Musical Storytime: “Three Hens and a Peacock”

Bring your preschooler to hear a hilarious story at North Oregon Coast Symphony’s next free Musical Storytime. In March the featured story will be Three Hens and a Peacock by Lester Laminack. This program is a hands-on musical activity. The event will feature a live oboe accompaniment. Children will hear about a peaceful farm where animals don’t complain – until a peacock arrives. Be ready to laugh out loud as the tale unfolds. With vibrant illustrations this book is sure to be a favorite for children and adults. Afterwards preschoolers will learn more about the oboe and take part in making their own music with provided instruments.

This event will be offered at 10:30 Monday, March 9 at the North Tillamook Library in Manzanita.

The free readings for children ages 2 to 5 are planned monthly in partnership with the Astoria Library, North Tillamook Library in Manzanita, and the Seaside Library. Funding for some of the instruments used in this outreach program come from Clatsop County Cultural Coalition and Oregon Cultural Trust. We thank both organizations for their generosity.

North County Resistance

Posted on by North Coast BBQ

Submitted By: pattyrinehart@nehalemtel.net – Click to email about this post
Dear Friends,

PLEASE NOTE: The City of Manzanita is having their City Council Meeting this coming Wednesday, March 4th at 6 PM. This will be at the City Hall on Manzanita Avenue. Under New Business there is a Proclamation: Immigration and Customs Enforcement Activity in Manzanita. Should you wish to say anything or contribute to the cause by just being there North County Resistance encourages you to attend. We are looking for a group of people to support this Proclamation not only in the Meeting Chamber but with strength to fill the lobby and perhaps the parking lot. See you there!

Before the North County Resistance this past Saturday we woke up to the news the United States and Israel had declared war on Iran-President Trump and Prime Minister Netanyahu had declared war on Iran. The Iran Supreme Leader Ali Khamenie is dead. I am not sure how any of us could have or can trust these 3. It is my opinion the three of them have abused their powers way beyond any humane markers. They are all responsible for tragedies in our world.

I was asking people at the North County Resistance on Saturday about their opinions about what had just happened and how they felt about being at the Protest and below are their replys:

-I express my feelings every Saturday because the real democratic America is so important to me-and to the world.
-Anguish-Enough is enough!
-It is hard to feel like anything makes a difference. But we are. Any progress is good.
-My nieces are Persian. Beautiful people. Ancient people. Deep roots. So many good people on this planet!
-We get more approval from passersby every week.
-On my birthday, February 17th, Secretary Collins of the Veterans Administration passed a resolution to stop some of the VA Benefits to Veterans. After 20,000 Vets protested to Secretary Collins, he rescinded the order. So, it does help to protest.
-Liberty and Justice for All.
-Let us not start more wars from the President who says he has stopped 8 wars.
-America is in Trouble.
-Frustrated. How much worse can it get?
-Please remove the President.
-Trump has no right to start a war with Iran. He needs Congressional approval. He promised he wouldn’t start any new wars.
-This country was founded on the rule of law-not royal decree. Bring back the Constitution. Bring back Congress.
-It is a travesty what is happening in this country. It must stop. (Four people agreed with this.)
-Need to get back to “home of the free and land of the brave”. This is not who we are.
-I am not feeling like we are making a difference in Washington, D.C. In a community this is a way to stand together and feel impowered. I liken it to each person here is a seed of hope. If we don’t stand in solidarity the garden won’t grow.
-All people who are not here-come and join us-silence is death.
-I worry/fear there will not be another election.
-I am afraid the paint is not dry on my “no more war” signs. They will be here next week. It is hard to keep up with the signs.
-Seeing a group protesting encouraged me to join and be out there with them. It made me feel safe to see support for humanity in small coastal towns.
-I keep coming to protests because being with like-minded people raises my hope that we will ultimately get our democracy back.
-Congress do your job! Impeach Trump!
-The damage being done domestically won’t be repaired without a big effort and the passage of time. Not just this administration but also the party in power needs to be resisted everywhere.
-I am so glad to be here to help-love and believe in this.
Perhaps because I think of myself as a gardener, I love the person’s statement that we are all flower seeds in this protest. The more we have the more we will grow. People at North County Resistance Protests believe people are good and we should have liberty and justice for all. President Trump really has no clue about what is going on for most people in this country-the gas he used to go to Mara logo every weekend could probably fuel the tanks of Tillamook County for at least a week. I do not want to be over the top here, but are we having a “next” election? Join North County Resistance next week, Nehalem, noon to 2 PM. Do not forget about the Manzanita City Council Meeting, March 4th, 6 pm.

Thanks for reading, Patty

Visualization Meditation event for creating a beautiful Future this Wednesday in Nehalem!

Posted on by North Coast BBQ

Submitted By: seadreamnehalem@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
With all that is happening in our world now, rather than be swallowed up by despair, it is more imperative than ever that we step into our courage and use our energy toward a bright future for ourselves, our community, all of humanity, this beautiful planet, and all beings.

The antidote to the hopelessness and dread that can overwhelm us is love and courage. Now is the time for deciding to create hope and positive possibilities. Let’s not forget: this is a mystical universe, and life is a mysterious (and brief) adventure that none of us truly understands.
We are each much more powerful than any of us realizes. When we spend time cultivating peace and hope inside of ourselves, it is not just a feel-good experience. It is real energy being created, it makes our real-world actions possible, and it is powerful. Imagination is powerful, and it is the beginning of action. When we visualize, dream into, and deeply cultivate a belief in the possibility of a better, more beautiful future we begin the work of turning what matters most to us, into matter. We are the ones who make real the things we want to see happening.

Let’s practice creating beautiful future visions, together in a guided meditation followed by some creative journaling/painting (optional) / integration time!

when: WEDNESDAY MARCH 4 at 4pm!

Turning the Tide in Oregon’s Blue Ecosystems: Seaweeds and Green Crabs

Posted on by North Coast BBQ

Submitted By: carol@netartsbaywebs.org – Click to email about this post
Join us for the second talk of our three-part event series, “Producers of the Bay!”
Oregon’s coastal blue ecosystems are dynamic, productive, and increasingly shaped by climate change and invasive species. This webinar explores the ecological roles of seaweeds and invasive European green crabs, and how science-informed and ancestral stewardship and harvesting practices can contribute to ecosystem resilience. Drawing from marine ecology, the Indigenous 13 Moons seasonal framework, and Asian coastal food traditions, the session connects ecosystem literacy with culinary nourishment. Attendees will gain insight into Oregon’s nearshore systems while discovering how thoughtful harvesting and cooking can transform ecological challenges into opportunities for stewardship and sustainability—while also creating meaningful and nourishing meals.

HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF, BADLY..

TRUMPS DICTATORIAL DISASTER:
It was another date that would live in infamy. But whereas Franklin Roosevelt declared war in sombre tones to a joint session of Congress, Donald Trump did it his way.
The US president wore a white “USA” cap, dark jacket and white shirt open at the collar. He stood at a blue lectern bearing the US presidential seal and a black microphone, with the Stars and Stripes behind him, presumably at his Mar-a-Lago residence in Florida. He released a video on his own social media network, Truth Social, at 2.30am on Saturday – a time when most Americans are asleep but Trump is often found rage-tweeting into the night.
In the space of eight minutes, Trump proceeded to upend half a century of US foreign policy, renege on his campaign promise to avoid the risk of forever wars and leave the Fifa boss, Gianni Infantino, with some explaining to do about why he gave Trump a made-up peace prize.
“There is also a beautiful medal for you that you can wear everywhere you want to go,” the oleaginous Infantino told Trump last December. Trump was not wearing that medal on Saturday. Instead, he delivered a performance that would have had soccer fans chanting: “Are you George Bush in disguise?”
Bush dragged the US into a tragic war in Iraq in 2003 that costs hundreds of thousands of lives and trillions of dollars and was recently crowned by the Council on Foreign Relations thinktank as the worst foreign policy decision in history. The avaricious Trump seems determined to seize that title for himself with another act of Middle Eastern regime change.
At least Bush tried to make a case to justify his invasion – mendacious as it was – and tried to convince the UN of its merits. Trump did not even bother. He amassed a huge “armada” in the Middle East with little explanation to Congress or the public. He did not mention Iran until more than an hour into this week’s State of the Union address.
Finally, when the bombs were already falling, he tried to offer a rationale in his social media video. The Iranian regime, he said, are “a vicious group of very hard, terrible people” whose menacing activities “directly endanger” the US and its allies. Trump ran through the history of the Iran hostage crisis, the Marine barracks bombing, the attack on the USS Cole and Iran’s hand in killing and maiming US troops in Iraq.
“It’s been mass terror, and we’re not going to put up with it any longer,” he said. But none of that answered a simple question: why now?
Trump went on to reference Iranian proxy groups “that have soaked the earth with blood and guts” and cite Hamas’s 7 October attacks on Israel, saying: “Iran is the world’s No 1 state sponsor of terror and just recently killed tens of thousands of its own citizens on the street as they protested.”
Trump underlined the US policy that Iran can never have a nuclear weapon and glided past his own past claim that last June’s attack had “obliterated” its programme, contending that the US wanted to make a deal but Tehran refused. “They rejected every opportunity to renounce their nuclear ambitions, and we can’t take it anymore,” he said.
The president said the US had undertaken “a massive and ongoing operation to prevent this very wicked, radical dictatorship from threatening America and our core national security interests” – an ominous sign that Washington could be in for the long haul. The chair-for-life of the new Board of Peace promised to “raze their missile industry to the ground” and “annihilate their navy”.
Then came an unexpected admission: “The lives of courageous American heroes may be lost, and we may have casualties. That often happens in war, but we’re doing this not for now. We’re doing this for the future, and it is a noble mission.”
Here was Trump, the reality TV president, understanding how desperate it will look if American service members return home in body bags, their lives sacrificed for a cause that the public little understands and still less believes in.

From Space to Long Ago: Writers Read Celebration Considers ‘From A Distance’

Posted on by North Coast BBQ

Submitted By: nmccarthy1276@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Some say perspective changes everything. The 16 writers from throughout the Northwest, Canada and Texas selected to read their pieces on the theme, “From a Distance,” for the Cannon Beach Library’s Writers Read Celebration, twisted their perceptions to encompass time, space and technology.

They will read their poems, short stories and essays at the Celebration beginning at 7 p.m. Friday, March 6 in the library, 131 Hemlock St., Cannon Beach.

Admission is free. People can attend in person at the library or online; the link will be on the library’s website, cannonbeachlibrary.org.

From a conversation with the wind to backwards time travel in Galway, Ireland, the pieces offered a variety of views from a distance.

A boy looks at the planets while a Martian considers Earth. Friends try to plan a coastal trip via text messages. Life changes direction for a young man working in a mint field. A woman hopes to recapture her great-grandmother’s recipe for beans and pork.

This is the eighth year of the library’s Writers Read Celebration. Writers were asked to submit up to three entries – limited to 600 words per entry – on a chosen theme. This year’s theme was “From a Distance.”

The library received a record-breaking 122 entries. They were reviewed in a blind selection process by a panel of volunteers from the library’s NW Authors Series Committee.

Those selected to read were:
Aronne Barnes, Portland: Short Story, Charity Lamb
Rachel Blair, Portland: Essay, How to Write a Recipe
John Ciminello, Naselle, WA: Short Story, Digital Distances
Linda Gelbrich, Corvallis: Poem, Just Imagining,
Bill Graffius,Gearhart: Poem, Baby Left Alone

United Paws’ Cat of the Week: Meet Goodfella

Posted on by North Coast BBQ

Submitted By: Website@unitedpaws.org – Click to email about this post
Introducing Goodfella, United Paws’ Cat of the Week. You don’t get the name “Goodfella” unless you are, well, a good fella. This black beauty with eyes that shine either yellow or green, has earned his name and the hearts of his rescue team at United Paws. 

When Goodfella came into the headquarters, he was unrecognizable. He was skin and bones, infested with fleas, had almost no fur, and was covered with angry sores and scabs. His rescuer called him a “hot mess.” After many weeks of treatment, nutritious food and loving care, this beautiful soul began to shine once again. Now Goodfella is healthy, frisky, with soft fur coming back in, thick and black. 

Now that his health concerns are behind him, Goodfella is ready for life in an active home where he can be a part of the action. He loves to check out new places and the people in them. He yearns for human attention and loves to be pet from his head, down his back, to his tail. He loves to climb, play and chase. His current favorite toy is a kitty-sized body pillow that he can grab, tackle and roll with (see video!).  He also loves to chase anything connected to a string. And don’t get him started with a laser toy…he will play and run and play and chase and play…entertaining all around. 

This spirited and good-natured boy has been through a lot. He hasn’t had much practice sharing human attention so it is believed Goodfella will do best in an active household where he can get lots of attention and is the only cat. A slow and thoughtful introduction to a gentle dog in the family may be successful over time. This Goodfella is one of a kind and is looking for his safe, loving, and forever home.  Ready to adopt?
