Clarification:

We want to clarify an element of the News Guard’s Dec. 19 article concerning a proposal to raise fees at the Lincoln City Community Center: The decision to close the Community Center at 8 p.m. beginning April 1, 2012, was based on a long-time trend of very few customers (members and drop-ins) checking in at the front desk between 8 p.m. and 9 p.m., resulting in very little revenue during that hour. The decision to close early was in no way related to the rate increase of March 1, 2012, according to Gail Kimberling, Lincoln City Community Center director.

LINCOLN CITY, OREGON

DOJ responds to Senior Center claim Jeremy C. Ruark The News Guard

The latest development in the controversy at the Lincoln City Senior Center comes from the Oregon Department of Justice.

Kate Medema, with the Charitable Activities Section of the Oregon Department of Justice, has issued a reply to Center member Sandra Yardley who wrote the agency with a complaint. Yardley requested that the justice department investigate her claim of bullying at the Center and a refusal from

the Center administrators to issue Yardley copies of the Center’s membership list and other documents. Yardley asked that the Justice Department also take steps to invalidate the corporation that operates the Center.

“It appears from your correspondence that you believe the Board of the Lincoln City Senior Center is withholding certain records from inspection by its members,” Medema wrote.

“The Lincoln City Senior Center is organized as a membership corporation, and Oregon law provides

that members of such organizations are entitled to inspect and copy certain types of records following the procedures set forth in ORS Chapter 65. Please note that our office cannot advise you on the law as it applies to your situation. However, I enclosed a copy of Chapter 65 for your convenience. I have also included a copy of the most recent financial reports filed by Lincoln City Senior Center with our office as required of all charities registered in this state.

graders did the most collecting, winning the contest and prizes such as 10 minutes of extra lunch time and a pizza party with donuts, by amassing 632 cans of food.

Heavy rains, saturated grounds, unstable hillside and Mother Nature have increased the landslide danger along the Oregon coast, according to officials at the Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries (DOGAMI).

“The Oregon coast range is one of the most landside prone areas on earth,” said Ian Madin, DOGAMI chief scientist.

“We need to know where the landsides are in order to manage the land so that we minimize the impact on streams, roads and structures.

Madin said of the two types of landslides in Oregon, the debris flow landslide can be lethal.

“A debris flow landslide occurs during heavy rainstorms,” said Madin.

“It is a wall of mud coming down the canyon at 40 mph. They are lethal.

When people get killed or injured it is almost always a debris flow type of landslide that is the cause.”

The deep-seated landslides are much slower and less threatening.

“Those slides tend to be thousands of acres,” he said. “They may be stable for years, decades, even centuries until something disturbs them and they will begin to move slowly, a couple of feet a day. This type of slide likely won’t

irefighter Marc McPherson has headed up the city’s holidayseason food and toy drive for four years now, but never has he seen such a charitable coming together of community to ensure happiness and good cheer for so many at Christmas time.

“It was overwhelming,” the North Lincoln Fire & Rescue District #1 fireman said. “I just kept repeatedly going down to all the stores that we put the food buckets in and emptying those buckets and taking them down to the Elks and the Eagles. It was amazing.

There’s not a single

person that I spoke to who wasn’t willing to give their all to help us out. It was absolutely the best.”

McPherson made good on his attempt to rally the community with the support of various annual participants and one key addition to the cause.

“With the help of the high school, we’ll make good on our goal,” he said of the students at Taft High 7-12, who helped the holiday drive avoid coming up short as in past years, particularly last Christmas, when there was a shortage of both food and toys for needy locals.

“It was inspirational what they did to get the school together.”

Taft students, in a

contest between the four classes, the middle school students and the faculty and staff, collected 1,494 cans of food and more than $400 for new toys for families in need.

Church of the Nazarene begins expansion Jeremy C. Ruark The News Guard

A $105,000 expansion plan for the Church of the Nazarene located at 1462 NW 19th Street in Lincoln City is moving ahead following approval of site plans and a conditional use permit by the Lincoln City Planning Commission.

“Overall we believe the project will be a good upgrade for the neighborhood and the church site,” said Kate Daschel, Lincoln City Planning Department assistant planner.

Open 8a-7p Mon-Fri, 8a-6p Sat

Pastor Kelli Westmark said the expansion will allow the church to add community preschool services.

“The preschools in town all have waiting lists, so we wanted to meet a basic need in the community,” said Westmark. “We want to make this a safe place for kids and an affordable place for parents.”

The expansion includes two new rooms and an outside children’s play area.

A 12-by-16-square-foot room will be added that will be used on Sunday by parents with infants.

“Most other local churches have a similar room,” she said. “But our church does not.”

A 20-by-20-square-foot room will be added for the preschool sessions.

“We are also adding a playground and sound barriers that will soften the noise when kids are outside playing,” said Westmark.

The church has partnered with the Lincoln City Community Center to allow the preschool children to use the Center’s gym facility See NAZARENE, Page A3

thought is always, ‘oh how can you filter the beach?

There’s too much beach out there.’ But you don’t have to filter the whole beach.”

Ward said 99.9 percent of all the material on the beach is pushed up in the first five meters on the beach.

“We can take two 2.5 meter screens side by side and go from one end of the sink to the other and filter all the sand right through.”

And because of the way the currents work, it doesn’t need to be done every year on every beach.

“Where you need to worry about is these highdensity spots.”

Unfortunately, Ward has noticed these high-density spots seem to be some of the most beautiful and most visited beaches in Oregon.

Most people look around and don’t see any major debris or garbage, so they think they’re safe, he said.

“If you don’t know what you’re looking for, you’ll see maybe 10 percent at the surface, just a sprinkling,” he said. “Ninety percent of the problem is buried under the wind-blown sand.”

Ward has seen an increase in plastic so small and fine, it looks just like sand. In his latest research he has been analyzing the sand that bonded to his filtration system. Roughly 168.5 grams of sand, out of 100 pounds bonded to the screen in 2010.

“I was highly suspicious that it was actually plastic,” he said. “What we found is

There was the same kind of contamination in these fragments, probably even more dense... That’s where we have the real problem.”

Going through samples taken in 2011 and 2012, the highest density of “plastic sand” was 40 percent. A lot of it is airborne and next summer Ward plans to set up glass colanders on the beach for additional testing.

“When you’re on the beach, and the wind is blowing and that sand is pelting you like crazy, getting on your hot dog, your sandwiches, getting on everything, and at least 20 percent and as high as 40 percent of that is this contaminated plastic... Little kids are breathing this stuff; it’s lodging in your throat and lungs. This is a serious problem, when every single sample we’ve ever tested globally is contaminated

kinds of chemicals don’t work like that. You can’t smell them, can’t taste them, you don’t notice any bad effects until a decade later when you develop cancer.

“The potential for danger is definitely there if you’re cooking on top of this stuff, or letting your children dig in the sand and put it in their mouths. You’re exposing them and yourself.”

While Ward believes it’s a real threat to human safety, not every single beach in Oregon has one of these sinks, and the beaches that do, the sinks don’t cover the entire beach but rather a 100-200 meter section.

Ward has mapped maybe a dozen sinks down the coast and has found them in Cannon Beach, Manzanita, Florence, Coos Bay and other areas. Lincoln City is one of the few beaches in Oregon he hasn’t mapped yet for plastic sinks, but he wants to get down there as soon as possible.

Crescent Beach is the highest density sink. When the ocean current hits a sea mount of underwater geological structure (think of Tillamook Head), everything the current is carrying gets condensed upwards towards the surface.

“I realized the only way we are going to be able to reclaim our beaches is by filtering this out of the beach,” Ward said. “It sounds impossible. It’s not.”

Ward developed a homemade screening process to filter out plastic particles of all sizes from the beaches. In the last three years, he has gone through 10 different prototypes to fine-tune it.

“Now we have the most incredible, manual, low cost system,” he said. “We can take and pull everything the size of a white blood cell out of the sand.”

The screens generate a low static charge that even the smallest particle of plastic will bond too. The sand falls through the filter and comes out pristine.

“It’s an amazing, incredibly impressive system,” said Ward. “It’s low cost, low tech, it works so efficiently and it’s durable... People’s first

arc Ward is no amateur when it comes to tracking and understanding the plastic debris that float our ocean’s currents, contaminating and killing marine life. In fact, he has spent every winter for more than a decade in Costa Rica saving sea turtles from this very issue.

But three years ago, as he was enjoying his summer off on the pristine beaches of Oregon with his wife and young children, the Seaside resident was jolted with a discovery: the same toxic-ridden micro-plastics that were killing sea turtles and other marine life were spread far and wide on his beloved home-town beach.

And what’s more, his oneand-a-half-year-old had a piece of it in his mouth.

“When I saw this incredible blanket of material that I knew was toxic, you can imagine how I felt,” he said.

“I immediately went into action mode - how do we find a solution to this? It was a daunting problem when you think there is 300 miles of Oregon Coast.”

Fortunately, through surveys and studies, Ward was able to pinpoint the specific areas of beach called “highdensity sinks,” those areas where these plastic particles collect at an extremely high ratio.

He is currently working to test areas along the Oregon Coast for these sinks, and though he hasn’t made it to Lincoln City yet, a local visit is high on his priority list.

The problem starts in the North Pacific Gyre, where roughly 100 million tons of garbage is spinning around like water in a toilet bowl.

Between UV degradation and the mechanical action of the spinning, the garbage – which consists a great deal of plastic – is broken down into smaller and smaller pieces.

As the gyre continues to spin clockwise off the West Coast, ocean currents pick up this debris and circulate it through the ocean system.

Because the Oregon Coast is on the corner of the ocean current, its shores get pummeled with debris floating along with the current.

“It’s why Oregon is the beach combing capital of the world,” Ward said. But these same currents that bring us lovely glass balls from Japan are also bringing garbage - garbage that Ward has proven through years of research to be toxic.

“I have an extensive knowledge of these materials and how they travel and what’s actually out there,” he said. “I’ve surveyed data for years and what you get on the beach is a really good indication of what’s out there.”

And what he knows to be out there are micro-plastics that absorb high concentrates of chemicals, better than a sponge, he said.

As the plastics float in the system, PCBs are absorbed and locked into the matrix.

Other toxins and flameretardants can be absorbed into the plastics.

“Originally everybody thought it’s plastic, it’s inert, but we’ve proved that completely wrong,” said Ward.

And he’s also been able to prove that while the plastics absorb different toxins, they also release them when heated. Say, when you build a fire on the beach to roast your hot dogs.

“Most of these microplastics are five to ten inches below sand,” he said. “So when you build your cook fire on top of this, every single chemical is instantly released into your face in the smoke. If you’re cooking hot dogs over the fire over this kind of site, everything is being released into your food, clothing... It’s highly problematic, although you’re not going to notice anything because these

with PCBs. To me it’s very obvious there is potential there for harm – not on the whole Oregon coast but in these sites, a real potential for health hazards.”

To clean these sinks would cost an estimated $7,000 a mile, which includes safety gear for a crew, transportation and administration costs.

“It’s not that expensive, and we need to filter these sites,” Ward said. So far, the sampling, filtering and supplies to build the screens have come from Ward’s own

pocket. So he’s looking for anyone who would like to sponsor a crew to clean the beaches with a tax-deductable donation. He estimated that a crew could clean one beach in about three days, working eight hours a day.

“Because I’ve been working in this for well over a decade, I know what we need to get this done and implement the solution.

And we’ve found a solution, and it’s like a gift from heaven.”

Tree Recycling

While your Christmas tree and holiday decorations may have brightened up your home over the holiday, they can now be dangerous.

Between 2006-2010, U.S. fire departments responded to an average of 230 home fires that started with Christmas trees per year.

These fires caused an average of 4 deaths, 21 injuries, and $17.3 million in direct property damage annually.

Christmas tree fires are not common, but when they occur, they are likely to be serious. On average, one of every 66 reported fires that began with a Christmas tree resulted in death.

A heat source too close

to the Christmas tree started one of every five (18%) of these fires.

Nineteen percent of home Christmas tree structure fires were intentionally set. Nearly three-fourths (72%) of the intentionally set Christmas tree fires occurred in the 15 days after Christmas and may have been related to disposal.

Source: NFPA’s “Home Christmas Tree and Holiday Light Fires” by John R. Hall, Jr., November 2012.

According to Jim Kusz,

through senior classes.

Senior Pablo Lascano went a step further. He had his hair cut into an Avatarlike style during an assembly to honor the middle school students’ efforts.

“He was good for his word,” said McPherson, who addressed and thanked the students. “That was pretty cool.”

McPherson was taken aback by the community’s cooperative efforts in making the holiday food drive an unparalleled success given the hardships of a year ago.

“We did not have enough toys, nor did we have enough food,” he said.

“The food we ran out of,

“Basically that means two cans were donated per student, which is just phenomenal, It really, truly is,” McPherson said. “And, they’re going to make it a yearly thing for us, which, again, is phenomenal. It was so great to get them involved and see them so excited about helping out their community. I think it was a really good lesson for them.”

Surely it was an eyeopening experience for Taft Principal Scott Reed and administrator Ryan Hawkins.

They pledged to paint their beards pink if the school’s faculty and staff couldn’t “out-drive” the freshman

so we were basically going to the door with this single small chicken and a can of food for a family of six, It was quite disappointing, so it’s a real revelation for our community to get involved in such a manner.”

There are others to thank, of course, McPherson said. There was Les Schwab Tire Center’s annual participation and the wrapping of the gifts and delivery by the Elks and Eagles clubs on Saturday, Dec. 22.

Noteworthy was local resident Christiane Maller’s ventures from business to business for contributions to help feed the needy. She wound up raising approxi-

mately $1,700 of the $3,800 she spent buying 250 turkeys from Price ‘N Pride.

“I do it because I like to give back to the community,” she said. “I was on social services and promised to give back to the community when I had the ability.

Christmas is about helping others.”

“We ended up with an incredible amount of food,” McPherson said. “The turkeys were just a blessing from Christiane, and we just sneaked under the wire with the toys. It was really very close to having enough quality toys, but we got there and it worked and that’s all that counts.

The kids will have a great Christmas morning and the families will have a wonderful Christmas dinner.”

Also assisting in a major way was bartender Marc Roemer of Shucker’s Oyster Bar, who contributed clothing certificates to the Old Navy Store through tips he made on his annual “Give a Damn Day.” Roemer has collected approximately $30,000 in the eight years he has held the event.

“It was 180 degrees from the last couple of years,” McPherson said. “People were so much for it and so spirited. The people were just so into giving and helping out their community.”

PACIFIC CITY – The possibility the State might close Pacific City’s airport drew more than 50 people to the Tillamook County Commissioners’ meeting Dec. 19 at the Kiawanda Community Center in Pacific City.

The issue drew people from Clackamas, Sisters,

Eugene, and Salem, to join the locals in support of keeping the airport open.

While there are currently no formal closure plans for the airport, Mitch Swecker, Director of Oregon’s Department of Aviation, presented an overview of the situation that could result in closing the facility.

Swecker said fund-

ing maintenance of such airports statewide is a major issue in the current economic climate. He said there also are concerns about safety and the potential of costly liability claims in case of mishaps at the Pacific City airport, which does not meet normal State standards for width or length of runway or extent of the “runway

protection zone”.

Several of those attending the meeting spoke in favor of doing whatever is needed to keep the airport open.

Some had specific ideas for making that possible.

The Tillamook County Board of Commissioners also expressed support for the airport.

The church raised $41,000 for the expansion through public donations “People gave generously,” said Westmark. “We had folks from Portland and surrounding communities donate.”

Wesleyan Investment Foundation, a small church investment firm based in the Midwest, provided the church with a low interest loan to fund the remaining cost of the expansion.

Construction could begin on the project following city review of the building plans and as the weather clears.

“Our goal is to start laying the foundation as soon as possible so that we can be done by July of 2013 and open the preschool by September of 2013,” said Westmark. “We will likely start registering children in

the branches and lead to fires,” he said. “We also see candles with open flames too close to holiday decorations which can also be dangerous.”

As people begin cleaning up and putting away holiday decorations, how they do that can also lead to a fire.

“We’ve seen people use vacuum cleaners to clean out their fireplaces and woodstoves,” said Kusz. “Often they collect embers and that can lead to a fire.”

Fire destroys mobile home Charred remains are all that’s left of a doublewide mobile home at Stockton Avenue and Bear Creek Road in the Rose Lodge area following a fire at the structure Dec. 19.

“It was 50 percent involved and fire was quickly spreading when we arrived,” said Doug Kerr, North Lincoln Fire and Rescue District 1 assistant chief. “We immediately went into a defense mode which means nobody goes into the structure because there was so much fire in the building.”

Fifteen firefighters responded to the 7:30 a.m. fire.

“We had more volunteers on the way to the scene but we called them off once we determined we had sufficient personnel,” said Kerr. “We wanted to keep adequate resources in the city in case another emergency occurred that needed our attention.”

Firefighters were able to extinguish the blaze within an hour. The flames destroyed the unoccupied mobile home.

“It had been slated for demolition,” said Kerr. “The building was in poor repair.

The roof leaked. There was still power to the structure and we believe that the cause could be electrical.”

Four engines and a tender responded to the structure fire. There were no injuries.

School budgets, challenges, safety and more Lincoln County School District Superintendent Tom Rinearson took time from his busy schedule to chat with The News Guard about the district’s challenges and successes for the first half of the new school year and what’s ahead.

The News Guard: What has been the biggest challenge facing the district this year so far?

Our biggest challenge and the biggest success is the number of new teachers that we have brought on board. We had a huge retirement last year. Just about 25 percent of teaching staff and administrators have been replaced. That in itself creates a challenge in passing on the culture of the district to the new staff and to help them understand what we need to do.

We have a pretty intensive mentoring program to help them through the realities rather than reading details out of a text box.

The News Guard: Has that impacted the pace of

education for students in the district?

No. I don’t believe there has been a slowdown in learning because we have a strong and effective mentoring and hiring process for the new teachers.

Tom We use four Rinearson former teachers and a mentoring grant from the Oregon Department of Education and our principal at Oceanlake mentors the new principals we hire.

The News Guard: You had told us that the district needed to fill 50 positions.

Yes, and in fact it was the right time to be hiring because other districts were laying off staff and teachers so the pool was so rich and we had a process in place to shift through that process. We actually had

1,000 candidates submit applications during the Oregon Job Fair in Portland last April. We had about 50 jobs that we were offering that ranged from kindergarten to advance math, pretty much across the board. Just about all the buildings now have new staff members.

Some have 70 to 80 percent new staff.

The News Guard: How did you make that change so as not to disrupt the education process and ease the transition for students?

We began by celebrating the folks that were leaving and when the new folks came in we celebrated them. We also held open houses. The kids actually adjusted better than the parents. Kids are a lot more resilient to change.

The News Guard: The district is also going through lots of physical changes. Is that another challenge for you?

Yes, the rebuilding is in just about every school

in our district. The work ranges from constructing buildings from the ground up to adding new roofs. It’s about a $63 million project in all. The school board has made a point to keep the money local. About 69 percent has been spent with local vendors.

The News Guard: Certainly the district is challenged by the unknowns in state revenues and what the Oregon Legislature will decide in 2013 for state school support?

That’s the biggest dance I will have to do. During the last part of the school year I will put together the new district budget. Our annual operating budget this year, with the construction bond measure, is $110,000.

That supports about 5,000 kids, 210 teachers, and 20 administrators in 12 schools operating in 10 buildings.

It is too early to tell if we will face cuts or reductions, but everything is on the table. We will need to figure how to maintain what we are doing currently. We

will be looking to maintain movement with the new teachers and finish up the bond projects.

The News Guard: Following the school shooting in Connecticut you issued a release to assure parents what Lincoln County Schools have in place if such a tragedy happened here.

We want our families to know that we take safety seriously and have several preventative measures in place in our schools on a regular basis as we work to provide for the safety of our students and staff. We have a protocol that we closely follow each time there is a school shooting, a traffic death on the highway, anything where students are distracted or grieving.

Sometimes those responses are small and sometimes they are huge. We will establish safety rooms, bring in counselors and partner with outside agencies to help our students and staff.

Sheriff’s Tips

Protect yourself on the roads— practice safe driving Sheriff’s Tips

By Sheriff Dennis Dotson

Your Sheriff’s Office frequently receives calls from citizens concerned about the driving habits of other motorists. Regardless of the topic, the question always asked is, “Isn’t there something you can do about it?”

While law enforcement agencies enforce traffic laws, the number of police officers throughout the State of Oregon are unable to keep pace with the increasing de-

mands for service from our citizens. As a result, there are fewer police officers to enforce traffic laws and therefore fewer motorists who are held accountable for their mistakes or poor driving habits.

What law enforcement can do is take opportunities to remind and educate motorists of the Rules of the Road through school presentations, social service club meetings, newspaper articles like “Tip of the Week,” brochures, and stopping motorists for law violations that may or may not result in a citation.

Here are some remind-

ers: Don’t follow too closely – one car length per 10 mph of speed is an effective distance to avoid collisions from sudden slowing or stopping of the vehicle in front of you; Proceed slowly through school zones – it provides you with more time to react to something unexpectedly entering your pathway; Don’t crowd the vehicle you are stopping behind just in case the motorist behind you doesn’t stop in time and strikes your car. Adequate space could prevent you from being pushed into the car in front of you;

Use your turn signals for lane changes and turns – it’s too late if you turn on a signal as you’re moving into another lane. Activate your signal at least 100 ft. before the lane change or turn; Turn off your driving lights when meeting cars and following cars just as you would for your high beam lights – it’s the law and citations are issued for this violation; The center left-turn lane is not an acceleration lane – vehicles are permitted in the center turn lane to stop and wait for an opportunity to merge into the travel lane; Yield to pedestrians

crossing the street; Be considerate to bicyclists on the streets and roads – we receive many complaints about inconsiderate bicyclists who fail to follow the Rules of the Road, however this is no reason for a motorist to retaliate; Together we can make Lincoln County a safer place to drive.

them up to date. Many of us thank him for that. Incidentally, the By-laws state that a Senior does not have to be a member to utilize Senior Center facilities or be involved in activities. Why are they passing rules now that say you have to be a member to use the computers?

Why won’t the Board agree to mediation of the issues involved?

and magic performances draw up to 66 percent of its attendees from out of town.” In truth, only one of our presentations in the past year, the weeklong Festival of Illusions, drew 66 percent of its attendees from out of town. That was its purpose, as it took place during Spring Break and was in fact an event created and subsidized by the LC Visitor and Convention Bureau.

We track zip codes at nearly every event, whether it is produced by the center or not. And the percentage of out of town guests (with zip codes from more than 50 miles away) is around 15 percent. The Lincoln City Cultural Center is a resource for locals, that also happens to offer fun for tourists, too.

time the city or the school district tries to pass a bonding measure. The city just brought a big hornets’ nest into its living room.

State annexation statutes can be amended. Our organization and its allies have done it twice in the last decade. As a result, the ability of cities to forcibly annex large numbers of citizens against their will has been significantly curtailed.

What enabled those successes was overly-aggressive annexation practices by a very few Oregon cities and the public anger that resulted. However, “hostage” annexations are still allowed, at least for now.

We regret that the Road’s End dispute ended badly and I’m sure both sides would have preferred otherwise. We will continue our efforts to protect and expand the right of those most affected by annexations to a meaningful voice in the process.

Voices of Lincoln County City Wins, Merchants Lose

There is only so much money out here! Every dollar taken by local, state & federal government is one less dollar for commerce.

Mr. Baird has good reason to fear for his business. The additional money for our house and a rental (which is no longer affordable to our tenants due to the increased property tax) was going to a deck addition, a wood stove, and adding a bathroom.

Instead, it will go to Mayor Dick and Mr. Hawker who know how to better spend the money. Studies have shown that every dollar spent by a business is turned around 8 times in the community. Every dollar given to government is turned around 1 and 1/2 times.

It’s ironic that the very government pleading for affordable housing is the very same agent making it unaffordable.

And no Mayor Dick, my neighbors & I do not use your stinking community center, library, or schools.

We just pay for them. We do patronize your businesses, local trade shops, and res-

taurants.

As we settle into a local economic malaise, we can look to our city council as to the reason why.

Questions About the Senior Center

When the Senior Center Board discontinued Friday night Bingo and Sunday potluck, they eliminated the favorite activities of 50 to 60 Seniors. I have been asked by many people when, or if, those activities will be started up again. I have also been asked if the membership fees of those disenfranchised members will be refunded.

Why is pinochle still going on when the activities of other Seniors have been discontinued? Is it because pinochle is the favorite activity of most of the board members? It would be nice if those activities would be resumed.

The computers are not being maintained properly since Larry Wanamaker is no longer in charge of their maintenance. He did a wonderful job and always kept

Correction

Thank you for allowing Meryl Lipman, communications manager for the Oregon Cultural Trust, to write a guest commentary in last week’s News Guard.

It’s especially important this time of year, when many Oregonians are making their annual donations, to draw your readers’ attention to the OCT, and its support of the arts and humanities here in Lincoln County.

With your permission, however, I’d like to clarify one point in Ms. Lipman’s column. She wrote that “the Lincoln City Cultural Center’s musical, theater

kill anyone, but it will tear apart roads, buildings and power lines.”

Because of the heavy rains this fall and winter and the unstable hillsides, Madin is urging people traveling the Oregon coast to be aware of the potential of dangerous landslides.

“Be cautious,” said Madin. “The places that are most likely to be hazardous are when you pass a side stream. That’s where debris flows come down.

Drive slowly. Keep an eye out. If there is muddy water coming down the road don’t go any further. It may be that there is a debris slide around the corner flowing onto the roadway and you may be buried under 40 feet of flowing mud.”

beginning new mapping.

Although lidar data were acquired for seven watersheds in the Coast Range, landslide mapping focused on North Fork Siuslaw River and Big Elk Creek watersheds as examples.

“Using lidar imagery as a base map allowed us to accurately map an astounding number of slides,” said Bill Burns, DOGAMI engineering geologist. “Prior to this study, only 261 slides had been located in these two watersheds. But with the lidar and a landslide mapping protocol developed here at DOGAMI, we were able to quickly and precisely map landslides, even in heavily forested areas.”

Burns cautioned that these data and maps are designed for regional applications and that the data and maps should not be used as an alternative to site-specific studies in critical areas.

The sources of small shallow debris flows, which are common in mountainous areas of the Pacific Northwest, are likely not captured in this study.

Besides landslide mapping, the study provides examples of methods that can be used to identify both landslide and nonlandslide sources of sediment and stream warming.

“This is just the tip of the iceberg in showing what lidar can do,” said Madin.

Center

From page A1

If you are unable to work directly with board members to resolve these concerns, you may wish to consult with a private attorney who can help you determine whether there is a basis for legal action and whether you have any claims that could be pursued. In addition, sometimes mediation can help with an internal dispute within an organization if the other side is willing to participate. Groups such as the Oregon Mediation Association, at http:// www.omediate.org/, may be able to assist you in locating a mediator.”

Center member Michael Bass is also concerned about how the Center is operated.

Bass voiced his concerns in writing to David Hawker, Lincoln City city manager, and also appeared before the Lincoln City Council Dec. 10 questioning why the Senior Center was allowing social gambling without a valid permit. Bass believes the Center’s pinochle games violate city ordinances. Bass has indicated that he would also take his concerns to the Oregon Department of Justice, but at press time had not filed an official complaint.

“This matter is very important to me and to many others, but also to the peace, morals and welfare of the senior community,” Bass wrote in his letter to Hawker in late November.

Hawker cited Chapter

9.24 of the Lincoln City Municipal Code, which pertains to social gambling.

Section 9.24.020 A. states the following: “The playing and conduction of social games within … a charitable, fraternal or religious organization, organized primarily for purpose other than the conducting of social games, is authorized within the city where no house player, house bank or house odds exist, and there is no house income from the operation of a social game.”

In a letter responding to Bass’s complaint, Hawker wrote, “There is no house player (i.e. someone playing as the “Senior Center”), no house bank, and the income raised from the games is

used to fund them, I believe the Pinochle Games held at the Senior Center comply with our Municipal Code regarding social gambling.”

Yardley and Bass have been the primary leaders in voicing concerns about how the Center is operated.

Jan Shields, the Senior Center president, has been critical of Yardley’s approach to resolving the concerns by placing ads in the newspaper.

“Her ads are false, misleading and disruptive,” said Shields.

Shields met with Yardley and Bass in an effort to resolve the issues. But at press time no resolutions had been reached.

to cause a stir in the community and, according to city officials, continues to be disruptive causing some not to attend functions at the Community Center.

“People come here to feel good about themselves through exercise, through social activities and for emotional wellbeing,” Gail Kimberling, Lincoln City Community Center director, told The News Guard in November. “By having this growing controversy under our roof and at the senior center it is hindering that.”

The Senior Center is housed inside the Community Center at 2150 NE Oar Place.

“As the lead agency in the state acquiring and imaging lidar we are finding new and exciting ways to use this amazing technology every day.”

But the challenge is finding funds to pay for the landslide studies and research. According to Madin, Oregon does not fund a specific program to map landsides. He said partnering with city, county, state and federal agencies is one option.

“We need to establish such a partnership,” said Madin. “We really want to work with those agencies to help them make a reasonable plan to deal with the hazards of landslides.”

Obituaries Christopher Casteel

Christopher Dale Casteel, 46, of Neotsu Ore., passed away quietly at home on December 16, 2012. Chris was born March 10, 1966, to Diane (Justesen) Brown and Marshall Q. Casteel in Newport, Oregon.

He received his GED and was most proud to graduate from the Christopher Elite Truck Casteel Driving School in 2009. He was a truck driver for Dan Kauffman Excavation and drove confidently and with the utmost pride. Prior to his truck driving, Chris had been a sawyer and plant manager for the Truss Companies of Salem.

Chris was a friend to everyone. He really never met a stranger. His heart was overwhelmingly generous and he told the best jokes and stories that would get everyone’s full attention. His contagious smile will forever be imbedded in our memories.

Chris was preceded in death by his dad, Marshall Casteel; paternal

grandparents, Raymond and Dorrise Casteel; and maternal grandmother, Pauline (Krajeski) Flores.

He is survived by his son, Nicholas Casteel of Albany, Ore.; sister Kelly (Pat) Monroe of Gresham, Ore.; brothers, Darin (Skeeter) Brown of Youngsville, N.C. and Russell Reed of Sweet Home, Ore.; grandfather, Marlen Justesen; nephews, Brian Monroe, Darin Brown Jr., Brodie Carnes; niece, Whitney Brown; aunt, Donna Herndon; uncles Terry Justesen and Jerry Krajeski; aunt Jean Parker; and cousins, Dennis Hunt, Jeff Herndon, Julie Sexton, Vanessa Coggins, Bryan and Clinton Justesen.

There will be a celebration of Chris’s life Saturday, Jan. 12, 2012, from 1 to 3 p.m. at the Eventuary Center 560 S.W. Fleet Ave, Lincoln City.

Arrangements were entrusted to Pacific View Memorial Chapel.

Philip (Buzz) Mason was born August 24, 1943, and was a resident of Village Manor in Troutdale, Oregon, when he passed away on December 14, 2012. Philip was raised on a farm in Beaverton,

Members of the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office recognized

Oregon, in an area called Cooper Mountain. He attended Cooper Mountain Grade School. In 1955, the family moved to Portland and he attended Sabin Grade School and graduated from Grant High School class of 1961.

Philip traveled to Sydney, Australia in 1963, returning after nine months.

He joined the U. S. Army and upon discharge, became a machinist. Philip’s marriage to Joyce Funk in 1983 ended in divorce after three years.

He is predeceased by his parents, Gilbert M. and Mabel (Berkey) Mason of Lincoln City, who were previous owners of the Edgecliff Motel.

He is survived by his sister, Patricia (Patsy) McLean of Lincoln City; a niece, Holley Kay Pickens of Portland; and a nephew, Tyler F. Williamson of Hillsboro.

Autumn Burial in Tigard Ore., has handled the arrangements and Philip is to be buried at Willamette National Cemetery in Portland. No service is planned at this time. His sister, Patsy, is ever grateful for the care and kindness the Staff at Village Manor extended to her brother for so many years.

Members of the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office were honored at the annual Oregon State Sheriff’s Association annual conference Dec. 2-6 in Bend.

Lieutenant Curtis Landers was recognized with the Distinguished Service Award for leading the upgrade of Lincoln County’s public safety communications system and the transferring of dispatch services from Lincoln County to the Salem-based Willamette Valley Communications.

Lieutenant Jamie Russell received the Meritorious Service Award. Russell has served as Lincoln County’s Jail Commander

since 2003 and has been involved with OSSA’s Jail Command Council since becoming jail commander.

Chief Civil Deputy Christie Meister received the Meritorious Service Award. Christie was critical in a successful effort to get NCIC to change its

code definitions contrary to the LEDS recommendation. These definitions now accommodate Oregon’s Restraining Order forms, and help avoid unlawful arrest, or failing to make an arrest regarding R.O. Violations.

Christie was also selected as the OSSA’s Civil Manager of the Year for 2012.

Captain Bruce Tompkins of the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Mounted Posse was honored as the OSSA’s Volunteer of the Year for 2012. Tompkins was recognized for capturing and caring for dozens of neglected and abused animals.

Taft girls put clamps on Waldport JIM FOSSUM The News Guard

The Taft girls basketball team overcame a slow start offensively with a tenacious defensive effort to overwhelm Waldport 40-27 Monday, Dec. 17, in a nonconference home game.

“Anytime you can hold your opponent to under 20 points, you have to feel pretty good about your effort and your chance to win,” Taft coach Dan Mock said.

Junior transfer Taylor Adams helped lead a balanced scoring attack with 12 points against the Class 2A Irish (2-5) of the TriRiver Conference.

Despite the nonleague victory Monday, the game wasn’t entirely pleasing to

the third-year Taft coach.

“I was frustrated, though,” he said, “As a team, we started out very slow offensively. Though we were up 14-5 at the half, I really was disenchanted with what we were doing offensively, and I feel the responsibility for that was really on me as a coach.”

Mock said the Tigers were stagnant and exhibited a low energy level. He responded by making an adjustment at guard to a full-court, man-to-man defense at the start of the third quarter.

Taft reacted to the strategy by responding with a 20-point quarter.

“Making that simple adjustment was huge for us,” Mock said, “because it increased our intensity and

we opened up a comfortable lead. I was able to give extended minutes to some of my players that don’t always see a lot of time on the floor during games, and that is a nice problem to have.”

The Tigers (3-4) had a Friday, Dec. 21, home game canceled by the Lincoln County School District when school was called off due to weather issues and fallout from the aftermath of the Connecticut school shootings.

Taft was scheduled to play at Toledo on Saturday, Dec. 22 (past The News Guard’s holiday deadline), and will host Toledo, at 5:30 p.m., on Wednesday, Jan. 2. The Tigers are scheduled to play 5:30 p.m. home games against

Taft boys come away with nonleague victories

GOOOOAAAAAL!

JIM FOSSUM The News Guard

The Taft boys basketball team took full advantage of nonleague action to prepare for the upcoming Oregon West Conference season last week by winning home and road games against Waldport and Junction City, respectively.

Taft (4-5) defeated Class 2A Waldport (4-3) of the Tri-River Conference 5648 at home on Monday, Dec. 17, behind game-high scorer Brent Martin with 17 points, while fellow senior Chris Knudson supplied the muscle underneath with 11 rebounds.

“It was a sloppy game with neither team really shooting well,” Taft coach Mark Williams said. “We got more shots to fall than they did.”

Taft’s 44-24 road win Tuesday, Dec. 18, at Class 4A Junction City (1-6) was anything but sloppy as the Tigers put together one of their best defensive efforts in recent memory.

“Our defense was unbelievable,” Williams said after

senior Skyler Lopez led a balanced scoring attack with 12 points and twin brother Tyler spearheaded a suffocating defense with four steals.

Taft started the game in a matchup zone defense and the Tigers of the Sky-em Conference could not adjust, Williams said.

“I kept thinking they’ll figure it out after awhile and we’ll switch to another,” Williams said, “but they never did. Neither team went into a stall or slowed it down either, so to just give up 20 points in a fast-paced game was incredible.”

Taft’s Friday, Dec. 21, home game against Scappoose was canceled by Lincoln School District school closures. The Tigers were scheduled to play a nonconference game at Toledo on Saturday, Dec. 22, and host the Boomers at 7 p.m.

Wednesday, Jan. 2.

Taft opens league play Jan. 15 at Stayton.

“We are learning how to win close games down the stretch and that is huge for us,” Williams said. “We continue to improve each week.”

Coastal Youth

Growing up on the mats F

unny, how the more you practice, the better you get. Just as logical, coaches will tell you, is that the earlier you start, the more advanced you will be.

Wrestling is no exception. In fact, it’s tantamount to get an early start in such a niche sport that attracts a certain kind of competitor, coaches such as the Lincoln City Mat Club’s Chet Parker will tell you.

The revamped, reenergized and reinstituted USA Wrestling-sanctioned local program is again functioning and training youth for both recreational and organized competition.

“Basically, we’re a feeder program for the high school,” said Parker, who helped develop the program before it disbanded following his relocation by his employer to Sunnyside, Wash., following the 2007 season. “We’re trying to develop these younger kids to where, when they get into high school, wrestling is not anything new to them.

They know what the basics are, and, in turn, it helps out the high school.”

You don’t have to tell Taft High coach Luke Hall that. He’s seen a steady stream of quality wrestlers advance through the local youth program from novice to state participant.

“The best programs in the state are the ones that have kids’ programs, so it’s a big deal,” Hall said.

“Our best wrestlers, the guys who make it to state, are the guys who came through the kids’ program.

If you come in as a freshman without prior wrestling experience, the odds are really stacked against you as far as achieving a lot of success.”

Taft junior Seth Steere, who wrestles at 145, is among those who have made the most of the program. Regarded by Hall as the Tigers’ best wrestler fundamentally, Steere went to state as a sophomore

last year.

“A lot of credit for Seth’s progress goes to his involvement in the mat club,” Hall said.

“It helped a lot,” said Steere, who thanked longtime youth coach Earl Lahti for his instruction during Steere’s club participation in the fourth and fifth grades. “This way, I didn’t have to work too much on my moves.

I could just work on my technique.”

Sophomore Joe Salsbery is another of the current Taft wrestlers who say they have benefitted from their early participation in the sport.

“It helped me feel comfortable in getting to a bigger stage like high school wrestling. It’s definitely an advantage,” said Salsbery, who wrestles at 126 and started in the second grade. “I feel bad for some of the freshmen who haven’t been through the club and don’t know what to expect. It gives you time on the mat and gives you a feel for what a wrestling tournament is like that you can’t get anywhere else.”

Former Tiger Patrick Ryan, who made appearances at state during all four of his seasons at Taft, is another example of the mat program’s ability to produce quality talent. Better yet, Ryan’s teammate, David Converse, won the 130-pound state championship as a junior in 2010.

Parker and several supporting coaches started the program in 2006. Five current Taft wrestlers participated in the program and are expected to contribute mightily to the Tigers’ success.

“In 2008, the whole club just went away, and it shows, Parker said. “If the club would have continued on, we definitely would have had a pretty strong high school team.”

This year, 15 kids ages 4 to 15, including a couple of eighth-graders who will advance to the high school ranks next season, compete for the club.

“Basically, our program

is all about teaching the basic wrestling moves to the younger group because there’s no middle schools to teach that,” Parker said.

“So, they should have a pretty good idea when they get there of what to expect.”

In the program’s final season before it disbanded, Parker estimated having 25 wrestlers ages 5 to 15.

To get to those numbers again, Parker invites interested parties to attend a practice or two.

“A few have come out and sat and watched and a few decided they didn’t want to do this and a few decided it’s pretty neat,” he

said.

Entry fee is $50 with $36 going toward the USA sanctioning fee and $14 to the club. The club practices from 6 to 7:30 p.m.

Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays in the same mat room used by the high

school team.

The club will travel to various USA Wrestlingsanctioned tournaments.

The program’s participants decide which ones they will compete in.

New Year’s Revolution Earth Abides

By Ken McCormack

I

t’s the second day of Christmas. The sun is dying, short days, darkness, plants dead, the earth dying. Everything black.

Last September, I drove to Albuquerque. More smoke than I’d ever seen, roared through my nostrils—starting at Portland— burning, wheezing and gasping— across the entire West. The fire season is 75 days longer now.

“If God wanted us to have clean air, why did He give us oxygen masks?”

Summer drought this year devastated two-thirds of the country. Floods swamped Africa; heat scorched the northern hemisphere. Acid rain, acid ocean, dead coral, five-legged frogs, shellfish without shells, Katrina and Sandy-like storms.

Cheer up. Things could be worse? Sure enough! Things get worse.

Global greenhouse emissions are up three percent. Arctic ice the size of the United States just melted. Our favorite beach is riprap. Predators in the ocean are down 90 percent.

Congress will have to paddle to work—to vote against the climate bill.

It’s only common sense. If we keep throwing trash out the window like there’s no tomorrow, there’s no tomorrow.

Try home brew, for instance. It is better than philosophy.

If you put brewer’s yeast into a garbage pail full of sugar and water, nature takes its course.

The yeast devours the sugar as fast as possible, increases by the millions, just like people, with no thought for tomorrow. It secretes toxins, in this case, alcohol. You might get a cold drink, but the yeast; well…it dies in its own poison.

That’s nature.

For 125,000 years or so humans were like any other organism in the garbage pail. We weren’t many, and mostly stayed to ourselves in a corner. But 75,000 years ago, a volcanic explosion blotted out the sun. The human population shrank to the size of a high school assembly. Something totally incredible happened.

Huddled together on the African continent, our genes mutated rapidly. Behavioral changes erupted like wildfire. With the help of language, the aggressive creatures we are now quickly faced down the environment. We could overcome external restraints better than any other organism on earth (except maybe insects and bacteria).

The plush, lush forests, fruitladen trees, fish-crowded seas, fields of fat browsing mammals, ideal for the brewing, and the devouring and the secreting.

By 12,000 BCE we numbered five million and pretty much covered the globe.

Agriculture came up and exploded everything again. The food supply shot through the sky.

Maize, potatoes, tubers quadrupled our farm yield. Fertilizers, technology and fossil fuels boosted it out of sight. The once natural landscape now served only one species. The entire world became our beer barrel. We grew like yeast to seven going on 10 billion. Agriculture became the major cause of global warming.

In the end, poison wins.

Oblivion. “Things are always darkest before it’s pitch black.”

The earth is waste and void; darkness is upon the deep; a spirit moves upon the waters, a flicker, a thin line breaks across the horizon. It’s the Second Day of Christmas. A New Year’s Revolution turns away, towards hope.

A flush of rose. A tiny ship chugs homeward through the ashes. The sun. Rebirth. A new beginning.

I recall the sacrifice that defeated the Nazis. And the one that ended slavery, the biggest moneymaker of all. And then the love that overcomes greed.

Are we going to drown like yeast? It’s time for a New Year’s Revolution. Breathers of the world, unite! You have nothing to lose but your asthma!

“Stronger than all armies is an idea whose time has come.” (Victor Hugo)

f it’s December, it must be time for the Members’ Holiday Art Show in the Chessman Gallery, at the Lincoln City Cultural Center. This annual exhibit features a broad spectrum of two- and threedimensional artwork, décor and gifts.

The show opened with a reception on Dec. 7, and will remain on display through Jan. 7.

The center, and the gallery, will be open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., Thursday through Monday, throughout the holiday season.

Membership in the LCCC, which starts at $30 a year for individuals, has a variety of benefits. One of them is the ability to enter works for the members-only art shows, offered twice a year. The works are sold, if the artists desire, with a 35 percent commission going toward the upkeep of the gallery, and the center. This holiday show was organized and hung by the center’s new gallery director, Krista Eddy.

“This show is colorful and creative and will be a great stop for you if you are embarking on a winter gallery stroll, or if you’d like to find that special and unique gift for someone,” Eddy said. “The Chessman Gallery is all

decked out and filled with fantastic variety, all made by our members: jewelry, glass, pottery, miniatures, paintings, photography and maybe even some techniques you’ve never seen before. Don’t miss the robot, the box of fish, the rolling waves and the many other wonders.”

The show includes oil paintings by Nancy McEwen, Byron Pickering, Nancy Chase and Dick Deam, and acrylics by Barbara Chimienti, Clifford J. Klinkhammer, Ann Bajovich and Ruth Hugeback. Joanne Hay is showing watercolors, and Jill Perry Townsend is showing a bronze sculpture. There are also mixed media offerings from Ron Thornhill, Ben Soeby and Irene Shea, accented with blown glass by Kelly Howard, dish gardens by Richard Merrill, and textiles by Lyle and Arlene Gowing.

This show offers interesting methods and approaches. Judy Deam is showing reverse acrylics, which are painted in layers on glass.

David Jordan is exhibiting several pieces of digital art, abstracts with elements of photography and graphic arts.

Participating photographers are Vonelle

Swanson and Dean Ingram, next to cloth cats

by Linda Hoff, miniatures by Melva Love and jewelry by Elissa Burian. You’ll also find ceramics by Scott Livesay and Judith Watson.

Some talented members of the LCCC entered in more than one medium. Avette Gaiser brought both paintings and jewelry, while Ingrid Ingram submitted a beautifully knit sweater, a crocheted hat and scarf, and a handmade Art Deco style necklace.

The Chessman Gallery, named for the late arts advocate P.J. Chessman, is located inside the LCCC, 540 N.E. Highway 101. The center is also home to Lincoln City’s official visitor welcome center, the LCCC Members Gift Shop, the studio of sculptor Jill Perry Townsend, a renovated dance studio and several other creative spaces. Upcoming events in the auditorium: a Big Band dance with the Lincoln Pops Orchestra on Jan. 5, and a bluegrass fusion concert with Oh My Darling on Jan. 18.

Free painting workshops for artists of all ages

L

ooking to expand your artistic horizons over the holidays? Visiting artist Molly Smith will be teaching two free painting workshops, on Dec. 27 and 30, at the Lincoln City Cultural Center, 540 NE Highway 101, in Lincoln City.

Smith is an artist and educator who recently moved out of New York City. She is in the area as part of an artist’s residency and is happy to be working with people who are interested in exploring their creativity. Smith has shown artwork nationally and internationally and is currently working on pieces for two upcoming solo shows in California.

She holds a master’s degree in fine arts from Columbia University and a bachelor’s degree

from Rhode Island School of Design. More about the artist can be found at www.mollyvirginiasmith.com.

The first course, taught from 1-3 p.m.

Thursday, Dec. 27, is Ink Brush Painting for Young People. It’s open to youth, ages 8 to 15, and no previous art experience is necessary. All materials are provided.

“Come explore the wonderful possibilities of ink! You will learn to work with light and dark values, and experiment with the ink, brushes and water to find an original way to express yourself,” Smith said.

On Sunday, Dec. 30, she will offer a watercolor painting workshop inspired by a technique called Sequence Painting, developed at

the River Gallery School of Art in Brattleboro, Vt. This approach invites people without prior technical experience in making art to engage, as well as those who have a developed artistic practice. Sequencing allows everyone to create from wherever they are. All materials will be provided; students need not bring anything with them. Participation is open to young adults, as well as those 18 and up. It will be held from 1-3 p.m.

To pre-register for either class, contact Smith at mollyvirginia@gmail.com or 917-5833461. Walk-up students will also be welcome, space permitting. Donations will be accepted, with proceeds going toward the upkeep of the LCCC.
