Bend-La Pine student influx leads to hires

When school started on Sept. 7, more students came through Bend-La Pine Schools doors than expected.

As a result, the district has hired several new teachers to deal with the influx of students, and administrators wonder if another growth spurt “People were is beginning.

Recall votes a growing hazard facing mayors

By Michael Cooper New York Times News Service

The throw-the-rascals-out mood is so strong these days that some voters are not even waiting until Election Day — they are mounting recall campaigns to oust mayors in the middle of their terms, often as punishment for taking unpopular steps like raising taxes or laying off workers to keep their cities solvent.

Daniel Varela Sr., the rookie mayor of Livingston, Calif., learned this the hard way when he was booted from office last month in a landslide recall election. His crime? He had the temerity to push through the small city’s first water-rate increase in more than a decade to try to fix its aging water system, which he said spewed brownish, smelly water from rusty pipes.

“We were trying to be responsible,” said Varela, whose action set off a lawsuit in addition to his recall as mayor of Livingston, which is in the Central Valley. “But as soon as the rates started to kick in, people who weren’t paying attention were suddenly irate.”

ELECTION

Past attempts to recall mayors With irate voters in plentiful supply, recall campaigns have become a growing job hazard for mayors. Over the past two years, failed recall campaigns have sought the ouster of mayors in Akron, Ohio; Chattanooga, Tenn.; Flint, Mich.; Kansas City, Mo.; Portland, Ore.; and Toledo, Ohio, among other cities. Next month the voters of North Pole, Alaska, 140 miles south of the Arctic Circle, will vote on whether to recall their mayor.

Recalls rarely get on the ballot, let alone succeed, but they are bringing the era of permanent, acrimonious campaigning to city halls. Tom Cochran, the executive director of the U.S. Conference of Mayors, said that the rash of recent attempts had inspired him to start making a video to teach mayors about the risk of recall.

A helicopter raises a car out of Crater Lake below the North Junction Scenic Overlook on Wednesday morning. The car had rolled into the lake on Sept. 11.

A

heavy lift helicopter recovered a car on Wednesday that rolled into Crater Lake nearly two weeks ago, hoisting the crumpled remains out of the water.

On Sept. 11, Ashland residents Tobias Swanson and Shauna McHugh parked McHugh’s 2003 Volkswagen Passat at the North Junction Scenic Overlook, about a mile north of Wizard Island on the west shore of the lake, leaving their dog Haley in the car.

The vehicle rolled out of the parking lot and over the edge, falling 1,100 feet to the water.

Haley was ejected from the car and climbed 600 feet back to Swanson and McHugh.

It’s the first time a car has ended up in the lake since 1922, when a new Lincoln owned by a Klamath Falls couple rolled in near the Rim Village. The Lincoln is still in the water.

Vol. 107, No. 266, 44 pages, 7 sections

For millions of addicts around the world, Alcoholics Anonymous’s basic text — informally known as the Big Book — is the Bible. And as they’re about to find out, the Bible was edited.

After being hidden away for nearly 70 years and then auctioned twice, the original manuscript

by AA co-founder Bill Wilson is about to become public for the first time next week, complete with edits by Wilson-picked commenters that reveal a profound debate in 1939 about how overtly to talk about God. The group’s decision to use “higher power” and “God of your understanding” instead of “God” or “Jesus Christ” and to adopt a more inclusive tone was enormously important in making the deeply spiritual text accessible to the non-religious and non-Christian, AA historians and treatment experts say.

The editors softened Step 7 of AA’s renowned 12 Steps for example, by deleting a phrase that evoked church worship. “Humbly, on our knees, asked Him to remove our shortcomings — holding nothing back,” became “Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings.”

In the first chapter, a sentence that read “God has to work twenty-four hours a day in and through us, or we perish,” was edited to replace “God” with “faith,” and a question was added: “Who are we to say what God has to do?”

In the years since the Big Book was first published, AA’s 12-step program has been adopted by millions of people battling a wide range of addictions, from drugs to food to sex to e-mail. It has been embraced by the authorities in the Islamic republic of Iran and the former Soviet Union and retooled by groups ranging from Chabad (for Jews) to Rick Warren’s Celebrate Recovery (for evangelical Christians).

SINGAPORE — Yale University is considering setting up a liberal arts college under a proposal by the National University of Singapore as the Southeast Asian nation seeks to benefit from the U.S. school’s brand name.

Expenses to establish and operate the proposed Yale-NUS College will be borne by NUS and Singapore’s government at no cost to Yale, the New Haven, Conn.-based university said in a statement on its website. The two sides signed a non-binding memorandum of understanding on Friday for the college, which is intended to open by the fall of 2013 and accommodate “We must be about 1,000 undergrad- confident that uate students initially, Singapore’s it said yesterday.

The school, to be resolved by which would be Yale’s the end of this first foreign campus, will allow the college calendar year or to extend its influence early in 2011.” to Asia, according to a Sept. 12 prospectus — University President sent to faculty.

Richard Levin and “Establishing a new Provost Peter Salovey college bearing Yale’s in statement name in Singapore would be a big step,” University President Richard Levin and Provost Peter Salovey said in the eight-page prospectus. “We must be confident that Singapore’s government is willing to make sufficient investment in the new campus. We expect this issue to be resolved by the end of this calendar year or early in 2011.”

The curriculum of the new college will engage students in the “serious and sustained study of science as well as the humanities and social sciences,” Yale said.

“It is timely to consider introducing liberal arts education in Singapore,” Singapore’s Minister for Education Ng Eng Hen said in the statement. “The government is supportive of NUS’s and Yale’s efforts to develop a liberal arts model that will attract top students, and that is contextualized to Singapore and Asia.”

The college will hire 100 new faculty and be an autonomous school within NUS, with degrees awarded through the Singapore university, Yale said.

NUS invited Yale to consider setting up the college in 2009, according to the statement. Yale faculty would account for half the governing board, and would have authority over curriculum, faculty appointments and admission policies, the prospectus shows.

MIAMI — For the new school year, Ramil Anonuevo got a new backpack on wheels. He borrowed books to get a head start.

And he found a study buddy: his 11-year-old son, Aaron, who joins him at the dinner table.

Anonuevo, 42, just started an accelerated nursing program at Miami-Dade College. In a year, he should have his degree — and a new career.

Adults in their 30s, 40s and older are heading back to the classroom in the hopes of changing career paths. They are sales managers, firefighters, research consultants and journalists. They hope to become nurses, priests, lawyers and teachers.

At Miami-Dade College, one of the nation’s largest institutions, a third of the students are 26 years old or older. Rene Garcia, director of enrollment at college, said there is a link between the economy tanking and people going back to school.

“It’s ‘Gee, I got whacked from my job. Now I have the opportunity to do something else,’” Garcia said.

Hot job areas include nursing and other health programs, business, education and areas within computer technology, Garcia said.

University of Florida economist David Denslow said community colleges in particular see increased enrollment because they can quickly hire faculty to teach

“It’s ‘Gee, I got whacked from my job. Now I have the opportunity to do something else.’”

— Rene Garcia, director of enrollment, Miami-Dade College in-demand fields and offer latenight and weekend programs.

But does going back to school pay off in the long run? That depends on the field.

“If you go back for additional training in literature, it does a lot of good intellectually and personally, but not necessarily financially,” he said. “If it’s in an area like math or technology, science or nursing, those pay off.”

Those areas can yield pay increases on the order of 15 to 20 percent, Denslow said.

Juggling life, school For adult students, there can be unique challenges: juggling family life, working, taking on debt.

“It’s not the same from when I was younger. You have a sharp mind, you can memorize things faster. Now I tell them, ‘Give me more time,’” Annnuevo said. He recently won a scholarship from MDC for students who previously held supervisory positions, have strong GPAs and are retraining for a new profession.

College administrators say

adult students often come with strong determination and wisdom from life experiences.

“It’s easy to find a reason to put off education. If you don’t do it, you’ll just put it off again and again,” said Alex Acosta, dean of Florida International University College of Law. For some students, an extra degree serves several purposes.

Hialeah (Fla.) High teacher Ana Soto, 30, just completed a master’s degree in history and plans to attend law school next year. She said she’s concerned about the specter of legislation that does not compensate teachers for advanced degrees or professional development.

Her goal: “to enhance my teaching of the law at the high school level but also to have a back-up if I decide to leave education.”

Some career changers answer a higher calling — to serve as a priest or spiritual minister. St. John Vianney College Seminary has seen increased enrollment in recent years and is nearly at capacity. Among the 69 students, there are former teachers, journalists and a 47-year-old who worked as an art authenticator. Elkin Sierra, 46, is considering becoming a priest after being a firefighter for 21 years.

The common denominator: “The priesthood is a service-oriented way of life,” said the Very Rev. Roberto Garza, the seminary’s new director.

“You may have different tastes and likes, but we’re here to serve.”

T S Prosecutors allege Bell leaders made efforts to hide large salaries

By Jack Leonard Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — Los Angeles County prosecutors, in records obtained Wednesday by the Los Angeles Times, lay out in the most detail yet the lengths they allege former Bell City Administrator Robert Rizzo went to hide extravagant salaries for himself and other city officials.

The court documents accuse Rizzo of directing an employee to draft false contracts and other records in September 2008 that concealed how much he and council members made.

Then a few months ago, under growing scrutiny of his salary, the city manager asked a subordinate to obtain Mayor Oscar Hernandez’s signature on some of those 2008 contracts, the court filing says. The subordinate pointed out that another council member had been the mayor in 2008.

“Rizzo directed the subordinate to obtain Oscar Hernandez’s signature anyway because Hernandez would be willing to sign,” the documents say. “The subordinate did so.”

The allegations were made in court documents asking a judge to prevent Rizzo and seven other current and former city leaders charged this week from using money improperly taken from Bell to bail themselves out of jail.

Rizzo’s attorney, James Spertus, did not return a call seeking comment on the allegations. But he has repeatedly said that his client is innocent.

The prosecution documents allege that Rizzo used the false 2008 contracts in response to questions about his salary. He allegedly told one citizen who asked whether he was really making $400,000, “If I can make that kind of money, I wouldn’t be working here.”

Prosecutors accused Rizzo of continuing to use the false contracts in recent months amid growing scrutiny of his salary by the district attorney’s office and others.

Sometime after June, one of the false 2008 contracts was given to the city attorney following requests for records of Rizzo’s pay.

The contract listed Rizzo’s salary as $221,460. In reality, Rizzo was on course to make more than $1.5 million in salary and benefits this year.

Army inquiry into McChrystal Court calls article leaves questions open ban on gay FLORIDA

By Thom Shanker New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — An Army inquiry into a Rolling Stone magazine article about Gen. Stanley McChrystal has found that it was not the general or senior officers on his staff who made the most egregious comments that led to his dismissal as the top Afghan commander in June, according to Army and Pentagon officials.

But the review, commissioned after an embarrassing and disruptive

episode, does not wholly resolve who was responsible for the inflammatory quotes, most of which were anonymous.

The Army review has been turned over to a higher-level inquiry by the Pentagon’s inspector general, because the matter involves not only a four-star general but several subordinates outside the Army.

The Army report, which has not been released, points some blame at a mid-level Navy special warfare officer who served as an

PALESTINIAN SECURITY GUARD’S DEATH PROMPTS VIOLENCE

Sebastian Scheiner / The Associated Press

With Israel’s construction freeze on Jewish settlements in the West Bank scheduled to end this weekend, Israeli and Palestinian negotiators were seeking an elusive formula Wednesday to keep their new peace talks going while both sides warned that if the talks ended, violence could erupt.

As if to illustrate that warning, Palestinians clashed with Israeli security forces in and around the Old City of Jerusalem after an Israeli security guard fatally shot a Palestinian resident of Silwan, a hotly contested East Jerusalem neighborhood where a few hundred Jewish settlers live among tens of thousands of Palestinians.

The guard told the police that he had opened fire in self-defense after being ambushed by stone-throwers before dawn. But Palestinians said there were signs that the dead man, Samer Sirhan, 32, had been chased by the guard, and Palestinian spokesmen accused the Israeli settlers of carrying out provocations in order to heat up the atmosphere and divert international attention away from the issue of Israeli settle-

ment construction.

Sirhan, a father of five, was a member of Fatah, the mainstream Palestinian party engaged in the peace talks with Israel.

The Palestinian leadership has said that the 10month building moratorium must be extended for the talks to progress, and that if settlement construction started again next week it would prove that the Israeli government was not serious about making peace.

The government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has responded that such talk is evidence of Palestinian insincerity, saying that the moratorium was a gesture aimed at making it easier for the Palestinians to enter direct talks. Since they waited nine months before taking advantage of it, walking out on the talks now would prove that they were not serious about peace. Efforts by the Obama administration to get Netanyahu to extend the freeze by three months have so far been rejected.

Talks on Iran’s nuclear program may resume soon, officials say

By Paul Richter McClatchy-Tribune News Service

UNITED NATIONS — Six world powers may resume talks with Iran over its disputed nuclear program as early as this fall, officials said Wednesday.

Diplomats from the six nations said after a morning meeting in New York that they had seen several recent signals that Tehran is willing to resume the conversations it broke off almost a year ago.

The diplomats expressed some wariness, however, saying that Iranian officials have ignored

previous approaches from the West and noting that there is deep mistrust between the two sides after years of failed attempts at negotiation.

The diplomats are in New York this week for the U.N. General Assembly meetings.

Officials from the U.S., China, Russia, Britain, France and Germany have been pressuring Iran to curtail its nuclear program, which they believe is aimed at developing a nuclear weapon. Iran says the program is intended only for peaceful purposes, such as pow-

er generation.

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, in New York this week, said Tuesday that he saw a “good chance” for new talks because “there is no other alternative.”

The six nations said in a statement that “our objective continues to be a comprehensive longterm negotiated solution which restores international confidence in the exclusively peaceful nature” of Iran’s nuclear program, while “respecting Iran’s legitimate right to the peaceful use of nuclear energy.”

Study: New treatments may outweigh the value of breast cancer screening

By Gina Kolata New York Times News Service

A new study suggests that increased awareness and improved treatments rather than mammograms are the main force in reducing the breast cancer death rate.

The study, medical experts say, is the first to assess the benefit of mammography in the context of the modern era of breast cancer treatment. While

aide to McChrystal, according to Army, Pentagon and other military officials.

But that officer was never interviewed by the Army’s investigators and so was blamed based on the comments of others. The officer has told Navy officials that he did not make the offending comments, according to Pentagon officials.

The actions or comments of two civilians on the general’s team were criticized by the Army review, officials said.

it is unlikely to settle the debate over mammograms, it indicates that improved treatments with hormonal therapy and other targeted drugs may have, in a way, washed out most of mammography’s benefits by making it less important to find cancers when they are too small to feel.

In the new study, mammograms, combined with modern treatment, reduced the death rate by 10 percent, but the study

data indicated that the effect of mammograms alone could be as low as 2 percent or even zero.

The study, published today in The New England Journal of Medicine, looked at what happened in Norway before and after 1996, when the country began rolling out mammograms for women ages 50 to 69 along with special breast cancer teams to treat all women with breast cancer.

adoptions unlawful

By John Schwartz New York Times News Service

A 30-year-old Florida law that prohibits adoption by gay men and lesbians is unconstitutional, a state appeals court ruled on Wednesday, and the state’s governor said the law would not be enforced pending a decision on whether to appeal the decision.

The decision by Florida’s Third District Court of Appeal said that Florida’s adoption law, which bans adoption by gays while allowing them to be foster parents, had “no rational basis” and thus violated the equal protection clause in the state Constitution. Judge Gerald Cope Jr. wrote the opinion, which affirmed a 2008 decision from a lower court.

At a news conference on Wednesday afternoon, Gov. Charlie Crist applauded the decision, saying: “It’s a very good day for Florida; it’s a great day for children. Children deserve a loving home to be in.” Because the decision applies statewide, he said, “We are going to immedi- Martin Gill, a ately stop enforcing the ban.” gay man, is The state, however, has 30 days trying to adopt to appeal. A spokeswoman for two boys.

Bill McCollum, the state attorney general and a supporter of the adoption ban, said that the office was representing the Department of Children and Families in the case, “and will be in discussions with our client as to whether or not they plan to appeal this ruling.”

A spokesman for the department said: “We are analyzing the court’s opinion and wish to give any decision to appeal a thorough review. The primary consideration on whether to appeal is finding the balance between the value of a final ruling from the Florida Supreme Court versus the impact on the Gill family.”

The case involved the efforts of Martin Gill, a gay man, to adopt two boys he took in more than five years ago as foster children when one was 4 years old and the other 4 months old. They had ringworm at the time, and the younger child had an untreated ear infection. The older boy did not speak for the first month with Gill and his partner.

In a concurring opinion, Judge Vance Salter wrote that the steps taken to heal and raise the boys “are nothing short of heroic.”

Evidence presented at the trial by opponents of the ban found no difference in the well-being of children raised by gay parents versus heterosexual parents.

“It’s a very good day for Florida; it’s a great day for children. Children deserve a loving home to be in.”

HEALTH CARE REFORM

For insurers, the overhaul has arrived cal of the legislation have little choice but to comply. Still, several have chosen to avoid the new rules by ceasing to offer certain policies. In the case of the child-only policies, insurers say the new rules could require them to cover too many sick children and too few healthy ones.

Aetna, for one, says it would be willing to work with government officials to find ways to keep offering the coverage.

“With the right regulatory environment, we would be able to keep plans affordable and continue to offer them,” said Matt Wiggin, an Aetna spokesman.

By Reed Abelson New York Times News Service

The first big wave of new rules under the federal health care law goes into effect today, leaving many insurers scrambling to get ahead of the changes.

Insurers are cutting administrative staff to lower overhead costs, investing in big technology upgrades and training employees to field the expected influx of customer inquiries.

Despite the talk among some Republicans of repealing all or part of the law, insurers say they cannot afford to put off the changes. Many said they were fundamentally altering their business models to cope.

“It is really the Manhattan Project because of the scale and the scope,” said Karen Ignagni, chief executive of America’s Health Insurance Plans, a trade group.

Under the new law, insurers that offer child-only policies must start covering all children, even the seriously ill, beginning today. Insurers must also begin offering free preventive services, and for the first time, their premiums must start passing muster with federal and state regulators by the end of the year.

Companies are choosing to avoid some of the rules by no longer offering certain policies. Aetna, WellPoint and Cigna, for example, have announced that they would stop selling new childonly policies, at least in some states.

Ahead of the regulatory review, some also raised premiums this year.

The coming weeks and months should provide an important test of the legislation — and a dry run of sorts for the more far-reaching changes required by the law in 2014, when insurers will have to offer coverage to everyone and begin selling their plans on state-run exchanges.

Adjusting to the new terrain could push some insurers out of business, health care analysts say. In a setback

Enrollment Continued from A1 Superintendent Ron Wilkinson said many of the new students seem to be coming from out of state.

“The kids are kind of from everywhere,” he said. “I think this summer when we started seeing schools that were a little higher (in enrollment) we thought it was movement within the district. But I think what we’ve seen is that out-migration we were dealing with a year ago, those folks have come back in.”

He pointed to small businesses opening in the area as a sign of new life in the community, and part of the reason more students are attending school here this fall.

“I think this is a good indication that we may have hit the bottom and are climbing back out of the recession locally,” he said.

Human Resources Director Jim Widsteen said when the district saw jumps in enrollment at schools around town, it added five new teachers at the elementary level and the equivalent of four full-time positions at the high school level.

AA Continued from A1 “If it had been a Christianbased book, a religious book, it wouldn’t have succeeded as it has,” said Nick Motu, senior vice president of Hazelden Publishing, the world’s largest purveyor of materials related to addiction.

Hazelden is publishing the 4.5pound, $65 manuscript, titled “The Book That Started It All” (the original was called simply “Alcoholics Anonymous”).

But the crossed-out phrases and scribbles make clear that the words easily could have read differently. And the edits embody a debate that continues today: How should the role of spirituality and religion be handled in addiction treatment?

They also take readers back to an era when churches and society generally stigmatized alcohol addicts as immoral rather than ill.

The AA movement’s reframing of addiction as having a physical component (the “doctor’s opinion” that opens the book calls it “a kind of allergy”) was revolutionary, experts say.

“We didn’t have any knowledge then about the brain. Today we know there is a neurological component; we know there are spiritual, psychological and environmental components,” said Joseph Califano, founder of the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University.

Bruce Bodaken, left, chief executive officer of Blue Shield of California, and Julie Roberts, executive driver, talk about health reform at the companies headquarters in San Francisco. The coming weeks and months are an important test of the new health care legislation and a dry run of sorts for the more far-reaching changes required by the law in 2014. to the bottom line, for example, insurers will no longer be able to pick and choose enrollees to avoid covering people who are likely to run up high medical bills, and many of the markets where they operate will become much less profitable.

‘Struggle and fail’ “A lot of health plans will struggle and fail,” said Jeff Fusile, a health care partner at PricewaterhouseCoopers.

Blue Shield of California, which was an early proponent of requiring insurers to cover everyone, has trained about 2,500 people — nearly half of its work force — about the impact of the new law. About 250 of the employees are leading teams responsible for reprogramming computer systems, determining the cost of new policies and ensuring that the people answering phones have the correct responses to customer questions,

Hiring a new teacher costs the district an average of $75,000 for salary and benefits; Wilkinson said the teachers being hired now are mostly less experienced and probably cost less than $70,000 apiece to employ.

Widsteen said a variety of schools saw enrollment increases, including Ponderosa, Bear Creek and Pine Ridge elementaries and Bend High and La Pine High.

Wilkinson noted the growth is all over the district; while the elementaries in La Pine are slightly below projection, the high school has more students than expected.

Likewise, the number of kindergartners is lower than expected and the number of high school seniors is up.

Part time to full time At the high schools, the new positions were predominantly filled by moving some teachers from part time to full time to balance out large class sizes.

“It’s a little more complicated at the high school because it’s a certain period when you need somebody,” Widsteen said. “A few additional people were hired at the high-school level in some

among other tasks.

“The train has left the station, and we’d much rather be the ones with the engineer’s hat,” said Bruce Bodaken, the chief executive of Blue Shield of California, a nonprofit health plan based in San Francisco.

The challenge for the industry as a whole will be to demonstrate an ability to oversee patient care and work closely with hospitals and doctors to find ways to improve the quality of care while trying to contain costs. To that end, insurers are making big investments in technology systems and new areas of expertise.

Blue Shield says it has already increased its efforts to address the cost and quality of care by exploring new ways to pay doctors and hospitals.

“We’re going to do a lot more innovation and experimentation, failing and succeeding, than we’ve ever been doing before,” Bodaken said.

Even those insurers that were criti-

of the harder-to-find (subject) areas, like Spanish, for instance.”

Applications piled up right away for the open positions, Widsteen said.

“People were glad in these times where days have been reduced. ... It was nice for them to get opportunities like this,” Widsteen said. “It’s nice to be back in the growth.”

Private schools While enrollment in Bend-La Pine Schools is back up, private schools are having mixed experiences.

Julie Roberts, the head teacher at St. Francis School, said her school saw a significant drop in enrollment over the past year.

That may be turning around, though. Roberts said in the past month the school has enrolled 12 new students. St. Francis School offers preschool through eighth grade classes and has about 257 students. Tuition ranges depending on the number of children in the family and what grade the children are in, from $3,150 for preschoolers to $4,570 a year for kindergarten through eighth grade for non-parishioners.

Meanwhile, Cascades Acade-

“If it had been a Christian-based book, a religious book, it wouldn’t have succeeded as it has.”

— Nick Motu, senior vice president, Hazelden Publishing Califano said “virtually every rehabilitation program” in the country today includes a requirement to join an AA group. “The concept of the ‘higher power’ was important because it made the whole spiritual aspect available to Catholics, Jews, others,” he said.

Rehabilitation process has changed While the Big Book describes addiction in a way that was complex for the time, the 71-year-old movement has changed significantly as well. In addition to AA meetings, mainstream treatment today includes psychiatric treatment, group therapy, even nutrition.

And despite objections from some secularists, experts generally believe that “there is a significant spiritual component for the overwhelming majority of people” coming out of addiction to alcohol and drugs, Califano said.

The question was — and is — in what way? The notes in the margins of the manuscript make clear there was disagreement, and even Wilson was torn.

A sometime stock speculator from Vermont who wrestled with depression as well as al-

coholism, Wilson didn’t attend church and had “the classic white flash experience” of a universal spirituality that gave him the strength to become sober, said Sid Farrar, Hazeldon’s editorial director. Later in his life, he experimented briefly with LSD and parapsychology.

“Wilson was divided, too,” on how to talk about God in the Big Book, Farrar said. “But it’s not generally known that there was a debate about religion.”

Much remains unknown about how the manuscript was edited — and by whom. Hazelden said it hasn’t had the resources to analyze the handwriting in the margins. Historians of AA and addiction treatment will not begin analyzing the scribbles and debating who wrote each one until the manuscript is published next week.

Mystery in the margins Motu said Wilson sent his original book to about 300 recovering addicts, religious leaders and doctors, among others, but some think the writing visible in the margins belonged to a small number of commenters.

The Big Book was first pub-

Working with White House The Obama administration says that it is willing to work with the insurers but added that the companies had already promised to continue offering the policies.

“Insurance companies have pledged to offer coverage to children with pre-existing conditions, and we expect them to honor that commitment,” said Jessica Santillo, a spokeswoman for the Department of Health and Human Services.

One of the most critical changes in the coming months will be the final rules dictating how insurers spend their premiums. The federal legislation says that at least 80 cents of every dollar collected in premiums must be spent on the welfare of patients, but the regulations spelling out what qualifies are still being worked out.

Some insurers are acting quickly to make cuts to lower their overhead expenses in anticipation of the new regulations on spending, said Roger Collier, a former health care executive who is now a consultant. Brokers may see their commissions, which are paid for by the insurers, sharply reduced or eliminated as one potential source of savings, he said.

my’s Associate Head of School Julie Amberg said her school is more popular than ever. The school, with about 120 students, offers pre-kindergarten through high school. Full tuition is $10,500 for the lower school and $10,875 for the middle and upper schools.

“We’re up about 15 percent,” she said.

Amberg attributed the enrollment growth to the school’s new flexible tuition program, which allows families to pay an amount they can afford to attend the school.

“Given what’s going on in the economy, I think that’s really attractive to families,” she said.

While enrollment is once again increasing, the district has finished building new schools to deal with its crunch of kids.

Since voters approved a $119 million bond in 2006, Bend-La Pine Schools has built three elementaries — one in La Pine and two in Bend — and renovated and made additions to several other schools to add capacity. Now, almost all schools in the district are at or below capacity.

lished in 1939, and the only things that have changed through four editions are the personal stories of recovery added to the end. The manuscript — which Hazelden says is the only one in existence — was stored for nearly 40 years in the New York home of Lois and Bill Wilson.

In the late 1970s, Lois Wilson gave the book as a gift to a friend in Montreal, who kept it private for decades. It was put up for auction in 2004 at Sotheby’s, who sold it for $1.56 million. At the time, there was a flurry of criticism from historians who said it was a major document that should be available to scholars.

The buyer sold it a couple of years later to a Houston man, who asked Hazelden to make it public.

As word is beginning to get out about the manuscript, some see fuel for the current fight about faith-based treatment and whether it’s more effective.

Jack Cowley, a former prison warden who worked with AA for decades and now helps run faithbased prison programs, said the manuscript reflects “a cop-out” on Wilson’s part, to make an inherently religious process “the least confrontational.”

“The power is in the understanding of how Christ can apply these ‘steps,’” Cowley said. “It’s the scripture where the power is, it’s not AA. ... This is the same thing we’re doing today. We’re downplaying the faith issue to get more people.”

States ask for phase-in on insurance change

By Robert Pear New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — State insurance regulators told the White House on Wednesday that health insurance markets in some states would be disrupted unless President Barack Obama gave insurers a temporary dispensation from one major provision of the new health care law.

The provision requires insurance companies to spend at least 80 cents of every premium dollar on medical care, rather than administrative expenses, executive salaries Related and profits. If insurers do • How has the not meet the requirement in overhaul 2011, they will have to pay reaffected bates to consumers in 2012.

Central More than 30 state insurOregon? ance commissioners met Page F1 with Obama on Wednesday, just as he was celebrating the benefits that consumers would receive from other provisions of the law, which takes effect this week.

Jane Cline, the insurance commissioner of West Virginia and president of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, said state officials had urged the Obama administration to consider phasing in the 80 percent requirement over several years, to avoid disruption of insurance markets for individuals and small businesses.

Insurance companies in some states spend significantly less than 80 percent of premium revenue on medical benefits.

Sen. John Rockefeller IV, D-W. Va., said that increasing that proportion, known as the medical-loss ratio, was “one of the most important consumer protection provisions” of the new law, and he has denounced efforts to water it down.

State officials said they feared that some companies would withdraw from the individual insurance market next year because they could not meet the 80 percent requirement.

Susan Voss, from Iowa, said her state had asked the Obama administration for a waiver that would allow the state to introduce the 80 percent requirement in a gradual transition from 2011 to 2014.

Obama unveils new plan for foreign aid

By Christi Parsons and Paul Richter McClatchy-Tribune News Service

UNITED NATIONS — President Barack Obama unveiled to world leaders on Wednesday a new plan for distributing U.S. aid to struggling nations, promising to “change the way we do business” by putting a new focus on self-reliance and market forces to create a path out of poverty.

The United States’ aim is not to simply dole out aid but to create “the conditions where assistance is no longer needed,” Obama said in comments at the United Nations.

The program will reward countries willing to cooperate in their own improvement, he said.

At the same time, Obama insisted that the United States will not abandon the helpless and would remain a leading world donor. Countries such as Haiti and Afghanistan will continue to receive special assistance, even if their governments’ records of reform are open to question, aides said.

Obama spoke during a week in which world leaders have been focused on the U.N.’s chief anti-poverty program, the Millennium Development Goals, a 15-year plan launched in 2000. With five years left to meet targets of poverty reduc-

tion and health care improvements, and amid a world economic crisis, doubts have spread about its ultimate success.

The new U.S. program, set up after a lengthy review, builds on the Bush administration’s Millennium Challenge Corporation concept, which aimed to give special rewards to countries that seek to improve their own development and governance in specified ways.

Aides to Obama acknowledged that the new approach will mean shifting aid from some countries to others, but were vague on who will be cut back.

The president named a few names. Obama singled out Tanzania as a country that the U.S. will reach out to help, and mentioned the African coastal country of Cote d’Ivoire as one that may not meet the new American criteria for assistance.

He said the new program would put a strong emphasis on broad economic growth, which he hailed as “the most powerful force the world has ever known for eradicating poverty and creating opportunity.”

Recalls

DMV

Continued from A1 “I’m absolutely convinced that we’ve got more going on than before,” said Cochran, who attributed the increase to the dismal economy and to the proliferation of blogs and social networking sites that make it easier for opponents to organize.

It is not an easy time to be a mayor. At city halls, deficits are not viewed as some far-off problem, as they often are at the federal level, but as gaping holes that must be filled at once by raising taxes or cutting services.

And because city services have a clear impact on people’s day-today lives — think police protection or garbage pickup — those cuts generate huge outcries. Tellingly, many recent recall campaigns have been spurred not by accusations of corruption but by anger over higher taxes or reduced services.

Tea Party activists in several states have tried to recall mayors and lawmakers, and they came close to forcing a vote this year on whether to recall Mayor Ron Littlefield of Chattanooga. The local Tea Party bonded with several other groups to seek the recall of Littlefield, largely because they objected to his decision to raise storm-water fees to comply with federal environmental regulations, and to raise property taxes.

“Those are unpopular things, not things that anyone likes to do, but sometimes in a community you have to step up and do what has to be done,” Littlefield said. “I hope that the recall environment does not become so pervasive that it discourages people from doing the right thing.”

The mayor’s opponents collected more than 15,000 signatures in their effort to recall him, but a judge ruled this month that many were invalid and that the groups had failed to collect enough valid signatures to force a recall vote.

Littlefield said that the episode had been a major distraction just as the city was eagerly waiting for its new Volkswagen plant to go into production.

Supporters of recalls say they provide a much-needed check on

Continued from C1 Those individuals had concerns that the DMV would increase traffic in the residential neighborhood and lower home values in and around the area.

They also feel the DMV should be in a more convenient location in Bend and not on the edge of city limits.

RiverRim Community Association Vice President Bill Binion said the Rim Coffeehouse Co. was not supposed to be the target of the Brookswood Meadow Plaza boycott. He said it was the grocery store, which is owned by Scott and Travis Lovejoy, who also own the plaza.

Noah Berger / New York Times News Service

Daniel Varela Sr., the rookie mayor of Livingston, Calif., was removed from office last month in a landslide recall election. power and give citizens the ability to oust officials accused of corruption. In Bell, Calif., a small working-class city near Los Angeles that became notorious for paying its city manager nearly $800,000 a year, a citizens group was already seeking the recall of several city officials before eight current or former officials were arrested on charges of corruption this week.

But opponents of recalls complain that they often allow a small minority of people to upend the political process.

That appears to have happened last year in Akron, where the longtime mayor, Donald Plusquellic, who has been widely credited with reviving the city’s downtown since taking office in 1987, found himself facing a heated recall campaign. The campaign began after he made unpopular proposals to raise taxes and to create a college scholarship fund for all Akron students by selling or leasing the city’s sewer system, both of which failed.

Getting a recall question on the ballot required gathering the signatures of 20 percent of the people who voted in the last election. But because Plusquellic had

run unopposed in his last general election, few people had voted, so fewer than 3,200 signatures were required to force a recall election in a city of more than 200,000 people.

“It was something like 3 percent of the city’s adult population,” Plusquellic said. “They claim it’s democracy. I claim it’s an abuse of democracy. You can find 3 percent against the Constitution of the United States, 3 percent against democracy, against the Bible.”

Plusquellic prevailed in the recall election by a ratio of three to one. Afterward, Akron revised its charter to require the signatures of 20 percent of the city’s registered voters to put a recall question on the ballot.

It is difficult to say for certain how many recalls there are; many are made at local levels of government, like school boards or the councils of small towns. At least 29 states allow for the recall of some local officials.

Recall campaigns have sought the removal of Democrats, like Plusquellic, in Akron; Republicans, like Mayor Vincent Barrella of Point Pleasant Beach, N.J.; and mayors who were elected in non-

partisan campaigns, like Littlefield in Chattanooga.

But several mayors say they believe that recall efforts have become more common as the economic downturn has soured the electorate.

Flint, of course, was hurting before the national downturn hit — and it was a hotbed of recalls before the trend spread. One Flint mayor was recalled in 2002; another resigned in 2009, just before another recall election was scheduled.

This year the new mayor, Dayne Walling — a young, energetic former Rhodes scholar — found himself fighting yet another recall campaign after he laid off police officers and firefighters to try to make ends meet in a city with an unemployment rate of more than 25 percent.

“Having to make public-safety layoffs is something that I’d hoped to never have to do,” said Walling, who noted that he had resorted to layoffs only after the police and fire unions failed to agree to the concessions he had sought, and after he cut his own salary, auctioned off the mayor’s car and started paying his own cell phone bills.

Federal report: OSHA failing to protect whistleblowers

By Lisa Rein The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — The federal agency responsible for worker safety and other protections for tens of millions of Americans has failed for decades to establish a system to shield whistleblowers from retaliation from their employers, according to government auditors.

The Government Accountability Office’s report criticizes the Labor Department’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration for “ineffective” whistleblower protections that have persisted 20 years after auditors first reported weaknesses.

The stakes have only grown for workers and the public over the last decade, as OSHA — created to ensure safe and healthy working conditions for employees — has expanded its mission. The agency is now charged with enforcing 18 whistleblower laws, covering private employers in the areas of nuclear power, transportation, securities, consumer product safety and the environment.

“For over 20 years, we have repeatedly found that ‘the agency’ lacks sufficient internal controls to ensure that standards for investigating whistleblower complaints are consistently followed,” the 46-page GAO report, released last week, concludes.

Auditors described “significant internal control problems” in the whistleblower protection program, adding, “The problems appear systemic, and sustained management attention is needed to address them.”

Workers who report on waste, fraud or other prohibited or unlawful practices in the workplace can play a crucial role in making sure federal laws are enforced. But whistleblowers risk reprisals from their employers, including demotion, reassignment and firing, auditors said.

Federal laws establish a process for workers who believe they have faced retaliation to report their concerns to investigators.

The program is also not routinely audited, and audits that were performed “lacked independence,” auditors found.

‘Hate to see her go’ “We hate to see her go, we really do,” Binion said of Collier.

“It’s very unfortunate that she is a victim of this situation. It was never our intention for her to get hurt in this.”

After the news broke that the DMV was coming to Brookswood Meadow Plaza, Collier said she started receiving phone messages from residents in the neighborhood asking her “what side of the fence” she was on, so they could determine whether they should continue giving her business.

“People were coming in and saying, ‘No offense, but we’re trying to prove a point,’” she said.

While Collier admits she was trying to sell the coffee shop before the DMV “hoopla,” as she calls it, she wanted to keep the business open so the new owners could make a smooth transition. The boycott didn’t give her that chance.

“It’s not that that took me out of business,” she said, “but that put the nail in the coffin.”

The Rim Coffeehouse Co. had only been open 10 months, and Collier said it was struggling to stay open before the boycott due to the down economy and a lack of traffic at Brookswood Meadow Plaza. Though she felt business was picking up slightly

— and believed the DMV would increase customer flow — she said the boycott meant a dropoff in revenues of about 75 percent. Instead of pulling in $450 a day, she said the coffeehouse was only getting about $100 a day.

“It’s just a sad story,” Collier said. “We put it out there, and we were really trying to make it go.”

Scott Lovejoy said he’s disappointed the boycott impacted Collier and her ability to stay open in Brookswood Meadow Plaza. He said the grocery store is also feeling the effects of the boycott, but it’s not enough to cause it to shut down.

“It’s a very sad state of affairs,” Lovejoy said. “It’s very disappointing to me because I really believe people are operating on a lack of information.”

Lovejoy said a letter was sent out to RiverRim residents assuring them the DMV would not have a noticeable impact on their community. A letter was also posted in the window of the future DMV location.

That letter stated that the increase in traffic, about 369 cars a day, would not be much more than what the plaza already sees in the area because of the grocery store’s presence. It also said the number of vehicles visiting the DMV and grocery store will be less than half the number of cars the plaza was designed to handle.

Lovejoy said the plaza is already struggling to cover its operating costs and debt service because of a lack of tenants. Before the Rim Coffeehouse Co. closed, there were a few other businesses in the plaza, including the grocery store.

While the DMV is not going to be a savior for the plaza, Lovejoy said the boycott is just going to make things more difficult on the businesses that are currently there.

“Frankly, I’m very sorry for the tenants and the grocery store,” Lovejoy said. “No business likes to be boycotted.”

Oregon credit unions plan to merge in ‘11 Grants Pass-based SOFCU Community Credit Union, which has a branch in Bend, and Coquille-based Oregon First Community Credit Union have agreed to merge in early 2011, pending regulatory approval and a vote of SOFCU’s membership, according to an announcement last week.

Both credit unions will operate as affiliates of First Community Credit Union under their state charter and will share leadership.

Both credit unions have formed strategic alliances in the past to help their memberships and say the merger will enable them to better serve the needs of the combined membership, which exceeds 70,000, according to a news release on Oregon First Community’s website.

SOFCU and Oregon First will operate somewhat independently as affiliates of First Community Credit Union, with plans to enable members to use all of the combined 34 branches. In 2004, Oregon First changed its official name to First Community Credit Union while operating under the name of Oregon First Community Credit Union, its assumed business name.

U.S. unlikely to recoup funds with GM IPO In order for the United States to recoup all of its $50 billion investment in General Motors, it must sell its ownership stake at $134 a share, according to the special inspector general of the government’s bailout programs.

The estimate comes as the automaker readies itself for a public stock offering, setting the stage for the government to withdraw from its majority stake in the company.

The price needed for a full recovery of the U.S. investment is far higher than shares of the automaker have ever reached, and some analysts and government officials have expressed doubts that the United States will be able to recover the money.

Potash files suit to stop takeover OTTAWA, Ontario — The Potash Corporation of Saskatchewan, the world’s largest fertilizer maker, filed a lawsuit on Wednesday in an effort to block a hostile $38.6 billion takeover offer from the mining company, BHP Billiton.

In its request for an injunction against the takeover, Potash claimed that BHP’s offer was “built upon false and misleading statements and omissions” as well as BHP’s “manipulation of the perceived value” of the fertilizer company’s shares.

The management of Potash has opposed the BHP offer, arguing that it significantly undervalued its shares.

Cosmetic nail company moves from Eugene, plans to add several jobs

By David Holley The Bulletin

An 11-year-old Eugene company that manufactures cosmetic nail products moved to Redmond last week, having purchased a 12,500-square-foot building near the Redmond Airport in July.

The company, Light Elegance Nail Products, sells a variety of gel products that can be applied to a person’s nails and hold a fake nail tip in place. The gels are cured by using ultraviolet light.

Owners Jim and Lezlie McConnell chose to relocate to Redmond for tax reasons and to be closer to family.

“City and county taxes were pretty significant over there,” Jim McConnell said. Additionally, his company paid a transit district tax that he won’t be charged in Redmond.

Hollywood sounds alarm on streaming video piracy

By Dawn C. Chmielewski

Based on the assessed value of the McConnells’ building in Eugene and the one they now own in Redmond, Light Elegance will pay about 1 percentage point less in property taxes in Redmond annually. The Eugene building’s 2009 property tax was $1,090, or 2.85 percent of its assessed value. The Redmond building’s 2009 property tax was $1,938.51, or 1.86 percent of its assessed value.

With the Light Elegance headquarters, Redmond also gained six employees, plus about three more to be hired in coming months, McConnell said. Light Elegance sells its products internationally through about 30 different distributors.

“Anytime you get a living-wage job, it’s a good thing for the community,” said Redmond Mayor George Endicott.

Execs have pointed words for Chinese prime minister Meeting was civil despite simmering economic tensions

Los Angeles Times

University of Southern California student Elizabeth watched the season finale of HBO’s lusty vampire drama “True Blood” along with about 5.4 million television viewers.

But the 19-year-old junior didn’t see it in a way that would yield ratings points for Time Warner Inc.’s premium cable channel. She caught the final episode on her laptop using Megavideo, one of a growing number of websites in the vanguard of a new wave of Internet piracy. At least 1.25 million others did the same thing, according to estimates from one firm that monitors online traffic.

Megavideo and other sites like it offer a vast unauthorized selection of popular television shows and movies that can be watched with the click of a mouse, using the same streaming technology found on mainstream sites like CNN or Hulu. It demands none of the time or technical sophistication required to download a video file via BitTorrent or other file-sharing technology.

NEW YORK — When Bill Gates confronts the prime minister of China on the need to honor software copyrights, it helps to have a referee — say, a Henry Kissinger — to moderate the debate.

That, in fact, is what happened at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel on Wednesday morning.

In a remarkable 90-minute meeting, with Kissinger playing MC, Gates and other heavyweight executives and economists from the West engaged Prime Minister Wen Jiabao. He listened patiently, and often volleyed back, on topics including currency and trade policies, foreign investment and whether China needs to improve its social safety net.

Others in the circle — literally a large ring of a few dozen chairs — included Jamie Dimon, the head of JPMorgan Chase; Lloyd Blankfein, the Goldman Sachs chief; Joseph Stiglitz, winner of the Nobel in economics; Kenneth Chenault, chairman and chief of American Express; and Pepsico’s chief executive, Indra Nooyi.

Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao addresses the crowd at a dinner hosted by the National Committee on US-China Relations and the US-China Business Council, at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel Wednesday in New York.

China’s top leaders rarely meet Western executives. But Wen, in New York to attend a session of the U.N. General Assembly, agreed to sit down with the group, possibly in the hope of helping ease growing tensions between the United States and China over a wide range of issues.

The session, which Chinese officials dubbed a dialogue with “economic celebrities” was civil and respectful. But there were some pointed words for the Chinese leader, who listened and spoke through an

interpreter.

Chenault told Wen that the most important asset U.S. companies have is their brand.

Seeming to hint that Chinese companies were competing unfairly, Chenault asked the prime minister for his views on brand value.

Wen responded, “We will never usurp others’ brands.”

Nooyi of Pepsico told Wen that her company had invested billions of dollars in China and was already his country’s biggest private potato grower.

Point. Counterpoint.

An editorial in The New England Journal of Medicine on Wednesday took the unusual position of challenging a study published in the same issue.

The exchange highlighted a growing debate in U.S. medicine: How much should health care providers pay for expensive treatments that make relatively small improvements?

The published study proved that a blood-thinning medicine could prevent problems from worsening in some people with a sometimes painful, usually short-term, blood clot near the surface of the leg, called superficial-vein thrombosis.

But the editorial challenged the unreported cost of the treatment in the study — more than $180,000 for 88 patients to receive injections for 45 days — to prevent one of them from having a more dangerous, but rarely fatal, deep vein clot.

The issue of cost-effectiveness is taking on new importance as more Americans become eligible for Medicare insurance, and some 30 million uninsured people are promised health coverage by 2019.

Facebook is hoping its virtual credits will generate real income

By Miguel Helft New York Times News Service

PALO ALTO, Calif. — For all its success, Google is often criticized for being a one-trick pony. After 12 years, the Internet search company is still struggling to find a significant new revenue source to supplement its lucrative text advertising business.

Facebook, which more than any other company aspires to usurp Google’s dominant place on the Internet, hopes to avoid that problem. Already on the path to becoming an advertising powerhouse, the social networking company is laying the groundwork for its second act: a virtual currency system that some day could turn into a multibillion-dollar business.

Facebook began testing its virtual currency, called Credits, more than a year ago with some popular games on Facebook.

Retailers scrambling to cater to budget-conscious shoppers

By Stephanie Clifford New York Times News Service

The country’s continued economic doldrums have stores scrambling for the once-ignored low-end customer, as people make fewer pricey shopping trips to stock their pantries and, increasingly, can afford only inexpensive items in small quantities like those sold at dollar stores.

Dollar stores have shown the biggest spike in shopper visits over the past year out of all the retailers that sell basic consumer goods, according to market research data. Manufacturers are racing to package more affordable versions of products common at those stores; other budget retailers, feeling the loss of customers, are trying to duplicate their success.

Wal-Mart, the world’s largest retailer, is adding thousands of items to its shelves, including inexpensive ones, and is asking dollar-store suppliers to create small, under-a-dollar packages for its stores, too. In areas with high unemployment, Wal-Mart is grouping together its less than $1 items in a clear challenge to the dollar stores.

The impetus for the downmarket trend is the continued tightening of household budgets, retailers and analysts said.

Some customers at Wal-Mart and the major dollar chains — Dollar General, Family Dollar and Dollar Tree — have such modest budgets that the retailers report upticks in spending at the beginning of the month, when government benefit checks and many paychecks come through.

Late in the month, sales drop as even multiroll packs of paper towels are ditched for a single roll.

“People are literally running out of cash on hand as the month goes on and they’re looking for smaller package sizes,” said Craig Johnson, president of the retail consulting and research firm Customer Growth Partners. “They may have $10, $20, $30 to spend getting toward the end of the month, and they have to be able to still feed the family and get diapers and so forth.”

Value of a dollar At about a quarter of WalMart’s stores, the company is beginning to offer items for un-

Michael Nagle / New York Times News Service

Customers shop at a Family Dollar store in New York earlier this month. Retailers such as Wal-Mart are starting to offer packages of products for less than a dollar. der $1, like a four-pack of toilet paper, boxes containing just a few garbage bags and single rolls of paper towels.

But the dollar stores have best been able to capitalize on the downmarket trend because of strategies they embraced during the recession, when the stores kept things cheap and expanded their merchandise, analysts said.

Realizing that their shoppers often could not afford regularsized detergent, for example, the stores worked with manufacturers to create smaller packages that cost less.

In the past year, dollar stores “have not only shown growth among their heaviest shoppers, but also that they are stealing heavy shoppers” from stores like Wal-Mart, said Susan Viamari, editor of Times and Trends, a publication from the market research and consulting firm SymphonyIRI Group, in an e-mail message.

SymphonyIRI tracks what consumers are buying.

Same-store sales, which measure revenues at stores open at least a year, at the three major dollar chains have increased for at least 10 consecutive quarters.

At Wal-Mart, same-store U.S. sales have declined for the past five quarters.

During the recession, WalMart pulled back on very inexpensive products, suppliers said, to make the stores look less cluttered and to appeal to shoppers who might be testing out that retailer instead of, say, Target. That decision has it now playing catch-up.

In the past couple of quarters, Wal-Mart attempted aggressive discounts on items like milk, but the price cuts didn’t attract huge traffic, Thomas Schoewe, Wal-Mart’s chief financial officer, said in a conference call with reporters last month.

He said dollar stores were part of the challenge.

“Many times it is convenient to walk into a dollar store and even though the price per unit, if you will, may be a little bit higher at the dollar store, if they can find that product and still live from paycheck to paycheck, that’s how they’re solving that problem,” Schoewe said.

Creative retail The dollar stores have found creative ways to keep their pric-

es low. When commodity costs rose for suppliers, for example, the dollar stores asked them to decrease the number of sandwich bags in a box or pushed them to come up with a cheaper version of the products.

To increase their attractiveness to the low-income customer, the dollar stores have also switched out merchandise like tchotchkes for necessities like food and detergent.

At Family Dollar, most customers have incomes under $40,000 and have “really curtailed discretionary spending out of necessity,” said Kiley Rawlins, a spokeswoman.

But customers are shopping more frequently, she said, and buying a greater variety of items, a reflection of the items like cleaning products that the store now carries.

Some of the stores have even managed to reach some middleincome shoppers, by increasing products from well-known brands like Hanes, Quaker Oats and Nabisco.

“This is a break from historical trends, where dollar stores really catered almost entirely to lower income shoppers,” Viamari of SymphonyIRI said.

Fearful industry The financial damage to the industry is hard to quantify. The federal Government Accountability Office threw up its hands in April, writing that it couldn’t accurately estimate the losses because of all the assumptions required to make up for the lack of data — such as estimating how many consumers would have purchased something they pirated.

The fear is nonetheless palpable throughout the entertainment industry. Executives worry that improvements in Internet speeds and in the software that compresses movie files into easy-to-distribute packages are making matters worse.

“It’s made streaming a lot less clunky than it was even three years ago,” said Darcy Antonellis, president of Warner Bros.

Technical Operations.

Some of the sites that provide links to pilfered digital content lack any whiff of the illicit.

“It may be the case, in some instances, that people are viewing content from these sites believ-

ing they’re legitimate sites,” said Daniel Mandil, the MPAA’s general counsel. “That’s obviously part of the business model that these sites want to create the impression of legitimacy.”

Take, for example, Sidereel, which offers users the ability to watch “every show on the Web.” The site includes ads from Macy’s department store, the National Football League and even from the NBC broadcast network, which is using the site to promote Jimmy Smits’ new fall series “Outlaw.” It contains features common to entertainment sites, including Top 10 rankings, recommendations and a fall TV preview with descriptions of upcoming shows.

Anti-piracy experts describe Sidereel as a linking site that directs viewers looking to watch popular shows that aren’t available free online — such as HBO’s “True Blood” or Showtime’s “Dexter” — to cyberlockers such as Megavideo, which hosts streaming video files.

Chief Executive Roman Arzhintar said Sidereel was nothing more than a specialized search engine. It points people to relevant content, including such legitimate sources as Amazon. com, iTunes and Hulu, and it immediately removes links whenever it receives notice that it is directing people to infringing content, he said.

“From my standpoint, Sidereel’s main goal is to help people find the content they’re looking for and to track the content so they can keep watching,” Arzhintar said. “I can’t stop the consumer from searching for stuff.”

Industry solutions Technology exists to solve the problem it enabled.

Richard Atkinson, a media piracy expert who created and ran Walt Disney Studio’s anti-piracy operations team, said Vobile makes identification technology that can quickly recognize a movie or TV show from its digital fingerprint, giving website

operators the tools to block unauthorized uploads of copyrighted works. But some sites prefer instead the procedure spelled out in copyright law, which requires them to remove infringing content within a reasonable period of time after being notified by the rights holder.

Time is of the essence, however.

“If something is really in high demand, you’ve got the whole world connected via social media, blogging, Twitter,” Atkinson said. “Almost in real time, I can post something to a site and do a worldwide shout-out about my posting.”

A quick removal, Atkinson said, “can mean the difference between a hundred views, which is fairly good containment, and hundreds of thousands of views.”

Continued from B1 Streaming video is the most visible sign of how Internet piracy has evolved since the days of Napster and its imitators. The new digital black market combines “cyberlockers,” such as Megaupload and Hotfile, which piracy experts say hold stores of pilfered content, with linking sites such as TVDuck and TVShack.cc, that act like an underground version of TV Guide, helping people locate bootlegged TV shows and movies. Some of these linking sites even contain reviews and recommendations that lend a patina of legitimacy.

The growth of streaming pirate sites has been nothing short of arresting. One independent measurement service documented a 42 percent jump in the number of infringing sites with streaming capability from July to August, sounding alarms throughout Hollywood.

“Accessing stolen content by streaming has become increasingly widespread,” said Rick Cotton, general counsel for NBC Universal. “So the challenge of reducing digital theft online now has a second major focal point.”

Technological leaps in the living room are heightening anxiety further, with manufacturers expected to ship 27.7 million televisions and 55.7 million media players with Internet connections this year alone, according to global projections from researcher iSuppli. Software including Google TV makes it possible for viewers to search for and find video on the Web — including unauthorized streams (a Google spokesman said the company provides tools for rights holders to remove links to infringing content).

“As we see more and more Internet-connected TVs, we’ll see more and more streaming piracy,” said Brian Baker, president and chief executive of Widevine, a company that makes the Internet streaming technology used

by Netflix, Blockbuster, Cin-

emaNow and Wal-Mart.

File-sharing remains the primary source for pirated digital copies of songs, movies, TV episodes and video games. But use has stagnated as media companies have enjoyed greater success in crippling or shutting down popular sites such as Mininova and Isohunt, said Eric Garland, chief executive of BigChampagne, a media tracking firm. Streaming and downloading from so-called cyberlockers are on track to surpass peer-to-peer use by 2013, according to the Motion Picture Association of America, Hollywood’s lobbying arm.

“It’s not larger than peer-topeer, but it’s growing faster,” said Lawrence Low, a vice president of strategy with BayTSP, a technology company that works on behalf of entertainment industry clients in identifying unauthorized content online. “Live streaming, in particular, is doubling in the last two years.”

Starting on right foot: 7 tasks for new consumer bureau chief

Stretched thin “Right now, I have nothing,” said Lawrence Jackson, 52.

Jackson spent what retirement savings he had paying bills when he was out of work. He also invested about $5,000 in his own business, Pinnacle Contractor Services in Detroit, which offers business support to building-trades contractors.

Jackson had a fairly stable career in banking until 2000. Then he would get a job and get hit by cutbacks.

He worked at Michigan National Bank, First Independence Bank, First of America and later for a fund that specialized in making loans to nonprofits. He had been making about $70,000 a year.

Now, he’s making about $50,000 a year at the Downriver Community Conference in Southgate, helping people get loans from the U.S. Small Business Administration.

Half of his pay after taxes each month goes toward the $1,600 mortgage payment on a house in Belleville, Mich.

He jokes that he won’t be leaving his wife, Cynthia NicholsJackson, because she has more retirement savings. A nurse at the University of Michigan hospital, she also pays the $700a-month bill for the second mortgage on the home, which the couple bought in 1997 for $250,000.

“The house across the street just sold for $99,000,” Lawrence Jackson said.

He maintains a good sense of humor but doesn’t laugh when he says he might need to work until 70 or 75.

“God willing, if I’m healthy, I’m going to keep going,” Jackson said. “I can be scared or get worried, or I can just keep working.”

Ticking clock As a bankruptcy attorney in Detroit, Walter Metzen, 47, has seen boomer engineers who can no longer find jobs that pay $100,000, and older couples who got into trouble buying a bigger home.

“There’s a lot of people who were hoping to retire but basically can’t,” Metzen said. “You’ve only got 10 good working years left, and you don’t even have a job.”

When Fernandez retired after 25 years with the phone company, she didn’t intend to quit working. Six years ago, she took her pension in a lump sum and invested it with a financial adviser.

Losing money as stock prices tumbled, she thought she could do better by picking up rental properties in metro Detroit on the cheap. But now she wonders how long she can keep them.

Her original Plan B was to make money on investments — plus a few thousand dollars a month as a massage therapist.

“I envisioned this flood of people,” Fernandez said. “And it just didn’t happen.”

So she got the job. What should she do with it?

The appointment of Elizabeth Warren to oversee the establishment of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, announced Friday, makes it pretty obvious how special the circumstances were that surrounded it. Consumer groups hoped she would become director, the job title named in the law that created the bureau. But the White House chose a more indirect appointment — making her an assistant to the president — to avoid a confirmation battle with lawmakers who argue that she’s a bank-slaying radical.

Whatever she’s called, however, there is plenty of work awaiting her. A couple of big pieces of recent legislation have accomplished a lot already. The Card Act, for instance, made it much harder for people under the age of 21 to get credit cards and required banks to get permission before letting consumers spend more than their credit limits (and charging them lots of fees for the privilege).

The financial overhaul law that created the bureau, meanwhile, also ushered in new mortgage rules. Mortgage brokers and bankers, for instance, can no longer earn bonuses for putting people in higher-priced loans.

Consumer advocates and industry experts still see plenty of questionable corporate practices worthy of Warren’s attention.

I asked her to provide her own priority list, but she declined.

“Thanks for the offer,” she wrote in an e-mail, “but I can’t say anything about anything.”

So, with the experts’ help, I came up with a list of seven tasks she might turn to first. Opponents will challenge her authority to take on these sorts of things, but she’ll probably have her way with some of them given her history of tenaciousness.

Student loans Universities often don’t know how many loans students have applied for. That makes it much harder for them to provide counseling, say, to let students know that they’re still eligible for additional federal loans that are cheaper or have better terms than private ones.

So every lender could report every private student loan to a student’s college or university.

This is not controversial; banks themselves are in favor of it, as Lauren Asher of the Project on Student Debt noted this week.

That makes this move an easy call for the bureau.

Default disclosure If 10 or 20 or 50 percent of all students at a particular institution are defaulting on their student loans, students ought to know that before choosing to take on their own pile of debt. So the bureau could ask every college and university to disclose its students’ federal and private loan default rates on its financial aid applications and enrollment forms, along with averages from a group of similar schools.

This way, students will know the odds before they take on debt to attend, say, a for-profit trade school.

Free credit scores The basic problem in the credit reporting world is that consumers still don’t have free, unlimited access to the information that companies and employers use to judge them.

For some time now, consumers have been able to get one free copy of their credit report each year from the three biggest credit bureaus that produce them, Equifax, Experian and TransUnion.

But each of those companies also creates its own version of the FICO credit score, the mystifying figure that many lenders use to judge applicants. Given that lots of companies judge consumers purely on their scores without ever looking at their underlying credit report, people ought to be able to get their scores free once a year as well.

Another option for scores If free scores do not become available, John Ulzheimer of Credit.com would like to see a centralized bazaar where all scores that lenders tend to use are available for sale to consumers.

He would force the credit bureaus to disclose their market share, too, so consumers buying scores would know which were most popular with lenders.

Lender guidance Or how about making it easier on consumers who want to

see their data before landlords, lenders or employers do so?

Those parties could disclose, upfront, which credit scores or reports they plan to check. That way, consumers can do their own checking ahead of time and perhaps delay applying until they’ve made improvements or fixed errors in their credit reports.

Nobody’s asking for proprietary underwriting criteria here, just the sources of data. Disclosing it hardly equates to the revelation of state secrets.

Business credit cards There’s a big loophole in the Card Act, namely that not all cards are covered by it.

Small-business credit cards of various sorts are exempt, which means banks that issue them don’t have to follow new rules that limit how quickly card companies can raise interest rates or fees. But many consumers see no difference between the commercial card products and the ones consumers use. Some card companies, in fact, seem to encourage the fuzziness by sending applications for small-business cards directly to consumers’ homes.

In the second quarter of 2010, card issuers sent about 60 million promotions for small-business and other similar cards to consumers’ homes, according to Mintel Comperemedia.

While that’s a small fraction of the 1 billion total card solicitations that landed in residential mailboxes in that period, plenty of consumers don’t realize that they are supposed to be business owners before applying for these cards.

So shouldn’t the “business” cards also be covered by legislation that protects consumers’ cards? The consumer bureau could probably erase this false distinction pretty quickly.

More 45-day warnings Ulzheimer also urged the new bureau to require card companies to give consumers 45 days’ notice before lowering their credit limits, the same amount of warning they now must give before increasing an interest rate or annual fee or other charge. After all, a lower limit could cause a drop in your FICO score, which can be a problem if you’re applying for a mortgage. Or how about 30 days at least?

Costs

“My feeling is resources are limited, and you have to ration care somehow because all of our money can’t be spent on health care.”

Continued from B1 The United States already spends more on health care than any other country, yet it does less than many countries to control the costs. That has also been an issue with biologic drugs — some that can cost $100,000 a year — that prolong life in late-stage cancer patients, as well as some expensive medical devices for heart patients.

Dr. Stephen Resch, deputy director of the Center for Health Decision Science at the Harvard School of Public Health, said, “My feeling is resources are limited, and you have to ration care somehow because all of our money can’t be spent on health care.”

Last year, Congress backed away from plans to limit health care spending after opponents claimed it would lead to so-called death panels. Lawmakers have also declined to give Medicare the authority to negotiate lower prices directly with drugmakers.

— Dr. Stephen Resch, deputy director of the Center for Health Decision Science at the Harvard School of Public Health Congress did, however, authorize a Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute that can do cost-effectiveness studies and an Independent Medicare Advisory Board that could eventually press for lower prices.

Cost criticism The reports on the blood thinner pitted Dr. Lee Goldman, dean of health sciences and medicine at Columbia and a critic of higher costs, against a team of European researchers financed by the drugmaker GlaxoSmithKline.

The study of 3,002 people with superficial-vein thrombosis showed that the condition worsened to deep-vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism in 1.3 percent of those who took a placebo

tions. But Mark Zuckerberg, the chief executive, said recently that the company may choose to do “a lot more” with Credits.

Over time, the company plans to turn Credits into a system for micropayments that could be open to any application on Facebook, be it a game or perhaps a media company, people with direct knowledge of Facebook’s plans said. They spoke anonymously because the plans have not been announced publicly.

In addition to games, which account for the vast majority of money spent on Facebook, more than 1 million other applications run on the site. In the future, many of those may choose to charge for access to certain features or to things like music, videos or news articles.

Some analysts and industry insiders say that expanding Credits makes sense and could eventually put Facebook in competition with PayPal, Google, Amazon and others for a slice of the growing pie of online transactions.

“If they can get 50 million registered credit cards, why wouldn’t they use them to pay for your newspaper subscription?” said Alex Rampell, the chief executive of TrialPay, an advertising company that offers free Facebook Credits to

Continued from B1 This month, Credits passed a milestone when it became the exclusive payment method for most of the games created by Zynga, the No. 1 developer of Facebook applications.

Zynga is expected to have $500 million in revenue this year, according to the Inside Network, which tracks Facebook applications, as millions of users pay real money to buy virtual goods on games like FarmVille and Mafia Wars. Through Credits, Facebook will take a 30 percent cut.

By the end of the year, Facebook expects that Credits will be used to buy the vast majority of virtual goods sold on Facebook. The fastgrowing market is expected to reach $835 million on Facebook this year, according to the Inside Network. To bolster that market, Facebook began selling Credits gift cards at Target stores this month.

Bigger plans For now, Facebook says it simply wants Credits to help foster the growth of virtual goods transac-

for 45 days and 0.2 percent of those who took the drug Arixtra.

It was an excellent, randomized, double-blind study that reported statistically significant results, Goldman and Dr. Jeffrey Ginsberg, a blood expert, wrote in the editorial.

But the study did not talk about the costs, they wrote, which could range from $2,124 to $7,380 a person for 45 days of injections, or at least $186,000 for 88 people to avoid one new problem.

“The paradox is, it’s effective, but for a condition that’s usually not considered an overwhelmingly serious medical problem,” Goldman said in an interview.

“The fact that it’s a medicine that’s expensive really raises an issue, not just for this trial, but we tried to make the point more

people who buy certain products.

Others say the potential for using Credits could extend beyond the Facebook site, through Facebook Connect, a service that allows users to log in to sites across the Web using their Facebook identities.

“There is a huge opportunity for Facebook to use Facebook Connect to offer seamless checkout on other sites,” said Ron Hirson, a senior vice president at Boku, a start-up company that enables online payments using a cell phone.

“They are focusing on games and apps now, but it would make sense for them to go into other” product categories.

Partners, competition For now, Facebook prefers to play down talk of its broader ambitions for Credits. Dan Rose, Facebook’s vice president for partnerships and platform marketing, talks about the usefulness of Credits while playing Facebook games.

Users will have a single currency they can spend on any game, sparing them the trouble of entering the credit card or PayPal credentials multiple times, he says.

Some developers say they already have made gains.

Cost-effectiveness researchers in the United States have benchmarks that suggest that “good value for the money” is $50,000 per added year of high-quality life, Resch said. In some cases, where cheaper treatments are unavailable, up to $120,000 per added year have been suggested, he said.

The editorial did not analyze long-term outcomes. Resch, who was not involved in either article, said it appeared the cost would not provide that value.

But the drug is nearing approval for shallow-vein use in Europe, where costs are considered by regulators. GlaxoSmithKline is not seeking such approval by the Food and Drug Administration, which considers only safety and efficacy.

The FDA has already approved the drug to treat and prevent deepvein thrombosis and embolism.

Sarah Alspach, a spokeswoman for GlaxoSmithKline, said the

price of Arixtra was a good value for those conditions. She said the company would discuss pricing for the new treatment with individual countries in Europe.

Karen Buckley, spokeswoman for the journal, said it published the study because it addressed an unmet medical need, and it published the editorial to point out the high cost of treatment to help 1 in 88 cases.

Dr. Herve Decousus, lead author of the study, said he thought that the editorial was unfair.

“If we give this drug, we avoid a great number of surgical procedures, which are risky for patients and cost a lot of money,” he said in a telephone interview from Saint-Etienne, France.

Further, he said, patients and doctors can see clots expand in the veins under skin toward deeper veins where they can also migrate to the lungs.

“It’s painful, and you can see the clot in front of you,” he said.

“Patients are frightened; physicians are frightened. We don’t want to wait for a fatal pulmonary embolism.”

“We are seeing the number of paying users increase and the revenue per user increase, and FB deserves a lot of the credit for it,” said Mark Hull, vice president for marketing at CrowdStar, whose Happy Aquarium game is among the most popular on Facebook.

Rose said that if Facebook succeeds, Credits “could grow it to a size where over time it will become a material revenue generator.”

For now, he said, Facebook plans to reinvest revenue from Credits into improving its software for developers.

But Facebook’s ambitions are unmistakable. Credits is backed by a sizable engineering and product team that is full of PayPal veterans.

“It is a lot like PayPal in the early days,” said Deb Liu, a former director of corporate strategy at PayPal who is now product marketing manager for Credits. “We are moving fast and changing the industry.”

For now, Credits is not a rival to PayPal or other payment systems.

In February, Facebook signed an agreement with PayPal, a unit of eBay, making PayPal one of the preferred ways to finance Credits accounts. Facebook users can buy Credits using their credit cards and

some mobile payment services.

Since Zynga was one of PayPal’s largest customers, Facebook is now a significant customer as well.

“Facebook has been a great partner,” Osama Bedier, PayPal’s vice president for platform, said.

But as Credits expands beyond Facebook games, it could collide with a number of others competing for a piece of the growing commerce in digital goods. They include Apple, the leading seller of music and apps; Google, whose Checkout system is used in e-commerce and on the company’s app store for mobile phones; and even Amazon, which is seeking to expand its payment system across the Web. Analysts said Facebook’s ambitions might well run into the same obstacles that have thwarted Google and Amazon as they have sought to expand across the Web. “Facebook is a very innovative company, but we have had two large innovative companies, Google and Amazon, that have spent a fair amount of effort on payments,” said Mark Mahaney, an analyst at Citigroup. Those companies have yet to gain much traction, he said. “I have to think that the odds against Facebook are steep.”

Nails Continued from B1 “We try to take pride in the fact that, at least up here, we try to be business-friendly. It sounds like some people believe it.”

McConnell said the Light Elegance system works similarly to acrylic nails. Whereas acrylic nails can have an odor some dislike, McConnell said, Light Elegance’s gel-based products are odorless. Other companies also make gel nails.

Additionally, because the gels are cured using ultraviolet lights — Light Elegance also sells its own lights — there’s no drying time, McConnell said.

“The client can go into her car, reach into her purse, grab her keys (and) drive home” after a manicure, McConnell said.

The couple will manufacture all of the products at the Redmond facility, in the former High Desert Glass location at 406 S.W. Umatilla Ave. Additionally, the new site will host master training classes for individuals who will later teach nail technicians throughout the world how to use the products.

The McConnells created the Light Elegance products in 1999 when Lezlie, who owned a salon, asked Jim, a chemist, to develop it. Business has been strong since, even during the recession.

Lezlie said Light Elegance’s business grew 38 percent in 2009.

“It’s amazing how far vanity goes,” she said. “I can’t tell you what (having your nails done) means for a woman.”

LILY RAFF

Let’s talk about the weather

S

tarting today, it is officially fall.

But if you’re like me, you’ve noticed that it’s already felt like fall for several weeks.

As Central Oregonians, we like to remind ourselves that we’re envied across the state — even the country — for our mild, sunny climate.

We pity the mildewed, vitamin Ddeprived residents of Portland and Eugene. How do they stand so much rain?

We marvel at the hardy folks who endure epic deep freezes in the upper Midwest. How do they stand so much cold?

We shake our heads at those bronzed, climate-controlled Southwesterners.

How do they stand so much heat?

Here in the High Desert, our summers are especially glorious: days of blue skies and warm, dry sunshine, followed by starry nights that get cool enough to sleep without air conditioning.

The only problem with summers in Central Oregon? They’re short.

Especially this year.

Squeezed between a cold, dreary spring that dragged through most of June, and the premature, mid-August cold snap of autumn, the calendar left little room for our warmest season.

I, for one, couldn’t help but feel cheated.

But according to Ann Adams, assistant meteorologist at the National Weather Service in Pendleton, I shouldn’t.

In fact, her data show that the summer of 2010 was just about average.

“It’s been a little bit wetter and a little bit warmer than normal,” she says. “But not much.”

Warmer? Actually, yes. The average high in August was 81 degrees, which is the exact 50-year average.

And as any gardener knows, nighttime frosts are almost a year-round occurrence in the High Desert.

In Bend, for example, our last freeze of the spring typically occurs, on average, June 23, Adams reports. And the first freeze of autumn occurs, on average, Aug. 10.

You read that right: here in paradise, 48 frost-free days equals one normal summer.

It’s no wonder, then, that my meager tomato harvest usually finishes ripening in a paper bag in my kitchen.

This year, on the other hand, June 18 was the last day in Bend that the mercury dropped down to 32. And the chilliest morning since then was September 7, when it got down to a balmy 34.

In other words, Bend’s growing season is already 96 days — twice as long as average — and counting.

Indian summer? I hardly recognized you.

Adams did confirm, however, my hunch that this summer was wetter than average, at least in Bend.

In June, Bend absorbed 1.27 inches of rain, or almost twice the average.

But most of that — 0.89 inches, to be exact — fell during one 24-hour period, from June 3 to June 4. The total number of June days with measurable rain?

Five.

“There were three more days where it sprinkled, but not enough to measure,” Adams adds.

So much for my memory of a wet, dreary June.

And Redmond received just over half an inch of rain during June, or slightly less than its average of .62 inches. So the summer there was warmer and drier than usual.

For me, this was a surprising reminder that although it’s easy to grasp the weather on a given day, our climate — the long-term average pattern — is a different story. It’s hard to gauge what the last month was really like, much less compare it to previous years.

And, as Adams points out, it’s tempting to whine.

“We’re always going to have the complainers,” she says. “The ones who in summer can’t wait for it to be winter, and the ones who in winter can’t wait for it to be summer.”

Adams is right. We can’t change the weather, so we might as well make the most of what we get.

Central Oregonians are good at that.

We float the river during heat waves and ski the slopes during snowstorms.

Besides, it could be worse. We could live, well, anywhere else.

911 tape sheds light on shooting Trono’s son, 18, is heard speaking calmly with dispatcher after early morning incident on July 28

By Erin Golden The Bulletin

In a 911 call after the July 28 shooting of developer Stephen Trono, 18-yearold Mathew Trono told a dispatcher that his mother was “really nervous” when she heard someone outside the family’s west Bend home.

When she asked who was there, and his father didn’t respond, the teen said his mother, holding a .22 caliber re-

volver, fired six times, hitting Stephen Trono in the stomach.

The tape of the conversation, released this week by Deschutes County 911, sheds some light on what was going on in the Trono house as family members waited for police and medics to arrive. Police would not confirm any of the details mentioned during the eight-minute call. Nearly two months after the shooting, detectives have

wrapped up almost all of their investigation, except one major piece: interviewing the victim.

Upgraded to fair condition Stephen Trono has been hospitalized since the shooting, first at St. Charles Bend and currently at Oregon Health & Sciences University in Portland. He was listed in critical condition for several weeks as he underwent multiple surgeries. This week, he was upgraded from serious to fair condition.

Records show Mathew Trono used a cell phone to dial 911 around 12:30 a.m.

On the tape, he first tells the dispatcher that he’s calling from Mt. Shasta Drive, but is unsure of the exact address. Stephen, 60, Angelicque, 39, and their sons had moved into the house about a week earlier. Mathew Trono later told the dispatcher that six people were at home at the time of the shooting.

After sorting out the location, the dispatcher asks what’s going on.

“Um, my mom just accidentally shot my dad,” Mathew Trono says.

The dispatcher asks if his father is conscious, and Mathew says he’ll check.

TUMALO — Daryl Martin and Christopher Ferrara, both sixthgraders at Tumalo Community School, told the Redmond School Board Wednesday that fruit and vegetables from the school’s garden should be served at lunch.

Their suggestion came during the district’s first in-school board meeting in several years. About 20 parents, students and teachers attended the Wednesday meet-

Fence for garden The meeting at Tumalo began with a one-hour listening session.

During that session, the conversation ranged from vegetables to the five-day school week. Daryl and Christopher described Tumalo’s garden, with suggestions for its improvement and use.

“For school lunches, we should add vegetables from our garden,” Daryl said.

“Yeah, and fence off the garden,” Christopher said. “I saw a pumpkin crushed.”

“It was pretty dead and crushed all over,” Daryl told the board.

During the listening session, board members avoided making any commitments or decisions on issues raised. Board Chairman Jim Erickson told people at the meeting he wanted to hear what was and wasn’t working in the school. The district will send out a summary of each listening session to district staff.

Board members decided to visit schools even though board members knew they might hear difficult critiques, according to district spokeswoman Stephanie Curtis.

“I just think it’s something different than sitting in a board room and waiting for people to come (to the board) if they have problems.”

WASHINGTON — After years of mismanagement at the Warm Springs Housing Authority, the U.S. Housing and Urban Development Department says the agency will have to prove it can provide safe housing for reservation residents or face a range of federal penalties.

The HUD Northwest Office of Native American Programs (NwONAP) wrote that the housing authority isn’t equipped to oversee the federal housing grants, in a letter to the Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs earlier this month.

“As a consequence, NwONAP is concerned that current and future federal funds that are the responsibility of the Tribe are at great risk of being mismanaged and wasted without benefit to the intended clients,” the letter said.

Since 2003, federal audits found Housing Authority officials mismanaged federal Indian Housing Block Grant funds and failed to fix a wide array of health and safety problems — ranging from a lack of smoke detectors to crumbling sidewalks and crime — that were highlighted in a 2009 audit.

Tribes address 8 of 10 violations As of the end of August, the tribes had addressed eight of 10 violations identified by federal investigators in 2009.

If the rest aren’t fixed, HUD wrote, it could decrease federal funding for low-income housing in Warm Springs, require the tribes to find a new agency to manage federal Indian Housing Block Grants or limit when the housing authority can spend money from federal accounts.

The tribes will also have to show that the housing authority has the “administrative capacity” to manage the $1.4 million a year federal grant, or that the Warm Springs tribes will dissolve the housing authority and take direct control of the housing programs.

In an e-mail, Warm Springs Secretary-Treasurer Jody Calica said the Warm Springs Tribal Council voted to reaffirm the Housing Authority’s jurisdiction over the federal grants.

“They elected to reassert Tribal Ordinance 60 as an apparent endorsement of WSHA as-is,” Calica said.

FAA says hangar homes won’t fly The Associated Press WASHINGTON — Agreements allowing private plane owners with “hangar homesâ€? adjacent to airports to taxi directly from their property onto airport tarmacs risk turning government investments into private perks, a Federal Aviation Administration official said Wednesday. “The fundamental distinctions between public use airports ‌ and private airports have begun to blur,â€? Catherine Lang, the FAA’s associate administrator for airports, told a hearing of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee.

FAA officials want to cut off federal aid to public airports that sign new so-called “through-the-fence� agreements with real estate developers and homeowners.

The popularity of hangar homes on property adjacent to small public airports is growing.

And so is concern among federal officials that such arrangements can endanger safety and limit the ability of airports to expand and could be a misuse of government money.

Oregon airports Airports in the state with such agreements are: • Christmas Valley • Hobby Field • Gold Beach Municipal • Independence State • Siletz Bay State • Cottage Grove State Source: Federal Aviation Administraion

FAA officials have said they have no problem with private airparks that have similar access agreements with homeowners because those airparks don’t receive federal dollars.

But publicly owned airports usually rely on the $3.5 billion in grants the FAA makes annually to airports to help pay for new runways, safety equipment and other improvements.

Earlier this month, the FAA updated a policy proposal that grants be cut off to public airports that enter into new agreements. The agency is also looking at whether the existing agreements with homeowners and developers at 72 public air-

ports conflict with the promises the airports made when they accepted government money.

Even if such arrangements are working today, that doesn’t mean they’ll continue to work years or decades from now, Lang said. Experience has shown that close proximity of homes to an airport is often an insurmountable obstacle to airport expansion, she said.

The proposal has drawn fire from homeowners, the Experimental Aircraft Association and their congressional supporters who say the problems have been overblown. Access fees from such arrangements, they say, help airports raise money. Having homeowners nearby also adds an extra layer of security, especially at night when airports are closed, they say.

The committee is considering a bill by Rep. Sam Graves, R-Mo., to allow airports to continue to enter into new throughthe-fence agreements. “It should be up to the local community and municipality to make that decision,� Graves said. “If they don’t like them, they don’t have to have them.�

Commission approves contract with clinic

Bend coalition director recognized for efforts

The Deschutes County Commission voted Wednesday morning to approve a contract with the Charlotte, N.C.-based company Healthstat to open and operate an onsite employee health clinic, Commissioner Tammy Baney said.

The clinic, which county employees will be able to use on a voluntary basis, is intended to control costs of employee health insurance. County staff expect the contract with Healthstat to cost the county approximately $500,000, according to a county staff report. The contract could save the county at least $250,000 a year in health care costs, according to a staff report.

Baney said the commissioners also decided to evaluate how the clinic is working out in six months, then again after it has been open for a year. Deschutes County self-insures for employee health care, and will pay for the clinic operations and remodeling from a county fund used to pay employee health insurance claims.

The local director of Bend’s Human Dignity Coalition, Jenni Peskin, was recognized as a champion of equality by Basic Rights Oregon on Wednesday, according to a news release.

Peskin was recognized for her support and advocacy for lesbian-gay-bisexual-transgender equality in Central Oregon, having organized fundraisers, pride festivals and celebrations.

Peskin was one of seven individuals and organizations to be recognized by Basic Rights Oregon for their contributions.

A celebration dinner will be held in Portland Oct. 2 to honor those who were recognized by the organization.

O Emergency radio has own crisis Oregon Wireless Interoperability Network project running late, $107M over budget The Associated Press PORTLAND — Plans to build a statewide emergency radio network are running late and $107 million over budget, according to internal state audits and reports.

The documents indicate that mismanagement, missed deadlines and hidden costs have pushed up the price tag to $592 million — well beyond the $485 million that state officials were citing only a few months ago, The Oregonian reported Wednesday.

The newspaper said audits and reports it obtained under

Oregon public record law also showed that state officials failed to include big-ticket items in the cost estimates they gave to lawmakers.

$25M more, at least To meet deadlines, taxpayers will have to spend at least $25 million more on contractors to help the project catch up, and millions more to consultants and engineers to finish work state officials can’t get done on time.

Managers of the project — formally called the Oregon

Wireless Interoperability Network, or OWIN — never included a contingency to guard against cost overruns, driving costs up by another $20 million, the newspaper said.

State budget shortfall The project’s growing costs come as lawmakers face a $3.2 billion shortfall in the next twoyear budget. Now, even longtime backers of the OWIN project doubt it can go forward.

“I think it’s imperative that the Legislature review this entire project,” said Sen. Betsy Johnson, D-Scappoose. “I can’t justify cutting essential services while we’re paying for radio towers in a project with an uncertain budget and timeline.”

The higher cost estimates emerged as officials at the Oregon Department of Transportation, which took over the project this spring, tried to make sense of OWIN’s progress to date.

“When you consider how far behind schedule we are and what it will take to get back on schedule, these are the costs of getting the job done,” said Tom Lauer, major projects branch manager for transportation department.

“I’m not trying to sugarcoat it.

We’re behind, and the costs go up. It is what it is.”

An outside audit released to The Oregonian provided a stinging critique of the project’s management under the previous director, Lindsay Ball, who retired in August. Ball did not respond to a request for an interview.

O B 6 indicted in Craigslist prostitution case ASHLAND — Two women and four men have been indicted by a Jackson County grand jury after police linked them to a prostitution ring advertised on Craigslist.

The Ashland Daily Tidings reported the men allegedly met the prostitutes at homes and motels, paying between $90 and $200 per visit.

Ashland police told the newspaper that investigators believe 36-year-old Annette Marie Wilson ran the ring that involved the exchange of hundreds of dollars between 13 men and two prostitutes in June.

Police also believe Wilson was involved in a fraudulent charity, the Haley Foundation, and claimed to have an education and treatment facility for children with disabilities.

Prosecutors said Wilson was indicted on one felony count of promoting prostitution and four misdemeanor counts of prostitution. The other five people indicted face misdemeanor charges.

As state cuts spending, families brace for less day care assistance DHS limiting subsidies offered to parents in transition off welfare

By Peter Wong (Salem) Statesman Journal

SALEM — When state subsidies for day care are cut next week, unless lawmakers intervene, the cut will affect more than the children who will lose care.

Crystal Lanier not only receives such assistance, she also teaches preschool at the Iris Valley Learning Center in Keizer where her son, 4, began as an infant. She is a single parent with four children.

“If the program goes away, I will lose everything,” she said Tuesday, while she and others visited lawmakers in hopes of winning a last-minute reprieve.

“I won’t be able to work, I won’t be able to afford day care, I don’t have family support here, and I’ll lose my home. Connie is my support.”

She was referring to Connie Williams, who owns the center, which is open 5 a.m. to midnight daily. Almost 60 percent of its 230 children depend on some form of state assistance.

“These are people who have worked hard to get off the system but are just receiving a little bit of assistance in child care,” Williams said. “If they take child care away, they will be right back where they started.”

Parents pay a portion Employment-related day care is available to families with household income of less than 185 percent of the federal poverty level, currently $40,800 for a family of four. Parents make co-payments based on income. Williams said they range from $20 to $500 at her center and the state pays the rest of approved day care rates that are set by ZIP code.

The program will not disappear entirely after Oct. 1.

PORTLAND — The state has denied a proposal to build a new hospital in St. Helens, saying its range of services would be too limited.

Oregon Public Health officials also said they rejected the Columbia Health District request for approval to build a 12-bed hospital because it would be costly and could have difficulty financially.

The state agency said the hospital could cost up to $45 million while a financial analysis found it was very unlikely that residents of the health district would see any significant savings.

The state also found the proposed hospital would offer an

extremely limited range of services with no surgery or maternity services.

Poached deer found under crashed truck EUGENE — Oregon State Police who responded to a pickup truck crash off a road near Noti found a dead deer underneath the vehicle.

The Register-Guard reported an investigation determined two Elmira men driving on IP Deeded Road on Sept. 15 shot the deer, which fell down an embankment.

The men were backing the truck to the road’s edge to retrieve the deer when the pickup rolled on top of the animal and into a tree.

Once the pickup was towed, a trooper noticed the deer had been shot. One man was cited for taking a deer out of season and the other for aiding in a wildlife violation.

Sawmill cleanup nearly done, firm says WARRENTON — Weyerhaeuser Co. says the cleanup of its former sawmill in Warrenton is nearly done.

The Daily Astorian reported the wood products giant based in Federal Way, Wash., has hauled away about 4,000 tons of gasoline-contaminated soil at the mill the company sold last December to Hampton Affiliates.

The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality said Weyerhaeuser has been removing soil and groundwater from a former fueling station at the mill for the past few weeks and work should be finished soon.

Weyerhaeuser officials declined to disclose the cost of the job under a voluntary agreement with the state. But a spokesman said the company was pleased to see the work near completion.

The new owners of the mill plan to reopen it in spring.

Minimum wage law harms jobless

T

here are at least two ways to bring low-end wages more into line with those on the rest of the economic spectrum, and, unfortunately, Oregonians are being subjected to

both of them.

One way affects nonminimum wage workers in this state. Per capita income dropped last year in Oregon, according to figures from the Oregon Center for Public Policy, to $35,667.

That’s below what it was in 2007. Adjusted for inflation, that translates into an $15.85 median hourly wage, down from $16.09 in 2001.

Wages will rise for entry level workers next year, however. Oregon’s minimum wage will go to $8.50 per hour, up from $8.40 this year. That’s because Oregonians approved a measure in 1996 that pegs the minimum wage to the Consumer Price Index, which rose about 1.15 percent last year.

Even with the 10-cent increase, Oregon’s minimum wage won’t be the highest in the nation. That honor goes to our neighbor to the north, where minimum wage earners are paid $8.55 per hour.

Their pay won’t go up, however.

The Washington attorney general has told his state’s Department of Labor and Industries that the minimum wage need not rise if the inflation rate still puts earnings below what they were a year ago.

Neither Washington nor Oregon can do what was done in Colorado this year, however. There, the minimum wage not only goes up when inflation increases, but it also goes down when the opposite occurs. It fell by 3 cents this year.

That’s at least fair, it seems to us. In Oregon, the bottom line is that while

While automatic hikes and an already lofty minimum wage are good for people lucky enough to have jobs, they’re bad for others who are crowded out of the workplace as a result. the guy who works at a fast-food restaurant can expect a raise next year, the guy who runs the place probably is making less and being taxed more for the privilege.

Even if he can keep his business afloat under such conditions, he’s much less likely to hire additional people than he would be otherwise. Thus, while automatic hikes and an already lofty minimum wage are good for people lucky enough to have jobs, they’re bad for others who are crowded out of the workplace as a result.

Sooner or later, the state Legislature will recognize the connection between Oregon’s appalling unemployment rate and policies, like the everincreasing minimum wage, that harm employers and would-be employees alike.

Lawmakers aren’t to blame for Oregon’s minimum wage, but they could, if they chose, ask voters to amend it.

If they care about employment levels and economic competitiveness, they will.

House Democrats tell a tax whopper A political campaign just wouldn’t be a political campaign without a few exaggerated claims and off-base accusations. Some distortions are minor, and others fairly significant.

But it’s hard to beat the whopper that Oregon House Democrats are spreading through their campaign organization, Future PAC. Future PAC has distributed campaign literature accusing Republicans in at least three races of supporting a sales tax of up to 30 percent. Thirty percent! We have no idea what kind of gullible person would believe such an outlandish claim, but the House Democrats apparently believe some people will believe anything.

But even outlandish accusations are usually based upon some real event, and this one’s no different.

According to The Oregonian, Democrats say that all of the candidates targeted by Future PAC’s advertising either belong to the Oregon chapter of Americans for Prosperity or have attended events held by the group. And

the Oregon chapter of Americans for Prosperity, they say, has supported a proposal by Washington, D.C.-based Americans for Fair Taxation to create a “flat tax.” This plan would eliminate the federal income tax and replace it with a sales tax.

Jeff Kropf, who heads the Oregon chapter of Americans for Prosperity, says his group has taken no position on the flat tax. And in any case, replacing the income tax with a sales tax is a very different thing than simply creating an exorbitant sales tax, as the Democrats’ advertisment suggests.

We doubt many voters will be taken in by this claim, which actually reflects much more unfavorably on House Democrats than it does on their targets. As Nick Smith, spokesman for the House Republicans told The Oregonian, “The Democrats are desperate. They’re faced with losing their super-majority …” And thanks to their sales-tax whopper, Democrats now appear every bit as desperate as Smith says they are.

County’s siting process limited IN MY VIEW

By Foster Fell Bulletin guest columnist

I

volunteer for candidates who acknowledge the plight of the neediest among us, and I work for passage of tax measures that fund services to help them. I support the principle of deinstitutionalization; my own kid sister, a Down syndrome child, spent most of her short life in a Pennsylvania state hospital, which was revealed to have been a hellish, abuse-riddled warehouse for forgotten souls. For a career, I chose health care work.

Our house is next door to the Northeast 12th Street Telecare Corporation residential treatment facility. We will welcome the staff and residents wholeheartedly. We hope to invite each other over for backyard get-togethers.

Yet, I continue to feel a gnawing sense of betrayal over the way in which Deschutes County government and Telecare sited these facilities.

ORS 197 prohibits local governments from denying applications for the siting of a residential treatment home in a residential zone. The Fair Housing Act and the ADA give governments the authority to forgo notifying neighbors.

Nevertheless, county commissioners could legally have chosen to hold open hearings, present their case and engage in constructive dialogue. In bypassing these normal routes of democratic participation, they set the stage for a perfect storm of surprise, alarm and indignation when word finally got out Whether the parents are ultimately justified in their fears does not take away from the fact that they are now fearful, and that no precautions were taken to put their fears to rest. Even representatives of the mental health community advocate timely public disclosure.

An article in “Community Mental Health Journal” (Vol. 26, No. 2, 1998)

recommends “ … early community mental health education, involvement of community leaders in the planning, application of the knowledge and skills of social psychology in dealing with public panic, and cooperation with the mass media to reach the public.”

In the Dec. 19, 2008, Atlanta JournalConstitution, Dr. Thomas Bornemann, director of the mental health program at the Carter Center, writes, “This time of crisis calls for a new way of doing business that opens doors to policymaking through optimal transparency and public engagement. (The Georgia Department of Human Resources) must do a better job of soliciting public comment especially by those most affected — consumers, families, and mental health professionals — before decisions are made, not after. … We cannot ask for less for those with mental illnesses who have been entrusted to the state for safe, humane and appropriate care.”

Before the selection of a site is made for a group home, the whole community must be involved, so there is mutual understanding of the needs of the individuals to be served and the needs of the neighbors.

Instead of capitulating to the county’s intention to ignore, marginalize and outlast them, northeast neighbors turned up the pressure until, finally, they were able to procure time at the Sept. 15, 1:30 p.m., commissioners’ work session.

Those who support the current trend toward privatization of government functions should know Telecare procured especially sweet contract terms: The county’s role shrinks, and it now functions solely as a reimbursement agent, handing over public funds to Telecare to ensure its operations, staff

and profits are covered. As for the defined criteria for site locations (supposedly access to transportation, treatment etc.), it seems to me the objective was to acquire properties best suited as investment opportunities for Telecare.

(Also needing to be addressed is the disproportionate siting of these facilities on the east side. ORS 197 states, “It is the policy of this state to integrate residential facilities into the communities of this state. The objective of integration cannot be accomplished if residential facilities are concentrated in any one area.”)

Especially troubling are staffing provisions for these facilities. The personal service coordinator position, which, describes the on-site caretaker, requires only a high school education or G.E.D., and will be compensated at a midpoint salary of $11.72. Will the residents, at this critical stage in their reassimilation into society, be best served by underpaid, uncredentialed staff? Does Deschutes County need more sub-living wage jobs like this?

(In North Carolina’s conversion, the takeover by unqualified private companies, which perform many psychiatric functions, has wasted $400 million, according to state auditors.)

A recent Bulletin guest columnist speculated that northeast neighborhood parents are currently teaching their children to stigmatize the mentally ill. No, this is definitely not a torch and pitchfork crowd. (One neighborhood leader emphatically drew the line, stating he would refuse to picket any facility out of concern for the wellbeing of the residents.)

More likely, these children will long remember instead the resentment of their parents at being ignored and disempowered by their government.

Deschutes treatment homes won’t hurt neighborhoods

By Scott Johnson and Steve Wellbourn Bulletin guest columnists

R

ecently, there has been much media coverage about the opening of two new Bend residential treatment homes for people with mental illness. Concerns have been raised about process, choice of placement and other concerns that have nothing to do with mental illness. Yet there currently are over 200 licensed, five-bed or under residential programs in Deschutes County serving other special needs populations (seniors, children, and people with developmental disabilities). None of these 200-plus homes has generated the media attention and fury that the two homes have. Perhaps we need to consider that mental illness plays a significant part.

What do you think of when you hear the words “mental illness?” Does your mind succumb to the myth of a violent, dangerous and unpredictable “crazy person?” Or do you envision an ordinary person who has a treatable illness that prevents them from getting the things in life important

to all of us — a safe home, good relationships, recreational opportunities and productive activities to help fill our days?

Sadly, far too many people hold to the inaccurate stereotype of the mentally ill as violent and dangerous. In reality, the vast majority of people with mental illness are no more violent than anyone else, and in fact, are more likely to be the victims of violent behavior.

The National Institute of Mental Health estimates that 6 percent of all Americans suffer from serious mental illness (schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, severe depression, etc.). In Deschutes County, that would be about 10,000 people. Many are not able to access treatment.

Virtually everyone who is mentally ill was leading a normal life before illness struck. They were and are someone’s child, parent, or spouse. As their illness worsened, they may have experienced symptoms or behaviors that caused more attention or required more intervention, perhaps culminating with a stay at the State Hospital. With successful treatment, medication and therapy, they be-

IN MY VIEW came ready to return to community life.

Living in a residential setting with on-site staff 24 hours a day provides an invaluable transition back to community life. With support from Telecare, an experienced organization working elsewhere in Oregon, and Deschutes County Health Services, they’ll receive good care and support, 24-hour awake supervision and treatment. They’ll learn life skills, will live their lives, shop and recreate like the rest of us. They will learn to better manage their illness. Perhaps they will get a job. They are likely to move to independent living down the road.

While living in the homes, privileges to come and go independently come as part of participation in a treatment regimen.

The residents are also subject to a curfew: 10 p.m. nightly, unless some activity requires a later time. Remember, they’re patients, not prisoners.

These homes are in good, quiet neighbors. The Bend Police Department re-

ports that in the last three years there was no adverse unsafe contact with neighbors at any of the existing Bend treatment homes. Residents deserve to live in good, quiet neighborhoods, not in ghettoes or dank industrial areas.

It’s vitally important that we as a society provide as many treatment options possible, to reach as many people as possible. Without appropriate treatment, people with mental illness are more likely to experience the ravages of their disease, having a negative impact on themselves and their ability to function safely within the community. Additional residential treatment and supportive housing is long overdue in our area. While there are 243 licensed sites in Oregon serving 1,670 people with mental illness, there are only three licensed sites in Central Oregon serving 15 people with mental illness. To that end, the homes about to open in Bend are critical components of a treatment continuum, and more are needed.

It is important to stress that the support and structure in these homes is what

helps create success for the residents and a positive experience for the community.

The people living in these homes are selected because they are ready for this next step in their lives. Each resident has an individual plan that is designed to make this a successful experience.

The mentally ill are not some “other” group to be feared, they are fellow citizens who must be embraced by society and be given opportunities to succeed. People with mental illness may travel a difficult path, perhaps more like a long, slow trek climbing South Sister instead of a leisurely stroll along the Deschutes River. When they climb that mountain and face east, we want them to know our towns and neighborhoods are caring communities, and that we’ll welcome them home. The new treatment homes in Bend will go a long way toward achieving that vision.

Housing Continued from C1 Tribal leaders and HUD officials are expected to meet sometime in early October to discuss ways to resolve the agency’s concerns, said HUD spokesman Leland Jones. As examples of the lack of stable management, HUD cited the tribes’ decision to fire Housing Authority Executive Director Jeff Sanders and replace him with someone without experience managing a housing agency and the fact that the tribal council suspended the housing authority’s board of commissioners twice in the past five years.

In late March, HUD issued a warning letter, noting that the tribes had failed to make progress on eight of 10 major violations of federal regulations flagged in a January 2009 report on

Hilda Irene (Swanson) Holmer Hilda Holmer passed away on September 16, 2010, in Bend, Oregon. She was born in Eugene, Oregon on January 14, 1934, to Theodore and Opal (Barnes) Swanson.

She grew up along with her older sister, Hilda Holmer Fredaberg ‘(Freda) Helene (Swanson) Stores on the farm that her grandparents, Louis and Jennie Swanson homesteaded in 1891, located eight miles up Deadwood Creek, in the early days called Alpha, Oregon.

She attended a one-room schoolhouse, all eight grades, five miles up Deadwood Creek, school district number 112. Her father (Theodore Swanson) was the Postmaster at Alpha in their home until it was discontinued in 1940, and moved to Swisshome, Oregon and then to Deadwood, located at the mouth of Deadwood Creek on Highway 36.

Through her teen years, she worked on the farm and learned to drive a Ford tractor, which she enjoyed very much. After leaving home and starting out on her own, she worked in homes caring for children while their mothers worked. During this time, she met Wallace (Wally’ Holmer). They were married on October 6, 1959, in Eugene, Oregon. They resided in Eugene for the first few

years, then moved to Bend, Oregon, where they purchased their present home. Her husband, Wally, was a barber in Bend for many years.

In Bend, Hilda worked for North Pacific Products as a machine operator making plastic toys, she later worked for the Forest Service sorting baby trees, and she sold Avon products.

Hilda was preceded in death by her parents.

She is survived by her husband, Wally of Bend, and four step-children, Lavone, Stephen (Steve), Leland (Lee), and Duane. She is survived by numerous grandchildren; Teletha, Tikal, Lemal, Bethany, Adam, Jessica, Phillip (Phil) , Leanna, Danny, Chris, Preston; greatgrandchildren, Lenda, Alena, Dana, and Ella.

She is also survived by her sister, Freda Swanson of Eugene, OR; nieces, Christine (Chris) is married to Jim Singleton of Eugene, OR; Kathy is married to Darrel Foster of Salem, OR; nephews, Mike (Bonnie) Stores of Sherwood, OR; Abe (Cathy) Stores of Milwaukie, OR; Ben (Andre) Stores of Clackamas, OR, and numerous great-nieces and great-nephews.

Hilda Irene Holmer’s funeral was conducted by Niswonger -Reynolds Funeral Home. She was buried on September 21, 2010, in Bend, Oregon, at Deschutes Memorial Gardens in the Aspen Garden, plot number 11-A1.

Works compiled, edited by Pirozhkova The two-volume collection of Babel’s works that Pirozhkova compiled and edited remains the most complete edition in Russian. It was published in 1990.

Her memoir, “At His Side: The Last Years of Isaac Babel,” was published in the United States

by Steerforth Press in 1996 and in 2001 appeared in a Russian edition.

Sharply written and full of insights about Babel’s character and life under Stalin, the book was well received. “Babel would have enjoyed Ms. Pirozhkova’s book, concise and full of bright incident,” Richard Lourie wrote in The New York Times Book Review.

the tribes’ $1.4 million annual Indian Housing Block Grant. The grant is intended to pay for houses and apartments for low-income residents of the Warm Springs Reservation.

The 2009 HUD audit found that 91 percent of housing authority rental units had health and safety violations, including no working smoke detector in 63 percent of the rental units, poor-quality work such as unsafe water heater installation in 42 percent of the units, and major maintenance issues, including fire damage, exposed wiring and electrical shorts, in 64 percent of the units.

Earlier HUD audits, dating back to 2003, had uncovered misuse of federal funds, such as staff and board members claiming travel expenses without receipts, although HUD gave credit to tribes for improving financial oversight over the past three years. Most recent-

memorials and commemorations of his birth and helping scholars do research in her personal archives, stored in her apartment in Moscow.

She was particularly concerned with securing the return of unpublished manuscripts seized by the KGB. Their fate remains unknown. In 1972 she compiled and published, in Russian, “I. Babel Recalled by His Contemporaries,” a collection of firsthand biographical material.

Babel’s “1920 Diary,” which she transcribed, presented the raw material that the author drew on for “Red Cavalry,” his most celebrated work. The diary was published in the United States by Yale University Press in 1995.

Continued from C1 He tells his mother to turn on a light and asks her, “Where did you shoot him? Where is he?”

When the dispatcher asks for more details, Mathew explains that his mother shot her husband with a .22-caliber revolver.

“Where did she hit him?” the dispatcher asks.

“In the stomach … six times,” Mathew answers, then seems to direct the question to his mother: “How many times?”

He says the pistol is still loaded and offers to unload it, but the dispatcher orders him not to touch it.

As the dispatcher assures Mathew that emergency responders are on their way, the teen’s mother can be heard in the background, crying.

“Don’t touch him, mom,” Mathew says. “There’s a lot of help coming.”

Three minutes into the call, the teenager remains calm as he describes his father’s condition. He tells the dispatcher that Stephen Trono is conscious,

By Dennis McLellan Los Angeles Times

Judith Merkle Riley, a longtime associate professor of government at Claremont McKenna College and the author of internationally best-selling historical novels, has died. She was 68.

Riley died of ovarian cancer Sept. 12 at her home in Claremont, Calif., said her daughter, Elizabeth Riley.

Riley, who taught under her maiden name, joined the government department faculty at Claremont McKenna and the faculty of Claremont Graduate School in 1982.

She taught organization and management, public and comparative administration, political ideologies, and health care and public policy.

In 1985, she became the first woman to obtain tenure in the government department at the college, which was founded as Claremont Men’s College and became coeducational in 1976.

“Judith was a supremely gifted storyteller, teacher and colleague, with penetrating social-science insights as to the various ways that people arrange their lives, with a special flair for the odd, outlandish, dramatic and funny ones,” Ward Elliott, a longtime friend and colleague, said in an obituary on the college website.

“She had a wicked, perceptive sense of humor and a native

cheerfulness and zest which she kept to the end,” he said.

As an author, Riley wrote six historical novels that were published between 1989 and 1999.

“A Vision of Light,” “In Pursuit of the Green Lion” and “The Water Devil” formed a trilogy set in 14th century medieval England. “The Oracle Glass” was set in 17th century Paris, “The Serpent Garden” in 16th century England and France. And her final novel, “The Master of All Desires,” was set in 16th century France.

“If all the chronicles of earthly life were recorded with such drama, flair and wit, the world would be filled with history majors,” Betty Lukas wrote in her 1989 Los Angeles Times review of “A Vision of Light,” Riley’s first novel.

Riley’s “wonderfully entertaining historical novels are marked by her deep understanding of life and the human condition,” Jean Naggar, Riley’s longtime literary agent, said in an e-mail. “Her remarkable talents as a storyteller rely on her relentless research, her intellectual rigor and her wry satiric wit.”

Her protagonists, Naggar said, “are women and she was deeply engaged in the conflicts that shaped the lives of strong women from the Middle Ages to the French courts of the Renaissance.”

ly, the tribes improperly accounted for $1.4 million in federal funds, according to HUD investigators. The tribes disputed that finding.

Warm Springs resident Doug Jackson said in late August that the housing authority’s record has been spotty when it comes to making repairs at his home. The agency fixed some of the problems with his house, including replacing a broken window, after they were featured in The Bulletin in March. But Jackson, who couldn’t be reached on Wednesday, said that other problems — including malfunctioning smoke detectors — have been ignored.

“We have four smoke alarms on our table right here,” Jackson said. “I don’t know what their problem is.”

Tickets for the 4:30 p.m. reception with Kristof at Broken Top Club, which include premium seating for the event at the Tower Theatre, are $125. For more information or to get tickets for the reception, e-mail kaylward@cocc.edu or call 541-383-7257.

The Nancy R. Chandler Visiting Scholar Program was established in 1985 by the late Robert W. Chandler, a longtime editor of The Bulletin, and his wife, Nancy. It brings scholars to Central Oregon to present lectures and workshops.

breathing and bleeding, though he says the bleeding doesn’t look serious.

“Ask what we can do, ask what we can do!” Angelicque shouts.

Waiting for help

Just after eight minutes have passed, police arrive and Mathew hangs up.

Records show that about a half-dozen officers were dispatched to the house, along with medics.

After Stephen Trono was loaded in an ambulance headed for the hospital, 911 records indicate that two officers headed to the Bend Police Department with Angelicque Trono and another witness. In the hours after the shooting, detectives scoured the scene, using a metal detector to search around the house.

Over the next few weeks, they interviewed people who know the couple, but have not released any new details.

The dispatcher tells Mathew to get a clean shirt or towel and apply pressure to the wounds.

“Your mom sounds a little upset, which is understandable right now,” the dispatcher says.

“And I need somebody that’s in a little more control to help me, OK?” Mathew says he’s found a towel and follows the dispatcher’s instructions, asking if an ambulance is on its way.

“We’ve got the ambulance and half the Bend Police Department, so these questions aren’t slowing them down at all,” the dispatcher says.

Mathew tells the dispatcher that he, his father and the gun are all in the den. Near the end of the call, he says his father seems to be having trouble breathing, and is making a “grunting, whisper” sound.

No charges have been filed in the case.

Lt. Ben Gregory said this week he couldn’t confirm any of the information from the 911 tape, because details — like the number of shots fired and the type of weapon used — are crucial to the investigation.

He said it’s important that de-

program. Without more music opportunities at Tumalo, some students were unable to reach their potential, Lynnea said.

“I just feel that we’re losing something so important. There could be a kid here at Tumalo who has a thing for music, but they can’t expand,” Lynnea said. “I understand money. I just think that’s a big concern for me.”

Tumalo teachers at the meeting praised the district’s return to a five-day schedule. The dis-

trict adopted a four-day schedule for the 2009-10 school year as part of budget cuts that included laying off 59 teachers.

Redmond schools saved about $4 million through the moves.

The five-day schedule returned this year.

Several teachers at the meeting described last year’s schedule as difficult and harried.

“Last year it was manic,” said fourth-grade teacher Andy Ausfahl. “It’s really good to be back to a pace that is more

tectives talk to Trono about the incident before moving forward with the case.

“His medical condition is preventing him from talking,” Gregory said. “What we have to take into consideration is what kind of medications he’s taking … At this point, we will wait until the doctor tells us he is OK to interview.”

Gregory said detectives want to talk to Trono as soon as he’s ready, even if he has to stay in Portland.

“Our intention has been all along to go where he’s at,” he said.

Trono is the founder of the Trono Company, which offers management, marketing and sales consulting services.

He’s been involved with several developments in Central Oregon. For the past few years, he’s been working on a mixeduse development called Mercato, planned for the former site of the Brooks-Scanlon crane shed in The Old Mill District.

manageable.”

Superintendent Shay Mikalson urged people at the meeting to encourage others in the district to attend the future school visits. If no one goes to the meetings, he said, the district doesn’t learn as much.

“We are here to listen,” Mikalson said. “It’d be a boring listening session if no one came.”

Meteorite kept in coffee can turns into a star Rare space rock found in Oregon in ‘76 now drawing worldwide interest

By Richard Cockle The Oreg onian

PORTLAND — It rattled around in an old Folgers can for 30 years in Paul Albertson’s Lakeview garage before he found out what it really was — an interplanetary space traveler.

Now the thumb-size Fitzwater Pass meteorite that he picked up in 1976 while hunting for agates and jasper is generating interest from scientists worldwide.

Only the sixth meteorite found

in Oregon and the second discovered east of the Oregon Cascades, it’s “a small, iron meteorite, and it’s one of the rare types of iron,” said Dick Pugh, a scientist with the Cascadia Meteorite Laboratory at Portland State University.

Chemical analysis has determined that the 63.6 gram (about 2 ounces) space rock belongs to the IIIF iron meteorite group, which includes only eight other recognized meteorites across the globe, said Lyn Craig, of Fossil, executive

director of the nonprofit Libraries of Eastern Oregon. The libraries, with funding help from NASA, have sponsored Pugh to speak to more than four dozen public libraries in 15 eastern Oregon counties over the past year or two.

Albertson, 58, a retired postal worker, got his first fateful glimpse of the burned and cratered little meteorite while rock hunting 20 miles southwest of Lakeview in the Fitzwater Pass area. He remembers that it first

appeared to be part of a broken axle from a frontier-era wagon.

“When I picked it up, I thought it was a piece of a wagon hub,” he said. “There used to be a wagon trail in that area.”

Albertson took it to a local rock shop and was told it was worthless nickel ore. He tossed it into a coffee can, where it remained with some arrowheads, fossils and pottery shards for the next three decades.

He got an inkling that it might be something more when he attended a lecture on meteorites by Pugh at the Lake County Public

Library in 2006. After Pugh had a long look at it, Albertson agreed to provide a slice of less than an ounce to PSU. It was carefully scrutinized by Alex Ruzicka and Melinda Hutson of the meteorite laboratory and Stephen Kissin of Lakehead University in Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada.

They ruled it was indeed a meteorite, and an uncommon one at that. The delayed discovery is attracting a lot of attention to the high desert and mountains where Albertson found the rock.

“We’re looking for more pieces associated with Fitzwater Pass,”

Pugh said in a statement. “We don’t know for sure whether this is a single or multiple meteorite fall.”

He won’t release a photo of the Fitzwater Pass meteorite until Monday, when a news conference is scheduled at the Lakeview library to unveil the find. Pugh believes other Oregonians probably have unknowingly picked up meteorite chunks and they’re even now languishing “on shelves, in basements, barns and workshops” around the state.

“I’m always looking,” Albertson said. “Everybody should be looking.”

Misery makes a hunter GARY LEWIS

W

e had a good gully washer on Friday night. In the morning, we walked into a field of soaked sorghum, oats, sunflowers, corn, red wheat, crested wheat and great basin wild rye. Alexa Eicher, 14, carried her first hunting license and a 20-gauge Mossberg pump shotgun.

Last year, when her brother Paxton brought home his first blacktail deer, their mother, Diana, whispered to me that Alexa wanted to hunt.

With lifted eyebrow, I inquired and she assured

me that she would take the class and pass it.

Under the tutelage of the good and faithful of the Oregon Hunters Association and the Oregon Department of HUNTING Fish and Wildlife’s High Des& FISHING ert Region, she emerged with a bright and shiny Hunter Education card.

One of the first things a new hunter should experience is misery. Perhaps after a proper amount of discomfort there can be a measure of success, but just enough success, like the cackle of a wild pheasant that draws the hunter back to the field.

Our hunting party was properly equipped for a measure of misery.

CORRECTION A story headlined “Mountain View girls soccer wins again” which appeared Sunday, Sept. 19, on Page D5, included incorrect information about Redmond cross-country runner Tefna Mitchell’s finish at the South Salem Invitational. Mitchell, a sophomore, placed fourth overall in the girls race.

For amateur athletes, competing within their age group in a running or cycling

race in Central Oregon and hoping for a top finish is often an exercise in futility.

Even in endurance events staged outside Central Oregon, athletes from Bend sometimes dominate.

“Any race in the Pacific Northwest, there’s going to be people from Bend,” says Bend triathlete Karen Oppenheimer.

“And generally they do pretty well.”

That will probably hold true for this Saturday’s 2010 XTERRA USA Championship in Ogden, Utah, where six athletes from Bend will compete in the off-road triathlon that consists of a 1½kilometer lake swim, a 30K mountain bike ride and a 10K trail run.

Those triathletes include a three-time XTERRA triathlon world champion, a husband and wife, and two good friends who push each other to their limits in training.

Panthers blow lead, rally for draw Bulletin staff report Emotions ran wild Wednesday as Redmond squandered an early lead before rallying back for a 3-3 draw against host Mountain View in an Intermountain Conference boys soccer match.

The Panthers (3-0-1 IMC, 3-0-1 overall) dominated the first half of play according to both teams’ coaches, scoring twice in the game’s first 30 minutes. But Redmond senior Tre Buerger drew a red card just before halftime, forcing the Panthers to play the entire second half a man down. “(Redmond) owned us the first half,” Mountain View coach Chris Rogers said about the visiting Panthers. “They did everything they wanted to against us. But that card was the turning point in the game.”

Playing with a one-man advantage, the Cougars (0-1-1 IMC, 1-2-3) came out after halftime pressing from the start.

It should come as no surprise that Central Oregon would be well-represented at a national event that includes sports that have become synonymous with the region.

Conrad Stoltz, a part-time Bend resident from South Africa, should secure his eighth XTERRA USA Series title on Saturday. And he will be looking for his fourth world title at the XTERRA World Championship on the Hawaiian Island of Maui on Oct. 24.

Wide-open Pac-10 starting off strong

By John Marshall The Associated Press

Ryan Brennecke / The Bulletin

Mountain View’s Miguel Molina (18) watches the ball fly toward Redmond goalie Ulisses Faurrieta (1) for a goal after connecting off a header from a corner kick during the second half of Wednesday’s game in Bend.

PHOENIX — The preseason chatter among the Pac-10’s coaches centered around this being one of the most wide-open years in conference history.

So far, they seem to be right.

Heading into the first big weekend of conference games, the Pac-10 has five teams in the top 25 and enough talent throughout to make the schedule feel like a gauntlet of big games.

“I think every (conference) game is going to be the Super Bowl,” Oregon coach Chip Kelly said.

The only separation appears to be at the top, where three teams have emerged as front-runners: Oregon, Arizona and Stanford.

Dominant and exciting to watch, the Ducks, Wildcats and Cardinal are among the best teams in the country, not just the conference.

The rest of the Pac-10 has been a sometimes hard-to-figure collection of similarly talented teams.

S B Golf • Woods’ caddie, 2 others bumped from charter: Tiger Woods will be joining the U.S. Ryder Cup team on a charter flight to Wales. His caddie is on his own. Steve Williams and two other caddies — Frank Williams (Stewart Cink) and Joe Skovron (Rickie Fowler) — have been bumped off the U.S. team’s charter plane to the Ryder Cup because the plane is not big enough for everyone. Also on the charter, in coach seats, will be several fans who bought seats through a special Ryder Cup package. Instead of the three caddies flying coach, Mason said the PGA is reimbursing them for business-class seats on flights originating from wherever they live. Steve Williams, who is from New Zealand, has a summer home in Sunriver. Frank Williams is in Utah, while Skovron lives in the San Diego area.

Auto racing • Bowyer’s car fails inspection; he loses 150 points: Clint Bowyer’s NASCAR championship chances were crippled Wednesday when his car failed a follow-up inspection and he was penalized 150 points after winning last weekend’s first race of the Chase for the Sprint Cup. NASCAR also fined crew chief Shane Wilson $150,000 and suspended him for the next six Sprint Cup races. Car chief Chad Haney was also suspended six races, and team owner Richard Childress was docked 150 owner points. Bowyer was permitted to keep Sunday’s victory at New Hampshire — NASCAR does not typically strip wins — and an official said the Richard Childress Racing team probably was punished enough.

Basketball • New NBA jerseys meant to absorb less sweat: Dwight Howard proudly recalls making a three-pointer during the last All-Star game. It must have been the shirt. The NBA is rolling out new uniforms, a lighter model tested during the All-Star game, and Howard says they’ll improve his performance. “It’s just like the shoes,” the Orlando Magic center said. “The lighter the shoes, the faster you are, the higher you may jump.” The new uniforms, called the NBA Revolution 30, were introduced Wednesday by the league and Adidas at the NBA Store. The company says the uniforms are 30 percent lighter and will dry twice as fast as previous uniforms.

Tennis • U.S. to play at Chile in first round of 2011 Davis Cup: The United States will travel to Chile in the first round of World Group play in the 2011 Davis Cup, its second South American opponent in a row. The U.S. or Chile will face the powerful Spaniards or outsider Belgium in the quarterfinals.

Serbia, a finalist this year, will open against India at home.

Fellow finalist France will travel to Austria. The first round is March 4-6 and the quarterfinals are set for July 8-10.

Football • NCAA suspends UNC players: The NCAA suspended North Carolina defensive back Kendric Burney six games and safety Deunta Williams four games on Wednesday for receiving improper benefits. Both players must also repay benefits to become eligible, though the school plans to appeal the length of the suspensions. In a news release, the NCAA said Burney received $1,333 in benefits while Williams received $1,426 in benefits.

• Seattle LB Leroy Hill out with right leg injury: Seattle linebacker Leroy Hill will miss several games with an injury to the Achilles’ area of his right leg. Seahawks coach Pete Carroll didn’t give specifics Wednesday about Hill’s injury. It was originally announced as a calf strain, but Carroll said it was more in the Achilles’ area. Hill has been wearing a protective boot since being hurt early in last Sunday’s game against Denver.

• Bucs S Tanard Jackson suspended by NFL: Tampa Bay’s improved defense was dealt a blow Wednesday when safety Tanard Jackson was suspended for a minimum of a year without pay for violating the NFL’s substance abuse policy. The league made the announcement, saying the fourth-year pro has been suspended indefinitely but will be eligible for reinstatement beginning Sept. 22, 2011.

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL

U.S. aims to reclaim gold at hoops worlds

By Doug Feinberg The Associated Press

OSTRAVA, Czech Republic — Geno Auriemma is a master motivator.

He doesn’t need to say much to remind the U.S. women’s basketball team that it is not the defending world champions.

“They know what’s at stake here,” Auriemma said. “They know what happened in 2006.”

Sue Bird, Tamika Catchings and Diana Taurasi played on that third-place team. Even though they won a gold medal in the 2008 Beijing Olympics, the loss to Russia at worlds is still fresh in their minds.

“It definitely is a motivator for those of us that were on that team,” Catchings said. “I can still remember how I felt after the game sitting in the locker room. We sat there in our uniforms for probably a good 45 minutes to an hour even after the game like, ‘OK, what just happened?’ ” The U.S. will open group play today against Greece, which is making its first appearance in the world championship.

The Americans, who haven’t gone consecutive worlds without winning a gold medal since 197175, haven’t had much time as a team to prepare for the tournament. Wednesday marked the first day that the entire group practiced together because of the WNBA playoffs.

Bird and Swin Cash led the Seattle Storm past Angel McCoughtry and the Atlanta Dream for the WNBA title last week. All three arrived in the Czech Republic on Tuesday.

“It definitely isn’t something I’m used to,” Auriemma said. “We’ve had our group together for one day and trying to get everything in place.

I’m just excited to get this underway.”

Auriemma is already familiar with half his

Diana Taurasi looks to lead the U.S. women’s basketball team against Greece in the world championship today in the Czech Republic. squad. Six players, including current senior Maya Moore, have been coached by him at Connecticut.

“The familiarity helps in that they know the system, but getting used to playing with each other on the court takes time,” the 56-year-old coach said.

Moore joined Candace Parker (2006) and

Chamique Holdsclaw (1998) as the only collegians to play for the U.S. at this tournament in the past 12 years.

The U.S. success may hinge on center Sylvia Fowles’ left knee. She had surgery to repair a torn meniscus before the start of training camp in September. The 6-foot-6 star has only been able to take part in full practice for two days, but is getting more comfortable on the court.

“The knee is feeling great,” said Fowles after practice Wednesday. “It hasn’t been giving me any problems. I’m feeling 100 percent and excited to be back on the court.”

The U.S. is already missing Parker, who injured her left shoulder early in the WNBA summer season and is unable to play.

“The post play is definitely a concern, we have a lot of young talent but there is a lot of size out there on the other teams,” Auriemma said.

While Fowles works her way back into shape, the onus will be on Tina Charles — the WNBA rookie of the year.

After playing Greece, the Americans will face France and Senegal in their group. The top three teams advance to the second round. Defending champion Australia, China, Canada and Belarus are in the other group playing in Ostrava.

The Australians, led by WNBA MVP Lauren Jackson, look again to be the main competition for the Americans.

Russia, which beat the U.S. in the 2006 semifinals in Brazil, is in Group D along with Argentina, Japan, and the host Czech Republic. Brazil, Spain, Mali, and South Korea make up the other group playing in Brno.

The gold-medal game will be played on Oct. 3 in Karlovy Vary.

MA JOR L E A GUE B A SE BA L L NL ROUNDUP Phillies 1, Braves 0 PHILADELPHIA — Roy Oswalt and two relievers combined on a one-hitter and NL East-leading Philadelphia beat Atlanta, the Phillies’ 10th straight win that increased their lead over the Braves to six games. Raul Ibanez hit an RBI double with two outs in the eighth inning for the only run, helping the two-time NL champions reduce their magic number for clinching their fourth straight division title to four. It was the Phillies’ first home sweep over the Braves since 2001.

AL ROUNDUP Rays 7, Yankees 2 NEW YORK — Carl Crawford and Evan Longoria hit consecutive homers and Tampa Bay feasted on a fallible New York bullpen after a long rain delay took some of the luster out of a key September matchup.

Dan Johnson hit his third homer against New York in a week, and the Rays’ bullpen outpitched the pinstriped relievers to help Tampa Bay pull within 1½ games of New York in the AL East.

White Sox 4, Athletics 3 OAKLAND, Calif. — Mark Teahen hit a go-ahead double with two outs in the ninth right after pinch-hitter Mark Kotsay’s tying RBI single and Chicago rallied past Oakland to end a season-worst eight-game skid. The White Sox got to Oakland’s shorthanded bullpen, scoring twice against Brad Ziegler (3-5). The right-hander hadn’t given up a run in his previous 12 appearances.

Kuchar again the talk of Atlanta on eve of Tour Championship

Cougs improve to 6-0 with win over Redmond Bulletin staff report REDMOND — McKayla Madison dished out a pair of assists Wednesday as Mountain View topped Intermountain Conference rival Redmond 3-0 in girls soccer action.

Madison connected with Edna Ibarra in the 19th minute to give the Cougars (2-0 IMC, 6-0 overall) an early 1-0 lead. Tash Anderson scored 17 minutes later off a Niki Ryan assist, and Mountain View led 2-0 at the half.

Madison posted her second assist of the game in the 52nd minute when Molly McCool scored to give the Cougars a 3-0 lead.

Redmond coach Hector West pointed out the play of goalkeeper Lauren Wellman, who limited the Cougars to just one score in the second half.

Mountain View continues IMC play on Tuesday with a home game against reigning Class 5A state champion Bend High. Redmond (1-3 IMC, 1-3 overall) starts Class 6A Special District 1 play on Tuesday with a home match against Lincoln High of Portland.

In other prep events Wednesday: CROSS COUNTRY Steele wins at home for Sisters SISTERS — Outlaw senior Taylor Steele won the boys race at the Sisters Barbecue Run at the Cold Springs Campgrounds, besting runners from six schools with a time of 17 minutes, 2 seconds. Mason Calmettes placed fourth to give the Outlaws two runners among the top five boys finishers. South Albany’s Anna Demchuk posted the top time in the girls race, winning the event in 21:46. Katie Stewart (sixth), Hayley Palmer (seventh) and Kirsten Clarke (10th) all recorded top-10 finishes for the Outlaws.

The Lava Bears (2-0 COL) are off until Friday, Oct. 1, when they play a nonconference match against Marist of Eugene.

Panthers Continued from D1 Brandon Hargous scored less than a minute into the second half to make the score 2-1 before Miguel Molina tied the league match 2-2 in the 55th minute, heading in a Jose Escobedo corner kick.

“We attacked with everything we had,” Rogers said about his team’s second-half strategy.

“We were rolling. They had no answers.”

Three minutes into stoppage time, Mountain View appeared to have stolen the win after Mike Wood punched in the Cougars’ third goal of the half. Redmond shocked Mountain View, though, with a goal of its own less than two minutes later. Mizael Ramirez scored off a Johny Estrada assist to keep the Panthers undefeated.

“We just kept fighting,” said Redmond coach Jason Clark. “You could see it in their eyes. We were not going to lose that soccer game.”

The Panthers, who defeated Mountain View 4-2 on Sept. 7, started hot again Wednesday and threatened to blow out the Cougars on their home field. Alex Mendez gave Redmond a 1-0 lead 10 minutes into the game off a Shane Buerger assist, and Humberto Rodriguez extended the Panthers’ lead to 2-0 in the 27th minute, scoring off a pass from Travis Simpson.

Redmond’s momentum came to a sudden halt in the 35th minute, though, when the Panthers were issued the game-changing red card.

“It’s a life lesson,” Clark said about the card.

“The kids have to learn to keep their composure, just like in real life.”

Redmond is back on the field Tuesday, hosting Lincoln in both schools’ Class 6A Special District 1 opener. Mountain View also has a big game on Tuesday as the Cougars play at Bend High in the first Civil War soccer game of the season.

Pac-10 Continued from D1 USC, once the undeniable king of the conference, has become essentially the best of the rest. The Trojans are 3-0 and ranked 20th in their first season under Lane Kiffin, but have been alternately shaky on offense and defense.

Oregon State is No. 24 and played close against fourth-ranked TCU, but the Beavers didn’t exactly overwhelm unranked Louisville at home last weekend and have thirdranked Boise State on its funky blue turf next.

UCLA knocked off then-No. 23 Houston last week, was crushed by Stanford the week before. Washington has quarterback Jake Locker, but the Huskies are just 1-2 and he hasn’t exactly looked like the Heisman Trophy favorite everyone expected.

Arizona State beat up on two FCS schools and missed too many scoring opportunities against Wisconsin, while Cal followed two routs with a lopsided loss to Nevada. Washington State appears to still be in the rebuilding process, though it has shown some signs of improvement.

Throw any of those seven teams against each other and any one of them could probably win without it being much of an upset.

Chad Ochocinco (85) predicted that no one would be able to stop the Bengals’ passing game once they added Terrell Owens (81).

T.O., Ochocinco have yet to hit their stride

By Joe Kay The Associated Press

CINCINNATI — Through two games, the Bengals’ pass-catching duo has been anything but dynamic.

Chad Ochocinco and Terrell Owens dubbed themselves Batman and Robin at the start of training camp. They expected to play like superheroes on the field.

Mere mortals so far.

The Bengals (1-1) failed to score a touchdown in their 15-10 win over Baltimore on Sunday, a game that left the receivers frustrated. Cincinnati won the AFC North last season by relying on its defense and a run-oriented offense, a grind-it-out approach that worked again against one of the league’s best defenses.

Doesn’t do much for those receiving stats.

“From a skill perspective, we want to really throw the ball a little bit more,” Owens said. “There were some opportunities out there that we missed. That’s where — as Robin says — the frustration comes from. I can definitely feel for him in that situation.

“From an offense’s standpoint, we played mediocre. We definitely could have played better.”

When the Bengals signed Owens to a one-year, $2 million deal at the start of training camp, Ochocinco called the Bengals receiving corps a dream team. They looked good during their limited chances in the preseason. When the season started, things changed.

Ochocinco had a 12-catch game against New England, but most of them came in the second half when the Bengals were already down 30-3. When it mattered, he and TO were not much of a factor in a 38-24 loss.

The big second half gave Ochocinco a boost in the league rankings. He’s second in the NFL with 203 yards on 16 catches.

Owens is 42nd with 110 yards on 10 catches. They’ve combined for one touchdown.

The passing game ranks eighth in the league — again, mainly because of the second half against a New England defense that had the game in hand.

Certainly not comic book stuff.

“Truthfully, it’s not flowing the way we would like it to flow,” Ochocinco said. “Not near. (TO) continues to remind me when I get frustrated in practice that it’s only week two. It’s really early. As the season goes along, we’re going to get it together.”

Their quarterback also is advising patience.

Carson Palmer had two chances to con-

It starts with Oregon.

The Ducks won last year’s Pac-10 title and made it to the Rose Bowl for the first time since 1995. Despite an offseason filled with turmoil, including the dismissal of quarterback Jeremiah Masoli from the team, Oregon has been one of the country’s most dominating teams, winning its first three games by a combined score of 189-13.

The Ducks have an offense that Arizona State coach Dennis Erickson said he hadn’t seen even on Playstation and they may be even better on defense, where their speed makes the field feel like a tennis court to opposing quarterbacks.

“They may be the best football team in the country,” said Erickson, whose team hosts the fifth-ranked Ducks on Saturday. “When you look at them on both sides of the football and in the kicking game, they’re so balanced it’s hard to decide what their strengths are.”

The Cardinal and Wildcats have been a little bit more of a surprise, two teams with plenty of talent but just enough questions that it was hard to get a handle on how good they’d be before the season started.

Riding the arms of two quarterbacks who are quickly becoming among the best in the country — Andrew Luck and Nick Foles — Stanford and Arizona have climbed the official and public opinion polls.

Picked to finish sixth by the Pac-10’s coaches in the preseason, the Cardinal have been nearly as dominant as Oregon. Stanford

nect with the duo in the end zone against Baltimore. Ochocinco broke free when a defensive back tripped, but Palmer had to hurry his throw because he was about to get hit.

Also, Owens outjumped cornerback Fabian Washington in the end zone for a high throw. Washington appeared to grab Owens’ arm as the ball arrived, resulting in an incompletion.

Palmer didn’t take many chances, avoiding a turnover against a defense that hasn’t allowed a touchdown this season.

Ochocinco had four catches for 44 yards.

Owens had three for 57.

“We’d all love to put up huge numbers, but more than huge numbers we love to win,” Palmer said Wednesday. “Playing against that style of defense, no one is going to go off for 180 yards.

“They want the ball in their hands and I want the ball in their hands, too. I’m going to do what I can without jeopardizing our team or putting our defense in a difficult situation. There’s going to be highs and lows. They’re going to have those bignumber games probably not week-in and week-out, but one is going to have a bignumber game on a consistent basis.”

Part of the problem is that Palmer is still getting to know Owens as a receiver. Owens began learning the playbook at the start of training camp, and the passer-receiver relationship is still in its formative stages.

“The separation he can create (with a defensive back), the speed with which he carries his routes is amazing,” Palmer said. “We’ve been working together for a little while now and getting closer. Pretty soon we’re going to be clicking just like Chad and I have been.”

Owens and Palmer have been doing extra work around practice to get to know each other a little better. They talk frequently about how they can get on the same wavelength.

“It’s not like I am a hard target to throw to,” Owens said. “I think he has been used to a certain style of receiver over a number of years, throwing to Chad and T.J. (Houshmandzadeh). I was just making a joke to him the other day: I am TO, not TJ. It’s one of those things I understand. We both want to be successful. It irks both of us when we misconnect on certain routes and things like that.”

For now, Ochocinco has toned down the preseason bluster.

“Maybe week four, week five,” Ochocinco said. “When we as a team are rolling, it should get scary.”

toyed with Sacramento State to start the season, dismantled UCLA in the Pac-10 opener and made it look awfully easy in beating Wake Forest 68-24 last Saturday.

Luck has quickly squelched any doubts he could replace Heisman Trophy runner-up Toby Gerhart as the team’s star, thrusting himself to the front of a deep quarterback class.

The result is the Cardinal’s first 3-0 start since 2001 and a No. 16 ranking heading into Saturday’s game at Notre Dame.

“We’re coming along nicely,” Luck said.

“But I don’t think anybody is satisfied. This program hasn’t been on a high too long. Guys have been around here when it’s not been on a high, me included. We know that tides can change like that.”

Arizona’s switched with last week’s win over then-ninth-ranked Iowa.

The Wildcats won their first two games easily, but didn’t exactly win anyone over because of the opponents. The hard-fought 34-27 win over the Hawkeyes did the trick, though, shifting some of the national spotlight toward the desert and on Foles’ rising stardom.

Arizona looks to take the next step this weekend against Cal in its conference opener.

“Our goal is to win a championship and we have as good a chance as anybody right now,” Arizona coach Mike Stoops said. “But there’s only been one conference game played. This thing is a long way from being finished.”

It is starting to shape up, though.

FLY-TYING CORNER

The local favorites The top Central Oregon athletes that will compete in Saturday’s XTERRA USA Championship for triathlon:

By Gary Lewis For The Bulletin

Most anglers, when looking at a caddis hatch, tie on a dry fly, but caddis are quick to dry their wings and fly. A safer bet is a pupa sized and colored to match the natural.

Morrish’s Super Pupa is a great representation of the caddis at its most vulnerable stage.

Fish it dead drift beneath a strike indicator or cast and fish it still on a tight line to rising fish.

Tie this pattern with black thread on a No. 8-16 scud hook.

Start with a black nickel bead and 12 wraps of lead. Tie in small copper wire for the rib, then wrap the body with chroma green Scintilla dubbing. Simulate the back and wingcase with olive Flashabou and use brown Hungarian partridge fibers for the legs. Finish with a black hare’s mask head behind the bead.

Conrad Stoltz

Matt Lieto

Dave Cloninger

Stoltz is a three-time world champion in the XTERRA off-road triathlon and is looking to secure his eighth USA Series title on Saturday.

Lieto is making a transition from Ironman triathlon, staged on the road, to off-road triathlon. Lieto won the XTERRA REAL triathlon in Granite Bay, Calif., this spring.

Cloninger, a land surveyor, has won his age group (4044) in five XTERRA triathlons this year. He is looking for his second age-group national title on Saturday.

Anglers for Atlantic salmon doing well on Hosmer Lake Here is the weekly fishing report for selected areas in and around Central Oregon, provided by fisheries biologists for the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife:

Rogers has finished right behind Dave Cloninger in the 40-44 age group in all five XTERRA triathlons in which they have competed this year.

Oppenheimer is a veteran of conventional triathlon. She placed in the top five in her age group at the International Triathlon Union World Championships last year.

Rogers, Oppenheimer’s husband, trains with his wife in and around Bend and is hoping for a high placing in his age group on Saturday.

CRANE PRAIRIE RESERVOIR: Anglers are still catching large fish from two to seven pounds.

FALL RIVER: Trout fishing has been good, with several different hatches of insects throughout the day.

CRESCENT LAKE: The water temperature is around 60 and the fish are spread throughout the lake. The water level is dropping a bit and some anglers are picking up 8- to 10-pound browns.

The kokanee have not started to change to spawning colors yet.

HOSMER LAKE: Fishing for Atlantic salmon has been good, with many anglers using bright streamers. Fishing on Hosmer is restricted to fly fishing with barbless hooks.

Continued from D1 “I’d like to win five (world titles) before I retire,” says Stoltz, 36, a two-time Olympian in conventional triathlon (2000 and 2004). “It’s getting harder and harder every year because there’s more road athletes coming.”

One of those road triathletes is Bend’s Matt Lieto, who is trying to improve his mountain biking skills as he crosses over to off-road triathlon.

Lieto is a veteran of Ironman (2.4-mile swim, 112-mile road bike ride, and 26.2-mile road run) and Half-Ironman triathlons. He won the XTERRA REAL triathlon this spring in Granite Bay, Calif., where Bend’s Dave Cloninger finished second. Lieto says Stoltz has encouraged him for years to try off-road triathlons. “(XTERRA) is a little less taxing than Ironman, but still advantageous for a good cyclist,” Lieto says. “Once I get my bikehandling skills up to par, I hope to do more XTERRA.” XTERRA triathlons typically include a 1½-kilometer open-water swim, and a 30K mountain bike ride and 10K trail run that both include a mix of singletrack trail, doubletrack and pavement.

Lieto — who also looks to race in the XTERRA World Championship — says he plans to drive to Utah with Cloninger and Bruce Rogers, two other Bend triathletes who are scheduled to compete in Saturday’s USA Championship.

Cloninger, 41, is seeking a national title in his age group (40-44); he won the 35-39 agegroup title in 2005. He calls this

ten train near Mount Bachelor, which is 6,300 feet at its base.

Oppenheimer, 42, plans to compete in the XTERRA USA Championship along with her husband, Sean Rogers.

Much like Lieto, Oppenheimer is making the transition from conventional triathlon to offroad triathlon. She has certainly proven herself on the road, having placed fifth in her age group last September in Australia at the International Triathlon Union World Championships.

In both 2008 and 2009, she won Central Oregon’s popular Deschutes Dash triathlon. Just last month, Oppenheimer won the women’s overall title at the XTERRA Portland triathlon.

“Road biking is something I love, but I wanted to look for a new challenge, something I had little experience with,” Oppenheimer says. “I’ve been trying to do more mountain biking and cyclocross, just to push my edge.

Mountain biking does not come naturally to me, but it’s so much fun.”

Oppenheimer, who is gunning for a top-three finish in her age group, says she likes offroad events because they tend to attract more laid-back competitors, unlike the win-at-all-costs Ironman ethos.

“The people who do them (offroad triathlons) are just excited to be out there racing,” she says.

“It’s not as glamorous as riding a $10,000 time-trial bike through Hawaii (in the Ironman), but it’s a really cool group of people.”

Within that group, Central Oregon athletes will be looking to stand out this weekend at the USA Championship.

KINGSLEY RESERVOIR: Kingsley has been stocked with lots of trout and should offer good fishing for trout.

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

LAVA and LITTLE LAVA LAKE: Both these lakes have been fishing well for trout.

OCHOCO CREEK UPSTREAM TO OCHOCO DAM: A strong hatch has been occurring around 10 a.m. Anglers should be aware that beginning in 2010 new fishing regulations went into effect that permanently restrict fishing to artificial flies and lures only; two trout per day and 8-inch minimum length.

PAULINA LAKE: Trout fishing has been good and the lake continues to produce some nice kokanee.

TAYLOR LAKE: Taylor Lake should offer anglers a good opportunity to catch bass and bluegill. It’s also a great place to catch carp on the fly rod.

WICKIUP RESERVOIR: Water temperatures are starting to drop into the lower 60s and fishing is picking up for big browns and kokanee in the Deschutes arm. The kokanee are heading up to spawn and the browns and ’bows are going up after the eggs. The water is very low and the only places to launch a boat is off the sandy beaches. Fourwheel drive is a must to pull your boat back out.

Rain should improve hunting conditions Here is the weekly hunting report for selected areas in and around Central Oregon, provided by wildlife biologists for the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife: CENTRAL ZONE

a “comeback year” after taking a couple of years off from training. Cloninger has finished second overall at three XTERRA races this year, and in late August he won the XTERRA Lake Tahoe in Nevada.

A former collegiate swimmer at Lewis & Clark in Portland, Cloninger credits much of his success to his training partner, Rogers.

“He’s a great sparring partner, and we elevate each other’s fitness,” Cloninger says. “He’s just become very strong in everything. I just have an advantage on the swim.”

Cloninger — sometimes referred to as the “elder statesman” in XTERRA circles — says his goals for Saturday are to finish in the top five overall and to win his age group. He has claimed age-group titles in all five triathlons in which he has competed this year, and Rogers, 43, has finished second in the 40-44 age group in each of those same races.

“I’ve been carrying the 1-2 punch with Dave in our age group … that would be nice to continue that,” Rogers says. “If there was somebody I’d like to take second to, I’d rather it be Dave than anybody else, because I can say I trained with that guy.”

“I’m sure it’s because we train together and push each other,” Cloninger says of the success that he and Rogers have achieved. “We’re highly competitive, but we respect each other.

It’s a supportive role for each of us.”

The bike and run courses for Saturday’s USA Championship are mountainous, topping out at an elevation of 7,500 feet.

That, Rogers believes, favors the Bend triathletes, who of-

METOLIUS RIVER: Trout fishing has been good. Lots of insect hatches should offer lots of opportunities for good dry-fly fishing.

EAST LAKE: Trout fishing on East Lake has been very good. Because of the late spring, fly anglers are still doing well with mayfly patterns. The lake is still producing nice kokanee.

OPEN: Archery buck/elk, early elk, cougar, bear, mourning dove, forest and blue grouse.

PRINEVILLE/OCHOCO WILDLIFE DISTRICT GENERAL: Weather conditions have been variable, with wide temperature extremes, and cold temperatures at higher elevations. Recent heavy precipitation will improve hunting conditions and should lessen fire danger. The Ochoco National Forest and Prineville BLM should be contacted regarding the latest information on motorized access, camping, and fire concerns. (BLM 541-416-6700, Ochoco Nat. For. 541-416-6500).

ARCHERY BUCK and ELK: Recent cool temperatures and rain should improve hunting for archers. Consult with the Prineville BLM and/or Ochoco National Forest offices for the latest fire information. Hunters are reminded that the Maury is now a controlled entry unit and they must have the controlled entry deer tag in order to hunt elk in the unit.

Early ANTLERLESS ELK: Hunts are ongoing in the Maury, Ochoco and Grizzly units. These hunts include private agricultural and range lands where permission from the landowner is needed. Typically elk move into these hunt areas in greater numbers during the late summer to take advantage of the irrigated pastures and hay fields.

COUGAR: Are present at all elevations in the Maury, Ochoco and Grizzly units.

Like coyotes, cougar will be attracted to deer and antelope, but also elk. The Maury and Ochoco units are recommended because of their greater amounts of public lands and better accessibility. Remember cougars must be checked in at an ODFW office within 10 days after harvest. Please consult the synopsis for all required parts and be sure to call to make an appointment.

BEAR: The best opportunities will be on forest lands at higher elevations on the Ochoco National Forest. The better locations will be on the more densely forested north slopes of the Lookout Mountain and Paulina Ranger Districts in the Ochoco Unit. Remember check in of harvested bears is mandatory. Please check the synopsis for more information and call ahead of time to make an appointment MOURNING DOVE: Numbers have likely dwindled with recent cooler tempera-

HUNTING REPORT tures and heavy rains. What opportunities remain will likely be around private agricultural lands where the birds feed.

However, the birds also use roosting, and watering areas on the Crooked River National Grasslands and BLM lands.

FOREST GROUSE: Opportunities are limited to higher elevation forest lands on

the Ochoco National Forest. Hunters should check the more heavily forested portions of the Lookout Mountain and Paulina Ranger districts for these elusive birds.

Spencer Tabor, left, of Central Oregon Sporting Clays and Hunting Preserve, with Paxton and Alexa Eicher on a recent hunt at the new hunting preserve between Bend and Redmond. made squishy sounds. A proper amount of misery.

When we bounced a small flock of doves, Paxton made a long shot and knocked one down. Trick and Soul, Spence’s English Cocker, shared the glory of the retrieve.

Somewhere ahead, I heard “chukka-chuka-chuk.” Chukar.

We forged through the stalks.

Mikayla, Alexa and I took the right flank toward an abandoned rock house built by the hardy souls that homesteaded this land.

Paxton, Spence and Diana took the left flank. A rooster pheasant flushed ahead of them and Paxton, with my CZ Ringneck, put it down.

We searched for the bird for 10 minutes and then called in backup: Gunner, a German shorthair pointer with a fresh nose. Five minutes later, he ran down the rooster and then flushed a halfdozen doves at the spot we’d stood five minutes before. Alexa missed a dove going away.

With the sun high in the sky and five out of six of us soaked

to the skin, we were about to call it quits. Then we flushed another group of doves and quail. Alexa was out of position and played it safe by keeping the muzzle of her Mossberg skyward.

Finished, we squished our way back to the truck. Somewhere behind us, we heard the siren call of the pheasant again. Spence and I looked at each other, the kids looked at us. One more time through, we decided.

At the edge of a field, we jumped the bird. Alexa hit it with the first shot. When it swung back across the field, right to left, she chambered another round and fired again. The dogs found her prize beneath a juniper.

And a young hunter carried her first bird triumphant from the field.

HAVE AN INTEREST IN CENTRAL OREGON? 2010

Continued from D1 My 13-year-old daughter Mikayla, Paxton, Alexa and their mother Diana Eicher showed up in denim and tennis shoes, perfect conductors for moisture.

Spencer Tabor, owner of Central Oregon Sporting Clays and Hunting Preserve, wore cotton cargo pants. I, on the other hand, had been tasked with testing Columbia’s new pant in their Performance Hunting Gear line, faced with Omni-Shield, a water and stain barrier.

After a warm-up on the 5stand course, we took to the soggy, shoulder-high cover.

With planted pheasants, birds held over from last year’s hunts, and dove season in progress, we hoped Alexa would get a chance to see a bird over the barrel of her new shotgun.

T.C., an English pointer, and Trick, a German wirehair, worked close, back and forth where we entered the field, their tails visible as they entered the rough stuff. Once, T.C. held a point, but then he broke it when we got close.

Spence shook his head. “The crops may be too wet for the dogs to get a good scent,” he said.

Indeed. We worked in and out of the junipers, through fields head high with crops. In one corner, the crested wheat had been mown down by a herd of elk, their prints almost washed away by the recent rain. Soon, the kids’ pants were soaked almost to the waist by the rainwater brushed off the stalks.

I noted that, although my boots had soaked through, the Columbia PHG pants were still dry. I kept my observations quiet.

Still we hunted, our eyes on the margins for tracks of birds that might have left the cover for drier environs. T.C. and Trick vacuumed seeds and tried to sort the scents of quail, chukar, pheasant and doves out of the field. Time and again, we hurried to catch up when the dogs got “birdy” or held point. Conditions were tough with the water on the stalks.

A bedraggled cottontail flushed ahead of the dogs, but they paid it no heed. The kids watched it go. It was legal game, but it is considered bad form to shoot a rabbit in front of bird dogs.

Mikayla observed that every time she stepped, her shoes

ometimes a rainy day is just a rainy day, squelching plans and dampening spirits all around.

Sometimes, though, a rainy day is an opportunity to see something ordinary in an entirely new way.

Lava Butte and its adjacent, nine-square-mile lava flow becomes a study in textures when viewed through the damp drizzle of a Saturday in September.

Normally home to impressive vistas of the Cascade peaks and a 360-degree view of Central Oregon, Lava Butte withdraws in the rain, its usually expansive views constrained by drifting clouds. Socked in by a low, gray sky, the lava flow that emerged from its flank 7,000 years ago seems never more alien and otherworldly than when covered by mists, its borders masked.

My eye pulled inward in reaction to these circumstances, its focus shifted from the mountain views I expected to the immediacy of the rock and the stunted trees and shrubs that dot the lava flow. Instead of a sweeping arch of black lava girding Lava Butte, I saw the delicate surfaces of each individual rock, and noted the beauty of the contrasting textures.

Velvety green moss blanketed one chunk of rock. Lime lichen created a lacy pattern on another. The feathery yellow flowers of gray rabbitbrush oscillated in the faint wind next to the smooth, gleaming trunk of a juniper, long weathered and polished by the vicissitudes of the weather.

It’s remarkable what you can see when not distracted by postcard visions and bluebird skies.

Special-needs kids build bridges of understanding

Hall is newly invigorated, facing new adversaries

By Mike Hale

With his cancer in remission, Michael C. Hall is back as the sympathetic serial killer on the Showtime series “Dexter,” which is entering its fifth season this Sunday.

New York Times News Service

Dear Abby: As the mother of a child with special needs, my heart goes out to “Boiling Mad in New Jersey” (July 23). My daughter, “Kate,” is also stared at in public. I, too, used to bristle at the unwanted attention, until I began to open up and talk with people. I found most of them to be compassionate and merely curious. Sometimes seeing Kate triggered their memory of a loved one who was affected by a similar challenge.

As often as I can, I take the time to do mini “public service announcements” and chat with folks who linger, look or approach. It’s a great way to build a bridge between disabled individuals, who have much to teach, and the non- disabled, who have much to learn. The kids are my favorites. They’ll openly ask what everyone wants to know and say what others are afraid to risk saying.

Kate is 16 now, beautiful inside and out. She’s pure, loves unconditionally and always forgives. She’s our teacher. Please tell “Boiling Mad” that time heals some of the rawness of a fresh diagnosis, and if she’ll try to find the best in others, she’ll usually be right.

— Happier Now in Washington State Dear Happier: Thank you for your insightful letter. You are among many readers who shared similar views on transforming a “staring session” into a positive opportunity. Read on: Dear Abby: I worked with special-needs children for a number of years. I actually believe that it is good when people stare. It gives us a chance to help the child learn social skills.

Would “Boiling Mad” prefer everyone pretend her son doesn’t exist? How horrible to isolate him like that. It’ll make him miserable. The people looking aren’t mean, they’re just human. Children like to be

DEAR ABBY looked at; it makes them feel important.

Her precious little boy doesn’t have only disabilities. He has abilities, too, and developing them should be the focus of every activity she does with him.

She’ll be amazed at and proud of his growth.

— Kathy in Knoxville Dear Abby: My child has moderate autism spectrum disorder.

Although he looks like everyone else, his extreme behavior brings stares and comments (mostly about my parenting). I now regard it as an opportunity to educate them about autism. I hand them a card explaining it that contains a link to the Autism Society of America.

This tactic, rather than ignoring people, is the way to go. If more people educated others, the stares and rude comments would become smiles and support.

— Jon In Beavercreek, Ohio Dear Abby: I’m one of those folks who “stare” at others. By no means is there ever a bad intent. I’m a people-watcher. I love watching people communicate in different ways, like signing. Whether someone is in a wheelchair or has a visible disability, I value each and every person.

Maybe “Boiling Mad” doesn’t understand that many of us are willing to reach out, lend a hand or just be friendly. I wish to embrace, not ignore, and I hope my behavior isn’t perceived to be offensive.

LOS ANGELES — Michael C. Hall plays a character who has, by his own count, murdered more than 60 people.

He has also done battle, in a kind of Ultimate Serial Killing Championship, with a succession of bloodthirsty adversaries, one of whom turned out to be his brother.

So when Hall announced in January that he was undergoing chemotherapy for Hodgkin’s lymphoma — shortly before accepting trophies in January at the Golden Globes and the Screen Actors Guild award ceremonies wearing a knit cap on his bald head — it was hard not to feel a shiver at the coincidence: the star of the Showtime series “Dexter,” the most death-obsessed show on television, contracting a potentially fatal disease at 38.

For Hall, though, any resonance between television and real life was trivial. There was another parallel that struck much closer to home: his father’s death from prostate cancer at 39.

“I think I’ve been preoccupied since I was 11, and my father died, with the idea of the age 39: Would I live that long? What would that be like?” Hall said last month.

“To discover that I had the Hodgkin’s was alarming, but at the same time I felt kind of bemused, like: Wow. Huh. How interesting.”

Hall received his diagnosis while Season 4 of “Dexter” was still being shot, and his calm, studied approach included keeping his condition a secret on the set until production had wrapped. He began treatment the next day, and the cancer is now in remission.

(He turned 39 in February.)

Production on Season 5 was in full swing when we spoke; his illness had caused no changes in the “Dexter”

Kevin Scanlon New York Times News Service

schedule, and he had even managed to shoot a movie, “East Fifth Bliss,” during the show’s hiatus.

If anything, he said, he felt an extra energy after the effects of the chemotherapy wore off. That could come in handy in the new season, which begins next Sunday night.

Dexter Morgan, police forensics expert by day and avenging-angel serial killer by night, will be going through some big changes.

As dedicated viewers know (spoiler alert here if you’re still catching up), Season 4 ended with the shocking murder of Dexter’s wife, Rita (Julie Benz), by a fellow serial killer. As Season 5 begins, his usual burdens of secrecy, guilt and uncontrollable homicidal urges are supplemented by single fatherhood and being a suspect in his wife’s death.

“Everything we’d seen him build up is now gone. It was sad to see Julie Benz go and leave the ‘Dexter’ family, but from an acting standpoint, creatively, it’s really been invigorating to have him so completely decimated.”

In addition to Hall’s tightropewalking portrayal of a sympathetic killer, one that has earned him three consecutive Emmy

‘Dexter,’ Season 5 When: 9 p.m. Sunday Where: Showtime

nominations, “Dexter” has been marked by a series of flashy, season-long guest-killer performances by actors like Jimmy Smits and, last season, John Lithgow, roles collectively known on the set as the “big bad.”

Actress Julia Stiles will join the cast this season, and while not much has been revealed about her character.

“There will certainly be adversaries, but it’s more plural and as far as Julia’s role, it’s not an adversarial relationship,” Hall said. “You know, Dexter’s yet to get involved in any significant way with someone he hasn’t ended up killing, so we’ll see if he can manage.”

The one successful, essential

relationship Dexter has is with his bull-headed and passionate foster sister, Debra. In this case the parallel between television and real life can’t be denied: Debra is played by Jennifer Carpenter, who married Hall after they finished shooting Season 3.

Carpenter, who appears as high-strung and vulnerable in person as Hall seems measured and guarded, recalled during a break in filming at the “Dexter” soundstage in Hollywood that she cried for a couple of days after the cancer diagnosis arrived, one year into their marriage.

“The triumph of a man, to have gone through something like that and not even give the crew any suspicions that he was in any sort of need, it’s impressive,” she said. “And I’m not sure he ever would have told anyone about it had he not been expected at those award ceremonies.”

With five seasons as the bottled-up funeral director David Fisher on the HBO series “Six Feet Under” and another five as the secret killer Dexter, Hall is aware that he has built a career, playing men with an almost comical degree of repression.

“Yes, I think simulating that kind of repression day in day out for a decade probably has its effect,” he said. “At the same time the fact that I’ve been called upon to play these characters is probably not a complete coincidence, so I have my own repressed people in my life that I’ve drawn on, and had my own tendency toward repression.

“Maybe it has to do with not knowing quite what to do with the storm of feelings that accompanied my father’s death.

Maybe it’s a learned behavior.”

He smiled. “Now I’m taking it to the bank.”

Fox crowns J-Lo, Tyler as ‘Idol’ judges INGLEWOOD, Calif. — Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler will join Randy Jackson as “American Idol” judges next season, after months of turnover and speculation about the future of TV’s toprated show.

Fox finally assembled the new pieces of the “Idol” panel that will be returned to its original threemember format for Season 10.

Actress-singer-dancer Lopez and Aerosmith frontman Tyler will have the job of trying to match the offbeat chemistry of former judges Simon Cowell and Paula Abdul.

Cowell announced last January that he planned to leave to launch a new talent show for Fox in 2011, with newcomers Ellen DeGeneres and Kara DioGuardi exiting this summer. Abdul left in 2009 over a contract dispute.

Lopez and Tyler could help “American Idol” reinvent itself for the new season, when it will try to stem a ratings slide and bring in younger viewers. The show’s audience has been gradually aging, and advertisers prefer to pitch to young adults.

MacDonald developing satirical sports show Norm MacDonald, the former “Saturday Night Live” comedian who made a name for himself as an anchor of that show’s “Weekend Update” segment, is working on a new project for Comedy Central.

Norm The show MacDonald would be a satirical look at the sports world. On board with MacDonald is Daniel Kellison, a veteran TV producer whose credits include ABC’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live” and “The Man Show,” according to person familiar with the project. Mike Gibbons, a producer who has worked with both Craig Kilborn and Craig Ferguson at CBS, is involved in the development of the show.

The project is still in early stages and has a long way to go before getting a green light from Comedy Central. It may face competition from another sports news spoof show that the Viacom-owned cable network is developing with The Onion, the satirical newspaper.

Hasselhoff first to be cut from ‘Dancing’ He may be big in Germany, but voters for “Dancing with the Stars” didn’t like David Hasselhoff, making him the first eliminated from David the show’s big Hasselhoff 11th season on Tuesday.

Hasselhoff, 58, and his partner Kym Johnson were tied for last place among the judges, too, tying with Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino and Margaret Cho for last place Monday among judges, with just 15 points out of pos-

sible 30. Their cha-cha to Tom Jones’ “Sex Bomb” bombed.

“It’s been a great ride. I feel bad for Kym because she worked so hard in getting me going,” Haselhoff said after the elimination.

Being in the bottom, Hasselhoff said earlier in Tuesday’s show, was “almost like ‘America’s Got Talent’ payback.” After a career that included starring roles in “Knight Rider” and “Baywatch,” Hasselhoff had been judge on “America’s Got Talent” until this summer. He still is apparently a big star in Germany, and Johnson was seen in a tape flying to meet her short-lived partner backstage at a concert there.

O’Reilly, Maher both have O’Donnell footage NEW YORK — Christine O’Donnell’s eagerness to go on television is coming back to haunt her campaign for U.S. Senate.

HBO’s Bill Maher last week played a tape from 1999 in which the conservative Christian activist said that she dabbled in witchcraft while in high school.

On Monday, Fox News Channel’s Bill O’Reilly said that he had tapes of “crazy stuff” that O’Donnell said during past appearances on his program.

O’Donnell is the Republican candidate for Senate in Delaware. Both O’Reilly and Maher have similar goals: booking her on their shows now she’s the political star of the moment.

‘Spartacus’ star exits due to cancer return NEW YORK — Starz network says “Spartacus: Blood and Sand” star Andy Whitfield is leaving the show to battle a recurrence of cancer.

Production of the “Spartacus” series’ second season was postponed this spring when Whitfield was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The cable television network said Whitfield was responding well to treatment, but the cancer has returned.

It will air in January.

Judge tosses ‘Disturbia’ lawsuit NEW YORK — “Disturbia,” the 2007 film made by Steven Spielberg’s production company, didn’t infringe the copyright of Alfred Hitchcock’s “Rear Window” or the short story the older movie was based on, a New York judge has ruled.

“Disturbia” isn’t “substantially similar” to the murder mystery “Rear Window,” U.S. District Judge Laura Taylor Swain said in a partial summary judgment ruling filed Tuesday in federal court.

The Sheldon Abend Revocable Trust, the copyright holder for the story on which “Rear Window” is based, sued Spielberg, Dreamworks and Viacom’s Paramount studio, alleging similarities between the two works.

In “Rear Window,” James Stewart plays an injured photographer convalescing at home who spies on neighbors in a New York apartment building and comes to suspect one of them murdered a woman. In “Disturbia,” a teenager under house arrest spies on his neighbors and suspects one is responsible for the disappearance of women.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Thursday, Sept. 23, 2010: You make changes that point to a new path this year. Your ability to juggle different concerns emerges once more as a salient trait.

Relationships of all sorts might be slightly more difficult as you juggle what you think you should do and what you want to do. Boundary issues will appear. Whether you are single or attached, you will be dealing with how much to give. Avoid committing this year if you are single. If you are attached, you will move in a new direction if you can relax with your significant other’s swift changes.

ARIES can be challenging.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH Invigorated, the Ram will be unstoppable. Issues that might be Full Moon-driven might be easily resolved with a different perspective and a willingness to try another way. A partner is difficult. You cannot change what is going on. Tonight: Think “fun.” Make weekend plans.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH Know when to back off.

What you think and feel also might be exaggerated in some form.

This could be the result of the issues that surround you. Knowing that, the less done and the less said, the better the end results will be. Tonight: Vanish early.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH Zero in on what you

want. A child or new friend could weigh you down in a substantial manner. Use diplomacy and walk away from what might be a distinct issue. Your smile goes far. Tonight: Where you are, the action is.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH Step up to the plate. Though there could be an issue involving a child or loved one, you see a matter in a different light. How you deal with someone and the choices you make could be dynamic and long term. Let go of worry.

Tonight: A must appearance.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHH You know how to look at the big picture. What is stopping you? You know what works and are an unusually creative thinker. Negativity can stop you from taking a necessary leap of faith. Trust yourself.

Tonight: Where there is music.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Inadvertently, one issue or bond puts pressure on another. You might want to stop worrying so much and just do what feels right. Walk away from controlling behavior by not playing. Tonight: Listen to a dear older friend’s suggestion.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH You could take what is going on personally or you could just observe. Others seem strong and determined to have a situation unfold in the style they believe is best. Know when to say little -- like now. Tonight: You revise your thinking about a key relationship.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Understanding evolves to

a new level if you observe more and judge less. When asked an opinion, the smart Scorp will pull back and diplomatically smile and say little. If you are feeling a bit awkward with a co-worker, distance yourself. Tonight: Squeeze in some exercise.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHHH You can move through a situation if you tap into your creativity and humor. While lightening up the problem, you’ll find the solution with ease with the support of others. Do avoid a meeting. Tonight: Let the fun begin.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH You might wonder what you need to do in order to balance what for many could be a touchy situation. A boss or someone you look up to could be difficult at best.

Know what you are doing, and be careful which circles you move in.

Tonight: Put your feet up at home.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH You have a winning way, and you know it. Let your ability to excel in situations with many different issues or changing scenarios step right in. You might want to update your self-image or opinion about someone close.

Tonight: Only where the action is.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HH Be sensible when it comes to spending and enjoying yourself.

There needs to be a strong line of demarcation, whether you want it or not. Revise your long-term goals or a friendship that just might not be cutting it for you. Tonight: Time to treat. © 2010 by King Features Syndicate

Outing Continued from E1 Lava Butte is a 500-foot cinder cone rising in the northwest portion of the 500-square-mile shield volcano known as Newberry Volcano. Newberry — one of the largest shield volcanoes in the U.S. — includes hundreds of cinder cones and volcanic vents, in addition to several lakes and many large and small lava flows (the youngest of these, the Big Obsidian Flow, poured out of the Earth as recently as 1,300 years ago). But the flow at Lava Butte is certainly one of the most impressive. It creates a jagged moonscape of black rock, occasionally interrupted by trees or bushes that have managed a precarious grip on life.

The origins of the Lava Butte flow are obvious even to the nongeologically minded. High walls of a lava “gutter” line the channel through which lava poured through a vent on the butte’s south side (this after spewing volcanic foam — cinders — into the air, where they fell back to create the butte itself). The lava flow traveled five miles north and three miles west, damming the Deschutes River and changing its channel.

My family and I walked the three-quarter-mile Trail of the Molten Land through the flow.

A narrow strip of asphalt that makes for easy walking, though may be too steep for wheelchairs, the trail includes many interpretive signs explaining how the flow took place and why. We read each one, but spent more time studying the amazing variety of rocks — smooth and jagged, black and moss-covered, solid and riddled with air-bubble holes. Every turn in the loop trail brought into focus a new and interesting aspect of the lava flow. A short side trail leads to a viewpoint named for the late local writer (a former Bulletin reporter) and amateur geologist Phil Brogan. The view is probably magnificent on sunny days, but on this day is was a window onto an alien landscape covered with creeping mists and undulating rock.

After this short walk, we drove to the top of Lava Butte, where a fire lookout overlooks the summit crater and commands an impressive view of the surrounding land. A pleasant quarter-mile trail circumnavigates the crater.

ow will the health reform law passed last spring affect your life? Don’t know?

Employer-sponsored insurance Charles Houser

You’re not alone. Today represents the six-month an-

niversary of the signing of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, and a day when many of its provisions go into effect.

Still, many people are confused about exactly what the law does. In a recent poll by the company Harris Interactive, the majority of Americans could not identify key provisions of the law.

To help explain how the new law might affect each of us, The Bulletin found five Central Oregonians who represent common ways to get health coverage: from an employer; as a small business owner; as an individual; from Medicare; from a Medicare Advantage plan.

We also found a local resident who is in the same situation as about one in five Central Oregonians: She has no health coverage.

We asked these people to tell us a little about themselves, and then asked experts to tell us how their coverage may change in the coming years because of the new law.

Age: 40 Occupation: production operator, Structus Building Technologies Monthly insurance premium: $46 For the next several years, there are not likely to be dramatic changes for people who get their insurance from a large employer, said Paul Fronstin, director of the health research program at the Employee Benefit Research Institute.

In keeping with the oft-heard promise that Charles those satisfied Houser with their current plans will be allowed to keep them, current employer plans are grandfathered and therefore exempt from most of the provisions of the law. There are some changes that they will be required to make beginning today, such as eliminating lifetime limits on coverage and keeping dependents on the plan until they are 26 years old.

(These changes will not go into effect for many people until the next plan renewal.)

Curiel, who’s in his 60s, grew up in Mexico when most families did not visit the doctor if they got sick. Instead, they relied on herbs, minerals and botanicals — and the advice of elders on how to use them.

Young athletes need fuel for a better performance

By Barbara Quinn The Monterey County Herald

Before he headed off to school, Ben stared into his lunch bag and asked, “Why did Mom pack all this food?”

“She’s Italian,” his dad replied.

I’d say she’s a smart Italian.

Ben’s sport schedule is grueling: An hour of weight training 4 days a week; two-hour workouts with his water polo team 5 or 6 days each week; plus games and tournaments. Oh ... and he also carries a full load of high school studies.

What keeps a young athlete growing and going at peak performance? I asked registered dietitian and sports nutritionist Stephanie Bouquet (she’s Italian, too). Bouquet provides personalized nutrition consultations and group programs for athletes of all ages. Her basic formula: Provide key nutrients. Timing is everything.

Carbohydrates: “Young athletes need a carbohydrate-rich diet every day to fuel muscles and feed the brain ... not just the day before or the day of a game,” Bouquet stresses. She explains that carbohydrates (sugars and starches in food) are stored in the body as glycogen — the readily available energy source for the muscles. If this energy depot is empty or is not replenished after a workout, the muscles become “chronically glycogen depleted” which leads to fatigue and inability to perform. Consume carbohydrates every 3 to 4 hours throughout the day to keep the tank refilled, she advises.

Protein: It not only builds muscle mass; protein repairs muscles after exercise, says Bouquet.

“Some athletes are led to believe

Thinkstock

“Young athletes need a carbohydrate-rich diet every day to fuel muscles and feed the brain ... not just the day before or the day of a game.”

— Stephanie Bouquet, registered dietitian and sports nutritionist that eating extra protein builds more or bigger muscles,” says Bouquet. “In reality, protein consumed over and above what the body needs for muscle growth or repair is either burned as a ‘less efficient’ fuel or stored as extra fat. And too much protein can get in the way of consuming enough carbohydrates (the primary energy fuel for the body).”

Fluid: Fluid regulates body temperature and helps cool the

body when muscles heat up during exercise, Bouquet explains.

“When athletes don’t drink enough before, during and after exercise to compensate for the body’s hard work, dehydration occurs and the athlete feels tired and sluggish.”

Every “body” is different in how it handles foods or fluids, Bouquet stresses. That’s why it is so important to “practice” nutrition along with training. Here

are her suggestions: Pre-Practice: Two hours before practice starts, eat a high carb snack with a moderate amount of protein and fat, Bouquet recommends. Examples: nuts and dried fruit with low fat milk; peanut butter or lunch meat sandwich; grapes or banana with a sports drink such as Gatorade or PowerAde; yogurt and dry cereal; pretzels with hummus.

As practice time gets closer, liquid calories—-such as milk, juice or sports drinks—-may be more desirable than solid food, says Bouquet, since any nondigested food will literally “sit” in the stomach during exercise and cause discomfort. “Grazing” on small amounts of food throughout the day (or between classes) may also work better than trying to squeeze in a big snack right before practice. (Hence, mother’s big lunch bag, Ben.) And don’t forget to drink about 2 cups (16 ounces) of fluids within the two hours before practice.

During Practice: Muscles and the brain need continued fuel and fluid during periods of physical activity longer than 90 minutes, Bouquet says. Sips of liquid calories (sports drinks or drinkable yogurts) are convenient sources for water sports.

Post-Practice: The first 30 to 45 minutes after exercise is the best opportunity to refuel glycogen back into muscle stores, Bouquet stresses. “Muscles will soak up carbohydrates like a sponge during this time frame.”

And a little protein will aid in muscle repair. Ideas: chocolate milk, instant breakfast drink, fruit and yogurt smoothie, bagel and cream cheese, Fig Newtons, high carbohydrate energy bar.

G O OD FOR YOU Tis the season for pumpkins — and they’re full of vitamin A Pumpkins get a lot of attention this time of year, but not always for their nutritional content. Perhaps they should. One cup of cooked, mashed pumpkin has more than 200 percent of your recommended daily allowance of vitamin A, which plays an important role in eyesight and may interrupt the beginning of some types of cancers. It also contains healthy doses of vitamin C and potassium.

Wa tch out: There are many different varieties of pumpkins, and those bred to be carved at

Halloween are often too stringy or bland to be eaten. Instead, choose smaller pumpkins — about three to five pounds — that are bred to be eaten.

How to eat: To make mashed pumpkin, or to soften the pumpkin to use it in a recipe, you can steam, bake or boil the pumpkin.

Most recipes suggest slicing the pumpkin and scooping the seeds out prior to cooking.

Study: B vitamins can reduce brain shrinkage, memory loss

By Thomas H. Maugh II Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — High doses of B vitamins can reduce shrinkage of the brain that is frequently a precursor of Alzheimer’s disease, British researchers reported recently. In the best circumstances, the supplements reduced shrinkage by as much as 50 percent, and researchers hope that this may mean that the vitamins can delay the onset of Alzheimer’s.

A longer trial is now being planned to determine if that is the case. The results are all the more remarkable because of the widely publicized failures of many experimental Alzheimer’s treatments.

Dr. A. David Smith of the University of Oxford and his colleagues studied 168 volunteers with mild cognitive impairment, which is characterized by memory loss, language problems and other mental difficulties beyond those normally associated with aging. It generally does not sig-

nificantly interfere with daily activities. An estimated 16 percent of people over the age of 70 have mild cognitive impairment, and about half of those proceed to Alzheimer’s disease.

The rationale for the study was simple: High levels of the amino acid homocysteine in the blood are thought to be linked to the development of Alzheimer’s.

B vitamins are known to reduce homocysteine levels.

Smith’s group gave half the patients daily doses of a Swedish vitamin called Triobe Plus and half of them a placebo. The product, which is dispensed only by prescription, contains 0.8 milligrams folic acid, 0.5 mg cyanocobalamin and 20 mg pyridoxine hydrochloride. That is about 300 times the recommended daily intake of vitamin B12, four times the recommended dose of folate and 15 times the recommended dose of vitamin B6. “This is a drug, not a vitamin intervention,” said nutritionist Helga Refsum of the Uni-

versity of Oslo, a co-author.

The team also used magnetic resonance imaging to measure brain volume. Normally, the human brain shrinks by about half a percent per year. Smith and his colleagues reported in the online journal PLoS One that the brains of the patients receiving the placebo shrank by an average of about 1.08 percent per year, while the brains of those receiving the supplement shrank by an average of only 0.76 percent, a decrease of 30 percent. But in patients who had the highest levels of homocysteine in their blood at the beginning of the two-year study, the shrinkage was reduced by 53 percent. Although the study was not designed to monitor mental capacity, the patients receiving the supplements scored better on mental tests, the researchers said.

“This is a very dramatic and striking result. It’s much more than we could have predicted,” Smith said in a statement.

Jennifer Blechman is a board certified family physician who attended Albany Medical College prior to completing her residency at Swedish Hospital in Seattle. She has practiced in Bend since 2002.

Dr. Blechman finds that many factors, including genetics, lifestyle choices, and emotions contribute to one’s health, and as a family doctor, enjoys being in a unique position to explore them. Family medicine enables her to develop relationships that help to understand how these entangled factors contribute to her patient’s overall health. She is particularly interested in women’s health issues.

Dr. Blechman has recently relocated her practice to our Bend Eastside Clinic.

Dr. Blechman enjoys travelling, nordic skiing, tennis, spending time on the coast, and most of all trying to keep up with her husband and two active young boys.

High Lakes Health Care is a preferred provider for most major insurance plans.

New patients are now being accepted at all locations. We are now open to new Medicare patients.

F4 Thursday, September 23, 2010 • THE BULLETIN

M Reform Continued from F1 Whether these changes increase the plan’s cost depends largely on whether these benefits were offered prior to the passage of the law.

Though all plans begin in a grandfathered status, if they change, for example by increasing deductibles or cost sharing for employees, they would lose that status and might need to make larger changes. Some preventive services would need to be covered without any cost sharing, for example, and emergency care services received outside a plan network would need to be treated as an in-network expense.

Structus, where Houser works, has about 70 employees, which means the company, like many companies with at least 50 full-time employees, will be required to offer insurance starting in 2014 or pay a penalty.

In 2014, when many of the provisions of the new law go into effect, there may be larger changes to insurance plans, Fronstin said. In a recent survey of employers, he said, 80 percent said they were considering fundamental changes to their plans and 50 percent said they didn’t know what those changes would be.

“In large part they haven’t made any decisions,” Fronstin said, “and they don’t have to for four years.”

What happens in 2014, Fronstin said, may depend on a number of factors including the strength of the economy, the labor market, individual industries and even the philosophy of the individual company.

Small-business owner Sam Carpenter Age: 60 Occupation: owner, Centratel Monthly insurance premium: $376 per employee (employees pay $90) Companies that employ fewer than 25 workers and have an average annual wage of less than $50,000 are eligible for tax credits beginning this year to help pay for insurance, though with 28 employees, Carpenter’s falls just above that threshold.

He will not be required to Sam offer insurance Carpenter as larger firms will beginning in 2014, nor will he receive incentives to do so. He will, said Fronstin, likely see his premiums increase because of new mandates on insurers, though the amount depends on his current benefits and insurance company.

Though parts of the health reform bill put both upward and downward pressure on prices, insurers are “being more vocal about (price increases) recently,” said Fronstin. “They want to make the point that the law has had an impact.”

Beginning in 2014, small businesses in every state will be able to shop for insurance on health insurance exchanges, insurance marketplaces that will offer a variety of plans. Then, “the small-business owner will have to make a decision about whether to enroll in the exchange” or continue to purchase insurance independently, said Sabrina Corlette, a research professor at the Health Policy Institute at Georgetown University.

Corlette said some states may set up the exchanges so the small-business owner chooses a plan for all his employees in the exchange, in much the same way health insurance is offered to employees today. Other states, however, may set up the exchanges so that each employee within the small business can pick a plan.

Oregon is leaning toward the latter option, said Nora Leibowitz, a senior policy analyst at the Office for Oregon Health Policy

and Research. She said no firm decisions have been made about how the exchanges will operate, and the federal regulations are unclear about what is allowed.

One structure being talked about, said Fronstin, would have employers give health care contributions to their employees as cash to buy a health insurance plan. Those who want a highcost plan would pay the difference, while those who want more bare-bones health coverage could pocket the difference.

Companies may vary in the amount each provides for employees to buy insurance. Fronstin said he sees that amount dependent on the economy, industry and job.

Individual insurance Debbie Baldwin

Age: 57 (No picture available.)

Occupation: Realtor and principle broker, Century 21 Gold Country Monthly insurance premium: $1,025 (Baldwin and spouse) Individual insurance “is where we’ll see the most dramatic changes,” said Janet Trautwein, CEO of the National Association of Health Underwriters. She said people in the individual market, those who buy insurance for themselves or their families, could see much better benefit packages but also higher costs.

Baldwin and her husband will benefit from a provision that prohibits insurers from denying coverage to people with pre-existing medical conditions.

The couple has had the same insurance for 25 years because they have no choice. Both have major medical conditions; she is diabetic and he has had heart surgery. When she tried to shop around, she said, “they laugh at us.”

When the ban on denying coverage for pre-existing conditions takes effect in 2014, Baldwin and her husband will be able to shop for insurance; they will no longer have to take the price their current insurer gives them or face no insurance at all.

Corlette said people like Baldwin will likely see premiums decrease.

However, that decrease could be coupled with premium increases for younger, healthy people, said Corlette, who have previously enjoyed low monthly health premiums. In Oregon, because of the way health insurance prices are regulated, she said, prices are less likely to jump than in other states, though there will still be changes.

Beginning this year, plans will also be required to cover items that are now not regulated. They will need to cover some preventive care items without a co-payment or deductible, will need to set up internal processes to deal with denied claims, and will not be allowed to place annual or lifetime limits on care.

In addition, depending on her income, Baldwin may be eligible for tax credits (see “Uninsured” section below) to buy insurance through health insurance exchanges.

Medicare Tom Azbell

Age: 70 Occupation: program manager, Central Oregon Council on Aging Monthly insurance premium: $255 The law makes fewer changes to Medicare and Medicare Advantage than to private insurance.

Seniors who have hit the doughnut hole, the infamous gap in prescription drug coverage written into a previous law, have likely received rebate checks from the government to help pay for Tom Azbell m e d ic a t io n s they purchased under Medicare Part D. In addition to rebate checks this year, the new law narrows that gap

so that by 2020, beneficiaries are responsible for 25 percent of their drug costs in the doughnut hole. (They are now responsible for 100 percent.)

The law also changes some benefits, including adding a wellness exam every year (rather than just once when a person enters the program) and removing co-pays for many preventive services.

Higher income beneficiaries, those making more than $85,000 for an individual or $170,000 for a couple, have for years had to pay higher premiums for Medicare Part B, the outpatient care benefit, on a sliding scale depending on income. The new law freezes these income thresholds until 2019 instead of adjusting them up annually, and may result in more people paying higher premiums for Medicare.

One of the big problems in Central Oregon has been finding a primary care provider willing to take patients with Medicare.

Until Bend Memorial Clinic began accepting the coverage in 2007, it was notoriously hard to find a provider. Most primary care doctors in other practices still do not take new Medicare patients, citing low reimbursement rates.

There are some provisions in the bill to try to address the issue, which is not unique to Central Oregon. From 2011 to 2015, primary care providers will get a 10 percent higher Medicare payment. In addition, there are incentives for medical students to go into primary care, such as loan repayment programs.

These may have indirect impacts on increasing the number of primary care providers, experts say, but will have little immediate effect.

Medicare Advantage Dorothy Sarasin

Age: 80 Occupation: retired Monthly insurance premium: $326 (Sarasin and spouse) Sarasin, like many seniors, has a Clear One Medicare Advantage plan, the most popular Medicare Advantage plan in Central Oregon.

It’s hard to tell how health reform will affect private Medicare plans, said John Rother, executive vice president for policy at AARP. “It’s almost impossible to generalize. Some plans have said Dorothy there will be Sarasin very little impact and some have said there will be some.”

Before passage of health care reform, there were concerns among policy experts that Medicare Advantage plans, which cost more per beneficiary than traditional Medicare, were raising prices for everyone and accelerating Medicare spending.

To try to remedy this issue, the new law changes the way Medicare Advantage plans are paid and reduces, overall, the amount the government will pay for the plans.

However, the formula by which these changes are made

V ITA L STATS Court date

A survey of physicians by the American Medical Association found that more than 40 percent had been sued at some point in their careers. General surgeons and obstetricians/gynecologists had the highest rates of malpractice suits, while pediatricians and psychiatrists had the lowest rates.

Physicians who have: Ever been sued 42.2%

Sued multiple times 22.4% Sued in the last 12 months 5.1%

Uninsured Robin Heiter

Age: 56 Occupation: part-time bookkeeper at physician office, parttime house cleaner Monthly insurance premium: $0 One of the goals of the health reform law is to reduce the number of people who are uninsured, now more than 50 million people, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. The legislation requires people to buy insurance beginning in 2014 and expands public programs to make it easier for lower income people to purchase it.

The new law makes more people eligible for Medicaid Robin Heiter — in Oregon it’s called the Oregon Health Plan — so that anyone who earns less than 138 percent of the federal poverty level may qualify.

Heiter, who expects to make about $20,000 in 2010, would not be eligible for Medicaid if the calculations were done today. (It’s difficult to predict poverty level or her income for 2014 when these provisions go into effect.)

Heiter would, instead, likely get her health insurance through newly set up health insurance exchanges. The exchanges, which will be set up by 2014, will allow people to shop for insurance. They will also allow people with incomes of up to 400 percent of poverty level (up to about $43,000 for Heiter’s family of one) to get tax credits when they pay more than a certain percentage of their income to health insurance premiums.

As an example, Heiter makes about 200 percent of the federal poverty level. The new law sets the maximum level of payment that Heiter is required to pay for health insurance at 6.3 percent of her income, or about $1,400 per year. If a benchmark plan in the exchange costs more than $1,400, she would receive the difference in the form of a tax credit.

Heiter could chose not to purchase health insurance and continue to go uninsured. She would however, face penalties which, for her, would likely be $200 in 2014 and increase after that.

Most Oregon hospices don’t participate in assisted suicide

By Shari Roan Los Angeles Times

In 1995, Oregon passed a bill legalizing physician-assisted suicide. However, a new study shows a major stakeholder in terminal illness — hospices — rarely participate in physician-assisted suicide.

The law permits a doctor to prescribe a fatal dose of medication to a terminally ill patient who requests it as long as certain criteria are met. The survey of 55 hospice programs in Oregon found that 25 percent did not participate in the law at all

and 27 percent had only limited participation, meaning that any questions to the hospice staff about the law were referred to an attending physician and that caregivers were not actively engaged with a patient who was intentionally ending his or her life. All of the hospices prohibited staff from helping patients obtain or take the fatal dose of medication to bring about death.

A few programs allowed staff to be present with the patient when they took the medication.

The study was published in the Hastings Center Report.

may increase the amount of money that Medicare Advantage plans in Central Oregon get. The formula increases the reimbursement in areas such as Oregon that have traditionally had low Medicare costs while lowering the reimbursements in areas that have historically had higher costs. So, while Medicare Advantage plans across the country may get less, plans here may in fact see more money from the new law.

That could allow the plans to enrich benefits or lower premiums for area seniors.

EXERCISE TIPS

Physical therapist Allison Suran explains that how your foot hits the ground with each step is a key part of a healthy walking gait. There are three distinct phases of each step.

PILATES

Swimming

1

1. HEEL STRIKE

2. FOOT FLAT

3. PUSH OFF

The first contact your foot makes with the ground should be fairly central on the heel. If you examine the wear pattern on the bottom of your shoe, you may notice you’re landing more on the outside part of the heel. It’s a common mistake.

Many people tend to skip this phase, going directly from heel strike to pushoff. After placing your heel, the outer part of your foot should come in full contact with the ground. Do not lift the inside of your foot, but concentrate on creating the outer part of your footprint.

Try to spread your toes.

The final phase involves pushing off with the ball of the foot, starting from the pinkie toe and rolling toward the big toe. Often people simply push off with their big toe, ignoring the outside of their foot.

Walking Continued from F1 “A common walking error is a tendency to lean a bit backward, or hold the trunk a bit behind the pelvis,” she said. “This interrupts good back alignment and will place undue strain anywhere along the kinetic chain.”

Suran then helps patients to improve their walking technique and posture, often with dramatic results.

“Just changing the wear-andtear pattern can be huge,” she said. “I’ve really seen people get better faster.”

Michelle Novotny came to see Suran after struggling with chronic back pain for years. She had tried a number of different treatments and didn’t feel she was making any progress.

“I was getting frustrated,” the 54-year-old Sisters resident recalls. “I do like to be active, especially living in Central Oregon.”

After attending a pair of workshops with Suran, Novotny went in for an evaluation.

“She listened to my story and watched me walk up and down the hall,” Novotny said. “She brought things to my attention that really no one had.”

Novotny said her posture was almost militaristic, resulting from years of parental prompting to stand up straight with shoulders back. Suran taught her to lean forward a bit more and to walk pushing off the balls of her feet.

“So now I’m walking and even doing a little bit of sprinting now to create more of the impact that helps with bone density,”

Reed Market Road) • 9 to 10:30 a.m. Wednesdays, Oct. 6-27 at Juniper Swim & Fitness Center (800 N.E. 6th Street, Bend) Cost: $32 in-district/$43 out-of-district; register online at https://register. bendparksandrec.org Contact: 541-389-7275

she said. “I hike and I went up Black Butte and Tam McArthur Rim. It’s been really wonderful. I couldn’t have done them a year and a half ago, or if I had, I would have really suffered for weeks afterward.”

Suran particularly encourages hiking on trails, where uneven terrain helps to build balance and strengthen different muscles.

“We weren’t born to be walking on a one-dimensional surface,” she said. “So I encourage people who aren’t at a balance risk to try more three-dimensional surfaces.”

Walking may not seem like much of a workout, but studies have repeatedly shown that people who start walking make great strides — no pun intended

— in their fitness. A recent University of Georgia study found that older adults who participated in a walking exercise program increased their likelihood of living independently by 41 percent. The study had adults over 60 work their way up from 10 minutes of walking per day to 40 minutes a day, along with stretching and balance exercises. Over four months, the walking seniors improved their aerobic capacity by 19 percent, while a control group that received only nutritional counseling saw a 9 percent decline in fitness over that same period.

“By increasing their aerobic capacity, the walking group was better able to perform their daily tasks and had more energy left over for recreational activities, like going out dancing,” said Elaine Cress, a professor of kinesiology and co-author of the study.

Suran’s classes, which start in October, will begin with 30 minutes of training tips, followed by a 30- to 60-minute group walk.

Attendees will receive a personal log and pedometer. The final class will include tips on how to keep walking through the winter. The classes are open to anyone but designed for those that might need a little more support to get moving regularly.

“It’s for the people who know they need to start walking and just aren’t going to do it by themselves,” Suran said. “It’s a way to get some really affordable coaching.”

Deb Bowen, a Rebound Pilates instructor certified by the national organization Pilates Method Alliance, demonstrates some basic Pilates moves. Pilates uses controlled movements to increase strength and flexibility and is particularly focused on the muscles of the torso. This exercise can be done individually, or you can try all eight; this is the last in a series that has been running every other week in The Bulletin.

Swimming, in Pilates, strengthens the core and the back.

How to do it: Lie on your stomach with legs and arms extended out as if in the freestyle stroke (1). Chin should be tucked slightly. Drop shoulders so they are not extended up by ears. Tighten your stomach. Raise your right leg and left arm, then quickly switch, raising the opposite leg and arm (2). Inhale for five beats, then exhale for five beats.

Some star-worthy tips from a celebrity trainer

By Madeleine Marr McClatchy Newspapers

Many people weren’t psyched to bare their extra pounds in skimpy clothing this summer.

Celebrity trainer and “food coach” Kathy Kaehler feels your pain.

The L.A.-based exercise diva — who has worked with Julia Roberts, Kim Basinger, Cindy Crawford and Kim Kardashian — provided tips to everyday office workers who can’t always (OK: ever!) find time to diet or go to the gym.

“The key is trying to get more foods into your lifestyle that are fresh,” says Kaehler. “Let’s say, an apple. That’s one step from

the tree. That’s how you primarily want to lead your life.”

One of her top mottos is the 90/10 principle. Meaning 90 percent of the time, you are “good,” and in that remaining 10 percent you can go hog-wild on the cupcakes or chips.

“That breakdown is realistic,” says the mother of three. “We don’t want to be feeling that we are completely deprived. It’s about life and celebrations and taking that indulgence and not worrying, ‘Oh my gosh, I have to run out to the treadmill now.’”

If you’re one of those employees who brings lunch to munch in between e-mails, pack well the night before, Kaehler advises.

Family, work support critical when training for marathon

By Roberta MacInnis Houston Chronicle

If you plan to run a winter marathon, it’s time to move. Just follow these three easy steps for arriving at the start line healthy and prepared to go. The 26.2 miles after that will be up to you.

Why are you doing it?

To get fit? To raise money for a charity? To win a bar bet? Motivation is important because training requires a lot of effort.

“Having a clear goal — it does help to know why you want to do it because it’s a lot of miles and a lot of time,” said Ruth England, a coach and co-owner of Rogue Running in Austin, Texas. She suggested runners raise funds for causes that resonate with them.

“That might help them to get out there on those days they are tired,” she said.

And there will be a lot of those days.

“It’s a commitment. I say it from the get-go,” said Mindy Solkin, owner and head coach of the Running Center in New York. “You’ve got to commit to the process of training.”

That may mean skipping a second margarita Friday night so you’re fresh for a 10-mile run Saturday morning or setting the alarm an hour earlier on weekdays to get your workouts done before the business of life gets in the way. There are sacrifices to make, England said.

Aspiring marathon runners also need to rally the troops.

Your spouse should understand that you’re going to bed at 8 p.m.

because you’re tired, not because he or she is boring.

“It’s important to have a network of support from family, friends, coworkers, even the boss,” Solkin said.

England suggested getting family members involved, perhaps by having them train for a shorter race, such as a 5K or half-marathon, associated with the main event.

Have a plan Generally, expect to run a minimum of three to four days a week. One of those days should be a long run, another should include a harder effort, and the rest should be done at an easy pace.

The distances will increase as you become stronger. England said that during the most intense training phase, beginners should be running 30 to 35 miles a week, intermediates 45 to 50 miles and advanced 50 miles and up.

Specifically, you don’t need to reinvent the wheel. Myriad books, magazines and websites offer proven schedules developed by accomplished worldclass marathon runners that will tell you exactly how far and how hard to run each day, based on your ability and experience.

You might also consider a training group or running club.

“You learn so much from the people,” England said. “If you’ve never run 10 miles, it will feel like 1 million miles. But if you’re running and talking about your life, their life, the weather, it will go so much faster.”

Execute the plan The experts are unanimous: The first step in any marathon training program should be getting good shoes that work for your feet from a specialty running store. The $85 or so is a bargain compared to the medical costs should you get injured.

Noncotton socks and a running watch are essential, too.

To gauge your current fitness level, enter a 5K or run a 2- or 3mile time trial. You can then plug your time into a calculator that will estimate a realistic goal time for a marathon. You will also be able to gauge how fast you should be running the harder runs.

The experts are also unanimous on a second point: Don’t overdo it.

“Consistent weekly mileage and long runs are the keys to success. Do not run hard workouts if it will make it impossible to get your weekly mileage completed,” said Sean Wade, a former Olympic marathon runner.

“Listen to your body,” Wade said. “If you have any soreness, just jog easy instead of doing a harder workout.”

Wade also insists his runners produce “negative splits” on their long runs; that is, the second half of the run should be faster than the first half. But the entire run should be done at a relaxed pace.

Experts agree: Recovery time is essential. Any credible training program must include at least one day off each week.

“And by off, I mean off, off, off,” Solkin said. “Go to the movies; I mean truly no exercise whatsoever.”

For example, make a pasta dish with a protein and a vegetable. When the 4 o’clock hungries hit, feel free to snack. But steer away from the typical vending machines full of fatty junk.

As for physical calorie busters: ditch the elevator and take the stairs.Record your daily footsteps with a pedometer, Kaehler advises. “You’re looking at a goal of about 10,000 steps every day.”

Walk around the office when you can and bypass the interoffice mail.

“Offer to bring over something to someone at another cubicle or different area,” says Kaehler.

“They’ll appreciate it — and you’ll be the one who benefits.”

Next week Nurses use mannequins to train during down time in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.

CEL EB RIT Y M EDICINE TV host Dr. Oz’s colonoscopy catches precancerous polyp It’s nice to know that some doctors practice what they preach. TV personality Dr. Mehmet Oz recently followed his own recommendation and had a colonoscopy when he turned 50. The screening test revealed he had an adenomatous polyp, a precancerous growth that his doctor was able to remove on the spot. Colonoscopies are recommended every 10 years starting at age 50 for both men or women to screen for colon cancer.

Most polyps take about 10 years to become cancerous.

But as Oz’s case demonstrates, colonoscopies can also prevent

cancer, by catching and removing polyps before they turn into cancer. Up to half of all adults will have some polyps in the colons, although only adenomatous polyps can turn into cancer. Other types have virtually no chance of becoming cancerous.

When doctors find a polyp, they insert a wire loop through the scope and cut off the polyp.

Patients who have adenomatous polyps should be screened more regularly in the future.

More universities taking shot at deadly meningitis

By Marissa Cevallos The Orlando Sentinel

Herbs Continued from F1 “And now most people using alternative medicine in Western society are those who have immigrated from developing countries,” she said.

Many combine the home remedies with modern medicine, working with doctors who teach them to avoid bad combinations or overuse of alternative treatments.

Like Curiel, Rebecca Gonzalez’s grandmother was known in her town in Mexico as the woman with the remedies and knowledge. Gonzalez said that back then, in the rural town, even if people wanted to go to a doctor it was impossible to find one.

“So part of it may have been necessity, but part of it may have been a way of life,” she said.

Gonzalez said she still relies on teas to help with a sore throat or insomnia before she’ll go to a doctor or take a pill. And in the winter, to avoid getting sick, she said, she always has cinnamon or mint tea brewing.

But the Sacramento woman said she doesn’t use all the handed-down remedies, among them softening the pain of tonsillitis by swallowing an egg yolk sprinkled with sugar. Or warming a banana peel and placing it on the bottom of her foot to soothe a sore throat.

“I am more cautious now and I probably would take the kids to the doctor for things that may seem more serious,” Gonzalez said.

Dr. Ashby Wolfe, of the department of family and community medicine at the University of California Davis Medical Center, said a lot of her patients are Latino and many have used some kind of alternative medication.

It’s her routine to ask every patient.

“It is important that we as doctors ask if they are using alternative medications and pay attention to these forms of medications,” Wolfe said.

Too much of an herb can become toxic, and it can be unsafe to take some of them with prescribed medications.

But alternative medicine can also complement prescribed medicines, Wolfe said.

A 2007 National Health Interview Survey found that 38 percent of adults reported using complementary and alternative medicine in the previous months.

Wolfe and Campbell both said they believe doctors don’t get enough training in complementary and alternative medicines.

Curiel’s training has come from experience. And the success of his advice relies partly on faith.

“Not all the home remedies that I know of work for everyone, but staying hopeful and positive definitely helps,” he said.

Some common herbal remedies CHAMOMILE Uses: Flowering tops of the plant are used to make teas, liquid extracts, capsules or tablets for sleeplessness, anxiety and gastrointestinal conditions.

Can be applied to the skin as a cream or an ointment for various skin conditions, or used as a mouth rinse to treat mouth ulcers.

The science: Has not been well studied in people so there is little evidence to support its usage.

Side effects: Allergic reactions can include skin rashes, throat swelling, shortness of breath and anaphyla xis.

CINNAMON Uses: Orally, cassia cinnamon is used for type 2 diabetes, gas, muscle and gastrointestinal spasms, preventing nausea and vomiting, diarrhea, infections, the common cold and loss of appetite. Also used for impotence, bed wetting, rheumatic conditions, testicle hernia and menopausal symptoms.

The science: Cinnamon is a good source of manganese, an important component of a healthful diet. It contains a substance that activates formerly inhibited insulin receptors.

Side effects: Its anticlotting properties can cause profuse bleeding in conjunction with other blood thinners if a patient is injured, menstruating excessively or has surgery.

GARLIC Uses: High cholesterol, heart disease, highblood pressure and certain types of cancer, including stomach and colon cancers. Garlic cloves can be eaten raw or cooked. They can be dried or powdered and used in tablets and capsules. Raw cloves

“Not all the home remedies that I know of work for everyone, but staying hopeful and positive definitely helps.”

— Valentin Curiel, who grew up in Mexico For depression, Curiel suggests showering with palo de Brazil, or Brazilwood. He tells people it can heal the heart and calm the nerves just by holding it while in the shower.

For people who have skin infections or gastritis, he suggests a plant called cuachalalate

can be used to make oils and liquid extracts.

The science: Garlic may slow the development of atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries), and may slightly lower blood pressure.

Side effects: Breath and body odor, heartburn, upset stomach and allergic reactions all more common with raw garlic.

ALOE VERA Uses: Clear gel from the leaves is often used as a topical ointment for burns and other conditions.

The green part of the leaf can be used to produce a juice or a dried substance taken orally for diabetes, asthma, epilepsy and osteoarthritis.

The science: Topical aloe gel may help heal burns and abrasions.

Other uses have not been heavily researched.

Side effects: Gel can inhibit healing of deep surgical wounds.

Abdominal cramps and diarrhea have been reported with oral use, which can decrease the absorption of many drugs.

ST. JOHN’S WORT Uses: Sleep disorders, nerve pain and mental disorders such as depression and anxiety. Also can be used as a sedative, to treat malaria and as a balm for wounds, burns and insect bites.

The science: Studies have shown varied degrees of success in treating depression.

Side effects: May cause increased sensitivity to sunlight. Other side effects can include anxiety, dry mouth, dizziness, gastrointestinal symptoms, fatigue, headache or sexual dysfunction.

that can be soaked in water and rubbed on the skin. He also tells them to drink the leftover water as a tea.

Curiel treats his own diabetes with nopalitos, a prickly pear cactus. He said it also can be used to lower the need for cholesterol medication and treat gastrointestinal disorders, skin ailments and viral infections. He tells people to cook the nopalitos and eat them on their own or drink them in a smoothie.

Gonzales said she believes her children will continue the homeremedy tradition.

“These remedies are part of their culture and they come with the story of ‘This is what my grandmother did,’ so maybe it will work,” Gonzalez said.

Few diseases can strike and leave their victim deaf, braindamaged or dead within 24 hours.

But such is the nature of meningitis, the rare but deadly brain-attacking disease that can be passed to others by sharing silverware or swapping a juicy kiss.

Though the disease is not common — its bacterial form infects 1,000 to 2,600 Americans each year — the meningococcal bacterium can be blocked by a single vaccination.

More colleges and universities have started requiring the immunization for incoming freshmen, who are at higher risk for contracting it than upperclassmen or non-college

students the same age, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. And meningitis advocacy groups are encouraging middle- and highschool nurses to promote the shot to even younger students.

“I know this vaccine can save a life,” said Carolyn Seifert, an Apopka High School nurse. She is a member of the Florida Association of School Nurses, which began advocating last year for more meningitis vaccinations.

“I really don’t want to see students suffer needlessly.”

Meningitis is tough to spot in its early stages because it acts like a common virus. Early symptoms include fever, weakness, pain in the head and neck, nausea and vomiting. Sensitivity to light, an altered mental state and convulsions can ac-

company these symptoms.

A rash may appear as the disease progresses, according to the National Meningitis Association.

Irreversible brain damage can occur within 24 hours in adults, and even sooner in children.

Some types of meningitis are caused by a virus and others by bacterium, but the bacterial form is more deadly. The bacteria is transmitted through saliva, not through blood or sexual fluids like a sexually transmitted disease.

About 10 percent of Americans who are infected each year will die. Among survivors, one in five is left with severe medical problems such as amputation, deafness or organ damage.

Teens and young adults have a five times greater risk of dying than older victims, Seifert said.
