Good Day Wish To A Subscriber

A special good day to Herald subscribers Robert and Sha Brady of Baker City.

Outdoors, 1C Baker County's best-known canyon is Hells Canyon but to be geographically honest, the canyon isn't Baker County's to claim. Not alone, anyway. The deepest stretch of that famous canyon is in Wallowa County. But Baker County boasts other canyons that are (mostlyj within the county's borders, and the lower Powder River Canyon is an option for early-season hiking.

Oregon, 5A SALEM — Kate Brown became Oregon's governor with a pledge not to accept money from outside sources and to ensure anyone who pays her family and staff does not have business before the state of Oregon. Brown took the oath of office in a short ceremony at the state Capitol Wednesday. The Democrat, who was formerly the secretary of state, becomes the first openly bisexual governor in the nation. Brown replaces fellow Democrat John Kitzhaber, who was Oregon's longest-serving chief executive before his swift fall from grace in an ethics scandal that culminated with his announcement Feb. 13 that he'd step down.

Stacy Bingham, left, and her daughter, Lindsey, attend an eventWednesday honoring the Oregon DMV for encouraging people to register as organ donors. Lindsey had a heart transplant on Feb. 14, 2013. For the Baker City Herald

indsey Bingham giggles, jumping from foot to foot as she talks about the antics of her younger brother, Gage. Around her neck she wears a medallion engraved with "2.14.13" and "Brave." Without the event on that date, Lindsey wouldn't be here to talk about Gage. On Feb. 14, 2013, she underwent surgery to receive a new heart at Lucile Packard Children's Hospital in Palo Alto, Calif. A little more than six years before that, in August 2006, her older sister, Sierra, also received a new heart at the same hospital. Gage — the rambunctious 6-year-old — has a pacemaker and will one day need a new heart. The three Bingham children

were diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy. Their two siblings, Megan and Hunter, don't have the same condition. Now their parents, Stacy and JasonBingham, are facing another harsh reality — Sierra has coronary heart disease and this week she goes back on the transplantlistfora heart. She is 15. She will be listed as a 2 for urgency ila is the most urgent when the patient is in the hospital) and should be able to stay home and live her life until the call comeswhich doctors estimate will take atleasta year. When Lindsey's heart failed, she was put on a Berlin heart, an artificial support that helpedher heart pump. That enabledher to waitfora donor heart. Sierra's condition, with her donorheart,isdifferent— a Berlin heart is not an option.

''When they crash, they crash," Stacy says."There's no

back up." She said Sierra is fully involved in her medical condition — and knows what is coming. "She wants to know everything," Stacy said.

he Binghams have been forcedto learn about organ donation the hard way, and this week Stacy and Lindsey helped share their knowledge during an assembly at Baker

High School. Their talk was part of an eventhonoring the DMV and its 40-year partnership with Donate Life Northwest, which educatesresidents ofOregon and Washington about organ, eye and tissue donation and the Oregon or Washington Donor Registry.

Baker County SherifFs deputies planned to continue to search today for Logan Richard Handy, a 16-year-old Baker City boy who ran away from his home Wednesday morning Three deputies and six Handy members of the county's search and rescueteam were unable to fi nd Handy despite a day-long search Thursday, Sheriff Mitch Southwick said this morning. Police believe Handy might be a danger to himself, Southwick said. See Search IPage8A

Brian Ratliff, district wildlife biologist at the ODFW office in Baker City, also said that a group of three to four wolves ate, and probably killed, an adult cow elk around Feb. 16 near Durkee. ODFW officials don't know where the wolves came from or where they are now, and no one has reported seeing any wolves in either area, Ratliff said.

LA GRANDE — A 31-yearold Baker County man was sentenced by Union County Judge Russell West Thursday to 25 months in prison for dealing methamphetamine. That sentence is part of a multi-county plea agreement that will ultimately result in an 81-month sentence for Tom Carroll. A charge of unlawful delivery of methamphetamine stemmed from a Nov. 7, 2014, arrest at the Spruce Street Marketin La Grande when Carroll was arrested on a Baker County warrant for felon in possession of a firearm, according to a press re-

lease from the Union County District Attorney's 0$ce. After executing a search warrant on Carroll's vehicle and cellphone, authorities found he was in possession of a"substantial quantity of methamphetamine, a digital scale, $5,375 in cash and text messages arranging drug sales," the release states. Union County Senior Deputy District Attorney Christopher Storz, who prosecutedthe case,said the sentenceisgood notjustfor the county but for the region "Thepleaagreement Mr. Carroll accepted here is part of a three-county offer that will resolve not only his

This was difficult for her to do, but Bonnie was full of common sense and had no desire to injure someone while she was at the wheel. Her family moved around to various farms as she grew up. She therefore lived in Richland, Hermiston, Pendleton and Baker. Asked why they moved about she replied,"I guess it had to do with the water supply for farming."Although she was raised on homegrown food, Bonnie was a very picky eater with limited vegetables on her favorites list. She loved all fiuits and homemade bread, brown beans and canned her own jams and fiuits including ground cherries. Huckleberry picking was a new adventure when Bonnie marriedDon. She went annually thereafter for 61 years. She would pick until it was so dark she couldn't see her fingers any longer."Too tired" to go last summer, family brought home branches laden with berries and she picked one final time. She also loved tent camping and only gave that up last year as well. Annual family vacations usually lasted two weeks and included visits to out-of-town relatives and friends. She loved historical markers and would beg Don to stop at each one. He dubbed them her"hysterical markers" and "accidently" drove pastafew in theinterestofarriving at their destination in a timely manner. Bonnie was a lifetime member ofthe Seventh-Day Adventist Church. Her greatest joy was fellowshipping with members and studying her Bible. She also loved singing hymns.

Lohner said Padilla-Albrido is "a person ofinterest"in narcotics cases that Union County police have been investigating. The investigation that resulted in the two searches at the D Street home is ongoing, and additional arrests are likely, police said.

Ifyou decide thatyou want to be an organ donor, there are four ways to register. • Code yourdriver'slicense,perm itor identification card as a donor • In Oregon, anyone 13 years and older can sign up on the Donor Registry at www.donatelifenw.org • Requesta paperform at800-452-

Important Facts There is no added cost to the donor for organ, eye, and tissue donation for transplant. People of all ages and medical historiescan sign up tobepotentialdonors. Organ, eye, and tissue donation usually will not interfere with the timing of funeral services, and it will not prevent an open casket funeral. Organ donation is supported by all major religions. If you are under 18 years old, your family must sign a consent form for you to become a donor even if you have signed up on the Donor Registry or through DMV so a family discussion is imperative for your intentions to be known and honored.

He also sent a"cryptic" message to his girlfiiend and has closed his Facebook page, according to the sherifFs office. Southwick said the sherifFs office received reports Wednesday night from people who believed they saw Hardy earlier Wednesday near the railroad tracks in the Sutton Creek area, about five miles southeast of town near the landfill. Some of the people who called police said Handy was walking southeast. Based on that information, searchers focused on the area along old Highway 30 between Baker City and Huntington, Southwick said. On Thursday morning searchers found Handy's bicycle near the railroad tracks at Sutton Creek. Southwick said searchers on Thursday talked with several people who live along the lightly-traveled highway. None claimed to have seen Handy, or anyone resembling him, along the highway on Thursday. Handy did not have a cell phone with him, so police are not able to try to track his movements electronically, Southwick said. When a cell phone is turned on, even if it's not used it"pings" the nearest cell tower, which can allow police to get an idea of where the phone is, he said. Southwick said the sherifFs office has alerted Ontario Police that Handy might have been traveling in the direction of that town. Handy is 6-feet tall and weighs 160 pounds. He has brown hair and blue eyes. Anyone with information about Handy should call the sherifFs office at 541-523-6415.

She kept the animal for several years and had it bred by artificial insemination in June of 2012 and again in June of 2013, District Attorney Matt Shirtcliff told the jury last week. Bullington was convicted of two counts of unlawful use of a livestock animal, a Class A misdemeanor, for breeding the cow without the Fosters' permission, Shirtcliff said. The other two counts of unauthorized use of a livestock animal were based on Bullington withholding the cow and the calf it produced from the 2013 insemination without the Fosters' consent. Bullington was convicted of two counts of first-degree theft, Class C felonies, for "failing to make reasonable effortstorestore the cow and itscalftotheow ner,"Shirtcliff sard. The case was investigated by Baker County SherifFs deputies in late September 2013 and the cow and calf w ere sei zed atthattim e.

vo eon cou ars

The perennial, and so far futile, effort to add geographic flexibility to managing cougars in Oregon has returned to the state Legislature. This year's proposal is pretty much identical to the one that failed to gain traction in the Capitol in 2013. Actually there are multiple proposals — Senate

<C•

TIBN%%ENfgTQR@lBJII IglDA,RB?%An

bills 126 and 453,and House Bills2050 and 2181. The basic idea in each case, though, is the same: To give voters in each of Oregon's 36 counties the chance to allow hunters to use tracking dogs to hunt cougars. Voters statewide banned that practice when they passed Measure 18 in November 1994. And they rea5rmed that position by rejecting a measurein 1996 that would have repealed Measure

18. But in the 20 years since hunters have been precluded from using dogs, Oregon's estimated cougar population has risen from about 3,000 to about 6,000, according to the Oregon Department of Fish

and Wildlife. This increase has had disproportionate effects. The prevalence of cougars is oflittle consequence in Portland, yet it was the large number of voters in thatcit y that ensured Measure 18'spassage. In Baker County and much of the rest of rural Oregon, meanwhile, a majority of voters opposed the measure — 72 percent in Baker County. Yet these are the areas where the burgeoning cougar population had effects, such as contributing to a decline in deer and elk herds in some areas, and increasing predation on livestock. To be clear, the goal here is to not to legalize a cougar slaughter. Even if voters in some counties overturned Measure 18, the state would continue to set limits on the number of cougars that hunters can kill each year in each of the state's six zones. Cougars would continue to thrive. But at least their numbers might be pared a bit in counties where the problems are most acute.

Your views Wolves: Good for national parks, bad for livestock Twenty years after being reinstated in Yellowstone National Park, wolves are moving into Oregon. We are still trying to figure out if reintroducing w olvestothe Northwest isa good idea. Wolves are endangered. This allows them to repopulate what was once their vast hunting ground. The beautiful creatures have been settling in nicely in many of their previous homes. In Yellowstone, wolves naturally glide into the ecosystem. Now that the elk numbers have dropped to around 5,000-6,000 head, the increase in the wolf population has also begun to level off. Elk herds are now at healthy levels. With wolf threat imminent, only the strongsurvive.Wolves are obviously an integral part of a wild ecosystem. Unfortunately, outside national parks wolf numbers continue to rise, even though deer and elk numbers have dropped. So why does what works inside Yellowstone not work outside? It's actually a fairly simple answer: livestock. Sheep and cows are easy prey. While some studies show that onlysmallportions ofcattledeaths are predator-caused — mostly not wolves — a study done by Oregon State University revealed that when cows are exposedtowolfscent,a condition similar to PTSD occurs. Stress can cost a rancher $261 per head annually in weight loss and lower pregnancy rates.

Wolves may not kill as many livestock as otherpredators,buttheireffecton herd health will drive up production costs. Small ranchers risk going out of business, while large operations must increaseprices to coverthe added costs. When that happens, consumers see it atthe grocery store. In a natural environment wolves can match their numbers to the availability of game, while at the same time keeping the herds healthy. When it comes to an ecosystem where food supply is essentially unlimited, wolves cause majordamages, especially to producers' and consumers' pocket books. Repopulating the wolves in national parks is beneficial to the animals there; however, spreading thesecreatesto areas with livestock is detrimental to a very large community, which includes livestock, wild game

and people.

f ive'. "Saturday Night Live" is the greatest TV show in American history. I didn't know, until Sunday night, that I believed this. But then I watched NBC's 3V2-hour extravaganza commemorating the program's 40th anniversary, and was convinced of SNL's unique position. Actually I watched 2V2 hours of NBC's 3V2-hour extravaganza Sunday night, and the rest later in the week. The problem is the special started at 8 p.m. Most nights my eyes start drooping before 9 and my wife ends up nudging me and asking when did I learn toread with myeyes closed. I was eager to watch the SNL anniversary show, though, and I managed to hold out until 10:30 without resorting to the toothpick tactic from "A Clockwork Orange." But after I dozed off during a commercial, and then barely revived myself in time for the next segment,Igave itup as ahopeless cause to make it to the end in a single stint. Anyway I knew I could watch the other parts online whenever I wanted — and wherever, if I was willing to sacrifice some visual and sonic quality and use my phone rather than my TV as the platform. This was not possible during much of SNL's four-decade run.

JAYSON JACOBY If you missed the latest Coneheads sketch in 1977, for instance, because Kiss was playing Boise or Portland that night on the Love Gun tour, you might be out of luck. Unless you owned a VCR. And in 1977 you probably didn't. Although you probably had a turntable. The anniversary show included a few references to the leviathan technological leaps during SNL's lifespan — Tina Fey's generational dig at the"little dummies who are live-Tweeting this right now, instead of watching it" being the most clever. SNL is famous in part, of course, because of its longevity. Most TV shows lack durability, and even the better among themI'm thinking here of, say,"Seinfeld" and "Cheers" and "M.A.S.H."rarelylastforeven onedecade, much less four.

Obama needs to call out radical Islam for its actions There's a lot of empty talk about Islam. Who are the good Muslims and who are the extremists. According to the Koran, the holy book, Islam means "submission" not"peace." If you're not a Muslim you'rea pagan orinfideland are to be killed. That's what the book says. I understand that at times the Koran can be changed to please some new revelation, which makes one wonder about its facts. A reading of the Koran placed against the events of Muhammad's life indicates "revelation" changed according to circumstances of his life. An entire doctrine grew up around the radical change in his teaching. The doctrine of"abrogation" which means "annulment." It's simply a newer revelation from Allah that can cancel and replace an old one because the newer ones are better. Looks to me like the radical are closure toscripture than the good people. I also believe it is time for Obama to callthese so and act.Quitprotecting them, and putting down the Christians every change he gets. Lots of red flags coming out fo the White House.

Pop culture tends to be adisposable commodity, and SNL, it seems to me, has never aspired to be anything but a part of pop culture. And yet it has transcended that category anyway. SNL has created so many memorable characters and sketches and catchphrases over its 40-year run that it has insinuated itself into American culture, not merely the pop culture subdivision. America endures because its foundation, based on the principle that freedom is an ingredient as necessary to humans as oxygen, is as solid as bedrock. But we can also laugh at ourselves. Moreover, we can laugh at the people we elect to our highest office. That SNL, which has lampooned seven presidents, from Gerald Ford to Barack Obama, can thrive by striving to make one of the great symbolsofourrepubliclook stupid, reminds me that America's arteries are still flowing clear and strong. Even if I can't stay up late enough any more to watch. Although I do still own a VCR. Jayson Jacoby is editor of the Baker City Herald.

Brown took the oath of office in a short ceremony at the state Capitol Wednesday. The Democrat, who was formerly thesecretary ofstate,becomes the first openly bisexual governor in the nation. Brown replaces fellow Democrat John Kitzhaber, who was Oregon's longestservingchiefexecutivebefore his swik fall fiom grace in an ethics scandal that culminated with his announcement Friday that he'd step down. In a speech to the Legislature after her swearing-in, Brown praised Kitzhaber for his contributions but also said "we mustrestore the public's trust."

Meanwhile, Kitzhaber, in one ofhis final acts as governor, commuted the prison sentence of a younginmate who's serving a 12-year sentence for attempted murder and other charges. The commutation document doesn't reveal why Kitzhaber decided to release Sang Dao, 25, more than threeyears beforehisearliest possible release date. The Multnomah County District Attorney, whose office prosecuted Dao, supported the demency, noting that Dao had turned his life around and earned a bachelor's degree while locked up. Last summer Kitzhaber's fiancee, Cylvia Hayes, who's at the center of the ethics scandal that prompted the governor to step down, spoke

at a graduation ceremony for Dao and others at a youth correctional facility, according to a report in the Woodburn Independent. Hayesfaces allegationsthat she used her relationship to enrich herself. Kitzhaber, who didn't attend the inauguration, has denied wrongdoing and has consistently maintained that he and Hayes worked hard to avoid conflicts between her public and private roles. He did notimmediately respond to an email asking why he'd decided to commute Dao's sentence. Unlike most states, Oregon has no lieutenant governor. Under the state constitution, the secretary ofstate takes over if a governor steps down or dies. Brown, 54, was born in Spain, raised in Minnesota

SALEM iAPl — State economists are predicting that Oregon taxpayers will receive 'kicker" income tax rebates. The quarterly revenue forecast released Thursday projects nearly $350 million will be refunded to taxpayers after the two-year budget cycle ends in July. Oregon's 'kicker" law is triggered when tax collections exceedexpectations by atleast2 percent. When that occurs, the unanticipated revenue gets returned to taxpayers.

and came to Oregon to attend law school in Portland, the state's largest city, and established a family law practice before her first run for the Legislature. Brown addressed the scandal surrounding Kitzhaber after taking the oath of office, saying"Oregon has been in the national news for all the wrong reasons. That changes starting today." She called on lawmakers to pass"meaningful legislation" to strengthen the state ethics commission and require timely releaseofpublicrecords.She pledgednotto acceptoutside compensation while she's governor and said the members ofher household and her staff would not be allowed to seek compensation"for any work relatedto thebusinessofthe stateofOregon." "That simply will not happen," she said. Brown's term will last two years. The state constitution calls for a special election that will come in November 2016. She hasn't said whether she plans to run.

The Oregonian reports i http J/is.gd/JqdywL l that the vote came Wednesday after nearly three hours of testimony &om employees, contractors and union representatives. Mayor Charlie Hales and Portland Commissioner Dan Saltzman introduced the proposal to pay full-time city employees and contractors $15 an hour.

The remaining 157 are parking attendants, janitors or security workers who are full-time but paid by contractorsthatare subjecttothecity'sFairW age policy. Budget officials say the plan will cost at least $1.1 million per year. A bill introduced in the Legislature would increase Oregon's minimum wage, now$9.25 an hour, to $15 in several years.

The Department of Transportation said Wednesday it would begin a test July 1, signing up 5,000 volunteers to keep track of the miles they drive.

The argument is that cars have become much more fuel-efficient — some using batteries — and drivers are driving less. So, the officials say, gasoline tax revenue hasn't kept up with construction costs. After the Legislature rejected a tax on highly efficient vehicles, it authorized the test to begin this summer. The OreGO website is a means of getting information out to people who'd like to take the tax for a spin. They can't actually sign up until July.

Ap sports vvater

PORTLAND — Jerome Kersey, the versatile small forward who helped the Portland Trail Blazers reach two NBA Finals and won a title with the San Antonio Spurs in 1999, died Wednesday. He was 52. The state medical examiner says Kersey died from a blood clot that traveled from his left calf to his left lung. A team ambassador, Kersey appeared Tuesday with fellow former Blazers Terry Porter and Brian Grant at a Portland high school in celebration of Alrican American History Month. 'Today we lost an incredible person and one of the m ost beloved players to ever wear a Trail Blazers uniform," Blazers owner Paul Allen said in a statement."My thoughts and condolences are with the Kersey family. He will be missed by all of us. It's a terrible loss." Kersey averaged 10.3 points and 5.5 rebounds in 17 seasons in the NBA with Portland, Golden State, the Los Angeles Lakers, Seattle, San Antonio and Milwaukee. He helped the Blazers reach the NBA Finals in 1990 and 1992, playing alongside Porter, Clyde Drexler, Kevin Duckworth and Buck Williams. "He was the greatest guy,

the nicest friend, teammate and brother. He was loved by everyone. We will all miss him. He just cared so much," Drexler told Comcast SportsNet Northwest.'This is unbelievable." Kersey had his best season in 1987-88, averaging 19.2 points and 8.3 rebounds. Kersey played in 1,153 regular-season games, also averaging 1.9 assists and 1.2 steals. The former Longwood University star ranks second on Portland's careergames list with 831, third in minutes played at 21,400, second in rebounds with 5,078, third steals with 1,059, and fifth in points with 10,067. At 6-foot-7 and 215 pounds, "No Mercy" Kersey had a broad smile and a warm manner that made him a fan favorite. Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard posted to Twitter:"Spoke to him regularly about life and the ups and downs of a NBA season. Gone too soon, much love!" Others who posted their

Trail Blazers Make Major Trade DENVER — Just like that, Arron Afflalo's in the thick of a playoff chase again. Afflalo's second stint in Denver came to an endThursday, with the veteran guard going to the PortlandTrail Blazers in a five-player deal. The Nuggets also included backup forward Alonzo Gee in the trade. General manager Tim Connelly said that in return, Denver receivedThomas Robinson,Victor Claver,Will Barton and a lottery-protected first-round pick in 2016. Afflalo certainly landed in a good place — a Portland squad out to a big lead in the Northwest Division. "That's great for him," Nuggets coach Brian Shaw said before the team left for Milwaukee for their game Friday night. With Afflalo, the Blazers acquired a shooter who can come in off the bench to spell startersWesley Matthews and Nicolas Batum, Blazers coachTerry Stotts said. "He brings a lot of everything: He brings a toughness, a shot-making ability, he brings a defensive presence," Matthews said. "And hopefully a hunger." Afflalo is averaging 14.5 points this season, but has struggled at times with his shooting touch. He's hitting just under 43 percent from the floor, which would be his worst since his rookie season in 2007-08. — Pat Graham, APSports Writer

condolences included Kobe Bryant and Vince Carter. Kersey retired from basketball in 2001. He was an assistant coach with Milwaukee in 2004-05 under Porter. In addition to serving as a team ambassador, he appeared on Blazers' broadcastsforComcast SportsNet Northwest. At Longwood, a Division II school in Farmville, Virginia, Kersey averaged 17 points and 11.3. He was

a second-round pick by the Blazers in the 1984 draft. "The news is so sudden, and we're sure more details will be forthcoming," Blazers President Chris McGowan said."But it is indeed a sad day for our organization, the city of Portland and the NBA. Jerome will be remembered not only for his incredible contributions on the court, but his tremendous impact in our community."

Kitzhaber grants clemency to man By Jonathan J. Cooper Associated Press

SALEM — As one ofhis final acts in office, Oregon's outgoing governor, John Kitzhaber, commuted the prison sentence of a young inmate convicted of attempted murder. Sang Dao, 25, sentenced to more than 12 years in prison, will be released next month, at leastthree years early. It's not clear why Kitzhaber granted him clemency. The commutation document, obtained by The Associated Press, didn't stateareason,and the former governor didn't reply to an email seeking comment. Multnomah County District Attorney Rod Underhill, whose office prosecuted Dao, supported the clemency, noting that Dao was committed to education and that he took responsibility for his crime. Underhill wrote in a letter to Kitzhaber that Dao has taken "exceptional steps"to"improve himself and make amends to our community since his incarceration." The commutation was signed Tuesday, a day before Kitzhaber handed power to Kate Brown.

Utes clamp down,

hand OSU Beavers first home loss CORVALLIS iAPl — Utah coach Larry Krystkowiak said he told Oregon State coach Wayne Tinkle that they setthe game ofbasketballback a bitwith a defensive battle Thursday night. "We grinded and grinded.... It was kind of one of those heavyweight fights," he said. Dakarai Tucker scored 11 points as the No. 9 Utes beat the Beavers 47-37, handing Oregon State its first loss in 15 games at home this season. Delon Wright added nine points, nine rebounds and fiveassistsforthe Utes i21-4,11-2 Pac-12l. Malcom Duvivier scored 12 points for the Beavers

i16-10, 7-7l. Both teams scrambled and scrapped on defense, making for a low-scoring affair. Utah shot 42.5 percent for the game, while Oregon Stateshot 33.3 percent. "We told the guys it was going to be a backyard brawl. . They were physical, but our guys stayed toe-to-toe," Tinkle said. He wondered ifhis team was tiring late in the season, however. Only seven Oregon State players took the floor. The team has five walk-ons who joined the squad after an open-gym tryout in October. Seven minutes into the game, Utah was up by only 5-4. The Utes had five shots and four turnovers at that point, while the Beavers were shooting only 2-9. Utah led 16-14 at the half. "We weren't even hitting shots. We knew that if we kept to the defensive side and really locked down defensively, we knew we would get this outcome," said Utah guard Brandon Taylor. The Utes were able to pull ahead in the second half as Oregon State suffered through a 2-15 shooting slump. A 3-pointer by Taylor with 2:41 left put the Utes up 41-30 and helped seal the win. "I'd been missing all night. I got an open look and I knew it was going in," said Taylor, who finished with eight points and five rebounds.

Wal-Mart Stores Inc. said Thursday that the hike for 500,000employees,starting in April, is part of comprehensive changes to the company's hiring, training, compensation and scheduling programs in the United States, aswellasto store management structure.

"As they escalate pay, I expect I'll get a little more," Perkins, 51, said."I have certain bills — if I have to work here 16 hours a dayI want to pay." Perkins said he also wants to help out his three children. His youngest son just started college, and any pay raise could contribute to his tuition. 'This gives me the drive to come to work and work hard," he said. The pay raise puts entrylevel wages $1.75 an hour above the federal minimum wage. In addition, all current

I don't know about you but I love cooking with old cast iron skillets. In fact, that's all I use at home. They cook more evenly and the heat doesn't zip from the fire to your food instantaneously. They require a little tender loving care but not really any more than a Teflon skillet. With Teflon you have to use a plastic spatula or you end up scraping off and eating the Teflon coating, plus they're thin and you sizzle your food. The fi rststep you have todo when you purchase a new skillet/Dutch oven is to season it. If you listen to the hardcore old timers they11 make it an all-day deal to season one.

TO-DO LIST

New outdoor classes at EOU New and diverse courses focusing on outdoor activities are coming to Eastern Oregon University this spring term. Classes include an introduction to backpacking, hiking/trekking, beginning indoor rock climbing, basichorsemanship and beginning archery and are open to studentsand community members. "These courses are a great way to get outside and enjoy the tremendous outdoor opportunities available in Eastern Oregon, learn new exciting skills, meet new friends and promote healthy lifestyles," Michael Hatch, coordinator of EOU's Outdoor Program,

said in a press release. The one-credit physical education and sport (PES) 180 level classes are being offered through the Outdoor Program in conjunction with the Physical Activity and Health department. "All of these activities require little or no experience and provide the fundamentals for additional skills progression and hopefully development of life-long outdoor pursuits," Hatch added. For more information visit www.eou.eduloutdoorlpes-courses or contact Hatch at mhatch@ eou.edu or 541-962-3621.

Brownlee Reservoir level

is dropping In Hells Canyon, the elevation at Brownlee Reservoir is being lowered to make room for potential higher flows later in the spring. These flood control measures are directed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. As ofTuesday, Brownlee was at 2,057 feet, which is 20 feet below full. The current flood-control target is 2,055 feet by Feb. 28. The target level for the end of March will be adjusted after a new river-level forecast is issued March 5. All maintained boat ramps on Brownlee Reservoir remain usable at the current level. For the latest Brownlee elevation go to www.idahopower.com.

Confined as it is by signs of civilization on both ends — a reservoir on the upper, a state highway on the lower — the Powder River has the scenic rather than the wild designation. When you get to the river's edge you have a couple of options — the second option available only if you visit beforethe irrigation season startssometime thisspring. The first option is to return the way you came. That makes for a hike of about 1V2 miles, with an elevation gain of about300 feet. The other option, so long as it's not full of water, is to follow the Emele Ditch downstream for almost one mile. The ditch, which has been delivering irrigation water to fields in the Keating Valley since its completion in 1887, is about five feet wide and is easier to hike than most trails. Make sure not to climb the ditch banks, which could dislodge rocks into the waterway, or otherwise disturb the ditch. Although the ditch managers probably wouldn't mind if you tossed away any tree limbs you find in the channel. If you want to see where waterfrom the riveris diverted into the ditch, hike the ditch upstream for less

Not everyone has the same digestion system or metabolism. I am only describing what I've learned about myself. For instance, I haven't lost any weight on the program, but I have m ore energy and lessdigestive trouble. Another unanticipated change is a major reduction in chronic pain. I hear comments all the time about the way I walk; I've heard it my whole life. I walk wrong. So what. Leave me alone. Long car drives and cleaning usually make me stiffen up, but as I slid out the door to an appointment the other day after

four hours of cleaning, I realized I wasn't stiff and sore. The CHIP gurus claim that animal fat causes inflammation. Inflammation of what? Well, the large intestine for one, which doesn't explain anything. There are studies that claim arthritis swelling can be caused by animal fat. If the change in my diet alleviated pain to which I have grown accustomed, it is a welcome benefit. Back to I haven't lost any weight. It's extremely frustrating, and don't tell me that it isn't as important as feeling good or having proper organ functions. I'm a woman. I've worried about my weight most of my life.

Now, if I could just wake up my lousy metabolism.

dents practical applications of what they learn in school. "It gives them lots of self-confidence and practice," said Dr. Magdalena Pasarica, a UCF faculty adviser at the KNIGHTS clinic and associateprofessorofm edicine. "It helps that we're here as faculty, because we know what they're learning in class, and when they come here we know what to ask them. And when I go back to class, I know what they're lacking &om what I've seen, so I think it's a very good back-and-forth." But for most it's more than just a place to get a head start in practicing medicine. "Both my parents don't have insurance, so it's

important to me to give back to the medical community, because I know there are people out there who don't have insurance," said Ashley Brown, a second-year UCF medical student.

every woman I know who did have kids had to make work sacrifices." Genderstereotypes start young, the experts said. Instead ofhoning leadership skills like risk-taking, young women undermine their own success by questioning and diminishing themselves, wrote Rachel Simmons in"The Curse of the Good Girl." The result is a "psychological glass ceiling." Definitions of"feminine" and"masculine" must change, Pudrovska said.'When women in authority are assertive, dominant, powerful and confident, they're viewed as unfeminine," she said."Men don't have this conflict; these are'masculine' traits." Women excel at compassion and empathy, which complicates their leadership roles, Breathedsaid.'When men getto positionsofauthority, they'relike thechest-beating silverback gorillas; they've made it!" she said."But women

Women execs lendto stress more By Leslie Mann Chicago Tnbune

remember quite clearly a conversation I had when I was 25. A fiiend and I were discussinghow old people get themselves into poor health by making poor lifestyles choices. Itseemed tous ridiculous not to make good choices in order to have a long, active life. Recently I was visiting a woman in her 90s. We were discussing a mutual friend's choice to stop taking prescribed medication. When I toldher the side effects she said, "I don't blame her." Life is all about perspective. Now, somewhere between 25 and 90, my perspective on living a healthy lifestyle isn't different. I know that eating w ell and exercising are good for me, as is limiting stimulants and depressants like coffee and alcohol, but I'm not that disciplined. Thus, the attractiontothestructure of the Complete Health Improvement Program offered by the Wallowa Memorial Hospital. The structure is just two more weeks, but the reading and the classes have introduced me to some wonderful things, like the benefits of spices. Who knew they were nutritious? There are actually health benefits to things we add to our food for flavor. I'vedone a lotofexperimenting, trying to keep variety in my diet. I learned that grapefiuit is not a good smoothie item.

Nationally, hospitals report between 600 and 1,600 newborn falls each year, figures that almost certainly fall short of the true number of incidents, said Ann Slogar, nurse manager of the Mother Baby Unit at MetroHealth Medical Center in Cleveland.

Med students get hands-on experience helping uninsured By Naseem S. Miller Orlando Sentinel

ORLANDO — Every other Thursday night, University of Central Florida medical students don their white coats and practice what will one day be their real job. They see patients, run labs and schedule appointments at Grace Medical Home, which sees Orange County working poor who have no insurance.

'Thank you so much for being patient with us and helping teach us, too," fourth-year University of Central Florida medical student Glenn Gookin said to a 62-year-old uninsured patient as she seated herself on the exam table. Beside him stood second-year student Ross Russell and third-year University of Florida pharmacy student Jennifer Orozco, and the three workedtogetherto geta m edical

historyofthepatientand do a basic assessment before presenting the information to a volunteer physician who made the final diagnosis. The three are among student volunteers who help run the KNIGHTS clinic, which stands for Keeping Neighbors in Good Health Through Service, a collaboration between Grace Medical Home, UCF College of Medicine and UF College of Pharmacy in Orlando.

The nighttime clinic just turned 2, and it gives students the opportunity to work in a medical home — a comprehensive, patient-centered, primary-caremodel — alongside family physicians and specialists.

Oral health starts in kids before teeth are in

2015 Brain Awarenessworkshop isApril 4

Help for diabetics

With more than 40 percent of children having tooth decay by the time they are in kindergarten, it's important for parents to help prevent cavities — and treat them when they happen. The American Dental Association recommends wiping gums with a clean, moist cloth before teeth even come in. Once baby teeth are in, it's important to take care of them. Even if they aren't permanent, if lost too early, permanent teeth can drift, ending up crowded and crooked.

The 2015 Brain Awareness Teacher Workshop "How do Children Learn? The Power of Language" is April 4. Checkin begins at 9:30 a.m. The presenter is Patricia Kuhl, Ph.D., from the University of Washington Institute for Learning and Brain Services. Registration deadline is March 27The cost is $15.
