from the editor The young man and the sea
M
y thanks go out this week to Josh Porter and Corey Morgan, captain and deckhand respectively of the Sunset Charge fishing vessel, who very kindly agreed to get into the spirit of the Newport Seafood and Wine Festival by displaying the raw ingredients for a great night at the coast. It’s amazing who you can make friends with just by wandering around the Newport docks with a bag full of iced Dungeness crab and a couple of bunches of grapes. Strolling the docks also reminded me just how much I love boats and ships of all kinds — a fascination which is equally matched by: a) my complete ignorance of the mechanics of said craft and; b) my utter lack of suitability for any oceangoing adventure. As a son of Scotland’s northeast coast, I can lay claim to a certain amount of salt water in my blood. But it’s fair to say that, since the heroic exploits of my grandfather in World War II, seafaring success has been a little thin on the ground for the Alexander clan. I’ve caught the occasional fish and, on a four-day voyage through the fjords of Southern Chile, managed to somehow hook a far more valuable catch, who I ended up marrying a few years later. But all of these escapades were accompanied by the very real and constant threat of redecorating the deck at any moment with a thinly disguised version of my previous meal. All of which brings us to the youngster who seems set to follow in my grandfather’s adventurous footsteps. Assistant editor Quinn loves the ocean in All grooming services the same way that moths love candlelight. I suspect he will progress quickly from water wings to surfboards at Pet Bath & Beyond and, later, to some kind of yet-to-be-invented in Newport contraption with a monstrous engine and the capacity to instantly send his parents’ blood pressure soaring.

Some youthful advice for writers
Looking at life on the edge Journalist Mateo Hoke will be the guest speaker at the Saturday, Feb. 21, meeting of Writers on the Edge in Newport, talking about his work documenting the effects of the six-decades-long conflict between Israel and Palestine. Hoke is co-editor of “Palestine Speaks: Narratives of Life Under Occupation,” a transcribed oral history of life in Gaza and the West Bank. In their own words, men and women from West Bank and Gaza describe how their lives have been shaped by a conflict that has led to one of the world’s most widely reported yet least understood human rights crises. A graduate of the University of CaliforniaBerkeley Graduate School of Journalism, Hoke is an Oakland-based journalist with Voice of Witness, a nonprofit organization dedicated to examining human crises around the world. His recent stories have included reporting from the Amazon Jungle as well as various journeys throughout the U.S. His writing has received awards from groups including the Overseas Press Club Foundation and the Knight
Foundation. His presentation will begin at 7 pm at the Newport Visual Arts Center, 777 NW Beach Drive, and will be followed by an open mic for local writers. Admission is $6; but free for students. Before and after the presentation, “Witness: Palestine,” a collection of ceramic sculpture by Gilbert Schramm and photography by Ginger Gouveia, will be open in the center’s Upstairs Gallery. • On Sunday, Feb. 22, Hoke will lead a free workshop on the use of oral history a tool for sharing one’s own stories and inspiring the stories of others. Starting at 2 pm at Newport Public Library, 35 NW Nye Street, the workshop will look at the processes behind “Palestine Speaks,” with Hoke reading an excerpt from one of the narratives. Students will explore the power of openended questions, interviewing and listening techniques; and how these approaches can benefit personal writing as well as story gathering. For more information, go to writersontheedge.org.
The Manzanita Writers’ Series will kick off its new season on Saturday, Feb. 21, with a visit from Lauren Kessler, whose book “Counterclockwise” explores the multibillion-dollar antiaging industry. With the subtitle, “My Year of Hypnosis, Hormones, Dark Chocolate and Other Adventures in the World of Anti-Aging,” Kessler’s book takes readers along for a look at the best research and the worst scams on the road to the fountain of youth. In the time-honored tradition of “guinea pig” journalism, Kessler not only does extensive research with the subject experts but also uses herself as a test case for many of the anti-aging methods on offer. Kessler’s previous works include “My Teenage Werewolf: A Mother, A Daughter, A Journey Through the Thicket of Adolescence;” the Pacific Northwest Book Award winner “Dancing with Rose;” the Washington Post bestseller “Clever Girl” and the Los Angeles Times bestseller “The Happy Bottom Riding Club.” Kessler is also the author of “Stubborn Twig,” which won the Oregon Book Award and was chosen as the book for all Oregonians to read in honor of the state’s 2009 sesquicentennial. In addition to her books, Kessler has had articles published in The New York Times Magazine, O magazine, Utne Reader and many more. She is a national speaker and workshop leader and director of the graduate program in multimedia narrative journalism at the University of Oregon. Kessler’s reading will start at 7 pm in the Hoffman Center, 594 Laneda Avenue. Admission is $7. The reading and Q&A will

• During the day on Saturday, Kessler will teach a writing workshop on character development for both fiction and nonfiction writers. “Characters propel plot,” she said. “Characters make us care. How do you create living, breathing, believable — and memorable — characters?” The workshop, which will run from 10 am to 3 pm, also at the Hoffman Center, will explore four main ways writers can create threedimensional characters. The fee is $50, with registration forms available at hoffmanblog.org.

Keep your eyes peeled for these upcoming beers from Rusty Truck. • A black lager; offering a very crisp, clean taste with subtle notes of malt. • A dunkelweizen, the medium entry on the German wheat beer ladder, heavier than the well-known hefeweizen but lighter than the weizenbock. • A Sessions IPA made with mosaic hops, promising less alcohol content and a lighter taste than regular IPAs, with notes of stone fruit and mango. • A Coastal Commons beer, modeled after the California Commons style, of which San Francisco’s Anchor Steam is the best-known example.

Brewmaster Jonathan Anderson and Manager Branden Fowler strongly recommend a growler to go.

he third weekend in February has a reputation for drawing wine aficionados to the coast, eager to sample the offerings at Newport’s Seafood & Wine Festival. But, a few miles north in Lincoln City, a dedicated crew is preparing to make sure that festival guests get the chance to sample the delights of the gain as well as of the grape. Branden Fowler, manager at Roadhouse 101 and Rusty Truck Brewing Company, said the impact of the festival’s more than 17,000 guests can be felt 50 miles along the coast in each direction. “A lot of them have had their seafood and wine so they come in for a beer,” he said. “They want a little palate-cleansing brew.” And thanks to the work of Brewmaster Jonathan Anderson, patrons have quite a selection to choose from, with several seasonal offerings joining the year-round lineup. The king of those seasonals is the Cherry Chocoholic Baltic Porter, which recently took second place at the KLCC Microbrewfest in Eugene, beating last year’s third-place finish. Made with lager yeast, the porter is cold-fermented for several months, to bring out subtle chocolate notes before the brew team adds real chocolate and 45 pounds of cherries. “That takes it out of the subtle range,” Anderson said. As one of the brewery’s darker beers, the porter is a top seller in the winter months, when Anderson said customers often prefer flavors such as dried raisin and fig to the grassy, citrus notes found in summer favorites such as IPAs or lagers. Other dark beers on offer include Procrastinator Stout and Taft Toffee
Porter, which is not made with real toffee but rather a crystal malt that gives it a caramel, toffee flavor. While Anderson often recommends craft beer newbies start off with something light, like a lager or a blonde ale, he said wine fans might prefer a more complex brew, like the French Rye Saison. Inspired by traditional Belgian farmhouse ales, the beer boasts a refreshing acidity, balanced by the spiciness and body offered by the rye. For people who don’t know what they might like, Anderson recommends a sample tray. “There’s a beer for everybody,” he said. “You might just not have had it yet.” Meanwhile, seafood fans looking for a meal to accompany their beer will find a range of options at Roadhouse 101, including prawn scampi, halibut, salmon and catch of the day when the fishing is good. And for folks who are looking for more turf than surf, the restaurant offers

hand-pressed burgers made with Certified Angus Beef along with steaks and ribs — the latter served with a barbecue sauce made with owner Brian Whitehead’s family recipe. Originally the result of a Minnesota maple syrup-making party gone wrong, the Sugar Shack Sauce is now made in the roadhouse kitchen. Fowler said the restaurant ships in 55-gallon drums of New England maple syrup, which the kitchen crew then burns just enough to get the signature smoky flavor. “It makes the kitchen smell really good,” he said. The demand for that sauce might be about to increase as the restaurant revamps some of its barbecue items, with plans to add brisket to the mix. Fowler said the live music is switching up on weekends, bringing in some new bands to complement the venue’s strong blues tradition. On Saturday, Feb. 21, Dixie Wrecked will take to the stage, promising “kickyou-in-the-butt rock and roll,” while Saturday, Feb. 28, will see the Roadhouse 101 debut of Bad Motor Scooter 7.0, playing rock ‘n roll, with some country and blues thrown in for good measure. Amid the changes, one thing remains constant — the dedication to providing top-quality beer for sit-in customers as well the to-go crowd. The bar offers growler fills every day, but at a bargain $8 on Thursdays. “Beat that,” Fowler said, “anywhere on the coast.” Rusty Truck Brewing Company and Roadhouse 101, are at 4649 S.W. Hwy. 101.

Take the pane out of gardening Raise the bar with raised bed class
With coastal winds, drenching downpours and cool weather, growing vegetables and flowers in Lincoln County can be a challenge. Staying indoors is one solution; albeit one that is easier for the gardener than the plants themselves. But, on Thursday, Feb. 26, a round table discussion from the Lincoln County Master Gardeners will look at how greenhouses can help people jump start their gardens and work in the soil year-round. “All About Greenhouses” will run from 10 am until noon in the Community Room at the Oregon Coast Community College in Newport’s South Beach. James Knox, co-owner of Samurai Greenhouse Supplies in Albany, and Dan Barrett, owner of Toledo’s, Affordable Space, will be on hand to present a range of greenhouse concepts and designs, from small cloches to commercial hot houses. The pair will field questions about sizing, construction, coverings, soil, heat retention and much more. This event is free to
People who want to grow their own food, but don’t have the time, energy, money or space for a full garden might want to attend a Sunday, Feb. 22, workshop on how to build a raised bed made from fabric. Hosted by the Sustainable Living Center in Lincoln City, the free workshop will demonstrate a do-it-yourself method for creating a four-foot raised fabric bed that can be used to grow herbs or vegetables in confined areas — and even on a deck or patio. Participants will get to see how fabric beds are put together and, if they bring an electric drill,

Science, Technology, Engineering and Math — or STEM for short — will be on the agenda this Tuesday, Feb. 24, when Dr. Birgitte Ryslinge, president of Oregon Coast Community College addresses the Central Oregon Coast Chapter of the National Organization for Women.

Workshop participants should park in the ProBuild parking lot and walk south to the center. To register, email Workshop@ SustainableLivingProducts.org.
to the United States as a child, Ryslinge has 16 years of community college experience and progressive leadership in California and now in Oregon. She holds a PhD in Organizational Psychology, an MBA in strategic planning, an MA in clinical psychology and a bachelor’s in Business Administration. The meeting will run from 6 to 8 pm in the meeting room of Central Lincoln PUD, 2129 North Coast Highway, Newport. The public is welcome.

tanding in the arena last July, Mckensie Henson heard her first name called and for an instant believed she had won the 2015 Miss Teen Rodeo Oregon crown — until the judge called someone else’s last name. Then, she was just confused. It was one more glitch in a week that had been filled with them. Not only were the odds of winning against her, the 16-year-old probably shouldn’t have even been there. All week she’d been battling a bug and her mother, Jeannie, worried the heat and humidity would be too much. But it takes a lot more than the crud to keep this cowgirl down. On the Thursday before the pageant, Mckensie packed up for Philomath. She had her make up and curlers, her outfit and hat and the months of practice she’d spent perfecting the patterns she’d need to ride with her horse, Blue. Now, all that was needed was to get Blue in the trailer and go. But Blue, so named for his beautiful peepers, is a bit of mares’ man. “He is 16 hands, 1,200 pounds,” Jeannie said. “He is like the Disney gelding of the pasture. He’s got the high tail. He’s very charming. The mares are all just in love with him.” On that particular day, the mares were out in the pasture, apparently flirting with Blue, who was having none of Mckensie’s plans. At one point as Mckensie tried to lead him into the trailer, Blue yanked the 5’5”, 120-pound teenager 10 feet off the ground and sent her flying. She landed in a heap on the gravel. Four hours later, Mckensie and her mom gave up and headed for Philomath, leaving Mckensie’s stepdad Adam to continue coaxing Blue. At 10:30 pm, he also gave up. It looked like all those months of work were for naught. At least with Blue.
But the rodeo crowd is a generous bunch and when word got out that Mckensie was without a ride, someone offered the use of their horse. At 3 am on Friday, Mckensie climbed out of bed to primp and curl and tend to all the fuss required of a would-be rodeo queen. Meanwhile, Jeannie was spray painting her daughter’s boots. Not because they were the wrong color, but because they must be flawless. “There is no dirt or dust,” Jeannie said. “It just has to be perfect. Your hair has to be curled a certain way. Your hat has to be pinned on.” Finally, it was time. “She is sitting at the gate,” Jeannie said, “and she tells me, ‘I have to throw up,’ and she is going in in two minutes. She is in her beautiful outfit and her hair is perfect and her hat is pinned on and she is going to get off her horse and go in the Porta Potty and throw up… I have no idea how she did it.” But she did. Now, back on the horse, a horse she had never ridden, Mckensie was ready to perform the patterns she’d practiced for so long. Her ride, however, was not a show horse, but a gaming horse trained for barrel racing. “Once I went into the arena, he basically bolted,” Mckensie said. Or as Jeannie saw it, “When they opened the gate that horse just went flying. When it came around the turn, it would kick up gravel and spray us. This horse was just going like it was a race horse. It was scaring me. If she’d flown off…” But she didn’t, though that seemed some sorry consolation prize. “I definitely was a little bit bummed and hopeless,” Mckensie said. “I had a year of preparation and it was all kind of failing.” She gave it her best shot anyway. And on Saturday night, after the judge botched her name, he corrected himself, crowning Mckensie the 2015 Miss Teen Rodeo Oregon — the first ever from Lincoln County. The title comes with no cash prize, just honor and pride and the responsibility of traveling the state as a role model and rodeo ambassador. And that’s where you come in. For $25, which will help pay Mckensie’s expenses, you can join her at the Saturday, Feb. 28, coronation dinner at Chinook Winds Casino Resort in Lincoln City. There’ll be live and silent auctions, a Western-style buffet and dancing to live music. More importantly, you’ll get to hang with the Oregon Coast cowgirl who’s proof rodeo queens are so much more than lipstick and powder. Lori Tobias covered the coast for The Oregonian for nine years.

Blame Wagner if you like, but opera has a reputation for being a lengthy endeavor — with performances regularly stretching for four hours or more. But, once in a while, an opera comes along with a running time more like a Hollywood comedy — say an hour and a half or so. Hardly enough time to get settled in your seat, really. The solution? Run two back to back. That’s what will be happening at the Newport Performing Arts Center on Saturday, Feb. 21, when the Oregon Coast Council for the Arts will present a double bill of Tchaikovsky’s “Iolanta” and “Duke Bluebeard’s Castle” by Béla Bartók. The performances will be beamed from the Metropolitan Opera House in New York City as part of the Met Opera Live in HD series. The enchanting fairy tale “Iolanta” stars soprano Anna Netrebko as the beautiful blind girl who experiences love for the first time. Piotr Beczala

in concert
Hitting the performance standards Coastal music teachers will give a lesson on how to have a good time this Sunday, Feb. 22, when the third annual Spotlight on the Teachers concert gets underway, celebrating local musicians in Broadway revue style. The concert is a benefit for the Suzanne Brown Student Aid Fund and is presented by the Lincoln County District of the Oregon Music Teachers Association. District president Rita Warton said the annual concerts are the group’s primary means of funding scholarships. “Without community support our scholarship students would really suffer,” she said. “We have many talented students on partial scholarships that would not be able to continue lessons without financial help. In addition, it gives us the opportunity to showcase our own members as well as many local musical performers who join us as guests.” This year’s performing teachers include Sarah Ball, who will perform piano duets from “My Fair Lady” with local pianist Ginger Hodge;

and piano duo Mary Lee Scoville and Jessica Treon, who will perform Cole Porter songs. Later, Treon will provide accompaniment for Warton as she sings one of her lighthearted numbers. The program will also celebrate Milo Graamans’
musical, “She Loves Me Not,” which recently played to packed houses along the Central Coast. “Milo is an alumnus of OMTA and we are extremely proud of him.” Treon said. “We will have three numbers from his play on the program.
We think of his musical as a Broadway hit of the future.” Singers Pete Theodore, Gidget Manucci, Kathy Elbert, Akia Woods, Cynthia Wilkes and Brian Haggerty will sing these numbers with musical accompaniment by Graamans on piano,
Ian Smith on guitar, Kevin Kemper on bass, Curtis Colt on drums and Richard Henrickson on violin. Other guests include Vickie Steen, who will dance in her inimitable style; and Newport artist Stephan, who will sing tunes from several Broadway shows, interspersed with trivia and stories about each. Katrina and Pete Theodore, Stuart Clausen, Akia Woods and Brian Haggerty will round out the program with numbers from a variety of shows and composers. “Over the years, some of the best, and certainly
best loved music, has been written for Broadway,” Treon said. “There is sure to be one of your favorite shows represented in this revue. Please join us, support our scholarship fund and have a great time.” The concert will begin at 3 pm at the Newport Performing Arts Center, 777 W. Olive Street. Admission is by donation. For more information about the concert, call Treon at 541-563-4183. For information about OMTA, call Warton at 541-994-8585 or go to www. lincolncountyomta.org.
Slip out to see Slipshod
An eclectic lineup of bluegrass and Americana will be on offer at the Lincoln City Cultural Center on Saturday, Feb. 21, as the Weekender Concert Series continues with a performance from coastal acoustic duo Slipshod. Back by popular demand, the duo is made up of Matt Snook and Steve Blanchard, two traveling members of the Northwest bluegrass community who decided to start playing together after their paths kept
crossing at festivals. The pair found they have similar musical styles, yet draw on many different influences, including Gordon Lightfoot, Norman Blake, Simon & Garfunkel and Tim O’Brien to name a few. Between them, the two have a wealth of stage experience, with Snook having performed in groups including the Snook Family Band, Free Range and Sugar Pine, while Blanchard has played with the Bill Jolliff
Bluegrass Gospel Band, Prairie Flyer, Jim Faddis & One More Ride as well as being the lead performer in Steve Blanchard and the Open Range. Saturday’s show will start at 7 pm, in the auditorium of the center at 540 NE Hwy. 101, with doors opening at 6:30 pm. Tickets, $12 in advance rising $14 at the door, are available from the box office, by calling 541-994-9994 or online at lincolncity-culturalcenter.org. A selection of Northwest
beers and wines, My Petite Sweet cookies and bars; and Mountain Man savory snacks will be sold before the show and during intermission. The Weekender Concert Series will continue on select Saturdays through the spring, with the Celtic thumps of The Stomptowners filling the cultural center on March 7, followed on April 11 by classical guitarist Hiroya; and on May 30, by the all-female bluegrass band The Misty Mamas.

jambalaya Louisiana classic shines at Lincoln City cook-off
Mardi Gras translates from French as “Fat Tuesday” but there might be more call for belt-loosening this Saturday, Feb. 21, when Lincoln City celebrates carnival season with its 7th Annual Jambalaya Cook-Off. Chefs from Depoe Bay all the way Vancouver, Washington, will be
competing to impress a panel of professional judges as well as the voting public, who will decide which dish deserves the coveted People’s Choice Award. Guests can sample as many of the entries as they want — as many times as they want — for 75 cents a try; but should be sure to save some room for

a slice of Louisiana’s favorite dessert, King Cake. Widely regarded as Creole cooking’s answer to comfort food, jambalaya typically consists of rice; a variety of vegetables including onions, tomatoes, peppers and celery; and meat that can range from chicken and sausage to fish or shrimp. The dish originated in the French Quarter of New Orleans, where immigrant workers tried to replicate Spanish paella and improvised using the ingredients that were to hand. That spirit of improvisation is among the qualities that make Deli 101 co-owner and chef Greg Hill a jambalaya fan. “There’s a lot of history to that dish,” he said. “But a lot of experimentation, too.”
Hill, who took second place in the 2013 cook-off with his “Sweet Lovin’s Jambalaya,” is planning a different recipe for this year’s contest. While the dish will include chicken and the spicy Andouille sausage that is a jambalaya trademark, Hill has chosen not to add shrimp to the mix. He said chefs can avoid overcooking their shrimp by adding it right before serving, but that this can also cause the shellfish to dry out at large events. “It’s just my personal thing,” he said. “Nothing’s worse than chewy shrimp.” With cayenne and chili in the mix, Hill said he is aiming to hit about a 7 or 8 out of 10 on the spiciness scale. “Jambalaya is supposed to

be spicy but it shouldn’t be overpowering,” he said. “It’s about layers of flavor.” And the key to unlocking those flavors? Cooking the dish low and slow, Hill said, and not being afraid of putting your heart into it. “The secret ingredient
for every good dish is love,” he said, “and I believe that Cajun cooking brings out the soul.” Meanwhile Tino Trujillo, sous chef at Chinook Winds Casino Resort, feels the love for jambalaya deep in the bones — chicken bones to be precise. That’s the starting point for Trujillo’s chicken stock, which he renders from the bones in a process that takes 24 hours to complete. “It gives a real deep flavor,” he said. “You need a good base to get the flavors going.” Trujillo said he will be cooking a traditional Louisiana jambalaya, made with crawfish and Andouille sausage, served with a basmati-style rice. He said to expect a well-balanced dish with a moderate level of spice. Guests that want to turn up the heat can help themselves to habanero sauce on the side.
