The largest of the fires has burned about 48 acres on Freezeout Ridge in the Hells Canyon Wilderness of Wallowa County.

Lightning started the fire, which is burning in steep and rugged country that includes grass as well as stringers of timber.

Fire crews are striving to protect the Horse Heaven Cabin.

Three other fires are all smaller than one acre. One is near Moccasin Lake in the Eagle CapWilderness, one along Duck Creek in the Hells Canyon National Recreation Area, and the other in the Six Lakes Basin in Idaho.

Baker City Councilor Roger Coles said he decided "life is too short" to seek anotherterm as oneofthecity's seven elected leaders.

Coles started the process of filing as a candidate in August, but he chose not to submit the Coles p a p erwork.

During the past nine months Coles, along with Councilor Dennis Dorrah and former Mayor Richard Langrell, represented a distinct minority on the Council over such flashpoint issues as the Resort Street Local Improvement District debateand proper security of the city's watershed.

Coles, who was elected to a four-year term in November 2010, has at times been an outspoken critic of city staf, including City Manager Mike Kee. Now, though, Coles said he is more than ready to complete his term, which expires at the end of the year.

"I've got some other things I want to focus on," he said.

"It's definitely time to move on."

TURNING BACK THE PAGES 50 YEARS AGO from the Democrat-Herald Sept. 8, 1964 The Baker County Fair Rodeo at Halfway Labor Day weekend will be remembered by fans for some "way out" roughand tough Western excitement and by cowboys as two days of accumulating lumps, cuts, and painful bruises.

Bob Bruce, a top saddle bronc rider from Midvale, Idaho, thanked his luck in drawing good horses both days and his ability to stay in the saddle and win the All-Around Cowboy championship.

25 YEARS AGO from the Democrat-Herald Sept. 8, 1989 Baker County has been dropped from the list of potential"megaprison" sites, according to Rep. Mike Nelson.

The county was one of 13 being considered in August, but the list has narrowed to Ontario, Linn County, and two sites in Boardman, according to Jane Nelson, Nelson's wife.

10 YEARS AGO from the Baker City Herald Sept. 7, 2004 Music lovers who stroll along Baker City's LeoAdler Memorial parkway don't need to burden themselves with hair-mussing headphones.

The Powder River performs a constant string of melodies — and no batteries required.

Except for one section, where the paved path ends and the rumble of passing cars replaces the river's tranquil trill.

City officials want to bridge this four-block-long gap between Washington Avenue and Madison Street.

They might need more than one bridge, though. The city, with support from local volunteers, is applying for an $850,000 grant through the Oregon Department of Transportation. That grant would pay most of the bill to build the Parkway between Washington and Madisonand, proponents hope, to build the path beside the river said Jennifer Watkins, the city's community development director.

Police dodycameras: legal ornotP • Oregon law requires police to notify citizens if their voices are being recorded

By Taylor W. Anderson WesCom News Service

Calls to update laws governing police who wear body cameras while on duty have made it to Oregon.

Oregon already allows police to use dashboard and license plate cameras, among other recording technology.

Some departments have also startedpilotprograms where officers always have a camera rolling on their shoulder or chest while they're on patrol.

But Oregon law requires the police to notify citizens if their voices are being recorded.

Following the shooting deathofan unarmed black teenager last month by a police officer in Ferguson, Missouri, departments acrossthe country are facing calls to use equipment that could provide another layer of evidence in police interactions. Many departments welcome the technology, and it's creating an alliance between digital privacy advocates and law enforcement in Oregon.

One American Civil Liberties Union of Oregon goal for 2015 is toclarify thatOregon police, some of whom are already using body cameras, can do so legally. ''We're probably reaching out to stakeholders to change Oregon law to make it clear

thatpoliceagenciescan use body cameras," said Dave Fidanque, executive director

ofACLU-OR. Fidanque says the law regarding police recording citizens —and citizens recording police — states that police must inform people they're being video- and audio-recorded unless they don't have a reasonable chance to do so.

"But the law is not clear on that point," Fidanque said. ''We want to make it clear."

Any proposed law making clear the legality of the small cameras always recording while police are in the field would be a slight departure from the bulk of the ACLU's legislative wish list in Oregon.

The ACLU has been working with a bipartisan group of legislators — including state Sen. Tim Knopp, R-Bendon bills during the interim that Knopp said will likely be ready by December.

Typically the ideas proposedinvolve bolstering outdated digital privacy laws and adding guidelines to new surveillance practices.

Studies have shown body cameras on police have cut down on use of force, and the ACLU has emerged as avocalproponent for the devices"as an im portant

SALT LICKS Continued from Page1A Blocks can be dropped off — and exchanged for a new one — at Oregon Trail Livestock Supply in Baker City or Richland Feed and Seed. Those who don't want a replacement block can take entries to Crossroads Carnegie Art Center in Baker City.

Forty blocks will be chosen for the live auction. The rest will be sold through a silent auction.

There is more than $1,000 in prize money to be won, thanks to local sponSors.

The second way to participate is to "happily bid and spend money like you never dreamed of on a one-of-a-kind tongue-craftedsaltblock sculpture."

WOMEN Continued from Page1A Morrison said women come from all over Eastern Oregon, as well as adjoining states.

Morrison said "A past attendee shared 'The whole experience has been so very awesome and has had a positive impact on myself and the women I came with.

Life changing!' " Moore is a best-selling author and nationally ac-

tool for police accountability," Fidanque said.

Kevin Campbell, executivedirectoroftheOregon Association Chiefs of Police, said in a written response to questions about the proposal that the groups are early in talks, but that body cameras could benefit police and the

public.

"Issues that will need further consideration include publicdisclosure ofbody camerafootage,data storage and retention policies, addressing consenttorecord issues and consideratio n ofprivacy impacts to name just a few," Campbell wrote.

It's not clear whether more departments in Oregon would adopt the technology that's being tested in major cities like Chicago, New York

and Milwaukee at $500 per camera or more apiece.

Bend Police Chief Jim Porter said his department is already testing two body camerasand willorder "enough to where everyone in the field has a camera available for them."

Other departments, like one in Lane County, say they can't afford the technology.

The cost to maintain and store the data is far higher than to buy the cameras.

So any proposal to require

LOCAL BRIEFING Forester to speak to woodland owners Paul Oester, extension forester for the Oregon State University Extension Service in Union, Wallowa and Umatilla counties, will speak to the Baker County Private Woodlands Association during its its Sept. 18 meeting.

The meeting will start at 6:30 p.m. at the OSU Extension Offlce, 2600 East St. in Baker City.

Oester manages the 120-acre Oberteuffer iObiel Research and Education forest and one ofhis current projects is studying how to manage forests for uneven-aged characteristics using an ITS or individual tree selection process.

Little is known about uneven-aged forestry and this study will help provide information on how landowners can implement ITS in a typical mixed conifer forest and how the stand, including regeneration, responds to periodicharvestentries.

Some of the questions the study is examining include: • Will uneven-age management promote a shift towards shade-tol eranttreespecies?

• How will it influence the volume, type and quality of wood fiber production?

•What aretheassociated logging costsand damage to residual trees?

• How can ITS be used to enhance wildlife habitat?

GUEST EDITORIAL

1m.1 USC

0 icense Editorial from The (Bend) Bulletin:

If police cameras capture an image of your car's license plate, how long should they be able to keep the information? Days? Months? Years?

That's one of the issues Oregon lawmakers will try to settle when they meet for their 2015 legislative session early next year.

When legislators considered the subject during their short 2014 session, Senate Bill 1522 would have set diferent limits depending on the purpose of the collection, but the bill didn't get out of committee.

Now, a bipartisan group, including Sen. Tim Knopp, R-Bend, is working to find agreement for a new effort.

Like so many issues involving technology, this one pits legitimate policing interests against personal privacy. It's a balancing act in which the details make all the difference.

In addition to how long the information can be retained, legislators must consider who can access it and for what purposes, among other issues.

SB1522, for example, would have permitted the data to be used to enforce parking or traKc violations, to identify a vehicle involved in a crime, or to help find a person for whom there is an outstanding warrant, among others.

At least five Oregon police departments have used the technology, including Portland, which retains it for four years. Sixteen of the department's 300 patrol cars have surveillance equipment that automatically reads license plates, which is credited with helping findstolen cars.

Legislation also needs to address whether private companies or individuals can gain access to the information. That might allow, for example, a husband or wife to track each other's movements. Over time, the data could reveal much about anindividuals' lives, showing when and where they shop, worship, recreate orseek medical care.

Police license-plate readers are but one of many such ways modern technology can invade our privacy. Solving this issue in a way that offers maximum protection to individuals without imperiling police operations is just a small piece of a much larger modern dilemma.

No doubt law enforcement will do a thorough job of informing lawmakers of the benefits of surveillance and retention of data. We urge legislators to be sure privacy rights get suKcient consideration, and to remember that somehow our communities have survived and thrived without this data in the past.

Lawmakers should limit the uses of this data and require its destruction sooner rather than later.

na un anceo caution eaves amatoo ewo tions President Barack Obama's recent admission that he does not yet have a strategy to deal with the Islamic State (also known as ISIS and ISIL), which now holds significant territory in the Middle East, is the latest reminder that we arein aperiod ofisolation — ormore truthfully, one of willful blindness.

Some commentators have praised Obama for the candor ofhis comments.

He is exercising caution, they say, as if the only alternative to being George W. Bush is being Jimmy Carter.

But most observers acknowledge the reality that editors of The Economist so aptly articulated months before the president's unfortunate phrasing hit the airwaves When America's president speaks of due caution, the world hears reluctance — especially when it comes to the most basic issue for any superpower, its willingness to fight."

And without a president's leadership, how does a nation know what to fight for?

Obama's reluctance to project U.S. power does not come as a surprise, nor is it a disappointment to many. Americans elected him not in spite of this tendency but because of it.

Only a year ago, the Pew Research Center found that nearly half of Americans wanted the United States to "mind its own business internationally," suggesting that even the shrinking role of the U.S. in international affairs was too much.

But on account of recent and disturbing eventsperpetrated by aterrorist organization that is "as sophisticated and well-funded as any group that we have seen," according to Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel — and one hell-

CYNTHIA M. ALLEN bent on killing Americans and Europeans among others — the public has become understandably worried that a laissez-faire policy is as dangerous as a heavy-handed one.

Pew's latest study shows that more than half of Americans think Obama's approach in foreign policy is not tough enough, a sentiment undoubtedly reinforced by his clumsy, if wholly sincere comments last week.

Through the brutal killings of women and children in Iraq and Syria and the barbaric beheadings of U.S. journalists at the hands of a masked militant, Americans are only beginning to learn the breadth of the threat they face from the Islamic State.

But the administration, and the president in particular, has long known the nature of the threat that this organized army of terrorists poses to the U.S. and its allies.

Reports that Obama was given"granular" details and specific intelligence aboutthe riseofthe Islamic Stateforat leastayearbefore the group descended upon Mosul make not only his inaction at the time but also his failure to clearly articulate and pursue a strategy now all the more alarming.

The refrain that people are war-weary has been a frequent media trope, but it has also become somewhat of an excuse for inaction.

To borrow a phrase from columnist Peggy Noonan, Americans are "more like war-leery, or war-wary, which a

great nation should be, especially after two wars, both bungled in their execution and their ending."

But for those Americans who served, whether as civilians or in uniformme and my husband included — the squandered opportunity to build on the success of the surge in Iraq, and the willful neglect of the threat emerging acrossthe Syrian border,area betrayal of their sacrifice. Even limited but strategicand sustained effortsyearsagowhen the available options to intervene were many — could have deterred the Islamic State's rise to power.

Instead, we find ourselves in a situation where the only palatable option may be to wait for our enemy's next deadly move. Hence our absent strategy.

The U.S. has long been entangled in a perilous and perennial cycle of total engagement followed by total abandonment of the most volatile and dangerous region in the world — which did not start with this president or even his predecessor. But it has become Obama's cross to bear.

His eventual strategy must marry a robust diplomatic and military offensive against the Islamic State, including better arming our allies on the ground, congressional authorization to useforceand leading the rest of the world — from the front this time — in the effort to destroy and not merely contain the threat.

Unless his plan does all these things, the Islamic State will be his successor's cross to bear as well.

GUEST EDITORIAL Editorial from the Pittsburgh Post Gazette: Itisa rarecelebrity who dreads exposure, but the computer hackers who broke into Apple's iCloud service platform to steal intimate photos, emails and phone contacts of well-known actors have brought new meaning to the problem.

The FBI is not amused. The

bureau is investigating the theft of nude photos fiom what was supposedtobethe protected iCloud account of actress Jennifer Lawrence.

Lawrence's photos were deposited on an anonymous image sharing site where the public has unrestricted access.

As many as 100 celebrities have had their iCloud accounts compro-

mised by determined hackers. They arebelieved to havetaken advantage of a back door in Apple's "Find My iPhone" app to infiltrate and raid the image storing platform. That back door has since been closed, but the fix comes too late for many who once believed that cloud-based platforms added an extra layer of security that was practically impreg-

nable.

It shouldn't be necessary to state the obvious, but in this case it is: Because there are bad people lurking on the Internet, a good rule of thumb is to assume that once photos areuploaded,a determined thiefor voyeur can get at them.

That said, it isn't enough to tell celebrities or ordinary people to stop

uploading nude photos of themselves to the cloud many people will do whatever they like without regard to the consequences. It's still important that image storing platforms such as iCloud constantly update their security protocols.

Apple and its competitors should also level with the public: There is no such thing as privacy in cyberspace.

STATE BRIEFING Umatilla schools offer free lunch for all kids

• Senate president agrees with governor's proposal for flawed health insurance program

By Gosia Wozniacka

PENDLETON iAPl — No student at the Umatilla School District will be charged for lunch anymore.

The East Oregonian reports ihttp//bit.ly/1wduu01l that the school district announced its &ee lunch program to begin this year. The district hasn't sent letters out to parents about the new program yet, but school officials are seeing less home-made lunches.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture is footing the bill for the free lunches under the Community Eligibility Provision program, in which school districts with more than 40 percent of students automatically qualify for free lunches can get reimbursed for 1.6 times that number if they offer free lunch to every student.

Nutrition director Rikkilynn Larsen says her department already served 3,891 lunches during the first four days of school, compared to 3,662 during the same time period last year

The state's governor has already made his choice for the quasi-independent publiccorporation that was set up by the Legislature to run allaspects ofthe state's health insurance marketplace. And so has state Senate President Peter Courtney.

In astatement released late on Thursday, Gov. John Kitzhaber suggested the board should dissolve Cover Oregon to "maximize our resources while minimizing the risks."

"I believe that given past technical and management problems and the ongoing uncertainty and unknowns of astand-alone organization, moving the remaining state exchange functions from Cover Oregon to existing stateagencies offersthe lowest-risk path," Kitzhaber said in the statement.

On Fridayafternoon, Courtney announced he plans to introduce legislation next year to dissolve the publiccorporation that runs Cover Oregon. He would transfer its responsibilities to the Oregon Health Authority and the Oregon Insurance Division.

SALEM iAPl — Oregon's Dundee Hills suffered &om late rains last year that impacted the quality of wine in one of Oregon's most productive regions.

Not this year.

Vintners in the Willamette Valley say the conditions have so far been perfect, and early September has given white-grape growers a chance to start harvesting early.

The first picking of the state's famous pinot noir grapes isn't far behind, The Statesman Journal reported ihttp J/ stjr.nl/lrliEgo l.

Stoller Family Estate vineyard manager Robert Schultz says Oregon's hot summer and the mild conditions for ambientyeaston thegrapes themselves combined to forecast a strong early harvest.

'This year is remarkable for its earliness, perfect conditions at bloom and increased heat accumulation," Schultz said, adding that thisyear'scrop is"bigger and riper earlier than lastyear."

Melissa Burr, who is celebrating her 12th vintage at Stoller, is also enthusiastic about this harvest.'We have a healthy and heavy fruit set across the entire vineyard.

The vineyard flowered in a compressed period of time, which leads me to think that harvest will also be compressed, and we are ready," Burr said.

Schultz said harvest should be done at Stoller by midOctober.

At Sokol Blosser and other Willamette Valley vineyards, thevineyard has begun harvesting grapes foritssparkling wine offerings.

If the warm weather keeps up — temperatures reached the low 90s on Saturday — the pinot noir grapes could come earlier than anticipated.

A farmer prepares for a new crop in a field along Highway 30 near Haines. Twin Mountain looms in the background.

Recordrainiall causesPhoenixilooding PHOENIX iAPl â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Heavy storms pounded the Phoenix area early Monday, flooding major fieeways and small roads, breaking an 81-year-old rainfall record before dawn, and leading to several water rescues.

The National Weather Service issued a flash flood warning for most of the Phoenix area and its outskirts because ofheavy thunderstorms and rain. Flash flood watches cover most of the rest ofArizona.

Sections of the major commuter freeways Interstate 10 and 17 in Phoenix were closed in the run up to rush hour.

Television video showed traffic crawling through standing water on I-10 in west Phoenix, and the state Department of Public Safety askeddriversto postpone their commute. Freeways at several underpassesresembled small lakes as the Arizona Departm ent of Transportation said its pumping stations couldn't

keep up with the downfall.

In central Phoenix, Sky Harbor InternationalAirport received over 2.55 inches of rain since midnight, breaking theoldrecord of1.33incheson the same date in 1933.

Numerous street closures were reported in citiesacross the metro area, and the Phoenix Fire Department was performing several water rescues.

In Scottsdale, 25 firefighters helpedfree a man trapped

in his car by 3 feetofrunning water. He was evaluated and released. There were no immediate reports of any injuries.

Scatteredelectricity outagesare reported in the m etro area with over 5,000 customers losing power.

The Tempe Union High School District said the storm wasdelaying itsstart and that students could either stay home Monday or go toschool late.

A growing number of voters in Oregon are choosing not to register with the state's two main parties, creatingchallengesfor Democratic and Republican party leaders who want to know which races to focus their resources on as November approaches.

In a year with more unaffiliated voters than ever, predicting what will happen in November becomes an equation with no perfect outcome.

If Tom Powers' math is correct, Oregon Democrats would not only have another Senate majority for the next two years after this election, they would add to theirtwo-seatcontrol.

Powers, who is executivedirectorofthe Senate Democratic Leadership Fund, said internal polling and other data show Senate Democraticcandidates might fare well in what's typically a strong Republican cycle.

The parties create a databaseofvoterswho aren't Republican or Democrat and assign them a score based on the likelihood that they will support Democratic or Republican candidates.

"I think our polling confirms that the Senate map this year favors Democrats and the math favors Democrats as well," Powers said.

The Senate Republicans' campaign arm, The Leadership Fund, didn't respond to a request for comment.

The parties have identified four Senate races that could be key for who controls the Senate for the

next two years .

Democrats have an edge in each of those races, Powers and registration data say, but the number of unailiated and other voters in every district is large enough to sway each race.

RegisteredDemocrats in the race of Sen. Betsy Close, R-Albany, who was appointedtoherseat,far outnumberregistered Republicans.

Sen. Alan"Doc" Bates, of M edford, isconsidered the most vulnerable Democrat, but Powers said he expects independent voters in the district will lean to Bates over his Republican challenger Dave Dotterrer.

SalPeralta,secretary of the Independent Partyof Oregon,said there are more optionsto considerthat make predicting results a guessing game.

"I think that the likeliest outcome in this cycle is that the iDemocratsl will pick up one seat in the Senate and the iRepublicansl might pick up one or two in the House," Peralta said.

Republican candidates also won the Independent Party nomination in many oftheclose Senate and House races. Peralta said voters who aren't familiar with legislative races might see the Independentlabel on theballotand vote for that candidate.

Peralta said the Independent Party nomination that many Republican candidates will carry on the ballot should help them offset some oftheregistration imbalance.

New use for old knickers I learned a lesson about hackneyed phrases and cliches this summer.

Although they are something writers work to avoid using, sometimes there's just no better way to make a point that needs making.

In my case, the words that came rolling off my tongue were these: Necessity is the mother ofinvention.

The phrase perfectly describes how Icame tocreate a gardening product I jokingly dream of marketing — or at least sharing with others.

My friend, Heidi Klammer, named the product while we were camping at Wallowa Lake State Park with my daughter, Janey-Rae, and her pal, Desirae Shorten, in July.

As we sat around the campfire one night considering various titles, Heidi suggested Knicker Kneelers. You see, out of necessity, I had covered my plastic garden kneeling pad with a cotton cloth after it had become hot and sticky in the heat of the sun.

Little things, big irritation It's the little pesky things in life that wear one down.

Something or someone gives you the strength and knowledge ofhow to overcome the traumas of the big things that threaten to destroy you, but it's the little irritability things that nip at your heels, sting and fly away that finally threaten to get the best of you.

Take a few examples: A bicycle rider goes on through a stop sign without even slowing down and then turning without signaling or apedestrian stepping out into the street without looking left or right as though they have no responsibility for their own safety. They are old enough to know the rules for bicycles or the possibledangers ofstreettrafftc.Itirks me.

Even at 70

mph, there is so much beauty to see With the death of my husband's sister we made an unexpected trip across Idaho and Utah.

During all that driving I enjoyed the thousands imillionsl of wild sunflowers blooming along the freeway and every country road. They are so wonderful and a great diversion.

I wanted to take some pictures, but with the truck flying by at 70+ miles per hour it was impossible.

Wildflowers are one of my favorite things also and I enjoy them at every chance I get. Let's all look around and see the beauty that is totally free to us, with no work on our part.

My first year of picking fresh berries has been an adventure in harvesting and cooking.

Blackberries proved to be equally as rewarding. I am not going to complain about my stained fingers and scraped hands and legs. Those luscious berries filled with healthy antioxidants are simply delicious and I would like to have as many stored in my freezer as I can, for all kinds of delicious treats.

HOME 8 LIVING

ettin voursummer earrea ora ByAIison Highberger We hate to mention it, but there are only two weeks of summer left.

That means it's time to come up with a game plan to put away the accouterments of the season: outdoor furniture, shoes and hats, sporting and recreational gear, and garden tools.

When you put summer stufFaway, one category at a time, all clean and organized, you11 be ready to go next year. And won't that feel good?

F

Plastic, aluminum or wrought-iron patio furniture should be cleaned ofFwith soapy water ione squirt of dishwashing liquid in a bucket of warm water), scrubbed with a sponge or soft brush, and then rinsed and allowed to air dry thoroughly, according to Real Simple Magazine's website.

Wicker and teak furniture should be cleaned with a soft brush "dampened with water and a mild oil-based soap, such as Murphy Oil Soap," and then rinsed and air dried, according to the Real

Simple.

Check the big-box home stores, hardware stores or online for a variety ofpatio furniture covers.

Bend-based professional organizer Tammie Barber iwww. tammietotherescue.coml likes the covers that are designed to protect a stack ofchairs,instead ofjusta singleone.

'You can also buy a bench cover and iQI fit over two or three chairs," Barber said.Other coversfi tover around tableand chairseti$29.981,or abigrectan-

gular table and chair set i$36.981.

If possible, store wicker inside because it expands and contracts with heat and humidity, and could crack in extreme weather, Barber said. Also, tables with stone tops should winter inside, she said, since moisture in stone can freeze and break the stone.

Brush off cushions and umbrellas, and store them in the garage or inside the house.Largeplasticgarbage bags willprotectfabricsfrom dust and dirt.

Sporting and recreational gear Maybe you'd like to set up a storage system in your garage this year. Barber has experience helping people install the Rubbermaid Fast Track Garage Storage System that includes shelving, cabinets, baskets and other accessories.

Barberalso likeslarge pegboardsin garages forstorage.They're lessexpensive and more flexible than track systems.

"Once the track system is in, you're married to it. Pegboards can be moved, or hooks and holders can be changed around," Barber said.

A 43-piecepegboard organizerkitatHome Depot,w ith avariety ofhooks and holders, costslessthan $12.Fullsheetsofpegboard i4-by-8-feetlcost between $14-$18 each, depending on whether they're plain or painted.

'They have a hook for everything. A pegboard hook designed to hold tools could easily hold tennis rackets. And the hooks often cost less than $3," Barber sald.

Wire or steel shelving units are another option. Barber likes to use large, sturdy plastic bins to store items.

"I love the clear ones, because you can see inside, but you still have to label them," she said.

When you decide on a system of shelves or wall hooks and baskets, consider using what you already have at home to organize things, said Barber.

"Reuse old plastic bins by poking holes in them and hooking them to the pegboard or track. For one client, I made a bin to hold baseball gloves," she sald.

Ifyour spacepermits,keep each sportor activity separate:biking gearin one area, golfitems in another. Hang fishing rods, hiking poles, paddles, and bicycles from hooks in the ceiling to save precious floor space.

Golf clubs Don't leave golf clubs in an unheated garage over the winter. Long cold

return — if

you let them

By TiffanyWoods Oregon State University Extension Service

CORVALLISAs fall approaches, considerletting some of your annuals go to seed. If the winter isn't too harsh, they may pop up next spring.

Annual plants are inherentlyprogrammed to setseed and die in one year. During the summer, you can keep them blooming and postpone seed development by deadheading and fertilizing them, said Brooke Edmunds, a horticulturist with Oregon State University's Extension Service.

But come September, let the meticulous care go. Allow the flower heads to dry and droop.

The wind and birds will scatter ripe seeds.

Edmunds said good seed settersinclude sweet peas, sunflowers, calendula, borage, nasturtiums and annual delphiniums. Common garden and Flanders poppies, clarkia, alyssum and even petunias will come back year after year, depending on winter's severity,

KNICKERS

Annuals

As you sort through summer clothes, get rid of wornout, unused and out-of-style garments, Barber told us. If you didn't wear them this year, it's unlikely you11 wear them next year, so put them in a donate bag and free up some space.

Sandals Ifyou can get another year out of this summer's flip-flops, www.thriftyfun. com suggests several ways to dean them. Hand wash flip-flops, or wear them in the shower and let the shampoo get them clean. Use a magic eraser sponge to getrid of scuff marks, or put flip-flops in the top rack of the dishwasher and make sure it's set on the"cool dry cycle."

To clean Teva-style sandals, wwwteva.com recommends wann water and mild soap and a soft bristled brush, and then allow them to air dry. Ifyour sandals are a little odoriferous, the Teva company has another option: Mix 1 cup antibacterial mouthwash in 2 cups of water and soak the sandals for 15 minutes; then scrub, rinse and air dry.

Caps and hats Many baseball caps can be washedin the washing machine in cold water with dothes of the same color.

Some people wash baseball caps in the top rack of the dishwasher. Never use bleach. Check to see if there's a tagin the cap with fiber content and cleaning instructions.

The website http//laundryabout.com has detailedinformation about deaning baseball caps, indudinghow to pretreat them to getout dirt and sweat stains.

The website mentions thathat forms that protect the shape of the cap ate useful.

Searchonlinefor"cap washer"or"baseballcap cleaningcage."

Baseball caps should air dry. Don'tput them in a dothes dryer.

Natural straw hats or synthetic straw hats should be wiped clean with a damp, white doth, according to http J/Iaundry.about.com.

"For oily stains, sprinkle the hat with cornstarch or talcum powder to absorb the oil, allow to stand for a few hours, and then brush away," says this laundry website.

Store summer straw hats covered,"to prevent crushing and dust accumulation."

Garden tools

she added.

Clean dirtoffgarden tools using awite brush and alittle WD40, motor oil, or mineral oil, according to wwwehowcom and Martha Stewart iwwwmarthastewart.coml. It's a good time to sharpen shovels, hoes and picks with afile at a 20-degtiee angle.

M arlha goesone stepfarther,ofcourse.

"Clean metal tools byplunghg them in a bucketofoiled sand. To make oiled sand, pour'/4 quart ofmotor or mineral oil into a 5-gallon bucketof sand ithe sand should be damp butnotmoist). Push the blades of tools in the sand. This helps dean and condition the metal," Stewart writes.

Hybrids, Edmunds noted, will not come back "true to type" the following year because they do not produce uniform offspring. For m ost people, that isn't really a problem. It just means instead of having a pure stand of all white alyssum, you may end up with some splashes of purple.

Herbs and greens such aslettuce are also willing self-sowers, she said. Dill and cilantro may come back every year from seed heads leftto overwinter.

Final tips As you put summer away, organizer Barber gave us a few more guidingprinciples: Label everythirg, soyou can find everythingeasily.

found just three of us were registered:me, my buddy,LisaJacoby, and her 7-year-old daughter, Olivia.

Our instructor, Ginger Rembold, led us through a night of fun and declared us — mostly me and Lisa, not so much Olivia — particularly needy students!

In addition to three T-shirts, I took two pairs of old undies to the party to be transformed into Knicker Kneelers. One of my tiedyed creations made its way to the Upcycle Contest at the La Grande library, thanks to Heidi, a Union resident who travels to Baker City routinely. She transported my Knicker Kneeler-covered kneeling pad to La Grande just in time to enter the competition.

Alas, I didn't win. I didn't even placesecond orthird orreceive an honorablemention award. But my Knicker Kneeler is featured on Facebook along with the other entries, including a close-up of my tie-dyedcreation.

And, how about your favorite outfit that you love to wear because it looks nice, yet is comfortable. It fit the season lastyear butthisyearitistoo snug around the middle.

Or, when the phone rings, you run the length of the house to answer it, and it turnsoutto be a salesperson, an opinion poll, or no one on the line.

Then there are the nice healthy-looking trees in your yard that suddenly die overnight and must be removed because a bug has killed them from inside their bark, or you can't find something that you badly need to continue working in home or yard.

To view the entries and the winners, go to the La Grande Summer Reading Program on Facebook. I've got to hand it to my competitors, the entries all were creatively clever.

As for me, I'm not discouraged ialthough, I'll admit to being a little disappointed at not winning). Still, I'm planning my next tie-dying party to produce more Knicker Kneelers for my gardening fiiends and family.

Earwig solutions In addition to tolerating my gifting of upcycled underwear, my mom and dad are always interested in helping me solve my gardening dilemmas.

This summer the earwigs have been making their way through the garden, chewing on lettuce, beet greens and basil leaves, especially.

Here's my mom's nontoxic solutionforgetting rid ofearwigs, which she gleaned from one of her many sources iexcluding the

county fair; a lost earring; a computer program that you don't understand changing your lineup of numbers or alphabet as though it knows better what you want to type than you do; a bad hair day; a parking ticket; a long wait for the light to change or the train to go by and you're in a hurry; a 6 a.m. bird's call waking you when you want to sleepin.

It isn't that we can't handle them, one by one, but are harder to accept when they gang up in series of three and four while your resistance is low.

Internet): Take a yogurt cup and poke holes around the top, pour a small amount of cooking oil in the bottom of the cup and a few drops of soy sauce iwhich apparently lures the earwigs to the trap). Cover the cup with cellophane held in place with a rubber band over the top 4e sure not to cover the holes with the plastic wrap).

This has worked well for me and I've not only captured earwigs, but also lots of ants along the way.

My dad, who also is not an Internet user, offered this solution: Place rolled up newspapers in the garden at night. The next day dump the newspapersdirectly into a garbage can without inspecting to see how many earwigs you've carried away.

I also can testify to the effectiveness of this method. I saw one earwig squirm free at the bottom of mygarbage can afterI'd dropped the paper inside and suspect that otherswere trapped inside aswell.

That's why I'm particularly pleased to learn that my complaint about folks swallowing theirwords ormusicplaying so loudly that it overwhelms the speaker isn't just my objection. It possiblyis done on purpose by an unseen director or by a lack of enunciation on the partofthe speaker.

WASHINGTON — The gap between the richest and poorest Americans widened even as the U.S. economic recoverygained traction in theyearsaftertherecession, the Federal Reserve said.

Average, or mean, pretax income for the wealthiest 10 percent of U.S. families rose 10 percent in 2013 from 2010, but families in the bottom 40 percent saw their average inflation-adjusted income declineoverthatperiod,according to the Fed's Survey of Consumer Finances, which is conducted every three years.

The report showed little change in average take-home pay formiddle-and uppermiddle-class families, who "failedto recover the losses experienced between 2007 and 2010," it said.

Overall, average income rose4 percent from the 2010 survey while median — the midpoint with half higher and halflower — income fell 5 percent, "consistent with increasing income concentration during this period," the report said. Median income fell for every income bracket exceptthe top 10 percent.

The top 3 percent of families saw their share of total income rise to 30-V2 percent in 2013from 27.7percent in 2010, while the bottom 90 percent saw their share

Fed economists said the data reflect a return to the economy's prerecession trend.

During the recession, income distributionnarrowed as topearning families saw their incomes fall.

Widening income inequality has gained increasing attention over the pastyear from economists, policy makers and the wider public amid concerns over the uneven gains of the economic recovery. Last week's Fed reportdescribed "substantial disparities in the evolution of income and net worth" since 2010, even as the unemployment rate fell and economic growth rebounded following the 2007-09 recession.

Fed Chairwoman Janet Yellen, during her Senate confirmation hearing last November, called widening inequality "a very deep problem" but cautioned that"many of the underlying factors are things thatareoutsideoftheFederal Reserve's ability to address."

The median net worth of American families tumbled during the recession years.

While the situation has stabilized, families haven't regained their lost ground, the reportrevealed.Median net worth fell 2 percent in 2013 from 2010, while average net worth was basically flat.

Wealth inequality has deepened over time. The top 3 percentheld 54.4 percentofall wealth in 2013, up from 44.8 percent in 1989. The bottom 90 percent held 24.7 percent of wealth last year, down from 33.2 percent in 1989.

The vast majority of Americans own assets of some kind. But ownership ratesfor most typesofassets — stocks and retirement accounts, cars and homesfell between 2010 and 2013, indicating that"many more families now hold fewer different types ofassets,"the report said.

Mariota hit Allen with a 70-yard touchdown pass to give the Ducks an 18-7 lead with 10:12 to go in the half. Allen, the NCAA's reigning 110-meter hurdles champion, shook off strong safety RJ Williamson before sprinting in for the score.

But the Ravens responded in the second half with four unanswered touchdowns and went on to hand Baker a 3518 nonleaguelossatBulldog Memorial Stadium.

Ridgeview, which moved up to 5A this season, was held ofFbalance early by Baker's defense and by its own mistakes and penalities.

On the Ravens' first ofFensive series a bad snap pinned them back on their own 17 and forced them to punt.

Baker took advantage with an air attack by freshman quarterback Sam Hamilton, whose older brother, Thomas Hamilton, was last year's Bulldog quarterback before transferringthisfallto Oregon City.

On Friday, Sam Hamilton led Baker down the field with a seriesoffi rst-down passes on a drive that culminated in Porter Cline's 1-yard touchdown run that gave Baker a

6-0 lead.

That was the only scoring play until, with 3:51 left in the first half, Ridgeview's Tanner Stevens ran it in from the 11, followed by PAT that gave the Ravens a 7-6

lead.

Cline returned the ensuing kickofF to midfield. Firstdown runs by Zarom Bruce and Marcus Plumley moved the ball to the Ridgeview 21.

Hamilton connected with Mason Powell to the Raven 7,and sophomore Plumley finished the drive with a touchdown run.

The Bulldogs couldn't convert the two-point conversion and hadto settlefor a 12-7 lead with 1:21 left in the half.

On Ridgeview's next possession quarterback Jacob Johnson's pass was picked ofFby Cline, who ran it to the Raven 33 with 1:09 left.

Keaton Bachman made a one-hand catch of a Hamilton pass to get Baker to the Ridgeview 11. After a holding

Baker failed again to convert a two-point try, but the Bulldogs went into the locker room leading 18-7 eWe had a great first half, both defensively and offensively," Baker Coach Dave Johnson said.

"And we had a couple of plays by our special teams that were shining."

The second half was a different story.

The Bulldogs were slow coming out of the dressing room, resulting in a 15-yard penalty assessed on the kickofF. That seemed to set the tone for the third quarter. eWe obviously didn't play as well in the second half," Johnson said.eWe had a couple of turnovers and they took advantage."

Ridgeview started in good field position on the Bulldog 42, and took just three plays before Johnson connected with Tanner O'Neal on a pass to theleftcornerfora

touchdown with 10:27 left in the third quarter.

The extra point cut Baker's lead to 18-14.

The Bulldogs turned the ball over on the next series with a dropped pitch, and Ridgeview recovered on the Baker 22. Ridgeview used the same pass to same corner of the end zone with the same receiver and the same result — a touchdown and extra point that gave the Ravens 21-18 lead.

Aftera Baker punt,the Bulldogdefense forced Ridgeview into two fourth downs, but both times Johnson completed a pass to O'Neal to convert.

The drive ended in a touchdownrun thatincreased Ridgeview's lead to 28-18 with 4:34 left in the third quarter.

By KalaniTakase Associated Press

HONOLULU — Oregon State is fnding ahome away from home inthe i middle of the Pacific Ocean.

Playing in Aloha Stadium for the second time in a little more than eight months, the Beavers put up a solid first-half offensive performance before holding on down the stretch in a 38-30 win over Hawaii Saturday night.

Sean Mannion threw for 300 yards and three touchdowns to lead Oregon State.

M annion completed 26 of37 passesas the Beaversi2-Olracked up 464yards of total ofFense against the Rainbow War-

riors i0-2l. eWe'll take it," Oregon State coach Mike Riley said.eWe know we got to get better in some aspects. We knew that last weekend and we got better in some of those things fiom last week. We just gottokeep improving."

Victor Bolden caught 11 passes for 119 yards, including a 6-yard touchdown reception early in the second half Terron Ward rushed for 124 yards and scored on runs of 32 and 2 yards in the first

half.

Oregon State built a 38-7 lead by the 10:56 mark in the third quarter, but Hawaii scored the final 23 points of the game, including 16 points in a four-minute stretch early in the fourth quarter.

"I was justglad we did it because I have alotofrespectfortheirdefense iandl their defensive stafF. I think they're well coached," Riley said.

Joey Iosefa had a career-high three touchdown runs for Hawaii.

Hawaii drove 59 yards to the Oregon State 16 on the game's opening possession, but linebacker Jabral Johnson forced a fumble by Iosefa, which was recovered by the Beavers' Siale Hautau.

Oregon State recycled the turnover into a 4-yard touchdown pass from Man-

nion to Richard Mullaney to open the scoring. The Beavers then extended their lead on Mannion's 5-yard scoring strike to Connor Hamlett on the next drive.

Two possessions later, Ward scampered into the end zone from 32 yards out to give his team a 21-0 lead early in the second quarter.

Hawaii got its first score with 10:52 to play in the second quarter when Iosefa plunged into the end zone from 2 yards out. The score was set up on an interception by TJ Taimatuia after Mannion's pass was deflected at the line of scrimmage.

Garrett Owens made a 27-yard field on Oregon State's ensuing drive and after a Hawaii three-and-out, Mannion and company drove 84 yards in seven plays, capped by Ward's second touchdown run, to make the score 31-7.

After its opening possession, Hawaii managed just 51 yards for the rest of the

half.

Hundley, UCLAhold off Memphis PASADENA, Calif. iAPl — When Memphis safety Fritz Etienne returned an interception for a tying touchdown with 13:44 to play, No. 11 UCLA appeared to be in a world of trouble in its home opener.

Not to the confident quarterback who threw the pick, however. Brett Hundley calmly kept the Bruins on course for another win at the Rose Bowl.

Hundley passed for 396 yards and three touchdowns, Paul Perkins rushed for two scores and UCLA survived a fourth-quarter scare for a 42-35 victory over Memphis on Saturday night.

Thomas Duarte caught two TD passes and linebacker Myles Jack rushed for his first score of the season for the Bruins i2-0l, who barely held ofFthe underdog Tigers i1-1l despite 540 yards of total offense.

The Bruins are still unbeaten after two tougher-thanexpected games, and coach Jim Mora sees positives amid the concern.

"Obviously, still a lot to work on," Mora said."That's the game we play, though. We're happy to get a win, but there's no satisfaction yet in the way we're playing."

Etienne romped 17 yards for the tying score moments after Doroland Dorceus' 40-yard TD run, stunning a Rose Bowl crowd expecting an easy win.

But Hundley kept his teammates calm in the ensuing huddle, and Duarte caught a 33-yard TD pass with 10:52 left. The Bruins' defense made three late stops to secure their fourth straight win in a home opener.

"I think everything went pretty well today," said Hundley, who went 33 for 44.'You can see when we put together a soli d and complete game, we can be a specialteam. We hamper ourselves with mental lapses, but we can be a great team."

Paxton Lynch passed for 305 yards and rushed for a score for Memphis in the schools' first meeting. The Tigers fell agonizingly short of upset victories over Louisville and Central Florida last season.

USC slips past Stanford in defensive game STANFORD, Calif. iAPl — New Southern California coach Steve Sarkisian smiled, pumped his fist and threw his arms in the air as his players jumped around the sideline at Stanford Stadium.

All of the emotions that had been lacking for USC the past few years finally came pouring out on the road, against a rival and in tront of a national television audience — sometimes even a bit too much. Few things looked pretty for the Trojans on Saturday except for the final score: USC 13, Stanford 10.

Andre Heidari kicked a career-long 53-yard field goal with 2:30 remaining, J.R. Tavai forced a fumble to end the Cardinal's comeback bid and the 14th-ranked Trojans upended No. 13 Stanford in dramatic fashion again.

"I thinkit says a lot that we can come in against this team, in this environment, and the game not really going our way and not really in our favor, just for whatever reason, and find a way to win," Sarkisian said.

A game that featured an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty on Sarkisian for standing too close to the field, linebackerHayes Pullard getting ejected fortargeting and athletic director Pat Haden yelling at officials in a weird and wild sideline scene, ended with USC making all the big plays on the field in the closing moments.

With Stanford threatening to tie or take the lead, Tavai came from Kevin Hogan's blindside to jar the ball loose.

Scott Felix recovered at the Trojans' 26-yard-line.
