• Baker City's one-year moratorium on opening of medical marijuana dispensaries ends May 1, 2015

e

Baker City Police Chief Wyn Lohner wants the City Council to resume its discussion about ways the city could ban medical marijuana dispensaries.

Councilors will convene Tuesday at 7 p.m. at City Hall, 1655 First St. In April the City Council approved a one-year moratorium prohibiting medical marijuana stores from opening in the city.

That ban ends May 1, 2015.

"In order to ensure Marijuana Dispensaries do not open in our community, further council action is needed," Lohner wrote in a reporttocouncilors.

Options include an outright ban on such businesses, or a business license ordinance to effectively prohibit them so long as marijuana remains illegal under federal law.

Lohner suggests councilors schedule a specialmeeting to discuss thematter,or appoint a committee to come up with recommendations.

A1935 Studebaker Dictator Coupe attracts attention during the Memory Cruise show-andshine Saturday at Geiser-Pollman Park. The car is owned by Jim McBath of Meridian, Idaho.

Approximately175 cars participated in the 24th-annual cruise, according to Dan Haberman, an event organizer.

A hailstorm, most generally, qualifies as a nuisance.

Combine it with a classic car show, though, and you've got a potential nightmare.

Fortunately the dark clouds that amassed over Baker City on Friday night, the first day of the 24th-annual Memory Cruise, slunk away without dropping anything dangerous over an estimated 175 vintage automobiles that gathered in Baker City.

In the storm's wake was a sunny Saturday, and one of the larger turnouts in the show's history, said Wayne Ryder, one of the organizers.

"I think it was very successful," Ryder said this morning. ewe had about 20 more cars than last year. This was right up there with our biggest attendance ever."

Ryder said about 175 cars attended, and many of those participated not only in the show-and-shine Saturday morning and afternoon at Geiser-

Powerfulquakerattles N. alifornia • Temblor centered near Napa was strongest in the region since 1989 BayArea quake

By Ellen Knickmeyer and Sudhin Thanawala Assoaated Press

NAPA, Calif — A powerful earthquake that struck the heart of California's wine country caught many people sound asleep, sending dressers, m irrorsand pictures crashing down around them and toppling wine bottles in vineyards around the region.

Scores were injured as the temblor knocked out power to thousands, caused gas and water lines to rupture, sparked fires and buckled roa(ls.

The magnitude 6.0-quake struck at 3:20 a.m. PDT Sunday near the city of Napa, an oasis of Victorian-era buildings nestled in the vineyardstudded hills of Northern California. The fires also flared in a mobile home park where four homes were destroyed and two others were

damaged,offi cialssaid.

By middaySunday,thefi res were out and power was starting to be restored, said Mark Ghilarducci, director of the California Governor's Office of Emergency Services. ''While it was bad, it wasn't as badasitcould be,and it was verymanageable from a regional perspective," Ghilarducci said.

The quake struck about six miles south of Napa and lasted 10 to 20 seconds depending on proximity to the epicenter,according to the U.S. Geological Survey. It was the largest to shake the San Francisco BayArea since the magnitude-6.9 Loma Prieta quake struck in 1989, collapsing part of the Bay Bridge roadway and killing more than 60 people, most when an Oakland freeway fell.

It was felt widely throughout the region, fi'om more

than 200 miles south of Napa and as far east as the Nevada border.

For many, the quake struck at theworst tim epossible, rousing them in the middle of the night and sending them fumblingin darkness to take cover and find loved ones. A number of the injuries were caused by people stepping on broken glass, falling down or being hit by furniture.

The quake's timing was also

badforN apaValley'sfam ed vineyards, where winemakers w erejustgettingready toharvest the 2014 crop. The quake brokethousands ofbottlesof wine and toppled barrels.

Omar Rodriguez, 23, of Napa, was treated for a gash on his forehead in one of the triage tents outside a hospital that handled the victims. cwe woke up to the earthquake and I thought I was dreaming because I fell off my

bed, you know, it was all dark, and I justgot back up. She noticed it was all bleeding," he said, referring to his girifriend.

Officiais were still assessing the damage late Sunday in hopesofgettinga cost estimate they could submit for possible federal assistance.

The initial assessment found that dozens ofhomes and buildings in the region were unsafe to occupy, including a historic Napa County courthouse, where a 10-foot wide hole opened a view of the officesinside.

Queen of the Valley Medical Center in Napa reported treating 172 people in the emergency room, although hospital officials could not say how many of them were there for injuries suffered in the quake and how many for more routine injuries and illnesses, hospital CEO Walt Mickens said.

Editorial from The (Bend) Bulletin:

Two polls released this week appear to conflict sharply about public support for the Common Core State Standards, with one study finding 33 percent support while another reported 53 percent.

Scratch the surface, though, and it's easy to see a difference: It's in the way the questions were asked.

The Phi Delta Kappa/Gallup poll found 33 percent in favor when it asked, 'Do you favor or oppose having the teachers in your community use the Common Core State Standards to guide what they teach?"

As noted by several analyses, this version hints at a well-known point of opposition to Common Core, namely the worry that it will take away teacher autonomy and limit how they teach.

The 53 percent approval came when Education Next asked this longer version: "As you may know, in the last few years states have been deciding whether or not to use the Common Core, which are standards for reading and math that are the same across the states. In the states that have these standards, they will be used to hold public schools accountable for their performance. Do you support or oppose the use of the Common Core standards in your state?"

This question, by making reference to states' decision-making, counters the criticism that the standards are imposed by the federal government.

Mentioning accountability touches on something the public generally favors.

Support in the Education Next poll went even higher, to 68 percent, when respondents were asked that same question without the words "Common Core." Clearly those words have a negative association.

There's no suggestion here of intentional effort to skew the results. But it's a potent reminder of the power of words and the need to look below the surface of studies, surveys and their findings.

Such caution is hardly a new idea, but its importance is growing along with the flood of data in our world and the increasing effort to find and apply"best practices," especially in education and medicine.

erace ivi ean A poll and a set of charts both say something important about the situation in Ferguson and around the country. The poll shows the divide between black and white reaction to the shooting, and the charts map the different worlds most white and black Americans inhabit.

I wrote something about Ferguson last week and didn't think I'd be doing it again so soon, but the ongoing protests and the clumsy official handling of the protests keep bothering me. And more than that, what Ferguson says about race in America keeps clawing at my thoughts.

That's not true for everyone, and the pollcaptures a dividethatisboth political and racial in who finds broader significance in the events in Missouri.

It's the Pew Research poll that came out Monday. In it, 80 percent of black peoplesaid thecaseraisesim portant issues about race. Thirty-seven percent of whitepeople surveyed agreed,but47 percentsaid racehasbeen getting too much attention.

The responses broke along political as well as racial lines, but then politics follows clear racial lines. So you won't be surprised that while 68 percent of Democrats thought the shooting raises important racial issues, only 22 percent of Republicans thought so.

How people view thecaseaffects whether they see a need to address underlying causes and what those causes might be. If the shooting of Michael Brown was only an isolated interaction between apolice offi cer and a young

JERRY LARGE man he might have suspected of doing something wrong, then that's pretty much the end of the story. The protests and news coverage seem misguided and excessive.

But there is a pattern of white police officers shooting and killing black men that goes beyond chance. The statistics on police stops in that area and many other cities show patterns that go not only beyond chance, but even beyond what would seem to be legitimate law-enforcement needs, as when the numbers show blacks and Latinos are stoppedathigher rates,butarefarless likely to be found with contraband, for instance, than white people who are stopped.

Police seem to bemore accurate in judging which white people to stop.

Those disparities often occur with police departments that don't look like the communities they are policing. Nothing says police and communities have to be exactly the same complexion or ethnicity, but when they aren't even close, that raises questions. They were far from being matched in Ferguson.

W hat fla red up in Ferguson are pressures that are present beneath the surface in much of the U.S. Police-community interactions that go wrong are dramatic, but the pressure comes from disparities in multiple areas oflife.

The New York Times has a feature called The Upshot, and last week it

v i o ence included charts that measure how well white and black Americans are doing in a number of key economic categories.

What the charts show is that we haven't been making progress on closing gapsfora long time. In some cases, we are moving backward, and the recession took a hammer to many of the gains black Americans had made since the civil-rights legislation of the 1960s.

H ere are some ofthefacts.

In 1972, thejoblessrate among African Americans was 2.04 times that among whites. In 2013, it was 2.02. And black unemployment rates are higher regardlessofeducation.

Black people are underrepresented in high-income fields and overrepresented in low-paying jobs. The pay gap between black and white Americans has grown since 1980 and the wealth gap is much wider than the pay gap and growing.

There was a short window after civil-rights legislation in which black Americans made huge strides in education, employment and other areas.

The window was closed by economic downturn, the racist war on drugs that further poisoned relationships between the police and the communities where they work, and the withdrawal of political support for advancing equality.

Ferguson brings all of that to mind for me, but apparently not for everyone, and the lines continue to diverge.

That's why it's welcome news when a ranch firefighter crew plays an integral role in saving a town. Sure, there's not much to Imnaha. Just a store, a school and a smattering ofhomes. But when the Fence Creek Ranch crew, from five miles north of town, heard a wildfire was

Of course, not all ranches have this level of firefighting capability. But as this, one of the worst wildfire seasons in recent history, flares on, it is important we remain vigilant — and honor the vast crews of firefighters dispatched throughout the West to contain the damage.

Firefighters can help contain and, in time, stop a wildfire. But people who own property in the forest can help prevent it in the first place. They can clear out defensible space around their homes and outbuildings to make a successful fire fight more possible.

Wildfire will always be a clear and present danger in Northeast Oregon's long, long, long summers. The timely response of crews like those of the Fence CreekRanch and wildland fi refighters on the ground and in the air, and their many hours working in dangerous conditions, can produce heroic results.

Japan tops Nevada for

third place SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. (AP) —Takuma Takahashi struck out 11 and homered to help Japan silence Las Vegas' hot bats and win 5-0 in the Little League World Series' third-place game Sunday.

Takahashi (2-0) never allowed a runner past first base and Las Vegas was held to three hits after scoring 38 runs in four games.

Ren Takeuchi homered right after Takahashi did in the fourth, and Japan tacked on another two runs in the bottom of the fifth before Takahashi struck out the side in the sixth to end it.

Sounders defeat

Timbers, 4-2

PORTLAND (AP)Obafemi Martins didn't have an encore backflip for his second goal against the Timbers, partly because it surprised him.

Martins' goals, along with an assist on another from Clint Dempsey, led the Seattle Sounders to a 4-2 victory Sunday over Portland in a Cascadia Cup rivalry match.

Martins beatTimbers goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts in the 18th minute before adding another goal in the 76th.

With just nine games left, the loss also hurts Portland's bid to return to the MLS playoffs after advancing to the Western Conference finals last year. The Timbers play the Whitecaps next weekend in British Columbia.

"He jumpedoverthedefender and high-pointed the ball. It was one of the nicest catches I've seen amund here in a long time."

The Mountie defense remained stout, forcing a punt, and Eastern grinded out a long drive on the ground, capping it with a 1-yard rush by Bartlow for a touchdown for the 45-27 lead.

"I thought our team was in great physical condition," Camp said.

"Menlo had some guys that were on the field throwing up, while our guys were ready to go. I thought our camp created opportunities in the fourth quarter to wear them down."

AP Sports Wr ter

SEATTLE — Seattle's defenseis expected tobe among the best in the NFL again. If Russell Wilson and the Seahawks' offense can play this well in the regular season, look out.

It's still just the preseason, but for the second straight week Wilson and the Seahawks weren't stopped.

Wilson threw for two touchdowns and ran for another score, helping the Seahawks rout the Chicago Bears 34-6 on Friday night.

The third preseason game w as especiall y important for the Seahawks, who have just a week between their exhibition finale at Oakland and the season opener on Sept.

"The entire offensive group is just executing at a good clip right now," Carroll said."Russell is really committed to what is happening.

second halfbefore Hauschka's 53-yard attempt clanged ofF the left upright.

W ilson completed 15 of 20 passes for 202 yards, includingscoring tosses of 12 yards to Jermaine Kearse and 7 yards to Christine Michael. He found Percy Harvin and Kearse four times and spread passes to sevenreceivers in the first half. Wilson also had a 7-yard touchdown run.

"I thought the way that we played tonight was exceptional," Wilson said.'We were in a rhythm. We were great on third downs. We were great in the red zone.

We're really starting to put things together."

Marshawn Lynch got his first taste ofthepreseason withthree carriesfor 16 yards and capped Seattle's opening drive with a 7-yard TD run before putting on basketball shoes and a baseball hat.

A week after rolling up 260 yards of ofFense and 24 points in the first half against San Diego, the Seahawks had 250 yards and 31 points versus the Bears.

Seattleconverted allseven third-down opportunities in the first half.

On special teams, Harvin returned the opening kickofF 46 yards, and the only griefwas reserved forEarl Thomas who was caught

by the punter on a 59-yard return that nearly broke for another Seattle touchdown.

"I was surprised he got tackled," Wilson said."I'm going to pick on him tomorrow."

Along with Lynch getting his first real playing time of the preseason, Seattle saw center Max Unger, left tackle Russell Okung, safety Kam Chancellor and linebacker Malcolm Smith make their preseason debuts. The four mostly just played the first quarter.

"It's still just the preseason," Thomas said.'We don't know if we got their best shot. You just try to stay low keyand humble about it."

Chicago quarterback Jay Cutler played the entire first half and appeared to throw a 23-yard touchdown pass to Martellus Bennett late in the second quarter only to have Bennett ruled down at the 1 on review. Two plays later, after an ofFensivepass interference call on Brandon Marshall wiped out another touchdown, Cutler was interceptedatthegoalline by Jeremy Lane.

Cutler finished 12 of 20 for 157 yards, and Alshon Jeffery and Marshall had four receptions. But the Bears' run game was again absent with just 21 yards on six carries in the first half.

Rodriguez gave Kansas City the lead in the 63rd minute. She received a through ball from Holiday and took one touch to elude Portland goalkeeper Nadine Angerer.

It can change one's attitude about how alone you are to one of looking forward with incentive to do the things that you should have been doing but just didn't have the will with which to work.

In July, my youngest son, his wife, and two children were in La Grande.

They couldn't stay long, but they brought me huckleberries from our mountains, tomatoes and strawberries from their own garden in the Willamette Valley, and time to spend visitingand going over some needed future business concerns of my own.

Combining your favorite foods is a sure recipe for success. Zucchini Julienne combines thin strings of sliced zucchini with tomatoes, spring onions, broccoli and herbs.

By Karen Kain ForyyesCom News Service

I know what you are thinking ... more zucchini recipes. How could I? Just the other day my husband was threatened with violence after he offered one ofhis zucchinis to a neighbor.

I am sharing these two recipes because they may be my best yet. If you love pasta, but shy away from it due to the gluten or carbs, I suggest that you julienne your zucchini and use it as a pasta substitute.

I admit finding a julienne slicer was a bit tricky. I first researched online what a julienne slicer was and then searched how to julienne zucchini, because I was in the dark.

Thanks to my sweet neighbor, I am able to borrow one until my slicer comes in the mail.

But I promise you itis well worth it.

I love veggies and enjoy cooking meals without meat, but my husband usually prefers more hearty meals. I was pleasantly surprised when he fully enjoyed the Zucchini Julienne recipe and of course he loved the meatball dish. Both dishes are equally as satisfying. As always I encourage you to be playful with the vegetables you add. I cook with my favorite foods and that usually guaranteesa greatmeal.

Dear Anna: If you're a fan of olives and garlic, this is a meal for you. A whole chicken is brined in a flavorful marinade, then spatchcocked, stuffed with a bold filling of olivesand roasted garlic,and slowly cooked over low heat to keep the meat moist and tender.

The chicken is garnished with garlic oil and tender slices of Serrano ham in the last few minutes of cooking.

ting some of the very nice leftoverlastyear' sbark on top of it when we discovered it behind the garage. I sure know now that not all bark mulch is created equal. I was having a hard time later findingmore bark mulch so went to EONL (Eastern Oregon Nursery and Landscaping) nursery and they had the most amazing very small bark that they loaded into my husband's old trashhauler truck. It is a little larger than what I normally use but could be tilled into the soil anyway if we choose.

I love it and will go there first next year.

I noticed the other day thatthat particularbark is gone,but thereis apileof dark mulch that could still be used. The great thing about bark mulch is it works into the soil and makes it

Olive Chicken Brined chicken, drained and patted dry Stuffing Few sprigs fresh rosemary Few sprigs fresh thyme Garlic oil 2 to 3 thin slices Serrano ham

sprigs over the chicken.

Place the chicken in the oven and slowly cook until it reaches an interior temperature of 155 to 160 degrees when measured with an instant-read thermometer inserted in the deepest part of the thigh. This will take about 2 hours and 30 minutes.

Remove the chicken from the oven and increase the oven temperature to 450 degrees.

Remove the herbs from the top of the chicken and brush the chicken generously with the garlic oil.

Place the chicken back in the oven (the oven may not have yet reached 450 degrees, which is fine) and continue to cook until the skin is nicely crisped and lightly browned, 5 to 7 minutes, and the internal temperature is 165 degrees.

The last few minutes, drape the Serrano ham over the chicken to crisp Remove from heat, and serve the chicken hot.

Heat the oven to 250 degrees.

Prepare the chicken: Trim any excess fat and skin from the chicken. Using a pair of kitchen shears, cut the spine out of the back of the chicken.

Open the chicken like a book and lay it flat over a cutting board, skin-side down.

Spread the stuffing over the inside of the flattened chicken.

Place a sheet of foil over the stuffing, gently pressing it along the sides of the chicken; this will hold the stuffing in as the chicken is flipped over.

Invert a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet over the chicken. Lift up the cutting board and baking sheet, "sandwiching" the chicken, and carefully flip the chicken over so it is resting on the baking sheet, skin-side up.

Place the rosemary and thyme

betterand better.Thatis why it is an every year application at our place.

Yes, I have to hire help to do some of the weeding and all of the bark. My intense allergies don't like bark, but I manage once someone else has put it down.

Weeds aresometimes a hands-and-knees business so for $9 an hour I have a boy come help me once in a while. It is hard to teach someone else which are weeds and which are flowers since I do have seeded flowers that come up, too.

I once heard that the only way to be sure, is to pull everything and the ones that come back are weeds!

At our son's home in Shel-

so theywatered itand fertilized it. I sent a picture of it to my contact cousin and he wrote back immediately and said"getrid ofthatnow — it is a very poisonous nightshade."

I won't even mentionmy neighbor who watered and took care of a strangebiggreen plant this summer, until I had to give him the sad news that is a weed. Yep, won't mention it at all.

See younext time when we again meet in the yard and talk about something. I'd hate to think all my meager bits of wisdom have been used in just three columns.

NAPA, Calif.— The largest earthquake to hit the San Francisco Bay Area in 25 years sent scores of people to hospitals, ignited fires, damaged multiple historic buildings and knocked out power to tens of thousands in California's wine country on Sunday.

The 6.0-magnitude earthquake that struck at 3:20 a.m. about 6 miles from the city of Napa ruptured water mains and gas lines, left two adults and a child critically injured, upended bottles and casks at some of Napa Valley's famed wineries and sent residents running out of their homes in the darkness.

Dazed resi dents toofearful of aft ershocks to goback to bed wandered at dawn through Napa's historic downtown, where the quake had shorn a 10-foot chunk ofbricksand concrete from the corner of an old county courthouse. Bolder-sized pieces of rubble littered the lawn and street in front of the building and the hole left behind allowed a view of the offices inside.

College student Eduardo Rivera, 20, said the home he shares with six relatives shook so violently that he kept getting knocked back into his bed as he tried to flee. ''When I woke up, my mom was screaming, and the sound from the earthquake was greater than my mom's screams," Rivera said.

While inspecting the shattered glass at her husband's storefront office in downtown Napa, Chris Malloy,
