Rally to Protest Industrial Forestry Practices: Seaside and Portland – Thursday, October 6, 2022 at 3:30 P.M.
Please join North Coast Communities for Watershed Protection Thursday, October 6, 2022 for a peaceful rally against Wall St. corporation-backed, destructive timber industry practices!
WHERE and WHEN:
On the coast – 3:30 p.m. at the Big Orange Chair (Hwy 101 and Broadway) at the Seaside Visitor’s Bureau
In Portland – 3:30 P.M. at South Hawthorne Waterfront Park for the march to S.W. Park & Montgomery for a rally at 4:30 P.M.
WHAT TO BRING: Water, sunscreen, good walking shoes, optional signs and banners)
WHY: TIAA and other Wall St. corporations are helping to bankroll the climate crisis through their funding of deforestation and fossil fuels. We are joining forces with Sun Rise Movement PDX, and other environment organizations in the Forest Climate Alliance to take a stand against the irresponsible industrial forestry practices (clearcutting followed by pesticide spraying) that are decimating Oregon’s forested watersheds. These practices are designed with the aim of maximum profit for Wall St. corporations (like TIAA and others) and providing payouts to corporate shareholders—who are invested in Oregon timber companies, like GreenWood Resources. The price of these practices is the health of our communities, and a liveable planet for future generations.
We hope to see you there!
With Love,
NCCWP

Council Candidate Mark Kuestner’s Public Record
Submitted By: rkinor@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
In August of 2020 while running for City Council, current Manzanita Council candidate Mark Kuestner advised me on a Facebook post to “Please withdraw from the Council race. Manzanita needs adults to govern.”
Mr. Kuestner’s plea stemmed from my concerns along with other citizens over the City Council’s conclusion that the City Manager and then Assistant City Manager were spending 50% of their time in supervisory and management activities of our Water utility and were thus entitled to take 50% of their respective salaries from the Water Operating Fund. Having been the Manzanita City Manager for 8 years, I was quite familiar with what the City Manager’s time commitments were in overseeing this service including the supervising of the Public Works Director and his staff. I suggested that a City Manager under the present organizational circumstances would be spending approximately 10 -12% of their time in this activity. This was and remains an important issue as every dollar that is taken from our Water Funds to pay City Hall staff salaries is one less dollar available to put into needed water construction projects.
At the May 2021 Budget Committee Hearing, interim City Manager John Kunkel when asked how much time in personnel management of water utility staff he and the Assistant City Manager perform, he responded that it was “a very small percentage.”When then asked how much time he estimated that he spent overall supervising water utility operations during the 8 months that he was employed by the City he stated “somewhere between 10 -15% of my time would be accurate”. Mr. Kuestner who claims that he has attended these Budget Committee meetings did not ask any questions to better understand the responsibilities of the City Manager regarding these activities. The fact that these conclusions so closely mirrored my observations from a year earlier apparently no longer held any interest for him.
While the above post can still be accessed, many of Mr. Kuestner’s past social media posts reacting to citizens who questioned how the Council during these past years was conducting our business seem to have disappeared. His campaign literature highlights his commitment to “respond with facts not feelings.” It would seem that in this instance, that commitment rings hollow.
I certainly would not advise Mr. Kuestner to withdraw from this race just because he has opinions that differ with mine. He does however have a record of public comments and connection to the support of the policies of this past Mayor and Council despite the facts that requires some explanations on his part.

Turn Off the Lights
Submitted By: lisaleestewart@comcast.net – Click to email about this post
Offensive Lighting:
Like many of you, we chose to retire here because of the healthy outdoors, to get away from crowds and traffic and bright lights, noise and pollution. We could walk everywhere, felt safe. We could sleep with our windows open, enjoying the fresh air and ocean noises. We could go to bed early and rise with the sunlight. We could sit in the dark out on our deck and enjoy the stars in the dark sky. It was peaceful and quiet. Our health improved as we settled into retirement and let go of the stress of working for the past 50 years. I used to think most people living in Manzanita felt the same about the peace and quiet and the dark night sky.
Unfortunately, the wonderful relaxing life style we believed in has been ruined by the uncaring attitude of people in power who fail to act and the selfishness of second home owners who care nothing about how they impact others who live here full time. The city refuses to step up because they don’t care. Oh, they enacted an ordinance to protect people from intrusive lighting from an STR but they didn’t bother to extend that protection to residents being assaulted by the exact same offensive and intrusive lighting from a second home owner. Why? It makes absolutely no sense and is discriminating against full time residents by denying us equal protection under the law. I was told by a city council member that the police were too busy to enforce anything so the city wouldn’t act to protect us. Wow. Apparently STRs are important to the city, but an individual homeowner’s right to the peaceful enjoyment of their own property is of no value to Manzanita and undeserving of any common decency or protection from harassment.
I want someone to explain to me the mentality of buying a second home in a very quiet, peaceful neighborhood and ignoring all that the neighborhood is and deciding it’s appropriate to turn the dark night off and put up and turn on all possible offensive lighting and keeping it all on 24 hours for days/weeks on end – even though you, the homeowner turning on those lights is not even present but at one of your other home(s). Why did you come here in the first place – to impose your lifestyle of offensive unnecessary lighting on the rest of us? Do you even notice what you are doing to others? Do you even care? Do you not notice that your lights are the only ones on all up and down the street all night? Of course you don’t because you aren’t even here to step outside and notice the impact of your selfish behavior on the night sky around you. Are you so unaware that it’s your lights that light up your neighbor’s property? Why do you need to do that? Open your eyes and think about how you would feel if this was being done to you and you were sick and wanting to sleep. Please. As you age you may notice that good sleep is often more difficult to obtain. Does it feel good to make sleep difficult for those around you?
How about the neighbor who spitefully directs their outdoor motion detector lights directly into our bedroom and living room windows, and positioned their motion sensitive lights to go off and on when we/dogs are walking in our own yard. I didn’t ask for them to light up my yard. Yet they do. Their motion detector lights light up our driveway (not theirs, ours) and the street in front of our home, not theirs, and all the way across the street to the house across from us. Why? The lights are triggered constantly by trees moving, wildlife, people walking out on the street or cars driving by. Why is it okay to ruin my right to sleep at night? Especially when they aren’t even here!! Please note: when they are here they turn off all the excessive outside party lighting (except the motion lights) so they can sleep!!! Go figure. Obviously they are entitled to sleep in the dark but we are not. Just to be clear: you are not providing me or anyone with “ambience” by means of your excessive lighting and if you aren’t here to enjoy your “ambience” then just turn it off and stop wasting electricity! It amazes and astounds me that many people visiting Manzanita do not actually respect others, do not care about dark skies, obviously do not value the environment, and are the biggest hypocrites about energy conservation and believe that electricity is power to be wasted. Apparently everyone (other than an STR) has the right to do whatever they want with their outdoor lighting 24 hours a day including pointing it directly into the privacy of our own homes, and to hell with the rest of us. What a pleasant world we live in now.

Walton’s Traditional Irish Whistle – made in Dublin, Ireland. It is tuned to the key of “D” – this is the most popular key for traditional Irish music. It’s made of brushed brass and has a plastic fipple (mouthpiece). The plastic mouthpiece has become accepted and even preferred by most traditional players, due to the consistency of sound that they produce. The Mellow D has a slightly wider bore (the inside diameter of the whistle), giving it a tone that’s well suited for airs. Comes with storage tube and finger chart/music to get started.$10

The 10 minute trick that reverses 8 hours of sitting
Submitted By: revolutionginger@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
People made fun of me when I first started massage school.
I was the “old guy” with bad posture.
Truth is, it was bad. I sat slumped over and stood with my waistline bowed forward and shoulders back.
It still plagues me when I spend long periods on my computer or phone.
35+ years of skateboarding didn’t exactly help the situation. I sometimes used my board as a cane to support my bowed body without realizing it.
So when I have a massage client that comes to me complaining of shoulder and neck pain I love to share this trick I learned to help heal the posture problems that so many of us have.
As we sit long periods our stomach and pec muscles get tight, pulling the shoulders and neck forward out of alignment.
Every inch your head leans forward adds 10lbs of weight to your neck and spine.
After hours of staring down at your phone or lap top your shoulders, upper back and neck are sure to feel stressed and tight.
This can lead to headaches, chronic pain and can make working at a desk miserable.
If this sounds like something you are struggling with try this easy 10 minute stretch at night to help unwind your neck and spine.
It helped change my posture in a week and half.
This stretch works best using an inflatable yoga/exercise ball.
DO NOT ATTEMPT IF YOU ARE IN PAIN.
1) Lie on your back on your on a yoga ball using support if need from wall or bed or a partner to maintain balance.
2) Slowly roll back and forth, head to tail, as the ball supports your spine from head to tail. Slowly opening up the front body muscles.
3) When this is comfortable raise your arms overhead and let them fall back by your head to bridge over reaching towards the ground.
4) Stay in this easy supported stretch for 10 minutes if you can. You might want to start with just 5 minutes and then work your way up from there.
10 minutes on a yoga ball each night can reverse eight hours of hunching over your work station.
If you want to get a yoga ball they come in 3 sizes: 55, 65, & 75 cm. I would suggest if you are close to 5 ft. go with the smallest, 5.5 ft go with medium, and 6 ft go with the large.
If you do not have a yoga ball- you can slowly allow your head and neck to flex over the edge of your bed.
Starting with just your head over the edge, then inch worming each vertebra over the edge as comfort allows.
It might take a few times to be able to get your shoulder blades over the edge. Please give yourself ample support when attempting!
If this stretch is too painful to do or isn’t enough to release your neck – I recommend scheduling regular massages to release your neck, shoulder and back muscles and help re-align your posture.
Massage can also be very helpful for headaches brought on by muscle tension.
I have appointments available Friday – Saturday this week to help get you feeling good again.

as described by Jungian Analyst Jane Bacon: What is Authentic Movement?
Authentic Movement is a process of allowing inner-directed movement. It is practiced by people both with and without dance experience and at all levels of physical ability, in groups or individually. Some use it for therapeutic purposes and some as a resource for choreographic and other creative processes, others as a form of mystical practice.
The basic form is simple – a mover with eyes closed, turns attention to their experience without the input from the visual world and waits to notice and then ‘to be moved’ by internal impulses in that exist in the present moment. Then you explore these impulses—image, memory, thought, feeling or sensation—with curiosity and follow the subtle movements.
There is always a witness who sees you move. He or she waits with clear attention to you as mover and with non-judgemental awareness of the present moment. The witness also attends to their own experiences moment by moment as they are your witness. As well as noticing and attending to you moving, they also notice their own repetitions, images, habits, patterns, gestures and expressions that arise in the process of being present with the mover. This process can provide a rich resource of stories from and about the body.

DO YOU LOVE PLANTS BUT FEAR PRUNING? CLICK HERE!

People often tell me they never know when to prune so they don’t. CHAOS! Others just grab the clippers and do their worst. DIVORCE COURT!
Somewhere in-between is that glorious sweet spot where people who love plants approach pruning with neither fear not malice and instead use their tools to bring out their plants’ inherent beauty.
Wanna be one of those people?
