Let’s start the new year with a commitment to fixing our things rather than throwing them away.
At the repair cafe, we repair clothing, small electrical items like lamps and toasters,
At the repair cafe, we pair you with an expert fixer who can take a look at your item, help you diagnose the problem, and most likely fix it! You can learn some repair skills as you watch. It’s very rewarding to give your item a new life, keep it out of the landfill, and learn something new.
Join us this Saturday at the workshop next to Heart of Cartm’s store from 3-5. Sign up at the website, so we will be expecting you.

THE WORST VOTER ROLES IN THE COUNTRY. — and I live here and I don’t like that – because I believe in Democracy and that aint it!
The current president is asking for some states to turnover their voter roles. The current president has the right to do this. Tobias Reid, Sec. of State says – I will not turn Oregonians personal sensitive information over to the government. BUT WAIT! Just exactly what is the personal sensitive data that you put on the form to register to vote?
There is a legal definition for personal sensitive information and here it is:
In Oregon, under the Oregon Consumer Privacy Act (OCPA), “sensitive data” broadly includes personal data revealing racial/ethnic origin, national origin, religious beliefs, mental/physical health, sexual orientation, transgender/non-binary status, victim status, citizenship/immigration status, genetic/biometric info, and a child’s data (under 13), plus precise location data, requiring explicit consent for processing. This definition offers enhanced protections beyond many other state laws, covering more vulnerable groups.
Is this information required on the form you filled out to register to vote? NOPE – so umm Just what is Secretary Reid talking about? Here is the info required on the voter form: ARE YOU A CITIZEN? ARE YOU 16 YEARS OF AGE? NAME – ADDRESS – DATE OF BIRTH –
COUNTY – PHONE – E-MAIL
MAILING ADRESS – DRIVERS LICENSE – POLITICAL PARTY – Thats all folks. That is all! No sensitive personal information requested to register to vote!
Oregon’s Secretary of State will only send REDACTED voter rolls for the request!. What could be redacted? I would like to see my voter role information – what could be on there that needs to be redacted? I see in my minds eye, a television personality on the nightly news – holding up a large handful of papers that are totally blacked out – like Epsteins List papers, and saying “and these are Oregon’s voter roles……..

Happy New Year!!!!

AGAINST THE CURRENT: FATHER TOM ODDO AND THE NEW AMERICAN CATHOLIC covers the In the wake of Stonewall and the Second Vatican Council. Father Oddo paved the way for those seeking a space where faith and identity could coexist. He co-founded DignityUSA at just 29 years old, positioning himself as a key figure in the fight for civil rights. By 38, he became President of the University of Portland, a rising academic star poised to transform higher education.
A tragic car accident cut his life short at 45, but his story and his legacy continue to impact the course of the Church today.
In Against the Current, Tyler Bieber presents a compelling biography based on intimate interviews, personal archives, and never-before-seen documents. The book explores encounters with celebrities, politicians, and Pope John Paul II while diving into themes of hope, resilience, and loss. It reveals a forgotten chapter of American history, a story of courage within the confines of tradition, and a meditation on redemption, identity, and the future of Catholicism.
During this time, Classic Street will remain open from Necarney to Jackson Way for residents of the Classic Street Cottages only. There will be no through traffic permitted.

This month’s story is Knight Owl by Christopher Denise. Owl has always dreamed of being a knight. Children will hear how Owl’s wish comes true and the problem he faces once he is keeping watch over the castle. Beautiful illustrations and Owl’s adventure will be sure to captivate children and adults alike. The story will be accompanied by trumpet player, Scott Wagner. Afterwards preschoolers will learn more about the trumpet and take part in making their own music with provided instruments.
The free readings for children ages 2 to 5 are planned monthly in partnership between North Oregon Coast Symphony, North Tillamook Library in Manzanita, and Seaside Library. For more information visit North Oregon Coast Symphony’s website at www.nocsymphony.org.

On the southeast corner of Division St. and Manzanita Ave in Manzanita (across from the new city hall on the Dirty Bird’s Nest Fest Wally’s Worms lot).
It is IMPERATIVE for all Americans – regardless of Party – to vet their sources before passing along dubious (even outright lies) to others. Additionally, allowing ANY administration (let alone this inept, corrupt, obscene one) to collect SENSITIVE VOTER INFORMATION on a massive scale POSES RISKS to VOTERS and ELECTION OFFICIALS.
For me it’s anything by the Beatles!
Also wanted to share a couple of Sedona Fire Band original songs.
