Performances of the fun, rollicking Shakespeare comedy'TwoGentlemen of Verona" started lastweekend at Riverside Park. Thefree show continues this weekendat 7 p.m. Friday and Saturday.

"It's an accessible play and a lotof fun," said Grant Turner, directorof the La Grande Shakespeare Co.putting on the show."For anyonedaunted by Shakespeare, this is agreat starter opportunity for them."

People are invited to bring a blanket and a picnic basket and enjoy 90minutes of fun entertainment.

The play includes a lot of theingredients of Shakespeare'sbetter-known plays. These includea woman disguised as a boy, botha witty and a dim-witted servantand a pair of star-crossed lovers.

Turner said'Two Gentlemen ofVerona" appealed to him because it'san early play by a young playwrightabout a bunch ofyoung people.

''We are a new theater companywith a bunch of young people,"Turner said."It seemed like a nicematch between Shakespeare'swork and reality. It's also veryfunny, very witty. I have an intelligent group of actors. These sortof verbal word-play exchanges aregreat for them. There's a great sortofbubbly innocence that circulatesthroughout the play that matcheswell with our company makeup."

The idea for Shakespeare inthe Park was to keep the new LaGrande Shakespeare Co. in thepublic eye. The company's firstproduction was "All's Well thatEnds Well," which was staged inthe Stage Door Theatre in April.

It's a reprise of a show that cameto the Crossroads Art Center inBaker City in June.

"It's a dangerous process to do,"said Cove artist Dimond ofhisvases."It's fraught with risks notonly to the pieces themselves butin dealing with iridized metallicsubstances."

to what they were doing but reallypopular and people purchased a lotof it," said Dimond, who operatesDimond Art Glass, a glass-blowingstudio in the hills above Cove. Theformer art professor at EasternOregon University was instrumental in founding that college's glassprogram. He's been at it for m orethan half a century.

"I was one of the original figuresin the contemporary art glassmovement starting back in 1963,"he said.

Boylan works as a partner withDimond in winter and in summersworks as a hot shop technicianin glass master Dale Chihuly'sStanwood, Washington, PilchukGlass School.

"Every year, people come therefrom all over the world, and Kevinworks with them and for them,"Dimond said.

For Nichols, it started witha dream and a garage. In tim e,he was able to leave his 20-yearcareer in the restaurant businessin the rear-view mirror. Today, heis a productive artist at Nichols Art Glass, founded in 2001in The Dalles and now runs a2,700-square-foot studio and gallery filled with blown glass pieces.

''What's amazing about Andy ishe does the hand-blown glass fishwithout any assistance," Dimondsaid."For most people, to do whathe does would require five or sixpeople working together."

Dimond and Boylan will continue their collaboration this winter.They intend once again to do thepopular Christmas tree ornamentworkshops, where people choosetheir own colors and patterns and

Dimond and Boylan are alsoconsidering adding a similar eventaround creating hand-blownpumpkins, from silver dollar toactual pumpkin size.

"People could come out andmake their own pumpkin," Dimond said."It would help us payfor gas and electricity. There's a lotof overhead in glass blowing.W e'd do it as a service to thecommunity."

Dimond continues to enjoy challenge himself to learn new twistson glass blowing.

Thomas E. Ricks"The Gamble: General David Petraeus andthe American Military Adventurein Iraq, 2006-2008" is the amountofbehind-the-scenes informationabout a pivotal time period inAmerican military history and inthe war in Iraq.

On its surface,"The Gamble"is a book about how a change instrategy in Iraq turned the conflictaround in terms of success. Butthere is far more to this story thanjust another military-jargon-ladentale of the feat of arm s.

The book pivots around the central theme ofaThe Surge," the infusion of reinforcements into Iraq ata time when the conflict was goingagainst the U.S. While, at the time,critics labeled the war to be goingagainst the United States, it was

probably more of a stalemate thanthe embers of defeat.

Yet that fact doesn't andshouldn't disregard the senseamong many that the war wasspinning out of control as carbombs and Iraq civilian deathsclimbed. Even with a large American troop presence, it appearedthat violence — including ethniccleansing — was the main callingcard inside Iraq and especially inBaghdad.

'The Gamble" provides a sensible, even nuanced, outline of themany problems the American military faced in Iraq up to the surgeof forces in 2007 and also pointsout that the eventual strategy attached to the infusion of reinforcements — counter-insurgencywas not a popular decision withinthe ranks of the U.S. Army.Others were also critical of the

need to add reinforcements to awar that appeared to be lost.

The best parts of the book— and overall it is a fine readillustrate the behind-the-scenesmaneuvering that went on between former and current officialsto find a method for a solution tothe Iraq war.

For example, one of the peoplewho pushed hard for a changeof strategy wasn't even in the

military. Instead, retired four starGen. John M."Jack" Keane usedhis mighty influence to push theBush Administration — and tosome extent, the U.S. Army — intoa strategic revision. While he wasnot alone — others also sought tofind a"new way forward" in Iraq— he was going against popularopinion in the military. The prevailing opinion then was to spareAmerican ground troops and giveas much of the task over to thereformed Iraqi military as quicklyas possible. It was seen as a way towrapping up the Iraqi experimentfor the U.S., but it was a strategythat was bankrupt. For one, theIraqi military wasn't ready to takeover the heavy lifting, and whileAmerican forces stood inside theirforward operating bases Iraqburned.

'The Gamble" is the kind ofbookthat will most likely be used as akey source in the future for furtherstudy on this particular piece ofour history. First published in 2009— when the war was still ongoing— it furnishes the reader with afirst glimpse ofhistory and is a fineexample of journalism.

The book also reveals a number of other key attributes to theconflict — including the fact thatsuccess was not so much aboutachieving lofty goals set years earlier but about adjusting those aimsto fit a new political and militaryparadigm — and furnishes thereader with a solid understandingof just how big a risk"The Surge"

The book, at 300-plus pages,isn't a lengthy or boring historicaldissertation about a conflict manyAmericans would soon forget butan in-depth, concise report onan important piece of our recentpast. If as an American you wantto understand how the modernAmerican military worksbehind the scenes, this is a goodbook.

O. Tribes converge on pow wow groundsTamkaliks Pow wowfeatures dance, music,food and ceremony

Longhouse historyThe longhouse is the

center for religious and "firstfood" ceremonies, said JoeMcCormack. "In terms of how"first foods" are served, thetradition is they are each celebrated as they ripen or areharvested in the watershed.

Tribal bands throughoutthe inland Northwest andalong the Columbia River traditionally all had longhouses,McCormack said. The hadcommunal living areas, andit was where celebrations oftradition were handed down.

In the longhouse, youngtribal members learned tomake tools out of stone,wood and horns as well asbaskets and water containersout of animal stomachs. Often, these community centerswere built in river bottoms,McCormack said.

Today the longhouse ismore a church, he said, honoring first foods in the watershed and thanking the Creatorfor providing sustenance.

One of the first thingscelebrated in the spring, McCormack said, are root feasts."The women would open thefields to root digging."

Whereas the elder womendetermine the time to harvest, the elder men determine when it is time to fishand hunt, McCormack said.

"No one fished until thefirst salmon arrived and wascelebrated. These all stemfrom traditions of the longhouse handed down."

He described the longhouse as looking like a longtipi.

WALLOWA — Twenty-fiveyears after the first Wallowa BandNez Perce Pow Wow and Friendship Feast was held at the Wallowa High School, the Nez PerceHomeland Project hosts its annualcelebration of Native Americanculture at the Tamkaliks groundsoutside of Wallowa this weekend.

Since 1998 when the HomelandProject acquired its own property,improvements have been made toaccommodate hundreds of dancers,vendors and guests to the weekendcelebration of culture and tradition.

In 1999, the dance arbor wasbuilt by Bruce Coutant and GlenMcDonald, said Board ChairmanJoe McCormack. The arbor is thecenter of activity during Tamkaliks where dancing, naming andmemorial services and the SundayFriendship Feast are held.

Three years ago, an outdoorsalmon barbecue was built nearthe arbor and a state-of-the-artcommercial kitchen was constructed with private donations. Now theHomeland Project is ready to breakground on the construction of alonghouse. An incredible fundraising effort raised substantial funding fiom some of Oregon's biggestgrant-making foundations. Localdonations topped off the moneyneeded and now McCormacksaid the board is waiting on finalchanges to the architectural design.

"This has been at least a 12year process," McCormack said.

He said ground should bebroken for the longhouse by latesummer and could be finished bythe time winter arrives.

To further the celebration ofwomen in the tribe, this yearthere will be special recognitionfor the Nez Perce descendants of

rosemary, served on a bed of w iltedarugula and toasted garlic.

The simple comfort of Yankee potroast surrounded with caramelizedrooted vegetables laced with richbrown gravy. These are all visions ofbeef we love and enjoy, relying on akey ingredient — great beef.

In the pursuit of understanding beef, there are volumes in

many languages which could beresearched. I recommend"PureBeef" by chef Lynn Curry. Onceyou have this basic information,secrets to recipes for both beef andlarge game will start to unfold.

Local grass-fed cattle, livingtheir leisure life of freedom, shouldproduce tender meat. This, unfortunately, is not a dependable condusion. I am not a rancher and do nothave the experience or expertiseneeded to raise cattle, but as a chefwith a history ofraising, butcheringand preparing beef, I would suggestsome considerations in achievinggreat meat for your plate.First, breed. Select a breed known

for producing quality beef There aremanynotable meatbzeeds regionally throughout the world. Yourrancher can help you decide on aheifer or steer. Gender may matter.

Second, feed. What is importantto you. Organic? Grain fed? Grassonly? The feed and pasture practices you wish for your beef needto be decided before you proceed.

Third, age and weight. Yes, this

is the time to consider the age andweight. Why? You need to coordinate harvest with the desired sizeand optimal season. Maximizeyour investment by getting themost meat possible, but harvestdate may be more important thanthe size of your beast.

Fourth, harvest date. For quality100 percent range-fed beef, harvest dates are key. Harvest in thefall, after the summer grasses, ripewith their seed and wild grain,have fattened cattle for the winterand before the stress of winter lifebegins taking its toll.

Never harvest in the spring,when recovery from the long, leanwinter has just begun and thegreen spring grasses are rebuilding the quality of your animal. Ifyou desire the greater marblingof grain-fed beef, coordinate thegrain supplements to maximizethe fat gain in the fall.

Now wehate to miss any of their winepairing or holiday meals.Each summer we try and getto one of their Friday nightmeals, unique each week of theseason, and at least one of theirsignature Hungarian dishesserved three nights a week.Most recently we had a familydinner on a Sunday night withpork schnitzel, sweet and sourred cabbage and cheddar augratin potatoes made with fourcheeses including smokedgouda. Since porkcan bepaired with red or white wine,we chose an Oregon pinot noirand aWashington riesling fromtheir ample list. Dionne andMichaelVali are accomplishedpastry chefs and it's well worthordering dessert, even if youhave to share. They sell pastrieson the weekends. Get thereearly; they often sell out before
