Drop off locations for food which will be sent home with kids to have over the Christmas holidays can be left at Mohler Co-Op, RTI Nehalem, NCRD Recreation District, Wild in Manzanita, Nehalem Food Mart, and the Nehalem Elementary School.

Politics-The list of the unqualified, the brazenly biased, the ones who have, and are getting wealthier from, government contracts, the sexual predators, the ill informed etc, now has another nominee. Kari Lake has been named to head the worldwide news organization “ The voice of America”, which she (and trump), have maligned and criticized. Widely listened to by millions, both in this country annd around the world it provides critical news, commentary and critique of governments and happenings and is essential to the maintenance of a free press.
Our journalists and their companies provide people with the good, bad and ugly so that an informed citizenry can make healthy choices at the polls. Kari Lake joins a long list of those who would quash dissent and jail journalists and spread false conspiracies. Arizona declined to give her their support, twice! Secret on-line actors, using AI are already distorting the news and conspiracy theorists like trump and his minions will only make it worse. Call your representatives and demand better choices. Trump and the far right DO NOT hold all the cards. Be kind, but fight back against this tyranny. Our freedom depends upon it.

Dear Neighbors,

Please consider providing Christmas presents for children of families impacted by domestic violence and sexual assault. Tides of Change (formerly the Tillamook County Women’s Resource Center) offers a loving and meaningful ‘holiday shopping’ experience, providing parents who have received services from Tides of Change the opportunity to “shop” (for free) and choose donated gifts for their children.

This year Tides of Change has received far more requests from families than ever before, forty more kids than last year are in need, and we urgently need for additional gifts in order not to have to turn parents away.

Giving is easy, go to: www.tidesofchangenw.org/holiday-giving
You can shop the Tides of Change gift registry on Amazon, choose gifts that are suggested, and Amazon will deliver them to Tides of Change. That’s what I did, it took five minutes. You can also drop off unwrapped gifts for children of all ages, donate gift cards (very popular with teens) or donate money for staff to buy gifts. Gifts will be received through December 20.

It is my hope that every child in Tillamook County will receive a gift this Christmas. Having grown up in a very poor family, my brother and sister and I received gifts from charity organizations for several years when we were small. I can tell you honestly that those gifts, which may have been small things to the givers, were huge for us. I vividly remember a shiny white patent leather purse that I received one Christmas when I was about seven years old. We were fortunate to get shoes that fit; there was no money for things we did not need, like a little girl’s purse, and I would not have dreamed of asking for one. Fifty-two years later I remember that pretty white purse, and how it filled me with wonder and happiness. It made my Christmas memorable and special, and it informed the person I would become, someone who cares about those less fortunate among us, particularly children.

If you imagine that your gift of a Nerf ball or a gift card or a child’s purse won’t really make a difference, you are mistaken. One small thing freely given has the power to change a child’s life. Thank you for giving as you can.

Happy holidays to you and your loved ones,

Mary Faith Bell
Tides of Change board chair
Tillamook County Commissioner

NO, And its not Trump either! It is the Oregon governor and the Oregon legislature with a new TAX! Smile now!

By Taxpayers Association of Oregon

OregonWatchdog.com
The Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) says it has a massive budget hole of $1 billion to $1.7 billion due to a host of factors (lawsuits, declining gas tax revenue, inflation, cost over-runs, exploding labor costs, rising county needs, government pension, etc.)
ODOT actually mapped out a possible 75-cent gas tax increase plan.

Most likely ODOT will try to balance the cost with other taxes such as various DMV fees, title fees, registration fees.   Under this more likely plan, ODOT has projected out a 35-cent gas tax
.
A 35-cent gas tax is outrageous and will spike the cost of every item on the grocery and retail shelf.

A 35-cent gas tax will be on top of Oregon existing gas tax — rated in the top 10 most expensive state gas taxes in the nation.

A 35-cent gas tax will be on Oregons already high gas prices.  Data Pandas ranks Oregon as the fourth highest gas price state in 2024.
AND….
A surge of last minute votes* for Democrat challenger and labor organizer Lesly Muñoz has worked to defeat incumbent State Representative Tracy Cramer.   This secures the Democratic Party candidates at 60% vote control in both the Oregon State House and Oregon State Senate.  At the much watched 60% vote margin it is a super-majority where it is not only a comfortable lead it is also the legal threshold to pass tax increases.
* A surge of last minute votes from a dirty voter registration list sounds suspicious to me but what the heck!

We just watched The View this morning and Bill Clinton was the guest.
Shortly afterwards I saw a news story online by ABC headlined: “Bill Clinton indicates he hopes Biden doesn’t issue preemptive pardons”
WHAT??? Do they have AI making this stuff up, or is it just sloppy journalism? Worse yet, intentionally malicious?
Anyone who watched the interview knows Clinton was referring to Trump seeking retribution against his list of political enemies when Clinton said “I hope he won’t do that.”
Instead, ABC extrapolated that into something, immediately prior in the interview, Clinton specifically said he wouldn’t do! And now ABC’s headline is all over the media. Will anyone at ABC correct or retract it? “I don’t think so Tim” (as Al Borland often said on Home Improvement).
All I can say is we can do better. Meanwhile don’t let them get away with it.

“Heard on the Bench”*
Today’s episode happened at the Motor Vehicle Department. There were four us waiting our turn, 2 men and 2 women. I started out with the man and opened with, “Somehow you look familiar?”. It’s a safe subject and with my 45 years in the county, maybe they should be familiar.
It turned out he was the nephew of a man I worked closely with at the cheese factory for decades. I told him about how his uncle would wheedle me into making repairs and modifications without pesky paperwork. He got a good laugh out of my story
Then I went on to the tricky question, “How do you feel about this last election?” He gave me a “thumbs-up” sign and smiled and said. “I’m so glad we kept the Democrats out.”
When I asked him why, it was, “They’re baby-killers and want to turn all our young people gay.”
I spent a lot of time this election season with a lot of Democrats from all over and I just can’t remember any of them ever advocating any of those positions.
I responded with “I think what you call baby killing is a religious belief not all of us share. Jewish people don’t call it a baby until it draws its own breath. Maybe you’re right, maybe they’re right.”
He countered with, “I’m a born-again Christian and there’s no baby-killing in the bible.”
One of the women entered the conversation with, “What about the 10th. Egyptian plaque of killing the first-born children, in Exodus.”
A couple of numbers were called out and our group dissolved. Conversation stopped but I think we were all left with a lot to think about.
The idea of God being involved in after birth abortions never crossed my mind before. But it’s there it is, in the Bible.
Our way of “framing” defines us.
For him, it was a very simple, “Democrats are baby killers and want everybody to be gay.”
For me, it’s a very simple, “I like freedom and I don’t like government control. It’s really none of my business what a woman wants to do with her body. It’s really none of my business how someone wishes to express their sexuality. It shouldn’t be any business of the government either.”
I’d like to think I’m right, but nobody bats 1000%.

I apologize if the configuring elements of our deeply appreciated BBQ change the way these words were meant to be offered.

Peace on Earth

“Until we disarm our hearts,
the war will never stop.”
Author Unknown

I have walked down many steps
into rooms where their harnesses
hung, motionless and deeply stained.
What I have seen I cannot unsee.
I will not forget these memorials
to slow torture, nor listen to all the
repeating lies honoring our young
soldiers marketing their righteous
death. Each of us has seen the
continuing diaspora and still hear
voices that were lost, taken
for their dignity and uncommon 
sense. Remembering, let us now
welcome all the ancient fears, 
awakening to the enduring call
to heal and abandon hate.
As this is done, days will come
when we shall no longer run
from the roots of war, turning away
from what will always be true:
We can open our eyes and see.

This is about the huge metal containers where we open that heavy lid and put all kinds of clothes in. GAYA is printed on the bins. So today I asked Dustin who manages our recycling site the difference between Gaya and CARE.
He said Gaya takes donations all over and beyond. We would prefer to keep the donations among our local community he said.
I sent a message to CARE website . it would be good for us and them to have a donation site here in Manzanita Meanwhile remember that there is a fabulous HABITAT FOR HUMANITAS outlet on 101 Tillamook just before Fred Meyers.

I’ve always thought of myself as “too cool” to ever feel kinship with Howard Beale in the iconic 1976 movie, “Network”, but I’m there today. This last presidential election truly has me “mad as hell’.
For the second time in eight years I’ve seen a well-qualified, intelligent woman lose a presidential election to a loud-mouthed shill for the upper class who talks “populism” but is actually stealing my children’s and grandchildren’s freedom.
I’m not mad at him, you really can’t be mad at a snake for being a snake.
It’s my beloved Democratic party and what it’s become that has me boiling. Our strategy of “When they go low, we go high” clearly doesn’t work.
I grew up with the idea that the Democratic Party, the party of FDR and Harry Truman*, stood for the common man and the working class. I do not believe either party holds that belief in the hearts any longer.
In a 1956 speech, Dwight Eisenhower, the first president I remember, said “ if a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.
It started gradually about 1970, but that’s what our parties have become, “a conspiracy to seize power”. We spend advertising billions quibbling and our real problems are ignored.
Presidents of both parties have come and gone since then. The “real” freedom of affordable housing and education has withered continuously.
Somehow, we have to return to “Truman” Democrats and “Eisenhower” Republicans who truly are dedicated to a “cause that is right and that is moral”.
I don’t think we can do it living in our screens and social media. We need to start talking to real people here in our real community.
National media is in it strictly for the bucks and if our planet perishes, I guess that’s what they call the cost of doing business.
As always, discussion welcome at codger817@gmail.com

• I found it amazing how topical Harry Truman’s 1948 acceptance speech is still today. Here’s a link to the speech,

Dear Generous Community Members,

I told you in the last communication I would let you know more about Meals for Seniors, Inc. in Rockaway Beach. I started to underline what I thought was important in their letter, but found I was underlining everything. So, I will just send their entire letter. Again, this is from Meals for Seniors, Inc., PO Box 852, Rockaway Beach, Oregon, 97136. For more information, please call 503-317-8967.

“As you know, our senior citizens are the riches of our communities and all of us at Meals for Seniors, Inc. continue to work hard to provide nutritious meals for our senior citizens we serve. If you are looking for opportunities to help others during this holiday season we would appreciate your consideration of a donation.

We are on track to provide about 14,000 meals this year which would be a record for us. We have recently conducted a Customer Survey of those who receive meals from us. Those results show 27% of our respondents are over 80 years of age while another 10% are over 90! Of our respondents, 47% have been receiving for five meals or more and another 26% for 8 meals or more. Also, 24% have been receiving meals for less than one year, yet three of our seniors have been coming for 17 years or more. Our diners hail from the Portland area to Tillamook and Nehalem and communities in-between. We serve and deliver meals 52 weeks of the year; not missing a meal date since we began in 2003. For that we are grateful.

We also have a Family Fund you might consider. This is a separate project with its own funds yet is housed under our non-profit status. It is managed by the Meals for Seniors, Inc. Board of Directors. This fund assists families in need who might otherwise “fall through the cracks” during as well as at the holidays. In December we work with Tillamook County CARES which identifies families in need. Last year we were able to assist 15 families with a total of 61 children: we also help with utility bills. This year we have 12 families.

We are also working with the Neah-Kah-Nie School District resources counselors who identify students in need, along with their families. The district has schools in Nehalem, Rockaway, and Garibaldi. We are adopting another 14-18 families this year through the school district, about a total of about 44 families. We speak with the head of the household to determine the number of children and through Black Friday shopping we purchase clothing, toys, a complete holiday dinner along with a Fred Meyer gift card. Everything is wrapped and delivered by our volunteers a few days before Christmas.

We are learning there may be a need for lunches for students during the summer. Counselors note they see students coming back to school in the Fall, having lost weight. In one case they could tell this, s the student wore the same pair of pants during the school year, but now in the Fall they were baggy-they were the only pants he had. There are similar reports from counselors.

If you consider a donation to the Family Fund, please note so in the byline of a check or notation on PayPal as these fund and projects are separate from our meal service. We do not receive on-going local, state, national or federal funding. We are federally designated non-profit with a 501 (c)(3) status and your donation is deductible to the extent allowed by the law. We appreciate your consideration.

Our Board members, our volunteers and our seniors thank you for your past support and wish your and your loved ones a safe, healthy and happy holiday season”

If you divide the number of meals they serve a year, 14,000 meals by 52 weeks of the year, you come up with 269 meals per week!

Again, this was a letter I received from Meals for Seniors, Inc. Tax ID# 90-0097197. The letter is signed by Theresa Bruneau, President

The address for Meals for Seniors, Inc., PO Box 852, Rockaway Beach, Oregon 97136

Rockaway Beach Lions, PO Box 611, Rockaway Beach, Oregon 97136-Meals for families Thanksgiving and Christmas

North County Food Bank, PO Box 162, Wheeler, Oregon 97147, Meal’s weekly, Thanksgiving and Christmas Dinner also Clothing Bank-bring warm clothing

Nehalem Bay Community Services, PO Box 232, Nehalem, Oregon 97131 CHILD Program, Nehalem Senior Lunches, Nehalem Bay Food Pantry

If you want to look for more information about the above programs, please go to their website.

Again, many thanks! Your Holiday will be better if you are sharing it with others!

United Paws’ Kittens of the Week
Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your eyes, and read here the tale of two wonder-kitties, Cassius and Flavia! Flavia is the wild child, super silly and always ready to play. As the big sister and the biggest of her siblings, Flavia takes charge as the first one out the door for playtime and the last one to call it a day. Although she is a little ball of energy, don’t let her wild side fool you; she is a total sweetheart. Flavia buzzes with adoration when she is around people and is super cuddly and affectionate.

Cassius is so handsome he belongs on the cover of Cat Vogue! He has a beautiful spotted tabby pattern on a silvery coat and bright green eyes. He is a brave little adventurer, who loves exploring and playing. When Cassius is ready to rest, he will find the highest spot to perch and keep watch like a true protector. While he may be a bit cautious when meeting new people, once you earn his trust, he’ll reward you with endless purrs and cozy lap cuddles.

Cassius and Flavia are about 12 weeks old and have been in a loving foster home. They are good with other cats and probably gentle dogs. They are are now ready for their forever home. Could that be you?

You can learn more about these two kittens as well as other cats and kittens available for adoption at unitedpaws.wordress.com, where you can also complete an adoption application and get pre-approved. Once pre-approved, you can schedule a “Meet & Greet.” You can also email unitedpawsapps@gmail.com or call United Paws at 503-842-5663 for more info.

You can view videos of these cuties the United Paws website or at the following links.

Thank you, Mr Dieken for warning people of my leanings, but you are not quite accurate. It gives me a chance to point out a few things. What does it matter how I lean? I definitely do not lean towards belonging to a political party, which I will never do again, simply because it keeps people from utilizing all of their brain. An example of this is the following. Voting is the cornerstone of Democracy. Information, due to a lawsuit, came out before the election that Oregon has the dirtiest voter rolls in the nation. For putting out this information I was called a “threat to Democracy”.
Can you explain this? Are there any Democrats in this area of Oregon who want to follow up on this, and assure those of us who care about democracy will get accurate voter rolls in Oregon? I doubt it!

People who belong to a political party lock their brains into a box and cannot think outside the box. I feel our country is on the brink of imploding
because of corruption. Corruption happens to all governments over time. My beautiful country, with the best constitution of all, is extraordinarily corrupt, and the state of Oregon is also, simply because it has been under one party control for a long time. It doesn’t matter what party it is. Majority party rule over time leads to corruption

I have been a Democrat most of my life and most all of my kids and grandkids are Democrats. I have been registered lately as a Republican, a Democrat, and an Independent so I can vote in the primary election for persons running on both sides of the aisle that I would like to see In our state legislature.

I would like to see our election process change, so that in the primary a person could vote for all who are running in their area. This would include all independents, all democrats and all republicans listed on one ballot. Then I wouldn’t have to change my party identity. I almost voted for rank choice voting but didn’t. I think there is a better way. In closing I would like to say I lean toward common sense, and I don’t see much of that in the current Democratic Party.

Hello to our Very Generous Community,

Thanks to all of you who have given cash, checks, and donations to our many local organizations who keep so many fed and clothed. Below you will find the names and addresses of these organizations. You can continue giving through this holiday season, or on a monthly, quarterly, or annual basis. Yes, people need help year around in our community, not just the Holiday Season. I am seeing other individuals and businesses asking for clothing and food for locals. This is good! Please help them as much as you can.

Remember the Nehalem Elementary School Food Drive. This Food Drive is an especially important food security tool for our kids during their 2-week winter break at the end of the year. Already the Family Resource Center at the Nehalem Elementary School is collecting for the Weekend Backpack Food Program. Each food bag contains 2 lunches, 2 breakfast items, 2 servings of fruit, 4 snacks, and Top Ramen. Other items they collect are new and gently used jackets, shoes, socks, and clothes. Consider giving Hygiene products to the whole family. They also provide extra swim gear for children so they can participate in the swim program. These provisions for children are provided all school year. This is keeping people remarkably busy. One of these people is Heaven Hartford. To help this program you can stop by the office or mail a check to Nehalem Elementary, PO Box 190, Nehalem, Oregon, 97131.To contact Heaven at the Family Resource Center, call 503-355-3639 or text at heavenh@nknsd.org.

To help this Food Drive for the Holidays please think about what you would want your kids to have to eat. Consider cereal, bread, pasta, rice, healthy snacks, flour, sugar, canned goods, and such. If you have fresh or frozen items to donate, please call Nehalem Elementary School to arrange drop off or pick up. 503-355-3650 or 888-218-2455.

If any of you got a letter from Meals for Seniors, Inc. This year you know they have really expanded their already busy work in the community. Will need to get back to this in another email. In the business of helping people for over 20 years, you can help them with their Meal program by sending what you can to Meals for Seniors, PO Box 852, Rockaway Beach, Oregon 97136. Phone 503-317-8967.

Rockaway Beach Lions will be giving out baskets of food and presents for Christmas. Contact them at Rockaway Beach Lions, PO Box 611, Rockaway Beach, Oregon 97136.

The North County Food Bank is in Wheeler, open on Tuesday. They need food, money, warm clothing, and volunteers, especially this time of year. If you have questions, call them at 503-368-7724. Their mailing address is NCFB, PO Box 162, Wheeler, Oregon 97141.

Nehalem Bay Community Services is the umbrella for three organizations which were previously run by Nehalem Bay United Methodist Church. The CHILD Program provides new clothes to children at the beginning of the school year and at Christmas, along with Christmas presents. Nehalem Senior Lunches, served at the church on Tuesday and Thursday. The Nehalem Bay Food Panty rounds out these services with food and clothing for people and pet food for your dogs and cats. For questions about these programs, you can call the church office 503-368-5612 and leave a message. The mailing address for this organization is NBCS, PO Box 232, Nehalem, Oregon 97131.

Thank you-do your best-whatever that might be to help others!

The interim between a US presidential election and the swearing in of a new Administration has for most of our history been a non-eventful period where the outgoing Administration winds down operations and the incoming Administration ramps up new personnel before the inauguration. Something about losing the popular and electoral vote has led Biden’s people to disregard the threat of WWIII and give the green light for attacks with US missiles deep into Russian territory. That means that American military officers are shooting American missiles into Russia – something unimaginable even in the depths of the cold war. The American people did not vote for an expansion of war, either in eastern Europe or the Middle East. A recent CBE News/YouGov poll has shown that a majority of Americans favor an end to all US military aid to Ukraine. Upending the card table just because you lose the game not only shows blatant disregard for the “democracy” his party constantly preached on the campaign trail, but by pouring gasoline on these two very dangerous conflicts as he heads for the door President Biden puts each and every one of us in grave danger.
