Richerson: We don't write any of our own music. We perform familiar old songs. Homemade Jam's music is not inspired from a single artist, but instead draws from numerous artists and various American roots styles, including bluegrass, folk, country and blues. Homemade Jam plays an eclectic mix of familiar old songs thatpeoplecan relateto,songs that will strike a chord in their

Go!: What are other rewards of getting together and playing?

Richerson: When we perform, we see people connecting with what we play. That energy drives us and keeps us going. That and the weekly practices at mom's. I can go there in a not good mood, but I find a couple hours of music is energizing.

'Miley Cyrus and Her Dead Petz' (Smiley Miley) At 92 minutes, the new Miley Cyrus album is really long, a double album by old-school standards that'll take up more of your time than a Serena Williams tennis match. (Although not as long as the Cyrus-hosted MTV Video Music Awards, thank God.) And for sure, the 23-song set does contain its share of indulgent stretches, most of which involve the 22-year-old former Hannah M ontanagoing on about how drunk, high, and horny she is.

Announced out of the blue at the recent VMA show, the album is available as a free streaming download at www.mileycyrus.com/ andherdeadpetz.

So"Dead Petz" is free from any pressure to please the pop marketplace.

Yet the album is still, even at its most willfully experimental, far from the formless affair you might expect. In fact, there's plenty of compelling music, starting with "Karen Don't Be Sad," a full-of-feeling ballad that would havebeen right athome on a prime Flaming Lips album like 'Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots."

No? Well, don't let that stanch your creativity — a poem written about a purple cow could net $100 in Baker City's ninth-annual Great Salt Lick Contest.

The "best purple cow poem" category is new this year, inspired

by Gelett Burgess' poem: "I never saw a Purple Cow, I never hope to see one; But I can tell you, anyhow, I'd rather see than be one."

'You don't have to have a block to enter, but you do have to read your own poem," said Whit Deschner, the mastermind behind the Great Salt Lick Contest/Auction/Benefit.

The story behind this event goes back more than 10 years when Deschner noticed a salt block that had been licked into a unique shape, sculpted by the most unlikely artists — deer.

He thought these artists deserved an art show — along with local livestock that lick salt

blocks.

"Not only were the animals creating these blocks not getting paid, but they were being eaten," he says.

The Great Salt Lick Contest and Auction was born.

This year, on Saturday, is the ninth-annual event in which people submit interesting salt blocks for judging, and then those are

What: An art contest and fundraiser. The art pieces are salt blocks that have been licked into creative sculptures by livestock and wildlife.

The ninth-annual Great Salt Lick Contest and Auction is Saturday in Baker City, with more than $1,000 in cash prizes up for grabs for the most interesting salt blocks. Proceeds from the auction of the blocks will go to the Parkinson's Center of Oregon at OHSU. auctioned with proceeds going to the Parkinson's Center of Oregon at Oregon Health and Sciences University.

About $60,000 has been raised overthe lasteightyears,and Deschner hopes this event will bring that number to $75,000.

Deschner, by the way, has quite the sense ofhumor — just take the name of the event: Great Salt Lick Hoof Arted Contest.

The evening begins at 6 p.m. at Crossroads Carnegie Art Center, 2020 Auburn Ave. in Baker City.

More than $1,000 in prize money is up for grabs in these categories:

There is some fine print to the rules: people licking blocks is not allowed. There may be DNA testing; mad cows will be given psychiatric treatment; cows using steroids will be canned.

Thirty-five blocks will be chosen for live auction; the rest will be sold through silent auction.

Submissions can be turned in — tradedfora new replacement block — at Oregon Trail Livestock Supply in Baker City and Richland Feed and Seed.

Entries can also be taken to Crossroads, but without a replacement block.

Salt Lick sculpture Many salt licks from past auctions can be seen on display at businesses around Baker City, and now a permanent bronze sculpture pays homage to the event.

It is located at Court Plaza in downtown and dedicated to Parkinson's awareness.

Barn dance kicks off old-time dancing season WHAT'

THE

Barn dance history Barn dance roots go back hundreds of years. The dances were popular in Ireland until the 1950s, and European immigrants brought the traditions to the United States.

Barn dances remain popular today throughout the United States.

The caller uses easy dances that everyone can join in. This usually involves traditional Irish and Scottish dancing, and can feature square dances, Contra dancing, English country dancing and country and western styles.

The National Barn Dance came to radio with old-time fiddling in 1924. George D. HayofWLS inChicago was the original host and announcer. Hay later moved to Nashville and launched theWSM Barn Dance, which became the Grand Ole Opry and remains on the air to this day.

Radio stations across the country jumped into the barn dance craze. Popular versions, especially in the 1930s, included the WWVA Jamboree in West Virginia, the Renfro Valley Barn Dance in Kentucky, the Louisiana Hayride, the Tennessee Jamboree and Ozark Jubilee.

Barn dancing also became famous through film. The most famous barn dance in film is probably the 1954 musical "Seven Brides for Seven Brothers," choreographed by Michael Kidd.

Today, barn dancing offers a community get together at which people socialize and celebrate.

"Some people come to the dances out of curiosity and say, 'I'll just sit and listen to the music.'

'The Orchardist' brings slow-burning plot e famihar Pacific Northwest setting is what prompted me to add "The Orchardist"e by Amanda Coplin to my to-read list. This book had my full attention right away, making me feel nostalgic.

In high school, I read the classics from Shakespeare and Greek mythology ithanks to Wishbone) to standard "bummer literature" i'The Pearl,""Of Mice And Men," "Ironweed" ...1 to cautionary tales set in the future i"1984,""Fahrenheit 451," etc.l To me, Amanda Coplin's writing is similar to Jack London and John Steinbeck. A harsh time, setting, life ... and yet absolutely compelling and beautifully described.

Set at the turn of the 20th century at the foothills of the Cascades, "The Orchardist" begins with the background of the main character, William Talmadge. William and his sister Elsbeth traveled with their widowed mother across Oregon, settling on the dry sideofthe Cascades and starting an orchard. William Talmadge now lives alone on that very land and brings his fruit in to town on market day as usual. He is robbed

as it possibly can.

What I loved about this book is exactly what I've heard others complain about. There is very little action and a lot happens in just a few sentences. Some storylines are left open, there didn't seem to be any"point" to the story, etc. Action sequences happen in a few words because in real life, they happen in a few seconds. The story lines left open to usare also leftopen to the characters — they don't have answers either. What is the point of the story? The same as the point of anyone's journey through life.

We all have a story and they matter — we matter. I love limited dialogue in books as much as I do in film. If this book were to be adapted to film, I'd hope it would be true to how it was written and have the feel of"All Is Lost" starringRobert Redford or"127 Hours" starring James Franco.

Those movies can't be passively watched, and I can't look away — same effect while reading this book. I thought about these characters long after I finished the last page.

If you are a Jack London or John Steinbeck fan, and captivated by internal dialogue and a slow burning plot, I highly recommend "The Orchardist." I'm very much looking forward to future novels

By Joe Juba

i

Game Informer Magazine r.

"Metal Gear" is a member of video gaming's old guard. It has been consistently popular since its inception in the '80s, which is a rare distinction it shares with revered names like "Mario" and "Zelda." Unlike its peers, "Metal Gear" has been telling a continuous story the whole time — a major strength and a strange weakness all at once. Invested fans adore the seriesforitsnarrative just as much as its tactical espionage action, but the sprawling story makes it intimidating for newcomers."Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain" is different; it puts the saga of Big Boss and his sons in the background, emphasizing dynamic gameplay and aplayer-directed approach to progression.

The story is still important, but it isn't the driving force in this installment. As Big Boss, you build an army and work against a villain named Skull Face iintroduced

Without frequent interruptions for exposition, you're free to immerse yourself in the addictive mission-based structure. The sense of freedom is great; you choose the activities and rewards that interest you, like extracting valuable prisoners, stealing resources,sabotaging communications. Getting into a rhythm is easy and fun, and I had plenty to keep me busy during my 45 hours of playing time.

The transition to an open world is generally smooth, though getting around isn't as easy as it could be.The fasttravelsystems are clunky and counterintuitive, which makes it hard to move easily fiom one objective to another. The inability to quickly get to where you need to be is a weird and unnecessary problem that other openworld titles solved years ago.

Apart from the larger world, "The Phantom Pain's" solid core mechanics are essentially the same as they were in"Ground Zeroes."

Thebiggestdifference is the addition of the buddy system, which allows you to take an ally with you on missions. I was initially worried this would dilute the sense of solo infiltration

iOS HYPER Hyper for the iPad is basically a video magazine. Each day about12 videos are hand picked by people who are video experts to be included in the day's "edition." Those picked range from 1 minute to as long as 20 minutes and tend to cover anything from tech to global issues.(Free)

Polka set to return to the mountains with

four-day festival A lively weekend of polka music and dancing will be enjoyed Sept. 24 through Sept. 27 at the 2015 Oregon Alpenfest held at Wallowa Lake. The 37th annual fun-filled celebration of Swiss and Bavarian culture, cuisine and liquid refreshment will take place at the historic Edelweiss Inn, nestled within the towering Wallowa Mountains, known as Oregon's Little Switzerland.

The only festival of its kind in Oregon, Alpenfest will headline Salzburger Echo, an internationally known band from Utah with the unusual specialty of Swiss alphorn playing.

"Although the band usually performs elsewhere onAlpenfest weekend, the musicians decided to give Wallowa County a try this year," says Alpenmeister ChuckAnderson.

The band brings the Alps to audiences, playing old world and contemporary folk music from the alpine regions of Switzerland,Germany and Austria.The band entertains with the 12-foot alphorns, Swiss cowbells and harmony yodeling as well as more traditional instruments.

Developed in the 19th century, the happy music of polka draws Alpine folk dancers into a party ofhigh energy, where toe-tapping, clappingand smilesareadded from the onlookers.

Popular Alpenfest entertainers, the Tirolean Dancers of Oregon, will bring their energetic style typical of southern Germany and adjoining countries. They hail fiom all over Oregon and Washington and areregulars atOktoberfests throughout the Pacific Northwest.

Erews, Eikes and Eands set for Friday WHAT'

Cycle O~on provides more than scenic rides In addition to an annual ride, Cycle Oregon also puts money into communities its rides travel through.

The Cycle Oregon Fund, developed through Cycle Oregon event proceeds since 1996, supports communities directly, providing annual grants to preserve special places in Oregon, promote bicycle safety and tourism and support community projects.

Since the fund's inception, Cycle Oregon has invested a total of $1.6 million throughout the state with more than $350,000 in the communities along this year's route. Projects range from $1,500 for bicycle racks in the downtown Baker City area to $50,000 for improvements to the Halfway Fairgrounds.

"Most people are aware that we put on the best bike ride in the country. But our organization's purpose is actually twofold," said Cycle Oregon's Executive Director Alison Graves. "We exist to showcase Oregon's lesserknown areas. And second, we work to create economic opportunities, such as our efforts to establish the Scenic Bikeways Program, which was recently recognized for generating $12 million in 2014 and enabling 150 jobs.

"We want to expose people to the special places around the state and give people the tools and the reasons to come back again.

And we want to do our part to support these communities, which are the heart and soul of Oregon."

Monica Bailey, president of the association, said it takes many helpers to bring these concerts to Baker City. '%e are totally a volunteer organization," she said.

Recently she discovered that the community might have a different ideaofwhatbeing a"member" entails when a woman said she'd like to join, but she can't sing or dance.

Bailey's response was this You don't have to — just come listen to the music."

The concert association contracts with Live On Stage to bring the performances to Baker City. '%e have musicians that are phenomenal," she said.

To help spread the love of music, theassociation givesthreestudent tickets and three adult tickets to m usic teachers atthelocalschools, enabling youth to attend for free.

'So kids in the communitycan be intruduced to different gemes of music," Bailey said.'%e'd reallylike younger kids to become members."

Baker Community Concerts is a nonprofit organization and relies on grants each year fiom charitable foundations.

'They've made it so we can continue," Bailey said.'%ithout the generosit y ofthoseorganizations, we wouldn't exist."

Most concerts cost more than $4,000 — and that doesn't count advertising, programs, tuning the piano, royaltiesand postage.

Bailey said donations are always welcome to support the concerts, and volunteers can help hand out programs,greetpeople,rentcushions and staff the CD table.

Pairing beers with the correct dishes M

Northeast Oregon eats WHERE I ATE:The Corner Brick, 1840 Main St, Baker City WHAT I ORDERED:Sizzlin' Salad THE VERDICT:Last week when I was in Baker City, a colleague and I decided to grab a quick lunch out. We decidedThe Corner Brick would be perfect.

It was within walking distance from the Baker City Herald's office and it offered us the opportunity to sit outside and enjoy the nice breeze and discuss our plans for the upcoming week. I asked our waitress what her favorite thing on the menu was. Her response was quick and to the point.

"The Sizzlin' Salad," she replied.

Fresh cut Romaine lettuce topped with tomatoes, cucumbers, olives and pasta salad, finished off with sauteed bell peppers, mushrooms, onions, cheddar cheese and choice of sauteed beef, chicken or shrimp.

I decided this was just what I was looking for, with beef, please. This salad was crisp, refreshing and the portion was the perfect amount to refuel in a hurry.

— Carolyn Thompson, regional circulation director

any people have their own opinion of what constitutes a"good" beer as well as what they believeto be"good"food.Even the non-beer drinkers can enjoy a nice beer with the right kind of food.

Considering there seems to be as many craft beers out there as stars in the sky, there could quite possibly be a beer for everyone.

And this could be your starting point.

Lighter colored beers like amber or palelagersand pilsners, pair nicely with salads, barbecue chicken or pork, and light seafood like cod or halibut. They also go well with fiied foods, popcorn, nachos, or chips and salsa. Similarly, one of ourmost popular types of beers served at Lefty's Taphouse iwith nearly 30 beers on tapl is the India Pale Ale iIPA1, which pairs nicely with the foods mentioned above as well as with Mexican dishes, oily fish, rich meats and

JULIE STOUT info@leftystaphouse.com @LeftysTaphouse burgers.

Fruity beers like hefeweizen and wheat beers go well with frtntdishes,salads,hearty breads and grains, rich seafood and beef brisket.

Moving to a more reddish tint

ofbeerwe have the amber ales and reds. These are fabulous with vegetablesthat arecaramelized and foods that are prepared and served with a red sauce. These are also great with barbecue pork like Lefty's pulled pork sandwiches.

Next we have brown ales, which are typically tasty in the fall and go well with many root vegetables and foods cooked in a peanut sauce. If you are planning one last barbecue outside, you might think about grilling up some juicy chicken breasts and serve it with your favorite brown ale.

Now for the dark beers — the portersand stouts.The porterclassified beers go well with many of our favorites of this area like

steak, burger and barbecue meats.

Along with stuffed mushrooms, sharp cheddar cheese and smoked foods. You will also enjoy porters with pumpkin pie and dark chocolate. Stouts usually pair well with hearty soups and stews, pot pies, and all the comfort food we enjoy in the winter months of Eastern Oregon. Creamy stouts, on the other hand, can satisfy your sweet tooth. These are fabulous with rich saucesand desserts.M yfavorite way to enjoy either of these beers isservingitoverice cream for a beer float.

Generally speaking, light beers tend to compliment lighter dishes while heavier beers tend to compliment heavier dishes.
