An average stay in the seamanship program is 18 to 19 months, though students have up to 24 months to complete their studies.

NEW IN TOWN
‘Earnest’ is clever Continued from Page 3 to death of cleverness. Everybody is clever nowadays. You can’t go anywhere without meeting clever people. The thing has become an absolute public nuisance. I wish to goodness we had a few fools left.” When Algernon says, “We have,” Jack asks what they talk about. “About the clever people, of course,” Algernon replies. “What fools!” Jack remarks. “Clever people” in society
talk about nonsense, often just for the sake of being witty – and other people pay close attention to what they say even though it’s nonsense. Wilde is nudging the audience to examine what their society holds valuable and sometimes reprimands the love of the trivial at the expense of the profound. In a world where we’re constantly inundated with celebrity gossip, digital cries for our attention and what’s the latest trend on Twitter – it’s a welcome reminder.

29th Season of
ASTORIA — A brief but important questionnaire is available on the Astoria Public Library’s website now through Sept. 9. The questionnaire asks residents to weigh in on a list of vision concepts and desired library services that have been garnered this summer through interviews and public meetings, including at the Aug. 18 Astoria Sunday Market. The city of Astoria commissioned a renovation study of the Astoria Public Library in June 2013 because all of the library’s building systems – water, power, heat, ventilation, handicap access – are in need of repair and updating. Ruth Metz Associates (RMA),

Vineyard owner docks for wine tasting Winemaker plans Columbia commute to Astoria A vineyard owner will sail to Astoria to pour samples of his wine at the Astoria Coop and host a wine dinner at Clementeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Restaurant. Rudy Marchesi, a winegrower and owner of Montinore Estate, will make the commute in his 30-foot sailboat from St. Helens. With two events downriver, he decided to make a fun trip out of it. The wine tasting is 3 to 5 p.m. Friday, Sept. 6 at the Coo-op, 1335 Exchange St. Rudy Marchesi purchased Montinore in 2005. When he was growing up, he remembers his grandfather making wine at home. Then in graduate school for clinical psychology, living near vineyards in Sonoma County, Marchesi started making wine himself, and never looked back. That was 40 years ago. Montinore Estate is a 270 DFUH FHUWLÂżHG RUJDQLF DQG ELRdynamic vineyard south of Forest Grove. Biodynamic practices enhance the health and vitality of the farm and subsequently aim to improve quality of the product, making wines

It provides a lot of insight into the world around me and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very creative, especially on the winemaking end. It is a craft that involves a great deal of subtleties; it heightens our senses as winemakers when we work with these subtleties
to create an expression of our farm,â&#x20AC;? Marchesi said. Montinore wines come from the seven varieties of grapes grown on the estate. Half the vineyards are pinot noir, in addition to white wines from grapes that grow well in Oregon; Riesling and pinot gris to name a few. Montinore will be featuring wine pairings at a locally-sourced dinner at Clementeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s restaurant in the evening following the tasting at the Coop. Space is limited, so contact the restaurant for reservations.

RAYMOND, Wash. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Australian piano artists Fiona Joy Hawkins and Trysette Loosemore are returning to the United States once again. They will play a series of performances at theaters, intimate clubs and house concerts. Kicking off their Two Grand Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m Yours 2013 Tour, the duo will perform at 2 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 8 at the Raymond Theatre, located at 323 Third St. in Raymond, Wash. Hawkins and Loosemore appeared at the theater last year and gave a magical performance. This year, the two will bring new material to the stage. From rural Australia, they are both classically trained with a penchant for the grand piano â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s where their similarities end. Blending musical worlds with stories both humorous and heartbreaking, they take their audiences on a journey through pop, folk, new age and classical music, delivering an unforgettable performance in their own fresh and enchanting way. Hawkins, an ARIA Finalist (the Aussie Grammys), will debut pieces from her brand new album â&#x20AC;&#x153;600 Years in a Moment.â&#x20AC;? She works with Grammy-winners Will Ackerman (founder of Windham Hill Records) and Corin Nelsen, and she has several albums with ABC Music (Australia). Her previous album, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Blue Dream,â&#x20AC;? won her a ZMR Album of the

RiverSea Gallery opens two-person show in Astoria Find fantastic carved creatures and imagined landscapes at new show ASTORIA â&#x20AC;&#x201D; RiverSea Gallery presents a two-person show in September, featuring biomorphic forms sculpted in wood by Laura Buchan and abstracted landscapes in encaustic by Karl Kaiser. The show opens with a reception from 5 to 7 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 7. Both artists will make short presentations and answer questions about their work, and refreshments will be served. The artwork will remain on display through Oct. 1. Laura Buchan is a sculptor from Portland who is fascinated by anatomy of all kinds, whether animal, insect or plant. She is especially drawn to creatures such as bats or strange insects, which tend to elicit strong negative reactions in many people. Working in wood, she abstracts, alters and combines various anatomical shapes to create amalgams of several species. In this way, she attempts to move the viewer beyond reaction to a VSHFLÂżF FUHDWXUH WR DQ DSSUHFL-

‘Still Lives’ art show opens in Cannon Beach Gallery displays classic art theme, tickets on sale for fall raffle CANNON BEACH — The Cannon Beach Gallery will host a group exhibition, “Still Lives” from Sept. 6 through Sept. 30. An artist reception will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 7. More than 35 regional artists will share their interpretation of the classic theme of still life. Typically, a still life refers to an artistic rendering of inanimate objects such as fruit or Àowers. But there will doubtless be some surprises as this dynamic group of creatives works with a variety of mediums to push the limit of what it means to be inanimate. Local favorites such as Hanne and Harry Greaver, Liza Jones, M.J. Anderson, Janet Bland and Sally Lackaff will participate in this fundraiser exhibition in which the artists will donate some portion of their commission to the Cannon Beach Arts Association, which operates the Cannon Beach Gallery as one of its primary cultural programs. Artists were provided with 12-inch by 12-inch wooden panels and given creative license to interpret the theme of still life. A total of 100 pieces will be hung for the show, creating a must-see installation of “Still Lives.” Each piece will sell for $125 and is an affordable way for collectors to pur-

Born and raised: I was born in Springfield, and I grew up in a small town named Gilchrist. Lives now: I currently live in beautiful Astoria. Tell me about your children’s book series Nicole’s Adventures. Nicole’s Adventures is a book series about a 5-yearold girl who lives her life in a wheelchair. She goes on all kinds of adventures with her companion dog Zoe and her family. Why is it important to you to tell this story? Is there a person in your life who is the inspiration for Nicole? It’s important to teach children that it’s OK to be different, and it’s OK to be friends with children with special needs of all kinds, and not be scared of them. There are many children whom I have worked with over the years who have inspired me. I have worked with many different children
with special needs, working in private estates on the West Coast, working around children at Shiners Hospital for Children in Portland and the children’s hospital in Tacoma, Wash., and taking children to an Easter Seals summer camp in San Francisco. I ran a state licensed day care for several years in Washington, where I took in a lot of children with special needs. I have also coached Special Olympics for more than nine years in Washington (where I had been living for the past 20 years until I moved here to the Oregon Coast earlier this year). I am now getting involved coaching Special Olympics here in Astoria. Do you have more Nicole stories in the works? Yes I do; I am getting ready to submit my third book, and I have four more I have already written. Where can people find your books? You can find my two Nicole’s Adventures books – “Nicole’s Adventures in Her
Wheelchair” and “Nicole’s Fishing Trip with Grandpa D.” – at Amazon and Amazon Kindle, Barnes and Noble, Childrensbookstore.com, PublishAmerica.com and at Beach Books in Seaside. Why did you want to become a writer? I wanted to educate young children in a fun and entertaining way about children with special needs. What was it like to get published? It was an honor and very exciting. It was a dream come true. When you’re not writing, where can people find you? Spending time with my wonderful family playing up and down the coast. And helping coach Special Olympics when I can. What is something you like about living on the North Coast? The peacefulness of it, and the wonderful people who live and visit the Oregon Coast. And who could not like the weather!
Look forward to tomorrow.
