An unlikely tutor gives advice on Afghanistan

By Elisabeth Bumiller New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — In the frantic last hours of Gen. Stanley McChrystal’s command in Afghanistan, when the world wondered what was racing through the general’s mind, he reached out to an unlikely corner of his life: the author of “Three Cups of Tea” and “Stones into Schools,” Greg Mortenson.

“Will move through this and if I’m not involved in the years ahead, will take tremendous comfort in knowing people like you are helping Afghans build a future,” McChrystal wrote to Mortenson in an e-mail as he traveled from Kabul to Washington. The note landed in Mortenson’s inbox shortly after 1 a.m. June 23. Nine hours later, the general walked into the Oval Office to be fired by President Barack Obama.

The message was in response to a note of support from Mortenson. It reflected his broad and deepening relationship with the U.S. military, whose leaders have increasingly turned to Mortenson — once a shaggy mountaineer — to help translate the theory of counterinsurgency into tribal realities on the ground.

Deanna Marcum, of Redmond, holds her 2-year-old son Ashton at a checkup with Dr. John Chunn at the Central Oregon Pediatric Associates clinic in Bend on Tuesday. The state’s Healthy Kids program is making more uninsured children eligible for coverage under the Oregon Health Plan, and while COPA’s administrator, Wade Miller, wouldn’t say how many of the practice’s patients are on OHP, he indicated that the number was growing — which is significant, since pediatricians say they take a loss on every OHP patient they see. “Most practices, we’re finding, are shutting their OHP eligibility down,” Miller said. “They get to a certain percentage and say, ‘I can’t take any more losses, so I won’t see more than X percent.’”

Genetic test mix-ups reignite regulation debate

By Rob Stein The Washington Post

One woman panicked when the genetic test she ordered over the Internet concluded that her son was carrying a life-threat-

ening disorder and, even more disturbingly, that he was not — genetically — her son. Another, who always thought she was white, was flabbergasted to find her genes were mostly of African

origin. A third woman’s result was still more stunning: She was a man, it said.

“I thought, ‘Oh my god. Am I really a man?’” said Denise Weinrich, 48, of St. Peters, Mo. “I

thought: ‘What’s the matter with me? ... How am I going to tell my children?’ DNA doesn’t lie.”

DNA does not lie, but its truth is often elusive.

Redmond school clinic wrestles with contraception controversy

By Patrick Cliff The Bulletin

REDMOND — A school-based health clinic at Redmond High School that opens in early 2011 will be the first in Central Oregon designed primarily for high school students. Because of the older student population, the school district is wrestling with the question of how much, if any, reproductive health care to allow at the clinic.

The Redmond High clinic will be the fifth to open in Deschutes County, joining ones in La Pine, Bend and Sisters — which opens in the fall — and another in Redmond. The school-based health clinics offer health services to any district student for slidingscale fees. No student is denied care because of an inability to pay, but if a student has insurance, the clinic will bill the company.

District staff and Redmond School Board members indicate they understand any decision likely will cause controversy. In an attempt to address parents’ concerns, the district is working to answer the question through an academic approach backed by research and data; making a reactive decision without research, said Martha Hinman, the district’s director of student services, would be irresponsible.

“When we’re talking about total health care, it wouldn’t be right for us to exclude this section without investigating it,” Hinman said.

“We wouldn’t be doing our job working for the community and public if we didn’t research this.”

As Facebook users die, their ghosts seek to reconnect

By Jenna Wortham New York Times News Service

Courtney Purvin got a shock when she visited Facebook last month. The site was suggesting she get back in touch with an old family friend who played piano at her wedding four years ago.

The friend had died in April.

“It kind of freaked me out a bit,” she said. “It was like he was coming back from the dead.”

Facebook, the world’s biggest social network, knows a lot about its 500 million members. Its software offers helpful nudges about things like birthdays and friends you have not contacted in awhile.

But the company has had trouble automating the task of figuring out when one of its users has died.

That can lead to some disturbing or just plain weird moments for Facebook friends.

U.S.: Taliban leader orders targeting of women

By Dion Nissenbaum and Saeed Shah McClatchy-Tribune News Service

ARGHANDAB, Afghanistan — U.S. intelligence officials say they have intercepted new orders from the Taliban’s spiritual leader that call on insurgents to target women and Afghan civilians helping American-led forces.

One year after issuing a detailed code of conduct that called on Taliban fighters to protect Afghan civilians, NATO officials say, Mullah Muhammad Omar has issued new directives to his commanders that appear to represent a tougher stance.

Release of the directives comes as Afghan and U.S.led forces are preparing for a looming new military confrontation with Mullah Omar insurgents in the Taliban’s spiritual heartland of Kandahar province. A Taliban spokesman dismissed the report as American propaganda.

Last year, Mullah Omar released a detailed rulebook that called on Taliban fighters to minimize civilian casualties and choose suicide attacks carefully to avoid needless deaths. At the time, the code of conduct was seen as an attempt by the Taliban leadership to win over Afghans by actively working to protect civilians.

Over the past year, the U.S.-led military coalition in Afghanistan also has issued new military rules meant to contain civilian deaths.

Oil’s plugged, but how long?

The Associated Press NEW ORLEANS — The Gulf Coast found itself in an odd moment of limbo Saturday: The oil has been stopped, but no one knows if it’s corked for good.

The clock expired on BP’s 48hour observation period, and the government added another day of critical monitoring. Scientists and engineers were optimistic the well showed no obvious signs of leaks, but were still struggling to understand puzzling pressure readings emerging from the bottom of the sea.

It’s possible the past three days will be only a brief reprieve from the flow of oil bleeding into the

U.S. sponsors trial for 4 detainees KABUL, Afghanistan — The chief judge asked God’s forgiveness if he had reached the wrong decision, and then he sentenced four members of an Afghan family charged with making bombs: two brothers to 10 years in prison and two other family members to time already served.

The courtroom, deep inside the American-run detention center in Parwan, erupted. The prosecutors complained that the sentences were too light, the defense lawyers, too heavy. And the guards tried to quiet everyone. In the next room, the American military lawyers and officers who were watching the proceedings on a closedcircuit television gave a sigh of relief: It had gone as well as could be expected for the first of its kind.

The U.S. military is trying to transfer authority for the prosecution of Afghan detainees to Afghans, but Americans still play a substantial role.

The recent trial also reflected the U.S. military’s evolving view of detention policy. Although officials believe the United States can legally continue to detain Afghans under the law of war, they have come to see long-term detention as creating problems, including increased resentment from the local population.

federal waters are still off-limits to commercial fishermen.

A Coast Guard crew that flew over the wellhead Saturday said far less oil was visible than a day earlier. Only a colorful sheen and a few long streams of rust-colored, weathered oil were apparent in an area that was covered by huge patches of black crude weeks earlier. Somewhere between 94 million and 184 million gallons spilled into the Gulf, according to government estimates.

KABUL, Afghanistan — Five NATO troops died in roadside bombs in Afghanistan, the alliance said Saturday, as international forces announced that they had foiled a terrorist attack on an upcoming conference in Kabul to be attended by leaders from more than 60 nations.

Security is being tightened across the capital for Tuesday’s conference, which is attracting the heads of NATO, the United Nations and top diplomats, including Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

In coastal Alabama, lounge chairs for rent outside of hotels were full and swimmers bobbed in emerald green water virtually oil-free, save for a few small tar balls. Calls started flooding into the reservations switchboard at Kaiser Realty Inc. in Gulf Shores, Ala., almost as soon as BP confirmed Thursday that oil had stopped flowing, said Marketing Director Emily Gonzales. “Are they what we want them to be?

No, but it is far better than it was.”

People also were fishing again, off piers and in boats, after most of the recreational waters in Louisiana were reopened late last week. More than a third of

Roadside bombs kill 5 NATO troops

Gulf. Retired Coast Guard Adm. Thad Allen, the government’s point man on the crisis, decided Saturday that after the testing was complete, the cap will be hooked up through pipes to ships on the surface that will collect the oil.

That likely means releasing crude back into the water temporarily to relieve pressure. It would not be gushing at the rate it had been before BP’s latest fix.

It may take years for the Gulf to recover. But if the coast was on edge about the impending decision, it wasn’t apparent. There were signs that people were trying to get life — or at least a small part of it — back to normal.

On the rocky beaches of Alaska, scientists plunged shovels and picks into the ground and dug 6,775 holes, repeatedly striking oil — still pungent and dangerous a dozen years after the Exxon Valdez infamously spilled its cargo.

More than an ocean away, on the Breton coast of France, scientists surveying the damage after another huge oil spill found that disturbances in the food chain persisted for more than a decade.

And on the Gulf Coast in Mexico, an American researcher peering into a mangrove swamp spotted lingering damage 30 years after that shore was struck by an enormous spill.

Every oil spill is different, but the thread that unites these disparate scenes is a growing scien-

tific awareness of the persistent damage that spills can do — and of just how long oil can linger in the environment, hidden in outof-the-way spots.

At the same time, scientists who have worked to survey and counteract the damage from spills say the picture in the Gulf is far from hopeless.

“Thoughts that this is going to kill the Gulf of Mexico are just wild overreactions,” said Jeffrey Short, a scientist who led some of the most important research after the Exxon Valdez spill and now works for an environmental advocacy group called Oceana.

“It’s going to go away, the oil is.

It’s not going to last forever.”

But how long will it last?

Only 20 years ago, the conventional wisdom was that oil spills did almost all of their damage in the first weeks, as fresh oil load-

ed with toxic substances hit wildlife and marsh grasses, washed onto beaches and killed fish and turtles in the deep sea.

But disasters like the Exxon Valdez in 1989, the Ixtoc 1 in Mexico in 1979, the Amoco Cadiz in France in 1978 and two Cape Cod spills — all studied over decades with the improved techniques of modern chemistry and biology — have allowed scientists to paint a more complex portrait of what happens after a spill.

It is still clear that the bulk of the damage happens quickly, and that nature then begins to recuperate. After a few years, a casual observer visiting a hardhit location might see nothing amiss. Birds and fish are likely to have rebounded, and the oil will seem to be gone.

But often, as Short and his team found in Alaska, some of it has merely gone underground, hiding in pockets where it can still do low-level damage to wildlife over many years. And the human response to a spill can

WELL MAINTAINED AND PRIVATE HOME

mitigate — or intensify — its long-term effects. Oddly enough, some of the worst damage to occur from spills in recent decades has come from people trying too hard to clean them up.

It is hard for scientists to offer predictions about the present spill, for two reasons.

The ecology of the Gulf of Mexico is specially adapted to break down oil, more so than any other body of water in the world — though how rapidly and completely it can break down an amount this size is essentially unknown.

And because this spill is emerging a mile under the surface and many of the toxic components of the oil are dissolving into deep water and spreading far and wide, scientists simply do not know what the effects in the deep ocean are likely to be.

Still, many aspects of the spill resemble spills past, especially at the shoreline, and that gives researchers some confidence in predicting how events might unfold.

For long-term unemployed, the safety net gets weaker

By Michael Luo New York Times News Service

quickly take up the unemployment insurance extension. But they remain a vote short of being able to block a Republican filibuster, forcing them to wait for Carte Goodwin, the successor to Sen. Robert Byrd, who died last month, to be sworn in. The Senate majority leader, Harry Reid, said the vote on an extension would occur Tuesday.

The measure is now expected to pass, but advocates for unemployment insurance are hardly declaring victory yet. Fears about the country’s skyrocketing deficit, which are at the heart of Republican objections, have gained growing prevalence, even with moderate Democrats. Economic arguments that additional government spending is needed to spur the economy have been swamped.

Some Republican politicians have argued that continuing to extend unemployment benefits offers a disincentive for the jobless to find

work. Supporters of unemployment insurance counter that job openings remain in short supply.

Sadler estimates that she used to spend six hours a day searching for work; now it is at least double that amount of time.

“There’s been times I’ve had to make myself stop looking for jobs because it was driving me nuts,” said Sadler, who said she had contemplated suicide.

On Tuesday, Sadler scored just her third interview since 2008, for a $7.50-an-hour job at a checkcashing business that is an hour’s drive from her home. It would have paid less than she received on unemployment benefits and left her still unable to cover her expenses, but she had little choice. It took all her willpower not to reach across the table to shake her interviewer and beg for a chance. The company said she would know by Thursday, but as of Friday she had not heard back.

“Thousands would be a conservative estimate.”

Women’s Holocaust role exceeds old notions

By Isabel Kershner New York Times News Service

New York Times News Service

A photo of German women raising the Nazi flag is displayed at the Holocaust Museum in Jerusalem. national Institute for Holocaust Research. She has been trying to decipher what motivated these women to commit such crimes.

“They challenge so deeply our notion” of what constitutes normal female behavior, she said.

But the Nazi system, she added, “turned everything on its head.”

Lower said she worked for many years at the Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington and is now teaching and researching at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitat in Munich.

The German women in the eastern territories included nurses, teachers and welfare workers.

Women ran the storehouses of be-

longings taken from Jews. Local Germans were recruited to work as interpreters. Then there were the wives of regional officials, and their secretaries, some from their staffs back home. For women from working-class families or farms in Germany, the occupied zones offered an attractive opportunity to advance themselves, Lower said.

There were up to 5,000 female guards in the concentration camps, making up about 10 percent of the personnel. Grese was hanged at the age of 21 for war crimes committed in Auschwitz and Bergen-Belsen; Koch was convicted of participating in mur-

Obama: GOP blocks jobless, business aid WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama says Senate Republicans are playing politics with bills that would extend benefits to the unemployed and increase lending to small businesses.

Striking a deeply partisan tone in his weekly radio and online address, Obama said the GOP leadership has chosen to “filibuster our recovery and obstruct our progress” by blocking votes on agenda items the president says would breathe life into the economic recovery.

“These steps aren’t just the right thing to do for those hardest hit by the recession,” Obama said. “They’re the right thing to do for all of us.” The address was recorded at the White House before Obama flew to Maine on Friday for a weekend family vacation.

Lawmakers have battled for weeks over extending unemployment benefits to workers who have been out of a job for long stretches of time. The last extension ran out at the end of May, leaving about 2.5 million people without benefits.

In their weekly address, Republicans focused on Obama’s recess appointment of Donald Berwick to the administrator at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. By appointing Berwick while the Senate was in recess, Obama was able to avoid a public hearing and Senate vote for his nominee — a move Republicans have called hypocritical amid Obama’s promises of transparency.

Kansas Sen. Pat Roberts, who delivered the address, said Berwick’s recess appointment is particularly troubling given the large role he’ll play in implementing the massive health care overhaul Obama signed into law earlier this year.

BEST SELECTION IN CENTRAL OREGON!

JERUSALEM — Amid the horrors of the Holocaust, the atrocities perpetrated by a few brutal women have always stood out, like aberrations of nature.

There were notorious camp guards like Ilse Koch and Irma Grese. And lesser known killers like Erna Petri, the wife of an SS officer and a mother who was convicted of shooting to death six Jewish children in Nazi-occupied Poland; or Johanna Altvater Zelle, a German secretary accused of child murder in the VolodymyrVolynskyy ghetto in Nazi-occupied Ukraine.

The Nazi killing machine was undoubtedly a male-dominated affair. But according to new research, the participation of German women in the genocide, as perpetrators, accomplices or passive witnesses, was far greater than previously thought.

The researcher, Wendy Lower, an American historian now living in Munich, has drawn attention to the number of seemingly ordinary German women who willingly went out to the Nazi-occupied eastern territories as part of the war effort, to areas where genocide was openly occurring.

“Thousands would be a conservative estimate,” Lower said in an interview in Jerusalem last week.

While most did not bloody their own hands, the acts of those who did seemed all the more perverse because they operated outside the concentration camp system, on their own initiative.

Lower’s findings shed new light on the Holocaust from a gender perspective, according to experts, and have further underlined the importance of the role of the lower echelons in the Nazi killing apparatus.

“In the dominant literature on perpetrators, you won’t find women mentioned,” said Dan Michman, the chief historian at Yad Vashem, the Holocaust Martyrs’ and Heroes’ Remembrance Authority in Jerusalem.

Lower, 45, presented her work for the first time at this summer’s workshop at Yad Vashem’s Inter-

ders at Buchenwald. Petri was tried in East Germany and served a life sentence.

Altvater Zelle went to Ukraine as a 22-year-old single woman and became the secretary of a district commissar, Wilhelm Westerheide.

Survivors remembered her as the notorious Fraulein Hanna, and accused her, among other things, of smashing a toddler’s head against a ghetto wall and of throwing children to their deaths from the window of a makeshift hospital.

In Westerheide’s region, about 20,000 Jews were wiped out. He and his loyal secretary were tried twice in West Germany, in the late 1970s and early 1980s. They were acquitted both times because of contradictions that arose in the testimonies of witnesses gathered over 20 years, the former chief prosecutor in the case told Lower.

One survivor, Moses Messer, said he saw the woman he knew as Fraulein Hanna smashing the toddler to death against the wall.

He told lawyers in Haifa, Israel, in the early 1960s: “Such sadism from a woman I have never seen. I will never forget this scene.”

WASHINGTON — The Biden for President campaign committee owes the Treasury more than $219,000 because it accepted excessive campaign contributions and understated the value of a trip taken on a private aircraft during the 2008 campaign, the Federal Election Commission says.

Auditors from the agency have found numerous violations of campaign finance rules by the committee that Vice President Joe Biden used in his bid for the Democratic presidential nomination.

Biden’s press secretary, Elizabeth Alexander, said Saturday he would pay the amounts owed. “Some repayment is commonplace after presidential campaign audits, and the repayment ordered here is relatively small,” Alexander said.

Auditors said the campaign could not document a number of statements it made about the handling of campaign contributions. Biden declared his candidacy in January 2007, but he never generated as much excitement or raised as much money as two of his rivals, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. Biden pulled out of the race in January 2008.

Every morning, after Sadler takes her dog out and turns on the coffee maker, she switches on the TV to C-Span. Then she cracks open her laptop to resume a job hunt that has become frantic.

But as she has run low on money, her search has also become increasingly circumscribed. She used to drive to drop off resumes with businesses; now she is mostly limited to scanning online listings.

Terri Sadler watches C-Span at her home in Carlisle, Ky., on Tuesday. Sadler and an estimated 2.1 million more Americans are waiting for an end to a lengthy impasse in the Senate over whether to extend jobless benefits again.

CARLISLE, Ky. — In her wellthumbed, leather-bound Bible, Terri Sadler recently highlighted in bright pink a passage in the Gospel of Matthew.

In it, Jesus urges his followers not to “worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself.”

But Sadler’s tightening throat and halting breath when she tries to read the words aloud make it clear that she is having trouble mustering enough faith to follow them.

Sadler, who lost her job at an automotive parts plant in October 2008, learned last month that her unemployment insurance had been cut off. She is one of an estimated 2.1 million Americans whose benefits have expired and who are waiting for an end to an impasse that has lasted months in the Senate over extending the payments once more to the longterm unemployed.

Times have changed politically, however, and opposition is growing in Washington and abroad to deficit-bloating government spending, even for those who are hurting.

For Sadler, and many like her, each passing day has become an excruciating countdown of debts and deadlines.

“I’m basically applying for everything, trying to get something,” said Sadler, 52, who since early June has not received an unemployment check, which used to be about $388 a week before taxes. “If I don’t, I’m going to lose everything. I’m not going to have a roof over my head. I’m just going to have to walk away with what I have on my back, and my dog.”

She is down to $44 in her purse and a quarter-tank of gas. She says she has exhausted the help of family and friends.

Members of her tiny Baptist church just up the road from her cramped mobile home pooled their money on Sunday to come up with her car payment and insurance. A county ministerial association paid her water bill. A

The Healthy Kids program, signed into law in August 2009, increased the number of children eligible for coverage under the Oregon Health Plan. The initiative, which aims to reduce the number of uninsured children to less than 5 percent statewide, is expected to provide coverage for more than 5,000 additional children in Central Oregon by January 2012.

on OHP, saying only that the number was significant and growing.

An analysis of state immunization data, however, provides a glimpse of the OHP caseloads shouldered by various Central Oregon practices. Doctors who immunize children report to the state’s Vaccines for Children program the number of children they expect to vaccinate each year, including the number of patients on OHP. In its three locations, COPA expects to vaccinate more than 12,000 kids, including 3,600 on OHP, about a third of its caseload.

(See chart on next page.)

Although the vaccination estimates provide only a slice of a clinic’s total practice, the numbers show how big a role COPA plays. The group immunizes as many OHP kids in Deschutes County as all of the other providers combined.

“We have kept our panel of OHP open as with all insurance or no insurance, because we believe we have a commitment to our community to see everyone, regardless of whether they have private insurance or not,” Miller said. “It’s our obligation to support our community, as we have for the last 35 years.”

The Healthy Kids program will offer parents a way to get health coverage for uninsured children for free or at a very low cost, and thousands are expected to sign up.

By May, officials had already enrolled more than 3,000 additional children in Central Oregon, and about 48,000 of the 80,000 target statewide. But the state is keeping a close eye on how many doctors will treat those new enrollees.

The draft of a yet-to-be-released report from the Oregon Department of Human Services calculated the state has some 585 practicing pediatricians serving about 987,000 children, a ratio of 1,688 patients per pediatrician. But authorities stress that ratio changes significantly from one part of the state to the next. Multnomah County, for example, has a pediatrician for every 830 kids, while 17 counties, including Crook and Jefferson, have no more than two pediatricians, if any.

Deschutes County has somewhere between 1,500 and 2,000 children per pediatrician, considered a borderline-adequate Financial concerns supply, although the region is exFew other private practices pected to add a number of pedia- have figured out how to accomtricians later this year. modate a large number of OHP Virtually all of those pediatri- patients. cians accept at least some OHP Drs.

additional grants, they too would lose money on OHP patients.

“We are incentivized through Medicaid, so it is to our advantage.

Just as it is to a private practice to take commercial insurance, it’s to our advantage to take Medicaid,” she said.

Krugh said she understands both the unhappiness some pediatric practices face about carrying more of the OHP burden than others as well as the reason doctors don’t feel they can take too many OHP kids.

“It does makes a lot of sense to me that folks who have figured out how to do this are not feeling good about people who haven’t figured it out,” Krugh said. “But the truth is, if any private practice were to try to become 25, 50, 75 percent (OHP), they couldn’t stay open.”

Bend Memorial Clinic, the second-largest pediatric practice in Central Oregon, has chosen to strictly limit the number of kids on OHP they see.

“We as pediatricians don’t discriminate based on their parents’ economic status,” said Dr. Richard Cuddihy, who heads BMC’s pediatric department. “It’s a challenge, however, because insurance companies and the state flip that around and do discriminate against pediatricians.”

Doctors get less money to provide the same service to OHP’s lowincome families than they do for families that can afford private insurance.

BMC pediatricians have been instrumental in getting Mosaic’s pediatric practice off the ground.

Mosaic contracted with BMC pediatricians for one day a week of pediatric coverage before it had its own pediatrician, and that contract remains in place if Mosaic needs additional help.

“I think about it on a community level, and I would say our community’s capacity is fine, we can handle it,” Cuddihy said.

“And I don’t really look at it necessarily as this office versus that office versus that office, because it might be an interesting read, but it’s not productive. I think that everybody tries to do their best and see as many kids as they can.”

Other pediatricians who do take large numbers of OHP kids declined to comment on their caseloads in part for fear of becoming known as practices for

low-income patients only.

“When you look at a practice that’s private, you certainly could have a trend that tips in one direction or another and have that stigma,” said Dr. Darin Vaughan, a pediatrician with the La Pine Community Health Center. “I think when you have a safety net clinic, like my own employer or other Federally Qualified Health Centers, I think people do sometimes make an assumption that we don’t see insured patients or that we don’t provide that level of care, and that’s certainly not the case.”

Changing demographic In 2008 in Oregon, such health centers saw about 37,000 uninsured kids, many of whom will now qualify for the Healthy Kids plan. Because those kids were already being seen by local providers, that could mitigate some of the concerns over access issues, state officials said.

C OV ER S T ORY “I think we’ll always have a percentage of uninsured, but I do think this could make a very serious dent and make those few who are uninsured less than 5 percent of the kids in Oregon. When you have families that need charitable care or can’t afford the cost of the medicine, you can help a few, but you can’t help a large number, because the burden to that kind of charitable care becomes too large to sustain.”

— Dr. Darin Vaughan, La Pine Community Health Center Continued from previous page If Healthy Kids meets its enrollment targets, the uninsured rate among Oregon children would drop from 13 percent to less than 5 percent. That could provide payment to doctors, even at lower OHP levels, where no payments were available before.

“I think we’ll always have a percentage of uninsured, but I do think this could make a very serious dent and make those few who are uninsured less than 5 percent of the kids in Oregon,” Vaughan said. “When you have families that need charitable care or can’t afford the cost of the medicine, you can help a few, but you can’t help a large number, because the burden to that kind of charitable care becomes too large to sustain.”

Experts also say the typical OHP patient has changed significantly during the past decade.

With so many parents losing their jobs and employer-sponsored insurance, many OHP kids come from formerly affluent or middle-class families.

“It would be sad to think of myself as — or another practice to be — the doctor for kids only lucky enough to have private insurance, because that leaves at least half the kids in the county out of luck,” Vaughan said. “I think it’s really delightful that people of all backgrounds can get good care on an equal basis, and I think we have an ethical responsibility as physicians to do our best to provide that.”

Krugh said some nonmedical providers, including Bluefish Dental and Healing Bridge Physical Therapy, have also stepped up to cover all OHP kids who come their way.

“I have to be honest; none of us really know how they do that.

It’s a money suck,” she said. “It’s really clear that there are some other reasons why they’re doing it, and it has nothing to do with profit. And these are both forprofit entities.”

About the coverage The Healthy Kids program offers coverage for kids under three options, depending on the family’s income. Children in families that earn up to 200 percent of the federal poverty level — about $44,000 for a family of four — will qualify for free coverage under OHP. Children in families with income between roughly $44,000 and $66,000 for a family of four qualify for a low-cost option. That option has a sliding scale for premiums based on income, but tops out at $31 to $38 a month for a single child, with further discounts for additional children.

Families that make too much money to qualify for the subsidized plans can purchase insurance for their children at $200 to $500 a month, with virtually no exclusions.

The low-cost and full-cost options are available through a health insurance exchange, called Healthy Kids Connect, that offers kids the choice of a statewide plan provided by PacificSource or a regional plan in Central Oregon by Bend-based Clear One. “If you qualify for Healthy Kids Connect, it’s pretty much a no-brainer,” Krugh said. “You get a Clear One or PacificSource

card, and it’s like an all-access pass to health care in Central Oregon.”

The insurance coverage comes with no deductible and no copayments for standard wellchild visits. And most providers are expected to take the Healthy Kids Connect population, because those in the low-cost or full-cost options are enrolled in essentially a private insurance program that pays close to commercial rates.

“It’s enabling providers who were unable to serve vulnerable populations to get on that bandwagon,” Krugh said.

Physician supply Overall pediatric capacity in Central Oregon is growing. BMC will expand from two to four pediatricians at its Bend locations this summer and in the fall will bring another full-time pediatrician to its Redmond clinic. COPA is adding two new doctors but losing one, bringing its total to 18 next month. And Mosaic will soon have its third pediatrician.

“If our pediatric schedule was booked three months in advance, we would hire another pediatrician,” Krugh said. “It’s certainly on our mind. We’re watching our numbers. As far as Mosaic Medical is concerned, we’ll meet the need; if we have to have 10 pediatricians across our clinic system, we’ll make that happen.”

The clinic’s primary care physicians, she said, would also be willing to take on more pediatric patients if needed. In fact, many kids in Central Oregon see a family physician for their primary care. A 2005 study estimated that nationwide, 28 percent of pediatric primary care is provided by family physicians.

That could also help absorb the increase in OHP kids this year.

The Office for Oregon Health Policy and Research found that about 94 percent of primary care physicians accept OHP clients.

But almost all of those practices also limit the number of OHP patients they’ll see. According to the 2009 Physician Workforce Study, 18 percent of doctors have completely closed their practices to new OHP patients.

There are also doubts as to how much of the pediatric surge primary care doctors could handle.

There is already a widespread belief that there are too few doctors to handle adult primary care needs, and a recent survey of frontline doctors in Oregon found one in five is planning to retire in the next 10 years. By that time, federal health reform provisions are expected to further reduce the number of uninsured adults, filling more physician waiting rooms.

And if doctors have to choose between adding adults or kids, the financial incentives might tip the balance toward the older

set. Doctors are already wary of taking on too many Medicare patients, and Medicare generally pays better than OHP. “They’re probably going to get paid more to take care of the older people,” said Dr. Arthur Jaffe, an associate professor of pediatrics at Oregon Health & Science University and vice president of the Oregon Pediatric Society.

“So if you’re squeezed and you’re working at capacity, and you’re trying to shoehorn more patients in, why not take the ones you’re going to get paid for?”

Jaffe said that with the dwindling number of new doctors choosing pediatric or primary care, there is concern about access to pediatric care in Oregon.

He said the ratios of 1,500 to 2,000 patients per pediatrician that have traditionally been used as a measure of adequacy may no longer apply. Pediatricians today are less likely to work 60-hour weeks, and kids have more complex health issues, with rising rates of obesity, asthma, diabetes and mental health issues.

“These kids take a lot more time in an office visit, require maybe a different kind of utilization of professional resources,” Jaffe said. “You can’t just run them in and out, take a look in their ears and call it good.”

Improving health Although Jaffe has concerns that the supply of pediatricians and the ongoing funding stream for the program might ultimately undermine access to care, he, like many other physicians in Oregon, believes insurance coverage will indeed improve the health of children, living up to the Healthy Kids moniker.

He cites the example of an uninsured child with no access to primary care who spent a month in the pediatric intensive care unit at Doernbecher Children’s Hospital in Portland last year with a serious case of whooping cough, a vaccine-preventable disease.

THE BULLETIN • Sunday, July 18, 2010 A5 Or the 8-year-old girl who had never seen a doctor and was referred to OHSU because her teacher said she had trouble hearing. It turned out the girl was deaf and needed hearing aids.

“All of us can go on and on without thinking about it, telling story after story,” Jaffe said. “You have kids with developmental issues who don’t get picked up when an early, simple, straightforward intervention can be very successful, and wind up years later coming in with major developmental problems, and they cost a fortune in special education.”

The success of the Healthy Kids program to avoid such situations may ultimately depend on the state’s ability to get pediatricians and other providers to open their doors wider.

“We’re also hoping that more providers will take more OHP kids,” Kaufmann, at the Office of Healthy Kids, said.

“Certainly as we reach our enrollment targets and national reform helps us bring in even more kids, again that’s going to be an issue that we really need to focus on.”

Insurers push plans that limit health choices New York Times News Service As the Obama administration begins to roll out the new national health care law, the country’s biggest insurers are promoting affordable plans with reduced premiums that require participants to use a narrower selection of doctors or hospitals.

The plans, being tested in places like San Diego, New York and Chicago, are likely to appeal especially to small businesses that already provide insurance to their employees but are concerned about the ever-spiraling cost of coverage.

But large employers as well are starting to show some interest, and insurers and consultants expect that, over time, businesses of all sizes will gravitate toward these plans in an effort to cut costs.

The trade-off, they say, is more Americans will be asked to pay higher prices for the privilege of choosing or keeping their own doctors if they are outside those networks. Companies may be able to reduce their premiums by as much as 15 percent, the insurers say, by offering the more limited plans.

Palin, testing waters or not, wades into the midterms

By Jeff Zeleny New York Times News Service

The latest candidate to win the most coveted Republican prize of the election year stood on the steps of a gazebo here and reminded voters of a new reason to support her in the crowded race for Georgia governor.

“Sarah Palin has come on board,” the candidate, Karen Handel, told a group of supporters who gathered Friday on the grounds of the Gwinnett Historic Courthouse.

Handel became at least the 50th candidate to win the Palin seal of approval. Through a breezy 194 words posted on Palin’s Facebook page, a fourway Republican primary came alive, the latest in a number of races across the country that have been influenced by Palin.

One year after leaving public office behind, Palin has waded deeply back into electoral politics, and she plans to increase her visibility on the campaign trail after Labor Day. That she is leaving a major footprint on the 2010 midterm elections is not disputed, but less clear is whether the endorsements are rooted in an effort to amplify her image or to create a political strategy for the future.

When her organization, SarahPAC, filed its quarterly financial report, it prompted fresh speculation about her political

Clinic Continued from A1

How the clinics operate The county runs all of the clinics, but each is designed differently. County employees work with each school district to decide what the clinic will offer and what it will focus on, according to Kate Moore, a program manager at Deschutes County Health Services. The clinics take a public health approach to treatment, focusing not just on a single student’s issues, but on the wider cause of obesity, for instance.

During every planning stage for a new clinic, Moore presents what is essentially a menu of services. None of the existing clinics, with their mixed-age targets, has opted to have reproductive health offered. All of the clinics are, however, required by federal law to give a female student a pregnancy test is she requests one.

But in a clinic without reproductive care, that student, pregnant or not, is left without on-site counseling or help. Clinic staffers do suggest that a student discuss her pregnancy with her family and invite the family to the clinic.

If a student is clearly sexually active, clinic staffers do not counsel about safe sex if no reproductive health care is offered.

School-based clinics across the country offer a range of reproductive care, which includes any number of options, from testing and treatment for sexually transmitted disease to gynecological exams.

In the 2007-08 school year, there were 1,909 school-based clinics in the country, according to the National Assembly on School-Based Health Care. Of those, a majority treating adolescents — sixthgraders and above — provided some reproductive care on-site.

More than 68 percent of clinics, for example, offered STD testing and treatment.

Of the adolescent clinics, just under 40 percent give out contraception, according to the organization.

Controversy over what the clinics offer The controversy mostly arises around contraception and abortion, Moore said. Some of that controversy, she said, is based on ill-conceived notions of what the clinics would offer.

John McCain following the 2008 presidential race, she did not receive the list of campaign donors she had helped build, so her aides have been creating her own roster, a critical ingredient to a future political bid. More than half of her contributions have come from Texas, Tennessee, Florida, California and New York, but she received donations from all 50 states.

Like other national political figures, Palin has been supporting candidates all year, a mix of Tea Party enthusiasts and a slate of establishment Republicans. But her endorsements did not gain much notice until she weighed in on the South Carolina governor’s race, vaulting Nikki Haley from the bottom rung of candidates to the winner of the Republican nomination last month.

Her choices in governors’ races have hewed closely to preferred candidates of the Republican Governors Association, including in Iowa, where the presidential race begins.

The endorsements provide little evidence that she is moving closer to a presidential run.

A willingness to inject herself into so many primary fights and aggravate the supporters of the candidates she overlooks is a risky way of building establishment support.

“The fear is we’re going to be handing out condoms to secondgraders. That’s not what this is about,” Moore said.

How the clinics give pregnancy counseling also sparks concern.

If the clinic offered pregnancy counseling, it would give “all-options counseling,” Moore said, meaning counseling would include a discussion about keeping the child, adoption and abortion.

“This is what’s controversial.

Parents are very concerned about that piece,” Moore said. “We would present every option with the pregnancy. ... Even then, it would never be like you hear in the news, all the scare stories like transporting kids for abortions.

That would never happen here.”

Those are the kinds of stories that Redmond School Board member Dan Murphy wants to avoid.

Murphy, a family practice doctor, is thrilled the district will have two school-based clinics — the other is at M.A. Lynch Elementary School — offering care to students who most likely would struggle to find it elsewhere. The clinics give students in need a medical home, rather than crisis-inspired visits to the emergency room.

But Murphy understands the questions around reproductive health could become complex. To avoid that, Murphy has encouraged the district to gather as much data as possible before making a final decision.

The district should not make a decision quickly — the clinic can open before the choice is made — and it should do so with as little emotion as possible, he said.

The district, Murphy said, will also go through a long public process, holding meetings to discuss the pros and cons. That will likely happen in the fall.

“Rather than have each individual board member give a personal opinion, I felt a process by which we get the community’s opinion and also let the community know what’s being done in school clinics in other parts (of the country) would work,” Murphy said.

But Murphy and Hinman said they understand having an eventempered discussion around the sexual health of teenagers will not be easy. Still, they both hope the discussion happens.

“We want it not to be an emotional or ethical conversation, which is difficult,” Hinman said.

WASHINGTON — Answering the GI Rights Hotline for the last 11 years, J.E. McNeil has counseled thousands of soldiers who want to become conscientious objectors and get out of the service.

But when the House voted May 27 to allow the repeal of the “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy, paving the way for gay men and lesbians in the military to be open about their sexual orientation, McNeil got a hotline call that raised a new issue: The caller said he considered homosexuality an abomination and wanted to be a conscientious objector because he could not serve in the military alongside gay soldiers.

“I told him I wasn’t trying to criticize, but he was already serving with gays, since there’s lots of gays in the military now,” said McNeil, the executive director of the Center on Conscience & War, a nonprofit group that supports conscientious objectors. “He said, ‘Yes, but now if they come out, they can be forced out. But if homosexuality is actually allowed, I will be housed with somebody who’s sexually attracted to me.’”

For McNeil, a Quaker lawyer committed to helping anyone with valid legal grounds get out of the military, the call presented a legal and personal conundrum — and a possible unintended consequence of a repeal of the “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy.

“I told him it was outside the norm, and I’d have to think about whether it met the legal criteria,” she said. “I won’t tell you my internal dialogue. But I will tell you I have a brother who died of AIDS and a sister who’s a lesbian.”

The next day, while McNeil was thinking through the legal ramifications, the center got an e-mail message raising the same issue.

“This is just the beginning,” McNeil said. “When the other shoe drops and the policy actually ends, I think we’re going to get a lot of these.”

The 1993 “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy was a compromise under which the military would not

investigate individuals’ sexual orientation, and gay men and lesbians would not discuss their sexual orientation.

Although President Barack Obama supports the policy’s repeal, it is not likely to happen this year. The Pentagon is studying the effects of allowing openly gay service members, and no action will be taken until the Pentagon report is complete and the defense secretary, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the president all certify that repeal would not harm military effectiveness.

In her years at the center, McNeil has grappled with other cases that conflicted with her personal views.

“I had one woman who said she was a born-again Christian and had come to believe that a woman’s place was in the home, raising a family, so she had to get out of the military because of her religious beliefs,” she said.

“As a feminist, I wasn’t wild about that. But she fit the legal criteria, and we helped her get out.”

In the “don’t ask, don’t tell” cases, McNeil concluded that there was no legal basis for a conscientious objector claim.

The legal standard, she said, is that the person must be conscientiously opposed to participat-

ing in war in any form, based on a sincerely held religious, moral or ethical belief. And the person must have had a change of heart since joining the military, when the person signed a form saying he or she was not a conscientious objector and did not intend to become one.

“In the ‘don’t ask, don’t tell’ situation, they’re not opposed to participating in war, they’re opposed to who they’re participating with,” McNeil said.

McNeil’s center gets about 150 calls a month, about 100 from people who are either absent

without leave or about to be, and about 20 asking about becoming a conscientious objector.

“After talking to literally thousands of callers,” McNeil said, “I honestly believe that many of the people who go AWOL or commit suicide are people who are struggling with their conscience.”

You will likely need to deal with the landlord.

Almost all commercial leases give the landlord the right to accept or reject a new tenant. If you have such a lease and you do not obtain the landlord’s prior written approval to assign or sublease the business premises to a new person, you will be in default of the lease and subject to potential liability. Even if the landlord is willing to consent, you are not relieved from further liability on the lease unless the consent form expressly includes such a release.

If my spouse and I have kids from prior marriages, how can I make sure my kids will inherit my assets if I die before my spouse?

The cleanest way to make sure your kids will inherit your assets after your death, should your spouse survive you, is to have your spouse sign a prenuptial agreement before marriage agreeing that your assets will continue to be your separate property after death and disclaiming the spouse’s right to an elective share of your estate if you die first. Then you can execute a will or trust to leave your assets directly to your children. This will have the effect of disinheriting your spouse if you die first. If you don’t want to disinherit your spouse entirely, you can leave your assets in a trust that your spouse can have access to during your spouse’s lifetime, and which will be distributed to your kids after your spouse’s death.

was in meetings in Kabul with Kolenda, village elders and at times Obama’s new commander, McChrystal. (By then at least two more military wives — Deborah Mullen and Holly Petraeus — had told their husbands to read “Three Cups of Tea.”) As Kolenda tells it, Mortenson and his Afghan partner on the ground, Wakil Karimi, were the American high command’s primary conduits for reaching out to elders outside the “Kabul bubble.”

As Mortenson tells it, the Afghan elders were often blunt with McChrystal, as in a meeting in October when one of them said that he had traveled all the way from his province because he needed weapons, not conversation.

“He said, ‘‘Are you going to give them to me or am I going to sit here and listen to you talk,’” Mortenson recalled. The high command replied, Mortenson said, that they were making an assessment of what he needed. “And he said, ‘Well, you’ve already been here eight years,” Mortenson recalled.

Despite the rough edges, Kolenda said, the meetings helped the American high command settle on central parts of its strategy — the imperative to avoid civilian casualties, in particular, which the elders consistently and angrily denounced during the sessions — and also smoothed relations between the elders and commanders.

For Mortenson’s part, his growing relationship with the military convinced him that it had learned the importance of understanding Afghan culture and of developing ties with elders across the country, and was willing to admit past mistakes.

At the end of this month, Mortenson, who lives in Bozeman, Mont., with his wife, Tara Bishop, and two children, is going back for the rest of the summer to Afghanistan, where to maintain credibility he now has to make it clear to Afghans and a number of aid organizations that he has no formal connection to the American military.

Mortenson acknowledges that his solution in Afghanistan, girls’ education, will take a generation and more.

“But al-Qaida and the Taliban are looking at it long range over generations,” he said. “And we’re looking at it in terms of annual fiscal cycles and presidential elections.”

THE BULLETIN • Sunday, July 18, 2010 A7

Death Continued from A1 Facebook says it has been grappling with how to handle the ghosts in its machine, shuffling dead friends through its social algorithms, but acknowledges that it has not found a good solution.

“It’s a very sensitive topic,” said Meredith Chin, a company spokeswoman, “and, of course, seeing deceased friends pop up can be painful.”

Given the site’s size, “and people passing away every day, we’re never going to be perfect at catching it,” she added.

James Katz, a professor of communications at Rutgers University, said the company was experiencing “a comingof-age problem.”

“So many of Facebook’s early users were young, and death was rare and unduly tragic,” Katz said.

Now, people older than 65 are adopting Facebook at a faster pace than any other age group, with 6.5 million signing up in May alone, three times as many as in May 2009, according to the research firm comScore. These people, of course, also have the country’s highest mortality rate, so the problem is only going to get worse.

Tamu Townsend, a 37-yearold technical writer in Montreal, said she regularly received prompts to connect with acquaintances and friends who had died. “Sometimes it’s quite comforting when their faces show up,” Townsend said. “But at some point it doesn’t become comforting to see that. The service is telling you to reconnect with someone you can’t. If it’s someone that has passed away recently enough, it smarts.”

Purvin, a 36-year-old teacher living in Plano, Texas, said that after she got over the initial jolt of seeing her friend’s face, she was happy for the reminder. “It made me start talking about him and thinking about him, so that was good,” she said. “But it was definitely a little creepy.”

Facebook’s approach to the deaths of its users has evolved over time. Early on, it would immediately erase the profile of anyone it learned had died.

Chin says Facebook now

Brandon Thibodeaux / New York Times News Service

Facebook suggested that Courtney Purvin, of Plano, Texas, get in touch with a friend who had died months earlier. The social network is struggling to figure out when one of its roughly 500 million users has died. “It was like he was coming back from the dead,” said Purvin, displaying her own Facebook page on her laptop. recognizes the importance of finding an appropriate way to preserve those pages as a place where the mourning process can be shared online.

Following the Virginia Tech shootings in 2007, members begged the company to allow them to commemorate the victims. Now member profiles can be “memorialized,” or converted into tribute pages that are stripped of some personal information and no longer appear in search results. Grieving friends can still post messages on those pages.

Of course, the company still needs to determine whether a user is, in fact, dead. But with a ratio of roughly 350,000 members to every Facebook employee, the company must find ways to let its members and its computers do much of that work.

To memorialize a profile, a family member or friend must fill out a form on the site and provide proof of the death, like a link to an obituary or news article, which a staff member at Facebook will then review. But this option is not well publicized, so many profiles of dead members never are converted to tribute pages. Those people continue to appear on other members’ pages as friend suggestions, or in features like the “reconnect” box.

Chin said Facebook was considering using software that would scan for repeated postings of phrases like “Rest in peace” or “I miss you” on a person’s page and then dispatch a human to investigate that account.

The scanning approach could invite pranks — as the notification form already has. The memorializing process has other quirks, too. Memorial profiles cannot add new friends, so if parents joined the site after a child died, they would not have permission to see all the messages and photos shared by the child’s friends.

These are issues Facebook no doubt wishes it could avoid entirely. But death, of course, is unavoidable, and so Facebook must find a way to integrate it into the social experience online.

“They don’t want to be the bearer of bad tidings, but yet they are the keeper of those living memories,” Katz, the Rutgers professor, said. “That’s a real downer for a company that wants to be known for social connections and good news.”

Kashmir’s youths take up traditional weapon: the stone

By Emily Wax The Washington Post

SRINAGAR, Indian-administered Kashmir — One minute, a shaggy-haired 21-year-old is on the Internet, mixing brooding rock music with video footage of young Kashmiris protesting Indian control of this disputed Himalayan region. The next, he’s out on the streets wielding a more traditional weapon: the stone.

The latest outbreak of dissent here, dubbed “Kashmir’s stone war,” marks a shift in the mostly Muslim region’s long-running struggle for autonomy. In a post9/11, globalized world, Pakistanbacked separatists no longer roam the streets of this summer capital with guns. Instead, the heirs to the conflict are styling their discontent after cellphone images of the Palestinian uprising and its stonethrowing youths.

“If we take up arms, the world will call us terrorists. Stone pelting is the only way to fight for our freedom,” said Sajid Shah, aka Lion of Allah, who was editing his videos in hiding Wednesday. “It makes India think. It makes the

Genetic tests Continued from A1 Weinrich was one of 87 people who received incorrect results last month because of a laboratory mix-up involving customers of 23andMe, a testing company backed in part by Google. The Mountain View, Calif., testing company says it regrets the incident and noted that it spotted the mistakes quickly, notified the clients and has taken steps to prevent future errors.

But the blunder has fueled a debate over whether the government should more aggressively police the proliferating tests. Critics say too many make claims that go far beyond the science, yield results too complicated for people to interpret on their own or are just plain wrong. Others, however, fear more federal oversight will make the tests too expensive and hard to get.

“If you have things completely unregulated, then you have a Wild West of commercial interests around medical information,” said Robert Green, director of Boston University’s Center for Translational Genomics and Health Outcomes. “If you overregulate, you run the risk of stifling innovation in a very dynamic industry.”

New frontiers Genetic testing has become one of the flash points in the larger question raised by new technologies that are fueling a movement toward more unfettered access to information: When does government intervention cross from prudent and necessary to intrusive and paternalistic?

Dozens of companies offer tests that claim to tell people everything from what foods they should eat to live longer and what cosmetics they should use to whether they are at risk for cancer, Alzheimer’s and other ailments, and how some prescription medications will affect them. Many think that genetic testing is key for the future of “personalized medicine,” which tailors cures to people’s genes. But few tests have undergone stringent scientific validation.

Mounting concerns have prompted the Food and Drug Administration, which has long resisted calls to regulate the field, to begin stepping in. In May, the agency scuttled plans by Pathway Genomics of San Diego to sell genetic tests in Walgreens stores.

Several weeks later, the FDA sent letters to five companies that were selling tests over the Internet, declaring that their kits are medical devices and must undergo federal scrutiny. This week, the agency is convening a public hearing to debate what regulatory role it should play.

“It’s come to the point where really there’s a need for some oversight,” said Alberto Gutierrez, who heads the FDA’s Office of In Vitro Diagnostics. Results from questionable tests can be unnecessarily alarming, Gutierrez said, adding that some women have undergone surgery, for example, based on tests that purport to gauge the risk for ovarian cancer.

“We know of reports of people who have found a test, found a doctor that is willing to order the test since they are so afraid of the disease and even removed ovaries based on questionable results,” Gutierrez said. What’s more, without a genetic expert to interpret the often-nuanced results of valid tests, patients who test negative might be falsely reassured, critics argue. Women might think they are safe from breast cancer,

world think: What’s happening in Kashmir? We will get our freedom with the stone.”

In the past few weeks, the protests have grown deadly, with at least 15 young people killed when Indian security forces fired into crowds of stone throwers. The new tactic — which India’s Central Reserve Police Force chief, N.K. Tripati, has described as “gunless terrorism” — is testing India’s ability to manage dissent in the region and to protect its image as an aspiring superpower that hopes for a seat on the U.N. Security Council.

Many Indians have said that the security forces should find safer methods of controlling teenagers who pelt them with stones.

Kashmir remains at the heart of hostility between the nucleararmed arch rivals India and Pakistan and was the cause of two of their three wars since India achieved independence from Britain in 1947. Fighting over the region has left tens of thousands of people dead, and many ordinary Kashmiris voice a desire for independence from both countries. Others just want Indian forces to leave.

for example, and stop getting mammograms without realizing that they might still be in danger because of genes not included in the test or other factors.

“That’s my nightmare scenario,” said Hank Greely, director of Stanford University’s Center for Law and the Biosciences. Even when the results are accurate, public perceptions often exaggerate the current power of genetic testing, many experts say.

“What one hears frequently is that simply knowledge of one’s various risks is a ‘road map to better health.’ That is profoundly inaccurate and premature,” said James Evans, a professor of genetics and medicine at the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill.

“We have little, if any, evidence that the provision of such information actually results in better health.”

The FDA did not want to specify what action the agency will consider at this week’s hearing.

Mandatory registry?

The National Institutes of Health is creating a registry to help consumers learn what genetic tests are available and evaluate their scientific validity. But signing up is voluntary for companies, and some experts argue that the first step should be to make the registry mandatory.

“What I think we need is greater transparency and information gathering about tests on the market, how that information is being reported to patients and how patients or doctors are using that information,” said Daniel Vorhaus, an attorney who edits of the Genomics Law Report, an online publication.

The tests provide people with information that motivates many to take steps to protect their health, others say, noting that laboratories are regulated through the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid to guarantee basic proficiency. The already-stretched FDA could become overwhelmed if it took on the task of going further and verifying the complex science underlying many of the tests’ claims, they argue.

“While regulations are sometimes necessary to protect consumers, people also need to remember that they come at a cost,” said Daniel MacArthur, who writes about genetic testing on his blog, Genetic Future.

Advocates for patients suffering from rare diseases are especially concerned companies will have little financial incentive to develop tests if increased regulation makes them too costly.

“The risk of losing these tests is significant,” said Michael Watson of the American College of Medical Genetics.

The prospect of greater FDA regulation is being met with mixed reaction by companies.

Officials from several said they welcome reasonable new controls that might help eliminate lessscrupulous hawkers. Some also expressed concern about interference with the public’s access.

“If you look back a few decades, people were not told about their diagnosis of cancer, and it was thought we need to protect them from that information. Now that seems ridiculous,” said Joanna Mountain, senior director of research at 23andMe, which was co-founded by Anne Wojcicki, wife of Google’s Sergey Brin.

“The same thing goes for genetic information. We have many, many people who are very, very curious and want to know, and are capable of handling this information.”

Abbas: Israel must accept border force The Associated Press

The Associated Press

Kashmiri Muslims protest against the killings of youths in Srinagar last week. India and Pakistan have fought two wars over the Himalayan region. Kashmiri separatists are demanding independence from Hindu-majority India or a merger with Muslim-majority Pakistan.

RAMALLAH, West Bank — Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas said he’ll resume direct peace talks if Israel accepts its 1967 frontier as a baseline for the borders of a Palestinian state and agrees to the deployment of an international force to guard them.

Abbas is under growing pressure from the U.S. to resume negotiations, and met Saturday with Barack Obama’s Mideast envoy, George Mitchell.

Abbas’ latest comments, published Saturday in the Jordanian newspaper Al-Ghad, hinted at some flexibility in his position. However, it seemed unlikely Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu would meet Abbas’ demands. Netanyahu has refused to be pinned down on a framework for negotiations, insisting on talks without conditions.

Washington Week WASHINGTON — Democrats and President Barack Obama crossed another priority off their list last week, after the U.S. Senate passed a bill tightening federal regulation of banks and financial firms.

The bill, along with a massive health care overhaul measure and last year’s stimulus package, is being cited by Democrats as evidence that they’re delivering on electoral promises.

Republicans, including House Minority Leader John Boehner, R-Ohio, called it another instance of overreach by Obama and unnecessary expansion of the federal government.

Leaning over a fence snapping pictures of stunt rider Chris “Teach” McNeil on Saturday afternoon at the Deschutes County Fair & Expo Center, Karl Bresser said he was having a tough time keeping his camera hand steady.

“It’s kind of tricky. You hear the tires squealing and see him coming right at you, you want to turn around and get out of there,” said Bresser, 55, of Bozeman, Mont.

McNeil’s performance was one of six this weekend, part of the BMW Motorcycle Owners of America International Rally.

The rally, which began Thursday, winds down today, and brought an estimated 7,000 motorcycle riders and family members to Redmond.

Part stunt rider and part ambassador for the BMW brand, McNeil, 32, draws his “Teach” nickname from a past life as a middle school Latin teacher. Now a fulltime motorcycle rider, McNeil travels around the country to show off his skills at motorcycle rallies, motorcycle dealerships and corporate events.

• ENCOURAGING TELECOMMUTING BY FEDERAL WORKERS Passed 290-131 on Wednesday The bill promotes “telework” arrangements for federal workers, in part to ensure that the government can continue to function through disturbances like the massive blizzard that descended on Washington, D.C., this winter. Opponents questioned whether workers would be as efficient working from home and the potential for computer data breaches. The Senate passed a similar bill earlier this year.

One person was still hospitalized Saturday night due to injuries suffered in a vehicle crash near Sisters on Friday afternoon that sent six people to the hospital and killed a dog.

Ashley White, 24, of Rockaway Beach, was listed in fair condition at St. Charles Bend as of 9:30 p.m. Saturday.

White was at the wheel of an eastbound Suzuki SUV at around 4:11 p.m., when she crossed the center line on U.S. Highway 20 near Fryrear Road, about 8 miles southeast of Sisters. White’s vehicle struck a westbound Chevrolet pickup driven by Brian Wright, 44, of Bend, head-on, flipping it on its side in the eastbound lane.

• UPDATING FEDERAL FLOOD INSURANCE PROGRAMS Passed 329-90 on Thursday The bill increases premiums and deductibles for homeowners with federal flood insurance, in an attempt to restore solvency to the National Flood Insurance Program. It also increases the coverage limits to $335,000 for private homes. The bill would extend the program for five years. The program has been extended four times this year, as politicians failed to find a long-term compromise. It now goes to the U.S. Senate.

Sisters School District taxes going down

By Scott Hammers The Bulletin

Residents of the Sisters School District should expect to see their property taxes going down in 2011, Superintendent Jim Golden announced Friday.

In a update to district supporters, Golden wrote that the bond that paid for the construction of Sisters Middle School will be paid off by the end of the year. As a result, property taxes will drop by approximately 85 cents per $1,000 of assessed value in 2011.

Originally built as a combination middle school and high school, the building that now houses Sisters Middle School was built in 1992. In 2001, voters approved a separate bond to construct the current Sisters High School.

Sisters School Board Chairwoman Christine Jones said the tax cut is welcome news.

“I was quite happy to see that

Jim brought this to people’s attention,” she said. “We talked about it during the (January) local option campaign, but it’s good to bring it back into the public eye. Anyone, I’m sure, is delighted to pay less in taxes, especially in this economy.”

The cut would provide a savings of $170 for a homeowner with a house assessed at $200,000.

Golden said the district is exploring additional savings with the refinancing of bonds that were taken out three years ago to fund a roof replacement and remodel of Sisters Elementary School.

Because the district is paying off the bonds with money from the district’s general fund, refinancing will not result in a tax cut for district residents, but will free up dollars for day-to-day operations.

• INCREASING FEDERAL REGULATION OF FINANCIAL COMPANIES Passed 60-39 on Thursday The bill imposes a host of new rules on banks and investment firms. It also creates a new consumer financial protection bureau to guard against misleading financial products and another board tasked with watching out for trends that could threaten the U.S. economy. The most stringent new rules would apply to the largest financial companies, while small banks and auto dealers would be exempt from many of the rules. Most Republicans voted against the bill, on grounds that it would put too many limits on investors, without ending the possibility of future bailouts.

The measure includes a provision co-authored by Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., that bars banks from betting for or against investments that they create or market. The bill already passed the House and is expected to be signed into law this week.

three children were all treated and released at the emergency room Friday.

All occupants in both vehicles were wearing seat belts or riding in car seats, according to the OSP. The dog, a passenger in White’s vehicle, died at the scene.

Sgt. Eric Brown said Saturday that OSP crash scene investigators have the weekend off, but will be resuming their investigation early next week. The results of any toxicology tests administered to the two drivers will not be available to the OSP for about a month.

“If it’s determined its just driver error and nothing on board, I suspect there could be a citation issued later,” he said.

Brown said the highway makes a wide, sweeping turn near the crash site but is in good condition.

Traffic was detoured around the crash site Friday for about three hours until the highway was reopened.

O In Lane County, foster care lags for kids out of custody

By Jack Moran (Eugene) Register-Guard

SPRINGFIELD — Josiah Trigg is one of the lucky ones, and the 19-year-old knows it.

Upon being released from a rehabilitation facility after his incarceration at an Oregon Youth Authority correctional facility, Trigg was able to move back to his hometown to get his life on track, thanks to a Springfield couple’s offer to become his foster parents.

Most Lane County youths who re-enter society after a stint behind bars aren’t so fortunate.

Once state officials deem them ready to move out of incarceration and into a foster home, if their own family homes aren’t stable, local youths typically get shipped to other parts of Oregon.

Kelly Crain, a foster care certifier for the state youth authority, said she understands why people may be reluctant to open their homes to young parolees and probationers.

“A lot of people hear ‘youth offender’ and get intimidated,” Crain said.

But she said state officials wouldn’t release a youth to a foster home until he or she can prove mainly through mandatory treatment programs and an evaluation that they want to succeed.

“Otherwise, we wouldn’t place them in foster care,” Crain said.

Grades and attitude “When we get to that point, most of the problems (foster parents) end up dealing with are bad grades or a bad attitude,” she said. “What teenager doesn’t have those sorts of issues?”

The state typically pays a foster family $1,003 a month. To be certified, the family must demonstrate financial stability with-

out the payment.

Of the 33 certified homes statewide that now house young parolees and probationers, just two are in Lane County.

During the past year, 17 youth offenders from Lane County have moved into foster care. Fifteen were sent to live with families outside the county, in cities such as Portland, Salem, Coos Bay and Klamath Falls.

Officials say “distance placements” can interfere with a teen’s chance to restore shaky family relationships, or to seek out helpful services in a familiar setting.

Many youths ultimately end up living in the community where they feel most at home, and officials say it’s best to reintroduce them to their hometown while they’re staying with responsible adults.

‘Less effective’ Crain said the out-of-county residences are good homes, “but sending youths far from home means less effective family therapy, fewer visits with family and friends, and loss of familiar school and community supports.”

Trigg, who came from an abusive home, found himself in big trouble after he burglarized a local residence when he was 15.

After his arrest, Trigg spent about seven weeks in detention at the Lane County Juvenile Justice Center.

Trigg managed to graduate from high school last summer, and he has since landed a job.

With plans to attend fall classes at Lane Community College, the 19-year-old hopes to become a computer network specialist.

He completed probation last year, which officially ended the foster family’s commitment, but Trigg continues to live at their home.

Behind budget woes is a slide in incomes

By Tim Fought The Associated Press

PORTLAND — Behind the state’s budget crisis this summer lies a brutal economic truth: Relative to the rest of America, Oregon is getting poorer.

Oregon has been getting poorer, in relative terms, for decades, and the Great Recession has brought the state to a low point.

Oregon now ranks 32nd among the states in per capita personal income, and Oregonians earn slightly more than 90 percent of the national average of the same measurement.

These are the lowest figures for Oregon since the federal government started keeping the measurement — about the same time the stock market crashed in 1929.

It’s not that Oregonians haven’t been able to raise incomes over the years.

Adjusted for inflation, Oregon’s per capita income is higher today: $35,000 in 2009, compared with, for example, $21,000 four decades earlier.

But the rest of the country has done better, raising incomes faster on average. So, Oregon is falling behind. That makes the painful cuts in schools and government expected in coming months just the public symbol of how Oregonians at large are adjusting to a long-term slide relative to other Americans in income.

“That stubborn number is the root of all problems,” said Ryan Deckert, a former legislator who leads the Oregon Business Association. “We’re poorer, our families are poorer, our people are poorer, our public institutions are poorer.”

Economists say the relative measure is significant because as Oregonians’ income drops in relation to that of the rest of the country, it falls behind other states in its ability to pay for consumer goods and government services. That’s

especially true with expenses that rise rapidly, such as health care.

“If you can’t generate income to keep up with those prices, clearly you have a challenge,” said economist Tim Duy of the University of Oregon.

Per capita personal income doesn’t get so much public attention as economic numbers such as the rates of unemployment or interest. It’s a broad measure, tracking wages, salaries, transfer payments such as Social Security and business related sources such as dividends, interest and rental payments. It doesn’t include corporate income.

Before it was abolished in a round of budget cutting last year, the Oregon Progress Board called it the top economic “area of concern” among dozens of benchmarks it tracked.

This summer, a panel of close advisers to Gov. Ted Kulongoski said the figure was fundamental to its conclusions: Oregonians could no longer afford their state government, there was little prospect that economic growth would allow them to regain their purchasing power, and a wrenching “reset” would be required, slashing government expense well beyond the 9 percent in cuts the governor called for last month.

Some economists see the statistic as an indication that Oregon has yet to come fully to terms with the passage of its time as the nation’s leading producer of lumber and the wealth that timber spread broadly through the state.

Oregon State University economist Patrick Emerson said the wealth of natural resources can be a curse for some economies that don’t put enough money back into the economy.

“I don’t want to push this too far, for there are lots of factors,” he said in an e-mail exchange, “but easy money from resources can often make societies complacent.”

Missing boy’s dad: 3rd party involved The Associated Press PORTLAND — The father of a missing 7-year-old Portland boy says he believes a third party was involved along with his estranged wife in the disappearance of the child six weeks ago.

In e-mail answers to questions Friday from Portland reporters, Kaine Horman gave no basis for his belief other than “briefings.”

The comments were the latest suggestions he’s offered about what might have happened to Kyron Horman, who vanished June 4.

Since then, Kaine Horman has

filed for divorce from Terri Horman, the boy’s stepmother.

She moved out of their house in Portland on Friday and was reported to have moved to Roseburg in Southern Oregon, where she attended high school and her parents live.

In court documents, Kaine Horman has said he believes that his wife was involved in the disappearance, that he’s learned she tried to hire someone to kill him last year and that after the boy disappeared, she began a sexual relationship with a high school acquaintance of his.

Terri Horman has not been charged with a crime nor named as a suspect by investigators.

Her lawyer did not immediately return calls Saturday seeking a response to the husband’s comments. The Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office said it would not comment on Kaine Horman’s allegation about a third party.

In his responses to questions Friday, Kaine Horman did not identify a third party.

“I do believe that it is someone that Kyron has met before — whether I know of the person or they were only a friend of Ter-

ri’s,” he told KPTV. The father also added a bit of detail to reports that Terri Horman had taken a polygraph test twice. After Kyron disappeared, she took a first test, Kaine Horman told The Oregonian newspaper, and she “vented her failed results to all family and friends, and law enforcement at the house.”

She took a second, cut it short, refused to repeat it for several days, and then, after taking the test again, she again came home, “venting to all listeners,” Kaine Horman said.

Worker dismissed by foreman Scientists pursue uses gun for vengeance in 1910 brain protein as Alzheimer’s culprit 100 YEARS AGO For the week ending July 17, 1910

MADRAS MURDER A little after midnight Monday morning, Daniel Carough, an Austrian laborer, shot and killed his foreman, Andrew Melrich, on the grade work of the Oregon Trunk along Willow Creek north of Madras.

On Sunday evening, Carough was “fired” by the foreman, who temporarily was filling the place of the regular boss, because his work was unsatisfactory.

The discharged man trudged to Madras, vowing vengeance on the “straw” boss, and once there supplied himself with a Smith & Wesson “44” and a liberal amount of whiskey. Some hours later, as the foreman and a companion were kneeling on the ground plugging powder into a hole, the latter was startled by the flash of a gun from an embankment directly above them, and without a cry the worker beside him sank to the ground, as afterward developed, with a bullet in his temple.

The murderer made his escape from the crowd of laborers who immediately started in his pursuit, but evidently lost his bearings and kept southward through the sage, instead of to the north.

At seven on Sunday evening, Fred Stanton, of the Madras livery firm of Hood & Stanton, came upon tracks in the wheat fields six miles south of the town.

Cautiously following these, and well knowing that an armed and desperate murderer perhaps watched his approach, the Madras man crept forward into one of the fields on the Dunbrow place. Suddenly, almost under his feet, he came upon Carough — asleep, with his gun in his hand.

Without hesitation, Stanton leaped upon the murderer, grasping his weapon, and had him “covered” in a twinkling.

With the Austrian marching before his captor, the two soon made their way back to Madras, only to find a huge crowd of blood-mad Austrians, fellows of the murdered foreman, wildly clamoring for the murderer’s death. Threats of lynching were made freely, while the suggestion was advanced and enthusiastically received by the foreigners that the captured man be cut in strips, each onlooker to take one such as a souvenir of the occasion.

However, before the multiplying threats ripened into awful realities, the prisoner was hustled out of Madras and taken to Prineville by Sheriff Elkins, where he now is confined in the County Jail. He refuses to discuss the crime. “No sabi” is the extent of his answer to questions regarding it.

75 YEARS AGO For the week ending July 17, 1935

QUEEN VIRGINIA WILL FLY NORTH Miss Virginia Anderson, Bend girl who ruled over this city’s recent Mirror Pond Pageant and the Fourth of July stampede as Queen Virginia I, tomorrow will be taken on an airplane trip to Portland and will be guest of the Portland Lions at their noonday meeting in the Oregon Grille.

Miss Anderson will be accompanied on her trip to Portland by Mrs. Edna Dutt, with Lawrence J. Sohler as pilot.

The Sohler plane will land at the Swan Island airport, where a delegation of Portland Lions will be on hand to meet the Bend girl and her traveling companion. The Lions of Portland are to entertain Miss Anderson. In the evening, Miss Anderson and Mrs. Dutt will be escorted back to Swan Island, for the return flight with Sohler to Bend.

The air trip to Portland in the Sohler plane was one of the awards won by Miss Anderson in placing first in Bend’s Fourth of July queen contest.

FOOTBRIDGE TO BE BUILT HERE A contract for the construction of a new footbridge was awarded by the city commission to Luther Metke last night. A price of $734 was set, and September 1 was fixed as the date on which the bridge must be completed.

Timbers for the bridge have been on the ground at the west end of the present span for some time. They were prepared under a SERA project.

The new bridge will be of rustic type, with driven pile supports. It will be 8 feet wide, with a clear walk of 7 feet, and about 300 feet long. Two light standards will be placed on the bridge, 100 feet apart and 100 feet from each end.

Redecking of the Newport Avenue bridge was started yesterday, and the bridge will be closed to traffic the rest of the week.

The Tumalo Avenue bridge was redecked several weeks ago.

50 YEARS AGO For the week ending July 17, 1960 THE STUMP HAS A STORY TO TELL In Drake Park is a stump with a story.

It is not a wooden stump, remnant of an old juniper or pine.

It is stone, and it stands in a cement base a short distance north of the high wheels.

Vacationists visiting the park

these summer days are asking about the stony stump and its story.

The stump is petrified wood.

Long ago, when the late “Klondike Kate” homesteaded on the high desert east of Bend, she noticed a piece of the stump protruding from the ground after the area was whipped by a high wind.

Through the years, more of the stump appeared on the hillside. Eventually, “Klondike Kate” moved into Bend. She told two fire department members, LeRoy Fox and Rudy Brentano, about the stump. They offered to bring it into town.

The massive stump, weighing several hundred pounds, was set up at the rear of the Bend Fire Hall. There it remained many years, until an addition was built on the hall.

Then the stump was moved to Drake Park and set in cement.

But, of course, that is only part of the story of the stump.

Long eons ago, it was part of a great redwood forest that grew in the present high desert of Central Oregon.

Eventually the big tree was buried in silt, possibly by a flooding river. It turned to stone.

As millenniums passed, rain forests disappeared. Interior Oregon was uplifted, the clouddraining Cascades appeared in the west. The Oregon plateau became arid.

Desert winds whipped over the region and exposed the long buried tree.

It is there that the modern story of the Drake Park stump begins.

SENATOR KENNEDY WINS NOMINATION ON FIRST BALLOT There were golden stairs down the center of the rostrum at the Democratic National Convention, and Sen. John F. Kennedy came down them like a new contestant in a big money television quiz show.

The Los Angeles Sports Arena, dirty and littered with “All the way with LBJ” and “Stevenson for President” signs, exploded in applause, and the young senator from Massachusetts stepped into the major league of American politics.

25 YEARS AGO For the week ending July 17, 1985 DOWNTOWN LANDMARK WAS PRIDE OF EARLY BEND CENTRAL OREGON’S FINEST BUSINESS BLOCK — New O’Kane Building is Modern Type. Cost is estimated at $50,000. Offices are large and well-lighted. Mr. O’Kane’s apartments neat.

The headlines on the front page of the Nov. 22 Bend Bulletin testified to the impressiveness of

Hugh O’Kane’s new building on the corner of Oregon and Bond streets.

The reporter covering the opening noted the Dream Theater on the first floor and said Bend was “blessed.”

“It has been the determination of every businessman in this handsome structure to maintain the high standard shown in the construction of the building,” the reporter wrote.

O’Kane, a short, overweight man who first arrived in Bend in 1903, was hailed in the news story as a thrill seeker who lived life to the fullest.

A feature story on O’Kane was headlined, “O’Kane’s Life is Checkered,” and “Builder’s Career is Eventful.” The story’s lead then outlined that “checkered” lifestyle.

“Stowaway, newsboy, prizefighter, politician, jockey, hotel owner, miner and globetrotter sums up his activities.

O’Kane said he stowed away on a ship in the 1860s in order to come to the U.S. from his native Ireland.

In 1905, he built the Bend Hotel on his property on Bond and Oregon. It was destroyed by fire in 1915.

O’Kane, who had entered Bend politics in the interim, decided when the hotel was destroyed that he would build the “finest building block” in Central Oregon. The new building would be cement and brick so fire would not cause its demise.

He completed the building in the summer of 1916. It was first occupied in November of that year.

In addition to the short-lived Dream Theatre, O’Kane had a ready list of businesses eager to occupy his building. O’Kane himself lived for many years on the second floor of the building.

One of the original occupants was Magill Drug, which is the oldest Bend business still surviving in its original location.

But the business that brought crowds to the building was the Palace Saloon, filling the space vacated by the Dream Theatre.

The Palace Saloon was a favorite haunt of Bend businessmen.

Later it was Cashman’s men’s clothing store.

O’Kane suffered declining health in the late 1920s. He would sit in a chair in front of his building and talk to passers-by.

He was enjoying the success of his building, which was repeatedly toasted by the Bend community. The reporter said — “He said at the time when completed it would be the finest business block in Central Oregon. The general belief is that he has fulfilled that promise in the erection of the O’Kane Building.”

Rally Continued from B1 Saturday, McNeil entertained a crowd of a couple hundred people, pirouetting on his bike’s front wheel, pulling near-vertical wheelies that scraped his saddle bags across the pavement and performing handstands atop the seat of his motorcycle.

McNeil said most of his tricks are adopted from things he figured out on his own while riding on the street. Demonstrating how he can creep his bike slowly forward simply by manipulating the brake and clutch, McNeil said that, while it doesn’t make for the most eye-popping trick, learning precisely how the controls work is something any rider can do.

“I know it looks boring and slow, but if you can do this, you can do just about anything on a motorcycle,” he said.

Signing autographs and fielding questions from spectators after the show, McNeil said he’s lucked into a pretty good gig since he quit teaching. Gesturing to one of his S 1000 RR superbikes — a $14,000 BMW race bike that can go from zero to 60 in under three seconds — McNeil said his sponsors have been generous with him.

“The only thing they didn’t give me — I asked for four of those, and they only gave me three,” he said with a laugh. “Life is tough.”

Where Buyers And Sellers Meet 1000’s Of Ads Every Day

By Gina Kolata New York Times News Service

Marilyn Maldonado is not quite sure why she is at the Memory Enhancement Center in the seaside town of Oakhurst, N.J. “What are we waiting for?” she asks.

About 10 minutes later, she asks again. Then she asks again.

She is waiting to enter a new type of Alzheimer’s drug study that will, in the boldest effort yet, test the leading hypothesis about how to slow or stop this terrifying brain disease.

The disease is defined by freckles of barnacle-like piles of a protein fragment, amyloid beta, in the brain. So, the current thinking goes, if you block amyloid formation or get rid of amyloid accumulations — plaque — and if you start treatment before the disease is well under way, you might have a chance to alter its course.

On Tuesday, that plan got a new push. The National Institute on Aging and the Alzheimer’s Association proposed new guidelines for diagnosis to find signs of Alzheimer’s in people who do not yet have severe symptoms, or even any symptoms at all.

Testing The guidelines are needed for the new approach to Alzheimer’s drug development. Just about every pharmaceutical company and many biotechnology companies have experimental drugs to block amyloid — there are more than 100 in the pipeline.

And the companies would like to show that if they give their drugs early, they can slow or stop the disease.

That is the ultimate goal for the drug in the study Maldonado wants to enter, sponsored by Bristol-Myers Squibb. The company is, for the first time, testing such a drug in patients who, on evaluation with memory tests and new brain scans and tests for amyloid in cerebrospinal fluid, seem to be in a very early stage of Alzheimer’s. The idea is to attack the disease when there may still be time to stop the worst brain cell death.

But there is a problem. The Food and Drug Administration says it needs to know not just that plaque was reduced or even that it disappeared, but that those who took a drug ended up with better memory and better ability to think and reason as compared with those who did not take the drug.

Alzheimer’s, though, progresses so slowly that showing that a drug, started early, affects symptoms can take far longer than companies can afford to wait.

There is reason not to accept other forms of proof, like scans or cerebrospinal fluid that show changes in amyloid in the brain, the FDA says. The agency has

approved drugs for diseases, including sudden death from heart arrhythmias, on the basis of tests that showed symptoms, like heart rhythms, improved.

Then it turned out the drugs did not affect the course of the disease and, in the case of the heart drugs, actually hastened death.

So the Alzheimer’s field is poised at an agonizing point — ready to move forward with new methods of diagnosis and drugs that might modify the course of the disease — but without proof that blocking amyloid actually makes a difference.

Strategies In the meantime, BristolMyers is trying a two-pronged strategy to gain faster approval. It is starting treatment early, but not so early that patients are a decade or more away from Alzheimer’s. And as it looks for effects on symptoms like memory and reasoning, the company will be tracking what happens to amyloid in the brain, hoping to show symptoms improve or no longer worsen as plaque formation slows or stops.

It is a gamble for the company, because even people with fairly mild symptoms may have too much brain damage to be helped. But it is a strategy that makes sense, said Dr. Dennis Selkoe, a Harvard University researcher who is not affiliated with the study.

“In my view, the sweet spot for amyloid-lowering trials is mild Alzheimer’s disease,” Selkoe said. “As soon as one of those trials shows benefit, everyone will move to prevention trials. They will begin treating before there are symptoms.”

Maldonado may be one of the pioneers.

Amyloid hypothesis Considering how important a medical problem Alzheimer’s is — afflicting 5.3 million Americans, the seventh-leading cause of death, and devastating and bankrupting families — it took a surprisingly long time to be recognized as a disease at all.

And it took longer still to reach any kind of agreement on its cause.

Dr. Paul Aisen, an Alzheimer’s expert at the University of California, San Diego, remembers well the old days, in the late 1970s. He was in medical school, studying to be a geriatrician. There was no discussion of Alzheimer’s disease.

Then, in 1976, doctors’ eyes were opened by an editorial in Archives of Neurology by Dr. Robert Katzman, a neurologist.

Alzheimer’s, he wrote, is not rare — it is common.

Neurologists took note. But it was 20 years before there were any drugs for Alzheimer’s, and the four approved so far treat only symptoms.

Robert ‘Bob’ R. Chaves Sept. 15, 1925 - July 7, 2010 In an answer to the prayers of all who loved him, God wrapped his arms around Robert R. (Bob) Chaves and took him home on July 7, 2010.

Bob was born on September 15th, 1925, in Turner, Oregon to John and Ruth Robert ‘Bob’ R. Chaves. He and his Chaves mother moved to Newport, Oregon shortly after his birth and he remained there until moving to Salem, Oregon to graduate from High School.

Bob joined the 26th Infantry Division, United States Army, and fought in the European theater in World War II. He returned home to Oregon and went to work in the Timber Industry in various mills in California and Oregon. During this time he became a saw filer. He was the Head Saw Filer in mills in Cottage Grove and Molalla, OR. before becoming Head Saw Filer for Willamette Industries in Redmond, Or. in 1969. He held that position until moving to Lebanon, OR. in 1981 and assuming the position of Head Saw Filer for Willamette Industries at the Bauman Mill. He remained there until his retirement October 31, 1991.

On July 7th, 1966, he married the love of his life, Kathlene Faye (Kathie) Warden (Patterson) of Lebanon, Oregon. Together with Kathie's two daughters, Hallie and Molly Warden they began their "adventure" and celebrated 44 years together.

Bob was an avid reader and writer. He was instrumental in developing the first Saw

Filers Educational Program at Oregon State University and remained actively involved in all aspects of Saw Filer training until his death. After his retirement in 1991, Willamette Industries asked Bob to oversee the installation of new technology in their mill in Ruston, Louisiana. After successfully completing that project he was asked to assist the South African Government in developing education programs for their timber industry. Bob became Special Envoy to the South African Saw Doctors Educational Association helping them develop new technology. He and Kathie made their first trip to South Africa in 1999 where Bob addressed the Saw Doctors Annual Convention. Even though Bob suffered form loss of his eyesight to macular degeneration and suffered severe hearing loss, he and Kathie returned to South Africa in 2004 where Bob followed up on the implementation of the upgrades to their saw filing programs. He continued to develop educational material for the Saw Doctors in South Africa until his death. Bob was elected to the National Saw Filers Hall of Fame in 1991.

Bob is survived by his wife, Kathlene Chaves of Bend, OR., his daughter, Hallie A. Hurd and son-in-law, Terry E. Hurd of La Pine, OR, and daughter, Molly J. Krech of Lebanon, OR. He also leaves behind four grandsons, Thomas R. Hurd of Lake Havasu, AZ., Michael A. Hurd and his wife, Kim and Bob's; three great-grandchildren Emily, Mason, and Ryan Hurd all of Beaverton, OR; Patrick W. Hurd of Whitter, CA. and Frank M. Krech of Albany, OR. Memorial Services will be held at St. Martin's Episcopal Church, 1461 Grove St., Lebanon, OR, on August 7th at 10:00 am. Internment at the IOOF Cemetery in Lebanon, OR. has taken place.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be sent to Safe Haven Humane Society, PO Box 2018, Albany, OR. A second memorial service will be held in late August at Stone Lodge Retirement Community in Bend, OR.

Character actor James Gammon dies at 70

By Hal Boedeker The Orlando Sentinel

ORLANDO, Fla. — James Gammon, a graduate of Orlando’s Boone High School who became one of the top character actors in movies, television and theater, died Friday in Costa Mesa, Calif.

He was 70, and also had a home in Ocala.

“He had cancer 2½ years ago,” his wife, Nancy, said Saturday. “It came back aggressively about a month ago in his adrenal glands and liver, and he was very weak.

They couldn’t do surgery or chemotherapy. He decided he wanted to come home, and we did hospice.”

Gammon started his career by working at Channel 6 (then with the call letters WDBO) and acting in local theater. He moved on to California, acted in TV series and made his film debut in “Cool Hand Luke,” the 1967 classic starring Paul Newman.

Gammon logged more than 135 television and screen credits, from “The Wild Wild West” and “Gunsmoke” to “Grey’s Anatomy” and “Monk.”

Sisters Continued from B1 Golden said the district has only paid interest on the bonds until now, but a lower interest rate could provide some savings when it begins paying on the principal next year. He said he couldn’t estimate the potential savings, but that the district will be meeting in late July with a representative of its financing company to discuss options.

Golden said the district had expected faster growth in its student population, which makes paying off the bonds more difficult than anticipated. Losing students — a possibility, depending on how the Department of Justice investigation into how students in online charter schools were counted by the Sisters School District turns out. The investigation could result in an even harder financial hit, he said.

A flat or declining enrollment does reduce pressure to build new schools, Jones said, which should mean the tax savings for residents of the district could continue into the foreseeable future.

“Given we’ve had a decline in enrollment, I think we have a fair amount of head space in which to grow,” she said. “In terms of bonds for new buildings, given what we know now, I would expect that we’re not going to be looking anytime in the near future at new buildings.”

Australian conductor Charles Mackerras, 84

By Allan Kozinn New York Times News Service

Sir Charles Mackerras, an Australian conductor who played a crucial role in establishing Janacek’s operas in the West; made important discoveries about vocal ornamentation in Mozart operas; and was an elegant conductor of Gilbert and Sir Charles Su l l iv a n’s Mackerras operettas and Mozart, Mendelssohn and Brahms symphonies, died Wednesday in London, where he lived. He was 84.

His death was announced by his management agency, Askonas Holt of London.

Mackerras was known for performances that were revelatory not only because of their clarity and precision, their astutely judged balances and their consideration of period style, but also because they invariably sounded so deeply felt. He seemed to have an unerring instinct for the right string weights and inflections in Classical and early Romantic works, the right ornaments in Baroque music and the right sense of earthy realism in contemporary scores.

New directions But his choices were informed by more than instinct.

Having grown up hearing Handel, for example, in the fleshed-out re-orchestrations that were common in the 1930s, he made a point of seeking out the original scores and tailoring his own performances to contours that Handel would have found more familiar. An encounter with early performing materials from Mozart operas, which had florid embellishments written into the vocal parts, made him reconsider how Mozart should be performed.

Both those realizations came before detailed research into period style was commonplace, and they occurred early enough in Mackerras’ career to win him considerable attention.

In the case of Handel, a 1959 recording of the “Music for the Royal Fireworks,” using Handel’s original wind scoring — including 26 oboists — was done in a single late-night session and edited and released by the British Pye label within a few days. It quickly became a classic account of the work.

The first fruit of Mackerras’ Mozart research was a landmark performance of “The Marriage of Figaro” at the Sadler’s Wells Opera, in 1965.

Alan Charles MacLaurin Mackerras was born in Schenectady, N.Y., to Australian parents, on Nov. 17, 1925, and

Britain’s Queen Elizabeth II presents the inaugural Queen’s Medal for Music to Australian musician Sir Charles Mackerras, right, on Nov. 22, 2005, at Buckingham Palace in London. The Queen’s Master of Music Sir Peter Maxwell Davies, center, witnesses the event. The conductor died Wednesday of cancer at age 84. moved with his family to Sydney, where he was raised. In grammar school he developed an interest in Gilbert and Sullivan operettas, encouraged by his school’s practice of regularly staging productions of the works. Because all the roles (including the female ones) were sung by the school’s boys, he got to know the scores thoroughly.

This knowledge not only helped him become a superb Gilbert and Sullivan conductor but also persuaded him that Sullivan’s music would benefit from arrangement in a popular ballet score, along the lines of “Gaite Parisienne,” Manuel Rosenthal’s suite based on Offenbach themes. Mackerras found an opportunity to create a Sullivan ballet in 1951, when he was commissioned to produce the music for “Pineapple Poll,” a work still performed periodically.

In 1947, having completed his studies at the Sydney Conservatorium and worked as an oboist in the Sydney Symphony, Mackerras moved to London, where he joined the orchestra of the Sadler’s Wells Opera. At Sadler’s Wells he met his wife, Judy, a clarinetist, who survives him, as does a daughter, Catherine.

(Another daughter, Fiona, died several years ago.) At Sadler’s Wells, he also met a Czech musician who persuaded him to apply for a scholarship to study conducting in Prague.

His teacher there was the

eminent conductor Vaclav Talich, and it was while watching Talich prepare a performance of Janacek’s “Katya Kabanova” that Mackerras found himself “completely and utterly bowled over,” he said in a 2009 interview with Opera Britannia.

Mackerras gave the British premiere of “Katya Kabanova” at Sadler’s Wells in 1951 and helped bring the rest of the composer’s operas to Western houses, where they are now firmly established.

He also made a renowned set of Janacek recordings for Decca.

His studies in Prague and his championship of Janacek in London created conducting opportunities for Mackerras in Eastern Europe and Russia.

London debut His career took off in the West as well. He made his London opera conducting debut with a 1948 production of Johann Strauss’ “Fledermaus.” For his Covent Garden debut, in 1964, he led Shostakovich’s “Katarina Ismailova.” He made his Metropolitan Opera debut leading Gluck’s “Orfeo ed Euridice” in 1972 When Mackerras conducted symphonic works, he painstakingly marked the scores with his preferences about bowings, dynamics and other technical issues, as a way of saving time in rehearsal. The results could be luminous, as his recordings of the Mozart symphonies attest.

Lunna was a very positive person and loved life. Her sense of humor was admired by all who met her. Her spunkiness tickled the hearts of many. She had many interests including golf in her earlier days, bridge, reading, crocheting, cooking and bingo. She was involved with Girl Scouts, as a troop leader, for many years, and was active in many church activities.

GREEN ENERGY Cooling with common Cents!

Recently, Randall Marchington, an expert Mechanical Estimator from Bend Heating answered questions about what his first choices are when choosing a heating and cooling system in the Central Oregon area and how people can save money by upgrading now.

Q: Randall, what would your first choice be for an air conditioning system for Central Oregon?

A: For air conditioning, I recommend a 8.65 to 9.10 HSPF Carrier heat pump (HSPF stands for Heating Seasonal Performance Factor) which provides super high efficiency air conditioning for the summer months and ultra-high efficiency heating for the winter months. Basically you get the air conditioning for free.

Q: Don’t heat pumps cost more than air conditioners?

A: Well, recently we’ve been able to put together a unique system with Carrier equipment that costs about the same amount as an air conditioner after incentives. With a heat pump and a Carrier Edge thermostat, you not only get super high efficient air conditioning, but an ultra energy efficient, low cost source of heat in the winter. As a trade ally contractor of Energy Trust of Oregon, we can help with incentives and Oregon Residential Energy Tax Credits to improve the energy efficiency of your home.

Q: Are there incentives like rebates and tax credits available when you convert to a high efficient heat pump versus an air conditioner?

A: Look - We all need to lower our bills don’t we? Our heating & cooling bills are a major expense.

You’ve already given the government your money in taxes and now, they’re offering to give some of it back, put it into your home, make it more energy efficient, healthier and cleaner, with increased resale value. We just need to let people know these incentives are out there for the taking. If people need financing we can help with that too.

Q: How much money can be saved by installing a new ultra - efficient heat pump system?

A: When coupled with duct testing and sealing which is required now in all utility incentified projects, annual heating and cooling costs can be dropped by as much, or more, than 50%!

Q: Why should we change and upgrade our systems now?

A: Obviously, the longer you wait to upgrade, the more money and energy you are losing and also, none of us know for sure how long these incredible incentives will be available to us. Since there are great finance options as well, this is the best time in history to act in our own best interest, as well as that of our finite resources.

Q: What sets Bend Heating apart from other well known heating companies?

A: Bend Heating has served all Central Oregon communities since 1953. That’s 57 years, longer than any other company. We are required to be certified by federal, state and local agencies. We participate in rigorous ongoing training that requires us to perform many different tests to certify the installation is correct and the paperwork is in order for the rebates and tax credits to go through. Turn to the experts!

Q: How can people contact you for more information?

A: You can contact me at 382-1231 or email me at randall@bendheating.com and I’m happy to provide an estimate of costs and savings. You can also visit our website at www.bendheating.com.

Man of many hats to read from his written work

OREGON’S HERITAGE

History lives in Aurora, Champoeg and the French Prairie

By John Gottberg Anderson For The Bulletin

AURORA —

G

rowing up in Oregon, I didn’t have a lot of awareness of the state’s early American history.

Between the establishment of Fort Astoria in 1811 and the granting of statehood by Congress in 1859, two full generations were missing from my historical knowledge. I knew about the Hudson’s Bay Co., founding father John McLoughlin and the arrival of travelers on the Oregon Trail. But the dayto-day lives of Oregon’s NORTHWEST first white TR AVE L settlers were lost to me.

Next week: Then I Canada’s discovered several South Okanagan pieces of the past in an unlikely place — a lush farming area nestled in an otherwise heavily urbanized area, midway between Portland and Salem, close to the Willamette River.

Local historians say the Calapooya Indians occupied this land, today called the French Prairie, for thousands of years before the arrival of Europeans. The native people willingly welcomed French Canadian fur trappers when they retired from government contracts to settle into a farming lifestyle with their Indian wives.

Their hub, a hamlet called St. Paul, was the second white community (after Astoria) in what would become Oregon.

At the edge of the French Prairie, the trading community of Champoeg (pronounced “sham-POO-ey”) also grew on the south bank of the Willamette.

It became a center for white settlers to meet and discuss issues of importance.

Although by the 1840s they barely numbered in the hundreds, they voted in 1843 to establish a provisional government where previously there had been none.

And thus was Oregon born.

Publisher and poet Derrick Brown will offer two live performances of his written work when he visits Bend on Wednesday during his “Brown Goes Blue Living Room Tour.”

There’ll be more chairs and stools involved than couches; the events will take place at 7 p.m. at PoetHouse Submitted photo Art and 9 p.m.

Author, poet at Silver Moon and publisher Brewing & Derrick Brown, Taproom (see a former para“If you go” on trooper with the Page C7).

82nd Airborne, Brown has will bring his worn many talents to Bend hats, including on Wednesday. pa r at ro oper, magician and weather man.

“The weatherman job was actually really easy, until the teleprompter went out,” he said in an e-mail interview with The Bulletin.

A former gondolier as well, he even offers poetry cruise packages in Long Beach, Calif., where he lives.

Not that he’s home often. Taking a cue from his own musical career — he was front man for The John Wilkes Kissing Booth and is currently half of the indierock duo Night Reports — Brown prefers to perform for indie-rock audiences.

TOP: The Manson Barn, built in 1862, may be the oldest in Oregon, according to Champoeg State Heritage Area officials. It stands near the park’s visitor center, opposite a “kitchen garden” planted to resemble a plot in the 1860s.

Minister must inform families of funeral fee

TV picks: pets, art, rockers and mystery

By Chuck Barney Contra Costa Times

Dear Abby: I am an ordained minister and a senior citizen. At the present time I do not have a position with a church. I rely on part-time work officiating at funerals and weddings and earn a very modest living.

I work hard to make each funeral service meaningful. It often involves meeting with family members to hear stories about their loved one, and sometimes I must drive many miles to and from the church where the funeral is held. I always receive compliments from the families afterward, telling me how touched they were. Then they fail to pay me a single red cent!

Most of these people know I am essentially unemployed, yet they offer me nothing for all my work.

Abby, nobody goes into the ministry for the money, but clergy have to eat, fill their gas tanks and pay their bills just like everyone else. What can I do to make sure I am compensated?

Please don’t tell me to set a specific fee, because I’d be glad to accept any offering they can afford. Besides, it seems tacky for a member of the clergy to ask for a fee upfront. It would be different if I was still on staff at a church and receiving a salary, but such is not the case.

— Thorny Issue in Florida Dear Thorny Issue: Please reconsider your policy about setting a fee for your services.

Grieving families often forget anything beyond their grief. It is all right to say when you are called, “Please understand that I cannot do this for free. Would ‘X’ amount be fair?” That way your compensation can be negotiated.

And if they forget, send a gentle reminder. Justice and charity walk hand in hand.

Dear Abby: When I’m finished with my silverware, plate, drinking glass, etc., I place

DEAR ABBY Don’t miss them directly in the dishwasher.

I do not understand why someone would put these items in the sink when the dishwasher is right there.

What is the proper etiquette for family? What about friends and company?

— Michael in New York Dear Michael: People place their used eating utensils in the sink because some hosts are particular about how dishes and silverware are placed in the dishwasher. Some people prefer to wash their “good” china, glassware and silverware by hand.

Please do not take offense. Tell friends and family what you prefer, and I’m sure they’ll gladly comply.

Dear Abby: You often advise readers to consult a counselor or psychologist. We live in a small town with limited resources.

There are a couple of good-sized cities within a reasonable distance. How do I know a practitioner is qualified to meet our needs?

— Needs Guidance in New Mexico Dear Needs Guidance: The first thing to do is to find out if the person is licensed to practice in your state. You should also ask your health care provider if he or she knows of any good therapists. After that it’s up to you to interview the candidates to make sure that you feel comfortable enough to confide your problems, because not everyone — regardless of how qualified he or she may be — may be a good “fit.”

“LUCKY” — “Oh, if I could only hit the lottery, all my problems would be solved.” So many of us have had that dream. But now this entertaining and eyeopening documentary comes along to demonstrate that a major windfall doesn’t always change lives for the better. Director Jeffrey Blitz crisscrossed the country to track down various lottery winners and examine the impact sudden fortune had on them. The lesson? Be careful what you wish for. 9 p.m. Monday, HBO.

Other bets TONIGHT: “America Now: Children of the Harvest” is a special yearlong investigation by “Dateline: NBC” that takes viewers into the lives of migrant farm workers and examines the problem of illegal underage child labor. 7 p.m., NBC. TONIGHT: Super sleuth Hercule Poirot (David Suchet) is still on the case for “Masterpiece Mystery!” Now he’s dealing with a demon-haunted heiress who is convinced she committed murder. But Poirot thinks she’s innocent. 9 p.m., PBS. MONDAY: “Ghost Whisperer” may be no more, but Jennifer Love Hewitt is still getting work. In the TV film “The Client List,” she plays a mother who secretly turns to prostitution to support her family.

The lives of migrant farm workers are examined in Dateline: NBC’s special “America Now: Children of the Harvest.”

SATURDAY: The ages-old grudge match between cat people and dog people heats up in “Dogs vs. Cats,” a special that tries to settle the matter by matching up precious pets in a series of challenges. We say let the fur fly. 8 p.m., Animal Planet.

Alex arrived at the shelter as a stray and was sadly never reclaimed. He is microchipped and from doing research on his past it sounds like this poor guy has not had a very stable life. For one reason or another Alex has been continually rehomed. This is very difficult for any dog, but especially a Shiba Inu who bond very strongly with usually one member of the family. Alex is about 10 years old and used to being an indoor dog. He is housebroken and loves being with his family. Alex is good with cats but cannot be adopted to a home with other dogs. Since Alex has had such an inconsistent life as of late, he may take a while to adjust and bond in his new home.

Tonight’s episode has her hoping to promote women’s health by undergoing a public Pap smear. 10 p.m., Bravo.

WEDNESDAY: “Merle Haggard: Learning to Live with Myself” is a compelling new edition of “American Masters.”

It’s a candid look at the country music icon that reveals how his juvenile delinquency and incarcerations still inform his creativity. 10 p.m., PBS. WEDNESDAY: Break out the crayons. It’s a night of child’s play on the addictive new series “Work of Art: The Next Great Artist” as the contestants are challenged to create pieces using only kid-friendly materials. 10 p.m., Bravo.

C4 Sunday, July 18, 2010 • THE BULLETIN

C OV ER S T ORY

Heritage Continued from C1 By the early 1850s, thousands of settlers had found their way west. Some were members of religious orders who wanted to practice their lifestyle with no outside interference. Prominent at the edge of the French Prairie was the Aurora Colony, a communal group of German Protestant heritage. Even as early Oregon was encouraging capitalism and self-government, these several hundred people adopted a utopian philosophy that preceded Marxism.

The ensuing years have taken their toll, but there’s still plenty for the history buff to explore.

The Aurora Colony persevered from 1856 to 1883; today, it is a national historic district. Champoeg was largely abandoned after a severe flood in 1861, but original buildings remain in the Champoeg State Heritage Area.

The French Prairie village of St. Paul persists as a community rich in Roman Catholic heritage.

To explore the area, I stayed two nights in the heart of the prairie, at an old farmhouse converted to a bed-and-breakfast inn. Built in 1865, the Feller House is surrounded by fields of hops and adjoined by an extensive community vegetable garden. It was a perfect place to recapture the flavor of another era.

The French Prairie The first white settlers arrived in the French Prairie in 1828, according to the St. Paul Mission Historical Society, and found the Willamette River bottomlands ready-made for agriculture. That was a result of the centuries-old tradition by the native peoples to regularly burn the grassland to maintain it as a range for game. Soil in the prehistoric lake bed was rich and deep, lending itself to easy plowing. Wheat was the preferred crop, as it could be shipped downriver or ground into flour locally. Over the years, farming became more diversified to include fruits, vegetables, livestock and even hops for brewing beer.

The French era lasted only about two decades, but historical accounts suggest it was a lively 20 years. Isolated in a prairie surrounded by dense forest, with only the river as a link to the outside world, the French-speaking settlers lived a life they remembered from their Canadian youth. Fiddles provided music for singing and dancing, races between Indian ponies were always worth gambling upon, and a big pot of stew could often be found simmering on the hearth.

The church was the center of social life. A crude log chapel, built beside the river in 1836, helped to attract priests from Quebec. By 1846, St. Paul had a permanent parish church, its 2foot-thick walls built of 300,000 bricks fired at the site. It remains standing today, the oldest brick building in the Pacific Northwest; a replica of the original log chapel stands next door.

Successive waves of English-speaking immigrants overwhelmed the Francophiles by about 1850, but even today St. Paul remains a solidly Roman Catholic community. Yet the tiny community is now better known for its Fourth of July rodeo than for its unique heritage. The rodeo arena is far and away the largest structure in town: 10,000 reserved seats are a lot in a community of 350 people. First held in 1935, the St. Paul Rodeo has been acclaimed by the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association as one of the finest smalltown rodeos in the country.

Like something from the set of the movie “Leatherheads,” old football gear awaits purchase at the Aurora Mills Architectural Salvage store in Aurora. Other items in the store have included century-old farm equipment and hand-painted carousel horses.

Then disaster struck. A massive flood inundated the town in 1861, taking no lives but washing away nearly all of its buildings.

Although the community was relocated to higher ground, its population never again reached more than a few dozen, and a second flood in 1890 guaranteed its permanent demise.

Still, Champoeg was not forgotten. As early as 1901, a monument was erected on the site of the 1843 government vote. In 1912, the state of Oregon declared Champoeg a parkland preserve.

An official state park since 1943, it is well worth a visit.

A house built in 1862 by Donald Manson burned down in 1931, but the park’s visitor center was later erected in its place ... next to the original Manson barn, which park officials speculate may be the oldest in the state. The visitor

center has excellent exhibits on early Oregon history. Outside, a “kitchen garden” re-creates the vegetable and herb garden that likely nurtured Manson and his family in the 1860s. The visitor center also hosts such Saturday afternoon living-history events as Grain Harvest Day (Aug. 14) and Farmstead Day (Sept. 4).

Elsewhere in the park are the Robert Newell House Museum, built in 1852 and restored by the Daughters of the American Revolution, and the Pioneer Mothers Cabin Museum, a hand-hewn log cabin built by the DAR above the riverside in 1931. A Pioneer Memorial Pavilion was raised in 1918 next to the provisional government monument. Miles of hiking and bicycling trails lead past a 79-site campground, with cabins and yurts, on the east side of the park.

The Historic Butteville Store is a 2-mile hike or 3½-mile drive from the park entrance. Back in 1863, when this store was built, steamboats called at Butteville on a regular basis. Today, the store preserves an old-time atmosphere in its historic photos, handcrafted gifts and homebaked pies; Americana-style live music is presented with a dinner barbecue every Saturday night. According to Champoeg park officials, it is the oldest continuously operating store in Oregon.

The Aurora Colony Butteville’s address places it in the Aurora postal district. In fact, Aurora’s town center is a good 10 miles away. But it’s definitely worth the short trek for two reasons.

First, the entire core of Aurora (population about 900) is a national historic district with a large concentration of antique shops.

Champoeg State Heritage Area There were no cowboys in Oregon in 1841, when settlers initially gathered (two full years before the first major Oregon Trail migration) to discuss “the wolf problem.” After setting bounties on wild animals that preyed upon their domestic stock, they turned their political sights upon questions of civil security.

This led to a call for self-government. More than 100 settlers met in Champoeg in spring 1843 to discuss the issue. On May 2, 1843, by a vote of 52 to 50 (French speakers generally opposed the declaration), they approved the first government in what would later become the state of Oregon.

Although the seat of government was officially moved to Oregon City in 1844 — and remained there when the Oregon Territory was established by the federal government in 1848 — Champoeg continued to prosper.

As a river port, it was a regular stop for steamboats and stagecoaches; by the end of the 1850s, it had 60 buildings, including a huge granary, and a citizenry of about 200.

LODGING Photos by Barb Gonzalez / For The Bulletin

Built in 1865 in the heart of the French Prairie, the Feller House is now a friendly bed-and-breakfast inn. It is about six miles from Aurora but fewer than five miles from Champoeg.

From previous page Second, it’s the home of the Old Aurora Colony Museum, which relates a story unique in the state and, indeed, in the American West.

As explained by Patrick Harris, curator of the Aurora museum, the town’s “utopian” colony was established by a Prussian tailor and self-taught physician named Wilhelm Keil. A charismatic preacher, Keil drew scores of German-speaking immigrants to his creed, of biblical origin and later a Marxist axiom: “From each according to his ability, to each according to his need.” By 1845, Keil had established a communal settlement in Bethel, Mo., northwest of St. Louis. In 1853, he sent a scouting party across the Oregon Trail to find a “second Eden.”

Keil and a handful of disciples landed in Oregon in 1856. The leader purchased a land claim with a working sawmill and grist mill, and named it “Aurora” after his daughter. Starting in 1863, with a new migration of 250 colonists from Missouri, the village grew rapidly; it had a church, a school, a general store and a hotel, along with many houses.

By 1875, said Harris, the Aurora Colony owned 18,000 acres and was a leading orchard center. Its craftspeople manufactured shoes, clothing, furniture, kitchen wares and other items that were sold throughout the Northwest. Aurora became a popular rail stop on the Portland-to-San Francisco line, and its German-style brass band was regionally renowned.

But after Keil’s death in 1877, the community quickly dissolved. Young Aurorans sought social interaction outside of their own religious order, and moreover wanted the fruits of their labors in their own hands rather than shared. By 1883, all of the colony’s businesses and industries were in private hands.

In 1974, nearly 100 years later, the town was protected on the

National Register of Historic Places. A strict architectural code, adopted in 1983, forbade any external changes on its 19thcentury buildings.

Harris led me through the four buildings that comprise the Old Aurora Colony Museum. The main building, constructed as a communal ox barn, later became a residence, a truck garage and a mercantile store. It now exhibits period artifacts and has a small theater area with a film on colony history. Four other buildings surround a central courtyard that still hosts special events.

The hewn-log George Steinbach Cabin, built in 1876, was furnished with simple Shaker-like chairs and tables. The adjoining Tie Shed contained remnants of blacksmith, wheelwright, tinsmith and carpenter crafts. The Wash House was used not only for laundry, Harris said, but also for cooking during the warmer summer months.

In the 1865 George Kraus House, once owned by a shoemaker, the curator demonstrated use of an original wool handloom.

Aurora Colony furnishings remain throughout the house, which was the setting for a trilogy of his-

torical novels by Central Oregon author Jane Kirkpatrick. According to Harris, fans of Kirkpatrick’s books like to imagine Emma Wagner, heroine of “A Clearing in the Wild” and its sequels, living in the home as if it were her own.

Antique village For blocks around the Aurora museum, private homes and businesses have endured from colony days. A substantial number have, appropriately, been converted to antique stores.

Considered the most important of the survivors is the General Merchandise Store, built in 1871 to serve outsiders purchasing goods from the colonists. (The in-colony store operated on a purely non-cash basis.) It is now a store known as The Antique Colony.

A couple of hours of browsing this little community’s 17 antique stores offered me bargains such as these: • From the Aurora Depot (the former train station, built in 1870): a full rail porter’s uniform, including the hat ($150).

• From Home Again Antiques: a ceramic butter churn ($110).

Catering hall a zesty ethnic stew pot

By Annie Gowen

Abdul Romel Miah and Sarah Jafrul prepare for their Bangladeshi wedding reception at Martin’s Crosswinds in Greenbelt, Md.

The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — Toward the end of her brother’s Persian wedding reception at a suburban catering hall, Mitra Elyassi-Castro looked up to see an unexpected sight on the dance floor: four women in elaborate West African tribal costumes. The gate-crashers were quickly welcomed by the delighted Iranian guests, who encircled them, clapping and dancing to the festive Bandari music pouring out of the sound system.

Turns out the women were guests at a wedding reception next door, but “they said they liked our music better,” Elyassi-Castro, 36, said with a little laugh.

Located in a sterile office park near the Beltway, Martin’s Crosswinds could be anywhere, or nowhere. On hot summer weekends, the marble-trimmed and faux Baroque hall hosts as many as a dozen weddings, receptions and other events — celebrations that have grown as diverse as the region. Staff members now must go beyond a wedding’s typical perils — anxious brides, inebriated guests, interfering mothers-in-law — to juggle complex religious traditions and tastes for a burgeon-

ing ethnic clientele.

“We call this place the United Nations for weddings,” said Ben Sarfarazi, Martin’s affable major-domo, who himself hails from Iran. He rarely gets weekends off and sometimes works late into the night, describing his workplace as a “lifestyle” rather than a job.

On one recent weekend alone, events included wedding receptions for Elyassi-Castro’s brother — whose father had been a bodyguard for the deposed shah — a Haitian bride marrying a groom from Sierra Leone and a couple from Bangladesh, complete with the groom’s arrival on a white horse.

There was love, drama, drunkenness and heartbreak — even a wedding that wasn’t.

Brown Continued from C1 “When I was in a band, we did things none of the poets were doing, we made press kits, stickers, T-shirts, all things to stay alive while touring,” he explained. “It stuck with me that this would be a better way to tour (for books) than hitting a bunch of Barnes & Nobles for my publisher and never seeing a dime, so I became the publisher and our tour philosophy was born. The afterbirth was the publishing company.”

Yet another hat: Brown is president of the small press Write Bloody, publishing and promoting “4-12 tour savvy authors per year,” according to its website (www.writebloody.com).

“I took the DIY philosophies of an indie rock band and applied it to the publishing world,” said Brown. He takes breaks from touring to work on the publishing company.

Although it’s “fun and wild the first time” one tours, it can become a grind, he says. “The eighth time, you party a little, but you’ve really got to sell books to stay alive, and that is the bottom line. Your reading and writing of your own stuff has to be good to stay alive. That’s scary.”

Indie-rock venues proved to be the right realm for his edgy, funny material, though. He’s toured and performed with The Decemberists, Cold War Kids and comic David Cross, to name but a few.

“Strange rock usually breeds an audience that likes lyrics, so the door is open for poetry. Good poetry. That sing-songy stuff or

Tears were shed. Glasses raised. Life unfolded, one ceremony at a time.

Of the 200 weddings and receptions Martin’s hosts annually, about a quarter are rooted in other cultures, Sarfarazi said.

An African groom who wants to arrive by helicopter? No problem. An Arab family that wants separate receptions for male and female guests? Done.

“We try to follow their culture, follow their procedures, just take care of them,” said Sarfarazi, who deployed about 120 staffers to handle the weekend’s celebrations.

Explosions,” he writes, “I don’t know who started the rumor, but I was about to pay for it with the cash of my face.” It’s the tale of his being beat up by a fourthgrader when he was in the fifth grade. It was the first fistfight as a boy, when he was “skinnier than a dead model.”

Though he’s developed a cult following for live performances in which sound effects and lowkey music add to the ambience, Brown says he’s primarily a “page poet.” His books include “Born in the Year of the Butterfly Knife,” “I Love You is Back” and “Scandalabra.”

Since his primary audience at larger indie-rock shows presumably consists of fairly smart, hip people, we wondered how he might fare were he to warm up the crowd for a more mainstream act, bringing poetry to, say, the fans of the Jonas Brothers or Miley Cyrus.

“I haven’t opened for a band that is mainstream, like the Black Eyed Peas, because at their concerts all you want to do is kick off your Crocs, pound a few Michelob Lights, and sing along to the one song you know.

I also haven’t opened for them since they flat out don’t like me,” he responded.

However, he has at least one pop icon who’s a fan.

“One pop star, Hilary Duff, has come to shows, and she was cute and intelligent afterwards backstage,” he said. “It was a great lesson for not prejudging for me.”

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHH The specialness of an offer might surprise you. You could be secretly delighted by news, but you don’t want to spill the beans. News from a distant friend could be important. Tonight: Try a new type of cuisine.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHH An even, mellow pace makes a difference. You might not be as sure of yourself with a key friendship or relationship as you would like to be. Ask yourself why. Is it the result of this person’s unpredictability? Tonight: Mellow out. Think “Monday.”

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHHH Creativity marks your actions, plans and decisions.

A child or loved one acts in an unpredictable manner. A must appearance could block plans to some extent, but not completely.

A parent is unpredictable. Tonight: Act as if there is no tomorrow.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH In the a.m., you feel as if you can grasp a dream. Yet by the afternoon, you have hunkered down and decided to stay close to home or visit family. The unexpected occurs, especially when dealing with distant interests, entertainment and perhaps a new experience. You are being asked to flex. Tonight: Play with ideas rather than act on them.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Stick to your budget.

Don’t accept any ideas or make any purchases that might break your budget. Understanding comes when you open up a conversation with a relative or a neighbor. You gain insight into a partnership. Tonight: As you like.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Get an early start if possible, especially if plans revolve around a child or new friend. You could go overboard in the afternoon, when you feel more relaxed about a situation. Don’t say “yes” or “no” to an expenditure right now. Get more information. Tonight: Enjoy yourself.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Midday, you feel revived.

As the Moon slides into your sign, your sense of empowerment might amaze you. Whether

playing racquetball or just hanging out with friends, events prove to be fun and exciting.

Tonight: Whatever feels right.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Use the morning for key interactions. A sense of wanting some downtime or time alone comes up later in the day. A child or loved one could act in a most unanticipated manner. Relax and worry less. Be careful with people you meet today. Tonight: Get a good night’s sleep.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Impressions change quickly. Though you are with friends, you discover there are several people you don’t know.

Make it a point to visit and get to know a new person or two.

You could be surprised by the impact one person has on your life. Tonight: Not alone, please.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH Your ability to move past an issue draws many people. You not only accept responsibility for your share, but you also are willing to take a leap of faith. Others admire your strong sense of values.

Tonight: A must appearance.

Others are counting on you.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH If you can, take off for the day and enjoy yourself in the company of others. Your vision of what is possible might delight many people, if you share those thoughts. Detached, relaxed and out of your regular environment, you see a situation in a new light.

Tonight: Where there is music. © 2010 by King Features Syndicate

Tragedy and comedy, starring ‘Pac-Man’ Theater festival reimagines games as stage plays

By Seth Schiesel New York Times News Service

What if the gorilla in “Donkey Kong” is really an abusive, down-on-his-luck meathead straight out of a Tennessee Williams script who keeps his handicapped blond paramour (the princess) captive in their top-floor apartment, periodically thrashing the Italian building superintendent (Mario), who attempts to climb the stairs to alleviate the woman’s suffering?

What if “Pac-Man” is really a gluttonous German burgher out to gorge himself while dodging the ghosts of those he has so callously wronged, a la Dickens?

What if the pilots in “Asteroids” are merely profane technicians existentially trapped within a corporation that knows nothing more than to send them into the void to shoot rocks, until they become smaller rocks and smaller rocks, until they become nothing?

In other words, what if the characters and stories of classic video games were reimagined and reinterpreted as live theater in front of you?

Even as someone who writes about video games for a living, I had not imagined such a thing possible until attending “Theater of the Arcade,” the most provocative and intriguing of four shows I recently saw as part of the Game Play festival at the Brick Theater in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.

Theater fusion

sat at a table covered in laptops and game consoles (a sixth student was up in the projector booth); the projector displayed images from various games onto a large screen in front of the audience.

Suddenly, Daedalus and Icarus were standing by the water (in the game “World of Warcraft”) before Icarus flew too high and fell to his death (in “Grand Theft Auto IV”). There was Orpheus traversing Hades (in the “Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time”) before tragically losing Eurydice a second time as a result of his impatience (in “Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2”). And then, most powerfully, there were Niobe’s 14 children being slaughtered by the gods as punishment for her arrogance

(in “Halo 3”) before she herself turned to stone.

Kim’s charges even performed the tale of Apollo and Daphne in one of the most crowded areas in “World of Warcraft,” the dwarf city of Ironforge, attracting dozens of live online players from around the country to participate in the story being projected in a theater in Brooklyn.

Later on Saturday, after “Grand Theft Ovid,” the guitarists Evan Drummond and David Hindman took the stage for “Modal Kombat,” an exhibition of technology they have developed that allows real classical guitars to control the action in games like “Mortal Kombat,” a version of “Pong” and “Mario Kart.”

As far as I’m concerned, the Game Play concept, and in particular “Grand Theft Ovid” and “Theater of the Arcade,” easily could be taken on the road, especially in conjunction with a game conference like DICE (for

Design, Innovate, Communicate, Entertain) in Las Vegas or the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco. I hope to see the Brick Theater’s Game Play at one of those events in the coming years.

Something for everyone

old games, is also not well-suited for young children, though the actor Fred Backus deserves praise for his performance as the deliciously rapacious “PacMan.” Several of the vignettes include significant profanity, and the portrayal of the brothers Luigi and Mario as stoners whacked out on psychedelic mushrooms in the middle of the desert as they deal with visions of huge turtles and man-eating plants is hilarious but not especially kid-friendly.

Then there is “Grand Theft Ovid,” an impressive feat of engineering, coordination and storytelling in which the performers are children themselves.

Eddie Kim, 32, is an artist who teaches theater at the Pierrepont School in Westport, Conn. During the school term his students learn classical theater. (This year they performed “Romeo and Juliet.”) This summer, however, some of them are portraying classic tales of Greek mythology through live performances and existing commercial games.

Running through July 25, Game Play is the most ambitious effort I know of to fuse the techniques and live presentation of theater with the themes, structures and technology of interactive electronic entertainment, also known as video games.

Now in its second year, Game Play reflects the fact that people who grew up with video games populate every walk of life and part of culture in this country, including the theater.

“We would have these parties in junior high school and all the guys would be playing ‘Street Fighter’ and most of the girls would be off doing their own thing, but I was pretty good at ‘Street Fighter’ and definitely beat a lot of the guys,” said Gyda Arber, 30, the festival’s executive producer. Arber, who also directed “Theater of the Arcade” (written by Jeff Lewonczyk), said that she was halfway through “Final Fantasy XIII” on the PlayStation 3 and that she and her boyfriend recently played through Sony’s noir thriller “Heavy Rain” not once but twice as they explored that game’s impressive narrative depth.

“For the Brick, we tend to get a lot of the same audience all the time, big theater geeks,” said Arber, who is also a writer and actress. “But with the Game Play festival we find all these people come to the shows who are not big theater people but who are gamers or who are just interested in games and interactive technology. For us it’s really great to be able to reach out to a whole new audience.”

Bend walks off with victory

Bend rider fares well at national championships GRANBY, Colo. — Two Bend riders finished in the top four Saturday in the elite men’s cross-country race at the U.S. Mountain Bike National Championships.

Todd Wells, of Durango, Colo., won the race in 1 hour, 50 minutes, 35 seconds.

Bend’s Ryan Trebon placed third, 2:25 behind Wells, and Adam Craig, also of Bend, finished fourth, 4:14 behind the winner.

According to www.cyclingnews.com, Wells rode powerfully to a solo win for his first career cross-country national title. He edged out runner-up Jeremy Horgan-Kobelski, of Boulder, Colo., by 1:29.

Trebon typically focuses on cyclocross, but he is also a former national champion in mountain biking.

Craig, also a former national champion, was a 2008 Olympian in mountain biking.

Georgia Gould, of Fort Collins, Colo., won the elite women’s cross-country national title on Saturday.

The U.S. Mountain Bike Nationals are being staged for the second year in a row at Sol Vista Bike Park, elevation 8,200 feet. Throughout the weekend, more than 1,000 racers are competing for 70 stars-and-stripes (national championship) jerseys in cross country, short track, downhill and super D. The nationals continue today with short track, downhill and super D races.

TOUR DE F R A N C E AT A GLANCE

The peloton passes a field of sunflowers on Saturday.

REVEL, France — A brief look at Saturday’s 13th stage of the Tour de France: Stage: The 13th stage took riders on a 121.8-mile course from Rodez to Revel, over five low-level climbs.

Winner: Alexandre Vinokourov of Kazakhstan in a solo breakaway. He clocked 4 hours, 26 minutes, 26 seconds. Mark Cavendish of Britain was second, Alessandro Petacchi of Italy was third — 13 seconds behind along with the main pack.

Yellow Jersey: Andy Schleck of Luxembourg kept the yellow jersey. He holds a 31-second lead over defending champion Alberto Contador. Spanish rider Samuel Sanchez is 2:45 back in third.

Horner watch: Bend’s Chris Horner, competing for Team RadioShack, finished in 22nd place on Saturday.

He is currently in 24th place overall.

Next stage: The 114.65mile ride from Revel to the ski station of Ax-3 Domaines takes riders up two extreme climbs, first the Port de Pailheres — one of the toughest ascents in cycling — and an uphill finish. It’s the first of four punishing mountain stages in the Pyrenees.

said Hill, 27. “I usually go to bigger events and get my butt kicked a little bit.”

More than 150 men and 90 women competed in Saturday’s Olympic-distance tri.

Hill said he hopes to make it as a professional triathlete. So far this season, he said, he has traveled to and competed in numerous triathlons around the Northwest, including the Pacific Crest Weekend Sports Festival last month in Sunriver, where he took second overall in the longcourse triathlon (a half-Ironman distance including a 1.2-mile swim, 56.3-mile bike and 13.1-mile run).

“It’s just a battle with yourself,” said Hill at the toasty-hot finish area on the footbridge in the Old Mill District where hordes of spectators gathered to watch and encourage the racers. “A lot of people talk about the great atmosphere and all the people and how they are so happy. But I’m fighting myself the whole time. And it feels good if you can come out on top.”

GOLF: BRITISH OPEN

A score of 121 at Mid-Am? A scorecard error and a penalty of 36 strokes at the Oregon Mid-Amateur at Brasada Ranch is a lesson learned for one golfer

M

att Clemo did not enter last weekend’s Oregon Mid-Amateur Championship expecting to see his name at the bottom of the leaderboard.

But after the 36-hole golf tournament at the Club at Brasada Ranch in Powell Butte, there it was anyway, next to his abysmal score: 121-83—204. That tallies to 60 over par.

(Interestingly, the Oregon Golf Association itself made a math mistake and originally counted 131 for Clemo’s first round.)

Clemo finished dead last out of 135 golfers and was an amazing 21 strokes behind his nearest competitor.

That stinks. But is Clemo really that bad?

Not a chance.

The 36-year-old Clemo, a 5 handicap, signed and turned in a scorecard with an incorrect score.

ZACK HALL

And that turned out to cost him 36 strokes — on just one hole.

Ouch.

“It was really unfortunate,” Clemo said by phone this week from his hometown of Tigard.

“Luckily I didn’t shoot better that day, or I would have been REALLY upset.”

Most competitive golfers know that when they turn in a scorecard with a hole score LOWER than the actual score, he or she is disqualified from the tournament. A lesser-known rule in golf states that if a player turns in a scorecard with a score too high there is no penalty, except that the higher score counts.

So how did it happen to Clemo? Follow along.

In OGA events, as with most formal golf tournaments, a golfer’s score is kept by one of his playing partners.

Matt Clemo, shown above at left, signed for a score of 121 at the Oregon Mid-Amateur because a “40” was written on his card under the ninth hole. The scorecard is shown above.

ST. ANDREWS, Scotland — The last test for Louis Oosthuizen was his second shot to the 17th green at St. Andrews, where the pin was planted perilously behind the Road Hole bunker.

He safely sent his 5-iron through the green and onto the 18th tee, where it stopped about six feet away from

where Paul Casey was about to hit. Lee Westwood walked over to the ball and acted as though he was going to smash it back at Oosthuizen.

Even that might not have stopped him Saturday in the British Open.

Oosthuizen opened with a nervous bogey, then settled down quickly on another windswept afternoon for a 3-under 69 that gave him a four-shot lead over Casey and a chance to become the first player in 46 years to win his first major at the home of golf.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL

TOUR DE FRANCE Andy Schleck, of Luxembourg, gestures during the 13th stage of the Tour de France over 196 kilometers (121.8 miles) with the start in Rodez and the finish in Revel, France, Saturday.

Spielman, Robinson, and Brown among Hall inductees

By Tom Coyne The Associated Press

SOUTH BEND, Ind. — Tim Brown struck the Heisman Trophy pose on stage at the urging of a fan after putting on his new College Football Hall of Fame blazer, then moments later, Steve McMichael playfully rushed past emcee Mark May like he was about to chase down a quarterback.

Both drew appreciative cheers from the crowd gathered for a rally to see the 24 former players and coaches who were being enshrined Saturday. The biggest cheer, though, was for Chris Spielman, with nearly 100 people in the crowd wearing his No. 36 Ohio State shirt.

“This is how we do it at Ohio State,” Spielman said to another loud cheer.

Even former Southern California coach John Robinson drew applause despite being in the backyard of rival Notre Dame.

“It’s nice to be in South Bend and not get booed,” Robinson told the crowd.

Among the others being honored were former Miami quarterback Gino Torretta, who won the Heisman in 1992; Penn State running back Curt Warner; West Virginia quarterback Major Harris; and Dick MacPherson, who coached at UMass and Syracuse.

Those being honored found out in April 2009 they were going into the hall and were inducted into it during a ceremony in New York last December. The event in South Bend was the final step in the process. Many called the experience humbling.

“To be part of the fabric of college football forever is just awesome,” Torretta said.

The college greats also took part in a parade and an autograph session Saturday and a dinner where they were formally enshrined.

Warner drew laughs during a question-and-answer session after the dinner when he talked about how he wasn’t sure Joe Paterno even liked him when he was playing, doing a highpitched imitation of the Penn State coach.

“Get off the field. Get off the field. What are you doing?” Warner mimicked.

He and several others talked about how they wouldn’t have made it to the hall without the help of other teammates and coaches.

“We all pulled together and had a common goal,” Warner said.

Most of the players and coaches said the best part of the weekend was hanging around and talking football with the others being honored.

“One of the things I miss most about being in the game is being in the locker room. When you come to things like this you get it back,” said McMichael, who played at Texas 1976-79. “I don’t care what team a guy played on, I don’t care what year he played in, the locker room has always been the same: fun, sarcastic humor. You’re messing with your buddies. The brotherhood of football.”

Robinson said when he thinks about his coaching career he thinks more about the people than the games.

“The wins and losses are still there, but the best memories are about the people,” he said.

MacPherson said he found it hard to believe he was going into the hall with Robinson and joining all the other coaching greats.

“You don’t even think about it until it happens. It’s overwhelming,” he said.

Others being enshrined were: New Mexico State halfback Pervis Atkins; Maryland Eastern Shore halfback Emerson Boozer; Marshall wide receiver Troy Brown; Arizona defensive back Chuck Cecil; Auburn fullback Ed Dyas; BYU tight end Gordon Hudson; Cal Lutheran linebacker Brian Kelley; Harvard center William Lewis; Alabama linebacker Woodrow Lowe; Stanford receiver Ken Margerum; UMass tight end Milt Morin; Iowa linebacker Larry Station; Georgia Tech defensive end Pat Swilling; Nebraska defensive end Grant Wistrom; Willie Jeffries, who coached at Howard, Wichita State and South Carolina State; and Ted Kessinger, who coached at Bethany.

Wilson takes first pole at Toronto street circuit The Associated Press TORONTO — Justin Wilson won his first IndyCar Series pole to end Team Penske’s streak at eight Saturday in the Honda Indy Toronto, turning a series trackrecord lap of 104.827 mph on the 11-turn, 1.755-mile street circuit.

Wilson, the winner from the pole in the 2006 Champ Car race at the tight and bumpy Exhibition Place track, gave owner Dreyer & Reinbold Racing its first IndyCar pole since Sarah Fisher led the field at Kentucky Speedway in 2002.

“We’ve had a couple of tough races, so to come back and get the pole here is just fantastic,” Wilson said. “Everyone at Dreyer & Reinbold has worked so hard.

“It’s a good weekend so far.

We have to keep it up. We’ll keep pushing for the race. It’s easy in this stage to sit back and relax, but we have a lot of work to do.”

Edwards wins in a wild finish

Former banned cyclist wins 13th stage of Tour

By Jamey Keaten The Associated Press

REVEL, France — Alexandre Vinokourov did his time for doping. Now, he’s back to basking in Tour de France glory again.

The 36-year-old from Kazakhstan capped his return to cycling’s main event by winning the 13th stage on Saturday with a solo breakaway that said more about savvy and opportunistic cycling than leg power.

It was a far cry from the 2007 Tour, when Vinokourov was kicked out and instantly became an emblem of doping shame after testing positive for a banned blood transfusion.

Police raided his Astana team’s hotel and the squad quit the race. Tour organizers lost the gamble they made by giving Astana a wild card to race a year after it was forced out in another doping scandal.

Vinokourov has since said he doesn’t want to dwell on the past. He wants to regain the trust of fans and prove that he can win with hard work alone.

“I showed I worked hard in these two years,” he said Saturday. It was his fourth career Tour stage victory. It would have been No. 6 — but his two stage wins in the 2007 Tour were nullified after his disqualification.

Cycling’s past with doping lingers at this Tour, especially after recent allegations by Floyd Landis that the use of banned substances was common on the U.S. Postal team when he rode with Lance Armstrong.

The New York Post reported Saturday that three-time Tour champion Greg LeMond has been served with a grand jury subpoena as part of a U.S. federal investigation of possible fraud and doping charges against Armstrong and his associates.

On Saturday, Vinokourov

Stage winner Alexandre Vinokourov applauds on the podium after the 13th stage of the Tour de France Saturday. looked back at the trailing pack and thrust his arms skyward at the end of the 121.8-mile course from Rodez to Revel over five low-level climbs and beat the onrushing pack by 13 seconds.

Andy Schleck of Luxembourg retained the yellow jersey, finishing in the pack alongside Vinokourov’s teammate Alberto Contador, who trails by 31 seconds. Samuel Sanchez of Spain is a distant third, 2:45 back.

A showdown between Contador and Schleck looms in the Pyrenees, where the pack heads today for the first of four stages — one of the toughest sequences of climbing the threeweek race has seen in recent years.

The 114.7-mile ride from Revel to the ski station of Ax3 Domaines will lead riders up two extreme climbs, first the Port de Pailheres — one of the toughest ascents in cycling — and an uphill finish.

Schleck was happy to be able to save up energy Saturday.

“It was a good day for my team,” said Schleck, the Saxo Bank leader. “We didn’t have to work. ... Today was calm — tomorrow is the battle. We’re going to have a nice stage tomorrow.”

Contador, after hugging Vinokourov at the finish, was still drinking up Astana’s victory on Saturday: “I am happier than if I had won.”

Vinokourov, who faced a grilling from reporters about doping after he won the Liege-Bastogne-Liege in Belgium in April, said being able to ride in the Tour this year was “already a big victory for me.”

On Friday, Vinokourov tried a breakaway attack on the steep final climb in Mende, but bared his teeth in desperation as he couldn’t stay ahead of two lighter, fleeter and younger riders who beat him by 4 seconds.

Seven-time champion Armstrong cruised in a bunch, finishing 4:35 back in 100th place — the fourth straight day that he’s lost time. The 38-year-old Texan says his title hopes are over: he’s 36th overall, 25:38 back.

After the pack had finished, Armstrong was shown on TV smiling and chatting with RadioShack teammate Yaroslav Popovych while leisurely riding under a canopy of trees.

Armstrong didn’t respond to questions from reporters before or after the stage. He has been plagued by crashes at this year’s Tour, coming down at least three times and getting delayed by at least two others.

The Associated Press MADISON, Ill. — Carl Edwards meant no harm to Brad Keselowski. He just wanted to take the checkered flag that he deserved.

Edwards prevailed in a wild final lap, nudging Keselowski out of control on the final straightaway to take the Nationwide Dodge Dealers 250 on Saturday night.

“The deal is he’ll eventually learn he can’t run into my car over and over and put me in bad situations,” Edwards said. “In every situation, there’s an aggressor and there’s someone who reacts.

“I was not the aggressor in this situation.”

Keselowski was on the inside and had appeared to take the lead before Edwards’ car drifted into him. Keselowski spun into the wall and was struck head-on by another car as he slid back toward the infield.

Edwards said Keselowski wouldn’t have been in position to win if he hadn’t bumped Edwards earlier on the final lap.

“The way it went, he bumped me and he finished wherever he finished and I still won the race,” Edwards said. “That’s the only way I could see the race turning out fair.”

Keselowski finally rolled across the line in 14th. He wasn’t hurt, just peeved.

“I’m sure he’ll say how sorry he is, or how cool he thinks he is or how great of a guy he is in his own mind,” said Keselowski, the Nationwide points leader. “But that’s not reality.”

Edwards, of Columbia, Mo., won for the third time at Gateway International Raceway, which he considers his home track. Reed Sorenson was second and 19year-old pole-sitter Trevor Bayne third.

Sorenson said he was just trying to avoid the mess.

“I couldn’t hardly see what happened,” Sorenson said. “The 60 (Edwards) obviously got into the right rear of the 22 (Keselowski). I just hoped I would beat the 60 to the line.”

Wilson saved a set of red-lined tires — the softer and less durable of the two Firestone models — for the 10-minute, six-car qualifying finale.

“That was the move of the day,” said Andretti Autosport’s Ryan Hunter-Reay, the fourthplace qualifier at 103.847. “We couldn’t beat him after that.”

Wilson is the first driver to reach the final six-car session — called the Fast Six — without using a set of the red tires in the first two segments since the alternate-tire program was introduced last season.

“I was OK with the first round,” the Englishman said. “The second round, I was a little nervous, but the car was that fast that we pulled it off.”

Penske’s Will Power, the series leader and a three-time winner this season on street and road courses, qualified second at 104.505.

British

121

Continued from D1 Ernie Els called him Saturday morning to wish him well. Gary Player left him a message at his hotel. Maybe it’s time for the 27year-old Oosthuizen to start thinking he could be the next South African with a claret jug.

“I don’t think anyone was thinking I was going to be up there,” Oosthuizen said. “You’ve heard yourself, no one can actually say my surname, so they don’t even know who I am out there. It’s great being up there. I just want to enjoy everything about it. I loved it out there. It was great fun for me. And hopefully, tomorrow will be the same.”

Oosthuizen (WUHST-hy-zen) was at 15-under 201. A victory today would make him the first player since Tony Lema in 1964 to win his first major at St. Andrews.

“The Open at St. Andrews would be something special,” Oosthuizen said. “It’s one of those things you dream of.”

Casey went out in 31 when the wind was at its strongest, and mostly into his face. He finished off a bogey-free round of 67 that puts him in the final group of a major for the first time. He was at 11-under 205.

It might be a two-man race between players who have never seriously challenged in a major.

Oosthuizen was seven shots clear of Martin Kaymer of Germany, who had a 68 and was alone in third. Another shot behind — and eight shots out of the lead — were Henrik Stenson (67), Alejandro Canizares (71) and Westwood (71), who didn’t make a birdie on the front nine but did well to at least stay in the game.

Americans have won six of the last eight Opens at St. Andrews, but they have disappeared in this one. Dustin Johnson birdied his last two holes for a 69 and was nine shots behind.

Tiger Woods, who won the last two times at St. Andrews by a combined 13 shots, has never been within four shots of the lead all week, and he wasn’t even close Saturday. He had four long eagle putts — only one of them on a par 5 — and three-putted for par on three of them to shoot 73. He was 12 shots behind, sure to match his longest start to the season without a victory in his seventh tournament.

“I’m playing better than my position,” said Woods, who was tied for 18th. “I certainly have had a lot more putts on the greens than I ever have, and that’s something that has basically kept me out of being in the final few groups.”

Phil Mickelson, who had a chance at the start of the week to go to No. 1 in the world, was another shot behind. Whatever momentum he had was lost with a 5-iron that he

Continued from D1 As Clemo explained it, he parred the par-4 ninth hole at Brasada. But instead of writing a “4” on the scorecard, Clemo’s playing partner, Scott Coffman, of Washougal, Wash., inadvertently wrote in a “40” — the nine-hole score Clemo shot on the front side.

As is customary in such tournaments, his playing partner read off all the correct scores for each hole, and Clemo followed along.

But when Clemo looked over the scores with his own eyes, he missed the “40,” signed his name, and turned the card in to an OGA official.

All of a sudden, a less-thanstellar round of 85 turned into an absolutely dreadful 121.

“Being stupid, I should have looked at the hole-byhole score on the card, but I kind of took what he was telling me as the way it appeared on the card,” Clemo recalled.

“I take it as a lesson learned.

I can tell you one thing: It will never happen again.”

Such scorecard errors are unusual, but not unheard of.

Perhaps the most famous scorecard blunder in golf history happened at the 1968 Masters, when Roberto de Vicenzo was disqualified for marking a score too low after the final round. At the time, he was tied for the tournament lead and appeared headed for a Monday playoff with Bob Goalby. De Vicenzo was disqualified, leaving Goalby to don the champion’s green jacket.

“That would have been a bit tougher to swallow,” said Clemo of de Vicenzo’s mistake.

Adding insult to injury for Clemo, the OGA’s electronic scoring system did not accept hole scores higher than 19. So for the OGA to have an accurate final score, the golf organization had to spread the damage across four holes.

Unfortunately for Clemo,

England’s Paul Casey tees off on the 16th hole as compatriot Lee Westwood, left, looks on during the third round of the British Open on Saturday. hooked out-of-bounds for a double bogey on No. 16 for a 70.

The South African heritage at golf’s oldest championship dates to Bobby Locke winning four times in a nine-year stretch after World War II. Player won the claret jug three times, and Els was the most recent in 2002.

Oosthuizen, whose career was made possible by the Ernie Els Foundation at Fancourt, recalls watching highlights of the Big Easy’s tough win at Muirfield and getting goosebumps.

All he felt on the first hole Saturday were nerves.

He had to wait 28 hours from his last putt on Friday to his opening shot Saturday — “It felt like a week-and-a-half,” he said — and Oost-

huizen promptly three-putted for bogey as his lead shrunk to two shots. Considering it was only the second time he made it to the weekend at a major, it looked as though it wouldn’t be long before he wilted from the pressure.

Instead, he eased his way along the humps and mounds, flashing that gap-tooth smile and following Els’ advice to enjoy himself.

Oosthuizen picked up his first birdie on the seventh hole, then added a surprise birdie late in his round with a 60-foot putt.

Even with a four-shot lead — the largest 54hole lead in the Open since Woods led by six shots in 2000 — the real test comes today.

“I’m loving the fact I’m playing absolutely great golf and I’m four shots behind Louis,” Casey said.

McCarron hosts Reno tourney, now leads The Associated Press RENO, Nev. — Scott McCarron’s decision to skip the British Open to host the Reno-Tahoe Open on his home course started to make a bit more sense Saturday.

McCarron shot a 5-under 67 to take a one-stroke lead at 10 under through three rounds at Montreux Golf & Country Club.

He birdied four of his first seven holes before chipping in for eagle on the par-5 ninth, as he bids for his fourth PGA Tour victory and first since 2001.

“It would be absolutely huge,” McCarron said. “To win a tournament that you’re hosting would be — I can’t even describe that, so I’m not going to go there right now.”

Robert Garrigus, who started the day tied for the lead with Matt Bettencourt, bogeyed the 18th to finish with a 1-over 73 and slip into a tie with John Mallinger (71) at 9 under.

Graham DeLaet, a native of Canada in his rookie season on the PGA Tour, tied the course record with a 10-under 62 and was another stroke back along with Australian Rod Pampling and Craig Barlow of Henderson, Nev. Both of them shot 67 in the third round.

McCarron, a former Reno resident who now lives in LaQuinta, Calif., said it was a difficult decision to skip the British Open and serve as the formal host in Reno.

Part of the job involves helping to secure the 12-year-old tournament a title sponsor.

“I’m very happy with my choice being here,” McCarron added. “Hosting the tournament has gone extremely well and I’ve played pretty well so far, so I’d just like to finish this off.

Also on Saturday: Gainey ties record in Ohio CINCINNATI — Tommy Gainey matched the Nationwide

Tour’s 54-hole record of 24-under par and had a four-shot lead entering the final round of the Chiquita Classic. After rounds of 64 and 66, Gainey shot a 10under 62 to match Arjun Atwal’s record set during the 2008 Chattanooga Classic. His round of 62 also matched the TPC River Bend course record.

Kim wins Public Links GREENSBORO, N.C. — Lion Kim defeated David McDaniel 6 and 5 to win the 36-hole final at the rain-delayed U.S. Amateur Public Links. The 21-year-old soon-to-be senior at Michigan came out of a 7-hour weather delay and won two straight holes, gradually built up his lead and claimed both a trophy and a traditional invitation into the field at next year’s Masters. He sank an 8-foot putt for par on the par4 No. 13 — roughly 30 minutes after sundown — to seal the victory.

that score temporarily was posted to the OGA’s website. So instead of one curious score on one hole, and an obvious error of some kind, it appeared that Clemo was one of the worst golfers in Oregon Mid-Am history.

“How do you explain that to people?” asked Clemo, who owns a Pepperidge Farm commercial bakery franchise in Portland. “I had several players that I didn’t even know, after my round the second day, come up to me and ask, ‘I’m not trying to pick on you, but can you tell me how you shot 11, 14, 19, 19 coming in?’

“I just kept reliving the mistake over and over. To me, that is the worst part of it.”

To Clemo’s credit, he is taking the whole incident with good humor.

“I’ll tell you what,” he said, “it took the pressure off the second day, that’s for sure.”

Apparently. How many golfers have ever improved by 38 strokes from one day to the next?

“I was kind of hoping for the booby prize for the biggest turnaround, but I still haven’t seen anything yet,” Clemo said.

“Can you give me a head cover or a free pull cart or something?

Come on, guys.”

Clemo played water polo in college and did not really pick up golf until 2001, he said.

He took to the game quickly and now tries to play at least one of the major OGA tournaments each year. Last week was the second time he played in the Mid-Am. And one scoring mistake — brutal as it was — won’t keep him from playing competitive golf in the future.

“I’m hoping next year when you call me it’s for a different reason,” Clemo said. “You never know.”

Mayweather stays quiet as deadline passes; Pacquiao looks for a new opponent

By Greg Beacham The Associated Press

Ryan Brennecke / The Bulletin

Racers scramble to clear the bike transition area after completing the swimming portion of the Deschutes Dash Olympic-distance triathlon Saturday.

Triathlon Continued from D1 Bend’s Todd Riley claimed second place, finishing less than a minute behind Hill (2:00:46.5).

The 2009 Deschutes Dash Olympic-distance tri champion, Bend’s Andrew Boone, 29, took third Saturday in a time of 2:02:06.9.

Other Deschutes Dash events staged Saturday included an Olympic-distance duathlon (run-bike-run), a 10-kilometer running race and the Kids Splash ’n Dash.

Men’s and women’s duathlon winners, respectively, were Sean Campbell, 44, of Klamath Falls, and Ericka Luckel, 37, of Bend.

Campbell said that in recent races he

had been losing to Saturday’s runner-up, Dave Florence, 43, of Canby. But this time, Campbell finished more than five minutes ahead of Florence with a winning time of 2:08:02.2.

“I’ve been playing second fiddle to Dave for the last couple of races,” said Campbell, adding that he thought he had the advantage on the hill climb on the bike leg — approximately 12 miles up Century Drive. “I put time on him going up the hill and going down the hill and felt pretty good on the runs.”

In the women’s duathlon, Luckel, clocking in at 2:25:36.4, finished a whopping 10 minutes ahead of runner-up Angela Allen, of Sherwood. Luckel noted that she had given birth to her first child just seven months ago.

“I ran through my whole pregnancy,” she said. “So getting back into racing hasn’t been

Manny Pacquiao reluctantly will look for another opponent for his next bout after promoter Bob Arum’s deadline for a deal with Floyd Mayweather Jr. passed Saturday without a word from Mayweather.

In the latest improbable twist in the torturous negotiations for the most tantalizing prospective fight in boxing, Arum said Mayweather’s camp simply hasn’t responded to a contract proposal with no obvious points of contention.

Pacquiao already has agreed to extensive drug testing and an equitable split of the earnings from what’s likely to be the richest fight in boxing history.

“Floyd, for whatever reason — and I’m sure he has some valid reason — didn’t want to commit,” Arum said.

Although Arum was careful not to criticize Mayweather, saying the fighter who calls himself Money could take the incredibly lucrative offer at any point in the

next week or so, Arum plans to open discussions with Antonio Margarito and Miguel Cotto for a fight in November. “(Pacquiao-Mayweather) is dead when we conclude a deal for Manny’s fight in November,” Arum said. “Then we’re contractually bound to that fight, and we would look to do a deal with Floyd for next year. If Floyd emerged and said he wanted to do the fight (in November), then there would be nothing opposed to doing the fight.”

Arum claims he couldn’t wait any longer to start the timeconsuming process of putting together a fight for Pacquiao, whose personal schedule has tightened up with his election to congress in his native Philippines this year. Arum said Top Rank needs several months to put together television deals and publicity tours for the bout.

Pacquiao and Mayweather are their sport’s top two stars, and a meeting likely would be worth more than $40 million to each fighter.

too bad. And I think there must be something … with pregnancy because I’m training much less and doing OK.” Winners in the 10K race were Tony Banks, of Devonshire, Bermuda (34:27.5), and Stephanie Howe, 27, of Bend (38:58.8).

Scheduled for today’s second and final day of the Deschutes Dash are the sprint-distance triathlon and duathlon, a 5-kilometer running race and a youth triathlon, all in and around the Old Mill District.

Nearly 1,000 participants are entered in the Deschutes Dash’s 10 endurance events.

“It’s a beautiful day,” said Barkley, Saturday’s women’s triathlon runner-up. “It’s always fun to race in Bend.”

(Commonly know as Interest A and B) No action has been instituted to recover the obligation, or any part thereof, now remaining secured by the Trust Deed or, if such action has been instituted, such action has been dismissed except as permitted by ORS 86.735(4).

The default for which the foreclosure is made is Grantor's failure to pay when due the following sums: monthly payments in full of $1,507.08 owed under the Note beginning September 20, 2009, and on the 20th day of each month thereafter; any accruing late charges; and expenses, costs, trustee fees and attorney fees.

By reason of said default, U.S. Bank National Association, as beneficiary under the Trust Deed, has declared all sums owing on the obligation secured by the Trust Deed immediately due and payable which sums are as follows: (a) the principal amount of $137,930.52 as of March 5, 2010, (b) accrued interest of $5,669.02 as of March 5, 2010, and interest accruing thereafter on the principal amount at the rate set forth in the Note until fully paid, (c) plus any late charges and any other expenses or fees owed under the Note or Trust Deed, (d) amounts that U.S. Bank National Association has paid on or may hereinafter pay to protect the lien, including by way of illustration, but not limitation, taxes, assessments, interest on prior liens, and insurance premiums, and (e) expenses, costs and attorney and trustee fees incurred by U.S. Bank National Association in foreclosure, including the cost of a trustee's sale guarantee and any other environmental or appraisal report.

By reason of said default, U.S. Bank National Association, as beneficiary under the Trust Deed, and the Successor Trustee have elected to foreclose the trust deed by advertisement and sale pursuant to ORS 86.705 to ORS 86.795 and to sell the real property identified above to satisfy the obligation that is secured by the Trust Deed.

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the undersigned Successor Trustee or Successor Trustee's agent will, on August 30, 2010, at one o'clock (1:00) p.m., based on the standard of time established by ORS 187.110, just outside the main entrance of 1164 N.W. Bond, Bend, Oregon, sell for cash at public auction to the highest bidder the interest in said real property, which Grantor has or had power to convey at the time of the execution by Grantor of the Trust Deed, together with any interest that Grantor or the successors in interest to Grantor acquired after the execution of the Trust Deed, to satisfy the foregoing obligations thereby secured and the costs and expenses of sale.

NOTICE IS FURTHER GIVEN that any person named in ORS 86.753 has the right, at any time prior to five days before the date last set for the sale, to have this foreclosure proceeding dismissed and the Trust Deed reinstated by payment to U.S. Bank National Association, as beneficiary under the Trust Deed, of the entire amount then due (other than such portion of the principal as would not then be due had no default occurred) and by curing any other default complained of herein that is capable of being cured by tendering the performance required under the obligation or Trust Deed and, in addition to paying said sums or tendering the performance necessary to cure the default, by paying all costs and expenses actually incurred in enforcing the obligation and Trust Deed, together with Trustee and attorney fees not exceeding the amounts provided by ORS 86.753.

THE BULLETIN • SUNDAY, JULY 18, 2010

DAVID BRODER

Weig h in g November strategies W

hen Congress stays in session during the dog days of a Washington summer, rebellion is always bubbling just beneath the surface.

And sure enough, it erupted at a caucus of House Democrats one night recently, triggered by an injudicious comment from White House press secretary Robert Gibbs.

Gibbs made the terrible mistake of affirming what all the Democrats know to be true, namely, that the combination of high unemployment, oil pollution in the Gulf of Mexico and growing casualties in Afghanistan has so aggravated the voters that control of the House is seriously at issue.

Gibbs was denounced for telling television interviewers that the 39 House seats Republicans would need to take over to become the majority party are certainly in play. For his candor, Gibbs was roundly roasted by some of those who could well be the victims of such an upheaval.

The president himself hied up to Capitol Hill to make amends, but the underlying ferment remains. One White House aide told me, “They (the House members) really hate the Senate, but we made it easy for them to take it out on us.” The fact is that the Democrats are out of sorts — frustrated by the effectiveness of the Republican opposition that makes it so hard to pass bills in the Senate, and battered too by the inability of Washington to solve any of the big problems facing the country.

They were greeted on their return from their Independence Day holiday with a Washington Post-ABC News poll reporting that voters think, by a margin of 51 percent to 43 percent, that it is more important to have a Republican majority in the next Congress to act as a check on President Barack Obama’s policies, rather than a Democratic majority to support him.

Unless Obama can turn that psychology around, the Democrats could well be on their way to another 1994-style defeat.

I was sent an advance copy of another poll, this one done for the Third Way, a leading moderate think tank, by the Benenson Strategy Group, which has worked for past Obama campaigns. It suggests one possible way of shifting the odds.

This rests on reviving, one more time, the favorite Obama tactic of 2008: Run against George W. Bush, even though he is not on the ballot.

Unprompted, only 25 percent of voters in this survey said they think that if Republicans regain a majority, it will signal a return to Bush’s economic policies. By comparison, 65 percent say a Republican Congress would promote “a new economic agenda that is different” from Bush’s.

The difference is dramatic when Bush enters the equation. Obama’s economic agenda is preferred over Bush’s by 49 percent to 34 percent. But a generic conservative approach, pitting a leader “who will start from scratch with new ideas to shrink government, cut taxes and grow the economy” beats one committed to sticking with Obama’s policies, 64 percent to 30 percent.

In the absence of any clear Republican platform for the midterm election like the 1994 Contract with America, it is hard to say what Republicans would actually do with a congressional majority. We know what they have voted against — all the major bills Obama has sponsored to cure the Great Recession and regulate Wall Street and rework the health care system.

In a memo accompanying the poll, the Third Way authors claim they know Republicans would echo Bush’s approach of cutting taxes and minimizing government regulation.

They argue that by labeling a future Republican Congress as a Bush Congress, Democrats can beat the opposition back.

But I am not so certain. One question in the Third Way poll asked which path voters prefer to jump-start private-sector job creation and economic growth — new government investments or cutting taxes on business?

Cutting taxes on business won 54 percent to 32 percent. This sounds to me like Ronald Reagan returning to whomp Barack Obama. Maybe all the Republicans have to do is to reject the Bush label and bring Reagan back for an encore.

Microbes in our bodies may hold the key to fighting various diseases, but there’s still much we need to learn

Allen Brisson-Smith / New York Times News Service

Dr. Alexander Khoruts, a gastroenterologist at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, and his colleagues were able to do something other doctors could not do during a fecal transplant surgery: They took a genetic survey of the bacteria in the patient’s intestines before and after the transplant so that the doctors can track the good microbes and the bad.

The mystery

inside us

Your body: A colony of creatures Although hundreds of microbial species have been identified in the body, scientists expect to discover thousands more now that a comprehensive census of them is under way.

BACTERIA-FREE AT BIRTH Humans are born “sterile,” with no bacteria, but start being colonized from the instant they break from the womb.

HUMAN vs. FOREIGN CELLS By adulthood, the human body has an estimated 110 trillion cells, but only about 10 percent are truly “us.”

10 trillion Number of “human” cells including heart cells, bone cells, etc.

D

r. Alexander Khoruts had run out of options.

In 2008, Khoruts, a gastroenterologist at the University of Minnesota, took on a patient suffering from a vicious gut infection of Clostridium difficile. She was crippled by constant diarrhea, which had left her in a wheelchair wearing diapers. Khoruts treated her with an assortment of antibiotics, but nothing could stop the bacteria. His patient was wasting away, losing 60 pounds over the course of eight months. “She was just dwindling down the drain, and she probably would have died,” Khoruts said.

Khoruts decided his patient needed a transplant.

But he didn’t give her a piece of someone else’s intestines, or a stomach, or any other organ. Instead, he gave her some of her husband’s bacteria.

Khoruts mixed a small sample of her husband’s stool with saline solution and delivered it into her colon. Writing in the Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology last month, Khoruts and his colleagues reported that her diarrhea vanished in a day. Her Clostridium difficile infection disappeared as well and has not returned since.

The procedure — known as bacteriotherapy or fecal transplantation — had been carried out a few

times over the past few decades. But Khoruts and his colleagues were able to do something previous doctors could not: They took a genetic survey of the bacteria in her intestines before and after the transplant.

Before the transplant, they found, her gut flora was in a desperate state. “The normal bacteria just didn’t exist in her,” said Khoruts. “She was colonized by all sorts of misfits.”

Two weeks after the transplant, the scientists analyzed the microbes again. Her husband’s microbes had taken over. “That community was able to function and cure her disease in a matter of days,” said Janet Jansson, a microbial ecologist at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and a coauthor of the paper. “I didn’t expect it to work. The project blew me away.”

Scientists are regularly blown away by the complexity, power and sheer number of microbes that live in our bodies. “We have over 10 times more microbes than human cells in our bodies,” said Dr. George Weinstock of Washington University in St. Louis. But the microbiome, as it’s known, remains mostly a mystery. “It’s as if we have these other organs, and yet these are parts of our bodies we know nothing about.”

Saving Redmond’s Evergreen school

O

fficials with the city of Redmond and the Redmond School District agree about one thing: The community wants the old Evergreen Elementary School building

saved. Finding out what the building is worth is a good step toward that end.

The school is one of the city’s oldest buildings, and it has a proud history. It was designed by Lee Thomas and built in 1921-22 as Redmond Union High School. It boasts good examples of 1920s classical Roman elements, according to a 1991 article in The Bulletin. Thomas also designed the buildings that house the Bend-La Pine Schools administration and the Boys & Girls Club of Bend at about the same time.

The old building has run its course as a school. District officials have put it on the market, though a purchaser would not be able to tear it down to put a new building up. The current asking price is $3.5 million, so it’s no surprise that the school board was shocked when city officials offered a mere $250,000 for it recently. City officials say that they, too, are committed to keeping the school intact but point out that doing so is an expensive proposition. In fact, they argue, it will cost about $5 million to remodel the old building to make it usable.

If the deal goes through, city officials plan to sell the building to private

developers with a contract that assures the city will be allowed to lease it back at a specified price for a specified period of time. When that period ends, the city will purchase the building at an agreed-upon price. The advantage of such a complex procedure is that it allows the builder to make use of tax advantages not available to the city and thus save money on the project, reducing the ultimate cost to the city.

What it’s not likely to do, says City Manager David Brandt, is to allow the developer to avoid prevailing wage rules that drive costs up. When municipalities are involved, even indirectly, he says, the rules apply.

That’s unfortunate, for it means that if the city is to get the building, it will cost more to make usable than if a forprofit business were to get it.

Meanwhile, city and school district officials are so far apart on what they believe the building is worth that the district has decided to have it appraised, even as talks with the city continue. That’s a useful exercise, no matter who ends up buying the building.

There’s plenty of room for skiers, dogs on trails

U

.S. Forest Service officials must sometimes feel they’re walking a tightrope when balancing the needs of various visitors to the Deschutes National Forest. Now they’re prepared to tackle that high wire once again, this time by trying to accommodate crosscountry skiers and others who want to bring their unleashed dogs on winter outings. It won’t be easy.

Dogs currently are allowed south of Century Drive in the Wanoga Sno-park area, though it’s far from an ideal location. That part of the forest is favored by snowmobilers, and dogs and snowmobiles don’t mix all that well. Moving the dogs makes sense, but finding the right place for them will be tricky.

Among the areas forest officials are considering is the Nordeen Loop, roughly between the Swampy Lakes Sno-park and Virginia Meissner Sno-park. The trail, heavily used by cross-country skiers, would be groomed to make it more dog friendly, and dogs would be allowed off leash on it.

There are potential problems, however. Some skiers note that using an 18-foot-wide groomed trail provides a different experience than the

traditional quiet glide through the trees that classic skiers have come to love.

Also, there’s concern that dogs could punch through the snow, creating holes in ski tracks. And, no matter where dogs are allowed, the Forest Service must make it easy for owners to pick up after their critters, and dog owners will have to expect to keep their animals well-behaved, leash or no.

Yet the problems shouldn’t be insurmountable, and the Forest Service is actively seeking to engage those with an interest in the subject, positive or negative. For now, the agency wants ideas for shaping a meeting on the topic this fall in addition to more general comments on the idea.

After that, presumably, it will come up with a policy that attempts to please as many people as possible, both those who love dogs and those who love to have them left at home.

If you believe you have a stake in the outcome, now is the time to make your feelings known, either by e-mail (sjeffries@fs.fed.us) or by conventional mail (Shane Jeffries, 1230 N.E. Third St., Suite A-262, Bend, OR 97701).

My Nickel’s Worth A biking paradise I have lived in Bend for seven years.

I am 65 years of age, a retired lawyer and serious biker. I have participated in organized bike tours around the world.

In my opinion, Central Oregon has some of the best biking roads in the world. Many roads have sufficient bike lanes, relatively smooth pavement and beautiful scenery. The fact that several major biking organizations choose to hold their events in this community confirms my opinion.

I believe the community would benefit financially by encouraging more bike touring companies to stage tours in this vicinity. One of the primary attractions would be Century Drive and the Cascade Lakes Highway. Unfortunately, there is no suitable return route from Sunriver to Bend, other than busy U.S. Highway 97. Few tour companies would have their participants bike that route.

The perfect return route is Road 41.

Unfortunately, it is unpaved for much of its distance. If it were paved, it would provide a convenient bike route from Sunriver to Bend and would encourage more tour companies to schedule tours here.

I recently read an article in The Bulletin that the U.S. Forest Service is proposing to build a welcome or visitor center on Century Drive, near Road 41.

In my opinion, a visitor center will do little to benefit the community or at-

tract more tourists to Bend, Sunriver or the Cascade Lakes. I encourage the Forest Service, instead, to spend those funds on paving the existing Road 41 to make it accessible to road bikes and vehicles.

David Loadman Bend

Follow the law In her July 8 “In My View” piece, Janet Whitney makes an impassioned case for ignoring the law and encouraging the presence of illegal immigrants in our communities. In defense of her position she cites the fact that these “undocumented immigrants” pay $6-$7 billion into Social Security and will never receive benefits. This is, of course, because they illegally used bogus or stolen Social Security numbers when they fraudulently applied for a job that it was illegal for them to have because they had illegally entered the country without authorization.

That’s at least three broken laws so far, so why would they not apply for welfare (food stamps, Medicaid, cash support) they aren’t legally eligible for?

The author fails to mention that in return for that money paid into Social Security they have also sent something in excess of $20 billion (Migration News, University of California, Davis) back to Mexico to be spent in the economy there instead of here.

If we are to be a country of laws, we

cannot allow individuals to pick and choose among the laws they will obey and those they will ignore. If I were to use a stolen Social Security number and identity to get a job, a driver’s license, open a bank account and apply for welfare benefits, I am pretty sure I would be prosecuted. The same standard should apply to anyone else who does the same thing.

Humanely gassed “My Nickel’s Worth” should be changed to “Ridiculous Rants” after reading yet another commentary comparing the workers who euthanized the geese to Nazis. This is as deplorable as it gets.

These geese were humanely gassed and are being utilized as food for the needy. I have firsthand had to deal with dodging the goose excrement, and it’s almost impossible. It is a health hazard, folks. While I realize those who protested are no doubt from Disneyland territory. Well, guess what?

This isn’t Disneyland anymore. This is a real issue. And the shrill evoking of the Holocaust is uncalled for.

Here’s an idea: If you dislike this so much, take 50 geese and keep them on your back lawn, feeding them for a few weeks. Then let your toddler go play on the lawn. How’s that?

What George Steinbrenner thought of George Costanza

B

ig George Steinbrenner could be hard on his employees, especially little George Costanza.

In the hilarious fictional Yankees world depicted on “Seinfeld,” Steinbrenner once had Costanza hauled off to a mental institution.

The Yankees owner testified in court that Costanza was a communist — “as pink as they come, like a big juicy steak.”

The mercurial billionaire made poor Costanza fetch eggplant calzones and listen to paranoid rants, including one about Babe Ruth: “Nothing more than a fat old man with little girl legs. And here’s something I just found out recently: He wasn’t really a sultan!”

The Steinbrenner doppelganger, shown only from behind and voiced by Larry David, the brilliant “Seinfeld” co-creator and Yankees fan, even scalped his own tickets.

“Who else could be a memorable character on a television show without actually appearing on the show?” Jerry Seinfeld told the OnTheRedCarpet blog after hearing that the larger-than-life Steinbrenner had died of a heart attack on the day of the All-Star Game.

But how did the Yankees owner feel about Big Stein, his oddball yet finally lovable caricature in “Seinfeld”?

My friend David Sussman called “The Boss” his boss for eight years, working as the Yankees’ general counsel and, for the last five of those, as the team’s chief operating officer. He shared the inside baseball on Steinbrenner’s relationship with “Seinfeld,” which was, naturally, oddball yet finally lovable.

In the mid-’90s, NBC contacted Sussman to ask Steinbrenner to do a cameo on an episode and to get his permission to use a Yankees pennant on the wall of Jerry’s apartment. The Boss considered the part demeaning and refused either to appear — “Why would I do that?” he snapped — or to allow the pennant to be used.

When the show aired a few days later with the pennant on Jerry’s wall, Steinbrenner didn’t say anything. A year later, Seinfeld came back with a minor request, Sussman recalled. The star wanted permission to use a Yankees uniform in an episode where George Costanza decides to switch the uniform from polyester to cotton — a disaster once the cotton shrinks.

Seinfeld had already arranged for Yan-

MAUREEN DOWD kees right-fielder Danny Tartabull and manager Buck Showalter to appear on the show.

Sussman told him that, given the earlier script and the unauthorized use of the pennant, Steinbrenner would never agree. Seinfeld apologized profusely to Sussman and asked for another chance.

Couldn’t the lawyer just show The Boss the script? Seinfeld faxed it over to Sussman with the usual Hollywood cover note ending “Your friend, Jerry.”

At the end of a long day of business meetings in Tampa, Fla., Sussman told Steinbrenner about Seinfeld’s request.

“Didn’t they screw us last time?” barked The Boss, whose role model was George Patton. Sussman conveyed Seinfeld’s apology and told Steinbrenner that “this is an innocuous script that doesn’t

involve you. Some of the players and Buck are appearing on the show.”

The owner retorted, “I’ll be the judge of that. Let me see the script.”

Noticing the sign-off on the cover letter, Steinbrenner, sensitive even to imagined breaches of loyalty, needled his lawyer: “Oh, I can see you and JERRY are becoming close friends.”

After reading less than a page, Steinbrenner angrily threw down the script.

“I thought you said this doesn’t involve me?” he bellowed.

Sussman tried over and over to reassure him that this script involved no cameo for the owner.

“Then,” Steinbrenner demanded, “what are all of these references to ‘George’ in the script?”

Sussman was stunned but tried to explain: “ ‘George’ is George Costanza. He is a character on the show. He is a friend of Seinfeld’s and he plays the role of one of your employees.”

Steinbrenner acted incredulous, intoning: “I thought you were smarter than that. Don’t you see? This is how they are trying to get at me. They have named their character after me.”

All attempts to tell him that the “George” character had been on the show since it started were brushed aside.

“Here’s what we do,” Steinbrenner declared. “Call your FRIEND Jerry back and tell him he has Mr. Steinbrenner’s permission to use the Yankees uniform but on one condition: He changes the name of the Costanza character. In fact, have him name this character after you, David.”

Sussman conveyed the good news/ bad news message to Seinfeld, who was understandably befuddled. The Boss declined to return Jerry’s phone calls to Tampa.

The following Friday, Steinbrenner called Sussman to discuss business, and then seemingly casually noted: “Oh yes, that request from your friend Jerry Seinfeld. I watched that ‘Seinfeld’ show last night. It is a really funny show. And the George character is great. So you tell your friend Jerry he has my permission.”

And that’s how George and George coexisted happily ever after.

O Holder’s hypocrisy can’t be tolerated A

ttorney General Eric Holder has developed a bad habit of accusing others of acting in bad faith while doing so himself.

Take the issue of Guantanamo Bay. In Aspen, Colo., last week, Holder accused Congress of playing politics in preventing President Obama from closing the Guantanamo Bay detention center — as Obama had serially promised to do within a year of his inauguration.

But this accusation is disingenuous for a variety of reasons.

Obama campaigned on calls to reverse the Bush administration anti-terrorism protocols, charging that they were either unnecessary or counterproductive. Then, when invested with the responsibility of governance, Obama suddenly reversed himself on almost all of them — tribunals, renditions, Iraq, the Patriot Act, targeted airborne assassinations and Guantanamo Bay. Holder himself — in the quite different political climate of 2002 — once supported the detention of terrorists without regard for the Geneva Conventions.

What made him so radically change his views?

In fact, any time Obama wishes to close Guantanamo Bay, he can simply carry out his earlier executive order, in the same manner in which President Bush opened it without congressional approval. In blaming Congress, Holder does not mention the real reasons why the president broke his promise: The

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON American public now wants unrepentant terrorists to stay in Guantanamo rather than be incarcerated and tried in civilian courts here at home.

Holder got himself into trouble last year when he played politics by announcing that the administration would try Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the terrorist architect of 9/11, in a civilian courtroom. The boast was supposed to contrast an enlightened Obama team with the demonized Bush administration’s supposed lawlessness in confining Mohammed to Guantanamo.

But after New Yorkers protested against holding the trial next to the scene of the 9/11 crime, Holder backed off. Meanwhile, the president rushed to assure the nation that Mohammed would be “convicted” and have “the death penalty … applied to him.” At that point, Bush’s planned military tribunals seemed a lot less prejudicial than Holder’s planned civilian show trials.

Holder’s continual refusal to link radical Islam with the epidemic of global terrorism is likewise entirely political.

When asked at a congressional hear-

ing whether radical Islamic terrorists were behind the Fort Hood killings, the attempted Christmas Day bombing and the foiled Times Square bomb attack, Holder refused to identify that obvious common catalyst. He cited instead a “variety of reasons.” The nation’s chief prosecutor was not looking at the evidence, but adhering to a politically correct predetermined dogma.

On matters of race, the attorney general castigated Americans as “a nation of cowards” for not engaging in a national conversation on his own terms.

This was an odd accusation since at present we have a black president, attorney general, EPA head and NASA chief, Hispanic secretaries of Labor and the Interior, and a recent Hispanic Supreme Court appointment, not to mention that the two previous secretaries of state were black.

The president himself accused police of stereotyping minorities and acting “stupidly” in arresting his friend, Harvard professor Henry Louis Gates.

Some conversation.

Nor would Holder’s envisioned dialogue include attitudes such as Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor’s self-identification as a “wise Latina” who supposedly exercises superior judgment over the usual white male jurist. In truth, the nation suffers from too much racial self-identification and politicking, not too little.

Yet Holder himself has used race

for political purposes. He criticized Arizona for its anti-illegal alien law — after admitting that he hadn’t read it. Then he chose to sue the state for trying to enforce unenforced federal immigration laws. Now he has promised that if that tactic fails, he will play the race card on Arizona, alleging in yet another suit that its new legislation would entail racial profiling. Remember, the law has not gone into effect yet, so Holder has no evidence of how it will play out.

Holder just dropped a voter fraud case against the New Black Panther Party, which was caught on tape intimidating voters at a polling place. He is leveling charges of racism against those who deliberately excluded racial profiling in their legislation, while giving a free pass to those who blatantly used race to bother voters at the polls.

In just 18 months, Holder has proven to be the most political attorney general since Richard Nixon’s attorney general, John Mitchell. And like the hyper-partisan Mitchell, Holder will continue to embarrass the nation until he steps down. Given his partisan temperament and checkered record in both the Clinton and Obama administrations, his departure is not a matter of if — only when.

Russia just announced plans to build an “Innovation City” in Skolkovo, outside Moscow. This “technopolis” is planned as a free-enterprise zone to attract the world’s best talent.

There is just one problem, notes Aron: “Importing ideas and technology from the West has been a key element in Russia’s ‘modernizations’ since at least Peter the Great in the early 18th century. …

But Russia has tightly controlled what it imported: Machines and engineers, yes.

A spirit of free inquiry, a commitment to innovation free from bureaucratic ‘guidance’ and, most important, encouragement of brave, even brash, entrepreneurs who can be confident they will own the results of their work — most certainly no. Peter and his successors sought to produce fruit without cultivating the roots. ... Only a man or woman free from fear and overseers can build a Silicon Valley. And such men and women are harder and harder to come by in Russia today. … Disgusted and scared by the

lawlessness and rampant corruption. … Russian entrepreneurs are investing very little in their country beyond their immediate production needs.”

No, everything the Russians should want from us is everything they don’t have to steal. It is also everything we should be celebrating and preserving but lately have not: open immigration, educational excellence, a culture of innovation and a financial system designed to promote creative destruction, not “destructive creation,” as the economist Jagdish Bhagwati called it.

So let’s also remember that being spied on by the Russians today is not an honor. It’s just an old habit. The countries we need to be worried about are the ones whose teachers, bureaucrats, savers, investors and innovators — not spies — are beating us in broad daylight at our own game.

Why the center holds the majority in Britain

By Fareed Zakaria Newsweek Magazine

I

n Britain, even pain is popular.

We’ve all seen the pictures of Britain’s chancellor of the Exchequer holding a tattered briefcase as he proceeds to Parliament to present the budget. The rest of the world has watched the event with some bemusement. It’s a typically British spectacle, complete with funny titles (why isn’t he called finance minister like everyone else?) and lots of tradition. It’s very quaint, very old money. (The briefcase is in fact 150 years old and is so tattered that it was finally sent to a museum.) But no one has really cared much what was inside that budget box.

Until now. Three weeks ago the new chancellor, 39-year-old Tory George Osborne, presented a budget that promised to get Britain’s fiscal house in order with sharp cuts in spending, coupled with tax increases. It landed in the midst of a heated debate across the industrialized world about how to best get the economy back on track.

Osborne and his boss, Prime Minister David Cameron, have come down firmly on one side of this debate, hoping that a major effort to reduce the deficit will reassure bond markets and investors that Britain is a safe and

compelling place to put their money.

Leaving aside the economics of this, what struck me as I spent time in Britain last week was the politics of deficit reduction. Having announced major cuts in popular programs, plus hefty tax increases, the Cameron government might be expected to be losing popularity by the day. But in fact the budget was well received by the public — though attacked ferociously from the left — and the governing coalition has actually inched up a bit in the polls.

There are several possible reasons for this. Cameron has played the public role of prime minister exceedingly well, making a pitch-perfect apology for the British Army’s wrongful use of force in Northern Ireland in 1972, and handling himself on the global stage with grace and ease. It’s also true, of course, that the effect of the cuts and taxes has not yet been felt, and when that happens, the government’s poll ratings might plunge. But clearly the honesty of the budget has resonated with voters. It’s heartening to see a government do something that it must have thought would be deeply unpopular, and then be rewarded by the public.

Outside the country, Cameron is the victorious and, so far, successful prime minister of Britain, but inside, particu-

larly in his own party, a debate continues about the election results. A Labour government had been in power for 13 years, Prime Minister Gordon Brown was deeply unpopular, and the economy was in shambles — yet the Tories could not eke out a majority. Without the alliance they formed with the Liberal Democrats, they would not have had a parliamentary majority. The Tory share of the total vote rose to only 36 percent, far below the levels under Margaret Thatcher.

After Thatcher, conservatism in Britain became radioactive. As Tony Blair moved the Labour Party to the center, the Tories moved right, became extreme and thus politically unviable.

Their vote totals fell to historic lows, which partly explains why they have not become a majority despite the largest gain in parliamentary seats since the 1930s. Cameron has tried to return the party to the center on all kinds of issues — from the environment to gay rights — but he still has not earned all the public’s trust. Minorities and working women still find it hard to vote Tory (so do Scots, but that’s another matter).

The reaction to the budget, though, shows that he’s got the right idea — politically at least. Ever since the end of

I

the Cold War, pundits have been eager to declare political realignments. When Bill Clinton and Blair won, observers hailed a liberal wave; victories by Newt Gingrich and George W. Bush were thought to herald new conservative majorities. In 2008 the U.S. moved left, and in 2010 the U.K. moved right. But the truth is, since the Cold War ended, most people haven’t voted based on deep ideological divides. The majority gravitate toward the center and search for a party or person who seems to reflect their sensibilities, attitudes and feelings. They want a modern party that feels as though it understands the world we live in. That’s why they can vote for Clinton and then Bush, for Blair and then Cameron.

Cameron’s coalition with the Liberal Democrats might actually give him the cover he needs to modernize his party even further. When someone in the Tory right wing pushes a policy, he can explain that he simply can’t accept it because the coalition will fall apart. If he governs from the center — and unless the budget does put the economy in a tailspin — he might well succeed in making conservatism cool again.

FRIEDMAN ports, Russia’s economy would be contracting even more than it has. Moscow’s most popular exports today are probably what they were under Khrushchev: vodka, Matryoshka dolls and Kalashnikov rifles. No, this whole spy story has the feel of one of those senior tennis tournaments — John McEnroe against Jimmy Connors, long after their primes — or maybe a rematch between Floyd Patterson and Sonny Liston in their 60s. You almost want to avert your eyes.

You also want to say to Putin: Do you mean you still don’t get it?

Everything the Russians should want from us — the true source of our strength — doesn’t require a sleeper cell to penetrate. All it requires is a tourist guide to Washington, D.C., which you can buy for less than $10. Most of it’s in the National Archives: the Bill of Rights, the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence. And the rest is in our culture and can be found everywhere from Silicon Valley to Route 128 near Boston.

It is a commitment to individual freedom, free markets, rule of law, great research universities and a culture that celebrates immigrants and innovators.

Now if the Russians start to find all that and take it home, then we’d have to start taking them more seriously as competitors. But there is little indication of that. Indeed, as Leon Aron, director of Russian studies at the American Enterprise Institute, noted in a recent essay, President Dmitry Medvedev of

An unstable economy for the grinds f you go to business conferences, you know that at lunch it is definitely better to be seated next to a prince than a grind. Princes, who can be male or female, are senior executives at major corporations.

They are almost always charming, smart and impressive. They’ve read interesting books. They’ve got well-rehearsed takes on the global situation. They can drop impressive names as they tell you about their visits to the White House, Moscow or Beijing. If you’re having lunch or dinner with a prince, you’re going to have a good time.

Grinds, on the other hand, tend to have started their own company or their own hedge fund. They’re often too awkward to work in a large organization and too intense to work for anybody but themselves.

Over lunch, they can be socially inert.

You try to draw them out by probing for one or two subjects of interest to them.

But as often as not, you find yourself playing conversational pingpong with a master of the monosyllabic response.

Every once in a while you’ll run into one who can’t help but let you know how much smarter he is than you or anybody else in the room. Sitting at this lunch is about as pleasant for him as watching a cockroach crawl up his arm. He’d much rather be back working in front of his computer screen.

Since the princes are nicer and more impressive, it is easy to be seduced into the belief that they also are more trustworthy. This is false. During the past few years, for example, the princes at Citigroup, Bear Stearns, Goldman Sachs and Lehman Brothers behaved with incredible stupidity while the hedge fund loners often behaved with impressive restraint.

As Sebastian Mallaby shows in his superb book, “More Money Than God,” the smooth operators at the big banks were playing with other people’s money, so they borrowed up to 30 times their investors’ capital. The hedge fund guys usually had their own money in their funds, so they typically borrowed only one or two times their capital.

The social butterflies at the banks got swept up in the popular enthusiasms.

The contrarians at the hedge funds made money betting against them. The well-connected bankers knew they’d get bailed out if anything went wrong. The solitary hedge fund guys knew they were on their own and regarded their trades with paranoid anxiety.

In finance, as in other realms of business life, social polish doesn’t always go with capitalist success. Often it is the most narrow, intense, awkward people who start the best companies, employ the most people and create the most value.

Sadly, this recovery has been great for princes and horrible for grinds. The people who work at the big corporations are critical of the Obama administration, but the fact is they are doing very well.

The big companies are posting excellent earnings. They’re sitting on mountains of cash.

The aspiring grinds, meanwhile, are dead in the water. Small businesses are not growing. They are not hiring. They are struggling to stay alive.

Princes can thrive in a period of slow, steady growth, but grinds need a certain sort of psychological atmosphere. They need a wide-open economy with plenty of creative destruction.

Over the past decade, professionals — lawyers, regulators and legislators — have inserted themselves into more and more economic realms. The princes are perfectly at home amid these tax breaks, low-interest loans and public-private partnerships. They went to the same schools as the professionals and speak the same language. The grinds try to stay far away and regard the interlocking network of corporate-government schmoozing with undisguised contempt.

The upshot is that we have an economy that is inching toward recovery but that is not creating much in the way of new innovations and new jobs. It’s not that the overall labor markets are shrinking. It’s just that very few grinds are bringing new ideas to scale and hiring workers to enact their us-against-the-world schemes.

For jobs to recover, the grinds have to recover.

We’ve been mired in debates over macroeconomic models recently. But maybe the real issue is how we are going to light a fire under the country’s loners, its contrarians and its narrow, ambitious outsiders.

If only the Finns were the ones spying on us I THOMAS was on vacation when the story broke that 11 Russians had been charged as sleeper agents planted in America by Moscow’s spy agency to gather intelligence on the United States and to recruit moles who could gain access to our top secrets. My first reaction was: This may be the greatest gift to America by a foreign country since France gave us the Statue of Liberty. Someone still wants to spy on us! Just when we were feeling down and out, the Russians show up and tell us that it’s still worth briefcases of money to plant people in our think tanks.

Subprime crisis or not, some people think we’ve still got the right stuff. Thank you, Vladimir Putin!

Upon reflection, though, it occurred to me that this is actually a good news/bad news story. The good news is that someone still wants to spy on us. The bad news is that it’s the Russians.

Look, if you had told me that we had just arrested 11 Finns who were spying on our schools, then I’d really have felt good — since Finland’s public schools always score at the top of the world education tables. If you had told me that 11 Singaporeans were arrested spying on how our government works, then I’d really have felt good — since Singapore has one of the cleanest, most well-run bureaucracies in the world and pays its cabinet ministers $1 million-plus a year.

If you had told me that 11 Hong Kong Chinese had been arrested studying how we regulate our financial markets, then I’d really have felt good — since that is something Hong Kong excels at. And if you told me that 11 South Koreans were arrested studying our high-speed bandwidth penetration, then I’d really have felt good — because we’ve been lagging them for a long time. But the Russians?

Who wants to be spied on by them?

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — When Christie Hodgen learned that her new book had drawn enthusiastic early reviews, she was .…

Ecstatic? Celebratory?

“More of a relief,” said the novelist and assistant English professor at the University of MissouriKansas City. “I’m not so much someone who hopes for praise, but I worry about getting kicked in the stomach.”

A few of the country’s awardwinning contemporary fiction writers live in the Kansas City metro area. Hodgen, 36, is one of these. Her literary honors include two Pushcart Prizes and an award for short fiction from the Association of Writers and Writing Programs.

Booklist recently said this about her second novel, “Elegies for the Brokenhearted”: “Hodgen’s magnificent, heartbreaking journey with its moving finish is an unforgettable novel, a must-read.”

In fact, reviews of Hodgen’s work over the years have been almost perfect. But her “kicked in the stomach” comment is interesting, because it serves as a reference to a topic in her fiction: Life will rough you up.

Like most of us, Hodgen has endured a few of life’s stomach blows, but they haven’t been as brutal or as frequent as those experienced by her luckless characters in “Elegies.” To be blunt, they get kicked in the stomach, and then they die.

It’s not called “Elegies for the Brokenhearted” for nothing.

In the novel, Hodgen follows her main character, Mary Murphy, from girlhood to adulthood, not through a linear narrative but through Mary’s bare-knuckled elegies of five crucial relationships in her life.

They include a young, ne’er-dowell uncle, a college roommate who dooms her own academic chances, and her dazzlingly beautiful mother, who marries five times.

The setting is a dying town in the Northeast, patterned after her hometown of Worcester, Mass.

Hodgen describes in the book what the inhabitants were up against: “By the time we came along, generations of decay later, the place was falling down, a third of its population jobless and walking the streets, drunks and drug addicts, crippled veterans, raving lunatics. We were poor, our lives filled with the stupid things that poor people did, the brutalities we committed against each other, the violence, the petty victories we claimed over one another, crabs topping each other in a basket instead of trying to climb out of that basket. …”

The setting isn’t so autobiographical, however. Hodgen grew up in a middle-class neighborhood inside a loving family.

Her father, John Hodgen, a teacher at her high school, was her AP English instructor. That arrangement wasn’t too uncomfortable, she said, except on nights before a writing assignment was due. She knew he knew why she was up at 3 in the morning.

John Hodgen is a well-respected poet; his fourth poetry collec-

tion, “Heaven & Earth Holding Company,” is due out in August.

He also has won an AWP Award.

They are perhaps the only fatherdaughter duo to do so.

As a father would be, he’s proud of his daughter’s hard work, her empathetic temperament and her natural and honed talents, including a “phenomenal” memory and her careful watching.

“It’s a case of her constantly Xraying the heartache of the world,” he said. “She really feels the need to bear witness.”

But John wasn’t a hands-on writing mentor for his daughter. Her first brush with serious fiction-writing came as an undergraduate at the University of Virginia, when she won a writing contest, and a professor invited her to enroll in his fiction-writing course. It’s more of a DNA connection with her father, she said.

“We feel we have the same voice,” she said. “I don’t think that was training. I think it was genetic.”

From the University of Virginia, Hodgen went on to earn a master of fine arts in creative writing at Indiana University. Afterward she worked at a Heine Brothers’ Coffee shop in Louisville, Ky., for two years. That’s when she wrote

“A Jeweler’s Eye for Flaw,” the short story collection that won the AWP Award.

Hodgen left the coffee shop and pursued her doctorate at the University of Missouri-Columbia and wrote her first novel, “Hello, I Must Be Going,” about the aftermath of suicide as told by the victim’s 9-year-old daughter. Like a lot of people, Hodgen said, she’s drawn to life’s big questions.

“Why do people choose suicide?” she said. “And why do other people choose not to live even though they are still alive?”

Hodgen is at heart a short story writer who continues to develop her skills at longer narrative, the ability to “keep more plates spinning.”

In “Elegies for the Brokenhearted,” Mary Murphy’s story develops through the tales of five people, Mary’s elegies to them.

That structure suited Hodgen’s storytelling, and it reflects the way many people experience their lives — in chunks: the growing up years, the college years, the young adult years. Key people occupy chunks of our lives, and they leave a lasting influence, she said.

Hodgen acknowledged the melancholy in the book, that Mary experiences much loss, and that while more than a few situations are darkly humorous, there’s never a “tap-dancing triumph.” Ultimately, though, Mary carves out an interesting place in life.

“If the effect of reading about loss helps people pay more attention to what they have, that would be nice,” Hodgen said. “We can make the mistake of living our lives retrospectively.”

Hodgen includes herself in that “we.”

“I spend a lot of time struggling and reflecting,” she said. “I have wished a thousand times that I was more like a friend of mine — she’s blond and boisterous, and she’d bite a head off a chicken and eat it. I love being in her company.”

Poet and best-selling author Mary Karr says there is something “sacred” about the personal things readers tell her at book signings.

“Because so many people know so much about what happened in my life, they sometimes feel comfortable telling me things they wouldn’t tell most people,” Karr says.

The author of three memoirs, she says she enjoys hearing about others’ lives and struggles. Readers compare their experiences with her own, seeking counsel and comfort.

“It’s important to me that people want to tell me their experience of reading the book or of their experience that is like mine, which is what a book should do,” Karr says.

Karr received far-reaching acclaim last year for “Lit” (HarperCollins, 386 pages, $14.99, paper), her harrowing, brilliant memoir that followed “The Liars’ Club” (1995) and “Cherry” (2000).

“Lit” recounts her battles with alcoholism, divorce and the uncertainty of raising a child in light of her own difficult youth.

Karr will find some redemption through faith in “Lit,” but when her tour ends in August, she wants to set the book on a shelf with the rest of her past, she says.

Karr is ready to move on

— write more poetry, return to teaching memoir writing at Syracuse University, perhaps compile a book of essays. She prefers to spend her days drafting new ideas.

Plus, she suffers from a fierce strain of the writer’s lament: dissatisfaction with everything she has written and a nagging urge to improve it.

“If I were to look at (“Lit”) in a bookstore, so help me God I would start crossing out paragraphs and do rewriting in the margins,” Karr says. “I’m never satisfied, so I just don’t want to look at it again.”

Among her prospective projects is a book on how to write a memoir. But prose, Karr says, requires a deeper focus for her than poetry, which she has written years longer and believes she possesses more experience doing. Book tours prevent her from achieving that focus.

Karr began her writing career as a poet; her fourth and most recent collection is “Sinners Welcome” from 2006, though later work has appeared in numerous publications and literary journals.

“I can’t write a big piece of prose on travel like this. I just can’t,” she says. “Every time I’m forced to pull myself away from what I’m writing, I leave claw marks on it.”

THE BULLETIN • Sunday, July 18, 2010 F5

Microbes Continued from F1 Weinstock is part of an international effort to shed light on those puzzling organs. He and his colleagues are cataloging thousands of new microbe species by gathering their DNA sequences. Meanwhile, other scientists are running experiments to figure out what those microbes are actually doing. They’re finding that the microbiome does a lot to keep us in good health. Ultimately, researchers hope they will learn enough about the microbiome to enlist it in the fight against diseases.

“In just the last year, it really went from a small cottage industry to the big time,” said Dr. David Relman of Stanford University.

Deciphering microbes The microbiome first came to light in the mid-1600s, when the Dutch lens-grinder Antonie van Leeuwenhoek scraped the scum off his teeth, placed it under a microscope and discovered that it contained swimming creatures. Later generations of microbiologists continued to study microbes from our bodies, but they could only study the ones that could survive in a laboratory. For many species, this exile meant death.

In recent years, scientists have started to survey the microbiome in a new way: by gathering DNA. They scrape the skin or take a cheek swab and pull out the genetic material. Getting the DNA is fairly easy. Sequencing and making sense of it is hard, however, because a single sample may yield millions of fragments of DNA from hundreds of different species.

A number of teams are working together to tackle this problem in a systematic way. Weinstock is part of the biggest of these initiatives, known as the Human Microbiome Project.

The $150 million initiative was started in 2007 by the National Institutes of Health. The project team is gathering samples from 18 sites on the bodies of 300 volunteers.

To make sense of the genes that they’re gathering, they are sequencing the entire genomes of some 900 species that have been cultivated in the lab. Before the project, scientists had only sequenced about 20 species in the microbiome. In May, the scientists published details on the first 178 genomes. They discovered 29,693 genes that are unlike any known genes.

(The entire human genome contains only around 20,000

protein-coding genes.)

“This was quite surprising to us because these are organisms that have been studied for a long time,” said Karen Nelson of the J. Craig Venter Institute in Rockville, Md. The new surveys are helping scientists understand the many ecosystems our bodies offer microbes. In the mouth alone, Relman estimates, there are between 500 and 1,000 species.

“It hasn’t reached a plateau yet: The more people you look at, the more species you get,” he said.

The mouth, in turn, is divided up into smaller ecosystems, like the tongue, the gums, the teeth.

Each tooth—and even each side of each tooth — has a different combination of species.

Scientists are even discovering ecosystems in our bodies where they weren’t supposed to exist. Lungs have traditionally been considered to be sterile because microbiologists have never been able to rear microbes from them. A team of scientists at Imperial College London recently went hunting for DNA instead. Analyzing lung samples from healthy volunteers, they discovered 128 species of bacteria. Each square centimeter of our lungs is home to 2,000 microbes.

Some microbes can only survive in one part of the body, while others are more cosmopolitan. And the species found in one person’s body may be missing from another’s. Out of the 500 to 1,000 species of microbes identified in people’s mouths, for example, only about 100 to 200 live in any one person’s mouth at any given moment. Only 13 percent of the species on two people’s hands are the same.

Only 17 percent of the species living on one person’s left hand also live on the right one.

This variation means that the total number of genes in the human microbiome must be colossal. European and Chinese researchers recently catalogued all the microbial genes in stool samples they collected from 124 individuals. In March, they published a list of 3.3 million genes.

The variation in our microbiomes emerges the moment we are born.

“You have a sterile baby coming from a germ-free environment into the world,” said Dr. Maria Dominguez-Bello, a microbiologist at the University of Puerto Rico. Recently, she and her colleagues studied how sterile babies get colonized in a hospital in the Venezuelan city of Puerto Ayacucho. They took samples from the bodies of newborns within minutes of birth.

They found that babies born

vaginally were coated with microbes from their mothers’ birth canals. But babies born by Caesarean section were covered in microbes typically found on the skin of adults.

“Our bet was that the Caesarean-section babies were sterile, but it’s like they’re magnets,” said Dominguez-Bello.

We continue to be colonized every day of our lives. “Surrounding us and infusing us is this cloud of microbes,” said Dr. Jeffrey Gordon of Washington University. We end up with different species, but those species generally carry out the same essential chemistry that we need to survive. One of those tasks is breaking down complex plant molecules. “We have a pathetic number of enzymes encoded in the human genome, whereas microbes have a large arsenal,” said Gordon.

In addition to helping us digest, the microbiome helps us in many other ways. The microbes in our nose, for example, make antibiotics that can kill the dangerous pathogens we sniff. Our bodies wait for signals from microbes in order to fully develop.

When scientists rear mice without any germ in their bodies, the mice end up with stunted intestines.

A fighting arsenal?

In order to coexist with our microbiome, our immune system has to be able to tolerate thousands of harmless species, while attacking pathogens.

Scientists are finding that the microbiome itself guides the immune system to the proper balance.

One way the immune system fights pathogens is with inflammation. Too much inflammation can be harmful, so we have immune cells that produce inflammation-reducing signals. Last month, Sarkis Mazmanian and June Round at Caltech reported that mice reared without a microbiome can’t produce an inflammation-reducing molecule called IL-10.

The scientists then inoculated the mice with a single species of gut bacteria, known as Bacteroides fragilis. Once the bacteria began to breed in the guts of the mice, they produced a signal that was taken up by certain immune cells. In response to the signal, the cells developed the ability to produce IL-10.

Scientists are not just finding new links between the microbiome and our health. They’re also finding that many diseases are accompanied by dramatic changes in the makeup of our inner ecosystems. The Imperial

College team that discovered microbes in the lungs, for example, also discovered that people with asthma have a different collection of microbes than healthy people. Obese people also have a different set of species in their guts than people of normal weight.

In some cases, new microbes may simply move into our bodies when disease alters the landscape. In other cases, however, the microbes may help give rise to the disease. Some surveys suggest that babies delivered

by Caesarian section are more likely to get skin infections from multiply resistant Staphylococcus aureus. It’s possible that they lack the defensive shield of microbes from their mother’s birth canal.

Caesarean sections have also been linked to an increase in asthma and allergies in children. So have the increased use of antibiotics in the United States and other developed countries. Children who live on farms — where they can get a healthy dose of microbes from the soil — are less prone to getting autoimmune disorders than children who grow up in cities.

A better understanding of the microbiome might give doctors a new way to fight some of these diseases. For more than a century, scientists have been investigating how to treat patients with beneficial bacteria. But probiotics, as they’re sometimes called, have only had limited success. The problem may lie in our ignorance of precisely how most microbes in our bodies affect our health.

Khoruts and his colleagues have carried out 15 more fecal transplants, 13 of which cured their patients. They’re now analyzing the microbiome of their patients to figure out precisely which species are wiping out the Clostridium difficile infections. Instead of a crude transplant, Khoruts hopes that eventually he can give his patients what he jokingly calls “God’s probiotic” — a pill containing microbes whose ability to fight infections has been scientifically validated.

Weinstock, however, warns that a deep understanding of the microbiome is a long way off.

“In terms of hard-boiled science, we’re falling short of the mark,” he said. A better picture of the microbiome will only emerge once scientists can use the genetic information Weinstock and his colleagues are gathering to run many more experiments.

“It’s just old-time science,” he said. “There are no shortcuts around that.”

Novel explores character like John Walker Lindh “American Taliban: A Novel”

by Pearl Abraham (Random House, 272 pgs., $25)

By Rh on d a D ick ey The Philadelphia Inquirer

In this slim novel, Pearl Abraham traces the path of a sweet, upper-middle-class kid from surfer dude to American Taliban.

John Jude Parish is loosely modeled on John Walker Lindh, who was captured just after the start of the U.S. war in Afghanistan, and whose comfortable background provoked as much anger in this country as his actions.

But “American Taliban” is clearly a work of the imagination, taking the outlines of a true story and creating something else. Abraham sets herself a real challenge: Most readers aren’t going to approach this novel with a lot of sympathy for a young man — even an innocent, endearing one — who falls in with people who attack this country. Yet she does manage to draw a character who evokes sympathy, even as he drifts from inexplicable situations into unconscionable ones.

And it’s always tricky to make these improbable transformations believable. A good writer has to make the changes gradual yet inevitable — make it clear why this particular person took a wrong turn and couldn’t right himself.

Abraham deftly strews John’s path to disaster with challenges he could meet, but doesn’t. As you read, you think: Is this the turning

point? Is this? The skateboarding accident that landed John in the hospital? Studying religion at a sharia school rather than at college? Spending a summer in Pakistan? Encountering 12year-olds in Peshawar who had been blinded at a bomb-making retreat? But of course, they’re all turning points. And of course, John is blind to their significance, and to the chance they offer to take charge of his life’s direction.

If John had stayed in the kind of life his parents had envisioned — Brown University, some travel or volunteer work, then a profession — he probably would have been fine.

That’s one of the most interesting questions “American Taliban” raises: Can parents rear their children in all the right ways for the lives they imagine for the children, and yet leave them unprepared when the path veers unpredictably?

In many ways, Bill and Barbara Parish did a great job bringing John up. He’s genuinely decent and caring, bright, and interested in other cultures and in people who aren’t exactly like him.

Because the roles of Bill, and especially Barbara, are such a subtle subtext in the novel, it’s easy to see the ending initially as evidence that Abraham couldn’t think of a way to wrap up her story. But on reflection, the conclusion seems much more like an act that’s both unsettling and a gesture of real empathy.

“As Husbands Go”

by Susan Isaacs (Scribner, 342 pgs., $25)

By Marion Winik Newsday

Long Island floral designer Susie Gersten gives up the goods on herself on the second page of Susan Isaacs’ latest whodunit. “(It) wouldn’t have taken a psychologist to read my emotional pie chart and determine that the sum of my parts equaled one shallow (though contented) human being. One third of that happiness was attributable to the afterglow of the birthday present my husband had given me two weeks earlier, a Cartier Santos watch. Another third was courtesy of Lexapro (20 milligrams). A little over a sixth came from the pure sensual gratification of being wrapped in a tea-green Loro Piana cashmere bathrobe. The remaining sliver was bona fide maternal bliss.”

Ah, but Susie’s perfect world is about to take a hit even a closetful of designer clothes cannot soften — the sudden disappearance of her Park Avenue plastic surgeon husband, Jonah Gersten. By all accounts Jonah is a good man, deeply in love with his wife and their 4-year-old triplet sons. How could he possibly turn up stabbed to death in the Upper East Side apartment of a prostitute? An ugly prostitute for that matter, Susie observes in horror as she watches the perp walk on CNN. It’s way too much for her to grasp. Why would Jonah even visit the wide-nosed, walleyed Dorinda Dillon? If there’s one thing Jonah cares about, it’s how things look, and if there’s one thing Susie’s confident about, it’s her beauty. She has “cheekbones like that of Mrs. Genghis Khan.” She has pale green eyes so mesmerizing people can only attempt to capture them with

words like “intriguing,” “compelling,” “gorgeous” and even “liquid jade mix’d with cream.” And from the neck down, she’s the Pilates Queen, a size eight “but more toward a six than a 10.”

And that’s not all. If her gorgeous, willowy 80-year-old lookalike grandmother is any indication, Susie will look exactly like this in 50 years. Grandma Ethel O’Shea, a Miami talk-show host, has been lost to the family since she ran off and abandoned Susie’s “belligerently unattractive” mother decades ago. (The poor girl’s looks seem to have been a big part of the reason.) Now Ethel and her girlfriend, a civil rights lawyer named Sparky, show up out of the blue while Susie is sitting shiva. In an 11th-hour surge of maternal instinct, Ethel becomes her granddaughter’s partner in searching for answers to the questions that torment her.

“As Husbands Go” is perfectly timed to accompany you on a meaningless afternoon of summer pleasure. If it had been up to Susie Gersten, it surely would come packaged with a tube of the world’s most elite designer sunscreen, something with an intimidating price tag and an unpronounceable brand name.

Striking protagonist carries story of journey from grief “The Lovers”

by Vendela Vida (Ecco, 228 pgs., $23.99)

By Steve Giegerich St. Louis Post-Dispatch

There is certain risk in casting fiction in a single, narrative voice. If it works, the character carries the day. If it doesn’t, well .…

In her third novel, Vendela Vida pulls off the feat with aplomb, casting “The Lovers” entirely in the voice of Yvonne, teacher and widow.

“The Lovers” begins with Yvonne’s arrival in Datca, Turkey, where she and her husband, Peter, had honeymooned.

A few years have passed since Peter’s untimely death. It is time for Yvonne to assuage her grief.

“The Lovers” would have succeeded even if Vida had somehow failed to mold Yvonne into a character as conflicted as she is winsome.

Vida, who earned praise with her previous novel, “Let the Northern Lights Erase Her Name,” has an eye for understated details that leap from the page and linger in the soul: • “The problem with being a history teacher was that everyone assumed your interest in the past was undying. Every birthday gift was an antique.”

• “Her voice was suddenly unpleasant, the consonants of her words scraping against each other like a zipper.”

• “She observed that the rocking of the boat wasn’t side to side, like a cradle. It was more like a clock laid flat, tilting toward three, six, nine and twelve

before starting the cycle all over again.”

Vida deftly weaves the power of description into the broader tapestry of Yvonne’s journey as the wife of a fellow teacher and mother of fraternal twins, one of whom waged an epic and often losing battle with drugs and alcohol.

The daughter, Aurelia, joins a cast of particularly strong supporting characters, each contributing to Yvonne’s rediscovery along the Turkish coast.

The cameos by Aurelia and an emotionally abused Turkish wife, flashbacks to Peter and even an allegorical appearance by an owl provide the novel with perspec-

tive without detracting from the its central theme.

And one character shines above the others: Ahmet, a playful, industrious Turkish 10-yearold with whom Yvonne forges a bond on a sandy beach.

“She had traveled to Turkey to regain something of what she had with Peter decades earlier

— and failing that, she had befriended the boy,” Vida writes.

For both parties it is a poignant friendship, ripe with meaning.

And its outcome defines Yvonne, past, present and future.

“The Lovers,” slim and transportive, is an invitation to join Yvonne on her journey.

It’s worth the trip.

At age 93, Athill still has more to tell us “Instead Of A Letter”

by Diana Athill (W.W. Norton & Co., 237 pgs., $14.95 paper) “After A Funeral”

by Diana Athill (W.W. Norton & Co., 199 pgs., $13.95 paper)

By Linda Winer Newsday

When Diana Athill’s maternal grandmother was dying a long and painful death at 92, Athill writes, she “turned her beautiful speckled eyes towards me one afternoon and said in so many words: ‘What have I lived for?’ ” At least that is the way Athill remembers the moment, and who would want to doubt her? It is this question, turned on herself, that begins her engrossing memoir, “Instead of a Letter,” first published in 1962. This led to more books about her singular life and times — including “Stet” (2000), about the British editor’s 50-year career publishing such giants as John Updike, Margaret Atwood, V.S. Naipaul and Jean Rhys, and “Somewhere Towards the End,” her celebrated observations on aging, which, at 91, made her a best-selling, prize-winning author and Officer of the British Empire.

What a gift that, two years later, we can savor her first two memoirs — “Instead of a Letter,” about her childhood and a lost love, and “After a Funeral” (1986), about her complex relationship with a charming, severely unstable Egyptian exile, a writer she calls Didi, who committed suicide in her flat in 1969.

Athill, now 93, has not merely lived an interesting life and observed it. Clearly, she has always been a wonderful storyteller, as masterly about suspense and pacing as she is brutally perceptive about other people, postEmpire British social history and herself. “Instead of a Letter” feels a bit overdecorated at first — as descriptive and leisurely as an English costume drama.

But soon she drops in a nugget of foreshadowing, a throwaway line indicating the wartime death of the man she believed to be the love of her life and, later, a shocker about him that previews “twenty years of unhappiness” for this girl we’ve come to trust as lively and hearty.

In both books, we journey through the life of a sexually adventurous unmarried woman — “if not a career woman, at least a woman who had found a career” — who co-founded, almost by happenstance, an important English publishing company with Andre Deutsch.

B U S I N E SS IN BRIEF Consumer confidence plummets in July U.S. consumer sentiment fell in early July to the lowest level since August, according to survey results released Friday

by Reuters and the University of Michigan. The index fell to 66.5 in early July from 76 in late June, a drop attributed to consumers’ worries about weak hiring and a slowly healing economy. The June reading was the highest level in more than two years. The average level of the index is around 87.

The reading has only dropped this much or more seven times since the data’s earliest year, 1978. The drop of 9.5 points in early July compares with a drop of 9.7 points following the 9/11 terrorist attacks in 2001. The university will produce a final July sentiment reading later this month.

First Tesla-Toyota project: electric SUV Tesla Motors Inc. and Toyota Motor Corp. plan to develop an electric version of the RAV4 SUV that would go on sale in the U.S. two years from now.

The venture is the first project announced by the companies since Toyota purchased about 3 percent of Tesla for $50 million earlier this year.

Toyota is providing the body and other major components, and Tesla is contributing its battery system and electric power train. Previously, Toyota has made a limited number of electric RAV4s but never commercialized the vehicle. Tesla will build and deliver a fleet of prototypes to Toyota for evaluation this year.

It’s good news for consumers looking for an electric vehicle larger than the Chevrolet Volt, Nissan Leaf and Ford Focus — electrics coming on to the market over the next several years, analysts said.

Loan rates steady Mortgage rates were unchanged last week at the lowest point in decades, but it hasn’t been enough to jumpstart the housing market.

Freddie Mac said Thursday the average rate for 30-year fixed loans was 4.57 percent, the same as a week earlier and the lowest since Freddie Mac began tracking rates in 1971.

Central Oregon building permits plunge in June There were 20 single-family building permits taken out in the cities of Bend and Redmond, the rest of Deschutes County and Crook and Jefferson counties in June, 57.4 percent less than June 2009, according to Don Patton, publisher of “The Central Oregon Housing Market Letter” and owner of Cascade Central Business Consultants.

Since Jan. 1, 205 permits have been issued, June total 3 percent more for Deschutes, than in the Crook and same six Jefferson months counties last year.

JOHN S T E A RNS

— Damian Schmitt, former owner of Bend’s now-closed Westside Video (and an admitted user of video rental kiosks)

Beyond Netflix Video rental kiosks are popping up around Central Oregon, indicating that the industry keeps evolving. And a familiar name, Blockbuster, is behind the newest push.

By David Holley The Bulletin

K

iosk machines were at least partly responsible for the closure of Bend’s Westside Video in early 2009. Even so, former owner Damian Schmitt has since used them.

He can’t hold too much of a grudge. His options for renting movies in Bend are limited, primarily to the kiosks, Blockbuster and Netflix. Hollywood Video, which Schmitt thought had the best film selection, is liquidating its stores’ merchandise.

Schmitt’s reasons for using the kiosks are common: They’re convenient and quick.

“People have busy lives, and I think a lot of times they go for convenience more than anything,” he said, but “you’re not going to get the great independent film or foreign movie.”

As technology continues to develop, the video rental industry is shifting away from the video store and to digital downloads, according to one industry analyst. Part of the transition to digital rentals includes kiosk rental stations like Redbox, 23 of which are now stationed in Central Oregon.

Blockbuster jumped into the kiosk world in 2008, and now has brought its Blockbuster Express kiosks to Central Oregon.

A few weeks ago, the Blockbuster stations replaced DVDPlay in local Safeways and at the Erickson’s Thriftway in Madras and Prineville.

The move into kiosks represents part of Blockbuster Inc.’s effort in an uphill battle to recapture its place as the leader of movie rentals from Netflix and Redbox.

Nearly 900 of Blockbuster’s 7,400 stores internationally — some of them franchises — closed during 2009, and the corporation’s stock price dropped so much it was delisted from the New York Stock Exchange earlier this month.

On Thursday, a share of Blockbuster’s over-the-counter stock was worth 14 cents. A share of Netflix was $121.11.

See Video / G5

ADAPT, OR CLOSE ABOVE: Like other Hollywood Videos, the Bend store at Southeast Third Street and Reed Market Road began liquidating its merchandise earlier this year. Another national brand, Blockbuster, has invested in video rental kiosks, including in Central Oregon.

BELOW: The recently closed Sisters Video sits empty. Owner Kate O’Hern, who owned the store for six years, said three rental stores for Sisters was too many. (Sisters also has Sun Buster Video and Ray’s Food Place.) But the low cost of Netflix also was hard to compete with, O’Hern said. “I’m really bummed. In the old days, the video store used to be a social gathering,” she said. “A lot of the computer stuff takes all the social stuff out of it. It may be more convenient, but it’s definitely not more fun.”

Petite portions?

Question marks surround Yup, that’s the BP’s future in the Gulf new fast food AFTER THE OIL SPILL

By Brett Clanton Houston Chronicle

By Jenn Abelson The Boston Globe

Here’s one habit restaurants embraced during the recession: grazing.

The number of menu items listed as snacks jumped 185 percent between 2007 “and 2010, and items described as mini” soared almost 400 percent, according to new research from Mintel, a Chicago firm. McDonald’s is pushing its snack wraps; meanwhile, numerous restaurants across the country have added sliders, or miniburgers, to their menus.

Before the recession hit, restaurants had begun adding small meals as a way to drive traffic during off-peak hours and cater to consumers’ on-the-go lifestyles.

But the economic downturn and sharp drop in consumer spending made snacks a centerpiece of menus. And smaller portions meant downsized prices.

“Snacks became more of a way for restaurants to attract consumers with lowpriced food options, just to help sustain their business,” said Eric Giandelone, director of food-service research at Mintel.

“Certainly, the popularity of the dollar menu bears just how price-sensitive restaurants have become.”

See Food / G5

Even after the oil is cleaned up, BP could have its work cut out for it in the Gulf of Mexico.

Indeed, it could take years for the oil giant to regain the confidence of regulators, politicians and potential business partners in the region.

“I would think their prospects in the Gulf of Mexico are not going to be that bright for some period of time,” said William Arnold, professor of energy management at Rice University in Houston.

While BP says it expects the region to remain a strategic stronghold long after the spill, analysts said BP could sell or trade pieces of the company’s vast and valuable Gulf portfolio if spill costs continue to rise and political pressures mount. But BP suggests U.S. properties, about a quarter of the company’s global oil and natural gas output, shouldn’t figure much into announced plans to sell billions in “non-core” company assets.

See BP / G3

Sang Tan / The Associated Press

A London newspaper’s headline from Friday announces that BP has tentatively stopped the oil leak in the Gulf of Mexico. But there is no end in sight to cleaning the oil already in the water and on shore. Somewhere between 94 million and 184 million gallons spilled into the Gulf, according to government estimates Friday.

“I would think their prospects in the Gulf of Mexico are not going to be that bright for some period of time.”

— William Arnold, professor of energy management at Rice University

Grateful for flights, and more R

edmond Airport’s commercial air service has held up reasonably well considering the beating Central Oregon’s economy has taken in this recession. That’s a testament to the area’s appeal as a tourist destination and also seems to reflect a consistent level of business traffic to and from the High Desert.

While Horizon Air is eliminating its daily flight to Los Angeles next month, United Express is adding a third daily nonstop to San Francisco in November. And let’s not forget the daily service to Denver added last year, a fantastic alternative to Salt Lake City for eastbound connections.

San Francisco is an important link to the thriving Bay Area economy to which so many telecommuters and others here are attached at the hip. A third flight there also provides another connecting option to LA for those who aren’t traveling through places like Portland first.

Keeping and attracting service doesn’t come without a lot of behind-the-scenes work, though, said Roger Lee, executive director of Economic Development for Central Oregon, who likes to caution listeners of the “use-it-or-lose-it” maxim in the airline industry.

Fortunately, we’re using Redmond Airport a little more this year than last.

Through June, the number of passengers getting on and off planes rose 2.4 and 1.5 percent, respectively, from the same period last year. The gains are measured against a turbulent 2009, when totals slumped 6 and 5.2 percent, respectively, from 2008. But to see any passenger growth this year is encouraging.

••• I’ve supported tourism officials’ push to attract sporting events to Bend, such as national bicycling and running races, because they’re a great way to inject new money into town. They draw competitors, their families and sponsors and introduce the region to people who might not otherwise have visited. They also seem a good fit with Bend’s personality. Bend has the trails, etc., and a fitness-focused population that reflects the competitors, which makes Bend a good host on all fronts.

Bend’s fitness infatuation is evident in findings by DRC Research, which has offices in Bend and Salem. DRC, in a sample of 438 Bend homes, found 76 percent of respondents regularly participate in fitness activity versus about 30 percent nationally. For people under 45, the number jumps to 83 percent. And in northwest Bend, it’s 88 percent. Those with household incomes over $100,000 saw a 91 percent rate of fitness activity.

Another interesting stat: 32 percent of households are members of a health and fitness club versus about 17 percent of the U.S. population, according to DRC. What’s all this say? We’re fitness junkies, for one, and a place where sporting events should feel right at home. And who can’t appreciate the events’ business, even if it means road closures and other temporary inconveniences?

••• Whenever I drive by the Old Mill District, I marvel at its landscaping — the green, well-manicured grass and brilliant flowers. It’s hard to beat the district’s efforts on such a large scale. While it’s clearly in the Old Mill’s interest to look its best, it’s also a nice visual benefit for locals and visitors.

So who does all that work? Millsite Management Co. Its landscape superintendent, Mike Bjorvik, has about 20 people care for the 240-acre grounds bounded by Bond Street, Shevlin-Hixon Road, the Colorado Avenue bridge, Columbia Street, Reed Market Road roundabout and Wilson Avenue overpass, which also incorporates many of the offices in the district. A sophisticated watering system controls irrigation, linking 44 controllers to one computer.

••• Hard hats off to Bend’s Hooker Creek Cos. for stickers I’ve noticed on its vehicles: “Hooker Creek Cos. obey school zone speed limits.” Too bad more companies and individuals don’t. When school’s in, I regularly see business and personal vehicles blow through the school zone near The Bulletin at twice the 20 mph limit. Others ride my bumper in frustration for obeying the neon signs. Speeding occurs because enforcement is practically nonexistent. Thanks to Hooker Creek for doing the right thing. Kids and parents appreciate it.

End of the census and, for many, of a job

By Michael Powell New York Times News Service

PROVIDENCE, R.I. — It was a finely honed machine, this U.S. Census team, and it had a good run. But in the coming weeks, many of its members will experience the pain of unemployment again.

Christine Egan, a 31-year-old massage therapist, says her Census job offered shelter from the economic storm last year. “The economy was terrible; there was nothing,� she says. “I’ve already gone through ‘horrific,’ so I’m immunized.� She smiles, optimism almost extending to her eyes. “It must be better now, right?�

When the Census Bureau hired upward of 700,000 Americans over the past two years — most in the past six months — it landed more experienced workers with more sophisticated skills than any time in recent memory. This was the upside of the nastiest recession of the past 70 years.

Now, its decennial work largely done, the Census Bureau is shedding hundreds of thousands of workers — about 225,000 in just the last few weeks, enough to account for a jolt in the unemployment rate, federal economists say. Most of those remaining will be gone by August; a few will last into September.

In past decades, the bureau faced a challenge just keeping workers around to close up shop, as most dashed for new jobs that might pay better. Not this time around. Jobs remain scarce.

In the past few months, the Census Bureau has been shedding workers by the hundreds of thousands, enough to account for a jot or two in the unemployment rate, federal economists say.

As temporary Census jobs evaporated and the private sector added just 83,000 workers, 125,000 jobs were lost in June. +400,000

employment rate stands at 12.3 percent, higher than a year ago.

The national rate, too, has not budged.

As most Census workers have nowhere to go, rushed farewells are rare. Self-reflection, and a touch of anxiety, mark the mood. “Typically at this point in the process, we’re losing a lot of people because they’re taking jobs,� said Kathleen Ludgate, the regional director in Boston. “I wish we had that problem now.�

Ludgate receives notes from departing workers, some by email, others in ink. They thank her for the chance to learn something about themselves and their country. They write to say their confidence had picked up, that they can again meet the gaze of

“Typically at this point in the process, we’re losing a lot of people because they’re taking jobs. I wish we had that problem now.� — Kathleen Ludgate, with the Census Bureau’s Boston office friends and neighbors.

These are the missives of hardworking people who found themselves in a tighter spot than they ever expected and who came to view census work as a lifeline.

Bureaucratic quirks make life in this recession a nerve-racking ride. Many departing Census workers will be eligible for unemployment, although by no means all of them.

Some Census employees, particularly those who knocked on

doors — known as enumerators — worked in fits and starts. They were dispatched intensively, then laid off, then rehired. Unemployment rules are a crazy quilt, with no two states quite the same. “If a worker was in the last tier of long-term unemployment, they might not be able to go back to unemployment,� said Andrew Stettner, deputy director of the National Employment Law Project. “They may have been better off not taking this job.�

What’s left of the Providence team works out of a ground-floor office that overlooks a cemetery, and on a recent morning workers checked tallies and researched vacant buildings. Bob Hamilton, the director, introduced his staff.

Egan, the massage therapist with a degree in history from the University of Rhode Island, was his assistant field manager. Vada Seccareccia, an architect with an undergraduate degree from Bryn Mawr College, is his payroll manager. And the soft-spoken young mother who oversees the clerks? Yasmin Mercedes has years of retail experience and, if

she can’t find work, plans to go to college this fall. “You look for people who had certain skills in a previous life,�

Hamilton says. “It’s not hard to find them, not with this God-awful economy.�

Wages vary by regional cost of living and responsibilities. A Census worker might get $17 an hour in Providence, $23 in Boston or $12.25 in Jackson, Miss.

Hamilton has only to look at his Red Sox calendar to see the days ticking down. He would like to find a job back in retail management. He has a sneaking suspicion that his age — he’s 59 — works against him. “That’s my goal,� he says. “Whether I get there or not is something else.�

Every member of his team sounds reshaped, by their experience and by the recessionary storm howling outside.

Egan smiles and says she knows she can survive. When she was jobless and counted quarters to pay for groceries, she took a job as a boat deckhand and a bartender. She does not want to go back to giving massages full time, though; she found she is a natural at motivating people.

So she has polished her rĂŠsumĂŠ. “We all understand, if you have another opportunity, take it,â€? she says, more cheerfully than you might expect. “We’re on a sinking ship.â€?

Hamilton walks a visitor to the door. He turns and looks at his domain, and says, mostly to himself: “You could start a hell of a business with these folks.�

The financial overhaul legislation “will help restore the great strength of the American financial system,” Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner told reporters last week shortly after the bill was approved.

Geithner gains clout after OK’d finance bill

By David Cho The Washington Post

The dramatic expansion of financial regulation approved

by Congress last week bears the stamp of no one more than Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner and gives him vast powers to determine the final form of the new rules.

Half a year after some pundits were predicting he would be booted from the Obama administration for poor performance, Geithner is poised to inherit authority to shape bank regulations, financial market oversight and a new consumer protection agency.

Few treasury secretaries have ever had such sweeping influence over such a wide realm.

The bill not only hews closely to the initial draft Geithner released last summer, but also anoints him — as long as he remains treasury secretary — as the chief of a new council of senior regulators. The legislation also puts him at the head of the new consumer bureau until a director is confirmed by the Senate, allowing Geithner to mold the watchdog in coming months. And it will be up to him to settle a raft of issues left unresolved by the bill — for instance, which derivatives will be subject to the tough new trading rules and which risky activities big banks will be required to spin off.

Dramatic turnaround It has been a remarkable turnaround for the 48-year-old Treasury Secretary, who had to endure repeated calls for his head from lawmakers a few months ago. Anger over the Treasury’s bailout of troubled banks was high. The unemployment rate was soaring. In a January interview, Geithner called the hubbub over his job security “a price of this office.”

In the wake of the bill’s passage, there is recognition within the administration as well as on Capitol Hill that Geithner is not going anywhere anytime soon. White House officials said the speculation earlier this year about his tenure misunderstood his standing within the administration.

The campaign to win passage of the financial regulatory bill has been driven primarily by the Treasury, showing that Geithner has gained significant latitude within the administration.

Geithner has not won every battle over the legislation. Notable losses include measures added by lawmakers that would exempt auto dealers and banks with less than $10 billion in assets from new consumer protection rules. These firms represent a significant proportion of the financial industry.

But the bill broadly reflects Geithner’s faith in regulators and his overriding belief that large financial companies can be protected from financial upheaval if they set aside large enough capital reserves.

Some Treasury officials sought to play down the influence Geithner will have. One of his aides said the bill merely details the authority that treasuries secretaries could exercise during a crisis — powers that Geithner’s predecessor, Henry Paulson, largely made up on the fly as the financial world teetered in 2008. “It essentially enshrines their ability to handle this stuff,” the official said. “In the middle of a crisis, now you have real, defined responsibilities.”

But government analysts say the bill greatly enhances the Treasury secretary’s role within government.

Continued from G1 “We shouldn’t rule anything out, and there may be people that come and have great proposals for us. But the focus right now is on international assets,” said Bob Dudley, the new leader of BP’s spill response, in an interview July 9, just before the oil giant launched its latest attempt to cap the well, which was holding steady Friday morning.

That could be good news for Houston, which is home to London-based BP’s U.S. headquarters and more than 5,000 of its employees. But nothing is certain until it is clear that oil has stopped gushing into the Gulf for good, or until the mess is cleared up.

“I don’t think they’re going to have to fire-sale any assets,” said Loretta Cross, a managing partner in Grant Thornton’s corporate advisory and restructuring services group in Houston. “I think they’re just in the process of assessing where they want to strategically be after this.”

BP has said it will include a range of assets that are not key to its long-term success. And given the high commodity price environment and interest in some of the properties, Dudley said, it’s possible BP could sell more than $10 billion in assets.

In a recent report, however, analysts at Weeden & Co. explored the idea of BP cutting its losses and exiting North America altogether. Such a move could raise up to $90 billion that could be reinvested elsewhere to replace lost reserves, the firm said.

But Dudley said that is not an option. “BP is going to remain committed to doing business in North America and hopes it will emerge from this strong in the United States,” he said. “We’ve got a lot to do to make up for it.”

Is the unemployment safety net in the U.S. too big to fail? While Congress has tried to inject the fear of failure back into banking with its financial reform bill, some lawmakers this week would like to continue reducing the financial risk of failure in the job market.

Extended unemployment insurance paid by the federal government expired in June. Since then, an estimated 2.5 million Americans have stopped getting weekly checks. Millions more risk losing their unemployment benefits as the American job market limps along. The Senate may vote on the extra benefits this week. Another extension is estimated to cost $34 billion.

The real cost would be higher because the money would be borrowed. Supporters of the extension call it insurance, arguing the money gets spent, recycled back into the economy fast. They say the dollars given to the unemployed turn up in the cash registers and payrolls of others. Dissenters argue the longer-term cost of borrowing the money (and having to pay it back) mutes any immediate impact. In addition, they claim another extension to jobless benefits discourages people from taking any job to get a paycheck because Uncle Sam’s check is coming.

If fear of failure is a cornerstone upon which to rebuild a more secure financial system, is the elimination of it necessary to restart the economy?

The average weekly check for unemployment is about $300.

That’s less than $16,000 per year.

But Congress is being forced to decide, if fear of failure is a cornerstone upon which to rebuild a more secure financial system, is the elimination of it necessary to restart the economy?

C OV ER S T OR I ES “It’s not the box and it’s not the mail that ends up hurting. It’s the people who actually use it and don’t think about the impact it has on a community.”

Continued from G1 Georgia-based NCR Corp., a company that also owns DVDPlay and builds other automated technology services like ATMs, owns and operates the Blockbuster Express kiosks and pays Blockbuster a certain amount based on licensing agreements between the companies, said NCR spokesman Jeff Dudash.

The Blockbuster kiosks, including the new ones in Central Oregon, are equipped to take the next step in video rentals, Dudash said. Though they currently have dozens of DVDs stacked in them for rent, the 4,000 Blockbuster kiosks deployed around the U.S. are already programmed to rent digital movies, which would be downloaded onto USB or SD cards. (Many smart phones have SD cards in them that are used for data storage.)

That type of digital download is where the rental market seems to be headed, said Justin Patterson, a senior analyst at Morgan Keegan & Co. Equity Research in Nashville, Tenn., who studies Internet and e-commerce, specifically Netflix. Coinstar, a self-service kiosk that turns change to cash, owns Redbox and has considered going the way of digital downloads but hasn’t set in motion specific plans, Patterson said.

Netflix has gobbled up large portions of the marketplace with its cheap mail-order DVD service that also allows consumers to stream unlimited movies and television shows through its website, Patterson said.

“It all comes down to, how long are (film) studios going to support DVD and Blu-ray?” Patterson said.

Patterson estimated that DVDs could be defunct in larger cities by the late 2020s or early 2030s.

“It’s all a question of when that final domino drops, if you will,” he said. “I’m sure there will be local video stores for a very long time.”

Local impact But the loss of actual DVDs to rent or sell, and the transition to automated kiosks or digital downloads, translates to a loss of human interaction.

Sisters Video had its last day of business two weeks ago today.

Owner Kate O’Hern said people don’t spend as much money on DVD or VHS rentals as they used to, and she wasn’t able to earn enough to stay open. Whereas people once rented four or five $3 new releases on a Friday night, now people consider anything more than $1 expensive, O’Hern said.

“I’m really bummed. In the old days, the video store used to be a social gathering,” O’Hern said. “A lot of the computer stuff takes all the social stuff out of it. It may be more convenient, but it’s definitely not more fun.”

There are other locally owned video stores still operating in Central Oregon.

Ethanol industry fights to save incentives

from her store, Flic World Video in La Pine, than to pay for the gas to drive to Bend to rent from a Redbox.

Shop Smart in La Pine rents videos. Ray’s Food Place stores in Bend, Prineville and Redmond and Sisters also rent them.

Kim Atkinson’s family has owned Video Hut in Prineville for 15 years and said it still has a strong customer base. She said kiosks and Netflix have hurt her business but doesn’t blame them for it.

“It’s not the box and it’s not the mail that ends up hurting,” Atkinson said. “It’s the people who actually use it and don’t think about the impact it has on a community.”

She thinks major movie studios are realizing that small-town stores could close and referred to agreements that some studios made with Netflix and Redbox that prevent those companies from receiving the newest movie releases until 28 days after they come out on DVD. Having first access to the new releases has helped business, she said.

It’s not necessarily altruism toward local video stores that made studios, Netflix and Redbox sign those deals, though. Patterson, the analyst, said Netflix, for one, gets better supplies of DVDs at a lower cost as well as the right to stream more content online.

As for the studios, it helps them keep the value of movies up by preventing Netflix and Redbox, which offer movies for the cheapest prices, from becoming too dominant in the rental market, Patterson said.

“What studios are hoping is that because of that delay window, more consumers will go buy the DVD or rent from Blockbuster or video on demand,” thus keeping movie prices higher, he said.

Blockbuster’s push Ken and Debbie Tisher are hoping for that same thing, but not to keep prices high. The Tishers, not Blockbuster Inc., own the four Blockbuster locations in Bend and one in Redmond.

As of January, 493 of the 4,018 U.S. Blockbuster locations, or 12 percent, were franchises.

Profits from the Bend and Redmond stores stay local, said Ken Tisher, who operates independently from Blockbuster Inc., aside from royalty fees he pays and certain other contractual obligations. The Tishers started as Pacific Video in 1990 but converted to Blockbuster in 2000 because of the brand recognition.

He employs between 50 and 60 people among the five locations, he said.

Though business “could be better,” Tisher said he isn’t too worried about the competition and change coming because of kiosks — including the ones with Blockbuster’s name.

“It’s changing, it’s evolving.

We’ve had 20 great years,” Tisher said. “We’re going to have to change with the times.”

WASHINGTON — The oncepopular ethanol industry is scrambling to hold onto billions of dollars in government subsidies, fighting an increasing public skepticism of the corn-based fuel and wariness from lawmakers who may divert the money to other priorities.

The industry itself can’t agree on how to persuade Congress to keep the subsidies, which now come in the form of tax credits worth about $6 billion annually.

One industry group, Growth Energy, made the bold move Thursday of calling for the tax credits to be phased out completely in favor of spending the money on more flex-fuel cars and gasoline pumps that support ethanol. A rival group, the Renewable Fuels Association, said it’s too late in the year to make such proposals — the tax credits expire at the end of the year, and legislative days are numbered.

As the industry bickers over what to do, Congress is signaling it’s growing tired of paying for ethanol. The House Ways and Means Committee is considering slashing the tax credit by 9 cents a gallon, to 36 cents, when it looks at a wide range of energy tax credits as early as next week. That would be the second cut in the credit in as many years.

A key senator also expressed skepticism last week. Democratic Sen. Jeff Bingaman of New Mexico, chairman of the Energy and Natural Resources Committee and a longtime supporter of renewable fuels, said

Purveyors of corn-based ethanol are struggling to persuade Congress to continue issuing government subsidies, which now come in the form of tax credits worth about $6 billion annually.

Congress should “weigh all factors, including the credit’s very high cost to taxpayers,” when looking to extend the credit. Bingaman noted that the ethanol industry is protected by congressional mandates for its use.

Some supporters say they see the writing on the wall.

“The longer we have this support structure in place for ethanol, the more people begin to question it,” said Roger Johnson, president of the National Farmers Union, which supports Growth Energy’s plan. He says a new approach is needed as the public becomes more skeptical.

The tax credits still have strong supporters on Capitol Hill and in the Obama administration. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack says the administration remains committed to tax incentives supporting biofuels like

ethanol. Rep. Earl Pomeroy, DN.D., a member of the Ways and Means Committee, is leading the fight in the House to keep the tax credits.

Pomeroy says that the 9 cent cut is a good starting point and that he feels optimistic after discussing the issue with fellow committee members and members of the ethanol industry last week.

He acknowledges that the legislative environment is challenging and says that a simple extension of the credit makes the most sense in the House. “Late in the legislative session, simpler is easier,” he said.

Iowa Sen. Charles Grassley, the top Republican on the Finance Committee that will consider the tax, said he is also working to get it extended. He noted that the lapse of a tax credit for makers of biodiesel has al-

Weekly Arts & Entertainment

Food Continued from G1 D’Angelo Sandwich Shop realized last year it needed a cheap snack option after seeing rivals roll out dollar tacos and other value deals. Using tortillas the shops already had in the stores for wraps, the New England chain created a quesadilla in three different varieties. This limited-time offer was intended to last 12 weeks, but the huge popularity made it a permanent item on the menu, according to Michael McManama, senior vice president of brand development for D’Angelo and its sister chain, Papa Gino’s. The No. 9 Quesadilla (a steak and cheese combination) costs about $3 and is about half the size of the No. 9 sandwich for $6.

“It exceeded expectations by 25 percent,” McManama said.

“It’s convenience, taste, and value.”

Julia Williams, of Dorchester, Mass., is one of the snack converts at D’Angelo. Almost twice a week, she picks up the quesadillas for lunch, instead of

a sandwich combination.

“It’s quick, good value, and cheaper than a sandwich,” Williams said. “And it seems lighter and healthier than bread.”

While some consumers prefer snacking throughout the day to eating three sit-down meals, others purchase snacks as a way to eat smaller, healthier portions.

At McDonald’s, Jody Cullinam seeks out the Chipotle BBQ snack wrap that features crispy chicken topped with chipotle BBQ sauce and wrapped in a flour tortilla.

“It just seems better for you and lighter than a cheeseburger,” Cullinam said. (Of course, there’s also a Big Mac snack wrap for meat lovers.)

In addition to expanding its snacking fare, McDonald’s earlier this year unveiled a new a dollar breakfast menu to provide more value options, including a sausage biscuit and hash browns. And last week, McDonald’s rolled out its latest snack option — smoothies.

“We try to offer everyday affordability,” said Danya Proud, a McDonald’s spokeswoman.

LAND MOWING FIRE SUPPRESSION

Retail analysts expect the snacking movement to continue to grow, even as the economy recovers. And there is opportunity across all segments, from quick service to fine dining, to add innovation to menus with snacking options and boost sales, according to Giandelone, of Mintel.

“With a stronger economy, there is often more disposable personal income that consumers can spend at restaurants not only for meal occasions but also for actual snacking,” he said.

ready hurt that industry.

Ethanol producers say expiration of the tax credits, which are paid to oil companies as an incentive to blend gasoline with ethanol, could mean the loss of almost 40 percent of its plants and tougher times for a domestic fuel that is good for national security.

Critics say the industry should stand on its own after receiving subsidies for 30 years and argue the tax credits are a waste of taxpayer dollars. A diverse coalition of groups has argued over the past few years that the increase in production of corn and its diversion for ethanol is making animal feed more expensive, raising prices at the grocery store and tearing up the land.

Craig Cox of the Environmental Working Group, one of the organizations opposing the fuel, says he thinks the industry “hit a wall” in Congress as concern over budget deficits have increased.

Growth Energy, a group formed in 2008 as some ethanol companies grew worried that their political clout was waning, said it is proposing the phase-out as a way to think more creatively about boosting the industry and the fuel. The group says ethanol helps reduce the nation’s dependence on foreign oil, pointing to the Gulf oil spill as a reason to turn to the corn-based alternative.

The industry was also frustrated last month by a delay by the Environmental Protection Agency in deciding whether U.S. car engines can handle higher concentrations of ethanol in gasoline.

But the increase in the maximum blend is expected to be approved later this year.

Right car, but at the right time?

By Warren Brown

and threatened by rising fuel prices.

Many people gave the Fiesta favorable nods during my drive week. But many others gave it the boot. “It’s too small,” the detractors said. Others called it a “girlie car.”

And still others, with oil gushing into the Gulf of Mexico and gasoline prices inching upward, commented: “It doesn’t have enough power.”

Special to The Washington Post

It is the motorized equivalent of a good pair of jeans — wellsewn, good fit, comfortable, durable and affordable. That’s why Ford has sold more than 12 million Fiestas worldwide since 1976. It is the first car many people want to slip into when they have to go somewhere.

In Europe, Asia, South America and South Africa, that makes perfectly good s en s e.

R E V I E W Many European and Asian streets are narrow. Parking space is at a premium. The Fiesta is a subcompact that moves well through narrow passages and fits easily into tight parking spaces. You feel confident driving it in congested environments.

I’ve been in Fiestas all over the world, even in Kazakhstan, where my Russian hosts ferried me around the little town of Balkash. They were well-educated but economically struggling people trying to make ends meet. Their tan, late-1980s Fiesta served their purposes. “It works, and when it breaks, it’s easy to fix,” the husband of the household said.

Functional humility has value where the ability to function, simply to get from one place to another, can mean the difference between work or no work, food or hunger, fun or another day of life in a drab apartment complex. For millions of people worldwide, the little Fiesta has been that difference.

But that hasn’t been the case in the United States. The Fiesta was last sold here in 1980, rejected by consumers as too small and too cheaply made to compete.

Ford now believes that time and circumstance, combined with advances in small-car design and engineering, have

The bottom line Ford via The Washington Post

The 2011 Ford Fiesta is more aerodynamically designed and more attractive than its square-faced predecessors. The interior is well-assembled, ergonomically sensible, and designed to handle iPods, laptops and practically all other electronic equipment available.

2011 Ford Fiesta SE Base price: $15,120 As tested: $15,975 Type: Front-engine, frontwheel-drive subcompact economy car available as a sedan or hatchback Engine: 1.6-liter, 16-valve (variable valve timing) in-line four-cylinder engine; fivespeed manual transmission comes standard Mileage: 29 mpg city, 38 mpg highway

changed that reality, and it is reintroducing the Fiesta to the domestic market. It’s a risky move, as indicated by empirical observations gathered from my Washington-Baltimore week in a “red candy metallic clear-coat” 2011 Ford Fiesta SE hatchback.

Here’s the deal: In the late 1970s, when car companies worldwide were scurrying to respond to fuel shortages and rising fuel prices, Ford and General Motors responded by tapping their European subsidiaries

for loss-leader versions of their subcompact automobiles. Ford of Europe contributed the Fiesta (and later the Escort). Opel, GM’s European subsidiary, gave us the Kadett.

Both cars were treated as throwaway products by Ford and GM dealers. Customers who bought them (me included, with the Kadett) responded accordingly — buying them as low-cost, ultimately expendable wheels.

In the case of the Fiesta, it’s going to be a challenge to remove that experience from U.S. consumer memory. And it hardly matters, apparently, that the new Fiesta is far superior to the circa-1980 version.

The new Fiesta certainly is more aerodynamically designed and more attractive than its square-faced predecessors. The interior in the SE hatchback driven for this column is stoically simple in presentation. But it’s well-assembled, ergonomically sensible, and designed to handle iPods, iPads, laptops and practically all other electronic equipment available.

In the case of most subcompact economy cars, it’s oxymoronic to speak of performance and handling. But it’s OK to do so with the 2011 Fiesta. This car actually is fun to drive.

Steering is effortless, precise.

The standard five-speed gearbox shifts smoothly. The 1.6-liter inline four-cylinder gasoline engine (119 horsepower, 109 footpounds of torque) won’t garner praise from racing enthusiasts.

But it runs well enough for the city and, driven with common sense (right lane, middle lane — left lane only when needed), does nicely on the highway, too.

Overall fit and finish are excellent. Fuel economy is good, at 28 miles per gallon in the city and 37 on the highway. And the Fiesta runs well with regular gasoline. Thus, it seems that the new Fiesta should be a winner in a troubled U.S. economy aggravated by energy problems.

But a U.S. consumer reared on cheap gasoline and a biggeris-better mentality remains a dangerous thing, even in a retail market whacked by the highest unemployment rate in decades

The Fiesta is a welcome and worthy addition to the U.S. subcompact-car market. But it remains to be seen whether it and its rivals — models such as the Honda Fit, Nissan Versa and Toyota Yaris — will be here for generations, or only until Americans reacquaint themselves with optimism and the belief in endless economic growth and cheap oil.

Ride, acceleration and handling: The Fiesta is a joy in city traffic. It’s tight, agile. It rides well on poorly maintained streets (MacPherson strut suspension up front, twist beam in the rear).

Acceleration is more than good enough for the city, adequate on the highway.

Head-turning quotient: It’s cute (some translate that as “girlie”).

Capacities: Seats for five. Luggage capacity with rear seats up is 15.4 cubic feet. With rear seats down, luggage capacity is 26 cubic feet, still below that of rivals such as the Honda Fit. The fuel tank holds 12 gallons; regular gasoline is recommended.

Safety: Front disc and rear drum brakes are standard and more than adequate, though I would prefer four-wheel discs.

Other standard equipment includes four-wheel anti-lock brake protection, side and head air bags, and electronic stability and traction control.

Old tires could cause shudder during braking

By Paul Brand (Minneapolis) Star Tribune

Q:

When I’m braking normally, the steering wheel on my 2006 Toyota Corolla with 31,000 miles starts to shudder. There is no vibration in the brake pedal, and there is no pulling to either side. The car stops normally. I notice it when the afternoon temps started to climb, but not in the cooler mornings. What could the problem be?

There are several potential explanations. A sticking brake caliper slider or piston can cause the friction material to overheat, leading to inconsistent braking. Look for a bluish discoloration on the rotor surface.

Worn, loose or damaged steering components such as a tie-rod end, rack or rack mounts can cause this shuddering as well.

And don’t forget the tires. Your 5-year-old tires with 31,000 miles on them may have developed an internal belt fracture or shift, or some type of strange wear pattern. Rotate the front tires to the rear to see if it affects the shudder.
