It still needs to be regulated.There is no tradeoff in Oregon forprotecting water.”Lauren Hughes, part of LO Stewards,a group opposed to the way the cityregulates sensitive lands, told the councilon Tuesday that she supports a proposalpresented about a year ago byDave Hunnicutt of Oregonians in Action.Hunnicutt proposed shifting sensitivelands restrictions from residentialproperties to larger tracts of publiclyowned lands, such as Foothills Park,Roehr Park and Luscher Farm. Residentialproperties would still be regulatedby the city’s community developmentand tree codes.Hughes said the existing programunfairly targets a small number of citizens’backyards while allowing developmenton properties with similar ormore valuable natural resources.“If you want to trade, you trade withpublic land,” Hughes told the council.“You do not trade with my backyard oranybody else’s.”See COUNCIL / Page A4Art on adeadlineREVIEW PHOTO: VERN UYETAKEDeborah Marble shows art she was hired to create during a 2008 federal court hearing involving Tre Arrow, an environmental activist whopleaded guilty to charges of arson.■ Deborah Marblesketches courtroomscenes in a flashBy KARA HANSEN MURPHEYThe ReviewDeborah Marble isknown in the artworld for her watercolorpaintings, whichappear at the Portland Art Museum’sRental Sales Galleryand in local shows throughoutthe year.She also isTo see moreone of the relativelyfew artistswho give thepublic a glimpseof high-profiletrials when camerasaren’t allowedin thecourtroom.Marble practicesthe slowlydying art ofcourtroomsketching, compressingthedrama of a day in court into asingle drawing that capturesthe emotions and action of ahearing or trial.A watercolor artist and formerphysical therapist, Marblehas been drawing and paintingcourtroom scenes for a varietyof news organizations for thepast 26 years.

LOT appealed thedecision in December to the citycouncil. After several rounds ofhearings and a continuation ofone meeting along with the additionof nearly two dozen conditionsof approval, the city councilapproved the projects.Lake Oswego has operated awater treatment plant in WestLinn’s Robinwood neighborhoodsince 1968. In cooperation withthe city of Tigard, Lake Oswegowants to expand the plant andrun a new pipeline to addressthe future water needs of bothcities.The plant, which will hold upto 2 million stored gallons of waterunderground and handle upto 38 million gallons each day, alsoserves as an emergency backupwater supply for West Linn.Along with a new plant, theproject involves the installationof a 4-foot-diameter pipelinefrom the Clackamas Riverthrough West Linn and intoLake Oswego. The pipeline,which will be broken into fourconstruction phases, will extend1.9 miles in West Linn, crossingthrough both residential andcommercial areas.The West Linn council contendsthat the projects will benefitthe community thanks to anemergency water intertie agreementthat would run to perpetuity,along with a $5 million lumpsumpayment and $10,000 for theRobinwood community center.However, residents have continuallyfound fault with the sizeand scope of the project.William J. More, managingmember of the Robinwood ShoppingCenter, Carl and Linda Edwards,Curt Sommer and RobertStowell filed an appeal againstthe water pipeline.Two more appeals, oneagainst the pipeline and oneagainst the water treatmentplant, were filed by STOP LLC,which is a registered group ofcitizens opposed to the projects,as well as former Mayor NormanKing, Pete Bedard, MichaelMonical, Carol and Mark Elsworth,Shanon Vroman, JenneHenderson, Lamont King,Thomas and Gwen Sieben, Scottand Jan Gerber, Jack Norby,Thom Holder, Gary Hitesmanand Rebecca and Darryl Walthers.According to LOT CommunicationsDirector Jane Heisler,Lake Oswego has already intervenedto defend the permits andto keep the wheels in motion.Although residents have filedappeals on the permits, thisdoesn’t stop LOT from proceedingwith its plans and work. TheLake Oswego City Council hasalready approved some contractsto start work.“We have an approval fromWest Linn and we are continuingon,” Heisler said.On March 5 the Lake OswegoCity Council discussed proceedingwith contracts despite thepending legal issues. Somecouncilors were more hesitantto approve contracts that wereless time-sensitive.Project Director Joel Komarekassured the council membersthey could, and should, proceed.“If we were to wait until everypermit was secured ... wecouldn’t do anything,” he said.“You have to do design to evenapply for permits.”Work started on Monday withthe removal of about 200 trees,which will take about threeweeks, to provide room for facilitiesand construction activity.LOT is also moving forward withthe installation of security fencingand a “good neighbor” fencethat will block plant constructionfrom neighbors’ view.The West Linn City Councildiscussed the start of work onthe water plant site and neighbors’concerns during its March18 work session.Neighbors are expressingconcern that trees are being removedand work is starting despitethe LUBA appeal and questioningwhether LOT will haveto conduct mitigation if LUBAoverrules the council’s approvals.Assistant City Attorney MeganThornton said she was fairlycertain LOT would have to replacethe trees if the decisionwas reversed.Dave Froode, the managingpartner for STOP and a Robinwoodresident, questioned LOT’sdecision to start work.“What is the big rush? Whatis the next thing after tree cuttingthey have to get done to justifydropping hundred-year-oldtrees before they are guaranteedpermits?” he asked.Resident Scott Gerber alsoasked, “How do you ‘mitigate’the destruction of a hundredyear-oldtree?”According to Heisler, plans forerosion control and drill testholes for the pilings are alsomoving forward. Also, LOT willbe sending out requests for proposalsin April for a contractorfor the water treatment plant.Several West Linn councilorsexpressed disappointment thatLOT has not moved quickly onestablishing a 24-hour hotline forresidents to call.“There are things LOT can bedoing, i.e., the hotline,” CouncilPresident Mike Jones said. “Wehave some legitimately upsetcitizens and we need some ofthings done as soon as possible.”“They said they were going tobe a good neighbor,” CouncilorJenni Tan said. “When they arenot doing that, it’s such a badfeeling, a bad taste.”“We need to tell them whatelse we want them to do for ourcitizens,” Mayor John Kovashsaid.Members of the West LinnCity Council all agreed that theywould like to meet with themembers of the Lake OswegoCity Council to discuss publicoutreach.According to LUBA, an appealdoes not automatically stop developmentthat has already beenapproved by a city. A “motion forstay” must be filed and approvedbefore the brakes can be put ona project. No motions have beenfiled yet. State law requires thepetitioner to post a $5,000 bond ifLUBA grants a stay. If LUBA upholdsthe city council’s decision,then the bond would be used toreimburse LOT for attorneyfees.The next step gives the city ofWest Linn 21 days to file withLUBA a copy of the record of itsdecisions. From there, any partyhas 14 days to object to the contentsof the record.420992.032113 438269.031413Lake GroveLIQUORSTARBUCKSRITE AIDZUPAN’SMARKET16364 Boones Ferry Rd.Lake OswegoZUPAN’SFLORALLAKE GROVELIQUORJEFE LAPROVANCE★WE’RE HERE!WE’RE HERE!New, larger store locateddirectly behind Zupan’s floral shop.Designated parking lot in back!• HUGE selection of SCOTCH • Walk-in Humidor• Special orders available • Friday night tastings503-636-0310www.lakegroveliquor.com(Formerly Mt.

Yellow andwhite are the colors of theflag of Vatican City.“In conversations with parishonersat Our Lady of the LakeCatholic Church, I can tell theyare very excited about our newPope Francis,” said Father JohnKerns of Our Lady of the Lake. “Many have told me that they aregrateful to see the outward displayon our church celebratingwith Catholics around the worldthe election of Pope Francis.”The bunting is traditionallytaken down after the installationof the pope, however the buntingat OLL will remain in place untilafter the installation of AlexanderSample as Archbishop ofWest Oregon on April 2.Not valid withany other offer • Delivery e r $18 minimum nOnecoupon n perorder • Expires r11/30/11/11Our Lady of theLake CatholicChurch placed abunting above itsdoors in honorof the election ofthe new pope, asis tradition inthe Catholicchurch.REVIEW PHOTO:VERN UYETAKEDid you know… Deno’s offersGLUTEN-FREEversions of ALL their pizzas!You can also get SOY CHEESEif you have a dairy allergy.Making homemade pizza in Lake Oswegofor more than 20 years!4475 SW Lakeview Blvd • Lake Oswego • 503-635-6219www.denospizzeria.com412139.030713■ From page A1years. But when there is a case,it’s a big one.”Marble drew scenes from thetrial of Mohamed Mohamud,found guilty this year of plottingto bomb a holiday tree-lightingceremony in Portland, and hearingsinvolving Reaz Khan, a cityof Portland employee accused ofconspiring to finance terroristactivity.She always makes sure to arriveearly.“I want to have something tosay about where I sit, and it’s allfirst-come, first-served,” Marblesaid. “They don’t save me aplace or anything.”Working on deadline for themedia means working fast. Forher depiction of the jury’s verdictin the Mohamud case, shestarted with the judge and thecourtroom’s flag and seal — “it’snice to put a little context in,”she explained — and then drewthe attorneys and defendant.The picture took about sevenminutes.“That’s part of the game; I reallyenjoy that,” she said. “Theidea that you can draw quicklyis surprising for most people.I’ve just always thought it wasfun.”“I’ve rarely had a call morethan 24 hours in advance of anything,”Marble said.Unlike painting someone’sportrait, there isn’t time todwell on the work and polish everydetail. And sometimes thejob entails listening to somegrisly stories.Marble sketched the trial ofDayton Leroy Rogers, a prolificserial killer now on death rowfor the murders of six women.He was reported to have a footfetish and sawed off some victims’feet before dumping theirbodies in a Molalla forest.But she remains unfazed.“I try not to have strong opinions,because I know I haven’theard the whole thing,” Marblesaid. “And you kind of go inknowing what the case is aboutso it’s not like it’s a big shock.”She said the best people todraw have distinguishing features:unusual eyebrows, astrong nose, a moustache or amess of curly hair — “thosekinds of things that you canhook a pencil on and it’s instantlyrecognizable.”Take Bud Clark, the belovedmayor of Portland from 1985 to1992. She said he “was sure funto draw” when he took the witnessstand in 1990, after Portland’sfirst woman police chieffiled a federal sexual discriminationlawsuit against the city.Another interesting subjectwas a New York defense attorneyin the case against “Thenews A3Artist: ‘I’ve always thought it was fun’438019.032113For the Freshest, Most Flavorful,Healthiest Produce,GROW YOUR OWN!* Strawberries* Grapes* Raspberries* Asparagus* Rhubarb* BlueberriesAll Availableto Plant Now!Let us help you.15955 SW Boones Ferry Rd.in Lake OswegoGarden: 503-636-2414* Onions* Potatoes* Lettuce* Peas* Spinach* And more!Daily 9am-6pmSunday 10am-5pmMarble drew thisscene from ahearing involvingWard Weaver III,convicted ofmurdering two girlsin Oregon City.REVIEW PHOTO:VERN UYETAKEPortland Six,” an accused terroristcell after the Sept. 11 attacks.“He had a great profile, lots ofcurly hair, a ponytail and aBrooks Brothers three-piecesuit,” Marble said. “He wasbeautiful to draw.”And he was a fan of her workbefore he even saw it.“He came waltzing up and,before I’d even picked up mypencil, said ‘I’ll buy it.’”But as jobs have thinned, sohave the ranks of courtroomartists. On a recent case, Marblestruggled to find an alternateartist for broadcasters. Theyended up partnering to hire herand shared her finished work.“There were four or five of uswho used to do it routinely,”Marble said. “It seems as if I’mthe only person in town who’savailable to do this now.”As states increasingly lifttheir bans on cameras in courtrooms,it seems only a matter oftime before the same happensin federal courts, Marble said.If that happens, she wouldn’targue. However, she said, “I willbe sad, because I enjoy this alot. It’s always exciting.

All myfriends are talking about it.Signed,Not SureDear Not Sure,Thanks for asking! Since the new insurance plan changes this yearmaking contraception more affordable, IUD’s have become verypopular. They are a covered benefit now for women of reproductiveage. The reason it has sky-rocketed in popularity is that it iseasy to insert by a trained provider in the office, and it tends to stopperiods due to the progesterone in the IUD. Minimal doses get intothe blood stream but most of the hormone remains in the uterinelining to prevent it from building every month, thus no period. Itis approved for all ages including teens and is also a great tool in theperimenopause when periods are often very heavy and irregular.It does involve some cramping and risk at insertion and there arerisks if safe sex is not practiced.There is a smaller/lower dose Mirena IUD that has just beenreleased called SKYLA. It does not render cycle control but is easierto put in, has less hormone and only lasts 3 years. The Mirena is effectivefor 5 years and can be removed and replaced until menopause.Many women use this in place of having a hysterectomy.To be thorough, there is another non-hormonal IUD called Para-Guard. It is copper based, does not control periods and lasts 10 years.At times menses can get a little heavier with this one.We are a busy, IUD center. Women seem very happy with thecycle control and ease of use for contraception. Even better… it isusually covered by your insurance.Thanks for asking!438015.032113■ From page A1She said the new programshould keep the city in compliancewith regional and statepolicies.“We’re talking about 203 acreshere,” she said. “I don’t see thisas being an environmental catastrophethat we give citizens theiryards back.”The odds of securing an easywin at Metro don’t look great, accordingto Ron Bunch, the city’splanning director.

Council members and citizenswill be able to weigh in on the draft profileat a public hearing in a couple of weeks.After that hearing, the council will likely directProthman “how far and wide” to cast hisnet as he looks for candidates. He plans to requesta cover letter, a resume and nine referencesfrom each applicant along with writingsamples in the form of responses to essay questions.Councilor Donna Jordan suggested that thecandidates also be asked to submit copies ofpublished articles they have written.Prothman expects to receive 50 to 60 applicationsand will whittle those down to about 15top contenders, whom he will spend an hourtalking to either in person or over Skype. Thecouncil will then help with another round ofcuts to bring the field to four to six finalists,who will be invited to the city for formal interviews.Former City Manager Alex McIntyre left thejob last year to become city manager of MenloPark, Calif. Assistant City Manager David Donaldsonfilled the position on a short-term basisuntil early this year, when Mayor Kent Studebakertook office and opted to hire Tom Coffee,who remains interim city manager today.

Lake Oswego Review, Lake Oswego, OR March 21, 2013Opinioneditorial A7OUROPINIONKeep lightshining onthe public’sbusinessNo one appreciates the gift of sunlight more than a rainsaturatedresident of Western Oregon. Yet, when itcomes to sunshine of a different kind — the type that illuminatesthe dark corners of government — Oregonianstoo often have been willing to surrender the tools that makeclose inspection possible.You won’t necessarily be able to confirm this with a glance outthe window, but newspapers in Oregon just finished celebratingSunshine Week. This is a time to celebrate not just the FirstAmendment, but also the laws that empower journalists and citizensto attend public meetings, review public records and generallyknow how their tax dollars are used.Oregon once was a leader in government openness, having adopteda strong transparency law in 1973. In the past four decades,however, special interests have chipped away at the law in an attemptto protect their particular agency, industry or constituencyfrom having to reveal information to the public. To date, the Legislaturehas created more than 400 exemptions to the law — exceptionsthat give government officials more than 400 reasons to withholdrecords that otherwise would be available for inspection.Public losing its rightsThe assault on the public’s right to know continues this legislativesession. Lawmakers are considering bills that would make privatethe names of people receiving benefits from the Public EmployeesRetirement System and that would limit the informationreleased from Oregon Health Licensing Agency investigations.Other bills would keep information about bedbug infestations secretand would block release of transcripts from juvenile courthearings.These aren’t just issues of significance to nosy journalists. Rather,they are matters of broad public concern. Wouldn’t you want toknow the details of a state investigation into your health-care provider?Or whether the hotel you recommend to visiting relativeshas bedbugs?Pamplin Media Group journalists use public records every dayto report important stories to our readers:n Public records have been used in Lake Oswego to monitor issuesrelating to what materials drain into Oswego Lake and a behind-the-sceneslook at accusations about a current police officerwhen he held a job in Washington County.n Portland Tribune reporter Peter Korn used TriMet disciplinaryrecords two years ago to find out how a bus driver with repeatedcustomer service problems and complaints continued towork for the regional transit agency. Months later, the same driverwas fired after another serious issue involving a family in WashingtonCounty.n Tribune reporter Steve Law used public records from the OregonLottery and the Portland Police Bureau for a series of newsstories on continued problems at Jantzen Beach’s Lottery Row.Law’s reporting spurred both state lottery officials and local lawmakersto demand changes in the way lottery restaurants operate.n In Troutdale, Mayor Jim Kight was voted out of office in Novemberafter the Gresham Outlook and other news organizationspressured the city council into releasing an investigation it hadcommissioned to examine the mayor’s conduct.n In Hillsboro, city personnel records gave readers insights intoa police officer who opened fire on colleagues who responded to adomestic-disturbance call to his home in January.n In Cornelius, a complaint filed with the city revealed deep divisionswithin the police department, a rift that resulted in the policechief’s early retirement.Secrecy a growing dangerWhile public records are the raw material for volumes of goodreporting, public officials too often are able to use exemptions tostall or even prevent information from becoming public. In thecase of the Cornelius police chief — who was given a $10,000 severancecheck on his way out the door, amid charges of corruption —city officials now are trying to keep the results of an internal investigationsecret. In their attempt to do so, they cite a litany ofloopholes in the state’s public records law.Because the once-expansive ability to access government recordshas been shrinking by the year, newspaper editors acrossthe nation started Sunshine Week about a decade ago. Our goal isto bring greater attention to the importance of open governmentand the dangers of excessive and unnecessary secrecy.Residents of local communities can help in this effort by consistentlyreminding their city, county, state and federal officials of avery simple concept: The public’s business must be done in public— and any erosion in access to government records is destructiveto a democratic society.Remember, too, that transparency is one of the cornerstonesthat the current Lake Oswego City Council prides itself on andwhich the Review has pledged to ensure.Perhaps Safeway can find away to bring the mural backIwas astounded and pleased to seethe citizen’s view by Evie Proctorwith photo by Sarah DeMerritt regardingthe missing mosaic tileand rock mural that lurks behindsheetrock in the Safeway store on AAvenue, Lake Oswego. This work wascreated by my husband, Arvid Orbeck.It disappeared from view in 2003.When Safeway stores initially cameto Lake Oswego in 1964, there was agreat flap from the artistic communityabout the building’s architectural impacton A Avenue and Safeway respondedpositively with architecturalupgrades and the commission of a decorativepiece of artwork that would celebratethe area.The mural was done as an integralpart of the building’s exterior bearingwall, not as an added decorative piece.A form was made flat on the groundwith a bed of leveled sand. The rocksyou see on Safeway’s walls were set individuallyby expert stoneworkers,then slurry and concrete poured, and,when all was cured, the wall was raisedinto vertical position revealing therock.

We realized in2010 that the LO-Tigard WaterPartnership (LOTWP) hadturned into a major expenditure,which overwhelmed anythingthe city had done in itshistory.Those ofCITIZEN’SVIEWDave Bergus thatread theagreementseveralyears agorealized itwas anotherHammerstad debacle.One (that) would poorly leverageour unique resources. Itwas not hard for citizens withtechnical training to realizeLOTWP was going to be muchmore extensive than originallydisclosed.Once again we are dealingwith a Hammerstad-negotiatedand Hoffman-sponsoredproject. One that has a seriousfinancial impact where MayorHammerstad had initiated anagreement and Mayor Hoffmanlimited debate and disclosure.It has snuck up on thenew council (2013) when citizensrealized the true cost ofthe LO-Tigard Water Partnershipand its impact on our utilityrates. By then it was too littletoo late as planned by prioradministrations.This gives us a good exampleof the real cost of the “taxand spend” majority which hasdominated Lake Oswego politicsfor 12 years. The cost ishidden and when it surfaceswe often have a WEB on steroids.Citizens still don’t realizethe full impact of waterrate increases hasn’t ended.That’s a tragedy and not onlyviolates our ethical sense of“trust” but challenges the currentadministration’s efforts.Unfortunately, previous administrationsrepresented specialinterests and an ideologyof bigger government influence,financed through debtand increased fees, at the locallevel. That’s fine if you believein this philosophy, but not OK,if your decisions force a communityof 37,000 to pay for itwithout a vote.In just two decisions (WEBand LOTWP) successive administrationshave forcednearly $150 million in new debtonto a city that has had historicallyvery low levels of generalobligation debt. Neither ofthese decisions were voted onby the public and neither weresupported by property taxes(makingthem taxdeductible).Theycame fromthe “taxand spend”politicalelite thatbelieved they knew better thanwe did as citizens. It’s a veryunfortunate situation but a lessonto learn for those of usthat just want to have a wonderfulcity, one (that) we canall afford and share.Let’s hope this new counciladdresses the mistakes of thepast and clearly identifiesthem to citizens. It can correctthem and take a direction thatsupports not only our communitycharacter but also preservessome measure of affordability.That is up to thenew council. Citizens knowwhat’s good for the city andgiven enough information theywill make the right decisions.That’s been shown in successiveelections and we nowneed to “encourage” our representativestoward good governance.How? By holding themall accountable for their decisions.Most of us want to see ourcouncilors working together toaddress our “self-inflictedwounds.” Let’s all continue toevaluate, support, criticize andassist all administrations toensure they do what’s neededto preserve our communitycharacter.Feel free to visit COLA LO atcommonsenselo.blogspot.comor commonsenselo.org.Dave Berg is a 22-year resident ofLake Oswego and a board memberof COLA LO.■ I would describe Dr. Petroff as very honest and exceedinglytalented.

Lake Oswego Review, Lake Oswego, OR March 21, 2013Lake Oswego SchoolBoard members musthave a solid understandingof fiscal challengesand opportunities. As a marketingprofessional who has regularlyattended school boardmeetings for the last five years, Iam up to the task.When my family chose to go toone income six years ago, we wentthrough the difficult process ofcutting expenses and saving. Wesought expert advice and foundsolutions that led to financial stability.Our school district must undergothe same process. Theboard is charged with balancingthe budget every year with fundinglargely determined in Salem— no easytask.Followingthe advice ofour administrators,districtleadersbuilt the reservefund to$9 million this year. We will needthis cushion as we look ahead toaddress deferred maintenance inour facilities, face rising PERScosts due to statewide mandatesoutside our control and wait forthe economic recovery to accelerate.State leaders recently proposeda school budget that may offer ourcommunity some stability. Thelegislative budget proposes a 2013-15 K-12 state allocation of $6.55 billion.What will finally emergefrom negotiations among our legislatorsremains to be seen, but aworkable blueprint does seemwithin reach. The school boardhas no official input in these decisions,but, as I have done, all citizensshould contact their staterepresentatives urging dollars forK-12, as well as PERS reform that’slegal and fair to retirees.From the class of 2013 to today’skindergartners who will graduatein 2025, we must prepare studentsto succeed in an increasingly competitiveglobal economy. We mustuse technology to increase efficiencyand to prepare our studentsto be tomorrow’s leaders.As your school board member, ILAKE OSWEGO SCHOOL DISTRICT, POSITION NO. 2Potential exists tomarket our district andattract young familiesCITIZEN’SVIEWSarah Howellwill advocate for increased fundingfrom Salem. But I’ll also makesure our schools are more productive.Gains in achievement mustoutpace the growth of budgets.As a marketing professional atOHSU, I see potential to marketour district and attract young familiesto our area. One differentiatoris the Lake Oswego Schools Foundation.The Foundation raises approximately$1.5 million to $2.5 millioneach year to support teachersin our district. As a third-yearmember of the foundation boardand chair of the marketing committee,I appreciate the generosity ofour volunteers and donors. If youhave not given to the foundation,please consider doing so today atLOSFoundation.org.Open enrollmentoffersthe opportunityfor studentsto transfer intoour community.Each newarrival brings about $6,500 in funding.This year LOSD will offer thisopportunity to up to 150 students —but only if families choose to transferin. Our district needs a marketingstrategy to capitalize on openenrollment each year.Last year, while Lake Oswego’sconservative approach to open enrollmentnetted four new students,neighboring districts attractedas many as 100 students.They did this by offering the opportunityto a wider geographicboundary, and by offering programsthat parents believe areworth the commute.It will be interesting to see howour district competes for thesestudents and the enrollment dollarsthey bring.I welcome your ideas on how wecan have a brighter financial futurein Lake Oswego School District.Please visit my website andstay in touch (SarahForLOSD.com,facebook.com/SarahForLOSD).

The funding strategyand financial pro-forma presentedto the city council onOct. 2, 2012, is a combination of:n $500,000 tennis reservefund — fund balance currentlyis (more than) $696,000n $1 million for the sale ofthe existing tennis center propertyadjacent to SpringbrookParkn $1 million in parks and recsystem development chargesn $2.64 million revenue bond— paid by the fees paid by thepeople using the facility (and)not a cent of taxpayer money. Infact, the city will benefit frombringing the existing tenniscenter property back into thetax base.Construction costs are low.Bond rates are low. This is a fiscallyprudent decision.Marianne ConroyLake OswegoCast your votefor Sarah HowellThis May you have an opportunityto impact the future ofSee LETTERS / Page A12What if we were run like an insurance company?The latest addition tothe expanding list ofthings that get on mynerves is insurancecompanies.Now, I must confess that thiswas all set off by something Imyself did. I backed into a car ina parking lot last fall, and it costmore than $2,000 to fix mycrumpled fender and a similaramount for the car I hit. Let merepeat, it was completely myfault — no question.Of course, I turned in a claimto my insurance company, thesame one I’ve been loyal to forseveral decades now (payingsteadily increasing premiumsevery year, even though I neveractually had an accident).Last week I received a noticefrom my agent, telling me I wasgoing to be paying more for myinsurance at the next renewalperiod “because of an accidentsurcharge” resulting from mySeptember parking lot accident.There was a lengthy explanationof why this was happening,but at the end it stated that,three years from now, if thereare no more such incidents, my“accident free discount” will bereinstated.Being a smart-aleck by nature,I sent my agent a note remindinghim that what I told him on thephone several months ago —Take Charge of Your Future.Create and implement a strategy designed to helpyou achieve your long-term financial goals.Do something positive for yourself. Call today for ano-cost, no-obligation portfolio review. Together, wecan create a strategy that’s right for you based onyour current situation, objectives and risk tolerance.about how insurance companiesseem as expensive, as worthlessand as cowardly as banks and financialinstitutions — still appearsto be true.I know my allegation that insurancecompanies are evil is notexactly breaking news to anybody.And it isn’t as if I used to sitaround pondering the manyways I loved the institutionknown as insurance — but it’sbeen elevated, in my own estimation,to the things I really, reallydon’t like about life on this earth.You see,insurancecompanieshave nowjoined theoil companies,thebanks andprettyJUST ANOTHERPOINTOFVIEWMikel Kellymuch the whole financial industryunder the heading of ThingsWe Don’t Seem To Be Able ToChange But Which Make OurLives Quite a Bit Crappier(TWDSTBATCBWMOLQA-BCD).The reason for my bad attitude,of course, is that all ofthese institutions:A. Charge huge gobs of moneyto exist at all (this is often requiredby law).B. Report humongous profitsevery year, no matter what elseis happening in the world.C. Tolerate no risk to themselveswhatsoever (meaning theyhave the system rigged up frontso they always get their moneyand, if costs should escalate, theythen charge even more).I don’t know if you’ve noticed,but oil companies have neverfailed to make gigantic profits.It doesn’t matter if the economyis up or down, if oil is plentifulor scarce. They always reportprofits of something like 9,000percent. Every year.The same is true for the financialinstitutions. Rememberback when those companiesthat weretoo big tofail came tous withtheir hatsin theirhand andour politicalleadersdecided that we — the workingstiffs of America, who just manageto get from one paycheck tothe next — should give themeven more money (in the formof taxes)? Well, even throughthat couple of years of “financialcrisis,” in which they almostbankrupted the country, we laterlearned that their CEOs,managers and top dogs all receivedmonstrous bonuses andSTILL declared record profits.This is very much like a gamblingcasino getting the taxpayersto give it extra money, in theform of taxes, even though itclearly has set up its games sothe house always wins — which,of course, it does. Oh, I forgot tomention that we all would be requiredby law to go to this casinoa specified number of times.The only way I can see tomake it any clearer is to apply itto the business I’m in. I canpromise you you wouldn’t like itif the newspaper business wasrun this way.First of all, there would be lawsrequiring that everybody has totake a local newspaper. Then, likethe insurance industry, we’d havea guaranteed income stream. Ofcourse, if you didn’t take a paper,you could be thrown in jail forbreaking the law.Then, to make things evenmore insulting, we’d rig it so wecould charge whatever we wantfor our product. How does $10per issue of the paper sound?Sounds pretty good to me. Ofcourse, if we discovered thatyou were either not readingyour paper, or even worse, readingit but doing a poor job of understandingit, we’d be able toraise the cost.Too dumb to understand thenews? OK, Bub, it’s now $20 perissue.And, oh yeah — this thing ofmine you just read about howirritated I am about this wholething? That’ll be an extra $100.Kelly is chief of the central designdesk for Community Newspapers,and he contributes a regular column.Because everyonedeserves the bestfuture.438310.032113Edward Jones ranked “Highest in InvestorSatisfaction with Full Service BrokerageFirms” according to the J.D.

Wewant for our children what all parents want: theeducational opportunities that will allow them tofollow in our footsteps.Like many of you, we chose Lake Oswego as ourhome based on the strong reputation of its publicschools. This reputation has been built over thedecades through the partnership of dedicatedteachers and staff, committed volunteers andfaithfulresidents.However,lookingahead, thedistrict’sreputationmust behonoredCITIZEN’SVIEWKaren Delaneyand enhanced by a school board that leads in abetter way.I believe I have the qualifications to serve on theLake Oswego School Board.

Most importantly, with childrenin grades 5, 9 and 10, I have my head, heartand hands in Lake Oswego schools every day.From now to May 21, I will be attending withmy fellow candidates many forums and town hallmeetings. Through these venues and the Lake OswegoReview I will lay out my proposals for leadingin a better way. These include:n A better way to prepare our kids for college.n A better way to develop workplace skills thatwill be relevant in a changing job market.n A better way to nurture the physical well-beingof our children.n A better way to educate our kids from thestart.n A better way to represent and connect ourneighborhoods.n A better way to manage our district’s financialresources.Please feel free to contact me at delaneyforlosd@gmail.comwith your concerns.

That is why I am totally perplexedand terrified by watching a movementREADERS’LETTERSsweep across Oregon to legalize marijuana.Research shows that marijuana is indeed agateway drug, is a substance that stunts emotionalgrowth and alters brain chemistry. Researchwithin the past 12 months indicates thatan individual’s IQ can be permanently loweredby 10 points if one indulges in this habit duringhis or her teenage years.Unfortunately, intelligence, self motivation, optimismand a sense of responsibility frequentlyfade away as one experiments with this substance.Hopefully, Oregonians will take a firmstand in the fight against legalizing marijuana.We must be vigilant in protecting our children.Patti MoirLake OswegoFrom Muslims toCatholics: CongratulationsAs a member of the worldwide AhmadiyyaMuslim community, I would like to sincerely congratulatethe new head of the Roman Catholicchurch, Pope Francis I, on his recent election.This is not a sentiment unique to me or evennew to Islam. In fact, Prophet Muhammad taughtthat Islam respects all faiths, and particularly respectsthose who dedicate themselves in God’sservice. He also encouraged the freedom of adherentsof other faiths to enter and even pray inplaces of worship erectedby Muslims, to emphasizethat we all worship thesame God.It is in this spirit thatwe regularly host Catholicstudents in our PortlandMosque to engage themin dialogue. It is our hopethat we can strengthenthe Catholic and Muslimties in Portland.

But Sarah takesa critical step beyond that byscrutinizing how our educationdollars are spent in a way thataddresses the realities of 2013.

Wemust elect Karen Delaney.During the last four yearsJohn Wendland has rubberstamped every poor decisionthe district has made. Therehas been no critical thinking tothe outcomes of these poor decisions.Unfortunately, the elementaryschool children andparents have borne the brunt ofMr. Wendland’s (decisions) forthe past four years.Karen Delaney is a hardworking, dedicated and intelligentleader who will bring amuch needed critical eye to thedecisions facing our children.This is one election we can’tsimply close our eyes and hopefor the best.Mr. Wendland has not earnedthe right to be re-elected.Please join me in proudly supportingKaren Delaney.Jeff AhrendLake OswegoDelaney right choicefor school boardI support Karen Delaney forLOSD school board because shehas proven to be on the rightside of all the tough decisions,unlike her opponent.When Scenario B was beinganalyzed, Karen was adamantthe data being used to analyzeenrollment was incorrect andwould lead to closing the wrongschools, predicting capacity issuesand overstated financialbenefit. John Wendland votedto close schools with the wronginformation and then addedportables to deal with capacityissues. He called these errors inenrollment and financial data“glitches.”Karen supports a strong relationshipbetween city and district,but recognizes the needfor separation of governmententities. As a board member,John Wendland supportedFoothills expansion, even whenit included the streetcar. Hethen accepted $2 million fromthe city to save teacher jobs andkeep schools open before votingto close schools and allow districtexpenditures to increase,then took credit for strategicallybanking city money.Karen brings needed stewardshipfor taxpayers and donors.Responsible planning andmanagement of scarce resourcesis essential as district expensesunder the current regimecontinue to grow at twicethe rate of revenues.We need change. Karen Delaneyis the right choice.Melanie KellyLake OswegoClass location:Lake Oswego BusinessCenter Building C6024 Jean RdLake Oswego, OR 97035As a candidate, your platform isshaped by both subjects you arean expert in and by causes youbelieve in. My expertise in businessand veterans’ issues drove two elementsof my platform, while creating customized,outcome-based education opportunitiesfor children and families was mycause.Legislators don’t always get to work onissues that inspired them to run for office.As a sophomore at the Capitol, I’ve becomeaccustomed to working on new issues.Sometimes, I struggle to muster passion forissues we’ve grappled with, but haveworked to find solutions regardless.The breadth of issues coming before legislatorsis staggering. If people think the AffordableCare Act was contentious, it’snothing compared to a 20-year-old struggleabout whether women should be able togive birth in their living room with a midwifeand whether midwives need a license.For two years, I’ve engaged in this subjectand the effort produced a bill that resolvesmany concerns for moms and midwives. Allmy babies were born in hospitals, so I waspersonally surprised to find myself on theside of moms who want home births as asafe delivery option.Before being elected, as a busy mother Inever gave much thought to how roads inour community work. I knew I didn’t likebeing stuck in traffic on the Tualatin-Sherwood(Road) between the grocery store andgetting kids to soccer practice.

At this time Clackamas County isoften in the position of envying what is goingon in neighboring Washington and Multnomahcounties, and Ludlow urged boldnesson acquiring land for business development,lobbying for road building and becomingmore proactive in promoting the assets ofLake Oswego.The lay of the land does not work in ClackamasCounty’s favor.“Compared to Washington County, ClackamasCounty does not have flat land,” saidLudlow, who formerly was mayor of Wilsonville.“Our county has been repeatedlyturned down on land it wanted to bring in fordevelopment. That has had a drastic effecton us. We do not have 50-acre parcels to offerto businesses. Washington County gets theIntels and Nikes and the service industriesthat spin off from them. We want some ofthat.”Despite the lack of large land parcels,Ludlow believes cities of Clackamas Countyoffer a lot.“Lake Oswego has the most educated andaffluent population in the county,” Ludlowsaid. “West Linn, Wilsonville and Lake Oswego,in my opinion, have the best schoolParrish: Drafting a bill starts a conversation■ From page A13LUDLOWdistricts in the state.”Robert Le Chevalier, aformer LOCC president,suggested a more proactiveapproach in reachingout to companies.“Let them know aboutour amenities,” Le Chevaliersaid. “We’re at thestage where we have topromote this communitybecause we’re competing with everybodyelse.”Ludlow agreed.“I think you should sell promotions. Sellyourself,” he said. “Have packets of informationready to show you have spaces for abusiness. We need more industriallands, although Metro isthe ultimate decider on that.”Roads are at the top of Ludlow’slist of ways to revitalizethe economy.“We’ve thrown plenty ofmoney at light rail,” Ludlowsaid. “To continue to thrive weneed roads and highways. Canwe please reinvest in our ownroadways? There is a tremendouslack of money for roadrepairs.“Our county roads are nowsuffering. If we let them go tothe point where there is waterpenetration of roads, the nextstep will be replacing roads,and that will require a hugetax. We want to aggressivelytake on road repair. Our commissionersare constantly lobbyingthe state Legislature todo something about this. Butunlike other lobbyists we don’thave checkbooks. But if we expressthe need enough, I thinkthe Legislature will pass it.”The future of the developmentof the Stafford Hamletwas another key item on Ludlow’smeeting agenda.“It’s the crown jewel ofClackamas County. It’s a cherished,beautiful area,” saidLudlow, who noted that thesurrounding cities have yet tocome to the table to discuss thefuture of Stafford. “The hamletis now ready for change tocome. The commission feelsrated Washington County adjacent to Wilsonvilleto build a 51-acre veterans’ complexcomplete with housing and health care forveterans in need.The other bill attempts to open up alternativesfor the proposed development atWanker’s Corner. Land use laws allow for afood composting facility to be sited on StaffordRoad. But the same law designed toprotect and restrict certain uses has had anunintended consequence of letting somethingpotentially worse be built at theroundabout.These bills may not be the right path tosolve land use problems. However, draftinga bill starts a conversation between stakeholderswho then come to the table togetherto find solutions. Those conversationsaren’t easy; sometimes they’re downrightDwight Schwabwww.Schwab4Homes.com503-635-0000strongly Stafford should be developed muchsooner rather than later. The developmentof Stafford would help this entire area.”While there is much reason to feel goodabout the economic future of the cities ofClackamas County, there are some disappointments.Douglas Cushing, chairman of the LOCCgovernment affairs committee, noted, “TheKruse Way corridor is rather empty.”Ludlow believes strong action will turnthe situation around in Lake Oswego, and hewants the Cwmas County commissioners tolead the way.“The bottom line is we must be very aggressiveabout promoting business andprosperity,” Ludlow said.Second Street progressREVIEW PHOTO: VERN UYETAKECrews pour concrete during construction work Monday onSecond Street between A and B avenues downtown.Concrete will form the shells for eight stormwater-filteringplanters, part of improvements the city is making on thestreet.ugly.

Lake Oswego expectsto have a strong defensivesquad but, in a loss this year toMcNary and a win over Putnam,the Lakers combined tocommit nine errors.“That’s pretty uncharacteristicfor us. It’s not really a concernright now. We have someguys who are just joining theteam from basketball and it’sjust about getting that repetitionin practice,” coach JakeAnders said.Lake Oswego’s line-upshould also be extremely formidablethis year. The Lakerswere dangerous last year butoccasionally struggled to stringreview file PHOTO: vern uyetakeHarrison Ramey will take over as Lake Oswego’s shortstop this year ona team that hopes to win the brutal Three Rivers League.key hits together. Andersdoesn’t expect that to be as bigof an issue this spring.“I think our line-up will bemore consistent than it waslast year. Our guys have a goodapproach,” Anders said.A year of adjusting to thenew bats around the stateshould also help the Lakers.“That should make a difference.The guys know that ifthey don’t square up the ball,they’re not going to be verygood hitters,” Anders said.Mitch McLaughlin returns tocatch for the Lakers this yearafter splitting time at the positionin 2012.Lake Oswego’s infield is seasonedwith power-hitting ReidPenny as first base, Sanders atsecond, Harrison Ramey movingto shortstop and HarrisonReece manning third base.In the outfield, Andersonwill anchor things in centerfield,flanked by Horak andColeman while Kjemhus, KennyOyama and Oscar Stout willfill utility roles.The Laker line-up featuresfew if any weaknesses andshould be able to both hit forpower and manufacture runswhen necessary.“The games will dictate howwe play. We have guys who candrive the ball but we’ll have toplay smart and do what weneed to do to win games,” Anderssaid.Lake Oswego will take onsome strong competition in thepreseason before gearing upfor what could be one of themost competitive Three RiversLeagues in years.“Our league is so brutal.Clackamas is loaded and thedefending state champs fromOregon City return almost everybody.Since 2004, a teamfrom the TRL has won the statechampionship five times,” Anderssaid.Strong pitching anddefense should guidea strong Lakeridgesquad this yearBy MATT SHERMANThe TidingsVersatility, depth andchemistry will define theLakeridge baseball team thisyear. Coach Colin Griffinclassifies his team as “abunch of grinders,” notingthat it’s that type of playerthat is needed to compete inthe rigid Three RiversLeague.The Pacers are carrying asmall number on varsity thisyear but virtually everyone onthe team can play multiple positions.“We were going through thedepth chart the other night andit’s really just a lot of fun,” Griffinsaid.That gives Lakeridge plentyof flexibility and potentialmatch-up problems for the opposition.Pitching should be a strengthfor the Pacers this year. Lakeridgereturns senior Levi Rudolphas the team’s Mondaystarter. The three-year varsitypitcher could be one of the topin the league this year.Rudolph also doubles as oneof the team’s stronger hitters.Sophomore Cooper Websterand Dutton Elske will be theteam’s other two starters andGriffin has confidence in his rotation.Josh Lowry will also be featuredprominently on themound as the team’s go-to reliever.In what is somewhat of a rarity,all of Lakeridge’s pitcherscan all play in the field and arereview file PHOTO: MATTHEw ShermanLevi Rudolph returns as the ace of what should be a formidablepitching staff for the Pacers.valuable in the line-up as well.Lakeridge’s offense will bepaced by a trio of players whohave all committed to playingcollege ball. Rudolph, CooperHummell and Hank Elliott willbe the catalyst for a balancedline-up that features a mix ofspeed and power.“From top to bottom this isprobably the most athleticismI’ve had on a team since I’vebeen here,” Griffin said.With as much versatility asthe Pacers have on the roster,defense should be anotherstrength this season.“It’s going to have to be withthe pitching that the Three RiversLeague has,” Griffin said.Lakeridge is off to a 2-0 startthis year with victories overSouthridge and Forest Groveand the team is working hardon its execution in practices.“We’ve been lucky with theweather so far and we’re payingattention to the little things.We have guys who take pridein executing a hit and run andtaking the extra base,” Griffinsaid.Lakeridge will travel to Arizonafor a tournament over thebreak as it gears up to take ona very tough Three RiversLeague schedule. Reigningstate champion Oregon City returnsthe bulk of its rosterwhile Lake Oswego and Clackamasare also expected to fieldvery strong squads.“Our goal is to win leagueand I’m confident we can do it.Our seniors are leading theway right know,” Griffin said.Lake Oswego girlseyeing a three-peatLO boys lax team looksto make quick stridesThe Lakers return astrong core from lastyear’s undefeatedseasonBy MATT SHERMANThe Tidingsreview file PHOTO: vern uyetakeJulianna Ramey will man the net for the defending state championLakers again this year.The Lake Oswego girls lacrosseteam enters this seasonwith the same target onits back and the Lakers willremain the team to beat untilsomeone actually goesout and does it.The Lakers are coming off anundefeated season and backto-backstate titles and, althoughthe team only graduatedfive seniors, the losses weresignificant.But Lake Oswego is experiencedand talented and shouldbe very much in contention tomake it a three-peat this year.“We have a strong juniorclass and not too many newfaces. The kids are used to thesystem and so practices havebeen about refining things,”coach Lauren Anderson said.Lake Oswego will continueto stick with what works thisyear, utilizing its skill and athleticismto be a dangeroustransition team. The Lakerswill look to bring pressure allover the field as well to createturnovers.Lake Oswego returns itsgoalie Julianna Ramey whileKate Hearon returns to captaina somewhat inexperienced yetsolid back line.“As a former goalie I knowthat the preference is to neverlet the ball get to the net,” Andersonsaid.Lake Oswego’s midfieldshould rival nearly everyone inthe state, featuring LexiCheetham, who has committedto Louisville, Lily Newman, oneof the team’s top scorers lastyear, Emily Wolfe and AlyssaDragelin, the postseason tournamentMVP last year.Abby Bergevin and MadelineReece will also figure in prominentlyto the midfield while Reeceand Newman will likelysplit time taking face-offs.At attack, the Lakers featuresome newer players but aren’tlacking in scoring threats.Shannon Fender and MadisonLamont will be key targetsthis year.As has been the case in recentyears, Lake Oswego’s primarycompetition will likelycome from within its ownleague.Oregon City and Lakeridgeshould both be strong this seasonwhile West Linn, last year’srunner-up, returns virtually itsentire squad.“There are a lot of good playersand coaches in our leagueand it’s nice to see that competitionevery year,” Andersonsaid.Lake Oswego will travel toDenver in April and the Lakerswill also play an exhibitiongame against Bainbridge at theUniversity of Oregon in May.Hit hard by graduation,the Lakershope to be clickingby the time leaguebeginsBy MATT SHERMANThe TidingsThere will likely be somegrowing pains for the LakeOswego boys lacrosse teamthis year after graduating 12players from its Final Fourteam last season.But, with 72 players in theprogram this year and a talentedmix of youth and experienceready to fill in the gaps,the Lakers expect to be clickingby midseason.“We know we have to getbetter. We hope to be playingour best ball by the time we getinto the Three Rivers League,”coach Joe O’Donnell said.The biggest turnover for theLakers will be on its defense.Lake Oswego lost the majorityof its back line on what waspossibly the very best defensiveteam in the program’s history.But a large group of playerswill vie for time in front of goaliesMichael Wallace and MattSarver. Austin Sousa and AndrewWrenn figure to be keydefenders for the team thisyear along with returning longstickmidfielder Sam Hoover.“We have eight or nine guyscompeting for time back there.The defense is rebuilding but,when healthy, it’s going to bepretty good,” O’Donnell said.Lake Oswego boasts a physicaland talented midfield, headlinedby Alex Krenek andSpencer Anderson, who is expectedto join the team in thenext few weeks after returningfrom a knee injury he sufferedin the state championship footballgame this fall.Mike Schou will also play abig role in the midfield.“We have some big guys anda lot of speed in the midfield.We’re expecting big things,”O’Donnell said.At attack, Lake Oswego hasmoved JB Holmes up from themidfield this year and the teamshould benefit from a transferfrom California, Nate Gruen.Gary Gates is another returnerwho will be a target on offense.Lake Oswego should be adangerous scoring team thisyear and will play considerablymore up-tempo than last year’sdefensive-minded team.The Lakers got off to a toughstart with a 17-2 loss to Sunset,the team that knocked it out ofthe semifinals last year.But Lake Oswego reboundedwith a narrow 12-11 loss toSouthridge in a game wherethe Lakers showed marked improvement.“We had a good week ofpractice and I think the kidssurprised themselves with howfar they came in just thatweek,” O’Donnell said.Lake Oswego will travel toWashington later this week totake on some of the top teamsin the state and Canada.review file PHOTO: vern uyetakeLake Oswego’s JB Holmes has made the transition from midfield to attack this year on a Laker team thatfeatures plenty of new faces.

Marshall got the cutout of Roy from a grocery store, but the cutout of Dale just showed up one day.By CLIFF NEWELLThe ReviewREVIEW, TIDINGS PHOTO: VERN UYETAKE■ Memories of idolized movie horse are part of Roy Rogers exhibit at Oswego Hills WinerySUBMITTED PHOTORoy Rogers and Trigger were always a giant hit when they appeared at parades. At his peak,Trigger was almost as popular as Santa Claus.Many unusual and remarkableauctions have taken place at thefamed Christie’s auction housein New York City, but none wasas colorful or emotional as the bidding onJuly 14, 2010.The item causing such high anxiety was astuffed and mounted horse. But not just anystuffed horse. It was Trigger, the golden palominoridden by Roy Rogers, King of theCowboys. The auction hall was filled withpeople wearing western wear, and manywere in tears. But there were some sadsighs, too.There were old friends of Roy Rogers andhis wife, Dale Evans (Queen of the West),who said Trigger and the other objects fromthe old Roy Rogers-Dale Evans Museumshould never have been put up for auction.They said Roy and Dale were spinning intheir graves.However, another of Roy’s old buddiesclaimed that Roy had told him that after hedied he hoped he would be stuffed, mountedand put on Trigger’s back. Of course, thisunprecedented re-teaming never came topass.The final bid on Trigger, who looked magnificentrearing back on his hind legs, was$266,000 by the owner of the Omaha, Neb.,RFD-TV network who wanted to use himand Rogers’ dog, Bullet (purchased for$35,000), as props for reruns of Rogers’ TVshow.Now, the lovers of Roy and Trigger inLake Oswego and West Linn can visit a tinymuseum that is steadily rising at OswegoHills Winery on Rosemont Road. It is madeup of memorabilia stacked around a pianothat is located in a building that was oncethe barn where Trigger was boarded on hisvisits to the Northwest. Yes, the world’s“Smartest Horse” (as he was billed) onceroomed at Spring Meadows Farms, KenHall’s ranch for Arabian horses, which 60years ago occupied the land where the winerynow stands.“Was I a Roy Rogers fan?” asked wineryowner Jerry Marshall. “Yes. Wasn’t everybody?”No horse in American movie history hada more impressive resume than Trigger, althoughTrigger didn’t start out as Trigger.He was named Golden Cloud at his birth in1932, and he soon got the plum role of thehorse ridden by Maid Marian, played by Oliviade Havilland, in the great swashbucklerclassic “The Adventures of Robin Hood” in1938. True movie stardom quickly came hisway.When Roy Rogers was getting ready tostar in his first movie for Republic Pictureshe was offered his choice of five horses. Hechose Golden Cloud and quickly renamedhim Trigger, a more suitable name for themount of a cowboy movie star.The rest is history. Trigger went on to costarwith Rogers in 91 movies and later 100TV episodes, as Rogers rode him right tothe heights of popularity with Americanchildren. Together they chased down countlessbad guys and rescued fair maidens,mostly Dale Evans. When Trigger wasn’tperforming horse heroics onscreen, he wasteaming with Rogers at countless public appearancesand mobbed by masses ofscreaming kids. Besides being an incrediblybeautiful golden palomino stallion, Triggerwas the smartest thing on four legs. Hecould react to 150 cues and could walk up to50 feet on his hind legs, a truly thrillingsight. Trigger was also kindhearted. WithRoy on his back, he could bound up three orflights of stairs in a hospital to visit sickchildren.Trigger was inseparable from the mostpopular cowboy in the land. He had his owncomic book, his own memorabilia (includinglunch box) and his own fan club. He wasAmerica’s horse. When Trigger died in1965, Rogers couldn’t bear to part with him.So Trigger was stuffed, mounted and placedfirst in the Roy Rogers-Dale Evans Museumin Victorville, Calif., then relocated whenthe museum closed and relocated to Branson,Mo., where he continued to enchant acouple more generations of children untilthe museum closed in 2009.Thanks to Jerry Marshall, the legend ofTrigger is continuing in Lake Oswego, althoughhe had no notion of starting a Triggershrine when he began the herculeantask of building Oswego Hills Winery in1997.“Trigger used to stay here when RoyRogers would visit the Northwest,” Marshallsaid. “He was a friend of Kenneth Hall,who really did well for himself and was theclosest to anything Portland had to a socialite.”He added: “Who knows? We might bestanding at the site of Trigger’s stall rightnow.”Still, Marshall was oblivious to Trigger’shistory at the ranch until Hall’s daughtervisited him one day in 2003 and brought ascrapbook to show him. Marshall, who wassuch a cowboy movie fan that he played“Cowboys and Indians” until he was well intohigh school, was immensely intrigued.The scrapbook was filled with fascinatingphotos of the horse ranch from the ’40s and’50s, with charming pictures of Trigger, Roy,Ken Hall, and Buttermilk (Dale Evans’horse). Hall’s daughter gave Marshall thepermission to make prints of the photos.Then things got interesting. Visitors toOswego Hills Winery saw the photos, wereovercome by nostalgia and started bringingin their own Roy Rogers memorabilia. Theybrought comic books, ads for Sugar Crisp, atoy covered wagon, coffee mugs, programs,yo-yos, and, most eye catching, large cutoutsof Roy Rogers and Dale Evans.“I got the cutout of Roy from a grocerystore,” Marshall said. “I’m not sure how thecutout of Dale got here. All of a sudden itshowed up. Now they’re together again.Happy trails.”Great credit for this happy ending goes toMarshall, who found the barn to be in terribleshape when he first acquired the property.He went on to construct an authentic rehabilitationof the building.“It was about to be cleared by Mother Nature.All that was left of the barn was thefoundation,” Marshall said. “But the oldbarn had some good bones in it. It had a lotof lumber you can’t find any place else.”The Trigger collection is a sentimentalpiece of the entire beautiful puzzle that isOswego Hills Winery. However, when peopleyounger than 50 years old view the collection,they ask Marshall, “Who was RoyRogers?” Marshall is happy to tell them.“It was a simpler time,” he said. “Goodguys wore white hats, bad guys wore blackhats, and you didn’t have to worry aboutwho was who.”Yes, Roy Rogers always defeated evil inhis movies. And it was because he rode thegreatest movie horse of them all.SUBMITTED PHOTOSAbove, Trigger, next to the barn, is shown during one of hisvacations at Spring Meadows Farm, where Roy Rogers used toboard him on visits to the Northwest.

Come 5o’clock, they would pull theScotch out from under the deskand have a drink. I learned a lotabout alcohol from them; whatyou are looking for in taste,about glassware, temperaturesand rituals,” she said.Her notebook became filledwith recipes, tips and culturaltraditions associated withcocktails. She adds to it everyopportunity she gets.“When I have a great drinkexperience, I study it,” she said.“I ask the bartender questionsand get to understand how toproduce a good-quality drinkand how to serve it.”Amy is a fan of the traditionsof American classic cocktails.She said making a good martiniisn’t hard, but intricacies ofhow you shake it or using incorrectingredient ratios willreduce one’s success.To launch her blog, Amy recentlyheld a “Martinis LikeYour Grandmother Used toMake” party. At the party,guests sampled vodkas and olivesand determined for themselveswhat they liked and why.There was not an overall winner,which she said was legitimatebecause everyone has apersonal preference.

Itwas very, very serious. Thedoctor, Mother and Daddy and Iwaited and prayed for days in thedarkened bedroom lit only by votivecandles arranged in front of the statueof Mary, mother of God, on themantle. There were no medicationsat that time, only cool compressesand liniments.My father made a vow to theJOTTINGS FROMFIFTHAND Gchurch that if Dottielived he would makea pilgrimage ofthanks to the shrineof Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupre near QuebecCity.It would be the onlyfamily trip we would take while Istill lived at home.I have two vivid memories of thatjourney. One was a day in the Adirondacksin New York. Mother,Daddy, Dottie and I stayed in a cabinon the shore of Lake Champlain.While Mother, whose name was Syl-✍via, and Dotty stayedat the cabin, Daddytook me fishing - yes,fishing!He had never talkedabout a boat orfishing ever before.Yet, there we were,just the two of us in an antiquatedlittle gray rowboat lazing away a fewhours on that sparkly sunny daywith no apparent needs or cares. Wewere actually relaxing.I remember he caught a smallsquiggly fish, smiled, took the hookout of its mouth, blew it a kiss andgently put it back into the cold, crystalblue water. This scene was so outof character and so precious to me ...to see this other side of my father.When we finally arrived at theCatholic shrine in Canada, Daddyand I went to a chapel on thegrounds. When we entered, therewas a long stairway about 6 feetwide going up the middle of thechurch to the second level. Embeddedin the riser of each step weretwo small clear oval boxes. A tinybone chip from a long gone and honoredsaint was in each labeled box.Lining both sides of the stairs weredozens and dozens of crutches andcanes and orthopedic appliances.Yet there were very few peoplenearby. Daddy said that folks whohad been healed left them becausethey didn’t need them any longer.As we got a little closer, there wereseveral steps, then a semicircularlanding facing the central stairway. Itwas there Daddy placed his hand onmy shoulder and whispered, “LittleSylvia, if you want to go up thesesteps, you have to do it on your knees.These steps are the ‘steps of theSee JOTTINGS / Page B9Don’t MissAnotherMomentHearing IsBelievingwith Invisible Hearing AidsJust off ofI-5 on BoonesFerry Rd.503.505.945316699 Boones Ferry Rd, Ste 110Lake Oswego, OR 97035HearPortland.com438018.032113Save $25 on an Air Conditioneror Heat Pump tune-up!21-POINT PRECISION TUNE-UPWe can’t believe it’s that time of year$154 95438151.031413again but any day now your outdoorunit will start up and we’d like tomake sure it’s in good shape!www.specialtyheating.com503 620-5643(regular value $179.95)Call today to scheduleyour preventive care maintenance.Not valid with other offers Expires 4/30/13License CCB#66578Are you the familySenayda is waiting for?“Her smile just lights up the world.”Senayda, age 13, is strong and resilient with hopes forher future with her forever family.

Lake Oswego Review/West Linn Tidings Thursday, March 21, 2013NEIGHBORS B5Change happens — although some people resist itFor decades I’ve beenan early to bed, earlyto rise person. For thelast 10 days or so I’vebarely managed to wake upuntil after 7:30 a.m.That makes me very uncomfortableuntil I realizedthat the change to DaylightSaving Time caused differentbehavior. My body’s expectationto awake with the sunrisenow is delayed by an hour.That explanation contributesto the prominent belief thatolder people resist change.That’s an idea that has beenaround for years.John Steinbeck said, “It isthe nature of a man as hegrows older to protest againstchange, particularly changefor the better.”James Gordon, M.D. said,“It’s not that some peoplehave willpower and somedon’t. It’s that some people areready to change and othersare not.”These quotes are from “FacingAge Finding Answers,” mybook published in 2008. Sincethen recalling some personalexperience has added to mycollection of stories about unwillingnessto change.A dozen years ago I washaving lunch with a long-timeolder friend when she complainedabout difficulties withArdisStevensonstories forpositive agingmaking phone calls, and herfrustration with the operatorwho answered her call withmultiple directions: “Press 1for status of orders. Press 2 fordelivery schedule. Press 3 foraccount balance, etc.” Shesaid “These telephone peopleare fools! There are no numberbuttons to push on myphone! There’s a dial.” Her tiradedemonstrated her commitmentto resisting change. Ifher phone still worked why geta new one. (Recently, a friendsaid his mother accepted theneed for a new phone. She acceptedthe change, put thenew phone on a closet shelfand never had it connected.)I’m proud of my ability toaccept change. Since 1984 I’vehad a computer that replacedthe old Royal typewriter. I usethe Internet to pay bills andbalance my check book. Andalthough I do not have a cellphone, I do have four phoneextensions and each providesme with caller ID.Some of the old rules of etiquetteno longer matter. Whena couple walked down thestreet the man was to stay onthe curb side of the walkwayto protect the lady from mudsplashes of passing horses.Most of Emily Post’s rules ofetiquette have vanished. However,in watching the AcademyAwards on TV I realized Ihave a collection of attitudesthat are examples of my resistanceto change — resistancethat is to my benefit. When Iwas a teenager I worriedabout wearing proper clothingfor whatever event was pending.As a young lady my worstfear was being told “Your slipis showing!” That’s an old beliefthat I’ve retained. Withwhat is in style today lotsmore than a slip shows.Stories for Positive Aging is asemi-monthly column on senior issueswritten by Lake Oswego authorof “Facing Age, Finding Answers,”Ardis Stevenson.

While most of thecast and crew areseasoned veteransof the stage, afew are quiteyoung. What theylack in age, howeverthey morethan make up forin talent, enthusiasmand a desireto learn.REVIEW, TIDINGS PHOTO: VERN UYETAKELakeridge drama students Ollie Bergh, Trevon Jensen and Daniel Apsey, back, are part of the cast and crew of Neil Simon’s“Rumors,” directed by Joe Theissen.Ollie Bergh,Trevon Jensen andDaniel Apsey werehandpicked by Theissenfor “Rumors” from LakeridgeHigh School, where Theissen hasbeen drama department head for thepast year and a half. Heavily involvedwith professional theater himself asboth an actor and director, Theissenencourages his students to take thatstep onto the professional stage.Lakeridge senior Ollie Bergh is castas Officer Pudney in “Rumors.” FellowPacers Daniel Apsey and Trevon Jensenserve as the show’s assistantstage manager and on the run crew,respectively.Bergh, who has a long history of performingon the Lakeridge stage, plansto be a theater or music major at WesternOregon State College next fall.Aspey already has experience as astage manager. He served in that capacityfor the school’s fall musical andassisting on the Pixie Dust Productionof “Legally Blonde,” at the NewmarkTheater in Portland. He served an internshipwith Broadway Rose Theaterin Tigard and will enroll at PortlandState University next fall to study theatretech and psychology. In “Rumors”he assists the manager with communicatingwith technical crew and callscues for lighting and sound effectsand coordinates with the run crew forscene changes, among other duties.Jensen wants to direct. He servedas assistant director for “Nerd,” theplay presented by members of thefreshman and sophomore classes earlierthis winter. He plans to attendPortland Community College andthen eventually a theater school. Inhis role as a member of the run crewhe performs set changes and othertasks during the show.Is working on the professionalstage any different from working onthe high school set?“The feeling isn’t as intense on theprofessional stage as at high school,”said Bergh. “In the professional theateryou see more cooperation, whenthey are given notes (by the director),they act on them, where at high schoolthey might argue their motivationwith the director. At the same time,Joe tries to treat high school studentsin the same professional manner andas adults. He has improved our dramaproductions so much in the year and ahalf he has been there. It’s phenomenal!”“Shadowing professionals reallyhelps to see how to improve at thehigh school level,” said Apsey.A release from Lakewood Centersays that Neil Simon’s comedy “Rumors”is about an anniversary dinnerparty of Charlie and Myra. When Ken(Darius Pierce) and his wife Chris(Brooke Lynn Calcagno) arrive theyfind Charlie lying upstairs with a holein his earlobe and Myra is nowhere tobe found.The help is gone and dinner sits unpreparedin the kitchen. The guestsdecide to cover up the incident butthe task is nearly impossible. Thewall of secrecy crumbles as moreguests arrive, including Claire andLenny Ganz (Pam Mahon and JeffGorham) and therapist Ernie Cusack(Garland Lyons) and his wife, a cookingshow hostess named Cookie (RaniLightle).By the time Glenn and Cassie Cooper(Brian Williams and Kelly Godell)arrive, the scandal stew is boiling inthe living room as Cookie gamely preparesdinner in the kitchen.Police officers, including Bergh asOffice Pudney, get confused by theimaginative but hilariously conflictingexplanations of what has happened.“I’ve done a lot of theater but this ismy first professional show,” saidBergh. “It is hilarious!”“Rumors” runs through April 14.Tickets are $30 for adults, $27 for seniors.Discounts are offered for studentsand groups.

Her mission: to updatean entry from the outdoor poolto the shower room and enhancethe shower and to create a spa-likeenvironment in an upstairs bathroom.“Tile is so versatile. You can putit on point or on the square,” shesaid. “It can be quiet or it can supplylots of detail. There are so manyfun materials — leather, copper,petrified wood, turquoise — it alldepends on the budget.”And when it comes to budget, shesaid there are many ways to createa unique look without breaking thebank.She gets her inspiration from thearchitecture of the home and theclient’s color choices and then incorporatesthem into an original designthat matches the client. Sheavoids using trendy materials; clientsusually end up wanting tochange them soon which only addsto the expense.For the update to the pool entryBarclay used Mystic, a limestonetile.“I used limestone of different sizes.I like to have a little extra unexpectedsomething in my work,” shesaid.That extra unexpected somethingwas a runner made of the tiles leadingfrom the door into the showerroom.

Why not get a jumpon the listing surge that takes placein spring and maximize your homevalue?” Kelly said.Our real estate experts agree onthe top two reasons homeownersshould put their home on the marketbefore those daffodils start springingup in the garden.1) Spring equals more competition.Today, there are record low inventoryrates in the Portland metroarea. Buyers don’t have a lot ofchoices to consider, which will makeyour home stand out.“As you arrive in spring, manymore families will put their homeson the market to sell and close rightafter school is out in June. Whyfight with them for buyers? I ambringing homes on the market insome neighborhoods right now withless than two weeks of listing inventoryto compete with. That willchange with a vengeance come Apriland May,” said Bob Ulery, The HassonCompany.Steve Ticknor, Summa Real EstateGroup, advises sellers to also considerthe new construction market.“New construction is beginning topick back up so there will be morecompetition against new homes aswe move into the spring and summer.Educated sellers that placetheir homes on the market now atcompetitive prices can expect a salebefore the spring selling seasoneven arrives,” Ticknor said.2) Mortgage rates are at or nearall-time lows. Will it last? Maybe,maybe not, cautions Ulery.“There are many buyers in themarket right now who qualify becauseof these low rates. If rates riseeven one point it will squeeze manybuyers out of the market and therewill be an adjustment period thatwill slow down sales,” Ulery noted.Clunes agreed. “Buyers are veryanxious to lock in these wonderfullow interest rates and purchase atthese prices. I have seen many buyersmake full cash offers.”PMAR is Oregon’s largest local Realtorassociation.

People who are in a position tochange course and begin moving in a new direction, withoutany real warning or preparation, are sure to have somethingof an advantage at this time. There's not going to be a lot offanfare associated with the doors that open this week; they'llsimply open quietly, admitting those who have been payingattention -- those who are able to sever just enough ties topursue a new set of goals with a certain amount of abandon.Indeed, commitment is everything this week. Those who cancommit can win -- those who cannot, cannot. Period.The more industrious one is, the more he or she willenjoy the fruits of his labors; now is no time for spinning yourwheels or otherwise engaging in mere busywork. Those incharge know the difference between productivity and themere show of it -- and only the former can really lead toanything at this time.HOW TO PLAY: Each row, column and set of 3-by-3 boxesmust contain the numbers 1 through 9 without repetition.SOPHIE: I’m sweet andflirtatious.
