Grandma walking for o<strong>the</strong>rs<br />
By GERALD GREEN<br />
Three years ago <strong>the</strong><br />
family of little Jada Bascom<br />
searched <strong>the</strong> world<br />
over before finding a<br />
single donor in Germany<br />
for bone marrow that<br />
matched hers.<br />
On Nov. 28, 2007, when<br />
she was seven months old,<br />
Jada underwent a transplant<br />
using bone marrow<br />
from that donor – a 30year-old<br />
man – in hopes<br />
it would cure <strong>the</strong> leukemia<br />
with which she was born.<br />
It worked.<br />
“Today she’s 3, in remission,<br />
off medications<br />
and doing wonderful,”<br />
her grandmo<strong>the</strong>r, Jeana<br />
Moore of Spokane, Wash.,<br />
said Monday.<br />
It’s hard to tell whose<br />
story is more amazing,<br />
Jada’s or her 57-yearold<br />
grandmo<strong>the</strong>r’s. Not<br />
that <strong>the</strong>y’re similar, just<br />
equally inspiring.<br />
So thankful is <strong>the</strong><br />
grandmo<strong>the</strong>r that a lifesaving<br />
donor was found<br />
for her only grandchild,<br />
she’s making a solitary<br />
cross-country walk to call<br />
attention to <strong>the</strong> need for<br />
people willing to donate<br />
bone marrow and/or blood<br />
cells that will produce<br />
marrow.<br />
“Out of gratitude for<br />
our blessings, we wanted<br />
to help o<strong>the</strong>rs,” Ms. Moore<br />
said during a stop at <strong>the</strong><br />
<strong>Clinton</strong> fire station. “Today<br />
two out of ten (leukemia<br />
victims) will find a<br />
donor. Eight will die.”<br />
Ms. Moore is trying<br />
very hard to change those<br />
odds.<br />
“It took two months<br />
to find Jada’s match,”<br />
she said. “We were really<br />
lucky. O<strong>the</strong>r families<br />
have waited a year. O<strong>the</strong>rs<br />
have waited until <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
loved one was too weak<br />
to receive <strong>the</strong> donation.<br />
O<strong>the</strong>rs have waited until<br />
<strong>the</strong>ir loved<br />
one died.<br />
“If we can<br />
increase <strong>the</strong><br />
pool of eligible<br />
donors,<br />
we can help<br />
people find<br />
a match for<br />
<strong>the</strong>ir loved<br />
ones. So I<br />
decided to do<br />
<strong>the</strong> walk.”<br />
Ms. Moore<br />
started Oct.<br />
19, 2009, in<br />
Seattle.<br />
“I walked<br />
to Los Angeles,<br />
turned<br />
east and now<br />
I’m in <strong>Clinton</strong>,”<br />
she said.<br />
“I’m on my<br />
way to New York City.”<br />
So far she’s walked over<br />
2,600 miles.<br />
“We’ve recruited over<br />
2,000 donors, and we’re<br />
working on more than<br />
100 bone marrow donor<br />
drives,” she said. “We<br />
work in conjunction with<br />
<strong>the</strong> recruiter for <strong>the</strong> National<br />
Marrow Donor<br />
program in each region I<br />
walk through.”<br />
The recruitment effort<br />
is a family affair, but it’s<br />
<strong>the</strong> gray-haired grandmo<strong>the</strong>r<br />
who’s doing <strong>the</strong><br />
hard work.<br />
“I walk alone,” she said.<br />
“No car follows me. I rely<br />
on people’s generosity for<br />
my food and my housing,<br />
and <strong>the</strong> American people<br />
have been wonderful. I<br />
haven’t gotten hungry,<br />
and I usually find places<br />
to sleep.”<br />
When it’s too far between<br />
towns to find a motel,<br />
she sleeps along <strong>the</strong><br />
way in a tent and sleeping<br />
bag that she carries in a<br />
backpack as she walks.<br />
The backpack weighs 35<br />
pounds.<br />
But she’d ra<strong>the</strong>r talk<br />
about <strong>the</strong><br />
need for donors<br />
– and<br />
how easy<br />
<strong>the</strong> process<br />
really is<br />
– than herself.<br />
“It’s so<br />
s i m p l e , ”<br />
she said. “It<br />
just takes a<br />
cheek swab<br />
to become a<br />
donor.”<br />
Prospective<br />
donors<br />
can even do<br />
<strong>the</strong> swab<br />
<strong>the</strong>mselves<br />
in <strong>the</strong> privacy<br />
of <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
homes, using<br />
a kit<br />
<strong>the</strong> national Be-<strong>the</strong>-Match<br />
Registry will send <strong>the</strong>m.<br />
The easiest way to contact<br />
<strong>the</strong> registry is through<br />
<strong>the</strong> Bascom-Moore family<br />
Web site.<br />
It’s www.stepstomarrow.com.<br />
When people<br />
enter that on <strong>the</strong>ir computer,<br />
<strong>the</strong>y need to click<br />
on “Make a Difference.”<br />
That should take <strong>the</strong>m<br />
to a form which will take<br />
about 10 minutes to complete.<br />
Once that’s done, <strong>the</strong><br />
registry will send <strong>the</strong>m a<br />
swab kit.<br />
Ms. Moore said <strong>the</strong>re<br />
are o<strong>the</strong>r ways to contact<br />
<strong>the</strong> registry but this is <strong>the</strong><br />
easiest because <strong>the</strong> kit is<br />
free, thanks to donations<br />
her family has been able<br />
to obtain through its Jada<br />
Bascom Foundation, a<br />
501(c3) tax-exempt organization.<br />

people not to wait,” she<br />

Donations of marrow<br />
and/or cells normally<br />
can be made at a<br />

ful grandmo<strong>the</strong>r. “She<br />
detected little red dots<br />
on her skin, which was<br />
an indicator that her<br />
blood was not clotting.<br />
They did tests and determined<br />
her platelets<br />
were low; that was <strong>the</strong><br />
beginning of her battle<br />
with leukemia.<br />
“By <strong>the</strong> time she was<br />
five months old, she<br />
already had had four<br />
chemo treatments. The<br />
doctors told my daughter<br />
and son-in-law she<br />
needed a bone marrow<br />
transplant to survive.<br />
Everybody in <strong>the</strong> family<br />
got tests – aunts, uncles,<br />
nieces, cousins – but no<br />
one matched.”<br />
Next, Jada’s name<br />
was entered on <strong>the</strong><br />
national Be-<strong>the</strong>-Match<br />
Registry.<br />
“No one in <strong>the</strong> U.S.<br />
matched, so <strong>the</strong>y put her<br />
on <strong>the</strong> international registry,”<br />
said Ms. Moore.<br />
“We found her match<br />
– one person in <strong>the</strong><br />
world, <strong>the</strong> 30-year-old<br />
man from Germany.”<br />
Once a match is found<br />
for a person’s marrow or<br />
blood cells, Ms. Moore<br />
said <strong>the</strong> donor is given<br />
five shots of a drug<br />
which helps produce<br />
more of <strong>the</strong> marrowproducing<br />
blood cells.<br />
For 75 percent of <strong>the</strong><br />
donors, <strong>the</strong> actual donation<br />
process is much<br />
like donating plasma at<br />
a regular blood drive,<br />

“Blood is rich in<br />
blood-plasma cells,” she<br />
said. “To harvest <strong>the</strong>m,<br />
it’s like giving plasma.<br />
They put a needle in<br />
ei<strong>the</strong>r arm and filter<br />
out <strong>the</strong> blood-producing<br />
cells.<br />
“It doesn’t make you<br />
weak. They put everything<br />
else back, and in<br />
four to six weeks <strong>the</strong><br />
body rebuilds <strong>the</strong> cells<br />
that were taken.”<br />
The o<strong>the</strong>r 25 percent<br />
of donors have actual<br />
marrow withdrawn, and<br />
that’s a slightly more<br />
rigorous regimen.<br />
“You’re asleep,” explained<br />
Ms. Moore.<br />
“They put a hollow needle<br />
in <strong>the</strong> top of your hip<br />
and withdraw <strong>the</strong> marrow.<br />
You’re sore for three<br />
or four days, but I think<br />
it’s worth saving a life.”<br />
As with <strong>the</strong> blood<br />
cells, <strong>the</strong> body rebuilds<br />
<strong>the</strong> marrow in four to<br />
six weeks, “and you can<br />
be a donor again,” she<br />
said.<br />
Ms. Moore said <strong>the</strong><br />
idea for her cross-country<br />
walk came to her as<br />
she was taking a more<br />
leisurely stroll one day.<br />
“ W hen Jada came<br />
home in March of 2008,<br />
I was out for a walk,” she<br />
said. “I decided I wanted<br />
to give back by helping<br />
o<strong>the</strong>rs find <strong>the</strong>ir match.<br />
I wanted to see people<br />
face-to-face and encourage<br />

As anyone who’s visited<br />
<strong>the</strong> Pacific Northwest<br />
knows, it rains a lot up<br />
that way.<br />
“I wore my raingear<br />
for three months straight<br />
when I started,” said<br />
Moore. “I hit Oklahoma<br />
just in time for your heat<br />
wave. The humidity has<br />
been dropping <strong>the</strong> last<br />
couple of days, which is<br />
a blessing.”<br />
As for her family’s<br />
thoughts, she said, “Initially,<br />
<strong>the</strong>y were pretty<br />
concerned, and I can<br />
understand that. But I<br />
had <strong>the</strong> feeling I would<br />
be cared for along <strong>the</strong><br />
way, and I have been.<br />
Now my family trusts<br />
<strong>the</strong> process more, but<br />
<strong>the</strong>y still worry about<br />
me. I call <strong>the</strong>m every<br />
day. If I’m going to be<br />
out of cell phone range,<br />
I let <strong>the</strong>m know.”<br />
Ms. Moore’s mo<strong>the</strong>r is<br />
still living, and she has<br />
her own thoughts.<br />
“My momma says I<br />
have walked far enough,<br />
I can come home,” she<br />
said.<br />
Actually, Moore is not<br />
walking <strong>the</strong> exact route<br />
she’s taking, but she is<br />
walking its equivalent<br />
in miles. For example,<br />
she spent Monday night<br />
at <strong>the</strong> Hampton Inn in<br />

Blood in urine not always bad sign<br />
Few health symptoms<br />
are as unsettling as blood<br />
in <strong>the</strong> urine.<br />
Should a person freak<br />
out? Not necessarily. The<br />
technical term for <strong>the</strong><br />
condition is “hematuria,”<br />
and experts at <strong>the</strong> University<br />
of Wisconsin School<br />
of Medicine and Public<br />
Health say it’s likely <strong>the</strong><br />
result of one of several<br />
health conditions, only<br />
one of <strong>the</strong>m serious.<br />
“The first thing I’d say<br />
to a patient is, ‘Don’t panic,’”<br />
said Dr. Jeremy Smith,<br />
an internist and assistant<br />
professor of medicine at<br />
UW. “The majority of <strong>the</strong><br />

time, blood in <strong>the</strong> urine is<br />
not dangerous.”<br />
It could, however, be an<br />
indication of several annoying<br />
health conditions,<br />
including a urinary tract<br />
infection, a kidney stone,<br />
an enlarged prostate<br />
gland or some kind of minor<br />
injury to <strong>the</strong> bladder<br />
or kidney — maybe even<br />
caused by something as<br />
innocuous as vigorous<br />
exercise.<br />
A handful of simple<br />
tests can usually shed<br />
light on <strong>the</strong> situation.<br />

said Dr. Tracy Downs, a<br />
bladder-cancer surgeon<br />
with <strong>the</strong> UW Carbone<br />
Comprehensive Cancer<br />
Center and an associate<br />
professor of urology at<br />
UW.<br />
The process can involve<br />
simple urinalysis, a CT<br />
scan, or a cystoscopy, a<br />
procedure in which physicians<br />
insert a small camera<br />
into <strong>the</strong> bladder.<br />
If <strong>the</strong> hematuria is<br />
caused by an infection<br />
— this is more commonly<br />
found in women than in<br />
men — antibiotics can<br />
usually resolve it.<br />
In a handful of cases,<br />
<strong>the</strong> cystoscopy may reveal<br />
<strong>the</strong> one medically<br />
concerning condition for<br />
which hematuria is also a<br />
symptom: bladder cancer.<br />
Only about 10 percent<br />
of hematuria cases are<br />
linked to cancer, and it’s<br />
more common in patients<br />
over age 50.<br />
“Blood in <strong>the</strong> urine can<br />
definitely be a red flag for<br />
cancer,” said Downs. “For<br />
some patients it’s one flag,<br />
while for o<strong>the</strong>rs it’s one of<br />
two or three flags.”<br />

Unfortunately, <strong>the</strong> recurrence<br />

as 20 to 50 percent, what<br />
Downs calls “<strong>the</strong> dandelion<br />
effect.”<br />
In <strong>the</strong> small number of<br />

must surgically remove<br />

it with an internal<br />

CANCER (June 21-July<br />
22) — This is one of those<br />

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct.<br />
23) — You shouldn’t permit<br />
yourself to be intimidated<br />
by <strong>the</strong> results of o<strong>the</strong>rs,<br />
because <strong>the</strong>y look at your<br />
work, and are equally<br />
daunted. You each have<br />
talents, so develop your<br />
own game plan.<br />
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-<br />
Nov. 22) — Conditions<br />

yourself will awaken your<br />

20) — Benefits you weren’t<br />

Afghan conflict not winnable war?<br />
By BYRON YORK<br />
Gen. David Petraeus<br />
sailed through Senate<br />
confirmation so quickly<br />
in late June few people<br />
noticed what he had to<br />
say about his new job as<br />
commander of U.S. forces<br />
in Afghanistan.<br />
Petraeus told <strong>the</strong> Senate<br />
Armed Services Committee<br />
American forces<br />
face many more battles<br />
against a determined and<br />
resilient Taliban. “My<br />
sense is that <strong>the</strong> tough<br />
fighting will continue,”<br />
Petraeus said. “Indeed, it<br />
may get more intense in<br />
<strong>the</strong> next few months.”<br />
But Petraeus said that<br />
as <strong>the</strong> fighting increases<br />
— and American casualties<br />
rise — <strong>the</strong> public<br />
should remember that<br />
“progress is possible” in<br />
Afghanistan. Petraeus<br />
knows that’s true, he explained,<br />
because he has<br />
seen it.<br />
“For example, nearly 7<br />
million Afghan children<br />
are now in school as opposed<br />
to less than 1 million<br />
a decade ago under<br />
Taliban control,” Petraeus<br />
said. “Immunization rates<br />
for children have gone up<br />
substantially and are now<br />
in <strong>the</strong> 70 to 90 percent<br />
range nationwide. Cell<br />
phones are ubiquitous in<br />
a country that had virtually<br />
none during <strong>the</strong> Taliban<br />
days.”<br />
It was an extraordinary<br />
moment. Americans overwhelmingly<br />
supported <strong>the</strong><br />
invasion of Afghanistan<br />
after <strong>the</strong> Sept. 11 terrorist<br />
attacks.<br />
In eight and a half<br />
years of war <strong>the</strong>re, 1,190<br />
American service members<br />
have died. And after<br />
all that sacrifice, <strong>the</strong> top<br />
American commander is<br />
measuring <strong>the</strong> war’s progress<br />
by school attendance,<br />
child immunization and<br />
cell-phone use.<br />
That sort of nation<br />
building, especially in<br />
a place as primitive as<br />
Afghanistan, has never<br />
been popular with American<br />
voters.<br />
It’s especially unpopular<br />
when combined with<br />
highly restrictive rules of<br />
engagement that have tied<br />
<strong>the</strong> hands of <strong>the</strong> nearly<br />
100,000 U.S. troops in<br />
Afghanistan, exposing<br />
<strong>the</strong>m to danger from an<br />
enemy <strong>the</strong>y’re not allowed<br />
to strike.<br />
Petraeus has promised<br />
to review those rules in<br />
light of evidence <strong>the</strong>y have<br />
caused needless American<br />
deaths.<br />
The latest example<br />
came in <strong>the</strong> Rolling Stone<br />
article that led to <strong>the</strong> firing<br />
of Petraeus’ predecessor,<br />
Gen. Stanley McChrys-<br />

tal. The article told how<br />
U.S. commanders wanted<br />
to destroy an abandoned<br />
house used by <strong>the</strong> Taliban<br />
to launch attacks, but were<br />
denied permission. Then, a<br />
23-year-old Army corporal<br />
was killed <strong>the</strong>re.<br />
“Does that make any<br />
sense?” a fellow soldier<br />
asked. “You sit and ask<br />
yourself: What are we doing<br />
here?”<br />
In ano<strong>the</strong>r scene detailed<br />
by author Michael<br />
Hastings, a soldier confronted<br />
McChrystal about<br />
<strong>the</strong> rules. “We aren’t putting<br />
fear into <strong>the</strong> Taliban,”<br />
he told <strong>the</strong> general.<br />
“Winning hearts<br />
and minds in (counterinsurgency<br />
operations)<br />
is a coldblooded thing,”<br />
McChrystal responded.<br />
“The Russians killed 1<br />
million Afghans, and that<br />
didn’t work.”<br />
“I’m not saying go out<br />
and kill everybody, sir,”<br />
<strong>the</strong> soldier responded. “You<br />
say we’ve stopped <strong>the</strong> momentum<br />
of <strong>the</strong> insurgency.<br />
I don’t believe that’s true<br />
in this area. The more<br />
we pull back, <strong>the</strong> more<br />

we restrain ourselves, <strong>the</strong><br />
stronger it’s getting.”<br />
Put aside <strong>the</strong> fact that<br />
American leaders in Afghanistan<br />
are unironically<br />
using <strong>the</strong> phrase “hearts<br />
and minds” — <strong>the</strong> very<br />
words used to describe<br />
<strong>the</strong> folly of U.S. policy in<br />
<strong>the</strong> Vietnam era.<br />
Does <strong>the</strong> American<br />
public want to continue<br />
a war in which Americans<br />
die because <strong>the</strong>y’re<br />
not allowed to fight back<br />
when attacked, all for<br />
<strong>the</strong> purpose of increasing<br />
school attendance, child<br />
immunization and cellphone<br />
use?<br />
President Obama’s<br />
deadline to begin withdrawing<br />
U.S. troops in<br />
July 2011 was a topic of<br />
much discussion at <strong>the</strong><br />
Petraeus hearing. There’s<br />
disagreement in <strong>the</strong> Senate<br />
over <strong>the</strong> timeline, but<br />
<strong>the</strong> public’s opinion is<br />
clear.<br />
A recent Gallup survey<br />
found 58 percent of<br />
those questioned support<br />
Obama’s timetable, versus<br />
38 percent who oppose.<br />

7 percent say <strong>the</strong>y’re<br />
against <strong>the</strong> timetable because<br />
withdrawal starts<br />
too late. Add <strong>the</strong>m to <strong>the</strong><br />
58 percent who support<br />
withdrawal as scheduled,<br />
and you have 65 percent<br />
of Americans who want<br />
a withdrawal that begins<br />
no later than July of next<br />

Given <strong>the</strong> dreary assessments<br />
we’ve heard<br />
from Petraeus and<br />
McChrystal, it’s unlikely<br />
any great victories in<br />
Afghanistan will change<br />
those opinions.<br />
This is not a blame-<br />
Obama issue. The first<br />
seven years of <strong>the</strong> war<br />
were not his doing. But<br />
<strong>the</strong> decision to leave or<br />
stay in Afghanistan is his<br />
to make.<br />
Near <strong>the</strong> end of <strong>the</strong><br />
Rolling Stone article, one<br />
of McChrystal’s top aides,<br />
Maj. Gen. Bill Mayville,<br />
gave a bleak forecast of<br />
<strong>the</strong> war’s end.<br />
“It’s not going to look<br />
like a win, smell like a win<br />
or taste like a win,” Mayville<br />
said. “This is going to<br />
end in an argument.”<br />

Pre-teens<br />
need shots<br />
The Oklahoma State<br />
Department of Health<br />
(OSDH) said one measure<br />
parents can take to protect<br />
<strong>the</strong>ir children for years to<br />
come is to make sure <strong>the</strong>y<br />
are vaccinated against<br />
life-threatening diseases<br />
such as meningitis, tetanus,<br />
diph<strong>the</strong>ria, whooping<br />
cough and cervical cancer.<br />
The Centers for Disease<br />
Control and Prevention,<br />
Indian Health Service,<br />
and American Academy of<br />
Pediatrics, along with <strong>the</strong><br />
OSDH recommend preteens<br />
and teens get several<br />
vaccines at <strong>the</strong>ir 11- or 12year-old<br />
check-up.<br />
If <strong>the</strong>y miss <strong>the</strong>se vaccines<br />
at 11 to 12 years of<br />
age, <strong>the</strong>y should receive<br />
<strong>the</strong>m at <strong>the</strong>ir next visit.<br />
The preteen vaccines are:<br />
• MCV4, which protects<br />
against meningitis<br />
and its complications.<br />
• Tdap, which is a<br />
booster against tetanus,<br />
diph<strong>the</strong>ria, and pertussis<br />
or “whooping cough.”<br />
• HPV vaccine,<br />
which protects against <strong>the</strong><br />
types of human papillomavirus<br />
that most commonly<br />
cause cervical cancer and<br />
genital warts.<br />
“Many parents do not<br />
realize that immunity<br />
from some childhood vaccines,<br />
such as those for<br />
tetanus and whooping<br />
cough, declines over time,<br />
so adolescents and teens<br />
need a booster to provide<br />
continued protection,” said<br />
Dr. Lynn Mitchell, chief<br />
medical officer and deputy<br />
commissioner for Prevention<br />
and Preparedness<br />
Services at <strong>the</strong> OSDH.<br />
Research shows preteens<br />
generally visit <strong>the</strong><br />
doctor only when <strong>the</strong>y are<br />
sick. However, depending<br />
on <strong>the</strong>ir health and medical<br />
history, some preteens<br />
may require additional<br />
vaccines.<br />
“The preteen check-up<br />
is a great time to talk with<br />
your child’s healthcare<br />
provider about your child’s<br />
development, nutrition,<br />
safety and vaccination status.<br />
It is also an important<br />
time to make sure children<br />
are caught up on childhood<br />
immunizations such as<br />
chickenpox, hepatitis B,<br />
and measles-mumps-rubella<br />
(MMR),” said OSDH<br />
Chief of Immunizations<br />
Don Blose.<br />
Some facts about <strong>the</strong><br />
preventable diseases of<br />
pertussis, meningitis and<br />
HPV/cervical cancer include<br />
<strong>the</strong> following:<br />
• Pertussis, or<br />
whooping cough, is one of<br />
<strong>the</strong> most common respiratory<br />
diseases in American<br />
teens. It causes a<br />
prolonged cough that can<br />
last weeks or months and<br />
can result in pneumonia<br />
or hospitalization.<br />

Tips listed to give money gift in unique way<br />
By SARA NOEL<br />
Money can be a great gift: The giver knows <strong>the</strong> recipient<br />
will use it. But giving <strong>the</strong> gift can be done more<br />
thoughtfully and creatively than simply sticking it in a<br />
card or stuffing it in a plain envelope. Jazz it up by wrapping<br />
it in a more personalized and fun way.<br />
Here are a few fun ideas.<br />
Inside a Book or Calendar: Slip money into various<br />
pages of a book. Use paper clips so it doesn’t fall<br />
out. Or tape money inside of a magazine or onto each<br />
month of a calendar.<br />
In a Box or Tube: Use a cereal box, candy box (M&M<br />
Minis tubes are great for holding quarters), juice box, deck<br />
of cards, etc., as a fun way to wrap a monetary gift.<br />
Place a box inside a box inside a box to disguise it,<br />
or add shredded paper to a shoebox, roll dollar bills<br />
and tie <strong>the</strong>m, and put <strong>the</strong>m in <strong>the</strong> box, hidden in <strong>the</strong><br />
shredded paper.<br />
One reader, Paula from Kentucky, shares: “A couple<br />
of years ago, I got $100 in fives, pulled all <strong>the</strong> tissues out<br />
of a small, cubed tissue box, taped <strong>the</strong> fives end to end,<br />
rolled <strong>the</strong>m up, stuffed <strong>the</strong>m in <strong>the</strong> tissue box and taped a<br />
tissue to <strong>the</strong> end of <strong>the</strong> money roll. I made sure <strong>the</strong> tissue<br />
hung out slightly from <strong>the</strong> box. I found one of those plain<br />
white labels and wrote: ‘It SNOT your regular tissue.’<br />
Imagine my son’s confusion when he opened his beautifully<br />
wrapped gift and found a box of tissues! I said,<br />
‘I’m sure you could just cry, go ahead and grab a tissue.’<br />
Now, imagine his surprise when he grabs <strong>the</strong> tissue and<br />
out comes money! Last year, I bought a 100 count box<br />
of security envelopes, put a $100 bill in one, <strong>the</strong>n put it<br />
back into <strong>the</strong> box with <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r envelopes.”<br />
Wrapped in Clothing: Tuck money into items such<br />
as gloves, socks, a hat, shoes or slippers.<br />

4-, 6- or 12-Pack Beverages: Tape money onto<br />

from plain sight, but can be seen when lifted from<br />
<strong>the</strong> packaging.<br />
Empty bottles such as Starbucks frappuccino bottles<br />
and <strong>the</strong>ir cardboard carriers can be decorated and filled<br />
with candies and small gifts, including money.

DOT issues sign warning<br />
In recent years, political candidates have been<br />
cooperative with obeying state law by not placing<br />
campaign signs on public rights of way.<br />
With this year’s large primaries, <strong>the</strong> Oklahoma<br />
Department of Transportation has issued a reminder<br />
to candidates to continue complying with <strong>the</strong> state<br />
law by not posting signs illegally.<br />
State statute prohibits <strong>the</strong>se signs on highway<br />
rights of way or on overpasses.<br />
Posting signs next to traffic may be tempting, but<br />
<strong>the</strong> volunteers who place <strong>the</strong>m — and those who clean<br />
<strong>the</strong>m up — could be put in harm’s way, according to<br />
ODOT.<br />
Signs in rights of way also can be distracting to<br />
drivers. Transportation officials said by educating<br />
volunteers, candidates can promote safety.<br />

Large Lot, Great Investment or<br />
Rental Property..............$18,000<br />
By Tony Ashcraft<br />
It was time for <strong>the</strong> football dance following our<br />
sophomore year, and what a time it was.<br />
I rode to <strong>the</strong> dance with Mike Martin and his<br />
date, Laura Winchester, in his blue 1969 Camaro<br />
with a six-banger engine.<br />
Songs like “One Man Band” and “Pieces of April”<br />
by Three Dog Night were playing on <strong>the</strong> radio. They<br />
were <strong>the</strong> hot band of <strong>the</strong> times.<br />
When I arrived at Ranette’s house, her fa<strong>the</strong>r,<br />
Randal, escorted me. Ranette looked lovely in her<br />
dark blue, short skirt with white collar and black<br />
hose and black shoes. She had her hair done up<br />
with more curls than normal.<br />
I felt a little nervous, because most of my dates<br />
were a little less refined than Ranette — which is<br />
not to take anything away from those o<strong>the</strong>r girls.<br />
I was just getting to go out with a better date than<br />
normal.<br />
We were already on <strong>the</strong> dance floor when <strong>the</strong><br />
seniors came into <strong>the</strong> dance, one at a time, with<br />
<strong>the</strong>ir dates and joined <strong>the</strong> movement on <strong>the</strong> dance<br />
floor.<br />
Mike Osborn came in grooving to <strong>the</strong> tunes with<br />
Marilyn Moore, E.N. Simon with Lynn Stringer,<br />
Barry Leonard with Linda Martin, and so on.<br />
They made <strong>the</strong> party, as <strong>the</strong>y were having such<br />
a great time, and it made us sophomores feel like<br />
we were really cool being able to be <strong>the</strong>re in <strong>the</strong><br />
celebrations.<br />
The most fun was watching E.N. trying to dance<br />
like <strong>the</strong> bro<strong>the</strong>rs on <strong>the</strong> team, Ronnie Williams,<br />
Andrew Williams and Lawrence Chatman. He gave<br />
it his best shot and wasn’t half bad, but we all knew<br />
we couldn’t dance like our black teammates.<br />
The time of 11:30 p.m. came all too soon, and<br />
Randal said to have Ranette home by midnight, so<br />
it was time to go.<br />
Mike took us to her house first, and <strong>the</strong> garage<br />
door was open, so I got out and walked her to <strong>the</strong><br />
shadow of <strong>the</strong> garage overhang, and she turned<br />
back to me, and we stood <strong>the</strong>re in our embarrassment<br />
wondering what was to come next — to kiss<br />
her or not. Yes or no? Should I go for it?<br />
I didn’t do it! One of <strong>the</strong> most beautiful girls in<br />
<strong>the</strong> class (still is!) and I choked under <strong>the</strong> pressure!<br />
What a dummy! Next, we took Laura home, and<br />
Mike kissed her goodnight while I sat in <strong>the</strong> car<br />
licking my wounds.<br />
At least Ranette and I stayed friends after <strong>the</strong><br />
date, but she too thought I was a dummy.<br />
Anyway, it was a great ending to a first semester,<br />
knowing even more and better things were coming<br />
second semester.<br />

Test group rips protein drinks<br />
By <strong>the</strong> Editors<br />
of Consumer Reports<br />
The promises are enticing.<br />
Whe<strong>the</strong>r one is looking<br />
to shed pounds, get a quick<br />
energy jolt, build muscles or<br />
fight aging, some supplement<br />
makers are boosting<br />
protein drinks as a scientifically<br />
proven way to quickly<br />
achieve those goals.<br />
But Consumer Reports’<br />
investigation, including<br />
tests at an outside lab of<br />
15 protein drinks, a review<br />
of government documents<br />
and interviews with<br />
health and fitness experts<br />
and consumers, found most<br />
people already get enough<br />
protein, and <strong>the</strong>re are far<br />
better and cheaper ways to<br />
add more if it’s needed.<br />
Some protein drinks<br />
can even pose health risks<br />
over time, especially at a<br />
consumption level of three<br />
or more servings a day, due<br />
to <strong>the</strong> potential to consume<br />
harmful heavy metals and<br />
excessive protein.<br />
All drinks in CR’s tests<br />
had at least one sample containing<br />
one or more of <strong>the</strong><br />
following contaminants:<br />
arsenic, cadmium, lead and<br />
mercury. Those metals can<br />
have toxic effects on several<br />
organs in <strong>the</strong> body.<br />
For most drinks CR<br />
tested, levels of those contaminants<br />
were in <strong>the</strong> low<br />
to moderate range, when<br />
<strong>the</strong>y could be detected at<br />
all.<br />
But with three of <strong>the</strong><br />
products, consumers who<br />
have three servings daily<br />
could be exposed to levels<br />
that exceed <strong>the</strong> maximum<br />
limits for one or two of those<br />
contaminants in dietary<br />

Nutritionists and trainers<br />
say <strong>the</strong>y commonly see<br />
people who consume three<br />
servings a day.<br />
The amount of lead in a<br />
single daily serving of eight<br />
of <strong>the</strong> protein supplements<br />
CR tested would require<br />
that <strong>the</strong> products carry a<br />
warning in California.<br />
State legislation known<br />
as Proposition 65 mandates<br />
that manufacturers notify<br />
consumers when products<br />
contain toxic substances<br />
at levels <strong>the</strong> state says<br />
pose even a low cancer or<br />
reproductive risk.<br />
But federal regulations<br />
do not generally require<br />
that protein drinks and<br />
o<strong>the</strong>r dietary supplements<br />
be tested before <strong>the</strong>y are<br />
sold to ensure that <strong>the</strong>y<br />
are safe, effective and free<br />
of contaminants, as <strong>the</strong><br />
rules require of prescription<br />
drugs.<br />
CR purchased 15 protein<br />
powders and drinks<br />
mainly in <strong>the</strong> New York<br />
metro area or online and<br />
tested multiple samples of<br />
each for arsenic, cadmium,<br />
lead and mercury. The results<br />
showed a considerable<br />
range, but levels in three<br />
products were of particular<br />
concern:<br />
• Three daily servings<br />
of <strong>the</strong> ready-to-drink<br />

The CR investigation<br />
notes that cadmium raises<br />
special concern because it<br />
accumulates in and can<br />
damage <strong>the</strong> kidneys, <strong>the</strong><br />
same organs that can be<br />
damaged by excessive<br />
protein consumption. And<br />
it can take 20 years for<br />
<strong>the</strong> body to eliminate even<br />
half <strong>the</strong> cadmium absorbed<br />

CR notes that <strong>the</strong>re are<br />
better, cheaper ways to<br />
bulk up.<br />
Case in point: A sandwich<br />
with 3 ounces of chicken<br />
and an 8-ounce glass of<br />
whole milk provides about<br />
40 grams of protein, which<br />
is more than half <strong>the</strong> 72<br />

Oklahoma head men’s<br />

trip to <strong>the</strong> EA SPORTS<br />
Maui Invitational, road<br />
outings against Arkansas<br />
and Arizona, and<br />
an All-College Classic<br />
matchup against Cincinnati.<br />
“This would be an ambitious<br />
non-conference<br />
schedule for us in any<br />
year,” said Capel, who is<br />
entering his fifth season<br />
at OU. “The fact we have<br />
eight new players makes<br />
it even more of a chal-<br />

important thing.”<br />
lenge. But it’s also very<br />
exciting. We view it as a<br />
great opportunity.”<br />
The Sooners begin <strong>the</strong><br />
regular season Nov. 12<br />
at home against Coppin<br />
State and will host North<br />
Carolina Central (Nov.<br />
15) and Texas Sou<strong>the</strong>rn<br />

some time,” said Capel.<br />
“The tournament will<br />
allow us to see how we<br />
stack up against some of<br />
<strong>the</strong> better teams in <strong>the</strong><br />
country and will give us<br />
an opportunity to grow<br />
up quickly.”<br />
OU will start December<br />
with back-to-back<br />
road games against<br />
Arkansas (Dec. 1) and<br />

DEAR ABBY: When I<br />
was a young teen, my mo<strong>the</strong>r<br />
gave me a copy of your<br />
booklet "What Every Teen<br />
Should Know." She left it on<br />
my bed for me to read at my<br />
own pace, and let me know<br />
that I could come to her if<br />
I had any questions, when I<br />
was ready to ask <strong>the</strong>m.<br />
For years that booklet<br />
served as a reference guide<br />
for me. I also lent it to many<br />
of my friends whose parents<br />
were not so forthcoming<br />
with this important information.<br />
Being informed and not<br />
believing urban myths made<br />
a big difference in our decisions<br />
— and we're all doing<br />
well now.<br />
A decade later, I often<br />
work with teens who have<br />
received no comprehensive<br />
education about sex, drugs,<br />
or <strong>the</strong> impact of decisions<br />
<strong>the</strong>y make during adolescence.<br />
Your booklet remains<br />
an important tool in <strong>the</strong>se<br />
kids' educations. I write<br />

DEAR KRIS-<br />

you for your<br />
endorsement of<br />
my teen booklet.<br />
I am pleased that you<br />
continue to find it useful.<br />
Today many young people<br />
engage in adult activities<br />
at a much earlier age than<br />
<strong>the</strong> teenagers of previous<br />
generations. That's why it<br />
is so important for parents<br />
to take <strong>the</strong> initiative and<br />
discuss alcohol, drugs,<br />
sex and FAMILY VAL-<br />

By Jeanne Phillips<br />
tains answers to commonly<br />
asked questions such as:<br />
How old must a girl be<br />
before she can get<br />
pregnant? Can a<br />
girl get pregnant<br />
<strong>the</strong> first time she<br />
has sex? What<br />
time of <strong>the</strong> month<br />
is a girl 100 percent<br />
safe? How<br />
old must a boy be<br />
before he can fa<strong>the</strong>r<br />

topic covered is HOW<br />

It has been distributed in<br />

to promote discussion by<br />

Elderly couple debating use<br />
of reverse home mortgage<br />
By BRUCE<br />
WILLIAMS<br />
Dear Bruce: We are<br />
an elderly couple in our<br />
late 60s. My husband is a<br />
diabetic, and our insurance<br />
does not cover much of his<br />
medication, which is very<br />
costly.<br />
In order to afford his<br />
medicine, he wants to take<br />
out a reverse mortgage. He<br />
is telling me that if he dies,<br />
I would be able to stay in<br />
our home until I die or<br />
want to sell.<br />
The home would require<br />
upkeep that I am not able<br />
to do. I do not think this<br />
is <strong>the</strong> right thing for us.<br />
— Ann, via e-mail<br />
Dear Ann: Are you not<br />
eligible under Medicare<br />
for <strong>the</strong> prescription help?<br />
It would seem to me that<br />
you should investigate.<br />
Reverse mortgages have<br />
a very definite place. Your<br />
husband is correct when he<br />
says that, even after you’ve<br />
exhausted <strong>the</strong> money that<br />
<strong>the</strong> reverse mortgage gives<br />
you, you are allowed to stay,<br />
or, if you wish, to sell.<br />
If <strong>the</strong> time comes to<br />
sell <strong>the</strong> house, <strong>the</strong> balance<br />
borrowed on <strong>the</strong> reverse<br />
mortgage would have to<br />
be satisfied, whatever remains<br />
would come directly<br />
to you.<br />
Whe<strong>the</strong>r this is for you<br />
is ano<strong>the</strong>r matter. You are<br />
still at <strong>the</strong> low end in terms<br />
of age, where reverse mortgages<br />
yield a great deal.<br />
Obviously, <strong>the</strong> older<br />
<strong>the</strong> person, <strong>the</strong> more <strong>the</strong><br />
amount that <strong>the</strong> companies<br />
would lend, but as<br />
long as you pay <strong>the</strong> taxes<br />
and insurance, you are<br />
able to stay in that home<br />
without ever repaying a<br />
nickel. Whe<strong>the</strong>r this is<br />
a step that you guys are<br />
comfortable with is a personal<br />
decision.<br />
Dear Bruce: How do I<br />
find out if my fa<strong>the</strong>r’s name<br />
is on a property deed on <strong>the</strong><br />
west side of Chicago?<br />
My sister, late bro<strong>the</strong>r<br />
and I were named <strong>the</strong><br />
beneficiaries. He had joint<br />
custody of <strong>the</strong> building<br />
with his live-in girlfriend.<br />
— C.C., via e-mail<br />
Dear C.C.: Go to <strong>the</strong><br />
county clerk’s office with<br />
<strong>the</strong> name and address of<br />
<strong>the</strong> property, and <strong>the</strong> legal<br />
description and <strong>the</strong> owners’<br />
names will appear in <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
records.<br />

Weed-free hay program set<br />
State hay growers<br />
have not been able to sell<br />
hay or mulch to contractors<br />
working on federal<br />
construction projects because<br />
Oklahoma had no<br />
program to certify <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
products “weed free,” as<br />
required by law.<br />
That will change next<br />
week as a new certification<br />
process goes into<br />
effect.<br />
Created by HB 1583<br />
by State Sen. Ron Justice<br />
and State Rep. Eddie<br />
Fields, <strong>the</strong> Oklahoma<br />
Weed Free Certification<br />
Program will allow<br />
growers to have <strong>the</strong>ir hay<br />
meadows inspected up to<br />
10 days before cutting.<br />
