Hide and Seek: Environmental DNA for Pacific Lamprey Conservation w/ Dr. Kellie Carim

Submitted By: info@nehalemwatershed.org – Click to email about this post
On November 10th, 2022 Dr Kellie Carim, Research Ecologist at the Aldo Leopold Wilderness Research Institute, will share her recent work on mapping Pacific Lamprey populations using environmental DNA sampling. Environmental DNA sampling, also known as eDNA, is the process of taking water samples and sequencing the DNA found there to identify what species are using that area of a stream or river.

In 2021, Dr Carim, the Lower Nehalem Watershed Council, and other regional partners coordinated to sample for Pacific Lamprey in the Nehalem Basin. All together, they sampled 42 locations within the watershed! Those samples were then processed by Dr Carim in her lab at the Aldo Leopold Wilderness Research Institute. The result is a better map of Pacific Lamprey distribution in the Nehalem Basin.

Dr. Kellie Carim is a Research Ecologist at the Aldo Leopold Wilderness Research Institute in Missoula, MT. She received her B.A. in Biology from Carleton College and her Ph.D. in Fish and Wildlife Biology from the University of Montana. Her research combines genetics tools and information, as well as aquatic ecology to inform stewardship of wilderness areas, and to understand the benefits of wilderness to broader landscapes and ecosystems. Her research interests are broad and include engaging diverse partnerships to address conservation and management of aquatic resources. In her spare time, she enjoys cross-country ski racing and spending time outdoors with her partner, Tyler, and her best (canine) friend, Ravi.

The talk will be on November 10th at 7 pm, hosted on Zoom, and is free to the public. The zoom link is us02web.zoom.us/j/84302984100 or on the Facebook event at www.facebook.com/lnwc1. You can also contact the watershed council at info@nehalemwatershed.org. A recording of this presentation will also be posted on the LNWC’s YouTube channel with our other recorded presentations.

EIGHT TREASURES QIGONG
In November I will be teaching Eight Treasures Qigong in the beautiful sanctuary space at St Catherine’s church in Nehalem

It is one of the earliest Qigong forms in China dating back to the 12th century when it was developed to help Buddhist Monks prevent problems with joints and tendons.The practice of Eight Treasures allows us to move more freely and keep qi or life energy moving throughout our body.
It is designed to build strong bones, make tendons more flexible, and strengthen organ-energy systems.

I also will be teaching a self massage practice, calming breathing techniques, and will end with a compassionate heart meditation.

Wear something comfortable to move in.
Masks are not required but please wear one if that makes you more comfortable.

A little bit about me…. I became interested in Qigong over 30 years ago. In the last 10 years I have studied with Ling Gui International Healing Qigong School and am certified in several of their Medical Qigong forms. I love to share this powerful healing tool.
Warmly,
Janet Maher

Message from the Band: Edge of the West

Submitted By: qulwater@msn.com – Click to email about this post
We are so fortunate that this band is making the trip out to the coast to play a very special show October 29th at the White Clover Grange, doors at 6, band goes on at 8 and will play two sets.

Tickets are available at tickettomato.com

The band just told us that they are adding keyboard player Ken Margolis for this tour. Ken has played with Bo Diddely and the band Cracker.
This was a very nice late addition and will certainly help keep the room jumping.

From the band:

“Hey Edge of the West family and friends,
Hope the change of seasons is doing you right. Feels about right here. We just wanted to let you know about some cool shows we’re playing this Fall, around the SF Bay Area and Monterey Bay regions and up through the Pacific Northwest. This Sunday in historic Point Richmond, CA we play an all-Grateful-Dead night at a newer venue – the Baltic Kiss, where there has been a weekly Dead Sundays event developing. Then, back playing our usual eclectic repertoire, we head North for a musical expedition through Medford, Eugene, Manzanita OR, Tacoma WA and Cave Junction OR, October 27-31. This’ll be a fun adventure. We’ll have the big version of the band with Professor Ken Margolis on keys, pedal steel master Charlie Joe Wallace and of course Bill Laymon, Jim Lewin and Marty Carpenter holding down the core. In November we return to California to team back up with master songwriter-troubadour and Platinum-seller Lacy J Dalton for a pair of shows presented by Santa Cruz’s own KSQD Radio: Moe’s Alley 11/17 and in Carmel Valley 11/19. Details below.
We sure to appreciate you keeping us in your universe. Thanks for keeping tabs on us. Come on down to a show when it works for you. Music events keep us together. And have a warm and cozy Autumn, wherever you may be.
Best, Edge of the West

Hoffman Center for the Arts presents Printmaking Workshop

Submitted By: toni@rbogen.com – Click to email about this post
Printmaking Workshop with Ben Rosenberg
October 27-29 | 10:00am-4:00pm
Tuition $240 | Materials fee $25
Hoffman Center | 594 Laneda Avenue | Manzanita
This class requires proof of vaccination

Monotypes, Monoprints, Collagraphs and More! Oh My!

Join Ben Rosenberg as he introduces the principles and practices of creating monoprints and monotypes. Monotype is a distinctive print made by pressing paper against a painted or inked surface. When creating a monotype, it cannot be replicated again. It is a highly individual creation, much like painting, as it allows for spontaneity, “happy accidents,” and working along a plate surface to bring a wide range of marks that can be obtained through the creation of an image.

Topics include basic theory and use of color and composition in working with water-based, mixed media, and a variety of surfaces. This workshop will involve both conceptual approaches and direct observations using still life, the figure, abstract composition, and a variety of student investigative resources.

You will explore various monotype styles, techniques, and media used with rollers, stencils, textured surfaces, brushes, and various inventive wiping tools to create unusual one-of-a-kind prints.

Through lectures, demonstrations, discussions, and printing time, participants will develop a command of the technical aspects of monotypes and monoprints (color mixing, paint application, materials), and the properties of creating an image (line and shape, color concept, composition, abstraction) and an understanding of how formal choices create meaning.

Each day will begin with a lecture and discussion, followed by an afternoon for studio time. This class is a place where you can engage your own artistic interest and explore your personal voice.

Bring your ideas and be willing to take them further. It is a time and place to soak up everything you can and take risks.

Bill has played with many great bands and musicians over the years and North Coast Music Project is excited to have him perform for us locally.

Bill Laymon is a case in point, when the notes are flying thick and fast onstage, you can count on him to be there, paying attention and responding with brightness and wit.”
