WASHINGTON — The newly-minted Republican House of Representatives struck a symbolic blow against President Barack Obama’s agenda on Wednesday, when members voted to repeal his signature achievement — health care reform — 245-189.

Oregon members broke along party lines, with Democrats voting to maintain the sweeping health care overhaul law, while Rep. Greg Walden, R-Hood River, voted to do away with the measure.

Walden, like many Republicans, argued that the measure places too heavy a burden on businesses and would ultimately increase the federal deficit. Democrats sought to defend the most popular parts of the bill.

In a speech on the U.S. House floor, Walden questioned the need for the federal Rep. Greg government to mandate insur- Walden ance coverage.

“It’s your life, it’s your health,” Walden said. ‘’You should have the right to choose your doctor and your hospital and make those decisions.”

PRINEVILLE — Crook County is borrowing from its county road fund to pay back debt on improvements to the Prineville Airport, but Crook County Court Judge Mike McCabe said there is a plan to reimburse it.

Crook County borrowed $1.3 million from banks for infrastructure improvements in 2008 to create room for about 50 new hangars at the airport, which is primarily used by privately owned and corporate airplanes.

McCabe said the original plan was to lease the locations at the airport for individuals to build private hangars and pay back the debt, but then “the economy fell through and we didn’t see the demand for the hangars as expected.”

“I think given a 10-year time frame we will rent the spaces,” McCabe said, “But with the way things are we had to look at other options.”

What causes a pothole

Repairing potholes

1 Water from melting snow or ice seeps into the pavement and softens it.

During repeated cold spells, the water in the pavement freezes and expands, breaking up the pavement, on and below the surface.

Ideally, crews remove debris, square the hole’s edges, ensure the sub-base is adequate and lay a new patch of pavement, according to Hardy Hanson, Street Division Manager for the City of Bend. But this takes time, and in the interest of tackling as many holes as possible, crews often just remove debris, fill the hole with a cold-weather pavement mix and compress it with a roller or tamper.

2 As the ice melts, it leaves gaps inside the pavement and moisture continues to soften it. As passing vehicles drive over the pavement, it begins to break up.

3 As more vehicles drive over the area, the roadway continues to erode and material is kicked out to form the pothole.

MTV’s racy ‘Skins’ pushes borders on child pornography

By Brian Stelter New York Times News Service

MTV executives have a new hit drama on their hands, featuring the sexual and drugfueled exploits of misfit teenagers. They also have something else — a fear that coming episodes of the show may break the law.

In recent days, executives at the cable channel became concerned that some scenes from the provocative new show “Skins” may violate federal child pornography statutes.

The executives ordered the producers to make changes to tone down some of the most explicit content.

The executives are particularly concerned about the third episode of the series, which is to be broadcast Jan. 31. In an early version, a naked 17-year-old actor is shown from behind as he runs down a street.

‘You can patch them together, but you’re just Band-Aiding the roads’

To trace criminals’ steps, FBI turns to cell records

By Bulletin staff

By Peter J. Sampson

In Bend, the pothole problem is pervasive.

If you’ve taken a drive recently down Century Drive on the west side between Galveston and Simpson avenues, you’ll understand why it might be a good idea wear a mouth guard to protect against the constant jarring.

“They’re everywhere, unfortunately,” Bend Street Division Manager Hardy Hanson said of the potholes. “It’s an indicator of the crumbling infrastructure.”

Bend has deferred anywhere from $12 million to $14 million in street maintenance over the past several years, causing more and more potholes to show up every winter.

The Record (Hackensack, N.J.)

City of Bend employee Joe Newton, center, fills a pothole with asphalt released by Jeanette Prince, left, on Simpson and Colorado avenues in Bend on Tuesday. The city gives heavily trafficked roads top priority when it comes to filling potholes, but the cold weather can be an obstacle to long-lasting repairs.

To report potholes in Bend, call 541-317-3002 and press 5. In Redmond, call 541-504-2000.

HACKENSACK, N.J. — When FBI agents wanted to reconstruct the movements of a rogue New York City cop who staged a $1 million perfume heist in Carlstadt, N.J., last February, they turned to cell phone records to trace his steps.

Using a computer mapping program and “call detail” logs obtained from Sprint Nextel, agents plotted the locations of 42 cell sites in Bergen and Hudson counties and New York to track Kelvin Jones’ movements as the armed robbery plot unfolded. Jones was convicted last month.

Cellular tracking of criminals — including those like Jones who use prepaid mobile phones that can’t easily be traced because there is no subscriber contract — has become a cottage industry for the FBI. See Cell phones / A6

60 students, 4 teachers: a loud new way to learn

By Sharon Otterman New York Times News Service

NEW YORK — Sixty children in a first-grade class can get loud — sometimes too loud for a teacher to explain a lesson.

So while waiting for her teacher to come by, one little girl arranged the pennies she had been given to practice subtraction into a smiley face. Another shook her pennies in a plastic bag. A high-pitched argument broke out over someone’s missing quarter.

“We don’t know what we are supposed to be doing, but we are learning about math,” Thea Burnett, 6, said.

Across the room, a second teacher, Jennifer McSorley, successfully led the class’ weakest students in a counting rhyme. But when she leaned forward out of her chair to write a word on an easel, a 6-year-old boy moved it, and she fell when she tried to sit back down.

“Jahmeer, sit down,” McSorley demanded, unharmed but flustered. “I could have hurt myself very badly.” Then another boy ran off to hide under an easel. Someone grabbed someone else’s pennies. The noise snowballed. his was the early stages of an audacious public education experiment taking place in the Crown Heights section of Brooklyn, one that its founder hopes will revolutionize how students learn and how teachers are trained. Instead of assigning one teacher to roughly 25 children, the New American Academy began the school year with four teachers in large, open classrooms of 60 students.

New methods in place The school stresses studentled lessons over teacher-led ones, scientific inquiry over rote memorization and freedom and self-expression over strict structure and discipline. The founder, Shimon Waronker, developed the idea with several other graduate students at Harvard. It draws its inspiration, he said, from Phillips Exeter Academy, an elite boarding high school in New Hampshire where students in small classes work collaboratively and hold discussions around tables.

But Waronker decided to try out the model in one of the nation’s toughest learning environments, an elementary school in a high-poverty area where 20 percent of the children have been found to have emotional, physical or learning disabilities. The idea, he said, was to prove that his method could help any child, and should be widely used elsewhere. “I didn’t want to create an environment that wasn’t real for everyone else and then say, look at my success,” he said.

The challenges have been considerable. Faced with outof-control classroom situations, Waronker, 42, had to rethink his idea that his model could work for even the most disturbed children.

By January, three children who were violent had been moved to more-structured environments; seven other first-graders moved away or withdrew, reducing the class size to 50.

The school was founded with

“This is messy work — this is the front lines.”

— Shimon Waronker, founder of New American Academy the backing of Joel Klein, the former schools chancellor, who frequently lauded Waronker for his efforts as the principal of a tough middle school in the South Bronx.

They found a space in an elementary school three blocks from Waronker’s home in the Crown Heights, and in a special deal with the teachers’ union, he won the right to pay teachers on a scale that considered performance.

While the model flies against efforts to keep class sizes low, Waronker notes that the teacher-student ratio is lower than in most schools. At its heart is the idea that the teachers, not to mention the students, will collaborate and learn from one another, rather than being isolated in separate classrooms. He hired one $120,000-per-year master teacher per class. Most of the others are novice early childhood teachers, which re-creates the staff composition in typical high-poverty schools.

New American Academy opened with 126 kindergartners and first-graders and at least eight adults per classroom, including intern principals and paraprofessionals assigned to disabled children. It will expand by one grade per year until it reaches the fifth grade, and the teachers will stay with the same children every year, to build accountability for their learning. There is no assistant principal, dean or art teacher, saving money for classroom salaries.

Staying focused Lessons are a series of complex choreographies. In the 2,000square-foot kindergarten, each child is assigned a grouping by skill level, and another group by color: blue, red or green. Every 40 minutes or so, the children regroup in a different part of the room.

During a visit in November, an observer noticed that each move led to the children’s standing up, running, talking, and then having to quiet down again.

“This is the hardest moment of the day,” said Lorraine Scorsone, the master teacher in the kindergarten, as eight adults tried to wrangle the children into a semicircle for group reading time. “In early childhood, disengaging is very difficult, and moving to another activity is very difficult.”

Scorsone, with 23 years of experience, had what appeared to be a magical touch, and the children listened raptly one day in November as she explained how a banana travels from foreign lands to local stores. But the other teachers, who do the bulk of the teaching, had more trouble gaining the attention of the children, who lay on carpets looking at the ceiling or fiddled with belts and shoelaces on the outskirts of lessons.

The first grade was tougher, with less-experienced teachers

and more children who were violent. In the first two months of school, a student pulled a chunk of an adult’s hair out, and an ambulance crew was called twice to calm a child. Eight weeks into the year, the only student work visible on the blue-painted walls was a poster with finger-painted hand prints and the words “Hands Are Not for Hitting.”

“Many of the children have already had a year in what I would call a state of nature, when Rousseau spoke about people who live under no civilization,” Waronker said, referring to the children’s experience in a regular public school kindergarten. Fifteen children still could not recognize letters, and only one-third were at grade level. “This is messy work — this is the front lines.”

In the front of the room, Kathleen Kearns, a first-year teacher, strained to get her 20 students to understand how to use a chart to classify similarities and differences between two characters in a book. About half a dozen students refused to sit in their places.

“I need you here; your job is here,” she said to one, trying to be heard. After class, she said, “I am exhausted at the end of the day.”

Still trial-and-error It is the same struggle that many first-year teachers face, but the difference, Waronker said, is that in his school, it is out in the open. Other teachers can offer advice and pitch in, and they have 90 minutes of joint planning time each morning. The collaboration, he believes, is what will cause his model, while admittedly still in a “trial-and-error” phase, to ultimately surpass others.

Indeed, by this month, there were significant improvements.

Children appeared more focused during lessons. Jahmeer decided to play with pencils rather than do his counting work sheet, but he stayed in his seat, and another child asked if he needed help.

One boy started crying, but not because someone pushed him; he wanted to have a turn writing his answer on the board.

“It’s tough on them, it’s tough on all of us,” Keema Flourney, the first-grade master teacher, said of her teachers, “but they are pulling through.”

Most of the teachers said they felt the school’s model would show good results over time. Several parents praised the school’s inclusiveness. But one father, who withdrew his daughter, said the school was not for her because of her behavior problems.

The first-year teacher who had been leading the penny lesson in November, Daniella Schonbuch, said she calmed herself after tough days by remembering that she would have years to build progress with her students. By January, she was leading a regular morning French lesson.

“It’s small moments, it really is,” said McSorley, the first-grade teacher whose chair had been pulled out from under her. “We are still in the process of figuring out what works for the kids, and what works today does not always work tomorrow.”

Rayne Nelson, a 21-year-old sophomore at Landmark College in Putney, Vt., does not let her attention deficit hyperactivity disorder throw her off track.

Nelson is paying most of her own way at Landmark, a two-year college exclusively for students with learning disabilities and ADHD She wants to graduate on time this spring, and with tuition and fees alone at $48,000 a year — more than at any other college in the nation — she cannot give in to distraction.

“I have a lot riding on this,” says Nelson, who is also dyslexic. She wants to transfer to a four-year institution and get a bachelor’s degree — a goal that would have been out of reach, she says, had she not found Landmark three years after graduating from high school. If Nelson gets her associate degree in May after four semesters, she will buck the trend at Landmark.

Only about 30 percent graduate within three years; many others drop out after a semester or two. The numbers suggest that even with all the special help and the ratio of one teacher for every five students, the transition is not easy.

About half of the 500 students at Landmark are recent high school graduates or, like Nelson, arrive after a period of drifting. Most of the others have tried and failed at college already, coming with the goal of getting the academic or organizational skills they need to succeed at a four-year college or to enter the work force.

Federal law requires all colleges to provide accommodations for the learning disabled — tutoring, for example, or extra time on exams — and with the increase in students with diagnosed learning disabilities, many mainstream colleges and universities are trying to serve them better. But they still fall short, experts say, for those who need help not just with study skills like how to write papers, but also with basic daily functions like getting to class on time.

For such students, options are growing. Mitchell College, a small residential campus in New London, Conn., now offers a transition year in which students earn transferable credits while preparing for college life. Beacon College in Leesburg, Fla., like Landmark a degree-granting institution for the learning disabled, plans to add a summer program for college-bound students by 2012 and take 100 more students by 2014.

Landmark planning to expand to Oregon Among for-profit ventures, the College Internship Program helps 18- to 26-yearolds learn social, academic and life skills, including how to study, manage money and even cook. It is expanding its summer transition program for new high school graduates to each of its locations in five states. Landmark, too, is expanding its summer program, to Oregon, North Carolina and California.

All of these programs are expensive and, given the economic downturn, out of reach for many. This fall, for the first time, Landmark did not meet its enrollment target, with 26 fewer students than planned.

“Applications and acceptances were up,” says Dale Herold, the college’s vice president for enrollment management, “but when it came down to paying, the follow-through wasn’t there. The economy this year was like, whoa.”

The drop is a serious matter for a small, tuition-dependent college. Landmark has an endowment of only about $11 million. One reason is that the college is relatively young — it is celebrating its 25th anniversary this school year. Anoth-

Rayne Nelson, a Landmark College student from Tustin, Calif., laughs with a friend on campus in Putney, Vt., earlier this month. Nelson hopes to graduate from Landmark in May and attend a four-year college. er, officials say, is that alumni are reluctant to donate because of the stigma attached to attending a school for the learning disabled.

Some students struggling in mainstream colleges decide to spend just a “bridge semester” at Landmark to get help specifically with time management and productivity.

MacLean Gander, who teaches writing to these students, says many in his class are talented writers but routinely fail to show up for class or hand in papers.

They are students like Michaela Brunell, 20, who fell behind at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. “I loved it my first year,” she says, “but as my classes got more work-oriented, I didn’t have good strategies set up.”

‘Really bright students’ On its face, Landmark College does not look like one of the nation’s most expensive schools.

The academic buildings are squat and plain, and some dorm rooms have a ’70s-era feel. Likewise, in many classrooms there are only subtle hints of the learning disabilities that make college so challenging for the students there. Some might speak so quickly that they are hard to follow; others might trail off in the middle of answering a question.

“We’re dealing with really bright students here,” says Michael Nieckoski, Landmark’s director of educational technology services. “In some ways they may be even smarter than your average undergraduate, because they’ve spent most of their lives trying to either overcome their diagnosis or outsmart everyone.”

By the time they get to Landmark, though, some are so far behind that the chances of catching up are slim. Linda Katz, the college president, says about 20 of the 220 new students this fall could not read above a sixthgrade level.

“It’s really about being intentional and systematic in ways that are common sense,” Gander says, “but not taught as explicitly, generally, as they ought to be.”

Every student who needs it gets assistive technology. Those who have trouble reading, for example, can listen to a computer reading their textbooks instead.

Those who struggle with writing and spelling can dictate a research paper to a computer that will transcribe it.

Meghan Benzel, a third-semester student with ADHD and nonverbal learning disorder, says being able to listen to her reading assignments had made all the difference for her. “It’s saved my reading comprehension,” she says. “I can actually get work done instead of staring at a textbook for hours.”

Benzel, 20, came to Landmark reluctantly after graduating from high school in Kennett Square, Pa. There, Benzel says, she was an unhappy loner whose top goal was keeping her learning disabilities secret. “I’d make up so many excuses just to get by,” she says, “but I still felt like the odd man out. It was great to get here and realize that everyone needed almost the same help I needed.”

T S Abortion doctor Obama presses on human rights charged with murder CHINA’S PRESIDENT VISITS WASHINGTON

By Helene Cooper and Mark Landler

Toasts exchanged at state dinner

New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama on Wednesday gently but pointedly prodded China to make progress on human rights, but he sought to focus most of the attention during a closely watched state visit with President Hu Jintao on the expanding economic relationship between the United States and its biggest economic rival.

Obama said differences on human rights were an “occasional source of tension between our two governments.” As the two leaders stood side by side at a nationally televised news conference, he called on China to live up to human rights values that he said were enshrined in the Chinese Constitution, adding that Americans “have some core views as Americans about the universality of certain rights: freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom of assembly.”

Hu, for his part, seemed to hearten White House officials by acknowledging that China had a ways to go on human rights issues.

“China still faces many challenges in economic and social development,” Hu said. “And a lot still needs to be done in China in terms of human rights.”

But he noted that China was willing to talk to the United

Charles Dharapak / The Associated Press

President Barack Obama welcomes China’s President Hu Jintao during a state arrival at the White House on Wednesday.

States only within the confines of the “principle of noninterference in each other’s internal affairs.”

Administration officials said the human rights discussion continued in private as well, illustrating how a visit marked by public displays of pomp and harmony belied a more fractious relationship over matters that included North Korea and the Chinese currency. They said Obama pressed Hu specifically on China’s imprisonment of its Nobel laureate, Liu Xiaobo, during a private dinner at the White House on Tuesday night and a larger session between

the leaders and their delegations Wednesday.

Hu’s visit is giving Obama a rich opportunity to strengthen ties between the White House and the U.S. business community after a year in which relations had soured. With the arrival last week of Obama’s new chief of staff, William Daley, the former Clinton administration commerce secretary, the White House has sought to turn Hu’s visit into a kind of trade show for U.S. companies.

In a significant concession, China agreed to scrap a policy that favored Chinese technology

WASHINGTON — About 225 people on Wednesday swept into the White House for a “quintessentially American” state dinner honoring Chinese President Hu Jintao.

As tradition dictates, President Barack Obama and Hu exchanged toasts.

Obama saluted the people of both countries.

“May they grow together in friendship. May they prosper together in peace. And may they realize their dream of the future for themselves, for their children and for their grandchildren,” he said.

Hu raised his glass to a “stronger friendship between the people of China and the United States” and the “steady growth of ChinaU.S. relations.”

— Katherine Skiba, McClatchy-Tribune News Service companies for big government contracts, a senior administration official said. U.S. companies complained that the policy, known as “indigenous innovation,” cut them out of one of China’s most lucrative markets.

crackdown on internal dissent and imprisoned a Nobel laureate. Until Wednesday, recognizing credos like democracy and human rights as “universal values” had been all but taboo in the Chinese political discourse, although China has signed the U.N. convention that enshrines the principle of universal human rights.

Words, of course, are easier than deeds.

“I don’t equate new rhetoric with new reality in China,” said Kenneth Lieberthal, a Brookings Institution scholar who was President Bill Clinton’s national security adviser on China issues. “But at least new rhetoric is better than nothing.”

So, in a sense, were the events of Wednesday. Neither side made any significant progress,

much less any breakthrough, on the larger problems that have bedeviled relations ever since Obama made his state visit to Beijing in November 2009. On the U.S. side, that includes revaluing China’s currency, leveling the playing field for U.S. investors in China and establishing a serious discourse between the two nations’ militaries.

For the Chinese, the biggest thorns include U.S. arms sales to Taiwan, its continued support of the Dalai Lama and what a Chinese journalist at Wednesday’s news conference called “strategic mistrust” — the fear that the United States is seeking to encircle China and suppress its rise.

Still, each side came away from the meeting with something it could point to as an accomplishment, however modest.

Giffords likely to move to rehabilitation hospital Karzai delays seating Afghan Federal grand jury indicts shooting suspect parliament

By Jennifer Medina and Marc Lacey

New York Times News Service

By Alissa J. Rubin and Rod Nordland New York Times News Service

KABUL, Afghanistan — President Hamid Karzai ordered a month’s delay in seating a new parliament on Wednesday, heightening a constitutional crisis that threatens to fuel bitter infighting and potentially even violence among the country’s rival factions.

The move leaves Afghanistan without a parliament five months after its September election, with the prospect of even further delays. It also puts Karzai at odds with his international backers, who insist that the elections were valid after investing heavily in them as a way to promote Afghanistan’s fledgling democracy.

Karzai made his decision at the request of a special court he personally appointed to hear complaints from losing candidates, who say fraud and insecurity left large parts of the population excluded from the vote. Many are from the heavily Pashtun south, where the insurgency is most intense and Karzai maintains his main political base.

While the losing candidates say the skewed results could lead to a new dimension of violence in Afghanistan, the winning candidates are unlikely to accept any reworking of the results and threaten violent protests of their own if they are deprived of their seats.

Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, who survived a gunshot through her head on Jan. 8, is likely to leave a Tucson, Ariz., hospital on Friday and move to the TIRR Memorial Hermann rehabilitation hospital in Houston to continue her recovery, a spokesman for Giffords said on Wednesday.

Giffords’ aides said that the timing of the move might change depending on her health. Her doctors have said repeatedly that she was making remarkable progress, considering the severity of her injury, but that it was impossible to predict how she would recover.

U.S. prepares to lift ban on Gitmo cases

By Charlie Savage New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — The Obama administration is preparing to increase the use of military commissions to prosecute Guantanamo detainees, an acknowledgment that the prison in Cuba remains open for business after Congress imposed steep new impediments to closing the facility.

Defense Secretary Robert Gates is expected to soon lift an order blocking the initiation of new cases against detainees, which he imposed on the day of President Barack Obama’s inauguration.

That would clear the way for tribunal officials, for the first time under the Obama administration, to initiate new charges against

detainees.

Charges would then come within weeks against one or more detainees who have already been designated by the Justice Department for prosecution before a military commission, including Abd al-Rahim al-Nashiri, a Saudi accused of planning the 2000 bombing of the U.S. destroyer Cole in Yemen; Ahmed al-Darbi, a Saudi accused of plotting, in an operation that never came to fruition, to attack oil tankers in the Straits of Hormuz; and Obaydullah, an Afghan accused of concealing bombs.

Continued from A1 Hanson said it’s difficult to quantify whether this year is worse than last when it comes to potholes. He noted that by the end of the fiscal year in July, the city expects to have used about 360 tons of filler to help with the problem.

“It’s not a good use of our money,” Hanson said. “You can patch them together, but you’re just Band-Aiding the roads. It’s not fixing the structural problems. It’s just fixing the top.”

Top priorities for filling potholes for the city are heavily trafficked roads, like East

Third Street, Hanson said. Residential neighborhoods are typically lower on the list.

Redmond’s problems with potholes tend to be less significant than Bend’s. The city’s public works crews tend not to spend much time filling potholes each winter, which could come down to better luck with the climate.

“We don’t have a lot of potholes,” Redmond Public Works Director Chris Doty said. “We’re a little bit warmer and a little bit drier, and that seems to make a difference.”

Doty said this winter, so far, has been an average one in terms of potholes. Each year, the city spends about $800,000 on asphalt maintenance, but about $10,000 of that amount goes to fixing pot-

holes, Doty estimated.

If the winter continues as it has, that’s likely about how much Redmond will spend this year.

Unless a pothole is unusually deep, the asphalt mix Redmond uses tends to last until the next scheduled maintenance for that section of road. If the pothole is large, the city will go back and make a long-lasting fix in warmer weather.

The city’s road crews try to respond to potholes on a case-bycase basis, Doty said. “Generally, we’ll spot-treat throughout the winter,” Doty said.

The Oregon Department of Transportation is experiencing a worse-than-normal year for potholes on area highways, said

spokesman Peter Murphy, though it’s been nothing like the winter of 1993 — the worst on record for ODOT. Murphy said the drastic swings in temperature in Central Oregon make it highly susceptible to potholes, with water seeping into tiny cracks in the road, then freezing and expanding the cracks in the asphalt further.

Weather also factors into how ODOT deals with the potholes that emerge in winter. Standard asphalt repairs require a sustained temperature above 40 degrees to cure properly, Murphy said, leaving ODOT to use a “cold patch” blend of asphalt formulated for winter. While the cold patch will cure in colder temperatures, it’s

not very durable, Murphy said.

“Solid cold we can deal with, warm we can deal with, it’s the freeze-thaw that we get up here that’s a real chore for us to deal with and handle,” he said.

In a typical winter, ODOT in Central Oregon will go through two 30-yard dumptrucks of cold patch at a cost of $10,000 or more.

Wintertime fixes are primarily intended to prevent damage to motorists’ vehicles, Murphy said, while the real repairs — generally in the form of replacing multiple inches of the road surface — are tackled during the summer.

where Democratic leaders have promised that the bill won’t receive a vote.

Obama has also said he would oppose any effort to repeal the health care bill.

Walden invoked Bend trucking company Taurus Freight, Inc., whose office manager wrote the congressman’s office to complain of a provision in the health reform bill that will require companies to file 1099 tax forms for every transaction with another business that exceeds $600.

“It’s going to cost jobs and put new headaches on small businesses,” Walden said. “I think that’s one of the big arguments here that I get from people out in my district.”

In an interview, Taurus office manager Jennifer Treber said that provision would more than triple the number of 1099 forms the firm has to file, costing time and money.

Treber said the company buys more than $600 in supplies from retailers like Costco and Office Max, not just clients and contractors.

“It seems like a lot of paperwork for no real reason,” Treber said.

Despite her concerns about that provision, Treber said she supports the rest of the new health care law.

“That’s the thing that’s hard, because we support the health care bill, but this paperwork part

of it, the 1099 part of it, seems like it doesn’t belong in there,” she said.

Treber said the 13-person company recently began offering employees health insurance for the first time. She said it doesn’t appear that Taurus qualifies for insurance subsidies the bill included for some small businesses.

Rep. Peter DeFazio, D-Springfield, defended the health care law in a brief floor speech, and said Republicans should present another solution if they want to repeal Obama’s plan.

DeFazio suggested repealing the insurance industry’s exemption from antitrust laws, which some analysts say increases insurance costs for consumers.

“They could at least replace it by making the industry comply with the same competitive rules that apply to every other industry in America,” DeFazio said.

Rep. Earl Blumenauer, D-Portland, also defended the bill and blasted the Republicans’ criticism of the Congressional Budget Office, a nonpartisan office that estimates the fiscal impact of legislation.

“Without this impartial referee, the long road to fiscal health becomes longer becomes harder and becomes less likely to be traveled,” Blumenauer said.

That plan is for the county to pay the money back over the next 10 years.

The first payment will be made on Feb. 15. The road fund will receive $96,664.23 from the general fund, according to Gordon. Then, between 2012 and 2020, the general fund will receive payments of around $105,451.89 each year. In the final year, the general fund will pay out the remaining amount to close the debt.

Where is the money going to come from?

McCabe said he expects the

demand for the hangars to increase over the next ten years.

“I don’t know if Facebook has a plane, but I expect they, and similar companies that look to locate here, will use the airport,” he said.

To rent a location at the airport, it costs between $22,000 and $32,000 just for the right to construct a hangar bay and connect to utilities in the area. Then rent is based on the square footage of the hangar itself.

But McCabe said the county will not rely solely on renting hangar space to repay the debt.

“We are looking at working with the airport commission and the Federal Aviation Administration to get land owned south of the runway salable,” McCabe said. “We don’t know exactly how much yet, but that could help us to retire the debt.”

McCabe said he doesn’t view the county’s road fund as a source of available cash to solve any and all financial problems.

“We didn’t make this decision lightly,” McCabe said. “There is just over $20 million in the road fund but we treat it like a sacred cow. If there is an earthquake,

for example, we will need every bit of it.”

McCabe said the commissioners checked with the Association of Oregon Counties before making the decision to ensure the loan from the fund was allowed under state law.

“We looked into it a good bit,” he said. “We found this would be the best way to go about it and we will be repaying the road fund.”

Military suicides up sharply in Guard, Reserve

By Nancy A. Youssef McClatchy-Tribune News Service

WASHINGTON — Suicides among active-duty soldiers dropped in 2010 for the first time in five years, but the number of Army reservists and National Guard members who killed themselves nearly doubled, leaving Army officials scrambling to find ways to gain control of a suicide crisis that’s defying the Pentagon’s investment in prevention programs.

“It’s not a deployment problem, because over 50 percent of the people that committed suicide in the Army National Guard in 2010 had never deployed,” Maj. Gen. Raymond Carpenter, the acting director of the Army National Guard, said Wednesday at a news conference where the new figures were announced.

Carpenter also discounted the role that economic conditions played in the increase in suicides among reservists and members of the National Guard. “Only 15 percent of the people who committed suicide in fact were without a job,” he said.

The Pentagon statistics released Wednesday listed 145 members of the Army National Guard and Army Reserves as suicides in 2010, up from 80 in 2009. Active-duty suicides totaled 156 in 2010, down from 162 in 2009, the Pentagon said.

Of U.S. military installations, Fort Hood, Texas, had the highest number of suicides last year, 22, compared with 11 in 2009.

Fort Campbell, Ky., which had the highest number of suicides in 2009, 21, had 10 last year.

The Army’s rising suicide rate, which last approached its current levels in 1990 and 1991, during the Persian Gulf War, has puzzled Army officials. Suicides hit their lowest levels in the last 20 years in 2000, when 63 soldiers killed themselves, according to Army statistics.

The Army has made suicide prevention a top priority. It’s proposed shifting an unspecified part of proposed budget savings to suicide prevention programs next year, and soldiers now undergo training on spotting potential suicides among their comrades.

Health Continued from A1 The health care overhaul bill that passed the U.S. Congress last March included an array of new programs and regulations, including expanding Medicaid, giving subsidies for low-income families to buy insurance, aiding small businesses that provide insurance and putting new regulations on insurance companies.

It also requires nearly everyone to have health insurance, beginning in 2014. The measure to repeal the law now goes to the U.S. Senate,

Airport Continued from A1 Dave Gordon, the county’s legal counsel, explained the county had paid back some of the debt to the banks already, but still owed $1,003,110 at an interest rate of 4.78 percent.

By borrowing the more than $1 million from the road fund to pay back the banks this week, the county was able to draw up its own payment plan on the debt to the road fund.

is a common problem and can be diagnosed with several different tests. The most accurate study is an esophagogastroduodenoscopy or EGD. This is Kevin Reuter, performed under light anesthesia and a camera is passed M.D. into the stomach and first part of the small intestine to visualize the lining of the alimentary tract. Biopsies can be taken and bleeding controlled if an ulcer is visualized. The bacteria Helicobacter pylori can cause ulcers and treatment with a cocktail of medications including antibiotics can then be commenced if the bacteria is detected. Other ways to check for the bacteria are with a blood test, stool test, or a urea breath test. Risk factors for developing ulcers include smoking, alcohol abuse, illicit drug use, and use of NSAIDs such as ibuprofen or aleve. Complications such as stomach perforation or gastric outlet obstruction can occur if ulcers are left untreated.

In general, if you have had an ulcer, you should be on medication to help suppress gastric acid and your doctor can help you decide which medication to choose.

Winter Lewis, O.D., F.A.A.O.

Bifocal and monovision contact lenses allow for a wide range of focus with minimal need for reading glasses.

Bifocal lenses are superior for the office setting, providing good intermediate and reading range distances while maintaining good usable distance vision. Monovision, where we set one eye for distance and one eye for near, provides for strong distance vision with a nice “sweet spot” for reading.

If you have never worn contacts before, now is a good time to consider. Changes to lens material offer improved comfort and potential longer wearing time than older generation lenses. See your eye care professional to see which lens is right for you.

ANSWER: Depending upon your aesthetic priorities and exactly what facial features you have, a number of minimally invasive products and procedures are available that can help achieve your goals. For example, Botox® and/or injectable soft tissue fillers (there are many) or even your own fat from other areas of your body can be utilized to help smooth out tiny lines, shape facial contours or sculpt lips to perfection. At Bend Plastic Surgery we specialize in all aspects of minimally invasive facial procedures such as fat transfers.

It is important to also realize however that up to 25% of persons with whiplash injuries may continue to experience long term pain symptoms.

If you would like further information, feel free to contact our office.

Treatment can be in the form of a night guard if you are a mild grinder, only grind at night, and can tolerate an appliance while you sleep. If you don’t fit in this category then you need a different kind of treatment. Ideal treatment will stop your grinding and create harmony within your system. We treat moderate to severe bruxism by studying the muscles to determine the ideal position for your bite based on neutral muscles. The studies are very simple but involve sophisticated computer software and result in a very detailed understanding of why you grind. Once we have determined the problem, treatment is very predictable and usually results in the elimination of grinding.

Treatment should always focus on the problem and not just the symptom.

N AT U R AL M E D I C I N E QUESTION: Is hCG injection for weight loss really helpful in losing weight and reducing the chances of gaining the weight right back?

ANSWER: hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) for weight loss is not a new concept. It has been used in Europe for over 50 years and is based on the work of Dr. Albert T. Simeon. hCG is produced by the body during pregnancy and has historically been used in the Kerie Raymond, treatment of fertility and as an adjunct in testosterone N.D. replacement therapy. According to Dr. Simeon, hCG in the treatment of obesity helps to mobilize non-essential fat, decrease hunger pain, and reset the metabolic rate by its effects on the pituitary and thyroid gland. Based on Simeon’s research individuals lose roughly one pound each day and 85% do not gain weight back through what he calls a “resetting of the metabolic rate”. Dr. Simeon’s work is very controversial and strikes a chord in the multi-billion dollar diet industry. A review of literature found no statistical difference in weight loss between hCG plus low calorie diet and a low calorie diet alone. However, the hCG group did not gain as much weight back on follow-up and reported better well-being and less hunger than the low calorie diet alone. It must be kept in mind these were small studies.

We will be conducting a Weight loss/Detox class as a prelude to the hCG program starting Jan. 11th. Please call our ofice for more details.

QUESTION: What do you suggest for people who don’t need full assisted living but who can’t manage completely on their own?

ANSWER: Chronic whiplash injuries are notoriously

The other study published in the “Journal of Orthopaedic Medicine” revealed that 74% of chronic whiplash sufferers improved with chiropractic treatment.

Grinding of your teeth is primarily a musculature problem with a neurological component. It can almost always be linked back to slight developmental problems as youngsters and is linked to the quality of the airway during our early developmental years. The results of these early developmental problems leave us with an imbalance within the muscles associated with our bite.

When our teeth come together the muscles that close our bite and the muscles that open our bite should be neutral. If they are not neutral, then a muscle imbalance, or a “muscle war” starts and results in bruxism.

whiplash injury for over a year. I have taken pain and antiinflammatory prescriptions, had steroid injections, and have had months of physical therapy. I have been considering chiropractic treatment. Can chiropractic treatment offer any additional help with ongoing whiplash symptoms?

Two studies provide evidence that chiropractic is an effective treatment for chronic whiplash symptoms. In a 1996 study published in the journal “Injury,” chiropractic treatment was shown to help relieve pain symptoms for 93% of patients with chronic injuries.

Kelley Mingus, D.M.D.

ANSWER: Bruxism, or grinding of your teeth is a very common problem.

It is however a complex problem to completely understand. Until recently we were unable to prevent grinding and therefore were limited to treatment in the form of a night guard. Night guards can be effective at protecting your teeth if your grinding is just limited to night time grinding. Most people that suffer from bruxism are not limited to just night time grinding and actually have times during the day when they grind their teeth. The severity of bruxism can vary dramatically from one individual to another. Some cases are so severe that they can literally grind their teeth down to the gums.

QUESTION: I have been suffering from an automobile related

resistant to many forms of treatment. Whiplash injuries with symptoms persisting for greater than 6 months usually implicate injury to the joints at the back of the neck/spine (facet joints) or injury to the intervertebral disc. Conventional x-ray imaging, and even advanced diagnostic imaging such as CT or MRI may fail to reveal sub-failure ligament injuries or joint capsule injuries. This can lead to frustration as some patients and their physicians may not realize more significant injuries exist.

ANSWER: There are many older adults in this situation. Most remain at home or live in a retirement community in “independent living.”

They rely on family members or hire someone to provide the assistance they need each day/ week.

Another option is a service that Touchmark introduced last year. It’s called Support Suites™ and is ideal for people who need moderate care on a scheduled basis. Essentially, it’s a step between independent living and assisted living. Care is provided by licensed home care or home health professionals, and people pay only for the services they have scheduled. Folks tell us they like this option, because they get the help they need, and they are already living in a supportive environment with other services available if their needs increase.

9,400-year-old bone belongs to earliest domesticated dog

By Clarke Canfield The Associated Press

PORTLAND, Maine — Nearly 10,000 years ago, man’s best friend provided protection and companionship — and an occasional meal.

That’s what researchers are saying after finding a bone fragment from what they are calling the earliest confirmed domesticated dog in the Americas.

University of Maine graduate student Samuel Belknap came across the fragment while analyzing a sample of human waste unearthed in southwest Texas in the 1970s. A carbon-dating test put the age of the bone at 9,400 years, and a DNA analysis confirmed it came from a dog, Belknap said.

Friend ... and food?

Because it was found deep inside a pile of human excrement and was the characteristic orange-brown color that bone turns when it has passed through the digestive tract, the fragment provides the earliest direct evidence that dogs — besides being used for company, security and hunting — were eaten by humans and may even have been bred as a food source, he said.

Belknap wasn’t researching dogs when he found the bone.

He was looking into the diet and nutrition of the people who lived in the Lower Pecos region of Texas between 1,000 and 10,000 years ago. “It just so happens this person who lived 9,400 years ago was eating dog,” he said.

Belknap and other researchers from the University of Maine and the University of Oklahoma’s molecular anthropology laboratories, where the DNA analysis was done, have written a paper on their findings.

The paper has been scientifi-

Cell phones Continued from A1 The demand for cell site records has mushroomed as the ability to zero in on phones has become more and more precise, drawing criticism from civil libertarians and prompting some courts to take a new look at the legal ground rules for granting access to such data.

Law enforcement tool Prosecutors relied on similar historical cell data last year to link two Philadelphia men to a 2009 Pennsylvania home-invasion robbery that left a businessman dead after he was bound and beaten.

Cell site data also helped win the 2005 conviction of a Cliffside Park, N.J., man in the executionstyle shooting of his best friend in Fort Lee four years earlier, placing the gunman in a Brooklyn neighborhood where the victim’s Lincoln Navigator was torched.

The ability to retrace Jones’ steps on the day of the Carlstadt robbery using cell records proved to be highly incriminating in conjunction with other evidence, especially for a target who knew how to cover his tracks, said Assistant U.S. Attorney Christopher Gramiccioni, who prosecuted the case.

The FBI formed a dedicated unit, the Cellular Analysis and Survey Team, in late 2009 “because the need has been overwhelming across the country for this type of evidence,” FBI Special Agent William Shute testified at Jones’ trial in Newark last month.

The unit provides technical assistance, case support and training to federal, state and local law enforcement officers around the nation, he said.

In densely populated North Jersey, Shute said, records routinely kept by cellular service providers

cally reviewed and accepted for publication in the American Journal of Physical Anthropology later this year, said editor in chief Christopher Ruff.

Dogs have played an important role in human culture for thousands of years.

There are archaeological records of dogs going back 31,000 years from a site in Belgium, 26,000 years in the Czech Republic and 15,000 years in Siberia, said Robert Wayne, a professor of evolutionary biology at UCLA and a dog evolution expert. But canine records in the New World aren’t as detailed or go back nearly as far.

Dog bones For his research, Belknap — who does not own a dog himself — had fecal samples shipped to him that had been unearthed in 1974 and 1975 from an archaeological site known as Hinds Cave and kept in storage at Texas A&M University. The fragment is about six-tenths of an inch long and three- to four-tenths of an inch wide, or about the size of a fingernail on a person’s pinkie.

He and a fellow student identified the bone as a fragment from where the skull connects with the spine. He said it came from a dog that probably resembled the small, short-nosed, short-haired mutts that were common among the Indians of the Great Plains.

Judging by the size of the bone, Belknap figures the dog weighed about 25 to 30 pounds. He also found what he thinks was a bone from a dog foot, but the fragment was too small to be analyzed.

Other archaeological digs have put dogs in the U.S. dating back 8,000 years or more, but this is the first time it has been scientifically proved that dogs were here that far back, he said.

can be used to pinpoint a targeted phone to within three-quarters of a mile of the cell towers that originated and terminated its calls.

Privacy issues Though a boon to law enforcement, the government’s method of obtaining historical cell site data — without any showing of probable cause that tracking the location of a cell phone will turn up evidence of a crime — has come under fire from privacy advocates, civil libertarians and some federal judges in recent years.

The Stored Communications Act of 1986 allows prosecutors to obtain court orders for cell site logs merely by showing that the tracking information is “relevant and material” to an ongoing criminal probe. That is a much lower burden than the probable cause standard required under the Fourth Amendment, which guarantees the right of the people to be secure against unreasonable searches and seizures.

Kevin Bankston, a senior staff attorney with the Electronic Frontier Foundation, said the government’s reliance on warrantless cell tracking is cause for alarm. “People should be concerned because, whether they realize it or not, they’re carrying a tracking device in their pocket,” he said. “And phone companies are collecting data about where your phone is located, even when you’re not using it, that can reveal a really intimate portrait of how you spend your days and nights, where you go, who you associate with.

“This is a new cache of highly sensitive information,” he said.

“And we think that being able to go into the past and see everywhere you’ve been based on your cell phone’s location is just as invasive as, say, wiretapping your phone calls, which clearly is protected against by the Fourth Amendment.”

Darcy Morey, a faculty member at Radford University who has studied dog evolution for decades, said a study from the 1980s dated a dog found at Danger Cave, Utah, at between 9,000 and 10,000 years old. Those dates were based not on carbon-dating or DNA tests, but on an analysis of the surrounding rock layers.

“So 9,400 years old may be the oldest, but maybe not,” he said in an e-mail.

Morey said he is skeptical about DNA testing on a single bone fragment because dogs and wolves are so similar genetically.

Learning new tricks Belknap said there may well be older dogs in North America, but this is the oldest directly dated one he is aware of. For many years, researchers thought that dog bones from an archaeological site in Idaho were 11,000 years old, but additional testing put their age at between 1,000 and 3,000 years old, he said.

“If there’s one thing our discovery is showing it’s that we can utilize these techniques and learn a lot more about dogs in the New World if we apply these tests to all these early samples,” he said.

The earliest dogs in North America are believed to have come with the early settlers across the Bering land bridge from Asia to the Americas 10,000 years ago or earlier, said Wayne, who has not seen Belknap’s research.

It doesn’t surprise Belknap that dogs were a source of food for humans. A lot of people in Central America regularly ate dogs, he said, and across the Great Plains, some tribes ate dogs when food was scarce or for celebrations.

“It was definitely an accepted practice among many populations,” he said.

Courts weighing in Based on current cell phone and texting patterns, cell site data for a typical adult user will reveal between 20 and 55 location points a day — enough to plot his or her movements hour by hour, a federal magistrate judge in Houston noted in October in denying a bid for cell records.

In 2008, a U.S. magistrate in Philadelphia, acting in a drugtrafficking probe, refused to order a provider to disclose a customer’s historical cell tower data without a judicial finding of probable cause.

In a unique show of support, all of the other magistrates in the district joined in the judge’s opinion.

The government appealed all the way up to the Third U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia. Rather than settling the Fourth Amendment issue, the three-judge panel sent the case back to the lower court for additional fact-finding and analysis “that balances the government’s need (not merely desire) for the information with the privacy interests of cell phone users.”

The appeals court concluded that prosecutors can continue to obtain cell location data under the less-stringent relevancy standard laid out in the Stored Communications Act. But the court also held that judges can require a warrant showing probable cause, although they should use that option sparingly.

The government argued warrantless tracking is permitted because Americans enjoy no “reasonable expectation of privacy” when it comes to the whereabouts of their cell phones.

The court, however, agreed with EFF’s lawyers that cell customers do not voluntarily convey location information, especially when they receive calls, because it is unlikely they are aware their providers collect and store historical location data.

MTV via The Associated Press

“Skins” is a calculated risk

by MTV, a unit of Viacom, which is eager to get into the scripted programming business. The channel has long tested U.S. standards for sexuality and obscenity on television with shows like “The Real World” and “Jersey Shore.”

Those reality shows have generally involved adults, but for “Skins,” the producers purposefully cast actors ages 1519, most of whom had never acted before.

MTV’s president and other executives declined interview requests on Wednesday. An MTV spokeswoman, Jeannie Kedas, insisted that the future episodes of “Skins” were still works in progress. She would not confirm that executives were fearful of running afoul of child pornography laws. “‘Skins’ is a show that addresses real-world issues confronting teens in a frank way,” she said in a statement. “We review all of our shows and work with all of our producers on an ongoing basis to ensure our shows comply with laws and community standards.

We are confident that the episodes of ‘Skins’ will not only comply with all applicable legal requirements, but also with our responsibilities to our viewers.”

Child pornography is defined by the United States as any visual depiction of a minor engaged in sexually explicit conduct. In some cases, “a picture of a naked child may constitute illegal child pornography if it is sufficiently sexually suggestive,” according to the Justice Department’s legal guidance. Anyone younger

Rachel Thevenard, left, plays Michelle and Camille CresenciaMills plays Daisy in “Skins,” which premiered Monday on MTV. than 18 is considered to be a minor.

The youngest cast member on “Skins” is 15.

Drawing attention “Skins” is an import from Britain, a country that in contrast with the U.S. has historically displayed a higher tolerance for TV eroticism. Episodes there included simulated masturbation, implied sexual assault, and teenagers disrobing and getting into bed together. The early episodes for MTV are virtually identical to the source material.

With ads that feature groups of barely clothed teenagers, “Skins” is surely one of the most sexually charged programs that the channel has featured. Before it even had its premiere, the Parents Television Council, a TV watchdog group, labeled “Skins” the “most dangerous program that has ever been foisted on your children.”

The group objected to the gratuitous scenes of drug and alcohol use, violence and sexual acts by high school-age children.

Of course, those scenes may be what attract young viewers. The show is off to a running start. It attracted 3.3 million to its premiere on Monday; 2.7 million were 1234 years old, making “Skins” the most watched new show in the MTV history in that group.

Episodes of “Skins” are rated TV-MA, indicating that the content may be unsuitable for viewers younger than 17. MTV states in news releases that it is “specifically designed to be viewed by adults.” However, many of MTV’s

viewers are in middle and high school. According to the Nielsen Co., the first episode drew 1.2 million people younger than 18.

MTV noted that the episodes were being shown only at or after 10 p.m. EST, and said in the statement, “We also have taken numerous steps to alert viewers to the strong subject matter so that they can choose for themselves whether it is appropriate.”

Blurring the lines It is unclear when MTV first realized that the show may be vulnerable to child pornography charges. On Tuesday, a flurry of meetings took place at the network’s headquarters in New York, according to an executive who attended some of the meetings and spoke only on the condition of anonymity. In one of the meetings, the executives wondered aloud who could face criminal prosecution and jail time if the episodes were broadcast without changes.

There are, of course, innumerable examples of youthful sexuality being packaged by the media. Amy Adler, a professor of law at New York University who specializes in free speech, art and pornography, pointed to the teenage singer Miley Cyrus’ revealing photo shoots and the CW network’s use of condemnations by the Parents Television Council of the risque drama “Gossip Girl” to promote the show.

“There are times when I look at mainstream culture and think it is skirting up against the edge of child pornography law,” she said.

B U S I N E SS IN BRIEF Oregon jobless rate 10.6% in December Oregon’s seasonally adjusted unemployment rate was 10.6 percent in December, essentially unchanged from the revised November figure of 10.5 percent, the state Employment Department said in a news release Wednesday.

The rate has been between 10.5 and 10.7 percent for the most recent 14 months. Oregon’s unemployment rate also was 10.6 percent in December 2009. The U.S. seasonally adjusted unemployment rate was 9.4 percent in December.

In December, Oregon’s seasonally adjusted nonfarm payroll employment dropped by 1,800, following a revised gain of 2,800 in November, the news release said. On a seasonally adjusted basis, a slight gain of 400 jobs in the private sector for December was more than offset by a drop of 2,200 jobs in government.

December marked the fourth consecutive month of privatesector job gains in Oregon.

The state reported that 206,161 Oregonians were unemployed last month.

INSIDER TRADING CRACKDOWN

Major player in inquiry enters a guilty plea

By Peter Lattman New York Times News Service

NEW YORK — In August 2008, Danielle Chiesi, an executive at a New York hedge fund, was swapping confidential information with an associate about a pending reorganization of Advanced Micro Devices, a publicly traded semiconductor company.

“I swear to you in front of God,” she said. “You put me in jail if you talk. ...

I’m dead if this leaks. I really am ... and my career is over.”

Chiesi’s remarks, which were being recorded by the government, proved prescient.

Wednesday, standing before a federal judge in Manhattan, Chiesi pleaded guilty to three counts of participat-

“Today, Danielle Chiesi admitted to exploiting her access to valuable, non-

public information to reap $1.7 million in illegal gains,” said Preet Bharara, the U.S. attorney in Manhattan, in a statement. “Today’s plea should send yet another strong message that we have zero tolerance for privileged professionals who game the system and who think the rules apply only to everyone else.”

Chiesi is a central figure in the government’s sprawling, multiyear investigation into insider trading on Wall Street. The inquiry centers on the prosecution of Raj Rajaratnam, a billionaire investor who helped found the Galleon Group hedge fund. Rajaratnam, who has pleaded not guilty and whose trial is set for Feb. 28, is accused of receiving illegal tips from Chiesi.

Executive classes continue, attract more students Cornell and OSU-Cascades have high hopes for program’s future

By Jordan Novet The Bulletin

Executive education classes are back in session at the Oregon State University-Cascades Campus, which partnered last year with Cornell University’s School of Hotel Administration to offer the courses in Bend.

Students of the three-day course that wrapped up Wednesday — Leading and Motivating in the Real World, taught by Cornell professor Bruce Tracey — are eager to implement their new lessons, and a new class begins today.

“I’ve been doing this 30-plus years, but we’re focusing here on leadership, which is one of the things that’s really important, but not always urgent on a day-to-day (basis),” said Andrew Hutchison, general manager of the Best Western Plus Plaza by the Green in Kent, Wash. He said his supervisor told him about an opportunity to register for the course.

Facing deficits, states weigh film subsidies

By Michael Cieply New York Times News Service

LOS ANGELES — Preparing to deliver his first State of the State address last week, Gov. Chris Christie of New Jersey was looking at a $10.5 billion budget gap, a collapsing pension fund and a probable cut in Medicaid spending.

He was also being asked to put money aside for Hollywood.

Government subsidies for film and television productions proliferated in flush times as more than 40 states competed for entertainment work.

Those subsidies face an uncertain future as new governors and lawmakers, many of them fiscal conservatives, join incumbents like Christie in trying to balance budgets without losing jobs.

Airlines likely to increase fares

Polishing credit score can open financial doors

Soaring fuel prices are on the horizon for airlines, and that means higher ticket prices as carriers pass along the cost to travelers.

Since mid-December, U.S. carriers have tried to increase domestic fare prices four times, by $4 to $20 a round trip, according to data from FareCompare.com. Airline executives have hinted that more increases could be on the way.

Sherelle Villacorta had a good credit score, but like many people, she wanted a higher score.

Her strategy was to pay down her debt and keep current on her bills, but increase the amount of available credit. It worked. Within seven months, her credit score went from 697 to 758.

“I just recently graduated from college, so because of that I was relatively new to credit and having a lot of credPERSONAL scores it,” the 22-year-old University FINANCE of California-Berkeley graduate said. “If you have credit available but you don’t use a lot of it, you’ll have a higher credit score. I started paying down my debt and making sure I was spending only what I could afford.”

A planned spring opening of a new Visit Bend welcome center moved a step closer this week with word that design plans and tenant improvement permits have been submitted to the city of Bend.

“We expect construction to begin as soon as the city completes its plan review and approves the permits,” said Doug La Placa, president and CEO of Visit Bend, the city’s tourism-promotion agency.

Work to convert 2,800 square

feet of unfinished space on the ground floor of the Putnam Pointe building into a new Visit Bend welcome center and office is scheduled to be completed as early as mid-April, La Placa said.

“April is the goal for move-in right now, but we are flexible,” La Placa said. “We are ready to move in when the developer finishes the build-out.”

Developer Tom Kemper is paying construction costs for tenant improvements as part of a multiyear agreement to lease the space

to Visit Bend, La Placa said.

“Visit Bend will move into the space on a turn-key basis,” La Placa said. “The lease payments are the only thing in our budget,” other than minimal costs for some office furniture and equipment in addition to what is being moved from the current welcome center nearby on Harriman Street.

The upper floors were designated for affordable housing under a partnership agreement between the city and developer, he said.

Credit score range Credit scores, which can range from 300 to 850, are based on a number of factors but primarily come down to how well you pay off your bills.

760 or higher: Excellent. Your score is well above the average score of U.S. consumers and clearly demonstrates to lenders that you are an exceptional borrower.

725 to 759: Very good. Your score is above average and demonstrates to lenders that you are a very dependable borrower.

660 to 724: Good. Your score is near the average.

Most lenders consider this a good score.

560 to 659: Not good. Your score is below the average.

Some lenders will approve loans with this score.

Lower than 560: Bad. Your score is well below the average and demonstrates to lenders you are a very risky borrower.

more per month in rent for more space in what he called “a significantly superior location.”

Moving the welcome center and offices about two blocks to the corner of Lava Road and Oregon Avenue, near the downtown post office and parking garage, has several advantages for the agency, according to La Placa.

The interesting part of the move “is that we will be opening a state-of-the-art welcome center reflecting the energy and feel of Bend, not just your typical visitors center of the past,” La Placa said.

Lynnette Braillard, Visit Bend marketing director, said the additional space will allow the agency to expand its gift shop and create a full-service welcome center with kiosks featuring interactive touch screens connected to the Visit Bend website, which tourists can use to plan their Bend

“We will be the anchor tenant and the first tenant on the ground floor retail area,” La Placa said, which played a role in securing what he called an attractive deal. “Visit Bend’s welcome center attracts many thousands of visitors annually. As the anchor tenant, the foot traffic generated by the welcome center will create customers for tenants that choose to locate next to us” in the building.

With the lease expiring soon on the current welcome center location, La Placa said the time was right to move. La Placa said Visit Bend will pay about $600

Continued from B1 Midway through the day Wednesday, Hutchison said he realized he needs to spend more time developing the department managers and even entry-level staffers at his hotel.

About 20 people took the course. According to OSU-Cascades spokeswoman Christine Coffin, that’s up from a 12-person enrollment in the Cornell course OSU-Cascades offered in August, Strategic Marketing for Hotels and Restaurants, taught by professor Rob Kwortnik. That was the first Cornell course offered in the new Bend program.

Last year’s course mostly drew local hotel and restaurant management figures. Tracey’s course attracted people from as far away as the Seattle area.

Coffin said OSU-Cascades hopes the field of students will continue to widen across the Pacific Northwest and, eventually, the West Coast, turning the campus into a top destination for seekers of new, richer industry knowledge.

course. One of them, Teresa O’Neill, the agency’s director of international sales and marketing, said Travel Oregon CEO Todd Davidson is very supportive of the collaboration between Cornell and OSU-Cascades.

“We really want to support and ensure that this program is able to continue being offered,” O’Neill said. “But also (it is) an opportunity for us to build on leadership (for themselves and for their fellow staffers).”

The course, she said, has taught her some “bigger-picture leadership skills that will allow you to bring the organization to the next level.”

Vicki Westberg, general manager of Anthony’s Pier 66 & Bell Street Diner in Seattle, said her regional manager told her about the Cornell courses OSU-Cascades has been offering, and the two decided Tracey’s course was the one to attend. She and two colleagues were on hand for the course over all three days.

adventures and print a map and itinerary for lodging, restaurants, outdoor sights, activities and entertainment.

By making the kiosks and other elements in the welcome center movable, Visit Bend Operations Manager Valerie Warren said the center can easily convert into a large room that can accommodate community meetings and events.

“We want the new welcome center to be an inviting space that’s more open to the community,” not just for tourists, Warren said.

Braillard said the building’s location also is advantageous because it is easier to find off the Bend Parkway’s Hawthorne Avenue exit. That exit is marked with a blue visitor’s information sign visible to tourists driving to Bend from the north, which she said is the direction from which a

majority of Bend visitors come.

The adjacent garage also makes it easier for tourists to park and walk to the welcome center and stroll around downtown, she said.

Warren said the center will have an expanded gift shop featuring local artwork, beer glasses, coffee mugs, stainless steel water bottles, buttons and refrigerator magnets and other products made in Bend or marketing the Bend brand. The latter items include a popular new line of Bend Ale Trail T-shirts, caps and other items featuring the phrases “Man Against Beer” and “Girl Against Beer.” Visit Bend started the trail last year to help visitors experience the region’s growing number of microbreweries.

Westberg said she had attended other leadership classes and seminars in the past, but they never came at a time when she felt willing to change things in her positions. But Tracey’s course comes as she is feeling ready to work with managers on change.

“What I need to do is go back and sell the ideas to my managers that we need to make some changes to get everybody back on the vision (of the company) with an ultimate goal,” she said.

She said she has set deadlines for herself to put in effect some of the things she has learned this week.

John McLeod, director of business development at Mt. Bachelor ski area, was among the 20 students. He said he was enjoying the classroom experience, and he sees value in the lessons he’s learned.

“I think it will help us capitalize on this … for when the economy improves,” he said.

After the lunch break, Tracey spoke to the group about how to motivate employees. Some students took handwritten notes. Others just watched and listened to Tracey as he spoke, and a PowerPoint presentation emphasized key ideas.

Participants pay $1,895 for a three-day course. The fee covers breakfast and snacks during breaks.

Today a new class starts: Interactive Marketing for the Hospitality Industry, taught by professor Lisa Klein Pearo.

More Cornell classes will be held at OSU-Cascades in June — Strategic Pricing for Hotels and Restaurants: Leveraging Consumer and Marketing Knowledge to Enhance Revenue, June 13-15; and Customer Attitudes and Behaviors: Understanding Your Market, June 16-18. Both will be taught by professor Stowe Shoemaker.

Credit Continued from B1 Credit scores have a huge effect on your financial life. They can determine the interest rate you will pay on a mortgage or a car loan. For that matter, they make the difference in qualifying for a loan or being approved for a credit card.

After checking her credit score on CreditKarma.com in June before renting an apartment in Emeryville, Calif., Villacorta used some credit score tips she found on the website.

She added two retail credit cards at stores where she liked to shop to the two bank cards she already had, increasing and diversifying her credit limit while keeping her balances low.

“There is a difference between having a lot of credit versus having a lot of credit and using it and being in debt. People often confuse the two. They think, ‘If I have five credit cards, it means I’m probably carrying a lot of debt,’ but the reality is if you have five credit cards and use them very sparingly, that is actually a great credit attribute,” said Ken Lin, chief executive officer of San Francisco-based CreditKarma.com, which provides visitors with free access to credit scores.

Ed Merriman can be reached at 541-617-7820 or emerriman@bendbulletin.com.

Leadership styles Tracey said the course began with exercises in self-assessment, for the students to identify their own leadership styles and capabilities. He went on to introduce case studies and share a bounty of ideas the students can incorporate into their companies’ operations.

“Customer satisfaction is directly related to employee satisfaction,” Tracey said during Wednesday’s lunch break. If employees can feel good about their work, loyalty among customers will follow, resulting in higher revenue. Therefore, he said, it is essential for a company’s executives to develop their employees.

Why scores matter A FICO score is the credit score used by most lenders in making these decisions. The higher the score, the lower a consumer’s future credit risk.

Payment history — the biggest factor in setting FICO scores — accounts for 35 percent of the calculation, followed by amounts owed at 30 percent. So it’s not surprising that the key recommendation to raising credit scores is paying off existing debt and keeping current on bills.

“In the majority of cases where people have poor credit, they need to get caught up. The next thing they need to do is make sure going forward is that all of those are paid on time,” Lin said.

a great credit score make compared to a poor one? Consider this: A consumer with a score of 760 would have a monthly payment of $750 on a $25,000 auto loan over a three-year period based on a 4.9 percent interest rate. Someone with a poor credit score of 600 would have a monthly payment of about $900 based on an interest rate of 17.7 percent, according to www.myfico.com.

Raising the score Having a low balance compared to your actual credit limit, whether it is on a single or several cards, helps raise scores. A credit balance should be no more than 25 to 35 percent of a consumer’s available credit, experts advise.

It is import to check your credit report periodically to make sure they are no errors that can lower your score, such as not getting acknowledgment for a paid bill.

Consumers can check for mistakes by going to www.annual creditreport.com or calling 877322-8228 to order free copies of credit reports from the three major credit reporting bureaus.

Scores also are helped by a credit history that includes keeping current on a mix of credit card payments and installment debt such as car loans and mortgages.

“Having a mix of credit is important to show you can be a reliable (borrower),” said Shon Dellinger, vice president of San Rafael-based www.myfico.com, which has both free and subscriber-based tools to help consumers manage credit.

Having three to five credit cards used responsibly can help improve a credit score, Dellinger said. Before adding a new credit card, it’s a good idea to first know your credit score, he added.

Consumers who want a free estimate of their score can go to www.myfico.com/ficocredit scoreestimator. It will not provide the exact FICO score, but it will offer an estimated range based on answers to questions such as when they last missed a payment or added a new credit card.

Client slowdown affects Goldman Sachs earnings

By Susanne Craig

Goldman Sachs, headquartered in New York, saw its earnings fall 53 percent in the fourth quarter.

The company attributed the slowdown to sharp declines in its investment banking businesses amid economic uncertainty.

New York Times News Service

Goldman Sachs has long had a knack for beating the market, even in uncertain financial times.

But lately it seems the lackluster economy has gotten the better of the firm.

The Wall Street bank, which reported a 53 percent drop in fourth-quarter earnings on Wednesday, experienced a noticeable slowdown in most of its important divisions, citing increased competition and depressed client activity amid economic uncertainty.

No big spender has yet pulled out of the subsidy business, although Arizona, Iowa and Kansas have suspended or dropped their relatively small programs.

In Missouri, meanwhile, a bipartisan review of all the state’s tax credits recommended that a film incentive be dropped, but no bill has been introduced to do so.

That has been enough to send a shudder through Hollywood, where producers have come to rely on taxpayer support for films like “How Do You Know,” “The Social Network,” “Love and Other Drugs,” “127 Hours” and many others.

“If you take that away, I think production will leave the U.S.,” a producer, Brian Oliver, said.

divisions.

In a nod to just how difficult the environment has become, Goldman’s return on equity, a measure of profitability, fell to 11.5 percent in 2010, down from 22.5 percent in the previous year and 32.8 percent in 2006. “I think for

the time being this is the new reality,” said Roger Freeman, an analyst with Barclays Capital. “It is not doom and gloom out there in the economy. What is missing are things like the structured products and derivatives that were helping their earnings.”

Countries like New Zealand, which is helping to underwrite a $500 million production of two films based on J.R.R. Tolkien’s “The Hobbit,” from Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer and Warner Brothers’ New Line Cinema unit, may well pick up more production from the United States if states cut support.

In a ferocious debate over the efficacy of film incentives — advocates say they create employment, while critics say they are inefficient and merely shuffle jobs around — New Jersey has been on the front line.

Both houses of the Democratcontrolled Legislature passed a bill Jan. 10 reviving and expanding a tax credit that underwrites up to 20 percent of certain expenses of a film. Last year, Christie suspended the program in the fiscal crunch.

“It was one of the first things

to go, and it wasn’t that difficult a call,” Michael Drewniak, a spokesman for Christie, said of the governor’s decision to halt the credit as he confronted a ballooning deficit.

But even advocates for the credits — which often give a film company direct or indirect cash payments even if no tax is owed — acknowledge that the itinerant nature of film work makes it difficult to hold on to movie jobs.

This fact has often left states bidding against each other for a finite pool of films and television shows.

“The industry is so mobile, it can go anywhere,” said Joseph Chianese, a senior vice president with Entertainment Partners, which advises the film business regarding credits and other matters.

It is only natural, Chianese said, that a new group of governors and legislators should be reassessing the incentive programs, although he cautioned against assuming that even the most financially troubled state would be quick to abandon support for highly visible glamour jobs.

“If you retract these incentives, a lot of new facilities will be sitting empty,” Chianese said.

OREGON PUBLIC RECORDS

Sentence Attorney general wants more transparency Krastev to 2 years, feds advise

By Lauren Dake The Bulletin

Oregon Attorney General John Kroger announced Wednesday he is pushing for an overhaul of the state’s public records law with the goal of making public documents easier to obtain and improving government transparency.

“This is the most significant overhaul of government transparency law in several decades,” Kroger said.

Kroger’s proposed legislation would impose deadlines on state agencies and put a cap on fees. Within two days, public agencies would have

to acknowledge the public document request. Within 10 business days, the public body would have to provide the requested documents or claim an exemption. Also, John Kroger agencies wouldn’t be able to charge more than three times the minimum wage or the actual cost of staff time, whichever was less.

“Public records law as it stands has no firm deadline that agencies have

to respond to (a) record request,” said Judson Randall, president of Open Oregon, a nonprofit geared toward teaching people their rights regarding public records and meeting laws in Oregon. “The current law basically talks about a reasonable amount of time, which is open to a lot of interpretations. Agencies, under the current law, can sit on requests for a while.”

Before, costs were generally left to the agencies’ discretion.

“Some of the agencies were charging all over the lot,” Randall said.

“They might have a clerk who is suddenly worth $50 an hour.”

Kroger also proposed eliminating more than 100 exemptions. His initiative includes mandating that public meetings be audio recorded, including executive sessions.

The proposals will go to the state’s lawmakers next. Kroger said transparency proposals have been voted down by lawmakers in past legislative sessions, but he said he hopes this will be different since it comes from a government agency. Plus, he said, he’ll be going door to door in the Capitol, talking to lawmakers about the proposal.

Bend-La Pine immersion program works to improve literacy skills in Spanish, English

By Sheila G. Miller The Bulletin

In a kindergarten classroom at Bear Creek Elementary on Wednesday, students were learning about the letter “E.” The letter was on the board, and students read basic books and wrote sentences with “e” words, words like elefante, espejo and escalera.

This is the Bend-La Pine Schools’ new language immersion program, a first-year program in which two full-day kindergarten classes are featuring instruction almost entirely in Spanish.

District leaders say the program is a way to provide a world-class education and improve all students’ literacy skills. School officials say they’ve been impressed by how quickly students are catching on.

“I was really unsure of how quick the transformation would be,” Principal Matt Montoya

said. “It’s been really quick.”

The Spanish-English immersion program started this fall in the kindergarten classes and is expected to expand each year into the next grade level. The goal of the program is to provide English development for Spanishspeaking students, while building language proficiency for English speakers as well.

Dana Arntson, the district’s federal services director, said the program was opened to families in the Juniper Elementary and Bear Creek attendance areas.

More than 50 percent of the district’s English-language learner population attend Juniper and Bear Creek elementaries. About 75 percent of the 52 students in the two kindergartens come from those schools, and 25 percent of the program’s students are from the remainder of the district, with parents signing area-change requests.

BEND CITY COUNCIL

Market given 30 days to begin changing code

By Nick Grube The Bulletin

Bend Indoor Markets has 30 days to initiate a change in the city’s development code to stay at its current location on Scott Street or take its chances with the Bend City Council.

The market is now operating as a retail space in a light industrial zone in violation of the city’s code. City officials have said the market’s owners could ask for text amendment to

this code to continue operations, but that’s something that would cost around $12,000, and a process that has not been initiated yet.

On Wednesday, dozens of vendors from the market flooded City Hall to plead with councilors to help them keep the doors open and possibly help them pay for this cost by having the city undertake the text amendment itself.

Commissioners OK deputy DAs’ labor contract

By Scott Hammers The Bulletin

Declan Powderly, 5, works on Spanish-language flashcards in his kindergarten class at Bear Creek Elementary on Wednesday.

The Deschutes County Board of Commissioners approved a contract with the newly-formed union representing deputy district attorneys on Wednesday, overriding the objections of District Attorney Patrick Flaherty.

With the adoption of the contract, the district attorney will no longer be able to fire deputies without cause. Deputy district attorneys voted to form the union last fall after Flaherty announced he planned to dismiss some of the deputies hired by former District Attorney Mike Dugan, whom Flaherty defeated in an election last May. Five deputy district attorneys, including chief deputy Darryl Nakahira, have been fired since Flaherty was sworn in Jan. 3. A new chief deputy and two deputy district attorneys have been hired, with a third new deputy district attorney scheduled to come on board next week.

In an e-mail Wednesday night, Flaherty declined to comment on the commissioners’ action, and provided a letter he had sent to commissioners prior to their vote.

Surgeons Inc. co-owner guilty in theft, illegal sales

By Scott Hammers The Bulletin

One of two people accused of stealing from investors in a wellness center company was sentenced in Deschutes County District Court Wednesday.

Laurie Rose, 42, a co-owner of Surgeons Inc. with Todd Surgeon, 40, will avoid a trial after entering Alford pleas to charges of first-degree theft, aggravated first-degree theft, unlicensed sale of securities and the sale of unregistered securities. In an Alford plea, the accused does not admit guilt, but concedes there is sufficient evidence that they could be

“She’s (Todd Surgeon’s) main victim. Yes, these people are out of money, but she’s going to jail. He hooked her and used her to reel these people in.”

— Brendan Alexander, Laurie Rose’s attorney found guilty if their case were to go to trial.

Rose will serve 75 days in prison and will receive credit for time served, placing her release date in mid-February.

Surgeon is still being held at the Deschutes County Jail, and is due to enter a plea on Jan.

26. As part of her plea agreement, Rose agreed to testify if Surgeon’s case goes to trial.

Surgeon was previously convicted of racketeering, embezzlement and securities fraud, and served eight years in prison in Nevada.

In past statements to The

Bulletin, a Deschutes County deputy district attorney said Surgeon is wanted on a warrant from California, where he owes about $600,000 in restitution stemming from his prior conviction.

Individuals who lost money to Surgeons Inc. and spoke at Rose’s sentencing Wednesday said they did not know about Surgeon’s past convictions when they invested. Brendan Alexander, Rose’s attorney, said Rose had also been unaware of Surgeon’s past when they met and started the business.

Bend Continued from C1 They told stories of their personal struggles, from losing their jobs and their homes to living with disabilities. They even held up a string of signatures from 722 people who supported the market, and noted that there were 82 vendors who depended on the market’s existence. “The burning question is are you going to keep these people employed or not?� said Steve White, the owner of Bend Indoor Markets. “Is this council up to the task that our local government is the solution and not the problem?�

Despite these urgings, the council was divided on what to do.

Some, including Mayor Jeff Eager and Councilors Scott Ramsay and Jim Clinton, said they felt the market helps to foster business and provide jobs at a time when employment is at a premium.

But other councilors felt that if the city pursued a text amend-

Surgeons Inc. Continued from C1 In a brief statement to Circuit Court Judge Stephen Tiktin, Rose told the court Wednesday she had handled the “hands-on� aspects of the business, and was not involved in Surgeon’s dealings with investors.

Alexander described Surgeon as “one of the most amazing salespeople the world has ever seen,� and said he took advantage of Rose’s faith in the treatments promoted by the wellness centers. Alexander described how even after Rose had grown suspicious of Surgeon and had obtained a restraining order against him, he was able to persuade her to go to one of their investors and collect more than $1,000 to

I do have sympathy for the businesses that are there.�

Councilor Tom Greene also opposed paying the $12,000 for the text amendment, and said he had talked with other people in the area who have space available for the vendors. “With our budget restraints right now I don’t know where we’d find the $12,000,� Greene said.

Ramsay, on the other hand, felt that by helping Bend Indoor Markets stay in business and changing the development code, the city could provide more opportunities for similar business endeavors to develop in other parts of Bend.

pay off a hotel tab he’d rung up at The Riverhouse. “She’s his main victim. Yes, these people are out of money, but she’s going to jail,� Alexander said. “He hooked her and used her to reel these people in.�

Joanne Lee, who invested $49,000 with Surgeons Inc. to set up a wellness center franchise, told the courtroom how she had became homeless after losing all of her money. She said she repeatedly appealed to Rose and Surgeon to return her money or provide the equipment they had promised her, but was rebuffed. Lee eventually joined with other dissatisfied investors and began picketing an office occupied by Rose and Surgeon on Bend’s east side. “My guess is they assumed I had

He said these markets could then become business “incubators� that might one day grow.

Clinton agreed with this sentiment, and said he thought there might be some other solutions to explore — rather than just paying for a text amendment — that could also help support this type of economic development. “I think the city should go forward with finding a solution for it,� Clinton said. “This fills an important need in a community like ours, especially when times are tight.�

Ultimately, councilors couldn’t come to a decision on what to do about Bend Indoor Markets and the possibility of pursuing a text amendment that would allow for retail use in industrial areas.

Instead, they agreed to give White a month to pursue his own amendment to the code, and planned to revisit the issue in February.

Lee said.

After Rose’s sentencing, Lee said she agreed with much of what her attorney had said about her being taken advantage of by Surgeon, but insisted Rose knew enough about what was going on to be held responsible.

Lee said she was not completely satisfied with Rose’s sentence, but is looking forward to seeing Surgeon face stiffer penalties when he appears in court. “We’re throwing away the little fish to get the big fish,� Lee said.

Of the 52 students in the two classes, half are native English speakers and half are native Spanish speakers.

The classroom teachers speak only Spanish to the students, which Wiencek said motivates students to learn the language. But music, library and physical education classes are all in English, and students who qualify as English-language learners still receive their 30 minutes of sheltered English time.

Wiencek said the program benefits English learners and Spanish learners differently, but both groups benefit. The native Spanish speakers in the group will gain literacy in their primary language, making it easier for them to become literate in English as well. The native English speakers in the class will gain access to a second language and become literate in both languages. “These kids are learning and reading and writing and talking and restating teach-

herty said the move should provide some relief for detectives at local agencies, allowing them to focus on pending criminal investigations.

In his Wednesday night e-mail, Flaherty wrote that Stiles and Stone are already working on the Lori “Woody�

Blaylock murder investigation, and will be available at all hours for homicide and officerinvolved shooting cases.

Stiles and Stone bring nearly 60 years of combined experience in law enforcement to their new jobs, Flaherty wrote in the news release. “Both are universally respected by police agencies, defense attorneys and prosecutors,� he wrote. “The wealth of knowledge they bring to the table is tremendous.�

New hires in office In related business, the district attorneys office announced the hiring of two new employees on Wednesday.

In a news release, Flaherty said he has hired former Deschutes County Sheriff Les Stiles and former Bend Police Lieutenant Jerry Stone as special investigators.

Special investigators assist prosecutors with pending cases, collecting additional information after local law enforcement agencies have handed off the case to the district attorney’s office. In the news release, Fla-

er directions,� Montoya said. “That’s a sign that they’re learning. They’re helping each other learn.�

Arntson said that while there is some expense associated with starting the new program, it’s the same as is associated with starting a new advanced placement class at a high school. But, she noted, these are district students who would be enrolled in a kindergarten class anyway, so the class itself doesn’t cost more to run.

$23,000 per year The district has spent about $23,000 on the program this year; $20,000 of that is for language-arts textbooks for the two classrooms, and the rest pays for extra planning time and travel time to visit schools conducting similar programs in other parts of Oregon.

On Wednesday, the students in Stephanie Montoya’s classroom listened to her instructions, then went about reading their books aloud to one another in Spanish.

Some students spoke in Spanish to one another, others in English. Sometimes, kids spoke both languages to one another in the space of a few minutes. “They start (speaking in Spanish) when they’re ready,�

Wiencek said.

So far, school officials have noticed English-language learners in the dual-language kindergarten classes seem to be picking up English faster because of their interactions with peers.

And all students’ pronunciation is coming close to sounding like that of native speakers, in both English and Spanish.

Wiencek said many of the parents she spoke to about the program chose to enroll their kindergartners because of the effect they think it will have on a child’s brain development. “It’s making them learn more, making the brain work more, and work in two languages,� she said. “That was a hook for parents.�

On Wednesday, the two duallanguage classrooms looked just

like any other kindergarten classrooms throughout the district; students sat on a small rug looking through word cards while others were grouped at tables working on writing and reading.

The only difference is, all of the signs around the classrooms are in Spanish. In one classroom, students were grouped in tables as animals: los osos (the bears), los tigres (the tigers) and los elefantes (the elephants).

Teachers spoke in Spanish quickly but clearly, and students responded to their commands.

Energy required Kindergarten teacher Stephanie Montoya, who is not related to Principal Matt Montoya, said teaching the class can be tiring. “At this point in the year, it’s better,� she said. “But it’s exhausting, not only because of the language barrier for the kids and for me, but I have to be really dramatic and theatrical. It’s like a long game of charades.�

Still, she thinks it’s working. “Just seeing how well both groups are doing,� she said, makes it worth it. “I’m surprised at how well they’re picking up my verbal cues. If you walked in and you saw the flow of the class, you’d never guess that half of the students are not native speakers in the language I’m teaching.�

Long-term, Arntson said, the district plans to offer some Spanish immersion classes at Pilot Butte Middle School and then funnel the students who participate in the program to the International Baccalaureate program at Bend High. “The goal is to continue that language development,� she said. “We don’t want them to lose it.

That’s the district’s commitment.�

I B Kitzhaber readies proposed state budget for Feb. 1 SALEM — Gov. John Kitzhaber says his draft state budget is ready to be prepared for delivery to the Legislature on Feb. 1.

Kitzhaber said Wednesday he directed the Budget and Management Division of the Department of Administrative Services to review the numbers for a proposed budget that will be balanced on existing revenue sources.

The governor said his priority will be to prevent budget problems instead of trying to fix them after they have developed.

Kitzhaber said it was too early to discuss specific budget amounts, but he emphasized the proposal will be guided by the principles he’s outlined for managing state revenue.

Judge frees Ashland man in Islamic charity case EUGENE — A federal judge has freed an Oregon man whose conviction in September on money smuggling charges has been thrown into question.

Judge Michael Hogan ruled Wednesday that Pete Seda could be released, wearing a GPS device constantly, while his lawyers argue the conviction should be thrown out or that he get a new trial.

Seda was convicted of tax fraud and conspiracy in what the government said was a plot to send about $150,000 through an Islamic charity he managed in Ashland to Saudi Arabia.

Prosecutors said the money was intended to aid Muslims fighting the Russians in Chechnya.

But after the trial, federal prosecutors acknowledged they didn’t tell defense lawyers about payments made to the husband of a witness and about discussions of paying the witness.

Judge says Lane County commissioners broke law EUGENE — A judge has ruled that two Lane County commissioners violated Oregon public meetings law in 2009 and are liable for hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal expenses in the case.

Coos County Circuit Judge Michael Gillespie also faulted two other commissioners.

Gillespie handed down his ruling Tuesday after hearing testimony in December and reviewing evidence in a lawsuit accusing commissioners Rob Handy and Pete Sorenson of violating public meetings law while Handy lined up votes to approve personal assistants for commissioners.

But Handy and Sorenson defended their actions and their commitment to open government, and said they are planning a response.

Waters of the Sandy River flow down East Lolo Pass as people are left stranded in Zigzag on Monday. No injuries were reported, and no one was missing in the area near the town of Welches, said Tim Heider, public information officer for Clackamas County.

Downed power lines left the area without electricity, and there was no cell phone ser-

NOAA Fisheries Service spokesman Brian Gorman said Wednesday the agency will not fight the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruling last November.

The Humane Society of the United States filed the lawsuit

to stop the federally authorized program that has killed 27 California sea lions in two years.

The court said NOAA Fisheries had failed to show how it could let fishermen kill some endangered salmon, when it would not let sea lions eat a smaller number of fish.

SALEM — A new report recommends building a state psychiatric hospital in Junction City with fewer than half the beds planned.

In a separate report, a consulting firm says reforms at the Oregon State Hospital are hindered by the culture at the main state psychiatric facility in Salem — including distrust, poor communication and a lack of accountability.

Mental health advocates say the state should scrap the proposed Junction City mental psychiatric hospital, not downsize it, The Statesman Journal reported.

“This stinks entirely of politics, which is unfortunate considering real families and real people will be impacted,” Chris Bouneff, executive director of NAMI Oregon, a chapter of the National Alliance on Mental Illness, wrote Tuesday in a message to Richard Harris, director of the state Addictions and Mental Health Division.

Bouneff and others say the state mental health budget will be eaten up by adding a second psychiatric hospital only about 50 miles away from the new hospital under construction in Salem to replace aging buildings at the existing facility.

‘Right-sizing’ the facility A decision on whether to proceed with the Junction City hospital is a potentially contentious issue for Oregon lawmakers as the state faces a projected $3.5 billion shortfall in the 2011-13 budget cycle, which starts July 1.

Legislators have approved the two-hospital package, costing $458 million.

Senate President Peter Courtney, D-Salem, one of the leading proponents of the Junction City project in the Legislature, said Tuesday the new state report confirms need for more hospital-level mental health care in Oregon.

“At the same time, we don’t have much money,” Courtney said.

“We are working hard to meet the Justice Department mandates at the Oregon State Hospital and we are also trying to add more communitybased beds,” he said. “‘Right-sizing’ the Junction City facility will help us meet these critical goals with our limited resources.”

Forget the kicker and cut spending

O

regonians have love-hate relationships with so many public policies, from those steering urban development to those protecting the spotted owl, that it’s tough to pick

a favorite — or least favorite, depending upon your point of view.

Nevertheless, we’re going with the income tax “kicker,” in part because even the state Legislature can’t seem to decide whether the policy is a good thing or a bad thing.

Here’s what we mean. Back in 2000, Oregonians voted to place the income tax “kicker” in the Constitution. But who placed the measure on the ballot? Not Bill Sizemore, Don McIntire or any other anti-tax activist. Nope. The deed was done by state lawmakers, some of whom now want to ask voters to undo what their colleagues asked them to do about a decade ago.

The kicker, which dates back to the late 1970s, is intended to moderate government growth, which it accomplishes by setting a revenue trigger.

The law divides general fund money into two “pots,” according to the Legislative Revenue Office. One pot contains corporate income taxes and the other personal income taxes. If the revenue in either pot exceeds projections by 2 percent or more, than all unanticipated revenue in that pot is returned to its taxpayer group.

While critics point out, correctly, that the kicker penalizes state government for guessing incorrectly, the arbitrary nature of its trigger masks a valid policy goal. Because Oregon’s general fund relies heavily upon a very volatile revenue source — the income tax — lawmakers are tempted to spend wildly when times are good.

But that level of spending can’t be maintained when revenue drops, as it always does. By limiting good-time spending, the “kicker” helps mitigate bad-time suffering.

But what happens when — as is the case now — tax revenue triggers the kicker in the midst of a historic budget crisis? Oregon faces a multibillion-dollar shortfall next biennium, yet businesses are on track to receive a $24 million kicker. As kickers go, $24 million is very modest, but still ...

At times like this, naturally, the kicker itself becomes a target. A move is now afoot in the Legislature to place a kicker-related constitutional amendment on the ballot, presumably with the goal of steering some portion of the kicker regularly into a rainy day fund. This change, we predict, will be characterized in Salem as a “fix” to the kicker, as if the current law were broken.

In fact, the kicker law already contains a “fix” designed to address circumstances like today’s. The constitutional amendment voters approved (with legislative backing) in 2000 allows lawmakers to suspend the kicker with a two-thirds vote in each chamber. Technically, lawmakers would vote to reset the revenue forecast, says Legislative Revenue Officer Paul Warner, but the effect is the same. In this way, he says, the Legislature in 2007 voted to keep a $344 million corporate kicker, steer-

The Legislature’s real problem over the years hasn’t been the kicker at all, but the spending discipline for which the kicker acts as a crude substitute. Session after session, lawmakers demonstrate that they have no such discipline — which is why the 1999 Legislature asked voters to impose discipline upon them and their successors by placing the kicker on the ballot. ing the money into a rainy day fund.

Even as they raided the corporate kicker in 2007, it’s worth noting, lawmakers kept their hands off a much larger — nearly $1.1 billion — personal income tax kicker. It takes a lot more courage to take money from individual taxpayers, who vote, than it does to take money from corporations, which do not.

And courage is what today’s kicker crusade is really about. What lawmakers really want is to shed the burden of arguing on a case-by-case basis that they’d make better use of taxpayers’ money than taxpayers themselves. That’s a particularly difficult case to make these days — recession notwithstanding — considering the fact that the state recently boosted taxes significantly upon the very businesses whose kickers lawmakers now want to grab. How many times can the Legislature raise taxes on businesses during a single recession?

In any case, the kicker debate strikes us as a straw man in the making. The Legislature’s real problem over the years hasn’t been the kicker at all, but the spending discipline for which the kicker acts as a crude substitute. Session after session, lawmakers demonstrate that they have no such discipline — which is why the 1999 Legislature asked voters to impose discipline upon them and their successors by placing the kicker on the ballot.

So, if lawmakers want the $24 million or so corporations stand to receive at the end of the biennium, they should have the guts to take it, as the law allows, and suffer the consequences. But if they want to demonstrate real courage, they should forget about grabbing every last bit of money they can find and make the cuts necessary to bring the cost of government in line with the revenue at hand.

I won’t miss Joe Lieberman M

y eyes are dry as I ponder Joe Lieberman’s decision to not seek re-election. Voices on the right regard Connecticut’s independent senator as a victim of left-wing intolerance. I see him as a sanctimonious hypocrite, political opportunist and double-crosser. Guess I don’t like him.

Lieberman’s steadfast support of the pointless Iraq War only partly explains his low poll numbers back home. It was the whole package of moral-mouthing grandiosity that turned hearts cold.

When an anti-war businessman defeated him in the 2006 Democratic primary, the right wing treated his loss as some kind of coup d’etat. Lieberman felt the same way, announcing with great self-importance, “For the sake of our state, our country and my party, I cannot, I will not let this result stand.”

He ran as an “Independent Democrat.” That was his prerogative, and he prevailed in the three-way race by promising Democrats that he would organize with their party. A mere five days after his victory, he’s on “Meet the Press,” saying, “I’m not ruling out” becoming a Republican.

Lieberman loved to make the rounds on conservative talk shows, grinning as the hosts praised him for frustrating liberals. It was all about tormenting the Democrats he felt betrayed him. It was all about Joe. In 1998, Republicans tried to use Bill Clinton’s foolish dalliance with Monica Lewinsky to force a democratically elected president from office. The

FROMA HARROP government’s business nearly froze for several months. When Clinton ordered the bombing of a suspected alQaida chemical weapons factory in Sudan, his foes accused him of trying to distract attention from their all-important inquisition. (As al-Qaida was planning its Sept. 11, 2001, massacre, Republicans were dancing around the maypole with Monica’s stained blue dress.)

Rather than help bring the nonsense to an end, Lieberman used the occasion to demonstrate his moral excellence.

It’s the “anything goes” mindset, he orated, “that has helped to threaten the integrity and stability of the family, which continues to be the most important unit of civilized society, the place where we raise our children and teach them to be responsible citizens, to develop and nurture their personal and moral faculties.”

This is a man who had broken up his own family by divorcing his first wife.

Give Lieberman this: He ended last year on a high note, with a heartfelt support for letting gay people openly serve in the military. He also deserves two thumbs up for his work on initiatives to combat global warming, some-

thing most Republicans would not touch.

The political realities had left Lieberman without a credible path to victory in the 2012 election. As the years wore on, Connecticut Democrats’ distaste for Lieberman spread beyond the party’s liberal core. And he broke too many times with Republicans on social issues and taxes to be their standard-bearer.

My guess is that he is negotiating — or has already struck a deal — with K Street. A good choice would be a lobbying firm serving the insurance industry. He served insurers well.

He had backed a plan to let people over 50 buy into Medicare. But when Democrats struggling for Senate approval of the health care reforms proposed the same thing, he turned against it. (The plan would have cut into private insurers’ business.)

He threatened to filibuster any legislation that included a public option — a government-run health plan that would have competed with private coverage. The public option would have saved taxpayers money, but would have contained what private insurers could have charged.

Goodbye, Joe Lieberman. You’ve done America harm, though you’ve also done some good. May others join me in not mourning your impending departure from the U.S. Senate.

Bipartisan Congress acted to help the wealthy

By Bob Brookover Bulletin guest columnist

W

ell, our gridlocked government finally worked in a bipartisan fashion to pass some economic tax legislation. Two groups of citizens will be affected. For one group, there will be an 13-month extension of unemployment benefits. Millions of unemployed Americans who had run out of time will be able to make their house payments, pay their utility bills and buy groceries.

But a much smaller group of very wealthy Americans really has cause to celebrate. Through the generosity of the GOP, the Bush-era tax cuts that were due to expire have been extended along with a windfall from changes to the estate tax.

For anyone who was paying attention, you might recall that during the first half of 2010 the GOP made many speeches denouncing federal spending. So, they must have had to hold their noses to agree to

this bill, as the changes to the estate tax for the wealthiest will add close to $140 billion to the deficit and the extended tax cuts will add another $800 billion.

What is the plan for cutting the deficit? The new rules the GOP hopes to adopt require offsets only for entitlement increases, not for tax cuts! If their plan doesn’t include much tax income, then they would expect that job growth in the economy will supply money to pay down the deficit.

The non-partisan Tax Policy Center indicated that only a modest economic stimulus would be felt as a result of tax cuts for the wealthiest because the rich are less likely to spend their tax savings.

They can send their savings anywhere around the globe for the highest returns.

When the rich get a disproportionate share of the total income, the economy is robbed of the demand it needs to keep growing and creating jobs. Keep in mind that in 1976, the top 1 percent of the earn-

IN MY VIEW ers had 8.9 percent of the total income.

By 2007, that top 1 percent’s share has risen to 23.5 percent! During this same period, the average inflation-adjusted hourly wage declined by almost 7 percent. How much income disparity there is today is anybody’s guess. This is a gift that keeps on giving.

David Leonhardt of the New York Times offers; “Consider what happened after the Bush tax cuts became law. Job losses continued for two more years and growth after that was mediocre.” In his book, “The Price of Loyalty,” George Bush’s U.S. Treasury secretary, Paul O’Neill, describes how Bush’s innermost circle advocated a reduction in the surplus left by the Clinton years.

O’Neill agreed with reducing the surplus with the caveat that if the surplus evaporated, a “trigger” would be

linked to the cuts. This trigger would create a host of reactions. For example, if the surplus disappeared, the tax cut, among other things, would be reined in. For O’Neill and Alan Greenspan, if there was an economic slowdown, they did not want to see the country slip into deficit. Their view of history’s “top line” was succinct: We went through this before under Ronald Reagan, and it took nearly two decades to pay off the debts.

Tax cuts are easy, spending cuts are hard. O’Neill and Greenspan viewed the tax cut as maybe a once-in-a-lifetime surplus to be protected for the one thing they had dreamed of for three decades, saving Social Security.

Our representative, Greg Walden, seems to have forgotten his campaign ads from the most recent election. His ads indicated he was an advocate for reducing the deficit and opposed to piling on debt to our children and grandchildren. But his recent vote to support the

tax cuts for millionaires and billionaires will increase our deficit by another $300 billion. His political actions don’t match his words. On Thursday, Dec. 2, he voted against extending the tax cuts for households earning less than $250,000. Where is the justice in these votes? Of course, less affluent households cannot contribute as much toward the next re-election campaign.

Conservative columnist Victor Davis Hanson said in a recent column, “Every dollar lost in revenue will require a commensurate dollar cut in federal spending.” Can you guess what segment of our population will feel the cuts?

In these hard times for millions of Americans, where is the shared sacrifice? A man they called Jesus the Carpenter is famously quoted as saying, “To whom much has been given, much will be required.”

Dorothy Adelia Weaver Oct. 7, 1917 - Jan. 14, 2011 Born October 7, 1917, in Canyon City, OR. Parents, Thomas Guy Durham and Rena America Durham.

Graduated from Crane High School at the age of 16. Attended Oregon State College (now Oregon State University) for one year.

She and her family moved to Bend in 1947.

After her daughters were in junior and senior high school, she began working as a part time bookkeeper for Had's Saw Shop and later for Ideal Gas as a full time bookkeeper.

She was an active member of the Altar Guild at Trinity Episcopal Church for over 40 years. Until well into her 80s, she spent her Tuesday evenings at the church's Family Kitchen serving food.

When she wasn't with her family or involved with the church, she spent most of her time on the golf course at the Bend Golf and Country Club.

She enjoyed the game and all of the special people there who became her close friends.

When her health kept her

from golfing, she still kept her social membership, playing bridge every Wednesday at the club.

Dorothy is survived by her two daughters, Jan Fratt (husband, Doug) of Riverside CA. and Candace Williamson (husband, Tucker) of Redmond, OR; niece, Gail Cooke (husband, Jim) of Tualatin, OR; three grandchildren, Scott Williamson (wife, Sheryl) of Parker, CO, Camilla Ruark (husband, Bob) of Dallas OR. and Sara Wylie (husband, Tag) of Durham, NC; seven great-grandchildren, Bailey, Brandy, and Alexis Williamson; Michaela, Lindsay and Robert Ruark; and Shannon Wylie.

A celebration of Dorothy's life will be held on Friday, January 28, 2011, at the Trinity Episcopal Church, 469 NW Wall St., Bend, OR, at 2:00 pm.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Altar Guild of Trinity Episcopal Church, in Bend.

Her father called her "Marguerite bon espoir," my bright little hope. Margie was beautiful not only in appearance, but also in spirit. Born to Henry and Rosario Delmare in Los Angeles, California, Margie she was Blomquist strong and courageous even to her last breath.

Margie married James Caron in 1950. They had four children, Saundra, Louise (wife of Robert Wolfe), Lawrence, and Janine (wife of Stephen Toomey). The family lived in southern California until they eventually all migrated to Bend, Oregon beginning in 1984.

Margie worked from home as a self-taught bookkeeper while she raised her family.

Her clients were quite unique, and she loved her work.

Margie lost James in 1994 and entered her new life as a single woman with unwavering faith that the Lord would meet her needs.

She became actively involved with First Baptist Church of Bend, and pursued her love of flowers and the out of doors.

She was fascinated by all creatures, great and small.

She loved to study the Bible, maps, and to travel.

Margie shared her love for her Savior and Lord, Jesus Christ, in a quiet and attractive way. She was also deeply blessed to know her children all shared her faith in the Lord.

The Lord surprised Margie in 2003 with the precious gift of Robert Blomquist. The two met in a group Bible study, and married in short order.

Bob captured her heart, and she cherished him all the rest of her days. Margie was quick to earn the affection of Bob's children, Marty (wife of Mike Main), Robert (husband of Judi), and Marie Pedigo. Bob and Margie enjoyed travelling together, spending time with their children, creating cherished memories.

Margie is survived by her husband, Bob, her precious sister, Martha Burns, her children, her grandchildren, Matthew Reynolds, Rebecca Costello, Sarah Paulus, Dylan and Sean Toomey, and eight great-grandchildren.

A graveside service will be held at Deschutes Memorial Gardens at 2:00 p.m. on Friday, January 21st, and a memorial service will be held at First Baptist Church of Bend on Saturday, January 22nd at 11:00 a.m.

Margie generously supported the needy and missionaries in the field. In lieu of flowers, please make donations to the First Baptist Church of Bend Deacon's Fund, or an agency that serves the needy, or a missionary of your choice.

Writer Sheed dies at 80 in N.Y. New York Times News Service Wilfrid Sheed, the wittily satirical man of letters who drew upon his Anglo-American background to write bittersweet essays, criticism, memoirs and fiction about cultural life on both sides of the Atlantic, died Wednesday in Great Barrington, Mass. He was 80.

The cause was a urinary tract infection, the family said.

Sheed had recently moved from a nursing home in Southampton on Long Island to one in Great Barrington so he could be closer to his wife, Miriam Ungerer Sheed, who had moved there to live near a daughter.

The couple had lived for many years on the east end of Long Island.

Born to the founders of the eminent Roman Catholic publishing house Sheed & Ward, Sheed was from an early age thrown in with writers, intellectuals and serious thinkers about religion, among them

the English writer G.K. Chesterton, who was his godfather.

He mined his resources industriously, making for himself a much-admired writing career.

“I guess I sort of backed into writing,” Sheed told Publishers Weekly. “I have taken off from family experiences sometimes as if they were daydreams.”

He wrote, in one form or other, for a half-century, without losing much steam. His last book, published in 2007, was a history of U.S. popular music titled “The House That George Built: With a Little Help From Irving, Cole and a Crew of About Fifty.” It was a critically acclaimed best-seller, one that Sheed had labored over for many years despite debilitating illnesses, dictating parts of it.

He is survived by his second wife, Miriam Sheed; his three children from his first marriage, Francis Sheed, Elizabeth Carol Sheed and Marion Tango Nelson.

Blue Jays’ 1st manager dies at 85 The Associated Press BALL GROUND — Roy Hartsfield, the Toronto Blue Jays’ manager for their first three seasons, has died. He was 85.

Bernhardt Funeral Home in Ellijay confirmed that Hartsfield died Saturday at his daughter’s home in Ball

Krastev Continued from C1 While living in Colorado in 1996, Krastev applied for and received a Social Security card under the name Jason Robert Evers, an Ohio boy who was born in 1979 and murdered three years later.

Krastev assumed the identity of Evers and was issued a passport. An FBI check of death records against passport records led investigators to Krastev, and he was arrested in April 2010.

Krastev has never publicly revealed the details of why and how he assumed Evers’ identity, but in a letter sent to the family of his former fiancee, he wrote that he was facing a “life or death situation.”

In the sentencing memorandum issued by the U.S. Attorney’s Office on Wednesday, Assistant United States Attorney Stacie Beckerman explains how the government arrived at its recommended sentence.

Prosecutors and Krastev’s attorney had agreed to give Krastev probation on the charge of passport fraud, and the mandatory minimum sentence for aggravated identity theft of 24 months, the memo-

Ground.

Hartsfield also played in the majors from 1950-52 for the Boston Braves. A second baseman, he finished with a .273 career batting average and 13 homers.

He then coached and managed, mostly in the minors, including 19 years in the Los

randum states. However, federal code prohibits giving a defendant a probationary sentence if the defendant is simultaneously sentenced to imprisonment. As a result, prosecutors are recommending a sentence of one day in prison for the passport fraud charge.

“Although a 24-month plus one-day sentence is a belowguidelines sentence for these offenses, the government believes that the agreed-upon sentence reflects the seriousness of the offenses, promotes respect for the law, provides just punishment for the offenses, affords adequate deterrence to defendant and others, and protects the pub-

Angeles Dodgers organization.

He was named the Blue Jays’ manager when they joined the American League in 1977.

Hartsfield was 166-318 in his three years managing Toronto.

A memorial service will be held Saturday at Ellijay First United Methodist Church at 2 p.m.

lic from further crimes of this defendant,” the memorandum concludes.

Krastev could face deportation to Bulgaria upon his release from federal custody, a process unrelated to the criminal charges against him.

The sentencing memorandum states that members of the Evers family are expected to be present at the sentencing hearing later this month, and that Krastev has agreed to meet with them to answer their questions and apologize.

Linda Lou Rasmussen Emken Wood March 13, 1946 - January 15, 2011

Records Continued from C1 “I know the public believes in open transparency,” he said.

No lawmakers have signed on to the bills, mainly because the exemptions are still being worked on, Kroger said.

Kroger sponsored public meetings across the state last year to listen to the public, government officials and the media on how to improve transparency.

Randall, with Open Oregon, said overall, he’s pleased with the proposed changes.

He said he would like to see the 10 business day deadline shortened.

But “I’m content with it,” he said.

Linda was an open, powerful, and courageous woman. Surrounded by her loved ones, Linda Lou Wood passed away peacefully on January 15, 2011, she was 64.

Linda Lou Rasmussen Emken Wood was born on March 13, 1946, in Blair, Nebraska, to John and Maxine Rasmussen. She spent most of her childhood on a dairy farm outside of St. Paul, OR, where she attended High School at St. Paul and Newberg. She was a cheerleader and president of the FHA. Linda went to college at St. Olaf College in Northfield, Minnesota. On a trip to a family wedding in Nebraska, Linda met her 1st husband Richard Emken. They traveled back to Oregon where they raised their four children in the Monmouth area. After losing her first husband in 1978, Linda moved to Salem to start the next chapter of her life.

In the spring of 1980, Linda met her soul mate, David Wood. They fell in love and were married on November 20th of the same year. Linda and Dave eventually moved to the Bend area where they started Central Oregon Custom Homes and Legend’s Publick House, while Dave continued to work for The Oregon Education Association. Linda and Dave enjoyed working closely with WINGS seminars, Champ Cup Open Wheel Racing and spending time at their 2nd home in Land O’Lakes, Florida. They loved to travel and experience new adventures together.

After battling cancer for a few years, Linda and Dave moved to the Canby area so they could be closer to family and friends.

Linda loved to bake!! She was known for her cookies and other treats. Linda loved to read and play cards. She was a tremendous friend to many. Her smile could light up a room. She loved to spend time with her family, especially her two grandchildren, who were very near and dear to her heart.

Linda is survived by her husband, David Wood of Canby; sister, Karen Meuchel of Brooks; brothers, Marlin Rasmussen of St. Paul, Norman Rasmussen of Salem; Children, James Emken of West Linn, Jeff Emken of Bend, Janine Emken of Tualatin, Wendy Soethe of Seattle and Juli Walton of Bend; Grandchildren, Jillian Emken and Taigen Soethe; and her dog, Sadie.

She was preceded in death by her 4th son, Jonathan Emken Wood.

We invite you to join us at the Celebration of Linda on January 22nd, 2011 at 1:00 pm at Zion Lutheran Church, 301 South River Street, Newberg, OR 97321.

In lieu of flowers, Linda would appreciate donations being made to the WINGS seminars scholarship fund in her name at www.wings-seminar.com.

Nets owner tells team to drop Anthony deal

GolfWorld to sponsor Pac Am

NEWARK, N.J. — The megadeal to bring Carmelo Anthony to the New Jersey Nets is dead.

Nets owner Mikhail Prokhorov told the team to end trade talks with the Denver Nuggets on Nets owner WednesMikhail day, saying Prokhorov he was unhappy with how it played out in public, that it took too long, got too expensive and cost the team games.

The Russian billionaire also canceled a planned meeting with Anthony today and said there was no chance — that’s a big nyet — that the trade would be resurrected.

“There comes a time when the price is simply too expensive,” Prokhorov said in a news conference before the Nets’ game against Utah. “I have instructed our team to walk away from the deal.”

Previously, New Jersey had offered to ship six players and at least two first-round draft picks to Denver in a three-team deal that would have sent Anthony to the Nets along with former Pistons teammates Chauncey Billups and Richard Hamilton.

Central Oregon’s popular amateur tournament lands new title sponsor

By Zack Hall The Bulletin

After 13 years with the Northwest Dodge Dealers, the Pacific Amateur Golf Classic has a new title sponsor.

The Central Oregon Visitors Association, which organizes the annual tournament played at courses throughout the region, announced Wednesday that GolfWorld magazine has signed on as title sponsor for the 2011 tournament.

The sponsorship deal with GolfWorld is a four-year agreement with an annual renewal, meaning that either COVA or GolfWorld can choose to discontinue the contract after any year, COVA president Alana Audette said.

HUNTING & FISHING

C YCLING Armstrong stays out of trouble at Tour Down Under ADELAIDE, Australia — Lance Armstrong was content once again to avoid all the trouble in the Tour Down Under. He hasn’t been nearly as fortunate when he gets off his bike.

The seven-time Tour de France winner missed three crashes in the final few miles to finish in the main pack during the second stage of the race, won by Britain’s Ben Swift on Wednesday. Armstrong is 60th overall in what he already has said will be his final international race.

Armstrong also brushed aside questions before the stage about a report in Sports Illustrated that challenges past statements that he cut ties to an Italian doctor and training consultant who has long been accused of helping cyclists cheat. Armstrong would only say that he had perused the report and that “I have nothing to worry about on any level.”

Aussie Robbie McEwen, who was second in the stage and is Armstrong’s Radio Shack teammate, leads the overall standings ahead of Matthew Goss and Swift, who share his accumulated time of 6 hours, 44 minutes, 42 seconds.

Registration is set for Bend Little Leagues Bulletin staff report It’s almost that time of year for hundreds of local boys and girls: baseball and softball season.

Accordingly, Bend’s Little League organizations are gearing up by holding in-person registration events today through Saturday at Dick’s Sporting Goods, located in the Cascade Village Shopping Center on the city’s north side.

Children ages 5 to 14 are eligible to play in the two leagues — Bend Little League North and Bend South Little League.

Both leagues offer baseball and softball for older players, and T-ball for younger players.

The boundary line between the two organizations, according to the Bend Little League North website, is Northeast Greenwood Avenue/U.S. Highway 20 on the east side, south along the Deschutes River from downtown, and then west along Galveston Avenue/Skyliners Road.

Bend Little League North will accept registration from 4 to 8 p.m. today and on Friday, and from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday. Cost is $85. Bend South Little League will accept registration from 4 to 9:30 p.m. today and on Friday, and from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday.

Cost is $65 to $95, depending on age group. Registrants for either organization must also supply a birth certificate and proof of residence.

Both leagues will also accept late registration after the in-person events for a slightly increased fee. Details can be found on the league websites (see “If you go”).

Close to home Want to fish but don’t want to travel? Angling opportunities abound just a short cast away

By Mark Morical The Bulletin

The cold mid-January wind ripped through the canyon, playing havoc with my fly line as I cast a nymph into the narrow ribbon of water flowing by.

Beyond the cliff wall, Bend’s afternoon rush hour was just beginning.

But below, the only rush was the sound of the Deschutes River as it meandered through the north end of town.

Sure, the Crooked, Metolius and Fall rivers are the most popular places to fish during the winter.

But what about staying close to Bend?

Sometimes we forget that the Deschutes River runs right through town — with big brown trout lurking somewhere in the depths.

“You get a lot of people who want to fish in town because it’s close, but it’s not as focused on as some of the surrounding waters, for sure,” says David Kalinowski of Fly & Field Outfitters in Bend. “It definitely does get overlooked. It’s a little challenging. You’re going to work a little harder to find fish.”

Fish are not as numerous in the stretch

of the Deschutes that runs through Bend.

But rainbow trout and sizable brown trout can be hooked by patient anglers.

Kalinowski says he has hooked brown trout in the 5- to 6-pound range in Bend.

“The beauty of it is there are some really nice fish in that range,” he says.

From Meadow Camp, just southwest of Bend, downstream to Sawyer Park, on the north end of town, fishing can be quite good for anglers who know where to look.

And while recent rains have made for massive flows on the Crooked River (1,800 cubic feet per second earlier this week) and Metolius River (3,500 cfs earlier this week) that have hampered fishing, the Deschutes through Bend has maintained flows more manageable for anglers — about 700 cfs.

S B Baseball • Twins re-sign Pavano: Carl Pavano is headed back to the Minnesota Twins with a new $16.5 million, two-year contract. The team announced the deal on Wednesday night. Pavano went 17-11 with a 3.75 ERA and seven complete games last season to help the Twins win the AL Central title. The right-hander pitched 221 innings, the second-highest total in his injury plagued career. Pavano came to Minnesota in a 2009 trade with Cleveland and has enjoyed a career resurgence after three tough seasons with the New York Yankees.

• Yankees’ GM says Soriano wasn’t his idea: In a move mirroring those of his famous father, Yankees owner Hal Steinbrenner overruled general manager Brian Cashman in giving a $35 million, three-year contract to Rafael Soriano. Distancing himself from the decision after a news conference Wednesday to introduce Mariano Rivera’s new setup man, Cashman said he didn’t think it was worth playing closer money for a pitcher the team plans to use in the eighth inning. And the general manager didn’t want to lose his first-round pick in June’s amateur draft, which will now go to Tampa Bay as compensation. “I think it’s certainly a sign that at times if Hal feels that he wants to go in a different direction, that could happen,” Cashman said. “I think that’s certainly the case. This is their team. Does that happen often? Will it happen a lot? I just think it depends on the circumstances.”

Football • Texas, ESPN reach $300M deal: The University of Texas, which already has one of the wealthiest athletic programs in the country, is lining up for even more money.

Texas and ESPN on Wednesday announced a 20-year, $300 million deal for a 24-hour television network that will broadcast Longhorn sports, including at least one football game and eight basketball games per season, and other sports and academic content. The deal includes Texas’ licensing and marketing partner IMG College, with more than 80 percent of revenue set to go to the university. It will not replace existing television deals between the Big 12 and both ESPN-ABC and Fox. • Obama says he would go to Super Bowl if Bears play: President Barack Obama is promising he’ll be at the Super Bowl if his beloved hometown Chicago Bears make it in. It’s not clear, though, that his off-the-cuff comment represented a firm commitment — or just a lighthearted moment in a busy day. The Bears would win a Super Bowl slot if they beat the Green Bay Packers Sunday. Obama was asked about his plans Wednesday by reporters being ushered out of his Oval Office meeting with the president of China. Obama said laughingly: “Oh, if the Bears are in the Super Bowl, we’re going.”

•NFL, union meet in New York: NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell and players’ union executive director DeMaurice Smith are meeting in New York. Union spokesman George Atallah said Wednesday’s session is “an effort to advance the bargaining,” rather than a formal negotiating session toward a new labor contract. NFL spokesman Greg Aiello declined to comment. Goodell said Tuesday at an owners’ meeting that “there’s not enough communication” between the sides. The league and union acknowledged last week that they have not held a largegroup bargaining session since November. The collective bargaining agreement expires in early March, and the union expects owners to lock out the players.

Golf • Woods to open season in San Diego: Tiger Woods will be starting his season in San Diego. Woods officially entered the Farmers Insurance Open on Wednesday, which has become the traditional start of his season since 2006.

He has won the last five times he played Torrey Pines, including the 2008 U.S. Open in a playoff over Rocco Mediate. He has not played the PGA Tour stop at Torrey Pines the last two years, missing in 2009 while recovering from knee surgery and last year while dealing with personal problems related to his extramarital affairs.

PREP ROUNDUP

Nadal breezes into third Panther wrestlers win twice round of Australian Open Bulletin staff report

The Associated Press MELBOURNE, Australia — Rafael Nadal extended his Grand Slam winning streak to 23 matches today, beating American qualifier Ryan Sweeting 6-2, 6-1, 6-1 in the second round of the Australian Open.

The top-ranked Nadal is aiming to be the first man since Rod Laver in 1969 to hold all four Grand Slam titles at the same time. He’s conceded only four games en route to the third round, sealing his win over Sweeting with the last of a blizzard of forehand winners.

After his quarterfinal exit at the last Australian Open, Nadal rebounded to win the French Open, Wimbledon and U.S. Open titles.

The only hint of anything other than complete domination for Nadal came in the third set, when Sweeting broke serve in the fifth game and got within a point of bringing it back to 4-2 in a game that went to deuce five times. But Nadal went on to the break and held serve to close it out.

“A few mistakes with the backhand, that’s all. My serve improved

a lot since the first day. I think I was serving very well today,” Nadal said, noting the one blot on his serve was when he looked into the sun. “Movement good; backhand good; having a few more mistakes than usual. I have to play longer with the backhand.

Maybe have to play a little bit more aggressive, more inside the court.”

Kim Clijsters posted another impressive win on the women’s side, beating Carla Suarez Navarro 6-1, 6-3. U.S. Open champion Clijsters opened with a 6-0, 6-0 win over former No. 1-ranked Dinara Safina.

Also advancing from the bottom half of the draw were No. 10 Shahar Peer, No. 12 Agnieszka Radwanska and No. 13 Nadia Petrova. Seventh-seeded Jelena Jankovic lost 7-6 (3), 6-3 to China’s Peng Shuai, continuing an unimpressive streak of seven losses in eight matches. It was former world No. 1 Jankovic’s worst result at a major since the 2009 U.S. Open.

In a late Wednesday match, No. 2 seed Roger Federer faced a challenge from Gilles Simon but eventually prevailed in five sets.

SPRINGFIELD — Redmond won a pair of dual wrestling meets at Thurston High on Wednesday night, first holding on to beat the host Colts (4031) before an easy victory over South Eugene (59-22).

The Panthers’ lighter wrestlers led Redmond to its first win of the night over Thurston. Brandon Short (103 pounds), Ryan Haney (119), Chance Lindquist (125) and Levi Brinkley (130) all won to give the Panthers an early lead.

Thurston posted victories in five of the six heaviest classifications to stage a late rally, but thanks to a swift victory by Redmond’s Travis Knapp at 189 pounds over Wyatt Waggoner, the Panthers held on for the win.

In the second match of the night Redmond rolled past the Axemen, winning 10 of 13 matches.

The Panthers are off until next Wednesday when they host Bend High.

In other prep events Wednesday:

SWIMMING Panthers’ boys, girls beat Cougs REDMOND — The Panthers swept a dual meet against Mountain View, with the boys team winning by 35 points (102-67) and the girls prevailing by 28 (93-65).

Junior Tom Gilbert was the only double winner for the Redmond boys, placing first in the 200-meter freestyle (2 minutes and 18.36 seconds) and the 100 freestyle (1:00.86). Mountain View freshman Brandon Deckard won the 200 individual medley (2:13.96) and the 100 backstroke (1:10.7) for the Cougars. A pair of Redmond freshmen, Phoebe Weedman and Rachel Haney, each won two events to lead the Panthers in the girls meet. Weedman finished first in the 200 freestyle (2:18.36) and the 100 breaststroke (1:26.44), and Haney claimed wins in the 200 individual medley (2:41.04) and the 100 backstroke (1:10.05).

Redmond is off until Friday, Jan. 28 ,when the Panthers swim at Thurston High in Springfield. The Cougars are at the Madras Invitational on Saturday.

magazines have been the tournament’s publishing partners since the Pac Am’s inception in 1997.

“GolfWorld has been seeking an expanded role for some time,” Audette said Wednesday in confirming the Pac Am’s new title sponsor. “We were very pleased to have them step into the title role when the opportunity presented itself. As the leading national weekly golf publication, GolfWorld speaks to our core golf base and provides national exposure for the tournament and Central Oregon.”

Portland Trail Blazers forward LaMarcus Aldridge, center, tries to hold on to the ball as he drives between Sacramento Kings’ Tyreke Evans, left, and Jason Thompson during the first quarter of Wednesday night’s game in Sacramento, Calif.

Blazers win in OT The Associated Press SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Even in a game where he admittedly struggled, LaMarcus Aldridge was a difference maker for the Portland Trail Blazers.

Aldridge scored 23 points with a strong finish and Nicolas Batum had season-high 24 to lead the Blazers to a 94-90 overtime victory against the Sacramento Kings on Wednesday night.

Aldridge was coming off a career-high 37 points in a Tuesday victory against Minnesota. But the skillful forward did little in the first three quarters, when he scored just eight points. Yet Aldridge delivered when the Blazers needed it most. He scored 10 points in the fourth quarter and five more in the overtime when Portland outscored the struggling Kings 9-5 to secure a rare road victory.

“I had to stick with it. I was not in a good rhythm — I was kind of tired,” said Aldridge, who made 10 of 24 shots and added nine rebounds. “I went out and tried to make plays in the fourth.”

It was the third straight win for the Blazers and eighth in a row against the Kings. And Portland did it without Marcus Camby, who injured his left knee Tuesday. Camby, who is fourth in the NBA in rebounding (11.3) and 10th in blocked shots (1.87) will have surgery today and there is no timetable for his return.

“Collectively, we’ve got to do those things that our guys missing were doing for us,” Blazers coach Nate McMillan said. “Tonight it was mentally challenging in an overtime game on the road. In overtime we made plays, something we talked about doing all season long.

You need to make plays down the stretch.”

Andre Miller had 20 points, six rebounds and six assists, and Rudy Fernandez scored 13 off the bench for Portland.

Beno Udrih scored 20 for the Kings.

NEW YORK — Marian Gaborik had four goals and an assist three days after being benched and Henrik Lundqvist made 22 saves for his seventh shutout of the season and 31st overall in the New York Rangers’ 7-0 victory over the Toronto Maple Leafs on Wednesday night.

Just a few hours after the Rangers said scoring leader Brandon Dubinsky would be out at least three weeks because of a stress fracture in his left leg, Gaborik picked up the offensive slack.

Gaborik broke out of an eight-game goal drought with two in the first period and two more in the second for his third hat trick of the season.

GOLF: PGA TOUR

Lamely shoots 63, leads Bob Hope Classic The Associated Press LA QUINTA, Calif. — Even after Derek Lamely strung together the longest streak of birdies and eagles on the PGA Tour in nearly four years, he realized it’s still very early in the Bob Hope Classic.

Lamely shot a 9-under 63 in the first round Wednesday, playing a six-hole stretch in 7 under to take a one-stroke lead over J.J. Henry and Jhonattan Vegas.

Although Lamely finished fiercely at the Palmer Private course, the second-year PGA Tour player knows firstround scores mean little in the tour’s only five-day event over four fairly generous courses.

“This is going to be definitely not a sprint,” Lamely said after finishing his round under picturesque conditions in the Palm Springs area.

“The golf courses are perfect.

The weather is just so good.

You’ve just got to go out and stay aggressive every hole.

Hopefully you can get hot and make a bunch of putts, and I actually got that going today.”

Lamely had five birdies and an eagle in his six-hole run for the best stretch on the PGA Tour since Brandt Snedeker strung together an 8under, seven-hole roll in early 2007 at Torrey Pines.

Boo Weekley led a pack of six at 65. The group includes Matt McQuillan, who only made it into the Hope field after Donnie Hammond withdrew Wednesday morning.

Nicklaus course at Pronghorn Club northeast of Bend.

The 2011 GolfWorld Pacific Amateur Golf Classic is scheduled to be held Aug. 29 through Sept. 2. Ten Central Oregon courses are expected to host Pac Am events.

FISHING

I

t’s no secret that California has too many pigs. But they don’t come easy.

California’s No. 1 big-game animal, a critter descended from the offspring of European boars and imported domestic hogs gone feral, is a cagey quarry. Hunt them too hard, they go nocturnal.

There were seven of us and a Jack Russell terrier. Crystal Burrill, owner of Rockyridge Hunting Club, led the way with Tucker at heel. I was behind Crystal. In my left hand, I held a CZ 550 Medium, in 7mm Magnum.

Single file, with the wind in our face, we shadowed the base of a hill and followed a trail up into the oaks.

From a mile away, Derek and Spence had spotted these half-dozen hogs. Now we were close.

There. A movement in the trees, just over the top of a hummock.

A few inches shorter than me, Crystal hadn’t seen it. I touched her shoulder to alert her and we eased up a little farther.

It was a coyote, on the trail of the same pigs we were after. Thirty yards away. A few steps closer and he saw us. He flashed up through the trees then skidded to a stop 70 yards out. When he looked back, the front bead, the rear sight and the coyote were all lined up.

It’s a terrible thing to miss an easy shot when you have an audience, but that’s what I did.

When the bullet kicked up dirt behind him, the coyote turned into a streak of gray, stretched out from 0 to 40 mph, at top speed in half a second. The second bullet stopped him.

A week before, John Burk, of Pine Country Outfitters in Bend, had handed me the rifle and said he wanted me to try it out on our hunt west of Red Bluff, Calif. With a fully adjustable rear sight and a hooded

It was just the thing for a hunt for a creature, the wild boar, with its own roots in the Old Country.

Evening on the first day, our group split into two and glassed from the tops of long ridges into meadows green with winter grass. Matthew Bernard, owner and marketing manager for the new Work Sharp knife sharpening system, was on his first wild boar hunt. Derek Wise spotted a sounder of hogs down on a flat and he and Matthew went after them.

The light was low when Bernard made a good shot and dropped a 175-pound boar.

The next morning while on a stalk for hogs, we surprised the coyote. After all the com-

motion, the Jack Russell was not about to give up on the wild pig chase. He caught a whiff of swine from across the creek, so we waded in to go up the hill through a patch of poison oak.

Crystal and Tucker went up one way while I took another trail. Near the crest, a boar crossed in front of me on the run, big and black against the sky. I sprinted for the top and heard Eli Pyke behind me with the camera whisper “no” as I hit the top. He wanted to catch the action, but the boars weren’t waiting around. For a brief moment I had a broadside look as one swung back. Then they were going away. Straight away.

I fired and missed and chambered another round. One-hundred twenty yards now. Missed again. We followed their trail to the fence line and turned back.

Back along the creek, we explored a homestead decaying beneath the outstretched arms of a huge walnut tree.

A few yards away, a Model T pickup rested, rusted, with weeds that sprouted through the floorboards.

We hunted out a long ridge

and when the sun was high, headed back to the ranch.

Sam Pyke spotted them.

“Pigs, pigs, PIGS!” They were on the slope above us and we, all seven, and the dog again, headed after them. Heart pounding, legs burning, I stopped at a tree trunk to steady the rifle. Two small black ones, too small. I let them walk and then another pig stepped out from behind a pine tree and stood broadside.

Seventy yards. One 160-grain Nosler Partition connected me to my supply of winter pork.

It took a day and a half to bag a wild boar, a European rifle in hand, stoked with bullets from Oregon, hunting beneath a blue California sky, an animal descended from ambulatory pork brought from the Continent.

After my hog was on the ground, the swine seemed to climb out of the woodwork.

Funny how that works.

HUNTING REPORT

Hunters should expect wet, muddy conditions Here is the weekly hunting report for selected areas in and around Central Oregon, provided by wildlife biologists for the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife:

CENTRAL ZONE OPEN: Cougar, coyote, chukar, quail, waterfowl (see regulations) PRINEVILLE/OCHOCO WILDLIFE DISTRICT GENERAL: Recent above normal temperatures and rain have melted much of the lower and mid-elevation snow

accumulations. Conditions are wet and muddy, with access difficult.

Heavy packed snow is prevalent at high elevations. It is suggested hunters keep an eye on weather forecasts, and contact the Ochoco National Forest and Prineville BLM for the latest information on access and camping (BLM 541-416-6700, Ochoco Nat. For. 541-416-6500).

COUGAR: Are present throughout the Maury, Ochoco and Grizzly units, but are more likely at lower elevations where deer and antelope are concentrated on winter ranges. The Maury and Ochoco units are recommended because of their greater amounts of public lands and better accessibility.

Remember cougars must be checked in at an ODFW office within 10 days after harvest. Please consult the synopsis for all required parts and be sure to call first to make an appointment.

COYOTES: Offer an exciting challenge and will be closely associated with deer and antelope on winter ranges.

Both the Maury and Ochoco have sizeable areas of public lands that provide hunting opportunities. Areas to consider include BLM lands around the S. Fork Crooked River, Camp Creek and Hampton Butte in the Maury; and mixed USFS/BLM lands along the S. Fork John Day River and Paulina Valley in the

Ochoco unit.

UPLAND GAME BIRD: Opportunities are available for valley and mountain quail and chukar. A cold, wet spring resulted in poor early hatches for these species, but the late hatches appear strong. Hunters should check the synopsis for mountain quail as only selected counties (including Crook) are open for hunting.

WATERFOWL: Opportunities are limited due to the minimal habitat present on public lands. The better hunting opportunities are associated with private agricultural lands, where access is difficult and hunters must have landowner permission. Zone 2 duck season ends Jan. 23.

FISHING REPORT

High flows affect Crooked, Deschutes, Hood rivers Here is the weekly fishing report for selected areas in and around Central Oregon, provided by fisheries biologists for the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife:

CENTRAL ZONE CROOKED RIVER BELOW BOWMAN DAM: Rain and snow events have resulted in high flows recently; please exercise caution when wading. Anglers are reminded that angling methods are restricted to artificial flies and lures from Oct. 31, 2010, to May 28, 2011.

E C

DESCHUTES RIVER (Mouth to the Northern Boundary of the Warm Springs Reservation): The river reached flood stage during recent rains, making fishing an adventure. Fishing will improve as flows recede.

FALL RIVER: Anglers are encouraged to note the special regulations in the 2010 Sport Fishing Regulations; the angling season downstream from the Fall River falls ended on Sept. 30.

HOOD RIVER: The river reached flood stage during recent rains, making fishing an adventure. Fishing will improve as flows recede. Anglers are reporting decent early success on bright winter

steelhead in the lower river. Steelhead anglers should expect fish numbers to increase throughout the month and February, with a peak in March and April.

OCHOCO CREEK UPSTREAM TO OCHOCO DAM: Anglers should be aware that beginning in 2010 new fishing regulations went into effect that permanently restrict fishing to artificial flies and lures only; two trout per day and 8-inch minimum length.

PRINEVILLE RESERVOIR: Anglers continue to report good fishing and have reported catching larger trout than in recent years. Anglers should consult

the 2011 Sport Fishing Regulations for maximum length requirements and bag limits for both largemouth and smallmouth bass.

PRINEVILLE YOUTH FISHING POND: Young anglers are catching rainbow trout and an occasional largemouth bass.

SHEVLIN YOUTH FISHING POND: The pond is open to children 17 years old and younger with a bag limit of two fish.

TAYLOR LAKE: Taylor Lake should offer anglers a good opportunity to catch trout this winter. The lake has been stocked with legal and trophy trout.

Access is currently good, with no ice or snow.

THE BEND CHAPTER OF THE OREGON HUNTERS ASSOCIATION: Meets the

Home Continued from D1 Kalinowski recommends walking just upstream from the Bill Healy Memorial Bridge in southwest Bend and looking for pools and riffles, where trout might be swimming near structures in the river.

“They’re ambush-type predators,” Kalinowski says of brown trout. “Strip a streamer by a rock that it’s hiding behind.”

But don’t stay in one spot for too long.

“Covering water is a very important thing to do, since there’s not as many fish per mile (in the Deschutes through Bend),” Kalinowski adds. “Four or five casts, and then go find another rock. If you’re willing to hike farther, you can cover more water.”

The Colorado Avenue bridge is another spot near which anglers like to try in Bend. Sometimes the fish will congregate in the water just below the spillway located under the bridge.

“You don’t have a ton of water to play with,” Kalinowski says of the Colorado bridge area.

“It’s time to move on after 25 to 30 casts. You can nymph fish or throw streamers.”

He also suggests trying baitfish patterns and woolly buggers to attract brown trout.

Sawyer Park in north Bend offers anglers smaller, pockettype waters where rainbow trout like to lurk. Smaller dry flies can sometimes work to get rainbows to rise to the surface.

“The water is more oxygenated, so there’s more rainbows,” Kalinowski says. “They like that water better than the slow water upstream. You can throw

small dry flies around the boulders in slower water and (the fish would) be pretty receptive.

But it’s a little tougher to walk around there.”

Another angling option close to Bend is Tumalo Creek in Shevlin Park, where anglers could hook small rainbow and brook trout. Higher fish population densities can be found, however, farther from Bend toward Tumalo Falls.

For Prineville residents, the Crooked River is THE place for winter fishing. But when flows are so high as to make fishing nearly impossible, Ochoco Creek is an option that runs right through Prineville.

The creek is home to a thriving population of native redband trout, some of which measure up to 20 inches in length, according to fisheries biologists for the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife. Anglers should be aware that Ochoco Creek is restricted to artificial flies and lures only.

On the Deschutes in Bend, bait is allowed from the North Canal Dam upstream to the Colorado Avenue bridge.

I used a prince nymph to reel in two small rainbows as the wind continued to howl on the Deschutes just north of Bend.

However cold and blustery, it sure beat sitting in rush-hour traffic.

Many area sno-parks ice-covered

By Markian Hawryluk The Bulletin

If you’re heading out to play in the snow this weekend, you might want to bring your ice skates.

After the heavy rains drenched the high trails last weekend, snowpack has receded 10-20 inches in places, said Chris Sabo, trails specialist for the Deschutes National Forest. The rainfall left many areas covered in slush or even standing water.

“That has now refrozen and we’ve got some pretty crusty and icy conditions on the snowpack,” Sabo said.

Although higher elevations got about five inches of new snow Wednesday morning, Sabo expects that snow to melt quickly and add to the icy layer covering the snowpack. Sabo said that likely means “treacherous” conditions this weekend.

“Expect icy conditions on a lot of the trails for the time being,” he said. “Unfortunately the forecast is not showing much in the way of new snow coming in.”

In addition to the ice, many of the sno-parks and trails have large holes where snowshoers and others who braved the rain last week broke through the snowpack. Those holes have now been frozen in place and represent a serious risk of injury until more snow can fill them in.

TRAIL UPDATE

The Sisters Tie Trail runs for 6.6 miles, connecting to Sisters to the Indian Ford Campground along U.S. Highway 20 west of town.

This funny-looking stump sits alongside the Sisters Tie Trail.

Tiny perspective ... from wandering eyes

By Ben Salmon The Bulletin

A

few weeks ago in this space, I told you all about how I headed east to Horse Ridge to escape the snow, only to find … more snow.

Since then, warmer weather and rain have done away with much of the white stuff in Central Oregon, making it possible to take an easy, family-friendly hike lined by pine trees, not junipers.

On Saturday, my wife and I packed up our 9-month-old daughter and headed toward Sisters, intent on spending a damp, gray, but not freezing afternoon doing some preventive maintenance against cabin fever.

Our destination: The Sisters Tie Trail, which begins at the north end of Pine Street in the northwest corner of Sisters.

Why the Tie Trail? Because it’s easily accessible, for one. It’s also a straightforward, relatively sure-footed walk for someone carrying a kid who seems to get a whole lot heavier

every day.

Perhaps most importantly, it’s minutes from The Stitchin’ Post, a quilt shop in Sisters that a certain someone in our family likes to patronize on a regular basis. (Hint: I don’t sew, and neither does the baby.)

With all that in mind, we cruised over to Sisters, crawled through town, turned at the Sno Cap Drive In and parked in the small area at the trailhead, which is located just a few feet north of where Pine Street turns from pavement into a bumpy dirt road.

The Tie Trail runs north along Pine Street for a few miles before heading west for another few miles toward U.S. Highway 20 west of town. About halfway along, there’s a half-mile spur trail that connects the whole thing to Indian Ford Road, in case that’s an easier access point for you. Posts along the path bear the logos of the Sisters Trails Alliance and the U.S. Forest Service’s Road to Trails program.

Lesson backfires on student who pulls ill-conceived prank Dear Abby: I live in a dorm at a large university where a former friend, “Glen,” also lives. We are no longer on speaking terms because of an incident that happened last year.

One day during pre-finals week, I left my room briefly to get something from a friend’s room down the hall. I left my door unlocked because I’d be back soon. When I returned a few minutes later, my laptop, my cell phone and several books full of class notes were missing. I was distraught almost to the point of a breakdown.

Later that night, Glen knocked on my door and revealed that he had hidden the items in his room to “teach me a lesson” about not locking my door. I was speechless that a “friend” could do such a thing to me.

I notified the police and officials at the university. Glen was arrested for theft and charged with a misdemeanor. The university terminated his scholarship, and he was sentenced to community service.

Glen is now blaming me for what happened. He claims what he did wasn’t really “stealing” and that I ruined his life. He’s harassing me at every opportunity and spreading misinformation to my friends.

I believe I acted justly to what was plainly a case of theft. Am I wrong? How should I act in the case of Glen’s current behavior?

— Victim In Texas Dear Victim: Your former friend appears to be emotionally disturbed. He has no one to blame but himself for what has happened to him. If you haven’t already done so, warn him to stop the harassment — and if he doesn’t, report it to the authorities. And don’t worry about the misinformation he is trying to spread among your friends.

If they are truly your friends, they’ll believe you when you tell them they’re being lied to.

DEAR ABBY Dear Abby: My husband and I have been arguing about his leaving the lights on throughout our house. He’s convinced that it adds little to our electric bill, but it bothers me that every single light is left burning. I realize there is a cost difference between incandescent and fluorescent lighting, but leaving all the lights on seems unnecessary and wasteful to me. Could you please “shed some light” on our argument?

— Lit Up In Johnson City, Tenn.

Dear Lit Up: According to the Renewable Energy Policy Project (REPP) in Washington, D.C., leaving a 100-watt incandescent bulb on for 12 hours a day for one month will add $40 per year to your electric bill. Multiply that by the number of bulbs in your home and it can add up quickly.

Fluorescent bulbs use fewer watts than incandescent bulbs, but turning them on ages the filaments — so if they’ll be turned on again within a minute or two, leave them on. (This is not a recommendation to leave fluorescent bulbs burning constantly, just a suggestion that if they won’t be needed after a few minutes, to turn them off.)

LED bulbs are more expensive to buy, but they last longer, use less wattage and emit brighter light. However, when the illumination is no longer needed, they, too, should be extinguished.

P.S. Since your husband has money to burn, why not invest in motion sensors so he’ll have light wherever he goes without inflating your energy bills?

Elusive Diddy says yes to persistent host

By Dave Itzkoff New York Times News Service

NEW YORK — Sometimes it seems as if good things can occur in Chris Gethard’s life only if they are balanced out by other, inauspicious events.

On Friday afternoon, Gethard, 30, a boyish comedian with a gentle disposition, was playing basketball when another player collided with him, breaking his glasses, cutting his nose and sending him scrambling to LensCrafters for some emergency repair work.

On the other hand, Gethard ended his day by performing in a comedy show with Diddy, the illustrious if elusive hiphop mogul, after a campaign that lasted more than a year.

At about 11:30 p.m. Gethard could be found in his mended glasses, pacing in his peagreen dressing room. He had been told Diddy would be arriving soon, but then he had broken promises to Gethard in the past, and he was trying to keep his expectations in check.

“He just lives on a different planet from me,” said Gethard, who was drinking from a 16-ounce can of Red Bull and repeatedly applying ChapStick to his lips. “I have no idea why he’s doing this.”

Then, through a back door, Diddy arrived, as unassumingly as one could enter a room with a hulking bodyguard (as well as an assistant and his teenage son, Justin).

Dressed casually in a thermal shirt and jeans, Diddy (whose real name is Sean Combs) introduced himself to Gethard and the other comedians he’d soon be performing with.

They chatted about the night’s routine, and Gethard warned Diddy not to take offense at anything in the show.

“That’s good,” Diddy replied, “because I’ll talk about everything.”

Kirsten Luce / New York Times News Service

Sean “Diddy” Combs, center, joins Chris Gethard, second from right, in his show at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater in New York on Jan. 14. After 13 months of persistent tweets and video appeals on YouTube to try to persuade Diddy to take part in the “The Chris Gethard Show,” the hip-hop mogul finally gave in.

And then it was showtime.

“I’ve had 13 months to think about this,” Gethard said. “Let’s see if we can get it right.”

These have been some up-anddown days for Gethard, a performer who is well known within the insular world of improvisational comedy but hardly a household name. In April, he was seemingly plucked from out of nowhere — or maybe his hometown, West Orange, N.J. — to replace Jon Heder, the “Napoleon Dynamite” star, in the Comedy Central series “Big Lake” when Heder abruptly dropped out of the project. Though “Big Lake” came from the production company of Will Ferrell and Adam McKay, comic kingmakers who are fans of Gethard, the show seemed to fizzle after its August debut, and Comedy Central has yet to order more episodes.

Months earlier, at the end of 2009, Gethard took to the Internet in an aggressive effort to persuade Diddy to take part in “The Chris Gethard Show,” his midnight showcase at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater. (This was after Gethard was rebuffed

by Al Roker, the chummy “Today” show personality.)

After Gethard fired off tweets to Diddy and posted video appeals on YouTube, Diddy responded on his own Twitter account that he would appear in Gethard’s show some time in 2010. (“He sounds like a pretty cool dude!” Diddy wrote.)

But one Winter Olympics, one World Cup, a few Lindsay Lohan court appearances and one year later Diddy had still not made good on his vow. In a September interview on “Late Night With Jimmy Fallon,” Gethard an-

nounced that if Diddy attended a special paintball-theme show at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater “he can shoot unfunny comedians.” But Diddy still did not pull the trigger on the invitation.

The turning point came in December, when Diddy appeared on “Saturday Night Live” with his group Diddy-Dirty Money, and Gethard used a connection at “SNL” to get into the show and confront him there.

“I think it was just his persistence,” Diddy said backstage on Friday night, explaining why he finally gave in to Gethard. “I was, like, ‘Who’s this guy?’ But I felt his energy and his spirit.

I’m supposed to be at the Golden Globes right now, but I’ll just go there a little bit later.”

Beginning at about 12:20 a.m., the performance Diddy participated in was equal parts talk show, improv show and Friars Club roast, and if he did not quite bring the same explosive energy he displayed last year in “Get Him to the Greek,” he at least delivered the laconic comedy he brought to his 2001 film debut in “Made.”

By about 1:30 a.m. Diddy and his entourage had already left the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater, but Gethard and his colleagues could still be found backstage, gathering their belongings, surging with adrenaline and wondering if they’d get any sleep.

Gethard said it hardly mattered because he had to be in New Jersey at 9 a.m. to take a 90minute class on using the bathroom in the RV he was renting.

“That’s my life,” he said.

In ‘Fairly Legal,’ USA makes mediation sexy

By David Wiegand San Francisco Chronicle

The USA network has carved out a niche in the world of basic cable for its steadfast devotion to quirkiness. More often than not, from basic show concepts to sly writing to unexpected characterizations, USA takes chances.

Sometimes they work — other times, not so much.

Instead of a typical cop show, why not focus on a pair of phony psychic detectives in Santa Barbara? If TV is already overpopulated with medical dramas, how about a doctor setting up a practice in the Hamptons and bringing his screwy younger brother along to sort of run the medical business?

Tonight, instead of unveiling yet another law-and-order drama, USA offers up “Fairly Legal,” a series focused on a legal mediator, Kate Reed (Sarah Shahi), who works at her late father’s law partnership, run by his young and controlling widow, Lauren Reed (Virginia Williams).

One challenge for Michael Sardo, creator of “Fairly Legal,” is that mediation isn’t always as sexy as, say, murder trials. In place of dead bodies and whodunits, “Fairly Legal” gives us family squabbles over barbecue recipes and custody fights over a little girl between her widowed stepfather and his late wife’s Croatian mother.

The opening episode focuses on Kate’s attempts to mediate a dispute between a tough aging businessman (Ken Howard) and his son, who was involved in a traffic altercation that resulted in gun charges being filed against two young African American

‘Fairly Legal’ When: 10 tonight Where: USA

men. The son has his own reasons for resisting Kate’s attempts to reopen the case, and you should be able to figure out why about halfway through the show.

But “Fairly Legal” is more about character than story, beginning with Kate, who lives on a boat, hooks up regularly with her soon-to-be-ex-husband, Justin Patrick (Michael Trucco), and assigns music from “The Wizard of Oz” as ring tones for all her regular callers (the “Wicked Witch of the West” music is reserved for Lauren).

Although Kate’s father left the partnership to both his wife and daughter, Lauren is the managing partner and that gives her somewhat of an authoritative edge, but, for the most part, Kate is her own boss. Her sort-of ex, by the way, conveniently happens to be an assistant district attorney.

The show is set in San Francisco, and, to its credit, USA actually filmed in the city for the opening episode, although it makes the predictable Vancouver substitution after that.

“Fairly Legal” is adequately entertaining, thanks in large part to Shahi, an engaging actress who looks like Anne Hathaway. The most interesting relationship isn’t the one between Kate and Justin, but, rather, between Kate and Lauren, whose friction may be caused in part by similarities in their personalities.

DA: Review of Gibson criminal case ongoing LOS ANGELES — Los Angeles’ district attorney says a review of domestic violence allegations against Mel Gibson is ongoing after a meeting between prosecutors and the actor’s attorneys.

The statement by District Attorney Steve Cooley didn’t indicate when prosecutors will decide whether to pursue charges against Gibson. Gibson’s exgirlfriend, Oksana Grigorieva, claims the actor-director struck her during a fight in January 2010.

Cooley says Gibson’s attorneys presented information about the

Trails Continued from E1 Many of the snowmobile trails at lower elevations will not be groomed until more snow falls.

While groomers will be out at upper elevations, it may take multiple passes to break through the icy crust, delaying grooming efforts.

The forecast for rain on Friday and colder temperatures at night over the weekend could make conditions even worse.

“I’d say it’s going to be definitely a week of caution,” Sabo said.

Streep visits UK Parliament for film LONDON — Meryl Streep has visited London’s House of Commons before her next role as Margaret Thatcher in the Hollywood movie “The Iron Lady.”

bumpy, it should be telling them, it’s time to head back into town and do something easier, and not risk broken joints and bones and injuries.”

Looking forward, the icy crust also sets up conditions ripe for avalanches in the backcountry, if new snow doesn’t bond with the frozen layer.

“Depending on how much snow falls, avalanche conditions could increase substantially,” Sabo said.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Thursday, Jan. 20, 2011: This year you evolve in a new direction. Often you let others dominate the social scene. That type of interaction simply is not that important to you, though you could feel otherwise next year. Your friendships remain key, and you will do whatever you need to do in order to maintain them. If single, it is likely because of a friendship that a love relationship develops.

You could have quite the case of spring fever. If you are attached, the two of you gain through focusing on a long-term goal. LEO likes people as much as you do!

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) HHHHH You are juggling others’ very different responses to the same event or act. Friends tend to gather on one side, while a loved one seems quite contrary. Through understanding the feelings behind the thoughts, you find an answer.

Tonight: Kick up your heels.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH Your perspective seems to conflict with an authority figure’s request. Do not mix your personal life with your professional life.

An observant friend or loved one gives much-needed support.

Tonight: Your favorite place.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH Seek out more opinions and different perspectives to an issue. Be ready to discover that you might not have all the facts. Work

with someone directly, opening up a new avenue of communication.

A partner, loved one or special friend proves to be most supportive.

Tonight: Hang out with your pals.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH Curb a tendency to be possessive. This trait reveals your insecurity. Work on building a stronger sense of well-being.

Perhaps a purchase of a new item or a membership at a gym could help.

You decide. Tonight: Your treat.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHHH You understand others’ opposition on a project, yet you are still smiling. Handle their attitude by not taking any statements personally. This course of action reveals an innate selfconfidence. Tonight: A loved one might act like a bee with honey.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HH Play it low-key. A personal matter or an issue regarding property will be more easily resolved than a snafu at work. Focus where success lies. Your instincts guide you financially. Understand that not only you, but also many people feel as if there is never enough money.

Tonight: Get some extra R and R. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHHH Others prove to be instrumental. You might smile at hearing key information. Ask yourself if you are vested in a certain outcome. Use your innate charm, and others will be more inclined to agree. Tonight: Just don’t isolate yourself.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Be willing to take a stand or assume responsibility. How

you manage to bring a project or event to conclusion is your call. The end results prove to be most worthwhile. Express an innate talent through manifesting and letting others view this gift.

Tonight: Count on a late night.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHHH Keep reaching out for more information. You gain a better grasp on a hot issue.

Be careful making a financial decision. Though you might be very positive about someone’s offer or a special expense, you don’t have the whole story. Tonight: Let your imagination choose.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Someone makes a request that feels difficult to fulfill.

What you do with your decision reflects your self-concept. Be aware that others are picking up on the same issue. Avoid taking comments personally. Tonight: Use care with a new person.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH Others continue to test your boundaries. You do need to get into a flurry, but do notice if anything is unusually difficult. You might want to review that whole situation with eye to change. Stay calm, cool and collected. Tonight: Out and about.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHH All work and no play can be a problem, as you discover early on. Why push yourself so hard?

Remember, life is for living. Join in a conversation over lunch. Share more of yourself. Others see you in a positive vein. You can count on that. Tonight: Get errands done. © 2010 by King Features Syndicate

January to March is prime hunting time for singles

By Sheba R. Wheeler The Denver Post

January is the month of renewal, establishing helpful habits and shaking up the norm.

Many people redefine themselves by hitting the gym, organizing their mental and physical clutter or eating more fruits and veggies. Dating experts say now through March is also prime hunting season for singles who have resolved to find a relationship.

“After you’ve spent the holidays alone, New Year’s is the time many change their way of thinking decide to get out there more and find love,” said Cheri Collins, program director of Rocky Mountain Singles.

Coupled with bad weather and a looming Valentine’s Day holiday, organizations like Rocky Mountain Singles, online dating sites, meet-up groups and dating services.

Sheryl Williams with Denver’s Ignite Matchmaking Service urged one of her self-proclaimed “homebody” clients to clear two nights a week to attend social and networking events outside of her close circle of friends to broaden her chances of meeting a new love interest.

“That’s where people get stuck — they hang out with the same group of people all the time,” said Williams.

“I get phone calls all the time in January from people who say they are going to find a relationship this year,” Williams said.

“But that’s like saying you are going to find a job. There’s lots of things that play into whether or not that happens. You’ve got to do things to put you in a position to find a relationship.”

the dark-brown earth, and we held our daughter close to a bush so she could reach out and feel its needles.

More than once, I thought the endless expanse of pine trees before us had a symmetrical quality, as if we were looking into an arboreal hall of mirrors.

It was slightly disorienting, and

my wife checked to make sure we’d be able to get back to the car. I noted that if we turned and looked in the other direction, we could still see buildings in the distance.

In other words, the quiet and still of the air made it seem as if we were more “out there” than we really were.

At one point my wife noticed a charred tree several feet away from a soggy old fire pit; watching her track the blackened ground between the two and try to piece together exactly what happened was like watching investigators process a scene in an episode of “CSI.” Farther down the way, we stumbled into an obviously popular after-dark party spot, where the uncluttered forest floor gave way to a small sea of beer cans, energy drink bottles, cigarette packs and other garbage.

We told our little one that littering is bad, and explained to her the concept of leaving no trace, but she was too busy cooing in the face of light drizzle to absorb what we were saying, I think.

We also spent a lot of time jok-

Doctors’ income disparity vexing Specialists can earn twice as much as primary care physicians, who often struggle repaying student loan debts

By Markian Hawryluk The Bulletin

Dr. J.B. Wharton, a new pediatrician at Bend Memorial Clinic, always knew she would choose a career in primary care medicine.

Growing up, she followed her dad, a family practice doctor, on his rounds.

“I grew up with that model of taking care of the whole family and being involved through all the stages of life,” she said. “I didn’t particularly know I was going to do pediatrics, I just fell love with it in med school.”

That decision likely cost Wharton hundreds of thousands of dollars in potential career earnings.

Primary care physicians, such as family practice doctors or pediatricians, on average earn half the salary of specialists such as radiologists or dermatologists. The potential income disparity is so great that medical students often feel both economic and academic pressure to avoid a primary care career path.

“I had one professor in med school that sat down with me at one point and said, ‘You have great grades. You have great scores. You could get into ophthalmology. Why would you pick pediatrics?’” Wharton recalled.

With the costs of attending medical school increasing, new doctors can begin their medical practices with student loan

A recent analysis suggests that despite six-figure salaries, primary care doctors could struggle to make ends meet in their first years of out of residency. Many experts are concerned the disparity in income may be discouraging medical students from entering the primary care field and could be exacerbating an already worrisome access problem.

Surgical checklists improve communication, but some say St. Charles weakened its version

By Betsy Q. Cliff The Bulletin

S

ometimes it’s the simplest things that make the biggest difference.

Such is the case with surgical safety checklists, which most Oregon hospitals implemented in operating rooms last year and St. Charles Health M E D System began using this month.

The checklists, which really are just a piece of paper with tasks, have been shown to greatly reduce complications, injuries and deaths in operating rooms around the world.

But implementing these checklists in many hospitals, including here in Central Oregon, has been challenging.

Some provisions on the template checklist developed by the World Health Organization don’t seem to be relevant to all hospitals. The checklist adds extra steps to an already complicated process. And, paramount to those other concerns, the very surgeons it is designed to help often do not want it.

I

St. Charles was later in adopting the checklist than most Oregon hospitals, according to a report released late last year.

To create a checklist palatable to physicians, the Central Oregon health system modified it from its original version. And, though modification is encourC I N E aged by the WHO and other quality organizations, at least one expert says that the modifications made by St. Charles may diminish the checklist’s usefulness.

The modifications on the St. Charles list are “suboptimal,” said Dr. Dante Conley, a research fellow at the Harvard School of Public Health who is working with Dr. Atul Gawande, a surgeon and author of “The Checklist Manifesto.” Conley is studying how the implementation of checklists impacts their efficacy.

The St. Charles checklist involves the surgeons to a lesser extent than does the WHO checklist or modifications of that list undertaken by many other hospitals.

See Checklist / F4

“Physicians in general, if you tell them they have to do something, they are not going to want to do it on principle. And surgeons are the most bullheaded of the lot.”

Next week Can you work out when sick? We tell you when to take it easy and when some exercise might be good.

INMOTION When on your bicycle, know the rules of the road Bicycle commuters have a right to the road along with cars, but need to remember the ground rules. Here’s a handful of Oregon’s road laws as they pertain to bicycles.

BICYCLISTS: • Can occupy an entire lane and ride up to two abreast as long as they’re going the same speed as traffic.

Bikers riding slower must ride as far to the right as possible, except when passing, turning left or for safety needs.

• Must yield to pedestrians and give audible warning when passing pedestrians.

• Must yield to vehicles approaching on the right in unmarked intersections.

• Must use bike lanes except when necessary to safely turn, pass or avoid a hazard.

• Are bound to same speed limits as cars except no faster than an “ordinary walk” in crosswalks, driveways

and curb cuts when cars are approaching.

• Must show a white light on the front and a red reflector on the rear whenever visibility is limited.

• Are required to use hand signals 100 feet before turning and stopping, unless circumstances require both hands on the handlebars to control the bike.

• Must wear a helmet if under age 16.

MOTORISTS: • Must yield to bicyclists in bike lanes, in crosswalks and on sidewalks.

• When passing at faster than 35 mph, must leave enough room to miss the bicyclist if he or she fell over into the car’s lane; at lower speeds driver must allow “safe distance” when passing.

Mike Dupras, 44, of Bend, rides a stationary bicycle wearing Vibram FiveFingers at the Athletic Club of Bend. “You’re strengthening all these different muscle groups that support the rest of the body,” said Dupras.

EXERCISE ON THE WATER

‘Barefoot’ shoes are gaining traction

Want a change of pace for your workout this year? Try kayaking

Fans say minimalist rubber soles provide stability, balance in exercise

Richard Hamlin recalls his initial reaction when his wife suggested they take a kayaking trip while in the San Juan Islands: “I said, ‘No, it looks like work.’”

He was half right. Kayaking can be work — as in a great workout — but it can also be a getaway from the rigors of the day. “From the very first time, I loved it,” adds Hamlin, who is now an instructor at the Marina Aquatic Center in Marina del Rey. Most people kayak in one of two styles of boats. A siton-top is open, stable and fairly flat, allowing the legs to be exposed. The touring, or sit-inside, kayak allows paddlers to nestle themselves inside a cockpit with legs outstretched.

This is a sport that mostly, but not exclusively, targets the upper body. “You really use your back and shoulder muscles,” Hamlin says. “And the abs provide leverage as you rotate your torso.” When swells push the boat, the hips and the oblique muscles get involved: “I tell people that it’s a little like doing the salsa because you lean the boat into the wave, and use your obliques to pull the boat toward the paddle.”

Feet are up against pegs, and thighs get close to the hull; all are used to guide the boat. “As you move your lower body, the boat moves with you,” Hamlin says.

The reward for all that hard work is being on open water and perhaps spotting a dolphin, pelican or other aquatic creature.

The workout can be relaxing too. Travis Festa, education outreach coordinator for the American Canoe Assn.

They’re unflattering shoes — reminiscent of gorilla feet — but they’re all the rage in some fitness and nature circles.

Vibram FiveFingers have flexible rubber soles on the bottom and thin breathable fabric on top.

Each toe is individually wrapped, like a glove. The sole is just a couple of millimeters thick, enough to protect tender skin from hard surfaces. Many models weigh less than six ounces per shoe, about half the weight of the typical running shoe. There’s no arch support, cushioning or padding.

They’re also called “barefoot” running shoes, despite the obvious contradiction.

“Though not truly barefoot, they are the closest thing I can imagine to barefoot while allowing me to do things I could never do with unprotected feet,” according to BirthdayShoes.com, a blog run by FiveFinger fans.

Whether used for running, walking or working, the minimalist shoes are hyped for strengthening foot and lower-leg muscles, reducing knee pain, improving agility, balance, posture and alignment.

Bend’s Mike Dupras is one of those born-again barefooters.

About a year ago, after major knee surgery, Dupras had to rebuild his strength and relearn to walk, he said. It seemed like the perfect time to try Vibram FiveFingers. He started on a treadmill for about five minutes, and gradually built up his time. Eventually he hit the trails. He was back to running in half the time doctors had predicted, and now he’s jogging up to five miles in them, unless it’s snowy or icy. He says it’s changed his running form, because he can’t slam down on his now un-padded heels.

He wears them for just about everything unless he’s outside in the snow or working at Awbrey Glen

golf course, where he’s a food and beverage manager. Wearing them has made him feel stronger than ever, said the 44-year-old.

“You’re strengthening all these different muscle groups that support the rest of the body,” explained Dupras.

FiveFingers are an offshoot product from the Italian Vibram company, which first invented a rugged rubber sole for mountaineering boots in 1935 and now manufactures more than 34 million soles annually for more than 1,000 footwear brands, according to www.vibramfivefingers.com.

FiveFingers, originally developed as an alternative to bare feet for sailing and climbing, gained cult status among runners in the last few years. Time Magazine named them one of the best inventions of 2007.

They’re found at many sporting good stores and cost between $80 and $125. The durability of FiveFingers, according to Teague Hatfield, the owner of Footzone running apparel store, hasn’t been an issue.

“I’m not sure if that’s because people don’t wear them as much as regular shoes or because they can’t heel strike as much, thus taking away the highest wear area on a shoe,” said Hatfield.

“Side by side, I’d expect a running shoe to be more durable, but for 95 percent of Vibram wearers, (FiveFingers) are going to complement rather than replace their running shoes.”

Vibram FiveFingers has stormed the barefoot shoe market, but Inov-8 (www.inov-8.com) recently developed a five-toed alternative to Vibram FiveFingers.

Emily Brown, 26, took an unconventional approach to breaking herself into the minimalist shoe. The Bend resident strapped them on for the first time last summer and climbed Broken Top — all the way up.

I was already used to being barefoot,” she said. “My feet were really comfortable after that hike, more than normal.”

Brown’s full-immersion transition is not the recommended method, and Brown knows that.

After all, she sells them in REI’s footwear department, which is where she first started seeing and hearing about the odd shoes.

The company website suggests using them occasionally at first, slowly building lower leg and foot strength, to minimize discomfort.

Depending on an individual’s foot type and the activities the FiveFingers are used for, it could take weeks, months or even a year to adjust completely.

Brown believes her feet were stronger than the average foot when she started wearing them on that initial hike. She wore her FiveFingers on hikes all summer.

“It made me feel like I had better balance and stability on those mountain trails.”

“They’re kind of crazy, cool. I like being barefoot, so it was kind of a neat concept,” she said.

Long-time runner Frank Cobarrubia, 46, a podiatrist and an owner of Northwest Footcare in Bend, said he sees no problems with the FiveFingers as long as they’re used for reasonable distances (not marathons) or for running on dirt trails (not pavement).

He doesn’t wear FiveFingers, but he certainly knows about them. He said they are “the rage” right now. “As many things, through our history, things come and go,” said Cobarrubia. “I’m not saying these won’t be used in 10 years, but sales will be less than what they are now or were last summer.”

Next week New drugs may be better alternatives to the anticoagulant Warfarin.

Checklist Continued from F1 That lack of participation, Conley said, could decrease the chance the checklist will help patients. “The hope is that each discipline will want to participate,” she said. “We just really don’t know how much you take away when you don’t have enthusiastic compliance.”

To be sure, each surgeon and each surgical team in any operating room, including at St. Charles, is different. Surgeons will vary in how enthusiastically they participate in the process here and elsewhere. Some will embrace the checklist and others will do their best to ignore it.

But evidence is mounting that those who do not fully use the checklist may put their patients in peril.

Accumulating evidence There are many physicians who don’t believe, after years of medical education and training, that something as simple as a checklist could make them better.

“Physicians in general, if you tell them they have to do something, they are not going to want to do it on principle. And surgeons are the most bullheaded of the lot,” said Dr. Brett Sheppard, a surgeon at Oregon Health & Science University and a member of the board of directors of the Oregon Patient Safety Commission.

St. Charles Health System’s hospitals in Bend, Redmond and Prineville were no exception.

“Whenever you’re talking about 100-plus personalities, there’s going to be different views,” said Dr. Darren Kowalski, a surgeon and former chief of surgery at the Bend hospital.

When you are mandating surgeons to go through a more onerous process than they had been used to, he said, “understandably there’s going to be some pushback.”

But those who push back may find it increasingly difficult to make their case. Study after study shows that checklists improve surgical outcomes.

A major study published in the New England Journal of Medicine last fall found that in hospitals in which checklists were introduced, the complication rate went from 27 per 100 patients to 17 per 100 patients. The number of patients who died during or because of surgery was reduced by half.

To surgeons who still don’t believe in the checklists, “I think the evidence has accrued to the point where they need to get over it,” said Dr. John Birkmeyer, a prominent surgeon at the University of Michigan who wrote an accompanying editorial in the journal. “There’s virtually no other safety effort that’s demonstrated these kind of results.”

Birkmeyer said he wasn’t a believer at first, even going so far as to publicly question the validity of checklists. He said he just didn’t think that something so simple could matter.

But Birkmeyer said he has come to believe that the individual items on the list do not matter so much as the sense of teamwork that using a checklist engenders. “In my opinion, the effectiveness comes not as a result of things that are on the checklist, but because of the collateral effect of making teams go through that process.”

Courtesy St. Charles Health System

St. Charles Health System now uses this checklist in each of its operating rooms with the goal of improving surgical safety. The health system modified this checklist from a version provided by the World Health Organization. That checklist can be found at www.who.int/patient safety/safesurgery/en.

starts. In its place, the nurse asks how long the case will be and whether any X-ray imaging equipment is needed.

The modifications were made after a discussion with physicians, said Pam Steinke, chief nursing executive for St. Charles. The physicians, she said, did not want to be distracted from thinking about what they needed to do during the surgery.

“They felt it was safer for them to be prompted, instead of leading.”

Kowalski echoed the same sentiment. “When I’m thinking about all the moves that I have to go through, to take my attention away from that … I think that is deleterious to the patient.”

But others said that it was important for surgeons to take an active role.

“The surgeon as leader and participant is important,” said Dr. Patchen Dellinger, a professor of medicine at the University of Washington and researcher in one of the original studies on surgical safety checklists.

The procedure confirmation done by the nurse on St. Charles’ list, said Conley, would be better done by the surgeon. “They are the only one who actually knows what they are going to be doing to that person.”

Flattening the hierarchy Traditionally, operating rooms have been very hierarchical places.

“It used to be that you never, ever dared challenge a surgeon on anything,” said Ruth Ott, an operating room nurse at St. Charles Bend.

For example, if the surgeon ordered an antibiotic that you knew could cause an allergic reaction in a patient, she said, “you really had to muster up the courage to challenge” the surgeon.

Times have changed, Ott said, and nurses typically feel more empowered in their roles.

She and others said that surgeons, nurses and others involved in surgery at the St. Charles hospital usually work well together.

“Our OR is really a cohesive group.”

Still, even in the most comfortable of communication situations, steps can get missed and voices

can get lost in the intense environment of the operating room.

The checklist helps ensure that there’s a standard level of communication, said Dr. Michael Caravelli, an orthopedic surgeon in Bend and member of the group charged with implementing the surgical safety checklist at St. Charles. “If you don’t have standardization, then every team’s going to be different based on team members that day,” he said. “By having a standard framework, you level the playing field.”

In the WHO checklist, communication is fostered by giving everyone in the operating room a role and by explicitly inviting them to speak. The WHO checklist gives different roles to different members of the operating team:

Nurses check for sterility and the surgeon reviews the critical steps within the surgery and anticipated length of the case.

“The idea is to give people an invitation to speak in service of the patient,” said Conley.

Hospitals have modified the checklist in a number of ways. But many have retained the explicit invitation to all members to speak — or have kept responsibility for the checklist divided among different members of the surgical team.

In the St. Charles version of the checklist, one nurse is responsible for the entire checklist. He or she asks various members of the team questions about the surgery.

St. Charles has also removed from its checklist the briefing done by the surgeon before the surgery

Surgical outcomes The real test of the surgical safety checklist at St. Charles will be if it makes surgery there better.

In objective measures of surgical quality published by the federal government, St. Charles Bend and Redmond rank in the middle of the pack in most measures and

below average in others.

In five of nine surgical quality measures, St. Charles Bend ranks below the national average. In three measures it ranks the same and in one, blood sugar control for heart patients, it ranks above the national average.

St. Charles Redmond ranks below average in seven of eight measures reported. It ranks ahead of the pack in one, the percentage of patients shaved using safe methods.

Both hospitals rank significantly below the national average in percentage of patients who were given proper treatment to prevent blood clots.

St. Charles is aware of this deficiency, said Steinke, and has formed a task force on it. She said part of the problem was documenting when the correct procedures were done and part was ordering the correct procedures in the first place.

The task force, Steinke wrote in an e-mail, recently created guidelines for surgeons outlining which medications they should use to prevent blood clots in various surgeries.

Steinke said she expected the implementation of the checklist to improve some of the hospitals’ surgical safety measures, particularly those addressed in the checklist, such as the use of antibiotics and beta-blockers, a drug given to heart patients.

But, if it is in fact embraced at the hospitals, the checklist may impact more than just the items specifically delineated.

“What’s most important is the safety culture and enhancing the degree of teamwork,” said Birkmeyer.

Conley, too, said many of the improvements they see in researching the topic come with the change in “operating room culture” that comes with implementing the checklist.

It’s too early to tell if the checklist at St. Charles will change the safety culture there. Surgeons, Kowalski said, are still getting comfortable with the new protocols.

For himself, he said, he was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to incorporate it into his work. “Once you start practicing, you can adapt well enough that everyone can make it work.”

Kowalski said he was particularly happy about a change at the end of surgery in which the operating team discusses and documents what could have been done better.

“I’ve said all along, this is a great question that we hadn’t done before,” he said. That, he said, can open the lines of communication. “Hopefully, you’ll see more of that.”

As boomers turn 65, Medicare set to swell

By Ana Veciana-Suarez McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Baby boomers, the generation that once vowed to never trust anyone over 30, begin turning 65 this year. This is a historic moment, ushering a demographic tsunami through the threshold of old age.

Though this birthday no longer guarantees full retirement benefits, the big six-five still means one thing: Medicare eligibility.

For the next 18 years, boomers will be enrolling in the government’s health insurance system, no doubt changing the way companies deal with a growing elderly population.

Consider this: Of the 78 million boomers born between 1946 and 1964, more than 2.77 million will turn 65 in 2011, according to U.S. Census projections. That’s 7,596 people aging into Medicare every day in 2011.

The number of newly Medicare-eligible seniors increases every year after that, peaking in 2025 when about 4.267 million people — or 11,691 a day — will celebrate that milestone birthday.

In comparison, a decade ago, about 4,880 people a day graduated into Medicare.

Boomers will enter Medicare in numbers that will test the financial resources of a program signed into law in 1965 by President Lyndon Johnson.

But as experts haggle over the big picture, it’s important for boomers to bone up on the details of Medicare, which tends to be more complicated than the usual insurance fare offered by an employer.

What’s more, signing up too late can cost thousands of dollars in extra premiums and out-ofpocket expenses over a lifetime.

“The biggest pitfall I’ve seen people run into is that they procrastinate,” said Jeff Johnson, interim state director for AARP

of Florida. “They put it off and don’t realize they’re going to pay a penalty.”

Johnson and other advocates suggest boomers write this on their calendars in big red letters: The enrollment period for firsttime Medicare enrollees spans seven months — the three months before, the month of, and the three months after your 65th birthday.

In this case, sooner is better.

If you sign up during the three months before your birthday, Medicare coverage will start at the beginning of the month you turn 65. Happy birthday!

If you sign up during your birthday month, coverage will begin at the start of the following month. But if you wait until the final three months of the initial enrollment period, your coverage will take that much longer, sometimes several months. Coverage will not start the month following your enrollment.

People tend to postpone a decision because they’re confused by the many different health plans they can choose under Medicare, but there are resources to help.

Medicare itself provides online and phone help, as do nonprofit organizations and various insurance companies.

Medicare is not a one-sizefits-all program, and health care advocates advise that before enrolling — or re-enrolling — in Medicare, people should do their homework: Make a list of prescription drugs. Find out what Medicare plans your preferred doctors and hospitals take. Determine how much you can afford to pay for health care, including premiums, deductibles and outof-pocket expenses.

Finally, try to figure out what your probable health care needs will be for the following year.

This should simplify what can otherwise be a daunting experience.

Balancing budgets The analysis from researchers at Dartmouth Medical School quantified average salaries and expenses faced by doctors, factoring in such costs as mortgage payments, retirement savings and college savings for children. Many of those costs were higher because doctors spend a minimum of 11 years in training and must take on higher rates of savings to make up for lost time.

But the single biggest expense faced by those new physicians was their student loan payments, averaging $2,261 per month if amortized over 10 years. According the American Association of Medical Colleges, the average medical school senior in 2010 graduated with $157,944 in school loan debt. Many will defer payment on those loans for their three or more years of residency, during which interest begins to accrue. As a result, the average physician will begin medical practice with about $200,000 in student loan debt.

For a new primary care physician earning about $130,000 a year, that debt payment would account for 28 percent of his or her take-home pay.

By contrast, the same debt load would account for 23 percent of the take home pay of a psychiatrist, and only 12 percent for a radiologist, despite having a longer residency and a higher average debt load.

The researchers suggested primary care physicians would lose $800 a month unless they reduced their contributions to retirement or college savings plans. Another recent study found that primary care physicians do not begin to have a positive net worth until an average age of 33.

“It’s unfortunate because we are in desperate need of primary care docs,” Wharton said.

“It’s definitely a burden on primary care docs and it weighs heavily on our decision.”

Choosing specialties Studies have shown that higher-salary specialties, such as orthopedic surgery or radiology, tend to have a higher percentage of residency positions filled than lower paying specialties. A recent analysis published in the journal Family Medicine found that among students from middle income families, there was a strong correlation between the amount of medical debt at graduation and the mean salaries of the specialties chosen by those students.

It’s why medical students talk about the “R.O.A.D. to happiness,” an acronym created from four highly soughtafter specialties: radiology, ophthalmology, anesthesiology and dermatology.

“You don’t work long hours, you get paid really well and there’s no (emergency room) call,” said Dr. Andrew Jans-

sen, a primary care doctor in John Day. “Everyone enters medical school fairly naive and fairly idealistic,” he said. “But by the end of your third year, you’ve met a lot of residents who are working like crazy, you’re burned out and your loans are stacking up, and you have to make a decision on your residency.”

When medical students know they can add on a year or two of residency to become a specialist and double their income, it’s hard to pass up that opportunity.

“I think human nature being what it is, we all get to the point where we say, ‘The system owes me something. I put in all this time. The more I can get the better,’” he said. “It’s fairly insidious, but it’s there, and I think that doctors are as vulnerable to it as anybody else, despite our high ideals.”

Janssen acknowledges that increasing debt loads may indeed be discouraging medical students from applying for primary care residency slots if they can help it. Just as the Ivy League schools are open only to the top students in high schools, the more lucrative specialties have become more competitive and only the top med school students can hope to get into those residencies. That may further dilute the quality of primary care.

“The bottom line is that family medicine and a few other (specialties) are less competitive and so people who aren’t at the top of their class are more likely to go into the less competitive fields,” he said. “I’m a family doc and that doesn’t speak well about my field, but it’s probably true.”

Making it work Many doctors like Janssen and Wharton who do want to pursue a primary care field try to do

what they can to limit accruing debt and find additional revenue streams to help pay down their debt after graduation. Janssen chose to practice in John Day, in part because the region qualified for National Health Service Corp. loan repayment. That helped to pay off his $90,000 to $100,000 in medical school loans in only three years. He also supplements his primary care income by covering the emergency room at night.

Dr. Matthew Rode completed his residency in 2005, and set up a family practice in Bend. But he travels to Burns to work as an emergency room doctor twice a month to help make ends meet.

“You can certainly look past the debt, which is essentially what I did, and say, ‘I’m going to earn a good wage, this is the specialty I want to practice, and so I’m willing to be at a financial disadvantage compared to some of my colleagues in other specialties,’” he said. “I’ve found other ways to make it work. I practice emergency medicine to support my primary care practice. That’s the reality.”

The trend lines, however, suggest the situation may worsen.

Each year, the medical schools train fewer and fewer primary care doctors, while medical school costs continue to increase.

According to the American Association of Medical Colleges, private medical school tuition and fees increased by 50 percent from 1984 to 2004, while public medical school tuition and fees increased by 133 percent. Oregon Health & Science University, Oregon’s only medical school, now has the highest tuition for in-state students in the country, at $40,684 per year. Factoring in room and board, freshman medical students in 2011 could be facing debt loans of $250,000 or more by the time they graduate.

“I’d like to think that most physicians are fairly altruistic, following their desires as far as what they’d like to do, rather than how much money they’d like to make,” Rode said. “But when you’re looking down the barrel of being $200,000 in debt, that can certainly be a motivating factor for choosing one of the higher-paying specialties.”

Winter Allergies GivingYou the Blues?

See a Board Certified Allergist/Immunologist.

Sniffles and sneezes are common during the winter months, yet they’re not always due to colds and flu. Although people with pollen allergies may find a reprieve when the weather cools, those with other allergy triggers — such as mold, dust mites and pet dander — can be just as miserable in winter.

Symptoms Of Winter Allergies?

Coughing, dark circles under eyes, itchy, watery eyes and nose, runny nose, sneezing.

Healthy Tips:

• Your allergist can help you identify things in your home, workplace or school that may be making your asthma or allergies worse.

• Keep your home clean and dry to help make it “allergen-free.”

• Focus on sites where allergens accumulate-bedding, carpet and upholstered furniture.

• Weekly vacuuming can help. Use a vacuum with a HEPA filter or double bags.

The right care can make the difference between suffering with an allergic disease and feeling better. By visiting an experienced allergist, you can expect an accurate diagnosis, a treatment plan that works and educational information to help you manage your disease.

N SAFETY TIPS FDA recommends cooking sprouts Now is a good time to rethink raw sprouts, according to Deschutes County Health Services.

Prompted by recent recalls of clover sprouts by Sprouters Northwest and the salmonella outbreak that sickened people from Oregon and Washington, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration suggested cooking sprouts to reduce food-borne illness. The FDA also suggests customers ask restaurants to withhold raw sprouts when ordering.

The advice leaves few risk-free options for enjoying raw sprouts’ crunchy texture in salads or on sandwiches. This includes alfalfa, clover, celery and mung bean sprouts.

“Until there’s a process developed where they can be grown in a manner which reduces contamination …

I don’t think there is a time we’d recommend eating raw sprouts,” said Tom Kuhn, community health manager for Deschutes County Health Services. “There have been so many outbreaks historically, that’s why we recommend cooking or not eating them at all.”

Kuhn said raw sprouts have caused 39 known outbreaks nationwide since 1990, causing thousands of cases of food-borne illness.

Salmonella and E. coli are common bacteria found in sprout outbreaks.

Bacteria can live on surfaces, such as a sprout seed, for a long time, Bacteria also thrive on equipment and containers used where sprouts grow, because sprouts are grown in a moist humid environment. Rinsing sprouts won’t remove the bacteria.

Although sprouts have been associated with health foods, Kuhn said eliminating them from one’s diet shouldn’t cause any imbalances. “There’s probably not a tremendous amount of nutritional value that you’ll miss,” he said.

People who wonder if they got sick eating contaminated sprouts should consult their doctor. The risk of severe illness is especially high among the elderly, young children and anyone with a compromised immune system. For more information, call the Deschutes County Health Services Department at 541-322-7410.

Whip it good with this high-calorie dessert quiz

By Sam McManis McClatchy-Tribune News Service

On Jan. 5, a grateful nation celebrated National Whipped Cream Day. But, we confess, every day is whipped cream day at The Quiz’s house.

Take our test on this tasty and caloric treat.

1.

When was National Whipped Cream Day established? a) 1954 b) 2004 c) 2010

2.

According to the website www.foodreference.com, no one is certain how whipped cream was created. One “origin story” put forth by the website is this … a) World War I pilots carried tankards of cream in the cockpit and, when the plane reached a certain velocity, the cream partly congealed and whipped to a froth. b) Someone on horseback was carrying a half-full container of cream and riding fast and that partially whipped the cream. c) In Chaucer’s “The Canterbury Tales,” the Wife of Bath

angrily stirred a vat of cream to make butter so vigorously that it got whipped, pleasing the townsfolk during a subsequent feast.

3.

True or false: Cream must be below 50 degrees to whip; at 50 degrees or higher, it churns into butter rather than whipping.

4.

One cup (60 grams) of whipped cream has 154 calories. The real crime, though, is its percentage of daily value of saturated fat, which is what? a) 29 percent b) 41 percent c) 96 percent

5.

Contrary to popular belief, Kraft Cool Whip does contain some cream, but its main ingredient is hydrogenated oil.

Wired magazine reports it also contains polysorbate 60, which can be found in what other product? a) Detergent b) Sexual lubricants c) Both a and b

ANSWERS: 1: a; 2: b; 3: true; 4: b; 5: c.

An up-close look at those gels, goo packets, and gooey chomps that athletes call food.

Experts say sugary beverages should display harsh warnings

By Anne Aurand The Bulletin

If you picked up a can of soda and the label said its contents were linked to weight gain, tooth decay, heart disease and diabetes, would you drink it?

A coalition of health professionals recently petitioned the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to require dire message labels on sugary drinks. They hope explicit warnings would persuade people to put down the pop and pick up some water.

Dozens of health organizations and experts recently signed a letter to the FDA asking it to require health warnings on the bottles and cans of any drink that has more than 1.1 grams of sugar or caloric sweetener per ounce.

That would include nondiet sodas, of course, and even some sugar-sweetened iced teas and lemonades. Some Ocean Spray cranberry drinks would qualify.

The letter to the FDA suggests messages like these: • “The U.S. Government recommends that you drink fewer sugary drinks to prevent weight gain, tooth decay, heart disease and diabetes.”

• “Drinking too many sugary drinks can promote diabetes and heart disease.”

• “For better health, the U.S. government recommends that you limit your consumption of sugary drinks.”

• “This drink contains 250 calories. Consider switching to water.”

The Oregon Public Health Institute in Portland is one of the groups backing the petition.

“Obesity is such a big problem we’re trying to come up with ways to make it easier for people to make a healthy choice,” said Nancy Becker, a registered dietitian with the Institute. “Putting a warning on these beverages would just make it easier for people to perhaps put it down.”

A similar attempt to require health messages on sugary drinks foundered in 2005, but its backers hope the Obama Administration will be more receptive, especially considering the first lady’s key campaign is to fight obesity. The political climate has changed since the prior effort failed, said Becker, and the country has learned a lot about the dangers of sugary drinks since then.

Soda and other sugary drinks have become the single largest contributor of calories to the diet, according to the Center for Science in the Public Interest, a Wash., D.C.-based nutrition watchdog group. The group reports that 10 to 15 percent of teens’ caloric intake comes from sugary drinks, and even toddlers drink them.

Becker said Oregonians drink a gallon of sugary drinks each week.

And it’s all linked to obesity: One study estimated that each daily serving of soda increased a child’s risk of obesity by 60 percent, Becker said. Obesity, in turn, has been blamed for many serious health problems.

A coalition of health organizations petitioned the FDA last week to require warning labels on sugary drinks because they are linked to obesity and other health problems.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says obesity is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease, certain types of cancer and Type 2 diabetes. During the past 20 years there has been a dramatic increase in obesity in the United States, according to the CDC’s website.

In 1990, between 10 and 14 percent of Oregonians were obese, according to the CDC’s data. In 2009 that jumped to 23 percent.

(Obesity is defined by a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or greater.

BMI is calculated from weight and height.)

Catherine Monchamp, the direc-

tor for Bend’s Jenny Craig Weight Loss Center said it’s not news that soda is bad for your health or your weight. But people often neglect to count their beverages when considering overall intake.

“It’s not that people are unaware.

I think people just put their blinders on when they have a sugar addiction. They know how bad sugar is for them, but they don’t think ‘I’m going to be obese or develop diabetes,’” she said.

For 200 calories — a typical soda — a person could instead consume an egg, a piece of whole wheat bread and a serving of fruit.

That’s a meal that will fill up a per-

son for hours and provide a host of nutritional value, she said.

So will a label actually work to change people’s behaviors? Those behind the letter to the FDA believe so.

Monchamp agrees: “I kind of remember when the label came out on cigarettes, my parents quit (smoking) immediately. A certain percentage will think, ‘If the government is going to put a label on it, it must be bad. I’m going to quit.’

Others will not care.”

NOTICE TO RESIDENTIAL TENANTS NOTICE TO RESIDENTIAL TENANTS The property in which you are living is in foreclosure. A foreclosure sale is scheduled for 2/25/2011. Unless the lender who is foreclosing on this property is paid, the foreclosure will go through and someone new will own this property. The following information applies to you only if you occupy and rent this property as a residential dwelling under a legitimate rental agreement. The information does not apply to you if you own this property or if you are not a residential tenant. If the foreclosure goes through, the business or individual who buys this properly at the foreclosure sale has the right to require you to move out. The buyer must first give you an eviction notice in writing that specifies the date by which you must move out. The buyer may not give you this notice until alter the foreclosure sale happens. If you do not leave before the move-out dale, the buyer can have the sheriff remove you from the property after a court hearing. You will receive notice of the court hearing. FEDERAL LAW REQUIRES YOU TO BE NOTIFIED IF YOU ARE OCCUPYING AND RENTING THIS PROPERTY AS A RESIDENTIAL DWELLING UNDER A LEGITIMATE RENTAL AGREEMENT, FEDERAL LAW REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU NOTICE IN WRITING A CERTAIN NUMBER OF DAYS BEFORE THE BUYER CAN REQUIRE YOU TO MOVE OUT. THE FEDERAL LAW THAT REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU THIS NOTICE IS EFFECTIVE UNTIL DECEMBER 31, 2012. Under federal law, the buyer must give you at least 90 days' notice in writing before requiring you to move out. If you are renting this property under a fixed-term lease (for example, a six- month or one-year lease), you may stay until the end of your lease term. If the buyer wants to move in and use this property as the buyer's primary residence, the buyer can give you written notice and require you to move out after 90 days, even if you have a fixed-term lease with more than 90 days left. STATE LAW NOTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS IF THE FEDERAL LAW DOES NOT APPLY, STATE LAW STILL REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU NOTICE IN WRITING BEFORE REQUIRING YOU TO MOVE OUT IF YOU ARE OCCUPYING AND RENTING THE PROPERTY AS A TENANT IN GOOD FAITH. EVEN IF THE FEDERAL LAW REQUIREMENT IS NO LONGER EFFECTIVE AFTER DECEMBER 31, 2012, THE REQUIREMENT UNDER STATE LAW STILL APPLIES TO YOUR SITUATION. Under state law, if you have a fixed-term lease (for example, a six-month or one-year lease), the buyer must give you al least 60 days' notice in writing before requiring you to move out. If the buyer wants to move in and use this properly as the buyer's primary residence, the buyer can give you written notice and require you to move out after 30 days, even if you have a fixed-term lease with more than 30 days left. If you are renting under a month-to-month or week-to-week rental agreement, the buyer must give you at least 30 days' notice in writing before requiring you to move out.

IMPORTANT: For the buyer to be required to give you notice under state law, you must prove to the business or individual who is handling the foreclosure sale that you are occupying and renting this property as a residential dwelling under a legitimate rental agreement. The name and address of the business or individual who is handling the foreclosure sale is shown on this notice under the heading 'TRUSTEE.' You must mail or deliver your proof not later than January 26, 2011 (30 days before the dale first set for the foreclosure sale). Your proof must be in writing and should be a copy of your rental agreement or lease. If you do not have a written rental agreement or lease, you can provide other proof, such as receipts for rent you paid. ABOUT YOUR SECURITY DEPOSIT Under state law, you may apply your security deposit and any rent you paid in advance against the current rent you owe your landlord. To do this, you must notify your landlord in writing that you want to subtract the amount of your security deposit or prepaid rent from your rent payment. You may do this only for the rent you owe your current landlord. If you do this, you must do so before the foreclosure sale. The business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale is not responsible to you for any deposit or prepaid rent you paid to your landlord. ABOUT YOUR TENANCY AFTER THE FORECLOSURE SALE The business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale may be willing to allow you to stay as a tenant instead of requiring you lo move out. You should contact the buyer to discuss that possibility if you would like to slay. Under slate law, if the buyer accepts rent from you, signs a new residential rental agreement with you or does not notify you in writing within 30 days after the date of the foreclosure sale that you must move out, the buyer becomes your new landlord and must maintain the property.
