Rain Magazine invites submissions for 2016 edition ASTORIA — Rain Magazine, Clatsop Community College’s annual literary and arts publication, invites submissions now through Jan.10 for the 2016 edition. Proud of its 40plus years publishing the art and literature of the local talented coastal community, Rain welcomes submissions from the general public as well as CCC students. Submit no more than three items total, including poems, photographs, high quality (at least 300 dpi) digital images of original artwork, and prose less than 5,000 words in length.

color images should indicate if the image may appear in black and white. Include name, address, phone number, email, title, medium, and a two-to-three line biography with all entries. Please also note whether you intend one or all of your submissions to be considered for the 2016 theme section.

building or a body). If one or all of your submitted items are intended for this special theme section, identify these pieces in your submission. Email submissions are greatly preferred. RTF is the preferred format for written work. TIFF or JP* ¿les (at least 300 dpi) are preferred for artwork. Email to rainmagazine@clatsopcc.edu.

ASTORIA — The Consort of All Sorts presents its fall concert of Baroque music at 3 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 18 at Grace Episcopal Church. Called “Music for Warm Nights,” the concert is being held as a bene¿t for the Astoria Warming Center, which will open in mid-November to provide a warm, safe overnight shelter for the homeless in Astoria. Admission to the concert is free, but donations will be accepted to support the warming center. Featured on the program will be instrumental pieces from the 18th century composed by Johann Sebastian Bach, Georg Phillip Telemann, Johann Joachim Quantz, Italian composers Sammartini and Vivaldi, plus solo pieces for harpsichord. The Consort of All Sorts specializes in performance of early music from the Baroque and Renaissance periods but occasionally strays into the early classical and modern periods. Members include Charles Schweigert on baroque Àute, +annelore Morgan on recorders, Donna Carson on bassoon, Phyllis Taylor on cello, Ray Lund on harpsichord, and baritone Drew +erzig.
‘Music for Warm Nights’ 3 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 18 Grace Episcopal Church 1545 Franklin Ave., Astoria Free The group has performed together for four years at several concerts in Astoria, mainly at Grace Episcopal Church, which has excellent acoustics for chamber music. Most of the music was originally performed in this kind of intimate church setting. The Astoria Warming Center opened during the coldest nights this past winter and served an average of 14 homeless individuals per night. This coming winter will be the second year of operation for the center, and donations and volunteers are needed to ensure it can continue to provide refuge during severe weather for those without homes. The center is an Oregon nonprofit corporation but is not yet tax-exempt. +owever, donations to the Jubilee Ministries at Grace Episcopal Church are fully tax-deductible and will go entirely to the center.

Thanks to the work of dedicated members, the Long Beach Grange hall has been restored with new windows, LED lighting, a new roof and a handicapped-accessible front entrance. Now, the sturdy building serves as a thriving community meeting place.

Why has the Grange become so popular? Rick Haug believes that it’s because, “There’s a resurgence of doing things for ourselves instead of living out of Wal-Mart.” Or maybe, as Patty Bagley-Wills says, it’s simply because the Long Beach Grange is, “a fun place to go in a small community.”

History of the Billop House
Billop House — a.k.a. the Conference House — was built before 1680 and is located near the southernmost tip of New York on Staten Island and became known as “Billop’s Point” in the 18th century. The Staten Island Peace Conference was held there on Sept. 11, 1776 as an unsuccessful attempt to end the American Revolutionary War. In 1776 the war was not going well for the Colonists. The British controlled New York City, Staten and Long islands. By September, the Colonists were near defeat, so it was arranged by Lord Richard Howe to meet with Benjamin Franklin, Edward Rutledge and John Adams at Billop House. Howe, after emphasizing that the British intended to end the Revolution and crush its leaders, offered to end the

war if the Colonists would swear allegiance to England. Considering this tone, it is not a surprise that Adams and the others refused the offer. Col. Billop took great delight in the fact that these talks ended the ¿rst day. He felt these traitors to England would shortly be destroyed. After this event, Billop’s mansion was given the new nickname of “Conference House.” Billop was happy his home now symbolized his loyalty to the British and, more importantly, England’s power. Throughout the war, Billop opened his home to British soldiers that needed to rest — his large basement kitchen was converted into a hospital. Often soldiers were smuggled into his home at night through the tunnel. Soldiers who died at the home were hastily buried around the large estate, for there was no time for funerals. It is stated that this is most likely the reason why the ghosts of British soldiers wearing redcoats are still seen on the property. Billop’s vehemence toward patriots during the war made him a target. He was twice kidnapped and held for ransom. The ¿rst kidnapping occurred in June 1779. A group of patriots rowed across from Perth Amboy in New Jersey, capturing Billop who was held for two months. The second kidnapping took place in November of the same year. Both
times Billop was held as a prisoner of war in the Burlington County jail in New Jersey where he was chained to the Àoor and fed only bread and water. He was told this was retaliation for prisoners held by the British. During the second kidnapping, Billop was released just after Christmas. After his return home, he was convinced that one of his servants had aided in these kidnappings. He had seen a servant girl place a lantern in a second Àoor window and felt this must have been a signal to the men supposedly hidden at a church steeple in Perth Amboy. When next he saw this servant girl place a lantern in a window he went mad. It is noted that he “bellowed at her and threw her down a Àight of stairs killing her.” It was also noted that after this tragedy it came to be that the girl was only doing one of her nightly chores. Billop had her body buried in an unmarked grave on the property. For years neighbors have reported that the home and property appear to be haunted. Reports include soldiers wearing redcoats wandering the gardens, kitchen and the tunnel. A man has been heard singing, and others have reported being tapped on the shoulder by an unseen hand. Many visitors have stated that there is a residual haunting of the murder. A man is heard shouting, a woman screams and the sound of her falling is heard. The servant girl’s grave has never been found, and the exact number of ghosts and their names, except Billop, has never been discovered. The house, a national and New York City landmark, is the only pre-Revolutionary manor house still existing in New York City. It is located at Conference House Park overlooking Raritan Bay. The house is also located within the Ward’s Point Conservation Area, separately added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.

Kabob House I
A combination ($13.99) features half chicken and half beef kabobs with rice and a salad.
Persian charm and flavors come to Long Beach I’ve been absolutely delighted since stumbling upon the Kabob House, which opened this August in Long Beach. It’s the kind of passionate bet on food that the North Coast needs more of. Indeed, the idea makes me smile as much as the beef makes me swoon. The Kabob House is Behnoosh Ghorbani. “Call me ‘B,’” Ghorbani says. “It’s easier.” She is the sole owner, proprietor and employee. B was born in Iran. She’s lived in the West for “only” 15 years, many of which she spent in Portland assisting dental surgeries. “I got sick of dentistry,” B says. So, a year or so after moving to the Columbia-Paci¿c region she decided to take a chance. “I just thought nobody has this food here.” She’s right. Like countless others, Persian Àavors have been almost wholly absent in the region. The only eateries that come close are the O Falafel truck (Israeli) and Drina Daisy (Bosnian). But those geographical similarities are loose. Regardless, B is doing her own thing. “These are my mother’s recipes, my father’s recipes,” she says. In general that revolves around chicken, beef and veggie kabobs. They’re served regularly at weddings, celebrations and so on. It makes sense why: After prepping, the kabobs are relatively quick to cook. That said, during a rush service can slow down at Kabob House. Remember: It’s just her. Any inef¿ciencies are wiped away, however, by B’s earnest sweetness and charm. And though she’s still learning the service industry, she’s got the cooking down. The beef and chicken kabobs wait in the fridge, raw seasoned meat skewered by what looks like a skinny sword or comically long knife. Some 2-feet-long with wooden handles, the skewers are formidable. B places them over a modern, stainless steel pit with open Àame. She Àips them and doesn’t overcook. Everything — save for a side dish of hummus or baba ghanoush — is prepared thusly. The menu is short. Essentially, you can have your kabob four ways: on rice, a hoagie roll, in a wrap, or with a salad. A combination ($13.99) features half chicken and half beef, and B is happy to serve it with both rice and a salad. Delivered not on a tray but in a to-go bo[, I dug ¿rst into the beef. It was divine. Juicy, salty, soft and just a little bit of magic. It was exquisitely cooked with just the most ever-so-subtle tweak in seasoning. B told me it was a mix of salt, pepper,

onion and saffron — the latter being, I believe, the pixie dust. The chicken too was expertly cooked, just blackened on the corners but succulent and evenly cooked from end-to-end. It was as if it had just come off a barbecue. For some there might be a temptation to chop the meat up and distribute it evenly among the rice and/ or veggies. I didn’t bother — the meats were too good to dilute, particularly that spectacular beef. Each ¿nished skewer was about the si]e of a large hot dog and rested upon a bed of buttery, long basmati rice. Alongside was a salad of sliced romaine lettuce, cabbage, cucumbers, tomatoes, a few olives and parsley-sprinkled onions. On its own, the produce was run-of-the mill — the kind at the grocery store that comes wrapped in plastic. (I know this because B’s fridges have glass doors.) Despite the mediocre quality and budging freshness, I’d have eaten the salad all day thanks to B’s homemade cucumber dressing. (Seriously, get it — don’t muck around with the bottled ranch or Thousand Island.) With a yogurt base, it

bears striking resemblance to t]at]iki, but B’s recipe leaves out the garlic. The dressing comes too on both the wraps and sandwiches. I had the Sandwich ($7.99) with my beloved beef, which was just as tantali]ing the second time. I enjoyed the addition of pickles, whose brine added a pop that the rice combination lacked. Otherwise, the two were much the same, simply swapping white rice for white bread. And the bread did lack. It was a generic hoagie roll, unbecoming of cradling such a ¿ne beef. The wrap ($7.99) was essentially the same, only trading the hoagie for a large Àour tortilla. The thinner container made room for more roughage, less carbs, and a more direct line to

Àavor. But at $7.99 it felt a bit spendy, and not entirely ¿lling. B also offers hummus and baba ghanoush sides. I tried the baba ghanoush ($5.45), and it too felt like it needed the kinks worked out. A bit dull, the olive oil-y dip only came with a single, small piece of pita bread — there was enough dip for four or ¿ve. Indeed, the Kabob House is still very much a work in progress. B is experimenting. She offers a lamb shank ($16.50), but because of prep time you have to call a day in advance to get it. For a lot of people, myself included, that’s awkward. She’s also just started making Chicken Stroganoff, but it’s only available on Sunday and Monday. Furthermore, B says she has a recipe for another kind of kabob that she wants to do, but the requisite Àat iron steak would necessitate an untenable price. Nonetheless, B is going for it. And that — along with the new Àavors and worship-worthy beef — should be celebrated. Sure, there are some wrinkles to be ironed out, some improvements to be made. But B, in her ¿rst foray into commercial cooking, is off to a stellar start.

Travel ‘Over the River and Through the Woods’ Riverbend Players present comedy NEHALEM — “Tengo famiglia!” — an Italian expression that means “hold the family together” — weaves its way throughout “Over the River and Through the Woods,” the hit off-Broadway comedy written by Joe DiPietro, presented by Riverbend Players Saturday, Oct. 17 to Nov. 1 at the North County Recreation District. This clever comedy spotlights the priority shift in the younger generation from family-centered identities to career-driven ones. Directed by Jeff Slamal, the story takes shape after 29-year-old grandson Nick announces that a job promotion would move him across the country from New Jersey to Seattle. His crestfallen Italian grandparents immediately plot to make him stay. A barrage of humor and sentimentality ensues as Nick’s grandparents try to change his mind about moving — by introducing a charming young woman into the mix: “the unmarried niece of my canasta partner,” as one grandmother puts it.

There will be two matinee performances at 2 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 18 and Nov. 1. Admission is $15. Children under 12 free. For information or advance tickets call 503-368-7008.

A framed photo of Ernest Hemingway pouring a cocktail graces the wall behind the bar at the Tiki Lounge in Astoria.
A GLIMPSE INSIDE An occasional feature by MATT LOVE
The Tiki Lounge After the exit of an obnoxious mother-daughter tandem, I was alone in the Tiki Lounge in Astoria on a Saturday evening and tranquility reigned, finally. I love tranquility. I loathe loud voices, particularly ungrammatical ones who repeat the word “selfie.” I ordered a draft beer, and my mind drifted to Ernest Hemingway because a black and white photograph of Hemingway preparing a titanic gin and tonic decorates the back bar of the Tiki Lounge. I suspect the image originates from Papa’s preposterous drunken stint in Cuba, before the revolution, Castro, the Bay of Pigs and all that. Can you believe American citizens still can’t freely travel to Cuba? What a diplomatic farce! Didn’t anyone tell the State Department that the Cold War ended in 1989? I want to visit Cuba. I want to drink a Cuba Libre in Havana and toast the end of communism! Wait! Didn’t I hear something about our recent normalization of relations with Cuba? Maybe someone at the Tiki knows all about it. As I said, my mind drifted to Hemingway, a writer I haven’t read in 25 years and will probably never read again. I was thinking: Suppose Ernest Hemingway visited contemporary Astoria. Where would he go for a cocktail or to get into one of his legendary public confrontations? The Tiki, that’s where, and all its crazy Polynesia décor meets Jimmy Buffet meets weirdoes meets booze meets clam chowder and ice cream from the adjacent Charlie’s Chowder House. A most curious cultural intersection regularly occurs inside the Tiki Lounge, but then again, that’s the intersection required to generate good stories, such as discovering the story of why the mother and daughter were wearing identical purple dresses that revealed their ample bosoms. I didn’t get that story, but I surmised it was a funeral they had just attended.
Matt Love lives in Astoria and is the author/editor of 14 books about Oregon, including “A Nice Piece of Astoria: A Narrative Guide” and “The Great Birthright: An Oregon Novel.” They are available at coastal bookstores and through www.nestuccaspitpress.com
The Astoria Brewing Company doesn’t have a seasonal beer, but the smaller original brewery at the Wet Dog has Killer Whale Pale Ale, which you can drink while watching the humpback whales in the river. This beer is very hoppy for a pale ale, and might better be thought of as an IPA. Citrus and a bit of pine with an astringent finish. Another seasonal entry at the Wet Dog is Brewberry, a dark copper colored wheat beer made with marionberries.

Mushroom >m ݕݞrum@ noun 1. any number of spongy fungi, complete with cap, stem and gills, that spread by spore and grow in soil or directly on a food supply, like tree bark verb 2. to increase rapidly Origin:
Raiders of the Lost Fort, left, and Pulpit Pounder Porter are two seasonals by Buoy Beer.
Buoy Beer Co. Inspired in some way by another Astoria brewery, one of Buoy Beer’s seasonal ales is the Raiders of the Lost Fort Imperial IPA. This is a big IPA (8.7 percent alcohol) with more hops in the nose than in the taste, which is crisp, potent and slightly citrusy. The overall effect is a medium-strong, flavorful IPA. Another seasonal entry is the Pulpit Pounder Porter. The name is an odd one. Could it be related to Obadiah Poundage, who in 1760 described this dark beer as the drink of“labouring people, porters etc.”and as“racy and mellow”? Like most cold-weather brews, this one is strong, 6.5 percent, smooth and nutty with a fruity quality, and is lighter and less hopped than many porters. Harvest time means wet hop beers. These are beers made with newly picked hops, rather than the dried hops used at other times, and the flavor is, as you might expect, crisp, lively and less bitter than other beers. In a word: unprocessed. You’re tasting
something right off the vine. Buoy’s entry in this category is its Fresh Hop Session IPA.
