OREGON’S ‘KICKER’ LAW

Aspen Lakes to file Chapter 11 Despite state’s Holding company that owns land under $3B shortfall, corporate tax refunds await

By Nick Budnick The Bulletin

SALEM — If state projections hold steady, Oregon will refund nearly $24 million in corporate taxes even as a projected tax shortfall has lawmakers planning roughly $3 billion in cuts to the budget for prisons, social services and schools.

And if that seeming non sequitur makes you scratch your head, you now know why Sen. Chris Telfer, R-Bend, is ready to do what some Republicans would consider unthinkable.

“We may not win a lot of votes on this, I may lose a few constituents,” she said. “But I just think IN THE it’s the right thing to do.”

LEGISLATURE Telfer is ready to sign on with Democrats and some other Republican lawmakers to reform Oregon’s unique tax rebate law, called the “kicker.”

Besieged by rising property taxes, voters approved the government-spending curb in 1980 and then put it into the state Constitution in 2000. The kicker law requires that if either the state’s corporate or personal income tax revenue in a twoyear budget cycle exceed expectations by 2 percent, anything above that will be “kicked” back to taxpayers.

Sisters golf course set to restructure debt

By Zack Hall The Bulletin

The holding company that owns the clubhouse and land under Aspen Lakes Golf Course in Sisters is planning to file for

Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection this week.

Wildhorse Meadows LLC, which is owned by Sisters’ Cyrus family, is expected to file Thursday to allow the company to re-

structure $4.6 million in debt, coowner Matt Cyrus said Tuesday.

The Cyrus family also owns the golf course, which does business as a separate entity, Aspen Lakes Golf Course LLC. Wildhorse Meadows acts as Aspen Lakes’ landlord.

“This gives us stability and the ability to move forward and know where we are at for

the summer,” Cyrus said of the bankruptcy filing.

Chapter 11 will allow the golf course and restaurant to continue with “business as usual,” Cyrus said, adding that he hopes a reorganization plan is in place by midsummer. Golfers should not notice a difference in the course’s operation this season, he said.

Jefferson County officials say nearly $8,000 missing from an inmate trust fund is still unaccounted for and may remain that way due to poor bookkeeping at the Jefferson County Treasurer’s Office.

When people are arrested and placed in the jail, their money is collected and placed into accounts that they can use for items for sale inside the jail. Friends and family can also put money into the account of an inmate.

Over the course of three years, a sum of $7,993 is unaccounted for from the account.

Jefferson County Commission Chair Mike Ahern said county staff has done their best to account for the missing funds but poor record keeping has them without any leads to follow.

“It’s a big deal to us but the truth is it’s just missing,” Ahern said. “We had the Department of Justice look at the situation but they found nothing. The records system is so bad that it’s hard to tell where it is or went.”

You are told that to make it in life, you must go to college. You work hard to get there. You or your parents drain savings or take out huge loans to pay for it all.

And you end up learning ... not much.

A study of more than 2,300 undergraduates found 45 percent of students show no significant improvement in the key measures of critical thinking, complex reasoning and writing by the end of their sophomore years.

Not much is asked of students, either. Half did not take a single course requiring 20 pages of writing during their prior semester, and one-third did not take a single course requiring even 40 pages of reading per week.

The findings are in a new book, “Academically Adrift: Limited Learning on College Campuses,” by sociologists Richard Arum of New York University and Josipa Roksa of the University of Virginia. An accompanying report argues against federal mandates holding schools accountable, a prospect long feared in American higher education.

Researchers are reporting major advances toward resolving two underlying problems involving Alzheimer’s disease: How do you know if someone who is demented has it?

And how can you screen the general population to see who is at risk?

One study, reported in The New York Times in June, evaluated a new type of brain scan that can detect plaques that are uniquely character-

istic of Alzheimer’s disease.

On Thursday, an advisory committee to the Food and Drug Administration will review it and make a recommendation on whether to approve the test for marketing.

The second study asked whether a blood test could detect beta amyloid, the protein fragment that makes up Alzheimer’s plaque, and whether blood levels of beta amyloid were associated with a risk of memory problems. The answer was yes, but the test

is not ready to be used for screening.

Both studies are to be published in The Journal of the American Medical Association today.

“These are two very important papers, and I don’t always say that,” said Neil Buckholtz, chief of the Dementias of Aging Branch of the National Institute on Aging.

The new brain scan involved a dye developed by Avid Radiopharmaceuticals, now owned by Eli Lilly.

Jefferson County Sheriff Jim Adkins said the money is collected by his office and then delivered to the Treasurer’s Office to be managed.

When he took office last year, a county staff member brought the missing funds to his attention and he asked the Department of Justice to investigate the office of Jefferson County Treasurer Deena Goss.

“There was a discrepancy in the funds,” Adkins said. “I asked them to look at both the Treasurer’s Office and at our own office.

Since the treasurer is an elected official, we needed to get the DOJ involved.”

On Oct. 19, 2010 the Department of Justice wrote to Adkins saying: “There is insufficient evidence to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Deena Goss committed any crimes.

Correction In an article headlined “Merkley proposes mortgage change,” which appeared on Tuesday, Jan. 18, on page A1, a quote by Saadia McConville, of Economic Fairness Oregon, that “It’s going to be tough to get the banks to sign on to that,” was attributed to the wrong person. Additionally, McConville said she was referring to only a portion of Merkley’s proposal, not the plan as a whole.

HUARAZ, Peru — Glacier melt hasn’t caused a national crisis in Peru, yet. But high in the Andes, rising temperatures and changes in water supply over the past 40 years have decimated crops, killed fish stocks and forced villages to question how they will survive for another generation.

Without international help to build reservoirs and dams and improve irrigation, the South American nation could become a case study in how climate change can destabilize a strategically important region, according to Peruvian, U.S. and other officials.

“Think what it would be like if the Andes glaciers were gone and we had millions and millions of hungry and thirsty southern neighbors,” said former CIA director R. James Woolsey.

Peru is home to 70 percent of the world’s tropical glaciers, which are also found in Bolivia, Ecuador and Chile. Peru’s 18 mountain glaciers, including the world’s largest tropical ice mass, are critical to the region’s water sources for drinking, irrigation and electricity.

Glaciers in the South American Andes are melting faster than many scientists predicted; some experts on climate change estimate entire glaciers across the Andes will disappear in 10 years because of rising global temperatures, creating instability across the globe as they melt.

If Peru and its allies do not fund and create projects to conserve water, improve decrepit water infrastructure and regulate runoff from glaciers within five years, the disappearance of Andean glaciers could lead to social and economic disaster, said Alberto Hart, climate-change adviser at Peru’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

“This will become a problem for the United States,” he said.

“When you have a dysfunctional country, you have a problem for the entire region.”

Ice has been diminishing from Peru’s Huascaran Mountain. problem is adaptation to rapid glacier melt, Hart said.

The U.S. Agency for International Development, which administers the majority of climate funds, recently received a $1.25 million grant to work with the Mountain Institute, a Peruvian nonprofit organization, through 2012 and assist mountain communities in adapting to glacier melt.

“It will take more resources than are currently available ... but the trend is going in the right direction,” said Steve Olive with USAID in Peru.

The Peruvian government is asking Washington and other allies for at least $350 million every year through 2030 to build reservoirs and dams, and improve irrigation, said Hart.

Japan, Australia and Switzerland also have offered assistance for climate change, Hart said.

The World Bank is also working in Peru to monitor water supplies and implement drought-resistant agriculture, part of a larger climate-change project that includes several Andean nations, according to Walter Vergara, a World Bank engineer who started the project in 2004.

But Peruvian officials say the United States has a majority share of the responsibility to help Peru because of the close trade alliance between the two nations, and because the United States is the world’s second-largest emitter of greenhouse gases.

“We are knocking on many doors, and obviously the U.S. is one big door we are knocking on,” Hart said.

Bolivia and Ecuador are also threatened by glacier melt, and Colombia’s coastal and riverside cities are being wiped out by floods and landslides — disasters that are only expected to get worse, according to a study by the Pew Center on Climate Change.

Climate change is “a signifi-

cant threat” to the region, and the United States must “really come to terms” with the security challenges it poses, Assistant Secretary of State for the Western Hemisphere Arturo Valenzuela said recently.

Water sources in peril Its ice is melting, but the majesty of Huascaran Mountain hasn’t diminished. Its white peak still pierces the clouds on an overcast day in the Cordillera Blanca, part of the Andes range that stretches through Peru’s northwest region of Ancash.

Communities revere Huascaran, Peru’s tallest mountain, for its beauty and its water that allows them to survive the extreme terrain. But over the past 20 years, they’ve watched Huascaran’s glacier diminish.

“It used to take you two or three hours walking to reach the ice. But now you have to walk five, six hours to reach ice,” said Maximo Juan Malpaso Carranza, a farmer in Utupampa, a small community high in the Cordillera Blanca.

“We all get water from there,” he said, pointing to Huascaran.

“But if the ice disappears, there won’t be any more water.”

More than 2 million people, stretching from the Andes to the coastal cities, get their drinking water and irrigation from rivers fed by glacier runoff from Cordillera Blanca. But research by Cesar Portocarrero, the Peruvian government’s lead glacier scientist, shows the Cordillera Blanca has lost 30 percent of its glaciers since 1970.

Most of Peru’s agriculture is fed by water from the Andes.

Glacier-fed rivers also support the nation’s largest hydroelectric plants. Lima, the world’s second-largest desert city, is almost totally dependent on Andean

ARGEN.

rivers from the Cordillera Central, where some mountains have lost more than 60 percent of their glaciers in the last 40 years.

Water conflicts have been frequent in southern Peru over the past few years, and glacier melt will create even more across the country, and, in extreme cases, spreading to neighboring countries, retired Maj. Gen. Luis Palomino Rodriguez, head of Peru’s National Civil Defense Institute, said in an interview.

The Pentagon is starting to address the impacts of climate change. It gave the Southern Command, in charge of Latin America, $600,000 to develop a mapping tool that will allow Latin America and the United States to share information about climate-change risks.

It is also spending $1.4 million to study the effects of warming on foreign military bases.

SouthCom will release a new environmental security strategy in the next couple months, but the military is far from integrating its climate-change studies into operations.

“We have a lot to do,” said Myrna Lopez, environmental security expert with SouthCom. “We’re not there yet where we have a complete buy-in from the DoD that this is a core military role.”

Peru has taken steps, but lacks resources. It created a national strategy on climate change in 2003 and has set up a Ministry of Environment with oversight of climate change programs. Officials are working with USAID and nonprofit organizations to build reservoirs in Andean communities and monitor water flow from the glaciers.

“We may think that current wait-and-see policies are adequate to the task,” said Chad Briggs, Minerva chair of energy and environmental security with the U.S. Air Force. “Peru may be a looming example of how that is not the case.”

MEGA MILLIONS The numbers drawn are:

Nobody won the jackpot Tuesday night in the Mega Millions game, pushing the estimated jackpot to $40 million for Friday’s drawing.

ORLANDO, Fla. — In the Atlantic Ocean off Florida’s coast, at 1,500 feet and deeper, the water is 45 degrees and pitch-black.

Yet life thrives there.

Scientists are just beginning to explore this vast secret of the deep sea: extensive coral reefs and the marine creatures that live there because of them.

A recent scientific mission explored more than 800 square miles of ocean off Florida, confirming the existence of several deep-water reefs and charting new sites.

Like the corals found in shallow, tropical reefs, deep-sea corals help form habitat for crabs, shrimp, fish and other marine life. Growing from the seafloor, the corals have produced massive cliffs through the centuries as new generations of coral grow atop the old.

Scientists already know that deep-water corals attract commercially important fish, offering protection for the young and places to reproduce for sea bass, snapper, porgy and rock shrimp.

Unlike the easily accessible tropical coral reefs, however, these deeper corals have many unknowns. Scientists suspect massive mounds of the corals are still undiscovered and that the habitats are vital to the overall health of marine life. Exactly what role the reefs play for the survival of fish populations and the benefit of people is unknown.

• Attract commercially important fish • Offer protection for the young • Provide places for popular seafood species to reproduce

National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration via The Associated Press

Deep-sea Primnoa coral can be found in Olympic Coast National Marine Sanctuary off the northwest coast of Washington.

There are a few tantalizing possibilities, though. Early studies indicate that some species found only on deep-sea coral reefs have possible medical uses. A unique sponge, for example, is being used in cancer treatment studies.

But first, researchers are still trying to answer basic questions such as: What is down there?

And what lives there?

“With every expedition, every time we dive, we find more and more coral,” said Steve Ross, a University of North Carolina-Wilmington professor and the expedition’s chief scientist.

“These coral reefs are extremely diverse and abundant and widely

distributed.”

Research about the deep reefs off the Southeastern U.S. started in earnest only a decade ago, but the reefs are already federally protected. Officials declared more than 23,000 square miles of ocean off-limits to bottom trawling, a fishing practice that has destroyed similar reef systems off the European coast. Only one commercialfishing group, a small outfit that catches golden crab, continues to trap the crustacean among the deep-sea corals, and it works with federal managers to limit the impact on the reefs.

For scientists, just reaching the reefs is a big obstacle because

the corals thrive in depths of 1,300 feet to 3,200 feet, well beyond diving range for humans.

Ross and Andrew David, a research-fishery biologist with NOAA Fisheries, said the Jason II proved invaluable in helping scientists advance their research into the corals.

“Sonar had suggested there was more coral, and we were able to confirm that,” David said. “There are several ongoing studies ... trying to age the corals using radioactive-carbon dating, which suggests some of these reefs are 2,000 years old.”

And with many hours of video and other data collected, and with rare samples taken from the reef, Ross said some of the greatest insights are yet to come.

“It may be years before the data can be analyzed and some of the big picture comes out,” Ross said. “But it’s so difficult to study these reefs that every cruise we can take, we learn a lot.”

McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Sometimes, seemingly small numbers can have remarkably big consequences. Miss a single free throw, and your team loses the championship. The economy slows by a few percent, and millions of Americans are out of work. Your temperature rises by a degree or two, and you are down and out with a fever.

Nowhere, however, are the big consequences of little numbers becoming clearer than in the health of our oceans. There, a chemical shift of just 0.1 – that’s right, just one-tenth of a point — is already causing “ocean acidification,” a massive, fundamental change that has enormous implications for marine life.

It may seem like this shift is no big deal. Don’t buy it: It’s actually another example of why seemingly little things do matter — and why the United States and other nations that attended the big climate change conference in Mexico last month need to do more to curb global warming.

If you can’t recall your chemistry, here’s how it all works: Since the dawn of the Industrial Revolution, we’ve been burning enormous quantities of coal, oil and other fossil fuels. That has released vast clouds of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, where it has become the main gas that is warming the planet.

Luckily for us, the oceans absorb about 30 million tons of carbon dioxide every day, slowing the pace of warming. Unfortunately, when carbon dioxide mixes with seawater, it spurs chemical reactions that can make the water more acidic, lowering what scientists call “the pH.” Just a few hundred years ago, the sea’s pH was typically about 8.2. Today, due to all the carbon dioxide we’ve spewed into the atmosphere, it is about 8.1.

It may seem that such a small change wouldn’t create a big problem, and that ocean ecosystems will cope just fine. The sad reality is that ocean acidification is a bigger problem than the number suggests. One reason is that, due to the way pH scales work, a 0.1 drop in pH is actually a 26 percent increase in acidity.

Another is that this acidification has occurred with “startling” rapidity, scientists say — perhaps 100 times faster than anything Earth’s sea life has experienced in millions of years.

Most worrying is that many living things are remarkably sensitive to rising acidity. If acid levels in our blood rise by 26 percent, for instance, we can become very sick indeed. Many kinds of sea creatures are equally vulnerable, especially in their egg and larval stages. And acidification can make it impossible for organisms such as corals, clams and crabs to sustain their hard skeletons and shells, since acids are corrosive and the acidification process can lock up the molecules they use as raw materials.

These aren’t just theoretical threats. Already, ocean scientists are seeing just the kind of corrosive effects you would expect from acidification. Last year, for instance, one team reported in the journal Science that coral growth along Australia’s Great Barrier Reef had declined by 14 percent since 1990 — a “severe and sudden decline” unseen in centuries. Other studies have found that the shells of some “forams” — tiny creatures that are a key part of the marine food chain — are 30 percent lighter today than they were in the past.

These trends give a whole new meaning to the phrase “bad chemistry.” But things could get worse. Researchers have calculated that ocean pH will fall to about 7.8 by the end of the century, if we don’t act soon to curb our carbon dioxide emissions. That is a four-tenths pH drop from preindustrial levels — or a whopping 150 percent increase in acidity.

Our seas haven’t been that acidic in tens of millions of years.

Andrew Sharpless is CEO of Oceana, an international ocean conservation group.

T S Health care debate resumes, with new tone

By Shailagh Murray and N.C. Aizenman The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — This time around, there were no frightening warnings about “death panels” for the elderly or a “holocaust” of uninsured Americans.

Returning to official business Tuesday for the time since the tragedy in Tucson, the House took up a contentious issue certain to test lawmakers’ powers of restraint: health care reform.

Republicans promised during

the 2010 campaign to dismantle President Obama’s signature domestic policy initiative, but now, in the transformed political environment of the past 10 days, the debate has come to represent a civility test for elected officials.

And sure enough, the opening hours of debate on H.R. 2, “Repealing the Job-Killing Health Care Law Act,” were free of the apocalyptic rhetoric that defined last year’s campaigns.

Rep. Ken Calvert, R-Calif., conceded on the House floor that

“Obamacare,” however flawed, was “well intentioned.”

For lawmakers in both parties, the sudden outbreak of collegiality represented an opportunity to prove to the public, and one another, that the slashand-burn style that has defined House discourse lately is not the only way to conduct the nation’s business.

“This new law is a fiscal house of cards,” said Budget Committee Chairman Paul D. Ryan, R-Wis., the first Republican

to speak, setting the tone for the next 2½ hours. Rep. Chris Van Hollen D-Md., the ranking Democrat on the panel, replied politely, “Perhaps this debate will clear up many of the myths and misinformation.”

Hardly anyone cited the bill’s formal title, with its mention of “killing,” after the House clerk read it into the record at the start of the debate. Even outside groups, known for issuing blunt appeals to supporters, kept their rhetoric to a simmer.

Students wounded at school after gun in backpack fires

By Sam Allen, Mitchell Landsberg and Andrew Blankstein Los Angeles Times

GARDENA, Calif. — Thirdperiod health class was just beginning Tuesday at Gardena High School when a 17-year-old boy walked in and set his backpack down on a desk. In the chaos that followed, accounts differered about precisely what happened. But this much was clear: A gun had discharged, apparently by accident; two students were wounded, one critically; and the Los Angeles-area campus of 3,100 was sent into a tense, frightening lockdown.

“Wow, someone just got shot in the classroom,” student Dan Im wrote from the scene in a profanity-laced, Korean-language Twitter feed. “I’m freaked out.”

After about an hour, police found and arrested the boy suspected of having brought the gun into the class.

Meanwhile, the two wound-

No fifth term for Lieberman New York Times News Service Sen. Joseph Lieberman of Connecticut, the Democratic vice presidential candidate in 2000 who later became deeply alienated from his party, will announce today that he will not seek a fifth term, according to people he told of the decision.

Lieberman, 68, whose term is up in 2012, has chosen to retire rather than face a difficult campaign for re-election, according to aides and others who spoke to the senator Tuesday.

“He believes that if he were to run for reelection it’d be a tough fight,” Sen. Joseph said Marshall Lieberman, W i t t m a n n , I-Conn. a member of Lieber ma n’s Senate staff. “He’s confident he could’ve won that fight. He’s had tough fights before. But he wants to have a new chapter in his life.”

News of Lieberman’s plans broke on the same day that Kent Conrad, the Democratic senator from North Dakota, announced he would retire.

Democrats say that the decision by Lieberman, who is an Independent, increases the likelihood that their party will capture his seat next year. Among other things, Democrats noted that President Barack Obama, who won Connecticut overwhelmingly in 2008, will be on the ballot in 2012.

Connecticut voters once embraced Lieberman, the son of a liquor store owner who entered politics as a reform-minded Democrat in 1970, for his folksy ways and his common-sense approach to issues. But he repeatedly broke with his party during the past decade, and the political climate in the state had grown increasingly unwelcoming to him.

ed students, both 15, had been rushed to Harbor-UCLA Medical Center, where a girl who had been shot in the head underwent lengthy surgery. She was in critical condition with a skull fracture and brain trauma. A boy who had been shot in the neck was listed as stable, his wound not considered life-threatening.

Police said the two might have been struck by a single bullet.

Friends of the suspect said he was not known as a violent boy, but had brought the gun to school for his own protection.

“I think he was just scared,” classmate Para Ross said, “Scared of what was going to happen when he left school and took the bus home. There are a lot of gangs around here. People are dying.”

The boy was interviewed by police detectives Tuesday afternoon.

Exiled leader charged with corruption, held briefly in Haiti

By Ginger Thompson New York Times News Service

PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti — Haitian prosecutors presented formal charges of corruption and embezzlement against former dictator JeanClaude Duvalier on Tuesday, raising the level of uncertainty surrounding his abrupt emergence from exile this week. The case involves acts that he is accused of committing before fleeing the country nearly 25 years ago.

The case was presented at the end of a dramatic day during which Duvalier, one of Haiti’s most polarizing figures, was escorted by armed police officers out of his hotel as clusters of supporters shouted in outrage, calling for “revolution” and threatening to burn the country down.

Duvalier, 59, wearing a pinstriped suit and looking fragile, waved back with one hand while he held onto his companion, Veronique Roy, with the other.

its way downtown, Duvalier’s supporters cheered from the roadside. The crowds eventually thinned, and Duvalier arrived at a courthouse without further incident.

He was released four hours later but was ordered to remain in Haiti while a judge considered whether there was sufficient evidence to send Duvalier to trial.

Gervais Charles, a lawyer representing Duvalier, said in an interview that the day’s events were part of a “political show.”

He said that the bulk of the charges against Duvalier stem from the $4.6 million that Duvalier’s family held in Swiss bank accounts. Swiss authorities were prepared to release that money to Duvalier in 2008, Charles said, but authorities in Haiti filed a legal claim. They contended that the money was part of the hundreds of millions of dollars that they believed that Duvalier had embezzled from the government.

Until Tuesday, Duvalier had not been seen in public since his surprise return to the country from exile near Paris.

Attorney general expects court to void election New York Times News Service KABUL, Afghanistan — Afghanistan’s attorney general expressed hope on Tuesday that a special court appointed by the president to look into election fraud would throw out the results of the country’s parliamentary elections, and predicted that the court would delay this week’s planned inauguration of a new Parliament.

Speaking in an interview, Mohammed Ishaq Aloko, the attorney general and a strong supporter of President Hamid Karzai, said his investigation of the September parliamen-

tary elections uncovered such widespread fraud that the results should be annulled. Although the decision was up to the special court, he said invalidating the election seemed the most plausible step.

It was not clear, however, that the winning candidates would accept the judgment of a special court whose legality had been called into question by numerous Afghan officials, international observers, opposition politicians and human rights activists.

Many have denounced the court as way for Karzai to re-engineer the results to get a more supportive Parliament.

ter 10:30 a.m. on the large, onestory campus. According to police and Los Angeles Unified School District officials, the 17-year-old came into the classroom, set his backpack on a desk or table, and a gun inside it discharged.

However, a student who was in the class, Miguel Lopez, 17, said the boy was reaching into the pack when the gun went off. In another version, the gun discharged when the boy leaned on the backpack.

WASHINGTON — A year ago, the fight over how China’s cheap currency was hurting U.S. companies in marketplaces at home and abroad was shaping up to be the epic battle between the world’s biggest power and its biggest economic rival.

But when President Hu Jintao walks into the Eisenhower Executive Office Building with President Barack Obama today to face a group of 18 U.S. and Chinese business leaders, much of the clash will be about a new economic battlefield — inside China itself.

A series of trade restrictions imposed by the Chinese government within China, including administrative controls, requirements to transfer sophisticated technology, state subsidies to favored domestic companies and so-called indigenous laws meant to favor homegrown businesses, have angered many U.S. manufacturing and high-tech companies, which are rapidly finding themselves cut out of the world’s fastest growing market.

The result is that the two countries have to resolve a wider range of economic tensions, including what U.S. multinational corporations see as a deteriorating environment for investing and making money in what has become the world’s second-largest economy.

Now the question — reminiscent of trade tensions with Japan in the 1980s — is whether General Electric and Microsoft and other U.S. companies that dearly want to expand into China’s rapidly expanding markets will find themselves beat at their own game by Chinese companies, backed by the Chinese government, “competing at every point in the technology spectrum,” said Eswar Shanker Prasad, a former economist with the International Monetary Fund.

For Obama, the shift give him stronger backing from U.S. businesses for a tougher approach to China when he sits down with Hu. The Chinese president arrived in Washington on Tuesday afternoon for two days of highlevel meetings that began with a private dinner at the White House on Tuesday evening.

ARIZONA SHOOTINGS

Vatican warned bishops on abuse policy

By Laurie Goodstein New York Times News Service

A newly disclosed document reveals that Vatican officials told the bishops of Ireland in 1997 that they had serious reservations about the bishops’ policy of mandatory reporting of priests suspected of child abuse to the police or civil authorities.

The document appears to contradict Vatican claims that church leaders in Rome never sought to control the actions of local bishops in abuse cases, and that the Roman Catholic Church did not impede criminal investigations of child abuse suspects.

Abuse victims in Ireland and the United States quickly proclaimed the document to be a “smoking gun” that would serve as important evidence in lawsuits against the Vatican.

“The Vatican is at the root of this problem,” said Colm O’Gorman, an outspoken victim of abuse in Ireland who is now director of Amnesty International there. “Any suggestion that they have not deliberately and willfully been instructing bishops not to report priests to appropriate civil authorities is now proven to be ridiculous.”

But a spokesman for the Vatican said that the document, while authentic, was further proof that past missteps on handling sexual abuse allegations were reformed

by Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, a top official in the Vatican before he became the current pope, Benedict XVI. The document, a two-page letter, was first revealed by the Irish broadcaster RTE and obtained

by The Associated Press.

The letter was written just after a first wave of scandal over sexual abuse by priests in Irish Catholic schools and other facilities — a scandal so big it brought down the Irish government in 1994.

By 1996, an advisory committee of Irish bishops had drawn up a new policy that included “mandatory reporting” of suspected abusers to civil authorities. The letter, signed by Archbishop Luciano Storero, told the Irish bishops that the Vatican had reservations about mandatory reporting for both “moral and canonical” reasons. Storero died in 2000.

The letter said that bishops who failed to follow canon law procedures precisely might find that their decisions to defrock abusive clerics would be overturned on appeal by Vatican courts.

Alzheimer’s Continued from A1 The dye attaches to plaque in patients’ brains, making it visible on PET scans.

The study by Avid involved 152 people nearing the end of life who agreed to have a brain scan and a brain autopsy after they died. The investigators wanted to know whether the scans would show the same plaques as the autopsies.

Twenty-nine of the patients in the study died and had brain autopsies. In 28 of them, the scan matched the autopsy results. Alzheimer’s had been diagnosed in half of the 29 patients; the others had received other diagnoses.

One subject who was thought to have had Alzheimer’s did not have plaques on the scans or on the autopsy — the diagnosis was incorrect. Two other patients with dementia turned out to have had Alzheimer’s although they had received diagnoses of other diseases.

The study also included 74 younger and healthier people who underwent the scans.

They were not expected to have plaques, and in fact they did not.

If the FDA approves the scan, medical experts said they would use it to help determine whether a patient with dementia had Alzheimer’s. If no plaques were found, they would have to consider other diagnoses.

The Avid scan will also be used — and is being used — by companies that are testing drugs to remove amyloid from the brain. The scans can show if the drugs are working. And a large study sponsored in part by the National Institute on Aging is scanning healthy people and fol-

More officials quit in Tunisia amid protests

By David D. Kirkpatrick and Kareem Fahim New York Times News Service

TUNIS, Tunisia — The new unity government of Tunisia tottered Tuesday as at least four cabinet members resigned after street protests erupted over its continued domination by members of the ruling party of the ousted dictator, Zine el-Abidine Ben Ali. The resignations compounded the pressure on Prime Minister Mohamed Ghannouchi, previously the right-hand man to Ben Ali, to resign as well.

As the evening curfew approached in Tunis, the new government, backed by the military and a tiny group of recognized opposition leaders, seemed caught in a war on two fronts. On one side were Ben Ali’s former security forces, which the government has accused of continued acts of violence.

On the other it was battling to hold the loyalties of

grass-roots protesters in the streets, who demanded a faster and more radical purge of the old government.

“You sympathize with the current government,” one woman shouted, expressing a common sentiment. “How are you supposed to represent the people?”

Some opposition leaders expressed fears that a collapse of the interim coalition — it would be the third rapid-fire turnover of power within less than a week — could trigger a military takeover.

Yet, as the police moved forcefully to break up the demonstrations, many protesters said they thought they had much more to fear from the former ruling party, RCD, than they did from the Tunisian military, a traditionally apolitical force.

There was also a looming wild card: the revival of the banned Islamist party. The government said that for now it would continue to block the return of the party’s exiled founder, while he repeated that his party espouses a moderate pluralism.

Mexican gang kingpin arrested

By Randal C. Archibold MEXICO CITY — A man who helped start one of Mexico’s most notorious criminal organizations has been arrested, adding to the list of highprofile kingpins the police and the military have arrested or killed in the past year.

The federal police said they arrested Flavio Mendez Santiago — known as El Amarillo, or the yellow one — on Monday outside Oaxaca, the capital of Oaxaca State in southwest Mexico.

A police statement said Santiago, 35, directed operations in three southern states for the group, Los Zetas, which origi-

nated in the early 1990s as a collection of former soldiers serving as enforcers for the Gulf Cartel.

The Zetas are best known for beheading rivals and are suspected in the disappearance of dozens of migrants who investigators believe may have been victims of extortion as they made their way to the United States from Central and South America. The gang’s top leader, Heriberto Lazcano, remains at large.

Santiago — who is accused of killing several rivals, orchestrating a jailbreak and expanding the gang into Guatemala — was No. 29 on Mexico’s most wanted list. Officials said 20 of the 37 people on the list had been caught or killed in the past year.

lowing them to see if the scans predict the risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease.

The other study, on a blood test for Alzheimer’s, indicates that such a test may work. But researchers agree that it is not ready for clinical use.

The study, by Dr. Kristine Yaffe of the University of California, San Francisco, and the San Francisco Veterans Affairs Medical Center, included 997 subjects whose average age was 74 when the study began. They were followed for nine years and given memory tests and a blood test looking for beta amyloid.

Beta amyloid, which is in the brain, flows into the spinal fluid. From there, it can enter the bloodstream. When amyloid accumulates in plaque, its levels in spinal fluid go down. That indicates risk for Alzheimer’s disease.

Yaffe and her colleagues asked whether they could show similar Alzheimer’s risk by measuring beta amyloid levels in blood. It is difficult; amyloid levels in blood are much lower than in spinal fluid. And there appear to be other sources of amyloid in blood, confounding the test results.

“I was interested in the blood test because I think it’s been given a bit of a write-off,” Yaffe said. Some studies concluded that it worked, but just as many said that it did not. She wanted to try again with a large study following people for a long period and using a sensitive test for amyloid.

She divided the subjects into groups and found that those with the most amyloid had the lowest risk of a decline in their mental abilities, and those with the least had the greatest risk. But other factors also played a role. Low

levels of the protein were not as useful in predicting mental decline in people who had more education and were more literate.

People with a gene, APO e4, that is associated with an increased risk of Alzheimer’s, seemed to be at a greater risk of a mental decline even if their blood levels of amyloid were high.

That does not necessarily mean that the more people use their minds the more they will be protected from Alzheimer’s disease, researchers note. But, Yaffe said, that idea needs more study.

The test’s precision, said Dr. Clifford Jack of the Mayo Clinic, was “not crisp enough” to accurately predict whether an individual was likely to show an intellectual decline over the decade after the test was given.

Still, said Dr. Ronald Petersen, chairman of the medical and scientific advisory council of the Alzheimer’s Association, there is an increasing need for such a test. If treatments are developed to slow or stop the disease, it will be important to start them before irreversible damage is done.

Current tests of Alzheimer’s risk — spinal taps and MRI and PET scans — are not suitable to screen large numbers of people.

“They are either expensive or invasive, or both,” Petersen said.

“We need a cheap and safe population screening tool, like cholesterol for cardiology.”

A blood test could be ideal, and this study is an encouraging step forward, he said. The idea might be to screen with such a test and then follow up with those who test positive, giving them a PET scan, for example.

But, Petersen said, “this study is not sufficiently convincing that this is the answer.”

New York Times News Service

TUCSON, Ariz. — The chief investigator for the sheriff’s department here has for the first time publicly described the brief and gory video clip from a store security camera that shows a gunman not only shooting Rep. Gabrielle Giffords just above the eyebrow at a range of three feet but then using his 9-millimeter pistol to gun down others near her at a similarly close range.

The video, according to Richard Kastigar, the investigative and operational bureau chief of the Pima County Sheriff’s Department, also reveals that Judge John Roll appears to have died while helping to save the life of Ronald Barber, one of Giffords’ employees.

Barber, who was near Giffords when he was shot twice, has since left the hospital.

Kastigar said the video

Treasurer Continued from A1 “It is highly suspicious that accounting problems arise exclusively when Goss handles cash,” the letter from Department of Justice Chief Counsel Sean Riddell said.

“This suspicion is fueled by the fact that every time there is a discrepancy regarding cash and Goss, money is missing, as opposed to extra funds.”

The report goes on to state that the missing cash “is so minimal, it is more consistent with accounting errors than theft.”

The report also states Goss claimed she delivered ledger reports to the Sheriff’s Office while the Sheriff’s Office staff disputes that claim.

“Goss asserts, and there is insufficient evidence to refute,

shows Giffords standing with her back a few inches from the wall when she was shot by the gunman, who approached in “a hurried fashion” with the gun at his side and then raised it and fired a single bullet above her eye at a range of no more than 2 or 3 feet.

Jared Loughner, 22, has been arrested in the shootings. The pistol “is down near his right side, but it is visibly out from where he was keeping it, presumably under his clothing, and then he raises it and fires,” Kastigar said. “It happens in a matter of seconds.”

The gunman “was very deliberate in my estimation, very calculated,” said Kastigar, who viewed the video as part of the extensive investigation by the Sheriff’s Department that involves close to 250 people. The video, he said, is now in the custody of the FBI. In describing the video, the most detailed account yet of the initial five-second burst of fire, Kastigar said Roll was “intentionally trying to help Mr. Barber,”

adding, “It’s very clear to me the judge was thinking of his fellow human more than himself.”

The judge guides Barber to the ground, shields him with his body, and then tries to push both of them away from the gunman, who was no more than three to four feet away as he fired at both men, Kastigar said.

“He pushes Mr. Barber with his right hand and guides him with his left hand. The judge was on top of him and is covering up Mr. Barber, literally lying on top of him, and his back was exposed,” Kastigar said.

The judge was shot in the back. More than a dozen video clips recorded from cameras at the scene and recovered from the hard drive of a security system at the Safeway grocery store outside which the shootings occurred Jan. 8 provide other new information about the minutes before the shootings, which left six dead and 13 wounded, including Giffords.

that at times accounting reports were not created/preserved by the Sheriff’s Office,” the report said. “As the county Treasurer, it was Goss’ responsibility to document this error and correct it. Instead, she asserts that she simply ‘assumed’ all money was properly accounted for. Rather than criminal intent, this error in basic accounting could explain the cash discrepancies.”

Messages left for Goss at her office and home seeking comment were not returned as of Tuesday night.

Ahern said the county has now taken steps to make sure the same mistakes are not repeated.

“With the help of our audit-

ing firm we have improved our systems,” Ahern said. “We are using new envelopes with seals, requiring signatures and making the money go through a series of checks. We have made changes and we are still reviewing and plan to continue to make changes.”

But as for the money missing, Ahern said he is unsure of what can be done.

“I think it’s over,” Ahern said.

“The money is missing. We are determined not to let this happen again.”

Sargent Shriver, Peace Corps founder, dies at 95

By Patricia Sullivan and Emma Brown The Washington Post

R. Sargent Shriver, who was tapped to create the Peace Corps by his brother-in-law John F. Kennedy and crafted 1960s-era programs that remain cornerstones in the federal government’s efforts to combat poverty, died Tuesday at Suburban Hospital in Bethesda, Md., a family spokesman R. Sargent said. He was 95 and Shriver in had Alzheimer’s 1964. disease.

A Yale-educated lawyer from a prominent Maryland family, Shriver was a businessman and aspiring political leader when he married Eunice Kennedy in the early 1950s.

He served in three presidential

Kicker Continued from A1 So today, even as the state’s overall tax revenues appear on track to fall short of expectations, and the state’s next twoyear budget looks even worse — with a roughly $3 billion projected gap — corporations are in line for a kicker tax credit. That’s because as things stand now, it appears that when the fiscal year ends June 30, state economists will have underestimated the state’s corporate tax revenues by more than 2 percent.

Paul Warner, the state’s Legislative Revenue Officer, said that as of the last economic forecast, in December, “corporate revenue is just $7 million over the 2 percent threshold.”

If the numbers hold, he said, $23.6 million will be returned to corporate taxpayers. But that’s only if things remain the same — and because a few large companies generate so much of the state’s corporate revenue, “Literally their payments in the last week or two of the biennium can make the difference.”

Telfer has only been a lawmaker for just over two years. But in that time, she says she’s learned that economists rarely can predict the future with 98 percent accuracy.

She said that “14 out of the last 16 revenue forecasts have been off the mark. ... We just cannot depend on them.”

Telfer thinks a 2 percent margin of error is not enough, and will join with Sen. Frank Morse, R-Albany, Sen. Ginny Burdick, D-Portland, and Sen. Mark Haas, D-Portland, on a bill that would place constitutional protections on the state’s rainy day fund and essentially divert half the personal-income kicker into it. Meanwhile, the bill — which has been drafted, but is not yet formally introduced — would

College Continued from A1 “The great thing — if you can call it that — is that it’s going to spark a dialogue and focus on the actual learning issue,” said David Paris, president of the New Leadership Alliance for Student Learning and Accountability, which is pressing the cause in higher education. “What kind of intellectual growth are we seeing in college?”

The study, an unusually largescale effort to track student learning over time, comes as the federal government, reformers and others argue that the U.S. must produce more college graduates to remain competitive globally. But if students aren’t learning much, that calls into question whether boosting graduation rates will provide that edge.

“It’s not the case that giving out more credentials is going to make the U.S. more economically competitive,” Arum said. “It requires academic rigor ... You can’t just get it through osmosis at these institutions.”

What helps learning?

The findings also will likely spark a debate over what helps and hurts students learn. To sum up, it’s good to lead a monk’s existence: Students who study alone and have heavier reading and writing loads do well.

The book is based on information from 24 schools, meant to be a representative sample, that provided Collegiate Learning Assessment data on students who took the standardized test in their first semester in fall 2005 and at the end of their sophomore years in spring 2007. The schools took part on the condi-

administrations, including a stint as U.S. ambassador to France, and ran for president and vice president. His ambitions were as much propelled as they were frustrated by his connection to his in-laws, the powerful political dynasty from Massachusetts.

When the family received word in 1964 that President Lyndon B. Johnson was considering Shriver as a running mate, Eunice balked. “No,” she reportedly said, and then invoked her brother Robert’s name. “It’s Bob’s turn.”

Kennedy aide Ken O’Donnell was more straightforward, telling Shriver that if any of the inner circle were to run, it would be Bobby — not “half a Kennedy.”

Still, it was Shriver’s status as an almost-Kennedy that landed him the role for which he is perhaps best known, as the leader of the Peace Corps during its infancy.

The program sends Americans to

developing countries to volunteer in schools, farm fields and community projects. Initially a Kennedy campaign promise, the Peace Corps is now approaching its 50th anniversary and has become one of the most enduring symbols of the idealism of the early 1960s.

No one has been more identified with its success than Shriver, who led the Peace Corps for its first five years, from 1961 to 1966. He was such a driving force during the agency’s early years that many thought the program had been his idea.

Instead, Shriver recalled, President Kennedy had chosen him to lead the new agency because “everyone in Washington seemed to think that the Peace Corps was going to be the biggest fiasco in history, and it would be much easier to fire a relative than a friend.”

Shriver helped establish the corps

divert nearly the entire corporate kicker into other uses, such a “stabilization fund” for higher education to prevent drastic budget cuts to state universities.

“I think the nexus between higher education and business in this state is so clear,” Morse said. “It’s in businesses’ interest to have the best higher education system we can have.”

Those diversions would only last until the rainy day fund and higher education fund are filled to reach about a sixth or a seventh of the previous General Fund budget — meaning about $2.5 billion in the current budget cycle.

Telfer said, “I still believe the kicker is a good cap on spending, which is why (the legislation) wouldn’t keep all of it. It would still put a cap on how much we keep before we return it.”

Morse says that he envisions the bill simply referring the matter to voters, with Republican support, to prevent the bitter political warfare sparked by Measures 66 and 67 in January 2010.

“If we don’t have strong bipartisan support, we just create another partisan war,” he said.

Morse hopes that Republicans’ willingness to compromise on the kicker leads to Democratic willingness to reduce Oregon’s high capital gains tax on investment profits, to encourage economic growth.

“I’m hopeful that we can seriously consider how we find the common ground that refers something out that is robust, so that the next economic valley we come into we don’t just fall into a deep hole again,” Morse said.

Morse and Telfer could run into opposition among their House Republican counterparts.

Nick Smith, a spokesman for the House Republicans, said “we support the kicker and we are generally opposed to taking away Oregonians’ kicker checks.”

He said Republicans in the House instead support legisla-

tion that would force the state to save one percent of its projected tax revenue at the start of every two-year budget cycle, “which essentially forces the Legislature to save money before it spends at all.”

The second-highest ranking Democrat in the House, Leader Dave Hunt, D-Gladstone, said he thinks modifying the kicker is the next big step when it comes to tax reform. He pointed to the kicker checks of 2007, which returned more than $1 billion to taxpayers.

If Oregon had instead put that money in a constitutionally protected rainy-day fund, he said, it would have meant no need for the divisive January 2010 tax measures, with about $400 million extra to boot.

“There are five or 10 different ways you could do it,” he said of kicker reform. “I think there’s strong Democratic support for multiple options. ... If we do not do that this session, I think we’ve really not learned the lesson of this recession.”

Telfer knows she may run into opposition, but thinks the state’s boom-and-bust economy requires bold measures.

“We need to smooth that volatility out through savings,” she said.

Ironically, budget geeks might be hoping for the state’s economy to dim a bit, according to Warner.

That’s because if the state’s corporate tax revenue projections drop just $9 million, the figure will won’t meet the 2 percent threshold for a kicker. That means the corporate kicker — currently projected at nearly $24 million — wouldn’t kick. By losing $9 million, the state would pocket the difference, or nearly $15 million.

Warner cites this brain-twisting example to show the kicker law “works in bizarre ways.”

tion that their institutions not be identified.

The Collegiate Learning Assessment has its share of critics who say it doesn’t capture learning in specialized majors or isn’t a reliable measure of college performance because so many factors are beyond their control.

The research found an average-scoring student in fall 2005 scored seven percentage points higher in spring of 2007 on the assessment. In other words, those who entered college in the 50th percentile would rise to the equivalent of the 57th after their sophomore years.

Among the findings outlined in the book and report, which tracked students through four years of college: • Overall, the picture doesn’t brighten much over four years.

After four years, 36 percent of students did not demonstrate significant improvement, compared to 45 percent after two.

• Students who studied alone, read and wrote more, attended more selective schools and majored in traditional arts and sciences majors posted greater learning gains.

• Social engagement generally does not help student performance. Students who spent more time studying with peers showed diminishing growth and students who spent more time in the Greek system had decreased rates of learning, while activities such as working off campus, participating in campus clubs and volunteering did not impact learning.

• Students from families with different levels of parental education enter college with different learning levels but learn at about the same rates while attending college. The racial gap between black and white stu-

dents going in, however, widens: Black students improve their assessment scores at lower levels than whites.

Arum and Roksa spread the blame, pointing to students who don’t study much and seek easy courses and a culture at colleges and universities that values research over good teaching.

Subsequent research found students one year out of college are not faring well: One-third moved back home, and 10 percent were unemployed. The findings are troubling news for an engaged citizenry, Arum said.

Almost half of those surveyed said they rarely if ever discuss politics or public affairs with others either in person or online.

The report warns that federally mandated fixes similar to “No Child Left Behind” in K-12 education would be “counterproductive,” in part because researchers are still learning how to measure learning. But it does make clear that accountability should be emphasized more at the institutional level, starting with college presidents.

Some colleges and universities do not need convincing. The University of Charleston, in West Virginia, has beefed up writing assignments in disciplines such as nursing and biology to improve learning.

President Edwin Welch is among more than 70 college and university presidents pledging to take steps to improve student learning, use evidence to improve instruction and publicize results.

“I think we do need more transparency,” Welch said. “I think a student at a private institution who might go into debt for $40,000 or $50,000 has the right to know what he can learn at the institution.”

as the fastest-growing peacetime agency in U.S. history, sending more than 14,500 volunteers to 55 countries by 1966. He embraced his role as the leader of a band of idealistic volunteers, enduring endless jeep rides and at least three cases of dysentery as he traveled more than 350,000 miles to visit outposts in dozens of countries.

Shriver displayed an indefatigably sunny charisma, telling a reporter that despite the discomforts, “I have the best damned job in government.”

After John F. Kennedy was assassinated in 1963, Shriver continued to run the Peace Corps and accepted Johnson’s invitation to direct the War on Poverty as leader of the new Office of Economic Opportunity.

A skilled navigator of the federal bureaucracy, Shriver said the war on poverty was, and would continue to be, “noisy, visible, dirty, uncomfortable and sometimes politically unpopular.”

Aspen Lakes Continued from A1 Wildhorse Meadows owes $4.6 million to Medford-based PremierWest Bank, borrowed primarily to build Aspen Lakes’ clubhouse, which opened in 2008, Cyrus said.

PremierWest sent a notice of default in March to begin the foreclosure process. The bankruptcy filing will come one day before a public sale of the property was planned.

Aspen Lakes opened its first nine holes in 1997 and opened all 18 in 2000. The par-72 public course is perhaps best-known for its redcinder bunkers.

The golf facility employs nearly 100 workers during the golf season, and has an annual payroll of about $850,000, according to Aspen Lakes.

Aspen Lakes’ debt stems from a loan to build the facility’s clubhouse, which includes a pro shop and restaurant, Brand 33.

The clubhouse opened just in time to bear the brunt of the economic meltdown that took hold in 2008. The national recession officially began

Bill Clinton backs Emanuel in Chicago mayor’s race

By Monica Davey New York Times News Service

CHICAGO — As the race for mayor of this city has intensified, the usual low-key announcements of endorsements — from various local business leaders and preachers to members of Congress from Chicago — have churned forth.

Then came Rahm Emanuel, who on Tuesday raised the ante a bit, standing on a stage beside his old boss, former President Bill Clinton.

While 700 admirers (with free tickets) watched inside the Chicago Cultural Center in the heart of downtown, Emanuel praised Clinton as a mentor, a teacher, an inspiration, a role model and a “great president for our nation.”

Clinton, in turn, lauded Emanuel as someone who “was always fearlessly honest” with him and has the backbone to lead Chicago, particularly through times so marked by fiscal challenges.

“He’s a big person,” said Clinton, whom Emanuel worked for, both on his campaign and in the White House. “He’s made big decisions.”

in December 2007.

“The bottom line is the timing was bad, just like the rest of the world,” Cyrus said. “(PremierWest’s) hands are tied based on FDIC (Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.) and federal regulations and regulators looking over their shoulders. Without this process, they don’t have the ability to take a look at restructuring our debt.”

Under Chapter 11, the debtor usually proposes a plan of reorganization to keep its business operating and pay creditors over time, according to a federal court website.

Aspen Lakes will be the third Central Oregon property tied to golf to file for Chapter 11 protection in recent years.

The Greens at Redmond filed in 2009 and Remington Ranch, a destination resort development near Powell Butte that finished half of its first course, Wicked Pony, began the reorganization process in 2010.

Both properties are still in the process of reorganizing.

In addition to the bankruptcies, Thrivent Financial foreclosed on Bend’s private Broken Top Club in November.

Juniper Golf Course, the city of Redmond’s municipal golf

course, fell behind on its construction bond payments to the city in 2009, prompting Redmond to hire California-based management company CourseCo to improve operations.

In November, Jeld-Wen Inc., a Klamath Falls-based window and door maker and a golf course resort developer, sold Eagle Crest Resort in Redmond, Brasada Ranch in Powell Butte and Running Y Ranch Resort in Klamath Falls to a joint venture of Westport, Conn.-based Northview Hotel Group and a subsidiary of funds managed by Oaktree Capital Management LP. Cyrus is optimistic that Chapter 11 will help Aspen Lakes gain solid footing.

If not for the debt, Aspen Lakes would have been able to weather the economic storm, he said.

“I’m confident that potentially we are one of the healthier golf courses (in Central Oregon),” Cyrus said. “Our course generates positive cash flow. We generate a profit here, it’s just not currently sufficient to cover our existing debt.”

By Aaron C. Davis The Washington Post

CAMP RAMADI, Iraq — Officially, the yearlong mission remaining for roughly 48,000 U.S. troops in Iraq is to “advise and assist” this country’s security forces. Unofficially, it is to fight off boredom and to stay alert and safe in the long, empty stretches that dominate their days.

Assassinations, bombings and gun attacks have killed scores of Iraqi police, civilians and government officials since the beginning of the year. U.S. forces have not been asked to assist in any of them.

Rather, from behind concrete blast walls, in security bubbles that can seem deceptively safe, the end of the Iraq war has for most U.S. soldiers become a monotonous farewell mission of goodwill, a last good deed, impression or chance to set things right.

The front lines are mostly heavily armored office-hour visits with local security commanders and community leaders over Turkish coffee and tea, or to teach Iraqi police or Army enlistees the occasional nifty trick, like karate moves or magazine-design layout.

But the exchanges remain dangerous. Two American soldiers were killed and a third was wounded near Mosul on Saturday when an Iraqi Army officer receiving tactical training turned a gun on his U.S. military instructors.

And even when they are mostly executed safely, successes of the missions are often measured in small, subtle and subjective ways. Soldiers who have been here in darker times of near civil war, for instance, can find significance and chalk up success in a U.S.-hosted icebreaker that ends with a Sunni police chief and Shiite Army commander exchanging cellphone numbers.

For many of the rest, however, including the youngest, who were just 11 during the “shock and awe” bombing campaign that kicked off the U.S. invasion of 2003, it has become a struggle to reconcile the daily grind with what they expected of a tour in Iraq.

“I hope before I get out of the Army I get to go to Afghanistan at least once,” said Specialist Randall Brown, 23. His mind wandered and others dozed on a recent morning as they rode along a cratered highway between Ramadi and Fallujah, where soldiers used to sit wide-eyed, in radio silence, praying one of the day’s inevitable roadside bombs would miss their convoy.

On his first trip to Iraq and oblivious to much of the bloody history around, Brown pulled a Coke from one of three wellstocked coolers as the sun warmed the back of the armored personnel carrier. His mind was elsewhere.

“I hear they are losing people in Afghanistan every week — I don’t want to go because of that,” he rushed to add. “But because my job is still needed there; my job doesn’t exist here anymore.”

Cheney says he might seek heart transplant

By James Oliphant McClatchy-Tribune News Service

WASHINGTON — In an interview Tuesday, former Vice President Dick Cheney said he would consider seeking a heart transplant and maintained that President Obama would be voted out of office next year.

Cheney, 69, has suffered from heart trouble for most of his life.

His most recent of his five heart attacks was in February 2010.

Last summer, he had a heart pump implanted in his chest to keep blood flowing to his vital organs.

In an interview with NBC’s “Today” show, Cheney, who is noticeably thinner than during his vice presidency, said the pump was a temporary measure and that a decision on seeking a new heart hasn’t been made. “I’ll have to make a decision at some point whether or not I want to go for a transplant,” he said. “But we haven’t addressed that yet.”

Asked if he still believes that Obama will be a one-term president, Cheney responded, “I do.”

“He embarked upon a course of action when he became president that did not have as much support as he thought it did,” Cheney said. “I think his overall approach to expanding the size of govern-

ment, expanding the deficit, and giving more and more authority and power to the government over the private sector is a lack of — sort of a feel for the role of the private sector in — in creating jobs, in creating wealth and getting our economy back on track.

Those are all weaknesses, as I look at Barack Obama.”

Cheney, however, noted that his concerns about Obama’s approach to national security had been eased somewhat, largely because the president has perpetuated many of the anti-terrorism measures of the Bush administration. “I think he’s learned that what we did was far more appropriate than he ever gave us credit for while he was a candidate. So I think he’s learned from experience,” Cheney said.

Cheney also addressed the shootings in Tucson that killed six and wounded 13, including Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, D-Ariz., cautioning against tying the tragedy to overheated political rhetoric.

“I think our politics can get pretty rough at times. Having been vice president for eight years, maybe I’m more sensitive to it than others, but the fact of the matter is, a good, tough political fight is one of the great strengths of our democracy.”

(the United States has dropped one bomb in Iraq in the past 14 months), Brown, of the 3rd Battalion, 15th Infantry Division out of Fort Stewart, Ga., now spends the few mornings a week that he leaves the safe confines of his base to stand in a walled-in, muddy Iraqi police compound in Habbaniya, smoking cigarettes with a dozen other soldiers from his platoon. They’re all tasked with providing security for the day’s “mission” — a mind-numbing, 90minute PowerPoint presentation on disaster management for three Iraqi police lieutenants inside.

In a darkened room, Sgt. Michael Cosgro lectured on how to control a hostage situation. He read bullet points on a set of U.S. law-enforcement training slides, then paused for a U.S.-paid Arabic translator to repeat what he said, even though those lines, too, were printed on the slides in Arabic. Halfway through the presentation, the Iraqis’ eyes glazed over

like college students’ at a new section titled “More Objectives for the Critical Incident Commander.”

The Iraqi policeman closest to Cosgro fought off a yawn, but the U.S. soldier left upbeat.

“They asked a couple questions,” Cosgro said as he turned off the video projector.

The hefty personnel requirements stem from security protocols developed for deadlier years of the war. Much the way they used to move in for firefights, U.S. troops now travel to coffee or tea in four or more 75,000pound mine-resistant armored vehicles. On roads packed with bustling civilian traffic, the slowmoving convoys look like relics.

But even such precautions cannot keep every soldier safe. Homemade rockets, sniper fire and other attacks have killed an average of two U.S. soldiers a month since the last combat brigades left in August. So far, January has been the deadliest month since the de-

parture of combat troops. In addition to the two killed near Mosul, a third was killed on Saturday in central Iraq, and two were also killed in a bombing on Jan. 2.

“What we’re doing now, it’s nothing anybody has been trained for,” said Maj. William Hansen, 40. “But I believe we can build up the fabric, reestablish the connections and maybe some of the trust between people here that has broken down.”

At Camp Ramadi, the Taco Bell and other fast-food trailers have begun to roll away and commanders have twice consolidated the base inward, leaving a quarter-mile-wide band of empty buildings gathering dust around the nucleus that remains.

Hansen’s final role here is mostly a desk job. He runs the civil affairs operation that used to hand out more than $200,000 a day, and nearly $90 million over a year and a half, around 2007, when the United States was trying to turn the tide of the war in part by buying the support of disenfranchised Sunnis across Anbar province.

Now, with U.S. troops scheduled to leave the country by the end of the year, Hansen is divvying up the very last of such money. A “big” project has shrunk to just $5,000, Hansen said, and the United States no longer wants to be seen as the one handing out the goods. Instead, Hansen and his staff require Iraqi Army or police to set up and carry out the distribution, such as a recent book bag handout.

“I measure success as whether the head of the school has the Iraqi police commander’s number if something goes wrong,” Hansen said.

Aaron Jarnigan, commander of the Bravo Battery 1-148th Field Artillery Regiment on Fort Prosperity, which runs the military’s rapid response team in Baghdad’s Green Zone, said he’ll be glad when his last tour in Iraq is over.

His team hasn’t been called to respond to a single incident since he arrived in Iraq four months ago. “I’m bored to tears, but hey, that’s progress, right?” he said.

Bomber kills scores of Iraqi police officers and recruits

By Steven Lee Myers New York Times News Service

BAGHDAD — A suicide bomber mingling in a crowd of prospective police recruits in Saddam Hussein’s hometown detonated a vest of explosives Tuesday in what was the worst single attack in Iraq in nearly three months.

The bombing in Tikrit, north of Baghdad, killed at least 49 people, including police officers and men seeking jobs with the region’s police force, according to a security official in the province, Salahuddin. Other officials and the Interior Ministry in Baghdad cited death tolls as high as 60, with the differences reflecting the chaotic aftermath that typically follows major bombings. At least 119 were wounded.

Violence in Iraq has reached a low since the U.S. invasion in 2003, but the Islamic State of Iraq and other insurgent groups continue to strike with regularity, if with less severity.

Tariq al-Hashimi, a former vice president who remains in Parliament, said in a statement, “The army and police recruiting centers have become attractive targets that are easily reached.” He called for a review of policies after what he called “repeated security breaches.”

Several hundred job seekers had assembled at a parade ground in Tikrit that had once been the site of political and military rallies during Saddam’s rule.

An attack at an army recruiting office in Baghdad last August killed 57 people.

A commando-style raid struck that same compound the following month, killing 12, as well as six insurgents.

President seeks to uncover and change any rules that stifle job creation New York Times News Service

LOS ANGELES — Facebook is temporarily holding off on letting developers request its users’ addresses and phone numbers after a bit of frustration from its users and security experts.

But the move to grant access to such information to external websites and applications isn’t going away altogether, Facebook said in a post on its Developer Blog on Tuesday morning.

For now, the ability for thirdparty Facebook app developers and websites to request a user’s address and phone number has been disabled, but it will come back, the company said.

Facebook first announced the move to grant such access Friday night.

Obama orders regulatory review

By Jackie Calmes

Facebook backpedals on sharing user data

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama on Tuesday ordered “a governmentwide review” of federal regulations to root out those “that stifle job creation and make our economy less competitive,” but he exempted many agencies that most vex corporate America.

The immediate effect is likely to be

more political than substantive.

The action was the latest in a series by Obama to claim the ideological center, and in particular to signal to businesses that he wants to work more closely with them on policies that could help create jobs.

Obama’s executive order would not apply to federal agencies created to be largely independent of the White House and Congress. That includes those, like

the Securities and Exchange Commission and Federal Reserve, that currently are writing new rules for banks and other institutions that are mandated by the new law aimed at preventing another financial crisis.

And it includes others, like the Federal Communications Commission, that have sway over large sectors of the economy.

The order would cover executive

branch departments that are drafting regulations to carry out the new health care law and environmental rules that also have been the focus of intense battles.

In an accompanying memorandum, Obama emphasized that regulators should be flexible when it comes to rules that would affect small businesses.

The president has made no secret of his desire for detente with businesses after the fights of the last few years.

Boeing again delays delivery of 787 The Boeing Co. on Tuesday pushed back the first delivery of its 787 Dreamliner to the third quarter, hoping that the delay will give it time to finish a jetliner that is more than three years behind schedule.

The latest delay is a result of a fire in an electrical panel that forced a test plane to make an emergency landing in November. Boeing had to suspend test flights while it redesigned some parts, and it just resumed flights Monday to test systems that require federal certifications.

Boeing’s last projection had anticipated the first delivery in February. But the company, based in Chicago, said Tuesday that it did not expect the delay to have a material impact on its earnings for 2011.

Homebuilders remain discouraged LOS ANGELES — U.S. homebuilders remain discouraged over the prospects for improved home sales in the months ahead, unconvinced as yet that the economy will spur the kind of job growth needed to coax more buyers into the market.

The National Association of Home Builders said Tuesday that its monthly reading of builders’ sentiment was unchanged in January at 16, where it’s been since November.

While it remains the highest reading since June, any reading below 50 indicates negative sentiment about the market. The index hasn’t been above that level since April 2006.

Bend is poised to see even more visitors in 2011 as the city continues to attract national sporting events

ore tourists — whether running and riding bikes in more national championship races or attending national meetings like Trout Unlimited’s annual convention — are coming to Bend in 2011.

That message was delivered by Visit Bend staff during the organization’s board of directors meeting Tuesday.

“September is going to be our biggest month,” said Doug La Placa, president and CEO of the city’s tourism-promotion agency.

“All of 2011 is going to be an exciting year for group event business in Bend,” La Placa said. “The month of September represents the pinnacle of that business

As things start to look up for those still employed, prospects grim for jobless

cruiting and managing group events.

Most cities the size of Bend and larger have staff dedicated to recruiting and managing sporting events, and separate staff focused on recruiting corporate and trade association meetings and events, La Placa said.

While Visit Bend is looking at that option, it’s currently not in the budget, he said.

“Visit Bend is a full-service sales, marketing and business development agency for the city of Bend. While the athletic events that we bring to the city get most of the attention publicly, it actually represents a small piece of what we do.”

DALLAS — A year ago, Ron Platt was working as a national account manager at a sporting goods company, supplying retailers throughout the western United States. But sales dwindled along with the economy, and he got laid off in March.

Now, at 55, the Carrollton, Texas, father of five, who used to pull down six figures, is bringing in $400 a week in unemployment benefits and spending eight hours a day scouring job websites, networking and sending out resumes.

“I’ve been employed for 37

years,” he said. “Started out way back in the ’70s. Never once collected a dime of unemployment during those years.”

In broad economic terms, the employment situation has eked out some small gains over the last year after nose-diving in much of 2008 and 2009. But there’s still a millstone hanging from the neck of the job market: long-term unemployment. Officially, that means being out of work 27 weeks or more.

In December, about 6.4 million Americans were long-term unemployed, according to the U.S. Department of Labor.

Shortly before the iPad tablet went on sale last year, Steve Jobs showed off Apple’s latest creation to a group of journalists. One asked what consumer and market research Apple had done to guide the development of the new product.

“None,” Jobs replied. “It isn’t the consumers’ job to know what they want.”

For years, knowing what consumers want has been the self-appointed task of Jobs, Apple’s charismatic co-founder. Although he has not always been right, his string of successes at Apple is uncanny. His biggest user-pleasing hits include the Macintosh, the iMac, iBook, iPod, iPhone and iPad. But as he takes a medical leave of absence, announced Monday, the question is: Without him at the helm, can Apple continue its streak of innovation, particularly in an industry where rapid-fire product cycles can make today’s leader tomorrow’s laggard?

packets and 12 for businesses, she said.

Due to increasing demands for public relations services, La Placa said Visit Bend made a change from contracting out public relations work to hiring Tawna Fenske as a staff PR manager about six months ago.

That transition is working well, La Placa said.

Fenske reported on the effectiveness of a service called Vocus Public Relations that normally costs $18,000 a year but was acquired by Visit Bend for $10,000 for the first year.

She said the service allows Visit Bend to identify journalists by the beats they cover, interests, location and other details, and target press releases to the specific journalists or groups of journalists most likely to use the information distributed.

“Public relations is a big part of what we do,” La Placa said.

“Over the last six months, we have improved our ability to communicate nationally and internationally.

“I think the salient message coming out of this meeting is that Visit Bend is a full-service sales, marketing and business development agency for the city of Bend,” La Placa said. “While the athletic events that we bring to the city get most of the attention publicly, it actually represents a small piece of what we do.”

Continued from B1 From November to December, hits were up 11 percent with the new Visit Bend website launched about year ago, and January is on track to be up 17 percent compared with the previous year, Braillard said.

Those increases continue a trend of increasing website traffic, which she said was up 68 percent in August, 37 percent in September and 30 percent in October, from the same months in 2009.

“Our blog has continued to drive more traffic to our website,” she said.

Other online marketing activities include promoting Bend across the Travel Oregon website with targeted banner ads, along with an ad in the Travel Oregon interactive guide. Braillard said Travel Oregon has more than 1.6 million unique visits annually.

Visit Bend’s website traffic has been running between 24,362 and 49,810 visits per month over the past six months, Braillard said.

In addition to providing tourists with information about events, lodging, dining, shopping and other details related to tourism, Braillard said the website also provides information for people looking to relocate to the Bend area to live or run a business.

The agency has had 300 requests for residential relocation

Continued from B1 So far at Visit Bend, Kevney Dugan, sports development manager, has been wearing two hats, recruiting and managing sports and the traditional business and association events.

“We are somewhat at capacity in terms of managing these events,” Dugan said at Tuesday’s meeting. “If we continue to have success recruiting these national sports events, five years down the road we are going to have seven or eight national championships. As of right now, we are hosting four national championships in 2011.”

The two USA Cycling events signed on this year for the first time in Bend include the Master’s Road Cycling National Championships (Aug. 20-Sept. 4) and the Marathon Mountain Biking National Championships (Sept. 1618), Dugan said.

Those events replace two USA Cycling events that concluded two-year runs in Bend in 2010, in-

Jobless Continued from B1 Those people represented 44.3 percent of all the unemployed.

They also amounted to 4.2 percent of the civilian labor force — a slightly lower level than the nearly 4.4 percent rate recorded in mid-2010, but otherwise higher than any rate since 1948, when records began being kept.

Unemployment benefits last longer than previously. Before the recent recession, unemployment insurance lasted six months.

These days, extended benefits can last up to 99 weeks in the hardest-hit states.

For many people, losing a job in the worst recession in decades has meant more than a temporary bout of unemployment. It has meant many months or years of networking and knocking on doors — plus career damage, emotional challenges and financial hardship that continues to weigh on the economy.

“There’s a growing dichotomy between the fortunes of people who are at work and people who have lost their jobs,” said Gary Burtless, an economist at the Brookings Institution

rise to the financial crisis.

More broadly, Obama’s order also reflects his effort to regain support from centrist and independent voters, who will be crucial to his own re-election.

Republicans leaders generally applauded Obama’s initiative, even as they pointed out its limitations.

Business and conservative groups likewise welcomed it. But liberal and consumer groups criticized Obama for echoing some of the anti-regulation rhetoric of Republicans despite recent tragedies.

Both sides and nonpartisan policy analysts expressed skepticism, however, that much would come of Obama’s order.

Continued from B1 He recently met with about 20 corporate executives to discuss ideas for economic growth and will speak to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce on Feb. 7. He also named William Daley, formerly an executive of JPMorgan Chase, as his chief of staff.

Obama announced his executive order with a column on the op-ed page in The Wall Street Journal on Tuesday, in which he called for “the right balance” between free markets and public safeguards against health hazards and commercial abuses like those that gave

cluding the Junior Elite U23 Road Cycling National Championships and the Cyclo-Cross National Championships.

Dugan said the two new cycling events are expected to attract more riders and generate more tourism spending in the area.

The master’s cycling championship is expected to attract about 1,200 riders — 300 more than the 900 who participated in the junior event. Dugan said riders age 30 and up participating in the master’s event tend to spend more when they visit than the under-30 contestants in the junior cycling championships.

La Placa said negotiations are under way to extend the nationally televised Xterra National Trail Running event, held in Bend for the past three years, “for a fourth year, and add a second Xterra national championship in 2011.

These events are important for the impact to the local economy, and for the national television exposure to our area.”

Dugan outlined several other new sporting events scheduled for

2011, and on the status of negotiations for other big fish he hopes to land.

“Chris Warner, who finished in top 10 at The Tour de France, is looking at putting on a race in Bend. He is great friends with Lance Armstrong, and wherever he shows up, people show up to ride,” Dugan said.

“I am very optimistic come this September we will see the Tough Mudder event,” which he said is a difficult international foot race featuring obstacles for runners.

“It will put Bend on the map” by giving Bend international exposure and the potential to draw other international events and tourists, he said.

Negotiations also are under way to lure the Handmade Bike Show away from Astoria, along with the Halloween Cross Crusades race from Portland, Dugan said. Visit Bend is negotiating to host both of those events over Halloween weekend, Oct. 28-30, which Dugan said would bring more than 1,000 riders to town during the shoulder season, be-

“There’s a growing dichotomy between the fortunes of people who are at work and people who have lost their jobs. Things have turned up for the employed.”

— Gary Burtless, economist, the Brookings Institution in Washington. “Things have turned up for the employed, but they’re still very, very grim for the unemployed. If you lost your job, getting a job remains very difficult.”

Platt applied for a $12-an-hour job at a retail warehouse club, but the store told him no, predicting he’d simply leave when the economy improved, he said.

While he and numerous others interviewed for this report say they have seen an uptick in interest from employers in recent weeks, it’ll take a lot of hiring to put a dent in the national unemployment rate.

“I’ve been unemployed since June 2009, and I’ve been applying for everything I can,” said Cheryl Marchand, 54, a commercial interior designer in Fort Worth, Texas. She estimates that she’s applied for almost 1,000 jobs. Her benefits run out in the spring.

Plano, Texas, resident Ken-

neth Conte, 60, spent 30 years in the home mortgage business and worked his way up to six-figure pay. He closed his sole proprietorship in early 2008 as the mortgage market plummeted, then landed a job selling rugs in Texas and Oklahoma. He was laid off in April 2009 and has been looking for work ever since.

“What can I do? Pray,” he said.

At Crossroads Bible Church in Double Oak, Texas, about a dozen job seekers gathered on a recent evening for a weekly career-networking meeting. The group included unemployed people from the engineering, IT, sales and marketing, human resources and supply chain fields.

They discussed job interview strategies, led by group leader Rex Jones, a human resources executive at Dallas electric power company Energy Future Holdings.

she had an upcoming job interview at a local company, Kirk Taylor said he knew the human resources manager there — a potentially valuable connection.

Taylor, 58, worked 30 years with automobile manufacturers as a contact with dealers. He lost his job in April 2009 as car sales swooned.

Since then, he’s done some substitute teaching and applied for jobs with automotive-related businesses such as tire distributors, an industrial fluids supplier and auto parts companies. Now a typical day consists of six hours of networking and communicating with potential employers.

“It’s an emotional roller coaster,” he said. He’s already had to tap into his retirement savings, and his unemployment benefits run out in a couple of months. But he has some promising job possibilities in the works.

“Overall, I remain optimistic,” he said. “I feel like I’ve still got a lot of years to work.”

tween the busy summer and winter tourist seasons.

Outdoor writers from around the Northwest also have committed to hold a national meeting in Bend, which Dugan said will bring about 80 outdoor writers to town.

“These are our outdoor writers who would stay here and go home and write about Bend,” he said.

While events are scheduled throughout the year, La Placa said every week in September has major events booked, including the Trout Unlimited annual meeting, which is expected to bring about 400 people from across the country to Bend the second week of September.

“At Visit Bend, our role is to generate business for the entire community. We have to focus on citywide events, rather than events that benefit one hotel or one section of town. These events benefit our entire local economy,” La Placa said.

Indians gather around stalls at a vegetable market in Ahmadabad, India, earlier this month. Food inflation hit its highest level in a year last month at 18.32 percent, compounding the hardships of India’s hundreds of millions living in poverty.

Consumers here are likely to see bigger grocery bills soon

By Alan Bjerga and Tony Dreibus Bloomberg News

The same record food prices causing riots in Algeria and export bans in India are allowing President Barack Obama to combine the biggest-ever U.S. farm exports with the tamest inflation since the 1960s.

Global food costs jumped 25 percent last year to an all-time high in December, according to the United Nations. Countries probably spent at least $1 trillion on imports, with the poorest paying as much as 20 percent more than in 2009, the U.N. says. In the United States, the largest exporter, retail food rose 1.5 percent last year and will gain as little as 2 percent in 2011, the Department of Agriculture estimates.

Governments from Beijing to Belgrade are boosting imports, limiting sales or releasing stockpiles to curb food inflation. Higher prices will push U.S. agricultural exports up 16 percent to a record $126.5 billion this year, according to a USDA forecast.

While U.S. consumers haven’t been squeezed so far, grocers from Winn-Dixie Stores to SuperValu have said they plan increases. Commodities will keep rising, according to a Bloomberg

survey of more than 100 analysts and traders.

“We are absolutely spoiled,” said Jason Britt, president of Central States Commodities Inc., a research and analysis company in Kansas City, Mo. “We have the luxury that we spend a small percentage on food. But I wouldn’t be surprised to see larger bites of our incomes used.”

About 19 cents of every dollar spent on food covers raw-material costs in the U.S., so retailers can limit increases by cutting spending on labor or marketing, said Ephraim Leibtag, a food economist at the USDA in Washington.

The consumer price index rose 4.2 percent since the end of 2007, the smallest three-year increase since 1965, Labor Department data show.

Producer spending for processed foods rose 4.9 percent in the U.S. last year, while consumer prices increased 1.5 percent, Labor Department data show.

The farm boom is aiding Obama’s goal of doubling U.S. exports in five years, with this year’s shipments accounting for 4 percent of the $3.14 trillion needed to meet the target.

U.S. farm income last year probably exceeded the 2004 record of

$87.3 billion, and cropland values gained as much as 10 percent, according to Neil Harl, an agricultural economist at Iowa State University and former adviser to the governments of Ukraine and the Czech Republic.

Products for supermarkets rose 1.8 percent in the three months ended Sept. 22, while consumer prices gained 1.6 percent, WinnDixie Chief Executive Officer Peter Lynch said on a Nov. 2 conference call. Some will probably keep increasing to cover costs, and the Jacksonville, Fla.-based company has a “relatively good” chance of passing that to consumers, he said.

Wholesale costs in the U.S. rose 1.1 percent in December from November, the most in 11 months, led by rising commodities including fuel and food, the Labor Department reported Jan. 13. Food rose 0.8 percent in December from a month earlier.

“At the margin, the consumer will swap down from ribeye steak to butt steak and then to chicken, but in reality very little shall happen,” said Dennis Gartman, a Suffolk, Va.-based economist and author of the Gartman Letter. “Of far greater concern to the consumer is rising gasoline.”

Apple Continued from B1 There is no near-term danger. Apple’s surging sales and profits have made it the world’s most valuable technology company, surpassing Microsoft last year. Apple reported Tuesday that its profits and sales jumped more than 70 percent in the fourth quarter, exceeding high expectations.

Apple is on a roll, with new models of products in the pipeline. Yet there would be concern, analysts say, if Jobs does not return full-time to the company, given his oversized role in shaping Apple’s products.

“Steve Jobs has this extraordinary ability to see into the future and instinctively see what people want,” said Michael Cusumano, a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s Sloan School of Management. “He’s done that consistently, in a way no one else has.”

Jobs, by all accounts, relies on intuition and his own sense of taste, in decisions ranging from hiring to matters of product design.

“Steve is one of the most instinctive people I know,” said Michael Hawley, a computer scientist at MIT who worked for Jobs at Next, a pioneering but commercially unsuccessful computer company.

That was during the period after 1985, when Jobs left Apple; he returned in late 1996.

As the final arbiter on product decisions, Jobs, colleagues say, is uncompromising. Prototypes and early working products are produced and constantly refined. They are shown not to

Apple reports record profits SAN FRANCISCO — The holidays were really good to Apple.

Consumers around the world flocked into the company’s stores and other outlets to snap up iPhones and iPads at a dizzying rate.

They also bought millions of laptops, especially the new ultralight MacBook Air. As a result, Apple on Tuesday reported record sales and profits for the last three months of 2010 that far exceeded analysts’ bullish forecasts.

Apple said its net income in the last three months of 2010 rose 78 percent from a year earlier to a record $6 billion, or $6.43 a share, from $3.4 billion, or $3.67 a share, a year earlier. Revenue soared more than 70 percent to $26.74 billion, from $15.68 billion a year earlier.

— New York Times News Service focus groups or other outsiders, but to Jobs and a few members of his team.

Three iPhone prototypes were completed over the course of a year. The first two were tossed out, said a former Apple manager, while the third passed muster. The product shipped in June 2007. The iPad tablet, at Jobs’ insistence, relies on only touchscreen navigation — even though industry analysts said business users, in particular, would want a stylus.

With the iPad tablet, Apple jump-started a product category.

But with the iPod (a music and media player) and iPhone (smart phone), Apple moved into markets with many millions of users using rival products, but he gave consumers a much improved experience.

“These are seeing-around-thecorner innovations,” said John Kao, an innovation consultant to corporations and governments.

“Steve Jobs is totally tuned into what consumers want. But these are not the kind of breakthroughs that market research, where you are asking people’s opinions, really help you make.”

Regis McKenna, a Silicon Valley investor and marketing consultant, said employees at Apple stores provide the company with a powerful window into user habits and needs, even if it is not conventional market research.

“Steve visits the Apple store in Palo Alto frequently,” said McKenna, a former consultant to Apple.

The design decisions made

by Jobs, McKenna said, are informed by his grasp of users’ desires, technology trends and popular culture. In the end, he added, Apple products also reflect Jobs’ personality.

“Steve’s a cool guy and he designs cool products,” McKenna said.

Such skills, analysts say, cannot be easily replaced.

“There are lots of creative ideas in any good company, but ultimately choices have to be made,” said David B. Yoffie, a professor at the Harvard Business School. “Steve Jobs has made great choices and then refined those. That’s a real art, not a science.”

Leaders Death laid to rollover, not train spend close to $11,000 on fees Slow change at Juniper Bend water ASCOCC

By Lauren Dake The Bulletin

The man who died in the car crash outside Metolius on Saturday was ejected from the car before the train hit the vehicle, according to the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office.

Paul Miller, 21, of Warm Springs, broke his neck in the car crash, an autopsy showed. The driver of the vehicle in which Miller was riding missed a corner on Eureka Lane. The car rolled a couple of hundred feet, hit some rocks

and came to a stop on the railroad tracks. “(Miller’s) injuries were consistent with being thrown from a vehicle,” Jefferson County Sheriff Jim Adkins said.

“The train had nothing to do with the fatality.”

Three other people were in the vehicle with Miller — a 31-year-old man from Warm Springs and a 30-year-old woman from Salem, both of whom suffered minor injuries, and a 22-year-old man from Warm Springs. Officials

from the Jefferson County’s Sheriff’s Office declined to release the names of those people, saying the investigation is ongoing.

After the vehicle rolled, the female passenger ran to the nearby town of Metolius, about a half mile away, and called 911. While she was gone, and before emergency responders arrived, a northbound Burlington Northern train hit the car.

Police declined to say where the other occupants of the vehicle were when

the train hit the car. Officials did say alcohol may have been a factor in the accident.

Jefferson County District Attorney Steven Leriche said he did not know if criminal charges would be filed.

“I went to the scene,” he said, “and will wait for the investigation results before we make a final decision on what will happen.”

issues to be debated, explained at forums

By Sheila G. Miller The Bulletin

Negotiations between Central Oregon Community College and the Associated Students of COCC regarding the student government’s roles and responsibilities continue, and so far the feud has cost close to $11,000 in student fees.

According to documents obtained by The Bulletin, ASCOCC filed two check requests with the college’s fiscal services department on Dec. 5 for $10,953.50.

The check requests were to pay two invoices.

Greg Lynch, an attorney with Miller Nash LLP who was hired by ASCOCC in October to represent the group in negotiations with the college, charged ASCOCC $5,103.50 for 17.3 hours of work during October at $295 per hour.

India Simmons, a public relations specialist who runs PR Ink and whom ASCOCC representatives said in an October memo had been hired for public relations training, charged ASCOCC $5,850 for work over three months — August, September and October. According to her invoice from Nov. 15, Simmons charged the group for 10 hours’ work each month but noted she’d actually worked more than 30 hours each month for ASCOCC. That means Simmons charges $195 per hour. In an e-mail, Simmons listed her billable activities as research, conferences with students, developing a media strategy and drafting statements, among other activities.

Students pay a $1.50 ASCOCC student fee for every credit they take each term. ASCOCC expects to collect about $260,000 in student fees in 2010-11.

The costs stem from an ongoing issue between the college and student government. While the college has had a student government since at least the 1950s and a student fee that ASCOCC oversees since 1993, no formal policy was ever put in place.

To assist in formalizing the policy on ASCOCC, the student government hired Lynch as their advocate and met with COCC officials several times over the fall term in an attempt to forge an agreement.

On Feb. 1, new management will take over at Redmond’s Juniper Golf Course. From left, Juniper Board of Governors President Ron Grace, 61, of Redmond, Pat Ross, 77, of Redmond, and Bend resident Bob Babcock, 70, prepare to tee off at Juniper on Tuesday.

New course manager to begin gradual recovery Feb. 1

By Patrick Cliff The Bulletin

New management will take over Redmond’s municipal Juniper Golf Course on Feb. 1, but regulars should not expect any immediate nor drastic changes.

The new management, California-based CourseCo, and city leaders anticipate a gradual turnaround for the much-praised though troubled Juniper. For the past two years, Redmond has given the course a total of about $900,000 to pay the debt service. The city’s ultimate goal is for Juniper to be able to make its own debt payments.

The city wants to be patient as CourseCo attempts to lead a recovery, Public Works Director Chris Doty said.

“We’re not expecting tremendous change right off the bat,” Doty said. “We un-

“We’re not expecting tremendous change right off the bat. We understand they’re going to take time and really evaluate how the course operates and where there’s room for improvement.”

— Chris Doty, director, Redmond Public Works

derstand they’re going to take time and really evaluate how the course operates and where there’s room for improvement.”

Consulting firm After Juniper’s financial troubles became clear less than two years ago, the city hired a Florida-based consulting firm to evaluate the course, and the firm’s report included a suggestion to look for new management. The report also included suggestions on making the course easier and

improving marketing.

CourseCo, which runs 20 courses on the West Coast, does not plan to move on every recommendation immediately.

The company has spent the past few weeks meeting with groups that include the Juniper members and the Redmond Chamber of Commerce & CVB.

Understanding players Tom Isaak, CourseCo’s president, said he wants to better understand how Juniper’s frequent

players feel about the course.

“We wouldn’t presume to jump in and start making changes,” Isaak said.

“We’re listening to people, as broad of a range of golfers as possible.”

That approach is a relief to Ron Grace, president of the course’s Board of Governors. Juniper members, he said, have worried about what change is coming once CourseCo takes over. The meetings with members have helped alleviate some of that concern, Grace said.

Grace disagreed with the Redmond City Council’s initial decision to look for new management but thinks CourseCo taking over is a good outcome of that move.

“I can’t say anything bad about what they’ve done so far and they’ve really listened to us,” Grace said.

A $58 million to $73 million reconstruction of Bend’s Bridge Creek water system will undergo some additional scrutiny over the next week as opponents of the project, city officials and various experts dissect and analyze the merits of the overhaul during two upcoming public forums.

The first forum, being put on

by City Club of Central Oregon, takes place at St. Charles Bend on Thursday, and will be a debate between one of the project’s most vocal opponents, local attorney Bill Buchanan, and City Engineer Tom Hickmann, who has been spearheading the upgrade initiative.

Organizers said this debate will serve as the precursor to a second event planned for Monday at the Oregon State University-Cascades Campus, which aims to clarify the arguments on both sides of the issue while also trying to clear up any factual misrepresentations that have been made about the overhaul or its alternatives.

State officials Some of the panelists for that moderated discussion include representatives from the state Water Resources Department, Department of Environmental Quality, Upper Deschutes Watershed Council and OSU-Cascades’ Natural Resources program. Buchanan and Hickmann will also take part, along with Bend City Councilors Mark Capell — who is a proponent of the upgrade — and Jim Clinton, who was the only dissenting vote on the council.

“The reason we chose to do this is that it felt as though the conversation had simply become so polarized that no one in the community had a chance to put the two sides together,” City Club Executive Director Robert Killen said. “The hope is that we’re helping to create a little more civil and constructive dialogue.”

Bend solar contractor sentenced to 6 years

By Scott Hammers The Bulletin

A Bend alternative energy contractor will serve more than six years in prison for defrauding his clients, Judge Stephen Tiktin ruled in Deschutes County Circuit Court on Tuesday.

In December, Eric “Gabe” Wisehart entered an Alford plea to charges of racketeering, four counts of first-degree aggravated theft and offering to work as a contractor without a licence. In an Alford plea, a defendant does not admit guilt, but concedes there is sufficient evidence to lead to a conviction.

Wisehart had originally faced 35

separate charges, but agreed to enter the Alford plea on six charges in exchange for having the remaining charges dropped.

On Tuesday, Tiktin sentenced Wisehart to serve 75 months in pris- Eric “Gabe” on. He will be barred Wisehart from working as a contractor for 20 years, and will be ordered to pay restitution to the 22 victims he defrauded of roughly $2.5 million.

A hearing to determine the specifics of

Wisehart’s restitution obligations will be held within 60 days.

Wisehart, 40, who has been held at the Deschutes County Jail since September 2009, was accused of stealing from clients who had hired him to install wind and solar energy systems.

Removed equipment Prosecutors said Wisehart would accept payment for a job upfront and do none or only some of the work, and in some cases, would return to a job site to remove previously-installed equipment.

Along with several individuals, Wise-

hart was alleged to have stolen from a handful of companies in the area, including Brasada Ranch, Ray’s Food Place and the Pronghorn golf resort.

In court Tuesday, Deschutes County prosecutor Van McIver said there was no reason to believe Wisehart ever intended to complete the work, or to refund the money to his customers.

“Instead, it was spent by Mr. Wisehart and his wife, living a life of entitlement and excess well beyond their actual means,” he said.

Wisehart’s wife, Sonia, is not facing criminal charges.

Water Continued from C1 “I know that in this process there have been discussions of merit, but from a citizen’s point of view I think that the citizens of the community felt it was an argument,� Killen said.

Bend’s Bridge Creek project, which includes replacing a 10mile pipeline, building a treatment facility and the possibility of adding a hydropower plant, has been called one of the largest single infrastructure undertakings in the city’s history, and has the potential to increase water rates by upward of 45 percent over the next five years.

It has generated a fair amount of controversy over the coming months for being too expensive for ratepayers and potentially detrimental to stream flows in Tumalo Creek, which runs through Shevlin Park and dumps into the middle Deschutes River.

Bridge Creek is a tributary of Tumalo Creek, and it provides about half of Bend’s water supply.

The rest comes from groundwater and is pumped by wells.

There are also concerns about how the city has proceeded with the project, and the financial assumptions it used to justify mov-

Wisehart Continued from C1 Defense attorney Matt Murphy said Wisehart eventually would have finished the jobs he accepted money for, but claimed he himself had been defrauded by suppliers who failed to deliver equipment. Murphy also said that Wisehart suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder stemming from his time in the National Guard, and that while the actions that cost his clients money were negligent, they were

ing forward on the project.

Last fall, the overall project increased by $2 million and the revenue projections for the hydropower component were found by be off by more than $1 million a year, going down from $1.7 million to $700,000. The city decided to perform another analysis to revise its original 50-year cost projections that showed the difference between reinvesting in surface water and switching to all groundwater alternative was about $250 million.

This new analysis, however, was performed by the city’s consulting firm, HDR Engineering Inc., which was hired to do the preliminary design work on the overhaul and stood to gain millions of dollars if it was retained through the project.

When HDR released its report on the costs, it found — despite the higher costs of the project and lower revenue estimates — the cost difference between surface water and groundwater was more than $400 million.

Buchanan has been leading the charge to get the city to take a step back from the Bridge Creek overhaul, and consider reevaluating other alternatives, in particular a switch to all groundwater that he says will save the city millions of dollars in upfront costs.

not intentional.

Andrew Campbell from the Oregon Department of Justice, said it’s difficult to know if there are additional victims that have not been located by prosecutors.

Because Wisehart often promised one thing and delivered another, Campbell said it’s quite possible there are former clients who have not realized they overpaid for the equipment Wisehart installed for them.

Sheryl Boyd, who says she lost close to $100,000 to Wisehart, said she did a lot of homework while planning to install solar panels

C OV ER S T OR I ES Despite his pleas to slow down, he has been largely unsuccessful.

The Bend City Council already voted to move ahead with the pipeline and treatment portion of the project, and is expected to make a decision on the $13 million hydropower option in February or March.

Because of this, City Manager Eric King said he found the timing of the forums to be somewhat curious considering decisions had already been made. King said he was also surprised to learn about the OSU-Cascades event since no one from the college had contacted him about it before it was scheduled.

He added that as long as the forums aren’t intended to “influence decisions� that he supports anything that helps educate the public. “The timing of them is a little bit awkward,� King said. “(But) I think that they’re a good thing, and I would say we’re happy to participate in them.�

Matt Shinderman, a senior natural resources instructor at OSU-Cascades who is facilitating Monday’s discussion, said the main focus of the forums is to clarify some of the debate that has been swirling around the city’s surface water project in a way that makes it easier for the public

at her home, getting four bids from different contractors before choosing Wisehart. She said she was impressed by his work at the Bend Ray’s Food Place — before it was revealed he came back to remove solar panels he’d installed on the store’s roof — and found Wisehart very persuasive when she met with him to discuss her project. “He is such a good talker,� she said. “Who knows what he could have done with a jury?�

Boyd said she was satisfied with Wisehart’s sentence, in part because he’s unlikely to be able to

to understand. “Clearly there is a renewed interest in this and people are getting information from all sorts of sources and not all of that information is accurate,� Shinderman said. “We want to explore some of the concerns that have been expressed in a little more depth and have a more exploratory type of discussion.�

The discussion is intended to openly and objectively examine the pros and cons of the city’s surface water project, he said, while also comparing it to the groundwater alternative that Buchanan and others have recently put forth.

He added that he thinks there should have been more dialogue before the city moved ahead on this project considering the size and cost it will have to people and the environment around Bend. “As an OSU representative, what I hope happens is for people leave the forum better educated about the issues and either lend their support or express their concern to their elected officials,�

Shinderman said. “Our objective is to really open this up to a broader community dialogue.�

begin paying restitution while in prison.

The Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office seized $9,300 in cash from Wisehart when he was arrested, McIver said; that money will be held until the court rules on exactly how much restitution he will be required to pay.

Three arrested in motel heroin bust The Central Oregon Drug Enforcement Team announced the recent arrest of three men suspected of selling heroin from a Bend motel room Tuesday.

Following surveillance of the Rainbow Motel on Franklin Avenue, detectives with CODE executed a search warrant of Room 104 on Jan. 6. Detectives seized 6.3 grams of heroin and other materials, and arrested three suspects — Davin Wagner, 27, Scott Wilson, 23, and Taylor Faulkner, 22, all of Bend. The three were lodged at the Deschutes County Jail on suspicion of possession, delivery and manufacture of a controlled substance, and conspiracy to deliver heroin.

Juniper Continued from C1 Though much of the course will remain as it is — at least for the foreseeable future — there will be some new staff, beginning at the top. Juniper’s Head Golf Professional Bruce Wattenburger has taken on interim general manager duties, Isaak said. CourseCo plans to conduct a national search for the next general manager.

A major benefit of Juniper, Isaak said, is that not a lot has to be changed to turn it around.

Outside factors, including the recession, may slow how quickly financial improvement arrives. Still, there are adjustments CourseCo can make to help improve the course’s performance, Isaak said.

Because CourseCo operates 20 courses, it has better purchasing power than a single course. Isaak also wants to improve the service at Juniper and attract more tournaments.

As Isaak sees it, the new management must balance between attracting more golfers and pleasing the loyal players. “The primary mission is to build support for the golf course,� Isaak said. “A consequential objective, is to operate the golf course in a manner that continues to satisfy those people who have supported (Juniper).�

Isaak expects CourseCo’s contract with Redmond to eventually stretch beyond the current five years. In more than two decades of business, CourseCo has never lost a client, Isaak said.

still being held at the jail as of Tuesday night, while Wilson had posted bail.

Kellstrom to remain Sisters mayor Lon Kellstrom will continue as the mayor of Sisters after winning a 3-2 vote last week.

In Sisters, city councilors elect the mayor every two years after each election. Councilors Pat Thompson and David Asson both voted for Kellstrom, who also voted for himself.

Councilors Wendy Holzman and Sharlene Weed voted against Kellstrom.

Kellstrom, Asson and Thompson also voted together to elect Asson as council president.

Both Kellstrom and Asson will serve two year terms in their positions.

Even though he does not have an estimate for when the course will again be able to make debt payments, Isaak is confident that will eventually happen. “The fundamentals are really pretty good,� Isaak said.

The course’s debt dates to 2003, when the city backed a roughly $6 million bond to build the existing 18-hole Juniper and replace the old one near Redmond Airport.

The city recently agreed to a five-year contract with CourseCo, which pays the company $95,000 in the first year. For the next two years, the fee increases by $10,000. In the fourth and fifth years, the fee will be adjusted based on the Consumer Price Index.

If Juniper makes gross revenues between $2.4 million and $2.8 million in a year, CourseCo will also receive 15 percent of any revenue in that range. If Juniper’s gross revenues clear $2.8 million, then CourseCo would receive 25 percent of revenue above that mark. The city arrived at $2.4 million because it believes at that point Juniper would be able to make debt payments. By making more than $2.8 million in revenues, the course would be sustainable, according a city staff report.

Gross revenues at Juniper last cleared $2.4 million in the 2006-07 fiscal year. In 2009-10, the course made $1.78 million in gross revenues and could make about $1.9 million this year.

Bend Science Station students dissect shark as part of oceanography series The Bulletin

Noah Kokkeler, 12, looked down at the piece of gray flesh he was holding in his gloves, realizing too late what it was.

He had gone too far with the pair of scissors.

“We accidently cut the heart in half because we didn’t know it was there,” Noah said.

“Oops,” said his lab partner, Kate Samples, 13.

Noah looked up and grinned.

On Wednesday morning, about 10 students in the Bend Science Station’s Outrageous Oceanography course dissected dogfish sharks to better understand the anatomy of underwater animals. The class is taught by science station founder David “Bermi” Bermudez.

Most of the students enrolled in the three-month-long oceanography class are home-schooled fifth- through eighth-graders.

The class is held every Wednesday morning. The students have studied a variety of topics, including ocean currents, waves and sonar technology.

‘He really brings the textbooks to life’ “Bermi puts so much energy and thought into teaching them,” said Lisa Brass, who helps out in the class her son is enrolled in.

“He really brings the textbooks to life. It’s hard not to be interested in science after coming here.”

The Bend Science Station offers science classes year-round to elementary through high school students. Covering areas such as physiology, biology and geology, the nonprofit organization has worked to expand science education in Central Oregon since 2002.

Wednesday’s session began

to raw fish.

— Noah Kokkeler, student, Bend Science Station with an overview of the dogfish shark’s anatomy on an overhead projector diagram. Bermudez discussed the various fins, organs and senses of the shark. After Bermudez went over the shark’s highly developed sense of smell, Noah raised his hand.

“So is that why it confuses them so much if you punch them in the nose?” asked Noah.

Students in the class laughed.

After the overview was finished, it was time for the highly anticipated dissection. Bermudez passed out sticks of gum, reviewed what to do if students felt nauseous and broke students up into pairs. Once everyone had secured gloves, Bermudez opened a green plastic tub and began handing out the shark specimens, each of which was about the size of a salmon. The room was filled with a rank odor.

The students began cutting along the jaw line, opening up a point of entry for the rest of the dissection process. As students cut through the shark’s gray flesh, oil oozed onto the paper table protector. Earlier in the session, students were told to expect oil, as sharks produce it in large quantities to help them stay afloat.

“It’s all squishy,” said Noah of the shark. Though this was the first time Noah had dissected a shark, he said he was no stranger

Cries of “Eeew!” “Gross!” and “Sick!” echoed across the lab as students ventured further in the dissection process. Most of the students participated in cutting into the fish. However, Evan Brass, 12, decided to watch the process from afar while his lab partner took over the cutting duties.

“I’ve watched dissections before, but I don’t actually like doing them,” said Evan. “I’m not interested in taking something apart.”

Despite not wanting to partake in the activity, Evan said he has really enjoyed the oceanography class, especially the segments about water and dolphins.

What Evan lacked in enthusiasm for the dissection process, his lab partner, Orion Junkins, 11, more than made up for. Orion gave his shark a nickname.

“Joey Joe Joe Junior has no gut,” said Orion, holding up the shark’s stomach.

Many students found remnants of an animal’s last meal in a stomach they dissected. Briley Johnson, 14, found a large shrimp.

“It’s OK, I guess,” Briley said of the dissection. “But this part’s kind of sick,” she said, nodding to the shark’s open stomach.

Toward the end of the class, students were able to “free-cut,” and explore other parts of the shark.

Many students went for the brain, including Orion, who while attempting to find it, ended up popping the shark’s eyeball by accident with the scalpel. Oily

Orion, seemingly unfazed by the incident, continued to search for the brain.

By session’s end, each student had a firsthand understanding of a shark’s anatomy. And perhaps more importantly, all the students managed to hold on to their breakfasts.

“It was pretty epic,” Tristan Helmich, 13, said of the dissection experience. “This class is really outside of the box — but in a good way.”

Two informational meetings for prospective students interested in attending Rimrock Alternative Learning Middle School next school year will take place on Feb. 24 and Feb. 28, according to a news release.

The meetings will be held from 6:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the school on 63175 OB Riley Road.

REALMS is a public charter school in Bend, and admission to the school is lottery based. Those interested in applying are encouraged to attend the informational meetings.

Alternative schools critic files complaint EUGENE — A longtime critic of the Eugene School District’s alternative schools has filed a federal complaint alleging intentional discrimination by recommending those schools be spared from closure.

Nancy Willard filed the complaint with the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights in Seattle, The RegisterGuard reported.

Willard claims it is discriminatory for Eugene Superintendent George Russell to recommend closing five neighborhood elementary schools over the next two years while leaving the district’s six alternative elementary schools untouched.

Agricultural Education Foundation offering scholarship programs The Oregon Agricultural Education Foundation will offer two scholarship programs for the 2011-12 school year.

Oregon Farm Bureau Memorial Scholarships award 10 to 12 scholarships each year and are open to Oregon high school graduates preparing for a forestry- or agriculture-related career, including students who plan to attend a school outside Oregon.

The Oregon Farm Bureau Associate Member Scholarship is funded by COUNTRY Financial and awards one, $1,000 scholarship to an Oregon high school graduate with an associate membership in Oregon Farm Bureau who plans to earn a bachelor’s degree at a junior college, fouryear college or university. The student can also be a dependent of an associate member.

The deadline for both scholarship applications is March 1. For further information or for applications, go to www.oregonfb. org/programs/scholarships.

IN BRIEF

there are problems with a twotiered inequitable system of schools,” Willard said this week in reference to school district officials and board members.

Willard e-mailed a copy of her complaint to school board members last week.

School board Chairman Craig Smith said he had received it but had not read it, and had no comment.

District spokeswoman Kerry Delf said the district generally does not respond to such complaints.

A call to the Department of Education in Washington, D.C., and an e-mail to the civil rights office in Seattle were not immediately returned Tuesday.

Board member Jim Torrey said Willard’s assertion that closing

neighborhood schools but not any alternative schools is intentionally discriminatory “would be a stretch.”

Torrey said he agrees with some of Willard’s views when it comes to inequity in the district’s school choice system, but he is skeptical that filing a complaint with a federal agency is the way to bring about change.

“I personally feel we should be more concerned about the equitable distribution (of disadvantaged students) across the district,” Torrey said.

To deal with an unprecedented budget shortfall of between $22 million and $28 million, Russell is proposing several cutbacks that include employee layoffs and increased class sizes along with the elementary school closures.

SDC agreement is good for all

S

ystems development charges are Oregon’s way of allowing cities, counties and park districts to hit newcomers up for the added pressure they will put on water, sewer, street

and park systems. Developers, however, may be reimbursed for improvements they themselves make. While Bend has generally reimbursed for a complete street project, it has discussed the possibility of using a smaller figure. Now the city and builders are apparently ready to agree not to change that portion of SDC rules, a decision that makes sense for all concerned.

What the city had proposed has a sort of logic to it, actually. Say a planned subdivision would require that a two-lane road be added to the city’s grid, but the city’s projections show that other growth would require another two lanes be built, and the developer agrees to build all four lanes. Currently the city reimburses the developer his transportation fees for building all four lanes, though it has discussed changing that figure.

Instead, the city recently proposed a system to reimburse developers only for the portion of a project that benefits the city as a whole, but not for the part that directly benefits the proposed development. Thus, if a developer needed to build a two-lane road to provide access to his new subdivision, but city projections showed that increased traffic would require four lanes there in the next few years, the developer might well build all four lanes. As things now stand, he’d get back transportation SDCs for the full project.

The city proposed changing that, however, so the developer could collect only on the two lanes that the city figures aren’t directly tied to the planned subdivision. After all, two lanes benefit the developer directly and, the thinking went, he should not be reimbursed for building them. There is a kind of sense to that, but it disappears on closer examination.

That’s because even those two lanes that provide access to the new subdivision will be used by anyone driving the improved road, making travel easier for all residents, both new and old.

In fact, that’s true of all improve-

Sidewalks and other improvements also benefit the entire city, not just the last guy through the door. And, in fact, the city need not use the SDCs it collects anywhere near the development for which they’re collected. They can and frequently are used elsewhere, where the immediate need for improvement is greater.

Systems development charges continue to be a tricky proposition for all involved, as the current discussion makes clear. Creating and then assessing them requires a kind of parsing of the benefits of public amenities that cannot be done in anything but a theoretical way, and one man’s theory is often another’s wild guess. The city clearly recognizes the problem, and its willingness to stick with its current reimbursement system simply acknowledges that fact.

No more for road map

D

eschutes County commissioners are being asked to more than double what they’ve spent on an economic forecast by California-based economist Bill Watkins. They shouldn’t be in a hurry to say “yes.”

The county awarded $2,000 over the summer to Watkins and an outfit from North Dakota to produce a “1,000-day roadmap” to economic recovery for the area, and the city of Bend chipped in another $1,000. Their report will be presented at a breakfast Jan. 27. Meanwhile, Watkins will meet with commissioners during their Jan. 19 work session.

As the commission’s newest mem-

ber, Tony DeBone of La Pine, notes, the county is not exactly rolling in extra cash these days. To spend an additional $3,000 — or even $1,000, as Commissioner Tammy Baney seems inclined to do — makes little sense.

Instead, the county should do for Watkins what it does for the other economic forecasters working in the area. If the breakfast at the end of the month is the sort of thing commissioners normally would attend at county expense, then by all means they should do so. At that point, they ought to judge the quality of what it is they’ve bought. Unless it’s staggeringly good, they ought to say “thanks,” close up the checkbook and move on.

Survey politicians

Watch Darfur

Now that new faces and balance of power have been seated in Washington, do you really feel any safer or assured of an about face on how things are done in Washington? I don’t. It is still run by politicians who make decision on what will serve their party and themselves first. Politicians are the problem. GOOOH (“Get Out of Our House”) is the answer.

GOOOH’s concept is to garner at least 2,000 serious members in each of the 435 districts of the U.S. House of Representatives. Every member is asked to complete a 118-item questionnaire with just a “yes” or “no” as to how they would vote. It is not mandatory, but is desirable and does not take that long. Any member who does so can throw their hat in the ring. Through a process of local eliminations, the mem-

Three cheers for those, like The Bulletin, that don’t let atrocities go unreported.

Respect others In response to Ray Powell’s Jan. 16 letter: As an independent voter, I can

agree that the rhetoric has been nasty at times. But to attribute this nastiness to only one side shows deafness to what comes from our own president.

It would be good for our president to also stop making statements calling opponents “enemies” that need to be “punished” or kept in the “back seat.”

It is not hateful to pray for failure or destruction of policy in which someone disagrees, conservative or liberal.

Some of our president’s policies are viewed by many as anti-American and have some hoping and/or praying for failure of those policies, not for failure of our government.

The facts are still immerging on the shooter, and it is absurd to attribute these shootings to anything other than the mental illness of someone who seemed to hold contradictory positions not fitting into any political mold. The shootings could have easily happened at places where he had prior incidents.

“Rush to blame,” as the letter was headlined, is truly what Powell’s piece did. The words chosen, calling someone “radical” who might agree with a conservative pundit and have a different opinion than his, show lack of respect for others’ opinions.

Many media outlets proved deafness and bias by rushing to blame and later had to painfully practice real journalism and set the record straight. Incorrectly placing blame and not respecting the opinions of others unnecessarily heightens the nastiness.

Access to vaccines could save the lives of millions of children WASHINGTON — he editors of the British Medical Journal recently concluded that a 1998 study ringing alarm bells on a possible connection between vaccines and autism was actually an “elaborate fraud.” It is the culmination of a more than decade-long controversy in which the charge was initially and frighteningly plausible, then embattled, then discredited by large-scale studies.

This is a particular blow to the parents of children with autism, who deserve more explanation and support than they are generally given. Autism has stubbornly resisted simple scientific explanation. This calls for more research and more practical help for parents — not less.

The vaccine controversy in America and Europe was made possible by the success of vaccines. If children in developed countries faced the serious prospect of contracting measles, mumps and rubella — leading, in some cases, to pneumonia, seizures, deafness, brain damage, infection of the spinal cord or

T

arthritis — the value of vaccines would be more immediately obvious. During the 20th century, an average of 650,000 people died each year from measles, polio, rubella, smallpox and diphtheria.

Now the number is less than 100.

Only countries that currently possess herd immunity debate the importance of vaccines. Yet not every country enjoys such an advantage.

Vaccines are among the greatest scientific contributions to human welfare.

They are also some of the largest humanitarian contributions of developed nations to the rest of the world. So it is unfortunate that a decade of vaccine controversy has overshadowed a decade of vaccine miracles.

In 2000, with startup money from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization (GAVI) began operation, with the goal of introducing new or underused vaccines into poor countries.

GAVI is an acronym that reeks of global bureaucracy, slow-moving secretariats and Geneva consultations. The organi-

MICHAEL GERSON zation, in contrast, has turned out to be innovative and effective.

The alliance — composed of foundations, donor governments, vaccine manufacturers, the World Bank and the World Heath Organization — has employed the free market instead of fighting it. It has raised private capital, and it has made advance commitments to purchase vaccines, in exchange for pledges by pharmaceutical companies to expand production and provide vaccines at lower prices. It has helped to strengthen the “cold chain” that allows for vaccine delivery at proper temperatures.

The result? By the end of 2008, 192 million children had received vaccinations against hepatitis B, and 41.8 million were protected against Hib (a type

of bacteria that causes meningitis). During its first decade, GAVI-funded vaccines for these diseases — along with pertussis, measles, yellow fever and polio — prevented more than 5 million premature deaths.

When it comes to human lives, the word “million” should not be passed over without comment. It was the unit of measure for 20th-century genocides.

So it is remarkable that a poorly named international organization, almost unknown to Americans, with no apparent instinct for self-promotion, should count 5 million success stories. It is a demonstration, for anyone who doubted it, that foreign assistance can be effectively redesigned and focused on achievable outcomes. It is also living proof that science, guided by conscience, is one of the most powerful, hopeful forces of history.

This demonstration that the rapid expansion of vaccination is possible in the developing world creates an ethical challenge of its own. A vaccine for malaria is a few years away. Vaccines for HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and dengue fe-

ver are probably more distant. But two vaccines — for rotavirus and pneumococcus — are currently available. These diseases, causing diarrhea and pneumonia, are the leading causes of death for young children in poor countries.

But just a few early treatments would bring a lifetime of immunity. The Gates Foundation estimates that large-scale vaccination, in these cases, could prevent the deaths of 7.6 million children under 5 in the next decade. Again, note the “millions.”

Many global problems are desperate but seem beyond our ability to comprehend or resolve. Sufficient support for GAVI from governments, foundations and individuals would solve much of this problem. The answer for millions of dying children does not need to be invented, studied or tested. All this has already been done. Their hope lies within a locked room. And those with keys gain responsibilities.

Alfred Abe Walradt LaVonne Kay June 30, 1916 - January 12, 2011 Blakely

Donald C. Boyd

Alfred Abe Walradt, age 94, a longtime resident of Pleasant Ridge and Caldwell, Idaho, died January 12, 2011, in Prineville, Oregon, where he moved in 2008 to live near his daughter. He was born in 1916, in Nampa, Idaho, the eldest son of Floyd Glen & Grace Griffin Walradt.

Al grew up in Caldwell and Alfred Walradt was active in Boy Scouts in his youth. He graduated from Caldwell High School in 1934 and worked for McNeel Lumber Company as a sheet metal worker and furnace installer before and after World War II. From 1942 to 1946, he worked in the Puget Sound Navy Yard at Bremerton, Washington, as a metal worker and learned the art of metal spinning. While working there, he received two citations from the Navy Department for the invention of labor saving tools. In 1951, he went to work for Crookham Seed Company, retiring as Plant Superintendent in 1978.

Alfred married his childhood sweetheart, Marjorie Ballard, on July 26, 1936, and together they were active in community and 4-H club work in the Pleasant Ridge area.

After his retirement, they traveled extensively in Europe, New Zealand, and Australia, as well as throughout the United States in his new career as a freelance consulting engineer.

He was a former member of the Boise Local of the Sheet Metal Workers Union and was active on the Building Trades Council. He was a volunteer fireman for the Caldwell Fire Department for 29 years, retiring in 1986, and was a Commissioner for the Caldwell Rural Fire District.

Through his work with the fire department, he was trained as an Explosive Ordnance Reconnaissance Agent for the Army in Canyon County and was a Radiological Monitoring Instructor for the County.

Al was an avid fisherman, big game hunter, and was a life member of the National Rifle Association. An active historian, he was a member of both Canyon County and Owyhee County Historical Societies. He was an associate member of the Idaho Chapter of FarmHouse Fraternity and a supporter of the University of Idaho research programs.

He supported the Red Cross Bloodmobile by donating 16 gallons of blood over the years. He was a member of the Caldwell Methodist Church, Caldwell Ramblers Good Sam Club, Caldwell Rod & Gun Club, Pleasant Ridge Grange, Greenleaf Riding Club and Owyhee Gem & Mineral Society.

Al was preceded in death by his wife, Marjorie in 2008, his parents, and brothers, Bud F. Walradt and George Lyle Walradt. He is survived by his son, John P. Walradt (Anne) of Holmdel, New Jersey, his daughter, Glenda Janssen (Hugh) of Prineville, Oregon, seven grandchildren (JoAnna Janssen Felsenthal, Katie Janssen Lane, Julie Janssen Fritz, Daniel Walradt, Michael Walradt, James Walradt and Elizabeth Walradt) and five great grandchildren.

Memorial gifts may be made to the Canyon County Historical Society (PO Box 595, Nampa, ID 83653) or the Owyhee County Historical Society (PO Box 67, Murphy, ID 83650).

Arrangements are in the care of the Prineville Funeral Home. A memorial service will be held at a future date at the Caldwell Methodist Church in Caldwell, Idaho.

Donald C. Boyd died at his home with his wife by his side, in Solvang, CA, on December 6, 2010. The cause was complications of pulmonary fibrosis brought on by flying as a crop duster nearly 60 years ago at various locations throughout Central Oregon.

He was born Donald Boyd in Bend on June 2, 1924. Don graduated from Bend High School in 1942. He played football for three years with no neglect of his school work. He earned a Bachelor’s degree from the University of Oregon in Far Eastern Studies in 1950. He served in the Navy prior to enrolling at the UofO. Ever since he was a youngster, he had a consuming interest in things related to aviation. This manifested itself by the drawings and paintings of all kinds of aircraft. He was also absorbed in building of model airplanes, all of which led to his long career as a pilot.

Don retired in 1982 as a Flight Captain after 30 years with Northwest Airlines.

During his long and successful career, he flew a wide variety of aircraft but primarily 747’s.

Surviving Don are his wife, Sina, son, Phillip, and daughter, Laura; granddaughter, Sarah.

March 16, 1945 - Jan. 12, 2011 Born in Scotland, South Dakota to Freddy & Grace Jochims. LaVonne passed away January 12, 2011, from aggressive brain cancer at home with her family by her side.

She moved to Newberg at age 11 with her family where, upon graduating from High LaVonne Kay School, she Blakely became a licensed beautician. In 1965, she married Gary and moved to Seattle, where they had two daughters (Taunia and Pattricia).

They moved to Madras in 1975, where she drove school bus often to Warm Springs, safely transporting students to Madras for school. In 1987, she received multiple letters of commendation for stopping a fight that left one girl bleeding from her face, neck and arm and applying first aid until EMTs could transport the student.

LaVonne then became a teacher's aid at Warm Springs Elementary School.

She spent many years working with the kindergartners, teachers (Ms. Laura Fuentes, Ms. Renee Rodin, Mrs. Jennifer Oppenhiemer, and more); aides (Buster) and Principal Dawn Smith and many more, to help these kids in many ways from education, clothing, toys, love and lots of hugs. She cherished the many hugs from the kids. Everywhere she went, she thought of the kids and would often pick up toys she thought they would love.

She cared for her husband at their home until his death in 2000.

LaVonne was baptized in 1961 as one of Jehovah's Witnesses. After retiring in 2004 from secular work, she volunteered full time to teach others about God's word. She loved to share the Bible with others and it saddened her greatly to give that up due to health reasons in 2009.

LaVonne also loved teaching her twin granddaughters how to bake (especially home made bread and buns) and grow a beautiful garden. She always shared her peas, carrots, and tomatoes with the girls. She also enjoyed playing any type of card or dice game and eating popcorn whenever anyone would sit down with her. She cherished many memories including walking on stilts and playing baseball with her dad and sisters; also of fishing/ camping with her husband.

She was preceded in death by parents, Freddy and Grace Jochims, also husband, Gary Blakely.

She is survived by children, Taunia Blakely of Bend, OR, Pattricia Keller with husband, Matt of Gresham, OR; grand children, Jessica Dubisar of Redmond, OR, Rebecca Dubisar of Medford, OR, Tanner Keller of Gresham, OR, Kori Keller of Gresham, OR; sisters, Dorothy Sullens of Madras, OR, Phyllis Lundy of Hubbard, OR, and Sandra Filbert of Madras, OR; and a large, loving, close family of over 50 including wonderful brothers-in-law and sisters-inlaw, John Sullens, Chuck Lundy, Bill Filbert, Don Blakely, Cook Blakely and Judy Blakely, 11 nieces and nephews, 19 great nieces and nephews as well as two great-great-nephews.

ASCOCC Continued from C1 In an October memo, ASCOCC representatives wrote that Lynch would, among other things, work to clarify the council’s autonomy and its authority to allocate student fees, and ensure the college doesn’t dissolve the council.

College Relations Director Ron Paradis said the group has scheduled three meetings for the winter term.

“Setting schedules that include students is very difficult,” he said. “The goal is to have something (finalized) by mid-March.”

One of those meetings was held Tuesday, although Paradis said college officials would not discuss the content of the meetings until the groups reach a final decision.

COCC, ASCOCC not talking to media ASCOCC representative Brenda Pierce wrote in an e-mail that COCC and ASCOCC officials agreed in December “not to talk to the media throughout the process of these discussions to keep the integrity of the process intact.

We are moving forward.”

In addition to the meetings with COCC officials, ASCOCC had plenty of other issues it faced during the fall term. The student government has engaged in a battle with the student newspaper over public records and allegations published in the paper saying it misused student fees, and also faced a recall effort.

Taran Underdal, the student activities coordinator for COCC, said no progress has been made on the recall effort.

Beer and golf are natural partners just about anywhere, especially in a brewery hotbed such as Central Oregon.

Golf and skiing are a little more like Felix and Oscar in most places. But not in this region, a rare place that offers both activities every spring just minutes away from one another.

Todd Cover (say it: CO-ver), a former head golf professional at Bend’s Widgi Creek Golf Club, thinks he might have found a winning idea by letting outsiders in on what local residents already know: Central Oregon has much more than golf to offer.

Cover, 38, last year started Epic Golf Adventures. The fledgling business is attempting to attract golfers to this region by offering more than a couple of rounds on the links.

“I’m more focused on bringing specialized groups to Bend, accenting not only the golf in Central Oregon, but the outdoor activities, whether it be skiing or fishing,” Cover says. “The idea is to maybe turn (golf travelers) on to something that they would never do.”

Epic Golf Adventures is in its infancy, with just one trip completed.

But already this year, Cover is planning to host a “Ski and Tee” trip in May, a “Cleek and Reel” June tour — which includes golf and fishing — and a “Bird-

ies and Breweries” excursion in August.

All the all-inclusive trips (everything is included, except travel to Central Oregon), combine golf, instruction from PGA-certified Cover or from guest pros, and nongolf activities.

An avid traveler and outdoorsman himself, Cover is hoping to combine all his passions together in one trip.

“My focus and intention is conscious fun, making people enjoy each other,” Cover says. “Most of the times that I have gone on trips, you meet new people ultimately having exposure to other folks with like minds.”

Combining some of the activities and attractions for which Central Oregon is famous makes a lot of sense, especially at a time when local golf courses find themselves in fierce competition for recreational play, says Mike Palen, director of instruction at Sunriver Resort.

Storm pull away to beat Panthers Summit takes 53-35 victory over Redmond Bulletin staff report REDMOND — Both Summit and Redmond got off to a hot start Tuesday. But only the Storm were able to sustain the pace.

Summit blasted past the Panthers 53-35 in an Intermountain Hybrid girls basketball matchup in Redmond Tuesday night despite a competitive first quarter.

After a 10-10 first period tie, Summit opened up an eight-point advantage in the second quarter.

“We had four turnovers in a row and that got them hopped up,” Redmond coach Nathan Covill said.

Senior post Taylor Pierce posted a gamehigh 22 points for the Storm (9-6 overall), Sarah Edwards added 11 and Kristen Parr contributed 10 points in the road win.

The Panthers (4-10 overall) chopped into Summit’s lead in the third period — again matching the Storm point for point — but the surge was short lived. Summit outscored the Panthers by 10 points in the fourth quarter.

“Raja Char did a great job of penetrating when we broke down defensively,” Covill noted.

Char, Summit’s freshman guard, finished with six points.

“We finished well around the basket and were knocking down free throws,” Summit coach Ryan Cruz said about the road win.

PREP BOYS BASKETBALL

Cougars pound Cowboys Bulletin staff report Mountain View posted its sixth win in seven games Tuesday, topping Crook County 65-39 in Intermountain Hybrid boys basketball action.

James Reid scored a game-high 22 points for the host Cougars to go along with his six rebounds and nine assists. Mountain View, which lost to the Cowboys 67-63 in Prineville in December, outrebounded Crook County 36-26 and limited the visiting team to just 26.5percent shooting from the floor.

“Defensively we did a good job,” Cougar coach Craig Reid said. “We watched film from (Friday’s

John Carroll added seven points for Mountain View and Blake Bosch contributed six points and seven rebounds for the Cougars (95 overall). Travis Bartels paced Crook County with 14 points and six rebounds.

Mountain View continues Intermountain Hybrid play on Saturday with a road contest at Redmond. The Cowboys are back in action Friday with a Hybrid game against Bend High in Prineville.

S B Baseball • AP sources: Papelbon, Ellsbury get Boston deals: The Boston Red Sox have reached agreement on one-year deals with closer Jonathan Papelbon and center fielder Jacoby Ellsbury, two people familiar with the contracts told The Associated Press. The base salaries are $12 million for Papelbon and $2.4 million for Ellsbury. They were Boston’s only arbitration-eligible players. Papelbon is coming off his worst season with a 5-7 record, 3.90 ERA and 37 saves in 45 opportunities. The 27-year-old Ellsbury would receive an additional $50,000 for 600 plate appearances and another $50,000 for 700. His salary last season was $496,500.

• Prince Fielder, Brewers settle at $15.5 million: Setting himself up for an even bigger payday a year from now, Prince Fielder agreed Tuesday to a $15.5 million contract with the Milwaukee Brewers in the largest one-year deal for a player not yet eligible for free agency. On a day when 67 of the 119 players who filed for salary arbitration reached agreements, AL MVP Josh Hamilton, major league home run champion Jose Bautista and Houston pitcher Wandy Rodriguez submitted the largest proposed salaries when players and teams swapped proposed figures. Hamilton asked Texas for $12 million and was offered $8.7 million; Bautista asked Toronto for $10.5 million and was offered $7.6 million; Rodriguez asked for $10.25 million and was offered $8 million.

• Playoff star Ross reaches 1-yr deal with Giants: Postseason star Cody Ross has avoided salary arbitration with the World Series champion San Francisco Giants, agreeing to terms on a $6.3 million, one-year contract Tuesday.

The deal marks a nice raise for the former kid rodeo clown.

Ross earned $4.45 million last season, when he joined the Giants on a waiver claim from Florida on Aug. 22.

• Royals pitcher Meche retires, leaves $12M salary: Royals pitcher Gil Meche retired on Tuesday at age 32, walking away from a $12 million salary rather than face shoulder surgery that could have ended his season before it ever started. Meche signed a $55 million, five-year deal with Kansas City as a free agent before the 2007 season.

But the right-hander had shoulder problems last year while going 0-5 with a 5.69 ERA.

Football • Seattle fires offensive coordinator Jeremy Bates: Tom Cable is headed home. Jeremy Bates is looking for a new one. Leave it to Pete Carroll to keep things interesting around Seattle Seahawks headquarters just two days after their season ended. Carroll and the Seahawks fired Bates, the team’s offensive coordinator, on Tuesday morning, ending a rocky one-year return to the NFL for Bates during which the Seahawks ranked among the worst offenses in the NFL. By the afternoon, Carroll was bringing coaches on board. He hired Cable after nearly three years as Raiders head coach. The Seahawks also announced that Todd Wash would become the defensive line coach, leaving behind the same position with Tampa Bay. Wash replaces Dan Quinn, who will become the defensive coordinator at Florida.

Hockey • Staal, Lidstrom will be NHL All-Star captains: Carolina Hurricanes forward Eric Staal and Detroit Red Wings defenseman Nicklas Lidstrom were selected as the NHL All-Star team captains, in charge of selecting the players for each squad from a group already chosen by the fans.

The All-Star game is Jan. 30 in Raleigh, N.C. The players selected for the game voted on the captains and the teams will be named after Staal and Lidstrom. The captains will select their teams in a live draft two days before the game.

TENNIS: AUSTRALIAN OPEN

Wozniacki, Henin head to third round

By John Pye

Venus Williams recovers from injury to advance

The Associated Press

MELBOURNE, Australia — Caroline Wozniacki advanced to the third round of the Australian Open with an emphatic 6-1, 6-0 win over American Vania King on Wednesday as her first major atop the rankings continued to gather momentum.

The 20-year-old Danish player was never troubled in the 58-minute match, breaking 88thranked King’s serve to finish it off and reach the third round for a 13th consecutive Grand Slam tournament. She has yet to win a major, but has held the No. 1 ranking since October and can retain it by reaching the semifinals here.

To get to the semis, she might have to beat seven-time Grand Slam winner Justine Henin, who continued her comeback from injury with a 6-1, 6-3 win over Elena Baltacha of Britain on center court.

The pair could meet in the quarterfinals. Henin will have to get through a tough match against two-time major winner Svetlana Kuznetsova just to get past the third round. The 23-seeded Kuznetsova beat Dutch qualifier Arantxa Rus 6-1, 6-4.

“I have a lot of good memories, almost all good memories, from Melbourne,” said Henin, the 2004 Australian champion and runner-up here in 2006 and last year, when she was returning from a career break from the tour.

Her comeback was stalled after Wimbledon — she couldn’t play because of an elbow injury — and is making another return of sorts at Melbourne Park.

“I’ve been fighting hard the last few months and it’s great to be back in Australia.”

No. 8 Victoria Azarenka, the 2010 quarterfinalist who has lost to Serena Williams the past three years here, beat Andrea Hlavackova 6-4, 6-4.

On the men’s side, Wimbledon finalist Tomas Berdych needed four match points, struggling to finish it off with his serve in the last game, to beat Philipp Kohlschreiber 4-6, 6-2, 6-3, 6-4.

MELBOURNE, Australia — Venus Williams has recovered from an injury to beat Sandra Zahlavova 6-7 (6), 6-0, 6-4 and advance to the third round at the Australian Open.

Williams was choking back tears and needed to leave the court for a medical timeout at the end of the tiebreaker after twisting sharply for a swinging backhand volley on the final point. The appeared to hurt her stomach or groin.

Williams returned with her right thigh heavily strapped, and dominated the second set.

It took the attention, for a while, off her revealing lattice-style top with multicolored satin short skirt that barely concealed her self-described fleshcoloured “nude shorts.”

Williams’ sister, Serena, is missing the tournament with an injury.

Andrew Brownbill / The Associated Press

Andy Roddick makes a backhand return to Igor Kunitsyn during their second-round match at the Australian Open tennis championships in Melbourne, Australia, today.

No. 8 Andy Roddick had no such trouble, firing his 17th ace to finish off a 7-6 (7), 6-2, 6-3 second-round win over Igor Kunitsyn of Russia.

The former No. 1-ranked Roddick is into the third round at Melbourne Park for the ninth straight time.

He said he was finding his range.

“I think when you’re confident, the court just makes sense; decisions come easier to you,” he said. “A lot of it comes naturally. There’s not a

whole lot of thought process. You’re not forcing a lot. The ball kind of, I guess, reacts the way you want it to.

“So I feel comfortable out there right now.”

Roddick’s friend and U.S. Davis Cup teammate Mardy Fish made a second-round exit, the No. 16 seed losing 1-6, 6-3, 6-3, 6-3 to Tommy Robredo.

No. 9 Fernando Verdasco rallied from two sets down to beat Serbia’s Janko Tipsarevic 2-6, 46, 6-4, 7-6 (0), 6-0, conceding just one point on his serve in the last set. Verdasco has a history of five-set matches here — his 5-hour, 14-minute semifinal loss to Rafael Nadal two years ago was the longest match ever at the Australian Open.

No. 17 Ivan Ljubicic and No. 28 Richard Gasquet also advanced, while Japan’s Kei Nishikori beat Germany’s Florian Mayer 6-4, 6-3, 0-6, 6-3.

MEN’S COLLEGE BASKETBALL ROUNDUP

Michigan St. falls to Illinois The Associated Press CHAMPAIGN, Ill. — Illinois needed something to feel good about after a rough stretch this month.

There were the losses, one at Wisconsin that the Illini could stomach and another at unranked Penn State that was tougher to take.

Then there was the rumor — quickly denied — that freshman Jereme Richmond wanted to transfer after missing practice and heading home before Saturday’s loss to the Badgers.

All of this with No. 1 Ohio State headed to town Saturday.

No. 23 Illinois found the answer to many of those problems Tuesday night, getting 20 points from Brandon Paul, 14 from Richmond and several late free throws that helped hold off 17thranked Michigan State, 71-62.

“I think everyone goes through these stretches somewhere in their schedule and we’re just fortunate enough to get (a win),” Illinois coach Bruce Weber said.

“Now we’ve got to see if we can get the second one on Saturday, and it’s not going to be any easier.”

The Illini (14-5, 4-3 Big Ten) led by as many as 10, at 53-43, on a 3-pointer by Paul with 13:08 to play.

PREP ROUNDUP

NBA ROUNDUP

Strong defense leads Storm boys hoops over Panthers Summit holds Redmond to 36 points in Hybrid basketball victory Bulletin staff report Summit more than lived up to its pregame motto of, “Do more than what is expected of you,” Tuesday against Redmond.

“We were at a fork in the road and we could have cashed in our chips,” said Summit boys basketball coach Dan Munson. “But that’s not what competitive athletes do.”

Playing their best defense of the year, the Storm rolled past the Panthers 45-36 at Summit High.

Redmond had beaten the Storm by 20 points five weeks ago.

Senior Mitch Wettig posted a game-high 14 points for Summit and sophomore Austin Peters added 12.

Connor Lau was the only Redmond player to reach double digits, scoring 11 points. Brad Carter contributed nine points for the Panthers.

Redmond had an off night at the free-throw line, missing 11 of 17 attempts.

“Our guys came out with a renewed sense of urgency,” Munson added.

“They continue to be coachable.”

The Storm (5-10) are off until Tuesday when they host Bend. The Panthers (5-7) have followed a five game win streak with five consecutive defeats and will host Lincoln in an important Class 6A Special District 1 game on Friday night.

Miami Heat’s LeBron James (6) argues a call with the referee in overtime during Tuesday’s game in Miami. The Hawks defeated the Heat 93-89 in overtime.

Heat continue to struggle, fall to Hawks The Associated Press MIAMI — Close games have been a strength for Atlanta, a weakness for Miami.

The Hawks couldn’t have been happier to see those trends continue.

And suddenly, the Southeast Division looks very much like a three-team race.

Josh Smith made a go-ahead layup with 34.7 seconds left in overtime, Joe Johnson and Jamal Crawford each scored 19 points and the Hawks beat the Heat 93-89 on Tuesday night, sending Miami to a fourth straight loss and clawing within two games of the division lead.

“Everything we got tonight,” Hawks coach Larry Drew said, “we really had to earn.”

In games decided by five points or fewer, Atlanta is now 8-4. Miami is only 1-7, the lone victory coming when the Heat simply stole one from Washington in the final seconds.

“This was a tough one,” Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. “No other way to say it. ... It was tough to get a real handle and grip on both sides of the floor.”

Epic Continued from D1 Though he has taken a secondary role in the business, planning to serve mainly as a guest instructor to visiting groups, Palen helped Cover with the brainstorming behind Epic Golf.

“It’s hard maybe to just do golf,” says Palen, alluding to economic struggles that have taken a toll on the local golf industry. “But if you can put two or three different attractions together, that’s going to attract more people, because they really get more bang for their buck and get a lot of fun things out of the trip.”

In August 2010, Cover attracted “seven or eight” golfers from the Portland and Seattle areas to start his business with the first Birdies and Breweries adventure package.

That trip included lodging for five nights (fittingly, at brewery/ hotel McMenamins Old St. Francis School in downtown Bend) and four rounds of golf at four different high-end golf courses, such as Tetherow Golf Club, all for $1,395 per person.

The golf was supplemented with a tour of Central Oregon’s breweries and included a stop at the 2010 Bend Brew Festival, held at the Les Schwab Amphitheater.

“We had some fun,” Cover recalls.

Alana Audette, president of the Central Oregon Visitors Association, says that such pairings with golf are a “natural fit” for the area.

“I think it is a phenomenal concept,” Audette says. “From our position as a visitors association, anytime the private sector steps into a role of being more creative in helping to expand our product for the visitor, that’s a real positive for the industry across the board. We are delighted to see that kind of action taking place.”

Cover grew up in Iowa, and he graduated from New Mexico State University with

A look back at Pronghorn Club in 2010

By Zack Hall The Bulletin

The Bulletin continues a weekly Tee To Green feature in which we check in via e-mail with golf professionals at Central Oregon courses for an offseason update. This week we contacted Spencer Schaub, general manager of Pronghorn Club near Bend.

Q: A:

How was business in 2010?

Generally business in 2010 was better than 2009. Pronghorn saw an increase in weddings, banquet business, resort business and daily fee golf business at the club, although we continue to see spending habits closely monitored by guests and members. Pronghorn saw a number of resales of real estate in 2010, which led to new members for the club.

Q: A:

Were any changes of note made to the facility this past year?

Pronghorn continued to developed its resort amenities available not only to members but the local community.

We realized an increase in resort business and resort stays.

More of the local community frequented the restaurants, banquet facilities and Nicklaus golf course than in years past.

a degree in professional golf management.

In New Mexico, he found a love for the outdoors. He moved to Bend in 1996 to become a golf pro at Widgi Creek, where he stayed until 2003.

The long hours during the summer necessary to be a golf pro eventually wore on Cover, and he left the golf business to work in other fields.

“I was a little burned out on (golf),” he explains. “I had been involved in it my whole life.”

But he returned to golf last year, taking a full-time job as an instructional pro with retailer Pro Golf of Bend, where he still works.

He thought of starting his own outdoor guide business.

But working with Palen, Cover quickly decided to put all his passions together.

“Bend is such a mecca for everything in outdoor activities, and obviously being such a mega-golf area, it’s awesome,” says Cover.

Cover does not want to stop with trips TO Central Oregon.

He is also organizing trips from here to distant and exotic destinations, such as a trip next month to Mexico’s Cabo San Lucas.

Closer to home, Cover also hopes to create a Bend-to-Bandon trip, starting at Central Oregon golf courses and ending with rounds at famed Bandon Dunes Golf Resort on the southern Oregon Coast.

“Two amazing golf destinations in one week,” Cover says.

Cover is hoping to one day make Epic Golf Adventures a full-time job.

He’s still a long way from that.

In the meantime, he is hoping to build a clientele by selling travelers on a place he loves: Central Oregon.

“It’s just about taking advantage of what Bend has to offer,” Cover says. “This place is amazing.”

Are any changes and/or improvements to the facility scheduled for 2011?

In the later part of 2010 Pronghorn started the final phase and construction works of the Tesana Real Estate Community, which will see completion in the early parts of 2011. The increased interest in the Tesana Community and our newly launched invitational membership program is expected to attract new members to Pronghorn in 2011.

Q: A:

What is your outlook for the Central Oregon golf industry in the season ahead?

I do expect to see an increase in group and corporate golf in 2011 as well as corporate retreats offering golf as an amenity or leisure activity to the retreat. Golf continues to be a popular form of corporate entertainment, and while spending is still down from the peaks of the mid 2000s, I expect Central Oregon golf courses to see group and corporate golf business coming from the feeder markets of the Pacific Northwest.

I do expect rounds of golf played to increase in 2011 from 2010 and I expect rates to remain competitive to the golfing market.

Kapalua looking to get a return trip to paradise for LPGA Tour

By Doug Ferguson The Associated Press

HONOLULU — The PGA Tour starts its season in Hawaii with a winners-only field. The Champions Tour gets under way this week on the Big Island with a winners-only field, along with a few invitations.

The next move is to get the LPGA Tour back in paradise.

Warren Haruki, who oversees the Kapalua Resort, said it would like to see the LPGA return with a “Tournament of Champions” format. He figures it would be a good fit with Hawaii’s sports theme of bringing only the best to the islands, from the Triple Crown of Surfing on Oahu to the Ironman Championship on the Big Island.

The LPGA has a lawsuit against Kapalua that has not been resolved. It stems from a five-year contract the resort signed to stage a tournament, only to stop after one year when it couldn’t find a title sponsor.

“We’ve been fishing around for a replacement LPGA event,” said Mark Rolfing, now in charge of the PGA Tour’s season-opener in Kapalua and a central golf figure in Hawaii. “If we have an LPGA event, it’s needs to be a Tournament of Champions. We have to find a way to create it. And it’s not like the LPGA (schedule) is totally full.”

The LPGA Tour starts its season in the Far East, and much later in the year than the other U.S. tours. It begins this year Feb. 17 in Thailand, then goes to Singapore. Rolfing can envision a scenario in which a Tournament of Champions is played the week after, on the way back to the mainland.

Even so, the sticking point would seem to be a title sponsor. That’s what led to the pre-

Graeme McDowell, left, walks with his caddie down the 18th fairway during the final round of the Tournament of Champions golf tournament in Kapalua, Hawaii, on Jan. 9. The resort is looking to add an LPGA Tour Tournament of Champions event in the future. mature end of the LPGA event in Kapalua. Rolfing, however, is talking about branding the event so that it becomes more about Hawaii than one resort, or even one island.

“We need an event that moves around Hawaii,” he said. “Having somebody fund an event at one site is difficult. My thought is this could become Hawaii’s event.”

He suggested rotating an LPGA tournament around the islands — Kapalua one year, then perhaps Poipu Bay on Kauai, and Turtle Bay on Oahu, where the LPGA Tour used to play before leaving SBS as a broadcast partner. Organizers have a long way to go, but Rolfing was optimistic about pulling it off.

Jesper’s back A year ago, Jesper Parnevik wondered if a fractured vertebrae would keep him from playing golf again. A Swedish

newspaper suggested he would be forced to retire.

Parnevik is pleasantly surprised with his progress.

He competed for the first time in nine months at Disney in the final tournament last year, and opened this year in contention through two rounds until he closed with 73-73 in the 36-hole final to tie for 54th.

“My back felt as good as I can hope for,” Parnevik said. “According to the doctor, I’ve got about 50 percent functionality, and it’s improving. I’ve very pleased with that.”

Parnevik is happy to be playing golf, although he enjoyed being with his wife and four children.

“Being home that long was good and bad,” he said. “It was good to spend time with the family. The bad news is the bills are coming in, and I haven’t made a dime for two years.”

More graying men choose to touch up

By Andrew Adam Newman New York Times News Service

Like bartenders, hairstylists get an earful from regulars about their woes, and during the economic downturn Jeff Swaner, who owns Epic Salon in Los Angeles, has been hearing from middle-age men who lost their jobs.

“A lot of these guys had solid careers that they never thought they would leave, and now they’re jumping into new careers and competing for these jobs against younger people,” Swaner said.

Many of these job seekers are, for the first time, having their gray hair colored.

“They don’t want to have age as a barrier, and this is one of the ways that they can look a little younger and feel more comfortable about going in and interviewing for a job,” Swaner said.

Battling the earbud blues Solutions for those who find that one-size-fits-all earbuds don’t fit

By David Pogue New York Times News Service

o you have trouble making iPod earbuds stay in your ears? Does the least bit of exercise make them fall out?

Do you suffer from crippling anxiety because you’re the only one in the room who can’t manage the simple act of wearing earbuds?

You are not alone. You, like thousands of other Americans, suffer from Earbud Cartilage Deficiency Syndrome. A Google search for “can’t wear earbuds” returns only 93,800 results, but when I asked my Twitter followers who else had this problem, tons of them chimed in. (Yes, that’s the kind of rigorous scientific research I do.)

If you are small of ear, you may find that those one-size-fits-all earbuds simply don’t fit. They’re too big — or you’re too small — for satisfactory wedging.

Yet the cartilaginously well-endowed may be ECDS sufferers, as well. Too big a socket, and those hard plastic discs, ungripped, simply fall out.

Or, like me, you might have been born without an antitragus. That’s the little loweredge wall of cartilage that would hold ear-

buds in place. (I never knew of my hideous deformity until the invention of the iPod.) Fortunately, there is hope. Treatment comes in all shapes, sizes, designs and materials. Indeed, these alternative earbuds may even appeal to the normal-eared, because let’s face it: Standard earbuds can be uncomfortable. They are three things that your ears are not: hard, perfectly round and uni-size.

Cures for ECDS sufferers Here are the four categories of ECDS solutions. (I didn’t consider full-cup headphones, on the premise that they would diminish your reputation in public even further.)

EARBUD GRIPPERS The first approach is to fasten something onto your existing earbuds to make them grippier or more comfortable. Like EarBudis ($10), for example. (It’s pronounced “ear buddies.” Ear booties would be something else altogether.) They’re rubber over-ear hooks that snap onto standard Apple earbuds.

They do hold up the earbuds but do nothing for their hard, round bigness. If they weren’t comfortable before, they won’t be now.

See Earbuds / E6

Facing your earbud issue BANG & OLUFSEN EARPHONES (EYES): Bang & Olufsen’s earhook earphones ($160) adjust in three ways: The hook opens and closes, the earbud slides higher or lower, and the earbud rotates in or out. But the actual buds are hard, round disks like the iPod’s. They also take a lot of fiddling to put on.

SONY’S MDR AS20J EARPHONES (EARS): The MDR AS20J ($13), black rubber hook doesn’t just go over your ear, it goes all the way around.

YURBUDS (MOUTH): Yurbuds ($20) are curved silicone funnels that snap onto standard earbuds. They make the earbuds softer, increase their grip and enhance the audio and come in different sizes. However, for the antitragus-deprived, even Yurbuds aren’t a sure thing.

Fingerless mittens are tech friendly

By Melissa Magsaysay Los Angeles Times

Having numb and frigid fingers never seems to stop people from texting on their BlackBerrys or tapping the screens of their iPhones. But as the cold weather lingers, you might take a look at an accessory that does double duty by keeping your hands warm while allowing you to text, type, take photos with a digital camera or film with your Flip camera.

Fingerless gloves are nothing new (hello, Madonna, Cyndi Lauper and David Bowie). They were a style staple of ’80s pop stars and have come back on the hands of Taylor Momsen, Rihanna and tons of teens and twentysomethings for whom texting, tweeting and typing is a full-time job no matter what the climate.

And though fingerless gloves have always been easy to find (a pair of scissors will always do the trick if necessary), it seems a growing number of companies are making new styles to suit the rapidly growing tech-savvy culture.

See Fingerless / E6

Bedroom antics are poor topic for conversation Dear Abby: I am a fairly conservative young woman, and also somewhat shy. I have been dating a young man who comes from a much more casual culture than I do. This has its benefits — he laughs often and deeply, and easily connects with people.

But “Mac” has a terrible habit of talking publicly about what we do in the bedroom. He means it in a teasing way, and he’s never insulting. He can’t understand why it upsets me, although he is always remorseful when he realizes I’m angry. He worries that I’m ashamed of him and what we do, but I’m not. I just don’t want it to be a topic of public discussion, especially with people from my church. I find it embarrassing to have my love life made public.

Mac is never mean-spirited, only vulgar, which to him is acceptable.

I love him. He’s a strong, kind and generous man. The truth is, he just doesn’t know how to treat me with respect. What can I do?

— Woman Of Character Dear Woman Of Character: Mac is “always” remorseful? You should not have had to tell him more than once that his talking about your sex life made you uncomfortable. He appears to crave attention any way he can get it.

His lack of sensitivity for your feelings is a red flag.

Mac may be funny, strong, kind and generous, but because he doesn’t understand boundaries, he isn’t likely to change.

What you must do is ask yourself if this is the way you want the rest of your life to be, because if you continue this relationship, this will be your reality — and nothing will be kept private.

Dear Abby: “Clyde” and I dated as teenagers. After we separated, he married someone else. We met up again and had an affair, which resulted in two children. I ended it because it was going nowhere and raised the children alone.

Clyde and I have now come full circle. After separating from his wife, he sought me out. I have

DEAR ABBY loved only him my entire life.

We have been living together for several years now, and I have an engagement ring with no hope of marriage. He keeps telling me his wife is holding up the divorce.

Abby, how long can one person hold up a divorce? I have waited 25 years for this man.

— Tired Of Waiting in New Jersey Dear Tired Of Waiting: Clyde may not have been completely honest with you. I ran your letter by a family law specialist who informed me that here in the U.S.A. no one can be forced to stay married against his or her will. A divorce is a court proceeding. A spouse can stall signing an agreement — the division of property would be an example — but not a court process.

As for your being unwilling to wait for Clyde “forever” — you have already done that. Twentyfive years of waiting for a man who’s unavailable is forever.

Dear Abby: I work for a dentist.

There are two other staff members besides me.

The dentist occasionally receives gifts (goodie baskets, flowers, baked goods, etc.) from specialists thanking him for referring patients to them. These gifts usually have cards that say “To Doctor and Staff,” but he never shares any of it with us; he takes it all home.

Should I approach him about this?

— No Perks in Indiana Dear No Perks: I don’t think so.

While your feelings are understandable, you would have nothing to gain but poundage. And besides, it’s almost impossible to shame the shameless.

‘Nicki’ happy to be a sister wife

By Joy Press

‘Big Love’

Los Angeles Times

Five years ago, few people would have pictured Chloe Sevigny as a prairie skirtclad polygamist.

She came to HBO’s “Big Love” with a pedigree in underground fashion and indie film, having appeared in edgy movies like “Kids,” “Boys Don’t Cry,” “American Psycho” and the infamous “Brown Bunny.” The series offered Sevigny a chance to ditch her hipper-than-thou image with the role of Nicolette (Nicki) Grant, the manipulative daughter of a polygamous prophet trying to find a place for herself alongside two sister wives in the Henrickson family.

Nicki does things that make viewers gasp: She lies, she steals, she spies, and early in this final season, she even brawls with a small boy.

She’s always been stranded between the David Lynch-ian Juniper Creek compound and the Henricksons’ wholesome suburban home.

But in this final season, as her husband Bill’s political ambitions unravel, Nicki cuts off her long braid and comes into her own. She starts speaking out about the horrors perpetrated on young girls in her sect and channels her energy into making sure the same traumas don’t befall the teenage daughter she once abandoned.

“I’m a bigger person now,” Nicki announces to her family, “and I won’t go back to being small.”

Sevigny may not have been an obvious fit for the part, but “Big Love” creators Mark Olsen and Will Scheffer say they actually wrote it for her after seeing “Boys Don’t Cry,” which got her an Oscar nomination.

“Nicki has this disconnect

Chloe Sevigny stars as Nicolette Grant, one of the wives in the Henrickson family in “Big Love.” With the series in its final season, Sevigny is planning for life beyond the popular HBO drama. about who she is; she’s a very insecure girl, but on the surface she’s this manipulative haughty liar,” Scheffer said. “And in a way, Chloe tries to present herself as this ultra-chic fashionista, but when you get to know her, she’s a down-to-earth, good girl.”

Sitting in a Silver Lake cafe in late December, Sevigny exudes the kind of awkward grace that has drawn directors (among them Harmony Korine, Jim Jarmusch, Woody Allen, Whit Stillman and Lars von Trier) like moths to a quirky flame. She often plays passive roles, but that deadpan quality disappears in

person as soon as she lets loose her delightfully goofy laugh.

Sevigny keeps darting glances at a cute guy in the next booth, convinced that she saw him at a movie premiere a few days before. Later she announces disappointedly that it’s not the same guy. Which is just as well, since as soon as “Big Love” wraps, she plans to return to her home in New York.

Sevigny’s origin myth has her being “discovered” as a teenager in Manhattan’s Washington Square Park followed by years of prestigious roles magically dropping in her lap. “I think almost every film I’ve gotten has been an incoming call,” she said.

But it’s not as if she merely stumbled into acting: As a child, she went to theater camp in New Canaan, Conn., and did catalog modeling and commercials until her mom got tired of sitting in cattle-call auditions.

At 36, she worries that she’s trapped in a ghetto of cool and will never make it in mainstream movies. Sevigny originally took on “Big Love” “because I was getting all these small parts and wanted to be able to show off a little bit.” She stopped herself with a snort. “Does that sound completely narcissistic?”

The other motive was financial security. She quotes rock star Dee Snider, who said recently that “being poor and famous is hell,” recalling all kinds of odd jobs he did after his band Twisted Sister peaked.

“Oy,” she quipped, “let’s hope

it doesn’t come to that for little Chloe.”

In the final season of “Big Love,” Olsen says that Nicki matures enormously, “dramatized through her relationship with her daughter and her insistence that her daughter will never be like her. And anyone who’s watched any movie from the 1940s — whether it’s ‘Stella Dallas’ or ‘Mildred Pierce’ — knows that’s a recipe for a lot of problems.”

Sevigny, who got into trouble in the press last year for criticizing the show’s melodramatic fourth season, said, “Yes, this last season is all about her daughter. And I want it to be about me!”

As her days of playing Nicki come to a close, Sevigny seems determined to forge her own luck on multiple fronts. She designed a clothing collection for trendy boutique Opening Ceremony, plans to brainstorm “a great New York film” with pal Tara Subkoff (her collaborator on the fashion line Imitation of Christ) and is developing a TV movie project about a female historical figure.

Will Sevigny miss the highnecked prairie dresses she wore onscreen for five years?

Not much, but she says she will miss her “Big Love” sister wives, Jeanne Tripplehorn and Ginnifer Goodwin.

“It was kind of us against everybody else a lot of the time, and we were so lucky to have that. You hear about other sets where the girls are ... (She meowed loudly to indicate cattiness.)” “But there’s not much competitiveness between any of us. When I come to L.A. in the future and I’m pounding the pavement, I’m going to stay with them.”

FRUGAL DUCHESS:

A prescription for savings on transfers

By Sharon Harvey-Rosenberg McClatchy-Tribune News Service

It was a tempting offer from one of my favorite stores. I could earn a $10 gift card for each new or existing prescription I established at Target. Similar deals are offered periodically from CVS, Walgreens and a growing list of chain stores with pharmacy departments.

The transfer deal represented an opportunity to earn $40 to $60 in gift cards. But the value of the gift cards diminished when I calculated the cost of my time.

Here are a few tricks for getting the most out of pharmacy transfer programs.

Know the rules: Read the guidelines to save time, money and energy. I spent more than 20 minutes on the phone with Target’s toll-free call center. The customer rep politely completed the transfer application over the phone, but the system rejected the paperwork because the patient — my youngest child — was not yet 13. Prescription transfers for young patients have to be handled in a traditional store.

Other restrictions apply. Each retailer has rules for free gift card offers. Read the fine print before you begin the process.

Value your time: Free gift cards can cost valuable time. Long lines and transportation costs can cut the value of freebies. For example, hours accumulated when I tried to transfer the prescriptions to Target. In addition to lengthy phone calls, I also waited in a 10-

minute line, where I was told that my prescription would be ready two hours after completion of the transfer paperwork. I could fax in documents and pick up the prescriptions later, a process that would have taken at least an hour, not including roundtrip transportation time. When I watched the clock, I realized that I could spend up to four hours to earn $40 in gift cards. That’s not an economical use of my time.

Measure the distance: There are two pharmacies within walking distance of my home. That easy access saves time and related transportation costs when I need to refill a prescription. If I lived to closer to Target or other superstores with pharmacy departments, the transfer deal would be more valuable.

Factor in temptation: An extra $40 in gift cards is a great onetime bonus. Refills, however, raise additional financial questions. The money I save on the transferred prescriptions could easily be squandered by impulse purchases. With every refill, big-box temptations could call me away from the pharmacy counter.

Sharon Harvey-Rosenberg is the author of the “Frugal Duchess: How to Live Well and Save Money” — a coming-of-age memoir about money — and a contributing writer in Wise Bread’s “10,001 Ways to Live Large on a Small Budget,” both available on Amazon.com.)

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban have added a second daughter to their family, born through a surrogate mother.

The couple announced Monday the arrival of Faith Margaret Kidman Urban, born Dec. 28 at a Nashville hospital.

Kidman and Urban released a statement saying they are “truly blessed” and thanked everyone for their support, “our gestational carrier” in particular.

The couple also have a 2-yearold daughter, Sunday Rose. Kidman credited her first daughter’s unexpected appearance to swimming in the waters of a small Australian Outback town during the filming of “Australia.”

She and six other women became pregnant after swimming in Kununurra.

NEW YORK — Kristen Stewart is living an atypical life for a 20-year-old.

Ever since she took on the role of Bella Swan in the “Twilight” films, she’s crossed over into youth-idol status where emotions run high and she has zero privacy.

The actress says in the February issue of Vogue magazine that she can’t go to a shopping mall and that it bothers her she

can’t be outside often.

Stewart is working on the final two films in the saga and says her wish is for the fans to be happy with the outcome.

Now that “Twilight” has made her a star, Stewart tells the magazine, she’s trying to figure out what to do with the money she’s made from her work. Stewart says it would be “amazing” to help fund halfway houses for people who need their kind of support.

‘Big Brother 9’ champ sentencing delayed BOSTON — Sentencing on federal drug and tax charges has been delayed for the winner of the CBS reality show “Big Brother 9.”

Adam Jasinski had been scheduled to be sentenced Tuesday afternoon. The hearing was reset for Friday because his attorney was ill.

Jasinski, of Delray Beach, Fla., was arrested outside Boston in October 2009 and charged with attempting to sell 2,000 pills of oxycodone, the main active ingredient in OxyContin and other painkillers.

He pleaded guilty in October to possession with attempt to distribute oxycodone and failure to file a tax return for 2008, the year he won the TV show’s $500,000 prize.

Jasinski faces a maximum 14 years on the drug charge and one year on the tax charge.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Wednesday, Jan. 19, 2011: This year you will change course.

Others can be difficult, and you find relating one on one to be better.

You will resist groups and group meetings. Pressure builds between your needs and the needs of the group. If single, Cupid arrives in your neighborhood this summer.

Perhaps his first arrow might not catch you, but by your next birthday, it very well might. If attached, you start acting like newlyweds again after you move through a volatile issue. LEO understands much more than you think.

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 Pressure builds.

Fundamentally, you are attempting to cover too many bases. There appears to be no solution until late day or tomorrow. Recognize that much of the situation emanates from your judgment of how matters should be handled.

Tonight: Paint the town red.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH You move through one message, request or act with speed.

Recognize that you have more than your share on your plate. Information heads in your direction, indicating that a decision was made with all the facts. Tonight: Head home quickly.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHH Juggling many concerns, you wonder where the path to simplicity is. Handle all that you must now, and ponder the issue later. A boss might

be more supportive of your plight than you thought. Be careful, and funnel anger appropriately. Tonight: Catch up on a friend’s news.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH The Full Moon energy in your sign helps motivate you. Curb wildness and risking, which is more likely at this juncture. Understand another’s plight, but identify with the person. Detach if frustrated for now. Tonight: Where the action is.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHH If you do not have the answer or cannot come up with a solution, say so, allowing others to intervene.

You could be in a position that is most uncomfortable otherwise. By late afternoon, you feel much better.

Now you are verbal, stating your opinions. Tonight: Tell it as it is.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Zero in on what you want.

Others certainly will go along with your ideas. A meeting could turn an opponent into a compatriot.

This person might have wanted to reverse his or her position for a while. Tonight: Take some much-needed private time.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH What becomes clear is that you are not capable of handling all the surprises heading your direction and completing a key project. A creative solution comes forward. Do follow through on this idea. You are more effective with a little less heat in your life.

Tonight: Time for a special friend.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Investigate possibilities that you were not aware of previously.

An impulsive or risky decision just

might work. Know, however, that if it should fail, the responsibility will be yours. Honor your need to accomplish certain rituals every day. Tonight: Could be late.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Working with individuals proves most effective at the moment. The problem arises when you hit a rebellious or controlling individual. You might want to toss a project at that point. Endurance pays off. Late afternoon, detach from the immediate. Tonight: Jog while listening to music.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Defer to those who seem to have the power. If you fight city hall, all you do is waste your energy. Your perception is more insightful than many, though the timing might not be right. Play the waiting game. Late afternoon, a partner or loved one wants to talk. Tonight: Dinner for two.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH At first, you might be uncomfortable with what is requested. You might not have a choice, as the unexpected bubbles up. Be sensitive to a friend’s request, but remember your needs. Others could test your limits. Tonight: Where people are.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHH Others find you bold but unpredictable, not really who you are. As a result, you could be asked to run with the ball on a project.

Feel free to say “no,” as you are so unpredictable! An associate sees a situation with not only a different perspective but more depth. Tonight: Go for a workout. © 2010 by King Features Syndicate

Fingerless

Earbuds

Continued from E1 A brand called Twitten is promoting mittens that promise to never let the bite of winter hit your skin, whether you’re surfing the net on your iPad or holding hands with a loved one. (The mittens come with a little hood that folds back to free fingers when they need to work.) Twitten also offers a mitten that accommodates a couple who want to hold hands and stay warm at the same time.

Continued from E1 Comply Whoomps ($20 for two pair) are narrow foam cylinder extensions for your existing earbuds. Again, the idea is to grip your ear canal more strongly without making you buy new earbuds. Unfortunately, although the foam is grippy, it becomes uncomfortable quickly.

Yurbuds ($20) are curved silicone funnels that snap onto standard cheapo earbuds. They make the earbuds softer, increase their grip and enhance the audio. You’re supposed to send a photo of a quarter next to your ear so that you order exactly the right size. They work great. However, for the antitragus-deprived even Yurbuds aren’t fallout-proof.

The Twitten mittens ($36 from thetwitten .com) come with a hood that folds back to free the fingers when needed.

Etre Touchy makes gloves with the tip of the index finger and thumb missing, so swiping the screen of your favorite touch screen gadget doesn’t get cumbersome.

Other new styles include a black-and-white marbled knit pair from Club Monaco ($59) as well as a very sexy (yes, sexy) pair of bright red knit gloves with hook and eye closures on top from Rag & Bone ($144). Imagine how tough and stylish they’d look peeking out from the cuff of a leather motorcycle jacket.

Stripes and bold colors are big trends among the current crop of fingerless gloves, a strong contrast for those of us who tend to stick to black, gray and denim. And if you’re wearing a three-quartersleeve jacket or shirt and still feel a little chilly, gloves are a great layering piece that can add a hint of late ’90s grunge to your ensemble.

Gray Continued from E1 Today, about 40 percent of his male clients are having color treatments, more than twice as many as from just two years ago, he said.

Whether it’s because of career insecurity begat by a bad economy or simple vanity, use of hair color among boomer men is, not surprisingly, booming. While the number of men over 18 who color their hair doubled from 1999 to 2010, from 3 percent to 6 percent, among men ages 50 to 64 the rate has grown even more, from 3 percent to 10 percent, according to Multi-sponsor Surveys, a research firm.

But while maintaining the hair color they had in 1965 may suit Mick Jagger and Paul McCartney, most men today prefer to reduce gray, not eliminate it, spurred by marketers cultivating the attitude that a little gray may make a man look distinguished, but too much makes him look extinguished.

First sold in drug stores in 2008, Touch of Gray ($8) was “designed to specifically meet the needs of boomer men who like the respect that their gray hair gives them, but want to reduce the amount of gray so that others can see their vitality,” according to information from the brand.

It is made by Combe Inc., also the company behind the Just for Men and Grecian Formula lines.

Domestic revenues for Touch of Gray grew 15.5 percent in the 52 weeks that ended Nov. 28, to $11.3 million, according to Symphony/IRI Group, a market research firm (these figures do not include sales from Walmart).

Consumer Reports sent 11 graying men on its staff home with Touch of Gray, and the majority thought it looked “quite natural” and would buy it, according to a 2010 article in the magazine, which also gave high ratings to another product, Clairol Natural Instincts for Men ($8).

A subtle change For those seeking professional help, numerous men’s salon products have popped up that promise to remove some gray while stopping short of turning clients into Mr. Spock. In 2009, Redken for Men introduced an in-salon

BUILT-IN HOOKS Another solution: earbuds with built-in, over-ear hooks. (They may interfere with glasses.)

Philips SHQ3000s ($16) are bright orange waterproof earbuds. You can run in the rain, you can rinse them under the faucet and you can sweat enthusiastically without short-circuiting. They come with a clothes clip (reduces cable strain so they won’t yank out), a carrying case and comfortable rubber-dome earbud tips in several sizes. Too bad the sound is so muffled.

Sony’s MDR J10 ($8) earbuds are even cheaper. Sure, they’re chintzy plastic. But they hook nicely over your ear, positioning the integrated speaker bud without any cartilage assistance. The sound is surprisingly crisp and rich; you’d never guess they cost $8. (You’d guess $11 at least.)

Sony’s MDR AS20J ($13), whose black rubber hook doesn’t just go over your ear — it’s kidney-shaped, so it goes all the way around. This design is ideal for the antitragus-challenged; heck, these would stay on even if you were also missing your tragus, scapha, concha and earlobe.

They sound easily as good as the regular iPod earbuds.

Bang & Olufsen’s earhook earphones ($160) aren’t nearly as successful. They’re stylish, of course, and they adjust in three ways: The hook opens and closes, the earbud slides higher or lower, and the earbud rotates in or out. But the actual buds are hard, round disks like iPod’s, so they’re not comfortable. They

PHILIPS’ SHQ3O00S HEADPHONES

product, Color Camo, that blends away some gray, followed last year by similarly formulated men’s products by Paul Mitchell, Goldwell and American Crew.

The treatments usually cost between $25 and $50, well below the car-payment range many women pay for color treatments.

“I’m older, so people expect to see some gray, but you don’t want to give the impression that you’re so old that you’re over the hill,” said Gregory Wood, 65, a lawyer in Los Angeles who has been getting the Paul Mitchell treatment, Flashback, from Swaner every six weeks for about a year, leaving some streaks of gray in his hair.

Over the past year, Richard Limato, 59, of the Bronx, a school district administrator, has received Goldwell treatments, called ReShade, from his Manhattan stylist, Bradley Moreland.

“It enhanced my natural look and made the gray look secondary,” said Limato, whose brown hair retains flecks of gray after the treatment, particularly at his temples.

These new products tend to be demi-permanent, meaning that dyes cover gray only moderately and gradually fade away as hair grows, so they do not leave telltale demarcation lines near the scalp. (Darker roots can be particularly conspicuous with men’s shorter hairstyles.) The products also claim to minimize the yellowish or brassy tones that can crop up in dye jobs, since they

These rubber over-ear hooks snap onto standard Apple earbuds.

These buds are waterproof —and sweat-proof — and come with a clothes clip.

also take a lot of fiddling to put on.

HEADBAND STYLE Sony’s streak of successful cheap plastic continues with the MDR AS35W ($20). It’s a foldable headband that bends the earbuds right into your ears. Incredibly lightweight (and cheap-feeling), they’re incredibly comfortable, and they would stay on even if you had no ears at all.

IN-EAR OPTIONS Audio aficionados reject the standard music-player earbuds not because they fall out but because they’re cheap and don’t sound very good. They’d much rather buy in-ear earphones, whose rubber or foam tips wedge all the way inside your ear canal.

contain little or no ammonia or peroxide.

The salon treatments are as short as five minutes and spare men the indignity of foils.

At Supercuts color services purchased by men (about 70 percent of the company’s customer base) have experienced double-digit growth in each of the past three years, with about three-quarters of men who color choosing to tone down but not eliminate gray, according to Melanie Ash, senior artistic director.

Going with the gray But Wendell Brown, senior fashion editor at Esquire, cautions men against any dyeing whatsoever.

“I’m not a big fan of men coloring their hair,” he said. “We’re at a time when gray hair is considered stylish and manly.”

Brown pointed to George Clooney, Anderson Cooper and David Gregory, the host of “Meet the Press,” as examples of “so many guys who are wearing gray well and who have a youthful attitude about it.”

Still, Kyle White, a colorist at the Oscar Blandi Salon, said about90 percent of the men clientle retain at least some gray in their hair, which he recommends. As for the remainder, “those are guys who are maybe a little phobic about aging,” White said. “They would prefer to look artificial than to look old.”

That design does more than prevent fallouts. It also blocks external sound, giving you a bit of noise reduction on, for example, plane rides (and making them more dangerous for biking and jogging). And by sealing your ear, these deliver far better sound.

Each type comes with different tips: silicone domes, tripleflange stoppers, foam cylinders and so on. The hope is that you can find a tip type that feels comfortable for long hours and still seals your ear.

In-ear phones can cost more than the music player itself — but that’s no deterrent to music fans.

It’s like a photographer buying a lens that costs more than the camera.

The price range is enormous.

Skullcandy has a whole range of inexpensive in-ears, like the 50/50 ($45). They come with a cool, colorful and fabric-covered cord, playback/volume controls right on the cable, three sizes of tips and even a microphone for use with the iPhone or iPod Touch. Unfortunately, the sound is nothing like what you’d get with the more expensive in-ear types.

In creating its Metal Remix Remote ($70), V-Moda pulled out all the stops to keep them on your head. You get four sizes of tips, a shirt clip and even optional overear hooks. (The hooks have “Active Flex technology” which, as far as I can tell, means they’re a little bendy.) The only thing that would do a better job of keeping these earbuds in place would be

SuperGlue.

Handily enough, you get playback and volume controls on the cord, too.

The Etymotic HF3 ($180) also has cord controls — and a microphone. These come with a bunch of tips, and you can also pay $100 more to get custom-fitted tips that are molded (by a local audiologist) to your exact ear shape.

My favorites were the Klipsch x10i. Yeah, they’re $350, but they sound absolutely amazing; at half volume, you get the same sound you would at full from lesser buds. You get five sets of tips, cord controls and a shirt clip. The tips are oval instead of round, and therefore extremely comfortable.

Online, people rave about the amazing sound of the Shure SE 535 in-ear buds ($450 — ouch).

They include playback controls on the cord and a whole farmer’s market of tips: triplecone, yellow foam cylinders, and five sizes of black silicone. The first inches of the cord are bendable, so that you can hook them over the tops of your ears. Oh, and they come in a gorgeous aluminum box.

These phones feature “Triple High-Definition MicroDrivers.”

Whatever that means, this extra gear occupies a little lima-bean of a body that’s supposed to nestle in (sigh) your antitragus.

Basically, I could not make these things stay in, and it’s fussy to have to thread the cords over your ears.

If you, too, suffer from ECDS, solutions are at hand. If the problem is ear deformity, Sony’s overear, around-ear or headbandstyle earphones are dirt cheap and sound surprisingly good. If the problem is the discomfort or size of hard, round earbuds, consider the Yurbuds or in-ear types like the Skullcandy, V-Moda or Klipsch models. You’ll face the unafflicted population with head held high, proud to have overcome your disability and entered the mainstream at last.

Will hire two sales people to work from the Bend Bulletin newspaper office for the Newspaper in Education sales campaign. This is soft, relaxed business to business sales. We offer a short paid training program. The average salesperson earns $400 to $700 per week, for a 27 hour work week. The dress code is very relaxed and casual.

We prefer a background in "business to business" selling. This is not ad or subscription sales, however if you have previous experience in advertising sales, I will give you priority consideration.

I'm looking for motivated, energetic, articulate people, with excellent communication skills. Call Melanie at 541-383-0399.
