A Shriner brings his smile, American flags and a tiny "Tin Lizzie" car just big enough for one to the annual parade in Baker City Saturday. Various tiny car groups, even bathtubs on wheels, keep the streets lively. Temperatures already were nearing 100 by parade time, but that has never kept a kid from candy-snatching opportunities.

Extreme drought conditionsthis year are effecting the local water supply and mandatory usage restrictions may come into play before summer ends for Baker City residents. The city's watershed continuesto provide less water than normal as the summer progresses. City staff have been monitoring usage and will make a determination by Tuesday whether mandatorywater use restrictions will be implemented, Michelle Owen, Public Works director, said. "If the curtailment ordinanceisactivated then it would be activated at Stage 2 and odd/even irrigation would be required of residents rather than just voluntary as it is now," she stated in an email. At Stage 2 the city's water curtailment ordinance allows the city to impose restrict ions on water usage. When demand for water to the city's users is 80percent ofthe water supply and Goodrich and the aquiferstorage recov-

ery iASRl well are being used,Stage 2 is triggered. Stages 3 and 4 are put into place when Goodrich is at half and quarter capacityrespectively and demand is at 90 percent. At Stage 3, lawn watering and car and driveway washing will be prohib-

ited and parks, cemetery, school and sports complex irrigation will cease. At Stage 4 — which is emergency status — only water for human and animal consumptmn, and waterfor proper health and sanitation will be allowed from the domestic water supply. The water curtailment ordinance can be read at the city's website: www. bakercity.com/government/ ordinances. Since the beginning of July, municipal water users have been asked by the city to voluntarily conservewater by irrigating on odd or even dates correspondingtotheir addresses. iThis means that if your address is an odd number you should irrigate on the odd daysofthe month and if your address ends in an even number you should irrigateon even days of the month.) Larry McBroom, the city's engineering supervisor, estimates that the voluntary conservation has saved about a million gallonsofwater per day since the request. The school district, parks and cemetery were asked to limit their irrigation before the voluntary request was made of city users, Owen said. The city has asked them to conservea little mo re.

TURNING BACK THE PAGES 50 YEARS AGO from the Democrat-Herald August 3, 1965 The Anthony Lakes Corporation submitted the only bid for a 20-year term permit for the development of the winter sports site atAnthony Lakes, the U.S Forest Service announced late yesterday. The bid, two percent of sales subject to fee and other income, was sent to the Forest Service's regional office at Portland after the bid was opened yesterday. 25 YEARS AGO from the Democrat-Herald August 3, 1990 Steve McLean of Baker City placed third at the Superior Bass Fishing Association tournament July 28-29 on Brownlee Reservoir. McLean's efforts in the pro division earned him $700. He currently is in first place in the running for "angler of the year" on the SBFA circuit. 10 YEARS AGO from the Baker City Herald August 3, 2005 When Russell Elms' temperature hit 104 it occurred to him that perhaps the tick, which he had plucked from his neck with a pair of tweezers five days earlier, was no ordinary arachnid. Elms certainly didn't feel ordinary. Even before he started to swelter with fever, his joints achedlike abscessed teeth.And he was asfatigued as a marathoner plodding through the 26th mile. ONE YEAR AGO from the Baker City Herald August 4, 2014 A relentless barrage of thunderstorms during the weekend brought hail and torrential rain to parts of Baker County as well as hundreds of lightning bolts that ignited more than two dozen wildfires. Most of the new blazes are less than one acre. But a group of fires ignited Friday night or early Sunday in the North Fork John DayWilderness northeast of Granite prompted the Wallowa-Whitman National Forest to close a pair of hiking trails and patt of a forest road. Dubbed the Mount Ireland Complex, the fires are mainly in the Baldy Creek area north of Mount Ireland, which is topped by a Wallowa-Whitman fire lookout station. The biggest of the blazes has burned about 20 acres.

The Relay for Life fundraiser crowns Charline Simmons as queen of the event. As a cancer survivor, Simmons joined her teammates and the other teams Friday night and Saturday morning at Baker High School to earn money for cancer research. Ten teams and a total of 118 participants took part in the event. Preliminary numbers show the total funds raised at $23,500. All

money raised goes to the American Cancer Society.

cities,farmsface watercuts PORTLAND iAP) — A deepening drought in the Pacific Northwest is forcing some cit ies,farms and state agencies to cut back on water use. Eleven cities and towns across Oregon have imposed some form of water conservation, The Oregonian reported. Those range from simply askingresidents toexercise restraint to threatening $300 fines for anyone who turns on the hose without permission. Lake Oswego wants residentstoaim for a 10 percent reduction in water use, and a water conservationist is going house to house to help peoplecraftwatering plans that keeps plants alive with minimal irrigation. The city, which takes its water from the Clackamas River, said it isn't running out, but cutting use is "just responsible," said the city'swaterconservation coordinator, Kevin McCaleb. In Portland, Water Bureau officials said they expect to avoid citywide cutbacks this year, but the reservoir which supplies Portland's municipal water is 3 billion gallonsshort ofitsaverage July supply. To make up the difference, water managers are pumping groundwater from wells near the Columbia River. And in Ashland, city

workersare carpeting street medians with artificial turf and offering cash incentives for residents who swap their lawns for drought-hardy landscapes. aWe'rereally focused on making the long-term changes that will help us in the future," said Julie Smitherman, Ashland's water conservation specialist. The situation is most dire in Oakridge and Junction City, where water levels in wells have dropped significantiy. In both cities, it's now illegal to water lawns and gardens outside of approved dates and times. Those who don't comply face fines. That approach is now common in California, which is in the fourth year of the drought. California's governor has ordered a 25 percent statewide reduction in urban water use compared to 2013, leading communities to limit lawn watering, impose fines and add drought penalties to water bills to dissuade consumption. Late last week in Oregon, Gov. Kate Brown ordered all state agencies to limit water use in an effort to reduce the state government's water budget by 15 percent over the next five years. Diana Enright of the Oregon Water Resources Department said the agency

is sharpeningits focus on long-term water conservation, given the strong evidence that Oregon's days of abundant snowpack and comfortable summers are numbered. aWest of the Cascades, we see Oregon — and the rest of the country sees Oregon — as a rainy place," Enright said."If it's not that rainy, snowy place anymore, what does that new world look

like?" Brown has also declared drought emergencies in 23 of Oregon's 36 counties, a move that grants the state waterdepartment greater authority to regulate water rights and qualifies farmers and ranchers for federal assistance. In Washington state, several cities including Seattle, Everett and Tacoma have activatedwater shortage plans. And in Vancouver, B.C., residents areforbidden from watering plants or washing cars. Some farm irrigators have also been told to use less water. Surface water irrigators along the Klamath Basin's Sprague River have been told to turn off their spigots. Anyone else in the basin with water rights obtained after 1905 has been regulated off to save water for senior water users.

Continued from Page1A "We've asked the school districtto cut back a little more than they have been ithis is at the school buildings, not the sports complex)," Owen said. "The cemetery will not be watering on Mondays as that seems to be a high demand day. Cemetery is still at 50 percent of the water iusage) and parks are between 50-75 percentofnormal irrigation." In spite of a record rainfall of 2.72 inches in July, the city's water supply is not in great shape. The mid-July rains mostly drenched the valley. While agricultural water users benefitted, the record-breaking rains negligibly affected the streams and springs in the city's watershed 10 miles west of town. To make the situation worse, May rains melted a meager snowpack in the watershed that usually remains into June or July and helps to keep water flows at a higher rate through early summer. As a result, the fresh mountain water that comes from the Baker City Watershed is supplying the city with significantly less water than in typical years. Owen said the watershed is currently delivering only 3.5 million gallons of waterper day to the city'sw ater facility. That is down a million gallons per day from two weeks ago. Typical mid-July flows in other years can be as much as 6.5 million gallons per day. Summer water usage in Baker City can exceed 7 million gallons of water per day. Average daily usage for July 1-26 ithe city's daily usage report through the end of the month was not available at press time) has been about 4 million gallons per day. Diminished use during the rainsactual use during that time was around 2 million to 3 million gallons daily — contributedto a lower average. Water use did drop significantly during the July rains for several days. Usage fell to just over 2 million gallons per day on July 12 and didn't exceed 3 million until July 17. Lower temperatures from July

July 2015 was the wettest July on record at the Baker CityAirport, where records date to1943. Average July rainfall is 0.67 inches. The soggiest Julys at the airport:

• 2.72" — 2015 • 2.33" — 1982 • 2.27" — 1997 22-26correspond with daily decreases in usage of about a million gallons per day. "As you can see, the water use fluctuates with temperature and rainfall. It certainly shows that the town can survive the summer using around 2.1 million gallons per day when not irrigating." Owen stated. She said current demand has been 5 million to 6 million gallons per day. Usually not tapped until late August, Goodrich Reservoir is already being used to help supply the water needs of municipal water users. Owen said about 1.5 million gallons of water is currently being used from the reservoir — which holds about 200 million gallons of water — to supplement the watershed's output. The ASR well is also being utilized as well. "Water usage is still higher than what the watershed can produce, so the ASR well is used to catch up with demand," stated McBroom in his weekly report. Owen said in an email to the Herald that she can't control Mother Nature and can't predict the weather. "I would anticipate that the watershed streams would continue to diminish and further use of Goodrich Reservoir water will be required," Owen said. "August will be challenging, but I believe a cooperative effort will get us through."

ues on Editorial from The (Bend) Bulletin; Oregon lawmakers had a fairly easy time of it this year. In 2017,they may not be so lucky.Two huge expenses loom beginning in 2017, with no offsetting jump in the dollars the state collects. The state itself, plus just about every city, county, school district and other public agency here will be on

the hook for a total of about$345 million in annual payments to the state Public Employees Retirement System come 2017. At the same time, the state's bill for the Oregon Health Plan, its Medicaid program,

ewon ero ' etter oo n '

will go up by about $500 million for the 2017-19 bienPERS costs will jump in large part because the Oregon Supreme Court ruled in May that most of the reforms approved by the 2013 Legislature are unconstitutional. That may be good news for retirees; it's less so for current teachers and their students. As an article in Willamette Week noted in May, the unexpected PERS payments combined with automatic pay increases written into many public agency contracts nearly assure that new money from Salem will do little to reduce class sizes or otherwise improve education. As for the Oregon Health Plan, its problems are twofold. The state was far more successful than it expected to be in signing up new OHP clients last year, enrolling about 165,000 more new clients than it had thought it would. In addition, the state will lose some $381 million in federal funds it's receiving now. The shik is not unexpected, but it does present a

challenge. Nor will the state be able to simply tax the wealthy and business enough to make up the difference. There are not enough of either. Oregon already has one of the highest personal income tax rates in the United States, lagging behind only California and Hawaii. Moreover, those with

incomes above$300,000already accountforabout22 percent of personal income tax revenue, though they make up less than 2 percent of payers. All of which raises one big question: Where will that extra $1 billion come from?

By Gina Barreca You could say my lack of vanity makes me very proud. And then you could laugh. It's true that I clean up just fine for special occasions. I have six outfits I can wear doing anything, from giving the opening night lecture at the Women's Campaign School at Yale to offeringemotional support ata pet funeral. The signature pieces are long jackets and black pants, accompanied by a scarf that can be reversed or removed if I spill food or beverages onit. I can count on these clothes to get me through several hours without embarrassing myself or anyone else. But as anybody who's seen me in the produce aisle of my local supermarket can attest, I don't spend a lot of time looking in mirrors, worrying about my body image or styling any partofmyself(hair,wardrobe,capped teeth) for ordinary non-occasion days. I'll do a quick glance on the way out the door just to make sure my glasses arestraight,my shoelaces are tied and my bra is hooked; we're talking basic. I'm clean, I'm age-appropriate and, as far as I can tell, not in violation of any codes whether social, moral or zoning. And yet I have a confession to make: There probably isn't a day that goes by where I don't wonder — even now, at age 58 — what life would be like if I were "better looking." I put the phrase in quotation marks because I'm not sure what it means. "Better" than who, exactly, and who is

it, in my imagination, that's doing all this looking? Let's face it: I'm not interested in shimmying down the street and getting ogled. I hated that kind of attention as soon asIrealized ithad nothing to do with whether or not I was pretty and everything to do with whether I was in some guy's line ofsight. Being catcalled is not like being flattered. It's like being looted. Having unfamiliar men suck their teethatme while I'm stopped for ared light made me feel less like a pageant winner and more like a puppy treat. I was relieved to inherit the cloak of invisibility that's the superpower of women after a certain age. I'm certainly not searching for a flirtation or extra-curricular hijinks. I have a better chance of showing up on a website linked to Laura Ashley than Ashley Madison. Do I perhaps want other women to envy my looks? Here's another point when you could laugh. I have an esprit de corps with many, many women based on, well, our corps. We cheer each other on toward enjoying health, vigor and cake, not necessarily in that order. My tribe of women is the loud, funny and smart one. I regard other women as my community, not my competition. So am I looking for reassurance closer to home? I wondered about this during a recent conversation. My husband of 24 years(that'sthe age ofthemarri age,

not the age of the husband; I might be neurotic but I haven't lost my mind) and I were on a long trip. He was listening to the news and I was in the passengerseatlooking in thevisor's mirror. During a commercial break, Michael looked in my direction and asked, more out of curiosity than concern, 'What are you doing?" I said,"I'm trying to getrid of my chin." Michael said, "It's not going to work." I then explained that the correct answer is 'What chin?" and not"It's not going to work." (Other fine answers would include 'You couldn't possibly look more wonderful!" or "Silly you! I've always been charmed by your chin and I always will be." In fact, "It's not going to work" would be precisely the wrong answer.) When I pointed this out, Michael and I laughed for the next 15 miles. The only person for whom I wish I were better looking, then, turns out to be my harshest inner critic: Vanity's meaner sister. My entire life, she's been telling me I'm not good enough. But I've come to realize that maybe I am. And from now on I'm laughing her out of the room.

Your views Lawmakers did some good for rural Oregon in recent session The Oregon Legislature currently holds a Democratic majority to the dismay and vociferous negative comments of many fellow conservatives. But, all is not bad and the system is not broken and Salem does not deserve extremecriticism forthe 2015 session. Many good bills were passed, many were bipartisan, some remain yet to beresolved (transportationl and most all representatives and senatorsarehonorablepeoplejusttrying to dothe bestto represent their constituents. Not all bills were for the west side. Rep. Cliff Bentz and Sen. Ted Ferrioli did a fine job

in looking out for Eastern and rural Oregon. One bill in particular, HB 2075 favored rural Oregon with equal support fiom liberals and conservatives, passing the House and Senate with a 90 percent majority. HB 2075 was submitted by Oregon Aviation Industries to increase aviation funding by $20 million over the next six years by raising aviation fuel tax by 2 cents per gallon. Nearly all of the funds are focused on rural Oregon for aviationeconomic development,ruralairservice, grant matches, infrastructure, emergency preparedness and safety. Our team spent many months at the Capitol and we were all very impressed

with the committee hearings, work sessions, citizen input and relationships developed with legislators. At least on this bill, rural Oregon was heard loud and strong and it was a big win for the east side. If you couldn't be there in personto observetheprocess,the Stateprovidesvideo archives and the progressofbills. www.oravi.org/HB2075 is one good example of democracy in action for the benefit of rural communities.

Power contests

projects By Keith Ridler Associated Press

BOISE — Idaho Power is asking state officials to rulethat 10 solar projectsproposed for central Idaho are instead one big projectand should fallunder a different set of regulations more favorableto the energy company. The Idaho Public Utilities Commission last week opened a case concerning Site Based Energy's project near Bellevue and is taking public comments through Aug. 14. "These ten projects are alllocated at the same site, on the same contiguous property, and divided into ten sections," Idaho Power said in its request to the commission. Site Based Energy officials said they are stand-alone projects with different owners but with common ownership of some connecting equipment to save money. "The use of a shared locationprovides econom ies of scale for construction, purchasing of equipment, and similar design, but it doesn't make it one project," said Site Based Energy Project Manager John Reuter in an email to The Associated Press. Each of the projects is listed as being able to produce 100kilowatts. Projectsthat size receive a rate set by the commission and a 20-year contract. Projects larger than that must negotiate a rate based on Idaho Power's most recent Integrated Resource Plan. The contract length at the most would be five years. "If the commission sides with Idaho Power, this will kill Site Based Energy's ten projects," Reuter said, noting longer contracts are needed to make capital investments. For Idaho Power, longer contracts can be burdensome because they might not mesh with the company's Integrated Resource Plan that identifies sources of power, when power is needed and how power can be obtained at the cheapestrate. "A primary focus is the contract length," Idaho Power spokesman Brad Bowlin said. "That's really the issue." The solar setup proposed incentral Idaho falls under the Public Utilities Regulatory Policies Act, or PURPA, created in1978 to promote alternativeresources. In Idaho, a combination of federalregulations and tax incentives under the act, cheaper solar panels, plentiful sunshine in much of the stateand a rate-calculatingmethod developed by the commission itself has made solar power economically attractive. Not counting the central Idaho projects, the commission has approved about a dozen solar power projects in the last year. Reuter said planning, engineering and site testing has been done for the solar projects in central Idaho but construction hasn't started.

A temporary home for the cutthroat has not been determined, but they will likely be held in headwater tributaries that will not be treated with rotenone or in big stock tanks or hatcherytrucks,Koelsaid. eWe should be able to gather up the fish and then move them into trucks with tanks," Koel said.

JACKSON, Wyo. iAPlBefore moving ahead with a plantodestroy exoticbrook trout in Yellowstone National Park's Soda Butte Creek, fisheries managers will first try to capture native cutthroat trout from the stream tosalvage them. In response to public comment, Yellowstone decided to sweep Soda Butte to gather live cutthroat, adding a step to its usual protocol for restoring a fluvial fishery back to its native fish. Rotenone, a piscicide, will then go into Soda Butte's waters to kill off the mostly remaining nonnative brook trout, Yellowstone fisheries program leader Todd Koel said. "The idea is that we're going toelectroshock the existing cutthroat trout that are in upper Soda Butte and move them to a refuge," Koel said.

RENTON, Wash.— Russell Wilson is sticking around with the Seattle Seahawks. Wilson tweeted Friday morning that he has agreed to a four-year contract extension with the Seahawks, keeping him with the tranchise that took him in the third round of the 2012 draft and watched him become one of the most successful young quarterbacks in NFL history. "Blessed to be w/ this organizationfor4 m oreyears! Can't wait to get on field w/ the fellas!"Wilson tweeted shortly before Seattle's first trainingcamp practice. The team had not confirmed the agreement and Wilson's representatives did not immediately return messages seeking comment. MMQB.com reported the extension is for four years

PORTLAND — "Rowdy" Roddy Piper, the kilt-wearing trash-talker who headlined the first WrestleMania and later found movie stardom, died Friday. He was 61. The WWE confirmed the death. The wrestling organization provided no additional details. Piper, born Roderick Toombs in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, is the second WWE Hall of Famer to die this summer, following the June death of"The American Dream" Dusty Rhodes. Piper's death also comes days after Hulk Hogan, his biggest rival for decades, was fired by the WWE. Hogan had used racial slurs in a conversation captured on a sex tape. Piper and Hogan battled for years and headlined some of the biggest matches during the 1980s. Hogan and Mr. T beat Piper and Paul Orndortf on March 31, 1985, at the first WrestleMania at Madison Square Garden in a bout that featured Muhammad Ali as the guest referee. Piper was a villain for the early portion ofhis career, once cracking a coconut over the skull of Jimmy eSuperfly" Snuka in a segment for his popular WWF talk show called "Piper's Pit."

Ducks 8 is still By Dan Greenspan Associated Press

BURBANK, Calif.— If former Eastern Washington star Vernon Adams is the next starting quarterback at Oregon, Ducks head coach Mark Heltrich isn't saying. Helfrich wouldn't address Adams' status with the program,hisprospects to replace Heisman Trophy winner Marcus Mariota — or even refer to the FCS first-team All-American by name at Pac-12 media days on Friday. "I know everybody will want to address the quarterback position, and the only thing we're going to talk aboutarethe peoplethat are here and involved in the program," Heltrich said. Adams threw for 10,438 yards and 110 touchdowns in three seasons at Eastern Washington, producing particularly memorable performancesagainst Pac-12 opponents. Adams passed for 411 yards and four touchdowns and rushed for 107 yards and two TDs in a 2013 win at Oregon State,

own

and he threw for 475 yards and seven touchdowns in a 59-52lossatW ashington last season against a Huskies defensethat featured three first-round draft picks. Adams announced in February he would transfer to Oregon, where he would be immediately eligible for his senior season as a graduate transfer. However, Adams has not completed course work to obtain his degree trom Eastern Washington, and might miss the start of the Ducks' fall camp. aWe're just worried about the guys we have," linebacker Rodney Hardrick said."Our coaching staff is amazing. I'm confident whatever situation we're put in, we're going to make the best out of it. We're going to go to war with who we have each and every day." Jeff Lockie, Mariota's backup for the last two seasons, took the majority of first-team reps during spring practice and received strong marks trom teammates and Helfrich. "He improvedalot,"

Hardrick said."He's very efficient, and I'm excited to see what he can do. At times I felt like he was thinking too much. Once he relaxed and now is more comfortable in his position I think he's going to doa lotofgood things." What Lockie lacks in game experience, having attempted just 41 career passes, he makes up for in familiarity with the prolific up-tempo spread offense that has lifted Oregon to national prominence. Lockie has a point guard mentality and is willing to distribute the ball to the Ducks' strong collection of skill players, Helfrich said, That approach is exactly what the second-year coach is looking for to replace Mariota. That will mean handing the ball to Pac-12 offensive freshman of the year Royce Freeman at running back and getting itoutin space to a groupofwidereceiversthat includes Byron Marshall, Charles Nelson and even Bralon Addison.

— Logan Morrison hadn't taken batting practice in the cage for four days because of a sore thumb and had only recently started swinging again since leaving a game on Wednesday. The lack of practice didn't matter Sunday when he steppedtothe plate in extra innings. Morrison's RBI double in the 11th inning broke a tie and Austin Jackson added a two-run double as the Seattle Mariners outlasted the Minnesota Twins 4-1. ''When you barrel it, you don't feel it no matter how

bad your hand hurts," Morrtson said.

Hitting for the first time in the game after pinchrunning for Robinson Cano, Morrison drove a pitch from Brian Duensing to the wall in right-centerfield to score rookieKetel Marte. Duensing had relieved Kevin Jepsen i2-6l, who lost in his Minnesota debut afterbeing acquired before Friday's trading deadline. Morrison hasn't started since injuring his thumb but came off the bench for the second straightgame. Marte had three hits and a walk.

Celebrating with cake on the lake M y idea ofa perfectday wo uld almost be incomplete without my family in aboat on alake or river. This vision of bliss has been incorporated into a family tradition that we simply call"Cake on the Lake." It all started a few years ago when we first moved to La Grande. My husband's birthday is in late September and this particular day we had just enough time to throw our canoe on top of our carand head up toAnthony Lake when he got home from work. I often fail when it comes to being sentimental or planning ahead to make certaindays special,butforonceIwas on top of it enough to make the day memorable. While canoeing and enjoying the beautiful scenery I pulled out a thermos of ice cream and a Tupperware with cake. In the middle of the lake, which we had all to ourselves, we sang Happy Birthday. Itwas aperfectevening and itfelt like our new home was just the place we hadbeen looking for.M y husband remarked that it was one of the best birthdays he had ever had. Thus began our new tradition. A few weeks ago my son echoed the same sentiment as we were at Jubilee Lake for his fifth birthday, 'This is the best day ever!" The morning had been spent riding bikes with his friends, then when his dad got home we headed up to Jubilee. SeeCake/Page 3B

Reunion celebrates

bygone days Sunday, Aug. 9, 2015, is coming up rapidly. Calendars are hopefully marked for the 50th anniversary of the annual Pondosa Picnic. It is being feted this year at the Catherine Creek State Park out of Union. I haven't heard the starting time, but I would imagine it to be an all day affair with the noon hour planned for the potluck shared picnic. Since I don't run photos with my column I can't share the one that came by email showing folks in 1957 having a tug of war. They also had sack races, ice cream, and what they termed as "more." This year the planning committee is urging those who attend to bring along old pictures and written memories to share with the group of attendees. With the celebrating of 50 years, it should be quite a day and one worth remembering into old age. I've never been to Pondosa that I can recall easily, so I can't really report on anything about it, but it just sounds like another one of those activities that drawsremembrances tobe relived over and over again. Realizing that this had been another community in our area about which I knew (or remembered) practically nothing except that it was a logging town, I turned to Lee C. Johnson's "A Brief History of Union County, Oregon," first published in abbreviated form by the La Grande Evening Observer in 1949 to get its description. SeeDory/Page 3B

This rustic cherry tart with ricotta and almonds is a no-fail, not-too-sweet treat. By Karen Kain For the Baker City Herald

I love this time of year when freshfruitseems to beeverywhere. There is something rewarding about picking fresh fruit to include in my recipes. Thanks to my wonderful neighbors for sharing their cherries with me. This week I have a few differentrecipes that Ienjoyed making because they were simple and simply delicious; the cherry granita recipe is the perfect summer treat, sweet and sophisticated. I was pretty skeptical when I made the rustic cherry tart, as I was unsure how the ricotta would blend in, but I love pie crustand thisrecipe had a lot of it. It is a pretty basic no-fail recipe and not too sweet. I think the amaretto added to the cherry juice makes it close to perfect. I dried cherries and they will be servedwith goat cheese (that I am currently making) to be included in a salad with the Sweet cherry vinegar as a dressing. I will share that with you soon. This summer has been really lovely and I am so grateful for all your ideas. Stay cool my friends.

Lis oniswa a e,visitor rien Being dropped off at a hotel in the middle of a large city can be rather daunting. This time it was Lisbon, capital and largest city of Portugal, with a population of 552,700. For the next three days our home was to be the Hotel Tivoli located on the beautiful Avenida da Liberdade (Liberty Avenue). It didn't take long to realize that this city (pronounced leezh-BOH-ah by those who live there) is walkable and extremely visitor friendly. Although Lisbon had been established for more than a thousand years, it was only following the devastating earthquake of 1755, that, in the rebuilding, great planswere executed to createa city tobe functional far into the future while preserving the past. The visionary man responsible for this was the then Marquis of Pombal. I mention this because the Avenida da Liberdade in front of our hotel was built not just for the 18th century, but created wide enough for whatever vehicles were to come long after horses and carriages. Liberty Avenue was my first real experience of Portugal and I was fascinated. The one I was seeing was the remodeled version createdin 1879.Thisversion is295 feet wide and 3,608 feet long connecting two large squares. It has six to 10 lanes of trafflc

They were lined with trees and decorated with gardens, statues, fountains and benches. It, amazingly, all went together to createa serene park in the middle of city trafflc and led one from the hotel to the lively downtown shopping and restaurant area. A short walk down the avenue took us to one of the city's three operating funiculars. This was the Gloria built in 1885. The track is 869.5feetlong and average grade is 18 percent.

DORY Continued from Page 1B It was disappointing to find that Pondosa wasn't listed in the Table of Contents, skipping from Perry to Starkey, so I then dug into my box of old books and found a partial one written by Bernal D. Hug and published by the Union County Historical Society in 1961. The book had no cover but started with Chapter I on Geography, so I had the entire contents ending with Union Junction, the book a survivor of the fire that destroyed the Eastern Oregon Review newspaper and building on Depot Street in

1975. Under the alphabetical listing of towns, I found an article on Pondosa along with several photos, one an air view, the sale day at the store at Pondosa, and Pondosa as a ghost town. Here is some of what I found. Pondosa was one mile south of Medical Springs on the upper end of Big Creek. Justus Wright took up a homestead there in the early 1880s. Hug stated that the property had passed on to the ownership of Claud Turner when the Stoddard Lumber Co. purchased it in 1926 for a sawmill location. Extensive logging roads and a railroad line were constructed in the hills, and buildings for an 80,000 capacity mill and planer were constructed along with residences for the workers. By 1928 their postoffice opened on Sept. 27, according to ePostoffices of Idaho, Washington,and Oregon" by Landis. During the construction period the Collins Lumber Co. acquired ownership.

Pondosa, described by Hug was a town of"busy, happy mill workers and loggers." It had a four-room school, store, water system, and even a paved road to Union and Baker City. Who purchased the mill next, Hug didn't report, but ithad been sold prior to March 1, 1959, when it was announced that the mill would be closed. On May 5, 1959, the mill and town of Pondosa was sold at public auction. The post office closed on March 31, 1959, priorto the sale. It wasinteresting to read that surveys were trying to locate the exact center of the 50 U. S. states, and they established it as being 11 miles northeast in the high hills, which would have Pondosa's location. A newspaper, Hug reported, had carried the story about the town in the center of the United States selling at Powder

public auction. By the time Hug wrote his book, Pondosa no longer had a post office and the old mill site was just a large sawdust pile. It had become a ghost town. The writer put it poignantly: "Man has gone; all is still down main street, just the wind drifting dead leaves here and there." And, there the book story ends. However, if Pondosa still survived through annual picnics since 1957, then its true spirit never succumbed to the destruction of its mill and buildings, homes and businesses, or railroad. It still lives in the hearts, minds, and memories of those who attend the annual Pondosa picnic. Remember the Sunday, Aug. 9, 2015, noon Pondosa Potluck and help celebrate its 50th year anniversary.

Noah, Gus and Austin Hawks celebrate with cake at Jubilee Lake.

CAKE Continued from Page 1B

We had high hopes of catching fish while we were canoeing but we didn't have a single bite. So, we sang and had our cake and ice cream out on the water. Then we went to shore where we ate dinner sitting on the dock. As we were eating, the fish were starting to rise so we pulled out the poles to give it another try. We're

novices to the sport but our boys love it. Fortunately the fish were complying and the evening was all the more exciting as we caught several trout to take home. For our 5-yearold it was the perfect way to celebratehisbirthday. Every family is different and celebratesspecialoccasions in different ways. We have found that incorporating nature into our celebrations makes the day all the more memorable.

In years to come our kids probablywon't remember what gifts they received on any particular birthday. More importantly we have high hopes that they will have fond memories of spending time together as a family, knowledge that they are loved, and a perspective on the important things in life. Meg Hawks is a La Grande mom. She enjoys spending time outdoors with her family and friends.

Lentils a 6 er, rotein an taste reatins a By Jill Wendholt Silva The ICansas City Star (TNS)

The lentil's distinctive shape led ancient astronom ers and physiciststo refer to it by the Latin word for "lens," according to Sheryl and Mel London, authors of"The Versatile Grain and the Elegant Bean" iSimon & Schusterl. Although lentils' exact ortgm 1s unknown, vartous cultures, including the Middle East and India, use its many colorful varieties as a meat alternative. For The Star's Summer Lentil Salad, we're especially fond of the earthy taste of French green lentils iLe Puyl, but they can be a tad tricky to track down, requiring a trip to a specialty store. Although these quick-cooking legumes are basically interchangeablein recipes, green lentils retain their shape when cooked. Lentils are rich in fiber and contain a steak's worth of protein, folate, iron, phosphorous and potassium. Adding cherry tomatoes, cucumber and red bell pepper pumps up their nutritional profile. Leftovers are excellent, and salad can be kept up to two to three days. For optim um flavor, addwa lnuts and fetajustbeforeserving. Preparation tips:Toasting intensifies the flavor of the walnuts. To toast them,

spread in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake at 350 degreesfor5 to 7 m inutesor until lightly toasted. To quickly and easily seed a cucumber, slice the cucumber lengthwise. Use the tip of asmall spoon to scoop out the seeds. Serving suggestions: For more crunch, add one carrot, chopped,threetofour radishes, chopped, and/or one stalkofcelery,chopped,if desired. Or serve in lettuceleaves as a lettuce wrap or in split pita bread pockets.

SUMMER LENTIL SALAD Makes 12 side dish servings or 6 main dish servings (total yield 6"/4 cups) 1 cup green lentils 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved 1 medium cucumber, not peeled, seeded and chopped 1 red bell pepper, chopped /2medium red onion, chopped

3 tablespoons white wine vinegar 1 tablespoon olive oil 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard 2 cloves garlic, minced Fresh ground black pepper 1 tablespoon fresh minced mint 1 tablespoon capers, rinsed and drained "/4 cup chopped walnuts, toasted "/4 cup crumbled reduced fat feta cheese Cook lentils in boiling water according to package directions, until tender. Drain. In a large bowl, stir together the tomatoes, cucumber, red pepper and red onion. Stir in lentils. In a small bowl, whisk together vinegar, olive oil, rnutard, garlic and pepper. Drizzle over lentils and vegetables and toss to coat evenly. Add mint and capers and toss to combine. Cover and refrigerate 1 hour or up to several hours so flavors blend. Sprinkle with walnuts and feta just before serving.

WASHINGTON — Aiming tojoltthe restofthe world to action, President Barack Obama moved ahead Sunday with even tougher greenhouse gas cuts on American power plants, setting up a certain confrontation in the courts with energy producers and Republican-led states. In finalizing the unprecedented pollution controls, Obama was installing the core ofhis ambitious and controversial plan to drastically reduce overall U.S. emissions, as he works to secure a legacy on fighting global warming. Yet it will be up to Obama's successor to implement his plan, amid steepRepublican opposition thathas reverberated from Capitol Hill to the 2016 presidential campaign frail. "Climate change is not a problem for another generation," Obama said."Not anymore." Opponents planned to sue immediately, and to ask the courts to put the rule on hold while legal challenges play out. Many states have threatened not to comply. Last year, the Obama administratio n proposed the first greenhouse gas limits on existing power plants in U.S. history, triggering a yearlong review and 4 million public comments to the Environmental Protection Agency. In avideo posted toFacebook,Obama saidhe would

a"bridge fuel" whose growing use can help the U.S. wean itself off dirtier coal power while ramping up renewable energy capacity. The final version aims to keep the share of natural gas in the nation's power mix at current levels. Under the final rule, states will also have an additional two years — until 2022 — to comply, yielding to complaints that the original deadline was too soon. They11 alsohave an additional year to submit their implementation plans to Washington, said the offtcials, who spoke on condition of anonymity because Obama has yet to publicly announce the details. In an attempt to encourage statesto take action before 2022,the federalgovernment plans to offer credits to states thatboostrenewable sources like wind and solar in 2020 and 2021. 'The move toward a world safe from climate change is beginning in earnest," said Fred Krupp, president of the Environmental Defense Fund.

The final version imposes stricter carbon dioxide limits on states than was previously expected: a 32 percent cut by 2030, compared to 2005 levels, senior administration officials said. Obama's proposedversion lastyearcalled only for a 30 percent cut. Energy industry advocates said the revision makes Obama's mandate even more burdensome and impossible to meet. But environmental groups and Democrats said they would push back — including Hillary Rodham Clinton, who used the occasion to criticize her GOP opponents in the presidential raceforfailing to offera credible alternative. "It's a good plan, and as president, I'd defend it," Clinton said. Another key change to the initial proposal marks a majorshiftfor Obama on natural gas, which the president has championed as
