Payne County jail death prompts two state billsBy Anita [email protected]

Ron duBois is determined tomake it so his son didn’t die invain, and two bills in the stateLegislature are working to thatend.

Rep. Cory Williams, D-Still-water, and Sen. Jim Halligan, R-Stillwater, drafted two bills that,if passed, would bring medicinaland structural reforms to countyjails in Oklahoma.

Halligan’s bill, SB 854, wouldrequire medical staff at jails to“be particularly aware throughhis or her training of the impactof opiate or methadone with-drawal symptoms that mayoccur in regard to the mentaland physical health of the pris-oner.”

Williams’ bill, HB 2112,would mandate, “stainless steelmesh screening to be installed inany area of a jail facility thatwould allow access by an in-mate to a fall of greater thaneight (8) feet.”

The bills are scheduled forfirst reading in their respectivehouses at the state Capitol Feb.7.

DuBois’ son, Peter duBois,died July 23, 2010, after fallingabout 12 feet in the Payne Coun-ty Jail. Peter duBois went over a4-foot railing. The state medicalexaminer’s office has said thecause of death was suicide. AnOklahoma State Bureau of In-vestigation agent has been look-ing into the death.

DuBois was sentenced July16 to seven years in prison for

failing to comply with the rulesof the Payne County DrugCourt. He pleaded guilty in May

2009 to a charge of attemptingto obtain a controlled and dan-gerous substance — methadone— by fraud. According to an ar-rest warrant affidavit, In Sep-tember 2008, Peter duBois gavea pharmacist a prescription withthe signature of a dead doctor.

He was sentenced to drugcourt as part of a 15-year sus-pended sentence. Rob duBoissaid his son tried to go to thera-py in Tulsa as required by thedrug court but he got in a carwreck while en route.

Ron duBois said in July PeterduBois was chemically depend-ent on methodone prior to enter-ing the Payne County Jail.Payne County Sheriff R.B. Haufhas said, to his knowledge, noinmate has ever been givenmethadone while in the jail.

Hauf did not return calls forcomment about the legislativebills.

SB 854Methadone is a synthetic nar-

cotic that eases symptoms asso-ciated with opiate withdrawals.Rob duBois has said he believeshis son committed suicide be-cause he couldn’t cope with thepain of withdrawal from opiates.

Ron duBois hopes prison andcounty jail physicians will even-tually prescribe methadone toinmates with a history ofmethadone use to ease the ef-fects of withdrawals.

mates like Peter duBois will not

A monster storm and a raised awareness of home-less needs have brought five more people to Still-water’s only homeless shelter, the director said.

Mission of Hope homeless shelter program Di-rector Holly Smith said one person came into theshelter on Sunday, two came in Monday night andanother person was picked up on the street and driv-en to the Mission of Hope Tuesday afternoon. Still-water Medical Center called the Mission of HopeTuesday afternoon to ask if they had room for a per-son with frostbite, bringing the total to five sinceSunday.

Smith is concerned there are more people in neednot seeking shelter. Stillwater residents called the

The Blizzard of 2011has moved on but its after-math is still disruptingStillwater lives.

After the snowstorm,high winds drifted snowand caused problemsthroughout the city.Schools and some busi-nesses remained closedtoday as snow drifts con-tinued to build throughoutTuesday evening.

About 8 inches of snowfell in Stillwater, but snowdrifts are making it diffi-cult to measure.

“We didn’t get as muchas we thought we would,”Emergency ManagementDirector Kirk Mittelstetsaid.

The wind will continueto blow the snow aroundfor a few more days, hesaid.

No more significantsnow is expected, but tem-peratures will be frigidagain today. The NationalWeather Service shows aforecast of partly cloudyWednesday night with alow of -5 F and a windchillas low -15 F. The forecastincludes winds of 6 to 11mph. Gusts at the heightof Tuesday’s blizzardtopped 45 mph.

Thursday’s forecast issunny with a high of 18 Fand a windchill as low as -17 F. Thursday will alsohave winds of 7 mph.

Canceled classes andactivities left the streets ofStillwater devoid of heavytraffic but those venturingout had problems through-out the day. Several carswere stuck near the Wal-mart entrance on PerkinsRoad Tuesday morning.Elsewhere cars and truckslittered snowdrifts as well.

Mid-morning Tuesday,Oklahoma State Universi-ty students Kyle Wilson

and Adam Tully foundthemselves mired in aparking lot on PerkinsRoad. A group of goodSamartians helped Wilsonand Tully push their pick-up out of the snow.

Tully said the two hadthemselves pulled severalstuck drivers out of snow-banks Tuesday morning.The two had also beenbringing supplies, such asa heater, to several of theirfriends around town.

Two Oklahoma Stateprofessors braved theweather to go to AspenCoffee Company. DenniBlum said she needed touse Internet service tograde papers in an onlinedigital drop box. She got aride with Matt O’Neill.

“He’s from the northand he has more experi-ence (driving in snow)than I have,” Blum said.

O’Neill, who’s fromBoston, said he’s nostranger to snow storms,“but not 40 mile per hourwind.” O’Neill was out oftown for the blizzardChristmas Eve 2009, butsaid this is the worst snowstorm he’s seen in Okla-homa in his seven yearshere.

“Usually, if the tornadosirens aren’t going off,we’re open,” said Aspenowner Kelly Lyda. He saidhe closes the cafe for se-vere ice storms, too, butTuesday’s weather is pass-able, especially for peoplewho have a four-wheeldrive vehicle. Lyda jokedhe took his four-wheeldrive truck down thestreets with the highestdrifts to avoid traffic.

Aspen employeeMichael Kraddock said hisvan was snowed in, so hewalked to work.

Staff and wire reports

Sunshine and blue skygreeted Stillwater resi-dents this morning butpiles of plowed snow andtemperatures hoveringaround zero were quick toremind that winter retainsan icy drip on the area.

Tuesday’s blizzardmoved out and on acrossthe Midwest. The NationalWeather Service predictsStillwater won’t see tem-peratures anywhere nearthe 32-degree mark until atleast Friday. And then Sat-urday night brings a slightchance of rain and snow.

Despite the winterstorm’s departure, Okla-homa is not back in busi-ness, but Will RogersWorld Airport reopenedthis morning after a 20-hour shutdown. No flightswere going in or out ofTulsa International Airporttoday.

Tulsa didn’t weather thestorm as well as someparts of the state. Tues-day’s blizzard shut downturnpikes in all directionsfrom Tulsa. The TulsaWorld did not publish a

print edition for the firsttime in the newspaper’shistory.

The Oklahoma High-way Patrol joined the Ok-lahoma National Guard inrescuing travelers fromstranded cars littering thestate’s turnpike system.The highway patrol report-ed responding to morethan 500 calls by Tuesday

evening.Some 20 inches of snow

fell on northeastern Okla-homa. In the OklahomaCity area, a woman waskilled in a sledding acci-dent on a lake.

Snow collapsed part ofthe roof at the Hard RockCasino near Tulsa.

Tuesday afternoon,Stillwater SuperintendentAnn Caine canceled theschool district’s Wednes-day classes.

If the district sees anymore inclement weatherdays before the end of theschool year, Caine said,the district has a numberof options for making upthe time. District officialswon’t decide which optionto choose until earlyMarch, she said.

Because the districtworks on a schedule of1080 hours per year ratherthan a set number of days,Caine said, district offi-cials may decide to makeup the time by addingminutes to school days, byadding days to the calen-dar or by holding classeson Saturdays.

City offices closedtoday

City of Stillwater an-nounced Tuesday after-noon that offices and facil-ities will be closed todaydue to hazardous roadconditions.

Postmaster Pam Lundaksaid United States PostalService carriers were stilldelivering mail despite theweather conditions.

“They are going to tryand make everything theycan get to safely,” shesaid.

Lundak said all 27 ofthe city carriers had beenstuck Tuesday morningand that nine of the 10rural carriers had beenstuck at least once by

Winter storm has littleaffect on powerproviders

Utilities providers saidthat they hadn’t had many

outages. Luke Driscollwith Stillwater Utilitiessaid he had only receivedone call Tuesday after-noon for a partial outage.

“It’s been pretty quiet,”he added.

“We’ve had some prettygood luck,” agreed JeffJoiner of the Central RuralElectric Cooperative.

Joiner credited the lackof ice for the few outages.He said that because thetemperature dropped sorapidly, ice didn’t havetime to build up on powerlines. Joiner said thatsoutheastern Oklahoma isdealing with many moreoutages because it got a lotmore ice from the storm.

Stillwater Regional Air-port Director Gary John-son said that crews wereable to clear the runwaythis morning. Crews werelimited in what they coulddo Tuesday because of 45-mph winds that blew blowsnow back onto runwaysand taxiways.

Smith said that the lackof walk-ins worried her.

Doctors’ DiscoveryHelps DiabeticsPHILADELPHIA — A team ofdoctors has found that a new formu-lation of exotic sounding ingredi-ents gives new hope to diabeticpatients. The formula, called Cinnatrol™promotes healthy blood sugar lev-els by effectively metabolizing glu-cose into energy. In a researchstudy, all patients taking just onecapful of the liquid (one ounce)daily, dramatically lowered theirblood sugar levels compared to aplacebo group. Another scientificstudy found that an ingredient inCinnatrol made insulin 20 timesmore capable of converting bloodsugar to energy. While individual results vary, onepatient in the study lowered hisblood sugar from 220-245 to the100-130 range in only 28 days, de-spite being instructed not to changehis dietary habits or physical ac-tivity. Some patients, under theirdoctors care, have been able to re-duce or eliminate their need for dia-betic drugs. Scientists say thatCinnatrol helps diabetic drugs towork more efficiently.. Cinnatrol is available without aprescription at pharmacies and nu-trition stores or call 1-800-339-3301. Now at:

ings anywhere there is adrop of 8 feet or more.

If the mesh wall cannotgo all the way to the ceil-ing, there should be a 90-degree bend at the top soinmates can’t climb overthe fence.

The steel mesh would

prevent inmates frombeing able to jump over arailing and it would pre-vent inmates from push-ing others over the rail-ing, Williams said.

After the first readingnext week, this bill willgo to the appropriations

Payne County Jail Ad-ministrator Reese Lanesaid a camera was onwhen duBois fell, but it

I rise (after slipping andfalling) in defense of winter.

This winter. The winter fromhell. Who knew hell was whiteand cold instead of red and fieryhot — or is this just hell actual-ly freezing over? The winter ofan endless cycle of nor’eastersevery five days or so, with nicelittle below-zero breaks. Thewinter when we’re wondering ifthe total snowfall will rise high-er than Shaquille O’Neal’s head.

I don’t know — maybe if thegroundhog doesn’t see his shad-ow and this pattern continues foranother six weeks, I’ll bescreaming for relief. But so far,every time I trudge outside toclear my way to the street again,I can’t help it. I actually smile.Every time the wind stings myface and makes my eyes water, Ithink, “Bring it on.”

I have not entirely lost mymind. I’m not crazy about localtelevision stations preemptingall the network programming sothey can give us constant re-minders of what we can learn bylooking or stepping outside. I’mmore frustrated than informedwhen they go on about windchills, the eroding supply of saltand the devastation of localsnowplowing budgets. Thosebudgets are a complete fiction

from thestart.

I’m notcrazy aboutdriving withsalt on thewindsh i e ldand little orno traction onthe roads. Iwould not bepleased if mypipes froze orif ice damscaused myroof to leak. I don’t like the idi-otic mandates that require pri-vate citizens to clear snow fromproperty that isn’t even theirs.

I’m actually a bit surprisedmyself that I like anything butskiing in this stuff, and even thatis suspect. One long-ago winterin college, I was skiing in Col-orado and it was so cold thatwhen I got to the bottom of themountain I discovered that thetip of my nose was frostbitten.Now it drips, almost constantly,in cold weather. Very attractive.

This affection is also unex-pected because I hated winterwhen I was a kid delivering pa-pers in the Midwest at 5 a.m.when it was 20 below and Icouldn’t even feel my fingerswhen I finished my route. I

don’t remember liking havingjust 20 minutes to warm upwhile eating my breakfast andthen having to stand at the busstop for 10 minutes when it wasstill 5 below. I was told that Iwas lucky that I was so young— that when I was old, winterswould be much more difficult.

So, here I am. I am hesitant toget into the socially awkwarddiscussion of defining “old,” buteven if 60 is the new 30, I amnow over 30. I have long sincequalified for “active adult” (i.e.“geezer”) housing. I could startcollecting low-end Social Secu-rity payments if I wanted to. Iget a dollar off at some of themovies. I just got an e-mail frommy high-school class about a45th reunion.

But I’m liking winter morethan ever.

Part of it is just technology.Modern cold-weather gear hasmade winter so much morecomfortable. It is almost magi-cal what “wicking” underwear,hand- and foot-warmers and lay-ers of fleece can do.

But what I really like is thatwinter eliminates some of thestuff I really hate.

Take humidity, please. Itmakes me feel sodden andlethargic, like I don’t have the

energy to walk to the car. I hatesweating through two changesof clothes just to mow the lawn.I hate trying to sleep on a hotnight. Winter takes care of allthat. It makes me feel like —well, like shoveling the drive-way, going for a hike or cross-country skiing. It makes crawl-ing under a thick comforter anexquisite pleasure.

I hate black flies. I hate green-heads. I hate mosquitoes. I hatedeer ticks. Have you seen any ofthem around for the past fewmonths?

I like that while snow blan-kets some things, it reveals oth-ers. I can tell just where theturkeys or the deer have beenduring the night. I love the cos-mic depth of the Milky Way re-vealed on a winter night.Around here, I never see thatmany stars through the vapor-laden air of summer.

I love the way the snow muf-fles the background hum of life.There is something beyondpeaceful about hearing nothingbut your own breathing and thecrunch of your boots in thesnow.

There are even a few bureau-cratic amusements that arisefrom winter. For years, everytime there has been a snowstorm

of anything more than six inchesor so, the governor would issuean order that “nonessential”workers should stay home. Theworkers never objected to that— what’s not to like about apaid day off? — until the ongo-ing financial crisis made taxpay-ers start wondering if nonessen-tial employees were, you know,nonessential.

So, now the correct term is“non-emergency.” Mr. Rogerswould approve. Everybody’sspecial and everybody’s essen-tial. All brought to you by win-ter.

Besides, just like every otherseason, winter doesn’t last for-ever. Three days from now, thesun will set at 5 o’clock. Andfrom there, our turn toward thesun accelerates. We will be backon Daylight Savings Time, thedrifts will melt, the crocuseswill push their way through therotting ice or whatever else getsin their way and we will be out-side in T-shirts and shorts.

Just remember, the black fliesand mosquitoes will be waitingfor you.

Congress shall make no law re-specting an establishment of reli-gion, or prohibiting the free exer-cise thereof; or abridging the free-dom of speech, or of the press; orthe right of the people peaceablyto assemble, and to petition thegovernment for a redress of griev-ance.

– The First Amendmentto the U.S. Constitution

As an observer of the Okla-homa Legislature for more than40 years, this writer cannotclaim to penetrate the darknessof the legislative psyche suffi-ciently to understand the think-ing (or lack thereof) of some cur-rent members.

So frequently now, questionshaunt us, such as: “Whatare/were they thinking? Whatfugitive from a psych wardthought of that? Are these peo-ple really as crazy as they act?What kind of dope are theysmoking these days? Don't thesepeople have any sense at all?Who let the idiots out of theirvillages?”

Well, you get the drift. In the past not all legislators

who appeared a little off thedeep end were as strange as theyseemed. This writer well recallsa state senator friend from downin Okmulgee County who regu-larly proposed legislation to cas-trate convicted rapists. Ofcourse, this would not seemstrange when mixed with someof the crazy bills we have float-ing there every year now. Otherthan the one peculiar stance, thatsenator was a good supporter ofeverything progressive in Okla-homa - including colleges andpublic schools. And, he was agraduate of my college.

But those who are sponsoringthe crazy bills now do not appear

to have such redeeming quali-ties. At least, none show.

The craziest of the loony billsin this legislative session arethose proposed by the gunners.Can you really imagine collegecampuses with anyone andeveryone carrying concealedweapons, i.e. everyone whotakes the little gun-handlingshort course and gets certified? Itis difficult to imagine streets andstores like that, much less col-leges and vo-tech schools.

But, lo, there are also legisla-tors who are sponsoring legisla-tion to let anyone carry guns inthe open just about anywherethey go. That is, we can all strapon our six-shooters (excuse me,31-bullet automatics), and go tocollege classes, the grocery storeand maybe even the saloon.

Evidently college administra-tors, faculty, store managers andbartenders will then be carryingtheir guns in order to protectthemselves, the students, thecustomers and to keep order.

Folks, even Wyatt Earp had abetter system than this in oldDodge City, checking in thecowboys' guns when they cameto town.

And, in Tombstone the Earpsand Doc Holliday met Ike Clan-ton and his boys down at the OKcorral for their deadly gunplay -away from innocent people.Who cares about innocent cows?

PETA does,so that wouldnot be al-lowed today.But innocentpeople areOK.

We havehad a rash ofreally uglyimmigrationbills, allaimed atchasing theundocument-ed Mexicans out of the state —and making legals uncomfort-able.

But those bills that threatenedthe interests of Chamber ofCommerce member employersof undocumented residents soongot sidetracked or amended.

Now we have some legislatorsgoing after the Mexican kids,trying to take away their rights tocitizenship by birth although thathappens to be a provision of theU. S. Constitution.

They're called anchor babies.It is hard to deport the parentsand not the child, but some areworking at it.

Denying rights to Mexicanchildren of undocumented work-ers is another regular target.Deny them medical attention,deny them schooling and denythe graduates of state highschools their in-state college tu-

ition rates. It is not hard to reason why all

these harsh immigration bills areintroduced. They are pushed bythe same people every year - theones whose faces we see on tele-vision so frequently appealing totheir tea party type voter base.They love the TV camera andthe publicity they get from theseefforts.

We fear that similar motivesdrive those who each year comeup with some new legislativetwist to have government inter-fere with a woman's right to ter-minate an unwanted pregnancy.

Strangely enough these samepoliticians who push such legis-lation intruding into the personaland family lives of women arethe ones who loudly cry outagainst big government regulat-ing health insurance companiesor big banks in an effort to pro-tect citizen consumers. Never-theless, such foolishness appealsto their religious right wing vot-ers.

Clearly some legislators havemotives of their own, primarilypolitical in nature, for doing thedirty work of some overly zeal-ous, misinformed, bigoted votersout there.

Too bad! But it is still veryhard to understand where thegunners are coming from.Maybe the NRA is promoting allthis, and we don't even know it.

We don't receive their propagan-da.

To a former college adminis-trator who allowed no guns oncampus, in dormitories or any-where else, these gun bills seemcompletely, utterly and incom-prehensibly stupid.

This writer has had the actualexperience of confronting anangry man on campus, carryinghis gun and looking forvengeance. I do not buy the no-tion that if I had been armed thatday I would have been safer.

The peaceful resolution of theproblem could easily have beenquite different with two gunspresent.

I would not want my campusvice president son carrying agun, or his faculty doing so, inorder to meet the challenges ofdisorderly gun-toters on campus.They are not policemen.

But neither would I want myson or other professionals tryingto do their jobs peacefullyamidst an armed student body —or in a town where everybody isfree to carry a gun.

I cannot understand legislatorswho would promote such condi-tions, nor parents who would tol-erate such a circumstance.

If it comes to all this, whatkind of state is this going to be?

Edwin E. Vineyard is a retired col-lege president living in Enid.

Legislators lose senses over new bills?

Winter eliminates some of the stuff I really hate

By Susan ThurstonSt. Petersburg Times

After five years and 10seasons, “Ace of Cakes”star Duff Goldman isheading west to open asecond custom cake shop.

The Food Network real-ity show is about daily op-erations of Charm CityCakes in Baltimore. Afterthe show ends this spring,Goldman and several em-ployees are moving to LosAngeles to set up CharmCity Cakes West, servingCalifornia and Las Vegas.Once it’s up and running,he may try a new show.

Goldman, who nevergoes by his real name, Jef-frey, got his nicknamefrom his older brother,who couldn’t pronouncehis name. In an interview,the 36-year-old Goldman,who’s also a musician andartist, spoke about histhoughts on cupcakes, re-ality TV and Nebraska.

Q: How are you feelingabout the show coming toan end?

A: It’s bittersweet. Ithink that it’s a shock tosee it ending, but at thesame time we’ve kind ofknown about it for a longtime. It’s not like theypulled the rug out fromunder us. It was a very mu-tual decision. ... It’s time todo some new stuff.

Q: Do you plan to moveyour band, soihadto, toLos Angeles?

A: We’ve been talkingabout how we’re going todo it. It’s not called soihad-to anymore. We kicked outa guy who was a bad influ-ence and we’re changingthe name and changing thestyle of music. My favoritename right now is Nebras-ka.

Q: Why Nebraska?A: It conjures some re-

ally good, bleak images offlatness and cold and cornand football. It’s just got abig empty feel to it. It’s abeautiful state and there’sjust not much there. It’skind of ruled by the ele-ments.

Q: What’s your take oncupcakes? Passe?

A: I think the fascina-tion is wearing off, butthere’s always going to bea place for them. I thinkthe market for cupcakes

was huge, and it’s just set-tling down to normal.You’ll probably see theprice point dropping off alittle because people arerealizing that paying $12for something the size ofyour fist is kinda stupid.

Q: Do you watch anyother reality TV?

A: We don’t call ours“reality” because you hearthe word “reality” and the

first thing you think of isbad acting. I’m not a bigfan of reality TV becauseit’s all pretty disgusting. Idon’t find anyone’s stupid-ness interesting. A lot ofthese shows are about no-body doing nothing. Youwatch stuff like “JerseyShore.” It’s a runaway hitand it makes absolutely nosense. Those are peopleyou would never want to

hang out with it.Q: You’ve worked at all

kinds of restaurants, fromthe French Laundry to Mc-Donald’s. Any similari-ties?

A: Both really demandperfection. That’s prettymuch where the similari-ties end.

Q: What’s the attractionto cake?

A: We can work at our

own pace. You’re reallystretched to do your re-search. You’re figuring outwhat to bake, how to bakeit, how to build it. Whatparts are cake and what’snot cake. We are the lucki-est people in the world be-cause every Friday we getto see these cakes whenthey’re done.

From the Heart

By Brenna GilchristStillwater Public Library

Hobby farming has become a growing trend acrossthe nation in the last few years. The idea is to knowwhat is going into the meat products you eat and tosave money.

Of course, here in Stillwater and the surroundingareas, there are many who have raised beef cattle andother livestock for years to sell at auction. You mayhave noticed that some of your friends and familyhave begun to also raise small flocks of chickens foreggs or to raise a pig or steer for meat rather than buyform the store.

Raising your own livestock gives you the chanceto go organic or grass-based rather than using hor-mones and grains. You could also try raising heritagebreeds and rare breeds that are at risk of going ex-tinct.

If you are interested in raising your own livestockfor economical and health reasons, here are a coupleof books at the library that I recommend:

• “Hobby Farm: Living Your Rural Dream forPleasure and Profit” by Carol Ekarius-Ekarius: Theauthor writes from personal experience about decid-ing to make the switch from living in the city to man-aging a small farm. She explains small scale garden-ing, raising livestock and dealing with problems likepests and changing seasons.

• “Living on an Acre: A Practical Guide to the Self-Reliant Life”: This is the classic small farm primerfrom the U.S. Department of Agriculture. It coverstopics like building a barn, beekeeping, raising live-stock and conserving land.

Most importantly, do not forget to enjoy yourself.I have enjoyed going to a family member’s house tohelp collect eggs and feed the hens and watching thehens as they run around the yard and getting all ex-cited after you mow to scratch through the freshly cutgrass for seeds and bugs.

May you have as much joy out of it as I do.

If you were to eavesdrop on a con-versation between weekend outdoorchefs discussing grilling or outdoorcooking, you would more than likelyhear about the meat, the cookingmethod, the sauces and marinades.

A topic discussed less is rubs, andthat is a shame.

Quality rubs add a serious punchof flavor while contributing textureto the final product. They are also thekey ingredient in the formation of themuch sought after bark, the dark,salty, sweet, crusty exterior thatforms on barbecue after a long lowand slow cooking session.

The origin of rubs dates back hun-dreds if not thousands of years whenit was necessary to apply salt and fla-vorings to meat for preservation.Today the appetite for rubs is huge.Browse through the spice section ofany supermarket and you will agree.This column will make your rub pur-chase easier and hopefully give youthe confidence to blend your own.

There are really no hard and fastrules with rubs, but there are certaincharacteristics and ingredients thatare present in rubs based on whatmeat they are going to be applied to.Don’t get me wrong. Some peoplehave one favorite rub that they willpour on anything, including theirmorning cereal.

Allow this general discussion to beyour guide down the rub road so youcan decide what you like.

• BeefTexans are known for their beef

barbecue and grilling, whether youare talking ribs, brisket or steaks. Agood Texas beef rub compliments the

richness of the beef with saltiness,sweetness and a little heat. If you aregrilling a great steak, salt and pepperis really all you need.

Below is a basic Texas style beefrub. Consider this as your base andthen make additions as you workwith it over time to make it matchyour palate.

1/2 cup paprika1/4 cup brown sugar1 1/2 tablespoon of kosher salt3 tablespoons of garlic powder3 tablespoons of onion powder2 tablespoons of dried oregano1/2 teaspoon chili powder (option-

al)

• PorkThe most popular (and traditional)

preparation of pork in the barbecueworld is pulled pork sandwiches.This is typically a Boston butt thathas been rubbed down and slowcooked for hours over low heat thathas been provided by wood burneddown to coals.

This is also a great rub for porkribs.

1/4 cup brown sugar1/4 cup paprika3 tablespoons kosher salt2 tablespoons of coarse black pep-

per1 tablespoon of cayenne pepper2 teaspoons of dry mustard

• Poultry and SeafoodThis type of rub is used for grilling

seafood and chicken or for creatingchicken barbecue, although the otherrubs discussed above can also beused for creating chicken barbecue.The flavor of this rub recipe tends tobe mild with not as much sweetness.You will also notice the inclusion of

a variety of dried herbs.You can also use a blackening rub

for grilling fish, which tends to bemuch spicier. This recipe is the moresubtle version not suitable for black-ening, which will be the topic for an-other column.

2 teaspoons coriander, ground2 teaspoons cumin, ground2 teaspoons garlic powder2 teaspoons marjoram, ground2 teaspoons nutmeg, ground2 teaspoons onion powder1 teaspoon salt2 teaspoons thyme, ground

Learn to experiment with a varietyof rubs this outdoor cooking season.Don’t just buy rub; try your hand atmaking your own too. With enoughexperimentation you may stumbleacross a unique rub recipe that be-comes a family culinary heirloomdestined to be passed on to futuregenerations.

DEAR SQUEAKYCLEAN: Many marriedcouples take showers to-gether, and many don’t.Among those who do, somefind it arousing; othersjust enjoy the intimacyand having someone toscrub their backs.

If you feel your time inthe shower is sacred alonetime, you’re entitled toyour feelings. If an en-counter isn’t pleasurablefor both parties involved,then it’s usually not partic-

ularly satisfying for eitherone.

DEAR ABBY: Myyounger sister, “Janet,” and Iare very close. We live neareach other and have many ofthe same friends. My prob-lem is, Janet likes to sharestories about our childhood,and our childhood was hor-rible. We were poor andhomeless more than once.Both our parents were ondrugs, and our father wasabusive to our mother.

I have tried telling my sis-ter that when she sharesthese stories, I not only findit humiliating, but also findmyself reliving the awfulexperiences. Her response isto remind me that we’re notthose kids anymore. Shedoesn’t think it’s anything tobe ashamed of.

Youmay have a shared history,but you clearly have dif-ferent coping mechanisms,and she should respectyours.

Dear Abby

By Jason [email protected]

The Stillwater Highswim team will be headingto Lawton on Saturday tocompete in the CentennialConference Champi-onships on the base at FortSill.

With the meet beingheld on one day, the swim-mers will compete in pre-lims in the morning start-ing at 10:30 a.m. with thefinals being held in the af-ternoon.

"I'm not terribly con-cerned about it, because inclub swimming they kindof do the same thing,"SHS coach Kurt Goebelsaid. "The whole idea ofdoing a prelims-finalsthing is to where they have

to prepare to swim a goodtime to make finals andfind out what they're upagainst, and then makingfinals and getting somegood points.

"But we do this just soour kids have some kindof experience doing thisprelims-finals type thingand trying to make a finalstype time because otherthan state, this is the onlytime we get to do this. Sothat's kind of why we'redoing it."

Speaking of state, theconference meet is one ofthe last chances for swim-mers on the bubble ofqualifying to reach theneed time to qualify forthe state meet.

"Those kids that are onthe bubble should be very

rested by now," Goebelsaid. "That's the thing, wego into a taper, we start re-ducing meters, workoutsaren't nearly as long —though with this snow it'skind of messed things up alittle bit — but our kidsare rested and they lookpretty fit. So I feel thosekids that are close shouldbe able to get their timesor at least get pretty closeat conference."

As for the conferencecompetition, Goebel saidhe's hopefully for a possi-ble sweep by the boys andgirls squads — though headmitted it will be a littlemore difficult for his girlssquad to come away withthe team title.

"The girls, we've gotsome injuries and some el-

igibility issues and someother types of things thatare kind of plaguing ournumbers now," Goebelsaid. "Enid's got some realgood swimmers at the top.They have three girls thatare very, very good —kind of a Bailey McCul-lough quality. So over-coming those points maybe pretty tough.

"But we do have somedepth and we'll be goingin with six relays — youget to do an A team and aB team in conference. Notall teams can do that, sowe should be able to pickup a few points there."

On the boys, however,Goebel foresees an easy

Pioneers a dream for BarnardBy Jason [email protected]

For Tucker Barnard, findinghimself wearing a Stillwater Highjacket on Monday night was thepinnacle moment in his coachingcareer.

After years of coaching, he hadfinally landed his dream job.

"When I heard that this job wasopen, I was immediately fullspeed ahead. Honestly, this hasbeen a job that, I go back to mycollege days, this would be onethat you would kind of look at as

a dream job,"Barnard said."Coaches are al-ways looking for'that job', lookingfor that one whereyou're like 'That'swhere I want togo, that's where Iwant to build mylegacy.' So Still-

water has kind of been that placefor me. So when I saw it open up,I got after it immediately to doeverything I could to be the nextfootball coach at Stillwater."

He may be just what is neededfor the Stillwater football pro-gram. Not only does Barnardhave experience as a head coach,but he has been both an offensivecoordinator and a defensive coor-dinator in his time coaching highschool football.

Obviously, both hats will bebeneficial for a football team thathas the weapons in place for agreat offense, but lacks the de-fense to go with it.

"I actually started as an offen-sive coach, way back in the day,"Barnard said. "I've coached quar-

terbacks and receivers. I playedquarterback in high school and incollege at Northwestern Okla-homa State. ... It wasn't untilShiloh that I started coaching de-fense. So I've been a part of all ofit and have been a head coach be-fore, overseeing all of it. So Ihave background everywhere.I've even been a special teams co-ordinator, also."

While Barnard's experiencewas understandably a big drawfor Stillwater, the school system

Swimmers head to championships

SHS starts final stretch on the roadBy Jason [email protected]

The Stillwater High boys andgirls basketball squads are com-ing down the home stretch of theregular season. The Pioneers havejust four remaining games overthe next two weeks, starting withFriday's road trip to Ponca Cityfor a Centennial Conference re-match.

When the schools last pairedup, it was two totally differentgames from the boys and girls.The Lady Pioneers held out for aslim 41-38 home victory, whilethe boys squad blew out its con-ference rival to the tune of 87-46.

But now it's time to see how thePioneers can handle their rivals ina hostile environment.

"We've got to make sure thatwe go out and do what we're sup-posed to do," SHS girls coach

Carl Treat said. "We know Poncais going to defend well, so we'vegot to make the easy looks andmake sure that when we get somescoring opportunities that wemake the shots we're supposed tomake."

For the boys team, it will be acase of trying to copy whatthey've done over the last eightgames. The Pioneers had a seven-game winning streak snapped lastFriday, but it took overtime byBishop McGuinness in order totop SHS — which had won it'sseven previous games by an aver-age margin of 17.

"We've got to try to set thetempo right from the get-go,"SHS boys coach Michael Davissaid. "We've got to keep in mindthat this is still a conference gameand we're still trying to win a con-ference championship. So thegame is very important."

While the boys did suffer a

close loss to McGuinness on Fri-day, Davis said that the gamewasn't a total loss. The Pioneerswere shorthanded with top scorerJosh Pierre out nursing an injurysuffered in the ShawneeShootout, which gave some otherplayers an opportunity to playagainst a top-notch team beforepostseason play.

"That game showed us whattype of team we can have," Davissaid. "Minus Josh, it gave us abetter chance to develop Dylan(Murrell) and Tyler (Holcomb),which makes our rotation nine to10 (players) now. So it was a goodgame in the sense that those twoguys played big minutes in thatgame."

Davis said Pierre is progressingnicely, but that there won't be afinal decision made on his statusuntil Thursday, at the earliest. Re-gardless, Pierre should be backhealthy by postseason play.

And that has been one thingbenefiting both the boys and girlssquads this year — health. Be-sides a pre-season injury to JoePierre that ended his season be-fore it started, the boys team has-n't had any major injuries. Andthe same could be said for thegirls team.

"That's one thing we've beenfortunate with — knock on woodthat it will stay that way," Treatsaid. "The main thing is trying tomaintain some type of level ofconditioning and keep our confi-dence up and cross your fingersand hope everyone stays healthy.But that is a big reason why we'vehad success this year is becausewe haven't had to rearrange ourlineup and shuffle our lineup ...and that has really helped usmaintain some continuity."

For the girls right now, though,

The St. Louis Blues sawplenty of snow and ice, butno Avalanche.

The Blues’ gameagainst the ColoradoAvalanche on Tuesdaynight was postponed be-cause of a storm cutting afrigid path across much ofthe nation.

A makeup date has notbeen set for the NHLgame, which would havebeen the first since the All-

Star break for both teams.Missouri has been hit by

what could be the its worstwinter storm in decades, adangerous mix of snow,freezing rain, wind andcold. Whiteouts paralyzedOklahoma City and theTulsa area, and blowingsnow created drifts up to 4feet high. Conditions inthe area were so forbid-ding that The Humane So-ciety of Missouri urgedpeople to bring pets in-side.

and community were equally big draws for Barnard."The draw really is about the tradition, the city of

Stillwater, it's about the type of kids you find here, it'sabout this community," Barnard said. "My family is allhere, so that obviously helps. But it's so much more.It's all of that rolled up into one. It's kind of the perfectsituation for me."

But Barnard's duties won't end on the football field.The Woodland High graduate and Oklahoma Statealum will have to manage being the head of a footballprogram, as well as the head of an entire athletic de-partment as he'll take over for current athletics direc-tor Butch Lingenfelter come next year.

"I think it comes with organization and time-man-agement skills," Barnard said of balancing the two du-ties.

"I just have to do a good job of being able to gofrom one role into the other in the course of a day. Thething is, they're blended together and neither one ofthose jobs really has an end to the day. It's always acontinuation, there's always something new, some-thing different to do every single day. So I've got to beable to reaction and respond, but also to have clearmind and be mindful of the decisions I'll be makingdaily."

is to get things reignited on the offensive end. TheLady Pioneers have stalled at times on offense sincecoming back from the winter break. That was the lead-ing cause in their 53-31 loss to Bishop McGuinness onFriday.

"Part of it is that we've got to make sure that we getsome good looks," Treat said. "People have scouted usnow, we're not going to sneak up on anyone any more.So we're going to have to work a little harder to helpeach other get open. Our shooting percentage, earlyon, was pretty high and it's dipped a little bit and that'sbecause people are guarding us a lot more and are pre-pared for us a lot more."

road to the conference championship, thanks largely totheir depth.

"The whole boys team, we've got a lot of kids thatgive us a lot of depth," Goebel said. "I'm predictingthat we're going to clobber people with the boys justbecause of that depth. I'm going down there with 19boys, I'd be surprised if the other teams have any morethan six or eight kids. As far as the conference meet,we have a very, very good team for that."

Super Bowl week off to cold startFORT WORTH, Texas (AP) —

Super Bowl week is too cold so farfor “The Freezer.”

B.J. Raji, the 337-pound nosetackle for the Packers who’s drawncomparisons to former Bears stand-out William “The Fridge” Perry,made that clear Tuesday at mediaday.

“Too cold,” Raji said. “Feels likethe AC is on.”

While the rest of the Dallas areaslipped and slid through a miserablemorning of ice, bone-chilling windsand light snow, the NFL stuck to itsSuper Bowl schedule. Leaguespokesman Greg Aiello sent out aTwitter message saying media activ-ities at Cowboys Stadium in subur-ban Arlington would go on asplanned — and they did, with theroof thankfully closed high abovethe Packers, Pittsburgh Steelers andhundreds of reporters in town forSunday’s game.

“The show goes on,” Aiellowrote. “Media day is on schedule.Drive carefully.”

The news was a little more tenu-ous for travelers: Dallas-Fort WorthInternational Airport was closed forabout an hour due to the storm, andprimary tenant American Airlinescanceled 800 flights — about half itsdaily service.

The wintry blast of ice, blusterywinds and plummeting temperaturesalso closed schools and snarled traf-fic. Walkways outside Cowboys Sta-dium in Arlington were a sheet ofice and a temporary building set upon the grounds had a hole in it, cur-tains flapping in the stiff wind. ThePackers might even practice indoorsthis week if the weather doesn’t im-prove — just like they do at home.

“It’s a little too cold for me,” line-backer Clay Matthews said. “Texasis supposed to be hot and humid. Iwas looking forward to that. I am a

California guy.”Then again, receiver Greg Jen-

nings said it felt like home.“We’re in Green Bay right now,”

he said. “We’re the home team andwe’re at home with this weather.”

The storm was expected to dumpmore than a foot of snow on parts ofthe Midwest, and it covered roadsall over North Texas with layers offreezing rain. The commuting crowdwas much lighter, though, becauseschools were closed and many peo-ple simply stayed home.

The Super Bowl next year is slat-ed for Indianapolis and the year afterin the open-air New MeadowlandsStadium in New Jersey, raising thepossibility of more chilly stories inthe week before the game. MichaelMorris, director of transportation forthe North Central Texas Council ofGovernments, said sand trucks gavethe “bad storm” everything they hadto keep roads clear.

A true gift, orone of Greek origin?By Phillip Alder

Dave Barry said, “I can win an argument on any topic, against

any opponent. People know this, and steer clear of me at parties. Often, as a sign of their great respect, they don’t even invite me.” Can you win this argument -- battle -- at the bridge table? You are in three no-trump. West leads the heart fi ve. How would you plan the play? Your response of one no-trump showed 6-9 points (or a poor 10) and fewer than three spades. North cautiously invited game when most would have jumped to three no-trump. But

you rightly moved on because your hand had a good fi ve-card suit and two 10s. Given the heart lead, you have six top tricks: one spade, four hearts and one diamond. And the club suit will provide four more winners. But you must watch your entries. If you play low from the dummy, take the trick with your heart 10, and play on clubs, West, if he learned the game before breakfast, will only take his ace on the second round of the suit. Then, how will you get back to your

hand to cash those three club winners? You won’t! You must sacrifi ce one heart trick to get four club tricks. You must play second hand high, winning the fi rst trick with dummy’s heart king. Then you immediately attack clubs to collect nine tricks: one spade, three hearts, one diamond and four clubs. It is good business to give up one trick if you get three in return. And if you do that here, partner will surely invite you to the next bridge party.Copyright 2011, UFS
