SEE IT THIS WEEKEND!

Riverbend Players launched the 2025 season with our first-ever Agatha Christie murder mystery—playing to huge crowds!

With six remaining shows, THE MOUSETRAP runs through March 16th at the NCRD Performing Arts Center in Nehalem.

THE MOUSETRAP by Agatha Christie
Directed by Randy Schultz:

A classic murder mystery occurs in Monkswell Manor, a guesthouse where a snowstorm traps a group of strangers.

As news arrives of a murder nearby, the guests realize that the killer might be among them.

Detective Sergeant Trotter arrives to investigate, but as tensions rise and secrets are uncovered, another murder occurs.

The play is famous for its surprise twist ending, and audiences are traditionally asked to keep the plot’s resolution a secret.

The Mousetrap holds the world record as the longest-running play, debuting in 1952 and remaining continuously on stage.

Get your 2025 SEASON PASS now and save 20% on tickets. It’s only available until March 16th.

Tickets and the 2025 SEASON PASS are available now at www.RiverbendPlayers.org

Democrats Destroyed Ukraine

Andy Norris lost me in the first sentence of his recent pro-Russia screed: “Russia lost 50-million soldiers fighting Nazis in WW2.”

The total Soviet population from the somewhat-reliable 1939 census was 170,500,000, so clearly, 50,000,000 military war losses is way off.

Generally agreed upon Soviet deaths are estimated to have been 13,000,000 military and 14,000,000 civilian. The largest ethnic groups were Russians and Ukrainians.

Of course these two numbers don’t include Soviet losses incurred from 1939 to 1941 when Russia aligned with the Nazis to take over Poland and the Baltic countries.

Opinions are malleable, facts less so.

Don’t worry about missing earlier sessions.

This week’s sermon is “Legitimate Doubts” and is 34 minutes long and will explore our doubts about our government, our democracy, and our union. We can talk about the sermon afterwards, or not.

I am creating a no dig landscaping area at my house. I need oodles of big card board pieces to put on the ground. Big appliance boxes are great, for example.

I am in Nehalem. I will pickup. Or, if you have a lot, which would require more than one load in my compact Crossover SUV, perhaps, if your vehicle can haul more, I could pay you to drop your cardboard off at my house in Bayside Gardens/Nehalem

Thank you, Sheila Moran

Democrats destroyed Ukraine: please stop pretending this is Trump’s war

Posted on by North Coast BBQ

Submitted By: runnawaytrain1@gmx.com – Click to email about this post
Russia lost 50-million soldiers fighting Nazis in WW2.
Without Russia’s help, we in America would be speaking German.
Thank you Russia!!!!!!!!!!
At the end of the war, NATO/US agreed NOT TO EXPAND NATO OR ENCROACH UPON THE RUSSIAN BORDER.
Then the US/NATO war pigs decided to violate the peace agreement, again and again, for years (this war has been planned for a LONG TIME) and start provoking Russia, in a most vile, genocidal manner I will add.
First, Barak Obama overthrew the democratically-elected gov’t of Ukraine (With USAID money btw) and installed Nazi-aligned (i.e., Azimov Batallian, ACTUAL UKRAINIAN NAZIS, with swastikas and the whole 9-yards) thugs who would be willing to provoke Russia into a NATO/US-led war.
Then we (Democrats) put three bio-weapons labs on the Ukrainian border.
Then we (Democrats) put missiles into Poland that can be retrofitted with nuclear war heads in two hours, then be able to nuke Moscow in 7-minutes. (would we tolerate Russian nukes in Tijuana or Quebec?)
And we have been/are constantly pushing other countries toward NATO membership, continually violating the terms of the end of WW2 peace agreement with Russia.
What does ‘support Ukraine’ mean to Democrats? Send them more weapons? They’ve lost 600,000 people. That number DOES NOT include injuries, and the country is destroyed. How does sending weapons to Ukraine support them? They haven’t a chance of ‘winning’ in a war with Russia. (But a weak/destroyed Ukraine won’t be able to hold on the billions of minerals under their soil that NATO/US plans to steal.)
All Russia wanted is for NATO to honor the WW2 agreement and stay the f*ck out of Ukraine, which included NOT PUTTING NUKES IN POLAND!!!!!!
If NATO/US (Democrats) had honored the PEACE AGREEMENT after WW2, THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN NO RUSSIAN INVASION OF UKRAINE – END OF STORY.
The words ‘Democrat’ and ‘peace’ are NOT synonimous.
It’s so frustrating watching Dems freak out on Trump after witnessing their silence during the worst war-pig administration of my lifetime, the Biden Admin. Worse than the war criminals Dubya and Dick. And war was only one of the ways that last corrupt administration brought more hell to our world and weakened our country.
So here is some history about the US-Democrat-led destruction of Ukraine (which included FROM THE BEGINNING the planned theft of billions of dollars of their minerals) from award-winning director of JFK and Platoon, Oliver Stone:
rumble.com/vwsh2k-ukraine-on-fire-2016-oliver-stone-director-igor-lopatonok-mirror.html
and here are some Democrat war-pigs still being war-pigs, despite all the death and destruction they have already caused worldwide:
rumble.com/v6q7v1g-trump-exposes-pro-war-democrats-w-matt-taibbi.html?e9s=src_v1_ucp
What does it mean to say “I support Ukraine”? For Democrats, it means sending more weapons to kill more people. Then steal their mineral wealth.
And quite frankly, I find the typical Democrat position on Ukraine ignorant and extremely repugnant, to the tune of 600,000 dead Ukrainians…and counting…

Trump/Musk Medicaid Cuts & Oregon’s Filial Responsiblility Law

Posted on by North Coast BBQ

Submitted By: genedieken@yahoo.com – Click to email about this post
The recently passed House GOP budget road map seeks to make massive cuts to Medicaid. This means that elders and others who now rely primarily on Medicaid to cover nursing home or memory care costs will lose that assistance in whole or in part. Oregon has filial care laws (ORS 109.010, et al) that could require adult children to cover the Medicaid loses of their parents.
I’m not an expert in this area but if it’s possible you could be affected, it might be wise to start investigating/planning.

Celebration of Life – Beverly Miles Stephens – March 22

Posted on by North Coast BBQ

Submitted By: laura@nehalemtel.net – Click to email about this post
Beverly Joanne (Miles) Stephens
September 15, 1936 – February 28, 2025

Bev passed away in Seaside, Oregon on February 28, 2025 at the age of 88. She was preceded in death by her husband Robert Stephens and her beloved son “Bobby” Stephens. She is survived by her daughter Karen; her daughter-in-law Marcy; her grandchildren Derek Stephens and wife Amanda, and Devon Stephens; her great grandchildren Addison and Ella Stephens; and many nieces and nephews who loved her dearly.

What really set Beverly apart is that she was a true Tillamook County pioneer. She was born in Manzanita in the family home right off of Laneda Avenue. While she was being delivered her next-door neighbor Shirley (Adamscheck) Potter sat on the front steps waiting for Bev to make her appearance. That day a friendship was born that would last a lifetime. The two friends; Phyllis Nadine (Stephens) Marti and Phyllis Ann (Kane) Stephens grew up together and were friends and sisters all their lives. Bev spent almost all of her life in and around the Nehalem Valley. She was proud to be a local and from one of the intergenerational families that have called Nehalem Valley home for decades.

Graveside services will be held at Nehalem American Legion Cemetery at 10755 Necarney City Road Nehalem, Oregon March 22nd at 2:00pm followed immediately by a gathering to celebrate her with cakes and coffee at the White Clover Grange at 36585 Oregon Highway 53. Please join family and friends of Beverly and share the celebration of a woman who loved her family, friends, community, and cake.
