from the editor

Up, up… and away?

I

t is a little-known fact about your editor that my greatest joy upon boarding an aircraft is the prospect of browsing through a new SkyMall catalog. This week’s news that the company has filed for bankruptcy leaves me in something of a panic. Put simply, I am afraid I might never again make it through another longhaul flight without the kind of spiritual anesthetic that only SkyMall can provide. I begin my soothing ritual as soon as my seatbelt is fastened, flipping through the pages and studying the peculiarly diverse array of products — ranging from the pointless to the ludicrous to the downright insane. “Are there many takers for a Mai Taiscented T shirt?” I ask myself. “How about the yeti garden statue, is it a big seller? And the ‘men’s padded butt enhancer briefs’ — they must be selling like hotcakes, surely?” And how many people could possibly go as far as to buy a replica vintage airplane propeller with the intention of propping it in the corner of their home office as so helpfully suggested by the catalog’s copywriters? Ah, the writers. I spare a thought, too for these poor souls, who once no doubt dreamt of writing the Great American Novel only to one day wake up and find that the task before them was to wax lyrical about a wine bottle holder shaped like a frisky bear cub. The future for SkyMall looks bleak but a visit to their website paints a characteristically upbeat picture. “Changes are in the air, but we’re still here!” chimes the banner on their homepage. “Place your order today.” Perhaps the savior for this endearingly absurd publication will be found in the very smartphones and tablets that have been blamed for its demise. After all, if they can get us browsing SkyMall.com with our feet on the ground, they might shift some of those yeti statues yet.

The definition of high art

“Summer Fishing” by Caroll Loomis

Mixing it up in Newport Award-winning mixed media artist Caroll Loomis will be the guest speaker at the Thursday, Feb. 5, lunch meeting of the Coastal Arts Guild. Born and raised in the foothills of the Oregon Coast Range, Loomis, now makes her home in Toledo, where she is known for her baskets, encaustic and acrylic painting, sculpture and colorful gourds. An enrolled member of the Osage Nation, Loomis began to study Native American basketry techniques in her late teens while living in northern California — a Yurok elder teaching her how to make baskets from roots she dug from the ground. Over the years, she discovered contemporary basket weaving and making free-form woven sculptures. She also became widely

known for her beaded lid baskets. Fifteen years ago, Loomis discovered the gourd as canvas and began embellishing them with bright colors, shiny beads and lots of texture. Within a few years she discovered beeswax and added “encaustic painter and sculptor” to her resume. One of her encaustic pieces, “Summer Fishing,” was recently juried into the “Wild Women 2015” show at the River Gallery in Florence. The Feb. 5 lunch will run from 11:30 am to 1:30 pm on the 2nd floor of the Newport Visual Arts Center at 777 NW Beach Drive, and is open to all those interested in the arts. For more information and an invitation to attend, call Linda Anderson at 541-265-5228 or Bobby Flewellyn at 541-563-8548.

One of the fringe benefits of being the nerve center of a religion that has spread to every corner of the globe throughout the past 2,000 years is that you amass a pretty impressive art collection along the way. And, on Sunday, Feb. 1, coastal audiences will get the chance to explore the artistic treasures of the Catholic Church when “The Vatican Museums” appears on the big screen at the Newport Performing Arts Center. Hosted by the Oregon Coast Council for the Arts, the film represents the very first time Ultra HD 4K/3D film cameras have been allowed inside the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel. Director of the Vatican Museums Professor Antonio Paolucci guides viewers on a tour that runs from paintings by Giotto, Leonardo da Vinci, Van Gogh, Chagall and Dalì; to the extraordinary frescos in the Rooms of Raphael and the spectacular work by Michelangelo in the Sistine Chapel. The program includes

Clay in the spotlight The latest Spotlight Show at the Yaquina Art Association Gallery in Newport will feature a collection of clay pottery from association president Ken Hartwell. The show, which opens Saturday, Jan. 31, includes more than two dozen of Hartwell’s handcrafted works, including vases, bowls, pencil holders and odd-shaped creative pieces. Hartwell began working with clay when he was in high school and has been

teaching the clay class at the Yaquina Art Association for the past nine years. The class, which runs from 12:30 to 3:30 pm on Tuesdays is the second largest that the association offers. The studio offers recycled clay to the students for free, meaning the only costs involved are the firing fee. The show will run through Friday, Feb. 13, available to view from 11 am to 4 pm daily at 789 NW Beach Drive.

one man’s beach C O M M E N TA R Y • B Y M A T T L O V E

Drones and ethics A

young shirtless man in shorts stood in the dunes of Nestucca Spit. He held something with both hands at his waist and looked out to the ocean. Below him, his apparent partner, a young woman, struggled to control a lab puppy on a leash. The young boys, presumably theirs, laughed and threw sand on the dog while the woman screamed at them to stop. A few feet away, another child, a girl, fiddled on her phone. I was puzzled by the man’s behavior and said so to my friend. She looked over to the man and said, “He’s flying a drone.” I scanned the sky and didn’t see a thing. I didn’t hear anything either, except a little pounding of the surf. It was a quiet and windless December Saturday. The sun glowed too, creating the perfect conditions to fly a drone. I wondered: is this a legal activity on a publiclyowned Oregon beach. A few minutes later the drone came to rest on the beach, scattered a crew of sandpipers, and the man went over to pick it up. From a distance, I could see the drone was translucent in design and about the size of a football. Quite the stealth gadget for capturing some arresting still and moving images, if indeed that’s what the man intended with it. Drones, I thought. At the beach? Then I recalled something: years ago, on this same beach, I witnessed an elderly man flying a noisy toy airplane. The plane crashed into the surf, broke apart, and his wife went into the surf to salvage the debris. The man was inconsolable and just stood there; it was the plane’s inaugural voyage and he hadn’t read the directions properly. I knew this because I went up to him and got the story. Eventually, I wrote a column about the encounter and would have included a photograph had I brought a camera along. I usually do when Sonny the husky and I explore the beach. I asked myself: in this beach scenario, was there any substantive difference between flying a drone and a model airplane? Another thought occurred to me: I take photographs of unsuspecting people on Oregon’s public beaches all the time. They frequently accompany columns appearing in multiple publications, including this one. I get paid for them. This type of documentation in public places and dissemination via media is legal, but in this case, my case, is it ethical? Shouldn’t visitors to a public beach have some expectation of privacy? Particularly those visitors in obvious psychic distress? These are the people I often observe (and sometimes interact with) on the beach because the ocean attracts them like nothing else in the world. I want to believe I’m not exploiting these people, that my writing and photography assaying them in real time has helped me and readers uniquely reflect upon important personal and cultural issues. Perhaps that’s pure conceit and I’m nothing more than the equivalent

of an improperly used, invasive drone. An editorial drone; I don’t like the sound of that at all. Would I like someone stealthily observing me doing something demonstrative at the beach, taking my photo, and then wrapping up the moment in a package suitable for media consumption that generates a profit for some person or corporate entity? No, I wouldn’t like it at all. Perhaps the time has come to leave people alone

The Super Bowl solution J

anuary 2007, I was watching from my standing room only “seat” as the Seahawks were about to lose to the Cowboys in my first playoff game. It was important stuff and I was trying very hard to pay attention to the play on the field — though admittedly this is difficult for me to do as my eyes tend to glaze over rather often. It might be something to do with the fact that they always seem to be stopping for something. A penalty. A commercial. Time out. An owie. Suddenly, the crowd around us went nuts. “What happened?” I asked, puzzled because I really was watching. Hubs, who was about to expire with pure joy, shouted something to the effect of ‘Oh my god, Romo just flubbed the kick.’ Or bobbled the ball or fumbled the snap.’ Something like that. And that was my last live game. After two decades of following the big guy to games in Philly, to Foxboro, the Meadowlands, Denver and Seattle, I was done. Football does not come naturally to me. Oh, I get touchdowns and field goals, incompletes and out of bounds, but beyond that, I’m kinda lost. Still every year, I faithfully found us two tickets to at least one game a season. I developed coping mechanisms early on — as in the Sunday paper and a good book. Once, at a Broncos game, I read til the third quarter. I also sipped a couple of plastic cups of crappy, but very pricey, wine. Finally, I started getting into the spirit of things (even crappy wine will do that to you). After letting loose a rousing cheer, I sat and met the eyes of the man next to

Patriots fans wearing paper bags to show their disapproval. Spot the author at the far right, tooting a blue horn.

The scoreboard at Foxboro Stadium at the end of the Patriots’ 1990 defeat to the Seahawks

me gazing in wonder. “But you’ve been so good ’til now,” he said. The last Broncos game I attended, the wind chill factor was -21. In tears, I threatened the D-word. We stayed anyway. I loved tailgating at Foxboro, where fans are known to set up tables with white linens and the good tailgate china, though after parking lot players tackled the Port-a-Potty with someone in it, trapping him, they took those away. I saw the Seahawks play at Foxboro in ’90. That was year the team was so bad, they were handing out paper bags to Patriot “fans” to wear on their heads. We won 33-20. And yes, I wore a bag — despite having little clue as to the significance. Even though I no longer attend the games, I still make it a point of walking the hubs to Pioneer Square before the game and meeting him at the Bookstore Bar on his way home after. And yes, the playoff game against the Packers was phenomenal. Never hugged so many strangers in my life — except maybe at last year’s Super Bowl. For the hubs, that’s the dream game. But it took us some time to figure out how to do the Super Bowl and stay married. To him, it was Christmas, New Year’s and the Fourth of July all in one. From sun up to last call. I, of course, was bored to tears.

8 • oregoncoastTODAY.com • facebook.com/oregoncoasttoday • january 30, 2015

Finally, we brokered a deal: if he was going to watch the game, I was going to pick the place. That was Super Bowl XIX. (And yes, thank you, I do have a good memory for an old broad.) I chose the Land’s End in Homer, Alaska, a good two-hour drive from our home. I had a new camera and I spent much of the game chasing a rainbow over the Homer Spit while Joe Montana beat up on Dan Marino. That was also the year we started betting on the game and the playoffs. This year, the playoffs earned me a sweater, a blouse and a pair of shoes, though we didn’t dare bet on the Seattle/Packers game, nor last year’s Super Bowl, which means this year I will again be prizeless. These days we keep the Super Bowl celebration simple, walking across the street to Szabo’s, where we’ve been cheering with the same fans for most of our 14 years here. And yes, I’ll take my reading material, but I’ll be paying attention, too. And if a Patriots player flubs the kick or bobbles the ball, I may not understand what happened, but you can bet I’ll know when to cheer.

Get off to an early start

Harboring a desire for some fresh air? The Yachats-based Coastal Gems walking group is inviting one and all to join them for a Tuesday, Feb. 3, stroll around the harbor town of Depoe Bay. This 10K walk is rated 2b for some hills and non-paved surfaces and is difficult for wheelchairs and strollers. Walking sticks are suggested for the new, forested part of the trail. Three separate loops allow walkers to adjust the course to meet their needs. The group will meet at 8:55 am at the Yachats Commons

to carpool to Depoe Bay but walkers can also meet at the Sea Hag restaurant, 58 Hwy. 101 in Depoe Bay, at 10:15 am. The group walks in any weather, so come prepared. Pets are welcome as long as owners being a 6-foot leash, water and cleanup materials. For more information or directions, call Gene and Linda Williamson in Seal Rock at 541-5636721, Maryann Brown in Waldport at 541961-4279 or go to www. yachatscoastalgems.org.

Anyone who needs a little motivation to keep up with their New Year exercise regimen might want to set their sights on the 7th annual Lincoln City Half-Marathon & 10K, set to take place on Sunday, March 1. Community Center Director Gail Kimberling said that, in addition to being the recreation department’s largest event of the year, the race is becoming a signature event for the Central Oregon Coast. Nearly 400 runners and walkers completed the race last year, with 88 percent of the participants coming from outside Lincoln County and from as far away as Florida, Illinois, Utah and California. “The Lincoln City HalfMarathon & 10K provides an important economic boost in the slow weeks prior to Spring Break,” Kimberling said, adding, “We encourage participants to pick up their packets the day prior to the race, which means runners, walkers and their families spend the night, eat and shop locally as well. Last year, more than a third of our participants made an entire weekend of the race.” The race begins and ends at

Wapiti Park on Drift Creek Road, just south of Lincoln City, with a scenic out-andback course that winds through dense forests and along rushing streams at the base of the Coast Range. The event attracts its fair share of serious competitors, with last year’s top male and female times for the half marathon being 1:26.45 and 1:37.13 respectively. “This is clearly a competitive course, Kimberling said, “but it is also a perfect event for anyone interested in running or walking their very first 10K or

half-marathon.” Lincoln City Recreation Supervisor and co-race director Karl McShane said volunteers and sponsors are critical to organizing an event of this size. “We have amazing support from the local community for the race,” he said. “Participants are always especially impressed with the enthusiastic aid station volunteers out on the course.” Volunteers include members from several local non-profit groups, which each receive portion of race proceeds in return for their help. Price ’N Pride, Mo’s

Restaurants and Old Navy are among the local businesses providing in-kind support so far but McShane said more sponsors are needed.

A display of naked talent The Newport Performing Arts Center will host an intense theatrical experience containing a host of adult themes on Friday, Jan. 30, with a screening of “John” from DV8 Physical Theatre. Based on real-life stories, “John” combines movement and spoken word to striking effect. The project began when Lloyd Newson, DV8’s artistic director, interviewed more than 50 men, asking them frank questions, initially about love and sex. One of those men was John. What emerged was a story of crime, drug use and a struggle to survive, which led John on a journey to an unexpected place where his life converges with others. Containing adult themes, strong language and nudity, the performance is suitable for viewers 18 years and older. The screening is part of the National Theatre Live initiative, which broadcasts live performances onto big screens around the world. The performances are presented by the Oregon

Coast Council for the Arts, with support from Jeannette Hofer Fund at the Oregon Community Foundation and the City of Newport. This event is hosted by Mary Eastman and Marc Maislen. The screening will begin at 7

pm at the center, 777 W. Olive Street. Tickets, $15.50 for adults, $12.50 for seniors and $10.50 for students, are available online at www.coastarts.org, at the PAC box office or by calling 541-265-ARTS (2787).

It’s ’plane to see Tillamook’s air museum has a big future

By Patrick Alexander Oregon Coast TODAY

S

tanding in the massive hanger of Tillamook’s air museum and looking up through the cavernous stillness to the ceiling some 192 feet above leaves no room for doubt. This is the cathedral of the Oregon Coast. But this cathedral is not carved from stone and nor does it honor any god or king. Rather, this magnificent structure stands as a monument to the ingenuity of the men who built it almost entirely from wood in nine rain-drenched months in a nation at war and under siege. Finished in 1943, the hanger was one of two constructed at the Tillamook Naval Air Station to house K Class surveillance blimps tasked with spotting Japanese submarines. In concert with their German allies in the Atlantic, subs from the Imperial Japanese Navy were playing havoc with US supply lines, destroying some 454 merchant ships in the year before the blimp program became active. The next year, with blimps patrolling from both the East and West coasts, that number dropped to about 40. “They had an incredible track record,” said air museum curator Christian Gurling. Each blimp was crewed by a team of 10, who would scour the ocean surface

The Aerospacelines Mini Guppy is the one remaining Jack Erickson airplane still on display at the museum, largely due to the fact that it is almost impossible to move. The ’plane is currently set to remain at the site through at least 2016. • TODAY photo

for signs of submarine periscopes; staying aloft for up to three days at a time as they escorted convoys and patrolled the coast. The crews would work, eat and sleep in 40foot gondolas that, despite being the size of a bus, were dwarfed by the 252-foot-long, 80-foot-diameter balloon above. To house these vast vessels, the US Navy commissioned a network of 17 blimp hangers on the East and West coasts — an effort that required huge amounts of manpower. “They were advertising all the way out in the Midwest, looking for workers to come out and build these hangers,” Gurling said. That industriousness paid off, with Tillamook’s second and equally gargantuan hanger being completed in just 27 days. Hanger A, as it was called, burned down in 1992, leaving Hanger B as one of just seven surviving blimp program hangers in the nation and the only one that is open to the public. Having housed the air museum since 1994, Hanger B is now in the midst of reinventing itself following the decision by airplane collector Jack Erickson to relocate his ’planes to Madras, Oregon. The Port of Tillamook Bay, which had leased the building to Erickson, has stepped in to manage the facility, officially called the Naval Air Station Tillamook Museum. The museum’s new executive director, Liz Marcum, said bringing in new aircraft to complement the current display of about

20 ’planes and helicopters is just one of several items in her in tray. “I’m interested in focusing on the history of this place,” she said. “This building is a treasure.” In her previous role at Portland’s Pittock Mansion museum, Marcum developed a program of behind-the-scenes tours — an idea that she and Gurling have adapted for the air museum. The first tour took place earlier this month, giving visitors the chance to see all kinds of nooks and crannies, including ladders that run up inside each of the concrete columns to the roof and an old utility tunnel that used to connect Hanger B to its ill-fated sister building. “You can see really what happened here in the ’40s when the navy was here,” Marcum said. Marcum also plans to bring in rotating exhibits, either developed by the air museum or on loan from other institutions. Staff are currently working on an exhibit about the construction of the hanger itself,

sorting through thousands of photos on loan from the Tillamook County Pioneer Museum. Thinking big — really big — Marcum is also hoping to restore one of the K Class blimps for display within the hanger and is looking into the idea of having a replica gondola constructed to give visitors an idea of the crew’s working conditions. Gurling said the hanger, unmissable with its 100-foot-tall letters, has always done a good job of drawing in visitors from Highway 101. “They would stop here out of sheer curiosity,” he said, adding: “It’s history housing history.” And with historical buildings comes maintenance — and lots of it. With a roof that spans more than 11 acres, it comes as little surprise that there are a few leaks here and there, although nothing that is causing any damage to the exhibits. A more pressing problem is the hanger Continued on Pg. 15

doors, which have deteriorated to the point that staff are only opening them when absolutely necessary. With each of the six doors weighing somewhere between 30 and 42 tons apiece, repairs are a major job and one for which the museum is seeking grants. Gurling said he is amazed that the wooden structure has stood up so well in the face of 72 years of Oregon Coast weather. While some of the other blimp hangers across the country fell into neglect, Tillamook’s hangers were fortunate to be in pretty much constant use after World War II came to an end in 1945. For the first few years after the war, both buildings were used to store surplus aircraft, which were flown in from all

over the world and crammed into the cavernous structures. After the Navy pulled out of Tillamook in 1948, the County took on responsibility for the buildings, famously staging a 1950 air show during which two pilots flew their AT6 Texans right through Hanger B. The vast buildings went on to find various other tenants, including lumber companies and aircraft developers. In 1992, acting as a hay silo proved to be the undoing of Hanger A, which burned to the ground after a fire of unknown origin swept quickly through the 130,000 bales and destroyed the building’s wood skeleton. Hanger B is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places and preserving the iconic building is a top priority for

the museum staff. Gurling said many area residents have fond memories of the structure, including one of the museum volunteers who used to sneak into the old building, climb the stairs and run the length of the catwalks, 137 feet above the hanger floor. “To think about losing something like that would break people’s hearts,” he said. Naval Air Station Tillamook Museum is located just south of Tillamook on Hanger Road. If you miss it, you really shouldn’t be driving. It is open from 9 am to 5 pm daily.

in concert

If the Schubert fits — play it The music of Franz Schubert will be presented in a setting that would have been familiar to the prolific Austrian composer himself as the Oregon Coast Chamber Music Society hosts an intimate piano concert on Saturday, Jan. 31. The concert, set in a private oceanview home in Depoe Bay, will see soprano Amy Hansen and collaborative pianist Cary Lewis present one of their favorite repertoires — the “Schubertiades.” The duo will perform the selection of songs — ranging from the well-known to the more unique operatic Italian pieces — set to piano in a home setting as Schubert is known to have done for his close-knit circle of friends in early19th Century Vienna. Hansen, an accomplished vocalist, graduated with honors from Oberlin Conservatory and has performed as a resident artist of the Portland Opera and in prestigious concert halls across the U.S. and around the world. Oregon audiences have enjoyed her performances at the Cascade Music Festival, the Astoria Music Festival, the Portland Opera and other prominent venues. Blessed with a clear, rich, vibrant voice, Hansen said she finds great pleasure in tackling Schubert’s works. “His incredible knack for setting a poem, evoking nature, motion and weather in the piano accompaniment, and stirring the listener’s heart with clear feeling make singing his songs thrilling,” she said. Cary Lewis is in constant demand as a collaborative pianist and has

Amy Hansen

performed with many well-known artists. He, too, has performed in famous concert halls in the U.S. and abroad. He has been a member of various trios and chamber music groups including the acclaimed Lanier Trio of which he was a co-founder and which produced an album of Dvorak’s Trios hailed by TIME magazine as one of the 10 best musical CDs of any kind in 1993. Lewis is the director of chamber music for the Astoria Music Festival. The duo will round out the concert with songs by contemporary American composer Ned Rorem, whose songs also reflect on the human heart. The Jan. 31 concert will begin at 3 pm, with tickets priced at $25 apiece. For reservations and directions, contact Mickey Boersma at 541-7652474 or mboersma@centurylink.net or Laurel Young at 541-765-7770 or laureljyoung@hotmail.com.

A little bit (old) country You know you have quality country music when you can bring home top honors from a songwriting contest held deep in the heart of… England? Yep, England. Coventry to be precise, home of the 2014 UK Songwriting Contest, judged by such British pop royalty as Sir Elton John, Sir Paul McCartney and Sting (whose lack of a knighthood might have something to do with his refusal to use a second name). It was at this prestigious competition that Tillamook County singersongwriter Joe Wrabek took firstplace honors in the Country Music category with his song, “Playing in the Ruins.” And Wrabek will bring that award-winning, old-school Joe W rabeck country style to Manzanita’s Hoffman Center on Saturday, Jan. 31, playing songs that ring with clever humor and thoughtful irreverence. No subject is taboo for Wrabeck, whose gigs have been known to produce not only giggles and guffaws but tears of laughter, too.

Russ Hosley and Jane Dunkin of Two Crows Joy

Joining Wrabeck on stage will be local duo Two Crows Joy, with Russ Hosley and Jane Dunkin performing songs newly released album titled “Hope & Truth & Dare.”

Hosley’s original Americana compositions contain elements of rock, country, blues and Celtic. Together, he and Dunkin bring the music to life with guitars, fiddle, mandolin and sweet vocal harmonies. For more information, go to twocrowsjoymusic. com. Doors open at 6:30 pm with the music beginning at 7 pm, 594 Laneda Avenue. Admission is $7 on the door, with refreshments and goodies available at no charge.

A hole lot of music — on recorder Unusual instruments will belt out seldom-heard songs at two Oregon Coast Recorder Society concerts scheduled for this Sunday and next in Lincoln City and Newport. Musicians will take to the stage on Sunday, Feb. 1, at Lincoln City’s St. Peter the Fisherman Lutheran Church and again on Sunday, Feb. 8, at the First Presbyterian Church of Newport in a pair

of concerts to benefit local food pantries. The performers will play several sizes of recorder, plus gemshorn, cello, violin, guitar and percussion, in pieces from Renaissance to contemporary times. The lineup will include a fanfare by Morin, a twochoir “Gloria” by Dufay, dances by Brade and Lully, folk tunes from the British Isles, a Hungarian dance, two contemporary pieces for

recorder and a rousing singalong. After the performance, the audience will have an opportunity to take a closer look at some unusual instruments and talk with the players. Donations of nonperishable food items, checks or cash are accepted as admission. Both concerts will begin at 3 pm. St. Peter the Fisherman Lutheran Church is located

at 1226 SW 13th Street, at the junction with Highway 101 in Lincoln City. The First Presbyterian Church of Newport is at 227 NE 12th Street. The Oregon Coast Recorder Society rehearses every week and is open to recorder players or other musicians interested in early music.

A rose by any other name... ...sounds just as good, as Édith Piaf tribute comes to Lincoln City

T

Édith Piaf

his year would have marked the 100th birthday of famed French cabaret singer Édith Piaf, whose 1946 hit “La Vie en Rose” captured the optimism of a society emerging from World War II and launched Piaf to international stardom. As a tribute to the work of Piaf and the French chanson tradition, chanteuse Siri Vik will perform her cabaret concert, “La Vie en Rouge” the Lincoln City Cultural Center on Saturday, Jan. 31. “Édith Piaf was, with her voice, expression and passion, the embodiment of a great fulcrum point in the grand and tender, ancient tradition of French popular song: the chanson,” Vik said. “At the midway point of the 20th century, she was the culmination of generations of wild, sometimes tortured, and supremely artistic cabaret singers — women and men who dared to bring the grit and sensuality and sheer emotion of real life to the stage. Piaf was warrior and a tramp. She lived large — dangerously and fearlessly, spiritually; on the edge of all the blessings and tragedies one life

could hope to hold. We celebrate this life and this voice — a voice which spoke for so many.” Like Piaf ’s classic chanson “La Vie en Rose,” Vik’s cabaret “La Vie en Rouge,” celebrates all that is bold and raw, grand and nostalgic, tender and beautiful in the music and memory of Piaf and her fellow French chansonniers. The performance, part of the center’s Weekender Concert Series, features Vik accompanied by Nathalie Fortin on piano and accordion; Jesse Cloninger on reeds and melodica; Dusty Carlson on bass; Nick Hamel on guitar; and Adam Carlson on drums. Tickets for “La Vie en Rouge” are $18 in advance and $20 at the door and available by calling 541-994-9994 or online at lincolncity-culturalcenter.org. Doors will open at 6:30 pm with the music starting at 7 pm, 540 NE Hwy. 101. 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.

in concert Vik-story is yours Having won Grand Prize at the International Lotte Lenya Competition in her previous career as an opera singer, Siri Vik has long held a love and a knack for the theatrical, heady, gritty, heartbreaking and the absurd in songs that ride that line between classical, jazz, pop and punk styles. She was voted into the “Best of ” Vocalist Category by Eugene Weekly in 2012 and its final year, 2013. Last year, she recorded an album of eclectic pop covers with pianist Dario LaPoma and the jazz quartet YamaYama, which will be released before year’s end. Vik also recorded a Rodgers & Hart EP in 2012 and the year prior, a full album of her French chanson revue, “La Vie en Rose.” A senior voice instructor at Lane Community College, Vik began her performance career as an opera singer; she received a master’s degree in Vocal Performance at the renowned Cincinnati College Conservatory of Music and performed lead operatic roles for Cincinnati Opera Outreach, Opera Theater of Lucca, Italy, Eugene Opera and Portland’s Bel Canto Northwest.

learn a little Ever felt like making a bird? Lincoln City’s Connie Hansen Garden is a great place to sit awhile and watch the birds come and go. But, on Saturday, Feb. 7, visitors will have the opportunity to take a bird home, too. A bird-felting workshop from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service will allow participants to try their hand at the ancient art form by creating a miniature version of a Dusky Canada Goose or an American Robin. Volunteer Lee Sliman will show how recreate these two winter residents in felt form as well as giving pointers on their habits and anatomy. The fish and wildlife service

will provide all the supplies but a $5 donation is requested for the Connie Hansen Garden. The workshop, which will run from 11 am to 4 pm

at the garden, 1931 NW 33rd Street, is suitable for people aged 15 and older. Pre-registration is required. For details, contact Sliman at 503-812-6392.

Answering some age-old questions Advice on how to make the transition into senior or assisted living will be on offer in Lincoln City this Saturday, Jan. 31, as Hillside Place Senior Living hosts its “Aging Ain’t For Wimps” seminar. Hillside Place Executive Director Tonya Hamilton said the event aims to help educate seniors and their families about the difference between assisted living and nursing homes as well as the costs involved in senior care. “Most people only think about senior living or assisted after an emergency situation has occurred and begin the transition only because they have to,” she said. “It can be overwhelming and many families make life-changing decisions under intense pressure.” Hamilton said the seminar will offer advice and game plans to help people plan for the cost of long-term care. “People don’t have to be rich,” she said. “They just have to prepare.” The seminar will include presentations from several local professionals, including Mike Roy of Lincoln City Realty; Gregory S. Ernst, attorney at law; and Misty Ness of Bryan P. Fitzsimmons, CPA.

Don and Sheila Carr, a local retired couple will briefly share their own retirement experience and what they did well along with what they could have done better. More professionals will be on hand to answer questions after the presentations, including Claude E. McCurry of New York Life; Duane Silbernagel of Waddell & Reed; and Kathy McDonald of Eagle Home Mortgage. “It’s important to know that there are so many more options for families and seniors than even just a few years ago,” Hamilton said. “Living well into advanced age doesn’t mean laying around in a nursing home anymore. It’s about making friends and being a living heritage for your kids, grandkids and great-grandkids. Our seniors here thrive and have lots of fun. We want to make sure that families get the information they need to help their loved ones thrive, too.” “Aging Ain’t For Wimps” will begin at 2 pm at Hillside Place Senior Living, right behind the Hilltop Inn Restaurant at 1400 SE 19th Street Lincoln City. Refreshments will be served. For more information, call Joy at 541-9948028.

learn a little

A star speaker

Newport hosts corporate power workshop Feb. 2 A Monday, Feb. 2, workshop at Newport Public Library will aim to give citizens the tools they need to make their voices heard on contentious topics such as genetically modified crops, pesticides, fracking, factory farming and water privatization. Workshop leader Kai Huschke, northwest organizer for the Community Environmental Defense Fund, said communities opposed such activities often find they lack the legal authority to reject them. Huschke said students can expect to learn how the legal system is set up to favor

corporate interests and what happens when communities try to find remedy within that system. The workshop will also look at steps communities are taking to remedy the situation, including the introduction of “community bills of rights.” The workshop will run from 6 to 9 pm at the library, 35 NW Nye Street. Admission is free but donations are gladly accepted to cover travel and publication expenses. To sign up or for more information, call María Sause at 541-961-6385 or e-mail mkrausster@gmail.com.

The mysterious wasting disease that has devastated sea star populations along the West Coast will be the subject of a Thursday, Feb. 5, presentation hosted by the MidCoast Watersheds Council in Newport. Dr. Steve Rumrill, shellfish program leader for Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife in Newport, will deliver the talk on Sea Star Wasting Syndrome, thought to be responsible for a mass die off of West Coast sea stars in 2013 and 2014. This most recent outbreak was of unparalleled severity for the syndrome, a poorly understood disease that appears periodically among populations of asteroid echinoderms. As well as giving a summary of the current conditions on the West Coast, Rumrill will provide a description of the actions taken to monitor progression of the outbreak, identify the causes for the disease and determine the ecological consequences of the mass-mortality of sea stars in the rocky intertidal and subtidal zones.

The effects of Sea Star Wasting Syndrome

A marine biologist, estuarine ecologist and invertebrate zoologist who has worked along the coasts of Oregon, Washington, British Columbia and California for the past 35 years, Rumrill is an expert in echinoderms, the species that includes sea stars and sea urchins. He earned his PhD in zoology from the University of Alberta where he investigated the population biology and

larval ecology of Pacific Northwest echinoderms. He conducted post-doctoral research at the Smithsonian Marine Lab on sea stars and at Harvard University on sea urchins before moving to the Oregon Coast in 1990. Since 2012, he has been employed as the shellfish program leader for the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife where he has

statewide responsibilities for the conservation of shellfish populations and management of the commercial and recreational shellfisheries. The presentation will start at 6:30 pm in the public meeting room of the Central Lincoln PUD building located at 2129 N Coast Highway, across from Safeway in Newport. Refreshments will be served.
