The activity of the past several days, which included Friday’s Civil War game between Oregon and Oregon State, other key college and pro rivalry games and Monday night’s NFL game featuring the Seattle Seahawks, underscored the impact sports plays in attracting customers to local establishments. The translation is big bucks — or at the very least a giant spike in profits for local businesses relying on sports to help foot the bill. “It can be difficult to quantify in an exact number what sports does for us, but obviously sports has a huge impact,” said Matthew Retoske, manager of Chinook Winds Casino Resort’s Aces Sports Bar and Grill at the hotel’s golf course in North Lincoln City. Several factors weigh heavily on sports bars’ success, but the label can also have negative connotations. Look

NLFR moves to ensure compliance
no further than the planned closure this week of BK Mulligan’s Sports Bar on Highway 101 in the middle of town for evidence (see story Page A6). “We’re either empty or packed,” said Desiree Garding, who owns Mulligan’s along with her mother and dad. “The drawback is lot of people who really aren’t into sports don’t bother coming in, so it can be good and bad,” Garding’s mother said. Fellow sports bar owners can relate, but not all are even convinced they own a sports bar despite the insistence of their customers. “We do a lot more food than we do alcohol, so I really never considered us a sports bar until a couple of years ago when we put TVs in and now every time we read reviews or answer the phone people say sports bar, so I guess, yeah, we’re a sports bar, even though we’re really a restaurant,” said Mark Szabo, owner of Szabo’s Steakhouse & Seafood north of Newport off Highway 101. “I guess when you have 12 TVs and offer all kinds of packages, that makes you a
sports bar.” Not that Szabo is complaining. He says he has relied on his food and service to build his restaurant’s glowing local reputation, but that sports is of major significance when it comes to putting people in the seats. “It’s a double-edged sword,” he said. “Even though people can see games at home, they still come in here to see TV and have a good time because we have that reputation of being a sporting place with really good food and service. With sports, we try to hit all three dimensions on that.” Chinook Winds Food & Beverage Director Dean Konecny knows the feeling. “It’s very critical to our success to have both the size and the scope of the type of business that we do,” he said. “Whether it’s event-type menus or a standard-type menu, we’re really trying to cater more and more to the pub crowd, the sports crowd. As an overall property amenity, this kind of fills a void that is currently nonexistent over at the casino. Couple that with the golf course and it’s become quite the place See SPORTS, Page A6
Even though North Lincoln Fire & Rescue District #1 (NLFR) is considered a volunteer fire district, the volunteers are eligible for compensation. But under a new system approved by the NLFR board, part of that compensation, a stipend program, has been discontinued to prevent the District from violating state and federal regulations. NLFR volunteer firefighters had been receiving compensation from two District funds —a $170,000 annual stipend budget and the District’s Length of Service Award Program (LOSAP) budgeted at about $70,000 annually, as incentive and rewards. But a few months ago, NLFR received a notice from the Oregon Public Employees Retirement System (PERS) that it was increasing its review and enforcement of employee contribution laws. That notice triggered concern and action by NLFR Chief Don Baker to make certain the District was in compliance with state and federal regulations. “Other agencies had struggled with the same issues and some have faced fines in the tens of thousands of dollars for not being in compliance,” said Baker. Under the NLFR stipend program, volunteer firefighters receive $4 See FIREFIGHTERS, Page A5

Memories of the Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941, are still vivid for 90-year-old Cutler City resident Ed Johann. “There were many heroes that day,” said Johann. Johann had joined the Navy months before the attack. “My dad was working in a produce packing plant making only 35 cents an hour,” said Johann. “So I quit school and joined the Navy. I made $21 a month and sent $10 of that to my father, mother and two brothers to help them make ends meet.” On the day of the attack, Johann was at Pearl Harbor. “I was in a 36-foot motor launch with a few other sailors taking men from the ships to the islands when the attack occurred,” said Johann. He said the Japanese planes came out of the sun and began dropping bombs on the U.S. ships. “The bombs were exploding and there was

Members of Troop 47 are selling Christmas trees to raise money for their Boy Scout activities.
Local Scouts become tree salesmen JEREMY C. RUARK jruark@countrymedia.net
A local Boy Scout troop hopes for lots of green this holiday season. The 17 kids that make up Troop 47 have filled up an empty lot at 3rd Street and Highway 101 in Lincoln City with Christmas trees as a fundraising project. “We do this each year to help pay for the Scout’s activities,” said Scout Jon Cabal. “We usually do an activity in the snow after we sell these trees. Last year we went snowshoeing. This time we hope to go cross country skiing.” The Scouts purchase the trees from a tree farm near Newport. Their lot is filled with a variety of Christmas trees, including Nobles and Douglas firs. “We have a lot of trees,” said Jon Cabal. “The prices range from $20 to $40.” Roy Cabal, Scout leader and Jon’s father, said the troop collected about $3,500 from last season’s Christmas tree sales. He said the project offers a good learning experience for each of the Scouts. “By selling these trees the boys learn about salesmanship,” said Cabal. “They also learn responsibility with money handling, and
it teaches them a lot about trees themselves.” Jon Cable said he has developed his own sales strategy. “I usually ask each customer what kind of tree they are looking for, “ he said. “Do they want a tall tree or a small tree? I also ask what price range they have in mind.” To keep warm, the Scouts have set up a tent next to their tree lot com-

Much to Rudy’s dissatisfaction, he became an indoor cat. After all, in Rudy’s mind, he remained the cat to contend with. Rudy made it clear he wanted to be outside. He attempted to escape whenever the door was opened. I began carrying him outside for fresh air. I would take him in my arms for walks around our wooded yard. Together, we observed from the porch the jays and robins plucking worms from our lawn. I would sit with Rudy quietly purring on my lap. Under his chin I could feel the golf ball-sized lump that was his massive thyroid. His little heart beat nearly two hundred times a minute in response to the hormones raging through his body. I watched the wind blow through the tufts of fur in Rudy’s soft gray ears. Twenty-four months after Rudy’s diagnosis he weighed less than five pounds. The light went out in his gorgeous green eyes.

Tips for a safe winter By Sheriff Dennis Dotson
Christmas tree safety tips • Choose a tree with fresh, green needles that do not fall off when touched. • Cut 1-2” off the trunk of the tree before placing in the stand. • Make sure the tree is at least 3 feet away from a
heat source. • Add water daily to the tree stand. • Never use lit candles near a tree or as decoration. • Always turn off the Christmas tree lights before leaving home or going to bed. • If you have an artificial tree, make sure it is fire retardant.
Winter sports safety • Skiing and Snowboarding: Take lessons and wear a helmet! Stay on marked trails and always go with a buddy. • Sledding: Find a good hill where you won’t run into something at the bottom. Sit up with feet forward. Make sure an adult is with you. • Ice Skating: Don’t use the neighborhood pond. Stick to public indoor and
outdoor skating rinks. Wear a helmet. • For all winter sports: Dress in layers and wear a hat. Even on cold days, the sun can burn you. Drink water and wear sunscreen. • Don’t walk on a frozen pond.
Poison Control, 800-222-1222 • Carbon Monoxide (CO) poisoning: an odorless, colorless, poisonous gas created from burning fuel. Install a CO detector in your home. Don’t use the oven, gas range or unattended space heaters for heating your home. • Holly berries, mistletoe and poinsettias can be poisonous if swallowed.
• Keep ornaments out of reach of children and pets. Some ornaments may contain lead or have sharp edges if broken. Snow globes contain dangerous ingredients. • Swallowing hazards: any small object that can fit through a toilet paper roll. • Children are curious. Secure all medications, cosmetics and cleaning products when children are visiting.

Give a Damn Day Counterfeit money alert JEREMY C. RUARK jruark@countrymedia.net
Les Schwab Tire Center, Elks Club and KBCH-AM (1400) have teamed to challenge residents to air their challenge of sponsorship of a Christmas turkey for needy families his holiday season.
Local businesses, employees and families are being asked to pledge $15 for a holiday turkey and challenge others to do the same with a matching pledge on the air from 7 a.m. to noon Monday, Dec. 9, on 1400-AM.
Call in your challenge to 541-994-2181, fax to 541994-2004 or email kbchradio@charter.net to help feed local families. For every pledge of $15, the Elks will donate a turkey to needy family.
Firefighters for each call they respond to and for taking part in drills, $100 for a performing a 24hour shift, and other limited compensation for personal vehicle fuel and phones. About 17 of the volunteer firefighters participate under the stipend program at different levels. Forty NLFR volunteers participate only in the LOSAP program. LOSAP has been a taxdeferred contribution that the District gives to volunteer firefighters as incentives or rewards. The maximum contribution is $3,000. There is no obligation for the District or the District Board to make the contribution. Depending on the District budget, the volunteers might or might not receive the contribution. Historically, under LOSAP, the District has given from $600 to $1,200 annually when a volunteer meets training standards and they respond to 100 calls for service during the year. The District Board reviews the standards each year and awards the contribution. The money is part of the general obligation budget for the District and is separate from the stipend program. On Nov. 11, Baker met with the NLFR volunteers to outline heighten concerns he had about the stipend program jeopardizing the Districts compliance with regulations and why it was necessary to discontinue it. On Nov.12, Baker met with the NLFR board during a public meeting and recommended that the stipend program be discontinued. During the board review, volunteer firefighter Marc McPherson predicted that several of the volunteers who depend on the compensation would leave the agency if the payments were discontinued. “I will stay, but I won’t be pulling 24-hour shifts anymore,” said McPherson. “There has to be some type of compensation if you are taking us away from our families to respond to the calls for service.” McPherson said several of the firefighters have been divorced because of the time they’ve put into volunteering. “Don’t let yourself be regulated out a fire department,” he said. McPherson suggested the

board hire a professional consultant to review the compliance issues before acting on Baker’s recommendation. But the board agreed with Baker and voted to end the stipend program effect Jan. 1 and to enhance LOSAP. “First and foremost, we have to be an accountable district,” said Carol Smith, NLFR board member. Under Baker’s plan, the LOSAP contributions will be increased to make up for ending the stipend program. The contribution levels of $600 will be raised to $750 and the contribution of $1,200 increased to $1,500. “The big difference with this, and the reason that we are doing this, is this money (LOSAP) is not taxable,” said Baker. “The IRS recognizes this as a non-taxable benefit that we can give. So it is a safe harbor. The monies that we will no longer be giving (stipends) is taxable and it created, in the eyes of federal and state agencies, an employee-employer relationship.” But Baker said not all regulatory agencies viewed the contribution as a taxable contribution. “And that is part of the problem that the District faced,” said Baker. “The employee-employer relationship adds new issues about what is, and what isn’t legal, and it is a very complicated problem faced by Districts nationwide. National, regional and local fire agencies and special districts have been trying to resolve this issue for years.” The Oregon Fire Chiefs Association chartered a Task Force to review volunteer firefighter recruitment and retention, with a specific focus on reimbursement and compensation issues. “We found conflictive definitions and policies at various state and federal agencies regarding the definition and treatment of volunteers,” said Kevin Hanson, Marion County Fire District #1 fire chief. “Our 53 page report came to the conclusion that confusion exists at both the state and fed-
eral level, and that laws are not likely to change, particularly at the federal level, without a better understanding by legislators of the complexity of the rules applicable to the fire service.” Baker and Hansen said they doubled there would be mass resignations by the volunteer firefighters as the stipend programs end. “Volunteer firefighters do not volunteer the purpose of making money,” said Hansen. “They also do not volunteer to lose money. They choose to volunteer to give back to their respective communities and we want and need to look for all possible methods to incent, reward, appreciate, and reimburse our volunteers.” Hansen said the service that volunteer firefighters provide in Oregon and across the nation are “immeasurable and often unappreciated.” Baker said the changes in the compensation system should not impact District services to the public, but by discontinuing the stipend program, he said the District would minimize the potential risk of being fined for not being in compliance with state and federal regulations.

and their employees need to take the time necessary to carefully examine the paper currency they take in,” said Winn. “Suspects look for retail shops that are busy. They purchase an item with the counterfeit bills, get change and leave quickly.” Winn said often an unsuspecting customer will pass a bogus bill that he or she got in change at another retailer. “So it’s often difficult to get a description of the true suspect,” he said. The bogus $20 bill found at the casino will be sent to the U.S. Secret Service. On Oct. 3, the Warrenton Police Department issued a Merchants Alert after responding to Staples, at 1629 S.E. Ensign Lane, regarding counterfeit bills. According to investigators, a women purchased several items at the Staples Store with counterfeit bills. The counterfeit bills used were four $20 bills and five $10 bills. Investigators said the printing on the bills was good, but the paper used was noticeably not.

Marc Roemer is at it again. For the past eight years, Roemer, a bartender at Shucker’s Oyster Bar, at 4814 S.E. Highway 101 in Lincoln City, has donated 100 percent of his tips on Give a Damn Day to help raise money to purchase clothing for local teens as Christmas presents. This year, Give a Damn Day is Dec. 8 and Roemer will again give all his tips to the clothing fund. Roemer estimates he’s collected about $30,000 since he began the project eight years ago.
Lincoln City Police are urging retailers to carefully examine paper currency they are taking in after a counterfeit $20 bill was discovered at Chinook Winds Casino Resort last week. “It was likely found during a cash count,” said Sgt. Jeffrey Winn with Lincoln City Police. “The casino security confiscated the bill and contacted us. But at this time, we don’t have any indication that there is any particular suspect or that this bill is linked to others recently passed along the Oregon Coast.” Winn said it is not uncommon to see counterfeit bills at the casino, usually $50 and $100 bills. “The counterfeit $20 bills are showing up more, especially at smaller retailers, due to the fact that many businesses are not taking the larger bills because they don’t want to get into counterfeit money,” said Winn. “And suspects have more opportunity to pass the bogus 20s.” Winn described the counterfeit $20 bill as a bit odd looking. “It didn’t have the security stripe that goes down the side of a regular bill,” he said. “It also has a dark mark, like someone tried to place one of those counterfeit detecting pens on the bill, but those pens leave a much lighter mark. Also, the President’s head on the bill did not look right.” Winn said store employees should be able to feel the difference between a counterfeit bill and the real thing. “The fibers on a real bill gives the money a different feel than regular paper,” he said. “With the holiday shopping season here, businesses

Pearl Harbor bodies were very slippery.” But Johann and others worked hard to rescue as many of the wounded as possible and took them to a nearby hospital ship. The planes came right out of the sun and kept dropping the bombs and they’d pull up into the heavy, black smoke so you couldn’t see them,” said Johann. “We never did get hit. It was pure luck that we got out. There was no skill involved, but there were many heroes that day.” The attack lasted less than two hours, but claimed 2,500 people and wounded 1,000 others, damaged or destroyed 18 American ships and nearly 300 airplanes. Johann can’t forget the death he saw during the attack. “I was just a 17-year-old kid and had never seen a dead body, let alone body parts,” he said. “It was an awakening for me.” Following the attack, there were rumors that the Japanese would return for another attack. But they did not come back. “It was a good thing they never came back,” said Johann. “Because there were several large fuel tanks on the hills just sitting there. Had the Japanese hit those tanks with their bombs that would have been a tremendous loss because those tanks had fuel for our ships.” Johann has been back to Pearl Harbor twice since the attack. “I didn’t want to return for

I didn’t know how I would handle being there, but a ship came by with all the sailors at attention and they were saluting us. That helped me and it impressed me.” For his heroism, Johann was awarded a medal and certificate from Benjamin Perlman, the Commanding Officer of the U.S.S. Wright. The certificate reads: “For distinguished devotion to duty and extraordinary courage and disregard of your own safety during the attack on the U.S. Pacific Fleet in Pearl Harbor by Japanese forces on December 7, 1941.

Restaurant and bar owners agree that college football, even more than the NFL, which is generally available on cable and satellite channels at home, outweighs all other sports, including the NFL, in its ability to draw consistently bigger crowds. “Oregon is so into their college teams, so it makes a huge impact,” Roll said. “If it wasn’t for football, we wouldn’t have been in business.” The addition of the popularity and success of the Portland Timbers and Portland Trail Blazers have also helped local establishments.

Stabbing, barricade incident leads to arrest JEREMY C. RUARK jruark@countrymedia.net
One man was arrested after Lincoln City Police were called to 907 S.W. 48th St. early Nov. 28 to an alleged robbery. According to a Lincoln City Police Sgt. Jeffrey Winn, homeowner Westly Ratcliff, 31, allowed acquaintance Christopher Guzman, 25, into his house, and soon after the two began to argue. “The argument was apparently over money and property and Ratcliff allegedly stabbed Guzman during the incident,” said Winn. “Guzman left the house and Ratcliff barricaded himself in the home and called police to report a robbery.” Lincoln City Police officers responded to the area, and as they began to investigate, a male subject
barricaded himself inside the residence and refused to come to the door. While trying to get the subject to come to the door, officers noticed a substantial amount of blood at the scene that led them to believe Westly Ratcliff that someone at the residence was seriously injured and in need of medical attention. Police believed the man inside the home was Ratcliff. “We attempted to contact him several times over the police car’s loud speaker and asked him to come out of the house,” said Winn. “He would not
come out.” Other officers arrived at the scene including Newport Police, Lincoln County Sheriff’s deputies and Oregon State Police. “Because we thought there might be someone inside the house gravely injured, we decided to make forced entry into the home,” said Winn. Officers were able to locate Ratcliff and take him into custody. Ratcliff had a number of warrants for his arrest from Benton County and was taken into custody. Ratcliff did not have severe injuries that were consistent with the amount of blood found at the scene and he was uncooperative with investigating officers, spitting in the face of a sheriff deputy, according to Winn. Due to the appearance of the scene and the belief that someone was seriously injured, the Lincoln
County Major Crimes Team was activated and members responded to further investigate. During the subsequent investigation, the male subject who had been stabbed was located and identified as Christopher Guzman, 25, of Lincoln City. It was determined Guzman had a serious, but non life-threatening stab wound to his arm. Ratcliff was transported to the Lincoln County Jail and lodged on the Benton County warrants for fail to appear on a DUII, fail to appear disorderly conduct, fail to appear harassment, and fail to return suspended license. In addition he was charged with harassment for spitting on a deputy. Anyone with additional information should contact Lincoln City Police Detective Brett Rudolph at 541-994-3636.

With just two seniors and no returning starters, first-year Taft High basketball coach Scott Henderson won’t be the only one learning on the job this season when the Tigers open their season at 7 p.m. tonight at Banks. “I think the new people will all make a impact on this year’s performance,” Henderson said. “They are all hard-working kids and ready to work and improve to make Taft basketball better.” While the Tigers are unproven at the varsity level and lack depth and height, Henderson said he hopes to turn rebounding into a strength. The Tigers varsity will be comprised of senior guards Henry Lahti and Tanner Henson, junior forwards Pete Lahti, Cecil Harvey, Ian Williams and Randy Herndon, and freshman guard Christian Chase. “I think we will be a very hard-working basketball team, and with some intense defense, I think we are going to surprise some people and frustrate them with how hard we play,” he said. Taft will need almost instant and constant development if it hopes to improve on last season’s 7-16 record and 0-10 Oregon West Confer-
ence mark. “Our goal is to not worry about the win-loss record. That will take care of itself,” Henderson said. “Our record will come from if we outwork our opponent or not.” The Tigers’ new coach, who replaced Mark Williams, who resigned, said he likes what he’s seen in the first couple of weeks of practice. “The first few weeks have been great,” he said. “The kids are working hard and are wanting to get better. These are some of the hardest working kids that I’ve had at any program I have taken over.” Henderson said he expects the team to have its hands full when it opens Oregon West play Jan. 21 at home against Stayton. “The Oregon West will be a tough conference and all the teams in it are good,” he said. “Taft will be the underdog, which is fine with me because my kids and I understand with our hard work and effort, we are going to surprise some people. We want people to watch us play and say, ‘Wow, those kids work hard and we don’t want to play them again.’ That’s the ultimate compliment.”
With his most promising season lying in wait, Taft girls basketball coach Dan Mock has several reasons to expect promising returns from his team. Mock said the Tigers would rely greatly on returning senior Taylor Adams, the team’s leading scorer last year, when it opens its season tonight at 7 p.m. at home against Tillamook “She figures to be an integral part of what we will do,” he said. Mock said he also welcomes the return of senior post player Keitra Mason, who figures to have a significant impact with an additional year of experience. Also returning with varsity experience are point guards Nicole Vasquez and Kelsey Wilkinson. And junior Kendra Knudson provides depth at both post positions, Mock said. Two key additions are expected to be juniors BillyAnn Stempel and Katie McCardell, who star on the school’s volleyball and softball teams. “They are two of the more
athletic girls in our school, and their addition to our team will only make us better,” Mock said. “Their athleticism and height are things that our team can certainly use.” At the very least, Taft’s improved athleticism could provide the team with its first league win following a winless Oregon Conference season a year ago, when it finished 3-20 overall. “I think the athleticism we have in our starting lineup will be one of our strengths,” Mock said. “The combination of height and athleticism we have will allow us to do some things on both ends of the floor that we must be able to do in order to be more competitive.” However, inexperience could slow the team early when it opens its season against the Cheesemakers, he said. “One challenge facing us is that our collective group of starters is relatively inexperienced in terms of playing basketball together and being familiar with each others’ tendencies,” Mock said. “We will have to practice and play
Girls Basketball
ourselves into a place of greater familiarity with one another. “Another challenge is the youth and inexperience of our bench. Outside of Kendra Knudson, our bench is relatively young with minimal varsity experience.” Mock said he is encouraged his team will be prepared by Jan. 21, when it opens its league season at home against Stayton “I’m excited for our prospects this season,” he said. “I have a good group of young ladies to work with and we have as athletic of a varsity group as I’ve coached since I was hired. My primary concerns right now are along the lines of how long it will take for our group to jell together on the basketball court.” Mock said coming together as a team will be key in the school’s final season in the Class 4A Oregon West before dropping down to the 3A West Valley League next season. “It will continue to be a tough challenge,” he said. “It will be interesting where in the mix we will find ourselves when it is all said and done.” For rosters and schedules go to thenewsguard.com.

Howard and Canon U.S.A. Inc. called Project Imaginat10n. Canon and Howard, director of box-office smashes such as Backdraft, Apollo 13 and The Da Vinci Code, asked contestants across the country to submit photographs on 10 themes to spark the imaginations of his moviemaking team. Swanson’s photo of three whale kites taken at the Lincoln City Kite Festival emerged victorious. The winning entries in each category then served as the inspiration for 10 short films in what Canon described as “the
first photography-inspired film festival in history.” The directors for the first five films were Longoria and Foxx, Twitter co-founder Biz Stone, LCD Soundsystem founder James Murphy, and fashion designer Georgina Chapman, co-founder of Marchesa. Swanson, who moved to Roads End in 2005 after retiring from teaching in Houston and Mexico, learned of the contest on Facebook and entered as many categories as she could, See KITES, Page B3

Trees, evening ball light up lives of needy JIM FOSSUM sports@thenewsguard.com
Fifteen years of extended effort and another year of dedicated service this season will make a group of event organizers feel like kids on Christmas morning when “The Fantasy of Trees” and “The Song of the Angels” holiday ball are held this week at Chinook Winds Casino Resort. Teaming to benefit Angels Anonymous with the group’s biggest annual fundraiser, civic volunteers and event founders Jim Davis, Mike Holden, Roger Spraque and Roger Robertson
have again combined their efforts in brightening up the living rooms of several fortunate bidders and the lives of numerous local families in need. Generating between $18,000 to a high of $34,000 from the events, the longtime tree festival and Saturday evening function are expected to draw as many as 300 local participants, Davis, a local builder, said. “It’s just fulfilling to help other people, up to 50 to 60 families right in this area, so that’s why we do this,” he said. Area resident Julie McBee is in her 12th year of participating
in the event. Formerly a boutique and wine shop owner, she saw the function as an opportunity to pay back the community and express herself while doing it. “It was easy for me to decorate and donate a tree,” said McBee, who now handles much of the paperwork for the event. “I’m all for giving during the holiday, so the satisfaction for me is contributing to the community. It makes me feel good. What can I say?” The event, scheduled See TREES, Page B3

Holiday favorites For years, Wife Sally’s favorite confection was Mexican Chews, a buttery caramel pecan candy made by Van Duyn’s in Portland. A variation on the traditional pecan log roll, it was chewier, more buttery and always fresher. Suddenly, in the 1980s, it became harder and harder to find, until it finally disappeared. Then one day, by chance, we learned from our next door neighbor of 20 years, that his father had retired as the chief candy-maker for Van Duyn. And, yes, he believed he could get Sally the recipe. After several weeks, the sacred scroll was passed over the back fence. Sally, with visions of sugar plums dancing, raced to her kitchen to begin compiling her shopping list. Let’s see, … 7 pounds corn syrup, 5 pounds sugar, 1 gallon 22 percent sweet cream, 12 pounds chopped pecans…
CHOCOLATE ENGLISH TOFFEE BARS This is an easy recipe for sweet gifting, and the ingredient amounts should be workable.
1 package chocolate wafer cookies 1 ½ cups almonds, sliced 1 cup unsalted butter 1 cup brown sugar, firmly packed 1 ½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips Layer an 11 x 17 cookie sheet, with sides, with the chocolate wafers, cut to fit snugly. Sprinkle with the sliced almonds and set aside. Combine butter and brown sugar in a saucepan and bring to a low boil, stirring constantly to incorporate the butter. Pour in a thin stream over the almond/wafer base. Place sheet in 350 degree F. oven for eight minutes until bubbly all over the top. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with chocolate chips. As chips melt, run fork tines through to spread and make designs. Set on counter to cool; cut into squares.
CREAMY MINT PATTIES 2 lbs. white almond bark 1 cube butter 1 ½ cups crushed peppermint candy Melt white almond bark in top of double boiler. Do not add water; it will curdle the bark. Stir for about 10 minutes to melt thoroughly; mixture will become quite thick. Crush peppermint sticks or hard candies. Meanwhile, line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil. Mix crushed candies with melted almond bark. Spread on cookie sheet. Let dry and chop into irregular pieces.
EGGNOG ANGEL CAKE 1 10-inch angel food cake
¼ lb. butter 2 cups powdered sugar, not sifted 3 egg yolks 2 teaspoons vanilla 1/3 cup milk ¼ teaspoon brandy flavoring ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg 2 cups heavy cream 2 Tablespoons powdered sugar Strawberries for garnish Cut cake into four layers. For the filling, cream together the butter and 2 cups powdered sugar until light. Blend in egg yolks, 1 teaspoon of the vanilla, the brandy flavoring and nutmeg. Spread filling between cake layers. When preparing to serve, whip cream until stiff; flavor with the remaining vanilla and 2 teaspoons powdered sugar. Frost top and sides of cake. Chill. Garnish with berries. Happy holidays!

The shot emerged from more than 5,000 entries in the “Relationship” category to make a list of 30 finalists. The job of whittling those down to seven winners, which ranged from ages 16 to 67, fell to the public via the Internet.

Boats even fireworks or live music on board. Prizes are awarded through donations from neighbors throughout the Newport community. The parade features a variety of watercraft, including Coast Guard search and rescue vessels, charter boats, fishing boats, sailboats and sea kayaks. Fran Mathews, coowner of Marine Discovery Tours, and her husband, Don, a retired sea crab-
ber, first launched the boat parade in 1999 ,as a fun way to celebrate the holidays and raise money for charity. Funds collected from passengers riding aboard the decorated boats will be donated to Canned Cancer. Marine Discovery Tours, located at Anchor Pier, 345 S.W. Bay Blvd., in Newport, charges $35 for adults and $15 for youth to board and ride the decorated boats. For more information, contact Marine Discovery Tours at 541-265-6200.
Wednesday, Dec. 4, through Saturday, Dec. 7, provides Angels Anonymous, a local nonprofit charitable organization, with immediate and basic assistance to those in need in North Lincoln County. The program helps those who have exhausted all avenues of assistance to meet immediate and basic short-term needs. “It’s our main fundraiser and one of only dress-up functions in this town,” Davis said. “I’m proud of what all our volunteers have done.” Approximately 30 trees, sponsored by local businesses and individuals who spend hundreds of dollars for the ornaments and hours decorating, will be on display at this year’s exhibit. In past years, the themes of the trees have included Betty Boop, firemen, Harry Potter, chocolates, peacocks, roses, ballerinas, fishing, old-fashioned Christmas, hand-carved ornaments, and many splendidly trimmed in specific colors. This year, McBee plans to put up a tree of collectible red and lime green frogs for bid for around $1,900. Trees — both real and artificial — are decorated with various themes each holiday season.

Next thing you know, days of anticipation and 100,000 photo entries later, Swanson found herself buzzing around Manhattan in a stretch limo to appear on the red carpet at the premier event at the Lincoln Center for Performing Arts on Broadway. “I constantly look for something to take a picture of, and if I don’t get a good picture I’m almost depressed,” Swanson said. “I don’t know whether that sounds crazy at all, but …” No crazier than a cheesy coffee mug for a prize, she’ll tell you.
