As of Tuesday afternoon, the expected high point of the 45th annual gathering on national forest lands, more than 13,000 people had set up camp. Flagtail Meadows, the site of the gathering in the Malheur National Forest south of John Day, buzzed with activity over the weekend as new arrivals carried supplies into the camp. To feed the masses, several large kitchens have been set up around the site. The Global Relief Kitchen is situated in a massive tepee and is capable of making 100 gallons of food in an hour using minimal natural fuel. An attendee who called himself “Lucid,” of the Global Relief Kitchen, said the Rainbow Gathering is a great testing ground for disaster relief projects. “When you’re actually in a disaster situation or refugee camp, you don’t have the time or the ability to test and make changes to the project,” he said. “Everything has to be perfect.” The kitchen uses roughly six rocket stoves made from used oil drums and beer kegs. EO Media Group photo by Rylan Boggs “Lucid” stands for a photo in the Global Relief Kitchen at the Rainbow Gathering on Saturday, July 1. The oil drums contain the heat made by a small fire and cook whatever is placed into the kegs above them. The result is a highly efficient stove that keeps the teepee cool and vents smoke out of people’s breathing space. Lucid set up the kitchen during the 2016 floods in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and is working to make the kitchen an official nonprofit. “Rainbow has been a really great trial ground to iron out all the kinks, trou- bleshoot all the problems,” he said. The kitchen typically cooks vegetarian stir-fries, curries and soups because they are able to feed the largest variety of people with vegetarian food. The meals provided by the Global Relief Kitchen bring people together and help create a sense of community at the gathering. Attendee Dan Hooke said this is his eighth gath- ering. He keeps returning because he enjoys the sense of community. Hooke hand- makes flutes from bamboo and enjoys sharing his music with other attendees. He also trades his flutes for anything he might need at the gathering, where bartering is the only form of currency. Janel Ahle and her young daughter Masha are attending their first gathering. Ahle said she believes her daughter will enjoy Kiddie Village, an area made specifically for children at the gathering, and she looks forward to the socialization her daughter will experience. The Rainbow Gathering, which began with a July 4 prayer in 1972, is non-de- nominational and welcomes all faiths. The Jesus Kitchen, at the Jesus Camp, holds regular morning prayers and a more formal meeting Sunday night, as well as cooking for anyone who comes by. “We try to create an atmo- sphere here where people can come in and feel loved and accepted,” said Joshua Hanson of the Jesus Kitchen. The camp has been a staple at national Rainbow Gatherings since 1997. “Predominantly, people are really open and accepting of Jesus Camp out here, but there are some people that have a problem with it,” Hanson said. Like most of the others, Jesus Kitchen usually cooks vegetarian but will some- times include meat on the menu. “Not a lot of kitchens will do meat,” he said. “But we do try to mix it up occasionally just because there are people that need the meat.” Oregon becomes first state to allow gender-neutral licenses SALEM (AP) — Oregon has become the first state in the U.S. to allow residents who don’t identify as male or female to mark their gender as “not specified” when they apply for a driver’s license, learner’s permit or identity card. The rule went into effect Monday. It comes after the mayor of Washington, D.C., said the district was the first jurisdiction to offer the option late last month.

The DMV said it studied state laws, updated computer Psychic Medinm & systems, worked with law enforcement and the courts, and changed administrative rules to comply with the court order. California lawmakers also are considering adding a third gender option on state IDs. Author By PARIS ACHEN Capital Bureau SALEM — The Oregon Senate voted 21-to-7 Tuesday to require audio recordings of grand jury proceedings. The bill modernizes the state’s more than 150-year-old handwritten record-keeping process by requiring county district attorneys to electronically audio record grand jury proceedings and maintain and store copies of the recordings. “This bill will bring our justice system into the 21st Century, but it’s about more than that,” said Sen. Floyd Prozanski, D-Eugene, who has spearheaded similar legislation for several years. “We’re working on Inde- pendence Day right now. July Fourth is a beautiful day, and it’s about freedom and liberty. We have a chance to ensure liberty, justice for all and an oppor- tunity to ensure our criminal justice system remains above all reproach.” The bill heads for a vote in the House later this week. The requirement will be gradually phased in for the state’s 36 counties. The mandate triggers March 1 for Multnomah, Deschutes and Jackson counties, all of which have a population of 150,000 or greater. The state’s other 33 counties Corrections The East Oregonian works hard to be accurate and sincerely regrets any errors. If you notice a mistake in the paper, please call 541-966-0818.

The bill provides about $10 million for the cost of purchasing electronic recording devices and hiring staff to manage the recordings in the three counties. The Legislative Fiscal Office has noted that there could be significant costs to the state in the 2019-2021 budget as the remaining 33 counties begin the recordings. The prosecutor must provide a copy or transcript of the recording to the defense attorney within 10 days after a defendant is arraigned on an indictment. The defense attorney is prohibited from sharing the actual copy of the recording with the defendant and may not disclose personal identi- fying information about the victim, witnesses or grand jurors to the defendant. The recordings are otherwise confidential. Prosecutors also may request a protection order from the court to redact certain information they believe could put a victim or witness in danger. Sen. Kim Thatcher, R-Keizer, said the bill’s main weakness is it disal- lows hearsay testimony by law enforcement officers on behalf of witnesses. The only exceptions are for people with certain disabili- ties and minors. 34 99 /per mo. for 12 mos 1 (800) 514-3849 JohnEdward.net or ETix.com (A Reading Not Guaranteed) * The MOST HD | SUPERFAST Internet | SUPERIOR Voice 125+ CHANNELS UP TO 100MBPS UNLIMITED CALLING Triple Play Select $ TV, INTERNET AND PHONE from 89 99 /mo each for 12 mos when bundled*
