a plan, the County Commission will finalize the budget in June.

Primaries: What the heck happened?

By Liz Sidoti The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Dazed and confused. The biggest primary night of the season left the two parties struggling Wednesday to figure out their next steps in an increasingly volatile election year.

In several states, voters flocked to self-described outsiders at a time when support for Congress is low, anger at Washington high and backing for President

Judge Continued from A1 Deschutes County officials have 20 days to get all of the ballots to the state, which then has until June 17 to certify the results, said Candy Broucek, a compliance specialist with the Oregon Secretary of State’s Elections Division.

If one of the candidates ends up with 50 percent of the vote plus one, the race is over, but otherwise, the top two contenders will end up on the November ballot.

The winner will begin a sixyear term in January, replacing retiring Judge Edward Perkins, who has been on the bench for three decades. Circuit Court judge positions pay $114,468 per year.

It’s an unpredictable political environment in which Republicans will seek to take control of Congress this fall and Democrats will try to curtail losses.

Hill said the high number of undervotes in the race is an indication that people need more information.

Undervotes represent the voters who did not mark their ballot in a particular race.

“What that means to me is people are cautious with their votes and don’t understand or lack sufficient information to make a real logical or good choice about a judgeship, what a judge does, or what qualifications a judge should have,” he said.

Shelters Continued from A1 “I would hate to give all this up and live in a bunker,” said Kramer, glancing at sailboats out on the Pacific with his feet roosted on a glass coffee table. “I’m not trying to perpetuate doom and gloom, but you have to be prepared.”

Legions of Americans dug backyard fallout shelters to ride out atomic Armageddon during the Cold War. Now, with heightened concerns about terrorist attacks in the post-Sept. 11 world, a new generation is looking underground.

“In some ways, our political climate is similar,” said Jeffrey Knopf, associate professor of national security affairs at the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, Calif. “There’s a lot of free-floating

Records Continued from A1 “The situation created by the closure of the Clackamas facility is unprecedented in Oregon,” wrote Deputy Superintendent Ed Dennis in a final order sent to EdChoices on Tuesday. “I have grave concerns (about) the impact that this closure continues to have on students.”

Dennis issued the final order, asking the company and any contractors to turn over to the state all education records and records with “personally identifiable student information.” It also asks the company to hand over any school assets to the department.

The order requires the records and assets be turned over by 5 p.m. Friday.

“We issued the order because good-faith efforts to secure student records were not being reciprocated,” said Oregon Department of Education spokesman Morgan Allen. “We’re still awaiting a response from their attorneys and insurer.”

Allen declined to comment further on the issue.

Dennis wrote the order was issued because of “the length of time that students, parents and schools have been denied access to these records and the fact that this denial may impact students’ ability to graduate this year.”

EdChoices President Norm Donohoe referred all questions to Starla Goff, a lawyer retained by EdChoices’ insurance company.

The issue began March 15, when EdChoices received a notice of eviction at its Clackamas offices. AllPrep subleased space in the Clackamas office from EdChoices, according to Goff.

EdChoices also provided office and clerical support for AllPrep schools. The company also oversaw administrative and educational services to 13 public charters in eight Oregon school districts, as well as programs in two Washington school districts, according to the order.

Among those schools were three Sisters charters, and an online education program run through Fossil School District.

Sisters Charter Academy of Fine Arts closed on March 23, shortly after it was evicted from its building. One week later, Sisters Early College Academy closed, and on April 6 the Sisters AllPrep Academy shuttered as well.

anxiety out there about the dangers that terrorists will get nuclear weapons ... and it multiplies.”

Cue the entrepreneurs. Comeons for doomsday products, from survival classes to earthquake kits, abound on the Internet. Demand is fueled by natural disasters, terrorist activity and websites dedicated to exploring such topics as what will happen Dec. 21, 2012, the last day of the ancient Mayan calendar and the date that, some people believe, the world will end.

Larry Hall is recruiting rich clients for what he calls an underground survival condo — in Kansas. He envisions a building that goes 15 floors beneath the ground, with units selling for $1.75 million. “After the earthquakes and volcanic explosions, they’re calling up, saying everything they said was going to start happening is happening,” said Hall, an engi-

AllPrep Director Tim King, who did not return requests for comment, announced his resignation on March 21, and according to the order is now only associated with Washington AllPrep Academy, of the Toppenish School District.

Toppenish is a 3,300-student district near Yakima.

After finding out about the Clackamas eviction, ODE contacted the landlord to discuss how to secure and move the records. On April 21, state education officials were joined by representatives from EdChoices, the Oregon Department of Justice and Estacada School District, and charter school board members, and the property management company that evicted the company. The group toured the facility to discuss removing records and other assets from the building.

On April 26 and May 10, ODE scheduled movers to remove the records from the premises. On one of those occasions, representatives from both the education and justice departments were denied access by EdChoices.

State education officials believe as many as 1,800 student records are currently locked in the office, some in fireproof cabinets and others unsecured. Some were stored in the reception area, according to the order.

“Scattered throughout the facility in plain view were other records containing personally identifiable information about the students,” the order states.

Goff said she was unaware of any student records being stored anywhere but in fireproof cabinets.

In the order, Dennis wrote the state has authority to take student and education records from privately leased facilities. He also states that the law allows the state to take other assets when a charter shuts down, then hand them back to the appropriate school districts.

The order also asserts that furniture, computers, office supplies and curriculum were purchased with Oregon school district funds and as a result are property of the districts.

But it’s unclear which district should get the property.

“Due to the (commingling) of funds amongst the schools, it is difficult to ascertain in some instances which school owns a particular asset or portion of an asset,” Dennis wrote in the final order.

neer who lives in Florida.Michael Wagner is peddling a personal “survival pod” for people to take refuge from tidal waves. The Oregon man says he’s been getting a lot more nibbles since the recent earthquakes in Haiti and Chile.

And in the desert near Barstow, Robert Vicino is selling berths in the 13,000-square-foot bunker where Kramer plans to hunker down, should it come to that. Vicino’s company, Vivos, charges $5,000 to reserve a space. Kids are half price. Pets are free.

“I’m careful not to promote fear,” said Vicino, who also sells more conventional real estate and stands 6 feet 8 inches tall. “But sooner or later, I believe you’re going to need to seek shelter.”

Property records show the site is owned by TSG Investments of Portland, which bought it from AT&T. Vicino said Vivos has an

Goff said releasing the student records was a complicated matter. ODE wanted all records at once and so Goff needed permission from every involved district.

“Basically, we’re trying to unwind a hairball, and we’re trying to make some sense of this and trying to do it in a way that’s quick and consistent with (state and federal law),” Goff said.

ODE, she said, has the authority to take the records of any defunct schools. Though other AllPrep schools are closing after this school year, only the Sisters schools have shut down.

If EdChoices was to release the information, Goff said, she needed permission from all of them.

ODE also wanted to collect the property — including computers, pens and paper — but no single district had paid for those.

Rather, funds from each of the districts contributed to the purchases, she said.

“We have 10,000 square feet of laptops, confidential student information and student records.

It’s down to who bought toilet paper, who bought the postage still in the postage machine, who bought the highlighters and who bought pads of paper,” Goff said.

Goff said all the districts have given her permission to release the property and documents. She expects a resolution soon.

Meanwhile, at least five of the charter schools associated with EdChoices and AllPrep have closed or will close at the end of the year. And parents around the state have requested their students’ records to no avail. In the past two months, at least 34 parents, school staff members and others have asked for records.

“Some of these contacts have expressed difficulty with receiving educational services due to the denial of access to the records,” the order states. “Additionally, some students may not be able to graduate in June if access to the records continues to be denied.”

Dawn Anderson, whose daughter attended Sisters AllPrep, is one of those dozens of parents. She has been trying for more than a month to get her daughter’s records. After a flurry of replies from Sisters and state officials, Anderson has not heard anything for a month.

She worries about how she’ll be able to prove what work her daughter completed without the official school records.

S T OR I ES arrangement with the owner to develop and sell space in the property, which was originally built as an emergency government communications center during the Cold War. When renovations are complete, Vicino said, the bunker will house 132 people in comfort for up to a year. The plan is to sell spaces, which include a bunk in a four-person room, for $50,000.

He says he’s collected deposits on half the spaces but has not raised enough to start renovating.

Experts caution that buying any kind of undeveloped real estate carries risk. If the builder goes belly-up, buyers could have trouble getting back their investment. That’s true for unfinished bunker space where there are few “comps” — sale prices for similar properties in the area — to help assess the value.

report card, or anything,” Anderson said.

Julie Benson worried that her daughter, who was in sixth grade at Sisters AllPrep, wouldn’t receive credit for all the work she completed this school year.

Once Benson heard about the coming Sisters AllPrep closure, she went online and printed out all of her daughter’s work and grades. At that point, her daughter had already finished all this year’s work.

“I figured that if anybody wanted to see what she’d done... they could see everything,” Benson said. “I did it so I could prove that she did attend school and that she did do something for the year.”

As Benson considers several school options for her daughter, she’s relieved she has a record of the year’s work.

Benson is close to certain that her daughter won’t go to any of the surviving AllPrep schools next year. Her problem, she said, is with company administration.

“I’m hesitant to do that just because I don’t trust them now and I don’t want to be associated with an entity that is doing these kinds of things to the kids,” Benson said.

Grads Continued from A1 The graduates’ plight has been the subject of high-level discussions within President Barack Obama’s administration, which so far has concluded the best response is to focus on reviving overall employment and bolstering assistance for higher education, said Peter Orszag, the White House budget director.

“What’s clear is that there is harm to those who graduate at the wrong time through no fault of their own, which is one reason why it is so important to improve the jobs market,” Orszag said. “That is the bottom line here.”

The scramble for jobs may depress earnings of new and recent college graduates for years to come and handicap their future career opportunities, according to Lisa Kahn, an assistant professor of economics at Yale. It also might hurt Democrats in the No-

vember Congressional elections, as the young voters who helped propel the party to power in 2008 grow disenchanted with their economic prospects.

Students who graduated in the early 1980s — when two recessions drove unemployment to a peak of 10.8 percent — suffered wage losses of more than $100,000 in the next 15 years compared with those who came into the job market during the decade’s boom years, according to Kahn’s research.

The average salary offered to bachelor’s degree candidates this year is $47,673, 1.7 percent less than 2009, when the economy already was in recession, according to data compiled from campus job-placement offices by the National Association of Colleges and Employers in Bethlehem, Pa.

the Mortgage Bankers Association said Wednesday. That’s a record high and up from 9.1 percent a year ago.

A big jump in the number of borrowers who have missed three months of mortgage payments drove the increase.

One encouraging sign is the number of homeowners just starting to show trouble is trending downward. As of March, nearly 3.5 percent of borrowers had missed one month of mortgage payments, down from about 3.8 percent a year earlier.

After contending with nearly 240 bank failures since the financial crisis struck, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. is finally getting some help from private investors. A spate of recent banking takeovers and investments suggests that stronger financial institutions and private investment firms see value in the detritus of American banking. That is good news for the FDIC, which has had to shoulder the cost of failures through its deposit insurance fund. Today, the agency is expected to announce that it lowered the amount of money it set aside to cover future losses by more than $3 billion during the first quarter.

Mortgage delinquencies drag on economic recovery Record number of homeowners missing payments

Investors ease strain on FDIC

WASHINGTON — The mortgage crisis is dragging on the economic recovery as more homeowners fall behind on their payments.

Analysts expect improvement soon, but the number of homeowners in default or at risk of foreclosure will have a lingering effect on the broader economy.

More than 10 percent of homeowners with a mortgage had missed at least one payment in the January-March period,

Around 4.3 million homeowners, or about 8 percent of all Americans with a mortgage, are at risk of losing their homes, the trade group’s top economist estimates. They have either missed at least three months of payments or are in foreclosure.

Should loan modification programs fail to help, their homes will go up for sale either as a foreclosure or short sale — when the bank agrees to sell the property for less than the original mortgage amount.

The Federal Reserve indicated that it would wait until after it started raising interest rates before selling the huge store of assets that it acquired in response to the financial crisis. The goal would be to gradually complete the sales about five years after they begin. While that strategy is not yet definitive, it is preferred by a majority within the Federal Open Market Committee, the Fed’s policy-making arm, according to minutes released Wednesday from the committee’s most recent meeting.

he declining real estate market may allow the Bend Park & Recreation District to obtain one of the city’s last undeveloped riverfront parcels and create a park that would add to the Deschutes River Trail and provide water access for kayaks and canoes.

Millbrook LLC, which planned to build more than 35 townhomes on the parcel across the river from McKay Park, has given the Trust for Public Land an option to purchase the property. Millbrook is a joint venture of Brooks Resources Corp. and the Miller family, owners of Bend-based Miller Lumber.

If the purchase goes through, the new

park, tentatively called Miller’s Landing, also would provide additional access for river rafters and kayakers using water features proposed at the Colorado Avenue Dam and spillway. A proposal calls for construction of a smooth channel for floaters on rafts and inner tubes and a white-water play area for kayakers.

“This is one of very few riverfront properties left,” said Bruce Ronning, the park district’s director of planning and development.

Bend Park & Recreation has been interested in the land since at least the early 1990s, Ronning said. The district made several unsuccessful attempts over the years to acquire it, but did not have the money.

FORT WORTH — Has American Airlines, for decades the industry’s leader, been backed into a corner?

First, Delta Air Lines’ merger with Northwest Airlines two years ago knocked American to No. 2. Now, the proposed union between United and Continental Airlines would push American down to third.

All this leaves American with some of the industry’s highest

In Deschutes County, the number of paint recycling sites will increase from five to between eight and 10.

New park would provide more water access

AMERICAN AIRLINES’ WOES Consumer prices

Buying paint in Oregon is about to get more expensive, but recycling leftover paint will get easier, thanks to a pilot program that will take effect this summer.

The Legislature passed a law last year requiring paint manufacturers to design and pay for a program to safely recycle and dispose of unused paint in Oregon. That program must be in place by July 1, but could start as early as June.

Deschutes County already has a paint recycling program, but the number of drop-off sites will increase from five to between eight and 10, and the county estimates that shifting the recycling responsibility to paint manufacturers will save it between $100,000 and $150,000 a year.

Crook County and other counties with no permanent paint recycling program will likely get their own drop-off sites. There will be no charge for dropping off paint.

Paint dropped off at paint recycling sites in Oregon will mostly go to Metro, the regional government for the Portland area, which mixes unused paint and resells it under the label MetroPaint. The rest will go to a paint recycler in California.

The new recycling program, called PaintCare, will be paid for by paint manufacturers such as Sherwin-Williams. But manufacturers are required to pass that cost onto customers, who will pay an extra 35 cents for every can from a half-pint to less than a gallon, 75 cents for a one-gallon can, and $1.60 for anything over a gallon up to five gallons.

A gallon of house paint usually costs about $10 to $30.

Inflation rises at lowest rate since ’60s Consumer prices overall fell in April by 0.1 percent, the Labor Department said Wednesday. The decline was the first since March 2009. The downturn was led by a decline in energy prices, especially for gasoline and natural gas, the report said. Food prices rose 0.2 percent, mostly because of higher costs for meat, poultry, fish and eggs. But without the volatile prices for food and energy, the core index for consumer prices remained flat.

Over the 12-month period that ended in April, the core index rose 0.9 percent, which economists said was the lowest it has been since the 1960s.

Federal Reserve has a plan for asset sales

Stocks on Wall Street declined on Wednesday as a German measure meant to thwart speculators in the European debt markets revived concerns about the debt crisis in Europe. The Dow Jones industrial average finished about 67 points lower after earlier falling as much as 186 points, taking much of its direction from the value of the euro. The euro fell to a new four-year low in early trading, but rebounded after speculation surfaced of intervention in the currency markets by the Swiss National Bank to shore up its value.

costs, as well as poor labor relations and a smaller network of routes. Some analysts contend that the airline has few options other than merging with US Airways, which was left out when United decided to go for Continental. Others see American as the “Ugly Betty” of the industry, an airline struggling to find a suitable partner.

“American has been used to cruising at 55 miles per hour ahead of everyone, but now two competitors that are very

well capitalized, with much larger networks, have suddenly passed them over,” said Hunter K. Keay, an airline analyst at Stifel Nicolaus. “The critical question is whether this is not time for American to speed up.”

American’s executives counter that they will not be forced into making a rash move, nor into blindly following the industry’s matchmaking trend.

Instead, they argue that being a little smaller will allow their airline to be more nimble.

“We are not ceding anything to anyone, but we are trying to build something that we believe will be able to be profitable,” Gerard J. Arpey, the airline’s chairman and chief executive, said in a recent interview at its headquarters in Fort Worth.

Rather than trying to compete everywhere with everyone, American seeks to focus on five major cities in the United States — Dallas, Chicago, Los Angeles, Miami and New York.

Senate fails to end debate on financial regulation bill

By Jim Puzzanghera and Lisa Mascaro Los Angeles Times

WASHINGTON — Attempts to pass a sweeping overhaul of financial regulations stalled in the Senate Wednesday as a key procedural vote failed because of near-unanimous Republican opposition and concerns from two Democrats the legislation was not tough enough on Wall Street.

Senate Democratic leaders failed to get the 60 votes needed to end debate on the legislation and bring the sweeping financial reform legislation to a final vote.

The failure caused partisan tensions to flare. But another vote was scheduled for today and key Democrats said they were hopeful they could overcome the procedural hurdle.

“We’re going to keep this fight going. We’ve got to win this fight,” said Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill. “The American people are counting on us to make these changes, to guarantee we don’t face another recession like this again.”

New business groups are forming to help gay entrepreneurs like Conley network and share ideas.

Gay entrepreneurs find their network growing

By Jessica Bruder New York Times News Service

Lots of entrepreneurs would like to pick Chip Conley’s brain.

But when several dozen gathered in November to meet the founder of Joie de Vivre, a boutique hotel chain that he said had $220 million in revenue last year, their questions were not just about the nuts and bolts of running a company.

They also asked: How do you come out of the closet in your business? And how do you handle investors who might be uncomfortable with your vocal support of gay rights?

StartOut Conley, 49, who came out four years before he opened his first hotel, the Phoenix, in 1987, recounted steering such investors to the website of Kimpton Hotels, a competitor that promotes its support for gay employees.

Then he told them that one of Kimpton’s biggest investors was a former Senate Republican leader, Bill Frist. That example, Conley recalled, was enough to ease the investors’ concerns.

Conley’s talk was organized

by StartOut, a new nonprofit networking group for gay entrepreneurs. The group, organized by a circle of friends in spring 2009, has since drawn some 1,000 participants to events in San Francisco, New York and Los Angeles.

Park Continued from B1 As the Bend real estate market soared, the value of the Millers’ riverfront property went with it, increasing from less than $250,000 in real market value in 1997 to around $3.5 million in a decade, according to Deschutes County property records.

In June 2006, Brooks Resources received permission to build 37 townhomes.

But Bend’s real estate market — which recorded 25 percent year-over-year increases in median home sale prices between 2004 and 2006 — began to cool.

The median price fell by 2 percent from 2006 to 2007.

Brooks Resources abandoned the townhouse proposal by mid 2007, according to The Bulletin’s archives, leading to another chance for the park district to acquire the property, which the district considers its highest priority community park land purchase.

The opportunity stemmed from an effort by The Trust for Public Land to create a Deschutes County Greenprint, a community-generated plan that identifies key land to be considered for conservation.

Representatives from Brooks Resources, a participant in the Greenprint effort, asked if the Trust would be interested in buying the Miller land, said Kristin Kovalik, project manager for the national nonprofit conservation organization.

“It was sheer timing,” Kovalik said. “...We had started the Greenprint planning process, and we saw this as a real opportunity for the Miller Landing property to come into” the park district’s holdings.

Out events to network, share ideas and sip cocktails.

They come to talk business in a setting free of awkward assumptions.

And they come to hear speakers like Conley, who serves on the group’s advisory board, or Megan Smith, the vice president for new business development at Google, who is headlining a StartOut event later this month.

Filling a need Darren Spedale, an investment banker turned serial entrepreneur in Manhattan, came up with the idea for StartOut a year ago. Spedale, most recently a founder of A-List Global Media, a company that creates media and entertainment products for adolescents, noted that plenty of other groups had entrepreneurship associations — like Astiafor women or TiE for South Asians.

“Why on earth isn’t there anything like this for the gay and lesbian community?” he remembers thinking. “It was a no-brainer.”

The last decade has seen a flowering of affinity groups for gays in business. There are some 1.2 million gay-owned businesses in the United States and about 29,000 of them belong to local gay chambers of commerce, according to Justin Nelson, president and a founder of the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce, which was organized in 2002 in Washington.

For too many years, Nelson

The Trust, whose mission includes helping to conserve land for recreational uses, obtained a purchase option on the property for $1.81 million, the value from its most recent appraisal.

The Trust has agreed to put up $810,000; the park district has dedicated $750,000 from its proposed 2010-11 budget, and last month the district applied for a $250,000 grant from the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department.

A number of organizations, including Visit Bend, the Bend Paddle Trails Alliance and neighborhood associations, support the plan, according to the park district’s grant application.

But the real credit should go to Brooks Resources and the Miller family, Kovalik and Ronning said, for agreeing to the effort, when the market is at a low point. The developers could have simply waited for the market to improve and the property’s value to rise.

“It really says a lot about the landowners’ civic-mindedness and commitment to the community.”

If the district gets the land, it will allow public access to the property, which is now blocked by a chain-link fence. A conceptual design suggests it might have a playground, restroom and picnic shelter, similar to the features found at McKay Park across the river.

The 3.75-acre park would provide river access for fishing and canoe- and kayak-launching.

It also would provide a segment for the Deschutes River Trail and complement the park district’s safe passage whitewater play area proposed for the Colorado Avenue Dam. In January, the park board accepted a plan, the Colorado Ave-

said, the prevailing attitude among gay entrepreneurs in America was, “It’s OK for me to be gay, but I can’t do it in my business for fear that it will ruin my company.” That message, however, has evolved.

“It’s a sign of the enlightened times that we live in,” said Patrick Chung, a StartOut advisory board member, of the proliferation of gay business groups.

Chung works in Menlo Park, Calif., as a partner at New Enterprise Associates, a global venture capital firm. (He knows of only one other openly gay venture capitalist in Silicon Valley: Amy Errett of Maveronwho is also on the advisory board of StartOut.) “The generation that’s coming through now, they’re more comfortable in their skin,” Chung added. “There’s been more societal support.”

Continued from B1 Senate Democratic leaders fell two votes short of ending debate, though the final tally was 57-42. In another indication of optimism they would eventually prevail, Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada changed his vote to “no” to make it easier to hold another vote.

Democrats noted it took three similar attempts last month to overcome strong Republican opposition and gain the 60 votes necessary to start work on the legislation.

Most Republicans continue to oppose the legislation as an unnecessary expansion of government regulation.

But two Republicans, Sens.

Susan Collins and Olympia Snowe of Maine, broke ranks Wednesday and joined with Democrats in voting to end debate.

The legislation is a top priority of the Obama administration and congressional Democratic leaders.

It would create an independent bureau in the Federal Reserve to protect consumers in the financial marketplace, grant the government power to seize and dismantle teetering firms whose failure would pose a danger to the economy, impanel a council of regulators to monitor the financial system for major risks and impose strict regulations on complex financial derivatives.

Challenges Democrats could be helped by the potential return to Washington of Sen. Arlen Specter, D-Pa., who missed Wednesday’s vote after losing his re-election primary.

His office did not respond to calls about his whereabouts or whether he would be back on Thursday.

nue Dam, Proposed Paddle Trail Improvements, which calls for several water features, including a smooth chute for people floating the river and white-water drops into pools for more experienced paddlers and an area set aside for habitat protection.

The district’s 2010-11 proposed budget contains $200,000 for engineering and environmental analysis on the project, Ronning stated in an e-mail.

The Bend Paddle Trail Alliance and others are interested in raising money for the work, which is estimated at $1.7 million. At this point, however, the park district is concentrating on buying the Miller property.

If the sale goes through, The Trust for Public Land would buy the property and convey it to the park district. The purchase option expires Dec. 31.

The Trust has a funding commitment from The Collins Foundation, which is dedicated to improving the quality of life in Oregon, and will be seeking money from other similar organizations, potentially, through the Oregon Community Foundation.

Information about the project will be displayed at REI and during Tumalo Creek Kayak and Canoe’s Pickin’ & Paddlin’ Music Series and other events, said Kovalik, who has met with store managers at the Old Mill District.

In the fall, the neighborhood association hopes to hold an event on the property, Kovalik said.

“It’s just a natural link between the Old Mill District and downtown,” she said, referring to the property.

Also known as credit default swaps and collateralized debt obligations, derivatives were a major factor in spreading toxic mortgagebacked securities and other money-losing assets deep into the worldwide financial system.

As the name implies, derivatives derive their value from other assets — foreign exchange rates, soybean prices, even other securities. Although derivatives can be incredibly complex, the basic premise is simple: One party agrees to pay another party money if a certain prediction about the future is correct.

A farmer, for instance, can try to partially offset, or hedge, a future drop in corn prices by buying a derivative that pays off if the price falls.

But investors also use derivatives to speculate. Investment banks and other financial companies can use derivatives to place bets on the price of oil or the credit rating on a corporate bond.

They have helped to turn derivatives into high-stakes gambling.

“The most important thing to understand about derivatives is that they are bets.

That’s not a figure of speech — they are literally bets,” said Lynn Stout, a UCLA professor of corporate and securities law. “You can make a million-dollar bet on a $1,000 horse.”

— Los Angeles Times vote — Sen. Maria Cantwell of Washington and Russ Feingold of Wisconsin.

Cantwell wants the full body to vote on two amendments — one to tighten new proposed regulations on complex financial derivatives and another to restore a prohibition against federally insured commercial banks also doing investment banking.

banking prohibition.

“The test for this legislation is a simple one — whether it will prevent another financial crisis,” Feingold said after the vote. “As the bill stands, it fails that test.

Ending debate on the bill is finishing before the job is done.”

Reid and other Democratic supporters of the legislation tried unsuccessfully on the Senate floor to convince Cantwell to change her vote. But she sat stone-faced and refused their pleas.

Cantwell said she’s most concerned about getting a vote on her amendment to ensure derivatives do not elude new regulations requiring them to be traded on public exchanges and through central clearinghouses.

“Trading of dark market derivatives is what has brought this challenge to our U.S. economy,” she said. “Let’s bring some transparency into that market.”

Opposition Democrats and Republicans have been trying to reach agreement on a few remaining sticking points, but disputes are lingering over several amendments that have not yet had votes.

Among them is an attempt by auto dealers to be exempted from oversight by the new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

“There was opposition from Republicans and Democrats to shutting down debate because there are important amendments that should be considered but that could have been shut out by this procedural move,” said Sen. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa.

The two Democratic defectors also made it tougher for some Republicans to vote to end debate, said Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tenn.

Despite numerous changes made in the bill over the last three weeks, Senate Republican leaders remained strongly opposed, as are many business groups and financial firms.

the gold, I don’t know if that’s any safer than having a mutual fund,” she said. “But I’m worried that if I keep mulling and don’t act, I’m going to keep losing value” in the stock portfolio.

Some analysts are even anticipating that gold will hit $1,400 in the near future — a far cry from two years ago when $1,000 for an ounce was considered as realistic as finding the lost city of El Dorado.

“We’re going to see some explosive movement in gold,” said John March, chief technical officer for gold trading firm Superior Gold Group in Santa Monica, Calif. “We’re looking at something that doesn’t have a lot pushing it down but a lot push-

Over the next eight years, March expects to see an average annual boost of 20 percent to 25 percent in the price of gold.

Investors are ducking into the precious metal amid concerns about volatile stock and bond markets and the worldwide implications of Greece’s financial problems.

And this time, the growth is happening despite a strengthening dollar, which usually suppresses the metal’s price.

IRS WHISTLE-BLOWERS

When tipsters can’t wait for their rewards, investors step in

By David Kocieniewski New York Times News Service

Hedge funds have found a new market to invest in: whistle-blowers.

Informants who turn in tax cheats have to wait years to get their share of any reward from the IRS’s recently expanded whistle-blower program. So hedge funds, private equity groups and other big investors are offering an alternative. They are essentially agreeing to buy a percentage of those future payouts in exchange for a smaller amount upfront to the whistle-blowers.

The surging size of the potential awards is driving all the interest. Three years ago, the IRS began offering bigger rewards — 15 percent to 30 percent of whatever money the government recovered — in a move that has turbocharged the agency’s whistle-blower program.

In what is believed to be the first of these structured tax payouts, an

IRS informant who reported that an overseas multinational corporation had underpaid its taxes by billions of dollars received $4 million last month from a private equity firm. In exchange, the firm will receive a portion of the award the informant expects to collect.

The whistle-blower’s lawyer, Eric Havian, declined to name his client or provide specifics. But he said the informant needed money to cover living expenses because he had had trouble finding work since filing his claim.

An emerging market While the market in whistleblower futures is in its infancy, investors have been requesting as much as 65 percent of any award an informant receives, according to lawyers negotiating possible deals. Although the IRS has long accepted tips from informants, until recently it seemed reluctant to investigate their complaints or

reward them. For the five years ended in 2008, the IRS received about 80 whistle-blower complaints a year, and recovered an average of $155 million a year from tips in previous years, paying an average of $14 million annually in awards.

Since sweetening its awards, the whistle-blower’s office has been receiving more than 500 tips a year. In the five years through fiscal 2008, tips from informants led to 20 cases in which the IRS had been underpaid by at least $2 million. Now the IRS receives 40 or 50 such tips a month, about 10 percent claiming fraud of $100 million or more.

A recent round of “program changes” by the IRS announced that informants are entitled only to a portion of the money directly paid to the government. If a tip simply leads to the denial of a refund — or if the unpaid taxes are used to offset other losses — the whistle-blower comes up empty.

Rise in 401(k) contributions seen

By Margaret Collins Bloomberg News

NEW YORK — Participants in 401(k) retirement plans increased their contributions in the first quarter as the equity markets recovered, according to reports by Fidelity Investments and Bank of America Corp.

About 7.5 percent of investors in Fidelity 401(k) plans increased their contributions, up from 5 percent in the last quarter, according to the Boston-based company, which has 11 million participants. It was the fourth straight quarter where more investors increased rather than decreased their savings rate, said the firm, the largest 401(k) provider.

“Participants are more com-

fortable,” said Beth McHugh, vice president of market insights at Fidelity. “They’re less concerned with some of the volatility.” The Standard & Poor’s 500 Index rose 23 percent in 2009 and increased 5 percent in the first quarter this year.

Almost 202,000 investors with Bank of America Merrill Lynch changed their contribution rate and 66 percent increased their savings or started contributing, compared with 34 percent who stopped or decreased savings, according to a report by the Charlotte, N.C.-based company, which had $86 billion in plan assets as of March 31.

Automatic escalation of savings within retirement plans was “not a significant driver of in-

creased contributions rates during the first quarter,” said Matt Card, a Bank of America Merrill Lynch spokesman, in an e-mail.

“Increased contribution rates to 401(k) plan accounts during the last couple of quarters is evidence of an improving economy,” said Kevin Crain, head of institutional client relationships for Bank of America Merrill Lynch.

At Fidelity, the average 401(k) account balance as of March 31 was $66,900, up 41 percent from a year earlier and still down from $69,200 in 2007, McHugh said.

The average contribution rate by employees is 8.2 percent, according to Fidelity. Bank of America Merrill Lynch declined to provide its average account balance or contribution rate, Card said.

For years, the biggest fans of gold weren’t taken very seriously. Now they’re looking downright prophetic.

Gold futures have risen for several weeks, breaking records along the way. If you invested $10,000 in gold two years ago, it would be worth nearly $14,000 today — for a return of just under 40 percent.

While fans of the shiny metal have sometimes been dismissed as “gold bugs,” the fact is that gold has been rising in value every year since 2001, when an ounce of gold was selling for $279. A $10,000 gold investment then would be worth more than $30,000 today.

That’s why the precious metal is beckoning Katherine Gorell, 34, a communications coordinator in Miami.

Her stock portfolio has shrunk nearly 5 percent since 2008, and she lost about $1,000 in the “flash crash” alone.

“You just can’t predict the market, and I’m not so sure we’re going to have a recovery,” she said. “The economy is global and there are so many weak links — anything could happen at any time. Gold is one of those things that people have always thought was safe.”

She’s held off though, partly because the price is now so high.

and silver have been sliding with the improvement in the dollar.

Oil has also been slipping.

Light, sweet crude futures for June fell $2.79 on the New York Mercantile Exchange to $71.61 a barrel Friday. On May 3, it closed at $86.19 — a 17 percent drop.

But silver — sometimes known as “poor man’s gold” — rose to $19.20 an ounce Friday as investors who couldn’t afford gold bought the cheaper metal.

Many investors are losing faith in paper-based currencies such as the euro and the pound, whose value has been falling.

In Europe, banks are running out of gold to sell, while the South African government rushes to ship more Krugerrand coins, analysts said.

“You have a world financial system in crisis, and it’s quite scary,” said Ken Edwards, vice president of Inglewood, Calif., bullion dealer California Numismatic Investment. “It’s causing people to look again at where their assets are sitting and they’re heading to safety. The picture of safety is gold.”

Matt Zeman, a metals trader with LaSalle Futures Group in Chicago, is worried about the possibility of a run on banks in some European Union countries.

Then, “the whole thing could really unravel, and quickly,” he said.

“This thing could really be off to the races,” he said. “People just want to wrap their arms around some tangible, hard assets.”

Eventually, the dollar will sink in value, said March of Superior Gold Group. But gold will continue to accelerate, and silver will ride the momentum, he said.

American Continued from B1 It is more important to be big in cities that account for a significant portion of the nation’s air travel, its executives reason, instead of spreading itself too thinly.

Overseas, American is betting on its international alliance, Oneworld, to expand its reach in Europe and Asia, because of partnerships with British Airways and Japan Airlines.

“Our strategy is not driven by ranking but by making sure we have a network and a group of partners around the world that will be as strong — if not as big,” Arpey said.

By most measures, American remains a formidable airline. It flies about 220,000 people each day, employs 78,900 people, and along with its regional carrier, American Eagle, operates around 3,400 daily flights to 250 cities and 40 countries.

At its shareholders’ meeting on Wednesday, American said it expected that the Oneworld alliance would mean $500 million. It also has an impressive history, introducing coast-to-coast jet service in the 1950s, pioneering electronic reservations in the ’60s and offering the first major frequentflier program in the ’80s.

But the last decade has been brutal for American and the rest of the industry. Airlines suffered from terrorist attacks, global pandemics and recessions that have curtailed air travel. Oil

Paint Continued from B1 Oregonians accumulate an estimated 800,000 gallons of leftover paint every year, according to the Product Stewardship Institute, an environmental nonprofit.

Most paint today is pretty safe, says Timm Schimke, solid waste director at Deschutes County, but can contain small amounts of toxic solvents. Latex paint is classified as hazardous waste by DEQ because putting liquids into a landfill makes it easier for toxins to leach into groundwater. Oil-based paint is considered hazardous because

Baggage is positioned for loading onto an American Airlines plane at the Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport in Texas on Friday.

American’s executives argued that being smaller will allow their airline to be more nimble and that they would not be forced into making a rash move or blindly follow the industry’s matchmaking trend. prices soared. For every dollara-barrel increase in the price of oil, American’s annual fuel costs increased by $70 million. Fares, meanwhile, have been kept in check because of pressure from low-cost competitors.

As a result, American was profitable for only three of the last 10 years. It racked up losses of $10 billion over that period.

Arpey defends his record. “I still believe in principles in a business that will often push you to compromise your principles,” he said. “I believe in the long run it will serve our institution and our stakeholders that we honored

our commitment to our creditors, funded our pension plans and have done our very best to do everything consensually. But that remains to be seen.”

The company anticipates that once other airlines start to renegotiate their contracts, labor costs will rise through the industry, narrowing American’s cost disadvantage. That, in turn, may put more pressure on rival airlines to increase fares.

Michael Boyd, an aviation consultant, said American had a strong domestic network and dominant routes to South America. He also praised the company’s

it’s flammable.

Paint manufacturers actually approached Oregon legislators about the experimental producer responsibility law, which they aim to make standard across the country. The law increases costs by the same amount across all brands of paint, so manufacturers are somewhat protected from price jostling in the wake of regulation.

Also, paint manufacturers will save hassle and money by introducing a producer responsibility standard on their terms before states pass individual laws, according to Rick Volpel, who spent 30 years at DEQ before becoming director of PaintCare.

Most of the industry response

has been positive, although there has been some grumbling about big government, Volpel said.

Paint contractors will pay higher prices, but they’ll just pass those costs onto their customers, says Rob Chapman, a paint contractor in Bend for 25 years. He says customers already willingly pay more to be green by buying paint with low levels of volatile organic compounds, or VOCs, which are considered toxic.

“It’s probably a good thing because we don’t want that paint to get into the ground, so somebody’s got to take charge,” he said.

Chapman has about 250 gallons of leftover paint stacked

decision to buy new fuel-efficient planes and ground less efficient ones.

“All the talk where they have to find a domestic partner, and where they have to be the biggest, does not make a lot of sense,” Boyd said. “Remember, the brontosaurus was a really big dinosaur.”

While American has not ruled out a merger, its executives have said on many occasions that they feel no need to consolidate.

Instead, the airline is counting on its international alliance with Oneworld to catch up with Delta and United, which have been able to cash in on their competing alliances for years.

American’s application for antitrust immunity for a joint venture across the Atlantic with British Airways, first submitted 13 years ago, was granted this year by the Transportation Department, and European authorities are also expected to give their green light this year.

American hopes to replicate its major cities strategy in the United States by focusing on a handful of major global hubs — including Hong Kong, London and Tokyo.

“If you spread yourself too thinly, you win fewer battles,” said Dan Garton, American’s chief marketing officer. He said that it was more valuable for American to add flights to London and expand its depth of service than to stretch itself to smaller markets like Venice or Kiev. “We try to fly to markets that have the biggest bang for our bucks,” he said.

neatly in his shop. He throws paint out after about a year, he says, although it lasts for a few years if it’s kept warm. He has been trucking between 50 and 250 cans a year to Knott Landfill, where Deschutes County recycles the paint at no cost to him.

Larger contractors don’t qualify for the county program and have to pay to get rid of their paint. Under the new PaintCare program, however, those larger contractors will be able to dispose of their paint for free, as will any member of the public.

Foreclosure Continued from B1 Many analysts have been forecasting home prices will dip again as more of these homes go up for sale at deeply discounted prices.

“It’s certainly a weight on the economy,” said Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody’s Analytics, who predicts home prices will fall about 5 percent and hit the bottom next spring. “Nothing works all that well in the economy when house prices are falling.”

Federal tax credits boosted home sales this spring but they expired last month. As a result, mortgage applications to purchase homes fell to the lowest level in 13 years this week, the Mortgage Bankers Association said in a separate report Wednesday.

The latest foreclosure figures from the trade group are adjusted for seasonal factors.

For example, heating bills and holiday expenses tend to push mortgage delinquencies up near the end of the year.

Many of those borrowers become current on their loans again by spring.

Without adjusting for seasonal factors, the delinquency numbers dropped, as they normally do from the winter to spring.

More than 4.6 percent of homeowners were in foreclosure, also a record. But that number, which is not adjusted for seasonal factors, was up only slightly from the end of last year.

Jay Brinkmann, the trade group’s chief economist, said the foreclosure crisis appears to have stabilized. Seasonal adjustments may be exaggerating the change from the previous quarter, he added.

“I don’t see signs now that it’s getting worse, but it’s going to take a while,” he said.

“A bad situation that’s not getting worse is still bad.”

The Obama administration’s $75 billion foreclosure prevention program has bare-

“I don’t see signs now that it’s getting worse, but it’s going to take a while. A bad situation that’s not getting worse is still bad.”

— Jay Brinkmann, Mortgage Bankers Association

ly dented the problem.

About 25 percent of the 1.2 million homeowners who started the program over the past year had received permanent loan modifications as of last month. About 23 percent of those enrolled dropped out during a trial phase that lasts at least three months.

Many more are in limbo.

The administration’s program hasn’t been able to help Dan Felipe, 61, of Winton, Calif.

He fell into financial trouble as the economy went south. So he took out $70,000 in loans to keep his business afloat.

In danger of losing his home, he tried to get a mortgage modification from Bank of America.

The bank signed him up for the government foreclosure plan last August, but hasn’t lowered his mortgage payment permanently.

“I was never in this kind of mess,” Felipe said. “I’ve taken care of my family for the last 20 years.”

A Bank of America spokeswoman said Felipe’s mortgage appears to not qualify for the Obama program. She said the bank will re-examine his case and consider him for other alternatives.

911 board and county come to an agreement, the changes would take place sometime after that.

“It’s a concept at this point and nothing more,” Huhn said Wednesday.

The 911 board includes representatives of agencies that use the dispatch service: the Deschutes County sheriff and fire and police chiefs from Bend and Redmond, as well as two positions that rotate among police and fire officials from districts in rural Deschutes County.

The 911 district already contracts with the county for work including building maintenance, human resources, finance and legal services, Jordan wrote in an e-mail. The county also has the resources to search for a new 911 director more quickly than the district, Jordan said in a Tuesday meeting.

The district has not begun its search for a new director, since some board members want to decide first whether to hand daily oversight duties to the county.

and artistic director, Janet Kingsley, 57, said the program helps to preserve art education for students whose schools have slashed art classes.

“From what we hear from the teachers, the after-school

students really look forward to it,” Kingsley said. “The fact that it’s followed by a meal, it feels like a party. What better way to spend time together in creating art, and than sharing a meal?”

There are about 15 students from R.E. Jewell Elementary School that participate in the program on Tuesdays.

And about 13 students from seven other elementary schools in Bend participate on Thursdays.

Local police and fire chiefs who head Deschutes County’s 911 district decided this week to begin negotiating with county officials to transfer oversight of daily operations to the county government.

Currently, the 911 governing board of police and fire officials oversees day-to-day operations at the district.

“This has been problematic in that all of the (board) have their own agencies to run and there is no clear definition as to how to effectively provide consistent oversight,” former Bend Police Chief and 911 Interim Director Andy Jordan wrote in an e-mail.

“The big change is that the daily operational oversight would shift from the (911 board) to the County Administrator,” Jordan wrote.

On Tuesday, the 911 board told Bend Fire Chief Larry Huhn, the current chairman of the board, to ask the county to come up with a draft agreement for the changes sometime in June. If the

BEND CITY COUNCIL

City may add to exclusion offenses in downtown

By Scott Hammers The Bulletin

The Bend City Council approved changes to the city’s exclusion policy Wednesday night, but plans to return to the issue soon to expand the list of activities that can trigger a 90-day ban from certain public places.

In parks or the breezeway and plaza area in downtown Bend, individuals cited or arrested for one of several offenses, ranging from assault to minors in possession of tobacco, can be issued an exclusion notice bar-

ring them from passing within 500 feet of the location where they were cited for 90 days.

Those who return face charges of second-degree trespassing.

With the changes approved Wednesday, individuals who receive an exclusion notice would have five days to appeal the exclusion in court, or it would go into effect on the sixth day. Assistant City Attorney Gary Firestone said the provision could protect the city from a legal challenge on the grounds that exclusion policies infringe on the right to due process.

Councilors quizzed Bend Police Lt. Ken Stenkamp on how the policy was used in the past.

Stenkamp said most exclusions have been for drug-related activity or assaults, and that police have tried to be even-handed and issue an exclusion notice to every person they cite for a covered offense.

Councilor Oran Teater asked if the city could slightly expand the exclusion zone to take in a portion of the sidewalks on the Wall Street side of the breezeway. Stenkamp said the breezeway provided a more read-

ily identifiable boundary for the exclusion zone, and said police cannot cite people for “camping,” in Teater’s words, on the sidewalk.

“Part of the problem we have with that area is a lot of the behavior is protected free speech, and it limits what we can do,” Stenkamp said.

Stenkamp said Bend Police have historically issued most of their exclusion orders in the spring and early summer, and that seems to have the desired effect.

4 injured in crash on Reed Market Road A portion of Southeast Reed Market Road in Bend was closed Wednesday after a two-vehicle crash that resulted in four people being sent to the hospital.

The crash took place around 1:30 p.m., at Reed Market Road between Southeast Fargo Lane and Pettigrew Road.

An eastbound Nissan Altima driven by John L. Miller, 26, of Bend, went off the shoulder of the road, then crossed into the westbound lane as Miller attempted to correct. The Nissan struck a westbound Ford pickup driven by Thomas M. Espil, 61, of Bend. Miller was ejected from his vehicle, and his passenger, Nicole J. Strong, 22, of Bend, was trapped in the vehicle.

Bend firefighters cut off the top and a door of the Nissan to remove Strong. Miller, Strong, and two children in the back seat, 2-year-old Savannah Miller and 5-month old Chloe Miller, were transported to St. Charles Bend for treatment of non-lifethreatening injuries. Espil was not hurt.

Bus driver not indicted in deaths of pedestrians

By William McCall The Associated Press

PORTLAND — A Portland bus driver will not face any criminal charges for hitting five pedestrians on a downtown crosswalk and killing two of them.

A Multnomah County grand jury on Wednesday declined to indict TriMet bus driver Sandi Day, 48, who struck the group of two men and three women while making a left turn just before midnight on April 24.

Jenee Hammel, 26, of Gresham, and Danielle Sale, 22, of Vancouver, Wash., died under the wheels of the 17-ton bus.

Hammel’s father, Robert Hammel, called the grand jury’s decision “unbelievable� and “ridiculous.�

He said he is considering a lawsuit against TriMet, the largest transit agency in the state. “It was a totally illegal turn and she was not indicted on anything,� Robert Hammel said. “What a joke.�

TriMet General Manager Fred Hansen called the accident “an unbelievable tragedy� and said the agency is conducting a comprehensive safety review.

An eight-page report by Chuck Sparks, senior deputy district attorney, provided details of the accident but concluded “it is not chargeable as criminally negligent homicide.�

Sparks noted that most vehicular homicides that result in criminal charges are more serious manslaughter cases because they involve intoxicated drivers who also engage in other traffic offenses, including speeding, making unsafe passes and running stop signs or red lights. “Criminally negligent homicide cases typically involve this same level of bad driving, but usually without intoxication,� Sparks said in the report.

He noted Day was not intoxicated, was not taking any prescription medication and was not using her cell phone.

The report said police issued appropriate traffic citations to Day, who remained on administrative leave pending the outcome of an internal TriMet review.

O Dudley, Kitzhaber hit campaign trail

By Tim Fought The Associated Press

PORTLAND — As Oregon’s candidates for governor hit the trail Wednesday for nearly six months of campaigning, significant differences emerged between the men who won their party’s primaries Tuesday night.

One of the major ones, so far, appears to be about a foot.

“Well, I’m a lot shorter,” Democrat John Kitzhaber said when asked at a campaign stop about differences between himself and former NBA player Chris Dudley, who won the Republican primary Tuesday and stands between 6-foot-10 and 6-foot-11.

Kitzhaber, who puts himself around 5-foot-11, easily won his primary.

The two wasted no time Wednesday debating whether the former governor’s experiences were better qualifications than the “outsider” perspective promised by the former pro basketball player and recent financial adviser.

At his stop at the Talking Drum Bookstore and Reflections Coffee Shop, Dudley said Kitzhaber had first won election during the Carter administration.

“Do you have to be a government insider to be governor? I say no,” Dudley said.

Kitzhaber was also in north Portland, at a middle school that has built a low-energy alternative to the common portable classroom. He was touting his idea of a borrowing program to finance energy conservation in schools across the state and create jobs.

The former legislator and twoterm governor outlined his take on the experience-versus-newcomer argument Dudley and Kitzhaber are likely to play out in the more than five months until the November election.

“I understand he’s a really nice guy,” Kitzhaber said.

But, “he hasn’t had much direct experience,” he said.

Woman sues over salmonella illness

With Portland Trailblazers jersies hanging on the wall behind him, Oregon Republican gubernatorial candidate and former Trailblazer Chris Dudley speaks to the media during a campaign stop at the Boys and Girls Club on Wednesday in Portland.

ROSEBURG — A Roseburg woman has filed suit against a Mexican restaurant linked to a salmonella outbreak.

The lawsuit filed Wednesday in Douglas County states Melissa Surmon suffered severe abdominal pain and spent four days in the hospital last month after eating a take-out order from the Los Dos Amigos restaurant in Roseburg.

The county health department said Wednesday there have been 30 confirmed cases of salmonella illness tied to the restaurant.

Salmonella bacteria can cause diarrhea, fever and vomiting.

The suit says Surmon is still feeling the effects of her illness.

She seeks at least $100,000 in a jury trial.

Man kills self after chase near Molalla MOLALLA — Clackamas County sheriff’s officers say a man suspected of robbing a Canby drug store shot and killed himself after he stopped his pickup just north of Molalla.

Detective Jim Strovink tells The Oregonian that the shooting Tuesday night ended a long standoff between 23-year-old Sean David Kennedy of Canby and the county’s SWAT team.

Strovink says officers began chasing the truck after Dave’s Prescription Shop in Canby was robbed earlier Tuesday.

The detective says that during the standoff, the man intermittently held a handgun to his head, smoked from a bong and swallowed pills.

Deputies fatally shoot suspect in stabbing HAPPY VALLEY — The Clackamas County sheriff’s office says two deputies fatally shot a man armed with a knife early Wednesday at a Happy Valley apartment building.

Deputies found the man’s wife with multiple stab wounds in their apartment.

The sheriff’s office says 23-year-old Andrew Michael Meade died at a Portland hospital, while the 25-year-old woman is in serious condition but improving.

A state medical examiner determined that Meade died from three gunshot wounds to the upper torso.

Deputies were called to the apartments shortly after midnight by a guard who heard a woman screaming. Dispatchers also received a call from a woman who said her husband was attacking her.

The sheriff’s office says the man confronted deputies in a stairwell, refused to obey orders and was shot when he moved toward them.

In Medford, high court hears arguments in Wal-Mart case

By Paris Achen (Medford) Mail Tribune

MEDFORD — Dressed in choir robes bearing North Medford High School’s Tornado mascot, Oregon Supreme Court justices heard oral arguments Tuesday in a 6-year-old case in which a citizens group is challenging a decision by the city of Medford to allow construction of a Walmart Supercenter store on South Pacific Highway.

No decisions were made in the case, and it’s unclear when an opinion will be issued.

Tuesday marked the first time in 20 years the state’s highest court held hearings in Medford and the first time in 10 years the court has agreed to hear a case on land use.

Petitioners Ivend Holen and Medford Citizens for Responsible Development are contesting a Court of Appeals ruling that the city’s decision to permit WalMart to build without a comprehensive traffic impact study did not violate the city’s land development code.

The appeals court overturned a decision by the Land Use Board of Appeals, which concluded that under city ordinances WalMart should have been required to complete the comprehensive study.

The Supreme Court wanted to answer the question of whether LUBA must defer to a local government’s interpretation of its own land-use regulations and whether the land board must defer to interpretations that show the local government is inconsistent with the code provisions.

Ken Helm, the attorney for Medford Citizens for Responsible Development, argued that the city cherry-picked its land development code to allow the development, ignoring a part that states

Oregon Supreme Court Justices, from left, Virginia Linder, Rives Kistler, W. Michael Gillette, Paul De Muniz, Thomas Balmer and Martha Lee Walters listen to lawyers presenting their arguments in the WalMart case Tuesday at North Medford High School in Medford. a comprehensive traffic study is required for development.

Justice Rives Kistler asked whether there should be a dispute if there were two plausible interpretations of the city’s code, and the city simply chose one of them.

“This is not just a competition between two plausible readings of the code,” Helm replied, arguing that the city’s interpretation was in contrast to the code.

Medford City Attorney John Huttl said the city has a few codes that apply to development, and some codes clarify and trump others.

He said the city was justified within the law to interpret its code the way it did. Its code also gives the city discretion to require a comprehensive traffic study, if it believes a development will generate significant traffic, Huttl told the court.

Justice Thomas Balmer said he was inclined to agree with the

city unless Helm could point to something in the city’s interpretation that explicitly contradicts the city code.

Helm argued part of the city code says that development is not permitted unless the developer conducts a traffic impact study and submits to site review.

Justice Martha Walters said that from her understanding, the word “development” was a defined term and asked whether, then, it wasn’t subject to that particular code.

“But ‘development’ could be applied in a way that could define 13 different types of action,” Huttl said, suggesting that it would not be reasonable that all 13 actions could be subject to a traffic impact study.

Six of the court’s seven judges were present at the hearing. Justice Robert D. Durham was absent but will listen to a recording of the arguments at a later date and vote on it.

Officials: Blind man made up cane theft OREGON CITY — Authorities say a blind man was lying when he reported that his cane was stolen by giggling teenagers near a light-rail platform.

Detective Jim Strovink of the Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office says relatives of 40-year-old James Davis contacted authorities Tuesday after seeing a story about the theft on the news.

The relatives told investigators that the Vancouver, Wash., man is legally blind, but has “developmental issues” and a history of not telling the truth.

Strovink says surveillance video from the platform did not show an assault. Prosecutors will decide whether to file charges against Davis.

Portland mayor revises budget for horse patrol PORTLAND — Portland Mayor Sam Adams says he has revised his proposed budget to save the police horse patrol and cold case unit.

The mayor said Tuesday that new Police Chief Mike Reese helped find other cuts in administration and overhead to restore funding for 25 officers, including the school resource officer program.

The mounted patrol also received a $100,000 private donation.

Time for Flaherty to mend fences

A

fter more than two decades on the job, Deschutes County District Attorney Mike Dugan succumbed this week to challenger Patrick Flaherty. There’s no shortage of

explanations for Dugan’s ouster, including his controversial support of Ballot Measures 66 and 67, the treatment of David Black and, of course, the recent smear campaign alleging a sexual discrimination problem in his office.

Ultimately, though, one thing matters above all else: Dugan is out, and Flaherty is in. What now?

To a large extent, that depends upon Flaherty. And he’s created some problems for himself. Flaherty’s most potent political weapon was probably Dugan’s decision to stump for the two tax measures, which were unpopular locally. But as much as Dugan’s politicking may have irritated voters, it’s largely irrelevant to the actual function of the District Attorney’s Office.

The county DA is really an elected administrator, hiring and managing staff and guiding the general direction of the office.

As a manager, Flaherty has made one significant mistake already. He did nothing to discourage the unproven rumors about sexual discrimination in the District Attorney’s Office.

In fact, he encouraged these rumors himself. Spreading this perception may have helped him win Tuesday’s election, but it insulted the very staff he’ll now have to oversee as district attorney. These are the people who do the office’s heavy lifting, and if Flaherty’s smart he’ll waste no time trying to win their support. That won’t be easy.

Difficult isn’t impossible, however.

In the interest of his staff and the office he’s managed for so long, we hope Dugan puts aside his differences with Flaherty (and Flaherty his differences with Dugan) to effect a smooth transition. Nobody will be well-served by a mass exodus of experienced prosecutors. Deschutes County residents voted for a new district attorney on Tuesday, not for a purge of the entire office.

Building fee increase could slow recovery W ith the local economy in a fragile start toward recovery, nourishing that progress must be a prime consideration for all government actions.

That thought should be front and center as Deschutes County and the city of Bend decide if they will raise building and planning fees.

Before the recent downturn, the county planning department was mostly self-supporting, paying its costs with the fees collected from the construction industry. As the downturn gathered steam, several rounds of layoffs were needed to maintain a rough match between income and expenses. Eventually, even with staffing cut to half of what it was two years ago, and a 25 percent increase in fees charged to builders, the county general fund had to support the department with approximately $1.6 million in the current budget year.

Now the county wants to cut that support sharply down to $516,200 and fill part of the gap by raising builders’ fees again, this time by enough to bring in an additional 15 percent in revenue. Individual fee increases would vary, but officials estimate an increase of about $183 on a home valued at $140,000. That’s on top of the existing fees of about $1,200.

The city of Bend is also considering

The builders, represented by the Central Oregon Builders Association, oppose the increases, saying the recovery is too small and fragile.

a 15 percent increase in building fees.

The builders, represented by the Central Oregon Builders Association, oppose the increases, saying the recovery is too small and fragile. They say they’ll put up with slower service to avoid fee hikes. That slower service could result from layoffs the county says would be needed to avoid the proposed increase.

There’s no doubt the county and city face significant financial challenges, and should be looking for every opportunity to cut costs and increase income.

But the best way to increase revenue is to get the economy back on its feet. Slowing the recovery of the building industry — the engine of prosperity in this region in recent decades — isn’t the way to accomplish that.

County and city budgeters should find the money elsewhere or make whatever cuts are needed.

My Nickel’s Worth Arizona profiling The U.S. Census Bureau estimates there are 2 million legal aliens and/ or U.S. citizens of Latin American descent currently living in Arizona, while according the Pew Hispanic Center there are 500,000 illegal immigrants. Therefore, the cops in Arizona in a random stop will be wrong four out of five times, assuming they are stopping someone who “looks like an illegal alien.”

To all you tea party members out there who think the government should be smaller and stay out of our lives: Why aren’t you out there protesting this violation of civil rights and government intrusion?

If this law included a random stoppage of elderly white Protestant men and women with ridiculous hats and misspelled signs, then we can believe you would be out in full force.

If you are truly sincere in your cause, then you shouldn’t pick your fights only when Fox News tells you to.

Unsustainable For the sake of my argument, let’s say a taxpayer is not someone who uses taxpayers’ dollars to pay their taxes.

All small-business owners and employees, construction workers, wait-

resses — all non-public workers — are the true taxpayers. All people who receive their paychecks from the taxpayers we shall refer to as non-taxpayers. This group is made up of teachers, judges, police officers, politicians, firefighters, etc. It includes all government workers, even construction workers who work on prevailing-wage jobs because these projects are entirely funded by tax dollars.

The system is so unbalanced it cannot work. This is why every form of government has a deficit. Bad programs like PERS, traffic studies, highway deer crossings, signs along the highways telling us “our tax dollars are being put to work” are just a few reasons the state never has enough money.

No one wants to do anything that is not in their best interests. Measures 66 and 67 passed because there are now more non-taxpayers voting than there are taxpayers, and this is a truly frightening thought.

When the non-taxpayers make the rules, the system breaks. It shows in every budget at every level of government that the people who do not pay taxes cannot and will not budget.

No cancer risk In response to Marie Annette’s latest inflammatory abortion screed (“Providing abortions is incompatible with

real health care,” April 29), I will quickly refute her most outrageous statement that “ …abortion also increases the risk of breast cancer 40 percent, as a National Cancer Institute researcher has recently admitted.”

Anyone who wants the facts can go to the National Cancer Institute’s website at www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/ factsheet/risk/abortion-miscarriage.

Here you will find this statement: “The newer studies consistently showed no association between induced and spontaneous abortions and breast cancer risk.” Period.

Make BP pay I hope there will be maximum pressure on BP to pay for the costs of both controlling the Gulf oil disaster and paying for its impacts. This is likely going to cost billions if it is not controlled stat.

We taxpayers bailed out big finance and got nothing for it. Just bonuses to self-important people — many of whom bear responsibility for the foolish lending policies and financial obfuscation that lead to the need for the bailout. No recirculating the money in the form of loans to deserving small businesses. That was appalling.

No bailout of big oil now. Please!

Gabon struggles to become an eco-tourism destination T NICHOLAS

he moment I fell in love with Gabon was when my companions and I walked along the beach at sunset: an endless strip of white sand with no one in sight as far as the eye could see in any direction. Then we spotted movement, and we realized we were sharing the beach after all.

With three elephants.

The elephants had an animated conversation among themselves, presumably about the rare sighting of human beings, then ambled off into the rain forest to tell their friends.

This is my annual win-a-trip journey, in which I take a university student with me on a reporting trip to Africa. The winner this year is Mitch Smith, a University of Nebraska student who had never been outside the United States before. (He is writing about his trip on my blog, nytimes.com/ontheground).

Readers have sometimes complained that my win-a-trip journeys focus on the wretchedness of the developing world — warlords, malnourished children, maternal mortality. Frankly, I’ve always thought these critics had a point. So Mitch and I are starting this trip by cov-

ering an African triumph: Gabon’s bold steps to preserve its natural heritage.

Gabon has plenty of problems, including corruption and misspent oil revenues, but it is also covered by dense, uninhabited forest teeming with wildlife.

In 2002, the government set aside more than one-tenth of the country for national parks — in one step, making Gabon a leader in wildlife conservation.

“Gabon is definitely a special place,” said Sebastiaan Verhage, an official here with the World Wildlife Fund, which is helping Gabon preserve its parks. “Where else do you see elephants roaming on the beach, buffalo on the beach, hippos in the surf, humpback whales mating just off the coast, the most important leatherback turtle nesting site in the world, one of the few last refuges for lowland gorillas? Its name of ‘the last Eden,’ ‘the last paradise on earth’ — that’s not too far-fetched.”

The head of the national parks is Lee White, a conservation specialist of Scottish origin. And the technical director is an American, Michael Fay, who famously walked across Gabon in 2000.

President Ali Ben Bongo, who took

KRISTOF over last year from his late father, seems enthusiastic about developing a “Green Gabon.” He told me he would like to deepen the environmental protections and build up infrastructure so that Gabon can become an eco-tourism destination.

For now, that’s a problem. Gabon set aside the parks partly in hopes of diversifying its economy (it is dependent on oil, which is slowly running out) and becoming an African version of Costa Rica, bringing in revenue from tourism.

But so far the economic bet isn’t paying off.

Very few foreign tourists are coming, because of the distance and the lack of modern hotels. Mitch and I ate lunch at one of the restaurants aiming for tourists, and afterward saw the staff clean-

ing our plates in the lagoon.

What’s more, thick forest isn’t great terrain to spot wildlife. On one walk along an elephant trail, Mitch and I smelled elephants all around us but never actually spotted them. (Elephants here normally are curious but shy — unless they’ve been nibbling on a root prized among local humans for its hallucinogenic properties, in which case be sure to accord them right of way).

Still, following elephant footprints through an untouched forest is magical.

Here in the rain forest, humans seem less the masters of the ecosystem than components of it, along with others.

Like gorillas.

I ran into Chloe Cipolletta, a gorilla expert I had met in the Central African Republic in 2006 on my first win-a-trip journey. Cipolletta was advising on a plan to bring tourists to visit gorillas in Gabon, and she mentioned offhand that some primates self-medicate herbally.

Development experts have been raving in recent years about the health benefits of deworming people in poor countries — but gorillas are way ahead of us. There is a furry forest plant that

gorillas occasionally eat, despite evident distaste, making faces and spitting bits of it out. So why do they eat it? Cipolletta said the plant turns out to be a natural medication that kills intestinal parasites, and the gorillas are deworming themselves.

One sobering truth is that the people who gush about gorillas or elephants usually are Americans and Europeans.

For local people, many of them very poor despite the country’s oil wealth, conservation can be an inconvenience.

While visiting Loango, we encountered an outspoken young village chief, Evelyne Kinga, who protested that she’d rather elephants were dead than eating her cassava plants.

“The parks are for foreigners, or for rich Gabonese,” she said. “They’re not for ordinary people like me.”

That’s a real tension, and I don’t know whether Gabon can pull this off and monetize its spectacular forest the way it could monetize timber. But for the world’s sake, I’m hoping that it will.

Lopez Arellano served twice as president of Honduras

By Douglas Martin New York Times News Service

Oswaldo Lopez Arellano, who twice served as president of Honduras and was its top military leader for nearly two decades, died on Sunday in Tegucigalpa, the country’s capital. He was 88.

The cause was prostate cancer, his family said in a statement, according to The Associated Press.

Lopez Arellano was a lieutenant colonel in the Honduran Air Force when he helped lead a military coup that overthrew the dictator Julio Lozano Diaz in 1956. He became minister of defense in a government led

by President Ramon Villeda Morales. In 1963, Lopez Arellano led a coup against Villeda Morales and became president himself. In 1971, Lopez Arellano stepped aside to make way for another civilian president.

He led a coup less than a year later and again assumed the presidency.

Reverend Richard G. ‘Dick’ Metz October 26, 1946 - May 13, 2010 Reverend Richard G. ‘Dick’ Metz died peacefully at home on May 13, after a 2½ year struggle with pancreatic cancer. Pastor Dick was a beloved husband, father, stepfather, grandfather and pastor.

He lived life to its fullest, even playing golf with Rev. Richard G. stepson, “Dick” Metz Greg and friends, ten days before his death.

Pastor Dick, as he was affectionately known, was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota. He graduated from Richfield High School in 1964, with a hockey scholarship to Cornell University in New York. In 1971, he attained his BA from Augsburg College, followed by an MBA from the University of St. Thomas and his Master of Divinity from Luther Seminary, all in Minnesota.

He served in military service with the US Army Reserve, 5501st US Army Hospital Unit, Ft. Snelling.

Dick was a second career pastor. It had always been his desire to become a pastor, and his call came after an illustrious career in business.

This included Plant Controller, G.H. Bass Co; Leisure Dynamics, Inc., Assistant Treasurer; Stevenson & Associates, Inc., Vice President of Finance; Axia, Inc., Controller, Dave Fischbein Co.; The Toro Company, Controller, H I Div.; American Agco, Inc., Corporate Controller and

Secretary; and during seminary, Lutheran Brotherhood, Special Projects Consultant.

Pastor Dick's Ordination in 1997 took him to his first call in Heppner, OR. In 2000, he moved to Zion Lutheran Church in Redmond, OR, where he served until September, 2009 when he went on disability.

His community service included St. Charles Hospital, the Oregon Synod-ELCA, Dean of High Desert Cluster.

Being a pastor was Dick's passion, and sermon delivery, his gift. Zion Lutheran moved into a beautiful new sanctuary in 2004. The loving relationship he shared with the congregation made for a very successful ministry.

Pastor Dick is survived by his wife, Jean Martinco; son, Ken Metz; son, Tim Metz and grandson, Drew; stepson, Todd (Laura) Schwartz; stepson, Greg (Ann) Schwartz and grandchildren, Jennifer and Stephen; stepdaughter, Dawn (Quay) Richerson and grandchildren, Jordan Jean, Jacob and Jared; two sisters, Sandy and Wendy, their husbands and children.

A service will be held at Zion Lutheran Church, 1113 SW Black Butte, Redmond at 11:00 a.m. Sat., May 22, followed by a reception at the Redmond Community Church, 237 NW 9th Street.

JOHN SHEPHERD-BARRON INVENTED THE ATM

Walker Mahurin, 91, fighter pilot in 2 wars

By Richard Goldstein New York Times News Service

Walker Mahurin, one of the leading American fighter pilots of World War II, who downed enemy planes in Europe and the Pacific, and, later, in the Korean War, died May 11 at his home in Newport Beach, Calif. He was 91. His death was announced by his wife, Joan.

Having arrived in Britain in January 1943 with the Army Air Forces’ 56th Fighter Group, Mahurin, who was known as Bud, flew P-47 Thunderbolts that protected American bombers on their missions.

He downed his first two German planes in August 1943, and in November he shot down three planes in a single day during a raid on Bremen, Germany, giving him a total of 10 “kills” and making him the first “double ace” in the Eighth Air Force.

On March 27, 1944, Mahurin’s fighter was hit when he took part in shooting down a German plane during a raid on Tours, France.

He bailed out, hid in a haystack and was found by a farmer who placed him in the hands of the French Resistance, which arranged his return to England.

When he returned to the United States in June 1944, his combat days were seemingly over. Since he might be forced to provide information about the French underground if shot down again by the Germans and captured, he was not permitted to fly over Europe any longer.

But he obtained a transfer to the Pacific theater and shot down a Japanese plane in the Philippines, piloting a P-51 Mustang.

By the war’s end, Mahurin had been credited with 20.75 kills, the fraction representing shared

It’s followed by a free art lesson for the students, then their families join them for a meal. The program began on April 7. It will end on May 27. Another group of students and adults meet on Sundays at Bend’s Community Center to learn about arts and drama.

Students have been learning about different art techniques, like mixing primary color paints to create secondary colors. Students have also been in-

A bank customer puts her check card into an automatic teller machine outside a bank in central London on Jan. 19, 1968. The first automatic teller machine was installed in London in 1967. John Shepherd-Barron, who is credited with inventing the machine, died in Scotland on Saturday after a brief illness. Shepherd-Barron, a Scotsman, was 84.

Firestone said he would come back to the council soon with a proposal to add five additional items to the list of excludable offenses — theft, graffiti, arson, reckless burning and strangulation.

In other business, councilors discussed a proposal that would have the council play a larger role in the city’s purchasing and contracting decisions.

Under the plan, the City Council would function as the “local

contract review board,” which would be required to approve any city expenditure of more than $100,000. Under current policy, only purchases that have not been funded in the budget require council consent.

Gwen Chapman, the city’s purchasing manager, said the city manager would retain the authority to approve large purchases in the case of an emergency, such as a broken water main.

The council would be asked to approve the emergency expense later.

City Manager Eric King said the proposal is scheduled to go before the council for a vote on June 2.

Continued from C1 Bend Police Chief Sandi Baxter said she is interested in handing over responsibility for operations to the county, but wants to make sure police and fire officials can still give input on 911’s operations, through some type of board.

COCC Continued from C1 “At Walla Walla Community College they’ve gone through some of the same growth issues, just not as dramatically as we have,” he said.

To deal with the high number of students searching for available courses, Hilgersom supports hiring full-time faculty to take the pressure off of parttime staff and faculty.

“One of the strategies is to continue to open permanent positions as fast as possible and as readily as money allows,” Hilgersom said. “I also think

U.S. Air Force via The Associated Press

Col. Walker Mahurin of Fort Wayne, Ind., looks out from the cockpit of an F-86 Sabrejet on March 21, 1952, at an airbase in Korea. Mahurin, a fighter pilot who shot down two dozen planes in two wars and is regarded as one of the greatest aces in American history, died May 11. He was 91. credit with other fighter pilots in some downings.

He was serving in the office of the Air Force secretary when the Korean War broke out. Arriving in South Korea in December 1951, he flew F-86 Sabre jets. He had been credited with shooting down three MIG-15s, and taking part in another downing, when he set out to strafe a rail yard in North Korea on May 13, 1952.

He decided that before heading back to base he would shoot up a truck he had spotted in the area.

“I should never have gone after that truck,” Mahurin told the Gannett News Service in 2006. “You never want to trade a $500,000 airplane for a $50,000 truck. I figured, well, I’d go shoot that up and then I’ll have a good story to tell the boys at the officers’ club when I get back to base.

And of course I never got back.”

Mahurin was hit by anti-aircraft fire. He made a crash landing in a rice paddy, breaking his arm, and was captured. For the next 16 months — a period that extended beyond the armistice — he was subjected to brutal questioning and psychological torment as a prisoner of war.

The Communists were trying to get downed American airmen to sign confessions that they were committing germ warfare in bombing runs.

Mahurin resisted his captors and tried to commit suicide, but he was among many American airmen who finally relented.

“Bud Mahurin at last agreed to write a ‘confession’ so full of inaccuracies and implausible information that any Western reader would know it was fiction,” John Frisbee wrote in Air Force magazine in 1997. “Unknown to him, the war had already ended.”

troduced to different artists.

On May 13, volunteer art teacher Karen Williams, 43, showed the students artwork from artist Marc Chagall. She asked the students to use Chagall’s work as an inspiration to create drawings of their favorite places.

Alan Ramirez, 6, a first-grader from Bear Creek Elementary School, took his first art class that day. He said it was fun to draw a picture of himself on the beach.

“It’s my favorite place to go, because I’ve never been there,” Alan said.

Secrea Billings, 53, waited with her mother and grandson, James, in the dining room until the boy finished up his art lesson last week. Secrea Billings, regularly visits the Family

Kitchen with her grandchildren on Sundays. She visits on Thursdays to pick up James from art class. Although the family isn’t homeless, she said the meals help with their budget.

“We own a small business, but there’s not much going on,” she said, adding that they save money by eating at the kitchen.

Secrea Billings said she hopes the Community Arts & Meals program will continue, because it gives James the freedom to express himself through art.

“I think it’s a great program, because it gives him an opportunity for his age group to do something and broaden their horizons,” she said.

center and then fired her for allegedly lying about a romantic relationship with a dispatcher’s estranged husband.

The investigator found McDonald did not create a hostile work environment. McDonald appealed her firing to the County Commission, which reassigned McDonald to a lowerranked job in the county’s Parole & Probation Department.

If the county takes on oversight of 911, county staff might conduct the search for McDonald’s replacement, Jordan wrote in an e-mail.

Huhn said that a different oversight structure at 911 would

not have changed the outcome of McDonald’s case, but it did reveal the shortfalls of having busy police and fire chiefs, who must also manage their agencies’ daily operations, in charge.

“That was a tremendous workload that was added to what everybody had on their plates,” Huhn said. “If there’s a better more efficient way to run that aspect of things, we want to explore those options.”

you want to have a good quality part-time staff and faculty, but I don’t think that should be a permanent approach.”

Middleton said Hilgersom’s communication skills will be an asset to the college.

“We were most impressed by her commitment to collaboration and communication across different groups,” he said. “She’s precise, open in communication and a person who can bring both spark and optimism to challenging situations.”

The vice president for instruction serves as COCC’s chief academic officer, in charge of various aspects like new pro-

gram development, accreditation and faculty recruitment and development.

Hilgersom will replace Walsh, who has served as the vice president for instruction since 2002, and has worked at COCC since 1990.

“She’s been a superb vice president for academic affairs,” Middleton said. “She has been very good to balance the operational needs at the institution with the high standards and sensitivity to faculty, and she will be greatly missed.”

6 indicted in Portland-area mortgage fraud Vancouver port plans sale

By William Mccall The Associated Press

PORTLAND — Six people have been indicted on federal charges involving an alleged $3.5 million mortgage fraud scheme while working for the Lighthouse Financial Group in the Portland metro area.

Joel Rosabal and Chad Amsden, both 31, were named in the first of two indictments, while the second indictment listed Amsden, Timothy Hills, 30, Misti Wallis, 32, Gerald Wallis, 42, and Jo Schermerhorn, 50.

Rosabal and Amsden were accused of a conspiracy to defraud lending institutions by making

false statements to get home loans at an inflated price, resulting in kickbacks.

The federal grand jury indictment also accused Rosabal and Amsden of using various professionals to carry out their conspiracy, including licensed real estate agents, home builders, loan officers and tax preparers.

The lending institutions that were defrauded included First Franklin Corp., Decision One Mortgage, Hyperion Capital, Millennium Funding and Ace Mortgage.

The amounts listed in a separate section of the indictment alleging wire fraud against the

pair ranged from about $89,000 to more than $543,000.

In the second indictment, Amsden and the other defendants were accused of making false statements to the former Washington Mutual Bank, or WAMU, to obtain a $664,000 construction loan using the name of the mother of Misti Wallis because of her high credit score.

Federal prosecutors said the complicated scheme was carried out from early 2006 through mid2007 before it was discovered by Internal Revenue Service criminal investigators.

All but Schermerhorn appeared in federal court Wednesday.

of land to Eugene company The Associated Press VANCOUVER, Wash. — The Port of Vancouver plans to sell up to 22 acres of industrial land to Eugene-based Farwest Steel Corp., a move that could result in up to 225 jobs.

The port said Tuesday that the distributor, processor and fabricator of specialty steel products would pay about $5 million to buy the land, then invest up to $30 million to build a facility of more than 300,000 square feet.

The Columbian newspaper re-

ported that construction could start by the second quarter of 2011.

Curtis Shuck, the port’s director of economic development and facilities, said Farwest could become one of the port’s larger employers.

Port Executive Director Larry Paulson said the port usually doesn’t work to sell land, but Farwest’s project won’t interfere with the port’s rail service and the chance to create jobs was too good to pass up.

Officials said Farwest would relocate 100 jobs to the site on Lower River Road, with plans to add another 125. The company would transfer 30 jobs from another Vancouver site, and the remainder from facilities in Tualatin and Eugene.

The new plant will indirectly create hundreds of additional jobs and generate $343,000 in yearly taxes and $2.9 million in one-time sales tax revenue during construction, port officials said.

Upper Metolius River opens to fishing May 22

Small-school state meet to start Friday

The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife is reminding anglers that the upper Metolius River opens to trout fishing this Saturday, May 22.

According to Brett Hodgson, ODFW fish biologist, a glitch in the 2010 Sport Fishing Regulations makes it appear as if the river upstream from Allingham Bridge remains closed through May 22.

The ODFW has implemented a temporary rule that will open the Metolius on May 22, when many other rivers and streams throughout the state are set to open to fishing.

The Metolius continues to be open to catch-and-release fishing only, and is restricted to fly-fishing only upstream of Bridge 99.

— From wire reports

Bulletin staff report The two-day Oregon Class 3A, 2A and 1A high school track and field championships get under way Friday morning in Monmouth at Western Oregon University’s McArthur Field.

For Culver, Tyler Funk and Joel Vega have both qualified in two events for the 2A boys meet. Funk will compete in the 300-meter hur-

dles and the pole vault, and Vega will run both the 1,500 and the 3,000.

Vega enters state with the second-best seed time in the 3,000, and Funk is the No. 2 seed in the pole vault and the No. 3 seed in the 300 hurdles.

McKaylee Speas will be the lone Culver athlete competing in the 2A girls meet. Speas advanced to

state after finishing in a three-way tie for first place in the pole vault at last week’s Tri-River Conference championships.

At the 1A meet, Gilchrist senior Ryan Stinson is expected to challenge for a state title in the pole vault after finishing second in the event a year ago. The only other Gilchrist entry in the state meet is the Grizzlies’ boys 1,600-meter

relay squad. The team of Stinson, Dillon Link, Cody Thomason and Tyler Shuey, which placed second at last week’s Mt. Skyline district meet, has the fourth-best seed time at this year’s 1A state championships.

The 3A, 2A and 1A state meets start at 11 a.m. on Friday. Admission is $10 per day for adults and $5 per day for students.

Sisters softball beats Class 5A team SISTERS — Heading into the state playoffs, Class 4A Sisters knocked off a Class 5A team in softball on Wednesday.

The Outlaws (21-5 overall) defeated Thurston, the champion of the 5A Midwestern League, 13-12. Sisters will open the Class 4A playoffs at Baker on Tuesday in a second-round game.

On Wednesday, Sisters trailed by a run heading into the bottom of the seventh inning. Down to the team’s final out, McKenzie Cooper hit a two-run single to give the Outlaws the walk-off victory.

“We didn’t get down, we just kept coming back,” said Sisters coach Tom Mauldin.

“That’s a good sign heading into the playoffs.”

Dara Kosanke, who pitched the entire game for Sisters, had four hits, and continued her streak of getting at least one hit in every game this season. Cooper had three hits for the Outlaws, as did Taylor Walker.

This colorful rainbow trout, just about to be netted, was caught with a dragonfly nymph on Crane Prairie Reservoir last week.

During its prime, Crane Prairie Reservoir was the crown jewel of Central Oregon trout-fishing lakes and a magnet to anglers.

A longtime guide in the area, John Garrison, can recall how Deschutes National Forest staff would become frustrated with local fishing guides because they would rarely take clients to any other lake.

“The Forest Service used to get mad at us because we didn’t fish anywhere else,” he said.

But that all changed 10 or so years ago, when illegally introduced fish species ravaged the rainbow trout population and fishing slowed so much that fishermen went elsewhere.

According to Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife biologist Ted Wise, stickleback minnow were the worst of the invaders, consuming nearly all of Crane Prairie’s zooplankton, a food base upon which small trout depend for growth.

“By the end of the (19)90s, fishing got pretty bad,” Wise recalled this week. “(Stickleback) went through the roof. They’re small fish, but their biomass is tremendous. They created a desert, in some respects.”

For many 13-year-old boys, the journey from childhood to manhood begins with their first job, shaving feathery whiskers or discovering girls.

But for Jordan Romero, it is unfolding in an attempt to become the youngest person to reach the summit of Mount Everest.

On Saturday he departed base camp with his father, Paul Jordan RomeRomero, and ro, who is 13, Paul’s compan- started an asion and profes- cent of Mount sional adven- Everest on ture racing Saturday. teammate, Karen Lundgren.

“This was not my idea; he’s provided the inspiration and motivation to keep it going,” Paul Romero wrote recently in an e-mail message from base camp. “Jordan is taking us on the Seven Summits quest and we are merely facilitating his wishes.”

Jordan’s attempt to climb the highest mountains on all seven continents, and particularly his attempt of Everest during the narrow window of the spring climbing season, has stimulated a rousing dialogue in the climbing community and beyond. How young is too young, and does a 13-year-old have the physical and emotional maturity to take on this extreme altitude endeavor?

And yet, Team Jordan, from Big Bear, Calif., has already climbed five of the Seven Summits over the last three years, starting with Kilimanjaro (19,340) in Africa, Elbrus (18,510) in Europe and Kosciusko (7,310) in Australia. If Jordan, who is 5 feet 10 inches and 160 pounds, crests Everest (29,035 feet), climbing Vinson Massif (16,067) in Antarctica would complete an achievement accomplished by about 200 people.

Former Yankee carves out niche back home in Oregon After his major-league career, Scott Brosius returned to coach his alma mater, Linfield College

McMINNVILLE — His World Series rings are locked away in a safe at his home, about 3,000 miles from the bright lights of the Big Apple.

Former Yankee Scott Brosius is now Coach Brosius, guiding the baseball team of his alma mater, Linfield College.

While time and distance separate him from the big leagues, Brosius is still enjoying success

— just on a different level. Way different.

“My first road trip it was like, ‘Oh yeah, I gotta take my own bag on and off the bus. Welcome to real life,’ ” he said.

The Division III Wildcats went 30-10 in the regular season to claim the Northwest Conference. Brosius, in his third year at the helm, was named the league’s coach of the year.

Linfield, ranked No. 14 by the American Baseball Coaches Association, plays host to a six-team NCAA regional this week. Second-seeded Linfield opened with a 6-1 win against fifth-seeded Mississippi College (36-10) on Wednesday. The regional winner advances to the double-elimination D-III championship in Appleton, Wis.

•Dolphins’ Marshall out until training camp: Brandon Marshall milled about the Miami Dolphins practice field, donning an orange cap and sneakers instead of a helmet and cleats. He’ll be doing a lot more of that over the next few weeks. Marshall is recovering from surgery, the details of which neither he nor Dolphins coach Tony Sparano would disclose Wednesday, when most of the wide receiver’s new teammates took part in one of Miami’s organized team activity days, or offseason practice. Sparano indicated Marshall would be back for training camp.

• Seahawks sign former Bills QB Losman: The Seahawks have signed former Buffalo Bills starting quarterback J.P. Losman. Agent Gary Wichard told The Associated Press in an e-mail Tuesday night it’s a $630,000, one-year contract, which Losman signed Wednesday.

The 29-year-old Losman threw one pass for Oakland last season after five years with the Bills, plus time in the United Football League. He would back up Matt Hasselbeck and Charlie Whitehurst in Seattle. The Seahawks also signed tight end Michael Allan, who was a seventh-round pick in the 2007 draft by Kansas City.

Baseball • Ramirez returns to Marlins’ lineup: Hanley Ramirez is back in the Florida Marlins’ lineup, after a pre-game talk with manager Fredi Gonzalez to clear the air. The reigning NL batting champion was benched Tuesday after taking shots at his manager and teammates a day after getting yanked from a game for not hustling. Gonzalez and Ramirez chatted for five or 10 minutes in the manager’s office, with the door open and Ramirez standing, several hours before Marlins played the St. Louis Cardinals. Gonzalez had two lineup cards ready in case the talk didn’t go well but Ramirez was back in the third slot. Gonzalez said Ramirez planned to apologize to teammates.

• Boston’s Ellsbury to be evaluated after rib injury: Boston Red Sox outfielder Jacoby Ellsbury will be evaluated following his rehab assignment with the Portland (Maine) Sea Dogs. Ellsbury, a Madras High and Oregon State grad, has been sidelined since injuring a rib during an outfield collision with Red Sox third baseman Adrian Beltre on April 11 in Kansas City. Ellsbury will be evaluated Wednesday in Boston. He said he “felt pretty good” after he drew a walk and scored in the first inning Tuesday night. He finished zero-for-three as Portland beat New Britain 2-1. It was the second rehab game for Ellsbury, who played Monday night for Triple-A Pawtucket.

• Red Sox put Beckett on DL: The Boston Red Sox have placed Josh Beckett on the 15-day disabled list with a lower back strain. Manager Terry Francona said Wednesday he hoped the right-hander would miss just one start and that Tim Wakefield would pitch in his place Sunday at Philadelphia. Righty reliever Joe Nelson was called up from Triple-A Pawtucket.

Sports • Documents outline arrested doctor’s contact with U.S. athletes: A sports doctor facing drug charges on both sides of the U.S.-Canada border made multiple trips to U.S. cities to meet with professional athletes and injected at least seven with human growth hormone, according to Canadian court documents. The search warrant and a supporting information filed by Canadian law enforcement in their case against Dr. Anthony Galea describe meetings with more than 20 professional athletes in New York City, Boston, Tampa Bay, Orlando, San Francisco, San Diego, Washington and Cleveland from July through September of last year. Athletes, identified only by letters of the alphabet, would receive “HGH cocktail” injections in their knees, intravenous vitamin drips and injections of the unapproved drug Actovegin, according to the documents.

Tennis • U.S. wins at World Team Cup: Bob and Mike Bryan gave the United States a 2-1 win over Spain on Wednesday by winning the decisive doubles match at the World Team Cup. It was the Americans’ second straight group stage victory, and they will play the Czech Republic for a spot in Saturday’s final. After the teams split the singles matches Tuesday, the Bryan twins beat Daniel GimenoLopez and Marc Lopez 6-3, 7-5 to end Spain’s hopes of reaching the final.

• U.S. player gets 2-year doping ban: American tennis player Wayne Odesnik was banned for two years on Wednesday, two months after pleading guilty to importing human growth hormone into Australia. Although Odesnik denied using HGH and never tested positive for the banned substance, the International Tennis Federation suspended him for possessing a prohibited substance “without a therapeutic use exemption.”

What’s the standard for measuring young stars?

By Doug Ferguson The Associated Press

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. — Adam Scott again is part of the conversation when it comes to great young players, although that probably won’t last much longer. He turns 30 in two months.

That doesn’t make him old, nor does it make him irrelevant.

If anything, it should make all those kids behind him — and there are more of them every year — take stock of what the Scott has done before turning 30, and realize that great play is measured by more than one year, much less one tournament.

Neither should great play be measured against Tiger Woods, who set the bar unreasonably high.

Scott’s 36-hole sprint in San Antonio on Sunday was his 17th victory worldwide, with seven of those on the PGA Tour (that doesn’t include a playoff win at Riviera that was shortened to 36 holes because of rain).

He has won in every full season as a pro. He has climbed as high as No. 3 in the world and played on four Presidents Cup teams. And while he has not so much as contended in a major — a glaring weakness on his resume — he is the youngest to win The Players Championship.

Most of that was forgotten over the last year when Scott endured the worst slump of his career. He pulled himself out of it on his own, however, winning the Australian Open and Texas Open over the last six months.

“I definitely questioned myself at times last year whether I was a great player or not, and I still feel I am,” Scott said. “It’s hard to maintain that for 20 years. I did a good job of it for a long time. I mean, everyone has fairly short memories

in this game. You’ve got to be out there all the time to be talked about.

“Hopefully,” he added, “I can keep going with this form and they can talk about me as one of the great players in the game.”

It’s still not as good as Sergio Garcia, who left his 20s in January and is trying to find his game.

Garcia and Scott have set a standard that young players like Rory McIlroy, Ryo Ishikawa, Anthony Kim, Dustin Johnson, Martin Kaymer, Charl Schwartzel and perhaps even Rickie Fowler should try to match.

Garcia has won 19 times around the world and reached No. 2 in the world ranking only 14 months ago. He starred on the first of five Ryder Cup teams when he was 19, the same year he made Woods sweat down the stretch in the PGA Championship at Medinah. And while he also lacks confirmation that only a major can bring, Garcia at least has been a runner-up three times and has nine finishes in the top five.

“I feel like there’s no doubt I could have done better,” Garcia said. “But people don’t realize that it is a pretty good career.”

Garcia and Scott don’t get enough credit in small part because they have yet to win a major.

And in large part because of Woods.

Even as Garcia was steadily improving and usually producing, his feats were dwarfed by a player from his own generation. Woods continues to chase the 18 majors won by Jack Nicklaus and the 82 PGA Tour victories of Sam Snead. Even more out of reach are the records that Woods established before turning 30.

He won 56 times on the PGA Tour (64 titles worldwide), 10 major championship and the career Grand Slam — twice. He was No. 1 in the

world for all but 101 weeks from when he turned pro until he celebrated his 30th birthday.

“It doesn’t matter what you do,” Garcia said.

“Everybody is going to be compared with Tiger because he’s the best. People look at Tiger, and he makes it look — at times — easy. So everybody thinks it’s easy. I’m not unhappy with what I’ve done throughout these 11 years. It’s just a matter of realizing that you can’t compare with him.”

Even as he tries to work himself out of a funk — he has fallen to No. 30 in the world and last won 20 months ago — Garcia takes pride in keeping himself among the top 10 in the world for most of his career.

“It’s not that easy to keep it going,” he said.

“That’s why what Tiger has done is so impressive. Being in the top 10 or the top 15 in the world is a big deal. And it’s definitely getting harder to stay there. With the young guys coming up, it gets tougher every year.”

The player who gets Woods’ attention at the moment is Ishikawa, the 18-year-old phenom who already has seven victories in Japan and picked up his last win by shooting a 58. McIlroy created quite the buzz with a 62 in the final round at tough Quail Hollow, only to miss the cut a week later. Fowler has the talent, although it’s hard to put him in any conversation without a victory.

All three of Kim’s victories have come against strong fields. Not to be overlooked is Johnson, still only 25, with PGA Tour victories in each of his three years on tour.

Will any of them ever be as good as Woods?

That will take more than one or two years to determine. The first step is to show they can be as good as Garcia and Scott before they leave their 20s.

• Bolt wins 100 in 9.86 seconds: Usain Bolt won the 100 meters in 9.86 seconds in his season debut at the Daegu meet in South Korea on Wednesday. The time was 0.28 seconds off the world record of 9.58 he set at last year’s world championships in Berlin. Jamaican countryman Michael Frater was second in 10.15, and American Mike Rodgers was third in 10.18.

Cycling • Italian wins stage in California: Italian rider Francesco Chicchi emerged from a mass sprint to upset Mark Cavendish and win stage 4 of the Tour of California on Wednesday, while American David Zabriskie held onto his slim overall lead. Chicchi completed the 121.5-mile ride from San Jose to Modesto in 4 hours, 55 minutes and 1 second. The Liquigas rider narrowly held off Juan Jose Haedo of Saxo-Bank and Cavendish, the HTC-Columbia rider who won the opening stage. Both had the same time as the winner. Zabriskie, riding for Garmin-Transitions, kept the lead he assumed while winning stage 3 in Santa Cruz. Michael Rogers of HTC-Columbia is seconds behind, followed by three-time defending champion Levi Leipheimer of RadioShack, who is six seconds off the pace. Leipheimer’s teammate, seven-time Tour de France winner Lance Armstrong, began the day in 12th overall but crashed on the final circuit. Armstrong was given the same finishing time as the main group because the crash occurred within the final three kilometers.

• Australian takes Giro lead: Evgeni Petrov fought through rain and windy conditions to win the 11th stage of the Giro d’Italia, and Richie Porte overtook the overall lead. Petrov finished the 163-mile leg Wednesday from Lucera to L’Aquila, the longest of this year’s Giro, in 6 hours, 23 minutes and 29 seconds. Dario Cataldo finished 5 seconds behind, while Carlos Sastre broke from the chasing pack to finish third in the same time. Porte took the pink jersey from Alexandre Vinokourov, who was unable to break free of the second group and had a punctured tire 30 miles from the finish. The Australian stayed among the lead group and finished 13th, while Vinokourov was more than 12 minutes behind. Porte leads the overall standings by 1:42 over David Arroyo Duran.

All eyes on Big Ten commissioner as expansion looms

Lottery is working, just not for the worst teams

By Andrew Seligman The Associated Press

By Brian Mahoney The Associated Press

NEW YORK — Here’s a little lottery math for you. With the NBA’s worst record, the New Jersey Nets actually had a better probability of picking fourth in the draft than first.

The Minnesota Timberwolves will be No. 4, which is exactly where the odds said they should be, despite starting in the No. 2 spot in the lottery. Got that?

“Somewhere there’s some mathematician from MIT and this all makes sense to him or her,” Timberwolves president David Kahn said. “It doesn’t make sense to me as to why we were supposed to be No. 4 in terms of the greatest odds.”

That’s the lottery: sometimes criticized, often confusing and apparently here to stay.

The Washington Wizards won Tuesday’s event and the Nets ended up third, the sixth straight year the team that needed the most help didn’t get it. So it’s easy to say the system doesn’t work.

Except the lottery wasn’t set up to help bad teams get better.

It was created so teams couldn’t get the No. 1 pick just by losing on purpose to finish with the worst record. That’s why no matter what Nets fans were saying after their disappointment, the league can counter that no overhaul is necessary.

“For us, it works well,” commissioner David Stern said. “It’s taking care of the main reason for which it was enacted.”

The team with the worst record hasn’t won the lottery since 2004, when the Orlando Magic eventually selected Dwight Howard. The Nets shrugged off their loss, with new owner Mikhail Prokhorov noting Wednesday that Michael Jordan was a No. 3 pick.

Not everyone can remain calm, however. Jerry West, then running the Memphis Grizzlies, was fuming after his team had the worst record but tumbled to fourth in the 2007 lottery, missing the chance to make the call on the Greg Oden-Kevin Durant debate.

“I understand why the process was implemented, meaning I understand the need to police teams that at the end of the season aren’t trying,” Kahn said. “But having said that, I see the flip side, too. I think this would always be much worse where if this was one of those years that there was truly a transformative player at No. 1 as there have been a mere handful of times.”

The lottery has undergone several changes since it was first used in 1985. A weighted system was implemented in 1989, and it was further tweaked starting with the ’94 lottery to give the worst team an even better chance of winning, after the Magic vaulted to the top spot in ’93 despite barely missing the playoffs.

The Nets had a 25 percent chance of finishing first, yet a 35.8 percent chance of landing at No. 4.

The Timberwolves had a 31.9 percent chance of ending up fourth, far better than the 18.8 percent odds of staying at No. 2 with a 15-67 record that was better only than New Jersey’s 12-70 mark.

Yet for whatever anger it occasionally creates, it seems the system will stay. Stern said little came from a presentation on the lottery by league president of operations Joel Litvin to the league’s board of governors last month.

“There did not seem to be any appetite for a change at this time,” Stern said.

Los Angeles Lakers guard Kobe Bryant, left, and Phoenix Suns forward Grant Hill go after a loose ball during the first half of Game 2 the NBA Western Conference finals Wednesday in Los Angeles.

Lakers hold off Suns to take 2-0 series lead

By Greg Beacham The Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — Whenever the Suns sent two defenders at Kobe Bryant, he coolly passed to an open teammate.

When Phoenix loaded up down low against Pau Gasol, the Lakers picked them apart from the perimeter.

Los Angeles’ triangle offense has the Suns running in circles after two terrific performances in the Western Conference finals — and the defending champions’ fans just couldn’t help looking ahead to a possible grand finale against Boston.

Gasol scored 14 of his 29 points in the fourth quarter, Bryant had 21 points and 13 assists, and the Lakers roared away in the final minutes for a 124-112 victory Wednesday night to claim a series lead that seems much more daunting than 2-0.

Although the Lakers took no bows after hitting better than 57 percent of their shots and scoring a jaw-dropping 252 points in the series’ first two games, it’s clear Bryant and Gasol are leading a clinic in offensive hoops against one of the NBA’s highest-scoring teams.

“We’re shooting the ball very well, moving the ball really, really well,” Gasol said. “Our bench is playing at a high level, and we’re all stepping up.”

After Bryant scored 40 points in 35 minutes in the series opener, the Suns tried to double-team him more regularly in Game 2 — so last season’s NBA finals MVP racked up the most assists by a Lakers player in a postseason game since Magic Johnson in 1996.

Bryant’s streak of six straight 30-point games ended, yet he capped his night as a creator by setting up Gasol for two tough baskets in the final minutes, with Gasol scoring with a flourish and drawing a foul each time.

“It makes the game a lot easier to have (Gasol) inside to

catch and complete plays,” Bryant said. “We’re extremely wellversed in playing against teams that double and zone, things like that.”

Ron Artest scored 18 points for the Lakers, who won their eighth straight playoff game and moved within striking distance of a tantalizing NBA finals showdown with the Boston Celtics, who lead Orlando 2-0 in the East. For the second straight game, the chants rained down from the Staples Center crowd in the final minutes: “We want Boston!”

The Lakers remained unbeaten at home in the postseason despite a much-improved effort from the Suns, who lost the opener by 21 points. Phoenix tied it at 90-all heading to the final period of Game 2, but Gasol and Bryant flawlessly led the Lakers to another high-scoring victory, handing third-seeded Phoenix its first back-to-back losses since late January.

“It’s really tough because we have so many guys on this team that can hurt you offensively,” said Lamar Odom, who had 17 points and 11 rebounds. “When we get four or five guys going offensively, it seems like our defense steps up. We do a great job of using our quickness, cutting guys off and making it hard for teams as well as putting that offensive pressure on them.”

Game 3 is Sunday night in Phoenix. But unless the Suns figure out a way to stop Los Angeles’ versatile, poised offense, Beantown and Hollywood could be just a few days away from another chapter in their storied rivalry.

“We can’t slow them down,” Phoenix coach Alvin Gentry said. “I thought we played well offensively, but every time we tried to make an adjustment to slow them down offensively, they would go somewhere else.

There’s a good reason they’re the world champs, but we’ll keep plugging away, keep trying.”

CHICAGO — For those who think he’s holding the future of college sports in his hands, Big Ten commissioner Jim Delany has a message — get a grip.

He’s seen this all before.

“I’ve had a lot of experience with expansion outside of the Big Ten,” he said.

Delany saw schools come and go during his decade as commissioner of the Ohio Valley Conference, but the stakes are a little higher this time.

The Big Ten is considering expanding from 11 teams and there’s a strong belief that any move would force changes in the Big East, Big 12 and maybe every major conference. It’s quite a position for a conference that has taken its share of hits in recent years for its perceived shortcomings on the field.

At the center of it all is Delany, a native of South Orange, N.J., attorney and former point guard at North Carolina under Dean Smith. He was relatively new to the Big Ten job back in 1991 when it added Penn State, and was the driving force behind creating what is believed to be the first conference-owned television network — a key piece in the decision on whether the Big Ten will grow again.

Delany has been at pains over the last six months to tamp down speculation about what the league might do, even while his counterparts at the Big 12 and SEC have talked about being proactive in case there’s what Notre Dame athletic director Jack Swarbrick has called a “seismic” shift.

Delany said he doesn’t see a fuss, but instead a collegiate landscape with a long history of change and schools simply trying to find their matches.

He saw it when he left the NCAA as an enforcement official to become Ohio Valley commissioner in 1979, right after the league added Akron in an effort to expand into more metropolitan areas.

Youngstown State came in two years later, and neither lasted more than 11 years. Delany saw Western Kentucky, the “bell cow of the Ohio Valley for many years,” leave for the Sun Belt Conference in 1982.

“I saw South Carolina leave the ACC while I was a student there. I saw Georgia Tech join the ACC,” Delany said this week at the league’s closely watched meetings in Chicago. “I saw Boston College leave the Big East and go to the ACC. I saw Virginia Tech leave one conference and go to another conference. I see this in many ways as institutions finding the right place for themselves.”

Yet the Big Ten appears to be in an enviable spot as it considers whether to expand for the first time since 1991 — a decision that ultimately rests with the school presidents and one that’s not expected before December at the earliest.

The conference generates more money than any other thanks in part to the Big Ten Network three years ago, with each school reportedly getting about $22 million annually. That’s about double what any other conference pays its members.

“Financially, it speaks for itself,” Wisconsin athletic director Barry Alvarez said of

the network. “Every one of our coaches can go out and recruit nationally, talk to parents regardless of where they are about being able to follow whoever they recruit.

They can watch them on TV, watch coaches’ shows. ... I think we’re just scratching the surface.

“It took so much criticism early on,” he added. “Right now, it’s fun to sit back and watch everyone look at it and realize the impact it had.”

The credit, Alvarez said, goes to Delany.

“That’s Jim’s baby,” he said.

“That was Jim’s idea. He made it all happen.”

Delany is quiet and circumspect, but has been in the headlines before. In 2005, he joined other officials in telling Congress that the Bowl Championship Series was preferable to a national championship playoff because it preserved tradition, kept the regular season relevant and wouldn’t impact academics.

He said that even while conceding that “an NFL-style football playoff would provide three to four times as many dollars to the Big Ten as the current system does. There is no doubt in my mind that we are leaving hundreds of millions of dollars on the table.”

And back when Delany was president of the Collegiate Commissioners Association in 1996, he said its membership unanimously opposed payments to college athletes.

During Delany’s 21 years, the Big Ten became the first to use instant replay for football, and it could be a trendsetter again if it decides to grow.

There is the perception that Delany and the Big Ten could set off a chain reaction.

“That may be the case, that may not be the case,” Michigan athletic director David Brandon said. “We don’t know what other conversations are taking place with other schools and other conferences. I wouldn’t assume anything as it relates to that.”

Delany mentioned a population shift to the South along with the possibility of broadening the reach of the Big Ten Network as driving forces behind any potential expansion.

That could mean that Texas, whose AD has denied any interest in leaving the Big 12, is in play. It could also mean that the Big Ten will simply try to solidify its position in the North. Or, as Delany repeatedly pointed out this week, the conference could simply stand pat.

Notre Dame, Missouri, Nebraska, Rutgers, Syracuse, Connecticut, Pittsburgh and Maryland have all been reported as possible targets along with Texas. All boast some combination of strong academics, athletic success and exposure to large markets.

Delany wasn’t about to identify front-runners or how many teams the Big Ten would add if it decided to expand.

Growth would create another set of issues, from dividing the revenue to maintaining rivalries.

One thing is clear from the Big Ten’s perspective: It doesn’t hurt to study expansion.

“There’s change throughout Division I, and I think it would be less than responsible not to look at it,” Delany said.

Americans struggling to find success in IndyCar series

By Cliff Brunt The Associated Press

INDIANAPOLIS — The day Randy Bernard was announced as the CEO of the IndyCar Series, it became clear he understood the importance of fielding competitive American drivers.

“What we have found is very important in this sport is Americans want to see Americans win,” he during his introductory press conference in February. “There’s no question about it.”

There have been few American victories lately. Only two U.S. drivers — Buddy Rice in 2004 and Sam Hornish in 2006 — have won the Indianapolis 500 in the past 10 years.

Americans dominated the series’

AUTO RACING signature event for decades before Brazilian Emerson Fittipaldi won the 1989 race. Since then, 13 of the 20 winners have come from foreign soil.

Things don’t look much better for the Americans this year.

Australia’s Will Power leads the point standings. Ryan Hunter-Reay is the top American in fourth place, and Marco Andretti (13th) and Danica Patrick (16th) are the only others in the top 20. Hunter-Reay won the Long Beach Grand Prix on April 18, but Patrick is the only other U.S. driver since the start of the 2008 season to win an IndyCar event.

Among the favorites heading into

this year’s Indy 500 are Power, threetime winner Helio Castroneves (Brazil) and Scott Dixon (New Zealand), who won the race in 2008 and drove the fastest lap in practice on Tuesday (226.549 mph) and Wednesday (226.971).

Terry Angstadt, president of IndyCar’s commercial division, wouldn’t mind seeing a few more Americans near the top.

“If we just could take out a clean sheet of paper and we had a wish list, yeah, I’d like to see more American drivers. I think that’s natural,” he said.

“But given the diversity of where we race, how we race, caring so much about diversity that it is one of our brand attributes, we really do embrace the international makeup of our field.”

Townsend Bell, who finished fourth in the Indy 500 last year and drove the fastest lap for an American on Wednesday (224.743), agrees with that assessment.

“I’m not looking for an IndyCar series that is predisposed to anything except the fastest drivers, the best guys available,” he said. “I’d love it if the best guys out there were American as well, of course. That helps our fanbase. But everybody’s got to rise up to the challenge.”

Bell said his high finish in the Indy 500 did little for his visibility.

“I know that fourth place is nice, but winning is the only thing that matters,” he said. “That’s the best lesson from last year. Just go win, and the rest takes care of itself.”

Americans, like Marco Andretti, have not had many wins in IndyCar in recent years.

AL ROUNDUP Blue Jays 3, Mariners 2 SEATTLE — Brett Cecil pitched into the seventh inning and Kevin Gregg hung on for the save as Toronto sent Seattle to its fifth straight loss. The Mariners put two runners on base with two outs in the ninth, but left fielder Fred Lewis ran down Mike Sweeney’s long fly into the alley to end it. Milton Bradley returned to the Mariners and had his fourth two-hit game of the season. He was out for two weeks after asking the team for counseling help to deal with personal and emotional issues. Seattle’s Doug Fister entered the night leading the AL with a 1.72 ERA. Then in the first four innings Fister (3-2) allowed three runs, as many as he had allowed in any of seven previous starts this season.

Rangers 4, Orioles 3 ARLINGTON, Texas — Nelson Cruz hit a sacrifice fly in the bottom of the ninth to finally give Texas the victory over Baltimore in a game in which Josh Hamilton hit a ball over the fence that wasn’t a home run. Hamilton homered in the second for the Rangers, then led off the fourth with an opposite-field shot that clearly sailed over the 14-foot fence in left and ricocheted back into play.

Second base umpire Doug Eddings signaled that the ball was still in play and Hamilton stopped with a double. Rangers manager Ron Washington came out to question the call when the umpires didn’t come together as a group. They didn’t go look at the television replay, which showed that the ball went over the fence and then hit a metal brace attached to a concrete wall supporting the video scoreboard there.

The Brewers, stuck in their longest slide since losing 10 straight late in the 2006 season, couldn’t blame this one on struggling closer Trevor Hoffman.

Phillies shortstop Ted Kazanski was the last player to do both, on Sept. 25, 1955, for Philadelphia against the New York Giants, the Elias Sports Bureau said.

angling there in 2001 — because he was not catching any fish. He and many other fishermen moved on to other Cascade lakes, such as Lava Lake and Wickiup Reservoir.

“A lot of people stopped coming because you couldn’t catch fish,” said Garrison, owner of Garrison’s Guide Service in Sunriver. “But Crane Prairie is somewhat back to where it should be.

Not all the way, but close.”

No matter how good the fishing, Crane Prairie is a kaleidoscope of high Cascade beauty.

Four snow-covered peaks rise up to the north of the sparkling reservoir, and dead jack pine trees rise out of the water all over the lake, providing cover for rainbow trout and nests for a variety of birds.

We used worms or live dragonfly nymphs as bait, depending on the rod, with six feet of leader under a bobber. Garrison said PowerBait has also been working to land big rainbows.

Fly anglers like to use chironomids under strike indicators, and some bait-fish patterns as well, including stickleback patterns, Merrick said.

Because Garrison and I each had purchased a two-rod angling license ($17), we were able to have four lines out of Garrison’s pontoon boat — perhaps doubling our chances at trout.

The license is a new offering this year by ODFW, and fishermen must already possess a regular annual angling license ($33) to

move further along into the recruiting process, the decisions they make become a bit more above that. There’s certainly a comfort level with the coaching staff that’s important, but then because they are paying for this — because we can’t scholarship them — they have to feel real good about the school and what it has to offer.”

Once they get there, Brosius doesn’t regale his players with endless stories about his glory days with the Yankees.

This, after all, is real life.

“All in all, we don’t talk a ton about that stuff. Everybody knows that I played and stuff like that,” he said. “My goal, and I think I can draw some from that experience, is to show what I’ve learned along the way.”

Continued from D1 And a dearth of trucks and trailers in the parking lot and boats on the lake.

But a decade later, those boats are back.

Could Crane Prairie be back?

“It’s definitely seen an upswing in the last four or five years,” said Dave Merrick, shop manager at Fly and Field Outfitters in Bend. “It’s going the right direction. (Anglers) have been doing pretty well.”

Reports have swirled all spring that fishing for hefty rainbow trout — for which Crane Prairie is renowned — has been excellent. Sizable brook trout also live in the reservoir.

“The weather’s been fickle and challenging, but folks who have been able to get out have been fairly successful in seeing fish up to 5 pounds caught — some nice rainbows,” Wise said.

“What we’re seeing this spring is there’s a very good population of larger fish and fish from the 14to 20-inch range.”

Wise explained that the improved population could be the result of two ODFW actions: An increase in the size of some stocked fish to 6 inches, and an increased reliance on eggs from wild Upper Deschutes redband trout to grow fish that are stocked in the lake.

According to Wise, the larger stocked fish are better able to survive the lack of zooplankton, and fish with native genes are better equipped to adapt to local conditions.

Whatever the reason for the comeback at Crane Prairie, I had to find out for myself if the rumors were true.

As Garrison launched his boat at Crane Prairie last Friday on a bright, sunny morning, he pointed out stickleback minnow swimming in the shallow water near shore.

Garrison, who recalled that he started fishing Crane Prairie in the early 1970s, said he stopped

purchase the two-rod license.

The license is good only on lakes, reservoirs and ponds.

The rainbow trout in Crane Prairie tend to concentrate in channels to find cool water. But according to Garrison, early in the season the fish are scattered throughout the reservoir because the water temperature is cold in the entire lake.

“There’s all kinds of good spots,” Garrison said. “You don’t want to be in the trees, because you can’t fight a fish there. You want a clear playing field in front of you.”

We found a spot near some jack pines but with enough open water in front of us. After a while, one of the four bright yellow bobbers dropped and Garrison tried to set the hook — but nothing.

He reeled in and we observed that a savvy trout had eaten half the dragonfly and swam away.

But after a couple of hours, by 12:30 p.m., the action heated up.

All told, we caught and released six rainbows in the 2- to 4-pound range, all 18 to 20 inches long.

(The five-trout daily limit on Crane Prairie includes only one non-fin-clipped (wild) rainbow trout and only one rainbow trout longer than 20 inches.)

One fish came flying out of the water after I set the hook, then dived deep about five times.

I let it fight its fight in between reels of excitement. After netting the fish, Garrison estimated that it was 20 inches and about 4 pounds, with colorful markings and the distinctive pink stripe of a redband.

“There’s something about Crane Prairie, because you can catch a 10-pound rainbow,” Garrison said. “On other lakes, you hook the fish and bring ’em in.

On Crane, you hook the fish and you TRY to bring ’em in.”

I could tell he was glad to be back on Crane Prairie, as many anglers appear to be this spring.

as an international education.

“If Team Jordan summits, it would be tremendous; I can’t deny that,” he said.

“But he will have visited all seven continents, experienced cultures, languages, politics, food and people.”

The team members have not hired Western guides and instead are relying on their adventure racing expedition experience and three altitude-savvy Sherpas to carry gear, scout the route and set up camp and lines, if necessary.

Jordan has not been above 22,841 feet, which he achieved two years ago when he climbed Aconcagua, the highest peak in South America. On Everest, he is taking the technically challenging and less used northeast ridge route. It begins in Tibet rather than the southeast Nepal approach used by Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay when they became the first to reach the summit in 1953. The route saves about $6,000 on a climbing permit and Tibet has no Everest-climbing age limit, while the Nepalese government’s age minimum is 16. The crux of the north side, the so-called Three Steps, beginning at 27,890 feet, is a technically tricky and potentially treacherous rock climb along the steep, exposed northeast ridge. Here, Jordan will use fixed ropes to pull his body up the windy first step, then scale a 10-foot rock slab before climbing the 30-foot Chinese Ladder, a metal ladder set up by a Chinese climbing party in 1975 that is over a 10,000-foot drop.

With crampons clinking rung after rung in the thin air and the summit less than 800 feet away, maintaining focus and control will be critical. And getting down will be trickier.

“I am happy to be doing something big,” Jordan wrote before heading up the mountain. “If I wasn’t sitting here at base camp, I could be sitting in the classroom learning about dangling participles.”

senior shortstop Kelson Brown, the conference player of the year, and sophomore Ryan Larson, the league’s pitcher of the year.

Brosius said that while name recognition probably draws some interested players to Linfield, at the D-III level there are no scholarships.

“I guess there’s probably some credibility in a student’s mind if they’re looking for a coach that has some experience and maybe knows what he’s talking about,” Brosius said. “But I think as you

southwest of Portland in the heart of Oregon’s wine country.

McMinnville is the birthplace of children’s author Beverly Cleary and home to an annual UFO festival — the legacy of a famous series of photographs of a mysterious craft hovering above the town that were published by Life magazine in the 1950s.

In many ways Linfield looks like a small East Coast college plunked down in the West, complete with red-brick colonial dormitories and a bell tower that chimes on the hour.

Brosius lives just a short drive away.

“He loves coaching and he has a passion for it,” athletic director Scott Carnahan said. “He’s great with the kids.”

After his retirement from professional baseball, Brosius served as an assistant at Linfield under then-coach Carnahan.

Brosius took over in 2008.

In three seasons, Brosius is 9635 as coach of the Wildcats. This season’s team, largely the product of his recruiting, is led by

York, when he hit .300 with 19 homers and 98 RBIs. Brosius — called ‘Brosius the Ferocious’ by Yankees play-byplay announcer John Sterling — left the game after the 2001 season with no regrets. He’d collected his three rings, a Gold Glove and an All-Star nod.

It was a family decision, not a baseball decision, he said.

“I never wanted baseball to feel like work, I never wanted to resent it. I felt like if I kept playing it would almost do more harm than good. I was so fortunate the things I got to experience, going to four straight World Series, winning three of them. I got to play in an All-Star game,” he said. “I knew I wasn’t going to the Hall of Fame. There was nothing to chase, so I was done chasing.

The time was right.”

An Oregon native, Brosius returned to McMinnville, where he made his offseason home. He had friends there and his father had even taken a job there.

affecting self control, decision-making, emotions and risk-taking behaviors.

“Jordan’s a physically strong teenager who’s like an unfinished Ferrari — raw power, without brakes, lights or the ability to maintain equal pressure on the gas pedal,” said Dr. Michael Bradley, a psychologist and the author of “When Things Get Crazy With Your Teen: The Why, the How and What to Do Now.” “Most 13year-olds just don’t have the wiring to make cognitive life-and-death decisions and are not truly able to understand what they’re signing on for.”

Continued from D1 The job at Linfield is just part time and pays “probably less than minimum wage,” Brosius jokes. But this is more of a labor of love: He himself bought the field lights and the infield turf at the school’s Roy Hesler Field.

Brosius has a tiny office in the back of the third base dugout.

The walls hold photos from his playing days, one of the Yankees visiting the White House, another of the ticker-tape parade through Manhattan after the 1998 World Series championship.

Brosius was named MVP of that World Series. The Yankees went on to win the title again in 1999 and 2000.

Originally drafted by the Oakland Athletics in the 20th round of the 1987 amateur draft, Brosius made his big league debut in 1991. He was traded after the 1997 season to the Yankees.

“However, judging by Jordan’s very adult height and weight and his suggested level of physical endurance and training, we may expect him to do as fine as any adult during the Everest challenge — but emotional stress is completely a different story.”

A study by the National Institute of Mental Health, using magnetic resonance imaging to create three-dimensional images of the brain and map brain development from childhood to adulthood, found that during adolescence the brain undergoes dynamic development in areas

Continued from D1 “I really have dreamed about standing on top of the world since I was a little kid,” Jordan wrote in an e-mail message before leaving base camp at about 17,000 feet.

“I don’t feel like I am rushing. Everest just happens to come now when I am 13 and I don’t think age matters so much.”

Other teenagers have stood atop Everest and completed the Seven Summits. In January, Johnny Collinson, a 17-year-old from Utah, became the youngest person to do so.

Jordan had hoped to reach the summit as early as Friday, but on Tuesday he was waiting out high winds at an advanced base camp, at about 21,300 feet, pushing back his attempt to Sunday.

Erik Weihenmayer has climbed the Seven Summits and in 2001 became the only blind person to summit Everest. He is among those pondering the wisdom of allowing a 13-year-old to attempt such an arduous and dangerous feat.

“My gut reaction was that 13 seems young to have the emotional maturity to decide to be there himself,” Weihenmayer said. “When I went up the mountain, I had people like one of my heroes, Ed Viesturs, saying I was going to slow my team down and kill them and myself, so I won’t be a dream crusher.”

While some in the scientific and climbing communities worry about the effects of severe altitude on children, there is no conclusive evidence that an adolescent is at greater risk of getting acute mountain sickness, a potentially fatal condition that mountaineers can face at high altitude.

“The most decent statement about extreme altitude climbing for a 13-year-old would be we just don’t know what to ex-

friends, Lundgren, 45, sees a mature mountaineer.

“Jordan is ready — he’s strong, smart, calm and has a great team surrounding him,” she said.

Lundgren said they had rehearsed making it to the top, as well as turning back.

“Two years ago, or even last year, I wouldn’t bring him to Everest, but now I feel good about his skills, strength and mental abilities,” she said.

Jordan was 11 when he climbed Alaska’s Denali (20,320), considered the world’s coldest mountain. Since then, his preparation for Everest has come with compromises.

“When I am training and know my friends are hanging out, I kind of miss it, but I will have plenty of time for that,” said Jordan, who brought along a rabbit’s foot, a good luck Tibetan prayer necklace, a cross from his grandfather and pair of kangaroo testicles from his friend Nigel.

“I know the consequences of mistakes, but I never feel in danger because my team is prepared and I try to remember it’s all for fun,” he said.

Bradley, the psychologist and a former soldier, compares young ultra-achieving athletes like Jordan to students at military schools.

“In many ways Jordan acts like a small adult, saying the right things and seeming to have it all together, but he’s still a 13-year-old boy rushing with testosterone to take on challenges,” he said. “Teenagers have thin veneers that can easily crack from stress and lack the resilience of adults to bounce back from trauma.”

So, why take that risk?

Romero, 41, who is a critical care flight paramedic specializing in altitude physiology and care, sees his son’s ambitions not just as an adventure of a lifetime, but

FISHING REPORT

Anglers report success on Cultus Lake Here is the weekly fishing report for selected areas in and around Central Oregon, provided by fisheries biologists for the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife:

CENTRAL ZONE BIG LAVA LAKE: Anglers are having good success for rainbow trout. The fish are in great condition ranging in size from 11 to 14 inches.

CRANE PRAIRIE RESERVOIR: Fishing at Crane Prairie is very good with anglers catching larger fish up to five and six pounds.

CRESCENT LAKE: Boat launching access to the lake is available at the Crescent Lake Lodge and the USFS boat launch at Crescent Lake Campground. There is currently good opportunity for lake trout, brown trout and kokanee.

Gary Lewis / For The Bulletin

A lone hen turkey walks in the wild. The purple leaves in the foreground are poison oak. Wild turkeys are not native to Oregon, but can now be found in every county.

There’s still time to talk turkey in the spring woods T GARY

his time the blind went up in 17 seconds, as quick as advertised. Positioned at the corner of two trails, there was a good chance the birds would come out of the trees, down the hill toward us along the main trail.

In my backpack were four photo/silhouettes from Montana Decoys: two hens, two gobblers. In front of the blind, I set the two hens. Fifteen yards out, I positioned a Montana Decoy Mr. T and a Punk Jake to strut their stuff.

Day chased the shadows away and beams of sunlight walked up through the boughs. Beside the blind a couple of hardwood stumps were wrapped in vines with green and purple shiny leaves. Poison oak.

I hate poison oak. Last year, the stuff seemed to leap on me. Caught it once in April and three times between October and December.

But it was turkey season, time to get back in the woods. One of my favorite areas to hunt turkey is Douglas County, where there is no escape from the greasy scourge.

“Priority No. 1 is not getting poison oak. Turkeys are our second priority,” I whispered to Russ as we eased into the blind. Russ Scott had the best seat in the house, our Double Bull Matrix 360 blind.

Today, the box call seemed too squawky, but the glass made sweet hen sounds. From the timber behind us, a turkey gobbled three times, but didn’t show. Time passed and still I expected birds on the trail in front of us.

Russ saw them first. “Here we go.”

Heads tucked low, they skulked down the trail, five shiny feathered toms and a buff-colored hen.

When they saw the decoys, they pulled up short, not wanting to run right into a flock with two toms in full strut. Bad form.

Twenty yards out, they gawked and craned their necks then ducked in submission.

Russ eased his shotgun out the window. The last jake in line paused between the trunks of two oaks and peered down the hill at the dekes, shiny black, backlit by morning sun.

My hunting partner wasn’t one to wait around.

There stood a legal turkey, still as a fence post at 20 yards. He dropped it in the trail with a load of No. 5s. The other birds scuttled off into the oaks.

I forgot about priority No. 1 and went out and collected Russ’s priority No. 2, which any hunter

LEWIS

knows is going to be covered with urushiol. They live in the stuff. Their legs, their feathers, their beaks, beards and snoods are soaked in poison oak. I should have let Russ collect it.

Urushiol (ooh-roo-she-all) is the toxic, resinous oil found in the roots, stalks, leaves and the white berries of the poison oak plant. When the colorless oil comes in contact with skin, it binds within 20 minutes and becomes difficult, if not impossible, to get off the skin with soap and water.

The rash, which shows up within about five days, is the body’s natural reaction to the poison.

Back at camp, later in the morning, we would wash the vile viscous off our hands with Tecnu soap. Available at pharmacies and grocery stores, Tecnu and Tecnu Extreme are the best products I have found to get rid of urushiol. Tecnu was developed during the Cold War, designed to wash away the radioactive dust from a nuclear blast.

Since that hasn’t been a real problem since 1945, Tec Labs turned their attention to that other bane of human existence — urushiol.

In the blind again, I traded places with Russ and looked out the window at the poison oak, even as the urushiol from the turkey began to bind to my skin.

“Call me a turkey.” I handed Russ the striker and glass. He called me a turkey then started to scratch out the sounds on the call.

Minutes later, a hen rushed out of the canyon.

She put on the brakes when she saw our faux flock, craned her neck to see if she recognized anybody, then eased closer, picking at seeds and bugs in the decayed leaves and new grass.

Next time, I’ll have him call me a legal turkey.

Oregon’s turkey season runs through May 31.

The daily bag limit is one male or one turkey with a beard. Hunters are allowed two turkeys for the season, except that a third may be taken in some counties. A separate tag is required for each turkey. For a county-by-county look at Oregon’s best turkey hunting, click on www.visualhunting.com/ turkey.aspx.

FLY-TYING CORNER

CROOKED RIVER BELOW BOWMAN DAM: Flows on the Crooked River are gradually decreasing and are currently around 400 cfs. Fishing is good and will improve more as flows level out.

Redband trout are currently spawning in the river and the Crooked River Flyfishers have marked spawning redds.

We ask anglers to avoid disturbing the substrate in these areas.

CULTUS LAKE: Cultus is open and anglers have had success catching lake trout and a few rainbow trout.

DESCHUTES RIVER (Mouth to the Northern Boundary of the Warm Springs Reservation): As the month of May continues, look for the golden stones and salmonflies to start hatching.

These giant stoneflies have already been hatching in good numbers.

EAST LAKE: The ice is off the lake and the Hot Springs boat ramp is open.

FALL RIVER: The fishing above the above the falls is fair; the reach below the falls opens May 22.

METOLIUS RIVER: Please note that through temporary rule the opening date for mainstem Metolius upstream from Allingham Bridge has been changed to coincide with the Saturday, May 22, stream-opener date, not Sunday, May 23, as stated in the 2010 angling synopsis.

NORTH TWIN: Recent angler reports are that anglers are catching rainbow trout in the 10- to 14-inch range and while the fishing is OK it has slowed a little compared to the week before.

North Twin is a great lake to take young kids to as there is a good beach shoreline and it is protected from the wind. Look to catch rainbow trout in the 8-inch to 13-inch size range.

OCHOCO RESERVOIR: Shore fishing has been good between the boat ramp and the dam. Opportunities for 12- to 20-inch rainbow trout should improve with the warmer weather.

ODELL LAKE: The kokanee angling at Odell lake has turned on and anglers

Watch one of those big juicy orange bugs on the water. Caught in the surface film it struggles, moving, moving, moving. The trout are watching, too.

The key is the movement.

Take the hook shank out of a fly pattern and it has a lot more back and forth movement on the water.

The inherent advantages of a fly without a hook shank are the lighter weight and the fact that the fish can’t use the leverage of a long bar to throw the hook. And with a foam body, this fly has the tendency to float a lot longer than most flies. This pattern is Fergus’s first-generation

SUTTLE LAKE: A few kokanee are being caught, though the fish are reported to be quite small. The brown trout angling is reported to be slow.

Snow retreating from most area trails

By David Jasper The Bulletin

“Improving, but limited.”

That’s the word from Deschutes National Forest Trails Specialist Chris Sabo, who credits 24-hour above-freezing temperatures for recent snowmelt, even though most wilderness trails remain blocked by snow.

Case in point: Pole Creek Trailhead in the Sisters Ranger District. While there is now access to the trailhead, “just up the trail, they’re going to hit pretty much solid snow,” Sabo says.

To the south, Peter Skene Ogden National Scenic Trail is snow-free for the first four miles, after which it’s blocked by snow. Likewise Forest Road 21 into Newberry Crater, which is open only as far as Paulina Lake Lodge; trails and recreation sites above the lodge are buried beneath a couple of feet of you-know-what.

In the Crescent Ranger District, vehicles can now get around Crescent Lake’s perimeter, and there’s about one mile of access on Oldenburg Trail, Sabo reports.

“So some improvement” at higher elevations, Sabo reports, “but lower-elevation trails are going to be folks’ best bet for hiking, biking, horse travel.”

Warm weekends and limited access to higher destinations have increased congestion at Deschutes River Trail and Phil’s Trail; Sabo asks that folks remember to behave courteously when out and about in these potentially crowded locations.

The recent blowdown on the Deschutes River Trail has been dealt with, he adds, and the trail where the uprooting of a tree formed a hole has been repaired.

n the retelling, it might sound like this outing was a failure, but it wasn’t.

It started with the desire to go road biking. I used to be an avid cyclist, cruising the back roads nearly every weekend. It was my relaxation, my little piece of get-away-from-it-all.

Then came a husband and a house with a yard and a dog and a baby.

When I got my bike out last week, it had two flat tires and dust on the chain.

I wiped down the bike, pumped the tires and picked out a ride that circumnavigates Crane Prairie Reservoir, southwest of Bend. At 26 miles, it’s probably not an ideal ride for small children or anyone else who doesn’t want to spend a good amount of time on a bike. But, if you’re in decent shape or willing to take a few breaks, it’s a reasonable distance.

This ride, unlike others in the Cascade Lakes area, is relatively flat, with just 350 feet of elevation change over the course of the ride.

I began my ride near Crane Prairie Resort. Although the reservoir is central to this ride, the resort’s parking lot is the only place where Crane Prairie Reservoir is visible during the ride.

I began riding north on Forest Road 4270, where Mount Bachelor and South Sister rise above new growth of pine trees. Cruising along, with a warm breeze against my face, I thought I had just lucked into the best afternoon ever.

I remembered why I used to do this all the time.

Soon, I turned west, crossing over the Deschutes River, where it’s still a relatively small stream. There were patches of snow on the road here, a reminder that it’s still early in the season.

After a few miles, the road meets up with the Cascade Lakes Highway. Though the shoulder is narrow, this part of the highway is less busy, even in the high season, than the area farther north.

Sheen takes on Blair for the third time

Friends urged to meet out-of-towners halfway Dear Abby: I can empathize with “Deeply Hurt in Arizona” (March 16), who travels back to her hometown to see her large extended family and struggles to make time for her longtime friend “Judith,” who nonetheless feels slighted.

My husband and I grew up in the Northeast but now live out of state. We have flown hundreds of miles with our children to visit our families back there. Once we arrived, it seemed we were expected to continue traveling from town to town to do all the visiting. It became very stressful.

These people made little effort to visit us in our state or even come to our “base” while we were in their area. While “Hurt” visits her elderly parents, Judith appears to be sitting around waiting for her and making little effort. Why doesn’t Judith go to the parents’ home? Or, better yet, have a girls’ weekend in Arizona or somewhere in between?

We have gotten past our irritation with family and friends and do two things: 1. We tell people in advance when we’re coming so they can make plans. Groups — especially friends — can double up, and see us and see each other. 2. We use our time the way we want and not the way we feel we are obligated to.

“Hurt” should urge Judith to try to come to her. The road goes both ways.

— Worked It Out In Alpharetta, Ga. Dear Worked It Out: Thank you for writing. The scenario in “Hurt’s” letter hit a nerve with a number of readers. Read on: Dear Abby: When my kids visit from out of state, I have an open house so the family can come to one place and spend time with them. This gives my kids more time to visit with me and any special friends they may want to see. It also lessens the guilt of not being able to see everyone. This has worked well for us, and now the family expects me to do it evTreating all Foot Conditions

DEAR ABBY

McClatchy-Tribune News Service

LOS ANGELES — When it comes to acting, Michael Sheen says he never lacks confidence. The man who played real people in films like “The Queen,” “Frost/ Nixon” and “The Damned United” says he’s not that way in real life.

“In life I get nervous and anxious and I don’t like taking risks too much, but as an actor, I really do,” he said, sitting in the corner of a beige couch in a sunny hotel room here.

“I enjoy challenge. That’s what I like. That’s why I like to have as varied a career as possible. I try to do as many different kinds of things as possible and play as many different kinds of characters ... Part of why I’ve enjoyed playing these real-life characters so much is because it’s such a challenge. It’s such a risk,” said Sheen, who’s wearing a gray suit, a royal blue dress shirt and no tie.

“So if I didn’t have the confidence — not necessarily knowing I’m going to be able to do it — but I relish the prospect of doing things that may not work.”

His latest risky business is his third stab at former British Prime Minister Tony Blair in HBO’s “The Special Relationship,” premiering May 29.

Sheen, who’s played Liz Lemon’s nemesis British boyfriend in “30 Rock,” as well as a vampire honcho in “New Moon,” says he was willing to portray Blair a third time because it was part of a trilogy of films including “The Deal,” “The Queen” and “The Special Relationship.”

The latter is about Blair’s alliance with former President Bill Clinton and a rift that develops during the Kosovo crisis. “This was interesting because it covers a

ery time the kids come back.

— Diana In Ohio Dear Abby: I agree that Judith is selfish and immature. I have friends all over the U.S., and when they come to visit, I understand that most of their time will be spent with family.

Judith needs to grow up and realize that not everything revolves around her. Instead of complaining about the lack of time “Hurt” has for her, Judith should make the most of the time she does get to spend with her.

— Shellie In Indiana Dear Abby: There may be a crisis in Judith’s life that she is displacing onto “Hurt.” When the emotions around that crisis calm, she will need her old friend. Is there anyone in town who could find out what is going on?

I knew a woman who cut everyone out of her life in a rage after the betrayal of an assault by a loved one. Another person did the same thing after a cancer diagnosis. Once the shock faded and they began to deal with their issues, they confided in their old friends about what was really happening and were able to reconnect.

— Susan In Centerville, Ohio Dear Abby: Our family moved two hours away to make a better life for our kids. With a newborn in tow, we spent the entire first summer traveling home to visit family and friends.

My best friend came to see us once in the first year after our move. Recently she told me that because I moved away, we no longer have anything in common and that “maybe we would cross paths again — someday.”

Michael Sheen plays former British Prime Minister Tony Blair in HBO’s “The Special Relationship” premiering May 29. Sheen also played the character of Blair in “The Queen.” much bigger period of time for the character. It allowed me to explore things I wasn’t able to explore in the other films and take things further. I just found it a very fascinating story how this man changed with time and how he developed and how he became the man making the choices he eventually made that turned a lot of people against him.”

Sheen admits that he’s frightened to try each new character.

“I enjoy the fear of that,” he said.

“I suppose it makes me develop as an actor. It pushes me to go beyond what I’ve done before.”

At 41 he’s done substantial work before. He started in youth theater in his hometown in Wales. It was the place that produced both Anthony Hopkins and Richard Burton, so theater found a welcome harbor there.

Sheen performed with the theater from age 13 to 22, trying on many of the classic roles.

“When you got older — 16 or 17 — you started auditioning for drama schools. So there was a constant supply of people coming out of this youth theater going to the top drama schools in

Britain. I went to RADA (Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts) and when I got there I thought everybody would’ve had the same sort of experience as me and realized that wasn’t the case at all.”

In spite of his accolades in the British theater, things were not so easy when he arrived in the States. “I’d done ‘Amadeus’ on Broadway and my partner (actress) Kate (Beckinsale) at the time was starting to do more film work, and so we made the choice that we would come to Los Angeles and live here for a while and just see how things went. “... So that was kind of like I was starting again career wise here because nobody knew me or my work. So that was quite hard to feel like I was about 30-31 to be in a new country and not really know anyone and to feel like you’re starting again in terms of your career. I suppose that was quite difficult, but I enjoyed it.”

In fact, it was an advantage, says Sheen.

“I can see how that really helped because you can’t take anything for granted and you can’t become complacent in any way, and it was good for me to have that experience.”

sale have a daughter, 11. Though they’ve split, he stays in the U.S. to help parent his daughter. He and his current sweetheart, a dancer, have been together for six years.

When asked if he’d like to be a movie star, Sheen insisted, “I AM a movie star.” His celebrity permits him to indulge in other works that help the world, he thinks.

“I can’t really say there is a downside in being famous. I can go to stores. For me there is no downside. I say to people there is no other job where strangers come up to you and just tell you how fantastic they think you are, which is a lovely thing. I can imagine if that happened constantly that would be quite difficult, but it’s at the perfect level for me. I’m quite happy with it.”

Betsy Q. Cliff / The Bulletin

The road crosses the Deschutes River several times, where it is still a relatively small stream.

Outing Continued from E1 On the weekday I was riding on the highway, I was passed by about half a dozen vehicles within 10 miles.

Going up in the early season, before the crowds come, felt like I was getting a sneak preview of summer. I was getting to see the legendary views and lakes and streams before everyone came up for the warm season.

The farther I went, the more scenic the ride got. I saw osprey overhead. I rode through forests of pines, from towering ponderosas to thinner lodgepole pines and thick firs. Swampy areas and snowcapped hills were all around.

At about mile 13, I went up a large hill, the only major climb on the ride. Then, just at the top of a small downhill, I heard it. Psssssst.

My back tire went flat.

I don’t know what I ran over, though there was some broken glass scattered on the road. I didn’t go back to check. I just knew that, 14 miles into the ride and 12 miles from my car, my ride was over.

Experienced bikers will cry, “Wait! You should have a tire repair kit!” Perhaps I should. There are ways to fix a tire on the road (see accompanying story). I have tried to learn to change my tire without success. I have watched pros do it, and I’ve and taken classes. My tires, as I learned during one class, are abnormally tight on the rims. I still cannot change my tire.

So, here I was, stuck on a road in the woods. I called my husband.

He said he would come pick me up, but it would likely be at least an hour before he got to me. I began to walk.

This is the part where the outing could sound like a failure. To be sure, I was disappointed. I had been looking forward to completing the ride, my first in years. And, I was facing the prospect of walking a bike 12 miles. Ugh. I had walked a few minutes when a group of fishermen stopped and picked me up. The men — John, Lloyd and … I’m sorry I can’t

Trails Continued from E1 The access road to Tumalo Falls opened last week, making for another possible trail destination. According to reports Sabo has received, the threat level for mosquito attacks there remains well below red.

Those whose recreational pursuits still include snow can still head to Dutchman Flat, where the snow is 5 to 7 feet deep.

Don’t be alarmed if you notice

Preventing and fixing flats There’s no need for the bad luck of getting a flat to put a stop to your outing, as it did mine.

Hutch’s Bicycles in Bend and Redmond, and other bike stores in the area, will teach you how to change the inner lining of a bike tire, called a tube. Then, if you carry some basic equipment and a spare tube, you can change the tire yourself on the side of the road.

There are a couple of other options, said Joseph Coleman, a mechanic at Hutch’s. Cyclists can use sealants, which go inside the tube and seal the hole in the tire if it punctures.

Alternatively, there are tire liners, which prevent some but not all punctures.

Coleman said glass rarely breaks through the liners, though some thorns or wires can.

remember the third man’s name — had come down from a mediocre day of angling at Lava Lake. They were kind enough to stop, throw my bike in the back of their pickup and take me back to my car.

The last 12 miles of the ride, as far as I could tell from the truck, are pretty. The road rolls through dense forests and crosses the Deschutes again. Then, a turn north puts you on the road back toward the resort.

I enjoyed meeting new people and talking to my new fishermen friends. They told me about their adventures in the woods, the time one of them saw a cougar as he was out hunting. It was a nice end to the outing, but next time I go, I’m hoping to make it the entire way on my bike.

smoke coming from the Deschutes National Forest over the next couple of weeks.

The Forest Service is “doing a lot of burning for slash disposal, removing fuel buildup and reducing the chance of catastrophic fires,” Sabo says.

“Folks are going to probably see burning here and there, smoke plumes, maybe some low-lying smoke.”

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Thursday, May 20, 2010: This year, you will push to create more of what you desire.

Unexpected events often will color different aspects of your life. You can choose to flow and not fight the status quo. Be careful pushing beyond your physical limits, as invigorated as you might be with an idea or project. If you are single, communication is your strong suit. Make sure you hook up with someone who appreciates this ability. If you are attached, the two of you discuss many different issues and often have opposing ideas. Let that add to the color of the bond. VIRGO can be nitpicky.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH Your strong sense of direction drives you through your day. You will have to plow through a cloud of confusion. Others need your insightful questions to help clear their mind as well.

Opt not to work late. Tonight: Do something just for your well-being.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH You feel inordinately pressured by a domestic or personal situation. You know better than many that you cannot spread yourself so thin. The unexpected increase of demanding issues could overwhelm you. Tonight: Get into the weekend spirit.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Keep talks moving and don’t lock on a minor point, or

even a big point. Get the whole picture. Creativity blooms with someone you admire. You’ll gain more and more understanding through a brainstorming session.

Tonight: Happy to get home!

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH You can only juggle your finances so much -- be realistic.

You might not be seeing the whole picture, because you have yet to learn all the facts. News is not only surprising, but also triggers deep thought. Tonight: Run errands on the way home.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Use today to complete any important conversations and agreements. The unexpected bubbles up from out of nowhere as you deal with an associate.

In some way, you delight in the excitement. Keep your eye on the big picture. Tonight: Splurge and treat another person.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHH You might be on the edge of a breakthrough. Others continue to act in the most unanticipated manner, to the point that the only stable factor is instability! Center on yourself and your strengths. Tonight: Take a deep breath. Leave work behind. Go forth.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Aim for more of what you want. Don’t hesitate, or it could be too late. Meetings could change your work schedule, but are necessary. Continue to accept new technology and other ways to shorten the demands of your work.

Tonight: Think “new” and “different.”

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH Take a stand quickly,

understanding what needs to happen. Whether you are the boss or answer to a boss, allow greater creativity to enter. At the same time, make sure that you and others are on the same page. Tonight: Consider starting the weekend early.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Keep reaching out for a solution that can encompass everyone’s needs. Give up either/or thinking. If you work with the concepts that oppose each other, you will find a similarity. Tonight: A force wherever you are.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH Deal with others directly and, if possible, on a one-on-one level.

People respond to your efforts, but expect some surprises along the way. Negotiate an agreement; time is an ally. Hold off if you’re not content with what you are hearing. Tonight: Working late.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH Others will be increasingly verbal. You could be surprised by the costs that you need to incur in order to make another person happy. Allow yourself to say “no.” A conversation late in the day helps clear the air. Tonight: Togetherness is the theme.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHH You might be cranky or pushed to your limit. Know when to call it a day or to discontinue dealing with a key issue. Speak your mind in order to clear out some of your own tension. Others will adjust.

Tonight: Listen to a suggestion.

T QďœŚA Yellowstone, Tetons after Labor Day

By Rusha Haljuci New York Times News Service

Q:

A friend and I are planning to travel to Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks in early to mid-September. We will fly into either Jackson or Cody, Wyo., and rent a car. Are there guided tours? Can you suggest reasonably priced hotels? We are women “of a certain age,� but physically active. — Barbara Herman, Fairfield, Conn.

Consider visiting the two parks after Labor Day, when prices drop and crowds lessen. One option might be to fly into Jackson Hole Airport, inside Grand Teton National

A:

Park, and spend several days exploring the park. You can stay at Jackson Lake Lodge, with wonderful views of the lake and mountains (rooms from $224), or rent the more affordable cabins at Colter Bay Village (rates from $60). Each can be booked with the park’s concessionaire, the Grand Teton Lodge Company (www.gtlc.com), which offers additional places to stay and eat, and bus tours of the park.

The National Park Service website (www.nps.gov/grte) is another excellent resource.

The park offers an array of ranger-guided programs.

The Teton Science Schools’ Wildlife Expeditions program (www.tetonscience.org) organizes guided four-hour, eight-hour

Eagle and multiday tours focusing on park wildlife.

Next, take the John D. Rockefeller Jr. Memorial Parkway, a scenic eight-mile drive, to Yellowstone Park. Stay at the Old Faithful Inn, a historic landmark (rates start at $107). Similar lodging can be booked with the park’s hotel concessionaire, Xanterra Parks and Resorts (www.travelyellowstone.com), which also offers specialized tours. The park provides free ranger-led programs — see w w w. nps.gov/yell /planyour visit/rangerprog.htm — including half-day hikes to Old Faithful from the Old Faithful Visitor Center, and to Canyon Village from the Canyon Visitor Education Center; reserve in advance.

soft drink consumption has declined since its peak in 2004, according to numbers from Soft drink volume Nationwide a trade publication, but consumers still downed about 9.4 billion cases of soda pop in 2009.

n the war on obesity, soda pop has become a major battleground.

One side has been hard at work curtailing consumption.

Soda has been banished from elementary schools, lambasted by dietitians and blamed in scientific literature for a host of medical problems.

On the other side, beverage companies have spent millions lobbying politicians and billions advertising their products to consumers. Coca-Cola’s current ad campaign urges consumers to “Pop open good times.”

It’s unclear which side is winning. Consumption of soda is down from its peak in 2004, but still, Americans on average swallow about 34 gallons each of non-diet soda per year. Total consumption of soda last year was more than 9 billion cases.

The fight has become particularly heated recently with stepped-up efforts to impose a tax on soda and other nondiet beverages, such as sports drinks, specialty waters and some juices. A large tax, 1 cent per ounce, is a typical proposal.

The fundamental issue is how strongly obesity and soda are linked. That is, is soda making

us fat?

If it is, then perhaps a new “sin tax” might work to thin our waistlines.

If soda is not a significant cause of obesity, then why pick on it?

A role in obesity Everyone agrees that soda pop is not the only cause of obesity. Genetics, physical activity and the totality of a person’s diet are all important.

“It’s not just soda,” said Luann Lehnertz, a registered dietitian at St. Charles Redmond. “It’s overconsumption and underactivity” that causes obesity.

Even the most outspoken proponents of the link between soda and obesity concede there are other causes.

“Industry and I agree on this, (soft drinks) aren’t the only things contributing to obesity,” said Kelly Brownell, director of the Rudd Center for Food Policy and Obesity at Yale University, who has been a strong advocate for taxing soda.

End-of-life orders available in registry Oregon program gives medical personnel access to patient wishes

By Markian Hawryluk The Bulletin

A new statewide registry documenting Oregonians’ wishes for health care at the end of life is exceeding all expectations for the number of forms filed, M E D I and helping emergency medical personnel know quickly when to take every effort to prolong life and when to allow patients to die on their own terms.

The registry, operated under a contract between the state and Department of Emer-

gency Medicine at Oregon Health & Science University in Portland, collects physician orders for life-sustaining treatment, or POLST. The forms are filled out by physicians, nurse practitioners or physician asC I N E sistants with specific orders on whether a patient wants to be resuscitated and any limits on the medical interventions that can be used.

Patients with terminal illness sometimes prefer not to be resuscitated from a heart attack or if they stop breathing just to prolong

Compassionate Care For The Most Difficult Steps In Life’s Journey.

life for a few days or weeks. Others might not wish to end up on life support or have other extreme measures taken to keep them alive.

POLST forms are printed on bright pink paper — often described as shocking pink — and are intended to be hung on the patient’s refrigerator or, in case of senior-living or long-term-care facilities, on the patient’s door. That provides immediate guidance to emergency personnel who might be called to the scene.

PROPER TECHNIQUE

Obliques

By Krista Jahnke Detroit Free Press

Morri Stewart, a trainer at the Athletic Club of Bend and Energize Fitness, demonstrates the correct way to perform some of the classic strengthening exercises.

Doing these with the proper form helps prevent injury and get the maximum benefit. This exercise can be done individually or you can try all nine, which are running every other week in The Bulletin through June 3.

The obliques are the muscles on the sides of the abdomen that stabilize the trunk. Strengthen and tone with this exercise.

How to do it: Lie on the ground with knees bent, feet flat on the floor. Twist knees to one side, without letting them hit the floor. Place hands behind your head and tilt your chin slightly as if trying to keep a tennis ball held under it (1). Pull belly button in as if zipping up tight pants.

Lift up, leading with the chest rather than the chin (2).

Stewart has her clients think of the ribs pinching together to the hips. Do one set of 20 to 25, then switch sides.

Scientists: Lupus can provide resistance to malaria

By Rosie Mestel Los Angeles Times

A group of scientists think they’ve figured out why the autoimmune disease lupus afflicts people of Asian and African descent at higher rates than Caucasians.

Their theory: A form of a gene that raises risk of lupus has a plus side — rendering the carrier more resistant to malaria.

That means the gene would

be useful, and selected for, in areas of the world where malaria is rife. In those places, the downside of increased lupus risk would be far outweighed by the added protection against malaria.

And — like a fossil — the gene variant would persist in the DNA of people whose ancestors came from malarial regions, even when those people don’t live with the threat of malaria.

WE CARE CALENDAR

The study, conducted by a team of British researchers, was published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. It found higher rates of the gene variant in Hong Kong patients with lupus compared with matched controls — and it found lower rates of the gene variant in children in Kenya who had gotten malaria compared with the general population there.

DETROIT — Nikki Saad came to yoga to learn to breathe again.

She’s stayed because it did that and more — it helped her combat chronic stress.

“It’s so peaceful and relaxing,” said Saad, a 29-year-old cancer survivor who attends yoga classes almost every day at the Yoga Shelter in Grosse Pointe. “I especially like going when it’s darker outside. The instructors walk around and help you, and the things they say are inspirational. The music they play is soothing. One time, I just had tears coming down my face. I was so relaxed, I felt I could let go.”

She’s not the only one letting go of stress through yoga.

As the nation suffers through a recession that has touched nearly everyone — whether through unemployment, foreclosures or worry over money — area yoga studios are seeing more people looking for an antidote to rising stress.

“People travel less, they eat out less, but they spend a little bit of money getting healthy,” said Donna Orbovich, who opened the Yoga Shelter in Grosse Pointe, Mich., in 2008. “They find they don’t need the external stuff they’re spending money on, but they say ‘I have to be here, taking care of myself.’

It’s been profound for people, to see that they are stressed, but they have the tools to deal with it.”

Orbovich said, on average, 90 students attended classes each day a year ago. Now, despite the continued economic troubles, that’s up to 100. She tops out with about 150 in classes each Monday.

Emily Tennyson, 53, of Grosse Pointe Farms, Mich., has gone to the Yoga Shelter for the past year. She has noticed the uptick herself.

“On a Sunday morning, it’s like a parking lot on Black Friday,” said Tennyson, who describes her own stress as “typical.” The mother of three works as a freelance writer, and finding assignments has grown more difficult as media outlets have slashed freelance budgets. Her husband works in the auto industry.

“It’s very therapeutic,” said Tennyson, who attends

class every day. “It’s quiet. It’s thoughtful. You just feel better.

I don’t understand enough about yoga to know how it works. I just know it does.”

In 2008, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics predicted that by 2018, the fitness instructor industry, which includes yoga teachers, should grow 29.4 percent — a number that’s higher than the average for most other industries. It’s comparable to the nursing care industry, which was projected to grow 27 percent as the baby boomer generation ages.

Yoga has become a nonintimidating option for the masses.

Saad started yoga as a form of lung therapy. The St. Clair Shores resident was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia in 2005 and has had two bone marrow transplants. She has been in remission for three years, but had to quit her job with AIG, move in with her father and suffer through the side effects of

chemotherapy and steroids.

Her stress is constant and, because of complications from her transplant, she is short of breath.

The steroids have made her face swell; her self-image has been damaged. Saad said the hardest part is realizing she’ll never go back to her old self.

But yoga helps.

“If I could, I’d go to yoga twice a day,” Saad said. “I look forward to it and plan my day around it. I always feel better after going.”

Financial counselor Beth Ehlen, right, talks with patient Mary James at Froedtert Hospital in Milwaukee about her financial options for medical expenses.

D i s c ount s in the co ve rage gap under Medicare Part D YEAR

Offering advice Counselors tend to hospital patients’ financial worries

By Mark Johnson Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

MILWAUKEE — Despite her immersion in a world of sick patients without jobs or health insurance, Beth Ehlen projects unfailing cheer.

“Hi. I’m Beth,” she says, entering a room at Froedtert Hospital.

“I’m a financial counselor here at the hospital.”

The patient inside, a woman in her 30s, lies in bed, not resting.

She shifts around trying to get comfortable. Her face tightens.

Her eyes pinch shut.

“Would you rather I come back at a different time?”

The patient is simply not up to talking, and Ehlen resumes her rounds. Although they haven’t spoken, the financial counselor knows this about the patient: She is uninsured, an all-too-common predicament in an era when millions of Americans are out of work and health care reform has only just passed. Ehlen’s is one perspective on American health care, pre-reform.

A year ago, she and the other Froedtert counselors were making 900 to 1,100 visits to uninsured patients each month; now they make about 1,200 to 1,400 visits.

“We have more patients who have lost their jobs,” says Jennifer Underly, the hospital’s manager of patient financial services. “We have more patients who don’t qualify for government programs.”

When these patients arrive at the hospital, Ehlen says, “they are scared and they probably are seeing dollar signs.”

In the room she has just left, this is indeed the case. When Ehlen returns an hour later she learns that the patient, Gina Johnson, is a 37year-old nurse and single mother with two children who moved back to Milwaukee a week earlier from Minnesota. She moved because her family lives here and her nurse’s salary wasn’t enough to afford a three-bedroom apartment in St. Paul and day care for her 5-year-old daughter, Jaidee.

Johnson is looking for work in Milwaukee, but the throbbing and spasms in her abdomen have made it impossible to focus on anything else. The pain radiates to her back. It hurts so much that she had been reduced to lying on her sofa crying, trying to hide the tears from her children.

As a nurse, Johnson knew she should have gone to the hospital weeks ago. She was afraid.

“This was my first time without insurance,” she would say weeks later. “I was thinking, ‘How am I going to take care of this?’”

It’s a question we’ve wrestled with as a nation. And while health care reform may offer more direction, it is not likely to remove the

need for financial counselors like Ehlen, at least in the near future.

“I suspect over a long period of time the number of financial counselors will decrease. In the near future they will increase because we will have all of this paperwork,” says Thomas Getzen, professor of risk, insurance and healthcare management at Temple University’s Fox School of Business.

Getzen stresses that once health reform kicks in, it won’t bring about universal coverage.

The Congressional Budget Office estimated that the reform legislation will lift about 32 million people from the ranks of the uninsured, “leaving about 23 million nonelderly residents uninsured, about one-third of whom would be unauthorized immigrants.”

Among legal residents, the percentage of insured would rise to about 94 percent, from around 83 percent now.

“You could have universal insurance, but the most difficult-tocover patients will still be difficult to cover,” Getzen says, listing the homeless and drug-addicted as two such groups. Come winter, for example, hospitals receive homeless men and women suffering from frostbite and other ailments, patients who arrive with little if any identification.

Prior to the reform vote, much discussion centered on the cost of hospital care for the uninsured.

Hospitals often cite the amount of uncompensated care — the sum of a hospital’s bad debt and its charity care — though critics suggest these numbers can be easily inflated.

Froedtert says it provided $30.9 million in charity care or financial assistance in 2009, compared with $7.3 million in 1999. During that period, however, the hospital saw a significant increase in patients, so charity care as a percentage of revenue increased modestly from about 1.5 percent in 1999 to 2.1 percent in 2009.

Such figures come as no surprise to the financial counselors on the front lines.

Although fear and worry are common among patients forced to make a hospital visit without insurance, Ehlen does not find her work depressing. She is heartened by the human relationships she sees, the husbands and wives who are there for each other in a time of need, the adults who become parents to their own elderly parents.

Two months after Ehlen opened the door to Gina Johnson’s hospital room, Johnson is back at her apartment in Milwaukee. She has pain medications that have eased the discomfort in her abdomen.

She has found a nursing job, too.

Johnson also learned of health care clinics that charge on a sliding scale for those who are financially strapped. “(Ehlen) left me in a way feeling this isn’t going to be so bad,” Johnson says. “There are some options out there for me.”

How to be a better caregiver

By Alison Johnson Daily Press (Newport News, Va.)

As the population ages, a growing number of people are caring for an ailing family member or friend at home.

Here are tips from doctors: Take care of yourself. Stress puts caregivers at greater risk for colds, flu, exhaustion and chronic illnesses such as heart disease and diabetes. Eat well, exercise, get enough sleep and go to the doctor regularly.

Don’t help too much. Let the person you are caring for stay as independent as possible. Divide complex tasks into simple steps, allow for some mistakes and let the patient make some decisions.

Give the patient things to do. Studies have shown that nursing home residents asked to care for pets or plants live longer and maintain more independence.

Watch for signs of depression. Extreme sadness or hopelessness that lingers more than two weeks is a sign that you may need professional help.

N Soda Continued from F1 Curtailing soda drinking through taxes, he said, “won’t wipe away the obesity problem.

No one thing would wipe away the obesity problem.”

There is disagreement, however, over the strength of the link to obesity.

The American Beverage Association, the lobbying group for the beverage industry, characterizes the link as weak. Studies showing a link between soda and obesity are “mixed,” with some studies showing no link at all.

That association emphasized the role of exercise, or many people’s lack of it, in obesity.

The most important factor in weight control is “energy balance,” said Maureen Storey, senior vice president for science policy at the ABA. “It’s about balancing all the calories we take in through all foods and all beverages with physical activity,” she said. “It’s not just about one side of the energy equation.”

Soda, she said, isn’t consumed only by those who are overweight. “You can be a healthy person and still enjoy a soft drink.”

Though multiple studies have linked soda with obesity, Storey said there is other published work that has shown no link. One such study, on which Storey was a coauthor before she accepted her position at the ABA, analyzed 12 other studies for a link between soda and obesity. It determined that, in total, there was no relationship between the amount of soda people consumed and their weight. The research was published in a mainstream nutrition journal, but it was supported by the ABA, and the institutions doing the research had previously received money from both the Coca-Cola Co. and PepsiCo Inc. Many other published studies have shown such a link. Most show that people who drink more soda are more likely to have weight problems.

A typical study, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association in 2004, analyzed the diets of more than 50,000 women from 1991 to 1999.

Women who gained the most weight were those who had increased their consumption of soft drinks from one or fewer per week to one or more per day.

These women were also more likely, the study found, to be diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes.

This study, like many others in the body of evidence linking soda and obesity, is based on epidemiological evidence, which is evidence gathered by observing a group of people and looking for patterns in habits.

Epidemiological studies are not considered as definitive as clinical trials, such as the kind often used to determine the effectiveness of a new medication.

In epidemiological studies, differences between the groups that drink a lot of soda versus those that do not, but that have nothing to do with soda consumption, can bias results. For example, people who consume a lot of soda may also be less inclined to exercise than non-soda drinkers.

Epidemiological studies are sometimes good for finding a link between two things, such as obesity and soda consumption, but cannot be used to say one thing causes another.

Despite that weakness, Brownell said the evidence tips toward soda as a cause of obesity. He compares the work around soda pop now to the epidemiological studies linking smoking and lung cancer. “It’s exactly those kind of studies that let us know that smoking kills people,” he said. “All we know about risk factors and health comes from (epidemiological) studies.”

How soda acts in the body Outside the beverage industry, most nutrition experts say soda plays a relatively large role in obesity. “I think everybody would say, ‘Yes (soda) is a factor,’” said Melinda Manore, a professor in the department of nutrition and exercise sciences at Oregon State University, “unless you work for the beverage industry.”

There are several aspects unique to soda that make it a worse culprit than other foods, even not-so-nutritious foods.

First is the quantity. Soda contributes lots of calories and sugar

What about diet drinks?

Calorie sources Eighteen food categories make up about 64 percent of the calories in the American diet, with soda pop, energy drinks and sports drinks making up 5.5 percent of the total amount of calories consumed. That makes soda the fourth highest calorie source in an average diet.

While diet drinks are not as big a concern for obesity, nutrition experts warn that doesn’t make them healthy.

Diet drinks contain no nutrients and, sometimes, could supplant healthier drinks such as milk.

There is some evidence that consumption of diet drinks may be linked to a higher body weight, including studies showing that when rats were fed artificial sweeteners, they ate more calories later. The body of evidence, however, is not as strong as it is for the link with non-diet sodas.

Proposals to tax non-diet beverages typically do not extend to diet drinks because they are not as strongly linked to obesity. Advocates for the taxes say they hope, if a tax is passed, it would push people toward diet drinks over sugared beverages.

to our daily food consumption.

“Soda is the single greatest source of added sugar” in American diets, said Brownell. Because sugar is a major contributor to obesity, he said, “it makes sense to go for the single greatest source of it.”

A 20-ounce bottle of Coke has about 230 calories and 65 grams of sugar. For comparison, a golf ball weighs about 45 grams.

People who drink two bottles of soda a day would be getting about one-fifth of their recommended daily intake of calories (about 2,000 per day) from the beverage.

Another issue with soda is that liquids tend to make people feel less full than solid foods.

When we chew and digest solid foods, we feel as though we have eaten something. If we eat a lot at one time, we tend to eat less later.

In experiments, researchers have given people either candy or the equivalent calories in soda. Those who had candy ate less during the day, at least partly making up for the extra calories in the candy. No such compensation happened in the group given soda.

Soda, the data suggest, doesn’t trigger that same “I’ve eaten food” reaction that solid food does. “Somehow the body doesn’t seem to register those calories,” said Manore.

Soda tax battle If soda is a factor in obesity, then the issue is whether we should control its consumption.

And here’s where it gets very contentious.

The beverage industry, naturally, opposes taxes. “It’s not going to work to solve obesity,” said Storey. “Focusing in on a very narrow segment (of diet) on the hope and prayer that it is going to solve our obesity problem is not realistic.”

But obesity is not the same as consumption and, on that, the ABA was more circumspect.

Storey said that there’s “no data to show” that the tax would curb consumption.

The association, however, seems to be sufficiently worried that a tax would cut consumption that it is waging a campaign against the taxes. After spending less than $1 million

Weekly Arts & Entertainment Every Friday In

per year on lobbying from 2003 to 2008, the American Beverage Association spent more than $18 million in 2009 when talk about soda taxes began to gain traction, according to the Center for Responsive Politics. So

far in 2010, the association has spent more than $5 million.

Others have found that a tax would likely cut consumption.

An analysis by Brownell and other experts at a variety of institutions found that for every 10 percent rise in price, consumption would decrease by 8 percent.

With a 1 cent per ounce tax, they estimated, the average person would reduce his or her calorie consumption from sodas or other sugary drinks by 10 percent, “a reduction that is sufficient for weight loss,” they concluded.

Brownell said that there’s currently no proof that a soda tax would have an impact on obesity.

Right now, he said, there are too many unknowns. It depends on whether people substitute other items for soda and how well they do on other causes of obesity.

“You have to get in and do it” to get proof it works, he said.

But just because obesity is a complex problem, he said, does not mean we shouldn’t try small steps to address it. “You have to start somewhere.”

QUESTION: What are the symptoms of dry eye?

ANSWER: The most common symptoms of dry eye include stinging and burning, watering, itch, and blurred vision. In our clinic, blurred vision seems to be the most significant and common symptom.

Ida Alul, Blurred vision caused by dry eye is typically M.D. intermittent in nature, fluctuating between clear functional vision and streaked or “ghosted” vision. For people who spend a lot of time on a computer, the combination of a reduced blink rate and the closed, forced-air environment of many work places leads to rapid evaporation of the tear film. When the tear film evaporates, it’s analogous to driving in a rain storm with a bad set of windshield wipers. We need a nice, smooth tear film to see clearly.

There are multiple treatment options for dry eye. Consult your eye care physician to see what is best for you.

IDA ALUL, M.D.

QUESTION: I am interested in a nonsurgical fat removal technique for my lower abdomen such as lipodissolve. Do you recommend this procedure?

A NSWER : On April 7, 2010 the U.S. Food and Drug Administration issued warning letters to six U.S. medical spas. They were Adam Angeles, misleading prospective patients by claiming M.D. that lipodissolve (aka mesotherapy, lipotherapy and lipozap) eliminates unwanted fat, has an outstanding safety record and is superior to other fat loss procedures. There is no convincing scientific evidence to support any of these medical uses including injections for cosmetic fat removal, male breast enlargement, benign fatty growths or surgical deformities. No FDA approved drugs for injection for fat elimination exist and the safety and efficacy of these types of drugs cannot be assured. I do not recommend this procedure to any of my patients.

Q UESTION : My mom seems increasingly unsteady on her feet and has actually fallen a few times. Is there anything I can do to help her?

ANSWER: The number one cause of falls in people over the age of 40 is a vestibular— inner ear—problem. This is usually undiagnosed, because people actually get used to being dizzy and ignore the symptoms.

Marge Coalman, EdD

Other causes of falls include weakness in the leg muscles, neuropathy (nerve damage) in the lower extremities, side effects of some medications, malnutrition, dehydration, dementia, poor vision, and risky behaviors (such as alcohol/ drug abuse). Fractured hips often are considered the most serious consequence, but a forward fall that results in a brain concussion is far more dangerous.

PHYSICAL THERAPY / FELDENKRAIS® QUESTION: What is the difference between ®

massage and The Feldenkrais Method ?

ANSWER: The Feldenkrais Method (FM) has a hands-on component and also offers movement classes and take-home lessons with a goal very different than massage. The Feldenkrais practitioner’s aim is to help the patient learn how to make fundamental changes in the whole body’s movement patterns so that she Allison Suran, can learn to move in ways that are more natural P.T., GCFP and effortless. We do this through gentle movement sequences that allow muscles to relax so the patient discovers how to align and move her skeleton in ways that allow muscles and tissues to heal from unhealthy patterns. Because this learning method is so gentle, it can be very effective for chronic pain as it rarely triggers a flare-up.

Generally, massage is known to affect the circulation of blood and lymph to the tissues. It can enhance muscular relaxation, decrease muscle spasms and pain, and increase healing from injury as well as improve muscle flexibility. Although there are many benefits of massage, the Feldenkrais focus is on empowering the patient to learn how to make changes to their movement and postural patterns for optimal healing results.

Allison Suran is a licensed Physical Therapist since 1987 and has been incorporating Feldenkrais into her practice since 1994.

QUESTION: I have suffered with “tennis elbow” for several months. I have heard that “cold laser” treatments may be beneficial. What is cold laser and how does it treat tennis elbow?

ANSWER: Low-level laser therapy, also referred to as cold laser therapy, is a painless, non-invasive, drug-free treatment which is used to treat a variety of pain syndromes, injuries, wounds, neurological conditions and pathologies.

Cold laser therapy can be used any time a patient needs a non-invasive procedure for the control of pain, when conventional therapies have been ineffective, or when the acceleration of healing from injuries is desired.

Cold laser is a non-thermal laser capable of penetrating deep into tissue in Brad Pfeiffer, the near infrared wavelength. Once delivered, the light energy promotes the DC process of photobiostimulation. The resulting photochemical reaction produces an increase in the cellular metabolism rate that expedites cell repair and the stimulation of the immune, lymphatic and vascular systems. The net result, observed in clinical trials to date, is the reduction of pain, decreased inflammation and an overall reduction in healing time.

Laser therapy has been successfully used around the world for over 25 years, with no reported significant side effects. We use a laser that has been cleared by the FDA for the treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome and other musculoskeletal pain syndromes. It has successfully treated chronic and acute pain, and a variety of sports injuries including lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow), and more.

For most people, cold laser treatments are quite passive. Some patients have reported a slight tingling or tapping in a nerve or along a nerve pathway. Some have described a slight feeling of warmth. But for the most part, the treatment, which may last from 3-15 minutes, is not noticed at all.

Following (and even during) a laser therapy session, approximately 75-80% of patients being treated can notice an immediate improvement in their condition. This will depend primarily on the type of condition and the length of time the condition has been present.

Generally, the more chronic or severe the condition, the longer it takes to respond. The majority of conditions treated will take anywhere from 4-15 treatments.

If you would like further information on cold laser therapy, please feel free to contact our office.

QUESTION: I have chronic shoulder pain and have been diagnosed with rotator cuff tendinitis with an associated tear. During the Super Bowl there was talk of injecting growth factors to heal torn ligaments. Is this something that might work for tendons and is it available in Central Oregon?

ANSWER: The therapy you are referring to is known as Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP), also known as Autologous Platelet Concentrate. The treatment involves collecting blood from the individual being treated. The blood is then centrifuged to remove the platelet rich plasma, concentrating it 5-6 times the amount normally found in blood. The injection of this concentrate into areas of injury stimulates a healing response which generally heals partially torn ligaments and tendons. It has also been shown to heal tendinosis, a degenerated tendon, which is the result of long-term tendinitis. In professional sports it is also used to speed healing time after injury and ensure a more complete recovery. Although relatively new, PRP has been performed in our clinic for four years under ultrasound guidance. It is also being utilized at Stanford and Mayo Clinics and in the professional sports communities.

PRP is beginning to enter mainstream medicine and is expected to offer an exciting new alternative to chronic pain, surgery, and injury.

COSMETIC DENTISTRY Q U E S T I O N : I get headaches weekly and occasionally I think I get migraines. A friend told me to ask my dentist about my headaches. I can’t figure out what my teeth have to do with my headaches.

ANSWER: Until a few years ago there would have been no reason to consider your dentist as a possible treatment option for your headaches.

Fortunately things have changed. Our profession has learned a lot about how ones bite relates to the airway, posture, and muscle harmony. If any part of that system is not in harmony you can be susceptible to many symptoms including headaches. It is a very complex system and requires a lengthy explanation to understand it well. In a nut shell, I use sophisticated computer instrumentation to determine your ideal bite based on relaxed muscles. I consider your airway as well as your posture and how they relate to your bite. I commonly work with other professionals to improve your entire head and neck relationship including physical therapy, acupuncture, chiropractic, and massage therapy. If these efforts are coordinated the benefits can be extremely effective. I hope this brief explanation helps. I also do a community education series where you can hear with much more detail how your headaches can be improved by improving your bite. I will be offering one on May 27 at my office at 6:00 if you want to learn more. You must RSVP if you plan to attend.

It is important to determine what MSPAS, PA-C ingredient is causing the symptoms. There are many potential chemicals that may be causing your symptoms. I would recommend you try products such as Free and Clear hair care products or Vanicream products.

These products are free of fragrance, masking fragrance, dyes, lanolin, parabens and formaldehyde. If you are still developing rash or itching after eliminating these chemicals, visit a health care professional who specializes in contact dermatitis and allergic contact dermatitis..

ANSWER: EBT or ultrafast coronary computed

tomography scans show plaque within the coronary arteries. Recently, these tests have come down markedly in price ($99.00 at St. Charles Medical Center) and they are quick and easy to complete. They are accurate and well-validated for diagnosing heart disease. In your situation, you really only have one risk factor for heart disease, that being family history. However, we know that genetics plays a large role in predicting individual disease burden and you would benefit, in my opinion, by having the test done. Even if your scan is completely negative, you still need to see your doctor at least yearly for annual exams and blood work as a negative EBT does not mean that you won’t develop heart disease in the future.

You will need yearly fasting blood work to check cholesterol and you will need to keep your blood pressure under tight control to help minimize your chance of heart attack and stroke. Maintaining a diet low in saturated fat and exercise are also very important for your cardiovascular health.

Q UESTION : How often should I have a colonoscopy?

A NSWER : The American cancer society recommends that every person have a screening colonoscopy starting at age 50.

If the results from this screening prove Thuy Hughes, to be normal, then it is recommended to have one every ten years. If, however, a DO polyp is present, the procedure will need to be repeated every 3 – 5 years depending on the type of polyp. Furthermore, if you have genetic predisposition, it is recommended to have the initial screening colonoscopy sooner depending on the age of onset in the family or the type of genetic disease. Your primary care doctor can determine whether or not your family history would warrant early screening.

M POLST

What happened with H1N1 and what lessons did we learn locally?

POLST form submissions

Making it work The registry was created by the Oregon Legislature last year as part of its health reform package, which mandated that health providers filling out the form fax a copy to the registry, unless the patient opts out. Staff then enter the form in the registry, typing in the data twice to ensure its accuracy.

The registry was pilot tested in Clackamas County from May to December, then went statewide in December. Through the end of April, 18,000 forms have been submitted, although nearly 2,000 could not be filed because they were not filled out correctly.

“It’s an enormous number,” Schmidt said. “It has been just an outstanding piece of work by the staff.”

And so far, the registry is working just as intended. In the first five months of statewide operation, the registry fielded 152 calls from emergency personnel checking for a POLST form. In 17 cases, or about 11 percent of calls, the registry had a POLST on file and was able to communicate the wishes of the patient to the medical personnel. In another nine cases, the POLST contents could not be revealed because the callers did not have enough personal information — such as a social security number or a date of birth — to be able to identify the individual conclusively.

“We’ll never give out information on a form unless we’re 100 percent sure of a match,”

Submissions to a new statewide registry of end-of-life orders have exceeded expectations since the passage of a law requiring providers to fax in the forms unless the patient opts out. But more than a third of calls to the registry have not been able to locate an end of life form due to incomplete information.

The introduction of the first rotavirus vaccine in the United States in 2006 led to sharp reductions in hospitalizations for gastroenteritis, an inflammation of the stomach and intestines that is marked by diarrhea and dehydration, researchers reported recently.

Rotavirus is one of the leading causes of gastroenteritis and was thought to be the cause of an estimated 55,000 to 70,000 hospitalizations in the United States each year before the introduction of the vaccine, Rotateq, in 2006 and the introduction of a second vaccine, Rotarix, two years later.

Schmidt said. “If we only have the patient’s name, that’s not enough. We need birth date, social security, their address — not every one of those but enough that we’re sure we have the right form.”

Officials involved in the effort are thrilled at how many forms have already been submitted to the registry.

“I think where we’re at, considering the registry was started six months ago, that is a spectacular number,” said David Kelley, division chief of EMS for Redmond Fire & Rescue who has worked on the task force getting the registry up and running. “We’re farther along than we anticipated with the amount of forms being returned. But that’s not to say we want it to stop. We want it to continue. We want the most amount of forms we can in there, so we can best serve patients’ wishes.”

Registry officials aren’t even sure how many Oregonians have completed POLST forms and how many forms could potentially be in the database. The registry is encouraging individuals who filled out their forms before the Dec. 3 start date to ask their providers to fax a copy to the registry.

Eventually, as each new form is faxed in, the registry hopes to have a nearly universal registry.

Kelley said the next step may be to switch to an electronic form, eliminating the need for faxing.

Federal laws surrounding the encryption of health data make that a more challenging task than it might seem. That’s why

Epidemiologist Aaron Curns of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and his colleagues studied hospitalizations for gastroenteritis in 18 states accounting for almost 50 percent of the U.S. population. They compared rates for children hospitalized from 2000 to 2006 to those in the following two years. The team reported online in the Journal of Infectious Diseases that hospitalization rates for acute gastroenteritis dropped by 16 percent in 2007 and by 45 percent in 2008.

They estimated that about 55,000 hospitalizations were prevented during 2008 by the vaccinations, suggesting that the vaccine was highly effective.

Continued from F1 But when the POLST form is not immediately visible, the emergency responders have little time to hunt for it. Similarly, hospital emergency rooms don’t always know whether a patient has filled out a POLST form. With the new registry, medical personnel can call the registry to check for a POLST form.

“The goal here was to have a backup,” said Dr. Terri Schmidt, the registry’s director. “If the paper is there, great. But when it can’t be found, there is an opportunity to call the number here at OHSU and get the information.”

If a patient is being transported to the hospital, the call center can fax the POLST form to the hospital before the patient arrives, she said.

for now, the registry is still using the old-school faxes.

‘It’s a no-brainer’ While many people have advance directives, such legal documents only describe patients’ wishes and designate a person to make decisions on their behalf.

But that person might not be available in an emergency scenario, leaving medical personnel to err on the side of caution and continue to use all possible means.

Registry officials are now reaching out to medical personnel to ensure they know to fax POLST forms into the registry, and to ensure that first responders call the registry when they don’t see a form.

“They’re a standout color, so it’s a no-brainer if it’s in the room and it’s visible. Having that POLST, a particular colored piece of paper, on the refrigerator on the door, that’s what makes it easy,” said Dr. David Gruzd, an emergency room physician in Prineville who works with Crook County Fire and Rescue. “There are times where if the decision is you’re going to have to act right now, the tendency is, ‘You called 911, we’re going to act right now.’ If there’s time, then we’ll go hunt.”

Gruzd said he believes the registry will be of limited help in rural areas until more people have filled out POSLT forms and the registry is more complete. In urban areas, where there may be multiple responders to an emergency call, or in emergency departments, there may be enough

personnel involved that one can step aside to call the registry.

“The place where it seems like it’s being used more is in the emergency department, rather than the pre-hospital care, at least in our region,” Gruzd said. “In some of the other regions, they have different resources and different abilities, so they’ll able to take more advantage of that in the pre-hospital setting.”

If all goes well, Oregon may once again serve as a model for other states. Oregon pioneered the use of POLST forms in the 1990s, and now seven states have endorsed the forms, and at least 17 others are in the process of implementing the system.

Schmidt believes the state winds up leading the way on things like the POLST registry in part because of the Death with Dignity Act, which legalized physician-assisted suicide.

“Not in that there’s any direct relationship between the two, but in Oregon, early on we began to talk about end-of-life decisions,” she said.

It’s why Oregon has the lowest number of patients who die in the hospital and one of the highest rates of hospice use in the country.

“In Oregon, more people die at home or in long-term care facilities than anywhere in the country.

That’s something that people say is important to them,” Schmidt said. “If you say, ‘Where would you like to die?’ Most people don’t say, ‘In a hospital.’”

CE LE B RITY M EDICINE Valve replacement becoming common but not risk-free Barbara Walters, 80, announced on her television show “The View” that she would have heart valve surgery. According to the American Heart Association, heart valve replacements are becoming common procedures.

Every heart has four valves that open to allow blood to flow in and out of its chambers. Walters Barbara said she had a Walters narrowing of a valve, called stenosis, that keeps the valve from opening fully. The valve may have become hardened from calcium deposits or scarring. As a result, less blood gets through the valve.

Some valves can be repaired but others must be replaced with either a mechanical valve, a pig or cow valve, or a valve from a

human donor. Mechanical valves are long-lasting but require the patient to take blood thinners to prevent clots from forming on or around the valve. A clicking noise can be heard in the chest after they are implanted.

Valve replacement can only be done by stopping the heart. To keep the blood flowing, doctors use a heart-lung machine to maintain blood flow and the delivery of oxygen to the body.

The surgery, although commonplace, is not without risks. It has a death rate of about 2 percent to 5 percent, depending on the type of valve used.

MCCLEAN, an Individual, and MCCLEAN DEVELOPMENT CORP., an Oregon corporation is the Grantor, and WESTERN TITLE is the original Trustee, and HOME FEDERAL BANK, as successor in interest to COMMUNITY FIRST BANK, an Oregon state-chartered commercial bank, is the Beneficiary (the "Trust Deed"). The aforementioned Trust Deed covers property (the "Property") described as: Lots 22, 23, 24, 25, and 26, SIX PEAKS-PHASE 4, Deschutes County, Oregon.

A foreclosure sale is scheduled for 8/26/2010. Unless the lender who is foreclosing on this property is paid, the foreclosure will go through and someone new will own this property. The following information applies to you only if you occupy and rent this property as a residential dwelling under a legitimate rental agreement. The information does not apply to you if you own this property or if you are not a residential tenant. If the foreclosure goes through, the business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale has the right to require you to move out. The buyer must first give you an eviction notice in writing that specifies the date by which you must move out. The buyer may not give you this notice until after the foreclosure sale happens. If you do not leave before the move-out date, the buyer can have the sheriff remove you from the property after a court hearing. You will receive notice of the court hearing. FEDERAL LAW REQUIRES YOU TO BE NOTIFIED IF YOU ARE OCCUPYING AND RENTING THIS PROPERTY AS A RESIDENTIAL DWELLING UNDER A LEGITIMATE RENTAL AGREEMENT, FEDERAL LAW REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU A NOTICE IN WRITING A CERTAIN NUMBER OF DAYS BEFORE THE BUYER CAN REQUIRE YOU TO MOVE OUT. THE FEDERAL LAW THAT REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU THIS NOTICE IS EFFECTIVE UNTIL DECEMBER 31,2012.

Under federal law, the buyer must give you at least 90 days' notice in writing before requiring you to move out. If you are renting this property under a fixed-term lease (for example, a six-month or one- year lease), you may stay until the end of your lease term. If the buyer wants to move in and use this property as the buyer's primary residence, the buyer can give you written notice and require you to move out after 90 days, even if you have a fixed-term lease with more than 90 days left. STATE LAW NOTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS IF THE FEDERAL LAW DOES NOT APPLY, STATE LAW STILL REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU NOTICE IN WRITING BEFORE REQUIRING YOU TO MOVE OUT IF YOU ARE OCCUPYING AND RENTING THE PROPERTY AS A TENANT IN GOOD FAITH. EVEN IF THE FEDERAL LAW REQUIREMENT IS NO LONGER EFFECTIVE AFTER DECEMBER 31,2012, THE REQUIREMENT UNDER STATE LAW STILL APPLIES TO YOUR SITUATION. Under state law, if you have a fixed-term lease (for example, a six-month or one-year lease), the buyer must give you at least 60 days' notice in writing before requiring you to move out. If the buyer wants to move in and use this property as the buyer's primary residence, the buyer can give you written notice and require you to move out after 30 days, even if you have a fixed-term lease with more than 30 days left. If you are renting under a month-to-month or week-to-week rental agreement, the buyer must give you at least 30 days' notice in writing before requiring you to move out. IMPORTANT: For the buyer to be required to give you a notice under state law, you must prove to the business or individual who is handling the foreclosure sale that you are occupying and renting this property as a residential dwelling under a legitimate rental agreement.

The name and address of the business or individual who is handling the foreclosure sale is shown on this notice under the heading "TRUSTEE". You must mail or deliver your proof not later than 7/27/2010 (30 days before the date first set for the foreclosure sale). Your proof must be in writing and should be a copy of your rental agreement or lease. If you do not have a written rental agreement or lease, you can provide other proof, such as receipts for rent paid. ABOUT YOUR SECURITY DEPOSIT Under state law, you may apply your security deposit and any rent you paid in advance against the current rent you owe your landlord. To do this, you must notify your landlord in writing that you want to subtract the amount of your security deposit or prepaid rent from your rent payment. You may do this only for the rent you owe your current landlord. If you do this, you must do so before the foreclosure sale. The business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale is not responsible to you for any deposit or prepaid rent you paid to your landlord. ABOUT YOUR TENACY AFTER THE FORECLOSURE SALE The business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale may be willing to allow you to stay as a tenant instead of requiring you to move out. You should contact the buyer to discuss that possibility if you would like to stay. Under state law, if the buyer accepts rent from you, signs a new residential rental agreement with you or does not notify you in writing within 30 days after the date of the foreclosure sale that you must move out, the buyer becomes your new landlord and must maintain the property. Otherwise, the buyer is not your landlord and is not responsible for maintaining the property on your behalf and you must move out by the date the buyer specifies in a notice to you.YOU SHOULD CONTINUE TO PAY RENT TO YOUR LANDLORD UNTIL THE PROPERTY IS SOLD TO ANOTHER BUSINESS OR INDIVIDUAL OR UNTIL A COURT OR A LENDER TELLS YOU OTHERWISE. IF YOU DO NOT PAY RENT, YOU CAN BE EVICTED. AS EXPLAINED ABOVE, YOU MAY BE ABLE TO APPLY A DEPOSIT OR RENT YOU PREPAID AGAINST YOUR CURRENT RENT OBLIGATION. BE SURE TO KEEP PROOF OF ANY PAYMENTS YOU MAKE AND OF ANY NOTICE YOU GIVE OR RECEIVE CONCERNING THE APPLICATION OF YOUR DEPOSIT OR PREPAID RENT. IT IS UNLAWFUL FOR ANY PERSON TO TRY TO FORCE YOU TO LEAVE YOUR HOME WITHOUT FIRST GOING TO COURT TO EVICT YOU. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR RIGHTS, YOU MAY WISH TO CONSULT A LAWYER.
