Tillamook County hit with winter weather T
Staff
illamook didn’t quite get a white Christmas, but Old Man Winter made a visit Sunday, one day late. Residents woke to 1.5” of fresh snow in the lower areas of Tillamook and according to reports from Tillamook County’s Meteorologist Gordon McCraw, much more snow in higher elevations of Tillamook County. “Travel is still tough in spots though the temperature is up to 36 there now (by midday Sunday) so the roads are much improved at sea level,” McCaw said in his midday weather report. “It is still 33 degrees at Lees Camp and 27 degrees at the summit along Hwy 6 so likely messy still across the top and Hwy 26 is still not user friendly either. It looks like Tillamook itself got around 1.5” of snow so far while the Coast Range is reporting over 20” roadside last report.” Those waiting until Monday to travel had to also prepare for icy roads and bad conditions. “The temperatures will likely fall shortly after sunset to 32 degrees which means it won’t be long before ice becomes an issue, in addition to new snow,” McCraw’s report read. “We do think the activity will ease up some later tonight, but it is still possible to see another inch of snow overnight. Overall, I think travel tonight will become quite challenging for everyone. With everything iced over, even walking could be difficult.” The coldest part of a day is right at sunrise and the forecast is for the low temperatures to fall to around 18-22 degrees which tells me any travel tomorrow will be hazardous with ice covered roads and walkways, for much of the day as tomorrow’s high is only forecasted to reach 34. The precipitation tomorrow will be more isolated which is a small bonus. “Monday night we have another system moving across that will bring more steady precipitation, not as heavy as we have seen though so overnight snow totals around another inch, and like I said, the high only near 34 degrees,” he said in his report. “ Maybe some good news, high pressure starts to build in tomorrow night, so the precipitation becomes more widely scattered and diminishing, the overnight lows still down around 20 degrees.” Extended forecast Wednesday we may see more sun than we have seen for a while, a mostly sunny day, the high still
By 8 a.m. Tillamook received about 1.5” of fresh snow and bad driving conditions. (Above) The Courthouse looking east on 2nd Street in Tillamook. (Below) Snow plows were out in full force clearing roads Sunday morning as Tillamook County got hit with a winter blast. Photos by Joe Warren only make it to 37 degrees, then another chance of snow moves in again in the early morning hours, the low around 24. After Wednesday the coldest air starts to shift eastward so daytime highs up into the mid 40s, the lows still down around freezing, and with additional systems moving through, we will see more rain, and depending on timing rain/snow, or all snow to the lower levels in the early morning hours.

Upcoming COVID-19 surge predicted due to omicron T
Hilary Dorsey Staff Writer
illamook County Health Department reported during a community update Tuesday, Dec. 21, 29 COVID-19 cases for the weekend case count from Dec. 17-19. The 7-day case count from Dec. 12-18 was 71. The 14-day case count from Dec. 5-18 was 147. “For the month to date through Dec. 19, we’ve had 160 cases,” Emergency Preparedness Coordinator Ed Colson said. Tillamook County has seen 48 COVID-related deaths, as of Dec. 21. Thirty-nine of those individuals were not vaccinated, eight were fully vaccinated and one had no vaccine record. “We have three confirmed outbreaks, 14 pending investigation,
for a total of 17 under monitoring,” Colson said. Four cases of the omicron variant have been detected in Oregon, three of them being from Multnomah and Washington counties and one from Lane County, Colson said. Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) reports Oregon has an estimated three weeks to prepare for a surge in cases due to omicron. “There’s still much unknown about the omicron variant but it appears to be more easily spread than previous variants, being more transmissible and in addition to affecting those not yet vaccinated, can infect fully vaccinated individuals, especially those that have not yet received their booster shot,” Colson said. Colson said we can prepare for the upcoming surge by increasing the number of people getting vaccinated,
getting a booster shot if already vaccinated and wearing a mask in indoor public spaces. “We must double down on following the measures,” Colson said. “That will help keep us as safe as possible.” COVID-19 testing remains available through the health center at the acute care clinic, located at 2111 8th St. in Tillamook. Hours are 1-5 p.m. Monday through Friday. Appointments are required. Call 503-8423900 to schedule an appointment. Testing is also available at Adventist Health, Rinehart Clinic and local pharmacies. The health center’s walk-in vaccine clinic at the Tillamook County Fairgrounds Convention Center will be open from 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 28, from 1-5 p.m. Wednesday, Dec. 29, and from 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 30.
“Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines for your first, second, third and booster doses, as well as flu and pneumonia vaccines will be available there,” Colson said. “We do not have Johnson & Johnson available anymore at the walk-in clinic.” Adventist Health, Rinehart Clinic and local pharmacies also have vaccines available. Regarding holiday gatherings, the health department states one of the most important things you can do is ask everyone at your gathering to be fully vaccinated and receive a booster shot. “In addition, Tillamook County Public Health recommends the following safety precautions: To limit exposure, keep your gatherings small, recommend to only gather with people in your household or try a virtual option to add in others. If you do
choose to gather with the news of the predicted upcoming surge, please be extra mindful of your choices. Consider avoiding contact with others outside your household, five to seven days prior to your gathering.” Colson said at-home COVID-19 tests may be a good idea to use before traveling or gathering with others. Try to avoid sharing utensils, plate and glasses, and continue to wear a mask. “Traveling by car with members of your own household is the safest method [of travel],” Colson said. “If you do go by air or public transit, please remember to always wear a proper-fitting mask and avoid eating or drinking, especially in crowded situations.” Send comments to: headlightreporter@countrymedia.net

Gov.

support hospital operations. The Oregon National Guard is prepared to provide logistical support for more than 20 hospitals across the state. “This morning I received the grim news that there are 733 Oregonians hospitalized with severe cases of COVID-19, including 185 in intensive care units,” said Brown. “I cannot emphasize enough the seriousness of this crisis for all Oregonians, especially those needing emergency and intensive care. When our hospitals are full with COVID-19 patients, there may not be room for someone needing care after a car crash, a heart attack, or other emergency situation.” “I know this is not the summer many of us envisioned, with over 2.5 million Oregonians vaccinated against COVID-19. The harsh, and frustrating reality is that the Delta variant has changed everything. Delta is highly contagious, and we must take action now.”

On Thursday, Feb. 18, at approximately 10:55 a.m., Oregon State Police Troopers and emergency personnel responded to a two-vehicle crash on Hwy 22 near milepost 1 - east of Hebo. Preliminary investigation revealed a Ford Ranger, operated by Jonathan Moreland of Tillamook, was eastbound when it crossed into the westbound lane and collided with a Dodge Ram 3500, towing a trailer, operated by Joshua Brown of Newberg. Moreland and a passenger in the Ford Ranger, Jimmie Toll of Bay City, sustained fatal injuries and were pronounced deceased. Two other passengers in the Ford Ranger, Dominic Reeves of Tillamook and Alexis Bacon of Amity, were transported to the hospital with injuries.

Most Oregonians who receive Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits will receive emergency allotments in May. The federal government has approved emergency allotments every month since March 2020, to give SNAP recipients additional support during the COVID-19 pandemic. There are two important federal changes to the SNAP Emergency Allotments in May 2021. Households that are already receiving the maximum SNAP benefits for their household size will now receive an additional $95 in emergency allotments in May. This increase will impact approximately 284,000 households (67 percent of Oregon SNAP households) and will have an impact of $28 million in additional benefits for households in Oregon. Households who are eligible for $0 in regular SNAP benefits will not receive the May emergency allotments. This change is because the federal government clarified households must receive regular SNAP to be eligible for emergency allotments. This change does not impact other SNAP benefits and services these households may receive, such as employment and training services. This change will impact approximately 4,300 households. Those impacted by this change are encouraged to report any changes that may impact their regular SNAP amount, such as loss of income or increase in shelter expenses. “We are grateful to have the opportunity to increase emergency benefits available to some SNAP households in Oregon,” said Oregon Department of Human Services (ODHS) Director Fariborz Pakseresht. “We also know that for those 4,300 households who will no longer receive the emergency allotments, that this change can be significant and difficult. We encourage them, and all Oregonians who are struggling to meet their basic needs to contact our partners at 211 and the Oregon Food Bank.” Number Four March 10, 2021

Traffic stop leads to drug bust Tillamook County Sheriff’s Office Detective Andrew Christopherson conducted a traffic stop Monday, March 8, with a Honda Civic for speeding near the area of Hwy 101 / Old Mill Road. During the stop, Christopherson determined the vehicle had switched plates from another vehicle. According to the sheriff’s office, the driver was identified as Rachel Makus, formerly of Tillamook. Makus had an outstanding Oregon State Parole Board felony warrant. During a consent search of the vehicle, deputies found suspected heroin, suspected methamphetamine, drug packaging material, drug paraphernalia and several thousand dollars in cash. Makus was transported and lodged at the Tillamook County Jail and booked on charges of Unlawful Possession and Delivery of Heroin and the Parole Board warrant. Number Five Sept. 3, 2021 Man dies in hit and run crash at Fred Meyers Tillamook Police Department responded at 10:59 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 1, to the area of Hwy 101 in front of Fred Meyers to a report of a pedestrian who had been hit by a vehicle that had fled the scene. Upon arrival at 11 p.m., police found a 75-yearold man dead in the roadway. According to the police department, the crime scene was processed with the assistance of the Oregon State Police Reconstruction Team, Tillamook County Sheriff’s Office, Tillamook Fire Department, ODOT, Adventist Health Ambulance, Tillamook County District Attorney, and the Tillamook County Medical Examiner. Law enforcement was able to locate the male 26-year-old driver of the suspect vehicle who had a friend drive him back down to the crime scene to turn himself in after hearing reports of the incident on his scanner. He has been lodged at the Tillamook County Jail on recommended charges of manslaughter and felony hit and Run. The name of the deceased is being withheld pending notification of the next of kin.

Oregon State Police (OSP) troopers responded to the report of a two-vehicle head-on collision at 4:16 a.m. Sunday, Oct. 31, which occurred on Hwy 6 near milepost 8. According to OSP, preliminary investigation revealed a silver 2018 Ford F150 pickup, operated by Bradley Burton Harris of Tillamook, was westbound when, for an unknown reason, the vehicle crossed over into the eastbound lane and struck an oncoming Mazda MZ3. The black Mazda was operated by Humberto Maciel of Tillamook. Both vehicles sustained heavy damage and came to an uncontrolled rest blocking the entire highway. Maciel sustained fatal injuries and was pronounced deceased. His passenger, Breanna Maciel, was transported to Legacy Emmanuel Hospital by Life Flight helicopter with life threatening injuries. Harris fled the scene immediately after the crash but was located by police near the crash scene approximately four hours later, OSP stated. Harris was transported initially to Tillamook Regional Medical Center for injuries then later transferred to Legacy Emmanuel hospital as a trauma patient. Harris is the subject of an ongoing criminal investigation. Number Seven Nov. 10, 2021 OSP responds to rollover crash on Hwy 101 Oregon State Police (OSP)

Tillamook Volunteer Firefighters are HEROS again Tillamook Ecumenical Community organized their Christmas Basket Program again this year to help with food and gifts for individual families needing help this Christmas season. The Tillamook Volunteer Firefighters collected over 600 toys for these baskets.
Sacred Heart Catholic Church provides the use of their gym to set up tables of toys so the Sponsors of the baskets can basically shop for free for the toys needed for the children in the baskets they are sponsoring. Usually, any toys left over gets distributed to the Til-

son River, just below Mills Bridge,” said Barnett. “He decided to cross the river to fish from the other side. As he made his way across, he stumbled and fell but was able to recover and make it to the other side to fish.” According to the sheriff’s office, the man fished from the other side for a while and then made his way back across the river toward his friends. “He was crossing the river when he reached a deep point, fell over and got sucked down the river,” said Barnett. “His friends witnessed the incident and said that he was trying to get back to shore. In that part of the river, the current is actually pushing you away from shore.”
Continued from Page A2 responded to a rollover crash around 2 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 9, on Hwy 101 and Kenton Drive. According to OSP, a silver Toyota XB, driven by Diana Willner of Seaside, was southbound negotiating a left curve. The vehicle strick and bounced off the southbound guardrail, went across both lanes, struck and drove up a dirt embankment. The vehicle rolled on its side, where it came to an uncontrolled rest facing south in the northbound lane. “[Willner] was not wearing a seatbelt and had significant injuries,” the OSP reported. “[Willner] was transported by ambulance to Tillamook Hospital.” Willner was cited for driving while suspended and no insurance, OSP stated. Number Eight May 8, 2021 Homicide investigation underway as two found dead in Hebo The Tillamook County Major Crimes Team is currently working a homicide investigation on Mt. Hebo Road, in Hebo, where two adult males were found deceased on the scene. “This investigation is currently underway and family notifications are ongoing, therefore we are unable to release more information at this time. I can say that there are no suspects at large and there is no danger to the community,” said TCSO Undersheriff Matt Kelly. “We will provide more information when it is possible to do so.” Number Nine Aug. 31, 2021 Superintendent receives resignations over vaccine mandate, expects more The Tillamook School Board hosted a work session on Aug. 25 to hear from Tillamook School District staff regarding the vaccine mandate recently issued by Oregon Gov. Kate Brown. Gov. Brown’s new vaccination mandate requires that all teachers, educators, support staff, and volunteers in K-12 schools be vaccinated against COVID-19. The mandate requires those listed above to be fully vaccinated by Oct. 18 or six weeks after full FDA approval, whichever is later. “Our kids need to be in the classroom full-time, five days a week, and we have to do everything we can to make that happen,” said Brown. “While we are still learning about the Delta variant, we know from previous experience that when schools open with safety

ape Meares residents Kevin and Sarah Scaldeferri were two of twenty-some individuals who participated in the Tillamook Bay Christmas Bird Count (CBC) on Dec. 18. What is it? Well, just our county’s contribution to one of the longest running community science projects around, says Kevin. He referenced an old article from the Tillamook Pioneer that stated bird-count records for Tillamook Bay date from 1914. The data collected is used by the Audubon Society to study bird population trends. Kevin and Sarah counted birds in Cape Meares village, on/over Cape Meares Lake, and on/over Bayocean Road. They said the highlight of this year’s Christmas bird count was seeing a Blackheaded Grosbeak, which has never before been seen during the Tillamook Bay CBC. While these birds breed here in Oregon, they typically winter in Mexico and Central America. Thanks, Kevin and Sarah, for your contribution as citizen scientists! Kathy and Kevin Burke held a lovely dinner party the other evening for a group of neighbors. The dinner featured fall Chinook they had caught themselves, a
crisp salad of greens that included kale and chard, and delicious scalloped potatoes that had been made using a gluten-free recipe. Hors d’oeuvres of smoked salmon on cucumbers and crab cakes (the latter contributed by next-door neighbor BJ Byron) and desserts of blueberry pie and coffee cake rounded out the menu. Between the main course and dessert, the group of 12 played a guys vs. girls game of “fishbowl.” Haven’t heard of that game? Let me tell you about it… Each person at the table takes three squares of paper and writes down a person, a place and a thing. All the entries go in a bowl: the “fishbowl.” Then three competitions ensue. First, a member from one team takes a slip of paper from the fishbowl and gives clues as to what is written, without naming the actual

word. For instance, “North Pole” was a place someone in our group had written down. The clues were “Where Santa lives” and “Where Santa’s workshop is.” If members of the team guess correctly, the clue-giver moves on to another slip of paper. This goes on for one minute before that team’s score is tallied, then the other team gets a chance. The teams go back and forth until all the words in the fishbowl have been guessed. The second competition involves those same slips of paper, returned to the fishbowl, but this time the clue-giver pantomimes the word; no speech is allowed. The final round of the game allows the clue-giver to speak only one word (no pantomime) in getting his or her team to guess the written word or phrase. It was a fun game to play. In the interest of accurate reporting, I must say the ladies won. Thanks, Kathy and Kevin, for a fun evening of food, games and good cheer.

What’s your New Year’s plans? Ball Drop
Joe Warren Publisher/Editor
s the holiday season nears its end, the Chamber wants to give the community a reason to continue celebrating — and we don’t just mean New Year’s Eve. The nominees for the 2022 Community Awards started getting their announcements in the mail last week, so it’s finally safe to announce them here in the Chatter. This year we received more than 30 nominations across five categories, and we’ll be splitting our announcement into multiple parts, so we can give each nominee their time to shine. Each nomination is made with a narrative and often letters of support to articulate why the nominee stands out. The Awards Committee uses these to determine the final recipient for the award, which will be announced at the Community Awards Banquet, this year on January 29. As we introduce the nominees, we will share some of the background that was submitted for each one. We will start this week with the nominees for Development Project of the Year and Program of the Year. But before we get started, we want to give a quick sidenote about the Awards Committee. This group is made up of community members and past Community Award recipients. Chamber staff does not determine who will receive the award in each category. Instead, we leave the Community Awards up to, well, the community, because we trust that you know best. Now, without further ado… For Development Project of the year, the nominees are: Grocery Outlet: Tillamook’s newest grocery store, Grocery Outlet adds another low-cost but quality choice for our community in Tillamook County. The store and its local owners showed a commitment to the community by investing in the property and building a new store in the area, so it can continue to service the grocery needs of this area.

lessly over the last year putting together daily and weekly updates on the COVID cases in Tillamook County. They have led case investigations; done contact tracing; hosted free vaccine clinics and testing sites; and assisted businesses, school districts, employers and community members in answering thousands of questions about testing, quarantine guidelines, immunizations and more. These nurses and staff gave many hours of their personal time to ensure that our community stayed safe and educated. Prime +: The Prime+ program has helped bring low-barrier access to lifesaving resources for people in active substance use and seeking recovery. They have been out in the community, visiting encampments where folks are experiencing houselessness, and they’ve provided lifesaving clean needles and NarCan. Their work directly reduces the risk of death and serious illness as a result of substance use, prevents the spread of communicable diseases, and provides low-barrier access to recourse for recovery from substance use. Tillamook County Transportation District’s Pacific City Free Shuttle: The Pacific City Free Shuttle program contributes to the quality of life in Tillamook County by helping to reduce traffic and parking congestion in Pacific City and the surrounding areas. The shuttle provides free, safe rides to Pelican Pub, Twist Wine Company and other local designations. Pacific City is a popular destination for out-of-towners and locals alike, especially during the summer months. By keeping the streets and parking lots more navigable, the Pacific City Free Suttle helps keeps summertime spent in Pacific City enjoyable for all. Thank to everyone who made a nomination, and congratulations to our nominees! We’ll be back again soon with the rest of our nominees in the Business of the Year, Small Business of the Year and Citizen of the year categories, so keep your eye on the Chamber Chatter in the coming weeks.

ear Santa, I don’t know if you’re the right person to send a thank you letter to, but it’s easier than sending a separate letter to every home in Tillamook County! You see, the staff at the library is so appreciative of all the good things that happened to us this year, it seems like we can’t jump into 2022 without first expressing our gratitude. First and foremost, we want to say thank you to all our patrons who stuck with us through the many changes in procedures and safety measures we introduced in response to the ongoing COVID situation. Although all of us would have preferred to carry on with business as normal, we had to adapt be sure to keep our patrons and our employees safe. We are thankful to the public who went along with these changes, donning a mask, limiting their time in the buildings, and treating our employees with respect. We also want to give
thanks for the gift of support we received from the Library Board and the Board of County Commissioners as they reviewed and approved our carefully researched plans. None of us had been through anything like this before and it took the work of many in our organization to bring about the safety strategies we enacted throughout the different phases of the ever-changing pandemic and its variants. We are thankful for the gift of understanding as we were forced to temporarily drop our exciting in-person programming. We had to get creative in order to offer some alternative programs in the form of online storytimes, take-and-make crafts, YouTube baking tutorials, and more. We know it wasn’t the same as sitting in a room with a group of friends, but with any luck, our beloved in-person library programs will return soon. Another monumental change we are thankful for...finally ending overdue fines! Hopefully, this left our patrons with a little more change jingling in their pockets this year. We are grateful that we are able to once again offer our meeting rooms to the public! With meeting space in such short supply in Tillamook County, the public rooms are a blessing to all.

Oregon’s Climate Protection Program restores our reputation This year, Oregon regained its reputation for environmental consciousness and environmental leadership. Oregon became a model for national efforts to address global warming and the looming climate crisis in 2007 when the legislature passed and the Governor signed HB 3543. This established a greenhouse gas emissions reduction trajectory achieving 75% below 1990 levels by 2050. Unfortunately, that program was purely voluntary. As a result, polluters who were expected to reduce their emissions declined to make a serious effort to do so. Thus,
by the middle of the next decade it was clear that voluntary efforts were insufficient and regulations were necessary. Unfortunately, numerous proposals were resisted by those industries expected to reduce emissions. They countered with the false claim that regulations would torpedo the economy despite the evidence from other states with similar emissions reduction programs who boasted growing economies. Republicans in the legislature repeatedly pushed back against proposals to establish a greenhouse gas emissions reduction program, finally walking out in 2019 and 2020 to prevent action. It was only then that Governor Brown released Executive Order 20-04 charging state agencies to develop programs

that would reduce emissions, promote sequestration in natural and working lands, and address the social injustice that plagues our economy. Subsequently, some 16 state agencies embarked on the development of programs to reduce emissions within their authority. Through an arduous process involving extensive public engagement and input, the Department of Environmental Quality responded to its charge by drafting rules for a state Climate Protection Program (CPP). Following a public comment period when 7,620 comments were received, mostly urging a stronger program than that proposed, DEQ returned with a more rigorous proposal. Approved by the Environmental Quality Commission (EQC) on December 16th, this proposal demands suppliers of fossil fuel (gasoline, diesel, propane, natural gas) reduce their emissions 50% from their 2017-2019 average by 2035, and 90% by
2050. Meanwhile, stationary industrial sources individually emitting greenhouse gases totaling over the equivalent of 25,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide are required to adopt Best Available Emissions Reduction procedures. These polluters are also expected to reduce pollution 50% by 2035. With the adoption of this program, Oregon again moves to the forefront among states in addressing the climate crisis. It is little surprise that the same forces of opposition previously defeating legislative action are emerging to undermine the program and offer nonsense about how it will bankrupt Oregonians. Across the country, states have adopted greenhouse gas emissions reduction programs amid fearmongering from industry that they would undermine state economies. None has! But an Oregon Business & Industry spokesperson instantly pulled out the old deception and misinformation campaign arguing that the
Tuesday, December 28, 2021
program will cost Oregonians, without acknowledging either the huge economic and health benefits that will accrue to the state or the immeasurable cost of ongoing unabated climate change. Many Oregonians, rural and urban, know that, if left unchecked, climate change represents a crisis of alarming dimensions that will likely undermine our natural systems and biodiversity, as well as our agriculture, forests and fisheries. We know that our future depends on nations across the planet addressing this problem and also that Oregonians cannot demand others address their emissions unless we address ours. Despite these realities, Oregon Republicans and major industries seem steadfastly committed to steering us collectively over the climate cliff. They have not offered a reasonable proposal to address the problem, only providing criticism of efforts proposed by others or actually undertaken.
The CPP may not be all that we wish it were. We know, for example, that achieving the targets established via science and international agreement, require the 2050 goal become net zero emissions. We also question several components of the CPP such as the focus on increasing the biofuel content of transportation fuels, or replacing deceptively labeled natural gas with the equally deceptively labeled Renewable Natural Gas. Nevertheless, the program developed by DEQ and approved by EQC represents a huge step in the direction we need to take if we wish to leave future generations a livable planet. When we combine establishment of the CPP with the demise of the Jordan Cove project, we can end 2021 feeling Oregon is once again at the forefront for environmental protection.
home when the level of care started to decline, but she didn’t want to make such a big transition. Two weeks later I got a call from NBH announcing that they would be closing. Now we have to move her, and gratefully, I found her a room in Seaside. When we visited today, in spite of the kindness of the staff at the new place, my Mom left feeling fearful: fearful of the change, fearful of the bigger facility, fearful of getting to know new people. If CARE has known since, when was it, October or before? That they were in financial trouble why were the families of residents not informed until December, only two weeks before Christmas? A gradual transition would have been so much more compassionate and professional. I talked to one resident about his search for a new place. He said he might end up “back in the woods, where I was before I came here.” Another resident who has lived in NBH for 16 years has to go to Forest Grove, far from her family. I am appalled at the way CARE has handled this, putting unwarranted stress on the families and elderly who have trusted them. As I investigate, these suggestions from Peter Starkey stand out as needing immediate action1. A stimulus program to reimburse long term care facilities for expenses incurred due to the pandemic and staffing. 2. A dramatic (!) increase in Medicaid reimbursement that allows for facilities like CARE to offer competitive wages and benefits. 3. Regulation of medical staffing agencies that have driven up prices to take advantage of the pandemic for financial gain. I would add one of my own, communicate clearly and support our elders and their families. Most sincerely,
Master of Tillamook will be closing the Bay City Post Office, and closing all services including box service. Box holders at Bay City will need to forward their mail to a new post office box somewhere else or put up a mailbox at your home or business. It will be a lengthy process to find a new Post Master for Bay City. In the meantime the over 250 box holders many of them businesses will need to make other arrangements. There are better solutions to this problem. Certainly the refunds of unused time for current box holders and lost revenue from empty post offices boxes while searching for new Post Master plus empty building rent could be offset by temporary short hour staffing from the Tillamook post office. The last time this happened at Bay City the window was closed, parcels and accountable mail went to Tillamook, letters and notices went to the PO boxes. Why not now?

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Dear Tillamook County Democrats This is something that should make clear to every thinking Oregonian why the job of a Precinct Committeeperson (PCP) is important. Democratic PCPs who live in Senate District 16 will soon be nominating between three and five replacements for Senator Betsy Johnson, who resigned on Wednesday. County Commissioners in SD16 will then appoint a replacement for Senator Johnson from among those nominees and no others, which gives an extraordinary amount of power to PCPs. The state-level Democratic Party of Oregon is completely directing the participation of our PCPs in the candidatenomination process, but Tillamook County Democrats are responsible, as always, for getting good Democrats into those PCP positions. We have 31 empty PCP positions in SD16, and appointed PCPs are eligible to vote if we can get them certified with the county early next week. To do that, we will be appointing new PCPs via Zoom this coming Monday, December 20th, at 6:00 p.m. Are you interested in becoming one of them? All you have to do is reply to this email. Just tell us your name and where you live (so

On a different but related topic, we are also interested in finding people who would fill Betsy Johnson’s seat. Do you know someone who should be nominated? This appointment will position someone as the incumbent and presumptive winner of the next election for her seat. The future of our county and our state is at stake.

Maybe we need TCUW again When I was working for the creamery, every month 1 hours wage would be deducted from my check for the United Way. I didn’t really notice it much amongst the other deductions, but by the end of the year, it was a goodly, if not princely, sum. When I retired in 2009, that deduction went away along with my paycheck. It seems that somehow, someway Tillamook United Way also went away. I didn’t notice when, but I guess it has been a while since I saw the big thermometer sign on the courthouse lawn. The closure of the CARE homes in our county makes me think that maybe, just maybe, we would be a better community if that sign still went up every year. Jim Heffernan Tillamook

Do your homework Has Pfizer ever been found guilty in a court of law for scientific fraud? The answer is YES! Has Pfizer ever been found guilty in a court of law for bribing doctors? The answer is YES! Has Pfizer ever been found guilty in a court of law for racketeering fraud? The answer is YES! Combined penalties and settlements are roughly half of a 1% percent of the company’s annual profits that typically exceed $10 billion a year, and global sales of $67.4 billion as of 2011. And yet people are to just believe and “trust the science”. Interesting how many various elected officials representing Tillamook County have received campaign contributions from Pfizer and other powerful pharma controlling conglomerates, and are now supporting highly contentious positions, specifically unlawful mandates that benefit their donors. “For those who do not think for themselves and do not do the simple task of questioning those who THINK they are in control will forever be fooled.” Lee Smith Julie Fletcher Tillamook County

Tillamook Dentist Dr. Cyrus Javadi Announces Run for House District 32 Dr. Cyrus Javadi announced his intention to run for State Representative in House District 32 (ranging from Neskowin to Astoria on the North Coast) as a Republican in the May 2022 Primary. “The divide between the right and the left is growing so large,” said Dr. Javadi. “As a small business owner and dentist who loves this community, I still believe we can find common sense solutions without abandoning our values. That’s where most of the people in our coastal communities are at and what they want from our leaders.” Dr. Javadi runs a dental
practice in Tillamook. A father of five, he and his wife moved to Tillamook 10 years ago because of their love for the small town feel, clean air, and sense of community found on the North Oregon Coast. “I’ve never been a politician and never saw myself running for office, but I believe it’s time for people to step up and sacrifice for this state and this great country if we want to have a better tomorrow,” continued Dr. Javadi.

Dial 211 or visit 211info. org/em-shelters to find warming centers listed by county and updated as information is shared. When necessary to be outdoors, limit exposure time and wear warm layers. Know the signs to prevent frostbite and hypothermia. Travel safely – know before you go Check weather and road conditions in advance at tripcheck.com or call 511. Share your travel route before you travel and be sure to pack water, food, warm clothes and an emergency kit. Be patient and allow for extra travel time – review winter weather travel tips from ODOT. Be aware of power hazards – heat the home safely Carbon monoxide kills: Never use a generator, grill, camp stove or other gasoline, propane, natural gas or charcoal-burning devices inside a home, garage, basement, crawlspace or any partially enclosed area. Locate the unit away from doors, windows and vents that could allow carbon monoxide to come indoors. The primary hazards to avoid when using alternate sources for electricity, heating or cooking are carbon monoxide poisoning, electric shock and fire. Communicating during outages Snow, ice and wind can damage cell towers, making for challenging communications via mobile phones and the Internet; use a batteryoperated radio to listen to public broadcast stations for updates. Outages may be widespread and power may not be back up for some time; check in on family and neighbors to ask who needs assistance and get them the help they need. Be aware of flood and landslide warnings Snow and ice accumulation can trigger debris flows and landslides in steep terrain, and the risk is higher in wildfire burn areas. Be alert when driving; embankments along roadsides may fail, sending drought-stricken trees and debris onto the road. Protect pets – as members of the family, emergency plans should include actions to keep pets safe Keep pets inside when the temperature drops. If they are outdoors for any reason, make sure they’re protected by a dry, draftfree shelter and routinely check the water dish to make sure the water is fresh and unfrozen. Remove common poisons like antifreeze and de-icing salt.

Benefits of gratitude, mindfulness and meditation Michelle Jenck M.Ed. Community Well-Being Director Adventist Health Tillamook, jenckmd@ah.org
I
t’s hard to be anxious, sad or angry when we are counting our blessings. This makes sense but it can be hard to see bright spots when life is throwing curve balls at us every day. The real curve ball is that, by practicing gratitude, we can actually avoid becoming anxious, sad or angry when faced with challenges. There is some pretty amazing science behind why practicing gratitude improves our mental and physical well-being. According to Justin Hersom, LCSW at Adventist Health Tillamook, “it is natural for us to have a slight negative perception in life, as it helps us stay safe.” He goes on to say, however, that people tend to “over-practice” negative perception and then struggle to notice positive things in life. “Learning to stay present inhibits anxiety and learning to develop gratitude shifts neuropathways which can allow us to experience more fulfilling interactions and events in life.” As part of his practice, Justin often guides clients toward gratitude practices, such as daily gratitude journals of 3 to 4 things a person is grateful for that day, no matter how big or small; “and it can’t be the same thing daily.” He points out. “Sometimes we are not in a place to experience gratitude. In that case, working with a mindful belief system, we can just try to have the desire to be grateful.” Mindfulness can mean different things to different people. Justin explains to clients that being mindful is an intentional focus on the present, defined as now to the past 8 seconds, without judging
our emotions but just accepting what we are experiencing in the moment. These good feelings are not just fleeting. A regular practice of gratitude or mindfulness, especially if we include deep breathing, can be a game changer when it comes to our health. Just as it takes time and intentionality to build other healthy habits, over time, a regular practice of mindfulness can change the way the body functions, reversing the negative impacts of chronic stress. As part of his Lifestyle Medicine program at Adventist Health Tillamook, Dr. Ben Douglas shares that “patients who struggle with anxiety or depression often tell me they have trouble sleeping at night because their brain won’t be quiet. Mindfulness and deep breathing are techniques that can teach your brain that it is ok to be quiet and go to sleep.” Health Impacts of Deep Breathing Practices “Take a deep breath. You got this.” This is the advice my son’s baseball coach gave each player as they approached the batter’s box. What do we do when we have to speak publicly and are nervous? We take a deep breath. What do we tell a child who is crying, upset or angry and trying to tell us what happened? Yep. “Take a deep breath.” We know deep breathing helps us calm down in stressful situations. The reality is that most of us live in a chronic state of stress. This deep breathing helps regulate the body’s stress response. And, just like a baseball player’s batting average gets better with practice, our bodies adapt to a regular mindfulness practice in ways that make the body more efficient and healthier.
Roasted and Spiced Chickpeas Prep Time: 5 minutes Ingredients: - Nonstick cooking spray - 1 can (15.5 ounce) garbanzo beans (rinsed, drained, and dried well) - 2 tbsp olive oil (divided) - 1 tsp ground cinnamon - 1 tsp cumin - ¼ tsp chili powder - ¼ tsp salt (optional) - 1 ½ tbsp Splenda brown sugar blend Directions: 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. 2. In a medium bowl mix together garbanzo beans, 1 Tbsp. olive oil, cinnamon, cumin, chili powder and salt. 3. Spread garbanzo bean mixture evenly on baking sheet. Bake for 40-45 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes, until beans are crispy and dry.
A growing body of research shows that mindfulness and deep breathing techniques make positive changes to virtually every system of the body. When performed consistently, deep breathing practices have been shown to lower blood pressure, reduce stress, anxiety and pain and offer many other mental and physical benefits. When our nervous system is calm, we feel safe and are better able to handle stress when it comes our way. We can keep things in perspective, avoid overreacting emotionally and have healthier relationships with others. This practice can also improve our executive brain function and memory. This is because chronic stress engages a part of the brain that “turns off” our planning and organizing brain (pre-frontal cortex) and “turns on” the fight-flight or freeze part of our brain (amygdala). So how does it work exactly? There is a muscle in our body, the diaphragm, that is like a shelf between the heart, lungs and other organs. There is also a long nerve, called the Vagus nerve, that connects to all those organs. When we breathe deeply, the movement of the diaphragm and the activation of the Vagus nerve, shifts our body and mind from “fight-flight-freeze” to “rest and digest.” Our heart rate decreases, we get more oxygen to all the parts of the body, including the brain, and levels of stress hormones like cortisol are reduced. All of these changes reduce inflammation in the body which can prevent chronic diseases like heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes and cancer. It might feel awkward at first to try a mindfulness practice but, just like with other new activities, it gets easier with regular practice.
4. Remove from oven and place hot beans in a medium bowl. Add 1 Tbsp. olive oil and Splenda brown sugar blend. Mix well. 5. Pour beans on parchment paper and allow to cool for 20 minutes.

watch?v=6_rh0uIQajc In Breath: Deep, slow inhale through the nose, fully inflating the lungs, belly visibly rising/extending for 3-4 seconds. Out Breath: Slow, controlled outbreath through the nose, belly draws in, diaphragm up, fully exhaling for 5-7 seconds In his practice, Justin Hersom encourages clients to practice the cycles of inbreaths and outbreaths for 3
to 5 minutes at a minimum. If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, chronic pain or are experiencing other mental health concerns, please contact your primary care provider.
