A 500-horsepower V-8 engine from a Corvette motor moves this Harley-Davidson Boss Hoss motorcycle owned by Frank and Debra Saniti of Boring, Ore. They spentThursday morning cleaning and polishing the bike at Baker High School in preparation for Hells Canyon Motorcycle Rally, which continues through Sunday. Usually touring on two wheels, the Sanitis traveled by motor home and a trailer for their first-time participation at the Baker City event. "This is a great town. We love it!" Frank says. People are friendly, the city and streets are clean and the historic aspect is incredible, he said.

The number of motorcyctes might not be the only record set this weekend in Baker City. How about tents? The grassyfieldsaround Baker High School resemble nothing so much the camp firefighters assemble when a big blaze is going. Steve Folkestad, who with his brother, Eric, started the Hells Canyon Motorcycle Rally, expects as many as 8,000 riders to converge on Baker City this weekend. A goodly percentage of that number was already here this morning, based on the frequency of Harley V-Twin reverberations bouncing off downtown buildings. Although motorcycles will be parked along Main Street iclosed to other trafllcl all weekend, the official show starts at 7 p.m. Saturday.

Tammie and Brian Andrus set up camp at Baker High School with a minimum of necessities, but an abundance of humor Thursday morning. The riders from Reno, Nev., attended the 2013 Hells Canyon Motorcycle Rally and say they plan to come back annually. "You actually get to ride here," Brian said. Tammie agreed, saying, "It's more about riding and not partying."

The Baker City Council session Tuesday night pretty much played out as expected for two of the key participants. Both former Mayor Richard Langrell and new mayor Clair Button said there weren't any major surprises. The meeting at City Hall showcased a showdown of sorts between councilors who sought to strip Langrell ofhis title as mayor, and those who supported him remaining as mayor at least through the end ofhis current two-year term, which expires in January 2015. On a 4-3 vote the council decidedtorescind Langrell's titleand,in a separatemove, chose Button as mayor. In Baker City government, the mayor is not elected by the people but chosen by the members of the Council. "It was completely expected," Langrell said of the council's decision.

TURNING BACK THE PAGES 50 YEARS AGO from the Democrat-Herald July 11, 1964 Photo: Thanks "Mr. Baker" — Dick Sheehy (L.), president of the Baker Little League, offers a handshake of thanks to Leo Adler for a $5,000 contribution toward the construction of a new baseball field that will accommodate Babe Ruth and Junior Legion baseball. At right isWade Williams, who spoke briefly at the fourth anniversary of Little League in Baker ceremony at Wade Williams field Friday evening during which a letter from Adler was read by Sheehy announcing the donation. The new field, which will have lights, covered grandstand and a football field in the outfield area, will be built in the area north of the present Armory Field, according to Little League officials. 25 YEARS AGO from the Democrat-Herald July 12, 1989 Big things are happening in the Baker area these days, but Bakerites may be thinking too small about the future of their downtown. Brian Scott, director of the Oregon Downtown Development Association (ODDA), ended a two-day visit to Baker with that analysis Tuesday. Scott said Baker may miss out on the tourism boom associated with the Oregon Trail Interpretive Center if the city does not begin preparing now. "You've got to start thinking bigger," he told a luncheon audience at the Royal Cafe. "If you wait to do anything until the interpretive center is open, it could all pass you by. I see a lot of enthusiasm in this room. Get at it; get going." 10 YEARS AGO from the Baker City Herald July 12, 2004 Baker County's response to domestic violence has changed for the better in the sixyears since the Governor's Council on DomesticViolence last visited Baker City. Dale Penn, Marion County district attorney and a longtime council member, recalled that in1998, agencies weren't working well together and several community members met privately with the council to express their concerns. On a return visit to Baker City Friday, the council met with about 50 people, including representatives of those agencies that help families in crisis, during a public hearing at the Geiser Grand Hotel and Restaurant. "It's exciting to be back here a second time and hear positive things," Penn said. ONE YEAR AGO from the Baker City Herald July 19, 2013 A federal judge has denied two environmental groups' request to block the Wallowa-Whitman National Forest from offering two timber sales in Baker County this summer. In a decision released Wednesday, U.S. District Judge Marco A. Hernandez rejected the request for a preliminary injunction on the Snow Basin project. The Hells Canyon Preservation Council of La Grande and the Blue Mountains Biodiversity Project of Fossil sued the Forest Service in December 2012.

• Several breeds have proved eA'ective at keeping away coyotes, cougars and bears Katy Nesbitt WesCom News Service

LOSTINE — The relationship between humans and dogs dates back centuries. One of the first uses of dogs in civilization was for protection oflivestock and later of humans.Guard dogs remain an integral part of raising goats and sheep in Wallowa County. Skye Krebs and his son, Cale, graze their sheep around Ione in the Columbia River Basin in the late winter and early spring and move them to Wallowa CountyinJune forapproximately six months. The Krebs have raised sheepforseveralgenerations and rely on guard dogs to protecttheirbands. Skye Krebs said he uses a varietyofdifferentbreeds including Pyrenees, originally &om Spain and France and Kangals, a breed &om Turkey. Of awide variety ofguard or "sheep" dogs used to protect livestock used throughout Europe and into Turkey, there are a lot of similarities. Most are white, which makes them easy to distinguish from wolves. In the past century in Eastern Oregon, guard dogs have been used to protect against bears, cougars and coyotes, but historically in Europe they were also used to keep wolves away from livestock. Krebs said he uses two to four dogs per band of sheep, as theyare available. "Dogs come and go; when I need a new dog I call a neighbor for another pupit's like a'free trade" agreement," Krebs said. 'They patrol all the time. When they see a predator they bark — they are more of a deterrent than a lethal control. When a cougar hears a bark, the dog/cat thing runs

Larry Davis and Nicole Bellows graze goats for noxious weed control throughout the Northwest. This summer their goats are battling leafy spurge along Parsnip Creek and Leap Road north of Lostine in Wallowa County. Guard dogs protect the goats at night when they are bedded down from predators — primarily cougars and coyotes. Guard dogs are effective against bears as well. Time will tell if they are a good deterrent against wolves.

Around their farm, especially in the spring when the goatskid,coyotescome close to the herd. Bellows said one got into the goats. Ringo caught a coyote, slammed it to the ground and laid on it, but didn't kill it. The guard dogs, which outweigh coyotes by as much as 60 pounds, can easily kill a coyote. Guard dogs expand their territory &om their home range and can chase a predatorformiles.Davis said their dogs have been gone for as long as two days on a chase. Two years ago when a coupleoftheirdogswe re gone and later seen along Highway 82 between Lostine and Enterprise, Davis said he suspects they were chasing a cougar — one was seen in their neighbors corrals around the same time. In June, Davis was grazing outside of Lenore, Idaho. One night he said he heard the dogs bark and then fall silent. "It's a bummer to get any kind of predator near the herd, but that's the main reason to have guard dogs," said Davis. Bellows said, 'We love our dogs and couldn't do our job without them. They are totally essential."

EDITORIAL

rewin some n i eren Baker County has long been known for its ranches, farms and orchards that produce the staples of an all-American meal. Beef. Potatoes. Wheat. Peaches and huckleberries for a dessert cobbler. But the county is also starting to round out the local menu with a selection of beverages with which adults can complement their dinners. We have a pair of breweries in Barley Brown's and

Bull Ridge. Travis Cook and Jacki and Lance Adams are growing wine grapes near Keating and Richland. Most recently, Tom Hutchison submitted an application to Baker City for an operation that would malt barley and potentially other grains, a key ingredient in brewing beer. Hutchison, who hopes to start malting grain this fall, plans to sell his product to both of Baker City's breweries and to others around the region. Baker County boasts all the raw materials needed not only to make fine beer and wine, but also distilled spirits. We have cold, pure water. Our climate and soils are well-suited for growing grains for malting. Other potential ingredients available within our borders include peppermint (flavoring for schnapps), juniper trees (the berries give gin its distinctive taste and aroma), and potatoes (the root ingredient in

some types of vodka). Brewing and distilling might not ever rival beef cattle or alfalfa among Baker County's agricultural larder. But diversification ought to benefit the county's bottom line, and its reputation as a purveyor of fine

GUEST EDITORIAL THE (BEND) BULLETIN ON MEDICAL MARIJUANA Medical marijuana is supposed to make people better. But Oregon is not doing enough to ensure it is safe. Tom Burns, the director of pharmacy programs for the Oregon Health Authority, said last week that because there is no certification or testing of the labs that test medical pot,"I'm just not sureIcan assure the productissafe." He added:"I thinkit puts patients' health at risk." State law requires marijuana sold by retailers to be tested for pesticides, mold and mildew. There are labs that do that testing. But the state doesn't have the authority tocertify ortestthe labsto ensure they meet testing standards.

Does that seem like sufficient safety controlsfora drug?Not to us. M ost drugs are treated fardifferentlyunder the law.The Food and Drug Administration inspects foreign and domestic drug manufacturing plants. Italso samples and testsdrugs from stores, warehouses and manufacturing sites. There's no guarantee that the FDA's testing catches all contamination or problems, but Oregon's standards for medical marijuana seem downright lackadaisical by comparison. Rep. Peter Buckley, D-Ashland, who authored the legislation that expanded medical marijuana to stores, told The Bulletin he did not intend to withhold

authority to regulate marijuana-testing labs. And he plans on fixing it in the next legislative session. He says the main goal was to establish"safe access" for patients who may have had difficulty getting access. That's all very nice. And, of course, no drug is ever risk-free. But in his effort to swiftly pass his legislation and get patients"safe access, "Buckley failed to provideeven rudimentary protection forpatients thatthe drug issafefrom contaminants. The Oregon Health Authority proudly proclaims on its website that"multiple states have requested information on Oregon's program touse asa m odelfor their own medical marijuana initiatives and registration systems."We hope they do abetterjob ofprotecting patients.

ne ca, an nine ears o motorc c e mania Iremember theday the man with the unusual last name phoned to tell me a fantastic tale about motorcycles and Baker City. His name is Eric Folkestad. I'd have remembered that, more than eight years later, if I remembered nothing else. I asked him to spell Folkestad. Later I asked him to spell it twice more so I could be sure I hadn't swapped the "1" and the "k" or misplaced the "e." I was so worried about botching his last name I nearly forgot to ask him the equally vital question about his first name. Are you an Eric or an Erik? iAlthough I suppose these days, as moreparents areloathe to saddle their children with anything that seems too common, there walk among us an ample population of Arycs and Eryks and the like.) It was only after I had hung up — and triple-checked that last name in my handwritten notesthat I pondered what Eric Folkestad had told me on that day in early January2006.

They invited people to come to Baker City and join them for a weekend of riding the area's curveinfested two-lanes in late May 2006 A considerable number of people, as Eric forecast they would, acceptedthe invitation. The lack of an entry fee probably helped, too. Eight years later the Hells Canyon Motorcycle Rally is a staple among BakerCounty'ssummer events, fitting nicely between the Baker City Cycling Classic iwe like our two-wheelers here, with or without engines) and Independence Day on one side, and Miners Jubilee, the Shrine weekend and the Baker County Fair on the other. The economic benefit of the rally is beyond dispute. Every motel room in Baker City — and many in surrounding towns — is occupied during the event. Restaurants and other businesses get a boost.

I don't like everything about the rally. When I have the windows of my house open to catch a cooling breeze on a summer night, the concussive rumble of V-twin Harleys on Auburn Avenue makes it seem as though the motorcycles are revving right in my driveway. Even three-year-olds struggle to sleep through the cacophony. And three-year-olds awakened at midnight are among the few entitiescapable ofsounds louder than a Harley V-twin. But it's only a couple nightsUnion Pacific, by contrast, offers no such reprieve from the piercing whistles of its locomotives. Eight years ago I doubted Baker City would ever be associated, in any meaningful way, with motorcycles. Today our town is known by thousandsofridersfrom across the nation. We're no Sturgis, to be sure — and good that we're not. And all it took was a pair of brothers with a funny last name. Folkestad. I triple-checked. Jayson Jacoby is editor of the Baker City Herald.

Sackett worked at biotechnology companies until a year ago, when he started Cascadia Labs LLC with his wife, Ashley Preece-Sackett, 34. The company now has customersacross the state who send samples via a m edical courierservice.The couple recently opened an office in Portland to receive samples, and Sackett is building a lab in Portland, too. It is a sign ofhow quickly the medical marijuana landscape is changing in Oregon, that Cascadia Labs is expanding at the same time Sackett is helping to draft a law that would grant the stateauthority to regulate these labs. New regulations on medical marijuana, passed by the Legislature in 2013 and implemented this year, are supposedtoprovidepatients withsafeaccessto cannabis products. But a state official involved with the program said the lack of regulatory authority over labs in the law prevents the state from ensuringmedicalpotissafe.

&onts where people with medical marijuana cards can buy cannabis products. The law requires marijuana sold by retai lersto be tested for pesticides, mold and mildew, "and unfortunately, that's all it said," Burns said. When the state adopted rules to implement House Bill 3460, it included a requirement that labs meet a set of international standards for operations. However, the state lacks the authority to check for compliance. As a result, state officials currently must take dispensary operators attheirword that they use labs that meet state requirements. Oregon Rep. Peter Buckley, D-Ashland, one of the chief sponsors of House Bill 3460, said lawmakers did not intend to withhold authority forthe statetoregulatelabs. "That is something we will need to rectify in the 2015 Oegislativel session," Buckley wrote in an email last week. "Professionalizing the medical marijuana program will take time.

Sackett estimated there are at least 10 labsin Oregon that test marijuana products. "I believe that additional regulation will weed out flyby-night labs," Sackett said.

WASHINGTON — Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid blocked a parade of campaign-season votes on gun rights Wednesday that could have been a political thorn for Democrats seeking to retain control of the chamber in this fall's elections. The Nevada Democrat used Senate procedures to prevent votes on any amendments to a bipartisan measure expanding hunters' access to public lands and renewing land conservation programs. The dozens of thwarted proposals included Republican efforts to expand gun owners' rights and Democratic attempts to toughen firearms restrictions. In April 2013, the Senate rejected an effort to expand background checks for gun buyers and to impose other firearms curbs, four months after the fatal shootings of 20 children and six staffers at an elementary school in Newtown, Connecticut. President Barack Obama and top Democrats promised the drive would be renewed, but they have lacked the additional votes and faced reluctance by some lawmakers to revisit the issue. The wide-ranging bill the Senate debated Wednesday included provisions opening up more federal lands to sportsmen, letting hunters return 41 polar bear carcasses to the U.S. that they shot in Canada and heading off government curbs against lead bullets and fishing equipment. It would also renew a program letting the Bureau of Land Management sell some land and let federal agencies use the funds to buy other properties. The legislation was seen as a political boon to Democratic senators from GOP-leaning states who co-sponsoredthe billand face competitivere-election races this November. That included the chief Democratic sponsor, Sen. Kay Hagan of North Carolina, plus cosponsors Sens. Mark Pryor of Arkansas, Mark Begich of Alaska, Mary Landrieu of Louisiana, John Walsh of Montana andMark Udall ofColorado. The bill was co-sponsored by 26 Republicans, 18 Democrats and one independent, a measure of bipartisan harmony rarely seen at a time of sharp divisions between the parties. But Reid said he'd been unable to reach agreement with Republicans on "a reasonable list" of amendments, which he said has been an oft-repeated pattern.

TUKWILA, Wash. — After giving up a tying goal in the final seconds ofregulation to its most heated rival, Seattle's Kenny Cooper noticed there was no sulking. Even if it meant another 30 minutes against Portland, with a league match against the Timbers looming this weekend. "No one ever put their head down so we kept battling," Cooper said after scoring on a header in the 110th minute to help the Sounders advance to the U.S. Open Cup semifinals with a 3-1 win over the Timers on Wednesday night. Cooper's goal came in the second half of extra time after Darlington Nagbe's goal in the final moments ofregulation forced an additional 30 minutes of play. Gonzalo Pineda sent a pass into the penalty area fiom 30 yards out and Cooper was able to flickit past Portland goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts. "It was obviously disappointing because we

thought we could win it in regulation we had to work extra," Seattle coach Sigi Schmid said.uBut I told the guys, We have got to do it the hard way. We11 do it the hard way.'That's just the wayit turned out tonight." Seattle heldon overthe final minutes, helped by the Timbers playing a man down after Diego Chara was given a red card in the 99th minute for his tackle of Seattle' sM arco Pappa. Portland coach Caleb Porter was angry about the redcard aftertheloss. 'That's why they won the game is thered card.At1-1 we were the better team, we were the ones creating chances," Porter said. uiSeattie goalkeeper) Stefan Frei was tremendous. He saved then. That turned the game, that call. It was one of the worst officiating performances I've ever seen since I've been around the game." Pappa added an insurance goal in the 116th minute beating Ricketts fiom the top of the penalty area with a right-footed shot.

"Ultimately what happens is that those people quit communicating with Mike Kee or the stafF altogether except in a confrontational situation," Button said. ''When you take the fighting words out of the situation, things tend to calm down and start functioning a little better." While not surprised regarding the outcome of Tuesday night's meeting, Langrell said there are still several issues he believes arecriticalfor thefuture, including the fence around the Elk Creek diversion in the city's watershed. On Monday some councilors — including Langrell — and city workers and offic ialstoured the area to view sections of a newly-built fence around the diversion point. The tour was sparked by comments Langrell made previously asserting the fence around the area was not fixed. While the Monday tour demonstrated most of the fence line is new, one sectionofthebarrierdoesneed repairs. Kee said the city will work

"It has to do with the safety of the community. It doesn't m atter ifitisthefence or them wasting money on some project the city shouldn't be spending money on. I'm just looking for the truth, that is all I'm looking for," Langrell sald. Button said he understandssome oftheriftsbetween certain members of the council may not be repairable. Still, he said it is important to look to the future. ''We may never be able to overcome some ofthose distrusts between individuals butifwecan atleastgetback to everybody behaving in a civil manner then we can set an example for the following council and say, you know, it doesn't need to be a constant situationofstrifebetween councilors," Button said.

With hot weather forecast for the next week, fire crews will continue patrolling, Crippen said.

By Batsheva Sobelman JERUSALEM — The death toll continued to climb Thursday in the Gaza Strip as Israel stepped up attacks while amassing troops for a possible ground incursion into the Hamas-controlled coastal area. Medical sources in Gaza reportedat least10people killed since midnight, among them seven members of the al-Haj family in Khan Younis, and three others who Israeli officials said were militants involved with manufacturing rockets. Additionally, media reports said that five Palestinians in Khan Younis were targeted &om the sea by Israel's navy and killed while watching a World Cup soccer match. A volley of five rockets aimed at Tel Aviv was intercepted early Thursday, sending shrapnel into the streets and suburbs of the central Israeli metropolis. Islamic Jihad claimed responsibility for the fire, launched shortly after three of its men were killed in a targeted airstrike. Sirens also sounded later in Dimona, where Israel's main nuclear reactor is located. Israel's military continued to build up its forces to expand the military operation launched early Tuesday and dubbed Protective Edge. About 20,000 army reserves have been called up so far, half the total number approved by security cabinet ministers.

have a confession to make. When I started my little outdoor shop a few weeks ago here in La Grande, my first thought wasn't how to make money selling expensive equipment to unsuspecting tourists who forgot a pieceofgearathome. Itwasto fulfill a need I didn't think was being met — in a word, to serve the local community. I won't pretend that I'm not a business person at heart any more than this wasn't a project that needs to be profitable in order to survive. But what got me excited was the prospect that I could kill two birds with one stone — support myself financially while also supporting the local outdoor community. I was inspired by the idea that the people here seem to understand their outdoor environment in a way that I haven't quite seen before: as a thing to be respected, asm uch asitisto be appreciated. As a relatively fresh transplant I may be guilty of oversimplification. But hunters here don'tseem tosolely seetheir craft as a way to exploit their environment simply for the head on the wall, any more than backcountry skiiers live here only to collect bragging rights on every Eagle Cap peak. These are byproducts that aren't necessary to calling the experience a success. We encourage tourists to enjoy the area with their Big Elk Hunt, or a cabin at Wallowa Lake, while also understanding that they may not feel the same need to holistically contribute as we do. They may pass through with a contribution to our local economy, but sharing the outdoor wealth of our corner for more than just the change in our pocket is more important. The practice of this thinking in everyday life here blew me away when I arrrived, and I wanted to contribute in whatever small way I could. To say that was a new and exciting orientation for me personally would be an understatement — in the past, I have always been the person"just passing through" describedabove.IfLa Grande and our neighbors don't need what I have chosen to bring to the table, I am quite happy to head for the drawing board. I have never been a person afraid of starting fresh if the fit isn't there. Of course, it isn't about me and never was — it's about finding a way to plug in, to add a differentshaped cog to a grand engine you already had humming well before I was given an opportunity to show up and enjoy it.

After hatchery quotas are met, the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife will often use surplus steelhead to augment many of our local waters. This is in addition to the thousands of legal-sized (8 inches), trophy (16 inches and over) and fingerling trout that are released to provide recreation for area fishermen.

Outdoor folks in Northeast Oregon have agood many things to do when summer rolls around There's hiking camping horseback riding boatingand swimming Toss in alittle watermelon and a good game ofhorseshoes Many go fish.ing The Oregon Department ofFish and Wildlife has doneagreat jobofhelping ourdayson thewaterbecornesuccessful Exceptformaybe the Snake River impoundments, most of our wild fish populations simply can't reproduce enough to meet demand. Rainbow trout, for instance, don't spawn very well in lakes or ponds. So, fish stocking has become necessarytoprovide adequate recreation for this area's fishermen. Shahab Farzanegan, the department's angling education coordinator,suggeststhattroutstocking is an invaluable tool to getting folks fishing, both youth and adults alike. But, he adds, "there should be a level of consideration when stocking to create a successful experience, but not so many fish that it creates an artificial experience thatsetsa false expectation that fishing is good every time." Jessica Sall, fish programs communication coordinator with the department, says, in 2014, the agency will stock about 223,000 legal-sized rainbow trout in Northeast Oregon waters — along with 13,000 trophy fish and 29,000 fingerlings.

~~ ' ,

These fish come from the Irrigon, Wallowa and Oak Springs hatcheries. Along with that, the department uses a few surplus steelhead to augment the program. To learn a bit more about this state's fisheries angler education programs, you can log on to www. dfw.state.or.us/education/angling. To plan your upcoming fishing endeavor,you can find out where and when the fish are being stocked by logging on www. dfw.state.or.us/resources/fishing/ troutstocking schedule. This state's fish stocking programs are especially good for kids. The fish, in stocked waters, are plentiful and usually easy to catch. And, the waters supplemented are quite accessible. The end result is a good mess of tasty trout for the dinner table and a chance to cool the video games down for a few hours.

This state's fish stocking program is a boon for kids. It creates a great fishing experience for those just learning the craft, and a chance to learn about other wildlife, and nature in general.

WesCom News Servicestaff

verybody knows that in ordertoaccomplish something, be it big or small, you must set a goal. It doesn't m atter ifthegoalistolose 10 pounds,toeathealthierorto work out consistently. Although we probably all agreethatgoal-settingis necessary, the real problem is not setting the goal, but sticking with it. Talk is cheap, and if you really want to achieve your goals this summer, fitness or otherwise, you really need a plan. To help you get it right this summer, here are my seven

'r ". sa ,a

habits ofhighly fit people: 1. Set a goal. Similar to a business metric, you must set quantifiable fitness and health goals. For example, if your cholesterol is 250, give yourself the goalofgetting it down to 200 by your next checkup, as opposed to just wishing that number would go down. Take concrete steps, like limiting or eliminating your consumption of highcholesterol foods,likebutter, cheese, eggs and meat.If weight loss is also a goal, commit to a number, let's say 20 pounds, and figure out how many weeks or months it will take you to safely reach your goal. If you stay committed, you can safely lose 20 pounds in 10 weeks. If you want to improve your muscle tone and strength, give yourself a goal like achieving 10 perfect pushups in eight weeks, and so on. Otherwise you are just wishing forresultsasopposed to planning and tracking your success. A wish requires no action on your part, but a plan does. 2. Write it down. Some wise person once said "failing to plan is planning to fail." Write down every single thing you would like to accomplish to improve your health, diet and workouts. You are far more likely to reach your goals if you write them down. 3. Avoid portion distortion. Many people mistakenly think that working out is a license to eat not only whatever they want, but also unlimited quantities. Nothing could be further from the truth. With or without exercise, if you consume more calories than you burn each day you will gain weight. If you're aiming for a sixpack, guess what — it starts in the kitchen, baby. At the minimum, diet is 80 percent of the equation and exercise is 20 percent but you still have to do both. There are no shortcuts, and no amount of SeeGarrison / Page 5C

DANCING STRESS,POUNDS

By Tiish Yerges ForwesCom News Service

Zumba dance-fitness parties are gaining popularity in Union County, as their exotic Latino drum beats irresistibly draw participants to the La Grande dance studio of Belgium born instructor Annelies De Vriendt. Zumba is a Latin-based dance workout led by an instructor, who guides students through dance steps that strengthen and tone muscles. It's so fun that most studentsdon'tconsideritexercise becauseofitsappealing and soulstirring music. Whether it's cumbia, salsa, merengue, mambo, flamenco, chachacha, riggaeton, soca, samba, hip-hop, axe music or tango, Zumba helps dance away the calories. "Zumba is for everyone, children

and adults," De Vriendt said."So many are afraid to go to a gym. Don't be afraid. Come to Zumba dressed as you are. All that matters is that you're here with us." De Vriendt teaches Zumba classesather studioaswellasthe Grande Ronde Fitness Center in La Grande. To help eliminate the self-consciousness so many feel when working out, De Vriendt turns off the lights in her dance studio on the second floor of 1315 Adams Ave., and illuminates it only with a tiny string oflights along the floor. Participantsfeelm orefree to enjoy the class without all eyes upon them. 'There is only one rule in this class, and that is to have fun," De Vriendt said."Perfection is an illusion and imperfection is beautiful. So you might as well step outside of

the box and throw itaway.Beyou. Be happy. Come and party those calories away." Her students in the Zumba Gold class are doing just that.

Just in time for the peak of grilling season, results of a new study show that most consumers need to improve food handling and preparation practices in their own kitchen to help minimize the chancesoffoodborne illness. The study, conducted by University of California, Davis, emphasizes the need forincreased food safety education for consumers and contains some surprising resultsbased on observation of mealsprepared athome. Cross-contamination and insufficient cooking are the most common risks found while observing the handling and preparation of raw poultry. Among those participating in the West Coast study were households in Portland as well as Seattle, San Francisco and Los Angeles. 'The most surprising aspect of these findings to me was the prevalence of undercooking," said Christine Bruhn, director of the Center for Consumer Research at UC Davis, who authored the study.aWe are now in summer, the peak season for foodborneillness,and these results come at a time when more consumers can benefit from beingaware ofbetter foodsafety practices.Even tips usually considered basic, like washing hands with soap and water before and after handling raw poultry, and never rinsing raw poultry in the sink, still need to beemphasized fora safer experience." The study and its findingshave prompted Oregon Department of Agriculture Director Katy Coba to lend her voice to the consumer education effort. Coba has recorded a public service announcement for the summer that focuses on proper handlingand preparation of poultry. "As we all know, food safety SeeSafety / Page 5C

But as many states have begun to review and modify their sentencing policies, the number of people in prisons has dropped nationwide, she said.

"Higher spendingis not necessarily anindication of waste, and lower spendingis not necessarily a sign of efficiency," Schiff cautioned. Some statesarespendingmore per inmate despite the nationwide decrease in total spending. Idaho, Montana and Oregon were all among the states that saw per-inmate spending increase between 2007 and 2011. Montana per-inmate spending increased 37 percent — from

per inmate in inflation-adjusted dollars — and Oregon spendingincreased about 21 percentto about $7,300.In Idaho, per-inmate spending grew about 8 percent during the same period, reaching nearly $4,900 per inmate in iscalyear 2011,according to f the report. California saw the largest per-inmateincrease at42 percent, according to the report, with per-inmate costs

climbing from about $10,200 about $6,100 to about $8,400 to nearly $14,500.
