Chef reflects on challenges, and reaching goals By Duran Bobb for, the Spilyay Tymoo At one point in her life Angel Wells felt like she was going nowhere and had a criminal mentality, she says. But her recent victory and change - of attitude have im pressed family and friends. Angel recently graduated from the Oregon Culinary Arts Institute in Pordand. “I used to have a real Angel Wells criminal mentality,” Wells said. “ It was in my background. At' Angel with financial aid pa one time, I wasn’t really do perw ork and set up her ing anything with myself and classes. that’s not a happy place to be.

I think that’s true for most people w ho have any type o f dream.” Classes included preparing dishes in the kitchen, class time, field trips to study sea food, learning how to put to gether a menu, and manag ing your own business. “There was my obstacle,” Angel said. “There was a lot of emphasis placed on man agement. You have to be able to come up w ith a m enu guide, and yqu have to dem onstrate how you would, op erate your own business. We learned how to keep track of kitchen inventory, keep track of the budget. We learned how to identify what plates are selling and what is not. We learned how to create an at mosphere, and how to iden tify which wines went with certain dishes.” After graduating, Angel began the process of apply ing for a small business loan in Warm Springs. However, she quickly became discour aged by the amount of pa perw ork and steps that it would take to secure a loan. “I just get things done bet ter in the city,” she said. “I’m more motivated, there would be more customers in the city, and I w ant to create something with atmosphere. I want something that people will look at and say, ‘There’s Angel!”’ Eventually, Angel would like to open her own food cart. On the side, she plans to specialty catering. Angel beams as she speaks of the person that she once was and the woman she has become today. She is, as she puts it, back on her feet. “I can do this, anybody can do this,” she said. “But be warned! If you want this par ticular type o f degree, you may wind up doing a lot of overtime!” Coal transport a concern for tribes Leadership of Northwest tribes have called on the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers to conduct a full environmental analysis for all six proposals ! to transport and export coal through their shared lands j and waters.

Six proposals call for trans-! porting Powder River Basin, coal from Montana through Indian and non-Indian lands!, in the Northwest via rail and barge. Tribal communities are! expressing concern about the health and safety impacts;; from environmental dangers;! of coal dust. “Along the Columbia River it’s cliff, highway, railroad,- then river,” said Paul Lumley, executive director of the Co- ! lum bia River Inter-T ribal Fish Commission. “ O ur com m unities are wedged between the railroad and the river. We’ve got no where to escape.” said Paul Lumley, Execu tive Director of the Portland- based Columbia River Inter- Tribal Fish Commission. “If we cannot escape, neither will the coal.” KWSO hosted a voter registration day last week.
