Bend nears decision on $73M water overhaul

GOVERNOR’S RACE

2 budget plans: lots of targets, few cuts

By Nick Grube The Bulletin

Bend City Councilors are poised to make a decision on whether to continue pursuing a $73 million overhaul of the Bridge Creek water system within the next several weeks.

On Wednesday, councilors heard new financial information that showed upgrading the “I think Bridge Creek infrastructure we do our community would save be$372 mila disservice tween lion and $454 for the next million over the next 50 years 50 to 100 years if we when compared to switching to abandon an all-well sysour surface tem that would water.” pump groundwater to meet — Oran Bend’s water Teater, Bend demands. city councilor They were also given information about complex water rights issues that could threaten the city’s chances of being able to pump more groundwater if it gave up its surface water system.

These issues made some councilors, in particular Mark Capell and Oran Teater, act as if upgrading the Bridge Creek system was the only option.

“This is significantly more clear for me,” Councilor Oran Teater said after the more than an hour long presentation. “I think we do our community a disservice for the next 50 to 100 years if we abandon our surface water.”

An upgrade to the Bridge Creek system has several components, including replacing 10 miles of aging pipelines and adding a high-tech filtration system that would protect against future wildfires and treat for dangerous bacteria and microorganisms, like Cryptosporidium. City officials also want to add a hydropower plant that would take advantage of Bridge Creek’s higher elevation and use gravity to generate electricity.

When first proposed, the cost of the project was estimated at $71 million, and expected to generate $1.7 million in hydropower revenues in the first year of operation.

Fighting crime with words Following last week’s standoff, officers discuss aspects of job

fter a Bend man made threats about violence and barricaded himself inside his northeast Bend apartment last week, dozens of police turned out to help get the situation under control.

Curious onlookers who gathered along the sidewalks near the Greenwood Manor apartment complex watched as police cars and armored vehicles pulled up and SWAT team members put on their gear and surrounded the building.

They saw officers monitoring the situation from a command center in a nearby parking lot.

What they couldn’t see, however, was one of the most important parts of the entire operation: The police negotiators who spent nearly four hours talking to the man on the phone, trying to figure out what he planned to do and keep him from hurting himself or anyone else.

The incident ended without any injuries when officers fired a Taser through a broken window and then took 52-year-old Mark Hipple into custody. Police had believed Hipple was armed with a rifle, but later found that he had no weapons in his apartment.

Stem cell case spells uncertainty for scientists

By Amy Harmon New York Times News Service

CINCINNATI — Rushing to work at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center one recent morning, Dr. Jason Spence, 33, grabbed a moment during breakfast to type “stem cells” into Google and click for the last 24 hours of news. It is a routine he has performed daily in the six weeks since a U.S. District Court ruling put the future of his research in jeopardy.

“It’s always at the front of my brain when I wake up,”

said Spence, who has spent four years training to turn stem cells derived from human embryos into pancreatic tissue in the hope of helping diabetes patients. “You have this career plan to do all of this research, and the thought that they could just shut it off is pretty nerve-racking.”

Perhaps more than any other field of science, the study of embryonic stem cells has been subject to ethical objections and shaped by political opinion.

SALEM — Oregon’s next governor will inherit a projected hole of more than $3 billion in the 2011-13 two-year general fund budget. And whoever wins that job — Republican Chris Dudley or Democrat John Kitzhaber — won’t find it an easy task.

While the governor is able to propose a budget, it’s the Legislature that approves it. And though the governor is tasked with negotiating labor contracts, the Legislature can influence that as well.

Not only that, but there is a slew of entrenched interests, many with lobbyists, ready to do battle over state spending.

“Every spending category has its own interest group, so I don’t think any of it’s easy money,” said Chuck Sheketoff of the Oregon Center for Public Policy, which tracks state spending.

The likelihood of another large Chris Dudley stimulus boost from the federal government?

“At the moment, close to zero,” says Bill Lunch, chairman of the Oregon State University political science department and an OPB commentator.

So which gubernatorial candidate is better poised to tackle the next budget, and who has the John better plan?

Kitzhaber First, the plans.

Dudley, a former NBA player turned investment adviser, has proposed a budget plan that makes going after labor and pension costs of state employees a priority. For instance, he wants state employees to contribute one-sixth of their health care costs, and to reverse the state’s decision to pay for employees’ retirement contributions, which amount to 6 percent of payroll. He wants to undertake a variety of initiatives that create better budgeting, privatize state operations and look for waste in government.

HEALTH CARE

Waivers used to counter dropped coverage in U.S.

By Reed Abelson New York Times News Service

As Obama administration officials put into place the first major wave of changes under the health care legislation, they have tried to defuse stiffening resistance — from companies like McDonald’s and some insurers — by granting dozens of waivers to maintain even minimal coverage far below the new law’s standards.

The waivers have been issued in the past several weeks as part of a broader strategic effort to stave off threats by some health insurers to abandon markets, drop out of the business altogether or refuse to sell certain policies.

Among those that administration officials hoped to mollify with waivers were some big insurers, some smaller employers and McDonald’s, which went so far as to warn that the regulations could force it to strip workers of existing coverage.

Obama hails NEA spending $15M on campaign ads community colleges at summit MIDTERM ELECTIONS

By Nick Anderson

The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — The nation’s largest teachers union is jumping into the midterm congressional elections, mostly on behalf of Democrats, with what it describes as a $15 million advertising fund “to elect education champions.”

The National Education Association’s foray into dozens of battleground races comes despite President Obama’s advocacy of school-improvement policies that rankle many union activists, such as teacher performance pay and staff shake-ups at low-performing schools.

Karen White, the NEA’s political director, said the 3.2 million-member union is in sync with Obama more often than not. As an example, she

pointed to his support for a $10 billion education funding bill that the Democratic-led Congress passed in August over Republican opposition.

“That education jobs bill got so many of our members engaged,” White said.

“It was a turning point for us.”

‘Bumps in the road’

She played down controversy over Obama’s school reform agenda as “bumps in the road,” adding, “we share the same goals as this administration.”

Critics of the union say that it stands for the status quo in education and against innovation, which the NEA disputes. The next Congress is likely to debate revisions to the 2002 No Child Left Behind law, a key issue for

the union.

The NEA said its first round of television ads began airing this week in Arizona, where the union is supporting Rep. Harry Mitchell (D), and in Ohio, where it is backing Rep. Betty Sutton (D).

Overall, White said, the union plans $40 million in political spending this election cycle. In dozens of targeted races, most of the union’s recommended candidates are Democrats.

But NEA officials said they are backing selected Republicans who have supported their causes, including Sen. Lisa Murkowski (Alaska) and Reps.

Anh “Joseph” Cao (La.) and Judy Biggert (Ill.).

The American Federation of Teachers, with 1.5 million members, declined to discuss its political spending.

Bullied girl grateful for chance to defend others

By Walter Pacheco The Orlando (Fla.) Sentinel

LAKE MARY, Fla. — The disabled girl who was bullied on a Florida school bus turned the tables on her tormentors Tuesday by thanking them for empowering her to defend other disabled children.

“Thank you so much for bullying me because it taught me a lesson about disabled kids,” said Chatari Jones, 12, who suffers from cerebral palsy. “We are disabled for a reason.”

Cerebral palsy is a disorder that affects communication, posture and other motor skills.

Although her parents said she does not show many outward signs of the disorder, it has affected her speech and walk.

James Willie Jones and Deborah McFadden-Jones joined their daughter and attorney Natalie Jackson as

they addressed the media Tuesday at their church, Spirit of Truth Ministries in Lake Mary, Fla. Her father said Chatari’s ordeal at the hands of bullies who spit in her hair and called her names, often sparked by her disability, has given her the courage to speak nationally and publicly about the taunts children under similar circumstances suffer at school.

Julie Hertzog, director of PACER’s National Center for Bullying Prevention in Minnesota, also was on hand to express her gratitude to Chatari.

“We have a number of kids with disabilities who are being bullied,” Hertzog said. “Hopefully, (Chatari’s) courage and bravery will spare others.”

The family has been holding new conferences in hopes of drawing attention to the problems of bullying.

October is National Bullying Prevention Month.

A security video shot from inside a Seminole County school bus in September catapulted James Jones into the media spotlight because it showed him boarding the bus at a stop and threatening students for allegedly bullying his daughter.

Seminole County Sheriff’s Office deputies a few days later arrested Jones on charges of disorderly conduct and disturbing a school function.

He faces misdemeanor charges and is out on bond.

Jones apologized for his violent reaction on national television, as well as during a September press conference at the family’s church. He said he did not want parents to act out as he had done, especially when children are concerned.

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama used a special White House conference Tuesday to tout the nation’s community colleges as offering a path to the American dream for underprivileged citizens and as essential centers for training the 21st-century work force.

He glossed over, however, the serious funding challenges that these institutions face.

Calling community “Community colleges the “unsung colleges are heroes” of the U.S. educational system, uniquely Obama said that they American, places “provide a gateway to millions of Americans where anyone to good jobs and a bet- who walks ter life.”

Jill Biden, the wife through the door of Vice President Joe is one step closer Biden, introduced to the American Obama during the first White House meeting dream.” on community colleges. She has been — Jill Biden, wife of a community college Vice President Joe professor for the past Biden 17 years and a tireless advocate for the twoyear schools. She spearheaded the daylong event, which brought together educators from across the nation for brainstorming.

“Community colleges are uniquely American, places where anyone who walks through the door is one step closer to the American dream,” Jill Biden said during an opening ceremony that featured the unveiling of a $35 million grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.

That donation will set up a grant program for five years whose goal will be to reverse a trend in which roughly half of community college students fail to achieve certificates or associate’s degrees.

The White House also announced a new publicprivate partnership to foster closer links between community colleges and corporate America, labor unions and government agencies. This effort will try to standardize what has worked best at various schools, particularly in creating certified skills that can be recognized across the nation.

The National Association of Manufacturers has pioneered the concept of national recognition and so-called stackable skills for a modern work force.

Its Manufacturing Institute already is engaged in three national pilot projects, including one in Winston-Salem, N.C., that recently helped convince Caterpillar Inc. to locate a plant there.

Yet the National Association of Manufacturers, which has been critical of the Obama administration on tax matters, was conspicuously absent from the list of invitees. Association officials confirmed the snub but declined to comment.

“I’d say they’ve been trailblazers,” said David Baime, the senior vice president for government relations at the American Association of Community Colleges.

His association nonetheless was thrilled to be in the spotlight.

“The event is going to be a red-letter day for community colleges. We have felt for some time that our contributions have not been recognized,” Baime said. “Policymakers are still surprised to learn that over 45 percent of all students in higher education attend community colleges in this country.”

Obama challenged the educators to help him meet his goal of having the United States recoup by 2020 its position as the nation with the highest percentage of college graduates.

Americans scaling back college fund deposits

By Ylan Q. Mui The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — American families are scaling back plans to pay for their children’s college education as the stunted economic recovery continues to weigh on household budgets, according to a survey commissioned by college lender Sallie Mae. The study, which was conducted by Gallup, found that the percentage of families who planned to make little or no contribution to tuition increased, while the percentage who expected to cover more than half of expenses decreased. The trends were particularly pronounced in Hispanic families, where the number who thought they could only pay a little jumped from 12 percent to 35 percent.

In addition, the percentage of families who said the reason they are not socking away money for college is that they cannot afford it rose from 62 percent last year to 68 percent this year.

“They’re adjusting their expectations to the economic con-

ditions, both generally and what they may be experiencing on the individual level,” said Bill Diggins, Gallup’s lead researcher on the survey.

Still, the study found that even though families are financially stressed, saving for college remained a priority. About onefifth of families reported it as a top financial goal — up from 14 percent last year and on par with those who rank saving for retirement as the priority.

Flash point in D.C. The rising cost of college education has become a flash point in Washington as the recession hampered families’ ability to foot the bill. According to a survey by the nonprofit College Board, which administers standardized tests, the cost of attending a private university has risen 2.6 percent a year over the past decade, while public college jumped nearly 5 percent annually.

On average, families have saved about $28,000 to pay for

college. About 12 percent of that money is in 529 plans, while 14 percent comes from general savings accounts or certificates of deposit. Another 21 percent comes from investments, but the largest portion of that money — 23 percent — is in retirement savings.

A ‘bit disturbing’ Sallie Mae Senior Vice President Sarah Ducich said the finding that families are relying heavily on retirement accounts “is a little bit disturbing.”

Financial experts say that raiding retirement accounts to pay for children’s college can be risky.

There are tax penalties and other fees if money is withdrawn from the accounts early, and loans against a retirement plan come with restrictions on how quickly they must be paid off and the amount that can be borrowed.

“The education and the retirement are two different buckets.

We would never put them together,” said Marcia Tillotson, senior

vice president of investments for Wells Fargo Advisors. “You can borrow for college. You cannot borrow for retirement.”

The study also found that although low-income families saved less money than wealthy households, they still put away an average of $1,788 annually toward college. For families making less than $35,000, that represents about 8 percent of their budget — the largest percentage of any income level. Families making more than $100,000, for example, saved 2.6 percent of

their income.

Ducich said the finding underscores the value of college education to poor families, many of whom may not have had similar opportunities.

“For these families, that’s the ticket out,” she said.

T S U.S. issues apology for Pakistani deaths in airstrike

By Jonathan S. Landay McClatchy-Tribune News Service

KABUL, Afghanistan — The U.S. apologized Wednesday for the deaths of two Pakistani paramilitary troops and the wounding of four others in a cross-border airstrike by U.S. helicopters that prompted Islamabad to close two vital supply routes used by the U.S.led force in Afghanistan.

The latest flare-up comes as the Obama administration steps up public and private Related pressure on • Gunmen Pakistan continue to crack strikes on down on supply the Afghan convoys, Ta l iba n and allied Page A6 groups. A new White House report to Congress says bluntly that Pakistan’s civilian and military leaders have been unwilling to attack al-Qaida and other terrorist groups, The Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday.

Officials in Washington said that intensified strikes inside Pakistan by manned and pilotless aircraft — and reportedly also by Afghan fighters — are an effort to pressure Pakistan to move against the Haqqani network, an insurgent group based in Pakistan’s North Waziristan tribal area.

“The message is clear: ‘If you won’t act, we will,’ ” said one U.S. official in Washington, who wasn’t authorized to talk about the issue.

Wednesday’s apology by the U.S. ambassador to Pakistan, Anne Patterson, came after the U.S.-led force in Afghanistan announced that a joint investigation into the Sept. 30 incident conducted with the Pakistani military found that the U.S. helicopters mistook the paramilitary troops for insurgents.

U.S. SUPREME COURT

Justices hear funeral-protest case

By Adam Liptak

Challenge to background checks falters before court

New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court heard arguments Wednesday in a highly charged case involving protesters objecting to homosexuality who picketed a military funeral.

The father of a fallen Marine sued members of a Kansas church who had used his son’s funeral to spread their message that God is punishing the United States for its tolerance of homosexuality by killing its soldiers.

“We’re talking about a funeral,” Sean Summers, a lawyer for the father, Albert Snyder, told the justices. “Mr. Snyder simply wanted to bury his son in a private, dignified manner.”

The lawyer on the other side, Margie Phelps, said the First Amendment protected the protest, where seven pickets at some distance from the funeral carried signs with messages like “Thank God for dead soldiers” and “God hates you.”

Phelps is a daughter of the pastor of the church, Westboro Baptist Church of Topeka, Kan. Her argument alternated between smooth exposition of First Amendment doctrine and support for the church’s message.

“Nation, hear this little church,” she said. “If you want them to stop dying, stop sinning.”

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg noted that state and local governments had enacted laws creating content-neutral buffer zones around funerals. She suggested that those sorts of laws were a better societal response to protests than allowing private-injury suits.

Justice Samuel Alito Jr. said the existence of a buffer zone imposed by law did not necessarily pre-empt other remedies.

Snyder won an $11 million jury verdict against the pastor, Fred Phelps Sr., and his church, for intentional infliction of emotional distress, which required proof of outrageous conduct, and for invasion of privacy. But a federal appeals court overturned the verdict on First Amendment grounds.

The argument Wednesday featured disputes about the facts and a parade of hypothetical alternatives.

Summers said that some of the signs made the fallen Marine, Lance Cpl. Matthew Snyder, and

WASHINGTON — Scientists at a California research facility appeared likely to lose their challenge to background checks required by a Bush administration anti-terrorism initiative, judging from the justices’ questions on Tuesday during arguments at the Supreme Court.

Starting in 2005, the government required federal contractors to conduct background checks of their employees using standard forms. The scientists objected to inquiries about drug counseling and wide-ranging questioning of their acquaintances.

The issue in the case was whether making the scientists submit to the checks as a condition of employment violated a constitutional right to privacy.

In two decisions in 1977, the Supreme Court said there might be a constitutional right to “informational privacy,” but the court was not clear about its possible scope.

Neal Katyal, the acting solicitor general, argued the case for the government. He urged the court to take only a small step toward bringing clarity to the topic by ruling that the background checks at issue did not violate whatever right existed.

Katyal argued that when the government acted as an employer, he said, it should be able to ask about potentially relevant matters just as private employers would do.

Margie Phelps, right, and Shirley Phelps-Roper of the Westboro Baptist Church, of Tokepa, Kan., speak to the press outside the U.S. Supreme Court in Washington on Wednesday. In a test for freespeech and the First Amendment versus privacy, the Supreme Court heard arguments as to whether the church has a protected right to hold anti-gay protests at U.S. military funerals. his family their targets, including one that said, “You’re going to hell.”

Ginsburg noted that the church used those signs at many protests.

“It sounds like the ‘you’ was the whole society, the whole rotten society in their view,” she said.

Intrusion out of case Summers then made a concession that some justices seemed to view as problematic, saying that his client would have had no case if the signs were purely political protests against, say, the war in Iraq.

“So the intrusion upon the privacy of the funeral is out of the case,” Justice Antonin Scalia mused.

Summers tried to distinguish his case from the leading decision in this area, Hustler Magazine v.

Falwell in 1988, which overturned a jury award in favor of the Rev. Jerry Falwell for intentional infliction of emotional distress.

That case involved a public figure, Summers said, while Snyder was a private one.

Justice Elena Kagan responded with a quotation from the Falwell decision. “ ‘Outrageousness’ in the area of political and social discourse has an inherent subjectiveness about it which would allow a jury to impose liability on the basis of the jurors’ tastes or views, or perhaps on the basis of their dislike of a particular expression,” she said, quoting Chief Justice William Rehnquist’s majority opinion.

“How is that sentence less implicated,” Kagan asked, “in a case about a private figure than a case about a public figure?”

Summers said private grief raised different issues.

Other methods Kagan and Alito asked Phelps questions about other sorts of potentially hurtful conduct, like following a wounded soldier around or accosting a grandmother after a visit to a soldier’s grave.

Phelps for the most part parried the questions, saying that antistalking laws and the “fighting words” exception to the First

Amendment could address those situations.

The church’s conduct was different, she said.

“Seven picketers,” she said. “A thousand feet away. Out of sight.

Out of sound.”

They were, she added, “standing where the police said to stand.”

The Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press and 21 news organizations, including The New York Times Co., filed a brief supporting the Kansas church. It said the First Amendment protects even hateful speech on matters of public concern.

Before the argument in the case, Snyder v. Phelps, No. 09751, members of the church protested outside the Supreme Court.

Abigail Phelps, another one of the pastor’s daughters, carried a sign that said “America is doomed.”

Phelps said she expected the court to rule in favor of the church.

“They’re going to uphold the law of the land that you may express a contrary view in a public forum without being sued,” she said.

AFGHANISTAN

Taliban, government in talks, sources say

By Karen DeYoung, Peter Finn and Craig Whitlock The Washington Post

Taliban representatives and the government of Afghan President Hamid Karzai have begun secret, high-level talks over a negotiated end to the war, according to Afghan and Arab sources.

The talks follow inconclusive meetings, hosted by Saudi Arabia, that ended more than a year ago. While emphasizing the preliminary nature of the current discussions, the sources said that for the first time they believe that Taliban representatives are fully authorized to speak for the Quetta Shura, the Afghan Taliban organization based in Pakistan, and its leader, Mohammad Omar.

“They are very, very serious about finding a way out,” one source close to the talks said of the Taliban.

Although Omar’s representatives have long publicly insisted that negotiations were impossible until all foreign troops withdraw, a position seemingly buoyed by the Taliban’s resilience on the battlefield, sources said the Quetta Shura has begun to talk about a comprehensive agreement that would include participation of some Taliban figures in the government and the withdrawal of U.S. and NATO troops on an agreed timeline.

The leadership knows “that they are going to be sidelined,” the source said. “They know that more radical elements are being promoted within their rank and file outside their control. . . . All these things are making them absolutely sure that, regardless of ‘their success in’ the war, they are not in a winning position.”

A half-dozen sources directly involved in or on the margins of

the talks agreed to discuss them on the condition of anonymity.

All emphasized the preliminary nature of the talks, even as they differed on how specific they have been. All expressed concern that any public description of the meetings would undercut them.

“If you talk about it while you’re doing it, it’s not going to work,” said one European official whose country has troops in Afghanistan.

Several sources said the discussions with the Quetta Shura do not include representatives of the Haqqani group, a separately led faction that U.S. intelligence considers particularly brutal and that has been the target of recently escalated U.S. drone attacks in northwestern Pakistan.

Ties to Pakistan The Haqqani group is seen as more closely tied to the Pakistani intelligence service than the Quetta Shura, based in the southwestern Pakistani province of Baluchistan. But one Afghan source, reflecting tension between the two governments, said Pakistan’s insistence on a central role in any negotiations has made talks difficult even with the Quetta group. “They try to keep very tight control,” this source said of the Pakistanis.

Reports of the talks come amid what Afghan, Arab and European sources said they see as a distinct change of heart by the Obama administration toward full backing of negotiations. Although President Barack Obama and his national security team have long said the war would not be won by military means alone, sources said the administration only recently appeared open to

talks rather than resisting them.

“We did not have consensus, and there were some who thought they could do it militarily,” said a second European official. The Europeans said the American shift began in the summer, as combat intensified with smaller-than-expected NATO gains despite the arrival of the full complement of new U.S. troops, amid rising U.S. public opposition to the war.

The United States’ European partners in Afghanistan, with different histories and under far stronger domestic pressure to withdraw their troops, have always been more amenable to a negotiated settlement. “What it really boils down to is the Americans both supporting and in some cases maybe even participating in talking with the enemy,” the first European official said. “If you strip everything away, that’s the deal here. For so long, politically, it’s been a deal breaker in the United States, and with some people it still is.”

Equipment tracks asteroids, communicates with rovers and probes in the final frontier

By Kurt Streeter Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — Frequented more by packs of stray burros than by cars, the road is a lonely one. Thirty-five miles north of Barstow, Calif., 30 minutes from the nearest highway, it ambles through parched desert before dropping into a low valley.

Here, where the pavement ends, the great antenna rises.

“Only this isn’t just any ordinary antenna,” said Peter Hames, an engineer who oversees the massive structure for La Canada Flintridge’s Jet Propulsion Laboratories. “It doesn’t get much fanfare, but this is one of the main contributors to our understanding of the solar system.”

Deep Space Station 14 — informally dubbed the Mars antenna

Negotiators Continued from A1 Though the standoff required a significant response, Bend Police Sgt. Dan Ritchie, one of the two negotiators who talked with Hipple, said it wasn’t an entirely unusual situation.

Dozen incidents a year On average, the negotiators who work with the Central Oregon Emergency Response Team — the tri-county SWAT team — are called to about a dozen incidents a year. Many involve people who are armed and threatening to harm themselves or refusing to come out of a building or a car without a struggle. In a few cases, a suspect is holding someone hostage.

Frequently, the situation is fueled by drugs or alcohol, and may be complicated by mental illness.

Bend Police Lt. Paul Kansky, who oversees the SWAT team, said the seven negotiators who respond to calls — five from the Bend Police Department and two from the Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office — are a vital part of any SWAT incident.

“They’re trained and have the ability to talk to somebody, to make sense of the things that aren’t making sense,” Kansky said. “Most of the time, if they’re not able to gain complete compliance, then they are able to make a real volatile situation more safe than it was.”

Officers who want to become negotiators have to go through a selection process and intensive training.

Ritchie said it’s rare that there’s a spot on the team, as negotiators

Big and versatile Despite its heft, it easily tilts and twists as it tracks asteroids, rovers on distant planets, and probes rocketing as far as 11 billion miles away.

Tucked inside a federally owned swath of the Mojave known as Goldstone, the antenna is little known outside JPL and NASA’s Washington, D.C., headquarters.

No match None can match Deep Space Station 14 for its combination of communications power and historical significance, said Cornell astronomy professor Steven Squyres, lead scientific investigator for the Mars Rover project.

The focus of the $5.6 million repair project, led by JPL and paid for by NASA, has been on the guts of the structure, an 80-foot-wide ring of steel and cement known as the hydrostatic bearing. It provides a foundation for the dish, allowing it to spin on a horizontal plane. Like a puck on slippery ice, the dish rotates by sliding on a thin coat of oil constantly pumped

tend to stick with the job for years. But when there is an opening, supervisors look for officers who have shown a particular tal- Sgt. Scott ent for interact- Herrmann ing with people on the street.

“A lot of times we hear people, but we don’t really listen,” he said.

Before they can start taking calls, negotiators attend an intensive class organized by the FBI. Back home, they participate in regular training sessions with the SWAT team and meet frequently with each other to review previous incidents and prepare for future situations.

The current team includes a patrol supervisor, school resource officers, a detective, jail staff and a member of the tricounty drug enforcement team.

Like the rest of the SWAT team, the negotiators are on call 24 hours a day.

And each time, things are a bit different.

In some cases, there’s time to get background on the person making threats and the negotiator can begin the conversation with the basics: Who the person is, where they live, if they suffer from mental illness, if they’ve been in jail.

Other times, it’s completely up to the negotiator to quickly assess the situation, develop a rapport with the person, and figure out what triggered the crisis.

Sgt. Scott Herrmann, who works as a negotiator and at the Deschutes County jail, said it’s usually more about listening than talking, especially at first.

“You basically try to become their friend for a few minutes,” he said. “At first they kind of believe a lot of times that you’re there just to beat them up, that the guys outside in black are going to take them down and hurt them, stuff like that. You have to get them to trust you.”

When the subject of the call is inside a building, the negotiator usually tries to reach them on their phone. If there’s no phone available, the SWAT team tosses in a phone attached to a long cord. On major SWAT calls negotiators work in a vehicle where they’re not distracted by everything else going on at the scene.

But it’s not always that simple.

Ritchie said he’s had to negotiate by bullhorn when he couldn’t hear the person he was talking to. He’s talked to people in their cars, people in their homes and in one case, stood next to a man trying to jump off a highway overpass.

Sometimes, things settle down after a few minutes. Other situations, like the one at Greenwood Manor, can go on for hours.

of injury or death,” and he issued an injunction blocking federal money for the research.

Since then, the field’s fate has appeared to shift almost weekly as the lawsuit wends its way through the courts. Last week, the government won the right from an appeals court to continue financing the contested research while it appeals the ruling. But there is no telling how the appeals court will ultimately rule, and Lamberth could issue a revised injunction.

Many of the nation’s leading stem cell researchers do not know whether they will receive grants they won years earlier through the standard competition or whether new projects will even be considered. Junior scientists like Spence, poised to start their own laboratories, are caught in limbo. Senior scientists like Wells are torn between pursuing research they believe in and protecting students from staking their job prospects on projects they may never be able to complete.

The government can, however, support subsequent research on the cell lines created by that process.

Last year, two scientists filed the lawsuit, arguing that the distinction is a false one and that the guidelines on public financing violated the Dickey-Wicker amendment, first passed in 1996 and renewed by Congress every year since.

Moreover, they said, it siphons limited government resources from research on different types of stem cells, which they and other scientists who share a discomfort with embryonic stem cells view as ethically and scientifically superior. For all the hope vested in them, human embryonic stem cells have yet to yield tangible results for patients.

In his ruling, Lamberth agreed the guidelines violated the 1996 amendment and “threaten the very livelihood” of the plaintiffs.

Embryonic stem cell researchers who stand to lose their federal grants as a result argue that other types of stem cells do not have the same properties, and that all need to be studied regardless to determine which work best. They bristle at the intrusion of judges and politicians into decisions usually addressed by the peer review process, in which experts in a field comment on the merit of an idea and the best get financed.

Yet even some who believe there is a compelling scientific rationale for their research agree that the legal basis for federal financing may be weak.

“I was astonished that Congress hadn’t dealt with this,” said Dr. Stephen Duncan, a stem cell researcher at the Medical College of Wisconsin, who stands to lose several million dollars in federal grants depending on the

Productivity reduced The legal roller coaster is raising stress levels and reducing productivity, researchers say. Instead of tending to their test tubes, they find themselves guessing how each member of the Supreme Court might vote on the case. They are also watching the midterm congressional elections with new interest — and with some dismay, since many believe that new legislation will be required for their work to continue.

Under guidelines authorized by both the Bush and Obama administrations, work that leads directly to destroying the embryos cannot be federally financed.

Not as ‘action-packed’ as the movies Bend Police Officer Kecia Weaver, who serves as a school resource officer at Mountain View High School and a negotiator, said the actual work of negotiating is a little different than people might imagine. Though she said the tension can be very real — especially when there’s a hostage involved or a clear threat to officers — negotiating often means hours of quiet conversation with little progress.

“It’s not quite as action-packed as in the movies,” she said.

on the bearing’s surface.

The remodel began with workers separating the dish from its foundation, raising it and then dropping it down onto three temporary, 40-foot-tall support legs.

That allowed crews on narrow catwalks to take apart the bearing. Then they painstakingly poured flatter, more durable cement and created a new metallic surface for the oil.

NASA needs the antenna to be operational by Nov. 1, in time to communicate with an orbiter during its flyby of the comet Hartley 2, which will be between Earth and Mars.

“The accuracy we’re having to work with out here, that’s really the biggest challenge,” Hames said as he scaled a scaffolding while performing an inspection.

Because the dish’s radio signals are programmed to come from a fixed point on Earth, the repairs can’t alter the antenna’s size or location in any significant way.

Typically, one negotiator serves as the key contact during the entire incident while a second listens in on the conversation. The two exchange notes and ideas about what to do or say next.

But sometimes, when things aren’t working out between a negotiator and the person on the other end of the phone, someone else steps in.

Though many of the people they’re dealing with aren’t behaving rationally, negotiators said they’re usually able to get things under control by reminding them of the people in their lives who would miss them if they died — and remind them that they have the ability to end the situation before things get worse.

Since it was formed in the early 1980s, the tri-county SWAT team has never killed a person involved in a standoff.

But negotiation doesn’t always work. Ritchie recalled one particularly tough call in 2008, when a 17-year-old wanted on a warrant for drug possession shot at police and later shot himself as officers watched.

Cases like that, he said, are tough to deal with. But he said the satisfaction of knowing that he’s helped to resolve a dangerous situation without violence is well worth it.

“I got in this business to help people,” Ritchie said. “When you get someone to walk out of there and go to the hospital and then you sit down with your cup of coffee, waiting for the doctor to tell you how they are. ... That’s what this is about.”

dispensation of the case. “It’s like being a little pregnant. You’re either breaking the law or you’re not.”

Bush, who in 2001 limited federally financed researchers to working on roughly two dozen stem cell lines already in existence, twice vetoed legislation that would have explicitly expressed support for financing the contested research. No such legislation has been introduced under President Barack Obama, but the administration expanded the number of stem cell lines researchers could study.

Missed opportunity Advocates of the research now see this as a missed opportunity.

Efforts to rally congressional support since Lamberth’s ruling have failed to gain momentum among Democrats and moderate Republicans heading into the November elections.

For many, the most recent intrusion of politics into the vaunted scientific meritocracy came as a particular shock because the Obama administration’s new guidelines had only months earlier fallen into place.

“The painful thing is that we are being stopped at a time when the velocity of this field of research, thanks to the new administration, was finally going at maximum speed,” said Ali Brivanlou, a professor at Rockefeller University.

Over the past few weeks, embryonic stem cell scientists have sought alternative financing from private foundations, university administrations and state programs. But the National Institutes of Health, which has a $26 billion budget, is by far the source with the deepest pockets for academic scientists.

Group’s ‘incumbent-friendly’ policy leaves some gun-friendly Republicans frustrated

By Ben Pershing The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — The National Rifle Association has endorsed incumbent Democrats in several crucial congressional races this year, frustrating Republicans who believe the group is hurting its cause — and the party’s chances in November.

Although the NRA’s agenda usually aligns with that of the GOP, the powerful group also adheres to what it calls “an incumbent-friendly” policy: If an incumbent and a challenger candidate have equally strong records protecting gun rights, the incumbent gets the endorsement, regardless of party.

The result: Of the 20 most endangered incumbent House Democrats in the country — based on race ratings by The Washington Post’s “The Fix” — 14 have received the endorsement of the NRA’s Political Victory Fund.

The NRA’s bipartisan strategy has existed for several years. But the stakes appear higher this cycle, as control of the House is in play and Democrats’ red-state gains in 2006 and 2008 mean the party has a huge number of incumbents running for reelection in conservative-leaning districts.

In South Dakota, Rep. Stephanie Herseth Sandlin (D) got the NRA’s endorsement even though her opponent, Kristi Noem (R), has made her fondness for hunting a prominent part of her campaign.

Pelosi under fire Noem campaign manager Joshua Shields complained that regardless of Herseth Sandlin’s individual record on gun issues, she would ultimately support Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., “one of the most anti-gun speakers Congress has ever had,” “We made that argument to the NRA,” Shields said. “Obviously it didn’t work.”

At a gathering of volunteers for Robert Hurt’s (R) campaign in Charlottesville last week, a concerned Hurt supporter asked the candidate why the NRA nod went to his opponent, endangered freshman Rep. Tom Perriello, D-Va. Hurt admitted he was unhappy with the group’s decision.

“There is no more anti-Second Amendment vote than a vote for Nancy Pelosi for Speaker,” Hurt said.

Perriello and Herseth Sandlin both got “A” ratings from the NRA but Pelosi got an “F,” as did House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, D-Md., and House Majority Whip James Clyburn, D-S.C. Pushing those leaders out

of power could be seen as in the NRA’s interest. Yet the NRA has endorsed three of the four potentially vulnerable Democrats in Virginia, backing Reps. Richard Boucher and Glenn Nye as well as Perriello. (Rep. Gerald Connolly, who represents a moderate district based in Fairfax and Prince William counties, got an “F” from the group.)

Rep. Betsy Markey (D) secured the NRA nod in Colorado, as did Rep. Harry Teague (D) in neighboring New Mexico. Endangered Democratic Reps. Chet Edwards (Tex.), Allen Boyd (Fla.), Earl Pomeroy (N.D.), Debbie Halvorson (Ill.), Paul Kanjorski (Pa.) and John Boccieri (Ohio) also earned the group’s seal of approval.

Non-partisan NRA spokesman Andrew Arulanandam said that as a nonpartisan organization, his group simply does not take party affiliation — or votes for speaker of the House — into account.

In most of these contests, he noted, the seat ultimately will be held by a gun-rights supporter regardless of whether the incumbent or the challenger wins in November. “We are, frankly, in a very good and enviable position,” Arulanandam said.

Having clout with the majority party has been useful for the NRA. In early 2009, U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder made news by suggesting the Obama administration might try to reinstitute a ban on the sale of assault weapons. Backed by the NRA, several dozen House Democrats quickly sent Holder a letter emphasizing their opposition to such a move, and the idea never resurfaced.

“If it hadn’t been for those 60 House Democrats ... things would have turned out very differently,” Arulanandam said.

Overall, the NRA still has endorsed many more House Republican incumbents than Democrats, and the cash has followed.

The group’s political action committee has doled out $350,000 so far this cycle to Republicans and $170,000 to Democrats, according to the Center for Responsive Politics.

On the legislative front, Republican leaders have already learned this year that their agenda and that of the NRA don’t always match.

In June, Democrats revised a high-profile campaign finance bill — the Disclose Act — to carve out an exemption for the NRA after the gun-rights group protested against the legislation’s requirement that it disclose information about its donors.

Continued from A1 Only a year after the Obama administration lifted some of the limits imposed by President George W. Bush, a lawsuit challenging the use of public money for the research and a conservative shift in Congress could leave the field more sharply restricted than it has been since its inception a decade ago. At stake are about 1,300 jobs, as well as grants from the National Institutes of Health that this year total more than $200 million and support more than 200 projects.

The turn of events has introduced what researchers say is an unprecedented uncertainty to a realm of academic science normally governed by the laws of nature and the rules of peer review.

“We’re used people telling us, ‘That was a stupid idea, we’re not going to fund it,’ and we turn around and think of a better one,” said Dr. James Wells, who heads the laboratory where Spence has a postdoctoral position. “But there’s nothing we can do about this.”

The stem cells, which are thought to have curative potential for many diseases because they can be turned into any kind of tissue in the human body, can be obtained only by destroying a human embryo, which many Americans believe is the equivalent of a life.

In August, Chief Judge Royce Lamberth of the U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C., found that the Obama administration’s policy violates a law barring federal financing for “research in which a human embryo or embryos are destroyed, discarded or knowingly subjected to risk

Its most eye-catching element is its parabolic dish, which stretches nearly the length of a football field and weighs — struts and radio equipment included — nearly 2,000 tons.

Yet there are few larger antennas in the world, and those that have more size, said Hames, have less ability: Either they are fixed in the ground and unable to rotate fully, or they can’t both send and receive data.

C OV ER S T OR I ES

Budget Continued from A1 Dudley’s plan won’t merely cut the budget hole. In some areas, it could add to it. Dudley wants to cut the state’s capital gains tax from 11 percent to 3 percent for two years, then 5 percent. The change will cost the state more than $400 million over the next two years, but Dudley says it is necessary to spur business for the long term. He also hopes to provide scholarships to state universities and partial scholarships to private universities for all Oregon high school graduates who achieve certain grades, though the plan doesn’t yet have a price tag.

Kitzhaber, the former emergency room physician and governor, also wants to tackle state employee health care and retirement costs, though he is less specific about how much he wants to cut. Like Dudley, he plans to look at how the state crafts its budgets; he also wants to look at ways to consolidate government and curb costs. He wants cut prison sentences for some convicts to reduce prison spending.

Like Dudley, however, some of Kitzhaber’s ideas have a price tag rather than making cuts.

For instance, he wants to create jobs by issuing bonds to pay for weatherization projects, bonds that would be paid back through energy savings. The plan would cost an estimated $100,000 per job, though Kitzhaber has not said how much he would spend on it.

No specific cuts Neither Dudley nor Kitzhaber’s plans offer specific cuts that will close more than a fraction of the $3 billion hole in the state’s projected general fund budget. The general fund is that portion of the state budget that is most easily modified by the governor and lawmakers; it is based on personal and corporate income taxes rather than fees or federal funds.

Jody Wiser, of the group Tax Fairness Oregon, says that’s not surprising, since the more that candidates talk specifics, the easier it is for them to be attacked.

“I think that in the best of all worlds candidates would talk specific issues but that’s not the way candidates run for office,” she said.

Lunch has another reason for the lack of specifics: “You can put an audience to sleep very quickly trying to talk about the details of public finance.”

Besides the lack of details, Lunch said that neither candidate has fully grappled with the reality that nearly half the state’s general fund budget goes to fund

Waivers Continued from A1 At a time when the midterm elections are looming and Republicans have been vocal in campaigning against the law, reaction to the rollout has been closely watched.

To date, the administration has given about 30 insurers, employers and union plans, responsible for covering about 1 million people, one-year waivers on the new rules that phase out annual limits on coverage for limited-benefit plans, also known as “mini-meds.”

Applicants said their premiums would increase significantly, in some cases doubling or more.

These early exemptions offer the first signs of how the administration may tackle an even more difficult hurdle: the resistance from insurers and others against proposed regulations that will determine how much insurers spend on consumers’ health care versus administrative overhead, a major cornerstone of the law.

Child coverage Several leading insurers, including WellPoint, Aetna and Cigna, have also objected to new rules requiring them to cover even those children who are seriously ill, warning that they will stop selling new policies in some states because the rules do not protect them from having to cover too many sick children.

“The hardest part of health reform is always going to be the transition,” said Peter Harbage, a former state health official who is a policy consultant in Sacramento, Calif.

He predicts more insurers and employers will lean on the government to delay or weaken the new regulations.

“I think this pressure just increases until we get to 2014,” he said, referring to the year that the law will fully go into effect.

The waivers issued so far include the policies offered by

K-12 schools whose spending and employee contracts are under the control of locally elected school boards.

While Dudley says he’s open to the idea of statewide collective bargaining for teachers, he isn’t actively pursuing it. Kitzhaber, for his part, says he’ll try to benchmark local school district contracts to the state budget, but says statewide collective bargaining isn’t necessary.

By not more aggressively talking about the need to exert more control over school spending, “Both Dudley and Kitzhaber and the people who are speaking for them are to greater or lesser degrees blowing smoke on these issues,” Lunch said.

Negotiating position A second major question comes down to whether Dudley or Kitzhaber would be in a better position to negotiate for concessions from public employee unions to help balance the budget.

Dudley supporters make the argument that because his opponent is supported by public employee unions — for instance, the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees has given Kitzhaber $100,000 for his campaign — Kitzhaber is less likely to take a hard line with those same unions.

Kitzhaber, meanwhile, argues that because he has better relations with the unions than Dudley does, the Democrat is in a better position to work together to tackle the state’s budget woes.

He notes that he is the only candidate in the race who has had state employees strike against him, and notes that he signed legislation opposed by unions that changed the collective bargaining process.

Ed Hershey, a spokesman for the Service Employees International Union, which is supporting Kitzhaber, says his union won’t roll over for anybody. “No matter who is on the other side of the table ... we’re going to try to do the best we can.”

However, he said that his members would look more kindly on a governor who is not “singling them out” for disproportionate cuts, and “our members feel that notwithstanding his protestations, Dudley has put a target on our backs very unfairly and unwisely.”

History shows that taking on unions can bring a political price.

In 2008, SEIU gave John Kroger more than $300,000 in the Democratic primary for Attorney General, a move widely seen as payback to Kroger’s opponent, former Rep. Greg Macpherson, D-Lake Oswego, for shepherding through PERS reforms in the 2003 Legislature.

McDonald’s to its fast-food workers, typically capped at just a few thousand dollars, sold by a profitmaking company owned by Blue Cross and Blue Shield plans. As a result of the administration’s efforts, McDonald’s says it is “confident that we’ll continue to provide health care coverage for our 30,000 hourly restaurant employees.”

Aetna and Cigna have also received waivers to continue selling limited-benefit policies, according to the list released by the Department of Health and Human Services, as have small employers like Sanderson Plumbing Products and Guy Lee Manufacturing. HealthMarkets, which offers policies through MEGA Life and Health and other insurers, says it also plans to apply for a waiver for some of its plans.

Some seek more federal authority Some states, like Iowa and Maine, have already said they might seek additional authority from federal officials to exempt some insurers, at least for a time, because of the potential disruption if carriers leave the market over the new standards on medical spending.

“We have some very small carriers in the state,” said Susan Voss, the Iowa insurance commissioner, who said she favored letting state regulators decide whether some carriers should be given more leeway.

The state has already lost some carriers, including the Principal Financial Group, which announced its decision last week.

The struggle to stop insurers from dropping child-only coverage illustrates the limited power that the administration, and some states, may have to pressure companies to participate. While federal officials have tried to address the concerns by insurers that the rules allow parents to wait until their children are sick to sign up, some insurers have remained reluctant to commit to the market.

Despite that, Dudley supporters acknowledge that Kitzhaber’s argument makes a certain amount of sense.

Rep. Dennis Richardson, RCentral Point, said, “It’s his best argument, because there are times when a Democrat would be able to get something through that a Republican would have a difficult time getting through.”

Richardson nevertheless said he is supporting a Dudley administration, in part because Kitzhaber didn’t do enough to cut the budget in his earlier stint.

On the question of taxes, both candidates are similar in saying they won’t seek to repeal Measures 66 and 67, the corporate and personal income tax increases approved by voters in January. Both say they will seek to make changes to deal with the most business-unfriendly aspects of the tax hikes, and incorporate those changes with broader tax reform.

Tim Duy, a University of Oregon economist who tracks the Central Oregon economy, says the question he has of Dudley and Kitzhaber is “to what degree they’re willing to embrace as Governor (Ted) Kulongoski describes it, a ‘reset’ of the budget in its entirety.”

‘Reset Cabinet’ Duy refers to the report issued

by Kulongoski’s “Reset Cabinet” over the summer. It called for reorganizing state government and tackling employee compensation issues.

Dudley had said he supports many of the recommendations– particularly ones that involve restricting employee compensation and benefits — and would consider others, though not the sentencing modifications that Kulongoski says are crucial.

Kitzhaber also agrees with or echoes many of the recommendations — including long-term budgeting, consolidating government and saving money on prison costs by modifying the state’s sentencing laws. But he doesn’t agree with Kulongoski that statewide collective bargaining for teachers is crucial.

Duy says he hasn’t seen enough details from either candidate about how they will close the more than $3 billion budget hole.

“Within the context of that deficit, there is not much room, or any room, for new spending, new programs, or tax cuts,” he said. “I see this issue as critical, and I’m not sure either candidate has provided me with enough information. That’s what I’ve been looking for.”

Nick Budnick can be reached at or at nbudnick@bendbulletin. com.

While states like California can force their hands by passing legislation requiring any insurer who plans to sell policies in the new exchanges to also sell child-only policies, other states have little recourse other than to try to persuade insurers to stay.

Child-only policies In Washington state, for example, Regence BlueShield, a major insurer, has announced it plans to no longer sell child-only policies, and Mike Kreidler, the insurance commissioner, is trying to persuade the other major insurers to stay. He cannot force them, he said, under current state law.

“I couldn’t do anything other than use the bully pulpit,” said Kreidler, who was optimistic he had succeeded.

And politics surrounding the health care law may intrude. In Minnesota, Gov. Tim Pawlenty, a Republican and a potential 2012 presidential candidate who has long opposed the law, has become the target of accusations that he is stonewalling discussions over certain types of coverage. (He has already refused federal money for rate reviews and to set up the 2014 exchanges.)

“We are seriously disappointed that we appear to have hit a wall,” said Julie Brunner, executive director of the Minnesota Council of Health Plans, which represents the state’s insurers.

The insurers had been meeting with regulators to hash out the child-only coverage policies.

Pawlenty’s office, however, said it had no knowledge that negotiations over children’s insurance had been halted, and a spokesman, Bruce Gordon, denied that the governor had played any role in ending the talks. He said, however, the request by the insurers for a standardized period in which parents can buy coverage was unwarranted: “The insurance companies’ request for an exemption,” he said, “is yet another example of the failings of Obamacare.”

Obama awards fallen soldier

By Martha Quillin McClatchy-Tribune News Service

RALEIGH, N.C. — Staff Sgt. Robert Miller, the Fort Bragg, N.C.-based Special Forces soldier who posthumously received the Medal of Honor on Wednesday, really enjoyed going to Afghanistan.

Of the photos from Miller’s deployments to the country, the most telling may be the one of him in casual clothes, wearing an Afghan scarf and an Army cap, riding a villager’s white horse.

He is smiling, at ease in the saddle and at the intersection of two worlds.

But in August all that changed with a new financial analysis.

The cost increased to $73 million. The $1.7 million in revenue dropped to $700,000. And the green energy incentives all but disappeared.

This spurred Councilor Jeff Eager to ask in August for a re-evaluation of the cost of switching to an all-groundwater system to see if it would be cheaper for ratepayers, and to see if it would be feasible to accomplish under current water rights law. Bend gets about half of its annual water supply from groundwater.

A study released Friday by HDR Engineering Inc., which is the company the city hired to work on the Bridge Creek project, found that if the city wanted to make the switch to groundwater it would cost hundreds of millions of dollars more over a 50-year period due in large part to energy costs. It also found the groundwater option would

Miller didn’t live to see whether the country will achieve peace; he was killed Jan. 25, 2008. His actions that day helped save his fellow Green Berets and 15 Afghan National Army soldiers.

Getting water rights to pump more groundwater could also prove difficult for the city. According to a water rights attorney the city hired to study the issue, there are a number of tricky scenarios for doing so, including having to get some changes in state law.

“The bottom line is it is trading certainty ... for uncertainty, in the fact that the regulatory environment for getting new groundwater rights is very dicey,” said Rick Glick, of Davis, Wright, Tremaine LLP, of Portland. “Trying to get to an all-groundwater system is pretty speculative and involves a lot of risks.”

City Manager Eric King said during Wednesday’s presentation that he wants councilors to decide at a Nov. 3 meeting if they want to continue pursuing an upgrade to the Bridge Creek system or switch to all ground-

These options include picking a water treatment method to comply with federal clean-water mandates that require municipalities to treat for harmful bacteria and microorganisms like Cryptosporidium, and choosing whether to add a $13 million hydropower plant at the outset of the project.

Depending on which options councilors choose, Bend water customers could see rate increases of between 37.5 and 45.5 percent over the next five years.

King said a decision on the treatment option is scheduled for Nov. 17, and the choice of whether to move ahead with a hydropower plant would be Dec. 1.

Reports fault White House on oil spill response

By John M. Broder New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — The Obama administration failed to act upon or fully inform the public of its own worstcase estimates of the amount of oil gushing from the blown-out BP well, according to preliminary reports from the staff of the presidential commission investigating the accident.

The government underestimated how much oil was flowing into the Gulf of Mexico and how much was left after the well was capped in July, leading to a loss of faith in the government’s ability to handle the spill and a continuing breach between the federal authorities and state and local officials, the commission staff members found in a series of four reports issued Wednesday.

The White House responded to the assertions on Wednesday, saying it never concealed its most dire estimates of the spill and quickly threw everything the government had at the problem.

The four reports, from the staff of the National Commission on the BP Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill and Offshore Drilling, make clear that the president-appointed panel does not intend to spare the administration as it prepares a final report on the accident to be delivered to the White House early next year.

It has not yet completed its work on the causes of the well explosion or the efforts to contain the oil, but the tenor of Wednesday’s reports indicates that White House, Cabinet officers, Coast Guard commanders and senior government scientists will shoulder a fair amount of blame for the response to the accident.

Judge bars key U.S. witness in terror trial

By Benjamin Weiser New York Times News Service

NEW YORK — A federal judge has barred prosecutors from using a crucial witness in the first trial of a former Guantanamo detainee, reigniting a fierce debate over whether the government can successfully prosecute terrorist detainees in civilian court.

The trial of Ahmed Khalfan

Ghailani, who faces charges in the 1998 bombings of two U.S. embassies in East Africa, has been seen as a test of President Barack Obama’s goal of moving many other detainees, like Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, into federal court and, ultimately, closing Guantanamo.

In the months since Ghailani was brought to New York from

Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, Judge Lewis Kaplan of U.S. District Court in Manhattan has rejected defense requests to dismiss the case because of violations of Ghailani’s right to a speedy trial and because of accusations he was tortured.

But just as the trial was to begin Wednesday, Kaplan ruled that he would not allow the wit-

ness to testify. He noted that the government had acknowledged that it had identified and located the witness through interrogation of Ghailani when he was earlier held in a secret overseas jail run by the CIA. His lawyers have said he was tortured there.

Kaplan said he was “acutely aware of the perilous nature of the world in which we live.”

Hungarian towns begin cleanup of toxic red sludge

GUNMEN TORCH TANKER TRUCKS IN PAKISTAN

By Elisabeth Rosenthal New York Times News Service

New York Times News Service

Three scientists shared this year’s Nobel Prize in Chemistry for developing techniques to synthesize complex carbon molecules that have had an enormous impact on the manufacture of medicines and other products, the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences said Wednesday.

The winners are Richard Heck, 79, a retired University of Delaware professor now living in the Philippines; Ei-ichi Negishi, 75, a chemistry professor at Purdue University; and Akira Suzuki, 80, a professor at Hokkaido University in Sapporo, Japan.

In the 1960s and 1970s, the three scientists, who will split

KOLONTAR, Hungary — Just before he raced for refuge in the attic of his family’s home here Monday at lunchtime, Krisztian Holczer called his mother at her job at a school near here.

A wave of caustic red sludge had just poured in over the back fence and was descending rapidly over the backyard. Holczer, 34, escaped with burns on his feet from the dangerous muck.

The origin of the liquid was a nearby sludge reservoir holding the leftovers of the process that converts bauxite to aluminum. Just after noon Monday, a corner of the sludge reservoir broke.

Residents here are still waiting for officials to release their analysis of the sludge’s chemical content. A dangerous pollutant at best because of its corrosive nature, red mud from the aluminum production process can contain heavy metals and low-level radioactivity, ingredients that can cause health problems like cancer, and it in the long-term it can contaminate the environment.

The sludge poured into local streams and is moving downstream at about 1 mph. It is headed for the Raba River, which empties into the Danube. It has already killed all the life in the local rivers and streams but now threatens a broad international environmental disaster if high concentrations of the sludge get downstream.

So far the damage is limited to Hungary, which has not asked the European Union for assistance in responding to the catastrophe.

The broken wall of the sludge pond has been repaired, but the cleanup has just started. Hungary’s top investigative agency is looking into the spill. A case has been opened to consider possible criminal negligence.

Dozens of tanker trucks carrying fuel to Afghanistan for NATO troops were torched near Quetta in western Pakistan on Wednesday, the third major attack on supplies since Pakistan closed a border crossing to Afghanistan a week ago and the first at the only checkpoint that remained open.

At least one person was killed in the Quetta torchings after three carloads of gunmen fired at the tankers and then burned them, the police said.

“According to eyewitnesses and initial reports some terrorists came on vehicles a few minutes before morning prayer and started firing and then burned some of the tankers,” said Hamid Shakeel, the deputy inspector

general of the Quetta police.

About 40 tanker trucks were at the terminal, and about half were saved from the attack, Shakeel said.

Hours after the attack on the trucks at Quetta, Taliban militants claimed responsibility, according to reports on Pakistani television channels.

In a sign that the government was continuing to distance itself from the attacks, the police chief in Quetta, Malik Muhammad Iqbal, said it was not the responsibility of the government to provide security for the convoys.

In the past few days, senior police officers have said the safety of the trucks lay with the fleet owners who had signed contracts with NATO.

the $1.4 million prize, each independently made advances in using the metal palladium as a catalyst to link together carbon molecules into larger, more complicated structures.

Anti-cancer drug The academy highlighted discodermolide, a substance isolated from a marine sponge in the Caribbean that shows promise as an anti-cancer drug. It would be impossible to harvest large quantities of discodermolide.

But with the help of the palladium techniques, scientists are now able to make it from scratch, enough to start clinical testing.

The reactions are also used to

produce compounds used in fungicides, sunscreen and organic light-emitting diodes.

“They are used almost continually by every major pharmaceutical company on a daily basis, from drug discovery through manufacturing,” said Stephen L. Buchwald, a professor of chemistry at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. “They basically revolutionized the industry.”

The reactions are not only versatile, but “they also accomplish bond formations that are very difficult to do using any traditional methods,” Buchwald said.

Drugs, plastics and many other industrial chemicals consist of large carbon-based molecules.

However, getting one carbon

atom to bind to another is often not an easy task. Nearly a century ago, a French chemist named Victor Grignard found that coupling a magnesium atom to a carbon atom pushed additional electrons to the carbon atom, making it easier to bond with another carbon atom.

That method worked but not always perfectly, sometimes producing too many unwanted byproducts.

In 1968, Heck, working at Hercules Inc. in Wilmington, Del., reported new chemical reactions that used palladium as the key ingredient for shepherding carbons together, but drawbacks included the need for an expensive palladium salt.

B U S I N E SS IN BRIEF Local tourism sector up again in August Bend and unincorporated Deschutes County reported higher room-tax collections in August, according to a report Wednesday from Visit Bend, the city’s tourism-promotion agency.

For Bend, the 15.4 percent gain in collections over August 2009 was the ninth straight month of higher year-over-year numbers. The county’s 0.3 percent uptick in August was the third straight month of improvement. Since the fiscal year started July 1, collections are up 13.7 percent in Bend and 4 percent in the county.

“The impressive (year-overyear) increase in August (roomtax) collections was the result of multiple contributing factors,” Visit Bend President and CEO Doug La Placa wrote in an email. “In addition to rebounding occupancy with both leisure and business travelers, we are seeing a gradual strengthening of rate integrity across multiple lodging segments. This is very good news.”

Room-tax collections are considered a key measure of activity in the tourism industry.

Bend WineStyles closing doors Oct. 15 The owners of Bend’s WineStyles, which offered wine tastings and sold bottled wines, are closing the store Oct. 15 because the recession slowed business. Jerry and Peggy West moved the store to a small building on Northwest Galveston Avenue during the summer from a location near Central Oregon Community College in hopes of boosting sales.

“We’ve seen a lot of new business, just not enough to keep us open,” Jerry West said Wednesday.

The store will be open 2 p.m. to 8 p.m. Monday to Friday through Oct. 15. Wine Club members have until then to pick up outstanding wine from October or previous months.

FORECLOSURE

Notices of default up from last year Deschutes has 3,031 so far this year; there were 221 in all of ’06 crease over the first nine months of 2009, when 2,687 notices were filed.

But much of the year-to-date growth took place in the beginning of this year. Filings in January and February increased by about 55 percent and 33 percent, respectively, over the same months in 2009.

The number of notices filed in July decreased about 6 percent from filings in July 2009, and August default filings increased

By Tim Doran The Bulletin

For the first nine months of the year, the number of initial foreclosure notices filed in Deschutes County continued to outpace 2009, although filings have leveled off in recent months.

From January through September, 3,031 notices of default were filed with the Deschutes County Clerk’s Office, according to its electronic recordings system. That’s a 12.8 percent in-

less than 1 percent over the number filed in August 2009. However, default filings last month increased about 15 percent over September 2009.

Deschutes County property owners have suffered immensely with the collapse of the real estate market, driving foreclosures to record levels. In 2006, Deschutes County recorded 221 notices of default — for the entire year.

Bend startup secures $1.2M in investments Clear Catheter, the 2006 winner of the Bend Venture Conference, will use funding for clinical launch

By Ed Merriman The Bulletin

A Bend company’s innovative catheter designed not to clog after heart and lung surgery is a step closer to reaching hospitals and patients with $1.2 million in equity financing from the Oregon Angel Fund and other investors.

Ed Boyle, a Bend surgeon and CEO of Clear Catheter Systems, said the $1.2 million will support the clinical launch of the company’s PleuraFlow Active Tube Clearance System. The device, inserted in the thoracic cavity after heart and lung surgery to drain fluids and materials, has a mechanism to keep it from clogging.

Ruth Lindley, marketing manager at Economic Development for Central Oregon and the Bend Venture Conference, said Boyle, inventor of the technology and co-founder of Clear Catheter, won the conference in 2006 and, as has been the case with all conference winners, the prize money helped the company go on to win larger investments.

PALO ALTO, Calif. — Facebook on Wednesday introduced a feature that allows users to interact with small groups of people, like their family, high school friends or colleagues.

The move is an effort to address a longstanding problem: Facebook friends often span a broad range of relationships that include relatives, classmates, casual professional acquaintances or jogging partners — and not everyone wants all of them to see his or her information.

With the new feature, called Groups, Facebook hopes to encourage users to upload more photos, videos and other information to the site while giving them new ways to control who sees what.

WASHINGTON — Who would not like to settle with the Internal Revenue Service for pennies on the dollar?

In recent years, some 20,000 people have turned to American Tax Relief of Beverly Hills, Calif., to do just that after seeing the company’s advertisements on television, the Internet or in print, where actors portraying clients say the company reduced their back taxes to say, $2,000 from $24,000 or $40,000 from $200,000.

But the Federal Trade Commission said Wednesday that despite collecting $60 million to $100 million in upfront fees from often-desperate clients in recent years, American Tax Relief rarely, if ever, delivered on its promises.

It did, however, according to the FTC, deliver $30 million in customers’ funds to the accounts of the company’s owners or their relatives.

Oregon mostly unaffected by spate of foreclosure documentation reviews

By David Holley The Bulletin

As officials in other parts of the country investigate whether lenders made misstatements about home foreclosures, Oregon remains mostly unaffected because home loan foreclosures here are primarily filed outside the court system.

But there still could be errors in nonjudicial home foreclosure documentation in Oregon. If homeowners facing foreclosure find the errors — technical viola-

tions like the bank not publishing public notices on time or printing inaccurate numbers — lenders likely would have to fix the errors and restart the foreclosure process, thus giving homeowners more time to try to avoid default, local attorneys said.

Bend attorney Laura Cooper, who drafts loan documents and represents borrowers seeking loan modifications, said she hasn’t seen many homeowners make claims about technical violations by lenders.

But a rush could still come, she said.

“I’m wondering if it’s the other shoe that has yet to fall,” said Cooper, who is with Ball Janik LLP. News broke last month that large lenders, such as GMAC Mortgage and JPMorgan Chase, have begun halting foreclosures and evictions in 23 states where concerns have risen that the banks potentially filed faulty foreclosure documents in court.

At Hi-Grade Egg Farm in North Manchester, Ind., precautions are taken to ensure that hens and eggs are free of salmonella.

Tidy henhouses help thwart disease

Manufacturing

By William Neuman

Purchasing Managers’ Index readings of greater than 50 indicate growth in the manufacturing economy:

NORTH MANCHESTER, Ind. — The stuff doesn’t even smell that bad.

In Henhouse No.1 at the Hi-Grade Egg Farm here, the droppings from 381,000 chickens are carried off along a zig-zagging system of stacked conveyor belts with powerful fans blowing across them.

The excrement takes three days to travel more than a mile back and forth, and when it is finally deposited on a gray, 20-foot high mountain of manure, it has been thoroughly dried out, making it of little interest to the flies and rodents that can spread diseases like salmonella poisoning.

Controlling manure and keeping henhouses clean is essential to combating the toxic strain of salmonella that sickened thousands of people this year and prompted the recall of more than half a billion eggs produced by two companies in Iowa.

WASHINGTON — Liz Szalay said she was shocked when she saw her 14-year-old son’s phone bill. Because he didn’t have a $30 data plan as part of his Verizon Wireless contract, he’d run up charges of $2,000 over two months for downloading songs.

“I would never have allowed my son to accrue such charges, if I had known,” said Szalay, a secretary in Niles, Mich., who said she withdrew money from her 401(k) retirement plan to cover the expense. “What I did to prevent this from happening in the future was have his Internet access completely blocked by Verizon, but not before they made off

Owners of msnbc.com may alter FTC seeks to tighten name to distance it from channel rules for ‘green’ labeling

By Tanza Vega

By Brian Stelter New York Times News Service

NBC Universal and Microsoft, the parents of msnbc.com, are holding high-level talks about changing its name, an unusual and potentially risky endeavor for the third-most popular news website in the United States.

The two parents have not yet agreed on what to call the site.

But according to internal memorandums obtained by The New York Times this week, the parents have concluded that the brand known as msnbc.com, a strictly objective news site, is widely confused with MSNBC, the cable television channel that has taken a strongly liberal bent in recent years.

Charlie Tillinghast, the president of msnbc.com, wrote in one of the memos, “Both strategies

NBC in the past. “And those two brands, each strong in their respective areas, are increasingly standing for different things.”

Corporations change their names from time to time (Andersen Consulting became Accenture, Philip Morris became Altria, Blackwater became Xe) but giving up a Web address as popular as msnbc.com is highly unusual. It is akin to a business closing a bustling storefront and posting a sign that asks customers to visit its new location.

For a website, at least, the new location is only a click away.

“You can quickly redirect people who might be confused,” Heyward said.

Nonetheless, msnbc.com risks sacrificing years of brand loyalty by coining a new Web address.

“Both strategies are fine, but naming them the same thing is brand insanity.”

— From a memo written by Charlie Tillinghast, president of msnbc.com are fine, but naming them the same thing is brand insanity.”

The channel and website are already separate companies.

Under the current plan, the msnbc.com Web address would become a site exclusively for the cable channel, fulfilling the channel’s desire to have an independent site to promote its TV programs.

The existing news site, called the “blue site” internally, would move to a new and as-yet-undetermined Web address. There is a subsection on msnbc.com for the cable channel.

The websites under the msnbc.com umbrella are visited by almost 50 million Internet users each month, according to the measurement firm comScore.

Only two news brands, Yahoo and CNN.com, are bigger.

Andrew Heyward, a former CBS News president and an adviser to media companies on digital strategy, said the renaming idea had merit.

“It’s incredibly important in this media cacophony for brands to be consistent, for brands to stand for something,” said Heyward, who has advised

New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — Manufacturers of products that claim to be environmentally friendly will face tighter rules on how they are advertised to consumers under changes proposed Wednesday by the Federal Trade Commission.

The commission’s revised “Green Guides,” last updated in 1998, warn marketers against using labels that make broad claims that cannot be substantiated, like “eco-friendly.” Marketers must qualify their claims on the product packaging and limit them to a specific benefit, such as how much of the product is recycled.

“This is really about trying to cut through the confusion that consumers have when they are buying a product and that businesses have when they are sell-

ing a product,” said Jon Leibowitz, chairman of the commission.

The revisions come at a time when green marketing is on the rise. According to a new study by the TerraChoice Group, now part of the Underwriters Laboratories, the number of advertisements with green messages in mainstream magazines has risen since 1987, and peaked in 2008 at 10.4 percent. In 2009, the number of ads dropped to 9 percent.

But while the number of advertisements may have dipped, there has been a “proliferation” of eco-labeling, according to Scott McDougall, the president of TerraChoice. The new rules call on seals and certifications that connote general environmental claims to be more specific. A company would have to use a label like “Green Smart, Recyclable Certified” instead of just “Green Smart,” for example.

Farm Continued from B1 The Hi-Grade facility appeared very different from the descriptions released by federal investigators of the Iowa farms that produced the recalled eggs. Those farms, most of them owned by Austin DeCoster, one of the country’s largest egg producers, were portrayed as filthy and badly maintained, with manure piles teeming with maggots and overflowing from pits beneath henhouses.

Those are not the images the egg industry wants to stick in consumer’s minds — nor are they necessarily representative of most egg farms, federal regulators and industry officials agree.

The farms owned by Midwest Poultry Services were not associated with the recall, and a tour of one of them here in northern Indiana shows that much is being done in the egg industry to fight salmonella.

“We’ve had to completely change the way we look at things,” said Robert Krouse, the president of Midwest Poultry Services, who is also chairman of the United Egg Producers, an industry association. “Thirty years ago, farms had flies and farms had mice, everything was exposed to everything else. They just all happily lived together. You can’t work that way anymore.”

Controlling pests Today the hens on Krouse’s farms come from hatcheries certified to provide chicks free of salmonella. The young birds are vaccinated to create resistance to the bacteria. And then steps are taken to keep them from being exposed to it, primarily by controlling mice and flies that may carry salmonella or spread it around.

Eggs pass over a light as they are checked for defects at the HiGrade Egg Farm.

At the Hi-Grade Egg Farm, buildings are surrounded by a perimeter of stone and gravel, and the grass between buildings is cut short, to eliminate rodent habitats That is where the manure drying comes in, although it has other benefits, like preventing bad smells that can bother neighbors.

Many of the henhouses have been built or refurbished in recent years. Henhouse No. 1 is three years old. On the newer henhouses, the bottom 2 feet of the outer walls are concrete, to make it more difficult for mice to get inside. The buildings are surrounded by a perimeter of stone and gravel, and the grass between buildings is cut short, to eliminate rodent habitats.

The doors seal tightly, like doors in a modern home rather than old-style barn doors. Bait containers and traps are placed along the walls, and the number of trapped mice is tracked closely to spot any increase in activity.

Visitors are made to dress in head-to-toe white coveralls made of a disposable material — evoking images of workers on the sterile floor of a semiconductor factory, only here there are downy feathers in the air and the racket made by hundreds of thousands of birds in cages stacked to the ceiling.

The suits are meant to keep out germs that visitors may track in from off the farm. They may protect against salmonella, but they are mostly aimed at pathogens that can ravage flocks with diseases like avian influenza and could be tracked in from other farms or places like golf courses that are home to wild geese.

The long, gray, tin-sided henhouses, about two football fields long, have no windows. Sur-

rounded by fields of corn and soybeans, they hum softly with the sound of giant fans.

Not all modern But everything here is not as modern as the manure-drying contraption in Henhouse No. 1.

Nearby is a 12-year-old building, Henhouse No. 6.

Here more than 200,000 birds live on the house’s second floor, in cages stacked in an A-frame configuration, with an opening at the center that allows the droppings to fall into a cavernous groundfloor space below.

Krouse said that just a few years ago this design was considered the most advanced, and it is still prevalent throughout the egg industry, including the henhouses

at the Iowa farms involved in the recall.

At the farms in Iowa, inspectors found manure piles 8 feet deep in some barns, with the manure overflowing and bursting through doors. Escaped chickens were seen loose in the manure, and there were flies and maggots, according to the Food and Drug Administration inspection reports.

Once again, the picture was very different here. At the HiGrade barn, the manure was only about 6 inches deep, lying in five mounds, about 4 feet wide and 600 feet long, on the floor beneath the long arrays of cages. Krouse said the houses were cleaned out in early August.

Here, there was no suggestion of chocolate smells. The air had an ammonia bite, although it was far from overpowering. And there were flies, though not in large numbers (in part because of plenty of fly traps).

Gary Casper, a farm manager, said the key to controlling flies and rodents in this type of barn was to keep the manure dry.

Large fans around the room kept the air moving. And he said it was

crucial to watch for problems in the system that carries water to the birds in the cages above, and to stop leaks before they can soak the manure piles.

Many egg producers have been working for years to keep salmonella out of their flocks. Midwest Poultry began testing barns for salmonella in the late 1990s and has never found the toxic strain that can infect eggs.

In July, the FDA put in place a set of egg safety rules that all producers must follow, with an emphasis on testing and rodent control. For companies like Midwest, that has meant only minor adjustments. The company, which has a total of 6 million laying hens in three states, spent about $200,000 upgrading refrigeration equipment to meet stricter rules for cooling eggs to prevent the growth of bacteria.

Krouse sells eggs to the large supermarket chains Kroger and Wal-Mart, and he says that those stores now scrutinize their farm suppliers much as they would a food manufacturing company.

“They’re looking at us as just another part of their food production system,” he said.

Job offer may be good, but housing market isn’t

Tuning up your 401(k) for a comfier retirement

By Claudia Buck McClatchy-Tribune News Service

We want to be good retirement savers, we really do.

But many working Americans find the process intimidating, confusing or financially impossible.

Unfortunately, in an era where more of the retirement burden is falling on individuals than their employers, ramping up savings is essential.

Which helps explain why 401(k) plans, where contributions come out of your paycheck tax-free — and often are matched by the boss — are one of the most common retirement tools out there, research shows.

To get some tips on how to fine-tune your 401(k), we talked by phone with Mary Beth Franklin, senior editor of Kiplinger’s Personal Finance magazine, who spent weeks researching the topic for the magazine’s October issue.

Here’s some of her advice: Matthew Staver / New York Times News Service

Kimberly Smith, chief executive of Avenue West Corporate Housing and CorporateHousingByOwner.com, recently worked with an executive at who was asked to relocate from the East Coast to San Francisco. The executive was wary of selling his home and uneasy about buying something in his new city. So he rented out his former residence and rented a place in San Francisco before buying.

Owning a house has complicated calculus of a job change

By Paul Sullivan New York Times News Service

Given the high unemployment rate, a job offer would seem a sign of great fortune. But it’s not that simple if the offer means relocating.

While choosing between the prospect of exciting new work and uprooting a family has long been part of the calculus of a job change, the current economic slump is complicating the process.

Specifically, the problem is the house, that once-great sign of American success. It is not easy to sell these days and worth a lot less than it used to be.

The difficulty in selling a home has prompted many people to second-guess a move — and the job offer that precipitated it.

Is the job really worth it? What if the job goes away in a year?

What happens then?

Jim Carpenter, managing partner at J. Carpenter & Co., a recruiting firm based in Darien, Conn., said he recently had a candidate who would not move to another city for a job even though he was unemployed and had limited prospects where he was.

He said he had another candidate in the mid-Atlantic states who was hesitant about taking a job in New England.

“It’s hard for the husband to look his wife and children in the eye and say, ‘We’re making this move, but our house is going to be 30 percent smaller,’ ” said Carpenter, who has done highlevel searches for Unilever, Digitas and Black & Decker.

With unemployment still high, many Americans would love to have the luxury of a job offer.

Still, for people whose careers are still chugging along, the home can be a problem.

So how do you address it?

What options do you have in a bad housing market? The options vary from not great to pretty astonishing, given the economy.

Staying put There are risks to moving, but there are obviously financial risks to staying put, even if your current job is a good one. For one, that job could go away.

John Archer, managing director of Catalyst Advisors, which specializes in recruiting for health care companies, said the dislocations of the last three years have left many people opposed to employment elsewhere.

Their house, in a sense, is a good excuse to stay put. Beyond the costs of selling it in a bad market, there are the challenges of uprooting their families.

Yet Archer said ambitious executives are just as game as ever to make a move.

“If you look at the macro dis-

cussion, the American economy is slowing down,” he said. “If someone is blocked in their current role, they could be looking several years out to a promotion.

So looking at a new opportunity could be a motivator.”

And that may mean taking a loss on the house but being happy to have a new opportunity.

Renting Still, the insecurity in the housing and job markets has been a boon to people who want to rent before committing to a new area (or selling in an old one).

Kimberly Smith, chief executive of Avenue West Corporate Housing and CorporateHousingByOwner.com, said she recently worked with an executive at Kaiser Permanente who was asked to relocate from the East Coast to San Francisco. Even though it was a promotion, the executive was wary of selling his home and just as uneasy about buying something in his new city. So he rented in both places.

This is becoming more common, she said. In a recent study of the corporate rental industry conducted by her firm, only 56 percent of respondents considered themselves long-term investors. The remaining 44 percent are what Smith calls “accidental landlords,” pressed into the role by the realities of the housing market.

That was the case with Anna and Noah Crossley. In 2007, she bought a condominium in Nashville, and two years later the two got married. Then, Crossley, a classically trained trombonist, received a fellowship that required them to move to Kansas City, Kan. When they went to sell their condo, though, they found out that they literally could not: The developer of the project had never gotten proper Federal Housing Association approval, which meant that the buyer would have to come up with the entire price in cash because no bank would make a loan. They also failed to find a traditional renter. So, in the end, they listed it fully furnished on CorporateHousingByOwner.com.

Since June 2009, Crossley said there had been only one month in which the condo was not rented. “We clear our mortgage and utilities, so it’s wash,” she said.

“But we rent here, and it would be very tight if we had to pay that mortgage as well.”

Some of the people renting out their homes are out-of-work executives who are now living someplace less expensive. It is a difficult option, but it has been a way for some to keep their homes from dragging them under while they search for new jobs.

This is what Stuart Cave, who

lost his job in technology sales a year ago, has done.

“I hadn’t factored in a perfect storm of real estate and rental prices falling and being unemployed for a substantial amount of time,” said Cave, who owns a condo in Hoboken, N.J., with views of New York. “I did this as an interim step so I don’t have to blow through a whole lot more of my savings.”

For most of these people, renting out their homes is a shortterm solution. Smith, whose website charges $279 for a one-year listing, said the Kaiser executive decided he liked San Francisco and bought a home, moving his furniture out with him. He is still renting out his home on the East Coast, but that was more a reflection of the soft housing market than fears about his new job.

Negotiating The reality is companies that really want someone are still putting together perk-filled relocation packages. And for certain executives, those perks have actually become sweeter, which may seem counterintuitive given the high unemployment rate.

But for many companies, this is a good business decision.

“If you’re moving a guy who’s making $300,000 a year and has a $600,000 house, you can’t say, ‘You’ve got to sit on that,’ ” Carpenter said. “It’s an enormous distraction to the guy and his family that he can’t sell his house and buy a new one.”

So if you are one of those lucky people, what can you expect?

Well, if your $2 million house is down $600,000 in value, no company is going to cover that loss, but, recruiters said, you may be able to get your new employer to chip in $100,000.

For an even more fortunate few, companies may still buy your house. This practice is rare, given how many companies did this during the boom and got stuck holding houses that have plummeted in value. But Carpenter said he had seen companies use third-party relocation companies to buy the homes of senior executives.

The era of gaming the appraisal market has come to an end, though. Archer said there was a time when a company would ask you for three estimates and pay the lowest one. But executives got to pick the appraisers, and many of the values were inflated.

“All of that has dissipated,” Archer said.

There is a third option that is somewhere in between. Companies are willing to help executives cover the rent on an apartment in a new city, with the expectation that they will commute there during the week. This is certainly not ideal, but it is a job.

Where Buyers And Sellers Meet

Q:

Trying to save for retirement can be daunting. How do you know if you’re saving enough?

People have to rely on themselves for their future retirement. We’ve got the first of baby boomers turning 65 who still have pensions. But going forward, those who are middle-aged and younger will really be on their own. The onus of making sure you’re doing it right, that you’re setting aside enough for your retirement, falls more and more on the shoulders of workers themselves. Now is a great time to reassess your plan.

A:

Q:

What’s the magic formula for how much you should be socking away in your 401(k)?

You should be contributing about 15 percent of your gross salary a year; that’s combined between you and your employer. If you’re contributing 10 percent and your employer is matching 50 cents on the dollar, which is typical, that’s (an additional) 5 percent.

Always contribute at least enough to get your employer match or you are walking away from free money. Nobody can afford that. If you don’t take the 3 percent your boss was going to give you in 2010, it’s gone forever.

What are some quick fixes employees can make to fortify their retirement accounts?

“The onus of making sure you’re doing it right, that you’re setting aside enough for your retirement, falls more and more on the shoulders of workers themselves. Now is a great time to reassess your plan.”

— Mary Beth Franklin, senior editor of Kiplinger’s Personal Finance magazine $50,000, who contributes 6 percent of salary, has a 50 percent employer match (combined contribution: 9 percent of total salary) and plans to work full time until age 65. Assuming an average annual return of 6 percent, that person would have a nest egg at retirement of $420,000.

Here are three things you can do: • If you work two more years, until age 67, you could move that nest egg from $420,000 to $490,000.

• If you boost your contribution to 10 percent of salary, and your employer match is still half (in this case, 5 percent), you could boost that nest egg at retirement to $540,000.

• If you rejigger your portfolio to get an 8 percent return instead of 6 percent, you would have $560,000.

• If you do all three things, you would have a retirement nest egg of $850,000, more than twice where you started in the original scenario.

It shows that you can make some small changes that add up.

For somebody who’s 45 years old, you still have two decades. ... Maybe it’s a wake-up call that if you’re only saving 6 percent, frankly that’s not enough.

Q:

What if you’re in your 50s or 60s and don’t have two decades left to stash away enough for retirement?

Those are the ones hit hardest. You probably have to save more and may have to work longer to come up with a nest egg that you consider comfortable.

If you lost your job at 58 and can’t find a new job, a lot of these strategies aren’t going to help. We’re quite aware that for many people, it’s a dismal situation.

A:

BendSpineandPain.com (541) 647-1646

But those coming of age in the work force today — 20-somethings and those in their early 30s — will be in an environment where the only retirement plan available is a 401(k). This is the new normal for them. By the time they reach retirement age, they’ll be fine.

Q: A:

Why is it so hard for many people to get going on retirement savings?

Part of it’s inertia. Which is why this trend toward automatic enrollments and contributions since 2006 (endorsed by the Pension Protection Act that year) is so helpful. You can opt out, but you have to take an action to do so.

Don’t say no (if your employer automatically enrolls you in the company 401(k) ). It’s coming directly out of your paycheck, just like state taxes or Social Security. If you don’t see it, you’re not going to spend it.

We’re starting to see more companies (using) automatic escalation dates: On your anniversary date, they’ll bump you up 1 or 2 percent, unless you say no.

That’s a very powerful tool and a very painless way of increasing your retirement savings.

Q: A:

What if your company doesn’t offer a 401(k)

Q: A:

Some final thoughts?

plan?

Roughly 50 million Americans don’t have any retirement plan at work ... generally those working for businesses that are too small to make it financially viable to offer retirement plans.

But everyone who has a job can set up an IRA. You can have your paycheck make direct deposits to your IRA. There’s no excuse: If you don’t have a 401(k) at work, set up an IRA.

This extraordinary recession, which has focused people on how they’re spending money, is also focusing them on how they’re saving money. And a 401(k) is one of the best forms of saving money.

We’re all running out of excuses on why we aren’t saving for retirement. Twenty years from now, if you reach retirement without enough set aside, you won’t have a lot of people to blame but yourself.

Commit to boosting your 401(k) contribution 1 percent a year for the next five years. The sooner you start, the better off you’ll be.

Catheter

Boyle said in a news release.

Eric Rosenfeld, managing partner of Portland-based Capybara Ventures, announced last month that Capybara was about to invest in Clear Catheter. Herman confirmed Thursday that Rosenfeld is part of the Oregon Angel Fund investor group that put up the $1.2 million, but she said the fund is not releasing how much individual investors provided.

Under terms of the investment, Jim Fee of the Oregon Angel Fund has joined the Clear Catheter Systems board of directors, according to a news release.

“Jim’s extensive experience in building global medical device marketing and sales teams will be of tremendous value to us as we move forward with our commercialization efforts,” Boyle said.

Fee describes the PleuraFlow device as “a groundbreaking product” to help make heart and lung surgery safer and more cost-effective.

“We are excited to support the company in accelerating the adaptation of this innovative solution to a common problem faced in hospitals daily,” Fee said.

Clear Catheter Systems was co-founded by Andrew Firlik, a neurologist and venture capitalist partner in the Foundation Medical Partners.

The PleuraFlow is one of several proprietary medical devices the Bend-Based company has in its pipeline to prevent tube clogging. Others include systems for clearing urinary catheters and keeping feeding tubes clear as well as systems for standard surgical drains, according to the news release.

Continued from B1 Winning the conference helped Clear Catheter Systems put together its management team and license the PleuraFlow device, which also helped the company raise $600,000 for human trials, she said.

“What a win at BVC does is gives them credibility,” Lindley said.

Last October, Clear Catheter won a worldwide TechnoCollege Award established by the European Association of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery to recognize the most important technological breakthrough related to thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, according to the association.

Lindley said Clear Catheter is one of several high-tech companies in Bend generating economic momentum with their technological innovations.

Clear Catheter Systems is the second Bend company to land a big investment this year.

G5 Search Marketing, a search engine software development company, received $15 million in August from Boston-based Volition Capital to help G5 improve the mobile application and social networking aspect of its software used to market customers’ websites on search engines.

Kelly Herman, a media consultant for Clear Catheter Systems, said the Canadian and European governments authorized selling the PleuraFlow devices last spring, and the company is awaiting approval of its application with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

in court or out of court through counties — most defaulted loans are handled nonjudicially. Nonjudicial foreclosure is cheaper because lenders aren’t forced to file a lawsuit and hire an attorney. Instead, they can hire a trustee to file the necessary public notices and documentation with the county government, attorneys said. There’s also less paperwork.

Homeowners who face nonjudicial foreclosure don’t have a chance to regain their home like they do in the judicial process, said Chris Ambrose, an attorney in Bend. Judicial foreclosure gives people who lost a home to foreclosure a six-month post-sale grace period during which the

Continued from B1 Foreclosures are regulated by courts in those states — called judicial foreclosures — and employees of some of the nation’s largest lenders have given sworn testimony that they sometimes didn’t verify numbers on foreclosure documents they signed because of the sheer volume of cases they’re dealing with, according to news reports. Authorities are also investigating accusations of falsified signatures, according to those reports.

Though similar problems could potentially arise in Oregon — lenders can file foreclosures

Tax relief Continued from B1 The money was spent on a $3.4 million house in Beverly Hills; a garage full of cars, including a Ferrari, a Rolls-Royce, a Bentley, two Porsches and two MercedesBenzes; and other luxuries.

At the FTC’s request, a federal district court judge in Chicago froze the assets of American Tax Relief and its owners Sept.

24 and appointed a receiver to manage the company. The judge also approved a temporary restraining order prohibiting the company and its owners — Alexander Seung Hahn, who is on probation for an earlier marketing fraud case, and his wife, Joo Hyun Park, from making deceptive claims. The FTC does not have criminal jurisdiction or the ability to assess fines.

“Everyone has seen these commercials and wondered, ‘Can I really get away with paying

the IRS only a fraction of what I owe?’ ” said C. Steven Baker, director of the FTC’s Midwest regional office, during an interview. “The short answer is no.”

Of the 20,000 clients that the FTC says it believes American Tax Relief signed up, “we have not been able to find a single one” that the company helped to reduce a tax burden, said David Vladek, the chief of the commission’s division of consumer protection.

Hahn and Park could not be reached for comment. Charles Kreindler, a Los Angeles lawyer who represents the company, said in a statement that it intended to fight the FTC action, which “focused on a small handful of complaints and ignored the thousands of consumers who have been helped.”

Baker said that companies like American Tax Relief had created a widespread misimpression that anyone with an outstanding tax debt could settle with the IRS for less than they owed.

man for Verizon Wireless, declined to comment on the proposal.

The CTIA, the wireless industry association, has resisted the idea, saying it will cause “customer confusion and frustration” and that carriers already offer customers ways to control their usage. Subscribers can check their usage with online monitors or via text message.

“We have several measures in place that allow our customers

to monitor their usage and protect against overages — this is a proactive approach on Verizon’s part,” Verizon’s Smith said in an emailed statement. AT&T, the second- largest wireless carrier, and Sprint Nextel, the No. 3, deferred to the CTIA’s statement on billing practices.

One in six U.S. mobile-phone customers has faced unexpected monthly fees, according to a survey released in May by the FCC.

Default Continued from B1 But the number filed monthly has stayed above that figure for 22 straight months, according to Clerk’s Office records.

Exacerbating the problem: some of the state’s highest unemployment, which has made it difficult for homeowners to pay their mortgages, many of which financed properties purchased at prices far higher than they’re worth today.

The median sales price of single-family homes in Bend in August was almost 56 percent below the peak in May 2007, according to the latest data from Bend’s Bratton Appraisal Group.

Still, one foreclosure expert sees a trend.

“It’s flattening out,” said John Helmick, CEO of Eugene-based Gorilla Capital, which sells foreclosed properties bought at auction and operates in four states.

“I really think we’re seeing a leveling off.

“That’s the first step to going down. But before it goes down, it’s got to even out.”

Last year, 3,507 notices of default were filed in Deschutes County, according to the Clerk’s Office, an 82 percent increase over the number filed in 2008.

the title insurance company may turn around and sue the lender, Cooper said.

With nonjudicial foreclosure, however, if a lender sells a foreclosed home, the new buyer wouldn’t be required to give it back — even if there were errors in the foreclosure process, Ambrose said. Based on current law, the foreclosed homeowner may only be able to file a damages claim, he said.

“That’s why it is important, if someone does see an error, it’s important to step up and try to correct it,” he said.

David Holley can be reached at 541-383-0323 or at dholley@ bendbulletin.com.

A notice of default is the legal document that starts the foreclosure process. It’s generally filed by a lender after a borrower’s mortgage is 90 days delinquent.

Not all notices of default end up in foreclosure, and Deschutes County does not track actual foreclosures.

Helmick believes it will be a couple of years before default filings fall to 2007 levels. Deschutes County recorded 589 notices of default in 2007, Clerk’s Office records show.

Nationally, the number of properties in the U.S. receiving default notices in August dipped 1 percent from July and 30 percent from August 2009, according to RealtyTrac, a website that tracks foreclosure trends and properties.

One in every 381 housing units in the nation received a foreclosure filing in August, RealtyTrac reported.

For Oregon, the website reported 1 in 397 properties received foreclosure notices in August, the latest information posted. And in Crook, Deschutes and Jefferson counties, it listed ratios of 1 in 160, 175 and 169 housing units, respectively.

new owner can’t take posession.

That means the home would sit vacant and be marked as a real estate-owned property on the bank’s balance sheet.

The grace period gives the former homeowner a chance to come up with the money the new owner paid. If the original owner does do that, he or she can keep the home, Ambrose said.

That could potentially place the lender or its trustee — a third party hired to validate the foreclosure documents — in a vulnerable position if the new buyer has title insurance on the new home, Cooper said. If the new buyer has to return the home because of faulty foreclosure documents and files a title insurance claim,

Monsanto income drops by nearly half

By Andrew Pollack New York Times News Service

Executives of Monsanto told skittish investors Wednesday that earnings per share would grow 13 percent to 17 percent in the next fiscal year and that the company was on its way to fixing problems in its seed business that have undermined the confidence of Wall Street.

The remarks, in line with some previous assurances by company executives, were made as Monsanto reported that net income for the year that ended Aug. 31 had dropped by nearly half from a year earlier.

“I believe we’ve taken steps to allow our company to return to growth,” Hugh Grant, the chief executive, told analysts and investors on a conference call.

He said the seed business was going to offer “more products at more price points” to help regain the trust of farmers who have been put off by high seed prices and lowerthan-expected yields for some products.

Company shares, which have lost about 40 percent of their value this year, rose 5 percent in early trading Wednesday but then settled back down. At midday, shares were 2.6 percent higher.

Monsanto, the world’s biggest seed company and the leading developer of genetically engineered crops, said that net income for the year plunged to $1.1 billion from $2.1 billion a year earlier.

Geithner tries to stoke international pressure on China over currency

By Howard Schneider The Washington Post

The Obama administration is trying to escalate international pressure on China to change how it manages its currency, casting a global focus on what U.S. officials say has become a major risk to the economic recovery.

Calling the currency issue the “central existential challenge” facing the world economy, Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner acknowledged that the administration’s effort to settle the one-on-one spat through quiet diplomacy had failed and marked a new phase in the struggle with Chinese officials.

China’s policy of keeping the yuan cheap on world markets “sets off a dangerous dynamic” that encourages other countries to follow suit and risks touching off a destructive, tit-for-tat competition for jobs and trade, Geithner said in remarks at the Brookings Institution.

“It’s unfair to countries that were already running more flexible regimes and let their currencies appreciate,” he said.

In seeking to muster a broader coalition, Geithner issued an ultimatum to the International Monetary Fund: take a more aggressive stand on China’s currency or potentially lose U.S. backing for a series of efforts pending at the agency.

The IMF is debating changes in how it is governed to give greater

influence to developing nations in Asia and elsewhere, but Geithner said these steps should be tied to these countries, in particular China, allowing their currencies to more closely adhere to free-market levels.

“That’s the deal on the table,” Geithner said in his comments, delivered on the eve of the IMF’s annual meeting.

His remarks come as concerns grow that China’s currency management may prompt other countries to keep their currencies cheap so their exports remain relatively affordable. The Brazilian finance minister, for one, warned last month of a developing “currency war.”

Capital has been pouring into emerging markets such as Brazil, India and China, and analysts talk in terms of a strategic shift in world investment patterns. These analysts say money is moving away from the slower-growing developed countries and toward emerging markets that are producing better returns and have increasingly sound economic institutions and governments. It is a change some regard as a defining shift in the global economy.

No one, including Geithner, advocates a quick, dramatic rise in the renminbi of a sort that would disrupt China’s important manufacturing sector. But pressure for some significant change seems to be growing.

Measure A GOOD REASON would Board launches TO TAKE A RIDE allow online private survey on casino Mikalson REDMOND SCHOOL DISTRICT

Community asked for its input before superintendent’s 1-year contract is up

Voters to decide if state should permit gaming center to be built at old dog track near Portland

By Patrick Cliff The Bulletin

The Redmond School Board wants to know how you feel about the job Superintendent Shay Mikalson has done in his roughly four months on the job.

The board recently wrote and launched an anonymous threequestion survey on the district’s website.

If it seems quick to pass judgment on a superintendent, the board feels rushed by the timeline a search for a replacement Shay demands.

Mikalson Mikalson was hired in the spring with a one-year contract, and if the board decides to replace him, its members want to begin the search in November.

The board’s urgency dates back to its search for someone to replace Vickie Fleming, who resigned in January. Beginning the search in January is late and limited the pool of external candidates, the district said. The board rejected all 15 applications from external candidates and eventually hired Mikalson, then the principal at the district’s Obsidian Middle School.

A six-year push by two Lake Oswego men looking to build a privately owned casino in Multnomah County may be resolved by voters next month.

Measure 75 would authorize the state to allow the construction of a casino at an abandoned dog racing track in Wood Village, a small community east of Portland. The backers of the casino plan, Bruce Studer and Matt Rossman, have attempted to bring the issue before voters twice before. In 2006 they met legal challenges from opponents that slowed their signature-gathering efforts, and in 2008, they declined to collect signatures after filing a prospective initiative petition with the Secretary of State’s Office.

Casinos are banned under the Oregon Constitution, and a separate constitutional amendment would be required to allow the Wood Village project to move forward. The state’s existing nine casinos are operated by tribes on their tribal reservations, where state law does not apply.

If approved, the Multnomah casino would operate under a renewable 15-year lease from the state Lottery Commission, and would return 25 percent of gaming profits to the state. Estimates project the state’s share of profits during the casino’s first year of operation at between $83 million and $147 million.

ELECTION

Judge dismisses employees’ suit against Bend firm

Board may extend Mikalson’s contract Despite the call for input, the board is pleased with Mikalson and is considering extending his contract, according to board Chairman Jim Erickson.

The survey is a chance to reach out to the community, he said. “(The survey) isn’t there because we’re looking for some kind of problem,” Erickson said.

“It’s there so folks across the district … feel we are interested in their input. And we are interested in their input.”

Though districts often use anonymous surveys to check on issues, polling the public for a superintendent evaluation is uncommon, according to American Association of School Administrators spokeswoman Kitty Porterfield.

“It is always helpful for a school board to stay in touch with the community, to check that the work of the school board and staff are serving (the community’s) needs,” Porterfield said. “I think it’s a little more unusual to be quite so focused on one thing.”

3-question survey The survey includes three questions. The first asks for “strengths in Superintendent Mikalson’s leadership.” Next, the board queries the respondents for any “concerns” with Mikalson’s work.

Highland Elementary School fourth-grader Trinity Falls, 9, foreground, rides her bicycle across the Drake Park footbridge with her fellow students, who were all riding to school during the International Walk and Bike to School day, in Bend on Wednesday morning. More than 100 students from Highland Elementary took part in the event by riding their bicycles, scooters and skateboards to school. Once at the school, each participating student received a goody bag containing a water bottle, an energy bar and a variety of coupons, all donated by area businesses. Sixteen Central Oregon schools participated in the Walk and Bike to School Day, which is promoted locally by Commute Options. The next International Walk and Bike to School Day will be held on the first Wednesday of October 2011. Many of the 16 area schools that participated in this event invite students to take part in monthly Ride to School days. The last week of each June, Commute Options holds a Commuter Challenge. Businesses can win prizes and gift certificates by excelling in the challenge. To compete, employees of participating businesses walk, bike, carpool, telecommute or use public transportation. Commute Options offers year-round program incentives for regional businesses and schools that explore more environmentally friendly modes of transportation.

A federal judge has dismissed a lawsuit against a Bend customer service company filed by two employees claiming it violated an employment agreement.

Pamela Castaneda and Pamela McCauley filed suit earlier this year saying TRG Customer Solutions fired them from positions at its Bendbased call center in 2008 for disclosing confidential personnel information.

TRG representatives have declined to comment on the case. But court documents show the company argued the women had no employment contract and their firing was within the company’s discretion as an at-will employer, meaning it can fire employees at any time and without cause under Oregon law.

Airport’s solar power tracked on new website

By Patrick Cliff The Bulletin

On the Web

You can now monitor how much energy the Redmond Airport’s solar panels are generating by visiting a new website that tracks the panels’ performance.

Since Aug. 25, for instance, the panels have generated enough energy to run 48 60watt light bulbs for a year each.

The panels cost about $550,000. The airport only had

To check the solar panels’ performance, visit www.ci.redmond.or.us and click on “Airport Solar Panels Information.” to pay about $27,500 because federal and private grants covered the bulk of the total cost, according to airport Manager Carrie Novick.

The panels will provide up to 10 percent of the recently expanded airport’s power, Novick said. That, however, comes at a time when the airport has become more efficient, she said.

The $40 million expansion increased the terminal’s size from 23,000 square feet to 140,000 square feet, but the building’s power needs increase by about 21⁄2 times, Novick said.

“It’s clearly a much more efficient building,” Novick said.

Casino Continued from C1 Funds provided to the state would be widely distributed.

Fifty percent would be dedicated to K-12 classroom instruction, and 30 percent would be shared among counties and the state’s 10 largest cities in proportion to their populations. Wood Village would get a 4 percent share, the adjoining communities of Fairview, Gresham and Troutdale would each receive a 3 percent share, and Multnomah County and the state’s Problem Gambling Treatment Fund would receive 2 percent each.

Studer said the disbursement would provide both Deschutes County and the city of Bend approximately $974,000 in the first year of operation.

More than gambling While voter approval is key to the development of the casino, the complex would offer more than gambling. Plans released by the backers show indoor and outdoor water parks, restaurants, a hotel, a bowling alley and a 14screen movie theater.

Studer said formal opposition to the proposal — which has primarily come from tribes involved in gaming — is based on the assumption that there are only so many gambling dollars to go around. The Wood Village casino would draw players from around the country, he said, and while it could have an impact on Oregon Lottery gaming at nearby businesses with video lottery machines, gaming in the greater Portland area is nowhere close to the saturation point. Spirit Mountain Casino and Lodge is the nearest tribal casino, located about 60

miles away in Grand Ronde. “We’re going to be competition for them, they don’t want it, and I can’t say I blame them,� Studer said.

The tribes that operate on-reservation casinos in Oregon do not pay a share of their revenues to the state. In statements prepared for the Voters’ Pamphlet, the Spirit Mountain Community Fund, a philanthropic effort operated by The Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde, claims to have donated $50 million to charities around the state in the last 10 years, while the Oregon Tribal Gaming Alliance claims Oregon tribes have given almost $100 million to Oregon charities during the same period.

Not counting money paid out in prizes, 65 cents of every dollar taken in by Oregon Lottery video lottery machines goes to the state, with 22 cents going to the businesses that host the machines and the remaining 13 cents to administration and maintenance of the machines.

Bill Perry of the Oregon Restaurant and Lodging Association, which opposes the amendment, said his clients don’t oppose com-

an Stephanie Curtis. “We’ll compile responses and give them to the board,� Curtis said.

The board expects to decide on Mikalson’s future by its Oct. 13 meeting, according to Erickson. Board members, he said, do not want to wait so long that a search would be undermined.

County sheriff once imprisoned for embezzling more than a half million dollars from the county and a fire protection district between 1996 and 2000.

When the women were fired, TRG wrote them a letter saying the files they accessed were confidential and that they violated their agreement with the company by sharing the personnel information. “Both Ms. Castaneda and Ms. McCauley admitted to these facts,� the letter reads.

Last week, U.S. District Judge Michael Hogan issued a written decision that Castaneda and McCauley did not have a legitimate breach of contract claim.

Hogan found the confidentiality agreement was not an employment contract because it did not state a duration of employment or under what circumstances the women could be fired.

“We’re going to be competition for them, they don’t want it, and I can’t say I blame them.� — Bruce Studer, backer of casino plan petition, but that the proposed amendment would give the casino an unfair competitive edge.

Because it would be the only facility in the Portland area allowed to provide large-scale gambling, Perry said the casino operators would be able to use gambling proceeds to subsidize their theaters and bowling alleys and other features. “They’re going to undercut every form of entertainment,,� he said. “It’s going to be the only form of entertainment in town because nobody will be able to compete with them.�

‘It’s not fair’ Changing the law for the benefit of a single project is the wrong way to approach the question of expanded gambling in Oregon, Perry said. “If you want to have a discussion of whether we should repeal the casino ban, that’s a legitimate policy discussion, but all these guys have done is say, ‘We bought this property and we want a special exemption,’ � he said. “Just on its face, it’s not fair.�

Studer and Rossman said if they are successful, there’s nothing to prevent another group interested in developing a casino from putting its proposal before voters.

Construction of the casino would take about two years, cost at least $250 million, and employ up to 5,000 people, according to estimates by backers. The completed facility would employ more than 2,000 people, at an average of $35,000 per year.

One’s like a 7-Eleven and one’s like a Whole Foods.�

Tight money prevents some counties from prosecuting The Associated Press PORTLAND — Many Oregon prosecutors say tight money has forced them to stop prosecuting dozens of illegal acts as crimes.

The Oregonian reported that Multnomah County is treating many minor crimes — such as being caught with small amounts of drugs or minor shoplifting — as violations where a perpetrator can pay a fine and go free. District Attorney Mike Schrunk said he’s had no choice because his office doesn’t have the funds.

Some counties like Washington and Linn have public safety levies or timber money that allow prosecutors to pursue more cases. But other district attorneys say it’s difficult

to get voters to approve levies, and they have had to do more with less.

Marion County District Attorney Walt Beglau said his office hasn’t been prosecuting some misdemeanors at all — not even issuing a ticket — for as far back as 20 years. Among those crimes are minor vandalism, failing to appear in court to face misdemeanor charges and punching, slapping or spitting without causing injury, unless it involves domestic or sexual violence or an attack on police.

O Woman gets life after admitting guilt in murder, removal of fetus

By Nigel Duara The Associated Press

HILLSBORO — An Oregon woman obsessed with having a baby pleaded guilty Wednesday to the murder of a pregnant woman whose unborn child was cut from her abdomen after she was bludgeoned to death.

Korena Roberts, 29, was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. Her plea means she won’t face trial and a possible death sentence.

She was accused of beating 21year-old Heather Snively with a

collapsible police baton in June 2009 and using a straight razor to open Snively’s abdomen.

Roberts’ boyfriend found her in the tub with a lifeless infant that doctors determined had never drawn a breath. It was due two months later.

Body in crawl space Officers found Snively’s body in the crawl space of Roberts’ home.

For months before the killing, Roberts told neighbors she

was pregnant, going so far as to acquire a stroller, baby formula and parenting magazines.

A few weeks before the killing, Snively moved to Oregon from Maryland to be with her fiance. Detectives have said they believe Roberts and Snively met through an online classified service where both were looking for baby clothes.

Roberts had attempted to contact other pregnant women through Craigslist and by telephone before making the connection with Snively, District

Attorney Bob Hermann said in court Wednesday.

During a bail hearing last November, Roberts’ attorney said she had given birth to a stillborn child in 2007 and seemed obsessed with babies, repeatedly watching videos of births on YouTube, sewing baby clothes and telling people for about a year that she was pregnant.

Roberts’ boyfriend, Yan Shubin, told police he called 911 on June 5, 2009, after coming home and finding Roberts with a baby covered in blood.

UMPQUA NATIONAL FOREST

Logging in roadless area cut back Forest Service still going ahead with plan to reduce danger of wildfires

By Jeff Barnard The Associated Press

GRANTS PASS — The U.S. Forest Service announced Wednesday it is going ahead with plans to log inside a roadless area in Oregon to reduce the danger of wildfire, but over a much smaller area than originally planned.

The Umpqua National Forest announced it will publish Friday the final environmental impact statement on the D-Bug timber sale, which is designed to reduce wildfire danger around the Diamond Lake and Lemolo Lake resort areas.

Gang shooting follows gang funeral PORTLAND — Less than an hour after leaving a funeral service for the victim of a gang shootout, a young Portland man was wounded in the legs in what police believe was a drive-by gang shooting.

Members of the city’s gang squad in unmarked cars swarmed the streets around the Maranatha Church of God in northeast Portland during the service Tuesday afternoon, then scrambled to investigate the shooting 13 blocks away, The Oregonian reported.

The 19-year-old victim was not immediately identified.

Police said he is expected to recover after being hit once in each leg.

Police said they found the car from which the shots were fired. They said it may have been stolen a week earlier at gunpoint outside a strip club.

Man says he was shot while asleep on couch SALEM — Authorities say a man has reported he was shot while sleeping on his couch, and officers say a car stolen in California was connected to the crime.

The Marion County Sheriff’s Office said 30-year-old Ellis Bellack reported the shooting about 3:30 a.m. Wednesday.

He was treated for a gunshot wound in the arm and released from the hospital, The Salem Statesman Journal reported.

Deputies said he was shot from outside the house. They didn’t know exactly how many rounds were fired but they found a number of bullet holes in the house.

Following tips, deputies found a black 1996 Honda parked with its motor running about a mile from the house.

EPA hits coal plant with dirty air notice PORTLAND — U.S. Environmental Protection Agency says Oregon’s only coal-fired electrical generating plant has been violating clean air laws

for more than a decade.

The Oregonian newspaper reported the agency notified Portland General Electric last week that improvements at the Boardman plant in 1998 and 2004 increased pollution and should have triggered controls to limit sulfur dioxide.

The utility company says it doesn’t believe it violated the law.

The agency says the utility could be liable for civil penalties of up to $37,500 for each day the plant operated without proper pollution controls.

Rowdy partyers won’t play ball, Eugene says EUGENE — Eugene authorities say they’re not getting the cooperation they’d hoped for in toning down parties in a neighborhood near the University of Oregon where things got rowdy as the fall term began.

Two weekends ago, officers used tear gas to break up an alcohol-fueled party west of the campus.

City and university officials then went door to door to talk to renters about being good neighbors.

But on Friday and Saturday police dispersed crowds in the same area before things got out of hand.

About 60 citations were issued for underage drinkers or for carrying open containers of alcohol in public.

Toddler killed when pulled in to harvester IRRIGON — Morrow County, Oregon, sheriff’s deputies say a 2-year-old boy was killed when he was pulled into an onion-potato harvesting machine.

Undersheriff Steven Myren identified the victim of the Tuesday night incident as Aden Martine Marguia.

Myren says the boy’s father, 35-year-old Sergio Marguia, was testing a replacement belt on the harvesting machine at a storage facility near Irrigon when the boy got too close and was pulled into the machinery.

DMV move puts spotlight on need for change

I

n a state that purports to put as much value on keeping the public informed about its government as Oregon does, it’s hard to figure out why the Oregon Department of Administra-

tive Services opted for secrecy in relocating the Bend Department of Motor Vehicles office. “Because we could” is not a valid reason, and if the law allows it, the law should be changed.

The DMV office’s new space, in Brookswood Meadow Plaza on the southern edge of Bend, is ill-suited, it seems to us. Far away from most of the people who’ll use it, the location will serve the citizens of Bend poorly and violates at least the spirit of the city’s development code. Moreover, it flies in the face of a state law that urges consolidation of state office space and it is likely to do so for a minimum of 10 years.

It needn’t have been that way.

Had the city and neighbors known of the proposed new location, the latter would have protested loudly while the former may well have been able to help DAS find a more suitable location.

State Rep. Judy Stiegler says state law does not require public notification, however, at least not when the space in question is under 10,000 feet.

The new DMV office will be below that magic cutoff point.

It seems to us it’s time to change the law. Public agencies spend taxpayer dollars to lease space around Oregon, and they should keep the public informed of their plans. Officials may argue that early notification is likely to drive rental prices up, but the opposite is equally likely. In this case, with rental space going begging in the community, public notification might well have allowed another landlord with more suitably located and perhaps less expensive space to step forward.

That would have served nearly everyone better than the current new location will. Taxpayers would have saved some amount of money on a less expensive lease.

RiverRim neighbors probably wouldn’t now be upset with the new location. And Bend residents would have been able to find the DMV without having to resort to MapQuest.

What could be wrong with that?

Make deferral on SDCs permanent B uilders in the city of Bend currently have the right to delay paying systems development charges until a project is completed or nearly so. Now builders want the Bend Park & Recreation District to grant such delays, too, though district directors don’t seem particularly thrilled with the idea. We hope they reconsider. At the same time, we hope both they and the city make the deferrals the standard way of doing business.

City officials began the deferral program in 2008 as a sort of homegrown economic stimulus plan. Under it, builders could ask the city for a nine-month delay in paying city SDCs, which normally are shelled out when a building permit is issued. The delay ends either at nine months or when an occupancy permit is issued, whichever comes first. While it hasn’t sparked a turnaround of the housing market, it has eased the crunch at least a bit for some builders, who often must borrow the money to pay SDCs up front.

To date, the park district has not joined in the program, and if the discussion at a meeting earlier this week is an indication, directors aren’t particularly taken with the idea. They worry that, should the city forget to collect the park SDCs when it collects for the city, they will have no way of capturing the money once the build-

While the delay hasn’t sparked a turnaround of the housing market, it has eased the crunch at least a bit for some builders, who often must borrow the money to pay SDCs up front. ing is occupied. Surely, however, that is an easily solvable problem, and refusing to address it punishes wouldbe builders for errors beyond their control.

Meanwhile, the city should consider making the deferral permanent, and the park district should join it.

While the number of builders opting for the delay has been even smaller than the number of building permits issued in the last couple of years, the deferral makes sense. After all, the purpose of SDCs is to allow the city and the park district to recoup, at least in part, what must be spent on the expanded facilities the additional population will require. Until the new buildings are occupied no new demand is there, and forcing builders and ultimately home and business owners to pay even more than they otherwise would have to makes no sense.

My Nickel’s Worth Replace Wyden

cated lottery funding for clean water, healthy rivers, parks, outdoor education and local communities.

Having been a resident of Bend for 30 years, I have developed a strong appreciation for the natural environment, particularly here in Central Oregon.

Like me, thousands of people have migrated to Central Oregon to experience the outdoor life this area has to offer. Healthy watersheds are critical to maintaining outdoor recreation as a way of life. Fishermen, hikers, bicyclists, hunters, paddlers and other outdoor enthusiasts have all been touched by the natural beauty of rivers and lakes throughout the state.

There are many organizations devoted to watershed management, and I have the privilege of being the president of one such organization, the Upper Deschutes Watershed Council.

The UDWC works to restore local rivers and monitor long-term watershed health. In addition, the educational programs implemented by UDWC and its partners give students the tools to understand how watersheds work and instill a sense of place.

Measure 76 will renew a very successful funding program that has been in place for the last 12 years. I marvel at the accomplishments that have been achieved during this time, and I am excited to see the success that will continue if Measure 76 is passed.

I urge the public to support what has made Central Oregon such a spectacular place, the great outdoors. Please vote “yes” on Measure 76.

Rick Wright Bend

Sen. Wyden voted for the stimulus bill, which provided $787 billion and was supposed to stimulate the economy (and arguably has failed). The bill allows agencies to award contracts to employers that use foreign labor through the H-2B visa program on the condition that the employers prove they have been unable to find American labor.

The Bulletin recently reported that nearly $13 million from the stimulus package has gone to Oregon forest contractors that employ foreign workers. Other federal forest contractors who do not use foreign workers are rightfully outraged that they were outbid by contractors who are using foreign labor. At $12 to $22 per hour, these contractors say they can find plenty of local workers.

Recently, Wyden sent a letter of inquiry to the Department of Labor/Forest Service requesting justification of the use of stimulus funds to hire H-2B workers.

So, on the one hand Wyden votes for the stimulus package that specifically allowed for H-2B workers to be hired, and on the other hand he writes to the Forest Service asking why it is allowing something which he voted to approve.

There’s something wrong with this picture. Either Wyden didn’t read the bill or, if he did, he didn’t do his homework to decipher the impact of this legislation and is now trying to cover for it. In either case, it’s time for a change.

Vote for Jim Huffman in November.

The negative ads portraying eight bad years under John Kitzhaber are just a flat lie. If I recall, the economy was pretty good under Kitzhaber for

This November, Oregonians will vote on Measure 76. This ballot measure seeks to continue Oregon’s dedi-

six of those years. The last two were brought down by the national dot.com bust and drop in lumber demand. A couple of years later, the whole national economy started imploding. Kitzhaber helped initiate the Oregon Option, a co-op approach with the federal government to increase accountability and reduce bureaucracy related to a number of government services. In his first term, the state reduced the number of welfare cases dramatically, saving the state more than $200 million. He has always fought for children and education, growth management, farmland protection and urban growth boundaries, all issues pertaining to Oregon.

The guy has a lot of good ideas, and is willing to work in a bipartisan manner. To portray his two terms as a failure is negative campaigning at its finest. If you want a straight shooter, I’d vote for Kitzhaber. If I want tax advice, I’ll call Dudley.

Robert Smith La Pine

Keep Wyden Sen. Ron Wyden is an important member of the U.S. Senate. He has worked hard to reach the opinions and needs of his constituents, was the leader of a balanced, bipartisan group of senators to develop a well-researched health insurance plan during the Bush administration on into the present, and has worked to help overcome the many problems encountered by our veterans.

He is well-known for working “across the aisle,” has an excellent reputation in the Senate, and, for that reason, is recognized and respected by U.S. citizens across the country. His seniority under these circumstances has helped keep Oregon strong.

We need him in office.

Those who oppose ground zero mosque aren’t phobic

By Andrea Gorman Bulletin guest columnist

T

here have been two issues that have maintained a steady presence in media lately: the mosque at ground zero and burning the Quran.

In the newspaper recently, there was an article that piqued my interest in which I read, “Abdul Rauf, who has been the imam of a mosque 12 blocks from the World Trade Center since 1983 …” I did not include the rest of the letter because my point rests in this sentence — 12 blocks away from the World Trade Center. Allow me to think this through here.

There are approximately 1,462 mosques in the United States (answers. com, according to a 2007 survey done by the Muslim Group of America), and there are approximately 100 mosques in New York City (didyouknow.org), yet

those who oppose the mosque are intolerant, Islamophobic, hateful, ignorant, racist (the list goes on) for asking that the mosque not be built at ground zero?

Really? And from these bridge-building, peace-seeking individuals, we have threats here and abroad of violence if they are not able to build the mosque in this particular location?

I’m curious. How many Christian churches are in Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran?

What happens to those who are found carrying a Bible or wearing a cross in a region where Islam prevails? What if I were to propose the building of a Christian church in such a region — wouldn’t it be a bit nervy of me to impose my beliefs on them, in their backyard? Yet they threaten us when we voice our opposition to this mosque at ground zero, in our own country?

Unlike previous letters, I do not claim

IN MY VIEW to write from any point of view but my own. This issue stirs my emotions and leads to a frustration that there is so much more at play here than the right to build or protection of religious freedom.

These terms are masking what is truly at the center of this debate — is it insensitive to build the mosque in this particular site? Would building in the name of peace and tolerance be better served by moving the mosque to another location?

Are not peace and tolerance sacrificed by pushing ahead in such a bullish manner? And if this mosque truly is being built as a bridge to peace and to promote a greater knowledge of Islam, are not the threats of violence if the mosque is not built in this site a hindrance to this end?

It is unfortunate that as this mosque debate intensified, we had an individual threaten to burn the Quran on the anniversary of 9/11, bringing the issue of how we relate to the Muslim world and Islamic faith to an alarming crescendo.

While I do not support the burning of the Quran, it would be refreshing to see an outpouring of support when our beliefs and freedoms are compromised.

We live in a country where a crucifix can be placed in a jar of urine and called art. We can burn the American flag, and it is called freedom of speech. Illegal immigrants can protest our immigration policies and demand rights in our cities without fear — heck, they are supported by our own administration — yet reasonable opposition to the mosque at ground zero is somehow un-American, and the thought of burning the Quran causes an uprising of opposition the

likes of which I have not seen. Did the threats of violence against not only this pastor, but against the United States and our soldiers, make anyone wonder if our message of tolerance (appeasement and weakness would be more accurate terms) is effective in this world climate?

This should make us all take pause when we evaluate how to move forward in this arena.

We are foolhardy if we believe that showing tolerance in a climate where none is shown to us will win over our enemies, and we will sacrifice our freedom in the process.

If we continue to put tolerance and political correctness above all else when determining our priorities, we will protect the interests of all others at the expense of our own.

Norman Wisdom, British funnyman, dies at 95 New York Times News Service Norman Wisdom, one of Britain’s best-loved cinematic clowns, who also earned a Tony nomination on Broadway, died Monday on the Isle of Man. He was 95. He had continued performing until he was 90.

His family conf ir med the death to The Associated Press.

An elfin man of doleful mien, Wisdom was often Norman d e s c r i b e d Wisdom as the right- in 1965 ful heir to Charlie Chaplin. For six decades he reigned as one of Britain’s most celebrated comics, appearing in nearly 20 films and many television shows as well as in live performances.

His films shown in the United States include “Trouble in Store” (1953) and “Follow a Star” (1959). He was also featured in the Hollywood picture “The Night They Raided Minsky’s” (1968).

On Broadway Wisdom appeared in two Broadway shows, most notably in the musical “Walking Happy,” for which he received a Tony nomination.

The show, which ran for 161 performances in 1966 and 1967, had music by Jimmy Van Heusen and lyrics by Sammy Cahn.

He later starred in the comedy “Not Now, Darling,” which ran briefly in 1970.

Reviewing “Walking Happy” in The New York Times, Walter Kerr called Wisdom “a zany original with ruffled hair, rueful eyes and an altogether irresistible appeal.”

Aug. 2, 1944 - Oct. 2, 2010 Edwin Lavern Hill passed away on October 2, 2010, after suffering a stroke. He was born in Pendleton, Oregon, on August 2, 1944, to Wilbern Archi Hill and Gladys Mae (Casebeer) Hill. He moved from Heppner, Oregon, to Portland, Oregon, when he was six years old, but always called Heppner his home. He graduated from Sunset High School, in Portland, Oregon, in 1962.

While working for X-Ray, Inc., in Portland, Oregon, he met and married Rhoda G. Work on September 20, 1969.

In 1973, after the births of his children, he started Processor Chemical Services, Inc. a medical X-ray service and supplies company, in the family’s garage. The business grew steadily over the years, as did his reputation for quality, honesty, and fairness in the X-ray community throughout the state. The business was sold in 1998, allowing him to retire to Bend, Oregon, and also enjoy the family cabin in the Ochoco Mountains.

He had a lifelong love of the outdoors and hunting in Oregon. He made four hunting trips to Africa and several to Canada and Alaska. He enjoyed fixing anything and working in his woodshop where he was known for his handmade jewelry boxes. He also supported a number of organizations by participating in and donating to their causes.

He was a life member of the Rocky Mountain Elk foundation, and a member of Safari Club Int’l, Oregon Hunters’ Assoc. and B.P.O.E. (Elks). He supported the High Desert Museum, Oregon Public Broadcasting, The Nature Conservancy, Smithsonian Institution, Oregon Food Bank, Humane Society of Central Oregon and the AARP Foundation.

Ex-congresswomen McCarthy, 63 McClatchy-Tribune News Service KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Karen McCarthy, the former English teacher turned five-term member of Congress, died Tuesday afternoon of complications from Alzheimer’s disease.

She was 63. She was single and had no children.

McCarthy, a longtime resident of the Kansas City, Mo., Roanoke neighborhood, championed the environment, public education, women’s rights and an expansion of prescriptiondrug coverage under Medicare during a career in public office that spanned nearly three decades.

“It’s a human tragedy,” said David Westbrook, a McCarthy friend of 40 years. “It’s a tragic event in the life of an individual who really cared and really tried.”

Emmy-winning filmmaker Marshall Flaum dies at 85 McClatchy-Tribune News Service LOS ANGELES — Marshall Flaum, an award-winning producer, director and writer who specialized in documentaries, died Friday at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles of complications after hip surgery, his family said. He was 85.

Flaum won five Emmy Awards, had several more nominations and was twice nominated for an Academy Award, for the documentaries “The Yanks Are Coming (1963) and “Let My People Go: The Story of Israel” (1965).

Flaum wrote, directed and produced both documentaries.

“His flair for drama and entertainment made those documentaries stand out,” said his daughter, Erica, a film editor.

“His view of history was very cultural and not very dry. …

It was very important to him to have some kind of historical story. You always had the feeling of the times.”

William C. Patrick III, one of the chief scientists at the Army Biological Warfare Laboratories at Fort Detrick and who was responsible for overseeing the military’s top-secret weaponization of some of the world’s deadliest diseases, including anthrax and tularemia, died of bladder cancer Oct. 1 at Citizens Nursing Home in Frederick, Md. He was 84.

Patrick held five classified U.S. patents for the process of weaponizing anthrax.

He was chief of the development program at Fort Detrick in Frederick for much of the Cold War. In the 1960s, Patrick led the highly classified weaponization of tularemia, a disease he considered superior to anthrax as a biological agent because of its potency.

Under Patrick’s direction, scientists at Fort Detrick developed a tularemia agent that, if disseminated by airplane, could cause casualties and sickness over thousands of square miles, according to tests carried out by the U.S. government.

Some experts believed that the research showed biological weapons could be as devastating as a nuclear blast. In a 10,000square-mile range, the biological weapon had a 90 percent casualty rate and 50 percent fatality rate, capable of killing its hosts

In 1957 Flaum joined CBS and worked as a writer, story editor and associate producer on “The Twentieth Century.” He twice won Emmys for writing segments of the program.

Flaum moved to Hollywood in 1962 to work for David L. Wolper’s company, where his other credits included “The Battle of Britain” and “Hollywood: The Selznick Years.”

Work with Cousteau His work with Jacques Cousteau resulted in two Emmys as executive producer of “The Unsinkable Sea Otter” and “A Sound of Dolphins,” episodes of “The Undersea World of Jacques Cousteau.” Flaum also won an Emmy as executive producer of “Jane Goodall and the World of Animal Behavior: The Wild Dogs of Africa.”

“She’s one of the most vibrant political figures I’ve ever known,” said Alan Wheat, the Democrat who held Missouri’s 5th Congressional District seat before McCarthy. “It was more than her intense interest in issues and policy. It was her character and personality. She was truly interested in reaching out to all people and getting them involved in the political system.”

U.S. Rep. Emanuel Cleaver, who succeeded McCarthy in 2004, lauded her as a “consummate public servant from her days as a schoolteacher through the time she served in the Missouri General Assembly.”

Cleaver described her as “unashamedly liberal in her theology of politics. She never violated her belief in progressive causes.” That included what Cleaver called McCarthy’s principled stand against the Iraq war in 2002.

“She stood up and voted no at a time when voting no meant that you would get hate calls,” he said. “She never hesitated at all in doing that.”

Her career in Congress was marred by a much-publicized battle with alcoholism that led to staff turnover and caused her to seek treatment in 2003.

“I deeply regret my behavior and, as difficult as it is, recognize that my drinking has hurt those who I am closest to, those I love and work with,” McCarthy said at the time. “I have hit bottom.”

LOUISE A. GERLACH REDMOND – Louise A. Gerlach (Butterfield) 87, died of natural causes Saturday, October 2, 2010. She was born December 25, 1922 in Springfield, Massachusetts, the daughter of the late Clarence and Ruth Butterfield. She grew up in Massachusetts.

After leaving Massachusetts she went to Glenwood Springs, Colorado where she met Robert (Bob) Gerlach, her future husband while working in the U.S.O. during WWII. Louise married Bob, March 8, 1946 in McMinnville, Oregon. She lived in numerous locations in Oregon before moving to Rawlins, Wyoming in 1972. She moved back to Oregon in 1980.

Louise was very active in Daughters of Nile, Rebekahs, Amaranth, Eastern Star and Jobs Daughters. She loved performing vintage-style shows and singing gay ninety songs in Oregon and Wyoming. She was past president or chair of many community and county organizations.

Louise is survived by her four children, Donald of Federal Way, Washington, Richard of Anacortes, Washington, Gerald of Redmond, Oregon and Lisa of Attleboro, Massachusetts along with eight grandchildren, five great-grandchildren and numerous nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her husband Bob of 62 years, her two brothers James and Robert and her parents.

Dua ine J . “ Bud” Birk hofe r — August 1 2 , 1 9 2 4 - Octobe r 4 , 2 0 1 0 On August 12, 1924 Hans and Doris (Mathys) Birkhofer welcomed their son “Bud” into the world in Dow City, Iowa. In 1936 the Birkhofer family traveled to Ajlune, WA. Life in rural Western Washington was hard recovering from The Great Depression, but the work ethic that was instilled by his father and mother lasted Bud’s entire life. Bud was a 3-year letterman in baseball at Mossyrock High School. Bud was an avid baseball fan his entire life and was thrilled to have attended a professional baseball game in Seattle at the Kingdome.

In 1942 Bud and two friends from Mossyrock, WA enlisted in the United States Marine Corps. Bud was selected to be a part of the slowspeed radio communication battalion. He proudly served with the 3rd Radio Intelligence Platoon in the Marshall Islands intercepting Japanese code. This elite unit broke the code where Japanese Admiral Hirohito was travelling and, subsequently, Hirohito was shot down by American pilots. This has been reported to have been the beginning of the end of Japanese involvement in WWII. Bud and his wife, Gayle, attended many reunions of the 3rd Radio Intelligence Platoon.

Bud and Gayle were the proud parents of three children. John (Penny) of Boring, OR, Keith (Sheila) of Winlock, WA and Launi (Bruce) Cross of Redmond. Numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren gave Bud and Gayle a lot of joy in their lives. Bud is survived by two wonderful sisters and brothers-in-law, Marilyn and Bob Swanson, Alexandria, VA and Bernice and Warren Quinn, of Kenmore, WA. Bud followed his father’s love of animals and was a partner with Hans in several farms and dairies. Bud was an avid reader his entire life. He worked for Stocklin Supply Company as a salesman of animal health products for many years. In 1976 Bud was one of the original owners of Central Oregon Ranch Supply. After selling his ownership of CORS, he was a frequent visitor and advisor to the store’s owners.

Bud’s love of the livestock industry was evident as he attended most ranch auctions in Central Oregon and was a sought-after advisor to many ranchers. Bud’s quick wit and jokes will be missed by all who knew him. Bud always enjoyed being in attendance at the Red Bluff Bull and Gelding Sale and especially the sale at Thomas Angus Ranch. Bud and Bob Thomas attended grade school in Iowa together and were life-long friends.

A memorial service will be held at Redmond Memorial Chapel, 717 SW 6th Street, Redmond on Saturday, October 9th at 1:00 PM. In lieu of flowers please consider making a donation to the Marine Corps League or The Oregon Humane Society. Sign our guest book at www.redmondmemorial.com

Bear is killed after attempting third break-in

By Mark Freeman Medford Mail Tribune

CAVE JUNCTION — A burglarizing black bear that broke into an 85-year-old woman’s rural Cave Junction house twice over the weekend was trapped by state biologists and killed after it returned for a third time early Tuesday.

The 250-pound male bear twice clawed through Laverne Potter’s front door to get at her stash of rice and dried vegetables, ransacking the place in the process.

Potter confronted the bear late

Sunday night with a shotgun, but the bear hot-footed it through the broken door before any shots were fired.

Prepared to shoot “If I had to take him out, I would have,” Potter told the Medford Mail Tribune.

“I’m a vegetarian and I’ve never killed anything in my life,” Potter said. “(But) to have him break in and throw my stuff all over the place was scary.”

Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife biologist Mark Var-

gas said he later fatally shot the bear and took the carcass to a local butcher for processing.

“The bear, obviously, was not afraid of people and not afraid of going into houses,” Vargas said.

The meat will either be donated to an area food pantry that will give it to needy families or it will be given directly to a qualified family that covers the processing costs, which normally run about $100, Vargas said.

“I was sorry I couldn’t say just to turn it loose because it would have broken into someone else’s house,” Potter said. “I was afraid

my neighbor could be the next one.”

Potter said it was the first time she had experienced any bear problems during her 30 years of living along the East Fork of the Illinois River.

Clawed through door Her ordeal began abruptly Saturday night when the bear clawed through her stained-glass door and hauled away two 5-gallon buckets containing rice and dried split peas, Potter said.

“It was terrible,” she said. “It

just took its paws and slapped everything around.”

Potter had a friend board up the door and she played a radio loudly in the living room in hopes of keeping the burglarizing bruin away, she said. But all that did was keep her awake — and the animal sneaked in when she finally fell asleep, Potter said.

Potter was armed when the pair came face to face, but said she would have shot the bear only in defense.

Vargas on Monday placed the department’s large bear box trap, which is welded to a trailer,

in front of Potter’s porch. He baited it with dead fish.

Early Tuesday, the bear crept onto Potter’s porch and knocked over some furniture before backtracking to the trap, she said.

When it stepped far enough in, its paws triggered the gate to drop shut and end its adventures at the home.

The wildlife department has logged a threefold increase in bear damage reports this year in Jackson and Josephine counties, with bears breaking into houses in and around Ashland, Grants Pass, Williams and Eagle Point.

ith the bow of the boat pointed upriver, we drifted down. Wavelets, stirred by a light morning breeze, lapped at the boat. Steve Leonard kept his hand on the kicker motor in case we needed to change direction or correct the drift.

Across from Hood River, at the mouth of the White Salmon River, we drifted our eggs through a school of what must have been 1,000 salmon in a drift 400 yards long. They porpoised, they splashed, they pecked at our Pro-Cured baits.

Over the flat bottom of the Columbia, downstream from the tributary’s mouth, “hovering” is an easy tech-

nique to master. Drop the rig down, let the ball bounce on the bottom then crank it up one turn of the reel. On a 30-inch leader, the gob of salmon roe runs at an angle. Salmon — fall chinook and silvers — either move out of the way or mouth the bait and pick it back up again.

Up top, we tried to discern the difference between the peck of a peamouth and the pluck of a chinook. Perched in the bow, Marc Marcantonio set the hook and manhandled a 4-pound jack chinook to the boat.

PHOENIX — Oregon coach Chip Kelly liked the idea of moving the start of his team’s game against Stanford up three hours because fans in Eugene didn’t have to wait all day to see the game, then face a drive home late at night.

Other than that, Kelly could have cared less; he’ll play anytime.

“I have absolutely no say in the scheduling,” he said. “If you want to play at 3 a.m., I’ll play at 3 a.m. I don’t care.”

The Pac-10’s new leadership had a different perspective.

They were thrilled with the time change because of the exposure it gave the conference.

Had the game gone off at its original time of 8:15 p.m. PDT, it would have started after some East Coasters were already in bed and ended well after last call.

By moving kickoff up to 5:15 p.m., No. 9 Stanford at No. 4 Oregon became a prime-time showcase — one not involving those Trojans — that served as the capper to a day filled with premier games.

“A year ago when I started in this role, I was told by a lot of people that nationally people see USC and don’t see the depth of the conference after that,” Pac-10 Commissioner Larry Scott said.

“To have a year later, Stanford and Oregon be the game that has the most interest in a week with the Red River Rivalry, FloridaAlabama and other important games makes a big statement of where the Pac-10 is at, how it’s seen and the fact that we have two potential national contenders playing.”

Playoffs open with historic no-hitter by Phillies’ Halladay

By Tyler Kepner New York Times News Service

PHILADELPHIA — In a glass case at Citizens Bank Park is a bronze cast of Roy Halladay’s right hand. It holds an official baseball, stamped with a hologram, commemorating his perfect game in May. Halladay did not allow a runner to reach base that night, and the Philadelphia Phillies must have thought that was the greatest game he could pitch.

But considering the setting Wednesday, he found a way to top himself.

Halladay threw the second no-hitter in postseason history and the first since Don Larsen’s

perfect game for the New York Yankees in the 1956 World Series. Halladay thwarted the Cincinnati Reds, the top-scoring team in the National League this season, in a 4-0 victory in Game 1 of their division playoff series.

He allowed only one baserunner, on a walk to Jay Bruce with two outs in the fifth inning, and only a few hard-hit balls. He struck out eight, with exceptional command of his two-seam fastball, cutter, curveball and changeup. The game was bound to be memorable for Halladay, a decorated right-hander who had labored for 12 years with the also-ran Toronto Blue Jays until a trade to the Phillies in December.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — When David Reutimann intentionally wrecked Kyle Busch at Kansas Speedway, the payback for an earlier incident cost Busch significantly in the championship standings.

It also reignited a serious debate about how drivers who aren’t eligible for the title should race drivers who are competing in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship.

Contact between Busch and Reutimann caused Reutimann to wreck early in the race, and he sent Busch into the wall as retaliation about 100 laps later. Busch was running seventh at the time, finished 21st and dropped from third to seventh in the Chase standings.

He wondered after the race why Reutimann had to retaliate when Busch has so much on the line.

“For a guy that’s in the Chase, that’s racing for something? He’ll be here next year, he could have wrecked me in any of the first 26 races next year.

That would have been fine,” Busch said.

But Reutimann didn’t wait, arguing this week he didn’t have the luxury of being wrecked by Busch at a more convenient time.

“I had a dang good race car, and I didn’t have an opportunity to have a choice of when I wanted to get wrecked or how I wanted to get wrecked,” he said.

The conversation coming out of Kansas has centered around the many elements of Reutimann’s actions. Not too many people are hung up on whether or not he had the right to send a message to Busch.

Instead, it’s the day of delivery that’s receiving so much scrutiny.

NASCAR’s championship format puts just 12 drivers in contention for the title over the final 10 races of the season. Only the Chase drivers are racing against the full field, and everybody on the track has their own personal agendas.

There are drivers outside the Chase trying to win races, attract sponsors and line up jobs for next season. Every finishing position is critical, and nobody has a desire to pull over for a Chase driver.

Reutimann’s team owner argued this week that the drivers not racing for the championship have every reason to race as hard as possible.

“There are 43 drivers on the race track each Sunday, and there is no delineation between Chase participants and non-Chase participants when it comes to respect,” Michael Waltrip said.

The issue has been apparent since the opening race of the inaugural 2004 Chase. Robby Gordon and Greg Biffle got into a game of bumper-cars at New Hampshire, and Gordon’s intentional retaliation collected Chase drivers Tony Stewart and Jeremy Mayfield. Their championship chances were ruined before the halfway point of the first Chase race, and the debate over scoring championship contenders on their own points system has raged ever since.

NASCAR has never moved to adopt a separate points system, but non-Chase drivers have tried to be more careful in the years since.

“When I wasn’t in the Chase, I would just be aware of my surroundings,” said Biffle. “I was cognizant of racing Chase guys and really making sure I didn’t make a mistake and take one out. For personal reasons, I don’t want to be the guy who lost control of my car and hit a guy for a no reason.”

Four-time defending series champion Jimmie Johnson said he’s never really noticed drivers pulling over and letting him go by without incident just because he’s racing for a title.

“The whole theory on etiquette is you race people how they race you,” Johnson said. “I have to say that as a Chase driver, there are times where I wish guys would cut me some slack and recognize that I’m in the Chase. But then once I climb out of the car and really think about it, they’re trying to do everything they can as well, for their jobs and their sponsors.”

NASCAR has taken a more relaxed stand this season under the “Boys, have at it” policy of allowing drivers to self-police themselves. In years past, Reutimann likely would been have punished by NASCAR immediately after the accident.

But NASCAR took no action Sunday, and series director John Darby indicated there would be no serious follow-up.

“We’ll follow up at the track, but the thing that’s easy to get mixed up is there are 43 drivers on the racetrack, not just 12,” Darby said.

So Busch will move ahead to California this weekend knowing that if not for a dustup with Reutimann, he’d be in much better shape in the Chase. He’s probably blaming Reutimann for that, but Biffle said Chase drivers have their own responsibility to stay out of trouble. Had Busch not spun Reutimann, Biffle said, the payback never would have occurred.

“Be careful,” Biffle said. “Why even put yourself in a position to spin somebody with so much on the line?”

PREP ROUNDUP

Sisters girls soccer still perfect after Sky-Em win Bulletin staff report JUNCTION CITY — Opponents of undefeated Sisters are getting frustrated in their attempts to hand the Outlaws their first girls soccer defeat of the season.

In a match Wednesday marred by a fight in the second half, Sisters improved to 9-0 overall and 6-0 in the Sky-Em League with a 4-1 road victory at Junction City.

The Outlaws lit up the scoreboard just two minutes into the match on an unassisted goal by Natalie Ambrose.

In the 16th minute Haley Carlson scored on an assist from Jodie Reoch to put the visitors up 2-0. Four minutes later, Reoch scored a goal of her own to make the score 3-0.

Junction City responded with a goal on a penalty kick in the 25th minute to narrow Sisters’ lead to 3-1, but Kelly Cole finished the scoring eight minutes later, recording a goal on a corner kick delivered by Reoch.

After the scuffle in the second half, both sides were reduced to 10 players due to a red card being issued to each team. Sisters, which is averaging nearly six goals a game in its best start in school history, plays at home next Tuesday against Cottage Grove (5-1 Sky-Em).

Haylee Plotner scored both goals for the Hawks, just four minutes apart late in the first half. The first tally was in the 35th minute and the second goal came moments before the break from an assist by freshman Jocelyn Gerdau, who was playing in just her second varsity game. With only two substitutes, La Pine struggled in the second half as the Falcons scored twice to tie the game. The Hawks (0-4-2 Sky-Em, 0-6-2 overall) host Junction City on Monday.

Is a ‘world tour’ on the horizon for pros?

The Associated Press

NEWPORT, Wales — PGA Tour commissioner Tim Finchem expects some form of a “world tour” in golf in the future, even if he’s not around when it takes shape.

Europe already has one, with sanctioned tournaments on five continents.

The PGA Tour is going to Malaysia later this month, returns to Shanghai for a World Golf Championship and has Japan on its wish list.

The trick is to get everyone on the same page.

“I think that at some point in time, men’s professional golf will become integrated globally,” Finchem said.

“Now, what form that takes, whether it’s a total integration, whether it’s a FIFA-type, I don’t know. One question is how the competition is organized.

Another question is how the organizational structure behind it is organized. The first one is the key thing.”

One reason Finchem believes a world tour is inevitable is marketing and sponsorship, which includes the players. Phil Mickelson is sponsored

by Barclays, which promotes tournaments in Singapore, Scotland and New York. He is playing all of them this year.

The U.S. tour also has such multinational title sponsors as Deutsche Bank and BMW (both playoff events), Accenture and Zurich.

“I think it’s a matter of time,” Finchem said. “Golf generally is a splintered sport, multi-organizational at every level. But there’s movement.

The last 15 years there’s been a lot of movement. I would see that continuing to develop toward integration.”

Even though the Ryder Cup com-

• Former national champ gets lifetime ban: Former U.S. national pro cycling champion Kirk O’Bee has received a lifetime suspension for a second doping offense. O’Bee, who spent the 2000 season on Lance Armstrong’s U.S. Postal Service team, received his first suspension after testing positive for testosterone when he won the national pro criterium title in 2001. He also won national titles in 1997 and 2007. His lifetime ban stems from an arbitration decision released Wednesday that upheld a positive EPO test from May 2009. The arbitration panel also upheld evidence obtained by the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency that reflected O’Bee had actually committed a second doping offense, using EPO and human growth hormone, by 2005. All his records since 2005, including his 2007 national title, have been forfeited.

pleted a rugged stretch of golf — some players competed seven out of nine weeks, all big events — that doesn’t mean the season is over. The Fall Series still has four tournaments left, although the focus shifts overseas.

Ernie Els, Retief Goosen, Adam Scott, K.J. Choi and Ryan Palmer are among those planning to play the tour’s event in Malaysia, which is cosanctioned with the Asian Tour. Then it’s off to Shanghai for the HSBC Champions, Singapore and onward to Dubai for Europe, with Tiger Woods heading Down Under again to defend his title in the Australian Masters.

Integration can get tricky, for sure.

But it starts with cooperation.

The European Tour was the first outside tour to set up golf in Asia, and one year had more tournaments in China than in Scotland. Now comes the American tour looking to create tournaments and opportunities for its members.

Finchem says he and European tour chief George O’Grady have been “working together.”

“We’re not going to play a ton of tournaments over there, so it shouldn’t be a problem. George knows that,” Finchem said. “We’re talking to him constantly about what our plan would be. My guess is it will result in us doing even more together.”

Pavin donation U.S. Ryder Cup players and captains have donated more than $15 million, with $50,000 of their $200,000 charity allotment directed to the “Play Golf America” program at the college of their choice.

Oklahoma State received two such

donations, from Rickie Fowler and Hunter Mahan. Georgia Tech also had two players — Matt Kuchar and Stewart Cink — although Kuchar directed his to the Coastal College of Georgia.

Phil Mickelson, who had been splitting his contribution between Arizona State (his alma mater) and San Diego (where his brother is the golf coach), sent the entire donation to San Diego this year.

The biggest surprise came from the captain.

Corey Pavin, an All-American at UCLA, sent his money to Grambling State and Spellman College, two historically black colleges.

“We just thought it was something we wanted to do,” Pavin said during the matches. “We looked at several programs and decided on these two.

There was really no other reason.”

The PGA of America sponsors the PGA Minority Collegiate Golf Championship and has a program devoted to diversity. PGA chief executive Joe Steranka wasn’t surprised when he saw the list of donations, noting that Lisa Pavin is Vietnamese.

“Having a captain and his wife, a multicultural couple raising a beautiful daughter, the commitment they have made to historically minority colleges shows people they have their eyes wide open on the future of this country and this sport,” Steranka said.

Stat of the week Graeme McDowell won a major in June and won the decisive point in the Ryder Cup in October. The last player to do both in the same year was Tom Watson in 1983.

• Redskins’ Portis out 4-6 weeks: Clinton Portis will be out at least a month with a groin injury, putting the two-time Pro Bowl running back’s future in doubt once again. His injury leaves the Washington Redskins with a very inexperienced backfield, too. Coach Mike Shanahan said Wednesday that Portis has a third degree separation of the left groin, with the muscle separated off the bone. Portis will not require surgery, and the coach estimated a recovery time of four to six weeks.Portis was hurt in Sunday’s 17-12 win over the Philadelphia Eagles, when he was already starting to share more of the rushing load with Ryan Torain. Now the only two healthy tailbacks on the roster are Torain and Chad Simpson, who have combined for 70 carries in their NFL careers heading into this week’s game against the Green Bay Packers.

• Jets’ Revis: Moss put ‘foot on brake’ in Week 2: Darrelle Revis is ready to play, and you can bet Randy Moss hopes the Jets cornerback is out there defending him Monday night. Revis added another chapter to their personal rivalry Wednesday, saying Moss — now with the Minnesota Vikings — eased up in the second half of New England’s 28-14 loss to New York three weeks ago. “He came out full force, early in the game,” Revis said. “In the second half, you could tell he was kind of like putting his foot on the brake. But everybody knows that’s Randy: sometimes he plays 100 percent, sometimes he doesn’t.” Revis was limited at practice Wednesday, but hopes to play after missing the last 2½ games with a strained left hamstring. He was injured defending Moss on a touchdown catch late in the first half of the game in Week 2.

• NFL hits Browns safety Ward with fine: T.J. Ward’s “cheap shot” was costly.

For delivering a nasty blow to an opponent’s head, the NFL belted the Browns’ rookie safety in the wallet. Ward, who in just four games as a pro has developed a reputation as a ferocious tackler and fearless talker, was fined $15,000 Wednesday for his helmet-to-helmet hit on Cincinnati wide receiver Jordan Shipley during the fourth quarter of the Browns’ win on Sunday. Ward confirmed he was fined, but he would not divulge the amount. However, a person familiar with the situation told The Associated Press that the league assessed Ward the $15,000 penalty for ramming Shipley, who was knocked out briefly and sustained a concussion.

• Rookie QB Hall to start for Arizona: Arizona Cardinals coach Ken Whisenhunt has put his team’s struggling offense into the hands of undrafted rookie quarterback Max Hall. Whisenhunt announced after Wednesday’s practice that the former BYU standout would make his first NFL start Sunday when the Cardinals are home against the Super Bowl champion New Orleans Saints, replacing the erratic Derek Anderson. Hall is Arizona’s third starting quarterback since training camp opened. Anderson replaced Matt Leinart in the third preseason game. That led to Leinart’s release and left Hall as Anderson’s backup. The Cardinals are tied for the NFC West lead at 2-2 but have been outscored 82-17 in their two losses.

Golf • Ozaki elected to Hall of Fame: Jumbo Ozaki finally gets to celebrate in America when he is inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame. Ozaki, who won more than 100 tournaments and led the Japan Golf Tour money list 12 times, was elected Wednesday through the international ballot by receiving 50 percent of the vote from a panel of journalists, golf dignitaries and Hall of Fame members.

He will be inducted May 9 at the World Golf Village in St. Augustine, Fla., along with Ernie Els, Doug Ford, the late Jock Hutchison and former President George H.W. Bush. Ozaki had 111 victories, all in Japan except for the New Zealand PGA Championship in 1972. The knock on Ozaki was that he never won in the United States, although he had top 10s in the Masters and U.S. Open. He joins Isao Aoki as the only Japanese men in the Hall of Fame.

• No. 1 heir Westwood not playing PGA Tour in 2011: Lee Westwood says he will not be a regular on the PGA Tour in the U.S. next year, meaning Tiger Woods’ anticipated successor as the top-ranked golfer will be based on the European Tour. The 37-year-old Englishman said Wednesday that he will put his family first in 2011, remaining based in Europe despite the millions more he could earn competing for the FedEx Cup. His only trips to America next year will be for the majors, World Golf Championships and

occasional events that might help him prepare for those tournaments. “I’m not taking my card up in the States,” Westwood said as he prepared for today’s start of the Dunhill Links Championship.

Tennis • Garcia-Lopez reaches Japan quarters: Spain’s Guillermo Garcia-Lopez advanced to the quarterfinals of the Japan Open in Tokyo with a 7-6 (5), 6-4 win Wednesday over compatriot Feliciano Lopez. Garcia-Lopez saved four break points to defeat the sixth-seeded Lopez.

Radek Stepanek of the Czech Republic advanced with a 5-7, 7-6 (7) 4-1 win over Marco Chiudinelli, who retired with a lower back injury. Jarkko Nieminen of Finland defeated Daniel Gimeno-Traver 6-3, 76 (8). Dmitry Tursunov, ranked 432nd after thee left ankle surgeries, outlasted Richard Gasquet 7-6 (2), 1-6, 6-4 to make his first quarterfinal since July 2009. Topseeded Nadal and second-seeded Andy Roddick play their second-round matches today.

• Davydenko into China Open quarterfinals: Nikolay Davydenko cruised into the quarterfinals of the China Open in Beijing with a 7-5, 7-5 win over Marin Cilic of Croatia on Wednesday. The fourth-seeded Russian will face American John Isner, who beat Germany’s Philipp Kohlschreiber 7-6 (3), 3-6, 6-3. German qualifier Michael Berrer could not duplicate the play that helped him beat fifth-seeded Tomas Berdych in the previous round, falling to Gilles Simon of France 6-7 (6), 6-4, 7-6 (4). On the women’s side, Serbia’s Bojana Jovanovski, who previously knocked out third-seeded compatriot Jelena Jankovic, lost to Shahar Peer of Israel 6-1, 6-2.

Second-seeded Vera Zvonereva moved into the quarterfinals after defeating fellow Russian Maria Kirilenko 5-7, 6-4, 6-2.

• Venus Williams’ 2010 season over: Venus Williams is done for the season because of a left knee injury that has sidelined her for most of the second half of 2010. In a statement released to The Associated Press on Wednesday, the seventime Grand Slam champion said she is “very disappointed to announce that I will be unable to play” in the WTA Tour Championships at the end of October, and the Fed Cup final between the United States and Italy at San Diego in November. She is No. 3 in this week’s WTA rankings and went 38-7 with two titles in singles, and 18-1 with three titles in doubles this season, earning more than $2.5 million in prize money.

Basketball • Stern wants NBA preseason games in Brazil: David Stern is promising Brazilian fans they will soon have the chance to watch NBA players in action in their own country. The NBA commissioner said during a news conference Wednesday that preseason games will be held in Brazil “likely prior to the 2014 World Cup”, when Brazil will organize the showcase soccer tournament. “My backup position is prior to the Olympics,” Stern said of the 2016 Games in Rio de Janeiro. “We are well aware of the World Cup and Olympic expectations. And we expect to be following up on that opportunity relatively shortly.”

Stern was speaking ahead of a preseason game between the New York Knicks and the Minnesota Timberwolves in Paris. He also said the NBA would soon open an office in Brazil.

• GMs pick Lakers to repeat, Durant to win MVP: The Lakers’ Kobe Bryant will earn another ring and Oklahoma City’s Kevin Durant will seize the MVP award away from LeBron James. Those are among the opinions of NBA general managers who voted in the ninth annual NBA.com GM survey, which was released Wednesday. Los Angeles was picked by 63 percent of the respondents to repeat as champions, with 33 percent of the vote going to James and the new-look Miami Heat. Durant, the MVP of the U.S. victory in the world basketball championship, received 67 percent of the MVP vote.

James, the two-time MVP, was picked by only 4 percent. Top pick John Wall was the overwhelming favorite for Rookie of the Year, claiming 68 percent. The GMs picked Boston — a unanimous choice in the Atlantic — Chicago, Miami, the Lakers, Dallas and Oklahoma City as division champions.

• Wade: Leg is still sore: Dwyane Wade’s right hamstring remains sore, and the Miami Heat star guard says he’s undergoing a lengthy round of treatments to try and get back on the court as soon as possible. Wade pulled the hamstring 3:17 into the Heat preseason opener against Detroit on Tuesday night and did not return. He expects to miss up to two weeks, although no timetable for a return has been formally announced.

Track and field • Olympic 100m champ Fraser gets doping ban: World and Olympic 100meter champion Shelly-Ann Fraser of Jamaica was suspended for six months Wednesday after failing a doping test.

Fraser will be ineligible to compete until Jan. 7, the IAAF announced. She was provisionally suspended by the track and field governing body in June after she tested positive for the drug oxycodone at the Diamond League meet May 23 in Shanghai. Fraser had a dental procedure shortly before flying to China for the meet.

She said she took a painkiller because of a toothache. Fraser won gold in the 100 at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, leading a Jamaican sweep. She won the 2009 world title in Berlin.

New York Yankees’ Alex Rodriguez (13) congratulates Mark Teixeira after Teixeira hit a two-run home run during the seventh inning against the Minnesota Twins in Game 1 of an American League Division Series on Wednesday in Minneapolis.

Yankees rally to beat Twins in opener of division series The Associated Press MINNEAPOLIS — Be it the majestic views of Target Field or that dusty old hornets’ nest they called the Metrodome, it just doesn’t seem to matter.

The New York Yankees simply own the Minnesota Twins in the playoffs.

Mark Teixeira hit a tiebreaking, two-run homer in the seventh inning and the Yankees rallied to a 6-4 victory Wednesday night in Game 1 of the AL division series, the Twins’ 10th straight postseason loss.

“Game-winning homers,” Teixeira said with a wide smile on his face, “there’s nothing better.”

Yankees ace CC Sabathia labored, but reliever David Robertson fanned Jim Thome in a key spot and Mariano Rivera got the final four outs to close another win for the defending World Series champions. The Yankees rallied from a 3-0 deficit against Francisco Liriano and improved to 10-2 against the Twins in the playoffs since 2003.

Even a blown call by the umpires — shades of the last two postseasons — that went against the Yankees with two outs in the bottom of the ninth didn’t hurt them.

“It’s just bad luck for Minnesota. We just keep fighting. That’s a great team over there.

We’ve played a lot of tough games against them,” Teixeira said.

Michael Cuddyer homered, doubled and drove in two runs for the Twins, who played their first outdoor postseason game in Minnesota since 1970. They were hoping a move from the shabby Dome outdoors to gorgeous Target Field would turn their fortunes around, but it was more of the same against the mighty Yankees.

“We’ve got to get back up on our feet,” second baseman Orlando Hudson said. “There’s no need for us to sit here and talk about it. This isn’t the Twins’ curse versus the Yankees. It’s a new year. Hey, we’ve still got to battle.”

Game 2 is tonight. Carl Pavano will pitch for the Twins against Andy Pettitte.

Jorge Posada had two hits and an RBI and Curtis Granderson added a two-run triple for New York, which has never won a postseason series as a wild card.

Lincecum leads Giants into opener vs. Braves SAN FRANCISCO — Tim Lincecum emerged as the most dominant pitcher in the National League in his first two full major league seasons. Back-to-back NL Cy Young Awards.

Two All-Star selections, 526 strikeouts. All by the age of 25.

Now, the 16-game winner for the San Francisco Giants gets to take the ball for his most important start yet: Game 1 of the division series against the wild-card Atlanta Braves tonight at AT&T Park.

Postseason veteran Derek Lowe (16-12) will go for the Braves, who reached the playoffs with a dramatic 8-7 win over the Philadelphia Phillies on the season’s final day to extend manager Bobby Cox’s farewell season.

It took big performances by Lincecum’s supporting cast to get the Giants back to the playoffs after a six-year absence. They won the NL West despite enduring a career-worst five-start losing streak by their ace in August.

Lincecum came through over the final month and hopes to carry that momentum into his playoff debut.

San Francisco manager Bruce Bochy knows Cox will be prepared for anything and everything. The 69-year-old Cox is retiring after the season. He led Atlanta to 14 straight division titles but the Braves are back in the playoffs this season for the first time in five years.

“I revere this guy so much with what he’s done and what he’s accomplished,” Bochy said. “It’s going to be good to see him, I will say that. I do know that you have to play your best ball to beat this team. You’re not going to surprise Bobby. He’s a great manager.”

— The Associated Press Rivera recorded his 40th career postseason saves in 45 chances, but had to work a little harder than he planned. Replays showed Yankees right fielder Greg Golson — inserted that inning for defensive purposes — caught

Halladay Continued from D1 His 320 starts were the most of any active pitcher who had never appeared in the postseason.

“It’s hard to explain, but pitching a game like that, being able to win the game comes first,” Halladay said.

“That’s kind of your only focus until after it’s over with. I think once it ends, it’s a little bit surreal.”

As Halladay walked across the outfield to the bullpen before Wednesday’s game, his pitching coach, Rich Dubee, gave him a simple instruction.

“Go out there and try to be good,” Dubee said he told Halladay. “If you go out there and try to be good, you’ve got a chance to be great.”

Halladay, whose perfect game came on the road against the Florida Marlins on May 29, made the most of that chance. He is the fifth pitcher in major league history to throw two no-hitters in the same season, joining Johnny Vander Meer of the 1938 Cincinnati Reds, Allie Reynolds of the 1951 Yankees, Virgil Trucks of the 1952 Detroit Tigers and Nolan Ryan of the 1973 California Angels.

It also continued a trend in the majors this season. Halladay’s gem was the sixth no-hitter since opening day, one shy of the single-season major league record. Another potential no-hitter — a

The scoreboard shows Roy Halladay’s no-hitter after the Philadelphia Phillies defeated the Cincinnati Reds 4-0 on Wednesday. perfect game, in fact, by Detroit’s Armando Galarraga — was ruined by an umpire’s blown call with two out in the ninth inning.

Halladay, 33, went 21-10 this season, leading the league in innings and complete games, and he is expected to win his second Cy Young Award. He has been everything the Phillies could have

hoped for when they traded three prospects to Toronto to get him, then signed him to a contract extension that could be worth $80 million over four years.

It was something of a gamble for the Phillies, who simultaneously traded their best 2009 starter, Cliff Lee, to Seattle. Lee had beaten the Yankees twice last fall for the Phillies’ only World Se-

Delmon Young’s sinking liner for what should’ve been the last out.

But umpire Chris Guccione ruled that he trapped it and the call stood after the umpires huddled. Manager Joe Girardi came out to argue, but to no avail.

“They got together and talked about it. It’s not that they were out of position. It happens,” Girardi said.

In fact, the Yankees benefited against the Twins in the playoffs last year when a ball hit by Joe Mauer that clearly landed fair was called foul.

This time, the missed call brought Thome to the plate as the potential tying run. Rivera retired the slugger on a popup to third baseman Alex Rodriguez to end the game.

Lee matched a postseason best with 10 strikeouts while allowing five hits — one after the second inning. During one dominating stretch, he retired 16 of 17 batters before giving up Ben Zobrist’s homer in the seventh. The Rangers, in the playoffs for the first time in 11 years, stopped a nine-game postseason losing streak that began in 1996.

Nelson Cruz and Bengie Molina homered for the AL West champions. Darren O’Day and Darren Oliver pitched the eighth, and rookie Neftali Feliz worked out of a ninth-inning jam by striking out the final two batters. Price, a 19-game winner, allowed five runs and nine hits in 6 2⁄3 innings. He struck eight and, like Lee, walked none.

ries victories, but he was not signed to a long-term contract.

Lee has remained an ace — now with Texas, he beat Tampa Bay in his playoff start Wednesday — but Halladay lent a sense of desperation to the Phillies’ two-time reigning National League champions. If there was ever a danger of their growing complacent, his presence erased it.

“He has a lot of hunger,” Phillies Manager Charlie Manuel said Tuesday. “I think he’s starving all right. He’s intense and he wants it.”

Halladay ran alone on the warning track in a downpour before the Phillies’ workout on Tuesday, then played catch in the outfield with his fellow starter Cole Hamels. His work ethic and mental sharpness are revered around baseball, as is his wide repertory of weapons.

“He’s got probably four of the best pitches in baseball,” another Phillies starter, Roy Oswalt, said on Wednesday afternoon. “All four of his pitches he can throw at any time. When you can do that in the big leagues, you’re going to create a lot of havoc for the opposing hitter.”

Even, as Halladay showed Wednesday, when facing the team that led the National League in batting average, runs, hits and homers. The Reds battered him for 13 hits on June 30, but there were signs that Halladay could dominate them. He struck out 10 Reds that day without a walk and tossed nine shutout innings against them at home

two starts later.

“Any time you’re facing a good team, I think the more aggressive you can be early in the count — get yourself in pitcher’s counts — the more the numbers play into your favor,” said Halladay, who threw first-pitch strikes to 25 of his 28 hitters. “So that was definitely a priority.”

The Reds remain hitless in the postseason since Eddie Taubensee’s eighthinning single in Game 4 of the 1995 National League Championship Series, when they were swept by the Atlanta Braves. It was a dispiriting way to return to the playoffs.

“You’ve got to put that one behind us, figure we got beat by a great performance tonight,” Reds Manager Dusty Baker said. “The thing about it is, I don’t think he threw anything down the heart of the plate. Everything was on the corners and moving.”

The Reds’ hardest hit might have been a lineout to right by pitcher Travis Wood in the third inning. The final out came on a dribbler in front of the plate by Brandon Phillips, who raced to first as the ball nicked his bat in the dirt. Catcher Carlos Ruiz dropped to his knees to field it, threading a throw over Phillips’ left shoulder.

The out secured, Ruiz embraced a beaming Halladay as teammates mobbed them. The Phillies and Halladay hope it was only the first celebration of an already magical postseason.

Road doesn’t get easier for OSU Beavers to face third top-10 team of the season when they travel to No. 9 Arizona

By Anne M. Peterson The Associated Press

The Oregon State Beavers have faith their tough schedule will build a tougher team.

The Beavers, who it seems can hardly catch a scheduling break, visit No. 9 Arizona on Saturday. The undefeated Wildcats will join now-No. 5 TCU and now-No. 4 Boise State on the list of Oregon State’s early opponents.

Rather than shrug at their lot this season, the Beavers are welcoming it. “I think we’re all pretty grateful for the opportunity to play the type of opposition we’ve been playing,� linebacker Cameron Collins said. “We all came to Oregon State to play the best and Coach (Mike) Riley’s given us that opportunity.�

Next up Oregon State lost to the Horned • Oregon State Frogs and the Broncos but beat Louat Arizona isville earlier this season and is coming off a 31-28 victory over Arizona • When: State. Both of those wins came at ReSaturday, ser Stadium.

4 p.m.

The Beavers’ nonconference sched• TV: VS. ule was considered one of the most network difficult in the nation — indeed the most recent Sagarin computer ratings give Oregon State the hardest overall schedule among Football Bowl Subdivision teams.

Complicating matters is the fact that the Beavers play four of their first six games on the road (however they play four of their final six at home). Oregon State doesn’t return to Reser until Oct. 30 for homecoming against California.

The argument can be made that Oregon State’s schedule may have cost the team a couple of early wins, but could pay dividends as far as the conference standings at the end of the year. “I think it helps from a standpoint that we are not going to be scared of a moment, we are not going to shy away from a moment,� cornerback James Dockery said. “It is just another opportunity to know what we need to do, to get the job done.�

Arizona (4-0, 1-0 Pac-10) opened the season with routs over Toledo and the Citadel, followed by an impressive win over then-No. 9 Iowa and a gritty victory over California. Last weekend the Wildcats had a bye.

Oregon State running back Jacquizz Rodgers breaks through a pack of Arizona State defenders for a 74yard touchdown run during the second half of Saturday’s game in Corvallis. The Beavers, who won that game 31-28, take on Arizona this weekend.

The most glaring problem that Arizona presents for the Beavers is their defense, ranked second in the nation behind Boise State. The Wildcats are only allowing opponents an average of 230 yards total offense, 101 on the ground and 129 in the air. They surrendered just 29 rushing yards to Iowa.

That will be a challenge for Oregon State’s steadily improving offense. Against Arizona State, Beavers quarterback Ryan Katz played his best game, completing 19 of 29 passes for 260 yards and two touchdowns.

And he did it without go-to receiver James Rodgers, who sat out after sustaining a concussion the week before at Boise State.

Katz, making his fourth career start, connected with nine different receivers, including sophomores

Markus Wheaton and Jordan Bishop, who each had four catches. “I think we’re just getting more comfortable,� Katz said. “I think the receivers are seeing the open lanes and the line’s giving me time to throw the ball. We’ve corrected a lot of things since the TCU game. I think we’re just scratching the surface.�

Rodgers, who was practicing at full speed Tuesday, will return against the Wildcats.

While the Beavers have won four straight in Tucson, Arizona beat them 37-32 in Corvallis last season. It was quarterback Nick Foles’ first start and he made the most of it, passing for 254 yards and three touchdowns. This season, Foles has thrown for 1,089 yards with six TDs and a conference-best 74.5 completion percentage.

State, WSU boosters demanded that the administration hire Moos as the replacement. Moos negotiated a deal with Oregon regarding the noncompete and then went to work.

What WSU boosters were looking for is the same kind of magic Moos worked in Eugene, where the athletic department budget grew from $18 million in his first year to more than $40 million by 2007.

The donor base increased from 4,900 to 12,290. Moos oversaw the expansion of facilities, and the Ducks enjoyed their longest stretches of success in football and men’s basketball.

Moos believes a similar renaissance can occur at Washington State, where the $30 million athletic budget is the smallest in the Pac-10 and football attendance has dropped after two dreadful seasons. “I want our fans to realize this can be done at WSU,� Moos said.

Much depends on the fortunes of the football team, which was 3-22 in coach Paul Wulff’s first two seasons and continues to struggle this year.

Moos remains confident that Wulff can turn the program around. “Paul and his assistants are doing a great job of recruiting,� Moos said. “I’m seeing signs of improvement.� “We changed the culture and mindset at Oregon, but it wasn’t done overnight,�

River Continued from D1 At the end of the next drift, the tip of the 8-foot6-inch Lamiglas shuddered and I set the hook. This fish stayed close to the bottom and when I managed to gain a little line, a trail of bubbles broke to the surface. A sturgeon. A minute later, the 40-inch dinosaur was alongside to be admired and released.

Around us, the fish continued to jump, but Leonard, owner of Steve’s Guided Adventures in Washougal, Wash., was antsy. He pointed the bow toward the dock and we pulled the boat out and made the run east up Interstate 84 to the next boat launch.

We joined a flotilla of 33 other boats over a deep flat off the mouth of the Klickitat and dropped our baits. Thom Doulder drifted a gob of roe into the yawning maw of a 10-pound male.

Around us, rods flexed, salmon churned the surface to froth and nets plunged to draw thrashing chinook from the depths of the big river.

As soon as Doulder’s fish was in the box, I rebaited and Leonard leaned over and sprayed his magic juice on the fresh gob of eggs. Over the side it went. With a bounce, it touched down. Thirty seconds later, it was my turn to pin a salmon, this one a 12-pound male.

When the sun was well up in the sky, we switched rods and put down K14 Kwikfish in chrome and chartreuse, wrapped with chunks of herring or tuna.

At the bottom of the run, we would let the weight down to touch bottom, then troll back upstream.

Up in the front of the boat taking pictures, I missed it when a salmon smashed my Kwikfish.

Greg Gulbrandsen battled the fish for a minute, but it threw the hooks. A few minutes later, Greg’s rod

Moos said. “Our design there is similar to what we are doing here.�

That includes trying to make lots more money from football. Moos believes the football program should generate twothirds to three-quarters of an athletic department’s budget. At WSU, football generates about one-third, $10 million, because of low attendance and lower television income than other Pac-10 teams, Moos said. “We’ve got to increase our revenue streams and have money in the bank,�

Moos said.

A major step in that direction could come at this week’s meetings of Pac-10 athletic directors. The meetings are part of the effort to hammer out new revenue sharing agreements as the league adds Colorado and Utah in 2011. In the Pac10, participants in a televised game split 64 percent of the money, with the other eight teams getting just 4.5 percent each.

Moos favors sharing the TV revenue equally, as many other conferences do, which could be worth $10 million to $15 million a year for the Cougars.

Moos noted that Washington State has gone to the Rose Bowl twice since 1997, but failed to keep the momentum going. “We have to work to get back there and then have a plan in place to sustain it,� Moos said. “The latter is tougher than the former.�

Continued from D1 The late-night game has been an issue for the Pac-10 for years.

The benefit of playing after dark is the lack of competition for TV viewers; Saturdays are full of clutter and there aren’t as many options for people to switch off to at night in the West.

The downside is that some viewers on the East Coast might not be willing to stay up into the wee hours to watch a college football game. That hurts the TV ratings and the Pac-10’s recognition in the East, which could be damaging in poll and award voting.

So as the conference heads into a new era, transforming into the Pac-12 with the addition of Colorado and Utah, its leaders are looking into ways of getting its marquee games in front of bigger audiences.

The Pac-10’s TV deals expire at the end of the current school year and the starting times for football games are sure to be part of the conversation. “There’s a lot of factors that go into making sure we’re visible nationally for our biggest games, but it’s something that’s a high priority, something that we’re spending a lot of time on and something that will receive a very high priority as we’re looking at our future broadcast agreements,� Scott said.

The Pac-10 has already had its share of big games on the latenight slate this season.

On Sept 18, a matchup between No. 9 Iowa and No. 24 Arizona, one of the biggest games in the Wildcats’ recent history, started at 7:30 local time. UCLA’s upset win over No. 23 Houston started at the same time and the Wake Forest-Stanford game was even later, kicking off at 8:15.

Arizona, looking to cement its status among the nation’s elite programs, played another late game against Cal the next week, the same time as an entertaining shootout between Oregon and Arizona State.

Stanford-Oregon was on the latenight list, too, until ABC and ESPN asked if it could be moved up.

For the Pac-10, it was a no-brainer. Its long-standing dilemma has been fighting eastern perception that the conference is USC and a bunch of teams nobody cares about.

This game was a rare chance to show that’s no longer the case. “The Pac-10 is arguably among the top two conferences in terms of our stature and the performance of our teams and I want to make sure voters across the country are seeing the best of the Pac-10,� Scott said. “That’s one of the reasons we allowed Stanford and Oregon to be moved earlier.�

Now it’s time to see if it’s feasible to have more big games played earlier.

It might be tough at the two Arizona schools, at least for the first two months of the season. Temperatures reach into the 90s even for night games in September and October; the temperature at kickoff at Oregon-Arizona State was a blistering 100.

Other schools have more flexibility and appear willing to shift things around if it means more recognition for their programs and the conference. “We’re a conference that I think has traditionally been seen as pretty conservative and rigid when it comes to when we’ll play, but I think that’s changing,� Scott said. “Not only is there new leadership in the conference office, but throughout the conference and a different mindset is evolving. I think you’ll see a fresh look at where we play.�

At camp, we showed off six bright salmon from the big river then sealed the steaks with a VacUpack sealer while peach cobbler baked to a golden brown in a row of Camp Chef Dutch ovens.

Every September, we gather at Peach Beach on the north bank of the Columbia to fish, to eat and to celebrate the fall salmon run. Smallmouth bass, sturgeon, salmon and steelhead are all in the river and on the menu.

The variety takes the competition out of camp.

Every day someone gets skunked, and someone else lights it up. As hunting seasons get under way, some of the best fishing of the year takes place in October on the Columbia.

D6 Thursday, October 7, 2010 • THE BULLETIN

Strong hatches reported on Ochoco Creek Here is the weekly fishing report for selected areas in and around Central Oregon, provided by fisheries biologists for the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife:

CENTRAL ZONE ANTELOPE FLAT RESERVOIR: Angler reports indicate a high growth rate and excellent catch rates. The reservoir has been stocked twice with catchable rainbow trout and will be stocked again in October.

BIG LAVA LAKE: The resort is reporting excellent fishing with the cooler temperatures. The fish that are landed have been in great condition ranging in size from 11 to 16 inches.

CLEAR LAKE: No recent report, but the lake was stocked with keepers and brood rainbow trout and holdovers from the previous season should still be available. Lake levels may be getting low due to irrigation withdrawals.

CRANE PRAIRIE RESERVOIR: Anglers are still catching large fish from two to seven pounds.

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.

CROOKED RIVER BELOW BOWMAN DAM: Fishing is excellent with flows around 175 cfs. A sample of redband trout and mountain whitefish are tagged with a numbered floy tag protruding from the back. Anglers who catch a trout or whitefish with a floy tag are encouraged

FISHING REPORT to release the fish after recording the tag number, fish length and location caught. Anglers can send the information to ODFW at (541) 447-5111 ext. 24 or michael.r.harrington@state.or.us.

Aug. 4 due to high blue green algae levels. Fishing is not prohibited, but the advisory states that proper precautions should be taken to avoid water contact.

In addition,

CULTUS LAKE: There have been reports of nice rainbow trout and lake trout being harvested from Cultus over the last several weeks.

HOSMER LAKE: Fishing for Atlantic salmon has been good early and late in the day.

Fishing on Hosmer is restricted to fly fishing with barbless hooks.

DESCHUTES RIVER (Mouth to the Northern Boundary of the Warm Springs Reservation): The Deschutes River is open to angling for steelhead and trout from the mouth upstream to Pelton Dam (river mile 100). Fishing for summer steelhead has been good and water temperatures have cooled. Summer steelhead are spread out in good numbers from the Columbia upstream to the Locked Gate above Maupin. Good numbers of steelhead have been passing over Sherars Falls. Expect good fishing throughout October in these areas. As November approaches, more steelhead will show up between the Locked Gate and Warm Springs.

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.

DESCHUTES RIVER (Lake Billy Chinook to Bend): No recent reports but there should be good fishing for rainbow and brown trout. Rainbow trout average 10 to 16-inches, while brown trout up to 26-inches are available. Anglers will find better access downstream of Lower Bridge.

LAKE BILLY CHINOOK: Anglers are continuing to catch kokanee in the Metolius arm.

LAURANCE LAKE: Trout fishing for native rainbow and cutthroat along with lots of stocked rainbows should make summer fishing in Laurance good. It’s a great place to fly fish out of a small boat or personal watercraft.

Twin is a great lake to take young kids to as there is a good beach shoreline and it is protected from the wind. Look to catch rainbow trout in the 8 inch to 13 inch size range.

OCHOCO 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 restricts fishing to artificial flies and lures only; two trout per day and 8-inch minimum length.

OCHOCO RESERVOIR: Although there are no recent reports, anglers are reporting improved fishing over past years. Opportunities for 12- to 20-inch rainbow trout should improve with the warmer weather.

PRINEVILLE RESERVOIR: Anglers continue to report good fishing and have reported catching larger trout than in recent years. Anglers should consult the 2010 Sport Fishing Regulations (page 63) for maximum length requirements and bag limits for both largemouth and smallmouth bass.

LITTLE LAVA LAKE: Fish will be moving to shore as temperatures cool; however, right now fish are still in deeper waters.

PRINEVILLE YOUTH FISHING POND: Anglers should continue to target bass, but the pond will be stocked heavily with trout in the next two weeks.

LOST LAKE: No recent report but Lost Lake has been stocked with rainbow and there are a few resident brown trout.

Lost is a great place to troll around in a small boat or fish from the bank.

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.

FALL RIVER: Trout fishing has been good with several different hatches of insects throughout the day.

METOLIUS RIVER: Trout fishing has been good. Lots of insect hatches should offer lots of opportunities for good dry fly fishing.

HAYSTACK RESERVOIR: A health advisory was issued for Haystack Reservoir on

NORTH TWIN: No recent reports. North

FLY-TYING CORNER

WICKIUP RESERVOIR: The water is very low and the only places to launch a boat are off the sandy beaches. Four-wheel drive is a must to pull your boat back out. Rainbow trout and brown trout will be following spawning kokanee to feed on eggs.

By Gary Lewis For The Bulletin

Want to catch big bass on the surface? Want a fly to take to New Zealand or Alaska or Russia, where the trout key on rodents? Here is one of the most cast-able mouse patterns I have seen in a long time.

Picture a mouse that fell into the water. Make your fly swim, its tail wiggling, its legs in constant motion. Not the best of swimmers, it goes this way and that. And it is vulnerable. Sometimes bass see the mouse in the air and track it. Once, I had a bass streak from 10 feet away to be there when the mouse hit the water. Fish on!

Tie this pattern with 3/0 black thread on a No. 4 TMC 5263 hook. For the tail, tie in a narrow brown rabbit strip with a tuft of hair left at the tip. For the back, tie in a tapered strip of 6mm black foam. Build the body with spun cow elk hair. Trim bottom and top as shown. Pull the foam over and tie down at the eye. Trim foam to leave a head over the eye of the hook.

HUNTING REPORT

Deer hunters enjoyed above-average success for opener 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:

PRINEVILLE/OCHOCO WILDLIFE DISTRICT DEER OPENER: Opening weekend buck hunters enjoyed average to above-average success though conditions were hot and dry. Most of the animals taken were yearling bucks, but several nice older bucks were taken in the Maury and Ochoco units. The predicted cooler weather

should provide improved hunting conditions, and the bucks taken have been in excellent shape. Overall harvest success for the weekend was 8 percent, an improvement over the 5 percent observed last year.

Hunters are reminded the Rager and South Boundary Travel Management Areas (TMA’s) will be in effect in the Ochoco unit.

GENERAL: Weather conditions have been variable, with wide temperature extremes, and cold temperatures at higher elevations. 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). Two cooperative travel management areas (Rager and

South Boundary) are in effect in the Ochoco unit. Maps are available at entry portal signs and at ODFW and Ochoco National Forest offices in Prineville.

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 first to make an appointment.

BEAR: Best hunting 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.

UPLAND GAME BIRD SEASONS: Includ-

ing valley and mountain quail, and chukar will open Saturday, Oct. 9.

A cold wet spring resulted in poor early hatches for these species, but the late hatches appear strong.

Hunters should check the synopsis for mountain quail, as only selected counties (including Crook) are open

for hunting.

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.

THE BULLETIN • THURSDAY, OCTOBER 7, 2010

Pack extra layers as temperatures drop “We’ve got fine fall trail conditions,” said Chris Sabo, trails specialist for the Deschutes National Forest early this week. Some trails may be a little dusty, he added, but snow isn’t yet an issue.

However, he said Central Oregon hikers and bikers should be aware of cooler fall weather and earlier sunsets. He suggested trail users pack extra layers and their 10 essentials.

The seasonal leash restriction along the Deschutes River between the area near the Seventh Mountain Resort and Benham Falls is now off, though Sabo said those whose dogs aren’t under voice control should still consider leashing their pets.

Another consideration for trail users: Rifle hunting season has begun.

“Just so trail users are aware, they are going to see hunters,” he said. “Maybe wear brighter clothing, or if they see or hear one, whistle or give a hoot so you don’t surprise them.”

In the coming weeks, some logging projects may limit access near the Skyliner Trail, but signs will be posted at the Phil’s and Skyliner trailheads.

SPOTLIGHT Free communication workshop tonight Robert Killen will lead an interactive workshop on civil dialogue from 5:30 to 7 tonight at the Bend Public Library, 601 N.W. Wall St. The workshop, “Building Dialog in an Age of Demons,” explores ways to communicate civilly, without demonizing others. Killen, the executive director of the City Club of Central Oregon, will talk about gaining freedom from communication processes that consider collaboration a weakness.

There is no cost to attend the workshop. Contact: 541617-7080 or www.dpls.us.

Writers Guild to host Literary Harvest The Central Oregon Writers Guild will host its seventh Annual Literary Harvest from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Oct. 15 at Central Oregon Community College’s Hitchcock Auditorium, 2600 N.W. College Way, in Bend.

A FALL FROLIC Take a serene hike past waterfall, Oregon’s largest ponderosa pine on La Pine State Park trail system

By Eleanor Pierce The Bulletin

O

n a recent visit to La Pine State Park, I discovered it’s not just a great launch point for a long, lazy river float on a hot day. It’s also a good place to find some solitude and enjoy an easy walk among some trees, rivers and critters.

The park is also home to the largest ponderosa pine in the state. The 500-year-old Big Tree (some call it Big Red), stands 162 feet tall and nearly 30 feet around, according to the park’s website.

While Big Tree is a nice stop on your way into the park, I was drawn to the La Pine State Park trail system. So after stopping off at Big Tree for a couple of photos, I drove farther down the road and followed the signs to the McGregor Memorial Viewpoint, which looks down on a bend in the Deschutes River from cliffs that tower about 30 feet above the water.

From the viewpoint, there are several trail options, including the 1.5-mile McGregor Loop, the 3.5-mile Deschutes Loop and the 4.75-mile Fall River Loop.

After soaking in the view, I headed off northward on the Fall River trail. The weather was perfect for a fall hike, just chilly enough.

Soon after I left the trailhead, the solitude set in. Among the ponderosas, lodgepole pines and scant shrubbery, my dog (kept on leash, per park rules) and I were the only ones around.

For most of the well-signed walk, the scenery is the kind that’s good for quiet introspection more than anything else.

On the trail, I would occasionally come

Even those who can’t identify mushrooms can enjoy studying their features, like the leopardprint caps on these fungi. to an open area with another view of the Deschutes winding below. At one such outcropping I explored an abandoned cabin I’d seen before while floating the river below.

It was eerily ramshackle, with mattress springs, leaves and debris littering the floor. The roof appeared ready to fall in; in fact, it probably would have if it weren’t for the fireplace holding up one wall.

After a couple of miles of quiet, I saw a sign reading “Fly Fishing Only,” then I got my first view of the glassy Fall River, a mecca for fishermen.

A short way down the trail, I came to a trail intersection and nearly passed by, following the sign to continue on the Fall River Loop. But I glanced back at the sign and noticed an

If you go

The Big Tree stands 162 feet tall and nearly 30 feet around.

According to the La Pine State Park website, the tree may be more than 500 years old.

What: La Pine State Park and Fall River Loop Getting there: From Bend, take U.S. Highway 97 south toward La Pine. After milepost 160, turn right at the sign to La Pine State Park. The park is about 5.5 miles down the road. Follow signs to the right for Big Tree, or stay straight toward the campground, cross the river and turn right at the signs for the McGregor Memorial Viewpoint.

Cost: Free, no passes required Contact: 541-536-2071 arrow pointing a different direction, with the sign “Falls.” I’m glad I caught the sign, or I would have missed the side trip to the Fall River Falls.

About a quarter-mile away from the main loop, the falls are about 10 feet high and flow into a languid pool that begs to be visited again come summer.

Hooking back up with the main trail, I continued on the second half of the loop, stopping here and there to watch squirrels rushing about to get ready for winter or to inspect some of the leopard-print mushrooms that had popped up in discarded leaves along the trail.

I enjoyed the solitude on the walk so much that on the way back to my car, I didn’t notice a deer in the trail until I was close enough to startle it, at which point it bounded off into the woods.

Later, we moved aside to let a couple of bikers pass. The flat, multi-use, single- and doubletrack would make a nice mountain bike ride for families or others looking for an easy ride.

I suppose then I should amend my description of the solitude: It was just my dog and I, some very active squirrels, one startled deer and two bicyclists.

Pen pal’s story may change after release from prison Dear Abby: I am a parole officer, and while I agree with and support your response to “Smitten in New York” (Aug. 6), I would like to offer an additional comment. People can and do change their lives while incarcerated. However, when they are in a controlled environment, their changed lives on the outside are still in their imaginations.

Many inmates who make very positive plans for their future when they’re released discover life “on the outs” doesn’t unfold the way they imagined it would. Some of them deal with substance abuse issues, mental illness, brain injuries and a lack of education and life skills. I would caution “Smitten” not to become too involved with her pen pal after his release until he has proven his ability to be the partner she believes and hopes he will be.

— Kelly in Washington State Dear Kelly: Thank you for your comments. I received many letters from former pen pals of inmates, all advising — pleading with — “Smitten” to run as fast as she can from this man. Today, however, I’ll print some from those in the know from the “inside.” Read on: Dear Abby: “Smitten” and countless other women (and men) who write and visit inmates do not fully understand the situation they’re potentially putting themselves in.

Any one inmate receives numerous letters, graphic photos and visitors, and not all from the same “potential special person.”

Inmates live and breathe a 24/7 confined life, with nothing to do but find ways to entertain or protect themselves. It’s not far-fetched that an inmate may be under the control of a gang affiliation and need to do things to gain a “rep” inside. They have plenty of time to consider the who, how, what and wheres of surviving in jail.

Sure, some inmates have taken a different road, but is “Smitten” ready to bring a con into her family in the hopes that he’s telling the truth? I work in a maximum security prison in New York. “Smitten,”

DEAR ABBY I strongly urge you to reconsider communicating with this inmate.

And I hope you’re NOT sending him money or letting him know your financial situation.

— Seen from the Inside Dear Abby: I am a retired corrections officer from the state of Florida, and this woman has fallen for the most common game played by inmates. One person writes the letter and the others pay him for it with cigarettes or other items they can buy in the canteen. Inmates will come up with amazing fictions to make people feel sorry for them, or send them money to be put in their inmate trust fund.

I can guarantee “Smitten” that this inmate has absolutely no feelings for her and is only using her.

If she’s that gullible — or stupid — she deserves to be used. If she’s that lonely, she should get a dog!

— Chris in Florida Dear Abby: I’m a paralegal who has worked for a criminal defense attorney in Florida for many years.

Florida has a comprehensive Web site and its offender information search posts not only photos, but also lists prior incarcerations and case information about the crime for which inmates are presently serving. To find the state prison site, “Smitten” should input “Florida Department of Corrections” and look for the “Offender” information search.

“Smitten” is playing with fire, Abby, and if she gets burned it will be because she’d rather believe the fantasy and ignore the reality. She needs to do her homework before accepting this man’s declarations as truth.

Can Sanchez reinvent himself?

If so, it wouldn’t be the first time the former CNN anchor has resurrected his career, but some say his anti-Semitic rant was the last straw

somewhere else,” Dominick said.

“There are people in television who think they’re smart because they’re on television,” Roberts said. “They think they don’t have to think. And Sanchez is a victim of that. He really thought that what came out of his mouth was pearls of wisdom, and the stupidity just flowed. ... Is he anti-Semitic? I don’t think so. But he was very intemperate in his remarks, and he deserved to be fired.”

A checkered career

McClatchy-Tribune News Service

MIAMI — He’s been publicly buried so many times and has always clawed his way back out of the graves: an FBI investigation, a drunk-driving conviction, even being whipped in the ratings by Japanese cartoons. But can Rick Sanchez survive his meandering rant about Jewish control of the media, an ethnic slur that has already claimed his job?

The question was asked in broadcast studios and journalism classrooms all over the country this week after Sanchez’s weekend firing from his CNN anchor desk.

“I think his career is over,” said Sam Roberts, a former CBS News producer and retired University of Miami journalism professor. “I think he’s just radioactive now, and I don’t think any TV executive is willing to brave it.”

“You’ve seen Rick up, and you’ve seen Rick down, and he reinvents himself every time,” countered Miami radio talkshow host Ninoska Perez. “I think we’ll see him up again.”

’He deserved to be fired’ A popular Miami anchor during the 1980s and ’90s, when he was one of the first Cuban-Americans to make it on TV, the 52-year-old Sanchez was fired Friday from CNN after six years at the network.

CNN via The Associated Press

CNN fired news anchor Rick Sanchez last week after he called Jon Stewart a bigot in a radio show interview where he also questioned whether Jews should be considered a minority.

His dismissal followed a satellite-radio interview in which Sanchez said he was the victim of anti-Hispanic prejudice by Jewish media bosses. Sanchez, frequently the target of derisive punch lines by Comedy Central host Jon Stewart, called Stewart “a bigot” and sneered at the suggestion that the Jewish Stewart has ever encountered discrimination.

“I’m telling you that everybody who runs CNN is a lot like Stewart, and a lot of people who run all the other networks are a lot like Stewart, and to imply that somehow they, the people in this country who are Jewish, are an oppressed minority?” Sanchez said, then added with sarcastic emphasis: “Yeah.”

His bitter complaints were anything but a momentary blurt — the raw exchange with Sirius XM radio host Peter Dominick lasted more than 20 minutes. Dominick later told the Hollywood Reporter he felt badly about the outcome of the interview but that Sanchez had entered the studio with “a live grenade in his mouth.”

“If Rick didn’t do it on my show, he would have done it

Sanchez was born in Cuba and grew up in Hialeah, Fla., near Miami. His scorching intensity and classic Latin good looks made him an instant sensation when he debuted on WSVN-TV in 1982.

But when FBI microphones picked up Sanchez partying with and accepting financial favors from Hialeah political fixer Alberto San Pedro during a 1986 investigation of influence peddling, his South Florida broadcasting career seemed finished.

Sanchez went off to Houston, where he was a ratings flop.

He returned 18 months later, once again an instant success as he led a new tabloid-ish WSVN news format that became known as “if it bleeds, it leads.” Even a drunk-driving conviction after an accident that left a pedestrian (who was also drunk) paralyzed didn’t dent his popularity there.

But a shot on the national stage as an anchor at MSNBC was a ratings disaster and so was his return to host a WTVJ-TV talk show that was consistently whipped in the ratings by cartoons.

Sanchez’s career finally seemed to have stabilized since he joined CNN, first as a reporter and then as an afternoon anchor.

“He’s a very passionate guy,

and that can maybe sometimes get the best of him,” said Lisa Navarette, spokeswoman for the National Council of La Raza, a Hispanic lobby. “But he was an important advocate within CNN for diversity and an important voice for lowering the heat on coverage of the immigration issue. ... We were sad to see him go.”

And, Navarette added, the anger over Sanchez’s remarks about Jews is masking the truth of his complaints about discrimination against Hispanic reporters and anchors in the Englishspeaking television world.

But for Jews, Sanchez’s words were just more salt in an ancient anti-Semitic wound.

“This is an old story, and there are left-wing and right-wing versions of it,” said Todd Gitlin, a Columbia University professor of sociology and journalism. “The intensity and ferocity and dementia of the claim transcend many normal political differences. ...

No sooner were the modern media born than we started hearing the accusation that not only do Jews control the media, but they do it invidiously, deploying newspapers and other media against other groups. It’s one of the old arrows in the quiver of routine anti-Semitism.”

Fox’s ‘Running Wilde’ races to find audience

By DAVE ITZKOFF New York Times News Service

SANDS POINT, N.Y. — Lunching in the dining room of a Gatsbyesque country club where his Fox comedy “Running Wilde” was filming on a rainy Friday, Will Arnett was making the best of his opulent settings. He took alternating bites of the chocolate chip pie and carrot cake on his plate, and he joked that he had been transported to work that morning by “a driver who takes me to a helicopter that flies me to Boston, and then I take a ferry from there.”

But Arnett, 40, a star and cocreator of “Running Wilde,” was also acutely aware of the illusion being perpetrated. Beyond the very real storm that was bogging down production, a figurative cloud loomed over “Running Wilde” even before it made its debut two weeks ago.

Before a reporter could fully inquire if he felt uncertain about the new series, Arnett knew what he was about to be asked. “To anticipate your question, yes,” he said.

“But you know, it is one of those things that’s out of your control.”

“Running Wilde” was a series with some buzz when it was announced by Fox in the spring: It reunited Arnett, a star of the cult comedy “Arrested Development,” with that show’s creator, Mitchell Hurwitz. And it cast Arnett in his apparent comfort zone, as a spoiled oil company scion trying to romance the eco-conscious girl of his dreams (played by Keri Russell of “Felicity”).

But any heat around “Running Wilde” dissipated over the summer. Early reaction to the pilot was negative, leading its producers to recast several supporting roles and to reshoot several scenes.

The revised pilot that made its debut on Sept. 21 did not fare much better. In a review of “Running Wilde” for The New York Times, Alessandra Stanley described it as a mix of “Arthur” and “Sabrina” that “strains to make the tycoon’s son endearingly weak and childish.”

About 5.9 million people watched that episode, which faced stiff competition from shows like ABC’s “Dancing With the Stars” and CBS’ “NCIS: Los Angeles.” Viewers of a second episode of “Running Wilde” declined to about 4.7 million.

Aware that the Fox network will not hesitate to swing its scythe at poorly performing newcomers

— it has already canceled “Lone Star” after two episodes — the “Running Wilde” team has been getting by with a little hope and a lot of self-deprecating humor. Its cast and crew members seem to recognize that there is little more they can do to win over new viewers and that the best they can do in the time they have is to make one another laugh.

“As long as we feel like we’re doing that, we feel fairly confident that what we’re doing is not terrible,” Arnett said. “Whether other people like it or not is yet to be determined.”

At his lunch table, Arnett traded affectionate barbs with Russell, his co-star Peter Serafinowicz and Ana Gasteyer, a “Saturday Night Live” alumna who was making a guest appearance on the show.

He also spoke frankly about how the legacy of “Arrested Development,” a well-liked if not well-watched Fox series, might have been too great a burden for “Running Wilde” to carry.

“It seemed like there was backlash to our show before it started,” Arnett said. (“Forelash,” Serafinowicz added.)

After the cancellation of “Arrested Development” in 2006, Arnett, Hurwitz and James Vallely, another “Arrested Development” producer, worked together briefly on an animated series, “Sit Down, Shut Up.” When that show fizzled after a few episodes in 2009, the three partners returned to the idea of a live-action comedy — one with less narrative complexity than the rapid-fire “Arrested Development,” and with a romantic tension at its core.

But the “Running Wilde” pilot they devised, Arnett acknowledged, tried too hard for laughs at the expense of establishing a believable relationship between his and Russell’s characters.

“We were too busy trying to get to what we think is funny, and what other people might not,” he said. “We just realized how many blind spots we had.”

In a telephone interview Hurwitz said he did not expect “Running Wilde” to be as closely measured against “Arrested Development” as it was.

Describing his thought process, he said: “No one will ever be stupid enough to attempt this again, and I kind of thought the joke was going to be on the other people that tried. I did not think the joke was going to be on me.”

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Thursday, Oct. 7, 2010: This year, you will encounter new opportunities because of a willingness to greet differences and enjoy change. You decide to jump over certain barriers, especially if they are self-imposed.

Your creativity surges as you allow yourself more flex and mental growth. If you are single, you certainly can wave goodbye to your “alone” status, if you so choose. If you are attached, the two of you can connect as if you were old lovers. Once more, you are the dominant force here.

Work on not being too meoriented. A fellow LIBRA can be very different from you, but also motivated by the same issues.

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 Others continue to make an effort. Some people try charm; others could be overly serious. What is clear is that someone wants a new beginning in relating. Can you let bygones be bygones? Tonight: Defer to another person’s suggestion.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH You might be looking at reorganizing a key element in your life. This effort could be as simple as some fall cleaning. What is clear is that you want a change and will create it. Tonight: Be sensitive to a friend or associate.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Whether swapping jokes

or lightening up another’s mood, you seem to represent lightness and creativity. Single Gemini could see a change in their status in the near future. Attached Gemini eye their first child. Life could get exciting! Tonight: Think “weekend,” even if it is a little early.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH If you can work from home, by all means, do. Understand what is happening behind the scenes with a family member. Make a decision about a discussion and help this person start anew.

Tonight: Happy at home.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH You have been more serious and less light and easy.

You could see this behavior as you weigh the pros and cons of a new major purchase — a computer, car or whatever you need. Nevertheless, you will decide to just do it. Tonight: Catch up on a pal’s news.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH You know the pros and cons of a money decision.

Decide how to approach your finances, and what works best for you. You will decide to follow through and will be able to keep a resolution. Tonight: Check in with a respected financial expert.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHHH Once you relax, you can move forward with a heartfelt desire. Honor some ambivalence and have a discussion with a trusted adviser. You might be surprised by the direction you decide to head in. Tonight: Use the New Moon in your sign for a new beginning.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HH Sometimes the less said the better. You might feel that you need to eradicate certain negative patterns. Know that with your will power, nothing can stop you once you make up your mind.

Tonight: Make it OK to vanish.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Meetings could be more instrumental than you realize. Think before you leap into action. Others want to talk and open up to possibilities.

Humor helps eliminate tension.

Tonight: Where the gang is.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH A must event allows greater flexibility and fun in your life. Take an opportunity to express your daring attitude. A new beginning becomes a possibility. You have an opportunity to clear the air. Finally.

Tonight: A force to be dealt with.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH Take an overview.

Be willing to open up to new possibilities. Investigate an opportunity that is forthcoming.

You will make a difference if you can graciously let go of what no longer works.

Tonight: Seriously consider taking a workshop or class.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHHH Deal with others directly. You’ll discover what is happening. Understanding evolves between you and others, especially if you choose to relate on an individual level. Tonight: A discussion over dinner. © 2010 by King Features Syndicate

Visiting Aspen, off-season can be just right season

By Andrea Sachs The Washington Post

A

spen is decompressing, before it starts all over again.

During shoulder season, the siesta between the onslaughts of summer and winter sports enthusiasts, the Colorado mountain town reclaims its natural self.

For two months, it slows down, the crowds thin out and the landscape displays a mashup of green grasses, golden aspen leaves and snow-white mountaintops.

“In the off-season, what I treasure is the stillness. It’s not the hustle and bustle of the high seasons,” said Aspen resident Paul MacFarlane. “It’s the big exhale.”

Traveling during the off-season — typically mid-September to pre-Thanksgiving and again in late spring — opens up experiences that are rare during busier times. Beaches and mountain trails regain their personal space.

Hotels and restaurants offer special rates and menus. On-street parking becomes available.

Stores discount clothes. And locals, now out of the weeds, surface with smiles on their faces.

“Leisure travel has peaks and valleys,” said Ike Anand, director of airline analytics at Expedia, “and there is a big valley between Sept. 15 and Nov. 15.”

By definition, shoulder season is the transitional period between high and low times. For instance, Bermuda and Nantucket — lovely in summer, less so in winter.

But the term can also refer to the bridge that connects two popular seasons: For example, Colorado draws hikers, rafters and campers in the warm months, and skiers, snowboarders and snowmen in the wintertime. That leaves the gap weeks to fringe travelers.

If I wanted some alone time on the mountain, I had to go now.

Four-legged friends

Huts and a hike The 10th Mountain Division Huts offer one of the more communal adventures in Colorado.

For social and survivalist reasons, you must lose your fears of snoring among strangers and wearing long underwear in public.

The backcountry trail honors the U.S. Army soldiers who prepared for World War II battle in the Alps by training in the Rockies. Nearly 30 huts, many resembling youth hostels, spring up along the Aspen-Vail-Leadville route, providing hikers and skiers with nests for the night.

The huts book up fast during high season. Winter is already filling up, with many cabins hanging “no vacancy” signs, and summer reservations opened up last week.

But three days before arriving in Colorado recently, I had little competition and more options than I could lay my head on.

To break up the 3 1/2-hour drive from Denver to Aspen, I grabbed a room at Shrine Mountain Inn, near Vail Pass. The lodge stays open year-round, a rarity among the Mountain Division shelters.

The 80-acre property comprises three log structures that are more grand chalet than humble cabin. During my chosen night, the upper level of Chuck’s Lodge, which sleeps six, was available, as was a bed in Jay’s Cabin, which contains a sizable kitchen with a fridge cooled by snow (when available) and mattresses for 12. I chose Jay’s and the family of nine that came with it.

I took the top-floor room with twin beds covered in wool blankets and a connecting bathroom with a cotton-candy-pink tub with claw feet.

Near the inn, a 1.7-mile trail leads through spruce trees and willows to a ridge ringed by brawny mountains, some already donning snowy caps. I pulled out my orange velour sweat shirt and swooped it around my head like a turban, quickly feeling the blood return to my ears.

I ran into the family atop the ridge, and the father pointed out the Mount of the Holy Cross in the far distance. Closer to the trail, I studied a rock formation that resembled a mythical ship that had landed, UFO-style, in the valley.

That Rocky Mountain high was taking hold.

When I returned to the lodge, pasta was boiling on the stove and wine was flowing from boxes. As I accepted a glass of white, Julie, a nurse who was celebrating her 50th, offered to check my oxygen level with a finger monitor. I placed the oximeter on the tip of my index finger, trying not to hold my breath for fear of skewing the results. I earned an 86, which Marty, also a nurse, ex-

If you go

During shoulder season, lodging can be more available in popular destinations such as Aspen, Colo. Pictured is Jay’s Cabin in Shrine Mountain Inn. plained signified the percentage of oxygen in my blood.

“If your doctor in D.C. saw that number, he’d rush you to the hospital,” he said. “But up here, in the high altitude, that’s a good result.”

I treated my healthy red blood cells to a sip of wine.

The group of nine left the next day. Out of curiosity, I popped in on caretaker Sherry Mieling, who lives in a yurt, and asked about availability for Friday night. Jay’s Cabin was empty; I’d have a dozen beds to myself.

Adopted in Aspen Only two main roads lead into Aspen, but that number drops to one with the onset of winter.

Once conditions deteriorate, Independence Pass closes: If you were to skid, you could soar off a cliff like Wile E. Coyote, but without the cartoon ending.

The 44-mile highway wiggles like an elongated snake, winding past sparkling lakes with small islands of aspens and peaks that crowd the sky. Many hazards pepper the route, including people creeping around the roadside, their camera lenses sticking out like long branches. After many up-up-ups and down-downdowns, I landed in Aspen, feeling as if I had fallen from the sky.

Luckily, I had a new friend to catch me.

Six months ago, the city unveiled its Adopt a Tourist program, which brings together locals and visitors for a play date.

Since its inception, 45 Aspenites have signed up as chaperons and 150 guests have been adopted.

“My goal is that someone would feel welcome, comfortable and embraced from the moment they get here,” said Paul MacFarlane, who developed the idea.

“You can go home with a photograph, or you can go home with a photo, e-mails, phone numbers and friends.”

To help make the best match,

both sides fill out a form that poses such probing questions as “How long do you want to be adopted?” and asks about day/night habits and hobbies.

My local was named Lisa, and for our outing, the 25-year resident suggested a bike ride. A brilliant idea, I told her, though in hindsight, a sporty activity could be as risky as ordering spaghetti on a first date. Potentially messy, especially if one of us took a spill.

Lisa, a dark-haired bohemian dressed in a flowy top, dark skinny pants and slip-on sandals, picked me up outside the cafe Peaches. We boarded our bikes and coasted down to the Rio Grande Trail, which parallels the burbling river. Despite her girlie bike with basket and her risky footwear, she jumped the curbs like a BMXer. On an early stretch of path, Lisa explained the cape of exclusivity that wraps itself around Aspen. She said the community changed about 10 years ago, when the billionaires moved to town, fracturing the community’s fraternal nature. To prove her point, she told me how the owners of a mansion we had just passed had challenged the city to remove the bike trail. They lost, and the trail survived.

Over two days, Lisa and I spent a substantial amount of time together: She joined me at the Saturday market and took me into stores in search of steep discounts. We drove out to the Maroon Bells to savor the flickering evening light around the muchphotographed peaks, and rode the gondola up Aspen mountain.

At the summit, she grabbed a hula hoop from a pile and started swinging the plastic ring around her waist as if she were Saturn.

She grabbed a second hoop that she spun on her arm. That night, we looked for visiting billionaires at the St. Regis, then moved on to Sky Hotel, where we roasted by the poolside fire pit. We ended

I decided to give back to a community that emphasizes “body, mind and spirit.” For 18 years, Seth Sachson has run a program at the animal shelter that allows guests to borrow a dog for a day hike or a trot around town.

“The animals need love, exercise and touch every day, so they stay adoptable and sane,” he said.

The facility can house up to 30 dogs. The ones woofing up a storm in Seth’s office were husky mixes from a nearby dogsledding operation. Other canines come through the Wyly family of Dallas, who find homeless dogs in Hillsboro, Texas, and transport them north in their private jet.

Over the summer, the program grew so popular (about 20 walkers a day) that the animals were getting a lot of — even too much — exercise. But now in the offseason, the pace has slowed, and Seth can spend more time pairing the right human with the right dog. His process reminded me of the Adopt a Tourist program, the only difference being that the local has four legs and howls.

He chose for me a female husky mix who was less than two years old and already the mother of four. A wall displays bios of each dog, with personal descriptions that read faintly like Match .com profiles. Alex, nee Melana, was noted for being sweet and shy, and easy with the kisses.

Seth drove us to the trailhead of the Rio Grande Trail, setting us loose at the top of steep stairs that Alex maneuvered with the grace of a doe. We crossed over the river and continued on the path that I had earlier biked with my own

adopter. We stopped at a waterfall so that one of us could quench her thirst. Traffic was light, with a few cyclists wheeling by, calling out “puppy, puppy.” Alex would glance up, then return to sniffing out the scents mixed in with the flowers and dry earth.

After an hour, we retraced our steps. By the time we reached the shelter, we were both panting, having sufficiently worked our bodies and lifted our spirits.

Soaking it all up at Glenwood Springs The hot springs of Glenwood Springs, less than an hour from Aspen, are impervious to air temperature and inclement weather.

In rain, snow, sleet or sun, cold or heat, the outdoor baths are a reliable 93 degrees in the 100foot pool and 104 degrees in the 405-footer. Bathers, however, are more programmed to the seasons. In summer, the facility attracts 30 percent more visitors than it does the rest of the year.

“I don’t even come here dur-

ing the summer, because I don’t want to deal with the kids and the crowds,” said Rosie Huff, who once owned a restaurant in town.

After strolling a few laps, I settled into a spalike chair attached to the inside edge of the pool. When you pop a quarter into a machine, jets emit hot bubbles for five minutes. An elegant older woman named Helen was clutching a plastic change purse full of coins. She deposited four quarters and offered me 50 cents for my own treatment.

As we sat together in our boiling pots, she told me that she and her husband divide their time between Glenwood Springs and Venice, Fla. She was soon leaving one shoulder season for another.

A man with steaming glasses then joined us, confessing that he had accidentally put his quarters in Helen’s chair. Bubbled out, Helen proffered her seat to me and floated off to join her husband.

I moved over to Helen’s spot but first looked around to be sure I was not monopolizing. All the chairs in the row were empty, except mine.

‘Parenthood’s’ Shepard: ‘There’s no master plan’

By B.J. Hammerstein Detroit Free Press

DETROIT — Things are going well for 35-year-old Dax Shepard, who began his Hollywood ascent in 2003 on Ashton Kutcher’s MTV hidden-camera TV series “Punk’d.” The actor-writer-director appears weekly on the small screen on NBC’s family-centric dramedy “Parenthood” as “I’m just the fun-loving interested in Crosby Braverworking on man, a young good, solid man thrust into projects with adulthood by talented way of a longpeople. And I distance relalove working.” tionship and — Dax (surprise!) a 5Shepard, acyear-old son. tor on NBC’s Critics are “Parenthood” also buzzing about his performance in the critically acclaimed film “The Freebie,” the story of a married couple who decide to give up that whole monogamy thing for just one night. Meanwhile, Shepard’s mockumentary “Brother’s Justice,” in which he gives up his comedy and acting life to pursue a career in martial arts, was just screened at the second annual Friars Club Comedy Film Festival in New York City.

The hysterical Shepard, who’s engaged to actress Kristen Bell, caught up with the Detroit Free Press to dish on Coney dogs, his Midwestern work ethic and more.

At the start of the second season of “Parenthood,” Crosby is mostly dealing with his girlfriend and son. It’s a pretty compelling relationship, one that many young men can probably relate to — that whole growing-up thing. Any hints you can provide on where Crosby’s going this season?

It’s always so annoying to be in this predicament, for all parties involved. I can’t tell you anything! Well, let’s see: Crosby’s girlfriend, Jasmine (Joy Bryant), took off to New York City with our son to take a job dancing. Yeah, this is the one thing about TV — I can’t really tell you anything. You just have to tell everyone that they’re going to have to watch. Sorry.

Q:

A:

For a lot of new shows with a large ensemble cast like yours, it sometimes takes a while for everyone to click on-screen.

Your show was getting very positive reviews from critics toward the end of its first season. Does all of this add more pressure going into the second year?

I would agree with that, especially in television, there are usually different directors each episode, and when the show is new, there’s not a body of work to look at. And even with the writers, they have to figure out people’s strong suits, too. That’s tricky. We have 14 different actors, and they are all just as unique in real life as they are in the show. ...

But what’s really cool about that is the opportunity I get to act in that type of environment. It’s really a great job. It’s the most fun I’ve ever had working, and I think we all have a really good time together. So there might be pressure for us to create this great show, but I think if we’re having a lot of fun doing it, especially in this family-based setting where we work very long hours for most of the year, it’s good to be in a spot where we’re all enjoying it.

That Braverman family of yours on “Parenthood” sure does like to spend a lot of time with each other.

It’s a TV show! You know, I think that’s what makes the show connect with viewers — everyone can relate to these characters in some way. Luckily for me, I’ve never found out that I actually have a kid out there. It’s weird.

On one hand, it’s ultra-realistic — families don’t come together in these nice and neat little packages. But on the other hand, we’re always together, and that doesn’t usually happen. It’s like a hyperreality, but if you’re going to enjoy Superman, you have to get over flying. Somehow all of our characters work 35 hours a week and raise kids and are able to be with each other all the time.

You’ve really put together an eclectic career so far, from starring in TV and movies to the behind-the-scenes work of writing and directing. Is there a specific area that appeals to you more than others?

There’s this common perception that actors are driving the ship or that people are more into directing. But really, for me, I don’t care how it takes shape

Q:

A:

Q: A:

Q: A:

— whether it’s acting, writing, directing. There’s no master plan.

When you make a master plan, or rather, when I make a master plan, the universe collapses. I’m aimless ... never aiming. I used to think I’d never do a TV show and now I’m on a TV show and I love it. Fifteen years from now, who knows? I may hate TV. If I learned anything in this wild world of ours, it’s that I don’t really make those kinds of plans anymore.

I’m just interested in working on good, solid projects with talented people. And I love working.

Do you miss Michigan at all?

For some unknown reason this summer, L.A. was very humid, and I loved it. It totally reminded me of Michigan, and that’s when I start missing that lake living, those warm nights.

There was a time when I would have American Coney Island ship out coneys on ice, and I would host Coney dog parties. I wish Lafayette would get it together.

Yeah, of course, we come back and see family and hit the lakes. ... But those party days of mine, where I’ve spent many days of my youth checking out bands and hanging out at places like the Lager House, those days of $1 PBRs (Pabst Blue Ribbons), are long gone.

Have you been keeping up with all the different projects in Michigan?

It’s interesting, that’s for sure. Most actors live in Los Angeles, and — I don’t know — it’s actually got to be kind of hard. It’s cool for Michigan, and everyone knows I’m from there, so I hear a lot of things about people working there. But for me, I’ve been living in Los Angeles for 15 years now, and if there was a version of “Parenthood” that was going to be set up in Philadelphia ... I love Philly, but I can’t move to Philly. I can’t leave L.A. now.

I guess I’m just really selfish. I mean, if I told my fiancee I just got a job in Philly, she’d be like, “What the ...?!?” For actors, working on a TV show is very time-consuming — you’re going to be working on that like nine or 10 months out of the year. And it’s not like these NBA athletes where we’re going to make $20 million for this one season: “Here you go. Come do it.” I probably sound like a real jerk. I did mention I am very selfish, right?

A push to prevent whooping cough Combining booster with tetanus shots would help, local health officials say

In 2005, federal MEDICINE public health aucough Whooping thorities recommended that doctors start using a combination shot, known as Tdap, that includes boosters for tetanus, diphtheria and pertussis, instead of the tetanus-diphtheria booster, or Td, they had been using.

But five years later, many patients still aren’t getting the Tdap booster when they need a tetanus shot. Each time a patient gets a Td booster instead, it represents a lost opportunity to control the spread of pertussis.

“It’s a lack of awareness,” said Heather Kaisner, immunization coordinator for Deschutes County Health Services. “People are still going into the ER and getting that tetanus shot instead of the Tdap.”

on’t think you have the time or the money to prepare healthy food? Well, put down that frozen pizza, because we’re here to prove you wrong.

The Bulletin recruited NUTR four local nutrition experts to give us their recipes for quick-to-make meals that provide a lot of nutrition without breaking the bank.

They each sent in a full dinner that you can make for a family of four for $18 or less.

Nutrition experts also gave us some general tips for making your meals less expensive without sacrificing nutrition.

One of the biggest complaints that

Laura Spaulding hears is that fresh fruits and vegetables are too expensive. Spaulding, director of the Women, Infants and Children program at the Deschutes County Health I T I O N Department, said it’s cheaper to buy fruits and vegetables that are in season, which are often the same ones that are on sale.

She also said that frozen vegetables are a great substitute for fresh and, depending on how they are processed, sometimes more nutritious.

Julie Hood, a registered dietitian and associate professor at Central Oregon Community College, advised us to eat

the way the food pyramid is structured.

That means the bulk of your diet should come from whole grains, then fruits and vegetables, with meat and dairy as the smallest part of your daily intake. “If we do that, it’s a lot cheaper,” she said.

Lynne Oldham, a registered dietitian at St. Charles Bend, said she sees a lot of people wasting money on soda. Buy tea instead, she advises, which is both cheaper and better for you.

Oldham also had an idea for one of the quickest and cheapest meals of all. “I’m a big fan of sweet potatoes. Microwave them, and then add any topping.”

If you like that one, you’ll love the four cheap dinners below.

By Leslie Barker Garcia The Dallas Morning News

The one theory of stretching everyone seems to agree on can be summed up in two words: Don’t bounce.

After that, pull the ring tab and step back. Broaching the topic, triathlon F I T N coach Tommy Johnson says, is like “opening up a can of worms.”

What, you may ask, could possibly be contentious about something that is supposed to keep you injury-free and immune from soreness?

Plenty, it turns out. “There is a bit of a controversy about whether you should stretch at all,” says Dallas trainer Ron Incerta.

When USA Track & Field conducted a clinical trial of almost 3,000 runners, the results, published last month, were essentially a wash: Those who

stretched had the same injury risk as those who didn’t.

A Nebraska Wesleyan University study deflated another theory, the idea that flexibility achieved through stretching makes for a better runner. The results showed that E S S runners with tighter muscles are more economical runners than those who are more flexible.

“If you want to stretch because you’re tight and think you’ll become more flexible, I don’t see that as the case,” says Plano, Texas, physical therapist Jake Spivey. “Stretching isn’t to improve the length of the tissue, but to prepare the tissue for exercise and not create injury during the course of it. If you just take off, you can create overuse issues such as tendonitis or bursitis.”

Few patients enroll in federally subsidized high-risk pools

Study shows why some want redo of nose job

WASHINGTON — Ruth Titus, a 59-year-old cook from Taos, N.M., leaped at the opportunity in July to sign up for health insurance under a new federally subsidized program for uninsured people with health problems. With her history of bladder cancer, she said, “it was hopeless to even look” for private coverage because she would be turned down.

Titus is one of what some officials say has been an unexpectedly small number of people to sign up for the program, which the Obama administration touted as an early benefit of the new health overhaul law. It began last month in 30 states with the expectation that many thousands of uninsured people would apply for the opportunity to get comprehensive coverage regardless of their health status, but that hasn’t been the case.

About 3,600 people have applied and about 1,200 have been approved so far in state plans that started in the beginning of July, according to data from the states and federal government.

Officials say the new plans, although they’re a better deal than anything comparable on the private market, still may be unafThinkstock fordable for many people.

Despite how aesthetic plastic surgery is portrayed on reality shows, there isn’t always a happy ending. A study released in the Archives of Facial Plastic Surgery finds that people who want revisions on their nose jobs may do so because they don’t like the way their nose looks — most cited an asymmetrical tip — or functions.

The study surveyed 104 people (83 percent women) who had undergone at least one or more rhinoplasties (also known as nose jobs) and were interested in redoing them. The most common aesthetic concerns among patients and doctors were tip asymmetry, the middle third of the nose being crooked, and having an irregularity in the upper third of the nose.

About two-thirds of the patients also had subjective complaints about nasal obstruction, and the most common problems were having the sensation of nasal blockage, breathing through the mouth, and snoring. Physicians backed up 94 percent of those concerns by finding something that was causing a nasal obstruction.

The survey also revealed that surgeons dealt with 79 percent of the patients’ worries about aesthetic issues. But patients also said that only 55 percent of the surgeons’ findings mattered to them. The authors noted that this was similar to another study that found surgeons are more critical of how patients look post-op than the patients themselves.

N Recipes from local dietitians (continued from Page F1) Thinkstock photos

CHICKEN WITH BROCCOLI AND POTATOES Annie Williamson, a registered dietitian at Bend Memorial Clinic, said she likes this meal because it can be made quickly and easily, particularly if you cook the potatoes either partially or wholly in the microwave.

She also put it together, she said, because it contains a variety of different foods. The chicken contains lean protein; a typical portion contains just 10 percent of your daily recommended amount of fat. The broccoli and potatoes, she said, are good sources of fiber and of vitamins A and C. 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts 1 to 1¼ C dried Italian bread crumbs 1 to 2 eggs 2 broccoli crowns 1 lemon

MACARONI AND CHEESE WITH SALAD AND FRUIT SLUSHY Baked potato

4 sm Russet potatoes (we got two lg potatoes) ½ C light sour cream 4 TBS butter or margarine

1. Crack eggs into a bowl and dip in chicken breasts to coat. Roll in bread crumbs. Bake at 425 degrees for 20 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.

2. Wash and chop broccoli. Steam for a couple of minutes, longer if you want it more tender. Sprinkle with lemon juice.

3. Wash and bake potatoes. (Can microwave or bake in the oven until soft.) Serve with small amounts of butter and sour cream.

QUESADILLA PIE AND SPANISH RICE

Lori Brizee, registered dietitian at Central Oregon Nutrition Consultants, submitted this recipe. Macaroni and cheese is a kid-pleaser, and the homemade version has more protein, calcium and whole grains, with much less sodium than the packaged mix. With all the cheese, the main dish is fairly high in fat; Brizee said pairing it with a low-fat salad and no-fat dessert rounds out the meal.

The macaroni and cheese contains fiber, B vitamins and calcium. The salad gives a healthy dose of vitamins A and C and folic acid. The fruit slushy adds more fiber along with potassium, vitamins and antioxidants.

MACARONI 2 C whole wheat macaroni 8 C water for cooking macaroni 2 C non-fat milk 2 TBS cornstarch

2 C medium or sharp cheddar, or Swiss cheese Optional: 3-4 drops Tobasco sauce, ¼ tsp dry mustard; 1 ⁄8 tsp ground black pepper

1. Bring water to a boil, add macaroni and cook for 8 to 10 minutes. Drain.

2. While macaroni is cooking, shred cheese. Mix cold milk with cornstarch and optional seasonings in a heavy saucepan until cornstarch is dissolved. Heat mixture over medium to high heat, stirring constantly until mixture comes to a boil and thickens.

3. Add shredded cheese and stir until melted. Mix with cooked macaroni and serve.

homemade version has more protein, calcium and whole grains, with much less sodium than the packaged mix.

How to have a healthy frozen meal Daily Press (Newport News, Va.) Frozen dinners are convenient, but many also are high in fat, calories and salt. Here’s advice from dietitians on making the meals as nutritious as possible.

Read labels. Aim for entrees with fewer than 400 calories and no more than 30 percent of those calories from fat. Keep saturated fat at less than six grams — less than four if possible — and sodium under 600 milligrams.

Check the ingredients. You want meals with lots of vegetables, lean grilled meats and whole grains

such as brown rice. Avoid heavy cream sauces and lots of cheese.

Watch portion sizes. A package marketed as a single meal actually might contain several servings.

Supplement with healthy sides.

Add vitamins, protein and calcium to your meal by pairing a frozen dinner with a small salad, fruit cup, low-fat yogurt with berries or a glass of low-fat milk. The extra food also will satisfy your appetite, especially if your entree is less than 300 calories.

Go light on added sauces. If

a meal comes with a separate packet of seasoning, use less of it to slice sodium content (and often fat and calories, too).

Don’t be fooled by advertising.

A package marked with words such as “healthy,” “natural” or “organic” isn’t necessarily good for you.

Know the best and worst. Generally, potpies with crust and pizzas with extra cheese or stuffed crust tend to be diet busters. On the flip side, entrees from Lean Cuisine, Smart Ones or Healthy Choice often are your smartest options — although you still need to check labels.

Black beans

BLACK BEANS AND RICE WITH APPLE CRISP Lynne Oldham, a registered dietitian at St. Charles Bend, said this meal is quick; she estimates it would take about 45 minutes, with most of the time spent waiting for the rice to cook.

She advises that people buy brown rice, which, unlike white rice, contains nutrients that protect against cancer, heart disease, high cholesterol, Type 2 diabetes and weight gain.

Beans are a great source of iron, Oldham said, and a cheap way to get protein.

The toppings — salsa, avocado, tomato and cheese — contain a number of nutrients including vitamins A and C, calcium and, from the tomatoes, lycopene, an antioxidant that may lower your risk of some cancers.

BLACK BEANS AND RICE 1 C brown rice 2 to 2½ C water to cook rice 1 can black beans

2 medium or 1 large tomato Salsa 1-2 avocados 1 bag grated cheese

1. Cook rice over stove or in rice cooker. Heat up black beans.

2. Chop tomato and avocado.

3. Mix rice and black beans together. Top with rest of ingredients.

APPLE CRISP 5 TBS butter or margarine Apple Crisp mix

4 to 5 medium tart apples, peeled and cored (we chose Gala)

Cook according to mix directions. If you can’t find the mix, which we found in the produce section, you can substitute a mixture of brown sugar, oatmeal, wheat flour and spices. Combine dry ingredients, then cut softened butter into mix until there is no powder left. Place apples in baking dish and sprinkle mixture over the top.

Bake at 375 degrees for 30 to 45 minutes or until juice is bubbling and apples are soft.

Kids with food allergies may be targeted by bullies

By Jeannine Stein Los Angeles Times

As if kids with food allergies didn’t have enough to deal with at school, now they may have to worry about being bullied. A study finds that some children who have food allergies could be the target of bullies — and some of those bullies could be teachers.

A new report in the journal Annals of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology finds that about onequarter of children surveyed said they were bullied because of their food allergies. Researchers gave surveys to 353 children and teens with food allergies; the vast majority were completed by parents.

The survey revealed that about 24 percent of the participants had been bullied, teased or harassed because of their allergies. About 86 percent of this group said they had been harassed more than once and that it occurred most often at school. (Most children reported having multiple food allergies, but peanut allergies were most common.)

When asked why they were bullied, about 79 percent said it was because of the food allergy and the rest thought they were bothered because of a number of related issues, including having to carry medication, being set apart at mealtimes and getting special treatment. Among those who had been bullied, about 44 percent said that the food they were allergic

to had been waved in their face.

However, none of the participants reported having an allergic reaction as a result of being bullied.

Most of the bullies were classmates, but about 18 participants said a teacher or other school staff member had done the teasing.

Emotional issues were one fallout, with some children saying they felt depressed, embarrassed and humiliated because of the teasing. In the study, the authors wrote, “These actions pose a risk of psychological harm in all people, but unique to this population is that bullying, teasing,or harassment can also pose a direct physical threat when the allergen is involved.”

MINNEAPOLIS — Before Simone French was one of the nation’s foremost researchers on eating habits — long before her studies warned about fast-food marketing and Coke machines in schools — she was a teen who snacked after school on Twinkies and dined at Burger King.

Which is to say she un- Simone derstands the French cravings and time crunches and cost concerns that make people choose unhealthy foods even when they know they shouldn’t. “Right now,” she said, “the easy choice is the unhealthy choice.”

French, 46, is part of a powerhouse team at the University of Minnesota’s School of Public Health that won a $7 million federal grant last month to change the habits of hundreds of families. The project is part of an ongoing university research program that seeks to motivate better health and eating through studies of family dinners, school lunches and food commercials.

The project is one of the first times that researchers will

wrap multiple, proven solutions around families all at once, including health advisers, classes on eating and exercise, and vouchers for healthy food that researchers will make sure is stocked in neighborhood stores.

“If this doesn’t work,” French said, “I don’t know what will.”

Raised by a single mom, French sympathizes with parents. Families with two working parents struggle to find time to make dinner, she notes.

Those in poorer neighborhoods might lack safe parks for exercise or affordable produce in local stores.

Nonetheless, she said, “Parents really are the home environment managers. They decide when (families) watch TV or how much McDonald’s they eat or when they’re going to get the frosted Lucky Charms.”

In addition to the time and money pressures they face, today’s parents were raised on the novelty of TV dinners and didn’t gain their parents’ cooking skills, she said. So Many parents she meets in her work are struggling to instill good habits in their children while continuing their own bad ones.

“They want their kids to eat well, but they don’t want to stop” drinking soda or munching potato chips, she said. “It doesn’t work because you have to be a role model, and you have to decide what kind of food to

bring into the house.”

At first glance, French seems to be fighting a losing battle. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has estimated that 34 percent of American adults are obese. Another 34 percent are overweight.

French believes research is starting to chip away at that trend by motivating insurers, employers, schools and governments to enact good health policies.

French supports tougher laws to reverse the nation’s obesity epidemic. Schools should dump soda machines, even if they provide valuable revenue, she said.

She also supports restrictions on foods that can be bought

through government assistance programs.

French’s latest grant is designed to prevent childhood obesity, but she said that will happen only by influencing parents and making eating well an easier choice. Recruiting hasn’t started, but families are already calling, she said. “People do feel overwhelmed.”

Critics have already suggested that the grant is a waste and that obese people need to toughen up and control their eating. But French said that kind of cynicism ignores the personal and social challenges that have made 70 percent of Americans overweight.

‘SAVIOR SIBLING’

CELEBRITY M EDICINE

IVF genetic testing is mainstream, but some say it needs oversight

By Josephine Marcotty Star Tribune (Minneapolis)

MINNEAPOLIS — Ten years ago a little girl from Colorado made medical history when her parents and her doctor at the University of Minnesota used genetic screening to create a baby that could save her life.

Now, 16 years old and back in Minnesota for her 10-year checkup, Molly Nash is unimpressed that her little brother — her irritating little brother — became a “savior sibling” by giving her his umbilical cord blood — the sole reason she’s alive today to back sass her parents.

Her parents, however, know what was at stake. Jack and Lisa Nash were offered a long-shot chance to save the life of their daughter and to have more children who did not have the fatal disease they both carry in their genes.

“I thank God every day that I have a 16-year-old to fight with,” said Lisa Nash, who brought Molly to the university last week.

When their story first became public, reaction from around the globe ranged from astonishment to horror and helped fuel the backlash against embryonic research.

Molly’s doctor at the university, Dr. John Wagner, was accused of playing God. Over the decade the ethical debate has subsided and the reproductive technologies they used to conceive and test their second child have become mainstream.

But Wagner and others who have watched the technologies advance and spread say the larger ethical questions raised by the Molly Nash case are more urgent than ever. They say government and professional oversight of reproductive technology is long overdue.

“The question is: Will you say no to anything that parents will ask for?” said Jeff Kahn, director of the university’s Center for Bioethics.

Molly Nash was born with a severe type of Fanconi anemia, a blood disorder that almost always results in leukemia by the age of 10. It’s rare, but far more common among people of Eastern European Jewish descent like the Nashes, who live in Englewood, Colo. Until Molly was born they had never heard of it and had no idea that they each carried a gene for it.

The only treatment is a bone marrow transplant. The greatest likelihood of success is when the donor marrow comes from a sibling who has genetically identical tissue, called HLA. The Nashes thought they would never have more children — until Wagner, an expert in bone marrow transplantation, came to them with a novel idea.

They could use in-vitro fertilization (IVF) to produce several embryos, then genetically test all of them for both Fanconi anemia and HLA type. If the genetic dice rolled in their favor, they would choose the healthy embryo, have a healthy baby and Wagner could use the infant’s umbilical cord blood as a source of new bone marrow for Molly.

It took several rounds of in-vitro fertilization, and tens of thousands of dollars borrowed from Jack’s parents, to get an embryo that cleared both hurdles. But six weeks after Adam was born, Molly got her transplant.

Then the headlines hit. One of the most memorable for Lisa Nash was the New York Post’s — “Frankenstein Baby.” One of Wagner’s favorites was “Evolution Is Dead.”

“How did we go from saving a child to evolution is dead?” he said.

Few questioned the Nashes’ decision to use genetic testing so they could have a child without Fanconi anemia. The critics focused on their decision to use genetic screening to select a child for a trait that would benefit someone else, Kahn said. Also, it raised the question of whether they wanted another child or were simply trying to save Molly.

“People have all sorts of motivations for having children,” Kahn said. “Some are virtuous, and some not so much. At least they had a good reason for having a child.”

Molly Nash, left, cuddles her 4-week-old brother, Adam, in 2000 in Minnesota. Molly, now 16, suffers from Fanconi anemia and received an umbilical cord blood transplant from her baby brother when she was 6.

The Nashes said they found some of the reaction ludicrous.

After all, they simply used a few teaspoons of Adam’s umbilical cord blood that would otherwise “have hit the trash can,” Lisa Nash said. “And Adam is not a designer baby.”

Since Molly’s transplant Wag-

ner has done the same with “savior siblings” for dozens of other children with Fanconi anemia and other disorders. Genetic testing of embryos is done for hundreds of different types of diseases at IVF clinics and transplant centers across the country. Wagner has recently pioneered “savior sibling” bone marrow transplants for children with a type of genetic skin disease, and he’s finding that the transplanted marrow cells are capable of making new skin.

But he’s encountered a number of cases that have made him uneasy and, he said, make the case for regulation and oversight of IVF clinics and transplant centers.

Today all the major IVF clinics do genetic testing of embryos at the parents’ request. The Nashes used it for their third child, who is now 7.

Most of the time, according to a 2005 survey of IVF clinics, they did it to test for diseases and HLA tissue typing. But about one time out of 10, it was used for gender selection, according the survey.

Eventually, Kahn said, as more genes for traits such as hair color or height or skin type are identified, the choices facing parents will expand as well.

“Is it time to think about external oversight?” he said.

Multiple sclerosis, symptoms can be treated with drugs Reality TV star and White House crasher Michaele Salahi announced last month that she has multiple sclerosis. According to the National MS Society, multiple sclerosis is a chronic, often disabling disease that attacks the central nervous system. The condition is unpredictable and can affect different people in different ways. Symptoms can range from numbness in the limbs to paralysis or loss of vision. MS occurs when the body’s defense system attacks myelin, the fatty sheath that protects nerve fibers. The damaged myelin forms scar tissue, known as sclerosis, which gives the disease its name.

The damage to the sheath and the nerve fibers interrupts or distorts the signals sent from the brain

and the spinal cord, resulting in a variety of symptoms. MS is not considered a fatal disease as most patients live a normal or near-normal life span. Women are two to three times more likely to be diagnosed than men, and most are diagnosed between the ages of 20 and 50.

Michaele Although there is no cure for Salahi MS, a number of medications have been approved to treat the condition and its symptoms.

An early sign of autism? Possibly

By Shari Roan Los Angeles Times

Infants frequently gaze at people’s faces. It’s as if they’re fascinated and, perhaps, yearning for interaction with the people in their lives. Infants who don’t exhibit this fondness for human faces, researchers say, may be exhibiting one of the first signs of autism.

With autism rates soaring over the last decade, researchers are seeking the earliest clues of the disorder. The sooner a child is diagnosed and begins treatment, experts say, the better the long-term outcome. In the Sep-

tember issue of the Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, leading autism researchers say they think infant gaze is among the first clues of social functioning. A hallmark characteristic of autism is an inability to socialize.

The researchers, from the Kennedy Krieger Institute in Baltimore and the University of Delaware, observed 25 6-monthold infants who were siblings of children with autism. (Siblings have a much higher risk of developing the disease.) They were compared with 25 infants from families with no history of au-

tism. The infants were observed performing a task that measured their ability to learn and their level of social engagement with a caregiver.

They found that the infants in the low-risk group were more likely to have normal social gazing. They looked at their caregivers, became excited while playing and pointed to the toy. The high-risk siblings, however, spent less time looking at their caregivers and more time focused on the toy. The two groups did not differ, however, in how well they learned the game the caregiver was playing with them.

— Heather Kaisner, immunization coordinator for Deschutes County Health Services “We were already looking at expanding those age indications similar to what California did, and then California happened,” said Dr. Jennifer Liang, a CDC epidemiologist. “The process for (the CDC panel) to work through that, it’s a longer process. We’re looking to them to how they’ve expanded the age and how the uptake has been in the state.”

Waning immunity Liang said that pertussis rates rise and fall over time, and outbreaks tend to be cyclical in nature. Every five years or so, pertussis cases spike and more people gain immunity either by catching the disease or through stepped-up immunization campaigns. Then five years later, when their immunity wanes, conditions are ripe for another outbreak.

“The last peak nationwide was in 2005, so it looks like California is on target with their rise

C-reactive protein, both markers for oxidative stress, which damages cells. They also had lower levels of antioxidant vitamins C and E, which helps protect cells from stress.

The findings are evidence of “an underlying detectable abnormality” in the immune systems of people with CFS, the authors said. The finding is intriguing in light of a meeting this week at the National Institutes of Health that is exploring the link between the xenotropic murine leukemia virus (XMLV) and chronic fatigue syndrome.

in cases,” Liang said.

Although doctors try to immunize parents and other adults who will come in contact with a newborn, a concept called cocooning, there are few other reasons an adult might seek a pertussis booster. It’s why when adults do need a tetanus booster, health officials want to make the most of the opportunity. Costs of the shots vary, but in general, Tdap runs about $20 to $30 more than the Td shot.

According to Darin Durham, the emergency room manager at St. Charles Bend, for at least the past six months, all of the ER patients requiring tetanus shots have received Tdap unless they had a contraindication. Bend Memorial Clinic is also suggesting patients get the Tdap shot at their Urgent Care Clinic.

“We offer that as a first recommendation,” said Dr. Randall Jacobs, an urgent care physician at the clinic. “We explain that there are two vaccines available and this is why the Tdap is important, and most people elect it.”

Deschutes County health officials have been taking the Tdap message to doctors, but they’re also hoping to create more awareness among patients.

“From a public health perspective, we’re really trying to get the word out,” Kaisner said.

“Next time you go to the doctor, ask for a Tdap.”

LOS ANGELES — Teenagers with chronic fatigue syndrome may push themselves too hard, which contributes to ongoing fatigue, claim the authors of a new study.

Researchers followed 301 adolescents with mononucleosis, which often precedes chronic fatigue syndrome in teens. They diagnosed 39 teens with chronic fatigue syndrome six months after the mononucleosis diagnosis.

That group of adolescents was compared with 39 of the youths who had mononucleosis but who had recovered fully after six months. The two groups were followed for two more years. At the conclusion of the study, the researchers found no differences between the two groups in the amount of physical activity before, during or after the infection. However, the kids with chronic fatigue syndrome slept much more during the day and had much more fatigue, suggesting they paid a higher price for pushing themselves to stay active and keep up with their peers.

The study, published recently in the Archives of Child & Adolescent Medicine, was accompanied by several other studies on chronic fatigue syndrome in teens, a mysterious and controversial disorder estimated to affect 1.3 percent to 4.4 percent of U.S. adolescents.

In another paper, scientists suggested the importance

of understanding the disorder and providing effective treatment. A study of 54 adolescents with chronic fatigue syndrome showed that about half recovered after two years while the rest were still severely fatigued and physically impaired.

Finally, a third study compared 25 children with chronic fatigue syndrome with 23 healthy kids and found several differences in blood tests between the two groups. The kids with chronic fatigue syndrome had differences in their white blood cells as well as higher levels of cholesterol and

Although pertussis rates in Oregon are low right now, the state has seen rates spike in recent years. And public health officials are closely following a pertussis outbreak in California, where at least nine babies have died since January.

Officials from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said they do not believe the California outbreak is in any way linked to immunization rates among children. More than 83 percent of California children have received the recommended four doses by age 2. (The rates in Oregon and in Deschutes, Jefferson and Crook counties are all over 80 percent as well.)

“We see the principal challenge there is ongoing pertussis transmission in teens and adults, and the very youngest of children, babies under 2 months of age, are the most vulnerable to serious complications of pertussis,” said Dr. Anne Schuchat, director of the CDC’s National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases. “We think that the challenges are increasing vaccination of teens and adults.”

States do not generally track adult immunization rates, so there is little good data in Oregon or elsewhere on how many adults are getting the Td shot when they could be getting Tdap. A yet-to-be-published CDC study found that 61 percent of adults in 2008 had received a tetanus shot within the previous 10 years.

CDC officials have been working with California health departments to ensure that all new parents can get a Tdap shot to avoid spreading the disease to their newborn. And public health officials are expanding the age groups that are eligible to get the pertussis booster. The two Tdap vaccines — Boostrix and Adacel — have been approved only for ages 11 to 64.

California health officials are now giving those shots off-label to seniors over the age of 64 as well as to children starting at age 7.

GlaxoSmithKline and Sanofi Pasteur, which manufacture the Tdap vaccines, are scheduled to present new data on the safety and efficacy of the booster shots in those age groups at the upcoming meeting of the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices at the end of October.

Teens with chronic fatigue may overextend themselves

Microscopic droplets carrying Bordetella pertussis are inhaled.

✁

Continued from F1 In adults, pertussis can result in weeks of coughing, pneumonia, even cracked ribs from violent coughing fits. But most adults will recover with time. It can be much more serious for infants, who don’t receive their first pertussis immunization until they are 2 months old. Even then, infants aren’t fully immunized until they get multiple doses.

Often those infants are exposed to pertussis by adolescents or adults whose protection has waned because they haven’t had a booster shot. Sometimes those adults don’t even know they have pertussis.

“A lot of times, adults and adolescents when they get pertussis, it’s not that serious,” Kaisner said. “By the time they go to the doctor, they’ve had the cough for a long time and the doctors may not think about testing for pertussis.”

F EXERCISE TIPS Core and posture

1

2

No more sit-ups, said Cherie Touchette, a personal trainer at Juniper Swim & Fitness Center who teaches a functional core class there. Instead, Touchette emphasizes moves that teach people to keep their spine correctly aligned while strengthening the abdominal muscles. “It’s all about posture, posture, posture,” she said.

This exercise and all of those in this series work the muscles in the abdomen and the back. They can be done individually or you can combine all nine; this is the first in a series that will run in The Bulletin every other week through January.

How to do it: You’ll need a bar or some sort of straight stick for this exercise; Touchette said even a broomstick will do. Stand up straight and place the bar behind you head, holding it vertically with both hands so it touches your tailbone and the back of your head (1). Hinging forward at the hip, bend forward slightly (2). The key in this move is keeping the bar in contact with your head and tailbone throughout the movement.

Touchette suggests 10 to 20 repetitions for each exercise.

Stretch Continued from F1 What does work best? It’s a matter, Incerta says, of “dynamic vs. static stretching.”

A quick lesson here: Dynamic stretching is basically a foreshadowing of the workout to come — arms in circles if you’re a swimmer, for instance; walking or skipping if you’re a runner; maybe doing knee lifts for other movements.

Static, on the other hand, involves held poses: leaning over an outstretched leg or bending toward the ground for 30 seconds or so.

Until February, triathlete Brett Skyllingstad began his workouts with traditional static stretches.

Then he did some research and learned that muscles aren’t ready for such movement before a workout. Now for 10 minutes before he begins, he focuses on knee lifts, side steps and leg swings.

His post-workout stretches are what his beforehand stretches once were, holding positions for 30 seconds or so.

“I’ve noticed a huge difference,” says Skyllingstad, 26, project manager for a construction company and triathlon coach for Texas Triple Threat. “I don’t start out feeling flat or have that normal 10 minutes of feeling crummy or awkward. It gets your blood moving and flowing, and your heart rate more elevated.”

That gradually increased blood flow is necessary for a successful workout, says Dr. Cindy Trowbridge, associate professor

Cindy Trowbridge demonstrates a static stretch to be done af ter a work out at the U niversity of Texas at Arlington.

Louis DeLuca Dallas Morning News

of kinesiology at the University of Texas at Arlington.

“It’s cardiovascular, getting your heart rate up and your heart warmed up so it’s now going to pump blood to your muscles instead of your organs,” says Trowbridge, clinical education coordinator of UTA’s athletic training education program. “In a resting state, blood is primarily distributed to the organs: the heart, the brain. It’s secluded from the muscles unless you’re using them.”

Warming up with dynamic stretches starts the blood moving from organs to muscles, says physical therapist Spivey, whose practice is SportsCare and Rehabilitation.

Many amateurs, whether running, biking or swimming, just take off and start going, he continues. “They think, ‘I’m healthy now!’ But if you just take off, you can create overuse issues such as

tendonitis or bursitis. It takes longer to strengthen muscles and joints than it does to strengthen your cardiovascular system.”

Incerta likens the warming-up

process to starting a car in the middle of winter.

“It won’t run as efficiently if it’s been sitting in 30-degree weather,” he says. “The gears aren’t going to shift right. But if you turn it on and warm it up for 10 to 15 minutes, it will be fine.

Fluids are going through the pipes. No problems. It’s similar to the central nervous system of the body. If you’re not primed, you’re not ready to actually do physical work. Warming up gets all that fluid going.”

On the other side of the workout is when Trowbridge advocates the stretching we tend to think of when we hear the word.

You’re telling your body the workout’s over, she says. You’re allowing it to rest, to start repairing itself from this workout and to start preparing itself for the next one.

A doctor’s lifestyle matters in counseling patients

By Jeannine Stein Los Angeles Times

The last time you saw your doctor, were you counseled about diet and exercise? If not, it could be because he or she didn’t think they had sufficient training to do so.

In a study published online in the journal Preventive Cardiology, trainee physicians and more experienced attending physicians were asked about their lifestyle habits and also whether they thought they had received adequate training in counseling patients about diet and exercise.

The study participants included 183 doctors, 56 percent of whom were residents or fellows and considered trainees, and 44 percent of whom were attending physicians.

Both groups said they didn’t eat enough fruit and vegetables and got little exercise. Trainees said they ate more fast food than did attending physicians — two fastfood meals per week compared with fewer than one — and they exercised less. Among attending physicians, about 40 percent said they exercised four or more days per week, while only about 10 percent of trainees exercised that much. About 26 percent of attending physicians and about 8 percent of trainees reported getting more than 150 minutes of aerobic exercise per week. Meditation and maintaining a regular yoga practice was a low priority for both.

About 70 percent of attending physicians and 37 percent of trainees said they counseled twothirds or more of their patients about lifestyle behaviors such as nutrition and physical activity.

Both groups said that they counseled patients for less than five minutes per visit. Most doctors in both groups felt ill-prepared to counsel on diet and exercise.

Those who felt most confident about counseling were more likely to exercise more than 150 minutes per week and had sufficient counseling training. But doctors who were overweight were also more self-assured about talking to their patients. In the study, the authors wrote, “Given that a prior study on smoking observed that smoking physicians who were considering quitting themselves were more likely to counsel patients on smoking cessation, we hypothesize that overweight providers who are considering changing their exercise habits may be more likely to counsel their patients regarding exercise.”

A foreclosure sale is scheduled for 1/14/2011. Unless the lender who is foreclosing on this property is paid, the foreclosure will go through and someone new will own this property. The following information applies to you only if you occupy and rent this property as a residential dwelling under a legitimate rental agreement.

The information does not apply to you if you own this property or if you are not a residential tenant. If the foreclosure goes through, the business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale has the right to require you to move out. The buyer must first give you an eviction notice in writing that specifies the date by which you must move out. The buyer may not give you this notice until after the foreclosure sale happens. If you do not leave before the move-out date, the buyer can have the sheriff remove you from the property after a court hearing.

You will receive notice of the court hearing. FEDERAL LAW REQUIRES YOU TO BE NOTIFIED IF YOU ARE OCCUPYING AND RENTING THIS PROPERTY AS A RESIDENTIAL DWELLING UNDER A LEGITIMATE RENTAL AGREEMENT, FEDERAL LAW REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU A NOTICE IN WRITING A CERTAIN NUMBER OF DAYS BEFORE THE BUYER CAN REQUIRE YOU TO MOVE OUT. THE FEDERAL LAW THAT REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU THIS NOTICE IS EFFECTIVE UNTIL DECEMBER 31,2012. Under federal law, the buyer must give you at least 90 days' notice in writing before requiring you to move out. If you are renting this property under a fixed-term lease (for example, a six-month or one-year lease), you may stay until the end of your lease term. If the buyer wants to move in and use this property as the buyer's primary residence, the buyer can give you written notice and require you to move out after 90 days, even if you have a fixed-term lease with more than 90 days left. STATE LAW NOTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS IF THE FEDERAL LAW DOES NOT APPLY, STATE LAW STILL REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU NOTICE IN WRITING BEFORE REQUIRING YOU TO MOVE OUT IF YOU ARE OCCUPYING AND RENTING THE PROPERTY AS A TENANT IN GOOD FAITH. EVEN IF THE FEDERAL LAW REQUIREMENT IS NO LONGER EFFECTIVE AFTER DECEMBER 31,2012, THE REQUIREMENT UNDER STATE LAW STILL APPLIES TO YOUR SITUATION. Under state law, if you have a fixed-term lease (for example, a six-month or one-year lease), the buyer must give you at least 60 days' notice in writing before requiring you to move out. If the buyer wants to move in and use this property as the buyer's primary residence, the buyer can give you written notice and require you to move out after 30 days, even if you have a fixed-term lease with more than 30 days left. If you are renting under a month-to-month or week-to-week rental agreement, the buyer must give you at least 30 days' notice in writing before requiring you to move out. IMPORTANT: For the buyer to be required to give you a notice under state law, you must prove to the business or individual who is handling the foreclosure sale that you are occupying and renting this property as a residential dwelling under a legitimate rental agreement. The name and address of the business or individual who is handling the foreclosure sale is shown on this notice under the heading "TRUSTEE". You must mail or deliver your proof not later than 12/15/2010 (30 days before the date first set for the foreclosure sale). Your proof must be in writing and should be a copy of your rental agreement or lease. If you do not have a written rental agreement or lease, you can provide other proof, such as receipts for rent paid. ABOUT YOUR SECURITY DEPOSIT Under state law, you may apply your security deposit and any rent you paid in advance against the current rent you owe your landlord. To do this, you must notify your landlord in writing that you want to subtract the amount of your security deposit or prepaid rent from your rent payment. You may do this only for the rent you owe your current landlord. If you do this, you must do so before the foreclosure sale. The business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale is not responsible to you for any deposit or prepaid rent you paid to your landlord. ABOUT YOUR TENACY AFTER THE FORECLOSURE SALE The business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale may be willing to allow you to stay as a tenant instead of requiring you to move out. You should contact the buyer to discuss that possibility if you would like to stay. Under state law, if the buyer accepts rent from you, signs a new residential rental agreement with you or does not notify you in writing within 30 days after the date of the foreclosure sale that you must move out, the buyer becomes your new landlord and must maintain the property. Otherwise, the buyer is not your landlord and is not responsible for maintaining the property on your behalf and you must move out by the date the buyer specifies in a notice to you. YOU SHOULD CONTINUE TO PAY RENT TO YOUR LANDLORD UNTIL THE PROPERTY IS SOLD TO ANOTHER BUSINESS OR INDIVIDUAL OR UNTIL A COURT OR A LENDER TELLS YOU OTHERWISE. IF YOU DO NOT PAY RENT, YOU CAN BE EVICTED. AS EXPLAINED ABOVE, YOU MAY BE ABLE TO APPLY A DEPOSIT OR RENT YOU PREPAID AGAINST YOUR CURRENT RENT OBLIGATION. BE SURE TO KEEP PROOF OF ANY PAYMENTS YOU MAKE AND OF ANY NOTICE YOU GIVE OR RECEIVE CONCERNING THE APPLICATION OF YOUR DEPOSIT OR PREPAID RENT. IT IS UNLAWFUL FOR ANY PERSON TO TRY TO FORCE YOU TO LEAVE YOUR HOME WITHOUT FIRST GOING TO COURT TO EVICT YOU. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR RIGHTS, YOU MAY WISH TO CONSULT A LAWYER.
