September 16, 2005 Local bartender pitches in at ‘Ground Zero’ The man had suffered serious lacerations on his arm during Hurricane Katrina and in the days it took him to reach medical care, the cuts had developed gangrene and he’d become severely dehydrated. In 108-degree weather with 90 percent humidity, Chris Garvey helped treat the man at a makeshift hospital in Gulfport, Miss., on Thursday. Front page of today's printed Daily Tidings Listing of local efforts to assist victims of Katrina Guard goes to work in deserted city streets Elements of the 1st Battalion 186th Infantry (“Guardians”) of the 41st Brigade Combat Team (BCT), Oregon Army National Guard, headquartered in Ashland, are slowly moving into the “recovery phase” of their operation, after spending the last week searching on foot and by boat for survivors, residents ready to evacuate, and human remains. Home gutted by early morning fire Just before 2 a.m. today, the woman living in the three-bedroom house called 911 and said her roof was on fire. A bountiful community harvest The colors and flavors of late summer in the Ashland Community Gardens on Hersey Street are in full bloom. One of the Ashland Community Gardens' cats strolls through the planting plots.   Off The Vine Technology can’t change the weather       Food & History Independent Belgium came late       Commentary Bush, bedeviled       Marketing Today Guarantees guarantee increased success       Essentially Ashland Awash in administrative froth       Tales From The Crib Don’t fall for the white bread scam FOOTBALL Raiders look to bounce back Face another team on the rise in Humboldt State Hemphill Prep Cross Country Hemphill cruises to SOC win Ashland High senior wins SOC pre-district race   — Guest Forum Listening skills of administration reveal perspectives It’s not listening to what someone is saying to you that’s most important, but rather listening to what you are saying that’s enlightening. Are we really supposed to apologize for this? After reading Isaac Walker’s letter of Aug. 31, let me apologize for wanting there to be a State of Israel. From the Right Side The UNcivil war Mike Green Underneath all of the hype, stigma, dogma and propaganda, there is a war going on in America. It isn’t the “war on terror,” but rather the battle of the secular faithful (or as I call them, the anti-religious) versus the religious faithful (a.k.a. kooks) over the soul of this nation. This battle is the backdrop for seemingly endless political fights over such issues as abortion and gay marriage. — Letters (today's print edition) — CASE IN POINT Contemporary Religion: Despite what the polls suggest, what do we really believe? The fastest growing category identified in the Newsweek survey was “spirituality,” especially among those younger then 60. ... it would not be much of a stretch to conclude that America is going through a spiritual/religious renaissance of sorts. RESPONSES TO CASE IN POINT — Obituaries — Police Movies | T.V. | Calendar Stories updated by 5 p.m. Thursdays ( Back issues available ) ‘Five Course Love’ shows alternate angles on affection Picture five different restaurants, each with its own kind of food and music to go along with it. Picture five sets of lovers (played by a cast of three) meeting in the restaurants, exchanging glances across the table. Sounds like a recipe for true romance. But add a dose of speed-dating madness, personal agendas and impossible pairings and you’ve got the recipe for “Five Course Love,” Oregon Cabaret Theatre’s new musical comedy, which opens Friday. Angermann The Geometry of artistic expression André Angermann (pronounced with a soft “a” and “g”), or Brighteyes as he is known locally, was born in Poland and raised there and in Germany. In 1982 he moved to the United States; last year, he moved to Talent, where he began creating his sacred geometry designs. Spragg’s ‘An Unfinished Life’ rich with characters It’s pure coincidence that Kent Haruf’s “The Ties that Bind” was recently reviewed in these pages. And now along comes a novel, “An Unfinished Life,” reminiscent not only of “Ties” but of Haruf’s other two well-received and well-written novels, “Plainsong” and “Eventide.” Movie Reviews: Now playing 'The rain falls on the just and the unjust alike' The devastation wrought by Hurricane Katrina has me thinking back to Ashland’s New Year’s 1997 flood. Oh, I know, that was a walk in Lithia Park compared to what our southern brothers and sisters are going through right now. Word comes, as I write this, that thousands are feared dead. Few if any expected waters to rise like they have or to wreak such grave havoc.
