City's burn banlikely to remainuntil Oct. 1
Baker City Fire ChiefMark John said heexpects to lift the city'sban on outdoor burningon Oct. 1.
With warmer thanaverage weatherhigh temperatures inthe 70s — and littlechance of rain in theforecast through Friday,John said he decidedto continue the burnban that's been in effectsince early July.
"All it takes is about72 hours for fuels todry out to be receptive to fire," John saidthis morning. "We justhaven't gotten enoughmoisture or rain tomake a difference. Fireseason isn't over yet. Itcould still get crazy."
John said lowernighttime temperaturesand higher nighttimehumidity levels are aplus, but that it's betterto err on the side ofcaution.

lab analyst who had workedat the Ontario office beforemoving to Bend, is thesubject of the investigation.She is accused of stealingpills and other drugs andreplacing them with overthe-counter pills, according toThe Oregonian newspaper.
Larsen has been placed onadministrative leave duringthe criminal investigation.
Shirtcliff said he will besending out letters to defenseattorneys involved in theBaker County cases.
"None may be affected, butthey all need to be reviewed— anything she worked on,"Shirtcliff said."Until wego through them, we won'tknow if they are affected. Wewill review each and everycase."
Shirtcliff said he will meetw ith representatives of theDepartment of Justice andthe Attorney General's 0$cethis week.
The majority of cases withevidence worked by Larsenare from Eastern Oregon.
Deschutes County DistrictAttorney John Hummel saidhe must retest the evidencein 502 cases dating back to
2012. In Klamath County,District Attorney Rob Patridge said he's reviewing 328cases dating as far back as2007.
Ulys Stapleton, districtattorney in Lake County,said only about a dozen of hiscases were affected and that
Union County reviewingmore than 100 cases
The Union County DistrictAttorney's Office is reviewingmore than 100 cases in the midst of a criminal investigation into mishandling of evidence at an Oregon StatePolice crime lab.
Union County DA Kelsie McDaniel said her office wasprovided with a list of cases worked on by the subject ofthe investigation.
"We do know that this particular person has worked onapproximately 116 cases (in Union County) throughoutthat person's career," McDaniel said, adding that her staffis "going through and looking at each and every case" to"ensure the integrity of the cases."
The state informed the DA's office that the allegedevidence mishandling involved controlled substances,McDaniel said, although the office is reviewing cases that"are not confined to controlled cases."
McDaniel said DA offices do not decide where evidenceis sent for analysis.
"We don't usually control where the evidence goes. Wedon't choose which analyst is examining each piece ofevidence," she said.
McDaniel said if the allegations are true, the situation"is absolutely disturbing."

two cases remain pending.OSP also has investigated
a second forensic analystwho worked at the Coos Baycrime lab for misconduct inthe past.
The second analyst hasbeen identified as Jeff Dovci.State police said in review
ing records for a subpoena,forensics staff and an Oregon Department of Justiceattorney found material that"potentially cast doubt onthe analyst's future testimony."
Baker County had notworked with that analyst,and no cases would havebeen affected, Shirtcliff said.
Authorities said the problem with the second analyst's work wasn't that hetampered with evidence, butthat he came to too strongof a conclusion based on theevidence.
Dovci, now a privateforensic consultant, said hedid not steal anything, didnot falsify results, and thestate's allegations about hisinterpretation of evidenceare a matter of opinion.The state police operates
five labs across the state.Others are in Springfield,Pendleton and Portland. Lt.Bill Fugate, a state policespokesman, said the forensiclabs have very strict policiesand procedures in place,including regular auditsBut, he said, the disclosuresabout the analysts areprompting further reviews.

Continued from Page 1AMichelle DeFord, 68, who
has lived in Sumpter since2007, said she had talkedwith her son just a coupledays before she learned hehad been killed.
'There's nothing moredevastating than the day youget notified that your child isdead," she said.On that September day
almost 11 years ago, M ichelleimmediately rememberedanother conversation she hadhad with her son, not longafter the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
David had served in theArmy previously, from 19871991.
"He called me one eveningand asked whatIthoughtabout re-enlisting," Michellesald.
She had misgivings, eventhough both of her sons,David and Randall, her husband, Steve, and her fatherare military veterans.
"But you can't impose yourwill on your children forever,"Michelle said."I wanted tosupport him, no matter howhe felt about it."
David's death changed Michelle's life in multiple ways.In 2005 she traveled to
Florida as part of a group opposed to the war in Iraq.
Later that year Michellespent two weeks participating in a protest near President George W. Bush's ranchat Crawford, Texas.
There she met Cindy Sheehan, who became perhapsthe best-known anti-war activist of the era after her son,Casey, was killed in action inIraq on April 4, 2004.
But Michelle's involvementin the anti-war movementdidn't last long.
That's in part because shedislikes the moniker "antiwar activist."
Considering her manymale relatives who haveserved in the military,Michelle said she has alwaysstrived not to dishonor theirservice.

It led directly to her decision, and her husband's, toretire earlier than they hadexpected, and their move toSumpter.
"Since 2005 I've been really, really quiet," Michellesald.

"I don't trust Iran — nobody trusts Iran," Michellesaid."But with this dealthey can'tcheatwithout ourknowing."
Michelle said her son'sdeath in a war that wasmore costly in lives and dollars than many politiciansexpected served to solidify abelief she already had — thatnegotiation should supersedewar unless no other plausibleoption exists.
"I don't understand thepushback against diplomacy,"Michelle said."I think the average person who's screaming for war doesn't understand what it's like to have aperson, a son or a husband,deployed. That person hasn'tseen the aftermath of war."
Michelle said that duringthe 90 minutes or so shespent in the White House,most of that in the RooseveltRoom, Obama told her that"this town leans toward warall the time."
"He talked to us for 40minutes," she said."He comesacross as so warm and gracious, and really intelligent.There's so much hate for thisman, it amazes me that he

reached out with his righthand, Michelle thought hewanted to shake her hand.
Instead, he placed in herpalm a"challenge coin."
This is a long-standing tradition in which the presidentbestows one of these smallmedallions, usually on amilitary member, via a sort of"secret handshake."
Michelle said she also received a challenge coin fromKerry, whom she sat next toin the Roosevelt Room.
The White House trip hasrevitalized Michelle's beliefthat diplomacy should driveAmerica's foreign policy.
"David's death did give mea voice, and I plan to use it,"she said."I don't know thatI'll ever be done, will ever getdown off my soap box."
And yet her enthusiasmfor the subject is tem pered bythe pain ofher memories.
Her decade of silence, afterher initial flurry of publicadvocacy following David'sdeath, was therapeutic.
"It's not easy to pull outthis stuff that's been buried,"Michelle said.'We're happy,we've adjusted. But the skywill never be as blue, thetrees will never be so green.Nothing will ever be thesame for us."

In the aftermath of the biggest wildfire in BakerCountyhistory, salvage logging is a major topic ofdiscussion.
And a major source of frustration.We understand why.On some of the private land burned in the 104,000
acre Cornet/Windy Ridge fire, loggers have alreadyfelled burned trees, and trucks have hauled them to asawmill.
On public land, meanwhile — which makes upslightly more than half of the burned ground — it'sall but certain that none of the burned trees will besalvaged before next spring.
And we won't be surprised ifnot a single charredtree is salvaged from public land in 2016.
Which would be a pity.Not only would the economic value of the trees be
lost — aAer about two years burned trees are worthless as lumber — but planting new trees would also bedelayed.
The notion that the federal government, which manages these lands on our behalf; would in effect prolongthe effects of the fire damage, is infuriating.
To be clear, we're not suggesting there is an equivalency between private and public forests.
Private forest owners must comply with Oregon'sForest Practices Act, but they don't have to try to balance the public's wishes and concerns, as is the casewith the land that belongs to all of us.
And yet, managing public forests is not a purelydemocratic process. We don't go to the ballot box todecide whether to cut trees or build a road or close acaIIlpgI'ound.
Although federal laws require the Forest Service andBLM to study the potential effects oflogging and other
work, and give citizens the right to appeal the agency'sdecisions, those laws also recognize that wildfires arespecial circumstances.
Specifically, agencies can write much shorter environmental studies — the difference, let's say, betweena newspaper story and a Tolstoy novel — to speedsalvage logging aAer a wildfire.
But here's the problem: That legal authority is solimited as to be meaningless when applied to a blazeas big as Cornet/Windy Ridge.
Current law allows agencies to do the abbreviatedstudy for salvage logging on areas no larger than 250
Cornet/Windy Ridge burned almost 57,000 acres ofpublic land.
Not all of that was forested or is otherwise suitablefor salvage logging, to be sure. But a 250-acre limit iswoefully insuKcient to deal with the scope of the firedaIIlage.
Rep. Greg Walden, the Oregon Republican congressman whose district includes Baker County, wants tochange this situation.
He's promoting a bill, H.R. 2647 — the Resilient
Federal Forests Act of 2015 — that would expand the250-acre limit for fire salvage logging to 5,000 acres.
The House of Representatives passed the bill in July,but it has gained no traction in the Senate.
This bill should become law.The discrepancy between how the government
handles fires while they're burning, and how it dealswith their damage, is vast — unconscionably so.
When the flames erupt we summon everything inour great public arsenal — jet airplanes, thousands offirefighters, millions of dollars.
But in the sooty aftermath we dawdle, plagued bybureaucratic inertia and a legal labyrinth, while public
There is no great mystery here. We know how tomake use ofburned trees in ways that speed ratherthan retard the recovery of our forests.
Why we aren't doing so is the question that makesus shake our heads.

Donald Trump should have touredthe Ronald Reagan Presidential Librarybefore he debated at the Simi Valley,Calif., venue on Wednesday. Perhapshe'd have seen the permanent exhibitshowcasing index cards on which theGreat Communicator handwrote hisfavorite one-liners.
According to the library display,Reagan began making such notationsin the 1950s, drawing on the wisdom ofdiverse figures like Greek playwrightAristophanes, Roman philosopher Cicero and President John Adams. For 40years, it was his practice to keep themin a makeshift photo album. The 3-by-5cards holding his favorite one-liners fordinner speeches and campaign rallieswere wrapped with a rubber band andkept in his briefcase.Reagan library executive director
John Heubusch told me that the notecards were almost lost to history.
"Back during the Reagan centennial,the 100th anniversary ofhis birth, Iasked our stafFhere to go in search ofmaterial that was not on display here atthe library but perhaps find somethingnew and interesting," he told me.
"After months of searching they founda box which was not marked in any way,just a brown cardboard box high up ona shelf. In this box was the contents ofPresident Reagan's last working desk,so it had in it rubber bands and paperclips and things like that you'd find in adesk."
That box also contained the indexcards.

Editorial from The (Bend) Bulletin:One of the biggest needs in Oregon is
a transportation bill to repair the state'sroads and bridges.
It didn't happen in the 2015 legislative session. Senate President PeterCourtney, a Democrat, declared even asthe 2015 session began that he didn'tthink a transportation bill would pass.
Now, before the 2016 session, Courtney is again saying a transportation billis not going to pass. It's going to haveto wait until 2017, he said, because hehas "found little support from othersfor tackling the complex and politicallycharged issue in the short session."

We can't help but think some of thereluctance is not related to the brevityof the session. The very purpose of shortsessions is to address critical problems.Roads and bridges are just as critical asother legislative priorities for 2016, suchas spending on the Public EmployeesRetirement System and costs of Medicaid. Why does this critical problem getput ofI?Perhaps state legislators have their
eyes more on the 2016 election than thestate's needs. Paying for a transportation package likely means raising Oregon's gas tax. And voting to raise taxesin an election year gives opponents a

Fiorina cleverly releaseda campaign video"Ladies, look at thisface, and look at all of your faces — theface ofleadership."And then came the debate. When

appearance elevated her profile, whichcontributed to the number of questionsthat came her way. Trump ensured shereceived more than her share of facetime.
And Trump's comments about Fiorinaare just the type ofbehavior that causesReagan's eldest son Michael to believeTrump is the least Reaganesque of thelot.
"Ronald Reagan didn't attack thepeople around him," he told me."Hedidn't demean the people around him.He brought everybody together at theend. If Republicans don't bring everybody together at the end of the day, wedo not win elections.
''We are the smallest bus in thebuilding," he added.'We don't have theability to throw people off the bus anddemean them. We have to figure ioutl away to put people on that bus, and moveit forward to Washington, D.C., and Idon't think that Donald Trump is theguy who, in fact, fills the bus ..."
Many expected Trump to go after BenCarson in the debate, but The Donaldplayed nice. Perhaps Carson should alsotake the tour, and pay attention to another notecard in Reagan's handwriting:
"Beware of those who fall at your feet.They may be reaching for the corner ofthe rug."

BAKER CITY HERALD — 5AMONDAY, SEPTEMBER 21, 2015
WesCom News ServiceBy Taylor W. Anderson
SALEM — This year is onpace to be a deadly one fordrivers on Oregon's roads.After fewer people died in
2013 on Oregon roads thanat any time since World WarII,the state saw an increasein 2014 and is on track in2015 for another year of m oreroad deaths than in recentyears. Already this year,there have been 301 deathson Oregon roads, and thestate is on track to see m oretraflc deaths — includingthose thatinvolve pedestrians — than in the last 15years.
Amid the reversal of a longtrend of fewer and fewerroad deaths, Oregon is heading into a year when it willincrease rural speed limits,which has state and nationalsafety experts nervous.
"Since 1999 ... we havebeen better than the nationalaverage. Sometimes 33 percent better than the nationalaverage," said Troy Costales,who heads the Oregon Department of Transportation'ssafety division.
Researchers know from decades of study that when theeconomy improves, peopledrive more. With more peoplespending more time on theroad, the number of traflcdeaths goes up. And thatmay be what's happening inOregon.
'There is a clear correlation over time between therise and fall of the unemployment rate and the numberof crashes on the road," saidRuss Rader, a spokesman

rate has steadily declinedover the last five years, hitting a low point of 5.2 percentin April 2015 before tickingback up in recent months.
e We are seeing increase inmiles driven both in the U.S.overall as well as in Oregon,"said Ken Kolosh, managerof statistics at the NationalSafety Council, an Illinoisbased group that trackstraffic deaths. Kolosh saidearly data show the amountof time Oregonians spendon roads is increasing fasterthan elsewhere.
"In general, during a recession, fewer people drive andfewer people die on our roads,and that's exactly what weexperienced during this lastrecession," Kolosh said."Nowwe're unfortunately seeingthat rebound, which is resulting in more people dying."

"The fair share, meaning about half the time ortwo-thirds, there's no speedinvolved and there's no impairment involved," Costalessald.
Many fatal accidents thisyear, Costales said, involvejust one car that leaves theroad.
"Therein lies a little bitof the mystery, so why?" hesald.
Many of the questionssafety officials have won'tbe answered until afternumbers are finalized andthe state has time to analyzewhat caused crashes. Buteven then, it may not alwaysbe clear what caused thedriver to leave the road.

Voters coulddecide severalhot-button issuesin 2016 electionBy Jonathan J. Cooper
SALEM — Oregon's 2016 ballot looks to be filledwith hot-button initiatives that have left voters sharplydivided in the past.
Ballot measures on corporate taxes, the minimumwage, union rights and immigration all could appear. Socould other issues new to voters, like repealing a carbonreduction program and liquor privatization.
It's still early, however, and very few initiative organizers have started collecting signatures.
At this point, only one measure is assured ofbeing onthe ballot. It asks whether the mandatory retirementage for judges — 75 years old — should be lifted. Thatone was referred by the Legislature earlier this year.
Here's a look at some of the initiatives that couldcome up in next year's election.
MINIMUM WAGETwo groups have unveiled competing proposals to
raise the minimum wage.A group of Oregon's most influential — and well
financed — unions and liberal activist groups proposesraising the wage floor to $13.50 an hour and allowinglocal governments like Portland and Eugene to set aneven higher rate. The so-called Raise the Wage Coalitionannounced its plans in July but hasn't filed paperworkto begin collecting signatures.
Meanwhile, a separate group is continuing to push fora higher wage of $15, which would be uniform state
It's possible that the Legislature will squelch theminimum wage talk before Election Day, however, byraising it without a ballot measure. In fact, the$13.50group has said it would prefer that lawmakers do thework.
Business interests are fiercely opposed to hiking theminimum wage, which they worry would make it harderfor businesses to hire workers.
Oregonians voted in 2002 to raise the minimum wageto $6.90 an hour and increase it annually based on inflation. It's now up to $9.25.

a measure allowing people to get a driver'slicense without proving they're legally in thecountry. Now immigration hardliners are eying a variety of other ballot m easures.
One would designate English as the officiallanguage in Oregon. Another would requireemployers to verify the immigration status oftheir employees.
LIQUORGrocery stores are pondering whether to
push for a ballot measure privatizing liquorsales and distribution, ending the monopolyof the Oregon Liquor Control Commission.
Grocers successfully persuaded Washington voters in 2011 to end their state's liquormonopoly, allowing sales ofhard alcohol inlarge retail outlets. They began an Oregoncampaign in 2014 but backed ofF.
Meanwhile, with the potential liquor initiative looming, the OLCC is seeking applications for up to 17 new liquor stores in thePortland area.

TAXESThe liberal group Our Oregon has proposed
seven ballot measures that would raise taxeson corporations or wealthy individuals.
The measures look to set up a refight of acontentious battle between labor and business interests in 2010. Voters that year approved Measure 66, which temporarily raisedtaxes on people making more than $125,000,and Measure 67, which permanently raisedthe corporate minimum tax, which is generally paid by companies that are unprofitableor have low profit margins.
UNION RIGHTSPortland attorney Jill Gibson hoped to
push a so-called "right-to-workn initiative forpublic employees, which would allow government workers in union-represented positionsto opt out of paying union fees.
Gibson told The Oregonian on Tuesdaythat she wasn't sure she'd go forward with theinitiative. She said she was unhappy with theballot title — the official description that appears on the ballot — written by the attorneygeneral's office and approved by the SupremeCourt.
The proposal has been closely watchedby public-employee unions, whose financialheft makes them influential in Democraticpolitics.
Even if the ballot measure is abandoned,the U.S. Supreme Court has taken a case thatcould lead to the end of mandatory uniondues.

LA GRANDE BESTOWS SUMMER LANDSCAPING AWARDSDORY'S DIARY

s 'Embarrassing moments.I'm sure not to be the only one who
has them, but other people alwaysseem to enjoy those belonging tosomeone else. This morning, for someunknown reason, I happened to remember one of mine as I was puttingon my shoes.
It was while I was dressing for theday that the painful moment came tome and I thought I should tuck it awayin my diary so that I wouldn't forgetit when I get old. Pay attention to howyou get dressed, I scolded myself, andthen relived the day that it happened.
Surely it was funnier to others thanit was to me.
It was years ago that my husbandGeorge and I had been invited to awedding out of town.
Fortunately it wasn't many milesfrom home since we weren't stayingthe night. We just got in our car anddrove to the home where the weddingand reception were to be held andthen back home again early evening.Because of that, my embarrassmentwasn't long-lasting.
It all began that lovely summerafternoon when we were makingpreparations to leave our home, readying ourselves in clothing, at that timesuitable for a wedding — a suit, whiteshirt, and tie for George, a dress, hose,and heels for me.
I was undecided about what shoes towear as I picked out my purse, jewelry,and other accessories because it was tobe a lawn ceremony, and I didn't wantto make holes in the soil with very highheels. I tried on a couple pair to seewhich ones would be the best choice.Of course, myindecision was puttingus on a tight schedule and George wasanxious to be on the way, for there werefamily members also attending froma distance, too, and that meant a lot ofvisiting to do.

I do want to tell you about Coral Bellsbefore we run out of growing season.
Mine are the "coral" color which Ilike the very best, but you can also getthem with colored leaves and tallerwhite flowers. Mine bloomed in thespring and lasted a long time. Whenthe blooms had died off I cut back thestems and before long, new buds wereappearing. They have been bloomingfor the second time for quite a while soI'm loving that.
They are smaller than my picture ionPage 2Bl seems to show, but they cansure add a smile to any face if they arein your flower beds.I figure that if they are"coral" bells
they should be coral, but did have ataller one with white flowers. It hasn'tdone much this summer, though.

The La Grande Community Landscapeand Forestry Commission is recognizing StellMitchell's residence and Bud Jackson's business property as recipients of the summerbeautification awards.
The awards program, established in the1990s, recognizes one residential and onebusiness property in La Grande each spring,summer and fall for their beauty, planningand creativity.'The La Grande Community Landscape
and Forestry Commission tries to recognizepeople's efforts to install and maintain landscaping to improve the appeal and beautyof the city," said Teresa Gustfason, who hasbeen the tree care educator for the city of LaGrande since 2006.
The criteria for a residential award is thatthe landscaping integrates color, texture,seasonal diversity and appropriate use ofhardscapes and space.
The landscaping should also promoteresource conservation, wildlife habitat and/orfood production.
Sometimes the award is given to ownerswho have to overcome special circumstances

making somebody else smile who walksby my yard. It's a wonderful feeling."
such as a lack of water.Mitchell's winning property is at 709 16th
St., and she was informed by the city recentlythat she had won the award.
"I was very pleased about it and flattered,"said Mitchell."People walk by and compliment me on it all the time, and it's a wonderful feeling. I don't have much to give, but I'mmaking somebody else smile who walks bymyyard."
Mitchell has extensive flower beds aroundher home and inside and outside her perimeter fence.
"The city liked all the flowers," Mitchellsaid."There are flowers all over. I just plantthe things I like, mainly flowers with fragrance. I planted cosmos, phlox, a lot of fallcrocus, clematis and roses. I also love Asianlilies for their look and smell. I feed the birdstoo, and they seed some things for me oc
casionally too. I love to see things grow that Ididn't plant."
Commercial property winners are chosenfor landscaping that involves careful planningfor integrated colors, textures with plants,and creative use of available landscape. BudAshcroft of Bud Jackson's Sportsman's Bar &Grill, 2209 Adams Ave., did the landscapingon his winning property.
'That iawardl surprised me by the way,"said Ashcroft."I didn't know there was somekind of contest going on. I did some of thelandscaping last year, planting shrubs outfront, then you just have to keep the flowerbeds weeded. I also have hanging baskets allaround the deck. Basically, I didn't get carriedaway, so I was surprised I won."
The two award winners received a letterfrom the commissioners, a certificate signedby the mayor and a placard placed in front oftheir home or business for that season.
Nominations for the upcoming fall beautification awards are being accepted throughSeptember. Neighbors and fiiends maynominate properties they admire and submitthem to Gustafson at the city's Parks andRecreation Department.See Coral I Page 2B

The average woman needsabout 1,800 or 2,000 caloriesto get through her day. Forthe average man, it is morelike 2,400 calories.
But what if you're anathlete? What if you're, say,an offensive lineman on aprofessional football team?
The more you physicallyexert yourself the more calories you need for fuel. Theaverage offensive linemanrequires 6,200 to 6,500 calories a day to perform at hispeak with suKcient energythroughout an entire game.
Even a lowly quarterbackneeds 5,200 to 5,400 calories.
Obviously, athletes don'teat like the rest of us, andelite athletes don't eat likeordinary athletes.
Back in the day, BabeRuth was known to devourtwo porterhouse steaks, twosalads, tw o orders of friesand two apple pies a la modefor dinner — and then makeafter-dinner snacks out of adozen hot dogs washed downwith a dozen Coca-Colas.
But those days, perhapsfortunately, are gone. Eatingis more of a science now.Today's athletes are likelyto follow a health-consciousregimen, and many professional teams hire their ownnutritionists and dietitians.
Simon Lusky is theteam chef for the St. LouisCardinals and is also chefand owner of Revel Kitchen.A nutritionist with a degreefrom the Johnson & Walesculinary school, he tailors hismeals to athletes dependingon the sport they play, thetraining they do and eventheir roles on their team.
Lusky cooks meals andgives nutrition advice toeveryone from professionalathletes to the people he callsweekend warriors — thosewho may run 5K or 10Kraces, play soccer or mayberide a bicycle for exercise— to people who are essentially sedentary. Thoughtheir needs are different, hehas the same mantra foreveryone:"I believe in balance overall, a good balancebetween fat, protein andcarbohydrates."
How this balance is formulated, however, is differentfor the different lifestyles."Sedentary people want towatch carbohydrates, but it'svice versa for athletes. Forathletes we want to get themcarbs, and time them well,"he said
Lusky said that a goodbalance for weekend warriorsand many elite athletes, including baseball players, is toconsume 50 percent of theircalories in carbohydrates,30 percent in protein and 20percent in fats.
There are carbohydrates,
CORAL
Baked fried chicken
and then there are carbohydrates. Lusky prefers whathe calls "clean" carbohydrates — whole grains andunprocessed foods as opposedto, say, white rice and whitebread.
"They can have potatoes,but not mashed potatoeswith butter and cream. We'reroasting them. We can givethem potatoes, but not dirtying them up with the otherstuffa he said.
Protein is importantfor everyone, but athletesespecially need it because ithelps to repair muscles. Forhis clients and restaurantcustomers, Lusky focuses onwhat he calls high-qualityproteins, "things that arewild-caught or grass-fed."Fresh vegetables and fruitsare also important sources ofprotein. But he warns thatprotein is only helpful up toa point.
"They say that you can'tmetabolize anything morethan two grams of proteinper pound of body weight.After that, your body can'tuse it and just flushes it out.Those are calories that make
your body work hard and canput a lot of strain on yourbody, such as your kidneystrying to get rid of it" he said.
For most athletes in training, he recommends a ratioof 1 gram of protein daily forevery pound ofbody weight.
When he is cooking for theCardinals, Lusky often likesto make healthy, nutrientdense versions of otherwiseunhealthy comfort food.Instead of fried chicken,he makes roasted chickencovered with crushed cornflakes for crunch. Instead of atypically decadent risotto, hemakes a version with barleyinstead ofrice, using dehydrated mushrooms for extraflavor and the liquid theyreconstituted in as stock.
And for macaroni andcheese, he makes a saucemostly out of pureed butternut squash. The cheesy flavorcomes from a combinationof three cheeses, including atangy goat cheese to offsetthe sweetness of the squash.For dessert, he will occa
sionally splurge and make abread pudding. He uses lesscream than most versions,
v

substituting skim milk andcoconut milk, and he replacessome of the sugar with sorghum, which has a lowerglycemic index. But even so,it's bread pudding. It's notgoing to be great for you.
"I like to tell everyone, including elite athletes, that everyone should lead their lifeby the 80-20 rule," he said.Eighty percent of the time,you should watch what youeat. In the other 20 percent,you should "live a little."
When Lusky first came towork for the Cardinals, theteam's strength and conditioning coach Pete Prinzi toldhim, 'You can't train hardand diet hard. Somethingwill give." Just as it is important to take a day off fromexercise to let your body rest,Lusky believes that taking aday off from dieting is important for your mental health.You can't live up to unrealexpectations, he said.
What is vital for athleteseating balanced meals is tokeep at it, he said.
"Consistency is everything.It is important to keep upwhat you are doing, even if

In a gardener's vernacular the words "brag"and "share" are almostsynonymous.
At least, I think theyare closely associated:brag is to speak boastfully and share is to have,use or experience jointlywith others.

Brits usually don't get veryhigh marks when it comes totheir national cuisine. Disheslike bangers isausagel andmash ipotatoesl do little tocapture a foodie's im agination. And is anything morebleh than a slab of roastbeef on Yorkshire pudding,which isn't a pudding at allbut a popover made ofbakedunsweetened egg batter? Orso the thinking goes.
It's a bad iand undeserved)rap that drives British-bornfood lovers like Scott Perry
While he's quick toacknowledge the country'sfast-food scene is "horrible"when compared to that in theUnited States, the Nottingham native is pretty sure allthose other negative stereotypes about British food canbe chalked up to one simplething — bad travel choices.
"I think it's because whenpeople go to Britain, theydon't know what to order,"says Perry, who moved withhis family to Upper St. Clair,Penn., when he was a toddler,and grew up in Greensburg.
What tourists really shouldbe eating, he says, is a dishthe country has had a loveaffair with since the 13thcentury — meat pies.
Stuffed with savory meatsand veggies — think steakand ale, chicken and leeks,lamb and pork — thesesimple classics are the perfectcomfort food, and oh so delicious with their butter and/orlard crusts.
In addition to being aBritish pie fanatic, Perry isalso the museum facilitatorfor Bushy Run Battlefield inPenn Township, Westmoreland County. Fought in 1763during Pontiac's Rebellion,the battle — and resultingBritish victory — preventedthe capture of Fort Pitt byOttawa and other tribes ofNative Americans. Or as heputs it,'We're the battle thatsaved Pittsburgh."As such,"itdidn't make sense not to beinvolved."Perry's favorite, the D

"I really like meat pies, andhistory, so it was a win-winfor me," says Perry.

Place the flour and salt inthe bowl of a food processor;briefly pulse them together.Add the butter and pulse at1-second intervals until thelargest pieces of butter are thesize of chickpeas. Remove thelid, pour "/z cup of the ice waterevenly over the flour mixture,replace the lid, and pulse a fewtimes. Add just enough moreice water so that the doughholds together when you pressit between your fingers. Do notovermix.
Pour dough onto a piece ofplastic wrap, gently pat it together using the edges of theplastic wrap; then flatten it intoa large flat disc or rectangle.Wrap it tightly in plastic andrefrigerate while you makethe filling. (You can make thedough several hours aheadof time, or the day before, ifdesired. Refrigerate until readyto use.)
Heat oven to 400 degrees.Combine chopped beef, onion,potatoes and carrots in a largebowl. Add salt, pepper, oliveoil, thyme and rosemary; mixwell. Set aside.
Cut pastry into 6 equal pieces and shape each one into aflat disc. On a lightly flouredsurface, gently roll each pieceof pastry into a 9-inch round.If the dough starts to stick tothe work surface or rolling pin,sprinkle itwith a small amountof flour.
Place about1 cup of fillingon each round, either in themiddle if you want to bringboth sides of the pastry up andtogether, or on one side so youcan pull the other side of thepastry over to make a semi-circle.

AdvantagesBales are generally about
2 feet high, which helps withgairleners who have backproblems.
You can garden on anasphalt driveway or concretedrivewayor on a patio. Theconsiderations would be thatthe site is dose to a watersource and thatit will receivethe proper amount of sun toproduce a crop.
Straw-bale gairleningiseconomical. Straw balesnot hay — are available atfarm and garden centerslocally, or ifyou're lucky, koma local farm.
The bale should be tightand held together with two tothree strands ofbaling twineand placed on the gmund sothat the baling twine is parallel to the gmund to avoidtheir hastened decomposition.
Ground-dwellinginsectssuch as cutworms will beless of a problem in strawbale gardens because thebale elevates the plant abovegmund level.
Straw bales aie a multipurpose resource, iwordskom mykiendl. He will usethem as winter wind protection for his bee colonies andthenin the spring as compostmaterial and bedding mulch.
DisadvantagesYou will have weeds, but
they aie easy to pull.Tall plants should be
avoided. Sometimes the balecan't hold the weight of a tall
Aesthetics might be aconsideration. Will the neighbors be OKwith the view ofa straw-bale garden next toyour Rolls-Royce?
Lastly, the bales aie heavywhen wet. Make sure youhave a plan for placementbefore you start conditioningthebale.
The techniqueAccording to the Washing
ton State University Extension Fact Sheet FS109E, thebales have to be conditionedover a period of appmximately11days.
The 6rst three days youkeep the bales thoroughlywet. Keeping the bales moistis veryimportant. Once thebales have been watered,they will be very heavy, sobe sure they are where youwant them to be. As theinside of the bales begin todecompose they will start towarm up. This is part of theconditioning pmcess.
On days four,6ve and six,sprinlde the top ofeach bale

with 1cup of ammoniumsulfate i21-0-Ol or a highnitmgen ferlilizer. A half cupof urea i46-0-Ol can also beused. Water the fertilizerafter each application. Thisspeeds the decomposition
On days seven, eight andnine, cut the amount of ferlilizer per bale in haK Takecare not to water excessively,which could lead to runoffand leaching of the nitrogenout of the bale.
On day 10, stop addingfertilizer, but keep the balesmoist.
On day 11, feel the topof the bale for heat. If stillhot, check every day untilthe bale cools down to about99 Fahrenheit or lower,still keeping bales moist bywatering when needed.
Eventually all the conditions are justright and planting can begin. There are twoways of planting either in apocket or hole or creating aflat-bed on top of the bale byspreading gmwingmediumon the top of each bale.
Pockets or holes 3 to 4inches deep are createdby loosening and removing a small amount of thestraw and klling each holewith gmwingmedium. Thenumber ofpockets varydependingon the cmpsyou decide and the spacingneeded for production. TheWSU factsheet gives you aplanting guide.
For the flat-bed method, a34inch-deep layer of gmwingmedium works well. Oncethe gmwing medium is inplace, moisten the mediumand the bales.
Watering will be a crucialconsideration in bale gardening due to how quickly thewater moves through thestraw. The ideal would beto use drip irrigation ora soaker hose on timers.Since I have neither, I wouldconsider the suggestion komWSU to use a 2-liter sodabottle or a gallon milk container. Poke drip holes in thelid of the container and then$1 the container with waterand place it upside downabout 1inch awaykom thetarget plant. The water willdrip out slowly over the nextday or two dependingon thesize of the drip holes and thetemperature.
Monitoring the nutrientsupply will be important.Nitrogen dekciencyis verycommonin straw bale bedsbecause the micmbes areusingmuch of the availablenitmgen to break down thebale, and nutrients are alsolostkom leaching.
Ifthe oldest leaves beginto turn yellow before theirphysiological maturity, thisis a sign that mtmgen maybe limiting. Purplingis asymptom ofphosphorus dekciency, and brown leafedgesare a symptom of potassiumdekciency.
Organic fertilizers releasenutrients slowly, so theyare most benekciai whenapplied at planting. Inorganicfertilizers provide nutrientsat a faster rate and aie moreuseful for pmviding nutrients quiddywhen plantsare exhibiting symptoms ofnutrient dekciencies.Mykiend told me he"pur
chased his bales kom a localrancher, conditioned themper the article and plantedthem in zucchini, butternutand delicate squash withterrific results."

carefully crafted and cultivated demeanor,there are many currents flowing swiftlysome near the surface, others running deep

You leave little tochance when it comes to the image you project, so virtually everything is intentional. Thepart ofyou that is hidden awayunder the skin-- well, that is another story entirely!

CONGRESS-GOP CHALLENGESCouple's adoption of fosterchild causes family rift
to fight for 12 years. When it finally becametoo much for him, he took his own life.
"If you go online and research clinicaldepression — as I know you probably will— you will see what the symptoms are andthat there are treatments for it. Many timesthose treatments are successful. But sadly,in the case of Poppa, they weren't."
At that point let themask you any questions they
DEAR have, and assure them thatABBY you w i l l discuss any con
cerns they may have — andanything else — any time
DEAR ABBY: My husband, "Jeff," and Iare fostering a 17yearoldgirl we plan toadopt. Jejj"'s mother grew up in foster care,and after learning about her life and hardship, I felt we should help out in this way.
I am a stay-at-home mother with threeother children (6, 8 and 14), and we are a verytight-knit family, spending most of our timetogether. We love our fosterdaughter and look forward tomany good times together.
The problemis my sister.She's very opinionated andhas madeitobvious that sheisagainst our adopting another child. She feelsthe decision should have been made by ourentire family, including her and my parents.My husband and Idisagree, as do our kids.
My relationship with my sister has beenstrained for most of our lives, so her behaviordoes not come as a surprise. We would love tohearyouropinion about whatshe said.
DEAR JUST LOOKING: Since you asked,I think your sister must be living in somekind of alternate reality. If you and your husband want to enlarge your family, it's nobodyelse's business, and for her to say somethinglike what she did is the height of gall.
DEARABBY: After a 12-year strugglewith depression, my father committedsuicide in 2011. My three sons (ages 11, 7and 6) occasionally ask how their grandfather died. I usually tell them a generic,"I'oppajust got sick."I am not ashamed ofmy father or what he did, and I want to tellmy sons the whole truth sooner rather thanlater. What is the appropriate age to tell mychildren their grandfather took his own life?Any recommendations on how to phrase it?
— NO SECRETS IN MINNESOTADEAR NO SECRETS: When to tell them
will depend upon the level of maturity ofeach of your sons. Depression is an illnessias you know) that can run in families, sothey definitely have to be told, but becauseof the difference in their ages, it shouldn't bea blanket announcement.
A way to start the conversation would beto say something like:"I have told you yourgrandfather died because he got sick. Butwhat I didn't tell you, because you were soyoung, is that the illness he suffered fromwas clinical depression, which he had tried

they wish.
DEARABBY: Can you tell me how toselect a good marrmge counselor? Asking afriend for a referral is not an option.
DEAR DAN: If you have a physician youlike and trust, you could ask that person fora referral. Or, if you prefer, contact licensedmarriage counselors in your area. Then interview some of them to see which one youfeel comfortable confiding in.
DEARABBY: Last Christmas I didn'thear from several of my longtime friends. Idon't have a computer, but someone lookedup online obituart'es and was able to tell methey had passed away.
This Christmas I'll be 89. My health isn'tthe greatest, and I'm thinking ofincludinga note in my cards to the otherfew goodfriends I've known for 60years. I'd like to sayhow much their friendship has meant to mein case they don't hear from me again.
— NOT GETTINGANY YOUNGER INALBANY, N.Y.
DEAR NOT GETTING: I don't think itwould be morbid as long as you explain thereason you are including that message. Sayit like this: "During the last year I learnedthat several good friends had passed away.I regret that I wasn't able to tell them goodbye. Because none of us has a contract withGod, I want you to know how much yourfiiendship has meant to me all these years."

WASHINGTON — Congress'Republican leadersface stark tests as they fightto keep the governmentopenpastmonth's end, amid fears ashutdown could imperil theirparly's White House ambitions.
For House Speaker JohnBoehner, R-Ohio, anywmngmove could throw his veryfuture into question, openinghim to a threatened showdownvote on the floor of the Houseover whether he canremaininhis job. If thathappens, there isno certain outcome.
Senate Majority LeaderMitch McConnell, R-Ky.,must contend with the ambitions of several GOP presidential candidates. One ofthem, Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas,has made it his business tooppose the Kentuckian atevery turn, even taking tothe Senate floor to accusehim of lying.
Now Cruz is once againgoading a group of House teapartyers who have wreakedhavoc with the leadership inthe past.
Together they are demanding that must-pass spendinglegislation cut off all federalmoney for Planned Parenthood. The efforts followsthe disclosure of secretlyrecorded videos in whichPlanned Parenthood officialsare shown discussing howthey acquire fetal parts formedical research.
Such a bill could notpass theSenate and would face acertainveto fmm President BarackObama, raisirgthe pmspectofa parlial government shutdownlike the one twoyears ago in asimilar stnqge over the healthcarelaw.

With less than two weeksto the Oct. 1 deadline, thereremains no endgame — unless it's divine interventionin the form of an historicaddress from Pope Francis toa joint meeting of Congresson Thursday.
And for the majority ofcongressional Republicans,who have little interest inpalace intrigue or shutdowntalk, the infighting anddisarray serves only as adepressing reminder of theGOP's repeated failures tocapitalize on historic congressional majorities to advancea governing agenda thatcould help their party retakethe presidency. Nor does itbode well for how Republicans navigate fights yet tocome this year, including apotentially market-rattlingstruggle over raising the government's borrowing limit.

Such warnings are dismissed by the most unyieldingconservatives in the House,who insist that the only wayto force Obama to reckonwith their demands to defundPlanned Parenthood is byincludingitin must-pass spending legislation to keep thegovernment open. The tactichas failed twice before — tw oyears ago over the health carelaw and earlier this year in anunsuccessful revolt againstObama's executive actionslimiting deportations.
Nonetheless, some Republicans continue to insist thattheir leaders must hold firm,despite the prospect of anObama veto and even thoughMcConnell has repeatedlymade clear that legislation todefund Planned Parenthoodcannot pass the Senate's60-vote threshold, whichdemands compromise withminority Democrats. They reject such logic as capitulation.

SEATTLE LOSES AT GREEN BAY, STARTS SEASON 0-2 BRIEFING

GREEN BAY, Wis.
Given time in the fourthquarter, Green Bay Packersquarterback Aaron Rodgersfound the weakness in theSeattle Seahawks' defense.
Middle of the field. NoKam Chancellor at safety.Short passes turned into big
No second half collapseagainst Seattle on Sundaynight at Lambeau Field.
Rodgers and the defensecame up big in the fourthquarter of a 27-17 win in abruising, physical rematch oflast season's NFC title game.''We're 2-0. It was a great

The crowd erupted at theend, releasing nine months'

worth of fi ustration.The Packers blew a 16-0
lead against the Seahawks inthe NFC title game in January. They held on after givingup 13-3 lead at halNme onSunday.
The Seahawks, who fell tothe New England Patriotsin the Super Bowl last year,dropped to 0-2 for the firsttime since 2011.
"But you have to moveforward and realize there's alot of season left," said quarterback Russell Wilson, whothrew an interception in thefourth quarter.
Rodgers stayed characteristically calm under pressure.
He was a master at moving around to buy time. Hetook advantage of Seattlepenalties with long throwsfor big gains.
And in the fourth quarter,with the Packers down 17-16,
he orchestrated a 10-play,80-yard scoring drive, cappedby a 5-yard scoring pass toRichard Rodgers. A 2-pointconversion pass, also to Richard Rodgers, made it 24-17with 9:28 left.
Working without a huddle,Rodgers set up the score withshort passes to Randall Cobbfor gains of 18 and 19 yards,respectively. Ty Montgomeryturned another short passinto a 17-yard gain.
Rodgers and the coaching staf looked at film ofSeattle's defense before thedrive and found a hole.
"In the middle of theirdefense is where you can findsome soft spots, that's kind ofwhat we targeted there," thequarterback said.
On Seattle's next drive,Jayrone Elliott made alunging, one-handed interception of a short pass
&om Wilson with 6:50 left,one of the rare mistakes inthe second half for Seattle'sdual-threat quarterback. ThePackers i2-Ol cashed in withone of Mason Crosby's fourfield goals on the night for a10-point lead with 2 minutesremaining."I've got a bum finger, so
I had to catchit with onehand," Elliott said.
The defense held on whenit mattered in the fourthquarter after giving upchunks of yardage earlier inthe second half to dual-threatquarterback Wilson.
The Seahawks' last twoseries ended in turnovers.Besides Elliott's pick, MicahHyde recovered a fumbleby Fred Jackson with 22seconds left.W ilson was 19 of 30 for 206
yards, while running for 78yards on 10 carries.
Arizona State defeats New MexicoTEMPE, Ariz. iAPl — Arizona State finally found its
rhythm on offense. Now the competition gets a whole lottougher.
Mike Bercovici threw for three touchdowns and ran foranother and the Sun Devils overcame a sluggish start tobeat New Mexico 34-10 on Friday night.
Bercovici had touchdown passes of 14, 33 and 93 yardsand ran eight yards for the other Sun Devils TD.
The 93-yard play to Demario Richard matched thethird-longest pass in Arizona State history. Richard rushedfor 104 yards and his 151 yards receiving — on fourcatches — is a school record for a running back.
'That's a pretty good night," Sun Devils coach ToddGraham said.
The three TD passes came in a stretch when Bercovicicompleted 17 of19 for 271yards. Overall, he was 22 of37for 317 yards and was not intercepted.
''We dominated a team that we should dominate,"Graham said.'We got some things going in the second andthird quarter."
It was Arizona State's final nonconference game beforeopening Pac-12 play next Saturday at home against No.6 USC. Four of the next five games are against nationallyranked conference foes.

Coming otf a pair of disappointing losses to open theyear at CSU-Pueblo and Dixie State, the Wildcats usedthe full spectrum of scoring plays for their first-half pointbarrage. A pick-six interception return was the catalystfor a punt return touchdown, traditional rushing/passing scores, a safety and a field goal that later followed forCWU i1-2l.
Trey Shimabukuro, the senior quarterback who led theWolves from early deficits in the opening two games of theyear, could not find a rhythm in the first half. He bouncedback in the second half to throw for 293 yards on 23-of-46passing with a touchdown, but couldn't prevent the Wolvesfrom remaining winless in Ellensburg since 1998.

double-figure kills for the No. 7 Eastern Oregon Universityvolleyball team, and the Navy and Gold collected its sixthconsecutive triumph of the 2015 season with a three-setwin i25-18, 25-23, 25-17l over Northwest on Friday night.
"I'm proud of how consistent our girls played tonight,"said head volleyball coach Kaki McLean Morehead."Northwest is a tough team that served us really aggressively. Our defense, as w ell as our offense, did a great job offinding a way even in pressure situations."
Sophomore outside hitter Amanda Miller led the waywith 13 kills, while senior outside hitter Kendra De Hoogand sophomore right side hitter Isabelle Statkus tallied 11and 10 kills, respectively.

EUGENE — Jeff Lockiewas low-key about his firstcareer start, satisfied thathe helped his team win a
The backup for MarcusMariota last season, Lockiestepped in for this year'sstarter Vernon Adams andthrew for 228 yards andtwo touchdowns in No. 12Oregon's 61-28 victory overGeorgia State on Saturday.
"Just having my teammates' support going outthere really helped merelax, just knowing thatthese guys have got myback," Lockie said.
Adams sat out with abroken index finger onhis throwing hand, whichhe said had bothered himlate in the Ducks' loss lastweekend to Michigan State.
Last season, Lockiecompleted 21 of 28 passesfor 207 yards and a touchdown, playing off the benchfor Oregon's Heisman Trophy winner. He competedfor the starting quarterback job in fall camp withAdams, a senior transferwho arrived late becausehe needed to complete hisdegree at Eastern Washington.
Although Adams insistedhe could play and he wasdressed for the game, thedecision to sit him giveshim a chance to heal beforenext week's Pac-12 Conference opener against No. 21Utah.
Lockie, a junior, completed 23 of 31 passes without
an interception."I'm just going out there
and we're trying to win. Ithink if you ask Vernon, ifyou ask coach iMarkl Helfrich, I don't think anyonereally truly cares who's outthere as long as we're winning games," Lockie said.
Royce Freeman ran for101 yards and a touchdown for the Ducks i2-1l,who rebounded from lastweekend's loss at MichiganState. Aidan Schneideradded four field goals, allin the first half as Oregonbuilt a 33-7 lead.
Nick Arbuckle threwfor 318 yards and threetouchdowns, and freshman Penny Hart had ninecatches for 128 yards forthe Panthers i1-2l, whowere more than six-touchdown underdogs at AutzenStadium. Georgia Statewas hurt by turnovers,including a pair of Oregontouchdowns off an interception and a fumble.
"Give all the credit to Oregon, they did a great job,but when you're playing ateam of their caliber andyou hand it to them on asilver platter, it doesn't helpyour cause," Georgia Statecoach Trent Miles said.
Oregon jumped ahead onTyree Robinson's 43-yardinterception return withjust over a minute off theclock. It was the sophomoresafety's first career touchdown.
Schneider added twofield goals, from 26 and 40yards out, to give the Ducksa 13-0 lead.

In bracket play, Baker droppeda 26-24, 26-24 decision to WestonMcEwen.
Kaeli Flanagan dives for the ball but comes up short, while teammates Jordan Rudolph, left, and AmyWong preparefor the outcome.
sWe were excited, since we felt wecould do much better against themthan we produced Thursday night," saidPowder coach Marji Lind.
The Badgers defeated Adrian 25-11,25-16.
That set up the rematch with Cranein the title match.
sWe felt good about the day, gettingstronger and playing more and more asa solid unit as the day progressed," LindsaId.sWe made goals to correct the sim ple
errors we had been making since lastweekend and Thursday night. One ofthose is our communication while outon the court. As the day went on, thegirls communicated more and more effectively, which resulted in much betterball play and defensive coverage."
Lind said the Badgers knew that wasimportant, since three of the startingvarsity players were absent due to othercommitments and a fourth was out withinjury.

CORVALLIS — Trailingby a touchdown headinginto the second half, OregonState's Storm Barrs-Woodssaid the Beavers turned toone of the team's youngestplayers for inspiration.
True freshman quarterback Seth Collins is quicklygaining that type of pullwith the Beavers.
Collins ran for two touchdowns, passed for anotherand ran for 114 yards Saturday night to lead OregonState to a 35-21 win overSan Jose State.
Collins threw a 31-yardtouchdown passto JordanVillamin midway throughthe third quarter to tie thegame at 21-all, then put theBeavers i2-1l ahead for goodtwo minutes later with a4-yard touchdown run.
'This young man demands greatness. It's thelook in his eyes, the tone ofhis voice, we're ready to go,"Barrs-Woods said."That'sour leader, that's our captain. That's what changed.He gotus going. I see himmaking plays, and I had tomake plays."
Collins took it in stride."I'm just out there playing
football. It's nothing I thinkabout, like I'm going to getthis weird look in my eye. Ijust felt compelled to score,"said Collins, who completed13 of 25 passes for 135yards.
Barrs-Woods, absent form ost oflast week's 35-7 lossto Michigan with a kneeinjury, ran for 151 yardson 17 carries and a touchdown. The running backsaid speculation regardinghis Michigan status didn'tbother him.
"I treated it as a normalgame. With all due respect,I don't need an edge. I don't

Oregon State's first-yearcoach Gary Andersen waspleased with the Beavers'bounce back from Michigan,and response from his teamshowed after trailing 21-14at halfbme.
Oregon State's offenseclicked against the Spartans, particularly on theground. The Beavers had438 yards, including 303yards rushing. Defensively,the Beavers held San JoseState i1-2l to 253 yards.OSU had two second-halfinterceptions, one thatlinebacker Caleb Sauloreturned 41 yards for atouchdown late in the thirdquarter to give the Beaversa 35-21 lead."Overall, very proud of
the way we were able torun the ball. It was good toget Storm back. I thoughtour offensive line got betterand better as we went. Thedefense played very well.We got a pass rush going,"Andersen said.
San Jose State, whichhad been going with twoquarterbacks, played threeagainst Oregon State,partially out of necessity.Starter Kenny Potter completed 8 of 9 passes beforeleaving the game early inthe second quarter with anankle injury. Joe Gray, whostarted the Spartans' seasonopener, was ineffective andwas lifted late in the thirdquarter for Malik Watson.
Spartans coach Ron Caragher said they were cautiouswith Potter because of asimilar ankle injury he hadin junior college. Caraghersaid he was optimistic thatPotter would play againstFresno State.Gray had completed 4 of
10 passes for 20 yards whenhe was pulled.
