In France, a curious thing is happening: People are clamoring for an unglamorous American food. "Le hamburger," as it's called, has bombarded restaurants in the country otherwise known for much fancier food, becoming one of the most popular dishes. The love is such that three-quarters of all food establishments now sell at least one hamburger, and 80 percent of those say it's their best-selling item, according to a recent study. But France's hamburger fixation is hardly unique. Rather, it's embl

If Medford mom Kristin Flanary had any doubts about the magic of Christmas after her two sons' bikes were stolen this week, a Medford police officer put them to rest.

Her children's bikes, skateboards, scooters and other items had been stolen multiple times in the year-and-a-half since they moved to an apartment complex off Medford's Progress Drive. "I couldn't be

On Super Bowl Sunday, while the rest of the universe was consuming 7-layer dip and chili dogs, our main appetizer was a feast of freshly steamed soft shell clams that had been dwelling in the Yaquina estuary near Newport a mere 24 hours earlier. The canny clammer, our friend Paul, had pulled them from the briny depths himself, tumbled them into a bucket filled with fresh sea water, then tended to them throughout the day, changing the water frequently as the clams purged themselves of their sandy

ASHLAND — Lakota Vaughan straps his feet onto a small board with a 50-foot hose attached to it and starts playing superhero over the waters of Emigrant Lake. The other end of the hose is attached to his cousin's personal watercraft, which doesn't fly across the lake surface like it normally does. Instead, the jet motor sends 1,000 psi of water up that hose and out near Vaughan's feet, hurtling him skyward 40 feet above the surface for a series of flips and spins. "You really do feel

Rogue Valley elk hunters looking to improve on the region's 1-in-20 success rate ought to think about going low and on private lands where they're in the know. As elk numbers decline and hunter numbers remain high on upper-elevation public lands, hunters should try to take advantage of the ever-growing Roosevelt elk herds on lower-elevation private lands around area cities. "Most hunters flock to the Forest Service lands, and there are elk to be had," says Mark Vargas, the Oregon Department of F

Volunteers turned out in droves last weekend to help rebuild the playground at Medford’s Bear Creek Park. But the project could use more helpers, so Medford Parks and Recreation officials have issued a call to action. Director Rich Rosenthal said about half of those who had signed up online or at the work site to help actually showed up. For the project to meet its completion schedule of Saturday afternoon, Rosenthal said, more volunteers will be needed immediately, particularly for Thursday and

Citing “significant financial losses” from this summer’s wildfire smoke, the Oregon Shakespeare Festival said Wednesday it had laid off 16 employees and reduced hours for another.

In keeping with the oral traditions of the First Nation People, Agnes Baker Pilgrim has shared the legacy of her Takelma ancestors at sacred salmon ceremonies along the Applegate and Rogue rivers for the better part of two decades. "The old ones used to believe that salmon were people who looked like us, the two-legged,” she tells those who gather at river’s edge. “They lived in beautiful cities beneath the ocean floor.

When gray wolf OR-7 made his historic and famous trek from northeastern Oregon to find a mate and territory of his own, the lone wolf wandered well over 1,000 miles throughout Southern Oregon and even Northern California before he finally found what he was looking for in remote eastern Jackson County. These days, he might be thinking the neighborhood is getting a little crowded. A new draft report on Oregon's wolves concludes that OR-7, his mate and four offspring remain the only official wolf p

In his first book, "Soft Targets," published 32 years ago, Ashland author Dean Ing wrote about an Arab terrorist attacking New York City skyscrapers from an airplane. If that's not irony enough, to celebrate the book his publisher took him out to a lavish dinner atop the World Trade Center. At 80, the irrepressible Ing, a self-taught engineer and designer, looks back on a life with 23 published books and scores of inventions that he refused to patent, most of them having something to do with fly
