OREGON LAWMAKERS’ BUDGET PROPOSAL

Schools expected to get boost By Lauren Dake The Bulletin

Charles Dharapak / The Associated Press

President Barack Obama speaks about Libya on Monday in his first major address since ordering airstrikes nine days ago. Obama did not use the word “war” to describe the military action in Libya.

Defending action in Libya, Obama limits its scope

SALEM — Lawmakers plan to unveil a budget proposal today that is expected to give more money to schools than the governor’s budget. Legislators were tight-lipped about specifics, but the two-year budget is being released much earlier than in previous sessions. The

three co-chairs of the powerful Ways and Means Committee, charged with drafting the budget, have announced they have reached an agreement on the revenue and ending fund balance for the 2011-13 budget. In the four sessions that Rep. Gene Whisnant, R-Sunriver, has been a lawmaker, this is the earliest officials have agreed on a proposed budget. The timing is a testa-

ment, Whisnant said, to having both parties at the table. Whisnant said he heard the budget is close to the governor’s proposed budget, which was released in February. After the budget details are made public, subcommittees will start working on different aspects of the budget. See Budget / A4

COMING HOME TO A FARAWAY WORLD

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama defended the U.S.-led military assault in Libya on Monday, saying it was in the national interest of the United States to stop a potential massacre that would have “stained the conscience of the world.” Inside In his first major address since • U.S. air power ordering U.S. airstrikes on the gets expansive forces and artillery of Moammar role, Page A3 Gadhafi nine days ago, Obama said the United States had the responsibility and the international backing to stop what he characterized as a looming genocide in the Libyan city of Benghazi. “I refused to wait for the images of slaughter and mass graves before taking action,” Obama said. But at the same time, he said, directing U.S. troops to forcibly remove Gadhafi from power would be a step too far and would “splinter” the international coalition that has moved against the Libyan government.

Esther Brewer, 9, hugs her little brother, Reece, 3, for the first time Monday afternoon at the Redmond Airport. Jenay and Charlie Brewer, looking on, adopted Esther from Uganda and welcomed her home to Powell Butte on Monday after Esther and Charlie made the 40-hour trip from Africa.

The Washington Post

Inside a nondescript warehouse south of Mannheim, Germany, a dozen robots, ranging in size from a low-slung inspection bot no bigger than a toy wagon to a 22-ton Caterpillar excavator, stand ready to respond to a nuclear emergency. With their electronics hardened to withstand radiation, the versatile machines can handle fuel rods as well as monitor doses that would kill a human engineer. A similar robotic quick-response squad is housed near the Chinon nuclear power plant in France. But in Japan, where the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear crisis drags into its third week, the question is: Where are the robots? See Robots / A4

Adoptive Powell Butte family welcomes girl, 9, from Uganda By Erik Hidle The Bulletin

The Brewer family thinks it must have been a miracle that got them to this point, but after a year of working and waiting and worrying, their new daughter is home from Uganda and their family is complete. After a 40-hour trip from Entebbe International Airport in Uganda to the Redmond Airport, Charlie Brewer walked into the terminal Monday afternoon with his new daughter, a 9-year-old Ugandan girl with a pink back-

Some held banners, one proclaiming “It’s a Girl!” Some snapped photographs over and over. Brewer’s wife, Jenay, who had been waiting to greet the young girl, ran up and held her close. Esther’s five new siblings, ages 3 to 18, all embraced her.

Deschutes County Circuit Court Judge Stephen Tiktin expects to decide as soon as next week the case of a La Pine man accused of murdering his wife and burying her body in a metal barrel in 2002. On Monday, attorneys pre- Darrell sented closing Middlekauff arguments in the case of Darrell Middlekauff, 48, who prosecutors allege murdered his wife, Brenda Middlekauff, who was 40 when she disappeared in July 2002. Her body was discovered three years later, shot three times in the head and partially buried on private land a short distance from the Middlekauff’s home south of Sunriver. Middlekauff is charged with three counts of aggravated murder, one count of first-degree sexual abuse and 14 counts each of second-degree sexual abuse and providing controlled substances to a minor. The nonmurder charges stem from allegations that Middlekauff engaged in sexual intercourse with two underage girls and provided them with methamphetamine. He opted for a nonjury trial before Tiktin, ruling out the possibility of a death sentence. He could face life in prison if convicted. Deschutes County District Attorney Stephen Gunnels presented the prosecution’s closing arguments. Using the court’s computer screen, Gunnels moved through the evidence, playing pieces of phone conversations, reading aloud parts of Middlekauff’s letters, and recapping testimony from the trial. Gunnels described Brenda Middlekauff as a compassionate, good person with a strong work ethic. See Middlekauff / A6

Is it a good time to buy a new car? By Jerry Hirsch Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — To buy or not to buy? That is the question facing many car shoppers these days. That’s because rising gas expenses and a looming shortage of Japanese-built hybrid and fuelefficient vehicles are starting to pump up prices for gas-sipping autos. But analysts at auto information company Kelley Blue Book say that with all this turmoil in the marketplace, consumers should think twice about jumping to buy a new car. They say it’s a mistake to pay a premium for a fuel-efficient car when gas prices could easily drop in the coming months and the prices of the vehicles come back down. Likewise, the earthquake in Japan has upended auto production, with both Toyota and Honda having closed factories there temporarily. But they will probably be back up in weeks or several months, and inventories could rise soon thereafter. “Don’t run into the marketplace and purchase a new vehicle unless you absolutely have to. Wait for gas prices to come down and the Japanese earthquake to no longer be an issue,” said Juan Flores, director of vehicle valuation for Kelley Blue Book. Flores notes that crude oil is abundant. Prices are up because oil traders are nervous about the political instability in the Middle East and Persian Gulf rather than because of a surge in demand or shortage. “These fuel prices are not sustainable,” he said. Kelley Blue Book foresees “soft” prices for small and hybrid cars two to three years out, he said. But other analysts aren’t so sure. With the possible exception of the Toyota Prius hybrid, “I cannot imagine a scenario where there will be more cars to choose from or lower prices months from now than what we have now,” said Jeremy Anwyl, chief executive of auto information company Edmunds.com. Current sales incentives being offered by manufacturers run through the end of the month.

Thinkstock

Middle East unrest has driven up oil prices, while the March 11 earthquake and tsunami have suspended Japanese auto production. Experts differ on whether it’s a good time to buy a new car. Consumers might as well take advantage of them because the deals might not be as good next month, he said. There could be an upside to buying now. “If the supply of cars is disrupted, dealer pricing would firm up, incentives would go down, and you will have more limited options, such as not being able to get the color you want,” Anwyl said. Milton Olin, an attorney from Woodland Hills, Calif., watched the world events unfold and decided to lease a new Prius from Toyota Scion of Santa Monica last week.

“With gas prices going up and my sense that the Japanese industry would be disrupted by the earthquake and tsunami and radioactive concerns, I thought that prices had nowhere to go but up,” Olin said. “I think that fuel prices will inch their way up too even if they back down for a little bit.” High gas prices also were enough to get Bruce Stryd, a pastor in Fremont, Calif., to replace an aging Ford Explorer that got just 12 miles per gallon with a Mazda3 hatchback with nearly double the fuel efficiency this week. “My sense is that it is a good time to buy a car,” he said. “There

are still a lot of incentives out there, and the dealers seem like they really want to move the vehicles. The fuel issue isn’t going to turn around. Prices will keep going up.” Jim Francis of Sterling, Va., made a similar decision during the gasoline price spike of 2008, paying $26,000 for a Prius to replace an aging Nissan. He said gas prices then fell from their highs, just about assuring that Francis would never recover the premium he paid for the hybrid over a conventional compact car. He also missed out on the last year of attractive incentives and deals for the Prius, a result of Toyota’s efforts to maintain U.S. market share in the face of millions of vehicle recalls that have damaged the brand. But three years after his purchase, Francis doesn’t regret his decision. “It is not totally about the dollars. It is an environmental thing, a feel-good thing. Still, it’s been nice to fill up once every two weeks for the past several years when you have a 50-mile commute,” Francis said. Francis and Stryd are pretty typical consumers, Anwyl said. “Most people are not making decisions based on what they think pricing or availability will be two or three months from now. People are asking these bigger questions now only because of all these events playing out on the world stage,” he said. Figuring out the effect of the Japanese earthquake on the U.S auto market could take weeks, and possibly longer. And divining what’s ahead for gas prices is even more difficult. “There is no doubt that the price of gasoline is out of whack with the current supply that we have,” said Phil Flynn, an oil analyst with PFGBest Research. Gas could quickly slide back toward $2 a gallon if political stability returned to the Middle East, he said. Crude oil supplies are at close to a record high for this time of year. Still, Flynn said, the political upheavals in the Middle East create “historic risks to the price of petroleum unlike any we have seen in many decades.”

U.S. passes France as biggest wine consumer By Ryan Flinn Bloomberg News

The United States has passed France as the world’s largest wine-consuming nation for the first time, lifted by its larger population and an interest in wine among young Americans. Wine shipments to the U.S. climbed 2 percent to 329.7 million cases last year, according to Gomberg, Fredrikson & Associates, a wine-industry consulting firm in Woodside, Calif. That compares with 320.6 million for France. While the French still eclipse Americans in per-capita consumption, the U.S. wine industry is benefiting from a domestic population of almost 311 million people — five times the size of France’s — and a surge of young people becoming interested in the drink. Marketers also are using social media to reach a new generation of consumers, said Jon Fredrikson, the firm’s president. “Wine is really gaining traction in the U.S. It’s becoming an accepted part of everyday life,” Fredrikson said. “That’s a radical change over the past two decades.” The retail value of U.S. wine sales rose 4 percent to $30 billion in 2010, according to Gomberg Fredrikson. California’s output accounted for 61 percent of the volume. The French drank about 14 gallons on average in 2008, the latest year with figures available from the Wine Institute, a trade group in San Francisco. That compares with 2.6 gallons for Americans. Chardonnay was the bestselling varietal in the U.S. last year, with $2.03 billion in revenue, according to Nielsen Co., followed by cabernet sauvignon with $1.38 billion. The fastest-growing varietals were pinot noir, riesling and sauvignon blanc, which all rose more than 9 percent.

Rethink your current wardrobe before buying new By Jessica Yadegaran Contra Costa Times

March showers. Blooming flowers. And a hike in the cost of clothing. Didn’t expect that last one as a sign of spring, did you? Well, this season will be remembered as the first time in a decade that the cost of clothing, particularly cotton, will go up instead of down. That should make you think twice about throwing away that cardigan when you’re doing your spring cleaning — even if it’s three seasons old. With that in mind, we enlisted the help of Alicia Shaffer, owner of Prim, Pleasanton, Calif.’s newest boho chic boutique, to select seven items every woman should buy or salvage from her closet. These pieces can be worn yearround and mixed and matched with other basics to make multiple outfits. And, for inspiration, some of the items have a distinctly soft, feminine feel of spring.

Tunic jersey dress Tall people can pull off a tunic-style dress as a top, but most women will rock this soft, jersey tunic as a dress. With the right accessories, it seamlessly goes from day to night, Shaffer says. You can buy it in a solid color, such as gray or navy, but she prefers the bright floral patterns of spring. Plan to spend: $45 to $60. Outfits: “Wear it with a wide, woven belt and gladiator sandals or throw it over a pair of leggings for more of a bohemian look,” Shaffer says.

Black leggings No one item is as versatile as a cotton-lycra blend of leggings in black, Shaffer says. They are comfortable, flattering, affordable, and break up the week for those of us who live in jeans. Plan to spend: $15 to $25. Outfits: “You can wear the leggings with the tiered tank top and flats or tunic dress and

pumps,” Shaffer says. In cooler weather, pair the tank and leggings with boots and a feminine blazer or big sweater.

Slub cardigan One touch of this long, lightweight, knit cardigan and you’ll never go back to the short, buttoned variety. “You want one with an asymmetrical cut that hits at the hip bone,” Shaffer says. “That’s the most flattering.” She suggests choosing one in a charcoal gray or chocolate brown. Plan to spend: $30 to $45. Outfits: “This cardigan goes with everything. It works with a tank top and jeans just as much as a pencil skirt and blouse or over a dress,” Shaffer says.

Tiered tank top It’s likely you don’t have this item in your closet. And you might think the three-tier style wouldn’t favor every body type, but it does. The drapey style hits just below the hips, Shaffer says, so everyone falls in love with it. For maximum use, she recommends it in a neutral tone. Plan to spend: $20 to $40. Outfits: “You can wear this with everything,” Shaffer says. “Skinny jeans, black leggings, shorts, work slacks. You can throw the cardigan over it or the tunic dress for a soft, pulled together look.”

Linen pants “These are a basic you wouldn’t normally think of, but they work so well from spring to summer and even into fall if you pair them with darker colors,” Shaffer says. She suggests a putty or gray color. Plan to spend: $35 to $50. Outfits: Where to begin? You can wear these lightweight, straight leg pants under the tunic dress for a bohemian look or with the tiered tank and cardigan or any other basic top in your closet, Shaffer says.

Ruffled blouse If it’s not a staple already, this rayon-cotton blend blouse will join your white button-down as a wardrobe must-have. It’s also long-sleeved but softer and lighter than its crisp, boxy cousin. Plan to spend: $30 to $40. Outfits: The top looks great with skinny jeans, a pencil skirt, or black leggings, she says.

Skinny jeans Despite their staying power through the seasons, a lot of people are still hesitant to go skinny, Shaffer says. “But they have so much stretch to them that you cannot go wrong, no matter how curvy you are,” she says. Plan to spend: About $80, although some can cost up to $150. Outfits: The possibilities are endless, Shaffer says. She loves skinnies with the ruffled blouse or tiered tank top and cardigan. But a simple white T-shirt is also chic and timeless.

Faced with a surging methamphetamine problem, a number of states are weighing contentious bills this spring that would require a doctor’s prescription for popular decongestants like Sudafed. The drugs contain pseudoephedrine, the crucial ingredient in methamphetamine, and the police say past efforts to keep them out of the hands of meth cooks have failed. “It’s a no-brainer,” said Thomas Farmer, director of the Tennessee Methamphetamine Task Force, who is pushing for a prescriptiononly law along with most other law enforcement officials here. “This has got to be the next step.”

Justices take Wal-Mart discrimination lawsuit WASHINGTON — When the Supreme Court considers today whether hundreds of thousands of women can band together in an employment discrimination suit against Wal-Mart, the argument may hinge on the validity of the hotly disputed conclusions of a Chicago sociologist. Plaintiffs in the class-action suit, who claim that Wal-Mart owes billions of dollars to as many as 1.5 million women who they say were unfairly treated on pay and promotions, enlisted the support of William Bielby, an academic specializing in “social framework analysis.” The Supreme Court is not considering whether Wal-Mart, the country’s largest retailer and biggest private employer, in fact discriminated against women who worked there. For now, the question before the justices in the case, Wal-Mart Stores v. Dukes, No. 10-277, is only whether hundreds of thousands of female workers have enough in common to join in a single lawsuit.

High court reviews campaign financing WASHINGTON — The five justices in the majority in Citizens United, last year’s campaign finance blockbuster, appeared poised on Monday to strike down an Arizona law that provides matching funds to candidates who accept public financing. Near the end of the argument, Justice Stephen Breyer, who dissented in Citizens United, asked whether the court should continue what he suggested was a harmful piecemeal approach to striking down aspects of complex campaign finance laws.

Brand-name drugs raise Medicaid costs WASHINGTON — Medicaid, the joint federal-state health program for the poor, spent $329 million extra in 2009 purchasing 20 brand-name drugs instead of available generic copies, according to an American Enterprise Institute report. The study included contraceptives, respiratory medicines and antibiotics. Risperdal, New Brunswick, N.J.-based Johnson & Johnson’s antipsychotic, prescribed in generic form exclusively would have saved $60 million in 2009, the report released Monday found. — From wire reports

New York Times News Service

SANAA, Yemen — Yemen’s political crisis deepened Monday when an explosion tore through a crowd of looters at an abandoned government weapons factory in the south, killing at least 110 people and underscoring an ominous collapse of authority after six weeks of rising protests. In recent days, government forces have abandoned their posts across the country, including areas where northern rebels have long challenged the military and southern provinces where al-Qaida’s Arabian branch has maintained sanctuaries, Yemeni officials and witnesses said. President Ali Abdullah Saleh cast the government’s losses in stark terms Sunday, telling a committee from his political party that six of Yemen’s 18 provinces “have fallen.” But some Yemeni officials and analysts said the government withdrawals, and Saleh’s dramatic claim, might be at least partly a ploy to warn his backers in the West and the Arab world about possible consequences were he to fall from power.

‘Ripped apart’ “Sadly, the country is being ripped apart” to maintain Saleh’s hold on power, said one high-ranking Yemeni official, speaking of the turmoil in Yemen’s outlying areas. The Yemeni president has often held himself up as the only alternative to chaos or alQaida-style extremism. Last week, battered by the defections of top military support-

WASHINGTON — Even as President Barack Obama on Monday described a narrower role for the United States in a NATO-led operation in Libya, the U.S. military has been carrying out an expansive and increasingly potent air campaign to compel the Libyan Army to turn against Moammar Gadhafi. The United States has fired nearly 193 Tomahawk cruise missiles since the campaign started on March 19. The United States has flown about 370 attack missions, and dropped 455 precision-guided munitions. The strategy for White House officials nervous that the Libya operation could drag on for weeks or months, even under a NATO banner, is to hit Libyan forces hard enough to force them to oust Gadhafi, a result that Obama has openly encouraged. Ten days into the assault, the officials said that Libya’s formidable integrated air defense has been largely obliterated, and that the operation was shifting to a new phase devised to put even more pressure on the country’s armor and ground troops.

Muhammed Muheisen / The Associated Press

Anti-government protesters demand the resignation of Yemeni President Ali Abdullah Saleh, in Sanaa, Yemen, on Sunday. ers as well as vast demonstrations in Sanaa, the capital, and in other major cities, he took part in discussions mediated by U.S. diplomats aimed at a peaceful transfer of power. The talks bogged down, and Saleh has since hardened his public stance, saying he would make no more concessions. Saleh’s government is facing real challenges, and it was not clear whether he was exploiting the situation for political gain. Certainly, the massive demonstrations in cities across Yemen have strained the capacities of Yemen’s fragile state, pushing police officers and soldiers back from town centers and testing their loyalties. The strains have grown worse since government supporters

opened fire on protesters in the capital March 18, killing at least 50 and igniting outrage across the country.

Political ploy One thing is clear: Yemen’s opposition parties, as well as the loose-knit youth groups that led the protests challenging Saleh, believe the chaos and violence are nothing more than a cynical political ploy. On Monday, the opposition parties, known as the JMP, released a statement saying of the factory explosion: “This horrible crime came after the order of the authority to openly withdraw its military and security in favor of Qaida and other armed groups, in a desperate attempt of President Saleh to

confirm his argument that Yemen is just a ticking time bomb.” The explosion Monday took place as crowds of impoverished local residents were looting the factory for valuable weapons, witnesses said. It appears to have been accidental, possibly caused by a lit cigarette on gunpowder or a gun used to open a room full of dynamite. If Saleh was hoping for support from neighboring Saudi Arabia, which sent military forces to shore up its ally and neighbor, Bahrain, earlier this month, he is not likely to succeed. The Saudis have been involved in efforts to secure a “dignified exit” from power, according to an Arab diplomat who spoke on the condition of anonymity in line with diplomatic protocol.

Contaminated water leaks reported at Japanese plant New York Times News Service TOKYO — Highly contaminated water is escaping a damaged reactor at the crippled nuclear power plant in Japan and could soon leak into the ocean, where some radioactive materials have already been detected. The discovery, announced by the country’s nuclear regulator on Monday, is a further setback to efforts to contain the crisis. In another new finding, Tokyo Electric Power Co., which runs the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station, said late Monday that it had detected higher levels of plutonium in soil samples taken from within the compound a week ago, raising fears of yet another dangerous element that may be escaping the crippled

reactors. It was unclear where the plutonium had come from. The reactors could be a source, and tests of nuclear weapons in the atmosphere, which ended in 1980, left trace amounts of plutonium. The highest levels in the soil, of plutonium 238, were found about 500 yards from the most heavily damaged reactors, the company said. Yukio Edano, the chief cabinet secretary, said early today that the makeup of the plutonium in the soil suggested that traces could be escaping the reactors. Together with the highly radioactive water, he said, this could be more evidence that fuel rods inside some of the reactors may be damaged. “There is a high possibility that there has been a slight melting of the fuel rods,” he said.

Time short, tempers flare in budget showdown The Associated Press WASHINGTON — With the clock ticking toward a possible government shutdown, spending-cut talks between Senate Democrats and the Republicans controlling the House have broken off in a whomdo-you-trust battle over legislation to keep operations running for another six months. Democrats have readied a proposal to cut $20 billion more from this year’s budget, a party official said, but they haven’t yet sent it to House Republicans. That’s because they say it’s unclear whether the majority Republicans would accept a split-the-difference bargain they’d earlier hinted at or will yield to demands of tea party-backed GOP freshmen for a tougher measure. Republicans countered that it’s the Democrats who have yet to offer a serious plan to wrestle spending under con-

trol and that a Democratic offer from last week to cut $11 billion from the budget was laced with gimmickry. The vehicle for the latest fighting is legislation to bankroll the day-to-day operating budgets of federal agencies — including military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan — through the Sept. 30 end of the budget year. Other major tests will soon follow, as House Republicans unveil a blueprint to attack the broader budget mess next week — and a must-do measure to maintain the government’s ability to borrow money to meet its responsibilities. Within that context, the current battle involves relatively modest amounts. Time is running short. Stafflevel negotiations last week ran aground, and the principals are going to have to pick up the pace to have any chance of making an April 8 deadline to avoid a partial shutdown of the government.

A Saudi man who had been a student at Vanderbilt and Texas Tech universities pleaded not guilty on Monday in federal court in Lubbock, Texas, to a charge of trying to assemble an explosive device, with the potential to be used for U.S. targets including New York City, a Dallas residence of former President George W. Bush and dams. The defendant, Khalid Aldawsari, 20, a chemical engineering student, had obtained two of the three chemicals needed to assemble a bomb during the past several months and had sought to buy the third, prosecutors said. He was arrested Feb. 23. Aldawsari faces a single count of attempted use of a weapon of mass destruction, which carries a penalty of life in prison. A federal judge has barred lawyers from discussing the case publicly. The trial is scheduled to start May 2.

CIA profiling delves into minds of global leaders By Benedict Carey New York Times News Service

He is a delusional narcissist who will fight until his last breath. Or an impulsive showman who will hop the next flight out of town when cornered. Or maybe he’s a psychopath, a coldly calculating strategist — crazy, like a desert fox. The endgame in Libya is likely to turn in large part on the instincts of Moammar Gadhafi, and any insight into those instincts would be enormously valuable to policy makers. Journalists have formed their impressions from anecdotes, or from his actions in the past; others have seized on his recent tirades about al-Qaida and President Barack Obama. But at least one group has tried to construct a profile based on scientific methods, and its conclusions are the ones most likely to affect U.S. policy. For decades, analysts at CIA and the Department of Defense have compiled psychological assessments of hostile leaders like Gadhafi, Kim Jong Il of North Korea and President Hugo Chavez of Venezuela, as well as allies, potential successors and other prominent officials. (Many foreign governments do the same, of course.) Diplomats, military strategists and even presidents have drawn on those profiles to inform their decisions — in some cases to their benefit, in other cases at a cost. The political profile “is perhaps most important in cases where you have a leader who dominates the society, who can act virtually without constraint,” said Dr. Jerrold Post, a psychiatrist who directs the political psychology program at George Washington University and founded the CIA branch that does behavioral analysis. “And that has been the case here, with Gadhafi and Libya.” The official dossiers are classified. But the methods are well known. Civilian psychologists have developed many of the techniques, drawing mostly on public information about a given leader: speeches, writings, biographical facts, observable behavior. The resulting forecasts suggest that “at-a-distance profiling,” as it is

Robots Continued from A1 The answer is disquieting, say Japan’s top roboticists. Instead of building robots that go where humans never could, this country renowned for its robotics expertise invested in machines that do things that humans can already do — like talk, dance, play the violin and preside over weddings. “The government believed this accident wouldn’t happen,” said Hirose Shigeo, a robotics researcher at the Tokyo Institute of Technology. “Most of the robot experts are concentrating on humanoid robots and home use.” “We should have focused on response and disaster-mitigation robots,” said Satoshi Tadokoro, who builds search-and-rescue robots at Tohoku University in Sendai. “The Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry did not do that. The power companies did not do that. It is very strange and inappropriate.” After a 1999 accident at a nuclear fuel processing facility in Tokai in which two workers died from radiation exposure, the Japanese government and the company operating the facility began developing radiation-resistant robots. But after a year, the trade ministry halted the project, said Shigeo and Tadokoro. Another Japanese agency, the Nuclear Safety Technology Center, constructed two robots equipped with cameras and hazardous-materials monitors. One, called Monirobo, was dispatched to Fukushima last week, according to Japanese news reports. But representatives of Tokyo Electric Power Co., which operates the Dai-ichi facility, aren’t saying how, or even whether, the robot is being used on-site. The need for robots that can withstand high radiation was made even more evident over the weekend after two workers at Dai-ichi were hospitalized after wading in radioactive water. Robots sent to the site early in the crisis could have guided key decisions by providing vital data on damage to the facility’s reactors and adjacent pools of used uranium fuel. Instead, official statements from Tepco convey uncertainty about the extent of damage. And the International Atomic Energy Agency has repeatedly pushed

“[Gadhafi] is indeed prepared to go down in flames.” — Dr. Jerrold Post, in a profile of Libya’s Moammar Gadhafi for Foreign Policy magazine known, is still more an art than a science. So in a crisis like the one in Libya, it is crucial to know the assessments’ potential value and real limitations. “Expert profilers are better at predicting behavior than a blindfolded chimpanzee, all right, but the difference is not as large as you’d hope it would be,” said Philip Tetlock, a psychologist at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania and the author of “Expert Political Judgment: How Good Is It? How Can We Know?” who has done profiling of his own. “There’s no secret sauce, and my impression is that often the process can be rushed,” as a leader suddenly becomes a person of intense interest.

First study: Hitler The method with the longest track record is modeled on clinical case studies, the psychobiographies that therapists create when making a diagnosis, citing influences going back to the sandbox. The first one on record, commissioned in the early 1940s by the Office of Strategic Services, the predecessor to the CIA, was of Adolf Hitler; in it, the Harvard personality specialist Henry Murray speculated freely and luridly about Hitler’s “infinite selfabasement,” “homosexual panic” and Oedipal tendencies. Analysts still use this clinicalcase approach but now ground it far more firmly in biographical facts than on Freudian speculation or personal opinion. In a profile of Gadhafi for Foreign Policy magazine, Post concludes that the dictator, while usually rational, is prone to delusional thinking when under pressure — “and right now, he is under the most stress he has been under since taking over the leadership of Libya.”

for better information. Shigeo said a robot developed in his lab, called Helios IX, could fill the reconnaissance niche. The machine can climb stairs, open doors, and monitor temperature and radiation. If its cameras aimed at the spent fuel pools, they could show whether water cannons operated by ground crews were refilling the pools or simply splashing streams onto the floor. After the crisis began more than two weeks ago, Shigeo upgraded the radio communications on Helios IX so it can be guided from longer distances and through the heavy concrete of the Dai-ichi plant. So far, though, no one has requested his help — or that of his robot. Another reconnaissance robot, built by Tadokoro and named Quince, may be called into action. The Tokyo Fire Department, which has sent vehicles and workers to Dai-ichi, is evaluating how the low-slung, tank-tracked machine could assist, Tadokoro said. American robots are being enlisted as well. A Massachusetts company, iRobot, known for its Roomba vacuum cleaners, sent four of its heavier-duty robots to Fukushima, said Joseph Dyer, the company’s chief operating officer. Citing the sensitivity of the situation, Dyer declined to discuss which operations the robots might be involved in or whether the Japanese government had requested the shipment. On Friday, a spokeswoman for the Department of Energy said the agency was evaluating its robotic inventory at the request of the Japanese government. The department has built several remotely operated robots to clean up radioactive waste from former nuclear-fuel processing facilities at its Hanford Site in Washington state and Savannah River Site in South Carolina. Despite these investments, France (which derives about 80 percent of its electricity from nuclear power), and Germany (25 percent) are the only countries with at-the-ready robots designed for nuclear disasters. The nuclear power industry in each country has funded the operations for decades. In the United States, the government and the nuclear industry have instead been reactive, building a handful of robots for specific nuclear tasks — but only after accidents.

Gadhafi sees himself as the ultimate outsider, the Muslim warrior fighting impossible odds, Post argues, and he “is indeed prepared to go down in flames.” Characterizations of this type have been invaluable in the past. In preparation for the Camp David peace negotiations between Israel and Egypt, the CIA provided President Jimmy Carter with profiles of both nations’ leaders, Menachem Begin and Anwar Sadat. In his memoir “Keeping Faith,” Carter credited the profiles with giving him crucial insights that helped close a peace deal. The brief on the Egyptian president, “Sadat’s Nobel Prize Complex,” noted that Sadat “sees himself as a grand strategist and will make tactical concessions if he is persuaded his overall goals will be achieved,” and added, “His selfconfidence has permitted him to make bold initiatives, often overriding his advisers’ objections.” Intelligence specialists have learned to hedge their bets over the years, supplementing case histories with “content analysis” techniques, which look for patterns in a leader’s comments or writings. For instance, a software program developed by a researcher at Syracuse University, Margaret Hermann, evaluates the relative frequency of certain categories of words (like “I,” “me,” “mine”) in interviews, speeches and other sources and links the scores to leadership traits. A technique used by David Winter, a professor of psychology at the University of Michigan, draws on similar sources to judge leaders’ motives, in particular their need for power, achievement and affiliation. The sentence “We can certainly wipe them out” reflects a high power orientation; the comment “After dinner, we sat around chatting and laughing together” rings of affiliation. “Combine high power and high affiliation, the person is likely to reach out, whereas power and low affiliation tend to predict aggression,” said Winter, who has profiled presidents Richard Nixon and Bill Clinton, among many others. “That’s the idea, though of course you can’t predict anything with certainty.”

Budget Continued from A1 The budget needs to be finalized by the end of the session, which is scheduled for June 30. The governor’s budget is considered a framework that the Legislature uses as a guideline. Sen. Chris Telfer, R-Bend, said lawmakers are “sworn to secrecy” on the details. But she’s glad they are relying on the most recent economic forecast instead of waiting for the May forecast to base their budget on — a move she has pushed in the past. State economists provide a forecast every three months. “You have Republicans at the table when it comes to budgeting and discussions; two years ago you didn’t,” she

said. “We were saying the same thing back then, but now we’re part of the game and we get to play.” Telfer said she believes releasing K-12 budget details early will help local school districts plan. Kitzhaber’s budget proposes $5.56 billion for schools. School officials have said the amount is $1 billion short of what they need to maintain their current level of service. “The good news, I think, coming out of this budget release tomorrow is I do believe we’ll be able to tell K-12 their budgets pretty soon, instead of waiting until June 30 ... so they can move

If you have been living with back pain or neck pain, are you really living? If you think you’ve tried everything, you need to read this. Pills and shots temporarily mask pain, and often times do more harm to the body than good. Surgeries are invasive, cause new pains, require weeks of downtime, and still may not be successful at treating the cause of the pain. It’s time to look at an alternative that avoids all of these downfalls because it is fundamentally different. Redmond Wellness & Chiropractic offers such an alternative with our spinal decompression program

that is like no other in Central Oregon. We know our program works because we have already seen outstanding success with our patients. People suffering from excruciating, lifestyle-altering pain have entered our program. When they completed our spinal decompression program, they were able to return to work, get back to the activities they love, and cancel those shots and surgeries!

The x-rays showed that I had degenerative disc disease and arthritis in the spine. The pain started in my right buttock, radiated across my thigh, and into my kneecap. Traditional chiropractic care hadn’t helped. After three treatments on the SpineMed table about 70% of the pain was gone. Upon completion of treatment I am 85% pain free, I can stand up straight and don’t have to lean over the shopping cart, and can walk almost a mile. Best of all, Mr. Grumpy is gone! --Dave D., Redmond, November 2010

Spinal decompression therapy uses state of the art equipment from SpineMed with a variety of technologies and therapies tailored to each patient’s needs. And it’s all completely noninvasive! You can get relief from:

• Back Pain • Neck Pain • Herniated/Bulging Discs

• Degenerative Disc Disease • Sciatica • Spinal Stenosis

Thanks to spinal decompression I feel better than I did before the pinched nerve in my back! According to the M.D. who read my MRI - my back was a mess and worn out with a lot of arthritis. He recommended a nerve block which didn’t help. The next recommendation was surgery. That’s when I visited Dr. Herrin at Redmond Wellness & Chiropractic and discussed spinal decompression. After 7-8 treatments I was pain free and off vicodin. I was even able to go back to work! I would recommend this as an alternative to anyone considering back surgery. The nurse called to tell me when the surgery date was scheduled, and I’m feeling so great that I canceled it! Thanks to everyone at Redmond Wellness & Chiropractic! --Steve L., Bend, June 2010

We are offering FREE examinations and consultations, so that anybody can learn if they can be helped with spinal decompression therapy without any financial obligation.

30 years after Reagan shot, outlook dim for gun control By David Lightman McClatchy-Tribune News Service

WASHINGTON — Wednesday is the 30th anniversary of the attempted assassination of Ronald Reagan. Gun-control advocates, including Reagan’s wounded press secretary, Jim Brady, will use the day to launch a renewed push for curbs on guns. Once again, chances are they won’t get very far. The public remains sharply divided, largely along geographic lines, over gun rights vs. gun control. Gun-rights groups, led by the National Rifle Association, dramatically outspend gun-control organizations on campaign donations and lobbying. President Barack Obama, though he urged gun-control action in an essay March 13 in the Arizona Daily Star newspaper, hasn’t made a strong push. Congress is likely to remain preoccupied with budget battles, with lawmakers unlikely to tackle the divisive issue of guns. “People are sensitive to the issue of gun violence because of the Giffords shooting ... but the gun issue is down on Congress’ list of priorities, given high unemployment and two and a half wars,” said Darrell West, the director of governance studies at the Brookings Institution, a center-left Washington policy-research center. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, DAriz., is recovering at a Houston rehabilitation center after being shot in the head Jan. 8 outside a Tucson supermarket. “She’s the most prominent victim since Reagan,” noted Paul Helmke, the president of the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence. The Tucson incident, combined with the Reagan anniversary, gives gun-control advocates a fresh platform. Brady and his wife, Sarah, a leading gun-control advocate, plan to visit the White House on Tuesday and Capitol Hill on Wednesday to lobby for tighter

Reagan Continued from A1 And, as happens every day in hospitals across the country, it was the nurses who left a lasting impression on their patient. The nurses’ brush with history began at 2:30 p.m. on March 30, when Reagan arrived at GWU’s emergency room. He had just been hustled away from gunfire outside the Washington Hilton, where three other men — James Brady, his press secretary; Thomas Delahanty, a District of Columbia police officer; and Tim McCarthy, a Secret Service agent — had been wounded at close range by a young man named John W. Hinckley Jr., who was attempting to assassinate the president. On the race back to the White House in the presidential limousine, it initially seemed that Reagan had not been harmed by any of Hinckley’s six shots. But then the president started spitting up blood and complaining about his breathing. A quick-thinking Secret Service agent, Jerry Parr, diverted the armored Lincoln to the hospital, where Reagan insisted on walking into the ER.

‘Please don’t die’ Kathy Paul Stevens was one of the first nurses to see the president as he hobbled through the doors. He looked ashen and very sick, and suddenly collapsed into the arms of nurses and agents. To Stevens and other medical personnel, Reagan looked like he might die. While tending to the president, Stevens’ hands shook, and only one thought went through her head: “Please don’t die, please don’t die, please don’t die. Not here. Not today. Please don’t die.” Another nurse, Wendy Koenig, battled back tears as she strapped an inflatable cuff on the president’s arm to ascertain his blood pressure. But she couldn’t hear anything through her stethoscope. “I can’t get a systolic pressure,” Koenig said in near panic while other nurses and technicians sliced off Reagan’s new blue suit and hooked up IV lines that would provide critical fluids to help prevent the president from slipping into shock. Finally, Koenig got a reading: around 60 — very low for a man whose normal blood pressure was 140. Surgeons arrived and soon discovered a bullet wound in

curbs on firearms. “I think prospects are better than you’re probably hearing,” Sarah Brady said Monday in an interview. However, she conceded, “there’s an awful lot on everybody’s schedule, and their thoughts right now are often elsewhere.”

‘Not much has been done’ That’s nothing new. Other than the 1993 “Brady Bill,” which requires background checks for handgun or long-gun purchasers from federally licensed gun dealers, “not much has been done in the last 30 years,” Helmke said. A 1994 crime bill passed with Democratic majorities that included a ban on assault weapons, but Democrats then lost their congressional majorities that fall. The ban’s unpopularity, especially in the South and West, was cited as one primary reason for the losses. The ban expired in 2004. The Obama administration hasn’t launched a serious effort to renew it. After the 1999 shootings of Columbine High School students in Colorado, Democrats pushed hard to close the “gun show loophole,” which permitted sales at gun shows without background checks. Vice President Al Gore’s vote broke a Senate tie, allowing the measure to pass. But the effort died later in the congressional session, and Gore, in a tight 2000 presidential race as the Democrats’ nominee, was largely mum on the effort. No gun-violence horror ever has tilted the political world decisively toward strong gun control. In 1965, about two years after President John F. Kennedy was assassinated, a Gallup Poll found that 44 percent of the nation wouldn’t support a handgun ban. The month after the Reagan shooting, that figure climbed to 58 percent. Last year it hit 69 percent.

Reagan’s left chest, about five inches below his armpit. A doctor inserted a tube to drain blood, which poured into a container. As the tube relieved the pressure in Reagan’s chest, he began to feel a bit better. At one point, after being told he was going to the operating room, Reagan turned to a technician, Cyndi Hines, who worked alongside the ER nurses. “What do you think?” the president asked her. Hines, who had inserted a IV line into Reagan’s right arm when he arrived, smiled. She was pretty sure she knew what he was really asking: “Am I going to be okay, or am I going to die?” Patients, afraid to pester the doctors, asked her that question all the time. “I think you are doing all right,” she replied gently. “They are taking you to the OR. If you were really bad, they would be opening you up right here. I really think you are doing fine.” The president grinned at her through his oxygen mask and was soon wheeled to the operating room, where he would undergo about three hours of surgery to stop his hemorrhaging — he would ultimately lose more than half of his blood — and to retrieve the mangled bullet from his lung.

Always cracking jokes In the recovery room that night, two other nurses, Denise Sullivan and Cathy Edmondson, took over his care. When he struggled with the breathing tube snaking down his throat, they gently admonished him not to touch it; holding his hand, they told him everything would be okay. Eventually, someone gave Reagan a pen and pencil and a clipboard, and the president began jotting notes. “I keep on breathing?” he wrote at one point. Yes, the nurses said. While clearly uncomfortable and struggling to breathe, the irrepressible entertainer couldn’t stop himself from delivering jokes and one-liners. “All in all I would rather be in Phil,” he wrote, reprising a famous W.C. Fields line. Sullivan and Edmondson chuckled. Okay, Sullivan thought, he’s going to make it. A bit later, the president jotted a final note to Sullivan, a hazeleyed and petite 34-year-old, just before the end of her shift. “Does Nancy know about us?” he asked in an innocently flirtatious way. A decade later — in writing the letter to Sullivan and thanking

Cultural factors influence public attitudes. A Pew Research Center poll taken Aug. 25-Sept. 6 found that in the East, 60 percent favored gun control while 36 percent supported gun rights. In the Midwest, 52 percent backed gun rights, and 44 percent preferred gun control. The South was split, though the tally was 61 percent to 36 percent for gun rights in Alabama, Kentucky, Mississippi and Tennessee. The poll surveyed 3,509 people; its margin of error is 2 percentage points. Urban Democrats are the most vocal gun-control advocates, but the national party has shied away from any major push. “Democrats are fearful of the gun issue,” West said. Sarah Brady said that when she and her husband visit Washington, “we want to shore up the Democrats first. When you go and visit with members of Congress, a lot of them know it’s the right thing to do, but they don’t want to face voting for it.” Not only is there pressure from constituents, there’s also the opposition of well-financed gun-rights groups that work to defeat lawmakers who favor gun control. “The NRA and other gunrights organizations are incredibly entrenched and have a powerful structure able to raise a great deal of money for lobbying and electoral politics. There’s no indication, even with the Giffords shooting, that’s going to change,” said David Levinthal, spokesman for the Center for Responsive Politics, an independent group that tracks campaign spending. The center found “gun-rights groups favor Republicans with their cash, and give a whole lot more of it than gun-control supporters.” NRA officials didn’t respond to requests for comment. Gun-control backers say 2011 could be different, but their opponents expect little change.

Obama Continued from A1 “To be blunt, we went down that road in Iraq,” Obama said, adding that “regime change there took eight years, thousands of American and Iraqi lives, and nearly a trillion dollars. That is not something we can afford to repeat in Libya.” Speaking in the early evening from the National Defense University in Washington, Obama said he had made good on his promise to limit U.S. military involvement against Gadhafi’s forces — he did not use the word “war” to describe the action — and he laid out a more general philosophy for the use of force. But while Obama described a narrower role for the United States in a NATO-led operation in Libya, the U.S. military has been carrying out an expansive and increasingly potent air campaign to compel the Libyan army to turn against Gadhafi. The president said he was willing to act unilaterally to defend the nation and its core interests. But in other cases, he said, when the safety of Americans is not directly threatened but where action can be justified — in the case of genocide, humanitarian relief, regional security or economic interests — the United States should not act alone. His statements amounted both to a rationale for multilateralism and another critique of what he has all along characterized as the excessively unilateral tendencies of the administration of George W. Bush. “In such cases, we should not be afraid to act — but the burden of action should not be America’s alone,” Obama said. “Because contrary to the claims of some, American leadership is not simply a matter of going it alone and bearing all of the burden ourselves. Real leadership creates the conditions and coalitions for others to step up as well; to work with allies and partners so that they bear their share of the burden and pay their share of the costs; and to see that the principles of justice and human dignity are upheld by all.”

THE BULLETIN • Tuesday, March 29, 2011 A5 Obama never mentioned many of the other nations going through upheaval across the Arab world, including Yemen, Syria and Bahrain, but left little doubt that his decision to send the U.S. military into action in Libya was the product of a confluence of particular circumstances and opportunities. He did not say how the intervention in Libya would end but said the United States and its allies would seek to drive Gadhafi from power by means other than military force if necessary. Speaking for 28 minutes, Obama addressed a number of audiences. To the U.S. public, he tried to offer reassurance that the United States was not getting involved in another openended commitment in a place that few Americans had spent much time thinking about. To the democracy protesters across the Middle East, he vowed that the United States would stand by them, even as he said that “progress will be uneven, and change will come differently in different countries,” a partial acknowledgment that complex relations between the United States and different Arab countries may make for different U.S. responses in different countries. “The United States will not be able to dictate the pace and scope of this change,” Obama said. “But, he added, “I believe that this movement of change cannot be turned back, and that we must stand alongside those who believe in the same core principles that have guided us through many storms: our opposition to violence directed against one’s own citizens; our support for a set of universal rights, including the freedom for people to express themselves and choose their leaders; our support for governments that are ultimately responsive to the aspirations of the people.”

The president’s remarks were timed to coincide with the formal handover of control over the Libya campaign to NATO, scheduled for Wednesday. But in the wake of criticism from congressional representatives from both sides of the aisle that Obama overstepped his authority in ordering the strikes without first getting congressional approval — and the return of lawmakers to Washington after their spring recess — Obama had another audience: Congress. Obama said that he authorized the military action only “after consulting the bipartisan leadership of Congress,” which White House officials have maintained is sufficient for what they have described as a limited military campaign. Whether his comments will do much to calm the criticism on Capitol Hill remains unclear. Some liberals remain unsettled by the fact of another war in a Muslim country, initiated by a Democratic president who first came to national prominence as an opponent of the Iraq war, even as others backed the use of force to avert a potential massacre. Some Republicans continued to criticize Obama for moving too slowly, while another strain of conservative thought argued that the intervention was overreach, a military action without a compelling national interest.

her for comforting him — Reagan would confess that he worried his note from a decade earlier may have offended her. Over the next few hours, two other nurses would take over the president’s care: Joanne Bell and Marisa Mize. While Bell monitored his machines and blood pressure, Mize held Reagan’s hand. At one point, she noticed that he was clutching at his breathing tube. While patting the president’s head and reassuring him it was all right to be scared, she persuaded him to relax and to let the machine breathe for him. Soon, Reagan began writing notes to Mize. “What does the future hold?” the president wrote at one point. Mize, 26, wasn’t quite sure what he meant, nor did she know how to answer. As she thought about how to respond, Reagan scribbled, “Will I be able to do ranch work, ride, etc.?” “Give yourself three months,” Mize told him, “and you’ll be able to do those things again.” Other notes were funny. By about 3 a.m., just over 12 hours after he had been shot, the breathing tube was removed, and Reagan held court for an hour or so, bantering and cracking jokes with a small crowd of doctors and nurses, and his first words were: “What was that guy’s beef?”

‘Shut up and go to sleep’ An hour later, Bell grew worried that the president wasn’t getting his rest. Deciding it was time to intervene, the no-nonsense nurse placed a wet washcloth over his eyes. “In the most polite way I know how,” she told Reagan, “I’m putting this cover over your eyes, and I want you to shut up and go to sleep.” A few months after the shooting, Reagan began trying to track down the nurses who had comforted him through the difficult night. One afternoon, Mize received a call from the White House, and before long she was on the phone with the president. “You were the one who told me it was okay to be scared and that you wouldn’t leave me,” Reagan said. “Nancy thanks you. God bless you.” Years later, Nancy Reagan was touring a different hospital where Mize happened to be working. Mize approached the first lady but barely get out an introduction before she was enveloped in a tight hug. “I know who you are, Marisa Mize,” Nancy Reagan said.

Esther Continued from A1 Esther’s day had been full of firsts: first airplane ride, first view of an airport terminal full of televisions, first ride on an escalator in Amsterdam, first chance to sip from a public drinking fountain that was safe to use. “God has truly smiled on this little girl,” Charlie Brewer said. “Everything came together just right.” It took an orphanage to save Esther from the streets of Uganda. “I can’t begin to tell you how excited everyone at the orphanage is about Esther’s adoption,” said Prineville resident Kathy Vaughn, who operates the Redeemer House Orphanage in Uganda that took Esther in when she was 7. “The kids are all so happy for her, and it gives them hope that they, too, will someday have a family,” Vaughn said. It took a mission trip to that same orphanage by Charlie and Jenay Brewer, of Powell Butte, to find her a year ago. “I knew the afternoon that I met her that she was my kid,” Charlie Brewer said in an interview in January.

Middlekauff Continued from A1 According to the prosecution, Brenda Middlekauff was last seen on July 19, 2002, at Jake’s Diner with Middlekauff. “She was upset and crying,” Gunnels said. “Their relationship was obviously in trouble.” According to testimony Gunnels repeated during his closing argument, Middlekauff was seen driving back to the house from the burial site three days after Brenda Middlekauff’s disappearance. He was, according to a neighbor’s testimony, red-faced and agitated. Gunnels also pointed to changing stories Middlekauff gave for his wife’s disappearance. On various occasions, he told people his wife was unhappy with work, that she left him for a woman named Barb, that she went to Disneyland, went to visit her family, that a man named David picked her up after a fight, and that men with guns came into the home and took her away. In his closing, Gunnels noted the bedding found in the metal drum with Brenda Middlekauff’s remains was the same as that found in the couple’s home, and that in letters and phone conversations Middlekauff revealed knowledge of the crime — like the caliber of the handgun used to kill Brenda Middlekauff — that was never publicly released. “The defendant can’t keep his lies straight,” Gunnels said. “Each time he’s caught in a lie, he creates a new lie or a new set of lies to try to protect himself.” Darrell Middlekauff’s defense attorney, Duane McCabe, told the judge that the state’s evidence wasn’t enough to convict Middlekauff on the various counts. “What the state is asking you to do is to speculate, to engage in guesswork,” he said. In his closing, McCabe said there was no evidence that Brenda Middlekauff’s murder was aggravated — that no physical evidence showed she was sexually abused or tortured in the course of her death, as the prosecution argued. McCabe told the judge the reason Middlekauff wrote letters alleging involvement in his wife’s murder was that he distrusted police. “There is evidence that he’s been involved with the system for many years,” McCabe said. “He had a great distrust for the system. He had no goodwill for the police. ... That ill will that he harbors forced him to lash out. That is the purpose of those letters.” Instead, McCabe said, Middlekauff gained knowledge of the murder through rumors and information in newspaper articles. He laid out reasons to doubt other evidence as well, including the lack of blood or other evidence found in searches of the Middlekauff home and the unreliability of some who testified. “The state has produced a great number of witnesses, a lot of photos, phone calls, letters. But what they haven’t produced is any physical evidence,” McCabe said. “The state has shown he was not a nice man, that he used bad language, that he said some bad things. But they haven’t proven a motive. ... They haven’t proven he killed Brenda Middlekauff.” Tiktin plans to make a decision next week, likely after April 5. Sheila G.

The adoption required seemingly unending paperwork and frustratingly lengthy court proceedings. “I thought about adoption the moment I heard her story,” Charlie Brewer said. “It tore me apart.” Only parts of the story exist. A life filled with poverty, abandonment and abuse. When Esther’s first father died shortly after her birth, her mother remarried and Esther was abandoned. Just starting the process took time and money and love, and it took more of the same to keep it going. In the moments before Esther arrived in the airport, Jenay Brewer said she was “both excited and nervous.”

C OV ER S T OR I ES “It was just like going into labor,” she said. “There’s the curiosity of how this is going to go and how are we going to feel. It’s obviously going to be different than with our birth children, because we lost nine years with her, but it’s also going to be awesome.” Although she speaks English, Esther didn’t say much as people flooded her with greetings and questions. She just smiled. She didn’t look scared; she looked ready. Esther wrote down two life goals when she moved into the orphanage: to move to America and to become a teacher. One down, one to go.

EBay, synonymous with secondhand wares, is seeking a new retail identity. In an effort to propel itself into the business of filling orders for large retailers, eBay has agreed to buy GSI Commerce, an online services company, for $2.4 billion. The acquisition, announced Monday, shows how the 16year-old eBay is taking on rivals like Amazon.com while trying to thwart upstarts like Groupon. With GSI, eBay can expand beyond its network of small power sellers to connect with large retailers. GSI helps manage the websites and online marketing campaigns for Toys R Us, Aeropostale and Kenneth Cole, among others, and its services include payment processing, order management and customer service. GSI’s seven warehouses, for example, can stock a retailer’s merchandise and ship and track products.

Central Oregon isn’t Green Acres, but like Eddie Albert, star of the 1960s back-to-the farm sitcom, John Regan gave up a corporate career and city life in New York City and San Francisco for the country life near Tumalo, where he raises Irish setters and founded Orion’s Choice premium dog food company. After rising to the heights of the corporate world as a senior vice president of corporate lending for Wells Fargo, Regan said he was drawn to Central Oregon several years ago to pursue his passion for fly fishing on the Metolius River, which he says is a “world-class” river for trout fishing.

John Regan founded Orion’s Choice premium dog food because he couldn’t find a brandname dog food with the quality of ingredients he wanted to feed the Irish setters he breeds at his farm in Tumalo.

After numerous fly-fishing trips, he quit his job and moved, first to Camp Sherman about four years ago, then in 2009 to the 17-acre farm between Tumalo and Sisters where he and his wife, Brooke, are raising two children and about a dozen Irish Setters. His dream is to restore the red dogs’ bloodline with Langford Irish setters from counties in Ireland, where his family’s roots run deep. One of his male breeding dogs is named Sligo, for the county in Ireland where his father’s family came from, and a female breeder is called Tara, for the county in Ireland where his mother’s family is from, Regan said.

Consumer spending exceeds expectations WASHINGTON — Americans increased spending more than forecast in February as incomes climbed, easing concern that rising food and fuel costs might derail the consumer demand that makes up 70 percent of the economy. Purchases increased 0.7 percent, the most since October, after advancing 0.3 percent the prior month, Commerce Department figures showed Monday in Washington. Another report showed the number of contracts to buy previously owned homes advanced for the first time in three months. More than half the gain in spending last month reflected higher prices, one reason it will be difficult for households to contribute as much to economic growth this quarter as last. At the same time, the U.S. economy added jobs for the sixth consecutive month in February and the unemployment rate fell to the lowest level since April 2009, helping cushion the blow from a pickup in inflation. — From wire reports

& David files for Ch. 11 By Nathaniel Popper Los Angeles Times

NEW YORK — Crippled by debt piled upon it by its Wall Street owners, storied Oregon fruit company Harry & David has filed for bankruptcy protection. The filing Monday in Delaware bankruptcy court had been widely expected after the troubled firm — known for its Moose Munch candied popcorn and pricey fruit baskets — missed a $7 million interest payment earlier this month. Weak sales during the critical holiday season hurt Harry & David, as consumers still smarting from the economic downturn shunned luxuries such as the company’s famed pears, which retail for about $4 each. Increased competition from gourmet food stores and high-end supermarkets further cut into sales. But some analysts said the mountain of debt put onto the century-old company as part of its 2004 buyout by New York private equity firm Wasserstein & Co. proved the difference, giving Harry & David no room to maneuver during tough times.

Facebook is hoping to do something better and faster than any other technology startup-turnedInternet superpower. Befriend Washington. Facebook has layered its executive, legal, policy and communications ranks with high-powered politicos from both parties, beefing up its firepower for future battles in Washington and beyond. There’s Sheryl Sandberg, the former Clinton administration who is chief operating officer, and Ted Ullyot, a former clerk for Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, who is general counsel, among others. The latest candidate is Robert Gibbs, President Barack Obama’s former White House press secretary, whom Facebook is trying to lure to its communications team. With good reason, political and legal analysts say. Barely seven years after it was born in a Harvard dorm room, Facebook, as much as any other company, is redefining the notion of privacy and transforming communications, media and advertising in the Internet age. While the company has come under fire for a series of privacy stumbles, it largely remains a darling of politicians — even earning a glowing mention in the State of the Union. See Facebook / B5

Regulators to set rules on mortgage securitizations

Banks will be forced to retain some risk when they securitize all but the most conservative mortgages under rules that regulators are expected to vote on today. But the banks are likely to be given wide leeway in determining what risks to keep.

Major banks, hoping to revive the mortgage securitization market that crumbled when many securitizations proved to be anything but safe, had asked regulators to define almost any mortgage — except for the most extreme types no longer being written anyway — as a “qualified residential mortgage.” But a summary of the proposal, provided to The New York

Times and other outlets Monday night by a person briefed on the decision, showed that the regulators rejected that advice and decided that only the most conservative mortgages would qualify. Securitizations of any other mortgages would require the banks to retain “skin in the game” of at least 5 percent of the risk. Banks, however, did get regulators to

agree to a broad definition of how that risk can be retained, as well as of who will have to retain it. Before the credit crisis erupted, many mortgages were sold by banks in securitizations, and most of the securities were rated AAA because widespread defaults were deemed almost unthinkable.

quality of loans by forcing them to retain a stake. Under the proposed rule, mortgages to buy homes will require buyers to put down at least 20 percent if banks want to securitize the loan without retaining a stake. Loans to refinance mortgages would not qualify unless the new loan was for no more than 75 percent of the value of the property, or 70 percent if the refinancing enabled the borrower to take out cash.

T F With HTML5, no application is an island Looming battle

By Steve Lohr New York Times News Service

The Web is poised for a comeback. How’s that? Isn’t the Web already the crucial utility of online commerce, information and entertainment? In many ways, it certainly is. The Web’s importance is indisputable — but there are signs that it is slipping. Investment, innovation and energy have been shifting elsewhere in computing — mainly, to shopping, gaming and news applications for smartphones and tablet computers. These applications often tap into websites for information on all manner of things. But they do not reside on the open Web and cannot be searched and linked to one another in the same way Web applications can. Think of the apps tailored for Apple’s iPhones and iPads, or those made for Google’s Android operating system. Social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter have similar characteristics, as walled gardens that are connected to the open Web but are separate from it. This is the trend that Wired magazine described last September, under an intentionally exaggerated headline: “The Web Is Dead.” And Tim Berners-Lee, the Web’s creator, issued a warning in the December issue of Scientific American. “The Web as we know it,” he wrote, “is being threatened.” The danger, he added, is that “the Web could be broken into fragmented islands.”

‘The next big step’ But the Web’s fortunes may soon brighten remarkably. The scenario relies on a collection of technologies, already years in development, that is starting to make its way into the mainstream of computing. HTML5 is the geeky umbrella term for this as-

semblage. (It’s the fifth generation of HyperText Markup Language, which is the way Web pages are written in code.) Engineers say the technology will make it possible to write Web applications, accessed with a browser, that are as visually rich and lively as the so-called native applications that are now designed to run on a specific device, like an iPad or an Android-based tablet. The Web browsing software that is needed to bring HTML5 to life has recently arrived. Last week, Mozilla, the maker of Firefox, released the newest version of its browser, showing off its support for the new technology. A week earlier, Microsoft brought out its new Internet Explorer tuned to run HTML5. The Safari brower from Apple, meanwhile, also supports the new technology, and the company has particularly embraced HTML5’s videoplaying feature as an alternative to Adobe’s Flash player. And

the Chrome browser team from Google has long been a leader in HTML5 development. The technology, by all accounts, is an innovative achievement. HTML5 represents the “next big step in the progress of the Web,” says Jeffrey Jaffe, chief executive of the World Wide Web Consortium, which guides the development of technical standards. Paul Mercer, a veteran Silicon Valley software designer, says the technology will make it possible to “achieve the dream of expressive, interactive applications on the Web that are Cupertino-class,” a reference to the headquarters of Apple, where Mercer worked for years.

Business implications There are also potentially sweeping business implications, executives and investors say. The technology could alter the playing field in the emerging market

What you see is what you get on eye-tracking laptops By Anne Eisenberg New York Times News Service

On a handful of prototype PCs, your look is your command. There’s no more fiddling with the mouse on these computers. Just look at a particular location on the screen, and the cursor goes there instantly, ready for you to open a folder or to send an e-mail (at which point you need to use old-fashioned keys). The laptops were created by Tobii Technology, an eye-tracking company based in Sweden, and Lenovo, the Chinese computer maker. The two combined forces to build 20 prototypes that show off the technology’s potential. No special headsets or goggles are needed. The eye tracker is built into the laptop lid, complete with sensors, lights and processing capabilities. I tried out one of the new PCs and, indeed, found that eye contact made for a speedy interface. I could choose a spot on a map just by looking at it, touch a key to zoom in, and then “walk around” the map by eye, looking toward the top of the screen to travel north, or down to pan south. Folders could also be chosen with a glance — the cursor seemed to arrive at my intended spot the instant I looked. The eye-control feature was a natural for playing games, too: I blocked asteroids menacing the Earth with an annihilating look and a keyboard click, giving new meaning to the term “dead-eyed.” The PCs are demonstration models. Actual products won’t be on the shelf for about two years, said Barbara Barclay, an executive at Tobii.

Potential applications If the technology catches on, PCs won’t be the only products with built-in gaze control, people in the field say. In the future, when you are looking at villains and princesses on a video game player, they will be able to stare directly back into your eyes. And televisions are also getting in on the act. Roel Vertegaal, director of

the human media lab at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario, which researches new user technologies, has designed TVs with built-in eye tracking so that the TV pauses when you leave the room and resumes when you return. The eye-tracking technology is a genuine time-saver for typing, roughly halving the time needed for many chores, Vertegaal said. “We’ve done experiments,” he said — for example, when people are working on several screens, any of which can be activated with a glance. “It’s clear you can speed up interactions by a factor of two.” It is also easier on human hands that are prone to repetitive stress injury, he said, as they will give computer users some rest from using the mouse. The PCs look like ordinary large laptops, but with a slight bulge at the back for the eye tracker. When you lift the lid and turn the computer on, the tracker starts operating directly beneath the monitor. In it are lights that illuminate the pupil, and optical sensors that pick up the reflection of light hitting the cornea. Computer chips use the sensor data to calculate where your eyes are looking, directing the cursor there. Barclay said a gaze could pinpoint a screen area roughly the size of a dime.

A consumer novelty Eye-tracking technology for computers isn’t new, said Andrew Duchowski, a professor of computer science at Clemson University in South Carolina and author of the book “Eye Tracking Methodology.” Stand-alone eye trackers from Tobii and others can be connected to computers, for example, so that quadriplegics can operate an onscreen keyboard. The work can be done entirely by sight, but it is a slow process, as the gaze must rest or dwell for a quarter- or a half-second before the keystroke is registered.

Tobii Technology via New York Times News Service

A laptop made by Tobii Technology and Lenovo contains technology in the lid that allows users to guide the cursor just by looking at the screen. “But embedding eye tracking inside a laptop lid is a novelty,” he said, especially if it can be done at consumer-friendly prices. High-performance eye trackers typically cost tens of thousands of dollars, although John Elvesjo, chief technology officer at Tobii, said the price for its built-in trackers was likely to be far less once they were in mass production. Michael Holmes, a professor of communication studies at Ball State University in Muncie, Ind., said the new eye-tracking PCs would benefit people with limited mobility in their limbs. “The present systems they typically use are expensive,” he said. “Anything that reduces the cost and complexity will benefit them, and is important work.” The Tobii-Lenovo PC must be calibrated for each individual. Before using it, you look at locations on the screen for about 15 seconds while the computer and cameras determine your eye measurements. Consumers, of course, might be afraid that a casual glance could prompt an unintended action. The fear is that “you could look at the ‘send’ button on the credit card webpage,” Vertegaal said, “and end up accidentally buying something.” That won’t happen with the Tobii-Lenovo computers, Barclay said. “You point with your eyes,” she said, “but you haven’t selected until you confirm with a click.”

for digital media and mobile applications, creating new market opportunities. “Right now, we’re in a native apps world,” says John Lilly, a venture partner at Greylock Partners, a venture capital firm in Silicon Valley. “But people are underestimating the power of the Web. I think we’re going to see an explosion of Web-based apps over the next couple of years.” Indeed, startup companies like Zite and Flipboard present media content in magazine-style pages on the iPad, using HTML5. The free software from Flipboard, for example, taps a user’s online social networks for reading recommendations. Flipboard is also working with publishers, offering them tools for automating the display of pages on the iPad. “You’re seeing this increasing move to HTML5 among publishers,” says Mike McCue, the company’s CEO. In theory, the technology could

give publishers a powerful counterweight to Apple, the early dominant distributor of paid media content. Apple has leading devices in the iPhone and iPad, and media companies use its software to tailor their content for them. And the company’s App Store is the hub for retail distribution online. Publishers flinched, though, when Apple announced in February the terms for digital newspaper and magazine subscriptions sold through its App Store: Apple will get a 30 percent cut and the customer information, unless a subscriber agrees to pass some of that data on to a publisher. The 30 percent is the same that Apple collects on music and games sold through its store. Publishers had been pushing for better terms and sharing of customer information, because they would be selling continuing subscriptions instead of one-time transactions, like an individual song or an album.

Most major publishers are experimenting with HTML5 today. Yet even if HTML5 allows publishers to make applications that shine on the iPad without Apple’s software, the distribution power of Apple won’t necessarily decline. The company could still end up running the leading marketplace in online publishing sales if the iPad remains the runaway leader in tablet computing — just as the popularity of iPod music players has reinforced sales at the company’s music store. So far, publishers mostly plan to use the new technology to streamline digital development, thereby cutting costs. Ideally, they say, HTML5 would be the main technology used for all mobile programs, with some tweaking of applications on each device. “If HTML5 lives up to its promise, that would make my life easier,” says Joe Simon, chief technology officer at Conde Nast. The publisher has built dozens of iPhone and iPad applications in recent months for its 18 magazines, and will soon introduce Android applications for the Motorola Xoom for The New Yorker and Wired. The rivalry between the worlds of the Web and native applications, analysts say, is set to play out over the next couple of years. There are strong advocates in each camp, even within companies. Google, for example, straddles the two worlds, with its Android team as well as its developers of HTML5 technology. Sundar Pichai, vice president for product management for Google’s Chrome browser, is betting on the triumph of HTML5. “In the mobile world, the dominant model is native apps,” Pichai concedes, but he adds that the real competition is just beginning. “As these ecosystems evolve,” he says, “I think the incredible advantages of the Web will prevail.”

Bankruptcy

began in 1910, when an entrepreneur named Samuel Rosenberg traded his Seattle hotel for orchards in southern Oregon that grew the distinctive red and green Comice pears. After his sons, Harry and David Holmes, took over, they began marketing the pears as high-end gifts and sold them to affluent city folk. Based in Medford, the company prospered. The family sold the firm to RJR Nabisco in 1986. It changed hands a few more times before being purchased by Wasserstein & Co. in 2004 for $253.9 million. The firm, founded by the late New York buyout king Bruce Wasserstein, financed the deal by issuing $250 million in bonds — using some of the proceeds to pay itself back all of the cash it put up to buy the company. “All of the Wasserstein original investors got their money out of it and left Medford with a shell of a company with gigantic debt,” said Charles Jaeger, a professor at Medford’s Southern Oregon University business school. “They handled it in their typical greedy Wall Street way.” The interest payments on the debt have been staggering. In the first half of its current fiscal year, Harry & David posted $6.2 million in operating profits, but its debt service totaled $10.9 million.

Continued from B1 “There’s no doubt that the debt payments are a huge factor,” said Renee Fellman, an Oregon turnaround expert who has been following the company. “On top of that, they have had declining margins, increasing competition and many reports of bad customer service.” Under Chapter 11 protection, Harry & David will continue sending out its fruit boxes and operating its 70 retail stores. The company’s bondholders, including Wells Fargo, will convert the $200 million in debt they hold into equity and will become the new owners. As part of the deal, Harry & David will receive $155 million in loans from its current creditors, including UBS and Ally Financial, to fund operations. Those creditors will also provide as much as $100 million to help the company exit bankruptcy. Chief Executive Kay Hong, appointed by the company’s board last month, said Monday that the bankruptcy restructuring will allow Harry & David to “strengthen its operations and create long-term value, while continuing to provide customers with the highest quality products and service.” The story of Harry & David

Facebook declined to comment on its conversations with Gibbs, who is considering a position in Silicon Valley, not Washington. The company said it understood the importance of having a Washington presence, mainly so it could explain its social networking service and its many features and privacy policies to lawmakers and regulators. But it played down the importance of having connections to both sides of the political spectrum. Still, some privacy advocates are fretting over Facebook’s new hires. These critics say the company’s growing Washington connections will dampen reasonable criticisms about some Facebook policies.

Continued from B1 But Facebook has watched the missteps of Microsoft and Google in Washington, and knows that its current skirmishes are merely a prelude to looming clashes over its influence on the economic and social Web. And so it is building a stalwart defense, moving at broadband speed from start-up to realpolitik strategist. “Information is the gold or the oil of the economy in the information age,” said Paul M. Schwartz, a law professor and expert in information technology at the law school at the University of California, Berkeley.

Dog food

Medicine to identify canine nutritional needs. When he was unable to find any name-brand dog foods containing all of the essential nutrients required by canines, Regan decided to form his own dog food company in Tumalo called Orion’s Choice. “It’s the love of the dogs that led me to the dog food business,” Regan said. After four years researching animal nutrition and then selecting a premium dog food manufacturing company, Regan is producing two blends of premium dog food containing more protein, cooked grains and other nutritious ingredients, and less cheap filler, Regan said. To keep Orion’s Choice dog food affordable, he has cut out the middle man, taking orders directly over the phone and Internet, and delivering directly to his customers in Central Oregon for $33 for a 40-pound bag

Continued from B1 He said the Langford breed of Irish setters he raises are calm, intelligent, well-mannered dogs — not like the flighty, highstrung product of 1960s and 1970s overbreeding that caused the breed to lose favor among dog owners. “They are wonderful dogs if you get the right dogs and the right breed,” Regan said. During his 23-year career in banking, Regan said he learned that research was one of the keys to success, and when he set out to restore the Irish setter bloodlines in America, he studied the characteristics of different bloodlines, as well as the nutritional needs of canines. In doing that nutritional research, Regan said he worked with experts at the Oregon State University College of Veterinary

Max Muscle

THE BULLETIN • Tuesday, March 29, 2011 B5

It may sound kind of corny, but I just believe in being fair, try to be true to your word, and when you say something, it’s truthful, and there’s substance to it. I’m a pretty simple guy. It’s not complicated. I think most everybody should be that way. But … that’s basically it. Treat people the way you want to be treated.

Continued from B1 Wilcox told The Bulletin about nutrition, exercise and Max Muscle products.

Q: A:

Describe some of the products on the shelves. There are what I call the essential six products. … (They are) Maxpro Protein, Vit-Acell liquid multivitamin, glutamine — which is all about recovery — and flaxseed oil. … And then there’s Green Synergy, which is a fruit and vegetable supplement. Then there’s Gourmet, which is a meal replacement.

Q: A:

I see you’ve come with a bottle of pink liquid. What is that? This is just a cocktail that I have. It’s branchedchain amino acids. It’s called Pro BCAA that we sell. I’m just flushing my body all day with branched-chain amino acids, which is the building blocks of protein. And you’ve got to drink water every day, right? You’ve got to drink at least two liters of water every day. At least that’s what I tell people. And water gets kind of water sometimes. So this is a great way to flavor it up and not be harming your body. … This is watermelon (flavor).

You have passion about these products, and you believe in them quite deeply. Do you have any other things you believe in deeply? I believe strongly in taking care of our customers, be authentic — no smoke and mirrors — say what you mean, mean what you say. Of course, I’m a strong advocate of family. I’ve been married to the same woman for 33 years, been with her for 35 years. …

All of this sounds good. What I want to know is, could a person do that for cheap? When someone tells me that … my natural response is to them, what’s your

of his Choice Chicken and Rice Formula, or $34 for Pork and Rice Formula, which both also contain oatmeal, alfalfa, salmon meal, eggs, sweet potato flour, pumpkin meal and flaxseed meal. “With more fat and protein than the Chicken and Rice Formula, Orion’s Choice Pork and Rice Formula is nutritious for active dogs and puppies,” Regan said. He said the blend of ingredients in both of his dog foods provide essential Omega-3 fatty acids in the form of salmon meal. “That’s important, because puppies can only get the Omega-3 DHA from fish, he said. With the region still plagued by a sluggish economy and some of the highest unemployment rates in the state, Regan said he wanted to help out by providing the most nutritious dog food at the lowest possible cost.

health worth? Because … lose your health — what do you have? I always tell people when they come into my store, If you’ve got the nicest car on the block, the biggest bank account and the nicest house, what does all that mean if you don’t have your health? It means absolutely nothing. It’s just a priority, is all it is. … I see people every day that spend $400, $500 a month on lattes and beer and cigarettes, and all they’re doing is destroying their body. If you were to give away the cigarettes, the drinking and the lattes. … You can maintain what I’m talking about on a regular basis for $100 a month. Now, is that worth it? Absolutely, in my opinion. Is it worth it to somebody else? Well, if their priorities are a little bit different, maybe it isn’t. But when they get older, it will become more of a priority. They’ll start understanding that maybe I should start taking care of myself a little bit more. …

You’re in great shape at 53. What are you doing

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

when you work out? How often do you work out? I jog at home every morning five days a week on my treadmill, generally about 25 to 30 minutes. And then I’m in the weight room four days a week, and I just train different body parts. … I’ve been doing that consistently for … about 12 years, actually.

Q: A:

What do you aim to do with your business in the future? The goal is to … stay at five stores. We own the region, so now we’re the regional developer of Oregon. … Right now it’s just to create a solid foundation with what we have now, and keep our eyes open for opportunity in the future. … My son is looking at the San Diego region right now, and that may be something that we’re going to be expanding into over the next six months.

“Most name-brand pet foods change hands four or five times before they reach the consumer, and each time it changes hands it adds to the end price,” Regan said. “The dog food companies wouldn’t change, so I created a local company,” he said. Now, instead of working and living in New York City or San Francisco and commuting to Central Oregon to go fly fishing, Regan said he is running a oneman company and he can go fly fishing every day in season, and gets to walk his dogs and enjoy the country life 365 days a year. “I really like being my own boss,” Regan said. “I get to do the financing, marketing, bookkeeping and I get to meet my customers face to face when I make the deliveries.”

The Bulletin

Betsy Q. Cliff can be reached at 541-383-0375 or bcliff@bendbulletin.com.

Correction A story headlined “Program acquires fourplex to aid area’s homeless vets” on page C1 on Saturday, March 26, 2011, contained incorrect information on the Central Oregon Veterans Outreach. The group does not manage a fourplex in Redmond but has an agreement with Housing Works to provide case management services for a fourplex that Housing Works is acquiring when it becomes available. Also, the Veterans Administration is not considering revising rules on dishonorable discharge limitations for VA services because that involves changing federal law. The Bulletin regrets the errors.

By Betsy Q. Cliff Health officials now say a spate of meningococcal infections that killed a Deschutes County infant and sickened two Crook County men are unlikely related. The results of tests late last week showed the strain that killed the infant was different from the strain that sickened the men in Crook County. Health officials said “People the proximof the cases shouldn’t ity was likely panic just coincidence. People “feel because like they must there was be connected because it’s so a small close. The labocluster ratory says no way,” said Dr. of more Cieslak, dramatic Paul manager of the cases.” state’s infectious disease — Dr. John program. Chunn, Meningococinfectious cal disease is a rare but serious disease illness caused specialist, by a bacteria. Central T h o u g h Oregon many carry the Pediatric bacteria, when Associates it invades the bloodstream, it can infect the body, causing brain damage or death. Cieslak said the infant contracted the B strain of the disease; the Crook County cases were both C strain. C strain is preventable with a vaccine but B strain is not. The vaccine is recommended for adolescents, college freshmen, some military personnel and people with medical conditions that raise their risk. The first known Central Oregon case this year was 16-year old Colbey Cloutier, who went home from a Portland hospital last week. He is facing months of therapy and is unlikely to return to school this year. The second case, 24-year-old Michael Hodnett, is still hospitalized at St. Charles Bend. He was transferred out of the intensive care unit Sunday, said his grandmother, Louise Carter, and appears to be doing better. The cases have gotten a lot of attention because they were so severe, said Dr. John Chunn, an infectious disease specialist at Central Oregon Pediatric Associates. Chunn said Central Oregon had three cases last year as well. “People shouldn’t panic just because there was a small cluster of more dramatic cases.”

Use three photos to tell one story Triptychs give you a chance to show a single scene in multiple ways By Pete Erickson The Bulletin

My favorite season in eastern Iowa was summertime. The best part about the summers — besides shooting stories on the Mississippi River and thinking of Mark Twain — was enjoying the heat while sipping a cold Leinenkugel beer and munching on a bratwurst with sauerkraut. This was my triptych experience of a northern Midwest summer. A photographic triptych uses three photos to tell one story. Instead of heat, beer and brat, you can break it down into an overall photo, a medium photo and a detail photo. The overall is the scene setter, like the heat of the summer on a balcony overlooking the Mississippi River. A medium shot tells a smaller story, separate but linked to the whole, maybe your friends laughing together. The detail shot is of something specific, a tight shot of a smiling face. The detail helps the other photographs but is only occasionally seen on its own. People usually use a wide-angle lens to get the overall, a medium or slightly wide lens to do the medium shot, and a macro or telephoto lens to do the detail shot. I sometimes do the opposite with the lenses; it gives a different look to a series of pictures. When you’re out doing pictures, think of more than one way to see and shoot the photo. Think wide, tight, horizontal and vertical for your photos. Think, too, of how your photos might look when put together. Go back repeatedly to your favorite places, or with your favorite people, and take pictures. Eventually you’ll come up with three photos to show the place and/or the people to perfection. It took me a year to be able to pronounce Leinenkugal properly, so don’t expect to be a triptych expert the first time out. Taking tons of pictures is the best way to get better.

ASSIGNMENT Learn to invade people’s space with a camera. This is the secret of photojournalists everywhere, and it takes a long time to be comfortable with. Put some tape on your zoom lens to fix the focal length, then move in close for the detail and back up for the overall. Go to your favorite place once a month for three months. Shoot overalls, mediums, details, verticals and horizontals, then pick three to show at the end.

Attention, photographers! Submit your own photos at www.bendbulletin.com/wellshot and we’ll pick the best triptychs for publication next week in this space. No doctored photos, please!

SALEM — Two years ago, when the Legislature put a controversial kibosh on two plans to put destination resorts in or near the Metolius River Basin, it also handed the two resort development groups a consolation prize. Two years later, the bill IN THE intended to LEGISLATURE provide the would-be developers with a financial benefit — Inside called House • Information Bill 2228 — on House doesn’t look all Bill 3572, that generous. Page C5 It provided the two groups a three-year window to build an environmentally sensitive resort elsewhere in Oregon, on land where such a development wouldn’t normally be allowed. Jim Kean, who was the most visible proponent of the push to put an “eco-resort” in the basin, said the biggest weakness of the bill was providing only “three years to try to do something in absolutely the worst economy since the Great Depression.” See Resorts / C5

City to start salary talks with public safety unions Moonset on Smith Rock gives a photographer opportunity for creativity.

When putting pictures together for a triptych, I always try for one opposite — in this case, a vertical shot to balance two horizontals. The red of the climber’s shirt carries over to the red in the other two photographs. This is Dominic Kehoe, 26, from Olympia Wash., leading the way up Wartley’s Revenge.

Bend’s police and firefighter unions will enter into salary negotiations with the city this week to determine whether public safety employees will receive pay increases in the coming year. While the unions are still under contract until June 2012, provisions in the Bend Police and Firefight- “We are ers associa- wanting to tions collective b a r g a i n i n g realize the a g r e e m e n t s goal that call for opening new salary council has d i s c u s s i o n s set for us this spring.

ODOT extends studded tire season The Oregon Department of Transportation is extending the studded tire season through Monday, because the weather is expected to create â&#x20AC;&#x153;difficult driving conditionsâ&#x20AC;? in some snow zones over the weekend. The new deadline is 12:01 a.m. Tuesday April 5. The state agency encourages drivers to consider traction tires or chains as an alternative to studded tires, which cause at least $40 million damage annually to city streets, county roads and state highways. Driving with studded tires on your vehicle past the deadline in Oregon is a Class C traffic violation, which carries a minimum $190 fine.

O Ranchers seek right to kill wolves Corvallis-area caterer favors foods grown in Willamette Valley By Jeff Barnard

The Associated Press

GRANTS PASS — As wolves spread through Oregon from Idaho, ranchers are trying to get the right to shoot wolves they see attacking livestock, and to get the state to pay for cattle and sheep that are killed by wolves. The batch of wolf bills being heard by a House committee in Salem on Wednesday includes one that would make it easier to take wolves off the state endangered species list. O r e g o n IN THE C a t t l e m e n’s LEGISLATURE A ssociation President Bill Hoyt, a Cottage Grove rancher, said Monday that ranchers don’t want to wipe out wolves, but need the tools to defend their livestock. “I appears that the political and cultural will of the state of Oregon is to have wolves, and we have no problem with that,” he said. “We don’t want to kill every wolf that walks. We simply want to get along as well as we can. But if there is a conflict, we need to be able to defend ourselves.” Rob Klavins of Oregon Wild said conservation groups don’t oppose paying ranchers for wolf kills. But they see the other bills as an effort to get around the extensive public process that went into Oregon’s Wolf Management Plan, under which state and federal wildlife agents decide when and where to kill wolves. He added the bills would make it impossible to prevent poaching. “With less than 25 wolves in the state, now is not the time to make it any easier to kill them,”

Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife

Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife wolf coordinator Russ Morgan sits with a wolf recovering from anesthesia used in a radio-collaring procedure in northeastern Oregon in May 2009. The Oregon Cattlemen’s Association is pressing a set of bills in the Oregon Legislature to allow ranchers to shoot wolves attacking livestock and to compensate ranchers for sheep and cattle lost to wolves. he said from Portland. Extirpated in the early 20th century, wolves began moving back to Oregon in the 1990s from Idaho, where they were reintroduced by the federal government. They now number 23 known individuals in the northeastern corner of the state, said Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife spokeswoman Michelle Dennehy. State and federal wildlife agents have confirmed about 40 livestock kills since 2009. In most states, the federal government compensates ranchers

O B Woman fed teens marijuana, police say MEDFORD — A southern Oregon woman has been accused of feeding marijuana to her teenage children after an investigation into abuse allegations. The Oregon State Police said 4 5 -yea r- old Valery Lee Podsobi n sk i faces various charges, including applying a controlled substance to a minor, distribution of Valery Lee marijuana to a Podsobinski minor, assault and recklessly endangering another person. Police said Podsobinski, who lives in the Talent area, was arraigned last Thursday in Jackson County Circuit Court in Medford. A court clerk said Monday that no defense attorney had been listed yet for Podsobinski. State troopers said the investigation began in January. The alleged physical abuse involved assaults with belts, paddles, wooden spoons and spatulas.

Body recovered after fishing boat accident EUGENE — The body of an Oregon man has been recovered from the McKenzie River after a weekend boating accident while fishing with friends. The Register-Guard reports the victim was identified as 59year-old Warren Moran Jr. of Eugene. Lane County sheriff’s deputies say Moran and two other men were not wearing life jackets when their drift boat hit a submerged snag in the river and overturned near McNutt Island Saturday afternoon. Deputies said the boat was pinned on the bottom under about 5 feet of water in a strong current. The other two men, who have not been identified, were able to reach shore without serious injury. Moran’s body was recovered Sunday. The accident remains under investigation.

Volunteers search for boy missing since June PORTLAND — Volunteers turned out over the weekend in the latest search for Kyron Horman, who disappeared from his

CORVALLIS — Ask Kristy Krause what’s special about being a chef in the Willamette Valley, and she’s got a ready answer. “It’s the abundance of local food products,” she said. “It’s a mecca, and I’m here in the middle of it!” Krause is one of five chefs who work for Valley Catering, based in Adair Village. Krause, the head chef and kitchen manager, orders all the food for the operation. She describes herself as local, by way of the coast. She was born in Newport and graduated from Toledo High School. Her parents live on Yaquina Bay. “I’m a local, and I plan to stay here,” she said. Krause said one thing she likes about the catering business is that it’s always evolving. She noted that trends in food consumption are ever-changing.

elementary school in the Portland area last June. The Oregonian reports that about 130 volunteers and law enforcement employees searched an area near Northwest Dixie Mountain Road west of Portland, near North Plains. The boy’s parents are still trying to raise awareness about his case and recently held fundraisers for search efforts, including a roller derby in Medford on Saturday.

McMenamins pub robbed in Clackamas CLACKAMAS — Two armed robbers forced their way through the rear door of the McMenamins pub in Clackamas just before midnight Sunday and forced four employees and customers to the floor. The Clackamas County sheriff’s office says the robbers hit the safe and then escaped on foot. Deputies searched the area with dogs, but the two got away. No one was hurt.

for wolf kills, but not in Oregon, said Suzanne Stone of the Boise, Idaho, office of Defenders of Wildlife. Defenders will stop its compensation program Sept. 1. Stone said coyotes, cougars and bears account for far more livestock losses than wolves, but as the new predator on the block, wolves get more attention. Surveys show that compensating ranchers for livestock losses does not increase acceptance of wolves, but that without it ranchers would be more opposed. House Bill 3013 would direct

Little ad

the state Fish and Wildlife Commission to establish a compensation program for wolf kills. House Bill 3560 would give the state Board of Agriculture the same responsibility. House bill 3561 would reduce the goal for restoring wolves in Oregon to four breeding pairs statewide. House Bill 3562 would allow people to shoot a wolf attacking them or another person. House Bill 3563 would allow people to shoot wolves attacking livestock or dogs, and within 500 feet of the person’s home.

“Vegetarians, vegans — we cover it all,” she said, noting that the business has also prepared food for diabetics and those on gluten- or dairy-free diets. There is also a growing demand for locally sourced foods. Krause said she enjoys cooking almost anything. “I’m always on the lookout for something new — the latest flavor sensation,” she said. “I love almost anything Northwest or international. I find other people’s spices fascinating. We all have the same chickens and the same cows. It’s the spices that make it different.” A Valley favorite is smoky glazed salmon using a recipe she created. “It looks as pretty on a platter, and tastes almost as good as smoked salmon,” she said. Recipes featuring another iconic Oregon food, hazelnuts, include a chocolate-hazelnut flourless torte, and a hazelnut vinaigrette drizzled on blanched green beans.

Don’t penalize the ratepayers

ower bills for Pacific Power customers went up again in January. The estimate was a residential customer using 900 kilowatt-hours a month would pay about $9.38 more,

or an increase of 11.5 percent. The increases that rang in the new year were the third and fourth increases to Pacific Power bills in about a year. Why all the increases? You have the Oregon Legislature to thank for some of it. State law requires power companies to use more renewable energy to produce electricity. The state’s three largest utilities — Portland General Electric, PacifiCorp and the Eugene Water and Electric Board — must hit a 5 percent target this year, 15 percent in 2015, 20 percent in 2020, and 25 percent in 2025. Smaller utilities have to meet lower standards. There are good reasons to chase that green goal, but complying costs money. Pacific Power had planned to spend $8 million on two wind generation projects in Wyoming, another $3.9 million for hydro improvements, including enhancements for fish, and $2.3 million to upgrade steam turbines to make them cleaner and more efficient. It was going to spend another $29 million as an installment in a new north-south transmission line that will deliver more renewable power from Wyoming to Oregon. And there’s another way that state law costs money. State law declares hydropower is renewable energy. That means exactly what you think it means — except a few sentences later

the law essentially declares much Oregon hydro does not count toward renewable requirements. It’s renewable and it’s not. Oregon has a tremendous advantage in hydro. Oregon produced more kilowatt-hours of hydro power than any state but Washington, according to data released last year by the U.S. Energy Information Administration. In fact, hydro counts for nearly twothirds of state electricity generation. In better times, with persuasive lobbying from wind and solar advocates, lawmakers decided most older hydro projects should not count. We know hydropower comes with a price. Dams disrupt the flow of rivers and can hurt fish. But every power source has its own problems. Fields of solar panels disrupt views and break up habitat. Windmills slay birds and also disrupt views and break up habitat. Oregon still counts all solar farms and windmills, despite their problems. House Bill 2992 would change Oregon’s renewable requirements to truly count hydro as renewable. The Legislature should pass it. Let’s not penalize ratepayers because Oregon does hydro so well.

Consider the cost L

ike the folks at Bend-La Pine Schools, we’re all for full-day kindergarten. It’s a wonderful idea. Under other circumstances we’d be behind those in the Legislature who want to require school districts in Oregon to offer it. Not now, however. It’s hard to dispute the value of a full-day program for Oregon’s youngest public-school students. WestEd, a non-profit research, development and service agency that serves several Western states, looked at the available research several years ago. It found that children who attend kindergarten full-time are more likely to be ready for first grade, have higher academic achievement and better attendance in subsequent years, learn English better if they’re non-native speakers, gain socially and emotionally and cut education costs down the line because less money will have to be spent on remedial education. Subsequent studies continue to bear those findings out. Lawmakers propose to make fullday kindergarten a reality for all Oregon, and they’re well on the way to doing so. The Senate approved Senate Bill 248 by a 27-3 margin last week; the bill awaits action in the House of Representatives. It would require

school districts to offer free full-day kindergarten by 2015 and would double the amount it now pays for halfday kindergartners, putting them on equal footing with other students in the state’s public schools. That sounds pretty good, but there are problems. Most immediately, lawmakers are nearly certain to give schools less money for the coming biennium, and perhaps beyond, than they need to maintain the services they’re now offering. Requiring schools to add or expand programs before they can pay for what they have simply doesn’t make sense. Then there’s the added burden fullday kindergarten will mean for some school districts. At Bend-La Pine, officials say they have the space to expand kindergarten to a full-day program for all without having to spend beyond what they would receive from the state. But we also wonder if districts like Bend-La Pine would have to give up something else to offer the classes. Parents should know the trade-offs. We want legislators to find a way to pay for universal all-day kindergarten. Until they find the money, it should wait.

My Nickel’s Worth New DA, please We need a new district attorney for Deschutes County. He’s wasting our valuable taxpayer dollars and resources in pursuit of trivial violation of the law by going after county employees for releasing private information that should have been redacted. In order to press charges, common sense would dictate that these people violated the law with malicious intent. More than likely, they violated the law because they were not properly trained on Freedom of Information Act and Privacy Act laws as they pertain to personal identification information safeguards. This guy is bad for the county and needs to be dealt with swiftly. He made a bad first impression when he took office and decided to clean house; it looked more like retaliation than fiscal responsibility. How ironic that he can get into office on a Trojan horse boasting fiscal responsibility and then make a move like this? Any good officer of the court and street-smart law enforcement offices will tell you we need to aggressively pursue violent criminals and deal with minor violations of the law by gaining compliance with training and education. Let’s recall the man and look for more common sense! Dale B. Barrett Redmond

ated Press reports that Moore stated the demonstrators have “galvanized the nation against the wealthy elite.” Are the taxpayers of Wisconsin considered the “wealthy elite?” If so, then we Oregon taxpayers must also be part of the “wealthy elite.” The public employees are being asked to pay for part of their retirement and part of their health care coverage. I pay for all of mine and it’s not because I’m wealthy. It’s because of this thing called a recession. I have seen my takehome pay decrease and my benefits disappear completely. And yet there are those who think we should sympathize with the public employees who are asked to take a cut. So, as a taxpayer should I provide them with a deal far superior to what I have myself? I don’t think so. It’s not that public employees should live in poverty. We need educated and intelligent people teaching our kids and administering necessary public services. And these types of employees warrant a fair compensation package. But fair compensation does not mean immunity from the economic realities that the rest of us face, nor does it mean job security regardless of performance. It seems the “wealthy elite” Michael Moore is referring to are the public employees. But should we really be listening to Michael Moore anyway? Chris Tolke Redmond

No more Moore

Refreshing change

In the “news” of March 6, 2011, is the story about liberal filmmaker Michael Moore giving his support to the public employees in Wisconsin. The Associ-

I’d like to commend you about the excellent article about the Brewer family of Powell Butte, who are going to Uganda to bring home Esther, a homeless girl.

This is so refreshing compared to Deschutes County District Attorney Patrick Flaherty and his tactics. Human interest stories are always appealing. Keep up the good work. Dori Rorick Powell Butte

Mercury requirements Our government at work — let’s get rid of all the mercury thermometers and thermostats, but require mercurycontaining compact fluorescent light bulbs. Guess which one is more likely to be broken or end up in a landfill. Don Barnes Sunriver

Flaherty out of his league Now, I know that no one is perfect. And I know that The Bulletin only reports what it wants us to know. However, District Attorney Patrick Flaherty has only been in office for 31⁄2 months and it appears he is showing that he is totally out of his league. If he were confident in his new position, he would not resort to wasting taxpayer money over a frivolous lawsuit, “flex” his power by firing several staff members prior to taking office, and ensure he stays on the front page of the paper almost daily. Perhaps Flaherty should do what he was elected to do: serve the people, prosecute the bad guys, and try to save some taxpayer money. Oh — and perhaps he can work on keeping the focus on the accomplishments of his entire staff, rather than specifically on him. Trish Sewell Bend

America’s leadership does not put our country first By Ronald Deady Bulletin guest columnist

fter Rep. Greg Walden’s January discussion to a large group, I waited and asked him two questions: The first: “I see you disparage Democrat spending even after President George W. Bush left office after having piled on $4 to $5 trillion dollars in additional debt during his presidency?” Walden’s answer: “Bush left office after having added only $158 billion to Americans’ national debt.” Walden’s answer was not only vastly incorrect, it was — in this taxpayer’s viewpoint — deliberately misleading. Note: Subsequently, I communicated with Walden’s Washington office. Staffers confirmed the same misinformation, and wanted to discuss a $23 trillion dollar forecast for President Barack Obama’s spending. I asked if the average citizen was easily confused with such baiting and extremist rhetoric.” They promised to “get back with this citizen” during that Feb. 14 discussion, which they have not.

In research, I have learned that the Bush administration added $4.35 trillion in national debt from Sept. 30, 2000, to Sept. 30, 2008. I also learned that the Bush administration spent $158 billion “less” in 2008 than in 2007 — a far cry from trying to claim that it added only $158 billion to the national debt. Americans wanted solutions after last November, and we got another trillion dollars added on to the national debt after Congress voted to give unemployment to those who have been out of work for hundreds of weeks, and tax relief for the extremely wealthy. The quid pro quo was for politicians, not the American people. Neither issue would have gained 20 percent (according to a CNN report) if put to a vote by the American people. The point — neither party represents the best interests of the nation, and neither party wishes to be held accountable. Such congressional self-serving behaviors are unsustainable, and predict catastrophe for the nation.

IN MY VIEW The second question to Walden: “Isn’t it time for a constitutional convention to help stop the congressional spending hemorrhage?” The answer: “Oh no, that would never work.” This citizen knows that such glib answers don’t start to address the nation’s dilemmas. Behind such an answer is special interest pandering, which is still the predominant theme from Washington — regardless of political party — and “citizens” are not a special interest group. Note: To please special interests, politicians “bring back the bacon” to congressional districts. Thus, red ink on top of budgets. Special interests then give money to their campaigns. The game is played by both parties, giving us no option come election time. The representation of the will of the people is threatened by hysterical politicians, willing to say and do practically anything to get power and keep it. The

mere word “change” was enough to place politicians into office, who — we have learned — didn’t even need to clarify what would change to get them into the most powerful position on the globe. The detractors of that group said they represented something better and regained leadership of our House of Representatives. After winning the “will of the people,” they conveniently forgot what they promised. The result, during these years of drifting, is that American principles, ideals and reputation are being battered. Critical decisions are now “balanced” by visions of endless political longevity, rather than the best interests of the nation. Perhaps the very process of selection of political leaders is the issue. No one admires a country that hands out its precious resources to an endless list of the world’s leading monsters. No U.S. citizen would commend leadership that promotes the outsourcing of precious jobs. If the nature of those who pursue political power is so flawed toward

such decisions for personal and political gain, then the selection process to run for office needs to be dramatically improved. We lack principled people who put our nation first before their political future. Do we have any doubt that terms like “politically connected” and “party hack” ultimately define citizens who poorly lead the nation, state or local government? At present, we have no other options but to select citizens whose behaviors undermine American values. No political party envisions changing the “horse they rode in on,” so new ideas must be promoted by new voices in America. We are hearing such voices, and they don’t come from Washington. Perhaps they represent the only hope for quality representation of our people. Get involved, America. We’re in very serious trouble — and our “leadership” doesn’t put America first.

Children’s fantasy author Jones dies New York Times News Service Diana Wynne Jones, whose critically admired stories and novels for children and teenage readers imagined fantastical worlds inhabited by wizards, witches, magicians and ordinary boys and girls, died Saturday in Bristol, England. She was 76. The cause was cancer, a spokeswoman for HarperCollins Children’s Books said in an e-mail message. Jones’ work was especially relished by connoisseurs of the young-adult fantasy and science fiction genres. She wrote more than 35 books, including the Chrestomanci series, which focuses on a powerful enchanter who presides over a world in which magic is, in her words, “as common as music.” Another popular book, “Howl’s Moving Castle” (1986), about a young girl transformed into an old crone by a spiteful witch, was adapted into a 2004 animated film. Her books, which draw on Norse and other mythologies, created generally recognizable worlds except for the ubiquity of spells, trances and hocus-pocus.

Chicago Tribune ile photo

Photographer Michael Abramson, seen in December 2009, spent much of his career in exotic climates but gained his greatest fame from photos he shot of nightlife on Chicago’s South Side during the 1970s. Abramson, 62, died of kidney cancer on March 21 in his Chicago home.

Noted photographer Abramson dies at 62 By Rick Kogan Chicago Tribune

CHICAGO — Michael Abramson fit the conventional image of globe-trotting photographer, and indeed much of his career was spent in exotic climes and photographing well-known people. But later in life, he gained his greatest fame, critical acclaim and personal satisfaction by publishing in magazine and book form photographs he shot on Chicago’s South Side over nearly three years in the mid-1970s. Abramson, 62, died of kidney cancer March 21 in his Chicago home. “Michael had an insatiable curiosity about people,” said his longtime companion, Midge Wilson, an associate dean at DePaul University. “He exhibited a sincere interest in individuals — their histories, their passions, what makes them tick. His insightful portraits, whether of celebrities or everyday people, bring them alive.” A commercial portrait photographer and photojournalist, Abramson followed his work to Indonesia, France, Cuba, Argentina, Greece, the

Netherlands and Puerto Rico. His subjects included Oprah Winfrey, Steven Spielberg, Donald Rumsfeld, Louis Farrakhan, Ron Howard, Steve Jobs and Michael Jordan. His photographs were featured in such publications as the New York Times, Fortune, People, Time, Businessweek, Forbes and Sports Illustrated. His work is in the permanent collections of the Smithsonian, Art Institute of Chicago, California Museum of Photography, Chicago History Museum and Milwaukee Art Museum. His first book, “The Thorne Rooms of the Art Institute of Chicago,” in collaboration with Kathleen Aguilar, was published in 1984. Abramson was born in Newark, N.J., in 1948. He grew up in South Orange, N.J., and graduated from the Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania in 1970. While working in the financial industry in Boston, Abramson took a photography class and decided, as he said, “to throw the dice.” He moved to Chicago in 1974 to study photography at the Illinois Institute of Technology, where he received a master’s in design in 1977. During that time he began to

Resorts Continued from C1 That’s what he told Rep. Brian Clem, D-Salem, several months ago when the lawmaker most responsible for the Metolius resort ban called to check in with Kean. The result is House Bill 3572, sponsored by Clem; Rep. Gene Whisnant, R-Sunriver; Rep. Ben Cannon, D-Portland; and Sen. Alan Bates, D-Medford. It will extend the deadline another three years, and also preserve Kean’s ability to work with certain counties that might otherwise have lost their eligibility for the program Clem created. The 2009 bill allowed either Kean’s group or the Ponderosa Land and Cattle Co. — which was also proposing a resort — to put an eco-resort in a county that had a history of high unemployment. The pilot program granted the developers what’s called a “transfer of development opportunities.” In essence, they could buy forest-land and then consolidate all the potential homes that could otherwise be built only in a scattered fashion, into one clustered development. Since then, the unemployment rates improved in the two coun-

wander the city’s South Side. “The camera gave me a tool to justify my going anywhere,” he told a Tribune reporter in 2008. As a white man in a predominantly African-American scene, he never felt apart. “I was never fearful,” he said. “I did not give the race thing much thought. I didn’t have to.” He made what would prove to be lasting friendships. Blues great Lonnie Brooks called him “The Picture Man.” The pictures from this time became the basis of a Tribune magazine cover story in 2008, which led in turn to the publication of the book “Light on the South Side.” It was nominated for a Grammy Award. “Light on the South Side,” published by Chicago-based Numero Group in 2009, is a handsome package with nearly 100 of the thousands of photos Abramson shot, and it is accompanied by two albums of music of the era. In an introductory essay, acclaimed British writer Nick Hornby wrote: “Like a good novelist, Abramson is particularly attuned to relationships and how to frame them.” In addition to Wilson, Abramson is survived by his mother, Ethel; a sister, Leslie; and a brother, Richard.

ties that seemed best-suited for a resort — Lincoln and Wasco — meaning that many months of negotiations were wasted, Kean said. Besides that, a lot of the investment funds his group, Dutch Pacific Resources LLC, had been hoping to tap had dried up, he said. He called the new bill “a helpful step.” Whisnant, who fought the Metolius resort ban, said he thinks the bill has good chances for bipartisan support. Clem, for his part, called the new bill “part of honoring my commitment.” He said that if the new deadline doesn’t give Kean enough time, there will probably be another push to extend the deadline. Clem said nerves at the Legislature are still a little chafed over the 2009 battle over the Metolius, which required him to use a back-door legislative maneuver to bypass opposition among the House Democratic leadership at the time. So seeing the word “Metolius” near Clem’s name has “brought fear into the heart of many a member” this year, Clem joked. Nick Budnick can be reached at 503-566-2839 or at nbudnick@bendbulletin.com.

Alan Bates, D-Medford History: Two years ago, a push to ban resorts from the Metolius River Basin area succeeded and one of the crucial components to that victory was an attempt to help two development groups whose resort proposals were shot down. This bill essentially gives the groups more time to pursue relocating their vision. Central Oregon impact: No resorts are likely to happen under this bill. What’s next: HB 3572 is likely to be voted on Wednesday by the House Agriculture and Natural Resources Committee. Read the bill: www.leg. state.or.us/11reg/measures/ hb3500.dir/hb3572.intro. html

MEN’S COLLEGE BASKETBALL

Ducks lose opener of CBI finals to Creighton

Bend’s Lodwick named to Pac-10 all-academic team Bend’s Abe Lodwick, a starting basketball player for Washington State, has been named to the first team of the Pac-10 Conference’s Men’s Basketball All-Academic team, the conference announced Monday. Lodwick, a former Mountain View High School standout, is a communications major with a 3.21 grade-point average. Lodwick has played in all 34 games for the Cougars this season, starting 31 of them, and has averaged 3.6 points and 4.1 rebounds in 23.5 minutes per game. He is an all-academic honoree for the second time, after making the second team last season. Lodwick’s Cougars take on Wichita State in the semifinals of the National Invitational Tournament today at 4 p.m. The game will be televised on ESPN2. Oregon State’s Angus Brandt and Rhys Murphy were also named to the first team, while Oregon’s Nicholas Fearn and Garrett Sim were named to the second team. — Bulletin staff report

Fredette leads AP All-America team Seniors dominated The Associated Press All-America team for the first time in five years. Jimmer Fredette of BYU, Nolan Smith of Duke and JaJuan Johnson of Purdue, all seniors, were joined on the team Monday by junior Kemba Walker of Connecticut and freshman Jared Sullinger of Ohio State. It’s the most seniors since four made the 2006 team. Fredette led the nation in scoring at 28.5 points per game while shooting 40.4 percent from three-point range, a number more impressive because of the shots he lets fly from well behind the line. He received all but one vote from the 65-member national media panel that selects the weekly Top 25. The voting was done before the NCAA tournament. Fredette became one of the most popular players in recent memory as teams that lost to BYU were “jimmered.” “I think that it’s a great accomplishment. Unbelievable,” BYU coach Dave Rose said. “It shows how good his work ethic is. He’s a player who has worked his way into an All-American. What he’s meant to our program over the last four years — it’s really kind of immeasurable.” — The Associated Press

Roller hockey primer Roller hockey is a sport similar to ice hockey, but a few differences exist for those who play the game on wheels instead of metal blades.

SIMILARITIES • The equipment is largely the same, with hockey sticks, gloves, helmets, shin guards and elbow pads • It’s played with a puck, although it’s plastic instead of rubber • The rink (at right) looks much like an ice hockey rink, minus the ice

Center line

Goal

Face-off circles

DIFFERENCES BYU’s Jimmer Fredette

• Played four-on-four plus goalies (ice hockey uses six players) • No icing rule, in which a team clears the puck from its defensive end of the ice across two lines of the same color; no offside rule, in which

the puck must precede any attacking players into the attacking zone • Equipment: Girdle/pants (do not have as much padding) and in-line skates instead of ice hockey skates

OMAHA, Neb. — The home fans gave their old coach a warm welcome, and then Creighton did its best to run Dana Altman’s Oregon Ducks out of the building. The Bluejays built big leads early in the first and second halves, but they couldn’t put away the Ducks until the final minute in an 84-76 victory Monday night in Game 1 of the College Basketball Invitational championship series. “The start of the game was phenomenal,” Creighton coach Greg McDermott said. “I’m not sure I’ve experienced anything like that. It was electric in the arena. We came out clicking, and Oregon wasn’t far behind us offensively.” The Bluejays made nine of their first 10 shots and had a double-digit lead seven minutes into the game. The advantage was 17 points after Doug McDermott scored nine of his game-high 21 points during a 12-0 run the first four minutes of the second half. But Oregon wouldn’t go away, twice pulling within four points late in the game. Game 2 is Wednesday in Eugene and a third game, if necessary, would be played there Friday. The Altman vs. Creighton subplot is adding spice to the CBI finals. He’s Creighton’s all-time winningest coach, with 327 victories and seven NCAA tournament appearances in 16 years. He left the 6,000-student Jesuit school last April for a $1.7 million-ayear offer from Oregon. The move came as a big surprise to his players and Creighton fans. In his first trip back to the Qwest Center — one he said he dreaded — he got a warm reception from the CBI single-game record crowd of 12,381. Fans on the floor rose and clapped as Altman walked out of the tunnel to the court. He and his staff shook hands with the Bluejays’ staff, and Altman got a quick hug from Greg McDermott. Altman again received a long and loud ovation when his name was announced during pregame introductions. See CBI / D4

The No. 1 goal for just about all of Central Oregon’s boys golf teams this season is to advance past their district tournaments and compete for a state title. A close second, though, is regional brag-

ging rights. Class 6A Redmond, Class 5A Bend and Summit, and Class 4A Crook County may compete in separate postseasons, but all four schools expect to fight for Central Oregon superiority this spring. “Our No. 1 goal is the district tournament,” Crook County coach Zach Lampert says. “Crook County’s boys haven’t made it to state as a team since the early 1990s. “But nine of our 10 regular-season tournaments are right here in Central Oregon against the same teams,” Lampert adds.

S B Baseball • Ex-mistress: Bonds blamed steroids for injury: Barry Bonds’ former mistress testified Monday that he blamed a 1999 elbow injury on steroid use, and that the body and behavior of baseball’s home run king changed during their nine-year relationship. Called by prosecutors to the witness stand, Kimberly Bell choked up as she recalled Bonds once threatening “to cut my head off and leave me in a ditch,” an outburst prosecutors attribute to steroid use. The defense portrayed Bell as an unreliable witness, hungry to capitalize on her affair with Bonds, and Bell acknowledged that the relationship benefited her financially. Bonds, who holds the major league record for home runs in a career, is accused of four counts of making false statements and one of obstruction for telling a federal grand jury in 2003 — months after his relationship with Bell ended — that he never knowingly used performance-enhancing drugs. • Mariners make moves to get down to 25-man roster: The Seattle Mariners have reassigned catcher Josh Bard and utility player Chris Gimenez to minor league camp as they to pare down toward their opening day roster of 25 players. Left-hander Luke French was also optioned to Triple-A Tacoma on Monday. He allowed three runs on nine hits in five innings in his spring training start Sunday. Bard and Gimenez were non-roster invitees. • Firm: Jose Canseco’s twin showed up for match: A celebrity boxing firm claims that former baseball player Jose Canseco had his twin brother show up in his place for a boxing event in Hollywood. El Nuevo Herald reported Monday that Canseco did not show up for a fight on Saturday at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino. A representative from Celebrity Boxing told the Spanish language newspaper that the switch was discovered when Ozzie Canseco took off his shirt and didn’t have his brother’s tattoos on the biceps that appear in the company’s advertising. The fight was cancelled. Ozzie Canseco, also a former major league baseball player, was arrested on DUI charges in Tampa in January.

Football • Vick co-defendant returned to prison for 11 months: A co-defendant in the Michael Vick dogfighting case on Monday was sent back to prison for 11 months for violating terms of his supervised release, including talking to the NFL star at a Virginia Beach nightclub last summer and then lying to his probation officer about it. U.S. District Judge Henry E. Hudson told Quanis Phillips he had “failed miserably” during the past year, citing a list of transgressions: failing to report run-ins with police, failing a drug test, refusing to attend a mandatory mental health appointment and being convicted of reckless driving and driving on a suspended license. Phillips admitted all the violations, including his contact with Vick at the Philadelphia Eagles quarterback’s

birthday bash. • Former NFL players join lockout fight: Four former NFL players, including Hall of Fame defensive end Carl Eller, sued the NFL on Monday in hopes of joining current players in their antitrust fight against the league. Eller, three-time All-Pro running back Priest Holmes and ex-players Obafemi Ayanbadejo and Ryan Collins are listed as plaintiffs in the 44-page complaint filed in federal court in Minneapolis and obtained by The Associated Press. It seeks class-action status on behalf of all former players. The retirees want the NFL lockout lifted to ensure their pensions and health benefits remain funded. According to the lawsuit, those benefits will end if a collective bargaining agreement is not renewed by next March 11 — a year after the last one expired.

Two-time champion Roger Federer reached the fourth round by beating No. 32 Juan Monaco 7-6 (4), 6-4.

Sports • Coaches, doctors to form concussion study group: A group of coaches, doctors, equipment manufacturers and parents will study concussions and brain trauma injuries, hoping to consolidate information that will make all sports safer. The National Sports Concussion Cooperative was formed Monday by the American Football Coaches Association; the University of North Carolina’s traumatic brain injury research center; the Matthew Gfeller Foundation; and Rawlings Sporting Goods.

NHL ROUNDUP

Selanne’s five-point night leads Ducks over Avalanche The Associated Press ANAHEIM, Calif. — Teemu Selanne had barely taken off his jersey in the Anaheim Ducks’ locker room when Corey Perry serenaded him with the same chant he had just heard on the Honda Center ice. “One more year! One more year!” the NHL’s goal-scoring leader yelled at the 40-year-old Finn-

ish Flash. The Ducks needed every one of Selanne’s five magnificent points to hold on to a game they nearly overlooked in their playoff chase. Selanne had three goals and two assists, rookie Cam Fowler scored the tiebreaking power-play goal early in the third period, and the Ducks beat the Colorado Avalanche 5-4 Monday night for their

eighth victory in 10 games. Selanne evoked a shower of hats with his usual grace and style, scoring his first penalty-shot goal in 18 years during Anaheim’s three-goal second period before nimbly completing his 22nd career hat trick on a power play with 4:49 remaining in the game. His ninth career five-point game kept Anaheim

one point in front of defending Stanley Cup champion Chicago for seventh place in the West.

NBA ROUNDUP

PREP ROUNDUP

Blazers beat Spurs Mountain View knocks off Crook County in baseball

The Associated Press SAN ANTONIO — The Portland Trail Blazers knew they caught a break: Tim Duncan and Manu Ginobili were too hurt to play, and Tony Parker was a surprise late scratch, too. Portland took advantage. Yet, it still wasn’t easy. Andre Miller scored 26 points and the Blazers, who trailed late despite San Antonio playing without four starters, rallied in the final minutes to hand the slumping and banged-up Spurs their fourth consecutive loss, 100-92 on Monday night. “It was a trap game once we got to the arena,” Blazers coach Nate McMillan said. The Blazers beat the NBA’s winningest team for the second time in three days, this time with Parker, Ginobili, Duncan and Antonio McDyess all sidelined. Parker (left knee contusion) is the most likely to be back Thursday against Boston, and McDyess (back) could also play after the 36-year-old essentially got the night off to rest for the playoffs. Duncan (ankle sprain) and Ginobili (left quad contusion) are the question marks. Ginobili, who left Sunday’s loss at Memphis early after being hurt, said he felt “much better” while jogging past reporters before the game. But his status and Duncan’s remain unknown. Gerald Wallace added 14 points for Portland and hit a crucial three-pointer with 2:02 left, capping a quick 7-0 burst that put the Blazers back ahead. It was the finishing touch on a 15-1 run after letting the undermanned Spurs lead by as much as eight in the fourth. “We ain’t going to throw it out, because if we would have lost, we would’ve looked back like they didn’t have their players and that was a game we needed,” Miller said. “So we’re trying to finish off and get some momentum going into the playoffs.” They also needed it to help their playoff jockeying. The Blazers (43-31) kept their hold on sixth place and are 1½ games behind Denver for fifth. The Spurs, meanwhile, are slipping. George Hill led San Antonio with 27 points. The Spurs are on their longest slide all season, and their once-commanding lead in the West is shrinking with the Los Angeles Lakers surging. San Antonio had a sevengame lead over the Lakers a week ago. But after the Spurs lost on all three stops on a road trip, and returned home to host the Blazers short-handed, the Lakers trail by just 3½ games. The Spurs (57-17) have eight games left. “It’s life. You have to deal with

Portland led throughout the first half, but lost the lead late in the third quarter when Danny Green hit a three-pointer. Green — who had played all of 14 minutes this season — followed by stealing the ball from Brandon Roy and coasting in for a wide-open dunk. After trailing by seven at halftime, the Spurs entered the fourth quarter ahead 72-67. But Portland pulled together. Miller scored 11 points in the fourth while the Spurs missed seven of 10 three-point attempts, shooting themselves out of the game. “If we could have added a little bit of (shooting) to the competitiveness and heart they showed, we would have been in great shape,” Popovich said. Rookie Tiago Splitter, starting again in place of Duncan, added 14 points for the Spurs. Popovich wouldn’t guess when Duncan or Ginobili might return.

On Tuesday Crook County earned more hits off Alex Robinett than the Mountain View pitching ace has given up all season. Unfortunately for the Cowboys it was not enough as the Cougars rolled on to a 10-3 win in the nonconference baseball game at Mountain View. The Cougars started strong, bringing in three runs in the bottom of the first inning. Robinett’s two-run home run in the second was the big blow in a five-run inning for the home team, which held an 8-0 lead after two innings. Nonetheless, Crook County’s play showed promise, according to Mountain View coach Dave McKae. “They racked up some hits on Robinett. They got four hits on him, which no one has done this season,” McKae said. Before Tuesday, the senior pitcher had given up only two hits this season. Aside from the hits, the Cowboys had success in other areas as well. Crook County had two stolen bases and also put on a successful squeeze play. But the Cowboys (1-1 overall) could not overcome the might of Mountain View (5-3), which tallied 10 hits against the visiting squad. Mountain View’s John Carroll hit a pair of doubles and brother Joe recorded four singles on the day. Dylan Baker added another double for the home team, which scored single runs in the fifth and sixth innings to keep the game out of reach. “We’re starting to kind of feel and understand the pace that we’d like to play,” offered McKae. Crook County will get another chance at the Cougars on Wednesday, as Mountain View plays host once again. BASEBALL Redmond . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .5 Bend . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .4 REDMOND — After the Lava Bears scored

twice in the first inning and added one more run on a solo homer by Grant Newton in the third, the Panthers then rallied to take a 4-3 lead in the bottom of the fifth. Bend managed to tie the game on a pair of errors by the home team in the top half of the game’s final frame, but after Connor Lau walked and Anthony Martorano hit a batter to put Lau in scoring position in the bottom of the seventh, the victory was at hand for Redmond. Jeremy Erisman, making up for a costly defensive miscue, brought home Lau with a single off the end of his bat. “I don’t think either team was happy defensively,” said Panthers coach Marc Horner. The two teams meet again in Redmond on Wednesday. BOYS GOLF Redmond’s Lambert shoots 74 PORTLAND — Jared Lambert, who shot a 37 on both the front and back nine, carded a 74 to lead Redmond’s golf team in the nine-team tournament at the Portland Golf Club. Good conditions helped Mason Roby post an 80 and Tim Messner finish with an 82 on a course that none of the Panthers had played before. The tournament team winner and medalist were unavailable. Redmond shot a 330 for the day and returns to action Monday at Brasada Ranch. GIRLS GOLF Madras competes at Molalla MOLALLA — Valley Catholic’s Lindsay Harmon, the defending Class 4A/3A/2A/1A individual champion, shot a 77 at the Arrowhead Country Club to claim medalist honors in a fiveteam golf meet that included Madras. Savannah Patterson shot a team low 119 for the White Buffaloes. SOFTBALL Softball doubleheader rained out Redmond High School’s softball doubleheader at South Eugene scheduled for Monday was postponed because of rain. The two teams hope to meet on Wednesday, most likely in Redmond.

WOMEN’S COLLEGE BASKETBALL

Stanford ends Gonzaga’s run with an 83-60 victory The Associated Press SPOKANE, Wash. — Nnemkadi Ogwumike knows nothing but going to the Final Four since arriving at Stanford. Little sister Chiney is coming along for the ride this time. Nnemkadi Ogwumike dominated the inside with 23 points and 11 rebounds, sister Chiney chipped in with 18 points and 15 boards and Stanford is headed back to its fourth straight Final Four after the top-seeded Cardinal ended the surprising run of Gonzaga 83-60 in the Spokane Regional final on Monday night. The size and strength of Stanford was simply too much for the Bulldogs, and their more than 11,000 hometown fans, to overcome on this night. Kayla Pedersen and Jeanette Pohlen will close out their college careers on The Farm a perfect four for four at reaching the Final Four, a streak that started by winning the Spokane Regional in 2008 when they were freshmen. Stanford (33-2) won its 27th straight to match the longest streak in school history and will face the Baylor-Texas A&M winner in the national semifinals on Sunday night. “Some people might take this for granted but we’re very grateful to be going,” Pohlen said. Courtney Vandersloot did her best to carry Gonzaga (31-5) for a half before the Bulldogs wore down in the final 20 minutes under a bevy of missed shots and a befuddling Stanford zone defense. Vandersloot, who came in averaging 30.7 points and 10.3 assists in the tournament, finished with 25 points and nine assists, including 18 straight Gonzaga points during a nine-minute stretch of the first half. But Stanford managed to harass Vandersloot in the second half and limited her to just four points. Her stellar college career ended when she checked out with 1:14 left to a standing ovation and a wave to the crowd after leading Gonzaga to upsets of Iowa, UCLA and Louisville to reach the first Elite Eight in school history. “In the second half we weren’t getting the shots we were in the first half and things just started to go Stanford’s way,” Vandersloot said. Gonzaga was trying to become the first team not named Stanford from West of the Rockies to reach the Final Four since Long Beach State in 1988.

The Fighting Irish (30-7) came in 020 all-time against Tennessee. Natalie Novosel added 17 points and Becca Bruszewski — who didn’t practice Sunday and was listed as questionable to even play with a knee injury — had 13 for the Fighting Irish.

UConn in Final Four, twice? PHILADELPHIA — Duke has tried to forget the thumping. The Blue Devils insist they’ve moved on from the season’s first game against Connecticut. With good reason. The Huskies blew away an undefeated Duke team 87-51 on Jan. 31. The Blue Devils will have to erase the embarrassment from their minds if they’ll have any chance in the rematch. The top-seeded Huskies (35-1) have to get past Duke (32-3) to keep their bid alive for a third straight national championship. They’ll play in regional championship game on Tuesday night at 4 p.m. PDT. UConn would love to join the men’s team in the Final Four. The Huskies have accomplished the double in 2004 and 2009. Both teams won the national championship in 2004. No. 1 seed Baylor plays Texas A&M in another regional final today at 6 p.m. — The Associated Press

Oregon’s E.J. Singler, center, tries to drive past Creighton’s Josh Jones (5) as Doug McDermott (3) looks on during the second half of Game 1 of the best-of-three College Basketball Invitational finals series in Omaha, Neb., Monday.

CBI Continued from D1 “Oh, I appreciated it,” Altman said. “The people have always been good to us — 16 years — really good to our family. It was nice.” McDermott said he didn’t spend much time talking to his players about their former coach. “I think it was emotional for some of them, obviously, with coach Altman coming back,” he said. “I really appreciated the way the fans treated Coach Altman. That’s exactly what he deserved. Doug (McDermott) said it best, that we

might not be playing in this building if it’s not for coach Altman.” The Ducks struggled against the bigger Creighton. The 6-foot-9, 270-pound Gregory Echenique had 15 points and blocked four shots, and Josh Jones and Jahenns Manigat had 11 points apiece for the Bluejays (23-14). Joevan Catron led Oregon (19-18) with 15 points and nine rebounds. Garrett Sim and Jay-R Strowbridge had 14 points apiece and Johnathan Loyd and E.J. Singler 10 each for the Ducks. “I just didn’t think we were very sharp,” Altman said. “That probably has a lot more to do with them than it had to do with us. We were just a half-

step slower tonight.” Strowbridge finished a 16-5 spurt with a layup off a steal, pulling Oregon within 63-57. The Ducks missed four of their next five shots and committed a turnover, and the Bluejays were back in front 70-59 after Kenny Lawson put back his own miss with a dunk. The Bluejays were up 79-72 before Strowbridge’s three-pointer cut it to four points with 1:30 left. Josh Jones’s threepointer made it 82-75 with 1:21 left. Oregon’s E.J. Singler had a chance to get Oregon within four points, but McDermott came up from behind to block his layup try with 40 seconds left, all but ending the Ducks’ comeback hopes.

Continued from D1 “Redmond, Summit, Mountain View, Bend, Madras, Sisters. We’re all playing in the same tourneys.” While Redmond and Summit are both coming off runner-up finishes at state, both those teams must reload after losing multiple seniors. With Bend and Crook County both expected to be stronger than in years past, the battle for “best in Central Oregon” status looks to be wide open. “We’re not losing everybody, which feels good,” says Redmond coach Ron Buerger, who has senior Jared Lambert and sophomore Mason Rodby back from last season’s team that placed second at the 6A state championships. “But we’ve got some big shoes to fill.” Lambert posted the second best Redmond score at state last season and tied for 11th overall. Rodby tied for 57th out of 91 golfers as one of only nine freshmen at the tournament. “Crook County’s gotten stron-

Wrestling • Central Oregon wrestlers take part in national event: A number of youth wrestlers from Central Oregon participated last weekend in the National Middle School Duals wrestling competition. The event was held Friday through Sunday in Danville, Illinois, and included about 20 teams from Oregon, Indiana, Ohio, Illinois, Texas, New Mexico, Nebraska, Kentucky and Minnesota. The Oregon team was divided into two squads for the competition: “Oregon Black” finished seventh and “Oregon Orange” took eighth. The wrestlers who represented Oregon advanced to the national event through high placements in regional and state competitions held earlier this month. Bend wrestlers Trayton Libolt (High Desert Middle School) and Trey Shores (Skyview Middle School) competed for the Oregon state team at the national duals, as did Kurt Mode, Brent Bannon, Hayden Bates, Ryder Shinkle, Michael Seyl, Brendan Harkey, Alex Urrea, Gunnar Robirts and Dakota Mathews, all students at Crook County Middle School in Prineville. — Bulletin staff report

ger, Bend High’s stronger than in recent years and we’re coming back to the field a bit,” Buerger adds. “Summit has too. (Locally) it should be more competitive as a group.” Despite graduating three seniors from its 2010 5A state runnerup squad, the Storm could make another state trophy run in 2011. Junior Dylan Cramer finished tied for 13th at state a year ago and junior Cole Ortega tied for 29th. Sophomore Stephen Drgastin also is back after playing one day at the 2010 state championships. “Our goal is always four days in May,” says Summit coach Mark Tichenor. “The two days at the district tournament and two days at state.” The Storm have no seniors on this year’s team, but Tichenor expects his squad to again contend at the 5A state tourney. “In golf, more than any other sport, the age or grade of a player is a little overrated,” says Tichenor, who points out that many local golfers come into high school with an extensive golf background, having played in the Central Or-

egon Junior Golf Association. “We may be young on paper, but we’re not young as far as the program goes.” While Summit looks to return to the 5A state tournament, Crook County’s early-season results suggest the Cowboys could be a contender in 4A. Crook County shot a 315 at its first tournament this season at Crooked River Ranch — only the Storm were better at the seven-team tourney, posting a 307 — with Kurt Russell (76), Jared George (79) and Dillon Russell (80) all shooting 80 or lower. “We’re pretty deep,” Lampert says. “We might not have one kid shoot even par, but we have four or five who can shoot around 80. That gives us a chance at all of our tournaments.” And almost all of those tournaments are here in Central Oregon. “(Playing locally) brings back the old rivalries of who can bring it home,” Lampert adds, “and represent Central Oregon the best.” Beau Eastes can be reached at 541-383-0305 or at beastes@ bendbulletin.com.

D6 Tuesday, March 29, 2011 • THE BULLETIN

Ryan Brennecke / The Bulletin

Shane DelPozzo, front, and Trevor Olsen fight for the puck while playing a pick-up game of roller hockey Sunday at Cascade Indoor Sports in Bend.

Hockey Continued from D1 So in the past year — when Kromm started in his position at Cascade — he and Butch Roberts, Cascade’s director, have started to grow the sport anew at the facility’s roller rink. Roller hockey is similar to ice hockey, but some differences exist. Roller hockey players use in-line skates instead of ice hockey skates and play on a roller rink surface or athletic court instead of on ice. Games are played four-on-four plus goalies (there are six players in ice hockey). Icing and offside rules do not exist in roller hockey and checking is not allowed, leading to a wide-open, fast-paced, skill-based game that Kromm said can capture the attention of kids where other sports fail. (See “Roller hockey primer” for term definitions.) Kromm, 29, remembers the moment he fell in love with the sport. He said he was about 10 years old and playing on an outdoor rink similar to the one formerly at Juniper Park. “The sun was setting,” he recalled. “I had a breakaway. The wind was blowing in my face, and I scored the goal. And I was like, ‘That’s it. I’m done. I love this sport. It’s mine.’” And now he is trying to pass on that appreciation in Central Oregon, focusing on the youth levels — the age at which it is easiest to pick up the sport. Six players showed up at the first youth lesson Kromm taught at Cascade. Now, about 30 kids

12 and younger are participating in league play on Saturday mornings, and he expects the numbers to grow. Cascade offers youth leagues and “Learn to Play” programs designed to teach youngsters the basics, including stick handling, shooting, passing and skating. The next Learn to Play session starts May 12. Plenty of opportunities exist for adults to get involved, too. At Sunday’s evening pick-up game, a weekly occurrence open to roller hockey enthusiasts of all abilities, about two dozen players — including a few women — turned out. Enough adults are now playing to hold adult leagues on Tuesday evenings. And newcomers — or those with previous experience who have been away from the sport for a while — can try their hand during Thursday evening “Hockey 101” programs. New sessions for all programs are continually starting at Cascade. (See “If you go” for contact and program information.) Ideally, Kromm said, aspiring players already have some skating experience. But for those who did not have the chance to play from a young age, a good way to shore up those skills is to practice, he said. Cascade holds a number of weekly open skate sessions, and when players get comfortable on in-line skates, they can add other sport-specific skills and move on to the introductory program or league play. Players also need to acquire the requisite gear, which Cascade has available for purchase or rental. Required gear includes

a hockey stick, in-line skates, gloves, a helmet, shin guards and elbow pads. These items are identical to ice hockey gear, so players with ice hockey backgrounds do not need to invest in new gear. Players also typically wear roller hockey pants with a girdle underneath; both items are similar to those used in ice hockey but include less padding because contact between players is incidental — though it does still occur. Jeff Humby, 39, is one of those players who comes from an ice hockey background and decided to give roller hockey a try. Humby grew up playing the sport in Canada and moved to Bend from New York City in January. He found out about roller hockey on Cascade’s website and started his conversion, as Central Oregon has no yearround, full-sized ice rink. He has enjoyed the switch so far. “I’m a hockey fan, so I love to come out and play anywhere there’s a stick and a puck and a bunch of guys that like to throw each other around,” Humby said. It’s a good time.” And not only that, but new faces are also good news for enthusiasts such as Miller, the former Bullets player, as increasing numbers of participants help him to keep playing the game he loves. “I can’t get enough of it,” Miller said. “There’s just not enough time to play enough hockey.” Amanda Miles can be reached at 541-383-0393 or at amiles@ bendbulletin.com.

Spiritual Group gathers monthly to focus on personal growth

vibes

By David Jasper The Bulletin

ach month since October, Tamra Fleming and Sandi Hanson, the folks behind A Spiritual Gathering, have been holding spiritual events — not to be confused with “religious” events — in Redmond. “Our mission,” they say on their website (www.aspiritualgathering.com), “is to gather our strength, experiences, resources and wisdom and share with each other the intention of evolving ourselves and our collective consciousness into a positive humanity.” For a donation of $5 to $20, folks can learn about things like “Fire up the Heart,” which explored “how to live in pure heart wisdom.” The next month was “Be the Change,” on becoming the change we want to see in the world. Fleming is a life coach and quantum healer.

Quantum healing is “way out on the front edge of the healing field,” she says. Basically, it’s “a process where the belief is if you don’t remove a core issue or pattern from the DNA it will stay in the body … genetically, from generation (to generation).” If you have an emotional problem that keeps popping up, “that is an issue that needs to get healed. It is basically embedded in the DNA,” she said. “We feel it is the time on our planet that we must be sensitive to the changes afoot; be conscious to the inner growth required to create these changes; and become all that we can be to ensure these changes take place.” Fleming, 50, has a background in the corporate world, including Starbucks, for which she worked for two years. Before that, she had worked for Liz Claiborne, Macy’s and other large companies. “I was always spiritual, into spiritual things, but I was also a corporate executive at Starbucks.” See Vibrations / E6

Next session A Spiritual Gathering’s next event will be held April 12 from 6 to 8:30 p.m. The subject is “Live Your Life Dreams in Abundance and Prosperity,” and will include an “interactive session focused on deciding what you want and removing limiting beliefs.” Bring something to write on and “an open heart free of judgment and full of wonder.” Suggested donation is $5-20. RSVP (required) at www.aspiritual gathering.com/upcoming-events. html. Contact: www.aspiritual gathering.com.

The second annual Chicken Coop Tour in Bend will be held May 7. From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., participants will be able to tour about 30 chicken coops in Central Oregon. About 15 stops have been identified, and planners seek more birds of a feather who would like to make their coops a stop on the tour. The event benefits Together For Children, Healing Reins Therapeutic Riding Center and NeighborImpact Food Bank. Tour booklets serve as tickets and map to coops, at a price of $10 or six items of nonperishable food per booklet, which covers entry for a carload of people. Organizers also seek sponsors for the event. Sponsorship levels range from $50 to $250. Contact: www.bendchickens .com, bendcooptour@gmail.com or 541-241-2040.

E2 Tuesday, March 29, 2011 • THE BULLETIN

Older worker’s behavior could have many causes Dear Abby: My heart ached after reading the letter from “Stumped in California” (Feb. 4), who wondered what could be done about an older co-worker, “Anita,” who she said was showing “signs of dementia.” I would caution her about making judgments based on stereotypes of older workers and their health problems. Like Anita, I am in my late 60s. I am also underwater in my mortgage, which means I have no nest egg. Because my husband is unemployed, my savings have been depleted. My short-term memory is poor, and the meds I am on to help me function do not improve my memory. Anita may not have dementia. She may be suffering from unbearable worry and stress. I suggest putting out a hand in friendship to Anita instead of trying to diagnose her. — Feeling It Too in Richmond, Va. Dear Feeling It: Many of my readers felt this one, and wrote to offer compassion to Anita as well as possible explanations for her slip in job performance. Read on: Dear Abby: Anyone experiencing marked and/or prolonged changes in mood, function and behavior should undergo thorough medical and/or psychological/psychiatric evaluation. Many treatable conditions can affect memory and concentration. The constant tearfulness observed by “Stumped” is a common symptom of depression. If Anita’s office has an Employee Assistance Plan, a supervisor or HR will know the procedure for referring her to an EAP clinician who can evaluate her and make recommendations for treatment, work-related considerations and follow-up. — Licensed Clinical Psychologist, Upstate New York Dear Abby: I am a state-licensed hearing instrument specialist. The commonalities be-

DEAR ABBY tween the symptoms of hearing loss and dementia are many. A person with hearing loss has a tendency to withdraw — she’s more APART FROM than a PART OF. Also, if she’s having trouble remembering things she’s done before, she may not have heard the request. (How can you remember something if you have never heard it?) I encourage “Stumped” to talk to Anita about having her hearing tested. A hearing aid may be what she needs to help her perform better on the job. — Knows from Experience Dear Abby: As a manager in the federal government, I had an employee who worked hard the majority of her life and did a great job. Suddenly, her performance began suffering. It didn’t make sense to me how she could be so valuable at one point in her career, and then couldn’t do the simplest task without goofing it up. I sent her to a doctor for an examination, and we discovered that this “older woman” was having mini-strokes all day long! I was relieved to be able to retire her on disability, rather than destroying her life’s hard work by firing her. And she was able to get help for a medical condition she wasn’t aware of. — Ruth in Frederick, Md. Dear Abby: Anita may have a thyroid problem. I had similar symptoms in my 40s, and it took two years for the right diagnosis. A blood test is all she would need to find out. — Helping Hand in Orland Hills, Ill. Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby .com or P.O.

Among the dead, a character finds life By Brian Stelter

Dana Delany portrays Dr. Megan Hunt in a scene from “Body of Proof.” Hunt, once a successful neurosurgeon, has become a medical examiner in order to move on after experiencing a series of life-changing events.

New York Times News Service

Television dramas, at their cores, are about characters. What Dana Delany is doing, then, every day on the set of “Body of Proof” is character-building. Delany is getting to know Dr. Megan Hunt, the lead character on “Body of Proof,” a medical mystery drama that will have its premiere on ABC tonight. Viewers may think they have seen this show before — whether “House” or some similar series — so character development might help distinguish it in a way that even the most serpentine homicide investigation cannot. Hunt was conceived by Christopher Murphey, the show’s creator, as a cold, clinical but professionally successful neurosurgeon in Philadelphia whose life is upended by a divorce, the loss of custody of her daughter and a car accident. The show picks up five years after that accident, when Hunt has become a medical examiner — or, as the show’s producers like to say, an advocate for the dead bodies that are wheeled in and out of her office. “She had a certain amount of power and success and drive, and then she lost all that,” Delany said. “What happens when you lose all that success?” The question lingered in the air, as if the answer was still being developed. And it was. Television series are often won or lost in the first few episodes, after the main character has been created in the high-gloss pilot but as the creators are still learning about her. Giving not just life, but depth, to a character — creating one viewers will come back to see each week — is one of the most critical parts of the writing and production process.

Weeks earlier, in the “Body of Proof” writers’ room in Burbank, Calif., Sunil Nayar, an executive producer, and a team of writers refined a scene that had Hunt conducting an autopsy on someone she had seen once before as a patient, back in her neurosurgery days. To reinforce Hunt’s clinical demeanor, she announces that she recognizes the subject not from her face, but from a scan of her brain. A writer, Bryan Oh, interjected with a question. “Now is Megan the kind of person who would be making a kind of excuse about why she didn’t recognize this person?” he asked. “Or is she really beating herself up over it?” Nayar suggested that her reaction would fall somewhere in between. “This was a time in my life where the science mattered and the person didn’t,” he said, adopting Hunt’s perspective. In Hunt there’s a touch of the character played by Hugh Laurie in Fox’s long-running “House,” in that “they’re so good at what they do that they’re miserable,” David Platt, a director on the

‘Body of Proof’ When: 10 tonight Where: ABC

series, said. There is also a bit of Alicia Florrick, the litigator played by Julianna Margulies on “The Good Wife” on CBS, as both are strong female leads, a rarity on network television. Delany is joined by Jeri Ryan, as the chief medical examiner, Dr. Kate Murphy; and by Sonja Sohn and John Carroll Lynch, who play detectives. The conversations in the writers’ room not only build out Hunt’s back story, they also give new shape to the character. Months into the writing, Sam Humphrey, supervising producer on the show, said: “I’m still discovering her. I’m still learn-

ing about her.” He added with a laugh, “Of course you can’t go have coffee with her.” Sometimes during the struggle to divine their creation’s actions and motivations, the writers and producers bounce ideas off of Delany, who is also an executive producer. “In many ways she’s not that far off from myself, weirdly enough” Delany said. “Underneath it all, she is a nerd, and that’s what excites her — the science.” On a Friday last August in Providence, Murphey and Matthew Gross, an executive producer, were lounging in Gross’ office, talking through Hunt’s relationship with her mother, Joan Hunt, played by Joanna Cassidy. “Every time they’re together, they know there’ll be fireworks, yet they’re inextricably connected,” said Gross. The fireworks also allow for moments of humor, needed to balance the gravity of the cases. But those moments can’t come in the autopsy room, Gross said, because it would undercut Hunt’s role as a respectful advocate for the dead. Since the first episode Delany has toned down the abrasiveness of her character a bit. “Now it’s more, ‘She’s just trying to do her job,’ ” she said.

N N Snoop, Warren G attend Nate Dogg service LONG BEACH, Calif. — Rappers Snoop Dogg, Warren G and The Game joined family, friends and about 1,000 fans of Nate Dogg to remember the hiphop singer, who died this month of complications from multiple strokes. Relatives of Nate Dogg — whose real name was Nathaniel Dwayne Hale — decided that the ceremony at the Queen Mary Dome would not be open to the public as they previously wanted, but they made 1,000 tickets and shuttles available to fans. Hale started out singing in church choirs, then formed a group with Snoop Dogg and Warren G while the trio was in high school in Long Beach. His almost monotone vocal stylings anchored some of rap’s most seminal songs and helped define the sound of West Coast hip-hop on tracks usually produced by Dr. Dre and performed by rappers like Snoop Dogg, Tha Dogg Pound and Warren G. Late in life, Hale was plagued by legal and health problems, including at least two strokes in 2008.

6,000 fans attend free Spears mini-concert Six-thousand fans jammed San Francisco’s Bill Graham Civic Auditorium on Sunday afternoon to watch pop diva Britney Spears perform three songs from her new album, “Femme Fatale,” for a mini-concert to be broadcast today on ABC TV’s “Good Morning America.” The show, originally set as an outdoor event in the city’s Castro neighborhood, was moved indoors because of weather concern, but remained a free event. According to concert promoters Another Planet, nearly all the tickets secured online Thursday morning were used, a rarity in the concert world. “Good Morning America” co-anchor Robin Roberts and weatherman Sam Champion emceed the event.

Reese Witherspoon, Hollywood agent wed A spokeswoman for the actress says the “Walk the Line” star wed her fiance, Hollywood agent Jim Toth, Saturday in Ojai, Calif. Publicist Nicole Perna did not reveal details about the ceremony. Toth is an agent for Creative Artists Agency, which represents Witherspoon through another agent. The 35-year-old actress won an Academy Award for her portrayal of June Carter in 2005’s “Walk the Line.” She was previously married to actor Ryan Phillippe, with whom she has two children: 11-year-old daughter Ava and 7-year-old son Deacon.

Kiss bassist undeterred by Jerusalem bombing JERUSALEM — The legendary Kiss bassist Gene Simmons says that watching Jerusalem go through a deadly bombing this week has not changed his belief that Jews and Arabs can live in peace. The Israeli-born entertainer, on his first visit to his homeland

since leaving as a child 52 years ago, said he was visiting Yad Vashem, the country’s national Holocaust memorial, at the time of Wednesday’s blast. The memorial is about two miles away from the site. Simmons said the attack, which killed a female British tourist, was the work of extremists who can’t cope with the move toward freedom and democracy sweeping through the Arab world. “We can’t give these losers headlines,” he told The Associated Press on Friday. Simmons said he has already begun arrangements for multiple Kiss concerts in Israel. He said the band would also love to perform in the Arab world. But he said the band, known for its makeup, flamboyant outfits and pyrotechnics, would steer clear of politics when it performs. “It’s the greatest show on earth,” he said. Simmons is in Israel with his longtime girlfriend, actress Shannon Tweed, filming material for his reality show, “Gene Simmons Family Jewels.” He said he’s toured Jerusalem holy sites, ridden a camel and enjoyed watching Tweed, a statuesque former Playboy Playmate, float in the Dead Sea. “That rocks,” he said.

Bret Michaels sues over ’09 Tony incident LOS ANGELES — Bret Michaels sued CBS Broadcasting and the organizers of the Tony Awards on Friday over a 2009 mishap that resulted in him being hit in the head by a set piece, claiming the accident contributed to a brain hemorrhage that nearly killed him. The Poison frontman’s lawsuit claims he continues to deal with effects from the injury and brain bleeding that left him hospitalized last year. “Through his sheer will to live, to see his children grow up, Michaels was able to survive this trauma,” his lawsuit states. Michaels and Poison performed at the Tony Awards in June 2009. The singer suffered a busted lip and broken nose when he was whacked by a piece of scenery. He claims show organizers never explained that the set would be changing after the band performed, “Nothin’ But a Good Time.” He also claims the show could have prevented the incident from airing, but chose not to. Footage of the accident quickly became a viral hit on the Internet, and Michaels’ lawsuit claims clips have been viewed more than 27 million times on YouTube. Michaels was hospitalized in April 2010 and doctors found he had a brain hemorrhage. He later suffered a warning stroke, which the musician says nearly killed him. “Michaels was never told that the scenery piece would be descending or given any warning of the existence of the dangers it presented,” the lawsuit states. “The Tony Awards dropped a piece of the stage on Bret’s head, and then instead of doing the right thing, joked about it and played it off for ratings,” Michaels’ attorney, Alex Weingarten, wrote in a statement. — From wire reports

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Tuesday, March 29, 2011: This year, you will naturally open up to different perspectives. Someone often seems as if he or she wants to rain on your parade. Actually, what is going on has more to do with this person than with you. Make this year the one in which you stop personalizing problems. If you are single, you could find that others are drawn to you, but they could be, in your eyes, a real downer. How much responsibility are you going to take for someone else’s mood? You alone can decide. In general you tend to be lighter and easier. If you are attached, your sweetie can be difficult, but it works out ultimately. Learn not to react, and to let it go. It is but a phase. You can count on AQUARIUS. 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 negotiate your way through what many might feel is an untenable situation. You find your answer through conversations and caring. You might have wanted to do something very differently yet might not find the path immediately. Tonight: Only what you want. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH Extremes mark your decisions. You see life with renewed interest. You are in a period in which you will land on your feet no matter what. You could be overly tired and withdrawn. Push does come to shove very easily. Tonight: Up late. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH Reach out for someone at

a distance. Your ability to understand others emerges, not that you are always in sync. You push hard in many different areas of your life and cannot always integrate all that you must. Tonight: Follow the music. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Come forward and share more of yourself. A partner could help you a lot, as you do him or her. Some of you worry about an interaction that could become an enormous drain. A boss could be unpredictable yet lucky for you. Roll with his or her moods. Tonight: Share with a special person. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Defer to those around you, for now. You do like to be on center stage, but it is also important to be able to step back. A conversation is awkward at best, whereas communication flourishes with people at a distance. Relax. Tonight: Be with the one you love. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHH Pace yourself, knowing that a lot could change. You might feel restricted financially by a situation. Find a way out. How much do you hold yourself back? However you move forward, listen to a partner’s feedback. Tonight: Squeeze in some exercise. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHHH You could feel restricted, but most of the restrictions are selfimposed on some level. Do realize what you are doing rather than blame someone else. Opportunities come from partners, friends and associates. Tonight: Ever-playful. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH Work through a sense of negativity or wishing a situation was

otherwise. Push comes to shove with ease. You know what is happening. You understand a lot. Realize that much more could happen if you relax. A boss or associate sees your efforts and your potential. Tonight: Happily head home. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHHH Your optimism touches many people, but it most helps you. Keep asking and looking at key questions. Get to the root of what is occurring between you and a friend. Jealousy doesn’t always manifest itself in the same behavior. Every person is different. Tonight: Hang out with your pals. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH Listen to someone you respect. You will head in a new direction once you gain a perspective of what is possible. A boss is tight or difficult, but don’t decide that this issue has anything to do with you. Tonight: Your treat. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH Honor who you are, and act on your impulsiveness. Think in terms of gaining through spontaneity. You might try to see a situation in a different light, but right now you might have difficulty gaining that perspective. Remain on track. Tonight: Whatever suits your fancy. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHH Listen to advice from a partner who often seems very tense. Understand what is happening in your immediate circle. Investigate options that surround what might be an emotional decision. Open up a conversation. Tonight: Get some extra R and R. © 2010 by King Features Syndicate

C OV ER S T ORY

Vibrations Continued from E1 In 1997, Fleming headed off on a one-year trek around the world, “and it ended up being my spiritual awakening.” “I ended up in Nepal, in a healing center, for two months, going through an unbelievable experience with a Hindu healer and a Tibetan healer,” she said. Fleming’s family dates back to the mid-1800s in Eastern Oregon, she said. Three years ago, she moved from Seattle to Prineville. “I’ve found that Central Oregon has the kind of weather (and) climate that works for me energetically.” Fleming calls meeting Hanson through a common friend “a cosmic moment.” The two met for lunch one day and by the end of it, they’d decided to start A Spiritual Gathering together. Hanson, 68, also has a corporate past, having done sales and marketing for luxury hotels in San Francisco and Beverly Hills, according to her website. Today, she’s a spiritual teacher who leads self-discovery workshops through Hanson’s Haven, her 5acre retreat in Terrebonne. She told The Bulletin via email that A Spiritual Gathering provides “facilitated lessons on becoming an ‘intentional human.’ This means that each month we take a particular trait like compassion, non-judgment, unconditional love, self-love, etc., and provide handouts to go along with the lessons of the evening; there are also interactive group activities.” Held March 10, this month’s topic was “Become The Vibration of The Future,” all about tapping into energy waves (see “Next session” for details on the April event). Hanson said in an e-mail about the event that one’s psychic abilities kick in at higher vibrations and that “Karmically speaking, a higher vibration brings you closer to fulfilling your soul’s growth.” In truth, I wasn’t entirely sure what all that meant, but with mind ajar, I headed to Redmond’s Healthy Habits to find out.

‘Spiritual stuff’ I arrived at Healthy Habits, a comfortable space with a soothing decorative fountain just inside its entrance. Fleming and Hanson greeted the people trickling in. Among the early arrivals was Lyndon Onaka, of Bend. After he told me he was 52, he laughed at my surprised reaction. “See what this spiritual stuff does?” said Onaka, who looks a good bit younger than 52. “It’s quality of energy.” A friend, Onaka said, had told him about the Spiritual Gathering website, and he attended the first event. “I’ve been hooked on it since,” said Onaka, a musician, food server and bartender at Bend Golf and Country Club who moved to Bend from Hawaii a few years ago. He uses what he learns to support his daily life. He believes in “quality of energy in our thoughts.” “If you’re embarrassed, your body reacts. It turns to red, right? Can you imagine what else it does to your body? Whether it be positive or negative, it can influence,” he said. “We become what we think about.” Hey, I was sold when I found out he was 52. If spirituality is the fountain of youth, sign me up for life. Next, I accosted Ron Laws, a Central Oregon native flute player I’d met during my past life (so to speak) covering music for this newspaper. Laws told me he’d been spending time in Southern Oregon the last few years dealing with family matters. Soon enough, Fleming announced to the assemblage of about 20: “We’re just going to do a little toning here; bring your hearts into the room.” She walked around the crowd sitting in chairs arranged in a semicircle, gonging a bell for about a minute while participants sat quietly. She then gave a quick summary of A Spiritual Gathering and talked more about being an intentional human. “An intentional human is a person who is practicing becoming a better person. And by ‘better,’ what we mean is there are a lot of things that we do in society and our way of being that are unconscious,” Fleming said. “It’s a lot steeper of a journey than we think it is.” Women are habituated to giving away their energy to others, which leaves them depleted, she said. “Men are now going through a process of becoming more into their feminine energy.”

Walking bodies of energy “We are actually walking bodies of energy and light,” Fleming said. “We are the bridge-builders between an old age and a new age,

Blindfolded participants attempt to sense other participants’ energy during “Become The Vibration of The Future,” a seminar held earlier this month in Redmond. and we are having to change who we are and how we be to do that.” As “higher vibrations” come into play, we need to jettison the old stuff — pain, frustration, emotional issues — “because the light that you’re going into, or the vibration that you’re headed into, will not tolerate that. It’s not bad, it’s good. We are literally humans evolving into these higher-vibration beings,” Fleming said. “Whew,” she said toward the end of her almost breathless presentation. The crowd applauded. “The mind and the ego will fight all the way through,” Fleming said, “because the ego is beginning to lose ground. It’s beginning to lose its grip on its reality. Yes! Believe me.” When Hanson spoke next, she suggested we “try everything on like a jacket, keep an open mind, leave those barriers outside and, guess what, you don’t have to believe a word we say.” Hanson led us through a meditative exercise to bring us more fully into the room. Next up, the two guest speakers, who each got five minutes to do their thing. Janet Bruce spoke movingly of giving up her daughter for adoption in the mid-1960s. “Being that I was Catholic, I had to be shipped out of town and was forced to give the baby up for adoption.” Bruce said she prayed every night for her baby girl to find her. “I would visualize seeing my daughter for the first time. Hugging and looking into her eyes was on my mind often,” she said, adding that, unknowingly, she’d been practicing “The Law of Attraction.” If you’ve ever had someone tell you the merits of “The Secret,” a 2006 movie, as well as a book, you’ve been exposed to the Law of Attraction. In a nutshell, adherents believe you get what you wish for if you focus on what you want and are open to receiving it. Eventually, Bruce and her daughter met, “but that’s another five minutes,” she said, clearly disappointing a couple of folks eager to hear more details. Always leave your audience wanting more. That’s “The Law of Hungry for More.” Next, Ron Laws played a haunting melody on one of the flutes he makes, and spoke reverently about growing up in the Rogue Valley prior to highways coming through. “I think I failed the first grade two or three times,” he said. “I grew up in the mountains when the mountains still had voices. The rivers had voices. I played. I sang. I danced with the creatures.”

‘Going to get really weird’ Next, Fleming told us to get ready, “because tonight’s going to get really weird.” Tonight would be about learning about managing one’s own personal energy field and becoming aware of others’ energy fields, she said. Blindfolds would be involved. Fleming and Hanson gave us little stacks of paper and had half of us remain in our chairs and don the blindfolds. I was in this group. Fleming had the unseated group slowly pass by the seated. They would slowly move by one at a time, facing us, then spinning halfway around. While we were seated, folks wrote one word based on our energy readings. Bear in mind that they were supposed to get as close as possible to those wearing blindfolds, which meant that for a second or two, you had hindquarters directly in your blindfolded face. “You might feel like that person was draining your energy, or that their energy was trying to convince you of something. Their energy was trying to tell you that they’re a good person. Don’t be doing that, you guys,”

Fleming jokingly admonished. Someone asked what would become of the incriminating papers. “They’re going to be printed in The Bulletin,” someone said. I can’t say who because I was wearing a blindfold, but I certainly like the way she emitted energy. “No peeking!” Fleming told me. “I’m not. I’m trying to sense if someone’s there,” I said too defensively. If anything, I’d tied the thing too tightly, which made it hard to focus. To tell the truth, I can now barely read what I wrote. My handwriting’s bad enough when I’m using eyesight. I can make out a few words amid the chicken scratching: “change, kindness, green, generous, feeling, cigarette (someone there must have been a smoker), humor, bandage.” Then it was my group’s turn to stand and deliver our energy. As we moved around in a tight circle, mere inches from the faces of the seated, a few of us had to stifle our laughter whenever we made eye contact, probably because we were psychically telling one another, “Our hindquarters are in their blindfolded faces!” Next, we paired up to read another’s energy individually. I paired up with Laws. Once again, I donned the blindfold, while he sat across from me recalling a dramatic or emotional event. “I want you to feel that story emotionally in your body,” Hanson said. “Keep thinking about it in your body.”

‘Ooh, psychic man’ Gamely, I tried to tune in to his energy or thoughts. I wrote “fear, loss, pain, family, trauma, heartache, disconnection, betrayal, healing.” In a way, I felt like I’d cheated. Those words relate directly to

what Hanson had instructed Laws and the others to think about. Plus, he’d been speaking fondly about his childhood home earlier. Nevertheless, when I read the words I’d written to Laws, he said, “You’re absolutely right.” When the highway went through his childhood home, it divided the valley. “My parents turned into alcoholics, the river turned into a cesspool,” he said. “The current piece is I worked for quite a few years and created a beautiful home, a sanctuary where people would come. I would work with energy and playing the flute — this, that and the other thing. I recently lost everything,” he said. “And what you see is this man.” Fleming rang the gong again and asked if anybody had picked up on any of the energy elements. Several hands went up, and Laws said, “Oh, he was right on.” “Ooh, psychic man,” Fleming said. “Dangerous, if he’s a reporter,” Laws said. “I don’t even need to interview you,” I replied. The youthful Onaka said he recommends A Spiritual Gathering’s teachings to friends. And he doesn’t stop there: “I recommend it to the world. I think this is what we need now.” I can’t say I walked away fully comprehending what vibrations are all about, but I can tell you that along with interactive group activities and handouts, there was a lot of laughter and smiling among the 20 people in attendance. Plus, I got to keep the blindfold, which will totally come in handy in future reporting. David Jasper can be reached at 5 4 1-383-0349 or djasper@bendbulletin.com.

Time to make it

Small kitchen appliances can be a big help — but which ones? By Alison Highberger For The Bulletin

By Leon Pantenburg • For The Bulletin

pring should be busting out all over soon. Shouldn’t it? Haven’t we had enough winter weather? But as you search for outdoor tasks to get your gardening fix, this might be a

good time to look at the lawn. Maybe this year you want a lush, green lawn, but without the synthetic chemical fertilizers. How do you get started? There are a few things to do right now, before applying any fertilizers, that can help make that lawn green later.

Snow mold One lawn problem unique to cold climates is snow mold, says Linda Stephenson, owner of L&S Gardens in La Pine, and preventing it from developing now can eliminate a lot of chemical use and reseeding later. Snow mold is a fungus, she says, and is active at temperatures just above freezing in moist conditions. In Central Oregon, these conditions occur most frequently under snow cover or anything else that covers the grass, she added, such as fallen leaves and pine needles. “Snow mold damage becomes apparent as the snow melts and exposes the grass in late winter,” she said. “Symptoms consist of roughly circular patches (at least 3 to 12 inches) of dead and matted grass blades. In severe cases, these patches join together and may not be recognizable as individual circles.”

Thinkstock photos

Central Oregon lawns need their annual spring fertilizing to occur around the beginning of April, area experts say. Snow mold is most severe on the north sides of houses, she said, where snows lingers longest. As the lawn dries out in the

spring, Stephenson recommends fluffing the matted grass with a rake to encourage air circulation around grass blades and to make them dry out quicker. Rake and mow the lawn to remove any needles and grass debris, she added, and apply an appropriate lawn fertilizer. If these snow mold areas don’t green up with the rest of the lawn, Stephenson advises you to consider reseeding. Since snow mold is a fungus, a liquid or granular fungicide may be needed prior to seeding. “The most important way to prevent or reduce snow mold is the care of the grass at the end of the summer season,” Stephenson said. “As long as the grass continues to grow, it should be mowed.” Because snow mold activity is greatest beneath covers that maintain moist conditions, all leaves or other materials should be removed from the lawn. If possible, avoid piling snow deeply on the grass. See Lawns / F5

Cooking is more fun when you have the right utensils, cookware and small appliances to execute recipes to perfection. A few great knives and a variety of pots and pans are essential, but what about the plug-ins? We came up with a list of 40 small appliances (defining that as anything that’s smaller than a microwave oven), and weighed in with award-winning cookbook author and popular cooking teacher Marie Simmons to see which ones she thinks are most useful. Simmons is the author of more than 20 cookbooks, including “Things Cooks Love: Implements. Ingredients. Recipes.” It’s the first in a series of books from the Sur La Table cooking stores, headquartered in Seattle. Simmons told us that far too often, home cooks buy small appliances only to find they’re seldom used, take up precious space and often end up in the garage waiting for a yard sale. “You need to think hard before you buy something. Think, ‘how many times a week am I going to use something?’ and if the answer is more than once a week, it might be worth it,” Simmons said in a phone interview from her home office in Northern California. Some of Simmons’ favorite small appliances include her espresso maker, toaster, blender, immersion blender and electric teakettle. “It’s very individualistic, and I wouldn’t dictate what’s right or wrong,” she said. “I love my electric teakettle because I drink herbal tea all afternoon and into the evening, especially when the weather is cool, and I love that thing. I have a Chef’s Choice brand Smart Kettle. No more burned teakettles on the stove. It doesn’t take up a lot of room. I fill it up with water in the morning, it quickly heats the water and it’s neat,” she said. See Appliances / F4

Rainbow trout fresh from the water can be stored in an icy cooler until they are ready to cook.

In Central Oregon, fishing regulations vary greatly, depending on where you want to fish, the lure or bait allowed and the time of year. But, in general, many lakes and the Deschutes River are open to trout fishing year-round, and general trout season for most other streams opens on May 28. (I always take a copy of the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife fishing regulations with me on fishing trips — you don’t want to inadvertently do something wrong, and the regulations are complex.) While catch-and-release is a good philosophy and sound resource management, some areas are stocked specifically so anglers can keep and eat some. And with the right recipe, cooking trout can produce

delectable, simple dishes loved by kids and adults. All of my kids, and several of the neighbors’ kids, got started fishing at Shevlin Park, at the stocked trout pond behind Aspen Hall. A standard kid fishing rig of a push-button reel, a lightweight fishing rod, bright-colored monofilament line and orange-colored PowerBait is a great, virtually foolproof outfit that gets the kids catching fish almost immediately. Generally, if Shevlin Pond had been recently stocked, and the fish were biting, each child would have a limit of two fish, which we would bring home to clean and cook. These trout are usually between 8 and 10 inches long, a perfect size for a skillet or large pan. See Trout / F2

F2 Tuesday, March 29, 2011 • THE BULLETIN

F Trout Continued from F1 Kids learn quickly how to clean fish. It’s one of those tasks that goes with the pleasure of catching them. Cleaning small trout is simple: Just chop off the head with a large, sharp knife (unless the recipe specifies otherwise) and gut the fish. Remove the entrails, wash with water and wipe down with a paper towel. Great-tasting fish starts as soon as they’re caught. Here are some tips from Fish Alaska magazine to help make those fish as good to eat as they are fun to catch: • Fish flesh is very perishable, so keep fish alive as long as possible, and out of direct sunlight. A metal link basket or live box is best. A stringer can damage the flesh and increase chances of bacterial contamination. I usually take along a large cooler about

half-full of ice, and toss the fish in there. • Clean the fish as soon as possible, because time and heat can rob freshness and flavor. Gut and lightly rinse your fish to remove blood and bacteria. This will help prevent spoilage and will keep any parasites from migrating into the flesh of the fish. If making fillets, rinse the fish in clean cold water to remove blood, bacteria and enzymes. • If the trout have been frozen, thaw fillets in the refrigerator, in the microwave or under cold running water. Food defrosted in the microwave should be cooked immediately. Thawed fish should be used within one to two days. • Moist-heat cooking methods are unnecessary. Methods that develop flavor, such as broiling, baking or frying, are preferred. Cook fish until it flakes with a fork. Undercooking fish can be risky, while overcooking can re-

fishing with the kids. Leon Pantenburg can be reached at survivalsenselp@ gmail.com.

2 lemon slices Butter Small trout, head removed

Place the aluminum foil on a flat surface and put the trout on top. Sprinkle the fish, inside and out with salt, pepper and seasonings. Put lemon slices on top and a couple pats of butter. Wrap tightly. Place on hot grill or directly onto the coals of a campfire. Cook about 5 to 8 minutes on one side, and then turn. The fish is done when the flesh is opaque and flakes easily. This also makes a quick, easy meal on those nights when there isn’t a lot of time for cooking. Put the foil wrap in the oven at about 400 degrees and bake for about 10-15 minutes. Remove from the oven periodically to check and make sure it doesn’t overcook. Combine with a baked potato and salad, and you have a really fast, nutritious meal that uses the trout in the freezer.

FRIED TROUT Several pan-sized trout, with the heads removed 1 egg 1 C milk 2 TBS flour

1 C cornmeal Salt and pepper to taste Cajun seasonings Cooking oil

Combine flour, cornmeal, salt, pepper and various seasonings to taste in a paper bag. Combine the egg and milk separately. Dip the fish in the egg and milk mixture, then put in the paper bag with dry ingredients and shake until the fish are thoroughly covered. Put about ¼ inch of oil in a cast-iron skillet, and heat until hot. Quickly put the breaded fish in the hot oil. Cook about 7 minutes, then turn and cook another 7 or so minutes. When the coating on the trout is browned, remove and serve hot.

CRISP PARMESAN TROUT This is one of my go-to recipes for pan-sized fish. You can use this recipe for any fish, and the result is always delicious. This is also an excellent recipe for catfish. 1 TBS mild cooking oil 8 rainbow trout (cleaned, heads on each about 8 oz) 6 TBS freshly grated Parmesan cheese 2 TBS all-purpose flour ¼ tsp salt

Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Coat the bottom of a baking dish with the oil. Rinse the fish and pat them dry. Combine the cheese, flour, salt, pepper and paprika in a shallow dish. In another shallow dish, beat the egg with the milk and mix well. Using one hand (this saves a lot of mess), dip the fish in the egg and milk mixture, coating well. Transfer the fish to the cheese and flour mixture, picking up the fish with the other hand to dredge until wellcoated. The process is much easier and tidier if you use one hand to dip the fish in egg, and the other to dip them in the dry ingredients. Place the trout, leaving space between them, in the prepared baking dish. Bake until opaque through, neither too soft nor overly tough, about 15 minutes. Check for doneness by making a small slit right behind the head of one of the fish, or by using a fork to see if the meat flakes and is opaque throughout.

Trout foil wraps can be cooked on the grill, on the coals of a campfire or in a 400-degree oven.

Even the most casual of drinkers likely has a bottle of Angostura bitters stashed somewhere in the kitchen. But celery bitters? Blackstrap? Mexican mole? Memphis barbecue? They’re all out there, as are bitters meant to conjure specific drinks (Tiki), cultures (Creole; Thai; Moroccan), people (cocktail pioneer “Professor” Jerry Thomas) and even places (Boston). And, when used properly, the effects are anything but bitter. “The word ‘bitter’ is an unfortunate name for the product,” says Joe Fee, fourth-generation owner of Fee Brothers, established in Rochester, N.Y., in 1863.

ducing its flagship Old Fashion (Aromatic) bitters in the 1950s and now sells a dozen varieties of the alcohol and herb-based flavoring agents, including Aztec chocolate, West Indian orange and plum, introduced last summer. “Why in the world would anybody willingly put something called bitters into a drink and hope for a good outcome?” Fee asks. “Really, it all comes down to getting (the public) to recognize that there are taste receptors in the mouth: You’ve got salty, you’ve got sweet, you’ve got sour and you’ve got bitter. You really want anything that you’re eating or drinking to tickle all of those, or it’s going to taste shallow.” Just as a pasta sauce made from scratch should incorporate a balance of salty, sweet, sour and bitter flavors, so should a cocktail, Fee says. And 99 percent of the time, if a drink’s balance is not quite right, bitters will do the trick. As Fee says, “Bitters are the cure-all for your mixing woes.” Bitters are essentially the allspice of your home bar, which is why they’re worth stocking. Not to mention, they’re cheap, take up little space and a few drops go a long way. The original cure-all was the

LESS IS MORE Similar to vanilla extract or any other highly concentrated flavoring agent, a little goes a long way. Two to three drops will do it.

crept into British bars in the mid-1800s. Alongside the rising popularity of pink gin in England was the sazerac in New Orleans, accented with a similar gentianbased tonic: Peychaud’s. But unlike Angostura, which outlived scores of other 19th century tinctures to become a 20th century best-seller, Peychaud’s until very recently was a Louisiana anomaly. “Bitters in general, they’re hot,” says Kevin Richards, brand manager at New Orleans-based Sazerac Co., which manufactures Peychaud’s. “In terms of the growth rate, the past two to three years in particular are big.” He cites the classic cocktail renaissance as a major influence and, in tandem, 21st century bartenders’ curiosity and self-education. “As mixologists are more playful with cocktails, bitters are part of

Bitters are a great addition, but not necessary in all occasions. No need to reinvent the gin and tonic, for example. that rebirth,” he says. Not to mention, a major Angostura shortage in late 2009 sent drink-makers scrambling for alternatives. Peychaud’s, and smaller bottlers, picked up the slack. And while Richards can’t release sales figures, he confirmed that Peychaud’s experienced a double-digit growth rate over the past 12 to 24 months. Though the bitters industry is growing, is it relevant? Does one really need to stock grapefruit bitters in the home bar, let alone Jamaican Jerk (by The Bitter End) or Burlesque (by Bittermens)? And is it necessary for bartenders to dream up their own when the market is already saturated? As any cocktail enthusiast will tell you, yes. There’s a variety for a reason. Bitters are the finishing touch that can make a good drink great.

F 2 rules to legs: Cook ’em low; cook ’em slow By Barbara Mahany

OSSO BUCO

Chicago Tribune

Consider the slow-cooked leg. Not just any old leg, but the slow-cooked one. Too often, the limb is overlooked — dismissed as little more than a tough chunk of the beast or bird that makes for cheap gnawing, maybe a quick dip in the deep fry, but not fit for prime time or company. Such thoughts would be missing the point; the slow-cooked leg is a whole different story, and a succulent one at that. The surest way to detect the holy transformation that comes when low, slow oven meets notyet-tender leg is to go outside on a cold day and come in through the front door. Every hour or so, go outside and slip back in again. Your nose will be the thing that lets you in on the miracle taking place in the pan. With every passing interlude, the vapors rise and swirl and twirl you in their trance. “It’s almost magical. You take something cheap, and everyday, and unremarkable, and you turn it into something succulent,” said chef Suzanne Goin, owner of four Los Angeles restaurants, including the rustic Mediterranean kitchen, Lucques. Braising, she added, is nothing less than “a reliable home run.” It’s one that unfolds in the braising pan, where a seared leg, one that has been dry-rubbed overnight, perhaps, with herbs and spices and garlic and citrus zest, is just peeking out from a bath of stock and wine (or tomato, or some other acidic liquid), at a simmer that barely trembles, the heat’s so low. But through the hours, and thanks to the alchemy of heat and time and penetrating acid, the tough sinew or muscle of the much-exercised leg is breaking down, converting to gelatin, “and that’s what makes it so tender,” said Jean Anderson, author of “Falling Off the Bone” (Wiley, $29.95), a cookbook that explores the many ways tough can

Add all shanks; brown well, 5-7 minutes per side. Remove each to a large bowl. Add remaining oil and butter to pot; as soon as butter melts, add next 10 ingredients (yellow onions through lemon zest); cook, stirring often, until onions are limp and golden, about 10 minutes. Return shanks to pot along with accumulated juices; add tomatoes, broth and wine. Heat to a boil over moderate heat. Adjust heat so mixture barely bubbles; cover. Simmer slowly until veal nearly falls from bones, stirring occasionally and adding water if needed, 3½-4 hours. Cool to room temperature. Cover; refrigerate overnight. When ready to proceed, let Dutch oven stand 30 minutes at room temperature. Heat over medium heat until serving temperature, stirring occasionally and carefully so shanks remain intact, about 20 minutes. Discard bay leaves and lemon zest. Taste for salt and pepper, and adjust. Mix in parsley. Arrange osso buco on a heated large deep platter. Cover with juices; top each shank with a sprinkling of gremolata.

As the duck and Banyuls cook together, the wine permeates the meat and produces a rich ruby broth.

DUCK BRAISED IN BANYULS Makes 6 servings. Suzanne Goin, chef/owner of four Los Angeles restaurants, created this braised duck recipe using Banyuls, a fortified wine from the south of France. As the duck and Banyuls cook together, the wine permeates the meat and produces a rich ruby broth. You can braise the duck a day ahead; just remember it has to marinate at least 4 hours first. 6 lg duck legs, 8-10 oz each, trimmed of fat 1 TBS thyme leaves plus 6 whole sprigs 1 TBS freshly cracked black

pepper Grated zest of 1 orange 1 TBS coarse salt 2 TBS extra-virgin olive oil 1½ C diced onion

Season duck with the thyme leaves, pepper and orange zest. Cover; refrigerate 4 hours or overnight. Heat the oven to 325 degrees. Take the duck out of the refrigerator 45 minutes before cooking. After 15 minutes, season the legs on all sides with salt. Heat a large skillet over high heat 2 minutes. Add the olive oil; heat 1 minute. Place the duck legs in the skillet skin-side down in batches if necessary; cook until the skin is deep golden brown and crispy, 8-10 minutes. Turn the legs; reduce the heat to medium. Cook 2 minutes. Transfer to a Dutch oven or other braising pan, skin-side up. (The duck legs should just fit in the pan.) Discard half of the fat in the skillet; heat skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, fennel, carrot, thyme sprigs and bay leaf. Cook, stirring often to scrape up all the crusty bits, until browned, about 10 minutes. Add the Banyuls and vinegar. Turn the heat to high; heat the liquid to a boil. Cook until it has reduced by half, 6-8 minutes. Add 3 cups

½ C diced each: fennel, carrot 1 bay leaf 2 C Banyuls or port 2 TBS balsamic vinegar 3 to 4 C chicken stock or broth

of the stock; heat to a boil. Turn the heat to low; simmer 5 minutes. Add the broth and vegetables to the Dutch oven (the liquid should not quite cover the duck; add more stock if necessary). Cover the pan with foil and a lid. Cook in the oven until the duck is very tender, about 2½ hours. Carefully transfer the duck to a baking sheet. Turn the oven up to 400 degrees. Return duck to the oven to brown, 10-15 minutes. Strain the broth into a saucepan, pressing down on the vegetables to extract all the juices; discard vegetables. Skim the top layer of fat from the sauce. If necessary, reduce the broth over medium-high heat to thicken slightly, about 5 minutes. Season to taste. Transfer the duck to a serving platter. Spoon the juices over the duck.

H Hand mixer or stand mixer? Verdict: Depends on what you cook most often. “If you don’t bake much, and only occasionally whip potatoes, a hand mixer will meet your needs.”

Which gadget? Food processor or blender?

Marie Simmons, the author or more than 20 cookbooks, shares what she considers most useful for the home cook Associated Press ile photos

Verdict: Both, although Simmons uses a blender more frequently, preferring to chop by hand in most cases. When it comes to dips, though, she breaks out the food processor. As for soups, “The blender and the immersion blender are really good for things you need really smooth.” And the immersion blender (not pictured) has the added bonus of not requiring you to transfer the soup back and forth.

Toaster or toaster oven? Verdict: Toaster. “I can’t imagine life without a toaster. I prefer it to a toaster oven, which is cumbersome and takes up a lot of room. I have a toaster with wide slots so a bagel or roll fits in.”

Appliances Continued from F1 Simmons doesn’t use a toaster oven, but said “a toaster is a given.” “I can’t imagine life without a toaster. I prefer it to a toaster oven, which is cumbersome and takes up a lot of room. I have a toaster with wide slots so a bagel or roll fits in,” she said. A coffee maker is another “can’t live without” for Simmons and her husband. “We have an espresso coffee maker that we use every day for cappuccino. It’s a very good one that kind of looks like a space station. ... Some people like to grind their own coffee, but that’s not at the top of my list,” Simmons said. Simmons told us she uses her blender more than her food processor, but likes to have them both nearby. “I rarely use a food processor for chopping, because I prefer to hand chop, but if I need finely chopped nuts, I’d use it. For anything with moisture, like onion or celery, I prefer to chop by hand.

Small appliances A dizzying array of kitchen implements is available to the home cook, including but not limited to everything below: Blender Immersion blender Coffee maker Coffee/spice grinder Food processor Mini-food chopper Toaster Toaster oven Slow cooker Panini press

“I really like to make dips and spreads with the food processor, too. You can put in a can of chickpeas with lemon, fresh mint or garlic and olive oil and make a nice chunky/smooth dip to spread on crostini or use as a dip; whereas it’s hard to get those things in a blender to the consistency you need,” she said. An immersion blender is worth the price, according to Simmons. “The blender and the immersion blender are really good for

things you need really smooth. For a pot of soup, the immersion blender is amazingly fast, and it eliminates that pouring back and forth and dirtying another appliance,” she said. Simmons gives a thumbs up to slow cookers, and a thumbs down to the panini press. “Crockpots and slow cookers are popular for people who like a hot meal waiting for them when they come home. I don’t think we need a panini press. There’s noth-

ing like a good old iron skillet and a flat lid to make panini sandwiches on the stovetop,” she said. As Simmons glanced at our big list of small appliances (see above), she gave her thoughts on a few more: “I drink a lot of fresh-squeezed juice every morning, but I’ve never owned an electric juicer. Rice cookers are really terrific. If your family eats rice a few times a week, a rice cooker would absolutely be something to have, but it

does take up a lot of space. “Electric wok — a waste of time. Griddle? If you make pancakes every Saturday morning, that’s a great thing to have. My daughter uses her griddle to make grilled cheese sandwiches, and you can do a whole lot of them at the same time. It comes in handy,” Simmons said. She said a George Foreman grill would make sense if you wanted one chop or hamburger and don’t want to dirty your stovetop. She said it’d be especially useful for people who live alone. A home cook doesn’t necessarily need both a hand mixer and a stand mixer, but it depends on what you cook regularly. “I’ve had my KitchenAid stand mixer for about 15 years, and I don’t use it every week, but I wouldn’t do without it. If you don’t bake much, and only occasionally whip potatoes, a hand mixer will meet your needs,” Simmons said.

When it comes to deciding which of the mind-boggling assortment of small appliances on the market will work best in your home kitchen, Marie Simmons said just ask yourself a few questions before you buy. “What’s in my repertoire, what am I going to use this for and how often? Someone like me, with a wide range of recipes, might choose a different small appliance than someone who cooks once a week, or bakes a cake once every three months. It just depends on what you cook and what you like to cook,” she said. Alison Highberger can be reached at ahighberger@mac .com.

OVER 40 YEARS EXPERIENCE IN CLEANING AND RESTORATION

Size up what you own to see what you like By Mary Beth Breckenridge Akron Beacon Journal

When it comes to decorating, six little words often stand between dreams and reality: “I don’t know where to start.” It’s inertia rooted in fear — fear of making mistakes, fear of wasting money, fear of being judged unfavorably, interior designer Lauri Ward said. “People are terrified of decorating,” said Ward, who pioneered the concept of interior redesign, or decorating by rearranging the furniture and other items people already own. She thinks the fear is especially acute among women, who

often believe decorating ability should be inherent. “Just because you have two X chromosomes doesn’t mean you’re going to know how to decorate,” she said. So how do you get past that fear? Knowledge, Ward and other decorators say — but surprisingly, not so much knowledge about decorating. It’s more about knowing yourself, they said. Here are some suggestions to help you take those first steps. Noted interior designer Stephen Saint-Onge believes one of the things that scares people into decorating paralysis is not knowing what their style is. But style doesn’t have to have a label,

he said. Rather, style is just what appeals to you, what causes you to respond. That’s a central message of his new book, “No Place Like Home,” which is intended to help average folks find design inspiration and use that to improve their surroundings. He’s made a career of helping people fulfill their decorating aspirations through his television appearances and his House Calls column in Better Homes and Gardens magazine. Saint-Onge suggests homing in on your style by gathering a bunch of magazines and catalogs and then spending 20 minutes tearing out photos you like.

Don’t spend too much time analyzing your choices; just pick the photos you respond to. Later, you can spend more time studying the pictures you chose. Think about what you liked in each image, what feeling it gave you, what you noticed first, Saint-Onge said. Mark up the images or write notes on them to remind yourself about what works for you. You’ll probably start to see patterns — maybe furniture styles you’re drawn to, colors you like or room layouts you find appealing. “You start to learn to see things and see potential in your own space,” he said.

Potatoes, tomatoes, salad greens and sweet potatoes are four vegetables that can be grown right inside a bag of organic potting soil.

Tiny yard? No yard? You can still grow edibles By Sharon Thompson McClatchy-Tribune News Service

LEXINGTON, Ky. — We deserve a pat on the back. In general, we’re doing a much better job of eating local. But we can do better. We can grow our own vegetables. “Galloping Gourmet” Graham Kerr has had a long career as a cooking and nutrition teacher, but he admits: “I have cooked just about everything that grows, but I’ve never grown a thing I’ve cooked.” Kerr decided to start a garden plot and write about it. “Growing at the Speed of Life” (Perigee, $27.50) takes readers through the first year in Kerr’s kitchen garden. You say your backyard is too small for vegetable growing? Or you don’t have a backyard? That’s no excuse. You can grow potatoes, tomatoes or salad greens in a bag of potting soil, and most vegetables can be grown in containers, according to Rodale columnist Jean Nick. You can salvage old containers to use as planters: bushel baskets, wooden boxes, washtubs, plastic bags, large food cans, leaky buckets, garbage cans with holes, an old wheelbarrow, reusable totes or the kiddie pool. Green onions, radishes or beets can even be grown in a cake pan. They are fairly easy to handle and provide adequate space for root growth, according to the Texas AgriLife Extension Service. The size of the container will vary according to the crop selection and space available. The container should be at least 8 inches deep, and you can cut or drill holes in the bottom so excess water can drain freely. Pots from 6 to 10 inches in diameter are satisfactory for green onions, parsley and herbs. For tomatoes, peppers and eggplant, you will find that 5-gallon containers are the most suitable size; 1 to 2 gallon containers are best for chard and dwarf tomatoes. Adding about 1 inch of coarse gravel in the bottom of the container will improve drainage. The drain holes work best when they are along the side of the container, about ¼- to ½-inch from the bottom. Good soil is the single most important ingredient for a good garden. And a raised bed gives you an immediate advantage over a regular garden because you can fill it with a blend of soil that’s superior to the native soil in your yard. Soil that’s loose, and rich with nutrients and organic matter, will allow the roots of your plants to grow freely and will ensure

Four on the floor Here are four easy vegetable projects to try, grown right inside a bag of organic potting soil or a reusable shopping bag. To get started, buy a bag of organic potting soil and cut a few drainage holes in the bottom of it, then stand the bag where you want to grow your crop. (Put it in a watertight tray if you don’t want to stain the surface beneath.) Or use the largest tote bag you can find, or sew one yourself using breathable landscaping cloth. If the bag is not made of cloth, cut holes into the bottom and some into the sides to create good drainage. Fill the bags with well-draining potting soil, not soil dug out of the garden. At the end of the growing season, dump the bag of used soil into a raised bed or a more permanent container, or spread it in a corner of your yard that needs it.

POTATOES Potatoes are hardy, so it’s safe to keep the bag outside as long as the nighttime temperature doesn’t drop much below freezing. • Cut open the top of the bag. Tuck two small potatoes about 4 inches deep into the potting mix. If you live near a garden center, you might be able to buy “seed” potatoes; if not, or if you are looking for variety, try using a couple of small organic potatoes from your supermarket (potatoes that are already sprouting are ideal). Water to keep the soil moist but not soggy. Feed with a liquid organic fertilizer or compost tea (the liquid from soaking compost in water) every few weeks. • When flowers start to pop up on your plants, pull out a few “new” potatoes by rooting gently around in the soil with your fingers. Or harvest the whole lot any time, before the plants start to turn yellow. Harvesting is easy: Just tip over the bag onto a sheet of plastic and pick out the fruits of your labor (no digging required). If you have space, you might want to start a new bag every few weeks from very early spring through early summer, to extend your harvest.

TOMATOES • Prepare your grow bag as noted above, then insert two or three tall, sturdy sticks into the potting mix along one edge of the bag. Push them down to the bottom (be careful not to tear the bag). They should stick out of the top of the bag by 3 or 4 feet. • Plant a single tomato seedling near the center of the bag, leaving just the plant’s top four leaves and growing tip peeking out of the soil. The buried stem will send out masses of roots, and your little plant will really take off. • Tomatoes do not like cold weather, so wait until nighttime temperatures consistently stay above 40

that they have access to the water and nutrients they need to sustain healthy growth. The National Gardening Association says to use only sterilized potting soil. Garden soil can contain diseases and might not be well drained. Because you’re planting in such a small space, you’ll have to be conscious of watering and fertilizing regularly. Water with drip irrigation or by hand whenever the soil is dry 4 to 6 inches deep. Fertilize every two weeks with a water-soluble fertilizer for vegetables, or add controlled-release fertilizer at planting time, supplemented with a water-soluble fertilizer when needed. For large

degrees before you move your bag outdoors. Should a late frost threaten, toss an old sheet over the stakes to protect your tender sprouts. Water and feed as for potatoes. Use twine or strips of cloth to tie the vines to the sticks so the plant will grow upward.

SALAD GREENS • Lay the bag on one of its flat sides and poke drainage holes all over the top. Flip it over onto the now-holey side, smooth the bag fairly flat, and use a sharp knife or scissors to cut out a rectangle about two-thirds the size of the top of the bag. • Plant lettuce, spinach, radish or other seeds in the exposed soil mix, following their packets’ instructions. Water and feed as for potatoes. • Harvest just the outside leaves of the plants to extend your yield. As the plants keep growing, you can keep harvesting. Or plant a seed or two when you remove a whole plant, so you’ll reap another round of greens. You can start growing greens (and radishes, too) in very early spring, as soon as the nights don’t drop much below freezing. Greens appreciate some shade in the heat of summer, so during the hottest months, you might want to move your salad bag to a shady spot.

SWEET POTATOES • Sweet potatoes require a long growing season, about 100 to 140 days, and they need lots of soil space to grow. Fill the largest tote bag you can find with well-draining potting soil, not soil dug out of the garden. • The plants themselves are produced from cuttings called slips. You can make an unlimited number of slips from a single sweet potato bought at a market or organic food store. Start making them in early spring, about a month before the last frost in your area, so you can meet the plants’ long-season demands. Simply stand the potato in a jar of water so about a third to a half is submerged. Set it in a sunny windowsill, where it will form little shoots and leaves within a few weeks. When the shoots are about 6 inches long, carefully twist or “slip” them off of the potato. • Some gardeners put these slips into water or very wet sand to produce roots before planting, but the rootless slips can be placed directly into soil. The trick is to keep the soil moist (not soggy) and the bag or pot out of the hottest sun until the plants are established. • About two or three slips are all you need for a typical tote bag. Don’t forget that sweet potatoes are tropical and do not like cold weather or frost. Wait until well after any danger of frost in your area has passed before setting the plants outdoors. • Just before the first frost in the fall, turn the bag over onto a plastic sheet, or dig out the tubers.

containers, mulching with straw or bark conserves moisture. One thing to keep in mind is that black containers heat up in the sun, and the plant roots don’t like that. The amount of sun or light on your growing area is probably the most important limiting factor, according to Gardeners.com, so check out the light situation first, remembering that you can move the containers around to catch the sun if necessary. If the amount of sunlight is limited, try lettuce, cabbage, kale, leeks, spinach, swiss chard and/or mustard greens (also herbs such as parsley and chives). Root crops such as green onions, beets, carrots and turnips need more light

but tolerate some shade. With full sun (at least six hours) you can grow snap beans, cucumbers, eggplant, onions, peppers, potatoes, tomatoes and squash. Each year, seed companies come out with new vegetable plant varieties that are suitable for container gardens. Look for key words like bush, compact and space saver. Information on planting a small backyard garden is abundant on the Internet, and many sites will provide detailed instructions along with how much soil to buy, or how long the planks should be for a raised garden bed. If that’s too strenuous, take a trip to a nearby farmers market.

Area experts agree that most lawns will need their annual spring fertilizing around the beginning of April. If you’re interested in going organic, there is a large line of natural lawn fertilizers available locally, says Cindy Jeffers of Landsystems Nursery in Bend. “With organics, you’re feeding the soil, not the plant,” Jeffers said. “You’re not just putting nitrogen on the plants. Nitrogen is absorbed by the plant and greens them up immediately, but it doesn’t add to the soil.” Organic fertilizers are designed to create a healthy soil structure, she added, which in turn makes plants grow better. But don’t just apply any organic fertilizer and expect immediate results. The first step is to apply a soil activator, Jeffers said, which is actually a soil conditioner, made primarily of charcoal. This product helps create an environment where the organic fertilizer will be “activated” to be best used by the plants. Next, apply the organic fertilizer. Like any fertilizer, she said, it should be matched to the location, grass type and soil

conditions. Ask a nursery professional what type is best for your property. Organic fertilizer is made from a variety of natural materials, Jeffers said, including various animal manures, corn gluten and different plant byproducts. Organic fertilizers cost more than synthetic fertilizers, Jeffers said, but as the demand grows, the prices for organics are becoming more competitive. “Organics help make a healthier lawn. The turf will be stronger, so it will be more disease-resistant,” Jeffers said. “This helps keep you from adding other chemicals to take care of pests and plant diseases.” Organic fertilizer won’t make a difference on your lawn’s watering needs, Jeffers said, but the runoff from an organic lawn is much better for the environment. “The runoff from some of the perfect lawns can be almost toxic,” Jeffers said. “With organic fertilizers, your kids and pets can play on the grass without you being worried about them being harmed. As more and more people realize the advantages of organic fertilizers, we’ll see how they are much better for the overall environment.” Leon Pantenburg can be reached at survivalsenselp@ gmail.com.

Your garden: Time to think spring cleaning The Washington Post For the vegetable gardener, there is something deeply satisfying about clearing away last year’s detritus and creating a clean slate for the new season. Growing beds should be separated from paths, and beds should be no more than 4 feet wide. This allows you to work the soil on either side of a bed without stepping into it. Human feet will quickly squeeze the vital air and moisture out of soil. Small beds with good soil can be cultivated with a threeprong cultivator. This will loosen the top few inches of soil, which then can be raked smooth. Larger beds that have not been dug for a while probably will be compacted, depleted in organic matter and in need of soil fluffing and replenishment. Finished, screened compost or well-rotted manure (never fresh) can be added. I like to add a few cups of wood ash and bone meal and a bag of powdered limestone. Spread the amendments evenly on the surface before you start to dig, so that you can turn them in. I prefer a high-quality, well-balanced garden fork

for digging, though a shovel or spade will do the job, too. Work backward in rows to avoid stepping on newly dug soil. As you turn and break the soil, pull last year’s dead vegetation and, most important, any weeds. Use a hoe to finely chop soil clods, and rake or hoe the bed smooth. Apart from bed preparation, weeding is the most important step in the spring cleanup. Annual winter weeds are now maturing and must be pulled before they flower and seed. The most common culprits are henbit, chickweed, annual bluegrass and hairy bittercress. The safest, most organic approach is to pull the weeds by hand or slice them with a sharp hoe. In beds that are being dug, simply break apart the soil and remove entire weeds by hand, roots and all, and throw them in a 5-gallon bucket. Weed paths before laying a seasonal mulch. I like to use a thick layer of wood chips; others in my community garden prefer straw. Reset any edging that has come loose during the winter. Now is also the best time to repair fences, gates and arbors.

Plan ahead when Cinnamon rice adds to nearly any meal planting trees By Julie Rothman

larly well with most Indian or Mediterranean food.

The Baltimore Sun

MARTHA STEWART My love affair with trees began many years ago when I started gardening in earnest in my yard at Turkey Hill in Connecticut. I realized the importance of trees in a residential landscape and tried hard to learn which ones would grow well, lending beauty and importance to the land. I read all sorts of landscape books, including a very early one written by Humphry Repton describing his designs for some of the greatest parks surrounding many of England’s stately homes. Repton’s cleverly painted overlays of what could be, placed over accurate drawings of what existed, were an early and extremely successful tool. They were the precursor to today’s architectural computer-aided design drawings, which give us the same preview. When I moved to the farm at Bedford, N.Y., I spent a great deal of time studying my acreage, determining what trees were needed where and which plantings would most enhance the vistas. I visited many nurseries, picking trees that appealed to me, were appropriate to the area, and would be necessary for foliage color, impact and practical functions, such as wind breaks and screening. Realizing I would need thousands of trees before I completed the job of landscaping and reforestation, I focused on the more important locations — areas near buildings, along drives, and close to gardens and pastures. I estimate that we have dug close to 4,100 holes and planted that many small, medium and large trees. Some lessons I have learned while planting new trees: Young, freshly dug, well-grown trees with a 2- to 4-inch caliper are excellent candidates for landscape planting (rather than mature, large, more expensive specimens). Many trees are sold “ball and burlap”; with these, slide the tree into the hole, cut away as much of the wire basket around the root as you can and push the burlap down to the bottom of the hole. Dig holes correctly, amend soil and feed young trees with a fertilizer designed for use at planting time. Water carefully and well when planting, as well as several times a week for its first summer. Plant a new tree near a large declining important tree before the declining tree dies.

How to plant a container tree A container-grown tree is much easier to plant than a traditional ball-and-burlap one. By planting in spring, you ensure that the roots have time to become established before winter’s chill.

Judith Fieldhouse, of Hampstead, Md., was looking for a recipe for making cinnamon rice. She said it was served in a local restaurant as an accompaniment to duck — “the duck was very good, but the rice was fantastic” — and she has never been able to figure out how to make it. Karen Brannick, of Bel Air, Md., sent in a recipe she had from a cooking club class at the Maryland Golf & Country Clubs that she thought might be close. This tasty side dish would be a simple addition to any meal. It would certainly be wonderful with poultry, and I also think it would go particu-

When choosing your trees, think beyond plain green leaves. Bright blooms like red horse chestnut bring a pop of color to the landscape. When you plant a tree, it is better to think of the job as preparing a site rather than merely digging a hole: • Using a sharp spade, dig a hole about three times the diameter of the container and just deep enough to let the tree’s buttress, the swelling at the base of the trunk, sit about 1 inch above the soil surface. Then I add a few shovels of compost to the soil and thoroughly mix it in to provide a homogenous growing medium. • To remove the tree from the container, grasp the trunk and slide off the plastic pot. Firmly tap on the container to release any stubborn areas. • Container-grown trees must have their roots teased apart to prevent them from continuing to grow in circles. Use a tool or your hands to gently remove the soil and separate the roots. • Position the tree in the hole, taking time to place the plant’s best side outward. Backfill the hole using the same soil you dug out. • I add Bio-tone Starter by Espoma (available at nurseries) when I plant a new tree, sprinkling it around the edge of the root ball according to the package directions. • Water thoroughly right after planting. Sculpting a “water well” helps prevent runoff so water drains directly into the plant. Provide at least 1 inch of water each week for the tree’s first season. Questions should be addressed to Ask Martha, c/o Letters Department, Martha Stewart Living, 601 W. 26th St., 9th floor, New York, NY 10001.

This soup of mushrooms, barley and vegetables makes for a filling meal.

Savory mushrooms and hearty barley By Noelle Carter • Los Angeles Times

My husband and I love the mushroom barley soup at Junior’s Deli in West Los Angeles. Could you possibly get the recipe so we can make it at home? Thanks.

Junior’s was happy to share the recipe for this hearty soup, which we’ve adapted below.

JUNIOR’S MUSHROOM BARLEY SOUP Makes 4 to 6 servings. Note: Adapted from Junior’s Deli in West Los Angeles. ½ C dried mushrooms, preferably shiitake or porcini 1 C boiling water ¾ C peeled and diced carrot

¾ C diced onion ½ C diced celery 1 C pearl barley 4 C water, more if needed

In a large, heavy-bottom saucepan or small pot, soak the dried mushrooms in the boiling water until hydrated, about 15 minutes. Stir in the carrot, onion, celery and barley, along with the water and broth. Bring the liquid to a simmer over high heat.

4 C beef or chicken broth, more if needed Salt and pepper

Reduce the heat to a gentle simmer, loosely cover and continue to cook for about 2 hours, until the barley is tender and the flavors are developed. Add additional water or broth to the soup to thin as desired, and season to taste with salt and pepper. This makes about 1 quart of soup.
