Michael Padgett and his ex-wife Kristina said they are at a loss for how and why the shooting occurred. The letter states they taught Jared Padgett and their other children the values of compassion,forgiveness,patience and love in Jesus Christ. 'These were all natural attributes we observed within Jared daily," the statement said."Knowing that these are the values that we have taught our children, we are horrified and distraught by the actions perpetrated by our son."

Blackhawk Trail Lane initially ran from the old community of Oro Dell, now the northwest edge of La Grande, to what is now Riverside Park. Today, the road follows a similar course, ending about 150 yards north of Riverside Park. The road was named for Chief Blackhawk of the Umatilla Indian tribe. Chief Blackhawk and members of the Umatilla tribe regularly came into the Grande Ronde Valley. The men would fish and hunt, and the women searched for huckleberries and other foods. Chief Blackhawk was popular with settlers in the area and in the late 1870s won their lasting respect when he SeeMason / Page5A

Plenty of winners and losers in Oregon's property tax system By Elon Glucklich WesCom News Service

Oregon's complex property tax system, where constitutional amendments cap tax hikes for schools and local governments, means cities and schools across the state often collect thousands, even millions, less than officials first thought. A new report by the League of Oregon Cities shows just how big a bite Oregon measures 5 and 50 have taken out of money for services. Localgovernments across the state have lost out on more than $210 million in revenue since July, The League of Oregon Cities report, released earlier this month, shows. Backers of the tax caps say that's just fine: The revenue stays in the pockets of

taxpayers, giving them a larger measure of financial security while boosting their ability to spend. But the city association, which lobbies the Oregon Legislature on behalf of m unicipali ties across the state,argues the capsrepresent a sortofbroken promise to taxpayers, who chose to support the schools and public services through tax hikes. 'You have so many voters who have voted to approve new levies," Chris Fick, a policy analyst for the League of Oregon Cities, said, adding that 16 of the 21 local optionleviesproposed across Oregon in last month's election passed. "A lot of people don't realize the full amount of those levies probably won't be collected," Fick said.

Principal named to new district position By Dick Mason The Observer

Reta Doland, an educator who came to La Grande in 2010 from the Land of the Midnight Sun, is set to shine on the curriculum front. Doland, completing her fourth year as principal of Central Elementary School, has been named the La Grande School District's new curriculum and federal programs director. "Mrs. Doland's experience as an administrator and demonstratedleadership in the La Grande School District made her a top candidate. This position will be a great fit for Mrs. Doland and forthedistrict,"said La Grande School District Superintendent Larry Glaze. Doland, who served as an educator in Alaska for six years, will be succeeded by an educator who is no stranger to the elementary school. Bruce Kevan, who was Central' sprincipalfrom 2000 to 2010, has been named

interim principal for 2014-15. Since his retirement, Kevan has been a substitute teacher and substitute administrator in the La Grande School District.

Fire hydrant testing and maintenance Once again it is time to start the annual fire hydrant testing and maintenance program. The City of La Grande Public Works Department will be conducting these tests this year starting June 11, 2014.

If Oregon residents were searching for a sign the summer fire season is here, they saw firsthand evidence last week in the central part of the state when a wildfire erupted in the Bend area. Fire crews have managed to contain the manmade Two Bulls wildfire, but not before the blaze charred nearly 7,000 acres, forced the evacuation of more than 100 people from their homes and has cost to date nearly $5.7 million to fight. Quite a start to what is already expected to be a costly fire season. And if that wasn't enough, abnormal conditions this spring prompted the Oregon Department of Forestry to declare the oKcial start of fire season in the region last week. Typically fire season starts in late June or early July. Northeastern Oregon has been comparatively tranquil so far, although lightning started a couple of small blazes in southern Baker County on the last

day of May. Matt Howard, protection supervisor at ODF's Wallowa Unit oKce in Wallowa, said conditions, especially at elevations below about 3,000 feet, are conducive to combustion. All of this should remove any doubt that residents must be cautious and remember that summer is here and so is fire season. That means we must be vigilant and use common sense. Fires can severely damage land and structures and harm life. Now is the time to focus on fire precautions and safety. Ignoring these perils could lead to a local disaster. We urge residents with questions regarding fire safety to contact their local fire departments and gain as much information as possible. Fires during the summer can seem inevitable, but many can be prevented.

We, the everyday citizens, do not have access to the facts. Would we want to be charged in the media? Do we pick a media of 12 asin 12jurors?Who decides? I served my country for 22 years. I'm proud of that service and never ducked or ran. However, I saw some who did, under very unique circumstances. It was not my place to judge them. If Bergdahl is charged, a military law office will make that determination, not us. They need to getallthefactsfi rst.

Hawkins: Barreto's reasons not rooted in racism To the Editor: This is in response to Virginia Garcia's letter to the editor in the Thursday, May 29, East Oregonian, titled "Barreto's attacks on illegal immigrants shows ignorance." During the election campaign, Greg Barreto was targeted asbeing a racist. Most ofthese attacks stem from a question that was presented to him and John Turnerata forum in Pendleton that I attended with Greg. That's right, as Lars Larson would say, "I have a dog in the fight." At the forum, Morrow County Sheriff Ken Matlack asked where each candidatestood on the drivercard law coming up for a vote. Greg Barreto answered by saying he opposed driver cards for immigrants and John Turner said he supported them. As a result of M r. Barreto' sopposition to the driver cards, the media and alotofotherfolks, including Ms. Garcia, have labeled him a racist ,which isfarfrom fact.

Greg Barreto's stance on the driver cardissue isbased on legality and not racism. If an immigrant is here legally, then, fine, get your driver's license and be totally legal. I find it interesting that the Barretos have tried to present some facts to the media regarding this allegation of him being a racist. Up to this point, the m edia has neglected tosetthe record straight. Fact one: Greg Barreto's dad, Jacinto iToml Barreto, was 100 percent Hispanic and his mom is 100 percent German. This tells me that Greg is half-Hispanic

Smith: Time to hold state

government accountable To the Editor: I suppose the Oregon Department of Forestry has been watching the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife as it carries out its plans to control game and introduce dangerous species into the Oregon forests and grasslands, without any accountability and responsibility, mostly against the wishes of the local populations. And so ODF decided that they could do anything they wanted to do as well, and that if ODFW got away with it so could ODF. Today, without any prior public notification or discussion, the ODF implemented a no-notice statewide fire season, leaving a great number of Oregonresidents outraged,privately and publicly calling into question their ancestryand privateinterpersonal practices. Today, I spoke on the telephone with ODF, whose representative said they were all surprised that no notice was given to them either. When is the Oregon public going to stand up to the tyranny of Oregon state government departments and hold them accountable, force them to obey state law and regulations, and actually serve the Oregon public they are paid to serve?

Vietnam veteran Donald Remick, right, pictured with Union CountyVeterans Services Officer Byron Whipple, received help with housing from the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs after he found himself broke and stranded in La Grande last November.

He interviewed and got a jobinfood preparation and event catering. He's worked at that eversince. ''When they hired me at the university, that's what enabled me to gain independence again," Remick said."I can't say enough good things aboutAramark. When they looked at me, they didn't just see a 66-year-old man." Looking back on his experience in La Grande, Remick said he is grateful to Whipple, to his Aramark boss, Monir Desouky, and to the community for all its help. He added that he has no plans to leave. "People have been so nice. I can't think of anything bad to say about La Grande," he said. The VA is a government agency that seems always to be battling criticism, accusations that it doesn't always live up to its obligations taking care of veterans. But both Remick and Whipple say their experiences with VA have been positive. They believe that much of the criticism is unwarranted. "I can go to the local office and say I need transportation to the medical facility in Walla Walla, and they arrange it," Remick said, adding,"I am not forgotten." Whipple said that because the VA is a huge organization serving millions, response to a crisis like Remick's can be slow. But care for veterans does catch up, he added. "The VA works in La Grande and it works well," he said.

Non-traditional path leads to great reward for

EOU student leaders onored Submitted to The Observer

Submitted to The Observer

Before Sheryln Roberts became acollege student, she raised a family, enjoyed a successful career and fulfilled her curiosity en route to exoticdestinations. Her 21 years as a corporate travel agent had definite perks, but when the company she workedforclosed its La Grande office Roberts sought change. So she began a different kind of journey — one that brought her to Eastern Oregon University — and it is opening doors for her and the community. As the 2014 EOU President's Scholar, Roberts is celebratingthecompletion of her degree in anthropology/ sociology, and she is equally excited about beginning a new career helping others. Roberts was recently hiredby afledgling program in Union County called C.A.R.E., which stands for Community Access for Resources and Effectiveness, and is modeled after a successful initiative in Umatilla County. The position is tailor-made for Roberts' newfound passion for social welfare, the focus ofher studies at EOU. She credits the employment

opportunity to the education she received from the university's professors R oberts

"Bill Grigsby and Anna Maria Dill are my champions," Roberts said. Grigsby, associate professor of sociology, and Dill, retiringdirectorofStudent Success and Engagement, encouraged Roberts to become EOU's Student Resource Advocate — a role she filled for her practicum — but also because she sincerely cares.

She collaborated with the Sociology Department, Student Success and Engagement and the Multicultural Center to establish the practicum, and it will continue next year. "Sheryln's work as the Student Resource Advocate was groundbreaking," Grigsby said."She created something oflasting value out of nothing. Sometimes it takesa socialscience major to taunt the laws of

It had been 23 years since she graduated &om La Grande High School, but her husband Jess and daughters Jessica and Jordyn were behind her all the way. Jess even decided to pursue his bachelor's in mathematics. As a couple, their commitment is strengthened as they completetheirdegrees together this term. From hghthearted hmes with her niece and nephew volunteeringto be m odelsfor a stage makeup class, to finding her rhythm with African drumming, to struggling with a research paper that ultimately garnered high praise &om her professor, Roberts hopes her experiences will inspire others to facetheirfears. "It's intense walking into a classroom with students who are fiiends with your daughters," she said."I thought I didn't belong in this world, but it was nothing like what I expected. I was included and have really taken that to heart." Roberts' goalnow isto provide her C.A.R.E. clients with that same sense of security.

Student leaders and organizations at Eastern Oregon University were recognized during the 2014 Student Leadership Awards June 5.

Spurs win NBA

Observer staff

championship SAN ANTONIO (AP) — Tim Duncan, Manu Ginobili and Tony Parker, the winningest trio in NBA postseason history, shared hugs. Players wrapped themselves in flags from around world, a reminderthatthe San Antonio Spurs look far beyond the border to build champions, as confetti fell from above. Painfully denied 12 months ago by the Miami Heat, this victory party was worth the wait. "It makes last year OK," Duncan said. The Spurs finished off a dominant run to their fifth NBA championship Sunday night, ending the Heat's two-year title reign with a 104-87 victory that wrapped up the series in five games. "We had a great first quarter, but from that point on they were the better team, and that's why they're the champions in 2014," said LeBron James, who led the Heat with 31 points and 10 rebounds.

Tony Gwynn passes away SAN DIEGO (AP) — Hall of Famer Tony Gwynn has died of cancer at 54. Gwynn's sweet left-handed swing made himone of San Diego's bestloved athletes. He was nicknamed "Mr. Padre" during his 20-year major league career. He had been on a medical leave from his job as baseball coach at San Diego State, his alma mater, since late March. Agent John Boggs said Gwynn died Monday in suburban Poway. Gwynn had two operations for cancer in his right cheek between August 2010 and February 2012. The second surgery was complicated, with surgeons removing a facial nerve because it was intertwined with a tumor inside his right cheek.

COLLEGE TRACICAND FIELD

re onwinsnationatrac an ie tite • Fleet successfully defends NCAA championship The Associated Press

EUGENE — Oregon senior Mac Fleet leaned at the finish line in the 1,500 meters, just to ensure he defended his NCAA championship. Arizona's Lawi Lalang was right on his heels. "I could see Lawi's hands right here — he's got that big arm swing — all the way to the end," Fleet said, gesturing over his shoulder.

Fleet's victory Saturday at the NCAA track and field championships denied Lalang a ninth national title in his final college race. Fleet pulled ahead down the stretch and bore down for the final 50 meters to win in a personal-best 3 minutes, 39.09 seconds, with Lalang closebehind in 3:39.13 to the delight of the Ducks' home crowd at Hayward Field.

Brandon Cederholm enjoyed a solid performance at the Smokey Mountain Wood Bat Invitational in Caldwell, Idaho, over the weekend, hitting safely in each of the team's five wins. Cederholm's best performances included going 3-for-4 from the plate in victories over Eagle, Idaho, and Kuna, Idaho. Cederholm drove in four runs during the tournament.

"Big lean at the end," Fleet said. "I wanted to make sure." Fleet's victory helped push the Oregon men (88 points) to the team's first outdoor national title since 1984. Texas A&M (75 points) won the women's title. Fleet became the first man to repeat in the 1,500 since Seneca Lassiter of Arkansas in 1997 and

waterin Gardeners commit routine acts of crimeagainstplantsand most areaccomplished without the gardener ever knowing it. Take watering, for instance. No, this isn't about the wilted one who simply wasn't watered in a timely manner. It's about common watering practices that aren't healthy for the plant. Spotlight focus is on overhead watering. Overhead watering drowns pollen inot to mention the beneficials that may have been deluged with the initial burst of water) and for flowering plants it frequently makes the stems break as they bend with the weight of the water. A tremendous amount of water is also lost through evaporation with overhead systems and frequently"edge" plants may be missed altogether. To prevent this from happening we use a"bubbler" — it can put out as much or as little water as we need or want. Diking and trench building can also enhance water from a bubbler when you use it in conjunction with gravity. Drip systems are also advisable forwater conservation and once set up can last for years with little routine maintenance. A timer connected to your irrigation system can be a practical device especially if you will be away for an extended period of time. Frequent shallow watering is also detrimental to healthy plant development. For optimal plant health a good root system is essential, the deeper you can get them to go, the happier they are.

A lupine plant coated with aphids. By Lisa Britton ForWesCom News Service

Lupine is one of my favorite wildflowers, and I always delight in seeing the first flower stalks in varying hues of purple and yellow. And it's widely adapted — lupine thrives in the hot sagebrush country as well as in the cooler mountains. The domestic variety grows larger — regular watering probably helps — with massive spikes of flowers in dark purples and pretty pinks. I've admired lupine in yards around Baker City for quite some time, and last summer finally purchased some plants. See Aphids/Page 2B

DORY'S DIARY DQRQTHYSWART FLESHMAN

Aboy's fake facial hair spurs memories Folks sometimes ask me where I get my ideas of something to put in my column ii.e. or aka-diaryl each week and how long it takes to write it. A goodexample ofthathappened recently while I was eating in a restaurant and a woman and two small boys came in. The smaller of the two boys I would guess as being around eight years old, but I have a hard time with figuring out ages on people, especially children, for they seem so grown-up these days. That this little boy wanted to be an adult was obvious, for he wore a painted-on mustache. While the woman ordered their food, mother or possibly a young grandmother, the boys plopped themselves down ina booth near me, theyounger of the two immediately beginning to play with the salt and pepper shakers belying his attempt to look mustache older. I must have a mean-looking face, for the older boy, with a glance at me, took the shakers and put them neatly at the far end of the table. Then they behaved nicely, awaiting their meal. What does all of this have to do with a subject to enter into my diary? See Dory /Page 9B

Cashew nut sour cream.

• Here are three easy recipes, all of which use fermented juice, an important source of nutrition By Karen Kain There is a new interest and effort in eating like we used to, back in the day. Fermented foods arepartofthatinterest. Today I am sharing with you threeeasy recipesthatalluse fermented juice, which is really good for your gut. Proper gut health is critical to your overall health. Lacto-fermented, or cultured, vegetables are agreatwa y toget the beneficial"good" bacteria into your gut. You should eat some form oflacto-fermentation in every meal. Recently, I was at a seminar in Chicago for Autism, a few days werededicated to cooking healthy recipes. I was lucky to sit

in and learn how easy it can be to make your own condiments. Ihave been interested for years in making mayonnaise from scratch. Thisrecipecallsfor a few different types of oil but I only used olive oil. It turned out great, but I found it a bit expensive, using an entire small jar of high-grade olive oil. The key to making mayonnaise is drizzling the olive oil in slowly. Secondly, I made ketchup. This recipe is sorich and tasty I find I only need a small amount to get the full flavor. Savingthe bestforlast...I m ade gluten freecasein free Cashew Nut Sour Cream. I am a fan! It is delicious. I found it strange how the ingredients

come togetherperfectly really mirroring the correct texture and flavor of dairy sour cream. My niece said, "It is better than sour cream!" I think the trick with this recipe is to make sure you soak the cashew nuts over night. As always I would love to hear what you are cooking.

Homemade I.actoFermentedMa onnafse 3 Organic egg yolks,you can use chicken or duck eggs 1Teaspoon Dijon mustard 1Tablespoons raw apple cider vinegar 1/2Tablespoon fresh lemon juice 1Tablespoon of cultured juice from a fermented vegetable (see our

Blend for 30 seconds. Keep the food processor running and SLOWLY add the oils. This is key to a successful result. As slowly as possible drizzle the oil. It will emulsify into mayonnaise. To lactoferment, leave it out in an air-tight Iar or container at room temperature for 7 hours. Then refrigerate. Enjoy! SeeCondiments/Page 2B

You can rely on the ladybugs that just come to your garden, or you can purchase them. Ifyou do buy them, Cowan saystorelease the ladybugs at night, preferrably near a plant with aphids.

'The doubles are very showy but it is more difficult forthe beestogetaccessto the pollen and nectar," she said."Bees also like blue, purple and yellow-colored flowers."

I only gave the hollyhock one more dose of the seaweed extract after that and it is now covered in buds gettingready to give me another summer of peachcoloredblossoms.

Best toletexgertshandle a garagethat'sleaning ByAlan J. Heavens The Philadelphia Inquirer

: I have a 75-year-old, one-car, detached wooden garage that has startedtolean.What do Ineed to do to s 'ghten it up? I am really handy and would like to do it myself if I could, but I have nowhere to even start. : Your e-mail arrived as I was watching an episode of"Emergency," in hich Engine 51 rescued a man trappedby abeam thatfellw hen he and a friend were attempting to do to his hillside house what you are asking about. In his case, well, it's Los Angeles, and that stufFhappens all the time. In your case, there areseveralreasons thegarage could be starting to lean, including rot, termite damage, shifting soil from heavy rains, or this winter's freeze-thaw cycle. There also is an element of danger involved in simply looking for the cause.

DORY Continued ~om Page 1B It wasn't the behavior question but the sight of the pretend mustache that brought old times to mind, and for the next little while I wrote in my notebook companion. It wouldn't take long and I would "tweak" it later. As I looked at the makebelieve mustache, I thought of his becoming a man in his own right who might tire of hair growing on his face without help and how he might tire of shaving it ofF every morning, for by then, fashions may have changed and fur faces might be out of vogue again. From his coming adulthood dilemmas came a flashback of pictures and movies I had seen of the years even earlier than my own when men had a shaving mug in their bathroom. At the rim of the mug was a little lip with a small drainage hole in it. The lip was for keeping a bar of shaving soap dry abovethemug holding water, for running water in homes wasn't necessarily common like it is now. The man gettingready to shave would fill the mug with water and dip a handledsoft-bristled brush into it, then work it over the bar of soap until he had foamy suds which he lathered all over his beard. Since there was no such thing asan electricrazor,he would flip open the straightedged razor in preparation of shaving. For safety the blade would have been encased within the handle. He may havesoftened his beard a bit with a hot towel on his face, but more than likely he just brushed the soapfoam over the stubble of a beard and began shaving with the long blade of the straight-edgedrazor against his cheek just below his sideburn hair at the lower tip of his ear. With short, downward strokes, he would remove the growth, leaving soft pink skin, hopefully without a bleeding cut where he nicked himself. If it did appear, he reached for a smallpiece oftissue to stem the flow. After shaving was completed, he would show his expertise by how many littlepatches adhered to his face for the moment, but in the meantime he would clean the razor on paper or cloth between strokes, wiping away soap and whiskers and beginning again. Washing the remaining frothy soap from his face with cold water from a basin and dried on a towel, he would splash a bit of astringent liquid on his tender facetoclose the pores and smell good. Men did want to smell good as well as their lady counterparts did with their perfumes. Then with a clean shirt,

The owner of that firm was no stranger to such issues, having replaced a lot of porch structures in my neighborhood. Danger aside, do you have any carpentry skills?
