By Vanessa Miller Daily Evergreen staff As temperatures drop, utility bills are increasing for Pullman residents. Heating bills have increased more than 20 percent from last year for local customers, depending on their living situa- tions. One cause of the increased heating bills is the cold weather that slammed the Palouse early this winter. “We had cold weather between 10 and 20 degrees for weeks [in November],” said Catherine Markson, an Avista Utilities representative. “It really DEAN HARE/DAILY EVERGREEN was just that cold.” Natalie Williams and daughter Jaiden, 6 months, are helped by Janet Moriarty as they buy stamps on Monday.

World record for owl collection awarded LEEDS, Maine — With more than 18,000 collectible owl memorabilia, Pam Barker half-kidded that she had a world’s record. It turns out that she’s right. Barker, 47, sent her count, a video and photographs to Guinness World Records last spring. A couple of weeks ago, she got a certificate veri- fying her claim. “I did it as an investment, then out of curiosity,” Barker said. Her collection has ceramic, mac- rame and plush owls, owls on beer steins and on towels, owl necklaces, owl statues, owl wind chimes, owl greeting cards. Even a blue toilet seat with a green owl painted under the lid. The collection, all 18,055 items , had been owned by Dianne Turner, a collector who had recently died. A family friend was cleaning out the house and put the owls up for sale for $7,000. Barker offered about half. It took four people 13 days to pack all the items up, and it took Barker months to unpack and clean them. On the Internet, Barker found someone who claimed to have the world’s largest collection of owl items, with 8,000. So Barker applied with Guinness and got her collection certified as the world’s largest. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

To make a run, the team has to find a way to close games. It was a problem in Los Angeles last weekend, as well. Certainly a full arena would help pump the Cougars up for home games, but until the team consistently wins, that won’t happen. The team will have to prove its worth before its fans jump on the Cougar bandwagon. For every win like this season’s against Washington or last year’s in Tucson, the team endured at least one demoral- izing home loss — see Stanford, 2004, and UCLA and Arizona, 2005. Fans have swallowed too many close losses to make every- one a believer. This team is still young, but that excuse will not last much longer for a fan base hungry for a winning Pac-10 season.
