Good Day Wish To A Subscriber

YOIEOB EGOHBOIIS IHYOY HEABEA

S. John Collins/ Baker City Herald

This strip of destruction includes one of the houses lost at Stices Gulch, center of photograph, and a shop in background.

Eloise Dielman once said she liked to do her work"quietly and sneakily," but her influence Di elman on a generation of Baker High School English students and on aspiring writers of allageswa sfar too greatto be hidden.

Dielman died Monday in Baker City after a six-year battle with ovarian cancer.

She was 75.

Eloise spent her life teaching others.

Even in death, she couldn't pass up the opportunity to offer one last lesson.

In closing her own obituary, which her husband of 55 years, Gary, said she wrote just last week, Eloise directed other women to a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website detailing symptoms of ovarian cancer.

Go to www.cdc.gov/cancer/ovarian/basic info/ symptoms.htm for more information. Early detection is key to a successful outcome in treatment.

That last lesson caps a lifetime of teaching and inspiring others. Dielman was honored as Baker County's Legacy Woman of the Year in 2003 inrecognition ofher effortsasan educator, a writer and a community leader.

Eloise's prowess with words has touched many lives — from teaching students to editing manuscripts to writing descriptions for the Baker County Library catalog to ensure people can find the book they want.

Dwight W. Rosin, 66, was killed in the single-vehicle accident just before 10 p.m. near Milepost321,about 15 m iles southeast of Baker City, according to Oregon State Police.

Rosin was riding a 2013 Harley-Davidson eastbound when it drifted off the shoulder for an unknown reason, according to police. The motorcycle hit a concrete barrier, throwing Rosin onto the freeway. Police believe Rosin was hit by at least one vehicle traveling on the freeway.

TURNING BACK THE PAGES 50 YEARS AGO from the Democrat-Herald September 9, 1965 Total enrollment for Baker Dist. 5J schools, Wednesday at 2,611, should be near last year's figure of 2,634 in the next few weeks, School Superintendent Dr. James R. Evans advised today.

These figures include high school, junior high, and elementary school enrollments.

Evans said the figures are being released earlier this year on beginning enrollments, and more students will be expected to start school in the next several weeks.

25 YEARS AGO from the Democrat-Herald September 10, 1990 If you telephone Benj. Franklin Savings and Loan today in Baker City you'll be told you've reached BankAmerica.

BankAmerica, the nation's second largest bank, took over the Portland-based Benj. Franklin on Friday.

10 YEARS AGO from the Baker City Herald September 9, 2005 Forget where you stashed your fleece sweater back when spring finally graced Baker County with its warm breath?

Better start searching.

The chilliest weather in three months is poised to invade this weekend.

On Saturday and Sunday the temperature might struggle to surpass 60 degrees, a level it has exceeded, and with at least several degrees to spare, for the past 72 days in a row.

ONE YEAR AGO from the Baker City Herald September 10, 2014 The Baker City Council votedTuesday to give Baker County an additional $15,000 to hire more workers at the police and fire dispatch center.

Baker County operates the Baker County Consolidated Dispatch Center, which handles radio communication for the city's police and fire departments.

Sheila Thompson, the dispatch center's director, said the center's been having staffing issues for about four and a half years due to a general lack of funding.

"I like the decision they made tonight," she said after the meeting.

"She said,'I just want you to write.' She always encouraged you," Ritch said."That writing group was really importantto her,tokeep people writing their stories."

Their regular meeting place was the library, but in the past month the group met at Eloise's home.

"She made us promise to keep it going. We're going to try," Ritch said."She'll never be replaced — she left a tremendous big hole. She became a very, very dear friend of mine."

Denny Grosse joined the writing group four years ago, and also worked with Eloise in the Baker County Historical Society.

Emery recalls visiting with Eloise after she lost her hair during cancer treatments.

"She wore her cute little stocking caps," Emery said.

"And when her hair grew back, it was so pretty."

In addition to her own way with words, Eloise fostered a love of writing for many other local writers, including a small group that meets once a week.

over a in us The saddest part of the following question is that we even need to ask it.

Does Oregon's state government care more about empowering federal bureaucrats than it does about the ranchers and farmers whose operations contribute billions of dollars annually to the state economy?

We don't blame the Oregon Cattlemen's Association for posing that query.

The issue revolves around which waterways the federal government has the authority to regulate under the 1972 Clean Water Act. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in late June opined that its authority under the Clean Water Act extends to "waters of the United States" rather than only to major rivers and lakes definedas "navigable."

This is a significant change.

Waters of the United States, based on the EPA's proposed definition, could include tributaries to navigable waterways.

The definition is suKciently murky, moreover, that it's not implausible to believe the EPA could claim jurisdiction over seasonal waters such as irrigation ditches.

Ranchers and farmers, naturally, worry that the EPA's potentially expanded authority could threaten their access to water, a commodity every bit as vital to a ranch or farm as it is to a person.

Thirteen states, most in the West, are challenging the EPA's definition in court. In late August a federal court in North Dakota (one of the 13 plaintif states) granted an injunction preventing the EPA from using its definition of waters of the United States to enforce the Clean Water Act in those states.

We're disappointed that Oregon is not among those 13 states.

But that's hardly the worst of it.

Oregon Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum didn't merely decline to join those states in defending a vital industry against an overzealous executive branch, which insists on redefining its jurisdiction even though the U.S. House of Representatives both this year and last passed a resolution calling for the EPA to withdraw such a proposal.

Instead, Rosenblum went along with six other states and the District of Columbia in filing a legal motion supporting the EPA's definition and its expanded authority to regulate water.

Rosenblum did so with the support of Gov. Kate Brown and oKcials from the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality and Division of State Lands, said Ellen Klem, a spokeswoman in the Attorney General's oKce. We're not suggesting that Rosenblum is obligated to side with the agriculture industry on every legal matter.

But neither did she have to use state resources to bolster the EPA's case.

By doing so Rosenblum, whether intentionally or not, implies either that ranchers' and farmers' concerns about the EPA's broadened authority are exaggerated, or worse, that such fears are legitimate but that giving the EPA more regulatory power is worthwhile even if one of Oregon's most important industries sufers as a result.

Two hundred words aren't enough to presentthe evidence that I've followed state laws and regulations. In the seven months of service I'd given on Council at the time the lawsuit was filed, I don't know how I could have been so influential that I'd be a main reason for filing the suit. I do know there wasn't any plotting amongst the three council members not married to former mayor Findley.

In short, my response would've sounded a lot like, "nuh-uh," which just isn't very informative. So I chose to respond to allegations Ms. Findley made in a letter she mailed to Sumpter voters.

Pot bans might mean economic boon Editorial kom The Oregonian: At this time last year, Oregonians were talking about the possibility oflegalizing recreational pot.These days, they're looking at marijuana milestones.

In less than a month, adults will be able to buy small amounts of recreational weed atmedicaldispensaries, a stopgap measure that will help meet demand until the retail system is fully up and running. In November, legalization supporters will celebrate the one-year anniversary ofthepassage of Measure 91. And while the implementation of the measure has had its rough patches, a third milestone validates the 847,865 Oregonians who voted "yes" last year.

That milestone actually belongs to Washington, where votersbacked legalization in 2012. Still, it's a useful reminder of what Oregonians would be doing in coming years if Measure 91 hadn't passed: They'd be buying a lot ofrecreational marijuana at retailers on the Washington side of the Columbia River and driving it home. This phenomenon is no surprise and was, in fact, a compel-

ling argument for supporting Measure 91. Still, the numbers are both instructive and reassuring.

The milestone is the releaseoftheinaugural report on the implementation of I-502. In addition to legalizing pot, the initiative directed the Washington State Institute for Public Policy to conduct a progress report every two years, beginning in 2015.

The first report, released this month, is more than 50 pages long, but one particular section is likely to be of significant interest to Oregonians.

It details recreational marijuana sales by county &om July 2014 through June 2015.

And if we didn't know better, we'd conclude that people in Klickitat County spend most of their time stoned.

At $65.80, per-capita marijuana sales were higher in Klickitat County during this period than in any other county, and by a large margin. We suppose it's possible that Klickitat residents smoke a whole lot of pot, but it's more likely that much of it was bought by people &om Cascade Locks, Hood River, The Dalles and those passing through Goldendale on their way back to Oregon on

Serenawinssister duel,twomatches Emmett to s fromcomsletingGrandSlamswees Bull o sa ain

By Howard Fendrich

APTennis Wnter

NEW YORK — For stretchesofthe 27th edition of Williams vs. Williams, Venus gave Serena all she could handle.

And when Serena took control down the stretch to emerge with a 6-2, 1-6, 6-3 victory in a well-played U.S. Open quarterfmal, allowing her to continue pursuing the first calendar-year Grand Slam in more than a quartercentury, a smiling Venus wrapped both arms around her little sister for a warm hug at the net and whispered, "So happy for you."

"Obviously we are very, very tough competitors on the court," Serena said later, "but once the match is over, the second it's done, you know, we're sisters, we're roommates, and we're all that."

Serena called their unique sibling rivalry"the greatest story in tennis," and who would argue? A couple of kids taught by their dad on cement courts in Compton, California, making it all the way to the top.

With two more match wins, the No. 1-ranked Serena would become the first player since Steffi Graf in 1988 tocollectallfour Grand Slam titles in a single season.

Plus, if she can win what would be her fourth U.S. Open in a row, and seventh overall, she would equal Graf with 22 major championships, the most in the professional era and secondmost ever behind Margaret Court's 24.

"That would be huge, not just for me, but for my fam-

EMMETT — Baker dropped a nonleague volleyball match at Emmett Tuesday, falling 25-13, 25-22, 26-24.

Emmett had defeated the Bulldogs in four games a week ago on the Baker floor.

Coach Warren Wilson said the Bulldogs had too many errors— arecurring problem sofarthis season.

"In the first set we had too many errors for points," Wilson said."Then in sets two and three we cleaned it up and had our chances."

Kaeli Flanagan and Jordan Rudolph each finished with five kills and Summer Phillips had three.

Makenna Bachman had seven assists and Dani McCauley six.

Madi Elms served 100 percent with two ace serves.

When a reporter imphed he wasn't sure whether Venus really wanted to beat Serena, the reply was drenched with incredulity.

"I tried," Venus replied. cWere you there?"

EUGENE — Oregon's defense needs to quickly address season-opening missteps with the muchanticipated visit to No. 5 Michigan State looming on Saturday.

The seventh-ranked Ducks defeated Eastern Washington 61-42, and in addition to those six touchdowns, the Big Sky's Eagles amassed 549 total yards.

Afterward, defensive coordinator Don Pellum said pointedly:"Overall it's just not where it needs to be. I think we know that.

I think everyone knows that."

The Ducks' vulnerability came mostly against the pass. Eastern Washington's starting quarterback Jordan West and backup Reilly Hennessey threw for a combined 438 yards.

Receiver Cooper Kupp caught 15 passes for 246 yards — both Autzen Stadium records — and three touchdowns.

Oregon's secondary lost threestartersfrom last season when the Ducks went 13-2 and to the championship game of college football's first playoffs.

Three of Oregon's starters atdefensiveback from last season have moved on: Ifo Ekpre-Olomu, Erick Dargan and Troy Hill.

Sophomores Chris Seisay and Arrion Springs started at corner for the Ducks against Eastern Washington. At safety, sophomore Tyree Robinson made his second career start. Junior safety Reggie Daniels is

The notice also has a number to contact if the homeowner has questions about the fire damage survey or needs to reportdamage thatisnot readily apparent.

The notices — which are left after any appraisal visit, not just these special post-fi rereappraisals— have another purpose.

All that is left of the four outbuildings are piles of sheet metal and unrecognizable debris.

Where the home stood, there was a section ofbrick wall standing sentry over a foundation littered with more sheet metal, burned and

Lepley said Lay will have a significantly reduced tax bill.

It had no visible damage to any structures including a largemetal garage where the fire stopped only a few feet away.

In spite ofhow close the fire got, the paint was not blistered on the building and equipment next to it had no fire damage.

Lepley said the property would probably have no reduction in value because no structures were lost.

"It looks like everything is about like it was ithe last time it was assessed),"he sard.

Although the fire scorched hundreds of trees and affected the views in the gulch, Lepley said appraisersgenerally don'tconsider those factors.

In an area such as Stices Gulch, there aren't frequent propertysales,so it'stough to have something to compare property values to, he sard.

Lepley speculated that the fire might reduce selling prices in the gulch, but it wouldn't be evident unless properties there actually sell.

Lepley said Savage might take a look at how properties within and near the burn have had their values affected aesthetically.

"For specific structure damage or loss, iAI be easier to make an adjustment to property values," Lepley said."iStaff) will have to get together to see if anything else is warranted."

Lepley had the appraisal cards/files with him for the approximately 20 properties he was surveying Tuesday.

They contained details that indicated the location of the primary residence and other structures on the property. ''We need to know where structures are or were," he said."It might not be readily apparent that there was a building there. If the owner

— MIKER. DEAR MIKE R.: I often share with my clients that, as an owner, there are only four ways to permanently exit your business.

The first option is to sell outright; you walk out of your company for the last time and the money someone paid you for the business is in your bank account.

The second option is to be removed because you are no longer fit, mentally or otherwise, to own the company.

This is what happened to Donald Sterling.

The third option is that one morning you wake up and you announce your immediate retirement.

It's the kind of call Queen Elizabeth will maybe make to Prince Charles someday.

But Charles is nearly 67 and has been sitting by the phone since his mother turned 65.

Are you going to have your son wait 24 years or longer for his call?

The fourth option is to be wheeled out laying on a gurney with a white sheet covering you on a one way trip to the Coroner's Offrce.

When this happens, someone needs to be ready to step up and take charge of the business.

WesCom News Service

Licensed child care providers operating out of their own homes in Oregon are now facing unannounced visits from the state. And although some local providers feel state rules like these have become increasingly strict overtheyears,othersfeel unaffected by the change.

The state's Early Learning Council approved the rule change from announced to unannounced visits earlier this year, according to Kathleen Hynes, legal and compliancedirectorfor the state's

Early Learning Division.

Registered family child care, the licensing level affected by the change, has to be in the living quarters of the provider and can have up to 10 children in the home. The next level up, certified family child care providers, who are also usually in their own home but can care for more children, have to meet square footage minimums and require more training.

Then there are certified centers, which are larger-scale child

care businesses. These other levels oflicensed child care already had unannounced visits.

The change, Hynes said, "is an opportunity really to see how the providerisdoing and give some reassurance to parents."

Some parents want their children in a home setting, as opposedtoa child care center.

Because in-home care is smaller in scale, those businesses have fewer requirements, said Hynes, whose division is under the state Offrce of Child Care.

"It's really a trade-ofF and it's a preference," she said.cWe always have ongoing discussions on how to improve health and safety for Oregon's children."

A number of Oregon child care providers see the sense in unannounced visits, even if they are a bit unnerving. Brandy Mills, 35, opened her business, Lollipop Kids Daycare, in 2007 in her home in northeast Bend. Since then, she said,cThe rules are getting stricter and stricter."

"It is very stressful," Mills said, on knowing that a state inspector could be coming by for a monitoring visit any day. Mills, who usually cares for about six children, said she knows the state standards well but acknowledged she SeeChanges / Page 2B

• Self-taught baker dreams big with opening ofher own business

ENTERPRISE — Eva Herold has been creating delicacies in her certified home kitchen for nearly three years — pies, cakes, scones, wedding delicacies and cupcakes.

Herold was inspired to create delicacies since she was "very young," helping her mother prepare family dinner.

She learned the art of desserts from her grandmother.

"Gran began teaching me dessert baking when I was in the thirdgrade,"Herold said.

That began her journey into culinary creativity of sweets.

From then on, Herold was given the honor of preparing desserts fordinners,special events and potlucks.

"It was a great opportunity to master the art ofbaking," Herold said.

She recalled as ayoung girl attemptingtoredesign recipes without the understanding ofthesciencebehind dessert recipes. Herold has never been to culinary school. She is all "self taught,"creating all ofher edible art pieces fiom scratch.

"I was not going to give up," she said.

So in her home 25 minutes from Elgin, Herold began creating her own recipes with success.

"I really got into the art, the design, the craft of the fine baking and making it beautiful," she said.

Michelle Bloker/Forwescom News Service

Eva Herold stands outside her business, SugarTime Bakery, at106W. Main St. in Enterprise. Herold is waiting for the final equipment in order to open the doors.

Eva andherfamily moved to Wallowa County almost three years ago. eWe all went to a welcoming gathering with the other families that live in the complex. Of course I brought dessert," Herold said."Everyone was talking about how good it was. I told them that creating dessertswas a passion of mine and that I would love to have a business. They all encouraged me to get my home kitchen certified and start producing my craft for the community. I told them that I had looked into it in Boise, Idaho, and it was too much. I startedinvestigating how to get certified here through the U.S. Department of Agriculture. I found that I could do it. I talked to my mom about the prospectand told her that I just didn't know. Mom told me dream big."

Recently she took an online health and safety course through the state that included instruction on how infants should be placed in a crib. Mills said reviewing the rules reminded her of the specificity of the details: no cribbumpers,bottlesorpacifiers allowed.

"Some of this stuff just isn't realistic," Mills said, who's also a mother of two."I don't mind rules to a certain extent."

Hynes pointed out it was only about 15 years ago that the state began licensing registered family child care providers.

Before that,she said, therewas justpaperwork — registration without inspection.

"As you can imagine, there was some resistance to that all those years ago," Hynes sald.

"Iseethenecessity ofit," Wren said, and although it took her three months to get registered, she's glad she's back in business after her break."I really enjoy this. I love working with the kids.

They're awesome."

Lisa Mathis, 45,provides child care in her home in northwest Redmond, currently for eight children.

She's been a provider for 22 years.

In southwest Bend, Jody Zahniser has been providing childcare for 10 years. But she doesn't feel an impact from the change because she was already enrolled in a USDA healthy food program, whose inspectors can stop by unannounced. Zahniser said her experience with the state's 0$ce of Child Care has been"very positive."

"It's about teachable moments, it's not about anything that's trying to be negative, or anything like

that," Zahniser said.

Hynes, with the state, also said she believes licensing specialistsaren'toutto condemn.

'They're coming out to find them doing things right," Hynes said, adding the inspectors realize registered family child care providers live where they work."The No. 1 is safety of children."

Hynes said she heard in community forums before the rule change that some child careproviders looked atthe idea of unannounced visits as a way of proving to parents they consistently offer care thatmeets state standards in a home setting.

"It's another way to tell parents they're providing quality care," Hynes said.

BOSTON — Courting unions on Labor Day, President Barack Obama denounced Republicans for a"constant attack on working Americans" and said he was using his executivepower toforcefederal contractors to give paid sick leave to their employees.

Obama was met with resounding applause at a major union rally and breakfast in Boston on Monday when he said he had signed the executive order aboard Air Force One as he flew in to mark Labor Day. He said Republicans who claim the mantle of m iddle-cl assprotectorsare talking big, but they"have to walk the walk."

Obama satd opponents of his economic policies "won't letfactsor evidence getin their way."

'You~ust watt, you look up at the sky and prosperity will come raining down onus from the top of whatever high-rise in New York City," he said sarcastically."But that's not how the economy works."

He added that the GOPs mindset has been"wrecking the economy for a long, long time."

The Labor Day gesture to workers' groups came as Obama works to smooth over tensions with the labor movement over his trade agenda. Major unions are opposing Obama's push for sweeping new trade deals with Asia and Europe, with some threatening to work against Democrats who votedtosupportthose talks in Congress. Unions have warned that the deals could lead tothe widespread job elimination. Obama has signed a law providing money to retrain workers if their jobs get shipped overseas.

Under the executive order, employees working on federalcontractsgain the right to a minimum ofone hour ofpaid leave for every 30 hours they work. Stretched out over 12 months, that's up to seven

days per year. The order will allow employees to use the leaveto care forsick relatives as well, and will affect contracts starting in 2017 — just as Obama leavesoffice.

Business groups said Obama's order would make it harder for small businessesto retain federalcontractors and could hinder economic growth.

"Once again President Obama is using the federal procurement system to do something it was never designed to do: usurp the legislative authority of Congresstodetermine appropriate workplace policies," said Randy Johnson, senior vice president of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.

The White House wouldn't specify the cost to federal contractors to implement the executive order. The Labor Department said any costs would be off setby savings that contractors would see as a result oflower attrition rates and increased worker loyalty, but produced nothing to back that up.

Vice President Joe Biden echoed Obama's theme in a march with an influential labor leader, AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka, who introduced Biden in Pittsburgh as a"brother" and "achampion ofworking men and working women."

A few along the parade route chanted "run, Biden, run"in a reference to Biden's ongoing deliberations about whether to run forpresident in 2016.

In Boston, Obama was flankedby prominent Democrats such as Sen. Elizabeth Warren and a giant banner reading "Workers and Community" in red, white and blue. Labor leaders Randi Weingartenand Mary Kay Henry joined Obama for the flight on Air Force One. In thecorridorsofthehotel hosting thebreakfast,boxes ofcampaign signs could be spotted bearing the name of Democrati cpresidential candidate Bernie Sanders, who opposes the trade deals.
