Nova Planet Series: Saturn

Submitted By: kileyk@ncrdnehalem.org – Click to email about this post
Please join us on Wednesday February 16 at 7:00 pm to Enjoy “Nova Planet Series: Saturn” in the NCRD Performing Arts Center.
This event is free to the public and everyone is welcome.
Over the past 40 years, a handful of space probes has given us glimpses of Saturn. But NASA’s Cassini, which explored the gas giant’s realm for 13 years, delivered the most breathtaking new insights. NOVA takes you inside Cassini’s epic journey as it makes stunning discoveries: Saturn’s rings are younger than the dinosaurs and may be remnants of an ice moon. And geysers erupting ice and gas on the moon Enceladus show that it could have all the ingredients for life. But to protect it, the Cassini mission team makes a bittersweet decision.

SMALL TRAVEL TRAILER/RV FOR SHORT RENTAL

Submitted By: tevisdiii@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
I will be replacing my sister''''s manufactured home with a newer, smaller one in May, so we are hoping to find someone who has a vacation trailer/small rv, that is not being used and could make someone some income for a couple months. The site is right off hwy 26, flat, easy access, no wear and tear, next to a barn with power and water. She would need it for May and June. Very responsible lady! Thanks for considering!

High Speed Internet for Tillamook County

Submitted By: julian@tele.com – Click to email about this post
Tillamook County although productive and fertile was hard
to reach before the New Deal really opened the area up bringing in
improved communications, roads, electricity and telephones.

The Rural Electrification Administration (REA) under
the New Deal brought electricity and telephones to rural parts
of the US, enabling commerce, education and manufacturing
outside the cities.

With telephone service news and commerce could now
travel at the speed of light.

The first half of the Twentieth Century brought voice
telephones to anyone that wanted them, no matter their income
or location. The latter half of the Twentieth Century brought
us digital communications (modems) on top of the voice lines.
With that came on line ordering, on line banking, electronic mail
and file transfers, such as sending in accounting data to
head office.

Data communications have like the voice telephone
before it have gone from something that interested and helped
commerce and some hobbyists to a daily essential.

Today, with an internet connection you can handle
accounts, send e-mail, video-conference, watch movies, send
documents around the world in seconds, look at remote cameras at
the front door or your holiday home. If you make phone calls via
the internet using Voice over IP. Your work phone extension can
now also be a phone in your house this makes working from home a
breeze.

Adding all these features to the Internet requires
faster internet speeds. When a house has someone watching
streamed movies, someone killing Zombies in an online game and
someone having a video chat a regular DSL or cable
connection gets overwhelmed. These days with all these services
available your internet connection tends to choke. Web pages
start taking a long time to load, streamed movies pause and stutter,
online games become hard to play.

What we need is wider pipes. Just as the solution to
traffic clogging a road is more lanes, the solution is a fatter
pipe to the home or business.

The way to do this is go away from using copper to send
data (DSL via the phone line and TV Cable) and move to glass
(fiber optic cable).

There are limits to the amount of data you can carry on
copper. How much better is fiber? Currently a copper internet
connection to your home is like a goat path and a fiber connection
to your home is like a six lane straight highway.

Tillamook county has fiber everywhere, buried along our
roads along the railway line and attached to power poles, as I like to say
“Tillamook county has more fiber than a vegan potluck”.

There is an Inter Government Agency called Tillamook Lightwave. Currently they provide high speed wide bandwidth Internet Access to County offices, schools, libraries and big companies like the Tillamook Creamery. We need that same good service in all our homes and businesses.

Here in Oregon, the cities of Sandy and Hillsboro amongst
others have affordable fiber to the home, so it can be done.

A few observations about the Freedom Convoy truckers:
When is a minority of a minority enfranchised to demand the resignation of a sitting head of state in return for ending a siege? This feels somewhat like Ammon Bundy and the Three Percenters in the U.S.
Didn''t the Timber Unity truckers demand Kate Brown''s resignation a couple of years ago in Salem?
Ottawa person-on-the-street interviewees had a hard time expanding on the rights/freedoms that had been so egregiously abridged. Perhaps that''s because the comfortable seldom have cause to think about them?
The Canadian military (unlike its U.S. counterpart) is mustering out active-duty service members who participated in this uprising. Also unlike the U.S., law enforcement was savvy enough not to turn protestors into examples of police abuse.
Not surprisingly, the link attached to this post takes you to a website that also features the fringy video [Nuremberg 2, Covid-19 as a crime against humanity] that D. Gainer posted on BBQ a few days ago. I''m also not surprised that the truckers'' cause has been embraced by Fox News and a dozen of the most unctuous and craven U.S. Senators.
Careful what you wish for.

From the Heart of Cartm to the Hearts of Volunteers

Submitted By: jessi@heartofcartm.org – Click to email about this post
Over the last few weeks, we have seen the most generous of human beings walk through the doors of our heart space in Wheeler to vacuum up muddy water, repair holes, paint walls, organize tools, arrange discarded furniture into cozy vignettes, plant flowers, greet customers, hang photos and light candles.
I am humbled by the generosity of our community volunteers who show me over and over what it means to reimagine waste and love unconditionally. Our volunteers put love into the discards, the junk, the tangled messes, the dirty and the broken and turn those items into treasure.
Heart of Cartm is full to the brim, overflowing with the compassion and creativity of this community and we want to share this with as many of you as absolutely possible. On Monday from Noon – 1pm, Heart of Cartm is serving heart-y soup for the soul from Heidi at The Roost in Wheeler. The store is open Noon-6pm. Come on in to craft a little valentine (like those in the photo!), find a little treasure or sign up to join our team of volunteer hearts.

From my heart to yours,
Jessi Just
Heart of Cartm
