Page 15 Illinois Valley News, Cave Junction, Ore. Wednesday, May 26, 2010 Alfalfa sprouts recalled Oregon Public Health officials are warning consum- ers about a nationwide recall of alfalfa sprouts produced by Caldwell Fresh Foods, of Maywood, Calif., and sold under several label names in Oregon. The sprouts are being sold in at least 17 other states in the West, Midwest and the South. The sprouts have been identi- fied as the source of an out- break of salmonellosis. All Caldwell-produced alfalfa sprout products are covered in the recall. To date, 23 people from 10 states, including one Mult- nomah County infant, have been identified with matching Salmonella Newport. At least four of these people, including the Oregon child, were hospi- talized. No deaths have been reported. “Once again, alfalfa sprouts have been identified as the cause of an outbreak of salmonellosis,” said William E. Keene, a senior epidemiolo- gist at Oregon Public Health. “Consumers who have sprouts at home should check to see if they have the recalled brands, and if so should discard them immediately. ” The recalled sprouts were packaged in 4-ounce plastic cups and 1-pound plastic bags under the Caldwell Fresh Foods brand; 4-ounce plastic cups under the Nature’s Choice brand; 5-ounce plastic clamshell containers under the California Fresh Exotics brand; and 2-pound and 5- pound plastic bags in card- board boxes with a Caldwell Fresh Foods sticker. In Oregon, the recalled sprouts were sold at Trader Joe’s, Wal-Mart and possibly other locations, including res- taurants and delicatessens. “Caldwell has agreed to voluntarily recall their alfalfa sprouts and is cooperating fully with our investigation,” Keene said. State and federal agencies are working with Caldwell to remove potentially contaminated sprouts from distribution and to identify the source of the problem -- usu- ally contaminated seed. GO WEST!

(Photos by Michelle Binker, Illinois Valley News ) Excessive vehicle speed risky; can have devastating consequences Speeding: Driving too fast for conditions or in excess of the posted limit. Consequences: *Speeding is the number- one contributor to traffic deaths and injuries in Oregon. Last year, out of 416 total traffic fa- talities in Oregon, 210 were speed-related. *On average, speed is a contributing factor in half of Oregon’s fatal crashes — a fig- ure higher than the national average. And speed is the only factor in 30 percent of traffic fatalities. *Speeders kill more inno- cent Oregonians than drunk drivers. During 2008, 40 percent of those who died in speed- related crashes (84 of 210) were innocent victims or passengers, not speeding drivers. *Besides the loss of inno- cent lives, the total estimated economic cost of speeding- related crashes in Oregon during 2008 was $700 million. *Tailgating, often involv- ing a speeding driver following closely behind another vehicle, is the leading cause of traffic crashes in Oregon. *Fatality rates from speed- ing on rural roads are four times higher than in urban areas. Enforcement Noted *Law enforcement officers are cracking down on speeders with new technologies, includ- ing laser devices that track speed and determine the distance be- tween vehicles. *Speeding tickets are ex- pensive, and faster speeds mean bigger tickets. Exceeding the speed limit by 30 mph can lead to a 30-day driver’s license sus- pension and a $679 fine. Speeds of 100 mph or more could earn drivers a $1,103 fine plus a 30- to 90-day driver’s license sus- pension. *Excessive speed can also lead to additional charges such as arrest for reckless driving, which is a Class A Misde- meanor crime. If convicted of reckless driving, drivers face a mandatory license suspension of at least 90 days. *During 2008, Oregon State Police troopers cited 376 drivers for driving 100 mph or faster. *Between 2000 and 2008, OSP troopers cited over 35,500 drivers for going between 90 to 99 mph, and more than 4,500 drivers for going 100 mph and faster. *Increased fines and the threat of license suspensions are thought to have played an im- portant role in a 30 percent re- duction in the number of drivers driving 100 mph and faster since 2006. Speeding Risks Cited *The higher the speed, the higher the risk of death or seri- ous injury. The chances of dying or being seriously injured in a traffic crash doubles for every 10 mph past 50 mph. This equates to a 400 percent greater chance of death or injury at 70 mph than at 50 mph. *Safety equipment in vehi- cles is tested at 35 mph. That same equipment loses the ability to work effectively at higher speeds. *Speeding reduces a driver’s ability to steer safely around curves or obstacles, ex- tends the distance necessary to stop and increases the distance a vehicle travels while the driver reacts to a dangerous situation — increasing the likelihood and severity of crashes. *The stopping distance for a passenger car on dry asphalt increases from 229 feet at 50 mph to 387 feet at 70 mph — a 69 percent increase. *One of the most danger- ous combinations is high speed and corners. The largest percent- age of speed-related traffic deaths occur when a vehicle leaves the roadway, often on a corner, and crashes into a fixed object, such as a tree or rock. *The time actually saved by speeding is negligible at best, and deadly at worst. A 10- to 15 -mile trip in a 45 mph speed zone at 55 to 60 mph saves a maximum of 3.5 minutes. LEGAL NOTICE TRUSTEE’S NOTICE OF SALE T.S.

A foreclo- sure sale is scheduled for 9/7/2010. Unless the lender who is foreclosing on this property is paid, the foreclosure will go through and someone new will own this property. The following information applies to you only if you occupy and rent this property as a residential dwelling under a legiti- mate rental agreement. The information does not apply to you if you own this property or if you are not a residential tenant. If the foreclosure goes through, the business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale has the right to require you to move out. The buyer must first give you an eviction notice in writing that specifies the date by which you must move out. The buyer may not give you this notice until after the foreclosure sale happens. If you do not leave before the move -out date, the buyer can have the sheriff remove you from the property after a court hearing. You will receive notice of the court hearing. FEDERAL LAW REQUIRES YOU TO BE NOTIFIED IF YOU ARE OCCUPYING AND RENTING THIS PROP- ERTY AS A RESIDENTIAL DWELLING UNDER A LEGITIMATE RENTAL AGREEMENT, FEDERAL LAW REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU A NOTICE IN WRITING A CERTAIN NUMBER OF DAYS BEFORE THE BUYER CAN REQUIRE YOU TO MOVE OUT. THE FEDERAL LAW THAT REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU THIS NOTICE IS EFFECTIVE UNTIL DECEMBER 31, 2012. Under federal law, the buyer must give you at least 90 days' notice in writing before requiring you to move out. If you are renting this property under a fixed-term lease (for example, a six-month or one-year lease), you may stay until the end of your lease term. If the buyer wants to move in and use this property as the buyer's primary residence, the buyer can give you written notice and require you to move out after 90 days, even if you have a fixed-term lease with more than 90 days left. STATE LAW NOTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS IF THE FEDERAL LAW DOES NOT APPLY, STATE LAW STILL REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU NOTICE IN WRITING BEFORE RE- QUIRING YOU TO MOVE OUT IF YOU ARE OC- CUPYING AND RENTING THE PROPERTY AS A TENANT IN GOOD FAITH. EVEN IF THE FED- ERAL LAW REQUIREMENT IS NO LONGER EFFECTIVE AFTER DECEMBER 31, 2012, THE REQUIREMENT UNDER STATE LAW STILL AP- PLIES TO YOUR SITUATION. Under state law, if you have a fixed-term lease (for example, a six- month or one-year lease), the buyer must give you at least 60 days' notice in writing before requiring you to move out. If the buyer wants to move in and use this property as the buyer's primary resi- dence, the buyer can give you written notice and require you to move out after 30 days, even if you have a fixed term lease with more than 30 days left. If you are renting under a month-to-month or week-to-week rental agreement, the buyer must give you at least 30 days' notice in writing before requiring you to move out. IMPORTANT: For the buyer to be required to give you a notice under state law, you must prove to the business or indi- vidual who is handling the foreclosure sale that you are occupying and renting this property as a residential dwelling under a legitimate rental agreement. The name and address of the busi- ness or individual who is handling the foreclosure sale is shown on this notice under the heading "TRUSTEE". You must mail or deliver your proof not later than 8/8/2010 (30 days before the date first set for the foreclosure sale). Your proof must be in writing and should be a copy of your rental agreement or lease. If you do not have a written rental agreement or lease, you can provide other proof, such as receipts for rent paid. ABOUT YOUR SECURITY DEPOSIT Under state law, you may apply your security deposit and any rent you paid in advance against the current rent you owe your landlord. To do this, you must notify your landlord in writing that you want to subtract the amount of your security deposit or prepaid rent from your rent payment. You may do this only for the rent you owe your current landlord. If you do this, you must do so before the foreclosure sale. The business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale is not responsible to you for any deposit or prepaid rent you paid to your land- lord. ABOUT YOUR TENANCY AFTER THE FORECLOSURE SALE The business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale may be willing to allow you to stay as a tenant instead of requiring you to move out. You should contact the buyer to discuss that possibility if you would like to stay. Under state law, if the buyer accepts rent from you, signs a new residential rental agreement with you or does not notify you in writ- ing within 30 days after the date of the foreclosure sale that you must move out, the buyer becomes your new landlord and must maintain the property. Otherwise, the buyer is not your landlord and is not responsible for maintaining the property on your behalf and you must move out by the date the buyer specifies in a notice to you. YOU SHOULD CONTINUE TO PAY RENT TO YOUR LANDLORD UNTIL THE PROPERTY IS SOLD TO ANOTHER BUSINESS OR INDIVIDUAL OR UNTIL A COURT OR A LENDER TELLS YOU OTHERWISE. IF YOU DO NOT PAY RENT, YOU CAN BE EVICTED. AS EXPLAINED ABOVE, YOU MAY BE ABLE TO APPLY A DEPOSIT OR RENT YOU PREPAID AGAINST YOUR CUR- RENT RENT OBLIGATION. BE SURE TO KEEP PROOF OF ANY PAYMENTS YOU MAKE AND OF ANY NOTICE YOU GIVE OR RECEIVE CON- CERNING THE APPLICATION OF YOUR DE- POSIT OR PREPAID RENT. IT IS UNLAWFUL FOR ANY PERSON TO TRY TO FORCE YOU TO LEAVE YOUR HOME WITHOUT FIRST GO- ING TO COURT TO EVICT YOU. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR RIGHTS, YOU MAY WISH TO CONSULT A LAWYER.
