Still Proudly Flying

Art Lumley, pictured here, gave an interesting presentation about the history and current status of the Civil Air Patrol to his Jacksonville-Applegate Rotary Club on July 18. Lumley, a former Naval Air Commander, is the current president of the local chapter of the Military Officers Association of America as well as a past president of his Rotary Club. Today, Lumley is still flying aircraft, piloting a Cessna for the Rogue Valleys Civil Air Patrol, based from a hangar at the Rogue Valley International Airport. The CAP was officially recognized and then bolstered shortly after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941. The initial mission of the CAP was to patrol 1200 miles of US coastline from Connecticut to Texas and search for German submarines which sank more than 200 US cargo ships during World War II. Since, the CAP has expanded its mission and participates in search and rescue missions, administers a cadet program and provides extensive nationwide aerospace education. Lumleys talk included photographs of CAP planes from the early years, captured German submarines, modernday CAP Cessna airplanes and the CAP hangar installation at the Rogue Valley Airport. As recently as two weeks prior to his talk, Lumley found himself assisting local law enforcement from the cockpit in a search and rescue mission. In addition to search and rescue, todays CAP pilots actively assist the Jackson County Sherriff Department with radio communication relay needs and surveillance for illegal drug activity.

News From Britt Hill by

Donna Briggs, Britt Executive Director
ts been a great summer so far on the Britt Hill. The concert with Robert Plant and the Sensational Space Shifters was epic, and Rodrigo y Garbiela set a new bar, to name just two. Thanks for coming out to the concerts, and for all your support throughout the summer. August brings more exciting concerts and events. The population of Jacksonville increases each August as the members of the Britt Orchestra come from all over the country to make music on the Britt Hill for three weeks. Orchestra musicians stay with host families, eat in local restaurants and are truly immersed in Jacksonville during their stay. This years Classical Festival is a momentous one, as we audition three finalists for the position of Music Director and Conductor. Those finalists are MeiAnn Chen, Teddy Abrams and David Danzmayr. Each will spend a week in residence at Britt, leading the Orchestra in two concerts, and getting to know the Britt community. This is our first search in more than twenty years, and the finalist we select will be only the fourth Music Director in Britts 50-year history. Be sure to come out to a concert each weekend, and dont miss your chance to be part of this special passing the baton season. Special thanks to Cutler Investment Group for once again coming aboard as a season sponsor of the Classical Festival.

The camp will be led by the innovative ensemble Project Trio, and students ages 8-18 will focus on modern techniques of chamber music, using Project Trios F.I.R.E (Fundamentals of Improvisation, Rhythm and Ensemble) technique. Project Trio will also be featured in the closing night concert of the Classical Festival, our popular Symphony Pops night on Sunday, August 18. All tickets for the Symphony Pops night are just $5. Its a great night to bring your family and friends out to hear our wonderful Britt Orchestra. Following the Classical Festival, we have many more concerts to round-out the summer. Acts include the singersongwriter Brandi Carlile, a Britt favorite.

The alt-rock band Cake returns for a great night of rock, and well end the month with Tegan & Sara, the duo of identical twin sisters who have become a pop sensation.

The Unfettered Criticby

Paula Block Erdmann & Terry Erdmann
Return with us now to those thrilling days of yesteryear...
he mythical ouroboros is a serpentine creature that devours its own tail, symbolizing the cyclical nature of existence, and the phoenix-like eternal return. Its a cool creatureand yet... Like the ouroboros, the motion picture industry regularly eats its own tail as it recycles former cinematic successes in the hopes of reaping eternal monetary rewards. This summer, producers are attempting to dazzle us with new spins on old stories, stories that may indeed be worth retelling. We just wish they were better at it. Take Star Trek Into Darkness. In 2009, filmmakers re-launched the Sixties-era Star Trek franchise with fresh young faces and wall-to-wall action. It was an entertaining effort that made money, so they were invited to continue with this summers sequel. Rather than go to the trouble of writing a compelling new story, they recycled an old one: 1989s Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. Unfortunately, they made a Cliffs Notes version of that great film, leaving out anything that had to do with rationale, emotion or even common sense. They gave us action, a familiar storyline, some well-remembered lines of dialogue and little else, other than a longing to rewatch the original. Take Man of Steel, an attempt to bring Superman to the screen again. Since l933, Superman has embodied a wonderful, and uniquely American, mythology the ultimate legend of a foreigner who finds acceptance and success in this great nation. Whether portrayed in the 1950's by George Reeves, or in the 70's and 80's by Christopher Reeve, the story has remained suitable for adults and children alike. All had interesting takes on his Kryptonian origins and his relationship with his extended familyboth on the farm and in the office on Earth. But while Man of Steel goes through the motionswe see him leave Krypton, meet his adoptive parents on Earth, and get introduced to future co-worker Lois Lanethe movies clear motivation is the boom factor. Filmmakers throw computer-generated superhuman bodies through one skyscraper after another, in the process harming countless regular human beings on the ground below. Kids (assuming you bring them) will learn that
its okay to break stuff as long as youre on the side of good. Take The Lone Ranger. This new production loyally recalls the radio and television era Western heros origin: his brothers death at the hands of the villainous Butch Cavendish, why he donned a mask, how he acquired his horse, Silver, and his bullets (also silver), and why his faithful companion Tonto calls him kemosabe. We actually liked this film, despite its many flaws, but as an extension of Disneys Pirates of the Caribbean franchise rather than a faithful retelling of those thrilling days of yesteryear. Johnny Depps Tonto is a close cousin of pirate Jack Sparrownot

Don & Debbie Tollefson

a bad thing, but not really honoring the Western tradition. As funny as it may be, and as delightful as the action sequences are, The Lone Ranger is as violent as Man of Steel. When people died in the Pirates films, they popped back up because theyd been dead in the first place. In Ranger, mortal beings die: Indians, ranchers, farmers, soldiers, Rangers. Theres no Boot Hill big enough to bury them. And like Into Darkness and Man of Steel, you could run a transcontinental railway through the plot holes. The filmmakers didnt seem to care, or maybe they assumed we wouldnt notice. The heroes in all three films fight for truth, justice and the American (or Federation) way. We just wish theyd fought for better moviesperhaps one about the ouroboros. Hollywood would need only to look in the mirror for inspiration. Paula and Terry each have long impressivesounding resumes implying that they are battle-scarred veterans of life within the Hollywood studios. Theyre now happily relaxed into Jacksonville.

Jacksonville Review
August 2013
Up Close and Personal with Local Artist, Randall Grealish

his month, the Jacksonville Review is turning the tables and focusing on one of its most popular columnists, Randall Grealish. Randall, an accomplished copper metal artist and painter, lives here in Jacksonville with his wife Tara. Hes been writing for the Review for almost a year, so we thought it was time our readers learned a little bit more about him and his art. Although gifted with raw copper, a variety of patinas, paint and canvas, Randall is quick to point out that, Music has always been a really big part of my creative processits just as important as any of the raw metal or paint materials I work with... theres no way I could create anything artistic without the aid of music. As a kid, Randall aspired to be a musician but never took the time to learn it well enough to make it his profession. Not focusing more on learning the academic/theory-side of music or spending the necessary time practicing is probably one of my greatest regrets in life. But fortunately for me as an artist, there are plenty of great musicians out there that did take the time to learn their craft. It is his beloved music that helps Randall reach his full potential as a metal artist and painter. Interestingly, as a kid I became very influenced by the theatrics and visual aspect of such rock & roll bands as Kiss, Iron Maiden and Judas Priest. Id sit in class and copy their band logos on my notebooks, on classroom desks and even on myself! With art and music as mutual interests, Randall the high school student copied album covers as art class assignments and would spend hours locked in his room just drawing away and enjoying the music. Today, even when writing columns
Eighth in a series of artist profiles

for the Review, painting or creating a metal piece, the sound of music fills the room. I know one would think the sound of rock and roll would distract me from my work, but its just the oppositethe energy of the music transfers directly to the process of creating a piece of my art. Randalls current discipline is working with copper assemblage art, as its known in the trade. I cut out, shape and patina copper and then assemble it into wall artworking just as if it was a framed painting to be hung on the wall. As for his choice of metal, hes often asked why he chose to work with copper to which he responds, All I know is that Ive always been attracted to the variety of colors naturally occurring with copper and that I can also manipulate it by a variety of means. The artist says he just follows his artistic instinct whenever possible. As for why so many people are attracted to copper artwork, Randall offers, People seem to be naturally drawn to the organic earthiness of copper and I learned it is essential to all living organisms as a trace dietary mineral. Before starting on his journey with copper art, Randall had been influenced by a friend who painted with acrylics. After some guidance, he went all-in and bought an entire set of paint and brushes and started making a mess of canvases! Fortunately, he says he had acquired some real skill from years of drawing as well as plenty of happy accidents that kept him inspired to keep at it. All of my early work was pretty abstract in nature and I really was just freely experimenting with how paint worked with a variety of techniques. Having no art schooling other than my high school art classes, I fumbled along for a while, just
seeing how different colors worked together, mixing and blending away and pretty much just having fun while listening to my favorite music, which spans a wide range of genres from classical to heavy metal! Randalls love affair with acrylic was brief. Soon after I veered-away from the abstract style, I also started painting portraits and figures. At this point, I also gave watercolor and oil paints a try. With acrylics behind him, his new love was working with oils, a medium hes worked with ever since. At this time, I also decided it would be a good idea to learn more from professional artists with far more experience than me. One of my best decisions was taking art courses with Stefan Baumann and Gabriel Mark Lipper, both of whom are majorly-talented local artists. Randall invites you to view some of his metal art and oil paintings in-person at Liquid Assets in Ashland, the Ashland Art Center, Harmonic Design and Imaging in Talent, Art Presence and the Adit Public House in Jacksonville. And, please see his website at www.randallgrealish.com.

Big Changes Planned for Victorian Christmas Planning Starts in August
The planning process for Jacksonvilles Victorian Christmas celebration was kicked-off last month with a preliminary brain-storming session. The intent is to broaden the support base for the celebration by involving more chamber members and other local organizations. Arlis Duncan, Chamber of Commerce President is taking the lead in coordinating the planning and facilitated a productive group discussion on how the celebration will be structured this year. There is an incredibly solid foundation to build-on thanks to the years of work put in by Teri Gieg in coordinating past Victorian Christmases. This celebration has become a favorite holiday tradition in the valley and the hope is to expand the celebration. Some ideas being explored include an earlier kick-off of the celebration to highlight the holiday shopping season beginning immediately after Thanksgiving, creating multiple highlight events over more days, and possibly changing the day and time of the parade to increase shopping traffic on a Saturday. Horse-drawn wagon rides, a perennial favorite, will continue to be offered as well as visits with Father Christmas. A new location for Father Christmas in the old county courthouse combined with the trolley to move people around town will allow us to feature more of our fabulous town and businesses. In addition to being the overall lead, Arlis Duncan will coordinate the wagon and trolley rides, parade and weekend performers. Tim Balfour is taking the lead on promotions and Father Christmas shop, Whit Parker will facilitate the town decorations, Jack Berger has the hot beverages and is exploring bringing back roasted chestnuts. Linda Graham is the lead for the Christmas Tree. Whit Parker will be communicating with business owners this summer about possible plans to coordinate outside decorations he is looking at hiring one firm to put up and take down all the lights and garland. Plans are to ensure more uniform coverage in the core business district and possibly adding some entry point decorations. The Jacksonville Lodging Association is using some of its Marketing Fund from the transient lodging tax to provide a promotional piece that merchants will be able to distribute during summer and fall to shoppers and diners. The piece encourages high-season visitors to come back and join us for the holidays. If you are interested in helping or have ideas to share, please dont hesitate to call Chamber of Commerce officers, Arlis Duncan at 541-8991360, Tim Balfour at 541-292-4006, or Linda Graham 541-261-9446.

8 BR 6F 2H BA 3.19 Acres 8684 SF Historic Home, Restaurant, Catering Kitchen The property is ideal for a two family set-up, bed and breakfast, commercial restaurant, catering business, event center, or destination tourism.
In September, the City-wide Yard Sale weekend will be a busy one and the City would like to make sure residents and visitors know the rules and regulations to avoid parking tickets and other citations. Please remember that this event is not sponsored by the City of Jacksonville and that there are many public safety concerns associated with this event. When town becomes full of bargain hunters, there are multiple areas where parking becomes an issue. These basic guidelines are being provided as a courtesy reminder and are supported by the Jacksonville Municipal Code and the Oregon Revised Statutes. This year, merchants on California Street will be permitted to hold sidewalk sales in front of their place of business provided a minimum 4 of pedestrian clearance is provided. Only business owners will be permitted to hold sidewalk sales and no renting of sidewalk space will be permitted. It is never allowed to park within 20 feet of an intersection whether the curb or ground is painted or not, unless a designated parking space is indicated. It is never allowed to stop your vehicle in the middle of the road to view a sale, wait for someone to view a sale or to load items. The yellow, red and green markings on the roadway and the curbs indicate that parking is either not allowed or limited. Be aware of your surroundings. Public safety vehicles must be able to travel safely down all streets in case of an emergency. Do not park with any portion of your vehicle extending into the roadway. If the road is painted with no parking and/or a yellow, red or green line pulling into the area inside of that line no matter how far off the street the vehicle is, is still considered illegally parking. Timed and handicapped parking will be enforced. North Fifth Street and California Street are both State Highways and no parking is allowed at all on North Fifth St. This area is subject to tickets and towing associated with the Oregon State Police and Jackson County Sheriff Department also. Read the signs at the beginning and ending of each block to see if parking is limited in that area.

A Few Minutes with the Mayor

by Paul Becker
hat was quite a picnic on July Fourth! Five hundred hot dogs purchased, five hundred hot dogs served. Interestingly, the line for the food was never long just steady and without a break for two hours and forty-five minutes, fitting within our three hour picnic timeframe. And yes, although the hot dogs ran out, I was made aware that only two people missed out. I only wish everything else we do at City Hall would panout as well. No mention of the picnic can be made without thanking every one who helped and its a long list. Starting with Jerry Mathern and his classic Model A car club, whose members parked their wonderful automobiles on the Courthouse grounds for close-up viewing. And, the kids games provided by our Fire Department were outstandinggoing non-stop for three hours was the very popular dunk tank plus an irresistible game with highpressure hoses forcing a ball across a high wire. And an old-fashioned Fourth of July isnt complete without oldfashioned sack races for the young-atheart. City staff arrived early to set-up tables and chairs, cook and serve the hot dogs and chips, chill the water, and watermelon. City staff and the fire department personnel devoted their own July 4th holiday to make all this happen. What a crew!
Applegate Street Fire July 2013
What a Picnic!
Additional thank-yous go to the Rotary Board and members who loaned their large cook-top unit to the City, without which there would have been no way to cook the hot dogs. Thanks also to Rays Market who donated the water and marked-down the price of the watermelon, two very necessary picnic items. A BIG thank you to both the Rotary and to Rays and to the Presbyterian Church for loan of their over-sized coolers, and to Terry Erdmann for the loan of his amplifier and public speaking system. As icing on the cake, the Jacksonville Trolley gave free tours to any and all who wanted to climb aboard, making for a special attraction and the perfect touch! The only thing missing was Judy Garland and company singing The Trolley Song. The hot dogs, the buns, and the chips were purchased with money from the Mayors Fund. This was the only expense for the entire event, further illustrating the importance of every contribution mentioned above. At this point, I would be remiss if I failed to acknowledge my sincere thanks to all those who stopped-by, or sought me out, to express their thanks to the City for sponsoring the picnic. Their appreciation is the reason I hope that our July 4th picnic becomes an annual event. I sincerely hope you enjoy the rest of the summer! Photos: Jan Garcia

The event really adds to the sense of community and brings back what an important holiday, "The Glorious Fourth," was for our early Jacksonville Pioneers. With appreciation, Dirk J. Siedlecki

My Neighbor's Garden
elen and Ray Forsyth live on Main Street in a home thats tucked only 50-feet behind their hair salon. Helens garden is a carved, hidden treasure in the middle of cement and street lights. Her goal eight years ago was to transform the bare area to an oasis in the midst of commercial surroundingsit is now a garden area that offers a cool, refreshing, and artistic experience. Helen has an amazing talent for turning any container or reclaimed treasure into a hiding place for anything green! She can repurpose anything into a garden item and will plant anything. No matter your taste, youll fall in love with the outcome! Her knack of turning cutesy into artful creation is done through a gifted eye and gift for perfect placement. She places things where you least expect them and the joy is abundant! The home's entry includes a welcoming arched fence-gate onto a secluded front deck, where a fern-laden sitting area has plantings in, on, and over everything! Not a spot is left unplanted. Into their side yard, which is predominantly white, soothing colors pop throughout. As I walked through this part of the garden, I was amazed by how every detail and every inch was meticulously used. Pathways flow as an adventure, drawing you through the garden. Porcelain and trumpet vines, and iceberg roses are allowed to find their place in the garden, according to Helen. They drape fences, creating a purposed jungle of protection and cool calm. In the garden with added water features, you are unaware of any outside noise or surrounding buildings. In this 20 x 50 side space of garden, a world of total escape is created with walking paths that allow and encourage exploration. Old drum bases provide homes for herbs while repurposed treasures tuck

in among perennials, each one holding a living treasure. Tiny succulents placed in drilled holes of a birch log lay next to the pathway rock edging. Through a back gate near the working area, I was immediately pulled away to the narrow walk along the back of the home, where potted arborvitae offered a calm break and a sitting area. There, a row of soft pieris line the walkway, while grape vines shield the back fencing where you can stop and rest and feel the calm before the next surprise. To me, the most fun in this garden is difficult to explain without conjuring up a junkyard image... which is the FURTHEST from Helens creation!

Love Your Landscape by Adam Haynes

ow that summer is here, we can truly enjoy our lawns and the outdoor areas where weve invested our resources, creativity and personal style. And no one is happier about that than me. If you already have a patio, deck or outdoor area, I encourage you to get out there and enjoy it! For those whose outdoor living dreams have yet to be realized, there are still a few simple ways to improve the time spent outdoors. And here, Im going to introduce a word not ordinarily associated with landscaping boundaries. In other words, to feel comfortable in any outdoor area, it helps to know where the boundary lines begin and end! As much as I believe in the value and use of fencing in the construction of an outdoor living area, I also know that using plants as a privacy fence is a great way to keep your privacy without taking on the commitment and cost of installing a wood or metal fence. Creating a sense of space is essential to utilizing the exterior of your property. If you dont have a fence, there are plenty of landscape edging ideas that incorporate plants to establish a boundary line around your home or certain section of the yard. One of my favorite (and green) uses for seclusion is to create a boundary line of fast-growing trees that reach their maximum height within a few years. Having fastgrowing trees and shrubs as lawn edging throughout your yard will create a natural fence that keeps noise out
Where the Best Yards Begin and End

and blocks others from peering-in. Some privacy fence ideas for backyard gardening include using Green Giant trees or holly bushes to create a wall. Both grow quickly and keep their dark green colors year-round. Within these beautifully-constructed boundaries, lets not forget about the lawn itself. Here are a few tips to keep your lawn and yard healthy during August and September. Take a Day Off From WateringOne way to keep your lawn beautiful while keeping your water bill down is to cut one watering day per week from your sprinkler schedule. Doing so can reduce your water use by as much as 10% to 15%. Time of DayWater in early-morning hours before sunrise to lessen water lost to evaporation and daytime winds. Monitor Your LandscapeMake adjustments to watering times as needed. Shaded or protected areas may need less water than other zones. You may even be able to water less frequently than you think. Check Your Irrigation SystemCheck your irrigation system weekly for broken or misaligned sprinkler heads and drip emitters, which can be prime water-waste culprits. Mow for Best ResultsEach time you mow the lawn, change directions. Set your mower to the proper height to promote a healthy lawn and to reduce water use. Recommended mowing heights are 2 1/2" to 3" for Tall Fescue and 3/4" to 1 1/2" for Bermuda. To create your own personal summer oasis, take time to think about these tips and incorporate them into your outdoor lifestyle and love your landscape!

The Weed Wrangler by Bob Budesa

s I write this, my wife and I anticipate our upcoming trip to the United Kingdom in August. As a long-time weed aficionado, I know where my eyes will be focused at least part of the timeon road shoulders! Its a well-known affliction that comes with the territory, Im afraid. Although most of our time will be focused on scenery, history, cuisine, and the many glorious beverages to be had, part of my time will be spent making a mental note of plants considered invasive to the islands. Im sure there are plants native to our continent that are considered invasive or alien to the UK, although being from the U.S., its not a topic to which Ive given much thought. It reminds me, however, of tactics that we should be employing here on terra cognita. The invasive species with which we spend most of our money and effort on HERE in the US originated elsewhere. They arrived by various means, whether intentional or not. Some arrived accidently in the fur and fleece of animals brought over decades, if not centuries ago, and some were brought intentionally because of perceived medicinal values, and aesthetic qualities. However it occurred, theyre here. If only those early immigrants had thought to shear their sheep, wipe their clothing off, and ensure they were packing no unintentional hitch-hikers, wed not have the problem weve got! The tactic of wiping ones
My Upcoming UK Weed Adventure!

pants off, cleaning ones shoes and shoelaces, and inspecting pets before leaving the woods is one that should be employed more often. When we hike in the woodlands or other trail systems and occasionally stray from the path, we pick up seeds and/or plant parts along the way. Before climbing back into our cars to journey homeward, we should take a few minutes to inspect our clothing. Wipe off pant legs, inspect shoe and boot laces for plant seeds, run your hands across your dog to ensure he/she is not harboring unwanted seedsor ticks! Notice above, I did not use the term weed seeds, but plant seeds. You see, any plant you dont want on your property is, for all intents and purposes, a weed. A rose growing in your yard is intended to be there, and provide years of beauty, but a rose in the middle of a wheat field is a weed to the farmer, yes? Take a minute or two to ensure that the plants growing in the woods REMAIN in the woods. To quote Sandra Bullock in The Blind Side, You can thank me later. Bob Budesa moved to Jacksonville from Alturas California in 1989, retired from BLM after 38 years where he oversaw the noxious weed program with Medford District BLM (850,000 acres), worked in the Wild Horse Program in1970s, and has been a member of the Jacksonville Woodlands Association since 2009. Bob is still involved with noxious weed education and awareness, primarily through the Jackson Coordinated Weed Management Area he helped start several years ago.

Olive Oil 101: Olive Summer

by Lara Knackstedt, Rogue Olive Oil
aybe more than any other season, summer is the perfect time to enjoy olive oil. Warm weather and an abundance of fresh, simple food is the perfect canvas for extra virgin olive oil. A little high-quality oil is an easy and healthy way to add a gourmet touch to everything from heirloom tomatoes to ice cream. When I do tastings before noon, there are a few people who think it is perhaps too early in the day for olive oil. Breakfast is actually one of my favorite times to include olive oil. Olive oil helps maintain healthy blood sugar levels plus it keeps eggs from sticking to my pans. A tablespoon or two is a creamy addition to smoothies and luscious on yogurt and granola. You can also replace butter on toast and in baked goods. For baking, less robust oil is usually preferred. I recommend having a few varieties on-hand and tasting the oils first to see which pairs the best for you. I dont pretend that olive oil can always replace butter, but there are many cases where it works as a delicious alternative. Not only are you making a healthier fat choiceyou reduce the amount: 1 tsp Butter = tsp Olive Oil 1 tbsp Butter = 2 tsp Olive Oil 1 cup Butter = cup Olive Oil In many cases, its the simple dishes that blossom with a dash of olive oil. You cant go wrong with classic Italian dishes, but youll find that many American, Mexican and Asian foods will also be tastier and healthier. A drizzle of olive oil on popcorn is delicious with sea salthamburgers and steaks become moist and buttery. Bnh mi (Vietnamese sandwich made with French bread, meats and vegetables) made with Koroneiki in the marinade and on the toasted baguettes is a family favorite. My son makes his own fresh guacamole using just four ingredients I love the velvety addition of Arbequina. Christophers Guacamole with Arbequina 3 avocados 1 Jalapeo (seeded and chopped) 1 lime 1 pinch of salt Mash all ingredients in a bowl and drizzle with fresh high-quality Arbequina extra virgin olive oil.

Financial Consultants:
Although many of us think of olive oil as a savory addition to foods, it is delicious in cakes, ice cream and confections. A small drizzle of olive oil over ice cream with a pinch of sea salt is an elegant and refreshing desert, and olive oil ice cream with balsamic drenched fruit is well worth the effort. You can macerate your own fruit or try a delicious fruit balsamic like the new Apricot Balsamic from Pasture 42, formerly Rogue Valley Brambles. Koroneiki Olive Oil Ice Cream 3 egg yolks 1 cup heavy cream 1 cups half and half 1 cup fruity extra virgin olive oil (Koronieki) cup sugar cup honey 1 teaspoon vanilla 1 pinch sea salt 1. Whisk the egg yolks in a small bowl. Place the cream, half and half, extra virgin olive oil, sugar, honey, vanilla and salt in a saucepan and gently simmer, stirring to dissolve the sugar and honey. Add 2/3 cup of the warm cream mixture into the egg yolks in a thin stream, stirring to combine, add the egg yolk mixture back into the saucepan. Cook over low heat, stir constantly until it coats the back of a spoon (do not boil). Refrigerate at least 4 hours. 2. Stir the chilled custard until well combined, then pour into your ice cream machine and churn. Visit me at the Jacksonville Farmers Market on Sundays from 10:00am-2:00pm to taste olive oil and exchange recipes.

Meet Your FarmerBy George Farm

y George Farm is located at the intersection of the Little Applegate River and Yale Creek. The total ranch acreage is 87 acres. Currently, 10 acres are being used for vegetable and fruit farming, as well as milk cows, and laying hens. Next year, the remainder of the acreage will be used for additional milk cows. From waiters to farmers! What an incredible journey. Tyson Fehrman and Jonny Steiger met in Madison, Wisconsin when Tyson was in college; he graduated with a degree in Wildlife Ecology. Jonny grew up on a big dairy farm in Wisconsin. Both young men became waiters at a fine dining restaurant. After a few years, they saw that Wisconsin chefs struggled to get local, healthy food. Tyson and Jonny began reading about our food supply, and how to produce and distribute good local food. In 2008, they left Wisconsin and moved to Talent with an aspiration to learn organic farming and cheese making. While in Talent, they worked on various organic vegetable farms. Then, the following spring, they went to the Siskiyou Goat Dairy and spent 8 months as interns through Rogue Farm Corps, learning cheese making, vegetable production, seed saving, soil building and animal husbandry. At the end of 2009, Tyson and Jonny received an offer from a Wisconsin chef to grow vegetables on 1.5 acres of an organic farm. They started a CSA to raise start-up capital and the chef bought all of the vegetables they could raise. The farm was also a heritage beef farm so Tyson and Jonny learned about cattle grazing and pasture management. Jonny also was a student at the University of Wisconsins Master Cheese-maker Program. In 2011, the caretaker of Yale Creek Ranch, Tim Franklin, passed away. In 2012, the ranch owners talked to Tyson and Jonny about becoming the new farm caretakers. In March, 2012, the farm By George moved from Wisconsin, where the namesake from Tysons grandfathers estate provided some start-up capital, to Oregon. The duo literally moved from Wisconsin to Jacksonville in 2 days and planted 10,000 onions within 24 hours of arriving in Jacksonville (By George, weve got a farm!) Tyson and Jonny carry on the traditions started by Tim Franklin: provide education about sustainable farming, use organic practices on the land, maintain the riparian vegetation and keep the streams clear to protect the watershed. The river and creek are used for the farms irrigation. The farm also uses solar power for its electricity. Tim was one of Tyson and Jonnys mentors as part of the Rogue Farm Corp program and they strive to fill a portion of his boots. Today, By George Farm produces vegetables, fruit, pastured hens, milk-fed pork, and a raw milk herd-share. They specialize in gourmet exotic vegetables such as rainbow carrots and cauliflower, Shisigatan squash, popcorn, oca (tuber), saffron and yuzu (Japanese citrus) to name a few. Tyson is a self proclaimed plant nerd and is always looking for new and unusual plants to grow.

Garden Club Getting Their Hands Dirty AgainFor a Good Cause!
Family Views
by Michelle Hensman
his August is the start of the third year for the Family Views columnIm amazed, overwhelmed and honored that the Jacksonville community has endured and followed my crazy anecdotes on family life for this long. As I perused pieces from the past, Im reminded of why I wanted to write this column to begin with Back then I felt the need to write a parenting column for a few reasons: FirstThere was a market; Jacksonville was/is an amazing place to raise children and clearly we were not the only parents thinking along these lines based on the red wagons, bicycles, strollers and skateboards zooming around town. SecondI love to laugh and since theres nothing more humorous than dysfunctional family life, why not purge myself of the pain and angst publicly for everyone else to laugh at, learn from, judge and ultimately relate to? ThirdParenting can be brutal and misery loves company! Seriously, there was a time when I felt like I was the only one struggling with being a parent. Sacrificing my career and many of the things in life that were once meaningful and fulfilling to me to sit for 2 hours cheering-on five-year-olds at baseball practice didnt always sit well with me; especially after running late because there was a melt-down over which socks to wear. I thought I was the only one who didnt make a vegetable for every meal, couldnt keep a schedule and stressed over the team snack, birthday parties and sleep-overs. I never felt like a very good role model and more often than not I struggled with patience. Ive been known to get angry with my kids or husband and curse out loud, (even sometimes at them, shocker I know!). I sometimes would daydream about leaving without telling anyone
No Parent Left Behind

where I was going or when I would return or imagine running far, far away and taking on a new identityonce back in reality I felt like a wretched witch of a mother, destined for hell fire to think such things! Certainly none of the parents I knew felt like this or used such disrespectful language around or at their loved ones, right? WRONG! It turns out that friends whom I thought to be the most positive, influential, educated, well-adjusted and disciplined parents are just as confused, frustrated, inconsistent and inappropriate as I am, (friends who will remain anonymous, but you know who you arewink!). Therefore, it became my mission as a soldier in the parenting war that no parent will be left behind, not on my watch! Parents, we need each other and should not have to endure the plethora of emotional complexity from our offspring alone. Youve heard the old adage, It takes a village to raise a child (by the way Im fairly certain that phrase was coined long before the Hillary speech); Im here to tell you it also takes the village to support the parents! Hence the Family Views column was born. Every parent has shining moments of glory and dark defeats and we all have vast knowledge and experiences worth sharing. Reach out to one another. I can assure you that whatever your neighbor is dealing with today you may have already been through, so help shed some light and laughter on their situation or you might be faced with a similar skirmish in a year and can ascertain inside information in an effort to preempt the strike; either way its win-win! Try to remember: Sharing is caring, unless its unsolicitedand thats a whole other column! Family Views Readers: Thank you for your support over the last few years; please, keep the ideas coming and if you keep reading, Ill keep writing!
Garden Club member from l-r: Grace Emori, Faye Haynes, Peggy Peffley, Petra Irwin and Sue Casaleggio Garden soil isnt the only place members of the Jacksonville Garden Club enjoy sticking their hands into! Since March 2013, Jacksonville Garden Club members including residents Faye Haynes, Sue Casaleggio, Grace Emori, Petra Irwin and Peggy Peffley have been making their own paper, cards and envelopes. After being taught the art of papermaking by new Jacksonville resident Natalie Chomyk-Daniels, the garden clubbers have been meeting twice a week to hone their newfound art. All finished paper products contain bits and pieces of flowers and leaves, all collected right here in town. Working out of the Peffley garage on Singler Lane, the garden club crew generally works together for about two hours, producing upwards of 20 sheets of paper or envelopes per session. During each work session, they gain more confidence and skills as they learn more and more about the art. Coincidentally, making paper is a multi-stage process that requires lots of patience the same patience needed to tend their gardens. Fortunately, the group was taught to make paper by Natalie ChomykDaniels, a recent transplant to Jacksonville from Alaska, where she was a professor of fine arts at the University of Alaska, Anchorage. Specializing in paper crafts, Daniels is one of the most respected and admired paper-makers on the globe and has taught classes world-wide, sometimes fetching $1000 a seat. Once in Jacksonville, Daniels was not motivated to teach for money. Instead, she chose to share her passion with the Garden Club by joining the club and teaching them to create cards that could be sold to support charitable Garden Club efforts. The cards being produced are works of art and are available for $8 each at Carefree Buffalo, Picos and Willowcreek Gifts here in town. All proceeds are being used to support the clubs college scholarship program for college students attending Rogue Community College and for local students in the Oregon Stewardship program. Paper making starts with making a mix of plant-based pulp that resembles very thin but lumpy pancake batter. Once the mix is transferred to a vat, dried flowers are added to give the mixture more color, texture and thickness. Vats of pulp are created according to color categories with purples, reds and yellows for example being created from specific plant types. Once this paper base is mixed, a bonding agent similar to glue called, neri, is added. Neri is extracted from the roots of the plant tororo-aoi and is a very important part of Japanese papermaking as it makes the fibers float evenly and prevents them from sinking down. Also, it makes the pulp run more slowly through the mold during the papermaking process and so allows more control over the process.

Speaking of Antiquing
with Margaret Barnes, Pickety Place Antiques
hen it comes to heirlooms items of value passed from one generation to the next most people would not expect a clunky old iron pan to be one. If you know what to look for in an iron pan, you could have something of more value than your great-grandfathers pocket watch. Cast iron is so durable that you can take an old rusty pan out of the trash, clean it up, season it, and use it for many more years. The cookware from the Griswold and Wagner Co.s from the 1800s-1900s are still being used in many kitchens in America, including mine. Wagner cookware was started in Sidney, Ohio in 1891. They marked their pans in different ways over the years. Some have a plain WAGNER, and a number indicating the skillet size; then later simple SIDNEY. Later still, they incorporated both words. The font change came in early 1914 where the W was large for both Wagner and Ware, with Sidney underneath. Griswold Manufacturing began making the Erie pans in 1880. The ERIE skillet featuring Griswolds spider trademark is one of the most desirable and rare pieces of cast iron cookware to date. Griswold logos have a circled cross with GRISWOLD in the center. The size of this logo changed many times. Griswold is from Erie, Pennsylvania. So if you just see the logos Erie or Sidney, you will be able to recognize from which company they come. The numbers on the handle or back of the pan indicate the size, or inches of the pan. Cast iron cookware, although heavy and durable, is also fragile. Never put Volunteer - Cont'd. from Pg. 3 Cemetery Sexton Richard Shields and City Staff do an outstanding job caring for the grounds given their limited time and manpower. However, they need the help of volunteers to keep up with the work load. The Friends of Jacksonvilles Historic Cemetery organizes three clean-up days a year, in March, May, and October. Volunteers pick-up downed tree branches and limbs, rake and bag leaves, weed, prune, cut grass and weed-eat, clean the Interpretive Panels and Interpretive Center, restock brochures and maintain the Bulletin Boards in the Interpretive Center and at the rest rooms. Trained volunteers clean grave markers and restore leaning or damaged grave markers, curbing, urns and other decorative cemetery fixtures. We also maintain and update a database of all the gravesites that are marked within the cemetery grounds.
your hot lids or pans in cold water as they can crack like glass shattering. If dropped, they can also break or crack. I once set a hot lid on the counter too roughly and it cracked. I still use it many years later and that crack reminds me of its fragility. These companies made several items for kitchen use, including coffee grinders, waffle irons, griddle pans, meat and grain grinders, corn bread pans, muffin pans, utensils, coffee pots, racks to hold the pots and pans, stoves and heaters, toys and much more. Dutch Ovens with feet or legs were made to sit above the coals on an open fire. The wire handles were used to suspend the pot over the fire, as well as carrying. To successfully care for your cast iron requires you to season your pan. Many pans get thrown out because the owners think they are beyond using. Taking the time to fully season in the oven will give your pan a non-stick cooking surface and restore its beauty. To season, completely clean and dry the cast iron pan. Put it in the oven and heat to 450 F. Remove and let it cool until you can touch it. Then, using Crisco or Lard on a rag, wipe the entire surface lightly and uniformly. Put it back in the oven for 30 minutes at 400 F. Turn off the oven and leave pan in to cool. This should give your pan a shiny patina. Repeat this every 6 months or so depending on need. Lastly, NEVER put your pans in a dishwasher or use an abrasive scrubber. When needed, soak them for a short time in water to soften cooked-on foods. You might want to avoid using soap when possible and simply wipe cast iron clean while still warm after cooking. See ad this page. In addition, we provide Docents for individual group tours and for our History Saturday Programs, place flags on all 360 veterans gravesites and provide assistance to those visiting the cemetery to located gravesites of loved ones. In October, we present Meet the Pioneers, where visitors are guided around and meet Pioneer Spirits who share their stories. MTP requires 70- 80 volunteers to put on each year and is not only a major fundraiser for cemetery restoration efforts, it has become one of Jacksonvilles more popular attractions. If you would like to get involved and help us to care for this beautiful Pioneer Cemetery, visit our website at www. friendsjvillecemetery.org and look under Volunteer for additional details. Thank you for your consideration and I hope to see you in the cemetery or perhaps working on another volunteer project around town.

SightSeeing by Julie D. Danielson, O.D.

hances are you may have heard of an eye condition widely known as a stigmatism. This imperfection in the surface of the eye is actually astigmatism, a condition that is both common and treatable. Like nearsightedness and farsightedness, astigmatism affects the way you seeexcept astigmatism affects your vision at all distances, not just close up or far away. Astigmatism occurs when the cornea, or surface of your eye, is Normal eye irregularly shaped. A perfectlyshaped cornea is spherical, like a baseball, allowing all light rays to enter your eye to focus on the retina. As a result, the image you see is sharp and crisp. With astigmatism, the shape of the cornea is irregularmore like a football than a baseballcausing the light rays to focus on two points rather than one. The result is distorted or blurred vision.
Understanding Astigmatism
Most people have some astigmatism. If it is slight, you may not realize you have it. Larger amounts of astigmatism can cause blurred vision, eye fatigue and headaches. Astigmatism can be corrected with either eyeglasses or toric contact lenses. And while over-the-counter reading glasses may enlarge the image you are looking at, they will not correct astigmatism. Only prescription glasses will correct astigmatism and give you the clearest vision possible. In some cases, vision correction surgery is a good option for reducing astigmatism. Your doctor can tell you if you are a good Astigmatic eye candidate for this procedure. The good news: astigmatism usually does not get worse with age. Because it is due to the shape of the eye, astigmatism remains relatively stable throughout your lifetime. Julie Danielson, an optometric physician, is available by appointment at 541-899-2020.

Move your feet! How to Start a Running or Walking Program

by Beth Coker, Cardiac Rehabilitation, Asante Rogue Regional Medical Center
Im out of shape. I cant even run to the mailbox how can I start jogging? Its been a long day and I deserve to sit on the couch watching TV again. You know exercise is good for you and your heart. Dont let the excuses win! The first step is to believe in yourself. Too many people defeat themselves before they even start because the first week they expect themselves to do way more than they can, and then they quit. To start and stick with a running or walking routine, here are some effective strategies: Start graduallyYou should be able to walk or run comfortably. The first week, begin with a baseline goal for example, two laps around the block, every other day then increase gradually either by time or distance until you can achieve 30-minutes a day, five to six days a week. Watch your heart rateTo determine if youre on track, watch your heart rate. Keep it in your target zone, which is 55 to 85 percent of your maximum heart rate. (To calculate: 220 minus your age, multiplied by .55 to .85.) Below your target rate, youre not gaining the full benefits of exercise. If you shoot too high, however, fatigue can set in. After your heart gets stronger, you need to boost your program a little bit. Interval training can help. Pick up the pace for five minutes, and then slow down for five minutes. Take a breakOvertraining is the most common cause of injuries. Prevent them by taking a day off for a little R and R. Dont hit the pavement seven days a week. You need to give your muscles and your feet a break. Wear good shoesIts important to wear good shoes. Investing in proper, supportive footwear can prevent expensive aches and pains down the road. StretchTalk to anybody whos lived the lifestyle of a walker or runner, and theyll tell you stretching matters. Do active stretching before a workout (moving slightly with your stretches) and passive stretching afterwards (stretch and hold for at least 30 seconds). Active stretching helps get your body warmed-up; passive stretching is best after a workout because your muscles are more pliable. Tell your friendsWhats the real secret to exercise success?

Joyfull Living

es its hot out there, but not too hot for yoga. The heat can help us slow down and relax our muscles during stretches, but ultimately, when we feel too hot to move, we need to cool down. Of course, air conditioning and fans help, but to cool the body from within, there is a yogic breathing technique that has a cooling effect. Its called Sitali Pranayam. Sitali means to cool pranayama is an aspect of yoga that offers a scientific method for controlling the breath. Slowing down your breathing is helpful in stilling the mind, lowering blood pressure and producing deep relaxation. In this state, the immune system works at its best. Prana (CHI) means vital life force energy and yma means to lengthen or extend. This exercise may look funny, but it will soothe and cool you on hot daysits also a great help for hot flashes or rather when your inner child is playing with matches. It has been put to the test with ancient yogis in the desert. It really works. How to do it: Sit comfortably. Relax your shoulders. Curl the tongue to make a U shape and protrude it slightly past the lips if you can't make a U (dont worry its genetic) just imagine it and draw the air through the center of tongue. Inhale deeply and smoothly through the tongue as if through a straw. Think of cool water coming in to refresh your body. Exhale through the nose. (You can relax your tongue for the exhale) Continue for at least 1 to 3 minutes Papermaking - Cont'd. from Pg. 28
Yoga Breath to Stay Cool

To end, inhale and smile. Enjoy a glass of water You may notice a bitter taste on your tongue at first. This is a sign of detoxification. As you continue the practice of Sitali Pranayam, the taste of the tongue will ultimately become sweet. This technique activates the liver, the spleen and improves digestion. Students who practice this regularly have also noticed benefits of rejuvenation & detoxification. How does it work? You can think of it as part of nature's own air conditioning system. As the air comes in through the tongue, it reduces the fire energy principle referred to as pitta in Ayurvedic medicine, which is associated with the catabolic processes in the body. Not unlike your dogs panting. I will be teaching this technique this month in all my classes. I can also teach you a version that is more subtle to practice wherever and whenever you need it. Of course it only works if you do it. The more you practice, the easier it becomes and the greater the benefits. Remember to take time to Breathe. Breathe in GratitudeLive in In Joy.

See ad this page. of the paper sheets being created are literally dipped into the mix until the chamber-like cavities fill with the goo. Once filled, screens are transferred on to stiffening fabric called pelons to prevent the gooey, wet plant matter from sticking and tearing apart. From there, more processes to remove excess water are employed. Before the screen material is too dry, pressed flowers and leaves may be added to become a permanent part of the paper or envelope. In a day or so after resting on drying racks, the plant-paper material is then peeled away from the pelon, almost as-if being pulled like a band-aid from skin. From there, the almost finished paper pieces may be further adorned with plant bits which are pressed-in with the use of a common household steaming iron. As mentioned, making paper is a multistage process with each piece emerging as a unique, one-of-a-kind piece of art. Thanks in-part to the paper making project, the Garden Club has been reenergized and has gained several new members. And since they are always looking for new ones, those interested should contact JoAnn Miller at 541-8588090. Meetings and programs are held once a month from September through June for approximately 2 hours. Since the paper making project is a long-term one with no end in sight, the club is now seeking donations of pressed flowers, clean flower petals, flower heads and cuttings from local gardeners doing their cleanup chores!

Soul Matters by Kate Ingram, M.A.

esterday I grabbed Deepak's bookI call him Deepak nowThe Seven Spiritual Laws of Success off my shelf, deciding that it was time for a refresher. I also thought that, energetically, it would behoove me to read his book, since Ive asked him to endorse mine; it may generate some sort of karmic reciprocity. Anyway, it's a good book and it's little, so I cracked it open and began with Rule 1, which says that everything is energy. Everything is One. We are all connected. There is no difference, really, between my desk and me, energetically speaking. I read on to the practical steps to put this law into action. With this first law, the steps are 1) Meditate, 2) Embrace silence, 3) Take time in Nature and 4) Commit each day to practice non-judgment. This is so easy. I have this down. So I woke up this morning and I said to myself, "Today, I will not judge anything." I went downstairs, made my tea, and reminded my son that he needed to finish his chores before play time. And all hell broke loose. My son, it should be noted, is a very loving, sweet, even-tempered little guy. He's sensitive and kind and very spiritual. When he was tiny we called him a buddha baby, when we weren't affectionately referring to him as a little blob (this because he never cried, never fussed, just sat arranging bottles of shampoo in a line on the floor). So it always comes as a shock when he flips into Alien Aidan: sullen, whiny, resistant, defensive; in other words, when he acts like a regular kid. It throws me. It especially throws me at 8:00am on a lovely Saturday morning before I've had my tea or my front porch birdlistening time and when I'm experiencing a tsunami of hot flashes. After some minutes of turmoil, explanation, assistance offering and general law-laying-downing, I lost it. I raised my volume and I said something that included the word "freakin." (Now, "freakin' is not a word I even like, or allow my children to use. It's a dumb word,
Watch that First Step; Its a Doozy

but I figured it was better than it's logical, more desired alternative.) Thirty minutes after I so smugly vowed to practice non-judgment, I was judging away left and right: My son is obstinate. I hate his attitude. I don't like the way my morning is going. Judge, judge, judge. I could blame my hormones, and I do, but that's really no excuse and I know it. I know how to parent my child in a way that smoothes out these little (and they are so very little) bumps. I know better. It is entirely possible that the whole scenario unfolded precisely because I vowed not to judge; the Universe gave me a wonderful opportunity to practice what I said I wanted to practice. Be careful what you wish for. (Side note: never ever ask to practice patience unless you are solidly prepared for an onslaught of "opportunities" designed to try your one, last, functional nerve.) The whole idea behind the meditation/silence/nature/nonjudgment thing is getting in touch with the larger force of which we are all a part. The purpose is to open and expand consciousness; to that end, perhaps I did okay, even with my slip. I am aware of what happened and aware of my words and that I chose an attitude which closed things down, rather than opening them up. I'm not judging myself for it. (Yes I am. Inside I am. I feel bad. I will apologize. It will be a learning opportunity for my son and for me. Okay, now I'm not judging.) I will simply say, as my sweet airy-fairy friends do, that "it's all good." But that's a judgment too, n'est pas? So how about my husband's favorite phrase, the one that annoys the hell out of me but which I've come, grudgingly, to see is absolutely perfect: "It is what it is."

rovidence Medford Medical Centers Heart and Vascular Institute has expanded to include its newly-opened Cardiac Rehabilitation Center, bringing a new level of care to those suffering from heart-related illnesses. By providing comprehensive cardiac rehabilitation following coronary surgeries, the staff in the unit are striving to help patients recover faster and build long term habits that could make life post-surgery fruitful and fulfilling. Just as diet and exercise can help curb the risk of heart disease, heart attacks and stroke before a catastrophic coronary episode occurs, the proper diet and rehabilitation exercises after heart surgery or coronary intervention have proven to be no less vital for having a long and fruitful life, said James Cook, M.D., cardiologist and medical director for the Cardiac Rehabilitation program at Providence Medford Medical Center. Heart-related illnesses remain the number one cause of death for most Americans, according to the Centers for Disease Control. In 2011, more than 26.5 million Americans were diagnosed with some form of heart disease or heart-related ailments. Of that number, more than 596,000 died as a direct result of their illness and many of those died from a recurrence of a previously diagnosed heart-related issue. At Providence, a skilled team of physicians, nurses and exercise specialists are working to cut that number through education and implementation of a comprehensive cardiac rehabilitation program that will help patients to exercise safely while building strength and cardiovascular fitness. Patients who attend all 36 sessions of cardiac rehab reduce their death risk by as much as 58 percent. Staff closely monitors patients during prescribed exercise. They dont feel left on their own and this helps allay any fears of exercise, said Philip Olson, RN. We get them started slowly. Cardiac rehab involves supervised exercise as well as lifestyle counseling. Another benefit for patients is that they build confidence while improving physical, mental and social well-being, said Jennifer Scott, exercise physiologist. Patients will also learn about heart health and how to reduce their risk of further cardiac problems.
by Kelly Carper Polden, Public Affairs Information Officer, Providence Medford Medical Center
According to the American Heart Association, supervised comprehensive cardiac rehabilitation helps the patients heart get stronger and work more efficiently following surgery. Counseling, which often accompanies the physical rehabilitation component, can curb habits that may be at the root of the patient's heart problem. Such habits include smoking, a high-fat diet or a sedentary life style. Counseling can also help patients learn how to properly manage stress and can help improve overall health. Jane Broten, director of heart and vascular services at Providence Medford, says the benefits gained through the rehabilitation process help patients get back to living a normal life quicker. "Rehabilitation helps in a variety of ways," Broten said. "For example, it increases exercise endurance which helps with daily living activities such as showering, preparing meals and extracurricular activities." Cardiac rehabilitation is available for patients who have had any of the following: a heart attack, coronary bypass surgery, angioplasty, valve surgery, stable angina, a heart transplant or a heart-lung transplant. Participants do need a physician referral with a cardiac diagnosis to take advantage of the center's services. Providence Medford's Cardiac Rehabilitation Center is open weekdays 7:30am-4:00pm.

Juxtaposition in DesignA contemporary home takes on a multi-layered and collected look when the furnishings and decorative elements cross global boundaries and design periods. As we select pieces for our rooms, a "take it to the next level" principle comes into play by adding antique or vintage pieces to a contemporary home. Charm, elegance, whimsy, nostalgia these elements create a uniquely-individual design. And, it speaks of a sophisticated and daring decorator. Simple Backdrop The "less is more look" takes on balance and visual appeal with that just right piece of furniture or decorative accessory. The simple lines of contemporary furniture remain visually quiet and allow the eye to move toward a focal piece. Carved frame mirror, carved and/or painted cabinet or trunk, fanciful vintage lamp just a few ideas to brainstorm for your space.Contemporary is less stark than modern design. It generally finds softer lines and textiles incorporated. If your design scheme is more toward modern with square edges and sleek surfaces, some of these same ideas will create that punch to keep a room from feeling overly clinical or cold and uninviting. And, the Opposite WorksIf your decor lends toward traditional and vintage la Shabby Chic, then the contrast of a few carefully-selected and placed contemporary elements brings the look forward. The key element to making an eclectic scheme work is to keep the palette tight. Don't venture too far from your primary color scheme as you add more contemporary or whimsical elements. Glossy ceramic or metal table tamps with quiet lines and your palette are great. Simple mirror and photo frames "unfussy" an overly visual room. Create a lovely fusion by incorporating metal, wood, glass and stone pieces into your slipcovered world of chintz, linen, hemp and twill.

Soft Water...But Its Hard by David Funderburk of Quality Water Systems

In Southern Oregon, there are many areas with hard water. Youll know you have hard water due to clues such as soap scum and scale buildup around your sinks and toilets, and water heater maintenance problems. Softening water has many benefitsit saves energy, reduces waste to septic systems and extends the life of appliances and plumbing fixtures. If your water contains over 7 grains/ per gallon, softening is an excellent investment and will save thousands of dollars in the long run. However, before you run out and buy a water softener, be sure to consider the drawbacks. Softeners increase sodium levels in the process. Although your water may not taste salty, the increase in sodium can lead to a level that is not healthy. The EPA recommends sodium levels in drinking water be 20mg/l or less since sodium is so abundant in foods and beverages already. For every 1 grain per gallon of water hardness removed by a softener, 12 mg/l of sodium is added. So, if you want soft water, be sure to consider what you will do for drinking water. A cost- effective solution is installing an under-the-counter drinking water system for household drinking and cooking needs. A properly-designed water-softening and drinking-water system will provide years of service while reducing waste, saving water, and keeping your home cleaner. In Southern Oregon, we should all think ahead and be water conscience. In the event you already own a water softener, call us and we can make sure its operating at its highest efficiency. A word to the wise: even though water softeners are sold at every big box store, its really a product that should be designed and installed by professionals. For assurance that the system is installed, set-up and properly maintained, call us here at Quality Water Systems. Contact us at 541-245-7470 or visit us online at www.541water.com. See ad this page.

The Backyard Pharmacy Lemon Balm

here's a plant, quite possibly growing in your yard right now, that you may not fully appreciate. Lemon balm is a medium-sized, leafy green plant with the four-sided stem of a mint, and small light yellow flowers. Originally from Europe, Melissa officinalis is now naturalized in the States and is often considered a nuisance due to its propensity to spread easily through one's garden if allowed to. Pinch-off a leaf, crush it in your fingers, and you will get an unmistakable smell of lemon. Although rather ordinary looking, lemon balm has an amazingly wide variety of medicinal uses for animals and humans alike. It's not considered a particularly strong herb, so it's very safe to use. A tea made from the dried leaves has a mild but pleasant taste, and is quite effective for nervousness, mild depression and upset digestive systems. Let's say you plan on leaving Heidi, your sweet but anxious German Shepherd, with a sitter while you go out of town for a week. Make a pot of lemon balm tea and have the pet sitter pour it into Heidi's food at every meal. It will not only help keep her calm and relaxed while you are gone, but will also
by Dr. Jeff Judkins, Animalkind Veterinary Clinic

sooth her GI tract and help to prevent the stress-induced diarrhea that German shepherds are famous for. Or maybe you have a young colt that is not dealing with the stress of training well. A handful of the dried leaves twice a day in the feed can do wonders to help him stay more calm and focused. It's also a great help for horses recovering from colic. Lemon balm has a mild thyroidsuppressing effect, so I've used it in helping to treating hyperthyroidism, which is a very common condition in older cats. It also has antiviral properties, so it can be useful in upper respiratory infections. I've also used it effectively in treating herpes eye infections, another common feline ailment. And lastly, an oil made from the fresh plant makes a great remedy used topically for burns, blisters, stings and herpes eruptions in any species. This amazing plant with so many uses is easy to grow and can be found at your local nursery. And remember, it's not just for critters!

the best care for your best friend
Thought Id write a rhyme to keep you entertained, If its not that fun, I refuse to be blamed! Summers passing way too fast, Not sure I really had a blast. Everyones so busy with this and that, I spend too much time alone, and thats a fact. Mom works at her store all day, and Marty the CAT refuses to play, He swishes his tail, turns his head, And saunters off to lay on the bed. Sometimes I manage to go outdoors, But its so darn hot, it hurts my paws. I lay in the grass the best I can, but darn, itd be nice to have a fan! Dad bought a cool, shiny new car, But in this heat, we dont get to go far. We drive to the beach once in a while, I chase the seagulls, which makes me smile! The beach is truly the best place for me, Cool sand and surfand I can run free! I hope that you are happy this year, and enjoying our Small Town with Big Atmosphere.
Paws for Thought by Dr. Tami Rogers

have to admit todays world of social media stumps me. I am convinced that no one cares what I ate for breakfast, what I bought at Target on my lunch break, or how I stubbed my toe when vacuuming my floor. And to be honest, Im not sure why you should care. I spend little time in the social media world with most of my visits to share information on our clinic page (you should totally follow us on Facebook by the way!) While toe stubbing is not at all interesting, I hope info on a recent rabies case in the valley may be of use to some people... so, this is what I share! While I tend to stay away from social sites, I have often wondered what our animals would say if they had access to the internet. I have a 10-year-old pug named Isabelle, a 13-year-old cat named Beatle, and a 2-monthold daughter (you will see the importance of including her later) and this is what I imagine it might sound like if they (my animals) could post or tweet: @pugalug: So sleepy! Are you sure we should be up at 5:30? Just because she is doesnt mean I want to be! @beatlecat: It feels sooooo good to stretch. Now I think I will sleep some more. @pugalug: So now that Im up, dont you think you should feed me? She has eaten, been kissed, squeezed, and cuddled all Im asking for is breakfast. PLEASE! @pugalug: Do you have to bring her with us everywhere? I just want some personal time outside to do my morning business. And, I would still like breakfast.
DA N A F E AG I N
To us, our patients are like family. With over 25 years of experience, weve seen families through generations of best friends. We believe in a total wellness approach to veterinary care which helps our patients live long, healthy lives. A blend of compassionate care and the use of the latest medical technology, all at an affordable price, makes Jacksonville Veterinary Hospital the best choice for your pets care.
@pugalug: Squirrel @pugalug: I take it all back! You are amazing little human! Please, please, please... drop another #cheerio! @beatlecat: Not my tail! Not my tail! Please let go of my tail! These little people move so fast! @pugalug: Where are you going? Dont leave! I need breakfast! @pugalug: Finally, some breakfast and some peace and quiet. Maybe they will come home without her but then there will be no more cheerios. So conflicted. @beatlecat: Stupid dog dont just stare at me like you dont know I am here. Let me in! @pugalug: OMG! Theyre home! Theyre home! Theyre home! Theyre home! WiggleWiggleWiggle! #Wiggle!! @beatlecat: Just caught a lizard I am an amazing #hunter! But whats this just a tail? Where did he go? @pugalug: Darn it! She came with them. Oh well, maybe I will get another #cheerio. @beatlecat: Im sure I can scratch a hole in the window if I try hard enough will someone please let me in? Im betting this talk would go on all day and that my pug loves that my daughter is a walking Cheerios vending machine! But in the meantime, I know social media has its place and that maybe someday I will understand it. Until then, I will save my commentary to all things veterinary-related on our business Facebook page and save the tweets for my pets and the birds!

Dogs In Hot Cars

systems, leaving your dog comatose or even dead within just a few minutes. Remember, too, that your dog is wearing a fur coat all the time. Dogs cant sweat like humans can. They can only cool themselves through panting. If the only air available is hot air inside a car, the dog cannot cool himself and will become dangerously overheated in just a few minutes. Never leave your dog in the car even if youll only be gone for a few minutes. Those minutes can mean tragedy. So what about leaving your dogs in the car with the air conditioning running? While that seems like a good idea, it can also be dangerous, because when the car engine gets too hot, the air conditioning systems compressors kick off and begin blowing only hot air. Recently, we learned that two pet parents lost their beloved dogs who were left inside a car with the a/c running during a shopping trip that lasted less than 30 minutes! Dont let a quick trip to the store cause the loss of your beloved fur-babies. Look into those sweet dog eyes, and remember how much you love them and just leave them at home during the spring and summer months!

Its that time of year again the time we all enjoy getting out and being outside in the warm sun. Our dogs enjoy it, too. My dog stands at the door and wags her tail, just itching to go for a car ride. But sometimes, I have to say no. Sure, its hard to disappoint my dog. After all, I want her to be happy and have fun, but its my job to make sure she is safe, and a car in warm weather is no place for a dog. Even when the temperature outside is mild, say 68 degrees, the temperature in a careven parked in the shade with the windows crackedclimbs to 90 degrees. If the car is parked in the sun, the temperature in the car can climb much higher. On a 90 degree day, the temperature inside a parked car can reach 119 degrees in just 20 minutes. That temperature is deadly to dogs causing damage to the nervous system, cardiovascular system, and other bodily
Sanctuary One Receives Martha Young Award

Sanctuary One, a nonprofit care farm located in the Applegate Valley, is pleased to announce that they have been selected as the 2013 recipient of the Martha Young Award. This prestigious award is presented by the Cow Creek Umpqua Indian Foundation (CCUIF) in honor of the founding executive director of the CCUIF and her passionate commitment to children. The Sanctuary was also selected to receive a $2,000 grant to help improve access for people with disabilities. The funds will be used to purchase a golf cart so that people with a mobility disability may participate in more of the Sanctuary's recreational, educational, and therapeutic programs. The mission of the CCUIF is to offer assistance in youth education, to strengthen youth and family, to provide positive youth development, and to add to the quality of life for people in southwestern Oregon. Since 1997, the CCUIF has awarded $12,954,289 in grants to nonprofit organizations. Awards are made semiannually, in January and June. This past June, at an awards ceremony held at the Seven Feathers Convention Center in Canyonville, the CCUIF awarded $413,636 in grant funding to 58 nonprofits located in southwestern Oregon. In a prepared statement, CCUIF executive director Carma Mornarich said, "In today's world we say that the Cow Creek Umpqua Indian Foundation gives grants in seven counties. It's good to remember that hundreds of years ago, when Cow Creek giving was equally generous, there were no counties. There was Cow Creek ancestral homeland in the approximate location and size of the seven counties we give to today. Hundreds of years ago, the giving was also diverse and flexible. That wonderful legacy has continued with the Cow Creek Umpqua Indian Foundation. We are so fortunate that we can respond to targeted needs by focusing on programs that benefit children and families in our local communities."

Let's Talk Real Estate

by Graham Farran, Expert Properties
very week, the media offers us a barrage of articles about interest rates, foreclosures and home priceswe are frequently asked what it all means to those of us living in Southern Oregon, Jacksonville and the Applegate. In general, we are in-line with the majority of the housing industry in the United States which has been on an upward trend, but there are exceptions. Here is a recap of real estate prices, sales and interest rates and how they have affected our local market. Interest Rates: Life after easy money The Federal Government has done a great job of creating a cheap supply of money, giving us historically-low interest rates which in-turn has stabilized the economy and improved the housing market. These measures are called Quantitative easing, which is a process in which the government buys financial assets to increase the money supply. Our government is currently buying treasury bonds at the rate of $85 billion-a-month to keep our interest rates low. But all good things must end and as the economy improves, we will most likely see interest rates slowly climb or at least level-out. Most analysts doubt that we will see 3%, 30- year mortgages in the near future. As the economy in the United States strengthens and shows moderate growth, the Federal Reserve is rethinking the future course of Federal policy and has suggested that they could pare back on this program later this year. Ben Bernanke, the Federal Reserve Chairman, compared the potential scaling-back to lifting a foot off the gas pedal of a car. So, the economy is improving but interest rates have gone up. At the moment, bankrate.com shows the average fixed 30-year mortgage at 4.37%. While the rising interest rates will cause some potential borrowers to rethink their purchase decisions, savvy buyers will act now to lock in interest rates while still at historic lows. Foreclosures: Not yet goneAlthough we have seen a drastic decrease in the number of bank-owned sales compared to the number of overall home sales, and the number of homes going into

endless documentation. Also, with prices increasing, it can be difficult to get a home to appraise. New appraisal processes have not helped. The new processes have decreased the amount appraisers earn and have forced many quality appraisers out of business. With fewer experienced appraisers, appraisers are forced to work in areas they do not know or understand well, causing deals to fail because of lack of quality appraisals or appraisals that are short by just a few thousand dollars. What is frustrating is buyers are getting preapproved only to be denied three weeks into the transaction by the final underwriting process or a low appraisal. For the housing market to fully return to a normal market, we will need to loosen credit, qualification standards and appraisals. Home Prices: Up, Up, UpHousing continues to be a bright spot in our economy as Case-Shiller reported that its 20-city home price index rose 12.1 percent year over year in April of this year. The 20city indices have improved year-over-year for 10 straight quarters, the first time thats happened since 2006. On the local scene, much has been published about the almost 17% increase in the median home price in the second quarter this year, but we need to take a closer look at what is really happening. The median price of a home can increase in two ways. Most people think their home value went up 17% in the second quarter and maybe it did, but most likely the increase was caused more by the makeup or type of home sales than by the average home price going up. One can see by the detailed sales numbers below that the market has changed in 2013. The high end or over $500,000 market is back! Home sales over $500,000 have increased dramatically compared to this time last year and that will bring up the median price of all home sales. In Jacksonville, we have seen 15 homes sell over $500,000 compared to only 2 last year. In the Applegate Valley we have seen 10 homes sell over $500,000 compared to only 1 the first half of last year. We still havent seen any homes sell for over $1,000,000 in the Applegate or Jacksonville and currently there are 16 listed for sale over the $1,000,000 mark. Although our local real estate market has

default has decreased, the problem is not yet resolvedit simply has been delayed. There are plenty of homes in the Rogue Valley that have been in default for years, commonly known as shadow inventory, which are homes the banks have strategically chosen not to foreclose on because there is no market for them. But with the strengthening market and home prices climbing, banks may move to foreclosure on these homes now and get more of their investment back. Lending Requirements: Tough & TougherThe last few years have seen tough lending requirements that include requiring higher credit scores, no discrepancies in credit history, and higher income requirements.

Hike, Wine & DineApplegate Valley's Red Lily Vineyard

The Applegate Trails Association (ATA) will host a hike followed by lunch at Red Lily Vineyards (11777 Hwy 238), Sunday, August 18th, at 9:00am. Join us in the beautiful Applegate Valley to hike the hills around the vineyard in an area rarely seen by the public. ATA will lead two groups on separate loop hikes, both rated moderate and approximately 3-miles in length. Part of our hike will be along the south-side of the Applegate River where 3000 of frontage was recently cleared of blackberries to be replanted and restored in native trees this fall. The trees will provide shade, thereby cooling this stretch of river, to help future generations of Chinook salmon. There is an existing cool area available along the river for relaxing and outside dining. Lunch will be catered by Fulcrum Dining and Red Lily will have wine, beer and appetizers for purchase. For additional information about Red Lily Vineyard or Fulcrum Dining see www.redlilyvineyards. com and www.fulcrumdining.com. Please RSVP the hike leader, David Calahan (541-899-1226) david@ applegatetrails.org , to ensure a place on this sure-to-be popular hike. Hikers should wear appropriate clothing for the weather and sturdy footwear. Remember to bring plenty of water for what may be a warm summer day. Please leave your pets at home. ATA would appreciate a $5 donation at sign-in. ATAs mission is to create new trails and preserve historical paths for hiking, mountain biking and equestrians in the Applegate Valley. Our primary project is to connect Jacksonville to Grants Pass via the proposed Applegate Ridge Trail (ART). The east end of this trail system would connect to the proposed JackAsh Trail, running from Jacksonville to Ashland and someday onto the Pacific Crest Trail. Your support is very much needed and appreciated. Donations are tax deductible. Send your check to P.O Box 115, Jacksonville, OR 97530. For selfguided hikes, additional information or online donations see our website at www. applegatetrails.org. Thanks and happy trails.
