A special good day to Herald subscriber Patricia Huey of Baker City.

Oregon, 5A PORTLAND (AP)The state of Oregon has agreed to pay $15 million to settle a federal lawsuit filed on behalf of nine children abused by a Salem foster parent. The payout is a record for wrongdoing by an Oregon agency.

Attorney Steven Rizzo filed the suit against the Oregon Department of Human Services on behalf of infants and toddlers ranging in age from 2 days to 3 years, reportedThe Oregonian (http://goo.gl/iqjkPU ). It claims department employees ignored signs of abuse by former foster parent 31-year-old James Earl Mooney, who is serving a 50-year prison sentence.

A Christmas gift for drivers

This painting adorns the wall of a church in Bethlehem.

llacoby©bakercityherald.com

When dusk falls on this holiest of nights on the Christian calendar, Denise Ransom's memories will carry her haifway across the world from her Baker County home.

She will remember the day this past April when she and her husband, Cal, stood where the story of Christmas truly began.

They were outside Bethlehem.

They looked across the fields where shepherds tended their flocks on the night a baby was born in a stable, and was laid in a manger by his mother, Mary.

The visit to Bethlehem was among many highlights of the 10-day trip the Ransoms, who live near Richland, made to the Holy Land.

"It was wonderful to be able to walk where Jesus walked," Denise said on Tuesday."It was the trip of a lifetime."

Every Christmas will be

able to walk where Jesus

walked. It was the trip fo a lifetime."

Santa might want to augment his eight reindeer with a V-8 engine.

The jolly old elfs fuel bill — at least for the American segment ofhis overnight runwould be a bargain.

Gasoline prices in the U.S. haven't been this low during the Christmas season since

different, she said, now that she has visited Jesus' birthplace.

'That gave me a thrill," she said."It was a special time."

The Ransoms will give a PowerPoint presentation of their trip on Sunday, Jan. 3 at 1 p.m. at the Keating Fire Hall, 26488 Keating Grange Lane.

Refreshments will be provided. Donations will be accepted and will help Keating Cub Scouts attend day camp.

The Ransoms' memorable tripactually started ata wedding they attended more than two years ago in Montana.

The couple got to talking with a woman who is a friend of the bride.

The conversation veered into travel, and the woman told the Ransoms that she arranges two tourseach year to Israel.

The Ransoms were intrigued.

But they couldn't schedule the trip until this past April.

Denise said they traveled with about 10 other people, most of them from Montana and all of whom, like the Ransoms, are Christians.

The group started its tour in Tel Aviv, Israel.

At the Baker Heritage Museum, that

object is a small, gold-tinted compact that once held Odo-ro-no, the first antiperspirant.

This item and the story behind it will be featured on"Mysteries at the Museum" at 9 p.m. Friday, Dec. 25, on the Travel Channel.

Christmas is for the dogs.

Atleastitis as far asmany of their owners in America are concerned.

According to a pollof3,000 dog owners by Big Heart Pet Brands, Americans lead the world when it comes to giving man's best friend gifts for the

holiday.

When it comes to what kind of giks to give to your dog, owners should keep their dog's health in mind.

Baker Veterinary Hospital Veterinarian Brett Hamilton said giving your dog gifts is a great idea.

"It makes them a part of our life, a part of our family," he said.

"People enjoy it. Just make sure itdoessomething good forthe

dog.

Hamilton said to keep your dog's health in mind when choosing giks.

"If they are treats, I would tell people to make sure they are consistent with what their dog's diet should be," he said."Just because it's Christmas doesn't mean you should give them a lot of fat or other iunhealthyl things."

Hamilton explained that with dog treats "you get what you pay for."

He said some ofthelowercost treatsare in effectdogjunk food, with lots of salt and fat, which is just as unhealthy for dogs as it is for people.

Hamilton also recommends giving gifts that help dogs participate in activities.

"Encourage healthy exercise," he said."Obviously we want to avoid itoysl that big chunks are goingtocome offoforthey'regoing to swallow that are dangerous.

The clinic's receptionist, Jessie Parries, agreesthatgiftsfordogs

shouldbe exercise-oriented.

Her furry family members include four miniature Australian shepherds.

Parries gives them all presents every year and agrees with Hamilton that the gifts should promote health and activity.

"They love to play fetch and herd chickens," she said."Balls and tennis balls are always a goodchoice.Ballthrowers are great because your hands don't getallcovered with slobber."

Parriesalso said her dogslove tug-of-war toys.

She said it's important to notoverfeed your dogs edible presents.

The study found that 71 percent of U.S. dog owners will give their canine family members a gift this Christmas.

On average, Americans spent

Dog owners don't just buy their furry kids presents. They include them in the holiday festivities in many ways.

Forty-eight percent of respondents said they hang a stocking fortheirdog,43 percent include their dog in family photos for holiday cards they send, 32 percentpost a photosoftheir canine with a holiday message on social media, 29percent dress their dog up in a holiday themed outfit and 22 percent make or buy dogthemed holiday decorations.

Robber hides behind Christmas tree BEND iAPl — The FBI says a 28-year-old man facesfederaland state charges afterherobbed a credit union in Bend, then went on a shopping spree that included buying a Christmas tree he later used to try and hide from police.

The Oregonian reports 4ttp//bit.ly/10MNrynl that the FBI says Brett Gillispie-Comstock went into a Selco Community Credit Union twice on Dec. 16 before hewalked to a teller,told her hewa sready toopen an account and handed her anote demand-

ing $5,000.

He left with $1,373 in an envelope. The newspaper reports that Bend police officers found GillispieComstock nearby about 40 minutes after the robbery and arrested him.

Authorities say Gillespie-Comstock told investigators that he and his mother had lost $400 gambling and that they needed money for rent, Christmas presents and a Christmas tree.

The Oregonian reports that authorities say he used some of the money to buy a Christmas tree.

The FBI says he had been trying to use the tree to hide his face when police stopped him.

Fired worker gets $12,000 giR PORTLAND iAPl — A$12,000gik fiom an anonymous donor has made the holidays easier for a Portland family whose father lost ajob after a news article descriM his challenges as a low-wage worker.

The Oregonian reports thttp//bit.ly/22q0bEP it confirmed the donation; it was made on Tuesday via an online fund setup for Keith Fons, his fiancee and three children.

The donor told the newspaper she feltinspired by how much Fons does to take care ofhis family and outraged that he was fired.

Fons'story ofliving on $11.50 an hour was featmed on thenewspaper'sfiontpagein November.The 35-year-old father worked 60 to 80 hours everyweek attwo Subway shops to m ake ends meet. Hemanaged one shop and worked the graveyard shik at another.

His fianoee, who has multiple sclerosis, isn't able to work. She ~eives a small disability check every month that covers some costs.

As aresult of the arlide, Fons was fired fiom his overnight shift; he still works at the other shop. That meant losing $1,400 to $2,000 a month in income.

Fons has worked for Subway for nearly 13 years.

Despite the long hours, he said he loved working for Subway and doing customer service. The company dedined to comment on whyone ofhis jobs was cut.

Although Fons worked up to 80 hours every week, he bel ieved hedid notaccrueovertime because the stores were separate entities. State labor regulators said thatis correctif the companies are trulydistinct.

Hundreds of people have since sent money and gifts like coats and shoes to help the family.

BAKER CITY HERALD —3A

armersas ownai sic eave awa ectsniece-ratewor ers • It's not clear how the law, which takes eA'ect Jan. 1, aA'ects fruit pickers and some others SALEM iAPl — Many farmers in Oregon still have questions about new rules that will require them to provideemployees with paid sick leave starting Jan. 1.

Lawmakers passed a bill earlier this year requiring employers with 10 or more w orkers to offer thepaid sick leave, reported The Capital

Press 4ttp://bit.ly/1ThQJxa l. But farmers aren't sure how that will work with piece-rate workers, like fiuit pickers, who are compensated based on the amount they harvest, according to the Oregon Farm Bureau.

The state's Bureau of

Labor and Industries said piece-rate workers should be compensatedat"the regular rate of pay" or, if no such rate was set, at minimum wage. The problem is that the regulations don't explain how tocalculatethe"regular rateofpay,"according to OFB public policy director Jenny Dresler. ''We needed a clarification and we didn't get it," Dresler said.'We just don't know."

Would thenumber be based on the weekly average oftheemployee'spiece-rate earnings? Or the rate earned by other workers who are harvesting crops while the

employee is sick?

The labor bureau says it won't penalize employers while they are still learning the new rules, but Dresler pointed out that that doesn't stop individual workers from suing the employers.

Labor bureau spokesman Charlie Burr said the agency will offer a series oflow-cost seminars about paid sick leave.

Tim Bernasek, an attorney specializing in agricultural and labor issues, says he doesn't"have a very good answer about how to practically implement this rule." But Bernasek said he expects the

By Scott Hammers An audit of Oregon State Police crime labs points to a growingbacklogofevidence w aiting to be tested.

Auditors with the Oregon Secretary of State's office found it takes an average of 65 daysto complete testing on a submitted piece of evidence, while the number of cases in which it takes at least 30 days to complete testing has jumped 90 percent since 2005.

The backlog is in significant part due to the growth in the amount of evidence submittedtothelabsfor testing.

From 2005 to 2014, requests for testing have jumped 31 percent, while statImg levels at the labs has remained largely flat.

The labs perform a variety of testing services, including analyzing fingerprints lifted from crime scenes, DNA testingand teststoidentify suspected drugs and other substances.

The OSP's five crime labs in Bend, Clackamas, Central Point, Pendleton and Spring-

suspected of skimming drugs &om samples submitted for testing. Larsen was placed on paid leave this fall, and both labs have suspended drug testing. Larsen has not been charged with any crimes.

Woon said the audit was substantially complete beforethe allegations against Larsen came to light, and while the suspension of drug testing at the Bend and Pendleton labs is not a likely factor in the backlog identified through the audit, it's likely exacerbated the backlog in recent months.

The audit identifies a number of ways the crime labscouldbecome more efficient. The labs could do a betterjob transferringwork among themselves — currently, the labs primarily serve the agencies in their partsofthe state— and tracking the handling of individual pieces of evidence though the use of electronic note-taking.

"I would encourage ag employers to roll up their sleeves and make their best effort to make this work," said Bernasek.

There is also some confusion about the labor bureau's decisionto consider farmers and laborcontractors"joint employers" under the law.

The audit anticipates the labs' workload could increase further in the near future due totwo relatively recent developments.

EDITORIAL 'QgK'& A LAP&B bPPUf'

u reo our ores roa s OKcials from the Wallowa-Whitman National Forest think they'll need to maintain motorized vehicle accessto about 86 percent ofthe forest's 9,120 miles of road.

That's 14 percentage points below the "open forest" level of motorized access that many Baker County residents advocate for.

But the 86-percent figure is at least more realistic than the Wallowa-Whitman's quickly withdrawn proposal in 2012 to block motor vehicles from more than 3,000miles ofroads.

To be clear, the report the Wallowa-Whitman released last week has no immediate eA'ect on the public's access to roads.

The decision about restricting motor vehicles will come later — how much later we don't yet know.

Still and all, we don't believe the current road reportisirrelevant.

All else being equal, we expect that the more roads forest oKcials think they'll need to manage the Wallowa-Whitman, the more roads will remain open to the public for motorized use.

But there's a caveat.

When they unveiled road reports for the WallowaWhitman and the 16 other national forests in Oregon and Washington, Forest Service oKcials included a primer which noted that in the future the agency might retain motorized access to some roads for its employees, but prohibit the public from using motor vehicles on those roads.

We don't think that's necessary.

IfForest Service oKcials need to be able to drive on a road, they ought to aford the same privilege to the

public.

'stmass irit The Christmas lights began to twinkle, an otf-key, electronic version of"Deck the Halls" blared fiom the kitchen, and I was certain an intruder had blundered onto the premises.

An intruder infused with the holiday spirit, apparently.

But at 3 a.m., the possibility that we werebeing menaced by a ma niac who at least has an atImity for classic carols and multicolored bulbs eased my anxiety not a whit.

There's nothing holly or jolly abouta home invasion robbery. %hich phrase seems to have inserted itself into the jargon of American journalism, especially the televised variety, editors apparently having decided that"break in" isn't dramatic enough.)

GUEST EDITORIAL Editorial from The (Bend) Bulletin: Oregon's labor commissioner, Brad Avakian, was elected to oversee the Bureau of Labor and Industries. In that role, he enforces anti-discrimination laws regarding employment, housing, tradeschoolsand public accommodations 4usinesses generally open to the

public).

The latter is a role he clearly takes seriously. That said, one sometimes wonders just what his goal in fighting discrimination cases really is.

Some of the settlements he imposes have beensooutsized,itappearsAvakian is more interested in forcing some businesses to close than in sending a message that discrimination is wrong.

It shouldn't be that way.

Take the case of Chris Penner and the now-defunct P Club in Portland. In 2012,Penner told a group ofregulars, transgender members of the Rose City T-Girls, they were no longer welcome on Friday nights. The group had been goingtothe club foratleasttw oyears, but, according to The Oregonian, Penner said they were making other patrons uncomfortable and hurting his business in the process.

The group's lawyer called BOLI, and Avakian filed a discrimination complaint against Penner and the club and won. Penner was ordered to pay $400,000 to the T-Girls, and, months later, the state Department of Justice seized his bank account before his appealofthecase had been settled.iHe

lost).

Penner was forced to shut down.

Clearly Penner was wrong to give the T-Girls the boot. Oregon prohibits discrimination based on sexual orientation, among other things, and the T-Girls, assuming they were breaking no laws, had a right to be there if they wished.

We'll agree huge settlements like this one get the public's attention in ways smaller settlements might not. And if punishment is the goal, the P Club settlement surely achieved it. But does it fit the crime?

No. The $400,000 settlement was akin to using an elephant gun to kill an ant — way too big for the task at hand.

Avakian should have recognized that.

The sun had slunk below the Elkhorns but a single peak in the Wallowas stood tall enough to catch the day's last slanting ray.

It's Red Mountain. It happens to be the highest point in Baker County, at 9,555 feet.

It was a chilly day, as most days have been recently, and the darkening land had taken on that pinkblue hue which is unique to winter days when snow covers the ground.

The exception was Red Mountam's pinnacle. The sun didn't so much illuminate as inflame the peak's apex. The color was beyond my ability — and perhaps even Crayola's ability — to name.

"Ethereal" is too close to cliche formy taste,butthe adjectiveleapt into my mind as I gazed at what appeared more an apparition than solid sedimentary stone.

I can see the Wallowas fiom my driveway on something like 300 days each year.

Yet in that instant, as I shivered on the slippery sidewalk, the distinctive and usually familiar summit of Red Mountain seemed to me as distant and as foreign as the Himalayas, a place where perhaps no person has ever stood.

This was, as with all such scenes, brief. Probably it will never be duplicated.

But I glimpsed the momentary magnificence, and I consider myself the richer for the experience.

BAKER CITY HERALD — 5A

a e o a m i ion ose e awsui over os erci a use PORTLAND lAPl — The stateofOregon has agreed to pay $15 million to settle a federal lawsuit filed on behalf of nine children abused by a Salem foster parent. The payout is a record for wrongdoing by an Oregon agency.

The Oregonian lhttp J/goo. gViqjkPU l. It claims department employees ignored signs of abuse by former foster parent 31-year-old James

Earl Mooney, who is serving a 50-year prison sentence.

Court records show that Mooney pleaded guilty in 2012 to sodomy and sexual abuse charges. Rizzo said officials became aware of Mooney's crimes in 2011, when a 3-year-old said Mooney had sexually abused her.

"The settlement reflects the agency's accountability for failing to ensure the safety of these children in itscare,"the department's interim director, Clyde Saiki, said in a statement Monday.

Saiki said he is holding

an internal investigation to see how the agency missed signs of abuse is the Mooney case. He said Gov. Kate Brown has also ordered an inquiry into the agency and is "deeply concerned about what has been happening at

ness on their buttocks and behaviors like biting and pulling out hair.

Abengoa is now in talks with creditors to tryand avoid becoming thelargest bankruptcy ever recorded in Spain.

CRIBS Continued ~om Page1A When Ray Gibbons heard of the plan and the need for ensuring safe beds for newborns, he took the information to the Eastern Oregon Coordinated Care Organization.

Gibbons is the CEO of St. Alphonsus Medical Center in Baker City. And Baker County DistrictAttorney Matt Shirtciif serves as chairman of the Community Hospital Board.

Shirtclifl; whose duties include reviewing child deaths, wants to make parents aware ofthedangers ofco-sleeping and to help them avoid it by providinga saferplacefor their infants to sleep.

Gibbons said he got the message about the need for helping low-income families acquire cribs kom Shirtciif, as well as kom doctors at St. Luke's Clinic-Eastern Oregon Medical Associates, whose doctors deliver all babies born at the Baker City hospital, St. Alphonsus nurses and Dr. James Davis, who serves as Baker County's medical examiner.

He had originally planned to pitch a program forproviding cribs for mothers on the Oregon Health Plan in Baker Countytothe EOCCO Board after hearing kom the group.

But then he had second thoughts.

'They gave me an education and I looked at it and said'this isn't just a Baker issue — it's an Eastern Oregon issue,' " he said.

He took what he'd learned to the EOCCO Board, which he sits on as a representative of St. Alphonsus Health System.

Gibbons explained that baby deaths could be prevented if new parents were providedwith safersleeping tools and education. And he pointed out that women on the Oregon Health Plan, who are served by the EOCCO are a"significant part ofbirths every year" in the 12-county region. Those counties are

And safe sleep procedures are modeled for parents in the hospital where sleep sacks are used and the babies are placedon theirbacksin bassinets next to the mother when they are sleeping, but never in bed with Mom. The doctors at St. Luke's also counsel their expecting mothers not to take their babies to bed with them when they get them home.

Shirtclilf and Wade Swiger, the investigator in the district attorney's office, took the lead in establishing a Cribs for Kids partnership in the county.

"I want this to be something thatis long-term," Shirtciif said.'We need to stop this.

Police said several people were arrested at the airport, where officials saidaccesstooneoftwo terminals was blocked, causing backups on nearby roads. Some protesters took a light-rail train to the airport kom the Mall ofAmerica, where protestersstarted theBlack Lives Matter rally to bring attentiontoa recentpolice shooting of a black man in Minneapolis.

Gov. Mark Dayton said the moving protest was creating a"very, very dangerous situation," and he urgedprotestersto stop blocking access to part of the airport.

The governor questioned the need for such a demonstration, noting thatfederaland state investigati ons are ongoing into the death of Jamal Clark, who was shot

by Minneapolis police responding to an assault complaint. Dayton said releasingvideo ofthe officers' altercation with Clark could jeopardize the investigations.

About 500 protesters initially gathered at the Mall ofAmerica early Wednesday afternoon, then abruptly walked out while chanting,'What do we want? Justice! When do we want it? Now!" Protesters peacefully went to a nearby light-rail train station that allowed quick accessto theairporta few miles away.

POINSETTIA BOWL

Blazers, without Lillard, lose Fifth straight game

• Boise State ends the season with a 9-4 record after dominating Northern Illinois

By BemieWilson AP Sports Writer

SAN DIEGO — Northern Illinois won the coin toss and deferred, giving Boise State the ball first.

The Poinsettia Bowl was just beginning, yet it was essentially over.

Jeremy McNichols scored three touchdowns, the first one 58 seconds into the game, and finished with 189 total yards as Boise State embarrassed Northern Illinois 55-7 Wednesday.

The Broncos (9-4) took the opening kickofF and moved 75 yards in three plays for the fastest TD in the school's bowl history. After completions of 7 and 39 yards by Brett Rypien, McNichols ran 29 yards for a touchdown just 58 seconds in.

"It was huge. We always start fast," McNichols said.

"Even in practice, we come outfastand run a paced offense. That first touchdown, we practiced it all week and we hit it exactly like we were supposed to."

McNichols and the Broncos kept piling on as the running back trom Long Beach scored on each of the next two possessions, on a 4-yard pass from Brett Rypien and on a 1-yard run.

"It's fun for all of us," McNichols said.'When we score points, we get to throw deep, we run different formations, different shifts. It's hard for defenses to prepare for our ofFense.

It'sagreatjob by the coaches."

McNichols ran 19 times for93 yards and caught fi ve passes for 96 yards. The sophomore came in tied with Heisman Trophy winner Derrick Henry of Alabama

The Baker Heritage Museum has an extensive collection of shells and rocks.

MUSEUM Continued ~om Page1A He said storieschosen for the show go through many layers of approval.

"Only the best stories get on — they are the really cool stories," he said.

Each episode features six stories, which he said are "intentionally eclectic."

And just how did a New York-based show find a tiny item in Baker City's museum? ''We have a greatteam of researchers in New York who work a lot ofhours," he said. ''We'repretty good atfinding the interesting stories. And 50 percent of every show concentrates on smaller institutions that people may not have heard ofn He said the show focuses on "tip of the iceberg" stories.

"Small objects that take you on a big ride," he said.

He said many artifacts that spur stories for the show are archived and not out on display for the public.

A teen with an idea Baker Heritage Museum's segment on Friday's show is called"Sweet Smell of Success."

Museum assistant Kathleen Martin helps tell the story of Odo-ro-no.

Although the compact for Odo-ro-no is in Baker City, the backstory datesto theearly 1900s in Gncinnati, Ohio.

There, a teenage girl named Edna Murphey had discovered a way to keep sweat — and body odoraway.

Her father, a surgeon, had invented a formula to keep his hands sweat-free in the

operating room.

She found that it did the same for armpits — but she couldn't convince anyone to tryit.

She needed help marketing Odo-ro-no, and hired an advertising agency.

'The layer story is the story of advertising,"Wildman said.

Ads soon appeared in the "Ladies Home Journal" with the message"you may lose your chance at love"if you

ledtotheantiperspirant we use today.

And that history is contained in a tiny object at the Baker Heritage Museum.

"It's about the human side of objects,"Wildman said.

Some Americans include their dog when choosing and decorating their Christmas tree and will even take their pet toholiday events or parties.

Hamilton said it's OK to include your dog when celebrating, but to keep in mind that they should not be allowed to overindulge. In the midst of holiday gatherings, a dog owner may not be able to keep track of what their dog is doing.

"The danger there is that people are going to feed them stuff they shouldn't eat," he said. "Dogs are really accepting of handouts and some of those are not in their best interest. Be really careful because you probably can't monitor everythingthat people feed your dog."

Hamilton said his clinic is guaranteed to see sick dogs after Christmas that have eaten things that they should not have.

"Socialization in animals: I think it's really good for them to be around family and friends and get them used to differentpeople,"she said.

Parries said socialized dogs are more likely to be found if they are lost because they won't be scared of strangers that may facilitate their safe return to home.

American's top reason for giving gifts to their canine was to express their love for Fido. Other reasons included that it is fun, to make their furry friend feel included in the family as well as give their dog a moment of happiness and to bond with their dog.

by Stella Wilder FRIDAY, DECEMBER 25, 20)5 YOUR BIRTHDAY byStella Wilder Born today, you are used to being in the driver's seat, but when necessary you can surely relinquish control and let someoneelse get behind the wheel. This doesn't mean that you won't be paying attention at every moment to your progress and to how that driver is doing! There is a certain amount of mistrust that you harbor for almost everyone; you arefarmore comfortable when you are responsi ble for your own success without having to depend on others. It is not so much that you think you are better than anyone else, but rather you like knowing precisely whom to credit or whom to blame for succeedingor failingwhen you are in charge of your own destiny.

SATURDAY, DECEMBER26 CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) - Pride ofpurpose cansustain you through a difficult time as you continue doing something others have warned you against.

AQUARIUS (Jan.20-Feb. 18) —Youand a

colleague are likely to come up with an idea work to be of very high quality this time, as that serves both ofyou well in the future. A you're sure to be judged bysomeonewho can thirdparty can supportyourefforts. do you a good turn in the near future.

WEEKLY FISHING REPORT

AROUND OREGON

Dogmnsher reflectson career

GRANDE RONDE RIVER • The Grande Ronde had a bump in flows recently that should have brought some fresh steelhead up the river. Anglers are still finding success near Troy, though catch rates have slowed from the early season. Look for steelhead fishing to remain productive into the early spring when flows will make fishing difficult.

IMNAHA RIVER • Anglers are still reporting successful days on the Imnaha.

The recent bump in flows likely pulled a few fish up from the Snake River, which will be available to anglers. While catch rates have slowed, the Imnaha will likely produce for the rest of the season.

By Mark Morical VVescom News Serwce

• Anthony Lakes has received 40 percent more snow this season

s

f WALLOWA RIVER • Steelhead season is open. However, fishing doesn't normally pick up until later in the year and into the spring. Trout fishing has been good on the river with anglers finding some nice fish. Fall caddis and mayfly hatches have been good and fish seem to be keying in on them.

• The Wallowa is also a whitefish factory and can produce some large fish. Whitefish are native to Oregon and are a respected sportfish across the West. Whitefish can be great in the smoker and are a great way to keep kids interested while steelhead fishing.

WALLOWA LAKE • Some holdover trout wilI still be available for the hardy trout fishermen willing to brave the cold weather. Kokanee can also be caught by jigging deep during the winter months. The lake does not reliably freeze every year.

However, when the lake does freeze, ice fishing can produce good catch rates for trout and kokanee.

JOHN DAY RIVER • Steelhead fishing is fair with fish being caught on the lower river below Cottonwood Canyon State Park.

The ski lifts atAnthony Lakes Mountain Resort have been packed as a betterthan-expected season has brought people to the mountain. The resort has received 118 inches of snow this season, about 40 percent more than at this time last year.

By RonaldBond,Wescom News Service

recent stretch ofcloser to normal winter pre-cip-itation has had a positive impact on Anthony Lakes Mountain Resort, as the ski resort has already received118inches in the current ski season, 40 percent more than at this time in 2014. eWedefinitely saw one of the biggest openings ever.

People were very excited togetoutand slide on snow,"Anthony Lakes Marketing Director Chelsea McLagan said."The holiday break typically draws local family and friends, as well as out-of-area guests."

El ¹no patterns swirling in the South Pacific Ocean were giving indications of a dryer, warmer winter in northeast Oregon.

But additional systems have moved into the area, bringing rain and snow at levels closer to what is received annually.

"It's just a typical winter pattern," said Rachel Cobb, forecaster for the National Weather Service in Pendleton.eWinter is our wet season. It is typical during the winter to get more storms one after the other. It seems like it's a lot to us because we haven't had it in a few years, but it's not too unusual."

Cobb said the 1.49 inches La Grande received in November was actually 0.54 less than normal, but that the city is on pace to receive more than

average precipitation in December. The normal amount for the month is 1.66 inches, but La Grande has received 1.58 as of Wednesday.

The dryer conditions of the past few years have made what has come down so far in 2015 seem like a lot, when in fact it's what the region should be getting. ''We were in a very prolonged drought," Cobb saidoftherecent years.

But whether precipitation rates are starting to trend up or it is the result of previous down years, Anthony Lakes is being impacted for the better. The 118 inches that has come down at theresortasofW ednesday isabout 40percent more snow than it received at this time last winter, when 84.5 inches came down through Dec. 23, 2014.

Baker City resident Tim Collins has had a season pass to Anthony Lakes since 1980, and he likes how this season looks so far.

"It's nice to have the big early snow," he said.

ALFALFA — The ranch is a flurry of activity, and Rachael Scdoris is at the centerofit.

All at once, it seems, she is feeding some 130 dogsa soupy,reddish concoction of chicken and water by the bucket, loading heavy bags of dog food over her shoulder and into a shed, and conversing with her husband as he helps.

She is adept at multitasking, which should be no surprise for somebody who has raced four times in the Iditarod — the world's most famous sled dog race— and was considering racing the Iditarod and the Paralympics iin tandem cycling) both in 2016.

"I knew that wasn't really practical, and then he came along," Scdoris said."But it's OK, I like him better anyway."

"He" is her 13-month-old son, Julien, who is attached to his mom in a backpack, going everywhere she goes all around the ranch, the din ofbarking dogs never ceasing.

Julien does not seem to mind. At the moment he is sound asleep.

But his mom is busy at the sprawling Alfalfa ranch, some 2 miles from the nearest paved road amid the flat, sagebrushdottedterrain eastofBend.

Scdoris' last Iditarod — the annual 1,000-mile race acrossAlaska — was nearly seven years ago. But the dogs are still a crucial part ofher life, as she runs the Oregon Trail of Dreams sled dog tours at Mt. Bachelor ski area with her husband, Nick Salerno.

It has been more than 10 years since Scdoris, now 30, made worldwide headlines as the first legally blind musher to attempt the Iditarod. She scratched from that2005 race some 700 milesin dueto illness among her 16-dog team.

In 2006she completed therace,placing 57th among 72 finishing teams, and the 10-year anniversary ofher becoming the first legally blind musher to finish the Iditarod is just three months away. She skipped the Iditarod in 2007, and in 2008 she pulled out of the race 941 miles into the route.In her lastIditarod,in 2009, SeeIditarod IPage 2C

A cyclical warming trend of the Pacific Ocean off the Oregon coast will result in fewer and smaller chinook salmon in the state's rivers, including those of northeast Oregon, for the next couple of years.

A study by Oregon State University and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration found that chinook salmon eat more food when the ocean temperatures rise, but the fish are less healthy because of a lower quality diet available to them.

Long-term forecasts show that rain and snowfall amount for the rest of winter could potentially let up, with lessthan average precipitationand higher than average temperaturespredicted from January to March.

But given the results after a similar outlook a month ago, the winter ahead could be good for Anthony Lakes.

'This early snow is very helpful in generating optimism. But as we all know, weather changes quickly. We have a great base right now that will hold us through the season, no problem," McLagan sald.

SALMON Continued ~om Page1C and Richard D. Brodeurnoted that their findings contradicted earlier conclusions that juvenile salmon tend to be smaller when ocean temperatures are warmer than average because the fish eat less.

But Jim Ruzycki, program director for fish research in northeast Oregon, wasn't surprised by the study's results.

"In general, that is not brand new news. We've known for a long time that warm ocean conditions are poorforsalmon survival," Ruzycki said."The warm water provides poorer food resources for the fish and they grow more slowly and survive at a lower level."

Given that the ocean temperatures have trended higher and will continue to doso for a couple more years, fewer fish migrating from the Pacific Ocean to Oregon's rivers will live as a resultofpredation, and those that do make it back may be smaller. ''When they are first entering the ocean, that is when theyhave a hard time adapting," Ruzycki said. ''When they are small in the ocean, they are basically learning the trade, and that's where there is a higher mortality."

Those that do survive while at the ocean have a harder time finding food with the fats they need, including krill, because of the water affecting the food's availability and also affecting the fish themselves.

"The warmer water increasestheir metabol ism, so they have to eat more to maintain certain weights," Ruzycki said.

Ruzycki has seen this trend before. A similar warming trend dropped chinook numbers after a strong return in the early 2000s, but the numbers have trended upward in recent years.

With the return of the warmer water, he figures the returns to northeast Oregon rivers, including the Snake, Imnaha, Wallowa and Grande Ronde, will drop.

"Primarily we feel it by havingfewer fish return,"he

said."Sometimes it's the size of the fish as well. Mostly it's lower numbers."

But the downward movement shouldn't last.

Ruzycki said the warming trend in the temperatures is cyclical. So while it may be bad for a couple years, the numbers should turn around again.

"It could be trending in a bad direc tion for salmon, but it definitely goes in cycles," he said.

Besides the obvious fact that this is the season to throw diets out the window, there could be another reason why we tend to gain weight over the holidays. This time or yearwe tend to tradesleepfor alltheactivitiesthat require our wakefulness.

The connection between inadequate sleep and weight gain goes back to research that shows a consistent link between a low amount of sleep and a high amount ofbody weight. And get this, my fellow Americans who sleep less than any other industrialized country: Less than 8 hours aday ofsleep increases your likelihood to beoverweight.

Fine and good. But how do we actually accomplish more and better shut-eye?

• Feed your sleepiness. Say no thanks to cafeinated beverages iincluding energy drinks) as bedtime draws near, especially if you know you are sensitive to the stimulatingeffectsofthese products.

• Entice your sleep inducing hormones. Dim the Christmas lights and record the late-night running of"It's a Wonderful Life" to watch another time. Less exposure to light as the night closes in stimulates the production of melatonin, the sleepy time hormone.

•As bedtimeapproaches,forego the spiked eggnog for a nice cup of chamomile tea. Less fat and alcohol are more inviting to a sound night's sleep.

• Relax your brain. Get some exercise. Take some deep breaths as you pray and meditate on the season before you. Then put any anxious thoughts on the shelf.

AVOIDING OVERINDULGENCE DURING HOLIDAY MEALS

DIETICIANS WEIGH IN

The mere sight of a tasty holiday meal can stimulate the appetite and lead to overindulgence.

ByAllie Shah Star Tnbune (Minneapolis)

The holiday season brings with it heightened emotions and expectations — often accompanied by heightened readings on the scale.

Therearemore socialgatherings and specialfoodsthatare usually rich in fat and sugar.

There also can be higher stress levels, causing us to overconsume empty calories. And then there are the mind games we play with our waistlines, like the notion that we can take a furlough from good eating during the holidays.

"Somehow, eating at a party seems separate from your normal eating life," said Traci Mann, professorofpsychology atthe University of Minnesota and author of"Secrets From the Eating Lab." On average, people gain one pound between Thanksgiving and New Year's Day. But those who are already tipping the scale tend togain more — atleast5 pounds, studies show.

Those extra pounds often stay there— despitepromises to shed them comeJanuary — adding up afterseveralyearsto"creeping obesity," or long-term weight gam.

With the temptation to overindulge beckoning at every turn, many people turn to experts for help, said Darlene Kvist, a Twin Cities nutritionist and director of Nutrional Weight and Wellness. ''We always run our classes right through December, because thereare a lotofpeoplewho ...

once they start eating, they can't stop," she said.

No one is going all bah humbug on holiday treats. The focus is onnot overdoing itasopposed to not doing it at all. ''We definitely talk to clients about how to be mindful about what you're eating this time of the year," said Heidi Greenwaldt, a registered dietitian/nutritionist.

"It's not that you can't have some Christmas cookies at this time of year. It's just how much and how often."

Greenwaldt advises her clients to avoid focusing on foods when celebrating.

Instead,she suggests, focus on engaging in conversation with friends and family members.

"It's that whole mind-set where we live in a society where we don't want to feel like we're being deprived," she said.'We say,'I'm going to enjoy this,"I have to deal with in-laws' or'I've had a hard day of work.' " Having game a plan beforeyou hit the buffet line or dessert table at a party helps. ''When you go to parties, it's being mindful of what they're serving," she said."Look and see what they have first." That way you can pick and choose how

you spend your calories with an eye toward filling up on lowercalorie foods, like veggies and fruit, while saving room for an indulgent treat.

She also tells her clients that their goal should be to maintain their weight through December, not lose weight, which is difficult.

FORGET FASTING

Kvist said one strategy people often use that doesn't work is they don't eat all day and then go toa holiday party and gorge themselves.

"Then you'll get to the party and will be famished. Then you'll go for foods thatare high in fat and sugar," she said.

Insteadofstarving allday and overloading at night, she recommends eating smaller meals throughout the day and choosing the right foods.

It makes us want more."

Researchers ID gene in antibiotic-resistant bacteria A new gene that makes bacteria highly resistant to a last-resort class of antibiotics has been identified in China, and doctors are warning of the global implications.

"These genes could result in infections that are very difficult to treat in humans," explains Dr. Ritu Banerjee, a Mayo Clinic pediatric infectious diseases expert.

The gene,called MCR-1, makes bacteria resistant to a class of antibiotics known as polyrnyiin, which are antibiotics of last resort, used to fight superbugs. The discovery is described as "alarming" by scientists quoted in a Reuters

article. They call for urgent restrictions on the use of polyrnyiin, a class of antibiotics that includes the drug colistin, widely used in livestock farming.

"Our findings emphasize the urgent need for coordinated global action," researchers said in a published summary of their

'You say this is where I should eat and enjoy," she said."It's very easy to rationalizethat— this is the only time I'm going to get thiskind offood."

There'salsothe socialpressure that comes with eating in those settings.

"At family parties, people push you into eating things," she said.

Work parties bring their own pressures. You may put foods on your plate that your co-workers made because you don't want to insult them by not eating their food, Mann said.

"Then if you're ata party and you're feeling awkward socially, sometimes the easiest thing to do is to wander over to the buffetor the table with desserts on it, and have some," she added."It might be the safe and easy thing to do when you arrive at a party and don't see anyone you know."

research.

Banerjee agrees.

"The fact that it has just been found in China doesn't mean that we are safe from that here.

International travel and global food supply networks mean that resistant bacteria anywhere in the world can be spread to the United States."

An expert at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control, quoted on the website STAT, says if the resistance spreads, it will seriously limit the treatment options available to doctors facing antibioticresistant infections.

MARIC ONYOUR CALENDAR

Open swims at Baker pool BAKER CITY — Sam-0 Swim Center, 580 Baker St. in Baker City, will have special open swim times during the holiday break.

The pool will be open from 1 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. Dec. 26, then will have two open swim sessions per day Dec. 28-30 — from 1 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. to 8 p.m.

There will also be a session Jan. 2 from 1 p.m. to 3:30 p.m.

Cost per session is $3 for those younger than 18.

If you've hunted around for a diet plan in your effort to lose weight, chances are you've come across someone peddlingprotein powder.

"Four hours ofhunger control," boast SlimFast bottles.

"Our high-protein, low-calorie mix helps you lose weight," says Beachbody's website.

"For Increased Hunger Control and Energy" is the message on tubs of Herbalife protein powder.

Turns out, that can actually be true.

Replacing high-calorie meals with lowercalorie shakes does lead to weight loss, but here's the hitch: It probably won't last.

Protein shakes make weight loss relatively easy because they remove the work of planning nutritious meals and controlling portion sizes — that's where the real work comes in, said Alissa Rumsey, a registered dietitian in New York and spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. Sustainable weight loss rests on changing people's habits and the types of foods they choose to eat, she said.

"Are you going to drink these one or two shakes a day for the rest ofyour life?" Rumsey said.

Dietitians highlight a number ofholes in the promises made by protein powder manufacturers. Bottom line: Whenever possible, realfoodsarebetter,experts say. Notonlyis iteasy to get all the proteinaperson needs from food,realfoods offer nutrients besides protein and they don't contain the artificial sweeteners, additives and dyes that are common in protein powders.

'There is nothing magical in it that regularfood doesn'thave,"said Brad Haag, a personal trainer and USA Triathlon-certified running coach who founded Bend Fitness.

Workout window?

Athletes commonly drink protein shakes following workouts. Many of them subscribe to the idea of a 30-minute to one-hour"workout window," the time period following exercise during which a person must consume food to replenish their depleted muscles and preventtheirgainsfrom being lost.
