Oregon’s Congressional Districts push for Port funding
COVID-19 update: Digital vaccine record being developed for Oregon
Request includes $62 million for Tillamook County
O
Staff
regon’s congressional delegation is pushing for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to include funding for Oregon’s port infrastructure as the agency implements the recently passed Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act of 2021 (IIJA). The request includes $62 million for Tillamook Bay and Bar South Jetty head and trunk repairs to support the Port of Garibaldi and prevent additional loss of life events. U.S. Senator Jeff Merkley and Representative Peter DeFazio (OR04), the Chair of the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, along with Senator Ron Wyden and Representatives Earl Blumenauer (OR-03), Kurt Schrader (OR-05), Suzanne Bonamici (OR-01), and Cliff Bentz (OR-02), have sent a letter to the Army Corps and the Office of Management and Budget, requesting allocated funds be set aside to ensure federally authorized waterways and navigation infrastructure in the State of Oregon are properly maintained, which is especially critical to Oregon’s small ports. “The COVID-19 pandemic has hit rural communities and small, commercial ports with multiple economic losses from higher safety and sanitation costs, shelter-in-place orders, tenants seeking lease deferral, a severe downturn of the commercial fishing markets, and ports were not eligible to receive much of the relief funds,” the lawmakers wrote. “These ports are a source of jobs, recreation, and tax benefit to the state and local community and additional operations and maintenance funding is critical for the federal channels and structures that serve these communities.” Oregon is home to export gateways, inland barging terminals, and small commercial and recreational fishing ports, all 23 of which play a significant role in Oregon’s economy. The IIJA is a landmark piece of legislation that will invest in land and water infrastructure, the labor force, broadband infrastructure, and the economy. It’s critical that as this legislation is implemented, Oregon’s small ports—many of which have years of deferred maintenance needs—are able to access and benefit from the funding made available by IIJA, the Oregon congressional delegation states in a release. The letter includes funding requests for elements, such dredging, maintenance of jetties and canal locks, fish passages, and other infrastructure needed to maintain navigation via Oregon’s rivers and ports. Merkley and DeFazio said that every lock and dam on the Columbia River have long-overdue additional maintenance needs.

The first ‘first responders’: What it’s like to work at Tillamook 911 T
Hilary Dorsey Staff Writer
illamook County Emergency Communications District (Tillamook 911) answers all 911 and non-emergency calls throughout Tillamook County. They are the first ‘first responders’ to emergencies. Administrator Tiffany Miller said there is no typical day at the dispatch center, as the center answers a wide range of calls, such as a complaint regarding a barking dog to a request for help requiring CPR instructions over the phone. “The only requirement to work here is you have to have either your GED or high school diploma, you have to be 18 years of age and you cannot have any disqualifying criminal history,” Miller said. Applicants go through the application process, testing and interview. If you make it through those steps, you must go through a criminal background investigation and then a medical and drug screening. The center provides all on-thejob training, Miller added. There is a three-week academy required to become a dispatcher, which is paid for by the state and the dispatch center. “We’ll also train to use our medical and fire protocol software,” Miller said. “That’s all on-the-job training.” The dispatch center is the first ‘first responder.’ To get access to a police officer or medic, the center is the first contact people call and receive instructions from. The
(Standing) 911 Dispatch Supervisor Kayla Lizotte and dispatch trainee Nikki Thun go over procedures at Thun’s desk at the Tillamook 911 Center in Tillamook Friday. Photo by Joe Warren center acts as the ‘middle man’ point of contact between the public and the emergency agencies. “The dispatchers often go unnoticed, unrecognized, and we’re not really known for what we are,” Miller said. “When everybody calls 911 or they call what they know as the non-emergency line, they’re actually contacting the dispatch center. They’re not contacting that police department. They’re not contacting the sheriff’s office. They’re not contacting their fire department. They’re not contacting the hospital or the ambulance department. They’re contacting the dispatch center.” Miller said the dispatch center is its own agency and is separate from everyone else. They reach out to the respective agencies people request assistance from.

They also assist those responders to get them additional help if needed. The ability to help the community each day is the best part of working at the dispatch center, Miller said. “Every day is different, and I never know what the day is going to hold, which keeps my day interesting,” Miller said. “We also work very closely with not only each other but with all our partner agencies. We have created very tight bonds with our co-workers, fire, EMS, and law enforcement.” The center has eight full time dispatchers and has openings for two more positions. To apply, visit

illamook County Health Department reported during a community update Tuesday, Dec. 7, 18 COVID-19 cases over the weekend from Dec. 3 to Dec. 5, 35 cases for the 7-day case count from Nov. 28 through Dec. 4, and 63 cases for the 14-day case count from Nov. 21 through Dec. 4. There was a total of 168 cases for the month of November. There have been 47 deaths in the county, with 38 of those individuals unvaccinated, eight fully vaccinated and one with no vaccine record. Ed Colson, emergency preparedness coordinator, reported two confirmed outbreaks in the county and 11 pending investigation. COVID-19 testing remains available at the health center’s acute care clinic, located at 2111 8th St. in Tillamook. The clinic is open 1-5 p.m. Monday through Friday. Appointments are required. Call 503-8423900 to schedule an appointment. Testing is also available at Adventist Health and Rinehart Clinic. The health department’s walk-in clinic is still at the Tillamook County Fairgrounds convention center from 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays and from 1-5 p.m. Wednesdays. “We ask that you continue to maintain physical distancing of at least 6 feet from other individuals,” Colson said. “Masks are still required in all indoor public areas on public transit, K-12 schools and health care settings for all those two years old and older.” Colson said a voluntary digital vaccine record is planned. Oregon Health Authority is developing a voluntary vaccination verification tool. “The digital vaccine record called OR Verified will provide people vaccinated in Oregon with an electronic way to access their own personal COVID-19 vaccination record and then share that vaccination status with businesses that ask for proof for verification,” Colson said. “Many businesses and venues now require proof of vaccination for entry so this tool will give people a convenient option rather than using their paper record.” Oregon is currently testing its verification tool with communities that are disproportionately impacted by COVID-19 and are gathering consumer feedback to ensure the tool is accessible and convenient for everyone in Oregon, Colson added. “Oregon Health Authority anticipates making its voluntary tool available for free for anyone in Oregon who chooses to use it in the spring of 2022,” Colson said.

Swam of earthquakes rumble off Oregon Coast
Now open
Jeremy C. Ruark Country Media
A swarm of undersea earthquakes ranging in magnitude from 3.2 to nearly 6 occurred hundreds of miles off the Oregon Coast over the past several days. The quakes began Tuesday, Dec. 7 and as of Friday, Dec. 10 nearly 90 tremors were recorded approximately 200 to 300 miles west of the Newport-Coos Bay area and approximately 10 kilometers deep, according to the Office of Oregon Emergency Management (OMI). In the following conversation, OMI Geological Hazards Program Coordinator Althea Rizzo gives us specific insight into the earthquakes and what they mean. Headlight Herald: What is the significance of this latest swarm of quakes, what is causing them and is it a warning of a massive quake ahead? Althea Rizzo: This is an area with a lot of earthquakes, even more than the San Andreas fault. The Pacific Plate is pushing past the Juan de Fuca Plate and this causes frequent fairly small earthquakes. We are in a time of increased activity, but these earthquakes don’t pose a risk to Oregonians. The area of

This illustrates the Cascadia Subduction Zone. Courtesy illustration seismicity is very far away from the Cascadia Subduction Zone, so there is no increased risk from a Cascadia event. Headlight Herald: You have told us in previous interviews that the area off the Southern Oregon Coast is a frequent zone for earthquakes. Is it the Blanco Fault zone and what is the difference between this zone and the larger more violent zone that we have been told could lead to a massive earthquake? Rizzo: Yes, this is the Blanco Fracture Zone. The Cascadia Subduction Zone is the one we worry about. Subduction zones, where one plate dives underneath
another, can cause very large earthquakes and tsunamis. Headlight Herald: We have heard that there is an active undersea volcano in the same area and that is what is causing the swarm of quakes. Is that true? Rizzo: This area does have thermal vents, but there is no specific volcano in the area. There have been submarine volcanos on the western edge of the Juan de Fuca plate several hundred miles away. Headlight Herald: Do you find that despite these quakes and education campaigns to help get people be prepared, the reality is that many are still not prepared?
Rizzo: Any time we have earthquakes that catch the public’s attention is a great time to remind folks that earthquakes can happen at any time. It’s important for families and households be prepared to be on their own for a couple of weeks. Even just talking about possible hazards is a start to being Cascadia ready. Headlight Herald: What is your bottom-line advice to folks about being prepared? Rizzo: It doesn’t take a big earthquake to need to be prepared; Oregon also gets floods, fires, ice storms

With a new congressional district added to the state and Congressman Peter DeFazio announcing he is retiring after 36 years in office, voters will choose at least two new members of Congress. But perhaps the biggest race on the ballot will be for governor. With incumbent Gov. Kate Brown ineligible to run for another term due to term limits, there has been a free for all as candidates have announced their intent to run. At least 28 candidates have either filed paperwork with the secretary of state or have formed exploratory committees to run for the governor’s seat, with both major parties equally represented in the number of challengers. Here is a brief look at the candidates who have announced the intend to run so far.

n Swarm Continued from Page A2 and hurricane force winds. Most people would love to be a little more prepared for emergencies and disasters but haven’t made the time or don’t know where to start. Often, just taking the first step toward getting prepared is the hardest part. The holidays can be a great time to introduce low-cost/no-cost preparedness into the lives of friends and family. Some ideas include: Make a Plan. The most important first step to disaster preparedness is having a plan. FEMA offers several free preparedness products that can be downloaded or ordered from its website. Stock an Emergency Kit. Emergency kits are critical when disaster strikes. Help your loved ones get started on theirs with a few essentials: Flashlights and extra batteries, portable phone chargers and manual can openers are all necessary items that make great stocking stuffers. Include the Kids. OEM has published several Dark Horse Comics describing what to do during specific disasters. These can be obtained through County Emergency Management Offices, or you can download them on OEM’s website. Most kids

Print out the website on a holiday card and add it to the stocking, or take a moment to sign them up when they come over for holiday celebrations. Create community. Delivering cookies to your neighbors? Use this time to chat about your emergency plans. This would also be an excellent time to offer to run essential errands for neighbors who are older, have mobility issues or are at increased risk for severe illness. Headlight Herald: What would be best online re-
sources for folks to visit for more details about Oregon earthquakes and how to best prepare? Rizzo: Visit https://www. oregon.gov/oem/hazardsprep/ Pages/Individual-Preparedness.aspx Headlight Herald: Feel free to add any other comments you might have. Rizzo: It’s important to know that you can be better prepared for emergencies with a little planning. Preparedness doesn’t have to be expensive. Start by looking around your home for things you already and have get them organized. Earthquakes don’t have a season, but winter storms are coming.

jazz saxophonist, flutist and composer Rob Scheps on Sunday, December 19th, starting at 3PM. Scheps is one of the world’s leading jazz players, having performed with Ray Charles, Linda Ronstadt, Liza Manelli, The Teptations and Buddy Rich. Joining Rob are two of the most in-demand young players on today’s Portland jazz scene: painist Wes Georgiev, and bassist Patrick Golitchnik. This world class trio will play cool jazz versions of holiday favorites including Christmas songs, carols, and Chanukah music.

Bay City prepardness: Wildfires, flooding, landslides, earthquates, tsunami, tornado As part of preparing for these events, the Bay City Emergency Preparedness Committee and the Public Works crew recently completed construction of the 2nd emergency supply storage shed. The shed will store some emergency supplies in case of these major emergencies. The Landing Restaurant in Bay City graciously donated delicious lunches for the work crew. They understand as a local business that being prepared for all hazards is important for our community. The Bay City Emergency Preparedness Committee is working towards teaching citizens and businesses how they can prepare themselves for emergencies. Major disasters can be much too big
for small town governments and emergency responders to handle alone. Citizens and businesses that plan and prepare effectively for such emergencies are able to take care of themselves and their neighborhoods which allows emergency personnel to focus on critical lifesaving and immediate emergency needs. In the case of large earthquakes such as those that occur along the Cascadia Subduction Zone just off the coast, emergency responders would be needing to concentrate on critical tasks such as rescuing people from damaged buildings and fighting fires, for example. The Bay City emergency preparedness committee meets on the third Monday of the month at 5:30 at the Bay City Community Center. All
are welcome and encouraged to get involved. For more information call City Hall at 503-377-2288. Helen Wright, City Councilor and Committee Chair has been gathering donations for the 1-gallon emergency buckets that will be delivered to all residents and businesses in Bay City next year. Donations have included small first aid kits from the Pacific Seafood, and personal items from a local resident. Bay City is looking for other items that you can donate at City Hall, such as non-perishable food, toothbrush and tooth paste, cards, water purification tablets, etc. Be prepared, not scared! Get involved with your local emergency preparedness efforts.

Boosters now available for 16-years and older The Western States Scientific Safety Review Workgroup completed its review of the federal process Thursday, Dec. 9, and recommends expanding booster dose eligibility to 16- and 17-year-olds at least six months after they have completed their primary vaccination series. The Oregon Health Authority is informing health care
providers that the administration of booster doses for individuals 16 and older can begin. “It’s great news that now even more Oregonian adolescents are eligible for booster shots,” Governor Kate Brown said. “We know the measures that are effective in protecting against COVID-19 and variants: vaccinations, boosters, and masks. These measures are key to ending the pandemic and keeping our friends and loved ones safe.” Earlier on Dec. 9, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) authorized expanding booster shot eligibility for 16and 17-year olds, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) affirmed
that decision. The Workgroup reviewed and affirmed that federal decision. Oregon, Washington, and Nevada joined California’s COVID-19 Scientific Safety Review Workgroup in October of last year. The workgroup, made up of nationallyacclaimed scientists with expertise in immunization and public health, has concurrently and independently reviewed the FDA’s actions related to COVID-19 vaccines. It will continue to evaluate other COVID-19 vaccines as they go through the federal process.

Anne Couch Turner 1939 - Nov. 24, 2021
nne Couch Turner died in her home surrounded by the people and dogs who lover her dearly. She was grateful that her last wishes were fulfilled. Anne was well known for welcoming smile and infectious attitude. She loved helping people, from hemming Warren’s pants to answering phones for many years for Toy n Joy. Anne loved to travel and was lucky enough to have the opportunity to enjoy many memorable experiences. June 1987 Anne and her husband Don went on a tour of Russia. Russia was newly opened up to tourism. During her tour her bus drove through Chernobyl and experienced the echoing quiet from the empty buildings. There was laundry still hanging from clotheslines. She said she ate Borscht

with every meal. One of the interesting things they saw was a Vodka vending machine outside a small grocery store. Anne and her husband were very active in HACO (Historical Automobile Club) The owned and restored a variety of antique cars, but their favorite was the American Batam. One summer they decided to drive their 1940 two seat Bantam to Butler Pennsylvania. Anne, Don and their two Pug dogs drove 40 mph across many states in their tiny car. There is so much more to the story... Anne’s adventuresome spirit led to some interesting places and experiences.

For more information about the impacts of problem gambling on public health I would highly recommend the Oregon Health Authority’s (OHA) Impacts of Problem Gambling on Public Health, this document can be accessed by visiting: www.oregon.gov/oha/HSD/ Problem-Gambling/Documents/Resource-Booklet.pdf . Create responsible guidelines: Not all types of gambling is considered problem gambling. People choose to gamble in many ways, and some people choose not to gamble at all. If you are at the legal age to gamble and choose to do so, it would be beneficial to create responsible gambling guidelines. Responsible guidelines to consider include: setting a time and dollar limit, avoid using substances while gambling, creating a healthy life balance, gamble only for entertainment, and never gamble to escape problems.

ach year, there are some well-meaning adults who purchase lottery products as gifts for underage youth. These types of gifts are harmful and can increase the likelihood that youth will experience problems with gambling later in life. Problem gambling behavior is when a person continues to gamble despite negative life consequences that are a result of gambling. Negative consequences include: relationship strain, loss of financial security, loss of work, co-occurring substance use, and public health ailments. The good news is that these negative consequences can be avoided by utilizing problem gambling prevention strategies. Prevention strategies include: Learn about the health and social impacts of problem gambling: Problem gambling can have many harmful impacts on a person’s life, in-
lem gambling warning signs: Common problem gambling warning signs include: spending more time gambling, increasing betting sizes, creating distance from family and friends, using funds that were reserved for other purposes to gamble, decreased desire to participate in activities that do not involve gambling, or gambling to escape problems. Have conversations with adults about gambling: If you notice somebody you know is exhibiting problem gambling warning signs, start a conversation with them about gambling. To get the best results it would be helpful to show concern, let them know which warning signs you have observed, discuss the health and social impacts of problem gambling, and provide them with information about free and confidential problem gambling treatment services.

his column is for all the book lovers out there who get much more excited about packing reading material for vacation than clothing for the trip. So, who else is out of practice in packing for a getaway? It has been so long since I have gone anywhere that when I began to prep for a little five-day retreat, I found myself just staring at my suitcase, not knowing how to get started. First of all, there was the cosmetic case. After nearly two years of sitting idle, most of what

bought that purse for me. We had trouble getting things we needed, like shoes and coats that fit. I understood that these gifts were from people who didn’t even know us, had no connection to us, but nevertheless wanted us to have a happy Christmas. It showed me that there were good people in the world, who cared because they were kind. It was a living example of the teachings of Christ, to love your neighbor as yourself, or in our case, to love your neighbor’s children as your own. To feed and clothe strangers, to love the least of these…that was us. We were the least of these, and yet, we were loved. It never really leaves you, the feeling of being poor. But neither does the feeling of gratitude, for being cared for and blessed by the kindness of strangers. I thank everyone in our community who has contributed to Christmas for a child. I guarantee that you are making a difference in that child’s life, not only this year, but in the years to come. Your gift for a child may be a memory she holds dear for 50 years. You are informing her experience of the world as a decent place where love prevails. You are investing in her ability to grow into someone who cares for others, as you have cared for her. You are role modeling the teachings of Christ, and after all, isn’t that what Christmas is about? And so, the ripples of goodness you spread this Christmas will be moving in the world generations from now. Thank you and Merry Christmas.

had the pleasure of attending the Pacific CityNestucca Valley Chamber of Commerce Spirit of Giving Awards Luncheon and Holiday Giving event in Pacific City this week. Attendees were asked to bring gifts for local children, which were piled high around a Christmas tree. The Nestucca Valley High School choir performed Christmas carols, exceptional citizens and businesses were honored, and local non-profit organizations were invited to talk about the good works they are performing in the community. I was moved listening to the South County Food Pantry talk about providing food to 45 local families twice monthly; the Nestucca Valley Backpack Program sends food home from school for students in need, and the Nestucca Valley Lions Club is putting together Christmas baskets with a holiday meal and gifts for children. As I sat there listening, I was overwhelmed with gratitude for the generosity of our community, and gratitude for the generosity that my siblings and I received, nearly 50 years ago, when we were needy children. My brother and sister and I grew up in extreme poverty. Our dad was in prison and our mom suffered from depression and anxiety, alcoholism, and addiction to the pills she was prescribed. She turned her life around later, to her great credit, but when we were young, she was stricken.
In those years, her grasp on life was very tenuous. She couldn’t work. We were on welfare and food stamps, which almost covered our basic needs. It was a job to stretch the food stamps to last through the month. Mom managed, but often by the end of the month we were down to powdered milk and commodity goods and ground horse, which was cheaper than beef. There was nothing left over for a Christmas dinner. Having next to nothing makes one grateful in a way that abundance never can. We awaited the Christmas delivery of a food box and gifts from the Toy and Joy Makers with great anticipation. If we received a canned ham and a tin of yams, green beans, and a box of Jell-O, that’s what we had for Christmas, and we were thrilled. I can’t overstate how excited we were to see what was in that box. When we got mandarin oranges and pineapple rings, we were over the moon! Candy canes! It was like a Christmas miracle in a box. We received gifts from Portland firefighters, who took in donations of used toys and refurbished them. Wooden blocks and metal trucks and books! We didn’t care that they weren’t new. Some years those we the only gifts we received. I vividly recall receiving a pretty, white purse with a black bow one Christmas when I was about seven. It was so extravagant, that I was afraid to use it. I just looked at it, marveled over it. There was no scenario where my mom could have

was in there was either dried up or expired. After restocking those items, I started to decide what reading material I should take along. First to go into the cloth grocery bag was the current David Sedaris book I was reading. It is a thick one, but I needed to finish it because there is a list of people waiting for that title. Oh, but if I finish that one, I’ll need something else to read. I picked two novels off my “waiting-to-be-read” pile and added them to my bag. But then there is the big new Beatles coffee table book called The Beatles - Get Back - the companion to the epic documentary now showing on Disney+. Sure, it is big and bulky, but a vacation might be the perfect time to read this giant book. And it is time to start travel planning for 2022, so I threw in a couple books about Pacific Northwest itineraries, one about Arizona, and another about Disneyland. That should about do it... but wait! What if I want a little light reading? I grabbed some recent issues of Backpacker Magazine and National Geographic. With those additions, I had officially outgrown the cloth grocery bag, so I switched to a big, cavernous backpack. That’s when I noticed a book that I just picked up from Powells about making collage art. That has to come along. Oh, and let’s take the book about hiking the Oregon Coast
Trail. Oops, almost forgot the Young Adult novel that’s getting all the buzz...I finally got to the top of the library hold list on that one, so I better not dilly dally on that one. I managed to get the backpack zipped but it weighed more than both my grandkids combined! Then I realized, I had a problem. I just love books too much! This problem runs in my family. My brain popped up a memory of when I took my brother and his two teenagers on an overnight hiking trip to the bottom of the Grand Canyon. It is a grueling 10-mile trip from the rim, down to the depths where the Colorado River is still at work carving out the canyon. As a frequent hiker of this national park, I had given my family lots of advice on what to bring along and what to leave at home. The optimal experience comes from hiking as lightweight and carefree as possible. As we reached the bottom in 100-degree temperatures, I noticed my oldest nephew massaging his shoulders where his backpack had been digging in for the last ten miles. Then he opened his pack and took out a HUGE text book for his school classes! I started to laugh...until I saw that this was one of five big books he toted all the way down to the bottom of the Grand Canyon! I guess someone missed all my helpful packing hints and the poor guy had to carry that heavy pack all the way back to the rim of the canyon the next day. Anyway, my five-day getaway is now almost over and did I read everything I took along? Nope. Not even close. I didn’t even finish the Sedaris book! But next time, I’m going to travel much lighter by putting all my vacation reading material on a Kindle. I promise.

Congratulations to Mike Smith’s parents, Dave and Doris Smith, on a very special occasion: their 75th wedding anniversary, the so-called diamond anniversary. Doris was just 16 when they married, and Dave was 19. As their grandson Mikiah told his grandmother, only one-tenth of one percent of the population reaches that milestone. The family celebrated together at a large church in Tigard on Dec. 11. Wishing you continued good health and happiness, Mr. and Mrs. Dave Smith! We wish Olli Ollikainen continued progress as he recovers from a partial knee

surgery last month. We look forward to Olli returning to full strength; after all, he is an important part of the volunteer firefighter force here in Cape Meares. Get well soon, Olli! I had a nice report from the Klobases on their recent island vacation to French Polynesia. They left Nov. 19 and returned Dec. 6, but their luggage apparently wasn’t aware of the schedule; it got lost both going there and coming back! Spike had not taken carry-on luggage, but she sported one of Salty Raven’s sturdy t-shirts and was able to last the couple of days until their luggage
caught up with them. They liked the Marquesas islands the best, although Bora Bora and Moorea were beautiful to see as well, with stunningly high, craggy peaks. They were tested for COVID five times during their travels; the islands themselves have a population that is 89% vaccinated. They had a delay when a fellow passenger had a heart attack and had to be taken to the only island that had a hospital, Nuku Hiva. The flight home from San Francisco to Portland was spectacular, seeing the snowy peaks of the Cascades and the brilliant blue of Crater Lake. But nothing was as good as
coming home to peaceful Cape Meares. Planning a large holiday gathering? Here’s a suggestion to keep your attendees safe: Ask each person to take a home COVID test within 24 hours of the event. The test kits are now readily available at local pharmacies and cost about $24 for two tests. They are quick and easy to use; I took a home test before Thanksgiving, to make sure my sniffles were just a cold. Our son suggested this strategy for our 30-person family Christmas Smorgasbord. I think it’s a good idea, so I’m passing it along. Happy and healthy holidays!

sure to send them a message if you are able to help our town. You know, it does take a village. And what a great way to meet others in the community. My new friend, Mary Effinger, and former owner of the Upper Crust Pizza, called me with some sad news. Joanne McClave passed away in Rocklin, California on November 28th. Joanne had been the owner of the Skin Sensation Spa for many years, which was originally in Tillamook, then moved to Manzanita. She was known as a generous, kind woman and loved making her clients beautiful. Think of Joanne in your prayers and know that she is now along side her husband, Jack. She sounds like a lovely lady. I got a note from Myrna Riley and Dottie Shyduik of the Rockaway Beach City Beautification and they would like to thank all the folks that helped make our town festive for this holiday season. Here goes… thank you to volunteers Sandy and Calvin Johnson, John and Beverly Goertzen, Renee Young Kolin, Georgeanne Zedrick and Mayor Sue Wilson. These folks all helped make the Christmas Snowmen, stars, candy canes and lollipops. Now, wouldn’t you love to volunteer for activities such as these? You how to now.
And yes, our town is full of merriment and wonder! And it does take a village. The Library’s holiday gift tables are out and there are lots of gifts and decorations available to purchase. This is one of the libraries fundraisers and you pay by donation. Shopping here will help both you and the library. The donations help cover monthly costs. You know, this is a great way to buy a hostess gift or a Christmas gift. And better than that, you can teach your child about the joys of giving without costing them a fortune. And this is truly the best gift of all. The Salty Strings Ukulele Group would love to have you join us. We keep our jams simple, just fun songs and our instruments. All levels of expertise are welcome for accompanying our group. Bring your instrument of choice, some jingle bells, kazoos and your lovely voices. The more the merrier. Ukulele music is fun! We meet up every Tuesday, from 1-3 PM at the Rockaway Beach City Hall. Hope to see you soon. “Christmas is not a time nor a season, but a state of mind. To cherish peace and goodwill, to be plenteous in mercy, is to have the real spirit of Christmas.” That’s Rockaway Beach, “Sugar Coated.”

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
What did you expect?
I heard that the Commissioner’s meeting 12-8-21 was disrupted by a group of people who refused to don masks and that the police were asked to escort them out. My reaction was, “No, that must be a rumor. That wouldn’t happen in Tillamook. We’re “law-abiden’ folk”.” Sadly, I was wrong. What I wanted to dismiss as rumor, turned out to be fact. What’s become of us? Our forebears suffered and sacrificed every day of their lives to build this wonderful country. Today, we snivel, whimper and whine about the inconvenience of wearing a mask indoors. If this is the stuff we’re made of, I do not rate our prospects for the future very highly. Jim Heffernan Tillamook

Open letter to the Tillamook County Board of Education Something in my heart and soul was telling me that masking children all day at school was wrong. Then I read several wellrun studies from mainstream entities (i.e., the Cato Institute, November 8, 2021 • Working Paper No. 64 ) showing the ineffectiveness of masks in school-like settings, and my brain told my heart and soul that they were right. I propose the Tillamook County School Board allocate several thousand dollars to hiring a private sector constitutional lawyer and/or medical professional to stand up for our children in the courts and get those dirty, useless, smilehiding masks off our children’s faces!! ! Oregon is one of only a handful of states masking their children at school. To me, that is an international embarrassment, and not in-line with the freedom-loving, civil rightsrespecting Oregon I knew twenty years ago. Oregon led the way in supporting gay rights and gay marriage. We were one of the first states to legalize marijuana. Our free speech laws are the envy of the world. Even in Democrat-run Oregon, the 2nd Amendment has been well-respected. Oregon has a rich history of standing up for individual rights and freedoms. Today, Oregon is a global leader in fascism, communism

and government overreach, leading the charge into unscientific and unconstitutional medical tyranny, with most of our elected officials shamelessly ignoring the U.S. Bill of Rights, the U.S. Constitution and the Nuremberg Code. Instead, our leaders are doing the bidding of Big Pharma, Big Tech, and the Center For Disease Control. (Control it they do!)! ! It’s becoming more and more clear that the likely origin of Covid19 was the bioweapons lab in Wuhan, China, not from somebody eating a bat from the food market down the street. (That fact has always been a kind of ‘duh’ for me, but I’ve spent years as an anti-war and environmental writer and filmmaker digging for truth, so I very much understand how powerful, criminal elements in the public and private sectors work to hide the truth, to cover their crimes). I invite you to read a Newsweek article dated April 2020 (one month after the first shutdown), and you can see how I arrived at my ‘duh’ early on. You see, in 2014 Anthony Fauci wanted to do gain-offunction research on bat coronaviruses in the United States. Obama said ‘hell no’, so Fauci and the NIH took millions of taxpayer dollars (your money) to the bio-weapons lab in Wuhan, China and did the research there. For those who don’t know, enhancing viruses gainof-function is considered extremely dangerous by the medical community. The research involves making viruses more contagious and/or more deadly by ‘teaching’ them to overcome obstacles such as immunity, and, vaccines. (boosters forever?) Call me crazy, but when it comes to pandemic solutions, I’m not too interested in listening to the guy who let this virus out of the lab in the first place, a guy with deep, very deep, connections to the pharmaceutical industry, which has been given over a trillion of our tax dollars for their apparently ineffective vaccines. (again, boosters forever?) If you think money isn’t driving most of this tyranny, think again. Why are 28-million American children, who enjoy a 99.9% survival rate and who barely get sick when they
contract covid, being pushed, prodded, and mandated to get the vaccine? Money. Why are children being mandated to wear masks all day at school when they are the least-likely group to have any covid issues whatsoever? Money. The teachers’ unions wanted to mask the kids, because it’s the elderly teachers with tenure that are afraid of getting covid, not the schoolchildren. These elderly bureaucrats don’t mind abusing our children and suspending the logic of science in order feel more safe themselves. These elderly teachers have apparently chosen the wrong career, and they should be replaced with young, robust teachers who are not at risk of or afraid of covid. Those young teachers are the brave, caring, smart folks I want teaching my 13-year old daughter at Neahkahnie Middle School. I grew up the son of two public school, union teachers, and I received many benefits from the union contracts. But now those contracts need to be torn up and written anew, in a way that is best for the children. That Governor Brown would subject the schoolchil-

Salt to taste. I’m sorry I don’t know where the recipe originated, but it was shared by many family members and friends before it reached me. Have fun with the recipe and make it your own.

dren of Oregon to this abuse and medical tyranny on behalf of big campaign donors (the teachers’ unions) says so much about who she really is and who and what she really cares about - and it’s herself, her power, her ‘legacy’, not our children. Spending a few thousand dollars exploring ways to free our children in Tillamook County is worth the cost. Masking our children all day at school is not okay, is not worth the cost.! ! There is a famous photo from 1940s Germany in which dozens are giving the Nazi salute, but there is one guy in the middle of them all who isn’t giving the salute, one guy who recognizes the tyranny and refuses to put his arm up like the rest. To all of our elected and unelected public officials in Tillamook County, we need you to be that guy in the photo, to stand up against this tyranny, just like you always said you would, and get those masks off of our children.

Resist the Grinch: how to handle stress this holiday season Karen Sheelar Behavioral Health Clinician at Tillamook County Community Health Center
W
hile some people have visions of sugar plums dancing in their heads, many of us may lie awake stressing about coordinating festive meals, wrangling relatives, and wrapping presents. As we navigate the pressures of winter celebrations here is some guidance to bring good tidings and advice on how to jingle all the way to the New Year. ‘Tis the season to incorporate good expectations, boundaries, and communication. Key Concept: You’ve got this.
This time of the year may bring up feelings of stress, excitement, and even grief. As we reflect on the past and look forward to the future, it is important to find time to be present. Holidays can be a dizzying flurry of activity and emotion. We rarely allow ourselves the opportunity to pause and appreciate our capacity to manage the demands of everyday life, one moment at a time. You’ve got this. Plan ahead. Set up healthy expectations by creating realistic goals around finances, cooking, and patience. As the shopping list grows, timers ring, and controversial topics surface, you can pivot with confidence. Know your budget, evaluate
your time management, and take a deep breath when the conversation turns frosty. Practice flexibility when presented with change. It is almost cliché to say that the holidays, though merry, can make you feel Claus-trophobic. Each year provides an opportunity for new and unexpected challenges. This year, try to react calmly to surprise guests, tangled lights, supply chain disruptions, broken appliances, and cats climbing the freshly decorated tree. Acknowledge your feelings. Convincing yourself that you feel happy or “fine” is one way to survive the hustle and bustle of the Yuletide.
Then again, identifying how you actually feel can be a relief, reduce hostility, and more accurately reflect on the reality of a situation. Addressing difficult emotions can create opportunities for more honest living, encourage conversations, and cultivate problem solving. Take care of your own needs. Step outside for fresh air, keep up healthy habits, or practice saying “no.” It is important to give yourself an opportunity to recharge and help you maintain boundaries. Find ways to implement selfcare that sustains you through all the holiday festivities. Shake or embrace the social atrophy. Let’s face it, the COVID-19 pandemic has affected our ability to relax without six feet between one another. We can dust off our social skills instead of enduring awkward silence. Consider planning for activities that create conversation, build new memories, and make us laugh like charades, Pictionary, or coordinating a white elephant gift exchange.
Move forward with kindness and curiosity. Assume positive intent. Humans are complicated beings and our greatest task ahead includes accepting people as they are. As we approach the New Year, the best policy is to advance with grace and humility. Seek professional help if you need it. Despite your best efforts, if you find yourself consistently sad or anxious, experiencing increased physical discomfort, having trouble sleeping, becoming more irritable, or unable to complete normal activities, talk to a friend, family member, or your doctor. If these feelings last for a while, you might benefit from meeting with a mental health professional. Take control of your holiday stress this season.

Wild Rice with Salmon Stew Prep Time: 20 minutes Cook Time: 30-40 minutes Ingredients - 1 Tablespoon vegetable oil - 1 cup diced onion - 2 cloves garlic, chopped or 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder - 3⁄4 cup chopped carrot - 2 stalks celery, chopped - 2 cups bite-sized cubed sweet potato, white potato or winter squash - 4 to 5 cups low-sodium vegetable broth - 3⁄4 cup corn, fresh, frozen or canned (drained and rinsed) - 1 can (16 ounces) pink salmon, drained (mash bones and skin) - 1⁄2 teaspoon pepper - 3⁄4 teaspoon dried dill - 1 teaspoon lemon juice - 2 to 3 cups cooked wild rice or wild rice mix, heated - chopped parsley (optional) - lemon slices (optional) Directions 1. Wash hands with soap and water. 2. In a saucepan over medium heat, cook the onion in oil for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the garlic, carrots and celery and cook until the vegetables are soft. 3. Add the potato and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes until the potato is tender. 4. Add the corn, salmon, pepper, dill and lemon juice. Return to simmer until heated through. 5. Place ¼ to 1/3 cup cooked wild rice in the bottom of a bowl and ladle stew over the rice. Top with chopped parsley and lemon slice, if desired. 6. Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours. Notes • Serve stew over other cooked whole grains such as brown rice or quinoa. • Try other fresh or dried herbs, such as basil, oregano, sage or rosemary. • Including the bones and skin of the salmon adds calcium and healthy oil (omega-3 fatty acids) to the stew.

This is Jack
This is Frost
Jack and Frost are brothers who are owner surrenders. They were born in a home with lots of attention and affection. They are extremely affectionate and look for laps and attention from anyone available to give it. They have been great with other cats in the foster home. Although they have not had exposure to dogs, they should be fine with a slow introduction.
