I'm into"Q" for many reasons. First of all, the title's great. It makes me think of an infinite barrage of questions coming from some perpetual line in a foreign land — which it kind of is. "Q"is an arts and entertain ment radio show produced and broadcasted by CBC Radio One that began in 2007. The current incarnation started on April 20 with a rebranding, a new host and a new theme song. It airs locallyin the afternoons on KTVR FM 90.3 here in La Grande, and is syndicated through Public Radio International. The invitingly quirky theme song was written by Bahamas, who won"songwriter of the year"
at last year's Juno Awards — Canada's equivalent to our Grammy's. It immediately identifies the spirit of"Q"when you hear it. It's perfect in its mix of playfulness, artistry and execution. Each episode is genuinely unique and takes on the personality of the interviewees, but is always thematically consistent. Though Canada-centric by nature, "Q" covers a wide range of culturally significant guests from all over the world.
Shad iShadrach Kabangol is the current host. He's a popular Canadian musician/rapper who has a thoughtful and comfortably casual approach to his interviews. You can hear his evolution as
an interviewer if you go back and listen to some of the early broadcasts. He's come a long way since he spoke with comedian/podcaster Marc Maron on his first show to his recent two-part in-depth interview with Adele. As he's grown as
host, so has"Q." It's intelligent without being pretentious, fun but not foolish and generally delivers what Shad said his goals for the show were. "Hopefully we can bring you good, rich, meaningful conversations as well as trivial, useless, funny things," he said. You can listen to all the back and current episodes at www.cbc.

Tom 3ones "Long Lost Suitcase" (S-Curve) "Long Lost Suitcase" continues Tom Jones' late-life effort to show he's more than just the purveyor of cheerfully cheesy pop hits like ''What's New Pussycat?" and"Delilah."Working for the third time with producer Ethan Johns, the 75-year-old Welshman again comes across as an Americana master rather than a Vegas showman. The music is rootsy and organic. The stark country balladry of Willie Nelson's "Opportunity to Cry"rubs up against the exuberant hoedown of"Honey Honey" ia duet with Irish spitfire Imelda Mayl. A down-home take on the Rolling Stones'"Factory Girl" segues into the raucous electric blues of Billy BoyArnold's "I Wish You Would,"with Jones flashing some of that old brio. Only Gillian Welch and David Rawlings'"Elvis Presley Blues" strains for effect — not Jones' empathetic reading orthe songitself but the arrangement, which is built on a pulsating riff that sounds uncharacteristically synthetic. But the album gets right back on track with the folk standard"He Was a Friend of Mine," in which just a soloacousti cguitarevocatively mirrors Jones' tender vocal. — Times News Service

Treasures hide in every corner at the Baker Heritage Museumenough that one could never see it all in one visit. And that, I've discovered,is the best way to tour Baker City's museum — go on multiple tours so you don't haveto hurry through in an attempt to see everything. This isalsothebestapproach ifyou have kids, who don't like to linger so much as try to cover as much ground as possible. ThankMly, kids age 12 and younger are free, so return visits are easy for those who live close. H avinggrown up in Baker City, I've made countless visits to the museum — on school tours, special events and now with my kids. One of our very favorite exhibits is a bit hidden, but it's worth the search to see rocks that glow. To get there, enter the CavinWarfel Collection and get lost in the rocks that two Baker City sisters began collectingin the 1930s. The collection — 18 tons worth of rocks, crystals and fossils — was donated to the museum in 1983. One big attraction, says museum director Lea Gettle, is the petrified specimen tempskya — an extinct tree-like fern. "A lotofpeoplecome justto see the tempskya," she said. The sisters collected rocks fiom around the United States and as far as South America. They also
traded specimens at shows. "They wanted an array of different collections," Gettle said. All the display cases that hold the rocks were originally inside their California home, she said. The sisters turned down an offer fiom the Smithsonian — $250,000 — in order to donate the collection to their hometown museum. "It really made our museum," she said."It put us on the map." Remember the special place inside the rock collection? In the far back of the rock rooms is a much smaller room with a door. In light, the rocks look ordinary. But close the door and turn off the light, and the black lights immediately transform the rocks into neon oranges, purples and yellows. Theserocks aremade ofspecial minerals that glow under a blacklight, Hoover said — minerals foundin Eastern Oregon. "A lot are ordinary rocks you can find around here," she said. The museum gift shop has resources on hunting rocks, but Mamie Cavin is a tough act to follow. However, heradvice ispreserved in the room that bears her name You get a bag of marbles and every time you pick up a rock tokeep,you throw away a marble. When you've lost all your marbles, you're a rock hound." Beyond the rock collection, the museum is divided into many different exhibits — "Honoring Those W ho HaveServed"featureslocal veterans, Paint Your Wagon pays homage to the movie filmed here in 1968, and the ranching corner recognizes our agricultural heritage. And there is more — much more. For the first time, the museum is open during the winter — Fridays
Museum and Saturdaysfrom 10 a.m. to3:30 p.m., plus Dec. 26-31. "For all the holiday season travelers," Gettle said. Also, tickets are now available for the museum's fundraiser "A Night at Old Auburn" that takes place from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. Feb. 27 from. Tickets are $30 and include dinner, live entertainment and casino-style games. iThe price increasesto $38 afterFeb.21.1 Tickets can be purchased at the museum, online at www.bakerheritagemuseum.com and at local businesses.

Post- Thanksgiving: a winter wasteland o it's the day after Thanksgiving, and it's my favorite time of the holidays...Leftover Day. I go to the fiidge and open the doors to ponder the vast array of gourmet goodies. I personally enjoy the standard leftover turkey sandwich with as many accoutrements as is feasible to cram between two slices of wheat bread. Apparently this concoction's name is a"Gobbler" sandwich, but I'd always simply known it as a leftover Thanksgiving. If I can get turkey, dressing and cranberry sauce all wedged in there it will suKce, but the trick is to still be able to eat it all without the need ofa drop cloth. But as the next few days progress, every instance of opening that fridge seems less likely to inspire foodie fervor as it is to instill diner's disgust. Those deviledeggs justdon'tdo itfor me anymore, and the green bean casserole seems to have moved on to a whole new color spectrum. So what do we do? We toss it all out. After being so"thankful" for our abundance the best we can do is discardperfectly good food. Roughly 133 billion pounds of food go uneaten each year in the U.S., according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Much of that foodlossstartsatthetop ofthe supply chain. Blemishedberriesgettossed at the farm, and warehouses dump foodthat'sno longerperfectly fresh. Then about half of wasted food gets thrown out by consumers buying, cooking and serving more food than we can eat. That includes in restaurants, grocery storesand food outletsthatprepare more than needed for their customer demand. For six months, filmmakers Jen Rustemeyer and Grant Baldwin vowed to eat only food entering the waste stream. They document their experiment in"Just Eat It: A Food Waste Story," a documentary
S
Northeast Oregon eats WHERE I ATE:The Lone Pine Cafe, 1825 Main St., Baker City WHAT I ORDERED:Roasted tapenade sandwich THE VERDICT:A friend recommended the special — a roasted tapenade sandwich. It's loaded with roasted cauliflower, roma tomatoes, garlic, balsamic caramelized onions, green olives, chevre and mixedgreens on German rye bread. I don't necessarily seek out vegetarian options — I'm just as likely to order a burger as a vegetable-based entree. However, I really like a meal with flavor, and this roasted tapenade sandwich is bursting with all sorts of flavor, from sweet onions to the salty olives. And this is the first time I've actually liked eating goat cheese (that's the chevre, which added a subtle creaminess to the roasted vegetables). Across the table, my mom had coconut curry soup and I had to have a taste. Again, it was full of flavor — a creamy-style soup with spices, garbanzo beans and chunks of potatoes. The restaurant is now open seven days a week, from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Their number is 541-523-1805. — Lisa Britton, Go! staff

that is now available on Amazon Prime and iTunes. In six months, they spent only $200 on grocer-
ies and acquired nearly $20,000 of usable, safe, nutritional and sometimes gourmet food. So why the enormous waste? Who's to blame? We are. All of us — the consumers. We expect the bestlooking tomato atthe store, so we dig through the bin to find those few perfect tomatoes. And the others? Well they eventually get tossed by the market. Peach farmers in California have between 30 and 70 percent of their peaches wasted because of only cosmeticissues. The waste is all because we, as consumers, go to the deli and expect the fried chicken to have been cooked within the last few minutes or we think it's not"acceptable." But we expect those displays to be full and stocked all day long, because you never know when we might want to buy a half gallon of mac & cheese at 7 a.m. or a fresh glazed doughnut at midnight. And the saddest part is our blind faith in date labels. Those date labels, especially the "best before" are only about peak freshness — it has absolutely nothing to do with safety. Most food that is wasted in America today has nothing to do with its safeness or edibility, but ratherthat itisnotatitsprim e freshness or visual appeal. Many consumers think that's the absolute last moment that they can possibly consume that item, and it's leading to a lot of waste.
And I'm sure you ask,'What aboutfood banks and donation centers?" Laws in most cases don't allow those foods prepared by hand at agrocertobedonated to food banks. Also, foods that have been heated and then cooled in most cases are offlimits. That means your local grocery store is likely throwing away 15 to 30 whole roasted chickens a day. That scratch bakery likely has perfectly good, but maybe slightly staled, day-old bread going in the trash bin. If we want to waste less, we have to start thinking more about personal use and surplus. Only buy what food we can eat within the next few days. For those who may live further from the stores or are unable to buy in such small quantities, using local resources to dispersetheirsurplusisthe best
route. Local churches and community groups in most cases will provide you a list of those in need. Oregon Food Bank works closely with local grocers and retailers to pick up donations of nutritious, perishable food including milk, meat, produce and other dairy products. These donations are given to five local food banks here in La Grande itself as well as in Elgin, Cove, Union and North Powder. And if you want to keep it simple, try using your Facebook posts next time you have leftovers. Simply take a photo and offer your goodies eitherforfree tofriendsor trade for their leftover lunch. Because during this holiday season we all know how much we hate to seegood food end up atourwaist or as waste.
