Close encounters of the coastal kind
Driftwood Public Library will host its eighth annual Coastal Encounters series of lectures. Presentations share a focus on coastal living, and presenters talk on a range of subjects from local history to activities both residents and visitors can enjoy on the coast. The first presenter in the series will be Dave Metz of Cottage Grove. Metz is the author of “Crossing the Gates of Alaska: One Man, Two Dogs, 600 Miles off the Map.” The book follows a death-defying trek across the Alaskan arctic. Metz will talk about wilderness hiking, with a focus on coastal wilderness areas, survival skills including identifying edible plants and animals, and basic gear. He will speak 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, May 7. Bill Lackner, who was the original inspiration for the series, will visit the library 6 p.m. Tuesday, May 14, to do a presentation on clamming on the Oregon coast. The clamming presentation will be followed by a trip with Lackner to Siletz Bay to hunt purple varnish clams 9 a.m. Wednesday, May 15. Lackner will return with a presentation on crabbing two weeks later at 6 p.m. Tuesday, May 28. A crabbing field trip will take place 9 a.m. Wednes-
day, May 29 along the North Shore of Siletz Bay. On Tuesday, May 21, Caroline Brooks, program manager for the Sitka Center for Art and Ecology, will give a talk about the center. Founded in 1970 by Frank and Jane Boyden, the Sitka Center occupies roughly an acre of ocean-view property donated by the developer of Cascade Head Ranch, an environmentally sensitive residential community at the mouth of the Salmon River estuary. The public is invited to visit the Sitka Center for a guided tour of its facilities 1 p.m. Thursday, May 23. All four programs at the library are free, but those interested in taking part in Lackner’s clamming or crabbing field trips must purchase an Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife Shellfish Harvester’s License for each member of the family who wishes to participate prior to the trips. All lectures are open to the public. Driftwood Public Library is located on the second floor of the Lincoln City Civic Center at 801 SW Highway 101 in Lincoln City. Any questions regarding the series can be directed to the circulation supervisor, Ken Hobson, at 541 996-1242 or via e-mail at kenh@lincolncity.org
Four one-act comedies will tickle your funny bone The Tillamook Association for the Performing Arts (TAPA) and TLC Federal Credit Union presents “You Know I Can’t Hear You When the Water Is Running,” a collection of four one-act comedies, opening Friday, May 10. Written by Robert Anderson and directed locally by Chris Chiola, each play uses humor to explore morality, relationships, and taboo subjects. In Act I, “The Shock of Recognition,” a playwright and his producer flirt with the concept of full frontal male nudity on stage, and if it can or will be done by an eager actor. Don’t worry though; that is left up to the audience’s imagination. Act II, “The Footsteps of Doves,” examines the confines of the marital bed – literally. The play follows a couple who, after 25 years of marriage, is considering going from a double bed to two single beds. Act III, “I’ll Be Home For Christmas,” confronts parents’ issues with a pleasure-seeking teen, a dating daughter and a third child’s college problems and how these issues strain a marriage. In the final play, Act IV’s “I’m Herbert,” two aging love birds sit on their porch with failing memories of their past lives and loves. Some material may not be suitable for all ages. Opening night includes a champagne reception, with a complimentary beverage and appetizers. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. at the Barn Community Playhouse, 12th and Ivy streets in Tillamook. Shows start promptly at 7 p.m. Other performances are at 7 p.m. Friday and Saturdays, May 11, 17, 18, 24 and 25, and at 2 p.m. Sundays, May 19 and 26. Reserved seating is available through Diamond Art Jewelers at 503-842-7940. Tickets are $15 for adults, $10 for seniors or students, and $40 for a family of four.

Broom Buster volunteers needed to fight invasive plant Scotch broom is a non-native species on the coast that originally hails from western and central Europe. It has become a ubiquitous part of landscape on the coast as it rapidly invades disturbed or sandy habitats. While it does sport attractive yellow foliage in the spring, the plant has become a huge problem because it displaces native plant species, provides minimal habitat for wildlife, and threatens the biodiversity of our coastal habitats. The problem is all the more evident this time of year, when the plant is in full bloom and the extent of the infestation is visible. South Beach State Park is looking for

On fish tacos at Lincoln City’s May 4 cook off Patrick Alexander Oregon Coast TODAY
O
ne day, thousands of years ago, some bright spark came up with the idea of wrapping cooked fish in a tortilla and the fish taco began its long journey to becoming the West Coast’s signature dish. Entrepreneur Ralph Rubio is widely credited with popularizing a Mexican version of the dish in the U.S. when he opened a San Diego taco stand in 1983, using a recipe he picked up on a trip to San Felipe. Now, the fish taco is a mainstay of West Coast cuisine, with so many restaurants from San Diego to Seattle claiming their recipe is the best that any attempt to sample all the contenders would be a gut-busting endeavor. Fortunately for waistlines everywhere, the Culinary Center in Lincoln City makes it somewhat easier to compare the offerings of the Central Oregon Coast with its annual Fish Taco Cook Off, taking place this year on Saturday, May 4. The contest will see chefs from six coastal restaurants compete for votes in the People’s Choice contest. Among the contenders is Don Williams, co-owner of the Nelscott Café, who will be taking part in the event for the third year running, despite the fact that fish tacos are not a regular menu item at the café. Williams, who is a director of the Lincoln City Chamber of Commerce as well as president of the Bay Area Merchants Association, said he is thinking up a new taco recipe in order to support the culinary center. “It’s a huge part of Lincoln City,” he said. “It not only serves visitors but it’s a really nice local event.” He said the center’s four regular cook offs — mushroom, jambalaya and chowder as well as fish taco — serve offers a huge boost for local businesses by drawing people to town. “My role is getting people to come back,” he said. One way to do that would be to offer them the perfect fish
taco, something Williams said relies on striking the right balance between the acidity of the citrus mayo, the heat of the sauce and the savory taste of the fish. Some taco devotees swear by grilling and other will only accept frying, but Williams said both methods have merit, with fried fish offering a crunchy contract to soft lettuce, while grilling opens the door to marinating the fish for a whole new world of flavor. How to ruin a taco? Too much heat in the sauce, he said, or so much cilantro that it overpowers the delicate flavor of the fish. But for Williams, the biggest mistake a chef can make, especially at a buffet-style event like a cook-off, is to go heavy on the sauce — forgetting that they have effectively created a gutter with the rolled tortilla.
J’s Fish and Chips, Lincoln City Pelican Pub & Brewery, Pacific City Vivian’s Restaurant, Lincoln City Nelscott Cafe, Lincoln City Deli 101, Lincoln City Black Market Gourmet, Coos Bay Be sure to leave treats from Captain Dan’s Pirate Pastry Shop and My Petite Sweet as well as beer and wine from Nelscott Wine Shop.
“The second you raise that up to your mouth, if all that sauce comes out, no matter how good it is, you have ruined someone’s clothing,” he said. As anyone who has eaten at the Nelscott Café and experienced creations like the Peanut Butter Bacon Burger knows, Williams is not the sort of chef who’s happy to churn out a standard recipe. While the final details of this year’s entry will only be decided the day before the contest, Williams said he is thinking along the lines of a tropical fish taco. “That doesn’t mean I’m going to have angel fish,” he said. “I want to make that clear: there will be no aquarium fish in my taco.” With ingredients like habañero, pineapple and possibly coconut milk, Williams hopes to make a taco that will stand out from the crowd while offering tasters’ palates a break. Whether its cabezon in Mexico, Cod in Alaska, or Catfish in Arkansas, the fish taco is a dish that invites experimentation by chefs keen to inject a little local flavor. Williams said Oregon’s iconic salmon would likely be too strong a flavor to meld well in a taco but that the area’s mellow-tasting rockfish is perfect for the job. “Once we educate people on how good it is then they are hooked,” he said. “No pun intended.” The event runs from 10 am to 2 pm at the culinary center, located on the fourth floor of the Lincoln Square Civic Complex at 801 SW Hwy. 101, Lincoln City. Parking is available on the third floor of City Hall, accessible from SW 11th Street. At noon, Chef Graciella Polley will demonstrate how to cook savory empanadas; moving on to dessert empanadas at 1:15 pm. People going early should be prepared for crowds, and feel free to start at whichever booth has the shortest line.

A tribute to cool jazz musician Dave Brubeck The combined voices of the Oregon Coast Community College Choir and the Central Coast Chorale will present “A Tribute To Dave Brubeck,” a benefit concert at 2 p.m. Sunday, May 5 on the main stage at the Newport Performing Arts Center, 777 W Olive St. in Newport. Brubeck died Dec. 5, 2012, just a few days short of his 92nd birthday. “He will be remembered for his ‘cool’ and ‘progressive’ style of jazz,” states Central Coast Chorale publicist Carol Duvall, “although he was exposed to a vast repertoire of musical styles and was a respected composer of orchestral and sacred music. And, he also wrote soundtracks for television.” Ramona Martin and Daniel Sampson will play pre-performance music on stage beginning at 1:45 p.m. Both choirs, under the direction of Mary Lee Scoville, will sing “They All Sang Yankee Doodle,” a little-known chart by Brubeck, with Jessica Treon and Milo Gramaans accompanying on two grand pianos. “They All Sang Yankee Doodle,” in Brubeck’s own words, “is a personal view of American
history.” “Yankee Doodle” with variations is the most concise way to describe the piece, which was commissioned by the New Haven Symphony Orchestra to commemorate Connecticut’s participation in the United States Bicentennial. The song will be the concert finale. Women of Note will join the two choirs to sing one of Brubeck’s most famous compositions, “Take Five.” Scoville and Treon will also play two movements from Brubeck’s “Points on Jazz” for two pianos. Rounding out the concert will be wellknown and popular jazz group Perpetua, with guest instrumentalist John Bringetto. They will perform several of Brubeck’s charts including “The Duke,” “Tangerine,” “My Favorite Things” and “In Your Own Sweet Way.” Running time for this concert will be about 1 hour and 15 minutes and will be performed without intermission. Admission is by donation and all proceeds go to the Newport Performing Arts Center for the renovation fund. For more information, contact the Newport Performing Arts Center by calling 541-2652787.

The Oregon Coast Council for the Arts invites all teachers, parents and students of Lincoln County to view students’ work in the 2013 annual Lincoln County Student Art Show.

An Opening Reception for the artists, families, teachers and the public will be from5 to 7 p.m. Friday, May 3 in the Runyan Gallery. A complete list of students will be posted and Awards for Artistic Excellence will be presented at the reception. Each year the Lincoln County Student Art Show exemplifies that the teachers around the county recognize the important benefits of art in the classroom and introduce various art projects during the school year along with core curriculum. Locals look forward to the show, and visitors are delighted by the artistic talents of our youth. The Runyan Gallery is open Tuesday through Sunday from 11 a.m. until 6 p.m. For more information, call Sally Houck, 541-265-6569 or email shouck@coastarts.org
Volunteer to help the children’s arts The next Exhibition Coffee is looking for volunteers and anyone interested in exploring volunteering opportunities at the Newport Visual Arts Center will be 11 a.m. Thursday, May 9. The program will be about children’s art. Oregon Coast Council for the Arts is seeking new volunteers from noon to 4 p.m. on Tuesday through Friday afternoons to welcome visitors to the Upstairs Gallery at the Newport Visual Arts Center and at other times, to help with OCCA receptions, events, data entry and projects.

For more information about the exhibits or volunteering, call Sally Houck at 541-265-6569 or email vac@coastarts.org
Comedy and tragedy on display Let There Be Arts has mounted a show of comedy and tragedy masks created by local elementary school students, which will be on display at Theatre West, 3536 Oregon Coast Highway in Lincoln City, during the spring production of “ Sin, Sex and the CIA” May 2 to 25. The project is a result of a collaboration between the two organizations and will serve as an inspiration for Theatre West artist Idaliise Putansu to extend the current mask mural on the outside of the building. The masks were made during a special session of the Taft Elementary 21st Century after school program coordinated by Let There Be Arts. Local artist Krista Eddy worked with 20 students in fourth to sixth grades, where each child sculpted two masks out of specialized paper mache clay. They were instructed to create their version of the classic comedy and tragedy images and then paint them using only black and white acrylic. When they were finished, Eddy and LTBA director Kaline Klaas led them in theater exercises and helped them create improvisational skits using the appropriate mask. The students had fun and the drama activities extended several weeks beyond the schedule.

Center hosts Cinco de Mayo celebration
Make history with maritime objects
The Lincoln City Cultural Center will a Cinco de Mayo Festival Sunday, May 5 at the center, 540 NE Hwy. 101. Cinco de Mayo is celebrated nationwide to honor Mexican heritage and the contributions of the Mexican-American community. The celebrations feature vibrant cultural activities, food, music, dancing and more. Historically it celebrates the Battle of Puebla of May 5, 1862, in which the Mexicans defeated a larger French army. Five years ago, Spanish instructor José Solano organized the first Cinco de Mayo festival on the Oregon Coast. With the support of LCCC Executive Director Niki Price, he brings the festival to Lincoln City for its second year. It is part of his 2013 World Music Series, sponsored by the Lincoln City Visitor and Convention Bureau, The Westover Inns, the parent company of The Pelican Shores Inn, The Looking Glass Inn and The Shearwater Inn. This year’s festival features an exhibition of Charro horsemanship. Mexican cowboys ride Andalusian, Friesian and Azteca horses that perform intricate dances and movements. The Andalusian horses are of the same stock as the famed Lippizzaner stallions
The Lincoln County Historical Society is looking to borrow maritime-related objects for the opening exhibit of its new Pacific Maritime and Heritage Center in Newport. The show, “Ship to Shore: Objects of a Maritime Community,” is scheduled to open June 28 in the center, located in the former Scott Mansion/ Gracie’s at Smuggler’s Cove building at the bayfront. Steve Wyatt, executive director of the Lincoln County Historical Society, said that seeking loaned items for a community-based exhibit will bring in objects outside of its collection. To submit an object, call the Historical Society at 541-2657509. The deadline for offering objects and making loan arrangements is May 15.
of Vienna, and all are descendants of horses from the renowned Royal Andalusian School of Equestrian Art in Jerez de la Frontera, Spain. The Charros are scheduled to perform at 2 p.m. on the LCCC’s north lawn and parking lot, weather permitting; this is a ticketed event. At 3:30 p.m., the festival will feature the Papalotl Mexican folk dance company of Kenya Márquez, performing on stage in the auditorium in authentic costumes. Papalotl performs dances from many regions of Mexico, including Vera Cruz, Guerrero, Oaxaca, Nayarit and Jalisco. Márquez comes from a long line
of Mexican dancers and musicians. She studied at the Instituto National de Bellas Artes in Mexico City and spent six years in France, where she performed with the Ballet de la Maison de Mexique. She has toured widely in France, Mexico and the United States. At 5 p.m., flamenco guitarist José Solano and friends will round off the festival with a dynamic Tablao Flamenco concert of guitarists, singers and dancers in colorful Spanish costumes in the cultural center’s auditorium. A free piñata breaking for kids is set to begin at noon on the center’s north lawn. Mexican food will be sold throughout the festival, and a no-host indoor bar (serving beer and wine) will be available after 3:30 p.m. On the same day, the Lincoln City Farmers Market will open its outdoor season. Vendor booths will be open from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on the west lawn of the cultural center. Festival tickets are on sale at the Lincoln City Cultural Center. They are $10 in advance and $12 on day of the festival. Tickets are $5 for children and teens age 6 to 18 (in advance or day of the show), and children 5 and under admitted free. For reservations contact the Lincoln City Cultural Center at 541-994-9994.

Momiji is on a roll
Sushi just one of the offerings at newly remodeled restaurant Patrick Alexander Oregon Coast TODAY
With the spread of smart phones and social media, an interesting ethical dilemma has popped up for diners — is it rude to take a photo of your meal before digging in? At Momiji in Lincoln City, the answer is a resounding ‘no,’ with the chefs keen to show off their sushi creations for all to see. “When you have a presentation of sushi or sashimi and they take a picture and put it on Facebook, we feel so proud and honored,” sushi chef John Zhen said. “That keeps me going in the sushi.” Jacob Allen, who worked his way up from delivery driver to become assistant manager and sushi chef trainee, agreed. “I didn’t really understand it until I had a couple take a picture of one of my plates,” he said. “It’s just a really good feeling.” And it is easy to see why Momiji diners are reaching for their cameras when their dishes hit the table, with the restaurant serving elegant, colorful sushi rolls and sashimi as well as a full range of Japanese and Chinese entrees. Zhen and his brother, restaurant owner Bruce Zhen, are originally from southern China — an area with a rich culinary heritage, although not one in which sushi features prominently. It was after moving to the US that Zhen trained as a sushi chef, 16 years ago while a sophomore at high school in Portland. While a person can learn the basics in six months, he said, to get really good takes two years of training, with patience and presentation the key qualities for making great sushi. That and making sure the roll doesn’t fall apart, said Allen, adding that he restaurant’s method of steaming the rice, and then adding rice vinegar before letting it cool ensures that rolls stay in one piece on their journey from the plate to the mouth. Wrapped within or perching atop that rice could be any of the nearly 40 varieties of seafood the restaurant has delivered twice a week, on Tuesdays and Fridays, many of which cannot be found on the Oregon Coast. If the idea of raw fish makes you squeamish, fear not — Momiji offers several cooked fish sushi options, including barbecued eel, fried tilapia, tempura salmon and tempura shrimp Never tried sushi before? Just say so and Zhen will treat you to a free sample of his own personal creation — the Salem Roll. Made up of imitation crab, cream cheese and avocado, all of which are then deep fried tempura style, Zhen says the Salem Roll is Oregon’s answer to the famed California Roll, only much more flavorful. Zhen said that since he created the roll in 2005, it has gone on to become one of the most popular sushi rolls in Oregon. Unfortunately though, Zhen doesn’t get a royalty check every time another chef serves up his invention. “I didn’t think that far ahead,” he said, adding: “I could be retired!” Diners stopping by for lunch or dinner at Momiji will be glad that Zhen is still on the job, especially those who take advantage of the restaurant’s dinner sushi combos, offering two rolls from a selected list for $10.95 or one roll and two sets of nigiri sushi for the same price. Add soup and salad for a dollar extra. Other Japanese entrees include teriyaki chicken, katsu chicken

(fried chicken Japanese-style) and Oyaku Donbun, a chicken and egg dish that Zhen jokingly refers to as “mother and son cooked together.” Among the most popular Chinese entrees are the sizzling platters, which come to the table on a cast iron skillet; and the dinner combos, which include a choice of dishes including sweet and sour chicken, pork chow mein, Mongolian beef and pork fried rice. Momiji first opened in Taft in 2005, spending three years there before moving to its current location in the Tanger Outlet Cen-
ter, where it has just completed a $55,000 remodel. Allen said the restaurant stayed open throughout the remodel, which saw the installation of new floors, booths, lighting and a welcoming arch at the front door. “We had quite a few customers coming in every couple of weeks to see the changes all the way through,” he said. To accompany the remodel, the restaurant brought in a certified chef from China to revamp some of its menu items. Zhen said that, to show gratitude to its regular customers, Momiji will mark its eighth anniversary on May 24 with a buyone-get-one-free offer on all entrees and sushi rolls. Can’t make it to the restaurant? No problem, Momiji offers delivery almost anywhere within Lincoln City within 30 minutes for $3.50, with no minimum order required. And when that food arrives, don’t worry about Styrofoam; the restaurant has moved to biodegradable and recyclable packaging — just one of many ways in which Momiji is a restaurant looking to the future. Momiji is located next to the main entrance of the Tanger Outlet Center, 1500 SE East Devils Lake Road, Lincoln City. It is open daily from 10 am to 9 pm. To place an order or make a reservation, call 541-996-8886.

Discuss privacy in the digital age
We live in an age when knowledge is power. New technologies give us unprecedented access to information, but they also facilitate surveillance, with the power to collect personal information. People enjoy the convenience of having information at their ďŹ ngertips. But most people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t realize the trade oďŹ&#x20AC;: Online searches create traceable records. Many citizens have resigned themselves to an inevitable erosion of rights. Do you want to take charge of your information privacy? The American Library Association (ALA) has designated the week of May 1 to 7 as Choose Privacy Week. Choose Privacy Week invites people into a national conversation about privacy rights in a digital age. The campaign gives individuals the resources to think critically and make more informed choices about their privacy. Driftwood Public Library will host a discussion on privacy led by former librarian and current board member of the Oregon chapter of
the American Civil Liberties Union Candace Morgan at 2 p.m. Sunday, May 5. Libraries are information hubs for their communities. They are also natural centers for learning and talking about information issues, including privacy. The discussion at Driftwood Public Library will examine the historical framework and legal basis for the freedom to speak, read, view and explore ideas and information, and how the right to privacy ties into the exercising of these rights. The free discussion is open to all and sponsored by The Friends of Driftwood Public Library. Driftwood Public Library is located on the second ďŹ&#x201A;oor of the Lincoln City City Hall building, 801 SW U.S. Highway 101 (next to Price and Pride). Any questions should be directed to Ken Hobson by calling 541-996-1242 or emailing kenh@lincolncity.org

The carnival will run all four days of the festival, from 4 pm to midnight tough to shift, with market prices at an all-time low.
