Put On'FOr Sale' SignS• Rural Oregon should betarget for grant programs,lawmaker says

For WesCom News SerwceBy Pat Caldwell

BAKER CITY — A prominent Repub­lican state lawmaker wants to know whythe governor's office will inject severalhundred thousand dollars for Portland­area start-up businesses while he believesrural Oregon continues to struggle.Sen. Ted Ferrioli, the John Day

legislator whose district includes BakerCounty, said this week that the plan an­nounced by Gov. Kate Brown's office lastmonth to earmark $250,000 throughBusiness Oregon, the state's economicdevelopments agency, to help financemetro area start-up businesses sendsthe wrong message to rural areas."Helping start-ups is a great idea, but

let's be a little bit more bipartisan andshow a little more partiality," Ferrioli said.

He has called on Brown to allocate$500,000 for rural and suburban areas.

Chris Pair, a spokesman for Brown,said similar initiatives for rural Oregonare already in the planning stages.

'There is a similar program, the me­chanics of it are the same. We are plan­ning on launching it this fall," he said.

The $250,000 grantwill help finance thenew Indusive Starlup Fund. The StartupFund, craM by the Portland Develop­

— State Sen. Ted Femoli, Rdohn Day

ment Commission, will be available forinvestmentin Portland-area businessesbeing started by women and people ofcolor.

Ferrioli said while the effort to helpbusinesses established by underrepre­sented groups is an excellent idea, healso wonders why rural Oregon appearsto be left out in this case.

"Start-ups are needed everywhere inOregon," he said."There are 35 othercounties that have a need. Maybe weshould put $250,000 in rural Oregon forstart-ups?"

Ferrioli said the situation is fiustrating."I might be a little cynical. The politi­

cal power seems to reward itself at ev­ery opportunity. Maybe Kate (GovernorBrown) really doesn't need rural votes ifshe gets urban votes," he said.

Ferrioli said there is a more pressingneed in rural Oregon for such initiativesthan in the Portland area.

"There is a lot of stuff you can do, but$250,000 will, arguably, disappear intothe metro area," he said."In any case,that money could actually help people inplaces where they have fewer options."

Ferrioli said if the ultimate test iswhich part of Oregon needs investmentthe most, then rural Oregon is clearly

"IfyOu are gOing to gO Where the PrOblemS are the greateSt, WhereunemPlOymentiS ChrOniCally higheSt and WhereitiS mOre diP Cult tofindcapital, then I thinkyou end up in rural Oregon."

the place with the greatest need."Ifyou are going to go where the prob­

lems are the greatest, where unemploy­mentis chronically highest and where itismore diKcult to find capital, then I thinkyou end up in rural Oregon," he said.

Oregon state Rep. Cliff Bentz, theOntario Republican who also repre­sents Baker County, said helping smallbusinesses is key to a vibrant economicfuture. He said that although he isn'tfamiliar with the investment programin Portland, there are an array of pro­grams designed to help small businessesget off the ground.''We have many different program

that are designed to help start-ups,"Bentz said."I would say anything wecan do to try to understand the chal­lenges that are facing new business weneed to address. If it is a lack of capitalwe need to look at that carefully and seewhat we can do," he said.

Ferrioli said initiatives like the Port­land-area start-up grant endowmentare a hard sell in places like EasternOregon.

''When information like that goes torural Oregon, I think it is no wonderrural voters are demoralized," he said.

Of course, a school building is more thanjust a collec­tion ofbricks and mortar. A school building is also greatteachers, a terrific sta6; students energized to learn andparents supporting them every step of the way.

Still, it's good to learn that seven new classroomsare soon to be added to Island City ElementarySchool. The construction project is being paid for asa small part of the $31.85 million bond for mainte­nance and capital construction La Grande SchoolDistrict voters approved in November. The class­rooms are much needed. One reason is the schoolis going to all-day kindergarten, part of a state

mandate to get children better prepared for thechallenges of elementary school, and their educationbeyond. The addition will enable many children to

go to school closer to their homes. This year, studentsin the Island City Elementary attendance area areattending kindergarten at Willow Elementary.

Good buildings mean better schools. Environmentis important for learning. It's hard to teach andhard to learn when buildings are crumbling aroundstudents' ears, or when existing classrooms, however

nice, are overcrowded with students not getting thepersonal attention they deserve. Such conditionscontribute to health and safety problems and impairthe quality of teaching and learning.

La Grande School District voters, last November,defied the odds. Many school bonds regularly godown in Aames. Unless assured the investment willpay dividends, most people will vote against highertaxes. The voters are paying close attention to theirown personal budgetary bottom line and ability topay their own bills on time.

It's wise, however, to invest in education. Today's

students are tomorrow's leaders. They are tomorrow'slawyers, dentists, teachers, small business ownersand police oKcers. Students should be given every op­

portunity to succeed, and part of that is placing themin an environment suitable for learning, growing andbecoming good citizens of the community.

Another benefit of the site plan announced by theschool district is to boost security. All classroomsat Island City Elementary will be adjacent to eachother, which makes things safer for students andteachers. As much as we don't like to think aboutit, security is critical in the 21st century school. Toomany senseless attacks have occurred throughoutthe country to ignore this risk. Anything that canbe done to make students, teachers and staA'safercontributes to a more positive learning environment.

Sure, the school district could have chosen, or beforced by budget, to go the modular route for class­rooms, as so many districts have had to do statewide.

That would have been unfortunate. Stick-builtclassrooms have better air circulation and are moresolidly built, which provides a better environment for

students to thrive.New classrooms will also need less maintenance

and fewer repairs, at least in the first few years oftheir existence. And they send a message to studentsthat the community considers education important,a top priority, as we prepare the leaders of tomorrow.

Nikki Haley pull it back?Trump, the Republican presidential

Then there is Haley, young and char­ismatic, often mentioned as a vice presi­dential prospect. The child of Indianimmigrants, she is the first woman andthe first member of a minority groupto be governor of South Carolina. Sheresponded admirably and forcefully tothe police killing in her state of WalterScott, an unarmed black man, and shechampioned legislation to put camerason police officers statewide — the first ofits kind.

She wept with the mourners after amassacre at a black church in Charles­ton, and she led the subsequent effortto remove the Confederate flag &omthe state capitol grounds. She told herchildren about Cynthia Hurd, one of theCharleston victims, whose motto was to"be kinder than necessary."

"That's now my life motto," Haley, 43,said Wednesday afternoon.

Nobody ever mistook that for Trump'smotto. And Haley, although kinder thanshe needed to be, visited Washingtonon Wednesday with some sharp wordsfor the man who has become the party'sstandard-bearer.

"Every time someone criticizes him,he goes and makes a political attackback," Haley said when asked aboutTrump during an appearance at theNational Press Club."That's not whowe are as Republicans. That's not whatwe do.

Americans, Haley said, "want toknow they're sending someone up tothe White House that's going to be calmand cool-tempered and not get mad atsomeone just because they criticize him.We would really have a world war ifthat happens."

She also had advice for Trump on hisimmigration stance, which includes end­ing birthright citizenship and building awall along the Mexican border.

"Republicans need to remember thatthe fabric of America came &om theselegal immigrants," she said."If you wantto talk about tackling illegal immigra­tion, then let's talk about it, but wedon't need to attack so many millions ofpeople who came here ... and did it theright way, like my parents."

Haley wasn't finished.'Why are yougoing all the way to this side and talk­ing about birthright citizenship whenyou haven't even talked about illegalimmigration itselP.' she asked."Are youas a candidate going to commit to put­ting troops along the border?" She alsocited the high cost of drones, planes, anddetention and deportation capabilities,which would be needed. Concluded thegovernor: "Don't say you're just going tobuild a wall, because a wall's not goingto do it."

It was at times implicit and at timesexplicit, but it was clearly a rebuke ofTrump from a lonely voice of tolerancewithin the party. More of this is needed,and fast, if the GOP is to avoid Trump'ssiren call to alienate everybody but theparty's shrinking demographic base.Jeb Bush is finally challenging Trump,but for being insuKciently conserva­tive. Trump's rivals remain hesitant tocondemn his winks at bigotry.

Haley is no squish. A darling of thetea party movement when she was firstelected in 2010, she noted Wednesdayher support for voter I.D. laws, whichare often viewed as a way to suppressAfrican American voters, and sheblamed the Black Lives Matter move­ment for fomenting violence. But sheoffered a conciliatory racial messagethat could be a balm for a party alien­ating more non-white Americans bythe day with its outlandish presidential

She spoke of the discrimination herfamily faced when she was young, andof the need for an"equality agenda" forAfrican Americans.'There still remainthe unfinished goals of the civil rightsmovement, and the civil rights move­ment is a critical part of the Americanmovement, and the American story.

The commissioners had to recessthe public hearing because there weremore items to discuss. The hearing willcontinue with more public input at10:45 a.m. Sept. 16 at the Joseph Annex.

Directly following the HB 3400public hearing, the commissionersdecided unanimously to approve ChrisArvidson's request to become anotherresource for the Grande Ronde Hospitalas an Advanced Life Support transport.

Arvidson's wait to get his business,Med Transport, up and running wasextended because of a request from theLa Grande Fire Department that thecommissioners hold off on the decisionuntil the department could gather ac­curate numbers of how many transportswere coming out of the hospital.The fire department has been

the only ground transport availablepreviously and did not want to lose thepossible revenue if there was a largenumber of transports coming out of thehospital.

However, Fire Chief Bruce Weimeradmitted there have been sta5ngchallenges in the past interfering withthe department's ability to transportpatients.

Commissioner Jack Howard clarifiedfor the fire department that Med Trans­port is just one more resource availableto the hospital, and this does not meanthe department will lose all transports.

As the meeting continued, the com­missioners considered a request fromthe Shelter From the Storm's board ofdirectors that the county contribute tothe purchase of the building the shelteris housed in on Island Avenue.

Richard Kenton, owner of PlantworksLLC, a greenhouse business near Covebut in the county's jurisdiction, wasamong those who requested the com­missioners not opt out. He said he wouldconsider selling recreational marijuanain order to boost his business.

"I'm interested in growing marijuanaas a crop," Kenton said."I'm not inter­ested in selling marijuana to children."

Some of the anti-marijuana groupsaid children can easily get their handson marijuana, and the problem will onlyincrease if the communities in the areadon't opt out.

''Why force people in Union County todrive somewhere else to get marijuana?"asked Kenton."If we opt out, then noone comes to the community. If we optin, then that's one more dollar to these(Union County) services."

Joan Smith countered that theOregon Liquor Control Commission hasnot passed its regulations regarding rec­reational marijuana and the communityisn't equipped to have it available to sell.

'The rules aren't ready," Smith said."Nationally, it's illegal. Marijuana isn'tlike prohibition — it's never been legal­ized before. It's going to get to the kids.The police aren't ready for this."

However, Harvey arguedthere have been cases of m ari­juana overdoses in the past.

The council voted againstpresales and then venturedinto Oregon House Bill 3400territory, discussing thepossibility of opting out ofthe sale and production ofmarijuana altogether withinLa Grande city limits.

City Planner Mike Boquistsaid the council basicallyhas three options: First, optout completely without theintention of ever allowing forthe sale and production ofmarijuana. Second, opt outwith the intention of using itlike a moratorium and even­tually opt back in — thoughit is uncertain whether thecity would be able to receive

"Are we making a decisionfor the immediate futureor one for five to 10 yearsfrom now?a Clements asked."There is significant illegalactivity on the black marketas itis."

More than an hour and ahalf of testimony, combinedwith the presale publichearing, was received bythe council. The testimonywas mostly from communitymembers who were againstthe opt out.

Bunions:

People who go toe-to-toe withfoot problems may be able toavoid suffering the agony of "dafeet."An increasingly common foot

problem, especially a m ongwomen, is bunions. A bunion isan enlargement of the joint at thebase of the big toe — the metatar­sophalangeal (MTP) joint — thatforms when the bone or tissue atthe joint moves out of place. Thisforces the toe to bend toward theothers, causing an often painfullump of bone on the foot.Since this joint carries a lot of

the body's weight while walking,bunions can cause extreme painif left untreated. The MTP jointitself may become stiff and sore,making even the wearing ofshoes difficult or impossible.Symptoms of bunions include:• Development of a firm bump

on the outside edge of the foot, atthe base of the big toe;• Redness, swelling, or pain at

• Student servicesworkers amongpotential strikers

The ObserverBy Dick Mason

Stalled contract nego­tiations may spur studentservices workers at Oregon'spublic universities, includ­ing the approximately 100employed at Eastern OregonUniversity, to strike.

The possibility of a strikebecame real in late Augustwhen an impasse was de­clared following a bargainingsession between the unionrepresenting the state's 4,400student services workers atpublic universities and theUniversity Shared ServicesEnterprise. The USSE ismade up of representativesof all seven of Oregon's stateuniversities and was createdby the Legislature after theOregon University Systemwas disbanded July 1.

It was the USSE thatdeclared an impasse in Au­

gust, according to the SEIU,the union representing thestudent services workers atOregon's public universities.Declaration of an impassesets in motion a timeline thatcan lead to a strike.

"It is kind of a scary thing.I'd like to believe we canavoid a strike. A strike woulddo no good for anybody," saidBud Hill, president of theEOU chapter of SEIU Local503.

Hill was speaking at ameeting of EOU studentservices employees outsideInlow Hall on Wednesday.Employees came to receive acontract negotiation updateand discuss strike prepara­tions. Baked goods and quiltswere sold at the sessionby EOU student servicesemployees to raise fundingfor a strike hardship fund.The money raised will go tohelping EOU employees copewith a loss ofpayif there isa strike. Student servicesworkers include librarians,financial aid office workers,

A layer of white colored rock is a subtle reminder of how climate has changed in the Grande Ronde Valley over time.Earlier this year, Gov. Kate Brown declared Union County under drought conditions from lack of a bigger snowpack.Rivers across the region have seen a decrease in depth.

office specialists, physicalplant workers and manyothers.

The SEIU and the USSEare divided on issues regard­ing wages and benefits. Theemployees union is askingfor a 3 percent cost oflivingincrease while the USSE isofFering an increase ofbe­tween 1-V4 percent and 1-V2percent, according to a factsheet provided by the SEIU.

Overtime is another issuethat has employees con­cerned.

JOSEPH — There maybe a folk school in the arts­oriented city of Joseph'sfuture.

Greg Hennes, whoalready has impressed localresidents with his con­tinuing restoration of thecentury-old Jennings Hotel,has a vision for a crafts­oriented institution in along-neglected city-ownedbuilding.

"This has been a dreamof mine for many years,"Hennes told the city councilThursday night."I'm readyto work on it now."

Hennes is eyeing aformer water-drivenpowerhouse at Joseph CityPark, an all-brick structurestanding unused behind aPacific Power substation onMill Street.

Students and adultscould learn carpentry, fibercrafts, carving, bronze cast­ing, boat building and othertraditional techniques fromlocal experts at the school,Hennes said.

Hennes himself is a folkschool graduate, havingtaken classes at NorthHouse in Grand Marais,Minnesota, where helearned timber traming.He's using that skill inhis work at the Jennings,which he bought this yearand is turning back into aboutique hotel from yearsas apartments and offices.

He asked councilors toconsider selling or leasingthe powerhouse buildingto him. He estimated that"getting it up and running"would cost around $50,000.

"The economic oppor­tunity is huge," Hennes

An area closure surround­ing the footprint of the Phil­lips Creek Fire on nationalforest land, west of PhillipsCreek Road, has been reducedto a smaller area of the fire.

This area is still a majorconcern for public safety be­cause of fire-weakened treesand unstable slopes.

'The area closure ichangelallows travel on open forestroads within and surround­ing the fire perimeter whileprohibiting access into themost unsafe and unstable

burned area," said MikeRassbach, district rangeron the Walla Walla RangerDistrict. Travelers shouldrefer to the Motorized VehicleUse Maps for informationon the current open forestroad system, according to aUmatilla National Forestnews release.

The Phillips Creek Firestarted about a month agoand burned 2,601 acresnorthwest of Elgin andis currently 85 percentcontained.

The U.S. Forest Serviceis continuing to patrol thefire perimeter and mop upinterior hot spots until thefire is declared out. The clo­sure will be posted at theroad intersections whereit still is in effect. A copy

of the area closure map isavailable at all UmatillaNational Forest offices aswell as on the UmatillaNational Forest websitewww.fs.usda.gov/umatilla.

"People should use cautionwhen entering a recentlyburned wildfire area,"Rassbach said."It's im por­tant they understand theincreased hazards created bythe wildfire itself."

Hazard trees or snags tendto pose the most imminentthreat. Dead or dying treesthat remain standing after awildfire are unstable, espe­cially in high winds.

"People are more likely tobe aware of obstacles on theground but don't often lookup to assess danger," Rass­bach said.

LOCAL THE OBSERVER — 7AFRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 2015

What you call environmentalism might be 'nature religion'not organized or God-centric.

Everyone thinks aboutreligion differently. For manyin the U.S., it's all about beliefin God. For scholars, thedefinition of religion is muchbroader.

Mark Shibley, a professor atSouthern Oregon University,writes that any activityis reli­gious"if it facilitates religiousexperience, ritualizes daily life,contains a coherent worldviewregarding the sacred, and pro­vides a basis for community."

Under those terms, he ex­plains, nature religion mightlook like allowingreverencefor the intrinsic value of theearth to shape your behavior:recycling, composting, shop­ping for locally grown food,spending time in nature for

the sake of marveling atitsbeauty or purity.

You can practice naturereligion and still alliate witha traditional religion, scholarssaid. It's a value system thatcan be layered onto otherworld views.

Nature religion isn't a newor limited to the Northwest.

Native Americans consid­ered the earth sacred andadapted their behavior topreserve and respectit longbefore Europeans arrived.Henry David Thoreau andRalph Waldo Emerson reflect­ed themes of nature religionin their 19th century writing.Around the turn of the 20thcentury, Christian groupsstarted taking camping tripsfor religious educational as­

semblies, believing nature wasgood for the soul.

So when did nature religionbecome a thing? Scholarscredit Catherine Albanese asthe first academic to definethe term and use it to describethe concept we're discussingtoday. She's now a professor atthe University of California inSanta Barbara.

Scholars describe naturereligion as the Northwest'sspiritual identity in partbecause it is so pervasive,but also because there isn't adominant traditional religionto claim the crown. That lackof traditional religiosityisembedded in the history of theNorthwest, paving the wayfor the region to develop itsun-churched reputation.

The first white people hereweren't coming to make afamily home, said SusannaMorrill, a religion expertat Lewis & Clark College.They came first for fur, thenfor timber. Most were youngmen — the demographic leastlikely to carry on traditions.Bars and brothels cropped upto cater to those lads.

The region developed areputation for its godless­ness fairly quickly, Morrillsaid, attracting the antennaeof missionaries back east.Catholics, Methodists, Pres­byterians, Congregationalistsand Baptists all swooped in,divvying up the land. No onegroup established a monopoly,allowing a diverse array ofideas to flourish.

People tend to adopt thereligiousness of the regionthey move to, regardless ofwhere they grew up or wherethey go, said Patricia Killen,a religion expert at GonzagaUniversity. In the Northwest,newcomers might let go oftraditional religion becausethey're influenced by anti­institutional attitudes. Theym ight also cut ties becausethey were only half-heartedlyreligious where they camefrom, attending services be­cause it was socially expected.

There's also what Morrillcalls"the Portlandia effect."People who resonate with theNorthwest's reputation movehere to fit in, thus adding tothe number of people who fitthe stereotype.

By Melissa BinderThe Oregonian

Were you composting beforePortland offered a green binfor your scraps? Do you preferlocally-grown produce to foodshipped cross-country? Doesthe view from Lookout Moun­tain give you butterfhes?

You might practice"naturereligion."

In a story last week, TheOregonian introduced you tothe folk religion as a way todescribe the individualistic,environmental spirituality ofthe Pacific Northwest. Manyofyou debated the idea onsocial media.

Oregonworkplace deathsdeclinehINstillscar familiesBy George RedeThe Oregonian

It was still dark andextremely foggy the morn­ing of Jan. 7, 2014, as GaryKline picked up a truckloadoflogs near Grand Ronde andheaded for the Willamina millabout 15 miles away.

Three trucks left ahead ofhim, two more followed.

As the lead driver returnedto the logging site two hourslater, he noticed tire tracksgoing ofI'the road and logsstrewn down the hillside, atrailer about 50 feet ofI'theroad, and Kline's truck lyingon its side 150 yards down thesteep slope.

State investigators conclud­ed Kline lost sight of the roadin the thick fog and plungedinto the ravine. Ejected komthe truck, he died immedi­ately. He was 39.

Kline, who lived in Indepen­dence, was the first workerkilled on the job in Oregon

last year. He wasn't the last.Altogether, 41 men and 5women died kom workplaceaccidents and injuries in 2014,according to a tally by Theoregonian/OregonLive.

The number includes bothOregon and out-of-stateresidents who died within thestate's borders, but excludesat least 28 others who diedon the job kom suicide, heartattack, stroke or other natural

Both nationally and inOregon, the rate of workplacedeaths has declined sharplyover the past 30 years.

In 2013, Oregon recorded afatal occupational injuryrateof 2.9 per 100,000 workers,higher than California (2.4)and Washington (1.7) butlower than the U.S. average of3.3 per 100,000.

Oregon state figures, whichare based on more narrowcriteria than used by Theoregonian/OregonLive, show

years.

deaths have fallen kom about80 ayear in the 1980s to anaverage of 27 in the last five

Fatalities reached a low in2010 after the constructionindustry cratered during therecession, but are inching upas the economyimproves, saidMichael Wood, administratorof the Oregon OccupationalSafety and Health Division.He said some of the overall

drop stems kom a greateremphasis on safety, butitalso reflects broad economicchanges that have shiftedworkers into relatively saferindustries.

Across the United States,construction, manufacturingand agriculture still have themost dangerous jobs, he said,while logging and forestryremain especially perilous inOregon.

YraSc accidents are aleading killer, responsible for20 to 25 percent of workplace

deaths, Wood said. And whilehomicides account for about10 percent of workplace fatali­ties, women are twice as likelyas men to be slain.

The numbers point to agrim reality: Just about everyweek, there is a workplacefatality somewhere in Oregon.

Like Kline's, these deathsare typically sudden andviolent. They seldom make thenews. Yet the emotional tollon surviving family members,6iends and co-workers isdevastating.

As Oregonians mark theend of summer with LaborDay campouts and barbe­cues, the holiday also offersa chance to remember the doz­ens of people who died komworkplace injuries.The Oregonian/OregonLive

presents three vignetles thatillustrate the depth ofloss: un­sung workers and communitystalwarts who were husbands,wives, grandparents, newly­

weds and more.• Don Kendall, a 54-year­

old state highway worker, waskilled when a dump truckbacked over him south ofPendleton. The Legislaturerenamed a highway after thedeeplyrespected man.

Entering the fall, the Elginvolleyball team has a distinctobjective it is shooting for.

"I think the team goal lastyear was to make it to (Class2A Wapiti League DistrictChampionships), and wewere one game shy," headcoach Carmen Pearson said."So this year our team goal isgetting to go to districts."

To do that the Huskies willhave to replace six seniors,including Miah Slater andAria Higgins, from a 2014squad that went 2-12 overalland 2-10 in the Wapiti.

eWe lost pretty much thebulk of our team, so it's apretty young team this year,"Pearson said."But we'repretty solid, overall. If theycan gel together, I think we'llhave a really good team.

MINNEAPOLIS — Trevone Boykinthrew for 246 yards and a touchdownand ran for 92 yards and another scoreto help No. 2 TCU outlast Minnesota23-17 on Thursday night.

Boykin started his Heisman push bycompleting 26 of 42 passes. But he alsothrew an interception and the HornedFrogs had a difFicult time getting theirfrenetic offense rolling against Min­nesota's determined defense. Their 23points were their fewest scored sinceNov. 9, 2013.

The Horned Frogs shared the Big 12title last year, but were left out of thefour-team playofFfield. They've heardnothing but questions about the crush­ing disappointment for the last ninemonths, providing plenty of motivationto erase that memory with a nationalchampionship run this season.

First-year Elgin/Imblercross country head coachChristine Eckstein has herwork cut out for her, but she'sexcited at what she sees forthe future.

"In the first year it's toughto build up a team rightofF the bat. It takes yearssometimes," she said."But ifwe come together as a familythat will translate into suc­cess. I feel like this group hasa great deal of potential infront of them."

Six boys and one girl makeup the Elgin/Imbler rosterthis year. For the boys, sopho­more Micah Flippo placedthe highest on the team atthe Class 2A Special District5 championships last year,taking 29th with a finish of19 minutes, 26.4 seconds.

Jonathan Flippo is thelone senior this fall, and hereturns after placing 31st atdistricts in 2014 with a timeof 19:34.3.

"Jonathan is obviously oneof our more experienced boys,and he's kind of a leader ofthe team," Eckstein said.

For the girls, freshman Le­rae Ruck is the only athleteon the team.

"She's got a lot of roomto grow, and she's alreadymade a lot of improvements,"Eckstein said.

The goal for Elgin/Imblerthis year is to finish out theseason on a high note.

eWe definitely want topeak at districts," Ecksteinsaid."I'd really like to seeas many of our boys (get apersonal record) at districts,and be one of the best teamsthere. They've got to put inthe work now."

Elgin/Imbler starts theseason at the Runner SoulCross Country Fest in Herm­iston Saturday. But as theseason wears on, Ecksteinjust wants the team to enjoythe sport, above all else.

PORTLAND — A lawyer for OracleCorp. implored a federal judge Thurs­day to let the company's copyrightlawsuit against the state of Oregon goforward despite the state's claim that itis immune from being sued.

The caseis part of a complex legalbattle stemmingfirrm the failure of theCover Oregon healthinsurance exchange.

'This is a case where the state of Ore­gon has simply appropriated Orade's codeand said, Sorry, you can't sue us,"'Oradeattorney Karen Johnson-McKewan said..

Oracle, which was the primary tech­nology contractor on the Cover Oregonproject, maintains it was never fullypaid for its work and that the stateillegally used Oracle's code.

to-earth, forthright, honest and trusted indi­viduals born under your sign.

As a result, you will enjoypersonal suc­cess of a kind that is steady and lasting. Yourstar may never burn as brightly as some oth­ers ­- though there will be times when itburns very brightly, indeed! — but it willalmost surely burn much longer, to prove asource of inspiration to those around you.You want nothing more than to be allowed toexplore the world and all it has to offer, whileremaining true to yourself and your ideals.

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, 2015YOUR BIRTHDAY by Stella WilderBorn today, you have been endowed with

remarkable talent, and your whole life islikely to take shape around it. What thismeans is that all of your contentment, suc­cess, failure, joyand frustration will be linkedinexorably to that one special ability that hasbeen a lifelong gift from the stars — andwhich will be the cause of all your highs andlows in life. You may have a sense of destiny,and you're sure to plot a course for yourself inlife that allows you to fulfill that destiny,provided you do not allow yourself to be dis­tracted or derailed along the way. Be warned!Even a seemingly inconsequential decisioncan affect your trajectory forever!

SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 6VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — You have a

great deal in common with someone who hashabitually rubbed you the wrong way. Areyou seeing something of yourself in him orherd

SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 6, 2015YOUR BIRTHDAY by Stella WilderBorn today, you always do things with oth­

ers in mind. While this may mean that youare acting for their benefit, or simply that youwant to assess how they are reacting to your

own behavior, in either case the world around

you will always be a key component ofthe lifeyou build for yourself. You are naturallyphil­anthropic; you do indeed care deeply forothers. Still, you are also driven by a need tosecure for yourselfthe best in life — and whileothers may call this "selfish" at times, the factis that without that drive, you are not likely toaccomplish much at all. The more you try tobalance your personal needs with genuine

care for those around you, the better.

MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 7VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ­- You may

have to defend yourself against a surpriseattack of sorts. Though it sounds impossible,you can do what is required.

most, you enjoy gathering knowledge ofunusual topics. One of the most unusual mayopen its doors to you.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Your abil­ity to hide the truth can sometimes come inhandy, but you must avoid any attempts atdeception and come clean.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)Someone else is trying to do what you aredoing, but he or she seems to have an unusu­al advantage. You can pick up the pace.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ­- Youand a loved one may not be entirely in sync;what you want and what he or she wants arenot exactly compatible.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ­- You've

reached the halfway point of a pet project.Perhaps you should set it aside for a while toassess your current situation.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) ­- Moneymatters cannot be ignored. Do what you canto incorporate all possible plans. Follow inanother's footsteps, perhaps.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) — You may

give someone is likely to come back to youtenfold before you know it. A new phase ofsymbiotic generosity has begun.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ­- You mustbe sure that you are heard, especially whenthe clock is ticking and you have preciouslittle time to get your message across.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)Some of the ideas you're toying with are sim­ply impractical or even impossible. One ortwo can really pay off, however!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Yourefforts aren't likely to come to fruition in themanner you originally planned — but thesurprise may be a good one!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ­- Yourintended audience may not be ready to hear

what you have to say. Start slowly and easily,and avoid saying anything shocking.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) — You canprove that you've been in the right all thistime, and others have been mistaken. Don'tgloat, however!

MIG RANT CRISISMom's motives for marriageare questioned by older man

DEAR LOVES: No, I do not. Bmg a cer­emony such as you have described, tears canbe a healthy display of emotion. However, I dothink your husband's comments are insensi­tive and judgmental, and he's doing the rightthing for everyone by staying away. Feeling ashe does, far awayis where he belongs.

DEARABBY: My wife, whois a Realtor, isupset because a couple of ourbest friends listed their home

DEAR with someone else. My wifeABBY feels they should have had

the decency to at least notifyher that they were going to

give the listing to another Realtor. My wifehad sold them their home a few years ago.Your thoughts, please?

DEAR MIFFED: No law says this couplewas obligated to have your wife representthem. I suspect that they didn't inform yourwife because they wanted to avoid an un­comfortable conversation. If she would liketo know the reason they listed their homewith someone else, she should ask them. It'spossible the other realtor offered servicesbeyond what your wife does.

DEARABBY: My wife and Iarein our 60sand have been married more than 40 years. Ithasn't always been great, but we've made it.

Recently, while going through some oldboxes in the basement, I ran across her diaryand discovered that she had an affair whilewe were engaged. This has left me depressed,hurt and feeling very down. Should I con­front her with my ftndings?

DEAR HURTING: If you feel the need tobring this up after 40 years, then rather thanlet it fester and ruin the next 40, tell yourwife what you have found. However, beforeyou do that, remember diaries are supposedto be private, and you will have to explainwhy you took it upon yourself to read some­thing that was never meant for you to see.

DEAR ABBY: I am a 68-year-oid manliving with a 28-year-old woman. She hasthree children — ages 2, 6 and 7. They livewith usevery other weekend. Ihave falleninlove with them. We are planning on gettingmarried soon, and I want to be sure the kidsare secure when I'm gone.

I have an erectile dysfunction problem.She says she doesn't care about sex, butI'm worried she will stray. Iwas 28 once, and that's all Ithought about. I'm afraid sheis marrying me for her ownbeneftt — the house, SocialSecurity and my business.

I love her and her children dearly. Shesays she loves me, but I'mjust not sure. Canyou help me ftgure out what to do?

DEAR TOO GOOD: If you have anydoubts about marrying this woman, thenyou shouldn't do it. However, if you dodecide to marry her, first discuss this withyour legal adviser and be sure you have anironclad prenuptial agreement.

As to providing for her little ones in theevent of your demise, discuss that with alawyer who specializes in wills and trustsand who can advise you about the best wayto leave money/assets in trust for them afterthey have reached a certain age — so themoney can't be dissipated prematurely.

DEARABBY: Our parents have been deadfor 25 years. Along the way, we have also lostsisters, nieces and cousins. Every year whenwe gather for a family reunion, part ofitisa candle lighting and spoken remembranceof those loved ones we have lost. Some in myfamily get teary-eyed or cry.

My husband refuses to attend my familyreunions because of this. He says my relativeshaveissues and need to see a mental healthprOfesSiona. He makes fun of us and the waywe are together. Do you agree we are "crazy" forthe remembrance and the tears?

People can now travel theFlow Trail in the Mount EmilyRecreation Area more safely andwith greater help from the lawsof physics.

La Grande Boy Scout BeeckThurman has made sure of it.

Thurman has built a 23-footpedestrian foot bridge over thenorth fork of Conley Creek for hisEagle project.

Count Bart Barlow, a memberof the Blue Mountain SingleTrack Trails Club, as amongthose excited about the newbridge, which is part of FlowTrail. Barlow said it boosts safety

and the ease of travel. He saidbefore the bridge was in place,people had to stop when reachingConley Creek and figure out howto cross the creek or get around it.This could be dangerous, espe­cially when the creek water washigh in early spring. It also costtravelers time.

'You lost all of that momen­tum 4uilt up while approachingConley Creek). Now you can rideia bike), jog or walk without stop­ping," said Barlow, who served asThurman's project coach.

He said the quality of the bridgereflects excellent work on the partof Thurman.

standards," Barlow said.Thurman got the idea for the

project on a spring morning morethan a year ago when he lookedat the Conley Creek site.

"It was snowing lightly and thestream was roaring with freezingcold water. The crossing was obvi­ously too dangerous to ford foranyone. The need for a crossingwas blatant," Thurman wrote in apiece about his Eagle project.

He then began to design abridge to "span the current."

Thurman later constructed thebridge primarily with materialsdonated by Union County. Hewas assisted by fellow Boy Scouts,

An endless string which everysummer abruptly ends. But until that ending,what keeps me going through the Augustand September grind, are thoughts ofhome.Thoughts about big towering ponderosapines and golden basalt slopes with clumpsofbunchgrass. Red osier. Quiet float trips. Bigwide open spaces to get lost in. Steelhead.

Rainfall is a funny thing. With all theflooding earlier this summer, all my clientsfrom Texas are finally satiated after years ofdrought. Their tanks and ponds and lakes areback to full. Their bass and cows are happyagain. But there was so much rain it becametoo much and turned into flash floods. Twodifferent clients shared stories about peoplethey knew who were killed, families tornapart or people still missing. Meanwhile,California continues to experience a droughtthe Colorado River is unable to quench. Dryas a bone, dusty as adrywash.

Before I left in late May, I took a shortovernight backpack trip up the WenahaRiver to say goodbye to the two things I lovemost about Wallowa County: solitude andfish. The river was low and the slopes werealready hot with rattlesnakes, but the fishingcouldn't have been better. Big rainbows andbull trout slammed the hopper as it driftedpast or skated in an arc downstream. Andwhile there were other folks backpacking andfishing, what might have been considered abusy weekend, by Colorado standards, waspretty quiet.

SAWTOOTH WILDERNESS SCOTT

WesCom News SerwceBy Mark Morical

STANLEY, Idaho — Sur­rounded by craggy spiresof granite with my feetsubmerged in the glacier­cold water of Sawtooth Lake,I breathed in some of theclearest air in the continen­tal United States.

Such air belongs to theSawtooth Wilderness, ac­cording to the Environmen­tal Protection Agency.

After postponing a much­anticipated trip to the Wal­lowa Mountains of northeastOregon due to smoky condi­tions caused by wildfires, myfriend and I ventured eastinto the heart of the IdahoRockies on a three-nightcamping/hiking/mountainbiking trip last week.

The Sawtooths proved tobe a more-than-worthy back­up plan — and also offeredsome relatively clean air.

About 420 miles ianeight-hour drivel east fromBend, Stanley — popula­tion 63 — is the largestsettlement in the SawtoothNational Recreation Area,which boasts more than700 miles of trails, 40 peaksrising over 10,000 feet and300-plus-high mountainlakes, according to the U.S.Forest Service.If Bend is an escape for

Portlanders, then Stanleyis an escape for Bendites.Stanley has all the naturalamenities of Bend, minus,you know, the 80,000 people.The tiny town is a mountainoutpost that can be enjoyedwithout the annoyance ofCycle Pubs and brewery­hopping tourists.

In fact, 130 miles north­east of Boise, it feels a bitlike the middle of nowhere.

A few miles south ofStanley, we found a campsitenestled against the Salmon

River, with a dramatic viewof the Sawtooths to the west.

Our first day in theSawtooths was dedicated toa 10-mile round-trip hikefrom Iron Creek to Saw­tooth Lake. My map listedthis hike as one of the mostpopular trails in the Saw­tooth National RecreationArea. Indeed, the trailheadparking area was nearly fullon a Sunday morning.

But just a little way intothe hike, solitude abounded.As we started gaining eleva­tion, a long series of jaggedrocky peaks came into viewto the west. The mountainswere unlike any I had everseen, impossible to compareto anything in Oregon.

We crossed a dry, brown

meadow, then began a steepclimb toward Alpine Lake,just northeast of SawtoothLake. Total elevation gainfor the hike was about 1,700feet, and because SawtoothLake sits at 8,435 feet,we could feel the thinnerair take hold as the trailbecame more and moreprecipitous.

Following the switchbacksabove the sparkling bluealpine lake, we rose abovethe tree line and arrived ata babbling brook borderedby yellow wildflowers. Fromthere, it was just a shortclimb to 170-acre SawtoothLake, the largest lake in theSawtooth Wilderness.

In my research of thishike before the trip, I came

And sure enough, with aquick Google search, I readthrough a thread ofbowhunters chatting aboutthe fire that affected theTucannon-Wenaha Wil­derness, and then with amore specific search, thereit was on a map, the actualfire consuming most of theWenaha drainage.

Which brings up a point.Sometimes I see people andwonder if they ever made itout alive. When I was pack­ing out I saw three guys amile from the trailhead withtheir gear laid out. They werewanting to kayak down­stream and end up some­where, but where?

A couple of years ago I mettwo guys asking directions.They had some inflatablekayaks in their packs andwere somewhat doing thesame. I can only estimatethat they had at least aseven- to 10-day trip infront of them and surely thekayak, paddles and clothinghad to take up most of theroom in their packs. Howmuch food could they havehad with them? Well, I'm notsure about them, but I madeit home safe.

The Oregon Department ofFish and Wildlife announcedThursday it is relaxingfishing restrictions on 10northeast Oregon bodies ofwater. The eased restrictionsgo in effect immediately.

ODFW plans to chemi­cally treat lakes and ponds inBaker, Union, Wa llowa andUmatilla counties this fall toremove unwanted fish speciesand improve trout fisheries.

Under the new temporaryregulations, there are nodaily bag or possession limits,no size limits, and anglerscan harvest fish by hand, netor angling.

"By relaxing the rules,we hope to give people theopportunity to harvest thesefish before we remove them,"

Restrictions likedODFW fish biologist KyleBratcher said.

Kinney Lake in WallowaCounty, Peach, Lugar andBoundary ponds in UnionCounty, and Keyhole, GraniteMeadows, Goldfish, Yellow­jacket and Windy Springsponds in Umatilla County arethe water bodies affected bythe temporaryregulations.

The regulations will be inplace until 12:01 a.m. Sept.26, at which time the bodiesof water will be closed due tothe chemical treatment. Theyare scheduled to reopen Jan.1, 2016.

'The three-month closuregives us some flexibility inscheduling the treatments,and provides ample time fordetoxification," ODFW fishbiologist Tim Bailey said.

DUELING DIETS: LOW-CARB OR LOW-FAT?

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 2015 THE OBSERVER a BAKER CITY HERALD — 5C

VISION

mtesCom News ServiceBy Kathleen McLaughlin

Gluten-fiee cookbook au­thor Michelle Lee meets a lotof people who hope the dietwill lead to weight loss.

'The perception is thatwhen you cut out gluten,you cut out carbs, and thenyou lose weight," said Lee,who started following agluten-fiee diet four yearsago because ofher husband'sallergy.

Lee and her husband bothlost weight, but she said thatwas probably the result oflifestyle changes like cookingmore meals from scratch anddining out less. Most weight­loss studies fail to account forsuch incidental effects. That'sone reason there's so muchbuzz around recent researchthat compared reduced-fatand reduced-carbohydratediets — and found that cut­ting fat led to a greater lossin body fat."In contrast to previous

claims about a metabolicadvantage of carbohydraterestriction from enhancingbody fat loss, our data andmodel simulations supportthe opposite conclusion,"National Institutes of Healthresearchers concluded inan article published in thejournal Cell Metabolism."Furthermore, we can defini­tively reject the claim thatcarbohydrate restriction isrequired for body fat loss."

The tightly controlledstudy, which involved 19obese people staying in a

clinic for two weeks at astretch, sheds light on howthe body processes differenttypes of calories. Still, thefindings don't offer muchnew information for peoplelooking to lose weight in thereal world.

Over time, the differencein body-fat loss between thetwo diets would probably besmall, said lead author KevinHall, a metabolism research­er at the National Institute ofDiabetes and Digestive andKidney Diseases. Hall wasn'tavailable for an interviewbutresponded to questions

the conversation turns out.

Ask to speak with a nurseThat's right, many case

managers at insurance com­panies are registered nurses,explains Dreher, and they'reusually more knowledgeableand sometimes even moresympathetic to your cause. Soif you need assistance witha medical question and yourcustomer service rep isn'tbeing helpful, ask politely foran RN.

Follow upIf the insurance company

promises to get back to youby a certain date, put areminder in your calendar tofollow up immediately afteryou hang up, says Savastano.

Always get it in writingIf the insurance com­

pany is making an excep­tion to coverage rules, getthat agreement in writing.Dreher had a client in Illinoiswho needed a complicatedsurgery that no in-network,local provider could per­form. The most experienced

through a National InstitutesofHealth spokesperson.The main driver in body­

fat reduction is calories, Hallsaid in an email."Therefore,it is likely more importantto choose a diet that leads toa reduction in calorie intakethat can be sustained for longperiods of tim e."

The theory behind low­carb diets is that they reduceinsulin production and speedup fat-burning. Research­ers found that fat-burningindeed increased under thereduced-carb diet. Partici­pants lost more weight than

surgeon was out-of-networkin California. The patient'sinsurance company ver­bally agreed to cover theprocedure, but afterwardhe received a bill that didn'tline up with what had beenpromised. Fortunately, hehad documented every detail,and Dreher helped him filean appeal.

Don't pay until thenumbers match

After a medical appoint­ment or procedure, you'llreceive an"explanation ofbenefits" from your insuranceprovider as well as a bill fromyour doctor. Both docu­ments will specify how muchmoney you owe the doctor.In a perfect world, thesetwo numbers should match,says Russell. If they do, paythat amount. If there's a bigdiscrepancy, call the doctor'soffice to make sure it billedthe insurance company cor­rectly.

While insurance compa­nies generally won't budgeon discrepancies like this,hospitals and doctors might,

Continued from Page 6CThen you can ask the

rep, "Could you please pointme to the document you'rereferencing?" says DianneSavastano, founder of Massa­chusetts-based Healthassist,which helps patients navi­gate the insurance system.

Record everythingThe automated voice that

says, "this call may be moni­tored" is good advice for you,too. Note the date and time,the name of whomever youspoke with and any detailsabout what they said, so youhave a documented versionof the conversation just likethe insurance company does.In fact, you can record theconversation as well.

'Very few insurance­related calls are resolved inone phone call," says Russell,so it's likely you'll need toreference this info when youcall back. "If you can say, 'Italked to Jasmine on June 6at 3 o'clock, and she told methis,' you may not have toexplain the whole thing fromscratch."

Another option is corre­sponding via email. You won'thave to take ias many) notesif everything is in writing.Ask the rep if you can followup via email and, ifhe agrees,ask if you can send a notesummarizing your phoneconversation, says Savastano.

they did on the reduced-fatdiet, and they also lost bodyfat, an average 53 grams perday.Yet the reduced-fat diet led

to a significantly greater lossin body fat — an average of89 grams per day.

Hall noted that fat-burningunder the reduced-carb dietplateaued after a few days. Inthe end, he said, the caloriedeficit was greater under areduced-fat diet, and thatwas reflected in lost body fat.

The fact that both dietsincluded a 30-percent caloriereduction hit home with Lee,who followed a low-fat dietfor several years in her teensand 20s.'What you're seeingis basic high school, textbookbiology, calories in versuscalories out."

Bend dietitian RanDeeAnshutz does not emphasizecutting calories with her cli­ents, and that won't changein light of the new research,she said. Anshutz subscribesto the Health at Every Sizemodel, in which she helpsclients change their habitsto improve health measuressuch as blood pressure, cho­lesterol and blood sugar.

The study didn't go intodetail about what type of fatsand carbs were restricted,Anshutz said.'Those areimportant to the healthpicture," she said.

The 19 men and womenchecked into the metabolicward at the NIH ClinicalCenter in Bethesda, Mary­land, for two weeks. They ate

a baseline diet, 2,740 calories,for five days, and then forsix days they were given alower-calorie diet that eitherreduced carbohydrates orreduced fats. The diets wereassigned at random.

After a two-week to four­week"wash-out" period, theparticipants returned to theclinic and followed the sameprocedure under the oppositediet.

As the study's authorsnoted, the reduced-carbohy­drate diet was not what mostpeople would consider"low­carb." That was owed to thedifficulty of further cuttingcarbs without making up thedifference in calories throughfats, the authors said.

The 140 grams of carbs inthe study's reduced-carb dietis about what most peopleshould consume, AnshutzSRld.

During their stays, thestudy participants exercisedon a treadmill at a set paceand incline for an hour a day.Anshutz said she would liketo know more about theirusual exercise habits.

If anything, the studyreinforced the importanceof physical activity, Anshutzsaid. While she appreciatedthe quality of the research,Anshutz noticed that it didn'tinclude a control group, andthe prediction about long­term effects was based onmathematical models.

She added,i Our body ismore complex than that."

says Dreher. Ask to speakwith a medical adviser at thehospital or doctor's office andexplain any financial stressyou're under. But instead ofasking for the entire bill to bewaived, offer to pay a sizeableportion isay 50 to 60 percent).At the very least, you couldget a more reasonable pay­ment plan, says Savastano.

Set up a conference call

There are strict rulesprotecting your privacy whenit comes to health care andhealth insurance — andrightfully so. But things canget frustrating when you'retrying to help, say, an agingparent. Savastano suggests aconference call between you,your parent and the insur­ance company so the rep canvalidate your parent's infor­mation and get her approvalto speak with you.

Stop using out-of­network providers

Obviously, in an emergencyyou go where you must. Butwhen it's not, using an out-of­network health care pro­

vider is a sacrifice, Josephssays."For out-of-networkproviders,your deductiblesand coinsurance are oftenhigher, and they haven'tgone through the rigorousquality criteria that we havefor in-network providers," heexplains. All of which mayadd up to more expense andheadaches for you.

Know what you're buyingHalf of those surveyed by

Cigna in a recent poll admit­ted to spending less than onehour deciding on their healthinsurance coverage. Youwouldn't buy a car or evenplan a vacation with thatlittle sweat. If you get yourinsurance through an em­ployer, you're probably guiltyof this, says Savastano.

"Spend the time to makethe choices that are right foryou," says Josephs. Be awarethat choosing the employer­offered plan with the lowestpremium might not save youmoney. It depends on whatkind ofcare you need,suchas behavioral health servicesor prescription meds.

ForWesCom News ServiceBy Ttish Yerges

At one time age-related cataracts left seniorsbilaterally blind.

But no more.Today, cataract surgeries are common and

fast, and they often restore the patient's visionto 20/20.

This year an estimated 3.6 million cataractprocedures will be performed in the U.Su andmore than 20 million will be performed world­wide, according to a March report from Reviewof Ophthalmology.

This figure is going to steadilyincrease as thepopulation grows and people live longer. Cata­racts become increasingly more common withage. Up to half of 75-year-olds have visuallysignificant cataracts, while less than 3 percentof 45- to 55-year-olds have them. Cataractsare more common among women and those ofCaucasian ethnicity."A cataractis a painless, progressive cloud­

ing of the lens located inside of the eye," saidDr. David Glabe, an optometrist at La GrandeFamily Eye Care.'This douding can occur nor­mally with age, or may be the result of trauma,diseases such as diabetes, or inherited eye disor­ders. Early cataracts cause glare and diKcultyseeingin low-light situations. As they progress,cataracts mayresultin vision loss from blockingor distorling light that enters the eye. These vi­sual distortions cannot be corrected by standardglasses or contact lenses, making eye surgerynecessary to restore good vision."

Peggy Hayes of Elgin describes how shestarted developing cataract symptoms.

'You don'trealize you have fuzzy visionbecause it comes on so gradually," Hayes said.'You know it's harder to see, but you can still goahead and read, play puzzles and do all thesethings. At night, though, the light hurt my eyes,so I quit going out."

"I didn't know quite what to expect," she said."After all, it's my eyes, and they are so valuableto me. But I agreed to the surgery and wasreferred to Pacific Cataract and Laser Institutein Kennewick. I had to have both eyes done, aweek and a half apart. When I wentin, theydilated both of my eyes again, even though mypersonal doctor did it, they did it again. Theywere very attentive to me."Glabe said cataract surgeryrepresents one of

the great advances in modern surgery.

"Oh, my goodness! I couldn't believehotv clear everything tvas."— Peggy Hayes, describing her reactionafter having cataract surgery

"Although variations on surgical techniqueexist," he said,"this delicate procedure is typi­cally performed by making small incisionson the eye surface which allow instrumentsto enter the eye and break apart the cloudynatural lens inside. A new lens implantis theninserted into the eye, allowing for improvedlight transmission. Implanted lenses are calcu­lated to provide enough power for the eye thatthe need for glasses may be reduced or, in somecases, entirely eliminated."

Cataract surgery is generally an outpatientprocedure, and skilled surgeons can completethe actual surgery in less than 10 minutesper eye. Patients are normally awake duringthe procedure, though the eye is dilated andanesthetized. Recovery time is minimal andtypically painless, with most patients enjoyingimproved vision the same day. Eyedrops areused for three to four weeks following the sur­gery to assist in healing, and regular follow-upvisits are critical to monitor for any complica­tions.

After Hayes' surgery, she had a patch overher eye and was instructed to remove it oncethe anesthesia wore ofK After that point, shehad to put two eye drops in her eye every fourhours.

'The next day I saw my regular doctor, andthen again a week later," she said."By the timeyou have your second follow-up exam a weeklater, you're typically done with the drops. Thefirst day, light bothered my eye, but the nextday everything was so crystal clear. Oh, mygoodness! I couldn't believe how clear every­thing was."

Calling your health insurance provid­er is right up on the Most Dreaded Listwith getting a colonoscopy. But therewill come a day when you can't avoidcalling that toll-free number, pushing 2for English, 4 for Claims, keying in your47-digit Group ID number, having your47-digit Group ID number electronicallyread back to you and then (finally! l be­ing told your wait time is 50 minutes.

But there is a better way.We actually got through to these in­

surance people (and other experts) andasked how to make this whole processmore efficient. Here's what they told us:

Don't call on Monday

This is like trying to get throughto the Heavenly Ham store the weekbefore Easter. You'll be on hold for­ever, along with everyone else who hadquestions arise over the weekend, saysElisabeth Schuler Russell, founder andpresident of Patient Navigator LLC. TryWednesdays, Thursdays or early Fridaybefore people start wrapping up for theweekend, she says.

Be prepared before you callHave your insurance card and the

document in question (medical bill orinsurance company statement) handy.If you're calling to see if an upcomingtreatment will be covered, have thediagnostic and procedural codes fromyour doctor. Being prepared also meanshaving something to do while on hold.Multi-tasking will ease your stress.

Sweet-talk 'emEven though your inclination may

be to curse and scream when someonefinally picks up the phone, rememberthat's a human being and this isn't herfault."Be collaborative and never throwgasoline on a fire," says registered nurseand patient advocate Teri Dreher, CEOof North Shore Patient Advocates inChicago."Be exceedingly polite; say'thank you.' Use their name, and showthe impact their assistance had, if youcan." Being nice makes it more likelytheQ go the extra yard for you.

Understand your planM ost people read the "101" version

of their benefits, typically a pamphletor PDF summarizing coverage. But ifyou're contesting something, you'll wantto have the "201" version, says Russell.This is called the "evidence of cover­

age" or"certificate of insurance," and it'stypically much hefber — sometimes upto 200 pages. It may be mailed to yourhome or posted online, but sometimesyou have to request it.

His head-spinning journey is chronicledin the documentary "I errell Takes theField," airing Saturday, Sept. 12, onHBO. Produced by a partnership betweenMajor League Baseball and the humorwebsite Funny or Die, the presentation isdedicated to helping Cancer for College,which provides scholarships for youngpeople who have had the disease.

In each of the five games, the then-47­year-old former "Saturday Night Live" starsuited up with men halfhis age, played forhalf an inning, then went across the fieldto the other clubhouse, changed uniformsand played another half-inning. Whendone, he hopped into a waiting helicopterthat took him to the next ballpark, wherehe repeated the routine.

Along the way, he changed inbathrooms, ate lunch in a trainer's roomand did everything on the fly. On thefield, he was vintage I errell — irreverent,goofy and clueless.

But when he showed up in first thingin the morning in the A's clubhouse, noteveryone knew what to think.

"Some of tthe players) found out thatmorning," explains Joe Farrell, an executiveproducer of the film. "I think some players

were thrilled. Some players had costumes dressedas Will in his movies and some dressed up as BurtReynolds from his 'SNL' 'Jeopardy!' days to sortof be with Will . So some players were really intoit, and we were super respectful because otherplayers, they're trying to make a team. You know,we made some jokes about how two weeks fromnow, a lot of you guys might not be on the team.But that was true, and so we were super respectfulto guys taking at-bats."
